they already locked in john fetterman. you can't go back and that has major invocations not just for the senate race but for our country. >> carley: the fracking moment alone was really bad for john fetterman pray that should be an automatic answer no matter what. he said he didn't support fracking and now he says that he does. the major stumbled from him at a time when there is oil and gas issues, there are issues with the economy. i thought it was not a he was able to answer really tell questions on the gun-control bill that passed. he was asked if he would support it and he said, you know, there are parts of it i really do like, but i'd improve other parts on abortion. i'd never support a federal ban on anything and said if i'm senator i'm not going anywhere. fetterman try to dig him that he is wealthy and out of touch and doctor's really needed that bite saying, you know what, fetterman, so are you. you come from a very wealthy family. >> todd: you mentioned fracking fit let's bring in former keystone xl pipeline worke

we've never had a single tough interview with john fetterman. we got close with dasha barnes, i believe her name is, and she was excoriated for observing the truth and telling the truth about what she saw in john fetterman. my question to you is, do you think the people of pennsylvania now understand they're getting the health issues aside, how radical he is? >> they're getting the message, which is why we're tied and completely tied now as we head into the last 13 days and please go to doctoroz.com and chip in to fight the war. we'll win this election and that's what she just asked. they were unable to defend them and maybe throwing their hands up and say this guy's not like us and out of touch with us and i'm a heart surgeon as you know, we fix big problems, the heart, and by working together and uniting people, not dividing them. what john fetterman does is take extremism to washington and can't work with people and wasn't get things down. i want balance because with balance you bring people together and get democrats and republicans and inst

you can count on john fetterman. make sure he can count on you. >> tucker: it all goes back to that one issue. it always does. why is that? fetterman's candidacy, like joe biden's candidacy two years ago, tells us something dark about the democratic party. the what it tells us the democratic party has such contempt for voters and for democracy itself and so much confidence in its ownership of the media and of big tech that it no longer has to try to win your votes. democrats can run raphael warnock, an aggressively fake christian pastor, whose wife detailed abuse allegations against him on camera, and that's okay. still good enough for a senate seat in georgia, because the machine keeps working. it's not about the person. it's about the party. it's not about the individual. it's about the group. and to prove it, they can even run mentally defective candidates who can barely speak. not only expect them to win, but expect you to accept the outcome no matter how transparently absurd it is. on november 9th, they will be

john fetterman and dr. oz take stage for one and only what could be deciding factor debate in pennsylvania last night. we'll have highlightings and low lights. also in empire state, governor kathy hochul and lee zeldin duke it out over crime in fiery exchange, how violence could sway the vote. kayleigh mcenany will join us live and michigan gubernatorial candidates sparring over school closure and tudor dixon on her debating performance, she'll join us after working last night on stage. douglas murray and clay travis, busy wednesday morning on the number one cable news show. put down that remote, carley and todd will be back, you are watching "fox and friends first." if you wanna go fast, go faster. and if you got the devil on your shoulder... take him for a ride. an unthinkable genocide took the lives of six million jews and thousands of jewish survivors are still suffering in poverty today. god calls on people who believe in him to act on his word. "comfort ye, comfort my people." when i come here and i s

john fetterman was valiant in his efforts. he tried his best to answer the questions that were asked. mr. oz did not. and i want to give that credit to john fetterman for trying to do his best under a certain set of circumstances that were not favorable for him, but he gave a valiant effort. i admire what john fetterman trying to do tonight. and mr. oz should be ashamed of himself for the things that he said, the position that he is taken. he has no legitimacy in this race. he parachuted into pennsylvania. he's trying to steal a seat. and it's really despicable what he's doing. >> not only did he parachute in, he left god's country, new jersey, who would do that? john micek, michael nutter, think you are joining tonight. when we come back, we're talking kanye west. finally facing new consequences for his antisemitism. but he has a long history of hate. why face consequences now? when the 11th hour continues. he 11th hour continues ah, these bills are crazy. she has no idea she's sitting on a goldmine. well she doesn't know tha

