enforcement may be local law enforcement knows who this individual is and maybe there no factor, but this is very, very common practice that the secret service does engage win, but the whole point here, anderson, is for the eighth agents and officers to work in a unified, coordinated manner to address these. this anomalous behavior, to ensure that it's not a threat. and now when we look at a timeline you know, that that has multiple points that they could have intervened in, didn't that's really disturbing and evan did the documents released by the center's office have anything about it? >> tendency plan for an active shooter situation? >> yes, they do. and that's one of the things that you watch. they have a plan for looking out for drones. this is something that the shooter did. he was flying a drone about two hours before the former president took the stage. we also know that one of the things that they were preparing for it was a loan active shooter. this is exactly what crooks was and you don't one of the things you see in the plan,

you see that you see them trying to lay out what the plans fans were for dealing with this contingency anderson and it appears all of that fell apart no jonathan wackrow, appreciate evan perez as well. >> thanks so much. that's it for us. the news continues right here on cnn outfront. >> next, an exclusive interview with jd vance's former yale law school classmate and close friend sophia nelson, who vance refers to as so sharing more than 80 emails without trend vans and those emails taking on trump, the police, maga voters we'll share them with you. plus kamala harris is momentum raising record cash, doubling down on calling trump and vance flat-out weird, that's the word they're using. now republicans are trying to turn the tables. >> will it work? >> and kim jong un's tonight preparing his daughter, his young daughter, to take over the country this daughter is not even teenager yet and it comes as new details emerge about just how poor kim's

health is let's go outfront and good evening. i'm erin burnett outfront tonight. will the real j.d. vance please stand up tonight, an exclusive interview with jd vance's former classmate and close friend sophia nelson someone vance refers to lovingly as soaps in some of the more than 80 emails they wrote each other, that nelson has shared without front now, most of these emails have never been seen before. and their emails in which vance rights openly about hating trump. he goes after some trump supporters as racist and even go so far as to say he hates police. we're going to dive into these emails along with are many questions for sophia nelson in just a moment. but, these revelations come as vice president kamala harris and potential running mates see an opening when it comes to j.d vance, here's the governor of michigan, gretchen whitmer, just moments ago at harris rally he's scared of us because democrats, we want

everyone to have a seat at the table i mean, even cat lovers and dog lovers alliance grandma always said i needed to find at least one good thing about every person. so i'll give jd this he is officiant in one sentence, he insulted women, black people, and jewish people all right. >> vance's big debut as trump's running mate has been off to a rocky start as people are questioning what he really believes and what he really stands for. in one of the emails that sophia nelson shares with us from 2014, vance writes, quote, i hate the police, given the number of negative negative experiences, i've had in the past few years. i can't imagine what a black guy goes through. you had after being selected as trump's running mate. this is what vance has to say about police they are protectors and

we back the blue in this country and then there's another email, this one's from 2016. >> it's never been made public before j.d vance writes this about trump quote, i hate him and what he represents. >> well, of course that we now know to be very different from how vance speaks about trump. >> now president trump represents america's last best hope to restore. what if lost, may never be found again and vance has also spoken disparagingly of trump supporters. >> so this is a 2016 email that he writes to sofia saying a quote, disproportionate number of trump i'm supporters have quote, racially offensive views. those are the same supporters, of course he is now according himself you guys, i love you. >> i wouldn't be here without you. >> alright. outfront now, sophia nelson, vance's former yale classmate, and a close friend. and this is sophia's first national television interview and an outfront exclusive sophie, i really

appreciate your taking the time here to share these things and i know that you took a lot of thought to decide to do this. you and j.d. vance, of course, we're friends, close friends so i understand your transgender public defender in detroit, vance now is one of the republican party's staunchest culture warriors. so when you look at what you're seeing now, sophia, j.d. vance running as trump's vice president do you see any of the same person that you knew in law school first of all, thanks for having me tonight. >> erin. no, i don't see any of the man that i got to know and care about. it's really heartbreaking to see him become so callous and divisive so i want to go to some of these, these emails that we're grateful you shared with me. >> it's important for people to understand sophia, who he is and who he was one of your emails from him this never before published, vance says and november of 2016? and i

