♪ molly: former president trump and vice president kamala harris both hitting9 battleground states today as early in-person voting begins in michigan. harris campaigning with beyonce last night and trump sitting down for a 3-hour podcast interview with joe rogan. and he will be speaking in michigan today. welcome to "fox news live," i'm molly line. hello, griff. griff: great to be with you, i'm griff jenkins. team coverage continues from the campaign trail. mark meredith with former president trump just outside of detroit, but first the to peter doocy live in kalamazoo, michigan, ahead of vp harris' visit. hey, peter. >> reporter: griff, good afternoon. 30,000 people turned up to the

vice president's event in houston, rather, in houston, yeah, to see beyonce. and then beyonce did not sing. she just introduced the vice president. and the vice president's closing argument has been focused on one policy more than any other, abortion. >> if you hi the you are protected -- think you are protected from trump abortion bans because you live in michigan or pennsylvania or nevada or new york or california or any state where voters or legislators have protected reproductive freedom, please know no one is protected if there is a trump national abortion ban. it will outlaw abortion in every single state. >> reporter: there's too much talk about abortion access for some progressives in places like battleground pennsylvania where with activists are getting worried that the vice president is talking too much about that and about donald trump for

persuadable voters worried about the economy. the vice president claims she's not worried about turning anybody off with that closing argument, and she's boeing to t. >> one of the binges -- things that i love about the american people is we can hold many thoughts at once. my priority includes fighting for our democracy, including fighting for the freedom of people to make decisions about their own body, including what we must do to speak out against threats to our democracy. >> reporter: and the way these events work now with all the enhanced secret service protection, people that want to go see a major candidate have to get there really, really early. and you can see that thousands of people are queued up, being patted down ahead of this event that's still not supposed to start for several hours. back to you. griff: they're lining up in

kalamazoo where peter doocy is. molly? molly: and former president trump is on the ground just outside of detroit trying to woo voters as early voting begins there in michigan. it follows ap appearance on the biggest podcast in the world and comes before a trip to the blue city in pennsylvania. mark never kith also -- meredith out there in novi, michigan, with the latest. mark. >> reporter: good afternoon to you. as peter was seeing big crowds where he is, we're also seeing very large crowds because any moment now former the president trump expected to take the stage behind me. moments ago we learned that on stage trump is going to be joined -- and you hear him being announced right now -- by members of the arab and muslim community here in michigan. and why is that so notable? [cheers and applause] because they make up a large bloc of voters in the state of michigan. and vice president harris has been struggling to hold on to that support. and it could prove if crucial in a swing state like this where the race could be determined by only a matter of a thousand,

2,000, 3,000 votes, if you will. where we are here in novi outside of detroit, we have seen people lining up for hours for the former president. this rally thank god, molly, is inside and not outdoors in travis city last night because trump was running three hours late. as you can see live on your screen, the former president addressing a bunch of cell phones as people take their photos. but he's expected to reach the stage any moment now after "god bless usa" wrap up. trump, of course, likely the talk a lot about the state of the the race at this point with polls showing here in michigan harris is ahead by only about 3 points, within the margin of error. this is a state that trump flipped in 2016, but democrats got it back in 2020, and at this point it is anybody's guess how michigan plays out. trump is also likely to talk about his views on the economy, immigration, the same closing argument that we've heard from the former president a number of times. he was also on that joe rogan

podcast last night. it went for three hours long, we were listening to it on the car ride out here to michigan. he covered a number of different topics, but whether or not it was going to sway anybody is yet to be seen. as you and griff talked the about, it's a huge audience in that podcast, so he's going to be able to reach people that maybe would not traditionally tune into the news to hear it. while he's here in michigan, it's also about getting out the vote for some of the congressional and senate candidates. he's likely to the thank them. they were part of the pre-program. they had a chance to talk about why they think -- what they think matters here. and trump clearly enjoying the spotlight. the event that we are likely to hear from him is just one of several stops that he's got planned. we know he's got a visit in pennsylvania tonight and then tomorrow, molly, the big event, that's the event in madison square garden in new york not far from where you are. i mean, if you think this is a big audience, i can only imagine how many people are going to be there in madison square garden. the former president likely --

like likely to take ma -- make that his closing argument in the final stretch and, boy, he's got some battleground stops planned out. it looks like we're getting ready to hear from the former president as he takes the stage right now in michigan. [cheers and applause] >> usa! usa! usa! usa! >> thank you very much. well, thank you very much, and a very big hello the michigan, which we're leading, by the way, by a lot. [cheers and applause] and i'm thrilled on back in this incredible state with thousands of proud, hard working american patriots, which is what you are. [cheers and applause] finish you know, last night my opponent had one of these, and they busted people. but they got -- bussed in people. they got beyonce, you know beyonce. hay got beyonce. beyonce went up and spoke for a couple of minutes and then left.

