the vp is also racking up more key endorsem*nts. democratic leaders chuck schumer and hakeem jeffries threw their weight behind her today. we have team coverage of both campaigns and the white house tonight. and cbs's weijia jiang will start us off from milwaukee.

"kamala is brat," which has gone

viral. is it a compliment if kamala is brat? >> yes. 100% it is a compliment. >> reporter: wisconsin rally-goer sarah spragg said it is less about what brat means and more about how harris can connect with younger voters who biden struggled with. >> she is authentically herself, and she is playing with that youthful side. >> reporter: as part of that outreach to younger voters, now that biden's age is not a campaign issue, sources say harris will zoom in on trump's age as part of her case against him. he is 78 years old, and she is 59. that is nearly 20 years younger, norah. >> norah: weijia jiang, thank you. we saw the president today for the first time in a week since his covid diagnosis and his

announcement that he is dropping out of the race for reelection. the president will address his decision in a speech from the oval office wednesday night in the face of questions about whether he can finish his job as commander in chief. cbs's nancy cordes joins us now from the white house. good evening, nancy. >> reporter: good evening, norah. the president returned here to the white house today to a very different political reality than when he left. he is now a lame duck, and aides tell me that biden wants to use his speech tomorrow night to lay out what he plans to do with his final six months in office. one of his goals that we know he will mention is to secure the release, finally, of as many as eight american israeli hostages who have been held by hamas for 290 days now. israeli prime minister benjamin netanyahu met with

hostage families here in d.c. yesterday, and he insisted to them that conditions for a hostage deal are improving, but the families pushed him to accept the cease-fire deal that biden has already laid out, and they want netanyahu to do it publicly when he addresses a joint session of congress tomorrow. hundreds of pro-palestinian demonstrators staged a sit-in at the capitol today in advance of netanyahu's address tomorrow. he is slated to meet with both president biden and former president trump while he's here in the u.s. norah? >> norah: nancy cordes from the white house, thank you. and cbs news will bring you special coverage of president biden's oval office address. that's tomorrow at 8:00 p.m. eastern. with just 105 days until the election, the trump campaign is shifting its strategy and is now focusing all of its attention on vice president harris. cbs's robert costa reports. >> reporter: donald trump's last public rally was on saturday, but today, from mar-a-lago, he held a conference call with reporters and took aim at his new target: vice president harris. he called her radical, falsely claimed she wants open borders, and accused her of aggressively attacking president biden's record on race and busing in a debate five years ago. >> there was nobody nastier than her.

she played the race card at a level that you rarely see, and she really was very nasty to him, and then he picked her, so i don't get that, exactly. >> reporter: republicans are eager to define harris on their terms. vice presidential nominee j.d. vance claimed harris lied about president biden's health and questioned her love of country. >> if you want to lead this country, you should feel grateful for it, you should feel a sense of gratitude, and i never hear that gratitude come through when i listen to kamala harris. >> reporter: vance has long criticized democrats. >> we are effectively run, in this country, via the democrats, via our corporate oligarchs, by a bunch of childless cat ladies. >> reporter: and often with scorn. >> you look at kamala harris, pete buttigieg, aoc, the entire future of the democrats is controlled by people without children. >> reporter: congressional republicans have already made

sharp comments alluding to harris' race. >> a lot of democrats feel they have to stick with her because of her ethnic background. >> reporter: tennessee republican tim burchett has used the term "dei," which stands for diversity, equity, and inclusion. >> 100% she was a dei hire. >> reporter: dnc chairman jaime harrison says democrats will push back hard. >> we are going to make sure that the american people understand who is the party of intolerance, who is the party that is anti-diversity in this nation. >> reporter: and late today, there was a sign of more attacks to come. a house republican filed articles of impeachment against vice president harris, citing the administration's record on immigration, and other house republicans are calling on her to invoke the 25th amendment to remove president biden from office. norah? >> norah: robert costa, thank you very much. the director of the secret service resigned today, one day after admitting the assassination attempt on donald trump was the agency's

most significant operational failure in decades. as cbs's scott macfarlane reports, kimberly cheatle drew sharp criticism from both parties. >> get down, get down, get down! >> reporter: ten days after the historic failure in butler, pennsylvania, kimberly cheatle resigned as u.s. secret service director, writing to colleagues, "this incident does not define us," and that she didn't want to be a distraction. in a statement, president biden said cheatle had shown incredible integrity. >> i take full responsibility for any security lapse. >> reporter: and graphic video after the assassination attempt, agents can be seen over the bloodied body. investigators also sought access to a drone. more revelations today. the pennsylvania state police commissioner revealed to local police snipers were posted with a view of the roof used by the gunman but left their posts to search for him, and that a local officer came face-to-face with

the shooter minutes before the gunman pulled the trigger. >> it was minutes, it was a very short period of time. >> but not seconds? >> i would say minutes. >> reporter: despite that encounter and rally goers pointing out thomas crooks on the roof, he was still able to open fire, killing one and wounding three others, including former president donald trump, who posted on social media, "the biden-harris administration did not properly protect me." for john abel, who was seated steps from trump and the podium, the resignation was warranted. >> i think it is kind of a slap in the face for everybody who was there that their safety was put on the line from their lack of competence. >> reporter: an acting secret service director ron rowe will now lead the agency. in the meantime, the u.s. house has launched a bipartisan task force to investigate the assassination attempt, with the secret service's own review, norah, due in about two months. >> norah: scott macfarlane, thank you very much. and there is this news today. disgraced new jersey senator bob menendez is set to
