Transcripts For CNN CNN Newsroom With Fredricka Whitfield 20241006

Im Jim Acosta in for fredricka whitfield. We begin this hour on the president ial Campaign Trail. Now, just about a month away from Election Day in both campaigns revving up their supporters, appealing to undecided voters in key Battleground States during this final critical stretch of the race, voting already underway across several states and polls showing there it is again, Vice President Kamala Harris and former President Donald Trump locked in basically a dead heat at this point, their campaigns now navigating several big News Stories that could obviously shape the outcome of this election from the war in the Middle East to the devastating aftermath of helene another storm on the way to the florida Gulf Coast, apparently in a surprisingly strong jobs report that just came out at The End of this week. But lets start in battleground, pennsylvania, where in the next couple of hours, former President Donald Trump will take the stage In The City of butler at the site of his first Assassination Attempt back on July 13. At the same Location Trump narrowly survived an attempt on his life when a gunman opened fire and a bullet grazed his ear, one attendee at that rally died and two others were also injured. And Cnns Alayna Treene joins us now from Butler Alayna i mean, this Assassination Attempt on the former president back in july has really become a theme for trump. Trump on the Campaign Trail, he talks about his surrogates, talk about it, and theyre going to talk about it again today thats exactly right when i talk to Donald Trumps campaign about what to expect out of this particular rally. They said itd be different from a Traditional Trump Political speech though i imagine youre going to hear a lot of those same themes. Jim and said there really are trying to do a lot to honor the community, which of course was upended after that July 13 Fascination Attempt on Donald Trump. And specifically though theyre really trying to do a lot to honor the victims, particularly Corey Comperatore who was killed that day. I actually im not sure if you can see behind me, but in the crowd where god, he was Corey Comperatore, it was sitting on that in the bleachers behind the podium. Theyve actually put up. He was a firefighter. They put up his old Firefighter Jacket and his how helmet and also just had Sculpture Artist or a painter, i should say, i get up on stage and do a painting that ended up revealing him a lot of folks because today on the victims, also those who were injured were also going to see some pretty high folk, her profile republicans here with Donald Trump that includes elon musk. Of course. Remember here endorse Donald Trump just moments after that shooting happened in july for us in a seat. Jd vance are going to see members of Donald Trumps family, including Eric Trump and laura trump. There were really trying to make this a huge event now, as for the people on the ground, i spoke to many rally attended some of whom were here on July 13 and more recount what do those experiences. But others who were not and all of them said that theyre glad Donald Trump came back, that they knew that he said, and i promised that he would, and they do so. I guess is somewhat of giving them the ability to turn the page on what had happened. Take a listen to what cherry told me im happy for today because butler can now not have the reputation of having a near Assassination Attempt. Its redeemed. I think as of today you heard, i was shared on donald woman who lives here here in butler. She said that she believes the community is now redeemed. Ive heard a lot of similar stories here on the ground. Jim all right. Alayna treene. Thank you very much. We appreciate it any minute now, Vice President Kamala Harris is set to arrive in North Carolina to survey the aftermath of helene and that stage, she you can see right there join Base Andrews earlier this afternoon, she lands in charlotte and just a short time from now where she will get an Ontheground Briefing of Storm Recovery efforts. A large portion of western North Carolina, of course, suffered catastrophic damage when helene swept through that region last weekend, cnn, Sunlen Serfaty joins us now sunlen, were getting close closer to the Vice President s Event And Briefing down there in North Carolina, what can you tell us thats right, jim, Vice President Kamala Harris, leaving here in washington short time ago and shell be landing on the ground in charlotte, North Carolina shortly on this, of course, is a trip where shes eager to show her competency, eager to show leadership in the wake of a Natural Disaster as the southeast continues to dig out of that devastating storm that hit their area last week. Now, harris, when she is on the ground, shall see aid being distributed they to residence to well hear a briefing about the latest Recovery Efforts. She also talk to those who have been devastated by the, by the flooding and the aftermath. The Hurricane Hearing firsthand from people who have been impacted by the hurricane and likely shes going to get give an update on the federal response. Now, this visit is in her capacity as the Vice President , not as a president ial candidate, but its certainly comes at a critical moment in he campaigned just about 30 days to Election Day. So certainly this visit is seen through the lens of politics, and thats why weve seen her over the course of the last week in part go to these