our lifetimes. >> massive juice for trump rally in new york city. videos showing rioters throwing rocks at the trump caravan from an overpass. >> time run out at the plate. ♪ jump ♪ jump in brian: hi, everybody, welcome. i hope you had a great weekend. i am sure it was restful. we are back with 8 days left according to the big board until election day november 3rd and see how long it takes to actually count all the votes. did i not know this but i think you will find this fascinating. tv cable viewers is up 23% from year to year and the average news viewer is watching seven hours and five minutes a week. now, we have the first three. are they dividing up the rest of the day? steve: brian, have you heard about the pandemic? people are stuck in their house.

what are they doing? they are watching more tv, obviously. it's great for us. brian: and going to trump rallies. steve: there is a lot of live programming which is terrific. also, ainsley and brian, good morning to both of you. ainsley: good morning. steve: so many people have already cast their votes. they have either done, you know, the mail in vote or they have done the in person early voting which started over the weekend in new york with gigantic crowds. look at that almost 60 million ballots have already been cast in early voting. that is more than the total number back in 2016. so wherever we go from here, we are in record territory. ainsley: yeah. we still have 8 more days. we have a little more than a week. tomorrow we will be able to say we are aweek away from the election. if you look at the cover of the "new york post" they're endorsing president trump says make america great again. brian: we will see if twitter will suppress that find out later. they don't have twitter account back yet because they had the

audacity to break a story. more on that later. because i have said that i have lost the ability to toss to griff. i have been punished by the control room. griff: good morning, brian, ainsley and steve. amazing we are one week away and election year tradition lately candidates sitting down for "60 minutes" and happened as well. trump biden, pence and haste all sat. although one of them got frustrated got up and walked out. watch. >> i see joe biden giving softball after softball. i have seen all of his interviews. he has never been asked a question that's hard. >> okay, but, forget him for a minute. >> you start with me -- excuse me, leslie, you started with me, your first statement was are you ready for tough questions? >> are you? >> i think we have enough of an interview here, hope. okay? that's enough. let's go. i will see you in a little while. thanks. >> be careful. griff: before cutting that interview short. both the president and joe biden

later in his interview addressed the pressing issues from covid-19 to the economy. and biden said he is not taking this election for granted. >> have you held a steady lead in the national and state polls. but so did hillary clinton four years ago. could donald trump still win this? >> sure. i'm one of those folks, competitors it's not over until the bell rings. and i feel superstitious when i predict anything other than it's going to be a hard fight. we feel good about where we are. but i don't understand how he plays. griff: like everything else in 2020 the campaign trail yesterday looked very strange. had you president trump holding a rally in new hampshire which is normal. but jill and joe biden appearing in a virtual concert no. in person events. now, today the president heads to pennsylvania. he will make three in person events. two of them are rallies. joe biden has no events listed on his agenda today. brian, ainsley, steve?

steve: but he is going to georgia tomorrow. griff? brian: needs time to pack. steve: he does indeed. he took yesterday off. only seen in public briefly to go to church. after his appearance on "60 minutes" his crew did have to do some mopping up, joe's did. because at one point he was talking about what he would do as president. he said he could send every american to a four year public college in their state for $150 billion. and then the biden people said you know what? it's probably double that so that was wrong. briefly when joe was at the i will vote concert which was virtually. did he appear to cause president trump george twice before getting back on track. it is curious. of course, anxiously and brian, the social media exploded and they go see? he is too old for the job. he just trump george twice.

ainsley: at the end of president trump's interview when he said i'm done. kayleigh mcenany brought his healthcare plan in and handed it to lesley stahl. she was questioning him about that. steve: it was gigantic. ainsley: huge. we won't do anything, plan, unless we have pre-existing conditions covered for everyone. mike pence came into the room and sat down and did have that one-on-one with lesley stahl keeping one tradition to interview all four of the individuals who are running. here is a little bit from mike pence. this was on mark levin's show. >> president trump has literally kept every promise he made tout american people and seeing our nation through the worst global pandemic in 100 years whereas we sit here today, we are literally weeks away from having a coronavirus vaccine and being able to put this pandemic in the past. but the president and i believe the best is yet to come. with four more years of president donald trump in the white house, we're going to distribute that vaccine. we're going to defeat the virus.

and then we're going to revive this american economy bigger than better than ever before. not with joe biden's plan of higher taxes, a green new deal, more regulation. ainsley: the president was asked what's first and foremost for him if he becomes president again or he wins this reelection? and he said just moving forward as a country being able to get back to normal which everyone wants. the experts are saying that there will be a vaccine at the end of november, beginning of december. when vice president joe biden was asked about his son hunt, he said it was a smear campaign, russian disinformation. but then have you lawmakers, republican lawmakers saying well john ratcliffe is saying that this wasn't russian information, disinformation. and the campaign, the biden campaign is not denying, brian, that those are or are not his emails. brian: the follow-up question was unbelievable. is it russian disinformation? how about the fact is it your son's laptop? did he walk in and drop it off?

are those your emails? are you referred to as the big man or the big guy in these email exchanges? you give him a lay up. you give him an out. this is why cbs is third at night. also, when you talk about are you the most liberal? yes, kamala harris, are you the most liberal -- are you liberal, are you a trojan horse? she laughs it off. do you know why? because there was no follow up question that your rating was above bernie sanders as one of the most liberal in the senate. listen. >> the president made the at the republican convention that your administration would be a trojan horse for liberals that aoc, bernie sanders, elizabeth warren, would actually be controlling policy. that this would become the most liberal administration in u.s. history. >> he would love to run against them, wouldn't he. mr. president, you are running against joe biden. joe biden has a deep, steep, successful record over a long time. brian: he goes on to say what

about the rioters and what about are you pro-police? they didn't ask her -- by the way, your staff, or on your urging, the rioters were bailed out. joe biden some of your staffers and kamala harris, you directly called for it. you cheered for the defunding of police when they took off $150 million off the lapd budget. to me it was unbelievable because they don't hit them with the premise of the question. they give them a generic question. steve: yeah. so, 8 days, ladies and gentlemen, until the big vote. and it is presumed that given all the early voting, most republicans will vote on election day. meanwhile, today, acb, amy coney barrett should be as easy as abc because they are going to have a vote tonight at 7:30.

the republican led senate yesterday has been in session overnight because they need to have 30 hours of debate between the time they stop voting on one thing and take up the next thing. by a simple majority yesterday, the republicans were able to move her to a final vote tonight. two republican defectors, susan collins of maine and lisa murkowski of alaska joined every democrat in trying to filibuster and this was actually, ainsley, one month to the day after she was announced as the president's pick to fill ruth bader ginsburg's spot on the supreme court. ainsley: that's right. the senate will be able to hold the confirmation vote today at 7:26 p.m. susan collins says she is not going to vote to confirm. it has nothing to do with her qualifications it's just that she wants to be consistent with how she has done in the past since we are so close to an elections. senator lisa murkowski says she will vote to confirm. this is how important as is he

pitching to voters. >> a vote for republicans is really a vote for the american dream. because we are about the american dream. [cheers and applause] in conclusion the next four years we will make america into the super power of the world. we will end our reliance on china once and for all. >> and we are giving you a great new supreme court justice by the way. [cheers and applause] that will take place on monday. the democrats are thrilled. monday. three of them. all great. ainsley: mitch mcconnell agrees with him. he says we made an important conviction to the future of this country. democrats can undo a lot of what they voted on. when it comes to supreme court justices it affects generations. if you look at president trump's appointment. supreme court, two so far this would be three. u.s. court appeals 53. u.s. district court 162.

u.s. court of international trade two. brian: i had chance because we were visiting colleges over the weekend so i was in the car a lot not able to see these rallies. i was in the car for i think almost all three. on saturday, i can't believe what a good time the president is having. he is having the best time on the stump. i think he is enjoying this moment. when you look at what he is doing in pennsylvania three events today. he has michigan, wisconsin, and omaha. then he has arizona again. i think people can appreciate when you want to go out and get something and actually earning it. i'm just stunned. steve, you outlined it. when joe biden talks, he gets himself into trouble. they figure -- can you imagine being the candidate and they think the best thing for you to do in the final stretch is not to do anything. that, to me, is such an insult. steve: sure, but when you look at the people who appear on behalf of joe biden they are great speakers. but they are surrogates. they are not the actually. brian: exactly. steve: candidates.

