LIVE: DNC Day 3: Bill Clinton, Tim Walz, Oprah to speak at Democratic convention in Chicago

19 MINNESOTA TEACHER OF THE YEAR JESS DAVIS TO SING OUR NATIONAL ANTHEM. OH, WHOA SAY, CAN YOU SEE BY THE DAWN'S EARLY LIGHT. WHAT'S SO GREAT WE HEAR AT THE TWILIGHT'S LAST GLEAMING? >> WHOSE BROAD STRIPES AND BRIGHT STARS THROUGH THE BELL OH, LOVES WERE ALL THE RAMPARTS WE WATCHED WERE SO GALLANTLY STREAMING THEN ROCKETS RED GLARE BURSTING INTO GAME THROUGH THROUGH THE NIGHT THAT OUR FLAG WAS STILL THERE. >> WHOA SAY THE THAT STAR-SPANGLED BANNER YET WE'RE FOR THE FLAG AND WHETHER AND THE OH BUT GRAY PLEASE LET ME SEE THAT VERY POWERFUL NATIONAL ANTHEM SENATOR AMY KLOBUCHAR, SHE IS JOINING US RIGHT NOW BY ABC NEWS SENIOR WHITE HOUSE CORRESPONDENT SELINA WANG SLEEPING. I'LL LET YOU TAKE IT AWAY. HEY, KATE, I THINK YOU'RE WITH ME IS SENATOR AMY KLOBUCHAR FROM MINNESOTA. AND I LOVE SENATOR, YOU'RE GOING TO BE INTRODUCING GOVERNOR TIM WALZ TONIGHT, WHO YOU'VE FOR MANY YEARS, NORMALLY A RUNNING MATE DOES NOT HAVE A BIG IMPACT ON THE ELECTION. BUT JUST GIVEN HOW HISTORIC THIS RACE IS, HOW DO THINK GOVERNOR WALZ IMPACTS HARRIS' CHANCES? WELL, OBVIOUSLY HE HELPS IN THE MIDWEST. HE COMES FROM RURAL NEBRASKA, TAUGHT IN MINNESOTA, IN MANKATO, MINNESOTA RAISED HIS FAMILY THERE, JOINED THE NATIONAL GUARD AT AGE 70. HE IS SOMEONE THAT A LOT OF PEOPLE CAN RELATE TO IN RURAL AMERICA, EVEN BEYOND THE MIDWEST. >> SO I THINK WHAT YOU'RE SEEING HERE IS THEY LOVE HIS PERSONALITY. PEOPLE, THE WHY DIDN'T ANYONE KNOW WHO HE WAS? I SAID BECAUSE HE WAS DOING HIS JOB. HE'S BEEN GOVERNOR FOR EIGHT YEARS IN CONGRESS IN A VERY REGISTRY GOT REELECTED SIX TIMES. HE IS JUST AN AMAZING AND I THINK PEOPLE REALLY LIKE HIM. HE IS SOMEONE THAT, YOU KNOW, CAN TEACH PEOPLE HOW TO FIX A HEADLIGHT ON A CAR ON THE CHEAP RIGHT. A FORMER PRESIDENT OBAMA SAYING, YOU KNOW, THOSE FLANNEL SHIRTS, THEY DON'T COME FROM ANYONE. THEY'VE BEEN THROUGH A LOT. SO WHEN IT COMES TO THE REPUBLICAN ON GOVERNOR WALZ, HOW EFFECTIVE DO YOU THINK THEY ARE, ESPECIALLY IT COMES TO HIS MILITARY SERVICE? YOU KNOW, I REALLY SAY BRING IT ON. A GUY SERVED FOR 24 YEARS, JOINED WHEN HE WAS 17, SERVED WITH HIS UNIT IN EUROPE WHEN THEY WERE CALLED. BUT EVERYONE KNOWS WHAT THE NATIONAL GUARD IS. THEY HELP HOMELAND AS WELL. TORNADOES, FLOODS, HURRICANES THOSE ARE THE KINDS OF THINGS THAT THE NATIONAL GUARD DOES WITH PEOPLE, KEEP PEOPLE SAFE. >> SO HE EVEN STAYED FOUR MORE YEARS BEYOND WHEN HE HAD TO PERFORM RETIREMENT. SO I THINK IT'S ALMOST IT'S SOMEWHAT ABSURD THAT THEY'RE DECIDING TO QUESTION THE SERVICE. AS SOMEONE THAT SERVED FOR 24 YEARS, NO ONE IS QUESTIONING J.D. VANCE, SERVICE WHICH WE SO APPRECIATE IN THE MARINES, BUT THEY SHOULDN'T ALSO. >> QUESTION 24 YEARS IN THE NATIONAL GUARD. AND THIS IS REALLY A SPRINT FOR BOLT HARRIS AND WALZ TO INTRODUCE THEMSELVES TO AMERICA, YOU CONSIDER GOVERNOR WALZ A FRIEND. YOU GUYS GO WAY BACK. IS THERE SOMETHING THE GOVERNOR THAT THE AMERICAN PUBLIC SHOULD KNOW ABOUT THAT WE HAVEN'T SEEN ? WELL, I THINK YOU'LL SEE HE'S A GREAT DAD. I AM I THINK THAT IF ANYONE SAW THE VIDEO OF HIS TWO KIDS, TEENAGERS DOING RABBIT EARS BEHIND PARENT THEIR PARENTS HEAD YESTERDAY AT THE CONVENTION OF AMUSING, YOU COULD JUST TELL IT'S WHAT ANY AMERICAN KID MIGHT DO, NOT THINKING THEY'RE GOING TO BE ON TV. AND I ALSO THINK THE FACT HE TOOK AN ZERO AND 27 FOOTBALL TEAM, NOT EVERYONE KNOWS IT WAS THAT MANY LOSSES ZERO AND 27 HIGH SCHOOL FOOTBALL TEAM AND TURN THEM INTO STATE CHAMPIONS. YOU GOT TO BE AN INSPIRING PERSON AND A MOTIVATOR TO DO THAT. ARE ALL THINGS AMERICA IS GOING TO GET TO KNOW ABOUT TIM WALZ. SO OUR JUNIOR SOURCES TELL US THAT HE IS PLANNING TO DROP OUT OF THE PRESIDENTIAL RACE, THAT HE IS GOING TO ENDORSE TRUMP. WE TOLD THAT BY SOURCES. DOES THAT IMPACT THIS ELECTION? >> DOES IT HURT HARRIS? NO PEOPLE WHO WANT TO SEE A STRONG TICKET THAT'S TO STAND UP FOR DEMOCRACY AND OUR FREEDOMS AND SCARE PEOPLE BACK ARE GOING TO GO WITH HARRIS AND WALZ KENNEDY PRETENDING HE'S SOME NEW PERSON. AND IF HE THEN GOES AND ENDORSES TRUMP AND WHO SAYS, IF WE KNOW THAT'S TRUE OR NOT, THAT'S GOING BACKWARDS. AND MORE AND MORE PEOPLE ARE SAYING, I DON'T WANT GO BACK TO THAT. I DON'T WANT TO GO BACK TO DONALD TRUMP. I WANT TO MOVE FORWARD. >> HARRIS IS GAINING GROUND IN THE POLLS, BUT SHE STILL DOES POLL BELOW TRUMP. IT COMES TO TOP ISSUES THAT VOTERS CARE ABOUT, LIKE THE ECONOMY, INFLATION, IMMIGRATION. WHY DO YOU THINK THAT IS? WELL, WHEN SEE THE POLLS IN THE SWING STATES AND ALSO OVERALL WITH THE GENERAL POPULATION VOTE, SHE IS SURGING. SHE IS AHEAD IN A NUMBER OF THE SWING STATES GAINED GROUND IN JUST 30 DAYS. SHE HAS UNITED OUR PARTY SINCE . THE NOMINATION RAISED NEARLY $500 MILLION, FILLED ARENAS WITH 15,000 PEOPLE, WHICH REALLY OFF DONALD TRUMP AND IS SURGING IN THE STATES THAT REALLY MATTER WHEN. YOU LOOK TO THE ELECTORAL COUNT. SO I THINK THE PUBLIC IS MOVING AND THEY'RE MOVING WITH MOMENTUM WHILE DONALD TRUMP IS SPINNING AROUND TALKING ABOUT BIRD CEMETERIES. BUT WHEN IT COMES TO THE ISSUES ,DEMOCRATS HAVE BEEN VULNERABLE, ESPECIALLY WHEN PRESIDENT BIDEN WAS STILL IN THIS RACE, ON THE ECONOMY, ON THE BORDER. WHAT IS HARRIS NEED TO DO TO TO AMERICANS THAT SHE CAN BE TRUSTED TO HANDLE THOSE ISSUES? SURE. I THINK YOU'RE GOING TO SEE A LOT OF THAT THIS WEEK IN HER SPEECH TOMORROW. SHE AND PRESIDENT BIDEN TOGETHER TOOK ON THE PHARMACEUTICAL COMPANIES WHEN PEOPLE HAD TALKED ABOUT IT FOR YEARS. I KNOW I LED THE BILL ON MEDICARE NEGOTIATION, WHICH IS NOW GOING TO SAVE $1.5 BILLION FOR MILLIONS AND MILLIONS OF SENIORS. DONALD TRUMP I HAVE TALKED ABOUT DOING SOMETHING ON PHARMA. HE DIDN'T DO IT. THEY DID BECAUSE WAS CARRYING THAT BILL AND HE DIDN'T GET IT DONE. THEY'RE THE ONES THAT PUT THE INSULIN IN. THEY'RE THE ONES THAT ARE TAKING ON CONSOLIDATION. THEY ARE THE ONES THAT HAVE FINALLY DONE SOMETHING ON INFRASTRUCTURE. SO SHE IS GOING TO HAVE A STORY TO TELL. BUT I THINK WHAT PEOPLE REALLY WANT TO HEAR TOMORROW WILL ALSO BE HER PLANS FOR THE FUTURE, PARTICULARLY THINGS LIKE CHILD AND KIND OF THAT NEXT STEP ARE THINGS WE HAVE TO DO TO HAVE NEW FOLKS BACK IN AMERICA. AND HOW DO YOU THINK DEMOCRATS HAVE CHANGED IN TERMS OF HOLDING ON TO THE SENATE NOW THAT IT'S HARRIS AND BIDEN AT THE TOP OF THE TICKET? >> SURE. WELL, INTERESTINGLY ENOUGH, OUR SENATORS, YOU KNOW, PEOPLE LIKE SHERROD BROWN AND JON TESTER, TAMMY BALDWIN AND JACKY ROSEN AND BOB CASEY, THEY HAVE BEEN AHEAD IN POLL AFTER POLL EVEN DURING THAT WHERE PEOPLE WERE TALKING ABOUT WHETHER OR NOT PRESIDENT BIDEN SHOULD STAY ON THE TICKET. THEN WHEN HE MADE THE SELFLESS DECISION, GET OFF THOSE CANDIDATES IN THE SENATE SEAT IN VERY RED STATES, WE'RE STILL AHEAD. SO THEY REMAIN AHEAD. I THINK THAT KAMALA HARRIS, TIM WALZ DOES NOTHING BUT HELP. WE'RE TURNING OUT OUR VOTERS. >> YOU SEE PEOPLE VOLUNTEERING IN DROVES. >> SMALL CONTRIBUTIONS ARE SHOWING UP. I'VE SEEN THEM AT PARADES. IT'S AN UNBELIEVABLE CHANGE AND A JUMP START. WELL, SENATOR, YOU SO MUCH FOR JOINING US. >> AND WE WILL BE HEARING FROM MORE OF YOU TONIGHT OF GOVERNOR WALZ. WE APPRECIATE IT. THANKS. WE GOT A LITTLE SNEAK PREVIEW OF YOU BEFORE HER REMARKS TONIGHT. THANK YOU, DANA. BACK TO YOU. YEAH, WE CERTAINLY DID. SELINA AND SENATOR KLOBUCHAR, OUR THANKS TO YOU AND CELINE, I'M NOT READY TO LET YOU GO JUST YET, IF YOU DON'T MIND, BECAUSE I'M VERY TO GET YOUR TAKE ON WHAT YOU SAW IN MILWAUKEE. PLAY YESTERDAY. WE KNOW THAT VICE PRESIDENT HARRIS AND WALZ WERE NOT HERE IN CHICAGO. IN FACT, THEY WERE IN MILWAUKEE . AND I'M CURIOUS AS WELL TO HEAR WHAT SENATOR THINKS ABOUT, THE INCREDIBLE ATTENTION THAT THEY ARE PAYING NOT ONLY ALL THE SWING STATES, BUT IN PARTICULAR WISCONSIN AND MILWAUKEE. YEAH, I MEAN, LOOK, I HAVE BEEN SAYING THAT THAT MILWAUKEE RALLY WAS THE LOUDEST, POTENTIALLY MOST RAUCOUS RALLY I'VE BEEN TO FOR. HARRIS. YEAH. I MEAN, PEOPLE WERE ENERGY WISE, THEY WERE REVVED UP, THEY WERE EXCITED. AND HARRIS REALLY FOCUSED. HER REMARKS, THIS FIGHT FOR THE FUTURE, A FIGHT FOR THE MIDDLE CLASS. WHEN I WAS TALKING TO VOTERS IN THAT BATTLEGROUND STATE, THEY SAID THAT'S WHAT REALLY RESONATES WITH THEM. THE FACT AND THIS IDEA THAT VICE PRESIDENT HARRIS IS ONE OF THEM AND IS FIGHTING FOR AND OUR ANCHOR WANTED TO ALSO GET YOUR PERSPECTIVE ON WHAT WE'RE SEEING IN THESE BATTLEGROUND STATES, LIKE IN MILWAUKEE, WHERE YESTERDAY MEAN THE MUSIC WAS SO LOUD, THE WHOLE FLOOR WAS VIBRATING. >> I COULDN'T HEAR ANYTHING. IT'S NOT ENERGY. TAYLOR SWIFT TYPE EARTHQUAKE. SO I JUST THINK PEOPLE ARE REALLY EXCITED AND I THINK YOU SEE THIS SPLIT SCREEN WHERE YOU SEE THESE EXCITED RALLIES. AND THEN ON THE OTHER SIDE YOU SEE DONALD TRUMP AND J.D. VANCE. IT LOOK LIKE THEY NEED TO BE IN COUPLES COUNSELING ALREADY. I MEAN, THAT WALLS AND AND HARRIS ARE OUT THERE TOGETHER WHICH I LIKE. I JUST THINK COOL THEY SHE PICKED SOMEONE REALLY DIFFERENT THAN HER AND HE KIND OF DOUBLED DOWN ON WHAT HE WAS. AND ONE OF THE THINGS THAT'S FUN ABOUT THAT IS THAT IT SHOWS STRENGTH IN A LEADER SHE HAS JUST HIT HER STRIDE SHE'S STANDING THERE WITH HER HEAD HIGH. AND SO WHEN ALL THESE HITS ARE COMING HER THAT MICHELLE OBAMA REFERENCE, YOU CAN JUST SEE SHE KNOWS HER NORTH STAR AND SHE'S HEADING RIGHT TO IT. IT WAS CERTAINLY THIS UNUSUAL SHOW OF STRENGTH THAT DURING THE DNC SHE WAS STILL ABLE TO RALLY THIS CROWD OF 15,000 PEOPLE ACROSS THE WAY OVER IN MILWAUKEE. IT IT'S QUITE, QUITE SOMETHING TO EXPERIENCE YESTERDAY. ALL RIGHT, SELINA AND SENATOR CLOVIS, OUR THANKS TO BOTH OF YOU. WE REALLY APPRECIATE IT. AND WE HAVE A LOT MORE SPECIAL COVERAGE AHEAD HERE FROM THE DEMOCRATIC NATIONAL CONVENTION IN CHICAGO. I'M KAYNA WHITWORTH. STAY WITH. >> WHAT DOES IT TAKE TO BE THE MOST WATCHED NEWSCAST IN AMERICA? AN OPERATION PICKING UP HER LICENSE TO FIND HER COMBAT OPERATIONS. WE'RE APPROACHING THE GATE NOW. MILITANTS IN FROM FOUR OR FIVE DIFFERENT DIRECTIONS. OPERATIONAL NUCLEAR REACTOR. SO WE HAVE A COUPLE OF LOADED AND READY TO GO. THE HOUSE IS DESTROYED, BUT THE FLAG, THERE'S NOT A TEAR IN AND OUT OF THERE. HOW IMPORTANT TO JUST LABEL RIGHT HERE THE, USA. >> LOOK AT YOUR SMILE. YOU'RE PROUD OF IT? I LOVE IT. GREAT WORK, RIGHT? WHERE ARE YOU? HOW ARE. APPRECIATE THE INFORMATION. REAL. >> DAVID. THERE'S. >> YES. YES, I'M DAVID, YOU ARE. >> I KNOW YOU ARE. YOU DO EVERY NIGHT. ABC'S WORLD NEWS TONIGHT WITH DAVID MUIR IS AMERICA'S MOST WATCHED NEWSCAST. >> IF YOU WERE COMING OF AGE IN 19 EIGHTIES, THE BRAT PACK WAS HERE THE CENTER OF YOUR CULTURAL. BUT FOR THOSE OF US EXPERIENCING IT FROM THE INSIDE, THE BRAT WAS SOMETHING VERY DIFFERENT. IF YOU HAVE A PACK NAME NOT EXIST, WOULD YOU? >> I HATED THE BRAT PACK. WHAT A DISASTER. WHY DID WE TAKE AS AN OFFENSIVE ADDRESS? >> AND THEN, LIKE I SAY, WE WERE THE BEATLES? WELL, DIDN'T SELL SHEA STADIUM 1985. I THINK WE COULD HAVE CUT IT WHENEVER. WHEREVER OUR NEWS BREAKS. >> IT'S SO IMPORTANT TO ALWAYS REMEMBER THAT LIVES ARE CHANGED HERE IN LONDON, IN BUFFALO, LIVE ALL DAY. >> TEXAS, SCOTLAND REPORTING FROM ROLLING FORK, MISSISSIPPI, THE UKRAINIAN REFUGEES HERE IN WARSAW.

AND ABC NEWS WHITE HOUSE CORRESPONDENT MARYALICE PARKS, WHO ARE INSIDE THIS CONVENTION WITH ME. SO FIRST OF ALL, TERRY, LET'S CHECK IN HERE WITH YOU. I GUESS IF YOU COULD WALK US THROUGH WHAT YOU'RE SEEING RIGHT NOW. THIS IS ALREADY UNDERWAY HERE AND WE'RE ALREADY HEARING REALLY POWERFUL REMARKS ABOUT ABORTION ACCESS. THEME, OF COURSE, IS PRESERVING THESE FREEDOMS. AND THEY DO INTO IT ON THE TOPIC OF ABORTION. THAT'S RIGHT. AND IN THIS DEMOCRATIC CONVENTION IN CONTRADICTION IN SOME WAYS, OR AT LEAST IN TO PREVIOUS DEMOCRATIC CONVENTIONS, THEY ARE LEANING IN TO THE RIGHT TO CHOOSE AN ABORTION. IN THE PAST, THAT WAS SOMETHING YOU HEAR A LOT MORE AT AT REPUBLICAN CONVENTION. RIGHT. CALLING FOR THE OVERTURNING OF ROE VERSUS WADE AND DEMOCRATS WOULD LIKE. BILL CLINTON FAMOUS LINE. IT SHOULD BE SAFE, LEGAL AND RARE AND NOW AFTER THE SUPREME COURT IN THE DOBBS DECISION OVERTURNED VERSUS WADE TOOK THAT RIGHT AWAY CONSTITUTIONAL RIGHT AWAY FROM WOMEN AROUND THE COUNTRY. DEMOCRATS SEE THIS AS A MAJOR ADVANTAGE FOR THEIR PARTY BECAUSE THE POLLS SHOW AND DID SHOW LAW ENFORCEMENT DID WHAT IT DID. MOST AMERICANS THINK THAT ROE WAS RIGHT FOR THE COUNTRY. THAT WAS ALMOST TWO THIRDS OF AMERICANS THOUGHT THAT. AND THAT MEANS THEY BELIEVE THAT THEY CAN GET VOTES AND THAT THEY CAN CHANGE STATE BY, STATE, MAYBE EVEN AT THE NATIONAL LEVEL. WHAT HAPPENED AT THE SUPREME COURT. SO IT'S IN CONTRAST TO PREVIOUS DEMOCRATIC CONVENTION AND IT REALLY DRIVES THIS THIS THE ENERGY IN THIS IN THIS ARENA WAY UP WHEN IT DOES COME TO THE PODIUM. >> IT CERTAINLY DOES. AND WE KNOW THAT IT IS AN IMPORTANT ISSUE FOR VOTERS OUT THERE IN. FACT FOR SOME OF THEM, IT'S THEIR TOP TWO. WE ALSO KNOW THAT ACCESS TO ABORTION CARE WILL BE ON THE BALLOT IN AT LEAST TEN STATES. AND THAT IS CONCERNING ABOUT HOW WILL VOTERS GO, ESPECIALLY IF THEY ARE A SINGLE ISSUE VOTER ON THAT ONE ISSUE. AND HOW DOES THAT AFFECT THE OF THE BALLOT? MARYALICE PARKS, I WANT TO CHECK IN HERE WITH YOU FOR YOUR FINAL THOUGHT. WE KNOW MINNESOTA'S ATTORNEY GENERAL, KEITH ELLISON, WILL BE SPEAKING TODAY AS WELL ON ONE OF THE FIRST MUSLIM-AMERICANS ELECTED TO CONGRESS. WHAT YOU EXPECTING TO HEAR FROM HIM? >> YEAH, OF COURSE. IT'LL BE REALLY INTERESTING TO HEAR WHAT HE HAS TO SAY ABOUT GAZA. HE REALLY COMES FROM THE PROGRESSIVE WING OF THE COUNTRY. HE'S VERY CLOSE TO SENATOR BERNIE SANDERS. A LOT OF ATTENTION BE PAID TO THAT. YOU KNOW, I DON'T KNOW IF IT'S GOING TO SORT OF SATISFY THOSE WHO WANT TO HEAR SPECIFICALLY FROM A PALESTINIAN-AMERICAN. WE HAVE HEARD CALL FOR THAT HERE ON THIS CONVENTION FLOOR. HE IS A PALESTINIAN-AMERICAN. BUT LIKE YOU SAID, HE WAS ONE OF THE FIRST MUSLIMS ELECTED TO CONGRESS. HE WILL HAVE AN INTERESTING PERSPECTIVE IN THIS MOMENT. AND OF COURSE, THERE'S JUST MORE ATTENTION ON TIM WALZ HOME STATE. I MEAN, THAT IS REALLY THE FOCUS OF THIS NIGHT. YOU KNOW WHAT? IF TIM WALZ, HIS SENIOR ADVISERS TELL ME THAT HE WANTS TO REMIND THOSE DELEGATES IN THIS ROOM THAT THEY ARE HERE BECAUSE THEY LOVE THIS COUNTRY. >> IT'S A PART OF DEMOCRATS TRYING TO TAKE BACK THIS IDEA OF WHAT COUNTS AS BEING A PATRIOT TO. ALL RIGHT, MARYALICE PARKS, OUR THANKS TO YOU AS WELL AS YOU, TERRY. AND REMINDING EVERYBODY THAT KAMALA HARRIS IS SORORITY SISTERS, CALLED HER A PERSON CALLED TO EXTRAORDINARY SERVICE.

NANCY PELOSI, HAKEEM JEFFRIES, BILL CLINTON, AND MORE, BIG NAMES IN THE DEMOCRATIC PARTY SET TO TAKE THE STAGE TONIGHT TO INTRODUCE TIM WALZ TO AMERICA. >> I DON'T NEED YOU IN OUR EXAM ROOM, I DON'T NEED YOU TO TELL US WHICH BOOKS TO READ AND YOU CAN STAY THE HELL OUT OF OUR BEDROOM. >> THE MAJOR ADDRESS WE CAN EXPECT FROM THE VP NOMINEE AS HE SELLS THE COUNTRY ON THE PAST IN THE FUTURE.

[LAUGHTER AND CHEERING] >> HIS WIFE GWEN NOT TO GET AGREEMENT. THE FORMER PRESIDENT TASKED WITH RALLYING THE NATION AROUND THE NEW DEMOCRATIC TICKET URGING AMERICA TO TURN THE PAGE FROM DONALD TRUMP. >> WE DO NOT NEED FOUR MORE YEARS OF BLUSTER AND BUMBLING AND CHAOS. WE HAVE SEEN THAT MOVIE BEFORE AND WE ALL KNOW THE SEQUEL IS USUALLY WORSE. [CHEERS AND APPLAUSE] >> OBAMA NEEDLING TRUMP AS A CANDIDATE OBSESSED WITH PETTY PERSONAL GRIEVANCES. >> THERE'S A CHILDISH NICKNAMES, THE CRAZY CONSPIRACY THEORIES, THIS WEIRD OBSESSION WITH CROWD SIZES. [CHEERS AND APPLAUSE] IT JUST GOES ON AND ON. >> FORMER FIRST LADY MICHELLE OBAMA DENOUNCING TRUMP'S YEARS OF DEEPLY PERSONAL ATTACKS AGAINST HER AND HER HUSBAND, TAKING A JAB AT TRUMP'S REFRAIN THAT UNDOCUMENTED IMMIGRANTS ARE TAKING BLACK JOBS. >> HAS LIMITED NARROW VIEW OF THE WORLD MADE HIM FEEL THREATENED BY THE EXISTENCE OF TWO HARDWORKING, HIGHLY EDUCATED AND SUCCESSFUL PEOPLE WHO HAPPEN TO BE BLACK.

[CHEERS AND APPLAUSE] >> MICHELLE OBAMA RALLYING A CONVENTION WITH THE CALL TO ACTION. >> DON'T SIT AROUND AND COMPLAIN, DO SOMETHING. [CROWD CHANTING] >> Linsey: MARY JOINS US NOW IN THE CONVENTION HALL. TIM WALZ INTRODUCING HIMSELF THE NATION TONIGHT BUT WE ARE LEARNING MORE AT BILL CLINTON'S TERM AT THE PODIUM, WHAT CAN WE EXPECT FROM HIM? >> WE WILL BE HEARING FROM FORMER PRESIDENT BILL CLINTON, WE ARE TOLD HIS TONE WILL BE HOPEFUL AND ASPIRATIONAL BUT HE IS GOING TO DRAW A VERY SHARP CONTRAST BETWEEN KAMALA HARRIS AND DONALD TRUMP WHILE HE PRAISES HARRISES SUBSTANCE AND CHARACTER. THE TEAM IS TRY TO KEEP UP THAT APPEAL TO THE WORKING CLASS VOTERS, SOMETHING BILL CLINTON KNOWS A LITTLE BIT ABOUT. >> FOR THE SECOND NIGHT IN A ROW WE AREN'T EXPECTING TO SPEAK KAMALA HARRIS IN THE HALL WHILE WALZ GIVES HIS INTRODUCTORY SPEECH IS NOT UNUSUAL? >> YES AND NO IT IS NOT CUSTOMARY THE NOMINEE IS HERE FOR THE NIGHT BEFORE -- THAT SAID KAMALA HARRIS HAS BEEN OUT THERE THROUGHOUT THESE BIG MOMENTS SO FAR. WE HAVE SEEN THEM, THE MASSIVE RALLIES -- KAMALA HARRIS -- IT WOULD BE UNDERSTANDABLE IF SHE WANTED TO GET SOME REST, TOMORROW NIGHT IS HER BIG NIGHT. SHE WILL BE GIVING WITHOUT A QUESTION THE BIGGEST, MOST IMPORTANT SPEECH OF HER POLITICAL CAREER. >> Linsey: THAT IS CERTAINLY THE CASE, MARY BRUCE OUR THANKS TO YOU AS ALWAYS. FORMER PRESIDENT TRUMP AND HIS RUNNING MATE J.D. VANCE CONTINUED A COUNTER PROGRAMMING SWING THROUGH BATTLEGROUND STATES TODAY AND STOPPING A NORTH CAROLINA. IT WAS TRUMP'S FIRST OUTDOOR RALLY SINCE THE ATTEMPT ON HIS LIFE LAST MONTH. SPEAKING FROM BEHIND A WALL OF BULLETPROOF GLASS BEFORE A TIGHTLY CONTROLLED CROWD, HIS REMARKS SENT TO FOCUS ON SECURITY, THE MILIEU ATTACKS AND GRIEVANCES THAT HERE IS ABCs RACHEL SCOTT. >> FORMER PRESIDENT DONALD TRUMP HOLDING HIS FIRST EVENT IN A BATTLEGROUND STATE SINCE THE ATTEMPT ON HIS LIFE. SPEAKING BEHIND A LARGE PANE OF BULLETPROOF GLASS, SNIPERS AND POSITION. THE EVENT WAS SUPPOSED TO BE FOCUSED ON NATIONAL SECURITY. >> IF COMRADE KAMALA WINS IS NOVEMBER WORLD WAR III IS GUARANTEED TO HAPPEN. >> QUICKLY TURNED INTO A DIFFERENT TOPIC OF MY FORMER PRESIDENT BARACK OBAMA'S TAKEDOWN LAST NIGHT. HE SPENT MORE THAN A DECADE ATTACKING OBAMA INCLUDING FALSELY QUESTIONING WHETHER HE WAS BORN IN THE UNITED STATES. >> HE WAS NASTY LAST NIGHT I TRY TO BE NICE TO PEOPLE, YOU KNOW? IT'S A LITTLE TOUGH WHEN THEY GET PERSONAL. PLEASE -- DON'T GET PERSONAL, TALK ABOUT POLICY. LET ME ASK YOU ABOUT THAT, HERE'S THE TWO QUESTIONS. SHOULD I GET PERSONAL, SHOULD I NOT GET PERSONAL? SHOULD I GET PERSONAL? [CHEERS AND APPLAUSE] SHOULD I NOT GET PERSONAL? I DON'T KNOW, MY ADVISORS ARE FIRED. [LAUGHTER] >> Linsey: RACHEL SCOTT JOINS US FROM THE CONVENTION FLOOR. TRUMP HAD SOME UNSETTLING WORDS FOR SENIOR MILITARY OFFICERS WHO HELPED CARRY OUT THE BIDEN ADMINISTRATION'S WITHDRAWAL FROM AFGHANISTAN, WHAT DID HE SAY? >> HE SAID HE WANTS THE RESIGNATIONS OF EVERY SINGLE SENIOR MILITARY OFFICER INVOLVED, THIS IS SOMETHING THE FORMER PRESIDENT REALLY ZEROS IN ON WHEN HE'S OUT ON THE CAMPAIGN TRAIL. YOU MIGHT REMER AT THE REPUBLICAN NATIONAL CONVENTION HE HAS THE FAMILIES OF THOSE WHO WERE KILLED AS THE UNITED STATES WITHDRAWS FROM AFGHANISTAN SPEAKING ON THAT STAGE HE REALLY TRIED TO MAKE THIS A MESSAGE THAT HE CONVEYS OUT ON THE CAMPAIGN TRAIL. >> HE CLAIMED KAMALA HARRIS MET WITH VLADIMIR PUTIN JUST THREE DAYS BEFORE HE INVADED UKRAINE -- ANY TRUTH TO THAT? >> THERE IS NO PUBLIC RECORD OF VICE PRESIDENT KAMALA HARRIS BEATING RUSSIAN PRESIDENT VLADIMIR PUTIN -- THE PUBLIC RECORD SHOWS SHE MET WITH UKRAINIAN PRESIDENT VLADIMIR ZELENSKYY. THERE'S NOTHING TO BACK THAT UP AT THIS TIME. >> Linsey: RACHEL SCOTT FROM THE CONVENTION HALL. "ABC NEWS" HAS LEARNED INDEPENDENT CANDIDATE ROBERT KENNEDY JR. IS PLANNING TO DROP OUT OF THE RACE. NBC'S CHIEF WHITE HOUSE CORRESPONDENT JONATHAN KARL SPOKE TO KENNEDY EARLIER ON WHAT HE'S MAKING THAT DECISION AND IF HE PLACE TO ENDORSE TRUMP. >> MULTIPLE SOURCES TELL ABC NEWS BOBBY KENNEDY JR. PLANS TO ABANDON HIS INDEPENDENT CAMPAIGN FOR PRESIDENT AND ENDORSED DONALD TRUMP, A MOVE THAT MAY COME AS EARLY AS THIS WEEK. TONIGHT WHEN I SPOKE WITH HIM, HE TOLD ME HE "WOULD NOT CONFIRM OR DENY HIS PLANS." BUT HE DID HARSHLY CRITICIZE KAMALA HARRIS' EMERGENCE AS A DEMOCRATIC NOMINEE IS SAYING "IS NOT DEMOCRACY." HE REFUSED TO SAY ANYTHING ABOUT TRUMP. TRUMP HAS BEEN COURTING KENNEDY EARLIER THIS SUMMER CALLING HIM A MEMBER OF THE KENNEDY TEAM RECORDING THE VIDEO THAT WAS LATER POSTED ON SOCIAL MEDIA. >> I THINK IT WOULD BE SO GOOD FOR YOU. WE ARE GOING TO WIN. >> ON THAT CALL HE SEEMED TO EMBRACE IT DEBUNKED INFORMATION KENNEDY HAS BEEN PUSHING ABOUT CHILDHOOD VACCINES. SOURCES SAY KENNEDY'S ENDORSEMENT WOULD COME WITH A PRICE, POSITION IT IN A TRUMP ADMINISTRATION. JUST YESTERDAY HIS RUNNING MATE TELLING "ABC NEWS" IT WOULD REQUIRE A SIGNIFICANT COMMITMENT BY TRUMP TO GIVE BOBBY TRUE AUTHORITY TO EXECUTE. TODAY, DONALD TRUMP JR. SUGGESTED KENNEDY COULD BE GIVEN CONTROL OF A FEDERAL AGENCY. >> I LOVE THE IDEA OF GIVING HIM SOME SORT OF ROLE AND AT SOME MAJOR THREE LETTER ENTITY AND LET HIM BLOW IT UP. >> HIS INDEPENDENT CAMPAIGN WAS ONCE PULLING AT 15% BUT HAS FALLEN AFTER STRANGE MISSTEPS INCLUDING ADMITTING TO A BIZARRE INCIDENCE TEN YEARS AGO HE DUMPED A DEAD BEAR CUB IN CENTRAL PARK. >> I WASN'T DRINKING OF COURSE BUT PEOPLE WHO WERE DRINKING WITH ME SUGGESTED THIS IDEA -- IT WOULD BE AMUSING FOR WHOEVER FOUND IT OR SOMETHING. >> NEARLY THE ENTIRE KENNEDY FAMILY HAS REJECTED HIS CAMPAIGN PUBLICLY THROWING THEIR SUPPORT TO PRESIDENT BIDEN AND NOW TO VICE PRESIDENT HARRIS. TRUMP HIMSELF HAS TRASHED KENNEDY CALLING HIM "ONE OF THE MOST LIBERAL LUNATICS EVER TO RUN FOR OFFICE." AND "A PHONY RADICAL LEFT FOOL." WE KNOW KENNEDY REACHED OUT TO THE HARRIS CAMPAIGN CIGNA MEETING WITH VICE PRESIDENT HARRIS, THE CAMPAIGN DOES NOT DENY REPORTS THAT KENNEDY WANTED TO TALK ABOUT A CABINET POST IN A HARRIS ADMINISTRATION IN EXCHANGE FOR HIS ENDORSEMENT. THE MEETING HOWEVER NEVER HAPPENS BECAUSE THE HARRIS CAMPAIGN NEVER RESPONDED TO KENNEDY REACHING OUT TO. MEANWHILE THE DEMOCRATIC NATIONAL COMMITTEE, SENIOR ADVISOR MARY BETH CAHILL PUT OUT THIS STATEMENT ON THE REPORTED ENDORSEMENT "DESPERATE MEN DO DESPERATE THINGS. RFK JR. WAS RECRUITED BY MAGA AND PARROTED MAGA TALKING POINTS. NO ONE SHOULD BE SHOCKED HE FORMALIZED THIS RELATIONSHIP AND ATTEMPT TO MAINTAIN RELEVANCE. >> Linsey: JOINING US KNOW IF YOU SEE WASHINGTON BUREAU CHIEF RICK KLEIN. TONIGHT SOUTHERN BORDER POLICY FRONT AND CENTER DEMOCRATS ARE LAYING OUT FOR AMERICANS THE WORK THEY HAVE DONE WITH THE HELP OF MEMBERS OF CONGRESS, CAN YOU EXCLUDE THE MESSAGING? >> WE ARE GOING TO HEAR FROM SEVERAL DEMOCRATIC SENATORS, PART OF THE NEGOTIATIONS -- WANT TO GET THAT BILL DONE. AS WE HEARD FROM MANY PEOPLE THIS WEEK IT WAS DONALD TRUMP OR ONE THAT BORDER DEAL TO BE KILLED. THE BATTLEGROUND STATES IN OUR LATEST 538 PULLING AVERAGE SHOW A BIG PORTION IS CLOSE EVERYWHERE INCLUDING IN THE BORDER STATES OF ARIZONA AND NEVADA, A LOT OF PEOPLE CARE ABOUT THE BORDER IN THESE STATES AS WELL AS ALL AROUND THE COUNTRY. LOOK AT THE TOP ISSUES THAT PEOPLE NAME OF. IMMIGRATION IN THE BORDER IS NAMED BY 70% OF AMERICANS OVERALL AND TRUMP HAS A TEN-POINT ADVANTAGE IN THAT CATEGORY. LET SOMETHING KAMALA HARRIS WANTS TO CUT INTO HIS LEAD AMONG THOSE KINDS OF VOTERS BY TALKING ABOUT THIS IN A LITTLE BIT DIFFERENT LIGHT. >> CERTAINLY ALL EYES ON TIM WALZ TONIGHT AS THE CAMPAIGN RELEASES A NEW VIDEO THAT REINTRODUCES HIM TO THE NATION. WHAT CAN WE EXPECT ON THAT FR FRONT? >> A LOT OF PEOPLE HAVE GOTTEN TO KNOW COACH AT WALZ, IT'S BEEN A VERY SUCCESSFUL ROLLOUT SO FAR. YOU CAN SEE THE VIDEO THEY PUT OUT IT'S AN INTRODUCTION LIKE FEW OTHERS. PEOPLE LIKE THAT MIDWESTERN CHARM HE'S BROUGHT, THE FAVORABILITY RATING WE SEE IN OUR LATEST POLL HAS HIM WAY ABOVE J.D. VANCE. NINE POINTS ABOVE WATER, THAT'S REALLY HARD TO DO THESE DAYS, MORE FAVORABLY VIEWED THAN UNFAVORABLE. IT'S THE OPPOSITE FOR J.D. VANCE, 32-42 FOR HIM. LESS THE VIEW THEY ARE LOOKING TO LOOK AT. WE ARE SEEING PRETTY VAST APPROVAL FOR TIM WALZ'S SELECTION, IT HAS BEEN QUITE A HONEYMOON FOR TIM WALZ AND KAMALA HARRIS, TONIGHT IS A VERY BIG NIGHT FOR HIM. >> Linsey: WE ARE REPORTING ON THE NEWS THAT RFK MIGHT BE ON THE VERGE OF PUTTING HIS SUPPORT BEHIND TRUMP, DO YOU THINK THEY WILL FALL IN LINE? >> THE QUESTION IS HOW MANY SUPPORTERS THERE ARE. HE WAS WELL INTO THE DOUBLE DIGITS FOR A LONG TIME. AND OUR LATEST BULLET CAME IN, HE HAD DROPPED ALL THE WEIGHT DOWN TO 5%. THAT'S NOT A LOT OF VOTERS BUT OF COURSE IT MATTERS WHERE THEY ARE AND WHERE THEY GO. THE QUESTION OF WHERE THEY GO IS A REAL ONE. WE ASKED PEOPLE IN THIS POLL, IF WE DID FALLS IN THE DIFFERENT WAYS WE ASKED THEM ALL CHOICES INCLUDING KENNEDY, JUST IN A TO GO AWAY. KAMALA HARRIS ACTUALLY GETS MORE KENNEDY VOTERS THEN DONALD TRUMP DOES BUT THE BIGGEST NUMBER OVERALL IS ACTUALLY SOMEONE ELSE ENTIRELY. A LOT OF THOSE PEOPLE SEEM TO BE HOLDOUTS WERE BOBBY KENNEDY, SOME MAY BE GOING FOR A THIRD PARTY CANDIDATES. THOSE ARE VOTERS DONALD TRUMP WANTS TO GET BACK AND THERE'S A LOT OF EVIDENCE IN BATTLEGROUND STATES IT COULD BE MORE THAN THE MARGIN OF ELECTION BETWEEN TRUMP AND HARRIS, THE NUMBER OF FORMER KENNEDY VOTERS -- DO THEY GO BACK INTO TRUMP'S FOLDER DO THEY GO WITH THE DEMOCRATS GIVEN THAT BOBBY KENNEDY'S NAME IS ONE OF THE MOST FAMOUS IN THE HISTORY OF DEMOCRATIC POLITICS. >> RICK KLEIN OUR THANKS TO YOU AS ALWAYS. STILL HIM SO MUCH MORE TO GET TO YOU HERE ON THIS SPECIAL EDITION OF ABC NEWS PRIME. TONIGHT'S THEME IS A FIGHT FOR OUR FREEDOMS. GOVERNOR TIM WALZ WILL ACCEPT THE NOMINATION FOR VICE PRESIDENT TONIGHT, JUST A LITTLE MORE THAN TO GO WEEKS AFTER HE GOT THE CALL. IT'S EXPECTED TO BE A WAY NOT ONLY TO SHOW HIS POLICIES BUT ALSO WHO HE IS AS A PERSON IN THE PARTY HOPES HIS RURAL ROUTES WILL VOTERS LIVING OUTSIDE THE CITY CENTERS. WE WILL TRAVEL TO RURAL GEORGIA TO SEE WHETHER HIS PRESENCE COULD HELP VICE PRESIDENT HARRIS GET ELECTED PRESIDENT.

