7:12 am
anthony fauci have said they are cautiously optimistic a safe and viable vaccine could be available by the end of the year. but earlier this month, president donald trump offered an even shorter timeline suggesting a vaccine could be ready around election day. >> it wouldn't hurt, but i'm not -- i'm doing it not for the ant itt because i want to save a lot of lives. >> reporter: dr. hahn says the fda could reach that target under an emergency use authorization program before a phase three trial is completely finished. but there are concerns rushing a vaccine could compromise its safety and exacerbate the fears of those who already don't trust vaccines. over the weekend, parents gathered outside the massachusetts statehouse in boston to protest a new flu vaccine mandate for all schoolchildren. >> enforcing us to inject something into your child we don't agree with. >> there are concerns about the risks of going at warp speed. do you think an emergency use authorization might increase those concerns? >> so i think, again, this will
7:13 am
have to be driven by those science and data. we've been very clear about what we expect to see in the data that come to us. >> when i asked dr. hahn about the emergency use authorization for hydroxychloroquine being rescinded, he compared the process to a doctor making decisions in the emergency room. after the patient's admitted to the hospital as more information emerges, those decisions can be revised. tony? >> very interesting. we want the science, not the politics to lead. jon lapook, thank you very much. let's sneak in another political story. the democratic primary in massachusetts is getting nationwide attention in part because of one famous name on the ballot. that wouldecongressman joe e kennedy is trying to unseat senator ed markey. markey is in the lead. but it's close. ed o'keefe is covering campaign 2020 for us. good morning to you. what's on the line in this senate race? >> in one way, family history because never before in
7:14 am
massachusetts has a member of the kennedy family lost a political campaign. whoever wins tonight is expected to easily win the senate seat in november. but this is quickly becoming one of the nastiest political races ofuay when a kennedy runs for office in massachusetts, their victory is all but assured. but not this year. congressman joe kennedy's challenging senator ed markey in a bitterly personal contest. >> it's just not true -- >> a bit of time -- >> let him respond. >> the 39-year-old, a grandson of robert f. kennedy, believes the 74-year-old senator isn't doing enough to represent the state. >> he missed over 50% of the covid-19, a ic health and e of economic catastrophe. >> kennedy only started recently playing up his family legacy. >> it's a fight in his blood. >> also questioning the record on civil rights and votes for things like the iraq war. markey, who has been in politics for more than 40 years, has gone

7:16 am
progressive that we all deserve and need in the senate. >> reporter: so nearly 1 million people have already cast ballots in this race, a sign of the big interest. and given the pandemic, we'll see how long it takes to count the absentee ballots. want to reinforce the family history here again. the kennedy family in massachusetts has gone perfect score, 26 wins, 0 losses in democratic primaries. so big pressure on joe kennedy tonight to deliver. if he loses, there's still a chance that a member of the extended family will be serving in congress next year. that'sec y, ws the wife kennedy's father's cousin patrick -- if you follow that -- >> is trying for an open seat in new jersey. >> very curious how this one turns out. we're honoring the life of longtime georgetown hoyas basketball coach john thompson jr. this morning. thompson famously became the first black head coach to win an ncaa championship in 1984.

actually fuel tensions there. >> the president says's going because he thinks his visit might inspire enthusiasm but it's not entirely clear what he means by that. >> some folks we spoke with welcome the president and say that he can help heal and unify this community. others are concerns he'll enflame a tense situation and this will be nothing more than a photo- photo-op. >> dr. hahn was already facing criticism and his latest comments have renewed concerns his agency is being politicized, something he flatly denials. nearly 1 million people already cast ballots in this race, a sign of the big interest. the kennedy family in massachusetts has gone perfect score, 26 wins, zero losses in democratic primaries so big pressure on joe kennedy tonight to deliver. ♪ grandpa and grandma chang are viral on tiktok. ♪ footloose >> the 78-year-old couple began learning new dancing during quarantine as a way to stay

