go ahead, ari. >> ari: real quickly on dr. fauci and i'm a tremendous admirer of him. worked with him in 2001 and have deep respect for him. but about a month ago when corona cases were searching to 60,000 a day he said at the time i would not be surprised if we have 100,000 a day. since then it has dropped down 30,000 a day. he is a wonderful man but is not always right. >> harris: all right. you know, one thing just to finish up, ari, in the interview with dr. fauci. he said a lot of people won't listen to him because of the recent past and some opinions they may have of him. but he was hoping people might pay attention to him and i quote him, "for at least six weeks." martha, i promised i would come to you so let's do that quickly on the set up tonight. what do you think because we didn't get a list of topics, but what do you think it could look like in terms of what we see tonight? >> martha: the piece will be a little bit different and broken down ten nine segments or nine ten minute segments and a little bit more organized going topic to topic during the course o

>> absolutely. 100%, ari. it's extraordinary to see a sitting president covering north korea, there is nothing wrong and investigations with activities. my only point is you should have the same standards, if you think obama and biden are suspicious with the investigation should have the same yardstick for trump and his family but of course, they don't and the problem for barr and trump is that their insinuations about biden have totally failed and they had a bar zillion apples. trump had sessions look into this and had barr look into this and the inspector general look into this and the senate intelligence committees look into this and john bash look into it and at the end, trump is as empty-handed as a student who attended trump university. he's got to use the technical, legal term squat. >> squat. this is important because we know the drill and i think viewers are accustomed to it. there is a lot of noise and furry and fire early on. bill barr using the word spy under oath when he was testifying to congress

i'm ari melber. we watched joe biden campaign for biden and there is someone else campaigning for biden we've been tracking, the former president hammering the current one. >> listen, you got a president now that wants full credit for an economy he inherited and zero blame for the pandemic he ignored. but you know what? the job doesn't work that way. you've got to be responsible 24/7. you got to pay attention 24/7. tweeting at the tv doesn't fix things. >> obama speaking in florida. trump is playing defense with red turf. it's notable biden was happy to be going on offense in traditionally red georgia. context for that, if biden carries georgia, the would be the first time a democrat is able to take that state in 28 years. and it is possible you can see right here a statistical die. the numbers do show republicans doing better there in early votes than most other key states, building an edge of 100,000. biden is trying to expand the electoral map and sending ka 34i8 mill -- kamala harris to texas. in

it was a very different tone, ari.t wasn't the yelling that we saw last week, but it was still basically the same message, trying to defend the agenda of the last four years. and so pence did what he needed to do. he spoke to the base. he spoke to the trump base. because what we've seen from this campaign over the last several months is that the trump campaign has pretty much given up on the middle. they've given up on peeling away independent voters. they've given up on peeling away those suburban moms, and i think, you know, the interaction that pence had with kamala harris underscored that even more. so i think in this debate it was audible and it was also really something that i expected. where each of them did what they needed to do. kamala went in there, and part of the democratic strategy, trying to peel off those independents, while pence hammered down the base. >> mm-hmm. aisha, what does it mean to voters to see kamala harris, who is newer to the national scene, go toe-to-toe and just tell the vice president,

"the beat" with ari melber starts right now. hi, ari. >> hi, nicolle. thank you so much. and welcome to "the beat." i am ari melber and we are 15 days out from election day as donald trump plays defense in arizona, a state that republicans typically need to win the white house and where trump is basically in a dead heat with joe biden in the latest polling. the president still struggling to find a closing argument that's focused on americans' daily lives. he's under fire today instead for stoking autocratic rhetoric against democrats. meanwhile, biden doing prep for the final debate on thursday. now, among the many things that make this year's election different, here is an interesting one. right now we have more information about early ballots than ever before in american history. that's because of the pandemic with so many more rolling in. including a brand-new and rich trove of data about early votes, that means both mail and in-person, that we just got. so we've got some fascinating numbers at a level we've never seen this early. i'm going to go through a few with you

coto build a house, you need ary ststrong foundation. is true for building a business. black-owned businesses are an integral part of america's foundation. they lay the groundwork for other black businesses like mine - that turns concrete into something beautiful. i'm kimberley robles, and i'm the owner and founder of robles concrete design. the citi foundation is helping our community partners facilitate more loans to black-owned businesses. >>> one more announcement before we go. as so many head to the polls you may think this ain't no time to hate, barely time to wait. and as the last few undecided voters make up their mind it is worth recalling you can get shown the light in the strangest of places if you look at it right. this year you may feel set up like a bowling pin, knocked down, gets to wearing thin. what a long, strange trip it's been. a motto for 2020 if there ever were one which just shows how much wisdom from the beloved grateful dead applies right now. we are absolutely thrilled to announce that bob weir makes his "beat"

