In lake charles. Its pretty bad, its pretty catastrophic for us. My public works director was one of the first guys i visited with his morning, and his words were that it looks like a tornado hit every street in lake charles. Harris the storm has been downgraded to a category 1 now now is it moves inland. However, it is expected to remain hurricane all the way to the arkansas border. The threat along the way, tornadoes. We have reporters in fort stomach port arthur, texas, galveston, texas, lafayette, louisiana, and lake charles. Jeff from fox business is there. Jeff . Its difficult to find any structure in this town of lake charles that has not sustained some damage in some way. Some of it minor, others a bit much like this. A total loss. Absolutely right, whether you want to say a bomb went off on every street or a tornado hit every street, that is what 115 mileperhour hurricanes do. This storm, as you report, started in cameron, right there on the gulf coast, and marched about 20 miles north and hit this dead on. We were in the eye of the storm last night. It wasnt actually ive been in the eyes of storms before, it was actually kind of a rough i. A lot of activity, even in the eye. Of course, those eye walls, also. Big trouble. Theres going to be a big cleanup, theres a lot of power out. I think the entire town is pretty much without power. And now, just a moment ago, we are able to see the chemical fire. In that direction, a chemical fire at a plant called biochem had been burning. A lot of warnings and shelter in place ideas for the local residents. I dont see it out there now. I dont see that same smoke. Perhaps that is some indication theyve got it under control, or the fires out. Either way, probably good news. But just another i dont know, another challenge for folks who are in the middle of well, there in the middle of a big challenge in the town of lake charles. Paris . Harris when i hear you say shelter in place and i see theres not really a shelter behind you, and maybe some farther out that look a little bit better, that is tough to do an environment like this where we know we dont have utilities. We wish the best for those people who are near that fire, as well as all the damage of the hurricane. Jeff flock, thank you. You and you may now is the spokesperson for Calcasieu Parish in louisiana. Thats the governing body for lake charles and the surrounding area. Thank you so very much for being with me right now. I just kind of want to get the lay of the land from you about how you support people at this point, and with the Biggest Challenges right now. The Biggest Challenges we just have so much damage, structural damage to homes, businesses, the utility infrastructure is a nightmare. So many power lines are down, its going to be a real challenge for the Utility Companies to get that back into working order so we can recover. Its a mess. Harris we are showing our audience right now the first aerial footage from port arthur, texas. What you are describing in your area of louisiana, tom, we are now seeing for the first time what has happened in port arthur. Can you tell me how far away, if you know, this is from you . Because its pretty bad, and that would really tell us what youre dealing with, because pretty much louisiana took this dead on. Im in lake charles. Port arthur would be about 50 miles to the southwest. Harris wow. This thing was wide. Tell me this, i know that there was so much prep ahead of time. Did people heed the warnings to get out . I talked with the mayor yesterday. He said that he was still talking with people, nick was, trying to get them out, telling them dont stay because it would be a while that dell might before we can come and get you if thats the case. How did that work out . I think you would always like for a larger percentage of the people to evacuate then end up doing so. I think that is true in this case, as well. Dont forget, initially, this was supposed to be a category 1 or 2 storm when we first started making the evacuation decisions on monday. That was for a voluntary evacuation. A few people said, yeah, lets go ahead and go. The next day it became a mandatory evacuation, as the storm began to intensify. Zen , on wednesday, in the morning,d that it was now a category 4 and still intensifying, then a lot of people panicked, wisely, and left. One of the things that happens, after a storm like this, is that the people who stayed sometimes need to be evacuated, especially if they dont have transportation. I am not hearing that thats the case, but they are quite a few people here. There are more people here for this storm aftermath and hurricane rita in 2005, i can assure you. Harris wow. Tom, as we look at these first images coming out of port arthur, texas, some of these buildings look like something from above lifted them just drop them from 37,000 feet. For some of the structures, as you were describing, utilities, everything, just crushed. 