HIS RURAL ROOTS HAD A LOT TO DO WITH HIS SELECTION HOPING HIS FOLKSY WAY WOULD RESONATE ESPECIALLY WITH VOTERS OUTSIDE OF CITY CENTERS LIKE SWING VOTERS, EVEN A FEW REPUBLICANS. SPOKE TO DEMOCRATIC VOTERS ABOUT HOW TIM WALZ COULD TAKE BACK RURAL AMERICA WHICH HAS TURNED SOLIDLY RED IN THE PAST FEW DECADES. >> THIS IS THE COURTHOUSE BUILDING HERE. THESE STORIES HAVE BEEN HERE FOREVER. IT'S ALL FAMILY OWNED STORES. >> IT FEELS LIKE A SMALL TOWN. >> EVERYBODY SEEMS TO KNOW EVERYBODY. >> SMALL-TOWN AMERICA MEANS A LOT TO LAM IN HIS HOME. SPEAK OF THE OTHER BAD THING ARE THE NATS, EVERYBODY THINKS PEOPLE IN STATESBORO ARE FRIENDLY BECAUSE WE ARE ALWAYS DOING THIS. THEY THINK WE ARE WAVING AT THEM. >> WHERE MAINSTREET SERVES AS THE BEATING HEART OF THIS SMALL CITY, SO MUCH THAT STATESBORO HAS FOUR. SPEAK OF THE THING I LOVE ABOUT THIS TOWN AS THERE ARE A FOUR MAIN STREETS. NORTH MAIN, SOUTH MAIN, EAST MAIN AND WEST MAIN. >> THIS IS MAIN STREETS. >> YOU ARE IN THE CENTER OF TOWN. >> AND WHERE PROBLEMS ARE SETTLED A LOT DIFFERENTLY THAN THEY ARE IN WASHINGTON, D.C. >> PEOPLE ARE FOR THE MOST PART VERY FRIENDLY. THEY WILL HAVE A CONVERSATION WITH YOU, EVEN IF THEY DISAGREE WITH YOU. >> AND A FAIR NUMBER OF PEOPLE HERE DISAGREE WITH LEN. IN A DEEP RED AREA HE'S PRACTICALLY AN EXTINCT POLITICAL SPECIES. >> DEMOCRATS ARE NEVER GOING TO TAKE OVER THE COUNTY. >> THEY ARE NEVER GOING TO TAKE OVER MOST RURAL COUNTIES. >> A RURAL DEMOCRATS. EVERY WEEK AT THIS COFFEE SHOP THE LOCAL DEMOCRATS MEET AND TALK STRATEGY. LEN RUNNING FOR COUNTY COMMISSION IS ALSO IN CHARGE OF AN INITIATIVE TO ATTRACT RURAL VOTERS TO THE STATE DEMOCRATIC PARTY. SPEAK IT WAS IT HARD TO MAKE INROADS AS A DEMOCRAT AND RURAL AREAS. >> IT'S VERY HARD. IF YOU LOOK AT BULLITT COUNTY DOWN HERE, WE ARE PROBABLY CLOSE TO 70% REPUBLICAN. THIS IS A DEEP REPUBLICAN AREA. >> YOU KNOW THE KNOCK ON DEMOCRATS IS THEY LEFT RURAL VOTERS BEHIND. LONG AGO. >> YEAH, SOME WANT TO. IF YOU LOOK AT THIS COUNTY AT ONE TIME IT WAS A DEMOCRATIC COUNTY. TALKING TO REPUBLICANS THEY FEEL WITHIN TEN YEARS WITH THE MANUFACTURING JOBS BEING MOVED IN, THIS COULD BE A DEMOCRATIC COUNTY AGAIN. >> WHY IS THAT? >> I THINK MORE MIDDLE-CLASS PEOPLE TEND TO SIDE WITH THE DEMOCRATIC VALUES THAT WE HAVE IS A PARTY. >> A BIG DRAW FOR DEMOCRATS HERE COME UP VICE PRESIDENT KAMALA HARRIS NEW RUNNING MATE -- MINNESOTA GOVERNOR TIM WALZ. KNOWN FOR HIS RURAL ROOTS. >> I SPENT THE SUMMERS WORKING ON THE FAMILY FARM. MY MOM AND DAD TAUGHT US, SHOW GENEROSITY TOWARDS YOUR NEIGHBORS AND WORK FOR A COMMON GOOD TO. >> HE UNDERSTANDS THE ISSUES OF RURAL AMERICA. ♪ ♪ >> WHILE DEMOCRATS ARE HOPING RURAL VOTERS CAN HELP GIVE THEM AN EDGE IN GEORGIA, A MOST WIN STATE AND ACROSS THE COUNTRY. >> WE ARE IN MARJORIE TAYLOR GREENE'S DISTRICT RIGHT NOW. >> DEEP POCKETS OF MANY OF THESE RURAL AREAS ARE STILL TRUMP COUNTRY. >> YOU SEE A LOT OF TRUMP FLAGS IN THE YARD, WE ARE LITTLE BLUE DOTS IN A BIG RED SEA. >> THAT HASN'T STOPPED SOME VOTERS LIKE ROBERT HUTCHINSON AND HER DAUGHTER. >> I LOVE TIM WALZ I THINK HE'S GREAT, HE'S A REALLY SMART PICK FOR VICE PRESIDENT. I THINK IT'S MORE ABOUT PERSONALITY. HIS PERSONALITY COMES ACROSS AS VERY OPEN AND FRIENDLY. >> I FEEL LIKE HE IS GENUINELY A PERSON WHO HAS HIGH MORALS, A GOOD, UPSTANDING PERSON THAT REPRESENTS THE OLDER STYLE OF RESPECTABILITY, THAT I THINK OLDER VOTERS USE TO AND NEWER VOTERS STILL WANT TO LEAN ON AND BELIEVE IS THE RIGHT THING AND A GOOD THING. >> PROBABLY ONE OF THE REASONS WHY RURAL GEORGIA HAS BECOME SLIGHTLY MORE COMPETITIVE AS A LOT OF THE CULTURE WARS THAT DEFINED AMERICA FOR GENERATIONS -- THERE ARE NO ISSUES RATHER THAN JUST ONE SOCIAL ISSUE OF DRIVING PEOPLE VOTE. THE ECONOMIC ISSUE IS WHAT IS PUSHING PEOPLE. YOU HAVE NOT HAD THE ECONOMIC GROWTH OUTSIDE OF THESE URBAN NODES. >> TWO HOURS AWAY IN JACKSON COUNTY, PETER FULLER THE CHAIR OF THE DEMOCRATIC PARTY KNOWS FLIPPING ANY PART OF RURAL GEORGIA IS A TALL ORDER. DONALD TRUMP GOT 78% OF THE VOTE IN JACKSON COUNTY IN 2020. >> THESE ARE COUNTIES THAT HAD BEEN LIKE THIS FOR A WHILE. THEY ARE LONG-TERM PROJECTS. EVEN THOUGH THEY ARE SPREAD ACROSS THE STATE MOST OF THE COMMUNITIES ARE AGRICULTURE BASED. WE HAVE ISSUES OF EITHER NOT HAVING POPULATION GROWTH OR LOSS IN SOME CASES. YOU HAVE SOME ISSUES OF HEALTH CARE, THAT'S A BIG ONE RIGHT THERE. AND TRANSLATING SOME OF THE NATIONAL POLICIES INTO WHAT IS RELATABLE HERE IN JACKSON COUNTY, I GUESS THAT'S OUR JOB. BUT IT'S A LOT EASIER TO DO WITH SOMEBODY LIKE TIM WALZ. >> HE TOLD US EVEN WHEN TALKING WITH DEEP RED VOTERS HERE, HE BELIEVES DEMOCRATS SHOULDN'T BE AFRAID TO TACKLE THE ELEPHANT IN THE ROOM, DONALD TRUMP. >> WE'VE GOT TO PUNCH BACK, WE HAVE TO PUNCH BACK ON THE FALSEHOODS TOLD. >> THEY GO AFTER GUYS LIKE ME BUT THEY DON'T GO AFTER PEOPLE WHO KILL PEOPLE IT'S A SHAME WHAT HAS HAPPENED IN OUR COUNTRY. >> DO YOU THINK HARRIS PUTS RURAL AMERICA MORE IN PLAY? >> YES. SHE DOESN'T HAVE A RURAL BACKGROUND. >> TIM DOES, THAT WAS KEY. >> HE TOOK US TO SEE THAT ENTHUSIASM FOR OURSELVES. IN A CAMPAIGN MEETING AT THE HOME OF A FELLOW COUNTY DEMOCRATS. >> DOES TIM WALZ PLAY A ROLE IN THAT? DO YOU THINK HE CHANGES THE DYNAMIC A LITTLE BIT? YOU VERY MUCH ARE REACTING. >> ABSOLUTELY. RURAL PEOPLE ARE VERY DYNAMIC AND PERSONAL. THEY WANT TO COMMUNITY, THEY WANT TO BELONG TO SOMETHING. I THINK HE BRINGS OUT OPTIONS TO BELONG. COACHING, TEACHING, MILITARY. >> VOTERS HERE TOLD US THEY HAVEN'T BEEN THIS EXCITED FOR A PRESIDENTIAL RACE IN DECADES. >> THEY ARE GETTING INVOLVED, THEY ARE VOLUNTEERING. >> IT WASN'T THE FIRST TIME WE HAD HEARD THAT. >> I THINK THIS IS THE FIRST TIME PEOPLE ARE GETTING EXCITED ABOUT WHAT CAN REALLY HAPPEN NOW. >> ESPECIALLY FOR DEMOCRATS, SINCE OBAMA. THIS IS THE FIRST TIME WE FEEL LIKE CHANGE IS POSSIBLE. >> WHAT REMAINS TO BE SEEN IS IF THAT HOPE AND EXCITEMENT CAN TRANSLATE INTO VOTES AND VIC VICTORY. >> Linsey: OUR THANKS TO JAY O'BRIEN, GOVERNOR JARED POLIS ON THE STAGE THERE, THE GOVERNOR FROM COLORADO. WE HAVE MUCH MORE TO GET TO ON THIS SPECIAL EDITION OF ABC NEWS LIVE PRIME TIME, THE DEMOCRATIC NATIONAL CONVENTION. THE PARTY HAS BEEN WORKING TO DISPLAY KEY POINTS ON ITS PLATFORM ALL LEADING UP TO VICE PRESIDENT KAMALA HARRIS ACCEPTED THE NOMINATION TOMORROW AS WE LOOK BACK AT HER MOTHER PRESIDENT TO ACCEPT THE NOMINATION IN 2,000, AL GORE. >> I KNOW ONE THING ABOUT THE JOB OF THE PRESIDENT, IT IS THE ONLY JOB IN THE CONSTITUTION THAT IS CHARGED WITH THE RESPONSIBILITY OF FIGHTING FOR ALL THE PEOPLE, NOT JUST THE PEOPLE OF ONE STATE OR ONE DISTRICT, NOT JUST THE WEALTHY OR THE POWERFUL, ALL THE PEOPLE ESPECIALLY THOSE WHO NEED A BOY'S. THOSE WHO NEED A CHAMPION, THOSE WHO NEED TO BE LIFTED UP SO THEY ARE NEVER LEFT BEHIND. I SAY TO YOU TONIGHT, IF YOU ENTRUST ME WITH THE PRESIDENCY, I WILL FIGHT FOR YOU. ♪ ♪ AND SO HERE TONIGHT IN THE NAME OF ALL OF WORKING FAMILIES WHO ARE THE STRENGTH AND THE SOUL OF AMERICA, I ACCEPT YOUR NOMINATION FOR PRESIDENT OF THE UNITED STATES OF AMERICA. ♪ ♪ never makes it into the bowling our my gut knew this was not a young girl who just ran away new information pools of blood were found by detectives who just love to have her pack what they do in the world.

We'll find out what happened at wit's end the hunt for a killer only on Hulu. Don't cover it so many stories hundreds of them. But this one really stuck with me. Everybody's jaw dropped. No one really believed he was responsible. I did not kill Devon. I've never forgotten my interview with Anthony I speak with him again as a grown man. Why have you decided to talk about this? I kept saying it's not done. There is still an unsolved murder than 20/20 True Crime event special Friday night at 9:00 8:00 Central on ABC Betrayal is one of the hardest types of trauma to overcome. This is her knight in shining armor. Everything felt right all the sudden. I found this hidden folder. I opened it. I don't think I can say I'm sorry shocking my stomach just dropped. He just really didn't think I had it in me Lisa. So I did betrayaa father's secret the all new season on Hulu. GMA surprise people across the country helping find thousands and unclaimed money.

THIS IS GOVERNOR TIM WALZ'S BIG NIGHT, AN OPPORTUNITY FOR HIM TO MAKE HIS CASE TO THE AMERICAN PEOPLE AS VICE PRESIDENTIAL NOMINEE TO THE DEMOCRATIC PARTY. WE WANT TO BRING IN THE WHITE HOUSE CORRESPONDENT, WHAT ARE YOU EXPECTING TO HEAR FROM GOVERNOR WALZ? >> HIS TEAM TELLS ME HE'S GOING TO TALK ABOUT THOSE RURAL VALUES LIKE THEY'VE BEEN TALKING ABOUT ALL NIGHT, HOW HE GREW UP IN A SMALL TOWN IN NEBRASKA, VALUES HE CARRIED WITH HIM THAT THEY SAY HE WANTS TO CARRY WITH THEM ALL THE WAY TO THE WHITE HOUSE. I IMAGINE HE WILL TALK ABOUT HIS RECORD AS GOVERNOR. HE PASSED SWEEPING LEGISLATION TO RAISE MINIMUM WAGE, TO WORK ON PAID LEAVE. DEMOCRATS WANT TO SHOW THEY CAN DELIVER, THAT'S A BIG PART OF WHY HE WAS ADDED TO THIS TICKETS. HE WAS ADDED JUST TO FLIP THAT SCRIPT, TAKE BACK A NARRATIVE THAT DEMOCRATS HAVE GIVEN UP ON RURAL AMERICA. HE WANTS TO SHOW WHAT IT IS BEING A RURAL DEMOCRATS. HE'S GOING TO TALK ABOUT HOW THOSE IN THE ROOM, THOSE WORKING FOR HIS CAMPAIGN LOVE AMERICA. THIS HAS BEEN A THEME I THINK THEY HAVE STARTED TO DEVELOP, WE HAVE STARTED TO HEAR DEMOCRATS DEVELOP OVER THE LAST FEW DAYS, THIS IDEA THEY ARE TAKING BACK WHAT IT MEANS TO BE A PATRIOT OR AT LEAST ARGUING REPUBLICANS DON'T GET TO DEFINE WHAT IT MEANS TO BE A PATRIOTS. WE HEARD THE OBAMA'S HINT ON THAT A LITTLE BIT, REPUBLICANS TRY TO SAY ONE KIND OF AMERICAN COUNTS MORE, DEMOCRATS WANT TO PUSH BACK ON THAT. >> Linsey: FOOTBALL COACH, TEACHER, VETERAN, GOVERNOR, WHAT OTHER ASPECTS OF HIS RECORD AND PERSONAL HISTORY WILL BE HIGHLIGHTED TONIGHT? >> I SPOKE TO SOME OF HIS FORMER STUDENTS EARLIER, THEY TALKED ABOUT HOW HE WAS A TEACHER WHO WAS REALLY INVOLVED AND STOOD UP FOR THE MARGINALIZED. I TALKED TO ONE STUDENT HE SAID IN THE 90s, HE WANTED TO COME OUT AS IT STUDENTS, AND TIM WALZ WAS THE TEACHER WHO BACKED THE NEW-STRAIGHT ALLIANCE AT THE HIGH SCHOOL. I IMAGINE THOSE STORIES WILL BE A BIG PART OF TONIGHT. I ASKED A CAMPAIGN WHETHER HE WOULD ADDRESS THE CRITICISM FROM REPUBLICANS ABOUT HIS SERVICE RECORD I WAS TOLD NO THEY FEEL LIKE THEY HAVE ADDRESSED THAT. BUT THERE IS GOING TO BE AN INTRODUCTORY VIDEO WHERE THERE WILL BE VOICES FROM PEOPLE WHO SERVED ALONGSIDE HIM IN THE NATIONAL GUARD, COUNTERING THAT CRITICISM AND PROVIDING A CHARACTER WITNESS. >> WE WILL ALSO HERE TONIGHT FROM MARYLAND GOVERNOR WES MOORE, WHAT CAN YOU TELL US! >> THEY WANT TO HIGHLIGHT THOSE WHO ARE UP-AND-COMING IN THE PARTY AND THAT IS A LOT OF WHAT THEY ARE TRYING TO DO. KEITH ELLISON ALSO TAKING THE STAGE, MINNESOTA IS GOING TO BE HIGHLIGHTED A LOT TONIGHT. WES MOORE, THE GOVERNOR FROM MARYLAND, HE'S GOING TO TALK ABOUT THE BRIDGE COLLAPSED THERE. NATIONAL HEADLINES FOR SO LONG. HE'S GOING TO TALK ABOUT WHAT THE BIDEN-HARRIS ADMINISTRATION DID TO SUPPORT HIM BUT ALSO ABOUT HIS OWN PERSONAL RELATIONSHIP WITH TIM WALZ. ONE OF HIS STAFFERS THERE WITH THE GOVERNOR'S OFFICE TOLD ME WHEN HE WAS FIRST ELECTED TIM WALZ PERSONALLY REACHED OUT AND OFFERED TO BE A SOUNDING BOARD FOR HIM IN THE TWO OF THEM STRUCK UP A PERSONAL RELATIONSHIP, THAT'S PART OF WHAT HE IS GOING TO HIGHLIGHT HE'S ANOTHER GOVERNOR WHO THINKS HE IS DELIVERING FOR A STATE, DEMOCRATS WANT TO SHOW THEY CAN GET THINGS DONE ACROSS THE COUNTRY. >> Linsey: ONCE CONSIDERED TO BE ON THE SHORT-LIST FOR THE VP PICK. I WANT TO TURN NOW TO THE FLOOR WERE THE ATTORNEY GENERAL FOR MINNESOTA KEITH ELLISON CURRENTLY AT THE MIC. >> KAMALA AND TIM UNDERSTAND THE LEGACY OF GEORGE FLOYD TO. NO ONE IS ABOVE THE LAW AND NO ONE IS BENEATH IT. NO ONE IS OUTSIDE THE CIRCLE OF OUR COMPASSION. IN THE REPUBLICAN PARTY, EVERYONE THINKS THEY ARE ABOVE THE LAW. NEARLY A DOZEN OF THEIR OWN LAWYERS ARE FACING SERIOUS CHARGES, EVEN THEIR LAWYERS NEED LAWYERS. THESE CON ARTISTS ARE TRAFFICKING IN THE DEFECTIVE GOODS OF DIVISION, EXCLUSION, AND FEAR. FRIENDS, SELLING DEFECTIVE GOODS IS A SCAM. LIKE KAMALA HARRIS, I AM AN ATTORNEY GENERAL. [CHEERS AND APPLAUSE] ATTORNEY GENERAL'S KNOW WHAT THEY SCAM IS WHEN THEY SEE IT. LIKE MY FRIEND TISH JAMES FOR EXAMPLE FROM NEW YORK. AMERICA, WE WANT TO BE SCAMMED AGAIN. WE'RE NOT GOING BACK, WE ARE GOING FORWARD TO. KAMALA HARRIS AND TIM WALZ ARE READY TO LEAD US THERE. I'VE WORKED SIDE-BY-SIDE WITH TIM WALZ FOR 18 YEARS, HIS OFFICE IS RIGHT ACROSS THE HALL FROM MINE. I'VE SEEN HIM DELIVER FOR THE PEOPLE OF THE STATE OF MINNESOTA EVERY DAY. EVERYBODY KNOWS MINNESOTA IS ONE OF THE BEST STATES TO LIVE IN, TO RAISE A FAMILY. TO DO BUSINESS, AND WE GOT THE BEST VOTER TURNOUT IN AMERICA. [CHEERS AND APPLAUSE] FACTS. KAMALA AND TIM, THEY FIGHT FOR THE PEOPLE. >> Linsey: KEITH ELLISON THERE COME ATTORNEY GENERAL FROM MINNESOTA SAME TO HAVE THE BEST TURN OUT THE COUNTRY. I WANT TO BRING AN DEMOCRATIC STRATEGIST HEIDI HEITKAMP, SHE'S BACK WITH US ALONG WITH "ABC NEWS" CONTRIBUTOR -- DEMOCRATS HAVE CONTINUED TO WARN AMERICANS ABOUT PROJECT 2025 AND THE CONSERVATIVE AGENDA, DO YOU THINK IT'S WORKING? >> I THINK THE MORE PEOPLE HEAR ABOUT IT'S THE MORE THEY REALIZE THIS IS AN AGENDA THAT DOES TAKE THEM BACK AND I THINK THE FACT THAT TRUMP IS TRYING TO RUN AWAY FROM IT, HE SAYS IT'S NOT ON MY WATCH, THAT'S NOT WHAT I BELIEVE TELLS YOU EVERYTHING YOU NEED TO KNOW. THERE'S A LOT OF EVIDENCE OUT THERE THAT THIS WAS CREATED WITH HIS ASSISTANCE AND HIS KNOWLEDGE AND CERTAINLY WITH THE VICE PRESIDENT NOMINEE ON THE REPUBLICAN SIDE WORKING WITH THE TEAM TO DEVELOP THIS POLICY. >> Linsey: YOUR RESPONSE, YOU THINK THIS IS A SCARE TACTIC? >> IT IS A SCARE TACTIC, BUT IT HAS BEEN AN EFFECTIVE SCARE TACTIC. IT'S JUST A VAGUE AND JUST UNKNOWN ENOUGH THAT DEMOCRATS CAN POUR ANY CONTENT THEY WANT INTO IT. A LOT OF THE POPULAR LEFT-WING MEMES ABOUT WHAT IT SUPPOSEDLY CONTAINS OUR TRUE BUT THEY HAVE BROKEN THROUGH. IT IS ENOUGH OF A PROBLEM THAT TRUMP IS RUNNING AWAY FROM IT, THE RNC IS PUTTING OUT MAILERS WHICH DISTANCED THEMSELVES FROM IT. I THINK BASED ON WHO'S TALKING IN HOW THEY ARE TALKING, YOU HAVE TO SAY THIS TACTIC HAS BEEN WORKING. >> THE ECONOMY HAS BEEN A WITNESS FOR THE HARRIS CAMPAIGN. THERE'S A LOT OF UNION SUPPORTED WE HEARD FROM SHAWN FAIN EARLIER THIS WEEK -- HOW IS THAT A STRATEGY ATTEMPTING TO IMPROVE OR BEEF UP THEIR TALKING POINTS? >> WITH UNIONS THAT USED TO BE UNION MEMBERS VOTED AS A BLOCK AND WE KNOW THEY DON'T ANYMORE. YOU HAVE A LOT OF UNION LEADER SUPPORT BUT WE HAVE LOST SOME OF THE MAINSTREAM. THE WAY YOU GET THEM BACK IS THROUGH THEIR POCKETBOOK AND YOU HAVE TO HAVE REALISTIC POLICIES THAT ADDRESS THEIR CONCERNS, WHETHER IT'S HEALTH INSURANCE, WHETHER IT'S HEALTHY COSTS, GROCERY COSTS OR GASOLINE COSTS, THERE HAS TO BE REAL THINKING INTO THAT PROPOSAL. SHE FLOATED ONE -- IT'S NOT ONE AND DONE. YOU ARE GOING TO HEAR MORE AND MORE DETAILS ABOUT HER ECONOMIC POLICY AS THE CAMPAIGN GOES ON. >> I WANT TO DIP IN IF YOU WILL STICK WITH US FOR A MINUTE, WE HAVE DANA NESSEL ON THE STAGE RIGHT NOW IT'S TAKE A LISTEN TO HER, ATTORNEY GENERAL OF MICHIGAN. >> LET ME TELL YOU, BEING ATTORNEY GENERAL IS A TOUGH JOB. BUT AS CALIFORNIA'S ATTORNEY GENERAL, KAMALA HARRIS NEVER SHIED AWAY FROM A GOOD FIGHT. SHE HAS HELD ACCOUNTABLE ENVIRONMENTAL POLLUTERS, ABUSERS, AND TRANSNATIONAL GANGS. BUT WHAT REALLY STANDS OUT IS WHEN SHE STOOD UP AND PROTECTED HER CONSTITUENTS FREEDOMS. IN 2011 SHE REFUSED TO DEFEND CALIFORNIA'S BAN ON SAME-SEX MARRIAGE. [CHEERS AND APPLAUSE] SHE REFUSED TO ARGUE THAT SOME FAMILIES SHOULD HAVE FEWER RIGHTS THAN OTHER FAMILIES. IT MEANT A LOT, SHE WAS FIGHTING FOR FAMILIES LIKE MINE. IN 2022 I FACED A SIMILAR SITUATION WHEN AFTER ROE V. WADE WAS OVERTURNED, MICHIGAN'S ARCHAIC ABORTION BAN WAS RESURRECTED. BUT VICE PRESIDENT HARRIS HAD MY BACK AND SHE REMINDED ME THAT PROTECTING PEOPLE'S LIVES AND DEFENDING THEIR RIGHTS IS OUR JOB. >> Linsey: THE ATTORNEY GENERAL OF MICHIGAN RIGHT THERE. I WANT TO BRING YOU BACK IN H HERE, WE HEARD HER ON THE STAGE TO TALK ABOUT GAY RIGHTS, ABORTION HAS BEEN A BIG ISSUE DEMOCRATS HAVE A TALKING ABOUT, WE HEARD FOR THE PRESIDENT TRUMP SAY HE THINKS ABORTION IS GOING TO BE A SMALL ISSUE COME NOVEMBER. YOUR RESPONSE TO THAT? DO YOU THINK ABORTION IS GOING TO BE EFFECTIVE AND BENEFIT DEMOCRATS ON NOVEMBER 5TH? NOT JUST OF THE TOP OF THE TICKET BUT AT SOME OF THE DOWN-BALLOT RACES AS WELL? >> CERTAINLY THE WAY DEMOCRATS ARE BETTING THEY ARE PUTTING A LOT OF CHIPS ON THAT ISSUE, EVEN THOUGH SINCE DOBBS CAME OUT, NO INCUMBENT TO PRO-LIFE REPUBLICAN SENATOR OR GOVERNOR HAS LOST A RACE. WE'LL SEE IF THEY ARE OVER INVESTING THAT A LITTLE. I THINK THE ECONOMY IS GOING TO BE THE TOP ISSUE. DEMOCRATS ARE STILL BEHIND ON THAT ISSUE, VOTERS TRUST TRUMP MORE THAN THEY TRUST HARRIS ON IT AND I DON'T KNOW THAT VIBES IN THE ABORTION ARE GOING TO BE ENOUGH TO OVERCOME THAT. >> HEIDI'S EYES LIT UP, I WISH YOU GUYS COULD'VE HAD A SPLIT SCREEN THERE. >> THINK ABOUT THIS, IF YOU THINK ABOUT ABORTION AND THINK ABOUT THE MIDTERMS. THE MIDTERM WAS SUPPOSED TO BE ABOUT THE ECONOMY. INFLATION WAS RAGING MUCH HIGHER THAN IT IS NOW, PEOPLE WERE MUCH MORE DISSATISFIED BUT YET WE WON THE MIDTERMS AND HOW WE WON THE MIDTERMS WAS SAYING WE ARE GOING TO PROTECT YOUR REPRODUCTIVE RIGHTS. WITHOUT THE REVERSAL OF ROE V. WADE I THINK THE MIDTERMS WOULD HAVE BEEN A BLOODBATH FOR THE DEMOCRATS. I DON'T THINK YOU CAN DISCOUNT THIS AT THE MARGIN ESPECIALLY THAT ALL IMPORTANT SUBURBAN WOMAN VOTER WHO IS GOING TO SAY I DON'T LIKE THE PRICE OF GROCERIES BUT IF MY DAUGHTER IS IN A SITUATION WHERE SHE HAS BEEN RAPED AND CAN'T GET THE HEALTH CARE SHE NEEDS UNFOLDING WITH THE TEAM THAT WILL PROTECT MY DAUGHTER. >> WHY IN THOSE VERY SAME MIDTERMS THAT YOU HAVE REPUBLICAN GOVERNOR AFTER REPUBLICAN GOVERNOR WHO HAD SIGNED RESTRICTIONS ON ABORTION WIN BY LANDSLIDES IN STATES THAT HAD RECENTLY BEEN THE SWING STATES? IT HAPPENED IN IOWA, IT HAPPENED IN FLORIDA, IT HAPPENED IN GEORGIA, IT HAPPENED IN NEW HAMPSHIRE. I THINK THE DEMOCRATS HAVE MISS READ THE 2022 ELECTIONS TO THINK THIS ISSUE IS A SILVER BULLET FOR THEM. >> WE'LL SEE. >> Linsey: WE CERTAINLY WILL. WE THANK YOU BOTH SO MUCH FOR JOINING US. STILL MUCH MORE TO GET TO ON THIS SPECIAL EDITION OF ABC NEWS LIVE, THE DEMOCRATIC NATIONAL CONVENTION. WE SEE A LOT OF HIGH ENERGY HERE THIS WEEK. FORMER PRESIDENT BILL CLINTON SPEAKING TONIGHT, NO STRANGER TO A LIVELY DNC. HERE'S A LOOK BACK TO 1996 WHEN HE ACCEPTED DEMOCRATIC NATIONAL CONVENTION. >> MR. CHAIRMAN, MY FELLOW DEMOCRATS, AND MY FELLOW AMERICANS. THANK YOU FOR YOUR NOMINATION. [CHEERS AND APPLAUSE] I DON'T KNOW IF I CAN FIND A FANCY WAY TO SAY THIS, BUT I ACCEPT. ♪ ♪ ["MACARENA" PLAYING] >> Linsey: I WANT TO WELCOME YOU BACK TO THE STAGE, YOU CAN SEE THERE HERSH COLIN, FAMILY HAS BEEN HELD HOSTAGE IN GAZA. >> AT THIS MOMENT, 109 TREASURED HUMAN BEINGS ARE BEING HELD HOSTAGE BY HAMAS IN GAZA. THEY ARE CHRISTIANS, JEWS, MUSLIMS, HINDUS, AND BUDDHISTS. THEY ARE FROM 23 DIFFERENT COUNTRIES. THE YOUNGEST HOSTAGE IS A 1-YEAR-OLD REDHEADED BABY BOY AND THE OLDEST IS AN 86-YEAR-OLD MUSTACHIOED GRANDPA. AMONG THE HOSTAGES ARE EIGHT AMERICAN CITIZENS. ONE OF THOSE AMERICANS IS OUR ONLY SON. HIS NAME IS HERSH, HE IS 23 YEARS OLD. LIKE VICE PRESIDENT KAMALA HARRIS HE WAS BORN IN OAKLAND, CALIFORNIA. HERSH IS A HAPPY-GO-LUCKY, LAID-BACK, GOOD-HUMORED, RESPECTFUL, AND CURIOUS PERSON. HE IS A CIVILIAN. HE LOVES SOCCER, IS WILD ABOUT MUSIC AND MUSIC FESTIVALS, AND HE HAS BEEN OBSESSED WITH GEOGRAPHY AND TRAVEL SINCE HE WAS A LITTLE BOY. HIS BEDROOM OVERFLOWS WITH ATLASES, GLOBES, MAPS, AND "NATIONAL GEOGRAPHIC" MAGAZINES. ON OCTOBER 7TH, HERSH AND HIS BEST FRIEND HONOR WENT TO A MUSIC FESTIVAL IN THE SOUTH OF ISRAEL. IT WAS ADVERTISED AS CELEBRATING PEACE, LOVE, AND UNITY. THEY ALSO WENT TO CELEBRATE KISHERSH'S 23RD BIRTHDAY. AS ROCKETS FELL, HERSH, HONOR AND OTHER FESTIVALGOERS TOOK REFUGE IN A 5-FOOT BY 8-FOOT BOMB SHELTER. TERRORISTS BEGAN TO THROW GRENADES INTO THE SHELTER. HONOR STOOD IN THE DOORWAY AND REPELLED SEVEN OF THOSE GRENADES BEFORE THE EIGHTH ONE KILLED H HIM. ALTOGETHER AT THE NOVA MUSIC FESTIVAL, 367 YOUNG MUSIC LOVERS WERE KILLED. THIS WAS JUST ONE OF THE MANY ATTACKS ON NEIGHBORHOODS AND COMMUNITIES IN SOUTHERN ISRAEL ON THAT TERRIBLE DAY. IN TOTAL, 1,200 WERE KILLED, INCLUDING 45 AMERICANS. HERSH'S LEFT FOREARM, HIS DOMINANT ARM WAS BLOWN OFF BEFORE HE WAS LOADED ONTO A PICKUP TRUCK AND STOLEN FROM HIS LIFE, AND ME, AND JOHN. INTO GAZA. THAT WAS 320 DAYS AGO. SINCE THEN, WE LIVE ON ANOTHER PLANET. ANYONE WHO IS A PARENT OR HAS HAD A PARENT CAN TRY TO IMAGINE THE ANGUISH AND MISERY THAT JOHN AND I AND ALL THE HOSTAGE FAMILIES ARE ENDURING. >> RACHEL AND I ARE COMFORTED TO BE BACK IN OUR SWEET HOME, CHICAGO. WE WERE BOTH BORN AND RAISED HERE AND OUR FAMILIES STILL LIVE HERE. THIS IS A POLITICAL CONVENTION, BUT NEEDING OUR ONLY SON AND ALL OF THE CHERISHED HOSTAGES HOME IS NOT A POLITICAL ISSUE. [APPLAUSE] IT IS A HUMANITARIAN ISSUE. [APPLAUSE] THE FAMILIES OF THE AMERICAN HOSTAGES MEET EVERY FEW WEEKS IN WASHINGTON. WE ARE HEARTENED THAT BOTH DEMOCRATIC AND REPUBLICAN LEADERS DEMONSTRATE THEIR BIPARTISAN SUPPORT FOR OUR HOSTAGES BEING RELEASED. WE'VE MET WITH PRESIDENT BIDEN AND VICE PRESIDENT HARRIS NUMEROUS TIMES AT THE WHITE HOUSE. THEY ARE BOTH WORKING TIRELESSLY FOR A HOSTAGE AND CEASE-FIRE DEAL THAT WILL BRING OUR PRECIOUS CHILDREN, MOTHERS, FATHERS, SPOUSES, GRANDPARENTS, AND GRANDCHILDREN HOME. AND WILL STOP AT THE DESPAIR IN GAZA. WE ARE ALL DEEPLY GRATEFUL TO THEM. WE ARE ALSO PROFOUNDLY THANKFUL TO YOU. THE MILLIONS OF PEOPLE IN THE UNITED STATES AND ALL OVER THE WORLD WHO HAVE BEEN SENDING LOVE, SUPPORT, AND THE STRENGTH TO THE HOSTAGE FAMILIES. YOU'VE KEPT US BREATHING IN A WORLD WITHOUT AIR. THERE IS A SURPLUS OF AGONY ON ALL SIDES OF THE TRAGIC CONFLICT IN THE MIDDLE EAST. IN A COMPETITION OF PAIN, THERE ARE NO WINNERS. [APPLAUSE] IN OUR JEWISH TRADITION WE SAY. [SPEAKING ANOTHER LANGUAGE] "EVERY PERSON IS AN ENTIRE UNIVERSE." WE MUST SAVE ALL THESE UNIV UNIVERSES. [APPLAUSE] IN AN INFLAMED MIDDLE EAST, WE KNOW THE ONE THING THAT CAN MOST IMMEDIATELY RELEASE PRESSURE AND BRING CALM TO THE ENTIRE REGION -- A DEAL THAT BRINGS THIS DIVERSE GROUP OF 109 HOSTAGES HOME AND ENDS THE SUFFERING OF THE INNOCENT CIVILIANS IN GAZA. THE TIME IS NOW. >> HERSH, IF YOU CAN HEAR US, WE LOVE YOU. STAY STRONG. SURVIVE. >> BRING THEM HOME! [APPLAUSE] >> Linsey: A NUMBER OF PEOPLE IN THE ARENA ON THEIR FEET. I WANT TO BRING IN JAY O'BRIEN WHO WAS ON THE FLOOR. I DON'T KNOW THAT WE'VE HEARD THIS AUDITORIUM THAT QUIET, THAT STILL SINCE THE BEGINNING OF THIS CONVENTION. QUITE A MOVING SPEECH FROM THOSE PARENTS. GIVE US THE REACTION, THE PERSPECTIVE YOU'RE SITTING ON THE FLOOR. >> ABSOLUTELY, YOU CAN HEAR A PIN DROP IN HERE. PEOPLE STOOD FOR THE ENTIRE REMARKS FROM THAT FAMILY AND THEY CHANTED "BRING THEM HOME, BRING THEM HOME." THERE WERE TEARS IN THE EYES OF SOME PEOPLE I COULD SEE ON THE FLOOR. IT'S WORTH BRINGING UP THE PARALLELS AND DIFFERENCES BETWEEN THIS CONVENTION AND THE RNC. AT THE RNC THERE WERE ALSO A CHANCE OF BRING THEM HOME, BRING THEM HOME -- WE HEARD THE HERSH FAMILY REMARK TO THE FACT THEY BELIEVE HOSTAGE NEGOTIATIONS FOR THOSE HOSTAGE NEGOTIATIONS IN GAZA, IS A BIPARTISAN ISSUE. THEY ARE THANKFUL FOR THE BIPARTISANSHIP BUT WHERE THIS DIVERGES A LITTLE BIT IS EXACTLY HOW THE U.S.-ISRAELI RELATIONSHIP SHOULD LOOK AT GOING FOR FORWARD. THERE ARE DEMOCRATS PRO-ISRAEL, PROGRESSIVE DEMOCRATS WERE CRITICAL OF ISRAEL AND MARCHING IN THE STREETS PROTESTING FOR VARIOUS FACTIONS ON THE DEMOCRATIC PARTY. ON THE REPUBLICAN SIDE YOU HAVE DONALD TRUMP WHO SAYS HIS APPROACH TO ISRAEL WILL BE FAR MORE PRO-ISRAEL IF YOU WERE TO GET INTO OFFICE AND THAT WAS THE MESSAGE WE HEARD COMING OUT OF THE RNC. A CRITICISM OF THE BIDEN ADMINISTRATION SAYING THEY HAD NOT BEEN SUFFICIENTLY PRO-ISRAEL ENOUGH. THAT IS OF COURSE NOT THE MESSAGE WE HEARD ON STAGE. DESPITE ALL THE POLITICS, A VERY SOLEMN MOMENT HERE. >> Linsey: CERTAINLY AS YOU HEARD THERE FROM THE PARENTS, THIS IS NOT A POLITICAL ISSUE, IT'S A HUMANITARIAN ONE. JAY O'BRIEN, WE WILL CHECK BACK IN WITH YOU. STILL MUCH MORE AS YOU SEE. SENATOR CORY BOOKER OF NEW JERSEY SPEAKING, ADDRESSING THE DELEGATES RIGHT NOW AT THE UNITED CENTER.

