2:02 am
sources say mark robinson, the states trump endorsed republican candidate for governor, hasn't been invited to the event robinson is facing backlash after a cnn kfile investigation found his years old offensive posts on the message board of a pornographic website. the harris campaign and democrats in the tar heel state are seizing the controversy, working to link robinson and trump with trump with billboards like these. robinson was already trailing his challenger by ten points as of early september scannell could impact north carolina's presidential vote. republicans fear the scandal will help harris make a play for a state, but hasn't gone for democrats since brock obama in 2008. so far, republicans are standing by the lieutenant governor, but not leaves democrats free to use the scandal as political ammunition against both robinson and trump cnn's dianne gallagher has more things fallout from cnn's bombshell
2:03 am
report about lieutenant governor mark robinson spilling over into a second day. >> i am running for governor. >> the gop nominee for north carolina's governor, moving forward with his campaign after the deadline passed for him to withdraw. as absentee ballots are sent out to voters friday, the fresh swirl of controversy follows a cnn kfile investigation that found robinson made a series of inflammatory comments on a pornographic website's message board, more than a decade ago, referring to himself as a black nazi, an expressing support for reinstating slavery, among other salacious, lewd and gratuitous statements. >> thank you so much for robinson categorically denying the allegations. do this is not us. these are not our words, and this is not anything that is characteristic of me, but the controversy extending beyond the tar heel states race for governor with robinson having received the endorsement of former president donald trump, who has repeatedly praised the conservative firebrand. >> this is martin luther king
2:04 am
on steroids, okay, the campaign of vice president kamala harris, highlighting the ties between trump and robinson in a new ad friday to pass a bill. >> so you can have abortion in north carolina for any risks abortion in this country, it's about chairman, child because you are responsible enough to keep your skirt down. >> i've been with them a lot i've gotten to know him and his outstanding the former president is set to hold a rally in the battleground state on saturday, sources tell cnn robinson has not been invited to the event despite being a regular presence at trump's events in the state, including two last month while some trump allies are dismissing the potential impact on the former president's campaign will be fine. north carolina, but this issue is going to come and go. but the reality of what's happened in our country remains and that's why donald trump's going to win the state of north carolina as democrats in north carolina seek to turn robinson's controversy into a challenge for other republicans. >> i think that when people go to the polls, they need to think about these candidates
2:05 am
who had supported and encouraged somebody like mark robinson and continue to do so. >> now, democrats across the state of north carolina, taking advantage of this nearly every statewide candidate down through the balance well, it has posted a photograph that the republican opponent has taken with robinson or touted an endorsement, even just kind of comments about the lieutenant governor. there was a fundraiser that was scheduled for mark robinson featuring the chair of the republican governors association, tennessee governor bill lee, will a source familiar tells cnn that is no longer taking place. and governor bill lee is not coming to north carolina dianne gallagher, cnn back to you a little leak is a senior regional reporter for blue ridge public radio out of north carolina, and she joins me now from atlanta. thanks so much for being here with us. so you're you're normally based in north carolina, the state as
2:06 am
you well know, hasn't been very kind to democratic presidential candidates. as we heard they're, democrats are hopeful and even some republicans are fearful that this scandal could make all the difference how big a factor do you think it could be at the top of the ticket the top of the ticket is really what drives elections, is what we've all come to understand. >> and so for former president trump, not having someone that he feel that he wants to be associated with potentially at the top of the ticket, is a really big deal in 20 20 former president trump only won north carolina by just over 1%. so this is a really big issue in north carolina democrats, as we heard, are trying to tie trump to robinson trump will be there in north carolina today. >> are you expecting him to address the scandal head-on and more importantly, will it matter? is it already too late
2:07 am
yeah. >> i mean, robinson is still going to be on the ticket, so that ship has already sailed. it'll be really interesting to see if this makes republicans less excited to turn out to the ballot box. >> but on the opposite end of the spectrum this could really drive democrats who don't want to see robinson as in office to come out to the polls so in that sense, i think it's really important i'm not sure how president trump will react. >> former president trump, but i don't want to make any predictions hard to, hard to guess at the best of times. >> but listen, let's, let's go to robinson because you've covered him for some time. were there any whispers of issues like these before now? >> yeah. i mean, he really came out of nowhere in 2018 with this speech around gun rights at a greensboro city council meeting. and was really
2:08 am
