Fees, no contracts and Hello Barbara sorry, i was muted thats amazing. I know rights barbara not Manu Raju On Capitol Hill and this is cnn back on the trail. Donald trump is taking his Campaign Talents to, to swing states. As President Biden says, his sights on a state of democrats havent one in years it was gazas largest and most advanced hospital with emergency Intensive Care, pediatric, and other departments. And now it has been reduced to rubble. The World Health Organization is hoping to send a team to the alshifa hospital to see if anything can be done to help and this is the last two survivors of the Tulsa Race Massacre. Say they have one chance to get back the opportunities that were stolen from them. Today, the women both 109 years old, go before the oklahoma Supreme Court. Any final fight for reparations . Were following these major developing stories and many more all coming in, right here to Cnn News Central fresh off some appearances in court. Donald trump is back on the Campaign Trail Today for the first time in weeks is going to be speaking in a crucial swing state of michigan and just a few minutes and then later today hes on to wisconsin two key swing states that he won in 2016 and lost in 2020 as part of President Bidens socalled blue wall, he plans to hammer biden on his border policies today. But if he strays from that topic and starts complaining about his legal cases hell have to tread carefully. Theres an expanded gag order on him now, the result of his online tirade targeting the judge overseeing his Manhattan Criminal Case and the judges daughter cnns alayna treene, his life for us in grand rapids, michigan where trump is set to speak shortly. Alaimo, what should we expect from his remarks . Right . Well, you mentioned a couple of important things. Boris, one is that this is really donald trump kicking off his general Election Campaign in earnest. We havent seen much of him since his super tuesday when a couple of weeks ago while at the same time, we saw really an uptick of political activity from president joe biden. He also recently visited michigan and wisconsin and we know that donald trump is very eager to try and have him when these states in november after losing them to biden in 2020. But one thing will also be watching for is what he will say if he will say anything at all really about that expanded gag order. We know that hes really towed to the line today when attacking the judge over the latest issuance of this gag order where he cannot go after the judges family or Family Members of the court, as well as family of the manhattan district attorney. Its also comes a day after donald trump posted the 100 and 75, 175,000,000 bond in his new york civil fraud trial. That deadline was on thursday, so were really seeing that mix of the Campaign Trail and his legal issues play out. This week. But as or what we should expect from the former president and his messaging today, its only going to be two main topics. Im talking hold from his campaign that hope be focusing on in both topics that helped him succeed in both michigan and wisconsin back in 2016. And those center on immigration and the border, even though both michigan and wisconsin are more than 1,000 miles away from the usmexico border. A lot of republicans in these states do care about the issue. Another big part of this though, is going to be talking about a Violent Crimes committed by undocumented immigrants in this state, as well as in wisconsin. It as part of that, the former president actually invited the family of a woman named ruby garcia. She was recently killed in michigan by an undocumented immigrant that police say it was as part of a domestic dispute, and weve seen this kind of playbook with donald trump before. He tries to pull on these different stories recently he did that with laken riley, another woman who was killed by a suspected undocumented immigrant to try and prove his point that biden is not handling of the southern border correctly. So a lot of big themes that well be watching out for today as well as some of that inflammatory rhetoric that weve seen donald trump used in the past part of his remarks here in michigan are going to focus on what the campaign is calling bidens border bloodbath, referencing that controversial term that the former president used a couple of weeks ago when talking about the Auto Industry as well as the country tree if biden were to win in november. So again, well be tracking whether he continues that inflammatory rhetoric today alayna treene, life force in grand rapids, we know youll keep an eye on that for us, Briana Turning now to florida, a onetime Battleground State that some democrats now think is back in play partly because of how the reversal of roe v he wade has shaped and reshaped the Political Landscape this week, the Florida Supreme Court handed down to rulings. One, lets the states Law Banning Abortion at six weeks go into effect next month. The other will allow voters to weigh in directly on the issue this fall by voting on a constitutional amendment that would protect Abortion Access lets get you to florida with cnns carlos suarez. Carlos, whats in this Ballot Measure for starters you have rionda so that Ballot Amendment could and thats a big question. It