the bottom line is there's not much different between debbie wasserman schultz and canova. because of her political savvy, wasserman schultz is the best choice. your response? >> it was a strange endorsement. everything is said about me was very positive. it had a lot of things to say negative about wasserman schu z schultz, about the mistakes at the dnc for instance. it's strange to hear there's not much difference between the two of us. she's raised $1 million from political action committees, another $1 million from wealthy donors who contributed $2,000 or more. my contributions, 76% of them are folks who have given $200 or less. it's not just fund-raising. she's raising money for big corporate interest and she's been voting their way for years and she supports payday lenders here in south florida. that's a big issue. she supports these terrible trade deals. she supports private prisons and takes money from private prisons in florida. leapeds the country in the most private prisons in the system. she takes money from big sugar companies that have contributed to the envir

david: debbie wasserman schultz we can't leave without talking about her. she is up against a bernie supporter. a lot of people say the dnc leaked emails that really hurt her, lost her chairmanship of the dnc are we going to see bernie's revenge today? >> i don't think so. i think debbie wasserman schultz is going to pull it out but at the end of the day she is in a dogfight down there. it is clear that democrat rank-and-file, grassroots democrats are not happy with debbie wasserman schultz especially quasi-rigging the primary for hillary clinton. david: the florida gop chairman, blaze, good to see you. >> most welcome. melissa: quasi, i don't know. concerns growing over cyber attacks by suspected russian hackers as voter registration systems in arizona and illinois were targeted. senate minority leader harry reid is asking the fbi to investigate the threat that the russian government poses to the election saying there are major concerns surrounding the link between donald trump and russia. david: we have breaking earnings to report on h&r block, posting a

he outraised debbie wasserman schultz. it has given him some credibility and it has allowed him to open up a lot of offices and bring in a lot of paid staff including canvassers going door-to-door. onhas allowed him to be broadcast television even in the expensive fort lauderdale market. >> who is he and what does he bring to the table? >> he's a professor of law and public finance at southeastern university down here in fort lauderdale. he is a newcomer to political campaigns. it never before run for office. he comes from the bernie sanders move in. he was a big supporter of bernie sanders. he supported him before sanders really took off in the presidential campaign this year. that has helped fuel his candidacy. in many ways, it has been like a repeat of the sanders-hillary clinton campaign. againstun a campaign wasserman schultz similar to the campaign sanders ran against the clinton. says wasserman schultz is too much of a patron of corporate interests and does what her corporate campaign contributors want. he has come

replacing debbie wasserman schultz. is this just the start of a house cleaning over there? >> it sounds like the start of a housekeeping. at least that's what sources are telling cnn. our jeff zeleny has gotten some information on that suggesting that it is the beginning of the house cleaning. it doesn't suggest to us how many people are being shuffled, moved around. but it appears that the dnc thinks there needs to be changes made, wolf. >> let me -- joe johns, thanks very much. i want to get one or story in. the centers for disease control and miami-dade county officials are ramping up their efforts right now to control the spread of the zika virus. right now the focus is in one miami neighborhood. the number of cases caused by local mosquitos rose to 14 people, up from the four announced on friday. that prompted the cdc to issue a travel advisory for pregnant women telling them to stay away from that neighborhood. experts think there will be more cases to come. >> anywhere in the u.s. where this mosquito is present, there is a risk. that's why we need to track. that's wh

also debbie wasserman schultz is facing a bernie sanders-backed candidate. joining me to dig deeper into these races and more, my nbc colleague kelly o'donnell who is in arizona following the mccain rairx and mark caputo in florida. thanks for joining me. >> thank you. >> kelly, let me start with you and your conversation with senator john mccain. obviously, he's up in the polls, but he's dealing with that very personal attack. what were your takeaways from your conversation with him? >> well, john mccain looks at this race and says to himself and to the voters that he's trying to prove his record and his long history with the people of arizona. again and again saying to me the people here know me. they know what i stand for and what i've done and to try to fend off those challenges. for mccain, this is a challenge from the hard right. that is not new territory for him. his primary challenges have usually been of those most critical from the far right. and so in this case, he is relying on a very difficult sort of maneuver. he's got to try to keep conservati