the place went crazy. they booed the hell out of everybody. they thought she was going to perform. now, i would have no interest in that this, but they said -- in that, and what happened is my opponent got up and started speaking, they booed the hell out of her. so they have to use people to get people to come, and then they send buses. we don't send buses. everybody comes. we're just going to make america great again, it's very simple. [cheers and applause] i thought i'd tell you that little story because you'll never hear it from the fake new- [background sounds] they don't talk about it. they wouldn't tell you stories like that. so i'd like to begin by asking a very simple question, are you better off now than you were four years ago? i think so. [laughter] i think so. i doubt it. i doubt it. i'm here today with a message of

hope for all americans. with your vote in this election, we will end inflation. you know what? it's we, not me. we will stop the invasion of criminals into our country. [cheers and applause] and i will bring back the american dream for your children and for yourself. this is all you need to know: kamala broke it, i will fix it. it's going to be very, very interesting. [cheers and applause] if we'll fix it. you know, i've been watching what's happening. you know, you do know she's to doing really wadley -- badly, right? she can't speak. there's something wrong with her. we went through four year withs of that. we -- years with of that. we can't go through four more years of that. with your sport support on november 5th, america will be

bigger, better, bolder, richer, safer and much stronger than ever before. [cheers and applause] election is a -- this election is a choice between whether we will have pour more years of gross -- four more years of gross incompetence and if failure or whether we will given the four greatest years in the history of our country. [cheers and applause] just so you know, this is it because we're not going to be able to save it much concern this is it. we've gone as low as we're going to go. we have to be able to save it. any longer, you're not going to be able to save it. it's going to be gone. we're not going to let that happen to this country. i'm asking you to be excited about the future of our country. i'm asking you to dream big again for you and your family, or your children. this is going to be america's new golden age. you watch. we're going to bring that, we're gonna bring back those car companies in michigan.

[cheers and applause] they're going to come into detroit. i've been hearing about promises for 40 yearsen on detroit. we're going to make the promise, you're going to have those car companies come roaring back through intelligent uses of tariffs, taxes and incentives. they're all coming back. they don't come back, they're not going to be selling any cars in this country, let me tell you right now. and i have to tell you, i just did something very big for detroit and for michigan in particular, in particular. i killed the massive plants that were going to be built many in mexico. they're dead, they're all dead. [cheers and applause] and they were going to drive out all your damn business. they were going to take every one of yours -- they were building the biggest plants in the world in mexico. they were all -- and you know who owned them? china. and they were going to to flood our country with cars from just

across the border, and i killed them. you know why i killed them? because i said we're not going to have it. i'm going to win, and i'm going to put tariffs on those cars, and those cars will never be able to pay the tear tariff because -- tariff, and because they would be too high, and they gave up on the project. they're not going to build the project. how good is that? and i'm not even in office. how about that? [cheers and applause] but we will be soon. so if i can do that out of office, think about what the hell i can do in office, right? [cheers and applause] and i'll tell you what, these are the biggest plants in the world. one of them's the biggest plant in the world by far. i think there's more business than your whole state would do with the auto -- [inaudible] [audio difficulty] and what i did is i said there's no car coming in because they were going to just flood the

whole nation. it would affect other states too, but i think of michigan and i think of detroit, it was going to end it. you've already lost 70% probably from the heyday. it's dead. and we're going to now build it up. you're going to be the bigger and better with the industry than you've ever been even in your hey aday. [cheers and applause] heyday. i got a lot of friends here. [cheers and applause] i know half the people -- [cheers and applause] the future senator, i hope. mike, you gotta win this thing. he's gonna win. he's gonna win. every problem facing us can be solved, but now the fate of our nation is truly in your hands, michigan. you have to stand up, and you have to tell kamala harris, the

