maybe it's stacey next?u view it from a political perspective, why would she choose to talk about six weeks specifically? you think about the fetal heartbeat law in georgia -- not bill, but law, it says places limit that at six weeks. if she were elected, she would be very limited in terms of what she could do realistically to overturn that. but i think that talking about it in this way, she is seeking to challenge the logic behind it, and communicate to voters who are pro-choice and who are concerned about this that she is sort of thinking about it. "vote for me, maybe i can do something." politically, when he said let's talk about ten weeks, i think that's why she tried to say something at six weeks specifically, because that is what matches up with that law in georgia. >> kayleigh: guy, you had a thread on this yesterday. i asked the team to pull part of it. he said this, "for the sake of argument, let's accept that parsing by the left. can we agree there is a separate human heartbeat at ten weeks and tha

they had not really gotten a flavor of who stacey abrams is.nergy and caught lightning in a bottle and came close to winning. what happened afterwards. she spent three years complaining about fact she did win but won't concede and spent a lot of time raising money going all over the country and lately in the last year you had her talk about i want to be president and things like that. i think that is disconnected her with the voters. the democrat voters who supported her in 201 and independence thought she may be a fresh voice. they've seen the liberal parlance in her turning people away and look at brian kemp successful economically now and that's what she is facing. >> harris: she is going against the headwind of actual progress and success. difficult for anybody who runs against an incumbent. there is a little bit of the al gore effect going on with her as well. why didn't she meet the plane with the president? his low poll numbers wouldn't help but at this point if there were any bully pulpit the white house could throw behind her maybe the

in georgia, with the latest polls showing democrat stacey abrams trailing gop incumbent brian kemp.ing to close the gap by tapping into hundreds of thousands of new voters, especially in rural georgia. she spoke with blayne alexander for our series "power of the vote." >> how important is the state of georgia? >> georgia is essential. georgia is often a lead on what's going to happen across the country. >> reporter: that became abundantly clear in 2020. it was georgia that flipped blue for president biden. georgia that changed control of the u.s. senate. and a key factor in it all, stacey abrams. >> we found there were 800,000 people of color who were not registered to vote in georgia who were eligible. we knocked on the doors and asked them why aren't you registered, why aren't you voting? >> what did they tell you? >> because they didn't trust government, no one had asked and they felt overlooked. >> reporter: now abrams is looking to the same voters to help secure her own historic win. >> i'm running to become governor of georgia. if i'm successful -- when i am successful, i will

in part because of some republican crossover vote while stacey abrams is a little bit behind.nd of cobbe county this week, and they both had very effusive praise for each other. >> you mentioned the polls in the latest one from emerson college, showing that these races are very tight. and the senate, race is only two point difference between warnock and walker, a four-point difference between abrams and camp. both of those are within the margin of error. one of georgians to make of these super close races? >> it shows to me again the georgia remains the premiere battleground state in the nation and in 2020, joe biden and donald trump or divided by just 11,000 votes. we remain the most politically divided state in the nation, and even the smallest of voting baker changes could impact this race in a major way. that is why you can never count stacey abrams out, you can't count raphael warnock out, you can't count republicans out either. we could very well going to overtime in georgia. we could be facing the r-word, runoff in november or early december. >> i want to take a look at

good morning, stacey >> good morning, frank >> you said earnings and revenue are great. the real number to pay attention to is the inventory number plus 65%. 65% higher in north america. what does it mean for mnike goig forward? >> they said september trebnds were better. stock is down 10%. the number we care about is inventory. inventory up 65% in north america. that is 50% higher growth and inventory than sales that means we're going into another period of severe markdowns. they were very clear of the quarter we're in is going to be hit hard by markdowns. there is a lot of product that came in late last quarter and product that came in early for holiday as many brands didn't know about the timing with the supply chain issues. now they have to get rid of the stuff. it is focused in apparel rather than footwear. >> you hit on retailers. according to the long beach port, 70% of the items were brought in during september for the holidays that creates issues for nike and broader retail what does that mean for the holiday season will we see bigger deals than the last couple

