Transcripts For CNNW CNN Newsroom With Brooke Baldwin 20150818

Up to 50 among gop voters. Thats an 8 gain. Trump is defying his critics and his doubters yet again. Lets dig deeper into these poll numbers with our senior washington correspondent jeff zeleny. Walk us through what the polls show and what we can take from the numbers. Ana, you hit the point on the head there. Voters are getting more comfortable with donald trump. I think thats exactly what we are seeing. Initially it was curiosity. People were tuning in to see how the celebrity could run for president. But since then, his staying power has only grown, as you can see from the poll now compared to june. He has started to become a touch of a bit more serious of a president ial candidate. Weve heard him talk about immigration, weve heard him talk again and again about making America Great again. After spending some time out there with voters, both in iowa, New Hampshire and other states, i can tell you that voters want are liking what they hear about his how hes talking back to washington. Hes reflecting their frustrations and they like that so far. But its not complete positive news for donald trump in this poll. There are some signs of some questions about his staying power. Right. How do you explain he has these improved Favorability Ratings and yet in the polls, the majority of republicans say that they have 58 favorability. That basically is all of the other people supporting the other candidates except donald trump. If you add up the support, ted cruz, rand paul, Carly Fiorina support, all of the other republicans who are supporting these other candidates, they are worried about donald trump. But the reality is he clearly is Holding Steady with about 24, 25 of the republican vote. He had the biggest gains of all of the candidates. He did. Jeff zeleny, thank you. Donald trumps vow now is to repeal the 14th amendment known as birthright citizenship is creating divisions. Scott walker is quick to compare his own immigration reform. He has endorsed this idea of no more birthright citizenship. And marco rubio weighed in from the iowa state. He has a different take. Listen. I dont agree with that. I certainly think we have to do a better job. Im open to doing things that prevent people who deliberately come to the u. S. With the purpose of taking advantage of the 14th amendment. But im not in favor of repealing it. I havent read his plan. Ive only red accounts of some of them. Obviously theres some idea without merit but the majority is not a workable plan that could pass congress. The issue of birthright citizenship is front and center in one texas county right now. Lets bring in our cnn senior legal analyst jeffrey toobin. Also, rafael romo. Lets start with you. What is happening in this Dallas County where they stopped issuing birth certificates. Explain. It was not only Dallas County but the entire state of texas has stopped issuing birth certificates to parents of some children born to undocumented parents. The affected families are those trying to use an i. D. Issued by mexican consulate. The Texas State Department of health and Services Says because consulates do not verify those that try to obtain the i. D. Civil rights say it has nothing to do with security and everything to do with discrimination. This has never been an issue until the policy seemed to change all of a sudden. The policies seemed to change and the politicians started talking. Is this illegal to hold the birth certificates of children born in the u. S. . Not as far i can tell. The constitution has been interpreted this way for basically since the 14th amendment came into existence after the civil war. If you were born in this country, you are a citizen. Its possible, maybe, to change a law that could change birthright citizenship. But congress hasnt done either of those and at the moment, birthright citizenship is the law of the land. So i dont know what the possible rationale is. Advocates are not happy about this. Are they trying to do anything to combat it . Not only are they not happy but they are suing the state of texas. There was a lawsuit filed by the texas civil rights project claiming this is a discrimination case because it violates some of the things that jeff was talking about, the 14th amendment of the u. S. Constitution and its equal protection clause and the department of Health Services said this is not discrimination at all. They sent us a list. This is a list of valid identification documents. It includes foreign passports, a visa issued by the u. S. State department and also has the mexican Voter Registration card and even a foreign identification with a photo of the applicant. They say we give people choices. We just want to make sure that the documents that are given to us are secure but this is not about discrimination, the state of texas says. But thats so ridiculous because the identification of the parents is not relevant to the birth certificate for the baby. Thats what birth certificates are. Its a birth certificate for someone born regardless of what their parents immigration status is. So i think this county its not the state. Its the county. This county is going to lose this case. But the issue is obviously very much alive and Congress Perhaps and certainly the states could change birthright citizenship if they wanted to amend the constitution. This could be a litmus test for sure. Jeffrey toobin, rafael romo, thanks to both of you. A frantic manhunt is happening right now after not one but two bombs blasted in one of asias biggest tour cities. Two attacks that police now say involved the same type of bomb. Police in bangkok are hunting for this man that you see in the yellow shirt and glasses seen on this Surveillance Video dropping a backpack at a popular shrine just moments before an explosion tore through the heart of this citys times square. At least 22 people are now dead and more than 100 injured and less than 24 hours after the first bombing, a second blast has rocked bangkok today. This time at a river pier. Joining me now for an update on the investigation, nic robertson. What can you tell us about this manhunt that is ongoing right now . Well, what the police were saying is that there hasnt been a claim of responsibility. They still dont know who perpetrated these attacks but they are saying that the two bombs involved on monday and again today are exactly the same. And they say that the suspect who is seen in this yellow tshirt dropping off a backpack, they now say that he is the bomber. The bomber that put the backpack that they say he hid the backpack underneath the bench on monday. They directly are identifying him as being the bomber and thats the man that they are looking for. They are going through days and days of closed Circuit Television camera video footage from that area because they believe he might have been to the area before to scope it out, check it out to have a look. So but the police are also saying that they also believe that at least one person involved here is a Thai National. The implication appears to be this man being a Thai National but whether other foreigners are involved, they dont know that. The investigation is going on. At this stage they dont need outside help or at least they are not going to ask for it. They still feel confident that they are on a track and they can pursue this man or these people involved. Just very quickly, nic, do they believe that this individual is part of a Broader Group or network of sorts . The police arent saying but when they say that they believe a Thai National was involved but dont know if there were other thais or a foreigner, it leaves that implication open to that interpretation for sure, ana. Nic robertson, keep us posted. Thanks so much. Up next, news just in involving Rosie Odonnell. Her 17yearold daughter reported missing. They havent seen her in a week. Details, next.

