adams. the white house and he write jefferson and they can be friends again and they carry on this correspondence from braintree, massachusetts, in charlottesville, virginia. they so they they continue on if they vary jefferson isolate himself from from the world pretty much up on top of his little mountain, which is what monticello means in an italian. they madison stays more involved in public affairs. and as a matter of fact is writing. in 1832 as an old man writing against the nullification doctrine that john c calhoun was advancing, that the states south carolina can nullify federal legislation and madison is explaining that neither he in the kentucky in the in the in the virginia resolute actions nor jefferson in the more radical of kentucky resolution of 1798 were actually early advocating nullification by states of federal laws. even though those resolutions could be read as doing so. so he's he says miss mr. jefferson, like all men of genius, went a little too far in his enthusiasm for new ideas and so he's he's participating in national debate at age. what would it be age age 81 going o

white house. congressman adam smith said in a statement biden was no longer able to articulate his case for a secondatement reads in part, the american people made it clear they do not see him as a credible candidate to serve four more years as president. since the debate the president has not seriously addressed these concerns. this is unacceptable. the stakes are too high. donald trump and maga extremism pose an existential threat to our nation and we need to be in the strongest position to win this election. congressman smith went on to say he would still back president biden if he remains the nominee. earlier monday joe biden urged the democratic party to unite behind his candidacy saying he was their best chance at defeating trump in november. item wrote a letter to democratic lawmakers saying he was running the race to the end. in response to further calls over the weekend by fellow democrats for the president to end his reelection run. mr. biden addressed their concerns directly saying he was not blind to them. he also mentioned how he had won the primaries fairly, questioning if those callin

white dudes. including celebrities like jeff bridges and politicians like representative adam schiff, who pledged a $50,000 donation match. last week the campaign raised over $10 million after holding two fund-raising calls named, quote, white women answer the call. and, quote, win with black women. donald trump, meanwhile, is trying to cleanup past comments made by his running mate who claimed, quote, childless cat laid wrez don't have a direct stake in america's future. in a sit down interview that aired on fox news last night trump defended ohio senator j.d. vance for the remarks he made in 2021, which have come under renewed scrutiny since vance joined the republican presidential ticket. >> he's not against anything, but he loves family. it's very important to him. he grew up in a very interesting family situation, and he feels family is good. and i don't think there's anything wrong in saying that. now, they took that as an indication that people who don't have families -- look, i can see -- i know so many people they never met the right person or male or female, they just never met the right

that's the cross law have not to adam fisher who's at the white house on what kind of tone can we expect from terabyte. what would he be hoping to get across? well, this is a hugely important and historic moment. it is very rare that a president of the united states a mix up pick time address at from the oval office and particularly to a nice one.

joining us now white house correspondent for politico adam cancren. adam, good to see you this morning. it has been a 180 for the democrats and their presidential campaign. you were with president biden as he was recovering from covid there in rehoboth beach for several days, and now there's this worst of enthusiasm, tell us what you're hearing from democrats about how the first two days of the harris campaign have gone and what they're excited about. >> yeah, john, what a difference three excruciating weeks make for the democratic party. when i was in rehoboth just a few days ago, there was just this kind of funeral atmosphere appall over what joe biden would do, how if he stayed in they were going to win this race, how they were going to recover from three weeks of just a terrible news cycle. and in the space of just a few days you've seen that completely reverse. vice president harris' rally there just the perfect example of the amount of energy and enthusiasm that we've seen, and part of that is relief from the democratic party they can talk about

i have not to adam fisher who's at the white house. i don't. what kind of tone can we expect from joe biden? what will he be hoping to get across? well, this is a hugely important and historic moment. it is very rare that a president of the united states, a mix up pick time address from the oval office, and particularly to a nice why they are no running, no longer running in an election campaign that just a couple of days ago. they would absolutely could be convinced they could when remember, it's just a number of weeks and still buys. we had that disastrous debate performance in atlanta leading to questions about whether or not he was capable of serving another for years. and there was a lot of speculation, a lot of talk, a lot of polls that suggested he was not going to beat donald trump. that he is going to suggest in the next few minutes, that it was time to pass the torch on to a new generation that the fight for democracy is still very much alive. but that site is in the hands of the american people that they have the right to choose and

