thank you for joining us. download that song and make it number one. >> i'll run to the radio, >> we have steve danes and nancy grace and shannon bream. don't miss a minute. >> have a good weekend. [crowd chanting] >> sandra: police declaring an unlawful assembly overnight in louisville, kentucky. protestors taking to the streets, smashing windows and vandalizing city buses as violent demonstrations spread across the country for a second straight night following wednesday's grand jury decision in the breonna taylor case. i'm sandra smith. hello, trace. >> trace: i'm trace gallagher. two dozen people arrested overnight in louisville including a state representative to introduce a

ban no-knock warrants. lining up for roll call. the suspect charged in that attack is now scheduled to be arraigned today and the mayor of louisville is calling for peaceful protests heading into the weekend. >> it's important for those taking to our streets and those supporting demonstrators from home to understand the power of this moment. you have the attention of the people who lead our government, our businesses, our education. we've engaged in this work and ready to do a lot more but we have to do it together and violence only hurts this cause. >> sandra: mark is live in louisville. >> things have calmed down from last night. as you can imagine there is a lot we want to learn about what happened last night after 24 people were arrested. a lot of destruction throughout the city. take a look at some of the video from overnight gives you

an idea what police were dealing with. demonstrators were out there shattering some of the windows including at the steakhouse downtown and spray painting city buses and tried to city the city's library on fire with a flair. the damage to that was minimal. a state representative was arrested from the riots. scott has been a vocal supporter of protestors and authored the end of no-knock warrants. no police officers were hurt jaefr night. -- overnight. the two officers were shot the night before. one of the officers who was injured showed up for roll call yesterday. aubry gregory, shot in the hip. he is well-known in the department serving as the city's special operations commander. the man accused of shooting gregory and the other officer

will be in court within the next hour. 26-year-old lorenzo johnson facing multiple charges including assaulting police officers and 14 counts of wanton endangerment. there are a lot of concerns what may be happening this weekend. a curfew will be in place. the epicenter of everything where the protests are happening. a few moments ago i heard screams outside of the corrections facility near city hall. believe it or not there are people waiting outside every morning after people that have been arrested overnight for causing some of this damage, they're there to cheer those people as they come out of jail. that's what is happening right here maybe a block away from where we are. breonna taylor's family as well as lawyers will be holding a news conference within the next hour. we should get a better idea about their latest reaction to all this then. >> sandra: mark meredith, thank you. >> trace: breonna taylor protests turning violent in other major cities.

in seattle crowds set fire to garbage cans alongside a barrier. smashed windows and spray painted buildings. this was the scene in hollywood. a car pushing through a group of protestors. the driver chased down and confronted by people in a pickup truck before driving away. at least one person was injured. in sacramento a crowd of 60 people marched through the downtown area while some protestors set an american flag on fire. in philadelphia, demonstrators surrounded two police cars that were blocking the entrance to a bridge downtown. >> sandra: justice ruth bader ginsburg will lie in state at the u.s. capitol today. she will be the first woman in american history granted that honor. her casket will arrive this hour at statuary hall and lawmakers, members of the legal community and her family will attend a ceremony. democratic presidential nominee

joe biden and his wife, jill, will also be there as well. along with vice presidential nominee kamala harris. we'll bring you that ceremony live when it begins. >> trace: it will be a busy day for president trump as he gears up to announce his supreme court pick tomorrow. set to make three campaign stops across three key states today beginning with latinos for trump in florida. the latest fox news polls show the president trailing joe biden in pennsylvania and nevada and locked in a tight race in ohio. kristin fisher live at the white house. kristin, how is the trump campaign responding to the latest polls? >> trace, they're continuing to say the same thing they say about almost every public poll and that is their internal polling paints a very different picture but quick to point out two states where new polls show the president ahead in the battleground states, arizona president trump is ahead among likely voters by 1 point

according to a new poll and then in the all-important state of florida he is up by four points. 51-47. florida is always interesting in a presidential election but especially this year because of squishy support for former vice president joe biden among hispanic voters from cuba and venezuela who have seen socialism up close and personal and a point president trump hit hard during his rally in jacksonville last night. >> the democrat party has been completely taken over by socialist, marxist and far left extremists. they embrace the poll east of cuba and venezuela. they want to end the american dream for hispanic americans. we love hispanic americans. [cheering and applause] it took you so long to figure out that i love you. how long did it take? no more of that stuff. >> and if by chance president

trump were to nominate barbara lagoa to the supreme court tomorrow that could help him even more with cuban americans in florida. as of now amy coney barrett is still the favorite. >> trace: president trump made a stop in north carolina yesterday and made some news on the healthcare front. what do we know? >> he did. at this event in north carolina he talked about and signed these two executive orders. what they would do is try to prevent surprise medical bills and protect people with pre-existing conditions. speaker pelosi says those orders aren't worth the paper they're signed on. the trump administration is working to get the affordable care act overturned in court. the president also announced that medicare people will also get some cards to help with prescription drugs. president trump will hit that as he makes the stops in the

battleground states, florida, georgia, virginia and back in washington and then to pennsylvania again tomorrow. >> trace: kristin thank you. we'll have more on the president's healthcare plan when health and human services secretary alex azar joins us live at 9:20 eastern time. >> sandra: thank you, trace. we look forward to that. more on the latest fox news polling let's bring in karl rove former white house deputy chief of staff to george w. bush and fox news contributor. i hear you brought your white boards. let me put up this fox news poll on the question of who is your preferred choice to pick the next justice. joe biden is polling ahead of president trump in all three of those key states nevada, ohio, pennsylvania, karl. how critical does this make the president's choice?

>> well look, this will have an impact on the election no doubt about it. but so far the choice that's generating -- ifm owe looking at internal polls in various states and one national poll. private polling. the democrats and republicans are energized. there is a group in the middle. 15% at most depending on the state that are withholding judgment. the nature and the presentation of the president's nominee will matter a lot. people will look at the president's nominee and make a decision is that a good person, do they seem to have what it takes to be a good supreme court justice and it will settle the case. for right now both sides are energized. the democrats, because they have had 16 years to develop a small donor fundraising machine have gotten a lot of money off this, $100 million in the first day and a half i believe it was after justice ginsburg died. they have the monetary advantage.

both sides have an enthusiasm bump out of this. >> sandra: first to president trump last night again on the issue of mail-in voting. listen. >> president trump: we want to make sure the election is honest. i'm not sure it can be. i don't know that it can be with this whole situation unsolicited ballots. millions being sent to everybody. >> sandra: another headline comes in, karl, on the doj ordering a county in pennsylvania to change ballot practices after what they are calling troubling findings. this is the u.s. attorney david freed on those discarded ballots in pennsylvania. we can confirm a small number of military ballots were discarded. investigators discovered nine ballots of the nine discarded and recovered. seven were cast for presidential candidate donald trump. what are we supposed to make of

this, karl? >> there are problems with mail-in ballots. trump carried that county four years ago and voted twice for barack obama and joe biden. so this is disturbing. and granted it is a small number of ballots. if that same practice is in hand even in that one county, by the time the election is over there could be a relatively large number of ballots. if this same practice is available elsewhere in the state, it could be really problematic in a close election. look, the problem -- secretaries of state had a conference call in may led by the secretaries of state of washington state and oregon to discuss it. they do mail-in ballots and warned their colleagues not to try to make a dramatic move to get a large number of additional mail-in ballots in this election year. you need time to put in place the machinery, equipment, training and processes in order to handle this all right.

took washington state five years to move from the traditional way of voefting to mail-in ballots. pennsylvania is trying to do it in less than a year. this year they had well over a million votes cast, maybe a million five. i may be off slightly on the numbers but a huge increase magnitude and we're seeing the results of it. people don't necessarily know how to handle these things. >> sandra: karl, this as the latest fox news polling reveals those are the going to cast their votes by mail do strongly favor joe biden. you can put it up on the screen. when polled in ohio, nevada, pennsylvania. i said where is bernie sanders on all this? listen? >> we must insure in this unprecedented moment in american history that this is an election that is free and

fair. this is not just an election between donald trump and joe biden. this is an election between donald trump and democracy. and democracy must win. >> sandra: democracy must win says bernie sanders. karl, what do you have there? show us. less than 40 days out from election day. we have the first presidential debate happening next tuesday night. the president announcing his pick for the supreme court tomorrow at 5:00 p.m. your final thoughts, karl. >> bernie sanders should have stopped at the point of saying free and fair because everybody can agree on that. the idea that somehow or another president trump represents a threat to democracy and your choice is democracy or fascism. i like being lectured by a guy who spent his honeymoon in a soviet union and democratic socialist. i like being lectured about democracy by him. he refuses to condemn what's

going on in venezuela. all americans should want a free and fair election. the aftermath of this election will be everybody in the courthouse arguing over disputed ballots and disputed outcomes and it won't be good for our country. we saw it in 2000 with 36 days in florida. that will look like child's play i bet after this election. >> sandra: great to have you here to kick it off. i told you i had a lot of questions. stay with us. fox news has special coverage this weekend. the big events that lie ahead. starting tomorrow at 5 p.m. eastern time president trump planning to announce his nominee for the supreme court. on sunday i'll be hosting a special edition of "america's newsroom" ahead of the first debate. that will be happening 3:00 p.m. eastern time. catch the presidential debate tuesday night moderated by our very own chris wallace. president trump and democratic nominee joe biden set to square off for the very first time on stage together. that will begin at 9:00 p.m.

eastern time on the fox news channel. >> trace: justice ruth bader ginsburg will make history today lying in state at the u.s. capitol as the first woman. with just 39 days until the election president trump is rolling out his healthcare vision saying he will protect americans with pre-existing conditions in the midst of the coronavirus pandemic. but democrats call his plan an insult. hhs secretary alex azar joins us next. >> president trump: these are tremendous options that didn't exist before we came into office. we're putting american patients back in charge and we're putting them first.

