the democratic challenger to senator josh hawley, lucas is kind enough to join us right now.lonel, very good to have you. what did you make of what the senator was just saying, you want to get rid of all of that stuff, all of those fossil fuels. >> i mean, that's ridiculous, now, this is the type of thing that people who are worried say, so for me, i've been endorsed by the auto workers who make the ford f-150 here in missouri. it's important for me, just as it's important for donald trump, to put america first and the next generation of manufacturing and energy, so, you know, for me, that's something i learned at the pentagon. i was a marine for a long time and i extended for a year to work in the trump administration for the undersecretary of defense for research and engineering. what i wanted to do is make sure we control our energy future and that china doesn't control it. that means investing in nuclear, hydrogen and other technologies. i never said i'm going to outlaw or ban anything, it's one of the things that politicians like to say when they're worried. neil: so you

this is everything and missourians we are tired of control-obsessed upri politicia like josh hawley want but i don't have to just say because it is backed up our rights. over the past couple of years missourians have done everything they can to take power for ourselves over these ballot initiatives. we made it legal to smoke atwee in your back porch without getting harassed. we expanded medicaid, we raised minimum wave and overturned antiunion right to work legislation so what we are seeing this fall is just another example of missourians wants to takeun power back to themselves, wanting the ability to not have a guy like josh hawley decide how we get to live our lives but actually decide for ourselves. >> this is something i also think is really important in a state like missouri. have you been up to the major cities, have you been to st. louis, the small towns and suburbs? what are people telling you missouri's pact, abortion ban has had on their lives? some of the stories you have heard? what are the things maybe mayors a small towns and cities of been telling you about the impact the

so will you debate josh hawley? >> thank you for having me. i'm excited to be here.agreed to it. the funny thing is that he doesn't want any moderators. he did not want news cameras or any of that stuff. we have a new station that wants to hosted and moderate and we will be there in the question for us is is he still the coward of january 60 will he show up and do this thing and answer the hard questions? >> first of all, you are game to debate and ready to go? >> we signed up for four right now. in fact, we agreed to do one on fox news. the guy does not want to answer questions like why he stole $250,000 from missouri taxpayers by violating ethics laws. he doesn't want to enter questions about why he refuses to protect ivf and contraception. he does not want to answer questions about what he thinks no-fault divorces should no longer be available and people would be stuck in dangerous marriages. we want every missourian to see the contrast between me and him so we signed up and we will keep signing up and see if he shows are not. >> out of the campaign trail, what do

we took the claim to secret service who said it would respond to josh hawley's request for informationsee if the agency answers about technology failure during the assassination attempt. one of them, we learned through acting director rowe, 30-second window between local officer first spotted would-be assassin's gun protecting trump, rowe testified urgent warning was testified over the radio system and stayed siloed between local and state channels. it today's news conference will be 2:00 p.m. eastern. local media reports official cause of death has been ruled single gunshot wound to the head. back to you. >> steve: live in butler, pennsylvania, it is coming down. >> brian: i expect president to dispel and inform. they should say, okay, this is not true, this is true. that would help. >> kayleigh: you had 19 days, incredible. we should have 20 press conferences by now. >> brian: vice presidential nom neap j. neap -- >> steve: and veepstakes heats up. >> kayleigh: peter doocy is live outside the white house. >> peter: trump campaign has j.d. vance explaining why the former president say

one with lisa murkowski on the other, ready for this, with josh hawley and susan collins.to make exceptions for parities, but you can still require that those be labeled. so people will know what they are watching. otherwise as the washington post says, democracy dies in darkness. you will not know what is happening in a very much fear as mitch mcconnell has come out against these bills, despite the bipartisan support, that we will see some really bad, high- tech games played at the expense of candidates on the federal level. >> i got the are you ready for this, josh hawley signed on to this part of your statement there. first of all, what is the argument against it and secondly, time is of the essence, right? there is 97 days to the election and the technology is already out there. >> the argument they made is a speech argument on the first amendment. okay, so why did republican governors in utah, mississippi, texas and florida sign these bills for their state political ads? because they are not against the constitution. time and time again the supreme court has said and

