kerry kennedy is here live to respond. plus we have new reporting for you this hour held. donald trump is personally profiting off public and political campaigns, including his own have i got news for you is coming to cnn this fall pros and cons less pro hosted by roy wood junior row with amber ruffin with michaelian black, right. so what are the cons we could run out a new spider but in all seriousness, i, i desperately need this to work out i'm in the middle of a divorce, so i'll leave that to the car provide got news for you. premiere saturday, september 14th at nine on cnn yeah and stream the next day on max. >> in the 1980s, my parents emigrated from nicaragua to america, but as hard as we work, nothing changed because the current system least while you're in the club or you're not if they can do it for their people, why can i do with a mighty and that's why i started bronx crypto. were crypto, you have access to financial services. >> this technology he's about giving people a chance and giving people my community of voice my name is julio and empowering my community

kerry kennedy has already said that her brother's decision to support trump is a betrayal. of family values. chilling footage of any car enthusiast came from vladivostok, where they are investigating the cause of the collapse of a retaining wall. the video from surveillance cameras has spread across telegram channels. between the huge concrete blocks, cracks first appear. the wall begins to buckle under the weight of the encroaching soil, and its entire area falls on parked cars, turning them into a pile of metal. there were no people inside, here are seven cars, apparently, restoration is not... a few days ago vladivostok was covered by heavy rains, the streets were flooded and houses in the region fell. in novokuznetsk, they took on the problem of personnel shortage in public transport. all hope is on the beautiful ladies who are offered to take the driver's seat on special terms. for women, benefits, an individual schedule, a social package and much more, which their male colleagues cannot boast of. the program was even called the women's battalion. it is supervised by personally

that's the message. >> kerry kennedy, thank you very much. from a very diplomatic sister.low

i had kerry kennedy on my show yesterday. she strongly rebukes him. kennedy legacy. >> i truly don't understand who this man is anymore. he is someone who used to be a strong environmental activist. he seemed to have a strong call to public service. he's become this guy who kills a bear and leaves it in central park as a joke. a conspiracy theorist. i just, i don't think it's going to make a difference in the campaign. i don't think he ever was going to do it. i think he's in this all about himself. which by the way, when you've got one guy who's all about himself, endorsing another guy who's all about himself, you could say, you understand how the match works. but ultimately, kamala harris is out there. she's pulling ahead. those guys are in the rear-view mirror. >> they can just be with each other. senator elizabeth warren, thank you so much. i appreciate you joining us tonight. >>> republicans can't figure out how to attack tim walz so now they're bringing his dog into it. i am not joking. i wish i was joking. and yes, this may be the craziest story

that's from kathleen kennedy townsend, courtney kennedy, kerry kennedy, chris kennedy and rory kennedy, joined now by another member of the kennedy family, robert f. kennedy junior's cousin, former congressman patrick kennedy, son of the late senator ted kennedy patrick, it's good to see you, congressman. thanks for being with us what is it like to i mean, on a personal level? we'll seeing your cousin with the former president. and do you agree with the statement of his siblings that this is a betrayal of the values your family holds dear so i love bobby al-awda. >> he is we got to spend a lot of time this summer together. we all live next to each other and on cape cod and the summertime and my kids were playing over at his house and were on the beach together. i think of him as a cousin than this you know, case of him supporting president trump, obviously, there's nothing about donald trump that is anywhere close to root reflecting the legacy of robert kennedy's father. and my uncle, president kennedy, my dad, anyone in my family? you know, our family believes in democracy. we believe

his sister, kerry kennedy, posted this statement, signed by fourfamily members, on x — saying that her desicion to endorse trump is a betrayal of the values that our father and our family hold most dear. it is a sad ending to a sad story. so what impact could it have on november's election? well — it's impossible to say for certain — most of his supporters are independent swing voters. here's what we know of his influence so far: as of wednesday, he was polling atjust under five per cent nationally. most of his support is made up of independent voters, who didn't want to vote for either donald trump orjoe biden. in fact — his support almost halved whenjoe biden quit the race injuly. you can see it here on this graph, a huge drop in his support coming as soon as voters were given an option that wasnt trump or biden. with polls suggesting a large proportion of those voters switched their support to kamala harris. but what about those who remained loyal to rfk, even afterjoe biden left the race? well, take a look at this august poll from reuters/ispos. kamala harris leading donald trump b

