they gave us resources to be in columbus, macon, and southeast georgia. i want to see where we can continue to grow. human trafficking needs more resources. i am excited about this organized retail crime. but something needs to be done. it needs to be addressed. there is no doubt that costs are going up. you are a recovering attorney and i am an attorney. the way we handle disputes, we the people set up the judicial branch. you have to have access to the courts, and i would not deny that, but now we have a pastor is asian -- a bastardization of the system. talking about increased insurance rates, increased costs for premises liability. talking about advertising, i took my daughter to disney a year ago, we were coming up to 75, and there was a tragic situation with a lineman killed in a car accident. here i am coming up 75 last year and there is a firm that's got his picture on it. he died two years before. we've got an issue we've got to deal with with advertising as well. i have been fighting third-party litigation funding. we have groups where it is dar

the hope of a young naval lieutenant bravely patrolling the macon delta, the hope of a mill worker's son who dares to defy the odds, the hope of a skinny kid with a funny name who believes that america has a place for him, too. hope -- hope in the face of difficulty. hope in the face of uncertainty. the audacity of hope. in the end that is god's greatest gift to us, the bedrock of this nation, a belief in things not seen. a belief that there are better days ahead. i believe that we can give our middle class relief and provide working families with the road to opportunity. i believe we can provide jobs for the jobless, homes to the homeless, and reclaim young people in cities across america from violence and despair. i believe that we have righteous wind at our backs and as we stand on the crossroads of history we can make the right choices and meet the challenges that face us. america, tonight if you feel the same energy that i do, if you feel the same urgency that i do, if you feel the same passion that i do, if you feel the same hopefulness that i do, if we do what we must do, then

mich macon works for the democrats, that's how i look at it. willing to spend more money than republicans, then i think this statement is true, yes, more wars, yes, major ones. the main goals of the dim party, he fully supported them, but if they were here, if there were members of the uniparty and members of this company, they would say: look, but it aligns with our goals, it has what we need, we have to accept bad things to get what we need, it has something that helps defense, and the republicans are all about defense, we need that too, the defense part of it, military-industrial complex. it's like bait, it's a way to lure republicans into the uniparty. can you repeat this again? i want everyone listening, if you 've listened to this point, this is the key point, write this story down on the refrigerator. military-industrial complex is the very bait with which all these progressivist expenses are swallowed. in other words, they include various goodies for the pentagon. this is what attracts. our combat capability has been reduced because of

she says he thinks he macon public has no idea how grave the national defense threats are in today's world. can you start by putting those threats in perspective for viewers? guest: sure. thanks for having us. it was good to be able to testify yesterday before the senate armed services committee what we had a good turnout of members who are concerned about these set of threats we are concerned about. i think the main thing is that the united states over the last 20 years has been decreasing the resources for defense while accumulating challenges have gathered around the world. we first saw some of that with the russian seizure of crimea and 2014 -- in 2014 and the renewal of the war in ukraine in 20 by vladimir putin. in october, we heather renders hamas -- we had the horrendous hamas attack on israel and the subsequent fighting in gaza. we also have had an intensifying strategic competition in the indo pacific with the people's republic of china and concerns we will leave this "washington journal" conversation and take you back to the wilson center in washington, d.c., for coverage

the intelligence nichol leaded, to engage in the assembly like 250000 people, was right out through macon gail battalion and other ukrainian. the nationalist sections, police force and things like this that will be engaged in controlling ukraine once the invasion actually got the, the music and the she could only if i were to assume was that what's the deal with it? what do you, how could i answer? so i mean human socially to the old folks and then go up to more. they would just use the tools glass cans noticed them. in the 1950s, the survey had sent a huge falls to west and ukraine to find the national this cause. therefore, the heart of your broker for one's you to little biggest concern, of course, why you are the most that you're still you still don't bundle with just one way with except the parties group of sylvester, which does really would have to produce things can pop up for these deals up what you're getting this up with, the was a nice k g b officer who forward against the bundle underground. in the late forties and arrested, one of the leaders seized history repeating itself i