we did see glimpses of joe and kamala yesterday a lot of people have not seen them interviewed. then again it was not a live event. it was taped and all cut up. it will be interesting to see exactly where we go from here. brian: all right, let's go out to -- steve: by the way no, democrats are expected to vote for amy coney barrett. although joe manchin did vote a couple years ago for mr. kavanaugh. brian: everybody except collins will be on the republican side. let's go over to jillian. you have the other news. jillian: let's begin with this. two navy crew members killed in a training crash have been identified. navy lieutenant roth from michigan and morgan garrett north carolina died when their plane went down in alabama. roth was the instructor. garrett was her student. the navy says their devotion to the country will not be forgotten. no one on the ground was hurt. it is still not clear what caused the crash. the fbi is investigating what's being called a deliberate attack

after a ballot drop box set on fire. police releasing this photo of the arson suspect outside the boston public library. the feds say 35 of the 122 ballots inside were damaged. the city says anyone who used that box between saturday afternoon and sunday morning can request a new ballot or vote in person. power is cut off for hundreds of thousands of people overnight as a new fire risk grows in california. dangerously strong winds and dry heat could spark wildfires in the northern part of the state. power is expected to be out through tomorrow. meanwhile, snow is bringing much needed relief to firefighters in colorado. the state is battling the two largest wildfires in its history. and the los angeles dodgers are one win away from a world series title after grabbing the lead early in game five. >> here is a fly ball into right

brian: joe biden and president trump vastly different approaches. with president trump out on the campaign trail every day two or three events a day as biden stays at home for the most part. will this make a difference in voters' minds as he had hit the poll. here to discuss it director of heritage action jessica anderson. if you were joe biden would you say i'm so far ahead i don't need to try? >?i don't know that that's exacy happening in his mind or in reality. the vice president's decision to stay home with 8 days remaining not have any public events i think actually reflects the democrats' strategy really this whole year which is to run as the anti-trump candidate. and, unfortunately, i don't think that's going to be enough for swing voters who are looking for answers to things like who is going to provide economic recovery? who is going to provide safety and security? healthcare freedom? school choice? keep my family safe? these are the questions that

swings are looking for. they are just not getting those answers from joe biden when they don't see him. and when he is reserved on the campaign trail. that's why i think the g.o.p. is really going to turn out get out the vote in the coming days because they know these swings are up for grabs and do everything they can to bring them back. brian: i think people respect for somebody work for something that they want. the passion of the crowd is something stunning. i don't really see that i used to see it when you would see bruce spring stein open up for al gore or jay-z for hillary clinton but not for the candidate with no preshow. joe biden's strategy to call lid early is something that you think the campaign could be concerned? >> i think you guys lost me. brian: really. maybe it was something i said or could be the audio. probably not. i'm going to tell you the answer i was going to ask. his decision to put the lid early is because a lot of people feel as though his ability and his i guess compunction to make

mistakes. we also heard about the fracking issue. that came out during the debate. i dare you put the tape up. the president put the tape up. we heard about him gradually looking to get out by 2025 later amended. all fossil fuels. that really hasn't panned out well. he has been walking that back for two or three days. as we go back to jessica anderson. the third thing that, jessica, that he has made a mistake on is calling donald trump george bush. so do people see that and say it's just not worth it? >> well, i think they are seeing the filibusters, certainly, right? they are seeing the mistakes along the way. the arguments that we are seeing in a state like pennsylvania which trump narrowly won in 2016 offer an opening for president trump now especially on this issue of biden supporting eliminating fracking. this is a state that knows very much what it's like to lose an

entire industry overnight. black monday which started in youngstown, ohio with the steel mills closing down and then just spread all across western pa. voters remember that it's talked about on their kitchen table. and with vice president biden coming out saying he is going to eliminate fracking those are real jobs top of mind for voters in the state. i think that's opened up the opportunity for the president and it's certainly opened up the opportunity for the g.o.p. to do hard get out the vote in these remaining few days and get those voters in the bank. brian: the one question i wanted to ask you is the covid effect on the early voting. how do you see the scenarios playing out in the overall election tally? >> i think it does matter. democrats have taken advantage of the early voting period right now. they are voting by the tens of thousands. republicans generally wait for election day to vote. there is concern that they may show up on election day and the lines look really long because people are spaced out or something like 20,000 polling

locations across the country have already closed. their favorite location may thought actually be open. they are spending time driving around. that is really why it is so important that everyone votes this week. takes advantage of early voting. i think the g.o.p. is counting on that as they up their efforts to get out the vote the next few days. brian: all right, jessica, thanks so much. appreciate it? >> thanks for having me. brian: the senate is expected to confirm judge amy coney barrett to the supreme court tonight. what will this mean for president trump's legacy on the courts? one of the best in the business, carrie severino calls it a milestone for the constitution and the country. she joins us 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

democrats are for the most part sitting this out. because they know it's a math problem. there are more republicans and they are going to do it and the democrats keep saying, look, this never happened with merrick garland but at the same time they back then with merrick garland they controlled the white house and they didn't control the senate and the senate holds the cards. >> yeah. and elections have consequences. one consequence is we have president trump who is willing to put up such an outstanding and bold nominee. i don't think every republican president would have been willing to nominate someone who was as clear and firm in her believes as amy conebeliefsfor . election for the senate has serious consequences. senate high jinx with the kavanaugh confirmation ended up with republicans gaining more seats in the senate. the american people don't want to see that kind of politicization of the supreme court. and now we're getting to see that's exactly what they're getting. they're getting a senate who is willing to confirm these nominees who are very strong.

very committed to the constitution. and so the democrats are left frustrated, i understand. but i think it reflects what the will of the american people is, having constitutionalist judges on the court. steve: well, and this will all happen 8 days before the election. that's why the democrats perhaps now this will motivate democrats to go out and vote. at the same time it could motivate some republicans as well. for me, the sat thing and i mentioned this a moment ago, carrie, is not one democrat is expected to vote for her. i mean, with kavanaugh, at least you had joe manchin. you had one. but what does it say -- i mean, never in our recent history has there been such a political vote about something that should not be political. >> yeah. and you know, manchin voted for her along with senator tim kaine, the other democratic senators still in office here voted for her at the appellate court level. and we have even the liberal aba

says top rating for this office and not willing to vote for her in a sane world this is a nominee who should get unanimous votes like justice scalia did. like ginsburg nearly did. like o'connor did. we are not living in the same world. that's really sad to see that even someone like joe manchin who likes to try to pretend to be a moderate here at this point is saying no, i'm going with politics over principle. steve: of course, we will see it all unfurl on the channel 13 hours from now. thank you for joining us live from the d.c. area. >> thanks. steve: you bet. meanwhile, joe biden slamming the allegations about his son hunter. >> when you put the combination of russia, giuliani, the president together, it is what it is, it's a smear campaign. steve: smear campaign. dan bongino says the media are helping the biden family cover up crimes and dan joins us live next. ♪ go crazy on you ♪ crazy on you

the president that giuliani was being fed disinformation from the russians. and we also know that putin is trying very hard to spread disinformation about joe biden. and so when you put the combination of russia, giuliani, the president together, it is what it is it. is a smear campaign because he has nothing he wants to talk about -- what is he running on? what is he running on? ainsley: let's bring in dan bongino author of "follow the money" the shocking confessions of the deep state cabal. thank you for being here dan. >> thanks for having me. ainsley: john ratcliffe has said he is the director of national intelligence said this is not russian disinformation. what do you say? >> the interview was awful. it really was. and i just. it's really getting harder and harder for me to wrap my arms around how much the media outside of this network and some

other conservative networks actually doing their homework has flushed their reputations down the toilet ball. i can't believe his there look not look back in horror what's going on. think about this, ainsley. you have a potential president of the united states i hope not. i mean i'm a republican. i'm not a journalist here. i'm an opinion commentator. i hope donald trump wins. but you have a potential president in joe biden who could be i in the back pocket of one f the nuclear powered enemies of the united states and china. this is not a joke. listen, i was in the intelligence law enforcement surrounded by field for over a decade of my life. so am i going to accept any lectures from journalists 19 and 20 got out of journalism school 5 minutes ago. you don't know what you are talking about so sit down. this is how this works. the chinese are not stupid. what do you think they were doing in this potential deal with the bidens for millions of dollars where the big guy, joe biden, that's confirmed, was

