Doctor, President Trump was down in florida, okay. We had a fundraiser. He had a meeting to talk about Drug Trafficking. Would you have suggest head maybe focus on the pandemic that is killing americans every day while he is visiting florida, which is an epicenter . First, if i was advising the president , i would tell him to stop traveling. Every time he goes somewhere, he puts people at risk. So you have to think about it. The president travels with domestically, there might be 200 people that travel with him. A loft people go in advance. Weve already seen what happens to advanced people and secret Service Agents when they travel to venues during a pandemic. Look at what happened to his team from tulsa. Look what happened to the Vice President s team in phoenix. He puts people at risk. And why would he put people at risk . He could have done this meeting today via teleconference, and thats what he should be doing. He should be sitting tight, preserving his people, looking after his people, and managing the crisis from d. C. He should stop traveling. There was no reason for him to go florida today. All of those people, advance people who had contracted covid and the secret service people. So you do have a point there, dr. Reiner. Susan, i want to bring you in. Your latest piece for the new yorker, you point out how the president attempts to flip anything negative into positive, whether its losing in the Supreme Court or his handling of the coronavirus. You point out how its not working anymore. And its right on. Susan, i have to tell you, i was watching the president give a speech on some Important Initiative that he had made, and i just got the thought. I said is anybody really listening to him or taking him seriously at this moment . Talk to me about that moment. Well, he does increasingly seem to be the president in the bubble, you know, in a way, right. He sort of doing his own thing. This commutation of roger stones sentence today is a good example of that. Its like he has given up trying. You can imagine back in march or april that he would have handled the coronavirus very differently than donald trump might have just said okay, im going to let the experts handle this. I dont want to be blamed one way or the other. And instead he seems to be so much more content in his dream world. His niece mary trump is out with this new book this week and she used a phrase that i thought was very insightful. She said trump has a legacy from his father of toxic positivity. It helps explain why is he always cheerleading for the coronavirus . Were doing great. Were doing great on every measure, always. The inability to accept reality as it is, and to project a sort of crazy positivity. I think that really tells us where were at right now, don, you know . Yeah. And im going put up these poll numbers for you, susan. This is abc news. Only 33 of americans approve of President Trumps handling of the coronavirus. 67 disapprove. The does information and lie, that isnt really helping him. You know angela merkel, the german chancellor this week, she gave a speech. Her first trip outside of germany, because germany is actually getting over the pandemic and managed to flatten their curve. She went to the european parliament. She said a rebuke to populists like donald trump. She said lies and disinformation dont work to combat this virus. And i had to say it was so painful to be in washington listening to that speech and realizing that she is talking about the president of the United States and a country that has not managed to get this under control. Yeah. Dr. Reiner, the mayor of atlanta, Keisha Lance Bottoms planning to go back to phase 1, which means a stayathome order. Do americans in other parts telephone country need to prepare themselves to go back the stay at home orders . You warned of it. Do you think americans need to prepare themselves for that . Well, i think we need more leaders like the mayor of atlanta. What she is doing is politically very difficult, but is medically and from a Public Health perspective the right thing to do. So instead of what we hear from the leadership in the state house in florida, which is were opening schools no matter what, were not closing down, no matter what. We have a leader in atlanta that says things arent going well, now. Were shutting down. There comes a point when the pandemic flares up again that you just cant mask your way out of it. And you actually have to shut down. Thats how new york got out of it, by shutting down. Ridership on the new york city subway dropped 90 . So they shut new york city down. Thats why new york city has less than a 2 Positivity Rate. So we need leaders around the country that are willing to do that. And we need although ive given up on this we need leadership in washington that tells leaders around the country shut down when you need to shut down. So i applaud mayor lance bottoms for doing that. So listen, i want to ask you, you guys about what the president said, dr. Reiner, what the president said about taking a cognitive test recently at walter reed. We talked about it last night. Watch this. I actually took one when i very recently, when i was the radical left was saying is he all there, is he all there . And i proved i was all there, because i aced it. I aced the test. And he should take the same exact test. Theyre