the whiter point about josh hawley and the republicans is interesting.orted interestingly, aipac is the biggest single source of republican money going into democratic primaries. that's astonishing. if i'm chuck schumer, hakeem jeffries, doesn't matter how pro israel i am, i should be opposed to aipac, pouring republican money into my party's primaries. how is the democratic party okay with that? insurrectionist money, anti-abortion money, anti-lgbtq money, trump donor money coming into democratic party primaries and the democratic party is okay with that? >> yeah. it is very -- it is very -- it's a thing. it's a thing that's definitely happening. you have a documentary or there's a documentary that's coming out that zatao is a part of. >> it's our first original film called israel's reel extremism. they are different parties. israel is heading very, very much to the far right. on the ground examination of what you're showing right now, those viral tiktok videos vulgar putting out from october 7th on gaza. our films went out there, interviewed the soldie

you call josh hawley the coward of january 6th. what do you mean by that?ow, power-hungry politicians who only care about power for themselves. the fallout for him on january 6th is when he thinks it is going to get himself some power, he's out there raising his fist, shaking up a crowd. then the second things get real, he's skittering out the back door and running away. i'll tell you, as a marine for 13 years, who deployed to iraq and afghanistan, that type of cowardice would have gotten us court marshalled. i think we're seeing his unwilling to answer questions, the exact same guy who ran away from the crowd he incited on january 6th. missourians want to be proud of their u.s. senator, and this guy is an embarrassment. >> good morning. obviously, missouri has been a republican state the last handful of cycles. the president race just changed. vice president harris now atop the democratic ticket, no longer president biden. how has that changed things in your state, on the ground there in missouri? how has it impacted democrats and also swing and independen

josh hawley has been instrumental in this. he said he learned from a whistleblower that the lead site agent failed to implement various security protocol. what is not clear is whether that lead site agent is one agent placed on leave. we will follow up on that and get more details. i can tell you, josh hawley wrote to secret service acting director on august 5 calling for lead site agent to be placed on leave or to resign. he said he learned from this whistleblower that lead site agent allowed material like flags to be placed around the stage causing line of sight concerns. he learned secret service did not check ids when issuing cred credentials that authorize access to restricted areas. this news probably not surprising to many people within donald trump's inner circle. we learned from lawmaker ares that whistleblowers were coming forward to say there were serious concerns about the way the rally got underway that day, everything from preparation to during those tragic events on july 13th. >> dana: can i ask you something ab

. >> i got the you already for this josh hawley signed on the part of your statement there.terest in passing something like this first of all, what is the argument against it, and secondly, time is of the essence. there are 97 days to the election and this technology is already out there. >> the argument they made was a speech argument on first amendment. okay, so then why did republican governors in utah and in mississippi and in texas and in florida sign these bills for their state political ads? because they are not against the constitution. time and time again, the supreme court has said and upheld the ability to put disclaimers on ads. this would be prepared for with artificial intelligence and would include small, cosmetic changes. the other to band defects with josh hawley and susan collins with chris collins, michael bennet, that bill goes to the really serious violations where you literally cannot tell if it is kamala harris or if it is donald trump, where it is a video that looks and sounds like them, or a robocall that sounds like them and those just should be ban

senator josh hawley's been speaking with these whistle-blowers and he joins us now. have these whistle-blowers been telling your office? >> well, what they've been saying, jesse, is that this individual, the site agent, the lead agent was known to the trump campaign to be inexperienced, to be ineffectual, to be frankly incompetent at their job. i'm also told by whistle-blowers that, on that day she was not enforcing the normal security protocols. she was not checking people's i.d.s. she did not use secret service agents. most of the agents there that day were not secret service agents. they were homeland security agents and, get this, jesse, most of them had never worked a rally before. yet this is who she chose to staff the event with and she didn't train or integrate them. from top to bottom, it was a total disaster. jesse, it is a miracle, a miracle that the only that trump is alive but that more good americans were not killed much it's unbelievable. >> jesse: you're saying that the site agent in charge of the security in butler wasn't checking i.d.s? what do you

lucas kunce, the candidate against josh hawley in missouri knows that josh hawley is way out of steph most of america. keep in mind josh hawley votes like jd vance. people need to repeat this over and over again. jd vance not only does not want any exemptions, he wants any women who have been raped to be forced by the government to give birth to the child of their rapist and he wants to vote against contraception and ivf for millions of families trying everything they can with the science god gifted our planet with to be able to have children. the guys that are in charge infuriated women. i'm so proud, too, of the three women that are going to speak tonight. they represent so many more women, nicolle, that aren't going to make the most painful and private parts of their live public and i respect that. they've faced brutal, brutal decisions because their state has banned abortion. >> one of the sort of tectonic plates that have shifted in american politics is the dobbs decision. just talk about the messaging and the continuity, frankly, between president biden on top of the ticket and

