Card image cap

The pandemic of the unvaccinated surging tonight with cases, hospitalizations, and deaths rising. The v. A. Is now mandating vaccines for Frontline Health workers. And were just hours away from the first hearing of the January 6th select committee. Four Hero Officers who defended the capitol will testify. And listen to this. This is from Michael Flynn, the Trump Ally who riled up a crowd less than 24 hours before the deadly insurrection and even called for Martial Law. Now flynn in a church, no less, is given a Semiautomatic Rifle and jokes about taking it to washington, d. C. This is one of our topquality guns and maybe ill Find Somebody in washington, d. C. [ laughter ] i mean and people laughed and cheered. You know what . Tell that to the brave Police Officers who are testifying tomorrow, those american heroes who risked their lives to defend lawmakers and the Vice President on January 6th. Tell them your funny joke about taking a washington and see if they laugh at it. I want to bring in now cnn white House Correspondent John Harwood and political commentator charlie dent. Charlie dent is a former republican congressman. I appreciate you joining us. I mean whatever. Hi. Were just hours away from the four officers who risked their lives defending the capitol on January 6th testifying under oath for the first time. What else can we expect tomorrow during the select committees first hearing, john . Don, i think were going to see something that we havent seen from hearings of this kind in a while, which is a seriousminded, thoughtful probe because Nancy Pelosi has managed to make a bipartisan committee by picking a couple of honest republicans who are serious about what happened on January 6th in Liz Cheney and Adam Kinzinger. And, you know, were going to see something we didnt see, say, in the trump impeachment hearings. When you looked at what House Republicans did then, they didnt care about getting to the truth. It was all Air Horns and Fog Machines trying to protect Donald Trump. And that is not going to be in that select committee hearing room. The republicans will be displaying their pathologies just like the one that you displayed in that clip of Michael Flynn. Theyre going to be displaying their pathologies outside of the hearing room. Youve got the lunatic wing, gosar, marjorie taylor greene, matt gaetz. Theyre going to be talking about people who have been prosecuted for committing acts of Violence And Lawlessness on January 6th as political prisoners. And then you get the lying wing of the republican party, which is most of the rest of it, trying to somehow blame this on Nancy Pelosi. And you saw Kevin Mccarthy Today labeling Liz Cheney and Adam Kinzinger as pelosi republicans. When youre the leader of the republicans in the house and you say, oh, you see that honest republican over there . Thats a pelosi republican. Youre insulting yourself rather than insulting kinzinger, cheney, or Nancy Pelosi. Very good point. Charlie, congresswoman Liz Cheney expected to give an opening statement tomorrow. You say that pelosi should give Cheney And Kinzinger the time of five members, of the five members, so it looks more bipartisan. Do you think there are enough people out there with open minds, you know, that this hearing is going to make a difference . Well, don, i certainly hope so because what pelosi has done, she has turned this into a bipartisan proceeding. I thought initially that she made a mistake by removing the two, banks and jordan. Then mccarthy made a mistake by removing the other three. But by Appointing Kinzinger in addition to cheney, i think there is an opportunity for the american people to hear from serious, thoughtful republicans. And if i were pelosi, i would defer to them as much as possible because they will make solid, rational arguments about what happened on January 6th. They will try to find facts and get answers to the Big Question. The Big Question being why did thousands of our fellow citizens think it was a good idea to violently assault the u. S. Capitol and disrupt the peaceful transfer of power . So the more time Kinzinger And Cheney are out there speaking, i think that just adds to the credibility of the whole proceeding. Lets hope shes watching or someone is going to tell her about it. Listen, john, when i spoke to actually, i think its not a bad idea. John, when i spoke to the president last week at cnns town hall, he told me the Infrastructure Deal could get done today. Clearly that did not happen, and you say this is about will, not terms. Why is that . This is about whether those 11 republicans have the stomach to stand up and cut a deal with Joe Biden when they know that much of the republican party wants biden to fail, believes that if they pass this bipartisan Infrastructure Deal, it will lead to the passage of a larger spending deal, the reconciliation deal, 3. 