Adrian b Adrian Broadus is there. When you seeing any efforts to head it off . I cant believe were still talking about Superspreader Events in august of 20 1. Reporter we are still talking about it. For example, if you need one of these masks, the city here has plenty of free masks to provide to its participants. There are Hand Sanitizing Stations along the stretch of Main Street and the city is also offering free covid tests. They have thousands of those tests and partnered with the state health department. If you feel you need a test they will drop it off to you and you can get those results within minutes. Its a rapid test. Meanwhile, this is the largest Motorcycle Rally in the world and this year an estimated 700,000 people are expected to attend including the States Governor who backs this rally. She is going to participate in a Charity Ride on monday. But people have come to sturgis from all parts of the country. We spoke with some of those riders. Heres what they had to say. Are you concerned about covid at all . No. What was that . Im vaccinated. What . My wife has covid right now. Are you concerned about covid this year, the deltay. No, [ bleep ] no. Why not . No, not where i am, hell no. Did you get the vaccine . Hell no. I aint getting it till they start telling me its not going to make you sterile and kill your ass. I dont trust it when its not even approved yet but reporter you know what, jim, for many riders this is an escape coming here is an escape from their towns, their states that have covid restrictions. We did speak with one couple here in town. They packed their bags and are leaving because it was too much of a risk for them. The big concern among health officials is what will happen when people attending the Rally Step inside the bars. Its those crowded bars and Tattoo Parlors that pose the greatest increased risk for transmission. I also spoke with the rider who said he keeps his mask in his pocket. He didnt come last year because he was afraid and he was real transparent with us and said im a little afraid this year but im making sure i stay outside. We also spoke with a gentleman who works at a local bar in town. His daughter has been asking him to wear the mask at work and he told us, he cant because if he does he fears retaliation at the job and get grief from the people he works with. Adrienne broaddus, stay careful especially when they are not vaccinated and start coughing. Joining us is dr. Rob davidson in michigan, Executive Director of the committee to protect health care. Thanks so much for joining us, doctor. We always enjoy talking to you. As of today 50 of the u. S. Is fully vaccinated against covid but on the Flip Side you see events like that Motorcycle Rally in South Dakota where theres been a lot of vaccine hesitancy. People openly saying, no, they havent been vaccinated. They still dont trust it. How frustrating is that to watch . Well, its extremely frustrating because these folks are getting all of their messaging from their political leaders, you know, the governor of South Dakota, Governor Nome and Governor Ducey and governor desantis particularly are digging their heels in. The governor of arkansas and governor of alabama actually showing concern for the people in their states because they see them getting in the hospital and dying and changing their tune but unfortunately some of these folks are just so dug in on the politics that they think their constituents want, theyre not willing to do what they need to to save lives. Tell us what its like in your Emergency Room. How do the unvaccinated people respond to the news they have covid. Well, you know, i tell you what, i can draw a few examples. I had a person come in and asked if they wanted a vaccine. They said, im afraid of the ingredients. Which ingredients. Maybe i can talk you through it. Any said, well, i dont know whats in it and another flatly refused getting a Test Saying i would tell her she had covid so i would get 100,000 and telling us that they wont take the vaccine because they think were going to give them covid with the vaccine. Just got angry with me and was yelling at me and i had to exit the room and end the conversation because these are the kind of battles were having when were just trying to do what ive been doing for 20 years and my Emergency Room in my opportunity for 20 years is help people. People might think about Breakthrough Cases and think why should i get the vaccine. Help set those folks straight. What is your message to those folks who say that . Yeah, i mean your chance of getting hospitalized if you had the vaccine is 1 in 1 though thousand compared to those who are not vaccinated. You know, your chance of actually getting very sick from covid is so incredibly