john fetterman wasn't able to respond. he wasn't really able to give a good opening statement or closing statement which has nothing to do with response. look, a fundamental part of this job is engaging in dialogue. it's engaging on the senate floor. it's with constituents and advisers. it's picking up the phone when a regulator is treating one of your constituents unfairly and making the case for why they've got to be fair to your constituents. that's so it requires that you be able to communicate two way orally. you have to do it. it's a fundamental part of the job. unfortunately for john, he's just -- he's not there. >> martha: you know, about 635,000 votes have already been mailed in in pennsylvania of the i think 1.3 million that requested mail-in ballots. so you have a lot of vote that is already in. the fetterman team wanted this debate to happen as late as possible. what is the impact of that, senator? >> well, let's be honest. they didn't want to debate at all. they ended up reluctantly agreeing to one debate very

oz and john fetterman john fetterman go head-to-head. >> and the statements on fracking. >> i don't support fracking and i stand but i do support fracking. >> we have to get the truth out here. >> governor hochul and challenger lee zeldin traded jabs about the crime. >> we are talking about actually walk there locking up criminals. >> it has consequences but i don't know why that is so important. >> the subway tracks in new york city. >> eric adams to do more in the crime telling "the new york post" everybody is talking the talk but nobody is walking the walk. >> executive jennifer say a covid denier, the management gave her a choice to shut up or leave. >> that made me unemployable. >> what team is that? >> read. >> we are going to go see them. >> we are going to take you in the stadium. ♪ ♪ >> 13 days until the midterm elections. three big debates around the country last night, pennsylvania, new york, michigan >> steve: today, we are doing essentially the postgame show. >> that's right. >> steve: who won, who lost because so many people tuned in to watch those six people at different

dan and i feel bad for john fetterman and not knocking john fetterman. we want him to get better. that's how bad it is. we are not even making fun of democrats here. we are feeling bad for them. >> jesse one more thing, quick. democrats do think you are idiots. but how about whitmer saying that she only close evidence down the schools for three months as if the parents who saw their kids at home are -- hey, hey, tony, who is it kid in the kitchen? is that our son? gretchen whitmer says he is in school. this is how dumb democrats think you are. only closed the schools three months? really i saw little bobby in my kitchen on zoom who do you think that was the neighbor's kid? >> jesse: running around the kitchen felt like three months. >> they think you are stupid. >> jesse: of course. dan bongino, who went to graduate school. >> shockingly. [laughter] >> jesse: check his show out on saturday nights. thanks, dan. >> thanks, man. see you. >> jesse: there is a psycho with a pick ax who is breaking into houses. ♪ ♪ >> jesse: have you ever met a parent that can't say no to their kid?

she did ask a follow-up, how do we know your machine isn't going to break, john fetterman? can we see a doctor's report on this? here's you how that exchange went. >> can you do this job on day one? >> of course. >> so you're say you're on the road to full recovery. but right now voters really have to take your word for it. we've asked for your medical records. we've asked to have a conversation with someone from your medical team to interview your physician. you've declined those requests. why? >> i feel we have been very transparent in a lot of different ways, when our doctor has already given a letter saying i'm able to serve, and to be running. >> i mean, respectfully that letter from your physician, that was six months ago. don't voters deserve to know your status now? >> being in front of thousands and thousands of people, having interviews and getting around all across pennsylvania, that gives everybody and the voters, they can decide if that's the issue. >> tucker: he's reading that off a screen. by the way, we're taking him at his word that there's not a staffer ba

sheth does not treat john fer fetterman. what's the political side of this and is this what comes out throughout the debate? >> yeah, i'm not a neurologist, so i'm not going to speak to lieutenant governor's mental fitness. a debate like that is not a natural setting for john fetterman under the best of circumstances. the rapid fire format, 60-second questions, 30-second questions requires a candidate to speak on their feet. and the ability to speak in depth to the extent of his recovery, but if you look at the polling while voters may determine fetterman's fitness, issues like crime and abortion loom far larger. >> one of the halting moments when john fetterman was asked about fracking. take a listen. >> you say tonight you supported fracking that you always supported fracking. there was that 2008 interview where you said, quote, i don't support fracking at all. so, how do you square the two? >> i do support fracking. and i don't -- i don't -- i support fracking. and i stand. and i do support fracking. >> julia, when you he

