conversation with republican congress 0 man will hurd and conversation with south carolina senator tim scott. >>

. >> garrett: we will hear from south carolina republican tim scott about what can be done to help these communities. to as always, we will bring you analysis on all of the news of the week coming up on "face the nation". >> garrett: welcome to "face the nation". margaret is off today. it is a grim sunday morning as we woke up to the news of yet another mass shooting in this country. this one in dayton, ohio. dean reynoldss will join us in a moment for more on that but begin in el paso, cbs news correspondent janet shamlian. >> good morning, major it is an active 0 crime scene at this wal-mart today which has become the deadliest mass shooting in america since massacre at texas church in 2017. investigators are now looking at motive and whether this was a hate crime. a chilling image that police say is the gunman on surveillance camera walking into a wal-mart carrying an ak-47 style assault rifle and wearing noise muffling headphones. and then this. >> cellphone video captures the rapid fire shots as a man hides under a table. others record the heart stopping chaos. >> ak. >> police say

after the 2020 election, senator tim scott, republican of north carolina, will be the only black republican incumbent in congress. again, that would be both houses of congress, all 535 members of congress. still with us tonight, our friends susan page, and john meachum. susan, explain to our viewers why, here is a guy, will hurd, one of 535, we last saw him during the mueller hearing, the news kind of went by everybody else. why was this seismic where you live and work in the washington area? >> well, for one thing, there is the fact that it reduces the limited diversity of the republican caucus, in more than one way. in race, but also in a willingness to stand up to president trump, because there are only a handful of house republicans who have been willing to do that, and will hurd has been one of them. the other reason, they have been highly respected, he is a serious legislator, respected on both sides of the aisle. the fact that he is stepping in, he is like 41 years old, it is

[applause] now, fortunately, senator tim scott was unable to be with us this evening. but he did send a long a special message for us. so if we could roll the tape. sen. tim scott: hey, y'all, sorry i couldn't be there tonight because there's no place finer than to be in the carolinas. i want to thank every single person in the room for their hard work, dedication and the belief in the conservative cause. we knew our policies work. we know they bring opportunity where it hasn't been before, and we know certainly our ideas build a stronger, better nation. in case you hadn't heard, there's a few big elections next year including my good friend lindsey graham and of course, president donald trump. let's make sure we keep things red, ruby red. i hope you have a great night. thank you, again. and god bless. [applause] >> and now, i want to welcome to the stage a man who stood in this spot and has headed up at least nine of these events in the past. i think i could count. we tried to figure it up. -- at least nine of them. a fellow who has been working every day to bring our

now you have one loan black republican, tim scott, south carolina.w do they even begin to attract more people, leah? >> the problem is everything they have to do to attract the minority consistetituencies, everything is completely at odds with donald trump. that's where you see the real tension. that's where you see the real problem. so a figure like tim scott is really going to be under the spotlight. people are going to be looking at his words, they're going to look at his policies and his vote in congress. they are either going to be looking at him to to push back at trump or to rationalize what trump does. so do you explain your continued support of the republican party that has essentially become donald trump's party in 2019? that is a difficult, difficult path and it does not bode well for the 2020 election, either the presidential election but also mid term so state and lowell levelocal levels. there is a real possibility that texas will look politically different in a couple of years. >> this is so figure. >> the autopsy report warned about t

and i think tim scott is speaking to that as well.to anna's point, congress hasn't been able to do anything at all on gun violence or gun related legislation in years. they try to do something sweeping after the shootings at sandy hook in newtown, and what started out as a broad package that would have included potentially an assault weapons ban, limits on high capacity magazines and other policies quickly was reduced to the expanded background check bill and in the end, they couldn't even get that across the finish line. and that was when we had a democratic president in the white house. and so i think the question is going to be, how much has the tragedy that we have been through over and over and over again, how many times have we sat here and remembered victims of yet another mass tragedy at a place where we all expect to be able to go and be safe, whether it's a walmart or, you know, our children going to school. you know, whether that puts enough pressure across the country that comes to bear on these lawmakers to actually make