the right thing was that debbie wasserman schultz resigned. i think it was appropriate. people have been fired. i think that is appropriate. we have a woman of real integrity and strength -- she will not be pushed around in ed: i want to talk about what might be in front of you when you go back -- the zika funding. senator warren: i cannot believe this -- here we are with a crisis that is literally getting worse every single day that -- this is not partisan. mosquito don't know the difference between a democrat and a republican. plan -- what will it take to respond to zika before it hits the u.s.? we have to really put money into research, get our scientists working on a vaccine, working on a treatment. we had push the money out into public health. so come at the local level, people can deal with mosquitoes said, bottom line, what is it going to cost us? and they said $1.9 billion. democrats said let's do that, we want $1.9 billion. republicans say no. what is your alternative plan here? finally, we keep talking and they say, tell you what, $1.1 life preservers. democrat

hillary clinton, as you know, she's backing debbie wasserman schultz. she -- hillary clinton won your district by a huge, huge 37-point margin. how do you combat that? do you believe you have a realistic chance of beating congresswoman debbie wasserman schultz tomorrow? >> well, we know we do. hillary clinton and bernie sanders are not on the ballot. in fact, back in march when we had the presidential primary, bernie sanders didn't even have a field operation in our district and i think he only had one field office in all of south florida. you compare that with our operation. we have the largest field operation in the entire country for any house campaign. we have four field offices in the district, dozens of field organizers and hundreds of volunteers. and we're knock iing on 10,000 doors a week right now and having conversations with the voters and it's making all the difference. the very few polls that have been out already, they showed a tight race but there are also polls that are only surveying likely voters. what we're finding is a lot of unlikel

congresswoman debbie wasserman schultz facing re-election battles today. how the presidential race is impacting the primaries today at we are watching. we've got live reports on the ground. >>> plus, are russian hackers trying to break into voter databases in arizona and illinois? the nationwide warning coming from the fbi. >>> and the latest polls showing a majority of voters still dislike both donald trump and hillary clinton. we'll have the very latest on those poll numbers when we assemble a panel to discuss. we'll be right back. using 60,000 points from my chase ink card i bought all the framework... wire... and plants neededo give my shop... a face... no one will forget. see what the power of points can do for your business. learn moret chase.com/ink this is todd hardy. a fitness buff, youth baseball coach-and lung cancer patient. the day i got the dinosis, i was just shocked. the rgeon in dallas said i needed to have the top left lobe of my lung removed. i wanted to know what my other options were. and i found that at cancer treatment centers of ame

adam: she got ousted from the dnc, florida congresswoman debbie wasserman schultz fighting to stay in the house of representatives. her challenger, the challenger for the florida seat that she currently holds, tim canova, filed a federal complaint against the congresswoman alleging she illegally utilized dnc resources to fund her campaign largely on the leaked dnc e-mails which cost her the job. back in may, the dnc finance director wrote not cool, when he heard of senator sanders' efforts to share fund-raising money with canova. with me to talk about all, this tim canova, the democrat running against wasserman schultz for congress in florida, the primary coming up there. not cool doesn't seem to be the smoking gun in your allegations against her. do you have more e-mails that would support your case? >> plenty of e-mails to support the case. i'm surprised that wasserman schultz wants to rely on two words in one e-mail. if you do a search of the wikileaks dnc file, you'll see that my name comes up dozens and dozens and dozens of times. this wasn't two words that she sent by e-mail. th

john mccain, marco rubio and debbie wasserman schultz and others trying to hold on to their seats today. the trick, of course, is to win the hearts of the fired up deeply partisan base republicans facing the tougher trick this time around and they distanced themselves from some of the campaign's controversial policies and statements. the latest, which we'll get to in a moment, involves a sur gate. let's start with the primaries. reports from tee key contests across the country. nbc's kelly o'donnell is in phoenix where john mccain is hoping for a blowout in his arizona primary. kelly, what is it that makes this race different for john mccain. mccain is in the vice grip of being a nominee himself, wanting to support the nominee long before it was known that donald trump would be the person, not wanting to go back on that and yet at the same time, having differences with how donald trump has conducted himself, the things he said. so the environment plays large here. often there are office holders in washington where they are in a phase where there are many voters who just say washington,

