kelly file" is struggling to want. the reality show star is 32 years old. after she beat cancer twice before she launched a medical gift registry to help those in crisis. now she's facing her toughest battle. check it out. and we wish her well. welcome to "hannity." this is a fox news alert. the search is on for the militant who beheaded american journalist james foley. and among the jihadist under investigation, sources say the leading suspect is a 23-year-old british foreign rapper fighting with islamic state terrorists. now fox's own kitty logan is standing by in london with the very latest details. kitty. >> yes. as you say there are now some unconfirmed details surrounding the circumstances of jim foley's murder emerging. we can't independently verify these details, but for example the british newspaper, "the times," says its forensic expert has analyzed the video of foley's murder. the paper says it believes the man who appears on screen
10:01 pm
alongside foley may not be his actual killer. one theory is that this man simply fronted the video for propaganda purposes. the alleged suspect is known as jihadi john and comes from london. the daily mail goes further saying his father is allegedly linked to al qaeda and currently held in a u.s. prison. now, it's thought that uk intelligence officials may well be aware of the identity of this man who appears in the video, but they haven't confirmed this. of course authorities may be reluctant to release information which could jeopardize other western hostages still detained in syria. one of those is steven sotloff, an american journalist. isis has threatened to kill him if the u.s. continues air strikes in iraq. but some good news, another u.s. reporter, peter curtis, was released yesterday. he'd been held by a different extremist group in syria for almost two years. now, there is a great deal of
10:02 pm
concern here in the uk about the involvement of british jihadis in the killing of jim foley and the kidnappings in syria. hundreds more have gone out to join isis in iraq and syria. there are growing calls for tougher action to be taken against them. even calls to revoke their citizensh citizenship, sean. >> you say this british rapper may have only fronted, but we see the video where he takes his head up and the knife in. why is it believed he isn't the one responsible? >> some analysts say, of course it's not verified information, they say that video, that part of the video, you don't see the knife with blood, they show foley being killed. some experts believe that at least another person participated in the actual killing of jim foley. but of course none of this can be confirmed at this stage, sean. >> kitty, appreciate it. meanwhile, there are new leads
10:03 pm
in the investigation surrounding the beheading of james foley including some significant information about the social media account that was used to post the execution video on the internet. and fox's own kathrine herridge standing by in washington on that. >> thanks, sean. the social media account used to post the foley execution video has been identified. the user's described to fox as a key part of the electronic evidence trail as a former fbi investigator explained. >> it's not impossible to hide, but it takes somebody who is very educated in not only the technology but also in the technology to investigate. >> a dozen social media accounts linked to the leadership, the data suggests the leader providing the blessing for the foley murder. the terrorist hid behind a mask,
10:04 pm
but he did not cover his hands and the counterterrorism source says that may have been a critical mistake. fox news is told investigators are also analyzing the skin tone as well as characteristics such as the pattern of veins on the hand which is as unique as a fingerprint. >> if you can get two pictures where, you know, the veins and any markings on the skin match up, i mean, there's just very few people who have moles and veins that are the same in their hands. it's pretty good in a court of law. >> foley's last letter to his family was seized by his captors, but one of his fellow hostages memorized the text and later gave it to his family. the dictated letter posted on facebook reads in part, i know you were thinking of me and praying for me. and i'm so thankful. i feel you all especially when i pray. and i pray for you to stay strong and to believe. investigators want a high level of confidence about the identification of foley's killers because the administration says all options are on the table and privately u.s. officials tell fox that lethal force is among them,
10:05 pm
sean. >> kathrine, governor perry said this weekend that it's very likely isis could have already penetrated into the united states through our southern border. you mention social media, in chicago this weekend and it's happened in other cities, you have people identifying themselves as isis, we are here. and putting it on twitter or other social media. how should we take that? >> well, what we know from u.s. intelligence officials from a recent briefing, sean, is that there is evidence that members of isis, these foreign-train fiegers, have at least gone back into europe either on their own initiative or they've been tasked by the isis senior leadership to begin cells outside of syria and iraq. here in the united states the evidence is not quite as strong, but it does indicate with these pictures or postings on social media that there are individuals in this country who are at least sympathetic to isis. and this social media campaign, this is really part of the isis senior leadership's effort to
