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

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

because what used to happen was cops used to, when it first -- community policing came about -- they'd go in. they knew who the minister was in the church. they new who owned the local-liquor store and the local drugstore. the -- the local-grocery store. and they'd walk in and say, look, i'm joe biden. here is my cell number. you have a problem, call me. here is my cell number. >> you said it's tough right now. you said police are up against -- well, they're up against the narrative that, you know, the country's anti-police. democrats are anti-police. joe biden is anti-police. and then, you have -- >> 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 -- anyway -- >> no, i want you to talk about this because i mean it's an important narrative. there is no more important issue, i think, right now, than safety. you can -- you can rebuild a home. you can, you know, get a lot of things back. but, mr. president, you cannot get back a life. >> that's e

i used to kid barack, who's a good friend, president obama. and you know at one point i was always the last guy in the room for real. and every important decision i got to give my advice -- i'd be it last guy before i walked out. and one day he thanked me and i said, mr. president, here's the deal i should be paying you not you me because i get to give the advice and then i get to leave. no, i'm serious. think about it. the one thing that is real, that is different and i feel comfortable with it but it is you're the last guy in the room. you decide is the decision i'm about to make will that cause war, will it cause conflict? is the decision i'm about to make is it going to hurt people, is it going to help people? that's the part that is different. but the living conditions, i mean it's such a great, great honor to live in the white house. but, quite frankly, i kid the vice president like one day barack came over to naval operations, the vice president's residence which is on about i guess 80, 90 acres and it's a beautiful, beautiful spot and

larry joins us now from nairobi. so, larry, it is a desperate situation for people in the tigre region. what more are you learning about what they're facing at this time? >> reporter: rosemary, we're learning that cash and fuel is running out in this region, that 400,000 people have already crossed over into famine, and the u.n. is warning another 1.8 million are on the brink. this is at a time where aid agencies are facing access shortages. the world food program only recently began more shipments of food and other nutritional supplies, and these are their last stocks. many of the aid agencies have not been able to access the northern part of ethiopia where so many people need food aid and that is a problem for them. we've heard from our eyewitnesses and cnn reporting on ground government forces are blocking access to the regional capital. and because of that black ade, it's nott easy to access people in need. the government sees this as for them a humanitarian decision for life to return to normal for humanitarian

thank you for staying up for us. what are you learning about this gymnast and what it could mean for the team? >> reporter: yeah, so this is another person who was tested here on the ground and that test came back positive. we're not certain whether or not she had been vaccinated. vaccines are not mandatory here, kate, for people within the village. though people do get vaccinated, it is not mandatory. we don't know that. and a person is asymptomatic and mild symptoms but have close contact with another athlete so the person that tested positive now in isolation and the person with the close contact now in quarentine and so it goes, kate, this is part of the issue here. they're doing very regular testing. i got tested to be here 96 hours before, 72 hours before and then when we landed. but these breakthrough infections, these infections that are occurring in vaccinated people, oftentimes with little or no symptoms, we're going to see how frequent they are, really within this olympic village. we haven't had a case stu

leana wen is, also, joining us. dr. wen, that's something you -- you picked up on, clearly. >> right. i mean, i'm -- i was actually disappointed by president biden's speech tonight or his answers tonight because i actually thought that he was answering questions, as if it were a month ago. he's not really meeting the realities. what that's -- of what's happening on the ground. we now have triple the number of infections in the u.s., versus a month ago. we have escalation in cases, all over the country, because of the delta variant. and we actually don't know the answers to a lot of questions. he was talking about how if you get the vaccine, you're well protected from having severe disease. that's true. but we actually don't know how well you're protected from mild illness. and whether, with the delta variant, if you're vaccinated, could you still be contagious to other people? we don't have the answer to that. >> we don't know the answer to that. because i mean, that's a crucial question. >> that's right. >> can you pas

