Transcripts For CNNW CNN 20240704

Welcome to all you watching us here in the United States, canada, and around the world. Im kim brunhuber. This is cnn newsroom donald trump, racking up more wins in the fight to be the republican president ial candidate bots. Nikki haley has new poll numbers to help her make the case at other critical soup for tuesday contests. The us begins aid drops into gaza, but its nowhere enough to meet the enormous need details. Plus what we know about the efforts at a ceasefire and hostage deal before ramadan and Travel Nightmares in california as the state gets hit with a late Winter Storm Super Tuesday voting in the us gets underway in a little more than 48 hours with president ial nominating contests and more than a dozen states, 865 delegates are up for grabs for republicans, it takes more than 112 delegates to when their president ial nomination. And a strong showing by donald trump could make his lead almost insurmountable. Trump racked up more wins on saturday, he claimed nearly 85 of the votes in idahos republican caucuses compared to just over 13 for rival nikki haley missouri is republicans also held caucuses on saturday, trump commanded a whopping one of that vote. Trump now has 247 delegates compared to haleys 24 jams. Steve contorno has more former President Donald Trump held rallies on saturday in North Carolina and here in virginia, two states that will vote on Super Tuesday but even though their primaries are right around the corner, former President Trump was mostly looking ahead to a likely General Election with President Biden. He spoke especially about his recent trip to the border and what he saw bidens conduct on our border is by any definition a conspiracy to overthrow the United States of america thank you. You know, he talks about democracy he is a danger to democracy he is. Number one, it goes after his political opponent, which nobodys ever theyre done in this country. They do it in third world countries very well. They do it. But then i can to succeed with us. Theyre not going to succeed. Making a stronger its Making A Strong Biden and his accomplices want to collapse the american system, nullified the will of the actual American Voters that established a new base of power that gives them control for generations. Meanwhile, former South Carolina governor nikki haley, on the Campaign Trail as well in North Carolina, continuing to make the case that she would be more electable than President Trump in a General Election, pointing to a new poll that showed her with a tenpoint lead over President Biden. I think theres another they are times poll that shows us. I think donald trump squeaks by and we went by ten points. If you look at the hispanic numbers in that, its off the charts. Thats double digits continue to make ground trump on saturday, also adding to his delegate lead over nikki haleys projects that he has won all 32 delegates in the idaho caucuses. All 54 delegates in the missouri caucuses. And at a Michigan Convention held on saturday, 39 more delegates were awarded two President Trump. His total now at 02 47. Well, on his way to the 1,215, he will need to secure the nomination. Of course, many of those delegates will be awarded on tuesday steve contorno, cnn, richmond, virginia. Oh, you wanted to tell you more about New York Times and Siena College poll. Steve mentioned a moment ago, it surveyed 980 registered voters during the last week of february in the results were concerning for President Biden, only 18 of respondents thought that theyve personally benefited from bidens policies meanwhile, 40 of respondents say they did personally benefit from trumps policies. Still, cnn poll of polls shows the race for present, a toss up at the moment. The most recent numbers and a General Election matchup continue to show no clear winner between the two with trump at 48 and biden at 46 were now, trump is trying to turn his focus to the general Election Campaign and President Biden, during a stop in North Carolina, the former president call himself a dissident and made a series of false claims about the multiple legal issues hes involved in area every time the radical left democrats, marxist, communist, and fascist indict me, i considered a great badge of honor im being indicted for you. I am. Thank you very much. I appreciate it. I stand before you today not only as your past and hopefully future president , but as a proud political dissident and as a public enemy of a rogue regime. This is a rogue and Dangerous Machine now, trump is currently facing dozens of criminal charges in four different cases. There are election interference cases at a federal level, and in georgia, hes also been indicted for his handling of classified documents and proceedings get underway later this month in his new york Hush Money Case meanwhile, donald trump is cozying up to autocratic leaders like hungarys nationalist Prime Minister viktor orban, or ban is due to visit maralago trumps florida home this week. A lot like writer tom nichols spoke to cnn about that earlier and he says, other european leaders, or take note here, yes. I think were already hearing it from european leaders that they fully expect that if trump is elected, that nato will be on the chopping block. The russians will be able to do in trumps words, whatever the hell they want that their security will be endangered, which means eventually our security will be endangered. Unlike americans, i think the europeans are actually listening to trump and taking him seriously and believing what he says about what hes going to do. I think in the United States we