good evening and welcome to "politicsnation." tonight's lead, one of the nation's truly greatest leaders lies in repose. the coffin of john lewis

temporarily enshrined in his birth place in alabama, later to cross the edmund pettus bridge in selma. and as democrats mourn the conscienco conscienco conscience of their party, president donald trump threatens a dragnet of law enforcement. threatening new york, chicago, philadelphia, pretty much anywhere there are black people and white democrats. of course that kind of federal presence was absent today in louisville, kentucky. three people were struck by gunfire when police say a gun belonging to a black militia member went off as the group was squaring off with a white

militia in the middle of protests over the breonna taylor shooting bu shooting. but, no, instead it's seattle bracing for the next wave of the president's intervention. i'll talk to the mayor as she plans to take the brutalization of her city to the courts. the nation's cities also continue to grapple with another threat worsened by this white house. as domestic cases of coronavirus topped 4 million this week with deaths nearing 200,000. the contrast is stark as ever between the administration's response to the virus where federal action has been undermined by trump himself and the national response largely left to the states. and the president's war on cities where mayors call f--

mayors' call for local control are being shouted down in the name of law hand order. joining me, the mayor of seattl seattle. madam mayor, it seems contradictory the president told the local and state authorities to handle the coronavirus but he wants to come in your local city and handle what he deems as out of control protesters, though we've not seen that and seems to have taken the exact opposite view when it comes to people that have exercised their free speech. >> reverend sharpton, you're exactly right. i think this is a dangerous political trend for a president who is growing more desperate. america needed his help. we still need his help with the coronavirus, but at every juncture, he makes decisions to make it worse and to not give us

what we need to fight this virusat the same time when people protest in the streets, he is militarizing federal law enforcement and literally invading cities. we're seeing the shredding of democracy before our eyes. >> you threatened to go to court. what would be the basis of your court challenge. >> i spoke with the active secretary of homeland security. he assured me they would not invade the streets of seattle and would call me if that changed. we've seen what has happened in portland that is escalating things, so we are prepared if necessary with the city of seattle and state law enforcement and the state government and attorney general, if we need to, we will go to court to make sure that they cannot usurp our powers of our

police. >> we've seen people go through the streets of charlottesville, example, screaming "jews will not replace us" and fighting those anti-confederate protesters and the president called them good people on both sides. what is the difference here? we've not seen violence here. we've seen for the most part all of the george floyd protest nationwide for weeks now peaceful. so how do you call one group of people and equate them with nonviolent protesters even as we've seen one person run a car and kill a young lady. are we looking at raw bigotry here or raw politics or a combination of both?

>> i think we are seeing a president who's decided he want to politicize these protests. he won't admit the systemic racism of america. instead he wants to create division, he wants to create a law-and-order platform. if you see what he's done, he has escalated the violence in portland. portland protests had almost got to the point where they were less and starting to work on solutions. the actions of this president has escalated violence. that's what we see here. we want to move forward to makele changmake the changes we need to make. but the president has a different agenda in mind and i think it's very dangerous. you know, the department of homeland security was formed after 9/11 in order to protect americans and this president is

using it to fight americans. i think that should frighten everyone. >> using it to fight americans. i think that's well put. and to use them to fight americans that are standing up for american principles, saying that we want to see equal rights, we want to see equal distribution of services. and thatsomething that america has always claimed, why would the department of homeland security being coming in to incite that into a dangerous situation? this would be considered outrageous if it was anywhere else in the world by the

american public it would be considered outrageous. >> you're so right. i was the former united states attorney under president obama. so i was the chief federal law enforcement officer. and what we're seeing today is absolutely unprecedented for federal law enforcement. the full combat fatigues night after night using tear gas, arresting people, spiriting them into unmarked vans that is not the work of a law enforcement that's trying to keep the public safe. it's the work trying to intimidate the public. and, as the president said before, dominate the streets. that's unamerican. we need to move beyond that. we do not want to see that in seattle. we're hoping very much that it doesn't. i've asked everybody this weekend to please protest peacefully so that we don't give them the excuse to act like they have in portland and so that we can move beyond this period of time. protests are critical to our country. the top of your hour seeing john lewis lie in state should remind us all that we have so far to

