one of her top surrogates, terry mcauliffe said she would ultimately, he believes, would support it if elected. that's created a firestorm. the campaign pushing back against that saying that is absolutely not the case. that is the backdrop in which senator tim kaine will take the stage tonight. he's going to be introducing himself to a lot of american voters for the very first time. you can expect him to tout what he will argue are his progressive credentials. that's been a big topic of discussion. some progressives feel he is not left-leaning enough. you will hear him talk about his long service, not only as senator, but former governor of virginia. he also has foreign policy experience. of course, he'll talk about his agenda if he and secretary clinton were to be elected. so a lot on the table. this is a big, big moment for tim kaine. a lot of americans not familiar with him, not familiar with his work. his speech tonight will be a critical introduction, jose. >> kristen welker, thank you very much. we saw tim kaine wrapping up his quick visit to the arena before his speech today. th

. >> before i let you go, a little bit of anxiety over tpp and terry mcauliffe, governor of virginia, was out there saying, oh, she's going to renegotiate it. the clinton campaign saying no renegotiating, it's over. is tpp dead? would you say it is dead in the u.s. senate? >> yeah, i think it is. i think it is right now. >> no matter what happens to the election? >> i think no matter what happens in the election. i mean, i don't, you know -- there are certain provisions in it that are troubling. >> do you think it's salvageable? >> these are huge issues and no, i don't. but i don't want to predict what's going to happen. >> all right. senator al franken, got a lot in there. comedy, russia, tpp, trade just a small five minutes. thanks for your time, good to see you. >> you bet. >> things are underway here at the wells fargo center. we'll have much more right after this this break. stay tuned. you both have a perfect driving record. perfect. no tickets, no accidents... that is until one of you clips a food truck ruining your perfect record. yeah. now you would think your insurance compa

>> next newsmakers with virginia governor terry mcauliffe on the presidential campaign. then we will show you some of the speeches from the republican national convention including texas senator ted cruz, indiana governor mike pence, and presidential candidate donald trump. virginia governor terry mcauliffe is our guest this week on newsmakers, a longtime confidant of the clintons and former rnc chairman. he is also now chairman of the national governors association. gabe of politico post.ne of the washington the remarks on transpacific partnership. were they reported correctly in the press? was was asked on the floor there any way there would be an agreement that hillary could support and if she got everything she wanted could she support it. obviously she doesn't support pp today. there's probably nothing that can be done that would earn her support. she's against it today. the question was if she got everything she wanted changed but it's a moot point. i have also talked to senator kaine and he does not support it either. governor, if i could ask you a follow-up. a lo

know this for fact, there is nobody including her own husband, closer to hillary clinton than terry mcauliffe, okay? go ahead.

hillary clinton, is she winking and nodding -- >> no, let me be completely clear about this -- >> terry mcauliffe is wrong? >> completely wrong. and while the clintons have a long relationship with the mcauliffe and he's a tremendous governor, he does not know what he's talking about on this particular issue. his personal position is in favor of tpp. rerespect his position. he does not speak for secretary clinton, and she is against tpp now, she's against tpp after the election. we have a huge lengthy agenda when it comes to creating jobs in this country and it includes rebuilding our infrastructure, increasing the minimum wage, more profit sharing for workers, you know what's not on that agenda, passing this tpp or renegotiating to get a different version. and in the recent conversations between secretary clinton and senator kaine, senator kaine also agreed with secretary clinton's position that this deal does not meet her tests. she is opposed to it now, she would be opposed to it in a lame duck or if she's president after january. >> she wasn't always opposed to it, she was in favor of it give

joining me now on the phone is the governor of virginia, terry mcauliffe. governor, your reaction to the man who once held your office and your current home state senator, tim kaine, being chosen. >> chris, i've got to tell you, we are so fired up here in virginia. tim is a great pick. he embodies the values. he has been a moral progressive his whole life. you look at his whole history. he was a great mayor here, great lieutenant governor, great governor and he's been a great united states senator and he'll fight for folks. that's what this man has done his whole life. it is really a great pick for hillary. he can reach out to so many different communities. he's got 100% rating, as you know, from planned parenthood. he has been a huge supporter of lgbt rights. he has been a great partner in washington for me as governor to work to try to get the dangerous guns out of the hands of individuals. so i couldn't be more excited here in virginia. it also helps us make sure that virginia, which is probably one of the top three swing states is going to be a blue sta

