To anyone who can help:

I have tried multiple times to install cygwin without success. I
cannot seem to find any online information about people doing recent
installs or having any recent problems. I have watched videos of
people installing cygwin and done the exact same steps and had no
success. I am sorry if I am repeating a much asked question but I
cannot seem to find any previous support here. My log file has the
following errors (I am only including the two most recent tries in
order to not have a huge email):

Any help is appreciated.

Well, your mirrors are on the mirror list (cygwin.com/mirrors.lst) so it appears you are picking current mirrors. Do you require a proxy or other settings to access the Internet with your browser from this machine? If so, you want to choose the "Use Internet Explorer Proxy Settings" or "Use HTTP/FTP Proxy:" in setup.