low when youre vaccinated. Yes, there can be Breakthrough Cases. Honestly we all should have talked more about this at the beginning say, listen, we did, we said 95 effective. That means 5 you might show up with a positive test. You might get a little Cold Symptom for a few days but you wont end up dead. Thats what were trying to prevent and telling unvaccinated folks digging their heels in who dont have regard for themselves or their community who their leaders do not have the regard who their Media Ecosystem the theyre following on Fox News doesnt have concern. They should get this vaccine for selfish reasons, forget everyone he. Its going to save them from dying. Right. And the Cdc Director tells cnn that theyre working on a national strategy for booster shots. Tell us about these booster shots. When you talk to people these days about all this, this subject always comes up, booster shots. Does that mean that the current vaccines need help to be more effective . Thats also common refrains that you hear. Yeah, i dont even know if the Word Booster is the right way to put it. You need a second dose if you had the Johnson Johnson or third dose. Some vaccines you get when youre a kid and youre done. We have Tetanus Boosters every five to ten years in the emergency department. Thats how some vaccines work and dont know until theyre out in the real world and see if people are getting enough Breakthrough Cases and its going to be different for different people. Elderly, folks with immunocompromised status will probably need a third dose faster than me or my teenage kids that are all fully vaccinated. Its waiting for the fda to give us the Green Light, you know, the Drug Companies are ready to go but we cant let them dictate how this goes. They have to, you know, follow all the protocols and the fda will give us the Green Light. Exactly and lets look at this Front Page of yesterdays Usa Today. This is a grim headline. Certainly caught my attention. Im sure it caught yours. We are failing one another. Thats the headline on the Front Page of the Usa Today as an er doctor on the Front Lines of this, do you believe that we are failing one another in this . I do. You know, im grateful that 50 of our population is vaccinated but that means 50 is not and a significant number of adults and older kids that could be vaccinated and, you know, i kind of think the time where were trying to, you know, appeal to their sense of community, their sense of other is probably passed and we just need to keep showing images and telling stories of people who regret not having been vaccinated and tell them were here for you and you should do this to protect yourself, protect your family. You know, honestly trying to get them to protect their neighbor or my family is kind of i think a mute point appealing to their sense of selfishness so they dont die. That is a powerful message, tough pill to swallow. Dr. Rob davidson, thanks so much. Great talking to you as always. We appreciate the straight talk.

Someone once told me, that i should get used to people staring. So i did. Its okay, you can stare. When youre a twotime gold medalist, it comes with the territory. That massive 1 Trillion Infrastructure Bill is inching toward final pass ang. If passed it would be a big deal for president bidens agenda. For more lets go to Lauren Fox up on Capitol Hill. Whats the latest . We can see the senate is debating this right now. Reporter look, its going to pass at some point. The question is how soon and how quickly will senators agree to move this process along . They voted this morning to advance the bill in another procedural vote and expect another one potentially Tomorrow Evening but could be expedited if all 100 senator as grow to move this along. Just a few minutes ago Bill Haggerty from tennessee was on the floor explaining why he continued to block the process saying im on the floor laying out why i refuse to expedite a vote on 24 Infrastructure Bill that adds to the deficit. That, of course, is significant because if there isnt an agreement of all 100 members you have to wait this out. Thats potentially another 60 hours of debate on the u. S. Senates floor. That pushes republicans and democrats into next week for having to pass their budget bill. That is another piece of the democratic agenda they want to finish up before their recess so, jim, a lot of influx on Capitol Hill but haggerty putting his foot down saying this bill spends too much and ill continue standing in the way of letting lawmakers pass it any sooner than the process allows. Jim. All right, Lauren Fox, well watch and know you will as well. Coming up, Tuckers Trip to hun hungary. The Fox News host takes his show On The Road to gush about a Role Model for the west.

