WEBVTT 1 00:00:00.600 --> 00:00:02.919 This is Gary and Shannon and you're listening to KFI 2 00:00:03.080 --> 00:00:05.839 AM six forty the Gary and Shannon Show on demand 3 00:00:05.919 --> 00:00:07.639 on the iHeartRadio. 4 00:00:06.960 --> 00:00:12.240 App Live in Chicago for the Democratic National Convention Day three. 5 00:00:12.560 --> 00:00:17.199 Did you know that every state delegation had its own 6 00:00:17.280 --> 00:00:20.719 walk up song last night? Some of them making sense, 7 00:00:20.879 --> 00:00:23.160 some of them not making sense. We'll get into it. 8 00:00:23.239 --> 00:00:27.440 For example, Arkansas's walk up song was Don't Stop by 9 00:00:27.440 --> 00:00:31.879 Fleetwood Mac reference to President Clinton, who used this as 10 00:00:31.920 --> 00:00:34.920 a campaign song in nineteen ninety two. A little call 11 00:00:35.000 --> 00:00:39.119 back there, of course, Clinton coming from Arkansas. One that 12 00:00:39.200 --> 00:00:42.679 did not make as much sense. Sweet Home Alabama for 13 00:00:42.759 --> 00:00:46.679 Alabama by Lynyrd Skinnyard. It's a nice name, it's a 14 00:00:46.759 --> 00:00:49.320 nice tune, but the lyrics were in response to a 15 00:00:49.359 --> 00:00:52.600 song by Neil Young that decried the legacy of slavery 16 00:00:52.759 --> 00:00:54.000 in the Jim Crow South. 17 00:00:54.479 --> 00:00:57.719 So I don't know many leave that one out. 18 00:00:57.759 --> 00:00:59.079 They didn't read about that. 19 00:01:00.719 --> 00:01:04.000 Tonight, of course, is going to be a huge coming 20 00:01:04.040 --> 00:01:07.239 out party for Governor Tim Walls, for him to introduce 21 00:01:07.319 --> 00:01:11.040 himself not just to Democrats, but Independence and anybody who 22 00:01:11.120 --> 00:01:11.640 will listen. 23 00:01:11.879 --> 00:01:14.079 He seems like he's going to be the attack dog 24 00:01:14.200 --> 00:01:16.040 for the Democrats joining. 25 00:01:15.760 --> 00:01:17.680 Us now to talk more about this and what other 26 00:01:17.799 --> 00:01:21.400 things we can expect tonight. Alex Gangatano from the Hill. Alex, 27 00:01:21.439 --> 00:01:24.120 thanks again for taking time for us today. 28 00:01:24.719 --> 00:01:26.599 Hi from Chicago. Thanks for having me. 29 00:01:27.200 --> 00:01:30.719 It sounds like you're right next door to us, and 30 00:01:30.760 --> 00:01:35.079 you probably are so so Tim Walls, I read this 31 00:01:35.120 --> 00:01:37.840 earlier today. Tim Walls had to tell the Kamala Harris 32 00:01:37.879 --> 00:01:42.760 campaign that until they called him, he had never used 33 00:01:42.920 --> 00:01:46.319 a teleprompter before in any speech that he's ever given. 34 00:01:46.680 --> 00:01:49.319 What are we going to expect from from the governor tonight? 35 00:01:50.920 --> 00:01:53.040 That's right, His stories like that are you know. I 36 00:01:53.079 --> 00:01:55.599 covered Tim Wats when he was a member of Congress 37 00:01:56.239 --> 00:01:59.280 years ago, and I was covering Congress and he was 38 00:01:59.280 --> 00:02:02.040 someone who would talk to the press and he would 39 00:02:02.239 --> 00:02:05.120 always be chatting with other lawmakers. He really is just 40 00:02:05.200 --> 00:02:07.959 authentically Tim Wallas and is happy to just chat with 41 00:02:08.000 --> 00:02:11.199 whoever you know, wants to hear from him. And so 42 00:02:11.400 --> 00:02:14.360 I'm not surprised by that telepropter comment because he just, 43 00:02:14.560 --> 00:02:16.840 you know, speaks like a He's a teacher and a 44 00:02:16.879 --> 00:02:18.840 coach and someone who just speaks off the cups. So 45 00:02:19.719 --> 00:02:23.000 you know, tonight he'll have to practice his telepropter skills 46 00:02:23.039 --> 00:02:24.879 before his big speech. But I think it's going to 47 00:02:24.919 --> 00:02:29.840 be a mix of both his authenticity, his Midwestern charm tonight, 48 00:02:29.919 --> 00:02:32.280 but also this attack dog role that he's taking on. 49 00:02:32.680 --> 00:02:36.599 I think Harris really wanted him on the ticket because 50 00:02:36.599 --> 00:02:40.280 of the way that he can just simply and bluntly 51 00:02:41.039 --> 00:02:45.039 talk about Donald