russia for a full accounting of the novichok program. guys, we have seen novichok before two years ago here in the uk. the same nerve agent that russia used to poison a former spy skripal. guys. >> thank you, molly hunter in london. it is a new hour. first up, fallout after the president denies disparaging remarks over soldiers. >> if these statements are true, the president should humbly apologize to every gold star mother and father and every blue star family that he's denigrated and insulted. who the heck does he think he is? >> where do they stand? a series of polls giving a fresh look at the presidential race

with 59 days to go. bracing for another covid spike. could it cause another surge in cases? >> i think there is a big problem with people caring only about themselves and not other people. just because you are not suppressed doesn't mean others aren't. >> good morning. i'm garrett haake. >> i'm covid-ri coffin. officers doused protesters with tear gas around police headquarters. police fired pepper balls into the crowds. fireworks were shot off and a bus stop set on fire. you can hear chanting there in rochester, new york. crowds marched and chanted

danieldan prude's name. >> the 41-year-old man stopped breathing during the c confrontation back in march. he died after being taken off life support a week later. >> the rochester mayor suspended seven police officers with pay. prude's death intensified the issue over officers responding to mental health crises. and ahead of the kentucky derby, the location has been highlighted as a symbol of history of inequality and segregation. holding the derby today is insensitive and a distraction for racial justice. >> gabe gutierrez is there for us now. gabe, last night was the 100th night of protest for breonna taylor. it has been 176 days since she was shot and killed by police. give us a sense of what it is

like on the ground there now. >> reporter: good morning. cori and garrett. this is how it is like here on the ground. much of downtown louisville is boarded up. you mentioned 100 days of protests. 100 days. activists and advocates are frustrated and furious that the kentucky derby is happening. it is supposed to happen several months ago, but postponed because of the pandemic. now as you mentioned, thousands of protesters are expected here in louisville later today. could be counter protesters as well. because of that, kentucky state police and local authorities are here with a heavy security presence. armored vehicles and fencing to funnel protesters and try to prevent clashes that residents fear could escalate around the kentucky derby. there have been a lot of developments in the case over the past several weeks.

there were reports and breonna taylor's family's lawyer said they were trying to get her ex-boyfriend to try to implicate her in a drug ring. the family is furious about that. many protesters here are demanding the officers be charged. one has been fired and none face criminal charges so far. a lot of anticipation over what happens later today during the running of the kentucky derby. iconic american institution will be facing a lot of protests this afternoon and evening. back to you. >> gabe, can you put more context on this? the kentucky derby is an institution, but on the other hand, 100 straight days of protests. this story never left the news. what is the divide like in louisville? what is the feeling like? give us more context of what it is like in that city right now. >> reporter: certainly. it is a very devastated city. you can see so much of the city is boarded up. a genuine fear of when this will

end and what will happen if these officers do not face any charges. yes, garrett, you mentioned 170 something days since it happened in march since the raid happened where breonna taylor was shot. her boyfriend at the time thought it was an intruder and it was actually police. getting a no-knock warrant to go in the apartment. the police say they have announced themselves. the boy disputes that. there have been protesters out for the last 100 days. at times it has turned violent and deadly. since then, peaceful protests during the day and there has been conflict during the night as other parts of the country. garrett, the breonna taylor case rose to prominence in the aftermath of george floyd's death. breonna taylor's death happened several months before. her name, along with george

floyd and now jacob blake say rally cry for social justice around the country. there is a great sense of frustration it has taken so long for a decision to come in this case about any potential charges for the officers. this is another flash point tonight on the kentucky derby. we will have to see if it remains peaceful. >> gabe gutierrez for us live in louisville. we will watch. gabe, stay safe. to the growing backlash over the comments of fallen and injured troops. the president pushing back against allegations he referred to killed and injured soldiers as suckers and losers. >> we have kelly o'donell nell the white house. >> reporter: we have john kelly, because he was present during

