with less than two months to go until election day. good morning, happy labor day, sandra smith is off, happy to see you. >> happy to work with you for the first time. president trump and joe biden are turning their focus to pennsylvania this week where the real clear politics average shows him leading by four points. the former vice president will travel to harrisburg and the two sides not holding back as we enter the final stretch of the 2020 race. >> every time i see biden speak he says delaware, delaware, he never leaves. i'm all over the country. and then when i watched before getting asked questions that are really meant for a child to answer, anybody could answer, and i look at the level of questions that you people ask. honestly it's disgraceful. >> donald trump is not fit to be the commander-in-chief. the american people need to understand. all pain and suffering stems from president trump's failure to lead. >> blake: that is just a table setter, meantime vice president pence and senator harris are set to campaign and wisconsin. that is where we find peter doocy this morning. what is on the schedule there today? >> later today, let harris is going to tour at electrical workers training facility and then she will host an economic roundtable. the reason this is her first day out on the campaign trail by herself since being named to the ticket is of course covid-19. to that point, she is also saying that if there is a vaccine before election day she might not take it. >> let's just say there is a vaccine that is approved and even distributed before the election, would you get it? >> i think that's going to be an issue for all of us. i will say that i would not trust donald trump and it would have to be a credible source of information that talks about the efficacy and the reliability of whatever he's talking about. >> trump won wisconsin and 25 i, 5% are undecided. she will campaign and milwaukee where the party canceled their convention less than a month ago and mike pence will be on the border where the campaign is trying to turn red. minnesota, joe biden is going to be an pennsylvania hoping to hold the lead in there, but these are places the trump campaign and says they're doing better than it looks. >> you know we always discount public polling because they oversample democrats and under sample republicans. our internals for a long time and eve are today show that in the 17 battleground states, the president is very strong either tied or ahead of joe biden. >> the center of attention as wisconsin and a real challenge for kamala harris and mike pence is going to be breaking through the local story in wisconsin today, and that is the milwaukee bucks being one game away from the eastern conference finals. >> beat my miami heat in overtime last night. peter doocy. thank you. >> let's bring in byron york, chief political correspondent for the "washington examiner" at a fox news contributor. always great to have your expertise. let's talk about the trump campaign and then we will move on to biden. do you believe the trump campaign has done enough to resecure pennsylvania? >> they will do a lot more. the president was in pennsylvania a few days ago an end then in late august as well. back in 2016 donald trump's path to victory was fairly simple, he had to win all of mitt romney states and then he had to win florida, ohio, and pennsylvania. he did that and then he threw in michigan and wisconsin for good measure. right now it looks like all of those states are now becoming the same important states again in 2020. >> julie: should the president be out in the campaign trail where workers are obviously looking for the candidate that's going to most support the blue-collar voters, especially today on labor day? >> joe biden is they are today. he has a huge amount of labor union. biden is there. joe biden is a native son and pennsylvania. he was born and some of his early life and scranton. this race is actually close as it's tightening and pennsylvania and other states. over the summer biden had an 8.5 percentage point lead in the real clear politics add, today it's less than half of that, 4.2%. look at florida, is 1.8%. north carolina is a fraction of what it was. a lot of these key states, michigan, wisconsin, pennsylvania, the race has gotten tighter. >> julie: blue-collar voters is where biden does really need to advance. he seems to be flipping a bit in that category. the american federation of labor and industrial organizations, the largest federation in the united states. together it represents 12 million active and retired workers. how important is this meeting for biden to connect with blue-collar voters, specifically these union leaders that say there are thousands of employees and voters and workers that are at risk? >> look, it's a huge part of biden's campaign, not just for the votes, unions and the private sector or nothing with what they were a generation ago or two generations ago when joe biden was starting and politics. on the other hand he does have strong reports. by the way, the unions, police unions which are supporting president trump for obvious reasons. >> julie: you have union leaders, lawmakers, fossil fuels obviously carry a network of jobs, training, trade construction. that is where these voters are headed. they're looking for a leader that's going to protect them. a lot of these leaders say that joe biden's energy platforms threatens the jobs of thousands of blue-collar workers. could his acceptance of the progressive energy and climate policy risk alienate all those workers that he needs to carry pennsylvania in the election? >> absolutely. and the obama-biden administration, a lot of progressive policy people made no secret out of their desire to destroy the coal industry. donald trump's 2016 campaign platform on that was, i'm going to promote you, i want coal to be alive. i wanted to be a real industry in the united states. and that dynamic is still in play today. you have workers who feel that one candidate wants to destroy their way of life and the other wants to preserve it. it's pretty clear which way they're going to go. >> the international union of engineer is worried. they say it's 8,000 members are in jeopardy. they say, "it's going to be difficult to support or endure joe biden with the position he seems to be leaning towards when it comes to energy." that's the business manager quote there. code biden may be be going down the same road as hillary clinton and 2016, which as you remember, many people believe ws a big reason for her loss? >> absolutely. there were two reasons for her losses in and slovenia and michigan, and in wisconsin. one was that she did not connect. she could not connect with the white working-class voters. the other was that she failed to match barack obama's appeal and democratic strongholds and pennsylvania, detroit, and milwaukee. biden will have to do both of those things. he will have to match the obama performance and those places and he will have to draw those white working-class voters who were very attracted to trump. we just saw an article by the way, very liberal magazine, "the nation" and it talks about how president trump talks about jobs all the time and joe biden does not talk about jobs. that's a hughe huge issue. >> julie: appreciate you coming on. blake? >> blake: of the former fbi agent peter strzok is now speaking out, coming to the defense of his former employer. what he is saying about the flaws and the bureaus of original investigation with the ties to russia. plus, the president setting his sights on a new target, senator kamala harris, portraying her as a threat to the working class. is this the way to win over swing voters?

