>> the white house says president biden is outraged over an israeli airstrike that killed seven aid workers. but the administration is not easing up on its support for israel. this comes up for a palestinian american doctor walked out of a meeting at the white house in protest that dr. is here in studio ready to chat about it in just moments. plus wrestling q efforts are underway right now after a deadly earthquake in taiwan, toppling buildings and triggering landslides with the latest on the ongoing aftershocks and the race to help those still trapped under rubble. >> and for the first time the fda has cleared a digital treatment for depression. the new app that you need a prescription to download are following these major developing stories and many more all coming in right here to cnn news central >> anger >> is rowing >> across the world after an israeli airstrike killed seven
12:03 pm
aid workers for world central kitchen. but even as president biden expressed his outrage over the incident the white house is reaffirming its support for israel's war against hamas. and the frustration is also mounting in israel as president, rather prime minister benjamin netanyahu faces pressure for failing to reach a deal to get those hostages held in gaza released. today, members, family members of the hostages stormed the gallery of the canal acid the israeli parliament watch this >> i have an acronym. have an covered idea >> musters. have demanded for weeks now demonstrators are also calling for netanyahu's resignation. let's get
12:04 pm
perspective from the white house now would cnn's mj lee, mj, let's start with your new reporting. the white house. again, reaffirming support for israel, even amid backlash over the deadly strike on these aid workers what is the white house saying >> yeah, boris, i can tell you that the deaths of the seven aid workers has touched off a fury and indignation here at the white house. and you certainly sense that from the statement that we got from president biden last night where he said that he was outraged and heartbroken and a senior administration officials saying that frustration here at the white house has really reached a new levels. what was striking about that statement from the president last night was how explicitly he blamed israel for the incident he said israel has simply not done enough to protect civilians and tech aid workers. and he said, what happened to these world central kitchen aid workers simply should not happen. now, despite the president being completely furious over this incident, the white house is
12:05 pm
making clear today that the us is stance and supporting israel and its current war against hamas is not changing to listen >> i can say that nothing has changed and we've been clear about that since certainly since yesterday. we are going to continue to have those really tough conversations right important to have conversations about how israel, israel moves four four with their operation. we want to make sure that civilians are kept safe, but are protected. and also folks who are providing humanitarian aid the us of course, has been urging israel to change its conduct for months sometimes to little effect. i should also note the white house says it is waiting for the results of that investigation that israel is conducting into that incident. president says that he wants to see accountability, but it's unclear right now what accountability there would look like
12:06 pm
>> and mj, what is the white house saying about this meeting where a palestinian american doctor walked out, dr. ahmad is here with us and we're going to chat with him in a moment, but what is the white house saying about that meeting >> yeah. you know, this was initially supposed to be an iftar dinner hosted by the white house, a breaking of the ramadan fast, but it was revised to a meeting when participants raised concerns kearns about this idea of having a celebratory meal, given the situation in gaza and how many people there are starving right now. and among the participants, of course, is dr. ahmad, who traveled to gaza earlier this year. he stood up and left the meeting as a sign of protests. and one of the things that he says he did was hand the present does it in a letter from an eight-year-old girl who has been orphaned and rafah basically begging the president to stop israel from going in obviously just one more vivid example of the furious backlash of the president continues to confront that as war rages on, boras.
12:07 pm
>> mj lee life for us from the white house, mj. thank you so much. brianna as we just heard, tensions high at the white house last night as the president met with a small group of muslim community leaders and then included emergency medicine physician >> dr. thaer, ahmad in that group before he walked out in protest. he recently traveled to gaza as part of a delegation of doctors from the ngo medglobal, where he was treating patients in i'll nasser hospital in khan yunis this and he's here with us in studio now doctor. thank you so much for taking the time to join us. can you just tell us about this meeting at the white house, how it started and why you decided to walk out? yeah. i mean, my understanding was that in lieu of the traditional annual white house of thought that given the circumstances and the humanitarian catastrophe in gaza so that it was going to be some sort of like working dinner and it would be the first time that the president would hear from people who were actually on the ground in gaza since october 7, but over the course of a week
12:08 pm
many things developed and changed and really kind of soured people's intentions and expectations for the meeting. and so it was a few members from the muslim american community, people who had also been on the ground in gaza, ready to give their firsthand eyewitness testimony. and myself, the only palestinian american tell me how the meeting went. it starts to it how does it start? yeah. i mean we had showed up into at the white house and the president walks in, he shakes everybody's hand. he sits down and then he says a few words. he just says, this is a listening session. we're here to here you guys out did we know a little bit about what's going on on the ground and we're working very hard on it. there's no mention of gaza or palestine of the world central kitchen people who have been killed but the starvation or the famine and the north, or the looming invasion, mlfa, of which were all very concerned about in trying to communicate a sense of urgency >> you began, he asked you to speak >> yes. tell me about that and tell me what you said. yeah. i mean, he looked >> at me, said we'll start with
