Exciting. All right. Andy shovels. Thank you so much. Texas that could get some downpours have damaged homes swept away cars, and forced people to evacuate some areas got hit with almost two feet of rain causing widespread flooding and more rain is on the way lets bring in cnn meteorologist Allison Chinchar so theres more youre tracking yeah. Unfortunately, the last thing this this place needs is more ran, but texas is about to get a bunch of it. Take a look at the video behind me. This is from livingston, texas again, you can just see all of that widespread water flowing into homes and businesses and covering the roadways. But its not just the rain that fell onto the roads. You also have to worry about the rivers, creeks, and streams because those swell after that much rain. Take a look. Youve got 39 river gauges at Minor Flood Stage 16 at modern and about a dozen river gauges at major flood stage. And these take time. In fact, some of these have yet to even peak and likely wont for another day or two before you start to see those numbers come down, its all this rain that led to that. Take a look. This widespread totals of about six to ten inches, but there were some spots that picked up 15, 20 even as much as 23 inches of rain in just the last five days. Now we do have new Flood Watches and effect for much of this area. And its because you can start to see some of these showers beginning to fire up that section right there across east texas, right there along the Louisiana State line and some other showers across western texas. The Flood Watches do extend into oklahoma as well as portions of arkansas. We may see that shift into louisiana and some other states in the coming days as this rain begins to progress forward. But yes, take a look at all this rain. This is now what we expect just through sunday evening, you can see most of the target point is between waco, san angelo and down through san antonio where youre looking at an extra maybe four inches, even houston not expecting quite that much. But at this point, even an extra for inch or two on top of 20 really doesnt help. So its not going to take all that much if that wasnt enough, we also have the potential for severe thunderstorms and that stretches from texas all the way up through southern wisconsin, that includes chicago, st. Louis dallas, back through austin in midland very large hail damaging wind gusts and even some strong tornadoes. One thing to note, weve already had nine Straight Days of confirmed tornadoes here in the if we get another one today, that would be the 10th de straight. But look at this number over all freda, youre talking 224 total tornado ports just since april 24th. I get it. Its that time of year, but even for that, this is a bit excessive for what we would normally see in peak severe sees that as a lobby usually april, may can see a good bit of activity, but yeah, stop are ready. All right. Allison ginger. Thanks so much. All right at the top of the hour or later on this hour, i should say i top elected official in Harris County will be joining us to talk about all they are experiencing. All right. Meantime, were also following new developments in the College Campus unrest that weve seen across the country today propalestinian protesters interrupted the Commencement Ceremony at the University Of Michigan. The event was briefly delayed as police guided those demonstrating graduates away from the ceremony it is the latest weeks of unrest gripping americas colleges protesters have been calling for an end to the war in gaza and for schools to divest from israeli linked entities so far, police have arrested more than 2,100 people on about 40 University Campuses cnns whitney wild is following the new developments on the University Of Michigan campus well, it was interesting when we were here earlier app before the ceremony began, we walked around the entirety of Michigan Stadium and we did not see any indication there would be protests. We did not see protesters. We didnt see any flags. We didnt see any signs. Theres only once the ceremony got underway, about 15 minutes. And as the secretary of the navy, Carlos Del Toro spoke, Debt Protesters made their presence very clear. Ill give you just a sense of how close as protesters got to the stage. So to my left here is the stage where a long list of speakers were speaking again, this happened during the secretary of the navy speech. And then if youve come a look over my shoulder to the right here, it was right in the center of this field that michigan field, where a group of protesters between a dozen, two dozen protesters made a very vocal protest. They were chanting, they had flags. What was apparent though is Michigan State police. Were not going to allow those protesters to get any closer to the stage more than a dozen Police Officers on top of those protesters immediately, the clash was not at all violent. It was very peaceful. And after id say about five minutes, police guided those protesters outside and we heard very little after that, there were no disruptions, but the secretary baby did take a moment during his speech and its not clear if this was adlibbed or this was preplanned. But did take a moment to acknowledge the rotc members were Graduating Today and made a point of saying that their service is to protect speech. So certainly acknowledging the protests that was going on around him, even though his speech was disrupted, it was a very brief disruption. The rest of the ceremony went off smoothly. We have reached out for Michigan State police to find out if any of those students