attractive candidate in 2020, i covered him at some back the blue rallies and western north carolina and has just been able to be so charismatic, i think for the republican party during 2020 at a time when i think it was exciting for them to hear from the first black lieutenant governor and currently so he identifies as an evangelical's christian. >> do you think that these allegations well hurt him, especially with that group yeah. i've covered him at a faith and freedom coalition rallies recently this year, and he really came out, this was at a church in western north carolina and talks about his evangelical beliefs and a lot of the things that are reflected in these posts and these these allegations are very much not aligned with the morality of the evangelical movement. i think it's really important to say that the comments that he's made about
2:09 am
or that the allegations have made about being potentially a black man nazi, but also just kind of being pro slavery. i think across the world, everyone has come together and said that that's not okay and i think i'm really interested to see how that lands with evangelical voters. >> yeah, and donald from calling him martin luther for king on steroids certainly raised a lot elbow, lot of eyebrows if we broaden this out a little bit, even before the scandal, democrats had poured millions into the state and advertising sensing that despite their poor history there, that it might actually be winnable. did you get a sense of a change? changing political landscape after biden dropped out yeah, absolutely. >> i would say there's been just a lot more excitement in the state or from democrats at the local level we just had the
2:10 am
governor tim walz and asheville and there was a lot of excitement around that and it just feels like the candidates are in north carolina every week now. this is a really important state for him to win its 16 electoral votes and i think it feels very much like it's an option for democrats yeah. >> and one of our analysts was saying that if if harris were to win north carolina the chances of winning the election will be like something like 96%. so clearly, vital for democrats and for republicans as well we'll have to leave it there at lilly thank you so much for being here with us. really appreciate it thank you well, harris campaigned friday in the battleground, state of wisconsin. she painted trump as a quote unserious man while hitting him on a number of policy issues, including his economic plan. while in the badger state, the democratic nominee why did some plans of
2:11 am
her own here she is right now on the affordable housing issue. >> look, we have a shortage of housing in america and it's contributing to driving up prices. so with my plan, we are going to cut red tape and work with the private sector to build 3 million new homes by the end of my first term. >> earlier friday, harris railed against trump's position on reproductive rights while campaigning here in georgia republican abortion restrictions have reportedly contributed to several deaths in the state. cnn's priscilla alvarez has the story vice president kamala harris delivering an impassioned address here in atlanta, georgia on friday on an issue that has been top of mind for her campaign because it's also been top of mind for voters. >> and that is on reproductive rights the vice president, taking a detour to come to the battleground state before heading to wisconsin, a trip that sources tell me was planned immediately at the direction of the vice president
2:12 am
after a media report that revealed that two deaths were linked to the state's abortion restrictions. now, the remarks by the vice president and we're met with a somber audience. there was an emotional heaviness to the room as she spoke about the risks of st. abortion restrictions with signs behind her that call well, them the trump abortion bans a phrase that she coined back in arizona. now the vice president going on to say that this election is a fight for freedom she also talked about republicans being hypocrites. take a listen one in three, women in america lives in a state with a trump abortion ban this includes georgia and every state in the south, except virginia. >> think about that when you compound that with what has been longstanding neglect of women in communities with a lack of adequate resources they need for health care prenatal
2:13 am
during their pregnancy, postpartum think about that. these hypocrites want to start talking about this is in the best interest of women and children who have been comes to taking care of the women and children of america now at one point during her address, she also said that they, the audience should say the name of one of the women's who was mentioned in this media report dying from a treatable infection it was a moment to address the situation at large and that being the vice president, her campaign has discussed as the threat against reproductive rights. >> this is an issue that the vice president and her team are consistently talking about running ads in battleground states. and of course, one, that she will continue to be hammering over the course of the next few weeks, hoping that it mobilizes voters to the

2:19 am
densely populated neighborhood on friday afternoon collapsing the building and shaking others nearby. israel's military says aqil was hiding underground, blow the building lin using civilians as human shields. all right. i want to go live now to london and cnn's jomana karadsheh. so jomana, hezbollah has warned they will retaliate, take us through what they're saying. >> well, i kim, we have to start with this update that we've gotten in the past hour or from the lebanese health ministry that strike in southern beirut suburbs in dahiyeh on that residential building that killed ibrahim aqil, the top hezbollah commander and 15 other members of hezbollah, including a senior commander, also killed and injured many civilians, as had been feared. this is one of the most densely populated areas of lebanon and fears have been that civilians will be among the casualties. and this is what we are hearing the health minister saying that at least seven women are among
