this stuff. we shall take it case-by-case. nice to see you in bucks county. >> dana: before we go. police chasing down an escaped kangaroo. this is in a place i know, durango, colorado. apparently it is legal to have a kangaroo as a pet there and the officers got the animal and he is back home safe and sound. gutfeld know. animals are great. maybe he will want a kangaroo. it is legal. how is that legal? >> bill: what i love about durango, colorado has one of the coolest roads in all of america. >> dana: the royal gorge. a beautiful spot if you haven't been. harris faulkner will take you through the next hour. >> harris: fox news alert. the u.s. supreme court just got involved in making sure the election is fair.

along straight ideological lines the high court has cleared the way for virginia to remove non-citizens from its voting rolls basically up holding virginia's election laws. former u.s. attorney andy mccarthy moments ago. >> it's the only result that really makes sense. what virginia was trying to do was take people off the ballot who are not voters because they are not americans and that's by their own admission. and this idea that this could prevent or mistakenly result in american citizens from virginia not being able to vote is bogus because under virginia law, let's say they've taken you off the ballot mistakenly. under virginia law, if you show up to vote on election day and you attest that you are an american citizen. >> harris: matt whitaker, former acting u.s. attorney general and trump campaign surrogate with me

now. so you have looked at this issue before this quick vote or quick ruling by the u.s. supreme court. by the way, we've just heard governor glenn youngkin is at an event now and will step up and call into us just moments from now. want to let the audience know that. this seemed very quick, matt. >> it does but it's a pretty simple issue. the issue is whether or not these were individual voters cleaned off the rolls or whether it was systematic cleaning of the rolls. obviously the district court and appeals court suggested it was systematic. the state of virginia was adamant these were individual non-citizens. remember, it is illegal for a non-citizen to register and say they are a citizen and illegal for a non-citizen to vote and they should expect if they vote illegally they will be prosecuted. >> harris: what's interesting about that, then, is it really goes in concert with what virginia's law is over this

issue and what the governor has told me on this very program when it popped up last week with a lawsuit from the justice department. and that is simply you check a box saying whether or not you are a non-citizen or you leave it blank. they both accomplish the same thing. you are in question now and you have to cure that in several ways, the state gets in touch with you to repair that. so this isn't just a matter of someone thinking so and so was a non-citizen. >> no, that's a good point, harris. if you are taken off the rolls there is a way to cure that. they send you a letter, you can cure it before or go to the polls on election day attest you are a citizen and vote. there are many ways to make sure this doesn't violate people's ability to vote. but remember, it is illegal for non-citizens to vote and non-citizens to register and say they are a citizen. >> harris: great to have you so quick on the breaking news and also this. virginia governor glenn youngkin

joining me now. governor, joining us by phone. when you and i spoke just last week had you any idea that this decision would be made so quickly by the highest court in the land? >> as you can imagine, i'm incredibly pleased with the decision today and the supreme court reacted quickly. i want to thank our attorney general and his team's amazing work. this is a victory for common sense. it is a victory for the constitution and i also believe it is real clarity that, in fact, someone who self-identifies as a non-citizen should in virginia be treated by the law, which says you get two weeks, you will be notified, and if you can attest you are a citizen you will be allowed to vote. if you can't, you are taken off the rolls and we do have the ultimate safeguard, which is you can come day off and you can register same day and cast a provisional ballot. therefore, no one is being

precluded from voting who is a citizen in the united states. this is a victory for common sense and i thank the supreme court for moving quickly. of course, the great legal team that we have here in the commonwealth of virginia under our attorney general. >> harris: i know you stepped away from an event and won't hold you long. what happens with the 1,600 approximate people who were removed for either checking a box or it was proven they were none citizens? what happens with them? >> the voter rolls are as they are today. they will not be added back. we had a stay on the injunction and therefore the 1600 people who self-identified as non-citizens are not being added back and if someone can come attest that they are a citizen and wants to same day register and cast a provisional ballot please come vote. all citizens in america and virginia should vote.

