>>> TONIGHT ON "THE REIDOUT" -- >> ARE YOU REALLY SAYING YOU WOULD THROW OUT THE BALLOTS OF 740,000, NEARLY THREE-QUARTERS OF ARIZONIANS. >> 740,000 BALLOTS VIOLATED. >> IT'S GNAW TRUE. THE MARICOPA COUNTY BOARD OF SUPERVISORS PUT OUT A 98-PAGE REPORT. >> THAT IS A FACT. CHECK YOUR FACTS. >> NOT TRUE. NOT REMOTELY TRUE. BUT THE THREAT TO DEMOCRACY IS REAL. AND WITH TWO WEEKS UNTIL ELECTION DAY, WE'RE ALREADY WITNESSING HOW THAT THREAT IS BECOMING A REALITY. >> ALSO TONIGHT, YOU WOULD THINK JUSTICE CLARENCE THOMAS WOULD STAY OUT OF ANY CASES INVOLVING TRUMP'S BIG LIE, GIVEN THAT HE'S GINNEE'S HUSBAND, BUT HE'S GOTTEN INVOLVED AGAIN TO HELP OUT ONE OF TRUMP'S WASHINGTON CRONIES. >> AND REPUBLICANS LOVE TO POINT THE FINGER OF BLAME ABOUT IFFLATION, BUT DO THEY EVEN HAVE A PLAN? WHAT WOULD IT MEAN FOR THE U.S. ECONOMY IF THEIR PLAN WAS IMPLEMENTED? >> PLUS, IF YOU WANT TO BE THE REPUBLICAN NOMINEE FOR PRESIDENT, APPARENTLY, YOU HAVE TO BREAK A FEW LAWS. NEW REPORTING TONIGHT ON THE MIGRANT FLIGHTS ORGANIZED BY RON DeSANTIS. >>> WE BEGIN TONIGHT WITH THE OPEN UNABASHED RISE OF ANTI-SEMITISM. OVER THE WEEKEND, A HATE GROUP HUNG A BANNER OVER A BUSY LOS ANGELES FREEWAY IN SUPPORT OF KANYE WEST. WHO AS OF THIS EVENING HAS LOST HIS AGENT AND HIS LAWYER AFTER A BIZARRE DISSENT INTO ANTI-SEMITIC HATE ON SOCIAL MEDIA INCLUDING DECLARING, DEATH CON THREE AGAINST JEWISH PEOPLE. THE GROUP'S SIGN SAID KANYE IS RIGHT ABOUT THE JEWS AND THEY ADDED TO THE HATE BY FLASHING THE ONE-ARMED NAZI SALUTE. AND THAT WOULD BE BAD ENOUGH. IF THIS WAS JUST ONE ISOLATED SNEBT, BUT OF COURSE, IT'S NOT. IN PENNSYLVANIA, EXTREMISM AND ANTI-SEMITISM CONTINUE TO DOMINATE THE GOVERNOR'S RACE WHERE DOUG MASTRIANO IS RUNNING AGAINST THE STATE'S ATTORNEY GENERAL, JOSH SHAPIRO, WHO IS JEWISH. A SENIOR ADVISER TO MASTRIANO RECENTLY TWEETED THAT SHAPIRO, IS QUOTE, AT BEST A SECULAR JEW. A BIZARRE COMMENT REEKING OF ANTI-SEMITIC UNDERTONES. MASTRIANO HAS LASHED OUT AGAINST HIS RIVAL FOR GOING TO JEWISH DAY SCHOOLS AND SENDING HIS KIDS TO ONE. IT ECHOED DONALD TRUMP'S LONG HISTORY WITH ANTI-SEMITIC TROPES, SOMETHING WE SAW EARLIER THIS MONTH WHEN HE POSTED THAT JEWS IN THE UNITED STATES MUST GET THEIR ACT TOGETHER AND SHOW MORE APPRECIATION FOR THE STATE OF ISRAEL BEFORE IT'S TOO LATE. AND THERE'S ARIZONA, WHERE ELECTION DENYING CAND DEMOCRAT MARK FINCHEM ROUTINELY TRAFFICS IN ANTI-SEMITIC TROPES INCLUDING THE NOW FAMILIAR RIGHT WING TACK OF INVOKING THE NAME OF BILLIONAIRE GEORGE SOROS INCLUDING IN A TWEET OVER THE WEEKEND DEFENDING THE ACTION OF POLL WATCHERS IN ARIZONA. WITH JUST 15 DAYS UNTIL THE MIDTERMS WE'RE SEEING IN REAL