all right let's bring in our guests in miami ari ratner a former special assistant for the u.s. state department in west jerusalem mitchell beric c.e.o. of the israeli research firm keven and here in doha will lead medea bo founder and president of the sudan policy forum a warm welcome to you all lead let me please start with you officials in sudan have said that the agreement for normalizing ties with israel will depend upon it being ratified by the country's legislative council this is a legislative council that has not yet been formed so is it fair to say that this normalization agreement is far from a done deal. it's it's a it's a done deal in my home p.c. so far as the season he has been being buying the hit of the supreme council and the prime minister and they haven't made it he therefore to divide this. night vying discussing it was the prime ministerial office all of the sobering comments that the sureties was lobbyists that had to. how are they going to mobilize this issue. why now i think they ought to keep an eye on the fact that at this is specific point in history

. >> let me -- >> senator -- >> ari, if i could strongly agree with what brian said. you asked me about how this is the same as the other four supreme court experiences that i had where i went through this whole process. i'll tell you what never occurred is the nominee was worried if they said something the president would get mad at them. you know what? donald trump could withdraw this nomination tomorrow. and i think people forget that. this is actually hanging over her head. and so, but we've never had a president that would ever do something like that so think about -- this isn't about her. this is about this ridiculous fraud as brian pointed out that this is a legitimate situation. this is a president that's trying to send somebody to the court to do certain things and you know what? if he thinks she won't do it, he'll withdraw her nomination. >> emily, i mean, what brian says is worse than usual but sucked to begin with. and maybe that applies to a lot of washington. but all criticism aside, let me turn this down. i'm getting a little feedback. all criticism asi

let's bring in ari fleischer and juan williams. i'm going to think about sound i want to play for you. in the meantime while they work at the audio issues, let's get impressions from you on day two of this questioning, ari >>> first i disagree with her about the wine i would like a glass of rye to get you through the evening. one constant strarn going through the hearings, the democrats see the supreme court as an auxiliary legislature, they see the supreme court as the place to get enacted into law that which they don't have the among majority to get passed through the -- they don't have the will to pass it. republicans see the supreme court in a narrow vein of settling disputes about how to interpret the law. it's a gulf of disputes. that's why they're treating her as if she's nominated to be secretary of health and human services, because it's all to them about passing legislation through the courts, not about her judicial philosophy and they are abilities as a judge. >> the issue of voting rights came up today, juan, this is se

but ari, let's not forget that under trump we saw daca rescinded.he supreme court held it up, but then dhs has constrained it through its rule making to where it's a very watered down version. we've seen legal immigration constraint. we've seen our refugee camps go from 100,000 under the obama administration to 15,000, a sliver of what it was, keeping in mind that right now the un estimates that there are over 80 million displaced persons in this world as a result of war and oppression. so, it is a whole agenda of immigration suppression and cruelty that we have seen under the trump administration. so, this moment in the debate was critically important because we hadn't seen it in the previous debate or town halls that reminds us of the very real difference between a trump presidency and a biden vision. >> michael. >> yeah, say what you want about immigration policy, and we can go around the horn about, you know, what it is or what it isn't. but we watched children in cages. we watched families separated. and for us now to learn that over 500 childr

hi, ari. we go. >> michael, as is so often the case, you've made our night. >> well, you know, whatever i can do for the cause, right? we try, don't we? we try. we try. >> there you have it. michael steele -- >> so, what were you going to say? >> oh! i -- you know what, there's only 11 days left. why don't you bring him on every one of your remaining hits? >> i think we can work that out. >> all right, michael steele gets the last word in this segment and we will be right back. gment and we will be right back if you have medicare, listen up. the medicare enrollment deadline is only weeks away. with so many changes, do you know if your plan is still the right fit? having the wrong plan may cost you thousands of dollars out of pocket. and that's why i love healthmarkets, your insurance marketplace. with healthmarkets' fitscore, they compare thousands of plans from national insurance companies to find the right medicare plan that fits you. call or visit healthmarkets to find your fitscore today.

