[laughter] reporter: absence the idea of some mothership coming down to save humanity, we will have to come to grips with this, that we will see more of the serious disasters, many of which are exacerbated by climate change and that this is part of our new reality going forward. anchor: on that point, we are seeing more data between the connection between climate change and these destructive forms -- storms. what do scientists believe is the linkage? reporter: this is a field of science called attribution science. skeptics of this idea, including the florida governor, who was saying why do you always have to talk about climate change, we have always had hurricanes? that is true. we have always had these things.

but science is showing that climate change can make these words. for one example, when a hurricane enters the gulf of mexico or the atlantic ocean, it hits abnormally warm ocean waters, which is driven by human driven climate change. back and make those storms more intense and accelerate more quickly. that is a proven fact. there are two new recent studies. both show that this recent hurricane was, by a significant percentage, dropping more rain, blowing more wind, and causing more damage to the residence of florida. this is an increasing focus a scientist. we are now seeing that all of the people around me are paying the price for that. anchor: shifting our focus event, we have been reporting all week on the swarm of disinformation and disinformation around these disasters. now there are reports of extremist groups showing up to help with the recovery. reporter: that is right.

in addition to as we have reported this torrent of misinformation and lies about fema and the federal response and who created these hurricanes , as if this was something people can do, the wall street journal reported that a group name it -- known as patriot front was sending groups of its members down here to do recovery work. they were filming themselves marching around helping people clean their yards and posting these videos to say, where is your government? where are your local leaders? we are they here -- the people here to protect you, not them. we spoke to someone at the institute for strategic dialogue. he told us that groups like this take these fissure an hour society and try to sow this trusted division and choose every opportunity they can to try to get americans turned against each other.

supreme court decision overturning roe v. wade made abortion access a top political issue across america and now in the race for the white house. our correspondent has been covering both candidates positions on reproductive rights. she joins me now. good to see you. start with the national landscape. where do the bans and restrictions currently stand nationwide? reporter: 13 states total have abortion bans with very few exceptions. after that, there are four states that have bans at six weeks and three other states ban abortions after 12 or 15 weeks. the majority of the states are in the deep south, including swing states like georgia and north carolina. anchor: where does vice president harris stand on this issue? reporter: she became the face of the -- abortion rights for the biden administration.

she was the first sitting vice president believed to visit a abortion clinic. when it comes to her position, this is what she wants to do. she wants to restore the federal right for abortion that was first established under roe v. wade. she wants to protest -- protect abortion access. and she supports ending the filibuster to pass federal productions -- protections for abortion. it is highly unlikely that vice president harris would have enough votes in the senate to end the filibuster and pass legislation like that. >> there are many people here watching who rightly have made a decision that they do not believe in abortion. the point i am making is not about changing your mind on what is right for you or your family. it is simply saying the government should not be making this decision. reporter: harris has made

abortion rights one of the biggest issues in her campaign this year and is hoping that it helps her in a number of swing states. anchor: that is where vice president harris stands. what about her opponent, former president trump? . in 2016, he said you have to ban abortion. let's dive into his record and current position. in 2016 he said there has to be some kind of punishment for women who get abortions. in 20 16 he ran on appointing supreme court justices to overturn roe. since thing, he said he would veto a 15 week national abortion ban despite the fact that multiple republicans in the antiabortion movement support a national ban. donald trump would say the would allow states to restrict abortion access. he has also said that states with bans have a right to monitor pregnancies and prosecute violations. he is also open to restricting abortion pill access.

projects 2020 five calls for a nationwide abortion man. we mention that because so many people who wrote that and are calling for that served in the first trump administration and are likely to serve in a second trump administration. at a recent rally, donald trump also suggested that women will not worry anymore about abortions if he is elected again. >> you will be protected and i will be your protective. women will be happy, healthy, confident, and free. you will no longer be thinking about abortion. that is all they talk about, abortion. reporter: we should also note past comments made by jd vance. in 2022 when he was running for the senate, he said he would like abortion to be illegal nationally. he said he was sympathetic to a national ban on interstate travel for women who are seeking

to get the procedure. anchor: as you well know, you have covered ivf, which is also been in the spotlight the cycle after the alabama supreme court decision that said frozen embryos should be considered children. where did the candidates stand on this? reporter: vice president harris backs a senate bill that protects people with access to in vitro fertilization nationwide. her most prominent surrogate on this has been her running mate, governor tim walz of minnesota, because he and his wife used fertility treatments when they were trying to have their first child. the alabama court decision for republicans on the fence. -- defense. trump says if elected he would offer full coverage. he would require insurance companies to pay for it. but he is not provided details on how exactly he would pay for a lot of that.

senate republicans have blocked a bill that would protect ivf nationwide. anchor: vice president harris is clearly running on this is a big issue. how important is this issue? >> six states consider abortion on the ballot. all six states, including red states like kansas and kentucky, decided to protect abortion rights. this year, abortion referendums are on the ballot in 10 states this fall, and looting arizona and nevada. in our most recent poll, show that 45% of voters say it is a factor for them in this election. anchor: great reporting as

always. we will continue to delve into this. right now you can watch all of these conversations online. ♪ anchor: barack obama hits the campaign trail as the race for the white house enters its final week. and donald trump unleashes falseness about hurricanes. let's turn to our guests. great to see you both. the polls show a race that is as tight as ever.

democrats are doing what democrats do best, worrying that the early momentum for harris might have stalled. has there been a vibe shift? >> her momentum has stalled. she was going up. then she seemed to plateau. now if you look at the polling in the last week, trump is doing slightly better. a lot better in the sunbelt swing states. in the industrial midwest. but a very slight. when i look at the results right now, of course it could all change. the decision to not pick josh schapiro could have been a major mistake. and she made a mistake this week by not breaking with joe biden on a lot of issues.

