Travelers, but look now good morning youre live in the Cnn Newsroom. Im Jim Acosta in washington tonight, perhaps the most important 90 minutes of this year as a polarized nation comes together for the only scheduled debate in this bitter race for the White House. This is the stage where Vice President Kamala Harris and Donald Trump will meet facetoface for the first time. With less than two months until election day. Both candidates are determined to find an edge heres why this New York Times Sienna College Poll i like some of the other polls out there showing no clear leader with both Harris And Trump locked in a statistical deadheat tonight. A chance to pull away he played with this really old and tired playbook, right . Where he, theres no floor for him in terms of how low he will go and we should be prepared for that. We should be prepared for the fact that he is not burdened by telling the truth and trumps Team Planning to treat Kamala Harris as the incumbent, tying her to the pr
This hour up on Capitol Hill, we should note a Gold Medal Ceremony for the eu 13 u. S Service Members killed and the botched withdrawal from afghanistan, they will be honored of members of both parties are honoring fallen. Well dip into that live in just a few moments from now. So stay with us for that. But in the meantime, joining me now to talk about the debate is former deputy Communications Director for Vice President Kamala Harris, rachel palermo, and former were Trump Administration official matt mowers rachel, let me start with you first. What do you want to hear from Vice President Harris Tonight . I mean, does she have to look at tonight .

Theres going to be millions of eyes on her tonight and people are seeing that the more that people do get
Hi, everyone. Dont you love that music. It is 4 00 in New York. The prosecutor versus the felon, the want to be autocrat versus the democrat. A candidate weighed down by incumbency in the eyes of the voters, a candidate who will be the oldest president in our history should he prevail. Versus the candidate of change from a much younger generation. Every contrast that defined the 2024 president ial election could very well be distilled in to 90 minutes on one of the biggest stages of this Campaign Season so far. With the mics muted and no audience with only the moderator as loued to ask the questions and two minutes to answer and two minutes for rebuttal, Vice President Kamala Harris will be up against a candidate who at this point is defined by his lies. As we reported before, he told more than 30,000 lies over the course of his presidency. Countless more since then. A candidate who has no problem spewing disinformation no matter the consequences, as long as it serves had im. Here is h

It always comes down to a few thousand people in three states who cant make up their mind between two items on the menu You Know the best thing, the best thing about living in california is that were not a swing state. So they leave us alone really . I mean all year in l. A. , i think ive seen one Trump Sign and Scott Baio was sleeping under it just a joke. We can all in good fun. No, we have we have much bigger problems out here. It was 104 today. Here it was 118 in the valley. Oh, i was sweating like j. D. Vance in a donut shop.
Sir Keir Starmer has become the first british Prime Minister to visit the Republic Of Ireland in five years. Downing street says saturdays visit marks a new era of Cooperation And Friendship between the united kingdom and ireland, with the two nations looking for a reset after brexit. Sir Keir Starmer met simon harris, the relatively new taoiseach. Ahead of their talks, they swapped Football Shirts and they will be attending a match in a pew i was time at the Aviva Stadium In Dublin and the two are holding their face to Face Talk and they did speak to the media before they moved on. Today we are here In Dublin to probably try to flesh out what a reset actually looks like, and what it looks like in a practical sense for our citizens on both islands, and i certainly know that it has to be embedded in things like peace, prosperity, mutual respect and friendship, and i am really looking forward to having an opportunity to discuss that with you today.