very standard tests. I took it at walter reed medical center. In front of doctors, and they were very surprised. They said thats an unbelievable thing. Rarely does anybody do what you just did. Okay. There is a lot there, doctor. If this indeed happened, shouldnt the white house provide some details about when this took place . And is he referring to his recent trip to walter reed or his evaluation in 2018 . Well, his only recent trip to walter reed was unannounced on saturday afternoon in november. So if he had neurocognitive testing then, thats very worrisome, because he would have had a symptom that prompted unannounced in a hurry on a saturday afternoon in november neurocognitive testing, things like a stroke or confusion. He may simply be referring to the test he had two years ago, but he said recent. So if he had a recent test, thats what he is referring to. Its important to note that this is not an intelligence test. This is a test for dementia. Its a dementia test. It asks you to identify a camel and a hippo, and it asks you to subtract 7 from 100 and draw a clock. So this is not an intelligence test. The current guidelines actually dont recommend current screening of older people like the president with this test. They recommend only screening if there is a symptom that warrants concern. Hmm. Interesting. And he aced it. Being able to pick out a camel. He aced it. The camel. Thank you, both. I appreciate it. Breaking news. The u. S.

All right. A lot of news tonight breaking. President trump commuting the prison sentence of roger stone, his longtime associate, who was convicted of seven felonies, including lying to congress as part of Robert Muellers russia investigation. Lets discuss now. Cnn legal analyst elie honig is here. Eli e is a former state and federal prosecutor. Gentlemen, thank you so much for joining tonight. Elie, i want to start with you, because the president s end game has been clear for a very long time, clear as day he is going to grant roger stone clemency. So lets look at the Bigger Picture here which is corruption and abuse of power. Yeah, don, we saw this one coming. Look, this is what corruption looks like. This is just a raw abuse of power. And what makes this pardon i think different from many others or perhaps all others that came before it is lets remember what roger stone was convicted for. He was convicted of lying to congress in order to protect President Donald Trump and then President Trump turns around and commutes roger stones sentence. Its hard to think of a more perfect example of selfdealing than that. Thats right. John, this president continues to use the levers of power and the powers of the Justice Department to protect himself and his crony, punish the people who speak out or try to rein him in. Isnt this what you see from authoritarian regimes . In a word, yes, but he is using the powers of our presidency and the constitution to get away with it. But no president has abused his pardoning power which is in the constitution like this president. And as late as this afternoon, roger stone was saying he hoped and expected to receive a commutation because he hadnt flipped on the president. This is somebody we found out from the prosecutors who resigned were feeling pressure inside the Justice Department to go be lenient against roger stone because of his relationship with the president. Someone who has seen unredacted parts of the Mueller Report was the conduit to wikileaks. And this is somebody who is getting off scotfree because the president is protecting one of his own who didnt turn on him. Its corrupt, as elie said. But this is a case that had to or to do with the president himself. This isnt just about roger stone. This case had to do with the president. Yeah. Yeah. Selfdealing. This is selfprotection. He was afraid that roger stone would flip on him. And the fact that he didnt meant that he was in line for pressure from the Justice Department to some say inevitable events of today. A commutation during a friday night news dump. But dont mistake it. Dont normalize this. This is dangerous abuse of power, again. Yeah. Elie, we have seen this story before, the firing of u. S. Attorney Geoffrey Berman on a friday night. Well sat here, did an entire hour on it. He pardoned Sheriff Joe Arpaio on a friday. He has fired inspectors general on a friday. So this move to commute roger stone, a selfproclaimed difficulty trickster shouldnt come as a surprise to anyone. It is a pattern. And from their point of view, why not keep doing it over and over if they can get away with it . Yeah, don, thus far its been consequencefree. Youre definitely right about that friday night pattern. I dont think anybody announces anything theyre super proud of at 9 00 p. M. On a friday night. Thing is an obvious pattern there. Also, this one is a little different than the others because we need to be thinking about maybe its just my mindset as a prosecutor, but we need to think of the federal statute against bribery. Bribery is exchange of an official act pardoned by a president obviously is an official act in exchange for a thing of value. And if prosecutors could prove that the thing of value here was shutting roger stone up, then you could have a bribery charge. Now there is other evidence out there that the president just thought the case was unjust, but he