>> people understand that this is not a decision that indicates that joe biden is going to be the person driving all the policy decisions. i think kamala harris is the kind of person you pick who was a very ambitious person. she's going to push biden to the side on these decisions that are going to be made, it's only given. and her case in particular, that should concern a lot of people. she has the second most voting record that you can find in the senate, and her 10-year. that's not some partisan measure, that's the thing that is used by all sorts of academics, the measure that is used to analyze votes, the second most leftist voting record in the senate. she's also someone wh who is notoriously anti-bipartisan in terms of her record that something that the leader center at georgetown found as well. these are not measures that are put up by the g.o.p. or by some conservative group, other measures that indicate how far left she truly is. >> blake: here's how the trump campaign is trying to frame her, "kamala harris is a california liberal who has defined herself as a radical democrat with her support of the green new deal, socialized medicine, fracking bands, tax raises, and tax funded abortions." there is a lot in there. do think that's the way the trump campaign should go? >> i think there is one aspect in that that deserves more attention, kamala harris has one of the most antireligious, anti-catholic records you can find. she said that obviously a member of the knights of columbus should not be able to be on any kind of court. that's a membership organization through the catholic church that obviously jfk belong to. it's a extreme position to have. she was criticized by her own party. you will continue to see that issue put forward. nobody really thinks that joe biden is a radical, but they do believe and it's accurate to say that he's too weak to stand up to the members of his own party who want to put the country in a radical direction. >> blake: if you were to be president he would be the president and he would set policy for that party, no? >> you have more faith in that than i do. i don't think that joe biden is the person who directs the situation on the democratic side and to call him the leader of the party is an accurate. the party is being led by a radical leftist agenda. i don't even think that nancy pelosi directs her own conference in terms of the votes she's had to take. she is notoriously opposed to impeachment, something that ended up dominating what democrats did. and i think this is an indication that a new generation of leaders is taking over the party and that they do represent a more radical vision of the future, including kamala harris. >> blake: we will see kamala harris out on the trail and wisconsin, she's meeting with the international brotherhood of electrical workers and then speaking to black business owners. the latest polling in milwaukee, not good for president trump. joe biden is up by 4 in that state according to the latest fox news poll, joe biden is up by 8. what do you make of wisconsin and what you think we see of harris today? >> i don't think that senator kamala harris is going to have a very warm welcome. joe biden didn't get one. while i do respect of the polling evidence there, i think the trump campaign has its mind on turning out a lot of white working-class voters, people who are difficult to pull, these are the same numbers we saw last time around. i expect we will see a similar result in 2020. >> blake: we have to leave it there. good to speak with you. have a good one today. >> julie: a longtime critic of joe biden says she's voting for him for president. three decades ago anita hill testified before the senate committee considering the nomination of her former boss clarence thomas to the supreme court. women's groups were outraged about the way the committee dismissed her claim of sexual harassment. joe biden was the chairman. he will tell cnn, she is now with biden regardless. >> who would you like to see elected?

