Speaker 1 (00:00):
I'm Ryan Gorman with Dana McKay, Jason Bearinger, Briona Torrez,
and Natalie Ronriguez from our newsroom. Coming up this hour,
we'll get to today's forecast with Weather Channel Media ronagist
Jeff Marin before six fifteen. Right after that, we've got
our Bloomberg Business Report. Plus on this Veterans Day, we're
gonna be checking in with a number of different organizations
doing great work here in Florida and across the country.
(00:21):
In this hour, we'll check in with the Florida Veterans Foundation,
so be here for that at six thirty five, And
of course, we give a big thanks to all of
our veterans for their service. We're going to have lots
on Veterans Day throughout the course of the morning. Right now,
let's get to today's top stories with Natalie ron Reguez.
Good morning, Natalie, Good morning.
Speaker 2 (00:42):
Well, sweato weather is here, and Governor Ron Desantas stopped
by the Panhandle to remind everyone to get ready for
the Arctic blast.
Speaker 1 (00:51):
It's a little nippy out. We're getting the frozen tundra tomorrow.
So I would rather be hot than cold, I think,
just as someone born and raised here. It just is
what it.
Speaker 2 (01:01):
Is, temperatures dipping into the twenties and thirties in north
and central Florida into the forties and fifties down south.
The shelters have opened in several counties, providing warm beds
for the homeless and just those that are facing a hardship,
and some of those shelters will be open again later today.
While this cold snap is going to be short lived,
(01:23):
Florida Weather Center Senior meteorologist Chad Merrill believes that we're
going to see another chili change during the end of
Thanksgiving week, and then once.
Speaker 3 (01:31):
We get into December, we're going to see a colder
pattern developed across the United States will have these fronts
dip farther south once again into Florida. So the first
part of the winter will feature some of those fronts
that bring the colder than average temperatures.
Speaker 2 (01:44):
And he does say that early season cold fronts can
be expected when we have a typical week La Nina pattern,
but we can also see a warmer second half of
the winter.
Speaker 1 (01:52):
So there's that I used to feel like I'd rather
be warm than cold, but I gotta tell you these
summers lately, I don't know right in the middle of it,
and compared to this morning. No, I'd much rather have
the heat. I hate the hold.
Speaker 4 (02:09):
Like when I walked outside this morning and just the
wind like bit my face off. No, thank you, I
hate it.
Speaker 2 (02:15):
I can put more do your hair, you walk out
and you're already sweating.
Speaker 1 (02:19):
Yeah, I can put more on, but you know, unless
you want to get sighted by law enforcement, you can
only take so much off when you got in public,
the sweat and everything. Now, the question was would there
be records broken? And I'm not going to make this
declaration like an official declaration, but I think Tampa has
(02:44):
broken a record. So I've got the temperature at Tampa
International Airport right now at thirty nine degrees and the
record low for Tampa on November eleventh is forty degrees
back in eighteen ninety two, so I think that record
has been broken. But again, i'll that to the meteorologists.
We're going to talk to Jeff Moore from the Weather
Channel in a moment to make that official proclamation. But
(03:06):
it's cold, and it's the wind. The wind Gus that
was really.
Speaker 4 (03:10):
Tud like going over the bridge this morning too, super cold.
Speaker 1 (03:14):
Yeah, and usually we don't see this until December. Like
this extreme cold, but coming a little early this year.
It feels nice. Though, it does feel nice. I am
not complaining. I think when I left my place was
down to like sixty eight degrees somewhere in there. So
this is one of those stretches where I just refused
to turn on the heat. I just want to save
(03:35):
on my bill, kind of make up for all that
AC running during the summer. Yeah, so I'll just I'll
stick it out. It's going going to be a couple
of days.
Speaker 2 (03:42):
Well, we do have the Senate vote in and flight
disruptions that will continue worsening as the FA cut flights
due to the staffing shortages which were tied to the
government shutdown. Delays did jump to more than nine thousand yesterday,
with twenty four hundred cancelations and further reductions expected through Friday. Now,
taking a look this morning, it's actually not as bad.
(04:06):
Tampa International had six delays as of this morning, twenty
two cancelations.
Speaker 1 (04:11):
Not bad at all.
Speaker 2 (04:13):
Orlando International twenty two delays, forty cancelations, twenty one cancelations.
At Fort Lauderdale Hollywood International with eleven delays and twenty
nine cancelations at Miami International with twenty one delays.
