more all coming in right here. to cnn news central democrats and republicans are back on the hill today and president biden has a clear message for anyone wavering on his campaign, listen i am not going anywhere. >> i wouldn't be running if i didn't. absolutely believe that i am the best can make a beat down someone 2024, we had a democratic nominating process for the voters spoke clearly i want 49 million votes, which cetera. so i just want i'm not only believed that from the beginning, but i wanted to reassert and demonstrate that is true, and i'm going to be doing that all through this weekend from here on now. that wasn't clear. the president also fired off a letter to house democrats saying the same

thing. cnn senior white house correspondent mj lee is following this story for us. mj walk us through what the president is doing to galvanize support from his conference well, boris, he is clearly trying to flood the zone right now, which i have to say is pretty different from what we saw initially after that disastrous debate where he wasn't seen very much, we didn't hear very much from him in the immediate days after the debate in the last 24 hours, if you take a look a key has called into msnbc. >> he is supposed to be calling into a donors call that the campaign is having. and he wrote this letter that you mentioned two democratic lawmakers. and the objective here overall appears to be two project defiance and confidence and send the message loud and clear. that i am not going anywhere this is a little more sound from when he called into morning joe earlier this morning, and how the president specifically defended the questions about his health. take a listen i think it is

significant significant, ron and that's how i'd measurement you measure me what i've done in my the way in terms of my neurological capacity i had a physical neurological physical as well in february is released or any all my records all all them. and i have a neurological test every single day. try sitting behind his desk and make any decisions. you know, both of you know, it. they know it i'm not bad at what i do and the timing of that letter that the president wrote two democratic lawmakers is obviously not a coincidence. a lot of democrats seeing this week as an absolutely crucial week where we're going to essentially learn whether there is going to be a full revolt from democratic lawmakers, of course so far we've seen in a number of democratic lawmaker starting to say publicly that they question the president's decision to continue running for reelection. again, the

coming days will determine whether the dam is going to fully break and the president is clearly trying to stay ahead of that. and an interesting part of the strategy has been to say, the voters have already but he's spoken, this is a part of what the president wrote in that letter. he said, the voters and the voters alone decide the nominee of the democratic party how can we stand for democracy in our nation if we ignore it in our own party, i cannot do that, and i will not do that. is what he wrote now, this donors call that the campaign chair jen o'malley he, dylan, it's going to be holding this afternoon. the president is going to be calling into that, which obviously is an unusual move. this is just one more example of the president deciding that he needs to get personally involved to speak to all of his supporters, and to reassure them that he is in this until the end. >> i'm, jay, this is what the president is saying publicly but you have new reporting about the picture inside the white house. and it's a pretty grim one.

>> yeah, i think it's worth reminding everyone what the country saw on june 27th, the president's really stunningly halting debate performance over the course of 90 plus minutes that came as a real shock to even folks inside the white house, whether it is more junior aids or even more senior officials who have worked didn't government for awhile and have known the president for a long time the mood inside the building is one of real unease according to sources i've spoken to, and that shouldn't be surprising. they are still processing what it is they saw on june 27 and we know that senior officials in the white house have gone to real lengths to try to offer for any kind of reassurance that they can having conversations and meetings with their direct reports and trying to basically tell them, look, this was hard, but keep your heads down and continue doing the work of the biden administration. we know that there have been a lot of group text chains going on discussing every little headline and gossip. and just one example from this it's

weekend, there was a new york times article that cited anonymously a senior white house official that said, they believed the president should step aside. there's been a lot of discussion about that to try to determine who the identity of that person is. so that just gives you a little window into, again, the sense of real uneven, the nervousness that is going on inside the white house right now. and obviously the disparity between what's being said publicly by the white house and the campaign, and the conversations happening behind closed doors. >> mj lee, thanks so much for the reporting. so that's the perspective from the white house. let's get the view from capitol hill with cnn congressional correspondent lauren foxe's. therefore, it's live lauren, we're learning that several top democrats privately on a call this weekend said that biden should step aside, and many of those lawmakers are also coming up publicly now to yeah. >> i mean, at this point, there are now five democrats who are voicing concerns that biden is