>> i have tremendous compassion for what john fetterman's going through. i mean, not only do i, as a doctor, appreciate the challenges, but i know his specific ailment, because it's a specialty area of mine. >> reporter: would you ever talk to your patients like this? >> no. >> reporter: he criticizes fetterman for not releasing his medical records while fetterman accuses dr. oz of not being transparent on abortion rights. this is what he told us this week. >> dr. oz likes to make fun of me that i might miss a word, but he's missed two words, and that is a yes or no on the national abortion ban. >> reporter: so, we asked him about republican senator lindsey graham's bill that would ban abortions after 15 weeks. if you win, you're going to be a colleague of his and have to vote on bills like this. can you tell us right now, yes or no on that bill? >> i'm giving you a bigger answer. i'm telling you, i don't want any federal rules limiting what states do with abortion. it should up to the states. >> reporter: lester, there was more we wanted to discuss. we ha

anderson to be senator, john fetterman. -- and yours soon to be senator, john fetterman. and we are with one of pennsylvania's proudest sons, president joe biden. everybody here knows joe. joe biden has always stood for what we stand for as democrat, working people, good jobs, fair wages, decency, democracy. i do believe that when you know what you stand for you know what to fight for. we have 11 days to get it done. 11 days, pennsylvania. 11 days until this november's election, and all of those issues that i just mentioned that we stand for are on the ballots. we are here to say we are committed to making each and every day count. we have done this before. we know had to do what we do. we've done it before. remember in november 2020, patriotic pennsylvanians of all ages, races, backgrounds, braved a local -- a global pandemic, stood in line and cast ballots and then you insured every single vote was counted. thank you, josh shapiro. you stood firm against election deniers in this very building. we watched and saw what you were doing. because of a one million -- because o

every day is hollowing for john fetterman. he's a trust fund brat and never had a job most of his life. he never worked. instead, he lived off is very wealthy mommy and daddy and they continue to fund his lifestyle until he was almost 50 including his first job, a part-time gig as the mayor of a small town in pennsylvania called braddock. his sister even chipped in selling fetterman his home for $1. i wish i got that deal. anyway, fetterman was an abject failure by every measure. during his time in office violent crime in that small town went up dramatically. the town's population went down 21%. the median income went down to less than $15000 and fetterman was best known for not showing up at any council meetings because he missed most of them. he also gained notoriety after a cctv footage captured him vandalizing a local african-american owned business. he did this in the middle of the night. even worse, and another bizarre incident, fetterman literally chased down an innocent, unarmed african-american jogger and held a shotg

john fetterman is not fit for office. his radical alarmism would be a disaster in the senate for the great people of pennsylvania. the more people in pennsylvania learn about this guy, the less they like him. he is unelectable and would be a horrible senator. the doctor who cleared fetterman is said he is in good health is a campaign donor. he is not a doctor who treated him for a stroke. fetterman needs to be transparent and release the medical records. let's hear from the doctors that treated your stroke, john. a campaign donor doctor and joe biden saying you are capable doesn't cut it. speaking of joey, he thinks that fetterman's wife is running and not john. saying that in pittsburgh. >> john, thank you very much for running. i do appreciate it. you will be a great lady in the senate. >> sean: here with reaction the republican congressman from ohio jim jordan. it's 46-46 in pennsylvania. and blake masters is down by 1 in arizona. i like it for this reasonism hope it cretes urgency in terms of people knowing their vote

john fetterman and dr. mehmet oz in their first and only debate. the real clear politics average of polls show fetterman with a two-point advantage over the republican nominee but the democrats' team is already tempering expectations ahead of tonight's debate saying "he is going to be talking about his real ideas to help real people. but if we are all being honest, oz comes in with a huge built-in advantage." as is done in recent press interviews after suffering a stroke, determine will use closed captioning. dr. oz will see that his opponents' values do not match with those in pennsylvania. vehicle if he had a magic wand to do anything he wanted to see his goal would be to release metaverse from life in prison, releasing murderers without asking the families what they think and often times voting against the other members of the parole board given other democrats is not aligned with the values of pennsylvanians. that's the position he has ta taken. >> here in new york governor kathy hochul holds a six-point advantage over republican challenger lee

again, going back to john fetterman, this is his chance. to show voters that he is more than capable of handling the job. host: you mentioned this being the only debate. there will not be any debates in the closely watched gubernatorial pennsylvania. why is that? guest: they simply have not been able to come to any agreements. doug mastro 90, the far right state senator, republican candidate, has made -- insisted on some changes in debates that have been offered. he is not happy with the moderators. he offered that he would choose one and the democratic candidate shapiro would choose another one but schapiro did not like that. the tradition is candidates do not get to choose their moderators. the host and to ever extremely debates tuesday moderators. they have not come to any agreement to do a debate. the polls consistently show that shapiro was considerably in the lead with 10 points or more. it is probably not in his interest to such a big league -- to get such a big lead because you give your opponent to name points against you. it is so

