Not. We are glad to see you back. I am a covid magnet. I was on my fourth covid. Everyone is leaving the studio. Come back, i am good. I am negative. The most he will ever be. Correct, for the next three or four months. I watch my show an office in the morning the tv went on and i had myself a bit of a nap. We are getting going. You know what i am saying . We are going to roll. Is bringing the covid energy this morning. It is good to see you back at work. Velshi starts now. With 52 days left to go into Election Day one debate in the books. Kamala harris is touting her bid as, quote, a new way forward. While Donald Trump is starting to sound like a broken record. In the days since the debates, the democratic nominee has returned to the Campaign Trail and shifted her focus back to the Swing States that could be key to her victory in november. Yesterday harris returned to the allimportant State Of Pennsylvania where she held rallies and a pair of counties that Donald Trump won in 2016 and 2020. She sat down with the local News Station for her first postdebate and first solo interview as the democratic nominee. The day before that she did North Carolina, one of the most purple states on the map. The democrats is only once or twice in the past 50 years but they often voted democrat in statewide elections. It is a state they believe is truly in play this year. Tim walz has been out On The Road this week rowling voters in michigan and wisconsin. Both spouses have been helping the campaign on the ground in Swing States like arizona and georgia. Soon, even bigger names are set to hit the trail in support of Harris And Walz Barack And Michelle Obama And Bill and Hillary Clinton will participate in Campaign Events beginning this coming week. This is all part of the Harris Campaign Postdebate strategy to reach Emperors Aid persuade undecided voters. They are seeking to capitalize on the winning Debate Performance which was seen by more than 60,000 million people and given her another boost of momentum in the final weeks of the race. During the Debate Harris commanded the stage and successfully baited trump into going off on long irrelevant talents about Crowd Size and other petty topics. Demonstrated how his bid is largely a Selfserving Campaign that exist primarily to boost his own ego. Be on that trumps aimless answers during the debate should make Everyone Question his Competence And Ability to hold the most powerful job in the world for another four years. He spent a Portion Ranting about migrants eating peoples pets in ohio. And democrats executing babies after they are born, which prompted them moderator to challenge trump there is no state in this country where it is legal to kill a baby after it is born. If you are still trying to make sense of the bulk of what trumps that on tuesday night, you are most definitely not alone. That is because very little of what trump said it made any sense at all. At this point it is actually irresponsible for anyone to pretend like there is Logic Or Substance in the things that come out of his mouth. There is now a term for that, same washing. It is the act of trying to rationalize the rambling, radical and racist statements made by a belligerent. It is the purposeful or inadvertent effort to sabotage what that belligerent person said to make it seem like he or she said something of value in the middle of a long rant about sharks or lecture boats, for example. Trumps speeches has grown too erratic and incoherent to ignore in recent months. That was on full display this week. He has started spreading new Conspiracy Theories telling the audience that he thinks harris was wearing an earpiece during the debate. That is one of the many Conspiracy Theories promoted by this woman, laura loomer, a far right selfdescribed races but for tour who has been spotted in trumps entourage. He is unqualified and unserious candidate. Unworthy of the presidency and who Stop Making Sense all long, long time ago, if he ever did. Wild as it is, Donald Trump is also the republican nominee for president and the things he says need to be taken seriously. For more in this im joined by the niece of the former President And Author of multiple books including too much and never enough, how my family created the worlds most dangerous man and the brandnew book, who could ever love you a Family Memoir. Mary, you are not anyone whos ever saying washed Donald Trump. You do need to take him seriously. You do not need to explain or try to make sense of the things