>> on that note, i wanted to ask about two other gatherings or meetings that are happening around the same time, right? you've got prime minister of india headed to russia to meet with vladimir putin for the first time since russia launched its war in ukraine they also have hungary's prime minister viktor orban in beijing and a surprise visit to meet with president xi if you add these visits up, what do you get? what do people need to be watching for their well, i think what they're trying to do here, these autocrats, i mean, they're clearly challenging the united states in our democratic allies. and i should note, including our asian allies because we have the members of, so we have our east asian allies and australia, another ally joining the nato summit. they i've been doing this now for a couple of years, and that's significant. so we have the democracies getting together collectively on the world stage, though putin and xi want to have competitive programming in the world of media has split-screen. so that

is what they're trying to do here. they're trying to show that they're strong, that they can stand up to the democracy our seas there's a real struggle going on. you mentioned the far right. yes. they've made some advances in certain places, but they've also had to retreat in places like poland. we forget that poland is now governed by a centrist government. and that has been a change and the latest development women's and brands also should be reassuring to some extent, but there's a real struggle here. so i think that those countries, china and russia are watching closely and they're trying to vie for influence with the united states i'm farkas great to see you. thank you. i knew i've seen a new central starts now breaking this morning, this morning hurricane beryl tearing through texas, hundreds of thousands of people without power as millions more on high alert for

flooding and life-threatening storm surges anxiety and anesia. >> the white house, we have new reporting on the somber mood there as calls grow louder for president biden to end his campaign. and multiple shootings in major american cities. we have the latest from the ground, sarah is out today, i'm john berman with kate bolduan in this it is cnn news central breaking news this hour and extremely dangerous situation is happening in texas at the moment, hurricane beryl has made landfall, is lashing the coast and moving inland. >> flash flood warnings are in place, impacting millions of people this morning, as many as 100,000 people are waking up without power and you know, these numbers are fluid and fluctuating throughout the morning because it's happening as we speak speak overnight. beryl gain strength just before officially making landfall as a

category one storm. this is the first us landfall of the 2024 hurricane season, the earliest landfall of two texas and 40 years along with the flood threat, the other major concern is storm surge and the possibility the backside of the storm could spin up tornadoes in its wake. cnn meteorologist derrick van dam is in texas, isn't port lavaca, texas watching in all four us. derek, what's the very latest yeah southeast texas. >> now, feeling the brunt of the first hurricane of the 2024 atlantic hurricane season. and then it's packing quite the punch as well this thing's been on our radar for nearly two weeks. it's made three separate landfalls. now including here in the u.s. where we're standing important lavaca texas. we received hurricane force gas, tropical force sustained winds, and also storm surge that there's quite a difference in what we experienced this time yesterday when we were on the ground. i just want to give you a little bit of a show and tell this is the lavaca bay causeway

directly behind me and i want you to see this exposed around here. we're now on the backside of hurricane beryl. and we're kind of getting that reverse flow. of course, we're moving away from low tide. but yesterday at this time there were waves lapping up to the edge of this seawall. so quite a difference in the wind direction, but also the tide and the surge component to the storm on the back inside of it. now, there has been so much of the storm that has brought threats to the eastern parts of texas, including 90 mile per hour wind gusts near the matagorda bay region. there has also been storm surge values two to five feet above normal high tide levels. and in houston, we are starting to experience extremely heavy the rain and localized flash flooding as well. let's get to the impacts. show you the graphics because this speaks 1,000 words. we have still a hurricane category 175 miles per hour, but it's this shading of red over harris county all the way to the coastline of southeast texas.