Were following a developing story right now, the disappearance of Rosie Odonnells 17yearold daughter. She sent out a tweet a short time ago linking it to a social website. She adding to the mystery here, chelsea is not officially classified as missing. So lets bring in alexandra field who is looking into this story and rocsi diaz. What is rosie saying about her daughter . Clearly rosie is searching for her daughter even if police have not characterized her as missing. Heres what rosie put up on her website. She said Rosie Odonnells 17yearold daughter, Chelsea Odonnell, has been reported missing since august 16th. She was last seen tuesday august 11th. She left home with her therapy dog named bear. She needs medication. Chelsea, like millions of people, lives with Mental Illness. It has been a difficult road for chelsea and her family and they just want her back safe. Rosie has been doing everything she can, it seems to reach out to her 17yearold daughter with not only that statement on her website but tweeting and trying to speak directly to chelsea asking her to come home, posting a picture of her holding a child saying, she was asking for you today, yourfamily call. She believes her daughter may be in the new york city area. Again, she has said that her daughter is without her medication. The publicist says that this is a young woman living with some Mental Illness so the family is turn certainly trying to make every effort. And they are appealing to the police to be on the lookout. The Odonnell Family came forward, reached out to police on sunday to report that chelsea was missing since they had not seen her since tuesday but police say they didnt categorize her as a missing person because the family had been in contact with her at various times last week, it seems. No further update on when the family has last heard from chelsea. Thats why she may be taking these very public means to reach out to her child. Rocsi, rosie has largely been out of the limelight since she left the view several months ago. Whats shes been up to . Shes been keeping quiet. The reason why she left the view was to concentrate on her family. She was going through a very public divorce and also a health care back in 2012 she had a mild heart attack. She was putting her family and health first and trying to live a stressfree life. From what we do know about rosie on doodonnell, shes always be a family person. Shes shared her views with the public and we saw how family oriented Rosie Odonnell was. This was a real shocker because we didnt know that there may have been problems at home with Rosie Odonnell and her kids and we didnt know that Rosie Odonnell had a child dealing with Mental Illness. This is the first that were hearing about this at all. Shes definitely exposing a little more of that privacy in the hopes of helping to track down her 17yearold daughter. Your heart goes out to her as a parent knowing she must be heartbroken right now. Rocsi diaz, our thanks to both of you if anything happens in the next couple of hours. Up next, a White Charlotte Police Officer facing manslaughter charges in the death of an unarmed black man. This happened before ferguson, before baltimore, and this dash cam video could be a key piece of evidence. How is it going to influence prosecution and the jury .

At any moment now, jurors are set to deliberation in the case of a Police Officer who shot an unarmed black man back in 2013. It was one late september in 2013, Jonathan Ferrell crashed his car and went to someones house. The woman called nine and when the officers responded, two officers arrived and ferrell is seen approaching officer kerrick. He charged 12 shots and ten of them hit and killed 24yearold ferrell. In the closing arguments, the Prosecutor Says kerrick made a bad choice. He had nondeadly options at his exposure. Im not here to say hes a bad person but he made a bad choice. Now the defense countered saying it was the shooting victim who made the wrong decision, quote, charging at the officers. Listen. This is not about an unarmed suspect not being harmless. You heard, unarmed does not mean undangerous. The fact that no weapon was found doesnt matter. You could still be a danger to a person without having a weapon. Lets bring in hln legal analyst, the man, joey jackson, who has been following this case for a couple of weeks. They dont necessarily think this officer was a bad person out for anybody. But that he maybe panicked in the situation. So what do they need to prove voluntary manslaughter . Sure. Well, what happens is the prosecution has to establish unreasonableness and in terms of the action of the officer and in terms of the following of the training. That certainly was a bad choice and that bad choice was on the part of the officer because you have ferrell who was unarmed. You have ferrell who was shot, according to the prosecutor within three seconds of them getting there and, as a result of that, that officer on trial, wes kerrick, acted as an unreasonable officer under those circumstances. The defense, of course, has much to say about that and thats what they said in their closing arguments. What they are suggesting, two things that were very compelling for them. Number one, they brought in an Expert Witness on use of force training. And that Expert Witness happened to be the teacher of the expert for the state. Think about that for a moment. You have a person that looks the jury in the eye and says this officers actions were reasonable. Why . Because the person shot and killed was moving to get the gun of the officer and, therefore, it make it is justified. Not only that, you have a battle of the experts and its certainly not uncommon for two experts for two different things. The state expert says what they say and, of course, the defense says what they say. But, more importantly, you have the dna expert that the state brought on that says there was blood. Where was the blood . On the officer. On the boots of the officer and on the gun of the officer. Now, thats an arguable point, to be clear, because it could have been blood splatter based on an unreasonable shooting and, as the officer testified, that he was trying to grab the gun and climbing and crawling up him. Its a lot for the jury to interpret under the circumstances. The prosecution did have the fight the fact that ferrell was running towards the officers, which we see in the dash cam video which was