The military. Pam larks on the president today, we saw him paying respects to the tomb of the unknown soldier. How is he spending this memorial day. The president has honored the fall fallen men and women, he had some other things on his mind on this memorial day. A tweet just before he went to Arlington National cemetery. The Unemployment Rate as well, and he attacked the russia probe in a series of tweets this morning as well. This follows a number of tweets over the weekend where the president also attacked the russia probe. In this particular tweet, why didnt the 13 angry democrats investigate crooked hillary clinton. Why didnt they take the server from the dnc rigged investigation. Its true that 13 of the at least 17 lawyers on muellers team have previously registered as democrats. Eight of them have given to democratic candidates. The man overseeing Robert Mueller is and what appears to be a coordinated effort here with his attorney in the russia probe. He had similar sentiment over the weekend, saying that the Mueller Probe is rigged, talking about the 13 democrats on the mueller team. In a stunning admission, Rudy Giuliani said the effort here, the strategy here is a pr campaign to sway Public Opinion about the Mueller Probe to undermine it, so it doesnt carry as much credibility in the court of Public Opinion. Rudy giuliani making the point that thats important. If it comes down to impeach or not impeach the president , lawmakers will be listening to their constituents. Also for the first time, Rudy Giuliani came out questioning the legitimacy of the russia probe. Its clear that not only are they looking at a legal strategy, but a pr strategy with all of this. Pamela thank you very much. I want to get now to the korean summit. Americans are in north kree as of now. This is what the president tweeted on this, our United States team has arrived in north korea, to make arrangements for the summit and myself. I believe the summit has great potential. Kim jongun agrees with me on this it will happen. Both of these officials were part of the negotiations in 2005. To our Cnn International correspondent in seoul, south korea, the date on the calendar was supposed to be june 12th. Does that date stand. As of now, it would appear that way. Over the last four or five days here, things have riflely changed quite drastically. What youre seeing is concrete steps to push this summit forward. We have a logistic delegation trying to figure out the basic details. Where is the summit going to be held the more important part would be whats going on north of us. Thats where that american delegation went into the north korean side. What this is this i summit going to look like, is president frumd going to sit across the table and talk about. Taken in totality, what youve seen over the past couple days, even if we dont have an official announcement that this summit is back on, all the stakeholders, the americans, south koreans, everybody is taking the necessary steps to push forward to make this summit a reality. How successful the summit will be is another question entirely. Well talk again in 24 to 48 hours. Lets have a bigger discussion now. Cnn political analyst, and paul callan. I wanted to hone in on his huge admission. He said team trump is trying to discredit mueller in the court of Public Opinion that their strategies are political not legal. Here he was. Theyre giving us the material. I couldnt do it, if they didnt have the material. Were defending to a large extent, were defending, it is for Public Opinion, eventually the decision here is going to be impeached, not impeached. Theyre going to be informed a lot by their constituents. Our jury is the american people. On the politics piece, and then from a legal perspective hes admitting it is about the court of Public Opinion, this is political. There are always two aud yentss here, one is how trump is going to interface in the legal investigation with bob muellers team. The other half was always going to be the court of Public Opinion. The track record, the pace at which the special Council Investigation is proceeding right now, odds are we end up in the same realm as the november 2018 midterm elections. By the time we get to this probe. If the house of representatives flips, theres going to be it matters in terms of how his f e fate he may not be gain the respect of the special counsel iland his team. He isnt going to be indicted as a sitting president. Giuliani is being honest about the fact that theres been two tracks going here at the same time. It is the situation were in. Is that the legal strategy youve been taken here . Kbla honesty is always a good strategy. Dana bash asked limb this question, are you trying to undermine this investigation . Normally what a lawyer will say is, were being fully cooperative with the investigation, we think theyre wrong. They reach the wrong conclusion, we will cooperate as the law requires. Instead, giuliani says, yeah, were trying to undermine the investigation. And theyve given us the material to undermine the investigation. When a lawyer says that, it sounds to me like hes recommending an obstruction of justice, and i think giulianis getting perilously close to stating things that are unethical for an attorney to state. Lets say a Large Business was being investigated because of embezzlement. And the president says were not going to do that, were going to do Everything Possible to undermine the embezzlement investigation. That would be a criminal obstruction of justice. It would help him in the court of Public Opinion. And his project would sell its still an obstruction. Giulianis perilous ly close lets take a step back here. When you look at what the president has attacked. I want to make sure were not getting numb to any of this. You have a president of the United States who ace attacked an active investigation. Including with russians. Hes called the Mueller Probe rigged without providing any evidence. And attacked the russia probe here on people oriole day before he walks into Arlington National cemetery. This is the two sides of President Trump. Its the most raw representation of who he is, and who