radical. this makes sense. even though they got off to a rugged start, gave joe biden his first bludging on the debate stage. kamala harris scored big later taken do you by tulsi gabbard, ainsley. but, they are together and they are going, to i guess, make their announcement today at some point together wearing mask without an audience. >> steve just held up "the new york post." it sass kamrads for kamala harris. joe biden and kamala harris will deliver their message to voters this afternoon. steve: griff jenkins is live in washington to the newly minted biden-harris ticket and what we can expect today. griff, it sounds like they will get together at the hotel dupont in wilmington. griff: that's right. the reaction from democrats across the board is one of just rejoicing. congratulating her. come from all the vp contenders

who didn't get picked from former president obama, to hillary clinton and bernie sanders. so the daughter of indian and jamaican parents will make history of the first woman of color on a presidential ticket appearing at that hotel in wilmington. we are not sure the exact time. worth noting, guys, this is not the first time she made history. california's first attorney general. then she was elect to the senate in just 2016 where she has become best known for her prosecutorial style and being tough during hearings like this. >> i think the american public has seen quite well that you are biased in this situation and you have not been objective. and that would arguably be the conflict of interest. >> and she has established some recent positions on issues like calling herself a progressive prosecutor. she has helped attend legislation will no knock warrants. for universal background checks. flip flopped on medicare for all saying it should include some private insurance. and called for the study of

reparations. meanwhile president trump, not surprising, wasting no time going on the attack. >> she was very, very nasty to one of the reasons that surprised me she was very -- she was probably nastier than even pocahontas to joe biden. >> that of course, a reference to the debate stage that we saw where we saw harris very aggressive towards biden now, of course, they are friends. the trump campaign has already started running ads casting harris as too liberal to be in the white house. the ticket is set. now we have got a race, 83 days to go. brian, steve, anxiously? steve: and they are off. brian: kamala harris was very tight with beau biden and joe biden was shocked in the first minutes in the first debate standing shoulder to shoulder it was kamala harris went after joe biden. while she was growing up joe biden was in the senate already. and he was talking about busing and segregation.

those were hot issues then. one talked about it. one lived it. and listen to this clash that joe biden never saw coming. and then how it was followed up. >> to hear you talk about the reputation of two united states senators who built their reputation and career on the segregation of race in this country. you know, there was a little girl in california who was part of the second class to integrate her public school. and she was bused to school every day. and that little girl was me. >> it's a mischaracterization of my position across the board. did i not praise racist. i agreed everybody -- i know, my time suspect. i'm sorry. >> go easy on me, kid. brian: he said go easy on me kid. steve: at another event. brian: unbelievable launch huge crowd great speech.

after that debate she fell off a cliff and finished off by tulsi gabbard in a way in which she never recovered. ainsley: let's bring in our political panel new york columnist miranda devine along with georgia representative and lifelong democrat voting for president trump vernon jones and trump 2020 senior advisor katrina pearson. welcome to all three of you. >> good morning. >> good morning. >> miranda, i will start with you. what do you think about this pick? >> well, i think she is formidable. she is certainly the best of the bunch he was thinking about. she is there to slice away voters from donald trump in crucial states. north carolina, michigan, pennsylvania, arizona. and her attorney general credentials are important because they will sooth the worries of nervous voters who have been horrified by the violent riots. and she is a -- she will now

pitch herself as a moderate. she and bernie and biden are the moderates. but, of course, their manifesto along with bernie sanders just puts the lie to that. you just have to look at the policies they are bringing, not the soothing words that they are going to be saying. steve: we have heard a lot over the last couple weeks about how joe biden has boxed himself into a corner regarding his pick because he famously said he was going to bring on board a woman and then james clyburn of south carolina who essentially saved mr. biden's candidacy pressed him for a black woman. and then the sanders wing wanted somebody super progressive like elizabeth warren but, ultimate ultimately, kamala harris is a much safer pick for the electorate than elizabeth warren. >> well, first of all, i think they should call flop because she flip-flops. joe biden has the right string

but the wrong yo-yo. she is liberal. she will say anything she can to get elected. as you know, she said or she was biased when it came to busing. so he antibusing. she also believed the women that accused him of sexual assault. and so how can you believe in someone who is a racist, someone who has committed sexual assault but you want to be on his tickets? that sounds like blind ambitions over really the black community and black voters i have even heard black women say that was a bad pick. you will see i think president trump got probably one of the best announcements yesterday than he has had this campaign season. brian: creefn, we bring this to you no doubt about it extremely bright. she is experienced. in terms of the issues, when you go deep, she flips because she does not know how to answer because, instinctively, she has to think about what's better for her politically. and miranda was being diplomatic when she says she brings a moderate tone to the ticket.

not really, because it seems to me black lives matter in chicago, seattle, portland, alba co-workery, new mexico, miami, florida. they don't really want a moderate, do they? >> well, no. absolutely not, you know. to that point, kamala harris is someone who called law enforcement, you know, the equivalent to the kkk. and she said this publicly. and that's not a moderate law enforcement, yes. that's not a moderate thing to say and joe biden clearly has a pick that should raise red flags for the democrat party because this just proves what the trump campaign has been saying for months now and that is the polls are wrong. if it were true that he was winning by over 10 points or that he had the black vote locked up, then this pick doesn't make sense. we are confident in welcoming kamala harris to the race. we have a wonderful opportunity to contrast the trump-pence record with thought biden-harris

ticket. we are excited to get out there because our president has spent four years undoing the damage of 50 years of failed policy from joe biden. ainsley: so, vernon, democrats are energized by this but the president is saying that she is the most liberal choice. how is that going to fair in the flyover states and in the south? >> well, obviously, she is not going to do well in the south being liberal. as a matter of fact, we're trying to see who has the best record on locking black men up her or joe biden at the same time when you look at she prosecuted people for both misdemeanor marijuana crimes happening behind bars. that says who she is and what she is. again, this is about blind ambitions. she is only in it for herself and not the american people. again, coming from california, she supports these democrat mayors and governors who do not believe in supporting law enforcement. as a matter of fact, want to defund law enforcement. she is all over the place. she is flip flopping like i don't know what.

but, we're delighted she doesn't have a chance in georgia and other southern states. again, this was a good day for president trump. president trump has a better record on helping black men and women than kamala harris had. then joe biden h and if this story gets told. more and more african-americans are coming his way. that's what they're afraid of. they thought by getting kamala harris that would help them save the black vote. but that was the wrong person for that job. to do that. and so we're excited to take her on and take on biden and we are going to see how much they are going to campaign from their basement collectively. steve: it will be interesting. i don't think she is going to stay in the basement. i hope not. i don't even know if she has a basement. but, miranda. let me ask you about this. now that joe biden has finally made his selection, and now people are going to be learning more and more about her exactly, kamala harris, ultimately, the real head-to-head is going to come when she is across the

debate stage, socially distanced from mike pence. how will the two of them do? >> that's right. and, look, he is a gentleman. and she is an absolute killer partisan. and, you know, she brings charisma and a certain amount of youth to the ticket that none of ther three men possess. so, i think she is going to give him a run for his money. but, of course, the real matchup is between her and president trump. because nobody thinks that joe biden has it in him to barely last his first term. so -- and she is ruthlessly ambitious. you can know that she is going to be very kick to push joe biden out of the way as soon as she gets a chance. so, she is looking at being president, not just vice president. brian: what's so interesting and i have always thought vice president is an important job in my lifetime in the beginning they were doing nothing.