that is a flash flood warning valid through 8:00 a.m. this morning impacting hundreds of thousands of people, including the houston metropolitan region are there have been rainfall totals here that have exceeded a half a foot and some locations. and there is more rain to come that's the concern that the rivers, creeks and by use here could rapidly rise. so we're going to be on the lookout for flash flooding. there had been ports of water rescues in some locations across the the most impacted areas. and i want you to see the current threats now in terms of tornadoes, because we talk about that eastern quadrant of a hurricane, they spin up tornadoes at a moment's notice about an hour and a half ago, there was a tornado warning in houston metropolitan it didn't last long, but nonetheless, that's the threats that we are facing. and a tornado watch exists through 10:00 a.m. on top of that the storm surge component, which again, we are on the backside of the storm, so winds are coming off shore. but galveston bay earlier this morning was exceeding four feet

above their normal tide values. and that's expected to continue as the waters from the warm gulf of mexico, which is directly behind me, continue to surge and get pushed up thanks to the strong winds associated. with this rapid strengthening storm. that of course now has moved inland. the storm is going to move away quickly. that's the only saving grace here. it's not another harvey kate, the storm will not linger, it will move on potentially limiting the heavy rainfall factor here back to you. >> people, people will be very happy to hear that while they're still in the middle of it in many places, it's great, sue, derrick, thank you for being there. john or we have new cnn reporting this morning, a somber mood inside the white house. >> as aids or anxious about president biden's political future. he has vowed to stay in the presidential race but this morning there is increasing pressure on him to drop out sources, say half a dozen top house democrats told minority leader hakeem jeffries and a private phone call that it was time for president bind to go

one senior democratic aide described the call as brutal. this comes as lawmakers returned to capitol hill the full democratic caucus meets tomorrow. cnn's kayla tausche is at the white house this morning. lauren fox is with this as well. kayla, let's start with you. in the moon of that building behind you. what are you hearing? >> well, the mood, john is somber, anxious despondent adjectives that were used to describe the mood here a little over a week ago and even in the week since that disastrous debate performance, despite tens of millions of dollars in new ads and aggressive campaign strategy. and the president's attempt to hold interviews, take get more questions from reporters to quiet some of those concerns. that strategy has done little to assuage, not only how voters feel in the wake of that debate performance with questions about his acuity and ability to serve, but also new concerns from those on capitol hill this week, the president faces a critical time asked for his candidacy. he'll

be hosting more than 30 world leaders from nato allies here in washington, dc against the backdrop of this cloud hanging over his case candidacy, which will need to be decided at some point in the next few weeks, he has dug is heels and he has said he's not going anywhere. but even so top donors top democrats on capitol hill are all continuing to raise questions about whether there needs to be a more coordinated effort, either a letter sent to president biden or a meeting called that the white house to discuss these concerns in a more formalized fashion. i'm told by a campaign official that president biden is doing outreach of his own, that he's calling many democratic lawmaker first to try to assure them that their concerns are being heard. this on the back of speaking with more than 20 house democrats last week on this same topic. but with house it's democrats set to convene in full on tuesday after holding that private call. he is really racing the clock here to try to get members of his own party board with him. and

that outreach is going to continue in an aggressive fashion this week, john yeah. >> on that point, the kayla was just making their lauren fox the landscape changes very quickly in washington starting today as members start coming back after being gone here, what's that going to look like with all these democratic members around? they're gonna have a full caucus meeting. you know, they're gonna be talking about this yeah the momentum is going to be key here and whether or not biden is able to continue having support among democrats in the house and in the senate. we're going to get a good glimpse of where that support lies by the end of this week, it's important to remember that lawmakers were only in town for just a few hours on friday before departing right after that debate performance that was worrying to so many democrats and you're hearing from people across the spectrum of the party privately and now publicly, there are five democrats calling for biden to get out of this race. it's going to be really interesting

to see when they get back tonight, whether or not that momentum starts to shift for biden, whether that momentum starts to build for him to get out of this race you heard over the weekend some of those concerns. here's one democrat, gerry connolly invoking god on almighty as the only intervention that is going to dissuade him from going forward i i hope joe biden didn't really mean that look, this is a very human process, not a divine process. >> while we all hope for the blessings of god politics is a very human business. and we have to make some very hard decisions going forward. and so does he let's just lay out the political framework here for a lot of democrats. >> they are going to be launching, polling very closely in the next couple of days because what they want to understand is whether or not biden's debate performance and questions about his mental