worst vice president in the if history of our country,, the worst president and she's the worst vice president. they stole the election from this guy. they stole the it. they said, you're out, joe, you're out. crazy nancy, schumer, all of them, they went in, you're outta here, joe. no, i, i won 14 million votes. you know he got 14 million votes. kamala got no votes, and she took over. that's a threat to democracy, right? you know, to use their term. [cheers and applause] but you're going to tell kamala harris that it's going to start right here. you know, if we win michigan, the whole deal is over, you know that. you're gonna if say, kamala, you're no good, you did a lousy job. you destroyed san francisco, you destroyed california, you destroyed everything you

touched. you're knot gonna destroy -- not gonna destroy our nation. kamala harris, you're fired, get the hell out of here! get out of here, you're fired! [cheers and applause] all right. we gotta get her the hell out. if she did to you what she did to san francisco, you don't want to have it. she destroys everything. not a good person either. you know, i've seen the ads she puts out. like, i don't have to -- [inaudible] anything i did, anything i say she puts ads in, and we're mainstream. you know what we are? we're common sense. she will put an ad in saying the exact opposite of what i believe and what i've been -- and what i've been saying for 20 years. she's changed 15 policies in order to be able to run, like no transgender operations for people in detention, upon will

paid for by the government. -- [background sounds] she changed, like, men in women's sports. she wants men to be able to participate in women's -- [background sounds] she probably got rid of that. like no fracking. there will be no -- for her whole life, no fracking. no oil and gas. we don't want oil and gas. oh, really? how are we going to get the cars to run? when we want to go a little bit further, how are we going to get if them to the run? she's changed everything over the last year and a half because you can't get elected with that stuff unless you cheat, which is what they do, quite frankly. but you can't get elected. she's changed every one of them. if you change one policy concern one thing with me, i've been consistent. i saw on a fake news show today i was watching, one thing you have the say, he's been saying the the same thing for 30 years, it's true. they can't steal your car

business, they can't take your jobs. it's how i got into politics in the first place are. but we're going to bring all those plants back, we're going to to bring all those jobs back, and i've been saying that -- she's never said that. but every single thing, if you have her concern it's not -- it's not gonna happen, i don't believe. i'm not supposed to say this because you've got to vote. if you don't vote, otherwise i'm not -- we're doing really well. i'm supposed to say it's the really tight. but you've got to vote anyway. you've got to vote. in fact, we have a chance of maybe doing something that nobody's ever cone before politically in this country, thiess not for a long time, but -- at least not for a long time. but we win michigan, we win the whole deal, and we make america great again. you got to get out and vote. [cheers and applause] early, in-person voting in michigan is now open statewide.

i'm asking you to go to vote trump, votetrump.com right after this rally ends, and you're gonna seeing? but go. let me ask you, it used to be you had one-day voting, paper ballots, voter identification. today it's illegal. how about this guy gavin newscum is california? he just signed a bill making it illegal to even ask a person for voter identification. think want to put you in jail -- they want to put you in jail. [background sounds] that's a next step. we're gonna get this whole thing straighted -- straightened out. it's crazy. you know what, even the democrats, you go to the democrat, they don't want that, the people. they don't want that. they want to have voter id. they want to have the proof of your country. in other words, are you a citizen of the country? that'd be nice to have, right? but gavin newsom in california, they signed -- i didn't even

believe it. i thought it was april fools. i said are we in april, by any chance? april fools' day. comes out with a bill that you are not allowed to ask a person whether or not they have voter id. if you coit, you have broken -- do it, you have broken the law. can you -- you'll get arrested if you ask a person. this is where we're going. it's going to end, and it's going to end very quickly. [cheers and applause] so as you probably have been reading, we're setting records in the early vote in michigan and in, i think, most of the other states. and you have until november 3rd to vote early. so you can do that, but the main thing is to go vote. go vote. how many people have voted so far? okay, that's good. how many people are going if to vote? [cheers and applause]

so much for our early voting drive, right? by the way, i love that. because we're already leading in the early vote, which is something no republican has cone in michigan -- has done in michigan since they went to this ridiculous system. you know, you know what the ridiculous system is, you have the are rest of your life to vote. anytime you want, come on in -- the whole thing is -- we used to have one-day voting. voter id, paper ballots. prove that you're a citizen of the united states, please. and you know what? you had no problems. 9:00, 9:30 you announce the winner. somebody's unhappy and somebody's not, but there's no stuff going up to the sky, back, forth and -- it would cost 8% -- this is not the most important thing, but it's the important. paper ballots would cost 8% of