TIME THAT ARIZONA IS A MICROCOSM FOR ELECTION LIES, SPAWNING VOTER SUPPRESSION AND INTIMIDATION. MARICOPA COUNTY ELECTIONS DEPARTMENT CONFIRMED TWO ARMED INDIVIDUALS IN TACTICAL GEAR AND MASKS STOOD WATCH OVER A DROP BOX IN MESA, ARIZONA, OVER THE WEEKEND. NOT INTIMIDATING AT ALL. OFFICIALS ARE WARNING ABOUT THE PROSPECT OF THINGS GETTING EVEN WORSE, SAYING THEY'RE FIELDING VOTER INTIMIDATION COMPLAINTS WHICH AS FAR AS THE MAGA CROWD IS CONCERNED IS VERY MUCH THE POINT. ARIZONA OFFICIALS ARE WARNING OF MORE UNINFORMED VIGILANTES AND NUMEROUS REPORTS OF A GROWING ARMY OF SELF-PROCLAIMED ELECTION OBSERVERS, RECRUITED BY RIGHT-WING GROUPS PROMOTING THE FORMER PRESIDENT'S BIG LIE. THEY'RE ABETTED BY ELECTION DENIERS LIKE REPUBLICAN CANDIDATE FOR GOVERNOR, KARI LAKE, WHO DESPITE ARIZONA'S 2020 ELECTION BEING THE MOST SCRUTINIZED IN THE COUNTRY, REPEATED ELECTION LIES WHILE REFUSING TO COMMIT TO ACCEPTING THE RESULTS OF THIS YEAR'S ELECTION. >> WHY IT IS THAT YOU HAVE NOT SAID OR MAYBE YOU'LL DO IT NOW, YOU HAVE NOT SAID THAT YOU WILL ACCEPT THE CERTIFIED RESULTS OF THIS ELECTION EVEN IF YOU LOSE. THIS ELECTION. >> I WILL ACCEPT THE RESULTS OF THIS ELECTION IF WE HAVE A FAIR, HONEST, AND TRANSPARENT ELECTION. ABSOLUTELY 100%. >> IF YOU WERE TO LOSE, AND YOU'RE AHEAD, BUT IF YOU WERE TO LOSE AND YOU WENT OUT AND HAD ALL OF YOUR APPEALS, THEY WENT THROUGH. >> AS LONG AS IT'S FAIR, HONEST, AND TRANSPARENT. >> ALSO ALL BUT PROMISED TO DO AWAY WITH MAIL-IN VOTING IF ELECTED AND THEFIRMER NEWS ANCHOR IS A LEADING MAGA REPUBLICAN WARRIOR AGAINST THE BOGEYMAN OF WOKISM, AS EVIDENCED BY ANOTHER ONE OF HER THREATS ON SUNDAY. >> I'M NOT GOING TO BE TAKING MARCHER ORDERS FROM THE NFL. I'M TAKING MARCHING ORDERS FROM THE PEOPLE OF ARIZONA. >> APPARENTLY, THE NOT ACTUALLY ALL THAT PROGRESSIVE NFL IS A PROBLEM FOR LAKE. SHE DOUBLED DOWN ON TWITTER, DARING THE NFL TO PULL THE 2023 SUPER BOWL FROM GLENDALE, ARIZONA, AFTER SHE DECLARES AN INVASION AT THE SOUTHERN BORDER. FOLLOWING SOME NOT UNPRECEDENTED RACIST FOOTSTEPS FROM AN ARIZONA REPUBLICAN, REPUBLICAN EVAN MEACHAM RAN FOR GOVERNOR IN 1986 ON A PLEDGE TO RESCIND THE STATE HOLIDAY HONORING THE REVEREND MARTIN LUTHER KING JR. AND DID JUST THAT AFTER BEING SWORN IN. IN 1990, ARIZONA FACED A PROPOSAL TO ADD THE HOLIDAY BACK TO THE CALENDAR DAYS AFTER A WARNING FROM THE NFL ABOUT THE FATE OF THE 1993 SUPER BOWL SET TO BE PLAYED IN PHOENIX. SO HOW DID THAT GO? >> BY ELECTION DAY, THE MEASURE TO CELEBRATE MARTIN LUTHER KING DAY STATE-WIDE, THOUGH IT HAD BEEN LEADING IN THE POLL, WAS DEFEATED. LED BY GOVERNOR MEMEM, AND PAUL TAGLIABUE SAID HE WOULD MAKE GOOD