we know you'll keep us updated. let's bring in to share insights, professor of medicine and surgery at george washington university. doctor, i want to show the viewers, you see the increase in covid around the world. the orange and the red are the worst. even in the countries where you see the beige color, that means they're increasing modestly right now. so you have covid on the increase around the world. and you have in japan, an increase in cases, up since july. you were here ten days ago and said they should not hold the olympics. it was too dangerous. you heard salena wang. officials look at the numbers and say we'll be on top of this, but they're making the case the numbers are lower than they anticipated. do you think this is being handled right? >> well, i did think, and i continue to think that these games should not be held. right now the virus is surging in japan. only 21% of the japanese population are fully vaccinated. so the virus is ascendant in japan, and the other issue is they -- the olympic organi

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

telling us what does this mean? >> reporter: biden administration officials are looking at the possibility of setting up this encrypted hotline between the u.s. and china. this is in early stages, these discussions. this idea has actually been mentioned by officials dating back to the obama administration, and some informal conversations with chinese officials. but it wasn't actually formalized until this idea was put into a classified flainto a national trump document. they are looking into the possibility and how they could technically do it. sources tell me if they were to integrate this possibility, they would actually do it as part of a grander effort to reduce tensions, to reduce the possibility of conflict between the u.s. and china. now, the key here also is that china would have to buy into this, and there have been tremendous number of troubles getting in touch with chinese officials over the last two years on a number of issues. that's because china is really top down. but what this tool would do is allow

for medicinal use. 18 states and d.c. allow recreational use. it's a multibillion dollar industry in this country. what kind of game changer would this be if the federal government were to decriminalize pot? >> it would be a huge game changer nationwide. it's so long overdue. we have all these states across the country that are technically out of compliance with federal law. what this bill would do is simply acknowledge that reality that you have on the ground. it would let these states move forward with their legalization models free from fear of federal incursion and we can slowly bring to an end this disastrous war on marijuana that has ruined so many lives across this country, particularly with the overincarceration and arrest of black and brown americans. around 70% of all americans support removing marijuana from the controlled substances act. it would fulfill the will of the people and acknowledge the political reality on the ground. >> i used to be a correspondent based in colorado which was ground zero with the cannabis experiment. they

fauci tried to put a pin in it saying listen to us, not the vaccine makers. the damage has already been done. this all began with a statement from pfizer and biontech. and i'm quoting, vaccine efficacy in preventing infection and symptomatic disease has declined six months. pfizer and biontech believe a third dose may be beneficial to maintain highest levels of protection. they didn't offer any data. only a caveat and an important one that efficacy against severe illness and hospitalization remains high. hours after pfizer's statement, the cdc and fda came out with a statement essentially shooting down that assessment, a message echoed by the white house today. >> the cdc and fda have put out a pretty clear statement last night after the announcement by pfizer, making clear that people who have been fully vaccinated do not need a booster shot at this time. >> notice she's saying at this time. a statement from the fda and cdc went a step further taking a gentle swipe at pfizer for, well, here's what they said. this process takes into account laboratory data, c

and made a commitment to build a nation for all of us. all of us. and we moved america closer to fulfilling that promise of liberty and justice and maybe most importantly dignity and equality for all. you know, and perhaps most importantly, we did it together. this was a democratic bill signed by a republican president. a product of passion and compassion, not partisanship. progress that wasn't a political but personal to millions of families. i'll never forget the moment the a.d.a. passed. you may remember pat, standing on the floor of the united states senate and tom harkin rose and the first time, first time in history that i'm aware of, the united states senate, he stood up and he signed in a speech to his brother. tom wasn't just sending a message to millions of deaf and hard of hearing folks, he was speaking to his brother frank. it was personal to him. and to bob dole who lost the use of his right arm in world war ii two laid out in a hospital for almost three years, his injury is list and they've also lasted an entire lifetime. but like so m