a key piece of evidence for the defense. Lets watch it one more time real fast. Get on the ground get on the ground running. [ gunfire ] theres a long pause before you hear the gunshots. The officer had to explain why he was running towards the officer. How important was that to the prosecutions case . Its very important. Both sides could interpret it very differently. For the prosecution point, we see the arms and hands of ferrell. He has nothing on him at all. Whats the justification of him being shot . How dare you do engage in this unreasonable action and kill someone without justification. Thats the prosecutor. From the defense perspective, they are saying hes running towards him and, as a result of that, certainly he feared for his life if hes running towards him and had no other choice but to protect himself. Youll remember, when he testified he said, i felt i was going to die that day. But now the officer who was closest, officer little, pulled out a taser, not a firearm and thats telling that the only shots fired was that who was accused of voluntary manslaughter. One pulled a taser, the other nothing at all. You tell me what was reasonable. The timing of the trial is interesting because the events happened before all of these recent events that have been highly publicized. Sure. The ferguson shooting of michael brown, the baltimore situation leading to all of the riots with freddie gray and yet this is now on trial and there is great public scrutiny about police actions. Sure. Could that influence the case . You know, you always hope not in that you hope that the jury evaluating the case is going to evaluate is on the merits here. But to your point, interestingly enough, an initial grand jury they dont decide guilt and innocence, as we know. The original grand jury said, no, and they dismissed the case. They said theres not probable cause. Thats right. And another jury, a week later, based on more evidence and testimony presented by the prosecution, decided to indict. So even then you saw the interplay of perhaps other issues that are occurring here. So at the end of the day, you want that jury to focus on these circumstances and make a decision on the case here and not what happened in North Carolina or anywhere else in the country. Its in their hands now as the deliberations are set to begin. Joey jackson, thank you. Thank you. And you. Thanks for coming on. Up next, the video has just surfaced showing that tense meeting between Hillary Clinton and members of the black lives Matter Movement. You heard about this meeting last week but youre going to see what happened when they con fronted her behind closed doors and well speak live with one of the leaders of this movement about what she thought of clintons response. Plus, two women are now the first to complete the intense Army Ranger Training course and they are set to graduate. Certainly a historic accomplishment. But whats next for them . Why they might not see the battlefield. Stay with us. I was really surprised that i wasnt finding all of these germans in my tree. I decided to have my dna tested through ancestry dna.

We have seen activists with the black lives Matter Movement disrupt and even take over several president ial cam pepaig events. We havent seen the dialogue between those activists and the candidates until now. The Group Released two parts of the conversation with Hillary Clinton and they were not allowed into her event in New Hampshire but it came afterwards. Now, in the first part, clinton tells them that while she disagrees that while she agrees there should be calls what she calls a reckoning, she suggests activists come together around potential legislation and then theres a second clip that was released. I want you to listen to this next exchange. If you dont tell black people what we need to do and we wont tell you all what you need to do. Im not telling you. Im telling you to tell me. What i mean to say is, this is and has always been a white problem of violence. Theres not much that we can do to stop the violence against us. Well, if thats i understand. I understand what youre saying. And respectfully respectfully, if that is your position, i will only talk to white people about how we are going to deal with the very real problems thats not what i mean. Thats not what i mean. But just what you said was a form of victim blaming. You were saying what the black lives Matter Movement needs to do is look, i dont believe you change hearts. I believe you change laws, you change allocation of resources, you change the way systems operate. Youre not going to change every heart. But at the end of the day, we can do a whole lot to change some hearts and systems and create more opportunities for people who deserve to have them, to live up to their own god given potential, to live safely without fear of violence in their own communities, to have a decent school, to have a decent house, to have a decent future. So we can do it one of many ways and we can keep the movement going, which you have started, and through it you may actually change some hearts. But if that is all that happens, well be back here in ten years having the same conversation. Lets bring in a Strategic Partner of the black lives Matter Movement. Joining me now, you just heard what Hillary Clinton had to say and that interaction, although you werent in the room. How did she do . I think it was clear how she did. She did exactly what most white people do when they are faced with direct questions from black people and what they can do to better assist with the call to action that is taking place right now. What do you mean . She was very defensive. She was very intentionally suggestive of what other people could do as opposed to what she specifically could do. She said she doesnt believe in that and that is a majority of the time the reaction that weve seen from the Progressive Movement towards these calls to actions. Im not so sure she said she doesnt agree with that but she did kind of qualify it saying there has to be more than that. We need real legislation or some kind of concrete steps that the politicians can take to make a difference when it comes to policy perhaps and she did send out a statement we must change hearts in america. Does that help . I dont think that that helps. I think that what helps is to actually be receptive and what were seeing is a lot of folks, bernie sanders, multiple campaigns