loss of jobs. the loss of opportunities, the loss of normalcy, and yes, the loss of certainty. and while this virus touches us all, we've got to be honest, it is not an equal opportunity offender. black, latino, and indigenous people are suffering and dying disproportionately. this is not a coincidence, it i the effect of structural racism. of inequities in education and technology, healthcare and housing, job security and transportation. the injustice in reproductive and maternal health care, and the excessive use of force by police, and in our broader criminal justice system. this virus it has no eyes, and

yet, it knows exactly how we se each other and how we treat eac other. and let's be clear, there is no vaccine for racism. we have got to do the work. for george floyd, for breonna taylor, for the lives of too many others to name, for our children, and for all of us, we have got to do the work to fulfill that promise of equal justice under law. because here is the thing, none of us are free, until all of us are free. so we're at an inflection point the constant chaos leaves us adrift, the incompetence makes

us feel afraid, the callousness makes us feel alone, that is a lot, and here's the thing, we can do better, and deserve so much more. we must elect a president who will bring something different, something better, and do the important work, a president who will bring all of us together, black, white, latino, asian, indigenous, to achieve the future we collectively want. we must elect joe biden. i will tell you, i knew joe as vice president, i knew joe on the campaign trail, and i first got to know joe as the father o

my friend, so joe's son bo, and i served as attorneys general o our estates, delaware and california. during the great recession, he and i spoke on the phone nearly every day, working together to win back billions of dollars fo homeowners from the big banks that foreclosed on people's homes. we would talk about his family. how as a single father, joe would spend four hours every da riding the train back and forth from wilmington to washington. bo and hunter got to have breakfast every day with her dad , they went to sleep every night with the sound of his voice reading bedtime stories. and while they endured an unspeakable loss, those two little boys always knew that they were deeply unconditionall

loved. this is the leader who wrote th violence against women act, and enacted the assault weapons ban. you as vice president implemented the recovery act, which brought our country back from the great recession. he championed the affordable care act, protecting millions o americans with pre-existing conditions. his point decades promoting american values around the world . joe, he believes we stand with our allies and stand up to our adversaries. right now, we have a president who turns our tragedy into political weapons.

joe will be a president who turns our challenges into purpose. joe will bring us together to build an economy that doesn't leave anyone behind. where a good paying job is the floor, not the ceiling. joe will bring us together to end this pandemic, and make sur that we are prepared for the next one. joe will bring us together to squarely face and dismantle racial injustice furthering the work of generations. joe and i believe that we can build that beloved community, one that is strong, and decent. just, and kind. one in which we can all see ourselves. that is the vision that our

parents and grandparents fought for. the vision that made my own lif possible. the vision that makes the american promise for all its complexities and imperfections of promise worth fighting for. ahead is not easy, we may stumble, we may fall short, but i pledge to you that we will ac boldly, and deal with our challenges honestly. we will speak truth, and we wil act with the same faith in you that we ask you to place in us. we believe that our country, al of us, will stand together for better future. and we already are, we see it i the doctors come at the nurses,

the home healthcare workers, an frontline workers who are risking their lives to save people they've never met. we see it in the teachers and truck drivers, the factory workers and farmers, the postal workers and other workers to live your own life on the line and we see it in so many of you who our working, not just to ge us through our current crisis, but to somewhere better. there is something happening across our country. it's about you and it's about us , people of all ages, colors, and creeds, who our yes, taking to the streets, and also,

persuading our family members, rallying our friends, organizin our neighbors, and getting out the vote. we have shown that when we vote we expand access to healthcare, and expand access to the ballot box, and ensure that more working families can make a decent living. and i am so inspired by a new generation, it you, you are pushing us to realize the ideal of our nation. pushing us to live the values w share. decency, and fairness, justice, and love. you are patriots. who remind us that to love our country is to fight for the ideals of our country.

in this election, we have a chance to change the course of history. we are all in this fight. you, me, and joe, together, wha an awesome responsibility. what an awesome privilege. so, let's fight with conviction. let's fight with hope. let's fight with confidence in ourselves, and a commitment to each other. to the america we know is possible. the america we love. years from now, this moment wil have passed, and our children, and our grandchildren, will loo in our eyes, and they are going to ask us where were you when

the stakes were so high. they will ask us what was he like? and we will tell them. we will tell them not just how we felt, we will tell them what we did. thank you. god bless you, and god bless th united states of america.

