newsroom. i'm kim brunhuber. it's 4:00 a.m. here in atlanta and in north carolina, where vice president kamala harris is getting ready to reveal her economic policies for future administration. they're expected to include plans for a federal ban on price gouging. that's aimed at lowering grocery prices but all those efforts to make housing more affordable, especially for first-time buyers. momentum for harris has been building since she secured the democratic nomination. and on thursday, harris and president joe biden appeared together at a public event for the first time since he exited the race cnn's mj lee has the story for the first time in three-and-a-half weeks, she's going to make one hell of a president retiring lame duck president joe biden, appearing at an official event alongside vice president kamala harris, the brand new democratic nominee for president. thank you here's

first paying tribute to the man who chose her as his running mate four years ago, there is a lot love. it is president the pair promoting the administration's war to lower the cost of prescription drugs. it popular idea that heavily affects senior and black americans two years ago as vice president, i was proud to cast the tie-breaking vote that the power to negotiate thursday's event coming as harris is quickly establishing her own campaign with distinct policies and messaging and offering an early preview of how she might try to navigate biden's low marks on the economy how much a father vice president harris might political reasons existence itself from your economic. he's not going to.

harris who until recently was eagerly making statements like this, bidenomics is working now carefully assessing how to selectively break from biden. she is not expected to carry the banner of bidenomics and said she is poised to highlight specific policy prescriptions aimed at lowering prices on friday, harris will travel to north carolina to propose a federal ban on price gouging to lower grocery costs president meanwhile, biden set to be still smarting from being forced just out of the 2024 race last month, sources say he won't soon forget the democrats who played the most active roles in pushing him to drop out including former house speaker nancy pelosi, biden now focused on burnishing his own legacy and preparing to be an active surrogate for the new harris-walz campaign. >> the guy we're running against that's his name donald doctor. donald i want to get

rid of this. >> now, as for the vice president's economic policy rollout speech in north carolina on friday. we are learning that as a part of those remarks, the vice president will be unveiling four-year plan that is aimed at trying to lower the cost of housing, including we are told a $25,000 down payment assistance for first-time home owners, as well as the construction of new housing and tax incentives for the building starter homes. of course, high costs in food and housing are among the, some of the most stubborn economic challenges for the biden administration. so it's no surprise that she is trying to address those issues as the vice president is clearly trying to put a little bit more distance between herself and president biden's economic record. and jay lee, cnn at the white house because it's by both sides show how north carolina is once again being viewed as a battleground state since biden ended his

reelection bid and endorsed harris, trump has made two stops to the state, invested millions of dollars in new ads. >> trump beat hillary clinton here in 2016, getting just over 50% of the votes on his way the winning the white house that year, he won north carolina again in 2020 with a much narrower margin over president biden, just 74,000 votes state hasn't backed a democratic candidate for president in 16 years meanwhile, as we heard, donald trump has been discussing the cost of food against the backdrop of his private golf club in new jersey. bank by an array of breakfast cereals, coffee, milk, and fruit. trump slammed harris is economic policies falsely accused her of being responsible for the rising prices and inflation felt all over the world. and once again, his attacks became personal cnn's alayna treene has the details former president donald trump on thursday address the press at his golf club in bedminster, new jersey and the whole point of this speech was so really drive home his message on the economy.

>> and i, when i talked to donald trump's senior advisers, they said that was really the goal for this entire week that they wanted him to really drive a contrast between his economic policy and that which of his record when he was in office and compare that to what harris is going to propose on friday in north carolina. now he had a series of props around him, a bunch different groceries and really the point for him was to try and argue that kamala harris is responsible for the crunch that many americans are feeling on their wallets. they also want to tie her to the biden administration's economic policy part of that is because they know that donald trump pulled higher than joe biden when it came to that issue. and they believe that is a winning issue for him in november and that was really interesting because donald trump really stuck to the script he brought out a binder with tim for these remarks. he put it on the podium and then he read it line by line. however, once he started taking questions from the press, that restraint went out the window and you really saw donald trump revert back to

