| 0:00.0 | Welcome everyone to the beat. I'm Ari Melburgh. I'll see you right now and maybe Sunday and surely at the |
| 0:04.3 | beginning of the week if you follow the news. We're on the final Friday before the election. |
| 0:08.1 | And coming up, I have a new video report on this campaign year. Why so many people it has |
| 0:12.9 | feel it's been so over the top, exhilarating and exhausting and the road, the Dem C for a Kamala Harris win, |
| 0:19.2 | that's coming up in a brand new video special report. |
| 0:22.2 | Something different. We're trying here going into the weekend. Also, Oscar winning documentary, |
| 0:26.2 | Michael Moore joins us on the Midwest Clash, and Connie Chung is here tonight. So, we begin with the |
| 0:31.3 | facts with the four days left. Over 65 million Americans have now voted. That's 41% of the 2020 electorate. That's a lot. |
| 0:40.4 | Trump's in Michigan and Wisconsin. Harris holding a rally there as well. And we know these final |

| 1:05.9 | Authorities did not conclude the motivations, the formal motives of those attackers, and we've been covering all |
| 1:11.9 | that. I'm sure you remember it. It was Donald Trump and his allies who, at that time, around |
| 1:17.9 | those terrible assassinations, loudly denounced just even strong language or criticism from |
| 1:23.5 | Democrats. And they argued, without evidence, that even criticizing, say, Trump's efforts to |
| 1:28.7 | steal elections is autocratic, that itself, they argued, contributed to a violent climate. |
| 1:34.6 | So Donald Trump's new remarks, which you're about to see, and you may have heard about, |
| 1:38.1 | completely hypocritically contradict his own supposed calls to cool the rhetoric, which were then obviously selective, |
| 1:45.5 | and very clearly you'll see why they were and are now. But Trump, his attack here, what he's |
| 1:51.3 | doing can't be normalized or treated as just one more closing argument. It raises very real |
