the governor of georgia and georgia and georgia's secretary of state let us down. they let us down. and by the way, the voting law they passed is far weaker than that of texas and other states. you hear that, mr. attorney general? they don't even have signature verification. could you imagine passing a voting law, but everyone things, they are passing this, no it's not. you notice they are the only state being sued by the federal government. do you know why? because it's an easy target. because the governor and the secretary of state won't defend like that guy will defend. so, i only speak the truth. so true. and the reason the attorney general of the united states is going after georgia is its so bad what they've done, and they will probably win, and that defense won't take place. they go out and they really work very hard on finding the right state to look at. now, stacey abrams and georgia got them to sign what's called a mandated consent decree, which was not approved by the legislator, therefore it's illegal, and makes a very easy for democrats to cheat and win elections. you d

we start this morning in dekalb county, georgia. natasha chen joins us live. it's where many experts are encouraging people to roll up their sleeves by offering incentives, right, natasha? >> reporter: yeah, boris. they're giving out prepaid gift cards today in hopes more people will come to this spot at a mall and get the shot especially as school districts in this area sometimes a bit early to make up for lost instruction time during the pandemic. in many places across the country, georgia is seeing a rising 7-day average new covid cases and that has a lot of people concerned. >> america's waking up to a new day of increased covid restrictions and president biden said we're likely to see more as cases of the highly contagious delta virus spreads. >> almost 1 million people got vaccinated yesterday. >> cdc data shows the rate of new vaccinations is the highest it's been in weeks. just under half the u.s. population is fully vaccinated. the u.s. is pulling in extra help to get it approved as quickly as possible to ease the minds of those worried about vaccine

senate hearing today happening in georgia. you heard that right. the senate rules committee relocated to atlanta for the day to hear testimony about the new restrictive voting law in that state. the committee chair, senator amy klobuchar, joins me now. senator, thank you so much. i appreciate you joining me, i know it's been an extra busy day for you, having to travel. this is the first field hearing held by the rules committee in 20 years. i want to play some of what you heard from witnesses in georgia. here it is. >> one of my colleagues in the house, representative allen cowell, in a committee meeting said to somebody who was testifying, you're correct, it was found, meaning fraud, it's just in a lot of people's minds that there was. he actually said that in a committee meeting. it's really not there, it's just in a lot of people's minds that there was. so this legislation is based on things that are in the imagination in people's minds. >> after an hour and a half of standing outside, we made it inside the building, finally. just to find out th

you had georgia. you had pennsylvania. you had republicans all over the place. they certified their own results. and then you tried to decertify the election. so it wasn't just in good faith and first instance. >> the last four years talking about a russia hoax, we had a democratic party that impeached the president twice once when he wasn't even still in office and you're going to talk about us not accepting the outcome? i think it was representative schiff today that said if this is going to be the new normal that a party is not going to accept the outcome of an election because the other party won god help us. well he led the charge about impeaching the president and knew he had facts on russia. as you know and we all know now that wasn't true but your network was leading the charge on that hoax. >> first of all it is not a hoax. russia interfered with the election. members of the trump campaign took stupid meetings and asked for help they shouldn't have. that is the definition of collusion. was it criminal conspiracy? no. if you watched my show you'd know i'

i live in this county. 159 counties in georgia. there is a reason why republicans are only investigating one. out of all the other counties that had problems on election day, no other county is being investigated and at risk of being taken over by a republican pair a gram. it's only fulton county. they are afraid to say what we all know is true out loud -- that, is too many people that look like me showed up to vote and fulton county. now they want to do something about that. what we also know, when you look across the board and how we've made changes in fulton county, in june, we had our primary elections. the fulton county board of -- commissioners came in to see what happened on election day. they came in got things together for the november election. give people more access to get the lines, down they made sure they had more poll workers. you know what the state did? they passed espy 2:02 to say you can't do mobile voting units. we will not do all these drop boxes to reduce the waiting in line. the republicans are still to blam

