i love this, open table, uber. but we have a problem. and the idea that senators stood up today and, said you know what you have to be 13 before you have access to social media, and i know some of you are saying, let their parent tumble it. i think it's a step in the right direction. we also talked about disney tonight and governor desantis, what do we, have desantis is messing with the wrong mouth. i, like it he already made rookie mistakes in the war. and he hasn't won any battles. the idea, going back five, years imagine that i said to you a presidential candidate is going to take on disney and sees political advantage, and it doesn't make any sense. quickly, kamala harris, joe biden's age. let's be honest. harris is a decent person but she is a drag on the ticket. i just had that conversation with van jones, i think she's got to a per game or that will end up being the case thank you for. joining us. the news continues here on cnn. hello and welcome to our viewers joining us here in the

united states and all around the world. i am rosemary church. just ahead on cnn newsroom, u.s. house republicans and narrowly pass a bill to raise the country's debt limit, the fight with democrats and the white house is far from over. explicit and dramatic testimony, as the woman accusing donald trump of sexual assault takes the stand. plus prosecutors and now say the classified intel stolen by the 21-year-old in national guardsmen exceeds what's been reported. and the human side of the conflict incident, we will hear from a man whose mother died in his father's arms. after a mortar attack. good to have you with, us well republicans in the u.s. house are claiming a major victory passing a bill to raise the nation's debt limit potentially

avoiding economic catastrophe. but their celebration will be short lived. the measure is dead on arrival in the senate, where democrats object to huge cuts in federal spending. the bill passed by only two. both but republicans say it will strengthen their hands and negotiations with democrats in the white house. >> we just passed a bill. it's not our job to modify it. where the only wants to lift the debt and to make sure this economy is not in jeopardy. >> what the speaker of the house and with the two vote margin what it did today was actually putting the nation at risk. and the cost that they're going to put in place is going to damage the economic growth. >> without an agreement the u.s. government could default on its debt by early june. the downgrade in its credit rating shirt to follow. more now from cnn's chief congressional correspondent, -- >> after months of internal deliberations and around the

clock negotiations, speaker mccarthy achieved the biggest legislative accomplishment of his young speakership, pushing to move the bill on straight party lines to raise the national debt limit by 1.5 trillion dollars and getting that done on republican votes alone. the bill passed 217 to 254 republicans voting for conservative members of the conference. mccarthy lost one more republican that with a bit enough to sink the measure. but, behind the scenes mccarthy is trying to sway concern from the right and trying to put in a whole slew of provisions in the package. republican priorities, ethics to go after the biden agenda as well as across the board spending cuts on domestic discretionary programs. as well as new work requirements for beneficiaries of the medicaid entitlement program. all of which have been supported by most members of the republican congress. but given the narrow majority, mccarthy had very little margin for error. but we didn't convince

everybody in the conference, including congressman tim burchett of tennessee who argued that the bill should have went farther. >> yes, i already know. i just can't get past 32 trillion dollars in debt. people obviously worked hard and they manage their money. they're just doing a terrible job of it. here >> what happens next is anyone's guess. mccarthy is using the passage of this bill to point out that it is only the house that has passed any legislation to bridge the debt ceiling. the democratic led senate has not done, that the white house has been calling on congress to simply raise the debt limit without any conditions, without any spending cuts and to avoid the potential of the first at the fault which could occur as soon as june. asked the position that mccarthy rejects, he says that there needs to be a negotiation, spending cuts attached to it. so which side will blink first? that is the major question, mccarthy said he is not going to blink he says he has passed a bill the senate needs to, act

this in a democratic's says that mccarthy needs to change course. what will, have been major questions as congress and the white house are staring at the process of the first the fault in the nation's history. some in a real fiscal scare, probably the biggest fiscal scare since 2011 when the united states saw the credit rating downgrading amid the standoff over limiting the debt ceiling. raju, cnn, capitol hill. joining me now from new york is cnn global economic analyst, rana foroohar, she is also a global business columnist and associate editor at the financial times. great to have you with us. >> great to be here. >> so, the house of representatives a very narrowly voted to pass a republican bill wednesday that would raise the debt limit in exchange for far reaching spending cuts. and while it has been viewed as a big win for house speaker kevin mccarthy, this bill won't pass in the senate and