as well worn playbook. i asked him specifically you have a lot of allies who are pressuring you both privately and publicly to stop with the personal attacks on kamala harris and focus on a more disciplined message, particularly when it comes to the issues like the economy, but also immigration and prime. and he told me that he actually believes that he is entitled to those attacks. take a listen. >> i think i'm entitled to personal attacks. i don't have a ladder respect for i don't have a lot of respect for her intelligence and i think she'll be a terrible president. and i think it's very important that we win and whether the personal attacks or good or bad. i mean, she's certainly attacks me personally. she actually called me weird. >> now, the reason donald trump's answer there was so important is because this is something that so many people who want him to win this fall all are telling him not to do. he said that harris makes him very angry that he is entitled to these personal attacks, but

you have heard from a series of his top allies, including nikki haley, who recently endorsed him and went on stage at the republican national convention and said that she stood behind him. the former house speaker, kevin mccarthy, even one of his advisers because there's kellyanne conway, all of them went out publicly this week and said, you need to stop with the attacks on harris and begin talking more about the issues. but it was clear today that donald trump seems like he does not want to do that and will not be changing his strategy alayna treene, cnn, bridgewater, new jersey donald trump's vice presidential pick, j.d. >> vance has agreed to a debate with his democratic rival, he and minnesota governor tim walz will face off on october 1. ben says he also accepted cnn's invitation for debate on september 18, but while says yet to sign on harris and trump is scheduled to have their first debate on september 10 or campaign says, it's open to an additional debate in october, but won't settle the details on that until the first ones in the books box in doha, qatar

over a gaza ceasefire and hostage release deal are expected to resume in the coming hours. delegations from israel, the u.s egypt, and qatar will pick up where they left off on thursday when no deal was reached. separately, egypt and qatar are in communication with hamas, which reiterated that any agreement must include flew to complete withdrawal of israeli forces from gaza. today's talks come a day after hamas officials announced the death toll in gaza after ten months of war with israel as past 40,000. while israel disputes that and says it's killed more than 17,000 militants the staggering number of dead, most of them women and children, has brought renewed pressure on both hamas and israel to make a deal, and end the fighting on average, about 130 people have been killed every day in gaza over the past ten months this care of the israeli military's destruction of homes, hospitals schools, and places of worship

is deeply shocking international humanitarian law is very clear on the paramount importance on the protection of civilians and civilian property and infrastructure having to the urgency and pressure for a deal as a potential iranian attack on israel, iran has threatened retaliation for last month's assassination of a senior hamas leader who was visiting tech run, right? want to go live to london now and elliott gotkine with the very latest on the ceasefire talks so elliott, as we head into a new day of negotiations, where do things stand kim? >> they stand pretty much where they have stood for the past nine months so far in the sense that there hasn't been a breakthrough in on and off talks ever since the last one and only ceasefire came into effect and then ended at the end of last november but there is hope i would be loath to say optimism, but there is hope that this time perhaps they could get things over the line. certainly, we know where we stand, we know that pressure is

perhaps greater than it has ever been at any point in the past nine months to try to get a deal mainly because there is the hope that if a deal is done, it could fall stole an expected attack by iran and its proxy, hezbollah for the assassination of hezbollah's top military commander in beirut. and the assassination of ismail haniyeh, the head of hamas's political bureau, who was assassinated in a guesthouse in tehran. now, we heard from hamas's political bureau on thursday he stating where its position was and it says that an agreement in its words, must achieve a comprehensive ceasefire, a complete withdrawal from gaza of israeli forces, the return of displaced persons, reconstruction in addition to a prisoner exchange deal in exchange for the release of hostages who were kidnapped on october the seventh, israel, for its part, has got a few conditions of its own. and this according to a regional diplomat, is where summer, some of the stumbling blocks lie, namely that israel doesn't,

israel wants to have the ability to screen palestinians moving north to the gaza strip to prevent armed men from moving north and then reconstituting themselves as a fighting force. it wants to have a veto over the identities of some of the palestinian prisoners being released in exchange for israeli hostages. and it also wants to maintain control of the so-called philadelphi corridor between rafah in the south of gaza and the egyptian border. because israel sees that as the main conduit for weapons and other the materials that go towards supporting hamas on top of that prime minister netanyahu has repeatedly said that the war will not end until there is in his words, total victory, something that his own defense minister publicly described as total nonsense. so there's obviously divisions within the israeli side, but the israelis while they're in doha, hamas is not, but it's speaking with the egyptian and qatari mediators. and i suppose another reason why there may be a window of opportunity right now is that israel's parliament or knesset is on