Speaker 1 (04:27):
We'll see how things progress throughout the day, because the
flight cuts are supposed to go from four percent nationwide
to six percent today. Despite the deal that was made
in the Senate and that bill that was passed by
a voute of sixty to forty last night, those cuts
are still supposed to go into effect, And the FA
said yesterday even if the government shut down ends, which
(04:47):
it looks like it's going to by the end of
the week, the delays will continue as they ramp things up,
and it's putting a lot of pressure on travelers, putting
a lot of pressure obviously on air traffic controllers TSA
and even it sounds like flight attendants. There was a
United Airlines flight attendant who allegedly drank multiple Mini Voga
(05:08):
bottles during a ten hour flight from San Francisco to London.
She drank the calm down and when the plane landed
she was so intoxicated she needed medical attention. So now
it's taking its toll on everybody these days when it
comes to the shutdown itself, and the big development last
night the Senate passing that bill. Where things stand, how quickly,
this can get through the House and the government can reopen.
(05:30):
We're going to have that for everyone coming up in
just a little bit. What else we have gone on
this morning, Natalie.
Speaker 2 (05:35):
The deputy's death in Miami Dade County that we've been
talking about this week. It's being felt across two departments.
Deputy Devin had Amio was shot to death while on
duty last week. Before working for the Miami Dade Sheriff's Office,
he was a police officer in the city of Coral Gables,
where a sergeant was his direct supervisor, Michelle Christensen, and
she remembers him as brave and funny and intelligence, saying
(05:56):
that had Amo is a smart ass. She loved every
minute of working with him, and his death left her
heart broken and numb. And we're getting a little bit
more information as to what exactly transpired to his death,
and the rundown is basically before three point fifty in
the afternoon Friday, the assailant got into an accident with
(06:19):
another vehicle in Miami and around three point fifty, had Amiya,
who was assigned to a Kendall District station, So within
twenty minutes or so of this minor crash He was
the only deputy who responded, part of a standard policy
for crashes when there was a minor damage reported. When
he got there, the assailant fled the scene and went
(06:42):
into a nearby parking lot, switching seats with his passenger.
Had Amiyo spoke with the passenger, who at first said
that he was driving, but then quickly admitted that it
was the other guy who was behind the wheel, and
there was video showing haw Tomyo trying to subdue the
suspect as the pair rolled around in the grass. They struggled,
(07:04):
they fought, and that is when the suspect grabbed deputy
had a MEO's gun and shot him several times, at
least seven times, and as we know, he then turned
the gun on himself after he went back to the car.
Speaker 1 (07:17):
It sounds like the deputy was able to get on
top of the suspect and that's when the suspect grabbed
his gun. What we still don't know is what happened
between that moment when the deputy was talking to the
passenger and things then escalated into this struggle in that
(07:41):
grassy area nearby. I don't know if maybe the suspect
was trying to flee or what. So there's still some
unanswered questions. The one thing we do know is that
this is a tragedy and that this was a very
well liked and well respected deputy. He got his patrol
car placed outside the department's Kendle substations become basically a
(08:02):
memorial site. There just a really sad story and hopefully
we'll learn more about exactly what unfolded, all the details
real soon. Natalie Rodriguez with today's top stories. Natalie, thanks
so much. You got it. Now let's bringing Weather Channel
mediorologist Jeff Maher for today's forecast. Bronte by arch Well Health.
Arch Well Health's preventative care for adults age sixty plus
(08:22):
means catching small issues before they become big problems. So Jeff,
I didn't want to make the official proclamation that Tampa
had set a new record low this morning. Can you
do that? Did we break the record at Tampa International Airport?
Speaker 5 (08:39):
Yeah, it looks like we did. We were at thirty
nine degrees as you mentioned. Yeah, last hour in that
record said way back in eighteen ninety two, forty so
eclipsing that right now, it's forty one with a Winchell
thirty four in Tampa and Miami it is fifty of
a winchell forty four. So yeah, very cold as we
start off this Veteran's day. We'll be dry and we'll
see some sunshine, but wins will can to gust out
(09:00):
of the north, pulling in some cold air. The end
result high today near sixty in Tampa, upper sixties across
South Florida tonight and Tampa down to the low forties
under a clear sky, and you're sixty in Miami because
some clouds will be moving in across South Florida. And
then tomorrow lod to mid seventies for with the mix
of clouds at sunshine, warmer weather Thursday, a partly cloudy
afternoon with highs eventually hitting the mid to upper seventies.
So we will warm up after this cold Veterans Day.
Speaker 1 (09:22):
And I think for Miami it would still have to
drop a little bit more to hit that record, right,
it's like forty eight degrees I think from a long
life time.