and now they have got significant jobs. mike pence, for example, what he is doing now with the coronavirus and is in charge of getting the testing going. we know the vice president had the ukraine policy. we know that quite well. we also know he was in charge of the $800 billion. bring in katrina' point, katrine biden won't finish his first time 39 percent said it's highly likely. did joe biden just name in many people's mind on the left what they think will be the next president? >> well, yeah. absolutely. this is what we call his political living will, this type of progressivism and activism that you will see in kamala harris. to miranda's point, people are looking at the matchup between kamala harris and president trump. and, again, this is something that we are absolutely willing to do considering joe biden's policies of implementing policy that actually locks up mass incarceration of black men.

kamala harris actually enforced those policies in contrast with president trump and vice president pence who worked on bipartisan legislation. so, again, end some of the damage that has been done by these progressives. so, this is going to be a very interesting campaign considering how our president has created generational change for the black community. running against a candidate who wrote and implemented these policies and a black female who actually enforced them. ainsley: miranda, what do you make about the media? how is the media going to handle this in their support for kamala? >> oh, you have seen it already. i mean, the "new york times" is just spinning the democrat line saying that she is a moderate. i mean, your guests have said she is no moderate. but she is going to be very good. it's all about casting their message and what katrina just said is not a negative or, you know, it's not a good attack line for the republicans because that is exactly the sort of

reassuring message that they are going to be casting into those swing states suburbs by democrats horrified by the violence and may have blamed the law and order president. she is going to go there and they are going to their settle message is going to be yeah, i was the tough cop on the beat and i am going to be tough once out from under pretending to be a left winger. i can really do what i want to do. so don't worry, nudge, nudge, wink, wink. it's a double game. and it's very clever and very difficult to combat. it's got to be combated in a very tough way. in saying that, no, do not believe these people. they are shape shifters. they are comedian com are not m. they are not conservative. they are not for law and order. they are the opposite. >> i think the facts speak for

themselves at that point because she has already supported defunding the police protesters. people ravaging cities today. i really don't think that the idea of what kamala wants to create is going to resonate more than the facts actually happening on the ground. steve: as i started to say, vernal none, yesterday at this time we didn't know who joe biden's pick was going to be. some suggested it could be susan rice. the president himself said that choice is problematic. now we know it's kamala harris. yesterday the president said that was actually his first choice of who to square off against. it's interesting when you look at the history of donald trump and kamala harris, he actually donated when she was attorney general of the great state of california something like $6,000 in 2011 and 2013 and his daughter ivanka donated $2,000 in 2014.

if she was so bad why were they donating money to her. >> one thing asking for money one thing run against him. that's going to come out. everyone knows again kamala harris is for kamala harris. she is not for the american people. she is selfish. she is blind with political ambition. that is going to get her in trouble. i'm telling you right now, most people can see right through that smoke screen. you know when someone mentioned earlier about her having a debate with president pence. let me say this about president pence, he is a smooth, he is cool. he is calm and collected. he has been in government and congress and serving as vice president. is he going to chew up in the most gem and fashion as you can imagine and if she comes up against the president, well, you know what happens when candidates come up against president trump, they get trumped. brian: so, miranda, i'm really, i'm very curious to see what's going to happen. as i mentioned, she opened up with that great speech with the

big crowd. all that momentum and hollywood stars behind them. she fell apart. she wasn't prepared for this thing called questions. questions on where you stand on medicare i want to get rid of private insurance. questions what's going on on the border. i want to give illegals insurance. i don't see any reason for law enforcement. then questions about her background when she is putting people in jail for long-term for marijuana charges and jailing parents when their kids cut school. so, she had no idea how to defend her own record. what's changed in the next few months? i'm very curious to see if the cement dried on her beliefs. >> well, that's right. i think that's her achilles heal is she is a flip flopper. phoney. no authenticity. something not warm about her. women, you saw she did so badly in the primaries, what did she

get? 2%. she might look like the full package. when it comes to people judging her, especially women, i think they feel there is no warmth there. so, it will be interesting. i think we will see how well she is doing if donald trump ends up dropping, as some people have suggested, mike pence to nikki haley just to shore up those slices -- it's all about the numbers. those slices of voters. brian: do you think that's going to happen? do you think is he going to drop mike pence for nikki haley? >> look, i don't. and i have written against it. not to do it. but i have spoken to people who say that depending on how the polls are doing, it wouldn't -- it doesn't mean mike pence is out of the picture. he would get a good job. substantial job in the administration. brian: wow. >> still part of the team. brian: it would be a disaster. >> if it's all about numbers and trying to slice and dies dice w

extra numbers and polls aren't looking good he would do it. ainsley: sorry, vernon, i'm going to get to katrina. i saw you shaking your head. i also want to ask you. she is a woman, the first black woman to be put up for a major parity as vp. a lot of people are going to go to the polls just for that reason. what do you say to them? oh, we just lost katrina. brian: what a shame. ainsley: we will ask that question to two other guests. thank you all three for being with us. how did kamala harris get to be biden's running mate. our next guest ran against her in 2016 and says she only cares about power, not policy ♪ the open road is open again. and wherever you're headed, choice hotels is there.

what happened during that debate and what advice do you have for vice president pence when they debate each other? >> well, kamala is light on policy. what brian said. great line when is the cement going to dry? it never does for her, because she is so political she will switch her views to the moment. mike pence is deep on policy. is he very respectful. i think he will wipe the floor with her because on a one-on-one debate you actually have to answer certain questions. and she is not good at that she didn't answer the questions in our debate. and she was called out for it but it still didn't stop her. ainsley: tom. give us some examples. how has she flip flopped? >> well, take the issue on being a da or not being a da. it's true, when she was there except for the death penalty she thought it was a good idea to have some of these draconian penalties. but now, with the american left saying they want to defund

police. here she is calling comparing ice tout kkk. here she is supporting the protesters. if you are a real da, then you would stick with that view. ainsley, i do want to point out, remember, she finished terribly. it was last, i think, november that i predicted on "fox & friends" she wouldn't make it to iowa. why did that happen? because she was so weak in california. she was fourth or fifth in the polls in california come november and december. so even the people of california didn't like the way that she was switching her views and seemed to be social climbing in politics. ainsley: all right. tom. thank you so much for weighing in. >> all right. good to see you. ainsley: good to see you, too. 27 minutes after the top of the hour. new york city mayor bill de blasio hipsd paint a black lives matter muller but blocking a blue lives matter muller and two pro-police groups are suing him. the founders of both join us live next.

we have not received any response. did not get a response but whenever the mayor openly came out and said he will not allow anybody to paint anybody on the street without a permit that's when we decided to sue because he admitted there was no permit process for the black lives matter muller. >> you are shaking your head. let me ask you tell what you bill de blasio said i want to paint my thing on the street if you can paint your thing. i think it's a message about human respect and value of human respects. one group amongst us in particular has been devalued for centuries that can't go on. that's why he says he can paint his muller and you can't paint yours. >> well, basically, the reason why we want to paint our muller is to honor the memory of those officers that were fallen that gave their lives as a sacrifice we want to boost the morale to

the nypd officers that scorns and defunds them. i'm a retired detective that holds a very good significance to myself. brian: joe, you know this phrase well. were you insulted by black lives matter or were you just wanted to know that black lives matter? >> no. they have something that they believe, in that's perfectly okay. with regards to us working together to put something down, we also believe in something. what people forget is decades ago people came to ellis island to new york city it was the hub. a place where you could live the american dream. some politicians put certain people on a pedestal. brian: joe, in particular shootings up. we surpassed last year's shooting number. fatalities will it will shot two died. crime going through the roof and people heading for the hills. what role do the police play in standing new york up again? do you feel helpless to fight