were whitney wild, cnn, hanover, michigan. Right now to the dramatic moments in Donald Trumps hush money trial, the second week of testimony wrapped up friday with hope hicks on the stand. Trumps former White House Communications director, look noticeably uncomfortable as she avoided eye contact with her former boss. And after a chemo foment in her testimony, she began crying. Cnns paula reid has details hope hicks, one of trumps former closest advisers, took the stand and the new york hush money trial. Im really nervous. She revealed to the court, as she began her testimony, she did have some warm words for her former boss us praising his ability to message. He deserves the credit for the different messages that the campaign focused on in terms of the agenda that he put forth. But she never looked at him during most of her testimony instead, focusing directly on the lawyers asking her questions. She testified at length about the impact of the access Hollywood Tape ape on the 2016 trump campaign, and how it was a crisis she was the first person and the campaign to learn of the tape what she was contacted by a reporter. I was concerned. She said she also witnessed trumps reaction to the story. Asked if he was upset. She said, yes yeah, he was she also told the jury about conversation she had with former trump fixer, Michael Cohen and trump when reports of Karen Mcdougal and Stormy Daniels first surfaced in early november 2016. Saying trump wanted to make sure that there was a denial of any kind of relationship in a significant moment for prosecutors, hicks revealed trump communicated directly to her about the payment to daniels. I only know about one instance sometime in the middle of february, mr. Trump told me about it and trump was relieved that the story did not come out before the election. It was mr. Trumps opinion that it was better to be dealing with it now and that it would have been bad to have had that story come out before the election, hicks appeared nervous throughout her appearance on the stand and after that key exchange, as Defense Attorneys were starting their crossexamination hicks broke down in tears. Sorry about that. She said as she returned to the stand, and when trumps attorneys have the chance to question her they got her to confirm that he was worried about his wife melania is reaction to some of the stories President Trump really values mrs. Trumps opinion and she doesnt weigh in all the time. But when she does, its really meaningful to him. Now the big question is who will take The Stand On Monday next week is actually the first full for day week of court that weve had since this trial got underway. But prosecutors are keeping a tightlipped on who they plan to call next. At when they plan to call the man at the center of this alleged conspiracy, Michael Cohen, paula reid, cnn, new york. All right. Thanks so much, paula. So with core two on break this weekend Candidate Trump is in florida meeting with Top Republican donors and potential running mates at the annual rncs Spring Retreat in florida cnns Alayna Treene is in palm beach for us. So alayna, what can you tell us about this gathering while fred donald trump has been trading the courtroom for florida and florida banquet halls, i should say this weekend, he is currently at a fundraiser right now at his maralago resort. And this is all happening winning during the rncs annual retreat. Now, during that retreat, that they hold every year, you always have wealthy donors and the highprofile Republican Leaders come together. But this year it was really interesting is that many of the special guests who have been attending are some of those on Donald Trumps list to be his running mate. That includes people like a senator tim scott, ohio senator j. D. Vance, north Dakota North Dakota governor doug burgum. All of them here this weekend. And at that fundraiser at maralago, right now and its been clear to me through my conversations with trumps advisers that they dont expect donald trump to announce his plans for his pick any he time soon. Instead, they say that decision will be made closer to the Republican National convention in july. But its still a really Good Opportunity for these people to be brushing shoulders with him and to be meeting with him and showing them his support okay. And then alaina, House Speaker johnson, i mean, he is their right. And given Marjorie Taylor greene it has promised to bring up a vote to oust him next week. What, are you hearing from people there . Yeah. Well his attendance here this weekend is very notable. Fred, and weve actually seen this before from speaker johnson. He actually went to maralago last month and held a joint Press Conference with the former president as a sign of solidarity. And that was also a miss other threats to his speakers gavel. And thats kinda what were youre seeing play out this weekend now, one person who also was in here is Marjorie Taylor greene, and thats something that one congressman told me is very noteworthy and luck. This all comes as donald trump behind the scenes. Im told has been frustrated by this intraparty feuding. He does not want there to be division in the party right now. He actually tapped are in the chairman, michael whatley, to go to the capital earlier this week and essentially tell the House Republican conference that he wants them to be united and that was a message he was delivering on behalf of donald trump. And so were seeing some of those dynamics on display this weekend. Fred interesting. All right, Alayna Treene in palm beach. Thanks so much. All right.

