CBSN
The second youngest woman in Congress, Democratic Rep. Sara Jacobs, of California, would be happy to see the oldest president in history run for re-election and the oldest House speaker hold onto her job, despite the misgivings of her fellow progressives.
Jacobs says House Speaker Nancy Pelosi is among the few leaders who "can keep our caucus together." Jacobs is also solidly in President Biden's camp, she told CBS News chief Washington Correspondent Major Garrett on this week's episode of "The Takeout."
"Many people have many different opinions. I am proud to be led by President Biden right now," said Jacob. "I think he is our best chance of keeping the White House in 2024." She spoke with Garrett in San Diego.

WASHINGTON — An American intelligence assessment of the Ecuadorian presidential election, set for Sunday, concluded that a reelection of the incumbent president would better serve U.S. national security interests over the challenger. The assessment comes as the Trump administration mulls establishing a permanent U.S. military presence in the South American country, once known as the "island of peace," to help battle violent gangs, CBS News has learned.