2018 trip to paris with the president. that is why there was discussion of the veterans. the reports attribute behind the scenes officials without naming john kelly. john kelly has not come forward to dispute or make a comment which raised the question about what did he know and was he a witness to that. the president was asked about this during a briefing and john kelly was a four-star marine general and had a son, robert, who died in iraq and was visi d visited. john kelly in the report and visiting the grave with the president of his son. why would they volunteer to serve is the comment the president made. the president denies the story and now this story is taking on

another dimension. will someone come forward and put their name to the account? president trump was critical about his former chief of staff. here is what he had to say. >> i know john kelly. he was with me. he didn't do a good job. no temperament. he was petered out. he was exhausted. this man was totally exhausted. he wasn't able to function. we have many witnesses. it is a total -- it's a total -- just a continuation of the witch hunt so it can hopefully affect the election. >> reporter: so you have the president criticizing kelly and criticizing kelly's performance.

the president is beicritical ofm at time the president is saying disparaging things about the service members. the president not taking the opportunity there to at least acknowledge kelly's service. the president pushing back and so has his wife melania on tw s twitter. several officials were around the president and they don't believe he said these things. part of it makes it politically potent for the president is other occasions and settings, publicly with cameras on, he has been critical of the service of john mccain or gold star families like the khans. that is why there is a line connecting the comments behind-the-scenes. the president denies it. there are multiple reports about it making it a controversial story. >> something tells me we will hear more today.

kelly o'donnell, thank you. >> let's turn to joe biden. he is tearing into the president about the comments. >> now to prevent the president from clinching a second term. we have mariana sotomayor. how does the team plan to put together the electoral votes here? >> reporter: as the campaign manager told reporters yesterday, they are looking at front loading resources. putting as much money and much staff on the ground and also just contacting through the phones and working as much as possible to ensure that voters not only turn out early, but also are able to mail-in ballots efficiently. hand holding voters from the moment they say i want to vote

early or i want to mail in my ballot or how can i safely vote on election day? outlining those things to them. of course, something important to know is that they announced huge fund raising haul in august. over $364 million which they say gives them enough confidence to be able to not only devote more money to battleground states, but own the air waves. we saw that earlier this week with just one day alone where they were able to put out five new national ads targeting groups they had already identified and they believe they will do well. also what they really see in the next couple weeks is trying to not gain any defection or erosion from the base and hoping to expand and keep it so they don't lose voters that voted for president trump and now swinging

more toward biden. one thing to note is the fact that the chief messenger himself biden was on the trail this week week.than we have seen him that is something we should expect to see more of in the days to come. one thing to note is also the change of the candidate's voice. the way he has attacked the president directly. take a listen and note that tone change and how he responded yesterday to the reports that the president had disparaged soldiers. >> if what is written in the article is true, it is disgusting. let me be clear. when my son was assistant u.s. attorney and volunteered to go to kosovo while the war was going on as a civilian, he wasn't a sucker. if these statements are true,

the president should humbly apologize to every gold star mother and father and every blue star family that he denigrated and insulted. who the heck does he think he is? i ask you all the rhetorical question. how do you feel? how would you feel if you had a kid in afghanistan right now? you know in your heart and you know in your gut. it's deplorable. >> reporter: now the campaign is saying that is not a change in strategy. that is organic joe biden reacting angrily trying to hold his temper. asked by a reporter why he is doing that, especially with weeks to go until the presidential debate against trump. joe biden simply said this is how a president should behave. restrain your emotions. >> he has to react.

marianna sotomayor, thank you. >> joining us now is the correspondent for "usa today." i have not seen the white house jump into action into a news story like this. is the white house caught off guard or did they know it was coming and they needed to attack aggressively? >> the white house and trump really came out as you mentioned aggressively and angrily defended the president on friday. we had robert o'brien and kayleigh mcenany strike. we had fox news report on the story. the issue here is that none of the sources have been willing to go on the record. you know, the white house has been able to dismiss it as false

reporting. as kelly noted earlier, the language does fit with the language the president used in the past. specifically his desk pisparagi comments about john mccain and the gold star family in 2016. the context doesn't look good for the president. he has been able to weather a lot of these stories that have come out from former administration officials which aides point to. the thing is the military has been a big part of his administration. we'll have to wait and see if this hurts standing with mechanics of the military and vae investiga veterans. one thing we will see is more of these stories especially with cohen's and woodward's books