supposed to get 10%? serious question. not a joke for the audience. what the hell do you think they buying? what do you think they were buying? a moment of tv silence, what were they buying? the answer is the chinese were buying a blackmail file on the potential next file of the united states. they knew would run. joe biden. everybody in the media this stupid? you didn't think norah o'donnell to ask joe biden the two most important questions right now are those emails real? and are you the big guy? nobody thought to ask joe biden that. that was not an interview. it was a disgrace to journalism. i'm not kidding. brian: roll in at least tony bobulinski. penn state wrestler marine and joe biden ceo of this fund came forward and went to the fbi. jewels say didn't you meet with

him? he is saying this. what do you say? if you have the answers, you love that question. if you don't, you want is russia behind this? >> brian, the thing about bobulinski as a former law enforcement officer, you have two assets here that are just incredible. you have a background that makes him very credible in court and you have a motive for him to speak out. by the way i thought it was really bad to attack people who were in the military who was vindman. remember than 00 left. you are not allowed to attack his credibility. everything he says has to be treated lie gold. lieutenant bobulinski who was in the military open season on him it's okay because you are a leftist and have no principlesment secondly the motive to speak out here is absolutely perfect. he is apparently a guy who was in on these deals as an insider and feels like he was screwed over. that's not a bad thing. the left is pointing this out oh my gosh he may have had a bad motive and may not like hunter biden. no, once these emails with the

chinese government became public for those you not familiar with the story in the senate report. listen, that deal wasn't supposed to happen. now it looks like the bidens back doored bobulinski too and took the deal. all right, i was part of this and now i'm going to speak out. of course, the media no interest whatsoever in entertaining this story only because it makes biden not look bad but look horrendous. steve: plus, i think, dan, "60 minutes" taptiond that interview with joe biden on monday or tuesday. so the bobulinski thing hadn't happened yet but still there could have been some follow-up questions to brian's earlier point maybe it's disinformation but at the same time those his pictures? are these his emails? simple journalism. >> steve, you are a news guy. what do you do on the network you? say after you put a little sounder or something and say we reached out to the biden campaign about bobulinski which came to light afterwards and got no response. i mean. brian: or go back with cameras.

>> any fair journalist would do and they did not do that. steve: they did not. something else that happened yesterday in new york you are down in florida and got the big flotillas of trump support. there was a convoy of, i think 100 vehicles or something like that through new york. eventually some referred to this as juice fo jews for trump rallw york. there were people getting beat up there was a family pepper sprayed inside one of the vehicles in the caravan as well. what do you make of this kind of display where people are going after people who simply support a political candidate in this case the president? >> well, there is a couple things that worry me here. first, more importantly, this growing virus of anti-semitism on the radical left, steve, is deeply disturbing. and i don't know why this isn't one of those issues that is setting off alarms everywhere. i mean, think about this. if this was a sikhs for joe

why is that difficult for you to call out these antifa blm and black block thugs who were there yesterday beating the ♪ out of people. i mean it's just not right. brian: norah o'donnell never asked him was it okay to put money aside to bail out the rioters? was it okay to urge them to be bailed out for followers kamala harris and a bunch of biden staffers did exactly that. >> yeah. and then lesley stahl goes full mike tyson on donald trump comes out of the gate swinging, throwing up her cuffs and norah o'donnell gives biden a bunch of bunt questions. do you think it was russian disinformation? there is no evidence of that nor raft. what do you think joe biden is going to say no, i don't think it's russian disinformation. let me tell you the truth. i'm a chinese asset? you have to ask him hard questions. you don't give him a bunt. come on, guys. get it together in the media. isheesh.

possible as a minimal hurricane with heavy rainfall the storm surge, the potential hurricane force winds along this vulnerable coast line that has been hit so many times. it's a terrible situation. on the back side of this, we are dealing with a snow storm. annual ice storm over parts of texas and oklahoma. this is a big deal because it's so early on in the season. some of these areas getting more snow than the northeast so far this year. and we're going to be potentially seeing an ice storm tomorrow for some of these areas with measurable ice on the roads and the power lines and that's going to be a significant impact for this area. look at that. that's incredible with over a foot of snow in the higher elevations and the temperatures record cold as this front continues to sink southward. this is going to be interacting with this storm celebrat zeta wl have to reach watch all of the greendz ingredients as they come

ainsley: grim record in the coronavirus pandemic. new high of 86,000 cases in a single day. what do americans need to know. let's ask pulmonologist at nyu landon dr. ahmed. >> good morning, ainsley. ainsley: why are we seeing increases because weather is getting colder. >> highly contagious before we have symptoms. people are-moving. even much less air travel. people are going to see each other. they are having social gatherings and this is how this thing spreads. it's also very much that the climate is changing and we are worried that the fact that people will be more and more indoors as the cold comes. ainsley: what about the vaccine? this is what dr. fauci said

about it and talk about it on the other side. listen to this. >> we will know whether a vaccine is safe and effective by the end of november the beginning of december the question is once you have a safe and effective vaccine or more than one how can you get it to the people who need it as quickly as possible. ainsley: how long are we talking after we know it's safe and effective before it's distributed? >> i think actually the news on the vaccine front is very positive. it's almost certain that we are going to be vaccinating special populations before the end of 2020. that would be the military enforcement front line workers. there have already been intensive plans made by operation warp speed to get this vaccine across the country. some of the formulations need to be stored freezing temperatures for which huge production lines of especiallyized freezers in kentucky and nether lands have already been on order. there is already a military logistic operation to get it to

people. i think one thing i do want to say immediately, ainsley is because we do have cold winters in the united states, i would appeal that the government look into purifying indoor air. we have amazing technology with uv light, which can be put in a ceiling panel. since 1978 we have known that that sterilizes the air. people can have them in their homes. hospitals, universities, offices. and they kill 99.9% virus, including the covid-19 virus. this is what we are going to need as we start to roll out the vaccine which is definitely coming. news today from oxford about the astrazeneca vaccine with which the u.s. is actually studying and we have subjects in that study is that it is actually inducing immunity in the older adults and that immunity is robust. so that is extremely positive. true safety isn't really going to be known when we have tens of millions of people vaccinated

and walking around and that's going to take time all over the world. but i do think we are going to have that. and front line workers like police, like physicians, nurses, military, are going to have to be followed after the vaccine to see not just how effective it is but if there are any effects that run desirable but indoor air is something we can work on now. there are incredible american companies that make uvc devices. fortune 500 companies are installing and working with them. the nhl, starbucks, other companies are looking into this. we want to make that available for the public and schools and universities and hospitals even before the vaccine comes. ainsley: it's incredible what we know now i wanted to ask about the holidays. people need? >> physicians are extremely tired. i haven't seen my family for

almost a year now in england. i don't know when. so, air travel is actually relatively safe because the air exchanges are so frequent in an airplane and they have hepa filters. and if we wear a mask and passengers have r. spaced out that's quite a safe way to travel. it's the airport hub and then actually going from places in the country where there is more pandemic to places where there are less. 170 counties are reporting outbreaks but we are a nation of almost 3600 counties. that's a decision. if you can, it's something important. try to get tested before you see your family. ainsley: we have to leave it. >> there help you safeguard the gathering. ainsley: great to see you dr. ahmed. we have senator tom cotton at anthe top of the hour. t what's . so when a hailstorm hit, usaa reached out before he could even inspect the damage. that's how you do it right. usaa insurance is made just the way

but 74 million ballots have actually been sent out by the various states. so, the big question is. now we have already got 60 million cast. that includes walk-in to same day voting places and things like that. how many of those other votes are going to sent by the state will actually be cast. ainsley: early voting most g.o.p. voters are expected to vote on election day. but people are worried about corona. they don't want to stand in the long lines. they want to socially distance. a lot of people are often mailing in their ballots as well it. all comes down really brian to these issues. you have to look at each candidate and look at their issues and which one is better off for your family and your needs? >> yeah. that will be interesting if we could find out exactly what joe biden is going to do on those issues which is interesting. he challenged president trump to play the tape showing about fracking so, mr. president trump