quote, i really see the racially offensive views of trump's supporters, not all of them, of course, but it certainly disproportionate as co-existing rather than driving his support i guess let me just ask the question to you this way. sophia, then, because this is an email and you had many conversations with him to advance, believe that donald trump himself was racist my understanding is that he certainly did, yes and so, you know do you recall any of the conversations you had the two of you on topics like that? i mean, in a series of emails that i've shared with you, he's called trump morally reprehensible, a very bad man. and he indicated that he wishes trump would tone down the racism that all indicates to me that vance was well aware that trump traffic and racism and that certainly not all i agree with. jd. they're not all

it's the people that voted for donald trump are racist i know they know. certainly there are many people who voted for brock obama and then voted for donald trump however, there is extreme undertones of prejudice, racism transphobia, homophobia, islamophobia that drive the maga movement, and is now something that j.d. vance himself is trafficking in. >> i want to ask you about some of that in a moment. first though, on the issue of race, i know that vance expressed to you an openness on the issue of reparations, which obviously is anathema to the trump position, the maga position. he also expressed sympathy for the black lives matter movement and in one exchange with you in these emails, you shared with us, sophia, he was reacting to the killing of michael brown, the 18-year-old black man who was shot by a white police officer in ferguson, missouri. so this is an email all the way back from 2014, october vance rights. you quote, i hate the police, given the number of

negative experiences, i've had in the past few years, i can't imagine what a black guy goes through. we just heard a moment ago, vance call police are protectors and we back the blue in this country but, but, but, but, but sophia for you, how passionate was he? >> on the issue of police bias and brutality at the time, i believe jd was genuine in the email that you just quoted, and it certainly reflects my experience as a public defender here in detroit i watched body-worn cameras every day and represent people who the police treat with callous disregard and excessive force. and i think it's a huge problem in this country and we see it regularly young woman was just murdered in her own home there has been rallies around that recently i knew jd to be a genuine, thoughtful person who is compassionate towards people who are different from him. and that email, i believe at the time, genuine reflected his views so let me ask you about

this because when you talk about the kind of person that you believed him to be, we do did reach out to vance's office for a comment on your decision to publicly share your correspondence with him with us. >> and here's what a spokesperson for vance says, sophia, they say, quote, it's unfortunate this individual chose to leak decade old private conversations between friends. senator vance values his friendships with individuals across the political spectrum. he has been open about the fact that some of his views from a decade ago began to change after becoming a dad and starting a family. and he's thoroughly explained why he changed his mind on president trump. despite their disagreements senator vance cares for sofia and wishes sofia the very best. now, i want to ask you about that last sentence in just a moment. sophia, if i may, but first what he's saying here is that these issues of which we've touched on some from reparations to the police to racism that this all change because he had a family, because he became a dad. do you think that that could be the case i'm not i don't live in

jd vance's head, obviously, but what i've seen is a chameleon, someone who is able to change their positions and their values pending on what will a mask them. >> political power and wealth, and i think that's really unfortunate because it reflects a lack of integrity. this isn't someone who evolved on one or two issues and with new information, this is someone who has changed their opinion on literally every imaginable issue. that affects everyday americans in this country. and change the way they speak about people. so the j.d. vance that i was friends with for over a decade was compassionate and we've frequently disagree. that's reflected in the emails but he always approached conversations with respect and kindness, which i think is so essential and what we've seen with donald trump is a callousness and cruelty and the way he talks so while people are bullying, right, he, he's a