2:20 am
those killed three children aged 46 and ten as well. and this is not over. they are continuing to dig through the rubble. they have pulled they say, body parts on identifiable body parts, there are still people including children who are unaccounted for. so this is not over, this is not only a severe blow to hezbollah, this is absolutely devastating for lebanon and for the lebanese people as well. a country that has gone through so much over the past few years. and now there is this real fear and apprehension in the country. people are very concerned about where this is all hat i did what is going to come next for the past year, almost they have been involved in this mid level intensity conflict that has been mostly confined to the border area, but now we are seeing this move to a whole new phase. a very dangerous one that has moved this conflict clearly to the lebanese
2:21 am
capital. the big question is, as you mentioned, what is hezbollah going to do? those who know the groups say that it has been backed into a corner? severe blow after severe blow with these attacks over the past few days in beirut and it is going to have to respond. and it's going to have to respond forcefully. but at the same time, hezbollah has been very cautious. it has not wanted to escalate this into a wider conflict. so it would have to be a calibrated response. so we'll have to wait and see what that looks like. what is going to do. and of course, there's questions about its capabilities at this point. you know, if you look at what has happened over the past few days, this has had a considerable impact likely on the group. so how fast it is going to respond, what form that response is going to take also a question and a major question in all of this, kim is what is israel doing here? is this trying to send warnings to
2:22 am
hezbollah using this military pressure to achieve a goal that the israelis have stated again this week saying that this is one of their main goals right now oh that is to restore security to its northern region, to return the 60 to 70,000 people who have been displaced from that area over the past year. and how is it going to do that? is this the prelude to a more to a major offensive? this is all yet to be seen, but no matter what way you look at this, kim, we are entering a very, very dangerous phase right now. and the next few hours and days are very critical. >> know absolutely. all right. jomana karadsheh in london. thanks so much us soldier who ran across the border into north korea last year is free after being sentenced to one year in confinement and dishonorable discharge private travis king was given credit for good behavior and time served. king pleaded guilty in a court martial to charges so of desertion, assault, and

2:25 am
but you know, kim jong un killed his own uncle. >> that executions sent chills through the north korean elite, made up of top party officials, diplomats, and senior officers kim's own uncle, jang song-thaek, was the second most powerful man in north korea. south korea is unification ministry says only around 50 elite north koreans fled under kim's father. that number has almost tripled under kim jong, un coinciding with his crackdown on corrupt officials, also the reason for the elite defections is that north korea, there's fewer benefits for the elite now. >> secondly, it's no secret that north korea has a lot of problems problems. and thirdly, there's no hope among the young people late last year a high ranking north korean diplomat defected from cuba. >> south korea's foreign ministry says, north korea has been closing consulates, embassies, and offices around the world. the number of elite defections is rising even as overall all defections are down

2:30 am
was endorsed by trump, hasn't been asked to attend the event later today. he's facing backlash over offensive posts left on a pornographic website before he was lieutenant governor. meanwhile, kamala harris blasted trump over his position on reproductive rights on friday or campaign stop in atlanta was added after media reports linked the death of two georgia women to republican abortion restrictions, her running mate, tim walz and republican vice presidential nominee, j.d. vance will campaign in pennsylvania later. here today. harris also campaigned in another battleground state on friday in wisconsin, she warned that a second trump presidency could have serious consequences. she also said she believes the presidential election will be close wisconsin senator tammy baldwin spoke to cnn about what she thinks harris has to do to win the crucial state here she is you got to show up in red parts of the state, purple parts of the state, and blue parts of the state. >> and she has to continue to make the contrast between what
2:31 am
she's running on, what she is about and what donald trump is pushing on our fundamental freedoms. we have such a star contrast and she needs to continue to come to these swing states, these battleground states like wisconsin, and make the case and make the clear contrast as we mentioned, harris was also campaigning here in georgia. another key battleground state, the state's election board, which is controlled by donald trump's allies has approved a controversial new rule, despite bipartisan objections. and it requires ballots cast on election day to be hand-counted. who ensure the number of matches the tally from voting machines? we have more now from cnn's sara murray three people are all pit bulls fighting for honestly transparency and victory there, fighting those three republicans on the georgia state election board, who donald trump praised at a campaign rally last month, charging ahead with a controversial new rule about
