strategy for battleground states like pennsylvania, we really need turnout in philadelphia and we need an uncertain pockets and sharpening the message just to motivate voters. >> and we say things like democracy is on the line. i think no propensity voters, they don't know what we have been very larry simple talking points. >> we also have white male counterparts that we also need to educate on how overly qualified this candidate is. >> what i hear you saying is that but the reach of the divine nine will not be limited to the black community they believe this political moment will make history for america and the divine hi, what people are going to walk away with is that our organizations are forced to be reckoned with what he spoke with several of the individuals you saw on that piece there after donald trump's comments here at the national association of black journalists convention here in chicago, where i am and the consensus was they found the comments to be disrespectful particularly we they say to

black women, they say those comments simply supercharge their motivation to get kamala harris elected as president. rene marsh, cnn chicago welcome home. >> a three american friends, our back in the united states after historic prisoner exchange with russia, their emotional return president biden's message and the hurdles that they cleared to make this thing happen 24 people exchange seven different countries. >> big money. the harris campaign just announced that it's raised $310 million. last month and one month double what the trump campaign says it brought in. but what does it mean for this now reset presidential race. and justin timberlake has a court appearance today. okay. for his dwi from the summer. i'm kate bolduan with omar jimenez, sara, and john are out today. this is cnn news central all

right. breaking overnight an emotional union for three americans. finally freed after being wrongfully detained in russia, former us marine paul whelan, wall street journal reporter evan gershkovich, russian-american journalist alsu shevach, greeted with tears of joy at joint base andrews in maryland, whelan reminding reporters, he was held for five years, seven months, and five days just a reminder of how closely he was paying attention to his time. there are in during that time, he says he's saying the national anthem every single day. gershkovich getting off the plane and sweeping his mom off her feet the wall street journal reporter telling his colleagues, you see that picture there on the tarmac. i'm home and kurmasheva rushed into the arms of her two daughters who could be heard sobbing from yards, yards away. one of them turning 13-years-old today now the three americans are returning home after an unprecedented

prisoner swap that involves seven countries, a deal that president biden says he was absolutely convinced his administration could get done back together. >> relationships with countries we haven't had before. rebuild nato, we rebuild the circumstances, allow this to happen that's why it happened. >> what is your message tonight to vladimir putin stop now overnight, the released americans were flown to an army medical center in texas to get checked up cnn's rosa flores is in san antonio and priscilla alvarez is at the white house. rosa, i want to begin with you all three americans are at brooke army medical center at this point, can you explain the process? process that they're barking on right now you know, omar, that process actually started in the hanger shortly after sure. >> they landed, our cameras were rolling. we were there. it was about 3:11 a.m. local time at when their plane landed here

in san antonio at kelly field shortly thereafter, we witnessed as the freed americans exited the plane with their families embraced width, state department officials, mingled with white house officials then we observed as the white house and the state department handed over the freed americans and their families to a us army colonel that then explained that they would be transported to the facility that you see? he hi me, brooke army medical center. then there was a group of psychologists. we have video of this as well that explained to the freed americans and their families yes. that there wellbeing was there priority. now just have that moment sink in for just a second because these freedom eriksen's spent years in some cases, especially in the case of paul whelan, years in a russian prison. and here they are on american soil, are being told by a us army colonel and by their, by his aboard staff that there

wellbeing was their priority, that they would be transported to the facility that you see behind me and that they were going to max try to maximize the amount of time that they would spend with their families, but that they would get a medical evaluation. now, i did ask paul whelan about this moment and you're here's what he said. take a listen so looking forward to seeing my family down here and just recuperating from five years, seven months, from five days of just absolute nonsense by the russian government now, omar, that nightmare, of course, in russia is over. >> now, these freed americans are in the facility that you see behind me. it is unclear, of course how long they will stay here. it just depends on on their condition. but again, i should add they are here with their families omar, back to the beginning of a process, i want to bring in priscilla alvarez into this conversation, who's at the white house for us, what, what are we hearing from the white house this morning? well, the president

