to do here. i don't happen to agree with it because i think they've got a target rich environment with in the seven states that we care about talking about the economy, talking about immigration, talking about international crisis. >> but all of what you said is coming at the expense. of the people. >> and i was just going to say too that you see with kamala harris, she is out there talking about the issues she's talking about abortion and she's talking about housing. she's talking about childcare, and she's talking about the issues that do matter to voters at the end of the day. and so, you know, i think as long as she keeps going out there and talking about this she will expand the electorate and she will get more voters. we hope on her side because she's talking about the issues that matter when some of the issue polling that's out this morning is i think some of the most interesting because it may show that she's winning this kind of push pull with republicans. alright, thank you guys for being with us this morning. i really appreciate your time. thanks to all of you for joining us as well. i'm kasie hunt don't go anywhere. cnn news central starts right now
4:01 am
polling with just 47 days ago, a new snapshot or snapshots of the state of the presidential race. in the battlegrounds? >> first pager is now a new round of exploding devices, targets a terror group. how israel is pulling off these brazen attacks and the two-week manhunt for the gunman who shot five people on a busy interstate. it finally comes to an end who foundand half sarah sidner is out. i'm john berman with kate baldwin cnn new central starts now
4:02 am
a new read on the 2024 race post-debate polling from the new york times and sienna college showing harris and donald trump, in a dead heat nationally, four to seven 47, among likely voters, i have no idea what voice that was. >> just go with him. but then if you take a closer look at pennsylvania, it offers this snapshot putting harris ahead of trump with a four-point leave. now, today, harris is focusing in on battleground michigan. bring it the big guns with oprah and a huge zoom event with more than 90,000 people expected to tune in. it's been billed as an intimate conversation though. it's mostly virtual event. so as intimate as one can get there, cnn's priscilla alvarez is joining us now with much more on this what. >> are, they going to do with this polling snapshot today? >> brazil well, kate, there are some bright spots in this polling and some things that the campaign has been cautioning about. >> so let me just break this down for you. pennsylvania definitely a bright spot and some good news for this campaign because as you see,
4:03 am
there is an edge of four percentage points for the vice president. of course pennsylvania is been a state that she has been very focused on spending a large amount of her time over the last two weeks in that state. now, another point in this poll though, is that the state of the economy and concerns about it are still widespread and that is where the campaign is still trying to make inroads in getting that economic message to those voters and reassuring them that the economy is moving in the right direction or at the very least that her policies will help get it there. so that is something that the campaign is certainly looking at. then to she's winning 40 he's 6% of white voters in pennsylvania. that's an important block one that usually leans toward former president donald trump. so that's another bit of good news here. but when you look at this big picture the nationally, this is still a death deadlocked. they are still in a very, very tight race. and when you talk to campaign officials, as i do do,
4:04 am
they know that it's going to be tight until the very end. so presented with these polls, that's typically their response. i'll also know that this polling which was done after the debate voters saying that the vice president did for better than former president donald trump campaign advisors. they were delighted after that debate performance by the vice president. but in that conversation, they would also say, but hillary clinton may have won heard debates two and 2016, and she didn't win so they are also aware that even though they see these polls, that there is a resoundingly positive review for the vice president it's not guaranteed that she wins in november and she herself has been saying this on the campaign trail. so again, this poll, some bright spots, especially with the state of pennsylvania, which they're so focused on as part of their pathway to 270. but certainly showing that the race is still remains deadlock despite that debate yeah
4:05 am