ari, this is all going down. the poll numbers are collapsing.eat lingers all around this. you can look at the sniping, the panic inside republican washington as they're on the precipice of losing the senate majority and the white house because the bill for trumpism is coming due. and throughout that debate tonight joe biden drew blood and held donald trump accountable for his profound incompetency in his discharging of duties for the united states. >> steve schmidt, with clarity, with bluntness and maybe from three point land if you will with the rudy giuliani borat reference. always good to have you, sir. >> good to see you. >>> we'll fit in a break and we have a lot coming in our next full hour of live coverage. a former chair of the republican party who's coming out for joe biden and a whole lot more. don't go anywhere i should say. we will be right back. robinhood believes now is the time to do money. without the commission fees. so, you can start investing today wherever you are - even hanging with your dog. so, what are you waiting for? do

leslie, you hear ari fleischer just the strategy outside of just ignore it. 6 days are an eternity in this news cycle. if you were 24 hours out that could work. but isn't joe biden going to do a closing argument interview? >> i am not sure. i agreed twice in my lifetime with ted cruz and yesterday was one of those days. he said the voters don't care about hunter biden or his emails. the problem it is 6 days before it is election. people say where was this guy before? why don't we have other people that worked with him saying i was there for that conversation? some people say like the biden campaign obviously not saying but saying with their silence, we are not going to give credence to this by not responding to this. the bottom line is unless you have someone coming forward like in a court of law, hearsay. when you just look at joe biden's tax returns they don't show any evidence of what is claimed by tony. in addition, the claims specifically of the holdings, unverified. i think the biden campaign 6 days out is smart to be silent on and this and sadly the voters have already made up

"the beat" with ari melber starts right now. hi, ari. >> hi, nicolle. thank you so much. welcome to "the beat." eight days out this year may not be florida, florida, florida, but, rather, scenes like this in what could be a must-win state for donald trump, pennsylvania, where both biden and trump are campaigning. biden suggesting the state can form his blue wall of victory while trump argues it's essential to his re-election. >> that's why we're here. and you know that blue wall is going to be -- has to be re-established. with the grace of god and the good will of pennsylvanians, i'm going to win pennsylvania. >> eight days from now, we're going to win the commonwealth of pennsylvania and we are going to win four more great years in the white house. >> the biden campaign seeing these big stakes like pennsylvania as a way to potential win decisively and even early on election night. and in this final week, i can tell you for biden the hard evidence there is mixed. democrats are absolutely psyched about what you see here. leading the early vote, doubling republican turnout.

"the beat" with ari melber starts right now, hi, ari. >> hi, nicole. thank you. five days out this race is fixated on florida. >> the heart and soul of this country is at stake. florida, it's up to you. you hold the key. if florida goes blue, it's over. >> in five days from now, we're going to win florida. we are going to win four more years in the white house. >> biden and trump crossing paths in tampa today as biden goes beyond his campaign steps more careful messaging than up and say it. joe biden thinks if democrats carry florida, he'll have the electoral votes for an early election night victory. that may be true. the candidates are statistically died in this nbc florida poll. biden is within the margin of error as he's back in the polls this week in the margin of error and democrats are doing better in the early vote around the country, look at florida where republicans pulled within 50,000 votes of democrats. pretty good for the republicans and a time of how tight it is. the headlines are not helping trump there. you can see here how florida papers are tra

p i totally agree with ari.ou need to see the differences and have them well explained. >> laura: ari along with peace and prosperity achieved under trump's policies, what we findhe is that the staffing that we can expect in the biden administration will be more jim call me, more deep state, the same characters who ran in the obama administration will be atck again for another go at it, that brings us to what happened on capitol hill today with the former fbi director james comey getting pressed. let's watch. >> it wasat done by the book. it was appropriate, and it was essential it be done. >> so you are proud of it. >> overall, i am proud of the work. there is no indication and the inspector general was if he found it. that people were doing bad things on purpose but that is not even less concerning. this was an investigation and it had to be opened. >> laura: appropriately predicated when the dossier was, in fact, substantiated by a man himself deemed as a national security threat, a russian asset, russian age