list. wasn't she? >> well,

one of the positions let's get rid of private insurance. let's get rid of ice. let redirect money out of law enforcement. these are not mainstream ideas that are going to solve the problems of this country. they are going to take us in the wrong direction. that's why i think trump and pence are sitting in a great position and when america wakes up to what biden and harris bring to the ticket. i don't see anybody who gets enthusiastic about that. ainsley: jason, she checks a lot of boxes. she is a woman. you had 100 black artists, filmmakers say you are not going to win joe biden if you don't choose a woman of color. sso he did that. like brian said, she has a great

record when it comes to education. she is very bright. she has experience as an attorney general and now as a senator. but, is she motorcycle toast? does she have like you were saying maybe not enthusiasm? are those credentials, those boxes that she checks, is that enough to win? >> i think america is going to reject her and joe biden because of their ideas and their policies. i recognize the historical significance of her joining the ticket. but, i have got to tell you that is starkly different than, for instance, barack obama had a lot of excitement. bill clinton has a lot of excitement. donald trump has it in spades. but mitt romney didn't have that kind of excitement and biden and harris? i mean, they are about as boring of a ticket as walter mondale. i just don't think anybody jumps up in the morning and say oh, i can't wait to hear what they have to say today. that just doesn't happen in america. steve: we are going to hear what they have to say today in

steve: joe biden has chosen kamala harris as his running mate but it wasn't too long ago that they were clashing on the debate stage. will they now be united going forward? of course they will. how does that impact things? fox news political analyst and author of taken for granted gianno caldwell joins us from miami. famously they clashed on that debate stage. but that's what happens on a debate stage. now they will make nice and go united together, right? >> of course they will. and for democrats i'm sure some, especially the establishment types are excited because kamala harris, senator harris can put together put together a coherent sentence. however senator harris is the 2020 version of hillary clinton disingenuous flip flopper who will say and do anything to win. and this is going to prove to be problematic when they begin to

run these commercials when they are running what she said against joe biden against joe biden and, of course, some of her positions that don't coincide with what joe biden's message is here's the interesting take i think, for this election it will be a close election where every vote will legitimately count. i know we say that every year. this will be the closest election i think in our nation's history. for joe biden, he needed to present a vice president candidate that was going to excite people and everyone else on this network has said the same thing, kamala harris, senator kamala harris is not exciting to people and specifically, not exciting to young african-americans. i was on a social media site called the shae room 20 million followers on instagram. and african-americans go on this site every day. one person posted this yesterday. don't let the complex jade you. she is responsible for locking up plenty of black folks. this got 18,000 likes on the shade room. they want to get these young people to support the biden candidacy.

i have a feeling because of kamala harris being chosen, especially someone who has been problematic when it comes to criminal justice, they lost a lot of young african-american supporters by this pick. steve: what about the fact that, you know, joe biden also needs to get the bernie sanders voter? >> he does. he does. steve: the problem is joe biden is pretty centrist and, you know, is she progressive enough? a lot of people say absolutely not. >> well, here's the thing. joe biden will be whatever you want him to be. and that's what it comes down. to say. steve: that's politics. >> not quite. one of the things that made donald trump a very interesting candidate for a lot of people in 2016 is because he was authentic and he was authentic at times where some people didn't like it. you know, people talked about the kamala harris donation that he made in 2016. well, trump was very plain and clear with you. he said i donate to all politicians because i want to own them. i buy them. i get them to do what i want them to do. for some people luke how my god

how can some people say that he authentically said that is he not going to move off a position because it polls well. stick with gut and keeps going. the democratic side is a totally differential ball became go. they will do whatever they can and do to win this election. that's where it becomes problematic for a lot of americans. steve: donald trump did donate $6,000 when she was running for attorney general of the great state of california. gianno, thank you very much for joining us today from miami. >> thank you. steve: thank you, sir. great insight. coming up on the top of the hour, acting dhs secretary chad wolf and mollie hemingway in the second hour of "fox & friends" live from new york. put down the remote. you don't want to miss a moment. ♪a ♪ pronamel will help push the minerals back into the enamel, to keep the enamel strong. i know it works. and i hear nothing but great things from my patients that have switched to it.

be joining us from the hotel i do points where i believe they are going to be together. if anybody could ask a question we know peter can. ainsley: how is he feeling that he is not the pick though? steve: joe biden said it was going to be peter doocy and now it's her. he tweeted about that yesterday. all right. anyway, thank you for joining us on this awfully busy wednesday and in their first appearance later today as running mates, joe biden and kamala harris will deliver their joint message to voters this afternoon. of course, they will be socially distanced. brian: griff jenkins is live in washington with the reaction to the newly minted biden-harris ticket and what we can expect today, griff. griff: brian, ainsley and steve, good morning. let me tell you about my reaction. i'm a little bit surprised because the one time primary rival who savaged biden on the debate stage will now appear alongside of him in running mate and make history as first woman of color on the presidential ticket. it's elating democrats across

the board from former president obama to hillary clinton to bernie sanders and, of course, all the other vp contenders who didn't get picked. they are all congratulating her. this is not the first time harris has made history. she was california's first female attorney general. then elect to the senate in 2016 where she is best known for her prosecutorial style and being tough during hearings and taken pretty progressive distances on issues like border crossings, medicare for all and gun reform. >> if someone crosses over the border illegally it is illegal you would decriminalize it? >> i would not make it a crime punishable by jail. i strongly believe that we need to have medicare for all. >> i will give the united states congress 100 days to pass reasonable gun safety laws and if they fail to do it. then i will take executive action. >> harris calls herself a progressive prosecutor. she helped penned legislation predicting chokeholds and no knock warrants. called for called for universal background checks and called for

the study of reparations. president trump wasted no time going on the attack. >> she was very, very nasty to one of the reasons that surprised me she was very -- she was probably nastier than even pocahontas to joe biden. griff: the trump campaign has already running ads casting kamala harris as too liberal to be in the white house. we are going to. as you said, ainsley, 83 days to go and anything can happen. ainsley: we will continue to keep everyone posted. some more about her record. she co-sponsored the green new deal to eliminate oil and gas in 10 years. she supports banning all fracking. supports a ban on plastic straws. she wants to ban guns via executive order. get rid of private health insurance and replace it with medicare for all. then there is that controversy. remember during the primaries she was on stage and joe biden, she challenged him on the debate stage over his resistance to federally mandated desegregating buss? listen to this. >> to hear you talk about the

reputation of two united states senators who built their reputation and career on the segregation of race in this country. you know, there was a little girl in california who was parted of the second class to integrate her public school. and she was bused to school every day and that little girl was was me. >> that's a mischaracterization of my position across the board. i didn't praise racist. i agree everybody -- i know, my time is up. i'm sorry. >> so easy on me kid. ainsley: that first sound bite they clashed on stage and then that second one you saw was the next debate when he said go easy on me, kid. people were wondering if he was going to pick her because of that many say hey, it's politics that kind of thing happens. steve: people were expecting her to go after him at that second debate after the comment on busing. but she really didn't. she did at one stage say that

when joe biden talked about how he had worked with a couple of segregationists in the senate to get things done, she later said that was hurtful to her. the big question is now that she has finally been named is we heard -- we hear all the time that the trump voter is an energized voter. they can hardly wait to vote for donald trump. the big question is now that kamala harris is part of the joe biden team, will that energize the joe biden base? we do know that the president and his campaign already put out an ad, you saw part of it yesterday here on the channel. and the president yesterday referred to her as phoney kamala so that probably is going to be her nickname. he was also on last night with sean hannity and here's what he had to say about kamala harris. >> a lot of people think it's a dangerous choice. i think, you know, she is the most liberal personal, supposedly in the senate. that's pretty liberal. but she is supposed to be the most, i'm not sure that's what

