Reporter congressman Elijah Cummings is a baltimore native who chairs the House Oversight committee which is investigating the president and his administration.

At odds with themselves to reach with moderate to severe Crohns Disease, a consistency but yet still struggling. As we saw with his feud with i was there, just not always where i needed to be. Science in the last week or so, the president is not typically is she alright . Good at letting things go. I hope so. So i talked to my doctor about humira. I think hes definitely going i learned humira is for people who still have symptoms to mention it because i think he of Crohns Disease after trying other medications. Considers that feud a hit of and the majority of people on humira his.

In the white house wringing their hands how come their message isnt getting out on the heroic work, its because the messenger keeps saying really racist things. Yeah, no kidding. And the part that they need to think about if hes in that room and plays that hit, or if they continue with what happens in a Republican Party or a conference of republican elected laugh at the president continuing to play that terrible hit. Yep. And that does further damage to all of them in their seats. And to the sustainability of this project. It was the Republican Party the world lead now, that, by the way, was the progressive party. President trump announcing a twoweek delay on new tariffs im not writing that on oped scheduled to take place on october 1st. Is some of the tensions in the today. That is spinning. The showdown between u. S. And china is due to china increasing lets turn to the pompeo its influence in new parts of europe at the expense of the story. A recent oped calls pompeo the u. S. As cnns Oren Liebermann now secretary of trump. Explains. Reporter follow the tracks a senior official saying that on the outskirts of belgrade, pompeo is among the most esearod you get to central europe. Follow the money, you end up somewhere very different. The new tracks bear the markings of china railways, one of the Major Chinese projects in seiche trump. And really this speculation is exactly the thing that will undermine pompeo in the presence of the president. Szczererbi because the president makes the serbia. This steel meal is once owned by decision. He doesnt want anybody bigger u. S. Steel. Than him. When it couldnt make money, the and so, while all of that americans sold it to the serbian probably hurts pompeo, i think government for one dollar until its an accurate the chinese instructed in. Characterization. This retired construction worker said the move saved his look, hes laughilacking in two hometown. Translator people do see the chinese here as rescuers. We would like them to stay here. Positions. He will get fired not promoted by President Trump. If 93 leavthey leave, this woul hes really good at managing. Whatever you think of mike disaster for everyone. Pompeo, hes good at managing reporter china bought the up. Plant for a premium, 51 million the truth is ideologically, then poured more money into it. In villages here that rely on trump, pompeo and bolton back to 2016, really not that different. The steel mill, it is china the one is a deeply ideological person and another is an savior. And it grows serbias reliance operator who is managing on a different superpower.

Even though its untenable for reporter kyle scott is a u. S. Ambassador to serbia. Last month, the white house someone as Henry Kissinger, mike hosted the serbia foreign minister in washington who urged pompeo isnt. I think trump thinks the two serbs in america to post president donald trump. Positions are smushable. The door of friendship is open, theyre somewhat relatable. But china is coming in bringing you can smush them together. You know, im a small government money and loans. For serbia which didnt comment concertive, i like consolidating to our request for comment, government. These are two very important, by means money and a powerful the way, discrete positions. Sometimes, in conflict with one friend coming into the region. Another. Serbia right now is the you like to have the checks and balances. Anchor for the chinese effort. To have it be the same person could actually be somewhat but the chains for that anchor also go into other countries. Dangerous. You know in a white house, reporter theres a shared the process is so important. And you do want those functions feeling of victimization here. Separate. And you want to be able the serbians have never forgiven the thing is, every white house has u. S. Or europe for the kosovo faction to faction fights. Theyre usually well managed by a strong chief of staff and bombing to halt cleansing. One of the targets was the everybody doing their actual job. I will say this, though, im chinese embassy. The u. S. Claimed it was a glad bolton is leaving, he was mistake. An explanation neither serbia or china guide believed. Hallelujah, im glad hes gone. If i were to go on the streets i think thought he was a dangerous andnce to american life. Stick around, we got one and ask who is a better friend republican saying that democrats to serbia, china or the usa absolutely china. Are just talking about impeachment for the grant.

