>> so i thought this was a strong debate for stacey abrams.abortion issue. a lot longer than they've debated on that issue before and it's something that favors abrams, the 2019 bill that was passed, georgia's six week abortion ban is unpopular here in the state. so if abrams can keep the debate in the areas she knows most agree with her, that's where she wants to be. will this move the needle? the question is will this move more georgians to go vote. i think opinions of these candidates are baked in, but abrams was able to tell anyone worried about the abortion issue, that's an issue they agree with her and they can make a difference. she said if i'm a governor we have the votes in the house and senate right now to repeal this bill. that was an important moment for her. we're hearing a lot from republicans around the state about her specific comments on law enforcement, about those sheriffs wanting to take black people off of the streets. republicans are going to hammer her on that. crime is the number two issue across the state, not just met

and weeks out from the rematch of stacey abrams and brian kemp, get abrams response to our interview with kemp. >> 86% of money is coming from around the country. >> we will press her on abortion and her polls this time around. >> stacey: i care about you, that is the difference in me and the current governor. >> the president pardons thousands of americans for marijuana. >> ask what it means for federal and state drug laws and about the timing of the announcements and legal trouble for the president's son. and is a record-setting home run officially the best and should this guy sue? legendary sportscaster jim gray joins us live on "fox news sunday." >> shannon: hello from fox news in washington, the white house has no intelligence a nuclear attack is imminent, but the president's comments have created quite a stir. now a mystery over what caused a truck explosion saturday that severed a key supply line for russia in the war on ukraine. president putin says he plans to hold on to territory he says he's annexed in ukraine. we'll ask mike pompeo about how he would address the escalatio

abrams. hello mr. abrams. >> host: please go ahead bill. i want to ask a question about truth versus lies. when someone you were interviewing is stating an obvious lie and you do not stop him and correctct him, does that make you complicit in the light? quick to make me a bad interviewer. but it depends who you are interviewing, right? if you're going to interview someone who you know is going to be telling a lot of lies you have obviously decided to interview said person. there's only so many lies you can correct. i do try what i do interviews with people,t when they say things thatt i do not think are true to highlight it. when you say wait, wait, wait to hang on for this isn't true. but also if you're interviewing someone who says a number of things that are not true there is only so much you could do and still do your interview. and i know that is a frustrating answer to hear it. they're so much so much correction. people get mad at members of the media for not correcting an up stopping people. the problem is depending on how you are in

you heard governor abrams. he's going to focus on economy, job, inflation, on the incumbent president's unpopularity. the president today is going to urge voters, sure, you're probably worried about the economy and inflation but don't forget about abortion. "the new york times" poll published yesterday, what do voters care about most, the economy, 26%, inflation, 18%, abortion, 5% so if we went back to right after the dobbs decision, abortion might be higher. other presidents trying to push it up some. >> trying to push it up. this is a messaging sort of strategy we've seen from the white house, from dems across the country really since that decision, the dynamic here and the challenge for the white house, for president biden even today for democrats is going to be can you still galvanize the base even past the immediate weeks of that decision. even when the economy and day-to-day issue, high gas prices rising again as well continue to be at the top of voters' minds. if you listen to the white house, democrats

abrams said georgia is steel and--worst state in the c. >> harris: it puts brian kemp ahead of abrams just 21 days. doug collin, former republican congressman from the state of georgia and david carlucci from new york. doug collins, i will hear from you first on the battle in your state. >> it's just a continuation. it's a continuation from 2018 to now. brian kemp has an excellent record to run on. brian kemp is in a strong leadership position. he's very much right. stacy abrams only wanting to attack him because she doesn't want anybody to understand what her background is what she's wanting for the last few years. she's made public her liberal progressive ideas. it was funny she tried to blame brian kemp on crime when crime is going up in the city such as atlanta and others that are democratically run cities where they had issues trying to defund the police and others. it's a hollow attack coming from abrams. >> harris: it's interesting, david, when you talk to people how crime really rates in that state. that might be why some people particularly people of color, might vote for the