could expand access to reproductive care come november. Its going to need more than a majority of the support. Were talking about 60 of voters would need to approve it right now, or Abortion Providers tell me that their focus is on this sixweek ban which takes effect in 30 days. Planned parenthood of South Florida told us that they are making more Appointments Available to women and that theyre working with outofstate providers once this band kicks in florida, is about to join several other states across the south that severely restrict, if not ban, abortions about 84,000 women. And last year received a Reproductive Services in florida with a number of women coming to florida from states with some of these restrictions. Now, the secretary of health and Human Services this is javier becerra. He was in South Florida for an event on Reproductive Health care and he talked to about this ruling and context of dobbs as well as ivf care in alabama and medication abortion services. He said in part, quote, no woman in america should live and medical apartheid now, it has become clear that roe versus wade was more than just about abortion. It should now be clear that dobbs was more than just abortion as for this Ballot Amendment, the Florida Supreme Court approved the wording of this constitutional a Ballot Amendment that would protect the right to an abortion florida. Now this ballot, again would prohibit any type of restriction when it comes to abortion at the point before viability, which is around the 24 to 28 weeks of pregnancy. But again, it briana, 60 of voters in florida would have to sign off on this Ballot Amendment in order for it to approve to be approved rather. So you can expect that both of these rulings, no doubt will play out politically, come november, considering that democrats they expect to campaign on this issue in hopes of putting florida in play. Here in a moment, were going to be speaking to the democratic Minority Leader in Florida State house. But what a republicans saying about this upcoming ballot . Fight well, weve already heard from some of republican officials here in florida that tried essentially to apply to the courts decision in saying that the state constitutions, rights of privacy doesnt include the right to an abortion, but when it comes to this Ballot Amendment, some officials have said they are going to camp pain against this. One of the top officials here, the state speaker of the house, said they plan to turn out an effort against this Ballot Amendment. So it puts republicans in a bit of a tough spot going into november, considering some of the polling on this issue, when it comes to support for some of these reproductive rates all right. Carlos suarez, thank you for that report or lets discuss further with a state lawmaker democrat Ventures Driscoll joins us now. Shes the Minority Leader in the Florida House of representatives. A liter driscoll. Thank you so much for being with us first, i want to get your Immediate Reaction to the state Supreme Court triggering this ban on abortions after six weeks what do you think it means for women in florida well, women in florida are like me. Were now living in a time where we may have had fewer rights than our mothers had when they were of childbearing age. And a sixweek ban is as close as you can get to an outright ban. Most of them in one i know that theyre pregnant at six weeks. And so Florida Republicans took this too far. The good news is that the people are paying attention and that most americans and most floridians believe in safe access to legal abortions. And so we do have that on our side as we head to the ballot box in november representative, i just want to commend you for keeping your focus. Is that train horn was sounding in the background. I hope that was a train that was quite loud. I appreciate your focus. I do want to ask you about remember i want to ask you about amendment four, so that the state Supreme Court made, this decision allowing the band move forward, but they also approved the wording of this proposed constitutional amendment that will appear on novembers ballot. And if voters approve it, it would enshrine Abortion Rights in the state constitution. You do need the support of at least 60 of voters in the Sunshine State for it to pass how confident are you that thatll happen im very confident that we can do it. And i think Everyone Needs to remember to take a deep breath because weve done this before. In 2018, we also had an initiative. It was amendment four. It was to restore Voting Rights to returning citizens who were formerly convicted felons and that is a measure that passed easily with over 60 . In fact, it got more votes in favor of it than anybody else did on the ballot. More even than ron desantis or any other candidates. I think that we have to remember that floridians know how to do this. Floridians value, there freedom, and they will show up at the ballot this november to protect that there is some debate about the language and amendment four, and i want to put that back on the screen because theres a key portion. It says quote, no law shall prohibit penalize, delay or restrict abortion before viability or when necessary to protect the Patients Health that that question of viability. There are