and make america healthy again that is why rfk junior backed trump but according according to kerry kennedy that desecrates the family's values, the trump hatred rules. then came this a cheery little note showing the president and vice president happily working for us in d.c. unfortunately that is not accurate. the president is not in d.c. he is on his second week of beachfront vacation the picture misleads we do not see him or hear from him. it's a very fair question to ask who is running our country. it's not good enough to say he is monitoring things and then draw a misleading picture of where he is, then a very revealing exchange between senator tom cotton and abc jonathan car, you have to watch us. >> taxpayer-funded health insurance to illegal aliens they are taking away health insurance on the job for 170 million americans banning gas cars, confiscating firearms. >> what you mean take it away health insurance what are you talking about a man she said when she ran for president xi wants a limited private health insurance on the job with 70 million americans. >> that is not her positio

here is the sister of rfk jr., kerry kennedy >> i think if my dad were alive today, the real robert kennedy would have detested almost everything donald trump represents. his lying, his selfishness, his rage, his cynicism, hatred, racism, fascist sympathies. >>> we have a number of correspondents ready to go through all of the days headlines for us. we are going to start with aaron gilchrist at the white house once again. what will this week look like for the harris campaign, aaron? >> reporter: it's going to be busy. the phrase in the campaign use, alex is we are not taking our foot off the gas. that's how they say it after the convention last week in chicago that really was something that the campaign described as energizing for people who have been already supportive of vice president harris and her running mate, tim walz, the governor of minnesota but also for people who have newly come to the campaign. we learned this morning that the campaign managed to raise about $540 million since vice president harris took over the top of the ticket. a 2 million of that just last week alone during

kennedy, rfk was a democrat himself for most of his life and his sister kerry kennedy telling our elizabethchulze she loves her brother, but abhors what he did. >> anybody who loves our family, who respects our work on civil liberties know that donald trump is their enemy. >> reporter: the harris campaign reaching out to his voters saying for any american out there tired of donald trump and is looking for a new way forward ours is a campaign for you. leaving chicago, vice president kamala harris sounding confident. in her historic acceptance speech taking on her opponent and arguing hers is the campaign looking to the future. >> in many ways, donald trump is an unserious man, but the consequences of putting donald trump back in the white house are extremely serious. >> reporter: now democrats have tried to downplay the significance of this rfk endorsement. saying that he has long enjoyed the backing from some of the same donors that back trump. trump at one point called him the dumbest member of the kennedy family, but yesterday said it was possible he could have a role in any trump adminis

he immediately hit the campaign trail with him but his sister, kerry kennedy went all in for kamala harrisn phoenix just yesterday, and she did not mince words. >> everything that my family has worked for for years, and were he alive today, the real robert kennedy would have detested almost everything donald trump represents, his lying, his selfishness, his rage, his cynicism, his hatred, his racism, his fascism, his criminal convictions. >> most of the kennedy clan is in harris's camp, including jfk's grandson, saying his cousin getting into the race made the easiest decision of all time, to vote for harris even easier. >>> up next, the controversial arrest of the ceo of a major social media app, and the new questions it's raising about who should be held liable if a platform is used for criminal activity. l activity ays, you can feel like a spectator in your own life with chronic migraine, 15 or more headache days a month each lasting 4 hours or more. botox® prevents headaches in adults with chronic migraine before they start. and treatment is 4 times a year. in a survey, 91% of users wi

his sister, kerry kennedy, had some very critical words on cnn this morning when it came to her brothersndorsement of trump. here they are were he alive today the real robert kennedy would have detested almost everything donald trump represents. his lying, selfishness racism, hatred fascist sympathies, deliberate misinformation about vaccines. frankly, outraged and disgusted by bobby's my brothers, gady, an obscene embrace. of donald trump it wasn't that long ago, just last month. in fact, that rfk junior himself used to feel the same way about donald trump's cnn's tom foreman is here with us tom joining the trump team, a pretty big 184 rfk junior who has had some choice words for the former president. >> you can understand the shock of his family. you could even understand the shock of his fans. look at some of the things that he has been saying about donald trump over past years, over past weeks, over past months, old that, bully, terrible president threat to democracy. he's all about xenophobia. he's bigoted. he is full of prejudice, scary, appalling. he is full of hatred. these are t

