clips. and these are what are really blowing up on social media. their edits, fan cams and it's basically like modern day political ads made by every everyday voters that go crazy viral overnight. >> i mean, how game-changing though can get these younger voters come out and actually do vote the margins could be pretty notable. >> that's gonna be the big question whether or not these folks come out and vote, because what we see is they only make up about 16% of registered voters, 13% of likely voters. why do we see that shrinkage from likely vote? voters to register voters? because look at this the number of young folks generation z who say that they're almost certain to come out and vote. what we see as that number is significantly lower than the percentage is overall for the overall public. so the question is, can they motivate them? will have to wait and see we will harry enten jewels >> for the first time on the show. thank you for being here. thank you so much for joining us. the news continues right here on cnn law and welcome to all you watching us here in the

united states, canada, and around the world. >> i'm kim brunhuber. >> this is cnn newsroom kamala harris narrows the gap against donald trump as the presumptive democratic nominee sharpens her campaign on the national and global stage. >> us authorities arrest too high profile drug cartel kingpins of details on their capture ahead and the olympics opening ceremony is just hours away. we're live in paris for all the action live from atlanta. this is cnn newsroom with kim brunhuber we begin with the race for the white house as kamala harris as presidential campaign takes form, cnn has learned that former us president barak obama is expected to endorse her soon. >> the high profile support coincides with new polling shows harris narrowing the gap with republican nominee donald trump a senior administration official says, the vice president is making moves to prove herself to the american

people. moves that include a forceful address after her meeting with the israeli prime minister on thursday, tackling a foreign policy issue. solo, harris made her stance on the war in gaza, it clear to netanyahu here she is as i just told prime minister netanyahu, it is time to get this deal done. let's get the deal done. so we can get a ceasefire to end the war. let's bring the hostages home and let's provide much needed relief to the palestinian people meanwhile, amid racist and sexist attacks from right-wing figures, harris is taking on donald trump with a new ad. >> have a look in this election. >> we each face a question, what kind of country do we want to live in? and the democratic candidate dropped her first presidential campaign advertisement using beyonce is freedom track and now harris says she's ready to debate trump, even though his campaign hasn't committed to any future debates until the democratic party formally chooses its

nominee. >> but harris is signaling that it's game on who she is. >> i have agreed to the previously agreed upon september 10 debate. he agreed to that previously. now, it appears he is backpedaling, but i'm ready and i think the voters deserve to see this split-screen that exists in this race on a debate stage. and so i'm ready. let's go all this comes as a new york times and siena college poll indicates there's no clear leader in the presidential race among registered voters, trump is polling at 48% with harris at 46% in the margin of error is just over 3% vice president is facing criticism from another woman who once fought tooth and nail against donald trump, former republican presidential candidate nikki haley tells cnn's jake tapper, she hasn't surprised president joe biden dropped out of the race here she is there is an issue that we have in dc where people will go into office and they won't let go. >> and then their staffers and

their family keep propping him up and it's a problem for the american people. and so i never thought he would make it to the election. i always said a vote for joe biden is a vote for kamala harris. and i think that's what's playing now other republicans of attack, the vice president as a dei candidate, which would suggest she got her job because of her gender or race. haley, who recently endorsed trump says, there are better ways for republicans to go after harris it's not helpful. >> look, i mean, we're talking about a liberal senator who literally has not accomplished very much. and what she was giving. she didn't do much with you, don't need to talk about what she looks like or what gender she is to talk about that the american people are smarter than that he lead, didn't offer any apology for her attacks against trump, which included calling him unhinged and lacking moral clarity. but she dismissed that criticism is campaign rhetoric now, harris doesn't have much time to make one of her most important decisions yet to picking a running mate. cnn's