Battleground States for John Wednesday Today in North Carolina that have been damaged by the hurricane, ravaged by the hurricane. And weve seen her opponent, former President Donald Trump traveling to Battleground States that were ravaged by the hurricane as well. He was in georgia earlier this week speaking there, he injected politics straight into his visit. There really pointing a finger at the administration claiming without evidence that the biden administration and it hasnt been holding back a. That is something that the White House strongly just the White House is pushing back on and certainly something that leads, optically speaking speaking in Kamala Harris in her capacity as the Vice President , will be pushing back Floor Today when shes on the ground looking at the aid being distributed to the resonance there. Jim all right. Sunlen serfaty. Thank you very much for more on the Vice President s campaign lets bring in democratic congressman Gabe Amo of rhode island. Hes a surrogate for the Harris Campaign. Congressman. Thank you so much for being with us. We appreciate it so much. As you know, North Carolina is a critical battleground state. The Vice President is going there to get a briefing on Relief Efforts i guess one of the questions that i have is, should the Vice President respond to foreign President Donald Trump, who has been making a number of false claims as you know, about the Administrations Response to helene, would you like to see her respond to that . What do you think . Well, first off, thanks for having me, jim. Look, the Vice President is doing exactly what she should be doing. With people who had been devastated. And of course, my heart goes out to all the people across the southeast and she is focused on the response that includes moving the machinery of government hundred million dollars plus from fema flowing for response, moving to respond with thousands of personnel, thats what you should focus on in the politics of secondary to the pain that so many people are experiencing and whats your response to what former President Trump has been saying that he plays politics at the worst times. This is a time where we should be coming together. There is not a democratic response. Are republican response to an emergency like this. There is a response that it relies on the compassion of our leaders and to move forward in supporting people at their time of need. And weve seen, and weve heard reports that President Trump was known to play politics when it came to response, asking for information about the types of voters and the information related to his electoral prospects, rather then supporting people when they need government. So i dont think we should take him seriously and we should focus on the people who need our help and congressman, i do want to get to some politics. I mean, youve been meeting in North Carolina. My understanding with African American leaders there about Kamala Harris getting into the Oval Office . Then the latest Cnn Polling shows that shes got a very huge lead over the former president when it comes to a black voters who are likely to cast ballots in this upcoming election. Im just wondering though, one of the you probably know this all too well. One of the concerns for the Harris Campaign as with black men and whether or not shes going to have the kind of support that she needs from black men to win come november, whats your sense of that . Whats been your message to make sure that African American men come out to vote for Kamala Harris well, im here in North State where the black vote matters significantly. Remember, President Biden only lost this state to former President Trump by 1. 3 . And so we have to share the message of the accomplishments of the bidenharris administration, but more importantly, where were going in the future, which is why the Vice President has been focused on things like wealth creation, emphasizing the importance of Home Ownership of small business growth, of ensuring that everybody has the opportunity to thrive in our economy by expanding the child tax credit. So its got to be anchored in results anchored in deliver to bring material benefits to all americans, but especially black americans, who are going to play such a vital role in this election and as you know, congressman former President Barack Obama is going to be getting out on the Campaign Trail over the next several days. Is he seen as sort of a closure on all of this . How does his presence its out on the Campaign Trail help Kamala Harris at this point, do you think well, hes such an effective messenger . I am an alumnus of both of his president ial campaigns and his White House, as well as working in the Biden Harris White House. So i know that when you think about the ark of his journey as president , that Connective Tissue to what this administration has done. The historic work of the Rescue Plan and the infrastructure law, so much more, he will build a bridge between that promise of hope and turning it into action under a harris administration. So i look forward to seeing him out there delivering the message like no one else can all right. Democratic congressman gave amo of rhode island. Thank you very much for your time. We appreciate it thanks for having me. Alright. And still to come quote, israel will fight until the battle is one that quote from israeli prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu, addressing the expanding the conflict in the Middle East.

