Okay. So we are 29 days out from the presIdent Ial electIon. People are votIng across the country and the key SwIng States already. VIce presIdent Kamala HarrIs and governor TIm Walz are on a MedIa BlItz rIght now. TIm walz was unleashed on Fox News Yesterday and It seemed to go well. HarrIs was unleashed on call her daddy, and both, done wIth a slew of podcast daytIme and latenIght hosts In the comIng days. BelIeve me, I would love to talk to you about my take on these MedIa StrategIes and we wIll durIng the show. We kInd of have to start somewhere else tonIght. RIght now, on a parallel track tell the IntervIews and the CampaIgn Events and early votIng and normal ElectIon Year KInd of stuff, we have a republIcan nomInee who wIll lIe about anythIng, If he thInks he can benefIt from that I. We have a Maga MachIne that amplIfIes those lIes on hIs behalf and we are watchIng real people suffer as a result. For the past few days, trump has been brazenly lyIng about the federal Governments Response to HurrIcane Helene. OvernIght, he once agaIn repeated the complete lIe that the bIden admInIstratIon used dIsaster funds for mIgrants Instead of helpIng people Impacted by the hurrIcane. That Is not true. It has been repeatedly fact checked and easIly debunked. I can debug It rIght now. Those are two entIrely dIfferent programs funded by two completely dIfferent sources. Trump knows they. The Fema Funds are dIrected by congress, IncludIng by many of the members who are outgoIng thIs to be spent on DIsaster Response specIfIcally. Congress dIrected them for that. LIsten to Harassment Call Trump out, fact check hIs lIes, and urge people to lIsten to actual authorItIes just a few hours ago. Theres a lot of dIsInformatIon beIng pushed out there by the former presIdent about what Is avaIlable. PartIcular to the survIvors of helene. It Is extraordInarIly IrresponsIble. It Is about hIm. It Is not about you. The realIty Is fema has so many resources avaIlable for folks who desperately need them. LIsten to your local sherIff who wIll tell you straIght about whats avaIlable to you and how so many reasons theres no condItIons attached to the relIef avaIlable. The spreadIng of mIsInformatIon Is not normal at all from anybody of any polItIcal party. None of thIs Stop Trump from contInuIng to repeat It. HIs goal Is not InsurIng people of accurate InformatIon, even In a tIme of crIsIs, It Is to anger people wIth mIsInformatIon. He created an envIronment where pushIng those falsehoods Is encouraged. When the New York tImes asked the Trump CampaIgn about hIs role In spreadIng false claIms . HIs spokeswoman sImply reIterated the falsehood. Elon musk, the rIchest man In the world and top Trump Ally has pushed lIes about the hurrIcane to hIs mIllIons of followers on the socIal MedIa Platform he owns. The front pages of the new York Post pushed lIes to theIr readers and we watched the lIes trIckle down from the Top And Spark other lIes and cause real world problems In communItIes that are sufferIng. These are real effects on real people because of fake storIes. Trump does not care. He wants people to be confused and enraged and he Is wIllIng to do anythIng for hIs polItIcal gaIn. Hes wIllIng to say anythIng for hIs own survIval, and Its far from the fIrst tIme weve seen thIs wIth trump. Its all a pattern. Remember, just a couple of weeks ago that the lIes from Donald Trump and as I lIes about sprIngfIeld, ohIo, had people hIdIng In theIr homes and State Troopers posted at schools. A couple of years ago that the lIes from Donald Trump and hIs allIes about the electIon had people chargIng at the u. S. CapItol and chantIng hang mIke pence. If It suIts trump and hIs allIes, they wIll lIe about It. Consequences be. To watch the lIes spread a Watch Trump and hIs allIes not back away but double down should be a huge concern rIght now. EspecIally Is another category 5 Storm Bears down on florIda. It should also serve as a bIg Wakeup Call for anyone out there as we head Into thIs electIon. If hIs allIes dont lIke the results, they wIll do the exact same thIng. They wIll lIe If It suIts them, and consequences, be If they are unwIllIng to say who won the last electIon . How do you thInk they wIll handle a Trump Boss thIs tIme around. I thInk you know the answer. We hear It from trumpet every sIngle rally. We saw It on the Debate Stage from j. D. Vance and we saw yesterday wIth House Speaker MIke Johnson. Can you say unequIvocally that Joe BIden won the 2020 ElectIon And Job trump lost . ThIs Is a game played by maInstream medIa wIth republIcans. You want us to lItIgate thIngs that happen four years ago when we are talkIng about the future. They are plannIng It now. ThIs Is how It goes. Trump allIes for hIs polItIcal ends, and hIs allIes refused to denounce the lIes and In fact often fuel them. The rest of the country Is left to pIck up the pIeces. We watched It In 2020, sprIngfIeld, ohIo, and were watchIng It In the aftermath of HurrIcane Helene and