8:03 am
trump's visit may raise tensions in kenosha, given the president's recent rhetoric about law and order. the protests in kenosha over the police shooting of jacob blake largely calmed down but that could change as president trump arrives to meet with law enforcement and tour businesses that have been damaged. yesterday president trump and his opponent, former vice president joe biden faced off in a war of words about the unrest, some of it violent, across the country. >> for months joe biden has given moral aid and comfort to the vandals, repeating the monstrous lie that these were peaceful protests. they're not peaceful protests. that's anarchy. >> this president long ago forfeited any moral leadership in this country. he can't stop the violence because for years he's fomented it. >> reporter: last night, the president's interview on fox news took a strange turn when he claimed with no evidence that a group of mystery people are really controlling the former vice president. take a listen. >> who do you think is pulling
8:04 am
biden's strings? is it former obama people? >> people that you've never heard of, people that are in the dark shadows, people that are -- >> what does that mean? sounds like conspiracy theory, dark shadows. what is that? >> people that you haven't heard of, people on the streets that are controlling the streets. >> reporter: the president also mentioned a group of thugs in dark uniforms on a plane heading for the republican national convention. now we have asked the white house for an explanation of what the president is talking about here, but so far, they have not provided one. anthony? >> ben, thank you very much. while many local leaders ask president trump not to come to kenos kenosha, we spoke with several residents to see how they feel about the president's visit. >> he has, in my opinion, done nothing but created an atmosphere of division and hatred and distrust amongst all races. i just don't see a good reason for him to c here atl, ever, but eecially not now.
8:05 am
>> i think that it's wonderful. i think it shows that he cares about us, he cares about america, he cares about kenosha and the devastation that we have faced here in the light of all of these riots. >> i hope he sees the truth, the reality of what's really going on out here and not just what's going on in his head or what he thinks, you know, what's going on, he could see what the people of us african-americans what we're going through every day. >> during his visit, the president will not meet with jacob blake or his family. he says blake's family wanted lawyers present and the president did not any that wthis appropriate. one of the leading contenders for a coronavirus vaccine has begun testing. they started dosing its first volunteers in florida on friday. 31 people have received either the vaccine or a placebo. dr. jon lapook has been covering
8:06 am
the search for this covid vaccine. good morning to you again, jon lapook. what happens in phase three of this trial? >> good morning, yet again, gayle. during the third and final phase the vaccine is tested for safety and how effective at reducing or blocking covid-19 symptoms before getting fda approval for public use. i spoke exclusively with the first american in the oxford astrazeneca trial. >> look at the amount of lives we lost and i don't want this to keep occurring. >> reporter: 23-year-old jacob serran ois the first volunteer dosed in the u.s. with the oxford astrazeneca vaccine or placebo. c'st sev familyembers be parthe save matter the cost. >> i know there was a risk, it's a trial, but i'd reared have us one step closer, no matter what it takes. >> reporter: he was dosed on friday at headlands gem research in lake worth, florida. >> the immune response is very
8:07 am
encouraging. >> reporter: dr. larry bush is an infectious disease doctor and lead investigator for the trial. he said he's optimistic the vook seen is effective. >> in the phase one between trials not only do you get robust, neutralizing antibodies to fight the coronavirus, you get a t cell response to fight off the cells that become infected. that's crucial in treating infections. >> reporter: oxford university has been conducting phase three trials in the united kingdom, brazil and south africa. in earlier phases, there was no evidence the vaccine causes serious reactions. headlands research says their focus is on enrolling members of the african-american and the latinex community disproportionately affected by the pandemic. >> the numbers are pointing to those groups of people becoming infected at a higher rate and therefore that's a group that would highly benefit from vaccination. >> astrazeneca plans to enroll up to 50,000 participants
8:08 am
globally, and is planning to start this year. gayle? >> we hope so, dr. lapook. what is the significance of enrolling participants from all around the world for this? >> well, a couple of things, gayle. you want to have a diverse population of people who are being tested but also you want to be in areas where there are a lot of cases. the more cases there are in an area, the more quickly you'll find out whether the vaccine works, whether there's a difference between giving the pla scebo and the vaccine. if you goive in an area where there are no cases there is no difference between people get the placebo and the vaccine. we don't know when phase three trials give us significant results. it depends how effective the vaccine is and how many cases there are tested. >> we want a vaccine but more than anything want it to be safe. is this tested on kids and how safe is it for children, if it is being tested on kids? >> gayle, kids are not being
8:09 am
tested yet, and the definition of a kid is anybody under 18, but what happens is that once there's some signal of efficacy of effectiveness of the vaccine in the adult trials they can do safety trials in children and then if those go well, they can actually look at the efficacy trials those result in adults as a bridge to getting a vaccine approved to children. there are a lot of steps in the way of that but that's basically what's been explained about the process. no children are given it right now but in the future, that could happen. >> thank you, jon lapook. are you feeling extra cute today? i heard from reliable sources, it's your birthday! it's your birthday! >> thank you, i'm extra -- >> ♪ hey shorty, it's your birthday ♪ ? the words of 50 cent what are you going to do? >> i'm going to continue honing that cuteness factor. >> very good, jon lapook. you do it very well.

called "does it hurt to ask" using the power of questions to communicate, connect and persuade. in at any time former prosecutor draws on the lessons he learned in congress and also the courtroom. trey gowdy joins us now. good morning. a very timely book, sir. in part because it's deals with partisanship which so divides us right now. thapartisan the one of the events in kenosha, wisconsin. the president plans to travel this later today. local officials said please don't come. teen governor said please don't come. do you agree with the president's decision to go irregardless? >> i do. i mean i respect the fact that people view it differently. but when you're the president you're the president of everyone, including people who don't like you, including people who don't vote for you. you know, i get that the governor doesn't want the president to come but the president actually carried wisconsin. he actually carried the county

that he's visitling. what i hope he does when he gets there is exactly what julia jackson asked for. prayers for her son. unity among people of good conscience and to me most importantly and answer legitimate questions what happened and what the legal consequences should be. >> that's a good point there about unity and answers. it brings up the he question of whether you think the president's language so far has been focused enough on unity, i'm referring to the fact that his supporters are great patriots acting in self-defense even when they are tied to violence or accused of murder and the demonstrators aren't peaceful protesters, they are l. does the president need to do a better job starting today with bringing therytogether? >> i to wort we elosid to kevn mccarthy as an enemy of the state. it's fine to disagree with kevin. he's not an enemy of the state.