10:06 pm
show that they have global reach. they really can go beyond syria and iraq at this point. >> all right. kathrine herridge in washington tonight. thank you. >> you're welcome. >> and we'll examine what kind of terror threat isis poses to the u.s. but first we turn to missouri tonight where black teenager michael brown was laid to rest today in st. louis after being shot to death by ferguson, missouri police officer. and after weeks of violent clashes on the streets of st. louis in that suburb, brown's family is calling for a day of peace in honor of the late 18-year-old. mike tobin joins us from inside sam's meat market, one of the stores looted during the protest last week. the family said that, but we do know his uncle says michael's blood is crying out from the ground crying for vengeance. so you have some saying for peace and some -- >> so you do have that contrast. and how that works for thehere can't get their business started
10:07 pm
again. look at the shelves where their booze business is. generally they buy wholesale but they can't fill a wholesale order because stock shelves, that would be bait to the looters. so they're buying their booze retail, paying sales tax on it and turning it around to the public. they're not even making enough money to come close to covering their payroll. that's from the liquor sales, meat sales, all the groceries. as far as the funeral itself, it was a big event. it turn into a who's who list for a guy no one knew three weeks ago. you mention the call from his uncle that his blood cries out for vengeance. this is a contrast to the calls for peace we heard earlier in the day -- or through the course of this funeral i should say. and keep in mind we still don't know what the grand jury is going to return. quite possibly the return from the grand jury are going to anger a lot of people who've been out on west flor sent avenue. sean. >> one of the things i wanted to know at this particular point in
10:08 pm
time, they were saying we may not hear from the grand jury until october? >> reporter: quite possibly through mid-october. but the one thing that the county prosecutor made very clear as far as a timeline, there is no timeline. grand juries do what they do. and it just depends on how fast they can get evidence to the grand jury. >> mike tobin, thank you. in ferguson tonight. although michael brown was laid to rest today, there was no shortage of fiery rhetoric surrounding his death in the case against officer darren wilson this weekend. take a look at missouri congressman lacy clay's warning about what might happen in ferguson if justice is not served the way he believes it should be. >> my concern if we do not get to the truth and get to what actually happened and bring justice to this situation, then there's going to be a problem in the streets. >> here with reaction is the family attorney for michael brown, darryl parks back with us. let me ask you in a broader context. you were involved in the trayvon martin case, that's where i
10:09 pm
first got to know you. you're involved in this case. do you know how many shootings took place in chicago this weekend? do you have any idea? >> i'm sure there were many, sean. but you know, i think one of the things that came out of the funeral today was that all of the violence in our community, even if it's committed by african-americans, we need a reduction in violence in our community. so we address that within the course even the service today, sean. >> well, there was six people dead, 42 shootings in chicago alone this weekend. another nine in new york. a 3-year-old died in chicago, two teenagers died in chicago. there was a case in salt lake city where a black police officer shot an unarmed 20-year-old white teenager. circumstances may be different. why are there certain cases that make it to the media's consciousness and others do not? or the activists consciousness and others do not? why is it? do you think some of it -- the
10:10 pm
question, do they have their own agendas here? do they show up here but not salt lake city? not chicago? where a lot more shootings are taking place? >> well, first of all, you can only be so many places. and i think that although they get a bad rap by some parts of our country, people who do civil rights work, it's a struggle. i mean, there's not money in it. it's not prestige. it's work. when you're trying to fight for people who in many cases thank you but some may not thank you for what you're doing for them. those are situations that other americans should help in this struggle to go to trying to help people who need help. >> daryl, last weekend 29 people were shot in chicago. this weekend 42 people were shot in chicago. you know, i don't see the protests. i don't see the anger. i don't see people going in the community and saying knock it off. the very same people we see in ferguson. makes me think they only try to