parties only black senator, tim scott is he following the only black congressman who is republican on his way out the door? breaking news north korea test firing two more missiles. escalating tensions hours after trump said this about kim jong un. >> he really wrote a beautiful three-page -- it was a very positive letter. >> what did he say? >> i'd love to give it to you. i really would. it's tough to quit smoking cold turkey. so chantix can help you quit slow turkey. along with support, chantix is proven to help you quit. with chantix you can keep smoking at first and ease into quitting. chantix reduces the urge so when the day arrives, you'll be more ready to kiss cigarettes goodbye. when you try to quit smoking, with or without chantix, you may have nicotine withdrawal symptoms. stop chantix and get help right away if you have changes in behavior or thinking, aggression, hostility, depressed mood, suicidal thoughts or actions, seizures, new or worse heart or blood vessel problems, sleepwalking, or life-threatening allergic and skin reactions. decrease alcohol use. use caution drivi

inner it's turned out to be tim scott. worked very hard on it. and any other people did it's become a great success. beneficiary, for the african-american population. what happened. between that reform and then of course, the biggest thing is the lowest unemployment rate in the country for is african-american african-americans. you see those things, , if the news, the lame stream or mainstream or whatever you want to call it, media or fake news if it would covered. people would feel different, but they don't talk about opportunities. don't think i've seen anything about opportunities. it was bipartisan. they don't talk about it anymore. obama did it ch. so, important. letting alice out and 2 years to serve. jack johnson was, so unjustly convicted. heavy weight champion from the early 1900's. things we've done. when, if president obama did great.t would have been when i do it steve, people don't want to talk about it. 80% ere's a pole that said of african-americans believe your rhetoric is racist. message not getting out? >> because the press does

tim scott of south carolina worked so hard on it, so many other people did and it has become a real success. the biggest beneficiary are african-americans. the african-american population. it is incredible what has happened. between that, criminal justice reform, and the biggest thing is the lowest unemployment rate in the history of this country for african-americans. by far. when you see those things and when people -- if the news, the lame-stream, mainstream media, whatever you want to call it, fake news, if it were covered, people would feel differently, but they don't talk about that. people don't talk about opportunity zones. i don't think i've ever seen a thing about opportunity zones. when i did criminal justice reform, everyone would say oh -- i won't tell you names because i am not looking to build them up, but the biggest names were there on the other side, liberal and conservative sides. it was very bipartisan, but they don't even talk about it anymore. if somebody else did it, if president obama did criminal justice reform, which is so good for the african-americans, so good. s

this south carolina republican, tim scott was an early champion. >> growing up in a single parent householdyou did is work. >> working for free is something that would not have been an option for you. >> senator scott pays his interns but most in congress don't. >> by having a cross-section of america employed here, i serve america better. >> ryan says interning for a senate subcommittee is opening doors he never knew existed. >> i am meeting people. they are like do you want a job. networking is huge. >> you can see how this experience might change the job trajectory. >> marissa reyes is interning for chuck schumer. >> it is funny. everyone is like want to get coffee. you guys really like coffee. >> 87% of college to congress alumni have stayed in public service. >> there is a generation that is hungry to be a part of the difference. they are not desensitized like a lot of other americans are. they really do see an opportunity to fix this. >> what is your ultimate goal? >> i want congress to look like america. i want the american people to be heard. >> the cbs overnight news will be right

bit of political news from south carolina, senator tim scott says he will run for reelection in 2022, but that will be his last political race. he took over when jim demint resigned the position. he was appointed as a member of the house to the senate seat by then-governor nikki haley. he will step down when his term is completed. he is up again in 2022. this is an aerial view of the iowa state fair. coming up from this morning, julian castro, housing secretary in the obama administration, former mayor of san antonio, among the speakers this morning at the "des moines register" political soapbox. [applause] mr. castro: good morning. 'alls great to be with y in des moines at the iowa state fire. thank you for -- iowa state fair. thank you very much, rachel, and all those who helped organize this. i note des moines is proud of the state there and you have reason to be. i'm excited because i'm here with my family. my wife, erika, and our daughter and son. [cheers and applause] mr. castro: this is a real treat for me because i don't often get to travel with my family. i think they are loo