there's more polling. we'll dig in throughout the show sun coming up from meira, some coming out from quinnipiac. all very interesting but all again, a snapshot and also just showing how close the race will continue to be, especially nationally all the way when they run through the tape i mentioned the oprah event that this virtual event they're hosting it in michigan what is this all about other than, you know, how important michigan is, if you know, you're bringing over there well, and you're also harnessing the support of black women and black women, 90% of them voted for president biden in 2020. this is a reliable bloc for democrats, but what they're also trying to do here is mobilize them, have them get out, try to get people to register so to vote and help harness more support, especially in these battleground states including michigan, where this event is taking place. so it is these types of live streams that the campaign has been looking toward, which are perhaps unconventional ways of trying
4:06 am
to reach many voters and trying to get them to shore up support in many of these critical states it's good to see priscilla. >> thank you so much. john. >> all right. new this morning, donald trump is promising to visit springfield, ohio in the next two weeks, he claims that is the town where trump has without evidence claim that haitian immigrants are eating family pets he vows to deport haitian immigrants saying they are quote, destroying the country. trump is claimed the 32,000 illegal immigrants are in springfield now the city says, it's actually between 12 and 15,000 immigrants and they have legal status cnn's steve contorno is with us this morning trump often says he's going to do something in the next week or two. steve, this trip to springfield, how much credence should we put in it well, it's certainly something that has been rumored to be in the offing for quite a bit now, his campaign donald trump and
4:07 am
his running mate have doubled down on that rhetoric that we saw at the debate. >> that the either quote, eating the pets in springfield, ohio will now they're going to triple down and there is plans in the works to go to springfield, ohio, as well as aurora, colorado, another city that has been sort of a fixation of the right for some of what's happening with migrants, their take a listen to what he said last night at this rally in uniondale, new york tougher. >> i'm going to go there and the next two weeks i'm going to springfield and i'm going to aurora again, but that's okay got to do what i got it. whatever happens to trump while he never got out of springfield woods very clear as donald trump wants to make the final weeks of this race about immigration is a topic that he turns to an almost every single event. he holds, even if it's
4:08 am
billed as an education event or economy or some other topic, the most he spends the most time by far talking about immigration and even, even as the republican governor of the state asked him to tone down this divisive rhetoric, even as the people who run the city of springfield are saying that these need to be debunked, that he continues to double down j.d. vance continues to double down and we're going to see them potentially play in springfield as well very quickly, steve, the trump campaign seems happy this morning with the non-endorsement from the teamsters that's right, john, the teamsters have endorsed democratic candidate going all the way back to 1992. >> so they view a non-endorsement as a victory and they also point out the fact that the teamsters have please polling that shows 60% of their members support donald trump's. so he is claiming an endorsement from the rank and file of course, the harris campaign is finding plenty of teamsters, leaders who support them as well. but for now, this has been a good day for donald trump. they're saying alright,
4:09 am

tbs overnight eight israelis were injured when an anti-tank missile reported it was fired into northern israel from lebanon, hezbollah claiming responsibility. >> also, overnight, israeli airstrikes targeted hezbollah weapons and infrastructure sites in lebanon, israel targeted those sites part of what israel is calling its new era of war. now this comes after two days of brazen coordinated and sophisticated attacks by israel. we've been reporting on operations targeting hezbollah members with exploding pagers. and walkie-talkies, at least 32 people killed from these attacks, thousands injured cnn's ben wedeman is in beirut with much more on the latest on those reporting. ben, what are you learning we've seen in the last two days? >> he's kate is a death toll among his butler members the likes of which have not been seen in a 48 hour period going

know, our superpower is selling unsellable housing 20,000 over our list price. wow, whether you're buying we've got your back unsellable houses, all new wednesday at eight on hgtv all right. >> new reaction this morning to the first interest rate cut in 2020, a big one, half a point. vice president kamala harris released a statement calling it quote, welcome news. donald trump said this i guess it shows the economy is very bad to kind of buy that much assuming they're not just playing politics the economy would be very bad for their playing politics one or the other. but there was a big guy let's get right to cnn's matt egan and washington. >> he's talking about jerome powell, the fed chair, who he appointed, not politics is about the economy. matt absolutely. john, the former president, is right about at least one thing. this was a jumbo-sized interest rate cut.