bully and he calls people names and when jd decided to run for the senate in 2020 he started adopting that similar persona. so anathema to who he used to be and it's reflected in his twitter. so obviously reflected in the cat ladies comment and it was reflected in our interpersonal communications and the end of our friendship he just started talking in this divisive, dismissive, and cruel way about people who are different from him and that is just not the person that i used to know. >> i want to ask you about that. first. i just want to say he wrote about you. he did feel a deep connection with you. i just want to emphasize you're talking about a 10-year friends ten years is a long time to have a deep friendship with the person you would think you know them well. he wrote about use of via in hillbilly elegy. he says, he's talking about a class and he says one of those classes, a constitutional law seminar of 16 students became a kind of family for me. we call ourselves the island of ms it's fit toys as there was no real unifying force to our

team, a conservative hillbilly from appalachia, the super smart daughter of indian immigrants, a black canadian with decade's worth of street smarts, a neuroscientist from phoenix and aspiring civil rights attorney born a few minutes from yells campus and an extremely progressive lesbian with a fantastic sense of humor among others. but we became excellent friends. now, just to be clear here, sofia, the last friend he describes is you. all right. he described you as the extremely progressive lesbian and a day after his book is published, he writes to you, he calls you soaps, which i guess was his nickname for you and and apologizes for referring to you in that way. and he goes on to say, i recognize this may not accurately reflect how you think of yourself. and for that, i'm really sorry. i hope you recognize that description came from a place of ignorance when i first started writing years ago, i hope you're not offended, but if you are, i'm sorry. love you jd so when you think about that, what does

that say about the person that you knew and the support that he i don't know. >> was it explicit? or implicitly gave to members of the lgbt community? >> well, again, the j.d vance that i was friends with, he might not have always agreed with me. we certainly again, had our differences and i didn't always agree with him, but we knew how to talk to each other respectfully with kindness and compassion, you were both raised in the midwest i'm from a small town in west michigan and i was taught we treat others how we want to be treated and so you don't have to share a face or a racial background or a political background, was your neighbors to treat them with respect and dignity? and jd reflected that and our relationship and the j.d. vance that i knew was supportive of marriage equality and had lgbtq friends myself included. and when i had gender affirming surgery in 2012, jd

delivered me baked goods when i was going through my recovery again, he didn't necessarily fully understand a transgender identity and that's fine. i don't need everyone to do that. what i need from people is a sense of decency and respect which is consistent with the midwestern values that i was raised with and why i returned to the midwest. i've lived here since 2013. this is where i was raised and the rust belt is filled with diverse group of working class people who again, we don't always agree on tax policy on whether we're cat or dog people but we know how to treat everyone with kindness and when you talk about that, he brought you baked goods when you went through gender affirming surgery and i know so figures saying that was 20 2012. >> so then you had a long time of being friends? my understanding is when vance came out in support of a state law banning gender affirming care in 2021, which is my it's when he did that and he's now

since proposed a national band is calling it called that surgery. that you went through gruesome can you share with us how you ended the friendship with him i mean, i never explicitly said we're not friends anymore and i want to be clear. >> i still care about jd and usha and their family you know deep down part of me, he's hopeful that he'll snap out of it or something. i don't know but that was incredibly hurtful and i communicated that tim, i communicated that i was disappointed that i was hurt and that i was scared because i remember what it's like to be a kid and think there's something wrong with me and that terribly scary. >> and i thought i've never going to be able to be my authentic self because it won't be safe. i won't be accepted. i won't be able to get a job and i tried to explain that to him. i told him

what i went through as a child in response to his public support of criminalizing access to gender, affirming care. and he was very dismissive. and again, the tone that i had been the basis of our friendship across political differences had completely shifted. he had gone from a compassionate, thoughtful, kind person to mimicking donald trump's derisive cruelty i have many family members and friends who are independents, who are republicans but here in the rust belt we treat everyone with kindness, and that's just, i think a core value. and it's a core value that j.d. vance has turned his back on in order to amass money and power so you mentioned the family and that you wish jd anousha. well, i know you know her well, you attended their wedding, right? she was super smart person. he is referring to in the book she was once a registered democrat, recently worked at a san

