1:00 am
here? >> you're sitting you are supporting you have helped build a universe. true frank speech and frank social in 2020 my vote was stolen a universe of influencers and media outlets spewing misinformation misinformation that could cause confusion and chaos this november and it's the media outlets like these are becoming increasingly influential trump loses. >> they're going to be used to build up the narrative that the election was stolen and if he wins they're going. to be used to push pro pro-trump propaganda there's going to be a lot more of this
1:01 am
welcome to all you watching us here in the united states, canada, and around the world, i'm kim brunhuber this is cnn newsroom, a tale of two donald trump's on the campaign trail, the one that stays on message and the one that veers off what he said about his rival kamala harris ahead of the democratic national convention america's top diplomat is on his way to israel amid high-stakes efforts to finalize a ceasefire deal. >> still a possible iranian retaliation loops want details plus a live report from tehran and their next goes east coast threat. what millions of americans should know about the storm that slammed bermuda live from atlanta this is cnn newsroom with kim kim bruhuber well, we are in just one day away from the start of the democratic national convention when vice president kamala harris officially becomes the party's nominee for president. but even in these final hours
1:02 am
ahead of that the whole of one state is just too strong for either party to resist harris and her running mate tim walz will launch a bus tour through western pennsylvania in the hours ahead, starting in pittsburgh. former president donald trump was back in the keystone state saturday. he's also setting up counter programming during the dnc this week with events planned in other battlegrounds at his rally in wilkes barre saturday, trump took aim at harris attacking her new economic plans and the changes to the democratic ticket. curious gobbling laid out or so-called economic plan. >> she says she's going to lower the cost of food and housing starting on day one. but day one for camila was three-and-a-half years ago so why didn't she do it then she breaks everything that she touches. but soon we're going to fix every single problem. kamala harris and joe biden,
1:03 am
crooked joe what happened to biden? he's running against biden all of a sudden i'm running against somebody else that despite recent reports of republicans asking trump to stay on script, he did veer from prepared remarks at one point, he criticized the harris her looks, even though he called her beautiful and compared her to his wife melania we have just last week in a conversation with elon musk. >> listen to this i'm a better look in person. >> then kamala no, i couldn't believe it. she said, you know, i had never heard that one they said no, her biggest advantages that she's a beautiful woman. i'd gone i never thought of that i'm better looking than she is on monday, harris will appear with president biden at the democratic national convention in chicago. >> the commander in chief will take the stage as the featured speaker on night one. he's at camp david this weekend working on his remarks and he gave a brief preview of his speech to
1:04 am
reporters before boarding marine one friday night periods work on this. >> weekend? yes. >> what's your message to democrats on monday night aides say biden is pleased that the momentum building around the candidacy of his second in command. >> on monday, he's expected to argue that she is the best choice to lead the country and build on the gains his administration has made. biden will also make the case that trump is a threat to democracy. >> now, new polling by the new york times and sienna college shows that kamala harris is gaining support in the sunbelt. >> so those are seats in the southern and southwestern u.s. and include key swing states. now there's no clear leader yet, but it's still good news for the harris team. harry enten breaks it down for us now i want you to take a look at the key in the yellow. all within the margin of error. so we kept kamala harris up by five points in arizona, georgia trump up by four, nevada trump
1:05 am
up by one. and in north carolina or democrats want to play se, kamala harris up to their bottom line is two states where trump is ahead, two states we're harrison just ahead, but all within the margin of error, tight, tight, tight. now, what's key here is who would rather be in this situation, who has the momentum? and i want you to take a look at these states in the aggregate, right? this is the democrat versus donald trump, arizona, georgia, nevada, and north carolina. you go back to november of 2020 across these four states biden and trump are essentially tied. but in may of 2024, look at that, look at that advantage that donald trump held in these states. he was up by nine points over joe biden. now, in august of 2024, we've got that tied race again. so what we have right now is essentially the same picture and aggregate that we had back in remember of 2020. and of course, joe biden won that year. so the bottom line is kamala harris, whip momentum. you'd rather be her than donald trump if we're projecting this out nationally.