This week Fox News Personality Tucker Carlson took a break from spreading his usual propaganda here for a Field Trip to hungary where he spread it there especially fawning over the countrys far right leader prime Minister Victor Orban who calls its ill liberal democracy. Heres some highlights. Some may sound familiar. He likens migrants to rapists and terrorists and say muslims are a threat to European Culture and unilaterally built a Border Fence and Funnels Money to State Supporters and sees control of the media, the elections and courts and on the lgbt front he is a nightmare. Samesex marriage is illegal and transgender issues are banned and gender changes illegal. All appears to be why carlson gushed about him like this. No wonder they dont want to you hear when he says, you dont have to watch your country collapse, you dont have to have leaders who hate the population or divide their own people against Each Other who make the country worse, who open the borders, who Increase Crime who encourage people to live on the sidewalk and do drugs. If theres any lesson of talking to victor, maybe its that. Tucker carlson wants to know what he says, okay, fine, this is from a 2018 speech. Quote, we do not want to be diverse and do want to be mixed. We do not want our own Color Traditions and national culture to be mixed with those of others. No Wonder Tuck Ser a fan. It sounds like it was penned by one of his top writers, a prolific poster on a racist online forum. Here to discuss this Friendship Cnn senior Media Reporter Oliver darcy, Historian And Opinion Columnist Ruth Ben giyat. Ruth, you may have to add a chapter based on this trip that tucker is on right now. As you know, the Soviet Union used to use gullible foreigners to spread propaganda but this seems different. Tucker knows what hes doing. Oh, absolutely. And its so concerning that hes gushing about this autocrat. Its interesting what hes not saying to foxs viewers. Hes not saying orban he rules by decree so formally a kind of dictator. The other thick hes not talking about the vir wtual press freed. Donated assets to a foundation run by orbans allies and you couldnt have a private network like fox that wasnt under Government Control or an ally. So its equally revealing what hes not telling fox viewers. And, oliver, i want to highlight another part. Lets watch. If you care about western Civilization And Democracy and families and the ferocious assault on all three of those leads by the leaders of our global institutions you should know what is happening. In the face of great international pressure they call him all kinds of names, the eu calmed what he was doing was illegal but he did it anyway. He built a wall. We said to a minter standing there hard to believe thats your policy when you come here illegal youre just escorted out politely and he said, quote, were a serious country. How embarrassing to be an american in a conversation like that. Wow. Oliver, it sounds like tucker hates america. Yeah, hes impaling some dangerous reprehensible lunacy to an american audience while abroad. Can you imagine if Michelle Obama had gone abroad and in a foreign country said that during conversations with a foreign leader it was embarrassing to be an american. I mean people like tucker would go nuts and thats what Tucker Carlson is doing. Today during a speech he said it is a lie that america is more free than hungary, which is in itself a lie. What ruth said is what hes not telling his audience about, orban and his government. Hes telling his audience the opposite of the truth. You know, he was talking about Press Freedom Today at his Speech And End said that that is something thats a diminishing luxury in america while in hungary where the authoritarian he has been praising all week has been labeled a Press Freedom predators by reporters without borders. So, you know, while tucker is abroad hes not only not telling his audience the truth about the government, hes actually basically delivering propaganda for this autocrat. Yeah, its almost like a Dictator Travel Channel show hes hosting. Ruth, you describe what were seeing as an electoral autocracy in hungary. Talk about that. What does that mean . If trump had been, i guess if he had been surrounded by more obedient yes men would we be in the same boat. Orban is the kind of Poster Child for this way of being a strong man in the 21st century where you dont suppress elections, you just change Election Laws and manipulate the whole system so the results keep you in power. You also dont crack down 100 on opposition so he doesnt poison people and he also doesnt detain hundreds of thousands of political enemies like erdogan does so hes actually its more subtle and way more dangerous. But Theres Nothing liberal Theres Nothing democrat about his ill liberal democracy. Right, oliver, the state controls almost all of the media in hungary and i think its lost on a lot of people and i think Tucker Carlson likes and thinks should be celebrated. Lets watch. Lets say you lived in a Big American City and decided to loudly and publicly attack Joe Bidens policies. His policies on immigration or Covid Or Transgender athletes. If you