How schools adjust to the new reality while trying to bring kids back in the fall, some of them. In a temporary extension of Unemployment Insurance for republicans and democrats still appear worlds apart. We are investigating mail in ballots, what is the evidence . Fry highlights from an experiment mailin ballots that might shed some light. Was the president serious about doing the election . What he is saying tonight. Welcome to fox news at night. Donald trump says he doesnt want to delay the election but he also doesnt want to wait months to get the results either. Is also taking a new tack saying that a protestant just concern for the future. It is already widespread across america. I dont have to wait two months and then find out the ballots are all missing in the election doesnt mean anything. The other reason mailin ballots are iffy, he claims they are right for foreign interference from russia and china. They say they get involved in our elections, this is easy. You can forge ballots, this is much easier for foreign countries. Governors across the country are planning to forge ahead with mail in ballots, sending out millions in a few weeks. Republican lawmakers are against delaying the election. Never in the history of the country, after wars, depressions in the civil war have we ever not had a federally scheduled election on time. We will find a way to do that again this november 3rd. The president promoted what is called convalescent plasma is a cure for civilly ill patients. It has been very effective and we need plasma from those that were infected and successfully recovered. The coronavirus taskforces new viral hotspots are beginning to emerge in parts of the midwest including indiana, ohio and kentucky. In addition to facemasks they invented a new piece of suggesting here to reduce transmission, goggles and face shields. I only heard of goggles for the first time one hour ago so i dont know. Shannon also on the president s mind, herman cain, the president called him a very special person and emphasized he believes china is to blame for his death from coronavirus. He reiterated his claim the government grossly mishandled be outbreak. Shannon controversial tweet this morning about the timing of this captured headlines all day, that was the plan all along because the media digging into the trouble with mail in ballots. The atlantic said this, the chaos in new york is warning dispersed largescale tests of mail in voting left one in 5 new yorkers to calm down. Cbs did an experiment with 100 ballots intended to replicate a male in voting process, here is part of what they found. When they went to collect everything, most of our votes seemed to be lost. We had to ask for a manager and explain ourselves before someone finally found our votes. We soon discovered a problem, miss sorted mail, two pieces of it. A birthday card from mike to ronnie. Shannon cmis cbs found 3 lost. In a close election that means a lot. Rick leventhal digging into more of a mail in ballot data tonight. Reporter anyone skeptical about warnings of major problems with mail in votes, if you think the system will work just fine you might look at the big apples recent experience. Imaging 20 third primary held during the pandemic officials were overwhelmed by absentee ballot request, they couldnt print them fast enough and the Postal Service didnt deliver many on time and more than a month after election day votes are still being counted some districts havent even started counting yet and more than 100,000 ballots have been invalidated, one of every 5. We are talking local race primaries with no politics at stake in the far smarter routable than the general election. Some candidates are suing the governor to get the cost ballots counted. We need to make sure we have a system where every vote counts. What we have seen in this primary is that doesnt exist yet but we need to make it better. Mail in voting is the situation. More problems in patterson, new jersey, close to 20 primary ballots were disqualified, four men charged with fraud after what appears to be widespread abuse of mail in ballots with hundreds of them found in a single bundle in one post office. In los angeles four more men resentenced on felony charges after a largescale scheme to bribe Homeless People on skid row with cash and cigarettes to forge signatures on ballot petitions and further just ration forms in 2016 and 2018. They were given suspended sentences of 3 years in prison and 3 years of probation. Trial runs our disaster. I dont want to see an election so many years ive been watching elections and they say the projected winner or the winner of the election. I dont want to see that take place in a week after november 3rd or a month or with litigation and Everything Else that can happen, years, years or you never even know who won the election. They are sending out hundreds of millions of universal male in ballots. The article in the atlantic suggests there isnt enough time to make improvements to the mail in Voting System in new york or anywhere else before november. Breaking tonight another twist in the legal saga of general Michael Flynn. The Dc Circuit Court of appeals has decided it will rehear the case over the Justice Departments recommendation that all charges against the former National Security adviser be dropped. That will happen august 11th in todays announcement follows a decision from a 3judge panel of the dc circuit to back the doj recommendation. The decision of district judge Emmett Sullivan and ordered him to permit the doj in the case. Shortly after the president s tweet on delaying the election secretary of state mike pompeo was in the Senate Hearing and landed in the middle of the controversy. The department of justice and others will make the determination. We all want and you do too make sure we have an election everyone is confident in. Are you indifferent to the date of the election. It should happen lawfully. Shannon so. Lets discuss with Fox News Contributor andrew mccarthy. Good