Criminal indictment looms. And have you seen this video . The violent free for all on the waterfront. Police are expected to reveal more about this Alabama Dock Brawl just hours from now. A lot to get to. Good morning and welcome to our viewers in the u. S. And around the world. Im rahel solomon. People from new york to mississippi are cleaning up after a deadly storm hit the east coast with heavy rain, thunder and raging winds up to 70 miles per hour. The high winds and falling trees smashed buildings and tore the roofs off of some homes. Two young men were killed. A 28 was hit by lightning in a parking lot and in anderson, South Carolina, a 15yearold died when a falling tree hit him and he is got out of his car. Neighbors say the power of the storm at that moment was just breathtaking. The rain was literally sideways. Trees, Limbs Ohitting your trucs and you are driving. One of the worst ive seen. If it wasnt a tornado, it had to be awfully close. I just feel for them. They are wonderful neighbors. I just cant imagine going through what they are going through. Also 1600 flights were canceled in the u. S. Monday and there are almost 400,000 customers without power right now on the east coast. Lets bring in derek van dam, he is live in the cnn weather center. This storm really seemed to come out of nowhere, developed quickly and with surprising power. Yeah, Hurricane Force gusts in fact some reports over 75mileperhour. But what is most astounding to me, we have over 600 reports of Severe Weather including one confirmed tornado with the number likely to go up. But look at that, over 500 reports of wind damage and wind reports. Mine this, is blanketing much of the eastern sea board, some of the heaviest Populated Areas of the United States. And so anywhere from atlanta to the Nations Capital and outside new york city. Threat diminishins the east coast. In arkansas there is a severe Thunderstorm Watch until about 8 00 a. M. Central time. And by the way, some hefty storms moving through Oklahoma City as we speak. So the threat today largely across the plains. And the deep south, this is the remnants of the cold front. Jackson, mississippi to tallahassee, florida. Isolated damaging wind gusts, large hail and cant rule out a possibility of a tornado as well. Several flareups of thunderstorms expected over the eastern half of the country. We also have a flash flood threat. Remember, go back a couple of weeks and we had flooding across much of northern new england. Now we get additional rain on top of very saturated soils. So the potential there exists for some flooding. Weather Prediction Center has a level three of four, that is a moderate risk and that includes much of New Hampshire and central sections of maine. That slight risk extends all the way to boston by the way. And National Weather service picking up on that, flash flood watches in effect through the day today as a few showers and thunderstorms from the cold front that brought Severe Weather continues to move through. So very tumultuous past 24 hours. If it hasnt been the rain, it has been the heat. Feels like it has been an intense summer. Derek van dam, thank you. More republicans are being called in by prosecutors who are building evidence into two separate investigations in to donald trump. Ber Bernard Kerik oand his lawyers speaking monday. And jeff duncan received a subpoena to testify before the Fulton County grand jury investigating trumps alleged Election Interference. All of this a sign that trumps legal troubles appear to be growing deeper by the day. Paula reid has more. Reporter in washington, cnn reporting exclusively that former new York Police Commissioner bernie kerik talked to Special Counsel investigators. Mostly about all the efforts in between the election and january 6 of what the Giuliani Team is doing. Reporter the meeting is the first Known Investigative Step since the Special Counsels office filed charges against former President Trump last week. Keriks attorney Tim Parlatore saying he doesnt think that Rudy Giuliani will be indicted. Not a chance. Reporter also trumps lawyers arguing in a new court filing that they shouldnt be restricted from talking publicly about some evidence in the Election Interference probe. The press and the American People in a Campaign Season have a right to know what the evidence is in this case. Reporter while socalled protective orders arent unusual, prosecutors say that it is especially important in this case because of trumps public statements. And how they could have a Chilling Effect like this recent social media post that read if you go after me, im coming after you. Trump also lashing out specifically at his former Vice President who could become a witness at trial. Calling him delusional and not a very good person. Pence saying that he would testify if asked. People can be confident that well obey the law, well respond to the call of the law if it comes. And well just tell the truth. Reporter trump even attacking jack smith at a fundraiser in South Carolina just days after his second arrest and arraignment in Federal Court on the case brought by the Special Counsel. Jack smith is a deranged human being. Reporter trumps legal team testing out their defense in the court of Public Opinion including arguing that what trump did was covered by the first amendment. There was no fraudulent conspiracy. That is part of the really different defense. Biden said in November 2022 that