the one joining me to respond is south carolina senator tim scott. i had the pleasure of serving with senator scott in the congress, i appreciate you joining me tonight. when you hear that montage and also see the residence there in baltimore, what runs through your mind? what your perspective? >> senator scott: there is no doubt that president trump is not a racist in the facts are very simple. without any question, if you look at his legacy it will be has accomplishments in office frankly helping in many, many ways. african-americans think about the fact that we've all heard how low the african-american unemployment is, the lowest recorded in the history of the country. but more importantly, a racist would never talk about criminal justice reform and how they disproportionately help african-american men. he would never hear a racist talk about opportunity zones and how they came onboard at full throttle because he wanted to help poor or disadvantaged communities and most of them consistently african-american and, you never hear a racist talk about

republican senator tim scott says he is willing to return immediately. >> to suggest we are not willing to go back and confront this major issue in our nation, i reject that. >> reporter: president trump calling for lawmakers on both sides of the isle to possibly mary background checks and immigration reform in response to this weekend's murders. >> if we are able to pass great legislation after all of these years, we will ensure that those who were attacked will not have died in vain. >> reporter: democratic presidential hopefuls blasting republican leadership in their handling of the issue. >> he continues to try to demonize people seeking asylum and people needing our help. >> reporter: there is no indication the majority leader plans to call anyone back at this point. he is recovering from fracturing his shoulder at home over the weekend. while the president did not do so, at the white house today, he also has the authority to call lawmakers back to washington. that's according to article 2 section 3 of the constitution but it's a move not seen here since the time of harry trumann.

at least one republican, senator tim scott says he is willing to return immediately to talk about gun let those killed in el paso, texas and dayton, ohio, die in vain like those seriously wounded. we cannot forget them and many who came before them. republicans and democrats must come together to get strong background checks, perhaps marrying, this legislation with desperately needed immigration reform. we must have something good, if not great come out of these go tragic events. already senator kirsten gillibrand is blasting that suggestion. >> it is absurd. this is part of the problem. he is linking issue of basic common sense gun reform we should go back in the senate today to vote on with this issue of immigration, because again he continues to try to demonize people seeking asylum, people needing our help. reporter: no indication that mcconnell has any plans to call anyone back at this point. he fractured his shoulder at home over the weekend. he is recovering. but the president who will talk to us very soon does have the authority to call lawmakers back under article 2, section

sometimes he can be racially insensitive as tim scott pointed out.s a person in trouble, he doesn't see a black person in trouble and that's what people have to understand. he went after elijah cummings because leisure elijah cummings went after kevin. that's what people have trouble understanding's. you don't hurt his feelings because he knows he's not a racist. >> capri: how i think elizabeth warren will frame it, he's afraid. every time you get a nickname from president trump it means you get some street credibility, you're going to go out on fund-raiser on it. if he's resurrecting pocahontas as his "free bird," it plays into elizabeth warren's hand. i suggest he lay off. >> dana: do you want to make a reference for me go to break? >> emily: it was just like i was at the concert the other night, i agree, however, the president's president of everyone and so it goes against the narrative that a lot of the left have clung to, that he's a racist no matter what but this example will serve only potentially to those on the fence or open to rational reas

one republican, senator tim scott.e any chance in hell that congress will do anything this time than all the other? the odds are low. therepublicans are pretty set in working with them. the only thing that changes is grassroots pressure. it's the idea that voters will inflict the cost on people who don't do anything. >> the idea of going out school shopping, new baby at home. what will change america's psyche on this? >> it's going to come back to politics, meaning politics is what prevents us from dealing with what most people support, doing something about this, but it will take electoral pog -- politics. people see the shootings. something has to be done. >> thank you so much. >> thank you. >>> president trump to address the nation at around 10 a.m. eastern. cnn will have live coverage. >>> a former vice president joe biden talks guns, white nationalists and president trump in an exclusive interview with anderson cooper. tonight at 8. let's get a check on cnn business. a check on global markets where they're all bas