Trump and Senator Vance, you know, calling 52 00:02:45.080 --> 00:02:47.479 them weird. Like he doesn't get too in the weeds 53 00:02:47.520 --> 00:02:51.919 about you know, policy or or why he you know, 54 00:02:52.319 --> 00:02:54.719 uh thinks these people are a threat to democracy or 55 00:02:54.759 --> 00:02:56.639 whatever else, which is kind of the tactic that Biden 56 00:02:56.680 --> 00:02:59.960 had taken on against them, but instead just uh try 57 00:03:00.199 --> 00:03:02.840 to just attack them on really you know, simple terms 58 00:03:02.840 --> 00:03:07.000 that he hopes that Americans can resonate with. So we'll see, 59 00:03:07.000 --> 00:03:10.960 you know what his introduction also of to America is 60 00:03:11.000 --> 00:03:13.080 this is like one of the first times a lot 61 00:03:13.120 --> 00:03:15.759 of voters are going to hear from him. And so 62 00:03:15.840 --> 00:03:17.719 how much will he explain his background? I think they're 63 00:03:17.719 --> 00:03:18.719 going to play up that he was. 64 00:03:18.719 --> 00:03:19.560 A coach a lot. 65 00:03:19.599 --> 00:03:23.120 That's something that they find really fun, his Midwestern background 66 00:03:23.159 --> 00:03:25.840 and just again try to be as you know, charming 67 00:03:25.879 --> 00:03:27.080 and authentic as he can. 68 00:03:28.240 --> 00:03:32.439 Yeah, one of the themes here has been happy warriors. 69 00:03:32.479 --> 00:03:36.439 When we went to the California delegates breakfast yesterday, that's 70 00:03:36.520 --> 00:03:38.719 a phrase we kept hearing repeatedly from people. 71 00:03:38.719 --> 00:03:41.479 We're all just happy warriors, and so he's got to 72 00:03:41.560 --> 00:03:43.360 kind of be a happy attack. 73 00:03:43.159 --> 00:03:47.520 Dog, right, That's right, that's his thing. He's joyful. He's 74 00:03:47.560 --> 00:03:50.800 a happy warrior. But he's also someone who's not afraid 75 00:03:51.199 --> 00:03:54.000 to call out, you know, something from you know, Vans, 76 00:03:54.759 --> 00:03:58.680 and so it's a balance that he's been able to strike. Whereas, 77 00:03:58.680 --> 00:04:00.479 you know, I think it also power back lence is 78 00:04:00.560 --> 00:04:02.039 Harris a bit. You know, Harris is. 79 00:04:02.280 --> 00:04:08.039 Serious and wants to show that she's focused on policy 80 00:04:09.199 --> 00:04:12.280 and she's you know, focused on preserving democracy, which is 81 00:04:12.319 --> 00:04:14.960 something that her boss Center or President Biden was so 82 00:04:15.319 --> 00:04:18.079 is so focused on as well, Whereas Walls. 83 00:04:17.800 --> 00:04:22.040 Can be kind of this you know, joyful warrior, happy 84 00:04:22.079 --> 00:04:26.319 warrior persona, and so far, I think it's working for them. 85 00:04:26.319 --> 00:04:28.000 When you see them on the trail together, they do 86 00:04:28.160 --> 00:04:29.519 kind of balance out one another. 87 00:04:30.319 --> 00:04:33.360 You said that he seems to be the one that's 88 00:04:33.399 --> 00:04:36.680 going to go after h Trump in vance, and he's 89 00:04:36.720 --> 00:04:38.920 going to use the words like weird and creepy and 90 00:04:38.920 --> 00:04:44.399 not get bogged down with policy discussions if you know him, 91 00:04:44.720 --> 00:04:47.279 is he capable of having those policy discussions? 92 00:04:47.399 --> 00:04:50.360 Is he, you know, a policy wonk when he needs 93 00:04:50.399 --> 00:04:50.600 to be? 94 00:04:52.519 --> 00:04:55.560 You know he is. During the Obama administration, when he 95 00:04:55.639 --> 00:05:00.680 was serving in Congress, he was from a heavy agriculture 96 00:05:00.720 --> 00:05:04.000 district in Minnesota and was really serious about, you know, 97 00:05:04.240 --> 00:05:08.360 pushing back on some more progressive climate agenda items that 98 00:05:09.399 --> 00:05:12.759 Obama was pushing at the time, ones that you know, 99 00:05:12.839 --> 00:05:14.600 he wanted to push back on them in order to 100 00:05:14.639 --> 00:05:18.079 defend farmers from his district. So he definitely when it's 101 00:05:18.120 --> 00:05:19.519 time to get in the weeds when it comes to 102 00:05:19.600 --> 00:05:23.199 defending his district