busters that it's very likely that the death toll will rise dramatically in the coming hours. >> but of course, on the scene, there are rescue teams digging desperately in the rubble to find out if there's anybody left alive. >> or ben wedeman has our say to you, stay safe over there. thanks very much. and to our viewers. thanks very much for watching. i'm wolf blitzer in the situation room erin burnett, outfront starts right now

rescue of a florida man and his dog the officer who pulled off that rescue is outfront with new video of what happened and more breaking news this hour, new strikes in beirut as is as it targeted the head of hezbollah. >> iran warning is israel and claiming the u.s. is complicit. let's go outfront evening. >> i'm erin burnett outfront tonight. the breaking news. kamala harris at the border, the vice president about to give a major speech on an issue that she's trying to take head-on. harris is gaining on trump in multiple national polls when it comes to the border and immigration the polls, the trip, the optics today all have trump clearly worried she didn't go there for four years now, today, she shows up. >> i don't know. maybe she's already gotten i doubt it, but

she's went to the border today. she wants to save him. she could salvage make up some lies this is an issue trump has been hammering harris on since she entered the race she never went to the border and she was a horrible borders are are only job was the border and she'd never went there. she never went there once >> she did go there once he could give her that because it's not much more than zero, but it is the second trip that is clearly irking trump although it was not the only thing on his mind today. >> i'm proud to say. i think i'm the only politician that's lost. i've lost billions on. i don't give a damn. i knew i'd lose a lot. i didn't know i was going to lose that bucs i wanted to lose. i could have made a fortunate now, of course, trump is on the hook for hundreds of millions of dollars in legal penalties as a convicted felon. >> and he has lost a lot of money on his businesses, but he is making a fortune by any normal human standard right now. he is in fact now selling

watches at $100,000 each now, just to be clear, in case this distinction matters, these watches are being sold for personal profit, not for his campaign. we looked up the disclaimer on the brand new trump watches website and it says, quote, these watches are not political and have nothing to do with any political campaign and for those who can afford $100,000 for an 18 carat gold diamond encrusted watch that says it is suisse made. there are other options. trump is also selling less expensive watches for 799 or at the lowest price, $0.499 i guess what this is not the first thing he has sold during his campaign. he has sold $499 gold sneakers. he sold $99 digital trading cards. now the digital trading cards or interesting because they've been up there for a while. so we know from his disclosures that he made $7.2 million off of those digital trading cards alone we do not know how much he made from the bibles he sold because yes, he did sell bibles for

$59.99 which come emblazoned with the words god bless the usa. and of course that picture of trump on the website. >> all of those items sold just to be clear, we check the disclaimers were sold to benefit trump not to raise money for the campaign it's something he's not shy about this is the trump brand trump watches, trump coins, trump at the digital trading cards, trump steaks, trump university, trump, again well priscilla alvarez is outfront in douglas, arizona. that is what trump will be watching and everyone will be watching extremely closely right now because the vice president kamala harris is scheduled to speak where you are, priscilla, just a few moments. and i know you're learning new information about what she is expected to say tonight. this is a very important address at whais she going to say well, notably, erin, as she plans to go further than president joe biden on the issue of border security. >> i'm told by a senior campaign official that she plans to embrace president joe

biden's asylum crackdown from earlier this summer. but then also go further. and by the i mean, she wants to set the threshold for when these restrictions lift higher and harder to lift. so essentially this restriction that's been in place she would make it tougher for that to be lifted in the future. so these are the types proposals that we anticipate to hear more of from the vice president as she makes her pitch the key is tougher on border security, and not only compared to former president donald trump, but also compared to president biden. of course, this has been an administration and that has wrestled with multiple border crises and record numbers of migrants crossing the u.s.-mexico border. but over recent months, that number has plummeted after that crackdown that i mentioned that happened over the summer. now advisers to the vice president are still concerned about the gap that they see an immigration polling, but they tell me they see an opportunity here to sort to close the gap there reason for that is

