Today for to 79 at cardiac. Com or amazon. This is cnn the Worlds News Network thank you so much for joining me this saturday. Im fredricka whitfield, and we begin this hour with our breaking news. Vice president then Kamala Harris has accepted an invitation from cnn to debate former President Trump on October 23. This would be their second meeting on a public like Debate Stage and would take place in the final few weeks of the campaign. After initially rejecting a second debate with harris following his September 10 showdown with her in philadelphia, less quick, trumps suggesting he might be open to another debate saying im quoting him. Maybe if i got in the Right mood and quote the Cnn Debate would mirror the June Debate between Biden And Trump with a similar format in which trump and this time harris would field moderators questions for 90 minutes without a live studio audience. And it would take place at the networks studios in atlanta. Weve got a team of correspondents and analyst