Sanjay gupta. And this is cnn all right. More now on the situation in texas where there is catastrophic flooding across five counties hardhit, Harris County is experiencing evacuations, Flooded Homes and streets, joining us right now to discuss the conditions this weekend around houston is judge lina hidalgo. She is the Chief Executive of Harris County, which includes houston, and the head of emergency management. Judge. Great to see you. So use arrived, you surveyed rather the flooding along the San Jacinto River by boat. What did you see i was there. Yesterday and it looks a meteorologists did a good job Flood Control district and predicting how bad it was going to be but i have to admit on some level, it didnt think it was going to be as bad as they predicted, which is actually a panned out. So theres particular areas right right off of the river in this rivers run south and the water was about this much below power lines. We had families that thankfully had evacuated, had heated our call. Weve not heard of any deaths are serious injuries, but we have rescued about hundred and 78 people so far, over 120 pets and theres a lot but livestock stranded out there that were working on rescuing as well. So its been really sad to see the impact of peoples livelihoods, homes, infrastructure as well as just the public infrastructure, right . Because weve seen a lot of lots of the images that weve been seeing cars that are floating or have been flooded out. People who really got caught by surprise, who were driving and didnt know what to do. What about rescues and how people were retrieved, whether it be from their homes where the Water Rushton so quickly or people who were in cotton, their vehicles we have rescued folks from both homes and vehicles and so this flood was caused on our levels that far south. The river so what we had happened over the past couple of days is heavy, heavy rains north of Harris County, which really my neighbor and counties discussion i spoke with them and with the governor and a wave of flooding that we described like that. So yesterday morning, were about here and throughout the day, that that wave really made its way to Harris County. So what wed really been been careful to send the message out, alerts to peoples phones were all over the news the radio, but even the people that had heard it some of them didnt expect to have the rise come so fast the other thing that were seeing is because the water levels continue to be really high. Theres all kinds of debris in that water. Yesterday, we saw spiders as we saw rats, a huge snake. So were really asking folks to give it a minute before they go back home. The Evacuation Order in certain areas remains an effect because theres more water coming tonight. We dont think itll be a massive problem, but it could be. And theres areas where the water hasnt yet crested about to visit some of those neighborhoods lets they wont flood as much, but its still might affect some homes, right . Because our meteorologist is is reporting that there are more systems on the way this weekend. So unclear how it might further exacerbate things, but were not talking about a dry out at all. So what kind of resources do you need from the state level . Hello, or perhaps even the federal level to assist in really the unknown whats around the corner this is not a first rodeo by any means in terms of flooding, in terms of disaster, are area has seen phi, years mostly industrial fires, floods from hurricanes. We had the winter freeze, obviously covid like everybody else. So the communities very resilient neighbors always help neighbors. And i saw that happening yesterday, but people did lose their livelihoods and so part of the challenge is what kind of resources will there be for them to rebuild we dont were going to reach the level level where will receive grants from the federal government, the level of damage. I hope that will be in a place to receive some lowinterest loans and then were building Disaster Recovery centers around the impact of neighborhoods once finally, all the weathers over part of what im about to go on a helicopter with the sheriffs office. The Director Reflect Control District to survey the damage and begin assessing where we need to put Recovery Centers with all the Resources Available for the community yesterday. I wasnt there alone. I was there County Administrator with our director of community services, really just talking to people what they need. Unfortunately, its really hard to make them hold this point, but it also helps us plan for the future and is another wakeup call in terms of the Energy Capital of the world. But were also at ground zero for the impacts of climate change. I wonder to judge now what your concerns are about communication as you get to into the helicopter and survey areas i know youre also trying to convey to people about the continued threat with more Weather Systems on the way. And at the same time, its always hard to know what kind of what kind of Flash Flooding may consequently happen, really, what might happen next . So how are you communicating the messages to people . I was just outside doing a Press Conference of course, the media and the local media has been fantastic getting the word out there and just sharing with folks. I know you want to see your home and the water may have receded a little bit, but its still quite flooded and just the danger of that deepwater yesterday, there was a couple and they wanted to go see their home and despite our warnings, they went at some point, we saw that the current was beginning to pull the woman and the man had to grab her so that she wouldnt get swept away. There are for children, its dangerous, but thats where we do what we can first responders. First responders have been amazing coordinating very well, Working Day And Night but also we need the community do their part so far thing despite those examples, the vast majority of people have done great and thats why were not seeing these severe injuries or deaths. But its still, its still really tough to lose material. Things such as your oh, indeed. All right. Well, all the vast to you and your team. So were trying to help out on awful lot of people. Judge lina hidalgo. Thank you so much. Thank you. All right.

