8:02 am
secure the democratic. russo tech, donald trump seeming to relish the clash of personalities with a man. she'll probably face on the election day before i was elected vice president before i was like the united states senator, i was elected attorney general of the state of california, and i was a court room prosecutor before them. and in those roles, i took on perpetrators of all kinds creditors, who abused women, fraudsters, ripped off consumers. cheaters who broke the rules for their own game. so hear me when i say, i know donald trump's try. republican lawmakers took aim at harris, highlighting the economic disruptions from the cove at 19 pandemic and russia's
8:03 am
invasion of ukraine, which came during biden's tenure. remember, both of the persons running for president now have a record. they have both served in an administration here in the last, within the last several years. so you can compare how you and your family were doing on the 1st drop of ministration and how you and your families are doing now. nobody said there was a trump himself, did not mention harris on tuesday instead discussing last week's attempt on his life in a fox news interview together with his running make j. d. them. but harris will shortly be back in the spotlight on wednesday. that's when job i didn't. now back in washington, after ending his coven, self isolation is due to address the nation on his decision to drop out of the race in favor of his vice president. and were now joined by political analyst and deputy editor of the parliament magazine, william glue croft in brussels for more. so william campbell harris's 1st campaign
8:04 am
rally of what's already shaping up to be an extraordinary political season. what did you make of that? good morning, michael. good to see you and you know, it was in many ways a very by the book standard campaign event that you would imagine um, despite all of this talk of how 2024 is, you know, the make or break moment for american democracy. she really focused on his bread and butter issues that had been democratic style awards for decades. you know, health care, women's rights, gun control, you know, helping a prosperous middle class these, these talking points that we hear time and again and every presidential cycle. yes . couple of harris talked about donald trump's criminal troubles. yes, she does. and she touched on him trying to uh, you know, steal the election in 2020, basically. and we heard this line that i think bring it here again here over and over again about how she knows donald trump's type, given court prosecutors,
8:05 am
a background. and most of that had a dress which was met with great you for you in the audience locally in milwaukee wisconscin where just basic stump speech. unfortunately, very light on, on the substance as these kinds of speeches are, we don't quite know what harris, his plans are to see all these things through, but met with great energy from the audience. you see light on substance talk to us about the divisive issues. she'll have to handle issues that many feel her predecessor, in this campaign, joe biden didn't deal with effectively, for example, the war. and gosh, it comes to mind. yeah, it has to come to mind because this week, almost you, you almost can't make this stuff up right. benjamin netanyahu was in washington to give a joint, an address to a joint session of congress to meet with joe biden. coming to harris is actually not going to be meeting with him. she is keeping to a what the white house, the set is a longstanding commitment to an event in indiana. but apparently she will be
8:06 am
meeting with miss know privately, and people on both sides of the issue are waiting and watching and looking very closely for signs of any difference in harris's position from joe bite. and joe biden is a stalwart supporter of israel. he has called himself a scientist in the past, and harris has been a little bit more muted a she doesn't have that same connection to israel that joe biden does. and especially people like in michigan were of this so called uncommitted vote has really taken a hold, were all large air of american community and their supporters. art has really protested joe biden, they're waiting to see what's coming of harris has to say she is on record for showing a bit more sympathy to the palestinian polite in gaza. i'll be at, it's a low bar, i guess, and us politics to show that kind of a, that kind of humanity and, but at the same time, she's also been a strong supporter of a pack. she has spoken at some, it's for the american israel,
8:07 am
a community there in the lobby group. so it's a really wait and see moment on those kinds of issues. it's also a bigger question of how much an issue like that plays into the larger role of who you might be voting for in the fall if that's really an issue that america, that most american voters truly are energized about bullying well less than a minute. but if you listen to the reporting from the us, this lightning quick transition from bite into harris as injected, renewed energy and the democrats. but there are observers who say they might have been better position with some kind of contested nomination process. yeah, it's a risk. it certainly is like on one hand, the party needs to coalesce quickly around a candidate because there's not so much time by the standards of american politics . but the other hand, it could look like what people are calling a coordination, which might turn people off in a democratic system that someone has just hand to pick the door. it seems to be a state a complete. and also that she's not tested, right. she ran 2020 not