to have you back. Congress has the power to set this the first tuesday after the first monday of november. They are the only ones who can change it. A wellknown jurist said this under the headline trump might try to postpone the election, that is unconstitutional, the latest tweet is about shifting, grounds for the immediate impeachment again by the house of representatives and his removal from office by the senate. The president seems to be saying this was my plan all along, wanted to get people talking about problems with mail in voting. I think the tweet was very ill advised. If he wanted to get people talking about potential of voter fraud talk about voter fraud, dont talk about delaying the election. Steve is a fine guy, smart lawyer. The idea that trumps tweet, which is actually going to hurt him immensely in the campaign but the suggestion that it was impeachable was almost a disservice and i think everybody ought to take a deep breath and recognize we dont have one election we have 50 state elections and the idea of talking down the election before it happens and suggesting the mail in process will delegitimize the results, lets play the game before we start to worry about how it is carried out. This might be a situation we dont know definitively right away, other elections have been close in the advent of mail in ballots which have grown in popularity that is a real possibility. Use our rick leventhals reporting and we saw this in new york, there are issues with mail in ballots, they say theres not a problem and that is scaremongering. That is not a full vetting of the story either. Now its not. And while ricks report was on i was thinking, 3 mistake, lets assume there was one, a problem with fraud. If that happened in new york but it turned out there was a 30 point difference in the two candidates in new york which is not inconceivable that would be a they minimis error, no one would care about it. This is why i come back to the point we have 50 different state elections, not one big National Election in the idea that 3 person could be do or die, that would be true if it was one big election but it is 50 elections. It may come down to how things go in 7 or 8 states and we may not have a problem with voter fraud in those 7 or 8 state so lets have the election rather than delegitimize it before we go in. Jillian 3 in florida or ohio could make all the difference. I want to touch on the Michael Flynn case. We have judge Emmett Sullivan, getting involved in bringing in outside parties in the dc circuit 3judge panel told him you got to dismiss the case, now the full court has decided the case will be 10 judges, 7 democratic appointees and 3 republican appointees will rehear the whole decision. What do you make of it . It is august 11th, coming up quick. It is not as simple as just how the courts views as far as republican and democrat appointees. I usually do think that is very relevant. Im not sure that is the case here. The courts order is interesting. What they basically want to hear from the party is is there no other way other than issuing an order . Shannon just a little no other adequate means. Im not sure they are saying that the panels reasoning was wrong to the extent they say the only course for the judge is to dismiss the case under the, that that is wrong i think they dont want to say judge sullivan, your acting law leslie, isnt there another way we can say take the case but this is the way it is supposed to come out rather than basically telling him it is fine if he wants to put the Justice Department on trial because i dont think the court of appeals said that in the president was by the chief judge and i dont think they want to walk away from that case. Shannon the only step left is the supreme court. We will see of general finger tuesday there. Thank you. We just lived through the worst economic decline in American History with secondquarter gross to missed product contracting 33 because of the coronavirus lockdown to our economy. Looking ahead some wall street strategists believe we are at the leading edge of the vshaped recovery. Part of the wall of worry, you always have at the beginning of a new economic expansion, feels no different than it did in 2009. We are having a vshaped recovery in the earnings regression. Shannon us stock futures point higher thanks to a blockbuster Earnings Report from apple. Everybody americans who are out of work, looking to capitol hill to come to terms on a new Coronavirus Relief package, the white house and gop leaders say they are trying to get democrats to targeted relief measures the democrats say the proposals are nonstarters. Congressional correspondent chad Program Updates is where it stands tonight. Reporter one thing is clear, the extra 600 a week coronavirus unemployment benefit is going to expire, the senate is done but next week Mitch Mcconnell is going to dare democrats to oppose an interim extension. Democrats refuse to budge for demand for 3 trillion bill, spent even 1 trillion in another measure. We are miles apart on a number of issues. There are more issues we are apart on than we are closer to consensus. Reserving the right to object. Democrats want efforts to reduce Unemployment Benefits on an interim basis. The game this morning, set on the floor he opposes continuing the 600 level. To temporarily renew benefits, an extra 200 a week. Chuck schumer argued mcconnells plan is a fig leaf for republicans. Our republican friends are paralyzed when they want to do something it is a stunt, not real negotiation they know wont pass. Mcconnell can blame them for stalling jobless benefits. This gives vulnerable republican senators facing competitive reelection bid like Susan Collins and Martha Mc Sally the chance to support renewed assistance. Any big coronavirus bill needs democratic votes. 20 members think weve done enough in some who regret what we did back in april and march. If it stayed, next weeks unemployment figure could spark the tough ones. Shannon thank you very much.

