if you can time the shot right. welcome to meet the press daily, i m chuck todd on a very busy september tuesday. this is going to be a september to remember politically, that s for sure. president biden wrapped up his first address to the u.n. general assembly this morning, questions about america s credibility and leadership on the world stage, at least trying to answer some of those questions. we will bring you more on his address, the reaction to it in just a moment. we want to start here in washington. the president and his democratic allies are facing a tangled web of legislation, urgent deadlines and there s inter party divisions to navigate. it s not hyperbole, it s just a fact that the biden agenda, the progressive vision, infrastructure, future of the democratic party, health of the economy, fate of a government shutdown they have all been intertwined. if you re joe pesci from my cousin vinnie what do you do you want to put on this truck. seems like leaders
