Moment. Jeff paul is live in carson city. Well get reaction with matt schlepp. We begin this hour with Griff Jenkins in georgia where all the action is. Live in atlanta. Griff, good afternoon. Hey, bill. Good afternoon. Yeah, seems like the epicenter of the election is in georgia. The march for trump bus tour going through 13 states was just here. Were outside the governors mansion. The rain is coming down. While here, theyre chanting stop the steal which they believe is voter fraud and chanting where is kemp . A reference to Governor Kemp. They want him more involved. They started the day at the capitol where the president s legal team was yesterday making the case to the state legislature to overturn the results. Now that all as Vice President pence any moment should be on the ground in savannah. He was in the atlanta area here where i am earlier at the cdc holding a roundtable that included senators purdue and loeffler. Now, Governor Kemp was going to meet kemp Governor Kempwas going to meet Vice President pence on the ground. But the Communications Director just tweeting in the last few minutes due to a family emergency, Governor Kemp will not be able to greet the Vice President in savannah as planned. Now, part of Vice President pences mission is to galvanize trumpsupporters and some of the march for trump folks that we talked to in the last hour, well, its not entirely sure that they will be supporting purdue and loeffler. Heres what they said. Listen. We dont care about january 5. January 5 will take care of itself. Right now we have this election we have to fight for here. Now november 3 that just happened several weeks ago, weve got to get a resolution there first. Were not focused on january 5. Greg, youre supporting purdue and loeffler . At this point in time, im not sure. Very interesting, bill. One thing for sure. Vice president pence here very soon in savannah. Tomorrow in valdosta, georgia, the president will be urging supporters to support purdue and loeffler 32 days from now. The combined spending of all four candidates, campaigns and outside groups, more than 300 million. And going higher. Thanks, griff. Outside the governors mansion. Keep an eye on the trump campaign. Theyre asking a judge to overturn the Election Results for delay certifying that states electors. They claim to have proof of fraud. Jeff paul has more in carson city, nevada. Bill, were standing by, waiting for some sort of decision to possibly come down today from the judge here in carson city just outside the courthouse. Sort of downtown area. Obviously both sides, dems and republicans on both sides anxious to hear what that judge decides. So are Trump Supporters. They were out here in full force yesterday carrying signs, flags, chanting, honking their horns and republicans and democrats squared off inside the courtroom. The judge listened to both sides to make their case with the testimony lasting for about 2 1 2 hours. The judge really not making any comments that would lead anyone to see which side hes leaning towards. The trump team wants the nevada Election Results thrown out on the basis of voter fraud. Dems say this is a desperate claim that will go against the will of the people. The evidence that we have submitted is compelling. It shows that Election Officials planned and implemented an election system that would be susceptible to fraud, that it would ignore the best practices developed over the years and skew meaningful observations. Evidence of examination is built on nothing more than speculation, conspiracy theories and a fundamental misunderstanding of the electoral process in nevada. None of this comes close to satisfying the burden of proof. None of this is sufficient to overturn the results of the election. Bill, however it turns out, you can bet the house that with almost 100 certainty that whoever comes out on the losing side, maybe a Trump Supporters will probably appeal this to the Supreme Court down the street. Bill . Bill jeff paul hanging in there. This is matt schlepp, chris hahn, former aid to chuck schumer. Hello, gentlemen. Good day to all of you. Matt, you were in nevada yesterday. Can you win that case . You just heard that gentleman say breathtaking relief requires breathtaking evidence. Yeah. Thats what the legal team and the other team on the ground in nevada, really a great team, volunteers and lawyers, thats what they came up with. Bill, ive been in politics my entire adult life. When i hit the ground, i never thought i would see this level of provable illegal ballots in the count. Please understand, Everybody Needs to understand this, the judge has spreadsheets with real names and real addresses of people, over 40,000 people that voted in two states. Over 20,000 people that voted without being a legal resident of nevada. With people that voted who are green card holders, every category that you can imagine, the judge has in his hands. Look, i assume