>> Todd: "NEW YORK TIMES" URGING
PRESIDENT BIDEN TO GIVE UP HIS
RE-ELECTION DREAM CLAIMING
DEMOCRATS NEED TO NOMINATE A
DIFFERENT CANDIDATE IN 2024.
>> Ashley: IT MAY NOT BE AS
SIMPLE AS SELECTING VICE
PRESIDENT KAMALA HARRIS TO RUN.
>> SHE SHOULD HAVE BEEN
POSITIONED POWERFULLY AND BEEN A
PERSON THAT CAN LEAD AND SHE’S
BEEN IN THE BACK.
>> THE PRIMARY IS WIDE OPEN AND
IT IS NOT JUST KAMALA HARRIS’S
TO TAKE.
>> Todd: JOE CONCHA JOINS US
NOW.
HAPPY MONDAY.
YOUR REACTION TO THE LATEST
ITERATION OF JUMPING SHIP, WE
SEEM TO TALK ABOUT EVERY TWO
DAYS OR SO.
>> Joe: IT FEELS THAT WAY.
I THOUGHT THE INFLATION
REDUCTION ACT WOULD CHANGE AND
TURN EVERYTHING AROUND.
AS WE SAW ON THE SUNDAY SHOWS
YESTERDAY, IT IS SPECULATION
ABOUT ELECTION THAT IS NOT
OCCURRING FOR ANOTHER 28 MONTHS.
I CAN NEVER REMEMBER AN
ADMINISTRATION THAT HAS BEEN IN
OFFICE 19 MONTHS HAVING THIS
MUCH SPECULATION AROUND WHETHER
A PRESIDENT IS RUNNING FOR
RE-ELECTION ON HOW HIS VICE
PRESIDENT IS NOT PREPARED FOR
THE JOB.
BUTTIGIEG AND THE AIRLINE
INDUSTRY IS WORST SHAPE WE’VE
SEEN UNDER THIS TRANSPORTATION
INDUSTRY.
GAVIN NEWSOM AND ELIZABETH
WARREN, CORY BOOKER, BETO
O’ROURKE.
THE DEMOCRATIC PARTY DOES NOT
WANT JOE BIDEN TO RUN.
THE PROBLEM IS BACK FILL AIN’T
THERE AND AGAIN THE FACT THAT
WE’RE TALKING ABOUT THIS SHOWS
HOW MUCH DISARRAY THE DEMOCRATIC
PARTY IS GOING INTO THE
MIDTERMS, GUYS.
>> Ashley: THE CNN POLL, CNN IS
CHANGING TUNE ON THE HUNTER
BIDEN STORY.
TAKE A LISTEN.
>> WHAT ABOUT HUNTER?
HUNTER UNDER FEDERAL
INVESTIGATION, CHARGES COULD BE
COMING AT ANY TIME.
THIS IS A REAL PROBLEM FOR THE
BIDENS, COULD HE DECIDE NOT TO
RUN FOR RE-ELECTION GIVEN HIS
SON?
>> Ashley: OH, BOY, SO WHAT DO
YOU -- I DON’T KNOW WHAT TO SAY,
JOE, I WILL HAND IT TO YOU.
>> Joe: YEAH, ASHLEY, HERE IS
THE THING, THE SAME CNN MEDIA
CORRESPONDENT SAID IN 2022 ABOUT
THIS NETWORK THAT FOX CONTINUES
TO COVER THIS STORY AND RUIN
CREDIBILITY BY DOING SO, THIS
STORY BEING THE HUNTER BIDEN
STORY.
HE SAID THE COUNTRY HAD MOVED ON
IN DECEMBER 2020 FROM THE HUNTER
BIDEN STORY.
HE SAID ABOUT FOX, THEY WANT YOU
TO STAY MAD AND STAY TUNED,
CALLED IT A MANUFACTURED SCANDAL
TO SPARK WHAT ABOUTISM, THE
WORDS OF BRIAN STELTSER WHEN
THIS STORY BROKE BY THE "NEW
YORK POST" AND NOW HE’S
PRETENDING HE NEVER SAID THESE
THINGS AND THINK IT COULD BE A
PROBLEM FOR THE PRESIDENT IN
2024.
