we talk about march 16, 8 people were killed in and around atlanta in six of them women of asian descent. on monday a 65 -year-old latina was brutally attacked in new york and was told she did not belong here by her attacker, nonsense. the men who witnessed the attack stood by and did not intervene or do anything. this is all makes your blood boil and makes your mouth file when you see this and it's infuriating and disgusting and totally unacceptable. unfortunately, it is nothing new. such acts against asian americans and pacific islanders have been increasing and becoming all too common in our country today. one way we can stamp that out is to speak up. on tuesday president biden announced additional actions to respond to anti- asian violence. he is a leader in this area the we are all grateful for and may he respond swiftly and strongly. there is no place in our country for hatred or racism of any kind and it betrays the idea of the foundation of our very country and we, as mayors, have to condemn and must condemn and we will continue to condemn any type of hatred or racist violence in

alicia: steve harrigan in atlanta. griff. griff give joining us to react is a georgia state senator who supported the voting rights law and who was just at the press conference with governor kemp senator matt brass, thank you for joining us. tell us what was your takeaway and tell us what you think about what has happened? >> well, griff, thanks. i i think the governor did a great job. it's time for a fight. one of the interesting parts of all this and this is all president biden's fault. the white house and president biden stacey abrams, they continue to spread lies to paint their narrative and they use these catchy phrases like jim crow 2.0 but what's interesting if you actually go back to jim crow 1.0, back then it was democrats, it was corporate america and it was our major league sports that told a group of people that their values didn't matter, that they're not going to have a voice and anybody that supports them is going to get punished and so they may be right in jim crow 2.0 because we are seeing all over again when

, working in hotels in atlanta. they're the victims of this major league baseball boycott, no one else. >> bill: there were 500,000 people who showed up to vote in georgia who had already requested an absentee ballot. i don't know if you knew that number or not. the secretary of state wrote a piece this week. maligned by republicans and president trump at the time supported by democrats at the time. if you under the old law in georgia were to show up after requesting an absentee ballot you would have to do a signature match which is subjective. does this signature match what's here? the reason why they changed the law and got rid of signature match. they wanted to go to voter i.d. or driver's license to determine what's the number that corresponds to your name so we can nail this down. when you have half a million people showing up to vote who have already requested an absentee ballot in a state that was decided by 11,000 votes, you have to find a way to figure it out. >> logically when that happens there is a risk

citizens of atlanta. this was projected to bring $190 million to the all star game to the city of atlanta. ushers, concessioners, surrounding businesses they are all sacrificed at the altar of woke politics. pete: all lies with the bill. none of what the bill actually does. stacey abrams runs around saying jim crow 2.0. if you knew what jim crow was you would never make the comparison. it is racist as you pointed out, rachel to insinuate that black people, brown people, white people, anybody can't get an identification when it's free when you need an i.d., delta, to get on your planes or you need an i.d. atlanta braves to pick up your tickets at will call there is nothing racist about it this is a power play and when corporations give, in they are just -- i mean, it's just like a domino effect. they just keep going. rachel: yeah, time for us to maybe boycott the woke corporations. pete: i think so. i mean, a lot of people would have to take a lot of big actions. we were talking about this. i wonder whethe

the lawmaker behind the new executive order mayor of atlanta, keisha lance bottoms. mayor, thank you for being here. what exactly do you want to accomplish with this executive order? the law has already passed. >> well, thank you for having me. and what we want to accomplish is the 1.2 million customers in the metro atlanta area, what this new law means. how they can get the appropriate i.d., the new rules related to absentee ballots. we want our customers to be informed. so ambassador young tells a great story. one day of voting when he first ran for congress and 74% turnout in the african-american community. so even though there may be barriers, we can still overcome those barriers and we want to make sure our customers are informed so they need to know what to do to cast their ballot when the time comes. >> we have heard a lot about no food or water in line, but beyond those headlines what is the most dangerous part of this bill? >> the most dangerous part of this bill, in my opinion, is the dialing back or giving to the state legislature control over the election

yesterday the mlb announced it will pull the game from atlanta. this comes after georgia passed a controversial voting law last week. this morning, atlanta's mayor keisha lance bottoms said there's still time for the governor to make things right. >> it's not too late for the legislature to go back and reconsider this. they are out of session, but the governor certainly can call a special session, have them reconsider this, make tweaks to it so that it is truly a bill that expands access to the right to vote. i think this is just the first of many dominos that will fall in this state, and we are all going to suffer because of it. >> now, this is not just happening in georgia. in less than five weeks, lawmakers across the u.s. have introduced more than 300 restrictive voting bills in just about every state. joining us now is kavitha davidson, a sports and culture writer for "the atlantic." and also coauthor of "loving sports when they don't love you back: dilemmas of the modern fan." welcome to the program. >> thank you. >> what is your sense of th