>> ari, thank you. we'll will be watching tomorrow night's broadcast. appreciate you staying up with us. joining us now, robert gibbs, and robert costa, alicia menendez, also erin haynes, editor at large for the 19th. good evening and welcome to you all. mr. gibbs, we'll go in the order you were introduced. what was that we saw tonight, and what did you make of mike pence's initial claim, looking into the camera and saying from day one, the president has put the health of america first? >> well, i think we knew from the very first question that mike pence was on some very uneven ground. and understood that he was having to defend a record as vice president and as head of the coronavirus task force that was going to, even on the best day, be very hard to defend. you saw kamala harris get off to an extraordinarily strong start with that question. she prosecuted that case, she's happy to have this be the subject of not just that section but she brought it back to covid on a number of occasions. so i think you expected that that was going to be one of the f

>> good evening, ari. the concern has been this week that, you know, president trump is on dexamethasone and that is a steroid that can cause in elderly patients that are hospitalized, delusion and we know president trump has gotten other experimental as well as not yet approved fda drugs. the bigger concern is the president being in the window the cdc describes as being potentially contagious to others. ten days, at least a minimum of ten days in mild to moderate case as person who has covid-19 can still be infectious to others. that period can be longer in someone who received steroids or had a severe course, immune compromised. so the concern that i have sort of watching the president's movements in the white house, when we have a patient, covid patient in the hospital we have to think twice do we need this test. do we need to take this patient to radiology because all workers have to be in personal protective equipment and ensure the safety of the hospital. any time there is movement of a person who is

i'm ari melber. thanks for joining us. two weeks away from election day making this a campaign like no other. donald trump in pennsylvania today where he's roughly deadlocked with joe biden in several polls and if this race did track past precedent, today would be like three days out than 14. based on just how many people are already voting right now. and that matters because it means many voters are not looking for more information, more rallies and ads, they are just voting. it may be bad news for donald trump if he hopes this make this week's debate the turning point he needs. tens of millions of people are voting before he gets a chance to pivot from his widely panned performance last time when trump broke so many rules, the news today is the commission is adding a mute button for part of thursday's debate, a clear effort to sanction trump for some of that loud and very unpopular constant rule breaking. but donald trump's documented problems do not mean and this is important to keep in mind, that his message is failing

>> yeah, ari, it is. donald trump has to try to do something tonight that he's never been able to do, appeal to his base and expand the base. that will be challenging because tonight he's going to be muted. the crazy outlandish things he says that tend to be beneficial and excite his base, he's not going to be able to do it. he's going to be the clean version of a donald trump album. every time he tries to interrupt and say a lie, somebody will block him. this will be a very challenging night for him. i don't know if he has the skill set to do it but if he can't at least change the media narrative of tonight's debate performance, this is going to be a ground game and right now he's behind in cash and feet on the ground. >> robert, you've prepped these and you know whether you're going to admit it or not, barack obama and donald trump have one thing in common as president. maybe the only darn thing. but neither of them had their best first debate as an incumbe incumbent. we've seen obama in other debates d

ari?esident obama also viewed the 2016 election in the same way and he did everything possible as a sitting president to help hillary and it wasn't enough, so i've always been dubious, harris, about what role typical politicians play in their endorsements in changing or getting people to vote as opposed to other taetting president obama to young black mails is a smart strategy for the democrats but at the end of the day i don't think it's going to matter much. elections are about the people on top of the ticket and endorsements don't mean much and i would include former president obama in that category. everybody knows he's for joe biden. endorsements don't have a lot of juice unless they're really unusual when it comes from outside the political realm. >> harris: maybe something like what we saw with cindy mccain, for instance, going with joe biden. you're right. who wouldn't think that barack obama wouldn't go for joe biden. i often say it about you even publicly that if i were getting r

"the beat" ari melber joins us. >>> what's it about, the economy? if this is the most important election, why? well, we're going to take a stab at answering that question for you tonight. its is what will be our last special report before election day, something we've been working hard on as a team so i want to tell you about it off the top right now because we want you to see it, we think it's important and it's coming up in a few minutes. now having said that, new data about the state of the race running out for president trump to change things as joe biden is making leads in the early vote and mail vote and we're seeing leads in state polling and he's leading in the spending to reach voters in this key suggest it'a biden sweep. he's up five points in wisconsin. trump needs to replicate from '16. biden up in michigan another midwestern state. more striking, in typically red georgia, biden up five points. these leads are beyond the margin of error but only barely. pollsters see them as real but slim leads. those are fund mentals. for the rallies on