4:22 am
but as far as this suspicion that politics were at play two points, there yes. let's not forget who may jerome powell, one of the most powerful people on the planet? former president trump. this is trump's hand picked fed chairman. the other point though here is powell has stressed repeatedly the fed does not play politics and i asked the fed chair yesterday why he believes it's so important that the fed remains independent from politics listen we do our work to serve all americans. >> we're not serving any politician, any political figure, any cause, any issue. nothing. it's just maximum employment and price stability on behalf of all americans and that's how the other central banks are set up to. it's a good institutional arrangement which has been good for the public and i hope i hope and strong, strongly believe that it will continue so there you
4:23 am
go. not focused on the horse race, but yes, they are focused on slowing job growth and cooling inflation three big takeaways from this big fed meeting. >> first, they did go big this was a rip the band-aid off type move as one analyst put it this morning, they also there they're not done right there penciling in another half a point of rate cuts this year and another full point next year. the other point here is they really tried hard to emphasize that they're not scared that they don't see this as coming to the rescue moment for the jobs market at one point, powell, even said the labor market is in a strong place we want to keep it there now some economists are relieved that the fed is moving aggressively to address these cracks in the jobs market before they spread moody's economist mark zandi, he tweeted out that this big rate cut quote, all but cements and economic soft landing. >> and he added the fed, got policy right to death now as
4:24 am
far as what this means for everyone at home, first, it means the fed is serious about protecting the jobs market. >> they don't want the unemployment rate to rise. of course, it also means good news for borrowers if you're someone who is trying to get a mortgage right now, this does suggest that rates are going to continue to drip lower. same thing if you're someone who needs to refinance a mortgage, or perhaps you need to take out a home equity loan to pay for a major home improvement project. same thing for people who want a car loan, right now. big big help for everyone struggling to pay off credit card debt where you had record high interest rates this is also encouraging news for all those mom and pop shops on main street because yes, small business loans are going to get cheaper and don't forget small businesses are among the biggest job creators in this economy. so at the end of the day the fed is making clear that their mission has switched. it's gone from fighting inflation to fighting unemployment. and john, that
4:25 am
does mean lower interest rates. >> that's a big statement right there in and of itself, a way that the battle against inflation as it were this four-year battle is kind of over this new phase yeah, absolutely. >> that's what they're saying. i mean, look, we've seen a massive improvement in inflation. there was 9% inflation. gas prices were $5 a gallon, two plus years ago, all of that has improved dramatically. they're not declaring victory on inflation shouldn't yet, but they stopped just short of that and they've made clear the big focus right now is on the jobs market nodding great job explaining all this. thanks so much for being with us even if you're very far away and washington, it's much better having you stand right here and explain it all to us. thank you. i'll be back soon. >> good. travel safely. brand new polling from critical battleground states. one thing that remains clear everyone is watching pennsylvania and a new legal loss for sean combs. why a federal judge has decided he should not be free before his

4:31 am
polls for you? i'm talking about a slew of polls, a bevy of polls, a cornucopia of polling this morning seriously, if you wanted to bed last night? during there was not enough battleground polling like you woke up and it's a whole new world. harry enten is here to look at what it all means because it kind of tells a bit of a new story. harry, and i want to start with pennsylvania. >> i do. and you woke up, you had your dictionary on you when you went to bet last night. all right, so this isn't the keystone state? in pennsylvania. all these polls released in the last 24 hours, and we see a lot more blue than run on your screen. so quinnipiac yesterday plus five in pennsylvania for kamala harris, the new york times this morning, just out a four point lead for kamala harris franklin, and marshall in pennsylvania, a three-point margin, a little bit closer, and marris came out at midnight or 1201 came out with a tie. i will also note the washington post had a one-point advantage for kamala harris. so the bottom line is, there is a
4:32 am
range of results in the keystone state pennsylvania pennsylvania, pennsylvania. but it leans the leans into harris direction. not won one of these results, even within the margin navarro has trump ahead. >> all right, before we get to the leans with three l's leans, let's talk about some of these other battleground states. yeah, let's talk about michigan and wisconsin. >> alright, so marrows college, quinnipiac university, all coming out again within the last 24 hours? well, this is not such a hard slide to digest because the fact is they both it's found the same thing in both of the states. marris and quinnipiac in the state of michigan finding kamala harris up by one. and then in wisconsin, well, within the margin of error, but a one-point advantage in wisconsin. so the bottom line is at least in these two important states, these two posters find the same thing. >> harry, what do you like to do when we get a whole lot of polling at once? it's the best way to understand it what's the best way to understand it? >> well, i could throw a bunch of numbers that you like. i just did or we could average it all together and alright, so this has harris versus trump in
4:33 am
those great lake battleground states, we average it all together. this has all the september pulling not just the ones that i showed you. and what do we see in michigan? a four-point advantage? for kamala harris and pennsylvania, a two-point advantage, wisconsin, a two-point advantage. again, pretty gosh, darn close, but leaning in her direction. and john, you know me. what is this all mean for the electoral map? well, in the race to 200 electoral votes keep in mind kamala harris can win with just these northern battleground states, michigan, wisconsin, and pennsylvania. so if we lean all of those blue here, and even if we give donald trump, north carolina, georgia, arizona, and nevada, kamala harris gets to exactly 200 electoral votes. and based upon the polling averages at this particular point, though does close in those great lake battleground states, they do at this time lean a little bit more towards harris has direction than donald trump's direction. >> reiterate the polling right now, the trend lines show this story where she's doing maybe a little better than she was with a clear path to 27.
