take us inside and give us a flavor of what was going on. >> really this was extraordinary. i have never experienced this sort of engagement by a public official with people who are directly affected. and it was an open ballroom tables groupings and after making introductory remarks about his own personal experience with death and grief, which were very, very moving, he moved on to speak individually, table by table until everyone had had a chance and was satisfied that they had truly connected with the president and the first lady. >> so, in other words, he and the first lady actually spoke with every family member who was there who was gathered. they could say a few words about their moms or their dads, their sons or daughters. >> he immediately asked. he wanted to understand his circumstances. he shared his own stories of how he had coped with loss and grief. i found it very comforting, and i know they did as well. >> and you had never experienced obviously anything like this before. >> no, sir. >> president coming to miami-dade and all of a sudden you have to deal with a

elizabeth cohen kicks us off. eager parents of kids 12 and under want to know when are the shots ready. >> yes. it hasn't been approved for them yet. so the pharmaceutical companies are doing clinical trials with children for various doses to make sure that it is safe and effective for them. let's take a look at what we're hearing from pfizer. they seem to be first out of the gate in this area. pfizer is telling us that for children ages 5 to 11, that pfizer might be asking the fda for emergency use authorization for children in this group in september. usually just based on history. it then takes several weeks for the fda to process the application. i can't imagine even if they apply september 1st, i can't imagine it would happen in october or november. as for younger children, pfizer says they could have data later in the fall, maybe as late as november for the little ones. it will be a while. it will not be for the start of school. but there's good reason for that. children are not just small adults. you have t

>> they doved us healthcare heros. it gave the public this really wrong impression that we were sacrificial lams and willing to die for them. we want to help people. i want to save lives. i want people to get better, but not at the expense of my family's lives either. then you have the public going, well, you signed up for this. no, i didn't. when i was 17 i enlisted in t army and knew i might die for my country and 22 and went to nursing school that wasn't on the agenda. i didn't volunteer to die for everybody. even with the vaccine now, it's still highly politicized thing for no good reason. >> reporter: last year, sunny started venting on tiktok. >> you're just trying to spread fear. if that's what it takes to get you to listen to me, sure. >> i had avoided posting about covid for a long time because of the negative reactions i got. it hurt my feeling. couple weeks ago i had people threatening to kill me, calling me a murderer, saying i helped kill those people. is my thing to respond to hate comments for just $10 i

thank you for joining us. >> thank you. >> i started with the pompeo book. from a 30,000 foot view, i think this is the thrust of what your book gets into, which is that so many people inside the white house and in trump world felt that the president was dangerous. >> yeah. >> felt that he was dangerous, yet didn't take it public. >> that's right. i think we are all pretty familiar with the story of the chaos of trump's four years, whether it's the administration or the president himself. what this book lays out pretty me tho methodically and for the first time how dangerous people cl closeest to trump thought he was dangerous for the country. you bring up a good one. secretary mike pompeo becomes concerned about the national security of the country, the domestic unrest and what that could mean internationally. privately he sets of a call, daily call with the chief of staff, and mark milley, the nation's top general in order to try to keep temperatures down. publicly what does he say? he says that there is goi

carol is with us now. he's wrong about the history of thomas jefferson, but we won't go back to the election of 1800. i'm just fascinated. we'll get to some of the details of the book which are riveting. you're sitting across from donald trump and you see the anger, the frustration, still, this is four months after january 6th, when you sit down with him at mike pence. what is that like? >> you know, donald trump is an amazing personality because when we were sitting with him, his whole body is so physically committed to this alternative reality. you know as a journalist and i know you can kind of detentct wn someone is giving you a bunch of bs. but donald trump believes it. in pence, super disappointed in mike pence, over and over again, telling us why pence was weak, pence was a statue, pence let him down, pence, according to donald trump, didn't protect the constitution because he failed to reject those votes. >> which is actually the opposite of what happened. he did protect the constitution and did hi