francisco law firm as you well know, sophia, but describes its culture is quote, radically progressive. she did clerk though for more conservative supreme court justices i mean there's just so many people who are so curious about her and who she really is and what she really thinks. and she's being subjected to all the things women are subjected to, whether she colors her hair and makeup and all those things that people do what, what can you tell us about or do you think she believes in what her husband is currently saying why don't think anyone knows what jd or usha belief because they have literally changed their principles and every imaginable issue however, i was never as close with usha is i was with jd. >> i will say that the woman that i knew was also incredibly kind and brilliant, a really hard worker and someone i understood to be a sentence technocrat and leaning left of

center, i would say someone who it's come out publicly was very upset and frightened by the events of january 6, as was jd at the time and so what i think is reflected in both of their changing of there are principles on every single issue is that their core value is amassing money and power, not the integrity and kindness that i think our core values of everyone in the rust belt sophia, thank you very much for sharing all of this with us. i know you did it after great consideration and i appreciate it. i know everyone watching does too, so thanks thank you for your time, erin. >> yeah, absolutely. this was a difficult decision for me because again, i do care about jd and i'm a private person. i'm not i've never been on national tv before. as is not comfortable for me. but i thought the american people had a right to know and i thought

trans kids needed to know that these maga people, they're not actually scared a few, they don't think there's anything wrong with you. they're engaged in political opportunism and you're going to be all right. all right, sophia, thank you thank you and next we do have some breaking news. >> we are just learning that one of the people who said to be on kamala harris, his shortlist for the vp has just taken him himself out of you, who this is literally just coming in here. so if he and i were speaking, plus biden making his first major trip and speech since dropping out telling the nation he's dropping out the daughter of lyndon b. johnson, president who also chose not to run for reelection, was by biden's side today and she's my guess. and also more break good news. we have new text messages and bodycam footage from the day trump was nearly assassinated and it reveals some new things

>> and now i'm finally free. take back control with lipo flavonoid by more than liebermann at the pentagon. >> this is cnn breaking news we are learning one of the men viewed as a top contender to become harris is running mate, has taken himself out of consideration a source telling cnn that the north carolina governor roy cooper expressed concern about going through the vetting process at the age of 67 at about the state's lieutenant governor performing his duties if he was pulled out of the state, jeff zeleny is outfront live from the key swing state of michigan so jeff, obviously this is a development some had pointed to north carolina as you're changing the map and that the governor there on the ticket could have assisted with that, but now he's making it clear that that will not happen. what are you learning about the veepstakes tonight erin, we know that this is just one more

example. >> this is a very accelerated search process. i'm told tonight that this decision could come within the week or it certainly before august 7. my colleague, mj lee and our reporting the north carolina governor is no longer in consideration withdrawing his name. i am told because he simply was not at the top of the list. age has been a concern i'm told from some in the harris campaign, he's 67-years-old. of course, she is trying to turn the page and look toward a more vigorous campaign and more youthful campaign. perhaps this does not mean that north carolina is not still a battleground state in the i said the harris campaign that absolutely is. it does not change the relationship. sort of ironically the governor and a vice president harris had the longest and closest relationship you shouldn't ship. we are told of any of the contenders on the list. they served as attorneys general together and their respective states. but look, every choice of a running mate is based on a variety of factors. it's based on comfort level of course, but

it's also based on what can help in this campaign. i'm told that extensive research is being done around pennsylvania governor josh shapiro, as well as arizona senator mark kelly, as well as potentially other people on that list. but those too are among the contenders. there's who are getting the closest look tonight, of course, minnesota governor tim walz has also been in the mix and the harris campaign has been very watching with interest at how he has been performing and what really has been sort of a rolling set of auditions. we saw that in pennsylvania tonight as well the governor there, josh shapiro, he said vice president harris is not only ready, she's dam ready he has been outperforming really showing what a running mate could be. but aaron, this all comes as republicans clearly have been knocked off a balance a bit by j.d. vance and some things in his history, what he has said before that is one of the reasons that even though there's surges accelerated, i'm told that everything is

