susan: explain margin of error. elliott: a statistical term for how wrong an estimate in a pole can be. 95% of the time. it goes back to sampling. if you pick up 1000 americans out of a bag of millions, you will get weird americans experts on the time in the margin of error will tell you there is a 5% chance that a candidate will win if they have a 53% support in the polls, a 3% margin of error. they base it off of sampling error. assembling out of the back of americans. but other things can go wrong. there is waiting adjustments, figuring out if they have the right share of democrats and republicans, if they're using recent estimates from the census for white and black americans, the tendency of some groups not to respond, and measurement error in the polls, whether they are asking the questions. so one thing to note is it does not cover 100% of the probability. susan: when people report on polls, you scroll to the bottom and there is always small print, the margin of error. what is an acceptable margin of error? e

susan: did you follow-up? because in fact there were cases on board the ship and i believe crewmembers -- 1000 passengers disembarked. did it cause an outbreak in the city? michael: i was not able to get documented proof but the mayor is convinced that after that ship came through, there were people who got covid that spread in his town because cases started going up after the ship left but there is no proof that is the case. because other ships were coming through and there are other factors. but the mayor and others in the town were concerned. susan: jonathan, you tell the story of a couple on board who visited a friend who ran a shop in duty-free. what is the warning they got from that proprietor? jonathan: the proprietor is like i might get back on the ship and find a safe haven. it was remarkable that the people on land in the previous stop and this stop had a higher sense of alarm than the ship. the ship was seen as this floating bubble. in both places, locals warned people who came off the ship, find a

susan: what direction has virginia gone in? ms. thompson: virginia had a long-standing law protecting monuments from removal not just by individual actors but by local authorities. they were not allowed to modify or remove established monuments. this seems like a neutral law but these laws in southern states were enacted around the time when confederate monuments were starting to be questioned and in most communities, confederate monument was the monument in the community. so these are very targeted. in 2017 in charlottesville, virginia began to question if the confederate monuments were appropriate for the community. there was a lawsuit to keep them in place. the unite the right rally was in support of keeping monuments there. so the law was debated about whether it was appropriate to basically nail the monuments in place despite the wishes of the community. now in virginia local community officials can decide about monuments. not to say they can do whatever they want without consultation. there is a process and there has to be de

last question for both of you, susan first.n highland park was such a frequent presence that as soon as the police apprehended him, a lot of people recognized his face. how come the tech giants and law enforcement folks can't step up their efforts? >> well, there's been a reluctance for any collaboration with tech and law enforcement. that's been going on forever, you know? they don't want to unlock pass codes for the fbi when they're trying to find out information on someone's iphone. there's always been a real reluctance or resistance to work with law enforcement for social media. i think that the string of incidents we've seen now is going to further raise questions about whether there should be collaboration, and i also think the police are overwhelmed. i really do. i think they're overwhelm whenned right now, and that's part of it. howard: harold. >> i agree with. i know you're out of time. i agree with susan, we need to do these hinges and do them as quickly as possible. howard: well, maybe there's a consensus forming on

susan, this is incredibly shocking to hear.more and more details, and it's likely to have a huge impact on japanese society overall. i mean we're very close to an election coming up this sunday. in fact, he was giving a speech at the time, we're understanding, this happened. tell me about the significance of these upcoming elections and the ramifications in society in japan. >> well, laura, i think this is an important and excellent point to make really. you know, you can't overstate how rare this kind of gun violence and political violence is in japan. you know, foreign correspondents i know who have worked in japan say they can recall never, never having covered a shooting, never mind the, you know, weekly drum beat of mass shootings we have here in the united states. there has been a history of political violence in japan as in many other societies, but very, very rare. you have to go back to 1932 to when a prime minister was assassinated. i believe a party leader was assassinated in 1960. but, you know, this is almost a cat

so, it was hard on susan. that was the thing that was so difficult because all her friends kind of immediately took it up and, you know, it made fun of it. to this day, she still resents it. but, you know, life doesn't always have a bed of roses. >> another question. mrs. ford, i have a question. i am a judge from lawrence county superior court. i started that record with another judge, judge lately. i would like to ask you a question about drug court. drug court treats nonviolent drug addicts who have an addiction, who instead of being incarcerated are given an opportunity to complete a program. what are your thoughts on something like that for the public? >> well, my feeling is, that unless we have education and treatment for people, the drug problem is it going to go on and on. i certainly believe that treatment is much better than incarceration when it is appropriate. there are times where repeated offenses, that are causing very damaging accidents, and endangering peoples lives is not -- it's probably not