president biden continues to refuse to negotiate on this. so what is in that bill that he find so unacceptable? >>, well rosemary you are absolutely right. even though this is, in some, way a victory for republicans, it was unclear whether even they would be able to come together around any kind of agreement. it is not going to do anything to help republicans and democrats get together on raising the debt. and much, part because there is a toxic list of demands from republicans. things like overturning biden's efforts to forgive student debt, for example. and pulling back parts of the inflation reduction act, climate subsidies. these are things that have been really at the cornerstone of what the president believes, and what he feels has worked for the last two years has been. and there is no way democrats are going to let this pass. so, really, we haven't moved the ball forward at all. yet >> so, run if republicans

refuse to lift the debt limit, right up until the deadline around early june, what is that going to mean in terms of perhaps forcing biden to negotiate and to come up with some sort of compromise? >> well it's interesting you can already see a little bit of movement, not in congress but within outside and interestingly kind of an odd mix of fellows with sir to an folsom field obvious are teaming up with clean energy advocates to say, look it is there anything that we can do to make sure that we don't throw the baby out of the bathwater. , and one thing that is being discussed is whether or not there is going to be in agreement to speed up all kinds of energy projects. that will help fossil fuel companies to get things going from there. and it will also help clean energy folks to be assured that the inflation reduction act is not going to get there or not if we can't get to a dead

agreement. >> that is just one of the pieces in play here. i expect that we are going to see a lot more wrangling over the next few weeks. and i expect that this is going to go right up until the deadline. >> and, of, course every year debate over the lifting of the debt limit brings this country to the brink. how do we avoid that annual crisis that this country goes through? and what would the default on the u.s. that look like? what would be the consequences of that if it happened? >> well, you know i think it would really throw the u.s. into recession, no question, i think it would rock global markets. rosemary, the damage that is being done by american politicians, and allowing the country to walk out to this limit every so often and every few years is cumulative. we have never got into the place where we have actually defaulted on government debt and had to face the ramifications of that. but there's been such a lost of

trust in just the ability of the u.s. to govern. i mean there's been a lot of trust in the dollar, in some ways, as the global reserve currency and i think if we were to get out and be on the debt ceiling this time around, i really do think that the implications would be pretty substantial for the world. >> that is a big concern of, course let's hope that we don't get to that point. run of aurora, thank you so much for joining us. >> thanks rosemary. >> the woman who accuses donald trump of sexually assaulting her decades ago in a department store dressing room is expected back on the witness stand in the hours ahead. e. jean carroll is suing the former president for battery and defamation in a civil case. and, on wednesday she began her dramatic testimony describing in chilling details that image. cnn's paula reid is following developments from new york. writer e. jean carroll, taking the stand in the second day of her civil buttery and defamation case against former

president donald trump. >> are you looking forward to testifying today? >> the first question, her attorney asked why, she finally took her case to court. i am here because donald trump raped me, and when i wrote about, it he said it didn't happen. he lied and shattered my reputation and i am here to try to get my life back. carol alleges trump raped her in a department store in the 1990s. >> it was a fight, i want women to know that i did not stand, there i did not, freeze i was not paralyzed. it was over very quickly. it was against my will. 100%. and i ran away. >> she spent hours, wednesday, testifying on the alleged assault which trump denies. she told the jury she didn't picture anything about what was about to happen when the pair were shopping in -- through, tears she said that the open dressing room door they enter played me for years because i just walked into it.

walked in! she told the jury, trump shoved her against the wall and then the assault began. >> i always think of why i walked in there to get myself in that situation, but i am proud to say i did get up. i got my knee up and pushed him back. she is now suing trump for unspecified monetary damages and to get him to retract this -- october 22 social media post, reading in part, i don't know this woman. this woman is not my type. but, in 2019, trump acknowledged this photo from the 19 80s showing the two chatting. >> i have absolutely no idea who she is. there's some picture where we're shaking hands it looks like, at some kind of event. >> trump, who isn't expected to appear at the trial unless sculpted testify posted, wednesday, calling the case a, quote, made-up scam. the judge in this case reacting strongly to trump's public

statement telling his lawyer that it opens up the client to a, quote, potential liability. and our thanks to pilloried, for that report. disturbing new details about the international guardsman accused of stealing classified documents and posting them on social media. prosecutors say that the information -- took for what's exceed that has been reported and releasing him from jail could pose a huge threat to national security. he is dude in court in the coming hours for a hearing on whether he will have to remain behind bars while awaiting trial. he has not yet entered a formal plea. prosecutors say that he viewed hundreds of documents and conducted keyword searches in what appears to be a deliberate effort to disseminate american secrets. he was also told that he has a history of making violent threats and had access to a arsenal of weapons at his massachusetts home. >> well, clashes in and around