A spokesperson adding that 440 hezbollah fighters have been killed in combat. Israel and hezbollah are continuing to exchange fire today, cnns cameras capturing this smoke rising from israels attacks on beirut suburbs, while Hezbollah Launched Rockets into northern israel, cnns Nic Robertson is in Tel Aviv. Nic and were also hearing from the israeli prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu today. Hes been using some fiery rhetoric. What can you tell us yeah, he has been reminding the public that the country is fighting on seven different fronts, not only against hamas in south but hamas in the West Bank in lebanon with hezbollah. And iranian backed militia militias in iraq, the houthis and of course, iran and is telling the country to stand together, but he has a lot of criticism for the french president today, a emmanuel macron, who has taught about the possibility of withholding weapons, supplies to israel based on the high civilian casualty its all not just in gaza, but most recently in lebanon as well. And this was what prime Minister Netanyahu had to say to that were fighting against iran, which last week fired over 200 ballistic missiles directly at israel and which stands behind the seven front war against israel . As israel fights the forces of Barbarism Led by iran all civilized countries should be standing firmly by Israels Side you had President Macron and some other western leaders are now calling for an Arms Embargo against Israel Shame on them is iran imposing an Arms Embargo on hezbollah and the houthis and hamas and its other proxies of course, now the axis of turkey stands together uk did withhold some licenses. About 30 or so at a 354 Weapon Systems to be sold to israel. And i think what were seeing is European Countries really want to put down a marker about whats happening in lebanon the british foreign Secretary David Lammy today spoke about his concerns that so many medical facilities are being hit by the idf inside the south of lebanon. So raising that as a concern so i think were hearing more pushback against israels operations in lebanon evelyn, from the europeans right now and neck are we hearing anything were about to potential retaliation by israel aimed at iran evening said that the army is ready, that theyll do it when the best time that suits israel. But i think the best indication we have about how tense the situation is. Many Commemoration Events that big gatherings of people that would do to happen plus the country. One of them here in Tel Aviv, where there were thousands upon thousands of people expected the organizers of that Anniversary Commemoration have told all the people whove gotten tickets for it. Look, please dont come. Were going to broadcast this out, but the threshold on crowds gathering outside here central israel is 1,000 and they just dont want to put people in danger because they know that that today when Hamas Hezbollah could respond, israel might strike iran. Iran might respond. So i think youve got a sense that for this day, october the seventh, at least is falling in a frame that gives concern for the government here absolutely. All right. Nic robertson. Thank you very much. In Tel Aviv for us. We appreciate it in the meantime synagogues and places of worship in New York are getting increased Police Presence through the anniversary of the October 7 attacks in israel yesterday, Law Enforcement officials were made aware of Bomb Threats targeting synagogues across this date, which turned out to be unfounded. Cnns Gloria Pazmino is in new York Warriors glory that has to have people on edge right now. What can you tell us yeah, and we have been watching here at Template Manual in manhattan, one of the largest temples In The City. And in the world, they significant symbol for Judaism Hearing for new York City as Police Officers have been keeping watch over the building for the past several hours. Now, service is not until sundown today. We are in the middle of the sabbath. So theres no one inside the temple, right now, but there will be service here tonight. And following those Bomb Threats that were called into several synagogues across the state, governor Kathy Hochul said yesterday that she was going to deploy the State Police to partner with local Law Enforcement agencies to make sure that communities were being kept safe. Now its important to highlight, jim, that none of those threats were deemed credible. But because we have the first anniversary of our Tolber Seventh coming up on monday, as well as the rising tensions in the Middle East, which you were just talking about. There is the potential for disruption according to Law Enforcement and thats what all of these protective measures are about. Its not just here in New York Law Enforcement is on high alert across different cities around on the country. And both the fbi and the department of Homeland Security said that the upcoming anniversary on monday as well as the fact that we are in the middle of the high jewish holidays could be a motivation for some extreme remains actors to commit acts of violence. Again, no credible threats around new York City so far, but the nypd is exciting expected to keep their presence out here for the next several days for the next few weeks, the anniversary of October 7, the firstyear anniversary is on monday, and then we go into yom kippur war, which is a very important holiday in the jewish calendar. So Law Enforcement here in new York City, as well as an other major cities around the country. Still on high alert. Jim. All right. Gloria pazmino with that very important update in New York. Thank you so much. We appreciate it. When we come back at least 227 people have died across six states in the aftermath of Hurricane Helene Number just keeps going up hundreds of thousands are still without power.