♪ >> that is an unusual scene as solid speech by kamala harris a

she accepted the nomination of her party a historic moment. we talk about that quite a bit. she is the first woman of color to accept that nomination. she talks about her mother, about her family, about what meter which he is. it is just remarkable though to watch the scene in the room where you would normally see delegates across the floor, and it is a surreal experience. i feel for her because it's a difficult position for her to b and to stand out there and get that kind of and draw the kind of strength from a crowd that i out there. she has her husband on stage an they can enjoy this moment together. joe biden is out there too, but the waving to the crowd. the people at home watching, very different scene from anything we've ever seen. >> surreal is really the word. its historic, the first woman o color on a major ticket in the

u.s., but surreal to see that empty room and also surreal to see joe biden who will accept his party's nomination tomorrow socially distanced and kind of bowing to her, whether they hav been tested or they could hug may be just for tonight, i don' know. the speech itself, hitting some points, very aggressive about donald trump saying at one point , i know a predator when i see one. and pausing there. she referenced slightly her tim as a prosecutor, the attorney general of camphor and cask, california in the san francisco area. i stood up for the people. she seemed to indicate that the think there might be of vaccine on the horizon, but she went on to see there is no vaccine for racism which was kind of an interesting. we want to take it around our panel. you have talked about this nigh for a long time.

your thoughts on the speech, this moment, kind of the surrea nature of this moment in covid 19. >> it is surreal because of covid 19. covid 19 had not occurred, i would have been there and i'm sure i would've been on the podium giving her a high five and saying love you, love you, love you. there were a lot of people in that room tonight. we didn't see them. but they were there. their spirits. the love that they have for justice and equality, the love they have for their country. the women who picked cotton com at the women who broke their backs just trying to get ahead she spoke to all of them and many more. she gave them a part of this moment.

tonight, there are so many people who are crying. so many people who are screaming , so many people saying now, finally, someone who looks like me can aspire to the highest office in the land, and yes, someone who dared to go to a black college can now say tha i am going to the white house one day. mvp #adam vice president. i was in the room. let the church say, i was in th room. >> that was absolutely lovely. and a beautiful tribute to the meaning of this night. we all think about the suffrage movement and the 100 years sinc it got the vote. and how ought all of this feels but good for you for bringing i home in terms of the meeting that is there tonight.

one, you're watching this alongside here in the studio, your thoughts. >> so come at the line that wil be remembered i think as the on that brett mentioned which is n vaccine for racism. we have to do the work. she was very clear in speaking out the names of george floyd and breonna taylor and talking about the energy that we've see with that black lives movement and it's really change the streets and change the politica environment in the country today . a lot of the people who are the activists on the streets were not necessarily wed to kamala harris candidacy when she was running for president. they saw her as the prosecutor from california, they didn't se her as a kindred spirit. she spoke about family first, about her mother, her dad, her

aunts, cousins, nieces, and godchildren, the way she spoke about her sorority and historical black colleges, suggested that she now understands and is part of the movement of today. she is buying into the energy, the energy of the democratic party as it comes to the table for this election. when you heard president obama speaks, again, president obama, why didn't he speak more about joe biden. he again was speaking about the idea that people are counting o your cynicism, you're saying what is the point, why go out and vote? both kamala harris and presiden obama spoke to the idea of activism getting people out, getting people involved in caring about the electoral process which reinforces the point of the night, vote. to keep the washington post is reporting tonight that barack

obama was supposed to be scheduled as the last speaker o the night in this night three, but he asked to be next-to-last sue symbolically pass the torch to kamala harris. i want you to reflect on both the former president's speech and senator harris. >> what struck me about this is that donna and juan have taken proper note of this historic moment. as only they can at this time, but we heard the theme again is you got to get out and vote, yo got to fight and carry on the fight. they seem very worried that people aren't going to turn out and vote. it has been so much zero part o the message they've been conveying that it makes you sto and wonder what are they worrie about. we will see perhaps. >> let's bring in karl rove.