we welcome congresswoman stacey plaskett of the virgin islands.congresswoman, always good to see you. i want to start with your special master ruling. does this make sense to you? >> most people in the legal profession are kind of shaking their heads at this one. it doesn't really, many of her arguments, she contradicts herself, the evidence doesn't support parts of her ruling. it's really a very convoluted opinion. to get her to a place where it appears she wanted to get to win the end anyway. and so the justice department right now has to make a determination what they are going to don't do about this ruling. >> let's say it holds. let's say this going to be a special master. it doesn't mean this thing flies out the window. there's just an independent third party. if there's wrongdoing, if trump did something bad, it doesn't mean that they are not going to go after him. >> that's correct. it's a delay on the part of the criminal investigation. but let's not forget that there is still a separate investigation going on, which is related to nationa

then you have this with stacey abrams at 44% and i'm a little bit confused on my numbers.you what you think the state of the race is. this week "the new york times" wrote a piece saying the democrats are worried that stacey abrams is way behind in their minds and they are worried she will lose to you. >> well, thank you, guys, for having me this morning. i know the country and the world is mourning the loss of the queen. we're morning the loss of two of georgia's finest who got gunned down last night, two cobb county sheriff's deputies serving a warrant. i want to say my condolences on their families. people in georgia are focused on what the issues on. i had outside noise play into that. stacey abrams is more worried about her doanors in california and new york want her to do but what the people in georgia need to flight inflation and the gas pump and grocery stores and what's happening at the border. the president who said he wouldn't raise taxes on hard working people in the middle class in the country has done that and they are increasing spending when we have 9% infla

i think the people who promote these ideas like stacey abrams, they're not bad people.e blinded by compassion and severely misguided. >> harris: i think they are blinded by politics and what they want to do in their own careers. this is about also building a constituency that you think is going to vote democrat for a while. >> emily: a socialist one. remember a texas mirror on the southern border declared a public health state of emergency. he was vilified for it to try to allocate resources to cover the migrant surge. now the d.c. mayor doesn't. >> carley: i love what douglas said, the farther away you are from the border of the less you care about illegal immigration that is what governor abbott is doing. he is trying to bring the border to those mayors and governors who said that they don't really care about the issue, that he's bad for how he's handling it. and they are now not handling it well at all. >> emily: with the exception of the fentanyl overdoses that have impacted every state. that's why in that lawsuit filed by 23 states against the federal government th

suddenly we know that kemp is up by 8 over super star stacey abrams.e debate surged over warnock 46, 44. janel, you know a lot about the walker campaign. are you surprised? >> you know, i'm not surprised. i figured that when -- once they nailed down a debate that that was going to happen because i think people want to see walker on stage. we have seen warnock on the stage. so i think the debate definitely helped. as you know my husband ran this race our wedding anniversary today so happy birthday anniversary, honey. we are connected to the race but not the candidate or the campaign. we understand that the conversation around this race is that we know that warnock has pushed so many policies and voted with president biden so many times and all of these policies have hurt, particularly the black community and people who he claims to be supporting. so, what i want to see walker do is go on that stage and debate not just policy and not just political issues, but social issues as well. >> brian: stacey, real quick on this race, does walker? he lowered the b

you had stacey abrams on. the work of registering new voters is talking to people just like this, people that don't pay attention to politics. happen to be more moderate. they're younger. more likely to be people of color. you have to engage in difficult conversations to persuade people why they should get out of their house and vote. >> you mentioned dobbs. we couldn't play all that focus group that, is like a seismic shift. at least from this vantage point. i think it's something these voters really did not seem particularly concerned with other aspects of our democracy. they were disvalley concerned about. did you feel like this is going to be a catalytic event for young voters or -- is this going to drive them to the polls? i know i'm asking you a very big question for a limited sample size. but what was the feeling that you had when you talked to these guys about dobbs? >> i did the first focus group right when the decision leaked then i did the last focus group tend of august. but every single focus grou

everyone thinks brian kemp is beating stacey abrams right now.g good feelings about walker's position. close race. kind of a purplish state. but people are feeling some momentum in georgia and a lot has to do with walker's improvement as a candidate and obviously we're getting into crunch time now. but good vibes down there. >> it's definitely shifted among people that i've talked to. earlier in the summer i would say republicans were very concerned about walker's state of -- state of the campaign, the way that he was coming across. >> he's out there a lot. he's out on the trail a lot. i can see a certain charm there. >> now he is. he has a background, a lot of people know who he is just because of that and the debate is potentially a challenging moment for him because some of the things we have seen that he doesn't often communicate his message in a way that certainly many republicans in washington would prefer. >> he's going to be asked about issues, though. it's not a question -- >> in the upcoming debate. >> it's one thing to say i'm not all

