if you want to come and the real reason people can't to come. jasper will be there. jasper is the dog in case you didn't know. >> bill: serious stuff today. we'll get back tomorrow. >> dana: good to be with you. we'll turn it over to harris faulkner for "the faulkner focus". here she is. >> harris: we begin with this fox news alert. president biden is drawing some heat for praising protestors as he seeks to make political capital on the guilty verdict in the derek chauvin trial as the justice department has now launched an investigation into the minneapolis police department. i'm harris faulkner. derek chauvin found guilty yesterday of murder with the death of george floyd. president biden faced criticism prior to the decision even for weighing in on the case and then late last night the president praised protestors

who took to the streets after george floyd's death last may while ignoring the deadly violence including rioting, looting, arson and killings that shattered many cities. >> president biden: the murder of george floyd launched a summer of protest we hadn't seen since the civil rights era in the 60s. protests that unified people of every race and generation with peace and with purpose to say enough, enough, enough of this senseless killing. today -- today's verdict is a step forward. >> harris: more than 140 american cities saw violence in the three weeks following george floyd's death. the overall cost hit more than $1 billion with some estimates as high as $2 billion. many businesses as you know, we watched it all.

many of those business owners lost everything. kristin fisher is live at the white house. kristin. >> let's start with this big news from attorney general merrick garland who announced a sweeping investigation into the minneapolis police department. now remember the justice department was already investigating the officers involved in george floyd's death to see if they had violated his civil rights but now what this new announcement is going to do is expand to the entire police department to see if it is taking part in a pattern of unconstitutional or unlawful policing. here is the attorney general about an hour ago. >> the investigation i am announcing today will assess whether the minneapolis police department engages in a pattern or practice of using excessive force, including during protests. the investigation will also assess whether the mpd engages in discriminatory conduct and

whether its treatment of those with behavioral and health disabilities is unlawful. >> this comes less than 24 hours after president biden's remarks saying the verdict is a step forward but still much more work to do to reform this system and he had this message for what he describes as the agitators and extremists, listen here. >> president biden: agitators and extremists who have no interest in social justice, who seek to carry out violence, destroy property, fan the flames of hate and division will do everything in their power to stop this country's march toward racial justice. we can't let them succeed. >> so now the attention turns to capitol hill where democrats are trying to pass the george floyd justice and policing act which would ban choke holds and end qualified immunity for police officers. it has already passed the house. now stuck in the senate. the president says he will not rest until it is on his desk but harris, as of right now it

does not appear as though democrats have the 10 republicans needed to get it through the senate. harris. >> harris: thank you very much. i want to go to new video now which shows black lives matter protestors harassing diners in new york city last night saying, quote, the white-owned establishment was not welcome. watch. >> get out of new york. >> we don't want you here. we don't want you here. we don't want you here. we don't want your money. >> harris: jason nichols, university of merchandise professor of from time to time studies. great to see you doctor. t.w. i will come to you first on this. the justice that people said that they were in the streets for. many said oh, justice was

served yesterday. so why are they in the streets harassing people who are not of color at restaurants saying get out? why is that even happening? what does it have to do with the death of george floyd? >> i think part of it, harris, if we're honest, many of the leaders on the left have asked them to do it. we have leaders like maxine waters who is calling for more violence in the street. there is no interest, really, in healing this country that joe biden talks so much about. we see more of more of this false narrative there is a systemic police racism problem in america. the reality is it's not. statistics don't bear that out. when we looked at what happened with the george floyd case, his murder and death. it was a crime, we all witnessed it. putting your knee on a person's neck for nine minutes is wrong. the system worked and the guy has been tried and convicted and sentenced. the reality is this. in america it is still a land of opportunity. not a place of systemic racism.

