later, the white house had to walk that back. that's just the president's personal opinion, he wasn't trying to steer doj in any certain direction. but of course they're pleased to see this. there was the fear that congress would lose their place as a coequal part of the government. and now, the charges for bannon, which they believe are good, not just to get to the bottom of what happened on january 6th, but also to send the message that this can't happen again. bannon has embraced this. he seems to be willing to be a maga martyr, and perhaps willing to face prosecution and even prison time. but it's not clear that others in the trump orbit will do the same. now, the sights are on mark meadows who realizes he could face similar charges if he does not cooperate. >> dan, let's talk about mark meadows. what should the legal advice be that a guy like mark madows is receiving right about now? >> the legal advice is, you have to show up. there's no excuse for not showing up. recently, a district court dealt with this in the mcgahn cas

if i read that correctly, is the white house advocating for law breaking? >> reporter: well, they're certainly encouraging it, i think. todd and carley, it's game on after numerous lawsuits that prompted the federal appeals court to issue the stay on the administration's requirement for workers at companies with at least 100 employees to get the shot or face weekly testing. but the doj is fighting back in a filing, saying, quote, the occupational safety and health administration a's detailed analysis of the impact shows that a stay would likely cost dozens or hundreds of lives per day but by contrast it's speculative and remote and don't outweigh the interest of protecting employees from a dangerous virus, this as the white house is encouraging businesses to ignore the stay. >> we think people should not wait. the administration clearly has the authority to protect workers and actions announced by the president are designed to save lives and stop the spread of covid-19. >> reporter: but one restaurant group ceo warns this could put people out of business. >

this is, this is a third rail for the white house. it is what knocked out jimmy carter out of office. inflation is political strychnine. reagan won in a landslide. now claiming that you know, first we went from claiming that spending costs zero, nothing, to saying that spending fixes inflation, to saying inflation is a gadd -- good thing. now pete buttigieg is saying highways, the way they were constructed and design are racist. we have the "washington post," you know, fact checker glen kessler saying that is wrong. historians and academics already debunked that. >> this administration is so out of touch with real -- reality. they care more about definitions of words than problems facing americans. we have an inflation crisis. we saw today, inflation year to year 6.2% increase. since joe biden has become president as of january 20th, inflation has hit 7.4%. that is the highest in 40 years. that means that every american is having to spend more, just to put food on their table. it is unacceptable but they care more about racist bridges

bolten: you call the white house operator. tara: and then they walk over to the room and knock on his door? mr. lew: all the time. mr. bolten: i also had to wake up the president a few times. he is a heavy sleeper. [laughter] he is really focused and intentional about his sleeping. he still goes to bed at 9:30 and is up at 5:15 without an alarm clock. so you did not do that lightly, but i did a few times. sometimes involving a disaster or national security situation. more times than any of us would like to admit it would have involved one of his daughters, or at the time, in college -- who were at the time in college. i didn't get grief from the president about that kind of stuff. if a member of the congressional leadership or a cabinet officer said that they wanted to see the president and i didn't think that it was a good idea i would not debate it with the president . i would tell them. i don't think this is worthy of the president's time. i will put the request through if you insist, but i'm telling you now that i will tel

house operating costs some of the white house has said it's tightening its belt and is not replacing employees that have left. obviously the communications department is one of them. but there are a whole host of offices that are dealing with it. they're hoping to alleviate it once the new funding is passed hopefully by congress early next month. but this is not unusual in terms of the departures. what is they haven't been able to hire anyone to replace them. communications is important as they try to sell the infrastructure story bill. as you mentioned, 2024 is a concern with a 79-year-old president that the democrats are trying to sort through. they want to have deference to the president. he's signaled both privately and publicly he's running for re-election, but dhaunlt stop the parlor game. right now preliminary plants are under way to make sure he and the party are in a position should he choose to run in 2022. that does not stop the chatter, what does it look like for an 82-year-old to run for re-election. >> tyler pager, thank you for being here. >>> we're going to dive into

house, these groups that were working outside of the white house, the trump campaign, these other groups stopped steal, other organizations that could perhaps build this case of a coordinated effort to try to drum up all of this angst across the country related to the election that then served as the precursor to what p happened on january 6th. clark did show up to be interviewed by the january 6th select committee but once in the room he doesn't answer questions. he couldn't because of executive privilege and attorney client privilege, a lot of legal experts believe those claims probably don't have a lot of merit. the committee is taking the step and will move quickly with a business meeting. it could be voted on the house floor as soon as thursday and will be in the hands of the department of justice. >> i want to ask you moving this forward more because we're waiting to hear ryan from the national archives and have to turnover the records from the white house. tomorrow the appeals court will hear the former president's case so what do you expect there? >> yes, so this is a key step in

this is the white house trying to go on a tour. he will be in detroit tomorrow trying to convince americans, look at what we did for you. i think we're going to see more tweets like that. >> and coming right off your point, peter, a question that doesn't call for a judgment on your part but rather the democrats you're talking to by way of your daily reporting, is there still a messaging deficit? if you live in kingsburg, new jersey or iowa, are you any closer to knowing what you are going to get? i guess we know that new hampshire is getting a bridge and ohio is getting a bridge. but is there still that deficit? >> well, they're not going to accomplish this just in one or two days after the bill signing, right? this is going to, for them, have to be a sustained effort to sell this program to the public. now, they start off with an advantage, which is the public is generally for it. the last abc washington post poll showed that 63% of americans supported it. they want new bridges and they want their ports and airports and broadband.