this was after democrats and president biden himself criticized georgia voter laws. president biden went as far as calling it "jim crow on steroids." basically he was saying he would restrict voting access for people of color, why "the washington post" push back on that. they gave him four pinocchios for that comment, that's the next movement goes up to, but the damage was done. they gave into the pressure, and they game. folks in denver understand that atlanta folks are upset about it, but they're happy to have it out here. take a listen. >> i've got some friends down in atlanta, a lot of people were angry down there about it. i've got friends and coworkers who think the mlb shouldn't be getting their hands in the political sphere. >> and the rnc is not the only ones airing an ad tonight. senate republicans will also have their own ad airing during the game tonight. they will target democratic senator raphael warnock. they said he didn't stand up to this, and because of this atlanta and georgia lost over $100 million worth of business. what i can tell you is the fol

so what are the facts about the election in fulton county, georgia? a well, here's the official version. in may, the chairman of the faulty county board of commissioners, a man called rob pitts, excellent it was not necessary to look at thes, ballots, in fact it was ridiculous to even ask because there had already been 20 every comes in all the recounts reached b the same conclusion. here's what he said, and if it sounds familiar, that's because so many other people in authority have been saying pretty much the same thing. >> i mean, i'm really baffled about this. what dowh they want? we fed three counts already. the elections in fulton county, georgia, they were open, they were fair, and they were transparent. the votes have been certified, the elections have been certified, so it's over. this will be the fourth one andt i can guarantee you that the results will be -- of this one will be just like the results were for count 1, count 2 and count 3. no change. our elections are open, fair, and transparent. >> tucker: i can guarantee you. we already kno

, georgia's legislature biden won by multiple thousand votes, they can say we don't think it was legit and the state legislature votes. we're going to send electors up to congress to vote for trump, not biden. that's never, ever, ever, ever, ever, ever, ever been tried before. this is jim crow on steroids, what we're talking about. and so it takes -- go to your second point. i've been saying for a long, long time the abuse of the filibuster is pretty overwhelming. when i got to the united states senate at a time when we had guys like strom thurman, robert f. bird and a whole range of people who were very, very, very, very, very, very conservative on race to say the least, even then if you were to filibuster, you had to stand on the floor and hold the floor, and that's why strom i think set the record at 24 straight hours or something. don't hold me to the number but -- you know? so you had to take -- there were significantly fewer filibusters in those days. in the middle of the civil rights movement. >> let me talk to you about that. this is important for people who look like me. my gr

strong republican leadership in georgia, the united states will win every one of them. without them, you won't. >> sean: governor, this is your last segment with us. what it means to you to be the conservative governor of texas. >> governor abbott: remember this texas like people like beto o'rourke. [boos] so what we have... what we have instead of texas is a battle for the soul of our economy. are we going to be capitalists or socialist? we have seen the socialist agenda with beto o'rourke, fidel castro and people like that. texas must prevail. we must keep texas capitalism. let me do this one last thing, capitalism. not socialism. more people lifted out of poverty than all the socialist program in the history of the world. [cheers and applause] >> sean: i will say this about texas. and it's so telling. if you take a u-haul from california to texas come about $2500. if you take it from texas back to california, it is about $300. you are doing u-haul a favor. i know texas is very inclusive, but if people come from california and new york to texas, i think it is fair to

this is happening because georgia went blue. republicans understand the numbers are not on their side going forward, nor in the present in those critical states, including texas, which is closer than they would have wanted. they are implementing a plan to restrict voters -- the votes of voters less likely to vote for them. it doesn't matter if you have the best message if your voters don't have access to the ballot box. >> this comes back to the question of using the power you have. this was the lesson of mcconnell and garland and amy coney audac norm. unless you can get manchin and sinema on board for basically majority rule in the senate, 50 votes, to wield the power you have, then you can't wield the power you have. >> maybe we should start lobbying exxonmobile to get them to lobby manchin and sinema. they seem to are more influence. >> can we hire the exxon lobbyist to lobby them? >> that's what the indivisble should do. >> if they believe giving d.c. statehood, getting rid of the filibuster and adding justices would be in t