5 trillion that they really dont want. And so, you know, they struck this deal five weeks ago. Theyre haggling over small details. But when you get that close to a deal, its about do you really want to do it . And thats what were testing right now. There have been a variety of twists and turns. Youve got laura ingraham, the fox anchor, saying last week, oh, these are useful idiots for the left. And that stings for a lot of those members, and were going to find out, you know, they said they want this physical Infrastructure Deal. Its very popular with their constituents. Roads, bridges, broadband, all of that. Were going to see whether they have the willingness to stand up to the political heat and do it. They havent done it yet, but they havent walked away either. I got one more question for you, john. President biden also confirming today that the u. S. Is going to end the Combat Mission in iraq by The End of the year. But the White House its not making it out like a missionaccomplished moment. I think we all remember that. Whats going on . Well, this is largely in reaction to iraqi politics because the iraqi government does not want to be seen as close to the united states. Relations were inflamed when the Trump Administration took out general soleimani, the iranian general, and also an iraqi Security Official at the same time in a drone strike. And so the presence of those 2,500 american troops as combat forces in iraq became untenable. The question is are they really leaving . U. S. Officials, when they were Briefing Reporters at The End of last week, wouldnt say how many of the 2,500 are actually going to leave as opposed to being relabeled as advisers rather than combat troops. So this seems to be a significant amount of p. R. , but its fraught because it comes at a time, as you know, don, when President Biden has committed to removing troops from afghanistan. Conditions are getting worse with the taliban making headway. So there are certainly downsides to withdrawal. This is a less stark case, but we of course saw president obama. He pulled out troops in 2011, had to send them back because of the rise of isis. So this is President Biden responding to iraqi politics in a way thats consistent with his own politics. Charlie, i need to talk to you about the pandemic. The unvaccinated putting this whole country at risk. How can the White House convince these people to get vaccinated with so many on the right still pushing dangerous misinformation . I think the most important thing they can do right now is take the unvaccinated people who have come out of the hospital with these neardeath experiences, who have had a conversion, a death bed conversion. Let them speak to the unvaccinated about why its important that we all get vaccinated, you know, to protect not just ourselves but or friends and in this case our unvaccinated friends and family. And keep pounding the Point Home that all these people are in the hospital. Nearly 100 of them are unvaccinated. This is just insane. Take these powerful voices of people who have just come out of the hospital, near death. Let them speak to the unvaccinated. If the unvaccinated dont listen to them, i dont know who theyll listen to. We just had one at the top of the 10 00 hour, a couple. Thank you, gentlemen. I appreciate it. I want to talk more about the surge in the coronavirus cases among the unvaccinated. I appreciate you joining us, tom. Heres the big news today. The v. A. Will now mandate vaccines for its Health Care workers. New York City is now ordering all City Employees to be vaccinated or face weekly testing. California says all State Employees and Health Care workers must get their shot. Is this what the rest of the country should be doing . I think well, im in favor of more vaccination mandates, particularly in settings where you have Health Care settings where people are patientfacing. I think the v. A. Policy was sensibly done. It does offer Due Process. It does take into account as part of that Due Process medical reasons. As you mentioned, a number of other hospital and Health Care systems have done the same. I think its favorable. I think we need to look at other settings like increasing what we see at universities or among federal and State Employees. I do think it will be helpful when the fda finally approves this vaccine for it to occur among more private employers as well. It is july 26th, and the White House still hasnt reached its July 4th goal of getting 70 of americans with at least one shot. Do you think well remain stuck and this turns into another major crisis, or are we already there . Were already there. Im going to be honest with you, don. I think were looking at a hard few weeks or months ahead of us. The dominant strain now, this Delta Variant, is at least twice as infectious as the original strain. Its finding pockets of the undervaccinated. We are seeing substantial increases nationwide. Of course were at more than 50,000 per day. Thats up 50 from last week. But the hot spots are really in these, again, pockets of undervaccinated populations. Florida now has the highest weekly Death Rates among all 50 states. It has under the average of vaccinated individuals. Arkansas and louisiana now have the highest rate per 100,000 of infections. They are in the bottom ten of vaccinated states in this country. As long as these pockets of undervaccinated people exist, were going to see these surges, and im afraid thats what were looking at in the next few weeks. My family is in louisiana. Every day on our family text chain, i send them the story from louisiana because i want them to be safe. Its unbelievable. It seems like were hearing about more vaccinated people contracting the virus although the majority have few symptoms. Does this mean vaccinated people need to bring back some of their old routines like skipping crowds, Masking Up Inside . I think if youre in a setting where you are not certain the populations around you are vaccinated, i think it can be sensible, particularly if you are immunocompromised or an older individual. Its sensible to wear a mask in those settings. In terms of more formal Mask Mandates, i think theyre important tools for preventing infection. We do need to be very careful on how they are applied. They