TONIGHT GOVERNOR TIM WALZ INTRODUCES HIMSELF TO THE NATION AS WE LOOK AT THE SPLIT SCREEN THERE -- WE JUST MISSED IT -- WE WILL COME BACK IN JUST A LITTLE BIT. MAREN MORRIS, COUNTRY MUSIC STAR PERFORMING HERE. THERE YOU SEE EARLIER TODAY, GOVERNOR WALZ WAS AT THE UNITED CENTER THIS AFTERNOON ON THE CONVENTION STAGE, HE WILL DELIVER THE MOST IMPORTANT SPEECH OF HIS LIFE SINCE HE JOINED THE TICKET JUST OVER TWO WEEKS AGO, HE HAS BEEN BARNSTORMING BATTLEGROUND STATES WITH VICE PRESIDENT HARRIS, TONIGHT THE SPOTLIGHT WILL BE ON HIM. THE CAMPAIGN HOPES THE LIFE STORY FROM THE MAN FROM SMALL-TOWN NEBRASKA WILL HELP THEM WIN OVER VOTERS IN RURAL PARTS OF THE STATES LIKE PENNSYLVANIA, WISCONSIN AND MICHIGAN. TODAY FOR THE PRESIDENT TRUMP WAS ON THE TRAIL IN ANOTHER KEY BATTLEGROUND STATE ON NORTH CAROLINA. THIS COMES AS ABC NEWS HAS CONFIRMED RFK JR. PLANS TO ABANDON HIS CAMPAIGN AND ENDORSE TRUMP EARLIER THIS WEEK. IT'S BEEN AN EMOTIONAL NIGHT SO FAR AFTER THE PARENTS OF AN ISRAELI AMERICAN HOSTAGE BROUGHT THE ENTIRE CONVENTION TO A STANDSTILL WITH SOME SURPRISES STILL IN STORE. OUR TEAM IS STANDING BY TO BREAK IT ALL DOWN, WE WANT TO SEND IT NOW TO OUR SENIOR CONGRESSIONAL CORRESPONDENT MISS RACHEL SCOTT. A VERY DIFFERENT NIGHT SO FAR THE CONVENTION HITTING ISSUES TONIGHT LIKE JANUARY 6TH, ALSO IMMIGRATION. WOULD YOU SAY THE MOOD STARTING OUT AT LEAST FOR TODAY IS A BIT MORE SERIOUS ESPECIALLY COMPARED TO THAT ROLL CALL FROM YESTERDAY? >> IT WAS QUITE TO THE PARTY ON THIS FLOOR. LIL JON MADE HIS WAY DOWN THE AISLE 24 HOURS AGO. JANUARY 6 WE KNOW FORMER PRESIDENT DONALD TRUMP I INTERVIEWED HIM A FEW WEEKS AGO AND HE PROMISED TO PARDON THE RIOTERS WHO BEAT OFFICERS THAT DAY. ALSO IMMIGRATION, THIS IS ONE THAT'S TRICKY FOR DEMOCRATS BECAUSE THIS IS ONE FORMER PRESIDENT DONALD TRUMP STILL HAS A COMMANDING LEAD TO ON THE POLES IN THIS PARTICULAR ISSUE. YOU HEAR DEMOCRATS ON THE STAGE TALK ABOUT HOW THEIR STANCE ON THIS ISSUE WAS MUCH DIFFERENT, TONIGHT WE ARE EXPECTING DEMOCRATS TO GO AFTER THE FORMER PRESIDENT FOR TELLING REPUBLICANS NOT TO SUPPORT THAT BIPARTISAN IMMIGRATION DEAL IN CONGRESS. >> JAY O'BRIEN HIT ON THIS A SHORT WHILE AGO, YOU JUST HEARD AGAIN FROM THE PARENTS OF HERSH COLIN, HIS SON WAS TAKEN HOSTAGE IN GAZA THREE HAD A 20 DAYS AGO, HOW MUCH TO CONGRESSIONAL DEMOCRATS STILL DISAGREE ON SUPPORT FOR ISRAEL? SPEAK OF THIS IS ONE THING THAT IS VERY MUCH DIVIDING THE DEMOCRATIC PARTY RIGHT NOW. OBVIOUSLY OUTSIDE OF THE DEMOCRATIC NATIONAL CONVENTION, WE ARE REPORTING ON SOME OF THE DEMONSTRATIONS THAT REALLY DO UNDERSCORE THIS IS AN INSTANCE WHERE DEMOCRATS ARE HAVING TO FACE A DIVIDE WITHIN THEIR OWN PARTY. VICE PRESIDENT KAMALA HARRIS I WILL SAY HAS BEEN MORE FORCEFUL IN HER RHETORIC TALKING ABOUT THE CIVILIAN CASUALTIES ALSO IN GAZA, I REMEMBER INTERVIEWING HER WEEKS AGO BEFORE PRESIDENT BIDEN EXITED THE RACE AND I ASKED HER ABOUT THAT CIVILIAN TOLL IN GAZA AT THE TIME. ISRAEL WAS THREATENING TO GO INTO ROTH, THAT COUNTEROFFENSIVE AND SHE DID NOT RULE OUT CONSEQUENCES AT THE TIME. THAT WAS MUCH FURTHER THAN PRESIDENT BIDEN WAS GOING. >> Linsey: SWITCHING GEARS HERE FOR A MOMENT, WE HAVE HEARD FROM HILLARY CLINTON, BOTH MICHELLE AND BARACK OBAMA, DR. JILL BIDEN, PRESIDENT JOE BIDEN, ARE WE HEARING AT ALL FROM DONALD TRUMP WITH REGARD TO HIM WATCHING? I KNOW HE GAVE HIS COMMENTARY FROM THE FIRST NIGHT BUT WHAT DOES HE HAVE TO SAY ABOUT THE DEMOCRATIC NATIONAL CONVENTION AND WHAT HE IS HEARING? SPEAK OUT THIS BEEN NOTABLE BECAUSE FORMER PRESIDENT DONALD TRUMP IS NOT SHY ABOUT GOING ON SOCIAL MEDIA AND REALLY HAVING THIS LIVE RESPONSE IN REAL TIME TO EVERYTHING THAT WOULD BE HAPPENING HERE, HE REALLY HASN'T DONE MUCH OF THAT EVEN AFTER FORMER PRESIDENT BARACK OBAMA WENT AFTER HIM REALLY HARD YESTERDAY AS FIRST LADY MICHELLE OBAMA, WE DIDN'T SEE ANYTHING IN THE IMMEDIATE AFTERMATH. TODAY HE TRIED TO SWITCH THE NARRATIVE A LITTLE BIT AND SAY THEY ARE THE ONES THAT ARE NOT NECESSARILY GOING HIGH, THEY ARE THE ONES GOING LOW. OF COURSE THE REALITY WE ALSO KNOW FORMER PRESIDENT DONALD TRUMP WAS THE ONE WHO PUSHED THESE FALSE CLAIMS ABOUT FORMER PRESIDENT BARACK OBAMA FOR YEARS. HE IS ALSO THE ONE WHO HAS QUESTIONED THE RACIAL IDENTITY OF VICE PRESIDENT KAMALA HARRIS AS WELL. YOU HEARD THAT THE MESSAGE FROM MICHELLE OBAMA LAST NIGHT SAYING WHEN THEY QUESTIONED YOU, THEY INSULT YOU, DO SOMETHING ABOUT IT, THEY ARE ENCOURAGING PEOPLE TO USE THEIR VOICE AND GET OUT TO THE POLLS THIS NOVEMBER. >> RACHEL SCOTT FOR US, THANK YOU AS ALWAYS. COULD BE ALL EYES AND THE KEY STATE OF ARIZONA COME NOVEMBER WE SPOKE EARLIER TO MARK KELLY, A MODERATE DEMOCRAT MUST BEEN AFRAID TO BREAK FROM THE ABIDED MR. RISCH AND AT TIMES, TAKE A LISTEN. >> Linsey: THANK YOU SO MUCH FOR JOINING US, OF COURSE TONIGHT, TIM WALZ IS GOING TO BE INTRODUCING HIMSELF TO THE AMERICAN PEOPLE, YOU HAVE RBC KNOWN HIM FOR TWO DECADES, YOU MET HIM FIRST THROUGH YOUR WIFE IN CONGRESS WHEN HE WAS THERE AS WELL, GIVE US AN ANECDOTE, SOMETHING THE AMERICAN PEOPLE DON'T KNOW ABOUT COACH WALZ. >> SUCH A GREAT GUY, GABBY AND TIM WERE FRESHMEN TOGETHER IN THE HOUSE, THEY GOT SWORN IN TOGETHER IN 2007. I HAVE KNOWN HIM SINCE THEN. WHAT YOU SEE IS WHAT YOU GET WITH HIM. HE'S A TEACHER, A COACH, SERVICE MEMBER, SERVED OUR NATION HONORABLY FOR 24 YEARS. THEN WENT TO CONGRESS. FOR 12 YEARS SERVED WITH MY WIFE AND HE WAS THERE FOR HER AFTER SHE GOT SHOT AND HAD TO RESIGN HER SEAT ABOUT A YEAR LATER. I'VE KNOWN HIM FOR A LONG TIME, HE AND GABBY ARE BUDDIES, IT'S GREAT TO SEE HIM IN THIS ROLE AND HE AND KAMALA HARRIS ARE THE PEOPLE WHO ARE GOING TO TAKE THIS COUNTRY FORWARD INTO THE FUTURE. >> 76 DAYS UNTIL ELECTION DAY, DEMOCRATS ARE CITING A MASSIVE BUMP IN VOTER ENTHUSIASM AND VOLUNTEERS AND MONEY, IS THERE ANY CONCERN AT ALL FOR YOU THE DEMOCRATS MIGHT GET COMPLACENT AS WE GET CLOSER TO THE ELECTION? >> OF COURSE, WE'VE GOT TO FIGURE OUT HOW TO TAKE THIS ENTHUSIASM -- NOT JUST IN THIS ROOM BUT YOU SAW WHAT HAPPENED IN WISCONSIN YESTERDAY, A WEEK AGO, WE WERE IN GLENDALE, ARIZONA, PART OF PHOENIX, 15,000 PEOPLE IN AN ARENA LIKE THIS. I HAVE NEVER SEEN THAT KIND OF ENTHUSIASM AT A POLITICAL EVENT. MY HOPE HERE IS WE CAN TAKE THIS ENTHUSIASM THAT YOU SEE IN THIS ARENA AND ACROSS THE COUNTRY AND TURN IT INTO VOTES. >> Linsey: AS YOU KNOW ARIZONA COULD PROVE DECISIVE WHEN IT COMES TO THE ELECTION. IMMIGRATION CERTAINLY TOP OF MIND FOR MANY BOATERS IN YOUR STATE. YOU'VE BROKEN WITH THE BIDEN-HARRIS ADMINISTRATION IN THE PAST WHEN IT COMES TO THE BORDER AND THE SAID THAT DEMOCRATS SOMETIMES JUST DON'T UNDERSTAND THE ISSUE. DOES KAMALA HARRIS? >> SHE DOES. I'VE TALKED TO HER ABOUT THIS ISSUE. SHE'S COME OUT PUBLICLY AND SAID SHE WOULD SUPPORT THAT BIPARTISAN BORDER SECURITY BILL WE NEGOTIATED WITH THE WHITE HOUSE, WITH KAMALA HARRIS, WITH THE PRESIDENT AND REPUBLICANS IN THE SENATE. THEN DONALD TRUMP DID SOMETHING THAT I HAVE TO SAY IT'S ONE OF THE MOST HAVE A CRITICAL THINGS I'VE EVER SEEN ANYBODY DO, AND ISSUE HE TALKS ABOUT A LOT, THEN WHEN WE FINALLY HAVE AN OPPORTUNITY TO DO SOMETHING SIGNIFICANT ABOUT IT IN A BIPARTISAN WAY THROUGH LEGISLATION, HE TELLS THE REPUBLICANS. HE WAS STRAIGHTFORWARD ABOUT WHY, HE SAID HE NEEDED THIS AS A CAMPAIGN ISSUE. IN THAT LEGISLATION THERE WAS MORE MONEY FOR BORDER PATROL PAY, THEY WANT TO HIRE MORE BORDER PATROL AGENTS, MORE MONEY FOR INFRASTRUCTURE TO TEMPORARILY HOLD MIGRANTS AS YOU ADJUDICATE THEIR ASYLUM CLAIMS. ALSO MONEY AMERICA BUY MORE FENTANYL DETECTION MACHINES -- THINK ABOUT THAT. THAT LEGISLATION DIDN'T PASS. THEY DIDN'T HAVE THE OPPORTUNITY TO BUY THOSE FENTANYL DETECTION MACHINES. WHAT THAT MEANS IS MORE FENTANYL COMES INTO OUR COUNTRY AND MORE PEOPLE DIED. DONALD TRUMP WANTED TO HAVE THIS ISSUE -- IT'S THE MOST CRAVEN, HYPOCRITICAL, AWFUL POLITICAL MANEUVER I'VE SEEN IN MY LIFETIME. SHE KNOWS THAT BORDER SECURITY DEAL IS GOING TO STRENGTHEN OUR COUNTRY'S BORDERS BUT AT THE SAME TIME IT'S GOING TO ALLOW US TO WORK ON COMPREHENSIVE IMMIGRATION REFORM. TO PROVIDE THE PATHWAY ON THE CITIZENSHIP FOR DREAMERS. WE CAN HAVE THOSE IMMIGRATION POLICIES THAT SUPPORT OUR ECONOMY. >> Linsey: IS THAT ENOUGH FOR VOTERS IN ARIZONA, YOUR FORMER GOVERNOR SAID IT HAD FAILED AND HAS TO ANSWER FOR THAT ON THE CAMPAIGN TRAIL, I'M WONDERING IN ARIZONA IN PARTICULAR -- >> I WAS ON THE PHONE WITH ONE OF OUR SHERIFF'S LAST WEEK TALKING ABOUT THE NUMBERS OF MIGRANTS COMING ACROSS THE BORDER. THE NUMBERS ARE DOWN SIGNIFICANTLY. THEY ARE RATHER LOW AT THIS POINT BECAUSE OF EXECUTIVE ACTIONS THAT THE BIDEN-HARRIS ADMINISTRATION TOOK AFTER DONALD TRUMP KILLED THAT BORDER SECURITY BILL. >> Linsey: OBVIOUSLY THE MILITARY HAS COME UP ON THE CAMPAIGN TRAIL IN RECENT DAYS. YOU HAVE DEFENDED TIM WALZ WITH REGARD -- TIM WALZ SPENT MORE THAN TWO DECADES OF THE MILITARY HIMSELF AND YOU DEFENDED TIM WALZ AGAINST THE CRITICISM FROM J.D. VANCE, THIS IDEA OF STOLEN VALOR. I AM CURIOUS BECAUSE THE CAMPAIGN HAS SINCE CHANGED HIS BIO ON THE WEBSITE, IS THERE ANY LEGITIMACY TO THE CRITICISM? >> NO, NOT AT ALL. TIM WALZ SERVED OVER 20 YEARS, HE RETIRED FROM THE ARMY NATIONAL GUARD AFTER AN HONORABLE CAREER IN SERVICE. ONCE YOU GET TO 20 YEARS YOU GET TO DECIDE WHEN THEY ARE GOING TO RETIRE, HE SERVED 24 YEARS. J.D. VANCE SHOULD GET THIS. I RESPECTED J.D. VANCE'S SERVICE IN THE MARINE CORPS, I SERVED THE NAVY FOR 25 YEARS. WE LOVE THE UNITED STATES MARINE CORPS, THEY ARE THE BEST. I WOULD THINK A MARINE WOULD GET THIS. I DON'T EXPECT THE SAME FROM DONALD TRUMP. HERE IS A GUY WHO DISRESPECTS SERVICE MEMBERS, EVEN SERVICE MEMBERS WHO HAVE PAID THE ULTIMATE PRICE. DONALD TRUMP JUST DOESN'T GET IT. HE HAS NO IDEA WHAT IT MEANS TO SACRIFICE FOR A GREATER CAUSE THAT ISN'T YOURSELF. >> Linsey: LAST QUESTION HERE, YOU SPENT A LOT OF YEARS AS AN ASTRONAUT, YOU BEND A SPACE THERE ARE NUMBER OF PEOPLE WHO SAY ONCE YOU'VE GONE THERE IT CHANGES YOU. I'M CURIOUS HOW THAT PERSPECTIVE OF LOOKING AT THE WORLD AS THIS LITTLE BALL CHANGES OR MAKES YOU DIFFERENT IS A POLITICIAN? >> IT MADE ME REALIZE WE ARE ALL IN THIS TOGETHER. WE ARE ON AN ISLAND, MAKE NO MISTAKE THERE IS NO PLACE ELSE TO GO. WE ARE IN THIS TOGETHER. >> Linsey: SENATOR MARK KELLY, THANKS MUCH FOR YOUR TIME AT YOUR SERVICE. NOW I WANT TO GO BACK TO VERONICA ESCOBAR, CONGRESSWOMAN FROM TEXAS -- LET'S TAKE A LISTEN. SHE JUST FINISHED THERE. WE'LL RETURN BACK TO THE FLOOR IN A LITTLE BIT, I THINK THEY'RE ABOUT TO HAVE A VIDEO RIGHT NOW ABOUT A BORDER SECURITY. PART OF THE PROGRAM WITH ITS THEME OF FREEDOM WILL TOUCH ON THAT ISSUE OF IMMIGRATION. ABC HAS REPORTED EXTENSIVELY ON THE ISSUE. THE TRUMP CAMPAIGN, THE KAMALA HARRIS IMMIGRATION RECORD IN SO-CALLED OPEN BORDER POLICIES OF THE BIDEN-HARRIS ADMINISTRATION, WHAT ARE THE LATEST NUMBERS TELL US ABOUT ENCOUNTERS IN THE SOUTHERN BORDER UNDER THE CURRENT ADMINISTRATION. >> THERE IS NO DOUBT WE SAW SOME VERY HIGH ENCOUNTER NUMBERS BACK IN THE NOVEMBER-DECEMBER-JANUARY TIME FRAME. WE KNOW THIS IS AROUND THE SAME TIME THE BIPARTISAN BORDER SECURITY BILL WAS BEING DISCUSSED AND IT DIED A VERY SLOW-PAINFUL DEATH. THE ADMINISTRATION TOOK A HARD LOOK AT WHAT WERE THE POLICIES AND PROGRAMS THEY COULD PUT IN PLACE THAT WOULD OBVIOUSLY HELP CONTROL THE SITUATION ALONG THE BORDER. ONE OF THE BIGGEST NOTES IS WHAT WE SAW IN JUNE BY PRESIDENT BIDEN. HE SIGNED AN EXECUTIVE ORDER THAT WOULD SHUT DOWN THE BORDER BETWEEN PORTS OF ENTRY WHEN NUMBERS GOT TOO HIGH AND WE SAW A DRAMATIC DECREASE IN THE NUMBER OF ENCOUNTERS. WHAT WE SAW IN JULY ALONE, JUST OVER 56,000 PEOPLE, AND COUNTERS THAT CAME THROUGH. THAT'S A DRAMATIC DECREASE -- IT'S VERY CLEAR WHAT WE HAVE SEEN NOW AND PROGRAMS AND POLICIES THAT WE HAVE SEEN WORKING. CRITICS HAVE SAID IF WE KNEW WE COULD DO THIS WHY WASN'T IT DONE SOONER? >> Linsey: LONGTIME BEAR COUNTY SHERIFF JAVIER SALAZAR WILL BE ON THIS STAGE NIGHT, WHAT CAN WE ANTICIPATE? >> I HAVE WORKED ALONGSIDE THIS SHERIFF FOR A VERY LONG TIME. HE HAS NO NONSENSE. HE WAS A POLICE OFFICER FOR A LONG TIME BEFORE BECOMING THE SHERIFF. HE KNOWS EXACTLY WHAT THIS AREA NEEDS AND DIFFERENT TYPES OF ISSUES THEY DEAL WITH. WE ARE JUST TALKING ABOUT STREET CRIME AND THE LARGEST CITY THEY WORK WITH WHICH IS SAN ANTONIO, THEY ARE ALSO HAVE A DEAL WITH A LOT OF BORDER ISSUES. OVER THE LAST FEW YEARS, HE HAS DEFINITELY GOTTEN MORE INVOLVED IN MAKING SURE HE WORKS ALONGSIDE THE FEDERAL AGENCIES AND IN FACT HE WAS ACTUALLY IN WASHINGTON, D.C., IN JUNE WHEN THAT EXECUTIVE ORDER WAS ANNOUNCED. VERY SUPPORTIVE OF WHAT THIS ADMINISTRATION HAS DONE, HE MAKES NO EXCUSES, WHEN THINGS ARE BAD THEY ARE BAD. WORKING ALONGSIDE AGENCIES LIKE BORDER PATROL INSTEAD OF WITHHOLDING TECHNOLOGY AND ALL SORTS OF DIFFERENT RESOURCES THEY MAY NEED TO. >> Linsey: STAY WITH US FOR A MOMENT, WE HAVE THE GOVERNOR FROM CONNECTICUT THERE. THE SENATOR FROM CONNECTICUT, CHRIS MURPHY LET'S TAKE A LI LISTEN. >> VICE PRESIDENT HARRIS -- I WANT TO TELL YOU THIS AS WELL. DONALD TRUMP'S ALLIES WENT JUST IN THE ROOM, THEY HELPED US WRWRITE THE WHOLE BILL. IT WAS A BIPARTISAN BILL, IT WAS A TOUGH BILL ERRICO $20 BILLION IN NEW BORDER SECURITY, GAVE THE PRESIDENT EMERGENCY POWER TO SHUT DOWN THE BORDER, MADE FROM PASSIONATE, BUT SERIOUS REFORMS TO OUR ASYLUM SYSTEM. ONE REPUBLICAN SAID IT WOULD'VE HAD ALMOST UNANIMOUS SUPPORT IF IT WEREN'T FOR DONALD TRUMP. TRUMP KILLED THAT BILL AND HE DID IT BECAUSE HE KNEW IF WE FIXED THE BORDER, HE WOULD LOSE HIS ABILITY TO DIVIDE US. HIS ABILITY TO FAN THE FLAMES OF FEAR ABOUT PEOPLE WHO COME FROM DIFFERENT PLACES. YOU GUYS KNOW THIS -- HATE AND DIVISION, THAT IS TRUMP'S OX OXYGEN. PEOPLE LIKE TRUMP AND J.D. VANCE, THEY NEEDED TO SURVIVE IN POLITICS. PEOPLE ARE SAYING THEY ARE WEIRD AND CREEPY AND THEY ARE WEIRD, THEY ARE CREEPY. BUT EVEN WORSE, THEY ARE WEAK. KAMALA HARRIS IS NOT WEAK. FOR 20 YEARS, KAMALA HARRIS HAS BEEN TOUGH AS NAILS WHEN IT COMES TO SECURING OUR BORDER GO WHEN SHE WAS A CALIFORNIA PROSECUTOR, SHE WENT AFTER DRUG SMUGGLERS, HUMAN TRAFFICKERS, SHE PUT 100 GANG MEMBERS AWAY IN A SINGLE SWEEP. TRUMP SAYS A SAFE NATION CAN'T BE AN EMIGRANT NATION, THAT IS FLAT WRONG AND KAMALA HARRIS KNOWS IT. SHE KNOWS THIS TOO -- ENGRAVED ON THE STATUE OF LIBERTY IS A POEM, THE LAST LINE READS "I LIFT MY LAMP BESIDE THE GOLDEN DOOR." FOR GENERATIONS, THAT LAMP HAS CALLED PEOPLE TO START A BRAVE NEW LIFE IN AMERICA. MY ANCESTORS, YOUR ANCESTORS, AND THE PARENTS OF THE NEXT PRESIDENT OF THE UNITED STATES OF AMERICA. [APPLAUSE] >> Linsey: CONNECTICUT SENATOR CHRIS MURPHY THERE. I WANT TO BRING YOU BACK IN HERE, YOU HURT HIM AS WE HAVE BEEN HEARING FROM A NUMBER OF DEMOCRATS WHO HAVE TAKEN TO THE STAGE POINTING THE BLAME SQUARELY AT DONALD TRUMP FOR THE FAILURE OF THAT BIPARTISAN BORDER BILL. I WANT TO GET YOUR SENSE ON TIM WALZ'S RECORD AS THE GOVERNOR OF MINNESOTA WHAT DO WE KNOW ABOUT HIS STANCE ON UNDOCUMENTED IMMIGRANTS? >> I DON'T THINK HE'S COME OUT AND SAID EXACTLY WHAT HIS IMMIGRATION PLAN WILL BE IF AND WHEN THEY GET ELECTED BUT WE DO KNOW THAT WHILE HE'S GOVERNOR, WHILE HE HAS BEEN GOVERNOR THERE HAVE BEEN A NUMBER OF POLICIES THAT HE HAS ALIGNED WITH -- FOR EXAMPLE ALLOWING UNDOCUMENTED IMMIGRANTS TO GET DRIVERS LICENSES, TO ALSO TAKE ADVANTAGE OF THE HEALTH CARE IN THE AREA IN THEIR STATE AND ALSO TO GET IN-STATE TUITION. HE TOOK A LOT OF HEAT NOT TOO LONG AGO WHEN FORMER PRESIDENT DONALD TRUMP WAS TALKING ABOUT THE BORDER AND BUILDING THE WALL, HE SAID AND JOKED AROUND, HE SAID WE ARE ACTUALLY GOING TO BUILD A LADDER MANUFACTURING COMPANY IN OUR STATES. WHILE HE WAS JOKING ABOUT IT, THE IDEA IS HE FEELS THEY SHOULD BE CREATING PATHWAYS FOR MIGRANTS TO COME HERE -- IMMIGRANTS TO COME IN AND FOLLOW THE LAWS IN ORDER TO LEARN AND LIVE HERE IN THE UNITED STATES, NOT NECESSARILY BUILDING WALLS. I THINK IT'S CLEAR WHAT WE HAVE HEARD THROUGHOUT THE DNC SO FAR IS IT'S NOT JUST ABOUT CREATING THE PATHWAYS IT'S ALSO ABOUT MAKING SURE THE FEDERAL AGENCIES ALONG THE BORDER HAVE THE RESOURCES THAT THEY NEED AND THAT DOESN'T NECESSARILY MEAN A BORDER WALL, THAT MEANS TECHNOLOGY INTO BOOTS ON THE GROUND. >> Linsey: STAY WITH US ONCE AGAIN WE WANT TO TAKE A LISTEN TO SHERIFF SALAZAR, ADDRESSING THE DELEGATES HERE. >> THAN THEY SEAL THE DOORS, THAT'S WHEN THE 911 CALLS. WE HEAR THEM. DESPERATE, TERRIFIED, GASPING FOR AIR. SOMETIMES WE GET THERE IN TIME. SOMETIMES DESPITE OUR BEST EFFORTS, WE CAN'T. WHEN DONALD TRUMP COMES DOWN TO TEXAS, STANDS NEXT TO OFFICERS IN UNIFORM JUST LIKE MINE, HE'S NOT THERE TO HELP US. DON'T THINK THAT, NOT FOR A SECOND, HE IS A SELF-SERVING MAN. JUST LIKE WHEN HE KILLED THE BORDER BILL. HE MADE OUR JOBS HARDER. KAMALA ON THE OTHER HAND HAS BEEN FIGHTING BORDER CRIME FOR YEARS. SHE'S GONE DOWN TO MEXICO AND WORKED TO STOP THE TRAFFICKERS AND WHEN THE TRAFFICKERS DIDN'T STOP SHE PUT THEM IN JAIL. DOWN IN MY NECK OF THE WOODS WE CALL THAT FOOLING AROUND AND FINDING OUT. I MAY BE PARAPHRASING A BIT. THE BORDER SHERIFFS THAT I KNOW -- WE ARE LIKE KAMALA. WE PROTECT AND SERVE, WE ENFORCE THE LAW. WE SHOW COMPASSION. AND WE FIGHT LIKE HELL TO PROTECT THE BORDER. AS WE KNOW IN TEXAS. [SPEAKING ANOTHER LANGUAGE] WHEN WE FIGHT WE WIN! >> Linsey: SHERIFF SALAZAR FROM A BORDER TOWN. I WANT TO BRING YOU BACK IN HERE AGAIN. FOR VOTERS FOR WHOM IMMIGRATION IS A SEMINAL ISSUE, COMPARING THE RECORDS OF DONALD TRUMP AND KAMALA HARRIS, IS THERE TRUTH IN PRESIDENT TRUMP'S CLAIM DURING HIS ADMINISTRATION ILLEGAL IMMIGRATION WAS AT ITS LOWEST IN RECORDED HISTORY? >> I'M NOT EXACTLY SURE IF THAT IS TRUE, WE HAVE BEEN RECORDED THE AMOUNT OF PEOPLE WHO HAVE COME ACROSS SINCE THE 1920s. THE IDEA THAT IT'S THE LOWEST IN RECORDED HISTORY JUST DOESN'T MAKE FACTUAL SENSE. ADDITIONALLY WE ALSO KNOW HE HAD SOME VERY HIGH NUMBERS OF ENCOUNTERS ALONG THE BORDER IN 2017 AND THAT'S WHAT WE SAW NOT TOO LONG AFTER THAT THE IMPLEMENTATION OF FAMILY SEPARATION AND ZERO-TOLERANCE PROGRAM, THAT DIDN'T STAY AROUND FOR VERY LONG. IT MADE A HUGE IMPACT. I THINK IT'S EASY FOR THE FORMER PRESIDENT TO TALK ABOUT IMMIGRATION AND TO THROW OUT THESE NUMBERS AND TO ALSO THROW OUT DIFFERENT THINGS LIKE DEPORTATION AND A CRISIS ALONG THE BORDER BECAUSE THESE ARE THINGS THAT MOST OF AMERICA IS NOT NECESSARILY FAMILIAR WITH. HE PRAYS ON THEIR EMOTIONS WITHOUT ANY FACTUAL BASIS. VERY POWERFUL SPEECH WE JUST SAW FROM THE SHERIFF TALKING ABOUT FIGHTING AND CONTINUING TO FIGHT ALONG THE BORDER AND ALIGNING HIMSELF WITH KAMALA HARRIS. >> Linsey: MIREYA VILLARREAL FOR US, THANKS U.S. ALWAYS. "ABC NEWS" SEEN A REPORTER KATHERINE FAULDERS JOINS US NOW WE ARE EXPECTING TO HEAR FROM SOME FORMER TRUMP SUPPORTERS NOW BACK IN KAMALA HARRIS, WHAT TO EXPECT TO HEAR THEM SAY? >> WE EXPECT TO HEAR FROM THEM AND THIS BUILDS ON WHAT WE HEARD LAST NIGHT FROM A FORMER WHITE HOUSE PRESS SECRETARY STEPHANIE GRISHAM. WE ARE GOING TO HEAR FROM A FORMER NATIONAL SECURITY ADVISOR AT THE WHITE HOUSE OLIVIA TROY, SHE WAS A COUNTERTERRORISM ADVISOR TO FORMER PRESIDENT MIKE PENCE SHE LEFT THE WHITE HOUSE IN 2020 BECAUSE SHE BELIEVED DONALD TRUMP FOR THE DANGER TO DEMOCRACY, SHE LEFT AND SHE HAS SPOKEN OUT ABOUT THAT. WE EXPECT TO HEAR FROM HER WE ALSO EXPECT TO HEAR FROM THE FORMER LIEUTENANT GOVERNOR OF GEORGIA, GEOFF DUNCAN. HE HAS LED THIS NEVER TRUMP MOVEMENTS. HE'S BECOME A LITTLE BIT OF A FACE OF IT IN GEORGIA. WE WILL HEAR FROM HIM. HE'S GOT A STRONG THOUGHTS ON THIS, WHO HE BELIEVES FRANKLY THAT TRUMP AND HIS WORDS POSES A DANGER TO DEMOCRACY AND HE IS GOING TO LAY OUT THE REASONS WHY THERE SHOULD BE VOTES FOR HARRIS IN NOVEMBER AND WHY MODERATES AND REPUBLICANS SHOULD SHIFT OVER TO VOTE FOR HARRIS IF THEY ARE HAVE A QUESTIONS ABOUT WHO TO VOTE FOR. THE HARRIS CAMPAIGN HAS GOT SOME CRITICISM FOR THIS, THE STRATEGY BUT AT THE END OF THE DAY THEY REALIZE THEY NEED THOSE SWING STATES, THOSE BORDER STATES LIKE PENNSYLVANIA, GEORGIA, NORTH CAROLINA, STATES WE WERE TALKING ABOUT, STATES THEY HAVE BEEN FOCUSING ON AND THIS IS ONE OF THE BOYS THERE HOPING TO PULL SOME OF THOSE MODERATES AND REPUBLICANS IN. >> Linsey: WEIGHT OF THE JANUARY 6 CAPITAL RIGHTS EXPECTED TO PLAY HEAVILY IN THESE EARLY HOURS TONIGHT HOW WAS THAT TIME AGAIN TONIGHT? >> WE ARE GOING TO HEAR FROM MSOME OF THOSE FORMER OFFICERS, LINDSAY JUST RAN INTO FORMER CAPITOL POLICE OFFICER HARRY DUNN -- SHE'S NOT SPEAKING BUT SHORTLY HE WILL BE SUPPORTING SOME OF HIS COLLEAGUES THAT ARE GOING TO SPEAK, AT LEAST ONE OF THEM WILL TAKE THE STAGE HERE TONIGHT. THIS IS GOING TO PLAY INTO THE TEAM, FIGHT FOR OUR FREEDOMS AND DEMOCRACY GENERALLY SPEAKING. IT'S A FIGHT FOR FREEDOM'S IN VARIOUS DIFFERENT WAYS, WHETHER THAT'S FOR REPRODUCTIVE FREEDOM, ABORTION, BUT ALSO DEMOCRACY. I THINK YOU'LL SEE SOME OF THESE VIDEOS BEHIND ME THESE PRODUCED VIDEOS YOU'RE SHOWING ON THE SCREEN THAT THEY ARE SOME OF THOSE WILL BE ABOUT JANUARY 6TH, ABOUT DEMOCRACY. THEY WILL TIE IN THEME FIGHT FOR OUR FREEDOMS TONIGHT. WE CAN EXPECT TO SEE A THEME TODAY BUT ALSO A THEME THROUGHOUT THE REST THE CONVENTION AS WELL. >> THANKS SO MUCH, STILL MUCH MORE TO GET TO ON THE SPECIAL EDITION OF ABC NEWS LIVE COVERAGE OF THE NATIONAL CONVENTION, STAY WITH US as seen before look at that. We are heading into the unknown. It doesn't get any more Cutting Edge and this >> WHAT DO YOU SAY I PEOPLE START THEIR DAY HERE FROM ABC NEWS. THIS IS "START HERE". TO BE IN THE MIDDLE AND A DIFFERENT TAKE ON THE DAY'S TOP STORIES. A LOT OF NEWS TODAY. SO LET'S BACK TO IT. LISTEN NOW TO THE DAILY NEWS PODCAST HONORED WITH FOUR EDWARD AH MURROW AWARDS. AND SEE WHY THE NEW YORK CALLS IT A NEWS PODCAST WORTH LISTENING TO START HERE. ABC IS MAKE IT YOUR DAILY FIRST LISTEN. NOW THAT'S If you were coming of age in the 1980s, the brat pack was near the center of your cultural awareness, but for those of us experiencing it from the inside to brought back was something very different. I'm really sorry that article had to come out. I just remember seeing that cover and thinking oh, I thought it might be interesting to try and contact everyone who is in the background. Not interested in talking about the brat pack. I turn everything down. How can I tell him to me? Because it was time that we clearly earn a couple of things. I hated the red peppers decade. What a disaster why did we take it as an offense where parade we were brushed Andrew? I'm not gonna say we were the Beatles or anything. We didn't feel Shea Stadium. They were very good 1985. I think we could What does it take to be the most watched news cast in America are part of an operation sister combat Operation Center. We're approaching the gate militants came in from different directions. We're reactor. So we have a couple loaded and ready to go. The house is destroyed but the flag out of Perry and comforted me to USA David. I'm David you are these World News Tonight with David Muir is America's most watched news cast. >> Linsey: PROTESTERS HAD BEEN DEMANDING A CEASE-FIRE IN GAZA, ONE OF THE HOSTAGES WAS HERSH COLIN, HE LOST AN ARM ON OCTOBEE CELEBRATING THE 23RD BIRTHDAY AT THE MUSIC FESTIVAL. JOINING US NOW ARE HIS PARENTS WHO JUST SPOKE TO THE CONVENTION GOERS HERE. BRING AN ENTIRE CONVENTION TO THE SILENT STANDSTILL. JOHN AND RACHEL, FIRST THANK YOU. CERTAINLY A POWERFUL MOMENT INSIDE. I WAS JUST SHARING WITH YOUR REALLY MEANINGFUL TO THE NUMBER OF PEOPLE STANDING AT THEIR FEET AND SO SILENT. GIVE US A SENSE ONE WAS THE LAST TIME YOU WERE ABLE TO GET AN UPDATE ON HERSH? >> ON DAY 201 WHICH IS NOW 119 DAYS AGO, THERE WAS A VIDEO RELEASED BY HAMAS OF HERSH, THAT HAD BEEN THE FIRST TIME IN SIX MONTHS THAT WE HAD ACTUALLY SEEN HIM AND HEARD HIM. EVEN THOUGH IT WAS A PROPAGANDA VIDEO, WE WERE STARVING TO KNOW THAT HE WAS OKAY AND WE TOOK THAT BUT SINCE THEN WE HAVE NOT HAD ANYTHING AND THAT'S WHAT'S SO UNIQUE ABOUT THIS SITUATION. WE WERE ACTUALLY LUCKY THAT WE RECEIVED THAT. THE VAST MAJORITY, VAST MAJORITY OF HOSTAGE FAMILIES HAVE NO COMMUNICATIONS, PROOF OF LIFE OR ANYTHING FROM OCTOBER 7TH WHEN THEIR LOVED ONE WAS TAKEN. >> Linsey: WHO DO YOU ALL GET UPDATES FROM WITH REGARDS TO STATUS ON NEGOTIATIONS, POTENTIAL FOR A CEASE-FIRE OR SOME KIND OF HOSTAGE DEAL? >> WE GET TO MEET REGULARLY WITH OFFICIALS IN ISRAEL AS WELL AS THE UNITED STATES. SECRETARY BLINKEN WAS JUST BACK AND AS HE HAS DONE WITH EVERY ONE OF THOSE TIMES HE MET WITH ALL THE FAMILIES, REGULAR UPDATE CALLS FOR THE NATIONAL SECURITY TEAM LED BY JAKE SULLIVAN. AS WE SAID IN HER SPEECH, WE HAVE HAD A FEW MEETINGS DIRECTLY WITH PRESIDENT BIDEN AND VICE PRESIDENT HARRIS. IF THE SECURITY AND INTELLIGENCE TEAMS IN BOTH THE UNITED STATES AND ISRAEL ARE WORKING COLLABORATIVELY AND WE GET SOME PERIODIC INFORMATION FROM THEM. BUT REALLY, I DON'T THINK WE KNOW A LOT MORE. >> Linsey: WE'VE BEEN TOLD PRESIDENT BIDEN AND VICE PRESIDENT HARRIS DID SPEAK WITH BENJAMIN NETANYAHU TODAY, THERE ARE REPORTS THAT HE SEEMS INTENT ON SCUTTLING ANY POSSIBILITY OF A DEAL. WHAT DO YOU THINK IS THE SOURCE OF THE DELAY? >> I THINK WITH ALL OF THE GOODWILL CERTAINLY THIS ADMINISTRATION AND THE UNITED STATES CONGRESS PRESSED BOTH SIDES OF THE AISLE AND SOME OTHER WORLD LEADERS COME AT THE END OF THE DAY ALL THE HOSTAGE FAMILIES REALLY RIGHT NOW SIT IN THE HANDS OF TWO MEN. PRIME MINISTER BENJAMIN NETANYAHU AND HAMAS. ALL WE CAN DO IS PUSH AND PUSH AND PUSH AND GET THOSE TWO LEADERS TO MAKE THE DECISION THAT WILL STOP THIS, RELEASE THE HOSTAGES, IT'S WHAT IS BEST FOR ALL OF THE PEOPLE, ALL OF THE REGION. WHY IS IT SCUTTLED -- WE DON'T KNOW. MAYBE IT'S POLITICAL, WE DON'T KNOW. >> Linsey: WE HEARD YOUR ADDRESS SAYING YOU ALL FEEL LIKE YOU ARE ON A DIFFERENT PLANET, BUT ANYONE WHO WAS A PARENT OR HAS PARENTS CAN UNDERSTAND -- I'M CURIOUS WHAT'S GETTING THROUGH THESE 320 DAYS? >> I THINK IT'S A COMBINATION FIRST OF ALL, IT'S THE RESPONSE OF ANY PARENT IN THE ANIMAL KINGDOM WHEN YOU THINK YOUR CHILD IS IN DANGER. IT'S THIS REFLEXIVE, NATURAL RESPONSE, IT'S ALSO HAVING SO MANY PEOPLE WHO ARE PRAYING AND SUPPORTING US AND LOVING US FROM ALL AROUND THE WORLD. WHAT'S KNOW WHEN WE CAN'T LET HERSH DOWN. WE WAKE UP IN THE MORNING AND WE FORCE OURSELVES TO PUT ON THIS FACADE OF BEING THIS PERSON AND WE RUN TO THE ENDS OF THE EARTH TO TRY TO SAVE HIM AND TRY TO SAVE ALL OF THEM. >> Linsey: WHAT CAN YOU TELL US ABOUT HIS CHARACTER? WE HEARD YOU SAY HERSH IF YOU CAN HEAR US, SURVIVE. JUST SHARE A LITTLE BIT ABOUT WHAT WE DON'T KNOW THAT YOU ALL WOULD ONLY KNOW ABOUT HIS MENTAL AND COURAGE. >> HERSH IS A VERY KIND, PATIENT, THINKING PERSON WHO GIVES A LOT OF ROOM FOR PEOPLE TO BE WHO THEY ARE AND HE IS VERY CURIOUS, HE LIKES TO ASK QUESTIONS AND LEAVE ROOM FOR YOU TO EXPRESS WHAT YOU ARE THI THINKING. HE'S SOMEONE WHO I THINK BECAUSE OF HIS THOUGHTFULNESS HAS A DEEP STRENGTH. I THINK HE HAS A MENTAL STRENGTH AND THAT GOD WILLING IS GETTING HIM THROUGH THIS HORRIFYING CHAPTER THAT NONE OF US CAN IMAGINE. >> Linsey: NONE OF CAN IMAGINE. WE HEARD YOU SAY EARLIER THIS IS NOT A POLITICAL ISSUE ITS HUMANITARIAN ONE AND THE ROOM REALLY DID ERUPT IN APPLAUSE AND RESPONSE TO THAT. OUR HEARTS GO OUT TO YOU, WE THANK YOU SO MUCH FOR COMING ON AND TALKING WITH US TONIGHT, WE APPRECIATE IT.