what the machines cost. and paper ballots concern how about these machines? half the machines they said we won't be able to give you a vote for six days on election nightment. we won't be able to give you a vote for six days. with paper ballots, 10:00 in the evening, they announce. there's bad stuff going on. why are we paying ten times the cost for something that doesn't give you the vote for a long time? you see it all the time. they have states that say we'll need a few more days. with paper ballots, you don't. you know, france had mail-in voting, all this stuff, and it was really working badly. it was corrupt. and they went to paper ballots, voter id, same-day voting. one day. they had 39 million votes at the end, they had a winner, they had a loser and everybody went home. we're gonna get it back. with your help ten days from noy against it -- griff: you've been listening to

former president trump in novi, michigan. we'll continue to monitor that and bring you any news if it warrants. for reaction hoe to what we've just been listening to, let's bring in now former acting i.c.e. director and fox news center, tom homan. tom, thanks for being here. you're listening to the former president's speech there. a lot of the same things we've heard. he's making his closing argument. and really even though we can't just hear much of it there, we know a centerpiece of his closing argument has been immigration and the border. what's your reaction the what you're hearing in these closing days? >> look, i think, i think that's the strockest point because he -- strongest point because he proved to the american people his success was unprecedented. i worked for six presidents starting ronald reagan, and every president i worked for took steps to secure the border. even clinton and obama did. but no one had the unprecedented success of donald trump.

illegal immigration down 90, illegal immigration down, you know, a 45-year low. 90%. he was an out of the box thinker. most secure border in my lifetime. i did this for over 34 years. the most secure border i've seen in my career. so that's why he needs to keep pushing the american people. this administration, the biden-harris -- awed tiff. griff: all right, we'll work to get tom's signal back up. important discussion there talking about the differences as both trump or and hearst are claiming -- and harris are claiming that they have got a future to deal the with the border. meanwhile, molly, over to you. molly: the israeli military hits targets in tehran overnight as tensions remain high in the region. our senior foreign correspondent greg palkot is in haifa, israel, rack thing developments there there on the ground -- tracking developments there on the ground. greg, to you. >> reporter: molly, at least for the moment israel has

wrapped up its retaliation against iran. for fur hours early this morn -- morning some 100 israeli fighter jets and drones took the 1,000-mile trip the iran and conducted what israel says were precisely-calibrated strikes on iranian military targets. the first wave aimed at taking out air defenses including in syria and iraq and then hitting 20 long-range missile production, preparation and storage sites near tehran and two other regions in iran. it doesn't seem like any nuclear or energy facilities were hit as the biden administration if had requested. it looked like, in fact, a very specific retaliation for the barrage of some 180 ballistic missiles iran fired at israel on october 1st. israel was defiant. >> if the regime in iran were the make the mistake of beginning a new the round of

escalation, we will be obligated the respond. finish -- to respond. >> reporter: even though it's now reported that four iranian soldiers were killed, tehran seems on to downplaying the attack a bit claiming many israeli projectiles were intercepted and that the damage was minimal. still, iran's foreign minister said today his country has, quote, no limits when it comes to defending its territorial integrity. president biden simply saying he hopes this is the end. a lot of people do. molly? molly: greg palkot, thank you, giving us the lay of the back and forth, ongoing issues there. for more on this largest attack by israel on iran, let's bring in former israel defense forces paratrooper and fellow at the heritage foundation daniel flyer. thank you so much for bringing us your insights here on this saturday. we just heard from brilliant report from greg palkot laying out what's happening there on the ground. so the most recent thing is israel and their actions, their

retaliation for this largest ballistic missile attack ever seen on their homeland actually across the globe. but your thoughts on this response and the message that it's serving to iran. >> thank you, molly. israel's attack against iran was historic, and it was a tactical victory and success. for the israeli air force to travel over 1,000 kilometers to operate with effective impunity for a few hours over iranian air space, to have complete air superiority and dominance other iran, the target and take out the specific military sites they intended to and return essentially unscathed is, again, unprecedented. and this sends a message tonight iranians, clearly the regime, that if they choose to escalate that they are exposed, they're vulnerable, and israel can up the ante even further by attacking more critical and key sites in iran. it's a message to the americans, the saudis and partners around the region that iran is not as strong as they believe.

