governor kevin stitt of oklahoma. we will be in oklahoma. it is a crowd like no one has seen before. we have tremendous requests for tickets like probably has never happened politically before. one of the reasons we chose your state, kevin, is you have done well with the covid. you both have, actually. so congratulations. along with several extraordinary small business owners from their state. also with us, treasury of secretary steven mnuchin and the small business administrator. small business is no longer small business. it is one of the biggest businesses. as a result of the virus, 22% of small businesses were forced to close earlier this year, including 41% of black-owned businesses. under my administration's strategy to vanquish the virus and restart our economy, small businesses across the nation are now safely reopening at levels like no one has seen before. we are sheltering individuals at the highest risk. at really high risk individuals, we are taking care of them. means older-risk people, senior citizens that problem.hey have a t

oklahoma might change the course of history. for the 1st time in the united states a doctor will be sued by the state for 2nd degree murder for over prescribing opioids here's the accused that to regan equals. a family doctor for over 22 years she is now suspected of being a prescription murderer. the judge has to ascertain if there is enough material to go to trial. the plaintiffs in the row have all lost a child a brother a friend from an opioid overdose. dr nichols was their doctor she was the one. scribing the trucks. let him serve unbox i'm an attorney in oklahoma city i practice cripple defense i've got a police officer and i've been a prosecutor and i've been a judge i've been here all my life born and raised in oklahoma. provided the hard the oil production we're right on the edge of we're cowboys are the and so we've got a lot of people in here that are hard working people and it's a pretty peaceful city as far as that goes. box knows these roads inside out and who's on 1st name terms with the local people all his caree

take tulsa, oklahoma, for example. tulsa, of course, was the site of the horrific race massacre, the tulsa race massacre of 1921, the massacre of african-americans by a group of white people who attacked an affluent african-american neighborhood in tulsa. they destroyed businesses. they attacked the black residents. they burned the whole community to the ground. hundreds of african-americans killed in that attack. thousands of people displaced. today tulsa held a fairly massive juneteenth celebration 99 years after the tulsa race massacre. there was a march through the city of tulsa. there were speeches and music. there were art lessons for the kids. in one of the more somber moments today, protesters walked an empty casket through the streets to remember the people who died during the race massacre almost a century ago. the importance of marking juneteenth has been enshrined in tulsa's culture for a long, long time now. community organizers had long planned for today to be a big juneteenth celebration in tulsa. they i

nebraska and oklahoma. we built the stockist economy the world has ever seen before -- strongest economy the world has ever seen before the virus. now we are doing it again. maybe we will start off with governor ricketts, then we will get to my friend over here. i will be seeing you so much in the next couple days i will take you second. cketts: wets -- ri appreciate your leadership to help us through this pandemic and give us the tools to manage it. the ppp program has been successful in nebraska because of the great relationships our community bankers have with our small businesses. we were able to cover 80% of our payroll. it was a fantastic way to keep people working. we had the third lowest unemployment rate in april. we appreciate the work you are doing. we were one of the few states that did not issue a stay-at-home order. we tried to take common steps and ask people to take responsibility to follow the directives you were putting out to avoiding large groups, washing your hands, and making sure they

we are at the museum located in the capital of the seminole nation of oklahoma wewoka, oklahoma. what we have here today is different exhibits that portray the history of the seminole people as a people before we were separated from our original homes in florida. i'm actually mikobooka, which means like the twin chief, i am the assistant chief for the seminole nation of oklahoma. i came into office in 2013, this is 2019. i'm in my second term and have two more years to fulfill this second term. i think, you know, of many tribes, over 500 native tribes in america, that the seminoles are a tribe of a people that are of interest. i think part of that interest is because the defiance that the seminoles had put up during the conflicts in earlier history to not be defeated. the only tribe in american history to never surrender when there was a war being fought against them would never surrender to the united states, nor sign an official peace declaration with the united states was the seminoles. so that brings a little bit of ambience to both people that live in the united states and i