28% of people think the country is on the wrong track. it seems like an elementary active politics to say i am my own person. anchor: how do you see it? >> the race today is the same. it is close. it was always going to be close. the fact that democrats are panicking, i am not shocked. i am annoyed. you can do all the panicking you want, but it will come true if folks do not get out and vote. i don't know if i agree that there has been a by shift and she has plateaued. i think what is happening is reality is setting in. it is going to be close. this idea that she made a mistake in not picking governor shapiro, i have to disagree with

that strenuously. i think tim walz is a terrific candidate. what she needs to be doing in this campaign is continuing to go out there and do what she has done all week this week. talk to people on the various shows and podcasts. tell them who she is. what she is four. what i found interesting about all the interviews, they were terrific. i was thinking of your column in that watching her in this interview with a comedian, i felt like you actually got to see the real harris personality. and also what she stands for. what she believes in. in a manner that is more comfortable. anchor: i will ask you about your column.

you wrote that she had an incredible first act but the question is now can she do more? what might that look like? >> i consulted the experts. i looked at screenwriters. they say what drama is is an obstacle. you want the main character to have a desire for something very specific and there has to be an obstacle in their way. i agree, she has begun to show, this is what i want. i don't think that has fully come out. one thing that haunts me from campaigns past is a disease that a lot of politicians fall into where they hold back. the stakes are incredibly high. they do the game planning instead of the work.

mitt romney held back. he never really lit the crowd pull him up. the same with hillary clinton. i think harris is doing a lot better on that front as of this week. anchor: barack obama will spend the final weeks before election day campaigning prayers. he appeared at a rally yesterday. before that, he had a stop at a campaign office. he admonished black men who he said are hesitant to vote for harris. >> we have not yet seen the energy and turnout in all of our neighborhoods and communities. i also want to say that that

seems to be the case. when i hear about this stuff, i start feeling like we don't have enough of a sense of what is at stake here. these are not ordinary times or ordinary elections. anchor: i am coming to you on this. democrats see this as unfair scapegoating. you could have nearly every black man vote in the swing states for donald trump and it would not be enough to make a difference. he should focus on white men who are breaking for donald trump. or white women. how do you see this? >> we are talking about a black man who is a former president and for whom this is a very personal issue. i watch the entire 15 minute remarks.

you have to put this in context. he is talking to african-american campaign workers and volunteers. anybody you are talking to at a barbershop or in your house who is coming with that kind of attitude, you have to ask him, how can that be? convincing those folks and their families and their communities that there is a reason. people might not devote because they don't think the system has worked for them.

the change that people want does not come quickly. he walked through what happened during his presidency and other presidencies. folks who feel like the former president was lecturing them or talking down to them or singling them out, i understand where that is coming from. but that is not what he is doing. president obama rarely speaks out, but when he does, it is with intention. he hopes that his words will be galvanizing to those campaign workers. motivating them to get out from the pole -- to the panchor: i ao

2012. when bill clinton had to make the argument for barack obama when his campaign hit a rough patch. the question is is that appeal separate and transferable these days to harris? >> not really. i think it helps. they are like baseball players. they are superstars. they are really good at what they do. it's not bad to have a superstar on your team. anchor: as we wrap up our conversation, florida and parts of the southeast are struggling to recover from hurricanes.

there has been a torrent of misinformation. marjorie taylor greene said the federal government can control the weather. how do you see this moment? >> let's just call it what it is. it is lies. lies that are putting people's lives at risk. lies that are tearing apart communities. being told that your government is not coming to help you. your government is giving away

money to other people. republicans you know better or not speaking out to say this is not right. this is wrong. president trump, please stop doing what you are doing. i give them credit for saying the administration has been very helpful. i want republicans to be more direct in saying who is feeding the disinformation and in holding that person accountable. anchor: is there any way back from this when we have this ecosystem that exists where people actually believe the federal government can control the weather? something as nonsensical as that? >> beach party has to police their own side. republicans have failed big time. a larger question for me is that

there is an advantage to have no conscience. you can succeed in america both in business and politics if you have no conception of right and wrong. that is a disturbing lesson for a generation. anchor: thank you so much. >> thanks. ♪ anchor: english soccer is booming in the u.s. while a little threat to other sports, millions of americans are increasingly rabid fans of english clubs. almost half of the teams in the top division are now american owned, including ipswich town, which is have a fairytale rise. we sent our special