unfortunately we have race baiters out there who will continue to churn that wheel and to tell that story. it is done at the peril of law enforcement as well as minority communities. >> harris: jason, would you describe what these people were doing at this restaurant last night any other way than harassment and badgering? >> i would describe it as an isolated incident. i would describe it as something that's not going on around the country. we had to go and pick one incident at one restaurant in one city of a country that has 300 million people. so i actually don't think this is some sort of major deal. i think it was unfortunate particularly if the diners didn't have the experience that they were looking for that night. but at the same time, i think this is an isolated incident. >> harris: let me step in one second. i want to know if you can actually see the video. this is important to say. you are saying it's an isolated incident. what i don't want you to miss is how many people have come up

to the isolated incident and are cheering and part of what is going on. and clapping. look at it. it isn't just this one person on that band stand thing that he or she is standing on but it is all those behind that person. and so you can say well it didn't play all over the country but all over the street. if you are those diners and you know what's happened when black lives matter protestors have shown up at people's homes, you know what has happened in those instances. people feel fear. you don't think the people in the restaurant legitimately are concerned? >> sure, i think the 20 people who were there were pretty disturbed and i'm sure they had a bad experience and i wish they had a better experience dining that evening. but i don't think that this is something that we should blow out of proportion. this is not something that happened nationwide. this is not something where people were hurt.

this was not something where hundreds and hundreds of people were harmed. it was an unfortunate evening for some diners. i've been in situations where i've been dining and i've seen things happen that i didn't particularly like. but -- >> harris: you have been harassed like that when you were dining? >> sure. absolutely. protests, i've seen people walking by and screaming things and seen upheaval but that's one restaurant. if you can show me this going on around the country, if it's 20 cities. >> harris: i don't want to encourage it. i'm not congresswoman maxine waters and walk outside and tell people to intentionally get confrontational. i'm not going to do that. if you ask me to do that on air not going to happen. >> i can't let that slide. this is not an isolated incident. conservatives have been under siege for the last probably 10 years if truth be told. we see it happening in people's

homes. we see it happening on university campuses. conservatives have been under siege from the left for a long time. black lives matter have profited off of dead black men who have died as a result of many other crimes that have been committed. the idea this is isolated is not. it is happening all over the country. there are stories. you can look at any news story that happens around the country every single night. there is a story about a conservative who has been disenfranchised. conservatives are under siege. one of many examples. we have people on the left who try to act as if this is an isolated incident. it is not. it is happening and i can tell you i have friends who have experienced it. i've experienced it. it is happening on airplanes and unfortunately no one from the left is standing up and it needs to stom. >> harris: that's where i've seen it. very tight corners and not

always a camera. we need to move to this. i mentioned congresswoman maxine waters and now she is lashing out at her critics after democrats blocked a republican effort to censure her over her call for protestors to get more confrontational if the jury in the derek chauvin case acquitted him. let's watch. >> the republicans love to use me as a target. they raise money on their backs. maxine waters, that black woman who is so uppity and who is someone we can't control and so you've got to make sure that i have enough money to keep her from getting reelected. >> harris: this morning house minority leader kevin mccarthy fired back. >> the censure resolution only quoted the judge. no politics involved. this wasn't a political situation. this was an opportunity to bring the nation toefmgt it was an opportunity to call what was right and what was wrong. to help us heal and make sure

the system works and continues to work for all americans. >> harris: jason. >> well, i'll tell you this, i've been to a lot of protests. never been to a violent one but for the violent ones i saw on television, i never saw anyone with a maxine waters flag. i certainly have seen other flags at violent riots and protests and insurrections but i've never seen anyone who was inspired by maxine waters. i think maxine waters is one congresswoman who the right again uses as kind of their scare tactic in order to get people riled up. maxine waters does not inspire a whole lot of people. maxine waters is one congresswoman and it's unfortunate that she said something about confrontation. i don't think she meant violence. she said that she was non-violent. >> harris: how would you know

what she meant? she said stay in the streets and be more confrontational. how would you know what she meant? you said yourself you weren't there and haven't been to something like that. you didn't see. i don't know that she has flags. i don't even know why that's part of the conversation. but what she did have was what she did have was the floor at that moment, right? she took in a police escort and then stirred up trouble. and i will go to t.w. for his quick response before i have to go. >> maxine waters is one of the most powerful women in congress. the fact that she has consistently called for violence not only is it dangerous and reckless, it is a stain on americanism. because this woman has continued to call for violence against our police. called for violence against conservatives. anyone who supported donald trump. she is unhinged and needs to be censured and i applaud the congressman for standing up against her. something has to be done with

this idea. we cannot go into a country governed by the rule of man. we have to have governed by the rule of land. we know what happens when we call for violence under the obama administration when police officers were under attack and killed base of rhetoric like maxine waters. >> harris: your last quick thought jason. >> yeah, i remember her comments about confrontation. i thought they were unfortunate but i will say i don't recall any violence there in brooklyn center after she said that. i don't recall you said she stirred up trouble. i didn't see any violence. i didn't see violence. >> harris: here is the question for you and you don't have to answer it but think about it. the judge in the chauvin case said it may open the door on appeal for the defense. right? and if the jury at that moment was able to hear any of that we don't know. if they had already been sequestered at that point. i lived in minneapolis. i don't know how fast they