being looked at very carefully. what all these candidates and potentially said. because as we know, anything that you said previously can certainly be used against you in the coming race absolutely. all right. as you stand in michigan now on the latest ap poll, i know tide and obviously biden in, but dancing mentally their prior to that thanks to jeff zeleny. okay. panel here. max rose, let me start with you i'm just going to take a pause here and say, we've really gotten a new world. we're now 67 is too old. i mean, i think we can just back off that a little bit here, but okay but reich apart now is out. he doesn't want to be considered so here we know significant betting around kelly from arizona and josh shapiro from pennsylvania among possibly others, because we tim walz pritzker, we don't know. so who do you think that she should choose? >> look, i think she needs to think about the electoral map and governor shapiro stands out in that regard. here's the interesting thing about the vice presidential decision. it is, it's an opportunity for

kamala harris to show her stature as the future president united states, and to make a decision of extraordinary significance and what everyone says, who is around two, who has seen her make very important decisions if she's going to be ruthlessly pragmatic, she's going to focus on winning and she's going to focus on the necessity for leadership in the future. and all i've collected, if you're heard is that she's she's ready to make a great decision. >> i know that you've got nothing against josh shapiro in fact, quite the contrary, but that brings you to a very different conclusion. aisha it does. >> so let me just start off by saying any of these folks that are being vetted would be great. vice president's for me though, as a democrat who thinks about the long implications of picking at our bench when he can shapiro in pennsylvania, we need mike kelly in the senate from arizona. what happens when they're gone and now we've got to replace them. i got to tell you, i'm actually team pete i think that pete buttigieg would really invigorates the base and create a historic ticket in a way that

would be impossible to beat because the democrats always, when, when we are animated and excited. and to me, having a younger brilliant person on the ticket who can speak about every issue who has experience as the mayor, who can galvanize the future of the party as a gay man, who is also a parent of toddlers, fills and checks a lot of the boxes for people that we need to get off the couch and go to the polls. >> and i will note, by the way, right. and mark kelly, the senator, you have to replace him. that's a swing state. josh shapiro is the governor of the only split legislature country that is no, no, no guarantee. which way pennsylvania would go lulu the whole situation though, actually is amazing because there's a report in the washington post that that j.d. vance actually says that he describes harris's campaign is a quote, sucker punch. so he's a private fundraiser over the weekend, apparently tells donors, quote, all of us were hit with a little bit of a political soccer pints. the bad news is that kamala harris does not have the same baggage. joe biden because whatever we might

have to say, camila is a lot younger and kamala harris is obviously not struggling in the same ways that joe biden did obviously fundraiser those moments where sometimes people can be a little maybe too honest. but lulu, he's admitting there that it's a political sucker punch saying the quiet part out loud, which has been something that the gop campaign has been doing quite a lot of recently. i mean, it's the truth. what we know about this electrode is that they did not want by enlarge these two men to run against each other. biden and former president trump and the teams. so to speak, that made the switch. what are the democrats and now you see kamala harris with a lot of enthusiasm. these numbers of enthusiasm our really important because it is going to get people off the couch. it is going to get people to you know, enthusiastically support the democratic ticket. the base certainly, and the big question is, can she bring in those voters that perhaps were on the fence? they're not that many

of them. we must say, but there are some. and that's what i think the vp does really matter. i don't think the vp matters as much for former president trump because he is the central figure of the republican party. he is the son throughout which everything rotates. but i think for the democrats, it's going to be interesting who she chooses and who she chooses will say something about where she thinks for vulnerabilities are does she think that immigration as a big vulnerability she might go for a kelly is it the white working class? she might go for a josh shapiro or does she want to animate people and inspire them? than it is indeed a pete buttigieg. so who she chooses will say a lot about where she thinks this campaign is headed. >> scott trump has had a gift for coming up for us nicknames with people from little marco to crooked hillary that's stick and somehow get at just, the one, the one movie that you have that you didn't know till the assault was thrown on it, right. and democrats have never been successful going the other way until now. they've been trying something completely different and completely unlike the democratic party party which is to just throw word out there and they're the word that

