it overnight, the process began of selecting a replacement, quickly the speed dating version, if you will. the politics, vice president campbell a here as quickly emerged as the democrats choice for president. she accepts the nomination this week along with the man she chose to be her vice presidential running mate, the governor of minnesota. tim waltz. i'm bridge off in berlin. this is the day the i'm calling on. oh, you independent. we love this country and you on this side, it guided by our love of the country already developed for freedom. tom le harris has got to stand up and fight for your freedom. donald trump, to associate democracy on january 6, once to take away our rights and our freedoms. donald trump fellow slate that is on

trial with us to the also it coming up, embedded with a ukrainian military are corresponding knit connelly reports from the ukranian, occupies course the region of russia. we're limited to it, which means that we will have, you know, with the, with us the route, we're not able to do it freely. now, that is pretty much the way to get in. let's get some idea of what's going on in the story. which i'll review is watching on cbs in the united states and do all of you around the world. welcome. we begin today with the man who could one day be a heartbeat away from the us presidency. minnesota governor tim was on wednesday, accepted the democratic party's nomination. of him to be the vice presidential

running mate of comma la harris harris is the current vp. she's hoping to win the election in november and to move into the white house as the 1st woman us president . now, throughout us history, the vice president has been treated as a political after it's all un under study, always ready, but almost always, never getting the call. there have been tragic exceptions such as the assassination of j. f. k. the resulted in the presidency of lyndon baines, johnson or when a sitting president decides not to run for re election, biden pulling back harris moving forward. and that brings us to the man who will run at her side and to many say has the qualities to make. the harris was ticket a winning one in november. take a list to you know, you might not know it, but i haven't given a lot of big speeches like this but i have given

a lot of pep docs. so let me, let me finish with this team. here for you're down at field, go that you're on a bench and we've got the bank, we're driving down the field and why do we have the right team? pamela harris is top tamela harris is experience and com or why harris is ready. our job or job, or job or job for everyone watching, is to get in the trenches and do the blocking and tackling one edge out of time. one yard out of time. one thing called out of time, one door knock out of time. $15.00 donation at

a time. all right, our political quarterback in washington bureau tv dispos, she's covering the d and c fours in chicago. good thursday evening to you. it is that speech, it was built as a chance for tim was to introduce himself to the nation and to the world. did he do it? and boy did he deliver? he did indeed. friends, you know this a re, no, this is more than spend 2000 people here. they're both. so in fluids. he asked to holding a science up, it's coach valez. that's how he presents himself and how he presented himself. you're also in stages as you put it, like a man was dead wives, but also just like a very normal person. he also kind of defines a modern masculinity. if you haven't seen you and lately, use a dad, he loves kids use a codes and to use warm entities wherever you very trustworthy that all came across

here. i'd hardly anybody knew him in the united states just like 2 weeks ago before he got this call from vice president pamela harris, who asked him if he wants to be his running mate. but ever since, boy, is he doing well and was, has been careful not to demonize fellow americans who have voted for donald trump. is that a message that all democrats can take on board? yeah, and that's actually also one reason why a couple of harris pick 10, you should reach out to those undecided voters to those who are kind of swinging between democrats and republicans for the full. so of course also to those republicans who are not in line with donald trump, who do not want. i don't need to, i'm to go to the 2nd term and that's why she picked him. the hope is that she can reach out to will areas to work into those areas, to regular, a white male who had

a tendency to rather go this donald trump at least in a 2020. but this go down the road with the other kind of part of the democratic party. i mean, from whatever i heard to your years. it does, at least in this bubble here, this a read that because we mustn't forget, you know, this is the d and c a. this is the, a congress of policy members definitely also has to win over those who are not so in a circle, but from everything i experience here and also during my travel across the country, he does good job pretty well so far, but a friend. but he also has as kind of a hers to deliver some more policies and not only a good vibes. so that's something we definitely have to see after this convention here next week. that's right. the honeymoon may be about to in summer saying you just bowl at the dnc in chicago. it is as always,

