the rules very state-by-state. there are some states that have been placed absentee ballot registration requirements. we are concerned those rules are not administered in a fair manner. there are penalties on the books that serve as a deterrent to fraud. as you note, the instances of fraud are exceedingly rare and used as a pretext to impose burdens that prove unfair to voters. in our view to that opening up aspect, that is a challenge we are up against and fraud is indeed exceedingly rare in our democracy. mr. norden: thank you for the question. i agree that it is exceptionally fair. the rate of mail balloting fraud is lower than the rate of americans to be struck by lightning. that is true for mail ballot and true for in-person voting. we know how to do mail balloting securely. we have had mail balloting since the civil war. states have a variety of steps that they take to prevent fraud and to detect and capture any kind of attack on the system. one very common step that every state has is they have a secrecy env

or were they southern states, states?hern northern andey: southern states? ohio, i don't remember, it was the first state, but it was one of those states. two northern and three southern, if i remember that. it's in a footnote. [laughter] one of the interesting things that i do play around with in the book is, what if the south had not seceded? when does slavery end? it took a war to create the 13th amendment, 14th amendment, and 15th amendment. what if there had been no war? when would slavery, which was, the chart was going up this way, still making lots of money, no signs of weakening, moving south and west. everybody was making money, including those mill workers in lowell, massachusetts, and new hampshire, and new jersey. when would it have ended? would it have ended? i was asked this at a conference couple years ago when i had not developed the thinking much. and my sort of answer off the top of my head was maybe during the 1920's and 1930's with the onset of mechanized cotton picking. i'm rethinking that. and i think i was probably too hasty. with the

of a state party then the i.c.c. has jurisdiction that irrespective of whether those crimes are committed by a ton of an afghani or or u.s. service or senator so the i.c.c. does center stage and of course they refuse to cooperate makes it more difficult for the i.c.c. to do its job but it doesn't change the fact an investigation will go forward but what we heard yesterday i'm and we really have to look at this is unprecedented they have tacked on and on an international court in such a way. and that is the response we want to see city as it has made clear that they consider this to be an attack on the administration of justice you know we haven't seen this with the philippines we haven't seen this but it's way the mind of all of these countries that are also under investigation and in which changes have been made for the u.s. to do this i think is is truly astonishing and a bit worrying because it's it's not just what will happen matter to i.c.c. personnel and all of those human rights groups the support work but it'

not only of the state of california but the state of this nation. more broadly the world that we live in. today's meeting, like so many that i have had our humbling. the voices of concern, consternation, anxiety are real and raw. i recognize foundational in so often people in my position are inadequate to the moment. so often we try to meet the moment with the rhetoric. we fain resolve, we make a point to assert a new paradigm. and yet over and over and over again we hear the nays of those whose lives have been lost, have been taken, justice that was never advanced. and communities continuing to feel they are not only being torn asunder, but not being listened to. i fear, as i know many americans fear that we can be back in that moment. every moment your net feels like a different moment every moment were in it we think we will do thing fundamentally different but yet over, and over, and over, and over again we do not meet that next moment. over and over and over again we fail to rationalize the goodwill henley failed to materialize and manifest the

as many states are doing this right now on a state by state basis. and his final point was that people need to wear masks. that is something that biden has continuously stressed over the past few weeks. he also said that he would ask anthony fauci to serve again in his administration and give him a platform to voice what his concerns and opinions are. and you've really see biden zeroing in on the coronavirus pandemic as this has become a big issue in the general election campaign. >> and arlette, president trump and his various supporters there congress and fox have been attacking biden in terms of his cognitive ability and he was asked about that. >> reporter: he was asked and i believe that is the first time he was asked that question and take a listen to that exchange. >> i forget my train of thought from time to time. you got 12 years on me, sir. have you been tested for some degree of cognitive decline. >> i've been tested and constantly testing. look, all i got to do is watch me and i could hardly wait to compare my cognitive capability to that

this shows you through the entire country that we're tracking state by state, and obviously this axis is vastly different than the one on the prior slide because that slide included all of the cases in new york city. but you can see on this slide that we've been tracking very closely north carolina, a team's been with north carolina working with the state and local public health authorities to really respond to the changes there, as well as the south carolina at the bottom. next slide. i'll judst go quickly so you ca see oklahoma's at the bottom of this slide. and next slide, you can see on this slide idaho and oregon. those are the ones in the light blue and the dark green where you see an inflection in their slopes. these inflection points and understanding when they occur and why they occur are critical for understanding how to prevent the spread. next slide. what the vice president talked about is we've created an alert system that brings together what we just talked about, rising cases with an understanding of test positivity. and so this really, this chart which is difficult for