can discourage the unvaccinated from getting vaccinated if they dont see the benefits. My worry is that were no longer producing the data that can help local Public Health officials make these decisions. Florida, as we mentioned before, has onefifth of the covid cases nationally, and theyve stopped reporting their testing data. Theyve stopped breaking down data by county for deaths and infection, and thats really preventing our ability to have Target Applications of these Mask Mandates that we had before to protect populations. We need to have that data for that to occur. Let me just restate what you said and ask you a question at The End because youve been talking about the cases being up across the map. But in florida and arkansas, every single county is now listed as having high levels of Community Transmission. Thats according to cdc data. Now, some florida hospitals are reporting more covid patients now than at any other point during the pandemic. How risky is it right now to be in or travel to these states, tom, particularly if youre unvaccinated or have unvaccinated people in your household . Its risky. We really are expecting, you know, the forecasts out to 12 weeks for states like florida or louisiana, arkansas 12 weeks . Out to 12 weeks, yes. Wow. And we need to take this seriously. You know, your guest before had some sensible ideas for promoting vaccination. Anyone watching, if you havent gotten vaccinated yet, its really time to be more serious about moving forward with that decision. Tom, bollyky, thank you. My pleasure. As i mentioned, more cities are reinstating Mask Mandates for everyone whether youre vaccinated or not. Savannah, georgia, made that change just today. Joining me now is savannahs mayor, van johnson. Thank you. I appreciate it. This is an important conversation were going to have. Absolutely. Thank you. Youre requiring masks in all Government Facilities as well as Savannah City schools and early childhood centers. Was this a tough choice for you . It was a tough choice, but it was a necessary choice. Don, our Community Transmission index has tripled. On july the 12th, we were at 84. Today were at 289. Our percentage of positive tests have gone up from 5. 7 on July The 2nd to 12. 2 on july 23rd. Our seven Day Rolling Average has increased from 8. 3 on June 8th to 80 now. Our Vaccination Rates are still very low, 42 . We have 40 folks in our hospitals here where a couple of weeks ago we had no one. So obviously we have to do something. Yeah. Weve seen how controversial Mask Mandates have become. The thing is, is that, you know, Police Officers or people say, how do you enforce that . My thing is how do you plan to enforce this because to say you have a mandate and then dont do anything about it really means nothing. Absolutely. But in every way we can. Its unfortunate that the minority has to suffer because of the inactions of the majority. There are some people and certainly savannah is known for its tourism. We have been exploding lately from people visiting our beautiful city. But if we have a mask mandate, we believe that a lot of people will follow it because we have a mask mandate. Other people will do it because they recognize its necessary. And then for those who choose not to comply, then obviously we have to have penalties that associate with that. This mandate, it does not apply to private businesses or institutions, but youre strongly encouraging owners to require everyone to mask up. Have you got any pushback from local businesses or citizens . Well, you get some. I mean the fact is this is not a political issue. It should not be a political issue. This is an issue of Public Health and public safety. Today i had some of savannahs finest medical and epidemiologists with me talking about the necessity of this moment, that we are quickly spiking up. And if we dont want to go back to where we were, times when our businesses were closed and we were socially distanced and we could not be around each other, then its necessary for us to do the necessary thing, although uncomfortable and although maybe inconvenient, to simply wear a mask and get vaccinated. We have prayed for this wave to get past us, and we have been blessed with a way to get past it named pfizer, moderna, and johnson johnson, and folks need to take advantage of that opportunity. And your name is van johnson, no relation. Listen, mayor, just to restate some of the numbers again because you gave us a lot of stats. But cases are spiking in your state, likely because the Vaccination Rate is just under 40 . You mentioned that earlier. Do you feel anything more can be done to talk unvaccinated georgians into getting their shots . Well, i think it has to come from the top obviously. We have to make it a priority. Southern states have not done as well. Savannah is at 41 with both shots. Whats going on with yall . We have to prioritize the right thing. We have to prioritize the Health And Safety of our folks. As far as im concerned, if i have to knock on every door and personally ask them to get the vaccine, im willing to do it. We cannot we will not allow covid to win here in savannah, georgia. Listen, the thing is too, you know, obviously we want everyone to be healthy and safe. But you said your economy was just starting to recover. People are coming. Theyre visiting, and now you have to revert back to the maskwearing, and well see what happens with your businesses. But you want to get things back open, get the shot. Mayor. Simple. Simple as that. Thank you, sir. Keep us updated. We wish you luck. Thank you, sir.