they are setting up the stage for stacey abrams. bus tour expected to stop by community center later this evening. in a state where elections are now won by single digit margins, the campaigns are red hot, including new allegations against herschel walker. >> represented by activist attorney gloria allred a new unnamed woman came forward claiming herschel walker drove her to an abortion clinic in 1993 after she became pregnant as a result of their relationship. >> mr. walker drove her to the clinic and waited in the parking lot for hours until the abortion was completed. >> walker is running as an anti abortion conservative against a self-described pro-choice pastor. clips of sermons used democrat raphael warnock during a successful first senate campaign are resurfacing on social media including a sermon on racism in which warnock says america needs to repent for its worship of whiteness. in her second bid for governor, democrat stacey abrams is doubling down on her attacks on governor brian kemp who defeated her by less than 55,000

quick stacy abrams. >> and the four years since, kemp and abrams have both remain household names. headlines citing new abortion restrictions and notching economic winds for his state. but he is arguably the most for his feud with former president trump who railed against kemp's decision to certify george is 2020 electoral college votes for joe biden. >> i'll be here in about a year end half campaigning against you governor, guaranty and progress of course having her i think might be better than having existing governor if you want and of the truth. >> abrams is now a rising star amounts democrats who deliver the party 2019 state of the unit remodel. >> i'm honored to join the conversation progressed we are georgia records abrams is building credibility with democrats and hollywood types they were voter registration efforts and has even been floated as a potential vice presidential or presidential candidate. texas soul of our states. [inaudible] stacy abrams is not going to be a governor or the next president. [cheering] >> next month kemp/abrams rematch also happening two years af

. >> stacey abrams said the most dangerous thing for georgia.brian kemp. you know, that is the direct opposite. they don't see a need for a change. right now stacey abrams cannot catch traction no matter what she does. she cannot catch traction. >> todd: okay, that is focusing on the candidate when it comes to trashing. historically early voting hasn't help the democratic party in this race. but nationally and specifically in georgia, we just read that line, 2 million people have already voted. half of the nation can vote early by the end of this week. does that benefit republicans, or does it benefit democrats like stacey abrams? >> i absolutely believe it benefits republicans because i don't think anyone wants to be a democrat. at this stage in the game, everyone is feeling the strain of inflation. they are feeling it at the pump. these are direct impacts on people's every single day. and i think and the end of it all, that will make the decision when you go into that booth, go when they privately and make a decision regardless of how you vote

i love you dan abrams.atch it every night on news nation and you're right down the middle, that's why the right hates you and the left hate you, so you're right about that. you're not an extremist on either hand. i don't know if you ever heard of richard b burns come he was a great attorney here in alexandria. he worked with big jim garrison and you know, jim garrison found the truth about the kennedy assassination and stuff. but he's passed now and his son dmitri burns, he still alive. but anyway, he would've been a great guy to interview on his kennedy avengers. and i love you talk about this book about alabama v. king. what i want to know to a certain extent, not really about the book. have you been looking at the fbi and the corruption that's going on there? i'll take my answer off the air, peter. thank you, both of you all tragic thank you. first of all, first of all thank you for your comments. thank you for watching the news nation show. i think you will appreciate then that i'm going to make some co

stacey abrams attacks and denies.g worth about $300,000 to millions. how did she do that? what did she deliver in that time? remember the major league baseball, right, when she wanted them out and georgians lost over $300 million. her defund the police policy she still supports with the organizations that she is on the board of or helped support. so she stands there and tells georgians i'm for this. but, someone a tacks and then denies, rather than putting forward an actual solution of what she said last night. she may sound air indict and nice. you are not wrong about the way they presented the tone. it's not enough to swing georgia voters, especially independence who tend to lean reasonable and right in georgia if you look at their history. >> steve: laura, i know she did try to redirect attention to abortion and other things. but the number one issue to everybody across the entire country, whether you are in georgia or, you know, pennsylvania, pennsylvania, arizona is the economy. and ultimately, i think brian kemp