10:11 pm
capitalize or selective moral outrage when it's an issue that they think they can drive home a racial message. for example, in the zimmerman, trayvon martin case, it was a hispanic involved in that shooting against trayvon martin. but they tried in the beginning to make it black versus white, didn't they? >> well, i think it was just a tragedy. i think all of these deaths are tragedies. you know, when i sat there and watched michael brown's casket today there and saw the finality and the sorrow on his family, his mother and father, this was a tragedy. it's an american tragedy. all of these deaths are american tragedy. so something needs to be done about all these -- >> that's the differences. this case became about race. this is for many people this is about race and race only. by the way, i share your sympathy. i've told you this before, my thoughts and prayers are with this guy's mother. when his uncle says, you know, michael's blood is crying from the ground, crying for
10:12 pm
vengeance. and spike lee says what he said, you know, basically burn the place down afterwards or that he hopes that it really blows up, was the term he used. i'm thinking this is irresponsible. people that are supposed to be leading -- and here's the problem. you don't know what happened that day. you do not know what happened. i don't know what happened. and we have diametrically opposed versions that are out there. it's irresponsible without having the facts for all these people to make this
10:13 pm
>> michael's blood is crying from the ground, i still have anger on my heart. i still have revenge on my heart. you see, what i'm concerned about -- this happened in a case where i first got to know you, everybody rushed to judgment, then the testimony came in, but it was pretty compelling when you have an eyewitness talking about ground and pound, a very different story emerged. now we've got two die ya metrically opposed versions. we don't know. shouldn't the people there whipping people up into a frenzy saying no justice, no peace, they want revenge, it will burn down if the verdict doesn't come back -- isn't that irresponsible? you're an attorney. you believe in the justice system, don't you? >> i believe in the system. but let me say this, don't properly -- don't confuse asking for justice as them asking for
10:14 pm
vengeance. no one said do anything to anyone. no one's advocating that. but we are saying there's a great thirst for justice in the situation. >> if michael brown -- >> and justice will be had. >> if michael brown, if he did run towards the police officer, which is different than what dorian johnson who was involved in the robbery with michael brown said that he was shot in the back and he had his hands up. if in fact he was really running for that officer, legally speaking and you believe somebody's innocent until proven guilty, right? >> i do. >> then that would be justifiable use of force. you know the law and i know the law. so until the facts are in, everyone that's saying this is a race case, doesn't know what the hell they're talking about, do they? they really don't know the facts. >> and you shouldn't make it a race case. race is a bad subject. but this is a clear violation of civil rights. when that officer decided to shoot him, that was -- >> that's one version. if that's true that he was
10:15 pm
running away and he wasn't running back, remember we have the audiotape, somebody said he doubled back and went towards the officer. that's an audiotape i've played on this show. if he was rubbing away and had his hands up and wasn't moving, then it would be not justified. but if he was running towards the officer in a threatening way, kind of like he was threatening towards that store clerk, that would be justifiable by the law. >> let me say this here too, today we mourn michael brown. today is a day of mourning and calm. after today there are a ton of witnesses we could discuss on some later shows that get to the nitty-gritty in this case. >> all right, daryl, appreciate you coming back on the program. thank you. >> thank you. coming up, i'll speak with one of officer darren wilson's most vocal supporters. however, we've got to hide her identity. she fears for her life. we'll explain. and later, president obama sends three white house officials to michael brown's funeral earlier today. was that appropriate? and i go head-to-head with a top naacp official. that and much more as "hannity"
10:16 pm
continues. (radio noise) (phone ringing) what's up jake? that depends man, what are you doing? just cruising around in my new ride. oh, the one i'm not suppose to touch, right? you got it. guess what i'm touching it right now, craig. what you talkin about jake? with my voice. that doesn't make any sense. you let me in man, by answering and i like it in here. you're not touching it! touch is physical, your voice isn't physical. my sound waves are pouring out of your speakers, penetrating every cubic inch... stop disrespecting her! ooh and the dodge likes it. don't you dart? gets your filthy voice off her jake! if you're suffering from constipation or irregularity, powders may take days to work.