acuity going forward are going to potentially hold them in their own races. democrats are hoping to take back the house. they're hoping to keep the senate if they start to see polling suggesting that biden on the top of the ticket could be a problem for them going forward. that certainly will shift things. we're going to be keeping a close eye also on senator mark warner. there had been some reporting that he was going to try and convene some kind of meeting to discuss this issue with democrats. that's no longer happening, were told, but we're going to keep a close eye on some of those key voices. and again, we're gonna know a lot more by the end of the week, john, really honestly, there are changes almost every hour. lauren fox skeleton thanks to both of you okay. know, a deadly combination of extremes happening out west all-time record-breaking heat, and wildfires making the landscape look like erupting okay. noses has how it's being described now. plus families and gaza evacuating their homes as israeli forces begin, new counterterrorism operation against hamas. and multiple

alright, this morning as president biden fights for his political life, one of the thing that president and some of the supporters keep on saying is the polls have always underestimated him. >> they say the poll showed he was going to lose in 2020. the polls showed that democrats were in a losing the midterms in 2022 that didn't exactly happen, so it wouldn't happen this it's time. well, how true is that history exactly with us now, cnn senior data reporter, harryette and for something of a history lesson, harris? yes, history professor harriet. and here at your service. all right? so i just want to point out where the poles are now, where they were at this point back in 2020. and joe biden's worst position in the polls back in 2020 right now, donald trump believes in an aggregate of national polls by about three percentage points. if you go back four years ago at this point, joe biden was ahead by

nine points this right now, don't look anything like what we saw well, four years ago at this point, i then decided to take it a step further. what was biden's worst 2020 polling position? he was ahead by four points, which basically match what he ended up beating donald trump by in the national popular vote. so this three-point advantage for donald trump is donald trump's best position versus joe biden. whether you include the polls this year or you include the polls last cycle, the idea that the poles underestimated joe biden last time around, simply put, does not hold any water. mr. berman? not in the general election, certainly. what about in terms of being your estimated of the trump era in general? yeah. so i decided to expand upon our search. who are outperform their july national polls. this is major elections during the trump era. we can start in the midterms, right take a look here. this is a 2022 midterm. this is judgment generic congressional ballot. in fact, republicans were

underestimated by a point they outperform form their july paul's and the actual result by a percentage points, you go back to 2018. democrats did outperform their pulse, but just by point, basically the polls were right on at this particular point in the midterm elections, we talk about the presidential race last time around donald trump actually did better in the results and his july paul's by five points, you go back to 2016. you see something very similar. that is the july polls actually underestimated donald trump. he outperformed his july paul's. so the idea in the trump era that the polls have underestimated democrats, whether it be in a joe biden matchup, whether it be a matchup against hillary clinton, whether it be in the midterms, at least in the national polling that right now shows donald trump in the strongest position. simply put, is not true. if anything, the paul's have underestimated republicans during the trump era, especially in the presidential races in 2016 and in 2020 on that front, i mean, how unusual is it for a republican to be ahead by this much right now? yeah. so let's go all the way back. who lead in early july polls? well,

right now, donald trump is ahead. go back in 2020, a democrat by, in 2016, hillary clinton, a democrat. 2008, 2012, a democrat, even at 2004 where george w bush ended up winning, john kerry was actually in the head and the pulse that's what you have to go all the way back. two 2000 to george w bush being ahead in the early july polls, you have to go all the way back to the end of the 20th century, beginning of the 20 century to find a republican ahead at this 0.24 years, at this particular point, the idea that a democrat is ahead, there are voters and the electric who are dealing with a pole position. they have never seen before. and that is a republican leading. and the national popular vote, at least according to very unusual situation. one thing i will point out by maybe talking about the primaries in 2020 where he did not do well in iowa and new hampshire. and then he ended up with the nomination. but that's a different animal that is a vastly different animal than at any kind of a general can set it correct. in fact, if you were to look back at the 2020 national democratic primary