and susan covered 19 hasn't gone away. we all wish it hard, but it's still looking now what, when you're traveling internationally, what do you still finding? you have to do to make sure you've got everything you need before you can. you're allowed on the plane because many countries still have restrictions. i always try to stay as safe as possible. my goal is to not get sick. and right now i know more people who have gone ill with coven, then at any other point during this entire pandemic. i think that the result of a combination of the relaxed masking rules the, the route i was entranced, the day that the united states dropped the requirement for a 24 hour negative test. prior to flying back to the states from, you know, international locations and, and so there's a direct correlation between dropping the masked mandates and the testing requirements. and the, jumped up in the number of covered cases, but also the fact that it is mutating so quickly. i mean it's, it's, it's being allowed to, to kind of go unchecked and we

susan, welcome from your home in texas.covered susan as a reporter since she was 16 years old. susan, those times when you moved into the white house, flowers were everywhere. >> my mother, you know, loved flowers, and so she was happy to have fresh flowers in her house. and i like to have fresh flowers in my house here. >> absolutely. at the white house, there is an elaborate hierarchy. there is a full-time florist on the staff, and i have seen the cart going around in the white house putting fresh flowers on almost every table on a daily basis. did your mom get involved with that? was there a greenhouse on the property where she could come in and choose things? >> no, there wasn't a greenhouse on the property, and if there is a greenhouse someplace else, i never got to see it. but she loved the fresh flowers and, yes, the white house did beautiful fresh flowers. you've got to remember, anne, when we moved in, it was a pretty tumultuous time, so i don't think mother got involved in the flowers as quickly as she would -- th

on betty my jack's team susan and gail. to come down with me and to listen while betty wrote read a statement that i have sent to. governor carter i may call on the real spokesman for the family betty the president asked me to tell you. that he telephone president like carter a short time ago and congratulated on his victory. the president also wants to thank all those thousands. of people who work so hard on his behalf. and the millions who supported him with their votes. it's been the greatest honor. of my husband's life to have served his fellow americans during two of most difficult years in our history. and to join him and giving your united support to press and elect carter as he prepares to assume his new responsibilities. that was betty ford speaking of the straightforward manner to which americans became accustomed in the nearly two and a half years. she lived in the white house. the concession statement she delivered on behalf of a horse president gerald ford ending. the 1976 campaign was not the end of her own po

susan: absolutely. safety features like blind spot finders, and driver assist. luxury add-ons are being nixed. no more heated seats in car models. five savings shutdowns, touch-screen displays. mary barra, said they have 5,000 cars that were made without the right parts in the first quarter of this year, second quarter of this year, in springtime. other carmakers like volkswagen, cadillac, other brands, they had to get rid of some of those extra, some extra safety features because they couldn't get access to the right chips and right parts. ashley: all about the chips in cars these days. susan, thank you very much. >>> gas prices have come down a little but the national average for a gallon of regular, still more than $4.50. 4.52. karen kerrigan is president of the small business, entrepreneurship coins skill. she says there are five things the president could do right now to bring down prices. she is her too tell us next. cities were once a beacon for office real estate. now they're struggling to get w

ashley: when he comes to elon musk, anything is possible going to move on susan, it is not it is truer you, we know americans are facing inflation while at a 40 year hi, but when you look across the pond of the uk, not doing so great either. >> going to see in her be happier side of the sources said because we saw the inflation and june was 9.4 percent of those higher than expected that's even higher than u.s. senate 9.1 percent and 40 years height already in the bank of england, the doing of the world is course kill inflation and i guess the markets are expecting the boe height interest 50 basis points the largest 30 years after five in the 25 aces point hikes in route saving here, going to hear from powell j powell, they're going to 75 again,. ashley: all right susan and thank you very much we find this story, the questioning of the white house, what president biden has been doing after returning from his trip from the middle east, watch this. >> i notice on the schedule last few days, no public events and easy resting after this international jet. >> he's been busy, he's been quite

susan: yes. i don't think anybody gets up in the morning and says i want to say something that is offensive or i want to be ableist in my thinking, just like the other isms. a lot of it has to do with lack of exposure and understanding. but the issue around disability and the issue around chronic illness is often that it's not the tactical things you are dealing with, it's not not being able to see or those types of things that are creating a real challenge. it is really the attitudes people bring in that of limiting for you. one form of ableism is low expectations. if you don't demand the same performance for the same grades, you are setting them up for failure. if you are a boss who really wants to do the right thing and wants to protect someone with a disability from failure, you are actually limiting their opportunities for promotion because they are not getting the experience they need to grow within their jobs. the intentions can be good but anytime you are not showing respect, anytime you

