win, you will be their next target. that s why israel s victory will be your victory. but make no mistake, regardless of who stands with israel, israel will fight until this battle is won. israel will prevail. just part of a defiant speech yesterday from israeli prime minister benjamin netanyahu, where he rejected calls for a cease-fire and his resignation. we ll have more of his comments and get a live report from the israel-gaza border straight ahead. meanwhile, aid for israel is a top priority on capitol hill, but the two chambers have very different plans for delivering it. we ll go through that potential funding fight. also ahead, an update on the expected testimony from donald trump and his three oldest children in his civil fraud trial. plus, why a tentative new deal for auto workers is a win for the union and president bide biden. and the continued support for actor matthew perry, with his friends, co-stars, releasing a statement following his passing. we ll r
night? next four years behind closed doors, president biden is huddling with advisers at camp trump were that s according to some of the sources we re talking to for his part, trump s debate prep appears to include posting on his truth, social official account. consider this rant that says, quote, drug test for crooked joe biden. i would also immediately agreed one that s from the former president and club. it s the latest bizarre and baseless suggestion for trump and his allies that biden will need some sort of performance enhancing drugs for the cnn showdown, recovering both campaigns this morning with cnn s kristen holmes and kevin lip tack. kevin, let s begin with you. there s a new ad from the biden campaign. what s it say? yeah, i think it does give you a preview of the economic message that they re going to focus on the debate because as you mentioned and as is typical, the president and his team are getting a lot of incoming from democrats. they re concerned about t

is it three? no. three. because i got one granddaughter who is i don t know. the last country i traveled i m thinking the last one i was in. yeah, you re right, ireland. that s where i was. oh, and while joe runs from cover from the friendly media, his challengers are lining up. check out this new fox news poll. rfk jr. and mary ann williamson combined to have nearly 30% of democratic primary voters, but democrats need to get behind biden because, quote, we re trying to save democracy. the person to do the job is doing the job. you get behind him, and we won t have a problem. the minute you start making inroads, maybe this person, maybe this person, we re done for. so make a decision. make a decision. he s done a lot for the country.