Com today devastated parts of the southeast, tropical Storm Milton has formed in the Gulf Of Mexico. The storm is forecast to strengthen and bring Lifethreatening Storm Surge to the Florida Coast here to tell us more, Cnn Meteorologist elisa raffa. This is a very worrisome sign what can you tell us elisa yeah. I mean, were ahead of schedule, ahead of pace for the Hurricane Season. We typically dont get that M Storm until The End of october. So we are about two to three weeks i had a schedule. Its milton, 40 mile per hour winds sitting in the Gulf Of Mexico right now expected to intensify. We already have Flood Watches in effect for the florida Opinion Insula were some four to eight inches of rain is possible because we have a front that is draped just north of florida. Thats going to give them rain before Milton Hits and will steer Milton Street into the florida peninsula. I do want to point out that that means were not looking at this turn to the north into the carolinas. So that should at least help get the mountain communities out of this storm for this time around, were also looking at Sea Surface temperatures that are incredibly warm. Middle and upper 80s. So as we said with so many of the storm so far this season, this will act as fuel for rapid intensification as we go into monday, were looking at a hurricane already, and it could grow in strength pretty rapidly. Category two hurricane, maybe even teetering on category three as it makes landfall somewhere on that florida peninsula, it takes its time to get out into the open waters, but it takes its entire truck over these very warm ocean waters. Again, thats fuel, and thats food. Then it heads towards the florida peninsula, may be sometime late tuesday into wednesday, but again, you can see the outcomes already flashing a part of the peninsula here and look how far this rain stretches, right . Were looking at it from top to bottom, from jacksonville down to miami. We could be looking at some Rain Totals of four to eight inches some isolated totals up to ten inches that could definitely cause some flooding. Also worried about Storm Surge where that ai goes. Will really depend on who gets to worst Storm Surge Thats Something that well have to watch very closely and again, its coming on. Whats been such an active season already, look at how many landfalls weve had. Just this season alone along the Gulf Coast from texas through louisiana, and to florida. So its been very busy and only getting busier jim. My goodness. All right. Well, were going to have to keep our eyes on that storm. That that is a very scary forecast there for the Florida Coast. Elisa. Thank you so much in the short term Elies Damage has been devastating, but in the longterm, it could be catastrophic. Moodys analytics has put the projected Price Tag of helenes Iq Impact at up to 34 Billion of Property Damage is estimated to cost somewhere between 15 and billion joining us now is pier to boss he has a real Estate Attorney and managing partner for romer devos. Appear. Welcome. This is, this is scary stuff. Just how much this could really cost the country. And it just tells you how the damage is going to be around for a long time and its going to take a lot of resources to clean it all up. Yeah, jim, you dont the last five years weve seen unfortunately, a tremendous uptick in Natural Disasters. When you look at hawaii, california, now whats going on in the sunbelt . Theres no perfect answer to this problem is, youve also had in that time period, had housing values almost doubled since inception, pandemic. So right now you have nothing short of an Affordability Crisis in america for housing. Now when you attack on insurance, which is going up at significant rates on an annual basis you know, the compounding the affordability problem. It is inevitable and feed, we can hope fema is funded by billions of dollars more to assist all these homeowners. But at The End of the day how do you hedge for the Replacement Cost of all these homes that have been completely demolished. You look at Insurance Policies, Majority Insurance policies in america dont cover for Replacement Cost or in shoguns floods are tornadoes or hurricanes yeah. And what does this mean for the Insurance System . Because i mean, thats already been a big question down in florida and now in the carolinas, i mean, a lot of folks moved up into western North Carolina because they were they were under the feeling that they were safe from these kinds of powerful hurricanes. I mean, its just going to make an even bigger mess out of our Insurance System. That seems absolutely. I mean, Insurance Companies right now are looking for any reason not to ensure an area that could be deemed to be a flood hazard area. If you remotely close to any body of water, the Insurance Companies are running, wave. So its definitely a problem because were really going to need the regulators to make sure that the insurance premiums are increasing at a reasonable pace. Commensurate with the risks