not the nominee, who can potentially be donald trump in november. in fact, we are waiting to see whether or not those numbers actually grow in the hours and days ahead. this is a critical week for joe biden. this is a critical week for democrats on capitol hill to decide whether or not there going to stick with the president or whether or not they're going to try to urge him to step aside now they ultimately don't have power only joe biden can make that decision, but you can imagine that if the dam starts to break here, it puts additional pressure on biden, additional pressure on the white house to potentially make another decision about the president's future in this race, there's a couple of key data points that we're going to be watching for in the hours and days ahead first, the senate and house come back to session tonight. we expect that we'll be able to talk to members. then we also will see house democrats meeting being in a caucus wide gathering over at the democratic congressional committee headquarters tomorrow morning. that is part of a

normally scheduled democratic caucus meeting. but as you can expect, this is the first time the entire democratic caucus going to meet after this debate performance, just ten days ago, we also expect that senate democrats are going to have a conversation during their lunch tomorrow. now, i'm standing right now outside of mark warner's office. he of course, is someone we're keeping close tabs on as cnn reported last week, he was potentially looking to have a meeting with other democrats to try to talk about the president's path ahead that meeting has been scrapped. but i would just point out that every single democratic voice matters right now and you can especially note the fact that many democrats don't want to get out ahead of their colleagues, that they're going to say that the president shouldn't be in the race. many of them want to do it with a united front four as lauren lauren fox live force on capitol hill. >> thank you so much. jessica let's talk more about this with democratic congresswoman have florida debbie wasserman schultz, she's also a former chair of the democratic national committee congressman. and thanks so much for being here with us on this monday.

let's just start first with where you are on all of it. do you support president biden's bid for reelection? should he be your party's nominee i do support joe biden nomination as president united states and believed that he should remain the president of the united states. >> the focus jessica, should be that next week. in their carousel of crazy the publican party is going to nominate a convicted felon who is an adjudicated rapist who, if given another term, has pledged to prosecute people pull in military tribunals, has pledged to upend our democracy, has pledged mass deportations of immigrants who are already here the extremism coming at us, like a firehose, should make it very clear that what we need to be focused on is organized singh and rallying around our president, who has been the most successful presidents and modern times passing

legislation and signing it into law. that is historic climate change, reducing in my district. i have a disproportionate percentage of senior citizens in my state. the most the highest percentage nationwide and they care about making sure we have a president who will fight to protect social security and medicare, not dismantle it like donald trump and the republican party would, that they are going to continue to have a president who will lower prescription drug costs $35 i'll or monthly insulin capping prescription drugs at $2,000. that is a, b, f, d for my constituents. and that's why i know that my democrats in my district want to make sure that joe biden continues in office and remains our nominee and congresswoman. >> i hear you talking about donald trump and trying to put the focus back on him. he's been very quiet over the last several days and his not as just let this play out for amongst the democratic party. i hear you focusing on what the accomplishment and she went to highlight from this president. and yet that's not the story

that's out there right now. so are you frustrated? how damaging do you think this is particularly? as we get closer to november i'm frustrated that the media is literally dissecting every word that comes out of joe biden's mouth and does ignoring the fact that the republicans are about to nominate again, a convicted felon who is an adjudicated rapist who's still denies that he lost the 2020 election. >> who is committing to upend, every single accomplishment that joe biden has helped make sure we can recover after covid and the 15 million jobs that were created i am pushing to make sure that we can focus on what the danger lurking down the road is. is that if we don't make sure that we rally well, you in focus on donald trump and the extremist good versus evil existential threat that he represents. to our