carl, your thoughts on presiden obama's speech tonight and kamala harris speech tonight. it barely needs pointing out to look out there in see all the space, and she definitely gave it her all and it was a tough environment. >> it was. let me take president obama it' a reminder that in the convention speeches, sometimes if you're angry and just like your political opponent a lot, sometimes you become tone deaf, no interest he said in finding common ground, he described donald trump as un-american, i remember when president obama dismissed these suggestions to the house republicans in february of 2009 about a stimulus bill by cutting them off saying i one. i also remember when he invited the chairman of the house budge committee paul ryan to a speech at george washington university and proceeded to decry the republican budget proposals as un-american.

tonight he used that language t can condemn president trump, bu there is a little bit of a background there, a little bit of a back story. and then tonight he said, all tripp wants to do is enrich themselves and their supporters he's it advocating candidate wh has as a name hunter and a brother named james who had bot gotten into a little trouble trading on the name of joe biden , so at historic moment tonight. i thought it was a pedestrian speech, maybe it was that she had to give it in that empty room, but i thought the video was great her opening remarks about family were great, but i think it was pretty pedestrian after that. >> we heard former president obama talk about black lives matter, some of that was very visible throughout the presentation tonight about diversity and black lives matter . other parts of it were kind of hidden behind elizabeth warren we notice the black letters in the school classroom blm on the wall they are as you see in the

back of her right over her shoulder. blm, black lives matter signaling well, whatever. chris? >> you know, i thought it was a magic moment in kamala harris speech and that's when she said i accept your nomination for vice president of the united states of america and juan and donna have talked about the historic nature of her role now on this ticket, and that is worth celebrating. having said that i have to agre with carl, tonight reminded me of nothing so much as kamala harris whole campaign for president, started out with thi huge rally, 20,000 people cheering and she flamed out and was out of the race by 2019 before the first vote in iowa, thought there was a lot of

democratic boilerplate in the attack on donald trump and thei praise of joe biden. i was thinking in the middle of the speech i don't remember a word that tim kaine or mike pence said when they were nominated for vice president in 2016, and my guess is other tha that phrase except your nomination i'm not sure there's a phrase of kamala harris that will be remembered much after tonight. >> i think part of that is because there was no applause, we spent a little bit of today looking at past vice president being nominated and getting tha applause and had that moment, she didn't have that. i thought the speech started of a little slow i thought maybe she needed one of the awake chocolates with the caffeine. she seems reticent to talk abou herself, but she seemed comfortable and animated and excited when she was talking about joe biden and i think if you are the biden team, you are happy with that because she wil be somebody that in this strang environment of campaigning with no people, will probably be a good partner for him. >> that wraps us up for tonight we have taken over a lot of tim from laura ingraham, so we're going to wrap up and we will be

back tomorrow. laura ingraham and "the ingraha angle" is up next. >> we will see you tomorrow night. good night. >> laura: i'm laura ingraham and this is the ingraham angle from washington tonight per day three of the dnc i was watching these proceedings and i wondere if this was one of the most dreary visions of america ever presented at a nominating convention. i didn't recognize this america. to deliver the depressing message they brought out the bi guns, so that would be kind of fun the big guns, the big stars. in addition to their candidate for vice president, we heard from hillary clinton, nancy pelosi and the man pulling the levers behind the closed doors, that is former president barack obama. he is the man who apparently solved none of these terrible issues and problems during his eight years in office.