the country wants. she wants to raise taxes. she wants to get rid of your second amendment. she wants to cut the military. she wants to cut spending for the military. and the vets. and, you know, i don't quite get the choice. but we will have it out. we have a great vice president named mike pence. and he will take care of business just like he did the last time against a different candidate. steve: you know, and we heard during the vetting process, you know, this is taking so long because the vice president and his team are vetting everybody. but she was already vetted when she went through the campaign over the last year on the presidential level. also at the stated level. and so as she and joe biden go forward. starting today, brian, the biden team knows that they can trust her not to make mistakes out on the campaign. brian: she did terrible on the audition. great opening speech. 20,000 people. even president trump at the time said pretty good speech a lot of

emotion. and then she fell apart. she couldn't even get through one primary. she had one great moment at the debates and then tulsi gabbard tore her apart. we will see that a little bit later. how is this resonating with those people protesting and destroying chicago, portland and seattle. this brianna joy gray sanders, a former national press secretary for bernie sanders, i should say. says we are in the midst of the largest protest movement in the history. subject policing. democratic primary chose a top cop and author of the joe biden crime bill to save us from trump. and another progressive journalist walter bragman says crime bill author joe biden gets top cop kamala harris for vp as racial justice and police abolition protest continue across the country. so not happy. i thought sarah palin's added a vice was pretty strong too. trust no one and don't get muzzled -- trust no one new and don't get muzzled. now, in terms of what kind of ticket they will be, what kind of policies they will have, keep

in mind, if they take the senate and they take the white house, barack obama is urging them and so is every democrat get rid of the filibuster. their agenda will be our national policy and congresswoman jay powell weighed in last night on what kind of influence the left will have on this so-called centrist ticket. >> as soon as we get them in the white house and even before when these task forces that we h we were able to significantly push joe biden to do things that he hadn't signed on to before. is he movable the question is that going to be your policy is that going to be your statement? you can't be law and order and support the cops and support the same agenda and support the jail-time agenda of those young

people destroying every major city in the name of name of unrest socialist and not liking america. pick a side. because if you pick the side of logic you are going to lose a lot of shirtless skateboarders who they claim will be voting. ainsley: oa lot of referendum on trump i think the establishment. the old democrat i don't think they like what is happening in the democratic party turning so progressive. however, they are willing to vote for that because they don't like president trump. it's going to be up to the pro-trumpers to go out there and vote if they don't want this country to go down that road. if you look at their record, kamala harris, you heard her, she just said no matter what they say on the campaign trail, we can push them around. we can move them to change their votes once they are elected. so, first, put them in office and then we will worry about the direction of the party. i mean, if you look at -- if you look at kamala harris' record. we have gone through some of the

things but she praised la mayor's for slashing the lapd budget by $150 million. she wants to raise your tax. she wants to get rid of your private health insurance. if you like your insurance plan, she is going to say goodbye to it. she chaired immigrations customs enforcement ice to the kkk. you have to ask yourselves, when you go to the polls, who do your views align with here? steve? steve: she has also called for reparations as well. the big question is now that she has been named and we talked about this a little bit throughout the entire program, is will people vote for joe biden because kamala harris is the vice presidential nominee? watch this. here is jason chaffetz. >> bernie sanders said he would be the most progressive president in the history of the united states. you have members of the squad saying that joe biden is totally pliable. don't worry about it, folks. we can just push him further and furnished to the left. i would believe all these people. i think he has taken some of the

most radical positions in the history of this country. these are not mainstream ideas that are going to solve the problems of this country. they are going to take us in the wrong direction. that's why i think trump and pence are sitting in a great position and when america wakes up to what biden and harris bring to the ticket, i don't see anybody who gets enthusiastic about that. steve: we have one other sound bite for folks to listen. to say gianno caldwell who was with us a little while ago, he also echoed the excitement factor. watch this. >> senator kamala harris is not exciting to people and specifically not exciting to young african-americans. i was on a social media site called the shae room. 20 million followers on instagram. african-americans go on this site every day. one person posted this yesterday. don't let the complex jade you. she is responsible for locking up plenty of black folk. this got 18,000 likes on the shade room. they want to get these young people to support the biden candidacy.

and i have a feeling because of kamala harris being chosen, especially someone who has been problematic when it comes to criminal justice, they lost a lot of young african-american supporters by this pick. steve: and then there are the bernie sanders supporters who wanted somebody so much more progressive than joe biden. is is she going to do it for them? stay tuned. it doesn't look like it right now. all right. 7:13 here in the east. thank you very much for joining us on this busy wednesday. jillian joins us from the mezzanine level right now with the weather. jillian: that's right. good morning. at least two people are dead as the midwest cleans up from a powerful storm. hundreds of thousands still without power from the rare der derecho.

what you are seeing in portland and seattle and new york, chicago is really the democrat road map for america. >> president trump addressing the violence in america's major cities after his meeting with law enforcement team. our next guest was in that meeting acting dhs secretary chad wolf and saw the chaos in portland up close and personal. three months and still a mess. chad, mr. secretary, i should say. first off, sings i left, the violence continues. are you surprised? >> no, not particularly. what we know about portland is that they foster an environment that allows this type of violence to go on. we saw that for almost 60 days at the federal courthouse. as you indicated that violence has now shifted to the left and the right of the courthouse. it's now focused on the portland police department in different facilities that they have around the city. but, as you indicated, brian, there is over 75 nights of sustained violence night after night after night. i think that's very, very

co-worker. dhs will remain in portland, will remain there to protect our facility because we don't know where these rioters and where these criminals are going to move from night to night. >> mr. secretary, what do you now know about this antifa castoff or sect that you didn't know before you put your people on the ground? >> yeah. i think what we saw there in portland is very organized activities focusing on destruction of that federal courthouse. we saw it organized. we saw movements late at night that is similar movements that you would see law enforcement. you saw training. you saw the organization there that this is a coordinated attack against that courthouse night after night after night. we saw some new tactics. we saw blinding lasers shined in our law enforcement officers' eyes that was a new tactic that we have seen. we are having to adjust and we are adjusting. we are seeing those same tactics. the same thing that they did to that courthouse for 60 days now

shifting to the local police. brian: mr. secretary, i think the most obscene thing is a lot of people are going to the cameras and says it's not about me. it's not about racial justifiable anymore. it's not about george floyd anymore. it's about socialism, hatred of the country. take down our system. remnants of this. but now it's taking root. what are you going to do about it? >> yeah. and it's funny. that's exactly what we have been saying for 45 to 60 days. that this has nothing to do with the peaceful protested that we see in portland. nothing to do with that national dialogue that we talk about regarding george floyd's death and police -- law enforcement practices. what we saw in portland, that violence is just criminal activity and we need to call it that i think they are seeing that elsewhere. we are going to continue, again, to be in portland. we are going to continue to surgery sources. dhs will continue to surgery sources in cities across this country when there are direct threats to federal property and federal law enforcement

officers. brian: mr. secretary, i also know they are protesting at your house. carmen best police chief of seattle just resigned. here is what she said about her situation on the ground and why she did it. >> this is not about the money. and it certainly isn't about, you know, the demonstrators. i mean, be real. i have a lot thicker skin than that. it really is about the overarching lack of respect for the officers, the men and women who work so hard day in and day out. >> do you understand the frustration and -- i know you respect the decision did. she make the right decision? >> well, i will leave her decision, you know, to herself to describe that but, you know, the comments that you just played right there i absolutely agree with i think what we see with this politicization of law enforcement attacking law enforcement, defunding law enforcement, it's having an effect. and what we see with criminals throughout the country at the heart, they are violent opportunists. and they see an opportunity here to take advantage of law enforcement and to do the