you never hear stacy abrams talk about this at those issues.he was a pro-life then she was for late-term abortion and on your show she would not answer the question of when it would be inappropriate for someone to have an abortion. then after that when she feared the polling was bad she changed her position again. so even if georgians do not like my position on this issue, they at least know i've been truthful with them and they cannot say the same for stacy abrams. shannon: we've invited her on the show and hopefully have time to answer his questions and follow-up as well pretty want to touch on something quickly but former president trump may hold a rally there in georgia. they count know what this is potential risk of downside for you if he does. will you appear with him at a rally in georgia? >> well i'm not too worried what the atlanta journal-constitution speculating on. i am focus on speaking to hard-working georgians. making sure that they know i am going to continue to fight for them every single day to fight their 40 year high inflati

these are the policies stacey abrams supports.ted to be his vice presidential candidate and these are the policies she would bring to georgia. we are fighting against that. >> steve: governor, i looked at right now the clear average you are leading her currently by three points, although the latest poll has to up by 12 which appears to be an outlier. one of the reasons you are on today is because early voting has now started in georgia. are you encouraging georgians to vote early or would you prefer that they vote on election day or what is your approach to get out the vote? >> we are pushing people to get out to vote and i think it was pretty funny, you know, stacey abrams accused me of being a voter suppressor. i pushed back really hard on that last night, but yesterday we had record turnout for early voting the first day of the midterm election in georgia so the hopes of her pressure major league baseball moving the all-star game because our laws are oppressive and joe biden vice president harris were in the mix criticizing our

abrams has trailed kemp in the race for governor. the republican incumbent leading by 5.5%. they clashed on voting rights and policing. they appeared to break from the messaging from their respective parties with abrams painting a picture of a bleak state of affairs and kemp claiming the opposite, saying the sate's economy is, quote, incredible. >> our recovery has been as good as any state in the country. we have had two record years of economic development because of our business environment, working with the general assembly. >> gang crime is up. gun violence is up. housing prices have skyrocketed. equity investors have purchased 30% of the homes in the state of georgia. we have 1.4 million people without health insurance who cannot see a doctor when they need one. we live in a state of fear, and this is a governor who for the last four years has beat his chest but delivered very little for most georgians. >> joining us from atlanta, sahil kapur. you're reporting on two very different strategies being used by stacey abrams in that governor's race versus raphael warnock in

host: dan abrams? dan: first of all, thank you for your comments and thank you for watching the news nation show. i think you will appreciate that i am going to make some comments that you might not agree with. i don't think jim garrison found the truth about the kennedy assassination, and we have talked about that a little it. -- a little bit. with regard to the fbi, look, and this is something i have talked about on the show. i tend to be law enforcement. i think the media in this country has been very unfair to law enforcement around the country on a regular basis. but i also feel that way about the fbi. i think this notion that somehow the fbi has been corrupted -- it's a nice political argument, christopher wray who runs it is a republican. he was looked into very in-depth the opening of the trump-rush investigation, and while he found there had been mistakes in the way the fbi handled it, in particular with the fisa court, meaning well before donald trump was in the picture, he also found there w

abrams was not. it giving tax refunds, as it cuts, suspending the gas tax to help you deal with 40-year inflation when she was criticizing us. >> i point out mr. kemp dp not agree in contracts for black and brown businesses, we need to study it. i would say, cheat off my paper. i know the answer. >> reporter: the heated debated comes as erltarly voting begins georgia. the peach state, home toll another critical race and here the senate split 50/50 could be decided. incumbent democrat raphael warnock facing republican nominee herschel walker in a close race. casting his ballot monday, reverend warnock renewed attacks against walker. >> my opponent herschel walker is not ready. i pointed out the fact that he claimed to be in law enforcement, to be a police officer, and that he threatened a shoot-out with the police. and his response was to produce a fake badge? >> reporter: appearing on nbc's the td "today" show showed an honorary sheriff's badge he previously claimed was legitimate in a debate last we

the incumbent pushing abrams on her past and i police rhetoric. listen. >> how many sher sheriff sherifs have >> i think you believe it's the truth. i support law enforcement and did so for 11 years. >> ms. abrams refused to answer the question so i let you know the answer is zero. no sheriffs are endorsing her statewide because of her stance to want to defund the police. >> carley: during that the feet abrams launching a wild accusation at the governor saying he's responsible for rising prices. >> promised to take care of our families get the rising prices in georgia are rising because he refuses to expand medicaid and he's sitting on $400 million of our money that he will not spend keep us in our homes. >> senate hopeful j.d. vance also facing off the air the republican nominee calling out the current congressman after thousands of steel workers lost their in his district. >> what were you doing on those renewable solutions and your 20 years in washington, d.c.? if you are half as good as a legislator as you pretend to be, youngstown would not h