are going after georgia instead. they used the filibuster over 200 times during donald trump's presidency and they called the filibuster racist. they demand you wear a mask and to get vaccinated and you socially distance and you follow all the rules while allowing all the hundreds of thousands of illegal immigrants into this country, just processing them without even testing most of them. a third of them when offered the vaccine turned it down. on this program, we are consistent. we condemn violent riots. what happened on january 6th, what happened last summer. whenever it happens, it must be condemned by people of goodwill -- it should be political. we spoke out against the brutal murder of george floyd and of course david dorn and horace lorenzo anderson jr. that said interview i had with his father. unfortunately democrats, their friends in the media, big tech media mob, they don't seem to care about truth, fairness, logic, science, justice. for them it's politics and power, that's all it seems to matter. here wit

♪ ahhhhhhh ♪ ♪ dream until your dreams come true ♪ >>> it wasn't just georgia. former president trump personally tried to reach out to arizona election officials following his narrow loss in november. according to the arizona republic, trump along with close allies like rudy giuliani, kelly ward, tried to pressure election officials in maricopa county. >> it's maddening. we knew this was happening in fwa fwa. we suspected there were some attempts to undermine the election here, and now we have it clearly in tapes. and arizona law makes it clear that interfering in an election is against the law. and that is exactly what this appears to be. >> and this interference has continued to this day. joining us at the table right now is cnn ease supreme court analyst, joan. i want to start with this arizona stuff. i mean, we've known for a long time, obviously, that the president has been interested in getting states to basically find the votes that he needed in order to win. what went on in arizona, i think, highlights the big challenge. it didn't end after election day.

then there is this in yorj ge -- georgia. a professional golfer was found murdered at a golf course outside atlanta. here's the story. >> reporter: what happened in a suburb of atlanta is frightening and deeply mysterious. on friday this pickup truck was driven onto the green at pine tree country club about 45 minutes north of atlanta. when gene siller went to see what was going on, he was shot in the head by the driver of the pickup. this man said he was in the golf course when he heard gunshots. >> when it happens, it's all in the moment. fourth of july, you're thinking fireworks, and it's not fireworks and there's a guy on the ground. >> reporter: gene siller, husband and father of two boys, was found dead at the scene. he was well known and liked and competed in pga tournaments. the gunman is still on the loose. he played golf with gene the day before he was killed. >> i can't believe this happened at our country club. >> reporter: what happened is indeed difficult to believe, only made more incomprehensible because the s

more than 56 million americans are under heat alert from montana all the way to georgia. cbs' lonnie quinn is here with the forecast. hey there, lonnie. >> reporter: another summer day, another heat dome we're talkingr about. today the record heat anywhere from wyoming, south dakota, nebraska. look at rapid city. rapid city hit 106 degrees today. our latest heat dome is just more of the same.two-third temperatures will be in the 90s to 100s, feeling like 105 to 110 for a good chunk of the country. and it's just not tomorrow. i'm talking all the way through saturday, sunday, some areas all the way through tuesday, wednesday next week. it's another summer day, another heat dome. well, consider this: the fires that are burning out west, the air is so hot, as that rain-- we need rain on those fires. but the rain evaporates because of the heat the fires are generating before it can even get to the ground. so it's not as beneficial as we like to see. that's the very latest norah. let's go back to you. >> o'donnell: lonnie quinn, thank you so much. tonight, a 22-year-old georgia

and 158 members of the national guard that joins, alabama, arkansas, florida, georgia, idaho, georgia, nebraska, north dakota, ohio, oklahoma, south carolina and south dakota all have sent some type of troops to the border. because the federal government isn't. and this whole tactic not problems unbelievable. afghanistan the whole country about to be overrun. let's not talk about it. in our border it's nonstop chaos only getting worse. we're not just going to talk about it. no one reports it except us. steve: brian, you know more about history than i do. brian: and ohio. we did miss that got to show you everything all over again. know what happens? you bring up race and confederacy. okay, wait a second i guess i will stop talking now. not going to happen. ainsley: we were talking at the beginning of the show about the contrast and what we experienced on 4th of july and what other groups are experiencing so much violence. people talking about what our freedom really means and referring it's just for white people. senator ted cruz just excoriated congresswoman cori bush because this is

