Speaker 1: has a pipeline of more than two hundred billion dollars

67
00:03:37,800 --> 00:03:41,520
Speaker 1: of proposed hydrogen projects, but progress in the emerging industry

68
00:03:41,560 --> 00:03:44,680
Speaker 1: has been slower than hoped as project backers struggle to

69
00:03:44,720 --> 00:03:47,680

70
00:03:47,720 --> 00:03:50,480

00:03:50,520 --> 00:03:52,560

Speaker 1: and Japan in his hometown of Wilmington, Delaware next weekend

75
00:04:04,600 --> 00:04:06,720
Speaker 1: and finally storing up a five. Donald Trump ruled out

76
00:04:06,760 --> 00:04:10,760
Speaker 1: another presidential debate against Carmela Harris overnight as her campaign

77
00:04:10,800 --> 00:04:13,720
Speaker 1: announced a massive fundraising haul. In the hours after the

78
00:04:13,720 --> 00:04:17,719
Speaker 1: two candidates met on stage, Trump, the Republican nominee, posted

79
00:04:17,760 --> 00:04:21,280
Speaker 1: on truth social media in all caps, that there will

80
00:04:21,320 --> 00:04:25,200

81
00:04:25,279 --> 00:04:28,080

82

Speaker 1: hundred thousand donors in the twenty four hours after her

83
00:04:30,560 --> 00:04:33,719
Speaker 1: debate against mister Trump. This week's debate was the first

84
00:04:33,760 --> 00:04:36,560
Speaker 1: time that mister Trump and Miss Harris had met in person,

85
00:04:36,560 --> 00:04:39,400
Speaker 1: and the Vice President largely controlled at the tenor and

86
00:04:39,560 --> 00:04:42,680
Speaker 1: was able to bait her opponent into agitated responses, some

87
00:04:42,720 --> 00:04:45,520
Speaker 1: of which contained what do we call them? I suppose,

88
00:04:45,560 --> 00:04:49,520
Speaker 1: exaggerations and mistruths. That's it for the oufternoon report for Friday,