ari, what have you picked up. good to be with you. you mentioned and you eluded to it as well in the overnight coverage. brian. the lack of transparency and the public health issues here actually combine the public interest and self interest, starting as soon as hope hick-s and the testing, she tested positive and the slow trickle of the information that affects the well being of the president as we care about and other people as you just mentioned, nicole and others made an important observation, clearly the effort that went in to create the video to stage manage this exit. while there's still very little information and detail yet provided to the public about the president's condition. the second point i would offer in more of the legal lane, brian, we are witnessing the president going to the hospital for what they describe as a precautionary measure for several days or more. everyone wishes him well. but there could be and may be important questions here about if his medical care proceeds, what his lawful authorities are. i will n

ari, what are the biggest hot spots and threats?es to voters in this already occurring voting season. >> those are really good examples you picked, joy. in north carolina, they're basically telling election officials to ignore the law. in pennsylvania, they're trying to throw out hundreds of thousands of ballots. in texas, they're going from 12 voting locations to drop off your mail-in ballot in harris county which is 2.4 million registered voters for one for a county larger than 27 states. so republicans are really throwing the kitchen sink when it comes to suppressing votes. they're not just attacking vote by mail. they're attacking voting in person. they're lying about voter fraud. they're making it harder to count votes. and the further president trump slips in the polls, the more i imagine they will rely on voter suppression as their only strategy to try to win because they can't talk about 200,000 people dying or 10 million people out of work or all the ways they failed. they're going to try to suppress votes to entrench power

you are watch "the beat with ari melber." i want to turn to cornell belcher, a fitting expert on this night. he was barack obama's victorious 2012 pollster and democratic strategist aiesha mills. we have other guests lined up for the hour. but cornell, as someone who worked with president obama, what did you see out on that stage tonight? did it strike your ear as a sharper and stronger version of the case he's been making this year? >> i was a part of the polling team for '08 and '12, a very strong team. look, he's so good, to say the obvious. what is really fitting here is, you know, the philosophies between the two campaigns can't be any more evident. barack obama talked about the decency of america, the possibility of change and what's possible if you vote for joe biden. on the other side, you have donald trump talking about if you don't vote for donald trump, the suburbs are going to be on fire and your neighborhood going to be flooded with immigrants. the philosophy can't be any clearer. barack obama's numbers have grow

>> so, ari, at the beginning you said how can the president reset? you know, he thinks voter suppression is one way to reset this election. but another way would be to actually act presidential, and as jason says, make a plan. and, you know, he -- remember at the beginning when we all asked, when is the president going to pivot from campaigning to being president? we were waiting, waiting, waiting. and he didn't. partly because he's in sales, he's not in operations. but now -- >> have ya. >> having had covid, he could have a dramatic moment. he could -- you know, he has something joe biden doesn't have. he's president. he is somebody. and as much as, you know, the majesty of the office has been tainted, there's still some of it left. go to the oval office and say how having covid has changed him. hasn't diminished covid. but now with the surge and he sees what's happening in the fall, he's taking charge. and here's what he's going to do. now, i don't know what he's going to do, but he's got to do something. campaigning is the exact opposite of what h

i'm ari melber. 1:00 a.m. on the east coast, 10:00 p.m. out west.nd we have a great panel of experts who join me in just a moment. here's the context. what we saw tonight was obviously, in many ways, a complete contrast debate to the one just last week. there was mask enforcement in the hall. the candidates separated by plexiglass. and while there were some interruptions and some violations of the rules, it was nothing like donald trump's complete norm-busting disaster last week, which according to polls, nobody liked. the debate began with, of course, discussing what everyone's living through, this coronavirus pandemic, and the trump administration's struggle to contain it, both at the white house and around the nation. senator harris hitting the administration and saying americans need to know a lot more about what's really going on. >> let's talk about respecting the american people. you respect the american people when you tell them the truth. you respect the american people when you have the courage -- >> which we've always done. >> -- to be a

ari melber: thanks to everyone for being here, it is a great honor. as we say, we will get right to it. by welcomingin justice breyer among many things but i first wanted to just ask if you had any reflections you wanted to share about the passing of your colleague, supreme court justice ruth bader ginsburg. and taking a look at -- i think that we have justice breyer with as a few moments ago, so i know that he is here for us, but i think he has stepped in or out of the room. what we will do, then, i will speak for a few minutes a little bit about what we are thinking about today with so much on the table for the country, voting is already begun. currently, it is a 4-4 court. fewme speak to that for a minutes and they will let me know as soon as justice breyer is back. soan agent, we saw him are and i know that he is excited to be with us. a few points on the court which we are ine striking, a time where the court is now eight justices instead of nine, but it's work continues. there are a slew of cases across the country and as always, there are appea