they had a very nice event unveiling that we were, i think, something like 75 of the adams descendants at the white house for that event. every every corner of the white house really reflects, i think, mrs. nixon's commitment increasing the collection and to really make certain that the house reflected, the earliest days of the republic, which is when it was built back in 2011, karl was good to mention that i had curated mrs. nixon's centennial exhibit. several of us from the foundation went to the white house to meet with some folks there about. how we might involve them in the centennial celebration of mrs. nixon's birth, which would happen in 2012. and we met with the curator, the white house, phil allman, and remember saying to him, we would really like to a couple of pieces to exhibit out at the library in california. i said you know mrs. nixon acquired more than 400 pieces i'm sure there's something the white house warehouse that you could send out there that would not be missed in the house. and he quickly that everything she collected was of such quality and such historic importance that no

can you elaborate on john quincy adams hiring enslaved people to work for him and for the white house? well, that was one of the things i just mentioned is that it was a practicality issue. they had limited funding. this was far less expensive than than hiring a white worker who would have to be paid a living wage. i mean, it's kind of an early issue of a big wage issue. an early example. absolutely. so we've got some follow up there. it sounds like folks are wondering more specific about john quincy adams, given, you know, the feelings of his parents and things like that. allen is asking could it be that if john quincy adams had paid enslaved people, he would have faced more political controversy? or did he respects the craftsmen ship of the enslaved people he hired? that i don't know. but, you know, once again, i would have to dig through some of the adams papers so that i think the thing that's interesting about him more than anything else was just the fact that it was such a departure from his family and also from later when, if you ever saw the movie on a side, you know, john qui

biden recovering from covid as top democrats expressed growing concern over his bid for the white house. adamumer, hakeem jeffries, nancy pelosi all reportedly worried about a trump win if biden remains on the ticket. >> number four, vallejo police have just confirmed a young person has been killed in a shooting in vallejo. it happened late last night, not too far from city hall at this point, no arrests have been made. >> number five, starting today, bart will begin replacing the fare gates at civic center station in san francisco. these new gates are supposed to be easier to maintain, improve safety, and cut down on fare evasion. >> and number six, we're going to take you to orinda. westbound 24 before saint stephen's drive. there is a big rig blocking the two right lane. speeds are down to nine miles per hour there. the backup is to pleasant hill road. an alternate route is to use mount diablo boulevard. >> number seven, this year's kennedy center honors recipients are out and on the list. director francis ford coppola and bay area based the grateful dead. both will be honored for lifetime

the white house today not providing a reason for the recent visits. the press secretary today adamant biden has only been evaluated by a neurologist three times, each as part of his regular annual physicals. just to be clear, yes or no, has his physician seen a reason to re-evaluate him for parkinson's since the february physical? >> no. the comprehensive report that you all have stands. >> reporter: the president himself out of the public eye today. the first lady out rallying crowds in north carolina and florida. >> for all the talk out there about this race, joe has made it clear that he's all in. >> reporter: but the calls for her husband to get out of the race clearly getting under her skin. >> dr. biden, do you have any message to house democrats who are calling for your husband to drop out of the race? how are you feeling about the state of the race? >> why are you screaming at me? you know me. don't scream at me, just let me talk. >> reporter: this as the president scrambles to contain the defections on capitol hill, telling democrats in a letter he's staying in this race, add

adam fisher. he joins us live from the white house. and then following this address and congress that to y'all, who meets by done as well. it's carmella harris that's on thursday, but also donald trump. or you could see that donald, the, the benjamin netanyahu was playing both sides there. there was a lot of praise for joe biden, for his visit to israel laughter. i october the 7th for the weapons that are being supplied. but there was also a pointed message from benjamin netanyahu, when he said, if you give is the weapons on time, we'll do the job. that's one of the reasons he was invited. there was a dispute between israel and the united states to bite and wasn't ready to at least one crunch of weapons to israel because they weren't essentially 2000 pine bones. he was what he that they could possibly use in rafa. and that would create thousands, if not tens of thousands of wounded if not dead. and so he held back on that, and the republicans in the house decided that that would be a good time to invite benjamin netanyahu, because they

. >> nbc's kelly o'donnell is at the white house for us, and democratic strategist, adam gentleson, former here with us as well. kelly, you've been reporting on this for a bit. what do we know about what joe biden might propose? propose? >> reporter: well at election time, the issue of the supreme court is always on the ballot, and so this is a way for the president to be talking about that issue, which important to the campaign, but also to the white house side, the policy side of this. and when you look at it in the context of the president needing the support of progressives in his party, perhaps now more than ever, this makes a lot of sense in terms of the timing. we've also seen the immunity decision from the court and the president expressing publicly frustrations with some of the decisions that the court has made. so based on our reporting, what we understand is there has been a policy approach to this. what kinds of things, looking at term limits for sitting justices who currently under the federal code have a lifetime appointment, looking at ethics rules that would have a piece th