described this yesterday as quote, a feat of diplomacy and to put this into context, it was the largest ever prisoner exchange between the us and russia since so cold war for all of those reasons, that is officials feel relieved and joyous this morning just as they did yesterday. but to take you behind the scenes, of course, these are painstaking negotiations. that were ongoing for a year first, but that really started to come together over the last few months with the president seeking help from germany and slovenia. and the reason germany was important is because they had a russian assassin who russians wanted return to the u.s had to work with germany to see if they were willing to return him so that they could have this deal come together, that meant calls between the president and the chancellor in january, a meeting in february, and then later to the vice president asking and talking with the chancellor and the slovenian

prime minister back in february when she was at the munich security conference. so all of this really came came to a head over the last few weeks as well as the president spoke with the slovenian prime minister. but two weeks ago, that was just before he made the announcement that he was dropping out of the presidential race and media had two russian nationals that were of interest to russia. so you can start to get a sense here of just how sensitive and i'm sure kate, this whole diplomatic effort was as they tried to bring together this massive deal for the release of these americans among others. now the president also reflected good on that when he was on the tarmac last night, take a listen jobless call mission for other countries i asked him to do anything against her immediate so very difficult for me to do germany, is slovenia really came into last minute i tell you

chancellor was so you heard him there really underscoring the importance of alliances that really led up to this remarkable moment. >> the president and the vice president were able to greet these freed americans at joint base andrews before they continue to san antonio, the vice president, i'll also taking a moment to reflect blight on the tarmac yesterday using it as an opportunity to also underscore the stakes of the election and why it's so important through the lens of foreign policy to keep these alliances quite the process to get to this point for so alvarez really appreciate it. rosa rosa-flores as well. kate and joining us right now to talk about this democratic congressman from california, eric swalwell. it's good to see you. thanks for being so you're, you're not going to find an elected i haven't heard that's not happy to see these see that that homecoming in those reunions absolutely. everyone wants free americans to be free and home there is criticism though that i'm seeing from some republicans about how the deal was done, the price, if you will, the cost of it. mike mccaul, the

chair of the foreign affairs committee, saying that he's concerned that continuing to trade innocent americans for actual russian criminals sends a dangerous message to putin that only encourages further haas to take hostage taking by his regime i saw speaker johnson and mitch mcconnell say the very same what do you what do you say about that hostage diplomacy? >> i switched over from the olympics last night to watch these scenes and you can't help but be filled with joy, its freedom, freedom for these people, families reunited. and we're the good guys and they're the bad guys. so yes, we're going to get good guys back into do that. you're going to have to negotiate and give some bad guys back. i mean, it's how it's going to work and the alternative is that they rot and die. in a russia prison. but when i look at these responses as particularly donald trump's he never welcomed them home he's called it an embarrassment. he called it extortion. and the only thing if barest about was his

response. >> i ask you about that because i think you're talking about is maybe i didn't hear all of his responses, but when he was on it was on a radio show. he they did jump into criticizing how biden did it, not saying anything about welcoming the americans home? let me play. how donald trump did respond to this prisoner swap and also how j.d. vance kind of piggybacked on that. listen to this and i heard he said, why didn't trump get them out and he was taken during that text. i got out 59 different people, 59. and i didn't pay money and they allowed some really rough people out, you know that right? >> we have to ask ourselves, why are they coming home? and i think it's because bad guys all over the world recognize will trump's about to be back in office, so they're cleaning house. that's a good thing. and i think it's a testament to donald trump's strength john kirby, who is the spokesman for the national security council, was on and he said, there is no evidence any of that is true. >> he actually i think is wording was i don't actually even really know what to say about the j.d. vance commentary