jesse: michael is calling from oklahoma city, oklahoma. michael, good morning.aller: good morning, jesse. thank you for this program. i was taught in the 1950's and 60's in oklahoma, and i never heard a word about this. it was like 20 years ago, i don't know what happened in the news, it was brought up and it curiosity, and i went to the library and checked out a book and read about it. very interesting, and more amazing was that no one knew about it. it was just 20 years ago that this became public information. the suppression of yet was just incredible. and i don't think the civil war is over. we are still fighting it. we have a confederate in the white house and we are still that white supremacist civil war in this country. this questionn: tulsa race massacre was unheard of is one that comes up a lot. unheard of, but it is heard of. it is kind of an open secret. there is a history of suppression that takes place immediately after the massacre, and for years that follow. disregard ofalso a the information that was actually printed within the black press. that

i think that's the difference with oklahoma. again, i'm not worried about that in oklahoma.ot great security there and the people are fantastic. we're excite todd have the president coming -- excited to have the president coming. leland: we know the national guard has been called out. and there's some of those on scene. it looks more like a g-20 summit in terms of security. tulsa has its own unique history as relates to race and we think about the massacre and riots about 100 years ago. is this something that you're concerned of the president being a lightning rod on this issue in oklahoma or of do you expect him to address it and try to quell some of the anger on the streets there. >> we're not concerned at all about that and the president will probably be mentioning that in his speak tonight. we had a race riot, race massacre in 1921. i've been doing panels across the state with our african-american communities and we appropriated 1.5 untilled in our last budget session to build a museum and memorialize that. we've got great relationships. again, we believe in unity in okl

wewoka, oklahoma. what we have here today are different exhibits that portray the history of the people. as a people, before we were separated from our homes, from our original homes in florida. i am actually the twin chief. i am the assistant chief. of the seminole nation of oklahoma. i came into office in 213. this is 2019, i'm in my second term. i have two more years to fulfill my term. of over 500 native tribes in america, the seminoles are a tribe of people of interest. part of that interest is the defiance the seminoles put up during the conflicts and earlier history. to not be defeated. the only tribe in american history to never surrender when there was a war being fought against them. would never surrender to the united states nor sign official peace declaration with the united states, was the seminole. that brings ambience to both people who live within the united states and internationally. i think international people know who the seminoles are simply because of that history. all tribes hav

governor of oklahoma. we're going to be in oklahoma. it's a crowd like nobody has seen before. we have a tremendous request forren tickets that's never happened politically before. one of the reasons we chose your state, as you know, was that you have done so well with covid. you have handled it incredibly well. 2rc we're taking care of them. we know what high risk means. but largely it means older people, senior citizens that have a tremendous problem. if they have a heart problem, diabetes, any kind of a problem. much more us is is septemberable. we're all watching that very closely. we have learned a lot over the last number of months. we have conducted over 25 million coronavirus tests and sdribted over 1.5 billion pieces of ppe. you look at what we have done with ventilators. we're making thousands a week. very big, expensive, complex equipment. we're sending them to other countries and we're all stocked up. everybody has the maximum ventilators. but we are sending them to other countries. the nice part, and i say it a lot because it's pretty amazing. when we came here, yo

will be an oklahoma and tulsa oklahoma. if not. felt it was a slap. heard we are still partying. and suffering i haven't heard him open we can break this. this. morning but over a 1000000 people. so many people are over. there we've never had an empty seat and we certainly were. also on the day of the un's high commissioner for refugees program and he talks about the need for a global response to global challenges and if we don't work together we won't be able to overcome them he's teaching a lesson every day not that we're learning very much and he's teaching us this lesson. welcome to the day we begin with a u.s. presidential campaign in a time after national turmoil we know donald trump draws energy from big events and his adoring base but will saturday's comeback rally in tulsa cost him precious political capital health officials are warning that it has the potential to become a super spreader eventful coronavirus it'll be doles in. wearing of masts will not be compulsory and this in the state of oklahoma which this week has seen a record number of the number of new infection