polls, they mostly had biden had except for that little small portion, right when he lost iowa and then lost the new hampshire and then lost nevada. >> but overall, those primary polls had in my head and then he one and certainly when it came to the general election at the poles always had you bind him. there wasn't a single-pole them at cnn standards for publication that ever had donald trump ahead and 2020. and now you have a slew of them. and the average, of course definitely has donald trump ahead history. what he says it is on this front, harryette, and thank you very much. thank you. okay all right. joining us right now is the democratic senator from pennsylvania, john fetterman, who was one of the first and fiercer supporters of president biden in the wake the cnn debate. and what that analysis kind of gets to moving away from the polls senator, it gets to the questions and concerns surrounding president biden still his ability to continue running when and serve another four years you were with the president during his stops in pennsylvania yesterday what did you see being with him yeah, i

actually spent the entire day with the president and he was he was perfect whether it was in philadelphia, or whether it was in harrisburg at every single stop that we had people were thrilled. >> i mean, people were thirsty to have their picture taken with the president and he was chris and he was engaged and the harrisburg event, it was actually in the 90s and he was crushing he was just doing fine. it was like a perfect normal kinds of joe biden that i've always seen. and he has to be really happy after that day because whether we went it was there all great events did he falter at all? >> did your interaction with him bring you any pause? >> no, not not at all. not not at all he was he was fully engaged, whether in private conversations that i had or publicly are interacting with

the public anywhere at that the point he was just regular joe and joe that i recognize. >> you have five democrats who have come out publicly to say they believe that you need a new democratic nominee in order to run. and when there were calls yesterday, a high level call among house democrats hosted by the democratic minority leader hakeem jeffries to kind of take the temperature and i want to read you what some of cnn's reporting from that call, which is one of the concerns expressed during the nearly two-hour call, was that democrats will lose their chance at the house majority if biden is the candidate, one of the sources said adding that it will it was generally acknowledged the nominee should be vice president kamala harris, one of the people that cnn has learned was expressing that concern is pennsylvania democrat susan wild, concern that if biden stays in its

threatens, their chin chances to win back the majority in the house. do you see that concern? what do you say to that well, like chris, i'm a big big fan of representative while of course, and she's in an a difficult ratio, always issues in a really, really purple districts. >> so others always things in play here. but regardless, i don't agree with any of the things that were said. and i want to see more people if you really want to say those things, put your name attached to that rather than some kinds of leaking from a private meeting as well. but it's just a couple emergence of the house. and i believe joe biden is actually the right democrat right now. and also i'd like to point out that sleepy joe put trump to bed in 2020 and i believe he can do this in 24. it's going to be close every time trump's going to be in this ballot. it was going to be true in 2016. i've been saying

that same and 20 and same and 24 and your your i guess that was before me. he was talking about he was underestimated and things yeah. he wasn't. it's going to be close as well. and we were supposed to get wrecked and 22 and we actually went great so i i'm not a pulled the denier, but i just don't think that this is the true picture of where we're at right now. and joe biden had a great day yesterday and that's why i'm going to stand with him others. >> there are other democrats who are not necessarily saying that joe biden should step aside, but they are still not yet convinced that biden has done enough to prove that he's still got it. i want to play for you you senator chris murphy, and also adam schiff. listen personally. >> i love joe biden. i don't know that the interview on friday night did enough to answer those questions. and so i think this week is going to be absolutely critical. i think

the president needs to do more given joe biden incredible record, given donald trump's terrible record he should be mopping the floor with donald trump joe biden is running against a criminal. it should not be even close. and there's only one reason it is close. and that's the president's age one of the things that chris murphy is saying is that he believes that this week is a critical one for joe biden to prove his doubters wrong. >> do you agree that this week is critical to decide what direction this candidacy is going to go. >> i don't agree. i don't agree with that because it's joe campaign and his campaign is now it's going to continue through november. he's going to be our guy. that's our guy where the we go to chicago and whether we go to to the end in november, that's our guy. and

i have a lot of esteem for my colleague from connecticut. but i just happen to disagree on that as well, too. and that's where we're at on that and at least to his credit, he's willing to put his name to his words on that. but joe biden has been a great good president as he's acknowledged that. and i'm not going to chuck him for a rough debate. i know that better than anybody. so that's where we happen to disagree on that point. >> one final thing cena is also had reporting that biden told democratic governors last week that part of his plan going forward is to scott to stop scheduling events after 8:00 p.m. so that he can get more sleep can he or any president be effective if they have, if they have a cutoff time of 8:00 p.m. every night. i mean, what happens when something does happen late he seems to now be admitting that he's not at his best, then i really i'm not sure if that's even even true. i can't really bored on that,

