All right. Thank you for watching. Cnn tonight starts now. Thats it, no closing argument. Nothing. Whats better than you. And i cant do better than ken burns. Hes right. He was great. Of course theres always overcorrection. In everything. The pendulum swings and comes back. The question is we should be looking out for the people who make excuses about are we going too far. Yes. We will go too far and come back. And you have to remember that for hundreds of years people as he said had a foot or knee on their neck. So, you have to allow for imperfection. Thats what happens. I dont necessarily agree. I dont think anyone agrees with the destroying of property. You can understand how offensive it is to see the statues and similar bombs still up in your face every day. When you know what they mean to you. Key for people like me. The take the cotton out of your ears and shove it in your mouth. When youre in my position. I have been looking at statues for a long time. The museum of natural history. Never saw it the way i do now. Thats good for you. That thing on your face. Youre on tv. Do your show. Do what everybody else does. Buy a sports car, buddy. How about that in the middle of your face. Your mouth. More offensive than me. This is cnn tonight. Listen, we cannot stop holding the president accountable. Accountable for racism and incompetent dangerous handling of the coronavirus. For his hypocrisy. So here we go. More than 120,000 americans dead. Rite now. More than 121,000. Coronavirus hot spots flaring up across south and west. And the president travels to arizona one of the hot spots and instead of empathy, instead of modelling life saving behavior by wearing a mask. He doubles down on the same old racist slur. All different names. Wuhan. Wuhan was catching on. Coronavirus. Right . Kung flu. Yes. As they always say, and they cheered and cheered. Its racist. It is. Kung flu is racist. Plain and simple. Just like he did in the rally in tulsa on saturday, he tossed it out. Just to get a reaction from the crowd. It worked. As i said they cheered. A crowd of young supporters cheering a racist slur in a church. In a church. Hows that for christian behavior . Only a handful of people Wearing Masks even though phoenix requires them indoors within six feet of others. The risk is very real. Arizona today setting a single day record with more than 3,500 new cases, 42 deaths reported. Dr. Fauci saying the next few weeks will be critical in states like arizona. The next couple of weeks will be critical in our ability to address those surgings that were seeing in florida and texas. In arizona and in other states. Theyre not the only ones that are having a difficulty. As we get into the fall and winter. The first thing that we need to do is to try as best adds possible to get the complete out break under control. So this everything is at such a low level that when there are cases that come up, you can contain them as opposed to mitigating essentially chasing after a forest fire. The president ignoring the science. Ignoring the facts. He cannot ignore what is happening in this country. This is a cdc director. We have all done the best that we can do to tackle this virus. And the reality is that brought the nation to its knees. Red field, the reality is it didnt have to be this way. We didnt have to have more than 120,000 mesh americans die. With the virus still raging. We could have listened to the experts. When everyone was saying listen to the experts. Down playing it. It was a hoax. Even still. Closer to the now. Its going to go away, havent heard from the Coronavirus Task force in weeks. Experts like dr. Fauci with this very simple straightforward advice today. Plan a. Dont go in a crowd. Plan b if you do, make sure you wear a mask. That is advice that this crowd obsessed nonmask wearing president is ignoring. I guess you cant expect him to actually listen to experts like dr. Fauci. The president hasnt spoken to him in two and a half weeks. Thats according to fauci. We heard the same thing from other members of the task force who testified today. So the president of the United States is not even bothering to speak to the members of his own task force about the virus that is killing more americans every single day. The president of the United States. Think about that. Not even bothering to speak to members of the task force. About a virus that is killing more and more people every day. Every single day. Does that appear to be a priority . Havent spoken to someone in two and a half weeks. Are they a priority . And now contradicting his white house insisting he wasnt kidding. He was not kidding when he said on saturday that he wanted people to slow down testing. I dont kid. Let me tell you. Let many make it clear. We have the greatest Testing Program anywhere in the world. We test better than anyone in the world. Tests are the best in the world and we have the most. By having more tests we find more cases. The president says nope, hes not kidding about slowing down testing. And now when lives depend on it, we cant believe this president. Thats the problem. Hes such a problem with the truth that you dont know what to believe. If someone has a problem with the truth you dont believe what they are saying. They are discredited. And discounted. Because they have no credibility. No credibility with the truth. Everything he says is the opposite of what his own experts would tell him. If they could actually talk to him. So, i just want dont forget lets not forget that he down played this virus for months. He encouraged americans to take a potentially dangerous drug even taking it himself. Remember . And then he suggested ingesting or you know, put it inside the body or maybe through the skin or some other means. Ingesting disinfectant. Could knock out the virus. We have it