attorney general shapiro says he'll defend the pennsylvania court ruling. >> shapiro: i will tell youthere's an extraordinary amount of hypocrisy that's going on right now within the republican party. donald trump and his family vote by mail. >> trump: now the good news is we have a lot of court cases. we have one in pennsylvania, you know that right? >> whitaker: the trump campaign, the g.o.p., democrats and interest groups continue battling in court in pennsylvania and most other states. >> trump: so we'll see what happens. >> whitaker: do you expect that there will be lawsuits that will continue on election day? >> shapiro: i can tell you my team and i, along with others around the country, are preparing for all kinds of outcomes. sadly we have to fear that we have a sitting president of the united states that may take legal action to try and stop certain legal votes from being counted. >> whitaker: back in philadelphia, the election commission is taking over a larger space to process election ballots. republican al schmidt told us the state supreme court ruling provided some clari

ben shapiro the great book how to destroy america in three easy steps. it is very poignant, and it is very oppression and timely ben shapiro. so here's my question to you. liberty is a wonderful thing. means different they thinks to different people i won't get into positive, regular, it is liberty. when you see what's going on on the streets today the very people who attack the founding fathers, and the constitution are exercising the rights under the bill of rights. so some of them were slave holders. some of them weren't slave holder you know when they ratify first ten amendment that include southern states so you have their freedom of speech, freedom of the press, freedom of the association, due process, the right to bear arms. you know. and so forth and so on. so people are exercising these rights under the bill of rightings. but they got from men who were slave holders and men who weren't slave holders trying to destroy the country from within. how do we explain this? how do we deal with this? >> i think one of the things that is happened is that i

joining me now is pennsylvania's attorney general josh shapiro. thank you so much for your time. see on thursday? >> we're trying to move it along as quickly as possible in order to give the public confidence in the system that the president and his handpicked crony of a postmaster general louis dejoy have sought to undermined. we were able to go through the documents the postal service, they have confirmed what we already know, louis dejoy and the leadership at the united states postal service made concrete and illegal changes back in july that had the effect of slowing down the mail and while i know he testified, ayman, before congress and said, he wouldn't make any other changes going forward, the reality is the damage is already done, we can prove it, and the effect of that damage is that it has slowed down the mail, and made it more of a process for voters than it needs to be and that's why we're in federal court fighting back not just behalf on the voters here in pennsylvania but i organized a coalition of attorneys general from across the country to help us in this battle

ilya shapiro, it has been a pleasure to talk to you. thank you for taking the time.eral assembly got under way this week, with the world's leaders giving recorded video addresses because of the coronavirus pandemic. president xijinping, says china had "no intention of entering a cold war with any country," after president trump said the chinese must be held accountable unleashing covid—19 on the world. the un secretary general warned everything must be done to avoid a new cold war. so, what is the current state of the relationship, between beijing and washington? our world affairs editorjohn simpson gives his assessment. china's new—found strength is everywhere, confronting taiwan and hong kong. taking on australia, japan, india. sparring with donald trump. they let the plague out. they shouldn't have done it. china uses its economic muscle right around the world. this week it was accused of ordering barbados to ditch the queen. in the years when china was building up its strength and wealth, its official slogan was a modest one, "hide your light and bide your time."

ilya shapiro there.s in thailand have installed a plaque near bangkok's grand palace proclaiming that the country belongs to the people and not the monarch. protests calling for the resignation of the government and reform of the monarchy have continued on sunday. activists camped out overnight in a field near the royal palace after tens of thousands joined the demonstrations on saturday. 0ur correspondentjonathan head is in bangkok and joins me now. jonathan, how unusual is this protest movement? well, protest movements aren't unusual but this one has got a whole lot further than any in living memory in terms of addressing theissue memory in terms of addressing the issue of the monarchy. i'm right here in this field. behind me you can see the littering historic royal palace, that is where the coronation of the current king took place, the funeral of his much loved father and a little bit over in that direction is where they put down this very small block today, a blood that was removed from another part

josh shapiro is joining us now. attorney general, thanks so much for joining us.ow concerned are you for getting an accurate vote? these ballots and voting are going to be critical. >> the voting is going to be critical and people's participation is going to be critical. i'm not concerned at all. i think it's a matter of educating voters how to volt by mail, how to vote at a voting center, or how to vote in person. wolf, i brought a ballot with me. this is a pennsylvania ballot. it looks like this. you fill it out, fold it up, and stick it in one of these secrecy envelopes. you sign the back of the envelope, put it all in, and mail it in on time. a constituent, megan, equated it with a wedding invitation this. is not hard or controversy. it's simply voting. the president is trying to sow doubt. he's trying to create chaos with voting when, in fact, it's a simple thing to do and it's our job to educate voters on the best way to do that. but i'm confident our institutions, no matter what kind of attacks are leveled against the president will with stand those attacks