2:32 am
hand counting ballots. so this leaves us in a very difficult position. do we maintain the status quo because it's easier or do we make a few adjustments so that we can be better, but it's not better for many bipartisan election officials across the state who begged the board to pause a new rules ahead of november. >> the idea that you're not going to listen to the individuals there are charged with conduct an elections is absurd to me, state officials from republican secretary of state brad raffensberger to attorney general chris carr issued sharp warnings. thanks. several of the doesn't rule was the board is considering may run afoul of the law we're too close to the electorate. >> in fact, we're really just three weeks before we start early voting. and it's just too late in the cycle, the new role does doesn't help determine a winner. rather, it requires a hand count of the number of ballots at polling places on election day. and then comparing the number of ballots cast with the number recorded by voting machines. critics say it's a recipe for chaos. if i were to hand this stack of paper to three random people in this room, especially at the
2:33 am
end of a long voting day asked them to arrive at the same total number do we think that's feasible? people doing a hand-count are going to make mistakes which can then be exploited to spread lies. >> raffensperger says the change jaynes could delay reporting results on election night, you start breaking up the ballot boxes after you closed precinct you won't be getting those election day votes until maybe 1:00, 2:00 4:00 in the morning. and we just don't believe that's healthy for the republic and we don't think it's healthy for people of georgia, the three trump-backed republicans pass the rule. anyway mission passes three to, to the independent chairman of the five-member board if there's more votes to implement this rule i think that we put ourselves in legal jeopardy. >> and this new rule is almost certainly going to face legal challenges. and to that end, georgia secretary of state brad raffensperger put out a statement after the meeting saying attorney general chris carr has stated that these rules would not withstand a legal challenge, and i have worked every day to strengthen georgia's election law to ensure our elections remain
2:34 am
safe, secure, and free. so it's just a question at this point of where these legal challenges are going to come from. sara murray, cnn, washington tony governor of georgia, geoff duncan was one of the republicans who spoke at the democratic national convention. >> he weighed in on the new election board rules in his state today they injected the ultimate asterisk mark into our november election. they are able to change laws to follow conspiracy theories instead of reality and it's unfortunate, i once again call on republican leadership from every corner of this state, county, city, state legislative, even the governor's office to call on this as loud as absolute possible that this is a horrendous idea. and it usurps democracy and its ultimate format the. earliest date the new rule could take effect is october 14th, just 22 days before the november election all right. >> well, here's just another indication of just how tight
2:35 am
this race has become. donald trump and his republican allies are trying to change an election law in nebraska, hoping it'll save him potentially one electoral seat now the state awards electoral votes by congressional district. unlike most states which are winner take all the former president won all five of nebraska's electoral votes in 2016, but lost the omaha area district to joe biden in 2020. trump phoned into a meeting with some of nebraska's republican lawmakers and the republican governor, jim pillen this week describing law as unfair according to one official, governor pillen has said that he would convene a special session before the november election to try to change the law, but only if there's enough support for the vote the arizona supreme court ruled on friday that nearly 100,000 people who may not have fully met the seats. proof of citizenship test can still vote. the court was asked whether they should get a federal only or a full ballot and the answer was for arizona uses separate balance because
2:36 am
it requires all voters to prove citizens and chip for state and local races. the same documentation isn't a federal requirements, so they'd be able to vote in the presidential election regardless, the decision is a victory for arizona's democratic secretary of state us secret service says, it breached its own protocols during the assassination attempt on donald trump in pennsylvania. the former president's ear was grazed by a bullet while he was speaking at a rally in butler in july, a new report says there were serious communication failures between the secret service and local law enforcement at the site because of that, trump's security detail didn't get a warning about the would-be assassin. even after he was spotted by local officers, the acting secret service chief. now says those responsible will face disciplinary action while some members of the advanced team we're very diligent there was complacency on the part of others that led to a breach of security protocols.