coming out. >> is the white house going to strike more or will they draw more attention to deny it? >> i think they take your lead from the president with most things. we have seen him forcefully push back on this. any claim that he has somehow you, you know, undermined members of the military which he clearly holds to a high regard is, you know, ridiculous to him. we will see how they respond based on how the president tweets. >> let's get back to michael cohen's book release on tuesday about the president. cohen spoke with lester holt. here is part of that. >> you think he will win another term? >> donald trump will do anything and everything within which to win. i believe that includes manipulating the ballots. i believe he would even go so far as to start a war in order to prevent himself from being

removed from office. my biggest fear is there will not be a peaceful transition of power in 2020. >> that is quite alarming to hear. what more could we be bracing for coming out of cohen's book, courtney? >> i know. we should expect a lot of explosive allegations. they laid out some of them. michael cohen. we talked to him earlier this week. he said we should all prepare on tuesday for a lot of bombshell claims. the thing is that michael cohen's credibility is not necessarily the best right now and the white house has been able to dismiss him as a disgruntled former employee. >> even though he has served jail time for it. courtney, thank you. coming up, president trump often boasts about all he has done for the military. you might expect to see him ahead in the presidential poll

new fallout today over the explosive reporting from the atlantic. claiming president trump disparaged fallen troops. apparently calling them losers and suckers. >> the president firing back denying the reports calling them fake and a hoax. joining us now is general honore. what was your initial reaction to reading the things the president is accused of saying in the article? >> well, i'm still hopeful it is not the truth. as commander in chief, he has airmen and marines serving the country around the world. they went to bed last night

thinking this is what the commander in chief said? this is political season. those soldiers have to continue to do their mission regardless of the election. it is discouraging because the president audio and video don't match. he said respect the military and went to the pentagon and told the generals they were a bunch of losers. he used the word in addressing one of our recent heroes, senator mccain, after captured and kept in a prison camp for years that he likes his heroes not to be captured. he said disparaging remarks of the khan family who lost their son in the war. he has weaponized words. his audio and video don't match.

he should be building better housing and schools for the department of defense instead of putting it on the border wall. he gives a sense of reflection of why is he doing this? if he loves the veterans and the military, why a proposal to change the medical plan for retirees? then he put that fire out by saying we're not going to do it. last night, on the other idea come out of the pentagon to kill stars and strikes. th stripes. he has been inn consistent in what he says. there are people that support the president. some are friends. some are former friends. i take issue with much of what he does and how he does it. that being said, he is the commander in chief. at this point in time, he has to

win the confidence of the soldiers and families and the veteran community. this is the political season. he has to walk the talk. he has put too many things out there that is inflammatory. the words he said yesterday about one of our great patriots general kelly, who is part of the administration and served diligently to this president and has a lot he could say that would be disparaging toward the president as held his fire. i took great issue when after the news conference yesterday and maybe he said it or made he didn't say it. then he moved to general kelly and the awful things he said about kelly. that was disrespectful. he did not have to say that to protect himself in the political season. >> right. kelly choosing not to respond. joe biden responding to the reports strongly. here is what he said in part.

>> servicemen and women he served with, particularly those who did not come home, were not losers. if these statements are true, the president should humbly apologize to every gold star mother and father and every blue star family that he's denigrated and insulted. >> general, do you agree, does trum trump owe service members an apology? >> i think a lot of people have a lot of questions in their mind because the president is unorthodox. he used words that disrespect everybody from people with disabilities to people with speech impediments. he is brash. it might work in the business world. he is the commander in chief and he needs to act like it. this election will determine by the american people that he probably should move on and go do something else because he