he is on the state. He gave a very good speech, that was written by someone else. He did deliver it very well. And hit all the right notes for memorial day. At the same time, when hes off the stage, hes delivering his own feelings on memorial day. Its kind of like any other day with how the president s opining about the russia probe and other matters as well. Don jr. Maybe was lying about foreign contacts. Im concerned about reviewing the transcript of donald trump jr. s judiciary committee, that theres a clear tension between his firm answers that there were no efforts by a foreign power. Representatives of gulf states were offering some assistance to the trump campaign. What are the chances paul callan that he does that . What options lay on the table for these lawyers. In terms of obstructing i dont think they have a lot of options available to stop it from happening. I also think if any of these investigations starts to get close to the trump children, thats when youre going to see real pressure put on the president more so than anything else. Hes more confident if he sees his kids getting hurt by it, thats a pressure point. Prosecutors use Family Members against potential suspects all the time so it could happen here. Thank you. Coming up next, President Trump touts his own record of achievements to honor our fallen troops. It has some veterans in this country absolutely outraged. Catastrophic flooding in one maryland city. At least one man is missing, after he tried to help a womans cat from drowning in the water. Children as young as 18 months old being ripped from their parents arms at the border. It is happening right now in the u. S. We will fact check whats really happening with this new Trump Administration policy, stay with me. About your retirement savings.

He spoke there at Arlington National cemetery, while also laying a wreath at the tomb of the unknown soldier. The president is celebrating his own achievements, tweeting, happy memorial day, those who died for our great country would be very happy and broad at how well our country is doing today. Best economy in decades, lowest unemployment numbers for blacks and hispanics ever, and women, in 18 years, rebuilding our military, and so much more. Nice. Lets start there, with Lieutenant General mark hurtling. Cnn politics commentator, paris dennard, hes a member of the trump advisory board. Nice to have both of you on, and thank you so much for your service to this great country. On the president s tweet, and im sure you saw retired rear admirals tweet earlier, he found the message to be inappropriate, ignorant and tone deaf. That going too far . How do you feel . Im with admiral kirby, brooke, i know i dont speak for all veterans, i was disappointed in that tweet too, even a little bit saddened by such an emptiness of understanding of what today is all about, and a lack of Situational Awareness, i know there are were a lot of gold star families who either read the tweet or heard about it, its been on the news now, im sure it was hurtful to them as well. You know, the best way on memorial day to honor the fallen is too make the message about them or about the families that are trying to survive after the death of their loved ones, im with admiral kirby on that, and this day is supposed to be about the families and about the memory of those who gave the ultimate sacrifice. Paris, how do you see it . Thank you for having me here on memorial day, and my thoughts and prayers go out to all of those families who dealt with the ultimate sacrifice of having their Family Member killed on the battlefield. And i want to look at what President Trump said and say, the president was right. The soldiers who fought, bled and died, did so for the freedoms of america. They did so, so we could have the opportunity to live in a Free Enterprise system, where we do have a strong economy. They did so so we could live under american rule, and not under communism or socialism. Because of their sacrifices and the people who serve right now, fighting for us, and protecting us, we have had the freedoms and Free Enterprise system that allows us to have an amazing economy, a strong government, and a sense of pride in being american and seeing america grow and rise. And a congress and a president , especially who is leading the charge to have more funding for our military, the president s remarks via twitter, and his remarks there at arlington were heartfelt and appropriate. I dont think anybody should question the commitment to our soldiers and families, when you look at his chief of staff, general john kelly and the ultimate sacrifice that his family gave and the loss of his son in 2010, the president understands that, because he can walk down the hall and hear it from his chief of staff, who talks to him regularly. I think the president is acutely aware of what memorial day is, and thats why we celebrate and honor the sacrifice of all of those families first. We celebrate our families, their courage, but we remember and pay respect to those who have fallen. I wanted to hear you in full, and im listening to the general closely. You so, i understand youre saying our men and women fought for this great country. Then why the president his words were beautiful at arlington. Why not leave it at that. And also not tweet about this spy conspiracy and russia, before going to arlington and laying that wreath at the tomb of the unknown soldiers. Why go there, today of all days . Well, i think the president is able to tweet and talk about multiple things. The president decided to talk about other things add well. The president s tweets about memorial day, and his wreath laying ceremony and the his remarks at length at arlington were all appropriate. And i think the president has a right, and we all have freedom of speech, which is one of the things that the soldiers protect us for. The condy tugs, for us to be able to tweet and speak how we want to freely. The president , give him credit, he did tweet on multiple occasions about memorial day specifically, without any other fact or anything else inserted in there, at least 4 to 5 tweets were specifically about memorial