but how do these exchanges, it's now part of the election how do these exchanges, how do you think they play in terms of foreign policy and the candidates who are running? well, it shows strength by the president and also the vice president and. by the way. she and i were prosecutors in the same office in oakland. and you have to negotiate thousands of deals for the length of time that she served. so it doesn't surprise me at all that she was a part of the negotiations here and putting pressure on. but what does it say about just like the human side of this, i think when you step back why can't donald trump's just be happy for these people's release, its weird emotion that you would make this about yourself like it's not about you. donald is not about you. and he's kind of like debbie downer character on snl, like donald downer. and if you can't love your country during a joyous moment like this? you can't lead it. >> i laughed because i was actually i will ask you, you

you leaned into the weird attack. i've i've seen you say and i've seen you lean into it. are you as like the now the word of the month is going to be donald downer. i mean, what what is this? the democrats are doing? you think it's working or is there an expiration date on this? name-calling? >> i think we just need to be plainspoken about what it is like. talk to people like you talked to them at a bar, or a church or on main street and i thought very differently a bars charged. >> well she's kind of just 24 carat, you know, creepiness that you would like. >> take a moment like this, a mom hugging her son and you would like make it about you and it's like it's not about you. sorry, pau i was on a lesson. >> i was on tv late. unfortunately. unfortunately, and bomani had this great point which was this kinda comes down to, they're not like us. >> politics republicans have run on that. he says, in this gets to, they're not like us, but is that what the democratic you want, the democratic party represent? what i want to represent as people who just

understand what this is all about and can boil it down to its essence too often, democrats think we're trying to win a harvard law school moot court competition. and we're just trying to win a gut check. and i don't think donald trump passes the gut-check and the way that he responded to this. >> so next big question up for kamala harris is her running mate and there's this funny thing of like all of the top contenders kind of letting it be known that their weekend schedules have officially been it left open. jb pritzker, illinois governor, he had some phone with it last night. let me play this very lollapalooza is happening this weekend here in chicago and my kids and i mean, tens of thousands of others are going to be there. >> i've heard other governors talk about how they've canceled there weekend plans. i was going to perform, of course, with blink 182, sunday, but i've canceled in order to clear my schedule one, i'm loving that you have not wanted to stick your neck out and

endorsed are back or someone that you'd like to see camila kamala harris pick, but do you think it is in terms of what a running mate should bring to this ticket? >> do you think it is geography, estate or personality and policy there have to be ready to serve if called upon serving enough to be a good partner. how do you measure ready to serve? that's, a song that subjective the world experienced being elected and trusted by the voters. >> and also you have to be a good partner. we have all of that and we also don't have anyone who is like j.d. vance. we don't have people who are insulting single women who don't have children. we don't have people who want to ban abortion, ban same-sex marriages. so we have candidates who also by the way, as you saw in a potential nominee there, someone who's just fun. and the team that has the most f-a-n i think is a team that wins. i'm hosting in a comic's for camila event on monday night. i've invited many of these i'm not missing something that's why hang out with funny. yeah.

>> you were having fun and that has been missing for a long time, that democratic current one thing j.d. vance has raised that. i think i wanted to ask you about. is he he's he's saying that kamala harris is hiding from taking tough questions. but one, he can say it that way. i will say it this way. kamala harrison, she has gotten in the race, has not stat or stood to take questions from reporters in a fulsome way and she has announced that positions from when she last ran for president to now have shifted on big issues, fracking. one example why do you think she has not? do you think she needs to him? >> so, you know, she's building this plane midair you know, two weeks ago, she was not the nominee. she's putting the campaign together. that's going to come. but the harshest critic of her who has had a lot of questions is now dodging the opportunity to be with her and that's donald trump. so donald the downer donald the dock hunter he's now backing out of the debate that he committed to. and so does my question that yes, she does she need to take she's going to do that. she's going to do that. yes. >> it's good to see you.

