course the pernicious part. when you ask somebody do you think you should have a to show an i.d. to vote? yeah, that sounds good. but you're not discussing what it takes to get that i.d. and who has them and who doesn't, and why they don't have them. that is where the truth lies. >> i try to explain that to people all the time wh. what is accepted as i.d. i'm glad he said that. if you have license to carry, that card, you can do it, but if you're a student, your i.d. doesn't work or you know, an ebt card. >> public assistance. i wonder who has public assistance cards. >> you know who has public assistance cards, poor people. >> white and black. >> and i think you have to look as you said into the intent, and you have to do your research. people say that all the time. why shouldn't you have to show an i.d. do the research and figure out what kinds of people historically don't have i.d.s or who tend not to have i.d.s as to the rest of the population, and so you got to lack at all of those things and not just at the surface as you said. ask a question or you know, summary question like oh, my gosh, yeah, of course everyone's going to say yes until you actually get down to the nitty-gritty and they know exactly what they're doing. is it racist? it is racist. >> when you know that that's what you're up against that they are willing to do anything to get power back and you're going to fight with each other? >> mm-hmm. >> and now look, i know people on the left will say, oh, stop, stop saig the democrats are fighting with each other. no, they're not, it's just joe man manchin. that's not true. biden met with a whole bunch of house members today. you just had a house member say i half the progressives won't vote for the infrastructure bill on monday if it's not with the reconciliation bill. they have real problems. they've got to get it straight or they'll lose. >> i agree with you on the larger part again as we said. when you dig deeper into it, the progressives agenda, not all of it is bad. >> i'm not saying any of it is bad, i'm saying they're not going to get both bills. >> i think what progressives are saying, i'm not a politician here, i think what they're saying is enough is enough. we've been asking for these things. we've been asking for -- to get the voting laws, to fibsx the voting laws, to get those on the books. we've been asking to help kids, to help families. >> biden has been asking for it. that 3.5 trillion is his number. >> we keep compromising and we keep compromising. the whole idea of politics is about a compromise. >> 50% of something is better than. >> than zero, but i think at this point they've got to put up a strong fight and a strong resistance and say, hey, look, this is what we want. i think at the end of the day, there will be some relenting, a lot of relenting from all parties involved. i think at this point even the progressives have to hold firm to get as much of had what they want as possible, and it's the same thing with those who are more conservative in the democratic party. they have to do it and with the republicans. everybody has to say, okay, at this point this is what i want, and i'm not going to back down. and you know, when it gets to that point, to the finish line, the closer they get, i think that a lot of people will be compromising. that's what i think. >> first of all, we should want that, period. >> yes. >> because deals are progress. and then the nature of the deal would become the basis of the next election. but we should have deals because inaction is death. >> yeah. well, we need a lot of stuff. i have got to -- >> well said, d. lemon, that's why i love you. >> thank you, you more. i'll talk to you soon. this is "don lemon tonight" and, okay, so this is a question for you right off the bat here. is joe biden going to pull it off? is he? is he? can he get his warring party singing from the same page of the hymn book to push his agenda across the finish line? can he? there may never be a better time because democrats right now have the house. they have the senate. they have the white house. now after everything this country has been through, everything we endured for the past four years, this is their chance to get their act together. this is their chance to hammer out a deal with a key vote on infrastructure just days away. president biden in meeting day with democratic leaders, conservative democrats and progressives. the message here don't take my agenda. joe manchin says the president told them please just work on it. give me a number and tell me what you can live with and what you can't. bernie sanders says, quote, this is a slow and tor cuturous proc when you have 50 people and no votes to spare and going on to say he thinks at the end of the day they're going to work it out. that with a battle rages over what should be a slam dunk. that is the vote to raise the debt ceiling. it should be a slam dunk. it should be a moment of bipartisan unity. the treasury secretary is warning of economic catastrophe and anxious democrats are floating a plan b. raise the debt limit themselves on a party line vote. that is happening as mitch mcconnell's putting his hypocrisy on full display. mitch mcconnell is refusing to vote for something that he's voted for 32 times in the past. that's according to "the washington post." >> i think the debt ceiling legislation is a time that wrings us all together. >> in the case of the debt limit, we need to act quickly given the new uncertainty from the large costs of storm recovery. >> secretary of the treasury, senator schumer and i had a good