that may be one of the deadliest serial killers in american history. wow. tragedy. so many innocent people and their families. we pray for them. we will always be fair and balanced. let not your heart be troubled. the news continues. she is in the swamp, the sewer, laura ingraham. >> laura: can you do me a favor and stop saying the word sewer and then say laura ingraham. i need a buffer sentence between that and my name. >> sean: i will figure it out. >> laura: hannity, i have a question. i have a question. my question to you is i seem to remember you cook your turkey for thanksgiving. >> sean: i do. >> laura: do you cook it in a pit? don't you dig a pit or

something? >> sean: master build has the butterball turkey fryer. it is safe. it cooks twice as fast. the best, juiciest, most delicious turkey you've ever had in your life. i will make one on the air before thanksgiving if you are in new york. >> laura: i think it's lovely that you invited michael avenatti to come. that's a gesture only you could have thought of. it's very generous. >> sean: he should have done this for kavanaugh. he didn't. but i believe it across the board. these principles -- you are a lawyer. you know this. too important. >> laura: i agree. all right, i'll be waiting for my turkey. i am laura ingraham and this is "the ingraham angle" from washington. an important and fun show for you. stay with us. drama continuing, i can't believe we are still saying this, and florida. the rick scott charging

broward county election official brenda snipes with intentionally missing today's deadline because the result shows he had more votes. the latest updates in moments. my angle is going to tackle the latest with the aforementioned michael avenatti, not just the latest felony assault charges he faces but the complicity the left and the media share. what could possibly be controversial about president trump posthumous posy awarded elvis presley the medal of freedom. what happens when a doctor and a millennial who does vaping take on the latest fda push for regulations on the e-cigarette situation. breaking news out of florida. unprecedented statewide henry cohen to underlay following five-day machine recount of the more than 8 million votes cast

in last week's election. the secretary of state there ordered hand recounts in the senate race between bill nelson and his challenger republican governor rick scott. this isn't just in broward and palm beach counties. the order gives canvassing boards in every single one of the sunshine state 67 counties three days to pre over thousands of ballots rejected our machines. go to phil keating in riviera beach. >> the same two florida counties and new election issues once again. palm beach county where we are, they missed the states recount deadline. the only 1 of 67 counties to do so. broward county got there results in 2 minutes too late, meaning five long days of hard recount

work down the electoral drain. the machine recount shall republican rick scott gaining in votes and his lead over the original results. scott leads by .15%. hand counters will go through all the problematic ballots which had under votes and over votes to see if that changes anything. also in the closely watched governor's race, the recount results stayed on was exactly the same, with republican former congressman ron desantis leading tallahassee mayor andrew gillum by .41%. still close but avoiding a hand recount. while broward county celebrated after midnight when it completed recounting the ballots, today's election staffers uploaded its results to the state at 3:02. they were due at 3:00 sharp. the original numbers will be the ones made official. not everybody was happy down there in broward and the word

tonight of a staffer "i worked my ass off for nothing." >> i believe strongly it was not a human effort. it was mechanical. we are required to present a report of the secretary of state and that's what i'm going to report. >> because of that, senator nelson has now filed a new lawsuit late this afternoon against palm beach county and the state. he wants all of palm beach county's ballots, the entirety of it, recounted by hand. new hand count of the under and over votes due to the secretary of state by sunday. laura. >> laura: thank you. today's order for recount, more evidence of potential dirty tricks by democrats in florida. naples news reporting florida democrats plan to use altered forms to fix mail ballots across

the state actually imposed deadline. these altered forms were reported to federal prosecutors so that they could review the potential election fraud. second, after u.s. chief judge mark walker ruled thursday that voters should have until saturday to correct signatures on ballots, a win for senator nelson, fox news learned that karen d walker, the wife of the judge had previously donated to sumner bill nelson's campaign. shouldn't that have led to recusal? joining me as pete dunbar, an election lawyer in florida. overseeing many recount efforts. and harmeet dhillon, that attorney and rnc committee woman. i want to get to judge walker about pete, what can you tell us about the seeming dirty tricks from the florida democrats with regard to these altered forms. >> it's nice to be with you. we've been hearing rumors about this for the last couple days. i think it is now taken the appropriate course of action so