Sit down and watch this because you may i never thought i would be in this position to maybe somehow have to defend Tucker Carlson, but well see where this goes. I have mixed emotions about this one. Fox propaganda Host Tucker Carlson confronted in a Montana Fishing Shop, called the worst Human Being known to man. The man posting his confrontation with the tv host. Watch what happened. You are the worst Human Being known to man. Okay. So Fox News reacting in a statement saying ambushing Tucker Carlson while he is in a store with his family is totally inexcusable. No Public Figure should be accosted regardless of their political persuasion or beliefs simply due to the intolerance of another point of view. The store where it happened is called Dan Baileys outdoor company. It issued a public statement saying even though they have the same name, they share no affiliation with Dan Bailey in the video. Again, it was just a coincidence that its the same name and that they treat every customer equally and respectfully. Lets discuss now. Let me tell you this. I dont like it. I dont like it when people do that because i would not want it to happen to me. But i have mixed emotions because tucker has done this to people before. Tucker said some really nasty and silly things about me, and the next day there are paparazzi in front of my house, hiding, taking pictures. So i dont want it to happen to anyone. I dont want it to happen to tucker. But when you do things like that, i dont know. Im just saying thats the real deal. Thats how i feel about it. Ana, listen, all of us, were all On Tv. Weve been approached. We hear good things. We hear bad things from people. We dont even know who they are. Its part of the gig. Dont you think this went a little too far, though . Um, you know, i actually thought the guy who confronted him was quite polite, was not shouting, was not violent, was not aggressive in any way. He expressed his opinion in the same way that Tucker Carlson expresses his opinion on a nightly basis on a much larger platform. Listen, don, ive seen videos like this about Chris Cuomo when his kids are in tow. This has happened to me. It happened to me at a fresh market in Coconut Grove in miami. There was this lady stalking me. I thought she wanted a selfie. No. She wanted to insult me for not loving trump. I dont think that should happen to you. I dont think it should happen to chris or me or scott. Don, i also dont think there should be hurricanes or there should be covid. But crap happens, okay . We get well remunerated for giving our opinion, and that comes with good, and that comes with bad. So put on your Big Boy pants or your big girl pants and get on with life. And, look, when it comes to tucker kafrcarlson, its not ju about infrastructure or immigration or you name it. Its about covid, and its about life and death. And i think people are very raw and emotional and angry about that in particular. So i think that with the platform we all have scott, you, all of us, tucker comes the benefit of some people liking what we say and some people not liking what we say. And in the same way i have a first Amendment Right, they have a first Amendment Right. Deal with it. Yeah, but your first Amendment Right doesnt mean invading my personal space. Im sorry, ana. I understand what youre saying, and i get it. I think that What Tucker says much of the time is completely reprehensible and divorced from reality. But he has a right to be in a space and not be accosted and not be ambushed by anyone. You can yell at people yell all the time at me. I was in cincinnati. There were trump supporters out there yelling across whatever. They werent in my face. So if you want to stand across the street and do it, fine. There was one person who made contact there. It was Tucker Carlson with a guy. Yeah. The guy never touched Tucker Carlson. The guy never got close to Tucker Carlson. I hear you. He gave Tucker Carlson his opinion about what he said, and it is what we have to deal with for giving our opinion. I hear you. Every night. Tucker has told people if you see someone that makes a Kid Wear and mask, you should call the cops for abuse. I guess it. Okay. Scott you know, if youre going to dish it, you should be able to talk it. Scott, whats your take on this . I agree it was an ambush. I thought tucker handled it fine. Hes been approached before, and he usually finds a way to defuse it and laugh it off. I thought the guy actually looked pretty aggressive. He got right in his face. He was right up chest to chest with him. He looked like he was trying to move with tucker as tucker was trying to get away. I have the similar reaction to you, don. I dont want it to happen to Tucker Carlson because i dont want it to happen to you. Lets be honest. You by the president of the united states have been personally singled out. People at cnn have been personally singled out. You know theres a whole group of folks out there who would love to get in the face or worse of someone here and theres