50 miles away from you, and we know where you are was really where they took the brunt of this. These pictures are heartbreaki heartbreaking. Tom, we appreciate your time, and we know the work that you have a head. I know youve got fema coming from phoenix, arizona. I was seeing all sorts of search and rescue coming from different areas of the country. Massachusetts. You will get help and prayers from across the country. Thank you. Thank you. Harris protests over the death of jacob blake in kenosha, wisconsin, stayed mostly peaceful last night, as Governor Tony Evers doubled the number of National Guard troops. As the Justice Department sent more than 200 federal agents to the city, yesterday the Wisconsin Department of justice released the name of the officer who shot blake and provided Additional Details about that incident. Police also arrested an illinois teenager suspected of killing two people, injuring a third, during the protest tuesday night. Mike tobin has all of it from kenosha. Mike . Hey, harris. A new development, the democratic nominee, joe biden, just said on msnbc hes considering coming here to kenosha but he doesnt want to be part of the problem. He wants to do it safely and bring the white and black community together. Something new we can show you as well is video we havent seen before, of that 17yearold suspect from illinois, accused of shooting and killing two people, wounding a third, during the riots on tuesday night. After the shooting, that suspect put his hands up, apparently surrendering to police, but police and tactical vehicles drive past him to render aid to the people who were on the ground. The New York Times reports that 17yearold suspect was being chased when he fired the first round of shots. The video shows very clearly he was being pursued when he fired the second round of shots. A fourth night of protest was peaceful with no major incidents where the greater presence of National Guard, and the dreamt of justice has deployed those 200 federal agents to kenosha. They are seen around town investigating. The Wisconsin Division of criminal investigation, part of the department of justice, has named to the kenosha officer who shot jacob blake. The dci says Rusten Sheskey shot blake seven times in the back pay they all said there was a knife and the driver side of the video. You can see jacob blake on that video lunging into the drivers side of the vehicle when the officer opened fire. Harris . Harris mike tobin, thank you very much. Continuing to do all of the reporting that is necessary there to bring us the details. Appreciate it. We have this breaking news. Actually, if you watched that box on the bottom right of the screen, you will see this remember, the hurricane until it got arkansas. The outer bands are whipping, as you can see, weeping little rock now. It is in arkansas and it has been downgraded to a Tropical Storm fay as it moves on through and out. We are still told that the collateral concern would be twisters that this thing might spawn, and we will keep you posted as the hurricane and now Tropical Storm laura is on the move from louisiana and texas, into arkansas now.

Other speakers include ivanka trump, Senate Majority leader mitch mcconnell, House Minority leader kevin mccarthy, and the widow of a retired st. Louis Police Captain who was killed while trying to protect a story from looters during the early protesting the turn violent. In his speech the president is expected to go after joe biden and draw a stark contrast between the parties on crime, immigration, and china. He was Vice President mike pence from last night. Last night joe biden didnt say one word about the violence and chaos engulfing cities across this country. Let me be clear. The hard truth is you wont be safe and Joe Bidens America. Harris Vice President joe biden fired back just a short time ago. He views this as a political benefit to him. He is rooting for more violence, not less. What is he doing, besides pouring gasoline on the fire . This happens to be Donald Trumps america. Harris Kristin Fisher with more know from the house. Kristin . Hey, harris. Before the big speech tonight, President Trump will be stopping by femas headquarters to get an update on the hurricane, and he is expected to talk about it tonight. But this hurricane is not going to be like years past. Hurricanes did disrupt the rnc back in 2008 and in 2012. We are also just now getting our hands on an expert from President Trump speech tonight. The Trump Campaign has released a few of them. A top Campaign Officials says this is going to be very tough speech from President Trump, because the American Public has a very tough choice come november. Here is a direct quote. At no time before have voters face a clear choice between two parties, two visions, to cope philosophies, or two agendas. Over the last 47 years, that the Democratic Convention you barely heard a word about their agenda, but thats not because they dont have one. Its because their agenda is the most extreme set of proposals ever put forward by a major party nominee. So, a big focus of the speech tonight is going to be President Trump comparing his vision for america with joe bidens vision for america. Expect him to hit the former Vice President very hard on the law order front, saying he has not been tough enough in condemning the violence in cities from portland to kenosha, which is what you are seeing here. Dont forget, kenosha is one of the biggest if not the biggest battleground states this cycle, wisconsin. The elaborate stage where President Trump will deliver the speech is already set on the south lawn of the white house. There will be a live audience. Harris, the not so secret surprise