after the fact. What we actually need support in is actually being receptive of what is happening when youre directly addressing the issues that weve been lifting up consistently around black deaths in this country. And lets talk about that, in terms of how this has been approached by black Matters Movement when we approach the season. We have seen several instances where many of your supporters are interrupting the campaign events, taking the microphone, shouting out at the candidates. Larry with Comedy Central had this to say about all of that. I agree that black lives matter but what matters matters as well. And if were keeping it 100 and also keeping it 100 based on the demographics. Ben jerrys would be nilla please. Do you agree . Do black manners matter, also . I think theres respectability that has to be challenged and i think that what happens and there is a process to take the lives of black people. Let me pose the question this way. I think what hes getting at is a way that the movement has interrupted the events. Is yelling at the candidates the best way to get your message heard and get the movement going . Absolutely. I wouldnt have the opportunity to tell you that five black women have been murdered in this country and theres been no outrage or release from the Current White House administration or any of the political candidates that are running for president right now. So right now you dont support any of the candidates . Each candidate should be held accountable. Thats our political position in this current election cycle. And what can they do it earn your support . To expect to be held accountable. What is that accountability . So the responsibility is to the people and to the people who they are also most disconnected from. And you dont think the current president , president obama has done enough either . I think weve seen the current president really uplift narratives that were respectable, like Larry Wilmore has suggested but we havent seen the president tackle black trans issues. And theres a level of theres a level of disconnect that this Current Administration has. You still dont feel heard. Were glad to have you being able to share your thoughts. Thank you. And thats something that the Current Administration could also do. We havent heard that yet. A white person would say that. Thank you for being here. Glad we offered an opportunity to get the message out. Absolutely. The black lives movement has gained momentum in ferguson and now as ferguson struggles to rebuild after the unrest in the past year, you can help that community. Go to cnn. Com impactyourworld for ways to help. Still ahead, any moment now, Hillary Clinton is getting ready to speak live in las vegas.

Two women are about to graduate from the armys exhausting, grueling elite ranger school. 19 women participated in the forces combat leadership course that teaches students how to overcome fatigue, hunger and stress during difficult combat operations and for 62 days, these ladies trained with minimal food, little sleep in the woods, mountains, swamp lands and we cant even begin to list the things that they endured. Joining me now is a senior fellow at the Council Foreign relations. Think about women soldiers on the special ops battlefield. Thank you for joining us. I appreciate it, gale. It is a real test of strength and agility. Its a 62day course but these women have been in it for more than 100 days and they have not given up. And they have come out better and stronger and tougher and smarter for it and also a lot hungrier and tired from when they began. 94 men made it all the way through. So these women really were keeping up with the men. What is the most challenging part of all of this . Were looking at pictures of the pushups and situps and they had to do parachute drops and get through helicopter attacks and so forth. Thats true. 3 of the entire army has a ranger tab. This is something that is a real test and i think a lot of people wanted to show that they could do the 100 days or 62 days of tests. I think the hardest part is actually the mountain phase. A lot of students who have gone through it would say the Biggest Issue is endurance. Because by day 62, if you go straight through, which only twothirds of Army Ranger School candidates do, you are hungry, tired, losing weight and youve got 2200 calories a day and then you go to florida, the swamp phase, as we were just visiting, the last phase, and it is hot down there and its really exhausting and then you know youre at that physical level where youve been depleted from the other two phases. You really push the limits on all fronts. The question is, what is in store for the next . And i want to play what gop president ial candidate jeb bush had to say. He had an opinion about this today while speaking at the National Security conference in south carolina. Lets take a listen. So what happens now . Should women go to combat . Absolutely. If they are rangers, they are clearly qualified. These decisions are made by the military, not by the political side of washington, d. C. , but if youre ranger ready, youre combat ready. Uhhuh. And thats the extraordinary feet for these two women and something that they should be proud of. And it was a little echoey. He said if youre ranger ready, youre combat ready. Every women we have an opportunity to meet the standard and in a lot of ways its really battlefield reality and sort of regulation even if the combat was in place, a team of women recruited, trained and deployed to go on night raids alongside rangers and seals in 2011. So this is, in many ways, the next step in opening combat roles to women and i think the key piece is it was transparent and if the standards were held the same, which is what everybody wanted from the beginning. Why do you think it is any more dangerous for a woman on the front lines than men . Are they more vulnerable perhaps than others . It was about women fast roping with rangers. They get used to the idea of how to integrate women and make sense for each kfr. Its not entirely top down. What you see now is each phase and the fact that those two women met the rangers standard is what everybody is going to hang on to. That means no special exceptions were given. More thanks so much for joining me. Thank you. Up next, how did Charles Manson convince his fill low followers to commit the gruesome murders . A special report coming up next.