tonight we are going to bring you can't miss reaction from lira trump,, house minority leader molly hemingway, victor david hanson and a lot more, bu first once again, this was all sizzle no steak at the d&c, so they trotted out the parties last global superstar, barack obama, but that just ended up reinforcing what the entire country already knows. joe biden is no barack obama. now obama's almost 60, but he still has a swagger and you can see it one of the most talented politicians in the last 50 years . >> i understand why a lot of americans are down on government . i understand why a white factor merker who seen his wages cut o his job shipped overseas might feel like the government no longer looks out for him. and why a black mom might feel like it never looked out for he at all. >> of course they tried this almost the same lines in 2016

with hillary clinton and they failed miserably. but democrats think joe isn't a better place than hillary was because joe has two running mates kamala and covid. but to proms with atco must be one is too radical for most swing voters, you hear her talk about structural racism tonight and covid is beginning to fate and the red states where people are going back to work, going back to school and playing football. back to obama, their star tonight. if you think you're getting in obama third term with biden, it's important to take a realit check. and look at what he accomplishe read his trade policy encourage more outsourcing of american jobs two foreign kurds countries . even hillary clinton walked awa from it when she campaigned, an biden, disingenuously of course claims he would change it. obama's healthcare plan was so unpopular it led to his party

losing its house majority in 2010. obama's doj ran roughshod over religious liberty and was smacked down by the supreme court for doing it to the littl sisters of the board. obama's immigration and border policy made it easier for illegal aliens to come here and get benefits from schooling to food stamps, this kept wages down for working-class american as well. obama's foreign-policy blunders led to the rise of isis and a china unchecked and unchallenged . and then came 2016. >> the reason i'm here is because of president obama and joe biden, because if they did good job, i wouldn't be here. i enjoyed my previous life very much, but they did such a bad job i stand before you as president. >> he is 100 percent right. we already had eight years of obama and the end was in americ first trump presidency, so with the pixie dust he was prickling

tonight was more like sand in your eye. >> i'm in philadelphia were our constitution was drafted and signed. it wasn't a perfect document, but embedded in this document was a northstar that would guid future generations. a system of representative government, a democracy, to which we could better realize our highest ideals. >> ignore that historic setting it was beautifully lit and everything, the references to the founders are cute, but we know what's going on. remember what his moralist rabi followers were doing to our history, our historical markers for the past few months or so. >> mount rushmore is national symbol of white supremacy. >> questions have been raised about thomas jefferson in particular, but also about george, washington,. >> i don't care that much about

statues. >> people are making a statement . about equality, i think it's a healthy expression. >> it's a healthy expression. went on they tarried to take down that museum too? we saw tonight the choice is clear, the panelists will get into all of this but if the democrats win, the donors are getting to get there cheaper foreign labor again and the chance to ship more jobs overseas again. if the democrats win, the socia justice warriors are going to get to program the schools, pac the courts, and re- weapon eyes they justice department. a third far more radical obama third term, but without obama and all his star power and celebrity, only the destruction his policies left behind. joining me now, molly hemingway the wall street journal editorial board, board, both ou fox news contributors. molly, it has been a long was

disappointed with us, it kind o turned him into another msnbc panelist gone with hope and change, and it was a very depressing vision of the americ that is still the envy of the world today. >> i thought it was interesting what he didn't say. throughout the last few months, you have not heard a lot of democratic leaders condemning the violent riots and protest i cities across the country, sometimes even supporting them. this setting that president obama chose i thought was a great opportunity. i thought maybe he would be the only person that could explain why it is wrong to be doing violent riots to believe that the country is irredeemably evi and must be overthrown great i was hoping he would good there and he didn't go there. he gave a speech i think is pretty typical of the type of speech he gave where he sort of rewrites his own history to be better than it was, he lied

about saying that president trump is condemning the press o something, neglecting to mentio that his administration was ver brutal toward the press and he spied on journalists and use th department of justice to go after them. you see him wax poetic about journalism, not admitting that he spied on the trump campaign. his ministration spied on the trump campaign and did so much to undermine the trent peaceful transfer of government. >> speaking breaky speaking of the protesters, obama tried to wrap this up in a beautiful historical narrative that only can comment on. watch. >> to the young people who lead us this summer, telling us we need to be better, in so many ways, eur this countries dreams fulfilled. you can give our democracy new meaning. you can take it to a better place.

