>> imprint for certain. >> cnn this morning with kasie hunt. >> next it is. thursday, august 1st, right now. i'm seeing in this morning i didn't know she was black until a number of years ago when she happened to turn black donald trump questioning common harris is a racial identity claiming, she quote happened to turn black the american people we'll deserve better harris, brushing aside in trump's crude attacks about a race, putting the spotlight on his character and the coffin of hamas is political a liter killed in iran is being carried through the streets of tehran as his funeral services get underway it is 5:00 a.m. here in washington. this is live look at capitol hill. good morning, everyone. i'm jessica dean,

info casing han today it is great to be with you this morning. donald trump is getting called out for making false and misleading claims about the ethnicity of his 2024 opponent, kamala harris, in front of a group of black journalists. trump was asked about how summon his party have attacked harris derisively calling her a dei higher and it brought on this response i've known her for a long time in directly, not directly, very much. >> and she was always of indian heritage and she was only promoting indian heritage i didn't know she was black until a number of years ago when she happened to turn black and now she wants to be known as black. so i don't know if she indian or black and those remarks during up a firestorm of criticism. but trump allies like vice presidential hopeful j.d. vance quickly rallied to his side, even doubling down on the comments what he said i felt was hysterical. i think he pointed out the fundamental chameleon-like nature of kamala

harris vice president harris herself has dismissing trumps the newest outburst, calling it the same old show donald trump spoke at the annual meeting of the national association of black journalists and it was the same old show the divisiveness and the disrespect and let me just say the american people deserve better the american people deserve better the white house also weighing in on the device of remarks during the daily press briefing it doesn't matter if it's a four liter. >> a former president it is insulting and we have to put she is the vice president of the united states it's commonly harris, we have to put some respect her name, period with me now axioms publisher nicholas johnson and national political reporter with the

washington post, sabrina rodriguez. good morning to both of you. good to have you here sabrina, let's go first to you. you were with the vice president at that event? houston, where we heard her just speaking at a moment ago. >> what was the response to her rebuttal of what donald trump said about her because she really thought like really intentionally made it about the american people, not about her in that moment. absolutely. >> jessica, i mean, we saw in that room it was thousands of black women, part of the sigma gamma rho sorority. i mean talking to them even before she took this state, they expected her to address it, but they expected her to address it that way because they were saying commonly harris is used to these attacks this is not something that comes as a surprise to harris. >> and frankly, most people that have heard donald trump's speaking over the years. >> i mean, for him to make racist and sexist attacks is something we expected, especially with harris. now being at the top of the democratic ticket.

>> but really it's seeing how she's maneuvering and it really just plays into the strategy that we're seeing her her play on the campaign role. >> she's really focused on this type message about how she's focused on the future. she doesn't want to be someone that's focused on the past. she's trying to draw that contrast. and by trump doing things like speaking before a group of black journalists and making comments like that. it just really helped it's her hone in that point of look at this man who is focused on being disrespectful on divisiveness when i'm the first one that's focused on the future of this country and uniting people and nick look, the house speaker mike johnson, really caution people, don't do this, don't make this about a dei higher. >> we've really seen republicans using that as almost it's like a slur in a way without being able to say it out loud. >> and you hurt commonly harris there, this is the same old show we were promised a new trump after the assassination attempts, someone that was going to bring everybody together with unit and yet we

have these comments. i think we can take that those stories were off the mark that halfway through his convention speech, a lot of publications including axioms, were wrong because people were telling him to trump and release and changed by this. this is not wrong. look, we shouldn't be surprised by this. we've been at this for nine years. remember donald trump or rose to prominence on race attacks on former president obama and whether he was even born in this kind of go back to the getting rejected. >> so we shouldn't be surprised about trump being trump, i guess. >> i think it does speak to some of the political issues here, the way mike johnson tried to tamp down these kinds of comments in his caucus when some of his members started coming out it is not a conversation that republicans were you talking to want to have a lot of folks that we've called yesterday said it was a disaster, were very upset about this being the topic of conversation. of course, they said all of this off record. they didn't want their names in the stories because they played this game before we've all played this kind of vein before. i think the real thing to answer is, is this the time when they're real political implications? but now we've seen a lot of polling in the last couple of days does lead is nationally had been erased. the bloomberg swing state tracking poll the other day had kamala harris up and some of these states are there