tonight . We are expecting some fireworks over the washington monument. Harris . Harris that will be beautiful. All right, Kristin Fisher, thank you very much. I want to bring in now marc short, chief of staff or Vice President mike pence. I would have to imagine having a pretty good day today after your boss spoke last night. Who is President Trump, do you think, looking to appeal to tonight in his speech . Thanks for having me back on. I think he did a phenomenal job last night laying out the contract. I think you will see more of that from the president. As far as the voters that need to be reached, i think this president has done a phenomenal job in 2016, a lot of the bluecollar workers in Middle America and realize a Democrat Party has left them behind. So much of washington has, which is why it was so effective to campaign against the swamp and reinforce the president as an outsider. Four years later, the president has so many accomplishments to walk through for the American People to remind them of why they put their faith in them four years ago, and how he created 7. 5 million new jobs in his first three years. How he set forth with a new Foreign Policy that made america safer. How we will commit to keeping our streets in america safe. And he will continue to win over those midwestern voters who sometimes voted democrat in the past, seeing somebody who stood up for them and will continue to fight for trade deals that are better for them, too. Harris this has just happened, joe biden is in delaware and he is giving an interview right now. Just moments ago he went after the president s coronavirus response. Lets watch that, and, marc, i will get your reaction to it. Covid is out of control. He is doing very little, hes not prepared for it. He hasnt respond to it, and he continues to be in a position where he does nothing to deal with it. Harris marc . Well, harris, i think the response this administration put forward to a pandemic that came from china come of this president was the first to shut down travel from china, that Vice President biden said was a xenophobic action. Speaker pelosi would dance in the streets of chinatown saying it was safe to come there. This president , as you can see, he has taken steps that we now have over 800,000 tests a day. More than six times and have a country around the globe, to make sure people are getting answers on whether or not they are infected with the virus. Harris marc, forgive me for cutting and, because we will have to leave go. At the cdc did some Different Things now with testing. The president taking some criticism about that, changing the parameters about it. Did the white house take a role in that . Really telling the cdc to make those changes . Weve had those conversations constantly at the task force level, harris. Well be meeting again this afternoon. Those are always deliberated. I think week give guidance to make independent decisions, but i think the doctors and scientists there felt that updated guidance was appropriate. Whats important to remember is that nobody is being discouraged from testing. Its just a matter of wait times. The reality is over 800,000 tests a day is a remarkable number from where we were several months ago. Harris marc short, always great to have you on the program. Last night of the rnc, knight 4, rather. Well be covering it. Thank you. Some democrats reportedly fear that violent protests in cities like kenosha, wisconsin, could hurt them with swing voters. Remember, they didnt even mention whats been going on in the streets with the rioting at their Convention Last week when they had a bully pulpit. Plus, shocking images of the damage from now Tropical Storm laura, as louisiana activates the whole National Guard for the first time in years. Life team fox coverage ahead.

I just pray that theyve lost more people than they thought. I remain concerned that we werent prepared enough for this brutal hurricane. Donald trump keeps saying we are going to be safe, but well see. I just hope and pray people get through this. Harris that, of course, democratic nominee joe biden after laura slammed the gulf coast as a category 4. It has now been downgraded to a Tropical Storm, still dumping torrential rain. Forecasters warning it could bring a dangerous storm surge along with spawning tornadoes. Chief meteorologist Rick Reichmuth is tracking laura from the fox weather center. Rick, everybody weve talked with, they were, in fact, ready for the storm. It was, in fact, the beast. Yeah, really an incredibly intense storm. Maybe fortunately hitting an area of the gulf coast that is not really populated, so that probably kept things maybe a little bit better in control. I tell you what, such an incredibly strong storm. This is kind of the history of the storm, it moved all across the islands in the caribbean. Puerto rico, hispaniola, and cuba. That kept things really under control, meaning it didnt really strengthen until it had the waters of the gulf. I will tell you, these waters in the gulf right now are really warm, aboveaverage temperatures and all viewed my mental conditions there for storms right now. I think, because we are heading in toward the peak of the season, and this has been a really active season, get ready for more. We are going to continue to watch this now, the worst of the rain, the heaviest of the rain, came ashore last night. 