♪ impeachment threat. some house republicans say an inquiry into the biden family business dealings is overdo. now the biden campaign is pushing back. we'll take you live to the white house in a few moments where a news briefing should start soon. >> inflation acceleration. it ticks up for a second straight month. bu but dig into the numbers and there is reason for hope. what it means for the fed's upcoming interest rate decision. >> the nightmare is over and an escaped killer is in cuffs. the two-week man hunt ends with a swarm of law enforcement surrounding danelo cavalcante. how did he evade hundreds of officers for so long? we're following these major developing stories and many more all coming in right here to cnn news central.

so we're just moments away from the first white house briefing since kevin mccarthy announced an impeachment inquiry into president biden. the move comes at a crucial moment in the political calendar. the intense polarization in washington is about to get supercharged. congress has less than three weeks to avert a government shutdown. but the republicans biden probe is further inflamed intentions. the white house is fighting back and the biden campaign is fund-raising off the move. as republicans are divided. some think this is a distraction while others believe the house speaker has not gone far enough. mccarthy held a meeting with the republican caucus this morning trying to get everyone on the same page. let's get you all angles of the story starting at the white house and the on capitol hill. what should we expect from this white house briefing? >> we know that the white house

briefing, the press secretary, will be joined by the national security spokesman admiral john kirby and the chief economist. they're expected to talk about the meeting taking place between vladimir putin and kim jong-un and bernstein is expected to talk about perhaps inflation numbers which have been seen rising for two months in a row after softening over the summer. the fact that the white house is talking about inflation and geopolitics at a time in this impeachment inquiry is reaching a fever pitch, tells you how much they don't want to talk about that, even as the white house has been actively shifting from defensive mode, which it's been in for the better part of two years, preparing battening down the hatches, as republicans ramped up their oversight and investigations, and are now looking to shift into offense mode with the white house's spokesman on investigations

calling this inquiry illegitimate. here's what he said. >> i think republicans over the last year, republicans in congress, have proven that these sorts of poking around inquiries are nothing but a wild goose chase that are illegitimate. i don't want to speculate on what the house republicans may or may not ask for. they won't vote for it and they can't say what they're impeaching him for. >> the messaging that is being distilled right now is that the inquiry into the president and the business dealings of his son is illegitimate. the white house believes that the inquiry into former president donald trump and the legal battles that she's facing are legitimate. that argument has been distilled in the biden campaign's latest fund-raising pitch. we'll see how much it can bring in and what happens in the briefing set to begin momentarily. >> we know you'll keep an eye on that. what do we know about the meeting that kevin mccarthy is having with republicans today and about the game plan for them moving forward?

>> yes, they are starting to plot out their next steps in this impeachment inquiry. it was discussed today in that conference meeting and afterwards, james comer, the head of the house oversight committee, announced that they're going to hold a hearing this month to lay out where their investigation stands into the biden family. but at the same time, they have not yet proven the allegations that biden directly profited off his son's business deals or he made business decisions because of them. there is a messaging effort under way right now. comber and jim jordan are briefing senate republicans during their lunch today. they're going to brief house republicans tomorrow. and even though there is a lot of support for kevin mccarthy's move here within the house gop, there's still some skepticism in the ranks. let's take a listen. >> certainly didn't help democrats. i mean, you know, i haven't seen anybody do too well after an impeachment process. didn't do well for us in '98

with president clinton. i don't see it as good politics. i do think there's enough stuff here that it deserves to be looked at. >> i think we need to be balanced in this approach. i don't think that impeachment ought to be used as a political tool or a weapon. i think we need to be on a quest for facts. >> i think it's long overdo. the people in my district have had enough. i think we should have impeached him a long time. >> the last comment you heard there was from tony gonzalez who represents a swing district. that support is notable there. as far as a time line, there is a general sense in the gop that they do not want this dragging into an election year and that's why mccarthy told his members today that he wants to move as quickly as possible. >> yeah, the timing also important, melanie, because the backdrop of all of this is the spending fight, government funding ends on september 30th. we'll keep an eye on that. thank you so much.