why come to oklahoma? when we see him coming in to oklahoma, we know a lot of people will travel across this state and come to oklahoma and we're asking all of our members and supporters not to go down to that rally. that's how we continue our support. >> and adam, why oklahoma? >> i mean, i'm not sure. i think obviously the president draws a lot of his personal security and self-esteem from this back and forth with the crowds that he hasn't been able with his crowds of supporters which he hasn't been able to do since the pandemic started and for some reason they decided to have this rally indoors, which is going to increase the potential contagion risk for everyone. as opposed to having it outdoors, where it might be safer. but i think it's very clear that he wants to be in a space where he can bask in the adulation of his supporters and where his supporters, quite frankly, can celebrate him. so i think this is a part of an emotional feedback loop that has been part of the trump campaign since the beginni

ok let me take you to tulsa oklahoma this is u.s. president donald trump walking into the bank of oklahoma center in the center of tell us he was quoted as saying that something the trumpet ministration was quoted as saying there have been a 1000000 applications for tickets to this event this stadium holds 19000 people in the pictures we've been seeing up to this point do show a significant amount of empty space this is the 1st rally that donald trump has held since the outbreak of the coronavirus in the u.s. it comes at a difficult week for him and his attorney general has been trying to oust a powerful u.s. attorney who's been investigating a number of associates of the president and also there's been a series of unflattering bombshells released in a new book by the former national security adviser as we were telling you just a couple of moments ago. ok let's go live to our reporter jay gray who's outside the stadium in tulsa jane just give us while we're waiting for donald trump to step up to the stadium and i will interrupt you w

this is the bank of oklahoma arena in tulsa, oklahoma. holds 19,000 people and it is nowhere close to being full. despite the fact that there's lots of space in that arena as you can see, lots of seats available. there is no social distancing taking place in any meaningful way. there are very few masks in the room. outside there are marches under way, a protest under way by supporters of black lives matter. the trump campaign has said that they canceled the outside event because their attendees were being intimidated by protesters and media though i'll talk to our reporter about that in a second. not quite sure whether that is true. this is where the event was to take place. they are

we'll be in oklahoma in tulsa oklahoma what a majority if not all. felt that it was a slap a real hard. part. of an hour ago hoping we can be on break this. morning but over a 1000000 people. so many people are over. with now that are there to see and we certainly were. also on the day the un's high commissioner for refugees program and he talks about the need for a global response to global challenges and if we don't work together we won't be able to overcome them. every day not that we're learning very much that he's teaching us this lesson. welcome to the day we begin with a u.s. presidential campaign in a time of national turmoil we know donald trump draws energy from big events and his adoring base but will saturday's comeback rally in tulsa cost him precious political capital health officials are warning that it has the potential to become a super spreader event for coronavirus it'll be a dose of the wearing of masts will not be compulsory and there. in the state of oklahoma which this week has seen a record number of the number of new infectio

but the oklahoma supreme court has said tonight the rally can go on as planned. the justices said the plaintiff can't point to anything here that would show there is a law that has been violated in one of the current concerns is it is not the duty of this court to fashion rules or regulations where none exist, simply to achieve the desired outcome. >> that is true. it is the law of common sense that is the problem. in fox's own poll, the public sees does donald trump care about people like you, he's 20 points underwater on that question, joe biden is comfortably had. the country was asked in a fox poll do you think it is wise to have big rallies, almost 3:1 the public says no it is quite unwise and every single expert, sachi, they have flattened, the president says coronavirus is fading away. mike pence's is declining precipitously, that is delusional or misleading the public. it despite. we had all-time highs in oklahoma over the past few days in the number of cases so is within first amendment right? yes. is this a superspreader event in the minds of every heal

and we will not see that in tulsa, oklahoma. reporter: [inaudible] >> what he meaning the kind of lawlessness before he calmed our streets with law and order. reporter: on dahl -- daca, he said he was going to move ahead with trying to end that program. what is the time frame on that? when should we expect to see something with homeland security. he's conceded that that the immigrants that were brought here as children should be taken care of? >> one note on daca. one thing i would say about yesterday's ruling is that really this was a situation where you had all of the justices saying that president trump was essentially right on the law on daca. you had the majority. and the majority opinion "the dispute before the quote is not weather d.h.s. may rescind daca. the dispute isiness stead the procedure the agency followed in doing so." president trump was right on the law. it was unlawful the way president obama went about this. but as for the way forward, i was speaking with the president and the chief of staff about this. and w