mehmet oz finds himself down double digits to john fetterman. but lieutenant governor fetterman suffered a stroke. he had to take weeks off the trail. but the lead was so big they thought they could ride it out, stay in the basement and ride it out. but oz continued to campaign. >> telling you that you are not fit to be serve. send us back to new jersey. send me to dv. >> i always thought it was pretty empathetic. emphatic. i am sorry, empathetic. brian: the guy is weak on crime and admits it. >> i'm effective on crime. and i believe in second chances. and i have one on that record. brian: murder one and you murder two is that a time for second chances. he's also against the life blood of the state, fracking. >> the president's team used fracking as a wedge issue. no one cares about it with the pandemic going. i am not pro fracking. i signed the no fossil fuel pledge before the cool kids were doing it in 2015. brian: as usual on the left you are not to believe your eyes or ears. fetterman is fine, his beliefs are mainstream. but the problem is h

and john fetterman hitting on that he is not from pennsylvania. he is a reach -- rich elite hollywood doctor. so they attack each other hard. it is interesting as the last two colors noted that the attacks have never from john fetterman, he really tries to raise this question of turkish citizenship and his relationship to turkey. and i think the last caller is fair. would that have been the same the other way around? with the politics have been the same? with a have been targeted if he was a democratic candidate? i don't have an answer for that but it's an interesting question to look at. host: david on our line for those who live in pennsylvania. david is from pittsburgh. hello. caller: thank you for taking my call. first time caller. i think the turkish issue -- i have seen that issue raised to the media. not directly in the political ads. so that definitely is out there. following up with sharon from andover, the blue dot in the red sea, they had mentioned harrisburg. i think reducing some of the margins in those areas is another possibility pa

john fetterman takes everything to an extreme. and those extreme positions hurt us all. >> all eyes on pennsylvania on a debate in that race that could determine the balance of power in the senate. i'm brianna keilar with alex marquardt this morning. it's great to have you. >> thank you for having me. >> john berman is off today. and democrat john fetterman and republican mehmet oz who you saw there, arguing the issues, also attacking each other in their first and only debate. fetterman addressed his recovery from a recent strokes. he used a closed captioning device for help. the candidates went toe to toe on key issues, like inflation and the economy. >> i can make the difficult decisions as you do in the operating room as a surgeon. i'll do them cutting our budget as well. >> he has never met an oil company that he doesn't swipe right about. he has never been able to stand up for working families across pennsylvania. we must push back. inflation has hurt americans and pennsylvania's families. and it has given the oil companies r

this man is soft on crime, john fetterman. and i think the state of pennsylvania really needs to know that. and just do not vote for him, it is just terrible. i've been going through a murder trial for over 40 years when my husband was murdered and i'm still going through it. john fetterman is not the person, actually the night i was with dr. oz, he's a wonderful man. he is intelligent, well read, knows about the state of pennsylvania. so i think people need to vote for him. >> carley: you mentioned the name of the man who murdered your husband, who was a police officer, murdered in 1981, you were a young couple, i believe you had recently gotten married. he was a well known black panther and here is what one john fetterman appointee had to say about him. i love him, he's my buddy and like an uncle to a bunch of my friends who were on the row with him. yep, philly is exceptionally bad, well, was, we have a good da now. what is your reaction to hearing something like that? >> i think it is just disgusting to hear that. people -

but again, it's the mediad john who cover john fetterman, f who shouldet be the most ashamed. they've known the truth fory on months.e exception, that be with only one exception. me that would be nbc reporter dashkovadi burns. the media lied to voters abouthg it. aboutwe don't know anything abt dash burns, but she at leastherw tried to be sort of honest.e sad here's what she said afterin meeting john fetterman, you'll s spar he also still has some problems, some challenges with speech. and i'llee say, katie, tha say,t in some of the small talk prior to the interview, beforep the closed captioning was upg, and running, it did seem that he had a hard timeur understanding our our conversations. >> oh, that's not allowed tono hear. you have a young reporter really doesn't know the rulesll no matter what you actually see or experience or report, you can't reveal anything that hu mighrtt hurt the fortunes of mit the democratic party that might slow dow sn a team. >> so clearly, dasha burnsdaring hadn't gotten that mem to. and for daring to say that, for rebestly reporting what she s