this is an incredibly important election. the future of the country hangs in the balance. i encourage everyone, go vote. >> harris: there are concerns in other states right now. this quick action by the u.s. supreme court, what does it sort of maybe inform the voting public, teach people who are heads of state like yourself about how quickly the u.s. supreme court will act? some might have said well, they wouldn't get involved right before an election. >> well again, i think this is a victory for common sense and a victory for the constitution. and as governor, i swore that i would support and defend the constitution of the united states of america, constitution of the commonwealth of virginia, and i'm just so proud of the team's fortitude to stay with what we know is right. it is constitutionally correct, it is consistent with our law that has been on the books for 18 years, and on top of that common sense says that

non-citizens should not be in the voter rolls. >> harris: quickly, with the influx of millions of people, many illegal in the last 3 1/2 years, is there a concern that people who are here would try to vote? does it make the job even more important to identify non-citizens? >> again in the commonwealth of virginia we have taken this issue head on and made sure that we are using a legal process that starts in our dmvs when someone comes in for a temporary driver's license or something and they self-identify as a non-citizen to make sure if they're on the voter rolls the process starts to remove them if they're non-citizens. this is a very good law. let me just take it one step further. speaker johnson's advocacy of a national law to demonstrate that you are a citizen before you are allowed to vote is critical.

i do hope that america will extend our majority in the house, flip our senate, and put donald trump back in the white house for lots of reasons, one of which is we need federal legislation to make it very clear on what it takes to register to vote in america. >> harris: that's interesting. i wrote that down, speaker johnson's national law on that. do you think this helps that along? does this give that more power in terms of getting people's attention on this issue? >> again, the constitutionality of this is critical and on top of that, common sense wins today. again, i have said over and over and over again that americans and virginians want common sense in leadership and the white house and congress and do the things that address the problems of the nation. secure the border, be strong

internationally, develop an economy that lifts up all americans with high growth and low inflation, and let's make america strong again. that is what this election is all about. at the heart of it is doing things that we know are right, common sense, not illogical. >> harris: your victory via the u.s. supreme court keeping non-citizens that you have identified or who identified themselves off the voting rolls. thank you for being here with me in "focus" with your first reaction. appreciate it. >> thank you. everybody go vote. >> harris: go vote, amen. it is down to the final countdown in a race, as we know, a very important moment, and it is very close. both candidates all over battleground states again today. kamala harris made her closing pitch last night. however, this morning she is doing some damage control after

a major misstep from her current boss. >> i strongly disagree with any criticism of people based on who they vote for. >> harris: yet again president biden proving to be a problem for the kamala harris campaign. kellyanne conway to break it down this time in "focus." just to see if you qualify for a home loan. yet, some lenders charge you hundreds of dollars in upfront fees just to apply. they keep your money even if they turn you down. call newday. unlike other lenders, at newday there's no upfront appraisal fee, no upfront termite inspection fee and no upfront water test fee. not $1 out of pocket. give us a call.

>> harris: both presidential candidates are hitting multiple battleground states today. former president donald trump and vice president harris will rally in north carolina. last hour kamala harris worked to distance herself from the president of the united states. president biden's abject insult

about trump supporters. >> listen, i think that first of all he clarified his comments, but let me be clear, i strongly disagree with any criticism of people based on who they vote for. >> harris: here is what he said exactly. just before kamala harris made her closing argument. big night for her and now some of the air is being sucked out of that. here is what biden said. >> president biden: just the other day a speaker at his rally called puerto rico a floating island of garbage. let me tell you something, i don't know the puerto ricans i know or puerto rico in my home state of delaware are good, decent, honorable people. the only garbage i see floating out there is his supporters. >> harris: that lit up social media within seconds. it was a comedian who said the original words. the president of the united states to our last check doesn't

do stand-up, those were his words. biden and the white house moved quickly to try to clean it up saying he was referring to the rhetoric from a singular trump supporter, not all of them. i don't really see how that jives. the white house put out a transcript to emphasize an apostrophe over the word supporters showing it was meant to be singular. murky, murky. president trump compared it to another infamous insult about his supporters. >> wow. [crowd chanting usa, usa, usa] >> that's terrible. she said deplorable and then she said irredeemable but she said