i'm worried for us, for all of us, because if you don't get it you're going to make others sick. my kid is not going to be back in school in the fall and i'm worried, man. my kids did not do well not being in school. they're not that type of kid. you know? i have one of the only 15-year-old boys in this country who wants to redo a year of school. think about that. not because he is a hockey player or something and looking for another year of eligibility. this is bad. people in my family have been sick. i was sick. i can't believe we're going to willingly go this way again when we have something that can keep us from it. i just can't believe it. it is not about shaming you. i don't want you to feel forced. and yet there is shame in this. there are people basically forcing you to think foregoing the vaccine is you being free. that is a false choice. people like crenshaw, paul, cruz, ron johnson, they're punking you. this is a question of freedom. don't let the government tell you what to do. so getting it or not getting it are equal propositions to them. let's test that. how many o

but the white house has always resisted using the word mandate. they do not believe it's good politically or good policy. they don't believe it would convince the hesitant to get vaccines. now they are taking a dramatic step further even from where they were several days ago byishing the requirement. i'm told the speech this afternoon, the president will be having sharp words for the unvaccinated as well as the vaccinated, trying to urge others in the country to get the shot. >> jeff zeleny live for us. a big day at the white house. let's walk through the numbers behind the shift right now. number one, look at the map. look at the map and look at all the red. look at the deeper gold. that's high and substantial coronavirus community spread right now. only 1 % of americans. think about that. only 1% of americans live now in areas where low community transmission. if you're in high or substantial transmission, the cdc says even if you're vaccinated, you should put on a msk when you go inside the delta variant is spreading. look at the red in the mid

john allen is joining us now. what more are you learning about the pope's surgery and how it all went? >> reporter: well, rosemary, we have not had updates this morning. we are expecting a brief medical bulletin at roughly noon rome time. this is a situation where no news is good news. the surgery has gone well and the pope responded well and was recovering normally. and the fact that there has been no addition to that and that we are getting a bulletin in a preprogrammed hour, would suggest that everything is proceeding as it should. >> so, talk to us about the day before, and leading up to this. nobody had any idea, but this was scheduled surgery. which of course makes everyone relax, he knew about it. it's a kwiquiet time for the po. talk to us about the lead-up to this. >> well, you are right, i mean, this was planned in advance. and it's a plan pope francis elected to not really share with anyone. i can confirm that from my personal experience, rosemary. we hosted a july 4th pa party here in town. about 20 or

it tells us what? >> t -- well, it tells us they felt the need given of all the weeks of the back to back news cycles around vice president harris, that they felt the need to clamp down on this. to say this isn't what's happening and they wanted to defend her. you saw this rallying around her today in axios, the rebuke of the politico reporting that we had saying there is turmoil in that office. this also carries over from the campaign. she had similar issues during her campaign with staff. and so now you also saw the president today bring her up to the podium to show look, we are one united front, and that he supports her. >> you mentioned a history. let's show the recent headlines. politico not a healthy environment. fingers point at harris. new york post, she's number two. report claims the kamala harris feels. let's go back in time. you're right. this is november 2019. no discipline, no plan no strategy. kamala harris campaign is in meltdown. again, some of this is overblown in washington. some of

us in texas. you there. everywhere we face this issue with an attack on our democracy. >> do you think republicans actually -- do you think they heard or listened to the president's speech, and if they did, did they do it with open ears? he denounced republican efforts to restrict voting rights, asked, have you no shame? similar question to before, but we know what the answer to that is -- how do you shame the shameless? >> you can't shame them. do i think the sound waves went into their ears? yeah. do i think their brain picked it up as anything they would respond to? no. they'll say biden is being dramatic. biden is overreacting. this is not the -- they'll go into their whole spin cycle of all of this stuff they say. their ears received it, their brains didn't. that's the problem we're in today. i was thinking as you were talking to chris, who i think is great, and that whole issue of crime. that's another whole issue that's being spun in a way that's nonfactual, and i think chris has a responsibility to s

they tried to convert us. they tried to persuade us to let them in. my time compared to iraq, totally different. this is our own citizens, people who we swore an oath to protect but here they are attacking us with the same flag that they claim to represent. it was bad. >> actually what happened on january 6th according to the video we do have does not look a lot like a rock. it's not fulugea. >> this from someone who has never served a day in uniform, someone who will never know the kind of bravery it takes to put your life on the line for democracy. and how about i show you another piece of video? how about you take a look at what it was really like for the police who fought to stop the mob of rioters who stormed the capitol, the mob that hunted lawmakers and the vice president in the halls. and i want you to listen to this guy, this guy scoffing at mike fanone for being brave enough to talk about the trauma he's suffering nearly seven months after that horrible day. >> watch fanone cite the psychological trauma he endured as an excuse for ditching o