"the beat" with ari melber starts right now. hi, ari. >> hey, nicole. i have a question for you this long week. say you can't do much with negative numbers. how do you add two? i was never big in math and that's why i went to law school. you know, we're in this home stretch and you have the negatives of trump being attacked dead beat and the panning on the debate and covid and covid hitting the white house and how do you take that together? can we measure that in any way or wait and see how people take it in? >> well, i am right now failing third grade math so i'm worse at numbers than you. here is the question we'll be trying to answer for a really long time. why back in april didn't donald trump decide that the best way to save his presidency, which he always pinned on the economy through saving the country from the pandemic? why didn't he just decide that the best way to open businesses again is to get rapid testing or ask every main street. every chamber to come up with a grant application. why did donald trump decide his presidency hinged on the ec

ari berman, one last question. that does not exactly relate to, though kind of, the elections, we are about to turn to a segment on big tech. the ceos were grilled on capitol hill about how they moderate election disinformation and extremist content. accused by republicans of censoring conservatives. before we go, i want to ask about how facebook designed changes to its news feed algorithm in 2017 to reduce the visibility of progressive new sites like mother jones, ernie's organization. according to bobo the wall street journal" i'm executives at facebook had concerns about the new algorithm that they thought might have a larger impact on right-leaning new sites like the daily wire. so engineers made changes to the algorithm that would have a bigger impact on traffic to left-leaning sites. meanwhile, mother jones editors wrote in 2019 the site had seen a sharp decline in his facebook audience, which translated to a loss of around $600,000 over 18 months. apparently, according to "the wall street journal," zuckerber

steve: ari, 50 million people have already voted.biden voter and you have not yet voted, would you have been confused by a couple of his answers? for instance, if you are a progressive and you heard joe biden say he's going to keep fracking, you might be turned off because you would like to get rid of fracking. at the same time, when he said i would transition away if oil, you know, there are 10 million middle class americans who have got jobs in the oil and gas industry. and i was reading this morning something like, what is it, the average driver saves $540 a year at the pump because of fracking. so if you were in the middle class or if you're a progressive, it's like, hey, wait a minute, i thought i liked that guy til just then. >> yeah. fracking's also, by the way, led to a lot cleaner skies and climate because it's replaced dirty coal. natural gas is much cleaner. but here's the problem, i don't think there are many biden voters out there. i think there are a lot of anti-trump voters. so for the people who just don't like donald

>> welcome to "the beat" i'm ari melber. the president continues to break his administration's rules flatly breaking the conventional doctors orders to isolate while contagious. president trump doing what everyone with covid is told not to do, leaving home to go to work and endangering others. trump spent the afternoon at work in the oval office with two aides, a decision to violate the medical guidance is not a secret. with a marine taking the traditional post outside the oval office door you see here. in every administration that's the universal sign the president is in and the white house confirmed there was a basically that he was working there a few minutes later, building on the chief of staff's comments trump wanted to go to work regardless. >> his schedule right now is fluid. we're looking at his prognosis from a health standpoint. he wanted to go to the oval yesterday. if he decides to go to the oval, we have safety protocols there. >> medical experts are dubious because trump has been breaking safety protocols befo

sarah sanders, ari fleischer, donald trump jr., governor mike huckabee, so many others. first tonight with just 27 days until election day, you were the ultimate jury. something pretty remarkable happened. for the very first time since being tapped by joe biden to service his running mate, kamala harris tonight was forced to answer serious questions about her track record, her past comments, and yes, her frightening socialist agenda. and thanks to the corrupt media mob, which is all in on team biden, senator harris has never been asked to seriously address any controversial issue. like for example, the time that senator harris said that she believed the sexual misconduct allegations against joe biden or the time that she accused joe biden of coddling the reputation of segregationists come of those still need to be asked. or the time that she all but called joe biden a racist on a primary debate stage and said she wouldn't be a senator if the people he praised had had their way. or the time that in fact it came up often she cosponsored the radical green new deal in the se