150mileanhour storm around cameron, louisiana. It has about 400 people, not a Huge Population area. Winds of 150 miles per hour, thats what the aircraft saw. Take a look, these are actually recordings, so would have to be in a spot where the wind happens and a lot of the gauges get knocked out. 134 miles an hour in lake charles, louisiana. Tornado concerns will continue throughout the day today as the storm continues to pull toward the north. Thatll bring moisture in from the gulf and the heaviest of the rain right now across parts of arkansas, harris. A lot of that area will start to become more become more mountainous in nature and thatll cause more flash flooding throughout the remainder of the day today and into tomorrow. Harris . Harris Rick Reichmuth, thank you very much for the latest. I want to bring in louisiana activating its full National Guard. This is actually for the first time in eight years, as hurricane, no tropicals to, laura hit the coast as a cat 4. Brigadier general Keith Waddell joins me now from the office of Homeland Security and Emergency Preparedness in baton rouge. He is the adjunct general of the louisiana National Guard. Great to see you today, always wish it were under circumstances where you are activation werent as needed, but it sounds like you are ready, and thats a lot of people to be activated at one time. Yes, maam. We have 5400 guardsmen currently on duty. We had a great plan coming in, based upon the effects of hurricane laura. Our team engaged very quickly this morning, getting out, doing assessments, working with the local authorities, state and federal authorities, as well. Just getting the job done. Harris brigadier general, for people who look at these pictures, you guys are experts at knowing you can look at something and really tell what kind of a storm it was. We were told this was mostly wind, and those winds were above 150 miles per hour. What kind of damage do you anticipate . We havent even seen 10 of what im sure we will see in the next 2448 hours. Im sure we will get to do some overflights today, but a lot of the information weve gotten from the units that are on the ground is there is substantial wind damage throughout lots of communities in southwest louisiana. Once those assessments are done, we can develop our plans on how we are going to actually work to mitigate a lot of the disaster that has happened throughout southwest louisiana. We got engineered teams in place, engineer assessment teams. We are talking about points of distribution for our citizens so that we can get mrds, water, and tarps are to the civilians, or the citizens that are in need. Harris meals ready to eat. Youre on the ground. Brigadier general Keith Waddell, appreciate your leadership and your time today. Thank you. Thank you for yours, as well. Have a great day. Harris you, too.

Com Harris Police in portland, oregon, declared an Unlawful Assembly and named several arrests last night after protesters attacked an immigratn and Customs Enforcement building and threw objects at officers. In seattle, police and protesters used quick dry cement on monday to seal the door of her precinct they tried to light on fire. Matt finn is live for us outside the east precinct in seattle. Matt . Harris, we want to begin with portland, because last night there was another Unlawful Assembly declared there. It was the sixth night in a row that an Unlawful Assembly or a riot was declared there. Portlands mayor was initially blaming the presence of federal agents in that city as inciting the violence, but those agents have been long gone, and last night was the 91st night of unrest in that city. Police say hundreds of people marched to the i. C. E. Building. Security cameras were intentionally disabled with some protesters throwing rocks at police, injuring one officer. Lasers flashed into officers eyes. Police say they warned them over a law speaker dome iconic loudspeaker that failure to leave would result in pepper spray. 11 were arrested last night. Back here live in seattle, this is the area formally known as c. H. O. P. They said rioters jumped the fence, quick dry cement was placed inside the lock of a door, and a fire was lit outsi outside. The man was arrested yesterday on federal arson charges. He has been transferred to federal custody, the president of seattles police union tells us criminal acts like a fire are not protests. I would like to see our local elected officials condemn the criminal actions on behalf of these domestic terrorists. If they did more profoundly, i think it could have a big way of trying to stop these actions from taking place. A Seattle Police officer is on paid leave right now after video appeared to show him driving o on the sidewalk and calling protesters cockroaches. Harris . Harris wow. Matt finn, thank you very much. Democratrun cities across this country are being overrun by violent mobs. The violence is rampant. There is looting, chaos, destruction, and murder. President trump is the law and order president , from our borders and our backyard. We will have law and order on the streets of this country, for every american, of every reese and creed and color. Harris several speakers at the Republican NationalConvention Last night heavily pushing President Trumps