incident back in 2022 when the president appear to be looking for a dead congressman, adam then event and the white house press secretary afterwards said that he had done that because the congresswoman was top of mind for the president. she said that in both of those examples that i i cited, she would not change her response okay. >> mj lee. thanks so much. our panel joins us now. we have paul begala shermichael singleton, sarah matthews, paul one of the things that you hear from democrats coming out is kind of like this is what it is. and he's the nominee and we got to defeat donald trump, but they're there other than you saw maxine waters very enthusiastically supporting president biden. there seems to be this just acceptance which i guess is one of the stages of grief. here's here's congressman gregory meeks to wolf blitzer earlier today i think what was clear to me in the meeting was that we're all united and understanding and what everyone may have different position, but we understand one thing, the existential threat to the united states of america is donald trump if democrats are making thi

to be a possibility that the mr. vine will continue to be in the white house, or will there be someone else who will be equally adamant about the need for a strong transatlantic relationship. doctor jackson, james bass. i'm the gentleman watched lafond now and then doing an investigation by instrument extra. you have the knowledge that it's troops for you to protect civilians to come off is october 7th pedo attacks. the inquiry detailed a slow and disorganized response to the attack on keyboards. barry, one of the worst hit communities that there is there as defense ministers calling for the stair to inquire into the attack and the government's response. the security cameras capture the moment how most spite is surrounded could boats farai their attack began early in the morning on october 7th and ended with 101 residents killed. the another 32 people taken hostage. the military has now admitted the community wasted hours to help to arrive with forces waiting outside the kibbutz into the afternoon as residents were being killed. so i'll just show them to see my throne. they use royal defense forces failed in the missi

adam fisher. he is at the white house for us. so alan, aside from the beach in congress, what else are we expecting from prime minister netanyahu? i believe is used to meet a president biden tomorrow as well as carla harris. well, let's put this speech in context. it happened. the invite was sent by the republican speaker of the house. around the time there was the fall out between the united states and israel, over the provision of very large palms that was consumed by the by white house. there's always palm is, would be used in rafa. and just by giving that yahoo has just been talking about, there was a fear that that could cause thousands, if not tens of thousands of civilians casualties. and the republicans thought that this would be a win because in the past, benjamin netanyahu, during one of his previous visits here, essentially, attack rock obama for his position on israel. and many republicans felt that this was a chance of getting a job id on his re election chances. and so that's why the invite went out and eventually w

turn the page here with this nato summit here in washington, the president, the white house, his campaign have all been adamantt he has made up his mind and that he isn't going anywhere. it was just two days ago that the president sent that letter to democrats, stating bluntly, quote, i am firmly committed to staying in this race. and he hasn't been budging, which is why pelosi's comments today were so surprising. tonight, his campaign is clear-eyed that it's going to take a lot of work here to get everyone on the same page, and tomorrow will be a critical test of that. the president facing reporters in a rare solo news conference. and we, of course, will be carrying it live here on abc right before "world news tonight," david. >> david: we will carry that live with you, mary, and mary laser focused even with the band behind her for these nato events at the white house. mary, thank you. >>> in the meantime, we move on to the other news tonight, the scare on the runway, the takeoff aborted, sparks on the runway. an american airlines flight blowing several tires during takeoff from tampa to phoenix. emergency cr

candidacy be replaced, but aides are misleading the head of the white house about the ratings, journalists state. so, california congressman adam presidential race because the country is at a crossroads. a second trump presidency would undermine the foundation of our democracy. can the president defeat trump in november? big question, he said. republicans go on the attack and do not mince words. the democrats betrayed us, they threw us into the abyss. joe biden and kamala haris screwed us over. at the republican national convention, all of trump's opponents, nicky haley and ron disantis, are calling on americans to unite. there is only one goal - to send biden to a nursing home. the reds rely on protectionism. europeans trump considers them parasites. he promises to introduce 15% tariffs on... imports of european products and force europe to pay for placement there, and even more with the usa, and to do away with ukraine altogether. all this, of course, goes against the policies of the democrats. biden moves from personal attacks against trump to criticism of the reds' policies. the focus is on project 2025, compared to the fir

adam: president biden and the prime minister of israel meet in a few minutes, the white house, the protestersashley webster, a lot at stake. adam: really years. benjamin netanyahu saying i have known president biden for 40 years but the question is what security commitment is there? what about the threat from tehran's proxies, hezbollah, hamas and so on? don't forget benjamin netanyahu will be meeting with kamala harris and he wants to see if there is a difference in tone and approach. neil: i am wondering as well. is this notion of how kamala harris would be, that it would be a little more hostile to president biden. what do you make of that? >> there is not going to be a lot of daylight between the two but it is clear kamala harris is pushing more to the left and appeasing the progressive side of her party, the anti-benjamin netanyahu and that is going to play out and be interesting how we know kamala harris snubbed benjamin netanyahu, didn't turn up to greet him when he landed in the us, so far it's looking cooler than it is from biden. neil: i would never snub you but you would easily snu