go. he will cross that bridge for the last time, but we as a country have yet to begin to cross that bridge. that's where we should be focused. how do we make our country better, not how do we sow division. >> and you're correct. the weekend that we start a series of remembering john lewis, it reminds us of how far we are yet to go as he goes over that bridge tomorrow for the last time, a bridge still named after a klansman. we still have a long way to go. thank you seattle mayor durkan. in week the philadelphia district attorney called president donald trump, quote, a wanna be fascist and said he will charge federal agents sent to the white house if they break the law. joining me now is d.a. larry

krasner. some would say calling him a wanna-be fascist is a very strong statement. how do you back it up? >> well, i think i might have hurt his feelings by say waing wanna-be if you want to know the truth. he spends half his time telling us that vladimir putin is a good, strong man. it's entirely consistent with his comments about banging the heads of suspect on the top of a car door frame. he is blatantly trying to convey the notion that he's an ath authoritarian leader and we're going to provoke unrest and then

we're going to blame the people we have affronted with shooting them by supposedly nonlethal weapons. he's provoking the situation so that he can say look at these people who areprotesting, they are animals. that is the fascist play book. he's a fascist. >> when we hear him saying they're going to destroy your suburbs, invade your suburbs, a blatant fear tactic to what many are calling suburban white women, even in an era when if we get factual, gentrification is happening where a lot of suburbanites are in the city.

but the fact is he's really playing to the race card here from a white supremacist mentality that he thinks is still dominant among people in the suburbs and has said overwhelmingly to polls they support the black lives matter movement. >> politically i think this is a massive miscalculation. it may be the part of his here, his hope is that he's going to detenti desensitize people to this military response in the streets. there's been questions about whether his intention to, a, steal the election coming up in a hundred days, and, b, if he can't steal it, it's stealing it without leaving office. i hope not. i don't think the military will put up with that at all. there's going to be 200 million people to escort him out of office if he manages in any way to corrupt the military so that he can come up with a scenario not to leave. among those 200 million americans escorting him out of

office, there's going to be an awful lot of women from the suburbs, white women, black women, all kinds of women from all over. he is going to go. he is going to go. and he needs to get used to that idea. >> what do you as the d.a. in philadelphia and your own town or city and what do you suggest others do to prepare to make sure there is no interference or, as you have just named it, stealing the vote in november, no the only for trump but for any of those forces that want to play games with undermining people's right to vote? >> well, first, we have to register to vote, we have to at every level protect the right to vote. there are going to be so many efforts to prevent the vote because the truth is trump is afraid of it. and then we have to be very, very clear that this country is united, that we are going to have a democratic transition, that the person who wins this election is going to be the

person who becomes the president. you know, we have been here before. my dad volunteered along with most of my uncles to serve in world war ii, to fight fascism and they did that as so many others did so we would not have an american president who thinks it is okay to brutalize the population, to run up and down with the military force, with tear gas, materials and things that are not even permitted in warfare and every one of us in the united states has an obligation to uphold the obligation. i have a sworn obligation to uphold the constitution and we're going to do that. >> you have called for the release of prisoners during the coronavirus epidemic that we're dealing with. explain and where are we in your judgment in those release of prisoners? clearly many of us in the civil rights community agreed with it. i even called president donald trump on this issue early in the pandemic and he did return the

call and made no commitment. and i've not seen evidence that there's been the type of release everywhere that we would want. how do you deal with this, where do you gauge it now and why did you make the call in the first place? >> reverend, i think in almost every major city chief prosecutors have had to deal with the reality that the equation on whether somebody should be in custody from crime, it's also from a lethal pandemic in. in philadelphia that meant that we are currently in our county custody system down to 4,000 people, which is the lowest level of incarceration in the city since 1985. every bit of data i have seen so far indicates it is not posing an additional threat to public safety in terms of crime but that it is lowering the possibility of our county jails being a hot spot. at one point approximately nine