>> i think you will continue to see polls fluctuate and we will continue to see the race tighten. we've always believed that this is going to be a close race and that is why the dnc and the biden campaign haven't been investing in these battleground states. the dnc actually put organizers there months ago even in the middle of the primary to make sure that we're reaching out to voters and talking to them, especially latino voters. one thing i want to point out is that even in a place like florida we have did focus groups they are and we had the top three issues among latino vote voters, covid, the economy, and health care. one of the things that we continue to hear down there is exactly -- especially latino families are worried about the administration handling of the virus. specifically about that and their kids back to school, that there is no plan to get them out of this virus, and especially in a place like florida where you continue to see cases at an all-time high. i think that right now what latino voters and now that it is labor day everyone talks about how labor day is the kickoff to the sprint election, but we will see these polls tighten. that is why we made historic investments in places like florida and now have the largest latino outreach program in the history of florida. >> julie: it's interesting you mentioned the three top among latino voters, i noticed you didn't mention one and that is legal has been asked in this country are concerned about immigration. they don't want illegals to come into this country and skip ahead and they want them to do it legally, the way many of them did. that is how they got to be citizenship. there are many legal hispanics in this country that want to look to a leader who will be tough on immigration. i believe that is the reason why joe biden perhaps might be failing a bit when it comes to resonating with those legal latino voters who don't want to see a president let the immigration crisis in this country fall by the wayside. is that an issue? >> what they want specifically is a plan and they want a plan so that you get a pass to citizenship. what they want is comprehensive reform. what they believe is that daka or cyprian's and we should have daka and you should give them a path to legalization. right now all across the country, they understand is the administration continues to divide us. they understand what donald trump is doing. they see the photos of children being separated from their families. latino voters don't agree with that. they don't agree with donald trump continuing to divide our country. they don't like this. what they want is they want a leader who can actually have a plan, work with congress, work to get comprehensive immigration reform. make sure we are providing legalization. that is what latino voters want to. they also want someone who will look out for them. unemployment is in double digits and you continue to see this pandemic impact voters by 20%. >> julie: the latino civil rights and i want to quote from the president of the civil rights group, "the campaign needs to reach out to latinos directly and specifically and ask for their votes. we haven't seen enough of that yet." what would you say to that?

>> absolutely not. that's normally what goes on. there is no issue whatsoever here. the only people who are conflating universal mail in voting, 100% voting where you get a ballot, everybody is there, we know voter rolls are notoriously filled with errors. absentee voting is the media. they're allowing for the two to be conflated time and again. there is a big difference between, the president who votes by absentee, he can't be home on election day. he submits a request for a ballot and he receives it, signs it and submits his vote. that is very different with what democrats are trying to do in nevada which is sending out live ballots to universal voting rolls to people who may not be active voters become a people who may have moved or died. you're putting -- that's roger lehr, you're putting a ballot out to everybody and that means if they're not there, someone could grab that ballot. that's an issue and that's what were talking about here. that's what democrats are trying to do. chaos and to the election system to upend it before election day. >> julie: mccarthy has a point, if there is one demographic that is fearful it is the seniors. there are the most at risk for covid-19. with the president sending out a message that you should not go into your postal office and that you should not be mailing in your vote, you should go in person and those seniors would be president trump voters, that could possibly scare away older voters who might support the president? with that in mind, is there a different message that the president should get out there for exactly those voters, the seniors? >> the president by no means has had that people should not vote absentee, to request a ballot, to put a ballot into the mail. what he is saying is what democrats are trying to do with upending the election system, it's frie ripe for fraud and ch. if you are in that section of the country, absolutely, requester absentee ballot and submit it early. make sure your vote has been counted. the president has had clear, he wants to make sure people can vote safely and do so. >> julie: i'm going to switch gears by this article by the atlantic. here's the headline, "trump, americans who die in war are losers and suckers." he has repeatedly and this is what the article is stating and i'm quoting, "for sparing the intelligence of service members and asked that women veterans be kept out of parades." i want your reaction to the article. the president has said that it's completely false and that he has never defended the military more, he can defend the more. could this hurt his campaign? >> this is why the president is so fiercely a critic of the media because you see four anonymous sources go out there and not be willing to put their names to absolutely disgusting allegations against the commander in chief of the united states. there is no bigger defender, not only of our active military, but our veterans than president trump. not only in words but in action. he rebuilt the united states