rioting that we saw in chicago two or three nights ago. violent rioting because they know that police are on their heels. local politicians and even federal politicians have a role to play. it's very, very disconcerning. i see it from my own law enforcement at the department. we need to make sure that we continue to support law enforcement officers who wake up every day, put a badge and that uniform on and protect their communities. we need to make sure that they do that in the right way, professional, but we need to be able to support them and give them the resources to do their job. brian: this whole protesting outside officials house which continues in front of your house shows about the sacrifice. you aren't doing it for the money or the fame. and now your family is starting to pate price. mr. secretary, thanks so much. brian: all right. coming up straight ahead. kamala harris is the first black woman named to a major ticket on a presidential party. but our next guest says even that may not be enough to satisfactory every democrat. we'll discuss it. ♪ you got to be tough

general flynn and how unfortunate it was going to be that all of that was going to be back out in the and have to discuss those things again and maybe be justice. i stepped away from my phone a minute and have lunch and i'm back and late in the afternoon and all of a sudden it's camla. the first thing i thought of that girl was me. remember in the debate where she literally took joe biden apart. she pealed the skin off of him roasted him and had him for lunch over the fact that he opposed busing back in the day and she was a little girl bussed to another school district. so she has really played this up this idea she is a traditional black american like myself and some others who count themselves black people descended from slaves. she is descended from slave owners. interesting dichotomy who he chose and what he did that for. joe biden chose kamala harris because she is a black woman. to say most black americans she is not. there is all of that racial pandering and that's going to be the center of her candidacy and his candidacy as going for the

president. and ainsley, i think it's kind of sad because what we should be arguing about is who has the best policy ideas? who can put jobs back into the economy? who can make our foreign policy make sense? we're not going to discuss that we requesting to keep talking about race. ainsley: how do her policies effect the african-american community, the asian-american community? because her mother, her mother is asian, indian mother. and her father is from jamaica. how do her policies effect those groups? >> well, okay. so. >> okay. kamala harris supports the green new deal. she also supports criminalizing border crossings. giving illegals access to our healthcare system funded by taxpayers and increasing taxes on hard-working americans. so ainsley, i know there is this big thing about her mom being indian and father being gentleman make can and all of j.

the bigger issue is what kamala believes. in she believes in tax and spend big government policies that destroy economies and president trump believes in the opposite. what he has actual shown for the past three years. i'm hopeful that people will look past all of the discussion about her ethnic background except the fact that she is not black like me but she is a part of the black experience in america because that's how she sees herself and look into what she truly wants to do to us and it's a horrible picture she is painting with her policy ideas. >> it is historical call. she would be the first african-american vice president. the first indian -- or asian-american vice president. what does this mean for the young black woman, for the young indian woman? >> well, so, i tend to look at it more as so if he had chosen her because he truly thought she was the best candidate. so if joe biden said i looked at all of these people, men and women. everybody was on the table. and i chose kamala harris

because she brings a swing state to the equation, she brings accomplishments to the equation, something of that nature, then i would absolutely say this is historic. ainsley, the announcement is that he actually told us six or seven months ago that the only people he was considering were black women. not because of their accomplishments but because of the black vote that he wants to garner that by just simply putting any black face on the ticket next to him. so i think it's kind of a sad day that we had this historic moment but we have to adistrict it to someone pandering for votes instead of looking at the accomplishments which there are many, many millions of accomplished black women in america. he didn't look at them. he looked at kamala only because of her race. ainsley: stacey, thanks so much for joining us. >> thanks, ainsley. ainsley: the media rushing to praise kamala harris after joe biden's announcement. >> clearly a great campaigner but she is also good at governing. >> she is a trailblazer. she is warm. >> mollie mollie hemmingwayway says they have got it all wrong

a great writer and you could have written the fact that that would have been the reaction from the mainstream media. >> well, it really is an extreme thing to say that kamala harris is a pragmatic moderate just because factually speaking that's not the case. she has the most liberal voting record in the senate. she is more liberal than all the other democratic senators. she is right there with bernie sanders and elizabeth warren in terms of her voting record and legislation that she sponsored. no matter what the issue is. she is very much on the left. whether it's abortion or guns or government programs to ostensibly deal with climate change. whatever the thing is. she has been on the far left. really interesting that the media decided to spin her as brag that the particular moderate. they did that because they know that's what joe biden should have done or what you would do if you were trying to win back all of those voters that the democratic party lost in 2016 when hillary clinton ran against donald trump. brian: a couple of things. some things a little bit

different about her record. she jailed parents if their kids missed school. she actually put longer sentences for people marijuana charges at the same time she says without thinking, really, medicare for all, get rid of private insurance. let me walk that back with jake at that point per the next week. she didn't prethink a lot of these major issues that you could see like a bullet train coming right at you which i found stunning. a lack of preparation. for lawyers that's counter intuitive that's all they do is prepare and read, you would think. now, here's a question for you. i watched ari fleischer last night. excuse me, karl rove. his advice for the president was. i don't care what harris says. go after biden. you are not running against kamala harris. she is a crisper speaker. she can finish sentences. she can -- don't go after her. do you agree with that tact for the president starting today? >> not at all. in fact, i think that most presidential campaigns you learn a lot about a campaign by who

someone picks for vice president. you saw that when donald trump pick the mike pence he was signaling i am going to be as conservative as i said i am going to be. when bill clinton picked al gore he was saying this is going to be an administration that is a more moderate democratic administration. joe biden's decision or whoever made the decision to pick kamala harris, that is a very -- it's important decision signaling that joe biden hasn't just renounced all of his formerly, you know, slightly less progressive left positions. but he is really digging in to that by picking someone who california far left democrat, that's an indication of where the administration will be if they're elected. if it's true in a normal campaign, it's all the more true when you have someone like joe biden who is of advanced age who all but said he wants to hand the power over to the next generation who has a lot of people have concern that he might not be able to fill out a term again just because of age and other issues.

so, absolutely, i think you should take biden seriously and the democratic party seriously when they put someone like kamala harris in power and a lot of americans remember, you know, her positions on guns, abortions, other things, they remember she was a rung leader of the anti-kavanaugh circus where she did so much that angered a lot of americans in terms of you who the democratic party tried to destroy the life of brett kavanaugh simply because they didn't want him on the supreme court. >> there is a group called we have her back. they penned a letter to the media on august 6th before he picked kamala and they are asking the media to avoid stereotypes when they are covering his female vice president pick. and they say they are going to monitor the media. to make sure the media is not sexist or racist against her. they said. this they said we intend to collectively and individually monitor coverage and we will call out those we believe take our country backwards with sexist and/or racist coverage as we enter another historic moment

we will be watching you. do you think that's justified and needed or is that an inappropriate threat? >> i think it just must be night to be a democrat where you are get all of this help from outside groups and whatnot. a lot of people remember how the media and other people treated sarah palin when she was the nominee. the vice presidential nominee. there were no holds barred in attacking her and using every type of sexist trope out there. so it's very nice that these people very late to the game are deciding that that shouldn't be done. but a lot of what they said is actually just an attempt to control people's speech. that's inappropriate. women are just like men. they are people with personalities and characteristics and it's okay to comment on them. nobody should be sexist whether they're being sexist against men or women. there is a lot of attempt to not say accurate things about people if they're women. that's not appropriate and not something that the media should kowtow to. kamala harris has a good reputation or bad reputation as someone whose staff really tries