jim? let's take a closer look at speaker mccarthy allegations of president biden and the facts. here to walk us through with the facts, let's begin with claim number one from mccarthy. have a listen. >> we know that bank records show that nearly $20 million in payments were directed to the biden family members and associates through various shell companies. >> $20 million, various shell companies. what are the facts. >> i think it's important to take a closer look at the specific language that speaker mccarthy is using here. he said biden family members and associates. republicans, like everyone else in the world, have not presented any evidence and not found any evidence that joe biden himself got any of this money. and we can disentangle this language further. he didn't say 20 million to biden family members. he said 20 million to biden

family members and associate. a "washington post" analysis found that the majority of that money went to these associates. not even hunter biden, but people outside the family. two steps removed if not more from the president whonchts are those associates. >> they're various people. hunter biden business partners, people who don't have much of a public reputation. but not only not the president, but some of it not to his son. >> let's go to claim number two from mccarthy about an fbi informant. >> even a trusted fbi informant has alleged a bribe to the biden family. >> trusted fbi informant alleged a bribe. what are the facts. >> it leaves out critical context. it is true, jim, that in 2020, an informant whom the fbi had deemed credible did allege that in 2016, a ukrainian businessman had made the claim that he had

given $25 million payments to the biden. three years later, nobody had presented any proof that the bribe actually occurred is true. the fbi said the informant couldn't offer an opinion about the veracity of the claim. devon archer testified that he was not aware of any such payment. he characterized the claim as a typical example of a ukrainian business people touting. >> mccarthy claims that biden participated in dinners with his son's business partners. >> eyewitnesses have testified that the president joined on multiple phone calls and had multiple interactions, dinners resulted in cars and millions of dollars into his son's and his

son's business partners. >> on the calls, what did joe biden on these calls? >> yeah, that's the critical context that speaker mccarthy left out. devon archer testified that about 20 times over a number of years, joe biden was put on speakerphone in calls with hunter biden, but archer also testified that joe biden's contributions were superficial. that he'd asked his son things like what's the weather where you're like, how is the fishing, how are you doing. archer testified he never heard joe biden discuss business and so this is the pattern. mccarthy is making these claims without demonstrating any evidence that joe biden did anything in office to help his son's business, that joe biden personally profited from his son's business, that joe biden took steps to get his son the money. hunter biden did receive a wire transfer from a foreign businessman that he used to buy a fancy car. did receive millions of other dollars. but, again, that's hunter biden.

>> these claims have been out here for some time with both the republican party, lawmakers, and the fbi, justice department with time. in some cases, years time to investigate, to find evidence they have not presented any such evidence? >> they have not. and, you know, they've launched this impeachment inquiry. they've had subpoena power for awhile now. of course, the investigation is ongoing. but none of this evidence has appeared to date. >> that's why we do the facts. thanks so much. it's the stubborn thorn in the side of the american economy. the key measure of inflation, the consumer price index coming in rising 3.7% august. that is slightly higher than the 3.6% that economists had been expecting and it is just over half a percent increase from july which is the biggest monthly rise of the year. rising energy prices, fueling

most of the jump here. g gasoline surging 10.5%. it sounds small but it makes up a third of the cpi weighting here. there was one bright shot and that is used cars and truck prices which i'm sure you noticed have been getting a little out of control. that dropped 1.2%. markets not really too phased by it all. let's discuss this with a professor of economics and public policy at the university of michigan. justin, these latest numbers, they show inflation pressures are subsiding, but you have this high housing and the gas prices, they're still making it feel pretty tough. is this why president biden's economic message is not resonating with the public as much as he would hope that it would. >> well, it's a funny thing. today's inflations numbers -- in fact, a lot of good news hiding under a cloak of bad news.

here's the bad news, the bad news is the prices had been rising quickly for the past couple of years. but when you get to turning points in the economy, it's important to be looking at the fresh estate, what's happening in the recent months. when you say inflation rose at 3.7% over the past year, that tells us a lot about what was happening six months ago, nine months ago, 12 months ago. let's focus on the past three months. i remember three months ago, we talked about it. we got a good, low number. last month, we got another good low number and a good low number today and so if you put those three numbers together, there's a lot of cause for optimism. in fact, core cpi over the past three months has risen an annual rate of 2.5% which is remarkably lower than the rates we had been seeing earlier. >> i think people are just a little fatigued and that's coming through here. we mentioned housing here. i think what a lot of people are wondering, they're saying, okay,

these mortgage rates, they're really high right now. are they going to go down in a couple of years? or is maybe what they thought was their starter home, should they be thinking about that as their longer term home, their forever home, maybe, what do you think? >> there's two really important things to think -- or three important things to think about with housing. one, what can you afford depends a lot on your wages. we've seen wage growth start to outstrip inflation over the past couple of months. if that kicks up, that's going to help people. two, there's how much interest do you have to pay your banks. interest rates right now really are dramatically higher than we've seen in quite a long time. a lot of that has to do with the fed and hopefully once we get inflation under control the fed can take its foot off that break and let interest rates fall a little bit more. but the third thing that matters is how much does the house itself cost. house prices rose dramatically