kept talking like that you would likely be silenced by Joe Bidensal lies. If you kept it up you might very well have to hire armed bodyguards. Thats common in the u. S. , ask around. But its unknown in hungary. Opposition figures here dont worry that they will be hurt for their opinions. We read something very interesting in the atlantic, oliver, as the atlantic pointes out, the irony of What Tucker is saying, of course is that under orban its impore for a hung gather an equivalent of carlson, watched by millions to exist. Do any of these outlets loudly and public attack orbans policies . My guess is no. No, they do not because theyre controlled by orban so Fox News in hungary is impossible to exist over there right now. And, you know, tucker degrades america and suggests that, again, theres no Press Freedom here which is insane because fox is the highest rated network and, you know, one of the highest rated hosts is carlson. He is the highest rated host and the other is calling the president of the united States President Sippy Cup and basically, you know, attacking him viciously every single night and so, you know, i honestly its frustrating watching this because there are a lot of people who do buy into carlsons poisonous rhetoric and they, you know, have been watching this all week, this infomercial for hungary and, you know, they seem to be warming up to authoritarianism. Im sure some are booking their Plane Tickets now. One more clip because it gets into this realm of just the tucker twilight zone. Lets watch. Oh, but he is a fascist scream people who are happy to imprison nonviolent political protesters in washington. Oh, theres no Press Freedom say people who support the overwhelming censorship in the american media. Hes bad. They havent accused him of Rigging Elections yet. Maybe its too much even for them. Yeah, hes talking about this autocrat as if hes Donald Trump or something. I mean this, is just pure fan fiction, ruth. So, what i want to point out is that this business of trying to say that as orban does, as mussolini did that liberal democracy is a tyranny and only authoritarianism can make us free, it is an old playbook and it continues Today And Part of it, what im really worried about that carlson is hammering home, he keeps talking about the disorder, the chaos, the crime, the filth in america and this is part of the right wing authoritarian playbook where you try you create an appetite for Author Tan Car Law And Order rule by depicting your present ruler, biden, as incompetent, ungovernable and there is chaos and crime and polarization is just the beginning. What you want to incull indicate is a Survivalist Mentality so people will even accept violence as they did after January 6th as a way to save the nation. Thats The Big Picture and quite concerned about that. Its very concerning and i wonder where hes going next. Maybe to moscow to do an infomercial for vladimir putin. I guess well have to wait and see. All right, Oliver Darcy and ruth benghait. I hate to give it air time but its disturbing and i think we have to point it out to our viewers. We appreciate it. Coming up next a key witness in trumps first Impeachment Trial shares his side of the story including the grave concerns for our democracy that led him to come forward. Retired Lieutenant Colonel Alexander vinman is my guest next. It takes a certain kind of person to change the world. My greatgreatgrandmother, my greatgrandfather, greatgreatgrandfather was that kind of person. He looked after his community. She built an empire. He protected this nation.

And many achieved remission that can last. Humira can lower your ability to fight infections. Serious and sometimes fatal infections, including tuberculosis, and cancers, including lymphoma, have happened, as have blood, liver, and nervous system problems, serious allergic reactions, and new or worsening heart failure. Tell your doctor if youve been to areas where certain fungal infections are common and if youve had tb, hepatitis b, are prone to infections, or have flulike symptoms or sores. Dont start humira if you have an infection. Be there for you, and them. Ask your gastroenterologist about humira. With humira, remission is possible. As the newly formed House Select Committee investigates trumps role in the January 6th riot were getting a new account about what led to trumps first impeachment and his book, retired lieutenant couple Alexander Vinman details how then President Trump Pressured ukraine to investigate Joe Biden as part of that infamous quid pro quo. It was that call that led vinman to come forward and testify before congress despite his familys deep concerns. Dad, im sitting here today in the u. S. Capitol talking to our elected professionals talking to Hur Elected Professionals is proof that you made the right decision 40 years ago to leave the Soviet Union and come here to the united states of america in search of a better life for our family. Do not worry. I will be fine for telling the truth. This is america. This is the country ive served and defended that all my brothers have served and here, right matters. So important and Lieutenant Colonel Alexander vinman