recess until october. and that means that netanyahu's far right coalition members who have threatened to bolt the coalition if netanyahu you are who signs a ceasefire agreement, they may not be able to recall parliament to hold some kind of no confidence vote to bring down the government. in this window. and that could of course give netanyahu time to replicate them in some way to prevent them from bolting the coalition. that's another reason kim, why right now, although it may not be now or never but it's certainly seen as the best chance of getting some kind of ceasefire agreement. and there has been at any point in the past nine months, interesting, it's a good point watson. >> thank you so much for that update. elliott gotkine in london. appreciate that ukraine is pressing ahead with its cross-border foray into russia. president volodymyr zelenskyy is confirming for the first time that the russian town of sudzha is now in ukrainian hands on kyiv's forces have advanced 22 miles into russia, reportedly taking more than 80

settlements and over 400 square miles of land. meanwhile, two senior us officials tell cnn, moscow appears to be moving thousands of troops from ukraine back to russia to try to stop kyiv's advance. some ukrainian military officials say they don't see that, but the white house believes it's happening it is apparent to us that mr. putin and the russian military are diverting some resources, some units towards the kursk oblast to extensively counter what the ukrainians are doing. >> it doesn't mean that mr. putin has given up military operations in the northeast part of ukraine or even down towards the south, towards places like zaporizhzhia. there's still active fighting along that front ukrainian operation is the biggest penetration into russian territory since world war ii. and a major embarrassment for the kremlin. as nick paton walsh reports from the russian border, ukrainian troops are facing no resistance crossing over this is where russia

begin. it's startling to see you there steady flow of military vehicles that probably an ambulance and armor just passing through the russian border point here that is the border posts that clearly got heavily hit when ukraine moved in hard over a week ago, russia's borders here completely undefended. >> there's also remarkable to freedom with which the ukrainian military are moving around here they simply aren't afraid of the drones that have hampered their every move. for the past months that says the border service, the fsb, the russian security services of russia as bullet hole above the rules and bullet holes in the rules themselves now, this is what so startling about this offensive with a volume of western supplied armor that we're seeing passing back and forth, their passage through here into russia unimpeded in tie that rochelle from canada. >> i should note we get it your

families election. will you do? if you're not in the eurozone thought i was just saying about how frequently i've been going back and forth over the last week or so you get a real sense of euphoria correa but ultimately to the enduring question is what is all this for? >> what is the end game? yes, it's a huge embarrassment for vladimir putin but they're sending some of their best equipment deep into russia. and i'm sure in the back of the minds of these troops as the question of what ultimately are we going to achieve? and we still don't know the answer to that. >> ukraine has also said that they've had an extraordinary number of prisoners of war that they've captured as they advanced, particularly until one russian military base saying that the caption in one day alone, 102, replenishing what they refer to as the exchange fund that they're going to use these russian prisoners to exchange him for ukrainians caught by russia

sure. a remarkable development there you saw at that border, the confidence and the ease in which ukrainian forces are pushing up into russia. and i've got to tell you, after all the months of seeing drones holding ukraine back, the fact that they're not a threat suggests some extraordinary technological advantage. frankly, on the battlefield. and i'm sure kyiv will be exploited seeing that in the days ahead when we come back, federal authorities are charging multiple people in their investigation into last year's death of friends, actor matthew perry and taylor swift fans in london must be over the moon. >> the first of five shows went off without any security concerns. we'll take you to wembley stadium just ahead. stay with us i started was sleeping. >> okay. but i was waking up so tired. then i tried news equals sleep nasal strips, their four-point with design. hope is my nose from maximum amount flop, so i breathe better and we treat better and stay me better days. >> start with z equal not lysol

matthew perry's assistant and an alleged dealer known as the ketamine queen. >> among the five. now charged in the death of this sometimes sardonic star known as chandler bing on one of the most successful sitcoms of all time to 15, coffee house harry had a long history of drug abuse and mental health struggles matthew perry sought treatment for depression and anxiety and went to a local clinic where he became addicted to intravenous ketamine. when clinic doctors refused to increase his dosage, he turned to unscrupulous doctors, don't mark chavez has agreed to plead guilty to conspiracy to sell the drug to dr. salvador plasencia, who allegedly would inject perry and expressed a desire to be his go-to for drugs. >> he wrote in a text message in september 2023 quote, i wonder how much this moron will pay. >> prosecutors allege those doctors may tens of thousands

