with putin. even calling it diplomacy is, i think, insulting because this is hostage-taking pure and simple. >> bret: is there any human interaction with evan? >> so, in terms of the communication that evan has with his family, principally and with his friends and us in the newsroom, it's mainly -- well, it's all via letter, letters we can write to him. the letters get translated they then get passed through the prison center and he can write letters back to us in russian that are censored and translated when they get back to us that don't speak russian. he is visited regularly by his russian lawyers. they are a lifeline for him. and he has had sporadic visits from the u.s. ambassador lynn tracy. and she is able to feedback to evan's parents about his well-being. >> bret: is there any hope? do you see any glimmer of anything changing in recent months? >> putin has a couple of times

mentioned evan publicly. it is always difficult to know what that might mean. but, i think we were all optimistic, i think the fact that he has even acknowledged evan publicly is a sign that perhaps some sort of deal could start to take shape. i think we are all optimistic that some sort of swap, some sort of deal will be put forward in the near future. but, that i hope isn't born as optimism as much as it is interest any knowledge i might have. >> bret: all of us are pulling for his release and it was striking to watch journalists from all over read his articles continuously. >> i'm laura coat. cnn chief analyst. i'm bret baier. it is an honor to read from the colleague evan gershkovich. >> it's an honor to read from the work of our colleague evan gershkovich. >> bret: it was kind of a moment of solidarity. >> absolutely.

these pro-palestinian anti-israel protesters. inside and outside that venue. i think we have over that to show our folks at home what was going on. saying things and chanting things like shame on you and genocide joe has to go over his policy of support towards israel and the war in gaza. this is really for president biden the foreign policy issue that he cannot shake. >> yeah, you are right. i mean, listen, he is raising an impressive amount of money. but, republicans also are used to having contend with this. we are consistently outraised in elections around the country whether it's a senate election, house election, presidential. of course, president trump, former president trump was certainly outraised in 2016. significantly whenever he beat hillary clinton. so, while it's not the only indicator, it is one that the campaign has to be concerned about and i'm sure they have a plan to get his fundraising numbers up. as it relates to president biden, he has a problem with his base and a problem with

independents. it doesn't matter how many moves he takes to step away from our strongest ally and friend in the middle east, the state of israel. even abstaining from the vote in the u.n., gillian, is not going to be enough to appease. have a problem with the far left. going to have a problem with independent, moderate americans because inflation is going up. so when you go to the grocery store, you are seeing the price of milk. you are seeing the price of eggs. you are seeing things to slowly particular back up again. it's very frustrating as a person responsible for buying groceries in my home. can i tell he that is frustrating. you are seeing inflation go up and crime continue to increase around the country. and interestingly, local news, local outlets around the country reporting about the crime coming from illegal migrants. so these are things that are going to be incredibly challenging for president biden going into november. >> gillian: jeff, a sign we are in the thick of a general election campaign, biden took some really personal jabs at

[laughter] >> he is trying to contrast and in this is the contrast that is sort of giving it back to trump what i think he feels like he has gotten from him. and is he doing in a big room like that, i was in the room last night with the white house press pool. it was a very energetic, very electric feeling but those protests you were references more with morgan absolutely had an impact. you heard biden make some jokes like that about trump. make some jokes about himself. put his aviator grasses on at the end and say dark brandon lives. it was, i think the democrats will have seen it as good night. certainly the financial strength

that they wanted to show with the 25, 26 million that they brought in is something that they are using to say there's a lot of enthusiasm for him. and they are also using it apro-pro-rhetoric to sort of raz trump. and it seems to be getting under his skin. infrared the trump campaign said president trump plans to have a big fundraiser as well and make even more than that we will see if that happens he is getting personal and feels trump has gotten personal with him. >> the optics of the former president being at the fallen officer's funeral and looking at the stage, jeff, you were there. i don't know if came through watching from a distance. stephen colbert 59 about to certain 60. president obama is 62, i believe. bill clinton is 77. and president biden is 81. going to be 82 next year. and i don't think no matter how much money you can you can't de-age. that's the issue to her aim along with what morgan mentioned the border. i just don't feel good and i

think double the amount of money you can't reduce the age that you are with dollars. >> gillian: interestingly, hugh, you know, historic amount of money they raised also reflects the fact that they closed out last month with more than double the amount, the biden campaign, more than double the amount of money as the trump campaign. they said this last night unlike our opponent, every dollar we are raising reach the voters who will decide this election. that obviously. campaign. use being some of the donation for his legal defense. >> >> i will defer to jeff the real reporter. more began and i are commentators. i don't think this is an election where money is going to matter. i really don't. do you? >> i don't know the answer to that. but i do know the evidence 2016, that certainly is something that the trump campaign on its side. on the other hand, money does help with advertising and it does help deal with some resources if you bolster your

base, which biden does need to do and there is divisions on the republican side as well that money would probably help. >> final word real quick, morgan, today marked the one year anniversary of the detainment of evan gershkovich in russia on trumped up charges wondering of what you make of what the biden administration is doing. could they be doing more? >> they could always be doing more to not just evan the men left behind in afghanistan in august of 2021., the five americans that remain six months later in custody that a ares who frabletion hamas. speaking of evan, listen, this is the first reporter since the cold war that russia has detained on trumped up charges, spy charges specifically. i think it was powerful today seeing the "wall street journal" have that empty page where he hasn't been able to report. listen putin is a thug. the only way you will get these people home is if you can negotiate from a position of

strength. and this is why whenever we gave $6 billion to iran for american hostages. traded victor for brittney griner. i said there will be more terrorist groups kidnap them from ransom deal for them. i'm going to kick did off tonight. we have a very special winner here at "special report." our new viewer was born yesterday to senior national correspondent our good friend rich he hadedson and his wonderful wife liz. though welcomed baby nina to their family yesterday. their first child. she is so beautiful. she came in at 7 pounds 15 ounces. miraculously everybody in the family is doing great. liz was a complete champion. so congratulations and all of our best wishes and love it them. look how beautiful she is. all right. you are up first. who is your winner?

accountability for joe biden's failed policies. >> if you care about the border ought to get the national security supplemental pack. >> the inmates are running the asylum nbc. >> we have known this about diddy for decades, meaning people see they haven't been talking. >> never bet on baseball any other sport. >> i said i will give you three strokes if you carry your own bag. >> well, coming up monday on "special report," a florida car chase is revealing a possible connection to havana syndrome. we will have that thanks for watching "special report." i'm gillian turner in from washington.