shows about fracking. griff jenkins is live in washington the latest from president trump and joe biden's campaigns, griff? >> good morning, brian, ainsley and steve. you talk about the issues. every four years the candidates sit down with "60 minutes" to hit those issues. this year was no different. you had all the candidates, trump, pence, biden and harris doing so. although it took a turn when president trump cut interview short. got up and walked out because he felt he wasn't being given a fair shake moments like thrgets all these people jammed in together. and i'm seeing most of them without masks. and i'm wondering the message that you're sending with these pictures coming across the television. tell me about the mask-wearing. >> you are so negative. these are the biggest rallies we have ever had. you just come in here with that negative attitude. griff: in biden's interview we got admission. the former vp saying he is not taking this election for granted. watch. >> you have held a steady lead

in the national and state polls. but so did hillary clinton four years ago. could donald trump still win this? >> sure. i'm one of those folks, competitors, it's not over until the bell rings, and i feel superstitious which i predict anything other than going to be a hard fight. we feel good about where we are. but, you know, i don't under estimate how he plays. griff: one candidate was on the trail yesterday. president trump holding a rally in new hampshire while the other candidate not on the trail but virtually appearing in a concert both jill and joe biden doing so today. the president heads to pennsylvania making three stops two of those will be rallies. joe biden has no events listed today. but he will head to georgia tomorrow. brian, ainsley, steve? steve: all right, griff, thank you very much. let's bring in republican senator from the great state of arkansas tom cotton member of the senate intel committee. good morning to you. >> good morning.

good to be on with all of you. steve: great to have you on as well. during the "60 minutes" interview both of the questionnaires asked the candidates the most impactful foreign nation. the president said china, joe biden said russia. what did you make of those two answers? >> you know, steve, i remember back in the 2012 debates when mitt romney gave the same answer that russia was our main adversary. and he got laughed off the stage by barack obama and the democrats. barack obama even said that the 1980s called and they wanted their foreign policy back. i guess the 1980s are calling now and asking for their candidate back. although in joe biden's case it might be the 1970s that are calling and asking for their candidate back. joe biden is wrong. russia is a threat. we have to be mindful about russia. president trump has taken action to increase nato defense spending to withdraw from obsolete treaties with russia put us at disadvantage shut down consulate and send back their

spies to russia. there is no question that china is the number one threat the united states faces. they have stolen our jobs and our factories for decades. they continue to steal our property they have spies at our universities and all around the country. and, of course, their military build up is specifically designed to threaten our interest and our allies in the western pacific. joe biden the democrat only discovered their inner co-warrior because they wanted to blame hillary clinton's loss on russia, not on hillary clinton and their own campaign. ainsley: well now democrats are blaming russia for the hunter biden email scandal. they are saying it's russian disinformation. they are trying to use rudy giuliani to spread information to hurt joe biden. this is what joe biden said about his son's email leak. >> do you believe the recent leak of material allegedfully hunter's computer is part of a russian disinformation campaign? >> from what i have read and know, the intelligence community warned the president that giuliani was being fed

disinformation from the russians. and we also know that putin is trying very hard to spread disinformation about joe biden. and so when you put the combination of russia, giuliani, the president together, that's what it is, it's a smear campaign because he has nothing he wants to talk about. what is he running on? what is he running on? ainsley: senator, what do you believe is the truth here? and what evidence do you have? >> yeah. what a joke, ainsley. russian disinformation. that couldn't be more false. both words are false. they have no evidence whatsoever to suggest that these emails or documents came from russia. look, the simplest explanation for these things is usually the correct explanation. those emails came from hunter biden's laptop that he took to a computer shop in delaware and he left there second disinformation or misinformation, that implies there is false information. as far as we know, joe biden has not denied any of this. he had a chance last night on

"60 minutes" he still didn't deny it. hunter biden certainly hasn't denied it. for all your sherlock holmes fans those are the darks that didn't bark. if joe biden wasn't trading on his family's name and father's office they would simply say this is false. this is not authentic this is faith but we know hunter biden like the rest of the biden family has been trading on the biden family name and joe biden's public office for decades. brian: they don't even throw out the question. he didn't even punting on the question. he hasn't gotten the question and this stuff has been out a week already. and do you know tony bobulinski might be something else to follow up on a yes or no would tell a lot. fast forward to what's going to be happening today with amy coney barrett. if she gets confirm even lisa murkowski is going to vote for her which seems to be a given. looks like joe biden is going to you put together a commission about changing the supreme court. what do you think that commission is going to show? >> well, brian, first off, it's not if, it's when. judge barrett will be confirmed

tonight a little bit after 7:00 eastern time. look, the american people got a good look at judge barrett a couple weeks ago at their confirmation hearings. they loved what they saw and now a clear majority supports her confirmation. that's because she is a brilliant jurist. she conducted herself with grace and poise and dignity under some demanding circumstances. and she applies and interprets the law as it's written. not as she wishes it might have been written. judge barrett is going to be confirmed this evening. joe biden and the democrats are threatening to do things like pack the courts because they don't view the courts as an independent arbiter of the rule of law. they view it as another super legislature to achieve their desired outcome. some of which you saw last week during the debate like joe biden promising no strings attached amnesty in the first 100 days of his administration if he wins. or, promising to end the fossil fuel industry. those are the kind of objectives that they have and they don't want something as meddlesome as

the supreme court and the rule of law standing in their way. steve: senator, you know joe biden has been asked a number of times over the last couple of weeks do you want to pack the court and finally he gave the answer which was i'm not going to give you an answer. if i'm elected, i'm going to put together a commission and i'm going to give them 180 days, which kind of sounds like what a number of people have said over the last couple of days. joe biden is at the stage, given what he said regarding fracking and fossil fuels. he will say anything to get elected. >> yeah, steve. that's what joe biden has done throughout his career. he has really been a weather vane center mass where the democratic party is at a certain time. that's one reason why he was so weak on defense '70s or 80's. why he stood up for giant credit card companies in his home state of delaware 20 years ago. why he has moved so far to the left today. things like immediate amnesty

with no promises of enforcement in return. or, ending the fossil fuel industry. or imposing -- imposing a government healthcare plan on the american people. something that not even barack obama and 60 democratic senators thought to do 10 years ago. but that's where the left wing of the democratic party has moved and joe biden has moved with them. ainsley: senator cotton, thank you for joining us. >> thank you all. ainsley: it's 7:11 on the east coast. hand it over to jillian who has headlines. >> let's begin with this story we are following. at least six people are killed and at least 17 injured following a violent weekend in chicago. police say one of the victims is a 3-year-old girl who was shot in the wrist. a man facing a child endangerment charge. she is said to be in good condition. this year the city has seen over 2600 shootings in over 600 homicides. both are up by 53% since this time last year. president trump is planning to remove fbi director christopher

because they know there is millions of independent free-thinking black americans who are not subscribing to what joe biden and the democrat party are saying and they love what president trump has done is doing and will do through his platinum plan. brian: 50-cent made headlines last week i looked at joe biden plan lose 60% of my money. make 10 bucks give away 6. from prison multimillionaire he knows the value of the dollar and how hard he worked to get it. ice cube also weighed in. he wasn't talking about his wealth. he was talking about others in the african-american community. and he came up with a plan. he called both camps and one said if i'm elected i will call you back. and one said i got the job. why don't you come in and spend some time with jared kushner and the president seems to very many braced his plan. it's ice cube. listen to what he said to chris wallace yesterday. >> they listen, heard what i had to say. and pumped up their plan and presented to the people. i told everybody that, you know,

i'm not playing politics with this no merit who is the president. i'm going to get up and go to work in the morning. brian: he took so much backlash and took it on typical which he is known to be. so, what is the platinum plan and what do you think the administration saw in it? >> i think that what we saw with ice cube and jared kushner and the trump administration is what the trump administration has been doing and what donald trump has been doing his entire life which is reaching out, engaging with people and saying if you have a good idea to improve the lives of anyone, to make america great again for black america, white america, hispanic america, to make this country great we will listen to you. we want to do it. ice cube had his contract with black america. he reached out to both campaigns. biden said yeah we will talk about it after the election. the trump administration said let's listen. they listened for three hours and incorporated some of his ideas into the platinum plan holistic plan targeting the