even in states like georgia where joe biden just won an election, where they elected two senate democrats. there's no filibuster in the state senate. it's majority rule. but then if you want to protect voting rights at the national level, well, then it takes 50 votes -- 60 votes and those votes are just not there because republicans won't play ball. not only that, think about this craziness. the filibuster as we say often on the show, it's not some sacrosanct non-negotiable principle. it's changed over time. indeed, i covered it changing back in 2013. democrats got rid of it for most presidential nominations because republicans were using the filibuster to make it impossible to fill courts and executive office appointments. that was a big deal. republicans at the time said you'll regret it. and in some ways probably true. donald trump got to confirm a lot of judges. historic judge confirmation rate. but that's just what democracy looks like. that's the way the cookie crumbles. one thing democrats did leave in place back in 2013, right? they said we're getting rid of the filibuster for all

the answer is that it doesn't, same deal with the voter integrity laws in place like georgia and florida but biden sent out his untalented vice president to do her best. >> these laws make it harder for you to vote because they don't want you to come. your vote is your power. isa don't let anybody ever take your power from you. >> notice they never mention any specific aspect of these voter integrity laws they so vehemently oppose? but then again why facing convenient facts when you can make outlandish claims with impunity. >> and make sure the vote gets counted we will never have one man one woman one vote and vote for the candidate of our choice. >> laws that mandate the cleaning up of voter rolls and tend to increase transparency and ballot counting, just like the laws that require clear voter id, not racially biased in any way, they have no racial component whatsoever, they apply to everyone across the board. to say otherwise, which the sharpton charlatans are doing is alive. you want to know what this fear mongering and hyperbole was really all about? i will tell you. the democrats

the georgia lawsuit is interesting, because they were careful to challenge that georgia law based on intent to discriminate by the georgia legislature. there was a unique timeline that let them make those arguments. it's not clear yet whether they'll be successful. ultimately they want what the country needs, which is hr-1, an act that will strengthen laws around registration and make it easier for folks to exercise their right to vote, as well as hr-4, the john lewis voting rights act which would restore essentially what shelby county took away, restoring preclearance and making it more difficult for people to discriminate against folks who are just trying to exercise their right to vote. >> mike memoli, we learned last hour via a white house official that vice president harris is going to be meeting with that group of texas democrats who left the state to block those republican-backed voting restrictions. president biden has made voting rights part of her portfolio. what can you tell us about that meeting and what the white house hopes to get out of it? >> reporter: the vice presid

tornados reported across the state, as well as parts of southern georgia. well now, the powerful storm is making its way towards the northeast. joining me, now, meteorologist, karen mcginnis. what are you seeing out there, karen? >> yes, this is very interesting, now, because elsa is now moving into high density. high population areas. along that i-95 corridor into the northeast. but what is interesting here is there is a lot of dry air intrusion. meaning, there is dry-edge air that's moved in across the southern and western edge. but this is moving so quickly, now. it's not poking along, like it was. moving at about 14 miles per hour. b but now, it's racing to the northeast at 25 miles an hour. it's position right now puts in a del mar peninsula so as it continues to move, now we are looking at areas from around philadelphia to new york city. eventually, towards boston and into down-east maine. and that's where we have got the highest risk of severe weather. . we could see two to four inches of rainfall, some isolated amounts, up to six inches of rainfall.

you have lawsuits involving defamation, misusing funds, the phone call to change votes in georgia. where does this fit in his legal worries? >> well, i think that this one obviously he is not named in it, so unlike i think the situation in georgia where he made that phone call directly, i think that that is the one that poses the potential greatest risk. it is on tape, it is not something that he will be able to skecurity out of. he -skirt out of. he was the one making the phone call. the attorney general in new york says that the investigation continues, so maybe she has something else. but as of right now, the former president is not implicated in this directly. >> but certainly a reputational hit for the trump organization. >> and lenders won't want to business with an entindicted company. >>> all right. more local news,errick gar land says there are serious concerns whether capital pu punishment is imposed fairly. and president biden says he also has significant concerns about the death penalty and how it is applied. there was a flurry of executions during the waning months of