thank you. so i'm going to swing down to washington and bring in justin higgins. he's a communications consultant who has worked for both democrats and republicans. it's not every day we get to meet one of you and justin. it's good to have you with this 5 days ago. but i was looking at your twitter feed, your x the you posted on next. that this is the best campaign for president that you've ever seen strategically on point amazing narrative work and doing everything to minimize risk. that's what she said. do you think the same thing today with the convention now almost history. i do think the same thing. i was just in any units and i agree with a lot of what she's saying. i think it's important to understand that the message that joe biden was giving while true the trump is the strong man who is an excess central threat to democracy, was in some way is building up from and also very heavy and somber in the message from the harris walls campaign is really completely the opposite. yes,

harris is strong and has strength. but they're also a joyful warriors. so when they were attacking chrome, which any candidate needs to do, they're doing it through jokes with a smile on their face and quite simply and election is a popularity contest. and voters want to be around the people who have a smile on their face. not people angry, weird guy electronic. yet the appeal of 10 walls trying to avoid demonizing. trump, voters. can that do you think of that work or are americans not already simply to divide to pull the rocks or yeah, so be to put them in the context right? white working class men will go for the g o p. what carriers and walls are trying to do is chip off maybe half a percent. one percent of those voters, and they were from hillary clinton, demonized strong voters as the portables in 2016 when i was back. the are and see

the you don't waiting voters by attacking those same voters. so in selecting 10 walls, they pick the guide books in sounds normal, like a low middle class farmer. and also he's talking in a language that is coded to these people, american football, respect, your neighbor, all love your friends. so these values that these people hold near and dear. he's also using sports. and the bible in language that they understand it's to get those points across. so i do think it's possible to have some of an impact and even a percent can change the election. just i'd like us to consider transportation secretary p budget for just a moment. so i'm call him the smartest american politician right now. this is what he said yesterday about the republican v p. can that a j d band stimulus? cd vance is one of those guys who thinks if you don't live the life that he has in mind for you, then you don't count someone who says that if you don't have kids,

you have quotes, no physical commitment to the future of this country. you know, senator, when i deployed the afghanistan, i didn't have kids. then many of the men and women who went outside the wire with me didn't have kids either. but let me tell you our commitment to the future of this country was pretty dam physical. it's just in with you here. the politicians speaking, but that level of eloquence, conviction, east, a military veteran. why is it, he's the vice presidential candidate or even what the presidential candidate? well, i really do walk and respects the secretary people to judge and i think his time will come. and i think that tim was, was an interesting period because he is a darling of the progressives. and i was listening to you earlier asking if all of

the democrats will stay rallied around the p. harris into more of a selection, not only talks to the rural voters in the middle of the country. but he does it in an effective way with democrats, because progressives absolutely loved him. they think he is one of their own. so by picking walls, you're able to get, hopefully those independent and conservative voters, the easiest was talking about are also you're able to buttress your left flank because he's one of the darlings of that left. so i think that unique appealed it. tim was, has, is probably why he was selected in people who judge his time a. com. all right, well we'll see. i guess time will tell, let me ask you about this low risk and campaigning that you like. um, coming from cumberland harris. you know, a lot of journalists more and more do not like this. um, she has not been accessible for interviews. for example, after the convention, after this honeymoon, if you will,

is over. won't it be necessary for her to take some risks and to say ok, you know, throw me the questions eventually. uh, that will be dictated by the vibes of the campaign which may very well shit. but i think we need to understand one of the reasons why it's such a low risk campaign is because typically, nominees have to go through a primary process where they have to outline controversial policies to appeal to the left in the center of the party. because the way that harris was nominated, she didn't have to do any of that. the party was despondent, resigned to a 2nd trunk term under biden's campaign. and then when she came in to become the dominique in energized and united the whole party on. so eventually she will have to answer these questions and it may upset journalists, but we got to remember, she's not running to win over journalists, she's running to win over bars. and she's also not the one of attacking the media

as being big news. the enemy of the people and brian, we offer supporters to go after you guys. yeah, i mean, but obviously she's got to let people know what she stands for, where she is on the issues. what do you think will be the risk is points them between now and election day for her campaign that i'm guessing you're going to say the debate with donald trump. the be with donald trump and i'll send it to to something on as obvious right? of the conflict in the middle east, she has not outlined on 1st stance on this conflict. it really seems like she's mirroring president biden and the national security teams approach. so what happens if there's a major flash point original war? what happens if there is an economic crash? she will need to address those issues with strength, with clarity of policy, which you've already alluded to, but also she will need to maintain a joyful warrior approach that has come to define her. so really i'm not worried about the debates at all. i'm worried about a wax one event which is inevitable,