state of pennsylvania, very close race, john fetterman, under the bus. look, we've had two senators in the past, one a democrat, one a republican. you alluded to it earlier, one from new mexico, one from illinois. mark kirk was not expected, he had a much more severe stroke than john fetterman, and he made a mying rack louse recovery. and the senator from new mexico, he is still in the senate, he suffered a stroke and, of course, the questions are larger than that, howie. are we saying if somebody's in - >> no, that's not a comparable situation. >> why is it not? because he can understand -- [inaudible conversations] >> you don't need to be able to -- >> audio, he's having auditory difficulty -- howard: one at a time. >> i'm sorry, it's not comparable to say a wheelchair means that you can't serve or something like that. no one's saying that. no one his that greg abbott -- >> what about somebody who's blind? >> no, i think it's harder to do it when you're blind, but i don't think that's something that keeps you from doing the job either. but these are al

amy: that last answer, john fetterman. will bunch, have no subject on this subject, "after the ivory tower falls -- you have written a book on this whole subject, "after the ivory tower falls." put what they're saying in context. >> the bottom line is this, both of them could have and should have given a few mor specifics. fetterman supports student debt relief and emmett oz opposes student debt relief. again, if you want to focus on the issues, i think that is the important take away for voters. oz's answer was not good. you get the standard republican trope about -- not trope. college demonstrators are somewhat overpaid. even addressing that problem is only a drop in the bucket when you're talking about the debt crisis, which is $1.7 trillion, which is an astronomical figure. he also said a language should have got more attention, he thought solution to making college more affordable list of more electronic classes. if you are never the height of the covid era, that was the biggest complaint from students and administrat

that john fetterman would not help if he is elected to the senate. certainly would not help the country overall. >> carley: john, real clear politics has fetterman up by three points. how do you feel about dr. oz? he has closed the gap in recent weeks. >> well, dr. oz is a self-made man. he graduated from the university of pennsylvania medical school. he has performed heart operations. and in fact, he has developed a new heart valves with those operations. so, i am very much in favor of dr. oz as our next senator for pennsylvania. >> carley: lastly, before we let you go, president biden will be in pennsylvania tomorrow to campaign for john fetterman. do you think his presence there will advance john fetterman at all when it comes to polling? >> no, because people in pennsylvania equate inflation, higher gas prices at the pump, and, in fact, open borders with president biden. i don't think that will help him at all. >> carley: we are a week away from the big debate between john fetterman and dr. oz october 25th. certainly more to come from this race.

bless john fetterman. ef got up there and i know the talk in d.c., he shouldn't have done it. i was proud of him. he has gone through a tough health challenge. he was out there fighting last night for pennsylvania voters and i think they appreciate that he stood up under very tough circumstances and laid his plans out. and i think for pennsylvania families, as i say, a lot of folks with health issues, they saw him and they were proud of what he did last night. >> but, i mean look, if he was a republican candidate you would not be saying that same message. i mean, clearly you have no concerns about hisable to do the job and even, frankly, the stress and difficulty of the job on his health? >> anderson, i disagree. if that had been a republican who had a stroke and got on stage, i don't care if you are a democrat or republican, you saw a human who last night. they could have said we are not going to done and done paid advertising. he decided not to do it. he stood above politics last night and is the right t

and covered criticism of john fetterman's health. focus on the first one from the times. so what, he is interviewing to be a senator and yes, some jobs you can do while following a stroke, nfl qb and ascertain, where you can't. is the media that desperate to put this in the win column for the democrats? >> joe: can i answer your question with a question, todd? what do people do on the senate floor? debate without a teleprompter and what this is doing is taking away from looking at fetterman's positions, everybody focused on health aspect. he wants to let one-third of the prison population back out on the street and crime is an issue on this race. activism, here it is, you have did shea burns doing her job, reporting saying we sat in the room with fetterman, first reporting crew to do so and this is what i observed as a reporter. she should be commended for not bowing to the mob, which mainly exists on twitter and we saw headlines does seem to answer your question in a long way, the press is doing this to try to protect john fetterman, who is a massive stroke and clearly h

