are captured the imagination of a generation and is now passing the torch to commer harris. but wasn't there another democratic president somewhere in between a white house a be fortunately said some of the messaging in chicago is a review of the bite and administration. the presidency meant to be a bridge to the future. is it being relegated to a footnote from the past? regarding berlin, this is the day. the something wonderfully magical is in the air, isn't it? though it is up to all of us to fight for the american, we believe the vanquish, the demons of fear, division and hate. america can be and must be a force for good america. health is making

a comeback. also coming up trying to restore law and order in bangladesh. 2 weeks since the prime minister was ousted in her government, the last ethnic and religious minorities say they become targets the icon it loosely muslims in those. but this christian, how do you find the people who live here in bangladesh together? most of us, it kind of do the order of the incidents. i'm motivated by politics, not religion that i've, i've heard that will disabled and i will look at those responsible must be brought to justice. which of our viewers watching on cbs in the united states? it's of all of you around the world. welcome. we begin today with to twilight, the twilight of the us presidency and the twilight of a us of political power. a couple of the democratic national convention in chicago . the party of j by late on monday evening,

saying the president for his service and for his decision not to seek a 2nd term 24 hours later the party celebrated the passing of the torch. now those were the words that were delivered tuesday evening by former us president brock obama. his speech recalled events 20 years ago when he became the leader of a new generation in american politics. in 2024, it is coming to harris who has suddenly become the face of yet another new generation. just as a job, i will in january, relinquish the most powerful position in politics. the obama is, are now relinquishing their role. as the most powerful people in the democratic party, we have more now from chicago. it was the obama night receiving a rock star welcome at the democratic national convention. the president buck obama bugler rousing endorsement of democratic presidential

hopeful. com and the head is, as we do not need 4 more years of bluster and bumbling and chaos stores. we are ready for the booth of almost strongly criticized republican candidate. former president, done his drum. there's a 78 year old billionaire who has not stopped whining about his problems since he wrote down his name escalator. 9 years ago. it has been a constant stream of upgrades and grievances that's actually been getting worse now that he was afraid of losing the commer. 4 years,

donald trump did everything in his power to try to make people see or us see his. his limited narrow view of the world made him feel threatened by the existence of 2 hard work and a highly educated, successful people. the head is very formally accept the parties domination for president at the convention on thursday. it will make her the 1st woman of color to lead a major body presidential ticket off the ready go easy, see it being the presidential. these to get behind head is that the support of the if it goes like the obama democrats are buzzing, but the local and teens? well, our washington bureau chief and his policy joins me now from the dnc in chicago. it is good wednesday evening to you. i'd like to start with the twilight of the power

of the obama in the democratic party. talk to me about what you have heard there about what looks like the end of an era. well, brent, they're still the pop stars here. i mean, everybody's talking about them, they were talking about me said a lot before it was clear that she would appear here on the stage behind me last night. and she said that she's still mourning her mom who just died a couple of months ago. and she wasn't sure if she really could be here if she would be able to deliver this feasible speech. but she did, so the obama are definitely still one of the most popular rockstars. the democratic past has michelle obama as popularity. we know it's very high among democrats, and she has said in interviews that she was relieved when she and brock's 8 years in the white house were over. another jump into public life would have been hers.

to me. if this is the end of the obama era who is turning out the lights in, is it the rock or michelle of the i'm not so sure if it's, it is really the end of the obama era of the printer. know they're still very, very active to have the foundation. so she's just finishing another book which definitely will be a best seller. on the one hand, on the other end, of course no is carmella harris being maybe the 1st black female president. she kind of is this new light, which you probably mean by the question who is telling me of the life, but i'm sure they still will be in the picture even so, michelle obama made it crystal clear that she doesn't like to be in the political spotlight anymore, and that was also sense, like god, last night it was, you know, the way she deliberate her speech. she was very free. it's a little bit like, you know, i don't care about the opinion of the popular guy the more i just want to work for

something i believe. and so i think there will be still in the picture. i'd like for you to take your lives into part of what michelle obama said last night. she began by saying that something magical is in the year. something that has not been present in a long time. take a list of familiar feeling that's been buried to the for far too long. you know what i'm talking about the power of the, the, the energy, the exhilaration of once again being on the cost of a brighter day. the chance to vanquish the demons of fear, the vision and hate that have consumed us and continue pursuing the unfinished promise of this great nation. this is a political report, is that a white house,

a called michelle obama's speech, an implicit rebuke of the bible presidency as a strong words was it that i'm not so sure why i read that as well. um, you know, honestly she didn't really talk about the bite and administration that was not her fault because that was more of a job with her husband who came off to her, who of course had picked uh to buy it. and as, as his, his it'd be pete, she was really so much more focusing on the whole, on the kind of freshman as, of coming to harris. she caused her, my girl, she focus really more on the possibilities of this country in this country. she still believes and then of the failures if you wish, from the bite and administration. so in that regard it's, she didn't really,

