joining now is the hud secretary dr. ben carlson. the left is cloaking this in the language of racial equality. isn't this about control in the end? >> yes, it really is. the left brings everything back to identity politics. the fact is what the president is talking about here is local control, federalism. i get to visit all kinds of communities across the country all the time. from are beautiful mixed income and nixed -- mixed use complexes but it's under local control. that's the way the united states of the america was designed. also in previous administration had a system in place that encouraged people to move to areas of opportunity and allow the money to follow them. instead this administration said let's bring the opportunity to the people. that's the concept behind the opportunity zones which are doing incredibly well. we want people to have choice. they can stay where they are or move. let the people be the ones who make the decisions. that doesn't mean we are backing off of civil rights. we have a strong record in civil ri

get that, he then puts cory booker out there, a black man will be, you know, next door to you heading hud he's depending on the racism of white suburban women, white women across this country, rich and poor. >> host: but i'm also talking about women who feel, chronic nonvoters, i mean, it wasn't just the last election. these are people who rarely show up to vote and who just feel as you say, so disengaged, and that i find really startling. >> guest: do you think the women's march on washington, the number of women who turned out in dc and across the country will affect this, because i think to me, the me too movement has created a new understanding of their power and presence, perhaps their own value to themselves. >> host: here's what i think about that. i think it activated people who felt like it was okay to sit on the sidelines and see, roll the dice and see how this was going to turn out, but i don't think that reaches these women that i'm talking about who are for whatever reason just disengaged. i think that cohort of nonvoters sinks this doesn't touch me whether they are marching

our affordable housing looks like around the united states if we get somebody like cory booker as the huden carson. we have the idea of changing what education looks like if we get somebody like elizabeth warren in there instead of betsy devos, right? we got the chance to change what criminaljustice looks like if we put mickey mouse in there rather than barr orjeff sessions. you know, we got the ability to change a lot of these judges who are appointed federally by the president throughout the united states, who perpetuate mass incarceration, who perpetuate all the problems with the systems where we know that disparity there, we know what the folks injail look like. we know where they come from. so, those are my hopes for the election. why are you doing this?! until then, this is what must be overcome. before george floyd in 2017, there was muhammad muhaymin here in arizona. the unarmed black man died after being held down by four police officers, one of whom put his knee on his neck, for close to eight minutes. i cannot breathe! no—one was disciplined. and you're only hearing about this

joining us now is hud secretary dr. ben carson. dr. carson, the left is cloaking this in the language of racial equality. but isn't this about control in the end? >> yes, it really is, and the left brings everything back to identity politics, but the fact of the matter is what the president is talking about here is local control. federalism. i get to visit all kinds of communities all over the country all the time, and there are beautiful mixed-income, mixed-use complexes all over the place, but it is under local control. people have an opportunity to discuss it. decide where they want to put things. that's the way the united states of america was designed. also, the previous administration had a system in place that encouraged people to move to what they call areas of opportunity, and a lot of the money followed them, and instead this administration says let's bring the opportunity to the people. that was the concept behind the opportunity zones. which are doing incredibly well. and we want people to be able to have choice. they can s

the suburbs will have low-income housing in their neighborhoods and cory booker will be the head of hud. so it was -- he used the word "invade," your neighborhoods will be invaded by low-income housing, which is a euphemism for black people and in case you don't get that, he then puts cory becomer out there, -- cory booker out there a black map will be next door to you heading hud. so he is depending on the racism of white suburban women, rich and poor. >> i'm also talking about women who feel -- when -- >> disengaged. >> chronic nonvoter it. not just the last election. these are people who rarely show up to vote, and who just feel as you have said so disengaged and that i find really startling and really confusing. >> do you think that the women's march on washington, the number of women who turned out in d.c. and across the country will affect this restriction think the #metoo movement has created a new understanding of their power, their presence, perhaps their own value to themselves. >> here's what i think. i think it activated people who felt like it was okay to sit on the sidelin

i think he is definitely he will be very sorry and we are all very sorry that this is not this is hud's not happened yet and i hope that the country is involved well. and out of what he's trying to do and resolve the crisis between themselves because it's not just only his wish it's the wish of people in the region to region more stable and more secure but there if we could talk for a moment about the big red line in modern kuwaiti history which of course is the gulf work in kuwait was a very different society before the gulf war than it is now and after the gulf war . talk a little about the changes that were instituted in the country and role in that because he bridge both those areas. where you think about there is a river come and that $191.00 the liberation of kuwait ok though. have not met with commitment to the constitution. 99. and this is something that wasn't there prior to 9 i mean with. the country. not the gulf parliament. we reckon because of the constitution and this hasn't happened so they've been going by the book the system has been unfolding as the laws of the country

it's called affirmatively furthering fair housing to hud regulations.was written during the obama administration. biden's advisors plan to enforce it. they will be ordered to abolish zoning for single-family housing because single-family homes are racist. when it comes to federally subsidized apartments, -- we will build energy efficient homes and public housing units. thankfully, trump has repealed this rule in july, but now, the left is backing and even more radical plan. it was a bill put forward by cory booker to push low income housing developments into the suburbs. this would be a federal takeover of local zoning laws, and biden, he fully supports it. >> the prior administration piled up more than 600 major new regulations and cruel and punishing revelatory burdens that cost the average american an additional $2300 per year. think of that. the average american, $2300, regulation. income -- hitting low americans the hardest. regulatory relief is providing the american household $3100 every single year. >> i had the luxury of enjoying the benefit of

