8:02 am
the wisconsin governor declared a state of emergency and vowed to deploy additional national guard troops to restore order in the city earlier in the day blake's attorney said that the shots police officers fired into blake's back as he attempted to get into his s.u.v. have left him paralyzed. let's get more now we're joined by stuff on simons he's joining us from commercial wisconsin stuff and you've been on on the ground there it's been a 3rd night of protest in wisconsin what's going on. you know all day all night as you said day peaceful with not much law enforcement on the ground here visible and not many protests but that changed as soon as darkness fell upon kenosha a lot of law enforcement as you see now it's all boring and calm because protests are over however that was in the beginning of this evening like this about 23 hours
8:03 am
ago protesters delivered a standoff with law enforcement personnel here at the courthouse in can osha and this park behind me then law enforcement officers as those behind me managed to drive protesters down the street and then something happened which a lot of people actually thought oh maybe possible and were afraid of that to happen what we heard were gunshots real gunshots not pepper bean bags or tear gas poppers here from law enforcement and what transpired is that these that's what we heard from a few witnesses and i'm still saying let's rest on the side of caution here because i have nothing heard officially there's no official confirmation except one reported remark from a police officer that there are many people shot we have talked to people who said that one person was shot in the hat and. brought to the hospital immediately
8:04 am
after an altercation broke out between protesters and libertarian militia type people that was the words of the witness we talked to. the people with. a ar 15 s the long rifles and semi-automatic rifles took at them to themselves to shoot at the protesters to prevent them from breaking glasses of cost this is what we heard from people again caution here and nothing official yet this is probably coming in the morning here locally in can no show. well we know more about that and as that rest on the streets they could describe it as taking place we have shaken lakes attorney saying that he's been paralyzed after being shot multiple times by police in the back how are people reacting to that statement. and i would say for the family as well as people who are close to the family and
8:05 am
progress this year we talked to took note of that news and overall there are understandably happy that jacob blake survived being shot 7 times into spec but of course everybody is not taking the news very lightly or too well that he will probably or very very likely end up not walking anymore for the rest of his life. there is a substantial amount of anger frustration and hurt here in this community of course not just with the family but in this community. people think and feel that not too much progress has been made in the last 3 months since george floyd in minneapolis was murdered by a police officer. they still think that much more work has to be done and i think that can osha is an example for that exactly that much more work has to be done structural racism has to be racism has to be dispelled from for example law

enforcement stefan simons with a view from conventional wisconsin this evening thank you. well i'll swear in the united states the u.s. 1st lady maloney a trump has addressed the republican party's national convention on day 2 of the gathering she became the 1st speaker to directly mention the pandemic has killed nearly 200000 americans she talked of the pain suffered by many families and tried to counter the widespread criticism of her husband's response of the pandemic by saying that he was working hard to tackle the disease for some of what she had to say. my deepest sympathy goes out to everyone who has lost a loved one and my prayers. who are who are suffering. i know many people are anxious and sound feel helpless i want you to know
8:07 am
you're not alone. my husband's administration will not stop fighting until there is an effective treatment or a vaccine available to everyone. and welcome more on day 2 of the republican national convention we are bringing in michelle stockman from d.w. news michelle welcome to the program how was this message received you know malani i needed a comeback story her speech from the last convention 2016 was a complete disaster because she was accused of plagiarism there were many passages written verbatim from the speech that michelle obama gave in 2008 so in the speech we got one of the rare mentions of the coded 1000 pandemic crisis in america and it was an expression of sympathy and care for people who might be going through some really hard times right now in terms of their health or losing their jobs so supporters would look at this speech and say look at the successful immigrant 1st
8:08 am
lady although there is some controversy about her views when she 1st came but she expressed herself well she can cross is confident she made a strong case for donald trump to be reelected but there are critics who look at this speech and say this is just window dressing window dressing on the top administration's failures and dressing the coded $1000.00 pandemic and also she mentions the nation should come together and heal from episodes of racial injustice that also might sound tone deaf from the wife of a man who has been known to tweet out race this tweets and stoke racial tensions in america right now tell us a little bit more about some of the other messages as well because we have the u.s. . state by pompei also speaking yesterday a speech that was widely condemned was in it it was for breaking long term norms and traditions this is the 1st time in around 75 years that a sitting secretary of state has spoken at a national political convention also he did it from jerusalem
8:09 am
a controversial city and seen as props a prop used from his office being used politically and the house foreign relations committee has in fact open investigation to see if the speech was potentially. illegal there is a law called the hatch act that prohibits federal employees from engaging in political activities while they're in office so there's that when you look at the speech itself it wasn't that controversial is some of the greatest hits that he's put out about the term foreign policy tough on china he lauded the moving of the embassy to jerusalem and also the normalization of ties between the united arab emirates and israel so. you know he it was controversial but. it's kind of just what the administration's doing it right now breaking norms when we sift through all of the messages that we have heard so far tell us i mean is this striking the right note with his base is it striking the right note with
8:10 am
potentially undecided voters of america overall how do you think people are digesting this i think it was a night's targeted toward those undecided voters when you watched the entire convention last night or you know and to say it was basically trying to show a big tent party a party where black americans are welcome where brown americans are welcome where immigrants are welcome where women are welcome and there were moments that showed. people coming together and overcoming criminal justice wrongs there was a naturalization ceremony stuns people might say but to an undecided voter who might be turned off by terms. rush style and some of the ways that he's stoked anger in america they may look at these moments and say yeah this is the kind of softer party that i want to be a part of it's still too early to tell though joe biden is leading by quite a bit and several swing states the trump flips the last election so we're really