democracy. then you're going to end up back there again. and that's the nightmare scenario my constituents want to avoid. >> congresswoman, but it's your own colleagues who are doing this. they are saying public technically yours. >> they are respectfully. we have 213 members of our caucus. you can get five members to say just about anything. i have been on many texts chains, lots of phone calls over the last few days. and the majority of my colleagues that i've spoken with, not only have said they think that we should focus on meeting donald trump and sticking with joe biden but they're also saying that that's what their constituents believe. so i think we really have to make sure that we are separating the sort of upper crust of donors and press and you know, the more elite as i've said before, and what the rank and file average voter in each congressional district care that's about we also need to make sure that we're focusing on taking the house back because we're doing

important things in congress here in on the house side, like making sure that we can pass a bill to protect refrigerator refrigerators, and dishwashers as opposed to making sure that we can really hone in on helping people have affordable roofs over their head or continuing to address climate change ange in my home state, jessica glad what global warming is a right-now thing. we have sunny day flooding, we have people at risk of not being able to live in their homes and we're here in congress and the republicans are actually taking up the whole week on dishwashers and washing machines that's why we have to make sure joe biden it remains are president and we take the house back and hold the senate. >> okay, so what do you say then to your colleagues who are going to come together there, you all are back in session for the first time after that debate you're grenades talk with your leader hakeem jeffries tomorrow. what do you say to them to keep them all united because frankly, are reporting indicates there

isn't unity and i hear you that publicly it's only, it's a handful, but behind closed doors, people are saying a lot of things. congresswoman you know, i was on a leadership call. i'm a member of the house leadership team on the democratic side. in a few days ago. and yes. is there anxi of course, there's nx, there's an extent every election, this is going to be a close, less close election, no matter what what happens. so it was gonna be a close election before the debate. it's gonna be, it's still a close election and it will likely be a close election that will come down to the wire. just like the last one did. and we have to make sure that we not waste time on parsing the president's words. i see him out there every day pounding the pavement, crisscrossing the country. he's going to lead a name it owes summit this week in washington, he is the leader of the free world and has made sure that we can protect democracy proceed around the world and we need him to remain president of the united states and get reelected so that we can prevent the complete

upending of democracy, which donald trump and his project 2020 five cronies have committed to doing this is existential for the united states, and we don't have time to be hand-wringing and and got churning over whether or not joe biden had one bad day or if he has five bad days, i'm confident in his administration. i'm confident in him and what i'm also confident is we have to get ourselves organized and back to getting busy focusing on voter turnout, making sure that in my home state, we signed people backup for vote-by-mail and that we ensure that we draw the contrast between donald trump's extremely msm, who ripped extremely precious rights away from women and his bragging about it. and joe biden, who has thought and continues to fight two add rights to to our american citizens and customer very quickly because we're out of time. but do you think joe biden's the only one that can beat donald trump i think. >> oh, biden will beat donald

trump. he is beaten donald trump before and and donald trump is an existential threat that the antigen to whom the antidote is joe biden congresswoman debbie wasserman schultz. thanks so much for your time. in this afternoon. we appreciate it thank you coming up. beryl battles, texas more than 2 million people are without power as the storm moves inland. and we're going to find hello, its path. plus boeing takes another blow, the planemaker pleading guilty to defrauding us for its role in two fatal 737 max crashes. but this deal he'll doesn't go nearly as far as victims families had been pushing for will have the latest on that. vacation with a volcano tourists in italy just to wrap this natural phenomenon, yeah. we set it say with cnn, we'll be right back i love milwaukee. >> cnn is live from milwaukee as republican tonight behind their nominee, his vp, and

out of texas today, we're hurricane beryl has weakened to a tropical storm after making landfall this morning as a category one hurricane it remains a dangerous storm with millions at risk from heavy rain and potential flash flooding. in fact, take a look at this video showing powerful winds tearing down a sign at a gas station. you see it coming down there more than three-and-a-half million people in texas, louisiana, and arkansas are now under a tornado watch. texas law enforcement says at least two people have died after trees fell on their homes. and the houston area widespread power outages are also a problem with more than 2 million customers already impacted across the state cnn's michael yoshida is in houston four. so michael, what are you seeing there in the storm right now? >> hey, there at this point, flooding issues all across the city of houston, right on this roadway up to 610. you can see the water still hello. hi, i can tell you it was significantly high or just a short time ago, the water now