it will be looked into. i've been in the florida political arena now for about five decades. this is the first time we've seen something quite like this are the allegations quite like this from either the two parties. it's troubling. it will be processed appropriately. after the governor-elect was confirmed today after the machine recount, the waters here in florida are combing a little bit. >> laura: it's about time. no reason they should continue happening and florida, frankly anywhere, with modern technolog technology. harmeet, i want to play this. a two minute suppose they did missing the deadline late deal. >> and broward county, what's amazing is that they finished the count 2 minutes late. they submit the results 2 minutes late so they will not be counted. >> in that case, i mean, a law

is a law or do you let it in? >> laura: you're not going to let it in, harmeet, if it's going to help the republicans. >> almost an 800 vote advantage for the governor. that's why i think there's suspicious about it being a potential missing of the deadline. >> laura: when you keep hearing the refrain republicans are saying voter fraud, no voter fraud at all. this is just a process. you're raising a red flag for no reason. how should we speak about this given these irregularities that have been reported and people like brenda snipes has become the poster girl for this type of corruption. >> it is fraud. first of all, rick politely referred to the fact that the democratic party in conjunction with officials of the democratic party actually sent out altered forms to several thousand voters in broward county. statewide. they did so called chasing effort but they only sent them to democratic registered voters.

their only interesting and corrected the signatures for democrats, not republicans. this judge who seems to have a conflict went ahead and extended the deadline. that's organized. it wasn't one-off. isn't a mistake. thousands of ballots, thousands of forms going out with false information deceiving voters about their right to correct their ballots. >> laura: pete, what i'm concerned about in the hand recount, this effort to discern the intent of the voter. if the ballot is rejected by the machine because it was either i guess it could be an under vote. no, there was something on the ballot that was wrong? you spill your coffee on it? i don't know what it is. if it is not read easily by the machine, the attempt to say well, if you voted for desantis, you would have voted for nelson or if you voted for the democrat agriculture commission, how odd that you didn't vote for nelson. this is the kind of thing people look at and say maybe people

don't want to vote for these people. maybe that's why they didn't vote. >> i think you're right and i think is what happens. they will look to examine but it's possible for the machine to reject ballots that might have a smudge on them. if you mailed in your ballot and you happen to fold over one of those items and it may not be the races that are in the close contests, the machine will kick it out and it needs to be examined. the canvassing board is pretty balanced and i think fair. there is a circuit judge or a judge, supervisor of elections, county commissioner. both sides are allowed to be there and be present while the decision is being made and if they want to object to it, they can. here's the other interesting point for what it's worth. if you look at the volume of the universe of ballots that are now narrowed and what remains an issue, it's not going to change the results. much like we saw on the governor's race, i would tell

you that the results that were given on election night, i think in the governor's race after 8.2 million votes, the recount showed there was a one-vote differential and it went to the governor-elect. i think we're going to find the same process to be true. while there is the issue for the legal ballots when it's all said and done. >> laura: this is when i'm concerned about. harmeet, last comment. the republicans always seem to be outflanked by lawyers on the ground. the democrats are always ready for this. were going to do this. rick scott has his own money and he has a lot of money in his campaign coffers. he was smart to take this right to the court. some of these other races across the country, the republicans didn't take the same approach. >> i would agree. we've been caught flat-footed in many races where lawyers on the ground could have changed things. unfortunately that didn't happen so i hope they learned a lesson for 2020. were really going to need to do