because recent polling has shown that the former president's lead has started to erode on the issue what going up against the vice president compared to president joe biden. and so this is what they are trying to close further. now, the vice president today is also going to needle former president donald trump over the bipartisan border measure that was tanked by him. and republicans saying that no one wants a president quote, playing political games now the vice president, in addition today has been on the u.s.-mexico border. she's receiving a briefing from border authorities and we'll bring that message also here later this evening. evening as again, she tries to get an edge on this issue also, in a battleground state of arizona, are priscilla. >> thank you very much as we are awaiting the vice president's remarks, which will take live. obviously this is an important policy moment in the campaign. everyone's here with me now and instead, kamala harris, just before, so she's about to speak here and we do expect that in a few moments, but she did just speak to the cameras. let me play what she said

they were well-known hours that very dedicated and some hair talking to them about what we can continue to do to support them and to also thank them, feel heartburn that for action. so that fits with what priscilla said, that she is going to she's supportive of the customs and border patrol, that she's going to be tougher on asylum, then the policies. and here's where this is the twist. the policies of the administration of which she is the vice president, right does that work i think this is what obviously democrats play is if we think about the kind of three main issues in this race the economy, abortion, and immigration. >> democrats understand that immigration is the one they are weakest on as donald trump's most offensive issue is what he wants this election to be about and so you have kamala harris on the defensive coming into this, but they see us as increasingly an opportunity where they can basically play to a draw after the debate, where she really able to needle donald trump specifically from

what she outlined earlier, priscilla outlined that trump was the one who blew up that bipartisan border bill. you have come here, was leaning more and more into it and i find it very interesting that this is the place where she decides to break with the administration and say, i will be even tougher. i think that's a recognition of some of the, of where immigration is for a lot of undecided voters. and i think this is her going back to the law enforcement brand we saw before. the presidential run in 2019. i think this is somewhat interesting though, because when we think back to where democrats were four years ago, they weren't really saying what they wanted to do on immigration and the border. they were basically just saying what donald trump is doing is discriminatory with donald trump is doing is wrong. now, we have them kind of emitting a little bit that there is an issue that needs to be solved even if they're saying that our solutions are better than his. i think the only question here is, as they elevate the border as an issue, as an issue for this race. does that really entice voters to go to them over trump? if you're a voter who thinks that immigration is the most important issue? isn't donald trump the one who's made that most central? that's the kind of game that

they're playing. they want to acknowledge the problem. there's simply just trying to offer themselves as the solution. >> so all right. so ashley donald trump tonight meanwhile is repeating as he often has when he attacks harris on immigration and migrants who have entered the country, he is talking about some of the worst things that have happened here. he is they come up, they grab young girls and they slice them up right in front of their parents to let our american sons and daughters be raped and murdered that the hands of vicious bonds she led american communities. >> be conquered i mean, you know, at best, brutal words, despite how trump phrases it though there are horrible stories that we have all heard about laken riley in georgia, of course, is one of them. >> does trump talking like that resonate with voters specifically? anyone undecided yeah. >> i mean i mean the voters that matter most at this stage of the game is definitely those

one to 2% undecided voters, those disaffected republicans who don't want to go back to donald trump. >> so they matter most. i don't think that those types of messages really resonated with him. i think they fall on deaf ear, you know, i would like to take a step back if you don't mind that what the vice president i was on your show when she did the georgia rally and i remember pointing out to you the first topic she leaned into was immigration. she has consistently been leaning into both immigration and the economy and it's, and it's having positive is it a correlations with the polls she's closing the gaps with donald trump on each one of these issues. she's really defying what democrats typically do on these issues. we typically don't lean in as she is and it's actually working the strategies working. there's it's not without risk her going down to the border is not without risk because it does give them the opportunity to make this point that she's only been one other time but the point is you've got to run that risk to just peel off some of these voters. and i think she's actually doing that. she's demonstrating not just that she's presidential,