he wanted to see President Trump prosecuted and taken out of this race. Reporter but the defenses were quickly rebutted by some of trumps former top allies. Former attorney general bill barr drawing a line between speech and conspiracy. He can say whatever he wants. He can even lie. But that does not protect you from entering into a conspiracy. All conspiracies involve speech. Reporter the trump team also bracing for a fourth indictment in as many months. This time coming out of Fulton County, georgia. Yeah, i think that we can expect it. Reporter where the former Lieutenant Governor just got subpoenaed in that grand jury investigation. And District Attorney fani willis is getting ready to announce possible charges against trump for his actions in georgia around the 2020 election. I took an oath and that oath requires that i follow the law and that if someone broke the law in Fulton County, that i have a duty to prosecute and that is what i plan to do. Reporter cnn observing additional security for judge tanya chutkan, she is the judge overseeing the trump prosecution related to january 6 here in washington, d. C. She is also the judge who will rule on that protective order and it is unclear when she will make that decision. Paula reid, cnn, washington. Now to the Missile Strikes in ukraine. Seven people were killed overnight, at least 81 others injured, this is after two russian strikes on the city. Clare sebastian is live with the latest. It is midday now in that region. What more are Officials Saying . Reporter yeah, a second day now rescue efforts are ongoing. Were told that they have to take a pause overnight because of the threat of shelling. But the scale of the destruction is extreme. Some 2,000 windows were blown out, some 12 multistory buildings affected including a hotel and restaurant that were popular were told with journalists who had visited the area. This was a double Missile Attack using what ukrainian Officials Say were russian missiles. It happened around 30 to 40 minutes apart in the early evening of monday. And the reason why this kind of attack is so destructive is because you have one missile that strikes and then rescuers, Police Officers move in and the second missile hits and you can see from the injury toll were getting exactly what is happens. They say some 31 Police Officer, accept rescuer, four service men were among the injured, one high ranking individual Emergency Service also among the seven killed. So in this dounetsk region, thi has been on the edge of this conflict really for the past decade when russian backed separatists were fighting in that region. But i think that even for a town like this, this was these are startling image as. This was a new level of violence. As. This was a new level of violence. S. This was a new level of violence. And im looking at the video. And even a year into the war, images are startling to say the least. Thank you, clare. Back here in the u. S. , now a video that you may have seen on social media because this story is everywhere. Investigators in montgomery, alabama are expected to reveal more this afternoon about a brawl that broke out on a Riverfront Dock on saturday. So video of the fight here show as a black man identified as a Cruise Boat Crew member attacked by a group of white men who witnesses say were on a private pontoon boat. Ryan young picks up the story from there. Reporter an altercation on a Montgomery Alabama boat dock over the weekend between a group of white boaters and a black employee escalated in to a massive brawl that resulted in multiple arrest warrants. Montgomery mayor steven reed is calling for justice to be served for attacking a man who was doing his job. This is an unfortunate incident. Something that were investigating. Well continue to go through the process before we take any additional steps. Reporter it all began when the black employ ewas trying to clear the dock space with the riverside Cruise Harriet 2 normally docks. The cruiser was about to return to shore and needed its space to dock. You know, just doing his job. And for some reason, they didnt like it. They didnt want to move the boat. And decided to get physical with him. Reporter you can see in the video the black employee on the dock arguing with one of the men from the pontoon boat. And then another shirtless white man charging at the employee and hitting him in the face. Soon after that, you can see several others join in on the attack of the dock employee. In some of the video, with millions of views, people on the boat can be heard yelling for someone to help the employee. At one point you can see a young man who that wills jums that ju off the Boat Swimming to help the man. And that is the reason why when they got off the boat, they came right to that smaller boat. Reporter and that is when more Fighting Ensues turning into an allout brawl that included several people getting hit over the head with a folding chair. Soon after officers started trying to take control, handcuffing people in the fight. They were the anning antagon. Arrest them. When things happen, people of color are the first to be put in handcuffs. All ri reporter many questions remain about the melee. Were fully engaged and doing all of our due diligent to find out exactly what took place. Reporter weve learned from police that there are warrants issued and were told there will be a tuesday News Conference around 2 00 and we should learn more about this.

