biden’s ride was not, he was not at morehouse college, this is a famous educational institution, it isr the fact that he graduated from at one time martin luther king, jr. biden was literally greeted there with protest; students and african americans who actively support palestine in the current conflict condemn the white house for the policy of connivance with israel that the american government is now pursuing. this it's not just about palestine, we black people remember mass incarceration, cease fire now, stop sending weapons to a genocidal regime, respect international law, and don't try to use us for political influence, we are not pawns, we don't want to be part of your campaign . but this frame, here we see how biden, a student, an african american, a graduate, simply turned away from... probably can even be called the quintessence of everything that is happening, a symbol, if you like, of that the panic that democrats are now experiencing, not only students, but also middle-aged people are turning away from them, this is very understandable, because the horror stories with whic

it's why we've said we want to build morehouses, but reforming the planning rules which hold back house—buildingders offer the chance to explore plenty of topics, like the prime minister leaving the 0—day commemorations early. d—day commemorations early. do you understand that for quite a lot of people watching, i think, they simply think that the basic duty of the prime minister, the duty, was for you to be in that photograph, and not david cameron?— to be in that photograph, and not david cameron? well, that's wh i've not david cameron? well, that's why i've apologised _ why i've apologised unreservedly for the mistake and i hope people can find it in their hearts to forgive me. my in their hearts to forgive me. my duty is also to make sure that this is a country which looks after our veterans, which is why i'm proud that there is a veterans minister sitting around the cabinet table. find around the cabinet table. and what about — around the cabinet table. and what about the _ around the cabinet table. and what about the reform uk leader nigel farage, who manages to haunt, bamboozle and excite

he went to morehouse, he said, what is democracy if you have to be 10 times better than anyone else to get a fair shot? that seems like pandering to me. black voters under 50, he led by 80 points in 2020, now by 37. still, a lot. but, he lost 43 points off a key constituency. student loans, he has forgiven $144 million in student loans. only 36% of student debt holders like it. i mean, if you can't win the people you are pandering to, i mean, i get it, politics is somewhat about pandering. that is not even an insult. you are supposed to be able to do what you want to some degree and also be a leader. but, if you are not winning these groups -- and he has lost 8% off women since 2020 -- yet, i read in the polls that he pulled ahead this week. explain that to me? >> because trump is psycho and i think people are starting to see that. i mean, honestly. >> we have known that. >> but, i think if you look, the last few years, trump has kind of been in and out of the press. everybody is still consumed with him. but, when you start seeing him talk again, i do think the felonies have hurt him,

so we're developing campaigns in morehouse school of medicine and curriculum around that.but i know these individual things that i think that people can do. but yes, but they're not always successful, which is why people face, don't you think, face time during book, during visits with their health professionals, you know. yeah hi dr. blackstock, my name is shin. i'm a clinical psychologist in the area and i, i work with in particular. i just wanted to say thank you for that op ed you wrote in 2019, which was something that was really resonant and shared among myself and my colleagues working in boston, in, in a safety net hospital just at the time it was really resonant. but as somebody who a black woman who is a physician is now very publicly visible, is sort of like seen as an exemplar in many ways. and i think a lot of people here probably resonate with that feeling of being expected, represent more than just you are as a person, right? where do you and how do you find rest in small ways and, in like larger ways? yeah. thank you for that question question. but that is a

he went to morehouse, what is democracy, 10 times better than anyone else to get a fair shot, panderingack voters under 50. now by 37, still a lot but lost 43 points off of the key constituency. student loans, he has forgiven $144 billion in student loans, 36% of student debtholders like it. if you can't win the people you are pandering to, politics is about pandering, you do what people want to a certain degree and also be a leader but if you are not winning these votes and he has lost 8% off of women since 2020 and yet i read in the polls he pulled ahead this week. charlie: when you accuse the supporters who don't support him as racist, early-stage pondering, the government had these things, the thing i can't solve it is accommodation of both things and pitch the end of the line, all these grand promises, this is the utopia they've been promising so long. will: it would be beyond calling them racist to saying you are not black if you don't vote for me. that's got to be the end terminal on the pandering train. charlie: you misdiagnosed your own race if you think you are going to vote f