>> trace: at least two people injured in a knife attack in paris. suspect was arrested it happened today outside the offices of charlie. the trial of accused accomplices to the attacks to the newspaper was underway across town. no word on whether the stabbing and trial are related. >> president trump: my plan expands affordable insurance options, reduces the cost of prescription drugs, will end surprise medical billing, increases fairness through price tans pair en see. streamlines bureaucracies. strongly protects medicare and patients with pre-existing conditions. >> sandra: the president in charlotte yesterday saying his administration is working to insure americans have access to the care they need.

he signed executive orders making sure those are pre-existing conditions retain healthcare coverage even if the supreme court overturns the affordable care act. joining us now is health and human services secretary alex azar. great to have you here this morning. nancy pelosi responded saying it's an insult to the american people. she says it is not worth the paper that it is signed on. why is this not being met with support from democrats? how do you address their concerns? >> i don't understand how they can be opposed to the notion that the policy of the united states that people with pre-existing conditions will receive access to affordable coverage. perhaps it's because they believe their lies about the affordable care act that it guaranteed protection against pre-existing conditions for people. that promise was made in the affordable care act. for 30 million americans priced out of the individual market by the excesses and infirmities of the affordable care act it

doesn't solve their problem. for those in the affordable care act let me give you an example. a 55-year-old couple in missouri making $70,000 a year will pay $30,000 in premiums and have a $12,000 deductible. that's not coverage of your pre-existing conditions. it is a meaningless insurance card for you. president trump will work to insure that if the court strikes down all or part of obamacare, people with pre-existing conditions have real coverage, real affordable coverage for their pre-existing conditions. >> sandra: perhaps there would be more clarity if we could see the text of the order which hasn't been made public. can you get more specific with how exactly those with pre-existing conditions would be covered under these eos? >> what the president is saying is this is the policy of the united states and all of our actions will be consistent with that. and if there is an opportunity to work with congress to

replace obamacare with something that would provide real access to affordable healthcare for americans, he is making it clear that nothing will cross his desk and get his signature if it doesn't provide real coverage for people with pre-existing conditions. >> sandra: someone will hear it and say it's a vague answer. can you offer us any specifics this morning as to how the administration plans to carry this out? >> there are many ways to protect people with pre-existing conditions. the employer sponsored markets there have been protections for decades trancing from insurance. protects and insures access to affordable insurance coverage. but doesn't distort the marktd and collapse the market. there are many ways to do this. it when depend on what happens in the court and also what the composition of congress is at the time. there are many approaches. obamacare one is one possible

approach. it hasn't been the most successful. >> sandra: i want to ask about the president's plan to send out $200 drug discount cards to senior to help cover prescription drug costs before the election. mark meadows chief of staff to the president was on this morning and talked about it. listen. >> this is a great news for seniors who if they are tuned in right now in october and november you will be getting a card for $200 to help with your co-pay. it is the first time that money went from big pharma's pocket into american senior's pockets and this president made sure it happened. >> sandra: many pointed out the political move it may be on the part of the president before election day. how much of an impact do you believe this will have and help? >> this is very important for seniors' healthcare. i used to be in the pharmaceutical industry and studies that show if an individual has to pay more than $50 in co-payment for their drugs, they will not be

adherent to their medicines. it has a major impact on healthcare. what we're going to be testing is that proposition that if you can relieve american seniors of the burden of out-of-pocket costs through a $200 co-pay card will we see lower hospitalizations, better adherence and lower costs in the healthcare system as a result? this is a proposition that if you reduce out of pockets, that you ought to be able to reduce healthcare costs and improve health outcomes. >> sandra: one last quick question. "the new york times" was reporting the reasoning behind the president not getting something done which he was trying to do before the election on getting a drug pricing deal done with the pharmaceutical companies, "new york times" says the drug company executives didn't like the optics of it and the timing of it. is there any truth to that in what happened? >> these drug companies were offered the chance by the president to come in and negotiate and they didn't negotiate to get to a result so as a result the president has signed the most favored nation

executive order for the first ever is going to make sure that america's seniors stop subsidizing the lower cost socialist systems in europe. they will get the best deal, the biggest purchasers of pharmaceuticals. our seniors need to get the best deal, not the europeans. it's part of the result of what happened because of that. thank you. >> trace: violence erupting in louisville as crowds took to the streets for a second straight night. protesting the grand jury decision in the breonna taylor case and the protests erupted nationwide. we'll have a live report. a ceremony set to begin shortly as justice ruth bader ginsburg becomes the first woman in history to lie in state at the united states capitol. shannon bream joins us next.

>> trace: justice ruth bader ginsburg, the second woman to serve on the supreme court, is about to become the first woman in american history to lie in state at the u.s. capitol. her hearse has arrived on capitol hill. we'll pause when they bring her casket up the steps and escorted into the nation's capitol and statuary hall. shannon bream is the anchor of fox news at night.

we see the hearse and see justice ruth bader ginsburg's caskets. we're watching history unfold here. >> she is the first woman to lie in state in the capitol and first jewish person to lie in state. history made in her life and her death. a number of lawmakers, we understand. mitch mcconnell, the former vice president joe biden is there. others will gather as well with her family for another private remembrance much like the one that they had in the supreme court earlier this week. in both cases you will hear from rabbi, her husband was a clerk for justice ginsburg a few years back. they authored an article together called the heroic and visionary women of passover focusing on the leadership of women. she will lead the family through these remembrances today as well and lawmakers and

denyce graves, the singer will sing among other things american anthem. the song ends with this line. let me know in my heart when my days are through, i gave my best to you. a fitting tribute to a woman who made history in so many ways, who has blazed a trail many times for women who wanted to juggle motherhood, marriage. she was very open about her dedication to that with service as well to her country on the highest court in the land. >> trace: you mentioned denyce graves. a good friend of justice ginsburg. she was a huge opera fan, denyce graves an american opera singer. ginsburg saw her perform on many occasions. the flag is flying at half staff. 34 men have received the honor of lying in state. the first woman to receive that honor. the second supreme court justice taft, and as you watch this, the contrast is striking

here. the same building that ruth bader ginsburg will lie in state is also where this partisan battle is brewing over filling the vacancy of her seat. talk about that if you would. >> these two glorious grand am can, congress passing laws in response to supreme court rulings. they have been interconnected and happen here as well. the president's pick for his nominee is tomorrow. i interviewed mitch mcconnell last night and he said as he has always said all along they would move a nominee in this year. this presidential election year. historically close to an election and members on both sides of the hill are vowing to have an all-out fight over the seats and democrats will use every rule or procedure they can use. they don't have many. they're limited from a procedural possibility in a lot of ways but they say they'll do

what they can to slow this down. will a vote get through senate judiciary committee within the couple of weeks? that's the plan to get it through in october with a floor vote in the senate before the election. that's the plan i'm told. we'll see how it plays out. it doesn't take long for the heated battles to get started. with that name tomorrow we'll be off to the races with the actual confirmation process. >> sandra: if i may jump in as we watch this live together happening on capitol hill ruth bader ginsburg will lie in state at the capitol today becoming the first woman to be given that honor. a beautiful setting there in washington, d.c. on this friday morning. shannon, covering the supreme court my what a turn of events that we have seen in just the last week leading up to election day. put it in perspective, shannon, just how much has changed in the past few days. >> well, this is an enormous

change when you have somebody appointed to the bench by a democratic president and becomes a liberal icon that which ginsburg has. she pressed hard for women's rights. pay equality and lgbtq and the leader of the liberal voice on the court. the first person to ask a question when arguments got started there. she was strong. in strong voice in the last few months up until the end when we could hear her during these arguments she was very much engaged. fully intellectually and the guiding force for the four liberal justices who the end to vote together in many of the very tough cases. so to lose her voice is enormous for the leadership there. but to have her replaced under a republican president with a nominee who almost will certainly have a different judicial philosophy, see the interpretation of the context and content of the constitution

differently than justice ginsburg did. it potentially is a huge ideological shift for the court. so it is an enormous loss in any case but in this case when you have a president of an opposing party having the chance to fill that seat, it is really a very fraught moment in history because the two sides have so much at stake that it is ratcheted up quickly in the past week. >> sandra: as we just saw a moment ago, nancy pelosi, chuck schumer standing at the top of the steps awaiting the carrying of the casket. there will be a small private ceremony honoring ginsburg and then she, of course, will lie in state in statuary hall. the first woman to receive that honor. lawmakers will be invited to pay their respects in groups of 40 at a time. everything distanced in the time of covid-19. with women being given the first opportunity to head up to