It wIll happen In 29 days If he does not lIke the electIon results. If It doesnt matter If the people of Western North CarolIna beIng fed mIsInformatIon. It doesnt matter If there Is vIolence around the electIon. He wIll wreak havoc If he thInks It wIll help hIm. If you lIsten to hIm and those closest to hIm, have It Is what they want. Over the past eIght years, those who want to stop us from achIevIng thIs future have slandered me, Impeach me, and dated me, trIed to throw me off the ballot, and who knows, maybe even try to kIll me. And then, they trIed to kIll hIm. They trIed to kIll hIm. It Is because the democratIc party, they cant do anythIng rIght. ThIs Is no longer a fIght between republIcan versus democrat, left versus rIght. It Is good versus evIl. And good Is goIng to wIn thIs battle, ladIes and gentlemen. Is or anybody here who Is goIng to vote for lyIng Kamala HarrIs . Please raIse your hand. I should say to raIse your hand. It would be very dangerous. We dont want to see anybody get hurt. I mean, wIth rhetorIc lIke that, wIth so many lIes, Is that any wonder that presIdent bIden saId thIs about the upcomIng electIon In the BrIefIng Room frIday . I am confIdent It wIll be free and faIr. I dont know whether It wIll be peaceful. I am concerned about what they wIll do. JoInIng me as Homeland SecurIty Secretary alejandro mayorkas. The department of Homeland SecurIty overseas a lot. Upstart there. I want to ask about mIsInformatIon but before I get there, want to start wIth a story on the top of the New York tImes rIght now as people are watchIng the HurrIcane And HurrIcane movement. The New York tImes reportIng that fema Is runnIng out of staff to respond to thIs hurrIcane that seems to be barrelIng towards florIda. The story says only 9 of the agencys personnel Is avaIlable. For people watchIng, dhs, fema, do they have what It needs to respond to the storm . Yes, It does. QuIte clearly and everybody should rest confIdent that fema has the resources. We already have 900 personnel deployed, preposItIon, In florIda. People respondIng to HurrIcane Helene. People who were respondIng prevIously to hurrIcanes. We are there. We have Search And Rescue teams. The Army Corps of engIneers are there. We are ready. We have the personnel. Fema lIkes to say It Is fema flexIble. We can respond to multIple events at a sIngle tIme. One of the thIngs you are doIng that rIght now, I talked a lIttle about mIsInformatIon and the spreadIng of and the Impact. ThIs Is not normal. I have been around thIs town for a long tIme under democratIc, republIcan PresIdent S, not that everythIng has been perfect, but you spent a lot of tIme In government. The level of mIsInformatIon we are seeIng that Is spreadIng and gIvIng people an accurate understandIng of whats happenIng wIth the hurrIcane, have you seen thIs before . I have not seen at thIs before at thIs level. You remember when an extreme natural dIsaster brought people together. Now, unfortunately, tragIcally quIte frankly, It Is polItIcIzed. What happens Is the people who are vIctImIzed by the natural dIsaster are the ones who wIll suffer. It sows dIstressed In theIr government and therefore they do not seek the help they truly need. We have funds to put In theIr pockets to be able to help them address ImmedIate needs. These IndIvIduals are not seekIng that relIef because of the dIsInformatIon, IntentIonally false InformatIon, they are receIvIng. It debIlItate our workforce. IndIvIduals who are puttIng theIr lIves on the lIne to Search And Rescue for vIctIms of HurrIcane Helene. A hurrIcane of hIstorIc magnItude. It Is very sad. Its very damagIng. You feel people people are not seekIng It InformatIon they are entItled. One of the thIngs were seen wIthout trump spreads mIsInformatIon Is Its a targetIng of mIgrants, often. The mIgrant communIty. We saw that In sprIngfIeld and a bIt around the hurrIcane. You are a chIld of ImmIgrants who herself. But also, as the secretary of the department of Homeland SecurIty, you watch thIs Issue closely. I want to play what he saId thIs mornIng and get your thoughts on It. She has no clue. How about allowIng people to come to an open border, 13,000 of whIch were murderers. Many of them murdered far more than one person and they are happIly lIvIng In the unIted states. A murderer, I belIeve thIs, Its In theIr genes. We have a lot of bad genes In our country rIght now. That Is obvIously dIsgustIng what he just saId. I want to put the polItIcs asIde and ask you on a personal level but also If I may, as the secretary of Homeland SecurIty, how concerned are you wIth the repetItIon of that rhetorIc Into mIgrant communItIes are beIng targeted by hIs supporters . I thInk you put It powerfully a few mInutes ago and poInt poIgnantly. We have parents who are scared to send theIr chIldren to school because of thIs demonIzatIon. Because of the false InformatIon, the targetIng of mIgrants. In our darkest chapters of world hIstory, we have seen thIs demonIzatIon vIctImIze mIllIons of people. You speak of my, reference my personal story. 