she's also reinforcing her credentials as a former ag on a border state. she's also really spotlighting the point. hopefully she does is later today spotlighting the point that donald trump is is the problem. there was a bill, democrats and republicans came together on a bill which hardly ever happens in washington. he stood in the way of it. i would also add though, if you don't mind, erin, that he's been a total disaster on the border, the wall that he said he built is not even erected. mexico, i still haven't seen any receipts for them paying for it. i think she's also going to lean into the point that he has no credibility on the issue of the border, right? >> i mean, while some of the wall was erected, part of it using harris add as k-file had found david, let me ask you though about the point that ashley just made about how she doesn't need to win on the issue she needs to just close the margin on some people and we've seen that in the polling, ashley has a point in arizona don't know what harris is tonight. trump against trump. i mean, i'm sorry, against biden. trump was up 20 points on immigration against harris. he's up by 15 in an

election this close, you know, all you got to do is you don't have to win it. you just got to narrow that gap and it appears that she is doing that yeah. >> i don't listen. i'm not going to live or die over polls are a snapshot poll so the trend has been terrible on immigration and who do you trust in the border for the current vice president? the sun, you know, when the last time she was with the border was erin nobody can remember. it was over three years ago if she really cared about the border, but why she's she's doing a little better in the polling is what i just pointed out. >> erin and nbc at the latest, nbc poll has, which is about a week old hazard down 21 points to trump on the border and immigration. her going to the border just reminds people that she entered run for president in 2021, took the position on having immigrants who crossed the border illegally, not prosecuted legally. she said, i want to criminalize that. i want to lessen the money for border agents. cbp. so when

she's going there and saying, i want to get tougher for just get on a plane and go back to washington, go into your office and the oeo be where you're the current vice president and get tougher today. she doesn't need to wait for until january 20. she's in the job as you pointed out, it's hard to it's hard to run against the administration that you're a part of. and that's what she's trying to do. and it 40 days out, voters aren't buying it okay? >> i said, i mean, what he's going to add is that she actually go ahead and said then actually jump in i'll just say that what he's pointing out, this is a true transition for democrats where they were four years ago on this is not where the party is now. >> there adds up my point. there has been a concession of the importance of the issue and what harris is trying to do is again, to slow down that margin. but i would say that they had not created a vision of what immigration system would look like. and harris hasn't done so even again now. and so i don't think i don't think they're trying to really get it to a 50 place, even if we take a thing like arizona, there's an abortion referendum on the ballot in november to

some of what democrats are going to do trying to defend on this issue. but some of what they're going to try to do is deflect and make sure other issues become more of a priority for voters. that i agree with any of that, but i appreciate the effort. >> but i want to get back to the point that was made earlier. is she she actually has gotten tougher. the administration has gotten over from where they were when they came into the administration. the first proposal that they offered to congress was a comprehensive proposal on immigration since then, they've gotten tough. the republicans walked away from the bill. they implemented increased security at the border. border crossings are down 40%. they're lower than they were under donald trump so there is signs which she went back into the white house and got tougher on the issue and it's actually working. >> yeah. >> david, aaron, i just real quickly i just add with this this administration created this crisis if they would have just left the trump border policies in place, which we're working, immigration was

downright illegal. imm was down we wouldn't be here today. we wouldn't have 10 million illegal immigrants in this time. you know the chyron on my little box of your says nantucket on the island to smile and etiquette 15,000 year on residents for gotaways, ice came over and got four gotaways who committed violent sexual assaults to child rapes, to sexual assaults on other residents here in the immigrant community, your point is well taken, erin, it is affected communities all across the nation, not just border communities, not just big cities. small cities all across america. and it's a crisis that was created by this administration just left to go the trump administration did a good job, right? >> well, thank you all very much. i appreciate it. we are awaiting kamala harris is at remarks which are going to be coming any moment, as he said, it's a crucial policy issue. we're going to bring you that live. and she is on-site and arizona right now next incredible well, new video of a man and his dog rescued from hurricane helene's rising floodwaters. the coast guard officer who rescued them is outfront tonight in georgia's