getting to the bottom of the vehicles, but it was up at the top of the wheel. well, just maybe 40 and it's an hour ago, these vehicles stalling out early this morning. we even saw a short time ago, a fire truck ladder truck having to be pulled out as while so a lot of water, a lot of issues and in talking with those, even some of those who were in these vehicles this morning, they say it all happened so fast, it was so dark. next thing you know they were in those water. i was starting to come in the sides of the vehicles. their engines were stalling out and flooding out. so not great. that's why we've been hearing throughout the morning, throughout at the time leading up to this as beryl approached officials asking people to not be out on the roadways. that's something again, the houston mayor spoke about just a short time ago huge stones, anyone that can you hear my voice shelter in place. shelter in place. we're in an emergency room. the rescue mode the life safety were literally getting calls

across houston right now asking for first responders to come rescue individuals in desperate life, safety conditions and again, obviously you could see people now still starting to that'd be back out on the roadways. >> ideally, if you don't have to be out, some of those we've been talking two, saying they they are trying to get back home. they wish they hadn't tested these conditions and a lot of this is well, you can see vehicles coming up and then turning around once they hit these spots, we've seen the water start to receive in some areas, but then rise up again and other present as we're dealing with all this water, i can tell you two, if we look right here by the maintenance facility, you can see the wind still picking up as well the flags whip and write that there's obviously a lot of conditions still dealing with the effects of beryl and something we'll be keeping an eye on obviously, throughout the rest of the day in the coming days as well, for mica sheet alive for us from houston. thanks so much.

michael, jessica, out west and dangerous heat wave is shattering records and forcing the national weather service to issue an excessive heat warning that's its highest it's alert for about 36 million people. the stifling heat and death valley, california, it hit 129 degrees over the weekend cause the death of at least one person in the hospitalization of another, cena, natasha chin, is tracking this for us and natasha, what can you tell us about this record record-breaking heat will jessica, it's not just the high temperatures, but the duration of this heat wave, how it's gone on on for days and is still continuing to today, tomorrow over the weekend, we visited the hansen dam aquatic center, which can hold a maximum capacity of 3,000 people. and we just saw so for many in the northern part of los angeles trying to beat the heat. we talked to the very first person in that line trying to get in, who waited there two to three hours for a good spot? but he was describing how the extreme weather has really changed over the last 12 years. he's lived

in that area i guess with global warming how things are getting worse and worse every year. >> when it's winter, it's cold, it's cold. you're here because we're in a bowl, san fernando valley is a bowl. so all the air either gets flies right? over us, which is what's happening here. and then the heat sticks here. and then in the winter, it just slams in here. so it's one of the two of extra names all the time and if we just look at those triple digit temperatures across the west coast, we saw some daily records broken. >> we saw all-time highs broken las vegas for example, hit 120 on sunday. they've been at over 110 degrees every day since wednesday. this is the law fungus stretch of hot weather like that, that they've ever had, you mentioned death valley where a motorcyclist died from heat exposure. another person hospitalized and others treated on scene. authority please. their said that due to the high

temperatures, the emergency medical flight helicopters couldn't even fly to help them because they typically don't fly. when it's a above 120 degrees, then you've portland, oregon at 100 degrees. so places that are not used to seeing these triple-digit temperatures definitely hitting those records. and of course course what that means really dangerous wildfires as well. the lake fires burning in santa barbara, that's close to a sycamore valley ranch. what used to be netherland ranch? jessica. >> all right. natasha jen for us. thanks. so much for that reporting also ahead, we are standing by at the white house where the press secretary is set to take reporters questions as president biden makes it clear he's not calling it quits. and across the pond, a shock victory. french voters keeping the far-right out of power what happens now, but those key us ally shark week