mehmet oz is narrowing the lead against john fetterman. national political reporter for "the washington examiner" is here on that. >> sandra: president biden marking his only midterm campaign trip of the week in a state he won back in 2020 as former boss is taking action, and jumping into campaign mode. bill magern is here, he will join us in a few moments. fanduel and draftkings, two out of state corporations making big promises. what's the real math behind prop 27, their ballot measure for online sports betting? 90% of profits go to the out of state corporations permanently. only eight and a half cents is left for the homeless. and in virginia, arizona, and other states, fanduel and draftkings use loopholes to pay far less than was promised. sound familiar? it should. vote no on prop 27. >> john: a homeowner in texas has a bone to pick with a thief, stole a 14 foot halloween skeleton from their front lawn. security video catching the thief in action at an austin condominium, broad daylight. the skeleton is shoved or tried to be shoved in

that's why john fetterman is here. his campaign knows that the ability to win in november will come through a suburban county like this outside of philadelphia. fred? >> every moment counts, doesn't it. dan merica, thank you so much. >>> in georgia, voters continue to set records for early midterm voting. today marks the first saturday voters can cast their ballots. for more on this, nadia romero is at a polling station in atlanta. so, what is the turnout like today, on this saturday? >> reporter: yeah. well, the turnout has been steady at this location here and fulton county. and that's something that you would expect to see. this is our first saturday to early vote here in the state of georgia, so you come behind me, you can see that people are lining up, just coming out. did you vote? how did it go? >> great. >> reporter: let me see that sticker. >> proud sticker. >> proud sticker. >> reporter: this is the sticker you get after you vote in georgia. ma'am, we're live on air right now. why did you want to vote and be

john fetterman would literally ban their jobs. he would would put them out of k or think about the families who've been devastated by crimeb and by fentanyl here, the keystone state. i mean, when john fetterman wata asked if you had a magic wand, you could have one wish. >> what would it be ? he didn't say like, i would endd our inflation problem or i'dthe bring down the price of gas orpc i'd solve the opioid epidemic i that's killing so many pennsylvanians. i woul he said i would end long sentences for murderers. well, that's in addition to all the murders he's voted to let out of prison. so, yeahout of, there's an absoe sense of urgency here in urge pennsylvania and really across the country. penbecause most americans understand the stakes of this election. nd theif you want a future that is bright and prosperous and safeerous an, for our for f our country, for our children, then you have to vote republican and you have to. help these republicans get elected. you can do that by going to dr.m oz .com and pitching in to make sure

john fetterman even able to fully consent to this campaign?n naturally, the fetterman campaign, they're now blaming t the debate host nexstar for not doing enough to help mitigate veterans mental disability. now, nexstar rightly, flatlyly rejected this accusation in writing that they went to extraordinary lengths to accommodate every one of veterans demands, including the us fette ince of a closed ct teleprompter and to prioress herzl's. . now, this is where it gets even more interesting. many democrats around the country, they are mad .are s they're complaining thatho d fettermaebn even dare to show up to the debate at all.ac they should have kept it hidden . according to a report in the hill, one pennsylvania democratic operative stated, quote, peterman's team never t should have agreed to this debate. s a second democratic operative concurred. >> you see what's happening hereif. if we only hit him ine the basement like we did, joe biden, 2020, we at leastoulb would still have a fighting chance. our odds would be better. they don't care that

john fetterman directly address the elephant in the room. he directly addressed his challenges at the debate last night in harrisburg. and he bluntly said he is still recovering from his stroke. listen to what he said. >> and honestly, of course, to be honest, doing that debate wasn't exactly easy, you know? >> [inaudible]. >> i knew it wasn't going to be easy after having a stroke, after five months, in fact -- >> we love you! >> in fact, in fact, i don't think it has ever been done before in american political history before, actually. you know, after that stroke i got knocked down, but i got back up. >> then he went on to go directly after his rival, mehmet oz. in fact, and a much sharper manner than we saw the debate stage last night. particularly going after him on the question of abortion rights. that has become a central issue here that fetterman campaign released a new ad today focusing on those words about abortion. doctor oz said on the stage last night that local political leader should also have a role in making the decisions for