that and have lawyers in every race. every congressional candidate needs a lawyer on speed dial. >> laura: the rules have to be applied across the board. if you don't fill in your ballot right, it's not about that should count. only legal votes count. if you can't follow the rules and figure out how to fill in a bubble, sorry, no one should have to hold the ballot to the light and figure out how you voted. thank you, harmeet and peter. another big race that still has not been called. georgia governor's race. republican brian kemp has 55,000 vote lead on democrat stacey abrams, but she refuses to concede, claiming racism. and she's claiming voter fraud. trace gallagher's live in our west coast newsroom with that story tonight that he's been following. >> the campaign of brian kemp and stacey abrams, federal judge seems to have made a split

decision. the judge rules absentee ballots need to be reviewed and the ones previously rejected because of incorrect birthdates must be counted. to the benefit of the kemp campaign, to be clear, the abrams campaign isn't hoping to pick up enough absentee votes to win back the election. instead they are trying to extend the election. they believe by getting a 17,759 votes, it will bring brian kemp low 50% and force a runoff on december 4. the kemp campaign calls it possible saying "after all the theatrics, the math remains the same. abrams lost on brian kemp won. election is over." in in case the math doesn't add up, the abrams camp is on to accusing brian kemp of wrongdoing. saying that he essentially

cheated. >> unequivocally we believe brian kemp mismanage this election to sway it in his favo favor. >> though the campaign offered no evidence which has not stopped democrats outside of georgia from also using the s word, here's ohio senator sharon brown. >> if stacey abrams doesn't win in georgia, they stole it. it's clear. it's clear. >> it's clear but again no evidence. hillary clinton and new jersey senator cory booker also say without evidence the election was not fair. by the way, the deadline for all vote counts in georgia is november 20. expect more lawsuits to fly before that. >> laura: thank you. maybe we should extended through the new year. let's go all the way to 2020. let's never ended. thank you for that report. our next guest just wrote a terrific piece titled "the real reason stacey abrams won't concede." joining us know someone who

knows more than most about georgia politics, he writes a lot about it. founder of the research and, eric erickson. it's great to have you. you heard the report from trace. why was this so ugly from the start? why is it at the place now or she's trying to force the recount. what's going on really? >> you have to go back to 20 202014. stacey abrams claimed she could get elected by doing registered or drives. she has to explain to her donor donors. she wants to run against senator david perdue in two years. she thinks she can move into a runoff in december. the secretary of state's race isn't a runoff but there's a key point. the secretary of state in georgia plays no role in the election other than making sure the ballots are uniform so we don't have florida style

problems. the secretary of state role doesn't become effective until after the election is over. kemp resigned before playing that role. every problem the democrats have highlighted are actually local elections officials most of them and democratic counties. >> laura: from the beginning they have been trying to push the narrative. that if you don't vote, you are betraying your ancestors' past. number two, the idea that brian kemp by cleaning up the voter rolls which i believe bella is obligated to do that he is actively trying to suppress minority voting. respond to that. >> there's a question of whether minority voters decided not to vote because the abrams campaign was telling them it's not going to count anyway and kemp is going to steal it. the kemp campaign, the secretary of state is required by law in odd-numbered roles to clean voter rolls of voters who haven't voted in seven years. democrats saying that there was

votes taken off the rules this year. that's true but the secretary of state george is prohibited from removing people from the rolls in election years. those were local officials who were removing voters who have either died, been convicted of a felony. >> laura: why is sharad brown and kamala harris getting involved? kamala harris is running for president in 2020. sherrod brown, i'm not making that connection. >> there's going to be a secretary of state runoff in the democrats have a chance of winning so they're trying to keep democrats inflamed and impassioned. this all goes back to a democrat strategy after 2000 in florida where they decided that key to winning was to win secretaries of state races because they presided over voter rolls. they've been making claims about brian kemp. democrats want to win myself te