that was chilling for us to report out. he was obsessed with not so much whether americans were sick but whether the number on television screens that recorded how many people were sick would go up. so if it was at 14, he wanted to keep it at 14. he didn't care if the actual number was 5,000. when he knew people were sick on a cruise ship, he did not want them setting foot in the united states and he wanted to put them in cuba. he brought it up twice to aides until they got together and said we can never let it happen. it's a public relations catastrophe. at the same time, there were thousands of flights aliving with tens of thousands of people from all over the world. many of them were sick. >> coorsness is something you see in how people treat people. just a fact. include trump tried to joke about the virus for months, sometimes mocking people who were ill. john bolton he said hopefully covid takes out john. that's demented. >> yeah. i mean, like dame nan said, i think we found a number of surprising things in the reporti

letting us hug our loved ones again. letting us get out into the world. letting me see people i haven't seen in two years, right? so you can thank siecience for that. science. science. i had a discussion with my family about science. i said how did you get here? they said an airplane. i said that's sign. you believe in that, believe in the science. so there are people out there who want to talk advantage of people's questions, their he hesitation that are so determined to divide us they will spread every kind of misinformation and lie and put the lives of their own supporters at risk. and just the past week average covid cases are the case rates i should say were about three times higher in states that have fully vaccinated less than half their residents. that is a fact. so what you even say about this, what can you even say about this to your audience at this big conserv conservative jam cpac they fell short of vaccinating 7 0% of adults by july 6th. watch this. >> because clearly, they were hoping, the government was hoping that they could sort of sucke

our law enforcement correspondent is covering it all for us. whitney, as we watch these new images, you are also learning more about ongoing security problems at the u.s. capitol. update our viewers. >> well, these videos are gut wrenching, chilling and the very thing that police officers worry can happen with these constant threats that are still lingering. federal officials warning about ramped up potential threats over the summer. all of this as the agency maintains they have made big changes. tonight roughly a dozen newly released videos show rioters vicious attacks on police. in one video rioters are heard chanting our house. in another, a man in a pro-trump hat fights with law enforcement. and this footage captures the moment a rioter stole a badge and video from a d.c. police officer. six months later, capitol police say the agency is changing to adapt to the threat landscape. they purchased new equipment, offer new training and share intelligence with officers, something absent before rioters attacked the capitol. but officers tell cnn

i think that's why he sat down with us. you know, he said a lot of other things, don in our interview that strained credulity. he said essentially that he thinks most of the people who were charging up capitol hill on january 6th were very loving people, that they were ushered into the building by friendly capitol police officers. he said that he believed that crowd that came out for him on january 6th at the ellipse may have stretched into as many as a million people, the largest crowd he'd ever seen, all cheering for him. none of those things are true, and yet it's important to donald trump that he repeat them. and the question becomes really, you know, how many other people are going to continue to believe this information for which there is no evidence? >> it is really interesting how he lives in a delusion and he gets other people to buy into that. it's amazing. your reporting, carol, about the chairman of the joint chiefs, general mark milley preparing to stop the then-president from attempting a coup, i mean it is st

and the columnist is with us. barry, thank you for joining us. i think that we are all surprised not just yesterday but also today to see simone biles pull out because of course she is so loved and so incredibly talented at what she does. but it is this expectation that perhaps is proving too much for her. >> absolutely. it was stunning, you're right, to sit there in the arena last night, simone biles was expected to lead the american team to another gold medal, that is what she had done five years ago in rio de janeiro, there was no reason despite all the hardships over the last year in particular after the delay of the olympics, after another year of training, after putting off retirement, to believe that she wouldn't go out and do what she always does which is just totally marvel you. instead, she was unable to pull off even a warm-up jump that was to her normal standard. she was clearly out of sorts. and i think there was some bravery to say, you know what, i'm going to do more harm than help here if i stay in this competition. and it is furt

