I'm John Batchel with my good colleague Elizabeth Peake of The Hill, a columnist, of Fox News,

0:08.4

a columnist, much on Fox Business. And Liz has a new column up for Fox News about 2028. It's so far away,

0:16.4

it's pretty much like a science fiction story. But here we are. Okay. And the vice president's name, Ms. Harris,
