5:01 pm
the present dissolves parliament and order is the release of the former prime minister in jail opposition either canada z a. the o u, as far as present combat. all right, so selected a running nathan of them is an action against donald trump. she's chosen minnesota governor of tim waltz. he is 60 years old and is a 2nd time government as seen as having a down to us midwest in atlanta rolled rentals. has this report, like many americans are, were worried a few weeks ago. not many people outside of minnesota knew who tim waltz was, but he changed that with one simple word. weird. these are weird people on the other side. they want to take books away. they want to be in your exam room that's . that's what it comes down to a don't you know get sugar coating this? these are weird ideas. we're not going to play their game. we called them out for the weird nonsense that they believe. well, it says,
5:02 pm
notion that there is something fundamentally odd about donald trump is running, made j. d vance, and their policies on health care, abortion rights, family issues and more caught fire with democrats, trending online, and repeated by many others. pamela harris, herself as the years. but watch is more than just a democratic need in color is served 2 terms as minnesota governor, including during the widespread protests following the killing of george floyd in minneapolis in 2020. i spoke this evening to uh, to george floyds, siblings. uh, quite extensively. uh, i understand that rate, we talked about it, we understand what has to happen well served in the minnesota national guard and worked as a public school teacher for 2 decades before running for congress. then the governor's office, as governor, he oversaw a major expansion of labor rights protections for abortion,
5:03 pm
free school meals and family and parental leave. waltz has called for a cease fire and gaza and called people who do not support the by the administration's policy. there civically engaged voters asking for change. waltz has a plain spoken midwestern sense ability and a willingness of taking on his political flows in blood terms. attributes that the harris campaign hopes will catch john with voters rob rentals and how to 0. let's bring it up. correspondent john henry and in philadelphia with more on this and the all the running mate option is governance. jo shapiro, pennsylvania. how is tim waltz likely to go down over the of the edge? right. a lot of people thought they'd be an answering who's going to be for josh repair. oh, because he's governor of pennsylvania. the state i'm in right now. we're coming to harris is expected to make his announcement later on this afternoon. he also would
5:04 pm
have been popular in a number of ways, but he is also a devout jew who has been very supportive of the us policy a on is real and it's war and gaza in that might have upset the democratic base. there was a long history of introducing vice presidential candidates in states other than their own. and tim waltz was a popular candidate nationwide. he does it po broadly to the midwest. he is. if anything more progressive than commentary, harris who's a former prosecutor known for putting a lot of people in jail walls. on the other hand, it was in minnesota during the george floyd episode and thereafter, and is known as the man who was in the national guard for 25 years. as a contrast to donald trump, who was able to get out of service in vietnam by claiming he had bones 1st and so
5:05 pm
was, is a progressive who can play to moderate interest as well as a very plain spoken 60 year old midwestern guy and sounds exactly like that so so far the reaction from the party has been strong, including party leaders like nancy pelosi, who said on american television early this morning. he was a terrific choice. the bible was training from in paul's in places like pennsylvania. early of this. yeah. now it's, the polls are showing a tight to contest between comma harris and donald trump. now how much of an uphill struggle is she likely to face in those crucial swing states? that's right, harris's close, the gap in those pause is all still within the margin of error in most pools. so we don't have a clear leader, but trump was leading binding by as many as 6 points nationwide. and it was leading in most,
5:06 pm
if not all of those midwestern swing states that end up deciding the election, including as far east here as pennsylvania. now harris has come much closer. she might get a bump with the vice presidential pick as well. but with the 100 days or so left to go between now and the election, there are massive swings that could take place said michael dukakis was a 15 points ahead. a batch in the late eighty's and he did not end up being the parties. nominees, so yeah, there's many a, a slit tricks becoming a lip harris who is definitely close that gap. and right now this is a real race all within the margin of error. thank you so much, john, 100 reporting to us from philadelphia. well anyway, i spoke to jennifer victo, who is a professor of political science at george mason mason university. and she says that while harris is picking tim waltz for taking some people by surprise,
5:07 pm
