7:03 am
edwards has to say about the big games. we love talking about it. >> whit: yes, and we have been tracking our monday night football picks. gio not off to a great start. we'll get into it a little later on. we have much more ahead this morning including what's in store for interest rates. the federal reserve meeting this week and expected to cut rates for the first time in about four years. the question now is by how much, and how soon people could feel some relief. >> gio: but we do begin here with the presidential race. the candidates back in campaign mode after tuesday's debate. former president trump in the west this weekend while vice president harris focuses on raising money and planning a midwest tour this week. abc's maryalice parks leads us off. good morning, maryalice. >> reporter: good morning, gio. vice president kamala harris back here in washington, d.c., overnight telling donors and supporters that with just 50 days to go, with early voting set to start in many key states in the next few weeks,
7:04 am
the clock is ticking, in this election. with just over 50 days to go until election day, vice president kamala harris telling supporters it's time to get to work. >> generations of americans before us led the fight for freedom and for the future, and now the baton is in our hands. >> reporter: at an event with the congressional black caucus in washington, d.c., harris ticking through her policy priorities, like expanding the affordable health care act, guaranteeing access to abortion, capping the cost of prescription drugs, and protecting voting rights. it was president biden who took on republicans with a sharper tone, accusing them of wanting to ban books and rewrite history. >> they're all ghosts, the new garments, the extremists coming for your freedoms. it will be harder to vote and have your vote counted. >> reporter: the vice president barnstorming battleground states this week, multiple rallies in north carolina and pennsylvania, making a direct pitch to
7:05 am
independents and even republicans. former president trump campaigning aggressively too. in california, nevada, arizona, and utah the last few days, asked by our local abc station ktnv about what his message would be to republicans who have backed harris. >> i probably wouldn't tell them anything because maybe it would probably be a personality problem. >> reporter: he's continued to spread unsubstantiated claims about haitian immigrants in springfield, ohio. city officials believing his words are having a profound effect on daily life there. one university canceling all on-campus activities due to a shooting threat targeting haitians. springfield also facing bomb threats several days in a row, leading to evacuations in town. >> i don't know what happened with the bomb threats. >> reporter: trump ignoring it, promising mass deportations there, even though springfield officials say haitian immigrants have temporary legal status. haitian immigrants telling our reporters there in springfield, ohio, that they had enjoyed finding work in that community, but that there is a
7:06 am
real sense of fear and anxiety now given the charged climate. now trump in that interview also talked about his own economic priorities, more oil and gas drilling, instating tariffs, and eliminating taxes on tips and overtime pay. whit? >> whit: all right, maryalice parks, thank you so much as always. we have a brand-new abc news/ipsos poll just out this morning, so let's bring in our political director and washington bureau chief, rick klein, to break it all down. rick, good morning. always great to have you. so, overall here, what does our new poll say about where this race stands following that debate. >> good morning, whit. kamala harris has a six-point lead among likely voters. in our poll. 52-46 over trump, and that is exactly where the race stood just two weeks ago on the eve of the debate. no change, although there was some tightening in the polls of the last couple of weeks. things were getting narrow, but it looks like this race settled back to a solid, but not overwhelming lead for kamala harris, particularly with her
7:07 am
base starting to come home a bit more and feel more enthusiastic about her candidacy. >> whit: rick, both sides were declaring victory, but what do voters say about who won the debate? >> yeah, this poll pretty securely puts the win in the column of kamala harris, particularly among independents. maybe more significant than that, though, take a look at these numbers. the number of people who say they view harris more favorably as a result of this debate, 37% versus 23% who say less favorably. it's almost the opposite story for donald trump, 2-1 margin, voters said they viewed trump less favorably as a result of this debate, and again, that translates into -- into enthusiasm, and into what kind of voters you have backing your candidacy. again, harris feeling pretty good coming out of that debate about -- assuaging some concerns of voters who may not have known her that well. >> whit: rick, we know we're entering a new era of politics when pollsters are asking about the taylor swift endorsement. what are people saying about that? >> look. this is not looking like a game changer based on the initial results. only 6% of americans say that
7:08 am
they are more likely to vote for kamala harris as a result of the swift endorsement. more than twice as likely to say they're less likely, but those anti-swifties are almost exclusively republicans anyway. they were going to vote for trump regardless, and we've seen voter registration spike in the last couple of days that the harris campaign will take even if the swift effect is not going to change the trajectory of this race. >> whit: never a dull moment in this campaign, that's for sure. rick klein as always, thank you. tune into "this week" later this morning. martha raddatz speaks exclusively with the two governors about the state of the 2024 race, ohio republican mike dewine and massachusetts democrat maura healey, plus, she sits down with a 9/11 survivor who is now revealing his role as a former cia officer on the mission to take down osama bin laden. janai? >> janai: now overseas where a houthi missile landed inside central israel overnight. the israeli military also giving reporters a look at the border area that has become essential to cease-fire talks.
