The president admits the act with a lot of green goodies could have gone by a different name. What are they celebrating . Like i said, the Inflation Reduction Act didnt bring inflation down. Today we look at what and specifically who did. Prices are down, but price hikes still are not. And a key interest rated just closed at a 15year high. Lets go to Jacqui Heinrich at the white house on the fastmoving developments on who gets credit and whether its a birthday debby down to say its not the white house when it comes to inflation or this Inflation Reduction Act. Jacqui . Hi, neil. Yeah, we got out of the east room where the president held the 1year anniversary celebration. It was a classic joe biden event. He whispered at one point, yelled at another point. He said the Inflation Reduction Acted is working. He called it a key part of bidenomics, touting jobs creation, specifically in manufacturing and new investments in climate, even though he didnt get in to the fact that now the estimat
will: yet another installment today on our way to easter. pete: making our way to easter. there he is he will be joining us at the top of the hour and at the bottom of the faith and friends concert series and that opening shot clarksville, tennessee just outside fort campbell, so everyone in the 101st airborne good morning, hope you re watching. will: it was an army base of knowledge or i m a new tennesseen? pete: that s army base of knowledge combined with the tennesseen getting his bearings abdomen wanted to show it off a little bit. rachel: we re super-impressed. pete: thank you. will: we have to get to news starting with a fox weather alert. it s now 26 people who are dead after historic outbreak of tornadoes in the south. pete: the path of destruction stretching for more than 100 miles leaving communities in ruins. rachel: fox weather correspondent is on the ground in mississippi. robert, good morning. reporter: good morning to you. the sun is up here this morning in the
Be planning any new messaging scheme for this. take a listen. polls keep showing that people are broadly unhappy with the president s handling of inflation in particular. the president has said he wished he didn t call this the inflation reduction act. what should you call it? he said following that sentiment because i think it s a complicated bill. we have already seen costs coming down for consumers on the healthcare side through utility rebates on the energy side. at one point about this to keep following is the administration touts the prescription drug negotiating part of the ira is one of the most popular provisions of this plan. right now it s the subject of a barrage of lawsuits. there s a risk that this could end up going the way of the student loan forgiveness plan and getting killed in the courts basically. i asked karine jean-pierre how confident the why house is this
To both the education side, the healthcare side, even retirement, and, you know, i have a lot of fond memories from that being my first real big corporate job, other than working, mowing lawns and things like that like a normal teenager and the thing is jobs like that really should be the kind of things that we see a lot of people go into at that stage of life. the idea that they re going to be kind of in the lifetime of that job is not necessarily the case. it s not likely to be the case, but it s important that they take the values and experience of having to get up super-early, coming home, smelling like stale coffee and that kind of thing and take the experience and learn and gain from it. i think that this whole protest is very ridiculous. starbucks is already a very generous company when it comes to the way they pay people and i think this is something that really should be an example of how we ve taken away a lot of these entry level jobs that have been very valuable for people
At this point, neil, have they not just stated by their actions they re more in favor of right-wing politics, the kind of desantis-style ring-wing politics than in saving lives? they don t care if this causes less people to die, clearly. martha: is that the take-away from the opinions that were written by these justices? parentally. actually, it s more complex than that. the second ruling as you pointed out, cavanaugh sided with john roberts that sided with the liberal justices multiple times on the healthcare side. it s more mixed than that. this is the supreme court version of deathsantis. if you don t do what they like, if you side on the side of freedom, you must be wanting to kill people. like sotomayor and kagan don t have left wing views. we knew who they were when they got appointed. elections have consequences.