have a normalcy bias. We just sort of wave it away and say nothing could ever really get that bad things cant change that fast this time around. I mean, trump got really close to some of this the last time around this time around he he has people around him who have figured out how to work the levers and turn the knobs. And thats going to be incredibly dangerous. Us first lady, jill biden is ramping up her role in her husbands reElection Campaign. She went on a threeday tour of key battleground states, launching women for Biden Coalition in a light on friday, she fiercely criticized former President Donald Trump, warning that he could be a threat to women if he returns to the white house. Shes had trump has quote, spending a lifetime tearing us down and devaluing our existence. But the first lady was interrupted several times. I pro Palestine Protesters while campaigning in arizona on saturday, less ill protesters were interrupting the first lady, the first us airdrop of aid was on the ground in gaza three american c13 is dropped, 66 bundles of food over gaza on saturday. But President Biden says the amount of aid going into gaza is not nearly enough. Meanwhile, Vice President Kamala Harris is due to meet with israeli war cabinet member benny gantz on monday. Now it comes as a us official tells cnn that israel has quote basically accepted a sixweek ceasefire and hostage release proposal in gaza. Now, negotiators are waiting for hamas to agree to a quote defined category of vulnerable hostages on saturday, gazas ministry of health. So at least 11 palestinians were killed in an israeli airstrike in Rafah Refugee Camp next to a maternity hospital. Israel says it was targeting Islamic Jihad terrorists and terror infrastructure. That group is now urging attacks on checkpoints in the west bank and jerusalem during ramadan the palestinian Islamic Jihad spokesman also calling on palestinians to block roads used by israeli settlers. Cnns Paula Hancocks has more on whats happening in gaza we are expecting more aid airdrops over gaza in the coming days. This after what we saw saturday, the us and the Royal Jordanian air force dropping aid along the coastlines of gaza now the us said that they dropped 66 bundles. That was 38,000 meals. No water or medical supplies in this air drop, but they say that they did consider it successful as they were monitoring the area afterwards and said that they saw civilians come out to take the aid and then distributed it. Now jordan and the uae have already been doing airdrops over recent days, and we know that other countries are considering whether this is the way to try and get desperately needed aid into some of the hardest hit areas of gaza. But we are hearing from some humanitarian aid groups this is not the ideal way to try and get the aid in. They say, in fact, one called it a bandaid measure to try and help those desperately in need. Of course, once the aid lands in gaza, there is no organized distribution, there is no control over who gets this aid and theres no guarantee that it will get to those who desperately need it. What were hearing from humanitarian aid groups from the un agencies, and weve been hearing this for months. Is that israel needs to lift restrictions on what gets into gaza restrictions at the crossings and restrictions of transporting the aid of round the gaza strip wants it is inside. We heard also from us President Joe Biden saying that he was going to insist to israel that they had to allow more humanitarian aid to get in. There is also questions as to why other crossings between israel and gaza have not been opened. In particular, one that is closer to gaza city and Northern Gaza, which is an area where very little aid has managed to get through now, one thing that all humanitarian aid groups agree is that a ceasefire would allow them to get humanitarian aid into to where it is needed. Now we have heard from a Senior Biden Administration official that the sixweek ceasefire has basically been agreed by israel at this point, but we do also know we heard from qatari officials this week that there are still details to be hammered out. Weve heard from israel that they want list of hostages from hamas and also which are alive and which are not. Now, we understand from this Senior Biden Administration official that effectively the ball is in hamass court there waiting for hamas to respond. Were also hearing from two sources familiar with the negotiations that these negotiations will continue in cairo. So we are expecting representatives from the us, israel, hamas, and egypt to be talking in cairo, although we dont have an exact timing of that, israel and hamas obviously not talking directly, but in separate rooms. We understand from these sources. So there is some hope that a ceasefire, no matter how temporary may be in the offing in coming days Paula Hancocks, cnn, abu dhabi the death toll from that tragedy and aid convoy in Northern Gaza thursday has risen to 118 according to the gaza health ministry. Now this idf video from the scene showed a huge crowd of desperate people swarming an aid convoy in gaza city. Witnesses say is really course is opened fire hitting civilians and sending the crowd into a panic and he trampled or run over by the aid trucks. Doctors reported dozens of dead and wounded with bullet wounds. Israeli military has a different version of events saying its forces fired Warning Shots to disperse the crowd and criticized any reports of deliberately targeting civilians lossless im not going to if we had secured this operation, this humanitarian operation was carried out by us, not