So that whiteness has been seen as a universal and, therefore, a neutral forum within which people make judgments about whats going on. for instance, think about the argument that kamala harris was calculated but uncle joe wasnt. you tell me the refusal to apologize is not calculated to look tough? what did he end up looking like? he ended up looking like an old white guy who doesnt know he ought to apologize when someone says you hurt me and then gin up the argument, make principled assaults up...

Out of there. everyones on the same page on that front. at this point its about drawing the contrast between the candidates. kmtion al kamala harris will have to deal with vulnerabilities in her record as well as the others. >> cory booker and biden spent the week sparring over criminal justice reform. where do you stand on this great democratic debate whether they should be focused on trump rather than each other? >> well, ha any of us think doesnt matter because theyre all trying to get electe...

Determinations. and what he has shown over the last few months is while he had a really rough first debate, hes had some resillancy in the polls. he had a reservoir of a lot of goodwill in the after man-american community, and mainstream traditional democrats, the kind that could help him beat donald trump and seem to be reflected in the head to head polls. hes shown a lot of vulnerabilities, but hes also shown that he has a fairly strong base under him that i think will probably give him some l...

Because youre always on the road. but it is such a pleasure to see you. have a good weekend even though i know youre working all weekend. im yasmin vossoughian, everybody. in for ali velshi. it is friday, july 26th. cybersecurity experts are warning, quote, its not just the russians anymore. iran and other countries are cranking out disinformation campaigns ahead of 2020. and americans are likely to be targeted more than ever before. just like the repeated warnings from the fbi director and fo...

There are some holes saying that some states like new jersey appear not to have the money to fix a voting machine infrastructure that has no paper backup to its balloting process. so what do you think are the viable solutions here? >> well, more federal resources will help. and this is whats, again, important about this report is that you have democrats and republicans agreeing on a common sense list of recommendations because the states dont have the resources themselves. so last year congress ...

Got into the white house and even before, donald trump didnt want to talk about russia for many reasons, one of which was it made it seem as if that cast some doubt over the legitimacy of his presidency and he was very concerned about that. and he wanted to downplay russia completely. then as you pointed out subsequently, weve seen that message sort of shift. there wasnt -- i didnt do anything wrong, nothing happened. there was, well, if it happened, it would be fine. and that was basically an i...

But maybe they want us to know theyre probing vulnerabilities for cy ops. you dont have to change votes to get in the system. i wonder -- the reason i think its relevant is they did so many things that were easily detectible. they didnt cover their tracks. when you look at it do you think whats so insidious about this, they can either manipulate the election or manipulate our faith in the election? either way its a win for russia. >> its a double-edged sword and thats whats consistent throughout...

Carley: tracy carrasco is here to explain. >> this is on the heels of robert muellers testimony on capitol hill but the senate intelligence committee released, a bipartisan report into russian government and how the attackers directed extensive activity against us election infrastructure, potentially identifying some vulnerabilities these russian hackers can exploit in future upcoming elections. the report continued, quote, in its review of the 2016 election the committee found no evidence they ...

Momentarily, but let mess get yew thoughts on the committee conducting its own investigation. what are the biggest vulnerabilities congressman, right now in the infrastructure? >> good even, wolf. the biggest vulnerability is the president. he is the leader of our country, and it doesnt matter how hard the fbi agents and the nsa and cia work, if they dont have leadership at the top and a commander in chief directing them, giving them the resources they need, all the best resources will not preve...

Indication theyve done anything to change any voting totals, any voting counts. but this is a sobering report, wolf. because it reminds us that a lot of the infrastructure that was in place in 2016 that the russians managed to get into in all 50 states, that is still in place. a lot of states have not updated their infrastructure, and again, this is a country where all of this is handled on the state level. its not the federal government that runs the elections. and thats one of the strengths of...