4:34 am
>> she has an absolutely clear path to 270. i would argue at this particular our this was the best polling for kamala harris arguably of the entire campaign because in the states that she needs to win, wisconsin, michigan, and pennsylvania, the average of the polls do in fact shower ahead and she doesn't need to win any of those southern battleground states if she wins those northern battleground states to get to exactly 270 electoral, right? >> explain that very well, harry thank you for getting a little earlier that a little bit earlier. appreciate. all right let us not talk about wake-up times, please. >> thank you so much. back to the playbook that is how the republican house speaker mike johnson put it as the latest republican measure to keep the government funded and avoid a shutdown failed, failed badly. here's what some republicans said after the vote i'm not part of this theater it's all just not part. i think that this is this is a complete failure of the speaker's strategy again, we weren't
4:35 am
here in the entire month of august. we could have finished our 12 separate appropriations we're not shutting the government down with 48 days to go in the election at the end of the day we're going to pass a cr to keep the government funded period at the end of the day, members like me support the continuity of government funding, government operations is the most basic job of congress. appropriations bill that's their job. they haven't done any of them this year and they're failing across the board right now? adding to house republicans problems as well, donald trump, who is now openly advocating for the government to shut down joining us right now, congressional reporter for the associated press, farnoush amiri. so the speaker says, they need to go back to the playbook what's the possible next play though? farnoush yeah. >> i mean, it's really unclear what johnson's plan b is. you know, if you talk to many republicans as me and my
4:36 am
colleagues did yesterday, many of them are not aware of what he's thinking, of what plan b is been you know, we've all seen this story before, especially with mike johnson. he has consistently had to go to democrats over and over again to be able to fund the government. and many republicans, moderate republicans, and democrats know that that's how the story is going to end this time. now, what, how painful he makes it between now and that you know, that that ending is unknown right now some of the tension is how people, how republicans are reacting to this this playbook, i guess, we'll call it, depends on how secure they are in their seat and what they're what the outlook is for the election. >> i say that because here's the tension you've heard mitch mcconnell's say it so many times. he says shutdowns. one or bad in two or bad politically for republicans gins always and he said, he said that again this time. on
4:37 am
the other side of this, you have donald trump basically advocating for a shutdown at this point yeah no. >> i mean, like this is consistently over the past decade, you have seen that whenever there has been a government shutdown, whether or not republicans were directly at fault for that reason. they have been the ones that the public sees as, as the culprits of why this shutdown happen in this case, it really thank turn out to be the truth. it johnson does not extend a hand to hakeem jeffries or to senate majority leader chuck schumer in the next ten days, he is going to be seeing a shutdown in 40 something days before his majority of stake and also his speakership is at stake so part of the tension is that save act that election measure that they, that they put in. there's also this tension between three months versus six months. what's the political play with that? >> yeah. so you know, the key
4:38 am
issues here are the length of any continuing resolution, whether it should go up until mid december as democrats and the white house is pushing for, because they believe that that will give them enough time to finish the remaining appropriation bills that the house has to pass in the senate has to pass so republicans want it to go to march. they are expecting donald trump to become the president united states and if things go their way, they are expecting to hold the majority and they want to be able to reevaluate how the government is funded. if, if you remember that it's been funded at nancy pelosi's speaker, nancy pelosi levels for the last two-and-a-half years? so republicans, every time they voted for a cr, they voted to certify nancy pelosi levels of funding, and that is obviously only vetted democrat who wants to maintain that level of funding. but the other really important thing here is defense hawks. they're pushing, they're saying the u.s. is involved in several is indirectly involved then several ongoing conflicts around the world. if we push it to six months, we will not be
4:39 am