we will see how that gets sorted out to the family statement being issued by the kennedys, kerry kennedy just put it out on x formerly twitter saying that essentially their brother bobby's decision to endorse trump today is a betrayal of the values that our father and our family hold most dear. it is a sad ending to a sad story, and it is signed by five members of the kennedy family, who, as you noted, priscilla had joined president biden a few months ago and putting out a an endorsement of biden as president and essentially stepping away from rfk jr. here comes donald trump now, and las vegas, let's go ahead and listen to the former president. >> is that nice place and i'm just talking to avia. you get thousands of people outside on the street. they want to get into your restaurant. i'll avi, we're going to have to expand it yeah. >> right. >> and thank you very much. i want to thank everybody for being here would you set a very nice endorsement from rfk junior i'll be talking about that. >> we're heading out right after this. we're going to be going to arizona will be talking about tha

kerry kennedy , who's one >> no.o's one of, robert f kennedy's sisters sisters said that it was obscene and that her father would detested almost everything that donald trump stands for. so they're not very happy with him at all. >> but does it change the dynamic? the dynamic in america at the moment is fascinating, isn't it? >> yeah, it certainly is. well, there's so much momentum behind kamala harris. and we were just talking about it before we came on air. we didn't really know her. i mean, she was famous, but we didn't know her at all did we. so it's been it's because vice presidents are never really given a chance to shine. they're not meant to, are they ? not meant to, are they? >> i mean, biden was vice president for eight years, and i didn't really know what he was about at all. no, until he became president. and now, kamala, kamala's coming out and my goodness. and they put on a good show . yes. mind you, good show. yes. mind you, they've got a lot of former presidents to come out and do big rousing speeches

the kennedy family disowned him, his sister kerry said her brother has desecrated the family's values, trump hatred on full display. donald trump suggested that bow out of the september 18 debate on abc, trump objected to carl's interview with senator tom cotton this editor correctly pointed out that kamala harris has not actually said publicly what her health policy is, trump says abc is biased. harris says she will do a media interview by the end of this week, does she need to, she's not sure. she brought an incredible $540 million since biden left the campaign. the president himself is on his second week of beach vacation, he is not in d.c. as a white house message suggests. frequent question who is in charge of our government. let's get to the markets, stocks close to all-time highs on rate cut expection and expectation. rising concern of the preemptive strikes in babylon. the gallup 70, s&p update, the nasdaq on the downside 18 points lower. the price of gold is doing well with all the action than the mideast, $2559 an ounce, bitcoin going to 63000, interest-rate start with the t

kennedy running. you were going to say what the and jump ship. and then there are the people who voted for candidate kerry because of his anti-vax, another kind of things and they might go well for trump. i mean, he was taking votes away from trump. and again, forget ever forget the polls. kamala harris may be up in polls, but this time of the election, both hillary clinton and joe biden were further up and she is right now over donald trump. the polls are wrong in 2016. they were not great in 2020. we have no idea how they're going to land in 2024, all we do know is everyone knows it's going to be close. laser thing close. so don't listen to the political pundits. don't listen to me. i'm micah and whatever i just said, forget michael, thank you so much. >> thank you, michael. started i'll say what city hall insiders won't. we have a drug, homelessness, and economic recovery crisis, because the system that's supposed to fix things is the problem. record budgets. fewer officers. business killing bureaucracy. the insiders won't change a system built for their benefit. i'm daniel lurie and san francisco need

kennedy or johnson could not w have done better. >> i don't think so. this is about, speculation and counterfactual, so whatov would eisenhower or, excuse me while johnson or kerrye been like? i don't really know. but they had not conquered europe, you know? they had not had his experience. they don't seem to be to have the same -- lyndon johnson in vietnam have the coolest? i don't think so. >> evan thomas you spent 40, 45 years as a contemporaneous journalist. how do you make the sacred into being in a story as well? at one time was at a sideline? s catherine graham. her husband, phil graham, said the journalism is the rough first draft of history. i was already in the history business somewhat in journalism, and in history, i'm in the journalism business. i'm a journalistic historian. i'm not a great archivist. i use archives but i depend on scholars. when i get into a subject issue good try to find out who the great scholars here who have devoted their lives to this, know a lot more about this than i do. so i'm on a -- an historian who goes and finds the deep dive scholars, and i use their work and i find them. talk to them. help me. i'm doing it right now,
