surrogate -- california governor gavin newsom. >> so i really believe in the president, believe in his character. i believe in his cork tense and capacity. >> reporter: democrats are divided. saturday a fifth house member called for president biden to step aside. congresswoman angie craig who represents a swing district in minnesota saying she doesn't believe the president can effectively campaign and win against donald trump. illinois' mike quigley told cbs news the president's comments post debate haven't allayed his concerns. >> now is the time to be candid with ourselves. i appreciate loyalty. this isn't about loyalty, this is a pragmatic politics to avoid a second trump term. >> reporter: in an exclusive interview friday with abc news anchor george stephanopoulos, the president dismissed the criticism from some in his own party. >> i convinced myself of two things. i'm most qualified person to beat him, and i know how to get things done. >> if you can be convinced that you cannot defeat donald trump, will you stand down?

judge overseeing that case today partially granted trump's request saying that she wants a briefing on the matter before deciding further. but this will postpone some of the deadlines in that case and it stems from the supreme court's ruling earlier this week on presidential immunity, highlighting the impact of that decision on the former president's criminal cases. >> natalie brand, thank you. at least five people are dead after a mass shooting in northern kentucky. police were called to a home in the city of florence early this morning. they found four people dead and three others wounded. the suspect fled, setting off a police chase before crashing into a ditch. he died there of a self-inflicted gunshot wound. and tonight at least 16 palestinians are dead after an israeli air strike on a u.n. school that was being used as a shelter. the gaza health ministry says most of the victims were women and children. the attack comes amid rising

hopes that a new cease-fire deal may be within reach. cbs' holly williams has the details. holly? >> reporter: good evening. a senior u.s. official says that hamas' response to the existing cease-fire proposal on wednesday, quote, may provide the basis for closing the deal. the details of that cease-fire plan were outlined by president biden in may and include the release of female, elderly, and wounded hostages in the first stage, and the withdrawal of israeli forces from gaza in the second stage. the states are literally life and death. tomorrow this war which was ignited by the attacks in october on israel will be nine months old. more than 38,000 have been killed in the gaza strip, according to the hamas-run health ministry, and around 120 hostages are still thought to be held captive inside gaza. a recent poll found that 60% of israelis are in favor of the cease-fire proposal.

upon and "the new york times" reported that israel's top generals want a cease-fire even if it means leaving hamas in power in gaza, a sign of a growing rift between israel's military leadership and prime minister benjamin netanyahu. but netanyahu refuted that saying, quote, we will not capitulate to the whims of defeatism in the "new york times" or anywhere else. the truth is, netanyahu is under pressure. israel's closest ally, the u.s., is urging him to negotiate a cease-fire. but at home, two far right-wing members of his cabinet have threatened to bring down the governing coalition if he agrees to the truce. >> holly williams, thank you. in iran today a former heart surgeon, masuod pezighan won the runoff election. he wants to improve relations with the west and promised to serve all iranians during a speech today. he beat out a hard-liner and replaces ebrebrahimraisi who di.