military, he has reformed the veterans administration, he is allowing them to get better care than ever before. there are 14 people on the record with eight of them at least with first-hand knowledge to refute these claims, to refute this story. the atlantic should be ashamed of itself. there is no better champion for america's veterans than president trump. p1 i that actions do speak louder than words and you point out a good point, the president has done a tremendous job in helping troops get out of afghanistan and fighting crimes overseas, but let's talk about those words. this is in the first time that he's been accused of disrespecting war heroes. when he attacked john mccain. "he's not a war hero, he was a war hero because he was captured. i like people who weren't captured." john mccain is not the only war hero and i will emphasize the word hero because he was one. he gave his life and he was physically abused and permanently scar and physically find that capture appeared to not recognize as a war hero, is that not a slap in the face to all of those veterans who either died in captivity or managed to escape with their lives after being tortured for years? i believe those comments sort of are coming back to those that were extremely offended by his comments about john mccain. >> did you see the president bring united states capitol to have flags flown at half-staff across the country? look at what this president has done, not only for senator mccain to honor his legacy but all veterans. this is a man who loves the troops more than any other president ever has and it's very offensive that anybody would dare say such disparaging words about this president and his love of the troops. videos exist of this president hugging veterans, meeting with families at arlington, look at what this president does, he fights for our troops. let's remember how the fake news is out there saying the president was out golfing when he shows up at thanksgiving dinner with our troops. this is more fake news and we need to understand that the president of the united states is commander in chief, there is no stronger ally fighting force in this country for our veterans and our active duty military then president donald j. trump. >> julie: thank you. >> blake: a coronavirus warning on this labor day as millions of americans get together for the holiday. why health experts believe there could be a surge in cases. plus, unions across the u.s. getting behind black lives matter. how they plan to show support for the movement next.

>> i think what she is saying is just the facts. the g.o.p. senate led foreign intelligence committee has already said that russia meddled in the 2016 to the benefit of donald trump and the detriment of hillary clinton. the national security advisor has recently said that russia is trying to metal again. we are also now hearing about china. >> blake: just to stop you there, the security center has said of russia is using a range of measures to denigrate biden. go on. i wanted to clarify that. >> that's part of the national security umbrella of this president. it's clear that they've meddled in the past and they will try to metal again. we are hearing the detriment of joe biden, also hearing about iran, china, and north korea. it's critical we make sure that the elections are always fair and the outcome is right. that's what every president should want and no difference going into 2020. >> blake: elections often are also one based on the economic situation and if there is an incumbent, how they have handled the economy. president trump has been talking about a super v, meaning the economy dipping and going back up. the biden campaign is choosing a different letter. listen here to one of the advisors to the former vice president. >> folks have to ask themselves if this recovery is working, condiments are calling this a k shape recovery, it's going well, going up for folks at the top, but her folks were middle-class or below, it's going down. the question really is, is this working for working families and the answer is no. >> blake: a k shape recovery, those of the top have kept their jobs and have done well and a rising stock market, but those at the lower income levels have lost their jobs or been furloughed and haven't made as much money this year as they have in years past. is that part of the argument? >> what is interesting is not only economists are saying it, the chamber of commerce said it. i wrote a piece on this last week to many of the people i advise. it's clear that we do have a k shape recovery. we have the haves and have-nots. we have 10.6 million jobs, but we've lost 22 plus million. 87% of those in the stock market are the top 10%. you places like amazon, target, stock is up 100%, at the same time 100,000 small businesses are closed for you look at what is happening in poverty, food insecurity, and covid were 2.8 times the number of people are being impacted in the black and brown community versus the white male caucasian. there is no question that this is a recovery with the wealthiest doing better and the others are not. that's a fact. >> blake: i'm glad you brought up jobs because there is one jobs report left before the november election. you look at the end employment rate the last five months, since april, 14%, 13%, 10%, 80%. it's going down. maybe we might see seven or 6% before the election. if that is the case, does president trump have a winning hand? >> i would tell you, first of all, 3.4 million people have left the workforce permanently, 5 million jobs have been lost, 24 million people are actually working less were not working at all. let's just be clear, june was 4.8 million, july was 1.7, august was 1.4, this recovery is slowing. it's not a v shape, it's the opposite. i would say that i hope we have a great recovery, i hope we have unemployment under 5% and i hope we have 20 million new jobs, but the data does not tell you that today. >> blake: i think everyone hopes that. especially on labor day. robert wolf, good to talk to y you. >> julie: protests are turning violent yet again across the country this weekend. portland police declaring a riot, but the question is this, where are they coming from?