of dollars from the friends star base supplied matthew perry with large amounts of ketamine in exchange for large sums of money charging perry $2,000 for a vial that cost dr. chavez approximately $12 when i became too much, prosecutors say perry turn to a street supplier. he was 54 when he died last october. >> i think he's probably one of the funniest human beings in the world. >> you know he's just so funny. >> he's he is genuinely a huge heart obviously, struggled cause of death, acute effects of ketamine with drowning, a factor according to an autopsy report, found unresponsive in the hot tub of his los angeles home by his lawyer anytime live in assistant kenneth iwamasa, who authorities say admitted he injected perry numerous times on the day he died. >> he's pleaded guilty to

conspiracy to distribute ketamine, causing death these defendants took advantage of mr. perry's addiction issues to enrich themselves in the end, these defendants were more interested in profiting off mr perry than carrying for his well-being investigators believe this went well beyond matthew perry. they say they've uncovered a quote, broad underground criminal network. they believe the queen of ketamine has been dealing in north hollywood since 2019 that year they say she's sold ketamine too young man named cody maclaurin, who overdosed and also died she was in court for a thursday, pled not guilty. so did dr. salvador plasencia. he is still allowed to operate his clinic but he has to have a note on the door telling patients about the case and he's not allowed to prescribe controlled substances. his trial date set for early october nick watt, cnn, los angeles celebrity

attorney and legal analyst, christopher melcher joined me last hour to talk about how authorities went about their investigation here. yes they did a great job in investigating and taking their time to kind of work up the chain from the assistant who administered this fatal dose to matthew all the way he up to these doctors who were getting it and so that's super important because there has to be accountability. >> obviously nothing we can do for matthys sake at this point, but for other people who would find themselves in the same situation, there needs to be some accountability for what happened looking, sort of more broadly, talk, talk to us about ketamine. i mean, normally it's an anesthetic. i understand, but it can be prescribed as well. right. what do we know about that and how perry was using it? >> that's right. so there is this off-label use for depression and anxiety and so matthew was being prescribed

that, you know, it sounds like under some kind of controlled supervision by a doctor at this clinic. and he had received the last infusion of that maybe a week or two before his death at and then there was this recreational or illegal use of it that although a doctor was involved in providing at this this was not for medical necessity. this was basically because of his drug habit and there's a popular drug that is available but here in these doses this is obviously fatal yeah. you talk about accountability. so i want to play you some sound from one of the defendants attorneys the lawyer for dr. plasencia, listen to this mr. perry was on the ketamine treatment medically supervised, medically prescribed and while the u.s. attorney may disagree he with dr. plasencia is medical judgment. there was nothing criminal at the time and more

importantly, the ketamine that was involved in mr. perry's passing was not related to mr. dr. plasencia that was provided by another party sometime later nothing criminal at the time. >> he says that what you'd expect him to say, i suppose what what do you make of this as a as a defense? >> well, the u.s. attorney's office did a really good job in the indictment and it's this charging document where they lay out their case which include texts communications between these two doctors. and so sure. there's there's a presumption of innocence and that needs to be afforded good to these defendants. but this looks not like a regular doctor that would be giving prescriptions or supervising a patient with a us attorney's offices described these folks is really being street level drug dealers is the kind of conduct that's alleged to have engaged in so i don't know that

when these facts come out or presented to a jury that it's going to look as good as the defense attorney portrayed it just now i'll times while spleen say they've arrested four men in connection with the shooting death of former general hospital actor johnny wactor. >> wactor was killed when he interrupted what appear to the theft of a catalytic converter from a car 318 year-olds were booked on suspicion of murder and a 22-year-old on suspicion of being an accessory. los angeles mayor is calling for a full accountability in the case. cnn has reached out to determine if the men have legal representation before naming them. taylor swift hits the stage in london tonight for the second of her five errors tour shows in the british capital. and it's all under the umbrella of heightened security fans crowded wembley stadium early yesterday to trade bracelets and find their seats. it's been more than a week since three shows were canceled in vienna after austrian police they say they foiled an

you watching us here in the states, canada, and around the world. >> i'm kim brunhuber. this is cnn newsroom, donald trump and kamala harris are sharing dueling visions for america's economy trump made his elite golf course in bedminster, new jersey. the setting for his false accusations about harris driving up the cost of consumer goods is aides set up tables filled with prompts, including food charts and a model homes indicates certain costs that have risen vice president kamala harris is set to announce her economic policies later today in north carolina, she appeared alongside president joe biden on thursday for the first time since he dropped out of the race, then vice presidential debate between senator j.d. vance and governor tim walz is now set for september 18, and while trump is indeed running against