misinformation is killing us. it's killing us. it's killing our democracy, litera literally killing us. the fact is people who refuse to be vaccinated and listen to the dies are propelling the spread of the virus. a virus that kills. misinformation is killing us. misinformation is killing us. just ask the surgeon general. >> millions of people don't have access to accurate information right now. because on social media platforms, we are seeing a rampant spread of misinformation and it's costing people lives. >> we know where a lot of misinformation is coming from. it's coming from some in the gop putting -- owning the libs ahead of lies. lies of their own supporters like the qanon congresswoman, and another member of congress calling vaccinators needle nazis. like the crowd cheering at a jamboree, sheering that the biden administration fell short of its goal, vaccinating 70% of adults by jeuly 4th. >> the government was hoping they could sucker 90% of the population into getting vaccinated. and it isn't happening. younger people -

tom frieden, is joining us right now. dr. frieden, thanks for joining us. could these clusters -- clusters of unvaccinated communities around the country set the whole country back in the fight against the pandemic? >> wolf, we're increasingly becoming two countries divided by covid. in parts of the u.s., where vaccination rates are high, cases are low and not increasing. in other parts of the country, or in communities where there isn't a high-vaccination rate, we're already seeing increases. and i anticipate, in the coming weeks, we'll see further increases. followed, sadly, by more hospitalizations and more deaths. the good news, though, is that our vaccines work extremely well, even against the delta variant. so, if you are not vaccinated, get vaccinated because it is our way out of this pandemic. >> dr. fauci also says the vaccine will protect people from the now-dominant delta variant, if they are fully vaccinated. but does your risk level change, dr. frieden, depending on the overall-vaccination rate in your particular community? >> if there's intens

blake, take us in the room. how are fans feeling there, especially as we're watching the number of covid cases rise? >> reporter: boris, kaitlan, despite now unpopular these games remain because of those health and safety concerns, there is a curiosity. i get the sense that a lot of people are really mixed about supporting the olympics given the current circumstances but at the same time there's excitement that these games now that they are under way are clearly -- desire -- people want to experience the olympic atmosphere in any way they possibly can and yesterday that meant battling crowds to take a picture outside of the national stadium ahead of the opening ceremony and for people today it meant sitting in an auditorium for seven hours to watch the road race and experience that as a community. while they weren't allowed to vocalize their excitement they did use these wood clappers to create a festival-like atmosphere and cheer on competitors. at the same time at the public viewing was going on outside specta

because what used to happen cops used to when first community policing came about they knew who the minister was in the church, who owned the local liquor store, the local drugstore, the local grocery store. and they'd walk in and say, look, i'm joe biden and here's my cell number. you have a number, call me. >> you said it's tough right now. you said police are up against -- well, they're up against the narrative the country is anti-police, democrats are anti-police, joe biden is anti-police. >> they aren't saying joe biden is anti-police. cops are not saying that about joe biden. they know me, period. >> go on. >> they're not saying it. republicans are saying it on the far -- i'm not going to -- anyway. >> no, i want you to talk about this because it's an important narrative. there's no more important issue right now than safety. you can rebuild a home, you can get a lot of things back, but, mr. president, you cannot get back a life. >> that's exactly right. >> and if police aren't doing their jobs -- >> if police aren't doing their job they should be held accountable, they should be fired

when asked, some of them told us that's none of your business. cnn's lauren fox joins us live from capitol hill. she's part of the great reporting. lauren, walk us through it. >> this is part of a survey we've done every few months on capitol hill. we needed to know how many members of congress are vaccinated. how many members aren't vaccinated. and my colleagues andy and sara and i went through our list of members. we still weren't aware of and we learned there are still 97 members that we don't know the vaccine status of either because they didn't respond to the survey, or because we haven't been able to find the information that would normally be available publicly. like tweets or public events they've held. i think one thing this reveals is that even though the republican party seems to be changing its tune when it comes to vaccines. some members even being more public about talking about their vaccine status, there are still nearly half of the republican conference that we have no idea if they're vaccinated or not. you know, kevin cramer who