again, people now know stacey abrams as well. i do not necessarily think people are saying i have turned my back on stacey abrams. i just think some of the factors that helped fuel her campaign four years a are not as much in play as they were then. geoff: we talked about some of the personalities in this race. that's talk about the policies. what has been the central issue for georgians so far heading into the midterms? tia: so, we've done a lot of formal and informal polling at the atlanta journal constitution and what we are seeing enjoyed your is what we are seeing playing out across the country, which is that inflation, the economy, those pocketbook issues are number one among voters. what also motivates voters, maybe not number one, but also important to them, are things like climate change, abortion rights, crime. those are still important. the number one factor for voters regardless of parity -- party or political affiliation is the economy. geoff: tia mitchell joining us for our weekend briefing. thank you so much. the n

what abrams said is suppression is about barriers to access.he case again four years later right now. what do you make of it? >> that's referring to we have to identify who the voter is. put your drivers license number on your ballot if mail in or if you go show an i.d. election integrity and security. but her claims here, bill, to jonathan's report she is trying to energize the african-american voter number one. number two made millions of dollars off these claims when she is not running for office. she is a snake salsman trying to have it both ways. if i win i'll be the governor. if i lose i make big cash after the race. 35% of the vote thus far has been african-american in the early vote in georgia. it was only 31% at this time in 2018. more african-americans are voting. but democrats are concerned because in the early vote which usually favors democrats, primary democrat voters are only at 32%, republican primary voters are at 34%. what you can tell from the early vote so far is republicans are beating democrats and democrats are freaked ou

and republican brian kemp. >> carley: but it was this attack from abrams against georgia sheriff thatviewers stunned. >> i did not say and nor do i believe in defunding the police. he is lying again. and i've never said that i believe in defunding the police. >> ms. abrams don't see an end, got asked the question would she defund the police and she said, yes, we have to reallocate resources. that means defunding the police. men and women in law enforcement know who's going to be with them who has had their back and will continue to have their back. >> i'm not a member of the good old boy's club. so, no, i don't have 107 sheriffs who want to be able to take black people off the streets. who want to be able to go without accountability. >> carley: janelle king is a political commentators and host of let's talk about it with the janelle king podcast and joins us now. that comment is getting a lot of attention this morning. is that the right message she should be sending eight days to go until the elections? >> absolutely not but it's a message she's been sending. she advocated for defund

it doesn't look good for abrams based on the polls. she is saying what some other democrats are saying. you shouldn't trust the polls. that's a pretty big gap between the two candidates. >> bill: in pennsylvania it's a good race right now. let's put this poll up here. fetterman at 49, oz at 42. so this is "new york times" came out late last night and earlier today. then they asked this question, is fetterman healthy enough to perform duties of the job? 48 yes, 35 no, 16 don't know. >> the way i understood that poll 2/3 of that poll were asked before the debate. 1/3 were asked afterwards. that's a pretty critical time. everyone who watched that debate saw the fact his stroke is still really impacting his ability to communicate. so that may have had some impact on voters. chuck schumer and his hot mic moment the other day on the tarmac said it did not look like the polling had been hurt by that. who knows? >> dana: you covered obama/biden and now you are covering biden/harris. but now you have obama on the trail. biden not on the trail a

richard fowler, polling where the black vote abrams is at 80%.as at 94% and why shannon bream asked the question. what did you think of her answer? >> it was a valid question and a question i've asked her and her campaign when i interviewed both of them. i think this. when you talk to black voters both in georgia and other parts of the country they are saying not a big huge run to the republican party. the majority of voters sit out. what they look for from democrats is tangible solutions to their problems. after the 2020 election and the special election in georgia specifically where black voters gave democrats control of the senate, control of the house and control of the white house, they are looking for how democratic policies have manifested in their life. have there been some policies? yes. time for democrats to talk about them. stacey abrams has a platform dedicated to win over black voters and what she will do in the closing days of this election is go to the black voters and talk about her policy in a world in which brian kemp doesn't ha