It is becoming increasingly likely that former President Trump will not participate in the first republican president ial debate that takes place a few weeks from now. Ron desantis will be there who is currently trailing trump by a wide margin in the polls. Desantis will join over 2024 hopefuls as they look to try to make a dent in trumps lead. Brian todd has more. Reporter Florida Governor ron desantis saying directly what his chief rival refuses to, that trump lost the 2020 election. Of course he lost. Joe biden is the president. Reporter Desantis Making The Case in a new interview that if the 2024 election is about trump and his legal battles, republicans will lose. That is not a pathway for success for the republican party. I think a lot of our voters understand that. Reporter s if a similar line of attack former new Jersey Governor Chris Christie has been using. I want Republican Voters to know this is a preview of the election coming up if donald trump is the nominee. He will be talking about donald trump rather than joe biden and what we should be focused on is joe biden and his record and that is why he cannot be the nominee. Reporter many of the republican candidates spent the weekend in iowa courting voters. Iowa is an important state. Not because of the caucuses, that is an important thing, but for our national security. Food security is national security. You supply us with our food, you supply us with ethanol. Im asking for your support in the january caucuses because i can pledge to you this. I will get the job done, i will not let you down. Reporter but trump continues to go after desantis. Desantis has fallen dramatically. Reporter and most pointedly mike pence writing on truth social, quote, hes delusional and now he wants to show hes a tough guy. Pences has been sharpening his criticism of trump following the former president s third indictment saying that trump put himself over the constitution and anyone who does that should not be president. President trump was wrong. He was wrong then, he is wrong now. I had no right to overturn the election. And more and more americans are coming up to me every day and recognizing that. Reporter despite all of this, former President Trump continues to lead by a wide margin in polling across this gop president ial primary. And his opponents are still looking for a way to really break through with voters. So many of them are looking to the first debate scheduled for about 2 1 2 weeks from now. And President Trump has not indicated whether he will or wont be on that stage. But what we do know is that so many of those rivals to trump are hoping that will be a big moment for them. Jessica dean, cnn, washington. Meantime President Biden lanltd landed in arizona on monday kicking off a trip that includes visits to mexico and utah. He is looking to highlight his legislative accomplishments ahead of the one Year Anniversary of the Inflation Reduction Act. And one word you should expect to hear, bidenomics. I said i didnt name it bidenomics, i didnt realize the economists and Wall Street Journal did, but i think that it is a plan that im happy to call bidenomics. Im not here to declare victory on the economy. We have more work to. We have a plan for turning things around. Bidenomics is just another way of saying restoring the american dream. Bidenomics is working. Last month we created 187,000 new jobs. Lets bring in White House Correspondent for bloomberg news. Thanks for waking up to be with us. Certainly the administration wants biden omics to become catchy, but do people know what it is . Very few are familiar with the term bidenomics, but among those who are, about half associate the term with Tax Increases. And that may be confusing for some because the administration has not imposed any Tax Increases on individuals. And in fact biden has promised not to raise taxes for people making less than 400,000 a year. But that is likely because of republican rhetoric around the term and that shows how much the Biden Administration has lost control of the narrative. They have tried to tie it to so many of bidens priorities including clean energy, manufacturing and lower cost of drugs. And people are confused. So the Administration Needs to reign it in if they want it to be effective. One thing weve heard it tied with is the labor market and i havent heard anyone questioning the strength of the labor market, the elephant in the room how far when you are talking about the economy is inflation. And higher interest rates. So i wonder how risky is it to lean into the economy when the it is cooling but still higher than most would like . It is a balance of the administration. They are constantly touting things like jobs, that the 13 million jobs added to the economy since biden has taken off. They are touting things like the Inflation Reduction Act as you mentioned there. Sfruk. This Manufacturing Boom that were seeing. But Biden Caveats that by saying there is still more to be done. So people are not seeing some of the positive economic data, they are still feeling stress when it comes to rent and grocery money and buying goods. So they have to strike a balance here. And i should say that tomorrow well get the cpi which will give us a sense of what prices are doing right now. And youve told us that age seems to be the number one factor talking to democratic voters, President Bidens age. How does he combat those concerns . Age is certainly a concern even among those who approve of the president. They are expressed about his fitness for office, whether he will be able to continue to serve in this role for another four years. He will be 86 at the end of the second fterm. Weve seen biden turn it into a joke. There is practically no speech that you could hear any longer where he does not let everyone know that he knows this is a concern and that he is also in on the joke. Just yesterday we saw the world series championships at the white house, we saw the new ton astros and biden made a joke referring to himself and comparing himself to dusty baker there, 74yearold manager. And saying people counted him out and he knows something a little bit about that. Well see if that resonates with voters. Kayla, great to see you. Thank you. Time for quick hits across america.

