Alive. Look at capitol well hill on this friday morning. Good morning, everyone. Im kasie hunt. Its wonderful to have you with us we begin with the fallout from a shocking details about North Carolinas republican candidate for governor coming to light. A new Cnn Kfile Report tracked down the Internet History of current Lieutenant Governor Mark robinson and found he he wrote inflammatory inflammatory posts on a Porn Site, Message Board more than a decade ago. Some of the messages include robinson calling himself a quote, a black nazi, and quote other posts praised slavery or ridiculed Martin Luther King junior as a quote, Commie Robinson denied the story, even when cnn laid out the details leading to this discovery how do you explain all of the matching details on this profile . The profile on Nude Africa lists your full name as Mark Robinson via email listed on the account is an email that you used us. You have used elsewhere theyre on the internet, including with your photo. You have used that name many soldier on multiple Social Media accounts, including twitter, pinterest, black planet, and youtube. How can you deny with all of these matching details that this is you . Look, im not going to get into a new Sheriff House on my manufactured this all these salacious tabloid lives. But i can tell you this. Theres been over 1 Million spent on me through ai by Billionaire Son whos bound and determined to destroy me. The things that people can do with the internet. Now it was incredible Robinsons Denial Hasnt done much to ease concerns of some republican allies on capitol hill, some of whom are calling for him to drop out of the race pretty sad to go this far along and then to the people who supported him, all the money that hes raising i think he needs to drop out today. I definitely want to read what the allegations are and the comments on it. I myself Cant Support Anyone, if that all turns out to be true dropping out isnt likely to be a viable option anymore. That deadline to do that lapsed a few hours ago at midnight and these revelations also, of course, matter because of the president ial election, the Harris Campaign has quickly worked to tie trump to robinson, sending out this picture with the caption. Best friends, Donald Trump has long endorsed robinson for governor, who spoke highly of him during campaign stops in North Carolina over the past several months its been an unbelievable Lieutenant Governor, Mark Robinson. This is Martin Luther King on steroids. I think youre better than Martin Luther King. I think you are Martin Luther King times two. Mark robinson is out there. Hes fighting fighting these are great one. I want to thank okay. Very good man. And he is in there fighting is fighting and we know hes a fighter the next governor of North Carolina, Mark Robinson and. Joining us now. To talk about all that. Kevin frey, Washington Correspondent for Spectrum News New York one, kevin, good morning. Wonderful to see you. So look, republicans already have a lot of concerns about Mark Robinson because of some of the things he said about women, about the Lgbtq Plus Community and others. But this is next level. Whats next for him . Well, hes not going anywhere by all indications in the North Carolina Republican Party basically sent out a statement last night backing him up, bashing Kamala Harris, bashing this is a political hit job, but look, i mean now republicans have to grapple with what exactly the path forward looks like. This is a state that trump won only by a little more than a percentage point. The lasko around. And so it was already seen as kind of ripe for the picking, for harris, this go around so kevin larry sabato, who runs the Crystal Ball, he calls it, which ranks races moved he posted this after this broke the Crystal Ball is just had an Emergency Session and then the fastest Rating Change in our history, we are moving nc gov wendy, to likely have this is something that when i talk to sources, Bakari Sellers Will Sit on this set and talk about it endlessly, both on air and in the brakes. This race at the, at the top of the State Ticket Yeah for the gubernatorial race is so far gone that its giving Kamala Harris a much better shot of winning at the president ial level, there are some people who are convinced that this is going to make, change the deal for them. Im not convinced yet. I mean, i think its still very close to the president ial level, but it really is putting it in play for harris in a way that it wasnt before. Yeah. I mean, look, North Carolina is a purple state with a Red Hue and if you look at its history, the voters, there are more than happy to split their tickets. Theyve had a lot of democratic governors and a lot of republican senators. But at the same time, the question is, could this have an Anchoring Effect on trumps chances . In this state . The idea of reverse coattails is not really necessarily always proven out to be a thing that actually happens where, for example, a lower person, lower on the ballot might lift the president ial ticket. Democrats are certainly hoping that would happen when biden was atop the ticket in some of those key Battleground States where the senators were doing well but could this maybe have the reverse implications of making people maybe sit out and not won of vote because theyre so turned off my Mark Robinson that im just not going to participate that could help harris to yeah. I mean, the reality is it is, you know, we cant we have some recent polling. I think this is a Quinnipiac Poll that we have among likely voters in North Carolina that shows harris up. I would say most people i talk to dont say thats actually where this race in North Carolina stands. Its really very might even. But she has put it in a play, in a way that biden did not when he was at the top of the ticket, partly because shes energizing African American voters, black voters. Yeah. I mean, this state, the last time it went for a democrat was 2008 with Barak Barackobama atop the ticket. The hope is from the harris, his Point Of View is that she can galvanize the black support, galvanized black women in that state in a way that biden was not able to and perhaps tip this Over The Edge. But by all indications, its a Razor Edge which can sort of raise for sure. All Right. Kevin Frey Forces morning cannon. Thanks for starting us off. I appreciate it. All Right. Coming up next here on cnn this morning, foreign adversaries trying to make their influence known, stealing information from the Trump Campaign. How that could impact the november election.