meeting this morning in my office to discuss the raising of the debt ceiling, which we all know will need to be done sometime in the next month or so, and we're going to be looking for a way forward to do that together to make sure america continues to never, ever default. >> a time we got serious on a bipartisan basis to try to work this out and not have the kind of chaos that goes along with our inability to come together on these kind of important issues. you may or may not recall i said that during the years when i was the leading of the minority in the senate. i don't think there's any chance we'll allow the country to default. >> basically the same people every time, did you notice that? gee, what happened to all those calls for bipartisanship? what happened to not allowing the country to default? that was then. this is now. >> the debt ceiling will be raised as it always should be, but it will be raised by the democrats. >> there's always the videotape. so big picture here, what does all this say about the president's agenda really? he ran on bipartisanship but he is running into strong headwinds from his own party. the fact is that joe biden has brought things back before. he has, but if democrats can't get together and sort all this out, how are they going to deal with all the other challenges we face? what does it say about the other things that he wants to get done? as i just discussed with chris, what about voting rights? remember the president told me this in our cnn town hall, this was over the summer. >> this is important for people who look like me, my grandmother would sit around when i was a kid, fifth grade, had a fifth grade education. i learned that she couldn't read when i was doing my homework. she would tell me stories about people asking her to count the number of jelly beans in the jar or the soap. so why is protecting the filibuster, is that more important than protecting voting rights? especially for people who fought and died for that? >> no. [ applause ] >> it's not. i want to see the united states congress, the united states senate pass s 1 and s 4, the john lewis get it on my desk so i can sign it. >> and we are still waiting. that as there's news on covid boosters tonight, the fda granting emergency use authorization for a pfizer booster dose in people 65 and older and those at high risk. a rare bit of good news as the pandemic of the unvaccinated is raging in hot spots across the country. deaths from covid have exploded over the past few months. 60 days ago pay attention to this, we were losing 272 americans each day. right around the time that texas governor greg abbott refused to impose a mask mandate. >> it would be inappropriate to require people who already have immu immunity to wear a mask and also, what we know, chris, is this, and that is everyone watching this show, everyone in the state of texas as well as the united states, they know exactly what the standards are, what practices they want to adopt to help protect themselves. >> 40 days ago we were up to 535 deaths per day, and this kind of thing was happening at school board meetings. >> your children and your children's children will be subjugated, they will be asked how many vaccines have you had? have you been a good little nazi? hail fauci. >> 30 days ago 1,000 deaths per day, and this was the line for monoclonal antibody treatments in tam pennspa. ten days ago 1,655 deaths per day, right around the time that the president announced new vaccine mandates for workers at companies with 100 or more employees, and florida governor ron desantis said this. >> you should not lose your job just because joe biden is having this hissy fit. >> actually, you should not lose your life because irresponsible people are playing politics. and now we are at 2,031 deaths every day, so we've gone from 60 days ago 272 american deaths, 40 days ago 535 deaths per day, 30 days ago 1,000 deaths per day. ten days ago, 1,655, and now we're at 2,031 deaths per day. horrifying. in the space of 60 days we've gone from some 200 deaths a day to over 2,000. a university of washington model forecasts nearly 100,000 more americans will die before the end of the year, and in the face of all of that, all of those completely unnecessary deaths, the vast majority in unvaccinated people, the first national security adviser for the former president of the united states says this. >> somebody sent me a thing this morning where they're talking about putting the vaccine into salad dressing. >> can we -- i want you to hear that. please play that again for me. please. >> somebody sent me a thing this morning where they were talking about putting the vaccine into salad dressing. >> okay. so you heard him. that was michael flynn spreading the ridiculous lie this some unnamed somebody is talking about putting the vaccine in salad dressing, you know, the cousin of a cousin of somewhere friend. it's actually un-american to do that, spreading of conspiracy theories while people are dying, dying because they believe garbage like that. so that brings us to tonight and the latest in the front on the mask wars. palm beach county, florida. >> covid is not about health because more than 99% of us have actually failed to die from this thing. it's being used by global elites and our own government to destroy the united states of america because we're based on individual liberty and god, and that is in the way of the new world order of marxism. >> more and more people are waking up because you can't keep your own lie in check, flip-flops, flip-flops, we are the storm, and we are here