officer, second class ted hudson, first interview since that daring rescue took place officer hudson, it's terrifying to look at that. the wind and the waves and going down from the helicopter hoisting him up to rescue him. the man and dog were still on their boat. you arrive then what happened on scene and we assess the situation we immediately got me ready to go out the door. >> that flight mechanic pad it on edge and helicopter for me to come out and get ready to go down. so they put me on the hoist and hosted me down in a way i went away. >> you went i mean, it's just it's terrifying and it's

incredible to see i mean, you go down, your, your shot by your helmet cam. you see how high the waves i'm sorry, you're literally looking down and then suddenly just going into those waves and then immediately start swimming to rescue what was that like it was it was a pretty i think my adrenaline kicked in and i was just going to have to think about it too much i've been in situations and training situations in oregon or i've been in big waves like that so i. just didn't think about it kicked in. so i'm over the boat and started telling them to get in the water so we can get this done as soon as possible because helicopter was in 60 mile an hour winds, the pilots have to control that the whole time. is a dangerous situation to be in. and i was just trying to get out of there as fast as possible it's incredible. >> 60 mile-an-hour winds and you went down the dog obviously was terrified. how difficult is it to save an animal in that

situation? i mean which just an animal who's in complete terror honestly, i was super happy to be able to save a dog. i've always seen people do it and finally got to do it the dog was a little skeptical at first to jump in and then he finally decided that he had to jump in and explain right to me no, it wasn't really abadi swam right to me. and i just held onto his little life vests in he seemed to do good from there. >> so then there's a moment later in the video, let me just show this where the man reaches over to you to thank you. you saved this man's life in that moment just complete stress and shock what did he say? >> he just said thank you for saving his life later he got on called the coast guard, that's when he decided to live

then you were able to give him that incredible gift. >> i mean, he had to abandon his home to save his life. where did he go after you landed in? and he went on his way yes. >> we totally understood the series into that situation that he left his home so immediately sector st. pete, which is our our calls, or a call people and they organize the fire department to come and pick him up and make sure he was safe and, you know, we have a second rescue. when you went right back out, so you save this person's life 60 mile an hour wind, you dive into the ocean, the massive waves, and then you go back out you rescued two more people who were trapped on their boat. what happened then? >> yes, so this was actually a to rescue swimmer is on board. the other one is not here on out. ben barton with like icm now their video he actually went down first and there's two

people on the train bridge, i guess it was and he went down and he called back on the radio and said it probably help if teddy came down we can carry this lady along the truck tracks together. so i went down to help officer. >> how does it feel to save a life? >> i said it feels pretty good. that's what it's what i joined the do. and that's what we all wanted. do some people don't get to do it and i say it's a privilege well, thank you so much for sharing that video with us in those moments really appreciate it officer. >> thank you. >> thank you next, israel launching more strikes on beirut. >> a cnn is told that the idf did target has bowl as leader. here's of an all-out war rising is iran does the u.s is complicit in israel's attack. and kamala harris about to speak at the southern border.

>> president biden ordering the pentagon to assess, quote, force posture in the middle east as israel continues to bombard lebanon with strikes, these are live pictures from beirut moments ago there was a red haze of explosions in several locations patients this is also what we saw earlier, comes as an israeli official tells cnn that the leader of hezbollah was the intended target of an earlier massive strike, one that israel is calling very precise. and at this hour, it is unclear if hassan nasrallah, the muslim cleric who leads hezbollah, is dead or alive his death of course, would be a massive blow to the iranian blacked backed militant group, which is already reeling from thousands of exploding pagers and two-way radios killing some of its senior leadership, thousands of them, tensions boiling over tonight as all eyes are on iran. and if when it will react, ron's president calling the attack a flagrant war crime. we are covering this from all angles. jim sciutto is outfront in tel