in the postpandemic period. house prices have come down. house price growth has come down quite a bit and it's flat lining and it's one of the important factors that's going to continue to mute or dampen down cost of living pressures over the next year. >> that is good news. what are you looking for at the fed's meeting next week? >> i think they've signaled that unless we got really bad news today, we're going to take september as a time to have a look, have a think and do nothing. we can argue about whether today's data was good news or merely expected. but it's certainly not going to move them to raise rates further. the much bigger question is whether they're going to raise rates in december, perhaps in november and how long they're going to leave them there. but for the time being, i think no further rate rise coming in the short run. >> that is music to our ears, professor. thank you so much for being with us today. >> pleasure.

killer's heat signal just around 1:00 a.m. when officers had him surrounded, the 34-year-old convict resisted arrest, he tried to crawl away, but a police k-9 subdued him. the da said that one of the first to get the news of his capture was the family of the ex-girlfriend cavalcante murdered in 2021 which led him to receiving a life sentence without parole. >> they were shrieking with joy and happiness. they have lived their own personal nightmare. i can't underscore the trauma that this family sustained. these kids watched their mother be murdered and upon this release of the defendant from -- or the escape from the prison, they've been barricaded inside their homes, not feeling safe anywhere. so from them, this is a tremendous relief. >> let's take you to chester county now with cnn's danny freeman who has been following the action for the last 14 days.

this all started with an alarm that went off at someone's home. >> that's right, boris. a burglary alarm set off a series of events that led to his capture this morning. we moved a little bit down the road from where we were earlier at the northern -- the northeastern edge of the police perimeter that had been in place for 24 hours. now we're in the spot along pottstown pike where cavalcante was captured just in this wooded area behind me. that's where his 14-day escape from prison finally came to an end. so let me talk about that time line, though, boris and get to that burglary which i said kicked off the end of this manhunt. so according to lieutenant colonel george bivens, this all started last night just a little after midnight. that's when a burglar alarm went off and it brought a lot of

resources to the area. pennsylvania state police said tactical teams really swarmed this area of chester county to try to find cavalcante. then they weren't able to find him, but they got some help from above. an aerial team at around 1:00 a.m. picked up heat signals. it was a dea fixed wing airplane that was flying over. they picked up heat signals that they believe was cavalcante. the teams began to come in once again, but then this large storm hit. he said there was lightning in the area. it forced all of those assets to go back and land for safety. but then, according to pennsylvania state police, this team made a decision to stay in the area. they found cavalcante in the woods behind us. and take a listen to what bivens said happened next. >> he began to crawl through thick underbrush, taking his rifle with him as we went. one of the customs and border

control teams had a dog with them. they released the dog. some of our psp sert members were there. the k-9 subdued and team members moved in. >> reporter: he said the element of surprise led to cavalcante's capture. now cavalcante is in pennsylvania state police custody. he's getting interviewed and get a medical examination and he'll be set to a state constructional institution. boris? >> a sigh of relief for members of the community and for the families of victims whose lives they took. thanks so much. jim? >> well, today the north korean dictator kim jong-un is pledging his support for vladimir putin's war in ukraine. the two very isolated leaders met face to face in russia overnight. as u.s. officials have warned about a official arms deal ahead to help russia in ukraine.

putin welcomed kim at a space rocket launch site. he signaled that russia would help north korea develop its own space and satellite program. moscow needs fresh supplies of ammunitions and shells after more than 18 months of its war in ukraine and with putin by his side, kim vowed to stand by russia. >> translator: russia is engaged in a fight for justice to defend the right and security interest against the forces. we've been expressing the full and unconditional support to all measures that you have taken in response and that in the front line of imperialism and independence i will always be standing with russia. i'm using this opportunity to make it clear. >> and while kim jong-un is in russia, north korea launched two short-range ballistic missiles off the eastern coast of the

korean peninsula hours before the summit. paula hancocks joins us now. how is south korea viewing this emerging friendship between russia and north korea? of course, their eyes often turn to the threat north. do they view this as a growing threat to themselves? >> well, jim, they're certainly watching everything that's happening with great concern. there were calls before kim jong-un met with vladimir putin for him not to meet with him, for him not to do an arms deal. but this has been a very public display of solidarity between two very isolated leaders that are heading up two heavily sanctioned countries. what we saw today was a pledge from kim jong-un that he had the -- that he fully supported vladimir putin in everything he was doing and in return, we saw the military focus, we saw the fact they were at that space center and putin said that he