WELCOME TO THE PARTY, PAL, WE’VE
BEEN TALKING ABOUT THIS FOR
SOMETIME AND DON’T PRETEND YOU
TRIED TO DISMISS THIS STORY AS
MANUFACTURED SCANDAL AND NOW YOU
HAVE A NEW BOSS AND HE’S TRYING
TO KEEP HIS JOB BY TALKING ABOUT
THE STORY THE WAY IT SHOULD BE
TALKED ABOUT, WHICH IS YES, IT
IS REAL.
THERE IS A FEDERAL INVESTIGATION
COMING ON AND HUNTER BIDEN COULD
BE A LIABILITY FOR THE
PRESIDENT.
>> Todd: I WILL GO SEINFELD,
THIS IS BIZARRE WORLD SHOULD BE
EATING AND DOING THAT SEGMENT AT
REGGIE’S LAST HOUR JAMES COMER
CALLING OUT THE INTEL COMMUNITY
FOR IGNORING HUNTER BIDEN’S
DEALINGS IN 2020.
>> THIS GUY IS A CROOK, THE
INTELLIGENCE COMMUNITY BEFORE
ELECTION SAYS THIS IS RUSSIAN
DISINFORMATION, ANOTHER BAD HIT
LIKE THE STEELE DOSSIER, ANOTHER
BAD HIT AND WE NEED TO MAKE
CHANGES.
>> Todd: JOE, PRESUMABLY HUNTER
BIDEN WILL NOT GET A CONTRIBUTOR
POSITION, ALTHOUGH DON’T PUT IT
PAST HIM.
A NUMBER OF CONTRIBUTORS ARE
NUMBERS OF THE INTEL COMMUNITY.
DO THOSE PEOPLE REMAIN
CONTRIBUTORS OR PER BRIAN
STELTSER, IS THIS A BIG DEAL
NOW?
>> Joe: I HAVE A WHOLECHAPTER IN
BOOK COMING OUT NEXT MONTH.
NOT JUST ABOUT THE GUY WHO RAN
THE CIA OR THE FBI, AFTER THEY
LEFT THEIR RESPECTIVE POSITIONS
AND WENT INTO THE PRIVATE
SECTOR, TALKING ABOUT JAMES COMEY OR JOHN BRENNAN OR
COMEY OR JOHN BRENNAN OR
CLAPPER, THEY WENT TO CNN OR
MSNBC, SHOWED HOW BIAS THEY ARE
AND YOU CAN’T TELL THE
DIFFERENCE BETWEEN RACHEL MADDOW
AND CHRIS HAYES OR STELSER OR
COMEY WHEN TALKING ABOUT THE
TRUMP PRESIDENCY, THAT SHOULD BE
DISTURBING, INTELLIGENCE CHIEFS
WHO ARE SUPPOSED TO BE UNBIASSED
AND APOLITICAL SHOWED TO BE
ANYTHING BUT.
WHEN THEY HAD TO MAKE MONEY,
REALLY POURED IT ON AND IF THAT
IS PEOPLE RUNNING OUR
INTELLIGENCE AGENCY WE HAVE
PROBLEMS IF THEY ARE LOOKING AT
THEIR POSITION AS SOMETHING THEY
CAN WEAPONIZE AGAINST A CERTAIN
CANDIDATE.
ASHLEY, YOU LOVE HEAT AND
HUMIDITY?
WOW.
>> Ashley: I’M WEIRD, I’LL
ADMIT.
THE LOS ANGELES TIMES IS URGING
JOE BIDEN TO USE EXECUTIVE POWER
TO DECLARE A NATIONAL CLIMATE
EMERGENCY, HERE IS THE QUOTE
FROM THE PIECE.
IT IS TIME BIDEN ADOPTED ALL
HANDS ON DECK APPROACH, LITTLE
CHANCE WE’LL LOOK BACK AND SAY
THE PRESIDENT DID TOO MUCH.
THIS COMES AFTER THEY PASSED
BILLIONS OF DOLLARS IN INFLATION
REDUCTION ACT, WHAT DO YOU THINK
OF THIS?
>> I’LL BE QUICK, UNTIL RUSSIA
OR INDIA OR CHINA PARTICULARLY
DOES THEIR PART TO FIGHT CLIMATE
CHANGE, THEN WHATEVER WE DO ON
SOME SORT OF NATIONAL LEVEL, IT
WILL HAVE NEGLIGIBLE IMPACT.
THE WORLD NEEDS TO COME
TOGETHER, UNTIL THEY DO, IT WILL