Speaker 5 (09:29):
You yeah, I don't think Miami will set the record today,
but still cold though, certainly across the entire state.
Speaker 1 (09:35):
Oh yeah, all right. Weather Channel Media wologist Jeff mar
with US Jeff, thanks so much, appreciate it.
Speaker 3 (09:39):
You got it.
Speaker 1 (09:40):
The Senate has voted to end the government shutdown. On
this vote, the eyes are sixty, the nays are forty.
The bill as amended is passed. The bill now goes
to the House and would fund the government through July
and for a very long time. They'll be back at
it again after the new year. Eight Senate Democrats cross
(10:01):
party lines to support the deal, along with independent Angus King.
The package restores funding to key agencies, it reverses some
federal layoffs that took place during the shutdown, and it
requires a future vote on whether to extend the enhanced
Obamacare subsidies that would likely take place in December. House
Speaker Mike Johnson has called members back and says he
(10:22):
expects enough votes to pass it, with that vote potentially
happening as early as tomorrow afternoon. Got to get all
the members of Congress back to DC. As we know,
with all the air travel disruptions, that's going to be
a pretty tall task. But it sounds like they're pretty
confident they can get this done tomorrow. The White House
supports the deal, so it looks like everything's on track
(10:44):
for the government to reopen this week. Meanwhile, nationwide, over
nine thousand delays and twenty four hundred cancelations yesterday. And
keep in mind flight cuts go from four percent nationwide
to six percent today and that will not change that
increase because of this deal. Over eleven hundred flights have
(11:07):
been canceled so far this morning, and almost seven hundred
delays already and it's only eight twenty, so those numbers
are only going to continue to go up. Yeah, over
the past three days there have been thirty five thousand
delays and eight thousand cancelations. And when you look at
I thought this was an interesting statistic that kind of
(11:29):
puts into perspective how much these staffing issues have had
an impact on air travel. If you take a look
at air travel delay minutes tied to staffing issues, so
not you know, weather or things like that, from January
through September, it's about five percent, In October about sixteen percent,
(11:51):
November one through the sixth forty seven percent, and November
seventh through the ninth sixty one percent. So you could see,
you know, these staffing issues, and this is what we
said as the government shutdown continued, it was only going
to get worse, and then I think kind of puts
it into perspective just how much the staffing issues have
(12:13):
increased delays. And that's why we'll maybe talk about this tomorrow.
There's been this big battle within the Democratic Party. Should
the shutdown have continued, should they have reached a deal?
You could not continue this shutdown into the Thanksgiving holiday. No,
you just can't enough. You cannot create that much chaos now,
(12:34):
you just can't do it.
Speaker 5 (12:36):
No.
Speaker 1 (12:36):
So you know, this was and it's not like if
you waited until the last second, you could just turn
it all around, like like flipping a switch. We heard
from the FAA yesterday. Even with this deal, it's going
to take some time to ramp things back up. So
you're already pushing it right now, reaching this deal this week.
But that's why I said last week. Look, I don't
(12:58):
have any insert information into what's happened in Washington, DC.
I don't have sources on Capitol Hill. We have the
reporters that we talked to here on the show. Just
common sense told me there was no way this thing
was going to extend beyond this week. The deal was
going to be reached and the government would reopen by
the end of the week. That's why I said it.
I didn't have any inside information, but you just knew
it couldn't continue because you're running up against the Thanksgiving holiday.
(13:21):
Let's go back to the highline and bring in our
White House correspondent John Decker. Now, John, it's great to
tunty this morning, and it looks like finally some real
progress being made to end this government shutdown. The Senate
passing that funding bill last night. Now it goes to
the House and things could be opened back up by
the end of the week. Right.
Speaker 6 (13:42):
Oh, absolutely, We're on day forty two, the longest government
shutdown in US history. By the way, I was looking
at my calendar, the first big story that I covered
when I moved to Washington, d C. Thirty years ago
was the government shutdown on that full circle full circle.
Speaker 1 (14:01):
So who are some of the winners and losers from
this shutdown are from a political perspective, because, yeah, there
are obviously a lot of losers, mainly among the American
people who have been negatively impacted by all of this.
But just looking at the politics of it.