WE GOT A SNEAK PEEK OF THE KNIGHTS SPEECH AND A VIDEO ABOUT GOVERNOR TIM WALZ NARRATED BY HIS WIFE GWEN. IT DEPICTS HIM AS A FOOTBALL COACH, TEACHER, FATHER, HUNTER, GUN OWNER, WHAT SHOULD WE EXPECT ABOUT HIS REMARKS TONIGHT? >> A PHOTO OF HIM MISSING A BUTTON ON HIS FLANNEL -- THAT'S THE MESSAGE THAT THEY WANT OUT THERE TONIGHT. IT'S ONLY DAY 15 OF HIM BEING ON THE TICKETS. THIS IS A MOMENT WHERE HE GETS TO INTRODUCE HIMSELF, THEY WANT TO GET THE NARRATIVE BACK AROUND SMALL TOWN VALUES. THEY WANT TO GET IN THIS MESSAGE OF JOY AND ENTHUSIASM. WE HAVE SEEN THOSE PICTURES OF HIM OUT IN THE CAMPAIGN TRAIL IT LOOKS LIKE HE'S HAVING THE VERY BEST TIME MY. THAT'S A LOT OF ENERGY WE'RE GOING TO SEE FROM HIM. YOU SEE A LITTLE BIT OF THAT VIDEO THE CAMPAIGN HAS RELEASED, I ASKED SPECIFICALLY WILL THEY USE THEM ON THE CAMPAIGN TRAIL AT FOOTBALL GAMES I WAS TOLD ABSOLUTELY HE'S A STAR RETAIL POLITICIAN, YOU CAN IMAGINE HIM CAMPAIGNING NONSTOP. >> Linsey: THAT MAKES THEM DUMB ACCENTS HAVING ABOUT ON THE GRIDIRON. YOU SPOKE TO HIS FORMER STUDENTS, WHAT ARE THEY HAVE TO SAY ABOUT TIM WALZ THE TEACHER? SPEAK OF IS A LOT OF AFFECTION FROM A LOT OF ADMIRATION. IT WAS INTERESTING HOW MANY OF THEM SAID THEY FELT HE WENT OUT TO THE LIMIT FOR THEM. ONE GENTLEMAN IN PARTICULAR TALKED ABOUT HOW HARD IT WAS FOR HIM TO COME OUT AS A YOUNG GAY STUDENT THE 90s BUT TIM WALZ HAD HIS BACK, TAKE A LISTEN. SPEAK OF THE 90s WAS NOT AN EASY TIME TO BE A GAY STUDENT IN AMERICA, TIM WALZ MADE IT SAFE FOR ME TO COME OUT TO. THEY SUPPORTED STUDENTS ON THE MARGINS, THEY MADE HIM FEEL WELCOME. >> THEY TOLD ME HE WAS THE KIND OF TEACHER WHO WORKED HARD WITH EXTRA HOURS WITH COACHING AND STARTING THE STUDENT CLUBS. THEY TALKED ABOUT HOW THEY LIKE THE IDEA OF A TEACHER BEING FEATURED ON RESIDENTIAL BALLOT A LOT OF DEMOCRATS TOLD ME THEY FEEL FRUSTRATED ABOUT REPUBLIC ATTACKS AGAINST PUBLIC EDUCATION OF THE EXCITED TO HAVE A LONG TIME UNION MEMBER AND TEACHER OUT THERE TALKING ABOUT PUBLIC EDUCATION. >> Linsey: SINCE HE BECAME THE VP PICK OBVIOUSLY HE IS COME UNDER INTENSE SCRUTINY PARTICULARLY BY THE G.O.P. ON EVERYTHING FROM HIS MILITARY RANK TO THE STATE BUDGET IN MINNESOTA TO HOW HE DESCRIBED HIS FAMILY'S FERTILITY TREATMENTS. DO YOU THINK THE ATTACKS OF AN EFFECTIVE IN TARNISHING THIS VP PICK? >> DO NO HARM -- ANY TERMS OR IN THE HEADLINES LIKE THAT IT'S NOT HELPFUL. YOU SHOULD BE A DISTRACTION. ABSOLUTELY HAS BEEN A DIFFERENCE I DON'T THINK REPUBLICANS ARE GOING TO LET UP IN ANY WAY THIS IS A NARRATIVE THEY WANT TO TALK ABOUT HIM, SOMEBODY WAS LOOSE WITH THE FACTS AND EMBELLISHES HIS RECORD TO. I ASKED THE CAMPAIGN ABOUT THIS THEY BRUSH IT OFF, THEY SAY TRUMP AND J.D. VANCE ARE THE ONES THAT LIE CONSISTENTLY. THEY SAY IT'S STUPID AND MISGUIDED IT'S THE EXACT WORDS FROM A SENIOR STAFFER, STUPID AND MISGUIDED FOR THEM TO BE ATTACKING HIM WHEN HE TALKS ABOUT THE FERTILITY JOURNEY HE HAD WITH HIS WIFE, THAT WAS REALLY PERSONAL STORY. THEY THINK GWEN IS GOING TO BE OUT THERE MORE TALK ABOUT HER FERTILITY JOURNEY AND HOW SHE WENT THROUGH TREATMENTS TO GET PREGNANT AND HOW THAT IS SOMETHING THAT IS IMPORTANT TO HER, THE WAY SHE IS CONNECTING WITH OTHER WOMEN. IT'S INTERESTING WHEN HE WAS FIRST ANNOUNCED TO THE TOP OF THE TICKET, HOW MANY VETERANS ORGANIZATIONS CAME OUT AND SUPPORTED HIM. IT WILL BE REALLY INTERESTING IN THESE NEXT FEW DAYS TO SEE IF HE TALKS ABOUT HIS WORK AT SUPPORTING VETERANS OR IF THOSE ATTACKS FROM REPUBLICANS KEEP HIM IN ANY WAY FROM TALK ABOUT HIS SERVICE RECORD AND TALKING ABOUT THAT WORK. >> Linsey: AS WE GET TO KNOW TIM WALZ WHAT STRIKES ME IS HOW DIFFERENT THE TWO ARE. KAMALA HARRIS AND TIM WALZ, NOT JUST A RACE AND GENDER BUT WHAT DO YOU THINK THE HARRIS CAMPAIGN IS HOPING -- YOU KNOW WHAT? WE ACTUALLY HAVE CONGRESSMAN BENNIE THOMPSON HITTING THE STAGE, HOLD THAT THOUGHT TO. WE WILL RETURN TO YOU. LET'S TAKE A LOOK SIN TO BENNY THOMPSON, 16 TERM CONGRESSMAN FROM MISSISSIPPI, MANY PEOPLE REMEMBER HIM AS THE CHAIRMAN OF THE HOUSE SELECT COMMITTEE TO INVESTIGATE THE JANUARY 6TH ATTACK. >> I HAVE ONE GOAL, TO UPHOLD THE VOTES OF THE AMERICAN PEOPLE, THE CORNERSTONE OF OUR AMERICAN DEMOCRACY. AS FOR WHAT YOU JUST WITNESSED, LET ME REMIND YOU THE MEMBERS OF THAT VIOLENT MOB HAD ANOTHER GOAL. THEY WANTED TO STOP THE PEACEFUL TRANSFER OF POWER FOR THE FIRST TIME IN AMERICAN DEMOCRACY. THANK GOD THEY FAILED TO. [CHEERS AND APPLAUSE] BECAUSE IN THIS COUNTRY, WE SETTLE OUR DIFFERENCES AT THE BALLOT BOX. NOT THROUGH VIOLENCE. IT TOOK A LONG TIME TO GET HERE AND WE ARE NOT GOING BACK. [CHEERS AND APPLAUSE] I REMEMBER THAT DARK HISTORY, IT'S MY OWN HISTORY. IN THIS LIFE, MY FATHER NEVER CAST A VOTE BECAUSE OF JIM CROW. I DEDICATED MY CAREER TO PROTECTING THE VOTES AGAINST VIOLENCE AND DISCRIMINATION. YOU CAN IMAGINE WHAT I FELT ON JANUARY 6TH WHEN I SAW WITH MY OWN EYES THOSE INSURRECTIONIST'S TRYING TO TAKE THAT AWAY. THEY DID IT TO ROB THE MILLIONS OF AMERICANS OF THEIR VOTES. THEY DID BECAUSE DONALD TRUMP COULDN'T HANDLE LOSING. HE LIED ABOUT ELECTION FRAUDS, HE CALLED HIS CONSPIRACY LED MOB TO WASHINGTON. HE WOULD RATHER SUBVERT DEMOCRACY THEN SUBMIT TO IT. NOW HE'S PLOTTING AGAIN. 'S CAMPAIGN PROCLAIMS ELECTIONS WANT END UNTIL THE MOMENT OF INAUGURATION. WE WILL WIN OR IT WAS RIGGED. WE WIN OR ELSE. THIS IS DONALD TRUMP'S AMERICA. ELECTIONS ARE ABOUT CHOICE. CHOOSE DEMOCRACY, NOT POLITICAL VIOLENCE. CHOOSE THE AMERICA WE ALWAYS TAUGHT OUR CHILDREN TO LOVE. CHOOSE KAMALA HARRIS. [CHEERS AND APPLAUSE] >> WE'LL COME BACK TO YOU, MARYALICE PARKS THANK YOU SO MUCH. JOINING US US NOT TO NEWS CONTRIBUTOR AND DEMOCRATIC STRATEGIST DONNA BRAZILE AND REPUBLICAN STRATEGIST REINCE PRIEBUS, WHAT YOU'RE GOING TO BE LOOKING FOR IN TIM WALZ'S SPEECH TONIGHT? [INAUDIBLE] >> >> Linsey: WE DON'T HAVE YOUR MIC RIGHT NOW I'M GOING TO BRING IN REINCE PRIEBUS, HOPEFULLY WE HAVE HIM ANOTHER FORMER TRUMP OFFICIAL OLIVIA TROY IS AMONG TONIGHT'S SPEAKERS, WHAT DO YOU THINK WE CAN EXPECT TO HEAR FROM HER TONIGHT? >> SHE'S GOING TO TALK SHE DOESN'T LIKE DONALD TRUMP ACHIEVED IS GOING TO TALK ABOUT HER TIME IN THE WHITE HOUSE. AT ALL PLAYS INTO WHAT THE DEMOCRATS ARE TRYING TO DO THIS WEEK THEY ARE TRYING TO MAKE THIS WEEK ABOUT DONALD TRUMP AND THAT IS OBVIOUS AND DONALD TRUMP IS TRYING TO MAKE THIS RACE ABOUT KAMALA HARRIS POTS VS ISSUES AND RECORD AND THAT'S WHAT THIS RACE IS GOING TO BE ABOUT TO. THIS IS THEIR WEEK, I THINK THEY HAVE MENTIONED DONALD TRUMP 150 TIMES, I THINK THEY MENTION INFLATION FIVE TIMES. THIS IS THEIR PLAYBOOK, I DON'T BLAME THEM FOR IT AND THIS IS WHAT THEY ARE GOING TO DO. IT'S ALL ABOUT TRUMP THIS WEEK AT THE DNC. >> Linsey: I WANT TO TALK ABOUT OLIVIA IN PARTICULAR SHE WAS AT ONE TIME IN THE TRUMP ADMINISTRATION SHE SAID ON JANUARY 6TH SHE SAW HE WAS A DANGER, HE WAS IN FACT A THREAT TO DEMOCRACY. >> THAT'S WHAT SHE SAYS, SHE WAS SOMEONE WHO WAS HIGH UP IN THE WEST WING, SHE WAS WORKING FOR MIKE PENCE. I'M NOT DISMISSING HER POINT OF VIEW I'M JUST TELLING YOU THIS A LOT OF POINTS OF VIEW FROM THAT WHITE HOUSE, SOME OF THE MARKET OF SOME OF THEM ARE BAD AND I THINK THE AMERICAN PEOPLE ARE GOING TO HAVE TO MAKE THEIR CHOICE. ULTIMATELY LIKE I SAID MANY TIMES BEFORE, THIS GOING TO COME DOWN TO HELP PEOPLE PEEL ABOUT THE ECONOMY, THE BORDER AND ALL THE ISSUES PEOPLE ARE FACING OUT THERE. EVENTUALLY GRAVITY IS GOING TO SET IN. THE MAIN THING FOR PRESIDENT TRUMP SPEAKING WITH A LOT OF FOLKS WORKING FOR PRESIDENT TRUMP'S CAMPAIGN, THEY ARE LETTING THIS WAVE RIGHT OUT IN THE NEXT COUPLE OF WEEKS, GETTING PAST LABOR DAY AND HAVING THIS RACE GET BACK TO EVEN. I THINK ONCE THINGS SETTLE DOWN AND GRAVITY SETS IN, -- >> Linsey: DONNA I THINK WE HAVE YOUR MICROPHONE WORKING AT NOW, GIVE US A SENSE OF WHAT YOU EXPECT TO HEAR FROM TIM WALZ TONIGHT AND DO YOU THINK IT'S GOING TO RESONATE WITH THE AMERICAN VOTERS? >> TO WHAT MR. REINCE PRIEBUS WAS TALKING ABOUT, INFLATION IS COMING DOWN, WAGES ARE RISING. MANUFACTURING JOBS ARE GROWING. TIM IS GOING TO TELL THAT QUINTESSENTIAL AMERICAN STORY, STORY WE ALL KNOW ABOUT HOW THE INPUT STRUCTURE BILL IS HELPING COMMUNITIES ACROSS THE COUNTRY, HOW WE HAVE CONNECTED COMMUNITIES IN RURAL AREAS TO THE INTERNET. I THINK TONIGHT TIM WALZ WHO IS A FORMER TEACHER, COACH, NATIONAL GUARDSMEN, MEMBER OF CONGRESS, THE GOVERNOR OF A WONDERFUL, BEAUTIFUL STATE IS GOING TO TELL HIS STORY THROUGH THE LENS WE ALL SHARE AS AMERICANS, FREEDOM. THE FREEDOM TO CHOOSE, THE FREEDOM TO BE WHO YOU ARE, TO LOVE WHO YOU WANT TO. HE HAS ALSO GOOD TO TALK ABOUT THE ECONOMY AS WELL. >> Linsey: IF YOU WILL STAND BY WITH US FOR A MOMENT WE WANT TO GO DOWN TO THE FLOOR WORK CONGRESSMAN FROM NEW JERSEY ANDY KIM IS ADDRESSING THE DELEGATES. >> THAT NIGHT, I WALKED INTO THE ROTUNDA. THE FLOOR WAS COVERED IN BROKEN GLASS AND GARBAGE. STREWN WITH THE CHAOS UNLEASHED BY DONALD TRUMP. I THOUGHT TO MYSELF, HOW DID IT GET THIS BAD? I DID THE ONLY THING I COULD THINK OF. I GRABBED A TRASH BAG AND STARTED CLEANING UP. WHAT I LEARNED ON JANUARY 6TH IS ALL OF US, ALL OF US ARE CARETAKERS FOR OUR GREAT REPUBLIC. WE CAN HEAL THIS COUNTRY BUT ONLY IF WE TRY. MANY OF YOU ARE DOING YOUR PART THROUGH YOUR VOICES AND YOUR VOTES, ALWAYS REMEMBER THIS CHAOS THAT WE SEE IT DOESN'T HAVE TO BE THIS WAY. AS A FATHER I REFUSE TO BELIEVE OUR KIDS ARE DOOMED TO GROW UP IN A BROKEN AMERICA. THERE IS A HUNGER RIGHT NOW IN THIS COUNTRY FOR A NEW GENERATION OF LEADERSHIP TO STEP UP. LET'S CHOOSE KAMALA HARRIS IN TIM WALZ. LET'S DO THIS FOR OUR KIDS AND OUR GRANDKIDS. THANK YOU. [CHEERS AND APPLAUSE] >> Linsey: ANDY KIM, CONGRESSMAN FROM NEW JERSEY. LET'S BRING YOU BACK IN FOR ONE MINUTE -- I WANT TO GO DOWN TO YOU ON THE CONVENTION FLOOR. WE HAVE BEEN HEARING A LITTLE BIT OF EXCERPTS SO FAR ABOUT JANUARY 6TH, WE JUST HEARD FROM BENNIE THOMPSON, CONGRESSMAN THERE. WHAT YOU THINK THE MESSAGING IS TONIGHT FROM DEMOCRATS ON JANUARY 6TH? >> JANUARY 6TH IS PLAYING A BIG ROLE IN MESSAGING TONIGHT. WE HAVE HEARD DEMOCRATS TALK ABOUT WHAT THEY SAY IS A THREAT TO DEMOCRACY. AT ONE POINT THEY PUT TRUMP'S CHARGES T AS IT RELATES TO THE CAPITOL ATTACK ON THE SCREEN AND THERE WAS A CHAIR THAT ERUPTED IN THE ROOM AND THERE WERE CHAMPS OF LOCK HIM UP, LOCK HIM UP -- THAT STANDS IN STARK CONTRAST TO THE RNC WHERE THE REPUBLICAN NATIONAL CONVENTION JUST A FEW WEEKS AGO WHEN THERE WAS VIRTUALLY NO MENTION OF JANUARY 6TH THEY ARE. THERE WAS ONE PERSON ON THE FLOOR THAT SAID "FREE THE JANUARY 6 HOSTAGES." THAT WAS JUST ABOUT IT AT THAT CONVENTION WHEN IT COMES TO THE CAPITOL ATTACK. DONALD TRUMP DOES TALK ABOUT THE JANUARY 6 ON THE CAMPAIGN TRAIL, HE USES IT FOR THE POLITICAL PURPOSES AND DOWNPLAYS VIOLENCE OF THE CAPITAL THAT DAY. 140 POLICE OFFICERS WAS INJURED, HE QUOTED THE IDEA OF PARDONING THEM. TWO VERY DIFFERENT STARK CONTRASTS IN MESSAGING WHEN IT COMES TO THE CAPITOL ATTACK PLAYING OUT IN THIS CAMPAIGN. >> Linsey: JAY O'BRIEN I THINK WE ARE GOING TO HAVE TO MAKE A JUDGMENT CALL HERE BECAUSE STEVIE WONDER HAS NOW ENTERED THE BUILDING. IS ABOUT TO PERFORM, I HOPE YOU UNDERSTAND WE HAVE TO LISTEN TO STEVIE WONDER. >> I LOVE YOU. EVERY SONG THAT I SING TO MY EVERY SONG THAT I HAVE WRITTEN IS BECAUSE OF MY LOVE FOR YOU RIGHT HERE. THIS YEAR, I PRAYED VERY HARD FOR PEACE TO COME TO OUR NAT NATION'S BUT ALSO TO EACH ONE OF OUR HEARTS. EVEN THOUGH OUR HEARTS HAVE BEEN BEATEN AND BROKEN. BEYOND PRAYER, I KNOW THE IMPORTANCE OF ACTION AND NOW IS THE TIME TO UNDERSTAND WHERE WE ARE AND WHAT IT WILL TAKE TO W WIN. WIN THE BROKEN HEARTS. WIN THE DISENCHANTED. WIN THE ANGRY SPIRITS. NOW IS THE TIME. [CHEERS AND APPLAUSE] THIS IS THE MOMENT TO REMEMBER WHEN YOU WILL TELL YOUR CHILDREN WHERE YOU WERE AND WHAT YOU DID AS WE STAND BETWEEN HISTORIES PAIN AND TOMORROW'S PROMISES. WE MUST CHOOSE COURAGE OVER COMPLACENCY. IT IS TIME TO GET UP AND GO V VOTE! LISTEN, THE CHOICE IS CLEAR. CLEARER THAN ANYONE ELSE'S SAYING? DO YOU HEAR ME? CLEARER THAN ANYONE ELSE'S SAYING, YOU FEEL ME? WE NEED TO CHOOSE JOY OVER AN ANGER, KINDNESS OVER RECRIMINATION, AND PEACE OVER WAR. EVERY TIME. WE MUST CHOOSE TO BE ABOVE THE WORDS, THE HATEFUL ANGER, AND THE DIVISION THOSE WORDS AND ANGER CREATE. WE MUST KEEP ON KEEPING ON UNTIL WE TRULY ARE A UNITED PEOPLE OF THESE UNITED STATES. AND THEN, WE WILL REACH OUR HIGHER GROUND. ARE YOU READY TO REACH A HIGHER GROUND? [CHEERS AND APPLAUSE] ARE YOU READY TO REACH A HIGHER, HIGHER, HIGHER GROUND -- I WANT TO HEAR YOU AGAIN, ARE YOU RE READY? ARE YOU READY? YOU KNOW WE NEED KAMALA HARRIS. [CHEERS AND APPLAUSE] AND WE NEED A GREAT MAN AS WE DO HAVE IS A FUTURE VICE PRESIDENT, YOU KNOW THAT. YOU KNOW WHAT? I'M DEPENDING ON YOU TO DO AS SPIKE LEE WOULD SAY, THE RIGHT THING.

BUT I GOT TO TELL YOU, THE PARTY IS GOING TO KEEP GOING. >> Linsey: THAT'S OUR COVERAGE FOR THIS HOUR BUT IN JUST A FEW MOMENTS I WILL BE JOINING DAVID MUIR AND ARE ENTIRE POWERHOUSE POLITICAL PANEL. NANCY PELOSI, BILL CLINTON AND A NEWLY MINTED VP CANDIDATE TIM WALZ ALL COMING UP. STAY TUNED AS OUR COVERAGE OF THE DEMOCRATIC NATIONAL CONVENTION NIGHT 3 CONTINUES AFTER THIS. >> TONIGHT, LIVE COVERAGE OF THE DEMOCRATIC NATIONAL CONVENTION RIGHT HERE IN CHICAGO, VICE PRESIDENT, HARRIS' RUNNING MATE MINNESOTA GOVERNOR TIM WELLS AND HIS MAJOR SPEECH IN FRONT OF THE NATION READY TO INTRODUCE HIMSELF TO AMERICA. HE MARRIED FATHER SERVING 24 YEARS IN THE NATIONAL GUARD.