to control what the media says about them. it would be important for the press to retain their independent although they haven't done a good job with that in recent years. steve: now we know she is his pick and today it starts. mollie, thank you very much for joining us today. >> thank you. steve: exactly a quarter before the hour and jillian joins us with more news and what's it about? jillian: let's start with this headline. democratic ro khanna is slamming nancy pelosi over the house taking a month long recess. the break comes as lawmakers remain in a dead lock over coronavirus legislation. ♪ ♪ jillian: it looks like we do not have that sound bite but i will tell you more. he says he is still in washington advocating with a deal with the white house. the white house returns september 14th. the search is underway for a suspect accused of stealing president trump's campaign signs. the man caught on camera snagging a sign off a front

attorney general in the united states. explain. >> well, certainly, i mean, of course, being from california is really not hard to do. one thing can i tell you is this election to us is about safety. it's about crime. and it's about victim's rights. and if you look at kamala's record as attorney general, some of the prosecutions she made and some she didn't, she certainly supported sanctuary cities and oopen borders. talked about having vote from prison. she was not tough on felons. it was a homicide where a san francisco police officer was killed. she didn't seek the death penalty in that case. there was the msi -- ms-13 gang member who killed a father and two sons. didn't seek the death penalty there as well. so her record from both a prosecutor as attorney general and then on as a senator is -- has plenty of opportunity for

people to review and see what a liberal she actually is. steve: sure, given everything that's going on in the united states put protests and the defund the police movement as well, she recently praised the l.a. mayor for slashing the police department out there. if you are in law enforcement, or you are concerned about law enforcement, what message does that send to you? >> well, exactly, look. if you are a mother, right, if you are concerned about the safety of your children, you are concerned about the safety of your community, if you are concerned about the safety of america, this is not the ticket between joe biden, kamala harris, the united states would not be a safer place. we all know if you want to grow an economy it starts with safety. steve: yeah. i understand you told one of our producers yesterday americans will reject biden-harris because people want jobs, not mobs. >> that's correct. i mean, look, when you look at where we are in this country right now.

and what the democrats are supporting, again, they are not supporting jobs. they are not supporting job creation. it's quite the opposite. and certainly they are supporting the mobs out there booth and looting all of our major cities. steve: all right. it should then be a choice for americans coming up first tuesday in november. jeff landry, the attorney general for louisiana. sir, thank you very much for joining us. >> thank you. steve: all right. we're going to step aside. we have one more hour of "fox & friends." in the hour, sarah sanders and ben shapiro. ♪ ♪ and we'll replace your windshield with safe, no-contact service. >> tech: schedule at safelite.com. >> singers: ♪ safelite repair, safelite replace. ♪ and aren't necessarily great for your teeth. the acid can actually wear away at the enamel

kamala harris started strong in democratic primaries but finished weak, zero support. that's the kind of opponent everyone dreams of. steve: peter doocy has been following joe biden for over a year and joins us live in well mington, delaware with what we can expect from the now set ticket later today there in wilmington, peter. peter: good morning, and we know a little bit more today about what joe biden told kamala harris privately on a video chat when it came time to tell her that she wont the veepstakes by zooming in on a photo of his notes. take a look, at some point i decided that i would like you to join the effort to win back the soul of our country and be our nation's next vice president. and remember, another recent photo of biden's note shown handwritten note that he does not hold grudges. this is a cycle with harris trying to knock biden out of the

debate stage and ramps up with harris trying to help biden win the race and despite the early animosity, biden is detailing a long time emotional connection to harris. i first met kamala through my son bo, they were both attorneys general at the time and he had enormous respect for her and her work. i heard a lot about that in making decision and there's no one's decision i value more than bo and i'm proud to have kamala standing with me on the campaign. harris has been vetted as big-state senator and national presidential candidate but she has not been tested on the ballot. remember, she dropped out before the iowa caucuses and we spoke to her there right before thanksgiving and right after she made the pledge that she was going to expletive move to iowa. and from thanksgiving to caucus day, does anything change or are you just going to -- >> we are just pushing through. peter: but despite the early

dropout in late 2019, she is making the trip today from washington to wilmington to debut for the first time the biden-harris presidential ticket. back to you in new york. ainsley: all right, so peter, on saturday, though, the vice president -- the former vice president joe biden had this to say to you, watch this. peter: have you picked a running mate yet? >> yeah, i have. peter: who is it? >> you. [laughter] ainsley: peter, he changed his mind. how did you feel about that yesterday when you learned it really wasn't you? peter: you know, supposedly he was calling around to the people who did not win the veepstakes to tell them they were not going to be the running mate. i never got a call. to the first part of the video, he did tell us then for the first time that he had picked a running mate. the first very newsy and the second part we are still wait to

go see what he wants me to do. peter: peter, speaking of what you want to do, since you did perform your sister's marriage two weeks ago because of a variety of reasons, the priest did die before the event, are you performing any ceremonies there in delaware? peter: i have to check my online and i'm sure -- >> ainsley: brian wants to renew his vows and he's catholic. peter: i think we can do that right now. brian: we will see. thanks, peter, good job. it looks like you will be getting on the road perhaps soon if we can get the vice president to campaign. meanwhile let's go to sarah sanders, former white house press secretary as you're well aware. sarah i'm reading politico now,

what went into this and a little bit of the background between biden and harris and while they did get through joe biden's son, bo, looks like kamala harris was getting annoyed that everybody was saying it should be natural running mate for joe biden. she was looking at it as why not me which makes sense why she chose to attack joe biden in the first debate, doesn't it? sarah: absolutely and for one i'm very glad that he didn't pick peter to be on the ticket because i think it would have been much stronger ticket than the one he has lined up. i think that kamala harris is no surprise that she's joe biden's pick. she is a camp own of the same far-left agenda that joe biden has been touting over the last year. they both support higher taxes, total government takeover of health care, liberal judges, open orders -- borders and the

list goes on. the last thing i think we need the two taking over. biden-harris would make hillary clinton presidency further left. that's why we are seeing him pick her and seeing them come together in a ticket and i think they would be a disaster for our country. ainsley: there are some progressives that say she's not left enough and she has a background in law enforcement as prosecutor in california. she was former attorney general of california, so what does that say about the party? sarah: that -- that their opinion will change drastically. they will come around because like i said, kamala harris and joe biden have both completely caved and adopted the far-left agenda of their party. they have totally been controlled by both supporting the green new deal and a number of other policies that would be

absolutely crushing to our economy and it's not just about the economy, our entire freedom and way of life and country is at stake. it's never been more important for people to come out and to vote and to really look at the difference of the two candidates' policies and i can't imagine that anybody in this country when they really look at it wants to live under a biden-harris presidency. i think that what they would do not just again to the economy but our entire way of life would be devastating to our country and another reason that people need to get out and make sure donald trump gets reelected. steve: you know, sarah, ever since she was named people started learning about her past. i think given the fact that the number one issue in the united states right now is the coronavirus, i think a lot of people would like to hear how joe biden and kamala harris would have a different response than what the trump administration and the federal government has already done

which is all hands on deck. i want to know how they would do it differently than what we are seeing right now. sarah: well, i think for starters they would do a much greater government takeover. they would be pushing far more federal reaching destruction i think on individual communities. one of the things that president trump has done extremely well is allowed states and local communities to make decisions that are best for those communities while providing resources to help across the board. they have unlearned i think a lot of the greatness of america in allowing us to put fast track production of ventilators and other ppe gear that was desperately needed on the front end. i think it showed why donald trump has been right all along and we have to bring manufacturing back to the country and we have to remain tough on china. i don't think that the china travel ban is something that we could have ever imagined under a biden-harris presidency.