give us time, give us money. we'll get there. the new president comes in, began -- gani comes in after him. we're not going to get there. >> what's fascinating to me is what every president in theory dreads is a fall of saigon picture, helicopters leaving with the last u.s. troops and questions about who lost this country. who lost afghanistan. but the thing is the biden administration and joe biden is going into this with eyes wide open. he knows what pictures might likely emerge from afghanistan. so, too, did donald trump, by the way, who made the same decision that joe biden. he didn't execute the full withdrawal, but wanted the same thing. it just seems, you know, yes, there is opposition, but by some people not just security hawks, per se, but there is some political consensus that despite the pictures that may emerge, it's worth it. >> and that is the key part of the biden calculation. in the sense that the democratic base is anti-war. the trump base is anti-let's not have the united states policing the world. the president

panel is back with us. let's step back for context at six months and look at numbers. 500 plus arrests in the capitol insurrection. so 100 arrests on assaulting a law enforcement officer. 12 have entered plea bargains. 300 suspects unidentified. the fbi still seeking the pipe bomb suspect. the numbers tell you you see 500 arrests and think wow, impressive job by law enforcement. you see 300 suspects still unidentified, you think wow, this was a giant operation. and yes, progress, but it's a lot of work to do. >> that's right. and i think as we head into august, i don't want to be alarmist about this or be predictive in a way, but we have seen in years past that august is this time for congress when things outside of the building happen. i think there are a lot of concerns about what sort of grass roots efforts are going to get mobilized over the summer and what currently exists in terms of the capitol police structure is ready to handle all of that. >> and it comes back to the previous conversation about th

and what's happening around us is most likely going to affect how we feel about us. also, i blame the biden administration. i had tony fauci on, tonight, dr. fauci. they are not making the case to people, like your cousins and nieces, well enough. and they are not talking the approval talk. 6 49% of people who haven't had the vaccine say, it being fda approved would help them. now, fauci says, ah, it's just k crossing the ts and dotting the is. it's going to happen but it hasn't. they don't talk about it. biden doesn't talk about it. they don't have the fda person outfront talking about the process, when it's going to happen, why it hasn't happened, to reassure them. and think that they are losing the messaging game and it's a mistake. >> yeah. well, there is a lot to discuss on all of this. and again, i think that we can -- we need to continue to do our parts. but there is, you know, something going on in the country out there. and again, this is not like cpac with the people saying, oh, it's -- i am going to do this and the biden -- it's not. but there is, you know

but alex thomas joining us live from london, bringing us the highlights of the game. we appreciate it. thank you. >>> we're also tracking developments off the field and fan reaction. so let's bring in our cnn contributors in london and rome. so italian fans, thrilled, of course, with the outcome. what a success story. so tell us what the fans have been telling you. >> reporter: if you look at every single newspaper in italy today, it looks like something like this. it says, it's ours. these fans are ecstatic. well into the night, horns honking in rome. it was 3:00, 4:00, 5:00 in the morning, there was still activity on the streets. everybody is so excited and so proud of this team. i think this victory brought the country together in many ways, coming off the horrible year of the pandemic. everybody feels a little more optimistic this morning. and i think the hangover of this all-night party will last well into the week. the team just arrived back in rome to meet with the president and prime minister, and everybody is proud of them here in the city and the country. ro

walter, thanks for being with us. so, some of those safeguards put in place are neither hunter biden nor the public will know who bid on or purchased the work, and if there's unusual behavior, like the offer being too high, the collector didn't parkwa appear to be interested, the gallery will turn down the offer. >> they have outsourced government ethics to an art dealer. she mentioned industry standards. it's an industry that's notorious for money laundering. there's no standards in that industry, and the idea that they're going to flag any overly priced offers, well, this is art that hasn't even been juried into a community art sale. how are they going to decide what's unreasonable when they've already priced it in the range of $75,000 to $500,000 for a first outing. this is just preposterous and very disappointing. >> walter, just explain why would the white house be the intermediary for the art sale? i mean, i think that what jen psaki was saying was they thought this would be a way to head off any ethical concern