so if you look at the efforts of the last week or two, saying to black voters, and morehouse and in philadelphiasay, i need black voters and here's the problems with donald trump iton . on gaza, i will talk about israel and and this war. he is not unaware that he has a problem. you can see that the uncommitted vote is down for michigan and minnesota from before. a bit of consolidation pretty needs that numbers to be well up over 90% to win the general election. that base has to come in very strongly. the number of voters that it will show up in the general election way outnumber the ones in the party but if he can fix his primary problem it suggests it can also trike -- she can also bring back the enthusiasm he needs to win the general election. >> let's look at the key races. that help decide control of the senate this fall. in new jersey after last night, democratic congressman auntie kim is officially the democratic candidate. but the incumbent -- andy kim is the democratic candidate. bob menendez is now running as an independent making a three way race between kim, and the republican candida

so he's lost 14 points there he went to morehouse. he said, what is democracy? we have to be ten times better than anyone else to get a fair shot that seemed like pandering to me black voters under 50 he led by 80 points in 2020. now by 37 still a lot, but he lost 43 points off the key constituency. student loans. >> he's forgiven $144 billion in student loans only 30 per 36% of student debt holders like it. i mean, if you can't win the people you're pandering to. yeah. i mean, i get it. politics is somewhat about pandering. that's not an insult you spoke to do what people want to a certain degree, also be a leader. but if you're not winning these groups and he's lost 8% off women since 2020 and yet i read in the polls, he pulled ahead this week explain that to me because trump's psycho and i think people are starting to see that if you look, the last few years, trump's kinda been in and out of the press. he still consumed everybody's consumed with them. but when you start seeing him talk again, i do think the felonies have heard him, but when you see him talk a

even saw that with students at morehouse that say look, when you come down here, just talk to us aboutamerican voters saying we like joe biden, but like the democrats but you know what, we want to hear more from them about the future. that is i think normal, but also remember that the older snapshot in time. that there is some time for joe biden to go out and talk to black voters. i always say that kamala harris is a really great surrogate for the administration and for the campaign and even if you don't think she's been underutilized, they could certainly be utilized more to direct a lot of those messages. >> i'm just thinking biden and the president and trump with set to debate in just ten days. the importance of that, the weight and influence that debate could have, you think? >> well, i think it will be an extraordinary, extraordinarily important debate in the context of this entire campaign. in part because it was joe biden that challenged donald trump to the debate and in some ways, has drawn the former president to respond joe biden's terms. so i think it was very important stra

. >> brian: the speech writer didn't because more morehouse and charlamagne tha god,. >> ainsley: mightite or hispanic saying they're trying to take us back, excuse me, trump is trying to take us back. that's just not true. the black community knows that is so wrong, correct? >> steve: ultimately, what they are trying to do it's an election year, going back to where we started, he, joe biden is in trouble with a number of his core item gratification. that's one of the reasons right now they are freaking out at the white house that across the river from the white house is the commonwealth of virginia. right now, the latest poll we showed it's neck and neck between donald trump and joe biden. i think they are tied at 48 or 49%. >> brian: three straight polls. >> steve: 48% right there. joe biden won that pretty reliably blue state by 10 points four years ago. glenn youngkin, the current governor was on with sean hannity last night and said, you know what? this state is up for grabs. >> i believe it is. and that's exactly what the polls are showing us. just like georgia and pennsylvania an

morehouse is literally right there where that smoke is. >> delgado says he will stay here as long as he can my? parents are that airstream might there were ready to go. we're going to do what we can to just stay vigilant. >> about 8,000 people have evacuated the rio dso areas since monday, the mountain village is an eerie, smoke-filled ghost town. there are a few people left though, like jordan route. i imagined them moment like this is pretty nerve-wracking yeah. >> yeah, i thought i didn't think it was going to come this close to us, but it happened so fast. >> our conversation was interrupted by police urging residents to evacuate we managed to find our way into michael scott's neighborhood in ruidoso. many of the homes were burned to the ground but somehow michael's home is still standing slice of good news surrounded by devastation and sadness we were able to show michael scott a picture of his home. he said he had tears of joy seen that his home was still intact, but he and thousands of others are still not in the clear wildfires continue to burn, but the good news is, is that

may be able to add a lot of information and intelligence for the israeli military to go after some morehouse. >> it really is remarkable that they were able to rescue these hostages eight months after the war started on tovar seven max. if and when benny gantz announces his withdrawal from the emergency war cabinet he is a centrist. what kind of impact do you see that happening on netanyahu's government? do you expect? to see more of a hard line approach that's very hard to say. >> i'm not sure that that much is going to change. i mean, benny gantz can lead, but it's not going to bring down the government the issue that could actually bring down the government is question of conscripting ultra ultra-orthodox men into the israeli military because some of the ultra religious parties in the the cabinet are completely opposed to that. and if the israeli supreme court gives the go ahead to conscript the ultra-orthodox, that could actually be a crisis that could bring down the government. i don't think that the benny gantz departure will bring down the cabinet. i mean, i think my it's a little bit