Speaker 6 (14:18):
Well, you're right one hundred percent. I think the first
name that comes to mind is Chuck Schumer, and Chuck
Schumer really was in a no win situation as it
relates to the government shutdown. You know, he's getting so
much pressure from progressives in his party to try to
keep the party unified, to keep the government shutdown, going
to force Republicans to cave as it relates to extending
(14:40):
those Affordable Care Act subsidies. But you know, look, those
progressives could not hold back those eight US Democratic senators
who decided to break ranks. And none of those eight senators,
by the way, are up for reelection next year, so
that was a difficult thing for him. There are among
(15:00):
some progressives for Chuck Schumer to step down from his
leadership position. He's maybe going to face primary when he's
up for reelection, maybe even from Alexandria Cassio Cortez. So
his is the first name that comes to mind when
I think about a political loser as it relates to
the government shutdown.
Speaker 1 (15:20):
What about a political winner.
Speaker 6 (15:22):
Well, I think Republicans come out winners in the short term.
You know, people forget about things very quickly. The news
cycle moves so incredibly quickly. I don't even think anybody
by the time Thanksgiving rolls around just a few weeks away,
we'll be talking about the government shutdown. But here's the thing, Ryan,
This Continuing Resolution, this CR, the stop gap funding bill,
(15:44):
only funds the government through the end of January.
Speaker 1 (15:47):
Yep.
Speaker 6 (15:47):
So come the end of January, we're going to be
talking about this all over again because we'll be facing
the possibility of another government shutdown at that time, and that,
of course, twenty twenty six it's a mid term election year,
so remember of the House of Representatives up for reelection.
Speaker 1 (16:03):
Yeah, I definitely think Republicans won this and Democrats lost it.
But it could also end up being a case where
one party loses the battle or wins the battle and
loses the war, because it's going to be a tough
vote in December on the enhanced Obamacare subsidies for some Republicans,
especially in the House, So that's going to be a
(16:25):
situation where that could come back to bite them in
the midterms.
Speaker 6 (16:28):
Yeah, I agree with you one hundred percent. That was
a commitment that was made at least as the far
as the Senate is concerned, no commitment as far as
the House is concerned, for a vote in the House
of Representatives on extending as ACA subsidies. But we've learned
that more than twenty million people get their insurance through
the ACA exchange, and a good chunk of the good
(16:51):
percentage of those individuals live in red states. So that will, indeed,
I agree with you one hundred percent, Ryan, that will
indeed be a tough vote if when that vote comes
up in the House of Representatives as it relates to
extending those ACA subsidies.
Speaker 1 (17:07):
Our White House correspondent John Decker with us this morning. John,
really appreciate it. We'll talk to you tomorrow. Thank you, Ryan,
Bye bye. All right, don't forget. You can check out
John Decker on the White House Briefing Room podcast, which
you can find on your iHeartRadio app. President Trump says
he made doc pay for air traffic controllers who took
time off during the shutdown. He posted those who did
(17:29):
nothing but complain could see pay withheld, and he said
he'd recommend ten thousand dollars bonuses for controllers who work
straight through. The Air Traffic Controllers' Union says the absences
aren't part of any kind of organized effort, it's just
stress and fatigue. And on that note, Transportation Department officials
say fifteen to twenty controllers per day have retired during
(17:53):
the shutdown, compared to about four normally, So that's putting
even more pressure on an air traffic controller industry that's
already short. I think the number is about three thousand nationwide.
National Air Traffic Controllers Association President Nick Daniels said this
about the situation yesterday.
Speaker 7 (18:12):
When the most disciplined safety workforce in America is forced
to think about survival instead of public safety.
Speaker 1 (18:21):
This is the cost. This is not theoretical.
Speaker 7 (18:24):
It is happening now in real families, in real control rooms,
in real time.
Speaker 1 (18:30):
And it's not just air traffic controllers. Martinez Santana is
a tsagent who's been shown up even though she hasn't
been getting paid. But that's not the case for many
of her colleagues.
Speaker 8 (18:40):
They're coming to the point where if I'm gonna if
I'm not feeling good, I'm not coming in.
Speaker 1 (18:44):
If I don't have guess, I'm not coming to work. Now.
She's a mother of three who's facing eviction, and she
says a letter from Homeland Security asking creditors to work
with federal employees hasn't helped.
Speaker 8 (18:56):
They gave him the letter that we're supposed to give,
and nobody, not one of my real collectors, not one
of my car payment, on one of my anything except
that I can do anything for me.
Speaker 1 (19:07):
So a couple of things. You know, you want everyone
to show up, but it's not their fault. They were
put in this position.
Speaker 4 (19:15):
Right well, and some of them I think are doing
things like door dash or doing something else so that
they can actually make some money instead of going to
work at a job that they're not getting.