the white house says he's only suffering mild symptoms and will self isolated his home in delaware. it's another blow for the bite and presidential campaign, which came after top democrat, adam shift added his name to those calling for joe biden to drop out of the race ration from the secret service. never the www is benjamin alvarez goober is following the republican national convention for us and the walkie benjamin. nice to see you again. what was your take away from j d francis speech? it was his 1st major test as the running made of donald trump. he officially accepted the invitation that were many remarkable at moments during his speech. first of all, as you said, he was introduced to by his wife. it will show who is the daughter of indian immigrants. he described himself as a working class boy, and in most part of his speech, we actually really focus on his history. there was a lot of f cheering and also a standing ovation for his mother, a former drug addict. that's also it. many stories of her written in his book. so there was a lot of copying the are and is that a lot of praise for donald trump who was sitting here also in this arena that is almost empty now in a l

the key thing here to understand from dearica is at the white house has been adamant that a full transcript of this interview gets published. so that way, anyone who sees him stumble can get access to what he says in full. i just don't think that really matters. i think even showing a full interview doesn't really matter. they want to make sure that it's not going to be edited to make him seem like he's stumbling more than he is. i think at the end of the day, all that really counts is that he can show up for the full thing, which by the way, we don't really have a full understanding of how long this interview is going to be. you know, this the energy for an hour-long interview is very different from a 20 minutes sit down. but he just needs to show up and get through the entire thing without stumbling. that is the key here. >> yeah. and i think people mean in an exaggerated form because everyone in normal conversation intonate, there space of talking, et cetera. so i think people are looking for the real exaggerations, if you will alright. sara fisher. thank you so much. all right. erica th

democratic governor, joining us now we have former republican congressman adam kinzinger of illinois, and former clinton white house press secretary, joe lockhart, congressman to you as we note, that harris still does have her work cut out for her here. there is a lot of excitement and i wonder what you think as we certainly, we're waiting polling numbers, right? we want to get a better sense of where things are. but i wonder what you think of the state of the race here well, i think there's a lot of energy now on the democratic side because think about it. there was a lot of dread between another trump-biden rematch, right? i mean, you heard that from everybody. this is like an x factor thrown in the race. we don't quite know yet how kamala harris is going to do on the campaign trail. early signs fans are pretty good, but definitely she's a different person now. and so that dread that i think a lot of people were feeling, they can now look at and say, well, i either have to go with donald trump again, which has kind of been there, done that, or there's this new opportunity over here with camilla's. so i thin

presidential campaign and comes just hours after top democrat, adam shift added his name to those calling for joe biden to pull out of the race with the white house as president by now. plans to isolate at his home in delaware, he told reporters that he was feeling fine as he bordered air force one in las vegas a little earlier. so the indeed of these stuff on the moans is following developments from washington. and he has more now on his way to set back for the bottom campaign. it seems like the president can catch a break in these days. uh the worst 3 weeks since the campaign started. that's what the campaign acknowledges. said that the last 3 weeks since this, the ominous and horrible, horrible performance at the debate on life television watched by around 35000000 americans. and it's not good times for the president. and there is one thing after another, coming from the perspective of the campaign. now the president is back a, as you said, has canceled this event in las vegas tonight and his way on it is on his way back to delaware, where he will self isolate. and i can tell you um the campaign headquarters for the bottom campaign is in

adams in the golan heights. in the last few minutes, the white house has said the strike was carried out by hezbollah and us authorities us authorities have been in discussions with israeli and lebanese counterparts since the attack to work on a diplomatic solution. lebanon's foreign minister, abdallah bou habib, told the bbc that he didn't think that hezbollah carried out the strike. he condemned the attack and said an international investigation was needed to find out what happened. the government of lebanon first condemns the killing of civilians wherever they are. hezbollah is denying it, and hezbollah usually even in israel has been hitting, you know, military targets, not civilian targets, so in the golan heights it knows that there are civilians there, i don't think hezbollah would do it. there could be another organisation or a mistake by the israelis, or a mistake by hezbollah. i don't know. we need really an international committee to investigate this event. in the last few hours, hezbollah says it has carried out two attacks on israeli soldiers close to the lebanese border in response to the israeli retaliat
