After President Biden ended his re-election bid, he endorsed Vice President Kamala Harris. CNBC’s Eamon Javers reports on VP Harris’s spike in donations over the weekend, as well as the road toward the Democratic National Convention in August.

Venture capitalist Vinod Khosla is an independent who hosted a Biden fundraiser in May; today, he’s calling for an open convention, but will support VP Harris if she wins the nomination.