tense situation right now, what more can you tell us about these coming hours? i mean, you know, all of a sudden you see an explosion lighting the sky over beirut. we don't get a warrant there you go. right now on our live camera, we just saw one so what do you anticipate over these next hours well, the first question is what will israel say? >> and when about whether they killed or injured hassan nasrallah, the leader of hezbollah. i was told by a former senior israeli official that they struck this site with a quote, very high degree of certainty it nasrallah was there when those bombs dropped on this site. the official said the israel would not have attacked with such scope and power if it was not sure with a very high degree of certainty that the ultra terrorist was there. ultra terrorists there the description for hassan nasrallah. so that's the first question. will they be able to confirm that he was killed? but then you have these ongoing strikes that we're watching

play out right now that we were told earlier were because israeli intelligence is that a number of anti-ship missiles it's were stored under buildings there in southern beirut. that's what they're going going after now, the questionnaire and really it's not just how does iran react, how does hezbollah, a reacts? how does it, if and when does it retaliate? but also what is israel's next step because we're seeing a series of airstrikes continuing their does israel take the next step of sending in ground forces? and we reported but earlier how they've already called up reservists. there had been some positioning of troops on the northern border to prepare for such a step and discussion that would mean really not just an escalation of this war, but an all out war between israel and hezbollah on the ground as well, right? >> of course, if the leadership is too taken out, that is the big question great irony if nasrallah is killed by israel before he is sinwar up just to, just to state the incredibly obvious there jim sciutto in tel aviv, i want to go to

of three neighborhoods in beirut's southern suburbs, telling them that they will be conducting strikes on what they say are hezbollah weapons misled telles facilities, asking people within a 500 meter radius around these buildings and these neighborhoods to evacuate immediately. and what we have seen since erin is we are getting these reports that hundreds of people are on the streets, families with children and parks on the streets not knowing where to go. this is truly a terrifying night for the civilians. in this city and certainly after that massive strike the, we saw earlier, this evening a very dangerous moment right now that we're witnessing, not just for lebanon, but for this entire region, erin jomana, thank you very much. in beirut, these early hours of saturday morning, and the breaking news here continues of our other major story tonight, the death toll rising from hurricane

alright, this is live picture of the podium and arizona where kamala harris will be speaking in just a few moments. you see obviously senator mark kelly of arizona. he has been the tough on immigration democrat, tough on immigration in a border swing-state obviously backing harris on this issue now. and he is speaking ahead of her. she is going to be on that podium and podium in just a couple of moments, sources are telling our reporters covering her, priscilla alvarez, that she will be going on offense against donald trump on this issue of immigration an issue that has put her on defense in the past but at least some of you you have any plans to visit the border but i'm here in guatemala today. >> at some point we are going to the border. we've been to the border. so this whole, this whole, this whole thing about the border. we've been to the border. we've been to the

border. >> you haven't been to the border? >> and i haven't been to europe and i thought i don't understand the point that you're making okay. everyone's back with me and she is going to be on that podium in a moment. we're going to take it live because this is important policy so instead, you've covered harris extensively. you just have been in el paso, so you've been spending time in bucha border swing communities obviously el paso. i'm distinguishing it from the entire state of texas. how significant is this moment for her? >> i do think it's a significant moment because this issue has risen to the top for a lot of people when we were in el paso, we heard a kind of consistent story from the folks there, which was one of neglect not only on the policy issue because they feel as it both parties have not prioritized the border and immigration when it comes to governing just more so when campaign season, but also in the politics. but we were talking to folks there overwhelmingly mexican americans who have experienced both sides of the border. they say that they feel like the parties talking in the kind of black and white language. and for folks who don't exist and

they've been that demographic spectrum, they feel as if they haven't really gotten a clear answer about why of the parties have really not prioritized this issue and they don't really feel heard on it. i think this is really what democrats have come around to in the last couple of years is saying, not only are we are we going to not shame trump for what these doi, we're going to try to actually beat him on the solution about border immigration rather than just trying to craft everything he says as discriminatory or as a problem, maybe they've shifted on it, maybe david, this is her version and i don't mean to make light of something that i don't take lightly at all, but i bring up the kursk invasion only in that she is doing something that people would not expect right? >> an issue of incredible weakness. she's only been to the border. it's easy to slam moreover, it, but she went there and she's giving this speech tonight in prime time, knowing that it will be taken live, you got to say there is some courage in that david the air, erin, i think she's doing it because she's realizing that she's losing on this issue.