7:09 am
abc's matt gutman joins us live from tel aviv with the very latest. good morning, matt. >> reporter: good morning, janai. a short time ago, the idf telling me that missile broke apart over israel. still, this is the first time that a missile fired by the houthis in yemen, 1,300 miles away, managed to penetrate israel's sophisticated air defense system. this morning for the first time, a missile fired from yemen penetrating israel's air defenses triggering air raid sirens, pieces of it landing near israel's main airport. the houthi militia saying the missile attacks will continue as long as israel remains in gaza. late friday, the idf taking us right into the philadelphi corridor. along the gaza/egypt border. the giant israeli flag flying. israel's prime minister netanyahu says he won't sign a cease-fire and hostage release deal unless israel maintains control of the philadelphi corridor. hamas calling that a nonstarter. this tunnel big enough to drive
7:10 am
a truck into. the idf says that this tunnel was built right underneath a mosque used as cover. they also say that this is one of the centers of operation for the entire rafah brigade, the hub of so many tunnels in this area, up to 200 that were apparently here. but they wanted us to see another tunnel, so we rolled into the wreckage of rafah. the destruction here is jaw-dropping. it is absolute pancaked buildings. you see household goods strewn everywhere, and this goes on as far as the eye can see. the convoy stops. the idf is extremely edgy where we are right now. nearby the tunnel where those six hostages were found weeks ago. do you believe there may be additional hostages in this area? >> we are investigating. our assumption is that there are no -- not any other hostages, but we are very, very careful when we operate. >> reporter: israeli security sources believe about 50 hostages remain alive.
7:11 am
the idf saying hamas has been defeated here, but resistance remains. you can hear all that gunfire. there's still some active fighting here. the idf says that it's mostly small cells of hamas that pop out of tunnels. over 1.4 million people displaced from the rafah area. over the weekend, hamas-run health ministry in gaza saying 64 people were killed, scores wounded, including this father consoling his son as medical staff tend to him. it's hard to watch those images, and in over 20 years of covering conflict, i have never seen destruction like that. the camera can't quite capture the scope of it all. israel says it wouldn't target those areas if hamas didn't hide among the civilians, but what's clear is that it will take years to rebuild places like rafah. not clear where palestinians will live in the interim, gio. >> gio: just unbelievable images
7:12 am
there. matt, thank you for your reporting. we're going to turn now to the battle over an attempt to ban tiktok if it doesn't get sold by january. there's a key court hearing tomorrow in washington, and abc's perry russom is following it all. good morning, perry. the clock is ticking. >> reporter: gio, good morning to you, and tiktok has become a valuable tool during the presidential campaign to reach out and connect with younger voters, but one of the questions this morning is, is this the final election for tiktok? this morning, tiktok and its parent company bytedance facing an ultimatum, sell the app or be banned. tiktok's lawyers are scheduled to argue in court tomorrow that the law that could ban the app is unconstitutional. >> there's no denying that this app has huge cultural influence today. >> reporter: it comes less than five months after president biden signed a bill into law giving bytedance until january to find a new owner for tiktok. tiktok has become a place to unwind, influence, and even try to win a presidential election. >> hey, kamala, what are we going to say to donald trump in
7:13 am
november? >> bye, bye, bye. >> reporter: both vice president kamala harris and former president trump are on tiktok, posting videos to appeal to voters. >> the president is now on tiktok. >> it's my honor. >> reporter: even as the justice department calls tiktok a national security threat. >> we see both campaigns on there. regardless of how they even feel about tiktok, tiktok's future, they're using it now. they want to reach young people. >> reporter: u.s. officials say user data can be handed over to the chinese government. tiktok denies the allegation, calling the attempt to ban it a radical departure from this country's tradition of championing an open internet and sets a dangerous precedent. and pew research finds public support of a tiktok ban has been falling in recent months. it was at 50% back in march. now it's at 32%. whit? >> whit: perry russom for us, thank you. now to the federal reserve's meeting this week, and what analysts expect will be the first interest rate cut in about four years. abc's alexis christoforous is here with the details and what
7:14 am