congressman, his retiring, hurd's retirement means now that senator tim scott will be the only blackepublican in the entire congress. my friend at politico also smartly pointed this out and it really caught my eye. there are now more republican members of the house jamd jim than there are women running for reelection. how do you spin that? >> look, this is part of the shrinking of the republican party. and really it's disastrous for them in the future. yes, he was a republican, he was black. he was also young. i think he's 41 years old. so in political terms, he's in his adolescence. he has a whole life ahead of him and i hope he finds another way to show public service. and it demonstrates something under donald trump, right. how do people like will hurd survive? now, he was the lone black republican. we know that mee ya love who works with us now as a commentator, right, was the first black woman republican elected to the congress of the united states. gone. and i believe in great measure because donald trump is president of the united states and if you don't agree with me, just li

. >> will hurd earlier, you know, tim scott, south carolina republican.al messages of clarity that this should not be tolerated. this is exactly what it appears to be, based on what law enforcement has already told us, an act of terror, domestic terror. >> and it is bizarre that there should be any kind of partisan split about that. and when i look at trump's comments, i see a lot of defensiveness. i think he sees democrats criticizing him and that gets him in some kind of defensive crouch and he doesn't want to talk about it the way that everyone else is. so the way he's treating this is not the way that a traditional president would treat it. >> so the president has tweeted, his daughter has tweeted just moments ago. ivanka trump tweeting this. white supremacy, like all other forms of terrorism, is an evil that must be destroyed. so we're hearing from the president's daughter but not the president. the same fashion, we are hearing from the president and the daughter via tweet, but it's the president who needs to get out in front. i'm surprised that whet

republicans have to contend with the fact that you now have one african-american representing you, tim scottthat tell you about your party? and that he is now saying, will hurd is saying i want to help change the republican party to make it look more like america. how is he going to do that? that is my big question. what do you do with this party that is becoming more and more white male? >> because the gender issue is a big one, too. you were -- politico had a funny statistic you mentioned earlier. >> there are more men named jim who are white house republicans than female members of congress who are republicans running for re-election. susan brooks from indiana, she's not from a flip district or anything, but she was the recruitment chair and she decided that she was going to leave. martha roby from alabama, the exodus of women from the party and also extremely problematic and they know it is a problem and doesn't seem like anyone knows how to fix it, particularly when your recruitment chair is going out of the door. >> this is one of the disconnects between the elite republican officials

host: that was senator tim scott from sunday.e are getting your thoughts on politicizing mass shootings. stephanie in california, do you think it is happening this week? caller: i think it has been happening for a long time. i think the nra is responsible for a lot of propaganda because every time they suggest gun control, they jump to they are going to take away our guns and they promote fear among all these people and there are very serious misconceptions being thrown around right now. it is not the mentally ill doing these mass shootings. other countries have mentally ill people and don't have these shootings. it is simply not backed up by current research. i have a couple of suggestions. they seem kind of simple. ban high-capacity magazines and assault rifles. ban bump stocks. red flag warning's should be reported by any mandated reporter and anybody with a restraining order should have their guns taken away and anybody with a history of domestic violence should have guns taken away and there are other things i don't think pe

other republican centers including tom tillis of north carolina and tim scott of south carolina remainn the fence. 16 gop senators voted against the 2018 budget deal, dozens have voted against previous agreements making likely there will be additional gop no votes announced. host: we will have live coverage of the senate vote and debate on inpan two with nancy policy ghana yesterday as she tours parts of africa with the house and recess for the next month or so and returns in early september while the senate is out for five weeks. your reaction to the debate last night on cnn, the base that will air this saturday and sunday respectively at 10:30 am eastern , thank you to cnn for allowing us to rebroadcast the debates over the weekend. sarah from rocklin, california, democrats line. caller: i did not watch the debates because my cable company dropped cnn and i did not have access to a computer. host: who is your cable company? caller: wave they just keep taking away from the basic service. i am upset with that first of all. that other news channels could not cover it. something of impor