wasserman schultz. she said, settle down, people. here she is once again talking to the newspaper down in florida. those weren't boos as it turns out, were they? listen. >> there were about 300 people at the breakfast and the overwhelming majority of the people in the room were enthusiastic supporters of me and my message. [ laughter ] >> i don't think so is i don't think so. you be the judge. >> i talked to one of the guys in the crowd, one of the 300 and he said it was so embarrassing for her because the whole room was booing or a majority of them were booing. >> of course. she tried to say they were not all for the florida delegation, except it was a delegation breakfast and that was the only people allowed in. >> she just showed up. >> booing is the new yay. >>> all right, let's hand it over to heather who is going to start off with a horrific, awful story. >> unfortunately, really is. coming out of california this morning. good morning to you, 35 minutes after the hour. some terrifying moments for

[laughter] >> and sanders? >> yes. >> are you bernie bros >> i love bernie and no i upon not a bernie bro. they are dangerous and devisive. >> is that a bernie or bust. >> who are you voting for hillary. >> she doesn't deserve my vote and she has to anguish it. >> if hillary is a nominee will you wear a hillary jumpsuit. >> no, i can't. >> and hillary almost wore that. >> i hope >> what are you doing out here. >> i am here telling people to vote for jesus. >> what? >> what? >> what do you think america needs to do to defeat isis. love each other. the world needs love. >> you think the wall on the southern border would work? >> no. >> i think a wall around trump tower would work. >> why did the democrats put a wall. >> they are afraid of us. >> we'll not build the wall. >> more are going back than coming in. and i think the economy is not that great. >> you sup

congresswoman debbie wasserman-schultz looking for her seventh term in the house. she stepped down as chair of the dnc last month after lieaked e-mails. phil keating, let's start with the democrats. >> wasserman-schultz is facing her toughest primary challenge. for years, maybe even decades, never this strong of a candidate. 90% of the money that's been spent against her has come in from out of state. pry merely from the feel the bern crowd. the congresswoman has been forced to spend about three million of her own dollars, mostly in tv ad buys, versus previous years where she's coasted to victory. hillary clinton supports her, but after she had to resign as chairman of the democratic national convention, political newbie and law professor tim kenoba believes wasserman-schultz is vulnerable and can be beaten many this democratic primary. he is backed by bernie sanders and that's why many people are observing this race in florida as a proxy rematch of the sanders-clinton fight all yearlong. >> what about marco rubio? >> well, a lot of republicans in florida are dissa

she said she does not understand why hillary clinton gave former dnc chair debbie wasserman-schultz a role in her campaign. joining me noise of former massachusetts senator and former trump supporter -- and trump supporter, scott brown. >> even a stopped clock is right twice a day. i agree with elizabeth warren. it shows the system is rigged against bernie sanders. the problem is she is a part of the broken system. she as a leader of the democratic party should have known what was going on. her failure to endorse bernie sanders is evidence that she sold out. remember in her speech they were saying we trusted you, we trusted you. if you were home listening you didn't hear it. it threw her off in the beginning, then she plowed right through. with debbie wasserman-schultz, remember at the republican national convention, she was smarmy and condescending about us needing help. what she did was wrong and those boos far outweighed the yeas. it reminds everybody how she hurt bernie sanders. adam: you bring up debbie wasserman-schultz breaking her silence and she wanted to set the record strai

many upset with the way debbie wasserman schultz ran the primary. i have heard from some that didn't like debbie wasserman schultz to begin with, always thought she was too strong here. the first primary challenge she faced in 12 years in office. still well ahead, but they're thinking they might take another shot at her in two years. i asked her about that this morning. take a look at what she had to say. concerned that if the margin isn't huge today that somebody will take a look two years from now, maybe your same opponent, and take another shot. >> one race at a time. i take every race seriously. this race is no different, no matter whether i'm on the ballot in a primary or general election. you know, you have to have a healthy respect for the people who you're asking to support you. which i always do. >> reporter: so congresswoman spending a lot of time saying she did not lose sight of her district while she was doing her national duties. a lot of support here. and she clearly is the favorite heading into tonight, craig. >> alex, thank you. alwa