, back to the states. i understand that's a federalism response, but it's not working. >> well, yesterday 500 americans died, chuck, and in germany 680 germans died. the united states' death toll has dropped dramatically from may when it was 2700 and in between it's been a month and three days since george floyd was murdered. in between we had millions of americans express their anger at overzealous policing and the unnecessary use of violence often lethal against african-americans and that was an event in the story of this virus. there's another event in the story of the virus. there's a ventilator supply now of 50,000 that the president got done. there is a lot more social distancing and a lot of older americans are intuitively staying away and the sharp rise in cases is among younger americans. so what the president has to do, look, joe biden is very confident. he's measure the drapes in the white house basement already. he thinks he's got this in the bag. the president needs to go back to his numbers a

in the united states. erica hill in new york, thank you so much. appreciate it. florida's hardest hit county is seeing a surge of younger, less sick coronavirus patients. one hospital in miami-dade reported a 101% increase in just the past 15 days of covid-19 patients admitted to their hospitals. joining us now, dr. richard besser, the former acting director of the cdc. dr. besser, good to see you as always. miami-dade county mayor said that younger residents are going out to residents and other businesses not wearing masks, not avoiding crowds. what should that mayor or governor desantis do to stop this huge spike going on in florida and specific counties? >> yeah. jake, the big challenge is that across the nation starting at the top we're getting mixed messages. there's not a single public health leader who isn't taking this seriously, who doesn't recognize that we're in the early days and that the actions we take now will determine whether that model that erica hill was talking about proves true. it's n

the united states delegate speaks. thatis is the first time enforcement action has been taken by the united nations. that theon recommends members of the united nations furnish such assistance to the republic of korea as may be necessary to repel the armed attack and to restore international peace and security. votes security council seven-one to recommend military support for the republic of korea. in tokyo, the united states move swiftly to translate into action united nations call to arm against the aggressors. american occupation troops in japan are hurried to the defense of the korean republic. back in the united states, b-29 bombers are taken out of mothballs into which they were put at the end of world war ii. elsewhere in the united states, navy planes are taken from storage where they also had been since the end of world war ii. caught by surprise, the united states nonetheless made all possible haste to carry out the united nations call for action against aggression. ♪ units of the famous first united state

state if the state asked them to do something for the state they would have to do it they would have to on the wall but also for their own self preservation so we have to be wary i think about companies that are banks that china signed they want sort of miami where essentially talking about a business you know cyber hacking it is a business how much money or what sort of sums of money being poured into it on both sides not just attacking but trying to fight back against it well you're absolutely right that it's about money and the best guesstimates frankly about cyber related frauds run into the trillions of dollars for the next 2. i think it's mostly about cyber criminal groups but they see states at the high end up doing this to a few political objectives for example we see that really concentrated to. attack on the water treatment facility by election. counterattack is where it gets in the courts so ready that's a nice example of how states are doing and that's. our understanding so. i'm not talking like what have you been talking cyber attacks with us this week thank you so much

into a state. doesn't create a new state containing a city called d.c. these clearly violate the constitution. ome overly clever legislative artists think they found a new loophole, a way to create a violating c. without the constitution. what this bill does is it city of d.c. into a ti tiny city and then creates a a territory that's left over. the problem about that, the 23rd constitution he that gives the city of d.c. electoral votes. the bill itself acknowledges the constitutional flaw within because it contains an expedited to vote on repeal of the 23rd amendment in this ber.er and the senate chat the bill -- chamber. the bill keeps plowing forward if the 23rd amendment is not repealed. farcecal es the situation the few residents, the at 1600 pennsylvania venue, they would have three electoral votes. that's crazy. i urge my colleagues to vote for vote nstitution today and against h.r. 51. the speaker pro tempore: the gentleman reserves. recognizes the gentlewoman from the district of columbia. norton: mr. speaker, the last thing we have to be whether