deplorable. that didn't work out. garbage is worse. he have doesn't know. you have to please forgive him. please forgive him, for he not knoweth what he said. >> harris: griff jenkins obviously outside the white house. griff. >> good morning. it is hard to imagine that this was what vice president harris wanted to be talking about this morning after last night's major speech here at the ellipse and it is pretty clear the white house has gone into cleanup mode in statements like the ones you just showed. perhaps we'll hear more at the white house briefing later today. despite the white house pushing back even democrats one of the administration's closest ally was on short list for running mate felt the need to quickly respond. >> well, i think president biden will decide what he wants to say. it is certainly not words i would choose. i think it is important that we remain focused on the contrast between kamala harris and donald

trump and not attacking supporters of either candidate. >> missing in the white house clarifications any sort of apology to the millions of americ americans supported trump including those who attended the madison square garden rally. >> what they've done is taken somebody that has nothing to do with the party, has nothing to do with us and said something and try to make a big deal. >> this comes after remember last week president biden said he wanted trump to be locked up. that also needed to be cleaned up from the white house. last night biden did not join harris on the ellipse and there is no plans that we're aware of for biden to join harris on the campaign trail, although the president continues to say that he will continue to go to battleground states like pennsylvania and fight for harris. >> harris: oh my goodness. i have no doubt there is a fight going on. i have no doubt. i don't know if it's the one he thinks. i'm sure her campaign today is

spending time on this thinking wish we didn't have to. all right. thank you. i want to play biden's comments one additional time for everybody can listen for themselves fully knowing what the white house did with an apostrophe to try to make it different. here it is. >> just the other day a speaker at his rally called puerto rico a floating arm of garbage. let me tell you something, i don't know the puerto rican that i know or puerto rico owe and my home state of delaware they're good, decent honorable people. the only garbage i see floating out there is his supporters. >> harris: in "politico", no matter where you put the appear appear -- apostrophe. kellyanne conway, fox news contributor former senior counselor to president trump and host of here is the deal with

kellyanne on fox nation. great to have you in "focus." first of all, because you've been in the white house, what do you think of the cleanup of this? how is that going? >> not well at all. this is not a distraction for harris but a reflection of what she believes, too. she has been peddling a lot of hate and vitriol for years. it's not as if she, hillary and the obamas are out there routinely and with a certain fever pitch attacking people because of their political opinions. this started with senator obama running in 2008. people clinging to their guns and god and bibles and their religion and they say it with this dripping sarcastic elitist cast to it. stop insulting those of us who call it garbage saying we don't know where the put the apostrophe. without biden there would be no vice president harris.

she spent 30 minutes saying donald trump's name 24 time. if you want to be president harris, kamala harris, tell us what your vision is and make us feel optimistic and uplifted that you are steady and ready and have what it takes to make sure everyday life is more affordable and secure. >> harris: i think it would be basic. why is your closing argument about somebody else when she admits in the middle of that speech last night, i know a lot of you don't know who i am even though i've been vice president for 3 1/2 years. make up the difference tonight as much as you can but we learned more about what she thinks about trump. quickly, we have heard the election cycle gee, the vice presidential candidate with her, tim walz likening supporters to nazis. this is nomenclature that's in their playbook. >> the incumbent democratic senate candidates upset today fighting for political lives in

wisconsin, michigan, ohio, pennsylvania, nevada and arizona, open seat. with the democrats slightly ahead? they'll be asked do you agree that donald trump's voters are garbage and karrie lake and sam brown and -- they haven't been saying much about kamala to begin with. a lot of them trying to bear hug donald trump. the senatorial committee did a smart thing and pulled all the past comments from the democratic senators sounding like tim walz. john tester who is a goner now in montana has called trump supporters racist. he has said -- they are always putting us down. this is how trump got elected in the first place. forgotten man and woman talking about manufacturing and trade but the system that looks down on you because you don't have a certain degree from a certain ivy league university. you don't wear a certain clothes, you don't live in a certain zip code. this is sort of the non-college educated versus college educated election to begin with.