able to get the kind of defense funding that our military may be, that we won't be able to reevaluate in time. it would be too long of a period and so there is a lot of dynamics at play here disabled least did you do it so well farnoush, thank you so much. >> good to see you. >> john. >> all right. with us now, senator tina smith, a democrat from minnesota, senator. nice to see you this morning. how do you feel about the possibility of a new government shutdown? >> well. it's great. to be with you. this is ridiculous, right? there's only one path forward for getting the government funded, and that is to do a short-term cr that gets us through to december with no poison pills and it has to be bipartisan. obviously, the speaker can't pass anything without democratic votes in the house. and that's the way it has to be in the senate as well. so we should just move on from this and get it done minute ago we talked about this new round of polling that came out this morning. >> a lot of it good news for
4:40 am
vice president harris, the democratic nominee. but there are some signs in there that things are not going as well as you should number one, in the times national poll, no shift really from before to after the debate. the debate didn't seem to move things for her in particular, in voters, did say that they wanted to see more from her. one quote from the article i wanted to see how she would answer questions at the debate, but i feel like she didn't really answer any of the questions she kind of just deflect it, didn't say tyler slaybaugh, 24 who works in medical sales and lives in grand haven, michigan, a battleground state he didn't vote in 2020, but plans on supporting mr. trump this year. i didn't really get a good understanding of like, what her plan was so how do you respond to that well, listen, i think the polls are going to go up and down. >> this is going to be a very close election, and that is why the vice president and governor walz are running like they're behind their running as hard as they can. and there's a path, a clear path to victory here. and honestly, i think if you watched the debate last week,
4:41 am
the contrast between vice president harris and donald trump could not have been more clear. she had stature. she was talking about the issues that matter to americans and he was talking about himself and spewing out all of these lies and conspiracy theories that i think just showed the kind of leader that he is. he's kind of a me first sort of a guy and meanwhile, she's talking about her ideas for how to move the country forward, will look people agree that she won and all of the polls people say that she won. >> the debate. but there is this separate question about whether she is telling them enough about herself and her plans. axios has a pretty fascinating chart out this morning about interview's done. bond either presidential ticket since harris-walz became the ticket here. and you can see trump's son, 14 j.d. vance has done 59 harris, three in your governor, tim walz used to come on tv all the time. only for since august. i guess the question is, how much more do you think they need to do? there's only 40 plus days
4:42 am
left. don't they need to be out there more oh my, goodness i mean, they're out there all the time. >> they're out there talking to voters all the time. and i think that the vice president has also said that she's going to be i'm talking to more reporters, both national as well as local reporters. and i think that's a good thing. but the thing to do now is to really make their case to the voters in this country. and that is exactly what they're doing. i believe she's in michigan today, governor walz has been traveling all over the place and making the case, telling the story about what they're going to do to lower costs for americans and put this country on a path where everyday people can be successful. so i think there's, i think we're going to be seeing a lot of them over the next. however many days it is 45. i can't keep track anymore. >> not a lot. >> center. >> what is social housing was so yesterday i announced with my colleague, alexandria ocasio-cortez a new bill with a new strategy for building affordable housing in this
4:43 am
country. do you know that in over 90% of american counties, most minimum wage workers can't afford even a modest one one-bedroom apartment the private market is not building the housing that we need. we have a severe housing shortage. so social housing is a way of building permanently affordable housing to meet the needs of middle-class americans and regular americans. i'm excited about this bill well, and think it's going to really give us a new way of thinking about how to address the severe housing shortage that we have in this country. >> is it public housing? what's the difference? >> so it would be funded through a public bank and then it would create affordable housing units as well as opportunities for home ownership. and instead of relying on the private market, which has a profit incentive, it would put, would be housing that is owned by public entities, could be non-profits, could it'd be state or local governments in minnesota, we have great examples of this through the co-operative movement, which we've had
4:44 am