debbie wasserman schultz has something in common with my opponent. she supports the payday loan industry. i don't know if you read that " article times recently, but in missouri, we have more payday loan operations than walmart, starbucks, and mcdonald's put together. that is because of people like my opponent, and others like debbie wasserman schultz. the other thing is, neither one of them won a debate in front of the people they represent. especially, i don't know how many years she has been in, when you have had an incumbent family for 48 years, the people do deserve to have an open debate. [applause] ms. rojas: just to address the magical e-mail list i think it , is obviously, it is crucial that we know that. at the same time, the way that i because brand-new congress does not have that list. we have to earn every supporter we get. we actually have to go out. the reason why we are going to be in washington and philadelphia is because we are doing a 100-city tour to go out and talk to people. and to find out what they are saying. it obviously wou

[applause] obviously if we don't pull it out, i will get some sleep tomorrow. it's been a long road. january 7 is when i jumped in. i had $15,000 of my own money i put into this false we kept praying and we had a lot of faith in ourselves and the grassroots. i kept saying the grassroots will be there for us, help will be there along the way and there were a light of tough times during this past eight months. i remember waking up to find out the president had endorsed my opponent. [booing] os for theking for bo president, i'm just saying it's not everyday you wake up and realize the president is against you. [laughter] i remember saying this would be a good day and it was, our best fundraising day of the campaign at that point. [applause] our best fundraising day because the grassroots all over this country was upset about it because they saw what was at stake, a contest betw

wasserman schultz/10 canova -- debbie wasserman schultz/tim canova primary. host: thank you very much for being with us. guest: great to be here. we will have the only debate between representative debbie wasserman schultz and her democratic challenger in tuesday's primary, tim canova, tonight at 8:35 pm eastern here on c-span, as our coverage of campaign 2016 continues. the senate today held a pro forma session, as is usual in pro forma sessions, no legislative business was conducted. republican senator james lankford of oklahoma was the presiding officer for today's session. he sent out this tweet. in washington, d.c., today to gavel the senate order and prevent the president from making recess appointments." >> one month a year we don't actually vote. i've been traveling all over the state to see people literally on every corner of the state. today is the one day i'm back in for august. all of us are broken up. of us isee days, one back in washington, d.c., holding the president accountable to make sure we don't have a recess appointment ring this time p -

also in florida, debbie wasserman schultz faces stiff competition from bernie sanders-backed tim con 0. va. >>> the security of your vote is in question after a possible russian hacking of some voter systems. the fbi sounded the alarm about the potential breach of voter registration data of two states. nbc news says u.s. intelligence officials blame russian-based hackers. >> states should be aware their systems are vulnerable and probably being scanned and surreptitiously attacked. >> russisuspected russian hacke have been at the center of the political landscape. debbie wasserman schultz was forced to resign during the democratic national convention. >>> 5:13 and the controversy continues over an anthem protest by 49ers quarterback colin kaepernick. he stayed seated during the national anthem before friday night's preseason game in san francisco. he said he was protesting systemic racism. he said he'll continue to do so until he sees real change. nbc 10 caught up with several eagles players who weighed in on the protest. >> support people that support their opinion. i have no proble

[applause] >> from sunrise, florida representative wasserman schultz >> debbie wasserman schultz defeated tim canova. he spoke to supporters. >> good evening everybody. it is so wonderful to see everybody here. i am somewhat aware of the election returns. it is not over until it is over. i can start off by saying i am not ready to concede anything yet. [applause] >> thank you. a lot of the absentee votes have been cast, we are down to about 6000 votes. we need to win today by a landslide, and we need a good turnout to overcome the 6000 votes. i am in weight and see -- wait and see mode. i will talk about what we accomplished. we came out of nowhere. tomorrow, whether we pull out and upset here or not, or if we win tonight by long odds, the general election against the republic -- against a democrat in a republican area. and if we do not pull it off tonight, i get some sleep tomorrow. [laughter]