What did you find out about Charles Manson and what happened that maybe we havent heard . There were a couple of things. One that really struck me and that is what the father had to do. Shes 8 months pregnant, begs for the life of her baby and they give her no mercy. The father had to, because unlike todays world, things were very different back then. Had to go into the home several weeks after the murder and clean up his daughters blood. And that, to me, struck me in such a way. It chills down my back. I could feel the fathers pain and he has since died but its a horrible, horrible detail that i had never heard before. Right. From a friend of the family who talked about how it literally brought him to his knees in grief. The details inside this special report. Sara sidner, thank you so much. We look forward to it. You can watch the special report face of evil. The Charles Mansons murders airing right here on cnn. Top of the hour, im ana cabrera in for brooke baldwin. Any moment now, Hillary Clinton will take the microphone in las vegas but will she talk about those emails . More than 300 documents we now know on her private server are coming under closer review to see if they contained any classified or secret information. Lets get right to our cnn senior washington correspondent jeff zeleny. I guess its a gamble either way. Is she going to talk or ignore it . This is a town hall meeting in las vegas. Its an opportunity for voters to ask what is on their mind. Its an open question whether any of them will ask her about this. Certainly the democrats were talking to and in fact our producer was talking to some voters in the line outside there. A few of the voters told him that they want to hear her address this. Well see if any of them ask this question or not. The Clinton Campaign is taking on a slightly new strategy on this whole email controversy. They are trying to cast it as simply an old partisan fight, similar to other clinton controversies from days gone by, trying to rally democrats behind them at this point as republicans keep asking these questions. So well just have to wait and see over the next hour or so if shes asked and if she answers any questions on these emails. Jeff zeleny, well wait and see, as always. Lots of twists and turns along the campaign trail. Trump is widening his lead and setting the Campaign Agenda for the gop, donald trump standing tall as the clear leader in the race for the republican nomination. At least according to the latest orc nationwide poll taken, the first one taken since the republican candidate debate. 24 of registered republican voters, you can see here, choose trump. Jeb bush comes in second. Hes still 11 points back with 13 . Retired neurosurgeon ben carson in third with 9 and followed by marco rubio, scott walker at 8 . Trump is also doing very well among republican women. 60 have a positive response. Here is a clip of erin, from the apprentice. Im tougher and smarter. Shes so tough and so smart that she worked to the best of her ability yesterday and thats a fact. Chris needs adult supervision 24 7. Hes not a professional. He should not be working for you. He should not even be here. Tough words, erin. Thank you so much for joining me. Donald trumps favorability among gop women is up. This is after all of the criticism about some of his comments on women. You know him personally. How do you feel about trump . I think hes wonderful. As a boss, he treated me with nothing but respect. I saw him respecting women every single day that i worked for him. His righthand person was a woman. Treated her with respect and his daughter as well, worked within the organization and he treated her great, too. So what do you make of those comments about women in the past calling them slobs and pigs and really throwing insults that are d degrading to our gender . I think shes a pitbull when attacked and sometimes may not always say the right thing but when it comes to the president ial campaign, the numbers are what they are. He seems to be leading because people think hes a breath of fresh air in what is a broken system. The fact that hes not a career politician is really making people look at him twice and think, wow, hes saying something that matters, he is going to help the American People and i think thats wonderful. Would he be a good president . Well, he was certainly a good boss and ive read all of his books and in new york city theres a place called wolman risk. The government was trying to make it beautiful. He picked up the project and got it done quicker and under budget. Thats one example of good leadership. He could be a good leader but may not make a good president. Does he have your vote . You know, november is a little bit far away but so far so good. Im with the American People and hes leading so im going to follow. So youre on the trump bandwagon . Im on the trump bandwagon. I think he was a great boss and great leader. Hes very intelligent. He certainly knows how to manage as a ceo. I want you to pull back the curtain for us. Given your experience on the apprentice, what kind of insight can you provide on how trump works behind the scenes . For example, is he willing to take advice . He is. He loves working and talking with really smart people. What i knew, as soon as he got in the room, Say Something quickly, Say Something intelligent and say it concisely. Because he does not want to be bogged down with rhetoric. Hes about being smart and just loving getting everything done and making people happy. He has gotten a little bit of flack for his comments about how he is creating his Foreign Policy by watching the sunday shows and does he go out and seek others opinions . I saw him do that. For example, on every single task that we did on the apprentice, we worked with a different fortune 500 company and i could see them having discourse and he really asked for their opinion on every single situation. So i can see him taking the advice of others. However, i do think that you need to treat him with kid gloves sometimes. You cant come after him with visceral you have to be careful but thats okay. I think anyone in a position of power just knowing how to handle that and how to respect them and work with them is a part of doing business. Can you see him having conversations and working diplomacy with somebody like putin . Wow. I dont know Vladimir Putin but i hope that he will think before he speaks and do the best that he can to take care of the American People. He takes great care of his employees. He took great care of me. I wouldnt be in the position i am in if it werent for donald trump. Id like to get your reaction on a headline. That super model heidi klum is no longer a ten. Take a look. She responded. I dont know, erin, if heidi isnt a 10 anymore, the rest of the gender is in trouble. I think shes an 11. I really think shes an 11. Maybe they have a personal inside relationship where they are joking around or maybe hes just trying to get attention. I have a 2yearold. Sometimes he does things just to get a reaction. Maybe sometimes we all just act out a little bit. Erin, thank you so much for your time today. I appreciate it. Thank you for having me. President obamas push for an iran deal just hit another speed bump. Democratic senator Robert Menendez says he will not support it joining democratic senator chuck schumer. That is not necessarily a surprise to anybody but Senior Reporter Steven Clawson is joining us. Hes been following this story. Why is he going against the president and planning to vote against the deal . Senator menendez says this deal would delay the inevitable and end up, in the years to come, allowing to iran to get deals in the nuclear bomb and sanctions relief will give it about 150 billion to pursue terrorism throughout the middle east. And to give a public speech to rally a position to this deal, it was very personal. There seemed to be a number of lines in there that were directed towards the president himself. He said that the deal was based on hope and that hope is not a National Security strategy and he said that if iran does get the bomb in the years to come, it will not be his name. Senator menendezs name on that bomb, implying it would be president obamas name, it would be associated with that weapon. How are the numbers stacking up . In favor of the president or against . We know that the majority certainly run by republicans are voting against. But does the president have enough support to basically prevent a veto . Or to uphold his veto of theirs . Right. Thats the question. And the intense debate is going to be over Democratic Senators and democratic lawmakers in the house. At this point, two senior citizens, senator menendez and schumer, have publicly come out against this deal. Its not clear, though, that the support for the deal is the senate or the house. Most people look at this and think that as it stands now, the president probably does have enough support for his veto not to be overridden. But theres going to be a fiveweek period next month when the lawmakers come back from their summer recess. Its going to be very intense. Theres a lot of money and pressure being on that, on senators to vote against this deal and theres going to be some real fireworks in washington in the next month over this. Steven staying on top of it for us, thank you. Up next, two attacks, two days, exploding in a tourist hub and the search is under way right now for this man. Who is he .