let's start with tulsa, oklahoma. the crowd will be huge.ses in that state are up 110% from last week. masks will be handed out. but they're not mandatory. is that enough to protect people in a crowded indoor venue? >> it's not. this is a high-risk undertaking. superspreader events have been important drivers. if that's a church or a pub or the mardi gras festival in the u.s. i'm extremely concerned, as most in public health are, about the risk posed by getting 17,000 people into an enclosed indoor space. >> it's not just oklahoma. as we heard, seeing a huge rise in cases. 23 states have seen spikes in cases, compared to just last week. what is going wrong in the u.s. why are we seeing this? >> it comes down to a total failure of leadership. at this stage of the pandemic, we knew enough about how the virus spreads, how it kills and how to stop it, that we've got a playbook that does work. unfortunately, that hasn't been followed in many parts of the country. what happened was, in many states, things reopened too quickly and we're now startin

>> so we are all onboard with going to oklahoma. we're taking appropriate measures like hand sanitizing, and temperature checks and masks provided at the door. and the governor of oklahoma says that most of the cases he's seeing is in the 18 to 35 where they're seeing a slight increase. and they are asymptomatic individuals, a lot of what they're seeing. and in addition to that i would also note that he said that this plight increase began as they reopened 56 days prior. reporter: will any white house officials be at the rally tomorrow? press sec. mcenany: there will be several white house officials at the rally tomorrow. reporter: will you be there, for example? press sec. mcenany: i will be there. reporter: will you and other officials be wearing masks? press sec. mcenany: it's a personal choice. i won't be wearing masks. and i can't speak with my colleagues. reporter: why won't you wear a mask? is a personal political statement? is it because the president would be disappointed if you wear a mask? sec. mcenany: it is a personal d

and oklahoma, one of the reasons that the trump campaign gave in saying that they were going to oklahomao begin with, not a swing state at all. that's pretty clearly in the bag for the president, if history is any indication, is because they're already in phase three of the opening. and the governor there was very reluctant even early on to shut things down. the mayor of tulsa working hand in hand with the mayor of oklahoma citing those are the two biggest cities in that state. they were more restrictive than the statewide rules. so that just kind of gives you a sense of where the mindset is in oklahoma, and, frankly, we know from polling and just from anecdotal evidence that people who are trump supporters feel they are probably not going to be as worried as perhaps they should be. >> they should be worried according to the oklahoma health commissioner, according to the cdc. chief ramsey, let's talk about the efforts to engage in police reform, the president's executive order part of a series of relatively modest reforms based on what you know, you're a law enforcement authority on thes

morgan chesky with really fantastic reporting there from the ground in tulsa, oklahoma. we appreciate it. joining me to discuss all of this is mark lauffer for president trump's 2020 campaign. mark, it is so great to see you. i appreciate your joining us on a really important morning, juneteenth. i want to start off by asking you about something that president trump just tweeted. let me show you the tweet. he said, quote, any protesters, anarchists, agitators, looters or low lives who are going to oklahoma, please understand you will not be treated like you have been in new york, seattle or minneapolis. it will be a much different scene. what does he mean? is the president threatening protesters, mark? >> well, the president supports peaceful protests and people who are exercising their first amendment rights. if we see what we have seen in other cities with rioting, looting, setting buildings on fire and physical violence, that's going to be something that would be met by police and it would be handled appropriately. we encourage peaceful protests, we encourage people w

tell howyou want to well oklahoma has done? vice pres. pence: yes, speaking to governor kevin stitt in the last several days and even earlier today, and oklahoma has really been at the forefront of ,ur efforts to slow the spread and in a very real sense, they flattened the curve, and today, there hospital capacity is abundant. the number of cases in oklahoma has declined precipitously, and we feel very confident going forward with the rally this