OUR COVERAGE FOR RACE FOR PRESIDENT AT THE DEMOCRATIC NATIONAL CONVENTION STARTS RIGHT NOW. >> THIS IS A ABC NEWS SPECIAL IN JUST MINUTES, FORMER PRESIDENT BILL CLINTON PLUS A SPECIAL APPEARANCE BY OPRAH WINFREY, AND THEN IT IS HIS BIG NIGHT. >> A HECK OF A LOT CAN CHANGE IN FOUR WEEKS. >> HE WAS A FOOTBALL COACH, CONGRESSMAN, AND NOW THE GOVERNOR OF MINNESOTA. >> I COULDN'T BE PROUDER TO BE ON THE TICKET AND HELP MAKE KAMALA HARRIS THE NEXT PRESIDENT OF THE UNITED STATES. >> THE MAN WHO WOULD BE HER VICE PRESIDENT, TIM WALZ TAKES THE STAGE IN THE RACE FOR THE WHITE HOUSE. THE DEMOCRATIC NATIONAL CONVENTION LIVE FROM CHICAGO NOW REPORTING DAVID MIRROR. >> YOU'RE LOOKING LIVE AT THE CONVENTION HALL HERE IN CHICAGO, ANOTHER ENERGETIC NIGHT RIGHT HERE INSIDE HALL NIGHT THREE WELL UNDER WAY AS THAT CAMERA MOVES IN ON THE "ABC NEWS" BROADCAST BOOTH HERE IN CHICAGO. GOOD EVENING, THANK YOU FOR JOINING US ON THIS PIVOTAL THURSDAY NIGHT OF THE DEMOCRATIC NATIONAL CONVENTION, VICE PRESIDENTIAL CANDIDATE TIM WALZ IN THE SPOTLIGHT TONIGHT. THE GOVERNOR OF MINNESOTA WILL BE INTRODUCING HIMSELF TO AMERICA, THE HIGH-STAKES ADDRESS MAKING HIS CASE FOR KAMALA HARRIS FOR PRESIDENT. GOVERNOR WALZ A RELATIVELY UNKNOWN MUCH OF THE COUNTRY UNTIL 15 DAYS AGO WHEN VICE PRESIDENT HARRIS CHOSE HIM TO BE HER RUNNING MATE THAT INCLUDED PENNSYLVANIA GUM AT HER JOSH SHAPIRO , ANDY BESHEAR, AND MARK KELLY. WALZ MADE A STRONG IMPRESSION WITH DEMOCRATIC CANDIDATES OUT OF THE GATE. SOCIAL STUDIES TEACHER, FOOTBALL COACH THEM A RETIRED MEMBER OF THE NATIONAL GUARD, 24 YEARS WITH THE NATIONAL GUARD. GOVERNOR WALZ KNOWS FOR HIS CHARM, SENSE OF HUMOR GROWING UP ON A NEBRASKA FARM, AND MANY HAVE SEEN THE VIDEOS OF HIM AND HIS DAUGHTER HOPE AT THE MINNESOTA STATE FAIR. THGOVERNOR WALZ WASTING NO TIME CHALLENGING DONALD TRUMP AND J.D. VANCE. VANCE WHO'S DONALD TRUMP MEANWHILE INNORTH T OUTDOOR EVENT IN A BATTLEGROUND STATE SINCE THE ATTEMPT ON HIS LIFE. FORMER PRESIDENT SPEAKING BEHIND BULLETPROOF GLASS. MEANWHILE HE CHICAGO, FORMER PRESIDENT BILL CLINTON MINUTES AWAY AND OPRAH WINFREY SAID TO O TAKE THE STAGE WHERE KAMALA HARRIS RUNNING MATE TIM WALZ. OF COURSE, RACHEL SCOTT, TERRY MORAN, ALL ON THE FLOOR WITH US AGAIN TONIGHT. NIGHT THREE, WE ARE NIGHT THREE AND LINSEY DAVIS, A RELATIVE UNKNOWN, 15 DAYS AGO BUT EVERYBODY KNOWS HIS FLANNEL SHIRTS AND HIS FOLKSY CHARM. >> YOU MENTION OPRAH WINFREY, YOU MENTION SHE'S GOING OUT ON THE STAGE THEN YOU GET ABOUT, YOU GET A VOTE. WITH REGARD TO TIM WALZ, THIS IS SOMEBODY WHO PRIOR TO THE 15 DAYS AGO HAD NEVER USED A TELEPROMPTER. I THINK THAT SAYS A LOT ABOUT HIM NOT BEING A CAREER POLITICIAN SO MANY PEOPLE ARE USE TO. STRIKINGLY DIFFERENT BACKGROUNDS BETWEEN THE TWO OF THEM. IF KAMALA HARRIS, WE HAVE HER AS A CAREER ATTORNEY, GREW UP IN DEEP BLUE CALIFORNIA STATE AND ON THE OPPOSITE SIDE WITH TRUMP INCOME A HUNTER, VETERAN, THE INTERESTING THING ABOUT HIM. THE FIRST DEMOCRATIC VP PICK SINCE 1964 THAT DID NOT ATTEND LAW SCHOOL. ADDITIONALLY, IT'S GOOD TO BE INTERESTING TO HEAR FROM TWO PEOPLE WHO HELPED TO SET THE NIGHT INTO MOTION. PERHAPS NANCY PELOSI, MINORITY LEADER HAKEEM JEFFRIES WOULD NOT BE IN THIS PLACE TODAY BUT HAKEEM JEFFRIES AT THE TOP OF THE EVENING. >> David: WILL BE GOING TO HIM LIVE ON THE FLOOR MOMENTS FROM NOW, MARY BRUCE, WE COVERED PRESIDENT BILL CLINTON. WHAT HE'S DONE SINCE HE LEFT THE PRESIDENCY, BUT LIKE WHAT HE'S FAMOUS FOR HER BACK IN THE DAY WHEN HE DELIVERED SPEECHES, WE HAVE NEW REPORTING TONIGHT HE HAS BEEN TWEAKING IF NOT RIPPING UP PARTS OF HIS SPEECH WHEN HE SAW THE OTHER PERFORMANCES HERE. >> CLASSIC CLINTON FASHION, HE'S GONE BACK TO THE DRAWING BOARD. WE UNDERSTAND AFTER THE ENERGY AND ENTHUSIASM AFTER THE FIRST NIGHT HE REALIZED HE NEEDED TO MAKE A CHANGE. WE ARE TOLD HE'S GOING TO STRIKE A MORE JOYFUL TONE, HOPEFUL, ASPIRATIONAL. IF HE'S GOING TO PRAISE KAMALA HARRIS FOR THE STRENGTH AND CHARACTER AND DRAW THE SHARP CONTRAST BETWEEN HER AND DONALD TRUMP. IT'S GOING TO COME AS THE HARRIS CAMPAIGNS TRYING TO UP THE APPEAL TO THE KEY WORKING-CLASS VOTERS, SOMETHING BILL CLINTON KNOW SOMETHING ABOUT. IT'S SOMETHING WORTH REMEMBERING THE CLINTONS AND THE FIRST BIG DEMOCRATIC PARTY TO COME OUT AND BACK KAMALA HARRIS AFTER SHE ANNOUNCED SHE WAS GETTING IN THE RACE LESS THAN 20 MINUTES LATER. >> David: YOU THINK ABOUT THE DEMOCRATIC HEAVYWEIGHTS THAT HAVE SPOKEN AT THE CONVENTION, THE OBAMA'S LAST DAY OF THE FORMER PRESIDENT, FORMER FIRST LADY, HILLARY CLINTON THE NIGHT BEFORE AND SO BILL CLINTON MUST HAVE SOME OF THE COMPETITIVE EDGE AND TWEAKING THE SCRIPT BEFORE HE SPEAKS AT THE CONVENTION MOMENTS AGO. YOU HAD A STRIKING OBSERVATION ABOUT THE NUMBER OF REPUBLICANS WHO HAVE BEEN INVITED TO SPEAK HERE AT THIS CONVENTION AND THE RESOUNDING SORT OF APPLAUSE AND THE MESSAGE THEY'VE DELIVERED. >> EVERY SINGLE NIGHT FEET FEATUREDREPUBLICAN SPEAKERS. AND ALSO GEOFF DUNCAN, VERY CONSERVATIVE, THE LIEUTENANT GOVERNOR OF GEORGIA, THEY'VE ENDORSED KAMALA HARRIS BECAUSE THEY SAID THEY ARE HORRIFIED BY WHAT THEY SAW PLAY OUT DURING THE DONALD TRUMP ADMINISTRATION, ESPECIALLY AFTER THE ELECTION AND ON THE 11TH. JANUARY 6TH.THE APPLAUSE WAS THN THE FLOOR FOR A REPUBLICAN AND A CHANCE TO START BREAKING OUT OF USA, USA, USA FOR THE FORMER REPUBLICAN GOVERNOR. >> David: AN EXTRAORDINARY MOMENT IN THE DEMOCRATIC CONVENTION. IT TALKING ABOUT THE MILLIONS WATCHING, YOU VOTE FOR KAMALA HARRIS OUT THERE, YOU'RE NOT A DEMOCRAT, YOU ARE A PATRIOT. >> ABSOLUTELY, I'VE SEEN CONVENTIONS IN THE PAST THAT FEATURE ONE SPEAKER FROM ANOTHER PARTY THAT CROSSED OVER ABOUT THIS IS A RECURRING THEME EACH AND EVERY NIGHT. LOOKING TO TRY TO ATTRACT THE REPUBLICANS. WE MAY NOT AGREE WITH KAMALA HARRIS ON THE ISSUES, BUT OUR DISAFFECTED, DISSATISFIED WITH WHAT THEY W WITNESSED WITH DONALD TRUMP. >> David: ONE OF THE THEME HAS BEEN THE PASSING OF THE TORCH TO THE NEXT GENERATION. ON THE AUDIENCE AND ON THE STAGE, FORMER SPEAKER NANCY PELOSI, MANY HAVE SAID THAT SHE'S BEEN ONE OF THE MAIN ARCHITECTS GETTING KAMALA HARRIS FRONT AND CENTER AND JOE BIDEN TO STEP ASIDE TO BOW OUT OF THE RACE. HAKEEM JEFFRIES WILL BE THE LEAD SPEAKER IN THE PRIME TIME OUR WHO WAS ALSO CERTAINLY SUPPORTED BY NANCY PELOSI WHEN SHE DECIDED TO PASS THE TORCH. >> ESPECIALLY NANCY PELOSI, YOU LOOK BACK, A LIFELONG FRIENDSHIP WITH JOE BIDEN, RESPECT FOR JOE BIDEN, BACKING UP JOE BIDEN, BUT AFTER THE DEBATE AND THE DISASTROUS DEBATES, NANCY PELOSI DECIDED THAT JOE BIDEN HAD TO GO. WHEN THE MESSAGE WAS DELIVERED TO JOE BIDEN, THEY HAD NOT SPOKEN SINCE. THE PRESIDENT SAID THEY HAVE NOT SPOKEN SINCE. SO KEY, CHUCK SCHUMER, ALSO MANY WERE OTHER KEYS. THAT WOMAN HAS MORE POWER THAN ANY WOMAN YOU CAN IMAGINE IN THE COUNTRY. AND SUCH HISTORY BEHIND HER AS THE PERSON WHO ULTIMATELY REALLY HELPED JOE BIDEN MAKE UP HIS MIND AND STEP ASIDE. SHE BASICALLY SAID YOU CANNOT WIN AND SHE HAS BEEN A HUGE SUPPORTER IMMEDIATELY OF KAMALA HARRIS. WE SAW HER DOWN THERE THE OTHER NIGHT WITH HER SIGN IN THE CALIFORNIA DELEGATION BACK IN KAMALA HARRIS, BUT THINKING JOE BIDEN. >> David: WE SAW HER EXACTLY RIGHT WITH THE SIGN THAT SAID "THANK YOU, JOE." HAKEEM JEFFRIES AT THE PODIUM, LET'S LISTEN. >> IS A HIGH HONOR AND A DISTINCT PRIVILEGE AS A BROOKLYN NIGHT, NEW YORKER, AND AN AMERICAN , TO STAND BEFORE YOU TODAY AND UNEQUIVOCALLY EXPRESS MY SUPPORT FOR KAMALA HARRIS AND TIM WALZ TO BE THE NEXT PRESIDENT AND VICE PRESIDENT OF THE UNITED STATES OF AMERICA! OVER THE LAST FEW YEARS, HOUSE DEMOCRATS HAVE BEEN HARD AT WORK. AND WE COULD NOT HAVE ASKED FOR A BETTER LEADER TO PARTNER WITH JOSEPH BIDEN WHO WILL BE GOING DOWN AS ONE OF THE MOST CONSEQUENTIAL PRESIDENTS OF ALL TIME. JOE BIDEN PASSED THE TORCH TO VICE PRESIDENT KAMALA HARRIS WHO WAS READY, WILLING, AND ABLE TO FIGHT FOR THE PEOPLE. KAMALA HARRIS IS A COURAGEOUS LEADER, A COMPASSIONATE LEADER, AND A COMMON SENSE LEADER WHO WILL DELIVER REAL RESULTS FOR EVERYDAY AMERICANS. KAMALA HARRIS IS FIGHTING FOR OUR FREEDOM. KAMALA HARRIS IS FIGHTING FOR OUR FAMILIES. KAMALA HARRIS IS FIGHTING FOR OUR FUTURE TOGETHER. LET'S MAKE KAMALA HARRIS THE 47TH PRESIDENT OF THE UNITED STATES OF AMERICA. [CHEERS AND APPLAUSE] IN OUR GREAT COUNTRY, WHEN YOU WORK HARD AND PLAY BY THE RULES, YOU DESERVE TO EARN A LIVING WAGE. YOU DESERVE TO HAVE AN AFFORDABLE PLACE TO CALL HOME. YOU DESERVE TO EDUCATE YOUR CHILDREN AND A GREAT PUBLIC SCHOOL THAT IS FREE FROM GUN VIOLENCE. AND YOU DESERVE HIGH QUALITY AFFORDABLE HEALTH CARE AND YOU DESERVE THE CHANCE TO ONE DAY RETIRE WITH GRACE AND DIGNITY. BEFORE FAR TOO MANY PEOPLE IN OUR GREAT COUNTRY THEY ARE STRUGGLING TO LIVE PAYCHECK TO PAYCHECK AND AS AS A RESULT,E AMERICA DREAM IS OUT OF REACH. EXTREME REPUBLICANS DO NOT CARE ABOUT EVERY DAY AMERICANS, THEY ONLY CARE ABOUT THEMSELVES. OUR APPROACH LED BY KAMALA HARRIS AND GOVERNOR WALZ IS VERY DIFFERENT. WE CARE ABOUT YOU, THE AMERICAN PEOPLE, AND WE WILL FIGHT HARD TO MAKE SURE THAT THE AMERICAN DREAM IS ALIVE AND WELL IN EVERY SINGLE COMMUNITY. NOW THE ROAD AHEAD WILL NOT BE EASY, WHICH BRINGS ME TO YOU KNOW WHO. DONALD TRUMP IS LIKE AN OLD BOYFRIEND WHO YOU BROKE UP WITH BUT HE JUST WON'T GO AWAY. HE HAS SPENT THE LAST FOUR YEARS SPINNING THE BLOCK, TRYING TO GET BACK INTO A RELATIONSHIP WITH THE AMERICAN PEOPLE. WE BROKE UP WITH YOU FOR A REASON. [CHEERS AND APPLAUSE] TRUMP WAS THE MASTERMIND OF THE G.O.P. TAX SCAM WHERE 83% OF THE BENEFITS WENT TO THE WEALTHIEST 1% IN AMERICA. IF TRUMP FAILED OUR COUNTRY DURING THE COVID-19 PANDEMIC. IF TRUMP IS A CHAOS AGENT FOCUSED ON HIMSELF AND NOT THE AMERICAN PEOPLE. IF TRUMP TRIED TO DESTROY OUR DEMOCRACY BY LYING ABOUT THE ELECTION AND INCITING A VIOLENT MOB TO ATTACK THE CAPITAL. TRUMP PUT THREE EXTREME JUSTICES ON THE SUPREME COURT WHO DESTROYED ROE V. WADE. WE BROKE UP WITH YOU FOR A REASON. DONALD TRUMP CAN SPIN THE BLOCK ALL HE WANTS, BUT THERE IS NO REASON FOR US TO EVER GET BACK TOGETHER. BEEN THERE, DONE THAT, WE ARE NOT GOING BACK. [CHEERS AND APPLAUSE] KAMALA HARRIS -- KAMALA HARRIS AND HOUSE DEMOCRATS WILL ALWAYS PUT PEOPLE OVER POLITICS. KAMALA HARRIS AND HOUSE DEMOCRATS WILL LOWER COSTS AND GROW THE MIDDLE CLASS. KAMALA HARRIS AND HOUSE DEMOCRATS WILL FIX OUR BROKEN IMMIGRATION SYSTEM AND SECURE THE BORDER. KAMALA HARRIS AND HOUSE DEMOCRATS WILL STRENGTHEN THE RELATIONSHIP BETWEEN THE POLICE AND THE COMMUNITY. KAMALA HARRIS AND HOUSE DEMOCRATS WILL CONTINUE TO COMBAT THE CLIMATE CRISIS WITH THE FIERCE URGENCY OF NOW. KAMALA HARRIS AND HOUSE DEMOCRATS WILL PROTECT SOCIAL SECURITY, PROTECT MEDICARE, PROTECT MEDICAID, PROTECT THE AFFORDABLE CARE ACT, PROTECT WORKING FAMILIES, PROTECT SMALL BUSINESSES, PROTECT THE MIDDLE CLASS, PROTECT FREE ENTERPRISE, PROTECT OUR CHILDREN, PROTECT OUR SENIORS, PROTECT OUR VETERANS, PROTECT OUR UNIONS, PROTECT OUR DREAMERS, AND ALWAYS PROTECT A WOMAN'S FREEDOM TO MAKE HER OWN REPRODUCTIVE HEALTH CARE DECISIONS. EXTREME MEGA RE MUGGER REPUBLICT TO DIVIDE US, BUT THE CONSTITUTION PROMISES EQUAL PROTECTION UNDER THE LAW. WE ARE ONE NATION UNDER GOD INDIVISIBLE WITH LIBERTY AND JUSTICE FOR ALL. TOGETHER, TOGETHER, TOGETHER, LET'S BUILD A BRIGHTER FUTURE FOR OUR CHILDREN AND OUR GRANDCHILDREN. IN THE OLD TESTAMENT, THE BOOK OF PSALMS, THIS SCRIPTURE TELLS US THAT WEEPING MAY ENDURE DURING THE LONG NIGHT BUT JOY WILL COME IN THE MORNING. [CHEERS AND APPLAUSE] HERE'S HOW WE DO IT, STRATEGIZE ON SUNDAY, MEET THE MOMENT ON MONDAY, TAKE IT TO THEM ON TUESDAY, WORK IT OUT ON WEDNESDAY. THANK THE LORD ON THURSDAY, FIGHT THE POWER ON FRIDAY, SAID IT OFF ON SATURDAY, GET A FEW HOURS OF SLEEP, WAKE UP THE NEXT DAY, AND DO IT ALL OVER AGAIN UNTIL JOY, JOY, JOY COMES IN THE MORNING. NOW ONLY 76 DAYS LEFT, THERE ARE ONLY 76 DAYS LEFT. WE MUST CONTINUE TO SPEAK UP, WE MUST CONTINUE TO SHOW UP, WE MUST CONTINUE TO STAND UP NOT AS DEMOCRATS OR REPUBLICANS, BUT AS AMERICANS. AND WHEN WE DO, NOTHING CAN STOP KAMALA HARRIS FROM BECOMING THE 47TH PRESIDENT OF THE UNITED STATES OF AMERICA. NOTHING CAN STOP HOUSE DEMOCRATS FROM TAKING BACK THE MAJORITY, NOTHING CAN STOP THE AMERICAN PEOPLE FROM CONTINUING OUR MARCH TOWARD A MORE PERFECT UNION, NOTHING CAN STOP US WE ARE ALL THE WAY UP. GOD BLESS YOU, GOD BLESS KAMALA HARRIS, MAY GOD BLESS THE UNITED STATES OF AMERICA. [CHEERS AND APPLAUSE] >> David: BLEEDING ON HIS FAITH, HAKEEM JEFFRIES MOTHER CALLED TO ACTION AT THE DEMOCRATIC NATIONAL CONVENTION, RACHEL SCOTT ON THE FLOOR. YOU TALKED ABOUT HAKEEM JEFFRIES' HOPE OF TAKING BACK THE HOUSE AND THE HOPE FROM HIM TONIGHT, BRO, WE BROKE UP WITH YOU FOR A REASON. >> THAT MESSAGE OF JOY SOMETHING HE SAID TO ME, AND EMPHASIZING HERE TONIGHT. NOW RALLYING BEHIND VICE PRESIDENT KAMALA HARRIS. >> David: LET'S GET TO TERRY MORAN ON THE FLOOR BECAUSE WE KNOW A SHORT TIME FROM NOW FORMER PRESIDENT BILL CLINTON WILL TAKE TO THE STAGE. WE WERE REPORTED AT THE TOP OF THE COVERAGE IN PRIME TIME THAT HE'LL BE WORKING ON THE SPEECH UNTIL THE VERY LAST MINUTE. YOU COVERED THE PRESIDENT AND HIS TWO TERMS AND YOU KNOW FULL WELL HE'S KNOWN THIS DAY FOR THE ABILITY TO TRY TO DESCRIBE POLICY AND IN PARTICULAR THE ECONOMY AND A TURN THAT EVERYBODY UNDERSTANDS THE AREA TO SPEAK TO WHETHER IT'S A PRESS CONFERENCE, A SPEECH, THE OVAL OFFICE ARE COMING BACK FROM A LONG FLIGHT OVERSEAS TALKING TO REPORTERS, THERE'S FEW THINGS BILL CLINTON LOVES MORE THAN EXG THE ECONOMIC POLICY AND PUTTING HIS ARGUMENT IN NO WAY PEOPLE CAN GRASP IT AND PERSUADED BY. IT WAS A GIFT. BARACK OBAMA CALLED HIM THE EXPLAINER IN CHIEF BACK IN 2012. BARACK OBAMA HAD TROUBLE JUSTIFYING HIS OWN ECONOMIC POLICY. THAT BEING SAID, CLINTON PRESIDED OVER THE GLOBALIZATION MOMENT AND THAT IS ONE OF THE THINGS THAT BROUGHT DONALD TRUMP TO POWER. >> David: AND WE HAVE A BIG NIGHT AHEAD FOR GOVERNOR WALZ AS WELL. WHY TONIGHT TO PAIR A BILL CLINTON IN THE FIRST HOUR AND GOVERNOR WALZ IN THE SECOND HOUR? >> THIS IS A DEMOCRATIC PARTY THAT WANTS TO RECLAIM THE NOTION THAT THEY ARE A PARTY OF THE HEARTLAND. I TALKED TO DELEGATES IN MINNESOTA, MICHIGAN, WISCONSIN, THE HOME STATE OF ILLINOIS, AND THE DEMOCRATIC PARTY IS TURNING INTO A CARTOON BY REPUBLICANS CALLED THE PARTY OF COASTAL ELITES. REPUBLICANS SAID THEY MIGHT HAVE EARNED THE MONIKER BUT THEY SEE IN TIM WALZ THE MIDWESTERN GUY AND IN ARKANSAS GOVERNOR BILL CLINTON THE NOTION THAT THEY LIKE A LOT OF NEIGHBORS IN THE STATES ARE DEMOCRATS AND THEY SEE TIM WALZ CANDIDACY AS A INVITATION TO THE FORGOTTEN VOTERS TO COME BACK TO THE DEMOCRATIC PARTY. >> David: TERRY MORAN ON THE FLOOR, LET'S LOOK AT THE STAGE FOR FORMER PRESIDENT BILL CLINTON 78 YEARS OLD. AND WE HEARD HIS WIFE SPEAK EARLIER THIS WEEK. HILLARY CLINTON, TALKING ABOUT THE GLASS CEILING, THE PUSH WE SAW ON THE OTHER SIDE OF THE CEILING. SHE SAID KAMALA HARRIS RAISING HER HAND AND TAKING THE OVAL OFFICE. TONIGHT, HER HUSBAND, THE FORMER PRESIDENT WILL MAKE THE CASE FOR KAMALA HARRIS AND GOVERNOR WALZ. HE'S EXPECTED TO SPEAK ABOUT THE ECONOMY, THE OTHER ISSUES, AND REPORTING AT THE TOP HE'S BEEN WORKING ON HIS SPEECH JUST AS HE DID BACK IN THE DAY RIGHT UP UNTIL THE LAST MINUTE. LET'S LISTEN. ♪ ♪ >> THANK YOU. THANK YOU. WHOA. [CHEERS AND APPLAUSE] LET ME ASK YOU A THING. AFTER THE LAST TWO DAYS, AREN'T YOU PROUD TO BE A DEMOCRAT? [CHEERS AND APPLAUSE] AND I AM VERY GRATEFUL TO THE REPUBLICANS AND INDEPENDENTS THAT HAVE JOINED US ON THE STAGE. AND I HOPE THEY FEEL BETTER ABOUT IT NOW. BECAUSE I'VE SEEN ALL THESE THINGS THAT EVEN I HAVE TO BE REMINDED OF FROM TIME TO TIME. I LOVE SEEING THE OBAMA'S HERE, I LOVE SEEING CLINTON AND BIDEN. AND I THOUGHT HILLARY GAVE A GREAT SPEECH TOO. [CHEERS AND APPLAUSE] I LOVE -- I LOVE SEEING ALL THESE YOUNG LEADERS, MUCH OF THEM ARE COMING UP AFTER ME. THEY LOOK BETTER, THEY SOUND BETTER, AND THEY'LL BE EXCITING. I DO WANT TO SAY ONE WORD ABOUT PRESIDENT BIDEN. REMEMBER, HE HAD AN IMPROBABLE TURN THAT MADE HIM PRESIDENT. AND WE WERE IN THE MIDDLE OF A PANDEMIC AND AN ECONOMIC CRASH. HE HEALED OUR SICK AND PUT THE REST OF US BACK TO WORK. [CHEERS AND APPLAUSE] AND HE STRENGTHENS OUR ALLIANCES FOR PEACE AND SECURITY, HE STOOD UP FOR UKRAINE, HE'S TRYING DESPERATELY TO GET A CEASE-FIRE IN THE MIDDLE EAST. AND THEN HE DID SOMETHING THAT'S REALLY HARD FOR A POLITICIAN TO DO. HE VOLUNTARILY GAVE UP POLITICAL POWER. [APPLAUSE] AND GEORGE WASHINGTON KNEW THAT AND HE DID IT, AND HE SET THE STANDARD FOR 32 TERMS BEFORE IT WAS MANDATORY. AND HELD HIS LEGACY AND IT WILL ENHANCE JOE BIDEN'S LEGACY. [CHEERS AND APPLAUSE] AND IT'S A STARK CONTRAST TO WHAT GOES ON IN THE OTHER PARTY. SO I WANT TO THANK HIM FOR HIS COURAGE, COMPASSION, HIS CLASS. HIS SERVICE, HIS SACRIFICE. [CHEERS AND APPLAUSE] JOE BIDEN -- -- THANK YOU. [CHANTING "THANK YOU, JOE"] HE KEPT THE FAITH AND THE FACT THAT A LOT OF THE REST OF US. I AM TOO OLD TO DAYS AGO I TURNED 78, THE OLDEST MAN IN MY FAMILY IN THIS GENERATION. AND THE ONLY PERSONAL VANITY I WANT TO US OR IT IS I'M STILL YOUNGER THAN DONALD TRUMP. [CHEERS AND APPLAUSE] LAST NIGHT, LAST NIGHT AND WHAT I THOUGHT WAS A VERY MOVING SERIES OF EPISODES, WE NOMINATED KAMALA HARRIS AND TIM WALZ. AND JUST THINK ABOUT THAT. TWO LEADERS WITH ALL-AMERICAN BUT STILL IMPROBABLE LIFE STORIES. IT CAN ONLY HAPPEN HERE, THEIR CAREERS AFTER ALL STARTED IN COMMUNITY COURT ROOMS AND CLASSROOMS. TWO LEADERS WHO SPENT A LIFETIME GETTING THE GOOD JOB DONE. NOW, ONE OF THE THINGS THAT I'VE NOTICED OVER MY INCREASINGLY LONG LIFE IS THAT A PRESIDENTIAL ELECTION IS UNIQUE IN SEVERAL WAYS. FIRST OF ALL, IT'S THE GREATEST JOB INTERVIEW AND THE GREATEST JOB IN THE WORLD. SECONDLY, THE CONSTITUTION SAYS WE THE PEOPLE GET TO DO THE HIRING. AND THE THIRD THING IS THAT EVERY FOUR YEARS WE GET TO CHANGE THE REQUIREMENTS FOR THE JOB. SO HERE'S WHAT I'M THINKING. AS I TRY TO APPLY THIS IN EVERY ELECTION. WILL THIS PRESIDENT TAKE US BACKWARD OR FORWARD? WILL THIS PRESIDENT GIVE OUR KIDS A BRIGHTER FUTURE? DEPENDS. WILL THIS PRESIDENT BRING US TOGETHER OR TEAR US APART? WILL BE PRESIDENT INCREASE THE PEACE, SECURITY, AND STABILITY, AND FREEDOM THAT WE ENJOY, AND EXTENDED TO OTHERS AS WE CAN? WE THE PEOPLE, WE HAVE TO MAKE A DECISION ABOUT THESE KINDS OF QUESTIONS. AND EVERY FOUR YEARS, IT'S A LITTLE BIT DIFFERENT BECAUSE THE PEOPLE THAT COME UP AS CANDIDATES AND THEY SAY AS THEY ARE SAYING NOW, HERE ARE OUR PROBLEMS. SOLVE THEM. HERE ARE OUR OPPORTUNITIES. SEES THEM. HERE ARE OUR FEARS. HERE ARE OUR DREAMS. HELP THEM COME TRUE. A PRESIDENT CAN ANSWER THAT CALL BY SAYING I'LL DO MY PART, BUT YOU HAVE TO HELP ME, WE HAVE TO WORK TOGETHER. OR YOU CAN DODGE WHAT NEEDS TO BE DONE BY DIVIDING, DISTRACTING, AND DIVERTING US. SO IN 2024, WE'VE GOT A PRETTY CLEAR CHOICE IT SEEMS TO ME. KAMALA HARRIS FOR THE PEOPLE. [CHEERS AND APPLAUSE] AND THE OTHER GUY WHO'S PROVED EVEN MORE THAN THE FIRST GO AROUND THAT HE'S ABOUT ME, MYSELF, AND I. I KNOW WHICH ONE I LIKE BETTER FOR OUR COUNTRY. [CHEERS AND APPLAUSE] KAMALA HARRIS WILL WORK TO SOLVE OUR PROBLEMS, SEIZE OUR OPPORTUNITIES, EASE OUR FEARS, AND MAKE SURE EVERY SINGLE AMERICAN, HOWEVER THEY VOTE, HAS A CHANCE TO CHASE THEIR DREAMS. YOU KNOW -- [APPLAUSE] WHEN SHE WAS YOUNG, SHE WORKED AT McDONALD'S. AND SHE GREETED EVERY PERSON WITH THAT THOUSAND WATT SMILE AND SAID HOW CAN I HELP YOU? NOW SHE IS AT THE PINNACLE OF POWER AND SHE IS STILL ASKING HOW CAN I HELP YOU? [CHEERS AND APPLAUSE] I WILL BE SO HAPPY WHEN SHE ACTUALLY ENTERS THE WHITE HOUSE AS PRESIDENT BECAUSE SHE WILL BREAK MY RECORD AS THE PRESIDENT WHO SPENT THE MOST TIME AT McDONALD'S. [CHEERS AND APPLAUSE] NOW, BUT WE'VE GOT AN ELECTION TO WIN. AND REMEMBER, WE'VE GOT A GUY THAT'S PRETTY GOOD AT WHAT HE DOES. DONALD TRUMP HAS BEEN A PARAGON OF CONSISTENCY. HE STILL DIVIDING, HE STILL BLAMING, HE IS STILL BELITTLING OTHER PEOPLE. HE CREATES CHAOS AND THEN HE SORT OF CURATES IT. AS IF IT WERE PRECIOUS ARTS. LET ME SAY NOT A SINGLE DAY GOES BY EVEN THOUGH I'VE BEEN GONE FOR WELL OVER 24 YEARS FROM THE WHITE HOUSE, NOT A DAY GOES BY THAT I DON'T THINK THE LORD FOR THE CHANCE I HAD TO SERVE AND WHAT IT MEANT. AND ONE OF THE REASONS -- THANK YOU. WAIT, WAIT, WAIT. A. [CHEERS AND APPLAUSE] ONE OF THE REASONS ONE OF THE REASONS I LOVE THE JOB SO MUCH IS THAT IN THE TOUGHEST TIMES, EVEN ON THE DARKEST DAYS, IF YOU TRY HARD ENOUGH, THERE WAS ALWAYS SOMETHING GOOD YOU COULD DO FOR SOMEONE ELSE. NOW, SOME DAYS THAT'S NOT EASY TO DO. YOU HAVE TO DEAL WITH ALL THESE EMERGENCIES, THERE SOMETHING GOING HERE OR ANOTHER. BUT KAMALA HARRIS IS THE ONLY CANDIDATE IN THIS RACE WHO HAS THE VISION, THE EXPERIENCE, THE TEMPERAMENT, THE WILL, AND YES, THE SHEER JOY TO GET SOMETHING DONE. I MEAN, WHAT DOES HER OPPONENT DO WITH HIS VOICE? HE MOSTLY TALKS ABOUT HIMSELF. SO THE NEXT TIME YOU HEAR HIM, DON'T COUNT THE LIES. COUNT THE I'S. COUNT THE I'S. HIS VENDETTAS, HIS VENGEANCE, HIS COMPLAINTS, HIS CONSP CONSPIRACIES. HE'S LIKE ONE OF THOSE TENORS OPENING UP BEFORE HE WALKS OUT ON STAGE BY SAYING ME, ME, ME, ME. WHEN KAMALA HARRIS IS PRESIDENT, EVERY DAY WILL BEGIN WITH YOU, YOU WILL COME TO YOU YOU, YOU, YOU, YOU WILL. [CHEERS AND APPLAUSE] SO WE HAVE TO ASK OURSELVES A QUESTION. DO YOU WANT TO BUILD A STRONGER ECONOMY FROM THE BOTTOM UP IN THE MIDDLE OUT OR DO YOU WANT TO SPEND THE NEXT FOUR YEARS TALKING ABOUT CROWD SIZES? [LAUGHTER] YOU'RE GOING TO HAVE A HARD TIME BELIEVING THIS AND SO HELP ME I TRIPLE CHECKED. SINCE THE END OF THE COLD WAR IN 1989, AMERICA HAS CREATED ABOUT 51 MILLION NEW JOBS. [CHEERS AND APPLAUSE] I SWEAR I CHECKED IT THIS THREE TIMES. EVEN I COULD NOT BELIEVE IT. WHAT'S THE SCORE? DEMOCRATS 50, REPUBLICANS 1. [CHEERS AND APPLAUSE] I'M GLAD THAT WE GOT A CHAMPIONSHIP WINNING COACH ON OUR TEAM. [CHEERS AND APPLAUSE] BUT EVEN THE MOST LIMITED OF US AND WHAT WE KNOW ABOUT FOOTBALL OR ANY OTHER SPORT KNOWS THAT IF YOU'RE GOT 50 AND THE OTHER SIDE HAS 1, YOU ARE AHEAD. WHAT ABOUT AFFORDABLE HOUSING, IT'S A TERRIBLE PROBLEM IN AMERICA. AND AFFORDABLE HEALTH CARE. THAT'S WHY THE DEMOCRATS PUT A LIMIT ON MONTHLY PAYMENTS FOR INSULIN AND A $2,000 A YEAR OUT-OF-POCKET MINIMUM. THEY'RE TRYING TO COVER MORE DRUGS BY BARGAINING FOR PRICES. WE NEED MORE FINANCING FOR SMALL BUSINESSES. WE NEED STILL TO STRENGTHEN OUR ALLIANCES. I ALMOST CROAKED IN THE FIRST DEBATE OF THIS ELECTION SEASON WHEN PRESIDENT TRUMP SAID NOBODY RESPECTED AMERICA ANYMORE LIKE WHEN HE WAS PRESIDENT. WAIT, WAIT, AND WITH A STRAIGHT FACE. LOOK, YOU GOT TO GIVE IT, HE'S A GOOD ACTOR WITH A STRAIGHT FACE, HE CITED AS EVIDENCE OF THEIR RESPECT THAT EXISTED FOR US WHEN HE WAS THERE. THE PRESIDENTS OF NORTH KOREA AND RUSSIA. I'D RATHER HAVE THE PEOPLE WHO RESPECT US NOW. [CHEERS AND APPLAUSE] AND ONE OF THE THINGS -- ONE OF THE THINGS IS WHEN YOU SEND A SIGNAL TO THE OTHER COUNTRIES, YOU WANT THEM TO KNOW WHETHER THEY AGREE WITH YOU OR NOT, AT LEAST THAT YOU'RE ON THE LEVEL. AND HERE'S WHERE YOU ARE AND WHAT YOU BELIEVE. WHAT ARE THEY SUPPOSED TO MAKE OF THE ENDLESS TRIBUTES TO THE LATE GREAT HANNIBAL LECTOR? I MEAN, PRESIDENT OBAMA ONCE GAVE ME THE GREAT HONOR OF SAYING I WAS THE EXPLAINER IN CHIEF. FOLKS, I THOUGHT ABOUT IT, I DON'T KNOW WHAT TO SAY. [CHEERS AND APPLAUSE] LIKE HAKEEM JEFFRIES, I TOO WANT AN AMERICA THAT'S MORE JOYFUL. MORE INCLUSIVE, MORE FUTURE FOCUSED. JUST THINK WHAT A BURDEN IT HAS BEEN ON US TO GET UP DAY AFTER DAY AFTER DAY AFTER DAY BURIED IN MEANINGLESS HOT RHETORIC WHEN THERE ARE SO MANY OPPORTUNITIES OUT THERE, SO MANY PROBLEMS THAT NEED TO BE SOLVED. I WANT THAT. AND THAT'S THE AMERICA KAMALA HARRIS WILL LEAD. [CHEERS AND APPLAUSE] SHE'S ALREADY MADE HER FIRST PRESIDENTIAL DECISION AND SHE KNOCKED IT OUT OF THE PARK WHEN SHE ASKED GOVERNOR TIM WALZ TO BE HER HONORABLE VICE PRESIDENT. [CHEERS AND APPLAUSE] AS THEY USED TO SAY WHEN I WAS A YOUNG MAN GROWING UP IN ARKANSAS, YOU DO NOT HAVE TO BE ALL BROKE OUT WITH BRILLIANCE. YOU JUST LOOK AT TIM WALZ, LISTEN TO HIM, FOLLOW HIS RECORD AS A TEACHER, AS A COACH, IN THE NATIONAL GUARD. AS A CONGRESSMAN WHERE HE WAS THE ONLY DEMOCRAT SAVE ONE WHO IS ELECTED IN THE DISTRICT IN MORE THAN 100 YEARS. AND HE STAYED A LONG TIME. AND THEN HE BECAME A GREAT GOVERNOR. AND BY ALL ACCOUNTS, HE WAS A CRACK SHOT WHO HAD THE COURAGE AMONG HIS RURAL CONSTITUENTS TO SAY WE DO NOT NEED THESE ASSAULT WEAPONS AVAILABLE TO PEOPLE WHO CAN KILL OUR KIDS IN SCHOOL. SO OUR FIRST DECISION, KAMALA HARRIS CONFRONTS AN INTERESTING DILEMMA. WE ARE GOING TO WALK OUT OF HERE FEELING PRETTY GOOD. WE'VE GOT ENERGY, WE ARE HAPPY, WE FEEL LIKE A LOAD IS OFF OUR SHOULDERS. AND WE KNOW WE ARE BEING ASKED TO FIGHT THE SAME FIGHT THAT THE FORCES OF PROGRESS HAD TO FIGHT FOR 250 YEARS. AND THE FACE OF STIFF AND OFTEN VIOLENT OPPOSITION, WE HAVE TO FIND A WAY TO GO FORWARD TOGETHER. WHERE WE COME OF THE PEOPLE, MAKE OUR UNION MORE PERFECT. SO, THAT'S A GOOD THING. HOW CAN WE POSSIBLY LOSE KAMALA HARRIS HAS FOUGHT FOR KIDS HER WHOLE LIFE AND WE ARE LEFT OUT. SHE'S TAKEN ON GANGS TRAFFICKING ACROSS THE BORDER. SHE'S FOUGHT TO PROTECT THE RIGHTS OF HOMEOWNERS. SHE'S BEEN OUR LEADER IN THE FIGHT FOR REPRODUCTIVE FREEDOMS AND WE KNOW A MAJORITY OF THE AMERICAN PEOPLE ARE WITH US ON THAT. AND SHE HAS GAINED AN INVALUABLE AMOUNT OF EXPERIENCE AS VICE PRESIDENT ADVANCING OUR VALUES AND INTERESTS AROUND THE WORLD. SHE'S ALREADY SAID SHE'S GOING TO WORK REALLY HARD TO MAKE SURE THAT NO AMERICAN WORKING FULL TIME LIVES IN POVERTY OR HAS TO WORRY ABOUT THEIR CHILDREN LIVING IN POVERTY. SHE SAID THAT WE'VE GOT TO MAKE PHONE OWNERSHIP AND ACHIEVABLE DREAM FOR EVERYONE, NOT JUST THE PRIVILEGED. SHE SAID AND IT'S MEANT A LOT TO ME, THAT SHE WOULD PROTECT EVERYBODY'S RIGHT TO VOTE WHETHER OR NOT THEY VOTED FOR HER. THEY ARE CITIZENS AND THEY DESERVE THE RIGHT TO VOTE. THE OTHER DAY, HER OPPONENT IMPLIED HIS PEOPLE VOTED ONE MORE TIME, THEY'D BE ABLE TO RIG IT FROM NOW ON AND THEY WOULDN'T HAVE TO VOTE. YOU THINK THEY'RE KIDDING. BUT I KNOW A LOT OF THESE FOLKS. MOST OF THEM ARE REALLY GOOD PEOPLE. BUT SOME OF THEM THINK THAT THEY ARE BOUND TO DOMINATE AMERICA POLITICALLY, ECONOMICALLY, AND SOCIALLY, AND THEY HAVE TO USE POLITICS TO DO IT AND THEY SHOULD BREAK THE SYSTEM. I DON'T BELIEVE THAT. AND SO HERE'S WHAT I WANT TO TELL YOU. WE HAVE SEEN MORE THAN ONE ELECTION SLIP AWAY FROM US. WHEN WE THOUGHT IT COULDN'T HAPPEN, WHEN PEOPLE GOT DISTRACTED BY PHONY ISSUES. THIS IS A BRUTAL, TOUGH BUSINESS. I WANT YOU TO BE HAPPY. ONE OF THE REASONS THAT PRESIDENT TO BE HARRIS IS DOING SO WELL IS THAT WE ARE ALSO HAPPY. BUT YOU SHOULD NEVER UNDERESTIMATE YOUR ADVERSARIES. AND THESE PEOPLE ARE REALLY GOOD AT DISTRACTING US. AND TRIGGERING DOUBT, AND TRIGGERING BUYER'S REMORSE. AS OBAMA SAID SO ELOQUENTLY LAST NIGHT, THEY ARE HUMAN, YOU KNOW? THEY ARE BOUND TO MAKE A MISTAKE NOW AND THEN. WE'VE GOT TO BE TOUGH. AND SO AS SOMEBODY WHO SPENT A LOT OF TIME IN SMALL TOWNS AND RURAL AREAS IN NEW YORK AND ARKANSAS AND OTHER PLACES -- [CHEERS AND APPLAUSE] I URGE YOU TO TALK TO ALL YOUR NEIGHBORS. I URGE YOU TO MEET PEOPLE WHERE THEY ARE. I URGE YOU NOT TO DEMEAN THEM, BUT NOT TO PRETEND YOU DON'T DISAGREE WITH THEM IF YOU DO. TREAT THEM WITH RESPECT, JUST THE WAY YOU'D LIKE THEM TO TREAT YOU. AS FOR -- ASK FOR THEIR HELP AD FOLLOW OUR LEADER. ASK THEM HOW CAN I HELP YOU? WE DEMOCRATS RIGHT NOW HAVE A LOT OF HAY IN THE BARN. WE'VE GOT MASSIVE ACHIEVEMENTS, MASSIVE ADVANCES. BUT THERE IS STILL A LOT OF SLIPS BETWEEN TODAY AND ELECTION DAY THAT WE HAVE TO NAVIGATE. AND SO, I WANT TO SAY THIS FROM THE BOTTOM OF MY HEART. I HAVE NO IDEA HOW MANY MORE OF THESE WILL BE ABLE TO COME TO. I STARTED IN '76 AND I'VE BEEN TO EVERY SINGLE ONE SINCE. NO, '72. BUT HERE'S WHAT I WANT YOU TO KNOW. IF YOU VOTE FOR THIS TEAM, IF YOU CAN GET THEM ELECTED, IF YOU LET THEM BRING IN THIS BREATH OF FRESH AIR, YOU WILL BE PROUD OF IT FOR THE REST OF YOUR LIFE. YOUR CHILDREN WILL BE PROUD OF IT, YOUR GRANDCHILDREN WILL BE PROUD OF IT. [CHEERS AND APPLAUSE] TAKE IT FROM A MAN WHO ONCE HAD THE HONOR TO BE CALLED IN THIS CONVENTION THE MAN FROM HOPE, WE NEED -- WE NEED KAMALA HARRIS THE PRESIDENT OF JOY TO LEAD US. SO, I'LL BE DOING MY PART AND YOU DO YOURS. I'D SAY WE'RE MAKING A REAL JOYFUL NOISE. GOD BLESS YOU AND GOD BLESS AMERICA. [CHEERS AND APPLAUSE] >> David: FORMER PRESIDENT BILL CLINTON ON THE STAGE. THAT THERE HIS WIFE AND SECRETARY OF STATE HILLARY CLINTON SMILING ALONG, NODDING ALONG WITH THE SPEECH. AT TIMES YOU COULD HEAR THE PIN DROP. >> HE'S GOT THAT GIFT, AND ALTHOUGH IT'S REMINDED ME A LITTLE BIT OF A GREAT BASKETBALL PICTURE. NOLAN RYAN'S TOWARD THE END OF HIS CAREER YOU COULD SEE THE TOLL THE TIME HAD TAKEN BUT IT WAS STILL THERE. HE STILL GOT IT AND THE FEELING IN THIS ARENA WAS OVERWHELMINGLY ONE OF AFFECTION. AND ATTENTION. HE HELD THEIR ATTENTION JUST LIKE THE EXPLAINER IN CHIEF HAS ALWAYS DONE. >> David: DON'T STOP THINKING ABOUT TOMORROW, FAMILIAR CAMPAIGN SONG FROM THE '92 ELECTION. >> FLEETWOOD MAC A LITTLE NOSTALGIA IN THE HALL. A BILL CLINTON BEEN AT EVERY CONVENTION AS WE SAID SINCE 1976. >> David: AND THEN HE SAID IN A POT TO BE 72 FOR A SECOND. >> WE HAVE TO CHECK THAT ONE. >> David: THOSE ARE HIS WORDS, BY THE WAY. RACHEL SCOTT DOWN ON THE FLOOR FOR US AND FORMER SPEAKER OF THE HOUSE NANCY PELOSI AS WE'VE BEEN SAYING IN OUR COVERAGE HAS PLAYED A ROLE BEHIND THE SCENES AND IN FRONT OF THE CAMERA IN THE VERY PIVOTAL, CRITICAL FOR AND A HALF WEEKS IN THIS COUNTRY, PARTICULARLY ON THE DEMOCRATIC SIDE AS FAR AS TOP OF THE TICKET HERE AT THE CONVENTION. >> UP ON CAPITOL HILL BEFORE PRESIDENT BIDEN DROPPED OUT OF THE RACE, SOMEBODY DEMOCRATS TOLD ME THEY BELIEVE THAT NANCY PELOSI WAS REALLY ONE OF THE ONLY FEW IN THE PARTY THAT COULD COMPLETELY CONVINCE PRESIDENT BIDEN TO STEP ASIDE. YOU KNOW THAT SHE RAISED CONCERNS PRIVATELY ABOUT THE FUTURE OF HIS RACE AND SHE HAS BEEN FRONT ROW AND SITTING IN THERE WHEN PRESIDENT BIDEN DELIVERED THE ADDRESS TONIGHT. SHE'S GOING TO BE ADDRESSING THE STAGE AND THE CONVENTION AS WELL. EXPECT HER TO LEAN INTO THE STAKES. >> David: LET'S WATCH FORMER SPEAKER OF THE HOUSE NANCY PELOSI NOW 84 YEARS OLD STILL A POWERFUL FORCE FROM THE DEMOCRATIC PARTY. LET'S LISTEN. >> HELLO, CALIFORNIA! HELLO, DEMOCRATS! ON JANUARY 20TH, 2021 WITH THE INAUGURATION OF JOE BIDEN AND KAMALA HARRIS, WE ESTABLISHED ONE OF THE MOST SUCCESSFUL PRESIDENCY OF MODERN TIMES. WE QUICKLY PROVE THAT DEMOCRATS DELIVER. BILLIONS OF JOBS, STRONGER INFRASTRUCTURE AND RURAL BROADBAND, BIDEN TAX CREDIT RESCUING HUMAN PENSIONS, HONORING OUR VETERANS, BOLD CLIMATE ACTION, LOWERING THE COST OF PRESCRIPTION DRUGS ALL THINGS TO PRESIDENT BIDEN'S PATRIOTIC VISION OF A FAIRER AMERICA, DOING SO WITH LIBERTY AND JUSTICE FOR ALL. THANK YOU, JOE. AND I KNOW THAT VICE PRESIDENT HARRIS IS READY TO TAKE US TO NEW HEIGHTS. I'VE KNOWN KAMALA HARRIS FOR DECADES. PERSONALLY, I KNOW HER A PERSON OF DEEP FAITH WHICH IS REFLECTED IN HER COMMUNITY, CARE, AND SERVICE. OFFICIALLY, SHE'S A LEADER OF STRENGTH AND WISDOM AND ELOQUENCE ON POLICY. MOST RECENTLY DEMONSTRATED FIGHTING FOR A WOMAN'S RIGHT TO CHOOSE. POLITICALLY, SHE IS ASTUTE AND STRATEGIC IN WINNING DIFFICULT ELECTIONS, QUICKLY SECURING THE NOMINATION WITH DIGNITY AND GRACE AND CHOOSING TIM WALZ AS OUR VICE PRESIDENT. I HAD THE HONOR OF SERVING WITH TIM FOR 12 YEARS IN CONGRESS. HE UNITED DEMOCRATS, REPUBLICANS, INDEPENDENTS TO TURN IN RED DISTRICT BLUE. HE SHOWED COURAGE WHEN HE CAME TO CONGRESS AND VOTED FOR THE AFFORDABLE CARE ACT, MEETING THE NEEDS OF HIS CONSTITUENTS DESPITE REPUBLICANS LIES AND MISREPRESENTATION. WHEN HE WENT HOME, WON THE ELECTION, HE RETURNED TO CONGRESS, HE FOUGHT FOR OUR AMERICANS HEROES AS THE DEMOCRATIC LEADER OF THE VETERANS AFFAIRS COMMITTEE. THANK YOU, TIM. [CHEERS AND APPLAUSE] JANUARY 6TH WAS A PERILOUS MOMENT OF OUR DEMOCRACY. NEVER BEFORE HAD A PRESIDENT OF UNITED STATES SO BRAZENLY ASSAULTED THE BEDROCK OF OUR DEMOCRACY, SO LEGALLY EMBRACED POLITICAL VIOLENCE, SO WILLFULLY BETRAYED HIS OATH OF OFFICE. LET US NOT FORGET WHO ASSAULTED DEMOCRACY ON JANUARY 6TH. HE DID! BUT LET US NOT FORGET WHO SAVED DEMOCRACY THAT DAY. WE DID. [CHEERS AND APPLAUSE] AND THANK GOD WE HAD A DEMOCRATIC HOUSE OF REPRESENTATIVES THEN. [CHEERS AND APPLAUSE] HE RETURNED TO THAT CAPITAL OF THE VERY SAME NIGHT, WE INSISTED ON CERTIFYING THE ELECTION RESULTS FROM THE FLOOR, TO THE HOUSE AND THE SENATE. AND WE DEMONSTRATED TO AMERICA AND TO THE WORLD THAT AMERICAN DEMOCRACY PREVAILED. THE PARABLE OF JANUARY 6TH REMINDS US THAT OUR DEMOCRACY IS ONLY AS STRONG AS THE COURAGE AND COMMITMENT OF THOSE ENTRUSTED WITH ITS CARE. AND WE MUST CHOOSE LEADERS WHO BELIEVE IN FREE AND FAIR ELECTIONS, WHO RESPECT THE PEACEFUL TRANSFER OF POWER. THE CHOICE COULD NOT BE CLEARER. THOSE LEADERS ARE VICE PRESIDENT HARRIS AND GOVERNOR WALZ. [CHEERS AND APPLAUSE] WHEN THE SUN ROSE ON JANUARY 7TH, AS OUR NATIONAL ANTHEM DECLARES, WE GAVE PROOF THROUGH THE NIGHT THAT OUR FLAG WAS STILL THERE. NOW IN THIS ELECTION, WE ARE CALLED UPON TO DO THE SAME. TO STAND TOGETHER, TO REJECT AUTOCRACY, TO CHOOSE DEMOCRACY. AND WE WILL DO SO BY ELECTING A DEMOCRATIC HOUSE WITH HAKEEM JEFFRIES AS SPEAKER OF THE HOUSE. ELECTING A DEMOCRATIC SENATE, ELECTING TIM WALZ AS A VICE PRESIDENT OF THE UNITED STATES. [CHEERS AND APPLAUSE] AND ELECTING KAMALA HARRIS AS THE PRESIDENT OF THE UNITED STATES! ONWARD TO VICTORY! [CHEERS AND APPLAUSE] >> David: THE FORMER SPEAKER OF THE HOUSE NANCY PELOSI SPEAKING TO THE CONVENTION HALL. THERE HAS BEEN A LOT OF REPORTING ON ABC AND ELSEWHERE THESE PAST FEW WEEKS ABOUT APPROVAL AND GETTING PRESIDENT BIDEN TO THINK CAREFULLY ABOUT WHETHER OR NOT HE WANTED TO STAY IN THIS RACE. PUBLICLY GOING ON CABLE NEWS AND SAYING IF AND WHEN HE MAKES THE DECISION, WE WILL STAND WITH HIM. WE ARE NOW GOING TO HEAR FROM PEOPLE CLOSE TO KAMALA HARRIS AND DOUG EMHOFF. WE BEGIN WITH HER GODSON. >> IT'S ACTUALLY HIS DAD REPRESENTED BY ALEXANDER HUDLIN, KAMALA HARRIS' BEST FRIEND. SHE SIMPLY SAID DON'T GOOGLE HIM BEFORE YOU MEET. >> SHE WILL LIFT US UP. IN 2016, SHE CELEBRATED THE SENATE WIN. I WAS ONLY 9 BUT I KNEW ENOUGH TO BE CONCERNED. AUNTIE SAID DO YOU KNOW WHAT SUPERHEROES DO? THEY FIGHT BACK. AND WE WILL TOO. >> SHE WILL MAKE TIME FOR WHAT MATTERS. YOU KNOW, NO ONE IS BUSIER THAN MY AUNTIE, BUT SHE ALWAYS MAKES TIME FOR FAMILY. FOR A MOMENT SO SIMPLE AS COOKING AND SHARING A MEAL TO EXCHANGING STORIES AND JOKES. AUNTIE TAUGHT ME ABOUT BEING PRESENT IN WHAT'S IMPORTANT AND I KNOW THAT'S HOW SHE WILL LEAD. >> SHE WILL TREAT EVERYONE WITH RESPECT, EVEN AS A KID AUNTIE MADE ME FEEL THAT I WAS SEEN, THAT MY WORDS ARE IMPORTANT, THAT I AM IMPORTANT AND LOVED. I KNOW SHE WILL VALUE OTHERS' PERSPECTIVES NO MATTER THEIR AGE OR BACKGROUND. >> AUNTIE, WE LOVE YOU. >> WE ARE SO PROUD OF YOU. >> AND MOST IMPORTANTLY, YOU'RE A BALLER. AND AS YOU'D SAY, LET'S WIN THIS THING! >> LETS WIN THIS THING! >> THAT'S, HARASSES GODSON AND IN THE MIDDLE AND RIGHT HER NIECE AND NEPHEW, DOUG EMHOFF OBVIOUSLY THE SECOND GENTLEMAN.

