Cnn has learned that Fani Willis In Atlanta will spend two days in front of a grand jury next week presenting her case against the former president. Sources tell cnn that willis could seek several indictments in a sweeping racketeering case. It would cast trump and a number of associates as operating a criminal enterprise aimed at subverting the 2020 president ial election in georgia. Meantime trumps lawyers will have their first hearing before the judge overseeing the federal january 6 prosecution. Paula reid has more on that. Reporter judge Tanya Chutkan has scheduled a hearing for friday a arguments from both attorneys for former President Trump and the Special Counsel about the possible rules for exactly how evidence especially sensitive evidence will be handled in this case. The Special Counsel has been lobbying for a broad Protective Order to limit the ability the former president has to share Sensitive Information that is turned over in this case. But trumps lawyers have argued for something more narrow, something that only covers the most Sensitive Information. They argue that that would be more in line with the Protective Orders in other january 6 cases. Trump lawyers also asked that the hearing be scheduled text week as they have another hearing in the other Special Counsel investigation down in florida on thursday. But judge chutkan appears based on her Scheduling Orders so far to be keen to move this along as quickly as possible. So shes scheduled this for hearing on friday, both sides will have the opportunity to present arguments and this will be their first time appearing before the judge who will continue to oversee the case until what is expected to be a tr hearing. Paula reid, cnn, washington. Meantime donald trump was on the Campaign Trail in New Hampshire blasting the prosecutions against him as politically motivated. Fprofaniy for good measure. Kri Kristen Holmes is traveling with the president. Reporter he attacked the Special Counsel. They call him deranged jack smith. Reporter days after being arraigned on allegations he tried to overturn the 2020 election despite knowing that he lost. There was never a second of any day that i didnt believe that that election was rigged. It was a rigged election. Reporter trump slammed efforts from prosecutors to limit what evidence could be publicly shared in trumps case. I will talk about it, i will. They are not taking away my First Amendment right. Are. Reporter as he faces increasing legal jeopardy, trump remains the gop frontrunner claiming the charges would behinder his bid for the white house. Sorry, i wont be able to go to iowa or New Hampshire today because im sitting in a courtroom on bullshit. Reporter some supporters of the former president say that they arent fazed by his legal issues. I think every time hes indicted, he gets stronger and stronger. I feel we have a two Tiered System and we need to go back to a one Tiered System. Reporter trump rivals also hit the trail in the to gain traction with gop voters. As his Campaign Seeks a reboot, ron desantis replaced his campaign manager, part of a continued shakeup of his team. And with allege more than two weeks until the first gop debate in milwaukee, former Vice President mike pence has qualified to takt decided if he will participate in the debate and has been polling his allies and supporters. Should i do the debate . Well, maybe well do something else. You know, some people say yes, but they hate to say it because it doesnt make sense. Reporter former President Trump also went after Fulton County georgia district attorne. He said that he doesa perfect p call. But again, he has told allies that they are expecting a fourth indictment. Now, trump continues to say that this is helping him politically, but there are several allies and advisers around him woho arent so sure what it means in the longes, cnn, New Hampshire. Now to a cris advocates in ohio last night. Voters soundly rejected a referendum to raise the threshold for amending the state kons from a simple majority to 60 . It was a republican led effort to make it harder to pass a november referendum that would protect Abortion Rights. Ohio, we did it. We did it tonight is a major victory for democracy in ohio. The majority in ohio. And the peoples power has been preserved. Coalition leaders also saying that the work to enshrine Abortion Rights in the states constitution begins today they aware that the ukrainian counteroffensive is not progressing as quickly as expected. Ukraines president on tuesday admitting that the counteroffensive has not been easy and is happening probably slower than some had hoped. John kirt it and has not given up in the face of difficulties. Nobody wants to see them struggling and gotting as well as they would like. So were all dedicated to continuing to help they will what they need. If that means more training, then more training it will be. If that means more capabilities, more capabilities it will be. Were all in this together. Clare sebastian is live for us in london. And i think these are remarkable admissions from ukraine and a major ally. What factors are being blamed for the slower progress, is it the lack of training . It is a number of factors, and this is somewhere where ukraines president zelenskyy and western officials that weve been speaking to agree it is the slowness with which they were able to start it. Remember it was called the Spring Counteroffensive and they didnt manage to really get things under way until early june. President zelenskyy has since said that is because they were waiting for stocks of weapons to arrive until they reached that sort of critical mass. It is the russian defenses because during that time russia was able to really bed in with these mine fields,s like that, made the advance on the battlefield and continues to make itit extremely difficult. And was there enough training, looking at. I think for ukraine, the issue now is time. Were talking about winter and also changing politicay saying with them, but polling that you see in terms of u. S. Public opinion is a bit more nuanced. This was a cnn poll that was surveyed more than 1,000 americans in july and it does show a bit of a shift, now the data shows that 51 of americans think that the u. S. Has done enough to help ukraine. Only 48 think that they should do more. Compare that to more than 60 in the very early days of the conflict who actually felt that the u. S. Could do more to help ukraine. So there is a shift there. That is a snapshot, but one that president zelenskyy and ukraine will be watching closely and frankly so will russia. Clare, thank you. Now to a developing story right now out of hawaii. Wildfires are burning dangerously close to homes. This video is from maui. There are also Fire Evacuation orders on the big island.