political constant? questions for that is that momentum for democrats are going to continue. we'll take a look, but like we can't be surprised, right absolutely and sabrina, you wrote a piece, is the headline is trump's attack on harris is racial identity moves contest into new the face. >> and i just want to read a clip a little snippet from it. the vice president's aides and support are some speaking on the condition of anonymity to discuss strategy during a delicate moment stressed that her response both on wednesday and in the coming days does not have to be dramatic and forceful to be effective tell us more about that yeah. >> i mean, i think one of the things we're seeing and i mentioned before, but harris is really focused on, i mean, she's not going out on the campaign trail and giving these hour-long, hour-and-a-half long speech teaches. i mean, she knows that especially as democratic base, lots of price by a lot of the actions that they're saying from the republican party really she's trying to turn things. she's trying to turn this narrative

and we've seen it over the last week, not just with the racist and sexist comments from trump, but we're seeing it with just democrat sort of uniting over a. more concise message when they're, when they're being critical republican. i mean, we've seen how much democrats have now adopted, calling republicans weird, and how that seems to have really triggered a nerve with republicans. so it seems like as we head into these final months, she's trying to focus in on okay. they want to attack her for her identity want to see trump's running mate, j.d vance, focusing on oh, if she lived in canada for part of her teenage years or wants to focus on all these intricacies of oh, well, her identity, this or if she's a chameleon or she faked a southern accent, i mean, they're trying to grasp, but these different things. and what harrison this campaign and her allies are saying is, okay, let them do that, let them do that while we're actually on the road doing events on an almost daily basis, let them do that while we just say look at

what they're saying, we don't have to give a descriptor for what they're saying. most people that are listening ending to ic can see it for what it is yeah. nick, what do you make of that strategy i mean, i think it's definitely a pivot right? >> like what it is even something that's the way you look at weight. kamala harris versus runs her campaign versus joe biden at my job winemaking lot about january 6th on about democracy commonly harris campaign more about the future. we won't go back. i don't think they want to have these kind of debates again because on for nine years, it's been trump says something outrageous and we all spend two or three days it's reacting to it and the harris campaign has seen that that didn't work very well. and i think exactly what to bring. i said, let's move forward. >> yeah, it is interesting to see how hillary clinton went after him joel biden, and now we commonly harris is doing, what are the political consequences of statements like this? remember i was running a breaking news desk nine years ago when trump came down the golden escalator and he said a bunch of things and i was like, this isn't going to work does clearly he's not gonna be winning elections the same those kinds of things and i thought that over and over and over again, years and years and years and there was no political consequences of that. and so i'm wondering, will this really move? needle at all, i think with the harris

campaign is saying that's not how that argument again, let's talk about something else. >> let's keep looking forward. all right. nick johnson and sabrina rodriguez are thanks to both of you this morning next unseen in this morning in the last few days, we have delta crushing blows to each of them israeli prime minister benjamin netanyahu vowing to keep fighting as the middle east teeters on the edge, plus vice president harris getting a big endorsement. and her race for the white house. and the bait and switch scheme. one ticket website is being she was done you've seen this what is it main one you are telling me you can get? directtv our good stuff, and you don't need a satellite dish i used to love doing my business on those things. one sick pigeon, then vicious kept the rain off for our beaks. >> we just have different priorities is satellite free directv. never thought i'd see the day. >> or lifespans are quite short, extreme directtv without it a satellite dish, you're

this morning you very much have a region on the edge, jessica, people waiting with beaded breath to see what the response, what retaliation will look like if i can just pull up those images? >> again of this massive funeral procession, this massive service held in rome today with a smile hernias casket being carried through the crowds right in the main city center. and i want to show you those pictures once more because there is a message in those images for m tech ron, iran is clearly seeing you did not just kill hernia because remember, they are accusing israel, which has neither confirm nor denied this assassination. it is saying you have messed with iran at large. you have violated the sovereignty of this country in iran, supreme leader has promised, has vowed to fight back to retaliate. but what does that look like? what? what are two wrongs options? it could directly strike israel. but as you can imagine, that only escalates things further