out of ten hot spots in the country were custodial facilities. the states have not responded as quickly as many of the cities. as you might expect, with president donald trump, there's a lot of words and not a lot of action when it comes to release from federal facilities. this is an incredibly morning moment in the history in our country because we are the most incarcerated country in the world because these wrong-headed policies got us here, the same policies that are comfortable with a president who acts like a wanna be fascist, who has white supremacists at his rallies who says there are good people on both sides, who says nascar shouldn't have gotten rid of the confederate flag, he's comfortable with the confederate flag, it all comes from the same place and this country is ready to go in a different direction. >> thank you philadelphia district attorney larry krasner. joining me is a fordham

university professor of political science and republican strategist rick tyler. his new book is out called "still right," makes the case for conservative. let me go to you first, professor greer. we are looking at the fact that the house of representatives passed the heroes act to help americans survive fansinanciall and the senate has not come with any action to make this possible and we heard majority leader mitch mcconnell say it may be weeks before they come up with a bill while people are on the brink of real financial disaster. what do you say to this and what do you say to those people sitting here days away from wondering how they're going to

make ends meet? >> i want to extend my sincerest condolences to you for the loss of your friends last week. i agree can d.a.krasner is we have to register to vote. we're seeing so many senate races that are going to be competitive in november, places we weren't really thinking about before. lindsey graham is in a tight race, mitch mcconnell could be in a tight race, arizona is up for grabs, hopefully georgia will come through. it's really imperative americans come up with a voting plan, make sure they are registered to str vote. if we look at organizations like fair fight that are trying to help not just black people but americans make sure that they have their proper right to vote, i think that is of the utmost importance because the president

has already said that he wants foreign interference to help him win this election and there's a certain level of calm that republicans have when it comes to november 3rd where we know they're going to try and disenfranchise americans. so we have to put pressure on our senators to hopefully make sure we get democrats in at all levels, make sure that joe biden is successful but also making sure that the house remains democratic and that the senate flips over from republican to democrat because that's the only way that this country is going to make some progress and actually save the democracy since we're on a precipice right now. >> professor greer is right. the polls clearly indicate in states that used to be a sure lock for them, the polls are saying that they are in serious trouble, even if they don't have the moral back bohne bone to st

for americans, don't they realize they're jeopardizing their own political careers? >> i never thought i would hear a democrat say we need to add to the democratic majority and elect a democrat to the white house but that's exactly what needs to happen. this republican party has been absent from leadership and following donald trump who now suddenly decides he's cancelling the republican convention because he's suddenly concerned with the american health is just baloney. he has very little. in your last segment, you were talking about the economy. none of this had to happen. you look in southeast asia, cambodia, laos, taiwan, south

korea and japan combined, that's 300 million people. we've had over 150,000 deaths in this country. they've had combined deaths of 1,500 and they're reopening. australia is reopen. iceland, can you go there today if you're covid free, new zealand is reopened, italy is e reopening. why? because they had competent leadership to manage a pandemic there's no reason why the wealthiest country in the world with the most resources available could not have conquered this virus and they didn't. that's why we're in the pit right now and we're not going to get out of it before november. >> professor glereer, when you hear as i raised to an earlier guest on this show, when you hear the president talking about they're going to invade the suburbs, is this just not george wallace type of politics, type

of fear mongering, fryitrying t incite a white fear backbash vo -- backlash vote and will it in your judgment work? >> rev, this is an old tactic. the president can't run on, as rich has said, he's handled the coronavirus abysmally so he can't talk about the health of the nation. the economy is tanking because of his poor handling of the coronavirus so we can't talk about successes with the economy. so he's gone back to the old racist american play book of the boogie man, the blacks are going to come in from the cities and rob your houses and rape your women. that's what he's trying to set up as a frame. it's not working now because he has secret police tear gassing people of the suburbs. we know there are quite a few

weak-leaning democrats and republicans who are actually looking at this president and realizing that the racist rhetoric is, a, too much coupled with the incompetence and we have parents who don't know what's going on with their children's education and they're realizing this is not a strategy. so this bagoogie man idea is false. in this country voting is secret i. we do know there are going to be lots of people who say that the president's rhetoric is too racist or white nationalists or white supremacists are very unhappy with the direction of the nation. however, wooefr see've seen tim time again white americans will go to the voting booth and vote the opposite what they're saying out loud. i hope the foundation we're laying with black lives matter, with coalition movement, with people in the daca movement,