abrams held a town hall.l businesses saying the governor has not done enough. >> we do have time to make a different choice. we have a chance to change the future. as governor, i want to get us back to the basics. education, healthcare, housing and the ability to make a good living. >> tomorrow a group of black radio stations will host kemp and abrams as well as senator raphael warnock and herschel walker to talk about the issues. of course, there's 36 days until the election, charles. >> charles: you can feel the tension. eric, thanks so much. so from the states to washington, a new poll finding republicans coming out on top of democrats for national security and maintaining american prosperity. let's talk it out with democratic strategist crystal knight from the independent women's forum. kelsey, this poll has been going back and forth for some times but republicans are building momentum. >> charles, inflation and public safety are top of mind for american voters to borrow a term from our white house press

abrams made the case for why she is better for george's economy. she touched on a number of issues including her plans to give teacher pay raises and expand affordable housing. think she said are only afforded to the privilege under him. >> a governor who believes in all of us. a governor who believes in one georgia. one georgia that belongs to everyone of us. >> sharing this statement in response to abrams. the people of our state know that abrams only offers them the same failed leadership they see what democratic control in washington which created forty-year high inflation that is hitting americans in the wallet every day. fighting for georgia families and it will certainly be a fight tonight on the big stage here in atlanta. >> we will be looking at that. thank you. >> from peaches to apples, a different governors race in new york. republican zeldon rallied with florida governor rhonda santos last night. the states incumbent governor is also getting a boost from some big name democrats. alexis mcadams is live in our newsroom with more on this

>> i learned a lot from floyd abrams, my father. i thinth one of the things you learn as a lawyer is being able to focus on things issue by issue. mymy dad who is a lifelong democrat first amendment hero represented mitch mcconnell for free and the citizens united case. all of his friends were so angry and upset how could you do that. as a result he didn't do it based on which side he thought. he did it based on the legal principle and so that certainly has served as a guide for me. it doesn't mean we agree on every issue but that's the sort of independence my father has shown in a willingness to say i'm going to put my beliefs and principle above party. september 202nd of this year on the dan abrams live show you said i've long said i do not think donald trump would be indicted in connection with january 6. i still believe that. i think the areas of concern number one, i do think there will be indictments in connection with the scheme where the swing states are putting forward an alternate set of electors claiming to be from swing

in her run for governor stacy abrams is focused on the base.tering and energizing progressive voters. senator raphael warnock is making a pitch to moderates hoping to appeal to the soft republicans and center right republican voters, which begs the question, which one has a better chance of working? nbc news senior national political reporter sahil kapur and the manager editor at the university of virginia centers for politics kyle condit. good to see you. kyle, nbc news just learned that oprah will be joining stacy abrams on the campaign trail tomorrow. she does still turn out particularly women voters. a lot of african american women voters still energized by her. but when you look at the polls and see how far behind, frankly, she is right now, can this help stacy abrams? >> look, i mean, democrats all across the country are trying to recapture the enthusiasm they had in 2018, and you have to remember it's not just turning out your own voters, it's also a persuasion game and in a state like georgia you have had a lot of voters who have been c

ifrt if lady jill biden will join stacey abrams at a campaign event today.l first lady of very unpopular president help stacey abrams, who is down big time to governor kemp? >> not going to, i think. stacey abrams is president of the interga lactic council or whatever it is. this is just another attempt by stacey abrams to prop up her campaign and the media trying to prop it up with the atlanta journal say good news for stacey abrams in otherwise bad poll. okay, really? this is not happening, stacey abrams has not had lightning in the bottle she had four years ago, people are seeing what brian kemp has done. >> carley: show was president of the world in star trek episode. >> she still thinks she is governor. >> carley: that is true, thank you for joining us and check out the doug collins podcast, as well. thank you, doug. fox news alert. off-duty police officer is one of five shot and killed in raleigh, north carolina and heartbreaking details about the ambush that left two connecticut police officers dead. >> todd: talking about this violent week for law en