a whole group of folks out there who would love to get in the face or worse of someone at Fox News or msnbc or anywhere else. So i was really uncomfortable with this and candidly, i think to even try to rationalize it, to laugh it off or to say, hey, put on your Big Boy pants, to me, is to condone it. If you want to condone a confrontation like this, i think youre inviting the next one. The next one may not have the same physical rerestraint. Don, youve met people out there who im sure look like they would love to commit violence. I think when you encourage these kinds of confrontations or condone it, you know, the next one may not be so friendly, and people may lay hands on each other. That makes me extremely uncomfortable. I dont mind this guys views. Hes welcome to have them. But in a space like that that tuckers daughter was there in a small store, it made me uncomfortable. My response is always, thank you. Thank you for watching. Thank you so much. I appreciate it. Thank you, thank you, even if they say the worst things about me because really i just want to defuse it and i want them to go away. Listen, again, i know people have the right. Im On Tv. I give my point of view, and i say my take all the time. So i understand its going to happen. But do i like it . No. Ana, go on. Respond. What do you want to say . I mean theres a lot of things in life i dont like, don, but that happen and that come with the territory. Im not condoning it. Im not encouraging it. Im saying that in the same way that Tucker Carlson spews out hatred every Night And Racism every night and anticovid rhetoric every night, which has put lives at risk, this guy in this fish store, whatever the hell it was, has a right to his opinion. And so i cant say ones right is greater than the other. And, again, i have actually seen video of this exact same thing happen to Chris Cuomo while one of his daughters was in tow. And is it uncomfortable . Is it awkward . Is it unpleasant . Is it horrible . All of those things, yes. But when we take on the job of going On Tv and spewing our opinions, we should know that that comes with a consequence of other people approaching us and spewing their opinions. And as long as there is no violence and this man was not violent. As long as there is no violence, i think they have exactly their opinion the right to their opinion. Ana, theres a difference between saying your opinion theres a difference between hang on. Ana, theres a difference between saying your opinion i think Tucker Carlson is one of the worst people known to man and women. So i think he was a little a little less than what i would have said. Listen, im not saying what the guy said was right or wrong. Theres a difference between stating your opinion and standing and intimidating someone and blocking them. People stop me all the time and give me their opinions, and sometimes i dont like it. But you know when someone is being aggressive. You know when they are in your personal space. Of course that comes with the territory. I was in the whole foods the other day. This guy says, look, i watch you all the time. I dont agree with you. Let me tell you what i dont agree with you about. We stood there and had a conversation. That is not what happened in that video. And, look, i know it comes with the territory, but you know the difference between someone being aggressive and blocking you from walking or moving or not letting you get your point across. There is a difference in someone respectfully saying, i dont agree with you and let me tell you why, do you have a second . But i dont think that we should be encouraging this. It shouldnt happen to chris. Who the hell is encouraging it, don . It shouldnt happen to Tucker Carlson as well. Okay. Where was Tucker Carlson when Donald Trump was saying you are the enemy of the people. Who the hell is encouraging this . But they encouraged trump saying the media and the press was the enemy of the people and shouting horrible things about cnn and other outlets. And we called them out for that. But you dont want to become them. You dont want to become them. You dont want to become that. No, i dont. Yeah. But i also dont want to forgive them or forget the Stuff Theyve done for four years. And i also want to acknowledge why people are angry. Listen, theyve been spewing out crap about covid and antifauci stuff and antivaccine stuff, and people are dying. That doesnt mean that you have to intimidate people in public. That doesnt mean you have to get in peoples face in public. Okay. Then dont watch Tucker Carlson. Dont watch him. Her signal broke up. Don i got to run, guys. Thank you, scott. Its a rare night, don, when you get to speak for me. This is amazing. Listen, i need to say this. We tried to reach Dan Bailey to come on and comment, but we didnt hear back from him. It doesnt mean i agree or disagree with anything he said, but no one should have that treatment in public, even Tucker Carlson. Well be right back. Not touching is still touching protection.