Our politics now leave a big moment today for the 135 House Democrats who want impeachment proceedings against President Trump to begin. In a Party Line Vote today, the House Judiciary Committee adopted the rules for their investigation. But as one republican noted democrats cant agree on whats next. Or even what to call this. Do you want to give the illusion of impeachment without the reality of it . Some democrats can tell their constituencies theyre conducting an impeachment inquiry. While others can tell their constituencies that they arent. You can have your impeachment and deny it, too. Lets go to cnns manu raju on capitol hill. M manu, democrats want this but they dont want the full caucus . Thats right. Sizable number in the full Democratic Caucus still not there yesterday as far as getting behind formal impeachment proceedings, even though theres a number in the house who do want to move forward. There are some in districts at risk of flipping in 2020. Pushing back telling me now is not time to move forward. I think the American People arent there on the issue of impeachment. I dont think weve made the case to the American People that we need to, yet. Move on the House Judiciary Committee, essentially what will theyre doing is the same as inquiry means that the full house will not have to vote to formally open this investigation. That will spare them from a vote. But, jake, if the committee does make a decision to actually recommend articles of impeachment, which jerry nadler wants to do before the end of the year, those members will have to cast a vote by then, jake. Manu, az a theres a debate equal it inquiry or investigation. Even Speaker Pelosi wont say . Yeah, ive tried multiple times this week to say whether or not she supports impeachment. Simply saying the existence of an investigation. Today in a conference she was asked directly about this issue and she pushed back. Are you uncomfortable with the term impeachment inquiry . Is there another term we should use . Im not why dont we spend some time going over to see Mitch Mcconnell and asking him why he doesnt want to save lives . Why is it that youre hung up on a word over here when lives are at stake over there . Shes referring to, of course, Mitch Mcconnell not moving forward on the universal background checks and referring to gun sales. Nonetheless, her tone about impeachment much different than what the house judiciary chairman jerry nadler said after the vote. Saying were going to move forward with an aggressive set of hearings this fall. And calling one impeachment hearing next week with this former Campaign Manager corey lewandowski, set to testify about the allegations in the mueller report. Jake. Thanks so much. Huge milestone for the Trump Administration that he may not want to tweet. Today, the Treasury Department announced that the u. S. Budget deficit topped 1 trillion. Its the first time in seven years.