A manhunt is happening right now after not one but two bomb blasts in one of asias biggest tour cities. Two attacks that police now say involve the same type of bomb. And now they have a suspect. Police in bangkok are hunting for this man seen on Surveillance Video who they say they are very sure dropped a backpack at a popular shrine and then ducked for cover under a bench. Just moments before, an explosion tore through the heart of the city. At least 22 people were killed and more than 100 hurt and less than 24 hours after the first bombing, a second blast has rocked bangkok today. Police believe someone on a motorbike threw that bomb towards a pier. No one was injured the second time but they believe its the same type of bomb used in the first attack. Back here in the u. S. , wildfires raging out west so ferocious. The u. S. Military is joining the front lines. There are already 25,000 firefighters working across ten states. Some of these firefighters from other countries and now 200 active duty soldiers are lending a hand. This hasnt happened since 2006. Officials are monitoring close to 100 wildfires and more than 100 million acres have been scorched. Lets get to cnns Jennifer Gray watching these weather conditions out west for us. It sounds awful. It really is. The fires are advancing so fast, the firefighters cant keep up and we have very hot air temperatures and dry conditions and also have the wind that is all working against them in this fight for trying to put out these wildfires. The heat will continue and the winds are going to play a huge factor over the next couple of days. They can carry the small embers that is not currently burning and, boom, you have another fire that quickly. And so thats one thing that is going to be really working against them. These winds across the Pacific Northwest could be gusting up to 40 Miles Per Hour by the time we get into thursday and thats going to advance those fires very quickly. We also have very dry air in place. Thats also going to make the grass, the trees that are already very dry, its just going to make them drier. That is going to allow fuel for the temperatures. 90 degrees in seattle. On wednesday, they should be in the mid70s. Temperatures in the triple digits once we get into northern california. We have a lot of fires that were watching and i want to show you on the map because you can get a better idea where all of these are. Look at the concentration near idaho and boise. 82 active large fires. 1 million acres currently burning west of the rockies. We look at this as a longterm scenario waus because this isnt going to be put out overnight. Unfortunately, we could see warm and dry conditions as we move forward into the winter months in the northwest. However, we could get help from the el nino in california. Ana . Its not good. Jennifer gray, thanks so much. Up next, the fda deciding today if its going to okay the drug being called female viagra. The possible problems with this drug and how it works, next. But your stellar notebook gives hanyou the gumptionlc. To reach for the sky. Thats that new gear feeling. This week, these Office Depot Brand notebooks just one cent. Office depot officemax. Gear up for school. Gear up for great. And i am a certified arborist for pg e. Ughes i oversee the patrolling of trees near power lines and roots near pipes and underground infrastructure. At pg e wherever we work, we work hard to protect the environment. Getting the job done safely so we can keep the lights on for everybody. Because i live here i have a deeper connection to the community. And i want to see the Community Grow and thrive. Every year we work with cities and schools to plant trees in our communities. The environment is there for my kids and future generations. Together, were building a better california. A decision to approve or turn down the female viagra to treat a lack of sexual desire in women. It comes in a little pink pill and the fda has twice turned down this approval. Lets talk more about this with a urological doctor and a clinical psychologist and certified sex therapist. First to you, dr. Cheatam, how does this work . Its being marketed as the female viagra but its working on very different receptors in the brain and its working on a receptacle. In 1991 went we discovered viagra, it was marketed initially as a medication for Blood Pressure but the man who took this for blood had great erections. A side effect. This drug for women was initially developed as an antidepressant in 2006 and found that women in the study, they had improved sexual desire. In the women only, actually. Doctor, should it be approved . Well, weve been looking for a pill for women to help with their sexual desire because ive seen so many women for so many years because they are in so much pain emotionally that they cant get excited. Its important in a relationship. Well, exactly. And thats exactly the point, that its the intimacy and the love that really matters to women. Not taking the pill that is going to affect their brain and its really difficult and dangerous and i think its a medication that is affecting the brain. And its pushing blood there so the man has an erection. This is pushing chemicals in the brain and that concerns me. Its related to depression and treatment for depression so what if youre not depressed and you have to have so importantly a psychiatric evaluation for your total medical condition. What about those risks . Its not a one size fits all. We know that the definition of female sex dysfunction is no desire for six months or more, that its causing distress, as judy has emphasized, and there are no relationship factors, no hormonal factors. What about side effects . I think the side effects that have been shown in studies are overall mild side effects, Central Nervous side effects are nausea, fatigue in some people, difficulty sleeping, insomnia, dizziness. These are very nonspecific symptoms but most women are not stopping the drug. I think its very important that we dont rush out, if this gets approved and say, i want to be the female stud. Im going to be so much more attractive. I want women to feel already confident, already good about where they are. Weve been spending so many years with sex therapists saying who you are, if you have a better relationship and increase your selfesteem and you feel that you are loved and boughtful, that your sex desire is okay, work on the psychological things before you start working on i have to say, too, because im kind of skeptical, is this about money and pharmaceutical industry making big bucks or is this really a medical breakthrough . The first thing you have to remember is that many, many women are taking pills for antidepression already and they are trying to fight depression already and heres another pill that can fex another problem. If youre not careful, you can be taking so many pills. You need to look at what you put in your diet, your lifestyle, your relationship. This is not a quick fix. Ladies, thank you. Youve been warned out there. Take it with caution. Thank you to both of you. Thank you. Up next, coming up, Rosie Odonnell says her daughter hasnt been seen for days. Shes missing.