Speaker 1 (19:23):
Paid for right exactly. They perhaps are facing eviction, or
they have predators coming after them that aren't giving them
a deal. They've got families to take care of, and
so they're having to do other things. You know, people
love to pretend they're holier than now until it's you
in that situation. Now, I wouldn't mind a little something
extra for those who stuck it out. I'm just not
sure how you do that. Would it just be air
(19:45):
traffic controllers, because you've got lots of government workers with
important jobs who did keep working despite not getting paid.
So I don't know where exactly that would that would
start and end. Does it include you know, members of
the military, Does it include TSA agents? I mean you know,
(20:06):
ten thousand dollars, you start handing that out to all
of those different federal workers, talking about a really big bill.
Speaker 4 (20:11):
So I was talking to my friend's husband last night
and he's a reservist and he has to travel to
Illinois for once a month for his drill and he
doesn't get reimbursed for his plane ticket that got canceled,
so he's not getting paid. He's not making the trip
now because of the shutdown, but he is out his
plane ticket because he can't use it now. So he's
eating like a four hundred dollars plane ticket because of
(20:33):
this government shutdown, and he's not getting paid for that one.
Speaker 1 (20:35):
Right. It's all these little things and you're talking about
a lot of federal workers again. I remember at the
start of the shutdown, we were getting comments like, you know,
these people are making hundreds of thousands of dollars, like
telling me they can't make it a little while during
a shutdown. That that is just not the case with
a lot of these federal workers. And that's why you're
seeing them have to turn to different organizations in the
(20:56):
community to help them get by during this shutdown, which
looks like it's going to end at the end of
this week, but still you're talking about a record long shutdown,
and for people who are living close to paycheck to paycheck,
it became a really big problem. And I'm sorry, I
just I can't. But I mean, maybe there's a few
that were like taking advantage of the situation. I'm sure
(21:19):
there's there's some of that. There always is, But for
the most part, I think it was a lot of
people who they just had to do something else in
order to pay the bills.
I'm Ryan Gorman with Dana McKay, Jason Bearinger, Briona Torrez,
and Natalie Ronriguez from our newsroom. Coming up this hour,
we'll get to today's forecast with Weather Channel Media ronagist

Speaker 1 (02:19):
Yeah, I can put more on, but you know, unless
you want to get sighted by law enforcement, you can
only take so much off when you got in public,
the sweat and everything. Now, the question was would there
be records broken? And I'm not going to make this

stick it out. It's going going to be a couple

Speaker 2 (03:42):
Well, we do have the Senate vote in and flight
disruptions that will continue worsening as the FA cut flights
due to the staffing shortages which were tied to the

United Airlines flight attendant who allegedly drank multiple Mini Voga
(05:08):
bottles during a ten hour flight from San Francisco to London.
She drank the calm down and when the plane landed
she was so intoxicated she needed medical attention. So now
it's taking its toll on everybody these days when it
comes to the shutdown itself, and the big development last
night the Senate passing that bill. Where things stand, how quickly,
this can get through the House and the government can reopen.
(05:30):
We're going to have that for everyone coming up in
just a little bit. What else we have gone on
this morning, Natalie.
Speaker 2 (05:35):
The deputy's death in Miami Dade County that we've been
talking about this week. It's being felt across two departments.
Deputy Devin had Amio was shot to death while on
duty last week. Before working for the Miami Dade Sheriff's Office,
he was a police officer in the city of Coral Gables,
where a sergeant was his direct supervisor, Michelle Christensen, and
she remembers him as brave and funny and intelligence, saying
(05:56):
that had Amo is a smart ass. She loved every
minute of working with him, and his death left her
heart broken and numb. And we're getting a little bit
more information as to what exactly transpired to his death,
and the rundown is basically before three point fifty in
the afternoon Friday, the assailant got into an accident with
(06:19):
another vehicle in Miami and around three point fifty, had Amiya,
who was assigned to a Kendall District station, So within
twenty minutes or so of this minor crash He was
the only deputy who responded, part of a standard policy
for crashes when there was a minor damage reported. When
he got there, the assailant fled the scene and went
(06:42):
into a nearby parking lot, switching seats with his passenger.
Had Amiyo spoke with the passenger, who at first said
that he was driving, but then quickly admitted that it
was the other guy who was behind the wheel, and
there was video showing haw Tomyo trying to subdue the
suspect as the pair rolled around in the grass. They struggled,
(07:04):
they fought, and that is when the suspect grabbed deputy
had a MEO's gun and shot him several times, at
least seven times, and as we know, he then turned
the gun on himself after he went back to the car.