kyle: well what shapiro said it pretty well.e live in ginsburg's world and when i say that i'm thinking about some of the cases that she worked on the in the 70's before on the court. there was a case involving different drinking ages for young men and young women. there was a case involving different treatment of men and women in jury service and in social security survivor benefits and in 2020, it is unsunkable of a law that we treat women differently. that's part of her legacy. paul: it's interesting to me, dan, the collegiality, we have a piece from ken starr praising her -- how easy she was to get along and even though you disagree on the law, very little of that goes on outside of the supreme court. dan. daniel: i think that's the point, paul, those days are over, you know, another example of that was famously ronald reagan and house speaker tip o'neil who supposedly got together after the sun went down and would share a glass of scotch and tell jokes to one another. those days are gone. the polarization is almost complete

people who are getting exposed to content, they're getting exposed to conservative content from ben shapiroam, from bright bart. and so, it's a world that is very responsive to the message that you're hearing from donald trump. >> an alternative reality, for sure. one quick question before i let you go, jim -- well, i am told that is all the time i have. jim vandehei, thank you very much. i will be reading "axios a.m." in just a little while. sign up for the newsletter at signup.axios.com. that's it for me this wednesday morning. i'm alicia menendez.

that presents a unique opportunity for jake shapiro.ssor at princeton with a team of researchers studying covid misinformation on a global scale. >> 2,00 dat2,400 databases. the ability to say what the trends have been in countries around the world. a drumbeat around the nation and status around particular individuals. misinformation about nature of the virus, origin of the virus, things like that that is really dropped off dramatically. it's not really as credible as it once was to say, hey, this thing is just like a seasonal flu. like, generally people understand that's not true. >> some of this information is simply bizarre. a tweet from a fake cdc account claiming this actor had the virus, but some could carry long-term implications. >> the narratives we track and clear political motives. promote the policy for particular actor or denigrate the response or undermine a particular institution in a society. what that suggests to me is that the people using this information for political purposes are going to hop on whatever the issue o

i listened to ben shapiro. i listened to a tape of rush limbaugh. i looked at the top trending stories on facebook, all of them from right-wing sites, and watched fox news. it's not just donald trump who's talking about this. this is all that the infrastructure of sort of the modern republican party is talking about this. you would think that every city is on fire, that every city is being looted, that donald trump is the one man who stands up for law enforcement. and their belief is -- and i do think you're right -- their belief is that, eventually, that will get people, even if they won't tell a pollster, get them to vote for donald trump because they will be scared stiff by election day. i have no idea if it will work, but there is no doubt that this is not just donald trump anymore. it is the entire infrastructure. and i think it's an infrastructure that most people in the media don't pay that much attention to, so they don't realize the implication of that. and it works both ways. a lot of the conspiracy theories he was talking about in that fo

joining me attorney general shapiro. you just heard my conversation with the senator there. some are brushing off the president's comments, particularly republicans. they say he always says crazy stuff. this nothing to worry about. this isn't just words. you're actually in court battles with the trump campaign over mail-in voting? >> that's exactly right. while i tend to discount the president's words, when he does attack our voting system in court, as he has done here in pennsylvania to make it harder for people to actually cast their vote, then we respond. we go to court as we did in this case and said to the president, okay, mr. president, you keep alleging this fraud, you keep saying there are problems, put up or shut up. give us the evidence that back up those claims that you make. >> can i ask you -- i'm sorry. i don't mean to interrupt. i do want to ask you on that because it's relevant. the white house is pointing to nine ballots found discarded in pennsylvania that were supposed to be cast for president trump. highly unusual statement from doj, fbi director christop

it is not miley targeted voter suppression that uses covid to keep voters away from the polls. >> shapiro is the same russian interference we saw in 2016. >> the director of the national intelligence center came out and said russia is working hard to influence the 2020 election through social media. there is a direct assault by a foreign country on the integrity of our political discussion in our country. this is like a direct effort to impersonate americans and produce content that is appearing as though it is produced in our zmun are we in a better position now than we were four years ago? >> now there are multiple companies that have large staffs working on this. and all the platforms are out there looking for it. the intelligence community is tracking it. and various aspects of the federal government are tracking it. so there is like way more being done now than there was then. that's a much better situation for our democracy than in 2016. >> nbc's ben collins reporting. >>> as restaurants and food workers struggle across the country, joy reid and andrew zimmer explore the food-relate