jeff zeleny takes a look at the top contenders the first big solo decision of kamala harris's new campaign could be less than two weeks away. >> it's one of the most accelerated vice presidential searches in modern american history, with harris racing to round out our ticket. well before the democratic convention opens in chicago on august 19th, top contenders hail from some of the biggest battlegrounds, like senator mark kelly of arizona, a former astronaut and navy pilot, governor roy cooper of north carolina, a former attorney general, elected six times statewide, and pennsylvania governor josh shapiro, another the former attorney general, who has won statewide three times, also on the list transportation secretary pete buttigieg, a 2020 rival, who now cause michigan home. minnesota governor tim walz, a veteran and former teacher who served more than a decade in congress and governor andy beshear of kentucky, a rare

democrat elected in a deep breath. but state the search is well underway through private vetting and somewhat public auditions. >> this is the vice president's 15th trip to the most military and veteran friendly state in the country harris has a long relationship with cooper a few sibley praising him just last week in fayetteville, my dear friend, roy cooper and i served together when i was attorney dana california, he was attorney down on north carolina. >> i've known him for almost two decades and he is an extraordinary leader, but the vice president is not tipping her hand to any favorites among the contenders all of whom rushed to endorse her after president biden stepped aside, we've been friends for 20 years she's an outstanding vice president. >> shapiro has drawn even more attention considering pennsylvania is at the heart of any winning white house bid, a point he downplays in choosing a running mate that is a deeply

personal decision that should be made free from any political pressure. only harris can say how geography biography feet before other personal factors, way i'm her decision. >> so help you god. >> i do bachelet on capitol hill this week, kelly was not eager to talk about any vice presidential shortlist. again, this is not a felony this is about the, future of this country. >> buttigieg, less so i think anybody would be flattered to be mentioned in that context, no matter what. i'm going to be doing, everything in my power to make sure that she's our next president for harris. >> it's all part of her whirlwind and a bookend moment for years after answering the call from biden to be his running mate you ready to go to work? she's getting ready to make a call of her own the vice president has set a goal of finding a running mate by august 7, leaving less than two weeks to make that all important choice. now, we do know that former attorney general eric holder is leading this process. i'm told teams

of lawyers are going through financial records, voting records, any public statements, any of these candidates have made. but the reality is this is a truncated process. it's also going to culminate in conversations between the vice president and potential candidates as well. of course, she wants to get a feel for them in a way only that she can the reality to all of this as though she has relationships with each one of these candidates. she's been traveling around the country, of course, with them. so who she feels comfortable with and who's a governing partner. i'm told will be your guiding light jeff zeleny, cnn washington israeli prime minister benjamin netanyahu is scheduled to travel to mar-a-lago today to meet with donald trump, the republican presidential nominee, comes as netanyahu is facing growing pressure to secure a deal for a ceasefire in gaza and the release of the hostages he's israeli leader held talks with us president joe biden at the white house on thursday before the two met with families of hostages, some family members said after the meeting that they haven't been this hopeful

in months that a ceasefire deal could happen. alright, want to go live to london now and cnn's salma abdelaziz. so salma, the pressure growing on netanyahu from president biden, from kamala harris, who's been more outspoken even than the president. and from the hostages families as well. >> right? you have a prime minister, netanyahu, who is waiting straight into the drama that is american politics this week, he met yesterday, as you mentioned, with president biden and vice president kamala harris. of course, the presumptive democratic nominee, two very different meetings you saw that meeting with president biden where prime minister netanyahu seemed to be thinking came on the way out saying thank you for 50 years of support, thank you for 50 years of friendship behind closed doors, we understand that president biden continued to put the pressure on getting that ceasefire deal done, just to remind our viewers, we're talking about a six week deal that's been on the table now for months, it's an effort led by us negotiators in the aim is that hostages would be traded

for palestinian prisoners. and that a ceasefire on the ground would mean israeli troops could potentially pull out of some areas. but throughout these negotiations, prime minister netanyahu has been accused of dragging his feet, of prolonging the fighting to maintain political power some of the hostage families actually met with prime minister netanyahu yesterday. they expressed hope and optimism that things are moving forward. i want you to take a listen to one of the fathers of the who's hostages. take a listen we got absolute commitment from the biden administration and from prime minister netanyahu that they understand the urgency of this moment. >> now, to waste no time and to complete this deal as it currently stands, with as little change is humanly possible now, netanyahu will meet with trump at mar-a lago today. >> that will, of course, also be a significant meeting. yet