republican states had gambled with reopening the states too soon i know they were paying the price and allen now report from the government's own centers for disease control and prevention that's the c.d.c. of course and says the number of americans infected may actually be much higher what are they basing that on. well they've been saying this for a little while but the putting more flesh on the bones they're saying that they're suggesting that a number of states are reporting possible cases and that means the undercoating could be somewhere in the region of 10 times less so we're looking at about $2000000.00 cases in the united states at the moment they're saying there could be $20000000.00 and they see $28.00 states are doing this under code 26 of them have seen a surge in cases just in the last 48 hours or so the states that they talk about california texas florida and again new york but these see this means that the virus is around in the community and we're seeing here just in washington d.c. in maryland and virginia the 2 states that are closest to the district that they're talk

this is a state that has still not mandated masks across the state. instead, it's been left to local governments to order businesses to require their customers to wear masks. so there's certainly people who are saying a lot more can be done now that they've reached this crisis level. >> and as you were reporting, we were looking at video from what looked like a potential bar or restaurant establishment in which most of the customers in the video we were seeing, they were outdoors but not wearing masks. thank you. >>> joining us now in cnn medical analyst and former assistant commissioner of new york city's department of health. how troubled are you when you see that florida, for example, a state that doesn't mandate masks, is reporting nearly 10,000 new cases in a single day? >> well, ana, i would disagree with governor desantis in terms of whether you need regulations, mandates for wearing a mask. do we have laws against drunk driving? yeah, we do, because you can't always trust people to do the right thing, especially with something like masks which

affected are states including florida texas and arizona along with california. says ordered all of its bars to close while florida banned its bars from selling alcohol today the u.s. coronavirus task force held its 1st press conference for 2 months. vice president mike pence encouraged u.s. citizens to follow local health guidelines we stand here today we believe we've made progress. but as we are reminded as we see cases rising across the south that we still have work to do and so we say to every american particularly those counties and states that are being impacted by rising cases. now it's a time for everybody to continue to do their part well let's cross now to d.w. correspondent staff and simons in washington d.c. stefan we just heard pence there trying to strike a positive tone about the trumpet ministrations response even as the number of cases a spikes in several states around the country but what do they have planned in response . that's a very good question but let me 1st say that this is an administration and the vice president who seemingly lives in

not to the pleasure of the united states, the united states was not pleased about this.we established a trading relationship at the end of 1960s our new prime minister trudeau reviewed all foreign policies and came to the conclusion, as he was right, it was absurd for canada to not recognize the people's republic of china in 1970 we established a diplomatic liaison office in beijing in the chinese established one and we moved forward to full recognition. >> bring us up-to-date on your own career. i see on the jacket of the book you moving to oxford. >> was very happily ensconced at the university of toronto where i teach history and the head of the college there i wasn't thinking about what when i do in my term ended. i got a phone call about a year and and a half ago from a place called saint anthony's college in oxford saying would i be interested in being warden, which is not quite what it sounds like it just means Ãbi did my graduate work there. >> saint anthony park. how big of a college is that? >> it's about 250 all graduate students and 50 fellows. they do international relat

failing states and non-state actors are the principal threat of the 99 is a. minute or until it is the total call and. it's also we have categorizing and it's essentially putting legitimate state actors like russia or china into the same group as non-state actors like isis an ob * a terror group isn't just al just a little bit to give this a poke contrary if you are not we last year against that. so actually i think he's making the opposite point what he's saying is there are 2 different characters that are very different from each other they're up here or in your state adversaries russia china perhaps and then there are a completely different category which is the non-state actors what he calls the snakes and my argument in the book is that we've spent basically 20 years of dissing on snakes on only particularly one snake international islamic extremism and the related terrorism and i think that the world that rules he describes in 993 was an accurate description for maybe 10 years but it is out of date now and we now harness those if you like mal adapted to