has been tweeting about wanting to keep roger stone quiet. He tweeted praising roger stone for staying strong while he was attacking other people who testified. So thing is a real potential criminal issue here too. Oh, interesting. And so then what happens then, elie . Come on, you piqued our interest. Well, i dont know if every prosecutor is as aggressive as i was, but look, you cant indict or doj wont, let me say, indict the president while he is in office under their given policy. But he is not going in office forever. He could be out in january of 2021. He could be out in january of 2025. But that should still be enough time, statute of limitations to bring a charge. Whoever inherits that Attorney Generals Office has to take a close look at this. Interesting. John, this is what the Biden Campaign is saying, okay. Let me read it for you. It says President Trump has once again abused his power, releasing this commutation on a friday night, hoping yet again to avoid scrutiny as he lays waste to the norms and the values that make our country a shining beacon to the rest of the world. He will not be shamed. He will only be stopped when americans make their voice heard at the ballot box this fall. Enough. So joe biden is saying this wont end until the Trump Presidency does, until the Trump Presidency is over . Yeah. And, look, if he is a oneterm president , loses the election, you can expect a flurry of pardons right up to the night of january 19th before inauguration day. No president pardons are usually used to take care of someone who has been the victim of a great injustice. Its done to advance justice. Not a selfprotection racket or awarding political sycophants. This is the first president who has gotten this kind of treatment after the pressure from the doj. After the Additional Information came out. Just as folks saw this train coming down the tracks doesnt mean it shouldnt shock you this. Is the worst in some ways of the abuse of the pardon power weve seen to date. John, elie, thank you both. I appreciate it. Thank you. Now we want to turn our focus to something that is very important, and that is the coronavirus. Cases soaring in oklahoma with a significant increase in tulsa county. Cases in tulsa continue to rise following the president s rally there on june 20th and protests that took place around the same time. So joining me now is karen keith. Karen is the tulsa county commissioner. Karen, thank you so much. I appreciate you joining us this evening. I know its a very busy time for you. The entire state of oklahoma, commissioner, is seeing a rise in coronavirus cases. Currently icu available in hospitals are below 10 in the metro area. In tulsa, two of four hospitals are already at zero. One is at 7 availability, and the counties hospitals with the largest amount of beds is at 3 . Commissioner, this is really alarming. It is. We do have some additional beds that can be utilized at our osu medical center. The corps put those together for us. But nobody wants to have to utilize those beds. But this spike, we expected it, and now were seeing it. And im just really hoping in the next couple weeks that it will taper off. So what are you going to do . You mentioned beds, and you said that youre hoping, but what what is tulsa going to do if this continues to increase . Well, i think one of the things we have to do is everybody wearing their masks. Our small businesses, as you know were hurt terribly when everything shut down. And its the one simple thing that all of us can do is wear a mask and try to stop the spread. Its not asking a lot. And it shouldnt be a political issue. This is about, you know, keeping our restaurants and our retails and our hotels standing. And one thing and if we all feel powerless to stop this, we can wear a mask. And ive seen it in other communities. And it works. People get used to it. It becomes normalized. So thats where im hoping were heading. The head of our Health Department he said his staff are stretched. They are exhausted, and they cant continue to see over 100 new cases every day. So its just tough. Commissioner, today kicks off a threeday art and shopping fair at expo square in tulsa, an indoor event that usually attracts thousands of people. Even with the spike in tulsa, masks arent required there. You were just talking about the importance of mask. You wanted the make masks mandatory for that fair. What happened . Well, i am one of three individuals and five on a trust, but anyway, i will tell you this. The women who are running that event are giving masks to everybody along with hand sanitizer. And they were very serious about this. All their vendors are Wearing Masks. So they are doing the best that they can possibly do. And this is an event that had been planned for a long time and wouldnt probably be in this position had we not had the rally and all the protests and so on that made a spike. I dont know that theyd be getting as much attention, but they are doing a good job. I was checking in today, and word is over 75 of the people are wearing their masks as well as all the vendors are required to wear masks. But its not ideal, youre right. Tulsa county currently undergoing a spike in cases that many have linked to trumps rally on june 20th as well as a protest at the same time. Even dr. Dart pointed it out in his press release this