ari, thank you so much. ali, thank you as well. catch "the beat" at 6:00 p.m.t nomination hearings on msnbc. do not want to miss that. that wraps up this hour for me. "deadline" with nicole wallace starts after this break. so when a hailstorm hit, usaa reached out before he could even inspect the damage. that's how you do it right. usaa insurance is made just the way martin's family needs it - with hassle-free claims, he got paid before his neighbor even got started. because doing right by our members, that's what's right. usaa. what you're made of, we're made for. usaa but a resilient business you cacan be ready for it.re. a digital foundation from vmware helps you redefine what's possible... now. from the hospital shifting to remote patient care in just 48 hours... to the university moving hundreds of apps quickly to the cloud... or the city government going digital to keep critical services running. you are creating the future-- on the fly. and we are helping you do it. vmware. realize what's possible. >> tech: every customer has their own safelite story. th

i just you know ari is really just a lobbying organization for the firearms industry they make billions and billions of dollars in this the united states a very unique and open market where nothing strays like that makes the united states it's one reason the united states is the foremost export of weapons both legally and illegally and i would stress the last i care about moral clarity and i care about making sure that we give a voice to the people but haven't had one of the n.r.a. wants to come in here and challenge me i'll take that challenge any day. among those participating in the forum discussion who are a former police officer and a number of victims of gun violence as well as public officials all of them determined to bring about change every year the united states registers up 260000 incidents involving firearms in 2019 they cost the lives of almost 15000 people and left 28000 others injured or in most states reaching the age of 18 in titles you to purchase a gun. and without having to prove that you can use one responsibly many americans say those laws are too lax but the n.r.

no shortage of work for our friend and in-house counsel ari melber, host of the 6:00 p.m.our on this network, also happens to be our chief legal correspondent, so it's kind of in his title. but, ari, i was thinking of you during the event not knowing quite where i'd start if i were you, but go ahead. >> there was more to start with because this was a more audible debate. a big thing we want to start with on policy and law which some of our anchors have touched on already is that exchange about child separation and immigration. basically the president was trying to imply that the previous administration where of course joe biden was vice president had the same or similar policy, and that's not true. we'll put am of the data up here regarding child separation. as mentioned 545 children have parents who are still essentially at large as far as the u.s. government's concerned. as far as what the obama administration did, they had harsh policies some of which were controversial, but a key distinction here which makes trump's claim false, they did not as policy target families f

. >> thank you, ari. >> thank you. and i want to welcome everyone to "the beat." we were just discussing this issue about confronting white supremacy, we have something new on it. every so often there can be a moment of clarity at white house briefings. even in 2020. so i want to you begin with me tonight by looking at a telling moment, a bad one for donald trump, as his own staff failed to handle the continuing fallout from this debate message telling the proud boys to stand by while he also refused to condemn white supremacists. the 73 million people know that happen. in this case, it fell to a fox news reporter pressing the factual question about what happened and then you will see. the report he seems visibly disappointed the sitting president's spokesperson could not simply condemn this today. >> does the president denounce white supremacy and group that's espouse in it all their forms? >> this has been answered yes by the read that himself, the day before by the president himself, on the debate stage. the president was asked this. he said sure three times. h

i'm sure ari fleischer would have liked those contracts.ure you would've liked those contracts, i would have liked this contract. my last name -- none of our last names are biden, so we didn't get them, but that to me reeks of corruption, pay to play, and we've got to get some answers, don't wait, before the election? >> yeah, i think it's a real disservice that the debate commission has done to the american people by not having this debate be strictly about foreign policy, because there is a lot to talk about in terms of this new hunter-joe biden scandal, this isn't just about hunter biden. this is about joe biden's behavior as vice president while his son was doing these deals with the chinese communist party, with ukrainians, with the wife of the moscow mayor and the biggest question people need to ask is if joe biden was willing to do this as vice president, what would you be willing to do as president of the united states when it comes to putting americans and american foreign policy and national security first? is he going to have to

ary, they said that white house operations said the it was safe for him to go to bedminister, they knew about the positive coronavirus test. >> i'm trying to get my arms around that, what does that mean, who would stop the president from traveling. i presume it's medical staff. medical staff can say to the chief of staff and chief of service we deem this unwise, we don't think he should. or they would hit the green light. according to kayleigh they gave the green light. that's how the guidance comes from the white house to the people who make the decisions. >> dana: donna brazil we were in cleveland together, the cleveland clinic, statement is a little strange, i'm not sure how the protocols work for the campaigns. were you there, we were tested. your thoughts today obviously i know that you are a faithful person and pray for the president and the first lady. but you're concerned going forward. >> no question, look, i was chair of the democratic party when secretary clinton had a bout of pneumonia on 9/11. i realized that day just how fragile everything is. and of course you have to ada