between now in november and how the campaign is able to a. yeah. and between now and november, just as an attorney to your politics, you're right. a lot can happen. strategic communications consultant justin higgins . just and good to have you on the show. come back and talk with this again. thank you. jen credit president, bottom is zalinski has toward the northeastern see me region of ukraine, which borders russia is his 1st visit to the area. essentially crane launched its assault into rushes chorused region. so if he met with you crazy and commanders and said that ukraine has no plans to occupy the area long term, but he wants to create a buffer zone to prevent russia from launching more air strikes into ukraine. now it's important to note here, zalinski did not cross the border into ukrainian occupied russian territory,

dw, corresponding the connelly. he has been in bed with ukrainian troops during their operations in the course region. you accompany them as they headed for the town of sewage, just beyond the border with russia, where ukraine is setting up a military command office for these new cali joins us from the ukrainian side of the border. nick, good to see you. you have just returned from the russian side. tell me um, what is the situation there? what did you see to oversee it is very unfamiliar, right? you're seeing the same scenes that we've seen now for it to know if he is in ukraine in the south and east. you have those abandoned streets. a few old people trying somehow survive against backdrop of ought to refine the distance. except this time it's in russia has to be said though, compared to some of the places you might have heard of in the east of ukraine, around i've got yes. have you all more recently, the fighting release the century fi is not very intensive. that often it does come

to me, but it's all kind of close the spectrum. but what makes the situation deputy kind of unusual and what made the brain soul just be with that? pretty nervous was quite how unclear the front lines still. all right, so we know that the grains have about 30 drums that they can move inside the country inside the russian car territory, but they're still all groups of russian soldiers assuming the operating vine, ukrainian line. so it's all pretty flexible and pretty unclear and potentially dangerous. we weren't in bed so we was fully freed to move around as we might have wanted that space to any way to get that. let's have a look at what we brought back to. this is just the the windows of the brain. you know, my personal care you properly unlimited view, empty streets. in the case of sam showing in the distance, you could be somewhere along different lines in ukraine. but this is russia, ukraine control, which means that we will have to go with us the route. we're not able to do it

freely, but for now that is pretty much the way to get in. let's get some idea of what's going on there. we see part of the story. no one knows how many russian civilians were left behind when ukrainian forces across the border. locals told us the towns where snow thirty's simply go to that cause and fled. those remaining had no running water, no power, and crucially, no phone signal for 2 weeks now. cut off from use and their families and the rest of russia. compared to many places in east and ukraine, that seems comparatively quiet. the ukrainian soldiers accompanying us, or on edge we were just trying to talk to some locals here in subject, and they was a big shot for me. will you kind troops with us? they have seen a russian solid drawn up in the sky above, which would normally get coordinates for temporary or the strikes that could potentially be coming. this way to licksey demetrius keeps getting is the spokes

person for the new be created, ukrainian ministry come on in coast region. he says he never expected to be here. unlike russia, he says, ukraine has no plans tonics territory. i'm just so it should say that we don't want to keep this land. we don't need it. good. we've had to do this to show our enemy that they're vulnerable as well. let me assure you that they're not all powerful reading. some of the things leaders want the world and with new russians to see images like this. they want ordinary russians to put pressure on vladimir putin to move troops away from the front lines in the east of ukraine to defend russian. so a hit and coast, and now it seems that they're not doing that. they're not moving those institutes away from dumbass. but the hope among the range hoops here, as long as this goes on, and the more recent after they take that eventually for us, it will be forced to drill down exclusively. we're going to see the locals. we're hiding in a cellar nearby, the streets are empty. basically,

you can hit off generators. existence, there's still no power here and very occasionally, some ukrainian motor transport it's mainly the elderly and those looking off to sick friends and relatives who stayed behind the point meet, stay close to the basement where they sleep for safety. no one offered me a chance to evacuate. some people got out on their own in their cars or you know to who i live alone. my daughter lives far away. i had no way of getting out the lovers. so as i was looking after an elderly friend, she was sick before i couldn't just leave her helper black. she died yesterday and we buried her today not as many as being left homeless by the continual to re fi between ukrainian forces here in sewer. russian forces nearby my house was bomb to them, but there's only