you know, she didn't really care so much what she did or what to do to accomplish. she really wanted to push carmella harris into the white house. and what about her husband brock obama? me did he master walking the line between being reverential to joe biden at the same time helping cements harris as biden's rightful replace? that's. that's a good question. a brent you don't. many people said yesterday that actually michelle obama delivered the bathroom speech. her speech definitely was more emotional about the president, former president, brock obama definitely had to walk a much more difficult line than the one that you had a really to show support of, of jo bite and who we must forget that was still the candidate just a month ago, you know, and so he wanted also to applaud his accomplishments and so he was a little bit more if you wish, intellectual. he did the take

a little bit more of the bird perspective and it deliberate a little bit more of an inside political analysis and didn't talk so much about coming to harris. you mentioned there are only a couple of times, but i mean the bottom line, i think he did a fairly good job and people here of course still loved him very, very much. this is the 1st b and c. actually, it's the 1st political convention and us history that has given priority to social media and social media influencers. and there even been complaints from legacy media that they're being somewhat sidelines to be what have you heard, what have you experience or well don't to media or our colleagues. maybe we ourselves as well. always complain that you don't have enough access. i mean, it definitely is, is dominated by a new fresh wiper just to the story with the young insights are here, america and,

you know, they have a different approach and the kind of the hair is a come paint. they just embrace it and it's good for them because they need to reach this next generation, not only to win or to keep the white house, but also to be a political instance into the future. so i personally think it's a great, it's a great thing to see. all these young kids running around through their self is talking to a stablish politicians. and these are not the only ones of course, we're reporting for this convention. they're all traditional media outlets as well . so i think we all just to the brace this new, fresh way of our younger colleagues, how they approach political recording and you know, it tonight we will hear you just from the vice presidential candidate to move on to what when you'd be listening for. so i think he has to do more than just putting out his dad by a piece coach wipe. you know,

we've seen that know, he introduced himself also through social media to the country, which only knew a little bit about in, over the last couple of weeks. but we want to hear a little bit more about his understanding of politics. what does he really want to do for the working clause, which he says he's representing, what does he really want to do to families who are having troubles to get food on the table? so i will be listening if there is some policies in his speech and not only this, like, you know, i'm a coin codes and i love you all. yeah. let me just ask before we run out of time. it is, there's been some criticism that come with harris, his is not being accessible at all to the media, not answering any interview questions, she gets her speech tomorrow night. is the honeymoon between her and the meeting? will it be officially over after that speech tomorrow?

i'll be sure to see, i mean, she definitely has to do some uh sit on interviews, but uh prince, let's be fair. i use use like really working tirelessly to reach out to all her possible motors. she does all these relatives you've been to really yesterday to milwaukee was a see kind of just clips to nomination here. so i think yes, she will have to sit down. but it's a honeymoon over. i doubt it. um, she puts out a great wipe and i just have to say here the moods in this convention center. it's outstanding. it's like one big party. people are so happy that there is some hope back in this political political process. we shall see. yeah, you can send some of that party to us here in berlin if you have some extra, you just fall in chicago. thank you. the well into the political upheaval in bangladesh in the weeks since prime minister shaken seemed to fled to india after

mass protests for supporters, including those among the hindu minority and phase retaliatory your tags. so this is not new for hindus bangladesh. they've faced violence during previous political changes, but this taught some citizens are taking it upon themselves to protect others, homes and temples. this burned down home belongs to 55. yeah. doors open and um, hold on. well, how good spot of the hindu, minority of bundle of dish, he's a supported of the former prime minister. she a casino just div often has seen a flip the country, an angry, bought strong piece of residence, anticipating the attack. he and his family had already fled to safety. on me though, because from this i'm begging skid. after when you've accumulated so much stuff and created a home to body, when somebody buns it down, you don't want to go back there to talk it. but i still want to go back to my house because i've lived there for so long. but the goons and the looting,

they've got it out. it has made me afraid. somebody that a part of these attacks have instant fear. amongst some people in the community that comprises about 8 percent of bunk like this 170000000 people in did them government safe? it's clear politics about this and religion is behind some of these attacks like on it loosely and muslims in those. but this christians and try be people who live here in bangladesh together. most of us kind of do the order of the incidents. i'm motivated by politics, not religion that i've, i've heard that disabled and i will look at those responsible must be brought to justice. one of the most of the joys of has we have this message to minority communities of them because we are showing that the people along the, the government along the, the, the stand by you have one of the tomatoes, one of the just told us that almost the process of that,