Official has mets to push for a diplomatic resolution to the countrys coup. The Acting Deputy Secretary Of State said they had a frank conversation but made no progress. Stephanie busari is joining us from nigeria. Sounds like talks with v. Hit a bit of a standstill. What is the late snes. Reporter well, the situation is a little unclear. But the rhetoric has dialed down. This is something that people in the region do not want. Northern part of nigeria has steamily close ties with niger. And governors of those states have been very clear that they dont want any Military Action that would imperil or impact that relationship. And so the community of West African States is holding fresh talks on thursday. And as you say, hvictoria was i niger. And she met some of the Military Leaders. She also didnt see the deposed president Mohamed Bazoum because his whereabouts are unknown. And those are key things that she wanted to achieve in that visit. And she admitted that the talks were tense because these Military Leaders are not ready to restore constitutional order. That is what the International Community wants. That is what ecowas wants. And they have allies in mali and burkina faso, neighbors countries that themselves have taken power forcefully. And also russia is in the sidelines. Wagner mercenary Military Group promises maybe to deploy into the region. And so people here, somen a lists saying that the military is emboldenefact there has been taken and they are saying do your worst. And weve spoken to the Department Of State Secretary spokesman and they said that the u. S. Is pushing for diplomacy. He was speaking to reporters. Take a listen to what he had to say. Window of opportunity is still open. We believe president bazoum should be allowed to resume his duties today, tomorrow, anytime in the near future. Reporter and so these talks are still ongoing. Everything hinges on the thursday discussions with ecowas. Where will they go, what will be done, will they take planned Military Action as promised or will the diplomacy continues. And a lot of people watching to see what ultimately comes of that. Would ybustephanie busari, than. New images show kim jungun touring the countrys armed factories and even firing a weapon. And u. S. Officials remain concerned about potential arm sales between russia and north korea as moscow pushes for even closer ties to pyongyang. Brian todd reports. Reporter from north koreas dictator, more flexing of military muscle, sporting a white tunic and hat of a revolutionary, kim jungun mounted machine g. Gun guns par tour of munitions factories. And they say one was a large caliber complex. And that he presented directions and guidance for production. Kim jungun unlike his father or grandfather has had far less time to develop a cultive personality. So he really is in a sense creating that cultive personality in office. So he has to therefore live up to the images of the strong veer ral leader. Reporter and u. S. Officials are increasingly concerned that kims regime may sell weapons to russia for use in ukraine. Our information indicates that russia is seeking to increase Military Corporation with the dprk such as sale of munitions to russia. Reporter john skirby says a recent visit was made to convince kim to sell weapons to russia. So they have the right cal caliber. And they have modern tanks. Which means that they have 125 millimeter tank shells. Reporter another Bargaining Chip . U. S. Army private travis king who bolted across the border into north korea last month. U. S. Defense officials tell cnn the Biden Administration is debating whether to designate king as a prisoner of war. P. O. W. Status could give king better protection under the geneva convention. Kings family recently said they dont know any more than the public does about his condition or where he is being held. He is not the type to just disappear. So that is why i feel like the story is deeper than that. Reporter Officials Say so far the north koreans have not provided any detail on kings whereabouts or his condition. And analysts say the north koreans almost certainly have interrogated him. Perhaps he doesnt know much, but they will ask questions about everything. Chain of command and control, names, training process, access to bases. Any memories that he might have of his Military Life and his civilian life. Reporter and it is also possible that the north koreans may eventually use travis king in propaganda featuring him in antiamerican movies or videos. Kings family says they are working with bill richardsons Nonprofit Organization to try to bring him home. Brian todd, cnn, washington. And quick hits away the globe, iran warns that it will seize u.