joining us now to help us sort it out, we have cnn chief white house correspondent kaitlyn collins and cnn chief congressional correspondent manu raju. chuck schumer seems to be running out of patience for ongoing negotiations with the infrastructure plan, and he's imposing some deadlines. but republicans are saying that that's premature when they don't even know exactly what's in the plan. is that where we are? >> reporter: it really is. we don't know yet if those republican negotiators who are working on that bipartisan proposal, if they're going to vote yes on wednesday. that's the procedural vote that chuck schumer plans to set up. that vote would require 60 votes to overcome any filibuster attempt. that means 50 democrats and they all joine hands would need ten republicans to break ranks. five republicans are saying they're not ready to vote yes because they're in the middle of the discussions. one of the big questions remains the same as it remained for weeks, how to pay for this plan. they're still negotiating. they plan to do that through the course of this evening into tomorro

. # it's evidence of what the data has been telling us, all along. the one thing standing in between relative health and severe illness is the vaccine. and i want to go, now, to cnn's joe jons, at the white house. joe, the white house is really hammering social-media companies right now over this vaccine information or misinformation, i should say. it's -- it's stunning to watch. >> that's for sure. you know, white house versus the media, sounds like a pretty familiar scenario, doesn't it? so, yeah. >> absolutely. >> it's true. first, it was the -- first, it was the -- the surgeon general of the united states. then, it was the press secretary for the white house out on thursday and friday. then, the president, himself, weighing in with that very blunt language about lies killing people. and all of that tells you the white house is very much concerned about the direction that the numbers are going on covid, right now. and they're very concerned about the fact that there are lies out there, misinformation, conspiracy theories, frankly, that americans t

nina dos santos is tracking this for us. the government's handling of this is under scrutiny, the prime minister accused of being a superspreader of confusion. tell us what is at the heart of this. >> reporter: well, at the heart of this is this sort of bifurcation in policy if you like. on the one hand, we have the government plowing ahead with the reopening of the economy as it did on monday despite the fact that the night before, the prime minister and the chancellor had to isolate because they had been in contact with the health secretary who then came down with covid himself which obviously is not a good look. and now we also had yesterday the last opportunity for opposition members of parliament and boris johnson's own government and party to question help before the summer recess. he couldn't even be there in person because he is isolating. and this is how the leader of the opposition put that comment to him as you said saying he is a superspreader of confusion, has been flip-flopping on policies. remember the uk is a

we've got -- we've got to know -- i used to have a great friend who used to play for providence college back in the days when they had great teams. his name was pete mclaughlin. he used to have an expression. god love him, he passed away. but anyway, the point is that what pete used to say and academics weren't his thing. he said, joe, you've got to know how to know. you've got to know how to know. you can walk into the library of congress, one of the greatest libraries in the world. if you don't know how to use the card catalog, figuratively speaking, it's just all happenstance. you have to know how to know. so we started a new manufacturing contracting office in the small business administration to help small and medium-size businesses bid on these contracts. my department of commerce is working to have government agencies connect with new domestic suppliers in every state. that's how we're going to build a future that's made in america. one more reason this is going to make a big difference. each year, the federal government purchases more than $600 billion in goods and services. con

>> matt rivers joins us now. is there an active manhunt for these -- for what have been described as more suspects? the airport, the border with the dominican republic was shut down after the assassination. i would assume they would still be around and visible at the very least. >> reporter: absolutely. manhunt is happening right now to the point where we got an update just a few hours ago with haitian authorities saying that the number of detainees had increased from 17 to 20. they had been looking for eight remaining suspects. now that number is down to five. they are clearly continuing to conduct sweeps across port-au-prince. there's a big police presence across the city as we have seen throughout our time here so far. this is very much an ongoing operation. however, there's a lot of differing information coming out of the government. it's been difficult, frankly, to get an actual pinpoint on what is happening here. take, for example, the fact that 26 columbian nationals as of yesterday, according to haitian o