fetterman, oz wanted more time and john fetterman has been cautious on that. issue of crime, his priorities when president biden went to pennsylvania, he used the opportunity to ask the president to legalize marijuana. that is his one thing. crime, 186 kids shot this year in philadelphia alone. and he's lieutenant governor, in office right now. >> todd: i wonder if the democrats plan is to get john fetterman elected and under -- get to point john fetterman successor if he were to step down early in his reign, we'll see, it's a six-year term. if he gets in by january, and by february can't do the job, that is disingenuous. >> carley: we wish him the best when it comes to the health issues, like dr. mehmet oz said, i feel for him so much as a man, as a patient. oz is a doctor, he says it boils down to if he can serve the people of pennsylvania. >> todd: great point, strokes are no joke, we wish him the best. over to georgia, raphael warnock reportedly evicted disadvantaged tenants in an apartment building owned by his ch church. many of those are veterans and pe

coming up this hour, i will speak to a top john fetterman

fetterm tonight, john fetterman is at trust fund kid. he took money from his parents deep into middle age when he h decided finally what he would like to do with the rest of his life. with thjust to be the us senath pennsylvania. the problem is fade u.s.e inter, and he can now no longer speak. he had a bad stroke and we feel bad about that. everyone does. but because of that stroke,e oft fetterman now needs electronic assistance in order toha communicate with other people. can't talk on his own.. it's not a right wing conspiracy theorist and on its w real effect, it's so real.in hipis campaignra concedecys thas real. that true, fetterman uses a software program to understand the words of those around him and to formulate his responses to those words. >> in other words, to talk. alk. now, to be perfectly clear , this software is not a hearing aid. dea fetterman doesn't need a hearing aid because he isn't deaf, he's not hearing impaired. instead, hearing this program tt words and then rearranges themhe into language that john fetterman can

i think that will be john fetterman. i do think casually in talking to voters, i think there's a lot of empathy for what john has gone through. he had a serious stroke five to six months ago. he is recovering. he has made a pretty solid recovery now versus where he was right after the stroke. don't discount the ability of the electorate and voters to empathize with someone going through a health struggle. the fact of the matter is, we have all experienced that ourselves or through a loved one. >> mayor nutter, to that point, people do have a lot of empathy for anyone who is going through a health issue. one of the things offsetting his campaign though, as rich fitzgerald, the executive was telling me, he was sidelined. he was not out there campaigning, going to halls, to the union halls. he wasn't showing up the way pennsylvanians expect you to campaign. >> well, i think as congressman boyle said, if someone has a significant stroke, there's no legitimate doctor in america that would encourage someone to get back out on

it goes without selling john fetterman does not show fidelity to the crips, obviously. or any game for that matter. but again, it demonstrates that they are trying to find whatever is going to work. they're very focused, republicans, and bringing down the democratic nominee with the single best chance to flip a republican held senate seat. the man on the other end of rvs, john fetterman himself, joins me next. next. so you can... astepro and go. i have moderate to severe plaque psoriasis. now, there's skyrizi. ♪things are getting clearer♪ ♪i feel free to bare my skin♪ ♪yeah, that's all me♪ ♪nothing and me go hand in hand♪ ♪nothing on my skin♪ ♪that's my new plan♪ ♪nothing is everything♪ achieve clearer skin with skyrizi. 3 out of 4 people achieved 90% clearer skin at 4 months. in another study, most people had 90% clearer skin, even at 4 years. and skyrizi is just 4 doses a year, after 2 starter doses. ♪it's my moment, so i just gotta say♪ ♪nothing is everything♪ serious allergic reactions and an increased risk of infections, or a low

john fetterman, even when he was healthy, it was a terrible debater. if you go back and look at the primaries, the primary debates that he had with conor lamb and senator kenyatta, he got his clock cleaned. his debate performance tonight healthy or not healthy is going to be viewed by voters very closely. >> i want to bring in our senior data reporter, harry enten, who's looking at the numbers. , harry what is sticking out to voters in pennsylvania? >> look at this. this looks like a trumper trove. if i was mehmet oz, a think this is fantastic, the very important issues to pennsylvania's midterm votes. the top three issues, economy 82%, inflation 80%, crime, which we have spoken about so much in the segment at 67%. abortion is way down there at 56%. i think that when you look at this report, you get a very good idea of why mehmet oz has been able to close, and close, and close in on john fetterman. that is because the issues that are most important to pennsylvanians are the issues that mehmet oz has been running on. >> harry, how important could -- whe

