postseason hitters ever? it s way too early for this. good morning and welcome to way too early, the show that has a policy to always leave for rome as soon as possible. i m jonathan lemire on this thursday, october 28th. we ll start with the news. president biden is expected to make an appearance at this morning s house democratic caucus meeting. before leaving for europe, the president will push for the house to pass the bipartisan infrastructure bill. two people familiar with the news say they re using it as leverage to get the larger social spending bill passed, but progress is slow, and the white house wants a win to tally overseas. the meeting could push back the president s flight to europe, but white house press secretary jen psaki said, quote, there was lots of flexibility built into the president s schedule. his first stop tomorrow is with pope francis followed by french president emmanuel macron. he met with joe manchin and kyrsten sinema for two hours y
blast the group had blocked the road leading to the service. no one has yet claimed responsibility for the attack. it comes as top military officials here at home have repeatedly warned of an increased terror threat from afghanistan since the u.s. troop withdrawal. benjamin hall is live with what we know so far. benjamin. reporter: yeah, hi, arthel. what is so significant as you both pointed out is that this is an attack which was carried out on the taliban in the center of kabul and it comes after so many experts have been warning that with the taliban taking over, this is what might happen. chaos ensues and the country could head towards a civil war. we ve already seen attacks like this increase you across the country and there s a growing suggestion that other terror groups are being emboldened. this is what poses a major threat to the u.s. the blast on sunday as you say struck near the entrance of the mosque in kabul and it targeted a memorial service for the mother of
Are going to vote on this bill. they re going to support it, and you may now you have my blessings to move forward and it s going to happen. and i think that that is the only way that president biden is able to seal this deal and convince the progressives they re not going out on a limb. but absent that, i don t see how there s a vote today. thank you for that. i should note you contributed to the why are you up way too early. you were up in support of the $500,000 raised for breast cancer. and the bad news babies. thanks, leann caldwell.
Who have been good so far this year never trailed against the clippers on the way to a victory last night. it marks cleveland s first road win since march 20616. now let s go to the nhl and boston where the hot start for florida panthers continued last night with a 4-1 win over the bruins. the pap thers are now the 14th team in league history to start the season, 17-0. i would note i made a request for more hockey highlights during that segment. i love the nhl. i did not expect a bruins defeat. thanks, guys. time now for the weather. let s go to meteorologist bill karins with the forecast. bill, how are we looking out there with halloween approaching? we re still recovering from yesterday. i ve got amazing pictures. wait till you see this tornado footage from orange county yesterday. this tornado wasn t on the ground for a long time. it looks like your average tornado. suddenly it gets stronger, picks