around for a long time and coming community land trust that our owning the land under the home and keeping them keeping that home permanently affordable but allowing the people who own the home to build equity and be able to move forward. so it's exciting, i think to be able to think about a new way of doing this, this strategy is in us and many countries around the world and in minnesota, as well as in the bronx where representative of ocasio-cortez lives. so i think i'm excited to see where we can how we can push this forward. >> senator tina smith from minnesota thanks for being with us this morning right. >> so there's new information into cnn on foreign efforts to interfere, to try to interfere with the u.s. >> election. federal law enforcement officials now say iranian hackers not only stole information from donald trump's presidential campaign over the summer but also now adding that they sent it unsolicited to people associated with the biden campaign. law enforcement saying there's no indication the biden team ever did anything with the information
4:45 am
that detail, though, did not stop donald trump from leaning on conspiracy without evidence. >> but no ran hacked into my campaign. i don't know what the hell they found. i'd like to find out. >> couldn't have been too exciting. but they gave it to the biden campaign i can't believe it. >> yes, i can cnn's kaitlin polantz has much more on this. >> kaylin a lot still not known about this, but how did this play out? >> yeah kate there's a number of different things that are iranian cyber actors malicious cyber actors, some affiliated with the iranian government are linked to the iranian government. we're trying to do to sow discord in the american electorate. what happened over the summer was that they did get out access to emails or other documents related to the trump campaign. and then in june or july, what we're learning now is that they sent unsolicited emails to the biden
4:46 am
campaign or people affiliated with the biden campaign with some of that information as text in emails. so store bowen non-public information or material from former president donald trump's campaign. so that was what was being provided to the biden folks over the summer? that's from the new information from the intel community on wednesday, what the harris campaign now so taking over the floor biden campaign, what they're saying is that that material was not used and it was not spread by anyone and that they were not hacked either. the iranians in their other attempts to try and victimized or hack into the harris campaign or the biden campaign, folks, that that was unsuccessful in a statement, they say we have cooperated with the appropriate law enforcement authorities since we were made aware that individuals associated with the then-biden campaign were among the intended victims of this foreign influence operation. we condemn in the strongest terms,
4:47 am
any effort by foreign actors to interfere in us elections including this unwelcome and unacceptable malicious activity clearly the and attempted to take information out of the trump campaign and spread it potentially through people in politics, as well as journalist, that information hasn't truly gotten out there, kate. but make no mistake from the american voter to both campaigns are all victims of this because it's messing with the process and that's part of kind of like the entire conversation where it needs to be when it comes to foreign actors trying to get involved, influence and sway the american election. it's good to see you, kaitlan. thank you so much for your reporting as always. >> coming up still for us. kamala harris is making a return trip to battleground georgia this week after new reporting, new investigative reporting revealing for the first time, deaths deemed preventable after that state's restrictive abortion ban was put into place. and investigators think that they have found the body of the kentucky interstate shooting suspect. this is now 11 days

4:53 am
combs's attorney when he was arguing, say, why was your client contacting people who he knew? at a grand jury subpoena for testimony in june and july of this year, prosecutor said that combs did not been in touch with this person for years, so that was a real obstacle that combs's attorney could not overcome to make the judge comfortable. yeah. so focused on the video that cnn had obtained showing diddy kicking and dragging one of these women down the hall cuellar said that was right after one of these alleged freak off parties that are the heart of the sex-trafficking case. combs's attorneys have minimized that. the judge turned to that several times, pointing to the physical violence in that it was the combination of the violence and the witness tampering that he had a real problem with. prosecutors also had told the judge that did he is influence has made it difficult for witnesses to talk to the prosecution because they are concerned that the government can't keep them safe. now they said they have talked to 50 witnesses and victims as part of this case, but that that has
4:54 am
