watching is desantis crowned himself king of the magic kingdom today and resorts. he's signing a bill that takes away disney's special district that it had there. and it seems to be a response to disney disagreeing and perhaps even mischaracterizing some of desantis' proposals and legislation. what do you think about that? >> pliolitically it's a winner r the governor. in florida, it's politically popular there as well. i don't think in terms of the politics, the raw republican primary politics, it's a winning issue for him. he's going to continue to fight on those things, as kirsten alludes to, you should stay out of those fights. the government should be less intrusive, not more intrusive. in these instances i think desantis is saying, if you want to invest in esg stocks, we're
nontraditional hiring sign in front of a pizza shop is getting mixed reaction. the owner's daughter says recent hires have not had a good work ethic, but the sign is meant to be a joke. the sign has gotten them more customers. those are the headlines, back to you. >> ainsley: thank you, ashley, we are here at asbury university, where the spirit of god touched so many, it is alive on this campus. we're in kentucky, people have been worshipping here for 24/7, we are here with kirsten and khalil akeke. thank you for being here. what year are you? >> i'm not a student here, senior in high school. >> ainsley: even better, you live in the area and coming by? >> southern ohio two hours,a
they are going to have to stand up and fight, and so i don't -- i anticipate that this is going to be a good issue for him, and insolvency is right around the corner, and millennials and younger don't believe that they will see a penny of social security, and so what do we have to do when it is running out, and we have not fixed it? we have the ability to fix it, and if we can stop using it as a political weapon, we have the ability to fix it so that it is there for those when they need it, for americans when they need it. they have paid for it, and they can't go back to do it all over again. >> and kirsten, mia makes a great point there, and any honest folks in washington will speak honestly and say, insolvency in a number of years, and we have to do something about it, and this is what rick scott was at least raising in the document of sunsetting some
that doesn't mean that, like, you just get rid of it tomorrow. but there should be some acknowledgment. i think we all need to kind of come together and acknowledge that this is not working. you know, this is not normal. and we can't go on like. this and so, we need -- and we have had police reform as long as i've been alive. and it's not making any difference. we've sunk millions of dollars on police reform. the problem is the system is rotten. and it's a culture that protects other people, that allows this kind of stuff to go on. i just shudder to think of how many people have lost loved ones and think they died in a car crash and actuallywere killed by the police. >> that's an important point, kirsten, in particular to you can quibble about that people might have a retort to the idea of changing policing. the idea of building the plane while you're flying in the plane. knowing that there still a need for law enforcement. and there could be parallel solutions. absolutely. but the point of what we've been hearing before.
but it also omits the fact that the police interaction involves nine minutes of a man murdering another man by putting his knee on his neck, right. it's factual information. but there's sort of a major detail left out of it. and the problem here is mitigated or fixed by these body cameras. now i'm not saying that body cameras -- and we talked about this the other night, they're a blessing and a curse, right. they prove and disprove some things. but at least you have a realtime narrative of what happened. and having a push to make this material available to the public corrects some of this misinformation. you see it in this case. you saw it in george floyd. and you'll keep seeing it, unless there is a -- >> and by the, way we're gonna keep seeing videos. because there will be more videos released were seeing in the days to come. we have not seen everything. and frankly, that was one of the comments that the da seemed to speak about. this is not going to be the totality of all the case. but the larger conversation of sergeant dorsey and kirsten and elliot, largely about a lack of trust.
she can't be trusted. she's got to go. she coddled, she mitigated, and as far as i'm concerned, she mitigated and minimized their behavior by allowing them the pleasure of serving on a special unit like the scorpions. that's generally reserved for tenured officers, senior officers. and to have him out there willie nilly, knowing that they are miscreants, is abominable. >> look, everyone saw on the screen there, kirsten, i want to turn to you, to the types of reprimands we're talking about, failure to document role and attention and beyond. and there have them in the charges. but to the point of the idea that there are minor violations, i would note, suspensions without pay, a written reprimand, failing to fill out a required form after using physical force, not obviously something we've not seen in this horrific video. having said that, to her larger point, what do you make of the
as an independent. there's going to be a democrat running for her seat. arizona congressman reuben diego, which then 24 hours of watching his campaign, raised over 1 million dollars. any so far received over 36,000 donations. congressman guy go, democrat of arizona, credit for that you -- joins me now. congressman, talk about how you are making. noises but now it's official when you look at the dynamics of your state, democrats doing very well in these races. but winning by very, very narrow margins in some cases. how do you dispel concerns that your entrance into this could do precisely what the worry would be for democrats about the vote and end up electing a republican? >> we see it in the numbers. you see it if you just walk around arizona. kristen sinema is not popular with anyone. the only for democrats to keep this race, is for a strong democrat to run and win. kirsten running this on our own,
joins me now. congressman, talk about how you are making. noises but now it's official when you look at the dynamics of your state, democrats doing very well in these races. but winning by very, very narrow margins in some cases. how do you dispel concerns that your entrance into this could do precisely what the worry would be for democrats about the vote and end up electing a republican? >> we see it in the numbers. you see it if you just walk around arizona. kristen sinema is not popular with anyone. the only for democrats to keep this race, is for a strong democrat to run and win. kirsten running this on our own, with a weak democrat, no matter what there always be a democrat running. it assures the republicans are going to win. she's lost support from everybody, not because she's independent, not because she was a democrat or anything like that. because you batten arizona long ago. she hasn't had an open town hall in at least three years, that we could see right. now she negotiates for pharmaceutical companies against the seniors that are driving down to mexico to pick up cheaper drug prices than in the united states. she negotiates and lobbies for wall street hedge fund managers to make sure they keep getting tax cuts. and on and on again, as well as general disrespect to a lot of voters. where she is right now, is a guaranteed third place losing candidate. and we need to have a strong candidate that actually talking to voters, talking to arizona voters, respecting, them and talking to them about the real american dream. about how we need to work