we can now speak to ilya shapiro, who's the director of the robert a levy center for constitutional studiesgood to talk to you. thanks for your time. who is your money on here? well, the front runner going into all of this was amy barrett. she was one of the finalist last time around. a p pa re ntly finalist last time around. apparently being groomed. definitely the favourite of the conservative legal elites. the only wrinkle so close to the election, robert let go from the swing state of florida a key demographic that's the kind of throwing politics into the mix. i think allison is too young. do you think that it will happen given that the republicans control the senate? there is virtually nothing the democrats can do to stop it is they are? not legally. it's all a matter of does mitch mcconnell the senate majority leader have the votes? trump will make a nomination at some point this week. and then the multidimensional chess or game theory starts. i imagine that you just very committee will ta ke you just very committee will take up the nominee. they will very likely be a hearing at least

we can now speak to ilya shapiro who's the director of the robert a levy center for constitutional studiesto institute and publisher of the cato supreme court review. hejoins us now from washington. does anyone in america think that the nomination confirmation process works as it should? well, as ijust wrote in my book that is coming out ina wrote in my book that is coming out in a couple of days, supreme disorder, we are at a point where the supreme court is enveloped by the same toxic my asthma that envelops the rest of our public discourse. how we have got here is an interesting story. politics, as it turns out, has been part of the process from the beginning. george washington, the first president, had a nominee to the supreme court rejected, for example. what is different now is that we have a combination of several major trends where different interpretive theories map onto partisan preferences ata time map onto partisan preferences at a time when the parties are more ideological in distinct and sorted then they have been at least since the civil war, if not ever. so as the supreme c

dan, you heard shapiro, what you think about the choice of any coney barrett?: i think it's an excellent choice. i like the idea of a conservative woman eating on the supreme court. that is long overdue. i think amy barrett going to be a very productive and beneficial addition to the court as well as our politics. the basic argument is she does not believe judges should read their own values into decisions they make, they ought to discover whether the decisions are justified in terms of the constitution or the laws as they are written. judging in the last 50 years has strayed a long way away from that. reading into the decisions, i think the fact judge barrett will push back against that, as indeed justice gorsuch himself has revealed his desires as well in these opinions. i think that's rebalancing so all the way we think about the law, which justice amy barrett will do, it's long overdue. paul: kim, he said last week you thought he was important for the repugnance to move forward before the election so they look like they are doing that, do you think they can

we have back tonight josh shapiro, pennsylvania's attorney general. thank you for taking the opportunity to come back, appreciate that, and two in advance, pray for us, brother. i know yom kippur is coming but pray for us, we all need to atone and i appreciate any and all prayers. how did we screw this up. how did we think they were primary ballots when they were general election. >> last night was so much fun, i decided to come back for more here. >> that i've never heard. >> this is what happens when you have a president create chaos. when you have some of the leadership of the department of justice, seemingly get ahead of what really needs to happen in a fact finding mission which is to get all of the information. if you recall when you came on the air last night, there were two competing press releases that came out, the one that i think was left standing actually referenced the primary. the assumption was these ballots were from the primary. i took the time to chase down the facts and talk to the u.s. attorney and talk to the district attorney. a

you go on to any of the media sites that are dominated by people like ben shapiro and the breitbart folks and this is what they're pounding, pounding, pounding. the question is whether or not that will have any effect over time and whether or not the biden campaign can manage to amplify his message. i honestly think that joe biden gave a very effective speech earlier this week. i think that joe biden actually spoke to where most americans are right now. the question is, can he amplify it, or is it going to be drowned out with all of the white noise that we're used to getting from the trump white house? >> all right. charlie sykes, donna edwards, thanks to you both. >> new warnings that the post office isn't ready for a flood of mail-in ballots. i'll ask senator bob casey if there's a solution. >>> plus help could be coming for renters on the verge of eviction, but there's a catch. first, big night for incumbents in massachusetts. senator ed markey held off a primary challenge from congressman joe kennedy. first loss for the kennedy family in massachusetts ever. and incumbent congressman r

the state's attorney general for pennsylvania josh shapiro joins me now. mr. a.g., thank you. >> good to be with you. >> so the context of the concern is not that it was just a handful of ballots, nine ballots, seven of them for trump, so not that widespread. i don't want to exaggerate the context. i want to exaggerate the concern if anything, which is your primary, you had 37,000 rejected mail-in ballots. the trump margin of victory in 2016 was about 44,000 votes. so every vote in your state counts. you had so many kicked out in 2020 why should it make the voters there and the people watching all over the country concerned that your process is too easy to screw up? >> yeah. well, chris, first off i think it is important that people take a deep breath and examine the facts here. you kind of conflate two different situations. let's talk about both for a second. in the primary, which was really the first time pennsylvania was doing vote by mail, many other states had done it earlier, there were certainly some issues with counties having to learn the process and