a lot of different ways that that could be interpreted. Polls show that thats where the core of the Abortion Debate is, right . Im wondering if you wish the language of amendment for was more precise, perhaps specifically laying out a timetable well, i think we have to remember that the core issue actually is whether or not there should be Government Interference in these immensely personal decisions of heart and home. These are personal medical decisions. So freedom is an american value. Its true, but floridians in particular, value, there freedom we actually have a right to privacy that is enshrined in our constitution, our state constitution. Now we know what the Florida Supreme Court just didnt kind of brush that aside and i think put maybe their personal opinions ahead of actually what the law would command them to do. But Floridians Value freedom. And so thats really the question for voters. Do we think that politician should be looking . For the shoulders of women while they are in the exam room . Or do we think that these immensely personal decision should be left between women, their family, and their doctors. And i think most floridians would agree with me. Its the latter. We need to keep government out. We lead to leave this to science. We need to leave this to women and we need to leave this to the professionals who are the doctors . Polling shows that a large majority, at least according to the university of north florida, would support passing amendment for the white house now thinks that having this on the ballot makes this Sunshine State winnable for them . Yet, you did allude to Governor Desantis in the last election in the midterms, he led the effort on these abortion restrictions. Any won reelection by nearly 20 percentage points. That was about a yearandahalf ago. Do you agree with the white house that florida is winnable for democrats . Oh florida is absolutely winnable for democrats. I often say that were not a red state. We are red performing state. We are maga captured state, but were not a red state. So theres something thats happened though, since the 2022 election, which is that florida is facing one of the worst Affordability Crises in the country. We have the highest Property Insurance rates in the country and this is after the republicans gave a 3,000,000,000 bailout to the insurance industry, but provided no relief for homeowners. So people are mad and theyre feeling it in a way that they werent in 2022, florida is simply becoming too expensive for many floridians so when you take that issue and couple it with the issue of abortion, which may have been intimated on the ballot in 2022, but it wasnt their expressly. Now we actually have a window. Now theres actually some daylight, i think where we can, as democrats and people really who care about this issue, you dont have to be a democrat to care about this issue. I should be buffalos, i talk about that. People who care about these personal freedoms can make their voices heard at the ballot. And i think that is whats going to make the difference in 2024 Florida House Minority Leader for interests driscoll. We appreciate you joining us today. Look forward to having you back as this issue plays out. Thank you.

Now today, get your Viewing Glasses ready. It flips across America Live Monday at one today, israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu is vowing an investigation after acknowledging the idf unintentionally struck innocent people people world central kitchen says an israeli airstrike killed at least seven of its aid workers on monday, despite the fact that they were in a clearly marked vehicle convoy that was coordinated with the Israel Defense forces today, the us joined a growing list of foreign nations calling for accountability. And moments ago, the white house gave an update on its expectations for israel moving forward we, want us to hang some sort of condition over their neck and what im telling you is that we continue to work with the israelis to make sure that they are as precise as cape as they can be. And that more aid is getting in and were going to continue to to take that approach this latest attack occurred after a twoweek israeli siege on Gazas Alshifa hospital, the director of that hospital saying it is now permanently out of service with us now, as the cofounder of gaza medic voices dr. Tanya hajhassan. Shes also a pediatric Intensive Care doctor after with Doctors Without Borders and tanya, just to put this into perspective, ill shifa had 750 beds. There were 26 operating rooms. They serve 250,000 people annually according to the hospital director, can you tell us any specifics . That you know about the condition of the hospital after the siege and what this is going to mean to the people of gaza yeah, thank you i dont know far beyond what i think everybody accessing media and social media, know at this moment, because communications are so difficult in the north, because International Journalists were long essentially removed from the majority of the gaza strip as part of a strategy and these are all atrocities that are committing, being committed in the dark that local journalists have been targeted the same way Health Care Workers have been targeted. So unfortunately, what is coming