audio conversation with elon musk last night where he delivered important public policy message to the macon people like this. >> kamala wouldn't have this conversation. she can't, because she's not smart, you know. she's not a smart person, by the way. and biden, we don't even have to talk about it. he couldn't have this conversation. he would have given up on the first half of the question, he would have walked out. >> that appearance, if you want to call it that what was the culmination of a three-week stretch in which trump weirdly wrote this fanfiction about himo coming back to the race. he's not running against him, just for the record. he also over the weekend down right including the people that were there had been completely fabricated using a.i.. he suggested that kamala harrish only became a black person recently, which is a racist like, but also weird, a product of a brain that has been scrambled like eggs. donald trump is the same guy mp he's always been. and yet republicans, i mean, god bless them, still think he's capable of being someone else entirely. it's 2024, i've been do

that the government itself had been engaged in a deadly deception with over 623 african americans in macon county, which tuskegee's county seat in connection with a study of untreated syphilis in the negro males and didn't tell them about it. i had to file a lawsuit against them. of course you can only file a lawsuit against the government, the way they say you can do it, and the terms and conditions of it, we were finally able to get that settled as much as we could, and then later on i found that there were some people that an apology by the government to those people and to the community should take place. a group had tried to do it. they hadn't been successful. i thought of a way of getting those men and having a press conference, and as a result of that press conference, on the 8th of april, 1997, president clinton end ed up granting the apology to them on the 17th of may of 1997, only just a little while afterwards, and then they told me as our lawyer we want you to do one more thing. we want a permanent memorial in tuskegee so people will know that we have made a contribution to thi

actually, with| is quite interesting actually, with their specific moment in time, is that starmer has macontting illegal migration, coming over to work and study, cutting irregular migration, a central tenor of his government. he says he is going to smash the gangs bringing over those boats and massively reduce those people coming illegally as well. interestingly, as we are saying, it is inherited from the last government, policies that have enabled those numbers to come down in spite of anything he has to do. so over the next sort of six months to a year, we are going to naturally start seeing those numbers come down. that is people coming over to work principally in health and social care as we saw, but also we are seeing a drop in international students coming to study in universities. the relatives of these peeple — study in universities. the relatives of these people as _ study in universities. the relatives of these people as well? - study in universities. the relatives of these people as well? yes. - study in universities. the relatives of these people as well? yes. the| of these peo

in columbus, in macon county. if not outright win some of these counties, and that is how you flip this state and win statewide. so we are going to continue to do that. these voters. we also see republican voters that are resonating with our message. you saw throughout the convention we had a number of prominent republicans feature. it's because -- exactly extreme and dangerous a second term would be, which is why they are endorsing vice president harris, speaking at the national convention about the dangers of donald trump, including republicans who have worked for him. we are going to continue to do all of the above net the same time, making sure we are building an apparatus specifically in georgia to make sure that people are going to be able to express their fundamental right to vote and i'm very proud of the voter protection efforts that our campaign has that will be used in that state to make sure that the election goes off smoothly when it is time. >> while there is time, mr. fulks, i have to go to this. as

georgia has significant populations of black voters outside of the metro, macon, savannah, albany, alsoy not think as a place for potential democratic voters and that's where the harris/walz campaign is looking to turn out these voters, even if it's just dozens or hundreds, that can make a difference, election day in a state like georgia. >> one could argue it is a turnout election. sam, thank you so much. >>> when we come back, israel and hezbollah, traded rockets over the weekend. we are going to get into why that might mean the middle east could escape an all out war. we will get into it when the 11th hour continues. hour conti. ice cream on you? your money is a part of your community, so your bank should be too. like, chase! i still love to surf, snowboard, so your bank should be too. and, of course, skate. so, i take qunol magnesium to support my muscle and bone health. qunol's extra strength, high absorption magnesium helps me get the full benefits of magnesium. qunol, the brand i trust. with dexcom g7, managing your diabetes just got easier. so, what's your glucose number right n