thanks for coming in well, breaking news that we're following this morning, the u.s. >> economy added just 100 114,000 jobs in july, marking a slower pace of growth than in recent months. the unemployment rate also unexpectedly ticking up higher. cnn's paula newton joins me now with more has been following these. paula get into the numbers for us. what do they show? >> yeah, 114,000 jobs and not good in terms of they were expecting more than 60,000 more than that, right at 175. so this is quite a slowdown in growth. i will say it is still growth. but what's crucial here, omar is look at that unemployment rate, 4.3%. it also means that more people are getting into the job market get are trying to find a job that can't. because what these numbers bear out, omar is what we're hearing from many people looking for jobs they can't switch jobs as quickly. they can't maintain the salaries are the increases that they want and it's taking so much longer to actually find that job. now, what's all important here though, is the fact that

the federal preserve on interest rates. people were expecting that they are likely to cut in september by a quarter point that may not be enough and that's why it's kind of rattled futures. the federal reserve just had their meeting. they didn't cut interest rates. look at futures, they're sliding. i mean, look, they're not freaking out, but they are certainly unnerved. and omar, i also want to point out that when you look look at earnings from a place like amazon, perhaps off what was expected, but what was more important was the guidance they gave going forward. they're saying they're seeing a cautious consumer. again, stuff from the real economy that you and i are seeing every day. and they're worried going forward about a recession, not amazon specifically, but a lot of economists thinking that we should be at a place of lower interest rates. one bright spot as the interest rates come down, that could stimulate the housing market. and i know a lot of americans have been waiting for those mortgage rates to come down substantially so they can either buy that first home or switch holmes, omar paula newton really appreciate it, will be talking to the acting secretary of labor about some

of these numbers in a little bit to get some more detail on what you laid out, they should be in here alright, meanwhile, we're following other news. kamala harris jumped into the presidential race less than two weeks ago. but had a massive fundraising month in july, twice as much as the trump campaign will explain just how much that is new this morning, president biden also considering more us defenses for israel as the middle east braces for iran's retaliation after the deaths of hamas leaders and justin timberlake is touring in europe. but today we'll have to appear virtually for a dwi case and the u.s stay tuned the russians were trying to spy on us. >> we were spying on them. >> i was having this is a war, but secret wars, secrets and spies and nuclear game. now streaming on max choice hotels is a family of brands with a hotel for any traveler and you

ground game. everybody keeps talking about these few undecided voters that are still out there. come on it's really about making sure that you're for people get to the polls because that's what trump's going to be doing. and he kind of gave up the game that chicago debacle dumpster fire, where he said, if you like me, you're going to vote for me. if you're not going to like me, you're not gonna vote for me and he's not wrong about that in the sense that this election is a complete referendum and where you think the trump future is going. and so that's going to allow harris to get her people to the polls, get her people on the ground to make sure that their supporters get to vote interestingly also, the harris campaign is spending a lot on tv ads and they're spending that because they're getting a lot of contributions directly through these ads. >> otherwise you don't spend that kind of money on these ads. so they are doing their very financially healthy the question is whether this is a honeymoon boon, right? or can this continue through the coming weeks and months when she has to face some more

scrutiny where she has to be interviewed, where she has to lay out an agenda. does the cash keep coming to the polls, keep going up? that's what we'll have to watch and saying we talked about this late last night, which is i don't know the answer in a compressed kind of unprecedented campaign what is the length of the honeymoon period? so that i say that as the backdrop of democratic congresswoman debbie dingell from battleground, michigan. she was on with me earlier and she had something very interesting as debbie dingell often does on what these fundraising numbers say. we would also she's feeling in terms of michigan and what's happening on the ground. listen to this everybody calls be debbie downer. i'm going to go to debbie realist. everybody sent a sugar high right now. there's a new energy, but this election is not over, so, yes, it's wonderful to see that kind of money come in in a laugh. it's grassroots donors, people who have never given before. so people are engaged, but the base on the other side