could get the next thing they needed to get to but when the judge said that they hadn't been gone that long. even if they didn't hear her say it they may have known the judge brought it up. who knows? we don't know. she is part of the case now. potentially part of an appeal. she is a name that gets dropped along with president biden because they couldn't stop talking. i have to stop talking and thank my guests. some of calling them out acetone deaf. speaker pelosi and the minneapolis major taking major heat for their remarks after the derek chauvin verdict. is the biden white house listening? arizona's governor has declared a state of emergency and sent more national guard troops to the border to address the migrant crisis which is getting worse. texas congressman chip roy joins "the faulkner focus" when we're back. and your family ing you

>> u.s. border patrol is overwemd and we haven't received an adequate response from the biden administration and today i'm announcing we're deploying the national guard on our own. this administration isn't going to do anything, we will. >> harris: arizona governor doug ducey taking matters into his own hands and deploying 250 national guard troops to the border. his state is struggling to process a record number of influx of migrants and nearly every day we see new images which illustrate how serious the crisis is. border officials earlier this month stopped a commercial trailer packed with nearly 150

migrants trying to cross illegally into the united states. none of them was wearing a mask when they were apprehended. we have to test these people and treat these people. a loot that goes into this. chip roy of texas joins me now and he is pushing hard for a vote on legislation that would reinstate enforcement of president trump's covid-19 protocols at our southern border as migrants overcrowd facilities. welcome to the program, congressman. first of all tell me about this effort and why it is so dire. >> glad to be on the show. let me take a few seconds to bring up the absurd tee of what maxine waters did and making the point she may have jeopardized the case causing a judge to question whether it would go down on appeal because of what she said. i appreciate you bringing that up. it is a travesty. what else is a travesty is what's happening at our southern border. cartels have operational control of our board. anybody following it knows that.

the state across the border from texas is run by a cartel and the cartel. they are using human beings as shields for profit. they are moving people into texas into our communities, san antonio which i represent. we've stopped vehicles with human beings being sent to stash houses in houston to be used for profit and to human trafficking and sex trafficking. the district attorney, a suburban town of san antonio. nine individuals headed to stash house. one boy paid $4,000 to the cartel to be sent to go pick grapes in california. they didn't tell him you are going to a stash house. the most powerful nation in the world we're allowing it to occur. kamala harris has been on the job for a month. literally she has done nothing. she has not gone to the border. she has done nothing to address this. yesterday i filed a discharge petition of my friend's bill to

require title 42, the cdc's requirement and guidelines we protect against the influx of pandemics into the united states. that we resume enforcing that which the biden administration has refused to do. now we'll force a vote on the floor of the house. if we can get up to six democrat colleagues to agree we should secure our border and fight against the spread of the pandemic. >> harris: and have you been talking with democrats to see if you'll get that kind of support? >> well first job is to get it down on the floor. we got signatures growing. when all republicans sign it we'll work with our democrats colleagues. i have great friends like henry cuellar on the southern border and understands how bad it is. i hope henley and some others will join us in the effort. this is a simple question. do you think we ought to employ all tools that our disposal to stop the flow coming across our border and protect americans against the dangerous pandemic when we're still having lockdowns and still having restrictions in place and mask

guidelines and protocols here? why aren't we doing what we are doing to secure the border? >> harris: i think it's an obvious question. i haven't heard it asked. why would the biden administration wipe around title 42 and protections regarding covid? is there some sort of knowledge the pandemic has ended by the white house that we don't know about? >> i wish they would tell us to get all the small businesses struggling and all of the negative impacts on our economy, schools still shut down. i hope they tell us and wish they would stop putting dr. fauci out there to continue to confuse the american people. what is happening at our border they're doing it for political reasons. simple. allowing cartels to get empowered. mexico to become more dangerous, texas and other states like arizona to have to deal with the crisis of danger on ranchs in our southern border, schools like i said. human traffickers. that was an american citizen driving the car being paid by the cartels. it exists in your communities,