joins us now. I want to ask about the book in a moment. First in the time since your testimony, we have learned of these other Phone Calls that trump tried to make to rig these Election Results in various state, The Call in georgia with the Secretary Of State there saying can you find me 11,780 vote, The Call with doj officials telling them say the election was corrupt and leave the rest to me. Im sure you saw that in recent days. What was your reaction to all of that based on what you had experienced . You know, i just saw it as a continuing criminal enterprise to corrupt the system. Criminal in whether its technically criminal or not doesnt make a difference. Its clearly wrong, its corrupt and it was something that the president in failing to be held accountable for in the first impeachment believed that he received a signal, a Green Light frankly to move forward and did that throughout the rest of his tenure. You said it on the stand as a witness, so to speak, its the title of your book, here, right matters, given how many republicans refused to call out the big lie, are you still concerned that, you know, right doesnt matter here in washington . In washington sometimes its hard to tell, frankly. I know it matters in america. You could go around anywhere, any corner of America Enly if its not a conversation about politics were still who we largely have been, a country united, shared experiences, shared backgrounds, an unfinished project, still a lot of work to do to create that more perfect union. In d. C. Other the other hand its hard to tell. A lot of selfserving actors who see it in their best interest to propagate lies. Very few of them believe what theyre saying. Id say most of them actually believe this is the way to protect and advance their interests and thats the troubling part. I mean if they were true believers, thats a problem, thats almost a mental Health Issue and we have plenty of that in the united states but these are selfserving actors that want to enrich themselves and gain power and Thats Something we must deal with. And you write about the infamous Phone Call with ukraine in your book. Lets put an excerpt up. The president s tone was detached, unfriendly, his voice was lower and deeper as usual as if he were having a bad morning. He wasnt in the room taking The Call in his residence but that wasnt unusual for him. He was routinely unavailable and certainly not present in the Oval Office until late morning or early afternoon. What was the moment you knew that things were going sideways with this call with ukraine . There was an enormous apprehension going into The Call frankly. It was pulled off the books by John Bolton because he had concerns about this call. But ended up added back on because of machine nation, end runs directly to the Chief Of Staff mick mulvaney. I was apprehensive because of all these factors but as soon as what do you mean by that it was off the book, initially supposed to be private. No, it was initially canceled. Pulled off. It wasnt approved for execution and then some folks that were involved in orchestrating the quid pro quo, the back on the agenda. Exactly right. And at that point was it just immediately as soon as you heard the words that it sounded like a quid pro quo. I knew it was going to be a difficult call because the president sounded very, very reluctant and then all the words coming out his mouth were geared towards applying pressure. Everything ukraine is failing to do. Everything the u. S. Has done for ukraine which is actually a lot but all that gearing towards putting a pressure on selenski. He asked for javelins to defend ukraine. Thats what the president chimed in with id like you to do us a favor, though. And then when you hear the Phone Calls that occurred after the election, trump going out and talking to the Secretary Of State, it must have all sounded like deja vu all over again. It did, but, you know, frankly those stories are worth telling. Those stories about public servants pushing back on corruption is basically what my book is about. I tried trump is a foil. Hes basically a Pivot Point to tell a story about doing the right thing. A very important one, you know, catastrophe for our country but for me it was about telling a story about figuring out how to do the right thing, all the things that came together in my immigrant background, perspective on the World And Understanding of authoritarian resumes the Tucker Carlsons of the world dont care about and see its a way to enrich themselfing. Thats what this is about and we should be paying attention to public servants that held the line, thats physically on January 6th the Police Officers and then the public servants that were behind the scenes refusing to take part in corruption and we should make sure that those are the stories that are being told. Let me ask you, you gave Capitol Police Officer Harry Dunn some Visa Head of his testimony to the House Select Committee investigating the capitol ininsurrection. Lets listen to what he said afterward. You know what hurts more than or just as much as what happened on January 6th, the attacks, the attacks on our credibility and that were