1:06 am
but it is way too close to call in the sunbelt stage. >> alright, i want to bring in natasha lindstaedt, who's a professor of government at the university of essex, and she joins us now from in colchester, england. thank you so much for being here with us. so i imagined for democrats there's plenty of feel-good factor will have president biden handing the torch brock obama, the clintons, plenty of star power as well. so what are you, what do you think democrats will be hoping to get out? what did this, what would be a perfect convention for them? what would that look like a perfect convention for the democrats will be if they can just capitalize on the momentum that they have built all this goodwill, all this optimism, all this hope that they can just kinda keep that moving the last few weeks campaign has been rolled out and it's been really expertly rolled out. >> they want to just keep that momentum going. they want to showcase the democratic party in a positive light. they want to show that it's united know that's something that the
1:07 am
republicans were able to do last month. at their convention and even a month ago, the idea that the democrats would be united when it seemed almost impossible. but now i really united behind the harris-walz ticket and they want to show that they are really behind her and walt as well. and they also want to give america a chance to get to know harris and walz, so who are they, who do they represent? what are they all about though there's been all kinds of media coverage on this ticket and the campaign crystal millions of americans that don't really know that much about them. so they want to portray the ticket in a really positive light. and explain to the american public what their broader agenda is and what the specific policies are that they're advocating on that. >> so what do you think the major themes will be? >> for sure they're going to be talking about reproductive rights. i mean, this is something that kamala harris is very comfortable talking about. no, she's not speaking until thursday. but this is an area that the democrats have been
1:08 am
doing really, really well. this probably explains why harris is doing so much better than trump when it comes to female voters, depending on the swing-state, you have a lead of somewhere between 14 and 17 points in addition to focusing on reproductive rights, i think they're going to be talking about freedoms more generally, the idea that harris is there to protect people's freedoms and they're going to also have to talk about the economy. and this is an area where there could be an opportunity, but it could also be a bit tricky for the democrats. we've seen that harris has been closing in on donald trump's lead with the american public in terms of how they feel, who is best at managing the economy. she's doing better than biden was invited, struggled to just are too like why things were going so well. even though there were unemployment, it's over, but she's going to have to articulate an economic message that can resonate with the american public yeah, that will be a key issue. >> we know donald trump will be
1:09 am
counterprogramming with his own speech on monday and he's spent his time as he would attack him harris on the economy. listen to this i think of it. >> does anyone here feel richer under kamala harris is anything less expensive under kamala harris? >> no, it's been it's been devastating inflation inflation has been devastating under this group of people that have no idea what the hell they're doing? so i mean, that is basically the fundamental question that he was asking, right? how do you feel about the biden-harris economy? if i were a republican strategist, i mean, that would be my advice to donald trump stick to that instead of that though he is spending most of his time on these rambling personal attacks, do you think he will have the discipline? flynn to sort of hone in on this economic message this week no,
1:10 am
he hasn't demonstrated that he has any discipline. >> i mean, some of the clips you've shown or just laughable. what what is he saying? what is he talking about comparing? their appearance, he should be focusing on inflation. there is higher inflation than there was for years ago. of course, this is a global phenomenon. it's not just in the us, but he hasn't shown any discipline and this is where harris really has an opportunity to talk about what she's going to do building off the successful biden policies of trying to lower the cost of prescription drugs or reducing student debt or reducing childcare costs he'll talk about what she's going to do differently, which would be two more aggressively ensure that americans have access to affordable housing and going after price gouging. now, this is the area that trump has been critical, claiming is you're like communist price control. she's gotta be careful the way share taillights this message she's really just talking about empowering the federal trade commission to investigate price spikes and she needs to contrast yourself with trump, who is going to raise tariffs.
