The Supreme Court's recent decision reeling in the Chevron doctrine has significant implications for regulatory agencies and environmental regulations. Meanwhile, the aftermath of the presidential debate has sparked outrage and raised questions about President Biden's fitness for office, potentially leading to a change in the Democratic Party's nominee.

If performance enhancing drugs will improve their lucidity, their ability to solve problems, and in one of the candidates cases improve their truthfulness, morality and malignant narcissism, then suppository away. Guess what, everybody? They should be taking whatever magical drugs can kick their brains into gear because this ain't Olympic swimming.

You know what I'm saying? Oh, he solved the Middle East, but he was doping. So it doesn't count. There's going to be an asterisk next to his presidency.

And by the way, if those drugs don't exist, if there aren't actually performance enhancing drugs for these candidates, I could sure use some recreational ones right now because this cannot be real life. It just can't. We're America. John Stewart had a meltdown last night.

Kind of funny. By the way, this just came through the Supreme Court decisions that are released Thursday, Friday. And I guess we're going to wait for this the immunity decision coming out on Monday to see what kind of immunity the president has. In a 6-2 ruling, Justice Katanji Brown Jackson did not participate. The court's majority said the federal rule promulgating the national oceanic and atmospheric conditions requiring the fisherman to pay $700 a day for an at sea monitor is out of bounds. The justices in January heard the arguments.

Now they rule. The court's decision reels in what's now known as the Chevron doctrine. A legal theory established in the 1980s that says if a federal regulation is challenged, the court should defer to the agency's interpretation of whether Congress granted them the authority or not. People think these like regulatory agencies are just circumventing all these rules, laws and regulations. And they're 100% right.

It looks at the Supreme Court agrees. And that's tremendous for people who want to drill. You want to open up a business. They embody the environmental things that just get slapped on. And I saw Governor Doug Burgum told me one of the main differences, the presidencies of Biden and Trump is as governor of North Dakota, he said, you would not believe the regulations that come in from this administration about the environment, especially, he said, I don't have enough attorneys in North Dakota. I have to go out and hire additional attorneys to handle all the regulations.

And I have to use taxpayer dollars to do it because they're too inhibiting. So that this is a long way. This is a very good decision for the country, in my view. So the obstruction law does not apply to January. So we'll find out about that.

So we'll find out what's happening with immunity shortly or on Monday. With us right now is Brit Hume. Brit, we're wearing you out. We have you on TV all night last night. Then we put you on TV again today. And then you're way too dressed for radio. I mean, you have overdressed for radio. And I also got makeup on my face. Is that unbelievable?

So we look too good almost. Well, in my case, that's not possible. Well, that's not true. So Brit, first off, I love when things happen unprecedented for someone with all the experience that you have. Do you believe that the outrage, what is this thing that strikes you most about the aftermath of the debate?

Well, I think it's a case of people looking and seeing something that they had somehow managed not to see for all these years. I mean, I don't want to say I told you so really, but I've been saying that Biden was senile since way back before the 2020 election. He did.

I've known him forever. I always had rather liked him, but he was plainly losing it. And you could see it.

It was plain as day. And there were innumerable examples of instances in public that showed that that was the case. This is a senile man.

He should not be president of the United States. And the denial of it was shocking. And the denials are not going by the boards. And, you know, the press is full of people saying, well, now, you know, Mr. Joe, we love you, but you got to step aside. When's the last time the conventions had real drama for you? Well, you know, go back to 1968. You had that mess in Chicago, Chicago, where we'll be again this year with anti-war protesters disrupting events and making the city into quite a scene. But it used to be, you know, after it was clear who the nominee was long before the convention, that there would be floor fights over planks in the platform or a number of other things. We haven't had that in years. It's been a TV show, a TV commercial, really, for the candidate for as long as long as I think it's going to change here because, you know, they you know, they handed us all these rules and regulations, how the DNC might be able to make a change on their nominee.

And as I look at this, do you think if nothing changes, do you think it could come down to August? Oh, I do. I mean, I think that's well, if you kind of devise a scenario where where someone else is nominated, you got a convention packed with delegates, a majority of them who are for Biden. They're Biden people. Biden picked him. And 95 percent of all he said, he's our guy.

Yeah, that's right. But if he were to say the first step would have to be Biden would have to agree to step aside and he would have to say, I'll serve out my term, but I've decided to retire, at which point Kamala doesn't it doesn't become anything but a potential candidate. So they don't automatically nominate her.

Then they'd have to be campaigns in a short space of time, wage, really going out to the public or that week. Well, I don't know how they choose to do it, but you have to run in a very short space of time to the nomination. And then you go to the convention and the Biden delegates would have to agree. Now Biden could throw his support to somebody.

I'm not sure he would, but I think that's what would have to happen. And you have an open convention with God knows how many ballots needed to choose a nominee. And if look, look at it this way, Brian, if that were to happen and the Democrats would settle on a credible nominee, let us not forget Donald Trump, despite the fact that he's leading in the polls and despite, despite the fact that he showed strength last night is not popular and for a credible Democrat might find him an easy target from the Fox News Podcast Network.

Well, I do you really think not popular or would you say? I mean, his popularity with Republicans is through the roof. That's right. But we're talking about a general election now. Independence.

Well, we're talking about independence and even some members of the other party or whatever. And then you've got Republicans who don't like him. And so he's got a lot of up against Biden.

He looks great. He might not look so great against some other danger for Democrats is that they that Biden agrees to step aside. They have a real race in this condensed period of time.

Right. And Kamala wins, which is not impossible. She's on she's on more unpopular than Biden is. But within the Democratic Party, it's a different story. She could get the nomination and she's even, you know, as I say, she's even weaker with the public in their estimation than Biden has been. And that might spell sure defeat. But it also could mean a credible candidate could be a winner. Prior to the prior to the debate, Gallup did a poll and Biden's approval rate is at 37 percent, historically low. So after this, it's going to drop even more. I can't imagine that, but it's going to happen.

But here's the scenario. I was talking to Mike LaRosa, former chief of staff for Jill Biden, and he said the Bidens are always used to the press, giving them short thrift. That's why they were at war with The New York Times and Washington Post like they are. And they say when the when things go bad, they close ranks and they're going to rally around him. She and he didn't prior to this debate, he saw no way in which he would voluntarily leave because they're in that mode that the world's against him anyway. Right or wrong? Well, the last time we saw something where a president stepped aside was Nixon, 1974, when a group of Republicans while in office, while in office, a group of Republican leaders from Congress and elsewhere went to see him and said, Mr. President, it's time to go.

You should go. And it's a party support begins to melt away among the party leaders and his family decides, wait a minute, this isn't working. It could happen. And a lot of people think it will happen. A lot of people think it has to happen.

Right. For the fortunes of the Democratic Party. Last minute, can you name two people that you think would emerge right now at the top of your head? Well, obviously you'd have Kamala would be a candidate, I think, and Gavin Newsom has been hanging around the edges of this for some time. He probably would run. Gretchen Whitner has a lot of credibility within within the Democratic Party.

She probably would. Josh Shapiro, the popular Democratic governor and and relatively centrist governor of Pennsylvania is another possibility. So, you know, they've got a they've got some they've got some bench. Right. How popular they be nationally is another question.

But some relatively moderate, attractive Democrat would be a formidable candidate. Trump's doing a good job saying out of the news, let him have it. Let him have this news cycle. It works for the other guy, right? It seems to. Brett, thanks so much. You always work for us. I appreciate it. Great Brit Hume. We borrowed him on a historic time the day after the debate like no other. And I'm being kind. You get your podcasts.