>> victor, you can burn churche down and deface historical markers, and set buildings on fire, and level them in three nights of work, unbelievable. it's just like ripping down statues that are not your property. >> yeah, i mean the inner citie in minneapolis, seattle, portland, our wasteland, so we saw young people, we saw them trying to burn alive policeman in portland we saw him destroying the whole shopping million-dollar mile corridor. they are mentally or ideologically or criticizing bl and the violence, 700 policeman injured, many people killed, because they find it i guess useful to create this sense of anarchy. also incapable of offering a positive agenda. if you in pennsylvania you won'

hear what's in it for your future. here in california the 109 toda and we've had these rolling blackouts with the voluntarily retiring 4,000 megawatts to hav are new green deal, it is here in california. is that what the rest of the country wants? are they going to stop the wall continue the wall? there is nothing positive as an alternative agenda, and then they talk about the constitution , but my gosh, laura , they are trying to destroy the electoral college, they have 550 sanctuary cities that nullify federal law in addition they have beto who is talking about buying back guns that he never owned, the government never owned them so endangering the second amendmen so they very anti- constitutional.

when they said covid, covid, covid, what more do they want. over $4 trillion this year, do they want to borrow six, eight? are we doing better or worse than uk, belgium, spain, italy, and to the degree that we're no doing better like germany. >> got to get kimberly in here. >> the population has about 1 percent of the desperate. >> so they continued fear mongering with covid tonight ignoring the fact that the numbers and arizona, texas, florida, are going down, we are hearing the red states are opening, but kimberly, when she talked, kamala harris talked about education and the need to have kids in schools, what? the red state governors want to open their schools, the blue state governors are keeping the school shut no matter what this covid record is. >> there were too notable covid moments tonight, one was when barack obama mentioned h1n1 they've only wanted to make the comparison to ebola. i was surprised you mentioned i because their record on that wa

absolutely disastrous, especially in terms of making and rolling out a vaccine, so there is some real ground to cover in that for some enterprising journalist. but yes, kamala harris talking about the need to educate all these other candidate sitting i empty classrooms as if this is somehow donald trump's fault it is a blue state governors that aren't acknowledging the need t get them back to school. the sick outs, it is this dates out there that are trying to actually make this work and recognizing there needs to balance the economy and education along with dealing with the virus that our ones that are moving the country forward. that is the white house as pushing two. >> finally, molly, when we have elizabeth warren in classroom and in the background it says blm spelled out, it's like what can you find in the room game,

and a lot of people online were saying this is foreshadowing, and i know all of you have written a version of this this is foreshadowing for 1619 project coming into public schools with that little elizabeth warren three letters spell out in the background, that was part purposely done, obviously. get that and also i find it interesting that democrats are talking about schools in any sense. teacher unions are very much a part of the democratic coalition , but they are at odds with the children and their families when it comes to reopening schools or whether children should be banned from schools. they are also the means by whic a lot of this progressive ideology gets filtered into the classroom and it's something that teaches that the country i irredeemably evil as opposed to i liked what president obama said at the beginning of his speech i wish he had carried it through to talking about why this desire to overthrow our system is so wrong. >> great to see you tonight.

so good to stick around. speaking of barack obama he played up his suppose it romanc with eitan tonight, but talking about what a great vp he was let's not forget his refusal to endorse biden in the first place . that isn't nearly as humiliatin as all the nasty and insulting comments he has made about joe. in his first press conference i 2009, the young president quipped i don't remember exactl what joe was referring to, not surprisingly. in his 2014 book, new york time while obama had come to like biden, he often talked about hi with a patronizing over fondnes as if the vp were the beloved family dog that kept on the carpet and just last week politico reported one democrat who spoke to obama recalled the former president warning president warning don't underestimate joe's ability to mess things up. how hollow of an endorsement wa this?

is this? here with reaction from the trump campaign senior at lori's or laura trump. we know he's not capable of being front man for his own campaign, how concerned as the trump camp that obama will draw president trump into a fight an make it obama versus trump vers instead of trump versus biden. >> he hasn't been very forthcoming to do very much for joe biden so that remains to be seen. he didn't want him to run in 2016. as you just pointed out, he tol joe biden i'm not going to basically endorse you until you're the last guy standing. and so, look, we are not too concerned about that. we all have to remember that at the top of the ticket at the en of the day, it is still joe biden, and you wonder why we've had to basically add to our infomercial where you never see the product that they are selling. by the way, it's the product nobody wants to buy in joe biden