>> if you look at the numbers in arizona in the senate race guy goes up. trump is up. there's a disconnect people believe that the biden-harris administration rightly has failed them? i don't know if your viewers are familiar. the letter ice to acting ice director said in a letter to tony gonzalez that says, i want to get it straight here. there of the 7 million illegal migrants in this country, 663,000 of them have criminal histories 13,000 have been convicted of homicides. 16,000 of sexual assault 1800s still face criminal charges for homicide. these are people that ice is detained but had to let go because of the current system. it is a huge issue in this country. americans have had enough of it, and that's why she's there tonight. he's realized that they'd broken the system and they need to do something to try to fix it in the last 40 days, get on the plane amount of vice president, go back to washington and do your job ashley is that what's at stake tonight i mean, the fear mongering is on 1,000

tonight. i mean, there's there's not much at stake here. i mean, whether there's actually are real numbers for actually knows it fearmongering raped murdered know not. >> okay. let's go ahead. give me nevertheless, the vice president is down at the border to drive this point that she is demonstrating new leadership on this particular issue. >> but the fact that she's been leaning into the issue is really working to her advantage. it's working now whether or not she's going to persuade everyone the answer is no, but she's persuading some and that actually matters when it comes down to the fact that this race will be probably decided by hundreds of thousands of votes alright, i'm going to just hit pause. the attorney general of arizona is speaking right now. after that, we do expect the vice president to speak. we're going to take that live, will sneak in a very quick break here and we'll be back

for what you need breaking news that is the podium and arizona where the vice president, kamala harris will be momentarily she will be speaking live laying out her border security plan just along u.s.-mexico border just after a day visiting the u.s border with mexico for the second time. >> since she took office alright. let me start with you, astead here in the where she is. she's an arizona. right. she could have gone to several border states, including the one where she was attorney general. she is in arizona, the democratic senator mark kelly, who spoke just a moment. go ahead of the vice president, told me recently he's confident that she can and will win arizona. he has a pragmatic in the current democratic party center, right? a member of the democratic party is he right he's right that she can. >> and i mean not so speakers with joe biden to the fore years ago. but because increasingly democrats are

putting together correlate that should albeit republicans are letting them do so, nominating folks like kari lake that they think can really win there. i mean, for years ago and eight years ago, donald trump was saying tre was a problem on the border while democrats are really saying not so much, that's different now, there's no agreement that there is an issue that needs to be solved. the question for november will be who do you blame on that issue? and trump's telling will be the fault of the biden administration for reversing the policies that were in place. and then a harris telling it will be trump's fought for for, for vetoing the border bill and nixing the republican support over at six months ago, the question will be, can they get enough people to either agree with them that trump would dare elected the duty of them to solve the issue or can they make other issues matter of justice much if not more as immigration donald trump wants this election to be a referendum on immigration. he thinks that helps him win arizona efforts like this tonight are the democrats chance to respond to that? >> ashley, what do you make of her choice to be in arizona tonight for this important speech? >> well, it continues to drive the point that arizona is in

play. i was my intern was just snatched up from me and is now hired and it is on the ground and arizona, there's still staffing up in arizona, so it just really indicates that it's really in play and they think that they could actually went in. and i actually believe the numbers are there to pull it off very quick final word, david that listen, again. i think there's this problem, doesn't have to be where it is today. if the biden-harris administration would just left in place, donald trump's policies. we wouldn't have the seven plus million folks in here wouldn't have those horrible numbers that i just read that the ice director said that congressman gonzalez, that none of that would have happened if they were just left they'd go you made the exact jonathan their own macon's would make. alright. well, she is going to be speaking in just a couple of moments but our time here on this friday is finished.