ladies and gentlemen. the cartels are operating in your suburban communities not just the text a as. the biden administration don't care and ignoring what is happening at the border with respect to covid. we know that there are covid infected children in the facility. how do i know that? i went there. you know who hasn't gone there? kamala harris. they only want to use it for political purposes rather than doing their job to secure the border. border patrol, you talk to the border patrol union regularly. our great guys down there. they will tell you title 42 is the tool they've got to be able to stop the flow at the border and be able to hold the line. the democrats in the white house have already gotten rid of it for kids and families but now they're rumbling getting rid of it for everybody. if they do that the bum rush at our border will make the 171,000 in march seem like a trivial number. >> harris: i mean some of it falls on the hands, too, of the doctors and nurses that will have to help care for people in and when they are found

positive. i've been reporting hundreds of positives that have come out of that testing at the border so it becomes a potentially dangerous situation that we bear the brunt of. we're trying to save lives in addition to trying to save lives. it is a layering effect of them coming across and coming across sick potentially. >> can i add it is also part of the deterrent? you have the president of el salvador going on tucker a few weeks back and saying you are drawing people out of my country and decimating my country. how about the 7-year-old girl i met at the border. we have talked about her before who was all alone, coming up through mexico. why? because the democrat administration is encouraging the biden administration is encouraging more flow instead of using the tools we have at our disposal to stop the flow at the border. that's what this is about. protecting americans, protecting immigrants, and not empowering cartels. unfortunately the biden administration doesn't do that.

ask your congressman go get on this discharge petition to force a vote on the floor. democrats won't do it on their own. >> harris: we'll bring you back, congressman chip roy, to get a report and update on all of that. thank you very much for joining the program. >> thanks, harris, god bless you. >> harris: that was the tremendous amount of information what's happening at the border. 28 days since kamala harris the vice president was given the job to handle the border crisis by the president of the united states. she have is yet to go there. she says she will go to guatemala. we can't get a date on that, either. we'll report the facts as we get them. republicans will tearing into stacey abrams during a senate hearing yesterday on voting rights. we'll show you that and this. >> thank you, george floyd, for sacrificing your life for justice. >> harris: house speaker nancy pelosi under fire for saying that george floyd sacrificed his own life for justice. some calling it tone deaf. others calling it politics.

>> thank you, george floyd, for sacrificing your life for justice, for being there to call out to your mom. how heartbreaking was that, call out to your mom i can't breathe. but because of you, and because of thousands, millions of people around the world who came out for justice, your name will always be synonymous with justice. >> harris: house speaker nancy pelosi lit up social media with that statement. people were coming at her, oh my goodness. a writer for the left leaning guardian tweeted this. he didn't sacrifice his life. he was horrifically murdered. what the hell is that.

that's not my words, but the tweet. another user tweeted this. this time of lunacy is what happens when you view people as nothing but pawns for your cause. joe concha, fox news contributor and media and politics columnist for the hill. joe, your response to seeing all of this. >> what i'm not seeing speaking of the word seeing in the editorial pages of the "washington post" or "new york times." where are the op-eds for speaker pelosi for the words where she thanked george floyd for being killed? where are the late night hosts who wouldn't have passed up this opportunity to obviously there is a lot of material here to work with, with what madam pelosi said there. even journalists that seem to be paid by the word when they got book deals during the trump administration. i don't see the pius outrage.

if a republican had said it or donald trump or anybody in his administration the pitch fork store would have run out of pitch forks at this point in terms of the mass outrage we would have seen while we see some, certainly not remotely to the level we would have if this happened in 2020 under another administration. >> harris: critics also tore into minneapolis's mayor jacob frye for this tweet. george floyd came to minneapolis to better his life but his life would have bet erd our city. the jury joined in a shared conviction that has animated minneapolis for the last 11 months. one user wrote this in response. i guess the liberal line really is going to be sad he is dead but it turned out good in the end. astonishing. and this tweet, ug, no, this is only a tragedy. justice for a murdered man, not your city. you know, joe, wow.