honor her. important detail to point out in the planning of this day. trace. >> trace: it is funny, shannon and sandra, i look back on an article, an interview that ruth bader ginsburg gave in july of last year where even she was criticizing how highly partisan the supreme court confirmation process has become. she said when she was nominated back in 1993, you know, she was -- she called herself a flaming feminist yet overwhelmly confirmed and said it couldn't happen today and how highly contested the last two were and needs to change. a stunning statement she made a year ago on what this process has turned into, shannon. >> it is interesting that you mention justice kavanaugh. he has talked openly about the fact she was very welcoming to him and to his wife and his daughters when he arrived on the court. it is always difficult for the

new kid to walk in over there. a tight bunch. they share a job and an assignment and a passion that just a small handful of people can share at any one time. they spend a lot of time together and they do spend time in each other's homes, traveling, do events together. but he talks about the kindness she extended to him and he must have had some worries about showing up there at the court especially maybe with the female justices. but said she welcomed in immediately as an equal colleague and partner on the bench trying to get these things done right and make these decisions. in thinking about how much they spent time together i have a cookbook that some of the spouses of the supreme court put together after the death of martin ginsburg, her husband, because he was such a fabulous cook and loved to have them in their homes. they really do share time together and have these genuine friendships. they're all grieving now not only losing someone

professional but a whole different level for them. the court is in grief over this as well having lost a professional colleague but close friend and somebody that in many ways is part of a supreme court fam -- family that the rest of us won't understand. >> he was the cook of the family and he made that very clear they were married 56 years. >> sandra: if you could stand by with us we'll bring in chad pergram standing by on capitol hill. he joins us now as we take in this historic moment together. tell us the significance of this day and the moment we're about to see. >> it's significant in the fact there has only been more than 30 people who have ever lied in state inside the u.s. capitol and the fact that ruth bader ginsburg is the first woman to lie in state. rosa parks, the civil rights icon lay in honor inside the capitol ro tuned yeah.

this is lying in the statuary hall. they did that with elijah cummings. they will rest this casket on a wooden platform that they built for abraham lincoln's funeral. every time you have a state funeral at the capital they use it. it was significant they used it across the street at the supreme court and she will lie in state atop of that later today. they used it for john lewis. let me give you facts about what will happen today. we had john lewis lie in state earlier, the first african-american to lie in state and although she is not in the rotunda she will lie in statuary hall.

the rabbi will deliver a remembrance. they authored an article and hear a pair of musical selections from denyce graves. among the songs american anthem. the selection concludes with a very moving final line let me know in my heart when my days are through, america, i will give my best to you. we've had joe biden, the former vice president and democratic presidential nominee arrive here as well as kamala harris, the democratic vice presidential nominee. they will -- harris will be on the judiciary committee when they consider the nominee president trump puts forth tomorrow as we get into a raucous time on capitol hill. but today is remembering ruth bader ginsburg. when i was leaving the capitol yesterday afternoon they had the honor guard rehearsing. they do it periodically.

they had a hearse and going back and forth with the casket to take her up the house steps. you'll see michael stinger, the senate sergeant-at-arms and paul irving the house sergeant-at-arms. they'll escort the honor guard up the capitol steps inside the rotunda and make a left to the united states capitol stat year ral. -- statuary hall. the flag is flying at half staff. harris when she came in this morning was asked by my colleague jason what is the significance of her coming here today? she said to honor one of the greatest americans who has ever lived. >> sandra: all right, chad, stay with us as well. thank you. >> trace: let's bring in juan williams, fox news analyst and

co-host of "the five". we sit there and watch the hearse carrying the casket of ruth bader ginsburg when they begin carrying that up the steps of the capitol we'll pause for that moment. juan, it's interesting because you look back. we talk about the things that have changed just in recent years and before ruth bader ginsburg state schools did not have to admit within, right? they couldn't sign a mortgage on their own or get a bank account. the protections of pregnant women in the workplace. women who were not allowed to serve on joour east. -- juries. she fought for that and supported same-sex marriage. the list goes on and on and we see the ceremony that's about to unfold. there really is, it's an amazing legacy that ruth bader ginsburg has left behind. your thoughts. >> she was a trailblazer in

terms of women's right. i want to highlight to the audience the idea of not only inclusion, that would be the bmi case, the virginia military institute where she argued against 157-year history of exclusion of women from that school and won. but then she also laid the ground work in terms of pay equity for women. something that is such a hot topic even today that women should be paid in terms of their value and not somehow denigrated because saying they're not the prime bread winner for that family or you'll go off and be a mom. ruth bader ginsburg pushed that issue so strongly. she lost it in the courts but it went over to the congress and the congress responded with the lily led better act. to pick up on that amazing list of accomplishments you were talking about. this is the 100th year of women's right to vote.

in some sense it is a sort of brass tack to say that we are saying goodbye to a woman who advanced so much of the women's cause over that 100-year history since women won the right to vote here in 2020. when people think about why she is so well regarded and such an emotional figure, the night she died people laying flowers, people just organically gathering at the supreme court, i think in large part it is because american women but especially young american women saw this quiet, small, rather reverential figure as someone who didn't need to be loud or rude or aggressive but was so powerfully effective in accomplishing social change. she is just -- that's why people see her as a hero. >> sandra: carrie severino

former law clerk for clarence thomas. we're watching this all together as this ceremony is about to begin on the steps of the capitol there. your thoughts and your reflections as you look back at the life of ruth bader ginsburg as we see the casket about to come out. >> definitely trail blazing figure. someone who is a woman and lawyer myself i admire all she was able to accomplish especially in an era where it was so much harder for women to even get a job after law school let alone to rise to the levels that she did in her career. i also loved -- i clerked for justice thomas in the supreme court and loved seeing the bridges she built across and among all the different colleagues in the court. in a world where we have so much inability of people to reach across the aisle to listen to people who they may disagree with, even fervently.

she was famous for her relationship with justice scalia on that front but with all of her colleagues. it wasn't simply a pragmatic if i'm nice then maybe i will win their vote. it was a humanity reaching out to humanity and an ability to love and respect others with whom you delivered. that's something we all can really take a less quon from today. -- lesson from today. >> sandra: the first woman to ever lie in state in the u.s. capitol and also the first jewish person to do so and receive that high honor. as we see all of this beginning on capitol hill on this friday morning, historic moment as we look back and remember the life and legacy of the former justice ruth bader ginsburg. we are going to take a quick pause and let our other fox stations around the country join us.

>> sandra: this is fox news coverage of the ceremony on capitol hill honoring justice ruth bader ginsburg. she is the first woman to ever lie in state at the u.s. capitol. i'm sandra smith in new york. let's take this moment in together.

>> sandra: you are watching coverage of the ceremony happening on capitol hill in which ruth bader ginsburg will lie in state in statuary hall in the capitol today. a look inside as trace gallagher is joining me as well. i'm sandra smith. you are watching an historic moment happening in washington >> trace: you see in the middle chad pergram was talking earlier as they bring the casket in they will lie it upon the wooden platform for lincoln. it is pine boards that have been like that for the past 150, 160 years loaned to the supreme court this week, which is very unusual. when they bring this in, they will lie her casket on the

lincoln wooden platform and the ceremony will go forward and we'll see tributes and we will see musical tributes from denyce graves and the ceremony here and the history is notable, sandra. >> sandra: rabbi lauren holtz blat who you saw at the supreme court will be delivering the remembrance. ginsburg and the rabbi authored an essay that focuses on the leadership of women. shannon bream is joining us. she covers the supreme court and she is taking in this historic moment with us. shannon, your thoughts. >> yes, because of her, many things changed over time. she was certainly a voice advocating before she joined the bench and her many years on the bench for equality for women when it came to the workplace, for pay, lgbtq rights and other things she championed through her life and a great defender of abortion

rights and a lightning rod for folks on either side of the aisle. but she often was in the dissent. she didn't always win the cases she felt she should win but talked about the dissents which she often read from the bench. not a regular occurrence. she would do that on occasion and she said dissent has to be good and you have to put it together well and write it. it could become the majority opinion of the future. when she wasn't on the winning side of an argument she was very detailed and passionate about her dissents hoping they over time would change minds and the country would come to see things her way and her dissents would be the majority opinion in changing minds. she was very bemuseed in the last few years at her pop culture icon status in the last couple of years seeing a documentary about here and a film and songs and memes about her and laugh she was well into

her 80s and had people who wanted pictures and autographs with her. she was aware of the position in our culture and entertained by it. somebody who was very gaishous and acknowledged it for what it was. >> sandra: let's listen together. thank you, shannon.

lauren holtzblatt. >> madam speaker, vice president biden, senator harris and to all our leaders gathered today, thank you. psalm 118:5. [rabbi singing] ♪

>> from the narrow straits i call out to you. you, god, answered me with expanse. in the chambers of justice ginsburg, hangs a framed piece of art that reads justice, justice, you must pursue. a command in the 16th chapter

of deuteronomy. the rabbinic tradition defines meaning to every single word in the torah. so there must be a reason when justice is written twice. the repetition here teaches even ezra, a rabbi, that time and time again all of the days of your life you must pursue justice. this was how justice ginsburg lived her life. justice did not arrive like a lightning bolt, but rather through dogged persistence. all the days of her life. real change, she said, enduring change, happens one step at a time. she faced many obstacles in her life, even from a young age.

