US President Joe Biden said it is necessary for Kamala Harris to defeat Donald Trump in November.

"Watch what happens. It's a danger. He's a genuine danger to American security… We must, we must, we must defeat Trump," he told CBS News in an interview broadcast Sunday.

He stated that Americans are at "an inflection point in world history," explaining that actions taken today will influence the next 60 years. According to Biden, "Democracy is key."

Last week, the president suggested changes to the United States Supreme Court, advocating for term limits and an enforced ethics code for justices. He also urged Congress to enact a constitutional amendment that would restrict presidential immunity, citing the Court's ruling that a president is entitled to extensive protection from prosecution for "official acts", thereby elevating the chief executive above the law.

Harris and Walz 'hell of a team'

Regarding Harris' selection of Minnesota Gov. Tim Walz as her running mate, Biden said he speaks to the VP regularly, citing that Waltz was a "great guy".

"I've known him for several decades. I think it's a hell of a team."

Announcing that he plans to join them in campaigning, he whisked away fears about his mental acuity and performance, reiterating that he had a "bad day in that debate because I was sick. But I have no serious problem."

Gaza ceasefire 'still possible'

Regarding a ceasefire in Gaza, Biden stated that it was "still possible," adding that "the plan I put together, endorsed by the G7, endorsed by the UN Security Council, et cetera, is still viable."

He also vowed he was "working literally every single day - and my whole team - to see to it that it doesn't escalate into a regional war. But it easily can."

Biden, an alleged champion of Democracy, made no mention of the international laws pulverized in the genocide in Gaza nor the massacre of hundreds of Palestinians in al-Tabieen school. 

Al Mayadeen's correspondent in the Gaza Strip reported today, Sunday, that the al-Tabieen school massacre in Gaza City carried out by Israeli occupation forces at dawn on Saturday has been deemed the deadliest atrocity in northern Gaza since the al-Maamadani Hospital massacre.

Our correspondent reported that only 75 of the victims from the massacre have been identified, while many remains belong to unidentified individuals. Due to the horrible condition of the remains, paramedics have resorted to estimating that every 70 kilograms of remains counts for one martyr.

AFP reported body parts being strewn around the ruins and charred, bloodied bodies slumped in the wreckage of the two-story complex. 

John Kirby told reporters on Wednesday that "we are as close as we think we have ever been" to a ceasefire, citing that gaps are narrow enough to be closed and that both sides need to accept the current proposal to move forward.

Kamala Harris leads the former president Donald Trump by four percentage points, 50% to 46% in Wisconsin, Pennsylvania, and Michigan, all crucial states months before the election, fresh polls by The New York Times and Siena College revealed.

Registered voters questioned believe Harris is more intellectual, honest, and temperamentally fit to rule the country than Trump. Many Democrats, however, have an issue with the fact that she is not willing to stop the transfer of weapons to "Israel" amid the war on Gaza.

The findings will boost the Democrats as Harris and running mate Tim Walz continue campaigning, attending a spate of events in swing states that are likely to influence the outcome of the election.

On Saturday, the candidates conducted a rally in Las Vegas, Nevada, where the Biden-Harris ticket won by more than two points in 2020.

In Pennsylvania, where Biden defeated Trump by just over 80,000 votes four years ago, Harris' favorability rating among registered voters has increased by 10 points since last month, according to Times/Siena polls.