under control. Its going to be just fine. We have it very well under control. We have very little problem in this country at this moment. Five and those people are all recuperating successful in. In april in theory when it gets warmer it goes away. The coronavirus which is very well under control. In our country. Were going down not up. Substantially down. When you have 15 people and the 15 within a couple days will be down to close to zero. Thats a good job we have done. Were doing a great job. It will go away. Just stay calm. Some of the doctors say it will wash through. It will flow through. Very accurate youll find in a number of weeks. Also gave emergency authorization for hydroxychloroquine. And i say it what do you have to lose . What do you have to lose . Take it. It will be wonderful. It will be so beautiful. It will be a gift from heaven. If it works. Supposing you brought the light inside the body which you can do through the skin or in some other way. And i think you said youll test that . Sounds interesting. I see the disinfectant knocks it out. In a minute. One minute. Is there a way we can do Something Like that. By injection, inside or almost a cleaning. Because you see it gets in the lungs. Can you believe the president of the United States said that last bit . All of it but especially the last bit. Knocks it out in a minute and cleaning. Inside the body. Cleaning the lungs. He thought he was being smart. Then he relented and said he was being sarcastic. That wasnt sarcasm. That was real. This is a president who wont listen to the experts. But the former president obama has something to say about that. At a socially distanced fundraiser for his vice president. Joe biden. We had to listen to Public Health experts and dr. Fauci. Who is having testify and then see his advice flouted by the person hes working for. We have to Pay Attention to what the Public Health experts say when it comes to this campaign season. God, polar opposites. Polar opposite. Leadership, arrogance. Voters in new york and kentucky went to the polls today in a preview of the most consequential election of the our lives in november the president is making it clear he doesnt want you to be able to vote by mail. In the middle of a pandemic. The democrats are also trying to rig the election. By sending out tens of millions of mail in ballots. Using the china virus as the excuse for allowing people not to go to the polls. We have a virus coming, we have to send think of it. California. Sending out millions of ballots. Well, where are they going . Where are the ballots going . Whos getting them . Who is not getting them . A section that is republican. Will they be stolen from mail boxes as they get put in by the mailman . Taken from the mailman in the mail woman . Will they be forged . Who is signing them . Who is signing them . Are they signed on the Kitchen Table and sent in . Will they be counterfitted by groups inside our nation . Will they be counter fitted maybe by the millions by foreign powers who dont want to see trump win because nobody has been tougher on trade or making our country great again. Who is getting them . Whos getting them. Standby, ill tell you whos getting them. Its no surprise that makes absolutely no sense. What hes saying. Its interesting this president is all worked up about nonexistent foreign interference with mail in ballots. And didnt care at all about the real election interference by russia to help him, donald trump, and to hurt hillary clinton. Interesting. This president would rather have you risk your health in the middle of a pandemic. Than risk losing the election. He doesnt want you to be able to vote by mail. But when hes asked in that whos getting the ballot . Whos getting them . He is. And a bunch of other people. He has voted. He voted absentee in new york. In 2018. And in florida primary in march. Thats voting by mail. Hes not the only one in his administration to go by the old do as i say not as i do rule. Barr voted absentee in 2012. Whos getting them . Vice president mike pence did the same in 2018. And according to Business Insider mailed in a boll lot for this years indiana primary. Whos getting the ballots . White House Press Secretary voted by mail in florida eleven times. Whos getting them . Trump Campaign Manager voted by mail in 2018. Whos getting them. Ivanka trump tried to mail in her vote for new york mayor in 2017. But she sent it in too late. Whos getting them, mr. President . Jared kushner your soninlaw requested a ballot. But didnt return it. Whos getting them . Theres the first lady trying to vote absentee in the same election but didnt sign the envelope. Theyre not very good at this voting by mail thing. Didnt sign the envelope.

The commerce secretary voted absentee in florida commerce numbers. 15 times. Whos getting them . The education secretary, betsy devoss. Has permanent absentee status in michigan. Whos getting them . Kellyanne conway. Voted absentee in new jersey in 2018. Need i go on . Would you like me to read the definition of hypocrisy . I dont think i have to. I put it up on the screen. All of this is the truth. You can get mad because maybe im showing personality and giving you the truth. Asking you whos getting them. This is all the truth. No opinion. No lies detected. Truth. This administration really doesnt want you to be able to vote by mail or mail in a ballot and the president has already told you why. And i quote, more truth. This is what he said. There it is on the screen. Doesnt work out well for republicans. Except for the republicans in this administration. They can vote by mail. Do as i say, not as i do. They want you to go out and stand in line in the middle of a pandemic. Looking out for you, right . More to come on all of that. Next ill talk with nascar driver Bubba Wallace.