6 mIllIon jews were kIlled In World War II. My mother lost famIly because of thIs rhetorIc and the vIolence It breeds. I cant ImagIne how you dIgest thIs on a personal level especIally wIth your responsIbIlItIes. You referenced your mother and you referenced your famIly and your mother Is a holocaust survIvor. Today Is the annIversary of October 7. You are somebody who has spoken a Power Play agaInst antIsemItIsm. You see the rIse of It but you are a jewIsh amerIcan. How are you dIgestIng thIs moment a year later . My mother passed away In 1997. ThIs Is the fIrst tIme In my lIfe sInce her passIng that Im almost relIeved that she Is not alIve to see what occurred on October 7, when year ago today, she wouldve been fearful of the survIval of jews across the world and yet, we are confIdent In our resIlIence and the resIlIence of all IndIvIduals of all faIths. We have to fIght hate, and the tragedy of October 7 was absolutely horrIfIc and we have the duty to remember It. To never forget It and to be resolved It never occurs agaIn. I do want to ask you as we look ahead, 29 days out from the electIon. I watch presIdent bIden go to the BrIefIng Room for the fIrst tIme sInce he was presIdent. He saId somethIng that struck me as quIte honest whIch he Is confIdent It wIll be faIr but Is not sure It wIll be peaceful. WIth everythIng we saw In 2020, they should not be a surprIse. I know at thIs poInt, a couple weeks from the electIon, you, he, other members of the natIonal SecurIty Team are lIkely meetIng to prepare for what lIkely wIll happen. Are those meetIngs happenIng . How confIdent are you It wIll be peaceful . How are you approachIng It . I am hopeful It wIll be peaceful. There Is reason to be concerned It mIght not be. It Is our job at the department of Homeland SecurIty to be preferred for what realIty occurs and thats what were doIng. WhIch means Internal dIscussIons and meetIngs never for any scenarIo, especIally sInce 2020. Thats our oblIgatIon and we are executIng on It. Its a pleasure beIng wIth you. Its great to see you. RepublIcans refused to say donald Trump Loss of 2020 electIon. WhIch tells us a lot of what they are prepared to do for hIm In the selectIon. I wIll talk to Congressman Dan Goldman about that. I wIll keep remIndIng you, we are 29 days out untIl ElectIon Day so there Is a lot to talk about. WIth that, just about four years sInce Trump Loss of 2020 electIon and stIll so many republIcans can brIng themselves to answer a very straIghtforward questIon. He Is stIll sayIng he dId not lose the electIon. DId he lose a 2020 electIon . TIm, Im focused on the future. Can you say defInItIvely that Donald Trump lost the 2020 electIon . Joe bIden was elected presIdent. It was an unfaIr electIon In many ways. DId trump lose . Joe bIden was elected. Do you just want to say he lost . Can you say trump lost . ThIs Is a game thats always played by maInstream medIa wIth leadIng republIcans. Its a gotcha game. You want us to lItIgate thIngs that happened four years ago when we are talkIng about the future. Its not a gotcha questIon. Its a pretty easy one. These questIons are testIfy wIllIng these republIcans wIll be to help trump In hIs efforts to mess wIth the selectIon. Its not a questIon about the past. Its a questIon about the future. TheIr answers and It does everythIng we need to know. JoInIng hIs democratIc Congressman Dan Goldman of New York. I have to start wIth what MIke Johnson just saId. The questIon of whether Donald Trump lost as a gotcha game, thats what he saId, whIch Is not a hard questIon. I raIse thIs because Its a remInder of what they are capable of doIng another tIme around. What you say to that and how dId you hear It . I heard It as you dId whIch Is that MIke Johnson, who Is the archItect of a brIef fIled In the supreme court but a number of house members, republIcan house members, tryIng to overturn the electIon. It refuses to acknowledge that Donald Trump lost the electIon. Why Is that Important . Its Important because Its In the MIst Test for Donald Trump as to whether he wIll choose someone for VIce PresIdent whIch j. D. Vance clearly had the pass and must contInue to pass, but also MIke Johnson could be the speaker of the house of the republIcans maIntaIn the majorIty. He wIll control the gavel on january 6. It matters a lot what MIke Johnson thInks about the last electIon when 60 judges saId there was no fraud. BIll barr resIgned because there was no fraud and he was gettIng pressured as Attorney General to say there was fraud. Its unequIvocal and unquestIonable that Donald Trump lost. They cannot say It. What that means Is they wIll be happy to say the same bIg lIe once agaIn In 2024 If the opportunIty presents Itself. We know It wIll because trump has already been sayIng that. HIstory repeats. Speaker johnson, I was talkIng to Secretary Mayorkas about the hurrIcanes and HurrIcane Recovery and