republican senator josh hawley has been very instrumental in this. and early august he said he learned from a whistle-blower that the lead site agent failed to implement various security protocols, holly wrote two acting service members wrote back on august 5th that that whistle-blower told him the lead site agent allowed to materials such as flags and other items to be permitted around the stage and catwalk and this would have caused line of sight issues for the agents responsible for identifying threats. and also said he learned from the whistle-blower that the secret service did not check ids when issuing credentials to those who authorize access to restricted areas of the site. and josh hawley's was told also that the iss agency was told by this whistle-blower that the agents who were at the event had told other people they had never staffed a rally before. so these are all details that came out in the aftermath of the assassination attempt and we know that the culmination of this is several secret service agents being placed on leave. and so i t

even though they have a number, i think, five televised debates, and chris wondered outloud, is josh hawley seeing different internal polling that is making him pull a stunt like that. usually it's the person behind in the polls who's trying to get that sort of attention. we'll see. let's talk more about the moment, though. this is a woman, kamala harris, who's getting the nomination tomorrow, officially being handed it, making a big speech. she's the person who took over your senate seat. she has been on a roller coaster ride, just a straight up roller coaster ride, hopefully one that doesn't come down in her view, up to this position. do you feel that -- do you feel like she's doing a good job so far? are you impressed? or what are you thinking? >> i'm very impressed. you know, kamala ran for president the last time, and joe biden defeated her, and then she became the vp, and she, you know, literally stood by the master. she watched. he had a portfolio. she learned foreign policy, domestic policy. i am so impressed, and i've watched her so carefully over the years, she's grown into this i

got, which had to do with his personal involvement and a letter that has been sent from senator josh hawley to him requesting a lot of information. >> it's talking about a whistleblower who has alleged to hawley's office that it was roe personally who cut by 20% the counter surveillance division. and holly is alleging that that actually would have created a situation where that sort of outside area that's in question would have been basically completely secure. it seems it does seem very hypothetical. it also may raise some real really important questions as well. let's say that what did you think about that this is what this is what, how he does. >> he wants to create a headline that heads towards him and not towards the significant problem that the secret service obviously has. first of all, that that decrease in in personnel out, we need to find out. is it true number two why did it occur? and number three, did congress authorize it? because of congress authorized it, then it's back to the senator and not on the secret service the second is it's wishful thinking to think it's the counter

josh hawley is doing nothing like his wife. we need a good investigation of the alliance for defending freedom. guest: david, we take tips from our readers in the public all of the time and i will take that tip from you as someone who clearly follows the news and the diverse stories under the news quite well. 1.i would make about independent voters and project 2025, if you look at polling on some of the high profile subjects including the department of education and the schedule f of government workforce reform, they pulled -- they poll poorly. a poll had this saying they disapproved of these kinds of policies. so is that a large number of democrats and independents as well? the issues if you pull them out are not especially popular with large majorities of people. host: we have a text from denise in minnesota. has the conservative super mari on the supreme court emboldened them to believe that many of the policies of a project 2025 can actually be pushed through with trump's win? guest: i think the answer to that is yes. if yo

, and josh hawley said he would not give one single penny to a worthless cause.less cause, he calls protecting democracy in worthless cause, so i went on to ask how he can sleep at night, knowing that ukrainian women, children and elderly are being slaughtered by russian aggressors. and the person repeated the same thing, senator hawley will not give a penny to a worthless cause, so, then we went on, you know, and i hung up, and, so, a couple weeks later, whenever i called to ask him what his opinion was on the deal that trump turned down on the border that trump destroyed, and my phone number is blocked. my representative supposedly has blocked my phone number. so i wish that you would show a lucas koontz advertisement there so we can see water real person who cares about missouri looks like. host: tom, ohio, republican. caller: i would like to go back a little ways, but obama ran through the obamacare deal, and you could keep your insurance and tablet you would like, and brown is from ohio, and they took our insurance away. i worked at a uaw plant, and we had t