In our 2020 lead today for the very first time time, former Vice President joe biden senator Elizabeth Warren and senator Bernie Sanders will all stand on the same debate stage in houston in the third democratic debate this evening. The expectation is that both progressive fire brands warren and sanders will take it to the more moderate frontrunner in the former vp. As cnns jeff zeleny reports from houston. Reporter a texas showdown between the top three democratic president ial candidates, the first in the 2020 campaign as they stand side by side sharing a debate stage in houston. While joe biden and Bernie Sanders have faced up, all eyes are on Elizabeth Warren. Bidens advisers says the former Vice President questions whether warren will be able to deliver on her plans. Plans are great, but executing on those plans is say very different thing. Reporter but warren is imploring democrats to dream big, arguing now is not the time to play it safe. We cant choose a candidate we dont believe in because were scared. We dont believe in. Reporter the massachusetts senator releasing another new plan today, calling for a major expansion of southeastern security, to immediately increase benefits by 200 a month per person. And expand benefits for the poor. To pay for it she would require the wealthiest americans to contribute more to the program. Warren along with Bernie Sanders is calling for sweeping changes to health care and other government programs. Its a revolution that biden and several other rivals fear is pushing the party too far to the left. Only ten candidates out of the crowded dem qualified for the debate to be head on the campus of Texas SouthernUniversity One of the nations historically black colleges and universities. Biden announcing the endorsement of 59 black legislators, solidifying his lead. The new poll shows the former Vice President holds an overwhelming support by black voters, 42 supporting him. Five times as much as warren and Kamala Harris. Hours before the debate, biden remaining voters of his loyalty in the white house. Former president barack obama. Barack obama is an extraordinary man. Reporter now, its know surprise that biden is still clinging tight to president obama. Of course, hes the most popular democrat in the party, jake, youll remember at the last debate in detroit it was the obama legacy that in fact was being debated. Advisers to all of the campaigns are telling us they do not expect that to be quite as sharp. There was a lot of backlash on the debates of the obama legacy. Jake, one thing thats clear, joe biden is bringing in his argument for strong electability. Elizabeth warren is bringing her plans in. Both of those are likely to get picked apart. Lets talk about this, s. E. , tell me what you think Vice President joe biden should do tonight . Well, i hate to say this, im not picking on him, it seems like joe bidens performance is his worst of this campaign season. He hasnt found a way to redeem from the last one before he goes on to the next. So, i hope he just has a clean, sharp performance. I think he should do is drag outside that recent pew poll that found democrats have lost that advantage they have on voters over republican. Its vanished. I think he should raise that as a reason for his electability. As a reason for why some of these pie in the sky policy ideas are maybe well intentioned but unrealistic. Hes the pragmatist. He can get stuff done. Then if youred avising sanders or warren, what would you tell them . Look, we often overlook sanders strength. We look at the comeback of Elizabeth Warren. But sanders is very, very strong. Ry stable. I think he can humanize himself before. Weve heard all of that stuff before. Hes got to prove himself on the plan tonight. Elizabeth warren, look, shes the best athlete on the field. I think she needs to resist the temptation to go after biden. I think biden has a lot of love in this party. I think people feel hes a little unsteady on his feet. She can take him out at any point. I dont think she has to do it tonight. What do you think, margaret, what would you say . Biden not only has to avoid a gaffe, he has to defend the legacy that hes associated with in a way that gives mainstream democrats something to hang their hat on. Theyre coming up with excuses, the senile guy is better than the crazy guy. And thats just not enough, right . No. By the way, its going to be one of these top three candidates, warren, sanders and biden, youve got twothirds of the democratic preference locked up. And all of the other 17 candidates are fighting over that onethird. The likelihood that one of the other candidates is going to emerge is unlikely. Dont you think instead of Elizabeth Warren focusing on biden, shes got to focus on sanders. Theyre too alike to too many voters. Eventually, shes going to make the case shes more electable than Bernie Sanders. I think whats troubling for the democratic field, its not a strong field. Not only are they accept janarions, but also, biden represents Something Like the center but historically hes been a liberal mainstream senator. Warren and sanders are in their own zip code when it comes to the party, let alone the electricet. Theres still someone who has an opportunity like Kamala Harris but then got hit by the biden boomerang. That attack boomeranged back to her. This debate matters the most for her. What did you make, van, of this video that biden put out, this homage to barack obama, reminding people that he was the Vice President , that he was there . Look, as much as people might roll their eyes and stuff like that, that brings tears to the eyes to a lot of people. I think its hard for people you cannot underestimate how much barack obama means to a big part of this party. The africanamerican voters who are the most reliable loved barack obama, love michelle obama. Loved the dog, loved the girls, the whole deal. There were two dogs, by the way. Two dogs. Oh, he knows everything thank goodness. But, yeah, youve got to hold on to that base. You mentioned Kamala Harris, you know, she hurt herself in that second debate. That first debate she was strong, but there was a warmth there. That little girl was me. It was a little tough. Strong and warm tends to work. The second debate she was a little weaker when she tried to punch biden. Biden punched her back and beat her up. Then theres no human moment. She goes strong and warm to a little weak and cold. That doesnt work. Shes got to come back somehow, avoid that boomerang but show that strength and warmth. You talk about pie in the sky proposals, your characterizations, not mine. Yep. Warren unveiled a proposal to overhaul Social Security giving recipients an extra 200 a month to raise taxes on the wealthy. That would bode well for many most of which wont be hit by the tax increases but also used against her . Yeah, i think ininstrumentalism is a place to be. When we talk about abolishing private health insurance, those are the things that make people are you living on . A, those are created ideases, im not in favor of them, b, they cant get done, you still have to work with a divided government. I think youre exactly right. The question is when will warren have to make something veempling an electability case. Its not enough to say, look, ive got all of these play to the base proposals but theyre never going to happen because theyll never get through the senate. If youre talking about abolishing private insurance, never building another nuclear plant. 15 payroll tax hike, albeit on the wealthiest americans. At what point is she going to make the case she actually win an election . Yeah. Everyone, stick around. Spy games in the nations capital.