10:18 pm
who do we want? >> darren wilson. >> how do we want him? >> dead! >> who do we want? >> darren wilson. >> how do we want him? >> dead! >> all right. that was the new black panther party leading death chants against officer darren wilson after the shooting of black teenager michael brown. now, while we have heard from numerous supporters of brown through the the protests of the past few weeks, my next guest
10:19 pm
whose identity we are concealing for her own safety has been a vocal supporter of officer darren wilson. she's also the wife of a missouri police officer. and she joins me now. thank you for being here. why do you -- first of all, you started a facebook page. you got 66,000 likes or some odd number, very high number. why do you fear revealing your identity? >> because i have other people to protect other than myself. we have had death threats and threats to ourselves on the page through posting on the actual page and through messages. >> you called -- you said tomorrow is operation blue monday. explain what operation blue monday is. >> it's a way for us to show our support for law enforcement by wearing blue. we feel that's a way to get our message out without having to upset anyone.
10:20 pm
just showing our support. >> and that was for this monday, for today? >> it was -- it's for this monday and next monday. i have had people ask if we can do it every monday in september. and i'm absolutely okay with that. >> what is it that specifically is making you angry about this? because i'll be honest, i don't know what happened yet. and i'm trying to piece it together. you know, when i first heard the initial eyewitness reports, you probably heard them as well, one from dorian johnson who was involved in the robbery with michael brown, three people i saw on tv say the same thing, which is that michael brown was innocent, shot in the back, had his hands up, et cetera. and then a different story emerged. what is it that angers you about this case? is it that everyone's decided without giving this man a day in court or giving this man a chance to explain his side? what is it that makes you most angry? >> i'm not even sure i would go with angry. i would go with i put myself in
10:21 pm
this man's position. >> right. >> i do not believe that -- none of us know. nobody knows unless you were actually there that day what exactly happened. i am here as a law enforcement officer's wife to show my support for my family of blue. and that is why i started the page. >> what if it turned out he was -- he did the wrong thing? >> if officer wilson did? >> like for example if michael brown as some eyewitnesses have said actually had his hands up and was shot in cold blood, how would you feel then? >> i will still support law enforcement, yes. >> no, i understand your support for law enforcement. but, you know, this is specifically to support darren wilson. now, i think that there's been a massive rush to judgment here. and it's interesting -- >> absolutely. >> as time has gone on there's certainly been more doubt created. i've heard audiotapes, i've heard other people saying, you know, what injuries he may have
10:22 pm
suffered, the fact that michael brown may have charged at him. if those stories turn out to be true, that would be the justifiable use of force under our law. he would have the right then to defend himself and his life. but we just don't know yet. so why move to -- >> correct. >> -- support him. are you supporting his right to get more fairness? that there's been too big a rush to judgment? >> yes. >> is that where your indignation is? we don't give police the benefit of the doubt? is that what you're saying? >> correct. i feel like there was such a judgment from the moment they said who he was and his name. and i thought immediately this man needs support and he needs to know there's other people standing behind him that are here to support him. and we don't have to be loud, but we can show our support. and he can read everything that has been written and know that there are people here not just from the united states but we're getting messages from all over the world of support for this officer. >> let me ask you this.
10:23 pm
you've seen the graffiti, the only good cop is a dead cop. even from day one people were chanting get the police, what's his name, darren wilson, how do we want him, dead. very, very shocking. why do you think there is so much anger in some communities towards police officers? >> i don't think people that are making those comments understand that police officers are real people too. they have families. they're very passionate about their job. but that doesn't mean that they're not a real person. i think people forget sometimes that they are -- they're very proud of ha they do. but they're still a person like you and i. and i feel like those that say that are making judgments based on their job and their lifestyle rather than the actual person that they are and they're wishing death upon somebody they don't even know. >> thank you for being with us. appreciate your side of the story. and being with us.