attorney general shapiro, appreciate your time. thank you so very much. >> good to be with you.o all of you for being with us. "ac 360" with anderson begins now. >>> hey, good evening. thanks for joining us. the day after the debate debacle and the question tonight really is now what? 73 million people witnessed last night's so-called debate and it's pretty clear this is the way it's going to be from here until at election election day. the non-partisan debate commission in charge of these presidential debates every four years made a statement today saying last night's debate made clear additional structure should be added to the format of the remaining debates to ensure a more ordinarily discussion of the issues. they don't know what to do. they didn't put out any specifics. they aren't sure, you can't cut off the person's mic, you can still hear them off mic. they can try to construct additional

conservative commentator ben shapiro said — ‘we all lost‘.we're going to work through the key moments and the fallout from an infamous night — starting with president trump passing up the chance to condemn white supremacists. you want to call them, what you want to call them? remake white supremacists. proud boys. stanback and stand by, but i'll tell you what, someone has to do something about anti—foot in the left! so, he didn't address white supremacy — but he did tell a far—right group, the proud boys, to ‘stand by‘. his son, donald trumpjunior, was asked about those comments by gayle king on cbs. proud voices considered a hate group. he told them tonight this, stand down and stand by. he did not condemn white supremacist groups and what does he mean by standby?” condemn white supremacist groups and what does he mean by standby? i do not know what he means by that. i don't know if those in speaker, beals talking about having them stand out, he is more than happy to condemn them. well, this is the reaction of washington post columnist brian

the view from india and speak to our josh defense analyst joins us via skype thank you very much mr shapiro for being with us on al-jazeera so conflicting claims from both sides once again can you tell us 1st what you know is happening right now at the line of actual control. well in broad starting from the beginning of may chinese troops started crossing the line of that true control it's called the elysee for short into indian territory and occupying indian territory the indian troops were not in their positions because been taking over 19 precautions and had been pulled back from the border. suffice to say that china and india then entered a sort of dialogue process to negotiate a chinese withdrawal but since then the chinese have been talking but only in receiving further and further into india and its new points of interest as well so there's a certain sort of build up that has been carried out from the indian military side as well brought on me that now boys. constructing each other on the border it's an extremely volatile and dangerous situation out there but china does not seem prep

now ben shapiro who has the daily wire and he is the top publisher on facebook and his podcast is incalifornia but will he move to texas, ainsley? or will he move some place else? ainsley: a lot of people go from california to texas because they don't have the state tax down there. that's not the only state. there's florida and he decided he is moving to nashville. he is going to go listen to some country music. ben said i have 75 people who work for me. he is giving them until october 1st to decide if they are going to go. about 80% of them are on board. that's the majority of his company picking up their families and moving there he says i have lived my entire life in california. this is his tweet. within weeks, we'll be taking our 75 jobs and leaves. we're not the first and we certainly won't be the last. terrible governance has consequences. and, brian, he talked about the how housing cost and home lufsness there that he is disappointed with. brian: absolutely. and fires on top of that obviously you can't blame the government for that taxes only going to go up he made that clear.

so even though you have a right wing media which is fox and everything else, ben shapiro, and all these other organizations now, but the main three stream media has also moved with them. because the fox makes a lot of money is the highest rated program on cable. so the media, they are in business. they are chasing after the same viewers. so the fact that now is it absurd that donald trump thanks he can win the election by defending can federate statues? i mean who's dedicated to confederate statues even the military and the republican party are seeing get rid of them. but john thanks it's a winner how can that be even if you have these horrible politics you think obama all kinds of problems. and the reason is, you are living in this bubble that is entirely lost control. by people who were there to a support donald trump and be teach you that the three of us are evil, trying to destroy her and trying to get you. anti- religious and anti- god. it's become impossible to break through that. it has to be defeated. it is like tempo, still living in the old world speak of the country but share

the whistleblowers complaint, i want to get to this question from stephen shapiro who said, i have led a problem -- program we looked at dhs primarily as an intelligence component and found that entity wanting. growyears later, should it into a domestic intelligence agency or focus on managing those departments? the right role? it relies on corrections. also, educators, sharing with state and locals. when charlie allen was the head, when i was there, he was very experienced. at getting thed analysis done and getting it out there. >> secretary napolitano? >> that is what i meant in my initial comments. the communications from the department. it needs to be in real time. it needs to get out to the fingertips of america. value-added.e that, which is viewed on television or in the newspaper. should be as a collector and distributor. into the state and local ecosystem. what about privacy concerns? internal and domestic threats ? we saw a recently when the agency was cleaning information from twitter, the kind of controversy that generated. legitimate privacy going forward? >> to the degree