is engaged to this speak to your point, which is should people be done to say celebrating too soon because obviously the election continues but you should people be wary here of kind of like, i don't know, being overly confident because she's saying she calls it. she's calling sugar high well, a couple of things. >> what they're getting back they have reawakened some coalitions that were dormant during joe biden's campaign so they're getting back some young voters. they're getting back some arab american voters in michigan. they're getting back some black voters that doesn't push them over the edge, that gets them back to the levels of 2020. and we're democrats usually would be. so that's good news, but it's not the whole story. trump meanwhile, is bleeding some folks with some of the nonsensical messaging that they're doing suburban women being being one of them. so he's got to retain his car coalition, which is very loyal. but he can't afford to tick off black women suburban women,

all the folks that he's just throwing, he and j.d vance or just throwing darts out right now on j.d. vance, harry enten was diving into the weird moniker concept and, one of the things that he pointed out was that vance vance is favorability in mid july and then most recently and he is harry sees that it's dropped significantly. and you could see a drop as you know, anyone gets into the headlines are favourability drops over a period of months harry's point is that he's seeing vance's paper ability dropping faster and more significantly. and so he thinks that the weirdness has is having an impact. but then i but then i countered with this. >> how much impact? >> does it running mate have we say historically none. is it going to be in an unprecedented all we do is live in unprecedented is this is going to be chapter seven. >> who knows? i mean, look, i'll say this to my fellow democrats. i wouldn't be getting sugar high and anything right now because of the election were today, chances

are, we're going to lose. i mean, she has a lot of work work to do to lock this thing up. and by the way, if you look at the polls for national polls, anytime a democrat is neck and neck, they're losing in the electoral college. but that's just a fact. so i don't know what sugar high anybody feels there on, but they need to get off that sugar high and get to work. vance, you know, who knows? i mean, the truth of the matter is, i guess lyndon johnson back in the day had some sort of potential original impact on the 1960 election but in our lifetime, i don't think so. i mean, i don't think dick cheney suddenly changed the game for george bush and i don't think you know, kamala harris changed the game for joe biden people either love donald trump or they hate donald trump, and they're gonna vote accordingly. and so j.d. vance has little to do with that. i think i think you're right. but you have to wonder if you're trump. has he being a drag on the ticket? he might not help donald trump get over the edge. but if he's dragging the ticket and right now those numbers are so bad for j.d. vance there particularly bad in his home region in the rust belt, the polling, there is worse for j.d. vance, so i

think trump will tire of a running mate that is dragging the ticket down pretty soon and either make a change are really kind of marginalize them i asked this of arish swallow when he was on one thing that j.d. vance is raising, we talked about this, is he is he's accusing kamala harris of hiding from taking tough questions she hasn't sat for. sadder, stood for taking facing reporters questions in a significant way the reason i posed this is not as selfishly obviously, we all want, we would like to ask some questions about evolution of positions but also in this race to define a candidate before the opponent does, isn't this part of it? >> no, it's a process. this is a process question. i mean, this is something that we all care. i mean, you guys all care about as reporters, you want to start with her but the truth of matter is when i'm sitting around my dinner table thinking about how to pay for college for my kid or about how to afford my mortgage or any of my taxes positions have changed except for the fact that she's going to spend her 300 million

defining herself on tv and a social media, the way she wants, right? and she's going to ultimately sit with you guys, i believe. but the bottom line is, that's not what you should be coming after her on. he should be coming after her on positions that affect regular people who are voting. if you're standing there saying, well, you're not sitting for an interview, the average person's have time to sit around worrying would kamala harris is doing they just want to make sure she's doing something to help them and that's the problem that's the opportunity. >> i think that's the way voters here that i think you're absolutely right they don't care. >> but ultimately they might not know that they care, but they should because we're going to ask questions that they have that they don't have access to her to ask. >> and there's a difference between her putting out an ad that's all the things she wants to say. and then being challenged on some things and that ultimately benefits voters, her own voters who should know her very well and intimately, what she wants to do. >> good news is we still have less than 100 days left. yeah great to see you guys. >> thank you. >> new this morning today's

jobs report is raising red flag coming into our lower than expected. >> what does this mean in this big old question of the federal reserve and the fight against inflation will be right back there was i shall not seek and i will not accept the nomination of my party for another term as your friends, 1968 sunday at nine on cnn imagine a future where plastic is not wasted. >> but instead remade over and over into the things that keep our food fresher our families safer and our planet cleaner to help us get there america's plastic makers are investing billions of dollars to create innovative products and new recycling technologies for sustainable change. because when you push for smarter solutions we'd, things can happen all these games on