the sudanese capital keep undermining the 72-hour cease-fire between sedans army and paramilitary forces. but the head of the army has signaled his wiggling this to extend the truce by another three days. and he's calling for talks in neighboring south sudden. the rapid support forces have not responded to the proposal yet, the current cease-fire is due to expire late thursday, local time and each side has repeatedly accused the other of violating the agreement. the fighting, now in its second, week has already claimed more than 500 lives according to the health ministry. and wounded nearly 4200 people. many said any civilians from old to young are feeling a growing sense of despair. >> i am afraid this war will continue, resulting in the death of more innocent people and the destruction of sudden. i hope this war will end. >> so, let's bring in cnn

senior, editor stephanie bizarre who joins us live from lagos. so, stephanie, what more are you learning about efforts to evacuate more people out of sudden amid this conflict. and, of course, growing humanitarian crisis? >> good morning, rosemary so india is the latest country to evacuate its citizens at some thousands of citizens were evacuated overnight. , but many sudanese and also u.s. citizens were stuck there because the u.s. government has said that the conditions are not conducive to an evacuation of citizens. many are being forced to make, what they say, are life and death choices to try to get to borders. these borders are now filling up with people and the conditions at the borders are now becoming quite dire. in egypt, for example, men under 50 were told that they're being turned back --

being denied access into the country because there has been a prison break in the country and there's just the sense of lawlessness. people are telling us that the egyptians do not know who they are letting. and they don't know who they're letting into the country so men of a certain age have not been allowed into the country. , and against this but drop is a looming how monetary disaster, lack of, food luck of, water no electricity. , so the situation has not changed much. it's still looking, very very desperate, rosemary? >> all, right our thanks to stephanie bizarrely joining us live from lagos. >> we now want to show you one of the faces of the tragedy that is unfolding incident. , and talk about the price that many families are paying after losing their loved. once, and at least how much a doctor who is killed in a mortar strike on her home in khartoum earlier this month her son khalid osmond who is also

in that picture that you're looking at there along with this father joins us now from -- thank you so much for talking with. us at this difficult and tragic time. and our deepest condolences to you and your family for the loss of your mother. >> thank you so much, i appreciate it. >> so, talk to us about what happened to your mother who was also a doctor, as we mentioned, like your father. what were the circumstances surrounding her death? >> my mom was just sitting in her living, at our house in khartoum and they were hearing the gunshots and the loud explosions in the background. and they just -- they kind of got used to these gunshots by now but everything was multiplied twice. everything was louder. everything was closer.

and i remember the last thing that my mom was sending me was through what's up, group shut, she was recording the loud explosions of the gunfire so we can hear it and it was so loud i felt like i was living there. i felt like i was there. i felt like i was with them. and one minute my mom was recording those gun fires and less than half an hour later she wasn't. >> so what happened was a motor it right outside of our house right onto the fence and one of the sharp nehls got in through the windows, shattered the windows and got to my mom. my mom was -- my mom and my brother were in the living room together. they run away to my dad's room. and she run away.

she got, up she run away and then she realized later that she had something in my neck. i think i blood on my neck. and she had so much blood on her neck. she didn't even realize anything. suddenly, she collapsed. my dad tried to perform cpr on her but it was just too late. less than two minutes she was dead already. >> i am so, so sorry for your loss and i know that you have talked previously about what a kind doctor she was. she'd spoken about, sometimes many of the patients couldn't even afford her services as a doctor and they gave her food, various other items to pay for her service to them as a doctor. talk to us about what happens now to your, brother your sister, and of course your father. will they remain incident? or do they plan to get out and

join you there? >> for the past, week i am not able to, sleep i'm not able to, rest i'm not able to breathe properly i feel like something is pressuring through my heart. because i can't grieve properly for my mom and i cannot feel safe for my parents, my dad, my brother or my sister and they were stuck at their house i think for over 50 hours and they were -- because it was not safe to get out. luckily, they were lucky enough to find us in enough time to bury my mom and come back. but they were stuck at the house for more than 50 hours. and then my dad took my brother, and my sister to the mother's side of khartoum where it is a little bit safer.