but it remains to be the seen whether israel can translate this victory into a strategic success. molly: and one of the big headlines here is that the u.s. had put some pressure on israel to limit their response to iran to avoid the oil sites and nuclear sites. here we are on the cusp of an election just ten days, what, what does that mean for the israelis as, certainly, they're watching this very close american election that's playing out? >> this is in part why i call it a tactical victory. the war that israel's fighting existence iran on seven different fronts does not appear to be abating. and israel did not change the nature of the regime by targeting those critical nuclear and oil sites. israel's war is with the iranian regime, not with the people. taking out energy facilities would be harmful, certainly, to the country9 and the people. the nuclear facilities is a difference story. again, if israel wants to up the ante, target nuclear sites, energy facilities, the regime, key personnel and the irgc

forces themselves, they can certainly do that. but they've been withheld by the biden-harris administration from changing the strategic balance in the region. molly: which, i guess, brings us to to how closely iran is watching this election and potentially a new president because, certainly, there will be a new administration incoming here. what they might be thinking as far as their response to this. are they thinking about the americans? are they also thinking about just about the israelis who really are fighting this multifront effort, but specifically the big escalation we're seeing here with iran? >> i think american politics has a lot to do with the actions not only from the administration, but also from israel as well as the iranians. if they're to respond now to israel's attack before the election, israel would have to respond respond to as well whether before the election or after remains to be seen. think they're calculating that and, i would argue, hoping for a harris victory because president trump was very forceful against the iranians --

molly: daniel, thank you very, very much. really appreciate your insights on american politics. we have to shift gears a little bit. thank you for your time. this is president biden, he's speaking in pittsburgh. this is a busy election campaign weekend. he's delivering remarks in the key battleground state. let's listen. >> -- when i got elected president, the business was going to help us. they were going to provide trend trend prenticeships. give me a break. [laughter] give me a break. anyway -- [laughter] i don't want to get going here. but, look, the -- you know, ten days, ten days. now, i know i look like i'm only 40 -- [laughter] 46, i'll take that. i'd take 66. [laughter] all kidding aside, you know, this is the most important election of our lifetime no matter how young or old you are. not a joke. not hyperbole. it's not democrat, republican. this is decency versus the lack of decency. this is about character, this

election. and folks who know -- i gotta choose my words here. the choice couldn't be clearer. the choice couldn't be more stark. i am a president, as pointed out, walked the picket line. so has kamala, walked the picket line. the only picket if line trump ever looks at is when he can, in fact, cross a picket line. not walk it, cross it. name me something he's ever cone, one single thing. name me one single thing as a private entrepreneur or as a candidate he's ever done for american labor. name me -- >> [inaudible] >> no, i'm being deadly honest because this is, i mean, this even shouldn't be close, but he wins, everything you talked about he said he wants to get rid of. not one thing you talked about,

does he support. not one thing. not a single thing. you know -- molly: all right. just a quick listen there to president biden on the ground in pittsburgh, pennsylvania, that key battleground. we are following the candidates, we're following all the folks that are trying to get them elected as well, and we will have more when we come right back. ♪ ♪ here's to beating these two every thursday. help fuel today with boost high protein, complete nutrition you need, and the flavor you love. so, here's to now... now available: boost max! let's start with the eyechart. what makes you think i can read? you can talk... and you booked an eye exam online. okay... um. good points. get two pairs and an eye exam for $79.95 at america's best.