especially because terry mcauliffe is so close to the clintons. that is why the smackdown from jake sullivan, brian fallon, john podesta, they are saying the governor of virginia is flat wrong and also puts more pressure on tim kaine because clinton in her conversations with tim kaine before choosing him as the nominee had to get him to back down from his previously held position in support of the trade deal. which he had always endorsed. so you've got a little awkwardness there just as tim kaine is going to be taking the stage here tonight on behalf of the ticket. >> andrea mitchell, thank you so much, that was a terrific interview with terry mcauliffe, he will be tom robert's guest next half hour. be sure to stay tuned for that. >>> meanwhile jackie spear, a democrat from california sits on the house armed services committee and is out here with me now. thanks so much. >> my pleasure. >> i want to play more of what we just heard from donald trump about russia's role in finding those messing clinton e-mails. let's take a listen. >> mook, i saw hi

mark: terry mcauliffe says he didn't mean it. the campaign says he is wrong.this a problem for her? john: it just reinforces the sense of the big grand narrative. her husband and she have been for free trade deals. , all freeow in doubt trade deals. thatinforces that sense even if she does not sign tpp that something like tpp will be on the table and 27 and she will be for that. i believe that is true. complete unforced error. the reality is a lot of democratic politicians believe in free trade. john: as do a lot of republicans. is the worst possible thing, probably not a long-term problem, but does allow donald trump on opening on an area where he is going to have to have an upper hand. she has moved left on trade. he needs an upper hand on trade to win a state like this. john: this is a classic case where right and left don't matter anymore, insider or outsider. in terms of the politics this year, she is on the insider of establishment side. over the past couple of days, democrats, including bernie sanders, have been hitting donald trump pretty, pretty hard

virginia's supreme court heard arguments about a challenge to governor terry mcauliffe's plan to retore felons' voting rights. we will have much more on that coming up shortly at 4:30. jonathan: thanks. your voice, your future takes a closer look at the second day of the r.n.c. you can watch it at 7:00 on our sister station on newschannel8. we will be streaming it live at wjla.com so you won't miss a thing. that is coming up this evening at 7:00. michelle: we want to check on the weather. the sticky feeling is starting to let up a bit outside. chief meteorologist doug hill is here with a look at how long the break will last. doug: not very long. we will see a brief dr the humidity levels later tonight and tomorrow. but then the high heat and the humidity return. check this out. for the past few hours the action is south of washington today. this is the sky a couple of hours ago in spotsylvania. 70 degrees there. i was warmer. you will see why it called off. the skies will darken and the heavy storms blast through the area of spotsylvania county. as they move out, we have a clearing sky

. >> yesterday terry mcauliffe who is the clintons' best friend.here he suggested hillary clinton would be in favor of tpp that trade pact in yaeasia, thi was a big concession to the bernie sanders team. >> he's never been for it. >> she sort of helped smooth the way for it as secretary of state. now as a candidate for president, very much opposes it. mcauliffe said it's president president obama focus she'll go along with it if there's tweaks she can agree with. that blew up. the clinton campaign said no. no. john padesta went out saying full stop. she is not for the tpp. >> then terry mcauliffe comes on with thomas roberts and says she is against tpp. steadfast against it. it seemed like a giant walk back. >> a 24 hour walk back. >> should not have suggested she would potentially be for this deal. >> right. the reason why this was surprising to begin with was because of the close friendship between the clintons and terry mcauliffe. one would imagine he does know her thinking on this more than any candidate for her surrogate was. he was the campai

virginia governor terry mcauliffe is praising the funding approved for what he says will be the biggestransportation plan in the history of the commonwealth. >> we are moving forward. we have notified our folks. we are going to start construction next year. this isn't a promise. this is maureen: his announcement this morning at the amtrak vre station in alexandria. it's called the atlantic gateway project and has $4.5 million of federal money with private and state money. the governor says it will improve passenger train service and extend the i-95 express lanes south to fredericksburg. north of 395 to the 14th street bridge. speaking of numbers, the mega millions jackpot now climbed to $500 million for tonight's drawing. tickets are selling at twice the rate of a week ago. i wonder why. if you win and you want the lump sum you can take home $380 million. the drawing is tonight at 11:00. we will have the winning numbers on abc7 news at 11:00. good luck. arlington county has been recognized as one of the best communities in the country for walking. two walking published a book called ame