he says that our nonsensical. It is great to be with you. I had my first case of covid and fell is the word. It is great to have you back. I am so glad you were talking about this. I wrote a piece recently discussing the dangers of same washing. It is not that many Media Outlets think that they need to translate donald. First of all they are not telling us that is what they are doing but they are just pretending that he said these understandable coherent things. Much worse than that they are imbuing his statements with meaning that is not there. Making him seem more serious and less delusional than he actually is, as you just pointed out. You at the Economic Club Of New York a little over a week ago he was asked a straightforward question about Childcare Policy. You could almost give it a yes or no answer. He went on some rant about tariffs on china and all sorts of stuff. Some reporters felt the need to explain what he would do about Childcare Policy and about tariffs. Only adequate reporting would be to say he gave an incoherent rambling answer that did not answer the question. It has begun to feel like everybody is in on the game. We have been told for years now that some of the most disqualified things about Donald Trump are baked in, so no one cares about them anymore. That is really the wrong take here. It gives him an enormous advantage. He can do anything and we are all just supposed to assume that is just fine and it gives him permission to get away with worse. As you said earlier, it is not as if any of this is new. It is just increasingly less hinged, more delusional, more dangerous. The people he surrounds himself with have always been awful. They are becoming more dangerous to democracy and to american citizens. Talk to me about how, if at all, we should be bothering. Should we be distinguishing between the less hinged and more delusional versus the dustup that he talk about with pets in ohio . Which is a very determined and deliberate racist attempt to do something. One think we need to do is take Everything Head on. If he tried to talk about everything at once, it just cancels everything out. If one person had done one of the things Donald Trump has done, that person will not be allowed to run for the presidency. Because he has done all of them, it is okay. Let us take the situation in ohio. This is just the latest example of something he has been doing for years. This is terrorism. People can put up means about him and laugh about it but this is deadly serious. We see the fall out. Donald trump has and will get people killed because of his dangerous rhetoric and the fact that he is willing to stop at nothing. If he things to meeting the most vulnerable people among us is going to get him another vote. If he thinks that scaring people on a daily basis is going to get him another vote, he will do it he has no conscience unfortunately, i have said this four years ago and it is more true now. If Donald Trump is going down, he will take all of us with him and he will start with the most vulnerable people in our country. In your memoir which is called, who could ever love you, you describe Donald Trump is someone who developed a widening cruel streak during his childhood. Talk to me about how you believe that shaped who he is and is becoming more of today. When donald was very young, at a very crucial did elemental stage in his life, my grandmother became quite ill and was unavailable both emotionally and physically for about a year. The only caretaker he had left was my grandfather, who was a sociopath. I mean that diagnostically, not colloquially. Donald had very little care when he was a young child that he developed some strong Defense Mechanisms to deal with the loneliness and the fear. Simultaneously, as he grew older, he saw my dad, who was the oldest son and the names take be treated quite cruelly by their father, my dad was supposed to take over the empire and my grandfather found him wanting. Donald did not want to be treated like freddy. Donald realized that the Defense Mechanisms he develops, the bullying, his own cruelty, appealed to my grandfather and he was able to take my Dad S Place because my grandfather actually valued what he saw in donald. Mary, it is always great to have you here. Never fill an obligation if youre under the weather to do this. You can always take a pass. You are amazing. I hope you feel better real soon. Mary trump is the author of who can ever love you Family Memoir she is also the author of the good in us.