. >> mike, the hud, seemed perplexed by the amount of cash on the bed. >> he's like, what in the hell is she doing with all this money? >> given a wad of money like that not taken, robbery was quickly ruled out. >> i requested them to bring another dumpster right now because we thought maybe bonnie was in the dumpster where they found her purse. >> you're thinking foul play at this point? >> i'm knowing foul play. >> a woman separated from her purse is a very bad sign. >> right. we're sitting there crying, hoping they don't bring out a body out of the dumpster. >> but there was no body and no sign of bonnie's car either. police handed bonnie's purse to mike and advised him it would be best if he just went home. >> the police told him, go home, sit by the phone, wait for a call, ran some call, an accident call, whatever it might be. >> homicide detective robby hinson came on duty later that day at the jacksonville sheriff's office. he was assigned the missing person case that would change his life. did you go back out to this airport motel? >> yes, we did. we spent quite some time canv

calls with valerie jarrett, president obama, secretary napolitano, secretary johnson, shawn donovan at hud. every cabinet secretary hosting some kind of call to try to help us as cities. we were not alone in this. and i have to say today as i talk to a bunch of mayors and another mayor does and carolyn does as well, but many of these cities today feel that they are on their own. they are just out there, struggling, trying to make something happen and that washington has really kind of checked out. and that is a big difference between '08 and 2020. >> it's a difference from natural disasters and other -- >> well, here's the thing. you had states literally on ebay competing with each other trying to buy personal protective equipment. you had cities scrambling on their own with their hospital systems trying to figure all of this out. there is still, seven months later, there is still no known national strategy to deal with covid-19. now, if it was a hurricane, if it was a tsunami, if it was severe weather event, you know, 25 inches of snow, whatever the case may be, there are plans to deal wi

congresswoman alexandria ocasio-cortez, and former 2020 democratic candidate, julian castro, who served as hud secretary during the obama administration. he was also mayor of san antonio. thank you both so much for being here. congresswoman, you heard what former president obama was saying there on the stump sthachlt. is that a message that's going to resonate with voters? >> when it comes to the electorates we're trying to win over, there are a lot of messages that are resonating, but first and foremost, covid is the most pressing issue for our working families. whether you have been directly impacted by a covid diagnosis, or whether you are a worker or a person that's been impacted by the devastating economic fallout of the pandemic, the fact that president trump has completely ignored and, in fact, is denying reality on an issue that is impacting millions of americans is politically devastating. and we have to have an administration that's not just going to address the medical fallout, but also the economic fallout with people on the brink of evictions, forecloses, layoffs, and more. >> sec

she'll be there with congressman o'rourke and also former hud secretary julian castro to shore up someatino vote in these final days. steph? >> abby, texas has not gone blue since jimmy carter in 1976. how realistic is it, this idea that the state is in play? >> i think it's realistic. that doesn't mean likely. so if you look at -- what is going on, one of the most fascinating things is, of the things priscilla mentioned, there's an additional factor going in democrats' favor. down ballot, the democrats are competing for the state house of representatives and nancy pelosi has launched a full-on offensive at texas u.s. house seats. there are well-funded candidates running sophisticated campaigns who have been running for two years, some even four years. so joe biden comes into this state with ap infrastructure that has not existed in -- easily 20 years. so i think nbc news and cook political report are correct in rating it a toss-up if only because things are so uncertain and so unstable. >> but talk to us, abby, about who that texan voter is. you're from ft. worth. that is part of the

appropriate programs and responses in place whether that is through fema, the usda, whether that is through hud, making sure we are able to step in in a quick manner and cover where maybe insurance will not make a farmer whole. i see the results when it comes back to my neighbors, my friends and my family. >> theresa greenfield, the same question to you. are you comfortable with a crop insurance program that does not make farmers whole after disasters? ms. greenfield: no, i am not. i have had the chance to tour damage in western iowa, all across central iowa and all the way over to cedar rapids. i have stopped at co-ops and elevators and talked to them about how they have been impacted. it is clear there is a gap. particularly coverage for our grain. so many farmers are under financial stress in iowa due to haphazard trade, due to reckless tariffs, due to my opponent's approval of ethanol waivers. 75% since 2013. we have got to make that her decisions in washington, d.c. to make sure our farmers who work so hard, who want their markets back and earn a profit and provide for their families. my q

government, there are all sorts of funding in our appropriations act, could be transfer funds to university, hud gave out an award for the money was supposed to be sent spent by a certain time. contracts were supposed to be done by a certain time, covid has dramatically changed the timing. it is my hope that congress will recognize that and continue to allow flexibility and use of funds even pass the time that may have been a lot of or agreed upon time because covid has changed reality. in getting requests from local governments and research institutions, i think section 3610, if it's in that category so i share your view we should be flexible. here is my last question. last year's requirement of plans to mitigate the effects of extreme weather on our faces, these are military installation resilient plans, we've yet to receive any plans for the department or services, can you tell me the status of the required resilience plans is? when can congress inspect to see them? >> i know my team works on those very issues under the installations group. i do not know the exact date or status but i will ta