it will likely broad in the appeal of candidacy. that is honestly a really interesting choice. i imagine many americans are going to wake up this morning and asked 1st who to wells is many americans hadn't heard of him. those of us that are very tuned into politics. started hearing his name more over the last couple of weeks. as speculations about vice presidential picks started going on a 2 miles up. it appears to have put on a very successful sort of low key campaign for himself on social media and elsewhere. and, and news appearances to uh, to show folks who he is and he has a very uh, sort of personable, related, bold personality, a very kind of midwestern vibe. so to say. and it seems that perhaps harris has chosen him for these positive attributes that she thinks may make the ticket more
5:08 pm
appealing to, to swing voters. i saw him talking about republicans in a way that i hadn't heard democrats talking about republicans before democrats. up till now have. busy in pacing the trump campaign as you know, threats to democracy and very dire and lots of negativity. and wells came out and started calling the weird and just, you know, not treating them as if republicans are in a dire mortal threat to them. but just as somebody that you wouldn't want to hang out with because they're mean, and this was not a line of framing that we have seen. democrats successfully use against republicans in the past and wells delivered it in a sort of such a personable, kind of softer way that i think it just resonated with more people. a lot of folks, i think, were sometimes turned off by democrats who felt like they were getting their fingers wagged at them for,
5:09 pm
for making bad choices or something like that. and wells has uh, just much more reliable, softer kind of approach to talking about. the democrats, political opponents, the signing our attention now to northern israel. there's been a series of drives, nordstrom, southern lebanon, a struct, several areas, triggering air, raid sirens, explosions wide in the coastal city of not area. at least 17 people have been injured. is right, the army says intercepted at least one rocket. well, has paula has issued a statement, claiming responsibility in response to the attack and assassination carried out by these riley enemy in the town of alba. they say the islamic resistance slide has launched an arrow attack with a squadron of drones targeting the headquarters of the kalani brigade and the headquarters of the egos unit in occupied ica and accurately hit that targets and
5:10 pm
achieved confirmed casualties. it's a honda so who does dining live for us in amman? phone? so let's go to, i said, begging my jo and in solving lebanon. tell us more about this response from hezbollah and whether you have civilians as they have been for a long time now. but whether or not they are preparing for what could be a worst case scenario if things were to continue escalating but here's the level of they said that they don't want to will be prepared for one . but we have seen this complex slowly escalates. and this latest attack on those, the, on his right, as you said, his but law said that they talked to the good on the brigade and the a goes unit 6 to one into chicago barracks. this north of, i cut her as a retaliation for the assassination, and i, but now his beloved launched drones. now what this shows us. so what to suggest is that his will have the intelligence and the locations of those minute military
5:11 pm
facilities and installations that they are able to hit them. but also this was around 20, coming to us from the lebanese southern border. and it shows that his life able to get past the lives of his rating defense. not in the posts. his brother has fired rockets, they've been intercepted. but the awesome here who believe that sometimes what has a lot tends to do this test, are these radiated defensive, distracted, ok, trivia on if i choose a big correct weak points, that is really it has also tie dyed attacks here in livid on the car. doctor and a pint is broken, a building in the tons of may 5 doing which is roughly 7 or 8 kilometers from the border now. or the authorities say 5 people were killed, the that the reports that the nephew of most of the but through with bean, i'm a, i mean the but the dean was killed in that striking a list of other things a scene yet because without commended the died in 2016 in the tech, in syria, but we're waiting for confirmation on that. but what we do understand is that these different types strikes start taking place that need for me on his beloved side is
5:12 pm
not the main retaliation that his beloved has thomas. for the king of it senior commodified sugar. we believe that is yet to come. and we understand that the general, 2nd 3 of his beloved booty speaking shockey uh, mazda one mark, one week super couldn't golf that come under, but the lebanese farm is got the boat happy you has to be speaking. and now what he has said is that the liberal around is working to ensure any response to the is right here talking on the, on the route sub does not trigger told to avoid the middle east. now that's the real 5th, that when his blog does, because the age of the as promised to do so, he could figure out a way to accomplish not just here in lebanon, but the rest of the region. thank you very much. i said, bagwell forcing from large own, in southern lebanon. the is ready, government has bound out you 0 from reporting inside is around and so home to south joins is from jordan's capital. oman, how much concern is that likely to be on the policy is read the government that has