secretary of state office. >> laura: her campaign mentioned it today. >> i would like to remind everybody that his last official act as secretary of state was using that body as a taxpayer-funded arm of his campaign and issuing a press release. that said i am the victor. the next day he is standing saying he's governor-elect. we reject that. >> laura: i'm happy to have that loop play morning, noon, and night. that would be really good for the republican party in georgia. your response. >> the math doesn't add up for her. there are no more votes outstanding. all the counties have reviewed even the absentee ballots now and there normal -- there are e votes. she consumed all she wants to try to keep democrats focus on the runoff for secretary of state but she will never be

governor of georgia. >> laura: this is about more identity politics, trying to register more people to vote leading all the way to 2020. thank you so much for joining us tonight. you won't want to miss this. tonight's angle tackles the media and the democrats' michael avenatti problem. the angle after this. today...

speak to avenatti's assault on democrat its credibility is the focus of tonight's angle. since trump entered his run for the presidency in 2016, democrats and their media sycophants have been on an absolute mission to not just defeat him but to destroy him. and all those around him as wel well. they are also blinded by their hatred of all things trump so

much so that they have hitched their political wagons to a cast of radical unsavory characters that looks like a reunion of the suicide squad. enter michael avenatti. a two bit tax cheat and celebrity attorney reborn as crusading lawyer to porn star trump accuser stormy daniels. >> the president trusted mr. cohen as his fixer for years. he trusted him with his innermost secrets and i think that the chickens are about to come home to roost. >> laura: they are coming home to roost, all right. as a battering ram against donald trump and later his super important on many brett kavanaugh, avenatti was elevated by the left. the media couldn't get enough of avenatti. he went from huckster hard-charging plane's lawyer to nationwide brand. his face was suddenly plastered all over tv.

this profile from "vanity fair" is my personal favorite. there he is, the race car driving lawyer with a shaved head and well defined cheekbones who launched a thousand hard i imo jeez. i don't think i can continue. going on to talk about salacious rumors. "i don't fake fake. i do moisturize. at one point last spring he was getting 100 to 125 interview requests a day. he was soon a featured guest at glittery events as well. maybe they confused him with the rapper pitbull. their political and entertainment media, they worked

overtime to showcase all things avenatti. >> thank you very much. you saw this coming. you are putting a lot of chips on what was going to happen with michael cohen and what it would mean for your case but today your stack is a little higher. michael avenatti, thank you very much. avenatti has been getting fed information that's more true than not. >> what he's doing on tv is his business. we are going to bring in a key player from all of this, michael avenatti, he sees it differently. >> laura: curiously neither cuomo nor don lemon covered avenatti's arrest last night by the l.a.p.d. on domestic abuse charges. huh, wonder why. last night anderson cooper did cover michael avenatti's post-prison press conference. >> i appreciated. thank you. >> michael avenatti, released

from custody. we are going to continue the follow story. more breaking news in the russian investigation potentially development as we wait for new moves from special calls for mueller. >> laura: wait, wait, wait, i missed it. it was a drive-by mention. move on to the next topic now. go, go, go. from weinstein to sharpton to louis farrakhan and now avenatti, the democrats of the pattern of aligning themselves with cd figures even if it means betraying the democrats espoused have advanced their cause. the democrats are more than happy to sell out basic principles of decency and fairness in their efforts to take down trump and frankly anyone connected to him. at least avenatti was forthright in his intentions. >> i believe that our party, the democratic party, must be a party that fights fire with fir fire. so i say when they go low, we

hit harder. >> laura: isn't that what the woman who is accusing him is saying? the democrats should've seen the flameout coming. tried to cheat his law partner, evicted from his own offices, willing to cast his lot with a sad figure like daniels. a guy who stooped even lawyer to peddle julie swetnick's defamatory claims against kavanaugh. avenatti was an arrest waiting to happen here last month senate judiciary committee chair chuck grassley made a criminal referral to both avenatti and julie swetnick for making false statements to congress. this was some guy that the left seriously considered as a presidential contender for 2020. for months, clinton alum adam