S. , trumps disgraced former national Security Adviser sparking more outrage. Michael flynn joking about using a Semiautomatic Rifle against somebody in washington, d. C. The comments have been viewed over A Million times and theyre just the latest inflammatory chapter in flynns history. Cnns Alex Marquardt has more on the story. Thats awesome. Reporter it was in a church that the latest disturbing turn in the Michael Flynn story came. We were trying to come up with a rifle that we thought was appropriate for a general. So we went with an oldschool woodland camouflage. Reporter in yuba city, california, after flynn was gifted a Semiautomatic Rifle, he said this. Maybe ill Find Somebody in washington, d. C. [ laughter ] reporter laughs onstage and in the crowd in this clip of the event that surfaced as the retired general jokes about using the gun against someone in the nations capital. That same capital earlier this year saw the violent insurrection by supporters of Donald Trump, whom flynn spoke to the night before the riots, spouting lies about a stolen election. And the entire world knows. Everybody in this country knows who won the election on the 3rd. Who won the election on the 3rd . Donald trump. Reporter Flynn Riling up the crowd less than 24 hours before the assault on the capitol building. Tomorrow, We The People are going to be here and we want you to know we will not stand for a lie. Reporter flynn was trumps first national Security Adviser and pleaded guilty for lying to the fbi before being pardoned by trump. Weeks before January 6th, he called for Martial Law to use the military to overturn legitimate election results. He could order the within the swing states, if he wanted to, he could take military capabilities and he could place them in those states and basically rerun an election in each of those states. Reporter he has embraced the Selling Qanon Merchandise and taping himself with a Group Reciting the movements catch phrase. Where we go one, we go all. Reporter a few months ago, he attended a Qanon Conference and said there was no reason a military Coup Couldnt happen in the u. S. Like the violent and deadly one unfolding in myanmar. I want to know why what happened in Minnamar Cant happen here. No reason. I mean it should happen. Reporter a furious backlash followed and flynn claimed he wasnt calling for a coup. Michael Flynn Reporter but it was clear he believed the big lie. Trump won. [ cheers and applause ] he won. Where retried to reach flynn about these latest troubling comments but we were unable to. After what he had said about the Myanmarstyle Coup happening here in the united states, the pentagon said they would not be investigating him, but they are reviewing whether he had approval for money hes received after retiring from turkish and russian entities with ties to those governments. If not, financial penalties could be imposed. Remember, this is a guy who as a retired Threestar General is still getting taxpayerfunded retirement benefits. Don. Thank you so much.

Longtime ally of former President Trump and chairman of the trump 2016 inaugural Tom Barrack Pleading not guilty to illegal foreign lobbying charges. Barrack putting up a massive 250 Million Bail Package. Heres cnns analyst jennifer rodgers. Jennifer, good evening to you. Thank you for joining us. Tom barrack entered a plea of not guilty. He says that he is 100 innocent. How strong is the case against him . It looks pretty strong, don, reviewing the indictment, and its not just the fara violations. When authorities uncovered this case, they spoke to Tom Barrack and he lied to them. So we have Obstruction Of Justice too. It looks kwquite solid. He is out on a 250 Million bail. Prosecutors are calling hmm a flight risk. He can only fly commercial to approved locations. Were you surprised by that 250 Million Price Tag . I have never heard of a Bail Package that high, so i was. On the other hand, you have to have a very high package, something that will keep him in place and make him not want to flee the country. So apparently thats what they agreed upon and, you know, he put it up. So wile see. Presumably hell come back to court with this kind of package in the system. Sources are telling cnn that there is no indication that hes going to cooperate. But if he wanted to cut some sort of a deal, what do you think that would look like . Thats a good question. So the district thats charged him, the brooklyn u. S. Attorneys office, has the inaugural committee investigation. So certainly he could cooperate in that investigation. He could cooperate in his own case against one or both of the other codefendants. The question is what else does he know . Theres no indication that he could cooperate, for example, in other potential criminal matters involving President Trump. But, you know, who knows . Certainly prosecutors know a lot more about that. If he comes in, it could get interesting. Thank you so much. I appreciate your time. Thanks, don. So a Big Day tomorrow.