creates too much drama. we don't need all this drama. we have enough problems fighting our enemies as opposed to being in a tiff in the veterans community and those in uniform with the commander in chief. he needs to apologize and he needs to make good on his word that he does respect the military and stop using them as a prop. >> all right. thank you. the number of coronavirus cases is rising in more than half of the u.s. states. >> doctors are worried that labor day weekend trips to the beach and family gatherings will add to the toll. is another big surge likely? li? it sure can. li? really? can it one up breakfast in bed? yeah, for sure. thanks, boys. what about that? uhh, yep! it can? yeah, even that! i would very much like to see that. me too. introducing tide power pods. one up the toughest stains with

they are urging people to wear masks and stay away from people they don't live with. >> and cape may is expected to be busy this weekend. there are concerns that labor day could send covid-19 cases back up. in florida, most beaches well be open this weekend. miami-dade county mayor shade you should proceed with caution. >> morgan cheskey is live with more. how will they handle the flood of travelers there? >> reporter: garrett, good morning. we are here on south beach. they are lohoping people will d to keep the numbers down. they are going back to the fourth of july weekend and pointing to a spike of the covid-19 cases following that holiday. that is why officials are saying let's not have that happen again. we're going to keep the beaches open here and we have $100 fine if you are caught violating the mask policy in place here.

we also have $500 fines going to businesses who exceed the 50% capacity. that is currently in place right now. we are still here in phase one in miami-dade and broward counties here because they see the biggest problems from covid-19. we see leaders all across southern florida reiterating how important this is ahead of the weekend. take a listen. >> you don't want to repeat from memorial day when people got complacent. parties and gatherings and people were not following the rules. infections spiked. >> we can cannot squander the good work we have done to this point to get us to where we are. you have to live with covid for some time. it won't go away tomorrow or next week or next month. it is something we have to live with as humans for the foreseeable future. we must find a way to manage it

well. >> reporter: everyone hoping that it does continue to be managed well. florida is seeing improvement. i should add a few weeks ago in mid-july, the hospitalization numbers were at 9,000 people. today, rather, that number sits at 3,300. the numbers are trending in the right direction. that is why they are hoping people can continue to do the right thing going forward. it only takes another big holiday weekend where people are not doing their part for them to fear the spike. i can say that these beaches will be packed soon enough. there will be code enforcement officers here to remind you to have fun and mask up. >> morgan cheske yoerky, thank . now to the race for the white house. a look at the poll following the

two party convention. >> joe biden leads as low as 7 points to high as 11 points. joining us now is susan del percio. a member of lincoln women. a coalition within the lincoln project and morgan chalafont. how do the numbers compare with the past selection? do you think there is a false sense of security for the biden ca ca camp? >> from what i hear, the biden campaign does not have a false sense of security. what is important to remember about the national polls is that president trump was elected based on state by state. that means the electoral college. the state by state polls are more important. national polls do two things. one, helps set the narrative which means people are hearing

biden is ahead and it is good and reinforces it. it helps with fund raising. there is one other polil i like to throw in that from the military times. it has biden leading 41% to trump's 37%. no republican has ever been elected in recent times without the majority of military and veteran support. >> i want to talk about the battleground states more. morgan, a bunch of polls from fox news. biden, plus nine in arizona. plus eight in wisconsin. plus four in north carolina. pennsylvania, more of a mixed picture. plus eight in one poll. plus four in another. talk about the different strategies as the candidates hone in on these states in particular? >> biden has ramped up his campaign activity going to wisconsin this week.

he has appearances in michigan. trump is traversing the country. he focused on north carolina and trying to drive home the message and trying to tie biden to the left-wing party. >> and as president trump ramps up public safety messaging, he is saying no one would be safe under a biden presidency. there is a poll out showing biden is leading trump 58% to 35% among suburban voters. susan, is this evidence that the president's message is not resonating with the key group he needs? >> it is. because the difference is as trump is trying to do this law and order message. i will tamp down the violence in the big cities. he s he is adding fuel to the fire. suburban voters are looking for

