| 0:00.0 | Hello, friends and neighbors. It's Friday morning. Time for another reporter's roundtable on the Bill Press pod. Thanks so much for joining us. Well, another busy week and maybe another warning sign for Republicans heading into 2024 because no doubt reproductive rights won big |
| 0:24.3 | in Tuesdays off-year elections in Ohio, Virginia, and Kentucky, with Republicans going in one direction |
| 0:31.8 | on that issue and apparently American voters going in another. Joe Manchin dropped the biggest bombshell of the week, announcing he will not run for |
| 0:41.8 | re-election to the Senate in 2024, while not rejecting a possible run for president. |
| 0:48.2 | But no such hesitation on the part of Jill Stein, two-time Green Party candidate for president who jumped in again this |
| 0:56.3 | week, insisting that the third time is the charm. Meanwhile, daughter Ivanka testified in her daddy's |

| 1:42.4 | three of the best of whom join us today. Emily Gooden, U.S. |
| 1:47.2 | political reporter for the Dailymail.com. Hi, Emily. Hi, Bill. Thanks for having me. |
| 1:53.2 | Thank you. And John Bennett, editor at large and analysis columnist for CQ roll call and writer |
| 1:59.7 | of the CQ afternoon briefing. Hello, John. Good morning, Bill. |
| 2:05.0 | And Lynn Sweet, columnist and Washington Bureau Chief for the Chicago Sun Times. Good to be here, Bill. |
| 2:11.6 | All right, I want to start with the big off-year elections this week. John, you know, these off-year elections always have some |
| 2:21.5 | kind of a message or have something to say about the big one coming up in the following year, |
| 2:26.9 | right? I think this year, no exception. What did we learn from this year's off-year elections? |