right now, the shots only have emergency-use authorization. meanwhile, mask mandates are back in california's state capitol, after an outbreak of covid cases among employees. as covid fears ramp up, all over, again. and with this more transmissible delta variant spreading rapidly around the country, some experts say it may be important to start testing even vaccinated people to make sure this variant isn't evading the vaccines. in fact, pfizer said, thursday, it's seeing waning immunity from its covid vaccine and is picking up its efforts to develop booster shots to help protect people from the variants. athena jones, cnn, new york. >>> now, concerning, new study shows the delta variant may be resistant to some monoclonal antibodies. an emergency physician at valley wise health medical center in phoenix, arizona, joins me now, live, from miami. doctor, good to see you, and thanks so much. what -- what do you make of this study that was published in the journal "nature" shows the virus variants can evade these monoclonal antibodies? and -- and,

it's scary. >> the deputy just told us our house is still standing. we just want to check it all out. >> reporter: about 83 fires burning across the country, mostly in the western united states, raging across 13 states. the biggest is the bootleg fire in oregon. it's now burned the size of los angeles. kate. >> dan, thank you very much for your reporting. >>> coming up, the olympic games under way. team usa facing a stunning defeat. >>> president biden talks to cnn about his agenda and accomplishments tonight. he'll face tough questions for sure about the challenges ahead and how he's doing six months into his presidency. we'll discuss. new crest pro-health complete protection kills 99% of bacteria. plus, it works around... ...and around... ...and around the clock. crest pro-health complete protection gives you 24-hour protection. crest. the #1 toothpaste brand in america. ok everyone, our mission is to provide complete, balanced nutrition for strength and energy. whoo hoo! ensure, with 27 vitamins and minerals, now introducing ensure complete! with 3

none of us can say things like that. so what is his administration doing to ensure that there are more people who are doing community research that are coming actually from these communities because i believe that that would instill so much more trust. >> stephanie, that's such an important point because you're right, it's who you know and the trust coming from that community and that kind of an initiative can make a huge difference. it's an important point. i want to stick with you, stephanie and then christian weigh in. but i want to understand specifically what's the kind of misinformation you hear from your families and friends about why they're vaccine hesitant or skeptical? >> a lot of them are relying a lot more on the internet and social media. some of the circles around them. so if you take an inner city black community where you have a grandfather or grandmother raising a lot of her younger children, that grandmother may have directly been part of that network that was used in the us the keegan experiments, som

(crowd applauding) therabreath, it's a better mouthwash. at walmart, target and other fine stores. hey lily, i need a new wireless plan for my business, but all my employees need something different. oh, we can help with that. okay, imagine this... your mover, rob, he's on the scene and needs a plan with a mobile hotspot. we cut to downtown, your sales rep lisa has to send some files, asap! so basically i can pick the right plan for each employee... yeah i should've just led with that... with at&t business... you can pick the best plan for each employee and only pay for the features they need. at carvana, we treat every customer like we would treat our own moms, with care and respect. to us, the little things are the big things. which is why we do everything in our power to make buying a car an unforgettable experience. happy birthday. thank you. we treat every custo

so for us to say and for joe biden, who i support, who i love, who i adore -- for us to say that we have to go out and vote some more, like why did we give you jon ossoff and raphael warnock? >> go ahead, david. >> first of all, i love bakari, and he is a good friend of mine. whenever he starts off by saying, my good friend, axe -- >> i was going to say. >> i know that what follows isn't necessarily going to be all that receptive. but here's my question back to you, bakari. and what? what are you suggesting? what do you think the president should do? should they -- should they, you know, expel members? >> no. i think -- >> what exactly should they do? >> i think the furor, the speech, the oratory is great. but what you have to use instead of the bully pulpit has to be focused on two people, joe manchin and kyrsten sinema. you're the leader of the party. you are the standard bearer. it's your responsibility not to go out and get 60, but it's your responsibility to go out and get two and make it 50 so that we actually have what -- if it's that consequential, because that's my point. if you

what do they show us? >> what they show us is just look at the people who are unvaccinated. if trump strongly urged you to get the vaccine, would you be more likely to get it? just 15% of the unvaccinated said, yes, they'd be more likely to get it. even among republicans, it's just 20%. oftentimes, we say the republican base will just go where trump tells them. i don't think that's necessarily the case. it's certainly not the case here. oftentimes, it's about trump reading the base. and that, i think, is part of the reason why he has not come out and said, you know what? you should go get vaccinated. with as much vigor as you might normally expect. he has said you should but not with this much vigor. he know it won't work with them and he doesn't want to be quote/unquote a loser and say, look, i gave everything i could to people getting vaccinated. he doesn't want to go that route and these numbers tell you why. it's because most republicans, they don't even want to listen to donald trump when it comes to the vaccine. >> harry enten, you ever earned a good weekend. thank you