, they are rolling out the big guns, but you don't hear much about joe in many things that people are saying. what is he doing to do for the country? how is he going to help americans? the reality is they know they can't. they know the only way forward is donald trump and he's the on that will get is back up and running into all the things he' already done, that nobody wants to buy what the democrats our selling so we're not too worrie about former president obama. >> i think what is obvious to m at least as that their covid policy come, but they kept saying joe is going to get it under control, joe was going to beat the pandemic, what they're saying as joe is going to lock you down because if they think governor witmer and beasley state governors have the answers , all the activists are pushing everything to close, schools to close, no football, no fun, no meetings, no church, that is their only play and wea goggles and a mask for everybod and do zoom because zoom calls.

>> that is the plan, that they don't want to say that because suburban don't want to have their kids locked in with them doing zoom calls, they just don't want that. ticket you can keep the liquor stores open, churches have to remain closed, it is so laughable that joe biden has ever introduced somebody who would have done a good job in any respect with the coronaviru because we all remember while the democrats were playing politics the same day nancy pelosi was handing out her impeachment bends, donald trump stopped travel coming from chin to prevent the spread from happening too quickly. what did go biden do it? he called it fear mongering, th idea that he had any sort of solution for this nancy was telling people come on down to chinatown, these people are crazy if they think that they would have done anything better than this president. the president did an amazing job , the task force led by mike pentz did an amazing job. not a single person in this country went without a ventilator that needed them.

there still banking on coronavirus, it will be amazing how it disappears on november 4 th for these people. >> speaking of hollow endorsement, pelosi took this interstate to complete her transformation into just a radical anti- trump solid. before it she did, they introduced her with this funny and. >> i am the mother of five, grandmother of nine, the power of the speaker is awesome awesome. but you also have to be prepare to throw a punch for the children. from running the house, to speaker of the house, and takin on the white house unapologetic unafraid.

>> go nancy. joining me now is house minorit leader kevin mccarthy who can't beat her in a battle of wits this is ridiculous. that video is over-the-top. but look at, the democrats put on a good show and they used personality, because they didn' want to talk policy going back to the national lockdown that they're going to impose. there is no doubt about it that's their only strategy. what are you thinking tonight after watching this? >> namely one thing, one proble that the democrats have solved since they took the majority? the power of the speaker. she spent her entire majority drumming up in impeachment that failed as well and she doesn't even mention that. they have no message so all the do is mislead. when you watch tonight, they be people to vote, but they don't inspire somebody to vote within agenda about tomorrow being better than today.

kamala harris said we would solve covid, if joe biden was president today we would be debating whether the planes fro china should come to america because we know hunter biden would probably be getting quite a bit of money from that. >> congressman, a lot of republicans our messaging me in the last 24 hours watching this virtual thing. people don't really want to watch virtual conventions. in general, it is just empty feeling. how where the republicans going to put on a compelling message that keeps people's attention and knocks back some of these myths about how trump handled covid and the economy, all the rest. how are you going to do it? how is the campaign going to do it? >> we're going to do it in many ways, or going to show average americans talking about it because we have an agenda we ca run on, we can talk about renewing the american dream, opening schools back up, we can talk about restoring our way of

life, meaning we will defeat covid. it is because we will have the therapeutics coming out even next month, we will have vaccines like we've never seen before with the operation warp speed that people will talk about. this is the manhattan project o what vaccines will be like and then we will talk about rebuilding the economy bigger than ever before. when kamala harris talks about raising the economy for everybody, no matter what color of skin or others. there is a job for you. 9.8 million jobs just in the last three months. they have an interesting way to sell their candidates prayed they have all these so-called republicans or strategist who ran failed campaigns for republicans.