>> there are a lot coming from out of the city to participate in these activities, it's giving them a form to go crazy because of the fact that there really is no justice, no peace, meaning people are getting arrested and they're getting right back out like a merry-go-round and their exciting the riots, looting the business and hurting the public inside new york city. >> julie: many local mayors, many of the states and democratic states, the local political leaders that are supposed to be protecting law enforcement are being accused of not doing enough to empower their local police in order to stop these rioters. at what point, and this is a thought i thought of this morning, to the state start to consider conducting traffic stops or checking driver's license? making sure these people who are driving into these cities are coming from over the state lines and consider a ban on travelers entering the state when you are talking about deadly force like this. it could potentially save lives. >> most definitely. also with all this, they need to take the handcuffs off the police officers to allow them to be police. there should be evidence-based and data, they're looking at the numbers, they're seeing the murders going up, but when the people are rested there letting them right back out. they need to let the police be the police. they're talking about lord knows, but these states are hindering the police effort and the ability to protect their citizens. at the tame time there not giving up their details by they work around their utopia or their own bubble. >> julie: it's a same time shamt it's become political because they are law enforcement. an interview with laura ingraham, the president when he spoke to someone who was on a lane from a certain city and in the plane it was completely loaded with thugs wearing dark uniforms, black uniforms who planned to do big damage and they're flying from city to city. anyway to stop that from happening?

>> i don't believe they have lost complete control. we have to refer to what is the disease, it's the behavior and the cure is law enforcement. elected officials need to let difference to sustain a level of calm. often times people the closest to the problem are closest to the solution and that would be law enforcement so as a result the posturing by elected officials is subsequently taking a lot of these places in the wrong direction, therefore now is the time to coalesce behind a strategy that can move forward and be successful, but you need to include law enforcement and that conversation. >> julie: these governors need to stand up and that is the only reason there are arrests because the police have their hands tied and that's the bottom line. what is it these mayors need to do? that is clearly backfiring, smut what points does change, because this cannot continue >> you have to understand, recognize that if you read the tea leaves it's been unsuccessful in connection with defunding the police. police officers are not afraid of the rioters, they're afraid of the elected officials because the elected officials are the people that can place these officers in jail. we have to understand what of the dynamic the situation is. we have writer's behavior that needs to be eradicated, how can you put off the moratorium on this violence and that is when you have to have police executives, elected officials, and community leaders engage in a negotiation and come up with a plausible solution and implement it. that hasn't happened because people have subsequently been separated. >> julie: i got cut off earlier so i have to ask you this about the question of where these riders are coming from. they're not all locals. the other question is where are they getting the funding. there was an interview with laura ingraham and the president, he said he spoke with someone on a plane and it was almost completely loaded with thugs wearing dark uniforms, black uniforms of gear who planned to do big damage, implying these organized rioters are flying from city to city. who was blin buying their plane tickets? a lot of these protesters probably don't have jobs. what do they do to prevent these riders from moving from city to city? >> in terms of putting forth an agenda to eradicate these people that are coming from outside, this is when the elected officials need to coalesce behind to the community leaders so they can understand, identify, and recognize who these individuals are and place a referendum on these officials. you have a multitude of different organizations such as antifa and black lives matter that have been gaining financial support. that in many ways is fueling the agitators that are coming from out of town. the boots on the ground in those particular areas where the riots are occurring, they need to posture and that's not happening. >> julie: thank you. i appreciate it. >> blake: and assistant high school principal who recorded himself at a protest yell income "f the police" it happened on friday. he reportedly released a video on facebook after he said police used pepper spray. the school district apologized and said it would not condone his remarks. they added the district stands and solidarity and support of racial equality and systemic change. the statement said any potential punishment would be kept secret. some on social media were outraged by that response, still nearly 5,000 people have signed a petition demanding this womanist rater not to be fired. not only are criminals shooting more people in new york city, more are getting away with it. data from the near police department that "the new york post" has analyzed, according to the post, 20% of shootings ended in a arrest here that was through the end of last month. it's below the normal number of shootings that ends and arrests, that's around 33% which itself as you can imagine has a lot less to be desired. staten island has the best rate of shootings solved, about half, while shooters in brooklyn are likely to get off scot-free with 15%. >> julie: the sierra national forest in california is on fire. massive rescue operation is underway. helicopters flying over the flames rest during 200 people, christina coleman has been reporting on this all morning and she's been covering the story line from los angeles. christina?