Authorities in montgomery, alabama have issued Arrest Warrants for three men in connection with that wild dock side brawl that broke out saturday. So it started when a black riverboaite boaters to move their vessel out of the riverboat spot on the dock and then they attacked him. At least one of the men is in custody. All three face assault charges. More from ryan young in montgomery. You see stuff like that on the tv, but to see it live and being a person of color, you ot ite and how wrong itn a group os and black employee that escalated in to a massive fight on a Riverside Dock in montgomery, alabama on saturday. The incident occurred after the riverboats cocaptain Damian Pickett tried to cleae d. Police chief announcing that three white men have been charged with third Degree Assault for their involvement in the incident. Were also asking for mr. Reggie green, the black male 4 seen wielding that Folding Chair to contact the Police Department for further interview. Reporter the chief also identified the other victim today, a 16yearold white male whose mother signed an Arrest Warrant on one of the individuals who attacked her son. The river cruiser idled for about 40 minutes whils e the captain was prevented from dock and first tried to contact them through the p. A. System. Cocaptain was picked up by a separate vessel and brought to the pier in an attempt to have a conversation with the private boat owners and or have the hott could dock. The confrontation ensued. Everybody was yelling. And the captain, everybody was screaming because we cant help him because he was getting stomped. Reporter police chief said at the time there is not enough evidence to meet the criteria to charge for a hate crime or inciting a riot. Knowing montgomerys history and all the civil rights things that we went through here, what that means to the nation, we were very amped up to get this right. Well continue do all that we need to do ensure that we get it right. Reporter and montgomery mayor says the investigation is not over yet. You cant allow your emotions or your initial thoughts to get out in front of what the facts tell you. So while this is an ongoing investigation, so far the fatct are separating themselves from figures. Reporter you see the Ha Harriott Ii behind me. Now there are signs added to the dock space to make sure no one parks in that space again. The real question is about the three men police want to charge with these crimes, how soon they will be all in custody. Something the community is looking forward to trying to figure out exactly what happened. Ryan young, cnn, montgomery, alabama. Time for quick hits across america. The man convicted of shooting Megan Thee Stallion in 2020 is convicted to ten years in prison. He shot her in the foot after an argument. U. S. Supreme court has these are firearms assembled at home from parts bought online without a Serial Number or background check. And police say an underwater team specializing in cold cases has found about 30 cars submerged in a South Florida lake. Multiple agencies will now be recovering and investigating those vehicles. Hard to believe but the school year is quickly approaching. For most it means class monday through friday, but more schools are switching to a four day week. According to data, more than 2100 schools and nearly 900 School Districts across 26 states have implemented that schedule. The number of schools just doubling in the past decade. Joining us to discuss is Christopher Doss from the rand corporation. Great to see you in studio. Thank you for having me. Lets talk first about School Instructio and we found that students in the four Day School Week, they took a hit to student achievement, they were performing lower in math and english language arts. Would more instruction time, would a fifth day sort of bridge that gap . Research tells us part of the reason they may be performing lower is because they are in school less time. Most School Districts try to extend the other four days but they dont extend it enough to completely make up for the time that they lose on that fifth day. And you and i were talking about this earlier in makeup. Is it similar to some of the loss when people come back from summer . It is a little different. When you think about student loss over the summer, it is because they get out of the habit of learning. Here they are in school less so they are not learning as much to begin to the cost savings but your Research Found that they are modest. Yeah, some other researchers looked at the cost savings, about 2 to 3 is what they saved on their budgets because there are a lot of fixed costs. He might run the buses one day less and save, but place. A lot of people who had dont there are in the rural districts so they serve fewer kids but they have to assupport the enti district. It is that a hard time to be an educator with the Budget Restraints and also teacher labor shortages. How much does that play into the popularity ot teachers would be more willing to either stay in the classroom or come to their districts because they only have to work four days instead of five. So are you finding this is a useful tool to Recruiting Teachers . If you have a neighboring district that is five days a and you take one of their teachers away from them because they only work four days in your district, what is to stop the five day School District from adopting it. So it might be short sighted. What did you find in terms of parents and students and also teachers . A lot of people affected by this policy, where do they stand on whether they prefer five or four days . Most people that had dont the policy really like it from families and teaches and even the school. Dont the policy really like it from families and teaches and even the school. So this is from what they think the benefits are and trying to balance it with the Student Achievements that could be seriously hurt. Did you see any differences in terms of support for this type of