as you heard the mornings there from the united states dates saying, look, we have to be cautious. this could cause the region to spiral deeper, further into violence. the other option is that iran could indirectly strike israel well, that is via its proxy militias. it could activate its tentacles in the region from yemen to syria, to iraq to begin launching their own attacks. but that oh me expands the conflict which already has reached to lebanon and across the region. so you are seeing a movement in time now, when there are serious fears that this only begins to rise, this escalation only begins to rise. and if you ask, well, how do we cool this down? how do we bring down the temperature? it's very difficult to see how that can happen when the mediator for gaza himself, it's my hernia is the one who was assassinated all right? >> all right. so sound like i'm disease. thank you so much. we really appreciate it i'm next firefighters out west

historically, the vice-president in terms of the election, does not have any impact. i mean, virtually no impact now, when he was asked about trump's comments about his readiness for office advanced, seemed to brush it off that's what the president said a year ago. >> that's what the president said a few months ago. that's what the president said to me privately what he was thinking about selecting me or somebody else and it's just through most people are going to vote for kamala harris or for donald trump the answers spent the first few weeks is trump's vice presidential pick on defense. and now he's dismissing the widespread criticism, telling nbc news, quote, the price of injury of being on the national ticket and given me an opportunity the the govern is you have to take the shots. and so i sort of expected it joining me now, white house reporter for the wall street journal, catherine lucy, and race and politics reporter for the hill, shy and daniel's. good morning to both of you. thank you so much for being here all right. >> let's start first, katherine, let's start first with j.d. vance because we just

heard those those clips and it has been a rock, rough and rocky rollout for him, i think is fair to say. and now you have donald trump saying what we just heard him say. there do you agree with that? do you think that vance doesn't matter one way or the other well, certainly it is true that ultimately people are voting for who is at the top of the ticket, but vice-president cancel candidates are selected to benefit the ticket, right? >> whether it's to help with certain states, help with certain voter groups fans definitely it was brought in because they saw him as somebody who'd be useful in the key battleground states like pennsylvania, michigan, and wisconsin, and the plan was to really try and park them in those places, have him connect with white working class voters there. so there is always a reason you're picking someone on twitter, put them on the ticket but they are they are trying to move forward. he is currently on this big western swing we had a story out there talking to a lot of voters who came out to advance event there. they don't seem that trouble by it. they largely seemed to be okay with him on

the ticket. so we'll have to see if this if these comments continued to percolate and present problems for him? >> yeah. >> it cheyenne, at that event that we just played the clip where they were talking about we're talking to trump about vance it was also an event with black journalists where the former president went after kamala harris saying she turned black, really denigrating her heritage what we now have had a few you know, about 12 hours for all of that to set in how do you think that is settling in? and it was interesting to see the vice president's response to it, which is essentially america deserves better. this is the same old show yes, that's exactly right. donald trump was speaking at the national association of black journalists conventions to a room full of black journalists who many of them report for black voters, black americans. and so he kind of went out on a limb. he tried to speak to black voters. it didn't really go over very well if you

listened to the audience reaction there, and that's a roomful of journalists so we do here from the harris campaign that this is nothing new from donald trump. we know about his birth or ism conspiracy against former president obama, as well as now we see that happening with the vice president. and so it'll be interesting how this plays out with black voters themselves, because from what i'm hearing it's not going to play out very well and catherine, what's interesting is the trump campaign was really before the assassination attempt in the rnc. >> and even during the rnc, really trying to go after voters of color, were, they really saw biden's numbers slipping. >> that's right. they saw biden's number slipping there. they really thought they had opportunities, particularly with black men. but one of the things we've seen and we, we saw this this week with the vice president's event and in atlanta is we're seeing a lot of a lot of enthusiasm along, but among black voters, we see that advents me, see that in polling, she had a huge rally in atlanta this week. i was there the energy there was

