3:39 am
>> that was kate cox during the roll call. she is the texas mother who was forced to flee her home state to receive an emergency abortion for a pregnancy that wasn't viable, and she was again at the dnc's roll call last night, and she slammed donald trump and texas republicans for abortion bans that she says endangered her health and her future fertility. cox sued texas for denying her access to abortion care. last night, she made this very joyous announcement. today, because i found a way to access abortion care. >> i am pregnant again. thank you. and my baby is due in january, just in time to see kamala harris sworn in as president of the united states. >> and joining us now is kate cox from here in chicago. kate, good morning to you. first of
3:40 am
all, congratulations on your pregnancy. this moment stood out to me last night, and i was eager to talk to you about what it felt like to be here at the convention after such a period of. i mean, you've been through so much. >> yes, absolutely. you know, there was so much hope and momentum in that room. so i'm i'm just very honored to be here. >> so, kate, can you kind of just remind us and take us through the journey that you have been on since you left texas to find the care that you needed to, again, get to the point where you can safely carry another baby? >> yes. and end of last year i had the most heartbreaking and complicated pregnancy. so i was we received the most devastating news that parents can receive a
3:41 am
fatal fetal diagnosis that our baby would never survive. it was a pregnancy plagued with pain and suffering. i spent nights in the emergency room instead of at home, tucking my children into bed. so we made the most difficult and devastating decision. and that was my husband and i together with my doctor, decided to access seek abortion care so that we could preserve my fertility and have the opportunity to bring a baby home. so after what we went through, now we speak out and share our story, because i think it's important to hear the stories from the women who have been through these tragedies. there's millions of americans living under extreme abortion bans that are devastating for families and their health. >> do you know if it's a boy or a girl? >> i'm having a little boy. oh, congratulations. >> what's next for you here at the convention? are you planning on attending harris's speech on thursday? >> thank you. i will be here as
3:42 am
long as i can. of course. i've i've got little ones at home to take care of as well. so i will be here as long as i can to show my support for our vice president. harris. i'm so grateful for the work she does for reproductive freedom. she trusts women and fights for our freedom. >> all right. kate cox, very grateful to have you on this morning. and again, congratulations on your little boy. thank you. all right. we're going to turn we're going to turn now to this. >> these guys are trying to hide what they're doing. they're trying to figure out what it is. and i've said this i coached high school football long enough to know. i know if you're going to take the time to draw up a playbook, you plan on using it. so this project 2025 thing, it is simply the playbook. and they're going to call the plays straight down the line. >> project 2025 has been a significant focus at the dnc this week. it's a reference to a plan from the conservative heritage foundation. it's a 920 page document that lays out
3:43 am
conservative policies and plans for another trump term. >> usually, republicans want to ban books, but now they're trying to shove this down our throats. their project 2025 agenda is the same old, same old. >> but let me tell you what a radical agenda is. and that is trump's project 2025. >> so the trump campaign insists they don't have knowledge of the project, although cnn investigation found at least 140 former trump administration officials helped write it. joining us now to talk more about this, michigan state senator mallory mcmorrow, who you saw speaking out about this project earlier this week, that was you there with the book. talk to me a little bit about why this is such a focus. it, it it does tell us that clearly.
3:44 am
you can see in the data that the policies that are included in this are things that that democrats see an opportunity around, that these are things that potentially galvanize your voters. why and how i think that's right. >> and you saw trump and the trump campaign really run away from this. once people started to realize what it is and what's in it and how wildly unpopular the ideas that were laid out by the heritage foundation really are. as you pointed out, there are more than 140 trump administration officials who were involved in writing this, promoting this. they have training videos about how to talk about project 2025. and i think everybody by now knows who donald trump is. there was a sense in his first term that he was kind of bumbling his way through the presidency, and figuring it out how as he goes, but this is the plan that he would execute starting on day one for the first 180 days. that would radically strip down our government and reshape it to serve only him. >> and what what in it do you think is potentially the most
3:45 am
problematic in your view? >> i think there are a number of things. i mean, what i touched on in night one, this idea that he would systematically replace civil servants with trump loyalists. now, regardless of your party, that should terrify everybody, whether it is the safety regulators who test the products that my daughter eats, i want to make sure that those are experts. they are not party loyalists. that terrifies me. and there's also a definition of family. throughout project 2025 that really redefines that. there's only one acceptable way within the republican party to be a family. have a child that takes that right away from you heard the story just earlier in the previous segment, strips that right away from so many women and families in a way that would devastate this country. >> our panel is here. alex, you have a question? >> yeah. well, you know, for you, what do you say to people the trump campaign. and, you know, they've made it very clear they don't like this plan. they haven't liked this for a long time. and i mean, what do you
3:46 am