congressional correspondent ryan nobles, and karen cordero, and cnn global affairs global analysis susan glasser. good evening one and all, first, rhino both. cnn reported earlier today that marc short, greg jacobs testimony shows how the investigation inside the trump white house. but the post tonight going even further with that, ryan, give me some details on conversations with trump. how does this all fit together, sir? >> well, you know, don, for a long time there has been at least some criticism of merrick garland and the attorney generals office that they have not done enough to specifically linked the events of january six to donald trump. but their actions over the past two weeks or so show that garland's investigation is getting increasingly closer to trump itself. and the post reporting tonight, coupled with what we have reported about the grand jury testimony and the different people who have come before and answered questions about this investigation showed that garland and his team are not just satisfied with this band of advisers around trump, who were influencing him and b

susan, i'm gonna take this first question to you.ary is coming up in just a couple days. do you think this is actually a sound strategy? >> i think it is a very dangerous strategy, because there's using broad strokes. if you want to get involved with somebody else's primaries, which is a very tricky thing to do, you had better do it surgically. and you tend to do it by going after the other candidate in such a way that it really hits home into the district. not just in this maga way. i have been a lot longer running the saying that the best chances the democrats have of keeping the house in the senate is for a republicans to win primaries. but i'm not sure that democrats providing lynn is the way to go. and let me just throw this other thing out here. it is a very dangerous strategy, pushing putting up extreme candidates like this. because we do not know with the economy is going to look like in november. we see things turning for the democrats favor. which i hope the democrats to keep the house in the senate. because i believe in go

susan: yeah. stuart: what are they doing? i'm. hourly workers. and this is really a new move by the new ceo, barry mccarthy, to try to boost morale. but you don't fire 2800 staff and tell people we're going to cut $8 million in annual costs. now, job cuts are happening because i look at the challenger gray number this morning, that's a recruitment firm. job cuts went up 57% in may from a year ago, and that is the highest quarterly old in almost 18 -- total in almost 18 months. the jobless claims going up as well, i think it's the fourth week in a row. stuart: do you remember in order ific track, i used to go to garage sales, there'd always be a nordic track in the driveway. i wonder if peloton -- susan: you're saying it's an expensive clothes hanger, meaning there isn't that much value in actual fitness providers? stuart: yes. susan: possibly. the market's agreeing with you. a third of its ipo price. stuart: if i were to go to a garage sale and there was a peloton in the driveway and i bought that peloton and somebody else had own

i want to play more, susan. this is what we heard from president biden slamming trump today for failing to respond to the january 6 plot. >> for 3 hours the defeated former president of the united states watched it'll happen. as he sat in the comfort of the private dining room next to the oval office. while he was doing that, braelon forsman officers subject to the medieval for 3 hours. face to face with creased mom, the police, lies, the police were heroes that day. donald trump lack the courage to act. >> you could hear the scratchy voice. he's recovering from covid. that's the first thing i noticed. what do you think about biden laying into trump like that and showing the contrast between law enforcement and the former president? >> it is interesting. it's probably a sign of the effectiveness of the january 6 committee in putting these facts, which was already known back in front of the public in a powerful way. in fact, president biden has generally been reluctant to take a punch at donald trump and to bring

oh you all know who susan b anthony was right the great suffragist. well, it would have been oh there she is in the in the fall of of 72 so women's groups came and said we would like to give a bust of susan b anthony to the white house. so we think it would be appropriate thing. i thought that was a great idea since i said fine and what they did was to have her made. she's a copy of the marble one in the capital. she is in bronze. she was made in upstate, new york. excuse me. and then they had her delivered to my office. and we had to get a date to present to the white house. it would be to mrs. nixon, which also tells you something about the times not to the president but to mrs. nixon, that's fine. we're going to find a date between the time she was delivered and when we could get the date she lived in the closet in my office. third floor of the eisenhower office building and in the dead of night, sometimes she would steal out of that office. out of that closet and go and land in the office of someone in the white house who had set or done something

susan first your take. go to you juanita. >> what [inaudible] president biden will veto that. so that won't be the biggest challenge. if i was a democrat right now, and i was trying to make abortion rights an issue, i would go into the red states and go after the register legislatures on rape, incest, and the life of the mother. try to get a win. similar to the way we got a win on gun safety. you have to start cracking it open a little bit, so you can continue to move forward. if you show that there is an opening, there is more hope and i think that will rally people together and bring a message that this is such extremism that when needed was talking about, that not even in rape, incest, or life of the mother, can these people see fit to let her woman controller body. >> juanita? >> look rev., i agree with you susan as far as the strong small winds, but i think that democrats need to fight and go down swimming swinging if that's how it's gonna pan out. i hear democrats talking about -- but there still acti