to put him on today, the congressman charlie dent endorsed obama, congressman and said this. watch quickly. >> is it possible that the republican party is now the party of deranged bigots, and there isn't a place in it any longer for a charlie dent? >> i have a lot of friends in congress on the republican side and i know they are just as frustrated as i am. they're not in a position to sa this as i can, but they're frustrated and they know this i difficult and there in a bad situation is a party. piggy congressman, deranged bigots, that is what he threw out there, the republican party tonight. >> so they hire a former republican on cnn in their shocked by that. what about a democrat that gets elected, but leaves the party t join the republican party? that happened this year with jeff van drew, that is much mor telling than the sore loser who

ran for president or somebody who opened a studio in hollywoo or somebody who works for google . i think that tells much more about who believes in philosoph and that we will win one more time. >> cnn is utterly disgusting as well but nobody's watching, so it doesn't matter. for analysis of the night three some of the meetings on the edg of the convention were joined b ray arroyo. >> the democrats smartly programmed this evening through their speakers, there was a theme, america is finished, it' a dystopian nightmare out there and then they proved it, watch. >> bearing the economic front o the pandemic read. >> a lot of people clearly are in pain right now. >> for every farm there is a fight just a foot. >> there is hard work and there's heartbreak. >> we are going to lose 20-30 percent of our small

businesses. >> what they didn't tell you yo mentioned it earlier, these are mostly blue states where democrats shut down these economies, so it course it look back. this is what like the outtakes from the hunger games. a dark dystopian vision, this i why the ratings are so low rate people don't want this kind of gloom and doom for hours on end with a couple of speeches in between. tonight we saw kamala harris during her speech she invokes patriotism she said to love our country is to fight for the ideals of this country. i watched a couple of the dnc caucus meetings over the last few days. this was the start of the lgbt caucus meeting earlier today. >> if you don't have a flag, i have flag here. i pledge allegiance to the flag of the united states of america. and to the republic, for which it stands, one nation, indivisible with liberty and

justice for all. >> i think they left something out there, laura, but surely th muslim caucus event wouldn't exclude under god from the pledge pretty get a pledge allegiance to the flag of 89 states of america into the republic for which it stands, one nation indivisible with liberty and justice for all. >> laura, i don't know how they imagined that this is going to win over people of faith. we saw these plays were people of faith today, tomorrow we wil bring you even more of their interfaith council. this may appeal two secular voters, but people like them evangelicals run when they hear this kind of thing pretty. >> it's the kind of stuff that' in these pre- big speech events where you really find out what' going on in the party. and i think no one is watching these things, that you are, thank you, i'm not when you

watch, that is the nitty-gritty of radicalism and you get a taste of what your kids will be taught, what the justice department will be doing, what judges are going to p picked upon, their credentials and their viewpoints, that is going to govern, not were all going t come together and kumbaya along the constitution museum. that's not what it's going to be . to get beyond the happy talk, the flag waking and joe biden meets phone calls to people he meets on amtrak, you're left with this, what are the activists in the party, the people driving momentum and collecting voters, what did the believe? this is what they believe. >> we look forward to it, thank you so much. darrell scott as standing by with fiery responses from both to kamala harris acceptance speech. stay tuned. >> tech: when you've got auto glass damage...

>> laura: kamala harris' acceptance speech was about as electric as the state of california right now. focus groups tested out and you would expect that, including this line. >> this virus, it has no eyes. and yet, it knows exactly how we see each other and how we treat each other. and let's be clear, there is no vaccine for racism. >> laura: she went on to blame the higher death toll on african-american and latinos from covid on, you got to, systemic racism. dinesh d'souza, was a new movie be released on demand october 9th. also with me as pastor darrell scott, cochair of the black voices for trump advisory board. this was the animating theme of her acceptance speech. tell me that more democrats out