black community. access to capital to the tune of $500 billion. three million new jobs. 500,000 new black owned businesses. making juneteenth a federal holiday. kkk and antifa listed as terrorist organization. it's a holistic plan looking at health and the economy and looking at jobs and safety and security. it's a positive thing that president trump has done and i'm proud about it. brian: right, you think the black vote you can get 13% this time of the black vote which is terrible but better than the 8% you had last time, right? >> senator tim scott has said 12 to 13% is game over and i believe that is to be true. when you look at the president's record. that record of accomplishment that he has done for the black community in the past he kept his promises and now he has the platinum plan for the future. we see polls showing upward support of 44% trafalgar and others. this is an election that black americans are going to win because they have a winner frump. brian: do you know who agrees

tributer and author of trump. newt gingrich. good morning, newt. >> good morning. great to be with you. those interviews whereby den twice referred to his opponent as george? brian: yes. steve: that was virtual concert. >> let me suggest to you a presidential candidate cannot remember that his opponent is donald and is somehow, i guess, flashing back to either '92 or 2000 or something thinks he is running against bushes. who know what is he is going to do with the supreme court and oil. this is a guy who is not totally there. having said that i think there were two big outcomes of that mistake. frankly good of the president to let him talk. when he let biden talk he makes mistakes. the first is in all of western pennsylvania, whether it's a

huge amount of interest in fossil fuels and energy. including the northeast part where joe biden came from this has certainly made it almost impossible for him to carry those areas. pennsylvania is going to come down to a straight up contest. county democrats steal more votes philadelphia than the rest of the state casts for trump. literally you watch on election night it's going to -- and now that the state supreme court has said you can bring ballots in six days after the election and you don't have to have a signature. i mean, they have done everything they could to set this up to steal the state and the test will be if trump beats him bad enough they won't be able to do it. now if trump doesn't beat him bad enough they might be able to find enough illegal votes and fake votes in philadelphia which historically has had a long reputation as a machine city that votes a lot of folks who may not exist. ainsley: the president has three stops and speeches in pa today

and then he is going to three different states tomorrow. michigan, wisconsin, and nebraska and then he is going back to arizona for two stops there. as well in the week. so how important is that -- so philadelphia, he has to get more votes for the outlining areas, philadelphia though, could makee or break that state? >> yeah. because historically, the polling numbers actually in the last few days biden is way under performing in philadelphia compared to hillary. he doesn't have the enthusiasm in the black community. he is not -- the philadelphia machine stunningly corrupt capable of manufacturing votes. i think what will happen on election night. if trump comes in strong enough and if trump is winning elsewhere, then it's all going to collapse because they are not going to risk going to jail. if they think it's close enough they can steal it, they will manufacture as many votes as they need to try to steal the

state. and i think that's really what it is about now. i think with this major mistake about natural gas and oil and coal and not just in pennsylvania but in new mexico, in ohio, texas, i mean, north dakota. i think biden hurt himself and he also hurt himself because he now has to go back and explain it and reexplain it just reminds you he is totally untrustworthy. brian: you wrote a column and talked about three things president trump should emphasize. one thing that struck me over the weekend he is having a great time. is he doing multiple events third event. is he more into the last one than the first one. meanwhile if he was to streamline that conversation, what should be the focus? very simple win the argument what we have done on covid has worked. spain went to emergency shutdown until next april. brian: italy too. >> italy announced no

restaurants. i think one is covid. trump has done a much better job than these other countries. two is the economy. trump represents a recovery, biden represents a depression. and three is the shear overt corruption of the biden family, particularly with relationship to china, russia and ukraine. those are the three issues that trump has to win. if he wins those, he will win a surprisingly big re-election. steve: his rallies are wide ranging so i would look to him to talk about all that stuff and so much more. newt gingrich, former speaker of the house. author of the new book "trump and the american future." great to see you from the d.c. area today good to have you. coming up there was a rally referred to as a jews for trump rally motorcade. it turned into chaos. protesters throwing rocks and eggs at the caravan right here in new york city. ben shapiro is going to sound off on this and you will hear him coming up next.

continues to welcome and champion rasheda tlaib and ilhan omar anti-semites if this were a jews for biden and trump supporters were labeling how long would it take the media to label them anti-semites. ainsley: what if president trump does win? what happens in all these cities? >> i think the cities burn. things get extremely rough if president trump wins. they have made that fairly clear. joe biden himself has suggested that the only way to bring some sort of end to the conflict in the cities is for him to be elected president of the united states. it's been sort of a tacit blackmail enacted everybody knows, trump supporters and biden supporters their belief is everything calms down. the other side of that is things that absolutely do not calm down if trump is elected. talking about blue areas where trump is not going to be voted for. massive unrest if trump wins. brian: all right. so 100 percent right they got a total pass on that and reason

why most police agencies, precincts are endorsing the president. meanwhile, i always say to myself before i make any major decision what would celebrities do. again, i find myself doing that again today. so i cued up this tape and i'm just going to take notes. let's lynch. >> vice president biden and senator harris are the best choice to lead our country and i am endorsing them to become president and vice president of our united states. >> and joe biden and kamala harris will help us finally bring america together. >> these days it's always red state, blue state, the me state, you state. i think that joe biden believes in the united states. >> you're that role model for so many young women. >> i have known joe since 2006 and i know what kind of amazing person he is. >> i'm voting for joe biden. i like joe. brian: so mel brooks, too. does this remind you before you comment, ben.

remember, hillary clinton, i kept this on my vcr. >> i want my daughter grow up seeing a woman lead our country and that is why i'm with her. >> i'm with her. i have to say i'm with her. >> go out and vote for hillary clinton. >> i'm with her. >> i'm with her. >> i'm with her because she is the most qualified person to hear all of our needs. >> i would like to introduce to you the next president of the united states is hillary clinton. >> so that didn't work out too well. what about now, ben? have we changed? do we like celebrities more now? >> celebrities will save us when i'm looking for place i go to the home of high level drug use, divorce and virtually every other sin that's where i tend to look is to the celebrity class. these are definitely our intellectual superiors people who should be advising us on virtue and the way forward for the republic. these are all the folks that have traditionally relied upon

for all life advice certainly i care how they want me to vote. brian: i have listened to your show. i don't think you are telling the truth. steve: probably not. ben, speaking of holiday. a couple months ago you decided you know what? i have had it up to here with california and terrible governance and how with a business like yours is regulated to death. have you since relocated to nashville, tennessee. the first time have you been on our show from your nashville studios. bring us up to date. what sort of fallout was there from you announcing you were going to move and now that you are there, how do you like it? >> i mean, there is a lot of will fuss. my entire family moved to south florida small contingent. we have a couple of different spots we moved to red states or purple states because california is a trash heap. i lived my entire life in california literally all of it until the last three months. the reason we moved because of bad governance. the weather in california is really nice. then it turns out if you raise the taxes to a point where

nobody wants to do business, create a regulatory scheme where businesses are basically on the edge all the time. when you regulate everybody down to the point where you can't run your business and you are supposed to subject yourself to these extraordinarily high taxes for zero public supervisors, everybody is going to leave. that's what you are see something a mass rush for the exits in california. i mean, the local problems in l.a. are extreme crime is rising, low level crime particularly. homelessness is all time high. some 65,000 homeless people living in l.a. county. eventually businesses are going to say okay i'm paying all these tax dollars and no public services we are out. so not only did we leave. we told all of our employees they could come with us. nearly all of them said we can't wait to get the hell out of here. we are pretty excited about it. i will say that for businesses, red states greater than blue states no question. brian: everything still closed. >> that's still a problem. california incredibly locked down not true in nashville or south florida. it turns out if you want to run

a business and live your life you can't live in a heavy blue state where all of the incentives, politically speaking or are for the government to lock everything everything down and blame trump. ainsley: praised the narrow for slashing the budget. nora asked her about her progressive socialist stance and policies and the way she has voted in the past. watch this. >> what i will do and i promise you, this and this is what joe wants me to do, this was part of our deal. i will always share with him my lived experience as it relates to any issue that we confront. and i promised joe that i will give him that perspective and always be honest with him. >> and is that a socialist or progressive perspective? [laughter] >> no. no. it is the perspective of a woman who grew up a black child in america, who was also a prosecutor, who also has a mother who arrived here at the

age of 19 from india. who also likes hip hop. what do you want to know? [laughter] ainsley: she really didn't answer. she went into her background instead of talking about looking at your voting record. i was glad nora pressed her on it. she said that she was talking about how she has been labeled as the most liberal senator and she said well, that's not true. pension has actually said that on stage and nora said the nonpartisan gov track called you the most liberal senator when you look at your voting record. >> i don't know about you. i found you will all of that historical. i would love to play poker can kamala harris because she has the most obvious tell in the history of politics physical she is asked a question she doesn't want to answer she breaks into joker laugh. nothing funny about that question she broke into that laugh again. that is the most obvious tell i have ever seen in american politics. it's pretty amazing. yes.