harris, it sometimes seems like he just can't stop fixating on president biden. cnn's brian todd explains at thursday's news conference, another instance where the former president couldn't help himself and joe biden too, i mentioned him, but he sort of gansu it all started with the debate. it's been almost a month since president biden has been in donald trump's political rearview mirror, almost a month at trump's actually been running again kamala harris. but trump just can't let go of joe biden. >> joe biden is a very angry man. you know that right? >> they put it a candidate and we beat him badly at rallies in news conferences and in his long interview with elon musk, trump has repeatedly brought biden up double forget, i beat. >> i beat biden. he failed in the debate miserably trump gloats over biden's exit incessantly ridicules the president. >> he even did an impression of biden-era sort of like a question like what did you have

for dinner tonight? >> remember joe, what kind of ice cream is your favorite vanilla? >> liked it trump's barbs over the debate, analysts say, give a clue to his fixation. if we didn't have a debate, he's still be there. can you imagine if we didn't have a debate why the hell did i debate? >> donald trump is obsessed with it because he wants the race that he had a month ago. it seemed like he was on a glide path to victory. he knew how to the run against joe biden or trump biographer says, what also could be at play here is what he believes is trump's preoccupation with people who have opposed him in any way, donald has said many times that his life philosophy is a single word rabanne but anytime he slighted or wronged in any way, he's like a crow that never forgets the person who threw rocks at them. trump also seems a bit obsessed with a false conspiracy theory. he's been propagating about biden leaving the race what they did to him

was disgraceful by the way and it really is a threat to democracy. it was a coup, the coup. >> this was a coup of a president of the united states. he didn't want to leave and they said we can do it the nice way, or we can do it the hard way. the presidency was taken away from joe biden and i'm no biden fan. he had a rough debate. but that doesn't mean that you just take it away like that. >> analysts say there's a serious political risk with trump's continued harping on biden. >> the risk is that he is unable to run an effective campaign against kamala harris, every republican that i talked to says that what donald trump should be focusing on is the economy is crime, is border security but donald trump has not been able to stay on message. >> we reached out to the trump campaign to ask why the former president has kept mentioning president biden following biden's exit from the race. and to see if the campaign had any other comment for our story. we haven't heard back brian todd, cnn washington

thailand is a step closer to getting a new prime minister. >> and while she would be the youngest person ever to hold the post, her name is very familiar to tie voters. cnn's marc stewart joins us now with the latest. so mark are the new prime minister, isn't a stranger to thailand's political and right indeed, kim, good morning. thailand's new prime minister or python time. if she knew why is from a political dynasty in thailand, powerful divisive yet has been part of the political landscape and often turbulent political landscape in thailand for the past two decades she made this quick rise to prime minister just hours ago, approved by parliament after the previous prime minister was ousted after a court ruling over some constitutional concerns after an appointment in his cabinet her party, the coalition, had the votes as she was able to be approved by the parliament clement as the next prime

minister of thailand let's look back at our history because it's pretty interesting to see this family dynasty, this family legacy. first of all, as we mentioned, she just 37-years-old, making her the youngest prime minister in thailand history. her father is former prime minister yet he was ousted in 2006 after a military coup. but the family bonds, the family legacy goes even beyond that her aunt was the first prime minister of thailand, also exited also exited office. there was also a coup involved well with her, so it gives you an idea as to the very rocky political landscape that pantone time shinawat is interesting. but analysts point out are her, her movement into politics wasn't necessarily a surprise. they say it was a long time coming because there are recollections that when she was a child, she would be with her father at many events, so

she she got a full taste of the political atmosphere she was educated in thailand as well as the united kingdom. and she will face some big challenges when she, when she takes over, including thailand's economy, her predecessor made some big strides i say try to jumpstart the economy, particularly with zhao creation and coming up with ways to increase spending. we don't know if that is what her focus will be. she just held a news conference, so we're getting a little bit more insight. but she will face and challenges just based off the political landscape of the past we should zero point out that she will be able to establish your own cabinet. so perhaps that will give us a better idea of the direction that the government will be heading and kim, this is for all intensive purposes, a final decision but the king actually have to sign off on that the proper term is royal endorsement that's something that is expected in the