another figure who could potentially be president in just a matter of months it's time and if he was expecting if netanyahu was expecting a softer stance from trump, it doesn't seem that that's what he's going to get trump yesterday made comments saying he needs to get this done in reference to the conflict in gaza. so you are really looking at a prime minister netanyahu, who arrived in the united states to ask for more help, more support fort for his war in gaza. but his confronted by presidential candidates and a political establishment that is fed up and saying, this is enough, we need to see this conflict end, can appreciate that salma abdelaziz in london and last hour i spoke with sanam vakil, the director for the middle east and north africa programme at chatham house. >> and she outlined the challenges negotiators face in securing a gaza ceasefire and hostage deal issues then negotiators from the u.s. from qatar from egypt had been working around the clock to try

to secure that deal. but without that deal in hand it's it's really hard to believe that it's possible and for the time being, it does not yet look like israel or hamas is willing to make the compromises needed to get that ceasefire over the line president biden, trying to push compromises when it came up in a press conference, whether press whether president biden's decision to withdraw from the race would impede his ability to either help secure a ceasefire and hostage deal for gaza. >> the white house obviously says it won't. do you think it will well, i think it could actually allow president biden to work without pressure. >> he's not a lame-duck. he has gravitas as a world leader and perhaps now unchained from the presidential cycle. he can speak more openly about why this is more important. already, vice president kamala harris has made it an issue.

she's come out and been much more forthright and much more critical about the israeli position and prioritized the loss of life, the need for humanitarian provision. it looks like she's turning the page on biden's approach and is very cognizant that this can become a very divisive, electorial issue. and going into september with schools going back and campus protests potentially coming back she's conscious that she needs to take a more forthright position. >> yeah. her her separate meeting with netanyahu was, of course, under the spotlight given the new context of her importance. as were her comments, i just want to play one here. listen to this what. has happened in gaza over the past nine months is devastating. the images of dead children and desperate, hungry people fleeing for safety.

sometimes displaced for the second, third, or fourth time we cannot look away in the face of these tragedies we cannot allow ourselves to become numb to the suffering. and i will not be silent. >> so you spoke of a certain amount of daylight between biden and harris on this issue. how much is there do you think and what difference might it make for israel in terms of an urgency to get a deal done now well, i think actually from israel's perspective, getting a deal done immediately is certainly in its interest going into the fall. as this issue becomes much more heated and tied to the u.s political campaign. i think president vice president kamala harris might be more forthright and more critical of israel's position and push israel and perhaps condition israel's access to military hardware in the united states to a change in tactic and posture. they

conditions in gaza are devastating. there is a humanitarian catastrophe and we are looking away. it's been nine long devastating months, and the war continues know. >> could even continue longer because of her comments, according to hot, it's a senior israeli diplomatic figure said of kamala harris's comments. it's to be hoped that the vice president's comments at the press conference aren't interpreted by hamas it's meaning that there's daylight between the united states and israel, which would make a deal less likely. so basically claiming there that her comments could actually delay a deal. is that just spin? >> i think that is fan i think that at the same time the united states continues to demonstrate and i think she will also that there is a strong partnership based on values, history, trust between israel and the u.s us

hours still the opening ceremonies and it's already off to a controversial start a spy scandal involving canadians. i have to admit was not on my olympic bingo card here no, i have to say kim waking up on this long awaited friday morning here in paris, it's been 100 years since paris, last hosted this summer olympic games. >> this is not how the organizers wanted it to go. as you rightly mentioned, these stories of these malicious attacks on the railway lines were seeing pictures emerging from paris mom montparnasse station with thousands of people stranded. the authorities saying, as you mentioned, these delays likely to impact the next couple of days here in paris and across from and this is an opening