so chosen as the valedictorian of her high school class, she gave no graduation speech. instead, she grieved at home with her father after burying her beloved mother one day before graduation. her family had already suffered terrible loss with the death of her sister when justice ginsburg was only 14 months old. but justice ginsburg kept rising. a full scholarship to cornell university and only one of nine women in her harvard law school class. after transferring to columbia law school, she graduated first in her class, yet she could not find a job. no firm in new york would hire her because she was a woman. these obstacles didn't deter

her. she pressed on. as she said in an interview with her dear friend nina, i quote, i get out of law school with top grades, no law firm in the city of new york will hire me. i end up teaching. that gave me time to devote to the movement of evening out the rights of women and men. i was nominated to a vacancy on the d.c. circuit justice o'connor once said to me suppose we had come of age in a time when women lawyers were welcome at the bar. you know what? today we would have been retired partners from some large law firm. but because the route was not open to us, we had to find another way. and both end up on the united

states supreme court. all the days of her life she pursued justice, even in illness. she fought five bouts with cancer and she supported her beloved marty through his battle with cancer as well. each time she pressed forward. she returned to work, to the bench, to the court, with focus each and every time. nothing was given. pursuing justice took resilience, persistence, a commitment to never stop. as a lawyer, she won equality for women and men not in one swift victory, but brick by

brick, case-by-case, through meticulous, careful lawyering. she changed the course of american law. and even when her views did not prevail, she still fought. in recent years justice ginsburg became famous for her dissents. despair was not an option. she said, and i quote, dissents speak to a future age. it is not simply to say my colleagues are wrong and i would do it this way, but the greatest dissents do become court opinions and gradually, over time, their views become the dominant view. so that the dissenters hope they're writing not for today but for tomorrow. justice ginsburg's dissents

were not cries of defeat, they were blueprints for the future. justice ginsburg loved her family. her grandchildren, her dear friends, her colleagues, and her court family, we all send our love to you. and justice ginsburg also loved the court to which she so devoted her life. a court for all of us. it was justice ginsburg's tenacious hope to preserve the integrity of the court. today she makes history again as the first woman and the

first jewish woman to lie in state. today we stand in sorrow and tomorrow we, the people, must carry on justice ginsburg's legacy, even as our hearts are breaking, we must rise with her strength and move forward. she was our prophet, our north star, our strength for so very long. now she must be permitted to rest after toiling so hard for every single one of us. may the memory of justice ruth bader ginsburg forever and ever be a blessing. god give us the strength and bless us with the courage, the intelligence, the bravery, and

the unbreakable resolve to pursue justice, amen. >> ladies and gentlemen, miss denyce graves accompanied by miss laura ward. [piano playing] ♪ all we've been given by those who came before ♪ ♪ a nation where freedom would endure ♪ ♪ the work for centuries have

>> sandra: you've been watching the capitol ceremony honoring the late ruth bader ginsburg. the rabbi offering her reflections on the brilliance and vision of the late justice, remembering her many accomplishments saying, quote, nothing was given. she changed the course of american law. now lawmakers, political leaders from across the aisles will now remember her in this capitol ceremony. please stay tuned to the fox news channel and this fox station for continuing coverage of this story. thank you for joining us. i'm sandra smith in new york.

>> sandra: trace gallagher joining us and shannon bream offering our coverage of the supreme court since the passing of the late justice. shannon, i'll bring you in first. the rabbi went on to say, quote, she did not arrive like a lightning bolt. real change, she says, happens one step at a time. as we heard the rabbi reflect on her life and legacy. >> it's much like we had discussed a little bit earlier. even when she wasn't in the winning majority opinion and authoring the winning decision she had these very powerful dissents that were very well thought through and articulate knowing she could be laying the ground work that would eventually become the majority opinion, whether culture change, whether the law changed, whatever it was. she was still making her argument in those dissents. on the days these opinions come out from the supreme court, the person who has the majority opinion will read a summary of it from the bench aloud.

not the entire opinion, not the main points. on occasion somebody would read their dissent. it is not an everyday thing. we often heard justice ginsburg read those dissents from the bench when she authored them and felt like they were very important making her case possibly to future generations and lawmakers. there were times what she did and said reverberate across the street in the capitol where they ended up passing laws and pushing legislation that would change something they felt was a wrong by the supreme court. that the court hadn't gotten right or the said it was up to the lawmakers to get it right. she was advocating even if she wasn't the winning voice. as she said it would have been hard in this day and age for her to be confirmed. 27 years after she was, there were very few votes against her. i think it was 96-3. it shard to imagine in this day

and age those kinds of votes happening. it is much more partisan and vitriolic these days. she was a judge in the bench for quite a while when she got to the high court. she already had a lengthy record of writings of her judicial theories and friendships built across the ideological spectrum and something that continued with her on the court and people who may have seen the law differently but thought friendship was very important. >> sandra: trace, a very interesting fact highlighted by chad pergram who joined us a short time ago that ginsburg now lies in state 39 years to the day that sandra day o'connor was sworn in as the first female justice on the supreme court. >> trace: interestings, shannon, you talk about her historical and legal record and the dissents. it's from bush versus gore when

conservatives voted they should stop counting the disputed ballots. she said that a constitutional adequate recount is impractical is a prophesy the court's own judgment will not allow to be tested. such an untested prophesy should not decide the presidency of the united states. and i dissent. it is that whole vein where you say the dissent is often as powerful a part of the record as the majority's opinion these days. >> sometimes that's the impetus for change and gets the ball rolling and conversation changing. we've seen that over the years over the long history of the court here that often the dissents were paving the way for a future for a much different decision. she made sure the dissents were powerful, accurate and provided a roadmap to where she hoped things would go next. sometimes they didn't, sometimes they did.

she wanted to lay down that marker. even with her powerful dissents and often her buddy scalia were on the other side. they had things in common. grown up in new york. they loved opera. we heard from denyce graves today and how much justice ginsburg enjoyed seeing her power form and meeting her. they traveled together. it was something very genuine. cast carrie severino, it was across the spectrum. they are a unique family there in the supreme court. they have lunch together on a regular basis and there are rules. you don't talk politics or talk about the cases. you talk about books you're reading, grandkids, kids, trips you've taken or are going to take. they make it a very concerted and purposeful effort to have those relationships outside the bench. >> sandra: ruth bader ginsburg breaking one final barrier today becoming the first woman

and first jewish american the lie in state in the united states capitol as this private ceremony continues on capitol hill. you saw jill biden, joe biden just a moment ago paying their final respects. saying their final goodbyes as we remember the life of ruth bader ginsburg. we'll be right back. ♪ ♪ it's official: national coffee day is now national dunkin' day! celebrate with a free medium hot or iced coffee with any purchase on september 29th. to save you up to 60%. these are all great. and when you get a big deal... ♪ ...you feel like a big deal. ♪ priceline. every trip is a big deal.

rioting is not protesting. looting is not protesting. it's lawlessness, plain and simple. and those who do it should be prosecuted. fires are burning, and we have a president who fans the flames. he can't stop the violence because for years he's fomented it. but his failure to call on his own supporters to stop acting as an armed militia in this country shows how weak he is. violence will not bring change, it will only bring destruction. it's wrong in every way. if i were president, my language would be less divisive. i'd be looking to lower the temperature in this country, not raise it. donald trump is determined to instill fear in america because donald trump adds fuel to every fire. this is not who we are. i believe we'll be guided by the words of pope john paul ii, words drawn from the scriptures. be not afraid. i'm joe biden and i approve this message.

>> trace: f.b.i. has launched an investigation after mail-in military ballots were found open and thrown away in pennsylvania. most were votes for president trump. griff jenkins is live for us in washington >> they were found in a dumpster outside an election office near joe biden's hometown of scranton, pennsylvania. the u.s. attorney's office working in conjunction with election officials confirm the ballot discarded. investigators have recovered nine ballots at this time. some can be attributed to specific voters and some cannot. of the nine ballot discarded and recovered seven were cast for presidential candidate donald trump as the president ramps up his rhetorics and warnings over mail-in ballots. cheating on unsolicited ballots by political hacks or anyone else is against the law and

we're closely watching. speaker pelosi is suggesting he is trying to undermine the election's integrity. >> i don't think he is worth the trouble at this point. we have 40 days until the election. he is trying to discredit mail-in voting, which is hurting as you've heard some of the republicans say. this has been an important part of our electoral success. >> pennsylvania sizing up to be a central battleground. now in light of this incident in recent court rulings in the state extending ballot acceptance past november 3 republican congressman fred keller says he is worried. >> just begs the question if you can't handle it properly we find this many. how many more are there that won't be counted or might be sent inappropriately. >> trace: unclear if they will be counted in the election.