people who have skin in the game can educate the people in their communities and families so when they do go to vote on november 3rd, they can remember they're not just voting for themselves, they're voting for the safety of the american democracy. >> and they're witnessing history when rick tyler says he hopes the democrats. i'm writing this date down. thank you, christina greer and rick tyler. president donald trump is finding yet another way to marginalize immigrants in this country, the census. my memo to the president after the break. but first, my colleague richard lui with today's top new stories. richard? i'm richard lui in new york with a news update for you. at this hour there are more than 4.1 million confirmed cases. friday more than 73,000 new infections were reported just on that day. the number of deaths topping 1,000 for the fourth day in a row. that total now moving closer to

150,000. also new, a cdc report that shows patients with mild cases of the virus can have lingering health complications. as many as one third of patients not sick enough to be hospitalized do not recover quickly from the virus. doctors say symptoms can last for weeks or even months. >> we now have the first hurricane of the season, hurricane hanna is heading toward texas. the biggest danger is expected to be flooding across south texas into northeast mexico. >> and services for john lewis were held this morning in his alabama hometown. hundreds of people gathered in troy paying their respects. celebrations of lewis's life continue this weekend and into next week. lewis will lie in state at the capital rotunda monday and tuesday and his body returns to georgia where he served as a congressman for over 30 years. final funeral services will be held on thursday. i'm richard lui.

we need to say to those like the president that we defend these statues. this is not what makes america great. at makes america great.

for this weeks's memb's mem trump, i want to talk about the census. mr. president, i know you've never been one to do a lot of reading. it's been four years and you clearly have not red the constitution that you took an oath to uphold. i want to talk about your recent member to to exclude undocumented immigrants from the census account, the one 20 states are suing you to stop. it's blatantly unconstitutional. let's start with a little history lesson, shall we? despite your attempt to change the founding document with a memo, the census is specifically directed in the constitution as the way we apportion congressional representation. article i section 2 reads quote, the whole number of free

persons, including those bound to service for a term of year, three-fifths of all other persons. the language is probably too archaic for you so let me simplify it. the founding fathers are talking about people who looked like me, who were enslaved for the color of their skin. they are to be counted in the census but only as 3/5 of a person and of course they were not allowed to vote. the bloody several war that partially corrected this injustice were instigated by traders to this union but men who somehow managed to be less racist than you, mr. president, at least in a certain way they were able to concede that even the most oppressed in hab tants of this country counted for at least flthree fifths of a amerin

and you're working to say they don't count at all. it specifies it should count the whole number of persons. that's always been your problem, mr. president, your racism ensures you are incapable as seeing brown and black folks as actual people with rights that must be respected. so let's make this history more personal. apart from your daddy's money, the single biggest foundation of your career is the continued discrimination against people of color, starting with the federal lawsuit brought against you in 1973 for housing discrimination and while you can't seem to keep your story straight on any other issues, you're remarkably consistent on trying to keep black folks from accessing fair housing as evidenced by your latest gambit in rolling back anti-segregation policies in american suburbs. and just as you made it clear nearly 50 years ago that you didn't want black people in your

buildings, your actions now make it clear that you don't want brown folks in this country. even your complete ineptitude in the face of the coronavirus has racist flavors. around the time the data made it clear that black and brown people were baring the brunt of the pandemic, you lost interest in fighting it or even in keeping the american people informed because you're incapable of caring about the lives of people who don't look like you. you have left thousands of americans to die. but black and brown folks are used to fighting for our lives in america. we've been doing it since before the constitution you are so eager to flout was even signed. we spent centuries fighting for our liberties, our lively hoods and our votes. take note of that last one, mr. president. people of color, those very

blacks and hispanics to whom you would deny personhood are going to show up by the millions to kick you out of the white house come november. be right back. me november. be right back. okay... okay! safe drivers save 40%!!! guys! guys! check it out. safe drivers save 40%!!! safe drivers save 40%! safe drivers save 40%!!! that's safe drivers save 40%. it is, that's safe drivers save 40%. - he's right there. - it's him! he's here. he's right here. - hi! - hi. hey! - that's totally him. - it's him! that's totally the guy. safe drivers do save 40%. click or call for a quote today. safe drivers do save 40%. you're first. first to respond. first to put others' lives before your own. and in an emergency, you need a network that puts you first. that connects you to technology to each other and to other agencies. built with and for first responders. firstnet.

