What are these 2 and how do I kill it. The first is all over my flowerbeds and grows fast. It is the one coming out to the camera.

Spurge weed. Ive never had to deal with it so will let others recommend treatment.

Roundup will kill it

I think the top photo is mature Virginia Buttonweed based on the small white flowers, and as Zappas noted the bottom is spurge. I’d suggest MSM Turf (metsulfuron methyl), with surfactant added, as you can also use it to control lawn weeds. You’ll have have to spray multiple times to control the buttonweed, particularly the mature weeds, at 3-4 week intervals, to get it under control.

Top is not VA Buttonweed unless it's some odd variety I've never seen before.

Yes you’re right. Looks like top photo is likely garden spurge, Chamaesyce hirta or Euphorbia hirta, not VBW, though I’ve seen some mature VBW that resembles it.