they're throwing out there about trump and j.d. vance is weird. that's it. weird. listen to this some of what he and his running mate are saying. let's just plain weird thanks, guys. just weird. that's i mean, it's like weird what he does right i mean, on the other side, they're just weird no matter what kind of weird stuff they keep saying what was weird was him joking about racism today and then talk about diet mountain dew okay so. >> they've got a talking point, scott. they've got it. and then you chuck goal, but it's the kind of word that if it sticks in people's minds can make whoever you're talking about look kind of silly and small. are you worried about it? >> no, because i think any republican would say, i think the democrats are weird. i mean, i think it's weird that kamala harris is in the process right now of trying to repudiate every single position she ever took when she ran for president. i think it's weird that they're currently engaged in massive racial segregation of all their supporters mean you could go on and on and on about all the weird things that

kamala harris is doing, all the weird thing she's done. i think it's weird of these phrases she uses in her speeches all the time. so i don't think the campaign is going to be fought on who is more weird, who's seen as more weird. i think it's going to be fought on one thing and it's going to be on who can do the best job as president in the wall street journal poll this week, donald trump at 51% job approval the biden-harris ticket is still down in the mid 30s. it's going to be fought on cost of living. it's going to be fought on immigration and who can make my life better? these semantics about weird, that that's not the issue for swing voters. it's why is my life so expensive and why is my community unsafe and overrun with illegal immigration congressman, can i just ask you a question because scott to spread something up important, the 51% approval rating for trump i mean, that's really amazing for trump. >> that is a really high approval rating. so just take everything else out of it. she surge in the polls, her approval, rae, do you see that as something democrats should be concerned about? >> absolutely. absolutely. and that's why they're going to spend an exorbitant amount of resources actually reminding

the american people but what life was like under trump the hysteria, the constant chaos the utter in competency and look, he still has an understandable bump from what happened several weeks ago and understandable bump from officially becoming his party's nominee. >> that is all going to change. there is no question that the momentum is on the vice president's side right now, no one sees that changing for for quite some time. you're well and there's not only 99 days, so i mean, it sounds you want to run out the clock, right? >> i should i want to ask about sophia nelson? i just had on jd vance's friends. they were friends for ten years she is transgender public defender in detroit and he was supportive of her when she went through her her surgery and then he describes she describes him as changing and she describes it as cruelty shrubs she describes him as a chameleon, but he and he and his wife she believes are now motivated by money and power. what was your reaction

to hearing sophia well, it was the ultimate shame on you. j.d. vance shame on you for being such a hypocrite and a flip-flopper and doing that on the backs of vulnerable people because public defender gone to yale she actually has the agency right to be able to have this conversation and reveal the truth. but there are so many young trend and it's kids who are under assault right now in their schools and their families, and their churches. all because of donald trump and now j.d. vance, the flip-flopper, who is saying really horrible things. that's putting their lives at risk. and so i'm glad that it's come out, that he's a hypocrite, which we all knew because think about all all the stuff that he said about donald trump and now is donald trump's best friend but it really gives me pause that you have someone who can so quickly turn on a friend. because what that says about their character, that this isn't just an ideology this is somewhat that you have known for over a decade that you

patently loved and cared about and came to the hospital right? clearly. and for you to turn your back on someone who is your friend. what are you going to do to us as americans? >> it's got, you know, what, is the significance of this? i mean, we went through at emails that sofia chose to share with us it's in her conversations she had with j.d. vance over that time. and you heard it, right? he wrote about hating trump and you knew that he had had that point of view. he talks about some trump supporters is racist in one of them, scott, he says, i hate the police, given the number of negative experiences, i've had in the past few years, i can't imagine what a black guy goes. through i'm just curious, scott, whether you can believe as genuine his point of view now, on issue after issue because sophia is correct that what he presents in these emails on issue after issue is now really the polar opposite. of where he is well, i don't think there's anything different in these emails and what j.d vance had said on cnn when he worked here several years ago and what he now says is a change of opinion about a number of things, including

