1
00:00:00,560 --> 00:00:03,800
Speaker 1: News when you wanted. With Bloomberg News Now, I'm Doug Prisner.

2
00:00:04,000 --> 00:00:07,720
Speaker 1: Vice President. Kamala Harris has all but neutralized Donald Trump's

3
00:00:07,720 --> 00:00:11,319
Speaker 1: advantage sean economic issues. That's one conclusion that may be

4
00:00:11,440 --> 00:00:14,840
Speaker 1: drawn from a recent poll that said the overall numbers

5
00:00:14,880 --> 00:00:18,440
Speaker 1: are very close. Here's Bloomberg's Amy Morris on the latest

6
00:00:18,480 --> 00:00:20,520
Speaker 1: Bloomberg News Morning Consoled poll.

7
00:00:20,760 --> 00:00:23,560
Speaker 2: Swing state voters have consistently said the economy is their

8
00:00:23,600 --> 00:00:26,440
Speaker 2: top priority and that they trust Donald Trump more with that.

9
00:00:26,880 --> 00:00:29,760
Speaker 2: This poll shows Kamala Harris chipping away at that lead.

10
00:00:30,080 --> 00:00:33,040
Speaker 2: Trump's advantage on this issue among likely voters as now

11
00:00:33,159 --> 00:00:36,240
Speaker 2: just four percentage points, and when likely voters were asked

12
00:00:36,240 --> 00:00:39,000
Speaker 2: who they trust more to handle the cost of everyday goods,

13
00:00:39,240 --> 00:00:42,159
Speaker 2: it was a virtual tie forty seven percent for Trump

14
00:00:42,320 --> 00:00:45,519
Speaker 2: forty six percent for Harris. The results hint that Harris

15
00:00:45,560 --> 00:00:48,840
Speaker 2: is benefiting from a stump speech in campaign ads focusing

16
00:00:48,880 --> 00:00:52,600
Speaker 2: on her economic agenda. Her debate performance may have also helped.

17
00:00:52,800 --> 00:00:55,520
Speaker 2: Forty three percent of likely swing state voters now say

18
00:00:55,520 --> 00:00:59,040
Speaker 2: Harris has the more detailed policy positions, compared to forty

19
00:00:59,040 --> 00:01:02,920
Speaker 2: percent for Trump in Washington. Amy Morris, Bloomberg Radio, New York.

20
00:01:02,760 --> 00:01:06,200
Speaker 1: City mayor Eric Adams has been indicted on bribery and

21
00:01:06,280 --> 00:01:10,280
Speaker 1: fraud charges following a federal corruption probe. It's the cumbination

22
00:01:10,400 --> 00:01:13,160
Speaker 1: of a month's long investigation into the mayor and his

23
00:01:13,280 --> 00:01:18,240
Speaker 1: closest allies, including now former police Commissioner Edward Caban and

24
00:01:18,400 --> 00:01:22,520
Speaker 1: school's chancellor David Banks. Here's Damian Williams, us attorney for

25
00:01:22,560 --> 00:01:24,640
Speaker 1: the Southern District in New York As.

26
00:01:24,680 --> 00:01:27,959
Speaker 3: The indictment alleges Mayor Adams engaged in a long running

27
00:01:27,959 --> 00:01:32,600
Speaker 3: conspiracy in which he solicited and knowingly accepted illegal campaign

28
00:01:32,600 --> 00:01:35,600
Speaker 3: contributions from foreign donors and corporations.

29
00:01:35,720 --> 00:01:39,880
Speaker 1: Prosecutors detailed improper relationships that Adams allegedly had with a

30
00:01:39,920 --> 00:01:44,679
Speaker 1: Turkish diplomat dating back to his time as Brooklyn Borough president.

31
00:01:45,040 --> 00:01:48,640
Speaker 1: The indictment alleges Adams engaged in years of sustained corruption,

32
00:01:48,760 --> 00:01:51,680
Speaker 1: accepting more than one hundred thousand dollars in lavish bribes

33
00:01:51,720 --> 00:01:55,120
Speaker 1: from foreign nationals. Speaking at a news conference on Thursday,

34
00:01:55,200 --> 00:01:58,120
Speaker 1: Adams vowed to continue leading America's largest city.