but again, if he if he has a bedtime okay. but he is isn't a liger like trump. and any inland trump is all about project 2025. i mean, that's what we really should be voting on right now. it's like do we want the kind of a president that is all about project 25 and anyone can read on that because that's what trump is all about that as well. and again, if somebody wants to be outraged about some, some random story about bedtime, okay. but i, my money is going to be on the guy that just worked his in 2020 and he's going to do it in this time again. >> senator john fetterman. thank you very much for coming on center. it's good to see you jon all right. >> we have new reporting this morning on how hard it can be to keep the weight off if even after enjoying success with one of the popular new weight loss drugs soon as make two rho who's done so much great reporting on this is with us

this morning. what have you learned? make well, john, we know that millions of americans have started taking these new medicines like ozempic, mounjaro. we go v and zepbound. and there are a lot of reasons, unfortunately, when people have to stop, when they don't want to, one is that these can be very expensive and insurance coverage is difficult. another is sometimes people don't like the side effects or can't tolerate them, things like nausea, particularly when you're first starting the drug. these drugs have also been in shortage. they can be very frustrating and hard to find in pharmacies and forth. some people just don't want to take a medicine for the rest of their lives. here's one person's experiences six months after stopping mounjaro that's pretty happy. >> not too long ago to be able to bench press my body weight which is something that i. had never been able to do for a really long time these days, brad olson works out for more than an hour-and-a-half a day. >> he hikes lifts, weights, and

he's totally changed how he eats there's really no fast food or restaurant leftovers anymore it's all an effort to maintain the weight he lost taking mounjaro, one of a new group of drugs similar to ozempic, that millions of americans have recently started to try super-easy. click like that, and then you just toss him he took the drug for five months, losing 40 pounds. and i just felt like, well, i could do this temporarily and then maybe i could come off and like hold on to the gains, you know, if it works, what did your doctor thank of that plan? he thought that was not a great plan. >> brands. weight peaked in 2009 at 280 pounds. he says he was 100 pounds over a healthy weight. >> i got to be so big that i couldn't go out. i couldn't run with the kids. you know, it was it was it was maybe a little scary and that part but just make me feel so frustrated and angry at myself. i mean, i would experience a certain

amount of self-loathing he describes the feeling when he started the drug as a kind of revelation. you eat and eat about half of it and kind of get like that's enough and that just never happened to me before. sort of like just dawns on you where you're like, wait, is this what it's like for everybody else? like like and then kind of feeling like i've been you know gambling against the casino my whole life but he's insurance didn't cover it a problem for many people on these drugs and had about $1,000 a month out of pocket. >> brad says he could only budget it for so long the evidence for what happens when you stop these drugs is not on brad side. >> i don't think it's fair to say it's about willpower dr. jorge moreno is an obesity specialist at yale medicine for people who do come off of it. have you had patients who've been able to sustain their results over a longer period of time without the drug yes.

>> i would say that that's a minority of the patients weight regain is also just like weight loss. heterogeneous, and that is where more research needs to be done. why is the one patient able to keep the weight off after coming off these medications and y are some people gaining all the way back brad is trying to beat the odds, but it hasn't been easy i came away feeling like if i gain it back. >> soviet, back, you know, i'm doing the best i can and then i think i also, you know, now find myself revisiting a lot of decisions i would make not to allow myself to experience something because i was fat and just kinda saying like don't do that again whatever you look like, don't do that again and you can see how hard brad is working to try to sustain these results. >> he is planning on climbing

mount whitney, one of the highest peaks in the united states. but this is really hard and it shows just how complicated weight and weight loss can be, guys, i mean, studies show people typically regain half to two-thirds of the weight that they lost over the following year after stopping one of these medicines. but steady did show 17% of people maintained at least 80% of their weight loss. so it can be done it's just really, really hard. and what we learned from brad as he's being kinder to himself, no matter what happens. and that seemed like a really important take. the way. >> that is important. he's trying send our best to him. thanks so much for that store. i really appreciate it so boeing agrees to plead guilty to conspiracy to defraud the united states but the families of crash victims are furious and they're calling this a sweetheart deal and blistering and deadly heat wave is still days away from easing up out west. >> gutman i love milwaukee.