>> harris: kamala harris was making her closing argument before trump rallied supporters in pennsylvania. if joe biden wanted to do some damage he certainly had some things going on where it would do some damage. the harris campaign billed her speech as optimistic. hard to know whose version of optimism this is. >> donald trump has spent a decade trying to keep the american people divided and afraid of each other. that is who he is. donald trump has told us his priorities for a second term. donald trump, donald trump, donald trump. we know what donald trump has in mind. more chaos, more division, and policies that help those at the very top and hurt everyone else. i offer a different path. and i ask for your vote.

>> harris: and then queue the egg timer saying the difference between her and biden is she wouldn't have called half the country garbage. you have to figure out for yourself what resonates. she may have reinforced donald trump's claim about her campaign during one hour yesterday. >> she is running on a campaign of immoralization and really a campaign of destruction. but really, perhaps more than anything else, it is a campaign of hate and campaign of absolute hate. >> harris: polls show the race is in a dead heat nationally. kamala harris's dwindling to a single point lead within the margin of error. real clear politics average shows the two are also neck-and-neck in the states which matter most. another poll finding men breaking for trump, women for

kamala harris. nikki haley said this to bret baier. >> in is not a time for them to get overly masculine. 53% of the electorate are women. women will vote. they care about how they are being talked to and they care about the issues. >> harris: this is why we did an all women town hall because we make up as women the largest group of registered and active voters. we get that. men get called low intensity. will it hold true this time? >> a double gender gap this time. 99% of the gap we've been talking about republicans challenge with women voters. kamala has a big problem with men voters as well as democrats. when michelle obama talked about chiding and scolding men, by the way, we stand up talking about our husbands, partners,

brothers, sons, co-workers. we can't talk about division based on gender. i take issue with nikki haley in one way. i that i donald trump tried to have a message for all voter. we beat hillary clinton on the precipice, majority of voters were female. how? you trust them to hear your message of no new wars, border security, economic wherewithal and the like. but also it is that women tend to hear things a little bit differently. if it really mattered that their first woman president is enough to grab your vote, she would be succeeding president hillary clinton and way ahead of trump. the issue i would say is that this is 16th consecutive presidential election where women are the majority of the vote. hillary beat trump by 13 points but made up the deficits among different groups of women.

white women and women without college degrees. i want to say one thing. trump had the og statement on november 9th at 3:00 a.m. when he won. he said i will be the president for all americans including those of you who didn't vote for me and said there are more than just a few of you. i watched him take the sharpie and change the speech to include that. he has said this from the beginning. lots of presidential candidates say it. they are on the record of calling us deplorable, irredeemable. overly religious, guns in our hand. joe biden two years ago mega maga extremist, the latest insult. it's when they get caught and now garbage. if donald trump will be held to account for some comedian's poor taste joke in madison square garden kamala will be held to account with what the president is saying. >> harris: they are feeling it and six days away. >> six days away.

i hope a week from today i'm hoping the only harris i'm talking about is harris faulkner. >> harris: the harris campaign continues to roll out the red carpet for celebrities at campaign events. some wonder the impact of the most elite americans on voters. early voting numbers are rolling it. eric trump with this. >> republicans are actually winning the early vote in new jersey right now. my father asked republicans to do one thing. get out and vote early. vote early, vote early and they've done that. gone to the polls in record numbers. >> harris: some people say they believe early voting numbers are suggesting trump has an edge. what this could mean for down-ballot races. that's important in the swing states. who will be in the house and who will be in the senate? stay close. newday to pay off credit card debt that's been piling up. many were shocked to learn they've been paying 22% on their credit card balances. and if payments were late, as much as 30%.