really off the charts obviously, you will have to see how she converts that. she has work to do, but that really changes the dynamics here in terms of trying to appeal to those voters. >> yeah cheyenne, it now at the dynamics have changed and katherine's point there is really boosted enthusiasm that we've seen since commonly, harris has entered this race, we saw her in georgia earlier this week. how does the harris campaign forge ahead and really try to make the, make the best of this moment and get back maybe some of those voters who had softened on the democratic ticket previously so commonly harris has a very unique opportunity here, right? she is seen as a little bit more progressive than joe biden, which is going to play very well with younger black voters. but she also really has a moment to speak with black men. they are the most vulnerable of the black population right now when it comes to black voters and whether or not they're going to cast their ballots. >> so she needs to talk to the issues that are at the top of the mind for black men, which aren't that different from

black voters which aren't that different from your regular, everyday american voters. so she really needs to nail down on inflation. she really needs to mail dot on jobs and opportunity and that way she'll be able to really lower in black men and those who have kind of become a little bit disillusioned with the democratic party over the last four years. >> all right, catherine, lizzie, and cheyenne, daniel's thanks to both of you for getting up early this morning. we appreciate it. >> three defendants accused of plotting the 911 terror attacks have reached a plea deal with the u.s. >> and that includes the alleged mastermind behind the 2001 attacks. colleague sheikh muhammad the pretrial agreement coming after 27 months of negotiations. and it takes the death penalty off the table. see you in a national security analysts peter bergen, noting the unusual nature of this trial everything that could go wrong with his trial did go wrong. the fact that we were still in pretrial hearings moving at two decades after he was captured, i think speaks

for itself so this plea deal is probably the least bad thing that the leaseback case for the prosecution joining me now is the founder of the national security institute at george mason university law school, and former associate counsel for president george w bush. do meal, jaffa. well, good morning. good morning. nice to see you here. walk us first through how we arrived at this point. this has been a long time. yeah. >> well, you know what happened was we kept college shake muhammad on the battlefield in afghanistan and pakistan. we took given a custody. he then went to a ca facility for awhile, was eventually transferred guantanamo bay. and we'd been tried this bill commissions for awhile that went up and down to the supreme court a couple of times. and now there's a question of the evidence of being that's being used against him. was it obtained through enhanced interrogation methods? and like we've seen, to judge the military trials dropout. and so we've had real challenges in this trial. so peter brigands, right? the trials gone for a long time and it's attempted trial. that's going on for a long time. and now the question

is, how can we resolve it? do we need a full trial or a plea deal? looks like the biden ministration decided plea deals, the way to go. >> what is significant about this medial besides the fact that it helpful, it's like getting to an endpoint in all of this i split but the plea deal itself, two key elements. >> one, no death penalty for these three defendants. but second, that they've agreed to plead guilty to all the charges of the indictment including the murder of nearly 3,000 americans on that fateful day on september 11, 2001 all right so let's let's put that to the side for a second because we do have what's going on in the middle east right now. >> and it seems like a situation where it could boil over. it's it's been simmering now for months, the u.s. has been trying i'm very hard to do what it can to keep keep this from from going into all out war what, how do you see things playing out? >> well, look, i mean the hard question is what else should israel be doing? but going after the people that conducted and built these terrorist attacks right over 1,100 killed in israel on that fateful day in october 3 hundred, nearly 300 hostages taken, including americans who remain in gaza.

they took out the leadership of hamas is instrumental hernia in tiran. they just announced this morning that a few weeks ago deal killed muhammad def the military leader of hamas went to get a key has below leader who just killed a bunch of kids in his run, a playground in the golan heights. so they're taking leadership just like we took out a song bin laden. and i'm always all we're hearing. >> it's what we do to defeat a terrorist group. it's what israel is doing. so the idea that they shouldn't or take those attacks hard to understand at the end of the day though, it is going to cause tensions increased particularly because the strike was taken in the heart of the iranian capital on the day of the inauguration, their new president, right? >> i mean, i think that's what also to add such a layer to it, right? is that it happened in tehran. >> i mean, it demonstrates real israeli capability. you think about getting a drone or some sort of missile capability, eat the heart of the nation's capital, their nations capital takeout. a senior leader who was in the words of the, of the iran supreme leader, a guest to their country. i mean, it's provocative, but it also demonstrates, is really capability and puts everybody on notice. you come after