12:09 pm
you i let them know that i'm going to pass a palestinian american er doctor that i was in gaza in khan yunis in january at nasser hospital. and what i saw a khan yunis was devastating. i mean, that hospital was the largest remaining hospital in gaza at the time. it was overwhelmed with people who had been injured, in airstrikes. and there was 10,000 people sheltering in and around the hospital you cannot walk in that hospital without seeing families sheltering in the hallways. and i said, all of those people after that hospital is surrounded and shut and rated, they went to refer hundreds of thousands of people went out. our faq to make a 1.71, 0.8 million people there anybody that's communicating with you and telling you that there's a strategic or tactical way to do this, to do a military operation of alpha is lying to you. i can tell you that firsthand, i was in rafah. our units. it would be a bloodbath. it would be a massacre. do there is no way to do this in the war has to stop. there has to be a ceasefire >> when, when did you walk out and what did you say to him? >> right? as soon as i had
12:10 pm
finished >> communicating the urgency with respect to what's going on, rafah, i looked at him, i said out of respect for the palestinian community, people who are mourning, who are grieving the tremendous loss of life and gaza. i have to get up and leave this meeting reading. but before i do that, i want to give you this letter from an eight-year-old, had d she's an orphan in gaza in mfa staying in a camp and she wrote him a letter and i wanted to give it to you and i gave him a picture of her as well as the letter and the letter basically begged president biden to do whatever he could to make sure that there was no invasion of rafah by the israelis and what are these adu he looked at the picture and then he said he understood. and then i walked out >> did you know you were going to do that ahead of time you know, initially when i had heard that, i would have an opportunity going to be along with other medical professionals to brief the president about the situation on the ground. i thought this was my chance to be able to at least communicate what i saw and to elevate the stories of the people that i interact but over the course of a week, all of these different stories broke. there's more fighter jets being sold, 2000 pound bombs being transferred. there's john kirby just
12:11 pm
tenaciously and in passionately defending the israeli military after what happened to world central kitchen convoy. for me, it really was upsetting in me, but i wanted to make sure that i was calm. i was collected, i was able to deliver a message, but to also walk away from an administration that i feel has walked away from my people. >> what's your biggest concern right now with the war? >> i mean, it's gone on for six months. there has been no reprieve, and we're talking about a famine in an invasion in the south. i cannot imagine what how it looks like, but gaza is hell on earth. and i need to whatever we can do. everybody in our community is doing whatever they can to shout at the top of their lungs that there cannot be an invasion. there needs to be a ceasefire, but it's not just about the bombs, not dropping not just about planes not flying overhead. it's about getting food and water and medicine inside and getting people who need to be medically evacuated, the more than 9,000 of them getting them out and getting them some treatment. i mean, all of gaza has been
12:12 pm
devastated and it's basically unlivable at this point that needs to change. >> as you said, it's, it's hell on earth, but you're going back. yeah. >> i have to go go i think many palestinian americans like myself, we have this tremendous amount of survivor's guilt were living here. we're reliving very comfortably in people who look like us, who could have easily, we could have easily been in their position are suffering immensely at the very minimum, we need to be over there and do what we can. i'm a physician. i should go and practice medicine over there. other people who can help in other ways sure. that they get the opportunity they would do something similar >> dr. thaer, we really appreciate your time. thank you for being with us. >> thank you. >> boris >> very powerful conversation meantime, president biden's handling of israel and the war in gaza has cost them tens of thousands of votes across democratic primaries. a new poll shows it's just one of several key issues that voters trust donald trump on more than biden. the wall street journal's new survey drills down on the biden trump rematch across seven battleground states and finds a race that's
12:13 pm
too close to call. trump leads in two of those states. and in the remaining five, according to cnn's methodology, there is no clear leader. let's have cnn's senior data reporter, harry enten, break down the numbers. harry, walk us through your big takeaways as you mentioned, if you drill down on those individual states, you may find that in most of them there's no clear leader, but i want to sort of take a 35,000 foot view. >> and sort of aggregate those states together because there you do have a clear leader, you have donald trump, who's ahead of joe biden, 47% to 44%. and given the large sample size, it is clear enough that donald trump is in fact leading and across those seven battleground states, when you aggregate them together. now, if you add in third-party candidates, look what you see here is look at this rfk is getting 11% of the vote. that's a fairly significant chunk for a third party candidate that helped through the election, which of course we're still months away from that helped or the election would be the strongest third-party performance since ross perot back in the 1996 and 1992 elections. but again, what
12:14 pm