i think it tells us two things, jake. first of all, we know that donald trump was sitting at the white house enjoying watching the -- the insurrection happening, and it also speaks to when he knew about violence. there's been a lot of pushback oh, then president trump didn't know about violence. right from the start he knew there was violence. that's the oh, crap. for some context on those words oh, crap it was not because i'm told that he was worried about people getting hurt up at the capitol, it was because he was concerned about how it would impact him, that it would look bad for his reputation. >> well, he was right about that. there's also an exchange between vice president pence and the head of his secret service detail who was trying to evacuate pence and his family from the capitol. pence refuses to least. i'm not getting in the car, tim, pence replied. i trust you, tim, but you're not driving the car. if i get in that vehicles you guys are taking off. i'm not getting in the car, up quote. so why is vice presiden

nina dos santos is live for us. this decision of course coming as the uk recorded more than 48,000 new cases on monday and of course it comes on the same day that the country fully reopened. how has it been received and how are brits crucially interpreting the government message? >> reporter: well, it has to be said that the u.s. move hasn't really gained huge amount of traction over here in the uk because obviously the british public has been largely focused on what boris johnson had to say about that so-called freedom day which by the way only really applies here in england. there are other parts of the uk like scotland and wales that have the rights on set their own rules and they are taking a far more slow cautious approach to lifting the restrictions then in one fell swoop like england has done. having said that though, the u.s. guidance about travel that comes actually after the cdc already took similar guidance a while back. so it isn't a surprise there i suppose for international travelers, but what it does,

and joining us now or en liebermann. the white house is saying the president is committed to seeing this through. but there are some real -- and it seems escalating, right, security concerns about what is happening on the ground. should that give him pause? >> president joe biden's decision was knead. he took everybody's account into consideration. it's clear that for years now decades even since he was a senator and as vice president, he wasn't in favor of a massive troop presence. the mission was complete. osama bin laden has been dead for ten years. for him the mission is complete. military officials are also warning the taliban offensive is taking a number of districts, pushing back the afghan military. but for him, that's afghanistan's issue. the afghan military will deal with it and the u.s. issue is done for him. a new relationship. >> that being said, the security concerns include yes, the taliban launching 100 plus attacks every day against afghan forces. the aftghans who helped the united states as interpreters

thank you for joining us today. one model projects if we do not improve the vaccination rate, cases will continue to rise and the u.s. could see a tripling of the current daily death toll, by mid-october. worst case scenario in this modeling, that number could climb as high as 4,000 deaths a day, about as bad as it was last winter. do you think it's possible it could get that bad, 4,000 deaths a day? >> well, when they do modeling, jake, they generally give you the worst case scenario and the best case scenario, but somewhere in the middle, if you look historically at the modeling that has been done over the last 18 months, for the most part, it's been pretty accurate. so i'm not sure it would be the worst case scenario, but it's not going to be good. we're going in the wrong direction. if you look at the inflection of the curve of new cases and, as you said in the run-in to this interview, it is among the unvaccinated. and since we have 50% of the country that not fully vaccinated, that's a problem. particularly wh

i had to use that pun. i guess it's better than being fried by prosecutors. >> i know you like doing that. dave, two years into this investigation, it still doesn't look, and you heard paula reed report this, it still doesn't look like anyone at the trump organization has actually flipped and decided to cooperate with the prosecutors. what else could prosecutors do in their search for this kind of cooperation? >> well, wolf, i think you have seen someone flip, jeff mcconnie, the comptroller. he testified before the grand jury and received immunity as a result. in the indictment, you had things that only an insider would have known, like the keeping of two separate sets of books. one for the irs and one certainly. i think you have seen someone flip. he just is not going to be facing any prison time. and it has been made public. if it is true, he was referred to in the indictment as unindicted coconspirator number one. there is more aside from that that prosecutors could do. they could indict the calamaris. t