kamala harris is, in fact, the most liberal senate in the united states senate bipartisan sources the fact that she wasn't prepared for that question demonstrates how easily the media have treated the biden harris campaign so far. is that true most obvious question to ask kamala harris you are a wild evidentist and have been your entire career how do you think people are going to govern if you are elevated to the presidency since joe biden seems to be on his last leg there is very little doubt is he not going to serve a full 8 years at the very least. she didn't have an answer for that again when you believe you are guarded by the guard of the media and never have to answer a single serious question, you can just go into the crazy rauf and hope nobody asks you a follow up. brian: one thing i have never seen is one side just not do almost anything and the other side do everything. ben, thanks so much. look forward to your podcast and your radio show later today. >> thanks. brian: mean while, let's go over to janice. she has promised to track the storms. hey, janice. janice: yeah, unfortunately. we have another hurricane that is going to threaten the louisiana coast line on

wednesday. it is strengthening, we think by the 8:00 a.m. advisory we could have something very close to a hurricane. it goes over the yucatan peninsula. and then into louisiana we think on wednesday afternoon. wednesday evening. so, there is the latest track. we will get new information in just a matter of moments. 8:00 a.m. is when they release the new information including a new track. so we will bring you the very latest. it looks like coastal louisiana, again, this will be the fifth storm that moves into this storm weary state. that is the worst news, unfortunately, and it's going to bring the potential for heavy rain and storm surge and the at least tropical storm force winds along the coast. anywhere from texas to louisiana. mississippi, alabama, even the florida panhandle needs to keep a close eye on this system. it's going to interact with this system behind it that's bringing an ice storm and heavy snow to parts of the southwest into towards the southern plains. look at this. this is potentially, you know, thick ice on some of the

roadways and the power lines and the bridges, so that's a big concern over the next tuesday and wednesday next couple of days behind that. we have red flag conditions. and santa ana winds across california and these winds are going to be so strong they could knock trees down and power lines. this is another big situation the wildfire danger across the west. so, all of those things we are watching. the winter storage across the southern plains and the southwest. the red flag conditions and tropical storm zeta is going to move wednesday into thursday and across the southeast as well. lots to track in the weather department. we will give you up to date steve, ainsley and brian back to you. ainsley: busy time for everyone. as the senate prepares to vote on judge amy coney barrett tonight, a group of republican attorneys general are making the case to get her confirmed. the arkansas attorney general is one of them and she is going to join us live next.

>> the senate today will confirm amy coney barrett to the supreme court marking what would be president trump's third appointment there.

our next guest is one of a number republican attorney general's coming out in support of judge barrett in a brand new video. here to make her case arkansas attorney general leslie rutledge. leslie, good morning to you. >> good morning, steve. steve: why did you guys want to put together this video? >> i think it's important for americans to hear from the chief legal officers from across the country how qualified judge barrett is and that it's time for the senate to fill the seat. today is important day in american history. it's an important day to get that seat filled, again, with someone with exempt larry legal qualifications. steve: you know, but attorney general all we have heard about for the most part are the politics of it. you know, the republicans they shouldn't be doing this rather than hearing about her qualifications because it's a math thing. and the republicans have enough numbers to put her on the supreme court what is it about the fact it's become so political. >> it's a shame it's become so political.

because no one is more qualified than judge amy coney barrett to be on the supreme court. and we saw that during the hearings as she held up that blank piece of paper. she knew the law. she knew where she stood on issues. and she also followed the ruth bader ginsburg rule with no preview. that's such a shame that democrats want to criticize her nomination rather than recognizing her as one of the most if not the most qualified individual to sit on the supreme court of the united states. steve: do you know what? it sounds as if the voting will start about 7:26 this evening. people will see it right here on fox. but, it does not sound that there will be a single democrat who will vote for her. and that is something we have never seen in our lifetime. >> it's a shame that the democrats again have politicized the demonstration of a qualified judge to the supreme court. this is about having three branches of government. rather than recognizing judge barrett for her qualifications, they are, instead, wanting to make a political issue of it.

so i ask that democrats reach across the aisle and recognize that this woman is qualified to sit on the united states supreme court. that's one of the attorneys general across the country join together to ask the senate to do just that tonight. steve: all right. and it looks as if they will unless something crazy happenings. leslie rutledge, the attorney general for arkansas. leslie, thank you very much. >> thank you, steve. have a great day. steve: you as well. all right, still ahead. look at the lineup. we have jared kushner from the white house. senator ted cruz. maria bartiromo and jocko is going to be with us next hour "fox & friends." the men and woman of the united states postal service. we are here to deliver your cards, packages and prescriptions. and also deliver the peace of mind knowing that what's important to you-like your ballot-is on its way. every day, all across america, we deliver for you.

competitors it's not over till the bell rings. we feel good about where we are. i don't underestimate how he plays. >> griff: today the president heads to battleground of pennsylvania. steve, ainsley, brian. ainsley: thank you so much, griff. jared kushner, senior adviser and son-in-law. good to have you here. joe biden last night said donald trump is going to be hard fight. what is on top of the president's agenda, is it the economy or law and order? >> i think it's a bunch of things. president trump is basically saying that the economy is really starting to rebound very, very strong. we will have the gdp number out shortly which would be great number. we are seeing the job claims go down and jobs coming down.

i do think president trump built the greatest economy and he can do it again. we are making great progress with therapeutics and hopefully that will allow us to get back and still countries are still dealing with this and further allow us to further strengthen the position in the world. brian: you mentioned therapies vaccines. one thing that mark meadows says we will not control the pandemic but control the fact that we will give vaccines, therapeutics, what did he mean by that? how does that fit into policy? >> right, you have a global pandemic. it's impacting every place. people have tried different ways to cope with it. you have that throughout europe, you have through the u.s. and places where they have been locked down and places where it's been open and it's spread and ultimately we have to have balanced approach and the federal government is to make

sure that we get supplies to people that need it. you heard hysteria stories about not having enough ventilators or times and time and time again that never fulfilled itself. the federal government did its job, joint chiefs of staff and military admirals to do that and also with vaccines, fastest vaccine was 13 months. we did one in 4 months and 4 months and one week, we have a lot of vaccines that are close to getting to the end of the trials and hopefully proven safety that we hope will bring an end to the pandemic. look, i think when you saw the debate, the other side it's going to be a dark winter. we definitely have some challenges but president trump approach is we will defeat the virus and we will get our country back to stronger place than ever before. >> steve: as you know, the virus is still very much alive in the west wing. in the vice president's office at least 5 people close to the vice president including chief of staff marc short and campaign

adviser martdy have tested positive. he's been cleared by doctors and same protocol for essential workers and at the same time you have democrats saying, hey, that's just not safe. >> you have people who can criticize in every regard and i spoke to marc short and he's feeling fine. you have a lot of young, healthy people in the wing knowing they are taking risks working for the american people and because there's a pandemic doesn't mean that we can't stop. people do get it and obviously once that happens, you have to make sure that, you know, you get the right care and you're taking care of yourself but for