It has been a historically hot summer with some cities in the south and west facing record long bouts of high heat. Around 50 million are under a Heat Advisory or warning and high temperatures are also a factor in the recent surge in gas prices. But how big a factor are they really . Joining us to discuss is chief oil analyst. Great to have you. Thanks for having me. And so lets start there. How much of a factor is the heat in terms of higher gas prices . You have to think of a refinery this way these things run on very high heat. But when the ambient temperature around it is, okay, yeah, they can operate for a day or two when it is 100 degrees or so, but when it stretches a week, five, ten days where it is 100 degrees or no, that will have an impact. So i just came up with this an nam gi, think about being a Major League Baseball pitcher. It is a lot easier to throw 100 pitches when it is 80 degrees versus 100 degrees. And so refineries arent necessarily breaking down, about they are not operating at 100 capacity. They have to cropdrop down to 8 85 . Weve seen it happen. For example a couple years ago up in seattle area, there was really high temperatures an refineries were running in to struggles there. You think about the weather up there, they are not used to 100 degree temperatures. So can i you quantify it . I think right now were actually plateauing. Th there is a lot talk about supply and demand. Russia taking some barrels off. What is happening . Saudi arabia announced that they would cut a Million Barrels a day of production. They started that in july. They announced last week that they would carry that over through september. So it is really starting to have an impact on Global Markets and the amount of crude oil supply. Right now oil prices are around 81 in the u. S. So i think that 80 to 85 is kind of a sweet spot for producers. Sure gas prices have gone up, but were still 50 cents below where we were this time last year. Maybe not quite that much. But we have seen disinflation if you will when it comes to Gasoline Prices. What about what is ahead . We dont have a lot of time, but what is your forecast. Fall coming, a cooler blend. Do you see relief . Absolutely. Last 100 days of the year typically bring the cheapest Gasoline Prices of the year. There have been a whirl wind of events. But keep an eye on hurricane activity. That is always the wild card that you have to watch out for starting in late august into september. And when the Hurricane Season finally ends at the end of the october. So watch Hurricane Season but all Things Considered we should hopefully be coming off yeah, when it comes to a hurricane, between corpus christi, texas and mississippi, anything else is more of a demand destroyer. Great to have you. And coming up on cnn this morning, a legal battle over evidence in Donald Trumps january 6 case. And next here, what happened when the astros went to the white house .

Here is another sign that we are a long way away from the pandemic days of 2020 because now even zoom is asking its workers to get back to the office. Here is tom foreman. Reporter oh, the irony. The company that taught us how to work from home now saying that it wants its workers in the office at least two days out of every week. Several others have done the same thing. Google, salesforce and amazon and the u. S. Government are saying we like the idea of people being there facetoface, we like the synergy, the productivity that comes out of it. But a lot of workers are not so convinced, especially younger workers say they dont like commuting because of the gas and time. It costs money. And they dont like paying extra child care. 14 think that. 13 say that they are better able to focus. What is the difference here in what they want . Generally employers want 1. 6 days at home per week. That is weird. We dont take 0. 6 days. So they say two days at home is enough and workers say three days at home. Workers have a strong hand to play here because so Many Employers are still trying to find enough people and interestingly, Working From Home One study found workers equate that to an 8 higher salary if they have the freedom to work from home a lot.