, half the whole biden accountable after hearing the president deliver a commencement address at morehouse college last month and focusing on his november choice, he sees it differently for my disagreements previously do not matter as much as the two people that we have as choices here. >> and to me, present former president donald trump isn't an option whatsoever back at the beehive, davis is optimistic for the fall and for her status quo. sounds just fine. >> you know what you're getting? with joe biden. he doesn't pull any punches. he's a straight shooter and i'm happy to see more of the same the fact that georgia was a battleground four years ago actually came as a surprise to both sides this time. >> that's not the case. the biden campaign has more than a dozen offices open nearly 75 staffers on the ground, fill that is one of the big differences here. the biden campaign is spending money to trump campaign is not yet, but when you talk to voters, it is not a done deal for donald trump here by any means, this is a conservative state there are some open minds look to the suburbs here. a

morehouse is literally right there that smoke is. >> delgado says he'll stay here as long as he can my parents are that airstream might there we're ready to go. >> we're going to do what we can to just stay vigilant about 8,000 people have evacuated the rio dso areas since monday, the mountain village is an eerie, smoke-filled ghost town. there are a few people left though, like jordan route, i imagined a moment like this is pretty nerve-wracking. >> yeah. yeah, i thought i didn't think it was going to come this close to us, but she happened so fast. >> our conversation was interrupted by police urging residents to evacuate immediately we managed to find our way into michael scott's neighborhood in ruidoso many of the homes were burned to the ground but somehow michael's home is still standing slice of good news surrounded by devastation and sadness and what we were able to get a picture of michael scott's home to him this afternoon. he said he had tears of joy in seeing his home intact, but he and thousands of others there's are still not in the clear. if you look out in there in the

people are in fact political prompts in a photo-op contrast that with president biden speaking at morehouse college, the alma mater of martin luther king and julian bond, i contrast the numbers that is to say from moving his support among in the black community in states like pennsylvania and michigan up from the single digits to yes to double digits, but low double-digits. the point being here is these poles at this point showed some volatility with do not constitute a testament to the popularity, if you will. >> former president trump among african americans that's absolutely true, though, for the biden team with margins in certain states battleground states being so thin. if trump gets close to 20%, i mean, that would be catastrophic for biden's reelection hopes. so how do they turn that trend around? >> i think it's incredibly important having the nwa cp and having led voter turnout efforts, it's important to focus on, yes securing the support of the black community, but also ensuring that that support translates into votes. so in other words, president biden is competing not so much wi

morehouse is literally right there. were that smoke is. >> delgado says he'll stay here as long as he can making meals and keeping one eye on the fires and ready to hook up the truck and race out my parents are in that airstrike. might there and with my brother, matthew and their dogs we're ready to go. we're going to do what we can to just stay vigilant about 8,000 people have evacuated the rio dso areas since monday, the mountain village is an eerie, smoke-filled ghost town. there are a few people left though, like jordan who we found spraying water on his home and trees. >> i imagined a moment like this is pretty nerve wracking yeah. yeah, i thought i didn't think he was going to come this close to us, next. >> you haven't so fast. >> our conversation was interrupted by police urging residents to evacuate immediately we managed to find our way into michael scott's neighborhood in rio. do so, many of the homes were burned to the ground but. somehow michael's home is still standing slice of good news, surrounded by dev

so as you saw the president's remarks, you saw in recent events, thinking back to his speech at morehouseollege, speech at an n double acp events out in detroit. the biden campaign working to hold onto that and rebuild that support from black voters, which will once again be key if he's trying to win a second term to the white house arlette time. >> thank you so much. john new fall out this morning after donald trump vowed to walk side-by-side with a group of conservative political activists that opposes abortion in all cases and calls the procedure child sacrifice in a video message, trump touted his past accomplishments on the pro-life agenda and said that democrats are against their religion, cnn's alayna treene is here now with the very latest alaina while good morning, john. yes. donald trump addressed this suit group. it was part of their southern baptist convention and annual meeting that they have and he really honed in on saying luck democrats are against your religion as, as you mentioned, and tried to convince them to continue to support his campaign. what i find really interes