the left's immediate and fierce defense of stacey abrams, in defiance of the science, i'll have you know

the fox news survey black voters supporting stacey abrams was 98% and now 78%.ent in order to win an election. the issue is vote share. when black men vote they vote for me. what else did you learn yesterday? >> it was a wide ranging interview. listen, i think the minority leader acknowledges that she is behind in the polls. she points to incumbency as part of the problem. all pointing to the fact she is not looking at the polls. she is trying to build a new electorate. she acknowledges there is a long way to go but she is creating the largest voter outreach campaign ever and really trying to recreate the biden coalition. it is worth pointing out in 2020 her nonprofit fair fight was part of the building blocks and the cornerstone of the biden coalition in georgia and trying to rebuild that and try to make it stronger than ever to hopefully get her over the hump in a potential defense against brian defrm and also pointed to a laundry list of issues that she will attack the governor on. one for the past eight years in the state of georgia 14 hospital closures, six

i want to start with you, stacey, how would you describe this documentary?cumentary. >> i think the documentary is designed our hope and goal is to lift up educators as credible forces in this divisive world we are living in as people are throwing around accusations, showing like you said clips, all these things are going on. educators are on the front lines in schools every single day, the students that they teach have very inspiring stories to tell. educators really do have an inside look on why it is so important that students had the opportunity to discuss their identity, to discuss the things that impacts their development and growth. so this documentary is really designed to give us a new voice in the dialogue, what i believe is a credible voice and a reasoned voice in the dialogue. and to actually talk to the people who were most impacted by what was going on in the country right now. >> yeah, paul, i think this whole effort to change the narrative, a lot of people bought into a feeble about who they believe america to be. the next goal is to be let's

and that governor toil race, so i'm not really feeling stacey abrams or camp.d some of them will just say it. they'll say, i just don't think a woman should be governor i don't think a black woman should be governor. i don't think that they were meant to be. i have had that conversation. but then you also get this other conversation from somebody who is like, oh i don't know what it is about. it's just something and they won't just come out and say what the issue is. so i think part of this is on the candidates to address our issues. and stacey abrams has a piece of her platform that specifically speak to issues that black and care. about and roland mentioned some of. then we can but economics, economic stability, is entrepreneurs. we care about police violence. so, she has that in her agenda but part of this isn't, we have to be honest, isn't going to be about her and her efforts and her policies to address these issues. there's a conversation that we have got to have. terrence named, it that march. and it doesn't have to be a huge margin and. but that margins

brian kemp and stacey abrams. him. >> stacey, we're big fans. could we talk to you real quick? >> reporter: here in georgia, the future of abortion rights has become central to democratic nominee for governor stacey abrams' strategy to win in november. >> how much of an emphasis do you plan to put on abortion rights in the closing weeks of your campaign? >> it's going to be front and center. women deserve full ban. >> in 2019, georgia's incumbent club lieutenant governor, brian kemp, signed a bill into law that bans most abortions. when early cardiac activity is detected. usually, at around six weeks of pregnancy. the law was blocked until roe was overturned. emphasizing abortion rights as proved to be successful, for democratic house candidates, and republican leading alaska. and new york districts signaling the issue has likely energize democratic voters in the wake of the supreme court's decision. >> i definitely think this is something that people should be data -- showed 57% of likely voters say it is very im

. >> ainsley: stacey abrams this video was being passed around on twitter.y actually sent it to me and said it was unbelievable that stacey abrams was up on a stage with other people as she was talking about abortion rights. talking about the heart beat law which bans most abortions by six weeks. she was taking aim at that saying that fetal heart beats are manufactured sounds and you don't hear a heart beat in week six. listen to what she said. >> there is no such thing as a heart beat at six weeks. it is a manufactured sound designed to convince people that have a right to take control of a woman's body. >> brian: so gynecologists all around the world are manufacturing heart beats as if this is a hollywood movie in order to make men seem valuable when it comes to abortion decisions. can you imagine a stupider statement? >> steve: brian, planned parenthood, america's largest abortion provider has now changed the language on their website. now, they say. >> brian: to match it. to not embarrass. >> steve: absolutely. now they say there is no heart beat between