BILL CFORMER PRESIDENT BILL CLIN THE FIRST HOUR, ALL EYES ON OPRAH WINFREY AND THEN ON HIS RUNNING MATE WHO AMERICA REALLY DID NOT KNOW ON NATIONAL STAGE UNTIL JUST 15 DAYS AGO, MARTHA VR. >> THEY KNEW VERY LITTLE ABOUT TIM WALZ EXCEPT FOR IN MINNESOTA WHERE THEY SEEM TO ADORE HIM. HE'S ALL COACH, THE PERSONALITY OF A COACH, YOU SAW HIM LAST NIGHT AT THE RALLY. HE RAISES HIS HANDS, RUNS OUT. HE'S ALSO NEVER USED A TELEPROMPTER WHICH WILL BE INTERESTING FOR HIS SPEECH TONIGHT BECAUSE HE WANTS TO CONNECT WITH THAT AUDIENCE. HE WANTS TO SHOW WHO HE REALLY IS. AND HIS BACKGROUND IS REALLY QUITE EXTRAORDINARY. THE NATIONAL GUARD AS YOU SAID FOR 24 YEARS. THERE HAS BEEN SOME CONTROVERSY ABOUT THAT. BUT IT CONGRESSMAN, BUT REALLY. I WAS ON THE FLOOR WITH THE MINNESOTA DELEGATION, THEY ARE READY TO FIGHT, READY TO SAY SKOL. >> David: FOR THE COACH, AND ON THE TELEPROMPTER, WHEN IT WAS DOWN TO TIM WALZ, JOSH SHAPIRO, PENNSYLVANIA. WE HAD THE KENTUCKY GOVERNOR ANDY BESHEAR IN THE RUNNING, MARK KELLY ARIZONA. HE DIDN'T KNOW, BUT YOU SAID THEY DID SOME TELEVISING PRACTICE. >> DURING THE VETTING PROCESS, THERE IS ONE THING I HAVE TO ACKNOWLEDGE, I HAVE NO EXPERIENCE SPEAKING FROM A TELEPROMPTER WHICH IS OBVIOUSLY YOU HAVE TO DO IF YOU'RE A RUNNING MATE. THAT WAS DURING THE PROCESS OF GOING THROUGH THE VETTING. HIS OWN STAFF AND ONE OF THE TOP AIDES TOLD ME THIS. THIS KIND OF SECRETLY BROUGHT INTO THE GOVERNOR'S MANSION, THE GOVERNOR'S RESIDENCE TELEPROMPTERS AND LOADED IN SOME OLD SPEECHES HE HAD GIVEN TO SEE HOW YOU CAN GET THE HANDLE OF READING FROM THE TELEPROMPTER BECAUSE BY THE WAY, IT IS NOT EASY. IT'S ACTUALLY A VERY DIFFICULT THING TO DO UNLESS YOU'VE HAD PRACTICE. AND REMEMBER JOHN McCAIN WHEN HE WAS THE CANDIDATE IN 2008 HE HAD A VERY TERRIBLE TIME READING FROM A TELEPROMPTER. WALZ HAD SOME PRACTICE. THIS IS A GUY WHO DOESN'T OWN A CAR, DOESN'T OWN A HOUSE, AND HAD NEVER REALLY SPOKEN FROM A TELEPROMPTER BEFORE JUST A COUPLE WEEKS AGO. >> David: LINSEY DAVIS, WE HEARD FORMER PRESIDENT BARACK OBAMA TALKING ABOUT TIM WALZ. BARACK OBAMA HAD HELPED ADVISE, HARRIS ON THE SELECTION. HE SAID I LOVE THIS GUY, THAT'S WITH THE FORMER PRESIDENT SAID LAST NIGHT. HE ALSO SAID ABOUT THE FLANNEL SHIRTS, I THINK THOSE ARE REAL, HE'S DONE SOME REAL LIVING IN THOSE. >> THEY'VE BEEN THROUGH SOME THINGS IS WHAT HE SAID. BARACK OBAMA ALSO SAID WHATEVER YOU NEED ME TO DO, ANYWHERE, EVERYWHERE, I WILL GO. WHAT IS STRIKING JUST AS WE'RE GETTING TO KNOW WHO TIM WALZ'S, AMERICANS EVEN THOUGH SHE'S BEEN VICE PRESIDENT FOR THREE AND A HALF YEARS, PART OF WHAT THE CONVENTION IS ABOUT IS GETTING TO KNOW STILL WHO KAMALA HARRIS IS WHICH IS WHO WE'VE BEEN SEEING. TONY ASKED HER BROTHER IN LAW WHO'S BEEN WORKING ON THE STAGE JUST NOW AND SHE AS DOUG EMHOFF TALKED ABOUT THIS BIG BLENDED FAMILY. NOT NECESSARILY IN THE TRADITIONAL WAY, NOT JUST AS FAR AS THE DIFFERENT GENERATIONS, BUT RACE, GENDER, WE HEARD FROM HER GODSON, HER NIECE AND NEPHEW. EVERYBODY TRYING TO REALLY GIVE HER THAT PERSONAL TOUCH. >> THE CHILDREN SHE'S HELPING TO RAISE WITH DOUG EMHOFF. SHOUTING OUT TO THEIR MOM AND KAMALA HARRIS, THE COPARENT OF THE CHILDREN. IT RACHEL SCOTT ON THE CONVENTION FLOOR. THERE IS FLANNEL SHIRTS ON FULL DISPLAY? >> YOU KNOW, DAVID, EVERY SINGLE STATE TRIES TO BRING SOME SWAGGER WITH THEM AND TAKE A LOOK HERE. WE ARE SEEING SOME FLANNELS HERE AND THAT C CAMEL HATS THEY ARE FIRED UP AND READY TO GO. DOWN HERE ON THE FLOOR THEY ARE ANTICIPATING GOVERNOR TIM WALZ AND A REASON WHY DEMOCRATS COULD HAVE SUCH COMMAND AND APPEAL IS THEY ARE HOPING THEY CAN APPEAL TO THE BIG WESTERN VOTERS, ESPECIALLY ON KEY ISSUES SUCH AS GUN VIOLENCE. IT TIM WALZ WAS ONCE ENDORSED BY THE NRA WHEN HE RAN FOR CONGRESS. HE SAID AFTER THE SHOOTING IT WAS HIS DAUGHTER IMPARTED THAT CONVINCED HIM TO CHANGE HIS POSITION. IT'S MESSAGES LIKE THOSE THAT REALLY RESONATE WITH AMERICANS, DAVID. >> TEN PAST TEN IN THE EAST, FOR THOSE WATCHING "ABC NEWS" LIVE COVERAGE. WE'LL COME BACK DOWN TO THE FLOOR IN A MOMENT, JUST BRING VIEWERS AT HOME UP TO SPEED, EXPECTING TO HEAR FROM SENATOR CATHERINE CORTEZ MASTO. WE EXPECT TO HEAR FROM JOSH SHAPIRO, THE POPULAR GOVERNOR OF PENNSYLVANIA. HE'S ON THE SHORT-LIST FOR A POTENTIAL RUNNING MATE PICKED. OBVIOUSLY WENT TO GOVERNOR WALZ INSTEAD. WE WILL HEAR FROM HIM. AND A MOMENT WE'LL HEAR FROM OPRAH WINFREY WILL TAKE THE STAGE AND THEN GOVERNOR WALZ HIMSELF. AS SOON WE HEAR FROM SENATOR OR TAZ MUSTO, MARY BRUCE COVER THE CAMPAIGN. THROUGHOUT THE VIDEO THEY REVEALED SOMETHING I DID NOT KNOW WHICH WAS THAT KAMALA HARRIS CALLED GOVERNOR WALZ TO TELL HIM THAT HE WAS HER PICK AND HE DIDN'T ANSWER THE PHONE. IT SAID RESTRICTED COLOR, HE WASN'T SURE IF HE SHOULD ANSWER THE CALL. >> I KEEP THINKING AS I'VE BEEN ON THE TRAIL OF THEM, TIM WALZ HAS BEEN THERE ON THE STAGE. HE'S ABOUT TO STAND OUT THERE ALL ALONE ON THE STAGE, BY FAR THE LARGEST AUDIENCE WILL HAVE EVER TALKED TO. AT THE HIGHEST STEAK SPEECH OF HIS LIFE AND IT'S THE FLANNEL SHIRT AUTHENTICITY THEY HOPE WILL SHINE THROUGH. THE SHORT TIME HE'S BEEN OUT THERE ON THE TRAIL WITH HER AND PRIOR TO THAT THEY REALLY HOPE THAT KAMALA HARRIS WILL PICK A RUNNING MATE WHO UNDERSTOOD SMALL-TOWN AMERICA AND UNDERSTOOD THE FLY OVER STATES AND THE ECONOMIC CHALLENGES, THE KITCHEN TABLE ISSUES THAT ARE TOP OF MIND FOR SO MANY AMERICANS. THEY ARE HOPING THE CAMPAIGN BY COMING OUT HERE AND BY BEING COACH WALZ, THAT SO MANY OF THE VOTERS IN THE CRITICAL MUST WIN BATTLEGROUND STATES WILL FEEL THAT HE NOT JUST UNDERSTANDS THEM BUT THEY FEEL A LITTLE BIT LIKE HOME TO THEM. >> David: TO PULL RURAL DEMOCRATS BACK INTO THE VOTE IS LITERALLY A MIDWESTERN DAD. A DAD, COACH, SOCIAL STUDIES TEACHER WHO THEN RAN FOR CONGRESS. A SENATOR FROM KEY BATTLEGROUND OF NEVADA, SENASENATOR CATHERINE CORTEZ MASTO. LET'S LISTEN TO THE SENATOR. >> HELLO, CHICAGO. YOU KNOW, BEFORE I WAS SENATOR, I WAS NEVADA'S ATTORNEY GENERAL. AND THAT'S WHEN I MET KAMALA HARRIS, MY COLLEAGUE. NOW WE BONDED OVER MANY THINGS. AND WORKING TOGETHER, I QUICKLY LEARNS WHAT KIND OF PERSON SHE IS. SHE'S A STRONG LEADER. HERE'S HOW I KNOW. AS AG, WE TOOK ON THE BIG BANKS. AFTER THE FORECLOSURE CRISIS. AND LET ME TELL YOU, KAMALA DID NOT SETTLE FOR LESS THAN HOMEOWNERS DESERVE. HER LEADERSHIP -- YEAH, HER LEADERSHIP HELPED WIN BILLIONS ARE WORKING FAMILIES NATIONWIDE. DELIVERING FOR FAMILIES, THAT IS KAMALA HARRIS. KAMALA AND I ALSO WORKED TO PROTECT OUR SOUTHERN BORDER. DURING THAT TIME, KAMALA INVITED A GROUP OF AG'S ACROSS THE BORDER TO MEET WITH MEXICAN OFFICIALS. WE WORKED TOGETHER TO PUT TRANSNATIONAL CRIMINALS AND DRUG SMUGGLERS BEHIND BARS. HOLDING CRIMINALS ACCOUNTABLE, THAT IS KAMALA HARRIS. AND WHEN WE TOOK ON HUMAN TRAFFICKERS, KAMALA HAD US MEET WITH SURVIVORS SO THAT WE COULD UNDERSTAND WHO WE WERE FIGHTING FOR. STANDING UP FOR JUSTICE, THAT IS KAMALA HARRIS. SO TRUST ME, TRUST ME WHEN I SAY I KNOW SHE WILL FIGHT FOR OUR FAMILIES AND OUR FREEDOMS. NOW, WE MUST FIGHT FOR HER. EVERY VOTE MATTERS. I KNOW, IN 2016, NEVADA ELECTED ME, THE GRANDDAUGHTER OF A BANK FROM MEXICO TO SERVE AS THE FIRST LATINA IN THE UNITED STATES SENATE. I'LL TELL YOU WHAT, AND IN 2022, MY REELECTION CAME DOWN TO 7,928 VOTES. BECAUSE OF VOTERS IN NEVADA, THE DEMOCRATS WON BACK SENATE MAJORITY. AND I'M HERE TO TELL YOU WE CAN DO IT AGAIN! WE CAN SEND KAMALA HARRIS AN TIM WALZ TO THE WHITE HOUSE. ARE WE READY TO DO IT? ARE WE READY TO FIGHT? LET'S GET IT DONE, CHICAGO. THANK YOU, EVERYONE! >> David: SENASENATOR CATHERINE CORTEZ MASTO. I WENT TO BRING IN DONNA BRAZILE, SHE MAKES THE POINT THEY ARE TRYING TO REMIND DEMOCRATS HOW CLOSE THIS WILL BE COME NOVEMBER. >> ONE OF THE MOST IMPORTANT STATES IN THE BATTLEGROUND IS PENNSYLVANIA. YOU HAD AN ELECTRIFYING, DYNAMIC GOVERNOR. >> David: JOSH SHAPIRO ON THE SHORT-LIST, THE POTENTIAL RUNNING MATES. A KEY BATTLE GROWN-UP PENNSYLVANIA. HERE IT IS THE GOVERNOR TONIGHT. >> THANK YOU. IT TOO AND HALF CENTURIES AGO IN PHILADELPHIA, A BAND OF PATRIOTS DECLARED THEIR INDEPENDENCE FROM A KING. AND SET OURSELVES ON A PATH OF SELF-DETERMINATION. GENERATION AFTER GENERATION HAS EMBRACED THAT RESPONSIBILITY. ORDINARY AMERICANS RISING UP, DEMANDING MORE, SEEKING JUSTICE. EVERY CHAPTER OF THEIR AMERICAN STORY, WE HAVE MADE PROGRESS AND ADVANCED THE CAUSE OF FREEDOM. TODAY, WE FIND OURSELVES WRITING THAT NEXT CHAPTER. WILL WE BE A NATION DEFINED BY CHAOS AND EXTREMISM? OR WILL WE CHOOSE A PATH OF DECENCY, HONOR, AND CONTINUED PROGRESS. KAMALA HARRIS, WELL, SHE HAS SPENT HER ENTIRE CAREER MAKING PROGRESS. DONALD TRUMP, A MAN WITH NO GUARD RAILS WANTS TO TAKE AWAY OUR RIGHTS AND OUR FREEDOMS. LISTEN, WHILE HE COATS HIMSELF IN THE BLANKET OF FREEDOM, WHAT HE'S OFFERING IS NOT FREEDOM AT ALL. IT'S NOT FREEDOM TO TELL OUR CHILDREN WHAT BOOKS THEY ARE ALLOWED TO READ. [CHEERS AND APPLAUSE] NO, IT'S NOT. AND IT'S FREEDOM TO TELL WOMEN WHAT THEY CAN DO WITH THEIR BODIES. [CHEERS AND APPLAUSE] AND HEAR ME ON THIS, IT SURE AS HELL IS NOT FREEDOM TO SAY YOU CAN GO VOTE, BUT HE GETS TO PICK THE WINNER. THAT IS NOT FREEDOM. YOU KNOW WHAT, DEMOCRATS? WEED, WE ARE THE PARTY OF REAL FREEDOM. THAT'S RIGHT. THE KIND OF REAL FREEDOM THAT COMES WHEN THAT CHILD HAS A GREAT PUBLIC SCHOOL, WHEN AN AWESOME TEACHER BECAUSE WE BELIEVE IN OUR FUTURE. REAL FREEDOM, REAL FREEDOM THAT COMES WHEN WE INVEST IN THE POLICE AND IN THE COMMUNITY SO THAT CHILD CAN WALK TO AND FROM SCHOOL AND GET HOME SAFELY TO HER MAMA. REAL FREEDOM, REAL FREEDOM THAT COMES WHEN SHE CAN JOIN A UNION, MARY WHO SHE LOVES, START A FAMILY ON HER OWN TERMS, REEF CLEAN AIR, DRINK PURE WATER, WORSHIP HOW SHE WANTS, AND LIVE A LIFE OF PURPOSE WHERE SHE IS RESPECTED FOR WHO SHE IS. REAL FREEDOM, REAL FREEDOM COMES WHEN SHE CAN LOOK AT MADAME PRESIDENT AND KNOW THAT THIS IS A NATION WHERE ANYTHING AND EVERYTHING IS POSSIBLE. OF THAT IS REAL FREEDOM AND THAT IS WHAT WE ARE FIGHTING FOR! [CHEERS AND APPLAUSE] YOU KNOW, KAMALA AND TIM'S NAMES MAY BE ON THE BALLOT, BUT IT IS YOUR RIGHTS, OUR RIGHTS, OUR FUTURE AND FREEDOM THAT ARE ON THE LINE. AND YOU HAVE THE POWER TO SHAPE THE FUTURE OF THIS COUNTRY. JUST LIKE OUR ANCESTORS, OUR ANCESTORS WHO FOUGHT FOR FREEDOM ON THE BATTLEFIELD AND SET IN AT LUNCH COUNTERS SO OUR KIDS COULD STAND UP. NOW, NOW IT IS ON US. IT'S ON US, MY FRIENDS, TO ORGANIZE IN OUR COMMUNITIES A AROUND THREE BASIC AMERICAN PRINCIPLES. WE VALUE OUR FREEDOM, WE CHERISH OUR DEMOCRACY, AND WE LOVE THIS COUNTRY! [CHEERS AND APPLAUSE] AND LISTEN, -- [CHANTING "USA"] WE LOVE THIS COUNTRY! AND LISTEN, DESPITE OUR CHALLENGES, HEAR ME ON THIS, I WANT YOU TO KNOW I HAVE NEVER BEEN MORE HOPEFUL BECAUSE I SEE IN ALL OF YOU THE ENDURING PROMISE OF AMERICA.

IT FALLS TO US TO ENSURE THAT WE DO NOT FALL FOR EIGHT PEOPLE THAT CANNOT STAND TOGETHER, CANNOT STAND AT ALL. WE ARE ONE FAMILY, REGARDLESS OF RELIGION, CLASS, OR COLOR. OF FOR WHAT DEFINES A PATRIOT IS NOT JUST OUR LOVE OF LIBERTY, BT OUR LOVE FOR ONE ANOTHER. [CHEERS AND APPLAUSE] THIS IS LOUD IN OUR COUNTRY'S CALL BECAUSE WHILE WE ALL LOVE FREEDOM, IT IS LOVE THAT FREES US ALL. EMPATHY AND MASSIVE PATES, MAKING US GREATER THEN HATE OR VANITY, THAT IS THE AMERICAN PROMISE POWERFUL AND PURE. DIVIDED WE CANNOT ENDURE, BUT UNITED WE CAN ENDEAVOR TO HUMANIZE OUR DEMOCRACY AND ENDEAR DEMOCRACY TO HUMANITY. AND MAKE NO MISTAKE, IT'S THE HARDEST TASK HISTORY EVER WROTE.

[CHEERS AND APPLAUSE] AFTER WATCHING THE OBAMA'S LAST NIGHT, THAT WAS SOME EPIC FIRE, WASN'T IT? SOME EPIC FIRE. WE ARE NOW SO FIRED UP, WE CAN'T WAIT TO LEAVE HERE AND DO SOMETHING. [CHEERS AND APPLAUSE] AND WHAT WE ARE GOING TO DO IS ELECT KAMALA HARRIS AS THE NEXT PRESIDENT OF THE UNITED STATES! [CHEERS AND APPLAUSE] I AM SO HONORED TO BE ASKED TO SPEAK TONIGHT ON WHAT MATTERS MOST TO ME, TO YIELD, AND TO ALL OF US AMERICANS. FREEDOM. [CHEERS AND APPLAUSE] THERE ARE PEOPLE WHO WANT YOU TO SEE OUR COUNTRY AS A NATION OF US AGAINST THEM, PEOPLE WHO WANT TO SCARE YOU, WHO WANT TO RULE YOU, PEOPLE WHO WOULD HAVE YOU BELIEVE THAT BOOKS ARE DANG DANGEROUS. AND ASSAULT RIFLES ARE SAFE. THAT THERE IS A RIGHT WAY TO WORSHIP AND A WRONG WAY TO LOVE. PEOPLE WHO SEEK FIRST TO DIVIDE AND THEN TO CONQUER. BUT HERE'S THE THING, WHEN WE STAND TOGETHER, IT IS IMPOSSIBLE TO CONQUER US. [CHEERS AND APPLAUSE] IN THE WORDS OF AN EXTRAORDINARY AMERICAN, THE LATE CONGRESSMAN JOHN LEWIS. [CHEERS AND APPLAUSE] HE SAID NO MATTER WHAT SHIP OUR ANCESTORS ARRIVED ON, WE ARE ALL IN THE SAME BOAT NOW. [CHEERS AND APPLAUSE] CONGRESSMAN LEWIS KNEW VERY WELL HOW FAR THIS COUNTRY HAS COME BECAUSE HE WAS ONE OF THE BRILLIANT AMERICANS WHO HELPED TO GET US WHERE WE ARE. BUT HE ALSO KNEW THAT THE WORK IS NOT DONE, THE WORK WILL NEVER BE DONE BECAUSE FREEDOM ISN'T FREE. AMERICA IS AN ONGOING PROJECT THAT REQUIRES COMMITMENT, IT REQUIRES BEING OPEN TO THE HARD WORK AND THE HEART WORK OF DEMOCRACY. AND EVERY NOW AND THEN, IT REQUIRES STANDING UP TO LIFE'S BULLIES. [CHEERS AND APPLAUSE] I KNOW THIS, I'VE LIVED IN MISSISSIPPI. IN TENNESSEE. IN WISCONSIN. OF MARYLAND, INDIANA, FLORIDA, HAWAII, COLORADO, CALIFORNIA. CALIFORNIA. AND SWEET HOME CHICAGO, ILLINOIS! [CHEERS AND APPLAUSE] I HAVE ACTUALLY TRAVELED THIS COUNTRY FROM THE REDWOOD FOREST -- LOVE THOSE REDWOODS -- TO THE GULF STREAM WATERS, I HAVE SEEN RACISM AND SEXISM AND INCOME INEQUALITY AND DIVISION. I'M NOT ONLY SEEN IT, AT TIMES I'VE BEEN ON THE RECEIVING END OF IT. BUT MORE OFTEN THAN NOT, WHAT I WITNESSED AND EXPERIENCED ARE HUMAN BEINGS BOTH CONSERVATIVE AND LIBERAL WHO MAY NOT AGREE WITH EACH OTHER, BUT WHO WOULD STILL HELP YOU IN A HEARTBEAT IF YOU WERE IN TROUBLE. THESE ARE THE PEOPLE WHO MAKE ME PROUD TO SAY THAT I AM AN AMERICAN. [CHEERS AND APPLAUSE] THEY ARE THE BEST OF AMERICA, AND DESPITE WHAT SOME WOULD HAVE YOU THINK, WE ARE NOT SO DIFFERENT FROM OUR NEIGHBORS. WHEN A HOUSE IS ON FIRE, WE DON'T ASK ABOUT THE HOMEOWNERS RACE OR RELIGION, WE DON'T WONDER WHO THEIR PARTNER IS OR HOW THEY VOTED, WE JUST TRIED TO DO THE BEST WE CAN TO SAVE THEM. AND IF IT HAPPENS TO BELONG TO A CHCHILDLESS CAT LADY -- [CHEERS AND APPLAUSE] WELL, WE TRIED TO GET THAT CAT OUT TOO. [CHEERS AND APPLAUSE] BECAUSE WE ARE A COUNTRY OF PEOPLE WHO WORK HARD FOR THE MONEY, WE WISH OUR BROTHERS AND SISTERS WELL AND WE PRAY FOR PEACE. WE KNOW ALL THE OLD TRICKS AND TROPES DESIGNED TO DISTRACT US FROM WHAT ACTUALLY MATTERS, BUT WE ARE BEYOND RIDICULOUS TWEETS AND LIES AND FOOLERY. THESE ARE COMPLICATED TIMES, PEOPLE, AND THEY REQUIRE ADULT CONVERSATIONS. AND I WELCOME THOSE CONVERSATIONS BECAUSE CIVILIZED DEBATES ARE VITAL TO DEMOCRACY AND IT IS THE BEST OF AMERICA. NOW OVER THE LAST COUPLE OF WEEKS, WE HAVE ALL SEEN BRAVE PEOPLE WALK ONTO THE STAGE AND SHARE THEIR MOST PRIVATE PAIN. AMANDA AND JOSH, CAITLIN, THEY TOLD US THEY ARE STORIES OF RAPE AND INCEST, FROM HAVING NEAR DEATH EXPERIENCES, TO HAVING THE STATE DENY THEM THE ABORTION THE DOCTOR EXPLAINED WAS MEDICALLY NECESSARY. THEY TOLD US THESE THINGS FOR ONE REASON TO KEEP THOSE THINGS THAT HAPPENED TO THEM FROM HAPPENING TO ANYBODY ELSE. BECAUSE IF YOU DO NOT HAVE AUTONOMY OVER THIS, OVER THIS. IF YOU CANNOT CONTROL WHEN AND HOW YOU CHOOSE TO BRING YOUR CHILDREN INTO THIS WORLD AND HOW THEY ARE RAISED AND SUPPORTED, THERE IS NO AMERICAN DREAM. THE WOMEN AND MEN WHO ARE BATTLING TO KEEP US FROM GOING BACK TO A TIME OF DESPERATION AND SHAME AND STONE COLD FEAR, THEY ARE THE NEW FREEDOM FIGHTERS. AND MAKE NO MISTAKE, THEY ARE THE BEST OF AMERICA. I WANT TO TALK NOW ABOUT SOMEBODY WHO IS NOT WITH US TONIGHT. TESSIE WAS BORN IN NEW ORLEANS NOT LONG AFTER THE SUPREME COURT RULED THAT SEGREGATED PUBLIC SCHOOLS WERE UNCONSTITUTIONAL. THAT WAS IN 1954, SR. I WAS BORN. BUT I DIDN'T HAVE THE HAD TO FIRST GRADE AT THE ALL WHITE MADONNA 1990 SCHOOL WITH THE U.S. MARSHALS ON MY SIDE LIKE TESSA DID. AND WHEN I TO SCHOOL, THE BUILDING WAS NOT EMPTY LIKE IT WAS FOR TESSIE. YOU SEE, RATHER THAN ALLOWING MADONNA TO BE INTEGRATED, PARENTS PULLED THEIR KIDS OUT OF THE SCHOOL. LEAVING ONLY TESSIE AND TO OTHER LITTLE BLACK GIRLS TO SIT IN A CLASSROOM WITH THE WINDOWS PAPERED OVER TO BLOCK SNIPERS FROM ATTACKING THEIR 6-YEAR-OLD BODIES. TESSIE PASSED AWAY SIX WEEKS AGO. AND I TELL THIS STORY TO HONOR HER TONIGHT. BECAUSE SHE -- [CHEERS AND APPLAUSE] SHE, LIKE RUBY BRIDGES AND HER FRIENDS LEONA AND GAIL, THE NEW ORLEANS FOUR THEY WERE CALLED. THEY BROKE BARRIERS AND THEY PAID DEARLY FOR IT. BUT IT WAS THE GRACE AND GUTS AND COURAGE OF WOMAN LIKE TESSIE FWHO PAVED THE WAY OR ANOTHER YOUNG GIRL WHO NINE YEARS LATER BECAME PART OF THE SECOND CLASS TO INTEGRATE THE PUBLIC SCHOOLS IN BROOKLYN CALIFORNIA. [CHEERS AND APPLAUSE] AND IT SEEMS TO ME THAT AT SCHOOL AND AT HOME, SOMEBODY DID A BEAUTIFUL JOB OF SHOWING THIS YOUNG GIRL HOW TO CHALLENGE THE PEOPLE AT THE TOP AND EMPOWER THE PEOPLE AT THE BOTTOM. THEY SHOWED HER HOW TO LOOK AT THE WORLD AND SEE YOU ONE NOT IT JUST IS, BUT WHAT IT CAN BE. THEY INSTILLED IN HER PASSION FOR JUSTICE AND FREEDOM AND THE GLORIOUS FIGHTING SPIRIT NECESSARY TO PURSUE THAT PAS PASSION. AND SOON AND VERY SOON -- [CHEERS AND APPLAUSE] SOON AND VERY SOON WE ARE GOING TO BE TEACHING OUR DAUGHTERS AND SONS ABOUT HOW THIS CHILD OF AN INDIAN MOTHER AND A JAMAICAN FATHER, TWO IDEALISTIC ENERGETIC IMMIGRANTS. IMMIGRANTS. [CHEERS AND APPLAUSE] HOW THIS CHILD GREW UP TO BECOME THE 47TH PRESIDENT OF THE UNITED STATES! [CHEERS AND APPLAUSE] THAT IS THE BEST OF AMERICA! [CHEERS AND APPLAUSE] [CHANTING "USA"] YOU KNOW, YOU KNOW -- LET ME TELL YOU THIS. THIS ELECTION ISN'T ABOUT US OR THEM, IT'S ABOUT YOU AND ME. AND WHAT WE WANT OUR FUTURES TO LOOK LIKE. THERE ARE CHOICES TO BE MADE WHEN WE CAST OUR BALLOTS. NOW, THERE IS A CERTAIN CANDIDATE THAT SAYS WE JUST GO TO THE POLLS JUST ONE TIME. THAT WILL NEVER HAVE TO DO IT AGAIN. WELL YOU KNOW WHAT? YOU'RE LOOKING AT A REGISTERED INDEPENDENT WHO IS PROUD TO VOTE AGAIN AND AGAIN AND AGAIN BECAUSE I AM AN AMERICAN AND THAT'S WHAT AMERICANS DO. [CHEERS AND APPLAUSE] VOTING IS THE BEST OF AMERICA. AND I HAVE ALWAYS SINCE I WAS ELIGIBLE TO VOTE, I'VE ALWAYS VOTED MY VALUES AND THAT IS WHAT'S NEEDED IN THIS ELECTION NOW MORE THAN EVER. SO I'M CALLING ON ALL YOU INDEPENDENCE. AND ALL YOU UNDECIDED. YOU KNOW THIS IS TRUE. YOU KNOW I'M TELLING YOU THE TRUTH. THAT VALUES AND CHARACTER MATTER MOST OF ALL. [CHEERS AND APPLAUSE] IN LEADERSHIP AND IN LIFE. AND MORE THAN ANYTHING, YOU KNOW THIS IS TRUE. WITH DECENCY AND RESPECT ARE ON THE BALLOT IN 2024. [CHEERS AND APPLAUSE] AND JUST PLAIN COMMON SENSE. COMMON SENSE TELLS YOU THAT KAMALA HARRIS AND TIM WALZ CAN GIVE US DECENCY AND RESPECT. THERE ARE THE ONES THAT WILL GIVE IT TO US. SO WE ARE AMERICANS. WE ARE AMERICANS. LET US CHOOSE LOYALTY TO THE CONSTITUTION OVER LOYALTY TO ANY INDIVIDUAL. [CHEERS AND APPLAUSE] BECAUSE THAT'S THE BEST OF AMERICA. AND LET US CHOOSE OPTIMISM OVER CYNICISM. BECAUSE THAT IS THE BEST OF AMERICA. AND LET US CHOOSE INCLUSION OVER RETRIBUTION. LET US CHOOSE COMMON SENSE OVER NONSENSE! BECAUSE THAT'S THE BEST OF AMERICA! AND LET US CHOOSE THE SWEET PROMISE OF TOMORROW OVER THE BITTER RETURN TO YESTERDAY. WE WON'T GO BACK, WE WON'T BE SET BACK, PUSHED BACK, BULLIED BACK, KICKED THE BACK, WE ARE NOT GOING BACK. [CHEERS AND APPLAUSE] NOT GOING BACK. WE ARE NOT GOING BACK. SO, LET US CHOOSE. LET US CHOOSE. LET US CHOOSE TRUTH, LET US CHOOSE HONOR, AND LET US CHOOSE JOY! [CHEERS AND APPLAUSE] BECAUSE THAT'S THE BEST OF AMERICA! BUT MORE THAN ANYTHING ELSE, LET US CHOOSE FREEDOM. WHILE? BECAUSE THAT'S THE BEST OF AMERICA! WE ARE ALL AMERICANS, AND TOGETHER, LET'S ALL CHOOSE KAMALA HARRIS! [CHEERS AND APPLAUSE] THANK YOU, CHICAGO! THANK YOU! [CHEERS AND APPLAUSE] >> David: OPRAH WINFREY BACK IN THE CITY THAT MADE HER FAMOUS. AS I MENTIONED EARLIER, WHERE SHE HOSTED THE "OPRAH WINFREY SHOW" FOR MORE THAN 20 YEARS, MILLIONS OF AMERICANS BRINGING HER INTO THEIR LIVING ROOMS, THEIR KITCHENS EVERY AFTERNOON IN THIS COUNTRY. SHE PROUDLY SET UP THERE TONIGHT AS A REGISTERED INDEPENDENT. I REACH OUT TO THE INDEPENDENCE, THE UNDECIDED, TRYING TO APPEAL TO THE SWING VOTERS SAYING VALUE AND CHARACTER MATTER MOST OF ALL. SHE SAID COMMON SENSE OVER NONSENSE. >> AN INTERESTING POINT THAT SHE BROUGHT UP VERY EARLY ON, THE IDEA THAT REPUBLICAN PARTY IS SAYING THAT BOOKS ARE DANGEROUS AND ASSAULT RIFLES ARE SAFE. AGAIN MAKING A LOT OF DISTINCTIONS. WE HEARD HER USE HER TROUBLE VOICE AT THE END WITH THE JOY AND THAT IS SUCH AN INTERESTING ECHO WE'VE HEARD FROM A NUMBER OF SPEAKERS TONIGHT. HAKEEM JEFFRIES OF COURSE USING SCRIPTURE, WE MAY ENDURE FOR A NIGHT BUT JOY COMES IN THE MORNING. WE HEARD FROM BILL CLINTON TAKING FROM THE MAN KAMALA HARRIS IS THE WOMAN FROM JOY. THERE IS THE CONCERTED EFFORT TO COMPARE AND CONTRAST THIS IDEA THAT MORNING IS COMING, THE IDEA OF HOPE AND JOY WITH KAMALA HARRIS. >> David: THEY ARE SAYING KAMALA HARRIS WILL BRING THE JOY, THE MORNING IN AMERICA. >> WE TALKED ABOUT EARLIER, THIS IS LIKE RONALD REAGAN'S PLAY FROM PATRIOTISM, HOPE, OPTIMISM. BY THE WAY, FUN FACT HERE, WHEN DONALD TRUMP FIRST TALKED ABOUT RUNNING FOR PRESIDENT IN 1999, HE WAS ASKED BY LARRY KING WHO WOULD BE YOUR VICE PRESIDENT AND HE SAID MY FIRST CHOICE WOULD BE TO OPRAH WINFREY. >> David: HISTORY PLAYED OUT DIFFERENTLY. GOVERNOR WES MOORE, RISING STAR IN THE DEMOCRATIC PARTY FROM MARYLAND. LET'S TAKE A LISTEN. >> THANK YOU. ON MARCH 26TH, AT 1:30 A.M. IN THE MORNING, A CONTAINER SHIP THE LENGTH OF THREE FOOTBALL FIELDS SLAMMED INTO THE FRANCIS SCOTT KING BRIDGE IN BALTIMORE. AND THE BRIDGE COLLAPSED. A PORT THAT DRIVES 13% OF OUR STATE'S ECONOMY WAS NOW CLOSED. THOUSANDS OF WORKERS WERE HOURS AWAY FROM WAKING UP AND REALIZING THEY NO LONGER HAD A JOB. SIX MARYLANDERS WHO HAD BEEN ON THE BRIDGE IN THE MIDDLE OF THE NIGHT FIXING POTHOLES LOST THEIR LIVES. AND WHEN THE FIRST PHONE CALLS I GOT THAT MORNING STARTED WITH THESE THREE WORDS. DOUG, IT'S KAMALA. I KNOW YOU SPOKE TO THE PRESIDENT AND I WANT YOU TO KNOW WE'RE HERE WITH YOU EVERY STEP OF THE WAY. NOW, I JOINED THE ARMY WHEN I WAS 17. IN FACT I WAS TOO YOUNG TO SIGN THE PAPERWORK. I HAD TO ASK MY MOM TO SIGN THE PAPERWORK FOR ME BECAUSE I DON'T HAVE BONE SPURS. [CHEERS AND APPLAUSE] I LEAD SOLDIERS IN COMBAT IN AFGHANISTAN. [CHEERS AND APPLAUSE] AND MY TRAINING, MY TRAINING TAUGHT ME THAT YOU NEVER LEARN ANYTHING ABOUT ANYBODY WHEN TIMES ARE EASY. YOU LEARN EVERYTHING YOU NEED TO KNOW ABOUT SOMEBODY WHEN TIMES ARE HARD AND WHEN THE TEMPERATURE GETS TURNED UP AND AMERICA, I SAW THAT KAMALA HARRIS IS THE RIGHT ONE TO LEAD IN THIS MOMENT FIRS FIRSTHAND. [CHEERS AND APPLAUSE] AND UNITED, WITH THE ALMIGHTY GOD'S GRACE, HE BROUGHT CLOSURE TO THE FAMILIES OF THOSE SIX VICTIMS. AND WHILE MANY SAID IT COULD TAKE 11 MONTHS TO REOPEN THE PORT OF BALTIMORE, WE GOT IT DONE IN 11 WEEKS. [CHEERS AND APPLAUSE] BECAUSE THAT IS THE STORY OF AMERICA. WE ARE A NATION OF PATRIOTS WHO SERVE WHEN THE MISSION IS HARD AND WHO SERVE WHEN THE DESTINATION IS UNCERTAIN. AND I KNOW OUR HISTORY IS IMPERFECT. THE UNEVENNESS OF THE AMERICAN JOURNEY HAS MADE SOME SKEPTICAL. BUT I'M NOT ASKING YOU TO GIVE UP YOUR SKEPTICISM. I JUST WANT THAT SKEPTICISM TO BE YOUR COMPANION AND NOT YOUR CAPTOR. [CHEERS AND APPLAUSE] AND I'M ASKING THAT YOU JOIN US IN THE WORK BECAUSE MAKING AMERICA GREAT DOESN'T MEAN TELLING PEOPLE YOU'RE NOT WANTED. [APPLAUSE] AND LOVING YOUR COUNTRY DOES NOT MEAN LYING ABOUT ITS HISTORY. [CHEERS AND APPLAUSE] MAKING AMERICA GREAT MEANS SAYING THE AMBITIONS OF THIS COUNTRY WOULD BE INCOMPLETE WITHOUT YOUR HELP. IT'S THE LEGACY OF THOSE SIX WORKERS WHO FIXED POTHOLES ON A BRIDGE WHILE WE SLEPT. WHO WERE BORN IN A DIFFERENT COUNTRY, BUT WHO KNEW THAT AMERICA WAS BIG ENOUGH FOR THEM TOO. [CHEERS AND APPLAUSE] IT'S THE JOURNEY, IT'S THE JOURNEY OF A MAN RAISED BY A REMARKABLE IMMIGRANT SINGLE MOM, A MAN WHO FELT HANDCUFFS ON HIS WRIST AT 11 YEARS OLD WHO NOW STANDS BEFORE YOU AS THE 63RD GOVERNOR OF MARYLAND AND THE FIRST BLACK GOVERNOR IN THE HISTORY OF OUR STATE. [CHEERS AND APPLAUSE] IT'S THE STORY, IT'S THE STORY OF A PROSECUTOR WHO DEFENDED OUR FREEDOMS AND HAD MARILYN'S BACK WHEN WE NEEDED IT MOST. AND NOW, MVP, WE'VE GOT YOUR BACK AS WELL! [CHEERS AND APPLAUSE] [CHANTING "MPV"] IT'S MYFELLOW VETERAN, MY BROTHE NEXT VICE PRESIDENT OF THE UNITED STATES TIM WALZ. AND NOW, TIM KNOWS THAT IN THE MILITARY YOU COUNT THE DAYS TOWARDS MISSION COMPLETION. SO GUESS WHAT, Y'ALL, WE HAVE GOT 75 DAYS UNTIL WE WAKE UP UNTIL ELECTION DAY. [CHEERS AND APPLAUSE] 75 DAYS AND A WAKE UP FOR US TO PROVE WHAT AMERICANS CAN DO WHEN THE PRESSURE IS ON. 75 DAYS AND A WAKE UP FOR US TO SHOW THAT TRUE PATRIOTS DO NOT WHINE AND COMPLAIN, WE PUT OUR HEADS DOWN AND WE GET TO WORK. [CHEERS AND APPLAUSE] 75 DAYS AND A WAKE UP TO BUILD A FUTURE THAT THOSE WHO CAME BEFORE US HOPE FOR. AND THOSE WHO COME AFTER US THEY DESERVE. AND 75 DAYS AND A WAKE UP TO ELECT A LEADER WHO IS WILLING TO BELIEVE IN THE BEST OF US AND THAT LEADER IS KAMALA HARRIS, THE NEXT PRESIDENT OF THE UNITED STATES! THANK YOU, GOD BLESS YOU, AND LET'S LEAVE NO ONE BEHIND. >> David: GOVERNOR WES MOORE ON THE STAGE, TERRY MORAN, YOU AND I BOTH INTERVIEWED THE GOVERNOR AFTER THE BRIDGE COLLAPSED AND HE TOLD A PREFERABLE STORY ABOUT THE WORKERS ON THE BRIDGE. >> HE DID SOMETHING ELSE, HE DID THE WORK, THE HOURS, THE DAYS COME OF THE WEEK AFTER THE BRIDGE WENT DOWN. HE MANAGED THE CRISIS IN NO WAY THAT PEOPLE OF MARYLAND RESPONDED SENDING GOALS AND PRIORITIES. PUSHING TO GET THE JOB DONE, AS IT WAS IN REMARKABLE FACTION. FASHION. >> David: SECRETARY OF TRANSPORTATION, PETE BUTTIGIEG. FROM SOUTH BEND INDIANA. LET'S LISTEN. >> CHICAGO, HERE'S A SENTENCE I NEVER THOUGHT I WOULD HEAR MYSELF SAYING. I'M PETE BUTTIGIEG AND YOU MIGHT RECOGNIZE ME FROM FOX NEWS. [CHEERING AND LAUGHTER] I BELIEVE IN GOING ANYWHERE, ANYWHERE IN SERVICE OF A GOOD CAUSE AND FRIENDS WE GATHER IN A VERY GOOD CAUSE ELECT IN KAMALA HARRIS AND TIM WALZ, THE NEXT PRESIDENT AND VICE PRESIDENT OF THE UNITED STATES. THE CHOICE COULD NOT BE CLEARER. DONALD TRUMP RANTS ABOUT LAW AND ORDER AS IF HE WASN'T A CONVICTED CRIMINAL RUNNING AGAINST A PROSECUTOR. AS IF WE WERE GOING TO FORGET THAT CRIME WAS HIGHER ON HIS WATCH. TALKS ABOUT THE FORGOTTEN MAN, HOPING WE'LL FORGET THAT THE ONLY ECONOMIC PROMISE THAT HE ACTUALLY KEPT WAS TO CUT TAXES FOR THE RICH. AND DON'T EVEN GET ME STARTED ON HIS NEW RUNNING MATE. [BOOS] AT LEAST MIKE PENCE WAS POLITE. [LAUGHTER] J.D. VANCE IS ONE OF THOSE GUYS WHO THINKS IF YOU DON'T LIVE THE LIFE THAT HE HAS IN MIND FOR YOU, THEN YOU DON'T COUNT. SOMEONE WHO SAID THAT IF YOU DON'T HAVE KIDS, YOU HAVE "NO PHYSICAL COMMITMENT TO THE FUTURE OF THIS COUNTRY." [BOOS] YOU KNOW, SENATOR, WHEN I DEPLOYED TO AFGHANISTAN, I DIDN'T HAVE KIDS THEN. MANY OF THE MEN AND WOMEN WHO WENT OUTSIDE THE WIRE WITH ME DIDN'T HAVE KIDS EITHER. BUT LET ME TELL YOU, OUR COMMITMENT TO THE FUTURE OF THIS COUNTRY WAS PRETTY PHYSICAL. [CHEERS AND APPLAUSE] CHOOSING A GUY LIKE J.D. VANCE TO BE AMERICA'S NEXT VICE PRESIDENT SENDS A MESSAGE AND THE MESSAGE IS THAT THEY ARE DOUBLING DOWN ON NEGATIVITY AND GRIEVANCE. COMMITTING TO A CONCEPT OF COMPOUNDING BEST SUMMED UP IN ONE WORD. DARKNESS. DARKNESS IS WHAT THEY ARE SELLING. THE THING IS, I JUST DON'T BELIEVE THAT AMERICA TODAY IS IN THE MARKET FOR DARKNESS. [CHEERS AND APPLAUSE] I BELIEVE AMERICA IS READY FOR A BETTER KIND OF POLITICS. YES, POLITICS AT ITS WORST CAN BE UGLY, CRUSHING, DEMEANING, BUT IT DOESN'T HAVE TO BE. AT ITS BEST, POLITICS CAN BE EMPOWERING, UPLIFTING, YOU CAN EVEN BE A KIND OF SOUL CRAFT. THE WORLD ISN'T MADE UP OF GOOD PEOPLE AND BAD PEOPLE, BUT RATHER EACH OF US IS CAPABLE OF GOOD AND BAD THINGS. AND I BELIEVE LEADERS MATTER BECAUSE OF WHAT THEY BRING OUT IN EACH OF US. THE GOOD OR THE BAD. RIGHT NOW, THE OTHER SIDE IS APPEALING TO WHAT SMALLEST WITHIN YOU. THEY ARE TELLING YOU THAT GREATNESS COMES FROM GOING BACK TO THE PAST. THEY ARE TELLING YOU THAT ANYONE DIFFERENT FROM YOU IS A THREAT. THEY ARE TELLING YOU THAT YOUR NEIGHBOR OR NEPHEW OR DAUGHTER WHO DISAGREES WITH YOU POLITICALLY ISN'T JUST WRONG, BUT IS NOW THE ENEMY. I BELIEVED IN A BETTER POLITICS, ONE THAT FINDS US AT OUR MOST DECENT AND OPEN AND BRAVE. THE KIND OF POLITICS THAT KAMALA HARRIS AND TIM WALZ ARE OFFERING AND AS YOU HAVE FELT, THESE MANY DAYS, THE KIND OF POLITICS ALSO JUST FEELS BETTER TO BE PART OF. [CHEERS AND APPLAUSE] THERE IS JOY IN IT AS WELL AS POWER. IF ALL OF THAT SOUNDS NAIVE, LET ME INSIST THAT I HAVE COME TO THIS VIEW NOT BY WAY OF IDEALISM, BUT WAY OF EXPERIENCE. NOT JUST THE EXPERIENCE OF MY UNLIKELY CAREER, SOMEONE LIKE ME SERVING IN INDIANA, SERVING IN WASHINGTON, SERVING IN UNIFORM. I'M THINKING OF SOMETHING MUCH MORE BASIC. I'M THINKING OF DINNER TIME AT OUR IN MICHIGAN. [CHEERS AND APPLAUSE] WHEN THE DOG IS BARKING AND THE AIR FRYER IS BEEPING AND THEN AND THE MAC AND CHEESE IS BOILING OVER. AND IT FEELS LIKE ALL THE POLITICAL NEGOTIATING EXPERIENCE OF THE WORLD IS NOT ENOUGH FOR ME TO GET OUR 3-YEAR-OLD SON AND 3-YEAR-OLD DAUGHTER TO JUST WASH THEIR HANDS AND SIT AT THE TA TABLE. IT'S THE PART OF OUR DAY WHEN POLITICS SEEMS THE MOST DISTANT. AND YET, THE MAKEUP OF OUR KITCHEN TABLE, THE EXISTENCE OF MY FAMILY IS JUST ONE EXAMPLE OF SOMETHING THAT WAS LITERALLY IMPOSSIBLE AS RECENTLY AS 25 YEARS AGO WHEN AN ANXIOUS TEENAGER GROWING UP IN INDIANA WONDERED IF HE WOULD EVER FIND BELONGING IN THIS WORLD. BELONGING AND THIS WORLD THIS WORLD. [CHEERS AND APPLAUSE] THIS KIND OF LIFE WENT FROM IMPOSSIBLE TO POSSIBLE. FROM POSSIBLE TO RAIL. FROM REAL TO ALMOST ORDINARY IN LESS THAN HALF A LIFETIME. [CHEERS AND APPLAUSE] BUT, BUT THAT DIDN'T JUST HAPPEN, IT WAS BROUGHT ABOUT THROUGH IDEALISM AND COURAGE. THROUGH ORGANIZING AND PERSUASION AND STORYTELLING. AND YES, THROUGH POLITICS. THE RIGHT KIND OF POLITICS. THE KIND OF POLITICS THAT CAN MAKE AN IMPOSSIBLE DREAM INTO A EVERYDAY REALITY. I DO NOT PRESUME TO KNOW WHAT IT IS LIKE IN YOUR KITCHEN, BUT I'M SURE -- TO EVERYTHING IN IT, THE BILLS TO PAY AT THAT TABLE, THE SHAPE OF THE FAMILY THAT SITS THERE, DEAF EARS, AND THE DREAMS THAT YOU TALK ABOUT WASTE INTO THE NIGHTMARES. ALL IF THEY COMPELS US TO DEMAND MORE FROM OUR POLITICS AND A RERUN OF SOME TV WRESTLING DEATHMATCH. [CHEERS AND APPLAUSE] SO, THIS NOVEMBER WE GET TO CHOOSE. WE GET TO CHOOSE OUR PRESIDENT. WE GET TO CHOOSE OUR POLICIES, BUT MOST OF ALL WE WILL CHOOSE A BETTER POLITICS. A POLITICS THAT CALLS US TO OUR BETTER SELVES AND OFFERS US A BETTER EVERY DAY. THAT IS WHAT KAMALA HARRIS AND TIM WALZ WERE PRESENT. THAT IS WHAT DEMOCRATS REPRESENT. THAT IS WHAT AWAITS US WHEN AMERICA DECIDES TO END TRUMPS POLITICS OF DARKNESS ONCE AND FOR ALL. THAT IS WHAT WE CHOOSE WHEN WE EMBRACE THE LEADERS THAT ARE OUT THERE BUILDING BRIDGES AND REJECT THE ONES THAT ARE OUT THERE BANNING BOOKS. THIS IS WHAT WE WILL WORK FOR EVERY DAY TO NOVEMBER AND BEYOND. SO LET'S GO WIN THIS. THANK YOU, DEMOCRATS! >> SECRETARY PETE BUTTIGIEG ON THAT STAGE WITH ANOTHER CALL TO ACTION FROM DEMOCRATS IN THIS CONVENTION HALL AND WATCHING AROUND THE COUNTRY. RACHEL SCOTT DOWN ON THE FLOOR. APPEALING TO THE JOY. THIS NOTION THAT IT IS JUST FEELS RIGHT TO BE PART OF A CAUSE THAT BRINGS JOY AS KAMALA HARRIS HAS TRIED TO DO THESE LAST COUPLE OF WEEKS. THAT IS THE ARGUMENT THAT HE IS MAKING. >> DAVID, IT IS CLEAR TO EVERY SPEAKER THAT GETS ON THE STAGE IS TRYING TO DRAW THAT DIRECT CONTRAST FROM WHAT THEY BELIEVE THIS CAMPAIGN REPRESENTS. THE HARRIS CAMPAIGN REPRESENTS VERSUS WHAT THEY BELIEVE DONALD TRUMP CAMPAIGN REPRESENT. THEY ARE GOING FROM CONTRAST JOY BASED ON DIVISIVENESS. WHAT WE HEARD FROM OPRAH, SECRETARY AS WELL. >> RACHEL SCOTT ON THE FLOOR. THANK YOU. TO BRING YOU UP TO SPEED AT HOME. EACH ONE OF THESE NIGHTS HAVE GONE LONGER THAN THE LAST. WE HAD A LITTLE BIT OF DATA AT THE REPUBLICAN CONVENTION. NIGHT FOR GOING LATER THAN WE THOUGHT. JOHN LEGEND IS COMING UP NEXT WITH A PERFORMANCE HERE WITH A MINNESOTA TRIBUTE TO TIM WALZ. THEN WE ARE GOING TO HEAR FROM TIM WALT'S WIFE. KAMALA HARRIS' CHOICE FOR RUNNING MATE AND DISTANCES ARGUMENT ELITE -- BIGGEST NIGHT OF HIS POLITICAL CAREER. WE JUST LEARNED THAT KAMALA HARRIS GAVE HIM A CALL. SHE WISHED HIM, GOOD LUCK. >> THIS INCREDIBLE STAGE FOR THIS GUY. THIS IS SOMEBODY WHO GREW UP IN A TINY FARM TOWN. THIS IS SOMEBODY WHO IS A SOCIAL STUDIES TEACHER, A HIGH SCHOOL COACH, FOOTBALL COACH. NOW HE IS GOT JOHN LEGEND INTRODUCING HIM FOR HIS SPEECH. >> JOHN LEGEND AND LET'S LISTEN. ♪ ♪ ♪ ♪ ♪ ♪ ♪ ♪ ♪ ♪ ♪ ♪ ♪ ♪ ♪ ♪ THE GOOD JOHN LEGEND. "LET'S GO CRAZY FOR PURPLE RAIN." A TRIBUTE TO PRINCE, MINNEAPOLIS, MINNESOTA, AND KING UP -- INTRODUCE HIMSELF. NOT BAD TO HAVE JOHN LEGEND TO YOU. FIRST SENATOR FROM MINNESOTA. GOING TO GIVE A NOMINATING SPEECH ON THE CONVENTION FLOOR. SENATOR RAN FOR PRESIDENT HERSELF. WE RUMORED THAT A FEW YEARS BACK. THREE YEAR -- SHE SENT OUT THIS NOTE THAT MINNESOTA IS KNOWN OF A LAND OF VICE PRESIDENTS. WE'VE GOT ANOTHER GREAT ONE ON THE WAY. SHE'S BEEN OUT THERE MAKING THE CASE AND DEFENDING TIM WALZ FROM ANY ATTACKS FROM THE REPUBLICAN SIDE. >> THEIR HOPE THAT THEY'RE GOING TO SEE IN OUR VICE PRESIDENT HEAD TO THE WHITE HOUSE FROM MINNESOTA. WHAT STRIKES ME IS THAT WE ARE ALSO HEARING TONIGHT MORE ABOUT SOME WHAT WE HAVE NOT HEARD A LOT ABOUT TONIGHT AND THAT WAS J.D. VANCE. YOU HEARD MANY OF THE SPEAKER SO FAR LEADING INTO THIS MENTIONING PETE BUTTIGIEG, THE THREAT THAT HE FEELS HE POSES, THIS ARGUMENT THAT THE DEMOCRATS FEEL THIS TICKET IS MORE DEVICES, MORE DANGEROUS, AND COUNTERING THAT WITH THREE LETTER WORD THAT WE KEEP HEARING OVER AND OVER AGAIN I'M A "JOINT." -- OPRAH SAYING THAT WE WOULD SAVE THE CAT TOO. SENATOR AMY GLOVER CHAR ON ST STAGE. >> THAT WAS A WARM-UP ACT. ON BEHALF OF THE GREAT STATE OF MINNESOTA. WHERE PURPLE RAINS. I STAND BEFORE YOU IN SUPPORT OF OUR NEXT VICE PRESIDENT TIM WALZ. [CHEERS AND APPLAUSE] IN MINNESOTA WE TRUST A COACH WHO TURNED A TEAM THAT WAS 0-27 AND TO STATE CHAMPIONS. IN MINNESOTA WE TRUST A HUNTER WHO HAS STOOD IN A DEER STAND IN 10-DEGREE WEATHER. IN MINNESOTA, WE TRUST A CANDIDATE WHO HAS MADE A VIRAL VIDEO ON HOW TO CHANGE A BIRD OUT HEADLIGHT. AND I KNOW, WE ARE NOT ALONE, BUT IN MINNESOTA, WE LOVE A DAD IN PLAID. SO, TIM AND I GO WAY BACK. HE TAUGHT HIGH SCHOOL RIGHT DOWN THE ROAD FROM WHERE MY HUSBAND JOHN GREW UP. MY MOTHER-IN-LAW EVEN BROUGHT HIM AND GWEN A PARMESAN CHICKEN DINNER WHEN THEIR SON WAS BORN. THAT IS WHAT WE DO IN AMERICA. WE LOOK OUT FOR OUR NEIGHBORS. TIM HAS BEEN DOING THAT HIS WHOLE LIFE. ON THE FARM AND IN THE FACTORY WITH HIS STUDENTS AND HIS FELLOW SERVICE MEMBERS. AND THE TRUTH IS, THAT MATTERS. [CHEERS AND APPLAUSE] WHO BETTER THAN TAKE ON THE PRICE OF GAS THEN A GUY WHO COULD PULL OVER TO HELP CHANGE YOUR TIRE. WHO BETTER TO SERVE OUR NATION THEN A GUY WHO HAS SERVED IN UNIFORM. WHO BETTER TO FIND COMMON GROUND THAN A GUY WITH MIDWESTERN COMMON SENSE.