you see here is that donald trump is still ahead of joe biden, even when you add kennedy in that three-point advantage. now, if you are in fact to drill down into those individual states that you hinted at, right? arizona, georgia, michigan, north carolina, and nevada, pennsylvania, wisconsin, the only two states when you include the third party candidates where we can say there's one candidate clearly ahead is arizona and north carolina where we have that eight point advantage. so again, it is a race that's close, but one at this point in which donald trump does in fact seem to have the advantage when you look at the overarching picture, boris so here i'm going to go. we alluded to the findings on middle-east policy. i'm wondering which candidate do people prefer on the issues that were pulled that stood out to you? >> yeah. >> so you mentioned the middle east policy. you mentioned the israel-hamas war, but take a look here, trust and more, biden versus trump margin across again, the seven battleground states. economy inflation, donald trump by 20 immigration, border security, donald trump by 20, israel-hamas war donald trump
12:15 pm
by 14, russia, ukraine, more, donald trump by nine, protecting democracy, something that joe biden is put at the forefront of his campaign. and democrats have in general, to close within the margin of error, joe biden just prefer, by one point, but again within the margin of error the only issue that joe biden leads donald trump on is abortion 12 point advantage. but again, that is not at this particular point where this campaign is being fought on. it's much more being fought along the lines of immigration, inflation, and immigration and border security economy inflation, excuse me, an immigration and the border security where donald trump has clear advantages. and then i'll just sort of take a big step out. is the us on the right track and this is in presidential election years. now how in those key seven swing states, only 25% of americans say the country is on the right track. if you look at the average when president luiz, presidential election since 1980, 25%, which kind of matches up with the overarching picture that is donald trump does seem to be ahead in this race, at least looking at the seven swing states and aggregate boris and hairy,
12:16 pm
looking at the electoral college map, what is this snapshot tell us >> yet what is this snapshot tell us, you know, if you just take a look at all of the polling based on recent polling and pass resolve what do we see? we see donald trump with 283 electoral votes. joe biden with 2205 the only states when you aggregate while the post together, not just this wall street journal poll, but all the polls that seem at this point too close to call are wisconsin and pennsylvania, michigan, where of course there was that big uncommitted vote during the primary. does in fact seem to be leaning donald trump, as well as nevada state that joe biden won last time around arizona and georgia. so the fact that at this point it looks to be advantaged trump, boris harry enten, thanks so much for digging into those numbers for us >> my pleasure. >> and talk now with cnn political commentators and the co-host of hot mics from left to right, maria cardona and alice stewart with us here. we have a lot to talk about, and there are obviously a lot of numbers of those poles, but i do want to start on what could be a very important one for
12:17 pm
president biden. and former president trump, which is as harry referenced 14 points ahead on handling of the israel-gaza war. clearly, when it comes to trump, that would mean how, how someone and i guess with think that he would handle handle it, obviously. but that's a pretty big number. you just heard dr. thaer, who was in this white house meeting and i wonder what you think about what this is saying about the situation for biden and trump? >> look, i think clearly former president trump has been really steadfast in his support for israel. he did so as president. now we're looking at a situation where after since the invasion by hamas, israel has every right to defend itself. it's certainly should, but you guys did an excellent interview with general wesley clark in the last laugh asked our where he talked about, look israel should defend itself. it has every right to do so, but they need to be extremely careful and calculated with how they go about protecting their territory and engaging with them hamas and being very mindful of the loss of life in the collateral damage, which is
12:18 pm
what we're seeing and what the interview with the doctor talks so much about. that is where we're seeing a lot of couldn't concern and frustration with israel. and obviously compassion for the palestinian americans, the muslim americans, arab americans and the way that president biden biden has handled it is getting a lot of backlash from those people because of the casualties in this war. >> so what i would say is in doing the comparison because it is insane to me that people would think that somebody like donald trump would handle this more better, especially in light of the challenges that president biden is facing with the muslim community. with progressives because it is very personal as we heard, what the doctor was saying and what i would remind people is that donald trump would instill a muslim ban donald trump has gop extremist maga leaders who have said and donald trump has not disavowed those comments that we should handle gaza the way that we handled hiroshima and
12:19 pm
nagasaki, that is not something that we need right now, right. and so i think that president biden is doing the best he can, right now in an incredibly emotional, hard issue with the humanity, right in the middle of it, because he is saying to people like dr. ahmed, which was just so crushing what he was saying that we need to continue to listen to you. we want to continue to listen to you and your community. he they need to continue to have those conversations. and while right now, the stance hasn't really changed. i think there probably is going to come a time where the images and the actions of israel, if netanyahu does not change course, is going to be unsustainable. >> the top two issues as harry laid out, immigration and the economy, both of them showing that those polled trust donald
12:20 pm