1:11 am
that's going to lead to more inflation. and he's going to really reduce taxes for the rich. and that isn't something that most americans are persons support. >> it, all right, we'll have to leave it there. always appreciate speaking with you, natasha lindstaedt. thank you so much. >> thanks for having me and for stay with cnn for complete coverage of the democratic national convention in chicago and begins sunday at 7:00 in the evening eastern time. that's monday, 7:00 a.m. in hong kong in just a matter of hours, u.s secretary of state, antony blinken is due to arrive in israel. his trip is part of the u.s. plan to apply new pressure on israel and hamas to reach a ceasefire deal is expected to meet with israeli officials on sunday israeli negotiators are set to be optimistic about the talks, but hamas is expressing reservations in gaza officials at the al-aqsa hospital say an israeli airstrike today killed seven members of the same
1:12 am
family. the victims are set to be a mother and her six children on saturday. civil defense official say an israeli strike killed at least 15 members of another family, including nine children. israel says it strikes killed several militants in gaza also on saturday, the israeli military issued new evacuation orders in gaza. nation says, after these new orders, only 11% center of gaza can be considered humanitarian zones. meanwhile, hamas says an israeli airstrike in the west bank killed two of its military commanders on saturday israel says the pair were involved in planning a shooting attack last sunday in the jordan valley now on the streets of tel aviv, protesters lit a fire at an anti-government protesting. there would be a deal or escalation. some israelis are skeptical that a ceasefire deal will happen and say they doubt that israeli prime minister benjamin netanyahu actually wants one families of the hostages still in gaza are tempering their expectations
1:13 am
every time their conversations like this is a very tense time for us we learned from past experience that not to build expectation too much because then it this doesn't the complex to a deal. >> the disappointment to so huge. you go down so fast so far that it's very hard to rise up again. but we still try it is still optimistic and hope but really, really can't build our expectation too much. because then it will be very hard to recover for us. >> journalist elliott gotkine is live in london air. fred pleitgen is live in teheran. fred, let me start with you. so take us through the role you expect iran to play. in the upcoming talks hi there, kim. >> well, first of all, we're now pretty interesting place here were inside the iranian parliament, inside the modulus. and right now what's going on here is actually the confirmation hearings for the new government of newly elected president masoud pezeshkian's, that's going to be very interesting to see how that shapes are wrong let's foreign
1:14 am
policy in these very key times in the middle east. the other thing of course, so that is going on as well, is that you do have this term while that is still going on, i spoke to a couple of members so parliament here, but inside including some very prominent one. and they certainly say that they're not very confident about the ceasefire negotiations that are going on. they don't believe that israel is serious it's about the ceasefire negotiations and also they say they don't trust the united states to be an objective mediator in all this because they believe that the u.s. is firmly in the corner of the israelis. nevertheless parliamentarians that we've been speaking to here on the ground. they do say that they hope that there will be a ceasefire. obviously, that the bloodshed inside of gaza that ends. and at the same time, you do have that iranian retaliation for the assassination of ismail haniyeh, which happened just a day after the inauguration of the new president masoud pezeshkian. that's still very much looms here and parliamentarians, we've been speaking to here and they fully say they fully expect that strike is going to happen. a political analysts that i spoke
1:15 am
to also said he believes a strike will happen and he laid out some of the things he believes that the iranians are currently considered as a snake i think the response, although it will be harsh, i think it will be calculated in a way so that countries across the global south don't conclude that iran is putting them at risk so the court, the ball really is in the court of americans after the iranian strike and i think it will be hurtful significantly. >> they will cause significant pain to the israeli regime let's the view here on the ground that there will probably still be a strike by the iranians. >> and that sets strike will be quite hurtful to the israelis. nevertheless, the iranians have also pointed out that they don't want all of us to descend into a wider conflict in the region. in fact, they say they want things to calm down all right, thanks so much. >> i want to turn to elliott now secretary of state antony blinken will soon be landing in
1:16 am
israel to biden restriction has said things are close. they're trying to put pressure on israel to make a deal. what's your sense? where do things stand came? >> i don't want to undermine what president biden has been saying in terms of saying that we're closer than we've ever been before in terms of a ceasefire hostage deal, or the cautious optimism that we are a hearing from the israeli side, but we do need i think to look at the past nine months of on-off talks between israel and hamas mediated of course, by the united states. and in particular the qataris and the egyptians and see that we have been here so many times when there has been this optimism we heard from that relative of an israeli hostage saying that they want to get their hopes up too high because in the past those hopes have only been dashed and i'm constantly reminded of that time when in february president biden in michigan's saying that he hoped a deal would be done, that we can. so i think caution rather than optimism is probably a better way to describe the