we begin in tulsa, oklahoma, where president trump is due to hold his first election rally since theonavirus pandemic hit the us in march. this was the scene outside the venue a short while ago. 19,000 people are expected at the indoor arena. they'll be asked to sign a waiver, ruling out legal action if they contract covid—19. it's already being reported that six of the trump campaign's advance team have tested positive for the virus. in a moment, we'll bring you the thoughts of a local republican on the rally — but first, here's the chair of the oklahoma black caucus. we cannot speak for other folks, we're not going to be distracted here in tulsa, oklahoma as it relates to the behaviour of other folks. what we're going to do is remain focused on votes that we have upcoming as it relates to health care — very needed — as it relates to action that deals with police reform. we have here in america, as i know you've seen, george floyd, who had a knee on his neck, and he died and he expelled his last breath for the world to see. well, guess what — before george floyd, there was a derrick

morgan radford also in oklahoma. this is going to be in a city with a bloody past when it comes to race. what are the folks in greenwood saying about the timing of president trump's visit? >> reporter: the timing is certainly controversial here, craig. we're standing here ahead of their juneteenth celebration. it's special here because it comes on the heels of honoring what's called the greenwood mass care. this is a historically black district. back in 1921 a group of white rioters and looters came and looted this area, killed 300 black people, wounded 800 black people and left thousands homeless. that was a big hit. this was the center of black life. they called it black wall street. you had more than 30 blocks where i'm standing filled with movie theaters and banks and grocery stores. this is where the community came to congregate. what's fascinating is the effects of those two bloody days still affect the city today. take a listen to what one black business owner right here in greenwood told me. >> we're not real

>> redman: i think oklahoma does have it right.ean, to me, the most important duty that parents have, citizens have, is to take care of our children. >> alfonsi: you like that the law is broad. >> redman: i do. i have had defendants who were charged with failing to protect that got county jail time, because the case-- that's what it was worth. >> alfonsi: but how do you make sense of these cases where the abuser, who's a man, goes to prison for less time than a woman who's charged with enabling? >> redman: maybe one party asked for a jury trial, and the jury is incensed by what they see and hear. maybe the other party took responsibility early on, and-- and admitted their guilt, and-- and took a plea offer. so every case is different. >> alfonsi: she says the case of cheyenne wolf is a good example. the 12-year-old endured abuse for years at the hands of her stepmother, denise. her father, abel wolf, knew about the beatings and did nothing to stop it. >> redman: he had become uncomfortable with the situation. >> alfonsi: uncomforta

why is this right for oklahoma? victor, it doesn't really make any difference what the president is going to do. there's going to be some people in the media that will find something to criticize him about. the fact is we're all responsible for our health. there's a certain mitigated risk we do everyday living life. there's a certain amount of risk you live going to work. you get gas. you go grocery shopping. and we all are responsible for our own health. at the end of the day, if you're one of those individuals that's high at risk, this probably isn't a place that you should go to. but you know, we all have a separate level of mitigating that risk. and we're responsible for it. at the end of the day, the people that are there are there because they want to be there because we have the right to be there and they're going to exercise that right. we're excited about it. in tulsa, oklahoma, and oklahoma as a whole, we are super excited that the president of the united states is choosing to kick off his campaign in okla

this is the bank of oklahoma arena in tulsa, oklahoma. the arena holds 19,000 people and it is nowhere close to being full. despite the fact that there's lots of space in that arena as you can see, lots of seats available. there is no social distancing taking place in any meaningful way. there are very few masks in the room. outside there are marches under way, a protest under way by supporters of black lives matter. the trump campaign has said that they canceled the outside event because their attendees were being intimidated by protesters and media though i'll talk to our reporter about that in a second. not quite sure whether that is true. this is where the event was to take place. they are starting to dismantle it. 8:00 p.m. this is when the president is supposed to be speaking. there does not seem to be an overflow crowd on the outside. six members of donald trump's staff have been taken ill or tested positive for coronavirus including two members of the secret service. according to nbc reporting they have been on the ground in oklah