say to someone that's like, well, the trump campaign says this, this isn't us. >> i think when somebody shows you who they are, believe them. the fact that donald trump has raised money for the heritage foundation has showed up side by side with many of the leaders. again, you can't discount how many people from the trump administration were involved in creating this document. and now promoting it, putting it out there. jd vance wrote the up front to the forthcoming book from the head of the heritage foundation and after realizing how deeply unpopular it is, they've delayed the book. that's not to say they're not connected to it. they're just delaying it for after the election to try to pull the wool over americans eyes, to say, this is not connected to us. it's not happening. just trust us. and that is such a disservice to americans. >> is there is there one policy, if you could tell all americans, one policy in 2025, that you wish all of them knew, what would it be? >> dismantling the government? i mean, i know that the idea of civil servants is kind of wonky and unpopular, but these are the experts who make every single aspect of our country function. and to turn the entire country
3:47 am
into a political game would be a nightmare. kate. >> so i'm curious. you've been such an effective driver of the message on this, and we've seen data polling that shows that people are starting to understand what 20 project 2025 is. i'm curious if you get reaction from voters in your district, kind of how when you're talking about this, how do people react? >> you know, i do. >> there was a billboard up in the metro detroit area where i'm from weeks ago, long before this convention that just said project 2025. google it. and you saw the search results on google. people were googling it. so whether or not it was a mistake of the heritage foundation to give it a catchy brand name, it's something that people they put out there, they branded it, they wanted people to find it. there's a website with all kinds of videos about what it is. people are finding it and they don't like it. so i was getting questions. well before coming here about what are we going to do about it? and how do we get that message out to people about what this really does. >> all right. mallory mcmorrow,
3:48 am
thank you so much for being on the show. thank you. hope you'll come back. i appreciate that you're a morning person. it means a lot to us around here. mom of a little one. >> i am a morning person. >> it's like it's also a life phase. i completely agree with that. all right, coming up next here, tim walz set to make his speech tonight at the dnc one night after barack obama had this to say about him. >> let me tell you something. i love this guy. tim is the kind of person who should be in politics. you can tell those those flannel shirts he wears don't come from some political consultant. they come from his closet. and they have been through some stuff. >> we'll discuss what to expect from the vice presidential candidate tonight. country. bits

3:54 am
fear like them. you're going to run into a little trouble when you run into a campaign that's based on joy vice presidential nominee tim walz will be taking the main stage tonight here in chicago. >> it will be a male your test for walls who just recently been thrust into the national spotlight as the harris was campaign. now looks to try to convert momentum into votes. the former president bill clinton is also set to speak for decades ago, clinton took the dnc stage when walter mondale picked geraldine ferraro as his running mate, making her the first woman to accept the vice presidential nomination. now, 40 years later, the first woman vice president could make history once again, or panel's back let's just do a quick whip around in terms of what you're expecting to see tonight, alex, what are you looking for? >> i'm going to see a bill clinton still has it. you know, he hasn't really done a huge speech like this since 2012 and 2016. he was really their to just validate hillary clinton, try not to overshadow her. let's see, does he still bring it? i mean, he is younger than
3:55 am
joe biden, but he's also not young. >> yeah no. what are you looking for also? >> watching bill clinton barak obama once called him the explain her in chief guy who can speak to those working class voters that shermichael was referencing and frame the economic the case in a way. very few others can i i'm watching for that and i'm watching for tim walz to bring a lot of joy to this. >> i did enjoy, i will say barak obama's joke about his flannel shirt. yes. yes. >> i've seen a lot. >> shermichael. >> what do i mean like tim walz has one job, which is why he was chosen, and that is to improve vice president harris this is margins and those battleground states among key demo groups where all the data, since she's jumped in, this thing has shown she's not going to likely perform well with can he get that message across? not only have just hoping inspiration, but an economic sort of revitalization for those areas. if he can touch on that, what the joint emotion, then it will be an effective speech doesn't touch on that. then again, this is still going to be an issue that they're going to have to figure out a way to drive home.
3:56 am
>> shermichael is on it governor walz makes the case for kamala harris. >> what is his we've seen him be this incredible force of enthusiasm and joy since he's come out of the gate, he's been i think an enormous asset to her tonight will be a time where he will really be in the spotlight, both introducing himself, talking about his own life story, which connects, i think with people all over this country. but i want, i'm interested to see how is he going to make the case for kamala harris? what does he what does he think? >> her strengths are? >> what is it going to sound like that full-throated case for her and i think he's going to be terrific, but i'm very interested to hear how he does it a big moment for a guy who again, says he never used a telephone from there before this all started as an all right. thanks, guys for being here this morning. thanks to all of you for joining us as well. i'm kasie hunt. don't go anywhere. cnn news central is next from right here in chicago comedy us coming to cnn what could go wrong i got news for you from your saturday,