military ballots shouldn't be opened until election day. another battleground state police in wisconsin found mail in a ditch. some of which contained absentee ballots. >> trace: adds fuel to the fire. griff, thank you. >> sandra: fox news democracy 2020 we're back on the big board this morning. and the president will be later today -- we should see him making remarks a short time from now. florida miami-dade county. i want to bring in tom bevan joining us as we walk through why the president is making another stop in this state specifically heading down to miami-dade where the coronavirus pandemic has had quite a toll. this is the results back in 2016 where hillary clinton significantly won the county. he will be spending time on the

ground there courting the latino vote. tom bevan founder and ceo of real clear politics. tom, thank you for joining us. if i go and look specifically what they are facing as far as the pandemic in that county, miami-dade, the positivity rate in miami-dade is just under 19%. they've had their cases go up 2% in the last week alone. but they are still dealing with this as a significant problem with an older demographic. what is the president's plan there today, tom? >> the president will be doing a round table, one of the bright spots for trump in florida. this state is very close and it is critical to the president's chances of winning reelection. he really can't lose florida. his path narrows if he doesn't win nra. he is doing very well among hispanics in florida and cuban americans in miami-dade. they have to run up the score

in miami-dade. trump is seeking to press his advantage there among latinos which would give him an advantage as you work through the rest of the state which he is in much better shape in. >> sandra: he will head to georgia making comments on black economic empowerment. atlanta, georgia, you look at fulton county, the results of the 2016 election again a heavy blue county. for the president to be focusing his time there second trip in i believe just a month, tom. why is the president going to be spending time on the ground there? >> because the polls show that the state is very tight. i think the last three polls two of them were tied. one had trump up by a tiny margin. very, very competitive in georgia. one of the states that has been trending more democratic over time. a state that trump won but not by much in 2016. and they are having to work and spend time there. in addition they've got not one

but two competitive senate races there. implications for majority control in the senate as well. >> sandra: now i'll focus on york county, virginia holding a make america great event there. as you know very specific area that he will be focusing on that he won back in 2016. he loves to go rally the crowds there where he knows he has a lot of support. the real clear politics average, tom, as you know, does have biden on top in virginia. what do you expect to hear from the president on the ground there tonight? >> well, this is really a two-fer for the president. virginia is not a state that has typically been in play. hillary clinton won by 6 points. the last couple of polls show joe biden ahead. we got a poll yesterday showing biden's lead down to 5 point. the first poll since late february to show joe biden under 50% in the state. the trump campaign wants to test that and see whether there

is something happening in virginia that's positive for them. in addition, they are looking to have the local media coverage spread to north carolina. an area that went heavily for trump in 2016. >> sandra: you know the polls intimately coming from real clear politics. florida as we head into the big debate next week 40 days out from election day. joe biden still polling ahead of the president by just over a percentage point there. you flip to his next state visiting today here is georgia where the president is maintaining just over a 1% lead over joe biden there. and as you just mentioned and as we just discussed, here is the lead for joe biden on the ground in virginia. the president trying to do some work there. tonight how much do you expect the debate tuesday night to change things? final thoughts. >> tough to say. this is one of the pivotal moments or could be. both campaigns are taking it

that way. ux expect fireworks. both candidates will come out swinging on stage. we don't know. we always approach these debates -- you can't necessarily win the race by debate performances but you can certainly lose the race by having a bad debate performance. that's what both campaigns are focused on trying to have a good night and induce their opponent to have a bad night. >> sandra: tom, thanks for taking a spin on the touch screen today. a lot to take in and you covered it well. thank you, tom. trace. >> trace: michael bloomberg facing legal scrutiny after paying off fines for felons in florida. the claim that he may have been trying to buy votes and broke state law. we'll talk to florida attorney general ashley moody next. non-valvular afib can mean a lifetime of blood thinners.

and if you're troubled by falls and bleeds, worry follows you everywhere. over 100,000 people have left blood thinners behind

with watchman. it's a one-time, minimally invasive procedure that reduces stroke risk-- and bleeding worry--for life. watchman. it's one time. for a lifetime.

>> sandra: we're celebrating hispanic heritage month

honoring hispanic and latino americans, 40 years since diaz lifted off into space at the first hispanic astronaut. we're live in brooklyn, new york for us this morning. >> good morning, dr. frankling change diaz was an astronaut for 25 years and still pushing the limits of pace exploration. >> we're trying to make transportation in space go fast. >> he is the president. >> what it is that your company is trying the accomplish? >> imagine a mission to mars in a matter of maybe two months of instead of a year.

>> sandra: he says it will be ready the fly in three years. it's a culmination of history in space. >> the moment of lift-off on the first flight was something that i will never forget. it is a tremendous ride. >> born in costa rica at 18 years old he came to the united states with just $50 in his pocket. he learned english, went to get his ph.d. at mit in 1980 became an astronaut. one of only two astronauts to have flown on seven space shuttle missions. >> we still wake up with smiles on our faces even though we're tired. >> the second astronaut to log more than 1,000 hours in space. in 2012 he was inducted into the nasa hall of fame. >> i'm actually today most thankful to this great nation that in 1968 opened the doors

for me to the american dream. >> he is an american hero who paved the way and inspired so many. there were 11 latino astronauts after him. >> sandra: bryan, thank you for that. >> trace: breaking news out of louisville. the family of breonna taylor holding a news conference. the attorney benjamin krump. >> we're joined by a man who did an incredible thing this morning. jacob blake junior's father, jacob black senior traveled from kenosha, wisconsin to be here to meet breonna's mother. so we also have state representative charles booker and state representative atica

scott who are present with us today. fresh out of jail for standing for breonna taylor. [cheering and applause] now that's the transformation of leadership we need in america as we head into this november 2 election that matters so much for so many reasons. but for this moment in particular. this moment matters for breonna taylor. so if you were marching for breonna taylor, if you were exercising your first amendment rights for breonna taylor, if you were protesting for breonna taylor, if you signed a petition for breonna taylor, we need you to go sign a ballot and vote on november 2 for breonna taylor. november 3. i'm thinking early voting.

you know, obviously tamika palmer and her entire family. her father is here from michigan. give him a round of applause. [applause] breonna taylor's entire family is heartbroken, devastated, and outraged, and confused, and bewildered just like all of us as to what the kentucky general daniel cameron presented to the grand jury. did he present any evidence on breonna taylor's behalf? or did he make a unilateral

decision to put his thumb on the scales of justice to help try to exonerate and justify the killing of breonna taylor by these police officers, and in doing so make sure that breonna taylor's family never got their day in court, never got their chance for due process, and in essence denied them justice? that's why we are standing here today united in solidarity declaring and demanding that he release the transcripts of the grand jury proceedings so we can know if there was anybody given a voice to breonna taylor. because with these results from

this grand jury, tamika mallory, you know, wanton endangerment for the white neighbor's apartment that lived next to her? but no wanton endangerment for the bullet that went into the apartment of the black neighbors above her apartment? and no wanton endangerment for the bullets that went actually breonna taylor's apartment? and no wanton murder charges for the bullets that mutilated breonna taylor's body? mr. blake, it underscores what we have been saying all along, there seems to be two justice systems in america. one for black america and one

for white america. this has been emphasized by this grand jury proceeding into the killing of breonna taylor. you know, it is kind of ironic when you think about the message that has been sent from this grand jury ruling. it's like they charged the police for missing -- shooting bullets into black bodies but not charging the police for shooting bullets into black bodies. where did that happen at? >> in kentucky, in louisville. in the commonwealth of kentucky. >> and we question what

evidence did kentucky attorney general send to the grand jury? did he tell them about the probable cause affidavit that had a lie on the affidavit which was the basis for which the judge signed this no-knock warrant in the first place to allow them to be at breonna's apartment and bust open her door? because if he didn't sign that, what did he argue on breonna's behalf? did he tell them about the 12 neighbors that they interviewed and recorded that lived in close proximity of breonna's apartment that all said they did not hear the police knock and announce their presence? did he let them testify before

the grand jury? did he allow the one neighbor who they keep proclaiming that heard the police knocking testify before the grand jury, even though tamika, and i understand there were two previous occasions he declared that he did not hear the police knock and announce. so is this the only person out of her apartment complex that he allowed to testify before the grand jury? that doesn't seem fair. that doesn't seem like you are fighting for breonna. that doesn't seem like you are putting forth evidence for justice for breonna. did he let the cops who shot over 30 rounds of bullets in

breonna's apartment, one from outside the apartment shooting recklessly and blindly and the others who shot bullets into her body, did he allow them to testify before the grand jury? did he allow breonna's boyfriend, kenney walker, to testify before the grand jury? did he talk about them sending the ambulance away before they executed this no-knock warrant violating their own policies and procedures knowing that these no-knock warrants are dangerous? and it was for a symbol that somebody could be injured, a citizen, or police, or a third party innocent bystander like breonna taylor who lived in that apartment and who had every right to legally be in

that apartment, who did not have a gun. only clothed in her night clothes and had every right to live and breathe in her apartment? did he present that to the grand jury? he didn't present these things to the grand jury, what kind of sham grand jury proceeding was this? >> kangaroo court. >> it follows a pattern of the blatant disrespect and marginalization of black people but especially black women in america who have been killed by police. because part of breonna's legacy will always be, just like trevon martin and michael

brown raised america's consciousness level and attention to black lives matter, breonna's legacy will be that black women's life matters, too. [applause] >> so when we think about this grand jury proceeding, if you want us to accept the results, then release the transcript. release the transcript so we can have transparency. and if you did everything that you could do on breonna's behalf, you shouldn't have any problem whatsoever, daniel cameron, to releasing the transcript so that we could see you if work for all of

kentucky's cities including tamika palmer's daughter, breonna taylor. release the transcript. release the transcript. release the transcript. the release the transcript. release the transcript. release the transcript. release the transcript. release the transcript. release the transcript. release the transcript. i don't know if daniel cameron can hear us. let's say it from the heart so not only daniel cameron can hear us but breonna taylor can hear us from heaven we want daniel cameron, the kentucky attorney general to do, on three, one, two, three. release the transcript. at this time, you know, before i bring up one of the greatest lawyers, one of the greatest