. >> reporter: leon insisted he did not hire anyone to hurt macon.town. >> i never asked him to anybody or kidnap anybody. what i was told was what what meghan wanted to do was go back to pittsburgh. >> reporter: why would you want to be nice at this point. meghan does not want anything to do with you? >> i was told that is what she wanted . >> reporter: what about the tapes? leon said the tapes did not prove anything. why go down this road? why higher who you think is a hitman if you did not want meghan dead. >> you have to understand something. i never thought these people were violent criminals at all. >> reporter: that is not how it appears on the tapes. >> if you listen to what is said, i never asked him to hurt anybody. never asked them to kill anybody. >> reporter: remember, he did offer a suggestion on how to kill her. why are you telling him how to do this? >> i will talk about that when i am on the witness stand. >> reporter: nothing you want to share now. >> no. >> reporter: we asked how valerie's husband became a target. >> i had nothing

so by the time they send from jackson into another community like macon, you know, the violence may haved down, but that's not before. you know, that's not a great number of people have been killed, driven off their land. so there are in the region, they're often not necessarily in places where the violence is occurring, except in places where president boosts troop levels. but again, that's often for many people, it's never enough to stop the violence. it may of tamp it down. and don't get me. there are people who are like, thank goodness for the troops. they came back. they came so i can stay home. but it's never enough. and it's very hard to justify a standing in a time of peace. because confederates are saying, you know, thought we were at peace. why do we have a standing army? and so there's lot of political pressure to the troop levels in the south so that by 1876, 1877, there are still truth. but they're not a lot of troops. they're not as many troops as there had been in 1864. i think. hello. thank you. and i heard you speak on the radio and that's i had to come over here to spea

then we got to world war ii, and he had to go to the macon people to rebuild everything.hen carter. carter's the worst president of all time. carter only needed four years. you know why? remember this. the embargo. prices went up, prices went up, because there was no oil and gas. they do nothing in america. ford tried it, nixon tried. now, here we go. let's go back to obama. obama, the economy will up. people were having a hard time. that is why trump got in. trump started working it down, brought everything down. america was working, america was making money. he didn't have to make people pay $15 an hour. they were able to pay that $15 an hour, because everything was going. he loses the election, they put over $2 trillion into the economy, but all you hear is some of that money disappears. they did not give it back to the american people, they gave it back to wall street. look at how high wall street is. trump can bring down the economy in a year to year and half if he gets back in. it is a simple process. like he said, drill, baby, d rill. host: former president trump a

without let's bring in macon -- mike pompeo former sector of state and -- know if he's contributor, iran on my pompeo's head and the biden demonstration renewed his security production earlier in this year in that situation. secondary, always good to see you. thank you for being here. i guess what strikes me i want to talk to about iran iran and their meddling in u.s. politics which now as u.s. intelligence consent of high order. but your reaction as we look at this very unusual situation where the president of the united states is really in the backseat now to his vice president who is running for office and he gets question and some very big issues that are pressing on the white house? >> yeah, martha, it's a very dangerous time. our adversaries are watching this too, like, who's in charge? who's running the american national security? is making the decisions about whether to send increased weaponry that we know sent to the middle east? the grain from the advance into russia, president biden that it puts russia at risk for the court's policy always pulled the ukrainians not to do that

as the power with us is it possible to be more capable and more practical be, able to perform here, macon state making a his out and camila as well as what lies ahead. >> how we get there get exceptional offers at your local audi dealer my son wasn't ban here and i keep mine is the city is encouraging intrapreneurship on all levels every time i'm traveling out of abu dhabi, and come back up and see the changed the bid. some things are always emerging i feel just myself when i'm in abu dhabi, i'm doing these that i want to do. >> and by rose as a woman is just here. abu dhabi's my hope there. for those first days and first steps. >> the new beginnings and here we go again. >> where. are these moments are made there is where you'll find us because it's never been about what we're here to help protect you from it's always been about what we're here to help protect you the first bill is subway has never been easier just by inner foot football going to get another free dollar hard part is telling travel. he doesn't get the second foot long, waits seriously. i've got to next z's baking the hous

becomes governor they went to get rid of him because he's getting rid of all the corruptions of the macon vice president he does not want to do the job. at the place were careers and die is a horrible human being going to be a disruptor is not worthy of the office. too much of a self promoter becomes president of the united states. one thing you wanted to do was address race in america that the autobiography of booker t. washington he had his wife rita he said we have too meet this guy. the bookt that got me excited that we'll get you excited gets a teddy roosevelt excited. in 190 when they beat new york city's welcome onto president one day but let's work together. i said i would love too. he dies and writes a letter not going to go makein it to muskeg. they're not going to believe it mckinley is dead and i'm president. to watch you come visit me? so when he comes in word gets out booker t. washington's theirs are teddy roosevelt said come see me. that creates the visit to the white house no pictures just sketch what was it a big deal? because in the south they're not ready for blackwood