kate bedingfield. thank you both for being with us. steve first to you, this statement from biden and we actually heard it in your interview with congresswoman debbie wasserman schultz just a moment ago, this reference to concern among the elites within the party being what's driving the second guessing about biden being at the top of the ticket do you agree that that's where the concern is coming from well, yes, i do. >> look this difficulty is problem is now transcending joe biden. it's beginning to split my party. jonathan martin did a great piece in politico just so this morning about how now there's this emerging and growing split between by president, by this allies and the african american community has labour allies and donors. and i've seen it, i have to say firsthand, i just got a call from a significant donor telling me that he was going to withhold funds for president biden to me, that's a ten amounts are contributing to president trump but the fact of the matter is there is a divide and if we do not heal and

repair this divide within the next week or so it becomes an existential problem that could result in the election of donald trump and kate i. want to ask you about what we're going to see on the hill play out. so they're all back in congress now in session for the first time since this debate, i just interviewed debbie wasserman schultz. he said no, no, no, this is a handful of people bullet have come out publicly, which to be fair publicly. sure. but but others behind closed doors are reporting entity indicates do want him to step aside, are concerned about this moving forward? and so we will watch for that to see what happens. but i'm curious. where you stand on. really, who is making the statement because what we have not heard from or who we have not heard from his hakeem jeffries and chuck schumer. they have not called for him to step is right. are they the only ones that can move the needle? will they are critically important. no question about it in terms of of joe biden's respect for them. and also obviously the command that they have over their caucuses. of course but i think it's also important to note that the cbc has stood

strong with biden. we're seeing that key members of his coalition, the coalition that got him elected in 2020, are standing with him and the cvc has been unwavering. and so i think if you're for president biden and his team looking at where am i getting support from? that's important because if you look back at 20:19, you look at 20:20. that was how he got the democratic nomination. but african american voters are the backbone of the democratic party. and that was part of how he won the white house in 2020. so i think that is very telling, obviously we've all heard for the reporting that there is rumblings on capitol hill. we will see what happens over the course of this week. but i think president biden has a really strong case to make that the core tenants of his coalition are holding and i certainly agree with what the congressman was just saying. this is a riff that is going to have to be healed as we move toward november. if the ultimate goal is to defeat donald drunk, which it is, but can't do you think i go back to the question i asked the congressman. do you think that this is coming from concern? within the grassroots from constituents that are speaking

to these lawmakers? or is it simply the media class, the elites, the pundits as the congresswoman said to jessica because it seems like at least in the polling that we've seen since the debate and it's not a full picture just yet in the coming days, i think we'll see more, but it seems like there is some slipping in the numbers well, i look, i actually said this on the night of the debate. >> after the debate, but it was clear that this was going to steamroll amongst elites and that we needed to wait and see what voters we're gonna do. i think again, if you're present biden's campaign and you look at the polling picture, what you see is an extremely like close race, one that was extremely close before the debate, where within the margin of error in key swing states he has to win. so i'm certainly not somebody who disputes that. there's work for joe biden and his campaign same to do here. but i don't think that the numbers are dramatically different, at least as we've seen as public poll after public poll comes out, not dramatically different than where they were before the debate. and i think it is indisputable that the loudest voices it's calling for him to step aside are amongst the elites, the media, the chattering class. and so i think it's important for members to take a minute, to

take a beat, to listen to their constituents let's watch the president at nato this week, he's going to have our nato allies here in washington. he's going to have on display a lot of the work that he's done to hold the west together against putin's russian. we're going to see some of the best of joe biden's leadership this week, i think so. i think that members should to take that into account as they're making these decisions this week and see if i want to ask you to we zoom out and just look at this more broadly. donald trump has got to be very quiet. these last few days, probably ten days or so. he he's just kind of letting this in a lot one of ways play out amongst a democrats internally. how damaging do you think this episode is in the long term, even if it can kind of even if you can't is you're saying if the healing can happen how damaging do you think this is two democrats sure. >> this gets resolved. the better shape will be and look, the essence of any campaign. whether you're running for local school board or prezi