Now to mexico and the search for a missing american and two australian brothers authorities there now confirm three bodies were found on a cliff friday, near where the trio of surfers went missing. But a forensic exam is now underway to identify the remains, were also learning police discovered a burnedout truck that the Three Friends were driving. The brothers pictured here, were on a surfing trip with their friend near and sonata, journalists were going to have much more on that story straight ahead all right. I believe are journalists, Stefano Pozzebon is with this now with more on this mystery, this investigation, what are you learning . Yes. Sorry, a little bit koco International Coal is unfortunately, we dont have a definitely give answer yet coming out to all the ensenada defending that we are hearing from those people who are there in Baja California is that these are really primed to gower. So fredricka, as the investigators are trying to find a dna match on the bodies that were recovered that yesterday in the early hours on friday, in a clay for the location of santo tomas that is about 50 miles south of the urban center for all then we know that the families are both the australian surfers and trevor, The American Jewry who are trying to reach so now either as soon as possible to assist the searcher and to provide any help they can get. They can they can provide especially with those dna match shes the Attorney General of baja, california, the state where sonata is located. There has spoken to local media saying that unfortunately, they believer that those bodies could be a match plots that until there is a definitely did answer from the forensic scientists that they wont make any definitely statement. And so we can imagine the anxiety, the moments that these families are going for it or trying to travel from all across the world in this case, because the two Australian Brothers Elite were from perth in western australia, trying to come as soon as possible to Northern Mexico, just as a thought, Northern Mexico remains a very popular destination for tourists, especially backer california because of the Seaside Culture some of the best beaches in the Pacific Ocean see tens of millions of tourists every i think thats almost 1. 4 million visited the stator in december alone last year. But there is the Security Crisis going on all around mexico, Northern Mexico is not immune from that. And in some cases, there might be spillover of violence even though most of the days tourist and foreign travelers are sheltered from that. But again, frantic hours in ensenada, Northern Mexico s the forensic dominators are trying to find a dna match it on three bodies that were recovered yesterday morning for grigor cell sad or let us know when you learn more, Stefano Pozzebon thank you so much at least nine people, including two children, were killed when israeli airstrikes hit residential buildings in gaza earlier today, thats according to Gaza Civil Defense officials, they say one strike hit a home in northern gaza, another was on a building in an area east of raffa, a city where more than 1 million palestinian tab and sheltering Israel Defense forces said the strikes were aimed at dismantling hamas capabilities in the area. The strikes comments hamas negotiators arrived in egypt for new talks and a possible ceasefire in gaza, us and israeli officials are saying progress is being made, but any deal finalized using a Ceasefire Framework could take several more days to put together as anger over the gaza war grows on College Campuses across the us, a new challenge for universities disruptions of Commencement Ceremonies at the University Of Michigan propalestinian protesters briefly interrupted graduation events. It happened during the speech delivered by the us secretary of navy. Police quickly got demonstrators away from the event University Officials across the country have been bracing for protests as commencements begin following weeks of demonstrations on friday, education secretary Miguel Cardona condemned a porins, incidents of Antisemitism Saying in a letter to University Officials, im quoting now, i am particularly disturbed by the sharp rise in reports of antisemitism targeting jewish students on some College Campuses, no students should have have to hide symbols of their faith or ancestry for fear of harassment or violence. We take these reports very seriously and will investigate determination aggressively unquote joining us now, the founder and Executive Director of stop antisemitism laura erez. Laura, good to see you. What what is your response to that statement coming from . The secretary thanks for having me with you this afternoon were extremely happy to see secretary per dont have such a strong stance in this horrifying twoweek cycle. The targeting