theyre assuming that Insurance Companies keep continuing to ensure in these areas are also what happens if you deem these areas to be entirely uninsurable, youre going to make homeownership virtually impossible. Youre going to have a massive attraction in Investment Desire in these areas. These economics of it will never work out and the risk will never always be hi right . Or youre going to have to come up with some other way to ensure peoples properties which i mean, what does that, what does that entail i mean, what what do you make of the way the numbers are coming in on Helenes Destruction and i mean, were already seeing another storm of building in the Gulf Coast i mean, this this this could end up being an extremely costly our Hurricane Season the Hurricane Season and i think we have to get ahead of this issue in that, how are we going to protect the consumer . And youre average american homeowner in these neighborhoods and you know, obviously funding fema is the first, the first possible solution, but its probably not going to be enough. I think we have to start also educating consumers in terms of what Insurance Policies they need to be aware of. Didnt consumer is a novice when it comes to insurance, especially homeowners insurance, majority of them Go Online and they get the cheapest policy possible that will satisfy their lender we need to really sorry, educated consumer in terms of what the risk is and what their actual coverages and it makes sure that the Coverage And Insurance is being given to the consumer at reasonable rates and, theres also the subject of Climate Change in the way that is super charging these storms. I mean, thats, thats a factor heading into the future. I mean, how does how does the Insurance System how does the real Estate System Deal with that if things are just going to continue to get on this trajectory of more and more powerful storms i mean, jim, youre highlighting exactly what the nightmare is. Theres no theres no perfect solution for this. And this is a huge problem. Again, were ready in a big problem in the country when it comes to Housing And Affordability in these areas which are unfortunately been subject to these Natural Disasters. This is going to be a problem thats going to last for the next several years until we figured, until we figure it out and i dont i dont really have a perfect solution for you, except that we have to make sure that proper insurance is available to consumer and that fema is ready to help provide Disaster Assistance Relief all right period of us will have to ponder some of those ideas and hopefully come up with some solutions, especially for these folks in these hardhit areas, its just its been its been rough week. Appear. Thanks for your time. We appreciate it. Thank you all right. Coming up the latest job report, it really blew past expectations unemployment, a sparked a stock market rally.

This source with Kaitlan Collins Weeknights at nine live pictures right now, Vice President Kamala Harris on the tarmac in charlotte, meeting with the governor of North Carolina, Roy Cooper the administrator of fema, deanne criswell. Shes going to be getting a briefing here in the coming minutes, hour or so about helenes Aftermath And Relief efforts. And then shes going to be doing some more Background Briefings with the local officials on the ground there about Recovery Efforts after that devastating storm swept through the southeast. Were going to keep an eye on all of this. Well see if she talks to the cameras, if she does, will bring that to you in just a few moments. So stay with us for more on that. In the meantime, what was looking like tough economic shocks to comment . The Harris Campaign is quickly turning into a win for the Vice President. First, there is the unexpectedly strong Labor Market showing 254,000 new jobs were added last Month And Unemployment dropping to 4. 1 also, thousands of Port Workers settling a massive strike just days after walking off the job averting a deal deep economic impact. Lets get some more analysis now with catherine rampell. Shes a cnn economics and political Commentator And Washington Post Opinion Columnist catherine good to see you as always i mean, what we were hearing towards The End of this past week, people were starting to panic, buy Toilet Paper and they were worried about this Port Workers strike i mean, that was sort of ridiculous that people were doing that, but people were doing that so that didnt look good from economic or political standpoint for the Vice President. And then these Jobs Numbers came in. What did you make of all that . Its been great news, great news for the economy. Certainly. Not only because we will not potentially have the kinds of Supply Chain disruptions that people were fearing. And that we so far, you know, Knock On Wood seem to be headed toward a soft landing for the u. S. Economy, meaning that we are in the process of Beating Back Inflation without having a dreaded recession so far all great news for the