already, and when this whole thing crumbles to the ground, we will be here to hold you accountable for your crimes against humanity, and we will have our freedoms once again. >> you treat the parents of these children as domestic terrorists using our men in blue against us. your power hungry dictatorship has gotten out of control. this is no longer about our safety. it is about control. >> this report reads like a nazi germany experiment. >> i mean you saw it. i wonder if people see themselves in these videos and then -- who knows. did someone say dictatorship? did they not live through the last administration? i've said it before, the lies and misinformation killing us, just as surely as the virus. so back to the question that i asked at the top of this broadcast, is joe biden going to pull it off? he says failure is not an option. but can he actually get all of this done? >> the president has always been open to negotiations and discussions and knew that he was not going to be alone able to wave a magic wand and pass a proposal, right?

>> well, it's -- i guess i should say i'm never surprised at politics, but i always seem to be constantly surprised these days. i mean, it happens when people, one, look at the long-term and the long-term gain of the common good in the country, they don't look at it that way and they have some sort of short-term political considerations of this. i actually think in this case the so-called moderates in the house and the senate are making a huge miscalculation in this because the more successful joe biden is, the more apt they're going to be to win their election, so the more they can help joe biden get his programs through, the more it's going to help them. the idea that they're going to somehow undercut joe biden and that's going to help them with voters this their state, it never pans out. they're going to rise and fall at the federal level, at how well joe biden does, what he delivers to the american public and where he stands, and the best way to do that is deliver the package that he's presented that the majority of american people in every poll want. >> okay, so are you speaking directly there to the sinemas and the manchins of the world? because they're going to say, well, that doesn't play in my district. >> i'm speaking to the sinemas and the manchins of the world, and i'm speaking to those house members, whatever there are, seven or eight that have raised objections to this. if they undercut joe biden and joe biden's numbers drop, it makes it hard on every democrat, especially the moderates. the first people to lose in line in an election when joe biden's numbers fall and he doesn't fulfill his promises isn't the progressives. it's the first people to fall are those people in swing states or swing districts and those are the people objecting to this when in reality they're the most vulnerable. >> why don't they know that? >> every single election when you look at that, every time somebody says i can't compromise, i live in a moderate district, i'm ging to go against what the president says, every time they do that, they've lost and every time those people realize that as the president goes so goes the federal office, they've won. look at almost every single election. the ability to distinguish yourself by saying i'm against the president and that's why i'm doing this and the president suffers doesn't happen. so i don't know what example they're looking from. this is a constant thing in washington, i'm somehow going to do this and i'm going to rise and the president will fall and everything's going to be okay. it never happens that way. >> interesting perspective there. we saw the bipartisan deal on policing fall apart today as well. republicans are largely against voting rights. is this just more evidence that democrats need to go at it alone and drop the filibuster? >> well, you know, don, you and i have had this conversation before. bipartisanship, which i'm all for and you're for in any normal circumstance, we're not in a normal circumstance. and bipartisanship only works, only works as a process to an end. in order to have bipartisanship, you have to have trust that the oh people accept truth and trust that they're willing to work in the benefit of all americans, not just a select few. and when you have a situation where the republicans don't believe in truth, don't believe in science, and don't believe in the common good, you have no partner you can deal with, and so when you have no partner as it is in life, you have to go it alone, and in my view, the days of sort of counting on like the republicans to go along with some bipartisan agreement in these kind of things is gone, so go it alone. when you don't have a partner you can trust, you need to walk out the door on your own. >> i want to ask you a yes or no question, but you know, that's dangerous to ask an analyst or a consultant or contributor. >> i'll give you a yes or no answer. >> so if republicans had the same control democrats do right n now, would they have dropped the filibuster to get their agenda passed? would they be more ruthless and be in lock step? >> in a heartbeat. >> okay. that wasn't yes or no. >> how's that? >> that was close enough. >> in a heartbeat. that's three words. only three words. >> go on, why do you believe that? because they've demonstrated, mitch mcconnell and the republicans have demonstrated they'll herd their cats all in a row and do whatever it takes. they believe in doing whatever it takes to win. democrats are still playing by an old set of rules that we're going to somehow keep