. >>> strong reaction from virginia governor terry mcauliffe tonight after the state's highest courttruck down an executive order that restored voting rights to felons. the governor called it a disgrace and said he would work to restore rights for nearly 13,000 individuals who have already registered to vote. news 4's dorothy spencer reports from fairfax county tonight. >> reporter: sheila has worked to help convicted felons get their voting rights back in virginia. but now a major setback. >> just seems >> the virginia supreme court ruled that terry mcauliffe went too far when he enabled more than 200,000 felons who served their time to register to vote. >> absolutely devastated. >> the court ruled the order unconstitutional. the governor has said the civil war era provision was meant to block african-americans from voting. he said in a statement he would sign nearly 13,000 individual orders for citizens who have already had their rights restored and registered to vote. >> they need a second chance and the opportunity to be what they deserve to be as far as a voter in the state of v

. >> terry mcauliffe. who would have ever seen terry mcauliffe causing problems for the clintons?> couldn't help himself talking about tpp last night. >> roger clinton was not available, nor was billy carter, so terry mcauliffe thoroughly being investigated is the guy. is he still under investigation by the feds? >> 28 minutes after the hour. now stop. controversy began brewing at the convention shortly after members nominated hillary clinton. why did i -- when long-time ally and virginia governor terry mcauliffe suggested to politico that hillary clinton will change her positions on the trancepacific partnership. quote, i worry that if we don't do tpp, at some point china's going to break the rules, but hillary understands this. once the election's over, and we sit down on a trade, people understand a couple things we want to fix on it but going forward we got to build a global economy. asked if clinton would turn around and support the trade deal she came out against in the primary fight against bernie sanders, mcauliffe said, yes, listen, she was supportive but there are certai

terry mcauliffe has walked that statement back completely. campaign continues to insist she opposes the tpp now. she will oppose it after the election. this is a major issue of concern for many bernie sanders' supporters, the tpp is an issue that senator tim kaine has previously been in favor of the tpp. we're looking to see what the response will be from some of these bernie sanders' delegates when the name of tim kaine is placed before them. especially in the wake of all of what we've had in the last 12 hours. that's going to be happening a few hours from now. we'll set the stage here in the next few minutes, jacob soberaff is in the sea of delegates. >> energy is good in here. everybody seems excited about tonight. and frankly, people are talking less about tim kaine coming up on the stage and more about what we heard from donald trump today. i've been talking to a lot of delegates about donald trump's remarks that he wants russia to find hillary clinton's e-mails. they think it's an outrageous statement. we've heard less about the remarks

you have terry mcauliffe, , the governor of virginia, who says she is close -- for it. you know that he does not know? mr. stiglitz: part of this is that the democratic platform, which is the commitment of the democratic party, came out with a set of principles that any trade agreement, current or past , has to satisfy it. if you look at those principles come of the tpp in its current form does not satisfy it. nafta does not satisfy it. the need, although they did not make it explicit -- amy: the burning delegates on the platform committee pushed and the clinton campaign pushed hard back and she won. mr. stiglitz: to me, my understanding of that is that they did not want to embarrass president obama. , whatad those principles a trade agreement has to satisfy , it is pretty obvious that tpp does not satisfy it, nafta does not satisfy it. interpretation of the next democratic administration is that they will renegotiate nafta and renegotiate tpp. i talked to some of our tradade partners in nafta, in tpp, and they would welcome that. amy: what does hillary clinton say priv

hearing was held yesterday after republicans challenged governor terry mcauliffe's order to restore the voting rights for 206-thousand felons. they argue the state constitution requires governors to consider each felon case individually and not as a group. mcauliffe says the move is the right thing to do and disputes claim's that he signed the order to add democratic voters to help hillary clinton win virginia in november. since the governor issued the order in april, nearly 12-thousand felons have registered to vote in the upcoming election. a decision on the case is expected next month. 7 on your side getting results- for hundreds of students left in limbo because of missing test results. ap tests can determine much of a student's future- especially when it comes to setting up college courses. students at one high school in prince william county thought they'd know their scores july 7-th. days- their results were delayed. they called 7 on your side-- and richard reeve has good news for them. source tu 11p n lklv missing tests -- need am grx + gmw tag tusite1feed9pm tc 22:10:40 at xx t