Speaker 1 (07:17):
It sounds like the deputy was able to get on
top of the suspect and that's when the suspect grabbed
his gun. What we still don't know is what happened
between that moment when the deputy was talking to the
passenger and things then escalated into this struggle in that
(07:41):
grassy area nearby. I don't know if maybe the suspect
was trying to flee or what. So there's still some
unanswered questions. The one thing we do know is that
this is a tragedy and that this was a very
well liked and well respected deputy. He got his patrol
car placed outside the department's Kendle substations become basically a
(08:02):
memorial site. There just a really sad story and hopefully
we'll learn more about exactly what unfolded, all the details
real soon. Natalie Rodriguez with today's top stories. Natalie, thanks
so much. You got it. Now let's bringing Weather Channel
mediorologist Jeff Maher for today's forecast. Bronte by arch Well Health.
Arch Well Health's preventative care for adults age sixty plus
(08:22):
means catching small issues before they become big problems. So Jeff,
I didn't want to make the official proclamation that Tampa
had set a new record low this morning. Can you
do that? Did we break the record at Tampa International Airport?
Speaker 5 (08:39):
Yeah, it looks like we did. We were at thirty
nine degrees as you mentioned. Yeah, last hour in that
record said way back in eighteen ninety two, forty so
eclipsing that right now, it's forty one with a Winchell
thirty four in Tampa and Miami it is fifty of
a winchell forty four. So yeah, very cold as we
start off this Veteran's day. We'll be dry and we'll
see some sunshine, but wins will can to gust out
(09:00):
of the north, pulling in some cold air. The end
result high today near sixty in Tampa, upper sixties across
South Florida tonight and Tampa down to the low forties
under a clear sky, and you're sixty in Miami because
some clouds will be moving in across South Florida. And
then tomorrow lod to mid seventies for with the mix
of clouds at sunshine, warmer weather Thursday, a partly cloudy
afternoon with highs eventually hitting the mid to upper seventies.
So we will warm up after this cold Veterans Day.
Speaker 1 (09:22):
And I think for Miami it would still have to
drop a little bit more to hit that record, right,
it's like forty eight degrees I think from a long
life time.
Speaker 5 (09:29):
You yeah, I don't think Miami will set the record today,
but still cold though, certainly across the entire state.
Speaker 1 (09:35):
Oh yeah, all right. Weather Channel Media wologist Jeff mar
with US Jeff, thanks so much, appreciate it.
Speaker 3 (09:39):
You got it.
Speaker 1 (09:40):
The Senate has voted to end the government shutdown. On
this vote, the eyes are sixty, the nays are forty.
The bill as amended is passed. The bill now goes
to the House and would fund the government through July
and for a very long time. They'll be back at
it again after the new year. Eight Senate Democrats cross
(10:01):
party lines to support the deal, along with independent Angus King.
The package restores funding to key agencies, it reverses some
federal layoffs that took place during the shutdown, and it
requires a future vote on whether to extend the enhanced
Obamacare subsidies that would likely take place in December. House
Speaker Mike Johnson has called members back and says he
(10:22):
expects enough votes to pass it, with that vote potentially
happening as early as tomorrow afternoon. Got to get all
the members of Congress back to DC. As we know,
with all the air travel disruptions, that's going to be
a pretty tall task. But it sounds like they're pretty
confident they can get this done tomorrow. The White House
supports the deal, so it looks like everything's on track
(10:44):
for the government to reopen this week. Meanwhile, nationwide, over
nine thousand delays and twenty four hundred cancelations yesterday. And
keep in mind flight cuts go from four percent nationwide
to six percent today and that will not change that
increase because of this deal. Over eleven hundred flights have
(11:07):
been canceled so far this morning, and almost seven hundred
delays already and it's only eight twenty, so those numbers
are only going to continue to go up. Yeah, over
the past three days there have been thirty five thousand
delays and eight thousand cancelations. And when you look at
I thought this was an interesting statistic that kind of
(11:29):
puts into perspective how much these staffing issues have had
an impact on air travel. If you take a look
at air travel delay minutes tied to staffing issues, so
not you know, weather or things like that, from January
through September, it's about five percent, In October about sixteen percent,
(11:51):
November one through the sixth forty seven percent, and November
seventh through the ninth sixty one percent. So you could see,
you know, these staffing issues, and this is what we
said as the government shutdown continued, it was only going
to get worse, and then I think kind of puts
it into perspective just how much the staffing issues have
(12:13):
increased delays. And that's why we'll maybe talk about this tomorrow.
There's been this big battle within the Democratic Party. Should
the shutdown have continued, should they have reached a deal?