in fact, they condemned the president for it. i think the virus would have been far worse than it is right now if the president hadn't taken decisive action at the beginning and putting those travel restrictions in place that those two criticized him for doing. i think we would have been in a much more difficult position on the front end if we hadn't had those actions and certainly i think the president has done a good job and needs to continue to do all that we can to fight against the coronavirus, but at the same time while we focus on saving lives we have to continue looking at how we save livelihoods. i think the economy would be under complete collapse under a biden-harris presidency. at no time is it going to be more important to have somebody that knows how to build the economy than it is after we come through this pandemic. president trump has shown he can do that. biden and harris' policies have shown they would further take us down. brian: joe biden, i get the

emotion from the republicans like barack obama who has made it clear he's going to be active. kamala harris, clearly and her policies will clearly get republicans motivated and donald trump does by trade, but also what stands out and also seems like a lifetime ago with justice kavanaugh confirmation hearing, harris was aggressive and disbelieving of him. in fact, there are some moments to relive for that so let's take a listen. >> have you had any discussion with anyone ever about bob mueller? >> have i ever have a discussion about bob mueller, i used to work with bob mueller? you asked me that, i need to know who works there. >> i think you can answer the question without me giving you a list of all employees of that law firm. >> while, actually i can't. >> why not? >> because i don't know who

works there. brian: so it was -- she was relentless going after him. that's the type of thing that motivates the right? sarah: look, kamala harris was mean and she was cruel to a good and decent person. for a lot of us the kavanaugh hearing might seem like a lifetime ago. it bet it feels like yesterday. i think she owes him in an apology for the way she treated him. she was the leader of the liberal mob that came out after decent person and tried to destroy him after malicious lies and she should do the right thing and apologize to brett kavanaugh and to his family. ainsley: sarah, thank you very much for joining us. sarah: thanks for having me. ainsley: jillian has headlines for us. jillian: good morning, we are following number of stories, we start with fox news alert. reportedly died in train derailment in scotland,

the police department there in wisconsin. officer, first off, when did protestors start zeroing in on you? >> i honestly don't know. the protests at that location had been going on for the last few weeks, though. brian: why do you think you were targeted because of the incidents? >> absolutely. i had three officer-involving shootings and i had not violated any laws. brian: who. >> the people that showed up to your house or your girlfriend's house? >> i don't know. over the past few weeks they've been coming over to the house and the first time that i've been at the location while protests are going on, but for the fast few weeks that there

have been protests there have been protests and they knew that. brian: there were shots there. you don't know if you were shot at, correct? >> i 100% believe i was shot at. brian: you try to engage with them? >> absolutely. i went down the property, i had a u-haul parked behind the house because we are in the process of moving. jump in on the u-haul, breaking windows. we went outside to pretty much get them to stop it and when we did that that's when i was assaulted and my girlfriend was assaulted. i went back to the house while we were trying to get into the house they assaulted after they followed us with weapons and that's when the shots happened. brian: here is what democratic wisconsin state governor disputes account, victim narrative put forth by mensa and

police department is totally inaccurate. in my time at the protests in front of mensa's home i personally felt threatened by his actions throwing pepper spray into the crowed. no one tried to kill him or his girlfriend. your reaction? >> my reaction is pretty much this, there is version that i have and version that he has. whether you want to believe my perspective and not his perspective, doesn't change the fact that there's evidence and support my version and does not support his. brian: unbelievable. when you look at this big picture, the fact that we are talking about this, the people rise against you who you sacrificed not to get rich but to serve in law enforcement, does it make you question why you got into the business to begin with? >> not at all. i knew exactly what i signed up for. we signed up to protect people,

serve people. unfortunately my city is has not allowed me to do that. the reason why i'm suspended in the first place and if you go to web page it explains the entire story in great detail and the reason i'm suspended because of shooting that happened in 2016. that was investigated by my own police department. no policies and procedures were violated and milwaukee and no laws violated. again, justified. no laws violated and then attorney's office, no civil rights violation occurred. back to now, after all of these years now they investigated me after the investigation. they changed the rules to reinvestigate that again and once they suspended me they did not give a single reason why i was suspended even though everything was justified. i violated no policies. i was still suspended. brian: mayor says this, the city

supports right to protest and last night was not peaceful protest and it was criminal behavior. if the perpetrators will be per -- that's why we didn't talk about the specific groups and i didn't want to screw up your case. >> exactly. brian: officer joe mensah. appreciate it. hang in there. >> appreciate it. brian: defend the heros, visit the website defendtheheros.org for more information. meanwhile still ahead what impact does joe biden picking harris have on the economy? economists wolf says it'll be

$15 an hour, proposal to forgive $10,000 of federal student loans and that is just part of what she would like to do if, you know, given the chance. stephen: yeah, well, so much for joe biden running moderate ticket. i mean, this is now a pretty far-left ticket. one of the problems with selecting a senator, steve, as your running mate she has a voting record and we are learning more about her. we just got the news last night but everything i've seen in her voting record suggests that she's a very, very far-left politician and i don't think robert -- that that's what joe biden needed. i think he needed somebody who was more of the center. she's for medicare for all, she is for green-new deal. as you just mentioned, steve, she voted against donald trump's tax cut which is what revived the economy in 2017, '18 and '19. i think that's a real problem. by the way, neither of the

people have much private-sector experience and you have trump who a lifetime businessman and now you have two life-time politicians running against him. will be -- >> robert: i need to respond. health and equality, race inequality, we are in a deep recession with unemployment literally at its near time high, 5 million people have left the workforce and we are talking about trump's economy has been the best. it's not the best today, steve. you want to go back a year ago, let's make sure we understand trickled-down economy does not work. it has grown our deficit and i will tell you it's time for a change. we will now have a debate. we have tickets on both sides and we will have the policy debate and i would tell you one more thing. we vote on the top of the ticket, this is biden versus trump and i think kamala brings

incredible complement to the ticket but it's going to be about the who is going to be our next president, not the vice president. steve: stephen, how many people vote on the president based on who their vice president is? stephen: i agree with you. people vote on who is on top of the ticket, that's exactly right and that's where trump has an upper hand. everyone knows we have a pandemic and the real question i think, steve, voters are going to be asking themselves, by the way this is basically now a toss-up race given what happened this weekend with trump rolling pelosi on the phase 4 deal, but people are going to ask this question, who do you feel more comfortable with to get the economy back up and running, joe biden or donald trump and i think, you know, trump is -- is going to be the one people realize, a guy who has been a life-time businessman who -- who revived the economy once and he

said many times i can do it again. steve: all right, we will have to end it right there, robert wolf, stephen moore, great conversation for this wednesday morning. meanwhile kamala harris has been grilled about her record on the debate stage. >> she put over 1500 people in jail for marijuana violations and laughed about it. steve: so how will she hold up now that she's on the democratic ticket? ben shapiro on that coming up next.