south carolina republican tim scott was an early champion. >> growing up in a single-parent household for free wld have never been an option for you. >> no. i don't think it is for the average kid in the country. what we've learned is by having a cross section of all of america employed here, i serve hopefully all of america better. >> ryan says interning for a senate subcommittee is already opening doors he never new existed. >> this is insane. i'm meeting people and they say, do you want a job. it's huge. >> you can see how this experience might changeure whole job trajectory. >> absolutely, yes. >> melissa reyes is making contacts too, interning for democrat chuck schumer. >> it's interesting. it's leak, do you want to get coffee? i'm like, wow, you really like coffee. >> 80% of college to congress alumni has stayed in public service. >> there is a generation that's hungry to be part of the difference, who isn't desensitized like a lot of americans are but who do see an opportunity to fix this. >> what's your ultimate goal. >> i just want congress to look like america. i want the a

that would leave tim scott as the lone black republican in congress. >> fewer and fewer moderates on hurd won a couple very close races the last couple times. he ran sort of his district i think did not go for trump but he managed to pull out a victory. so it is an interesting development. >> democrats certainly eyeing his district. >> yes. targeting it already. >> i like what he says though. he says he'll stay involved in politics to help maybe sure the republican party looks like america. that's something they tried to do in the wake of mitt romney's loss. they slipped back a little. >> 20, 30 years. >> we'll stay with politics for our next story. puerto rico's governor is set to resign today and there may not be anyone to replace him when he does. ricardo rossello is supposed to step down this afternoon after weeks of massive public protests. he has nominated a veteran politician and attorney to become secretary of state, the position next in line to become governor. but the senate president says he will not vote for him. and he says there will not be a confirmation hearing on his

after the 2020 election senator tim scott of south carolina will be the only black republican incumbentg statement. i want to get your reaction to it. what this retirement says to you about diversity in the republican party today? >> i say imagine that. a party continuing to isolate and marginalize communities of color. finds themselves not being represented by people of color. this is the doing of the republican party. every generation has the future of the republican party or republican of color if you will. will hurd we had someone the republican party could be proud of with a distinguished record in the intelligence community, thoughtful on policy. at times willing to tike take o president but this is the party of donald trump, not the party of will hurd. a party of personality. not ideology. republicans know their prospects are getting bleaker of retaking the house on an individual basis. their own re-elections are now in jeopardy. every time the president unleashes a torrent of grieveius politics that might seem right for him, he jeopardizes the few remaining seats that reflect th

that leaves senator tim scott in the republican party.ave 13 women, i believe at least one of whom is retiring from the house of representatives. are we at the point in our political system where one party on represents people of color and the other party doesn't? and is that a dangerous situation for us? >> look, these how republicans have enabled donald trump. he lhas day after day made racit remarks, remarks against women, fought against immigrants, fought against people who worship differently. the republican leadership in washington, republican leadership around this country has largely been silent. they have enabled him to continue in that direction. that means they increasingly become the party of racism, of sexism. they are the party of anti-muslim. they are the party that does not represent the kind of america that we want to be. a party that valuing each and every person. they become a party that becomes narrower and that turns on itself. that's not who we want to be as a country. i truly do believe in the worth of every single

[applause] he helped to that celebration possible. kim gray represents the second today. she helped make today possible. we should all thank her for her leadership. these efforts demonstrate what can happen

of course, scott, this would be the event where typically apple's ceo tim cook takes the stage, introduces the new iphones. this year the analysts think the new iphones may look a lot like the current iphone lineup. we would expect new changes, new features, improved camera system, for example, is at least expected to be a big selling point. that is important when you look at surveys consumers often look to cameras as a reason to upgrade as for the iphone franchise, that's been under pressure iphone revenue did drop about 12%. that was a sequential improvement. we know cook has been pulling certain levers there, trade and financing programs to spur demand the invitation is out, scott, september 10th, so a.10:00 a.m. mark your calendars. >> i'm going to be out there on the 9th and 10th, all things tech that's timely. we're looking forward to that. back to our conversation, forgive me for interrupting you. you were saying about why to stay away from >> first of all, i love that apple is tweaking steven weiss by utilizing innovation in the invitation, i think that's great. >> look, they recog