10:24 pm
coming up, president obama sends three white house officials to michael brown's funeral today. when we come back, i go one-on-one with the naacp's hillary shelton. and later the architect karl rove is here for a rare in-studio appearance. he's going to school the administration on the real threat that isis poses to us here at home. that and more as "hannity" continues tonight. huh, fifteen minutes could save you fifteen percent or more on car insurance. everybody knows that. well, did you know the great wall of china wasn't always so great? hmmm...what should we do? geico. fifteen minutes could save you fifteen percent or more on car insurance.

the judge, jury and executioner. now even of the worst had hit in the face, does that require -- at a distance. i was that way shot about 20 feet, does that mean you shoot him six times, four times at point-blank range? i don't think so. >> i think the issues are really much bigger than what it's been portrayed to be. i've seen police living in inner
10:27 pm
city detroit, inner city boston, but i've seen a lot more situations where the police shade the situation. and i'm not sure this is a police versus black community issue. >> going head-to-head on this week the fox news sunday. then meanwhile earlier today thousands gathered in st. louis for the funeral of michael brown. among those in attendance multiple white house aides who were personally sent by president obama as part of a delegation led by cabinet secretary broderick johnson. meanwhile, over the weekend in the president's hometown of chicago there were 42 shootings in that city this weekend alone. this brings the total number of people killed by gun violence in chicago to well over 2,000 since obama's inauguration. here to discuss this is the bureau director for the washington naacp, hillary sharpton. >> great to be with you. >> 42 shootings in chicago, two males fatally shot by chicago police, a 3-year-old killed, two
10:28 pm
teenage boys killed. one 14 and one 16. we have an epidemic of violence in new york, chicago, detroit, los angeles. you pick the big city, you name it. and yet the president's decided to focus on this one shooting. but we don't know the facts here do we, yet? the only person that was judge, jury and executioner in that tape sounded like jesse jackson. he doesn't know the facts on the ground either. you don't know them, i don't know them. >> the facts we know are deeply concerning. you're absolutely right, we have a gun problem in america. >> i don't know if it's a gun problem. i think it's a violence problem. >> we have a violence problem as well. but we have violent people somehow finding easy access to guns. now, the issue here -- is the issue of policing. certainly what is the responsibility of policing? what we have here is a case in which an 18-year-old kid that would be in college right now as a matter of fact if he had not
10:29 pm
been shot to death by a police officer. some of the facts are clear. the fact is he was unarmed. the fact is he was shot multiple times at a distance. the fact is eyewitnesses say he was running away first and spun around as shots were being fired. so there's some very deeply concerning facts that have been shared thus far. but i agree with you, and that is we must have a very fair and confidential trial to determine the guilt or innocence of the police officer. >> stories saying michael brown shut the door on the officer, attacked the officer, might have injured the officer and then he "double backed," using the words of an eyewitness, and started charging towards the officer. the difference here is not small. the difference would be if he did in fact have his hands up and was standing, that would not be justifiable use of force. if he was running towards the officer, that would be justifiable use of force. so we don't know yet what happened, do we?