>> senator harris says she's proud of her record as prosecutor and she'll be a prosecutor vice president. she laughed about it when asked if she ever smoked marijuana. >> i'm proud of making a decision so not just give fancy speeches or be in legislative

body and give speeches on the floor but actually doing the work. >> and the people that suffered under your reign as prosecutor you owe them an apology. steve: ouch. ainsley:ia taste of what's yet to come. ben shapiro joins us right now. hey, ben. ben: how are you? ainsley: i'm doing well. what will her opponent, what will her critics say? ben: well, president trump should be overjoyed that joe biden made strategic blunder of picking harris and the entire campaign was putting spotlight on president trump and now spotlight on biden campaign. president trump should make it very clear that at this point he's running against harris and not running against joe biden, joe biden is stand-in and harris is extreme and manipulative and she dropped out before

single-digit support in home state of california. steve: poll came last week, 60% of those who responded said they don't think that joe biden is going to fill out his term which would effectively make her the president. when you go to vote on tuesday in november it would be donald trump versus kamala harris by extension. meanwhile, when the news broke yesterday at 4:14 in the afternoon via e-mail rather than press conference or anything like that, breaking news senator kamala harris of california is joe biden's pick for vice president. a pragmatic moderate, she's the first black woman on a major party ticket. is she a pragmatic moderate? is that true? ben: no. trojan of horse harris is not pragmatic. she's the most leftist senators in the entire united states senate. she votes with bernie sanders 92% of the time. she has decided that she would like to ban fracking.

we will see how that goes for her for joe biden in pennsylvania. she wants to ban plastic straws and she laughed about that in open debate. she is obviously an extraordinarily extreme candidate and she also happens to be really, really bad at this. i mean, people are forgetting. she's not good at this. she has one decent debate who she called the guy who she is now serving as vice president and called him a racist and believed that sexual harassment accusers and guy she thinks he's racist. brian: we thought voodoo economics but nothing like this. tulsi gabart looked at her record and took her apart and she never recovered. i'm amazed that she didn't think her position. she could not defend her own

record along with new beliefs and she found herself walking back almost every major issue which getting rid of private insurance. ben: she had to walk back original attack on biden. joe biden would have prevented a girl like her busing to school. she picked whatever positions she think is going help her at the time. obviously her tendency are extraordinarily radical and to the left and if she were given the power that's what she would do. she's suggested openly despite biden trying to shied her, by executive order ban assault weapons, which is an amazing thing. ainsley: remember when bernie sanders we got this, we've talked, so if you're a progressive just vote for him. well, the congressional progressive caucus cochair was bragging about how movable joe

biden is. listen to this. >> as soon as we get him in the white house and before with the task forces that we had we were able to significantly push joe biden to do things that he hadn't signed onto before, so he is moverrable and he is listening and he does understand that we need turnout from young people, from folks of color. ainsley: so how far left is this party willing to go once he is in office? ben: as far left as humanly possible. joe biden is a career politician who has taken variety of positions on variety of issues and they got him on a gurney and wheeling him out there. everybody understands he's just a vehicle for whatever the democratic party is going to become in post biden era. biden says he's a transitional figure. harris understands this and the president of the united states should be openly campaigning that joe biden will probably not be around to finish second term and probably not even first

term. it's trump versus harris and it should be trump versus harris. steve: i heard so many pundits talk in the last 12 hours or so how she was the safest pick when you look at it because she was the attorney general in california and she ran for state office and she was vetted during the presidential campaign, but really when you -- when you look at her record as you have explained, she's not that safe a pick at all. ben: i'm bewildered by the conventional wisdom that she's a safe pick. zero black support in the primaries, she doesn't bring enthusiasm to the ticket. she doesn't bring any level of charm to the ticket. she's actually kind of awful in debate once you get past the first punch. i don't know what she brings to the table. frankly i thought that he was going to pick susan rice. i think it's a massive strategic error. he wanted to check a couple of boxes and the twitter blue checks will be happy with biden 2.7 seconds and go back.

brian: convention, momentum, joe biden is not even going, so we will see and even today's announcement, there won't be any pause i don't think, i think they are to an empty room wearing masks, saying hi from 6 feet apart and -- >> ben: very excite forking media for the next couple of days and we will get back into how much they hate trump. the good news is trump has a target to swing at. brian: absolutely. always great to talk to you, thanks ben shapiro. coming up straight ahead schools nationwide are debating whether to hold classes in person or online this fall. dr. marc siegel has graduated high school, college and even went and got medical degree. he will talk about the cost to our children and it's big time. that story coming up next >> tech: at safelite, we're committed to taking care of you

sandra: joe biden and harris will be holding first public event together happening today. bide an announcing pick for running mate yesterday. brand-new reaction still pouring in. liz cheney will be joining us coming up and what we are learning about harry's positions on the issues. plus chicago on the brink, some of the city's biggest attractions may soon have to close their doors after continued unrest there. and an update on the reopening

of schools nationwide, kellyanne conway will be joining us with some new information live from the white house, join us live from america's newsroom as we begin a brand-new hour top of the hour. jillian: in the meantime quick headlines for you right now. portland's district attorney plans to drop charges against hundreds of riotsers claiming voices should be heard. dhs secretary chad wolf says city has been encouraging protests. >> what we know about portland is that they foster an environment that allows this type of violence to go on. there's over 75 nights of us taken violence night after night after night and i think that's very concerning. jillian: in the meantime seattle police chief carmen best will resign after the city vote today defund the department. best said it wasn't about the money but lack of respect for her officers. new overnight, new jersey gym owners who repeatedly defied covid-19 shutdown orders lose

know? doctor: i think they need to know and this is very important. studies of children under age of 10 are much less likely to be spreading covid-19 to adults. that was huge study in south korea and true in greece and switzerland and australia. that's where we are starting from. i think a lot of what happens in schools are adults taking precautions and are teachers congregating close to each other and are they obeying social distancing and i think young children, ainsley, especially given the tremendous public health cost of keeping schools closed, i think we should start with considering opening the elementary schools first because the chances of spread from kids to adults is low and the tremendous cost in terms of public health is very, very high. kids cannot learn and you know this from your daughter, they cannot learn at a very young age online only. steve: when you look at the numbers, close to 400,000 kids in the united states have tested positive for covid-19 and when you look at the mortality rate

in children, children were zero percent to .4% of all covid deaths and 19 deaths reported zero child deaths and in states reporting zero to half -- .5% of all child covid-19 cases resulted in death. there have also been 90 cumulative child deaths from may 21st to august 1st. those are the numbers, but the reality is when you look at the parents who are trying to decide, do i send my kid to school, do i keep him here, what's the checklist they go through? doctor: well, steve, you made a very important point here. what they didn't emphasize is they either had no symptoms at all or very mildly symptomatic. i've been testing antibodies on kids since the beginning and i

see kids that have positive antibodies that never got sick at all and less than 600 hospitalizations, that's right, less than 600 hospitalizations throughout the entire pandemic of children under the age of 18. i think that parents have to focus, though, on teaching kids physical distancing, mask wearing and washing hands, that's key and, of course, teachers have to instill that as well. i think the schools should be open. brien: quick 20-second answer, tell your kids ahead of time, your kid is going to test positive but they're going to be fine? doctor: exactly, brian. they are going to be fine and we can also keep kids that are sick separate. what we have to focus on teacher behavior. the mental health cost, the nutrition cost, the cost in terms of not getting vaccinations, the cost in terms of other medical problems not being taken care of and socialization and learning, huge, huge cost if we don't open the schools, big mistake. brian: we have to live with this and we can't hide from this

forever and that's the message we have to send out. dr. seigel, thank you so much. doctor: be leaders to our children, brian. brian: i always listen to dan, back in a moment ever since i got this little guy, i felt like i was just constantly cleaning up his hair. then, i got my paws on the swiffer sweeper. it's a game changer. these heavy duty dry cloths pick up a crazy amount of hair! this is all you. we stopped cleaning and started swiffering.