cnn's polo sandoval is live for us now out of little rock, arkansas. one of the states seeing a surge. so polo, what are you hearing and seeing there and are people showing up to get their vaccines at the location where you are? >> reporter: not enough, fred. that's what we're hearing from officials. they want to get the word out. a majority of residents here in arkansas actually head out to their locations including this pop-up one that's being set up at the church and get that shot. they want these chairs to be full because as we heard from an official earlier with the university of arkansas for medical sciences, right now, the hospitals are full. a third covid surge is just beginning to gain momentum and that is really underscoring the importance of getting people vaccinated. right now, only about 40% of residents of arkansas have been vaccinated. it's a number that sadly has been kind of stalled and so as that stalls, covid numbers, hospitalizations, new cases that continues to rise especially with those highly contagious delta variant. now, what i

arkansa arwa damon joining us now. what does it mean for the troops on the ground and particularly for iraq? >> reporter: it's strictly 11 manics. instead of focussing on combatting isis and other terrorism maneuvers, the soldiers remaining in iraq will effectively be rebranded as advisory and assist troops versus combat forces. the iraqi prime minister said iraq doesn't need u.s. combat forces, but this progression forward, the fact there will be american boot woos on the ground will come as a big relief to members within the iraqi government and the iraqi population who are greatly concerned about not just the potential resurgence of isis but perhaps more at the forefront at this stage iran's growing influence. now the politicians, the militias that are armed and backed by iran, they may not look upon this so favorably. you'll remember in recent months there's been an increase in indirect fire attacks against u.s. forces. this beings said, the iraqi government has been under pressure to demand all u.s. troops leave i

what the locals we have been speaking to have told us. many of them, still, trapped in their homes, but now running out of food and water. is that when the flash flood came, it was a mighty torrent that came down these streets. there was nothing gradual about it and it happened, the streets filled up with water within a couple of hours. >> the rescuers, going house to house. in germany, the scenes are heartbreakingly similar. in one town, the residents of a disabled care home were trapped. they had been asleep and attempted to get them out failed. across the country, at least 105 people have been killed, with many-hundreds more missing. >> we are doing everything we can to save lives, repair damage, and avert further dangers under the most difficult conditions. >> reporter: but even as europe begins to count the cost of the worst floods in more than a century, its politicians are looking to their lessons for the future. >> it is the intensity and the length of these events -- um -- where science tells us this is a clear indication of clim

nina dos santos is live in london for us. tell us about how this is working, who is accepted and who might be in the future? >> reporter: it is all a bit complicated. what we know is that obviously food supply workers, not necessarily people who stock the shelves, is more people inside the food depots, also people having to transport food from one part of the country to the next. those are the types of people who will be exempt from this. as you said, it will be a scheme that at the moment will be in the early stages encompassing about 10,000 workers to try to alleviate acute shortages in the labor supply chain particularly of the food industry but also in the field sector as well. even people like the metropolitan police here in london are contending with large numbers, having to isolate as well. so this is certainly broader than the food sector, but the government was concerned in particular about lack of food on shelves and then people panic buying and getting in to a vicious cycle. so the way it will work, we'll see the s

one useful metaphor is is smith & wesson responsible for the way guns are used once it sells them? the company says we don't know exactly in real time what happens once it's in the hands of a government client. they do investigations, they do go back and get phone numbers sometimes but they tell us that they have no real-time visibility. is it their fault when abuses happen? it's really up to our readers and your viewers to decide. >> wait a second here. if i sell a gun to a hunter, that's one thing. if i sell it to the head of a drug gang, that's another thing. the trouble is that the countries involved here are known authoritarian regimes. did the israeli companies sell it to the governments knowing their past behavior in terms of handling dissidents, journalists, opposition leaders? >> your metaphor is a good one to appoint. what if the hunter also runs a drug ring? >> jesus. i mean, that's a nice excuse but, i'm sorry. if you're selling this kind of spyware to an authoritarian re regime, you have to bear some responsibility for how it's used. >> i'm not disagreeing with you on