(♪) >> harris: americans are understanding the assignment. more than 52 million voters

already in early votes by mail and in person. those ballots cast either way. republicans and democrats are neck-and-neck in early voting numbers. battleground states are seeing huge turn-outs so far. georgia's secretary of state said this. >> georgia voters are smashing through every voting record with more than 3 million for in-person early voting turnout. which is unprecedented in georgia history. if you look back in time on day 16 for early voting, in 2018 we had 1.3 million. 2020 we had 2.1 million. 2022. 1.7 million and gives you an idea where we are today. record turnout. >> harris: republicans and early voting have a lead in the key swing state of nevada. it has them hopeful up and down the ballot. senate, house, they want to know

who will be in those chambers for the next president. it is important. cnn's political director said this. >> we asked folks did you already vote. people in arizona say they already voted and getting close to 50% in nevada. in arizona 53% for harris, 44 percent pes for trump. nevada donald trump is winning the early vote right now. those that tell us they voted 52% to 46%. >> harris: power panel go. david avella and david hicks, great to see you both. fred, you and i were together in person in georgia on the first day of early voting for my all-women's town hall. it has only ramped up since then. i said voters got the assignment and they understand it at this point, get out and vote. >> absolutely. the early voting turnout in

georgia has been phenomenal as we just heard is breaking all records. when you look at who is voting it is really interesting. skewing younger, fairly diverse and in the metro area where we were a couple of weeks ago. this is amazing. i think we'll break all voting records not early voting but also next tuesday. >> harris: what i love about this is everybody as you said, fred, republicans, though, this has never really been their thing, david. it is their thing now. you see people and numbers popping up for registered republicans talking about it themselves early vote in person, blah, blah, blah, what do you make of it? >> you think about nevada, arizona, and north carolina where the actual number of ballots cast is more for republicans than it is democrats. let's talk about nevada for a second. donald trump is doing one thing that vice president harris is not, which is going into a state

that has been reliably for the democrats. we haven't won nevada since 2004. he has put a state reliably for the democrats into play and there is not a single reliably republican state that the vice president can now say she is competitive in. you have nevada along with wisconsin and pennsylvania and north carolina all states that going into election day you had hillary clinton leading in the polls, you had joe biden leading in the polls and now you have donald trump leading in the polls. why is that, harris? you look at the president's coalition, president trump's coalition and you see him improving. he is doing better with non-educated voters and better with men voters and better with minority voters. that's why he is positioned to win. >> harris: let's get to this. it is a "wall street journal" headline with nikki haley has made her peace with donald trump. not all of her supporters have. it reads harris is aggressively

courting haley supporters. political action committee called pivot pac financing haley voters for harris is spending $4 million on digital ads to encourage suburban republicans and independents in wisconsin, michigan, pennsylvania, to support harris. nikki haley said her choice is clear. here it is. >> i am choosing policy over personality. that is what i think we have to do to move america forward. when it comes to policies, living our life from an economy, having immigration under control and being energy dominant and getting national security those things affect every american family and we need to be voting on policy, not personality. >> harris: she got 14 1/2 million votes in the primary even if a fraction of those people are in battleground states that would matter, this matters if the party is coalescing. >> it absolutely matters. unlike what david said the reality is democrats have only

won north carolina and georgia once in the last three decades or so. kamala harris is competitive in both of those states. i think part of that is because there are a number of disaffected republicans and what happened in 2020 here in georgia. i think now we can call them nikki haley voters or call them chris christie voters. >> harris: you heard david talk about the disaffected democrats that trump is going after. they both have this. a thought on that, fred. >> that's why this race is close. disaffected people on both sides. what we see in early voting numbers and there was a release this morning about it. on the republican side you are seeing people who normally vote on election day vote early, on the democratic side you are seeing low prop pensty voters. there is more democratic votes out there to be had. >> harris: if some of them as we talked about are black men and they are still not in the camp for her, statistically speaking in the next six days we have to see how much those make a

difference. low propensity voters. last thought. >> the vice president has to find new members of her coalition. while donald trump has expanded his coalition, non-college educated voters among black and hispanic voters. the vice president isn't doing as good as joe biden did. it will be a problem for her. >> harris: it is an issue after today with his latest insult to republican voters and trump supporters for her having to clean that up and distance herself from him. it makes it complicated if he did better than you are doing. great to see you. vice president kamala harris dismissing claims she is slipping in support from black voters. what david avella was talking about. poll after poll shows that's exact will i what's happening. when it comes to courting the black vote, kamala harris says -- >> joy comeeth in the morning.