the norms. republicans have abandoned those. democrats can act ethical and legal, but they need to give up on the old days that they can somehow do this and succeed. they need to absolutely go it alone when the american public wants action on all of these, especially voting rights. >> the norms are gone. you're absolutely right. >> the norms are gone. >> look at the example of what's happening with the debt ceiling. look how many times senator mcco mcconnell voted to raise the debt ceiling, now he's saying the debt ceiling will be raised but it's the democrats that will be doing it. he's introduced his own bill to fund the government, but not to raise it. he's also blasting biden's handling of the border hechlt cer. he certainly doesn't mind turning the screws. >> reflect back on merrick gar garland. they wouldn't allow dermerrick garland so the democrats ended up having two or three supreme court choices, and the democrats in many ways allowed that to happen and didn't fight back in a strong enough way. we've already seen that mccarthy and mcconnell will do anything for power sake and anything to achieve their ends. anything. democrats i'm not saying they'd do anything, but they can play -- they can follow the law and follow ethics and get something done, and the filibuster is not part of the law and is not part of the constitution. >> a source tells cnn that former president george w. bush is going to hold a fund-raising event for liz cheney. it was two weeks ago that president bush made these remarks on the 20th an verse right -- anniversary of 9/11. >> that turns every disagreement into an argument and every argument into a clash of cultures. so much of our politics has become a naked appeal to anger, fear, and resentment. that leaves us worried about our nation and our future together. >> look, as you very well know he has made an effort to stay out of politics and really to stay out of criticizing, you know, former presidents or even the current president. he is very publicly putting himself in the opposition to former president trump. why is he more forcefully coming out now? and by the way, former president trump is trashing him tonight in one of his pathetic statements, which i won't read. >> so, again, as you know full well, i had a major break in the front page of the "new york times" with president bush over the war and many other things. i had a major break, but i think he's trade to play by the old rules, which is george bush has said i leave office, i'm not going to comment on this, but i think my impression and having talked to people around him, people close to him, he's tired of this. he's tired of how it's conducted. he was very upset after january 6th. he's watched the republican party that he knew and was a part of and his father was a part of basically disappear. so i think he's beginning to sort of full-inally engage in t. the other part about that is he didn't mention donald trump, and he didn't mention the republicans but all of them took offense at it. all of them thought he was talking about them, which is so telling about what they think about themselves. when he mentioned all these awful things going on, they all took it personally. >> how do we say in the south, a hit dog will holler. >> the hit dog hollers the loudest. >> there you go. thank you, matthew doud, i appreciate it. >> take care, don. so where is gabby petito's fiance? underwater divers involved in a search for brian laundrie. the latest on the investigation into gabby petito's death. that's next. tonight... i'll be eating a buffalo chicken panini with extra hot sauce. tonight... i'll be eating salmon sushi with a japanese jiggly cheesecake. jolly good fire nas... yeah? spare a pound? what? you know, bones, shillings, lolly? lolly? bangers and mash? i'm... i'm sorry? i don't have any money. you don't look broke... my rocket is skint! it's an important time to save. with priceline, you can get up to 60% off amazing hotels. and when you get a big deal... you feel like a big deal. ♪ priceline. every trip is a big deal. a police dive team now part of the search for brian laundrie at a giant swampy nature preserve in florida. he is the fiance of gabby petito whose remains were discovered in wyoming this weekend. a coroner ruling her death a homicide. laundrie's parents say he has been missing for more than a week. i want to bring in the former fbi assistant director for the criminal investigative decision and cnn law enforcement analyst, charles ramsey, the former washington, d.c., police chief. good evening. chris, let's start with you. today authorities brought in a team of highly trained underwater specialists to search for brian laundrie in that carlton reserve in sarasota, florida. let's put up some video now of the search. this is a search area now, this is rugged swamp with alligators, poisonous snakes. tell me about the challenges in searching a location like this and also for him to be able to live there, but just for searching it. >> yeah, don, physical searches like that in that type of remote area present all kinds of problems. i mean, it's marshy area. it's thick with foliage. it's very hard to get into certain spots so you can't be confident that you've searched every single part of the area. i don't know if you can set up a traditional perimeter around your serarch area because of al the water. but i really don't think they feel he's in the water. this is part of the overall search process. i think they're simply ruling out all possibilities here. >> so laundrie, he's been described as an experienced camper. do you