>> i think, i'm not surprised to see the trump campaign be very bullish about their internal polling. this is something the campaign always seems to do. i'm glad that you joined both "the new york times" headline with ercp polling because history is a very good guide, but history does retire context. it's true that president trump is going into this reelection very similar to president bush, but the context is important. the context is that while trump is underwater and an underdog he's had to combat this pandemic. he's behind joe biden by seven points, but if you look at those six battleground states that we have pulled and that average, it shows a rather narrow race. i think that democrats, unlike in 2016, they're not taking anything for granted. >> blake: polls are snapshots in time and as you say the battleground states are narrowing so as we go closer or get closer to election day, to think they still continue to narrow? because that certainly the hope of the trump campaign. this remind me of a conversation i had with minority whip steve scalise, i think it was in may or june. his argument was, the reason why the president at that time had not narrowed, got closer to joe biden was because at that point the race really was between us, not just the president and the democratic nominee, but against the coronavirus as well. there had not been as much of a contrast. his theory of the case is that after these conventions you can have a one-on-one comparison between the two camps and the comparison of the trump campaign wants to push right now, they want to push the comparison on the issue of violence and rioting and looting. >> blake: before we go, kamala harris will be on the campaign trail today for the first time and we see joe biden starting to get out on the trail again. does that move things in his direction or is this built in as a very unusual election year? >> it's very unusual because it's been so virtual but something i've been impressed by by both campaigns to be quite honest is that their retail politics have not suffered considering the challenging circumstances that we've just had. maybe those two conventions, those infomercials didn't move the needle too much, but what we saw and that preprogramming was two candidates who did their best to be empathetic and actually interact with voters. i think biden and harris do a very good job working the rope lines. obviously it's going to be socially distance, but i think it will lean into that advantage as they come down the stretch. >> blake: see you tomorrow, enjoy the rest of your day. >> julie: the senate's top democrat chuck schumer now calling for an investigation into the postmaster general after five former employees say that he pressured them to support g.o.p. causes. they say he even reimbursed them with company funds for donating to republican candidates. "the washington post" first reporting the story and now he's tweeting, "these are very serious allegations that must be investigated immediately independent of the trump justice department." he is independent of donald trump and he is the right person to start this investigation. >> still to come some alarming news from the pentagon, one nation ramping up its air force so fast that it could threaten our forces in the u.s. that warning coming up next. plus parts of california setting record temperatures as a heat wave scorches that state up and down. how long will it last?

>> oh, yeah, i agree with the whole report. what has taken place here is china for more than a decade has been the most rapidly growing military in the world. as jennifer mentioned, they have the largest navy, but they also have the largest army, the largest coast guard, the largest offense of rocket and missile forces in the world. and there increasing the capability of all of those services and as noted here, the capability of their air forces. their air forces are not the largest, but they are the largest in the region to include u.s. deployed forces and that region. the united states air force is larger than china, but china has state-of-the-art aircraft, state-of-the-art defense systems, state-of-the-art drones and layer building the world's first on-demand stealth bomber. we haven't seen in this competition since the soviet union post world war. china wants to do economic and military domination worldwide and replace the united states as a global leader and eventually change the international system that has been an place for 70 plus years since the end of world war ii. that is where they're going. >> julie: they reported to include a total of 2500 aircraft's. here is gordon chang talking about what china has that the u.s. doesn't. watch. >> china has whole classes of missiles the united states does not have and the reason is that we were in the treaty which prohibited intermediate range missiles here china was not a member of the treaty and so it developed missiles that can hit u.s. navy ships. clearly we have a long way to go to even get to where china is in some classes of weapons. >> julie: of the united states not having missiles, that's a bg issue, is there anything we can do to change that? because we are rapidly changing that. what gives us a real pause for concern is not where china is going to be 20 years from now because we have allies that are uniting with us just as we do against the soviet union. we have allies that are a part of a coalition. in the near term it is true, what concerns us, if china wanted to go to war in taiwan or in the south china sea, they have offense have long-range missiles that can take out our ships and we would have assets, high capital assets destroyed on a scale we have been seen. they would also take out all of our bases in the region. that is what gives us huge concern. we have to put missile defense is out there and we have to have our own offense of missiles to hold theirs. that is why the trumpet defense buildup is so critical. it's more critical than the reagan defense buildup post-vietnam war. >> julie: general, great to have you on. >> good talking to you. speed to the university of southern california placing a professor on leave after he used a chinese word that sounds a racial slur. he was giving a virtual class on how different cultures use filler words to take pauses while talking and then he used a chinese expression that sounds like a racial slur. some students complained saying they were offended, the university apologized and the professor said there was no ill intent. >> julie: the temperature and one part of los angeles county reached 121 degrees yesterday, can you believe that?
