From Washington: If Not President Biden, Then Who?

President Biden turns 81 this November and many pundits are raising concerns over his age and ability to govern. Robert F. Kennedy Jr. and Marianne Williamson have already thrown their names in the ring as potential contenders against the sitting President, with many Democrat insiders passing around California Governor Gavin Newsom as a viable alternative. Co-Host of The Five, and Democratic Strategist Jessica Tarlov joins to discuss the possibilities she sees for a legitimate contender to rise up against President Biden, how having former President Trump as the Republican nominee would impact the 2024 Election, and why she believes it is fair for voters to question the President's abilities given his age.

While Congress continues its August recess, the Senate will have a significant hurdle to jump once they return in September when approving hundreds of military promotions. One senator has been the gatekeeper in holding up the Senate approvals, Alabama Republican Tommy Tuberville. Senator Tuberville has vehemently denied any promotions due to his opposition to a Pentagon policy of paying for a military service member's travel to get an abortion, which he believes is in direct violation of the Hyde Amendment. FOX News Senior Congressional Correspondent Chad Pergram joins as he lays out the procedure of approving the military appointees, how the Senate may find a workaround to get the service members approved, and weighs in on why Senator Tuberville is choosing this issue to make a political stand.