believe he's still out there in that vast expanse of swampland? or do you think that this is just to rule that out? >> i don't think he's an experienced outdoorsman. i think there's a big difference. i was part of the search for eric rudolph, he was an experienced outdoorsman. he hit in the same area, general area for almost five years. i don't think brian laundrie is in that category whatsoever. i don't think he has the means. i don't think he has the sophistication to elude a nationwide manhunt, let alone a manhunt in that area there. >> chief ramsey, a witness told cnn today that she and her boyfriend saw brian and gabby at a restaurant in jackson, wyoming, causing a commotion. petito was in tears, laundrie was visibly angry according to her. this was one of the last sightings of petito before her disappearance. does it give investigators any insight, do you think? >> well, if you looked at social media you would think that they had a storybook romance going on on their cross country trip, but obviously that wasn't the case. we do have video both from the police that responded to a domestic dispute that really showed us a whole different side of things. so it does, it really does change the picture a little bit. we know now that they did have some problems. they did have some issues. it's also alleged that he physically struck her. one witness said that he saw them arguing on the street and so forth. so it does, i mean, every little bit helps in an investigation like this, but right now the focus has to be on trying to locate him, dead or alive. you try everything you can to try to locate him. >> you know, chris and the fbi have repeatedly pleaded with the public to provide information here. internet sleuths have been posting video, alleged sightings of brian, tips on social media. some are helpful and they should be shared with authorities while others, you know, as always, they're completely bogus, does all of this help or hinder the investigation? i would imagine even the bogus things coming in they're willing to sift through those because you never know where the real clue is going to come from. >> yeah, i think you're right, don. they have to balance out, you know, whenever you open it up to the public like this, you're going to get -- you're going to go down rabbit holes. you're going to get extraneous information, you're also going to get that nugget this there somewhere. if you got enough manpower to search through it and corroborate the information that comes in, you know, it is a great force multiplier, and i think the internet is a game changer here. there are quite a few internet sleuths out there that are able to do internet dark web, you know, and pretty broad internet searches that dredge up information that lauw enforcemet may miss. they're right to go after the public in a case like this. i think they're going to get -- they are getting leads and have gotten quite a few good leads out of it. >> here's one speaking of from social media, watch this. >> so i saw brian laundrie parking his van august 26th at sprite creek. so i already reported to the fbi what i had seen, so i -- and i wasn't 100% sure but now that there's dash cam footage of the van where i saw it i'm 100% certain that i did see him parking his van, and he was very kind of awkward and confused and it was just him. there was no gabby, but that's only because as a van lifer, i was checking out their van skpifand i was checking out to see if it was a couple or a solo dude. it was a solo dude as far as i could see unless she was in the back somewhere. when i pulled up he was driving still and hadn't yet pulled over, and i was like hey, what are you going to do? are you going to get over? are you going to let me pass? because it's only one car width of a road. he kind of pulled over like halfway and made me drive out of the road to go around him. i thought it was really weird. the van was there for several days and nights and it did not get booted. the weirdest part about it was there was no indication that there was anybody at the van. usually a small van people have their doors open, they're outside, they have a hammock, something, but we didn't see any signs of actual life at the van. >> that was jessica schulz who spoke to the san francisco chronicle posted that to tiktok and we should note that she has declined to comment to cnn, and the fbi tells us that it won't comment on the report in the chronicle citing privacy. can you just unpack what this means for the time line here? chris? >> yeah, i mean, that -- i will point out they would not have found the body without a tip from the public, so it puts him in the area where her body was found in a very critical time frame in the august 26th, 27th time range. she was last heard from on about the 25th, i believe, so he's alone at the time. it is the van, so it does establish a very good time line for the investigators to work with. >> chief, i have to ask you about this because this case has really riveted the country. lots of coverage, lots of interest, right? social media, everywhere. it is worth a reminder, though, that lots of women and children of color go missing all the time. we don't always hear as much about them. so talk to us about that, and how this really affects law enforcement resources. >> well, i mean, it's true. you have a lot of missing persons, and not all of them get the kind of attention this onedy did. there's no question about that. we can all make our own assumptions tas to why that is. this is one that really caught the attention of people for whatever reason, and