week. Listen to this. The past few days weve had almost 500 cases, and we knew we had several large events over a little over two weeks ago, which is about right. So i guess we just connect the dots. So you were outside the trump rally. What did you see as far as masks and distancing . No masks, no social distancing. Now i did see a few the staff were Wearing Masks outside. A few of them were. But the crowd itself, no. No. It was and people were from everywhere. I talked to people from boston, from florida, from michigan. Every state you can imagine, texas. A lot of folks from texas. But all around. And of course im sure we had a lot of oklahomans there as well. And thats part of why were seeing a spike. Not just in tulsa, but in the whole state. Well, commissioner, thank you. We wish you the best of luck. By the way, amarillo is one of my favorite names for a city. And its a great place. Oh, nice. Thank you. Thank you.

The top writer for fox news host Tucker Carlson has resigned from the network after a cnn investigation uncovered his racist and sexist comments on an online message board. Cnn senior media reporter oliver darcy broke the story. He joins me now. Good evening, sir. Thank you so much. So tell us what you have learned about this exTucker Carlson lead writer. Tucker carlsons top writer we found had been posting on a message board under a pseudo name racist comments, sexist comments, frankly, comments that are too horrific to read on air to you largely. They used very vulgar language. And its just shocking to read. I think if viewers go and check it out on cnn. Com, theyll be pretty stunned. Lets zoom back. What were looking at here is the person that was helping to write the monologues of Tucker Carlson which are seen by millions of people each night. He has a top rate showed on cable news, the top rated show in cable history in the last quarter. The person helping Tucker Carlson shape those monologues has been posting for years vulgar, racist horrific comments on a message board. We dont know for sure if this writer in the monologues that the president has shared. But trump does share a lot of Tucker Carlsons monologues. And according to this writer, he had recently told his alumni magazine that he writes everything that is in Tucker Carlsons teleprompter. He said whatever comes out of his mouth, he has written the first draft of it is. That correct . Something like that. Thats correct, yeah. So i want to read one of the commence. You said some of them are too horrific. One of the comments you uncovered on your investigation on the post this past june. He wrote black dudes staying inside playing call of duty is probably one of the biggest factors keeping crime down. That is bad neuenough, and then got worse, correct . It got a lot worse. Frankly, thats a disgusting comment. But if you go alaska and look at the story, youll see things again that we just cant repeat on air. You know, this was behavior that was occurring over the past few years, but also as recently as this week. I think the first example in our story that we site was from this week. Taking together it paints a picture of one of the top writers at fox news. He writes the scripps for the top show on the channel has been engaged in some pretty pretty disturbing behavior on his spare time under the pseudo name that we uncovered to be him. Oliver, talk to me what fox and neff are saying about the investigation, because its not as if they havent been under fire already for the kinds of things tucker says on his broadcasts. Fox news only said that this person had resigned. They didnt talk any further about it. They didnt release any other statement. That was all they said. A spokesperson for the network told me earlier today that Tucker Carlson could not be reached for comments. Tucker himself did not directly address this on his program tonight, but he did do a segment about cancel culture and seemed to allude to the story saying that cnn in particular is a force of cancel culture that is i guess apparently in his eyes not good for society. And like you said, tucker has been in trouble. He has gotten into hot water over the past few years for some comments. I think we have some of these comments where he has called White Supremacy a hoax, among other things. This may be a lot of things, this moment were living through. But it is definitely not about black lives. And remember that when they come for you. And at this rate. That will. If you were to assemble a list, a hierarchy of concerns of problems this country faces, where would White Supremacy be on the list . Right up there with russia, probably. Its actually not a real problem in america. White supremacy. Thats the problem. This is a hoax. Just like the russia hoax. Its a conspiracy theory. In the year 2000, hazeltons population was 2 hispanic. Just 16 years later, hazelton is majority hispanic. Thats a lot of changes. How would you feel if that happened in your neighborhood . You know, there are too many comments, don, like that that if you wanted to actually play that, youd have to play hours of the comments where Tucker Carlson has ignited controversy for his discussions on race. But those comments look a little different maybe two years tonight when they know the person who wrote the first draft perhaps of some of them was openly posting racist