but that has been to going to display the feet and misleading information online. mid, far right into when says have shared forks, videos, exaggerating the violence. it has also created panic among, from inducing bangladesh. many students and even lucas have stepped in to provide security for him to neighborhoods here at the package. but he then put in tucker the services continue with students on guard, day and night. i know that there are some real problems happens. there are some uh template binding and uh there are some houses mine are the houses have been actually shut as well. but in that case, i will say definitively you for the major do will not come forward to perfect. the miners gives them the problem and the little that miles of the bargaining houses are simple. the effect of people will be very, very much green. the indian government has pledged to protect hindus that and the

growing number of ordinary people coming to the defense. it has been insured by the communities remain safe. a part of the morning i'm joined by naomi jose and she's a professor at the school of oriental and african studies at the university of london professor. it's good to have you with this. is there a security crisis in bangladesh following the collapse of jacob seen his government as well. thanks for following. the story continues part of the story. as i would say that the security situation is probably very fragile, but it's not, i wouldn't say as far as it was a week or 10 days ago, and it's a lot coming out seems to be improving all the time. the police have returned to the posts to some extent, and the all new standing ready a little. so the board of society came out to really a police, the streets patrol and the concerns about

a robbery and the general breakdown of law and order. so i think that it's about extent the security situation means for job, but not in crisis mode then. well, i think this is really important to mention that was phase of mass attacks against minorities. and there have been kind of forces at least $200.00 of such attacks. but also i think, straightforward and very careful here that has been also a massive campaign. this information coming naturally, i think from right wing into accounts and organizations and, and just makes it very difficult to understand actually the extent of what has been going on. and on the left it seems a lot of these attacks have been against a warm league support is that does not make it right, doesn't make it good. but it does mean that it is not a religious motivated campaign of attacks. it seems a lot of these claims have been thoroughly to vote and to repeatedly, to bunk i should say 5, a very credible fact checking groups,

the c p out to 0 advice, other groups. and if i can just imagine there was an extended piece in the diplomat last week by for honda. so found that which summarized all of this? so yes, it's fragile, but not prices. let me ask you think about the police. the police forces are, are they fatally compromised? mean, does the force need maybe to be rebuilt from scratch? i mean, if we're talking about possible attacks or minorities being targeted, you know, we're getting rewards that minority groups, religious groups say that promises by security forces by the police to protect them or not being kept as well. the day off to shake his senior resigned and the tax on police stations around the city around the country. so we think now the number of that policeman, after this, the price of the tax and including the protest movement is $44.00. so the police

a very, very fighting for good reason and they have been seen for many, many years now. i see it forces in shakiness regime. so it's so it's, it's a, it's understandable. i think that they were an object. they were target of these reprisal attack. so i think there's a, there's a real problem here which is that the majority to boss majority of the piece will actually increases. i'm shaken, seen this rule, which makes it very difficult to when to reform the police without wholesale reform . there was an effort to give them new uniforms and badges and logos and so on, which i think was quite rightly derived as, as, as a very unlikely to make much difference. yeah, i think it's a real priority. it's not quite clear yet how that's going to be achieved. and it's one of those huge, one of the many huge challenges that professing and this is facing right now. yeah, i want to ask you about professor units. you know, it's been about 2 weeks since he was sworn in returning to bangladesh from paris

and give us a sense of just the challenges you know, that he is facing a be do. how would you describe the political situation that he found when he landed or, or the political situation is, is probably be the biggest challenge we have, of course, in the one me league which is thoroughly and now when rejected really by a majority of the people, there's no doubt about that, but also kind of weak opposition. the function actually respond to the main opposition has itself been, you know, under so much pressure has been arrested and jailed in the thousands of and in exile the leader of the b and p was under house arrest is very ill and, and quite elderly. so it's not clear really that there was a strong opposition either. the student movement is turning out to be quite a, quite to a false, actually full, full,

quite well organized and trying to be supported with the, this, the dream government very much. so whether they will turn themselves into a and active political parties don't say in his yet unknown. and, but i think many young people think that they should, there's a strong sense, i think, in the dash that neither of the 2 main parties have really done a great deal of good for bangladesh and actually alternatives all wanted for us and the other challenges. yeah, go ahead and connect this labor cortez. yeah, go ahead. oh, there is now facing huge flats. it's a terrible situation. over a 1000000 people are stranded or in trouble because of the slots and there's a ring, the refugee crisis brewing in the southeast corner of an economic crisis as well. so we have a lot for pressing. this has a lot to deal with. so he needs everyone's goodwill, we shall solution. presently we have seen it as always. good talking with you. we appreciate your valuable analysis of this situation. thank you. or thank you

for the day continues online. you'll find this on the x also known as twitter, and on youtube that need to be a new she can following me at brent golf tv on social media. and before we go, here's a bit more of what you'll see only in america when the political parties choose their presidential nominees at their national conventions. each state is called individually to declare who it's delegates support. it's become a formality, but not this year. for the delegates from georgia, and that has everything to do with a man from atlanta and known as little john. take a look, we'll see you tomorrow. so how do you cast your vote? the