there are other democrats who called for unrest in the streets. republican rhetoric, i'm not crazy about. i think we can all -- words matter. and we can aldo a better job of communicating. the only division i care about in this country is not black or white or republican or democrat. people of good conscience versus people of not of good conscience. with respect to the shooting in wisconsin there's a murder charge. you're presumed innocent. i get that. i was in the courtroom 30 years. but there's a murder charge. we'll let the jury decide if it's self-defense. i personally would not weigh in on that. law enforcement charged him with murder. that's the charge that stands. >> yeah. so it sound like you are calling on the president to use more unifying language today in wisconsin? >> not just the president. i think words matter. i think, even a lowly member of the house, when you call for unrest in the street, i think part o wha frustrate pe i

rhetoric, call it out on both side. just don't pick on one side or the other. call it out on both sides. >> yeah. i think there's some frustration with both sides talk. but i want to get to the book. there's a waterfall anecdote in there between you and senator tim scott in which senator scott asks you since the book is about questions how many times were you pulled over. for tim scott it was seven, for you it was one. how did you change your thinking about racism in the law enforcement world >> we're all prisoners of our experience. i was a prosecutor for 20 years. i've only been stopped by the cops when i destoefrderved to b stopped. tim scott who looks as if he would pose a threat to absolutely no one and when a he said, i want the cops to know that i am not a threat to them so they are not a threat to me. it changed -- i've never been

black a day in my life. i have no idea what that feels like. the own lie thing i can do is borrow the eyes of a man like tim scott and try to look at the world through his eyes. so i can't be what i'm not. but i can be intentional about trying to see the world through the eyes of an african-american man and, yes, it did change me. but i'll say this about tim scott. as we walk through that process you'll never him refer to a routine traffic stop any more because he also borrowed the eyes of cops and what they view when they are stopping a car or making a 911 response. >> i want to sneaking in one more question because it's about how the republican party has changed and not necessarily you changing with it. i am curious it's not the same party you grew up with. you're no longer in 20? >> yes. >> all right now.

solidarity with protests against racism and police brutality and this all comes just before the scheduled start of the nfl season on september 10th. one of the biggest transitions will be at the new england patriots. they will take the field without legendary quarterback tom brady who led the franchise to six super bowl championships. a new book "the dynasty" details the patriots incredible climb to the top six times. it's published bysimon and schuster. author jeff benedict joins me now. there's a lot in this book. first with a bit avenof newsyq. the commissioner now support players kneeling during the
8:46 am
national anthem. has the league turned a corner? >> good morning, tony. that's actually a subject that i cover a lot in "the dynasty." i think what the commissioner said is right. the league has turned a corner. a lot has changed in the last three years but especially in the last three months. the way the commissioner is handling it has been great. >> good evening, nashville. >> what's interesting about this book it's not just for sports fans it's for people interested in building a team, building something great. robert kraft has definitely done that. but he does it in a way that might southern simple at first, he treats players as an extended family. it sound obvious but how did that help him turn the team into a dynasty? >> that's a great question. it really starts with a relationship that robert kraft formed withdrew bledsoe who was the quarterback when he bought the team in 1994. he and drew had a father-son
8:47 am
relationship. what was compelling was when bill belichick came along and hired tom brady, he didn't interfere with that decision. he wanted to. bledsoe wanted him to. he allowed belichick the latitude to make that decision and brady perform eed incredibl well. over the last 20 years i think kraft-brady relationship is the most unique one in sports because it is so close and key to keeping brady in foxborough for 20 years. >> i want to ask you another relationship. you liken the relationship between head coach bill belichick and brady to a lyndon and mccarthy situation. what was the dynamic between the
8:48 am
two? >> well, i think that comparison fits because lyndon and mccarthy were the two greatest rock stars of all time. they created great music. at the end there was a lot of pressure in that relationship ere's parallels. because basically with belichick and brady, when belichick puts on a head set and brady puts on a helmet they have a telepathy that you don't see anywhere else not just nfl but sports. they performed like that 30 years. they made magic on the field. it didn't matter that they didn't have dinner together every weekend or become really close friend. they had something else. i think what kraft noticed very early on was the magic between them. the question for the owner is how do yee them together for 20 years? i really think if you're trying to understand the beauty of the dynasty, it's in that triangular relationship between those three

men. >> real quickly, jeff, really, really quickly, tom brady is 43 this season. he's now with the tampa bay bucks. will be at the same level that he's been in recent years? >> i would never underestimate tom brady. people have been doing that for the last 12 years with him. he's 43. oldest player in the league. he's as fit as someone who is in their 20s. fun to watch. all right. that's a prediction, jeff benedict. the book "the die nasanaly die t