israel. we're going to get you when the time is right for us and the vitamin restoration really trying to land the plane as it were on these cease-fire toxin hostage deal, they'd been in rome this past weekend and now you kind of have two ways of thinking about it, but i've heard it, which is from one perspective, this puts more pressure on those talks at amps up the pressure on hamas on iran to come to the table and actually negotiate the other side is that the man they assassinated last year in iran, that he was a part of those talks. and without him there that it makes it more difficult. where do you come down on you know, just did that last argument made by the by one of the leaders the cutter that you take out the key negotiate or right during the negotiations does help negotiations. >> this is a man who architected not just this terrorist attack, but does the tariffs stacks before it? so the idea is somehow that taking them out as a problem in negotiations the negotiation, it only happened because he killed 1,100 israelis, a kid at

350 people, including american so look, the reality is you want to be a terrorist group leader. you're going to get god and that's what happened here. and nobody, not the countries on avl tree is saying, well, it's really unfortunate might mess up the negotiations. we wouldn't be in this place if we'd had the terrace group boy after innocent civilians. >> all right. give me refer. thank you so much so ahead on scene in this morning is the democratic party. it looks to formally make kamala harris its nominee. we look back at how women in history helped her get here. plus us olympic swimmer katie lead decade. does it again, lacking the field in paris at morgan stanley old school hard work? >> i mean, it's bold new thinking. >> to help you see untapped possibilities. >> and relentlessly work with you to make them real copd hasn't been pretty it's tough to breathe and tough to keep wondering if this is as good as

campaign we fight for a future with equal pay for women because we know when we lift up the economic status of women, we lift up the economic status of children, of families, and all of society it's an issue women had been fighting for, for decades, and it's the same fight that's helping harris gain momentum that she has today. >> and here to help us put it all into perspective, is clara bingham. she's author of the movement, how the women's liberation transformed america 1963 to 1973. clara, this book is so amazing and so pertinent for right now really important to kind of tie together. we're seeing harris rise as a major party nominee. and of course, many women have paid the pave the way for this to happen in the introduction you write about the voices in the movement teaches the colossal debt we owe to these second wave warriors. it is so easy to take for granted the seismic changes they made. but knowing

this history, will give us the knowledge we need to ten you the struggle for freedom one of those women is surely chisholm, who when i worked in on the hill, there's a beautiful portrait of her that i would walk by all the time on the house side of the capital, what should people know about her and her connection to this moment in time? >> well good morning, jessica. shirley chisholm is one of the great heroes of the second wave feminist movement and the civil rights movement. and she, and so many ways paved the way for kamala harris to be who she is today. and she was the first first black woman elected to congress. and she was elected from brooklyn and 1968, sworn in in january of 69, at a time when there were only 11 women in congress out of 500 35, and ten black members of congress. so she was an absolute anomaly.

i mean, she was elected only three years after the voting rights act was passed in 1965. so when she walked into the halls of congress, she faced an enormous amount of massage money and racism, and she had this particular quality of holding her head high and confronting people well with humor. >> and never, ever backing down one of one of her funny stories. >> i love not funny, but really grave is when she was assigned to the agriculture committee and she because she was a freshman, she was supposed to accept this role, which she of course thought was absurd because she was from brooklyn and she used to say, everyone knows, a tree doesn't grow in brooklyn. and she staged managed to get off of that committee you can get onto the veterans affairs committee and that was much more relevant to her work, but she kept on just systematically breaking down barriers and she'd be became

this incredibly important agent for change and that's how she saw herself she then, of course president in a very audacious move in 1970 me to and i want to play a clip of what she said during her announcement and how people might try to define her. here's what she said i spend before you today i took candidate for the democratic nomination for the presidency of the united states of america i am not the candidate of black america. >> although i am black and proud i am not the candidate of the women's movement of this country although i am a woman and i'm equally proud of that i do not intend to offer to you the tired and blood cliches, which for too long have been accepted part of our political