atlanta? what do you assess to be the public health benefits and the health benefits within federal facilities, such as u.s.p. atlanta and for the population of incarcerated persons of having greater vaccine adoption by b.o.p. personnel working at those facilities, please. >> senator, we encourage the staff to take it, but we also, because it's not mandatory, we respect the right to make the choice, and i have to do that. we believe that the way that the vaccine was distributed, now that it's available, that inmates were protected under the umbrella of staff being vaccinated. that's how it was rolled out. that's why staff were chosen first to do that. once again, we have to respect the rights of an individual to make choice. with that said, we encourage it. we educate staff. we try to lead by example, as i mentioned earlier, where i have been vaccinated. i put out video messages. we collaborate with our union. they do the same to encourage staff, but at the end of the day, it's an individual c

a week before that, eight people, including six women of asian descent, were killed in three atlanta-area spas. always so incredibly discouraging to start out, again, with what is a horrific normal in america. and as congress debates what to do about this epidemic of gun violence, new polling shows overwhelming support for certain reforms. according to a new politico poll, 85% of registered voters support background checks on all gun sales, compared to 11% who oppose them. when it comes to background checks at gun shows and private sales, 79% support that reform 13% are against it and 64% say they support a ban on assault-style weapons, 27% oppose 64% of americans cofounder of "punch bowl news," john resnahan. here we are again talking about another mass shooting. here we are again having the conversation about gun reform in congress and you and i have talked about this as recently as last week when you pointed out rightly that this happens, then nothing happens in congress. what is the biden administration going to try to do about this? >> they're teeing up some executive orders on this

racism, racist used at all in the process of the mlb commissioner manford, pulling the game out of atlanta. he said, how is that even possible? why that word? >> how is the bill even racist? if you look at it with any form of neutrality, you can't spin that, the white house, or the courthouse or anywhere else around this country, it just does not add up. i've been telling a lot of people and i've been on a lot of different networks, not just conservative networks, i've been on predominately african-american-listening radio shows and other things and every question they ask me, i'm telling people the truth. somebody is lying to you here and it is not me. >> harris: one last one, atlanta's mayor is using her executive authority to expand access, we are told, to voting.

the asian-american community in georgia, following the mass shooting here in atlanta. it was a raw and powerful meeting in a very emotional moment and some criticized me for speaking out nationally about that hate crime. some criticized me for saying how ugly and sinister it was. since then, because of the two senators you sent, among others, the united states senate passed the covid-19 hate crimes act to protect asian americans and pacific islanders from the vicious hate crimes we have seen too often and too long. it passed 94-to-1. don't tell me we can't make progress. it's the first step, and we have a lot more to do. that's right. if we are to truly heal the soul of america, we need to project that sacred right and protect it to vote. in this state of dr. king and john lewis, you know how precious and precarious the right to vote is. in november and again in january, your vote changed the world. instead of celebrating that, it is being attacked. more people voted for president in 2020 than any time in american history ever. and they did it in the middle of a pandem

let me start by asking you, with this alleged jim crow law, they move out of atlanta and the atlanta braves >> to go to denver which is a stricter voter id law or you have to have an id to vote. what you think of all of this someone is in a major sport? >> take baseball, you've got two teams. unfortunately the astros cheated. two teams doing everything to be fair. it is a privilege to vote. let something as a u.s. citizen it is a privilege tose vote. all of those laws of gone out the door. it saddens me. use show an id to get alcohol pretty show id to get on an airplane, what's wrong with showing an id to vote? it is something we should always have to do. it is just really sad this culture that's come around. i don't understand why baseball would do that it saddens me more than anything. judge jeanine: when you look at people in professional sports there almost >> to you guys are really >> to all of these rules. how do you feel about that personally? >> they went to move the masters? the masters is where the most prestigious place in the world to play golf. they raised a town, a ton

why are you taking the all-star game out of atlanta which is going to cause georgia and specifically fulton county, democrats $100 million in revenue?? are you really that spineless? are you really that stupid? because the league apparently has no problem. mlb, they do business in china and we are learning tonight that mlb is bolstering its ties with one of china's largest tech companies. actually cracks down on that executive. by the way, can you pick up will call tickets for a baseball game, sporting event, concert if you don't have a picture i.d.? no, you cannot. senator marco rubio had the strong message for the commissioners saying i am under no illusion that it will sacrifice business revenue on behalf of its elected corporate values. similarly, i am under no illusion that you intend to resign as a member from augustine national yacht club. to do so would require a personal n sacrifice as opposedo the woke corporate virtue signaling of moving the all-star game to atlanta. why is joe biden not being held accountable for his role in starting and fueling the entire fire? peter doo

moving the all-star game out of atlanta. a move supported by president biden. joining me now for reaction along with fox news legal analyst jarrett is outnumber co-host and attorney emily -- thank you for joining us. emily, i'll start with you. you're a sports fan, and i see yothese companies succumbing to this rhetoric that's false information and then making corporate decisions that are, in the case of atlanta, going to harm the people of georgia by pulling out major league baseball and the all-starr game out of atlanta. >> that's exactly right, jason. the people who end up paying for this are those that were employed by the event that they are pulling out. it's those communities that depended on the retail, on the support by's crowds, et cetera. it's exactly what we saw when hollywood decided to boycott georgia and the irony is that there are states with far more draconious election laws. they are laying out their social justice line. what about the 1.5 million corporations and entities that are headquartered in delaware that enjoy the law that is protect th