there are getting a little more creative than this? i found this very depressing tonight overall. >> i think it was -- in some ways it didn't even do justice to kamala harris because it wasn't empty vacuous account of how she came to be who she is. if there a lot of invocation of family, but it actually contradicted all the things that kamala harris has said in interviews earlier in our careers. she said that she was -- she was raised, by the way, on the indian side of her family when her parents divorced just as the two most info into people that shaped her life were her grandfather, a kind of indian socialist, and i know something about this, laura, because i grew up under india socialism. we had the ration card, which limited what you could buy, cooking oil and rice and sugar. so socialism basically deprived a whole generation of indians of their birthright, so there socialist ideology she apparently got from her grandfather. not one mention of that at all. and then her mom, who's had a

big influence on her, but a kind of a cynical one. again, relatively unmentioned, but she was the one who has made some very ascetical comments about kamala's rising to power by linking herself to influential men in this i think is again something that i think she didn't want to highlight at all, it contradicts the whole #metoo narrative, levitating your way to the top. all of this was carefully omitted from this kind of morality tale that we got to make. >> shannon: pastor scott, again, racism, it seemed like the running mate of joe biden or the virus was the running mate and kamala was a running mate, but your overall take on the appeal to black voters through this message? >> well, you know my friend did the play-by-play, i will give the color commentary. that was the most dull, boring, uninspiring acceptance speech i've ever heard in my life. she sounded like a kid in the

sixth grade giving -- reading a book report in front of the class. any black voters that were undecided before that speech, they are decided now. they are deciding not to vote for kamala harris. i will be honest, that was horrible. it was all i could do to keep from falling asleep while it was going on. for her to be at the supposedly pivotal moment in history and here she is, a woman breaking whatever this glass ceiling or whatever it is, this is all she brought? this is what she prepared? who wrote this, who prepared this? she ought to be ashamed of herself. whoever is being truthful with her needs to tell her i'm sorry, kamala, you're picked speech sucked tonight. maybe you can redeem yourself at the next stop but tonight you blew it, it was horrible. >> laura: i think i'm again, sarah palin's speech in 2008 actually laid out the vision for mccain-palen, what they wanted to do for the country. and she was trashed in the nicole wallace, all these people who didn't like the vision i guess, or didn't like her.

but it was a better speech than this. this was just a walk down memory lane, plus donald trump's incompetent -- blah, blah, blah, same old stuff with art in any given night on any of the other cable, so how does that make her different? i think she was poorly served, i think pastor scott is absolutely correct there. >> well, the problem for kamala harris is that her record as a prosecutor is very infuriating to the progressive left. that's not something she could possibly have highlighted because it would have actually boomerang on her. so then we come to all that she really has left, which is the identity politics narrative. the first black woman narrative and to make that work, she has to be a genuine victim, she has to ultimately be someone who was done wrong by society, but in reality of course, a life of one almost unadulterated privilege, every sector of american life lifted up by two very successful professional parents and with a background behind them. so she ultimately -- the

narrative doesn't work and that's why as a candidate kamala doesn't work. >> shannon: in six hours of prime time programming, the black lives matter group has been mentioned about six times, but in the panels, that populate the daytime, hosted by all of those activists we are talking about, it was mentioned many times in a single sentence. pastor scott, and about 20 seconds, why the disconnect, daytime, prime time? >> the disconnect is because the audience they are trying to reach and the message they are trying to present and it just shows where there that they are not even united in what their endeavors in this are. i will say this as well, with the conditions that are currently gripping this country with the violence in certain areas, their lack of mention is disgusting and disturbing, americans want leadership, americans want inspiration. they don't want information, we want inspiration and it's woefully lacking during these

convention. >> laura: great to have both of you want on it, really enjoyed the conversation. we will see you soon. and up next, we will bring you shannon bream and the "fox news @ night" team, they take it all from here. >> shannon: all right, laura, some thought-provoking conversation there, we will pick up where you left off, thank you very much. >> laura: take care. >> shannon: we begin with a fox news alert. after three nights of the democratic national convention, what is clear is that the party is making a fervent appeal to progressives visually and virtually while trying to keep its platform closer to the center by watering down things like climate change plans for example. the television ratings have plummeted on broadcasts, but the dnc has been streaming caucus meetings that feature controversial speakers making contentious statements typically associated with a hard left. we've got them for you. they're showcasing that democratic heavyweights, former president
