let's go to our panel, jessica and mo, also shawn steele and ron brown. ron, to you first, with the big picture here and the implications for the coming m midter midterms. every special election, we say focus on the final margin, not who won. what does this say? >> this put a big you sharpie underline on everything that's been happening since donald trump's victory in 2016. on the one hand, there was an unmistakable move toward the democrats in this district. o'connor won 65% of the vote there. an unprecedented showing for a democrat. he gained as well in delaware county, and not as much. that's what ultimately sank him, and republicans retaining very big margins with slightly disappointing turnout in the rural parts of the district. that's what we saw in virginia, alabama, and in pennsylvania, the distribution of the district was a little different, which allowed republicans to maintain this narrow lead. the incumbent had never won by less than 64%. but it points towards a november election in which the democrats are in a strong position against republica

let's discuss with our senior political analyst ron brown, political analyst molly ball. we know there's a disconnect. it's not new but to see it play out where you have five top officials in the white house briefing room and then hours later we're hearing a different message from the president, ron, this continued disconnect, these confusing mixed messages for folks is there a chance to see an end to it or is this the reality for the foreseeable future? >> i think this is the reality because the president has shown himself incapable of separating the national security threat to the u.s. from the questions about his own ledgitimacylegiti. it's more than just cognitive dissonance, it aamounts to what is undermining one of our greatest weapons in this struggle which is the opportunity to publicly shame and confront the russians and putin. the president far from doing that, from from in helsinki saying we know what you have been doing, we are aware of it, we will responsibility not only with sanctions but with our own measures, he goes out of his way to say well, he denied i

ron brown steen is with me, and renato mariotti.anthony scaramucci had to say about this. >> when you're protesting you don't have to be a shakespearean scholar, but when you're protesting and the words "doth protest too much" why are you protesting? if you're right on the facts the facts will unfold in a way that's favorable to you and you'll be better served not talking about it. >> doth the president protest too much? >> the scaramucci era. look, i think to me the core -- it's fascinating watching this debate within the president's camp because the idea that a sitting president would refuse to talk to a special counsel investigating a foreign government's attempt to influence the 2016 election seems politically incredible by historical standards. the issue hasn't been litigated but in the past bill clinton sat down with ken starr in part because they recognized that the signal it sends to the american public if you refuse to answer yeses about your behavior is dramatic and as republicans brace for what's happening in ohio today w

>> so four years ago the deadly police shooting of michael brown in ferguson, missouri, led to violent protests. i want to bring in captain ronin those responses, and he is the author of "13 days of ferguson." it is such an honor to have you here with us. all dressed up and not in uniform. not out there. it was a really trying time for the country, i think you will agree, racial unrest, and tensions between the communities and the police and all of that. is ferguson healing? where where is it in that process? >> i think it is inch by inch, and people are having the conversations, but it is inch by inch. just like our country is. >> 13 days, and did it seem longer than 13 days? >> yes, it really did. >> for all of the unrest. i remember going down to be with you and i remember the first live shot that i did with you, there were gunshots. >> yes. >> did you -- were you in fear, did you think that you were in fear for your life at any point? you might not make it? >> at some point i think that i did a few days in. at one point i talk about in the book, i thought about writing my wife a letter if something happened to me, but the

ron. i think it is black people and brown people. know, yours is a sophisticated analysis, but i think it is as ugly as it could be. let's not forget donald trump is -- became a politician by making up a racist lie about the first african-american president of the united states. >> but have you ever heard -- >> it is an essential part of it, jeffrey, but it is not all of it. >> do you remember -- jeffrey, i was going to say, do you remember a time when president warned of violence on the streets if his party loses? >> beats me. i can't remember it. >> i don't remember it either. >> no. >> all right. guys. there's more news we're following. north korea has just laid out the stakes as nuclear tensions with the united states clearly now ratcheting up again, as the president's understanding with kim jong-un now falling apart. ♪ we're voya. we stay with you to and through retirement. so you'll still be here to help me make smart choices? well, with your finances that is. we had nothing to do with that tie. voya. helping you to and through

ron desantis, in the race to replace term-limited republican gov. rick scott. (pam) california will become the first state to eliminate bail for suspects awaiting trial. governor jerry brownll replace bail with a risk-assessment system. this means most suspects arrested for non-violent misdemeanors will be released within 12-hours of being booked. people facing serous and violent felonies will not be eligible for pre-trial release. some people worry the bill will allow dangerous people to go free-- and they won't return for trial. supporters say the change will end the unfair practice of imprisoning people simply because they are poor. the new system will go into effect in october of next year. (pam) homeless veterans across northern california will soon be able to get some misdemeanor warrants dismissed ... without going to court. it is all part of an event called a "stand down"... which provides a wide variety of services to try to get homeless veterans back on their feet... including having a visiting judge hear their case.

republican ron desantis because the president the 800-pound gorilla in republican politics, nobody, desantis says, is more influential in motivating voters. now we see the president were pushing for mike brown in indiana. will it be enough to flip a key senate seat from blue to red? fox news politics editor chris stirewalt is here. good evening. the president very fired up in indiana, as we often see him. what i find interesting is that most of both of us in candidatn this race have embraced the president. we have a clip from a democrat campaigning. >> the fact is, joe donnelly works are for hoosiers, joining with president trump to build a wall and protect our borders. >> shannon: it sounds like both of them are going to trump a task like. >> in indiana, they need to. they are a very republican state. indiana has gone, i believe, twice, essentially, since the new deal, for a democratic nominee. one of of the most republican states. mike pence was the governor. joe donnelly should be dead made by any rights. but he has one advantage: nobody knows or nobody knew who mike braun is. now that allowed him to and make the republican nomination because people -- there were two congressmen running,