a crater left. i was here when that happened yesterday. oh no. the house has destroyed. computers has been built to do my best to work of setting up humanitarian car doors to allow these people to reach areas under russian government control. sofa is no more than talk this vulnerable thing. if i came to work and sewage of that day, we didn't understand what was happening. i've been here ever since. my parents are back in the village, they're 84 and 83 years old. i don't know what's happened to them and they don't know what's happened to me. then something we weren't expecting to see the screen, you know me, spokes person gets out his laptop. so these are some civilians, video from butcher, the town, a key of what russian troops accused of carrying out war crimes. and they controlled the area local seam exhausted, barely able to take anything in the movement reveals more about how ukrainian soldiers or russian sort of feelings it does about russians appears on the war.

some ukrainian soldiers seemed to think this, they can show ordinary russians. what was done in the name and ukraine, and perhaps those russians were question regarding the approaching story of what he calls the special military operation in ukraine. we don't have time to say anymore . we told this time to leave nick, it's excellent reports. they are fascinating insights on the other side of the battle line. and it seems that the ukranian troops in russia were almost as surprised by the speed of this operation as everyone else. i think that's true and we're increasingly learning from ripple some along with some more direct attributes . it that the frames have tried to cross the border and other parts of russia and brad's guns and build roads of west and east prospectively of where i am here in. so me on the board with coast region and that didn't work out. they might have gotten a few promises and then being pushed back. so the fact that this worked out and said it proved so possible to get that for insurance based on this sort of being on

basically now, 2 weeks, we've got reports of refrain troops up to afford to go with a deep interest directory and some thoughts. i know there need to talk to you today with controlling it's also about presentable. we've had ukraine and so just tell us that they have captured more russian soldiers over the past 2 weeks. then in the previous 2 and off the use of the war. and these are the people that can be exchanged, we've raise hell. the rest of the russian has been very reluctant to give more kind of delete your credit in units. and the kind of more experienced ukraine trips to in maryville for instance. we'll fix the, as a freshman, they have kept those back. and now the hope here in your brain is that in return for these recipes as well as some of the people will come home. so that is a kind of a, a been totally fine story about is about your brand new. so this would be the rest of the potentially coming home. soon as you mentioned, the boucher in your reports and one of the places russians carried out atrocities in ukraine. is there a sense among ukranian troops that they must do all they can to avoid harm to

russian civilians? are they cognizant of the watchful eye of the world? i think that is something that is very clear to the brand new in the process. certainly something that they all paint and to see me people excited about this, a pricing just driving behind me that we have seen lots of you guys as media reports, videos, all of the things i was handing out to monitoring aid, a bringing doctors to treats the other people there and so to some of this overseas about the kind of p all baffle. but i think is something you hear from the kind soldiers of camera is they will tell you, we have nothing against russians in russia. that is the land. but i'll try to take it, we have something against russians in ukraine, and it's not about food and they are very close to invite you to pay for the prison as well as the treatment, as well as a just that that will also help to the motivates russian, some fighting invited me, for instance, on the hope is by showing that ukraine is not bad to, and it fits of russia. they can prevent only russian society up to fight and you

need before you let you go to the you are back in the ukraine to night. there are reports that say that russia is the issue, international arrest warrants for journalists who enter occupied territory. there is a risk of how is that affecting your work? if i don't look, we're not able to report from also from the russian folks by bits of ukraine. we don't have a credit stations. they are not included in giving us that access it for us. immediate little changes, i think it looks like more dentist will be going to. so just to coast with these kind of embedded trips. so presumably that'd be more of these cases going. i interesting things to kind of point out about this is that according to russell, all the places in east new framed with the reporting on for 2 years and from the source patrol school kind of something. so that is all according to russian. what was the russia but seemingly, they don't need to open from the face. people actually those areas they so make a difference between 1st especially recognize person directory and bits of ukraine that rushes on. it, i think for now it doesn't mean a great deal,

but certainly it is an attempt to dissuade people from going some scaring people. for now it doesn't seem like it's working. we need, we certainly do appreciate your excellent reporting and we appreciate that you are in safety tonight. back in you create an economy, nick, thank a of the day continues online. you find this on ex, also known as twitter, and on youtube that needs to be news. you can follow me on social media at brent golf tv. and remember, whatever happens between now and then tomorrow is another day. i'll see you then if the