The incident was filmed. Cnn cannot confirm firm whether the bodies that were thrown over the building were dead, although the bodies are motionless and a Pure Lifeless joining me now with more is cnn international anchor, Max Foster. Max, what are we learning here or well, it is disturbing videos, so be prepared for what youre about to see. It was filmed near jeanine in the west bank, as we understand it, it was witnessed by him associated Press Reporter and another journalist. And as you say, we havent confirmed whether these bodies were dead, but you can see there a body getting caught on some wires, the soldiers up there on the roof. And then loosening the body from the why it can go down we also see a second body on the Roof Thatll be Coming Up a soldier picking up the persons hands and other its feet and youll see them toss it Over The Edge there and finally, there is another one where they kick a third body off the side of the building. So lots of witnesses to this, lots of videos from different angles were pretty sure this obviously happened. And the Idf Isnt denying it, but they do say this is a serious incident. But does not coincide with idf values. And the expectations from idf soldiers thats what the military told us in a statement The Incident is under review. Case difficult to watch all of that. And of course, this against the backdrop of fears of escalation of wider conflict in the region as well. In the wake of the attacks that israels not taking responsibility for, the attacks where those devices were exploding across lebanon but clearly this is a tinderbox on so many levels. Everything, every instance adds to that tinderbox doesnt it . So we had those explosions across two days within lebanon. We now have a lot of Crossborder Activity as well. Thats been ramped up the israeli saying theyre taking out weapon positions, hezbollah weapon positions. They dont appear to be in built up areas, but certainly things are escalating all the time and its huge amount for crn and it is very complex as we all know in the background is this Peace Process as well, some developments there as we understand it from the israeli side. But well wait to see how that plays out. Because so many influential people in the region feel the one way you can help ease tensions, the most is by getting to some sort of Peace Agreement between whats happening between hamas and israelis in gaza yeah, im Max Foster for us this morning. Max, thank you very much for that report. I appreciate it all Right.

Good morning, everyone. Im kasie hunt, made it to friday its great to have you with us, us intelligence officials warning that iran has emerged as one of the most aggressive foreign powers trying to influence this Years President ial election the latest example coming to light earlier this week, Law Enforcement officials revealing that iranian hackers sent stolen information from Donald Trumps president ial campaign to people associated with what was Joe Bidens Campaign over the summer. Theres no indication that bidens staff ever replied a Campaign Official telling cnn the Material Wasnt used still, trump taking the opportunity to baselessly claim that Kamala Harriss campaign was quote, illegally spying and quote, he wrote this on truth, social. Will kamala resign in disgrace from politics . Will the communist left pick a new candidate to replace her . Iran isnt the only threat. Fbi director Christopher Wray says the attacks are only going to get more complicated only going to get more severe, more complex, more challenging as adversaries like china, russia, and iran turn increasingly to ai, to infiltrate our networks and still are information all Right, joining us now washington Post Columnist Josh rogin. Josh, good morning to you. Always wonderful to have you on the show can you kind of Dig Into for us, into what we learned this week and how its different from im efforts weve seen in the past well, you know, for the iranian part of it, i think this is actually very similar to things that weve seen in the past is going as far back as 2016, youll remember that the russian Military Intelligence hacked and dumped a ton of information about the Deal Dnc and hillary clinton campaign. And theyre just been a number of those over the years. And the iranians are just pointing it at the Trump Campaign. Its a pretty wellknown tactic. The other thing that the fbi announced this week was that the chinese government has been taking over armies of zombie computers, whole of the world, hundreds of thousands of them actually, for a different reason, not for interference, but for espionage and for attacking corporate and other organizations. So its, its not new to have foreign governments using Ai And Other Technologies to hack and dump cyber, infiltrate. But the scale of it is unprecedented and the new technology makes it that much easier for these Enemy Governments to perpetrate in that much harder for the fbi to defend against josh. What are the differences among these various adversaries and how they approach things and Iran Versus China versus russia for example you know, thats a great question. I think theres two sets of differences. One is targets and one is tactics. So on targets its pretty clear based on everything that we know that the russians favorite Donald Trump, the russian government is, were using, its, its intelligence and cyber tools to help the Trump Campaign against the harris camp. And on the other hand, is also very clear that the iranians favor president , Vice President harris, and are using their cyber tools and against the Trump Campaign and the chinese are kind of split. They dont seem to really have a strong preference so thats in terms of targets, in terms of tactics, what we saying is is, is that the iranians have a very sort of lowlevel shortterm goal which is just a mess with us in perhaps mess with the Trump Campaign and the chinese have