If you can time the shot right. Welcome to meet the press daily, im Chuck Todd on a very busy september tuesday. This is going to be a september to remember politically, thats for sure. President biden wrapped up his first address to the u. N. General assembly this morning, questions about Americas 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 theres Inter Party divisions to navigate. Its not hyperbole, its 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 youre Joe Pesci from My Cousin Vinnie what do you do you want to put on this truck. Seems like leadership is betting they can u
welcome to mtp daily. i m chuck todd. congress appears ton track to avoid one looming disaster for a period of time. once it passes a very short-term agreement to avoid a default. but there s a bigger threat to democracy that congress and the country is attempting to grapple with right now, the lies of donald trump, about our elections, and the platforms and people who are embracing them or amplifying them. the senate judiciary committee today released hundreds of pages of evidence, documents and transcripts, compiled as part of a report on the former president s attempts to pressure the justice department to overturn the 2020 election. the testimony includes new details about just how frighteningly close we were to a full-blown constitutional crisis as the former president tried desperately to cling to power. the former acting attorney general jeff rosen confirm that president trump desperately wanted a loyalist who believes his lies about the election to run the justice d
that s been the republican line. now, an actual default would not only hurt president biden it would rattle wall street and risk spreading broader turmoil in the u.s. economy during a sensitive time in this recovery that we re all living through. and i mention that because that may be why all the pressure just started really getting to republican leaders like mitch mcconnell. he is making news tonight as the first to apparently blink in this standoff. i m going to show you exactly what s happening and some of the clues as to why. the context is republicans had said that democrats would have to tackle the debt all on their own or face this potentially cataclysmic default. tonight, mcconnell backing down partly saying he will at least delay all of this until december. mcconnell, of course, brags that he s the grim reaper, but apparently he thought about this and thought better of killing the u.s. credit rating, and move came pretty quickly today. the times reporting it shows mc