as a result of that it's really led to an awful lot of information flowing in, which puts an awful lot of stress on a department because you do have a lot of information. you want the information, don't get me wrong, but then it takes a lot of people to be able to sort through it in a timely fashion and then act upon it. but it's just unfortunate that more attention isn't paid to missing women in particular, but just -- and children, and unfortunately we have like thousands of them that are still open cases and no one knows exactly what happened to them, and they don't get the kind of intense investigative response that you see in this case either. >> chris, you're shaking your head in agreement. why is that? >> yeah, i've been involved in many missing person cases and missing is one thing, but missing with indications of foul play is another, and that's when you start to bear down a little bit more when there are reasonable indications that something is amiss here and that there may be foul play, and when somebody shows up driving another person's van, they're supposed to be together. they wait ten days to report missing, i say that's indications of foul play. >> thank you, gentlemen, i appreciate it. so breaking news on the booster shot tonight, the fda authorizing pfizer's booster shots for some americans. are you one of them? dr. sanjay gupta tells us next. in 2016, i was working at the amazon warehouse when my brother passed away. and a couple of years later, my mother passed away. after taking care of them, i knew that i really wanted to become a nurse. amazon helped me with training and tuition. today, i'm a medical assistant and i'm studying to become a registered nurse. in filipino: you'll always be in my heart. what i've learned from so many years . . . . . . of living with hiv is to enjoy every moment. my name is hugo and i'm on biktarvy. biktarvy is a complete, one-pill, once-a-day treatment . . . . . . used for hiv in certain adults. it's not a cure, but with one small pill, biktarvy fights hiv to help you get to . . . . . . and stay undetectable. that's when the amount of virus is so low, it cannot be measured by a lab test. serious side effects can occur, including kidney problems and kidney failure. rare, life-threatening side effects include a build-up of lactic acid and liver problems. do not take biktarvy if you take dofetilide or rifampin. tell your doctor about all the medicines and supplements you take, if you are pregnant or breastfeeding . . . . . . or if you have kidney or liver problems, including hepatitis. if you have hepatitis b, do not stop taking biktarvy without talking to your doctor. common side effects were diarrhea, nausea, and headache. if you're living with hiv . . . . . . keep loving who you are. and ask your doctor if biktarvy is right for you. breaking news, the fda granting emergency use authorization for a booster dose of pfizer's covid vaccine for the at risk and people 65 and older. the cdc will reconvene tomorrow to decide what to recommend. once they make that adddecision eligible people could start getting boosters right away. let's get the latest from dr. sanjay gupta. thanks for joining. the fda has made its decision. what happens now? >> so the fda authorization typically takes us now to the cdc, which then officially recommends this. so it's two part of the process here. we saw that before with the emergency use authorizations. it's the same sort of thing here. what the fda has said -- and you can take a look at the list -- is people over the age of 65, just like their committee recommended. people who are high risk for severe covid-19, and don, that could be a lot of people. you think about people who have risk factors, you're starting to talk about potentially up to 100 million people there, 45 million people in this country 65 and above, and then this last category, people 18 and older who are at risk of exposure. you know, that's a big group as well. health care workers, for example, teachers and teachers aides, grocery workers. think about people who are front line who are potentially at risk. when you start doing the math on this, don, you're potentially talking about, you know, half the country that might be eligible for boosters. we'll see what the cdc recommends specifically. who are those high risk people, but you get an idea of just how many people this might affect. >> and if the cdc approves, eligible people can get shots right away? >> yeah, i think it would happen very quickly. i mean, we know there's plenty of supply of the vaccine out there, so this is in part, i think, why the white house was talking about this several weeks ago, don, to basically say we're going to be ready for this, and part of that's been happening now, getting these shots in place so that people as they start getting these boosters we'll have them ready. >> so so far in september almost 40% of covid deaths are in people 18 to 65. overall, virtually all covid deaths are now happening with the unvaccinated. this doesn't need to happen, and it really highlights, sanjay, the importance of getting these vaccines. >> yeah, you know, don, as much as we talked about the boosters and that's going to be the news of the day certainly, but the vast majority of the problem right now is, as you point out, the unvaccinated. i mean even in our hospital i was talking to our chief medical office, over 90% of the covid patients that are in the hospital are unvaccinated. it's a really important thing to remember. on one hand, it's a good story in that the vaccines really work. there's not many