You could not continue this shutdown into the Thanksgiving holiday. No,
you just can't enough. You cannot create that much chaos now,
(12:34):
you just can't do it.
Speaker 5 (12:36):
No.
Speaker 1 (12:36):
So you know, this was and it's not like if
you waited until the last second, you could just turn
it all around, like like flipping a switch. We heard
from the FAA yesterday. Even with this deal, it's going
to take some time to ramp things back up. So
you're already pushing it right now, reaching this deal this week.
But that's why I said last week. Look, I don't
(12:58):
have any insert information into what's happened in Washington, DC.
I don't have sources on Capitol Hill. We have the
reporters that we talked to here on the show. Just
common sense told me there was no way this thing
was going to extend beyond this week. The deal was
going to be reached and the government would reopen by
the end of the week. That's why I said it.
I didn't have any inside information, but you just knew
it couldn't continue because you're running up against the Thanksgiving holiday.
(13:21):
Let's go back to the highline and bring in our
White House correspondent John Decker. Now, John, it's great to
tunty this morning, and it looks like finally some real
progress being made to end this government shutdown. The Senate
passing that funding bill last night. Now it goes to
the House and things could be opened back up by
the end of the week. Right.
Speaker 6 (13:42):
Oh, absolutely, We're on day forty two, the longest government
shutdown in US history. By the way, I was looking
at my calendar, the first big story that I covered
when I moved to Washington, d C. Thirty years ago
was the government shutdown on that full circle full circle.
Speaker 1 (14:01):
So who are some of the winners and losers from
this shutdown are from a political perspective, because, yeah, there
are obviously a lot of losers, mainly among the American
people who have been negatively impacted by all of this.
But just looking at the politics of it.
Speaker 6 (14:18):
Well, you're right one hundred percent. I think the first
name that comes to mind is Chuck Schumer, and Chuck
Schumer really was in a no win situation as it
relates to the government shutdown. You know, he's getting so
much pressure from progressives in his party to try to
keep the party unified, to keep the government shutdown, going
to force Republicans to cave as it relates to extending
(14:40):
those Affordable Care Act subsidies. But you know, look, those
progressives could not hold back those eight US Democratic senators
who decided to break ranks. And none of those eight senators,
by the way, are up for reelection next year, so
that was a difficult thing for him. There are among
(15:00):
some progressives for Chuck Schumer to step down from his
leadership position. He's maybe going to face primary when he's
up for reelection, maybe even from Alexandria Cassio Cortez. So
his is the first name that comes to mind when
I think about a political loser as it relates to
the government shutdown.
Speaker 1 (15:20):
What about a political winner.
Speaker 6 (15:22):
Well, I think Republicans come out winners in the short term.
You know, people forget about things very quickly. The news
cycle moves so incredibly quickly. I don't even think anybody
by the time Thanksgiving rolls around just a few weeks away,
we'll be talking about the government shutdown. But here's the thing, Ryan,
This Continuing Resolution, this CR, the stop gap funding bill,
(15:44):
only funds the government through the end of January.
Speaker 1 (15:47):
Yep.
Speaker 6 (15:47):
So come the end of January, we're going to be
talking about this all over again because we'll be facing
the possibility of another government shutdown at that time, and that,
of course, twenty twenty six it's a mid term election year,
so remember of the House of Representatives up for reelection.
Speaker 1 (16:03):
Yeah, I definitely think Republicans won this and Democrats lost it.
But it could also end up being a case where
one party loses the battle or wins the battle and
loses the war, because it's going to be a tough
vote in December on the enhanced Obamacare subsidies for some Republicans,
especially in the House, So that's going to be a
(16:25):
situation where that could come back to bite them in
the midterms.
Speaker 6 (16:28):
Yeah, I agree with you one hundred percent. That was
a commitment that was made at least as the far
as the Senate is concerned, no commitment as far as
the House is concerned, for a vote in the House
of Representatives on extending as ACA subsidies. But we've learned
that more than twenty million people get their insurance through
the ACA exchange, and a good chunk of the good
(16:51):
percentage of those individuals live in red states. So that will, indeed,
I agree with you one hundred percent, Ryan, that will
indeed be a tough vote if when that vote comes
up in the House of Representatives as it relates to
extending those ACA subsidies.