of jewish students and faculty on College Campuses from coast to coast and everything in between. And we expect him to follow through with that statement. We hope this isnt just fluff. We want to see these title six complaints be thoroughly investigated and and action filled. Steps. Follow after that not all the demonstrations were targeting jewish students, but im wondering if you can give us some examples of the types of displays or acts of antisemitism that your group was able to identify. And are you saying it was during some of the demonstrations we probably witness some of the most chilling and horrific sentiment on College Campuses from ucla to nyu, to the new school in manhattan to columbia, where it was very reminiscent of 1938 University Of Berlin hatefilled speech. And you are correct where it wasnt just targeting jewish students and faculty. They were also targeting the United States as a whole we heard death to israel death to america. George washington and university. We saw a student not allowed to be two, not allowed to walk on campus at ucla we saw another student in African American man who was with his young daughter be barred from campus. Also a ucla by these protesters. We when you take a piece peak across the coaston the east coast, we have witnesses from Tufts University contacting stuff, antisemitism, stating theyre unable to study for finals because at 11 30 at night, when they open their window, all day here is chance for more violence against jews and globalize the intifada and for the removal of this only jewish nation in the entire world. So we can imagine what stressors these young adults are under right now as a child, you fled a jewish persecution in the soviet union to come to the United States what do you think as you see, what is taking place across College Campuses many demonstrators say they are there because they want the war to end you just gave us some examples that you believe also demonstrate an antisemitism, but what do you think about the collection of College Students and others who have tried to express themselves on these College Campuses the way in which they have in the past couple of weeks i think its extremely striking and quite shocking that were not seeing for the call of the return of five us americans, five us fellow citizens, being held in gaza right now by Hamas Terrorists were not seeing calls on hamas to lay down their arms and stop terrorizing not only israelis, but their own fellow palestinians who are living in a horrid conditions because of this. War that they initiated after the ten, seven massacre. So i have to tell you personally and professionally the type of hatred were seeing on College Campuses, again, is reminiscent Pre Holocaust and holocaust. And during the soviet soviet era, as you had mentioned, my family and i had immigrated to the United States from the soviet union when i was a small child, we had fled political persecution terrific antisemitism and its startling that that pattern is now being seen and shown in the United States and im. Wondering what, your view is on what you want to see in what universities are College Campuses do differently as a result of what has happened, because ive talked to a lot of student protesters, demonstrators two, and they say their motivation has been to end the war, to try to impress on whether it be colleges or universities to divest or even get the attention of the administration to change its position on how the war in gaza is transpiring. So what in your view, do you want colleges and universities to do as a result of seeing dozens, if not Hundreds And Thousands of young people who have been demonstrating so again, thank god in the United States were able to assemble and we have the right to free speech however, were not void of following the rules and procedures that are put forth on where we were want to speak and dependent on call on which college in which university. If youre not following the policies and procedures and rules that are put in place. You are not above those rules as anyone else. So if you want to protest within the rules and guidelines by all means, if youre not calling for the violence of others, we have no issue without the problem is thats not what were seeing. Were seeing students at George Washington university after being told to leave, they refuse. We see outside agitators join in and calling on the death of jews, the death of america, marrow america being a a Terrorist State while taking advantage of us laws protesting. We see at nyu again at columbia back to ucla the same things. The universities are not enforcing their rules. So again, if they were given a doover, our biggest recommendation is to follow your own rules and guidelines as antonym this in the bud all right. Laura reys well leave it there for now.