ceremonies, particularly here in paris that they've said wouldn't they wanted to be to bring in the people. and obviously with three hundred thousand spectators are expected to line the banks of the river seine. we await to see what disruption that news this morning we'll have and will bring and then of course, it is raining. this certainly wasn't on the agenda. the word from this pause ministry is that they will not let it affect what they hope to be a spectacular opening ceremony. they say, we will just have to sing in the rain. one of the big questions is who will it be singing in the rain? i don't know whether you have seen celine dion recently. i haven't managed to set eyes on here in paris, but lots of suggestions that she and lady gaga will be performing at this unique, never seen before. the

olympic opening ceremony with a 100 boats carrying the 206 teams along this six kilometer journey. through the rivers, saying there's going to be dancers on the bridge's, we know lebron james of course, is going to be carrying the u.s. flag alongside coco gauff for the irony, real the leader of that phrase that i said does talk about being this an opening ceremony that is going to bring the games to the people, the security levels around paris over the last couple of days really have been unprecedented. we know there's always heightened security around an olympic games, but this is the seventh olympics that i've covered in person. i have never seen security like what we've had to deal with moving around paris in the last couple of days and estimated 40,000 security and police officials have been brought into the area to help keep everything safe and secure.

that of course the priority and despite the negative stories that we are talking about this morning, there really is a desire particularly in this first olympic games, since the covid pandemic and covid restrictions that things do go off smoothly without a hitch even if the weather isn't playing its part? >> yeah, absolutely. all right. so it'll be fascinating to see amanda davis in paris. thank you so much. appreciate so just 20-years-old coco gauff is the reigning us open champion in the world number two player. now the american tennis star is gearing up to make her olympic debut in paris. plus, as we mentioned, she's it's going to be carrying the flag for team usa along and be icon lebron james and our coy wire caught up with her to ask how she's processing at all issues i'm sure he's very excited to be here at her first olympics and it's pretty special moment. i want you to walk me through this moment here thing because you are so special. >> you who have the honor of

wearing this jackie during the opening ceremony and maggie flag bearer was abroad, django was going through your mind at this point? >> at this point, i just thought, you know, chris is like a brother to me and he always talks about how proud he is of me. and so i thought he was just doing a little bit it two rich talking and then yeah, once i got told that i was gonna be flag bearer, obviously you can see by the reaction i was just shocked and i didn't really know what to say. i think a lot of people were laughing at me saying, oh, because it really didn't know have you started the process yet that you will be rep. in your country alongside lebron james. >> know, i like i don't know when i'm going to meet him, but i'm like already like stressed about it really. >> so you've never met him before? no. no, i've never met before. i'm excited to meet him and i'm excited to be flag-bearers alongside him. there's no other athlete i think i would have chosen to do this with you, talk about the racquet has the potential to change the world as divisive as

times are right now with everything going on, what do you make of it all? and also, what are your hopes for the games potential ability to bring people together. that's what sports can do. >> yeah, i just hope that be being a person representing team usa and i think all of the i don't want to speak on behalf all olympians on the team you say, but i feel like majority of them agree that we all just want to promote positivity. through our game and through our sport and thorough competing. and i think that we all just wanted to show how passionate we are in share that passion with a supporters that we have that hopefully have a lot of success to for more on the olympic games in paris, we're joined now by cnn sports analyst christine brennan, who is live in paris. >> okay. christine, i just want to start with the news here. the disruptions that we've seen to the train system acts that authorities say we're sabotage it just from what you've seen so far, what impact is that having? and do we know who's behind it and what the motive