democratic candidates like the senator and stacey abrams are notably campaigning in rural republicaning to get all of these votes. they have candidates like mandela barnes in wisconsin, and stacey abrams, and raphael warnock and georgia are going to need obama level numbers with black voters to win. i'm interested to see what you are seeing on the ground and if stacey abrams and raphael warnock are making headway. >> simone it can send -- to say that battleground states can turn on the margins. that is so true in a state like georgia, that is not only a battleground closely divided, but so demographically and geographically diverse. that means there's so many different leaders for the candidates to pull on, and one of those is the democrats in the rural area. i know the mayor mentioned in atlanta, and fulton county. over former president trump, but the reality is that it took votes from everywhere in georgia. if you look at abrams battle [inaudible] four years ago when it was an open seat, she did everything she wanted to do in my child lancer. the last compared to democrats in previ

a new video shared by the rnc shows that stacey abrams is speaking to an audience at atlanta, georgia, this week, making this wild claim about ultrasound machines. she is not a doctor. let's watch. no, no, no, we do not have it. what she says is you cannot hear fetal heartbeat at six weeks. and went to doctors, we will say, it is, between, five to seven weeks is when that happens. she is not a doctor. and to go further, she says that it was a made up situation that it could happen on an ultrasound at six weeks, made up by men. so she is blaming you, will c cain. >> i'm smiling because i knew you were going with this i seen the clip and i've seen the very words and to be clear i am going to ask blaine what she had to say. but why don't we just characterize it first. this is qanon plus level of conspiracy >> harris: wow. >> will: she says that ultrasound machines were a conspiracy made up of five men to control women's bodies, that ultrasound machines, that he can hear a fetal heartbeat at six weeks are simply a conspiracy. she said that it is not true, you cannot hear a heartbeat and t

she's a democratic nominee for governor in georgia, stacey abrams.have you tonight. >> thank you. thank you for having me. >> certainly. let's talk about georgia. a report found the state was the fifth worst for untested or contaminated water. and just last year, there were 941 epa violations by georgia water systems. that's up from 652 the year before, with 93 health-based violations. with the plan to make sure that no city or town in georgia becomes another jackson or flint. >> first and foremost, we have to realize that we are one georgia and that there should not be a discrepancy based on racial inequity or economic capacity. the provision of law, the provision of clean water is a fundamental obligation of the state. and as deputy city attorney for the city of atlanta i worked with the mayor of atlanta to ensure we were able to deliver clean water. across the state local governments are precluded from taking the actions they need because they are not getting the support they deserve from the state of georgia. i would take the revenue generate bid

dan: shocking speaking of abortion the left suddenly all biology expert this from stacey abrams governore a listen. >> it is a manufactured sound designed to convince people that right to take control of a woman's body. >> as i saw on social media this week i was today years old when i learned that babies don't have hearts apparently and fetal heart beat is some conspiracy to overthrow women rights or something like that. kind of weird. >> mother and manufactured likes among providers i'm seven months pregnant heard at first appointment. wasn't manufactured but what is so interesting all of these respected scientific institutions by the left, u.k. national health service, the journal of medicine, march of dimes all of them say heart beat at six weeks and now left and plan parenthood saying fauci isn't the god of science but stacey. >> they're doing it they're really doing it now claim babies don't have hearts at six weeks. the fact check -- and the and toddler boy may be a boy. >> science out the window. kayleigh mcenany thanks for your time. dan: i have a special segment i was proud to

if he really cared about democracy, how come he doesn't criticize stacey abrams for refusing to recognizet brian kemp legitimately beat her in 2018. why doesn't he criticize his own press secretary who said that election was stolen. why didn't he criticize hillary clinton and jimmy carter who called donald trump an illegitimate president. both sides engage in this rhetoric but when one side democracy is in danger, than you know the only thing they are saying is if you don't support my party, that's democracy being in danger. it's nonsense. our democracy is thriving and it will thrive even warmer joe biden leaves office. >> raymond: when he said if you don't vote for me, you ain't black. he's basically saying if you don't vote for me, you're not american. mercedes, last word. >> i've got to tell you, i think we are running into a situation where it's only creating more enthusiasm for republicans. they have had it. they don't want to hear it anymore from joe biden so if there's one good thing that's come out of this is the fact that we are going to have a red wave come november because repu