lying that and we dont love our country and were fake Police Officers and were not real cops like is there a through line here between the attacks on you, attacks on some of the other people who were attacked during the ukraine impeachment saga, people like marie is there a through line between those folks like yourself and your credibility and what were seeing now, the same officers being attacked for trying to do the right thing . Yeah. On January 6th. Absolutely there is. There is a kinship, a common shared experience. I was talking to one of the s. E. A. L. S that reported on eddie gallagher, another person that ive had a conversation with and make it a point to speak to folks who have similar experiences and he i jokingly said were all part of a club. He said a club that needs a larger inseam because we dont take anything and well push back when a challenge threatens our values and i think, you know, its interesting to hear folks like Tucker Carlson demonize and hate the united states because thats what hes doing. Hes hating the united states. I would just ask the american public to take a look around, walk your streets, does it look anything like the world that Tucker Carlson portrays or that Donald Trump portrays . Yes, i got the fact that newsmax and Fox News are declaring this country is falling apart but walk your streets. Its not like that. We have problems and challenges we can overcome together but we are still the best country in the world and we do that together. I just want to very quickly ask you one last thing going through your book, its just fascinating but the one question i have is would you do this all over again . I know you would do it for your country but would you given everything youve gone through would you do this again . On balance the answer is, yes. Because i want this country to be a place where my daughter could live and thrive and be proud of. On balance, yes, because it was basically a followthrough on the commitment i made by wearing the uniform and by swearing my oath but its been difficult. Everything has been a challenge. Just like it has been for officer dunn, for Mike Fanone and the s. E. A. L. I referred to, its been an extremely difficult challenge constantly being attacked just for doing the right thing. There is no inherent reward for it, and i really hope that we do a better job at recognizing whistleblowers, people that defend this country. All right, well, the book is here, right matters an american story. Alexander, you are an american story. Heres the book, youre holding it up. Appreciate everybody going out and picking it up and reading about it because there is an important Story And Lesson for all of us, colonel vinman, thanks for being with us this afternoon.

For the love of people. For the love of community. For the love of progress. Citi. The u. S. Embassy In Kabul is now warning american citizens in afghanistan to leave the country immediately amid relentless fighting with the taliban. Clarissa ward got exclusive access to a city in afghanistan thats considered the Birth Place of the taliban and now one of the biggest targets as troops withdraw from the country. Heres what she witnessed. Reporter On The Road to kandahars Front Line, there is still civilian traffic. Even as the taliban inches deeper into the city. Afghan commandos have agreed to take us to one of their bases. This used to be a wedding hall, now its the Front Line position. Most of the fighting here happens at night, but taliban snipers are at work 24 hours a day. From snipers . Yes. Reporter the men tell us the taliban are hiding in houses just 50 yards away from us,. And they shoot from peoples homes . Yes. We cannot use the big weapons, the heavy weapons. Reporter up on the roof, the major wants to show us something. So you can actually see the taliban flag just over on the mountaintop there. See the flag . Reporter its been nearly a month since the taliban penetrated afghanistans second largest city. Since then, these men havent had a break. U. S. Air strikes only come in an emergency. The rest of the time its up to them to hold the line. We feel a little bit weak without u. S. Air strikes and Ground Support and equipment, he says. But this is our soil, and we have to defend it. In a villa in the eastern part of the city, Kandahari Lawmaker is hunkered down. In decades of war, he says hes never seen the fighting this bad. Millions of people in this city are waiting for when they will be killed, when someone will kill them, when their home will be destroyed, and it is happening every minute. Just spell out for me here, the taliban is basically surrounding the entire city of kandahar now, is that correct . Definite, yes. And so where is there to go . Nowhere. So there is only two options. Do or die. Do or die . Yes. And what does do look like . That is the thing to convince different sides to ceasefire, to work on peace, to convince them not to fight, not to kill. Reporter but that is a tall order in a city where war has become part of every day life. You can probably see there is a lot more cars On The Road than there were previously, and thats because in just two minutes at 6 00 p. M.