out of alshifa hospital at the moment is apocalyptic photos and videos of evidence to tuition that i visited that i loved that was really a source of pride for gazans. It was a very wellfunctioning large quaternary hospital that provided the majority of Subspecialty Services for the gaza strip and the gazas largest Trauma Center as well. Its also over 70 years old. Was built during the british mandate. And it translates al shifa means healing or to heal. So its the house of healing and it was exactly that one of my colleagues described it as the Beating Heart of gazas Health Care System. And to see it, now in ruins. Burned bombs and thats just the infrastructure, the photos and footage and testimonies coming out of people cuffed and their hands and legs bound. People dismembered role rolled over by bulldozers and all that atrocities committed in the hospital including pointblank executions of tens of people, if not more, ive seen numbers as high as 300 people in the hospital is its apocalyptic. I keep trying to wake myself up from this nightmare because we have been screaming and when i say we its myself, its all the humanitarian humanitarians that have been going in and out of the gaza strip organizations speaking on behalf of their entire organization, organizations with decades of experience in humanitarian medicine in war zone, we have all been shouting since week one, this is beyond anything weve seen elsewhere. And now we have the icj ruling you were just there. I do want to note cnn and were doing our best to report out of gaza. But obviously it is very difficult. As you mentioned there or not many journalist, theyre very restricted in the north. So were hearing very different accounts from the two sides. Obviously of what happened. And we are doing our best to try to confirm some information so that we can get a very clear picture. But can you just put into perspective for us the pictures are its so horrible. Obviously, this is not a functioning hospital. We can see why its permanently out of service. What do people do, dr. If they need medical treatment, where are they going to go . So i was in gaza. I returned about one week ago. I was there with a different charity called medical aid for palestinians. We were based in dated but its similar area where the the worlds kitchen, massacre happens with the aid workers. You mentioned prior to me coming on the program when they were killed by israeli bombardment that that was the area that i was in. Its also the hospital whose courtyard was bombed two days ago. It was a right next to the tenths where the journalists sit. Its where a few more more tense with internally displaced people were. This is not a military base. I was there for two weeks. It is a small hospital that is trying to function to take the place of these larger hospitals, the two largest hospitals in gaza and shifa and and lawsuit medical complex, both of whom van me ben besieged, bombed, and essentially plea put out of service. So a smaller hospital like an oxide, is trying to compensate and it cant because even if it gazas entire Health Care System was functioning right now, every single hospital, it could not cope with the mass casualties that are coming in as a consequence of what seems on the ground as a Health Care Provider working in an Emergency Department, i can tell you what the people coming into the Emergency Department where civilians they were families, children, elderly, women entire families coming in sometimes a Single Member of the family coming in looking desperately for the rest of the family that was in his home and hour ago when his home was bombed and later finding out that they were all taken, half of the families still trapped under the rubble, the rest were taken directly to the morgue because they were dead on arrival. And then maybe one child thats still alive and being resuscitated, but badly means this was a very common theme, unfortunately, and i can tell you a story after story, buits hard to recount these individual stories. Ill be totally honest with you. Its, its hard to recount these individual stories without kingown in tears because every single one of them is a tragedy. Its easier to talk about this in terms of numbers and bigger concepts. But when you come down to it, these are individual families. I mean, imagined for one seconds and god forbid, you would never be playing this situation. But imagined for one second, if you are the only surviving member of your family and you saw your knee, dont have children, maybe have children, but you saw children and you or your family or your extended family dead means or dying and in pain while theyre dying for no reason, for no crime the evidence on the ground for those of us who have been in gaza, is that this is a war on civilians. Its indiscriminate its targeting civilians in multiple ways, including starvation, including direct bombardment, including point black executions. Weve had testimony after testimony. Weve seen Video Footage of it and i dont know how what atrocity we have to reach before global powers step in and say enough violence this is not something that humanitarians can fix. This is an elimination of human life. Theres no doctor of that can reverse that process. Yeah, were and weve seen