united states, is to define and not be defined right now, joe biden is being defined on fairly, i believe we've got to get back to defining donald trump, who just called for the members of the january 6 committee to be in jail to be put in jail. we've got to go back on offense. you cannot win on defense alone. the second thing you need is clarity for voters and right now, democrats are involved in like a fantasy football game where they're trying to figure out who should run if biden doesn't as soon as these questions are answered, and i agree with kate this needs to be answered shortly after the nato meetings, we should give the president the chance he needs to be the commander-in-chief and lead but as soon as we resolve these questions are much later than next week, the quickest the repair will occur, and then we can get back to doing what we need to do, which is to talk about the existential danger of donald trump i do want to ask you about some new reporting and i'm not sure if you're familiar with it cnn just

confirm what was originally in the new york times. and i want to be as accurate as possible because i see it. it's a sensitive issue but cnn has learned that a top parkinson's disease specialists held a meeting with president biden's physician at the white house earlier this year. this is according to records that are kept by the white house. does circumstances of the meeting are unclear. the new york times, how did that he visited the white house? i believe eight times in as many months. there's obviously a lot of scrutiny over president biden's mental acuity and his health. given this reporting given the outstanding questions as a comms person, would you have counseled the president to go forward with more cognitive test? testing and then just put those results out there for the american people. >> well, i'm not a doctor. i wouldn't give him advice on whether or not he should have a cognitive test because i'm not a doctor. doctors should make medical decisions communications dapsone make communications decision. so i would've been my place to say whether or not he should have a cognitive test. i think the president has been very transparent with his medical records, certainly far more transparent than donald trump,

who was like having his doctor put forth a handwritten note that said donald trump's doing great. you've had joe biden has put out every year, has put out his his medical his annual physical and has made clear that those are the full results. so i don't think i think there's a little bit of a so that's never going to be a bar that you can meet. you're never going to be able to satisfy if people want to see a conspiracy, they're going to see one. and i think that from a communications perspective, being clear about i'm putting forward the necessary medical information, doing it every single year, not hiding behind it. that is that's the right decision. perhaps it's not medical records, but do you think that democrats on cattle a little hill would be more comforted if the president had come out that friday or that weaken and done a full-blown press conference is opposed to a 20-minute speech off a teleprompter, a 20 minutes interviewing these sort of abridged appearances. >> well, i've definitely been a proponent of he should have been out quickly. he should have been out more. i think we're starting to see that he saw him out this morning. bringing we saw him yesterday campaigning in pennsylvania,

looking energetic, looking vigorous. you're going to see him as i said, you're going to see him this week with nato liters. he's gonna give a press conference this this week. so i am certainly of the mindset from a communications perspective that seeing him having seen him quickly, more quickly after the debate would've been a good thing. but i think he's making up that ground now. now you heard him this morning fighting, swinging. i think that's what he's got to continue to show people. kate bedingfield, thanks so much. and former congressman steve israel, we've reshaped both of you still to come boeing agreeing to plead guilty to defrauding the federal government. but families of victims of two fatal crashes, say the company got a sweetheart deal details next on cnn, news central this election season, stay with cnn with more reporters on the ground. and the best political team in the business follow the voters follow the results follow the facts, follow cnn. >> if you have graves disease,

>> start watching at fuego tv.com laura coates live tonight at 11 eastern on cnn there is outrage today over what's being described as a sweetheart deal for boeing, the airplane manage hey fracture, agreeing to plead guilty to conspiracy to defraud the u.s. government. now, in exchange,

boeing avoids what could have been more serious consequences for two deadly 737 max plane crashes. but the families of the 346 people killed in those crashes, what boeing to face a public trial, see you in an aviation correspond, pete man teen is here. p tells me for details about all of this. well, remember this goes back to the 737 max eight crashes the lion air crash, and indonesia in 2018, the ethiopian air crash and 2019, you mentioned 346 people people killed in those crashes and their families say this deal simply does not go far enough. >> here are the terms according to the department of justice, boeing is being fined $487 million. the department of justice insist that is the maximum flying allowed by law the government will also be appointing an independent compliance monitor to oversee boeing's for the next three years. but attorney's point out that boeing does actually have a say in selecting that on it are the biggest part here is that boeing is agreeing to plead guilty to defrauding the federal aviation administration about the 737 max eight boeing hid major design changes that