, for the healthcare systems of oklahoma, and for the hospitals of oklahoma, because you have exactly to three weeks to massively scale up testing. you're going to need 19,000 of them plus everyone that those folks have contacted. you're going to need massive amounts of contact tracing. you're going to need emergency department personnel. you're going to need ventilators, and you're going to need staff to man those ventilators, respiratory therapists, and you have kind of three weeks to get it together. >> all right, dr. walensky, dr. reiner, good to have you here. >>> next, to atlanta. an arrest warrant has been issued for the woman suspected in the arson that burned down the wendy's where rayshard brooks was shot and killed by police. and we're learning she may have known brooks. a live report is ahead. at cancer treatment centers of america, treating cancer isn't just what we do, it's all we do. and now, we're able to treat more patients because we're in-network with even more major insurance plans. so, if you've been turned down before, call us now. wherever you may go, lexus will

the oklahoma supreme court has said no, the rally can go on as planned. the plaintiff can't point to anything here that would show that there is a lot of has been violated. one of the occurrences by justi dustin rowe, it is not the duty get the this the score to pressure ulcer regulations were they do not exist simply to achieve a desired outcome. richard? >> that's true. it is the law of common sense that is the problem here. in foxpro site on pole, the question is does president trum can care about people like you and he is 20 points underwater on the question and joe biden i comfortably ahead. do you think it is wide to have a big rally? by 3-1 the public says no, it i unwise. and every single health expert, fauci, burger, says this is not a smart thing. the president says coronavirus is fading away. mike pence says that it is declining precipitously. that is delusionally misleading the public. we have an all-time highs and oklahoma over the past few days in the number of cases, so is i within the first amendment right ? yes. is this a super spreader e

this despite the fact cases are on the rise here in oklahoma. as you mentioned, you are able to get a mask as you walk in. they hand a mask to anyone will to take one but they are not required. we do see some people wearing masks in the crowd. we did catch the campaign manager, brad parscale, he made a walk through the venue not too long ago. he is wearing a mask but most trump campaign staffers are not. eric trump made a run through media row and he was not wearing a mask. but there are warnings across the building about the threat of coronavirus. in fact when you walk into the venue, there is a sign that warns every single person about the risk they are taking in being inside this venue with the threat of coronavirus. still, regardless of all those warnings, the warning not only from national public health officials but public health officials that asked for this rally to be postponed, this rally is happening here tonight. we should point out, we're about three hours away from the president's appearance. there's still a lot of seats available

the state of oklahoma once the lawsuit to go before a criminal court. i think she acted extraordinarily recklessly so what my bill is is to berks file a motion to allow the jury to hear all the other victims that died as a result from that which is off so the jury can get a picture of what she was doing here and there are many. women died as it was why she should have been on the type of medication and each one especially diabetic. you think would be evidence that is absolutely fail to show. this is. the law is very clear about what is a murder case and what's going on there's other cases involved. frankly with. egregious conduct in this. meeting you just see that make those or you just say it's very confident. you're waiting for the doctor. should be brought in could we have an interview with her maybe later as soon as the case dismissed you. all along the hearing dr nichols seems detached from the events surrounding her but they can look on her face she will never speak as if none of this were her concern . if the judge has reached a ruling. dr nichol

with me now is oklahoma state representative regina goodwin, chair of the oklahoma legislative black caucus. thank you so much, representative for joining us. >> thank you. >> i wonder what you make of the decision to have this speech in tulsa and also what you would have said to the president had he told you that he planned to deliver this speech in tulsa? >> well, in many case, he did tell us that he planned to deliver the speech and he will do so. what we say here in tulsa is we're not going to be distracted. we have real issues going on that need to be addressed and i tell you in many ways we have reached out to the federal government as it relates to the disadvantaged enterprise, support services which has not received funding from the federal government in the last few years. that would be helpful here in tulsa, oklahoma. as it relates to under the cover of covid-19, we see that affirmative action has been cut as it relates to contracting. there are real issues on the ground here in tulsa that we would like those federal dollars, our money to come back to oklahoma. as it relate