comments, sexist comments on this online message board. Its interesting a cancel culture if thats indeed what he was referencing, because cnn did not fire him or cause him to resign. That was fox. So if anybody is cancelling that, it would be fox news. Its a bit shocking. Its a bit shockinging, don, that fox news didnt come out with a stronger statement. This is, again, one of their top writers and they didnt have anything more to say than hes resigned. Its shocking that Tucker Carlson is top writer outed as someone posting racist comments. And he rails against cancel culture. This is really strange behavior at the very least from tucker and the network there. It says a lot. Okay. Oliver, thank you very much. I want to make sure because we talk about these sort of issues on my new podcast. I want to make sure that youre aware of it. Its called silence is not an option. And were taking on hard conversations about racism, being black in america. You can find it on apple podcasts or your favorite podcast app. President trump pushing for schools to fully reopen, despite warnings from health experts. Im going to ask the superintendent of the dallas independent district will there be friday night lights in texas this fall. A lot of folks ask me why their dishwasher doesnt get everything clean.

As the coronavirus continues to worsen across the country, parents are all over are wondering what the school year is going to look like. When will it start . Will it be in person . And what about school sports. Lets discuss now. Michael hinajosa is the superintendent of the Dallas Independent School district. And he joins us now. Thank you so much for joining us. I appreciate it. Dallas is facing a surge in coronavirus cases. Will it start on time and what will it look like . Well, were not certain, don. Thanks for having me this evening. Were scheduled to gone to the 17th. But with the changing data that is happening almost on a daily basis, almost on an hourly basis, were having to dust off our backup plan, and maybe im going to be presenting to my school board in a couple of weeks alternative option. We may have to delay the actual start of school so we can do it in a safe environment and have the appropriate learning that needs to take place. A little bit of troubles here. You said you may have to do it later . Is that what you said . Thats one of the options were going to present to the school board about maybe starting after labor day. That would buy us three weeks to see if these numbers can get under control and we can have a lowering of the cases in our county and our city. If that happens, then we have a much better chance for success. But thats not a decision that i can make. So ill have to be presenting options to the school board what are the pluses and minuses of us trying to delay a few weeks in order to get better control of our situation here. Its good. At least you have are having a discussion about it and there is a backup plan. The question Everyone Wants to know as well, know the answer, to will there be friday night lights in texas this fall, superintendent . Well, let me tell you this. One of our teams is in the state Basketball Championship in march, and there were only 1300 cases in the whole month of march in Dallas County, and the tournament, the state basketball tourism was stopped abruptly. Our team won the semifinals, and there was no championship. And we have not had a single sporting event since then. Let me just tell you this today. There are almost 1300 cases a day in Dallas County now. So the situation has gotten much worse. And yet football is a mutch more violent and contact sport that basketball is. Of course its outdoors. Ive been a superintendent for 26 years. Ive been an administrator for almost 40 years. And ive never seen anything like this. So just by watching the numbers and looking at everything that is going on, its very difficult for me to think that we could have friday night football like we normally would have it. Oh, wow. Well, thats news. What are you hearing from parents and students about having football this fall . We love our football in texas. In fact, there is a little joke that says there is two sports in texas, football and spring football. Which is not true. We have a lot of great sports. In fact, one of our district goals is to have all students involved in some extracurricular activity. So people are in denial right now about the truth, but several medical experts have come out and said even the big ten has canceled their nonconference games. Even these very powerful large conferences that have a lot of revenue have had to make some pivot. So School Districts are going have to consider other options. I dont have the authority to do that. Its done by the state of texas. Im the university of michigan scholastic league. I think the data is emerging. There have been some local polls, and im surprised how many parents are lets just punt this to later and make sure were safe before we go back out to friday night football. Superintendent, best of luck to you. Thank you very much. Be safe. Thanks for having me, don. Well be right back. You get used to pet odors in your car. You think it smells fine, but your passengers smell this. Eliminate odors youve gone noseblind to for up to 30 days with the febreze car vent clip. Wow, it smells good in here.