>> wow. i think everyone is now dumber for having read that tweet or exposed to it by watching this show unfortunately. we bettered minneapolis. let's look at the numbers, shall we, under mayor frey? in 2020 they're seeing a 21% increase in violent crimes in the city of minneapolis. if you go to the north side of that city violent crimes were up 36%. property crime up in the double digits. while they dismantle their police force with that police force and morale at an all time low. if you live in minneapolis or surrounding area i'm certain that what happened with george floyd didn't better the city in any way particularly if you are a property owner and saw your business burn to the ground last year and somebody likes to take a walk after a nice meal in minneapolis. a lovely city. now you are afraid to do that because you fear for your safety. yeah, mayor, get another speech writer and tweet writer please or maybe think about another

occupation going forward. >> harris: minneapolis is my former home. where i met my husband. spent a lot of time in that city and st. paul. i love it. i love it there. the people are wonderful. i will say this. it doesn't make us dumber but smarter to know what these people say. one last worth from you. >> i think twitter is the worst thing to happen to a lot of people in the media business and politics. there is no editor or producer saying are you sure you want to go ahead with that particular thing? without the filter a lot of people get themselves in a lot of trouble on twitter, social media and why i gave it up for lent. the best 40 days of my life i have to say. >> harris: derek chauvin guilty for the murder of george floyd. the defense fight is not over yet which some say they will

>> it's very rare a judge will tell the defense attorneys that they have a ground for appeal. the ground being obviously maxine waters' incitement to the jury. >> i think this was all just creating a very bad situation for rendering justice in the case. that's when representative waters walks in and just pours gasoline on this fire. >> what we don't like to see is the pressure of politicians and the rhetoric and the mob to influence our rule of law in this country. >> harris: attorneys criticizing elected officials for comments they made before the chauvin guilty verdict came in which may warrant grounds for an appeal. notably congresswoman maxine waters and president biden. former federal prosecutor andy mccarthy wrote this. chauvin's conviction has a real chance of having the results

overturn because public officials have reckless less undermind the integrity of the trial. i want to bring in saul wisenberg independent counsel and fox news contributor. lay it out how it works that this might be fodder or material on appeal. >> it could be fodder or material on appeal if you can argue that this affected the jury. that the jury first of all you would have to be able to show that they were aware of it. and would have to have some evidence that it affected their deliberations. i have to say i think the comments of congresswoman waters were reprehensible certainly given her history, not surprising. but i think it's extremely unlikely that it alone will result in a reversal. the same thing for president biden, who while his comments were nowhere near as inappropriate as congresswoman waters shouldn't have been made

either. you don't know, when you say a jury has been sequestered you don't know what that means in this day and age. they could have easily heard what he said. no, this will not be, i believe, overturned for eats -- either of these reasons. >> harris: what about what the judge said? i tweeted immediately when he said that about appeal. he didn't say the words should you lose this case. i mean i thought okay, there must be some guilty verdicts in there then. it was odd the way he put it. can his own words be brought in on appeal? >> i'm not sure why your thought is that he already knew what the verdict was at that point in time. >> harris: i don't know. no, let me put it this way. i don't doubt the integrity of the judge. what i'm saying is sometimes when you keep speaking and words come out like that he didn't couch them. he said this may give you

grounds for an appeal. i'm not going to grant a miss trial right now but didn't couch it by saying. you would say we don't know the answer yet but should it not go the way you want you to use it on appeal. can you use that on appeal or not regardless of his intention? >> i don't think you can use that aspect of it on appeal. the jury wasn't there when he made that particular statement. i also want to say that i don't think his comments or his -- just his general comments you may have an issue on appeal are as significant as people think they are. i think judges say that much more frequently. you can take that up on appeal. now it's clear he was upset by her comments and criticized her which i think was very appropriate and her comments were very inappropriate. she never cares about that kind of stuff. it's obvious. she violated the curfew and said i don't care about the

curfews. if she had been of a different political persuasion at the michigan state capitol somebody might think differently about that. let's focus on what the effect is likely to be. judges say that all the time. that can be an appellate issue for you. the more disturbing thing was the judge's failure to change the venue in this case. even that isn't necessarily going the result in a reversal. >> harris: what about the other three officers who are up next in the legal proceedings against them who were with derek chauvin on the deadly day for george floyd? do these comments come into play for them and their trial coming up in august? >> i would certainly renew the motion given everything that has happened for a change of venue and i would perhaps ask that their juries be sequestered for the entire trial. keep in mind both of these officers from what i've read had been on the force for less than a week.

one of them had been trained by chauvin. so their deference to him is certainly something that could very well play in the minds of the jurors. as you know, one of them, lane, asked chauvin whether or not shouldn't we roll him over? every case is decided on its own facts. all of those will be factors there. >> harris: saul wisenberg, great to have your expertise and time today. thank you. >> thanks, great to be here. >> harris: stacey abrams taking a lot of heat from republicans yesterday on georgia's new voting laws. >> do you support voter identification laws? do you think they are motivated by trying to suppress african-american votes? >> sometimes it's racist. sometimes it's not racist. >> harris: we will tell you how she responded to that. georgia governor brian kemp is with me next. stay close.