in particular, Minnesota now in particular, and 103 00:05:23.199 --> 00:05:26.480 then I guess the whole country if he becomes vice president, 104 00:05:26.759 --> 00:05:28.600 he does get into the weeds. I think we're going 105 00:05:28.639 --> 00:05:32.120 to hear him talk a lot about what he's done 106 00:05:32.199 --> 00:05:39.439 in Minnesota for migrants. He made college tuition free for immigrants, 107 00:05:40.360 --> 00:05:43.480 what kind of you know, standards he expects that should 108 00:05:43.480 --> 00:05:47.519 happen across the board nationally to support immigrants. And then 109 00:05:47.560 --> 00:05:49.120 we are going to hear him talk a lot about 110 00:05:49.160 --> 00:05:53.800 reproductive rice. He's talked about his imfertility challenges yes, he 111 00:05:53.920 --> 00:05:57.639 did mention that he him and his wife went through 112 00:05:57.680 --> 00:06:03.279 IVF when really they went through another form of infertility treatment. 113 00:06:03.319 --> 00:06:06.480 Whereas that's something that now he's been attacked from Republicans on. 114 00:06:06.519 --> 00:06:08.120 So I think he's going to get a little more 115 00:06:08.120 --> 00:06:11.319 in the weeds about that to try to defend that, 116 00:06:11.480 --> 00:06:13.519 but also in the weeds about you know that we 117 00:06:13.600 --> 00:06:18.240 need more legislation to support women who are having fertility challenges. 118 00:06:18.360 --> 00:06:19.240 Just across the board. 119 00:06:20.079 --> 00:06:23.360 Alex Gangitano is our guest. She writes for The Hill 120 00:06:23.399 --> 00:06:26.759 White House Correspondent. And do you think anyone's going to 121 00:06:26.800 --> 00:06:29.439 bring up Gaza tonight or tomorrow? 122 00:06:30.920 --> 00:06:34.079 Yeah, that's a big question. So tomorrow, I think that 123 00:06:34.360 --> 00:06:36.959 Vice President Harris definitely has to bring it up. I 124 00:06:36.959 --> 00:06:38.720 think she will in short term. 125 00:06:39.399 --> 00:06:41.079 We in a short. 126 00:06:40.879 --> 00:06:43.120 Kind of quick way of doing it. We heard from 127 00:06:43.160 --> 00:06:45.839 President Biden when he brought it up. It was like 128 00:06:45.920 --> 00:06:48.279 two or three lines on it. He said that he, 129 00:06:48.399 --> 00:06:53.160 you know, respects the protesters outside in Chicago during his speech, 130 00:06:53.199 --> 00:06:56.120 but also that you know, before the ceasefire deal has 131 00:06:56.199 --> 00:07:00.240 to be you know, agreed to so that this war 132 00:07:00.279 --> 00:07:02.759 can end. I think we're going to see Harris acknowledge it. 133 00:07:02.920 --> 00:07:05.279 Do that same kind of in that same kind of way, 134 00:07:06.199 --> 00:07:07.839 but at the same time, she doesn't want to distract 135 00:07:07.839 --> 00:07:10.160 from other issues like the economy and abortion that she's 136 00:07:10.199 --> 00:07:11.399 really ready to talk about. 137 00:07:11.920 --> 00:07:12.319 Not for her. 138 00:07:12.839 --> 00:07:14.879 If we will hear Tim Walls talk about it, he's 139 00:07:14.920 --> 00:07:17.399 definitely in a phase right now trying to navigate how 140 00:07:17.399 --> 00:07:20.160 to discuss it. Minnesota is a big Arab and Muslim 141 00:07:20.160 --> 00:07:24.120 American population state, and he's, you know, navigating how to 142 00:07:24.240 --> 00:07:26.879 speak about it in broad terms nationally when he's used 143 00:07:26.879 --> 00:07:30.920 to knew Minnesota politics. But you know, we could maybe 144 00:07:31.079 --> 00:07:35.399 hear a Bill Clinton talk about it, or another more 145 00:07:35.439 --> 00:07:39.839 seasoned Democrat who can speak, you know, in broad terms 146 00:07:39.879 --> 00:07:42.959 on a national level about it. So I'm sure it 147 00:07:43.000 --> 00:07:46.040 will come up in one sense, but I think if 148 00:07:46.079 --> 00:07:49.759 it doesn't tonight, it definitely will tomorrow with the Vice President, 149 00:07:49.759 --> 00:07:51.560 because I do think she just has to address it. 150 00:07:52.480 --> 00:07:56.199 Alex, great stuff, Thanks for taking time for us today. 