leslie, do you believe in polls? >> leslie: [laughs] after 2016, not necessarily.y would believe these types of numbers, because you have about a third saying, "i believe her," a third saying, "i don't believe her," and the other saying i don't know. i thin of the day it doesn't always way into a voters decision to elect somebody and to vote for somebody. as we saw in 2016, the president is not immune from these types of allegations. nearly two dozen allegations against him, and he sitting in the white house. we saw allegations against bill clinton back in 1992. so this is nothing new, were people may say, "i don't like the person individually or personally, they might be guilty for this one crime, but i still will cast my vote for them." it's not always just within their party. >> melissa: i mean, as long as they are honest about it. of course, joe biden is running, as everybody's more superior. especially president trump more superior. there was an op-ed in "the new york times" from a well-known feminist writer, linda hirschman, that said, "mr. biden and the demo

leslie, come to you on this.again, it's not like it's a seeker that some of the media are left-leaning. what do you make of this? >> leslie: have to say, i like the fact you remember things i say. the lance have been blurred for a long time. do you remember years ago on radio that one day i would report the news as an anchor, and another day i would do a talk show. my boss said, "you have to pick which of those jobs you want to do. you can report the news and give your opinion about it. a general's reports the news, reports the facts, hopefully, and those like me, a democrat sy opine about the facts. those lines have been blurred. i think it's not only confusing to the public, but it's what becomes normal. i would agree with with the former cbs head is saying there. that is sad. there should be a difference. this is somebody giving their opinion about the news we have out there. i feel very strongly about that. >> harris: it's interesting, coming from the point of view of two people on this panel, melissa, who ac

leslie: i disagree.ve -- when you're sitting there and you're debating, look, do we give the guy the evidence, we knew he lied, he's probably going to lie again. do we show him what we have or don't show him what we have, do we show him our hand or not. police have these conversations all of the time when they are going to interview witnesses. howie: the reason the fbi knew because of surveillance and consideration with russian ambassador. that's up to a court to decide? >> kat: right it absolutely is. i would be less and shocked if he gets pardon and he and his base would see a justification for that. again, you're not supposed to lie to the fbi. that's not something that's up for debate, but i just wished that it wouldn't be so political on both sides on the ones saying there's nothing wrong with what the agent said or raises no suspicion but also not total exoneration but trump doesn't have to go that far and say that, look, i have been saying the whole time, it's politically motivated, look at what h

the mothering this fascinating to me because there's actually an excellent essay by leslie jamison inis week. and leslie has very young daughter who is i think two, and it is true that susan, when she was 19, had her first child and her only child. and 19 if you see the pictures in the becomes she locks leak she is 12. its shocking to think -- you can see their horror, what die do with this person -- what do i do with this person when she herself was in the middle of creating her own person of herself. she leaves her husband and guess to europe on a scholarship when he is five. and she stay earns for more than a year, and -- stays away for more than a year and a lot of women at the time, her friends, and now including leslie jamison this week, were very judgmental about that and thought how could you possibly leave this tiny little kid and good off and have a love affair in paris? well, i think actually a lot of -- i don't have children. my sister has small children and i think that -- whose grandparents are also here. i don't think my sister would leave her kid for a year and good to

our guest leslie sarasin from the food industry association.aller: i was wondering -- thanks for taking my call -- i was wondering, wouldn't it be a good idea to support our local farmers around us to get the supply chain between the people and local farmers? i've got one more question. washer have a pressure by the cart corral to clean off the carts? if so, i mean, how come they wind into the equation for the distancing? host: go ahead. guest: the work with local farmers, the fact is that is happening quite widely in addition to the usual sourcing our retailers are doing. they are alsoces sourcing products from local farmers. that is for a lot of reasons. they want to support their local farmers. they believe it's important to do that. second of all, as resilient as and asply chain is beautifully as it has operated during this time, when there has been a shortage of certain products, going directly to local farmers has been a tremendous opportunity for wholesalers. i think those relationships are strong and continuing to grow all the time. reg

over the past few weeks, leslie piercy has spoken to just about everyone. of businesses, shopkeepers, and cafes, and... a lot of taxi drivers. some have lost minimum—wagejobs. 0thers, six—figure salaries. a lot of the people — like, the stockbrokers and that — want to go back into stockbroking, because it is specifically... well, it's quite a high—paid job. but some of those people are having to rethink their careers as well. one particular gentleman that i had, he had a very, very well—paid job — so did his wife — and he went to become a night porter at a hotel. leslie works at a job centre in hertfordshire. normally, they'd process 60 benefit claims a week. recently, they've been dealing with several thousand. so, that's me found you on our systems... helen collier has only worked here for three months — forced immediately to help the unfamiliar navigate the benefits system. i definitely think the people that have been made redundant, and they've been long—standing employees, are often confused. they've never made a claim to anything before. so, they're a

hi, leslie. >> hi there. i can testify it is suffocatingly hot out here. if you've got to wear a mask of any kind. i think that's why there are so few people out today. it's getting a little busier here at larky park as it gets a little later in the day. but very few folks out in this heat. after all, there are few alternatives besides staying at home to deget out of it. there aren't many options for beating the heat. movie theaters and malls closed. same for libraries and even cooling centers that usually offer respite to desperate seniors on extraordinarily hot days like this. even local purveyors of ice cream are closed. the county is getting worried phone calls. >> normally we would suggest that they go to their local senior center. we have 16 of them in this county and if one wasn't available, we would recommend that they go to a mall or a movie theater. >> with covid, there is different advice being dispensed. >> we're asking them to stay home, hydrate. as you know, older adults tend to become dehydrated easier. >> mask wearing measures become stifli