the scale of it. It is its appalling and weve covered the individual stories as you said, its not just numbers it is individual stories. And you dont need to have children to look at what were seeing in these pictures and just be speechless as you hear these stories and see these faces. Dr. Hajhassan, unfortunately, we have to leave it there. Thank you. So much for being with us thank you boris across israel protesters are growing louder. Those frustrated by the war are now grappling with how to make their voices heard. Cnns melissa bell has more in israel two, there are those who object to their governments handling of the war in gaza among them, ben, a rod, who has an 18yearold is due to enlist this week for his mandatory Military Service instead, he tells the crowd hes choosing to go to jail we caught up with him and tel aviv on his very last day of freedom. I dont refuse because im afraid of being hurt or killed in military action. I have a very, very deep discussed of the things that im seeing happening things he says that israeli media doesnt dwell on for that he seeks out on International Networks and online i think something that really broke my heart was the Flour Massacre so seeing people trample each other too get to get food i mean you just cant deny at that point that there is a famine going on and people are hungry so on monday, then well hand himself in becoming one of earlier handful of socalled refuseniks to make their decisions public since the war began in a country where military Service Marks the start of every israelis grown life aside from those exempt on religious grounds the war has made avoiding it a political act and then called the trader ive been told that i need to be deported or ive been asked why i dont just move i mean, but its not not such terrible stuff. I havent gotten that yet. Like ill get that when i go to jail yet. Ben says hes determined to give up his freedom in order to remain free of award that he simply doesnt believe in now. Its vital to overstate what a remarkable decision it is for an israeli 18yearold to decide not to serve, given the place that Military Service this has in this country, but especially at this time, i think listening to the testimonies that you were just hearing their real numbers, so you just heard from that dr. Remember that International Networks like cnn cant get into gaza, but do what they can to try and show whats happening to pilip Palestinian Civilians that hes had to seek out that information to make his decision, i think is interesting in itself, one Media Analyst pointing out that here in israel the drums of war have been beating so loudly that its been hard for his red, the israeli public to get access through it its own media, too much of whats happening two Palestinian Civilians, so remarkable story to remarkable time and bear in mind that we are now in the third day of four days of protest against this work here in jerusalem, parson briana yeah, a really fascinating perspective from that young men melissa bell, life force in jerusalem.

Com the lead with jake tapper today it four and cnn gop infighting could intensify as house Speaker Mike Johnson goes on the offensive to save his job amid a threat from fellow republican Marjorie Taylor greene, who is vowing to trigger a vote to remove move him if he brings a ukraine aid bill to the floor, she has already filed a motion to vacate and in the meantime, the speaker is working on a path to pass a bill that would provide aid to ukraine. Cnn Congressional Correspondent lauren fox is with us on this story. Lauren, whats the speaker doing here . Whats his plan to try to . Keep his job yeah over the course of the last week and a half as lawmakers have been a wave for their for their april race as what youve started to see, speaker Johnson Doing is really keeping his options open. He is having conversations with members. He is trying to understand the best path forward, but understandably, hes in this very difficult position of trying to thread the needle in a way in which he brings ukraine aid to the floor of the house, but he doesnt trigger this effort to remove him from office. And that is proving to be very difficult and conversations ive had over the course of the last two days. Its become clear that johnson has not decided brianna on what the best strategy is at this current moment, weve heard him floating a couple of ideas, perhaps using this as a way to give a loan to ukraine that they could pay back another option that he has floated is doing some kind of lendlease program. Hes floating a lot of ideas right now to see an understanding what might be able to get the kind of traction where he can actually put this on the floor. Meanwhile, democrats are giving him room to maneuver, making sure that he does have some semblance of options because they want to see ukraine aid. This has been a big priority for the white house. The senate has already passed their bill, but johnson making it clear in the interviews over the last several days that whatever he puts on the floor is not going to be that Senate Passed bill. Instead, he is looking at a series of other potential options, brianna, but hes still has not made a final decision. All right. Well wait for that. Lauren fox. Thank you.