He was not the target of a hate crime. Ill talk to him in just a minute. First i want to get to randi kaye. Here with the latest on the investigation. Good evening to you. The federal investigation concluded that the noose found wasnt a hate crime. What are you learning . 15 fbi agents assigned to the case. They want to get to the bottom of it quickly. It was an important issue and important case. They determined this rope found in his garage has been in the garage long before that garage was actually assigned to Bubba Wallace. We have video tonight take a look at this video from 2019. On you tube. It shows a garage door rope fashioned in to a noose. And that is in the stall used by Bubba Wallaces race team. A source with firsthand knowledge is saying the noose in the 2019 video is the same noose that Bubba Wallaces team alerted about. There is just one noose involved in this case. Let me give you a bit from the joint statement. It reads in part, the noose found in the garage number 4 was in the garage as early as october 2019. Although the noose is now known to have been in garage number 4 in 2019, nobody could have known mr. Wallace would be assigned to garage 4 last week. All right. With the latest on the investigation. Thanks for clearing that up. I want to hear from Bubba Wallace himself. Back with me tonight. Bubba, good evening to you. I think you have handled this like a champ. And im appreciative that you came to speak to us tonight. We first talked about the Confederate Flag on this show and many other issues. Thank you. So much has happened in the last few hours. The federal investigation shows this wasnt a hate crime. Whats going through your head . How are you feeling . I cant hear bubba. We lost your audio. Im sorry. Im pissed. Im mad because people are trying to test my character and the person that i am. And my integrity. Theyre not stealing that from me but trying to test that. And as a person that doesnt need to fame or the hype or the media, i could care less. I give two craps about that. To sit and reading too much into it. Investing too much time. Dont do social media. I know. Im trying hard not to. And the ill probably turn my phone off tonight. Unfortunately until about 7 30 a. M. When interviewing start again. But to hear my side of the story and i dont mean to steal your spotlight. My side needs to be heard. I dont know what time it was about 6 00 on sunday evening after the race has been called, garages are closed. Crews my crew was on a plane back to north carolina. We were i was about it go out to dinner with a couple competitors. Talking about what time to leave and where were going. I get a phone call from from the president steve phelps. A phone call ill never forget. Its one of those calls where you can audimatically tell within the first couple seconds something is wrong. It immediately made me think of, what did i do . What am i getting suspended for. What did i say wrong in an interview. Whatever it was. Im thinking bad things that i had done. Whatever i said. He said we need to talk in person. He walks down and opens the door. And the look that he had on his face, alerted me in a way ill never forget. Still thinking okay what did i do, let me know. And mind you i got to the racetrack at 10 00. And slept all day. Just because thats what we were able to do. Go to the motor home. Im not allowed to be in the garage. The conversation that i had with steve was i would say im speaking for him i would say one of the hardest things if not the hardest thing hes ever had to tell somebody. Tears rolling down his face. Choked up on every word. The evidence he brought to me that a hate crime was committed. Quote on quote. And i immediately thought my family was in danger. And so i was about ready to call my mom and dad and make sure everybody was okay. It was in the garage stall. I was like taken back and not really comprehending everything. But the way that i was communicated to me that everything was going on, it was it showed that the testament to him and the character he has. And how hes representing the sport. How he wants to stand up for whats wrong and wont toll rat racist acts. And i stand behind nascar. And like i said in the statement. If it happened again, it wouldnt change anything. They would do it over again. I never seen the noose. I never reported it. I was going to dinner. Let me jump in. No one is accusing you of doing anything wrong. The knuckle heads they are. You cant worry about that. Not anyone with sense. Fair minded people are not accusing you of doing anything wrong. You were reacting to what nascar what the head of nascar told you happened. Listen, this is how i feel about it. People can think what they want. Did nascar get it wrong . I shouldnt say that. Did they jump the gun maybe, yes. I am extremely happy with what i think most americans are, what nascar is doing. And i think in this environment and i have said it before, this hyper charged environment that we should all cut each other some slack. If nascar hadnt done the right thing and didnt act the way they did people would be criticizing them for moving slowly. And so, i think what they said was we are investigating. And they investigated. And found out that it wasnt a hate crime. So, did they perhaps act quickly . Yes. Did they get wrong, somewhat. I think that people will forgive them for the mistake because of the times that were in. And so i think that you have conducted yourself in amazingly. You shouldnt be worried about that. You and nascar should pick up and go on and continue to do what youre doing. You have the suppor