policy based on where people are . For example i think maybe some would appreciate having five di based on where people send their kids to school . Most of the districts that have had donted there are rural districts. And they have a lot of grandparents who take care of kids. They have a lot of parents that work off site and are away from the home for a long period othr kids and spouse to visited parent working off site. Or they cancan arrange child ca more easily. So it may work for rural communities. An inkni unknown how it would work in urban communities. And we talk so much workweek actually some Research Suggests that you dont lose productivity. So interesting to see with the four Day School Week that it appears that instruction and teaching sort of does suffer a bit. Yeah, so this is probably a story of howr this . Just ahead tens of thousand of scouts evacuated from the youth camp in south korea. And iranian women are still defiant in the face of harsher punishments and long jail terms.

New pressure on Military Coup Leaders in niger after ecowas approved fresh sanctions against the group. Coup leaders refuse to meet with ou ousted president bazoum. Options were presented and they were not willing to take that path at this time. Well keep trying. Ag again, fully lets bring in Stephanie Busari joining us live from lagos. So we know more about president bazoums condition. What do we know, where is he . Reporter we dont know exact whereabouts. We assume he is being held in the president ial palace. But cnn has seen verified text message passed to us with hisse been without electricity since august 2 and since august 4 deprived of Human Contact and as a result he is not able to have his supply of medication and food has been limited. He says that he has been reduced to eating only nonperishable foods and Everything Parerishab is finished because there is no electricity. So sounds like dire conditions that president bazoum is currently being held in. He has been in contact with the outside world. He wrote an Opinion Piece for the Washington Post for example. An has had calls with some world leaders. So it hasnt been entirely cut off, but it seems that the junta withholding them captive. He has said that he is a hostage. And seemingly in very dire conditions. And this adds to the grave frustrations from the u. S. And other partners about the juntas hardening stance and theirs fus refusal to come to the negotiating table. Here is matthew miller. I think this is unfortunate and in keeping with the message that we heard from them yesterday when acting deputy secretary newland presented options for a Negotiating Process Going Forward and they were not willing to take that path at this time. Well keep trying. Again, fully recognizing how difficult that path is. Reporter so more talks are expected. Military intervention that was threatened remains very much present, but the partners, ecowas heads of state, are preferring to go for a diplomatic option. So a lot hinges on the talks that will happen tomorrow in the capital where ecowas chiefs will gather to discuss the path Going Forward. Stephanie busari, thank you. Now to iran where women are still pushing back against bailing laws even as the government there increases punishments on those who defy the rules. This is nearly a year after mahsa aminis death killed while in custody of the morale it i police. Jomana karedsheh reports. Reporter irans brave women are fighting for their freedom with acts of defiance like this, out on the streets without the mandatory hijab. This video shows a woman harassed and called a criminal for refusing to cover up. The days of being afraid of you are over, she says. Nearly a year after the death of 22yearold mahsa amini in the custody of the socalled Morality Police, uprising sparked by her death may have been crushed by a bloody crackdown but not the will of those standing up for the most basic of rights. Countless women are choosing not to wear the hijab. And now the regime is lashing out with a campaign of Renewed Oppression announcing return of Morality Police patrols. Being a woman in iran is now harder than ever because of all the attention, our privacy and safety is a wish. You should always be worried and careful about police. This young woman were not identifying for her safety spoke to us from inside iran. The Morality Police are mostly in metro stations and sometimes on the streets. They warn you if you disobey, they take video or photos and normal people who are still on the governments side paparazzi. And authorities are also considering a draconian new bill that would make failure to comply to the dress code with harsh penalties including 5 to 10 year jail sentences and fines of more than 8,000. It may be just a warning to intimidate those who dare to dissent, but a crackdown well under way. This chilling video captures some of their terrifying tactics. Facial Recognition Technology purportedly being used to identify and threaten unveiled women. Cool ar cameras are everywhere. Thousands have had their cars confiscated and women without ava veil are being denied access to education. And there are Counseling Sessions for, quote, antisocial behavior. I couldnt believe the Mortuary Punishment until i saw some judgment papers with my own eyes. Which was washing corpses for a month. Are you and other women around you scared when you are out in public . First days were scary, but with time the courage inside everyone glows and now no one is scared. People were just waiting for a spark and that happened last year. We keep going for the kids who were murdered during the protests. Many like her say this is not just about the hijab, this is about standing up to tyranny and they are not backing down. Most people believe in freedom now because they have tasted it. We know about the punishments but we know everything has a cost and if this is the cost of freedom, were ready to pay for that. Im sure well see iran breathing again one day.