welcome back. the president is officially running on a platform of segregation in the suburbs. no need to adjust your television, it is still 2020, but donald trump is trying to run for reelection on a platform of race baiting and fear. his latest move to is scrap the fair housing rule which was enacted under president obama with the intent of reducing segregation in american suburbs. the mood has been widely decried as racist among fair housing activists, including the executive director of the national housing law project who said the move is, quote, as close as you can get to an

endorsement of racial segregation without saying the words. joining me now is the man who oversaw the announcement of the affh in 2015, julian castro, former urban and housing development secretary under president obama. secretary castro, how do you view this attempt by the president to undermine this? >> this is about stoking racial politician, racial resentment. i don't think there's ever been a bigger white identity politician over the last 50 years than donald trump. and it's very convenient that just a couple months before his reelection he pulls affirmatively fair housing, which i doubt he understand. it was a rule implemented in 2015 by the obama

administration, pulls that out and use it is to fear monger, especially with white voters because he knows he's lost a lot of ground in the sub urbs to jo biden, trying to use it to stoke racial resentment and tension to get people back on his side. there's evidence among a tremendous amount of citizens on his part, and his belief that people will be swayed by the stoking of racial anxiety and this painting of black and brown families as ruining your neighborhood, as many people have pointed out and this is a very old argument, it's an old scare tactic but i can tell you this, what this really is about for america is do you believe in equal opportunity in this country or not? if you believe in equal

opportunity, then you believe that towns and cities out there in our country should treat people the same. and we should make an investment in ensuring that no matter the color of your skin, when you go looking for an apartment or you go looking for a house, that you're not denied that opportunity just because of who you are. and some people might not believe this, but it's true, that in the year 2020, that kind of discrimination still goes on in many, many transactions in this country. >> absolutely. now, you tweeted that the affirmatively fair housing rool was inspired by the civil rights movement. it caught my eye being in civil rights all my life and particularly when this week two of the icons in that movement that predated me and went through my time into now, c.t.

vivian and john lewis are being laid to rest, this is an assault on civil rights. >> it absolutely is. all of the work that the civil rights movement, that its leaders made, including presidents like lbj, to make suhr that the fa sure that the fair housing act, which was passed right after the passing of martin luther king jr. and to make sure that it came to fruition and all that followed that to give life to the civil rights act, the fair voting rights act, just because it was all done doesn't mean it was done well. and we finally in 2015 got this unfinished piece of business as it related to housing done and these guys come in a couple years later and put it on ice

and say no, no, we're going to go backward to take us back to 1950 or choose your year when people could still be discriminated against because of the color of their skin. it's one more reason why i think so many people have had enough of this administration and they want somebody in the oval office who is actually committed to equal opportunity and the best aspirations of the civil rights movement. >> you spoke to senator kamala harris this week about the gridlock in congress regarding the eviction moratorium and other coronavirus concerns. take a listen. >> there is no both sides here. the democrats have passed something in the house, you and others on the senate side have done great work and are pushing for this kind of relief to happen, but what we have is a senate leader and his colleagues that are unwilling to actually, you know, provide for the american people. >> is there anything that democrats can do to get republicans to do the right

thing, or is this completely in voters' hands come november? >> you know, look, i think including senator harris, her a. she's introduced her own legislation and is push fog gin get the heroes's act passed for people who are freaking out because they don't have money for the rent and the moratoriums are elapsing. you have mitch mcconnell and his buddies who are so out of touch with americans, that when people are in crisis, by one estimate over 28 million people could face eviction by the end of october. that's how dire the situation could be. i think almost unprecedented in our nation's history, and the democrats have done their part in the house passing the heroes

act, which is a great first step, but that is sitting on the doorstep of mitch mcconnell and his republican colleagues and they haven't lifted a finger and i hope the voters make him pay for that in november. >> julian castro, thank you for being with us. >> now, 100 days out, things are looking worse for the president donald trump reelection. msnbc found trump behind in the same six crucial swing states he won back in 2016. and while former vice president joe biden's north carolina lead is within the margin of error, it still represents a major swing as trump carried these states by nearly four points in 2016. a biden surge is unexpected in