1:17 am
current situation. we've heard from a source familiar with the talks that were taking place in doha last week, saying that for the israelis, at least in the words of this source, the gaps have been narrowed in terms of the positions of israel and hamas. then we had a statement from prime minister benjamin netanyahu's office on saturday evening saying that there were elements that where acceptable to israel in terms of the proposal that is on the table and that they were expressing cautious optimism. but as we were just hearing this isn't the stance, certainly not of iran nor from hamas, which has been saying that first of all, the united states seems to be slanted towards israel, that the proposal on the table is kind of factoring in in more the israeli side of things and at the same time, they are also saying that prime minister benjamin netanyahu is obstructing these talks. now, it may be that both sides, this is all part of the negotiating process. it may be also that both sides are trying to insure
1:18 am
themselves in the event that these talks also come to nothing so that they're in a position to blame the other side. but certainly the pressure on both sides to do a deal has never been higher. not just because of the death toll and the war that is still ongoing in gaza. and also now, it seems an outbreak of polio for the first time in 25 years prompting the u.n. to call for a seven week pause in fighting so they can vaccinate more than half 1 million children, but also because of this prospect of a hezbollah and or iranian retaliation for the assassination of hezbollah's top military commander in beirut. and also the assassination of ismail haniyeh, the head of hamas that's his political bureau in a guest house in tehran. both of those happening at the end of july. now, as we've been hearing, there is still an expectation that there will be some kind of retaliation, perhaps a calibrated retaliation that doesn't drag israel and iran slash hezbollah
1:19 am
into all out war. and that for the moment because of these talks that retaliation seems to be on hold. but of course, if these talks, if and when these if these talks come to nothing and even if they do actually reach a deal, some kind of retaliation is still expected, and that's of course why secretary of state antony blinken is in the air right now to try to pressure the israeli side to move towards doing a deal. and at the end of last week we had the uk and french foreign ministers in israel also to put pressure on the israeli side to do a deal. so as i say, there is perhaps hope that a deal can be done rather than optimism. but given past form over the past nine months is the last one and only ceasefire collapsed. it pays to be cautious, kim, all right. >> its only got can in london. thanks so much ukraine's incursion into russia has been a major humiliation for president vladimir putin. but now kyiv wants to raise the stakes and striking deeper behind the front lines. that's ahead. plus temperatures continue to climb in parts of the u.s triggering excessive

1:24 am
following the launch of its cross-border incursion. that's from president volodymyr zelenskyy, who's now calling on allies to allow kyiv to conduct long-range strikes on russia areas. >> little mole session data national, we're doing everything possible to provide our soldiers with the necessary weapons since in reinforcements, in this context, it is crucial that our partners remove barriers, to prevent us from weakening russian positions in the way the course of the war demands. we can reliably deprived the occupier of any opportunity to advance and spread destruction if our long-range capabilities were sufficient ukraine says it has advanced 35 kilometers there are more than 20 miles into russia and captured more than 80 settlements. >> it says it holds more than 100 square kilometers of russian territory, and that's more than 420 square miles. and just kyiv pushes ahead, russia stepping up the evacuation of civilians from border areas, more than 3,000 were moved on saturday, bringing the total to who at least 200,000 since the ukrainian offensive began u.s.
1:25 am
officials say kyiv is still technically in compliance with the restrictions on using u.s. made weapons and russia, they admit washington didn't anticipate those weapons would be part of a ground offensive across the border. but they say kyiv is still using them within the areas allowed by the u.s. it was very analysts. mick ryan spoke to cnn a short time ago about ukraine's incursion across the border. and we asked him if ukraine is ready to be an occupying force and what challenges it will face their hair. yes. >> well biggest challenge i have is the amount of troops i have available to occupied that territory, 1,100 square kilometers is it's almost double the amount of territory that the russian army is taken in the donbass issue. so do they have enough troops to do that compared to the defensive campaign, they must also wage in the donbass supplying them will be difficult because their supply routes will be constantly interdicted by the russians and do they have enough electronic warfare aid, things in these kind of things?