♪ ♪ >> connecticut, delaware, massachusetts, new york have more descriptive, no excuse absentee voting. do you believe those election laws are racist? >> senator i'm responding to your question. >> can you answer yes or no? >> the voter i.d., sometimes it's racist and sometimes it's not racist? >> the intent always matters and that is the point of this conversation. >> harris: republican senators going after the georgia voting rights act and stacey abrams yesterday when democrats titled "jim crow 2021." here is utah congressman burgess owens reacting earlier to her saying, some security measures

like i.d. requirements are racist. >> the american dream, get into the middle class depends on that i.d. and we have a party, the bigotry of low expectations where all the sudden black people cannot do what every other race does, hispanics, italians, germans, everybody knows how to get an i.d., but obviously we don't. it's racist and their part. >> brian kemp, republican of georgia. thank you for being on the program. i want to get your thought and reaction on this right now. >> first of all, thanks for having me back. labeling the committee here jim crow is outrageous quite honestly. and then for the president and the democratic senators to tie the election bill to that is

even more just unbelievable. they need to quit lying to the people of our state and the people of the united states. focus on your own state like new jersey and new york that have more restrictive laws than we do. leave georgia alone. our bill makes it easy to vote and hard to cheat. we've been giving free voter i.d. since the mid-2000s. >> harris: i want to bring in some ranking members, chuck grassley who said this about the economic impact. let's watch together. >> there is an organized campaign starting to make business to the people of georgia for their political choices. when partisans and companies collude to ruin the livelihoods of their opponents. there is a term for that, it's economic terrorism. >> harris: strong words from chuck grassley and you say what in response?

>> we are seeing it every day and it's like i've said, people around the country need to be ready. they're coming for your small business next. they're coming for your states, ball game, your way of wife. stacey abrams can't have it both ways. these groups that quite honestly, she's profiting off of that are pressuring major corporations to support their god-given millions of dollars and then they are the same individuals like she acts like she's fighting for. people in georgia are not that stupid. for major league baseball come up for the people to boycott home depot. we are talking about hard work and georgians who are trying to make a living. they don't want to be involved in this bogus political fight. >> harris: governor, the first time we talked about this stacey abrams was in her process of walking that back.

when she finished the communities were getting hurt economically, oh, my goodness, maybe the mlb shouldn't have taken the all-star game to dinner. the 2018 election was also brought up at the hearing yesterday. watch this. >> yes or no, today, do you still maintain that the election was stolen? >> as i've always said, i acknowledged at the very beginning that brian kemp one wn under the rules, but i object to the rules that have voters being denied participation. to have their votes cast out. i will continue to disagree with the system until it's safe. >> harris: governor, your response? >> you know what's interesting is she never brings up the facts about the election or past election. the effect of the matter is,

2018 election, georgia had the largest african-american turnout in the country when you look at those racists. for her to say things like there is no basis behind that, and georgia we've had accessible, secure fair elections for many years. we've seen a minority participation turnout even with the photo i.d. requirement that some people say is racist and suppressive. it is not. everyone has a photo i.d. if you don't we will get you one for free. even in the spell, they make them available. in georgia, 56 of those ids were given out. these numbers that they throw out just don't add up. people need to know that this group is lying to you and there profiting from that and from this campaign and it's only hurting hardworking georgia business owners and folks who work with them and we will stand up and fight.

everybody else across the country needs to because they will come for your business, your way of next. i would remind everyone, this isn't about georgia. this is about hr one and sr one and what that hearing was yesterday with the federal takeover of elections which is unconstitutional. >> harris: governor kemp, thank you for your time today. we will have you back. good to see you. thank you for watching "outnumbered." "america report" starts right now. and we will begin with a fox news alert, democrats are doubling down on their outrage over a racist system and our country despite former minneapolis police officer derek chauvin being convicted of all charges in the murder of george floyd. this is "america report" and i am harris faulkner. with me here, emily compagno, shannon bream, author of