35
00:01:58,360 --> 00:02:00,840
Speaker 4: From here, my attorneys would take care of the case,

36
00:02:00,880 --> 00:02:04,080
Speaker 4: so I can't take care of the city. My day

37
00:02:04,120 --> 00:02:08,280
Speaker 4: to day will not change. I will continue to do

38
00:02:08,400 --> 00:02:12,040
Speaker 4: the job for eight point three million New Yorkers that

39
00:02:12,160 --> 00:02:13,760
Speaker 4: I was elected to do now.

40
00:02:13,800 --> 00:02:16,320
Speaker 1: Adams is said to appear in court on Friday, where

41
00:02:16,360 --> 00:02:19,360
Speaker 1: he will be formally charged and will likely enter a

42
00:02:19,400 --> 00:02:22,560
Speaker 1: plea of not guilty. New York's current mayor isn't the

43
00:02:22,560 --> 00:02:26,600
Speaker 1: only one making headlines. Former Mayor Rudy Giuliani is also

44
00:02:26,680 --> 00:02:29,280
Speaker 1: in the legal spotlight. We have that story from Bloomberg's

45
00:02:29,320 --> 00:02:30,639
Speaker 1: Nathan Hager in Washington.

46
00:02:30,919 --> 00:02:33,639
Speaker 5: Giuliani is no longer licensed to practice law in the

47
00:02:33,760 --> 00:02:36,399
Speaker 5: nation's capital. In a brief order today, the DC Court

48
00:02:36,400 --> 00:02:39,200
Speaker 5: of Appeal said it is matching the former mayor's disbarment

49
00:02:39,240 --> 00:02:41,720
Speaker 5: in New York from this past summer over his efforts

50
00:02:41,800 --> 00:02:44,120
Speaker 5: to try to overturn the twenty twenty election when he

51
00:02:44,160 --> 00:02:47,480
Speaker 5: was former President Trump's personal lawyer. The DC Court says

52
00:02:47,480 --> 00:02:50,880
Speaker 5: it offered Juliani a chance to argue against disbarment after

53
00:02:50,919 --> 00:02:53,720
Speaker 5: the New York decision, but he didn't respond. The former

54
00:02:53,760 --> 00:02:56,239
Speaker 5: mayor spokesman says today that the move is a quote,

55
00:02:56,400 --> 00:03:00,320
Speaker 5: absolute travesty and a total miscarriage of justice in Washerrington.

56
00:03:00,440 --> 00:03:01,200
Speaker 5: I'm Nathan Hager.

57
00:03:01,240 --> 00:03:05,639
Speaker 1: Bloomberg Radio Vice president Kamala Harris and Ukrainian President Vladimir

58
00:03:05,800 --> 00:03:10,000
Speaker 1: Zolenski gave joint remarks today in Washington. This after Zelenski's

59
00:03:10,080 --> 00:03:13,960
Speaker 1: visit with President Biden, and Harris doubled down on her

60
00:03:14,000 --> 00:03:16,480
Speaker 1: support for Ukraine in its war against Russia.

61
00:03:16,639 --> 00:03:22,000
Speaker 6: Forraut Putin's brutal aggression and war against Ukraine. My support

62
00:03:22,040 --> 00:03:26,000
Speaker 6: for the people of Ukraine is unwavering. I've been proud

63
00:03:26,040 --> 00:03:27,320
Speaker 6: to stand with Ukraine.

64
00:03:27,480 --> 00:03:29,200
Speaker 2: I will continue to stand with.

65
00:03:29,240 --> 00:03:34,160
Speaker 6: Ukraine, and I will work to ensure Ukraine prevails in

66
00:03:34,240 --> 00:03:34,800
Speaker 6: this war.

67
00:03:35,080 --> 00:03:38,560
Speaker 1: That is Vice President Harris during joint remarks with Ukrainian

68
00:03:38,600 --> 00:03:42,160
Speaker 1: President Vladimir Zelenski in Washington now. Earlier in the day,

69
00:03:42,200 --> 00:03:46,360
Speaker 1: President Biden announced eight billion dollars in new assistance for Kiev,

70
00:03:46,520 --> 00:03:51,040
Speaker 1: and he sought to assure Zolenski of continued Allied support.

71
00:03:51,360 --> 00:03:55,120
Speaker 1: The Ukrainian president is in Washington to detail a victory plan,

72
00:03:55,600 --> 00:03:58,320
Speaker 1: a blueprint, he says, is aimed at winning the war.

73
00:03:58,840 --> 00:04:00,960
Speaker 1: And that is news when you want with Bloomberg News.

74
00:04:01,000 --> 00:04:03,080
Speaker 1: Now I'm Doug prisoner, and this is Bloomberg