Cnns Stephanie Elam explains why. As the nation grapples with changing how Law Enforcement treats black people, more protests are honing in on elected leadership, and whos policing the police. Jackie lacy must go in los angeles, black lives matter has been demonstrating for two and a half years. Their target . A black woman. Los angeles County District attorney jackie lacy. As a black woman, i would rather be celebrating other black women, and i do. Its not a matter of emotion. Its a matter of struggling for justice for our people. Protestors recasting the novembers da race calling out frontrunner, incumbent lacey, for what they say is an unwillingness to prosecute Police Officers for deadly shootings. How does it feel to hear black lives matter target you . Its surreal, right . Theyre treating me like im the man. But, if they only knew that im the girl from the neighborhood. Im the first africanamerican woman to hold this job in 150 years. And, here, i get in here, and the most vocal group who wants to take me out is a group known as black lives matter. Now in her second term, lacey is up for reelection in november. A seat she nearly won, outright, in the primary. Gaining just shy of 50 of the vote. But that vote was before George Floyds death. Before the nation, even amid the pandemic, turned its attention to the checkered relationship between the law and people of color. In june, congressman adam schiff, pulling his support. Saying in a tweet, that he feels his endorsement a year ago of the District Attorney, no longer has the same meaning. I dont know a lot about why he pulled his support. But i do know, and i have heard from elected, that theyre being threatened via emails. With a list of what they call jackie lacys seven deadly sins, blm los angeles argues lacey cares more about her Law Enforcement ties and the oldguard establishment, than she does about people of color. Lacey counters that she is led by the law, and says only a fraction of Police Shooting cases brought to her since she took office involved unarmed individuals. You may look at a shooting, by an officer, and say, oh, they could have shot him in the leg. Thats not the test, under california law. The test is, was somebodys life in danger . The division between lacey and black lives matter reaching a boiling point in march. Lets invite her out to the Community Meeting that she committed to. When protestors showed up at laceys home. Good morning. Get off of my porch. Are you going to shoot me . I will shoot you. Get off of my porch. Thats laceys husband, pointing a gun at protestors, on the front porch of their house. The District Attorney did apologize for her husbands actions. But that wasnt enough for black lives matter. I think it, also, speaks volumes that david lacey was not charged in that act. I, especially, dont agree that you ought to be able to come on their property. I think that crosses a line. For your husband, was that crossing a line for him . I think so. It was just the two of us in there. And, you know, it was a scary it was a scary event. Ironically, laceys opponent is former lapd officer, who more recently, was san franciscos da. Black lives matter doesnt make endorsements but promises to take whoever wins to task. No matter who occupies the office, theres going to be a problem with the office, itself. And so, were going to have to hold accountable, whoever occupies the office. If you were to win your third term, does it look differently than where you are now . My next term will be my last term. I want to continue to use the bullypulpit of the District Attorneys office for change. I dont want it to end like this, right, that i was the first africanamerican to hold this job. And protestors ran around. That doesnt seem like a just ending. Now, besides schiff, Los Angeles Mayor Eric Garcetti has also seemed to walk back his support of lacey. Telling a criminal Justice Reform website, it might be time for a change. Though, he endorsed lacey last year. Also, interesting to note, too, though, that san fran sicisco mr london breed is supporting lacey and not gnot who was the distrit attorney in her city. Thank you. And thank you, everyone.