1:26 am
so there's a whole lot of military concerns in seeking to take a1 hold. the enemy's territory for a long period of time. and that doesn't even include what because i can use foreign weapons, which they currently restricted from using at the moment and general island also said both russia and ukraine are now conducting two major ground campaigns, but they're unlikely to be sustained in the medium term venezuelan opposition leader maria corina machado, made her first public appearance in weeks on set a joining demonstrators and what her party called a protest for the truth and the capital caracas, thousands of venezuelans and others around the world answered machado's call to action, showing support for the opposition's claim of electoral victory against longtime strongman nicolas maduro meanwhile, maduro and his supporters held a counter demonstration in caracas hours after the opposition's where the authoritarian leader declared, quote, the door will be slammed on anyone who pokes their nose into venezuela

1:32 am
where trump was campaigning on saturday, his second visit to the state since last month's attempted assassination during the rally, trump escalating his personal attacks on his opponent, vice president kamala harris meanwhile, tim walz was campaigning in his home state of nebraska on saturday for the first time since becoming the democratic vice presidential nominee. he held a rally in the city of omaha where a single electoral vote could impact the outcome of the president presidential race while leaned into his local ties and contrasted his midwestern roots with donald trump and the gop vice presidential nominee, j.d vance. he also slammed trump for trying to distance himself from the project 2025, which is a conservative blueprint for a second trump term. here is when he tries to play dumb about this 2025 plan i coached football for enough years when somebody takes the time to drop a playbook, they plan on using it he knows he knows what this
1:33 am
will do. >> restrict our freedoms, rig the economy he for the ultra-rich by punishing the middle-class if he returns to the white house, he's going to pick up just where he left off but the people around him who worked with him the first time are already telling us it will be much much worse donald trump and his campaign have been making a push to win over black voters cnn's elle reeve traveled to virginia recently to visit a store owned by a black woman selling maga merchandise and items featuring the confederate flag. she spoke to the business owner and two other voters there about how they feel about their choices every woman i have one of these that's one of those things that when people see one, then they want one same thing with the confederate hat. you know why? because people don't like you have the nerve to do it as joanne price runs a trump store
1:34 am
in christiansburg, virginia when joe biden announced he wouldn't run for president again, was there any part of you who felt a pull to vote for parents know, it's a little not i will not vote for either one of them. i would not democratic ticket no way. >> this is all white photos and this is just a play. >> it just says this car trump's everything and it gives a barrier happiness and success because of the color of his skin and who buys that bite people it's funny and then when you gave it to stay trip ticket, easing, so experienced and then when he said okay, he laughed at me and gave it back and did not write me a ticket. >> this actually happened at least once elsewhere in 2022, a woman claimed alaska police let her go without a ticket when she flashed a white privilege card instead of a driver's license? >> it's humorous to us it
1:35 am
really is this humerus to the, to the average american here. >> he was going because when working to appeal to black voters. and polls showed some success when biden was still in the race, but have since gone down the trump campaign this year has made a big effort to reach out to black voters what do you think of their efforts? i think they are if it's not succeeding tremendous like all things have happened to president trump, the attacks on him have been nothing more than strengthen black peoples connection to him because now he's someone who is the target of a struggle and they have always been felt that they've been a target. i did prison ministries for five years, so if you're convicted felon and then somebody else is a convicted felon. there's a camaraderie there donald trump attacked kamala harris, questioning her racial identity. she's black according indian heritage. i didn't know she was black until a number of
1:36 am
years ago when she happened turn black and now she wants to be known as black he's acknowledged his commentary has provoked mixed reactions prices, just one person and not a swing voter. >> but we were curious what she made of his comments, given that she's a black woman and fervent trump supporter and former local republican party chair how do you make sense of how trump talks about vice president kamala harris that he sort of suggested he doesn't understand her biracial background that for she was indian and then she was black understand it either she's indian and she's jamaica yeah is she black i mean, do you not think she's black as she was she born here? yes. >> yes. >> where her parents, citizens no. okay but we have birthright citizenship in america do we call that anchor? people can immigrate here and not be
