02:33Let's get the deal done so we can get a ceasefire to end the war.

02:38Let's bring the hostages home and let's provide much-needed relief to the Palestinian people.

02:45She adds, she's committed to a path that leads to a two-state solution.

02:53We call to say Michelle and I couldn't be prouder to endorse you.

02:58In related news, Harris releases her first campaign ad featuring the music of Beyoncé.

03:04We choose freedom.

03:50to secure the opening ceremony.