donald trump. >> i mean, my my impression is that it's kind of weird for somebody to be your friend and to say, i care about this person. but if you don't adhere to all my political views, i'm going to release all of our correspondents to the new york times. i mean what kind of a friend is that? i mean, i get it. everybody's motivated and emotional about politics right now, but lord have mercy. does any of us on this panel have a friend that your work is going to release 10-year-old emails to the new york morning go ahead, lulu i mean, i think what's important here is that he's now running to be the vice president united states. and so what, his opinions were, his character, what he believes is of course incredibly important. and frankly, what j.d. vance wrote is there in black and white. this isn't sofia's views. this isn't her impressions. people can read for themselves what j.d. vance once believed and compare it to what he espouses. now. and those are very, very different opinions and he might have had

a conversion. he might have become a true believer, but it's a very short space of time. and frankly, this is incredibly damaging and it's jd vance is the gift that keeps on giving to democrats i mean, yes. >> go ahead well, we don't need jd vance as a gift because here's the thing that i want to remind us of. >> the democrats have a very clear path to victory. and now multiple paths to 270 in a way that the republicans have a very, very narrow one in terms of who they constituency is and so we can not at all all overplay the fact that in just the last week we have seen black women and black men and lgbtq people, the whole queer communities come out latinos, native folks into spirit folks, as well as white women answering the call. and tonight, right now, as we sit here, you've got white dudes four for comment. >> can i ask the question, coming out? >> in support of this candidate and you win an american when you get all the people behind you, not just a small faction of them quickly, scott, can i

yeah. >> i just i am i am mystified by the newfound democrat obsession with racial segregation. i find all this racial segregation mean, i guess the party is getting back to its roots but i mean, i find this crazy. i mean, that you are principally organizing all of your supporters by race, enforcing them all to get on these calls. and you have to be a certain race or gender to get on the calls. i find this to be bizarre behavior and we don't need you to understand because here's the thing. we know that we win when we bring together people and have a big tent coalition. >> but you're not reading makes up, dividing them. >> know, we're actually bringing them together and providing him just look at the numbers. >> we don't he was debate this. look at the cash and look at the support right? this momentum that you see in just seven days is great. peter than any other presidential campaign. in history so say what you will, bringing people together, who we can be proud of, who we are, whether we're black or queer or otherwise is the winning strategy? >> alright, we're going to leave it there a lot more to

come out with a go the white guy. >> the white guiso it's the white. do i do it's only all right? we're learning tonight, some really important new details about kim jong un's help he be on the edge, moments that shaped our culture coming this fall on cnn or russia for trying to spy on us. >> we were spying on them i mean, very frightened this is a war but secret wars, secrets

me, a champion has phrase throughout her career though he won't appear on the democratic ticket, the president is pushing forward with plans that could motivate the progressive base of his party with the backing of harris, biden is proposing changes to the nation's highest court including an enforceable code of conduct and 18 year term limits. we can and must prevent the abuse of presidential power. he restore faith in the supreme court. >> the president also calling for constitutional amendment to limit the broad presidential immunity granted by the courts conservative majority last month in a controversial ruling involving former president donald trump the pressure is now a king above the law just imagine what a president could do and trampling civil rights and liberties given such immune, the reforms have virtually no chance of passing in this divided congress, house speaker mike johnson declaring the president's moves dead on arrival, biden delivering his message so at the lbj