the claim that we attack the convoy and injured people deliberately is baseless. Mushroom. The Un Security Council issued a Compromise Statement on saturday expressing deep concern over the incident. The u. S. Objective to earlier versions of the statement. All right. Want to bring in orlando, whos a deputy editorinchief of the haaretz newspaper, and she joins us now from tel aviv. Thank you so much for being here with us so the deaths surrounding the Aid Truck Delivery in Northern Gaza, just the latest flashpoint, but this one has really resonated international only because so many diets were who were there just, just to get food. Do you have any faith that the israeli investigation will be fair well kim thank you for having me obviously the pictures that we saw from that incident were horrible and yes, there are different claims on who actually caused the deaths, but its clear to everyone that the main reason that this happened is because of the situation were in right now where there is no ruling force in gaza because of the war and because israels one of israels main goals is to weaken hamas and destroyed all of its infrastructure. So obviously the chaos that were now seeing is part of that wider framework. Im sure the army will investigate. I can tell you 100 that all the internal investigations are oh, objective investigations. Of course, this is truly no to any country investigating or any authority investigating itself. But still the Bigger Picture is that the problem is the current political wider situation in gaza. Well, lets talk about the wider situation then. Youve argued that this incident just high i liked the fact that Prime Minister netanyahu needs to end the war. Now, you say, before gaza becomes somalia, what do you mean by that so this is from our latest editorial actually calling to end the war now. And you know, were seeing what once kitchen, i think it was kissinger once said that israel doesnt have a Foreign Policy on a domestic one. And on the domestic political level what happened been recently now in gaza doesnt seem to change a lot and the wider picture. But on the other end, we are seeing more and more israelis taking the streets just last night, for example, calling for a political solution, for a political deal. We are seeing more and more israeli voices claiming that there should be a political solution. And today, were actually seeing that the negotiations between hamas and israel are resuming and cairo under much more international and internal pressure to end, or at least pause this war in the meantime, the need is obviously so great. So the us now is airlifting aid in, but many are asking why cant the us just use its influence to force israel to allow more aid in via the front door and trucks so as i said, we are seeing more internal and of course, much more International Pressure to do exactly that and also move forward with the political solution rather than the military one but we still have to remember that in terms of these rarely point of view, there are still three main goals for this war, which is to weaken or destroy hamas infrastructure and freeing the hostages, which is the main one. And this is, of course, you know what the negotiations are about and also a vaguer goal which is preventing any threat from gaza into long term while you know, we are discussing the question of humanitarian aid, that the question whether the whole war will stop or hold at least depends on how the Israeli Government could convinced also the israeli public that these goals are met beyond the effects on israel and gaza. This is having a Spillover Effect on domestic politics here in the us in an Election Year, youve argued that the war in gaza is quote here in feebly biden there, thereby bolstering trump. Why is that . And what choices does biden truly . We have here . Well, i think any american or any other person following what we signed the primaries in michigan saw that the question of the war in gaza was pretty intense during these primaries. And what happened is that we saw more and more or criticism towards biden on this specific issue of his policy here in the middle east. So gaza is becoming more, more of an issue not only for the israel and the media listen for palestinians, but also for americans and their internal elections and while the Gaza Question is weakening, maybe biden internally in his own party, it could actually strengthen donald trump will have to leave it there, but really appreciate getting your analysis. No light, no. Thank you so much. Thank you thousands of israelis have completed a four day march demanding the release of hostages still in gaza, they began at the site of the nova Music Festival where hamas militants killed more than 360 people on october 7 and they ended in jerusalem families of hostages, former hostages, and survivors of the october 7 attacks all join the massive demonstration. Israeli officials believe more than 130 people are still being held captive in gaza, including two children 99 of the hostages are still believed to be alive. And propalestinian demonstrators force the canadian Prime Minister to cancel his Evening Plans with his italian counterpart on saturday. Justin trudeau was expected to attend a reception at an art gallery in toronto with giorgia meloni, whos visiting canada well, they never made it as demonstrators blocked attendees from entering the building. The protesters accused trudeau of funding genocide in gaza and demanded, and what they call the siege of palestine. Red paint was sprayed on the museums doors along with stickers of palestinian flags all right.