Ally who President Trump publicly praises quite often is now accused of spying on him. Politico reports that Israeli Intelligence agencies are suspected by u. S. Intelligence of having planted cell phone surveillance devices in and around the washington, d. C. Area to gather information on the white house. As cnns Alex Marquardt reports the Israeli Government is denying the story in the strongest possible way. Reporter an adamant denial today from israel, following a report that its Intelligence Services planted cell phone surveillance devices near the white house and other sensitive locations in washington, d. C. Prime minister benjamin netanyahu, in russia today, meeting with vladimir putin, claiming israel doesnt spy on the united states. Absolutely not. We have a directive i have a directive, no intelligence collection in the united states. No spying. And its rigorously enforced without any speculation. There are politico reports according to senior u. S. Officials israel was most likely behind a series of electronic spying devices known as stingrays. The goal tells politico was to spy on the president s house of staff and reportedly known to use a cell phone. If i were a foreign Intelligence Officer in washington i would want to listen into his calls and closest aides. Reporter in 2018, it was confirmed to senator joau ron w that they found stingray activity but did not say who was behind it. That can really be an entry point, a glide path for people who represent an extraordinary danger to our country. Reporter the stingray is technically known as an ims catcher, is signals cell phones to connecting to them. The stingray can capture location, calls, text and other data streams. Extremely valuable information on potentially very serious subjects. U. S. Security Officials Say its possible that israel could buy these devices anonymously and use them as part of our u. S. Intelligence gathering. Israelis have never stopped spying on us one way or another. You know, when they get caught, theres a slap on the wrist. If there has been a slap on the wrist for israel, we havent seen it yet. The Trump Administration, of course, is extremely close to the government of benjamin netanyahu. And, jake, its important to note the u. S. Gathers intelligence on them, too. We asked the fbi, cia, nfc, all for comment, but they all declined. As putin met with netanyahu today, Russian Security was rounding up activists in more than 40 cities across that country, yet another example of what Amnesty International has called a fuelscale crackdown on putins components. What do you think was the stayed reason for the raid and the actual reason . Hey, jake, a massive crackdown across the country. 200 arrests, they broke up offices, they seized computers. Offices of apartments of associates of one of the main opposition leaders in this country. Hes a prominent anticorruption campaigner. Now what the Authorities Say is that they are investigating widespread corruption in his organization. Theyre accusing him of money laundering, passing off millionses of dollars worth of donations or criminal monies as donations from the public. He, of course, categorically denies that. Says thats not nonsense. This is all about revenge. Because he staged such an Effective Campaign in the recent local elections, a tactical Voting Campaign to encourage people not to vote for the ruling parties. And that was a severe denting of the ruling parties in the russian capital, that putin, he says, is absolutely furious. And is stamping his feet. Those are his words, at the kremlin. Because his ruling party lost with you know, had such a massive dent in it. And its only vladimir putin, he said who could have organized and ordered such a massive, widespread crackdown. Thanks so much. Appreciate it. President trump soon expected to make a decision on new Gun Legislation that he would be willing to sign into law, but can Congress Take him at his word . Hi.

The key ally of President Trump says hes opening to strengthening background checks before gun purchases. This is exhibit a of whats wrong with the gun system. A background check when you go to a licensed gun dealer. You buy on the streets someone selling guns, you know, not as a family or friend, just making money off of selling guns, you can capture that. The signal from the president s ally, senator Lindsey Graham, a conservative from gun country, leading to speculation what President Trump will ultimately say on the record on the report to curb the Mass Shootings and gun violence. After the parkland shooting in 2018, President Trump said he was open to a long list of gun control measures only to back off within a day after meeting with the nra. Senate majority leader Mitch Mcconnell has said he will not bring anything up for a vote in the Senate Unless the president has said out loud in public that he will sign it. Lets chew over this. What do you think Lindsey Graham is trying to do here . Were speculating, but is he trying to send a message for him or is he trying to provide kug for him . I think more coverage than a message. There say group inside the Trump White House interested in coming up with something. Its moderately modest in terms what theyre open to, red flag background checks. And video games, they want to broaden out mental health. But theres four corners of a deal in attempt to have public support for that. One of the issues here, you heard Lindsey Graham talking about it, the idea that private sales you do not have to have a background check. And maybe a background check can be extended to all sales.

He could lead on it. And it would help him with suburban moms, right . And it would but whats worse, he prides himself on being a tough guy following his own impulses. And his impulse is to clearly support background checks. Every time hes instinctively going on it he backs off when he gets the call from the nra. This is a 90 issue. I know s. E. Sees it differently. Trump really its real Political Capital to get the first cast. He was willing to publicly challenge Mitch Mcconnell. And look what happened. He got what he wanted. He got what he wanted. Yes, there is a pathway here. If he does do this, it may make s. E. Cupp i dont know red flags. You have an issue with red flags. I do. Lets talk about red flag laws for a second. The president could push for that. This would help states expand their laws so that a parent or a judge could take away somebodys guns if adadjudicated. In an oped, quote, red flag laws empower Law Enforcement or family members to use the judicial system to keep guns out of hands of individuals. But there are othersurts. Take a listen. Let me make a prediction, if we pass a red flag law, everymb First Six Months is going to have a number of people go file a claim and say, this person