and the military to move in like that into individual into individual states. it would be quite a thing there's a general cultural sense that it really shouldn't be done except in the most extreme of circumstances but as you say come all it's not true that he has to get permission if he wants and he determines in his discretion that the law can't be enforced in a particular place because of the unrest or demonstrations he can on his own call in the army and when i mentioned as well that they would be an executive order to deploy troops now the president trying to use as executive order has a lot for a lot of different things and they don't necessarily happen in this case would this be one of those where he can just say no this is happening and they have to do it. well he certainly can and this my sense is that he will i mean it's true there are these formal requirements but they're pretty straightforward he can he can dodge his eyes and crosses t's fairly easily and i think he wants to show who's boss especially in certain jurisdictions where he thinks the. loc

and the united states. it's going to be quite an unwinding. this meeting, anything going to come of it between -- [laughter] between the secretary of state and the foreign minisr china? >> i think some goodwill, lou. the chinese have singled out secretary pompeo as the ringleader of the anti-china policies. they h book. they still think he demands both the cia and the state department, and their goal smsh, they want to calm down secretary pompeo, soothe him, say there's no problem here and3et back to the old strategy of inducing complacency. i don't think it's going to work. i think secretary pompeo is going to say something pretty m. i think he and president trump are very much aligned. they're two heroes who have turned aund u.s. policy on china. so i think it's going to be a successful meeting -- lou: [inaudible yeah, china's going to have to understand that a they're going to run into a fist they continue to offer their nose in the way they have around the globe. i don't think rhetoric, any more of thi

and if we have good leadership in the states, we can all hope and pray that the states will try to work together cooperatively and collectively to advance their mutual interests. ultimately what we are going to have happen here is confrontation and conflict and competition where states feel like they have got to look out for their interests against other states. and the states will dislocate and pull apart like that because of the failed failure effort. mike pence with republican senators today being like seems fine to me, accentuate the positive? so there's a lot going on. it's at least all on a theme. you know? it is all distopia. it's all on a theme of how disastrously bad american governance, perhaps the worst american governance in the history of this country, how that manifests in terms of rule of law, in terms of health and safety of the people, in terms of the la la land nonsense from the people who are supposed to be leading this country during this dark time. yes, the fishing should wait, for at least another day or two. we have lots to get to tonight. stay with us. we are off

good afternoon from brussels and the 15th edition we are very pleased to welcome you secretary ofnd state michael pompeo for a special conversation we have hosted the secretary be for and are pleased to have him back again which is a closely watched conversation on those critical challenges on both sides of thend atlantic. let me say a word of thanks toou our partners into all associate we are grateful to all of them also a very special thank you to the european union and all three missions for their consistent partnership also let me say about the forum today, the secretary will make some brief remarks that we are pleased to turn this over for a conversation you have a conversation with the secretary then he has kindly agreed to take a few questions so once again thank you for being with us and brussels thank you for joining. >> thank you welcome to secretary of state to tell us what is on his mind i and then i will take some questions from the audience. please go ahead. >> thank you for inviting me to be with youh all hello to everyone who is logged in to watch 18 months ago and brussel

these days is to win the state of florida to win the state of florida you have to win south florida to win south florida you have to convince the venezuelans and the cuban exiles who left cuba and venezuela and el salvador and nicaragua all who live there that you are more anti communist than anybody so clinton did it bush did it. this this want to be president biden is now doing it trump did it when he ran for president they go to miami and they give a stump speech saying i will free your country i'm more anti communist than anybody else vote for me and then they never go back there again except one month until the next election that's just the way it works george i mean some of this is just politicking right. yes but what you've just demonstrated is the law of unintended consequence the sanctions against iran have pushed iran into the russian orbit the sanctions against russia pushed russia closest can be treated d. and tweedle dum with china no the sanctions on iran and venezuela have pushed iran venezuela together and you are not have the delights to look forward to of shopping