Its forced Interstate 80 to close for more than a day and the interstate will remain closed until further notice. Blizzard conditions of reduced visibility on roads taking down power lines and create Hurricane Force winds in some places topping 100 Miles Per Hour. And i look at this employee hes at the sugar bowl ski resort, woke up saturday morning to snow piled up against the door. Cnn meteorologist, at least roth has more on what the west can expect in the hours and days ahead impacts from this winter storm are extreme. The Weather Service using words like dangerous and lifethreatening to describe some of these impacts. Look at all these deep purples and the sierra nevadas, thats where were looking at impossible travel from heavy snow and gusty winds that is not only making Visibility Tough to see, but its even knocking out some power whiteout conditions, damaging winds from those guys, and extremely heavy snowfall rates were talking up to four inches of snow per hour. Some of these Snowfall Totals just through saturday or are measured in feet. Were talking 27 inches from Homewood Mountain and were finding some totals already over 40 inches, 42 inches in king valle, california, soda springs nearing 40 inches. So just incredible to see the feet of snow already falling in these Blizzard Warnings continue through a decent chunk of sunday. So expecting additional feet on top of that and you can see that too. Were all that moisture comes in off the pacific youve got the rain showers along the coast but once we hit some of that colder air in the higher elevations, you get that snow machine to keep pumping as we go through the day on sunday, additional snow likely as we go into monday as well, that were looking at total as possible, up to 12 feet locally and some of the highest elevations over five to 6,000 feet. So some of those tie is peaks up to 12 feet of snow. But even in some of the lower elevations were still measuring that snow three to four to five feet. So just really incredible. And its coming with wind gusts that have been just incredible over 100 miles proper, 114 mileperhour wind gusts that has been reported at Mammoth Mountain in california. Some gusts nearing 150 Miles Per Hour. Your alpine meadows. So this win thats where you get the damaging part of it and you get the whiteout conditions and the Blizzard Conditions as well. Now we can continue to find these gusts upwards of 50 to 60 Miles Per Hour in california as we go through sunday now, but the storm is so impact that those wind gusts or spreading inland into the Central Plains where were looking at wind gusts up to 30 Miles Per Hour possible from albuquerque, elmoro, and then up into the oklahoma panhandle. Now, couple of those gusty winds with incredibly dry air thats where that fire danger is. Continuing. Youve got relative humidity, humidity values that are down to 20 or lower as we go through the next day or so. So thats keeping that fire danger elevated as we go through sunday because we have the strong winds gusting up to 35 Miles Per Hour. We have temperatures that are much above average and we have dry air with those relative humidity values pretty low. Plus we already have drowned. Ground conditions are already dry burn scars where weve had the biggest fire in Texas History over the last couple of days, burning over 1 million acres of land. Heres a look at these temperatures soaring into the 70s and 80s. A good ten to 15 in degrees above average. So again, those dew point values that are so low at the temperatures so high, thats making that air just incredibly dry people in the Texas Panhandle are paying close attention to those dry conditions and high winds, at least two people have died in the wildfire so far, hundreds of structures have been destroyed one man who escaped the flames described what he and his neighbor went through. Listen to this who came this way, really fast and the authorities were trying to evacuate everybody. And smoke was everywhere. You just barely got out he only had the shirt on his back and his dogs. He lost everything now there are actually a number of wildfires, burning in the Texas Panhandle. The largest the Smokehouse Creek fire has scorched more than 1 million acres in texas and more than 30,000 acres and neighboring oklahoma. Utility Officials Say theyll need to rebuild more than 100 miles of power lines all right, and up next the road to the white house apparently goes straight through the border bidens conduct on our border is by any day and phoenician a conspiracy to overthrow the United States of America Donald trump is focusing his sights and attacks on joe biden using Border Security pretty the prime is path to reelection.