safety. he stoked the flames for political reasons. >> polling shows voters will feel more safe in a biden presidency than trump presidency. the poll is 51% to 45%. saying this is an edge for biden. morgan, does the trump white house and campaign say this strategy is not working and we should try something else or say we are down six and let's keep hammering it. >> i think they have been hammering it every appearance that trump makes. this is the theme of his message. they cast doubt on the polls. it doesn't seem to be changing strategy at all. he is sticking to this. traveling to wisconsin this week and not meeting with the blake family or not talking about the racial protests and racial injustice. he is betting on it. >> this is an interesting prediction. democratic data and firm

hawkfish told axios said president trump would have won an election by a landslide on election night. the model predicting that trump could hold that lead. if 15% of vote by mail ballots had been counted days later once every vote is in, they could see that lead shifting to biden who becomes the winner. what do you make of that is scenario, susan? >> it is good that the message is getting out there and people know things won't be decided on election night. traditionally we say that paper of absentee ballot follow the machines. unless someone has done a great job of absentee ballots which republicans are a great campaign tends to follow. we know because that will be skewed by the amount of absentee ballots coming in and in some

cases 40% or 50% of states voting absentee, we have to wait and see what the results are. in some place in upstate new york, the buffalo area, there was on election day in a primary that half the votes counted had one candidate leading. after the paper, the other candidate won the election. >> there is a very clear delineation between how you democrats are voting versus republicans. susan and morgan, thank you both. president trump has commented about the poisoning about the russian opposition leader. does he blame the kremlin? the president has yet to condemn russia and it nags the question why. russia and it nags the ques why. into a smaller life?

new reports of and reaction to the russian military prove ration are met with silence from president trump. although russia was warned about the violence when the vehicle in syria was rammed. here is what peter alexander learned. >> u.s. forces in syria? >> one of the things we do is respond to forces. we will make sure everywhere we operate, whether operating in a place in close proximity to russians to any other adversary. that the men and women will

protect themselves. >> as that been communicated to the russian government? >> it has been. >> by you? >> it has been communicated at the appropriate level. >> by whom specifically? >> they received a strong message. >> joining us now is catie williams. catie, you have done a ton of reporting on. this you heard the national security adviser's answer. what do you make of that? a strongly worded letter sent to the russians? >> reporter: the military has been communicating with the russians in syria and also about a pair of flight interceptions that have taken place with the russian military jets and american jets in the last week. of course, the question is does that carry the insignia of the united states if the president doesn't say it?

a lot of acgents i talked to sa we have an i mperfect view of te putin mind. we are not always perfect in judging his intent. if you are russia right now, you are looking at the united states and seeing the president who is obviously reluctant and allergic to criticizing publicly putin specifically and really behavior out of moscow in general. you are also seeing an american public clearly with no appetite for military conflict right now. you need to look no further than the fact that bringing troops home from afghanistan was a campaign issue on both the left and right this year. i think if you are moscow, you know, when you think about how you will achieve your national objectives, you can push that line further than you might otherwise think you would be able to when you combine the two dynamics. that is what i hear from the

community. >> to that end, your sources told you there is a spike in the provocative behavior in the russian forces. do we think the timing is related to the russian politics or ours? it has to be related to the ler election. they are testing trump. >> reporter: what i heard from the folks i have been talking to in the military and intelligence community with regard to the incident in syria specifically is that don't always assume that what russia is doing has to do with the united states. they have their own national strategy. they want the united states out of syria so they can go on pursuing their own objectives there and they're in the way. in the absence of being able to force us out of syria, they will take every opportunity to harass us to make it uncomfortable for the united states to operate in syria. one of the ways they have been doing this is the u.s. military and russian military are in regular contact in syria as part

of the deconfliction channel to prevent any misunderstanding or accident of what we saw in the last week. what the russians will do is game that system. they will flood it with requests that are just junk. >> katie, you wrote that the president has a deference to mosc moscow. are you any closer to the answer on what is behind the president's silence? >> reporter: if you ask the president, he would say he is pursuing good relations with all nations. that is what he thinks is in the best interest of the united states. if you ask critics, it is something that putin has it. >> katie bo williams. thank you. we appreciate that. coming up, the nation's first mail-in voting has begun in north carolina. the demand for ballots there is greater than ever. see what election officials are doing to make sure each and