you have twitter slapping fact-check confirmation from nbc onto stacey abrams statement. to a hospital room and we have heard the expression from the nurse saying would you like to hear your fetuses cardiac event? this is not something anyone's ever heard and it's because we all know this is a baby and this is a heartbeat. but the left has to deny that and where further than the policies. >> laura: they are so radical it becomes a caricature of itself among mollie. i want to switch gears because over at cnn today, jake tapper spoke to french president and listen to the disdain that they both have for one particular growing political movement. >> this trend of nationalism, populism, racism that we are seeing all over the world gaining power. how worried are you about this? >> we have a big crisis of democracy. open societies, operative democracies put pressure on people. it could destabilize them. >> laura: destabilize. mollie, democracies working just fine. he thinks there's a crisis because the elites are losing. notice how he conflates racism and populism, tapper too in

stacey abrams thinks about this. obviously, aoc's immediate content factory.for the most part, there is still a reticence to embrace progressive media. if the leadership does not -- >> how do you think we are doing on the abortion message? there are a lot of people that i am around who feels like the parties are bold enough, they are laying low when they should be fighting back and people should be more aggressive. this is a time to seize it and not delete dally. there are the people who say that we can only do so much. obviously, aoc believes otherwise. what do you think? >> i will always have this sympathy for people who work in the white house and have very limited tools to solve the problems of people care about. i fully recognize that the president does not have many things they can do. there is no pen that is going to undo what was done and protecting millions of people that he just lost. i do think what aoc twitters threat on this really resonated. a lot of people in my life were interested in politics but don't work in it, what she did was say, to reco

for stacey abrams strategy to win in november.o you plan on putting on abortion rights in the closing weeks of your campaign? >> it's going to be front and center in the conversation. women deserve full citizenship in the united states and certainly in the state of georgia and they're being denied that. >> reporter: in 2019 brian kemp signed a bill into law that bans most abortions. when early cardiac activity is detected, usually at around 6 weeks of pregnancy. the law was blocked until roe was overturned. emphasizing abortion rights has proved to be successful recently for democratic house candidates in republican leechk alaska. in a battleground new york district signaling the issue has likely energized democratic voters in the wake of the supreme court's decision. >> i definitely think this is something people should consider while voting. >> i think it could be the difference in our state. >> a recent quinnipiac poll showed 57% of likely voters saying it's very important a candidate shares their views on abortion. within that

given that, how did raphael warnock and stacey abrams play that?d say all night long that herschel walker is nuts. but inflation falls on the incumbent. >> right, and i do think that they are at a minimum able to talk about things that certainly senator warnock can talk about things that democrats have done in washington, that he has done in washington, that he has brought to georgia as a result of being in the senate and can make an affirmative case as to why he should, he should be returned to the senate. there is a new poll out that has, if i'm remembering right, senator warnock now slightly above herschel walker and the latest poll. but as that poll, that poll number that you show there, with inflation being the number one concern, of 41% of people polled, a sort of the warning shot to georgia democrats, but also to democrats writ large that as much as there is this energy and passion behind the issue of abortion, and you know, republicans not being of the help themselves by continue to put the issue out there for people to continue to be passi

talked about two of the best-known nonincumbent gubernatorial candidates, atul o'rourke in texas, staceyey are trailing their republican competitors ever so slightly. >> that is right. for asell known and well loved among democrats as stacey abrams is in georgia, they are kind of polarizing figures. georgia to some degree, they are still kind of center-right states. as much as the candidates fire of democrats, they fire up democratic opponents. polling has indicated steady, solid lea for camp in georgia, and greg abbott in texas. we talk about those races, even though gg abbott has had questions and problems in recent nths. he still looks like he is decently positioned this year. >> c geoff: what makes governors races different? kyle: there's a little more room to maneuver, if you are from a minority party in the state, to make some hay you maybe could make in a house or senate race. we have some outliers in the governorship. democrats have kentucky in louisiana, kansas we mentioned. we have republican governors in maryland, massachusetts, very blue states otherwise. you could sometimes