This is cnn newsroom republican president ial candidates donald trump and nikki haley were on the Campaign Trail saturday ahead of Super Tuesday contests, just days away. Trump scored overwhelming victories in republican caucuses in idaho and missouri on saturday during his campaign, stops eat mostly ignored haley and focused his attacks on President Biden. Meanwhile, haley touted a new poll that suggested she could beat biden by a wider margin than survey gave trump. 15 states will hold gop nominating contests on march 5, Super Tuesday, as its known, 865 delegates are up for grabs that day.

He spent much of his Campaign Rally on saturday going after President Biden and his Immigration Patient Policy less and less bidens conduct on our border is by any definition a conspiracy to overthrow the United States american. And lets face it, this country is a mess. We got 1,516 Million People came in and they came in from prisons and jails. They came in from mental institutions and insane asylums. Theyre terrorists that drug dealers. We are really going to be a very different country. We have to abbott stopped now those comments follow the former president s trip to the u. S. Mexico border last week as he makes Border Security a central part of his Reelection Bid Biden was also at the southern border this week, just 300 miles away from trump. He called on his likely 2024 opponent to join him in support the bipartisan Border Package Dalton Congress to end the border turmoil immigration remains a contentious issue throughout the us, not just the border states a bill passed by the Georgia State house will allow police to arrest anyone suspected of being in the country illegally. Interest in toughening the states Immigration Losses picked up steam after the killings of Nursing Students like im riley on the University Of Georgia campus 11 days ago, a 22 yearold Nursing Student was laid to rest friday over critics of the bill believe it targets immigrants forcing them to leave in fear campaigning in mexicos president ial election has begun, the field includes two candidates, one of whom could become the nations first female president. Now ahead of this summers election, candidates are pledging to cut down on widespread corruption and deal with a rampant Crime Problem cnns Gabriela Frias is in mexico city with a closer look for the first time in mexico, a woman could become precedent next june when the biggest election in the countrys history takes place, the president ial campaigns officially Just Launched senator suchi galvez, the underdog Opposition Coalition candidate, held an event in the violence strong central state of psychotic as right after midnight, centering her message and her campaign on her strategy to combat violence and insecurity promising to bring back peace to its citizens. Galvez, a computer engineer and entrepreneur, described her Security Strategy d, as one of bravery, heart, and mind one were hugs for criminals will be over a play on president Lopez Obradors phrase, hugs, not bullets when describing his Government Lemon Strategy using Public Resources to tackle social challenges at root of the problem. Galvez, who leads a main opposition alliance, also called for a new chapter sara of bilateral cooperation with the United States to combat what she called a common enemy. Meantime, Claudia Sheinbaum, the candidate of the governing coalition held her Campaign Launch friday afternoon at the socolow, the main square in mexico city, the capital. She governed until she stepped down to run for president Shinbone A Chemical Engineer called the coming election a historic choice between continuing the transformation that precedent Lopez Obrador started or allowing corruption practice this has to come back. Same been presented 100 goals to accomplish what she described as the mexican humanism unique in the world. She said a third person potential contender, congressman Jorge Alvarez minus from moby sudano or citizens movement, launch his president ial bid from the state of hawaii school, the first its want to be governed by his Political Party and one torn by violence from competing drug cartels. Mexicos General Election will take place on june 2 for the first time. All 32 of mexico states will hold elections for local seats well, Analysts Expect three months of very intense and polarizing political campaigning across the country with a high risk of Political Violence. In some cases, around 100 Million People are called to cast ballots for more than 20,000 Police Across the country millions of mexicans abroad are also expected to take part in the process. There is no reelection in