hes a fairminded judge. I sat through the proceedings. You can never predict as robert knows what a judge will do. I do think that anybody even my political opponents in the democratic party, we should all agree, if youre not legally allowed to vote, you shouldnt be in the count. That needs to be remedied or what youre doing is reducing the civil rights of everybody that voted legally. Its a very simple concept. We must stand by it. Bill before i get to chris hahn, robert, address that case that matt is laying out in nevada. Its a fair point that hes making. But you know, recognize that its a very heavy burden and the question is what is the remedy. Are you going to be able toin other words pin the tale on the donkey to say heres our evidence of fraud and these particular ballots should be excluded. In other words, if you can prove fraud and obviously theres a lot of bad things that appear to have gone on, the question is, you know, how are how is a judge going to sort out whether ballots can be invalue dated and can you identify those ballots and invalidate them and can you do this in an appeal and to so before december 8, which is tuesday. Thats the certification date with regard to state electors. I dont know if that can be done on time. Bill lets bring in chris hahn here. Its about 30,000 votes in nevada. How are you measuring this now . I measure this as biden won nevada and matt, i bet you the entire budget of cpac that biden won nevada. No matter what happens, biden won nevada. He will be president january 20th. Its time for the president and the supporters to stop grifting people that are believing this lie that theres some sort of widespread fraud across this country. It does not exist and quite frankly i feel bad for republicans in georgia who are trying to campaign on january 5. The president will go down there tomorrow and hes going to complain about the Election Results and make it harder for them to get people out to vote in that Runoff Election january 5. Quite frankly, thats the best thing that could happen to democrats. Bill lets one moment. Well see how mike pence makes that argument in a moment in savannah. Matt, address that. Whether its georgia or nevada and the marker i lay down in 33,000 i think its 33,500. Youre right. Youre right. You always get the numbers right. First of all, its nevada. Nobody is winning nevada. In nevada, what we had is an election. I agree with robert. Theres a very interesting question about standard to remedy illegal ballots. What Everybody Needs to understand, talk about the facts. We have never in our history had reckless unsolicited mailin ballots in all of these states run by blue governors to the point that in the state of nevada ill give you an example. 93,000 ballots were made that the election commissioner knew if they were voted on that they were not legal votes. He sent them anyway. Thousands of those ballots were returned. I agree. When we say what were going to do to remedy this, my question back to robert and to the lawyers that bring the question of legal standards is, what youre essentially arguing or what people that oppose it argue is that fraud is going to happen, the more you have mailin voting, the higher amounts of fraud you have. Bill i got a minute left. Heres the problem, matt bill hang on a second, chris. Robert, your name was invoked. Go ahead from the legal standpoint. Thats my point. It doesnt require very close election and this one was in certain states and this particular state being one of them, it doesnt require a showing of widespread fraud. It just required enough of a showing of fraud to pin a batch of doubt on ballots sufficiently large that it would change the outcome. Thats the test here. I dont disagree with the test. Were all in agreement on that. The question is can we get resolution before tuesday. Bill 15 seconds, chris. Yes. So right. Has to be a conspiracy to commit fraud widely, which theres no evidence of that at all. Quite frankly, what republicans really dont want are people voting in large numbers because its proven now that they really cant win when they do. Bill there will be a postmortem on the mails in. Got to run. Thanks, matt. Nice to see you again, ray. Thanks for coming back. Nice to be with you. Bill in a moment, Small Businesses the backbone of america. Now many are struggling to stay open in the ongoing pandemic. Watch. Enough is enough. We cant keep taking this sitting down. Theres too many lives at stake here. Theres frustration because, you know, its really hard to keep a business going when good things are happening constantly. Bill in a moment, steve and austin take up the issue on a friday. In california, governor newsome announcing the strictest restrictions since the spring. Is there hope 0 on the horizon . Operation warp speed making a lot of headlines as Many Americans may start getting vaccinated this month. How is that going to work . Details coming up.