message of law and order. Some democrats are reportedly concerned, worried that the unrest and kenosha, wisconsin, could incur some swing state voters to vote for President Trump in november, after condemning the violence and a video message, joe biden, just today, about an hour ago, again culture piece. How do i condemn violence in any form, whether its looting or wherever it is. I spoke to the family. Mom was a fairly straightforward. This is not who we are as a family, this is not who my son is. We condemn the violence. Harris check your watch. Is it too late on the calendar and this time for him to pipe up on this chimeric new york post, joe biden finally break silence on urban violence. Too late . The power panel now. Gianno caldwell, fox news political analyst. Jessica tarlov, fox news contributor. Welcome to both. I will ask you the same question. Jessica, well start with you. Why not use the biggest political season to address was going on . Criminal rioting, looting, and criminal attacks on police. It didnt happen at the dnc. Is it too late for joe biden n now . Jessica i dont think it is too late for joe biden now. I certainly think it could have been addressed last week during the Democratic Convention, and found a way to find a middle ground, obviously talking about how important the movements for social and Racial Justice are, sparked by the death of george floyd a few months ago, and how inappropriate looting and rioting is. Weve been talking about this a lot during the noon hour, on outnumbered, harris. You know how i feel that the issue and im heartened to see joe biden talking about it more forcefully now and will be out in front of the issue. Harris i have a lot to get to. You give me your answer. Gianno, i come to you with the same question. Why did they not talk about it then . Gianno they didnt want to offend their voters. You have a number of individuals within the Democratic Party who have been shouting defund the police, and actually putting it into action. At least 13 cities that have defunded the police, new york, would billion, l. A. , 150 million, centers of school, 120. Portland, 16 million. The list goes on. When you have an environment where you can say defund the police, to me that says you really dont care about law and order or public safety. Sure, you really have shown the voters that you dont care about their safety. I know they are beginning to speak about it, only because they see a shift in the poll members in President Trumps favor. Harris look at what joe biden just said a short time ago about President Trump and violence. He views this as a political benefit to him. He is rooting for more violence, not less. He is clear about that. What is he doing . Pour gasoline on the fire. This happens to be Donald Trumps america. Harris that is quite an accusation. We will go in reverse order now. Gianno . Gianno well, it is all of our america, its not just the president s america. The truth be told, President Trump has offered many of these democratic cities the opportunity to work with the federal government, send in the National Guard and other elements of the federal government to quell the violence. More often than not, they have rejected those offers. This is what we have as a result. These are the ramifications of the rejection and defending the police. Harris quickly, i want to look at some headlines. Democrats are reportedly worried about the violence in kenosha actually helping trump in some way. A politico headline they are. Reading, it is playing into trumps hands. Dems fear swing state damage from kenosha unrest. The New York Times, how chaos in kenosha is already swing voters. I come to you for reaction, jessica. Jessica i think it is definitely concerning, not only the fact that people are dying and we have had a vigilante cross state borders and come killed two people in kenosha, as well as the violence and rioting and looting going on. But the fact that weve seen a tremendous drop in support for the black lives Matter Movement in wisconsin. Democrats are definitely paying attention to that and trying to find a way to find some middle ground between, like i said, racial and social justice movements, and making sure we have a safe environment. Joe biden is absolutely correct. I have watched every single moment of the rnc this week, and they show all this footage about whats going on in america, saying, this will be Joe Bidens America if you would like him. This is Donald Trumps america. For Kellyanne Conway to come on our network this morning and say that this falls that democrats feet, who is the guy in charge . They want us to take the blame for everything that happened during the obamabiden years. Trump does on this. Gianno democrats jessica what about portland . Harris gianno, i knew it would be fiery, and im going to come back to you in a few minutes, but ive got to move on. I promise, ill be right back. The doj is now seeking information from states over the handling of Nursing Homes. I wanted to get to this, this is important, because weve done a lot of reporting about this at this hour. Nursing homes, and the coronavirus pandemic. Why democratic governors, a few of them, are calling the move politically motivated to go after democratic governors who actually expose Nursing Homes to more covid19. A live report, next.