has been shuttling avenatti from democratic party event to democratic party event and nurture familiarize avenatti the whole process of running for the presidency. the vermont democratic party actually canceled avenatti's appearances this weekend following his arrest. well, in a twist of fate, the man who urged us to believe the women making wild decades-old allegations against kavanaugh now has a change of perspective. >> i have never struck a woman. i never will strike a woman. i have been an advocate for women's rights my entire career and i'm going to continue to be an advocate. i'm not going to be intimidated from stopping what i'm doing. >> laura: i have a question. can you advocate for women's rights behind bars? i guess they do have desks set

up in prison. howell democrats and liberal women who embrace this would be trump slayer react to this? he is innocent until proven guilty. i said that last night but will cnn give even a fraction of the airtime to his accuser as they did to his clients? don't hold your breath. that's the angle. when we return, reaction to my angle and a further examination of why the media so desperately wanted avenatti to be their golden boy. later, what happens when a millennial vaping fanatic faces off with a doctor warning against the practice? this can't missed debate later in the show. managing my type 2 diabetes wasn't my top priority.

until i held her. i found my tresiba® reason. now i'm doing more to lower my a1c. once daily tresiba® controls blood sugar for 24 hours for powerful a1c reduction. tresiba® is a long-acting insulin used to control high blood sugar in adults with diabetes.

don't use tresiba® to treat diabetic ketoacidosis, during episodes of low blood sugar, or if you are allergic to any of its ingredients. don't share needles or insulin pens. don't reuse needles. the most common side effect is low blood sugar, which may cause dizziness, sweating, confusion, and headache. check your blood sugar. low blood sugar can be serious and may be life-threatening. injection site reactions may occur. tell your prescriber about all medicines you take and all your medical conditions. taking tzds with insulins like tresiba® may cause serious side effects like heart failure. your insulin dose shouldn't be changed without asking your prescriber. get medical help right away if you have trouble breathing, fast heartbeat, extreme drowsiness, swelling of your face, tongue or throat, dizziness or confusion. i found my tresiba® reason. find yours. ask your diabetes care specialist about tresiba®. >> michael avenatti, iom and apology. i've been saying enough already. i've seen you everywhere. what do you have left say? i was wrong, brother.

you have a lot to say. democrats could learn something from you. you are messing with trump a lot more than they are. >> laura: why didn't we use that for the angle? that's the best one ever. back now to tonight's angle, avenatti's assault to democrats credibility. let's see what the panel thinks. sean duffy and attorney scott bolden. scott, let's start with you. avenatti was all about the women. you've got to believe the women. what does she have to gain? what do these women have to gain after christine blasey ford got a million bucks from go fund me? >> he is their lawyer and he's advocating on their behalf. he's articulate, telegenic and he's fighting. speak to a heck of a right hook. it's a joke. come on. >> he is innocent until proven guilty and with him and his clients, the women come he's got

witnesses, complaining witness, corroborating witness. >> laura: and a criminal referral. >> that is politically driven. that's not going anywhere. an affidavit she signed. >> laura: you think people should be able to accuse men with impunity? she was mistaken when you going to have to take a long way to prove she lied. >> laura: are we waiting for michael avenatti's two witnesses he claimed saw brett kavanaugh put grain alcohol in a punch bowl. >> the senate judiciary committee would get to the trut truth. probably would've talk to them. >> laura: even you can't defend this avenatti character. >> character? he's a lawyer. >> saying that we need the constitution and innocent until proven guilty but for republicans, guilty until proven innocent. >> i don't believe that either but i believe avenatti has clients who have made accusations against the

president and they have cooperation and they are listening. >> laura: can't relitigate kavanaugh. >> i am talking about stormy daniels. they never did get corroboration because the committee never went. >> laura: if you are going to defend julie swetnick. she's a nightmare. completely outrageous and false and kavanaugh, two words, life tenure. where does this go for the democrats? they always complain republicans are willing to sell their souls for trump and they believe these things they didn't used to believe and for trump, i always believed in his views on immigration and trade so it doesn't apply to me but that's what they say. this guy is a piece of work. i would take the allegations from yesterday off the table, his other behavior in the other stuff. >> i think the guy is a scumbag. here you have a guy, attractive