the path may seem hard, the work may seem heavy but joy comes in the morning. >> harris: her critics are saying she is whipping out an accent to pander to a particular group. gianno caldwell next. (man) look at this silly little sailboat... these men of means with their silver spoons, eating up the financial favors of the 1%. what would become of them when they discover robinhood gold allows others to earn

their very liberal rates on idle cash, unlimited deposit bonuses and handsome retirement matching? they would descend into chaos. merciless chaos.

being a student is - very stressful. challenging.

but it's even harder when half of the school is just broken acs. the ceiling in math class leaks all over your desk. the drip. drip. drip. in california, 38-percent of students go to schools that fail to meet minimum health standards. prop 2 will fund repairs at local schools. get rid of toxic mold. make sure bathrooms work. and fix leaky ceilings. and all the money goes to local schools. for real. yes on prop 2. repair local schools.

>> harris: all right. it is time to walk those closing arguments around the country and so both candidates are pitching it to battleground states. they are courting an important voting bloc in all of this that could swing the election. we've been talking about black voters, particularly black men. in the state of georgia, that critical group is lower than past years. mark meredith is in athens, georgia. mark. >> good morning to you. we're seeing early turnout break records here in georgia more than 3 million people voting early in the state. we're also seeing black voters trail white voters in terms of early turnout. a lot of questions how the vice president's support may compare to president biden's in the blom community compared to four years ago. yesterday here in northeast georgia we were there as black civil engagement groups got out the vote going community to community door noing trying to encourage people to make sure

their voices are heard. >> you have to make sure that black people turn out. i think black people will turn out in record numbers anyway. whether or not they vote early or vote later we are in competition with our white voters. >> in a new interview the vice president is simply shrugging off the suggestion about black men. >> black men in particular who are at the rallies have recently been saying to me don't you listen to that and they have to stop with all that noise. we support you. >> but just yesterday we met a man here in athens that did not vote for trump in either 2016 or 2020 but says this time around he is voting for trump because of the economy. >> the cost of groceries, just the cost of just -- just living is just ridiculous now.

i haven't heard any of them say what they would do about it. when trump was president it was -- you could survive. >> the economy still top of mind for so many voter. the vice president will be back in georgia before election day. >> harris: the gentleman you were speaking with. had he early voted or plans to vote on election day, did you ask? >> he had already early voted. sitting on his porch as we were following this group and i was stunned at his answers. he was so clear he would have thought it would be a democratic voter but because of the economy he was going to vote for trump this cycle. he was just outside. >> harris: here is kamala harris earlier this week trying to appeal to black voters on former nfl player shannon sharp's podcast. critics had some trouble with this. >> what we have to help people understand don't think you are in donald trump's club.

you are not. he is not going to be thinking about you. you think he is having you over for dinner? >> harris: gianno caldwell. critics are saying there might have been an accent and pandering there. look, you and i don't speak for all black people. from your one black man's opinion, what did you see when you watched that interview? >> well, what it looks like to me is kamala harris has become a walking, talking snl skit. the fact she is continuing to change these accents, you better think, you are ebb? or this joy thing she is doing as of late when the economy hasn't been a joyous occasion for many people throughout her entire term, this act of relateability is getting her in trouble. this is something many people find to be uncomfortable. the same similar inauthenticity that hillary clinton had in