it'll be illegal for them to cast a ballot. these are people who have been flagged as potential noncitizens under virginia governor glenn youngkin's executive order which, beginning in august, required daily checks of dmv data against voter rolls. previously, the state only did monthly checks according to a state law passed in 2006. the department of justice and immigration rights groups argued that roughly 1600 people who were flagged under youngkin's order had been wrongly removed because of mistakes or bureaucratic errors. the federal judge siding with them after an hours-long hearing yesterday saying youngkin's executive order violated a federal law which bars purges to voter rolls so close to an election. the state, though, has already appealed to the fourth u.s. circuit court of appeals asking for a decision by monday. virginia's attorney general telling fox the state was simply

following the laws on the books despite daily checks of dmv record. >> the root of all of this is a law that got put on the books back in 2006 signed by a democrat governor, tim kaine, and it's been enforced by democratic governments which is removing noncitizens off our voter roll. the idea that they would come into virginia, attack a decades-old law and then go after simply just days before an election really defies all especially common sense. >> reporter: over in battleground pennsylvania, a criminal investigation is underway by the lancaster county district attorney after election officials there flagged about 2500 voter registration forms for potential fraud. and the down south where a conservative u.s. a piles court has rules -- appeals court has ruled against a mississippi law which allowed election officials to count mail-in ballots which are postmarked by the election day but received after. the ruling sends the issue back

to a lower court for further consideration but, griff, the final decision is likely to be appealed all the way to the u.s. supreme court. back to you. griff: seems like a lot of this may end up in the high court. c.b. cotton tracking all of the ballot craziness for us, thank you. molly? molly: all right. all eyes are turning to nebraska. the senate race there is between incumbent senator deb phisher and her independent challenger -- fischer, dan osborn. it could shake up the balance of power in the senate. for m let's bring in republican senator from nebraska deb fischer. thank you, senator, for being here as we are in the final stretch. s this is a pretty interesting one. it wasn't on the radar, now it suddenly is. you won handily in your last election, easy victory, but this has gone from likely to lean in the latest race watching issues. and there's concerns about the amount of money being raised by this independent. a lot of democrats throwing some

money behind hem. your thoughts on how tight this is. is this a race to watch? >> well, what we're seeing here is a lot of rich, out of state democrats or who are trying to buy a senate seat here in nebraska. they've already spent about $a 15 million if -- $15 million in attack ads on me, and they're backing my opponent because he believes in amnesty for illegals, he wants to put them on social security. he would be the 51st vote for gun control, and he doesn't want any limits on abortion. but more the more nebraskans learn about danes os to born, the less they like him -- dan osborn. our latest polling is definitely showing me trending up in this race now. molly: well, you raise an important point about the money game. we have a graphic that talks about some of the ad spending and that you are being outspent. this is big money, as you mentioned. and a lot of it, of course, would be potentially from out of state donors.

what -- dan osborn has presented himself not as a democrat, he's calling himself an independent, and frustrated voters might look at this. and there could be an appeal, you know? many years ago i covered scott brown's race in massachusetts. he ultimately went on to to defeat the democrat, but he drove a pickup truck around the state. this is kind of a similar strategy. he's or considered a more serious contender than was expected. do you think that's the case? is this a serious contender? is this something republicans should be watching? >> i think, of course, we always have to watch this whenever you have a lot of money come into a state like nebraska. $15 million ask a lot of -- is a lot of ad money here in the state. but, no, i wouldn't call him a serious candidate. he does not discuss the issues. he only attacks me, and his super pac only attack me, and i believe there's just not enough money in the world the hide the fact that i am the trump-endorsed candidate in this

race, and he's just a democrat in disguise. molly: yeah. and i don't know if you need them, but trump is leading, very far ahead in nebraska. if there were coattails, those could potentially be something that might help. one of the hinges that trump has said about your -- things that trump has said about your to poarnghts comparing him to bernie sanders. is this independent, as he claims to be, really a democrat? >> you know, i think he's really a democrat just because he aligns with democrats when he's -- when you look at what he has said on the issues. and we just need to listen to his own words when he says he wants to give illegal immigrants a social security card. that's amnesty. he wants to give them social security benefits. all you have to do is listen to him. and he also has said, though, that he loves bernie sanders. so i believe we need to take him at his word. and, as i said, when we have

nebraskans learn more and more about dan os to born, they realize -- os to born, they realize that this is outside money coming into nebraska, and you have all these rich billionaires who support kamala harris trying to buy a senate seat in nebraska. and that is not going to happen. molly: republican senator deb fischer, thank you very much for jobbing us, giving us insight on how you feel about the race with ten days to go. >> thank you. molly: greatly appreciate you talking with us. thank you. griff? griff: coming up, how l.a. t.a. george gascon's decision to recommend resentencing for the menendez brothers is being called into question over the timing of the announcement. that's next. ♪ ♪ than help you reach your goals. -you can make this work. -we can make this work. it can help you reach them with confidence. no wonder more than 9 out of 10 of our clients are likely to recommend us. ameriprise financial. advice worth talking about. okay everyone, our mission is to provide complete,