economy, all greatness for the american people. But as you point out, also, quite welcome news for the democratic president ial candidate, Kamala Harris who has and sort of playing this, you know, doing this dance where she have owned whats going on with the Economy And Half wants to avoid it because people are still pretty bummed about how the economy is doing, even as we get these relatively good numbers yeah, i mean, i remember when i covered the Romney Obama raised in 2012 and we are still coming out of the great recession and as the Unemployment Rate was ticking down, you sort of felt like barak Obamas Reelection prospects were going up. And but it seems this time around folks maybe arent as focused on what the Unemployment Rate it is their they tell us this anecdotally that there are just much more concerned about inflation even though the numbers showed that coming down whats your sense of all of that in terms of maybe thats muting what might be more of a win for Kamala Harris . I actually think the 2012 race is very useful metaphor. The one that you just brought up because at the time, as you may recall, about a year out of the election, barack obama, who is running for reelection, had these really poor Job Approval ratings, right . It looks like he potentially he had an Uphill Battle to go in his in his race against Mitt Romney and the conventional wisdom at the time was that poor views of the economy were really weighing on his Job Approval. But not only did the economy recover, but eventually Consumer Sentiment kind of caught up to it, were not quite there yet, but it does look like in the past few months, Consumer Sentiment, views of the economy have been gradually improving. There still relatively dour, at least in connection with what the hard data look like. Again, those relatively, not relatively good, great jobs, numbers, cooling inflation, strong Gdp Growth Et cetera. But it does seem like consumers are at least a little bit less grouchy about the economy than they once were. I dont think the economy is ever going to be a winning issue per say, for kamalaharris because she does represent the incumbent party but i think it may be less of an albatross around her neck going forward . Yeah. Typically, a 4. 1 Unemployment Rate is really good news for slowly its fantastic yeah, well see how it all breaks down and maybe the Interest Rate News might also have some effect on all of this as we get close to Election Day, i, catherine rampell, great to see you thanks so much.

And its seven on cnn notorious murders in american history. Now, new evidence is being examined in the case of Erik And Lyle menendez, the brothers convicted of shooting and killing their parents in their beverly Hills Mansion in beverly Hills Mansion in 1989, cnns Camila Bernal is in Los Angeles for us kamala, what are we learning so jim, the attorney representing the brothers, now says that hes very optimistic that the District Attorney is going to look and review the evidence in this case. Look the question here is not whether or not these two brothers killed their parents. They admitted to doing this and doing it in their Beverly Hills home in 19 in 89. But the question is, now, should they be serving that Life Sentence . Their attorney certainly does not think so, and its why hes been pushing for their conviction to be vacated and why hes been pushing for a review of this evidence. Jim use spoke to the District Attorney earlier on the program and he admitted that, yes. Part the reason why hes looking at all of this is because of the attention that a lot of these documentaries and shows the new one on netflix Social Media because of all this attention, he has been looking at this case and its why he made this announcement. I want you to listen to part of that conversation with George Gascon more public is because after the documentary, we began to get many, many requests from media and others about where was the case . The case is actually schedule were hearing on november 29. And but for the documentary, quite frankly, we probably would not be talking at this point we may be talking later, but thats certainly has increased the a patient by the public and thats what were being pollak about, where we are now, theres also huge attention on the sexual Abuse Part of it, and the boys saying that that is the reason why they killed their parents in 89. And so the evidence that they want to be reviewed includes just evidenced that proves that maybe they were sexually abused before this killing again, the District Attorney has not made a decision but says hes reviewing all of this. And the next hearing for this case is november 29, jim . Yes. Some fascinating comments from the da, maybe this Netflix Documentary and the other documentaries will have an impact on all of this.

Instead thats a very expensive product to give away endlessly when you havent less shrimpton, people are coming in and sitting down the table and eating for hours ours is much as they possibly can.