would help kim in his space endeavors. one of the russian reporters who was there said that he asked a lot of very detailed questions. clearly he will get something out of this. now interestingly, he also had some very thinly veiled warnings for the united states and allies. he also said that he fully support russia's war in ukraine. >> translator: we're certain that the russian people and its military will emerge victorious in the fight to punish the evil forces that ambitiously pursue hegemony and expansion. >> reporter: so kim jong-un saying he does show full and unconditional support for putin, something which will not please washington, seoul or tokyo, jim? >> and the importance, the space

launch center, the rockets make pretty good icbms as well. joining us right now, matthew chance from moscow. matthew, i wonder, vladimir putin described talks with kim today as highly productive. have russian officials explained why russia needs north korea's help right now in this war? russia's enormous military here now as they meet. >> no, i mean, of course not, jim as you well know. they haven't explained why -- that arms deal. they haven't even really spelled out what progress was made behind closed doors. there's been no deals signed. there wasn't a press conference at the end of the meeting today. and so if there was a deal done behind closed doors, it's probably going to stay that way. there's a whole shroud of

secrecy that's been cast all over this whole visit. we don't even know how long kim jong-un is going to stay in the country for. we know he's got a few more engagements in the far east of russia. but he's going everywhere by train. we don't know how long it takes him to get to various places and then make his way back out of the country. but, you know, make no mistake. north korea definitely wants that rocket technology. he wants satellite technology. it's tried repeatedly to launch spy satellites and failed. russia could help with that. and russia genuinely needs munitions, ammunition and weapons for the battlefield in ukraine where its stocks have been depleted and north korea has vast quantities of soviet era weaponry. the experts have been saying in the press here, could deliver to russia in a few days if a deal was done. >> understood. lots for both leaders to explain, but a lot that both can get out of this.

an urgent call going out to the international community today help libya deal with its humanitarian crisis. that's a crisis that is now worsening tremendously after catastrophic flooding ruptured two dams. there are more than 6,000 people who are presumed dead at this point in time with another 10,000 still missing. the eastern city has been hit with the worst of this. this has images before and after the flash flooding. entire neighborhoods wiped out. emergency teams are sifting through debris. they're looking for survivors. this is really tough work. officials say that morgues are overwhelmed and some areas are resorting to mass burials.

libya's government is divided between factions between the east and the west. that is going to complicate the aid and the response here. >> yes, it is. in addition to the fact that basically sense 2011, first with the overthrow of gaddafi and the civil war, the civil services have been largely ignored. and, therefore, this is the consequence. this disaster happens and the authorities in the eastern part of the country simply aren't equipped to deal with this disaster. we're hearing and seeing accounts of bodies strewn all over the city covered with blankets. but it's hot still in that part of the country. and doctors are concerned about the outbreak of disease as a result of all these dead bodies.

hundreds, it looks like, thousands of bodies in the street. now, it's also hard to get assistance to the town because many of the bridges and roads have been washed away. and because of the political divisions, algeria has shipped supplies more than 1,000 kilometers away. there's an appeal by the authorities there for the world to help, but the response has been fairly meager. the united states announcing its donating a million dollars in assistance. britain, a million pounds, but the depth of need there is much, much greater than that. brianna? >> these are awful pictures to see what folks there are going through. ben, thank you so much for that report. if you need more information about how you can help, you see

several miles around the district. finally this from a village. it's a prime example of 12th century architecture. the mosque boasting brickwork, archways, carved motifs. it was severely damaged. it's walls and towers now lying in ruins. again, of course the biggest cost, boris, is lives, but so much history went up in dust. >> yeah. still ahead, putting their heads together on artificial intelligence. some of the most influential people in tech joining lawmakers for an unprecedented meeting on the perils and promise of a.i. could congress soon try to regulate that fast-moving industry. stay with us. we're back in just moments.

a high stakes meeting on capitol hill today on the tremendous power and potential peril of artificial intelligence. a bipartisan group of senators is meeting with tech industry titans, including ceos from microsoft, meta, google, x, and the company behind chatgpt. they're calling it a conversation never before seen in congress. but the forum has its critics. josh hawley calls it a giant cocktail party and didick

blumanthal says it's not productive. >> it's not new bills, it's new laws. >> we heard from the owner of the app formally known as twitter, here's elon musk right after the hearing. >> this was a very civilized discussion among some of the smartest people in the world. so i thought it was -- senator schumer did a great -- along with the support of the rest of the senate and i think we'll -- i think something good will come of this. >> joining us now, cnn media analyst and senior media reporter for axios sarah fisher. what more are you learning about this conversation between tech ceos and senators. >> i've been texting folks both on the congress side and on the tech side and there seems to be a mutual agreement that this was optimistic, that this was quasi