this all means for us. alexis, good morning. >> reporter: good morning, whit. the question is not if the federal reserve will cut interest rates, but by how much. with inflation cooling off and the job market slowing down, the fed is widely expected to cut rates at its meeting wednesday for the first time in four years, making it cheaper for americans to borrow money. this is welcome relief for consumers who have been struggling for years now with high prices and soaring interest rates. the average credit card interest rate is near a record high of 21% and delinquency rates are on the rise, but there are some bright spots. gas prices now near a three-year low, and the 30-year mortgage rate is averaging 6.2%. that's the lowest level since february of last year, and more relief may be on the way. most investors are betting the fed will reduce rates by a quarter point this week, but others say the time is right for a larger half-point cut to prevent the economy from slowing down too quickly. regardless of the size of that rate cut, experts agree consumers won't feel immediate relief. they say it will take several rate deductions over the several
7:15 am
months for consumers to feel a measurable impact in their wallets. janai? >> janai: important reminder there that it will take time, alexis. thank you. now to our emmy award countdown. the big celebration just hours away, and chris connelly is in l.a. with more. good morning to you, chris. >> reporter: hey, good morning to you, janai, and you know the drill. fancy dresses and glam squads, tuxedos and hair product. it's fixing to be that kind of morning here in hollywood as nominees, presenters, and performers get emmy-ready before boogying down here to l.a. live and rocking the red carpet before heading on into the 76th emmys. for a show that will honor the best of 2024 and the best of what some came before. ♪ 25 emmy categories tonight, and an abundance of tv achievement in each one. >> we're going to show you what greatness looks like today and tomorrow. >> reporter: featuring such

7:21 am
again, being not just the first mother-daughter agent tandem, but we're black women doing it. it feels amazing. >> reporter: both women are attorneys and lifelong baltimore ravens fans. edy who started in sports law, got her certification as a sports agent in 2010. her daughter, following suit and now they're representing some of the top players. >> it's intercepted. >> reporter: quarterback smith, from the denver broncos, nate hobbs from the las vegas raiders, and harris from the atlanta falcons. >> i used to play football in the streets in baltimore with my five brothers. when i decided i wanted to be a sports agent, i decided i wanted to do football. >> once my mom had her foot in the door, i would follow her around. like, can i intern with you guys? >> reporter: but in an industry where women, especially women of color are significantly underrepresented, the mother-daughter duo are a big deal. out of nearly 1,000 certified nfl agents, only 88 are women, and an even smaller fraction of those are black women.

7:33 am
this is abc news medical correspondent dr. darien sutton, our very favorite. it's great to have you. concussions are top of mind after seeing that hit. the dolphins' tua tagovailoa suffered on the field last thursday. what exactly happens during a concussion? >> dr. darien: i'm glad we bring it up because concussions are some of the common things i see in the emergency room. just to break it down and to understand, when we are struck with a force, whether it be our body or head, our brain moves within our skull, and that can cause damage to delicate structures. we're talking about damage to nerves and blood cells. there can be tearing. there can be ripping and also at a cellular level, we've seen in animal studies that there are chemical changes. the problem is that this damage can't easily be tracked or found on ct scans or other forms of imaging like mris so it leaves many patients concerned without fully the knowledge of where their symptoms are coming from. it's guided mainly by symptoms. >> gio: i didn't realize how dangerous these are until you started telling me about this.
7:34 am
even more dangerous if you are a kid, right? what are the symptoms and risks of a concussion? >> dr. darien: the symptoms can be different from one person to another. we commonly see things like headache, right, nausea, blurry vision, but it can include things like dizziness, problems with memory, and sleep disturbance. it's important to remember i tell patients this when i discharge patients. more concussions can equal more damage. it can give symptoms of dementia if not accurately treated and identified. >> janai: oh my gosh. >> whit: we're learning so much more about head injuries over time. what's the best way to treat a concussion if you think you have these symptoms? >> dr. darien: rest is so important. many times when we know historically many patients, i know i have this idea too that you can't sleep after you hit your head. i understand where that comes from, but it's important to know what the data states. it's important to rest in the first 48 hours. that means putting away screens and stop doing things that
7:35 am