day. General, do you want to respond . And then i want to move on. Im sieging by what paris is saying, first of all, the president doesnt understand the sacrifices of anyone, i tell you, having not given my life on the battlefield, my family doesnt understand the pain that other families feel, so he doesnt. I dont care if general kelly works down the hall from him or not. Its not a matter of that, theres a lack of Situational Awareness of what this day is all about. And yes the president did tweet after his speech about all of the things he said at the memorial service. And i guess that was his staff tweeting for him what he tweeted out about 10 32 this morning, about a half hour before that service went down. Ill tell you again, he doesnt get it, theres a lack of situational understanding when it comes to the veterans, and what veterans are looking for, in terms of their leader, their commander in chief. Ill leave it at that. Okay. General, let me stay with you, i want to ask you about we know the president is planning on going to the u. K. , in an interview with the guardian, Chelsea Clinton calls the british to protest his trip and in part she says, if i lived in britain, i would show up to protest, because i dont agree with what hes doing to degrade what it means to be an american. Degrade what it means to be an american. What do you think she means by that . I think some of the comments hes made about many of our alliances, especially the alliance with the u. K. , with nato, with others is what miss clinton is talking about, she has a free voice as well, and can voice her concerns. Im not sure its appropriate to request other people boycott, but in this other people from a different nation. But i can understand her sentiment. It is somewhat embarrassing the way our president , our commander in chief has been interacting with other nations. Especially those that are part of an alliance. What did you think of those comments, paris . Chelsea clinton did say whatever she wants, its a free country. I think that her comments were her tweets were inappropriate and rude. I dont think she would have wanted anybody to Say Something like that about her father, who is a former president , or about her mother who tried to be president several times over. So i just dont think that she is actually being fair and would really want that to be done to members of her own family. Its unfortunate that she as an american who reached the benefits of being an american, would call on others outside of our country to protest and to do something so disrespectful to the leader of the free world, especially on a Diplomatic Mission going overseas. Its unfortunate, but im not surprised. This may be a direct reaction to some of the things the president has gun. The london mayor and many of the political entities within the u. K. , im sure they were disrespected by many of the things President Trump said as well. If they were so disrespected, they would not have invited him to come to visit their country which they did do. They did not want him there, they should not have invited them. I think france understands that, north korea is going to see it, south korea, china. The president is doing a wonderful job internationally, he deserves to have that respect given to him, she would have asked for her mother or father. Two perspectives, want to hear them both . Thank you, gentlemen, very much. Coming up next, the Trump Administration under fire after losing track of 1500 immigrant children, where are they . Let someone else do the heavy lifting.

Ghost says its lost track of nearly 1500 immigrant children. These little boys and girls picked up at the border as unoccupied minors were placed in home homes of what were believed to be sponsors. The federal government insists its not legally responsible once children are out of their care. For some fact checking, lets go to sarah westwood. Brook, the department of health and human services, recently admitted that its refugee reset elment office was unable to locate kids placed with sponsor ppz hhs claims it no longer has legal responsibility for those kids once theyre placed with sponsors. Those 1475 kids are not people who were separated from parents at the border. Instead, these kids whose whereabouts are unknown came to the border as unaccompanied minors and taken into u. S. Custody, any family they had in the u. S. Was tracked down, and they were placed with those sponsors. The outrage of these kids started to grow after all the reporting. The kids are being separated from all their families at the border. Wail that may not be the case of these missing kids, you have heard of cases of is that . Thats right. The Trump Administration is referring 100 of illegal border crossings they could be sent to separate detention facilities and their children taken away. The policy shift already drawing a little challenge from the acla noting in court, have you little kids being separated 18 months old. Theyre screaming and crying, please dont let me be taken away. There are 700 little kids sitting there by themselves without their parents, they are traumatized. The policy change is meant as a zeer end to perspective undocumented immigrants. Take a listen to what Jeff Sessions had to say about it. If youre smuggling a child then were going to prosecute you. And that child will be separated in you probably as required by law. If you dont want your child to be separated, dont bring them across the border illegally. White house chief of staff john kelly has criticism of those policy shifts, saying in a recent interview to npr, the children will be taken care of put into foster care or whatever. Over the weekend, you know weighing this separation on a law passed by democrats. Whats the truth . The truth is a little more complicated than that. Some tweeting over the weekend puts pressure on democrats to end the horrible law that separates children from their parents once they cross the border and into the u. S. The reality is quite different. These are illegal immigrations. These are people that were taken at the border. Losing some kids, that goes back several administrations here as well.