Calling a new york race for andrew garbarino. Its not a flip but adds to the head count. Republicans plus 9 including republican that leads by 12 votes in another race in the state of new york. From iowa, a democrat there is appealing her loss to the u. S. House. So stay tuned. Meantime, the v. P. Through faith, traditions and hearts of the American People, especially our children. To be as we are, maybe, bob, 1 1 2 weeks away from what will be the likely approval of the first Coronavirus Vaccine for the American People. Its inspiring the people of this country. Bill a major headline. Vice president pence say america could be 10 days away from a vaccine. Doc, good day to you. Ten days . Is it real . Going to happen . Its real. Its going to happen. Theres 50 million doses rather than 100 million for us here in the u. S. The u. K. Will get another 50 million. We have to go through a very lengthy process for our safety through the fda, which will have its Advisory Board meeting next week. Im very excited about that. That is for the pfizer. Moderna will be the following week. A very excellent committee, bill. That will make sure that were all safe. Bill let me make a point very clear. Pfizer says they can produce about a billion doses in the year 2021. But late yesterday they cut the dosage in december in half. So you have this issue of the supply chain here. Can we solve that or is this something that were going to have to deal with in the new year as well, doctor . Well, theyre going to solve it. Like Everything Else in life, the first few doses, the first if i supply chain issues, the distribution, the acquisition of freezers to keep the vaccine cold. Getting nurses and doctors to administer it, getting a big enough place to have it administered, all of those things are issues that have to be covered by people in local areas in order to administer this vaccine. Were going to be seeing airplane hangers, convention centers, large field hospitals, everybody to develop this. This is like a wartime effort. Bill no doubt. Youre right about that. Steve hahn, head of the fda says its realistic that 20 million americans could be immunized by new years day. How about that . Thats amazing. Im be very interesting to see how he pulls that off. Id think more like april 1 would be realistic. Bill really . Yeah. Bill quite a different. That is three, fourmonth lag, doc. For the general public. Remember, we have to immunize thousands of healthcare workers, elderly, people that are challenged that are firemen, police officers, all of these essential personnel first. So the general public more likely going to be march or april. So were going to bill i get it. Lets see if that happens. Heres the Vice President , former Vice President joe biden yesterday talking about a mask order that he will try to initiate. Roll this here now. The first day im inaugurated to say im going to ask the public for 100 days to mask. Just 100 days to mask. Not forever. 100 days. I think well see a significant reduction. Bill so thats the third week of january. That takes you to february, march and april. Does that make a difference . Yeah, thats going to make somewhat of a difference. But i challenge the public to wear a mask by mandate. Everybody is totally fatigued. The people that i see in the hospital and on the street are not Wearing Masks. We do have a mandate here in the hospital that you must not only wear a mask but also eye covering. That is most hospitals in the metropolitan area of new york. Now, the problem is when you say to the general public you must all wear a mask, does that mean Wearing Masks outdoors while walking in the street . Not being socially distant and keep your hands washed . Its a challenge, bill. Its not even. Bill thanks, doc. Were watching two events right now waiting on the Vice President , mike pence in georgia. The former Vice President , joe biden now speaking in wilmington, delaware about the jobs report and more. Drop in here. Start to build back a better future. Theres no time to lose. Millions of people have lost their jobs or had their hours slashed, lost Health Insurance or in danger of losing Health Insurance. One in every six renters is behind in rent. One in four Small Businesses cant keep their doors open. Theres a growing gap in black and latino unemployment and the gap remains much too large. Its deeply troubling that last months drop in unemployment was driven by people dropping out of the job market. Not because of more people. They lost hope of finding a job and taking full time care giving responsibilities as Child Centers remain closed and children learn remotely. Over the past three months, 2. 3 million more people are longterm unemployed. Meaning 23 weeks or more. By far the largest increase on record. This is a dire jobs report. A snapshot, i might remind you, up to mid november. Before the surge in covid cases we predicted, many predicted and the deaths rise that weve seen in december as we head into a very dark winter ahead. For example, since october cities are down 21,000 educators. Just as schools need more help in fighting against the pandemic. Couple days ago i spoke with School Crossing guard, a server, a Restaurant Owner and a stage hand. Good people. Honorable people. Decent hardworking americans across the country. Reminding me of my dad who lost a job in scranton and moved our family to delaware outside of wilmington. Used to say, you heard me say it before, joey, i dont expect the government to solve my problems, but i expect them to understand my problems. The folks im talking about, the folks out there are not looking for a handout. They just need help. Theyre in trouble through no fault of their own. Nothing they did caused them to have hours cut or lose their job or drop out of the market. They need us to understand were in a crisis. Need to come together as a nation. Need the congress to act and act now. If congress and President Trump fail to act by the end of december, 12 million americans will lose Unemployment Benefits that they rely on. Merry christmas. Unemployment benefits allowing them to keep food on the table, keep the lights on and heat on. Pay their bills. Emergency paid leave will end. Moratorium on evictions will expire. States will lose the vital tools that they need to pay for covid testing and Public Health. Put yourself in that position anybody listening. Laying awake at night wondering what will happen tomorrow. Its going to be harder for states to keep children and educators safe in schools. Try to provide assistance to keep Small Businesses alive. States and cities are facing large, large budget shortfalls this year. Again through no fault of their own. They laid off more than a million workers. Even more teac