You see the tech on the screen. Will talk about whats happening, free speech in america, professor of jurisprudence at Princeton University robert george, good to have you back, professor. Such a joy to be back with you, shannon, thanks for inviting me back on the show. Shannon okay, so i want to read something a local report there from the b and b owners. What we are getti what we are getting is more negative. Not just your flying the Confederate Flag but youre a big it because you fly the Confederate Flag and some people accused the home of being billed by the confederacy but it was built by Union Workers but this is a private business, one of many friends into something perfectly legal and not offensive because people are so upset about everything. Combination of a very bad attitude and a great deal of ignorance, you would think d americans would be able to tell what is and isnt a Confederate Flag even if it resembles a Confederate Flag. You dont expect them to know what the norwegian flag looks like. That is ignorance but look how quickly people just turn to outrage and tried to shut these people down because they thought they had broken a rule against wrong think or wrong speaker wrong expression or whatever you want to call it. Friend in california, the music from one of his podcast was the battle cry of freedom. Some people mistook it for dixie, but the music was celebrating the self and therefore celebrating slavery and caused a big ruckus trying to get him disciplines by his university until finally they figured out itit wasnt dixie a all though you have a perfect right to play dixie if you wanted to but was the battle cry of freedom. The combination of malice and ignorance is really toxic. Shannon use that it is easy to defend the concept of freespeech that when out there that you dont like where the dominant groupthink doesnt like that is where it gets real about what people think about defending speech but we dont have the First Amendment to protect things that are wonderful and rosy but we all like. N it is out there to protect we dont have to agree with it that doesnt mean we get to silence it. Exactly right. I have often spoken defense of the freespeech rights of people. The university under pressure discipline mark lamont helfer statements i strongly disagreed with but i nevertheless a conservative leading a protest in defense of the freespeech rights of the very progressive Mark Lamont Hill because he has as much freespeech right as i have or anybody else, same with my colleague peter singer whose views on life issues are abominable, he supports the killing of unborn children and the permissibility of the killing of newborn, in certified infanticide is a horror in my view. I fight with all the energy in my body and yet i recognize as reprehensibleas as i think that view is he has a right to free speech, the First Amendment is for all of us, not the property of the left, not the property of the right, not the conservatives, liberals, it is everybodys right to free speech, we need to protect thnd freespeech rights and stand up for freespeech rights of those we oppose. Shannon i want your take on this, the federalist has a headline, why elected joe biden would make the culture war worse, the culture war will likely escalate under a biden presidency, the one thing democrats will agree on. Fanning the flames will be a way to unite democrats who hate the rich and democrats who are the rich. H. Not sure about democrats who allegedly hate the rich. There seem to be a lot of rich, democrats, the big corporations seem to back the progressives when it comes to culture war issues and big moral questions of our time whether it is abortion and the right to life, marriage and the family, religious liberty, you name it, the big money seems to come down on the lefts side so im not sure about this, i guess it is a myth that democrats are the party of the rich when it comes to social issues, the rich are on the side of the democrats and progressives. O is for all espeech including those who offended the most, thank yo
