5:02 am
a travesty of justice. he also hit back at his successor and current president, joe biden, after he labeled him and his supporters as extremists trop made the comments at a rally and support of 2 republican nominees for congress and pennsylvania. it was his 1st public appearance since the f b. i rate joe biden came to philadelphia, pennsylvania to give the most vicious, hateful and divisive speech ever delivered by an american president vilifying. $75000000.00 citizens, plus another, probably 752800 and 50. if we want to be accurate about it as threats to democracy and as enemies of the state, you're all enemies of the state. he's an enemy of to say, you want to know that the enemy of the state is him and the group that control him . mike hannah has been across the rally and joins us now from washington. d. c.
5:03 am
mike, the fact that mr. trump used this speech to hit back hard at president joe biden. them he called him an enemy of the state there. that's not in any way a surprise is it? no, it's not. it was expected that he was going to react strongly to president biden's accusations against him and his mega movement. but in this long rambling stream of consciousness, speech that lasted well over an hour. trump also repeated the lie that the election was stolen. he also accused the biden administration of witnessing the department of justice and the f. b. i this ironic coming from a man who demanded absolute loyalty from the department of justice and in fact fired the director of the f b i. this is what he had to say about the f b i search of his home. a few weeks ago you saw when we witnessed one of the most shocking abuses of power by any administration in american history.
5:04 am
the shameful raid and breaking of my home moral argo was a travesty of just that made a mockery of america's laws, traditions, and principles before the entire world. the entire world was watching and their shock. mike, today it's mr. trump and pennsylvania blasting president biden. i just a couple of days ago, you as president biden was also in pennsylvania. he gave a prime time address in philadelphia, a one in which he warned the trumpet. his supporters posed a threat to us. democracy. why are president biden and former president trump? they're in the same week. well, incidentally, president biden, we'll be back in pennsylvania on monday again for a labor day, a rally. but what the reason is that pennsylvania is absolutely critical in terms of elections. it played
5:05 am
a central role in 2016 in 2020. when biden won at by some 80000 votes, and it's go to play and absolutely critical role in the midterm elections in november and may well determine who controls the senate off to those elections or over. so it is a focus of both parties abide and starting off in a way this election campaign by setting a framework for the election and the way the democrats are going to fight it. and that was to phrase it as a referendum on trump and his mega movement. now the republicans, many of them concerned about this, realizing that trump may be as much a liability as a winning cause. so certainly, biden, now focusing very strongly on trump's participation within the republican party. as it means to drive more voters to the pole who may react angrily to trump and his record of recent times. all right, my can a lie for us there in washington,
5:06 am
d. c. thanks so much for joining us. allison diagnosis professor a political science said shins berg, university, and pennsylvania. she joins us now. allison, we've seen both president biden and former president trump speaking this week in philadelphia. how important is pennsylvania to both democrats and the republicans before these mid term elections in november? pennsylvania is incredibly important. we are a very unusual state. we're remarkable because we have a blend of urban and rural voters that make us very evenly divided. but even more than that, we have an open senate seat and a midterm election, where only a handful of races are even close. and we have an open gubernatorial seat where whoever is going to win this race is going to determine whether pennsylvania is a pro life or pro choice state. and so because a former president trump hasn't divorced both republican candidates for these offices. he has some, some skin in this game and
5:07 am
a president by miss from pennsylvania. so both see not only the fact that pennsylvania is a battle ground, but also that they are very personal stakes here. i imagine we'll be seeing more of them the coming weeks. yeah, and allison, if i could kind of go back to some of the points you're making there. i mean how politically complex is pennsylvania? why is it a swing state? it is incredibly complex. we have philadelphia on the east side of the commonwealth and pittsburgh on the west side of the commonwealth and in between is a t shape of very rural conservative voters and they are, they are just die hard maga. and so that is why in 2016 former president trump one pennsylvania 544000 votes and in 2020 trump last pennsylvania 580000 votes. and you know, 80000 votes is a lot of boats,
5:08 am
but not if you consider the fact that we have in pennsylvania 9000000 registered voters. so it just speaks to how very closely divided we are and, and also where do things stand currently with the big ticket races, races like governor and senator in pennsylvania. these are fascinating races. i mean, these are getting a lot of national attention. b, the senate race feature is not only a sort of bigger than life, and i mean that both literally and figuratively on the democratic side with a candidate who was the lieutenant governor. now john saturn man versus a celebrity, dr. oz. so this is just getting a lot of media attention because ours came pre positioned with that media attention . and then i think it was like 3 days before the primary, lieutenant governor veteran had a stroke. and so he's been sort of out of the campaigning game for a while. so that's gotten some attention to and then both are just the race has