secrets in louisville, kentucky, my co-counsel, my sister, my co-warrior lonita, baker, i would be remiss, tamika, people who are in the fraternity that you are in from all over america, a fraternity that no parent wants to be in, but far too many black mothers and fathers are part of, have sent their pledge of support to stand with you. all of them couldn't come like mr. jacob blake sr. but all of them sent their support. when the announcement came out,

the brothers and sisters from george floyd who was killed in minneapolis, minnesota were the first ones to pledge their support. and then right after that, we got a call from sabrina, trevon martin's mother and right after that we got a text from michael brown's mother, leslie mcfadden and right after that we got a call from jones' mother who was killed in his apartment in dallas, texas. we got a call from his mother, alison jones and his sister, alicia findlay. we got a call from house representatives lucy mcbeth and jordan davis. whose son was killed for playing loud music. we got a call from dr. tiffany,

the twin cities of terrance crutcher killed in tulsa, oklahoma. we got a call from eric gardner's mother from staten island, new york. we got a call from tamarah rice. we got a call from minneapolis, minnesota, philando castile's mother. we got a call from stefan clark's brother, and grandmother, who was killed in sacramento, california. we got notified that sandra bland's mother is pledging her support to be with you. we got notified that ford, our brother who was having a mental

health crisis in los angeles, california is pledging his support. dijon kinsey who was shot two weeks ago in the back by the los angeles county sheriff's department. i left locals coming here. raised him weeps for you even though she lost her nephew who she raised as her own son. joseph richardson's mother, baton rouge, louisiana. the list goes on and on and on. so we are here declaring in breonna taylor's name enough is enough, america. enough is enough, america. enough is enough, america. enough is enough, america. enough is enough, america. enough is enough, america.

enough is enough, america. enough is enough, america. please join me in welcoming our great champion for justice, my co-counsel from the law firm of sam aguilar and deserves acknowledgement, a great, great lawyer. we give you attorney lonita baker. >> sandra: you've been listening to a news conference there on the ground in louisville, ben crump the attorney for breonna taylor's's family release the transcript, enough is enough. after the grand jury decision that one of the three police officers charged in the -- involved in the shooting death of breonna taylor was actually charged with wanton endangerment and he has gone on the record calling the grand jury decision a sham proceeding

that did not give breonna a voice. just now he said they need to release the transcript of the grand jury proceedings and also said he was bewildered over the lack of charges in her death and went on to question what evidence kentucky's a.g. sent to the grand jury. that news conference will continue there. we'll monitor it for news and we'll have analysis on what you just heard coming up in just a few moments. >> trace: fox news alert and you're looking live at president trump's golf resort in south florida and soon he will host a round table billed as latinos for trump. this as a new fox news poll shows the president trailing joe biden among likely hispanic voters. as often happens with president trump, other tap ickx -- topics may come up. we'll bring you the event live as soon as it begins. >> sandra: developing at this hour another night of tense protests on the ground in louisville with police and demonstrators squaring off at

times. this all coming a day after two police officers were shot during the demonstrations over that grand jury decision in the breonna taylor case. one of those officers with an amazing recovery. we'll bring you that and an update. a brand-new hour. good morning,, welcome back to "america's newsroom," i'm sandra smith. >> trace: i'm trace gallagher. president trump turning his attention to the hispanic community in the state of florida. his latinos for trump round table. hopes of winning the sunshine state. we begin with phil keating live for us in doral, florida. what can we expect from the president today? >> he is going to be really crumping his outreach to latinos he claims he has

accomplished over the past 3 1/2 years. we have a round table behind me. the lits just dimmed at the trump national doral, his big golf club here in miami-dade county just west of the miami international airport. this community in particular has a lot of venezuelan american immigrants who the trump campaign is certainly appealing to and they've made numerous visits down here to doral since he has been president. of course the miami-dade cuban american community an important demographic. just yesterday the trump campaign released a spanish language advertisement trying to court these voters and the biden campaign has done the same thing as well. spanish language tv very, very widely watched here in miami-dade county. telemundo and biden and trump are both appearing hard. the spanish tv ad buy for biden

was paid for by michael bloomberg, a $6 million ad buy. last week joe biden was up in tampa and then he was over in kissimmi. he had a campaign event with veterans in tampa and went to kissimmi which has a very big puerto rican immigrant community. they fled the island have the ended to flock to the kissimmi area. there are protestors or demonstrators outside of one of biden event latinos for trump and the biden event, of course, was targeting toward the puerto ricans. the way the polls are looking in the state of florida, 29 electoral votes show biden with a lead but shrinking and most political analysts believe trump must win florida if he is going to have a path to

reelection. the joe biden campaign hoping to counter that and take florida away and somewhat make november 3 an early night. >> trace: phil keating live in florida. back to that event as it begins. >> sandra: new poll showing americans are increasingly against the ongoing protests over police violence against african-americans. currently 39% approve of the protests while 44% disapprove. back in june the approval number was 54%. let's bring in mr. smith, the president will hold an event this afternoon before we hear him first in florida. it's my understanding you were able to hear a portion of breonna taylor's attorney along with the family members around him. what was your response to what just heard him and the chanting of release the transcripts and enough is enough, america.

>> i think what happened to breonna taylor is tragic and tugs at the heart strings of all americans who died in the way she did. we have advocated for police reform to create higher standards for police departments. if the president is elected for another four years we'll insure we will get national reform over the finish line. it is tragic what happened. >> sandra: i want to quickly get reaction to you from what we heard from charles barkley last night. i understand we'll hear from the president in a moment. first listen to this. >> who are black people supposed to call ghost busters? we need police reform. white people, rich white people are always going to have cops. we need to stop the defund or abolish the cops crap. >> he is obviously weighing in on the broader national conversation and debate that is happening in this country right

now. what did you think when you heard that, reform the police but stop talking about defunding the police said charles barkley? >> i think charles makes a great point. at the end of the day the communities that need the police most don't need to be defunded. they need to be invested in to keep those communities safe. that's why the president put forth an executive order that creates the higher standard for police on use of force, on issues like de-escalation training and creating a national database for bad cops. the more importantly the police want those high standards for the police departments. they put their lives on the line every day. to your point you never saw dr. king protest and distanced from violence whenever it was used. we have a playbook on how to get reform in our country. violence and tearing down our cities isn't the way to do this. >> sandra: really appreciate your time there.

we should see and hear from the president a short time from now. three big stops he will be making today. we'll be watching all of that. thank you. >> thanks so much. >> trace: staying in doral, florida breaking news. the president is just now speaking at round table latinos for trump. let's listen. >> president trump: you've seen the polls. they are having me up over a democrat, which is i think unheard of and it should really -- i don't think it will be unheard of anymore. crowd chanting four more years, four more years. >> president trump: thank you. we were in arizona and the reception was incredible. we're doing better than the opposition. the opposition hasn't been good to hispanics at all. very bad to hispanics. we'll go into that and do some questions later and have a little fun. but i'm very happy to be back at doral, it is great.

a good location, right? good location. >> yes, sir. >> president trump: nice to see my property even for a short period of time. i appreciate you being here and you are all champions. they're all champions. [cheering and applause] >> president trump: in arizona i was with a man, owner of the los angeles angels and he has done such a fantastic job. he has been so nice and i didn't recognize him and then i said haven't i seen you in sports owning the angels? and he was -- he stood up and made a very inspiring speech. he has done such a great job and i guess for mexico, right? for mexico, what a job he has done with the team. he signed albert pujols, he has trout, i guess who is considered -- i don't get to watch too much baseball anymore. considered the best player in

baseball. and so it's really the success of the hispanics, they call them latinos sometimes, hispanics sometimes and sometimes you can call them both. after about five years i figure out they don't really care. call us one of those two and we're okay. great business people. i'm thrilled to be back in doral with so many patriotic americans part of our extraordinary national movement, latinos for trump. [cheering and applause] and we are joined by republican party chair joe gruders. they had the abc/"washington post" poll. they had me down 12 points four

years ago with a week and a half to go. we complained. by the election they had me almost even. that was quick. we complained loudly. i have never done well in the poll and they have us up four in florida. [cheering and applause] it seems to be going well from what i hear. that's great. it should be going well. if you don't do a good job you'll be fired so fast your head will spin. i think we'll win it big. it just feels it really good. hispanic americans have been incredible. we have one right here that he gave a very inspiring speech. where is max? max alvarez? he gave a very inspiring speech. he gave a couple of them actually. i've been to a couple of them. he really took the house down at the republican national convention. but really at the round table a few weeks ago you were there, right? i want to thank you.