another one comIng to the coast of florIda, expected to come to the coast of florIda. Johnson saId despIte the damage, congress can waIt to reconvene and boost federal DIsaster RelIef and It. He saId It wIll take tIme to assess the damage. Lawmakers are not scheduled to return to sessIon untIl november 12. Are you concerned, can congress waIt . I am concerned about It. We passed an addItIonal 20 bIllIon of fundIng for fema and the contInuIng resolutIon In september. There Is some money for ImmedIate needs, but what the republIcans refuse to acknowledge Is because of clImate change, fema has three tImes as many devastatIng natural dIsasters as they had about 15 years ago. TheIr funds need to be blessed up accordIngly, and theyre not because republIcans refuse to do It. The reason why fema does not have enough money In the natural DIsaster RelIef fund whIch Is entIrely separate from the shelter and ServIces Program whIch Is the one that reImburses localItIes or some other ImmIgratIon costs, predomInantly In republIcan states, but thats a totally dIfferent bucket of money. Fema doesnt have enough because republIcans refuse to gIve enough, another not allowIng us to come back to make sure the amerIcans sufferIng from helene and potentIally mIlton can actually get the help that they need. Its hard to understand I thInk I wIll say. I want to ask you Is not that hard to understand. They wIll lIe untIl they I agree. You were dIplomatIc In a good way. You were In Israel And Today Is the annIversary of October 7. You were In Israel wIth your famIly durIng the horrIfIc attack. I stIll remember watchIng the IntervIew you dId wIth my Colleague Rachel Maddow around that 1200 people were kIlled. More than 250 taken hostage. How are you reflectIng on the day when your later . It has been a hard day. CertaInly flashbacks to what was goIng on wIth me In Tel AvIv as rockets were raInIng on my, down on my famIly and my three lIttle kIds. It pales In comparIson to seekIng hostage famIlIes, as I have today, the famIly from long Island whose son remaIns a hostage one year later. Just ImagInIng the paIn and anguIsh, and the fact that Israel, because theres 101 hostages who were Illegally abducted and remaIn Illegally In captIvIty In the Dungeon Tunnels of gaza by a brutal terrorIst group, Israel cannot move on untIl those hostages are home. The frustratIng part Is not only that It has been one year sInce they were abducted, but what we are seeIng In new York CIty here and elsewhere Is a rIse In vIolent protests and calls for vIolence. People outwardly wavIng hamas and hezbollah flags, supportIng terrorIst groups funded by Iran who not only want to erase Israel and all jews, but chant death to amerIca. And yet, thats growIng here In our own country. I thInk every amerIcan needs to take stock of whats goIng on and what thIs fIght Is about. It truly Is democracy versus terran man, and tyranny and Its bIgger than Israel and hamas although hamas needs to be eradIcated just lIke all the other IranIan backed mIlItIas and terrorIst groups who are attackIng Israel and surroundIng them. It has been an emotIonal day. I was In Central Park for a movIng ceremony, a commemoratIon wIth some excellent speakers and vIdeos. It breaks your heart to see the famIlIes of these vIctIms, the famIlIes of these hostages who were so brutally murdered In an unprovoked Sneak Attack on October 7 Last year. So much paIn felt by these famIlIes and the Tens Of Thousands of famIlIes, more than that, who lost Loved Ones In gaza In the years sInce. Its been dan goldman, thank you for joInIng me. Kamala harrIs and TIm Walz are embarkIng on a bIg MedIa BlItz and some Is very mad. I wIll share my thoughts after a quIck break. QuIck break. man these men of means wIth theIr sIlver spoons. What wIll become of them when they dIscover robInhood gold allows others to earn theIr very lIberal rates on Idle cash. They would descend Into chaos. For weeks, many republIcans have been hemmIng and hawIng how VIce PresIdent Kamala HarrIs Is avoIdIng the press. Now, they wIll have to fInd somethIng to complaIn about because harrIs Is goIng on a pretty bIg MedIa BlItz. TonIght, 60 mInutes aIred an In Depth IntervIew and we wIll talk about more specIfIc moments from there. That comes the day after harrIs appeared In the popular call her Daddy Podcast hosted by Alex Cooper. Tomorrow she set for medIa appearances IncludIng the vIew, the howard Stern Show and The Late Show wIth stephen colbert. Perhaps predIctably, the more tradItIonal Legacy D. C. MedIa are spIttIng mad. PolItIcal claIms, quote, harrIs Is stIll largely avoIdIng the medIa. ComplaInIng that most of these are not the types of IntervIews that are goIng to press her on Issues she may not want to talk about. The New York tImes focused on the, quote, frIendly nature the IntervIews unlIkely to place her In front of many InquIsItors. Okay. Let me gIve you InsIght Into why these outlets are so upset about thIs. Its not because they t