10:30 pm
>> not exactly. but we do know some things that happened. we do know what some witnesses are saying and this is the first time i've heard anyone saying outside the officer himself that he was charging towards the officer. the last eyewitness i heard of was the one that said actually he saw him as he was grabbing his abdominal area, crouching over and then continued to be shot. so i've yet to see someone saying he was charging in the direction of the officer. all the evidence thus far -- >> we have a youtube video that picked up the conversation. just to pick you up to speed on this. >> play that. i believe that was a little different than you're suggesting. >> the words were that he doubled back. and then we also have a st. louis -- >> doubled over was the term i heard. >> no, it was double back. i played it many times on radio and tv. let me ask you -- here's my question to you. in st. louis -- in salt lake city over the weekend did you hear about a 20-year-old kid shot by the police? >> i did. >> white kid shot by a black officer, the kid was unarmed? i haven't heard a peep about it
10:31 pm
from anybody else. >> we have got to address that as well. we have got to address that. >> we've got to address that, but we're not addressing it. al sharpton's not out there. hilary, they're not in chicago either this weekend or this week. >> but what you're saying is we have a policing problem. i agree with you. indeed when we look at the policies for police, clearly, they're not clear and being forced in a deeply problematic manner. whether it be an african-american kid shot by a police officer unarmed or a white kid shot by an african-american police officer. >> i agree with you. i think you're being fair. but here's the problem -- no, no, here's my point. this is a selective -- >> let's go to your point to talk about how we fix it. >> this is a selective moral outrage thing here. >> i disagree. >> people that have agendas that are whipping up the public telling people that the cops are guilty without any evidence yet -- we have not heard all sides in this. >> well -- >> racing to judgment. and i think what they're doing is really unacceptable in the
10:32 pm
sense they're exacerbating racial tensions in this country. and they are using one case to vaps their own racial agenda. and that's something i would think you and i agree on. that's not right to be working people up into a frenzy until all the facts are brought into this case. >> i think it's important the facts are brought into this case. >> and they're not now. >> they're unfolding. we're hearing many, many new facts. we've got an additional eyewitness now. actually talk about the case -- well there is. there was just a young man that came forward to say that he went back to get his video camera so he could videotape it. and he described what he saw, which is extreme lly incriminatg the police officer there. >> have you made up your mind? >> i made up my mind this guy needs to be tried for murder. there's no -- he must be tried. all the evidence must be brought
10:33 pm
forward. i am happily and greatly -- >> but i'm sure you would respect the grand jury's decision, wouldn't you? >> it depends on how they come by this as well. we've seen many faulty grand jury decisions in the past. we can go back and talk about the case of metger everetts. there are many cases we can talk about problematic in the past. we need a fair and balanced grand jury. make sure above reproach and quite frankly the approach we're talking about with this prosecutor also raises major concerns as well. want to make sure there's a good, clear, clean approach -- >> last question. do you agree with me to ignore what's happening in his own town of chicago, the reverend jackson, do you agree that the case in salt lake city, do you agree with those that are on the ground in ferguson and have been on the ground in ferguson have an agenda other than that of getting to the truth of michael brown? because i would argue that there
10:34 pm
is an agenda that exacerbates racial tension by many and that that has not helped the situation. will you concede that? >> i will concede that only because i think there's a huge issue here that has to be thoroughly investigated. >> i'm out of time. >> what i'm seeing is deeply troubling in a different direction. let's work together to do it. >> thank you, appreciate it. coming up, does isis pose a clear and present danger, to our homeland here in the u.s.? we're getting mixed messages from general martin dempsey chairman of the joint chiefs. karl rove weighs in next in studio. that and much more straight ahead. i'm randy and i quit smoking with chantix. for 33 years i chose to keep smoking... ...because it was easier to smoke than it was to quit. along with support, chantix (varenicline) is proven to help people quit smoking. it's a non-nicotine pill. chantix reduced the urge for me to smoke. it actually caught me by surprise. some people had changes in behavior, thinking or mood, hostility, agitation,

the chairman of the joint chiefs of staff general dempsey said isis is not a direct threat to the united states and he won't recommend sar strikes in syria against them just yet. that's a far cry from what people like former deputy cia director mike morell has been saying about isis. take a look. >> i think there's three things we have to worry about, two are short-term, one is long-term. the two short-term pieces are, number one, will they inspire somebody here to conduct an attack. the second is there's a number of americans, a number of canadians and a number of western europeans who went to syria to join isis to fight with them. any one of those could be directed back at the united states to conduct a small scale attack. over the long-term two and a half, three years, we need to worry about a 9/11-style attack by isis. >> here with reaction fox news contributor karl rove. the president referred to them as the jayvee. brennan back in 2011 said there's no -- the chances of an islamic caliphate, that vision is absurd.