>> these employees will be held accountable this agency has among the most robust table of penalties and the entirety of the federal government on friday, house lawmakers unanimously adopted a bill bolstering secret service protection for major presidential and vice presidential candidates. >> the legislation is now headed to the senate it's been just over two weeks since four people were killed in a mass shooting at apalachee high school in winder, georgia. the final funeral was held on friday for 14-year-old christian angulo, one of two students killed in the mass shooting the parents of mason schermerhorn, the other student victim, were also in attendance at friday's funeral mass. a friend of the family spoke to cnn shortly after the service on what it meant to lose christian he always put that debt smile on somebody's face in their down all the words that the bishop said in the service was completely true. i mean, he was just blessed with

three meters of sea level rise with devastating effects for humanity last hour i spoke with robert larter of the british antarctic survey to find out more i understand you sent this sort of torpedo-shaped robot to get a look at what you've just been talking about that most vulnerable part of the glacier, it's under her belly, so how did you go about doing it okay. >> so there's a range of different devices have been used. the one i think you're talking about is one that was designed to be put down a bore hole drilled through the floating extension the glacier. so these glaciers, they continue out into the sea and they have large floating extension. and the world underneath. >> the floating extension. >> but the cavity under there, these are some of the most inaccessible places on the planet so what has been done is
2:43 am
people have designed robotic submersibles that can go into this space because it's clearly, it's a space that's very dangerous. you don't want to send crude submersible's into that in these instruments was used to enable it's to go down a bore hole less than only about a foot across with a conducting fiber-optic cable, so that the scientists could communicate with it and get data back from it. really find out what was happening, right we're at the point where the glacier goes or floats. >> alright, so let's talk about what is happening. you've published your results and i guess there's good news and bad news. so the good news, as i understand it, there were fears that if this were to collapse, it would sort of start a chain reaction of ice cliffs collapsing that would basically the pilot catastrophe
2:44 am
upon catastrophe, it sounds as though that isn't likely to. did i explain that right yes. that's what the latest published research say's that? there were some work results of one of the studies was published just a few weeks ago, saying exactly that. but to the best, the best they can it can be modeled at the moment they don't expect a runaway collapse to be initiated if we get to the condition where we have very tall ice cliffs, the principle here is that if this is something all engineers know, if you pile any material high enough the vertical face you get to a point at which it fails and cracks and collapses, and the ice is just in that respect, isis is behaves in an analogous way to concrete and rob larter went on to say that whatever could be done to slow the collapse of the glacier and it's doomsday potential would certainly be beneficial all right, we have new images just

coming into cnn. >> this was the scene in wajima, japan, the flooding you see his lead officials to issue the highest level of emergency rain warning for ishikawa prefecture on honshu island. according to japan's state broadcaster, 11 rivers in ishikawa have flooded and mudslides and alerts have also been issued throughout the island for workers are missing as well. japan's chief cabinet secretary told reporters that the government is working closely with local municipalities on evacuation support. heavy rain is expected to fall across large parts of japan over the next 24 hours what's the move that could change how the u.s. approaches clean energy projects are coal-fired power plant in minnesota will soon shot down and reopen using solar and wind energy. experts say the plan to repurpose the plans, existing infrastructure could supercharge the push for renewable energy. cnn's chief climate the correspondent bill weir has the story behold, a

about six years, it'll be all gone the smokestacks will be obsolete but this fossil of a different age will remain a valuable part of the community. >> pushing out clean energy from wind farms and solar fields, all all around the state. but this is also a model for the rest of the country. a study out of cal berkeley found that the us could double its power capacity by building new energy. next the old infrastructure minnesota for economic reasons, was already moving to phase out coal. but what the inflation reduction act did through its tax credits is give extra incentives for when you phase out a plan to fossil fuel plant, to build something new right? there and use the bones us and the connection she, you use the site is actually being used. but the more important thing is you're using an existing way to connect to the electric grid. >> minnesota recently completed a transmission upgrade, but lines are already strained by
2:48 am
all the new supply and demand so like a fast pass at disneyland, this method allows clean energy projects to skip the years long wait for grid connection while making the shift a lot less jarring for local communities. what does that mean for workers? can the same people who are now working in coal? i'm over and work in sunlight. >> well, some of them can, so we've got about 240 workers at the plant. and what we have told them is, if you want a job with xcel energy after that plant retires, you'll have a job with xcel energy. >> would this have happened without the tim walz administration and their targets would have happened without the inflation reduction act that joe biden yeah. >> so the walls administration that's been really great to work with the ira benefits have been really significant for our customers that helps us move through this transition while bringing customer bills down compared to what they otherwise would be. we're extracting about 300 million of ira benefits for our customers with this project alone, he says their customers will eventually reap billions in tax incentives as excel winds down dozens of fossil fuel plants, all part of