and he stayed with some relatives over there and i heard. i >> know it is particularly difficult for you because you are watching from afar which makes it all the more hard to know what is going on with your family. just to get your reaction to this conflict and this very shaky cease-fire that appears to be holding in some parts of the country at least. but what do you say to the two military leaders that are battling out for control of the country? >> i guess, i would say that i'm not a political person at all and i am not belonging to any political party. i don't care for any political party what i care is for the innocent people that are dying from this conflict. i don't belong to any of them. i just want them to stop because i feel like the only people that are suffering from

this is the innocent civilianize who are caught up in the crossfire and, sometimes they're not even caught up in the crossfire. sometimes they're targeted. like doctors. some innocent families that are trying to escape the got shot in the middle of the cross fire, and they got shot right in their cars trying to escape. i was lucky enough to have my, parents might, doug my brother and sisters escape this morning to the northern side of the country. but that was a very scary journey for them and i just felt like i could barely breathe again, you know? >> i sense that you speak for most people their incident and, again i am so sorry, i sent -- to you and your family for the loss of your mother. thank you so much. >> thank you so much. thank, you i appreciate it. >> and, still to come, from diplomacy to the terror of the u.s. and south korea announce a new security deal marking a

dinner just a few hours ago with the event and manu highlighting the deep ties between the two countries. , rather the u.s. agreed to deploy a nuclear armed some rain to south korea. cnn's kristie lu stout joins me now from hong kong. good to see you christy. so talk to us, the south korean president will soon be addressing the u.s. congress. how will he likely frame that alliance? >> yes, that's what it's happening 11 am, eastern time, president yoon will address the u.s. congress to mark 70 years of the u.s. south korea alliance. and his, address will come shortly after this key new deal in the deterring of north korea. the u.s. has pledged to give south korea more insight into the new color planning. as well as a new u.s. commitment to deploy nuclear armed sunbury nse in south korea for the first time since the early 80s. now, in return, south korea has agreed not to pursue its own nuclear arsenal. here is the south korean

president. >> president biden has reaffirmed his arm club commitment to extend the deterrents towards the republic of korea. our two countries have agreed to immediate bilateral presidential consultation in the event of north korea's nuclear attack, and a promise to responsibly, overwhelmingly and decisively using the full force of the alliance, including the united states nuclear weapon. >> but, the key question is, this will the deal actually deter north korea? >> last, year north korea fired a record number of rockets and missiles and continued to fire more including recently the new solid feel icbm and biden repeated the u.s. offered to north korea tough talks about the weapons program but he also offered a very stark warning to north korea then we're rip -- >> and, kristie, there was an unexpected moment at the state dinner when the south korean president saying for everyone. how is that received? >> yes, look, it was quite the evening of entertainment at the white house state dinner on wednesday. you had the broadway stars, are on the floor, they were hitting

the ukrainian and chinese presidents have spoken for the first time since russia's invasion of ukraine.

as beijing aims to portray itself as an objective and fair peacemaker, despite its close ties to moscow. volodymyr zelenskyy and she jinping spoke for an hour by phone on wednesday. president-elect ski said he made it clear that ukraine would not give up territory to russia to end the fighting. so let's bring in cnn's beijing bureau chief steven jiang. steven, how significant is this call between the leaders of china and ukraine? and what might come of this? >> yes, rosemary, in a significance symbolically, there has been rumors that this would take place especially when he came back from moscow and visited with putin last month. especially after the recent flurry of diplomatic slurs from european leaders like macron and von der leyen. and then of course you juxtapose that with china's growing desire to be seen as a global peacemaker after the deal they brokered between the saudis and iranians.

so it was in this broader context that we finally saw this highly anticipated called take place. and some observers see this as a reward from beijing to europe's willingness to engage with china on this issue. but let's not forget just what happened in the past few days, the chinese ambassador to france caused an uproar across europe by questioning the the galaxy of the sovereign state of that of course has caused a lot of damage even though china has since distance itself from the remarks. the need for damage control, according to some observers finally tip the scales in favor of this rather modest gesture in the form of the skull. now, she jinping of course reiterated a lot of china's long-standing talking point. but he did pledge to send a envoy to ukraine and other regional countries to discuss, quote unquote, a political settlement. but, even the state media here has acknowledged it's very unlikely anything will change in the short term given the

custom between ukraine, russia and their positions and also a lot of people pointed out it's gonna take a lot more than a phone call to convince china's criticism and skeptics in europe that it's serious to play an unbiased role and of course as you know all of this has taken place when europe is increasingly a battleground in the strategic rivalry between the. united states and china, rosemary? >> steven jiang, joining us live from beijing. many thanks. and, we'll be right back. to finally lose 80 pounds and keep it off with golo is amazing. i've been maintaining. the weight is gone anit's never coming back. with golo, i've not only kept off the weit but i'm happier, i'm healthie and i have new lease on life.