♪ ♪ molly: los angeles district attorney george gascon has recommended that the menendez brothers be resentenced after more than 30 years in prison for

the murder of their parents. for more on this let's bring in criminal defense attorney brian claypool. brian, thank you so much for joining us. we greatly appreciate your insights. you know, when this case was going on in the '900s, it was incredible legal drama. this was an incredibly violent crime against one's parents. this all plaid out, now a new generation that has discovered this case with a netflix documently. i just want the get your thoughts on the session gascon is making here and what it potentially means. >> hey, or molly. yeah, times have changed, right, from when this trial went on. of it was like the trial of the decade. i was a very, like you said, violent crime and the menendez brothers were portrayed the as two spoiled brats who killed their parents and went on a shopping spree, right, and they deserved this life without parole. times have changed over the last 30er, 35 years where our society is looking more closely at child

sexual abuse and how does that affect how you think. and, look, when you combine that with george gas congress, he's the l.a. a county d.a., over the last four to years, molly, he has endorsed no cash bail, decided not to prosecute serious crimes, theft, which has led to a lot of smash and grabs out here in l.a. a county can. and he's been an advocate of resentencing. he says he's resentenced 300 convicted criminals in 4 years and only 14 of those have had a recidivism rate or committed another crime. so you factor all that in, he said, look, let's take a close look at these guys. and because they're under 26, i'm not sure if you know that, the law in california allows them to be out in 50 years to life and serving 35 years, be eligible for parole. molly: yeah. at the time of this murder, erik and lyle were age, they were 18 and 21 years old. this happened in 198. they were convicted in '9 6. and as you to mentioned, the

perception and what people know about child sex abuse has changed. they claimed they were sexually molested by their father. there's also politics potentially at play. gascon is trailing his more conservative challenger, nathan hochman. he's a little bit of -- here's a little bit of sound the political aspect possibly at may here. >> george gascon is in the process of suffering the worst and and most humiliating defeat by an elected district attorney in the history of the united states. he's down 30 points. he has no money. and because of that, what he's had to do is try and generate as much publicity as he can. molly: your thoughts on that. is there a political angle here? >> yeah, molly, look, i'm not a big fan of george gascon for the reasons i just behave -- gave you, right? his george soros-backed policies that have led to the dangerous condition here in l.a. county. but i gotta tell you on with

then, i really don't think generated this for political reasons. your audience has to remember that this was triggered by a note that an aunt of one of thes petition that had been filed as well by menendez's legal team. one thing i would question is timing, but in terms of substance of should the brothers be resentenced, having represented over a hundred sexual abuse victims, i really do think this is the type of case that should be looked at in terms of resentencing. molly: yeah. you're talking about this revelation, the letter dating back to 1988, being found later. remember, too, there were two trials. one trial there was a dramatic amount of evidence that was put in and another trial where there was not as much evidence. to that effect, regarding the child sexual abuse aspect, that

was not allowed. brian claypool, thank you so much. talking a little politics with us, kind of a true crime story that has captured this new generation and possibly some big developments in the weeks and months ahead. brian claypool, thank you very much. griff: all right, coming up, the marine corps marathon is thunderstorm -- tomorrow, and i haven't started training yet. uh-oh. we've got a potential guest on that coming up next. ♪ ♪ hey little bear bear. ♪ ♪ ♪ i'm gonna love you forever ♪ ♪ ♪ c'mon, bear. ♪ ♪ ♪ you don't...you don't have to worry... ♪ ♪ be by your side... i'll be there... ♪ ♪ with my arms wrapped around... ♪

less likely that iran will be able to attack israel again in the future? >> what i can say is that it is a consensus pg among leaders in the region and and, certainly, it is the strong perspective of the united states that there must be deescalation and not an escalation of activities in that region. >> ma'am, to expand on that, what is your message to iran specifically as they consider retaliation? >> listen are, we, i feel very strongly, we as the united states feel very strongly that iran must stop what it is doing in terms of the threat that it presents to the region, and we will always defend israel existence any attacks by -- against any attacks by iran in that a way.