presidential library in austin, texas a site offering historical parallels between the two democratic presidents before biden, president lyndon b. johnson was the last president to abandon a reelection bid in an election year. >> i shall not seek and i will not accept the nomination of my party for another term. as your president today, the president celebrating johnson's landmark civil rights acts outlawing segregation and discrimination on the basis race sign 60 years ago, these three acts have made this nation fundamentally more fair fundamentally more just. >> and most importantly fundamentally more consistent with our founding principles. >> biden now hoping to leave his own imprint on the country as his time in office winds down now, vice president kamala harris was off the campaign trail today, but she did fully endorsed that proposal from president biden in a statement

this morning, she wrote that she said that the supreme court is facing a crisis of confidence at this moment in time, the white house said that the vice president was closely consulted on these proposals that biden rolled out. it will be an interesting dynamic to watch going forward as so far harris has run in lockstep with biden's agenda, erin arlette. >> thank you. and now, lucy baines johnson daughter of the former president lyndon b. johnson, who was with president biden at the lbj presidential library tonight. and lucy, i really appreciate your time. it's really nice to speak to you and in the context of the time we're in now, such an important moment and biden tonight said his words, we must strengthen the barred whales of democracy. you were with him before and after speech, you had a chance to speak with him personally. you've known him for a long time for decades. so what was your conversation like tonight, lucy, do you think he he truly is at peace with his decision? >> well, i can't speak for president biden, but i can speak the reaction of everyone

who was in the audience. we felt a little bit like the land lin-manuel miranda is wonderful music that said, we were in the room when it happened and, i think that being in the room where it happened when president biden made his first speech, having conceded that he was not going to run for reelection, was just a magical moment. we all were pinching ourselves because as he had said to us he cared a lot about the office but he cared most about his country. >> when my father made that's similar kind of decision because he cared so much about his country. >> and both of them cared tremendously about civil rights and the importance of the 1964 civil rights act was signed on my 17th birthday. and my sweet

father didn't have time to go down to the drugstore and pick up a card. so he wrote me and love letter on white as stationary and even noted the time of day i think with the hope that one day i would realize just what an incredible birthday gift is that they end of what was really legalized apartheid in the united states. years later, i got to walk over the pettus bridge with president biden, then vice president biden, and we held john lewis's hand and we went with the force and determination to continue this fight, which is not over your father was dealing with some health issues. >> i know when he made his decision and obviously it was a turbulent time via now i'm war. there were a lot of things playing into the moment for him as there are for president biden. of course, president biden though it is age first and foremost, lucy, as we all know, it is age that is the

reason he is not running and it is other people's perception of his age specifically. >> do you see parallels? we look in history the last time that someone walked away from that second term was your father, how many similarities. do you see between president johnson and president biden well, i see a great love and passion and long service in the senate and in the vice presidency. >> and in the presidency. that's the first thing i see. i see a commitment to social justice that both felt fervently and gave their last breaths for ai, i see the president's willingness to say whatever it takes to give the best service to this country. >> i will do. >> and if indeed, my time to pass the baton has come i do so

gladly. i saw that in my father. i see that in president biden and it was a moment where you felt you were in front of our great american hero the room was electric i was in the room where it happened and lucy, you were when this when president biden decides to step aside, you were very quick. >> you were among the first to endorse vice president kamala harris now i know you have known president biden for much of your life obviously, and through his relationship with your father and then your own relationship do are you surprised at how quickly democrats have fallen in line? and do you know kamala harris? you know what, personally well, i was thrilled and i am thrilled the way the democratic party has come together because when we come together, we can make great things happen we've done it before. >> and i believe we can do it

now. i have had the privilege of getting to meet vice president harris on a couple of occasions. the one that was most moving is really one that correlates with today's events i went to washington, dc on the poor people's march and of course that is so much about social justice for all of us, black and white and and ethnic, ethnicities of all kinds people me, basic food. they need basic nutrition, they need basic health care. they need basic education that should be a right of all americans and vice president harris was kind enough to welcome me into our office to say that she was proud of what i was doing and that she was with me every step of the way i'm going to be with her, every step. >> will lucy thank you very much. i appreciate your taking the time to speak with me and all of us. thanks.