man, well-spoken and willing to be a pit bull against donald trump and you will have every liberal network put him on tv to bash the president. take down the supreme court nominee. when this story comes out, i thought it was fascinating what you played. cnn talking about this story and then back to robert mueller. >> laura: four seconds. we have to admit that was so obvious. get off the story now. we have elevated him for months now we can't report this. i will voters reacting to a possible michael avenatti run for the presidency. seemed pretty excited. let's watch. >> would you potentially vote for stormy daniels' lawyer michael avenatti? >> i probably would. >> i would lean that way. >> laura: that was in august. i don't think they will be doing those interviews anytime soon. >> maybe not about politics and

elections are about we liken voters vote for with a leg regardless of their policies. he's an attractive candidate. he has no political background or record, don't get me wrong and i'm not sure he could make it to the democratic primaries with so many other democrats running. it's an interesting story. i don't think it has a lot of depth. >> laura: would you ever fail to pay your law partner like millions of dollars that your law partners owed on the case? the judge ruled a $10 million verdict against avenatti cheating his law firm. >> would you ever vote for someone who's been accused of groping 20 women? g.o.p. voted for donald trump. he's accused of lying on his taxes. not you, but the g.o.p. voted for him so why not avenatti? i'm not a big fan of avenatti. >> donald trump had an agenda. michael avenatti is only anti-trump. listen, this is all they run on.

i'm anti-trump. >> this is a hard argument i'm making. >> laura: hold on. >> it's an anti-trump movement. >> laura: it worked for some of these house seats. democrats took it for some of the house seats. maybe they think they can win the presidency with it. i don't think you've heard the last of michael avenatti. i said innocent until proven guilty last night and you can't believe someone just because they made an accusation even though he didn't give that same courtesy to other folks. >> he was probably set up. >> laura: alexandria ocasio-cortez has says she can't afford an apartment in d.c. i don't know what the congressional salary is paid >> 174,000. what's unique is when i ran for congress i had six kids and i said i struggled to pay my bills and the left went wild. struggling sean duffy. now alexandria ocasio-cortez says she can't afford an

apartment. poor working-class girl from the bronx. the coverage is outrageous. >> laura: how many people had much money? you go to craigslist. you have to live with a bunch of people like everybody else. >> it's expensive and if you don't work and you have six kids and your wife is not working. i had six kids and she had six pairs of shoes. >> laura: let's be honest because sean earned a lot of money with the thing you did. lumberjack sports. you won a lot of big prize money. >> d.c. is an expensive town. we have stories of congressmen and one senator sleeping their office. but i don't understand about the media is what's the angle and making a big deal out of your challenge or her challenge? what does it mean? >> laura: because the median income in the united states is $51,000 and that's with three kids. >> she hasn't started her job

yet. >> before you start the job. mine was before i started the job as well and i can't afford a nice little flower like that either. >> oh, my goodness. >> laura: it's a version of "i had to walk to school 5 miles." how many bathrooms did you have growing up? >> two. >> two. 11 kids. >> laura: i had one. one. six people in the house and one bathroom and we all survived. thank you so much and what could possibly be controversial about president trump posthumously awarding elvis presley the medal of freedom? wait till you see the message "the washington post" says it sends. stay there. this one's ridiculous.