ON HIS THREAT AND MAKE THE NFL GO ELSEWHERE. >> WAS A VERY NEGATIVE AND DIVISIVE MESSAGE IN THAT VOTE REJECTING THE HOLIDAY, AND WE DIDN'T THINK IT'S APPROPRIATE TO PLAY THE GAME IN THOSE CIRCUMSTANCES. >> JOINING ME NOW IS MARIA TERESA KUMAR, PRESIDENT AND CEO OF VOTE LATINO AND POLITICAL ANALYST MATTHEW DOWD, THE CHIEF STRATEGIST OF THE BUSH/CHAINA 2004 PRESIDENTIAL CAMPAIGN. IT FEELS TO ME LIKE THE BIGGEST RETRENCHMENTS LED BY MAGA REPUBLICANS HAVE BEEN IN STATES THAT HAVE ACTUALLY PROGRESSED. ARIZONA USED TO BE AN ANTI-KING HOLIDAY STATE, THEN A JOHN McCAIN CONSERVATIVE STATE, AND NOW IT'S ACTUALLY GOT TWO DEMOCRATIC UNITED STATES SENATORS. IT'S SEEN AS BECOMING A BIT MORE PROGRESSIVE. YOU'RE SEEING TEXAS, WHICH DEMOGRAPHICALLY IS CHANGING. THERE'S LOTS CULTURALLY GOING ON IN PLACES LIKE TEXAS, NEVADA, THEY'RE FIGHTING REALLY HARD TO PULL THAT BACKWARDS. GEORGIA. AND THE THINGS THAT THESE PLACES HAVE IN COMMON ARE LOTS OF IMMIGRATION. LOTS OF BROWN PEOPLE THAT ARE TURNING VOTING AGE WHO ARE U.S. BORN AND THEY'RE ABLE TO VOTE. AND THAT FEELS LIKE THAT'S TRIGGERING A LOT OF THIS BACKLASH. WHAT DO YOU THINK? >> THAT IS EXACTLY RIGHT. AND THAT'S ONE OF THE REASONS WHY EVERY SINGLE STATE YOU MENTIONED, VOTER LATINO HAS BEEN WORKING IN FOR THE LAST DECADE IF NOT MORE. IN ARIZONA, WE'RE EXPECTING 80,000 YOUNG PEOPLE TO TURN 18 BY NOVEMBER'S ELECTION. THAT IS A STATE WHERE JOE BIDEN WON WITH LESS THAN 12,000 VOTES. AND SO WHEN WE TALK ABOUT THE VIGILANTE THAT'S HAPPENING, IT'S ABOUT DEMOGRAPHICS. IN GEORGIA, WHEN YOU LOOK AT THE AFRICAN AMERICAN COMMUNITY, THE LATINO COMMUNITY, AND THE ASIAN COMMUNITY, ALL OF A SUDDEN YOU'RE TALKING ABOUT A VOTING BLOC THAT IS VASTLY DIFFERENT FROM WHAT GEORGIA HAS HISTORICALLY BEEN ACCUSTOMED TO. BUT THAT NEEDS TO ADAPT. AND WHEN WE TALK ABOUT WHAT'S HAPPENING NOW WITH THE VOTING BOOTH AND THE ACCESS TO IT, EVERY SINGLE AMERICAN, JOY, SHOULD BE ABSOLUTELY ANGRY THAT THEY'RE TRYING TO CHANGE THE RULES AND THE MIDDLE OF AN ELECTION. THAT'S WHY TONIGHT, THIS IS BREAKING NEWS TO YOU, JOY, VOTER LATINO ALONG WITH THE ARIZONA ALLIANCE FOR RETIRED AMERICANS HAS JUST FILED A LAWSUIT AGAINST THE CLEAN ELECTIONS USA. THOSE VIGILANTE PHOTOS YOU SHOWED US ARE PART OF THAT COHORT OF INDIVIDUALS RECRUITED BY THIS EXTREME RIGHT WING CLEAN ELECTIONS USA, WHO IS CLAIMING THEY HAVE TO INSURE THAT THERE ARE CLEAN ELECTIONS, BUT WHAT THEY'RE DOING IS INTIMIDATING VOTERS. DISPROPORTIONATELY OLDER VOTERS AND INDIVIDUAL PEOPLE OF COLOR. SO WE CAN'T STAND -- WE CAN'T SIT BY. THIS IS WHAT'S HAPPENING RIGHT NOW IN OUR DEMOCRACY, AND THE MORE THAT WE SAY THAT IT'S BUSINESS AS USUAL, THEN