been a concern. but diddy's attorney says that they're going to continue to fight this, that he's going to appeal he's going to try to get him at least transferred out of this federal jail in brooklyn to a county jail, new jersey. the judge was skeptical of that, but we'll see how this plays out. all right. kara scannell, great to see you. thank you very much. good reporting on this as always right. new this morning, a new report finds the us comes in last in health care compared to none i'm other high-income countries. the u.s had higher death rates and lower life expectancy even though americans spend nearly twice as much on health care australia, the netherlands in the uk, ranked in the top three this morning. an urgent manhunt and kentucky has ended after 12 days. a local couple as they found the body of the suspected shooter who opened fire on a busy highway, injuring five people. fred mccoy and his wife, sheila, were led to the body. they say by a flock of vultures it was about 50 and we started put our boots on your star over the heel and got way

the fight over reproductive rights in this week, while on the campaign trail and highlighting some original reporting coming from propublica that at least two women in georgia died just two weeks after the state's six-week abortion ban. and went into effect in 2022. the reporting is talking about these women, amber thurman, candi miller, denied life-saving care that they needed and it ended in tragedy as propublica reports, this thurman's case marks the first time thurman's case marks the first time that i want to make sure i get this. all right? thurman's case marks the first time in abortion-related death officially deemed preventable is coming to public light. kamala harris tweeting about the deaths and blaming donald trump, saying, in part, quote, a young mother from georgia should be alive today raising her son and pursuing her dream of attending nursing school.
4:57 am
this is exactly what we she says feared when roe versus wade was struck down in more than 20 states, trump abortion bans prevent doctors from providing basic medical care. let's talk about this reporting that's driving the conversation right now is iva brands center is joining us. she's he's the senior editor editor for propublica. these reports are gut wrenching. the reporting, the detail, the sourcing, deeply sourced in research cba, one of the things that hits you when you read through this is the horrible pain that these women suffered. in their final days tell us about amber thurman and candi miller and how your team came upon their stories much for having us to talk about this important reporting by kavita serrano's the reporter on this project we have been looking at propublica for the harm that is created by
4:58 am
extreme abortion bans. and to ensure we're doing our jobs. and we uncovered two cases through this to reporting of women whose deaths were ruled preventable by the state's maternal mortality board committee. both of these deaths occurred in the months after roe v. wade was struck down and georgia's abortion, six-week abortion ban passed both woman suffered a very rare complication from abortion medication that is easily treatable. one woman waited for for 20 hours. this has amara thurman for treatment at a hospital there atlanta doctors did not operate we don't know what was going through their minds in the second case, candi miller family literally told the corner that she was afraid because of the state's abortion ban to seek care the maternal mortality committee ruled that that case was also preventable and directly connected it to the state's abortion ban i see in the article that a spokesperson for the republican governor brian kemp called the reporting labeled as a fearmongering campaign talk to
4:59 am
me about that well, i just think it's ironic. they also use that word fear fear-mongering two weeks before amara thurman died when advocates doctors went to court to stop the state's abortion ban and said women would suffer, women would die. they said that's fearmongering bring to two weeks later and then died i also think it's ironic that this is a state board that rolled both deaths are preventable that answers to ultimately, the governor that's exactly right. >> and that's where some of the sourcing is coming from that you guys as you dug into it and i want to read one paragraph from your reporting on amber thurman, that gets to it's like an additional additional pain that is brought upon this family even beyond her death, which is this for you? there's all thurman's family had was a death certificate that said she died of septic shock and retained products of conception, a rare description that had previously only appeared once in georgia
5:00 am
death records over the last 15 years, propublica found the family learned thurman's case had been reviewed and deemed preventable from propublica is reporting her family? no idea? correct. she has a young son. would now who's lost his mother. she would have turned as you guys point out, 31-years-old just recently? that's gutting correct it is. >> it's it's very difficult you know, to grapple with the faces of the harm here. these are two women who are mothers, candi miller had three children. he died in bed with her three-year-old with her amara thurman has for year-old son that now family members are raising the maternal mortality rate in georgia is among the highest in the nation, three times higher for collar how many other stories like this do you think are out there don't really know. >> we we all we have to go buy