that week to tip it off debbie wasserman schultz resigned. the chairwoman of the dnc. because of these leaked e-mails that were very, very embarrassing. as a matter of fact, i was told by a top source that debbie wasserman schultz took so long to leave because she was negotiating a private jet home from the convention. they didn't want to give it to her and she was insisting she get it. also, a ton of bernie drama. we know what happened. bernie supporters came to philly already angry and after the leaks of rigging the system against him, they were ready for battle. and bernie didn't really give them much to battle for. he kind of folded bah then donald trump makes a joke and everybody piles on. he says something about wanting russia to help with the e-mails and get these 30,000 that were deleted. everybody knew he was joking but the media piled on and then he dominated the second half of the week. the real story, though, the media buried the protesters. nothing was covered out there except for fox news. now, the speakers, like i said before, a lot of victims, sad stori

as debbie wasserman schultz is projected to win her florida democratic primary. boy, a lot going on this evening. cnn's phil mattingly is with us from the trump campaign in washington state. mr. mark preston is here. jeff zellny as well in new york. go vlade you're here tonight. mark, i'm going to begin with you. the latest developments now that trump's immigration speech tomorrow, a possible meeting with mexico's president. what do you know about that? >> we couldn't make this up. >> it's like the apprentice. >> what we've been told -- we confirmed that donald trump's campaign is currently considering going down to mexico city tomorrow and meeting with the president down there. this was an invitation extended by the president of mexico a week ago to hillary clinton as well as donald trump and there is some talk now within the trump campaign that this would be a good leadoff before heading to arizona to give the immigration speech. >> very quick turn around. these trip also take a while. so what is going on? how did they set this up? >> it is a logistical nightma

lot closer for debbie wasserman schultz. she won by 13 points after the dnc scandal and tough challenge from a bernie sanders supporter. in arizona, sheriff joe arpaio won by double digits. john mccain survives the toughest battle by about a dozen points. mccain made clear last night he is planning to win the general, be back in the senate in january. he'll be a thorn in the side of president clinton or president trump. sheriff joe arpaio, who i mentioned survived his primary, he is 84 years old and said age is simply not a factor. >> i want to say i'm too old, i'm not too old. okay? i work 14 hours a day. all right? you know it. you guys have been following me around for years and years. so i am going -- age means nothing. >> so, you know, tucker and ainsley, this is obviously a central question for republican donald trump, how does he thread that needle of tapping into voter anger but still beating somebody, hillary clinton, who has a lead right now en though she's the ultimate government insider in a year of outsider. thi

debbie wasserman schultz has something in common with my opponent. ms. rojas: she supports the payday loan industry. i don't know if you read that new york times article recently, but in missouri, we have more payday loan operations than walmart, starbucks, and mcdonald's put together. that is because of people like and others like debbie wasserman schultz. the other thing is, neither one of them won a debate in front of the people they represent. especially, i don't know how many years she has been in, when u.s. have had an incumbent family for 48 years, the people do deserve to have an open debate. [applause] just to address the much more enough list, i think it is obviously, it is crucial that we know that. at the same time, the way that i view it, brand-new congress does not have that list. we have to earn every supporter we get. we actually have to go out. the reason why we are going to be in washington and philadelphia is because we are doing a 100 city tour to go out and talk to people. and to find out what they are saying. it obviously would be n

wasserman schultz. that's a week from today. today, tim can ofa said despite bernie sanders holding him up as the poster boy for this down-ballot effort, actual help from senator sanders or his outfit has been slow in materializing. >> we need all the help we can get. look, when bernie endorsed me, he called me and gave me his number and said, stay in touch and please call. and i have, and i'm waiting for bernie to return my call. so, you know, we are hoping that the sanders campaign does still come through, that bernie comes through and makes an appearance for us, or at the very least, helps us raise some more money during such a critical period down the home stretch. and that is our hope. >> tim can ofa running against debbie wasserman schultz said he's thankful for the bernie sanders enendorsement, but he would like a visit or some help with money. so we have one of the hugest stories of 2016. bernie-mentum, the yearning of thousands of people to keep it going. but half the staff just quit and its hi