people who are showing up at the hospitals who are vaccinated with covid. and on the other hand, you know, we're still in this position, we're only about 53, 54% of the country fully vaccinated. we should be much further along by this point. it would make a difference in hospitalizations and all sorts of things. >> i want to ask you this before we go, sanjay. florida's governor ron desantis appointed a new surgeon general who is critical of mask wearing, lockdowns and vaccines. he's also revising some quarantine procedures and now parents are the ones to decide if their asymptomatic children who have been exposed to someone who tested positive for the virus should quarantine or not. should parents be making these decisions? >> i think that's a lot to put on the parents. the thing is that they don't know, so your child has been exposed to someone who is positive for covid, so, i mean, what is a parent supposed to do with that information? right now i can tell you the cdc says even if a kid's vaccinated, depending on their age, they might be vaccinated, they should still get tested within three to five days after that exposure. if they're positive, they should be quarantined. we know, don, we've known for a long time, that people can spread this virus even if to simply say to parents if your child has no symptoms, don't worry about it, it defies what's been significant learning about a news disease over the last year and a half. it's a bad idea. you keep hearing things like this and they're flying in the face of what we know would actually work. >> dr. gupta, thank you, sir. >> you got it, don. any time. they had a statue honoring robert e. lee. virginia now has one honoring emancipation and freedom instead. helen knew exercise could help her diabetes... but she didn't know what was right for her. no. nope. no way. but then helen went from no to know with freestyle libre 14 day, now she knows what activity helps lower her glucose. and can see what works best for her. take the mystery out of your glucose levels, and lower your a1c. now you know. freestyle libre 14 day. now covered by medicare for those who qualify. i've always focused on my career. but when we found out our son had autism, his future became my focus. lavender baths always calmed him. so we turned bath time into a business. and building it with my son has been my dream job. at northwestern mutual, our version of financial planning helps you live your dreams today. find a northwestern mutual advisor at nm.com we're carvana, the company who invented car vending machines and buying a car 100% online. now we've created a brand-new way for you to sell your car. whether it's a year old or a few years old. we wanna buy your car. so go to carvana and enter your license plate answer a few questions. and our techno wizardry calculates your car's value and gives you a real offer in seconds. when you're ready, we'll come to you, pay you on the spot and pick up your car, that's it. so ditch the old way of selling your car, and say hello to the new way at carvana. so take this. tonight, south carolina's supreme court upholding a law which allows the relocation or rededication of memorials. that means the state's heritage act will continue to stop local governments or schools from removing memorials honoring confederate icons and traitors to the u.s. but elsewhere in the former confederacy, old monuments to traitors are coming down. and new ones to heros are going up. earlier this month we showed you the removal of a statue of robert e. lee in richmond, virginia, the same city where a new one was made public today. the newly unveiled monument features two 12-foot tall bronze statues representing a man, woman and infant newly freed from slavery and is dedicated to african-american virginians in the centuries long fight for emancipation and freedom. those historic figures include mary elizabeth bowser, a spy for the union and the confederate white house and dred scott who unsuccessfully sued for his and his family's freedom. so many times we have covered the controversy over confederate memorials around the country. and have questioned why statues for losers, traitors and proponents of slavery still stand. now there's a memorial to those who fought for freedom from slavery and what was once the capital of the confederacy. progress. next -- a make or break moment for the biden administration. democrats at odds putting biden's entire presidency on the line. ♪ thousands of women with metastatic breast cancer are living in the moment and taking ibrance. ibrance with an aromatase inhibitor is for postmenopausal women or for men with hr+, her2- metastatic breast cancer as the first hormonal based therapy. ibrance plus letrozole significantly delayed disease progression versus letrozole. ibrance may cause low white blood cell counts that may lead to serious infections. ibrance may cause severe inflammation of the lungs. both of these can lead to death. tell your doctor if you have new or worsening chest pain, cough, or trouble breathing. before taking ibrance, tell your doctor if you have fever, chills, or other signs of infection, liver or kidney problems, are or plan to become pregnant, or are breastfeeding. for more information about side effects talk to your doctor. ♪ be in your moment. ask your doctor about ibrance. at heinz, every ketchup starts with our same tomatoes. but not every tomato ends in the same kind of heinz ketchup. because a bit of magic unfolds when there's a ketchup for everyone. are you a christian author with a book that you're ready to share with the world?