1:37 am

1:43 am
are sending a blunt message there government, they lit a fire on the streets of tel aviv saturday data mark that they have regional escalation. if there's no ceasefire and hostage release deal with hamas in gaza, civil defense officials say and israeli strike on saturday killed at least 15 members of the same family, including nine children also on saturday, the israeli military issued new evacuation orders in gaza. the united nation says only 11% of gaza can now be considered humanitarian zones. hellyer is a middle east studies scholar at the carnegie endowment for international peace. and he joins us live from prague. good to see you again. we've heard signs of optimism from the biden astriction and from some israeli sources. you and i spoke a few days ago. do you think anything meaningfully has changed well, thank you very much for having me on your program. >> kim i don't think that we've seen sufficient progress
1:44 am
to justify that sense of optimism what we have over the last 24 hours is another israeli strike on the ballot and the gaza strip where around 20 people were killed, including a woman in her six children that happened literally last night and you have the israeli side of the negotiations insisting on new demands that it seems that the americans have accepted. so we're not really closing in on gaps as much as we're creating new ones. i think when you have one side of negotiations, actually assassinating the lead negotiator of the other side of a negotiations. it doesn't really build for much of a path towards trust in order for these negotiations to succeed. what we've seen multiple times over the past nine months as the israelis themselves have attested to our continuous efforts by the netanyahu
1:45 am
government to sabotage the negotiations at pretty much every step so i think what we have right now is some movement, but also huge gaps and new gaps. and we still haven't heard from hamas in terms of how they will respond to this and i don't think that it's likely that they will move even further than what the original deal stipulated because the goalposts seem to keep changing and again this been testified to by israeli sources themselves. you've seen it inherits, you've seen it in leaks that axios, you've seen it on multiple occasions that even the israeli negotiators are incredibly frustrated with the moving of goalpost by netanyahu himself personally i don't think that's changed so on that then secretary of state anthony blinken will be landing in israel shortly. >> so how much pressure can or
1:46 am
will the biden ministration exerts on israel here, do you think beyond rhetoric? >> so this is groundhog day really so i firmly believe that the biden ministration wants a deal to happen and i think that anthony blinken really wants this deal to go through. unfortunately, they simply don't want it enough. and what i mean by that is by going to israel or by talking with israeli officials. they think that they can apply pressure. the israelis know very well that this is talk that this is rhetoric, that this is, these are discussions and words. whereas when it comes to actual pressure at the united nations security council and the u.s. of the u.s. veto. the provision of aid, the provision of military assistance question of weaponry. none of that is on the table. none of that has been touched. no reason even threatening to put this off the table and that's what pressure actually looks like using the leverage that the united states has to actually ensure a change in israeli behavior and bring
1:47 am
gaza to a ceasefire. but also deescalate in the region more generally so that we don't spiral into another round of conflict with regards to lebanon, with regards to iran i think that's in everybody's best interests on the domestic considerations for at least for the u.s. the democrats are of course, holding their convention this week we can expect significant pro-palestinian protests. there with all of that in the background, do you think that might change the calculus here for the biden administration in terms of increasing the leverage here that they're going to exert so just a small word on the protests because i've watched these protests are vast and months i wouldn't call them all pro palestinian protests. a lot of them are simply about international law and trying to make sure the united states holds to a consistent line when it comes to international law. they have the same demands of the
1:48 am
israelis because they do, of the russians when it comes to ukraine. now, in terms of what sort of pressure this might apply, i think that the harris campaign is already aware that the oval majority of democratic voters want a more balanced perspective presented in policy from a democratic administration. whether or not this is actually going to push the harris administration at this juncture in the election is only a couple months away when vice president harris is still vice president harris, she serves in the biden administration, i think is rather unlikely. i suspect that we'll see a few sort of signals to try to put people at ease or tried to make sure that they realized that this is a much better than any trump administration is going to give them. but also give them some hope that that change from the current biden ministrations policy, but i wouldn't expect too much. i don't think that it plays into the calculations as much. because i think these