wasserman schultz? thanks. host: bill on the fingerprints issue. guest: yeah, so james, this is an interesting question, because i've wondered myself why it is that this hack has been so easy to pick apart and to prove reasonably, clearly, and i wondered the same thing around the olympic scandal. why is it that all this evidence is coming out? broadly speaking, when you have an intelligence operation, it's intended to be clan did he say teen and you have multiple layers of concealment. that doesn't seem to have worked here. but i don't necessarily buy conspiracy theories about russians wanting as a false flag for americans or the wider world to think this was someone else's operations. i think things just go wrong sometimes. in terms of the question of, you know, trying to get trump elected or trying to defeat hillary, i guess what perplexes me most is if you think vladimir putin is trying to get trump elected, you have to be pretty short sighted not to realize that branding one of the two american pres

you notice a podium behind me, we're expecting congresswoman debbie wasserman schultz to join us. and among the questions we'll be asking is what we heard dr. fauci talk about, and that is one about funding. as you know, dr. fauci told us it was february when the president requested $1.9 billion for this effort. it wasn't until recently that the urgency was really quite apparent. although the medical professionals, the infectious disease experts, have been telling us it was a matter of inevitab inevitably. they said at the time, likely florida or texas, now we have seen it in florida. we know they're testing in texas. we know that now there's concern in louisiana with the floods, and so there is an urgency about getting the funding. right now some of the funding is being handled for the lack of a better word, robbing peter to pay paul. they're taking money out of ebola funding to work on zika. in this community, the greatest concern, of course, is pregnant women all waiting to find out whether there is going to be an effective effort to eliminate the mosquitoes that are in this ar

wasserman schultz. that's a week from today. today, tim can ofa said despite bernie sanders holding him up as the poster boy for this down-ballot effort, actual help from senator sanders or his outfit has been slow in materializing. >> we need all the help we can get. look, when bernie endorsed me, he called me and gave me his number and said, stay in touch and please call. and i have, and i'm waiting for bernie to return my call. so, you know, we are hoping that the sanders campaign does still come through, that bernie comes through and makes an appearance for us, or at the very least, helps us raise some more money during such a critical period down the home stretch. and that is our hope. >> tim can ofa running against debbie wasserman schultz said he's thankful for the bernie sanders enendorsement, but he would like a visit or some help with money. so we have one of the hugest stories of 2016. berni bernie-mentum, the yearning of thousands of people to keep it going. but half the staff just quit and

debbie wasserman schultz, she'll probably win herself against tim cano canova. the starkest possible advantage of the advantages of incumbency. it's hard to knock off an incumbent. this may be a powerful case for term limits. we have them at the presidential level because it's the hard to beat someone once he has all the levers of powers in the executive branch. >> donald trump will have a big speech on wednesday and on saturday. the good news is you're going to be here tomorrow to talk about it. do you know what you're wearing so we don't clash? >> i'm probably going to wear a striped tie and a dark suit as i do every day of my life. >> i'll wear a tank top and shorts. >> you look so good. >> like larry the cable guy? thanks, tucker. look forward to seeing you tomorrow. >> thank you. >>> heather has some headlines for you. >> let a start off overseas, dramatic new video coming in of a massive rescue at sea. startling images showing hundreds of migrants including mothers and children, look at that, jumping from the packed wooden boat off the coast of libya. doze

it is debbie wasserman schultz. it is the chief financial officer. it is the communications officer , all of these people that have just been tried. that's the source of the information that's known. as to who the intermediaries are, that's another question. it's also a little bit concerning to see the mccarthyist attempt to frame trump as some kind of russian conspirator. i think that's extremely problematic. but the kind of mccarthyist his staira, trying to depict one of the candidates as somehow a man curian candidate i think is a bit disturbing, and also a push for journalists to reveal their sources is disgusting. >> woodruff: i want to give you a chance to say what you believe, julian assange, but wikileaks, we know, argues for transparency. it's part of your very mission. and so isn't this an extension of that, transparency about where this explosive material came from, how it fell into your hands? >> we know exactly where it came from. it came from materials that were just published. it came from the dnc. >> woodruff: you're saying the future