united states v. roger stone. he says, quote, what i saw was the department of justice exerting significant pressure on the line prosecutors in the case to obscure the correct sentencing guidelines calculation to which roger stone was subject and to water down and some cases outright distort the events that transpired in his trial and the criminal conduct that gave rise to his conviction. what i heard repeatedly was that roger stone was being treated differently from any other defendant because of his relationship to the president. i was told that the acting u.s. attorney, timothy shea, was receiving heavy pressure from the highest levels of the justice department to cut stone a break and that the u.s. attorney's sentencing instructions to us were based on political considerations. i was also told that the acting u.s. attorney, tim shea, was giving stone such unprecedentedly favorable treatment because he was, quote, afraid of the president. zelensky says that explanation was deeply unsettling. together with my fe

and i want to talk to you about your state. because you're seeing a spike there right now, along with other states. i think this is something many are curious about. we recall california was the first state to really lock down. and yet you're seeing the spike happen. what happened? what went wrong? >> brianna, i don't think anyone has the truly scientific answer to that, other than it looks like when people cluster or go home or to work, they start to have contact with other people, that you see the spread. and because california is such a large state, 43 million people, you could see clusters at beaches and parks, that could have an impact. and certainly if you start to have indoor gatherings, that could make it far worse. >> are you going to have to dial this back? shut down again and take more measures? >> that's the governor's call. we have defended every order that he has promulgated and dozens of times we have defended and won every case defending his executive orders. clearly the public's health is at risk, lives are at

the independence of the united states. he had great parents and also the commander of the polish uprising where he was fighting for the independence of poland. he suffered heavy wounds in poland fighting for the independence of our country. for incomprehensible reasons to us, that monument was devastated. thank you so much, it has been renewed fast. that made it possible for me to lay flowers at that monument and pay tribute to the great soldier and great commandment. thank you for that. that was out rages for a big number of polish people back in poland, all of them. for many, many polish people here in united states. asked me and told me that they would renew that monument. i know that it is already been renewed by the united states. no assistance was needed. i am very grateful for that. that the monument near the white house should look as it should look, which he has deserved. thank you very much, mr. president. and as for your question, two months ago at the very beginning of the pandemic of the coronavirus, we had a

between the united states and china. benton at least dimly foresaw that and fought for the expansion of the american west. his daughter, jesse benton fremont, was a kind of son to him. he took a long time as a husband and father before he got a son. he was disappointed jessie was boy'sboy, gave her a name. she is named after his father. she writes in a memoir, my father gave me the place a son would have had. he took her hunting, he took her to the united states senate when he was going to work. he took her to what we now call the white house to meet a variety of presidents starting with andrew jackson, who took office in 1829 when jessie was not quite five. she grew up amid power and grew up in washington and had ambitions -- i don't want to say to be a man or to be a boy. but had ambitions to do things only men were allowed to do. she had a moment as a teenager when she cut off her hair and went to her father and said, i want to check out of washington society. i have just attended this fancy society wedding of one of

tactic, while washington state governor jay inslee calls to restrict the use of chokeholds in his state. the black lives matter movement also taking center stage in many arenas including tonight's nascar race in virginia. driver bubba wallace unveiling his newly painted all black racecar with the hashtag #blacklivesmatter written on the side. and two hands, one black, one white, together. >> no one should feel uncomfortable when they come to a nascar race. >> reporter: speaking of compassion, love, and understanding, i just had a chance seconds ago to sit down with police chief arradondo one on one. he told me that he did have a chance to meet with the family, that he apologized to their face, and that they responded by hugging him. and he said it was a very powerful moment. i also asked him about police unions and if they have a role in not allowing officers who should not be on the streets to stay at departments. and he said this. and i thought it was remarkable because he is now saying he is not going to work with the police unions if change doesn't happen. he said if they are not li

this is not just an issue for one city or one state. my home state. or is it an issue just at the local level. there's a lot of work that needs to be done at the local level. and that has been acknowledged by mayors and police chiefs across the country but there's also really important work that we must do here. i was proud to join my colleagues in introducing the justice in policing act led by senators booker and harris which makes comprehensive changes to our justice system that are long overdue. these reforms including police officers being held accountable for misconduct, reforming police practices, and improving transparency will be good for our nation. the justice in policing act will help prevent more tragedies like those we have seen to prevent murders. it is why it's supported by groups like the naacp, the leadership conference for human rights and national urban league. the house is expected to pass the bill this thursday. and then it comes over here. but instead of taking up that bill, the justice in policing act, leader mcconnell has broug