5:09 am
gotten very nasty, but mostly on social media. and then that spreads very quickly. and then this races but nationalized, i'm open to tauriel side because our attorney general josh shapiro is running for governor, which normally is not really well known except for the fact that in a year where roe vs wade was overturned. the republican nominee has stated that he would usher into law the most restrictive abortion anti abortion law in the country if elected doug mastery on it. he rented buses on january 6th to bring them to the stop the steel rally. he went out to arizona to, to look at the audit they are, he is, as you know, giga maga as a gets. he is a very, very close ally of former president trump and actually was subpoenaed by the january 6th committee. so, so it's, this is getting
5:10 am
a lot of attention certainly will be interesting to see how these races play out. allison diagnosed professor of political science at ship in the burg university in pennsylvania. thank you so much for joining us. thanks for having me. nasa has ruled out another launch attempt in the coming days for its artemus one moon mission. the u. s. space agency had to postpone lift off of its giant rocket earlier on saturday after a fuel leak. it was the 2nd time in a week that a technical issue has derailed. the mission. nasa says the leak is too complex to fix and a matter of days and a 3rd attempt will be delayed until at least late september. alan fisher has been on standby at cape canaveral. started miss launch control at t minus for hours and 45 minutes and counting. the rocket was primed. the cone don't underway, but his feeling of the giant rockets began. it became clear that in that famous phrase, we have a problem. the last name has a recommendation of no go for launch to the nasa test rector and last director a leak on the link pumping liquid hydrogen into the tanks was found. engineers run
5:11 am
through the plans to fix it while director charlie blackwell, thompson just called, ah, a scrub. but in the end, i to admit defeat the launch scrub the for saturday. we do not launch until we think it's right. and these teams have a labored over that and that is the conclusion that they came to. so i look at this as a part of our space program, of which safety is the top of the list. it's the 2nd time in a week the much the 8 optimist project had to be stopped short of launch on monday . it was an issue traced back to a faulty gauge launch period. 25 is definitely off the table. we won't be launching this period ends on tuesday. we will not be in launching in this launch period.
5:12 am
launch period 26 and 27 will really depend on the options that the team comes back with likely on monday or early tuesday morning. thousands of gathered in the parks and on beaches across florida, space coast, hoping to see a lunar launch only to leave disappointed my brought friends with us and foreign russia and our friends son's birthday. hovering the big candle to go off, but it didn't in unless you've ever seen a rocket go up. there's nothing like its heart pounding. i mean, shake your whole body and it's just something to say our committee has been plagued with delays with overruns them with a soaring budget. but nasa believes that even a short delay is worth it for a mission that will stretch over years and stretch the frontiers of space. allan fisher, i'll do it a cape canaveral florida. terry versus a retired astronaut and former international space station commander. he says nasa
5:13 am
will have had a good reason to cancel the launch having been in situations like that. there's teams of engineers looking at their computer screens trying talking through, you know, can we try this have, why don't we try that? nasa has been doing that now for over 60 years, so they, they tried a lot and they no one wants to scrub, but no one wants to want. even worse than scrubbing is launching rocket. that's not safe particularly well, it's a rocket scrub. i mean, i was at nasa for 16 years and you know, the shuttle was constantly scrubbing my 1st shuttle flight. there was a thin layer of cloud and we had to wait until the next day. rocket scrubs are nothing new we've been. we've been delaying rocket launches now for 60 years, so that i don't think it's too terrible. although it's we not only have artemus space. x is building a very heavy rocket. blue origin also wants to build a big rocket. so there's not only competition with china, but there's competition internally in america. and so there is some pressure,
5:14 am
you know, to get things moving cuz there are others looking up and wanting to launch also. so competition, i think is a good thing. still had on al jazeera dreams of a new home go up in smoke why hundreds of thousands of property buyers have been waiting years to move into their apartments in india. actually and had to the polls for a historic vote on whether or not to replace their constitution. ah, the journey has begun. the, the full world cup is on its way to cattle. your travel package to the off we go with your weather update for asia. thank you so much for joining in. here's our forecast in india, and particularly heavy falls for northern portions of the country up around or dora con a. but by and large, these monsoon rains really scattered through