You may be entitled to a portion of tha money all when 8085920400. Thats when 8085920400 right now, oral arguments are underway in oklahoma is the last two survivors of the Tulsa Race Massacre fight for reparations. The 1921 attack was one of the deadliest on Black Americans in the the survivors previously lost one legal battle in a lower court. And now the States High Court is considering this case Cnns Omar Jimenez is following this story for us. Omar tell us more about whats at stake here. Yeah, i mean, look, these are the final survivors of the 1921 Tulsa Race Massacre at this point. And theyve been locked in what is now a years Long Court Battle to essentially seek reparations. Now, as you mentioned, a lower court initially dismissed. Well, they initially allowed it to go forward and then they grant entered a motion to dismiss later on. So then it was dismissed. Then they appeal to the oklahoma Supreme Court. That appeal was essentially granted to provide this opportunity for oral arguments. And thats what we are hearing today. That hearing is underway. These survivors are making their case, which i just want to point out for context here. The Supreme Court is not deciding whether they get reparations or not. They are deciding whether these survivors essentially have the right to go to trial. Because even if the state Supreme Court grants them insides with them here, it only just goes back down to the Lower District Court and then they proceed toward that trial process. So that gives you an idea of how much longer and how much more convoluted in some senses, this process could be and to state the obvious, these survivors or 109 years old at time, is really of the essence for them. If they plan to be here to see any form of resolution in this case, and i asked one of these survivors because i sat down with one of them 109 yearold viola ford fletcher, about why she keeps showing back up to court because shes had to come in time and time again over the past years, even on her birthday, last year, she was sitting in court as part of these as part of these case proceedings, take a listen to some of what she told me we should get justice to be fair. I think the courts should feel the same way and that is as simple as it gets there. Now, i do want to say that the city of tulsa, among others, which has been on the other side of this, has argued that simple we being connected to a historical event doesnt give someone unlimited rights to seek compensation related to that event. And that is likely what were going to hear a little bit from them as the Supreme Court hearing continues. And as were continuing to monitor it. All right. Well look to see what develops their omar.

Theres a total Solar Eclipse coming and its just six days away on monday, millions of you, were going to have a clear view of the moon completely blocking the surface of the sun. Imagine that, yeah, inperson. Okay, so this celestial event is expected to be just a huge boost for tourism in what is called this area. That is the path of totality. It stretches across pause parts of the us, mexico, and canada quite a lot of very Populated Areas as well. So how should you prepare because you should cnns Kristin Fisher is here . To tell us all about it. Its about the glasses, right its about the glasses. And i think by now, most people should know where these, not these, right . I mean, you need to wear the proper Eclipse Glasses. I think most people know that by now, but the problem that the American Astronomical Society is finding is that now theres quite a few counterfeits out there and so it can be tough to know if youre trying to purchase some Eclipse Glasses online now, which ones are real and which ones arent . You can go to reputable websites like cnn. Com, nasa or places like that. But theres also an athome test that you can do and basically its quite simple. You just hold them over your eyes and you dont want to see anything. I mean, try it out. I do now bought these. I thought i could wear them to look cool, wear them and bump into walls what i really now, if you look more in a studio, right . So one right here are you able to see like those very, very bright lights you might be able to see through it. He make them look good. Boris right . Youalls oneliner are going to be so so good by the time you get to monday. But the bottom line is, when youre at home, you want to hold them up to a light. You should not see anything. Then if you pass that test, bring them outside and try looking at the sun for just a split second. And test it out that way before the eclipse. Heres go ahead. I was going to say theres also another way which if you didnt by your glasses and time like i didnt last time i did that diy. Yeah. Pin point cameras sort of thing. We have pictures of it. This is 2021 that thats my steps on teddy. Hes looking at it. He was super into it even at a yearandahalf look with my cousin in law, we were in texas. It was like 60 look at you got 17. You yeah. Yeah. Thats right. 2017. We look so nerdy theory as voiding it. Thats what you can see its not as cool as the glasses though. Thats the thing, but that is better than nothing. Theres a cool way to look at an eclipse, right . Unless, and heres the big catch. Unless youre in that moment of totality. And with this eclipse, its going to be about four minutes long. And during those four minutes when the moon totally obscures the sun, you can actually look right at it without those years im sure if i have a rapid damage, kristen brown, bright eyes, and that is the danger here wow im done.