many places, it raised some interesting pass abilities for down ballot candidates. joining me is one such candidate, yvonne louis holly, who is running to be lieutenant governor of north carolina. miss holly, thank you for being with us. let me start right there. with the state of north carolina in polls showing that joe biden could possibly win north carolina, a state that trump carried by four points in 2016, one, do you feel as you campaign around the state for lieutenant governor that these polls are right, that there's been some switch around in terms of the voting of north carolinians and, second, will this help you as the democratic candidate for lieutenant governor? >> well, thank you, reverend al, for letting me be on today. yes, i do see a change and a wave. north carolina is a purple

state, and it's always been purple. it always has voted its hope and its fear historically. with a state where there at some point we had jesse helms as a senator at the same time we had terry sanford. we've had republican governors and democratic lieutenant governors. we currently have a democratic governor and a republican lieutenant governor. and as i go around the state now, the people who have aligned themselves to trump and that divisive fear mongering seems to be more prevalent now than ever and it's just going to be very distinctive difference in the selection for this race. and all of the races in north carolina. >> now, you mentioned the difference in the current governor being democrat and lieutenant governor republican. the lieutenant governor is a republican who is suing the democratic governor over the coronavirus restrictions.

he's also running for governor. if you end up with a split ticket again, would you be able to work with a republican? >> i have had a history of working across the aisle in the north carolina general assembly in my past eight years. i will work with anybody, but i don't need permission to do some positive things in north carolina. and if elected as a lieutenant governor even in a republican governorship, i will work very hard to implement as many changes and to help the people of north carolina that i can. >> there's many of us that are concerned about people trying to steal the election and suppress voters, particularly in the black community. what do you say about that and what measures are being put to protect the voters in north carolina as you seek their votes and their turnout? >> well, there's a major effort to get out the vote, to do

mail-in ballots where we can, to protect our people who choose to go to early voting and to the polls to vote. and we want to do it with integrity, and we're taking it across the state and working very hard to get the word out how to do it so your ballot doesn't get thrown out, how to do it so that you can go down there and you will be safe in voting in the state of north carolina. a lot of people are pushing early voting, to go down there when it's not as crowded and given that opportunity to really cast their ballots in this process. >> you mentioned jesse helms. it would be somewhat a real message as we talk about the rise of black women in politics, many of us even hoping to see a black woman on the national ticket, to see in the state of jesse helms a black woman as lieutenant governor, that would be one way of realizing a lot of the efforts of john lewis and

c.t. vivian. >> yes, i would like to say that c.t. vivian spent a time here at raleigh, i knew him growing up for a while whihe was john lewi. and i carry that legacy. i want to carry it on and work very hard for the state of north carolina. and electing an african american female lieutenant governor are do so much more for north carolina and the future of this state. >> yvonne lewis holley, thank you very much for being with us. make sure you catch jonathan capehart's interview with former ambassador to the united nations and former national security adviser to the president obama, susan rice. you don't want to miss that interview. we'll be right back. up next, my final thoughts.

this week marks the 30-year anniversary of the americans with disabilities act. it was an act that protected and stood for the civil rights of other abled people. i'm told by many activists that specifically deal as a priority in that area that the lack of enforcement that is happening under this administration is alarming and we should focus attention in this 30th year. having a law is one goal that we should all strive for in every area that is needed. but it is weakened when it is not enforced and when it is not monitored to make sure that enforcement is real to uphold the law. i should not be surprised when i'm told there is concern is when we have a president that

mocked a disabled reporter in the middle of his campaign as if it was a joke that he was other abled. we as americans, we as people of all races in america show the lowest of values and character when we marginalize and discriminate against any people for any reason, and certainly those that are other abled called disabled are among those that of all races should be protected in their rights upheld by everyone in law enforcement. that does it for me. thanks for watching. i'll see you back here tomorrow at 5:00 p.m. eastern. up next, my colleague alicia menendez picks up our news coverage. this is my body of proof. proof i can fight moderate to severe rheumatoid arthritis. proof i can fight psoriatic arthritis... ...with humira. proof of less joint pain...