Another lifechanging technology from abbott. So you dont wait for life. You live it. Harris the department of justice is demanding answers from four democratic governors over how they handled covid19 in Nursing Homes. However, governors andrew cuomo of new york, Gretchen Whitmer of michigan are both calling them politically motivated. They say, its no coincidence, the moment the Trump Administration is caught weakening the cdcs covid19 testing guidelines to artificially lower the number of positive cases, they launch this nakedly partisan deflection. Alex hogan now joins me from new york sayinnew york city wit. Speak of the department demanding more information from these governors of how they protected patients in Nursing Homes. So far, nationwide, coronavirus has killed more than 68,000 coronavirus patients in these longterm care facilities. That request will look at whether the governors disorders to send positive patients back to the homes lead to more deaths in new york, new jersey, pennsylvania, michigan. They will pass along informati information, and new jerseys governor responding, the fact that the request from the department of justice has only four states of democratic governors was announced by press during a press release during a Republican National convention speaks volumes about the nature of the review. Michigan and new yorks governor calling the move entirely political. The policy that they criticized that we did in new york, and 14 other states, and florida just implemented the same exact policy. Even after all of this. Speak of the doj will look at the data to determine if theres any civil rights violations. The u. S. Nearing 5. 8 million coronavirus cases. They still want you to remember to wear masks and get the flu vaccine, but today after some Harsh Criticism from medical officials it didnt change the new guidelines, saying not everyone who wants to get a test necessarily needs one. Harris alex hogan, thank you very much. House Speaker Nancy Pelosi said joe biden should not debate President Trump. Now the Biden Campaign is responding to that. The power panel, and the backandforth. upbeat music [narrator] this is kate. She always wanted her smile to shine. Now, she uses a capful of therabreath healthy smile oral rinse to give her the healthy, sparkly smile she always wanted. crowd cheering therabreath, its a better mouthwash. At walmart, target and other fine stores. I dont think that there should be any debate. I do not think that the president of the United States has contorted himself in a way that anyone has any association with truth, evidence, data, and facts. I would legitimize a conversation with him. Harris nancy pelosi saying joe biden should not debate President Trump, arguing the president will act in a way that scores beneath the dignity of the presidency. Biden responded in the last hour this way. The debates will take place, recommended to me by a number of very competent people that know their way around, including republicans, that i shouldnt debate trump unless there is a fact trackefactchecker. Look i think Everybody Knows this man as a somewhat pathological tendency not to tell the truth. Harris the power panel is back now. To debate or not to . Absolutely. Weve seen many videos of him saying the wrong thing, this individual, hes not a person that would do well in a debate. Notice one, theyre not mentioning mike pence and kamala harris, theyre mentioning joe biden because they know he would lose this thing and losing the election. Harris jessica, debate or not . Obviously debate. Nancy pelosis comment, she had of what i think she thought a cutesy moment, none of you out there, dont tell joe biden that im saying this when she standing in front of the press corps. It was undoubtably an unhelpful comment, especially since joe bidens team and democrats have been working overdrive to quell the assumption that he was not going to turn up for debates that he committed to. Saying that we are worried about joe biden going off script and saying god knows what, that is a problem President Trump has and if you look at his performance during the primary debates, and last week at the convention where he got high marks from both democrats and republicans for the speech he game on the closing night when he accepted the nomination. That isnt the concern here whatsoever. Harris that was on tape. Deletthe debates wont be on tad he wont be able to read anything, notes. Meanwhile i say that for everybody. The president s going after joe bidens Mental Fitness again, saying he will request they both be drug tested before the first debate next month. Tellingly wash washington examiner, i dont know how biden could have been so incompetent and that all the sudden be okay against bernie. If you go back and watch some of those debates, he was so mad. He wasnt even coherent. Against bernie, he was, and were calling for a drug test. The Biden Campaign responded, joe biden can speak honestly without a shot of truth serum. We would like to see trump do the same. Jessica . I have no idea what kind of drugs donald trump thinks joe biden took to have a good does debate against bernie sanders, and there were huge swaths of the population that thought of joe biden had won previous debates when there were ten candidates standing up there on stage, i dont know if he would try the same thing with hillary, saying i want a drug test. This is a man who went on television with Chris Wallace and bright about the fact that he passed a test where he had to identify and elephants. Nothing he says should be taken seriously. Harris before we run out of time. What is this about drug testing . I dont know. Political theater and entertainment from President Trump and that is what he does. He cites out his opponents. Certainly the fact that his campaign responded to this says that they may be concerned that other people can believe it. This is an interesting time in america and everyone is looking forward to seeing these debates as i am, as i know the rest of you all are. Harris except for nancy pelosi. She apparently doesnt want to see a debate. The rest of us. Its like being inside of a video game. We are finally going to see both man without prompters, just the way they are. I think the American People probably want to see that. And they should. Speed too good to see you both. Thank you. I am harris, here the Daily Briefing. Dana president from taking the stage at the rnc, but his opponents just unleash one of his biggest attacks yet. I am dana perino and to this is the Daily Briefing come alive from washington. Joe biden moments ago tearing into President Trump over violence in america and much more. That is after mike pence said americans would not be safe and Joe Bidens America. The problem we have right now is we are in Donald Trumps america. To quote kelly conway, she said and im paraphrasing, theyre looking for more violence and disruption because it helps them politicize. What bothers