dowd's. she wrote an excellent column. -- dedicated to proposition that all men are created equal. when it comes to spending as much time on the links as possible -- >> golf of the people for the by the people. brutal. listen, you're in trouble when you're barack obama and you lean maureen. you're in trouble when you lose "the washington post." you're in trouble when eight democrats, i believe it is, in a "new york times" piece eight members of the united states senate either went on the record or background saying the president did a lousy job and we have no relationship with him whatsoever. if that was simply a problem with the united states congress, my concern is that we had the same gap between the president and foreign leaders. they have no relationship with him. he does not engage with them. he does not talk to them. he has not rallied them to our interest and their interests. >> how do you analyze -- look, i was -- you were in the white
10:43 pm
house. i was never there. but my instincts, i always have a sense of urgency about everything i do in life. he doesn't have that urgency. >> no. >> he seems detached. i don't know how you go from giving a three-minute comment about james foley being beheaded to minutes later, you know, high-fiving alonso morning and going to play golf. i -- why didn't he go to the situation room. >> i have to defend him a little bit. i understand making mistakes like that. we made a mistake like that. president bush made a comment about israel and then said watch this drive. that caused him to say, you know what, i better give up golf as long as i'm president because it sends a wrong message to our troops. president obama has that example to look at. he knew what was coming. this operation -- this was the gang in 2012 shot straight every time. we're knocking the bottles out of the air, they were shooting nickles and dimes out of the air. today they can't shoot straight at all. think about it, he does that, he also comes back to washington
10:44 pm
and with transparency attempt saying i'm leaving martha's vineyard, spending a lot of jet fuel in air force one and not even a photo op. >> we have a big election in how many? >> 70. >> 70 days. a lot at stake here. that is especially the united states senate. a lot of races we're watching. how many pickup potentials do you see for the republicans? if the election were held tomorrow, who would win? >> i think we'd win montana, south dakota and west virginia if the election were tomorrow. now, it's not tomorrow. so all three of those candidates have got to work and raise money and run very strong campaigns. but they are ahead by double digits and looking in good shape. four red states, alaska, arkansas, north carolina, which will be settled in november and one louisiana that will have a primary on election day and be settled a month later. i think we have a good shob we will take absolutely two of those, in all likelihood three
10:45 pm
and could take all four of those. if we take three, we take the senate. but then there are other possibilities popping up. joni earnst, lightning in a bottle in iowa. and we have five other races, oregon, with monica webby, mike mcfadden in minnesota, terry in michigan, ed in virginia and scott brown in new hampshire. and my gut tells me of those five two or three of them come into play here. we may be starting to see om of that in michigan we're only four or five points down. new poll out in new hampshire i think is a little too rich for us but has scott brown down two and the primary is not until the ninth. he's only getting 70% of the republican vote and he's two points down. mcfadden is doing really good things and franken is running a weird campaign where he's basically trying to pretend like there's no election. monica has a lot of pizazz and personality. and ed is running a picture
10:46 pm
perfect race in virginia. the question is those other five while they're longer shots is there a way that allows a well uncampaign to jump on the wave and surf. not going to be settled by much. these contests, i think, at the end of the day are going to be relatively close. the number of votes separated the democrats and republicans and some of these contests -- >> when all said and done republicans versus democrats? >> could be 53-47 -- >> thanks, karl rove. coming up, a controversial rapper calls for a moment of silence for michael brown at mtv's music awards last

10:53 pm
people felt it wasn't the right time to that. >> just to talk about the divide in the country, doi have a problem for a moment of silence for the deceased mr. brown because it's only going to make people more angry, once we get facts, and this officer is not indicted or not convicted, then it's going to say, okay. this poor man was killed unjustified. it's going to create more anger. i don't think those things should be done without the facts. >> david you're on the ground doing great reporting last week. why haven't we gotten specifics about the officer's full story? >> one of the reasons is we're in the grand jury process. it's going to go to the grand jury. evidence is going to be presented. wilson has an opportunity to testify if he so chooses.
10:54 pm
>> there are witnesses witnesses will corroborate his story? >> yes. and we shouldn't paint ferguson as one sided down there. i talked to people concerned about education, and court system. this bubbled over, so throughout the instigators and people that want to draw conclusions on this. and focus on the people of ferguson. >> i understand that. >> i would like to point out kardashians were texting during that moment of silence. >> such an important ♪