west similarly, getting no relief from record-breaking heat yesterday, las vegas smashed. it's all time heat record reaching 120 degrees. one person was killed, another person hospitalized from the extreme heat and death valley, california temperatures there reached 100 129 and saturday sunday seen as a tasha can is tracking all of this for us and it sounds like you're not getting any relief anytime soon. what's the latest yeah. kate, we were out all weekend talking to people in the los angeles area, just trying to stay cool and wild temperatures have it 100 before, especially in the valley hear the duration is really what is making this so difficult if we can just take a look at a few different cities that have hit all-time records or daily records. we sought las vegas, hit its hottest temperature ever on record, one-twenty on sunday and it has been over 110 degrees in vegas every day

since wednesday. that is the longest stretch of that kind of heat ever for that city. you mentioned death valley hitting 128 on sunday. it could hit 130 by tuesday. and that is over the weekend where we saw a motorcyclist die from heat exposure few other motorcyclists were treated on seen some others taken to the hospital, and authority said that due to the high temperatures emergency medical flights helicopters were unable to respond as they generally can't fly over 100 for 20 degrees. and then in portland, you saw 100 degrees as well we also are seeing the cdc and other federal agencies start to track just out of 100,000 overall er visits in a given area, how many of those are heat-related illnesses? and just looking at the data from friday to saturday, i did see those numbers tick up and they especially marked areas on the along the west coast where there were surprisingly high number of those heat-related er

visits, a one spot in nevada, one spot in oregon. now, the multi-day nature of this is really what's creating a difficult situation, not just high temperatures during the day, but high overnight lows as well. so not really giving people enough adequate break to really get cool from this heat or get any relief from it. of course, very dangerous for firefighting as well. you've got several large wildfires up and down the west coast right now, including the lake fire in santa barbara, that is near what is now sycamore valley ranch. what you might know previously as never land ranch and not in danger at the moment, but us it's for service, didn't say that that ranch does have some firefighting capacity themselves. it's very interesting as we just observe these dry hot conditions that people are just trying to get relief from and staying safe from kate natasha. >> thank you so much. junk. >> or i knew this morning the israeli military has announced

it is launching a new counterterrorism operation in gaza city. the israel defense forces says, intelligence indicated, quote terrorist infrastructure, operatives in weapons in the area. the idf also announced a new round of evacuation orders for eastern gaza city ahead of the operation, let's go to cnn's jeremy diamond, live in jerusalem with the latest here. good morning, jeremy good morning, john, the israeli military, once again, launching an operation in gaza city, putting troops on the ground as it plays this constant game, it seems of whack-a-mole in the absence it's of a long-term strategy in gaza military analysts say that the israeli military is continuing to have to go back to areas of gaza that it has previously withdrawn from as hamas regroups and re-establishes its stuff in those areas. and the israeli military then sending troops in once again, it seems like the only thing that could stop this constant in cycle would be a ceasefire in gaza. and we know that those negotiations have picked up steam. once again, late last

week, it appears that israel and hamas arriving at more or less of a framework agreement to now be able to proceed with those detailed negotiations which are expected to continue this week in doha, qatar. but as all of that is happening, the israeli prime minister benjamin netanyahu once again, throwing what could potentially be a wrench in the process as he seems to be putting the interests of holding onto power and his coalition government keeping his right-wing allies happy over the fate of these negotiations in a statement over the weekend, the israeli prime minister's office saying that any deal that will proceed will be one that will quote, allow is where israel to resume fighting until all of the objectives of the war have been achieved. a very much a signal that this ceasefire deal, if it, if it materializes, will not lead to an end of the war for which may be a problem as far as hamas is considered, john, wright, jeremy diamond doing great work in jerusalem, jeremy, thank you so much. a new our of cnn