if john fetterman beats dr. oz, fetterman with a slight lead right now, then democrats chances of keeping the senate go up to 73%, that's a dramatic uptick there, the campaign obviously aware of the stakes for the lieutenant governor tonight. >> reporter: yes, david. and this is a campaign that is also well aware how unusual the circumstances are. not only is control of the senate on the line, but also, their candidate is still recovering after suffering a stroke. but dr. oz facing his own set of challenges. he is one of the most famous television doctors, but his campaign has been under scrutiny for how they've criticized and attacked john fetterman's health. and tonight, dr. oz will be under immerse pressure to strike a more thoughtful tone. david? >> rachel scott, thank you. >>> now, to growing backlash to kanye west's offensive and a anti-semitic remarks. tonight, the biggest corporate sponsor, adidas, has now ended the partnership. tonight, the german-based company and what they're now saying. here's matt g

these ads are coming both from the campaigns of democratic lieutenant governor john fetterman and the republican candidate, who is dr. mehmet oz, the celebrity tv doctor. both of them going after the other one. >> john fetterman wants to release convicted murderers from prison. he appointed a staffer who wants to eliminate mandatory life sentences for first and second degree murderers. we all know fetterman loves free stuff, but we can't let him free murderers. >> i have sat with women who have had to make the difficult choice to get an abortion. it can be traumatic and life altering. but dr. oz calls it murder. judy: dr. oz entered this campaign. he was seen as an outsider, not having spent a lot of time in pennsylvania, also someone presiding over a very divided republican party. but as the months has gone have gone by he's consolidated the party, he has consolidated his support. republicans have put a lot of money into his campaign running these negative ads against john fetterman, accusing him of being soft on crime. now, for his part, john fetterman says that his record as mayor

i think it comes down to john fetterman's positions. i think this issue of crime is really resonating within the commonwealth. john fetterman is going to have to explain himself tonight about why he has voted differently than the democratic attorney general, josh shapiro, running for governor on the board of pardons. they differed over 200 times on votes. i mean, fetterman has votes, you know, to release, you know, convicted murders. one guy who used a garden sheer to stab a victim 26 times and he voted to pardon him. he wrapped himself very closely to bernie sanders. you know, fetterman came out against fracking. in pennsylvania the second largest gas producing state in the country. that's a major issue. so i think fetterman has to kind of walk back some of these extreme positions he has taken, you know, look, we are all sympathetic to him because of his health, but he has to explain this. the question is we are watching to see how he comports himself. we will see how he does tonight with this closed captioning. i think this is a reall

john fetterman said yes. his to potential never answered that question. something as fundamental to pennsylvanians as the retirement security and health care security of social security and medicare. i think the other side is on the same page as republicans that want to privatize or voucherize or destroy these programs. i think there was a measure of clarity. i think a lot of voters connected with what john fetterman was saying. >> do you think the campaign team made a mistake by letting him debate in this format? because in 15 seconds for rebuttal, for instance, you can't get that close captioning rolling in time for him to read it, absorb it and answer. i'm not sure -- a lot of people are saying, why did they agree to this. >> look, i have been in a lot of campaigns. there's always second guessing. i know democrats sometimes are -- kind of invent things to worry about at the end of a campaign. that happens in every campaign. i think it was the right decision to have both candidates appear together and to answer questions. i think john did well in that e

john fetterman does neither of those two things. doesn't speak to voters on the campaign trail or speak to the press while campaigning and he won't speak to me. >> he literally doesn't have a plan, other than to, to talk, and that's been a hallmark of his campaign. just not any plans. just cheap photo ops or just empty kinds of arguments. >> the race for u.s. senate in pennsylvania going down to the require with democrat john fetterman maintaining pretty razor thin lead overt republican mehmet oz. tonight they face-off in their first and only debate of the campaign just two weeks to go until election day. with me now, scott jennings, cnn political commentator and a political calmist and managing editor at axios. gave me a cheat sheet how these candidates who had a long time to prepare for this one and only debate, what they want or need to do when they hit that stage tonight? scott? >> number one, for dr. oz, to connect fetterman to joe biden. if you believe that joe biden sun popular and if you believe he, 45% approval. what we hav