so if they can't access it because oh well, when i was in macon i voted this way and i could vote after work up until 7:00. but apparently you can't do that in savannah. and so when we look at it's wonderful that it's decentral ized and states have the ability to do it, but it's also a curse because without that centralized nation, you don't have control. and in 40 countries that we work in, there's a central election commission. so, you know, when people are misbehaving, you know who to blame. and you know that election commission is going to hold them accountable. that's just not the way it works in the us and so good news is you can't hack every election across the united states at the same time because they're all so different. the bad news is, you some of them can get hacked and they could be the important ones and people can't vote as easily as they should be able to. and so those are things that we have to actually pull together and make sure people understand how you vote in your neighborhood, how that happens, how your voice can be heard. and that's a really interesting point.

so in conclusion from marietta to macon, from savannah to columbus, from augusta to right here in atlanta the legacy of red-blooded american patriots who gave their blood, sweat and tears to defend our country and our freedom. we stand on the shoulders of american heroes who crossed the oceans, settled the continent, tamed the wilderness, laid down the railroads, raised up those great big beautiful sky breakers. won two world wars, defeated fascism and communism and made america into the single greatest nation in the history of the world. but now we are nation in decline. we are a failing nation. we are nation that has lost its confidence, lost its willpower and lost its strength. we are nation that has lost its way. but we are not going to allow this horror to continue. less than four years ago we were a great nation and we will soon be a great nation again. with our leadership every disaster, kamala harris and joe biden can be fixed and it will be fixed very quickly. every problem can be solved and every round can be rectified by this time next year, america's borders will be sealed and

you've got places like columbus, macon, augusta, savannah, chatham county, one of the largest counties in the state. just west of that, another county one of the fastest growing in the nation. i'm very happy to see that the campaign is there, and i can tell you the people are so excited to see that they are getting the attention they deserve from this campaign. >> georgia, if you look back at the margins, i looked them up today, because we think it's interesting for people to note this, trump's margin in 2016 was 211,000 votes. biden's margin in 2020, 11,000 votes. some of this is kind of campaigning in places where people don't have -- haven't gone before. there are issues that the harris-walz campaign is talking about like rural health care. what are the other issues you hope they're talking about as they're out there and people really need to hear about in georgia to consider this ticket? >> well, we know that immigration is a big topic of discussion throughout this state. we also know there are a lot of conversations surrounding the economy, and i think what you will see is the vic

we have places in macon, valdosta, augusta. we have to be statewide in that state.mpete in counties that democrats don't traditionally go. that's how you win state wide in georgia. we have 35,000 people signing up to volunteer in our state. we have 190 staffers on the ground. we have 24 field offices across the state and in order to win a state like georgia and states across the country, you have to make sure you're playing the field within the entire state. that's exactly what we'll continue to do and i'm very proud of the infrastructure we put on the ground there. >> i appreciate the campaign is in it to win it. i think going into places where people might not expect democrats to go sends a secondary message, we're here, we care about you. >> the power of door knocking. i don't care how much money you spend on ads, there's nothing that compares to your neighbor showing up at your door and talking to you about the issues and talking to you about what you care about. you hear this across the country. when people get touched directly by a campaign, when someone asks

down here in columbus, the alabama line, we are tpaoeud up in columbus, macon, savannah, and atlanta metro always stay fired up. we are going to continue to be that way because i'll tell you one thing, you tried to steal our votes in georgia. the sad thing about it my governor and my secretary of state, they would have went along with it if the secretary wasn't in on the call. so lucky she was on the call and they weren't able to do what they wanted to do. because we already know that brian kemp, he is maga. he tried not to act like he is. we know that he is. we fired up down here. i'm going to go here and get me some good old breakfast and try to convince magas and change them over. i think i'll have a good chance of doing it. thank you. have a good day. host: when you do talk to trump supporters, what do you say in order to convince them? caller: i just the fact -- i tell what all trump has done as far as negative things. host: how do they respond to that? caller: they look at me sometimes. i'm a big old guy. they we all right. we are going to have breakfast. we shake hands at the