productive. there has been some naysayers like senator richard blumenthal who said this is a closed-door hearing, what's the point? but the point here is there's now consensus, a real sense of urgency needs to happen in order to get government to regulate a.i. before we did not have a set of major tech ceos all sitting around nodding their heads saying this is something that needs to get done. now we have that consensus. and so i think most folks thought this meeting was productive, yet we still don't have any sort of real legislation that's pending at the moment. >> notably, we didn't see something like this before the explosion of social media and we've seen myriad issues created by those platforms. so this seems like a productive step. i'm wondering, what specific issues were of concern? >> yeah, there's a lot. one is how do you go about regulating a. i.? do you create a separate agency,

two agencies that are going to oversee it, or do we want to keep the systems closed? these are the types of things that lawmakers and committees like senator richard blumenthal and his partner on the other side are debating right now. to your point about this happening in an era which didn't happen in social media, two thoughts there, one, a lot of these folks now have experience on capitol hill. they're much more willing to come and talk to members in the senate because they've done it before. two, i think they've learned their lesson. they did not have a strong hand in shaping regulation because they weren't actively participating in it from the start. they ran in fear. now these big tech firms have huge offices, big numbers of lobbyists on the ground. they're less afraid to go in and get their hands dirty and work to shape some of the legislation. >> yeah, and notably, some of them have had tenuous interactions with politicians before. it's kind of refreshing to see them have, you know, productive

dialogue. i am wondering, though, some of them are obviously very invested in the future of a.i. critics argue there could be a conflict of interest as to what kind of regulations they would want to put in place. was that brought up at all? do you know? >> a little bit. this reminds me a lot of the airplane debate. one of the big concerns was that the airplane lobbies were influencing the faa because the faa didn't have the capacity and quite frankly the experience and expertise. you're seeing a similar thing happen with big tech where congress is leaning on the firms that they seek to regulate to inform them and educate them and help them shape rules about the firms. that's a big problem and a big concern. in terms of what to expect and what each side wants, today's meeting was so high level. they didn't get into the nitty-gritty. they talked about a.i. being good for solving the hunger crisis, cancer, they didn't talk about specifics of how they're

going to actually create legislation. >> really something to keep an eye on. it is the new frontier, artificial intelligence. sara fisher, thanks so much for the time. appreciate it. >> thank you. 700 hours, that is how much floor time it would take the senate to process the remaining military promotions which one u.s. senator has stopped in their tracks. we're going to have details just ahead. happening right now, the escaped murderer who was caught finally earlier this morning after a two-week man hunt appears to be on the move with law enforcement. we're following the latest. stay with "cnn news central." at morgan stanley, old school hard work meets bold, new thinking, ♪

nearly 700 hours, a new memo says that's how long it would take for the senate to individually process and vote on hundreds of military promotions that are outstanding right now. those are promotions that are being blocked by republican senator tommy tuberville of alabama. he's placed this blanket hole on nominations as he's protesting the pentagon's reproductive health travel policies. the pending promotions of military officers continuing to pile up. the number now climbing to over 300. we have natasha bertrand with us on this story. natasha, tell us what you're

learning about this memo. >> this is a memo written by the congressional research service in direct request by senator jack reed who is the chairman of the senate armed services committee and he's been tasked to come up with an estimate of how long it would take to confirm each one of these nominees individually instead of doing what the senate has routinely done which is taken them up in a big group and approve them by unanimous consent just because there's so many nominations of the right now tommy tuberville is blocking that saying he'll reject the nannious consent process. he said iffy want to confirm the nominees you can do it one by one but the congressional research service did a big study saying doing that would take almost 700 hours. here's what they said. this total represents approximately 30 days and 17 hours to process all 273 military nominations assuming

the senate worked 24 hours a day without break or interruption by other business. alternatively based on the above assumptions, if the senate exclusively processed these nominations during eight-hour session days it would take approximately 89 days to confirm all 273 nominees. this memo was written back in late august, and the number of nominees who have been blocked at this point have now been over 300 so it will take even longer for the senate to take up each individual nominee and senate democrats have said at this point that that it's not going to happen, that this would take all of their time and they are not going to take up the most senior military officers and that would send the wrong message to the rank and file and it's really at a standstill. >> this is a mess, and it's becoming messier. nat sharks thanks for the latest on that in your reporting. jim? >> a dangerous alliance. leaders of north korea and russia edging closer to an arms deal that could have serious consequences for the war in ukraine.