ALL OF A SUDDEN WE'RE ALLOWING INDIVIDUALS OF THE FAR RIGHT EXTREME TAKE ESSENCE OF OUR DEMOCRACY IN A WAY THAT WILL NOT BE ABLE TO PULL BACK. IT'S ALMOST LIKE WE'RE SEEING THIS REALLY VERY MUCH A FIGHT FOR THE SOUL OF OUR NATION, WHETHER WE'RE TALKING ABOUT ANTI-SEMITISM OR ANTI-BLACKNESS, WHETHER WE'RE TALK ABOUT WHETHER A WOMAN HAS AGENCY OVER HER BODDO OR WHETHER PEOPLE TALK ABOUT IMMIGRATION REFORM UNDER THE GUISE OF HATE. WE HAVE TO PUSH BACK AND SAY NOT ON OUR WATCH. >> MATTHEW, IT DOES ALL GO TOGETHER, RIGHT? SORT OF THE CONSPIRACY THEORY THAT UNDERLINES FASCISM AND THAT'S ALWAYS BEEN THAT COMMUNISTIC JEWISH PEOPLE HAVE A CONSPIRACY TO BRING IN MORE BLACK AND BROWN PEOPLE, AND THAT THOSE PEOPLE ARE GOING TO VOTE AND THEY'RE GOING TO OVERWHELM AND REPLACE WHITE CHRISTIANS. LIKE, THIS GOES BACK TO LIKE THE '50s AND '60s, RIGHT, BUT NOW IT DOES FEEL LIKE IT'S ACCELERATING. YOU THINK ABOUT A STATE LIKE GEORGIA WHERE THIS IS A WOMAN, MARJORIE TAYLOR GREENE, WHO TRAFFICS IN BLATANT ANTI-SEMITISM, QANON CONSPIRACIES. SHE'S NOW TELLING PEOPLE DONALD TRUMP SAID SHE'LL BE HIS RUNNING MATE. 100% I BELIEVE IT, AND THE THING IS THAT SOMEBODY LIKE MARJORIE GREENE, TO EMERGE AT THE SAME TIME THAT YOU HAVE THE FIRST JEWISH AND YOU HAVE AN AFRICAN AMERICAN UNITED STATES SENATOR IN THAT STATE, IT FEELS LIKE THOSE ARECOINCIDENTAL. WHAT DO YOU THINK? >> I DON'T THINK ANY OF THIS IS COINCIDENTAL. YOU MENTIONED THE '50s AND '60s, THIS HARKENS BACK TO WHAT WAS GOING ON IN THE SOUTH WITH INTIMIDATIONS BY SHERIFFS AND DEPUTY SHERIFFS BECAUSE AS AFRICAN AMERICANS BEGAN TO ACTUALLY TAKE THEIR POWER AND VOTE, THEY WERE THEN SUBJECT TO ALL KINDS OF INTIMIDATION, BUT IT GOES FURTHER BACK. EVERY TIME THERE'S AN INFLUX OF IMMIGRANTS OR THE FACE OF AMERICA BEGINS TO CHANGE, YOU LOOK AT EVERY PERIOD OF HISTORY WHERE THAT HAPPENED, IN THE EARLY 1900s, IN THE 1800s WHETHER IT'S ITALIANS, IRISH, CHINESE, JAPANESE, JEWS. EVERY TIME THAT HAPPENS, THERE'S A RISE OF THIS HATE, AND THERE'S A PUSHBACK BY THE POWER STRUCTURE IN THIS. I THINK ALL OF THIS IS A SIGN, A REFLECTION, THAT REPUBLICANS AND THIS WHITE NATIONALIST MOVEMENT KNOWS THAT AMERICA IS A MULTI-CULTURAL DIVERSE COUNTRY. ALL OF THIS. AND THEY KNOW WITHOUT THESE THINGS, THEY CANNOT WIN. AND THEY'RE GOING TO DO THIS. THIS IS AN AWFUL STRATEGY IN THE SHORT TERM. I MEAN, FOR US, ALL OF US, IT DOESN'T WORK IN THE LONG TERM BECAUSE THE CHANGE OF AMERICA, BUT IN THE SHORT TERM, THAT'S THEIR ONLY PLAY. THEY KNOW IF A MAJORITY OF PEOPLE VOTE AND GO TO THE POLLS, THEY CAN'T WIN. SO THEIR GOAL, LIKE IT HAS BEEN THROUGHOUT OUR HISTORY, TO KEEP ANYBODY THAT ISN'T