2016. >> harris: this has been compared to that when she went into that preacher mode with her voice. it was -- a lot of people said how insulting it was to people in the clergy. what was she actually trying to do? when you talk with black voters particularly black men, what are they telling you about the different accents and what i just called a verbal flex >> black men largely at this point -- i love the piece right there, mark's piece. they are not accepting the democratic party's quote, unquote, giveaways anymore and not looking at this as an opportunity to build the community. they have had decades upon decades of black voter support and we haven't seen things get better. harris, i have been a conservative for almost two decades now and i can tell you there has never been a time in my life where i've seen so many african-americans across the country talk to them personally

saying you know what? i'm voting for donald trump. they aren't afraid to say it. it used to be you had to whisper and you may not even have told your family. >> harris: will they vote? >> i believe they will. i was talking to a friend of mine from atlanta, georgia, a black woman telling me she does not want kamala harris to win and her rationale for that is she wants the democratic party to stop, her quote, playing in black people's faces and not delivering on promises or providing tangibles, getting out here and making racial comments every election cycle but yet and still you are left with an empty bag of nothing. they provided nothing. now democrats are really upset because donald trump is targeting these voters who have been left out in the cold by their party for decades. there has never been a person that they can go to and say on the republican side for many of them that they can say you know what i may not agree with him but i like what his policies can do for my life. i've seen it for four years

prior. that's the distinction we're seeing here, harris. >> harris: that is an important distinction you make. critics are calling out harris for serving up more word salad than you can shake a fork at. more from just that one recent podcast. >> what i'm talking about doing right now is based on longstanding work. it is not new. but as president of the united states, part of why it is important is it is a new approach to that job that brings my commitment to the work i am talking about into being. you cannot ever be burdened by other people's limited ability to understand who you are. don't let their limited ability burden you about your own ability, you know? we also have the honor and the duty of excelling in every way possible, being able to see what is possible and not be burdened by other people's limited

ability to see the same. >> harris: burdened. gianno mentioned her wide range of accents and inflection. >> we'll do it again in 2024. you better thank a union member for sick leave and for paid leave, you better thank a union member for vacation time. hello to all my brothers and sisters. and my -- [laughter] it's good to see so many friends. i love you back. weeping may endure for a night, but joy cometh in the morning. >> harris: gianno. >> like i said, walking talking snl skit with kamala harris. you better thank a union member. i hope we thank union members in michigan for helping us bring

this thing home. we have had enough of kamala harris as a leader in the white house. >> harris: did you watch her last night? >> no, i actually didn't see that. >> harris: that's where some of that clip when we were watching, these are from recent days. these are not from months ago or anything like that. that would matter because 52 million people have already voted and they may have done that based on some of what they have already seen. but you pointed out that the game is vote. everybody. >> no choice but to do it. >> harris: thank you for being in "focus." we have had breaking news this hour with the virginia situation, the u.s. supreme court keeping those non-citizens off the rolls per virginia law in the commonwealth. thank you for watching. "outnumbered" is after the break. out of control. get a newday 100 va cash out loan at lower mortgage rates to pay off those high rate car loans.

i hear that music and my feet just start tapping. my grandchildren, they're sixth generation of dancers. it's what my family is all about. i thought i knew a lot about our irish roots. i was surprised to learn so many more things from ancestry. 1892. oh and here's the boat they came over on. there was a julie healy, a mary healy, this is all their names? yes, yes. wow. this is our last chance to help save thousands of holocaust survivors who are suffering in the former soviet union today. the needs that these forgotten jews have are something beyond anything you can imagine. have you eaten this morning? i ate the carrot, so i ate half of it yesterday. and this is what she ate in two days, one carrot.

please pray for me! the international fellowship of christians and jews began this ministry to help elderly jews living in horrible poverty around the world. we urgently need your gift of $25 now to help provide one survival food box with all of the foods they critically need for their diet for one month. when you call right now, your gift's impact will be doubled to help save lives. i have a tremendous love for israel and the jewish people. this is why i'm partnering with the fellowship. it gives me a way to authentically bless jewish people in need around the world. i believe in god, but i sometimes feel maybe he forgot me. perhaps you could tell my story and i will find a matching soul that would understand.

i face hunger again. please don't delay. call, scan, or go online now to help rush one survival food box to a holocaust survivor. when you call right now, your gift's impact will be doubled to help save lives. this is what god wants from us. just feed the hungry. if you hear god's voice, i'm asking you to act now. do it when it's on your heart. i pray that they'll know in their final months that they're not alone.