I GREW UP NEXT DOOR -- WAS ALSO MY GEOGRAPHY TEACHER AND MY COACH. NOT FOR HIGH SCHOOL FOOTBALL, BUT FOR SEVEN GRADE BASKETBALL AND TRACK. SO WHAT WAS A HIGH SCHOOL FOOTBALL COACH -- THERE WAS A KID IN THE HIGH SCHOOL WHO CANNOT AFFORD TO PAY FOR LUNCH AND HE RAN UP A LOT OF DEPTH. DECIDED THEY WOULD HELP PAY IT OFF. THEY STARTED CALLING HER ON THE DISTRICT TO SEE IF THERE IS ANY POSITIONS THEY COULD FILL TO MAKE A LITTLE EXTRA MONEY AND THAT IS HOW HE WOUND UP COACHING A SEVENTH GRADERS. THAT IS RIGHT. COACH WALZ GOT US EXCITED ABOUT WHAT WE MIGHT ACHIEVE TOGETHER. HE BELIEVED IN US AND HE HELPED US BELIEVE IN EACH OTHER. HIS LEADERSHIP STOP.

WELL, IN MY NEIGHBORHOOD WE ALWAYS WISH THAT PEOPLE LIKE THAT WOULD RUN FOR OFFICE. WELL, IN MY NEIGHBORHOOD SOMEONE LIKE THAT DIDN'T RUN FOR OFFICE. AND HE IS GOING TO BE A WONDERFUL VICE PRESIDENT. THANK YOU VERY MUCH. >> FORMER NEXT-DOOR NEIGHBOR, STUDENT, TRACK STAR. >> WE ARE REMINDED ABOUT THE VALUES WE SHARE. COMMITMENT TO COMMUNITY, COUNTRY, AND STANDING UP FOR WHAT IS RIGHT. TIM WALZ GREW UP AND A SMALL TOWN IN NEBRASKA WHERE HE SPENT SUMMERS WORKING TO FAMILY FARM. THERE WAS JUST 24 STUDENTS IN THIS GRADUATING CLASS. HIS DAD SERVED DURING THE KOREAN WAR AND THAT MEANT A LOT TO TIM SO HE ENLISTED RIGHT AFTER HIS 17TH BIRTHDAY AND SERVED 24 YEARS IN THE NATIONAL GUARD. RISING TO COMMAND SERGEANT MAJOR. TIM WENT TO COLLEGE ON THE G.I. BILL AND BECAME A SOCIAL STUDIES TEACHER. THAT IS WHERE TIM AND I MEANT. WE SHARED A CLASSROOM WITH A DIVIDER RIGHT DOWN THE MIDDLE. HIS CLASSROOM WAS A LOT LOUDER THAN MINE, BUT I CAN HEAR HOW ENGAGED TO STUDENTS WERE. TIM TAUGHT FOR OVER 15 YEARS AND HE COACHED FOOTBALL, HELPING LEAD THE TEAM TO A STATE CHAMPIONSHIP AFTER ZERO WINS JUST A FEW YEARS BEFORE. TIM TAUGHT THEM HOW TO BELIEVE IN THEMSELVES AND THAT WE ARE ALL IN THIS TOGETHER. WHEN ONE OF OUR STUDENTS STARTED THE SCHOOL'S STRAIGHT ALLIANCE TIM AGREED TO SERVE AS FACULTY ADVISOR BECAUSE HE KNEW HOW IMPACTFUL IT WOULD BE TO HAVE A FOOTBALL COACH INVOLVED. HE INSPIRED HIS STUDENTS AND HE CHANGED LIVES. >> HE SO JOYFUL IN EVERYTHING HE DOES. ALSO STANDING UP FOR WHAT HE BELIEVES TO BE RIGHT. IT STANDS UP TO BULLIES. >> THEN TIM STUDENTS INSPIRED HIM TO RUN FOR CONGRESS AND SUFFER IN MINNESOTA. TIM SPENT A LOT OF TIME WORKING WITH REPUBLICANS FIGHTING TO HELP FARMERS AND EXPANDING VETERANS BENEFITS WHETHER IT WAS IN CONGRESS OR AS GOVERNOR. HIS FOCUS HAS ALWAYS BEEN HELPING WORKING PEOPLE LIKE THOSE HE GREW UP WITH.

[CHEERS AND APPLAUSE] THANK YOU. THANK YOU, FIRST OF ALL TO VICE PRESIDENT HARRIS. THANKS FOR PUTTING YOUR TRUST AND ME AND FOR INVITING ME TO BE PART OF THIS INCREDIBLE CAMPAIGN. [CHEERS AND APPLAUSE] ENDED THANK YOU TO PRES PRESIDENT JOE BIDEN FOR FOUR YEARS OF STRONG HISTORIC LEADERSHIP. [CHEERS AND APPLAUSE] IT IS THE HONOR OF MY LIFE TO ACCEPT YOUR NOMINATION FOR VICE PRESIDENT OF THE UNITED STATES. [CHEERS AND APPLAUSE] WE ARE ALL HERE TONIGHT FOR ONE BEAUTIFUL SIMPLE REASON: WE LOVE THIS COUNTRY. SO, THANK YOU TO ALL OF YOU HERE IN CHICAGO AND ALL OF YOU WATCHING AT HOME TONIGHT. THANK YOU FOR YOUR PASSION, THANK YOU FOR YOUR DETERMINATION, AND MOST OF ALL, THANK YOU FOR BRINGING THE JOY TO THIS FIGHT. [CHEERS AND APPLAUSE] NOW I GREW UP IN BUTTE NEBRASKA. A TOWN OF 400 PEOPLE. I HAD 24 KIDS IN MY HIGH SCHOOL CLASS AND NONE OF THEM WENT TO YALE. BUT I WILL TELL YOU WHAT, GROWING UP IN A SMALL TOWN LIKE THAT YOU LEARN HOW TO TAKE CARE OF EACH OTHER. THAT FAMILY DOWN THE ROAD, THEY MAY NOT THINK LIKE YOU DO, THEY MAY NOT PRAY LIKE YOU DO, THEY MAY NOT LOVE LIKE YOU DO, BUT THEY ARE YOUR NEIGHBORS, AND YOU LOOK OUT FOR THEM, AND A LOOK OUT FOR YOU. EVERYBODY BELONGS. AND EVERYBODY HAS A RESPONSIBILITY TO CONTRIBUTE. FOR ME IT WAS SERVING IN THE ARMY NATIONAL GUARD. I JOINED UP TWO DAYS AFTER MY 17TH BIRTHDAY AND I PROUDLY WORE OUR NATIONS UNIFORM FOR 24 YE YEARS. MY DAD A KOREAN WAR ERA ARMY VETERAN DIED OF LUNG CANCER A COUPLE OF YEARS LATER. HE LEFT BEHIND A MOUNTAIN OF MEDICAL DEPTH. THANK GOD FOR SOCIAL SECURITY SURVIVOR BENEFITS. AND THANK GOD FOR THE G.I. BILL AT THAT ALLOWED MY DAD AND ME TO GO TO COLLEGE, AND MILLIONS OF OTHER AMERICANS HERE AT EVENTUALLY, LIKE THE REST OF MY FAMILY, I FELL IN LOVE WITH TEACHING. THREE HOUR FOR FOUR OF US MARRIED TEACHERS. I WOUND UP TEACHING SOCIAL STUDIES AND COACHING FOOTBALL AT MANKATO WEST HIGH SCHOOL. GO SCARLETT'S! [CHEERS AND APPLAUSE] WE RAN 844 DEFENSE. WE PLAYED THROUGH TO THE WHISTLE ON EVERY SINGLE PLAY. AND WE EVEN WON A STATE CHAMPIONSHIP. [CHEERS AND APPLAUSE] NEVER CLOSE TO YOUR BOOK, PEOPLE, BUT IT WAS THOSE PLAYERS IN MY STUDENTS WHO ASPIRED ME TO RUN FOR CONGRESS. THEY SAW IN ME WHAT I HAD HOPED TO INSTILL IN THEM, A COMMITMENT TO THE COMMON GOOD, AND UNDERSTANDING THAT WE ARE ALL IN THIS TOGETHER. AND THE BELIEF THAT A SINGLE PERSON CAN MAKE A REAL DIFFERENCE FOR THEIR NEIGHBORS. [CHEERS AND APPLAUSE] SO THERE I WAS A FORTYSOMETHING HIGH SCHOOL TEACHER WITH LITTLE KIDS, ZERO POLITICAL EXPERIENCE, AND NO MONEY RUNNING IN A DEEP RED DISTRICT, BUT YOU KNOW WHAT? NEVER UNDERESTIMATE A PUBLIC SCHOOL TEACHER. NEVER. [CHEERS AND APPLAUSE] I REPRESENTED MY NEIGHBORS AND CONGRESS FOR 12 YEARS AND I LEARNED A AWFUL LOT. I LEARNED HOW TO WORK ACROSS THE AISLE ON ISSUES LIKE GROWING THE ROYAL ECONOMIES AND TAKING CARE OF VETERANS. I LEARNED HOW TO COMPROMISE WITHOUT COMPROMISING MY VALUES. THEN I CAME BACK TO SERVE AS GOVERNOR AND WE GOT RIGHT TO WORK MAKING A DIFFERENCE IN OUR NEIGHBOR'S LIVES. WE CUT TAXES FOR THE MIDDLE CLASS. WE PAST PAID FAMILY AND MEDICAL LEAVE. WE INVESTED IN FIGHTING CRIME AND AFFORDABLE HOUSING. WE CUT THE COST OF PRESCRIPTION DRUGS AND HELPED PEOPLE ESCAPE THE KIND OF MEDICAL DEPTH THAT NEARLY SANK MY FAMILY. AND WE MADE SURE THAT EVERY KID IN OUR STATE GETS BREAKFAST AND LUNCH EVERY DAY. [CHEERS AND APPLAUSE] SO WHILE OTHER STATES WERE BANNING BOOKS FROM THEIR SCHOOLS, WE WERE BANISHING HUNGER FROM OURS. [CHEERS AND APPLAUSE] WE ALSO PROTECTED REPRODUCTIVE FREEDOM, BECAUSE IN MINNESOTA WE RESPECT OUR NEIGHBORS AND THE PERSONAL CHURROS IS THEY MAKE PERSONAL CHOICES THAT THEY MAKE. AND EVEN IF WE WOULD NOT MAKE THE SAME CHOICES FOR OURSELVES, WE HAVE GOT THE GOLDEN RULE, MIND YOUR OWN DAMN BUSINESS. [CHEERS AND APPLAUSE] AND THAT INCLUDES IVF AND FERTILITY TREATMENT. THIS IS PERSONAL FOR GWEN AND I. IF YOU'VE NEVER EXPERIENCED THE HILL THAT IS INFERTILITY I GUARANTEE YOU YOU KNOW SOMEBODY WHO HAS AND I CAN REMEMBER PRAYING EACH NIGHT FOR A PHONE CALL. THE PIT IN YOUR STOMACH WHEN THE PHONE HAD RANG AND THE ABSOLUTE AGONY WHEN WE HEARD THAT TREATMENTS HAD NOT WORKED. IT TOOK GWEN AND I YEARS, BUT WE HAD ACCESS TO FERTILITY TREATMENT. AND WHEN OUR DAUGHTER WAS BORN WE NAMED HER HOPE. [CHEERS AND APPLAUSE] HOPE, GUS, AND GWEN, YOU ARE MY ENTIRE WORLD AND I LOVE YOU. [CHEERS AND APPLAUSE] I AM LETTING YOU IN ON HOW WE STARTED A FAMILY BECAUSE THIS IS A BIG PART ABOUT WHAT THIS ELECTION IS ABOUT. FREEDOM. WHEN REPUBLICANS USE THE WORD FREEDOM THEY MEAN THAT THE GOVERNMENT SHOULD BE FREE TO INVADE YOUR DOCTOR'S OFFICE. CORPORATIONS FREE TO POLLUTE YOUR AIR AND WATER. AND BANKS, FREE TO TAKE ADVANTAGE OF CUSTOMERS. BUT WHEN WE DEMOCRATS TALK ABOUT FREEDOM WE MEAN THE FREEDOM TO MAKE A BETTER LIFE FOR YOURSELF AND THE PEOPLE THAT YOU LOVE. [CHEERS AND APPLAUSE] FREEDOM TO MAKE YOUR OWN HEALTH CARE DECISIONS, AND YEAH, YOUR KIDS FREEDOM TO GO TO SCHOOL WITHOUT WORRYING ABOUT BEING SHOT IN THE HALL. LOOK, I KNOW GUNS. I'M A VETERAN. I'M A HUNTER. AND I WAS A BETTER SHOT THAN MOST REPUBLICANS IN CONGRESS AND I GOT THE TROPHIES TO PROVE IT. [CHEERS AND APPLAUSE] BUT I AM ALSO A DAD. I BELIEVE IN THE SECOND AMENDMENT, BUT I ALSO BELIEVE OUR FIRST RESPONSIBILITY IS TO KEEP OUR KIDS SAFE. [CHEERS AND APPLAUSE] THAT IS WHAT THIS IS ALL ABOUT. THEIR RESPONSIBILITY WE HAVE TO OUR KIDS, TO EACH OTHER, AND TO THE FUTURE THAT WE ARE BUILDING TOGETHER IN WHICH EVERYONE IS FREE TO BUILD THE KIND OF LIFE THEY WANT. BUT NOT EVERYONE HAS THAT SAME SENSE OF RESPONSIBILITY. SOME FOLKS JUST DON'T UNDERSTAND WHAT IT TAKES TO BE A GOOD NEIGHBOR. TAKE DONALD TRUMP AND J.D. VANCE. [BOOS] THERE PROJECT 2025 WILL MAKE THINGS MUCH, MUCH HARDER FOR PEOPLE WHO ARE JUST TRYING TO LIVE THEIR LIVES. THEY SPENT A LOT OF TIME PRETENDING THEY KNOW NOTHING ABOUT THIS, BUT LOOK, I COACH HIGH SCHOOL FOOTBALL LONG ENOUGH TO KNOW, AND TRUST ME ON THIS, WHEN SOMEBODY TAKES THE TIME TO DRAW UP A PLAYBOOK, THEY ARE GOING TO USE IT. [CHEERS AND APPLAUSE] AND WE KNOW, IF THESE GUYS GET BACK IN THE WHITE HOUSE, THEY WILL START JACKING UP THE COST ON THE MIDDLE CLASS, THEY WILL REPEAL THE AFFORDABLE CARE ACT, THEY WILL GOT SOCIAL SECURITY AND MEDICARE, AND THEY WILL BE AN ABORTION ACROSS THIS COUNTRY WITH OR WITHOUT CONGRESS. [BOOS] HERE IS THE THING. IT IS AN AGENDA NOBODY ASKED FOR. IT IS AN AGENDA THAT SERVES NOBODY EXCEPT THE RICHEST AND THE MOST EXTREME AMONGST US. AND IT IS AN AGENDA THAT DOES NOTHING FOR OUR NEIGHBORS IN NEED. IS THAT WEIRD? ABSOLUTELY. ABSOLUTELY. BUT IT IS ALSO WRONG AND IT IS DANGEROUS. IT IS NOT JUST ME SAYING SO. IT IS TRUMPS ON PEOPLE. THEY WERE WITH HIM FOR FOUR YEARS. THERE WARNING US THAT THE NEXT FOUR YEARS WILL BE MUCH, MUCH WORSE. YOU KNOW WHEN I WAS TEACHING EVERY YEAR, WE ELECT THE STUDENT BODY PRESIDENT, AND YOU KNOW WHAT, DOES TEENAGERS CAN TEACH DONALD TRUMP A HELL OF A LOT OF WHAT A LEADER IS. LEADERS DON'T SPEND ALL DAY INSULTING PEOPLE AND BLAMING OTHERS. LEADERS DO THE WORK. SO I DON'T KNOW ABOUT YOU, I'M READY TO TURN THE PAGE ON THESE GUYS. SO GO AHEAD. SAY IT WITH ME. WE ARE NOT GOING BACK. [CROWD CHANTING "WE ARE NOT GOING BACK"] WE HAVE GOT SOMETHING BETTER TO OFFER THE AMERICAN PEOPLE. IT STARTS WITH OUR CANDIDATE. KAMALA HARRIS PERRY AT [CHEERS AND APPLAUSE] FROM HER FIRST DAY AS A PROSECUTOR, AS A DISTRICT ATTORNEY, AS AN ATTORNEY GENERAL, AS UNITED STATES SENATOR, AND IN OUR VICE PRESIDENT SHE HAS FOUGHT ON THE SIDE OF THE AMERICAN PEOPLE. SHE HAS TAKEN ON THE PREDATORS AND FRAUDSTERS. SHE HAS TAKEN DOWN THE TRANSNATIONAL GANGS AND SHE STOOD UP TO POWERFUL CORPORATE INTERESTS. SHE HAS NEVER HESITATED TO REACH ACROSS THE AISLE IF IT MEANT IMPROVING YOUR LIVES AND SHE HAS ALWAYS DONE IT. WITH ENERGY, WITH PASSION, AND WITH JOY. [CHEERS AND APPLAUSE] FOLKS, WE HAVE A CHANCE TO MAKE KAMALA HARRIS THE NEXT PRESIDENT OF THE UNITED STATES. [CHEERS AND APPLAUSE] BUT I THINK WE OWE IT TO THE AMERICAN PEOPLE TO TELL THEM EXACTLY WHAT SHE WOULD DO AS PRESIDENT BEFORE WE ASK THEM FOR THEIR VOTES. THIS IS THE PART. SEND IT TO YOUR UNDECIDED RELATIVES SO THEY KNOW. IF YOUR MIDDLE-CLASS FAMILY OR A FAMILY TRYING TO GET IN THE MIDDLE CLASS, KAMALA HARRIS IS GOING TO CUT YOUR TAXES. IF YOU ARE GETTING SQUEEZED BY PRESCRIPTION DRUG PRICES, KAMALA HARRIS IS GOING TO TAKE ON BIG PHARMA PERRY AT IF YOU'RE HOPING TO BUY A HOME, HARRIS IS GOING TO HELP MAKE IT MORE AFFORDABLE. AND NO MATTER WHO YOU ARE, KAMALA HARRIS IS GOING TO STAND UP AND FIGHT FOR YOUR FREEDOM TO LIVE THE LIFE THAT YOU WANT TO LEAD. BECAUSE THAT IS WHAT WE WANT FOR OURSELVES AND IT IS WHAT WE WANT FOR OUR NEIGHBORS. [CHEERS AND APPLAUSE] YOU NOTE, YOU MIGHT NOT KNOW IT, BUT HAVE NOT GIVEN A LOT OF BIG SPEECHES LIKE THIS. BUT I'VE GIVEN A LOT OF PEP TALKS. SO, LET ME FINISH WITH THIS, TEAM. IT IS THE FOURTH QUARTER. WE ARE DOWN A FIELD GOAL, BUT WE ARE ON OFFENSE AND WE HAVE GOT THE BALL. WE ARE DRIVING DOWN THE FIELD. AND BOY, DO WE HAVE THE RIGHT TEAM. KAMALA HARRIS IS TOUGH. KAMALA HARRIS IS EXPERIENCED IN KAMALA HARRIS IS READY. OUR JOB -- OUR JOB, OUR JOB FOR EVERYONE WATCHING IS TO GET IN THE TRENCHES AND DUE TO BLOCKING AND TACKLING. 1 INCH AT A TIME. 1 YARD AT A TIME. ONE PHONE CALL AT A TIME. ONE DOOR KNOCK AT A TIME. ONE $5 DONATION AT A TIME. [CHEERS AND APPLAUSE] LOOK, WE HAVE GOT 76 DAYS. THAT IS NOTHING. THERE WILL BE TIME TO SLEEP WHEN YOU ARE DEAD. WE WILL LEAVE IT ON THE FIELD. THAT IS HOW WE WILL KEEP MOVING FORWARD. THAT IS HOW WE WILL TURN THE PAGE ON DONALD TRUMP. THAT IS HOW WE WILL BUILD A COUNTRY WHERE WORKERS COME FIRST. HEALTH CARE AND ARE HUMAN RI RIGHTS. AND THE GOVERNMENT STAYS THE HELL OUT OF YOUR BEDROOM. THAT IS HOW WE MAKE AMERICA A PLACE WHERE NO CHILD IS LEFT HUNGRY, WHERE NO COMMUNITY IS LEFT BEHIND, WHERE NOBODY GETS TOLD THEY DON'T BELONG. THAT IS HOW WE ARE GOING TO FIGHT AND AS THE NEXT PRESIDENT OF THE UNITED STATES ALWAYS SAYS: WHEN WE FIGHT, WE WIN. WHEN WE FIGHT? WHEN WE FIGHT? THANK YOU. GOD BLESS.