The biden administration says that russian State Media and the kremlin back Tv Network are waging covert Information Warfare around the globe and are effectively an arm of Moscows Spy agencies. The administration adds that rt and the umedia groups are working to enter here in multiple country elections including in moldova and here in the united states. The revelation came as President Biden hosted Kier Starmer at the White House with Russias War in ukraine being the Focal Point of their discussions. Among the topics of discussion, longrange missiles and specifically whether united states will allow ukraine to use western supplied longrange missiles for strikes inside russia. So far biden has held firm against this. The administration has recently signaled an openness to non american made and supplied weapons being used inside russia. Russia has reacted angrily to the Missile Push with Vladimir Putin saying it would be akin to a declaration of war. He has made similar frets throughout this war. This is the first Major Push By Moscow since ukraine incursion which took place more than a month ago. They claim to have captured some 500 square miles of russian territory. Russian Defense Ministry says that they have recaptured 10 settlements with in that territory. In a statement ukrainian president Volodymyr Zelenskyy acknowledged the counteroffensive adding, quote, everything is going in accordance with our ukrainian plan but he did not elaborate on that. Turning now to a story involving one of the few instances in when the united states and russia still work together and that is space exploration. Suni williams and Butch Wilmore, the two astronauts who are stranded on the international Space Station since june announced yesterday that they will be voting in the upcoming u. S. Election from Space Wilmore told reporters that it is a very important role that we play as citizens. With williams adding she is looking forward to be able to vote from space, which is pretty cool. Which it is. How is that done . Johnson Space Station is located in texas. Election pixels officials are sending them password protected pdf ballots with clickable boxes to make their choices. Astronauts have been voting from space since 1997 when the Texas Legislator passed a bill allowing massive employees to Cast Ballots from orbit the astronauts are expected to remain stranded at the iss until february and then they plan to come back to work on a Spacex Capsule as opposed to the Boeing Starliner Spacecraft on which they arrived.

Congress needs to pass a top Stopgap Spending Bill in order to abort the shutdown is two and half weeks or nine legislative days to be exact. This bill, a resolution would fund the government for the next six months and keep the workers paid and departments running and is now being hijacked by another piece of the Big Light Being Spread by Donald Trump to undermine the election. In 2020 the Big Lie that the election being stolen centered around claims of rigged Voting Machines and some dead people voting. This your Donald Trump is already sowing the seeds of questioning the little just me noncitizens voting in large numbers. He has instructed republicans in congress to hold the Funding And Functioning of the federal Government Hostage to spread this new piece of the Big Lie. Republican House Speaker Mike Johnson added a measure to the Stopgap Spending Bill note as the Save Act. Save stands for safeguard american Voter Eligibility it is a measure that require proof of citizenship when registering to vote. Many republicans and lockstep with Donald Trump are insisting on trying to save tying the Save Act to the government funding bill. Not because the Save Act has anything to do with keeping the government running. Republicans in the house passed the Save Act as a standalone bill in july. This act has already been passed. Has not been signed but they are now attaching it to the shortterm Spending Bill so that its fate is tied to the functioning of the united States Government to force democrats to either vote for the Save Act or watch the republican shut down the government a month before Election Day. Which brings us to the problem with the Save Act and the reason democrats dont want to vote for it at all. The problem with the Save Act is that it is already illegal for noncitizens to vote in federal elections. There is no purpose to it. It is unnecessary from a legal and a legislative perspective. What it is useful for is propaganda. It is a bill to crack down on Noncitizen Voting, which is a legal and is not actual problem in our election. It sends a message that Noncitizen Voting is a problem at a time with Donald Trump and his republican allies are pushing that exact life to undermine the legitimacy of america electoral process. The Save Act is inextricably bound up in the lies that Donald Trump is telling about immigrants and our elections. Donald trump wrote on true social, if republicans in the House And Senate do not get assurances on election security, they should all go forward with a continuing resolution on the budget. The democrats are trying to stuff Voter Registration with illegal aliens, do not let it happen. Close it down he repeated this lie during the debate on tuesday. We have to have borders and good elections. Our elections are bad. A lot of these illegal immigrants coming in are trying to get them to vote they cannot speak english and know what country they are in practically and these people are trying to get them to vote. That is why they are allowing them to come into our country. For fax sake, as i said, it is already illegal for non citizens to vote in federal u. S. Elections. That includes house, Senate And President ial elections. There are number of safeguards in place to make sure only eligible citizens registered to vote and cast a ballot for they must come from under penalty of perjury that they are citizens when they registered to vote. If it is found that someone like Bacon Face of fines, imprisonment or deportation. When registering most states require a Drivers License or a state i. D. The Save Act wants to require citizens to produce more documentation, in