An elite school has the reputation for graduating the best and brightest, including secretary of state john kerry. But its st. Pauls School Private traditions that is now the focus of a rape trial under way right now. This student is accused of sexually assaulting a schoolmate in may of last year. She was just 15 years old. The Associated Press cites that he did it for the socalled senior salute, a competition for seniors to have as many as sexual encounters with underclass girls as possible. The Opening Statements today reflect that he did not have consent. Shortly after the assault, jesse messaged him asking him, did you wear a condom . Youll see his responses that he sends back, are you on the pill . I think youre okay. You should be good. I put it on halfway through. Referring to the condom. Now, his attorney, says there was not rape because there was no sex. Also here, Phillip Holloway and hlns nancy grace. You said theres no way this defendant can get a fair trial. Why . Ana, what they are doing is bringing in current and former students who are going to talk about this culture that they are calling it a sexual deef yent culture and in america we dont base a trial on their character. This guy could be the most voracious sexual animal on campus but unless he actually forced her to have sexual intercourse, hes not guilty of a crime. They are trying to condemn him for this culture that exists on this campus. Nancy, do you agree that testimony shouldnt be allowed for those who can talk about the socalled senior salute that some of the members go through . Well, the law is as follows. While the defense attorney is correct, you cant base it on reputation alone, i agree. However, if the motivation behind the alleged rape is the senior salute game, essentially a contest that the men at the school where they take their virginity taking somebodys virginity doesnt mean its rape. It has to be done without consent. I dont believe that was the question, sir. And id like the chance to finish. What youre asking me is whether other students would be able to testify to this game called the senior salute. Id like to finish. Repeat. To explain the game someone may come in and explain that to the jurors if its proven that that is what the defendant was doing, im much more concerned not so much with the game as to the actual evidence showing rape. And i believe that will be shown by a nurse testimony that there were lacerations in this teen girls vagina showing recent sex activity. Now, if he were arguing this was consensual, that wouldnt count for so much. But the fact that hes claiming there was no sex at all, and then the girl shows up with lacerations in her vaginal area, that, to me, disapproves his defense totally. How do you defend against that kind of evidence, phillip . If theres a sexual l laceration, its going to have to be an expert to talk about that caused by nonconsensual activity by these two people. They are bringing informer and current students who werent there. They werent there and dont know what happened. To say that a laceration alone or one injury was a result of a rape is absolutely putting the cart way before the horse. Second verse the same as the first. Forget about all of the other students. You sound like a broken record. Im talking about the alleged victim that will testify to what happened. Not only that, there are ten counts to this indictment. Three of them being aggravated sexual battery. I. E. , rape. They performed a search warrant on his computer and if he lured her to the location of the incident under false pretenses and then ended up raping her, theres more jail time to be had. Phillip, you talked about the culture. And that that should not be necessarily used against him in this case, the overall culture at this school, allegedly. St. Paul did release a statement. I want to read that for you. Current allegations about our culture are not emblematic of our school or values or rules or the people who represent our student body, alumni, faculty and staff. Beyond that, when you look at the defendant himself, were learning that he was supposed to go to harvard. He was actually going to study religion. Do you think that some of that information is going to come up in this trial, phillip, to sort of build up his character . I do. Because a persons good character, on the other hand, can sometimes be used as a defense. The things we saw in these Opening Statements, thats not evidence. The judge will tell the jury that. Its way too early to start calling somebody a rapist just because the prosecution says so in Opening Statements. The jury is going to have to decide who is the winner of this swearing contest, ana, between the defendant and his accuser. Thats what it is going to come down to. The actual evidence from the people who were there and who the jury believes. Nancy, final thoughts . You know, i keep hearing the same defense attorney say the same thing over and over and over. Thats because hes right in one aspect. This is not about the culture at the school. Hes wrong in this count. Its about what this victim says and what the forensics show. Thats what this is about. And on that note, Phillip Holloway and nancy grace, thank you to both of you. You can watch nancy grace each night at 8 00 p. M. On our sister station hln. Up next, a police pulled over a car and realized a baby was being delivered in the car. Thats up next. Im caridee. Ive had moderate to Severe Plaque Psoriasis most of my life.