151 00:07:56.600 --> 00:07:57.399 Thanks for having me. 152 00:07:57.800 --> 00:08:02.000 Alex Agan Chatano there again from the bill she mentioned. 153 00:08:02.000 --> 00:08:04.000 Tim Walls, of course, is going to be the keynote. 154 00:08:04.120 --> 00:08:04.600 She mentioned. 155 00:08:04.600 --> 00:08:09.480 Bill Clinton, former president is going to speak. Transportation Secretary 156 00:08:09.560 --> 00:08:12.279 Pete Bootage is going to speak boot Edge Edge, I 157 00:08:12.279 --> 00:08:14.959 don't know if this brings as much energy as last night. 158 00:08:15.079 --> 00:08:17.519 No, it does not. Nothing's going to compare to the Obama. 159 00:08:17.560 --> 00:08:19.160 There's got to be a drop off. 160 00:08:19.279 --> 00:08:23.000 Yes, tonight here in Chicago, and a longtime friend of 161 00:08:23.040 --> 00:08:25.920 the show, I like to say, Oh, Kennedy.

Yeah, that the 364 00:17:00.279 --> 00:17:04.440 police response was aggressive, and that people were surrounded, corralled, 365 00:17:04.519 --> 00:17:07.039 and that it was nearly impossible for them to leave. 366 00:17:07.680 --> 00:17:11.279 Kelly Meyer is the Washington correspondent for News Nation covering 367 00:17:11.279 --> 00:17:14.119 the White House, the campaign trail, the Pentagon spaced out 368 00:17:14.119 --> 00:17:16.960 of DC and Kelly, it seems like you've been able 369 00:17:17.000 --> 00:17:19.240 to dig up some information about what we could see 370 00:17:19.279 --> 00:17:21.400 leading up to Tim Walls's remarks tonight. 371 00:17:22.559 --> 00:17:24.480 Well, yeah, and you can probably hear some of it here. 372 00:17:24.640 --> 00:17:27.680 I'm inside the United Center in Chicago where the DNC 373 00:17:27.839 --> 00:17:30.039 is taking place, and right now they're going through Mike 374 00:17:30.160 --> 00:17:32.640 checks and walkthroughs of the performance tonight. So that's what 375 00:17:32.680 --> 00:17:35.119 happens through today here as we're doing live shops for 376 00:17:35.240 --> 00:17:38.559 News Nation, this is happening behind the scenes. We've already 377 00:17:38.599 --> 00:17:41.279 seen Marylynd Governor West Moore come up and kind of 378 00:17:41.279 --> 00:17:44.960 do his walkthrough. Cindy Kaling is the celebrity host for tonight, 379 00:17:45.279 --> 00:17:48.799 but the main headlines here are former President Bill Clinton 380 00:17:49.200 --> 00:17:52.319 will be speaking there tonight, and then Tim Walls, the 381 00:17:52.400 --> 00:17:55.839 running mate for Kamala Harris, will be introducing himself to 382 00:17:56.000 --> 00:18:00.480 the country. He's the governor of Minnesota and this certainly 383 00:18:00.480 --> 00:18:03.680 be the biggest stage of his political career and of 384 00:18:03.720 --> 00:18:05.960 his life that he will be speaking on here tonight. 385 00:18:07.160 --> 00:18:10.920 One of the expectations is that Tim Walls does basically 386 00:18:10.920 --> 00:18:13.559 do this introduction to not just the members of the 387 00:18:13.599 --> 00:18:16.000 Democratic Party who may not be very familiar with him, 388 00:18:16.400 --> 00:18:19.319 but also independent voters and anybody else who might still 389 00:18:19.359 --> 00:18:22.200 be looking for a candidate to support. 390 00:18:23.359 --> 00:18:26.079 Is he good at that? Is he good at introducing himself? 391 00:18:26.200 --> 00:18:29.759 Does he have that personality? Yeah, that's the big. 392 00:18:29.680 --> 00:18:32.160 Question because a lot of people know Kamala Harris because 393 00:18:32.200 --> 00:18:34.680 she was introduced to the country as vice president with 394 00:18:34.759 --> 00:18:36.839 President Joe Biden. A lot of people don't know who 395 00:18:36.839 --> 00:18:38.599 Tim Walls is. So this is his chance to not 396 00:18:38.640 --> 00:18:42.200 only introduce himself his resume. He was a former high 397 00:18:42.200 --> 00:18:45.000 school social studies teacher, He was a former high school 398 00:18:45.000 --> 00:18:48.039 football coach. He had twenty four years of Army reserve. 399 00:18:48.119 --> 00:18:52.359 He also was a public sermon in the House for 400 00:18:52.359 --> 00:18:55.119 twelve years and then now as governor of Minnesota in 401 00:18:55.160 --> 00:18:57.279