alice got married at the white house. but she was older than -- there was really two kids living in the white house, and that was ethel and quentin and they were there all the time. it was a zoo. a zoo of animals and kids. and tr loved having them coming into the office -- meetings in the office and they would run in and they would interrupt secretaries of stays in order to try to tell their dad about some bug that they found on the white house lawn. >> humanizing, isn't it? and alice married a man who became speaker of the house and so many of us have used the line, if you can't say something nice about somebody, come sit right here next to me. here's another question. roosevelt was the most prolific of presidents who were authors. which of his books is the most significant of his writings? >> that's a good question. and there's no easy answer because he wrote probably 50 books not all original monographs, compilations and things like that. one book stands out to me and that's called the winning of the west which is a th

the white house sees a turning point and democrats, well, they better hope that's right. a cnn poll releasing right now finds a majority disapprove of the president's job performance and nearly six in ten americans say the president is not focusing enough on the country's biggest problem. plus, the biggest question in the world. are we close to the end of the covid pandemic? today word pfizer wants the okay to offer vaccine boosters to all adults. >>> and former president obama visits the global climate summit and throws some shade at donald trump. >> we've got our contentious battle. it's one of the things about democracy it turns out you don't always get your way. my successor maybe wasn't as interested in climate science as i was it turns out, but there are a lot of people in the u.s. government who care about this deeply and work really hard and are invested. >> we begin the hour though with the current president and the giant turnaround challenges he faces between now and the mid-term elections exactly one year from today. our brand new cnn poll releasing right now s

the white house. arlette saenz, a big victory for the president, not to the finish line but he can see it now. >> after months of cajoling and negotiating this is a major breakthrough for president biden's economic agenda. president biden spoke by phone with house speaker nancy pelosi today to offer her congratulations, and they also released a statement, the white house released a statement from the president celebrating this win. that statement says today the united states house of representatives passed the build back better act to take another giant step forward in carrying out my economic plan to create jobs, reduce costs, make our country more competitive and give working people and the middle class a fight chance. the white house hopeful that this bill will make good on some of the campaign promises that biden made back in 2020, but they are also keenly aware of the steep climb that this bill will face in the senate as there are expected to be major changes made to the bill in order to win supp

and a democrat will be in the white house. so, it's not so much about the policies you put forward, it's the virtue of fighting standing up for what we believe in. that is what the republican party has lacked previous to donald trump becoming the president. they got to get that spirit and they have got to stop these investigations. they have got to stop this politicized department of justice in the biden administration that is sending out indictments for people who don't show up to congress to testify about a commission that is unhistoric, uncongressional, unamerican, and should end. they have got to stand up to the abuses coming from the biden administration. that is what will spur them to an even more seats next year. >> 15 seconds before we have it go. a lot of democratic retirements. are there any possibilities that republicans flip some of those seats? >> absolutely. one of the reasons -- some of them are in very blue districts. and they are quitting because they know they are going to lose their gavels and power. this is

the white house weary to jump into all of this. but is simply does not have a good look and we're seeing the effects in the country. >> it is having an impact. thank you very much. just ahead, democrats clearly clashing over president biden's spending bill as nancy pelosi urge entsly pushed for a vote. we'll get the latest on the state of play from the top house progressive, congresswoman pramila jayapal is standing by live. we'll discuss when we come back. everything you've seen me do was made possible by what you don't see. cause when you're not looking, i go to work. ♪ strength isn't a given. it's grown. it's earned and tested. ♪ we all have the strength to see what's possible. it's up to us to unlock it. tonal. be your strongest. step up. prep up. to help keep you free from the risk of hiv. descovy for prep. a once-daily prescription medicine... ...that helps lower the chances of getting hiv through sex. it's not for everyone. descovy for prep has not been studied in people assigned female at birth. talk to your doctor to f

steve bannon was not a current white house official. he had been out of the way out since 2017 and we are not talking about the official business of the president. what we're talking talking about is investigating a crime which was the insurrection at the capitol. what does all of that say about the strengths of steve bannon skates? is there a big difference between his case and that, let's say, a former white house academic chief of staff mark meadows? >> doug: mark meadows is going to see what his executive privilege and what is not. we don't know his answers but that's were going to find out. steve bannon does not have those protections. when i worked in the house of representatives for then majority leader, they held that then attorney general and contempt for not appearing before congress. congress takes things very seriously. when you're talking about a republican house or democratic house, the primacy of congress and its oversight is terrible. republicans and democrats should be able to unify on this. they obviously won't, but if