might be kim, right now, i think we're just trying to learn as much as we can and obviously have of course responsible reporting. >> but what it can mean is not only for putin potentially the movement of teams or athletes were trying to figure that out. of course but also for fans. and we know that there are thousands of fans who have come into paris for this one event. as amanda was saying, the first i'm in 100 years, paris, the beautiful city hosting the olympic games. this has been discussed for years. this is the first non-covid olympics, even though but we're still in covid, but in terms of testing and masks, the first time since 2018 that the olympics does not have to worry about all of that. the way we did in tokyo and in beijing for the winter olympics and yet now here i am standing in licht missed the rain, of course, which could impact the san river opening ceremony two who knows to what degree? and then also can fans

actually then get to their places with the way the train situation is. so olympics is like any other sporting event a world cup is in many different cities here we are all focused on paris. the world comes to paris, the athletes comes to, come to paris. all the fans and to hear about any disruption. of course it can be a very difficult time and we will of course, continue to report on this in the hours ahead yeah. >> dirty. christina, obviously a huge concern already we had that elevated terrorist threats, just an adding now these act of sabotage. so how, how big is the security presence there? you've covered your share of olympics before. so is it the same as previous events or is it a different order of magnitude this time? >> this is actually my 21st in a row going back to la in 1984, i started in kindergarten, i think certainly this is as

beautiful and it's noteworthy, has city has hosted the olympic games have been some amazing ones but the presence is extraordinary. at my hotel, which is right across the street from the main press center. so it is an important area of focus, certainly of security. really for the last i'd say 48 hours, i have watched security guards in front of my hotel with holding machine guns with their finger on the trigger. i don't know that i've ever seen that maybe athens in 2004, which was it's the first summer olympics after 911 but it that's that's amazing, but it's also smart and it's necessary because of what a target and olympic games can be i was over by the opera the intercontinental hotel yesterday and watched at least 20 officers come through with machine guns, just walking down the street i think what we interpreted it to be at that moment was a sign of a show of

just the strength and that would be an area with there are certainly many dignitaries, so yes, there's a presence, but paris is still paris and i think that's an important thing to say. it's still this beautiful city. i know. >> i'm so jealous i have to say, listen, we spent all this time, we haven't actually talked sports here. so let's talk sports for team usa across the olympics. what kind of games do you predict will see? how will the u.s. do and who will shine? >> i think the u.s. will do very well obviously, american athletes care incredibly about the olympic games in focus. three years in this case, from tokyo in 2021 now to paris. but because it's only three years as opposed to four, you'll see more familiar names. i mean just in a little bit easier to make it again in three years, it's not easy by any means game, but it is. you'll see some of the carryover and certainly the two biggest names for the u.s in terms going into these games. simone biles, the gymnast coming back after an

incredible olympics in rio in 2016, then the difficulties with mental health the twisties, all the things we learned about she was so honest and so forthcoming three years ago she is back better than ever. i expect her to win several gold metals lead the u.s. to the gymnastics his team gold and simone herself, to be able to come back and win the individual all around. but lots of pressure on her as well. and then moving to the pool, katie ledecky, they're great kids the ledecky and her fourth olympic games. she will be swimming tomorrow morning and in the women's 400 freestyle, that is one she probably will not win, but she will, the longer the racist go the better katie ledecky does. and the 800 meters to 1,500 meters, those are her babies and she should win both of those gold metals and also win a medal the us women's for by 200 freestyle relay so katie ledecky and is a veteran but still doing great. and here's the great thing about both of them. simone biles, katie ledecky, they were born within three days of each

other in march of 1997, what a week that was four american sports? >> absolutely. >> as you well know, every olympic games has its share of unique stories. i can't wait to see how these ones unfold. christine brennan, thanks again for coming on with us. sure. >> my pleasure. thank you. >> all right. and we just want to give you a programming note for all of you on cnn international and cnn max, you can tune into our special one-hour program aiming for goal. this friday, seven in the evening, paris time, let's 1:00 p.m. eastern in new york. and you can join cnn's amanda davis wants a bell and coy wire to share the excitement of the opening ceremony alright, still ahead russia and china stage a joint show of force by sending their bombers near alaska why the u.s. is concerned, even though it says the flight itself wasn't a threat, will explain coming up still