A pair of tornadoes and widespread flooding in massachusetts created havoc in multiple communities. Some areas saw up to 7 inches of rain. The wearater submerging cars. And ina maryland, downed poles had people trapped in their cars. And lets get to derek van dam. A lot of Severe Weather on the forecast. What can we expect today . Yeah, another day, another round of severe storms. This time not along the east coast but across the mid Mississippi River valley. This is where we have our greatest probability of severe storms. So if you are in places like memphis to nashville, perhaps into little rock, this is an area that has what is considered a level 3 of 5 from the storm prediction center. And look being at what they have detailed here. Large hail, damaging winds and an isolated tornado as well. Greatest possibility of tornado, right where you see this yellow shading. So southern missouri into western sections of tennessee, including the Memphis Metropolitan region has a 5 probability of tornadic activity. This on the 450e8 heels of the active weather yesterday. A couple tornadoes reported in massachusetts as well. They also saw heavy rainfall and you saw some of the video of flooding taking place in the state as well. Over half a foot of rain fell in some locations there including the lawrence region of massachusetts. So here is the latest radar. Fairly quite along the eastern seaboard. This is the round of thunderstorms that will continue to roll south and east as it does so, we currently have a Thunderstorm Watch until 6 00 a. M. Eastern time for wichita to central kansas. But it moves east through the day. Republican speaker Kevin Mccarthy has remained insistent that House Republicans are still gathering evidence and remain undecided whether to open a formal Impeachment Inquiry against President Biden. Lauren fox has more. Reporter while House Speaker Kevin Mccarthy has gone to Great Lengths to make it clear that he is not announcing just yet that House Republicans would open an Impeachment Inquiry, over the past several weeks he has tiptoed closer and closer. And behinds scenes many republicans believe this is now inevitable with one senior republican telling my colleagues, once the barn doors with open the horses are out. But one of the key concerns is whether or not House Speaker Kevin Mccarthy is going to be able to convince his conference to get behind this. That is because usually when you would open an Impeachment Inquiry you would need to have a vote of the full house of representatives. Assuming no democrats vote yes, you are going to need to make sure that republicans are largely united. And there is still some work do with some swing district republicans including don bacon who says that did the president commit high crimes and misdemeanors. The committees need to do more digging to clarify this. There is tons of smoke but lets verify what is beneath it all. And despite the fact that House Republicans for months have been investigating whether there are any direct links between hunter biden and his father, there still is no direct evidence. So one of the key questions of course from republicans is whether or not opening an Impeachment Inquiry gives them more power to get documents and witnesses or whether it may be too premature. But again, Behind The Scenes a number of republicans telling my colleagues that they now view this as a foregone conclusion that eventually and as soon as this fall there could be an announcement that an Impeachment Disting Inquiry against President Biden will move forward in the house. For cnn, im lauren fox. And there is growing backlash this israel after the countrys Finance Minister announced the freeze of around 53 million. The money had been earmarked for Arab Municipalities and educational programs. I want to bring in elliott gotkine. Is this a done deal and what were the reasons behind the freeze . Reporter first point id make is this is not necessarily a done deal despite the assertion to the contrary. It could still be overturned and challenged in the courts. There is a five year program which is designed to help residents of east jerusalem. As an aspect of that which is meant to help the residents learn hebrew to a level that would enable them to study at hebrew university. That program is worth hundreds of millions of dollars over five years. And as another part which is money destined for Arab Municipalities. This is part of a Leveling Up Program to help poorer municipalities kind of have similar resources to those which are wealthier. And after doing all the sums, they worked out that Arab Municipalities still had a shortfall, so more money was set aside, this is the 50 plus Million Dollars per year that was set aside. And what the Finance Minister is saying, it is not fair that it should go to Arab Municipalities and not poorer jewish ones and it was only set aside to placate the ram party in the previous government and finally he said this money could find its way into criminal organizations and terrorist groups and that he says is why he is doing it.