My doctor said joint pain from ra can be a sign of existing joint damage that could only get worse. He prescribed enbrel to help relieve pain and help stop further damage.

Dont start enbrel if you have an infection like the flu. Joint pain and damage. Can go side by side. Ask how enbrel can help relieve joint pain and help stop joint damage.

Whoo dramatic. Lets talk Rosie Odonnell. Shes turning to twitter now to try to find her 17yearold daughter. She hasnt been seen in a week. Odonnell sent out a tweet a short time ago linking to her official website and in this statement she says her daughter chelsea went missing from their new york time about a week ago with their pet dog and is in need of medication. Cnn just reached out to local police. She was not initially classified as missing and they have since changed that. Lets bring in alexandra field, Chris Witherspoon of theg thegrio. Com. Police are now saying that it appears that the 17yearold ran away but its officially a missing persons case. The goal is to bring the 17yearold home to her family. Rosie odonnell using her public platform to reach the public and ultimately trying to reach her daughter. She wrote on her website, Rosie Odonnells 17yearold daughter Chelsea Odonnell was reported missing. The police have been looking for her in the Rockland County area since sunday august 16th. She was last seen tuesday august 11. She left home with her therapy dog named bear. Chelsea stopped taking her medication and is in need of medical attention. Rosie odonnells publicist sent out a statement saying, chelsly, like millions of people, lives with Mental Illness. It has been a difficult road and they just want her back safe. Shes been trying to contact or connect with her daughter in some way saying that she believes her daughter might be in the new york city area asking people to really be on the lookout for both chelsea and this dog that was with her. The time that she was reported missing on sunday she did use an unknown cell phone to make some kind of contact with the family members. Chris, Bigger Picture here, we hear this statement revealing that rosies daughter has Mental Illness. Did we know anything about that prior to this incident . I think we kind of knew that she was going home to deal with personal issues at home so this is kind of the missing link here. We realize she was dealing with a daughter who had Mental Illness. Its great to see Rosie Odonnell to come out here and be open and allow her fans and followers be the eyes and ears on the ground to find where this girl is. We hope that happens soon. Alexandra field and Chris Witherspoon, thank you. Hillary clinton is getting ready to speak live in las vegas at a packed gym. Moreton downey jr. Wags in your face.

I want to start with you bill. We saw that brief clip. That was a golden age of discourse on television. Is that real . Was he just that much of a loose cannon . Yeah, that was the show at the highest level. You have just seen it. Doeny was a brilliant guy. He could take something pro or con and argue it. He was as good as what he did in front of an audience of any performer of any kind. Brilliant man and performer. He knew how to make it work. Now, who was he really .

We did an hour on Car Insurance rates and only a guy like d o owney could make it that and what he brought to it. On the movie youre going to see it come popping up. I cannot wait to see it. I am curious did he hit a nerve with the guests that they would take it personally . Yeah, every time. Thats what he did. If you came on the show, you knew what youre getting. Were doing an interview on cnn. If you wanted him, you knew that there was a crazy aud skbreienc might get in your face. People knew what they were getting into. I have to show another clip because its too fun. Return to us the golden age of television. What do you think of what is going on today . Well, its all entertainment, and theres nothing wrong with it. Thats not reality. In having reality is having a fight on the downey show. Perhaps you did something important that went beyond a television show. I was sitting home one day and the phone rang. I was shocked. It was morton donwney called me that was the cry allen. He just wanted to remind me of the earlier days and ask me if there was anything that i needed from him before he departed the world. I told him that i thought that they contributed a lot to television for unrepresented people. Dont tell me what you did, tell me what you will do . He said that he did not hear that so often from people like me. Thats a different side and a way to look at his craft. We had a high level of giuess on the show. Not like jerry spring er. The downey was normal host with a totally crazy host. That was the difference. Lets fast forward here. He wrote this on cnn. Com. It says when he made the Television Day without, he was disruptive as donofrio today to the president ial field. You agree . Thats exactly what they said, and thats a big compliment for the ability and the performer to project the kind of energy that you just want to see what that guy is going to do. Thats why people watch him. You see this movie as it goes on and youre going to wonder what that guy is going do next. He has that same quality. You have the same passion. I love it. He says to me were moving out of the apartment, and i am helping him. Were move to go the trump tower. Were loading things up. I said where are you going to trump tower . He said yeah. I said trump is what we need. He is a business man and thats what we need. 30 years later. When was that . 30 years later. He would be cheering for trump. There were friends. It all comes full circle and having a chance to talk to both of you and hearing how much that you have and the love and care for Morton Downey jr. I wish that we would have had you as a guest. I am glad that i was not. I would not have faired well. All right. Thanks both of you. I want to make sure that you all know that you can catch the premier evocateur movie here this thursday night at 9 00. Thanks for being here with me. You may not support donald trump but those that do, really really like him. This is the lead and the politics lead brand new cnn poll shows trump pulling away from the pact with woman some of the biggest supporters even after the joke that he made or may not have made about blood and a female tv anchor. Two woman making American History and outlasting 300 of the guys that washed out to graduate from the