the people in the west wing who has gotten it so far, it's benign cases and people are moving forward and the vice president obviously has gained knowledge about i believe he's following protocols. ainsley: your father announced peace deal israel and sedan on friday, what are the countries and what can we expect in the future? >> on friday we announced historic peace agreement between israel and sedan, that's significant. third-peace agreement that we have been able to announce in the last couple of months. i will say people being in washington 30, 40 years, never able to work out a single foreign transaction and we achieved 3 peace deals. peace deals are much harder than president trump is making them look before. sedan was in a state of war with israel and the significance of this agreement, i can't overstate enough. in 1967 after the 6-day war they

had famous no peace, no recognition, no negotiations. obviously on friday we announced the 3 yes', third peace deal. it's a breakthrough for the region and i do think you will continue to see progress. i will say again, people have been critical of the president over the last 3 years for whatever he does, he had two scoops of ice cream, he took a different approach in the middle east and he put up results, again, you can't argue with the results he's achieved. the historic peace deal is something that will make the world safer and america safer and allows us to bring troops home and have less threats for radical islamic terror and other -- and other threats to our shores. brian: yeah, it's going to take to give full credit and the administration and for you specifically for that because it's phenomena what is going on out. peace is going on and no one is

paying attention. ice cube come out and he got blowback with you, i have platinum plan. you said i'd like to hear about it, let's meet. you met according to reports for about 3 hours and you kind of endorsed it and the president talked in september. here is what ice cube said to chris wallace and i want you to get you to comment. >> they listened, heard what i had to say and pumped up their plan and presented to the people on september i believe 24th. i told everybody that, you know, i'm not playing politics with this. i'm willing to meet with anybody who could bring this to -- to life and make it a reality. brian: so jared, you realized this isn't a celebrity coming forward and there's substance to it, why did you go forward with it, why did the president go forward it? >> there's been discussion about the issues that were needed in the black community for the last years but particularly intensified after the george

floyd situation and, you know, you saw a lot of people who were virtual signaling, they would go on instagram and cry or slogan on their jersey and quite frankly that was doing more to polarize than doing something forward. you saw problems with solutions. one thing i respected with ice cube, what are policies that are needed to solve the problem that everyone supporting. we got together, we were able to take through president trump's accomplishments, criminal justice reform and we took him through a lot of the different plans to what president trump could do in the next 4 years and i'm a big believer in iron on iron, there were a lot of things we did agree on. i think he helped make our plan better and we appreciated it.

again, one thing that we have seen in a lot of the black community which is mostly democrat is that president trump's policies are the policies that can help people break out of the problems that they're complaining about but he can't want them to be successful more than that they want to be successful and what you're seeing ground-swell support in the community because they are realizing all the different bad things media said about president trump is not true. he's actually delivered and a lot of people want to get on board to start working with president trump because they know unlike most politicians who have been in washington for decades and talk and say the right things, president trump may not always say the right things but he does the right things. he says what's on his mind and he gets results and so people want results, they are tired of politicians who are promising things and not delivering. >> well, he does say what's on his mind. he's really good at that. jared, i'm sure you saw the 60 minutes interview.

one of the things that o'donnell asked, you're ahead in the polls and so was hillary clinton back in 2016, could donald trump still win and joe biden said, absolutely. yes, he could. the people we talked to at the white house also seem confident that things are -- are going your way. nobody knows the data and the polling better than you. what are you seeing that makes you competent -- we see the rallies and we see the enthusiasm but you see the numbers. >> look, again, i speak to all state directors. we have big data modeling, i do believe that polling with phones is an area of method especially in canceled culture. you have been salesmen that have been in the business for a long time and they were completely wrong the last time and they didn't make any modifications going forward and what state directors are telling us they are more confident where they

are now than last time. we are seeing enthusiasm for president trump. people like that he's the first outsider president and standing up against washington and fighting for them and keeping promises. we are seeing that at the president's rallies right now. 20 to 30% of the people showing up didn't vote in 2016 and the grassroots operation that we have is incredible. if you think about what we have over 2 and a half million volunteers, 2,000 staff, we are doing a ton of digital advertising with the right message. possibly one of the biggest campaigns ever built in history and design today help turn out the vote. you can't have 2 and a half million volunteers, people who are working very hard if you don't have the candidate that they believe in and quite frankly no energy that we are seeing on the other side, no organization that we are seeing on the other side and i do think that people on the state feel that we are tracking in critical swing states. we remain cautiously optimistic

and you don't do very well betting against trump and people have learned that over the last years. ainsley: in new york city people were throwing rocks and eggs and someone said they were pepper sprayed when they were in there car in this rally for president trump. it was identified as jews for jesus and -- steve: jews for trump. ainsley: i'm sorry, jews for trump and rudy giuliani was in another caravan going in front of trump tower and they were yelling really nasty horrible things and he was trying to get police officers to come over and help. but if the shoe were on the other foot, if these were trumpers that were throwing rocks at jews for biden, this would be all over the press. >> yeah, look, my favorite answer the president gave last night on 60 minutes was when she asked president trump to define his supporters and he said that there are people who love this country and the reality is that trump supporters are people that have a lot of spirit, a lot of

love. the media tries to degrade him. his opponents call them all kinds of names but the truth is that these are people who work hard, who want to do good things and they have a lot of spirit but they're not out there causing the violence and being disrespectful in ways, they are not canceling opponents and they are not creating violence in the way that others do and i think it's absolutely disgusting and i really hope that joe biden's campaign will condemn antisemitic actions that were taken against trump supporters and be respectful. any time that something happens, i think the media should denounce and respectful thing to do. brian: they have to find them first. puts the lid very early. jared kushner, thank you so much. >> thank you, great to be with you. brian: best luck the rest of the way. the senate is hours away from a vote of judge amy coney barrett after democrats fail today stop the confirmation process. senator ted cruz says he's looking forward for voting for

barrett will become justice amy coney barrett and this is a historic victory. this may be the most important decision president trump has made in 4 years in office and it's a culmination of promises made to the american people and promises to nominate strong constitutionalists, justices who will defend the constitution and defend the bill of rights, defend our fundamental liberties and i have to say during confirmation hearing i think judge barrett did a phenomenal job. america was blown away watching her, watching her sit her sit without a single note and watching her take incoming fire and respond with a smile and respond with substance and respond with failfullness and that's what we want and expect from supreme court justices. steve: usually, historically over the last 50 years or something like that. when ruth bader ginsburg was

confirmed, 97 to 98 to nothing. amazing because it's bipartisan. it's the court and it's supposed to be nonpolitical but tonight not a single one of your democratic colleagues is expected to vote for her. >> yeah, no, it's really sad and you're right, justice ginsburg was confirmed overwhelmingly and so was justice scalia for whom judge barrett clerked. justice scalia in 1986, he sailed through confirmation hearing, first italian-american justice to serve on the court and it's really great if you look at the video, he sits there smoking a pipe during his hearing, sitting there at the witness table, he has a pipe going. my advice to judge barrett, judge, you will do great but don't follow your own boss' example and probably don't smoke a pipe and she listen today that advice and blew it out of the water. democrats right now, they don't care about the substance. every one of them will agree

she's qualified, she's impressive and she's serious but -- but this is a shirts and skin exercise. this is a partisan battle and part of the problem is that for the left, they've decided the court is the key to their radical agenda, so when it comes to really just liberty, they want to strip away your right to practice your faith. they want the government to be able to control it. the key to do that is getting justices on the courts. when it comes to guns, they want to strip away, they want to takeaway your second amendment right to keep and bear arms. the key to doing that is the court. each of these rights, their view is this is about power and it's why they are so incredibly upset. they didn't talk about taking away free speech rights. they want unelected justices to

force through, policies that people don't want. i think it's unfortunate that one of our two parties, the democratic party has radicalized view of confirmations. it's turned them into the slug fests, circuses that we see so regularly. steve: what the democrats did they got big blow-up images of people that would be impacted if the affordable care act went away. that may be true. they would be greatly impact but there is no -- you look at her record. the part of the affordable care act that the supreme court will look at shortly, she probably wouldn't go along with that anyway. >> what the democrats didn't want to do on health care, obamacare, is discuss what a disaster obamacare has been. how many millions of people have lost under obamacare, how many have seen health care skyrocket under obamacare? joe biden looked at the american

people and lied, nobody lost their health care under obamacare. if you remember when barack obama said, if you want your health care, you can keep your health care, the lie of the year while joe biden just reuped the lie of the year, but the critical thing, steve on this, if you want to have a policy debate on health care and i'm eager to have policy debate on how to protect preexisting conditions and lower premiums and have more competition and more options, the right place to do that is the senate. right place to do is the elected legislature. it's not the courts and it speaks volumes. as you and i have talked about, my new book, one vote away, third week in the row in new york times best seller drives them crazy to keep putting it up there and i have to say, steve, by the way, you're in my book, was released in the same time and we have been at the top of the charts for several weeks ago, congratulations on that.