4.3%. that's the highest. it's been since october 2021. and the report underscoring concerns that the economy has slowed down too quickly and could lead to a recession. we're going to talk about all of that now with acting secretary of labor, julie su, madam secretary, thanks for being here. really appreciate it. i just want your initial reaction in read on the new data we've gotten here so as usual, we look at not just one month's data, but we look at trends and the three-month trend in job creation this is still 170,000. remember for the last couple of years, we were talking about the labor market is too hot and the plan was always to reach a transition to steady, stable growth and this number is cooler than expected, but it is part of that transition to continued job growth. but at a steadier, more sustainable pace. >> and i guess one of the questions is, i mean it was wednesday at federal reserve chair jerome powell said a broad set of indicators suggest that conditions in the labor market have returned into about

where they stood on the eve of the pandemic, strong, but not overheated, i guess, use his words based on what we've seen this morning. do you agree with that assessment? >> yeah. i mean, when you look at things like the gdp remains high, consumer spending remains really strong. layoffs remain relatively low, and the labor force participation rate remains strong to that it is it reached the highest in over two decades for both men and women of prime age working age. and so when you look at the overall trends, yes, it's still a very strong economy that has defied all expectation in terms of its recovery. and now in terms of its level of sustained steady growth will do you believe it was a mistake not to cut interest? ms rates this past july i won't comment on the fed's policies, but i will say that one of the most most

important measures for us about whether the economy is doing well is how working people are doing and the wages for workers remain higher, the growth remains above inflation. >> and so that means more money in working people's pockets. and i continue to travel the country and meet with workers who our unionizing for the first time have reached a union contract is providing double-digit wage increases. we want to make sure that workers get a fair share of the economy let me that they're helping to make possible and we see that happening and that's one of the measures that we use to indicate that the economy is doing well, we have more work to do and will continue to do it but that is an important measure for us we're in a period of job growth. >> as you mentioned, even if this particular assignment was cooler than expectations, i want to get your take on a specific aspect of it because the chief economist at ziprecruiter told cnn recently that a lot of the growth has come from just a few industries he's health care, government, leisure, hospitality. so in short, overall aggregate

numbers look good, but everyone might not be feeling that goodness equally. can you speak to that and how prevalent of a dynamic that actually maybe yeah. >> i mean, if you look at the numbers even for last month, but certainly again, over trends, the growth has broadened based it's all the industries you mentioned. it's it's it's it's multiple industries. it's primarily private sector, but also summon government we're seeing it across it's the board. and this is important because that also does a sign of economic strength we're seeing growth in your construction, for example, is up 200,000 wilson over the year these are manufacturing is continued a steady growth under president biden's leadership. these are all things that don't happen by accident. they're happened because the investments that we are making are helping to grow certain industries and are leading to private investments in those same sectors. so we are fixing things, were making things does in america again,

there's work that we still need to do, but that those are reflected in the numbers and they're not just single industries that are growing and quickly before we go, do you worry? that were headed for a recession i don't. >> again, the oval indicators are not consistent with recession 114,000 jobs last month is still higher than the last administration had seven months of less than 100,000 jobs. and a four-year overall, nick et decrease. and so we are still looking at over 15 million jobs created in this economy, defying all expectations, a transition as planned from but rapid recovery to sustainable growth and we'll continue to keep an eye on the numbers and continue to do the work to make sure that the prosperity, the job growth opportunities broadly shared and we'll see what the fed does next month when they have the opportunity acting labor secretary julie su, really appreciate you being here thank