>> ♪ let's rock ♪ >> laura: greatest music video ever. elvis pressley, an american icon, adored by millions, has been selected by president trump to receive the presidential medal of freedom tomorrow. while most would view him as a well deserving recipient, "the washington post" apparently could not help but take a shot at the president. writing "a little nod to the good old days back when black visionaries could invent rock 'n' roll but only a white man could become the king."

ridiculous? how unhinged have actually become going after elvis. joining me now set to discuss i it, horace cooper and jonathan harris. elvis is just cool, okay. i didn't like the 1972 elvis as much but that elvis was cool. he embraced black music. he wasn't trying to hide black music. "the washington post," really, this is what you're going out? >> i'm not a huge fan of alice. might be a generational thing. i think the optics look weird. of all the people you could affect, you're going to pick someone many people at least feel to some extent or another appropriated black music because it wouldn't be embraced by black artists, that it was raised by a seven white america because a white artist was doing essentially black music. why would you pick someone like that in 2018 with all the racial division that he's caused and he inherited as much as he caused and pick someone like that? why? >> laura: is elvis a racist?

>> no, i don't think elvis was a racist but the optics of what he represented was racism. >> laura: what? what? >> he said we will take -- the south said we will take black music as long as it was packaged in a white guy. >> laura: i think that was a fact of. i think you could probably make the argument that without elvis, you wouldn't have had other musicians, down the road, al green or even some of the gospel singers who went back even. elvis and became more popular, post elvis because of the rise of that type of music. i think a lot of people were brought in the spotlight who wouldn't have come into the spotlight without that kind of meteoric rise. i do think this is actually comedic that we are talking about elvis and the fact that this sends a racist message.

is it another dog whistle, horace? >> the left has jumped the shark. >> laura: that saying has jumped the shark but that's okay. >> this individual was so accomplished, he sold albums that blacks, whites, browns, america enjoyed. america celebrated. he was america's hero. absolutely he ought to be. it's a real shame that people would look at his achievements and say we want to hold it back because we think this is somehow a secret dog whistle for a racist agenda. >> laura: if the president had picked michael jackson who was called the king of pop. >> i was thinking donald trump and michael jackson were very close. he could have picked something like that. no racial controversy. >> why didn't barack obama pick him? >> laura: why didn't obama pick michael jackson? >> elvis has been dead for at least a couple minutes. why are you picking elvis?

>> laura: there were a lot of people who are legends. he was the most influential. i don't think anyone can argue, the most influential person of the time in american music. it was music that was threatening to the new generation obviously, people thought it was a threat. they didn't like it. they didn't like his moves. i think you can argue is a liberal that elvis was really what ushered in obviously the beatles, the rolling stones, all the way down to the who. little richard. they love dullness. little richard loved elvis. i think you could talk to him today. >> millions of americans go to graceland. it's a ridiculous -- >> laura: have you ever been to graceland? i have never been. let's all go together. we could film it. come on. >> to bring up him as a divider when he actually united americans with music. >> laura: i'm going to turn you into an elvis fan. you're going -- who's your favorite? >> michael jackson. >> laura: i love michael jackson. i'm going to turn you onto

elvis. he going to like elvis. when i play you the old gospel elvis. you will love it. nancy pelosi has been thrilled with one finger that may be not is as uniting is elvis and mrs. al sharpton. let's watch. >> thank you for helping take back america. people all over the place are calling me, writing, thank you for saving america. i give those thanks to you. thank you for saving america. reverend sharpton, thank you for saving america. >> laura: i think she said that four times in one click. she was at that national action network legislative policy conference. an organization founded by sharpton. did al sharpton save america? it's a check on nancy at this point. >> he saved america from racial harmony. >> i will say no, there's a lot

of things he's done that are problematic. >> problematic? >> you are a trump supporter. we are not going to get into that. >> he's done a lot of things that are problematic. nancy pelosi is referring to the fact that he's done a lot to take on racism. >> stop racism by causing racism. >> laura: we are going to vaping. i wish you could stay for this segment. we have a millennial vaping fanatic facing off against a doctor who was against it. it's time to get out of line with upmc. at upmc, living-donor transplants put you first. so you don't die waiting. upmc does more living-donor liver transplants than any other center in the nation. find out more and get out of line today.