Speaker 1 (17:07):
Our White House correspondent John Decker with us this morning. John,
really appreciate it. We'll talk to you tomorrow. Thank you, Ryan,
Bye bye. All right, don't forget. You can check out
John Decker on the White House Briefing Room podcast, which
you can find on your iHeartRadio app. President Trump says
he made doc pay for air traffic controllers who took
time off during the shutdown. He posted those who did
(17:29):
nothing but complain could see pay withheld, and he said
he'd recommend ten thousand dollars bonuses for controllers who work
straight through. The Air Traffic Controllers' Union says the absences
aren't part of any kind of organized effort, it's just
stress and fatigue. And on that note, Transportation Department officials
say fifteen to twenty controllers per day have retired during
(17:53):
the shutdown, compared to about four normally, So that's putting
even more pressure on an air traffic controller industry that's
already short. I think the number is about three thousand nationwide.
National Air Traffic Controllers Association President Nick Daniels said this
about the situation yesterday.
Speaker 7 (18:12):
When the most disciplined safety workforce in America is forced
to think about survival instead of public safety.
Speaker 1 (18:21):
This is the cost. This is not theoretical.
Speaker 7 (18:24):
It is happening now in real families, in real control rooms,
in real time.
Speaker 1 (18:30):
And it's not just air traffic controllers. Martinez Santana is
a tsagent who's been shown up even though she hasn't
been getting paid. But that's not the case for many
of her colleagues.
Speaker 8 (18:40):
They're coming to the point where if I'm gonna if
I'm not feeling good, I'm not coming in.
Speaker 1 (18:44):
If I don't have guess, I'm not coming to work. Now.
She's a mother of three who's facing eviction, and she
says a letter from Homeland Security asking creditors to work
with federal employees hasn't helped.
Speaker 8 (18:56):
They gave him the letter that we're supposed to give,
and nobody, not one of my real collectors, not one
of my car payment, on one of my anything except
that I can do anything for me.
Speaker 1 (19:07):
So a couple of things. You know, you want everyone
to show up, but it's not their fault. They were
put in this position.
Speaker 4 (19:15):
Right well, and some of them I think are doing
things like door dash or doing something else so that
they can actually make some money instead of going to
work at a job that they're not getting.
Speaker 1 (19:23):
Paid for right exactly. They perhaps are facing eviction, or
they have predators coming after them that aren't giving them
a deal. They've got families to take care of, and
so they're having to do other things. You know, people
love to pretend they're holier than now until it's you
in that situation. Now, I wouldn't mind a little something
extra for those who stuck it out. I'm just not
sure how you do that. Would it just be air
(19:45):
traffic controllers, because you've got lots of government workers with
important jobs who did keep working despite not getting paid.
So I don't know where exactly that would that would
start and end. Does it include you know, members of
the military, Does it include TSA agents? I mean you know,
(20:06):
ten thousand dollars, you start handing that out to all
of those different federal workers, talking about a really big bill.
Speaker 4 (20:11):
So I was talking to my friend's husband last night
and he's a reservist and he has to travel to
Illinois for once a month for his drill and he
doesn't get reimbursed for his plane ticket that got canceled,
so he's not getting paid. He's not making the trip
now because of the shutdown, but he is out his
plane ticket because he can't use it now. So he's
eating like a four hundred dollars plane ticket because of
(20:33):
this government shutdown, and he's not getting paid for that one.
Speaker 1 (20:35):
Right. It's all these little things and you're talking about
a lot of federal workers again. I remember at the
start of the shutdown, we were getting comments like, you know,
these people are making hundreds of thousands of dollars, like
telling me they can't make it a little while during
a shutdown. That that is just not the case with
a lot of these federal workers. And that's why you're
seeing them have to turn to different organizations in the
(20:56):
community to help them get by during this shutdown, which
looks like it's going to end at the end of
this week, but still you're talking about a record long shutdown,
and for people who are living close to paycheck to paycheck,
it became a really big problem. And I'm sorry, I
just I can't. But I mean, maybe there's a few
that were like taking advantage of the situation. I'm sure
(21:19):
there's there's some of that. There always is, But for
the most part, I think it was a lot of
people who they just had to do something else in
order to pay the bills.

Table 4 explores how food impacts every aspect of our lives. “Foods is politics, food is cultural, food is how you express love, food is about your heritage, it defines who you and who you want to be,” says Rogers. Each week, Rogers invites her guest to reminisce about family suppers and first dates, what they cook, how they eat when performing, the restaurants they choose, and what food they seek when they need comfort. And to punctuate each episode of Table 4, guests such as Ralph Fiennes, Emily Blunt, and Alfonso Cuarón, read their favourite recipe from one of the best-selling River Cafe cookbooks. Table 4 itself, is situated near The River Cafe’s open kitchen, close to the bright pink wood-fired oven and next to the glossy yellow pass, where Ruthie oversees the restaurant.