a tremendous success. they used to say he is the richest hispanic in florida. i don't know if that's true or not but he started off with $2 and i know he is rich as hell so that's okay. but thank you very much. [applause] hispanic americans enrich our nation beyond measure. look at him. what a job. hispanic americans enrich our nation beyond measure, they champion our shared values and embody the american dream. that's what it is. this guy was a fighter on the street. he used to beat up people. most of these people -- i know your story. actually, for what you do it's sort of cool, for other people it wouldn't be so good. he used to beat up people and somebody said come to the gym and let's see if you are so good. he goes into the gym and guys who were fighting for a long time he beat the hell out of him and said i think he will be

a good fighter and they were right. these are all different stories, right? you know, whatever it takes, jorge, right? whatever it takes. joe biden has spent 47 years selling out to the different interests in washington it's really sad. he sold out the hispanic american community sending your jobs to china. making your communities less safe. attacking your religious values and trapping countless children in failing government schools. he doesn't like charter schools or choice. choice is a very important thing for education. but he can't do that. it's just against the radical left. the radical left can't have it. you know about the radical left almost more than any people you know about the radical left. you have gotten some -- you've gotten big examples and you aren't going to be there and one of the reasons we're doing so well with hispanics. joe biden betrayed hispanic americans and i'm fighting for you and we're fighting like

never before. we can't let this -- anything happen. i think it will be -- i think this will go down and people are saying it's the most important election in the history of our country because they are stone cold crazy what they will do to our country. you see on the streets and the riots all the time. we don't have that in republican states and cities. you don't have that. endemic to the democrats and no bail, no this, no that. weakness all over the place and they take advantage and that's the way it is. it's a very sad thing. we go in, we went into minneapolis, we saved it. we went into -- we were going into seattle the next day and they raised up their hand and left. but this is after weeks and weeks. we have to be asked by the governors, which in all cases are democrats. in all cases. top ten cities democrat for dairng. look at what's gone on in

chicago and what's happened in new york in a short period of time. i love new york and you look at what they've done, the democrats what they've done to destroy it. they have some categories crime up 160%. one was up 300%. this all happened in a short period of time. we want to bring back and draft rudy giuliani. let's draft him. [applause] prior to the china virus, the plague that came from china. we received the lowest hispanic american unemployment rate in the history of our country. six months ago. we're building it up again. make america great again. we say now make america great again again we did it. we did it. i thought this would be a very easy election. i still think it is. there is a spirit i've never

seen far beyond what it was four years ago. it's incredible. [applause] more than 1.5 million hispanic americans were lifted out of poverty during this short period of time. think of that, 1.5 million lifted out of poverty. that's a record. hispanic american homeownership and household income reached all-time highs. records. all records, everything was a record. and if you look at the numbers, if you look at what is happening, it's happening again. we're in a v that will be big. third quarter numbers will be announced before the election and they'll be great. i think that gdp is going to -- estimates are from -- i heard one from 23% to 35%. and any one of them would be an all-time record worldwide. but that's what the predictions are. let's see what it is. it will come out two or three days before the election which i'm happy about.

we built the greatest economy in history and now we're doing it again. the past four months we added 3.3 million hispanic american jobs, that's a record also. a lot of records. [applause] joe biden would terminate our recovery with a crippling nationwide shutdown and $4 trillion tax hike. looking to raise your taxes substantially. max, i don't know if you'll like that. close a few of the gas stations? only 200 instead of 204. you don't want to hear about that, right? it will crush your whole -- everything that we've built. can't do it. they are looking for the biggest tax hike in the history of our country. he will lay waste to florida's economy like he ruined puerto rico's economy in the senate. in 1996 biden voted for a tax bill that ob lit greated puerto rico's pharmaceutical industry.

i didn't do it, joe biden did that. sleepy joe. sleepy guy. sent thousands of jobs to china. a lot of those jobs went to china. that's what happened. they took it out of -- you are nodding. you understand exactly. they just cut it. that was biden and his friends. i will reverse biden's catastrophic decision and we'll bring those jobs back to puerto rico. it will be happening. [cheering and applause] honestly, puerto rico, you've seen what happens. it is a little bit like habit. they vote for democrats but it is a mistake and it has changed with most hispanics. you know, we had -- i just got the bay of pigs award and i've gotten it twice now. [cheering and applause] and i got the total endorsement of the cuban population as you know. they were up two days ago in the white house.

they gave us the endorsement. we're doing great with that. but we also announced puerto rico $13 billion in historic disaster relief. [cheering and applause] so this is done by trump, not done by the democrats. you have to explain that. and especially to those in the puerto rican community living in florida. we have to explain that to them. this -- if i don't get elected you aren't doing anything with the pharmaceuticals again. they haven't even talked about it. they haven't thought about it. biden opposes school choice and vows to ban charter schools and opposes the florida scholarship program, a big deal. in the second time i provide school choice to every family in america. we'll have unlimited ability. it is already happening. many latino and hispanic americans came here to pursue the american dream. having left countries that they just felt was very, very unsafe.

you know it's a similar ideology. if you look at venezuela, you look at what's going on there and you will see some interesting things happening there. you look at that and you look at what's going on in other countries, some of you are from those other countries and you got lucky to get out. it is the same kind of thing you would see happen here. i tell you what, i'm like a wall. we're building the wall on the southern border. it is almost complete. i'm like a wall between the american dream. i'll say this because it sounds nice but it is true. max would agree with it. between the american dream. i'm a wall between the american dream and chaos. and a horror show. a horror show. it would be very bad. very bad. many latino and hispanic americans came here to pursue the american dream having left countries that had a very, very unruly group of people. throwing out ms-13 all the

time, the only ones not afraid is that guy there. he wouldn't be afraid of ms-13. the only guy in the room. but they are rough, they're bad and they're bad people. he is a great person, they are bad people. we throw thousands and thousands out of our country and if we didn't have ice and these people it would be living in real fear and real problems. you know, the funny thing about the southern border, the wall, safety, the people that understand the border better than anybody are the hispanics. i have had more support -- they don't want bad people coming into our country or want people coming into the country that will take their jobs and understand it better. i thought it would be the opposite. they understand what we've done on the border. we have stopped it. you can come into the country but you have to come in legally. incredible thing that's taken place. [cheering and applause] so biden is a weak guy, i think.

we have a debate coming up. it will be interesting. like going into a match, same kind of thing. a little less physical. [laughter] slightly. but it is -- you know, it's -- to win matches, i don't care how tough you are. he has guys so strong you can't believe it. but this -- what percentage -- you have to have this, too. but the head is what, 80? i'll go with 80. that's a lot. it's a lot but it is true. i've seen it. you have guys you know if they had the right up here they would be unbeatable, is that right? unbeatable. it's great that it's that way. it's really great. when he was vice president he met with venezuelan dictator maduro and showered him --

[booing] biden met with maduro and showered him with compliments imposed the toughest ever sanctions -- just really what he has done to us is just incredible. he has taken everything -- i put sanctions on the likes of which they've never seen and i'll tell you what, whether it's iran or whether it's venezuela and they already want to talk. everybody wants to talk. i want to wait until after the election. wait and a year ago i said you have a choice. we can talk now or after the election. after the election it will be a much tougher deal. [cheering and applause] cuba is doing very, very badly. cuba is doing very badly and that island -- they want to do something. i'm not doing anything unless i speak with my friends that came up to the white house. they know exactly what they want to do. you have to have freedom and we're going to do that.

we're in a very good position. but biden has met with maduro and it was all just lovey dovey and nothing happened. i imposed the toughest sanctions ever imposed in latin america. senator biden voted five times to cut funding to freedom fighters in nicodemus, anybody here involved with -- nicaragua. we sanctioned the regime. all these countries -- we'll make wonderful deals but we have to wait until after the election. i told them i want to wait. now their dream whether it's china, russia, you see the stuff that just came out on russia? so we caught them cold, max. we caught them cold. it was a whole conspiracy and it was the worst thing anyone

has ever seen and it was a takedown. we caught them cold. it was all the opposite. they were the ones conspired. they got caught. let's see what happens. we went through three years of crap. let's see what happens now. they got caught. did you see where they were buying insurance policies they were afraid they would get caught? they were buying insurance policies. f.b.i. agents buying insurance policies for themselves thinking this is really bad, we'll get caught. i mean, it's not even believable. there is more coming out. there is more coming out. it is getting deeper and worse and worse and it was -- it was spying on the campaign but that was the beginning. then it was a coup and you never think of this country as a coup. you think of certain south america countries, but we have them cold.

an amazing thing that happened. if the fake news would actually report it properly it would be incredible. [cheering and applause] but they don't have to report it. i have to tell you cbs did an incredible piece last night. an incredible piece. we caught them. and it's a terrible thing for our country and was so dishonest and the exact opposite. it was the exact opposite. they did deal with russia. in fact, if you look at it, joe biden's son, where is hunter, right? his official name is where is hunter? he got 3 1/2 million dollars from the wife of the mayor of moscow. think of that. 3 1/2 million. his son got 3 1/2 million dollars and he had nothing until joe became vice president. why? we're still trying to figure that one out. we'll figure it out. we'll figure it out.

you must be from cuba. [laughter] [applause] we'll figure it out. we are going to get him. but , no it's a big story, tremendous story. internet it is the biggest thing. nobody can believe it. it would be great if the lame stream media would do something about it. again, i want to commend catherine herridge of cbs. she did an incredible piece on this. you can't believe it. the last administration also surrendered to the narco terrorists of columbia. anybody from there? you have know what's going on there, right? joe biden even received the endorsement of columbian socialist petro. not good, right? not a good endorsement. a former member of m-19 gorilla organization, no good, right?