5:13 pm
the law has this ability to strike strategically important targets inside moving israel as well as this just shows you another failure of these really air defense systems. how they weren't able to detect these drones that were able to infiltrate is really airspace, but also one of the making impact. now we also want to mention that these really military, it has confirmed and is now launching an investigation about an iron don't with missile interceptor, but malfunction and hits highway 4 in northern israel. we're looking at 17 total casualties. and this a top one of which was a fatality which is unclear if it was a result of the drone that was impacted or the iron dome interceptor that fell. so there's a huge worry and concern across these really security and defense establishment on how exactly they're going to deal with a larger scale attack, binding it audience by his beloved and perhaps the food these in yemen. if their
5:14 pm
air space is over whelmed with projectiles. we've seen us throughout the last 10 months. these really defense systems get quite overwhelmed and are not always a 100 percent accurate. but they are 3 fold and it's usually a system that has proved to be iron clad with around a 98 percent success rate. but throughout the last 10 months that has significantly decrease to about 92 to 95 percent. so these really military is trying to replenish those air defense systems. but again, even the military themselves had said that the air defense system is not a 100 percent. okay, thank you very much. honda so who reporting to us from amman and jordan? are they are supposed to? i'm your are in the column is for the hearts newspaper focusing on military and government decides and says that has paula is trying to balance the level of conflicts with israel for the last day, 300 all days. cuz by law it has been operating under 2 contradictory investors,
5:15 pm
um, on the one hand it wants to help come us and to join the fights and they built attention and forces so that israel has ethics disposal from guys to the news boulder. and therefore give it share in what it sees as the joint resistance fight against the israel. but on the other hand, it behooves seem not to go to into is israel input full blair pisca war because then iran it spectrum we lose. it says paula um, obviously, should israel evade levon on our hip? it with its full mikes? cuz the bottle uh will be shifted and the reserves, which iran has been positioning north of various route for the day when it has nuclear weapons, will no longer be there. so it's
5:16 pm
a very delicate game that ms rela has been played. he is called and get the equations. israel hits a certain target, he will try to hit the power targets in israel, israel. he eats a military commander in cuz by law he is trying to find the right person to retaliate against. but a game show up a full scale war and all the developments 12 pilot studies have been killed during his writing rides in the occupied westbank full were killed near to bus late on monday. and now the 8 in around jeanine on choose day is right. the forces of carried out drawn strikes, buildings, roads, and infrastructure have been bulldozed by these riley army residential homes, were damaged or destroyed, obviously, or is needed. abraham is in a village near janine and has more on the raid where we are right now, which is a 20 minute drive from jeanine city in guilford, who is the village? people are trying to understand the story of what happened. exactly. they know that
5:17 pm
these really forces up surrounded this area and as we were walking we so some traces of blood, some a close filled with blood as well. and palestinians because this area is very far away from the downtown, from the center of the village. they've been not allowed to approach and come closer to this location. this is why after hours of the start of the incident, and these really forces surrounding the homes that they managed to get in and try to understand really what's happened. no medical team say that they've seen these really forces take palestinians with them. 5 in total, some injured, some dead. what's here? people do not have answers. the ministry of health says this is received information from these really side the to palestinians were killed here,
5:18 pm
as opposed to the initial announcements that 3 were killed. so the, that the story we have now is too close to me is killed. 3 injured, but all of them have been taken with these really forces with them. again, how the city is with tell you that it's hard to know what happened. did they have a shootout? did they not? did they? it kill them in cold blood. it's hard for palestinians here to know what happened because this is once again another story of these really forces coming in raising palestinian homes, towns. refugee comes and leaving with casualties. have elders, they are live from dell, i'm most old to bring you on the program. 23 rebels make advances in the east and democratic republic of congo, pump to thousands of people to flee towards ro, wanda,