a much more longterm goal, which is to embed themselves in every Router And Dvr Machine And Webcam that they could find, not just in america, all over the world, theyre playing a much longer game and thats because their goals are corporate espionage, intelligence gathering, and then a possible attack later, if and when they attack taiwan, for example, that they can prevent us from retaliating. So i think that basically rounds up the differences between these well if these bad actors, thats fascinating, josh government prepared, i mean, do we stack up in terms of our capability to this threat you know, the u. S. Government is actually the most prepared out of any organization in the world. They have the most resources, the most people, the smartest people the problem is that defenses so a lot more difficult than offense and the attacker is only have to be Right once and the defenders have to be Right 100 of the time. Its a Cat And Mouse game that you know, the technology doesnt stop advancing the enemys wont stop coming. But if i wanted to, any organization to defend my Business Or Organization or political campaign the fbi is the cream of the crop. Theyre the best that there is but no, its never, its never enough and its never going to stop i want to show you something that congressman Mike Turner had to say. Obviously important in the context of this conversation about what we learned around the iranians on the attack im to hack for the Trump Campaign for biden. Lets watch we dont have all the Evidence And Information yet to remember. We went to the russian hoax where they said that trump was colluding with russia. These are actual questions that need to be asked. I think whats really important . And here also is to look at the issue that i ran has shown its clear preference for the harris candidacy. Youve got both there. Theyre clear indication that they wish to assassinate President Trump and his cabinet members. Addition to then them hacking in his campaign and taking what should be considered confidential information from his campaign and giving it to his opponent of course, the intelligence chairman, there also referencing what we did learn about a little bit earlier this year as well, which is this apparent attempted plot to assassinate Donald Trump. You were talking about tactics and being different interested in different things how do you explain or understand the difference in terms of what iran wants to see from the president ial election versus say what putin wants Right . Well, although it seems that the russian government and the iranian government prefer different candidates, their overall goal is the same as to mess with american democracy, to undermine the integrity of our elections. Our politics and to make the argument that theyre autocratic repressive system is somehow better than hour free and open and democratic system flawed as it is. So in that theyre perfectly aligned. And as for the tactics they work together as well, because you know, whether comes to military cooperation, Intelligence Cooperation technological cooperation the russians and iranians are as close as lips and teeth. And so we cant separate those two threats despite the fact that in this particular election, they seem that preferred different candidates. And thats why we have to work with our allies and the other free and open societies to pool resources and tactics and technologies to push back because in the End Hour System and our capabilities are much stronger. But we have this idea that we should have free and open elections and they have been idea that vicious attack those elections on that goal, the russians and iranians and the chinese and the north koreans, by The Way, are all working together for thats for sure very cheerful. Josh rogin. Thank you very much for being with us this morning. I really appreciate your insight. Happy friday alRight, lets turn now back to this story. North Carolinas Republican Nominee for governor is refusing to drop out of the race. Its after a Bombshell Report exposed dozens of inflammatory comments he made on a Porn Site Message Board. More than a decade ago, Mark Robinson is denying any responsibility for the posts in which he called himself. A quote, black nazi and quote, he praised slavery and he may derogatory comments about Martin Luther King junior this is not us. These are not our words and this is not anything that is characteristic of me nor has it ever, has it ever been. This is not claims that we would ever say or even think. How can you deny with all of these matching details that this is you . Look, im not going to get into a new Sheriff House on Mike Manufacturer this all these salacious tabloid lives. But i can tell you this. Theres been over 1 Million spent on me through ai by Billionaire Son whos bound and determined to destroy me. But things that people can do with the internet now was incredible. Robinson is facing calls to step down or approve the reports are false, but the deadline to exit the race was midnight read what he wrote, you know, he said that now hes lying by denying it. You know, we said it it fits with his character this person clearly just failing the character test. Well, like i said, hes he said theyre not true. Lets see if he can assure the people of the state that the details the can help them feel confident they arent true all Right, joining us now to talk about all at andrew desiderio, Senior Congressional reporter for punchbowl news. Andrew. Good morning to you. Morning. Another day. And here we have a candidate with quite a salacious list of comments on websites porn websites, straight up. There do seem to be these escalating calls for him to step aside, but it doesnt seem like hes going to do it. Right. And lets remember that this race, even before all of this came out, was likely to go towards the democrats, Right . And there was a concern, again already before