life i am the candidate of the people of america clara, it is so interesting to watch that 1972. >> here we are in 2024 just to take that all in and to see kamala harris running now and and obviously, with hillary clinton in 2016, and she's even talked about it that she was, she didn't want to lean in all the way to being the first woman. she didn't want to make it all about that. there seems to be a little bit more of an ease with kamala harris talking about that. it's one of many things how do you see it all interesting, i think it's very interesting to analyze the difference between 2016 and 2024 and america. >> and one of the women politicians in particular, and i think that the me too movement which really broke out in 2020, 2017 just, a year

after trump was in the presidency was it was another wave of feminism that was what was really a normal resident had a huge political impact and cultural impact. on the country is women came out out of the closet and discuss the sexual harassment that so many of them are facing at work and so many men who were the perpetrators of this lost their jobs and so i think that there's now much more comfort in and talking about women's issues. the other enormous change is, of course, the reversal or roe v. wade in with the dobbs decision in 2022. and these two historic events, i think have really changed what it means to be a woman politician and american a woman running for president because there's so much more aes in terms of talking about women, isn't necessarily dirty work third to say that you represent women's interests anymore because there's, there's more validity and honoring that and also there is

urgency. and so they're at now for the first time in 50 years, the freedoms women fought for in my book it, during the decade of 63 and 73 have been rolled back and this has never happened before, and it's as kamala harris has showed us, you can't put the genie back in the bottle. you can't just pretend as if all of them freedoms that women have earned in the last 50 years can just be wiped away with some sense of falseness. dahlia about making america great again well, we know a grade you can used to be, it wasn't so great for women at all so i just think that this is the moment that just by sarah city and amazingly unusual terms of events, we have probably the perfect democratic candidate that the party could ever ask for. >> yeah it is it is such an interesting moment in history and then thank you for helping us put it into perspective.

clare being appreciated, author of the movement, how women's liberation transfer formed america clara, thanks again for joining us thank you, jessica in sports american, kayla ducky, making her case would be the greatest female swimmer of all time. i'm seeing an international sports anchor, amanda davis is in paris with the latest amanda. this is exciting stuff it is in d, jessica, we do often overuse the word legend sports, i worry, but there's no doubt it is. >> i'm monica that katie let becky deserves with bells on. she said she was disappointed without showing in the 400 freestyle way bronze, but more than made up for it in the 1,500 and event that has become our own and she claimed to eight olympic gold medal in an olympic record time. it was a time seven in the seconds faster than winning time in tokyo, three years ago and again, they pretty much had to adjust the camera settings because you finished so far

ahead of the rest, it was when made her the most successful female swimmer in games history. and she's aware of what that means in terms of inspiring the next generation i try not to really dwell on history or the magnitude of things those women that i'm up there with now, they're people that i've looked up to for so many years, people that i it was watching swim when i was just starting out in the sport. >> so that's very special to me to share that with them and they've definitely inspired me. so i hope that, you know, some little girl out there is watching and will come along and get up there with all of us someday to yeah. >> and how about lists as evidenced of that checkout, the adorable reaction surveys young fans in the stands after let's add keys vague, trey that she got away from this swimming legend herself. it was a moment that went viral on social media with well i'm saying katie lynn

jazz made this girl's life well-worth. the director perez, but why would only one metal in a session when you can win to that is something up froms is new as superstar lay on march on did last night. that not even michael phelps tried in the space of two hours, he took big tree in the 200 meter button the fly between world record holder and defending champion christoph me luck. he got the medal around his neck and then came back and did it all again in the 200 breaststroke was incredible in both law decca marshalls still have gold medal hopes to come. so to the u.s. men's basketball team and abroad and co, you might remember, we're given a mass save scare in there pre games match up against the new kids on the block, south sudan, just to point to split them that time. >> this wasn't easy, but it was easier jason tatum back in the lineup and they took it 103 points to 86 to book their place in the quarter finals. >> bus, a warning to all well, olympic favorites was fired in