the arson suspect outside of the boston public library, the feds say 35 of the 122 ballots inside were damaged. the city says anyone who used that box between saturday afternoon and sunday morning can request a new ballot or vote in person. those are your headlines, let's head back to you. brian: let's bring in maria bartiromo, anchors of mornings with maria and fox business, you know, you also know this that if you watched the special it's one day away, the election is 8 days away but the cost is out tomorrow. maria, very few people in the country know about economic and business news than you, what sold you on the trump principles and trump economy? maria: well, thank you so much, you guys, great to see you. i'm so happy that you have the book. james and i had such a great time writing the book. i think what sold me, really, is to look at the economy and the focus on jobs and on people.

a lot of times people have ideologies, well, we want to make sure that we are giving money to bottom earners, the ideologies of what creates economic growth. what president trump did is he looked at how to actually get money to the lowest earners and that was through tax cuts and deregulation and opening on energy and what happened was before covid showed up we actually did see income inequality narrowing for the first time in decades, why, because earnings from the bottom were going up faster and higher than earnings on the top. so it's really just a different approach. it's the approach on -- on the president's side of saying, let's make the individual empowered, let's ensure that the individual has an opportunity to work and make as much money as possible whereas on the other side let's empower federal governments to give out handouts

and make sure that we are giving out to lower earners. clearly president trump's ways have worked and that's why we see such a job's boom in 2019 and certainly early 2020. steve: sure. from 2020 to 60 minutes let's talk a little bit about -- a portion of the interview where lesley stahl asked the president about as he looks around the world who should we worry about, here is what the president said. >> and who is our biggest foreign adversary? >> i would say china. they're an adversary, competitor, they are a foe in many ways but they are an adversary. i think what happened was disgraceful. it should never have happened, they should have never allowed the plague to get out of china and two throughout the world, 188 countries. it should never have happened. steve: maria, what's interesting

about that if you go back a couple of years ago the president was hopeful about his relationship with the president of china that we would be able to get a great trade deal, good for both countries but now fast-forward to today and given everything that's happened, that's our number 1 adversary. maria: well, it has been our number 1 adversary, not just trump was hopeful but the world was hopeful. steve, the bottom line is we have been trying to open up china over 40 years ever since president nixon went to china and what we were expecting that the chinese leadership was, well, look, democracy is working here. freedom and independence is working here, let's move a little to the movie but what has happened is the opposite. the chinese communist party has become more inward and they are making no secrets of the fact that they want to put china back on top as the number 1 super power in the world. interestingly throughout the whole russia collusion nonsense and the made-up story that he colluded with -- with russia in

2016, 2017, 2018, while the media was going nuts talking about russia, the president was zeroing in on this competitor, on china. he -- he hosted china's leader xi jinping 3 months into his new administration. that's how we begin the book. in fact, we begin the book with the dinner at mar-a-lago when they are chatting or having chocolate cake for desert and during the chocolate cake president trump makes stun ago nounsment, just so you know 59 strikes are on their way to syria because the head of syria used chemical agents against its people. so he's there talking about the most beautiful chocolate cake and yet he's delivering a stern message. the president saw china and the communist party for who it is. they are not going to do it through innovation like america does it, they are doing it through theft. that's why we have seen a string

of indictments this year, academics from the head of the chemistry department at harvard who was getting paid by the ccp all the way to the embassy that was just shut down in houston. the chinese communist party has been able to identify insiders to get data and send it back. we have two chapters on china and the threat that it faces in the book because the president not only came out and looked at the economy and tried to come up with policies that would move the needle on economic growth, he was facing the most resistance that any president has ever faced from within, from the deep state from the media and, of course, the bigger challenge, the bigger threat was china and what the chinese communist party was trying to do. i would say many people, most people in the world want america to be the most dominant country with our democracy, our freedom and independents -- independence and liberties and not china giving you a social score at the end of the year. ainsley: you talked about it in

your book the media coverage of the president, watch this, maria, we will get your reaction. >> the crazy thing about the president is that if he actually adopted some of the basic health measures that -- that are working ever in the world rather than spurning them as politically incorrect, they would actually enhance the economy. >> the irony here is the most straightforward path that president trump had reelection was to do a good job battling the coronavirus and more broadly to do a good job as president but he's not capable of that obviously. >> you can't tell people who are living in this country with this pandemic that things are going well because everybody is living it and everybody knows that it's not. ainsley: maria, does it help or does it hurt him? maria: look, i think it helps him frankly, ainsley, because i think what you're seeing is a

constant nonstop criticism of this president by the media and they are having a very hard time getting out of their own ideology, they refuse to cite in any way, shape or form any of his successes and that includes moving the needle on economic growth, the greatest jobs market that we have seen arguably in our history, foreign policy arguably more dynamic than economic policy creating the beginnings of middle eastern peace, you know, obviously poking back on china, killing solemani and the head of isis. all of these things are not talked at all in the press and by the way for 2, 3 years we heard the same hosts talking about president trump colluding with russia after we heard from the if report, michael horowitz, mueller report, robert mueller, senate intel investigation, i mean, investigations have found

no collusion whatsoever between trump, anybody in his campaign and russia and yet there have been no mia culpas. they have gotten pulitzer prizes for the reporting even if the dossier story was fall ago part in front of their eyes. so when you take a look at what president trump has done in the face of coronavirus, he stopped all travel on january 31st, that was a huge move. joe biden called that xenophobic and around at the same time they were impeaching him. they were doing an impeachment trial. they were not talking about coronavirus. nancy pelosi was dancing in chinatown in san francisco and the fbi was sitting on critical documents about hunter biden, about ukraine that he was doing business deals there and they didn't even bring it forth even as they were impeaching president trump. so i think that there's a lot of honesty that still needs to come out about this whole legacy of trump. brian: the name of the book is the cost, trump, china and

outlines strategist, decorated veteran jacko, before we get your book, congratulations and your podcast. if you're a police officer, get me into the mind set of what's coming to him or her way in the next coming days? >> respect to law enforcement officers and it's hardest job in the world, i've done ride-alongs with police officers, it's a hard job. you're facing what can potentially be a riot scenario, mob rule and that's what police do, they prepare for these things and the thing that's scariest about when a mob gets going like this. in a mob what it does it removes -- brian: i know. >> they feel they are not responsible for what they're doing and they go out and commit

horrible acts. the police are planning for or preparing for and at the end of the day, there's one more step that needs to be taken. when you're dealing with the mob, what you have to do is separate those people. you to view them as human beings, you know, and try and break them away from the mob so that they don't act with the mob. brian: tried not to get sued. we will have you back with a longer segment. you give us principles of living your life, one of the things that step out, step aggressive towards your fear, emigres setbacks failures and defeats and fight the feeling of not feeling it. can you stop you there, stop the feeling of not feeling it? >> common excuses you can hear from people which is i'm just not really feeling it, brian. you have to fight against it. you have to do what you're supposed to the regardless of how you feel. brian: you say use extreme caution with firearms, obviously, and embrace setbacks

failures and defeats, really embrace them? >> yeah, now you've actually learned something. you've made an attempt to do something, you failed, okay, what have you learned, how can you attack it differently the next time so you can be successful. brian: right. regret is worthless, real quick. >> look, regret doesn't do you any good, looking back and saying, i wish i would have done something differently doesn't help you, what you need to do is moving forward. brian: the book is out, discipline equals freedom, field manuel, thanks very much, jocko, appreciate it. i'm still clear, five years now. cosentyx works fast to give you clear skin that can last. real people with psoriasis look and feel better with cosentyx. don't use if you're allergic to cosentyx. before starting, get checked for tuberculosis. an increased risk of infections and lowered ability to fight them may occur.