you know, they theeneed the moderates to sign on to the legislation to pass it using party lines, using budget reconciliation which means no republicans need to sign on to pass it through the senate. and will this proposal affect the bipartisan infrastructure framework that was proposed by another group of senators and its passage? there is a group of republican senators that say they don't want to support the infrastructure proposal that they signed on to support because they don't want democrats trying to pass their own infrastructure deal. so a lot of questions here as they start this process to fast this budget reconciliation bill. >> thank you very much. >>> as america reopens, there are undeniable echos of the dark days of theestimates that the da variant accounts for 58% of cases in early july. and all of the warning signs are there, just look at these numbers, hospitalizations are ticking up for the first time in months across the country. it is important to note the progression of this, we've been here before. first the cases go on the rise, and then hospitalizations and then s

it's very useful. dr. jerome adams, thanks so much for being with us. >> thank you, john. >>> republican lawmakers in texas now launching a second effort to pass sweeping voting restrictions at a special session called by the governor. texas democrats blocked republicans' first attempt in may by staging that dramatic walkout. the republicans there did concede two of the most controversial provisions, limits to early sunday voting hours and language that would make it easier for courts to overturn election results. measures that make casting mail-in ballots harder, banning drive-thru voting centers and partisan poll watchers all still in the proposal they're talking about in this special session. >>> joining us now, attorney and contributing columnist at the washington post, george conway. >> hi. >> nice to see you here. >> thanks. >> what's going on in texas? inevitable governor abbott would call this special session to push this through. the courts in georgia and other places have said, we're not going to

used car prices $26,000. are you kidding me? used car price $26,000. so you can see that actually the auto part is a big part of the inflation story. a third of this gain in inflation was just used cars. that's going to work itself out. >> we also have to remember that high inflation hurts low income americans the hardest. and those are, of course, are the same ones really hurt by the pandemic. >> got to keep our eye on the wage numbers. a lot of americans will be willing to take some inflation if it means their wages appreciably increase. >> some of the eating out numbers are higher because restaurants have to pay more to get their workers back. >> great to see you both. thank you. >>> coming up, we have brand new reporting emergency hot line the white house is considering setting up with china. >>> plus, a hacking gang that attacked u.s. companies mysteriously vanished from the internet. so where did they go? and who might have gotten rid of them? i've got big news! now, nurtec odt is the first and only medication proven to treat and prevent migraine

we must have legislation, we must have the president use his voice, use his influence, use his power. >> joining us now with their reporting and incite, jeff zeleny, molly ball of "time," cnn's lauren fox and jonathan martin of "the new york times." this week we had news from one of the most important people in biden world, congressman jim clyburn, largely responsible for joe biden being in the white house in the first place. but he took -- he said something very important about the filibuster. he said, president biden could pick up the phone and tell senator joe manchin, we should do a carveout. i don't care whether he does it in a microphone or on the telephone, just do it. this is the frustration going from the activists standing outside of the white house all the way to capitol hill, to the most important voice in biden's ear on the hill. lauren, what's the impact of this? >> i think you are hearing from progressives and clyburn's voice is an important one, that they want joe manchin to change his mind on the filibuster. he is not the only one standing in the way of changes to tha

most fundamental issue before us in this moment, and we have to use every tool at our disposal to ensure that in every election, state, local, and federal, that every vote is protected. >> michigan was targeted by the former president and his supporters trying to overturn the election. lawmakers including sidney powell, lin wood, sued using witness statements that claimed supposed fraud, right? well, today they faced a district court, judge linda v. parker grilled them on whether they had tried to verify those statements, saying this. there's a duty that counsel has that when you're submitting a sworn statement, that you have reviewed it, that you have done some minimal due diligence. how do you think today's hearing went? >> well, it was six hours, so it certainly was -- it was a very educational experience, i think, for a lot of folks who watched it. it shows that there is a lot of due diligence happening with regards to this question before the court. should there be consequences for when attorneys use their privilege and access to the court to try to undermine democracy with no facts
