good evening if from milwaukee, i'm bill hemmer. dana: and i'm dana perino, less than 30 minutes away from this first debate of the republican presidential campaign season. bill: eight candidates will be on stage behind us, they will be fighting for their political lives. you know, a great performance could jump-start a path to the white house, but a poor showing could be lights out tonight. dana: coming up during the next half hour, we will check in with our debate moderators, bret baier and martha maccallum, and we will talk to brit hume, harold ford and trey gowdy. bill: kellyanne conway iser here, karl rove and laura ingraham. we'll get a prediction from sean hannity, and we'll get live reports from the white house and right here in milwaukee. dana: that is where we begin tonight. bill melugin joins us. good evening to you, bill. >> reporter: dana, good evening to you. look, it goes without saying, there is a lot on the line for these candidates tonight. these first debates always seem to get the most attention during every camp

i'm dorothy from the milwaukee ame milwaukee chapter.and i think one of the reasons that we started the american indian movement in milwaukee, we agreed to carry on is i remember one weekend when dennis, clyde, vernon russell came in in milwaukee and they met with my my husband herb and they were talking about the movement and all my life, i think i've been raised to i wasn't culturally raised. i lived on i was born on the united reservation. and of course, your neighbors were brought to wisconsin with an episcopal priest. so we weren't into culture or anything. we didn't bring any of that with us. and i talked to sharon about it, and i said, there's something in our dna that knows that we're different. i always wanted something different. i wanted to be who i was meant to be and not go. go to churches. go to anything like that. i wanted. i wanted to be native. i wanted everything that went with it. and so when i moved to milwaukee, i was 18 years old. and i met a moved and met her married herb and we started the american movement chapte

i moved back to my reservation in 1982 from milwaukee, moved back to oneida. where the first sweat lodge on that reservation and like member people in the community say what you guys do with the sweat lodge in your backyard? i said we sweat. we put the first tb up on that reservation and it still is there in my backyard. we have a teepee meeting almost every weekend. there's always ceremonies going on and i'm really thankful for this way o of life and i'm realy grateful to the american movement and the guys that were strong enough to stand up and say we're not going, would it take this anymore.oi we're going to stand up for treaty rights, stand up for all of that.e i can remember some of the tribal chairman were teasing these guys in leadership and there was a when you go to d.c. why do you carry around briefcases? i remember her telling her brother who was a tribal chairman at the time, we follow the tribal chairman about an he said you guys get drunk and come all over the treaty spirit we picked them up we drive them off and we honor them. i remember what a

in milwaukee is i remember one weekend when they came to milwaukee and they were talking aboutou the movemet all my life i had been raised and i wasn't culturally raised. i was born on the reservation in the course the own night at went back to wisconsin so we weren't into culture and we didn't bring any of that with us. i talked to s sharon about it ad i said there's something in our dna that does knows that we are different. iith always wanted something different and i wanted to be who i was meant to be and not go to churches or anything like that. i wanted to be and everything that went with it so when i moved toar milwaukee and was 18 years old and i moved and married her up andnd we started the american movement chapter after he was sober for six months and we started a movement for sobriety called the american council and alcohol and drug abuse a cause they felt like in order to raise a family and in order to survive, we had to be civil. i never drank in my life and i never got into that kind of lifestyle and i surprise myself when iha was older that i didn't get into it becaus

this was on a day when the heat in milwaukee forced the closing of the milwaukee schools.the debate, fox news played a question from a student at a catholic university. >> polls show young people's number one issue is climate change. how will you as both president and leader of the republican party calm their fears that the republican party doesn't care about climate change? >> we want to start with a show of hands. do you believe in human behavior is causing climate change? >> we are not schoolchildren. let's have the debate. i'm happy to take it to start. i don't think that is the way -- let me say, first of all, one of the reasons our country is in decline is because of the way the corporate media treats republicans versus democrats. biden was on the beach while those people were suffering. he was asked about it in said, no comment. are you kidding me? as someone who is handled disasters in florida, have to be activated. you have to be present, helping people. >> answer the question -- is that a yes? is that a hand raised? >> i think it is for him and my hands are in my

and this is who is on the debate stage in milwaukee. we are still waiting to hear if governor doug burgum will make it. he hurt his leg playing basketball last night and the team is not sure if he's on the stage, and some of the video clips from vivek ramaswamy campaigning on the ground, trying to compare himself to the founding fathers saying he's ready to be out there, even though he's the youngest candidate. and checked in with people here on the ground, john and sandra, say their main issue here is the economy and they want to know what the candidates are going to do about it. >> john: well, let's hope that doug burgum is better and is on the stage tonight. we wish him well. i hope he gets well soon. alexis mcadams for us soon in a steamy milwaukee. >> that's right. >> sandra: marc thiessen, great to have you here. i think everybody has their own set of expectations for what we are going to see play out on the stage tonight. what does marc thiessen expect. >> i think it's a blessing in disguise trump is not going to be there. he's s

they wanted this question of if he'd show up in milwaukee. do think the numbers there, as part of that, you look at polls in certain states, iowa, new hampshire, you see he still has a sizable lead there. you look at polls in iowa where it says that republican voters value what he says over their religious leaders, family, friends, you can clearly see just the pull he has on the voters that everyone else is trying to win over. >> jonah? >> yeah, i think the best possible rational argument using earth logic from the before times is to say whatever you think about trump, this guy is j has just got three barrels in him. this is not sustainable. but the problem is what kaitlan collins is pointing to, where you have this weird magical thing where you can ask republican voters whether they like something and they will say i hate it. then you put the word trump front of it, no, i really like it. trump has this sort of effect where if it's inconvenient for trump, people hate it. that make it is really difficult to make those kinds of arguments on a d

milwaukee picked milwaukee because i was looking for a place and characters that could ulpull together and was many stories as we could cram into was i think of as a bedtime story. i often tell people it is a little book, but there is a big story. there's so many others that people can contribute to that moment. but it kind of came out of the tribunal need interactive and having vicki amazing opportunity of getting to listen to movement of people that haven't seen each other for many years, getting together and talk and share and have their own stories. so, those for merge because they were closed. i remember so many times, dorothy, because i was modest about it. all of there sudden there's thee cars pulling up and there's this smell. leonard was there and this is one ace few times how can yo have. because of the milwaukee story and this profile moment of people in washington helping, there were a list is made of people to kind of be on the lookout for and falls information went out and he's picked up and it's years later before a trial comes to milwaukee. leonard already sent an impro