under my administration we work with columbia friends and have taken in tons and tons of really bad stuff. the obama-biden administration's cuba policy betrayed the cuban people and enriched castro's regime. i ended that. as you know, we ended it very strongly. [cheering and applause] we ended it. and we stand with every citizen of cuba, nicaragua, venezuela in their fight for freedom. this location is called little venezuela, did you know that? there are so many venezuelans, they liked me before i ran. this is little venezuela. tremendous venezuela in the doral section of miami. if you put up a house for sale

they say if it takes more than two days to sell you're doing something wrong. it's true. just like a really incredible -- a great location. and incredible neighbors, incredible people. i have gotten to know them really well because of this. they are great and it will work out very well. you watch. so we've achieved more -- i have achieved more for the hispanic americans think of it, i've achieved more for hispanic americans in 47 months than joe biden has achieved in 47 years. he has been in it for 47 years. i've been in it for 47 months. [applause] 47 months and this is amazing. 47/47. he has been doing it for 47 years. i get a kick. we should do this and we should do that. i said you've been doing this for 47 years and now you are going to do it? he is not exactly prime time. a little like the -- there will

be a time. this is not prime time for joe. he never had too much of a prime tie. i will say this 47 months and 47 years it's true we've done more. what we'll do now. we'll go around the table and say a few words. maybe we can take some questions from the audience, if we can. we'll do it fast. if we go fast we can take a couple of questions from them. it is great to be here with you. i appreciate the support. [applause] we'll go fast and take a couple of questions. >> good morning, mr. president. i'm usually a construction guy. you never see me wearing a suit like this. i true story i bought it two days ago. my name is dd we do sidewalks

and walls for highways and bridges and county work and city work. i have a construction company. having a company has been the dream of my life. especially given my background. so i was born in columbia in the early 80s where violence was terrible. [applause] terrible time. i actually lost my father at the age of 7 to violence and my mother was a single mother at the time. with a 5-year-old and 7-year-old to support us. she did an amazing job. luckily we had the great opportunity to come to the united states when i was 15. my brother was 13 years old. we moved to the united states and out of all the places in the united states that a latino family not speaking english or not going to the culture could

land we ended up in mobile, alabama. but talk about a culture shock, but what a blessing that was. that place some beautiful people. we ran across some amazing people that supported us along the way and then from there i went to the university of florida and graduated -- go, gators! graduated with a degree of civil engineering and then i started working for one of the largest contractors in the u.s. building roads, light rails, highways. but i've always had that dream in the back of my mind of owning my own company. a few years ago with my wife we decided to make the jump and go for it. it was pretty scary but the economy was so strong that it was the right time. and it is really rewarding but have had some tough days, you know.

a lot of times you hear politicians and people talk about what they do for small businesses and small businesses are the core of the economy. but in my opinion, mr. president, what you've done with the tax cuts for the small businesses have been the greatest achievement in years. [cheering and applause] i tell you why. a lot of people talk but there hasn't been tangible change. but the tax cut is real dollars. real dollars that go into businesses to reinvest. for me it means having extra cash in the bank at the end of the day to give bonuses to my guys because they deserve it. they deserve more than that, god knows that. but -- so it is amazing. the tax cuts amazing for a small businesses. so thank you for that, mr. president. gives me the ability to grow my

business, to take larger projects, to invest in equipment and people. so thank you for that and i hope people understand the importance of continuity. we have to keep the tax reform and help to small businesses for years to come. >> president trump: thank you very much. [cheering and applause] those tax cut that help so many businesses, including small businesses, they will be gone if biden gets in. you know they'll wipe them out. just remember that. it won't be the same. you will be losing a lot of jobs. that's the way it works. it's unfortunate. thank you, great job. please. >> thank you, mr. president. and the opportunity from you and your staff to share during national small business week my story. i'm erika beenfield, a puerto rican moved stateside at just 6 years old. [applause]

like many of us on this panel we came here for the american dream. that's not the only start to my story. it goes back one generation back. my grandfather was a prisoner of war in korea for two years. and when i saw what you and your administration did in returning the bodies to his comrades and others who couldn't make it back on their own it meant a lot to me. [applause] we thank them for their service. like my grandfather, my family also taught me great work ethic. and with the moral support of my husband back in 2008 i started my first brick and mortar business. 2008, you know that year, the

crash. during the obama administration, there were hardly any loans for a business like mine. i didn't qualify. but it was tough but we did it. i had an intern and myself and we started in less than 500 square feet. 12 years later, florida living quarters and my company thanks you and your administration qualified for our first sba loan. [cheering and applause] that 500 square foot store is now 5,000 square feet, 10 times the size. [applause] it doesn't end there. i signed an exclusivity to sell

only american made blinds shades and shutters. [cheering and applause] i said no to china. i will not sell chinese products in my store. [cheering and applause] last year in one year we saw 300% growth. [applause] when covid-19 hit, we were the second quarter into our newly expanded showroom and we had to make tough choices. i still remember the words from congressman waltz, keep pushing, the second wave of ppp is coming and thanks to you and your administration, we qualified not only for the ppp loans, but also for the sba loan forgiveness for six months. [applause]

it saved every job, even our intern from the local college. mr. president, i want to thank you personally for -- because i feel you've done more than what you promised. you say promises made, promises kept. you did more than that for a business like mine. [cheering and applause] it doesn't end there. [laughter] like you in 2016 i ran for office for the first time and was elected at the first latina hispanic elected official in the city of duberi. not one business has permanently closed in our city.

and i believe that is because we have kept taxes low. we have the lowest prime rate in the state of florida, and our people help each other. under the leadership of governor desantis, we are investing and bringing more people to florida. [cheering and applause] i'm not a polished politician. i'm probably more nervous. it's been four years. you do a really good job, mr. president. i invite you to visit our city and volusia county the home of nascar. the beast makes one hell of a pace car. i was there. i don't like heights and i strapped into my seat and was there for that beautiful patriotic moment high up in the bleachers. [applause] i hope you can remember me and my story because i will never

forget today and the opportunity to thank you in person and by the way, today is my 16th year old son's birthday, connor. i ask you to wish him a happy birthday because he is sharing with his mom just like you, to keep america great again. [applause] >> president trump: great job. thank you. great job. thank you very much. please. >> good morning, mr. president. it is a great pleasure to see you here in sunny florida. my name is juan and i'm an electrical engineer. i run a company here in this beautiful estate. we were worldwide in more than 45 countries from here. we also have operations in

chile, columbia and mexico. i have to say first that our company really received a wonderful help from the government and it is true actually the ppp program, the sba program helped us a lot to keep our employees. actually, we keep all of our employees and will keep them. let me say that. i have to say also that as columbian, i american columbia citizen. i had the privilege to work with the president of columbia and he is unfairly under house arrest. columbia is a beautiful country. you already mentioned that. we need you to help the country

avoid being taken into communism. i want to say also that i am the president of the columbian american chamber of commerce here in miami and all the companies that we support which are established here have been also helped a lot by the government. the government that you are now presiding and thanks to your help, thanks to your determination, you know, with the small business and really all of them are doing i would say pretty well. i haven't seen any of them going crashed. finally, i want to say that i cooperate with the department of commerce in particular with the dec which is the district council. i'm a member of the board there and i can see and i can say both that we are helping a lot.

american companies to survive. so, mr. president, we are extremely grateful because of -- thanks to your administration we're doing fine. now we need you to be four more years here. [applause] and we are rooting for america, for our country and because you are the wall against the communism perhaps the rest of latin americans. mr. president, thank you very much. i'm pleased. win again over mr. biden. [applause] >> president trump: thank you. i used to say and i meant it but i didn't know it had such meaning that we could be a venezuela, too. venezuela 15 years ago was a very wealthy country. and very, very wealthy country, prosperous. talked about all over the world.

one of the wealthyest and just looked like it had a tremendous toou en -- future. right now we send water and food. they don't have anything. they don't have medicine. they literally don't have water. and they have oil so it is not just the oil. they haven't done anything right with the oil. they don't know what is happening in that country. that country is a total disaster. it could happen. it could happen. if you look at some of these people that you see with the store fronts and breaking down and the riots and everything that's going on, it is the same ideology. that's what happened with venezuela. one day it was just gone. and so it could happen here. this would be a venezuela on a major steroids. this would be a venezuela that would be a very large version of it but it could happen. a year ago i started saying that two years ago it could happen. i see the thinking. i would see some of this

thinking and say that could actually happen. it could actually happen. we won't let it happen. with me it doesn't happen. you put the wrong people in office, you put the wrong people in office it could happen rapidly. let's talk. claudia. >> thank you, mr. president. it's a pleasure to be here with you today. my name is claudia and i'm from honduras. i moved to this country the last of the -- 18 years ago, 2002 and i married a wonderful man. have two wonderful kids and we both had background in manufacturing so we decided to start a business here in the united states and also in honduras. it is both. in 2015 when you started running for president and

started promoting the made in usa we said this is the moment. it is coming. so we decided to start -- take the risk and do some investment here in buying some equipment and taking advantage of that we had in buying equipment. that helped us a lot. we thought it was the right movement to move and start investing in equipment because what we are doing is printing fabrics and clothing. our business name is -- we created the business back in 2016. we started bringing more equipment, getting ready for what is coming, okay? and now after your three years almost four years of presidency we noticed how everything is coming back right now. how businesses were booming. even right now with all the troubles we have with the