In a historic move this week, the Biden Administration moved to reclassify marijuana as a lowerrisk substance. Its part of a larger effort to acknowledge the drugs medical benefits, which well have a massive, massive implications for cannabisrelated research for more on the impact im joined now by math to shwetak. Am i saying that right . And matthew, i hope so Executive Director of the Marijuana Policy project the leading cannabis policy Reform Organization in the all right. So what does this mean to reclassify marijuana . It means that our federal government is finally more in line with the will of the people. For many years now, a majority of americans have supported access to canvas specifically for medical use. And over half the population now supports recreational legalization as well. By moving to schedule three. Hopefully this will free up some barriers to research into the medical potential cannabis. It will also help Canvas Businesses that are providing medicine to patients and operating in states all across the country so you said it will change the way in which its researched. I mean, what, what are the obstacles now based on its classification, was this . Currently to schedule one drug which means its viewed equally as heroin and ecstasy when it comes to its medical potential and its capacity for drug abuse, which of course is ridiculous. And now by moving it to schedule three, the federal government has acknowledging that theres greater medical potential and lower potential for abuse its still unclear exactly how the rescheduling is going to help with research. But we believe that it will be a step forward and well remove some of those barriers. So whats the process . Whats The Next Step . Next step is the government will seek Public Opinion and well do an official Review Process and we as an organization are going to help make sure that as Many Americans as possible send their comments to the federal government as part of that Public Comment period. And make it clear that the American People want this rescheduling to take place after that, the office of Management Budget will do its review, which will hopefully result in the official rescheduling scheduled three. And then how do you see it potentially impacting some jurisdictions or states allow it marijuana for recreational use. People can, you know, out in the open, be smoking marijuana, doesnt have to be distinguished for medicinal purposes. Do you believe this new rescheduling also means that it will impact laws immediately actually, it will not change laws at the state level. And thats an important point. States still have the ability to criminalize medical canvas patients. They still have the ability to criminalize adults who responsibly use cannabis. And so this rescheduling will not change the fact that states still have the authority to make their own decisions on canvas policy. Thankfully, over the last decade plus, many states, 24 of them have legalized canvas for adults 21 and over, and 38 states have legalized medical cannabis, but were going to have to continue our work at the state level and rescheduling will not change the authority of states to make their own decisions. And with regard to Public Consumption gen. Of cannabis, thats not actually something we support as a matter of Public Policy none of the laws that ive ever been a part of passing havent allowed Public Consumption. And so nobody should go out and smoke weed and public just because of this rescheduling thats illegal everywhere and will remain so all right. Matthew schwierig. Thank you so much for your time.

Decades after the us face a spate of deadly Anthrax Attacks in 2001, the pentagon is adjusting its strategy to combat new biological threats, which could be made worse with help from ai cnns nick watt has a look at the evolving threats of chemical and biological weapons and what the us is doing to counter it the last deadly biological weapon attack On American Soil was that spate of anthrax laced letters sin, soon after 9115, people died. Since then for all that, the first phase is just much, much bigger, much more complex, much more dynamic. We should be concerned we should be very concerned in part because in the past, the the perpetrator had to actually have physical access to the pathogen now, its possible synthesized certain pathogens, the governments eyes were open to another new issue via fam, Little Experiment at a small Biotech Company in raleigh, North Carolina something that they hadnt imagined doing, which was breathtaking admission within a couple of weeks, we were talking to folks in the white house. They tasked and ai algorithm that usually designs helpful molecules to design harmful molecules similar to vx the poison gas infamously used by Saddam Hussein to Massacre Thousands of his own people in 1988, we just flip the directionality in the are probably about six hours. It came up with a roughly 40,000 molecules. We never actually made any of them. So just it clear. And we never tested any of them because that would be against the law and the good news is that this is harder than it sounds developing these kinds of weapons and applying advanced technologies to them is still a very difficult, complex process. So at this point the throes primarily from states, china, north korea, and russia a ship which has used chemicals in assassinations. Remember, they tried to kill Alexey Navalny with a nerve agent called novichok in a post on instagram. You can hear kremlin denies it and its worth noting that the Islamic State that had a very active Chemical Weapons Program about ten years years ago. Some of their experts are still at large. Those bad actors plus computers spitting out recipes for novel pathogens and synthetic manufacturer of pathogens have forced the Us Government into a complete change of approach. The pivots been to not focus on what they traditionally call one drug, one bug, days gone by. The government could get people listed potential agents, anthrax, sarin, vx and a list of the treatments and countermeasures for each one. Not anymore. Theyre now spending a lot of money on that pivot. We went from 1. 2 billion per annum to 1. 8 billion when youre not able to protect against everything then you have to have in place Good Strategies and good reaction times.