this Story Game out that this could have an effect up and down the ballot, a negative effect for republicans up and down the ballot. You see the Harris Campaign trying to pounce on this as well, trying to connect Mark Robinson to Donald Trump obviously mark Donald Trump has long praised Mark Robinson. Hes probably the reason why he is why Mark Rutte im anderson, is the Republican Nominee for governor in that state in the first place. So you see the Harris Campaign really trying to take advantage of that. And what you hear republicans saying is that this has him being on the ballot and this whole controversy has the potential to flip North Carolina to the democrats, which if Kamala Harris whens North Carolina, its pretty much all over. Donald trump loses the election. Its very hard for him to get to to 70 if he doesnt have North Carolina and its interesting, you mentioned that trump endorsed robinson and is a big part of why hes there because thom tillis, of course, the republican senator from North Carolina, who won that Senate Seat from democrat, Right . Because its not as though North Carolina hasnt recently sent democrats to the state statewide office at the federal level he was, he endorsed robinson, Right'>Opponent Right . He endorsed robinson since opponent in the primary. He had said at the time that there were all of these things that could potentially come out about this guy because, you know, a lot of us was widely known in the state, at least among republican circles, that there was some stuff out there about this guy that could potentially come out. Senator tillis had said that at the time and he actually tweeted late last night that i believe he uhe used the words. Its beea tough day for North Carolina republicans. I think thats an understatement, but he immediately shifted his focus to the president ial race and saying that republicans should, should do everything in their power to make sure that the controversies with Mark Robinson do not not reverberate to the president ial race. And he said, there, we must stay focused on races. We can win, which of course would indicate that he does not believe that Mark Robinson is going to be the next governor. He has an endorsed him in a general election either. Again, even before this story came out because there was so much already out there about this, Right . I mean, this is the latest in a long list of things, andrew, while i have you is the government going to shut down before the election really put spot here . Look, weve got about ten days until the deadline Right now, House And Senate appropriators are creating what is going to be a threemonth package to fund the government of Stop Gap Bill that will include probably some disaster relief, a Secret Service funding patch. Of course that weve been talking about in the wake of this second Assassination Attempt against former President Trump and, you know, theres, potentially other things that could be looped in that the administration is asking congress for what im Hearing Spring is that itll be released over the next few days and then youll see the house take action.

As the president of a national coalition that was born out of the civil Rights-movement'>Rights Movement of the 1950s in 19 that legacy has been attacked by the trump endorsed candidate for governor of North Carolina Mark Robinson Take A Look at the socalled, wise move with of the 1960s communist you, that to manipulate people in this country. So many things were lost during the civil Rights-movement'>Rights Movement. So many freedoms were lost during the civil Rights-movement'>Rights Movement. That shouldnt have been lost joining us now is my wildly the author of the new memoir. Remember, you are a wily maya. Congratulations on the new book. I think youre face says it all in reaction to the comments that we just played from the current Lieutenant Governor of North Carolina, Mark Robinson. He of course, in the news overnight, i want to ask you about that briefly and then well talk about the book because he was he said derogatory things about Martin Luther King on porn websites whats your reaction . Horror. Frankly sadness, deep sadness, and a lot of anger mean the anger is that any of this language from anybody, no matter who they are, im should be denounced. Its factually inaccurate for sure. But its really devastating and dangerous to a country thats already seeing so many divisions being manipulated, created on race when we actually have made important progress that we should not lose. And we have more progress we need to make. But to be a Black Man who reportedly as referred to himself as a black nazi, to be a person who comes from a history of subjugation who takes the mantle of antisemitism who takes the mantle of White Supremacy is a different kind of danger. Its a rarity. We should make that very clear but its really devastating because it allows the white supremacist extremist, Right . They have a Wing Man that gives some cover for their racism and a way to point to it and deny that its racism you of course we introduced here and this book is really about your Familys Story and the fighting that you did to change some of the things that you were just talking about, some of the realities that hurricanes black americans lived with for so many years in this country you called your Parents Marriage and Integration Story. Tell us a little bit about that. And what brought you to write this book well, ill start with what brought me to write the book to answer that question about my parents because i wasnt going to write a memoir. I was on the faculty of the new school and i was going to write this book about social movements because it seemed like such an important topic for people to understand that the hashtags of black Lives Matter or times up, or the fight for 15 Minimum Wage were not hashtags they come from a long tradition of struggle and a combination