trump to handle those issues more specifically on other question of immigration. donald trump medea has leaned into the fear mongering yesterday at his appearance. he he talked about biden's border bloodbath. he's alluded to undocumented migrants as animals and not human. there are anecdotal cases were undocumented committed migrants have committed horrible crimes and atrocities. but if you look at the data broadly, yeah undocumented migrants do not commit violent crime. >> a >> more frequent clip than citizens. it's not based in reality and yet he's winning by 20 points on the issue of immigration while yeah. >> i think this is an issue of voter amnesia. and what the biden campaign and democrats, and frankly common sense republicans and suburban voters there's who saw what donald trump was doing on immigration when he instituted the horrendous family separation policy. and by the way, we're about to come on six years of the anniversary of that. and donald trump is having an event tomorrow with the architects of
12:21 pm
that horrific policy. he has said that he is very possibly going to implement that policy again, we need to remind the country of that. we need to remind the country that this is somebody who has said that the blood of your family, my family your family poisons the blood of the country. >> and >> that is not something that, that equals an american value. i know that alice does not agree with that either. we need to remind people of that and biden and democrats need to also come forward with real solutions, which is something that republicans have also denied the country. it, let me ask you this suit. she says amnesia. i wonder if you agree with that, but also it is biden's job to help people remember that that he needs to do and i wonder alice, what you think about what i'm doing. i think he should help people remember which he will not do about republicans are doing so they will help people remember that under the trump administration, we didn't have
12:22 pm
a massive influx of migrants into this country as we're having now in the fact that it wasn't a great, let's just say, maybe it's what the hands of others it out when you don't biden comes into office and reverses trump policies were remain in mexico and emphasis on building the wall. then we have a massive influx of of migrants into this country and they're being sent to other cities. now we have democratic mayors and governors pleading with the federal government. please do something to stop the influx migrants into this country. so it would be incumbent upon republicans to remind people that things were much more secure under the trump administration with regard to the border situation. that's why we're seeing battleground states and state after state, they trust president trump, former president trump, to address the border crisis biden i think it's amnesia and i think it's critical to remind people that we had a border security bill ready to go and who said no, donald trump told me his people in congress, who had negotiated
12:23 pm
this bill, who would have given billions to security measures at the border, who would have given billions to these city is that your republican governors have carelessly sent migrants two, and republicans have said no, they don't want to solve this issue. they want to keep weaponizing it. democrats want to secure the border. they want to give a lot more money for smart border security. they also want to open up more legal pathways for dreamers and for the immigrants who have been here for a very long time, who by the way, economists have said have injected seven trillion dollars into our economy. we should >> point out that was not in the senate deal though, a pathway to citizenship. alice, i'm going to get yelled at by your producers, but we'll get you real quickly biden administration has had three years to address this and to blame this on republicans at this point is just not accurate because his policies led us to the situation and given the fact that we have we have now that these migrants are being sent to other cities we're seeing that the border crisis
12:24 pm
every state is a border state, every city is a border city. and in cannot just put all all of the blame and emphasis on these border states. they handle this >> names of issues and maignan's crisis, not in immigration. >> now, what i got doughnut alice stewart. >> thanks. the conversation. still plenty more news to come on. cnn news central happening right now, there's an urgent search for survivors continuing after a devastating earthquake hundreds still trapped under the rubble >> and eggs could soon get more expensive after another outbreak of bird flu, we have those stores there are many more coming up on cnn news central carbon, a cnn film, sunday, april 21, nine at planet fitness, you can get energy out >> hello, can we interest you in upgrading to muscle elite for just 99, 99. >> this is better get energized with the membership that fits your budget. joint planet fitness today, the length

12:30 pm
earthquake that struck taiwan. now, what taiwanese authorities have told us is that about hundred and 37 people are still trapped in hualien county, which is located on the east coast of the island they're saying that most of these people are in a mining area. and in order to get them out of the taiwanese defense ministry has deployed military troops we're working with local governments to get those people to safety, to get those people out now, just for some context, we know that collin county is a very popular tourist destination. it's a part of taiwan that many people visit both domestic and international tourists. and it's known for these beautiful hiking trails in a very famous gorge and in fact, of the nine people who died, three of them were actually hiking around the gorge when rocks fell and killed them. now, also, taiwanese authorities are warning residents that we could see aftershocks continued to shake the island in the next several days. there are warning
12:31 pm
that the aftershocks could have a magnitude of 6.5 to 7.0, which is very, very significant and not just because of the very traumatic experience of feeling. the shaking just continue throughout the days, throughout the night but also because of the potential damage that we could still see this effect taiwan and also potentially hamper the rescue operations that are still underway. briana yeah, it's really unbelievable the pictures that we're getting out of taiwan hanako montgomery, thank you for that report. >> still ahead. iran vowing revenge. is it accuses israel of a deadly airstrike on its its consulate in syria. how us officials are responding check your >> nothing. >> the space shuttle accidents usually not one thing. it's a series of events is that part of the wing coming apart >> space shuttle columbia? and be out of final flight, premieres sunday at nine on cnn