we're not a-- state we're a donor state. so some of my colleagues they should look, 20, 30 billion more that they get from the federal government than that they pay into the federal treasury. we in new jersey pay more than we get. and now that we're in the mid st of a national emergency and we have thousands dying and we should pay the consequence because we did the right thing to do job number one for the safety and security of our citizens. i don't think so, mr. president, i don't think so. i field the floor. >> senator from oregon. >> mr. president, i thank my colleagues. a number have already given eloquent remarks and we've got more to come and i know per the agreement that time to pro pound the unanimous consent request so with the support, mr. president, of thousands of firefighters, first responders, teachers, county health providers and thousands of more americans of both political parties with an extraordinary work ethic, i ask unanimous consent that the senate proceed to the immediate consideration of the state, l

those states are in green. the states that don't get support from the great american outdoors act are highlighted in orange. now, it may be a little hard to see, but there are no orange states. every state in the union receives support through the great american outdoors act. from sea to shining sea, the land and water conservation fund, the restore our parks act, the great american outdoors act will provide billions of dollars in opportunity for recreation, hiking, fishing, camping, conservation, access to lands that the public already held but didn't have a way to get to until the land and water conservation fund. 99% of land and water conservation funds go to purchasing access to lands the american people already hold or are in holdings in a national park. in fact, one of the most recent purchases the land and water conservation fund purchased in colorado was land within rocky mountain national park, one of the last remaining inland portions helping to create the rocky national park, the third-most visited n

the state did nothing. in fact the state said it wasn't their fault and not their issue. instead he spent $400,000, the secretary of state spent $400,000 doing an advertisement thanking himself for buying these machines. that 400,000 decide could have paid for 1600 poll workers yesterday who could have reduced the five to seven hour lines people stood. in the third issue is this. we have few are polling places, few are workers, and not only would those resources have provided for that, he did nothing to ensure that communities that desperate hi needed to be able to vote were going to be able to do so safely. incompetence' and malfeasance come together and make voter suppression not only a disaster, itself makes it a solvable problem. remove people who have bad hearts but you can change the threw make them do good and have to demand those who are elected to hold the offices, the secretaries of state, do their jobs and that is what didn't happen yesterday in georgia. >> yeah. i think you make so many good points there and because you saw what was coming, you were not surpri

they state those rules are zero-tolerance. the message is one of enforcement and not guidance although there is no talk of a second shut down. critics accused the governor of manipulating data to -- reopening florida's economy. ownemployee has built her website after being fired by the florida department of health. she says she is no longer willing to massage the data. the state said she did not listen to her superiors. to be thet need person who manually gone in and say this is the most trusted information for resource in this state. i would do it again. reporter: officials eight younger people getting the virus means shorter hospital stays, but in a state with a large elderly population, florida is getting a potential resurgence of the coronavirus. host: let's get an update from gabriel elizondo. the u.s. president maintains the reason cases are going up is because or testing is being done across the country. that is partially right. as one doctor said, you are never going to gain or lose weight if you never step on a scale.

states 2 with the heart of u.s. commerce no exception new york's or protesters come out peacefully to support the black lives matter movement of the protests coincided with the women's empowerment march and ended with a joint platform crowds gathered in manhattan reportedly starting out from the tower people were saying holding placards and chanting demands various demands including defunding the police justice for george floyd and a particular focus to on the lives black women but aside from public support the black lives matter movement has the backing of major u.s. companies too including amazon microsoft and starbucks however it does seem their actions aren't speaking louder than their words saskia taylor expect transfer century companies live in fear of cats culture alone tweet to i misjudged jokingly 20 hoss sentence in the court of public opinion so with black lies much of protests sweeping the globe every business is clamoring to see a part of find the problem is they've got to do a background check on thems