of a lot of struggle over many years. And my Parents Story was very much that including that Integration Story that my father being an organic Chemistry Professor at the University Of Syracuse and dont ask me about my Chemistry Street by and my mother being a student in the English Department different and department but a Graduate Student and then shaping and activists in her own Right, but coming out of a racist west texas community, southern baptist community. But having found her way out of racism on her own meeting, my father and then deciding very quickly because they were in love and because it was more than a decade before loving versus virginia, the supreme Court Case that finally said it was not that was unconstitutional to bar interracial marriage. They got married. They had to make that decision very quickly because it wasnt a society that would be success, would actually accept a Black Man in a white woman dating. So they just hopped Right into marriage and im thankful they did. Indeed. What do you hope that people take from this book in terms of what they bring to the whatever struggle it is that is in front of them today. I think as we think about what were seeing in the News Cycle of what were seeing in our politics, of what were seeing in people struggle. Its about, i really learned from my parents the importance of understanding what peoples lived experience is where injustice happens, happens, and why, but also how it affects all of us, how it so deeply affects this country. But that we have to have a personal Connection And Compassion to transcend this, we have to have organizing and we have to have activism. And they are not separate from compassion. They are not separate from the ability to try to create a bigger tent and have a conversation with people we dont agree with. And trying to help people understand peoples experiences that may be different from their own. And how important that is to democracy, and how coordinate is to all our communities and people. And thats the story i wanted to share. The book is remember you are a widely a memoir, Maya Wiley. Thank you so much for being here for this. Youre gonna stick around and be with our panel at the top of the show. Thank you. All Right. Time now for sports Dodgers Superstar Shohei Ohtani mixed Baseball History with one of the greatest performances of all time, Carolyn Manno has more this mornings bleacher report. Carolyn, good morning. Good morning. Kasie. It is Shohei Ohtanis world and were just living in it. The japanese phenom is where no Baseball Player has ever been before by accomplishing the first 50 Home Run 50 still season and major league history, when into yesterdays game, against the marlins with 48 Home Runs and 49 stolen bases. It didnt take him on to start adding to those numbers. He grabbed his 50th still in the first inning and added that number 51 in the second that is the speed now, how about the power launching his 49 to run in the sixth inning, sending a to run bomb to the second deck to come within one of the 5050 club and then in the seventh ohtani came to bat. Again. It was runners on second and third with two outs incredible is he wasnt done yet. He went on to blasted doctors record 51st run in the ninth inning. Ohtani finished the Game Sixperson six at the plate with ten runs batted in. Hes now the first player ever with three Home Runs and multiple stolen bases in a single game around for a long time and to do something thats never been done. Hes one of one and it couldnt be more talented player. He couldnt be more humble. I think out of respect for the game, were Gonna Go after him he hit a Home Run. I mean thats just part of the deal. Hes hit 50 of them hes the most talented player ive ever seen he is doing things that ive never seen done before. Four in the game and if he has a couple more of these peak years, he might be the best ever to play the game if all that wasnt enough. Ohtanis performance ensuring that he will play in october for the first time in the big leagues, the dodgers crushing the morning kharlans 24 to clinch a Playoff Spot for the 12th consecutive season. Remarkable stuff. The cleveland guardians also clinching a spot in the postseason in dramatic fashion, by The Way, being the twins three the to on a walkoff single from Andres Jimenez and the bottom of the tenth inning, they come from behind. Win was the guardians leagueleading 42nd come comeback win. On the Season Team celebrating with Champagne And Beer showers in the Clubhouse Cleveland now has a chance to possibly and baseballs longest active World Series Title drought, dating all The Way back at the 1948. And finally, it was a long time coming. But Jets Quarterback Aaron Rodgers has a win for the first time at Metlife Stadium playing in his first Home Game tearing his Achilles Tendon and last years season opener, the 40yearold showed no signs of slowing down rodgers through two touchdown passes. The jets flew to a dominant 243 win over the patriots i feel pretty good tonight. I was doing some things i did as younger man so ive, you know, ive said it, you know, as the game hes gone. Im going to feel more comfortable moving around a little bit and there were a couple of times where i need to extend place and sometimes games like this, you need those little extra plays. It you know, i used to do a lot when i was a younger player, but its nice to have that on my back so this Game Something of a salvo for jets fans, kasie who were holding their collective breath, but as you heard in rogers say he heard the crowd there behind him, any felt pretty young. So well see what happens moving forward, but and good Starting Effort for him for sure yeah. No, i appreciate the candor and Shohei Ohtani, man, what a privilege it is to be able to watch that guy play baseball. Hes just amazing carolyn, im making know how much you love the game, yet know, i really do. Its great.