lead to those two crashes. i want you to listen now abab clifford, who has been leading the civil case against boeing the families call this a sweetheart deal. it's incomplete. maybe someone high up. i'm not sure who the high up is. made a policy decision that boeing needs to be able to suffer a bit. but not enough to cause them to be out of business or go out of business because this so the insistence by families is that this is not tough enough on boeing. remember, this case was essentially closed, but boeing agreed to a settlement and the final days of the trump administration that was also slapped, then with three years of probation, january's door plug blowout on a 737 max nine occurred only days before that probation was set to n. so that trigger the department of justice to look at the original deal again and ultimately lead to this new deal being announced today, something that's still an open question.

will this lead to individuals being criminally charged, like executives of boeing, the department of justice says this deal provides for that, but attorneys insist that is not the case. and boeing executives still need he to be held accountable. they're planning on an appeal in the fifth circuit court of appeal. you mentioned doj saying that that's the maximum fine allowable by law. but how are they justified justifying their the rest of the structure of this plea deal to the family. essentially, they say it's very tough on boeing and the families really wanted a $25 billion settlement from boeing here they simply just say it does not go far enough. although the department of justice says they've been very very strong on boeing from the start. and the fact that they open this back up is simply a sign of that all right. >> piedmont team. thanks so much. we appreciate it. >> i had for us a surprise twist in france, the country now facing a new political limp, political limbo after a left-wing coalition unexpectedly surged. >> and the far-right party fell short of predictions. we'll talk more about it. that's next

us in paris. melissa, how does the country move forward following these results? >> well, that is the question on everybody's mind and i include in that bar is all of france's political classes. this evening here in paris, the national assembly comes out of this much more divided and much more fragmented than even it was. before the french president decided to dissolve it. just a few weeks ago, just to remind our viewers, this was an election that was called off to the huge success of the far-right in european elections. they trounced everybody else. the french president felt he needed dissolve parliament to give the voice that people see whether this one's controversial party that seemed drove suddenly managed to get the support of such a big part of the country deserve to rule. hence, the parliamentary elections that were held first round they came in first. the far left are lines that was cobbled together ago, just a month ago, less than a month ago to try and stop them, came in second emmanuel macron's centrist this in third, and then this huge upset last night when not

reversal in just a week voting two rounds in french parliamentary elections. and it is said or is that in france who vote with your heart for the first round, your second with your head. and that appears to have what been what's happened mbb, lots of tactical voters voting many people but went out to vote for this left-wing alliance. but again, cobbled together at the last minute and that represents a wide variety of use. the question this soft noon this evening as we head into the next few weeks thanks of uncertainty off the celebrations of loss night. yes. the far-right was kept out of power. the question is, what now becomes to froms political system and nobody has the answer there's that we've been hearing from a source close to president mecole, who said that it may well be that we head into the olympics, which are just 18 days away without a new government being formed. so any case a period of substantial chaos and much more divided parliament than there was before. no far-right in government. but still this is a party that now is one of the biggest blocks in france is legislative assembly. the national assembly here just

behind me the main question for the political cost is now in specifically that left-wing alliance that won the day and now is the biggest block france's parliament is how they're going to agree amongst themselves on who should be a candidate to be the next prime minister. so weeks of chaos, weeks of deadlock ahead a lot of questions still to be answered. a sign of the divided political times. melissa bell reporting from paris. thank you so much you know, who else has questions to answer the white house and are set to take questions from the press this room at any moment the president going on the offensive saying, i am not going anywhere as lawmakers in his own party are calling him for for him to step away from it. the campaign we're going to bring you the briefing once it begins, stay with us i love milwaukee and his live from milwaukee as republicans unite behind their nominee, his vp, and they're planning to take that the white house to follow cnn for complete coverage. >> the republican national convention starts next monday at eight on cnn not every