8:08 am
a great campaign issue really ready for prime time, so to speak, to go up against donald trump. so these are the risk that, that the democratic party are taking as they co last, or they say around the colors. right? that is a political analyst, it will include craft as ever, many things really in the united states, there is growing anger following a police shooting of an arm to black women in the state of illinois. authorities release this body can footage showing the moments leading to the fatal shooting. the women 36 year old sonia massey had called 911 to report a suspected intruder. 2 deputies responded. one of them told massey to check on a pot of boiling water and then told her to drop the pot of hot water and shot her has been charged with murder. let's listen in to the father of sonya massey speaking after the release of the video. but you know what all i want justice for
8:09 am
my baby. yeah. the yes. the constitutional law professor gloria brown, marshall of the john jay college of criminal justice in new york. what reforms are needed to better prevent in prosecute police brutality, murder of george floyd in may of 2020, triggered a lot of protests. it also triggered legislation. that's why they were wearing body cameras because of the protest that it taking place in this country. and also the legislation that was proposed to george floyd justice in the leasing act, which would have national criminal justice reform. that legislation or proposed legislation is languishing and congress. and so that's one thing that i think the general public is going to ask of whoever the next president united states is,
8:10 am
especially if it's prominent here is the one the color that she make sure that that legislation is passed, that she does everything and in her power to pass legislation, that reforms or criminal justice system, but we also have to put pressure on our prosecutors. as i stated this one case and in george floyd was there was a special prosecutor brought in. but there are 1200 cases where of the prosecutors in those cases across the country. so we must have pressure on our prosecutors to actually do their jobs, as rarely as they would prosecute someone who is a civilian, who would commit the same crime against another civilian. we have to have them prosecute the police who are so often killing on arms civilians with impunity. and profit tutor is doing nothing about it. not even seeking a diamonds, let alone i'm bringing charges and cases against these people. in the last one i have to make when there is a, a civil case brought that little case that's not criminal. nothing comes out of the
8:11 am
pocket of a police officer in a civil case. tax payer money pays the victim's family. in a case of police involved civilian shooting, when is found that the person's rights were violated, not the police officers paycheck is the tax payers paycheck. so we have to have a way and that sends a message to police officers. they can not commit these crimes with impunity, and profit tutors must do their jobs again. constitutional law professor, gloria brown, marshall at the john jay college of criminal justice in new york. a quick look now and some of the other stories making news around the world at this hour, us democratic senator bob menendez has announced he will resign from congress next month following his conviction for corruption. he was found guilty of last week of taking bribes for corrupt acts, including steering billions of dollars in u. s. h. egypt and the other senate democrats had threatened to expel menendez if he didn't quit. thank you for this opportunity to drench will rain and flooding has

8:13 am
central nervous system, causing paralysis in death. in extreme cases. the w. h o says a mass fractionation campaign, maybe need joe english is with the united nations children's agency unicef. earlier he told us how his agency is struggling to prevent the spread of polio in this trip. so we've already begun a risk analysis and we will say working with local communities to make sure that they are aware of the risk and know how to prevent. but the reality is, is that we can give people another advice. but when you have 600 people in some cases in casa sharing a single toilet, you know, there's a very different, right, there's a huge difference between knowing the risk, understanding the risk, and so being able to prepare yourself and prevent the spread. and so ultimately, as i say, we need to be able to get see me being able to, to provide children and families with safe drinking or so with how to quit sanitation. you know, it's a solid reality, the portable, the toilet
8:14 am
a one of the supplies that we've had, issues getting into the gaza strip, you know? and so we said this again and again, but it bears repeating the only way that we will be able to guess in, with a scale of humanitarian support that is needed to prevent these kind of outbreaks and to adjust the jewish needs, that the population is a sci fi is a release of the hostages, and it's an end to these absolute haras to joe english with the united nations children's agency. unicef. here's a reminder of the top story we're following for you. come, la harris has begun her campaign to become the next us president. with a campaign rally in wisconsin. as her big gainesville mentioned, she told supporters she has enough delegates to secure the democratic pardons from the presidential nomination. and we will end it up next. our business show puts the spotlight on indonesia projected to soon be the world's 5th largest