biden is now considering sending more us defenses for israel in light of the threat of retaliation from iran, retaliation for the killing of hamas's political leader ismail ismail haniah, were while he was in iran this week. and we'll play for you what white house spokesman john kirby told me about this earlier when you're talking resources, is that is that people are is that hardware? >> it's most likely going to be a combination of both, of course, because it's not just hardware when you're, when you're adding capability to the region jim you've got to add troops into that mix as well to maintain and operate that equipment seen as natasha bertrand is tracking this one from the pentagon. >> natasha, what are you hearing about what they're preparing for? >> okay. president biden in his phone call with israeli prime minister benjamin netanyahu last night, he did say that he would be willing to send additional military deployments

to the middle east to help protect israel against what is possibly going to be a major iranian retaliation for the killing of ishmael haniah earlier this week into iran. now, the u.s. is bracing at this point for something that is possibly much larger and more coordinated than even the iranian attack that we saw on israel in april back when israel assassinated a few members of iran's islamic revolutionary guard corps. that was a major attack with dozens of ballistic missile polls and drones that the u.s largely was able to intercept along with a coalition of allies, who essentially came together to protect israel. and of course, the u.s forces and other allies forces that are in the region. well now they're saying that this could be even bigger than that that's it could be coordinated with hezbollah, which of course is a very powerful paramilitary force in southern lebanon. it could also be coordinated with the many proxy militias that iran has in the middle east that have been launching attacks against us forces over the last several months. and so what the u.s. is

weighing now is just how they're going to be shifting these resources that they already have in the middle east, including amphibious assault ships that are currently in the eastern mediterranean, as well as a carrier strike group that the u.s. has in the gulf of oman, which could be moved closer to lebanon, closer to a possible point of conflict if something were to break out. but of course there's also the consideration of what happened since ever major conflict erupted and the u.s. has to get its citizens out of the region. so another thing they are considering is a possible non-combatant evacuation operation. if it comes to that. but again, everything is in the planning stage at this point remains unclear whether any of it is actually going to be necessary, but they're preparing for the worst essentially natasha bertrand. >> thank you. omar. >> well, it was a year marked by seismic shifts in american politics, social movements, and cultural icons from top to bottom that completely changed the modern landscape. and no, we're not talking about 20:24. this weekend. cnn's original series, 1968 looks at the

drunk that june night and he also says that he's confident that these this charge is going to get thrown out. >> now we're not expecting that to happen in court today. actually, this is somewhat of a do-over of the arraignment. there was a hearing last week where burke actually pointed out there were some errors in the court paperwork. and so the judge asked for this arraignment to happen again. that is why we are now seeing justin timberlake. he will be appearing virtually as you just mentioned, as he is on tour in europe right now for his world tour, we're also expecting him to make a plea which not surprisingly is going to be not guilty. and then well, likely see the next court date set. so this does appear to be a procedural arraignment, and we'll expect this court process to kind of further go on. what we do know, of course, is that this happened on june 18, timberlake, according to police, he failed to stop at a stop sign. he was swerving lanes and when they pulled over, the cop reported that he had bloodshot eye is he performed poorly on a field sobriety test. he failed he didn't he refused rather to take a breathalyzer test three

times and he spent the night in jail. of course, he is going to continue to fight these charges and we're going to remain on top of this. what we do know right now though, is that court has not started so soon as we get update, we'll give it to you, kate all right. >> brynn. thank you so much for following that one for us thanks for being here of course. >> of course, i only came here because i wanted to also speculate on what tom cruise we're going to do at the end of the olympics. would you like to speculate? >> what i would like to see him run straight down the side of the stadium like repelled down. like the burj maybe an don't want to see mayor karen bass get involved. i don't know. i don't know. let's just see which let's see what she can do. >> grab a few will grab a few a barsa base for joining us, everyone. this is cnn news central, cnn newsroom how far would you go to control the fragrance in your home? >> there's an easier way. >> dry air wake vibrant with two times more natural essential oils, but up to 120 days of amazing fragrance per dual pac.