mexico. President Lopez Obradors term in october. Gabriela frias cnn, mexico city and joining me now to talk more about the Upcoming Elections is karen zizza, the editor in chief of the Americas Society and Council Of The Americas online site thank you so much for being here with us. So youve been covering elections in mexico for years now. So first, how unusual and significant is it for mexico that the two leading candidates are women . Well, it is extraordinary and theres a lot of excitement around the fact that there are two leading women to two candidates are women leading now, mexico does have certain parody laws in place that have meant that it, mexicos become a leader in term of winter, terms of womens representation in politics so you have Gender Parity in congress. You have a woman ahead of the central bank, head of both houses of congress so we are seeing very broad representation by women. But this is, this would be the first time that we would have a woman president and mexico. And all of this, as you laid out certainly example to many other nations, at least specifically on that. So take us through the two candidates roughly. I mean, how do they differ well the interesting thing about Claudia Sheinbaum and such still gavas is that they actually few interesting things in common. Theyre close in age 60. 61 they both going into Politics Around the same time, around 2000 when the country was transitioning to democracy. And they both have stem backgrounds. They both have science and engineering and that those types of backgrounds, so some interesting similarities. But beyond that, there are some big differences clinician bomb is seen as the success for successor for Andres Manuel Lopez Obrador, who is a very popular and populist president then in place, and shes promised to continue with his policies. Some of that has included includes ideas like reforming the judiciary, reform, reforming the Electoral Agency and on the other side. So total gathers has warned that some of those types of moves actually will weaken mexicos democracy, weaken its institutions. And during a recent trip to washington, she warned the Biden Administration actually to take a closer look at concerns around democracy in mexico. All right, so you brought up the vitamins ration the Us Mexico Border obviously a huge flashpoint and no more so than during an Election Year here in the us of what might that mean specifically on immigration and cooperation with mexico, whod be more amenable to, to play ball with either president and biden or a President Trump weve seen that the onload administration has worked closely with the white house with both donald trump and with joe biden. We can assume that an incoming president would try to, were not, its not really clear that Claudia Sheinbaum would be able to at the same sort of warm relationship that we saw in the case of when trump was president and low and trump had a surprisingly close relationship but generally theres been a lot of bilateral cooperation will see that that could potentially try to try to continue with that. One thing to bear in mind though, is that kardashian mom, she just held an event in july. What is near the border, and she was very clear that the Mexican Mexico will not be a subordinate to the United States. It seat will seek to be a partner for mexico. It has a lot of its own domestic issues that voters back at home are very concerned about violence and crime are the top concerns for voters in the election. And theyre going to be looking for, but candidates are gonna be looking. And the next person will be looking for the Us Government to do its part also in stemming the flow of guns into mexico, which armed those Organized Crime Groups and more than 70 of illicit guns seized in mexico can be traced back to the United States. So were going to see a push and pull between both sides. And we heard in that report coming into this, there is a high risk of Political Violence. I mean, what form do you expect that to take . Who will be the targets . I mean, what are you expecting to see yes, sadly, we have seen some examples of attacks on candidates already and in recent years, Organized Crime Groups using attacks on officials and candidates as a means to really show that they pip potentially try to have an impact on particularly local Election Results so it is definitely a concern in this election and something that were hearing a lot of conversation and concerned about sadly, theres been theres been a history of Political Violence in mexico but we are that will be something that were going to be seeing discussed certainly in this election.