AND REACH WITH AVERAGE AMERICANS BECAUSE HE COMES OFF AS AN AVERAGE AMERICAN. HE IS THAT DAD AND PLAID. WE SAW HIS FAMILY SOBBING OUT MOMENTS, CHEERING. HARD NOT DRAFT UP ON YOUR HEARTSTRINGS A LITTLE BIT. HE HAS THAT ABILITY TO CUT THROUGH A LOT OF THAT POLITICAL RHETORIC. IT SO MUCH TALK OF THIS CONVENTION OF UNITY, JOY, AND FREEDOM. HE TALKED ABOUT SCHOOL LUNCHES. HE IS TALK ABOUT MEDICAL DEPTH AND INFERTILITY STRUGGLES, AND THINGS WHILE POLITICS IS ABOUT SO MUCH AND ALEXIS IS ABOUT SO MUCH. THESE ARE THE ISSUES THAT FAMILIES WERE ABOUT AT THE END OF THE DAY WHEN YOU'RE THINKING ABOUT HOW A PRESIDENT WILL REALLY IMPACT THEIR LIFE AND THEIR FAMILY. HE ALSO HAD TO INTRODUCE HIMSELF TO THE AMERICAN PEOPLE. THERE'S LIKE 15 DAYS AGO, HE GOT THIS ASSIGNMENT. NO AMERICANS HAD NO IDEA WHO HE WAS SO HE HAD TO COME OUT AND SHOW WHO YEARS AND MAKE THE CASE THAT HE CARES ABOUT THE ISSUES THAT MATTER TO THEM AND THAT THIS TICKET WILL DO THAT TOO. >> HE SAID THAT THEY WERE BANISHING WHILE OTHER SCHOOLS -- HUNGER IN HIS SCHOOL. >> HE WAS THE ONE WHO COINED THAT TAGLINE. >> I'M WITH YOU. I DON'T THINK HE NEEDED THE TELEPROMPTER. DID SEEM TO BE WHETHER YOU ARE FORCED POLITICS OR NOT. CERTAINLY FROM THE HEART. ALWAYS APPRECIATE YOU ALL JOINING AND STAYING UP LATE. THANK YOU SO MUCH. NOW I'M GOING TO GO OVER TO ABC WASHINGTON RICK KLEIN WHO STAYED UP LATE WITH US AS WELL. ONCE AGAIN THAT YOU HAD A FRONT ROW SEAT. BEST SEAT IN THE HOUSE. TELL US WHAT HAS BEEN THE MOOD AND THEME OF THE NIGHT ON NIGHT THREE OF THE DEMOCRATIC NATIONAL CONVENTION? SPEAK AT THE MINNESOTA DELEGATION THE STILL PARTYING. THIS NIGHT IS NOT OVER. THEY ARE STILL CHANTING. THEY HAVE GOT THEIR CUT OUT GIANT HEAD OF TIM WALZ. COACH WALZ SIGN. I ASKED THE DNC CHAIR WHAT HE THOUGHT OF THE NIGHT. I WILL HAVE TO REENACT IT FOR YOU. HE DID A BATTING STANCE. I THINK A LOT OF DEMOCRATS ARE THRILLED WITH THIS AND THE SPORTS METAPHORS ARE EVERYWHERE. A LOT OF EXCITEMENT ABOUT THAT AND THE IDEA THAT THAT MESSAGE CAN RESONATE FAR BEYOND THE WALLS OF THIS BUILDING THAT SEEN A LOT OF WINNING OVER THE YEARS. >> MVP. THAT WAS NOT LOST ON MOST TWO HEARD IT. MY NEXT QUESTION I THINK IT'S PRETTY APPARENT, DID GOVERNOR WALZ DO WHAT HE NEEDED TO DO WITH THAT SPEECH TONIGHT. I THINK IT IS CLEAR FROM THE CHANCE THAT WE'RE STILL HERE AND THAT PERHAPS HE DID. >> CERTAINLY FOR ENERGIZING THE DEMOCRATIC BASE. THE BATTLEGROUND STATE POLLING HAS A LEAD FOR THE HARRIS/WALZ TICKET MOST OF THE BATTLEGROUND STATES. IT IS A TIGHT ONE. TAKE A LOOK AT THE MIDWEST. WE ARE IN THE STATE OF ILLINOIS. GOVERNOR WALZ IS FROM THE STATE OF MINNESOTA. IF THAT'S THE KIND OF LEAD THAT THE CAMPAIGN CAN BUILD ON AND THEY WILL WIN THE ELECTION. THAT IS HOW THE ELECTORAL COLLEGE WORKS. WILL BE A LOT OF PEOPLE EXCITED ABOUT THIS AND PICTURES OF THE WALZ FAMILY -- MYSELF I CAN UNDERSTAND THAT COMMUNITY. ETIQUETTE RESONATES WITH A LOT OF PEOPLE. THEY FEEL LIKE THIS IS SOMEBODY THEY CAN RECOGNIZE IN THE FAMILY OR THE COMMUNITIES. >> DEMOCRATS REALLY SEEM TO BE TRYING TO REDEFINE THE FREEDOM AND PATRIOTISM. HOW DO YOU THINK THAT PLAYED OUT TONIGHT? SPEAK I THINK THAT IT'S A FASCINATING EME OF THIS CONVENTION. THOSE ARE THINGS -- THE NUMBER OF SIGNS THAT SAY USA. THE CHANCE AROUND FREEDOM. BOTH OF THOSE THEMES ARE IMPORTANT ONES. IT SHOWS THE POTENCY OF THE MESSAGE OF THIS TICKET AND OF THESE TO COPE MIDDLE-CLASS KIDS FROM DIFFERENT PARTS OF THE COUNTRY. THE FACT THAT THEY ARE ON THE FLOOR NOW. USUALLY WHEN THESE CONVENTIONS ARE OVER EVIL CANNOT WAIT TO GET OUT BECAUSE THEIR PARTIES TO GO TO. NOT SO TONIGHT. THERE'S LIKE A PARTY'S RIGHT HERE IN THE UNITED CENTER. >> WHAT ARE YOU GOING TO BE LOOKING FOR TOMORROW NIGHT ON THE FINAL NIGHT OF THE DNC? >> IT IS HARD TO TOP THE CELEBRITY BETWEEN THE OBAMA AND OPRAH. AND IT HAD BIG SURPRISES WILL BE VERY MUCH WELCOME BY THE FOLKS HERE AND IT IS KAMALA HARRIS' MOMENT. HER VOICE HAS BEEN HEARD A COUPLE OF TIMES INSIDE OF THIS HALL. THE THEME OF JOY -- JUST TALKED ABOUT SO MUCH. THIS IS STILL SOMEONE WHO WAS UP UNTIL A FEW WEEKS AGO A RATHER UNPOPULAR POLITICIAN. SHE STILL IN THE INTRODUCTORY PHASE. ALLOW POLICY TO GET FIGURED OUT. CERTAINLY THE HOPE AMONG DEMOCRATS HERE IS TO GET SOME SIGNIFICANT MOMENTUM OF WHAT HAS BEEN A REALLY WELL RUN A COUPLE OF DAYS WITH A LOT OF HIGHLIGHTS FOR THE PEOPLE WHO ARE AMONG THE PARTY FAITHFUL. >> OUR THANKS TO YOU AS ALWAYS AND WITH LESS ANOTHER TIME, PERHAPS LAST TIME, TERRY MORAN, A LITTLE MORE THAN TWO WEEKS AGO A FEW PEOPLE OUTSIDE MINNESOTA KNEW WHO TIM WALZ WAS. MAYBE THAT LACK OF NATIONAL EXPERIENCE IS NOT UNCOMMON AMONG VP PICKS, BUT HOW DO YOU THINK THAT WALZ IS HELPING THIS TICKET? >> IN SO MANY WAYS. THEY KNEW WHO HE WAS. THEY ARE STILL PARTYING. MINNESOTA ARE NOT KNOWN FOR THE ROWDINESS. LET'S PUT IT THAT WAY. THEY ARE STATIC ABOUT WHAT HE DID. WHAT THEY DID FOR THE PARTY. A SEVERAL THINGS. BIOGRAPHY. HE IS A MIDWESTERN DAD. FOOTBALL COACH. GREW UP IN A SMALL TOWN. ALL OF THOSE AREAS THAT DEMOCRATS HAVE BEEN STRUGGLING TO REACH. THOSE SECTORS OF THE ELECTORATE. TIM WALZ IS A NATURAL. THAT IS SO YES. GEOGRAPHY. HE IS A MIDWESTERNER. HE COMBINES WHAT THOSE OF US FROM MIDWEST THINK ARE THE VIRTUES OF LATE ERNEST AND NEIGHBORING THESE. KEY VALUE END TIM WALZ POLITICS. THOSE THINGS TOGETHER ARE TRYING TO MAKE AN ARGUMENT FOR DEMOCRATS THAT THEY HAVE THE CENTER. THEY ARE THE CENTER. COUNTRY CENTER VALUES AND THAT IT IS TRUMP AND VANCE WHO REPRESENT A DEPARTURE. THAT IS WHAT I THINK HE CAN BRING TO A TICKET WHICH IS HEADED BY CALIFORNIAN. HE BALANCES THE TICKET LIKE EVERY VICE PRESIDENT CANDIDATE SHOULD. >> BILL CLINTON WHO SPOKE THIS EVENING AS WELL. YOU COVERED HIS PRESIDENCY AND ESPECIALLY IN THE LATE 90s. HOW'S THE DEMOCRATIC PARTY EVOLVED SINCE THEN? >> IT IS SO DIFFERENT. HE WON A BUNCH OF SOUTHERN STATES. WHITE WORKING-CLASS POETS. VOTERS WHO DO NOT GO TO COLLEGE FOR MANY, MANY YEARS. BARACK OBAMA WON SOME OF THEM BACK. BILL CLINTON DID HOWEVER DO SOMETHING THAT KAMALA HARRIS AND TIM WALZ WANT TO DO. HE TRIED TO CAPTURE THE CENTER FOR THE COST OF PROGRESSIVE POLITICS. BILL CLINTON DID SOME THINGS THAT DEMOCRATS WILL NOT FORGET IN MANY WAYS. HE DID ALSO SOME BIG THINGS ON GLOBALIZATION WHICH PROBABLY HELPED LEAD TO THE DONALD TRUMP MOMENTS. THE TALENT THAT BILL CLINTON HAD. THAT KNACK HE HAD FOR BRINGING PEOPLE INTO WHAT HE SAID, "BRIDGE TO A FUTURE. WAS QUITE DIFFERENT WAY OF THINKING ABOUT THE ECONOMY. ABOUT SOCIAL ISSUES AS WELL. HE HAD THAT PHRASE THAT HE USED IT TO DEFEND THE LEGALIZATION OF ABORTION. AND HIS VIEWS SHOULD BE SAFE. THAT TALENT IS WHAT THEY ARE TRYING TO CAPTURE AGAIN. REACHED THE MIDDLE, BUT DO NOT GIVE UP ON PROGRESSIVE POLITICS. >> WHAT YOU THINK A NUMBER OF THE SPEAKERS HAVE REALLY BEEN TRYING TO EMPHASIZE THE IDEA, WE ARE JUST LIKE YOU. WE ARE WORKING CLASS. WE ARE NOT THE BILL IN THEIR CLASS. FROM YOUR VANTAGE POINT WHEN YOU TALK INTO THE DELICATES AND YOU SEE THE REACTION. THIS IS SEEM TO BE RESONATING? IS A REAL RELATABILITY FACTOR? >> SURE. A LOT OF THESE DELEGATES. THESE ARE THE POLITICAL FOLKS IN EVERY NEIGHBORHOOD AROUND THE COUNTRY THAT KEEPS DEMOCRATIC PARTY GOING. FROM THE MIDWEST. MINNESOTA. WISCONSIN, HOME STATE OF ILLINOIS. PEOPLE ARE KIND OF UPSET. VERY UPSET. THEY BELIEVE THE DEMOCRATIC PARTY IS BEING CARICATURED BY THE REPUBLICAN PARTY. THERE IS A CARTOON VERSION OF THE DEMOCRATS THAT IT IS OUT OF TOUCH WITH WEIRD IDEAS. REPUBLICANS WILL SAY THEY HAVE EARNED THAT. DEMOCRATS, NO, WE ARE THE MAIN STREAM, WE ARE THE WORKING CLASS, MIDDLE-CLASS AMERICA. WHETHER OR NOT THAT IS GOING TO PERSUADE THOSE VOTERS IN THE MIDDLE WHO CONTROLLED THE SELECTION REMAINS TO BE SEEN. IT ALL DEPENDS ON HOW KAMALA HARRIS REACHES OUT TO THEM. WHAT THEY MAKE OF HER AND HER PLANS THAT CAN MAKE THEIR LIVES BETTER. >> TERRY, COMPARE AND CONTRAST. YOU ARE ON THE FLOOR LAST MONTH FOR THE RNC CROWD AND NOW THIS WEEK YOU ARE ON THE FLOOR FOR THE DNC CROWD. IS THERE A BIG DIFFERENCE YOU ARE NOTICING? >> IT IS A HUGE DIFFERENCE. GREAT SPIRIT, GREAT ENERGY, GREAT EMOTION AND BOTH CONVENTIONS, BUT THE REPUBLICAN CONVENTION TRUMP HAD JUST BEEN SHOT. EVERYONE WAS SHAKEN. HE HAD ALSO RISEN FROM THAT ATTEMPTED ASSASSINATION. THAT ASTONISHING MOMENT WHERE HE RAISES HIS FIST AND TELL PEOPLE TO FIGHT. THE UNBELIEVABLE FEROCITY OF CHARACTER AND PRESENCE OF MIND TO DO THAT, AT THE SAME TIME JOE BIDEN WAS SINKING IN THE POLL BECAUSE OF HIS PERFORMANCE IN THAT DEBATE. THEY FELT THE MAIN EMOTION WAS PRIDE. HERE IT IS JOY. THERE IS DESOLATION, RELIEF THAT THEY DO NOT HAVE TO -- THAT MANY DEMOCRAT POLL SHOWED WERE NOT SATISFIED WITH JOE BIDEN. AND HERE THEY FEEL THAT THEY HAVE THE TOMORROW. THE TICKET AND THE POLICIES FOR TOMORROW. THAT IS GOING TO BE THERE ARGUMENT. AMERICA IS A TOMORROW COUNTRY AND THEY ARE HOPEFUL. BOTH SIDES KNOW IT IS GOING TO BE A DARK FIGHT. >> THREE NIGHTS DOWN AND ONE MORE TO GO. WE HAVE BEEN GOING ALONG WITH THE SPORTS ANALOGIES. DO YOU FEEL SO FAR THAT THE DNC HAS FOLLOWED THE PLAYBOOK, IF YOU WILL COME OR ENDING UP THAT SURPRISE YOU? >> DEMOCRATS WENT LATE, JUST LIKE THEY OFTEN DO, AND I THINK SOME PEOPLE MISSED WALZ SPEECH. MY WIFE HAD TO GO TO BED. KIDS TO GET UP IN THE MORNING AND GO TO SCHOOL. DEMOCRATS ARE TYPICALLY RUN A LITTLE BIT MORE LATE. THAT MIGHT HAVE BEEN A UNFORCED ERROR TONIGHT. REALLY, YOU CAN ASK FOR A BETTER SET UP FOR KAMALA HARRIS. NOW IT IS HER JOB. YOU MIGHT SAY THAT CONVENTION HAS DONE THEIR JOB. WE HAD HEARD A BALL AND SEE WHAT SHE CAN DO TOMORROW NIGHT TO REALLY CLARIFY WHO SHE IS, WHO SHE STANDS FOR, AND FIGHTS FOR. WHAT SHE BELIEVES IN AND WHAT SHE WILL DO FOR AMERICANS. IT IS A BIG DEMAND ON HER, BUT IT IS WHAT EVERY CANDIDATE FACES IN AMERICA. AMERICA WILL BE TUNING IN. >> OUR THANKS TO YOU AS ALWAYS. WE ARE JOINED NOW BY IAN SAMS. NATIONAL SPOKESPERSON FOR THE HARRIS CAMPAIGN. THANK YOU SO MUCH FOR YOUR TIME. WELL, YOU CANNOT BE UNHAPPY ABOUT THIS. THEY ARE STILL CHANTING DOWN ON THE FLOOR OF THE CONVENTION. GIVE US YOUR SENTIMENTS AND YOUR THOUGHTS OF TONIGHT? SPEAK I THINK THE AMERICAN PEOPLE GOT TO MEET TIM WALZ FOR FIRST TIME. SOMEONE WHO THE VICE PRESIDENT CHOSE IN LARGE PART BECAUSE OF THEIR WARM PERSONAL RELATIONSHIP AND HOW IMPRESSED SHE WAS WITH BOTH HIS PERSONAL STORY AND GOVERNING SUCCESSES. I THINK TONIGHT WHEN YOU HEAR HIS PERSONAL STORY IT IS SO COMPELLING AND POWERFUL. TO TALK ABOUT BEING IN A MILITARY FAMILY AND ENLISTING INTO A YOUNG AGE. TALK ABOUT BEING A SCHOOLTEACHER, FOOTBALL COACH. THESE ARE THINGS THAT EVERY AMERICAN CAN RELATE TO. PEOPLE KNOW PEOPLE LIKE TIM WALZ AND THEIR NEIGHBORHOOD, COMMUNITIES, FAMILIES. BY SELECTING HIM, I THINK PEOPLE SAW TONIGHT EXACTLY WHAT HE BRINGS TO THE TICKETS. HE BRINGS AN ABILITY TO REACH OUT TO PEOPLE OF ALL WALKS OF LIFE FROM ALL CORNERS OF THE COUNTRY AND OFFER THEM SOMETHING THAT THEY CAN SEE IN THEMSELVES. A CANDIDATE WHO REFLECTS THEIR VALUES AND IS SPEAKING THEIR LANGUAGE. I THINK WE WILL SEE THAT AGAIN TOMORROW NIGHT WHEN THE VICE PRESIDENT SPEAKS. TONIGHT IT WAS ABOUT THE GOVERNOR INTRODUCING HIMSELF TO THE AMERICAN PEOPLE. TELLING PEOPLE A LITTLE BIT ABOUT HIS BACKGROUND AND STORY. AND I THINK SPEAKING REALLY POWERFULLY ABOUT WHAT THE MOST FUNDAMENTAL ISSUE AT STAKE AT THE SELECTION IS, PEOPLE'S FREEDOMS. PEOPLE'S FREEDOMS TO MAKE THEIR OWN ECONOMIC CHOICES. HEALTH CARE CHOICES. AS HE SAYS, "STAYING OUT OF PEOPLE'S BUSINESS WHEN THERE IS NOT THEIR BUSINESS AND BUTTING IN." THAT IS SOMETHING THOUGH SO CRITICAL IN THE SELECTION. SOMETHING THAT THE VICE PRESIDENT HAS BEEN TALKED ABOUT FOR SEVERAL YEARS NOW. THE THREAT THAT WE ARE SEEING FROM DONALD TRUMP AND THE RIGHT WHEN IT COMES TO THE PROJECT 2025 AGENDA TO TAKE AWAY PEOPLE'S FREEDOMS. YOU HEARD GOVERNOR AND COACH WALZ TALK ABOUT THAT TONIGHT IN A WAY THAT A LOT OF AMERICANS CAN REALLY RESONATE WITH. >> WE CAN SEE THAT IT IS RESONATING HERE INSIDE THE ARENA WITH THE DIEHARDS, THE TRUE DEMOCRATIC BASE. BEYOND THIS ARENA, WHEN YOU'RE TALKING ABOUT KEY BATTLEGROUND STATES, THE INDEPENDENT VOTERS, THE SWING VOTERS ARE THERE. DO YOU THINK IT IS LIKELY TO RESONATE THAT MESSAGE WITH THEM? >> ABSOLUTELY. I THINK OUR JOB -- A CONVENTION IS A INTERESTING THING. WE ARE HERE AND WATCHING IT IN THE ROOM. YOU CAN SEE THE THOUSANDS OF EXCITED PEOPLE. OUR JOB IS TO HARNESS THE ENERGY AND TURN IT INTO ACTION. YOU HEARD MICHELLE BOWMAN TALK ABOUT THIS LAST NIGHT. DON'T JUST LISTEN AND ENJOY IT AND BE ON YOUR PHONES, GO DO SOMETHING. OUR JOB NOW IS TO TAKE THE ENERGY AND ENTHUSIASM THAT WE ARE SEEING IN THIS ROOM. THAT YOU ARE HEARING FROM GOVERNOR WALLACE. GOING TO LIVING ROOMS ACROSS HIS COUNTRY AND TURN IT INTO SIGN-UPS. PEOPLE WHO ARE GOAL WILLING -- THAT IS WHAT OUR JOB IS AS A CAMPAIGN IS TO HARNESS THIS SORT OF ENERGY THAT YOU'RE SEEING AMONG DEMOCRATS AND TURN IT INTO SOMETHING BIGGER. WHERE DOES DEMOCRATS. FRIENDS AND FAMILY CAN TALK YOU HEAR HIM TALK ABOUT BEING IN THE CLASSROOM EVERY DAY AND TRYING TO WRANGLE KNUCKLEHEAD TEENAGERS TO DO SOMETHING. THAT IS SOMEONE THAT EVERYBODY UNDERSTANDS. AND WHEN HE IS TALKING ABOUT THE MESSAGE OF HIS TICKET. THE MESSAGE THAT VICE PRESIDENT AND GOVERNOR WALZ -- WHO ARE WE STANDING UP FOR. ARE WE STANDING UP FOR YOU WHEN YOU'RE TRYING TO SCRAPE BY AND AFFORD YOUR GROCERIES, OR ARE WE STANDING UP FOR OURSELVES WHEN WE POST IN THE MIDDLE OF THE DAY ON SOCIAL MEDIA ABOUT ELECTRIC SHARKS OR WHATEVER DONALD TRUMP IS DOING THESE DAYS. THAT IS WHAT HE IS ABLE TO EXPLAIN AND WITH THE VICE PRESIDENT IS OUT THERE TO TRY TO CRYSTALLIZED THE CHOICE IN THE ELECTION. I THINK WE CAN TURN THE ENERGY THAT WE SING HERE AND HAVE BEEN SEEN ACROSS THE COUNTRY INTO REAL ACTION TO BUILD MOMENTUM GOING INTO NOVEMBER. NOVEMBER. >> WE HEARD FROM DOUG EMHOFF DOUG EMHOFF DESCRIBING KAMALA HARRIS AS A JOYFUL WARRIOR. THE THEME OF JOY KEPT COMING UP TONIGHT AND IN THE RECENT DAYS WE HEARD THE IDEA OF PASSING THE TORCH, OF THE NEW CHAPTER, OF A NEW DAWN. WHAT KIND OF MESSAGE CAN WE EXPECT TO HEAR FROM KAMALA HARRIS TOMORROW NIGHT? SPEAK OUT SHE'S BEEN TALKING ABOUT OUTLINING A NEW WAY FORWARD FOR AMERICA. I THINK THERE IS SOMETHING. MICHELLE OBAMA TOUCHED ON THIS LAST NIGHT AND WHAT SHE TALKED ABOUT. SO MANY PEOPLE IN THE COUNTRY HAVE BEEN HOLDING IN THIS PENT UP ENERGY AND ANXIETY ABOUT THE STATE OF THE COUNTRY. PEOPLE ARE WORRIED ABOUT THE FUTURE. PEOPLE ARE ALARMED BY WHAT PRESIDENT TRUMP REPRESENTS. AND I THINK WHAT THE VICE PRESIDENT DOES THIS INSTEAD OF BEING DOOM AND GLOOM SHE'S TALKED ABOUT OPPORTUNITIES. WE CAN MOVE PAST THAT. WE CAN MOVE INTO THE FUTURE. WE CAN LEAVE THE PAST BEHIND AND HAVE A MORE POSITIVE COMMUNITY ORIENTED MISSION OF THE COUNTRY. I THINK YOU HEAR THAT FROM SOMEBODY LIKE GOVERNOR WALZ WHO COMES NOT OUT OF POLITICS, BUT WAS A SCHOOLTEACHER, A COACH. HAS BEEN WITH FAMILIES AND THE BEST TIMES, WORST TIMES. WHEN YOU'RE TRYING TO MOLD YOUNG LIVES. THESE ARE PEOPLE WHO UNDERSTAND REGULAR PEOPLE AND THEY BRING TO IT THE JOY THAT YOU ARE TALKING ABOUT. IT IS BECAUSE THEY BELIEVE IN THE POSSIBILITY OF THE COUNTRY. I THINK THE VICE PRESIDENT TOMORROW NIGHT WHEN SHE SPEAKS TO THE ARENA AND TO THE NATION, EXCEPTING DENOMINATION, IS GOING TO TALK ABOUT HER REAL BELIEF IN THIS COUNTRY THAT IS ALREADY POSSIBLE IN AMERICA. GOVERNOR WALZ'S STORY IS ONLY POSSIBLE IN AMERICA. AND IF WE ALL JUST BELIEF IN WE CAN BE AGAIN, AND GETS EXCITED, AND BE HAPPY PUSHING BACK AGAINST THREATS TO OUR FREEDOM, AND PUSHING BACK AGAINST DANGERS THAT WE FACE, DO IT IN A WAY THAT BRINGS ENERGY AND EXCITEMENT WITH A BELIEF IN WHAT WE CAN BE. THAT IS WHY I THINK IS WHAT SHE IS HARNESSING AND GOVERNOR WALZ AS WE TAKE THE MESSAGE TO THE AMERICAN PEOPLE. >> WE ARE EXPECTING TO HEAR ON J.D. VANCE IN JUST A LITTLE BIT ON THE SHOW TONIGHT. EARLIER TODAY HE TALKED ABOUT IN REGARDS TO THE FIRST FEW NIGHTS OF THE DEMOCRATIC NATIONAL COMMITTEE END. HE SAID WHAT YOU HEAR FROM THEM AS MORE OF A HATE FOR DONALD TRUMP THAN A LOVE OF COUNTRY. YOUR RESPONSE TO THAT? >> HE MUST BE WATCHING SOMETHING ELSE. I DON'T KNOW WHAT HE IS WATCHING THAT IS WASTING. WE HAVE A FOOTBALL TEAM OUT HERE WITH GOVERNOR WALZ TALK ABOUT HIS BACKGROUND AND HIS LIFE, HIS VISION FOR AMERICA, AND WHAT IS BELIEF IN AMERICA IS. HE MUST BE WATCHING SOME OTHER CHANNEL. YOU CAN ASK HIM AND SEE IF HE WAS MAY BE TUNED INTO SOMETHING DARKER AND SCARIER LIKE HOUSE OF THE DRAGON OR SOMETHING. THAT IS NOT WHAT WE ARE SEEING IN THIS HALL. WE ARE SEEING A REAL OUTLINE OF AN AGENDA FOR THIS COUNTRY THAT WILL IMPROVE PEOPLE'S LIVES. YOU SEE EXCITEMENT AND ENERGY. SEEING THEM BE ALL JOYFUL IF THE COUNTRY WE CAN BE. THAT INCLUDES PUSHING BACK ON SOME OF THE DANGEROUS IDEAS THAT J.D. VANCE A DONALD TRUMP ARE PROPOSING IN THE PROJECT 2025 AGENDA. ABORABORTION BANS NATIONWIDE. ECONOMIC PLANS THAT ARE GOING TO INCREASE TAXES ON THE MIDDLE CLASS BY THOUSANDS OF DOLLARS THAT CAN CREATE 2 MILLION LESS JOBS THAN OUR PLAN. IN THE PENNY ECONOMIST HAVE FOUND. THESE ARE BANNING BOOKS. THESE ARE THINGS THAT YOU'RE SEEING FROM THE FAR RIGHT IN THIS COUNTRY THAT THEY ARE EMBRACING. I THINK THAT IS THE DARKNESS, THE NEGATIVITY THAT WE SEE. OUR JOB AND A VICE PRESIDENT DOES THIS AND GOVERNOR WALZ. THEY PUSH BACK ON THAT. THEY PUSH BACK BY SAYING, THAT IS NOT WHO WE ARE. WE ARE BIGGER COUNTRY DID NOT. WE BELIEVE THE POSSIBILITIES, OPPORTUNITIES, FREEDOMS, WE BELIEVE IN PEOPLE STAYING OUT OF OUR BUSINESS. THAT IS WHAT WE ARE AS A COUNTRY. I DO NOT THINK THAT IS A DARK PATIENT. I THINK THAT IS TELLING THE TRUTH ABOUT WHERE WE ARE AS A COUNTRY RIGHT NOW AND OFFERING A BETTER VISION FOR AMERICA PEOPLE. >> WE HAVE 30 SECONDS BEFORE WE HAVE TO GO TO BREAK IT THERE HAS BEEN A LOT OF CRITICISM AS YOU'RE WELL AWARE THAT KAMALA HARRIS HAS NOT SAT DOWN AND ON A SITDOWN INTERVIEW. SHE HAS NOT DONE A PRESS CONFERENCE. DONALD TRUMP IN PARTICULAR -- DOES NOT WANT TO FACE HER RECORD. SPEAK OUT DONALD TRUMP DID A TWO HOUR RAMBLE FEST WITH ELON MUSK WITH SOME BROKEN TECHNOLOGY. I GUESS THAT COUNTS WERE INTERVIEWED THESE DAYS. THE VICE PRESIDENT SAYS SHE'S GOING TO DO A INTERVIEWED BY THE END OF THE MONTH. END OF NEXT WEEK. EXPECTING SHE WILL DO THAT SOON. SHE IS TAKING QUESTIONS FROM REPORTERS ON THE CAMPAIGN TRAIL MULTIPLE TIMES SINCE SHE HAS BEEN THE NOMINEE. SHE'S HAPPY TO ENGAGE WITH THE PRESS. WE ARE HAPPY. SHE WILL DEFINITELY SIT DOWN FOR A INTERVIEW. >> WE APPRECIATE YOU SENDING THE NEXT UP LATE WITH US. SPOKESPERSON FRED HARRIS CAMPAIGN. A SPECIAL COVERAGE FROM CHICAGO. AT NIGHT THREE OF DEMOCRATIC NATIONAL COMMITTEE AND CONTINUES RIGHT AFTER THIS. STAY WITH US Donald Trump. We will soon be a great nation. Again, Kamala Harris historic the ABC News presidential debate moderated by David Muir and Lindsey Davis Tuesday, September 10th live on ABC and streaming on ABC News live Pulu and Disney plus the ABC News presidential debate. Baywatch is a fantasy be watch the sexy Baywatch was the number one show in the world when you hear that theme song how much can I was going to have a meeting that stuff alive it was a wild time and I was a wild chick Jason Momoa exploded common was a bombshell Anderson was an icon Pamela was this sweet girl from Canada. AA who came to get the American dream really proud of everything I've done almost was a whirlwind of epik highs and bitter lows a loof pressure. Everybody was disposable and if you didn't fit into their brand you were gone at last Fame Everyone likes to watch sexy things. Don't cover it so many stories hundreds of them. But this one really stuck with me. Everybody's jaw dropped. No one really believed he was responsible. I did not kill Devon. I've never forgotten my interview with Anthony I speak with him again as a grown man. Why have you decided to talk about this? I kept saying it's not done. There is still an unsolved murder than 20/20 True Crime event special Friday night at 9:00 8:00 Central on ABC It was a regular day for 19 year old Melissa with something terrible had happened to her had several suspects all these kinds of leads of known serial killer in your area. Could he be involved actually finding key evidence that could have slipped through the cracks her last hours on this Earth with horrific this beautiful control police will find out what happened at wit's end the hunt for a killer only on Hulu. >> WELCOME BACK, EVERYONE. WE ARE BACK LIVE ON CHICAGO ON THE BIG NIGHT FOR TIM WALLACE WHO GAVE HIS EXCEPTION SPEECH. ALONG WITH AMANDA WHO WAS FORMERLY WITH THE CLINTON CAMPAIGN. AMANDA, I'M GOING TO GET TO YOU. WITH YOUR REACTION TO FORMER PRESIDENT BILL CLINTON SPEECH AFTER HE RIPPED UP THE FIRST VERSION AND THEN WAS EDITING DOWN TO THE LAST MINUTE. WANT TO TAKE A LISTEN TO HIS PITCH FOR THE HARRIS-XP TEN TICKETS. >> IF YOU VOTE FOR THIS TEAM. IF YOU CAN GET THEM ELECTED, AND LET THEM BRING IN THIS BREATH OF FRESH AIR, YOU WILL BE PROUD OF IT FOR THE REST OF YOUR LIFE. YOUR CHILDREN WILL BE PROUD OF IT. YOUR GRANDCHILDREN WOULD BE PROUD OF IT. >> DID HE DELIVER? >> HE GOT THERE AT THE END. IT TOOK A LITTLE WHILE. THAT MESSAGE REALLY RINGS FOR EVERYONE. IT GAVE EVERYBODY A SEAT AT THE TABLE AT THAT THIS IS A MOMENT WE SHOULD ALL BE THINK ABOUT. >> THERE BEEN A NUMBER OF REPUBLICANS TAKING THE STAGE AT THE DNC INCLUDING GEORGIA LIEUTENANT. MADE A PLEA. A VOTE FOR HARRIS DOES NOT MAKE YOU A DEMOCRAT, AND MAKES YOU A PATRIOT. WITHOUT MESSAGING RESONATE WITH THOSE NIKKI HALEY SUPPORTERS AND INDEPENDENCE? >> I THINK IT WILL RESONATE WITH SOME OF THAT. CERTAINLY THERE WERE SOME OF THE NIKKI HALEY VOTERS WHO ARE PRIMARILY MOTIVATED BY BEING ANTI-TRUMP AND THEY'RE GOING TO BE PRETTY COMFORTABLE VOTING FOR THE DEMOCRATS. I DON'T KNOW THAT IT IS GOING TO MOTIVATE THOSE PEOPLE WHO ARE ACTUALLY UNDECIDED IN THIS ELECTION. THAT IS GOING TO TAKE, I THINK, SOMETHING FROM THE TOP OF THE TICKET, SOMETHING FROM KAMALA HARRIS, NOT JUST FROM SOMEBODY SPEAKING AT THE CONVENTION, BUT FROM THE CANDIDATE HERSELF. >> AMANDA, IT WAS AN EMOTIONAL NIGHT, WATCHING TIM WALZ SON GUS WHO SAID THAT IS MY DAD. SO MUCH HEART AND ENTHUSIASM. YOUR TAKE AWAY FROM HEARING COACH WALZ SPEECH TONIGHT? >> EVERYBODY WAS BAWLING AT THAT POINT. YOU FELT IT. IT WAS IMMEDIATE. WHAT WAS IMPORTANT BUT TONIGHT WAS PEOPLE SAW THEMSELVES AND COACH WALZ. THAT SMALL TOWN KID. I GROW UP IN A SMALL TOWN. THAT COACH. THE COACH WHO HAS COACHED HER KID. I THINK WESTBY THAT MIKE WALZ DID TONIGHT WAS SOMETHING POOR FOR THE DEMOCRATIC PARTY. WE SEE YOU IN RURAL AMERICA. FRIDAY NIGHT WITH YOUR KIDS. THAT'S SOMETHING WE HAVE DONE WELL AS A PARTY. HE HAS DONE IT IN ONE NIGHT. YOU'RE GOING TO SEE THAT FORT REST OF THE CAMPAIGN. IMPORTANT STATING TO WHAT THE DEMOCRATS ARE ABOUT. SPEAK OUT YOUR THOUGHTS AS WALZ HAS BEEN PEPPERED WITH ATTACKS FROM SENATOR J.D. VANCE. YOU THINK THOSE CONTROVERSIES WILL FOLLOW AFTER TONIGHT SP SPEECH? >> THE WALZ WHO WAS IN CONGRESS DID QUITE WELL IN A RURAL DISTRICT. THE WALZ U.S. BEEN GOVERNOR OF MINNESOTA AND WHO HAS BEEN LIBERATED THAT MIKE LIBERATED BY A DEMOCRATIC -- IN THE CONGRESS. HE HAS NOT DONE PARTICULARLY WELL IN RURAL MINNESOTA. HIS STRENGTH HAS BEEN IN THE TWIN CITIES, JUST AS USUAL FOR A LIBERAL DEMOCRAT. IT WILL BE INTERESTING TO SEE WHETHER THE OLD WALZ MANAGES TO HAVE THIS APPEAL TO RURAL VOTERS, CENTRIST, OR IT IS THE NEW WALZ WITH HIS LEFT WING RECORD WHO PREDOMINATES IN INFORMING VOTER PERCEPTIONS. >> WE THANK YOU BOTH SO MUCH FOR YOUR TIME STAYING UP LATE WITH US TONIGHT. JOINING US NOW IS DONALD TRUMP'S VICE PRESIDENTIAL TAKE OHIO SENATOR J.D. VANCE. SENATOR VANCE WE THANK YOU FOR YOUR TIME TONIGHT. WE JUST HEARD FROM GOVERNOR WALZ. WHEN YOU DO MAKE UP A SPEECH AND WHAT YOU HEARD REALLY SO FAR THIS WEEK? >> I THINK THE CONTRAST REALLY INTERESTING. WHAT DONALD TRUMP AND ARE SAYING IS WE WANT TO DELIVER POLICIES ARE GOING TO LOWER THE COST OF FOOD, THE COST OF GROCERY, THEY COST OF HOUSING AND SECURED THE SOUTHERN BORDER. KAMALA HARRIS CANNOT SAY THAT SHE HAS DELIVERED THOSE RESULTS BECAUSE HER POLICIES HAVE COST EXACTLY THE OPPOSITE. COST RISING PRICES AND A WIDE OPEN SOUTHERN BORDER. AND SET MAKING ARGUMENT THE AMERICAN PEOPLE THAT THEY SHOULD VOTE FOR KAMALA HARRIS BECAUSE HER RECORD IS ONE OF SUCCESS, THEY'RE BASICALLY SAYING, IF YOU WANT TO BOW FOR DONALD TRUMP AND CHANGE, YOU ARE A BAD PERSON. I THINK THAT IS A REALLY DARK MESSAGE TO DELIVER TO THE AMERICAN PEOPLE. IT REALLY IS A BIZARRE CONTRAST WITH THIS THEME OF JOY THE DEMOCRATS ARE TRYING TO ADVANCE. THEY DON'T SOUND ESPECIALLY JOYFUL. THEY SOUND LIKE THEY ARE ATTACKING THEIR POLITICAL OPPONENTS AND THE PEOPLE WHO VOTE FOR THEM. WE GOT A RECORD TO RUN ON AND AS WHAT WE ARE TRYING TO DELIVER. >> THROUGHOUT HIS SPEECH TONIGHT, GOVERNOR WALZ PLAYED UP HIS TIME AS A FORMER HIGH SCHOOL FOOTBALL COACH. HE ALSO MENTIONED PROJECT 2025. AT ONE POINT HE SAID A REFERENCE TO THAT. "WHEN SOMEBODY TAKES THE TIME TO DROP A PLAYBOOK, THEY'RE GOING TO USE IT." CURIOUS TO GET YOUR RESPONSE. >> I WAS NOT TOTALLY SURE WHAT HE WAS ACTUALLY TALK ABOUT. OUR PLAYBOOK IS SIMPLE TO REMIND THE AMERICAN PEOPLE THAT DONALD TRUMP DELIVERED PEACE AND PROSPERITY. HE WAS THE PRESIDENT OF RISING WAGES FOR MIDDLE-CLASS, AND FALLING PRICES. HE WAS THE PRESIDENT OF PEACE ALL OVER THE WORLD. KAMALA HARRIS HAS BEEN THE VICE PRESIDENT OF CHAOS ALL OVER THE WORLD AND RISING PRICES FOR AMERICANS HERE AT HOME. I THINK THAT OUR PLAYBOOK IS REALLY SIMPLE. THE TOLD THE AMERICAN PEOPLE THE TRUTH AND TO REMIND THEM THAT THEY SHOULD BE ELECTING LEADERS WHO HAVE A VISION FOR HOW TO MAKE THEIR LIVES BETTER. ONE OF THE INTERESTING THING ABOUT TIM WALLACE'S SPEECH IS THAT HE TALKED A LOT ABOUT WHAT KAMALA HARRIS WOULD DO, WHAT, HAS WILL PLAN TO DO. KAMALA HARRIS HAS BEEN THE BROOKE VICE PRESIDENT FOR THREE AND A HALF YEARS AND SHE HAS NOT DONE ANY OF IT. WHAT SHE HAS DONE IS COST A LOT OF SUFFERING AND A LOT OF PROBLEMS FOR THE AMERICAN PEOPLE. DONALD TRUMP AND ARE GOING TO KEEP HIM TALK ABOUT WHAT WE WILL DO. MORE POORLY WHAT DONALD TRUMP ALREADY BECAUSE HE REALLY WORKED FOR A LOT OF AMERICANS. >> HIS POINT AND THAT QUOTE WHEN SOMEBODY TAKES THE TIME TO DROP A PLAYBOOK AND THEY'RE GOING TO USE IT. IT WAS ABOUT PROJECT 2025. WE HEARD A NUMBER OF SPEAKERS HERE REALLY TRY TO ASSOCIATE YOU AND DONALD TRUMP WITH PROJECT 2025. I WANT TO GET YOUR RESPONSE SPECIFICALLY ON THAT ATTEMPT TO CORRELATE THE TWO. >> DONALD TRUMP HAS BEEN VERY CLEAR. I THINK ANY AMERICAN WHETHER THEY AGREE OR DISAGREE OF DONALD TRUMP WILL SAY, DONALD TRUMP SPEAKS FOR HIMSELF. ALL HE SAID ABOUT ROGER 2025 WAS THAT HIS AGENDA IS HIS AGENDA. AND PROJECT .25 HAS NOTHING TO DO WITH HIS CAMPAIGN BECAUSE IT DOES NOT. OUR AGENDA IS SO SIMPLE. IT IS TO FIGHT BACK AGAINST THE CHINESE THEFT OF AMERICAN MANUFACTURING JOBS, DELIVER RISING WAGES FOR AMERICAN WORKERS, SECURE THAT SOUTHERN BORDER SO WE CAN HAVE MORE PUBLIC SAFETY AND FOR PEOPLE DYING OF FENTANYL OVERDOSES IN OUR COUNTRY. THAT IS THE TRUMP AGENDA FOR JANUARY OF 2025. NO ONE SPEAKS FOR DONALD TRUMP AND I THINK THE AMERICAN PEOPLE WHETHER THEY VOTED FOR THEM OR NOT, RECOGNIZE DONALD TRUMP SPEAKS FOR HIMSELF. >> SOURCES TELL "ABC NEWS" THAT RFK JR. IS EXPECTED TO DROP OUT OF THE RACE AND ENDORSE DONALD TRUMP. DOES YOUR CAMPAIGN WILL COME ARE FOR K ENDORSEMENT AND YOU THINK THAT WILL MAKE A BIG DIFFERENCE. PEOPLE WHO ARE GOING TO VOTE FOR RK JR. WILL PERHAPS VOTE FOR YOU AND DONALD TRUMP? SPEAK OFTEN NOT SPOKEN TO RFK SO I DON'T KNOW IF THOSE REPORTS ARE TRUE. I WOULD CERTAINLY WELCOME HIS ENDORSEMENT. I GREW UP IN A FAMILY AND I WAS RAISED BY MY POOR GRANDMOTHER WHO DID NOT HAVE A HIGH SCHOOL DIPLOMA. >> LOOKS LIKE WE JUST LOST SENATOR J.D. VANCE THERE. DONALD TRUMP ACTUALLY WE WANT TO GO TO SELINA WANG. SELENA, IF YOU ARE THERE FOR OUR -- YOU HEARD J.D. VANCE THEY ARE THAT DONALD TRUMP DELIVERED "PEACE AND PROSPERITY." YOU HAVE BEEN TRACKING VICE PRESIDENT, HARRIS. WHILE YOUR FINAL THOUGHTS AS A THIRD DAY OF THE DNC COME TO A CLOSE TO >> THE GOAL WAS NOT JUST TO DEFINE, HARRIS. IT WAS ABOUT DEFINING AMERICA. AMERICA IS A COUNTRY THAT VALUE FREEDOM, INCLUSION, DIVERSITY, AND TRIED TO BECAUSE KAMALA HARRIS IS SOMEBODY WHO EMBODIES THOSE IDEALS. IT WAS THEY ARE TRYING TO CREATE THEREE FIGHT FOR THE FUTURE. THE FIGHT FOR THE MIDDLE CLASS. TO BELIEVE THAT THIS IS A CHOICE THAT IS THE EXACT OPPOSITE OF WHAT J.D. VANCE HAD JUST TOLD YOU. THE ATTACKS HERE WERE A BIT DIFFERENT. THEY FOCUSED ON TRAUMA AS SOMEONE WHO IS ONLY FOCUSED ON HIMSELF. AS YOU HEARD FROM BILL CLINTON. HE SAID THAT TRUMP WOULD BE ABOUT ME AND HARRIS WILL BE ABOUT YOU. THEY REALLY SIMPLIFIED AND CONDENSED IT FROM THIS BIGGER THREAT OF DEMOCRACY. IT IS ABOUT TWO VERY DIFFERENT PEOPLE WITH TWO VERY DIFFERENT VISIONS. THEY ALSO TRY TO REALLY EDUCATE THE AMERICAN PEOPLE ABOUT KAMALA HARRIS' HISTORY. YOU HAVE SEEN THAT THROUGHOUT THESE PAST FEW DAYS. HE SAW THE VIDEO AND SPEECHES ABOUT HARRIS SOMEONE WHO IS A FIGHTER, A PROSECUTOR. IT HELPED BIG COMPANIES AND CORPORATIONS. HE ALSO SAW THE SOFTER SIDE OF HER AND THE APATHETIC SIDE. HE SAW HER RELATIVES TO FAMILY UP ONSTAGE TO TRY TO SHOW WHO SHE IS. THIS IS A SPRINT TO THE ELECTION AND HE SAW GOVERNOR WALZ MAKING A BIG SPLASH. IT IS HARD TO BELIEVE THAT OF JUST A FEW WEEKS AGO MOST AMERICANS DID NOT KNOW WHO GOVERNOR WALZ WAS. HE WAS MAKE AN APPEAL TO A DIFFERENT KIND OF VOTER DUTIES AMERICANS A ROLE -- IN A WAY THAT RESONATES WITH A LAUGH AMERICANS A REALLY BIG CONTRAST AND REACH OUT TO DIFFERENT PEOPLE AND WHO HARRIS WOULD REACH. >> DID NOT BELONG TO TIM WALZ. COACH WALZ. YOU ARE AT THE RALLY IN MILWAUKEE. EXPLAIN THE EMOTION IN THE ROOM AND THESE RALLIES. IS THIS A REAL MOMENTUM. THIS IS SUSTAINABLE. IT'S SOMETHING WE WILL HAVE TO WAIT AND SEE. >> THAT IS WHAT THEY'RE HOPING TO DO IS TO CAPITALIZE AND BUILD OFF OF THIS MOMENTUM. I CAN TELL YOU THAT BEING ON THE FLOOR IT HERE IN THIS CONVENTION AND THIS BIG HALT. YOU REALLY CAN FEEL THE ENERGY. YOU CAN FEEL THE EXCITEMENT AND THE HOPE IN PEOPLE'S EYES. THAT IS THE SAME EMOTION THAT I SEE OUT ON THESE RALLIES. I'VE BEEN SO MUCH SINGLE ONE OF THESE RALLIES SINCE YES ANNOUNCER CAN AND SEE. IT IS A REAL PARTY FIVE. THERE IS A REAL ENERGY HERE. THEY PUMP THE MUSIC. PEOPLE STINK AROUND THE ENTIRE TIME THAT SHE SPEAKS AND THEY WAIT IN LINE FOR HOURS BEFORE DOORS EVEN OPEN INTO THESE ARENAS. THIS IS A REAL MOMENTUM HERE. GOVERNOR WALZ. YOU SEE THAT HE IS IN THIS ELEMENT AND WE ARE STARTING TO SEE WHY HARRIS CHOSE HIM AS RUNNING MATE. HE IS A VERY EFFECTIVE MESSAGE. IT SPEAKS IN A DIFFERENT WAY THAN SHE DOES. IT IS GOING TO BE A TIGHT RACE AS WE TALK ABOUT THE CHALLENGES OF KEEPING UP THIS MOMENTUM. THEY KNOW THEY HAVE A LOT OF WORK TO DO AND THEY CANNOT JUST APPEAL TO THEIR BASE. THE AFTER REACHED REACH DOES INDEPENDENT SWING STATE VOTERS IN THOSE BATTLEGROUNDS. WHAT WAS REALLY INTERESTING IS THAT TONIGHT YOU HAD OPRAH WINFREY WHO IS ONE OF THE MOST FAMOUS WOMEN IN THE WORLD. SHE SAID SHE'S A REGISTERED INDEPENDENT. SHE MADE THE MOST EXPLICIT APPEAL TO THIS INDEPENDENT SWING STATE BUT ARE SAYING, "CHOOSE COMMON SENSE OVER NONSENSE." REDUCED TO A SIMPLE EQUATION.