Lets go to Jennifer Grey on the ground in pensacola florida. What are you expecting, as little rain . Not too much more . Right. Basically rain is going to be the biggest threat with this storm. We already have our first named system, should be making landfall within the next hour or two and rain is the biggest threat. Tons of people go to beaches on memorial day. You can see it gee certificated behind me. Off and on rain throughout the day. The panhandle stretching down to south florida. It is very messy, and so the impacts and the effects are far reaching. Were seeing rain from tennessee into south florida. The panhandle included in that. Were going to look for the possibility of flooding, where we could see anywhere from 6 to 10 inches of rain across places like southern alabama. That will stretch out to possibly 2 to 4 inches around the rest of alabama, tennessee and the florida panhandle. People have been staying home and taking it easy for this memorial day. It could have been worse, we know no injuries, no damage so far. Hardly anyone has lost power. Well take it. Coming up next, at least one man is missing after these catastrophic floods in mashld.

There is a frantic search for a military vet rang with the Maryland National guard. Herman who was not on duty at the time, slipped into the floodwaters while trying to help a woman save her cat, he was then swept away, he also served more than 10 years in the air force. So im joined now by joseph lopez, joe lopez, a long time friend of eddies, who served in the air force with him. Thank you so much for being with me. Hopefully we can help find your friend. You guys are in ellicott city, youre at this restaurant, its raining, the owner comes over and says, you have to move your car, then what laps zm. Like i said, the officer comes by, and says, we need you to move your cars. Theres a man made river behind the restaurant. And the water is running into that. So 10 or 15 people my friend eddie asked me if i thought i could do it, i told him, dont do that, forget it. About a half hour ago, we were barricading the door. So we go outside and this is kind of hard for me, im sorry. A lady has a cat carrier, she wants to leave, she goes out and she tried to cross the river, basically, its almost like at that point its a river running into a river. My friend eddie can go out there, he wants to help her, he grabs the cat carrier and were all yelling at limb to stop, come back. The current runs him into the river and he floats away. The river is raging at this point in time. You watch your friend float away as he runs into it to try to help this woman. I know you guys were in the air force together, youve known him for 21 years. You have heard nothing from him, how hopeful are you . Were all keeping up hope, he has a lot of friends. An amazing guy. Were all waiting. They wont let us they wont let anyone go down there. Its closed to the public, its tough to sit here and wait knowing you cant do anything about it. Canned even begin to imagine. Lets have you back on when you find your friend. Thank you. Lets return now to reporting from the Washington Post. One of Bobby Kennedys sons is questioning whether the man convicted of the 1968 killing is actually responsibility. He leaves a second gunman, not Sirhan Sirhan is the one who shot the fatal shots that killed his dad. He met with sirhan in prison, i went there because i was curious and disturbed by what i had seen in the evidence. I was disturbed that the wrong person might have been convicted of killing my father. My father was the chief Law Enforcement officer in this country. I think it would have disturbed him if somebody was put in jail for a crime they didnt commit. When you read all the details lads out in this Washington Post piece, the number of gunshots, the way Bobby Kennedy was facing in the kitchen. Well, as an historian, im an open minded is that many of the questions were raised in the early 1970s, and they led to a reexamination of the assassination in 1977. It was overseen or sponsored by the l. A. County. That examination looked at the following issues. First of all, was sir han sir han standing there . Rfk, a number of witnesses say rfk turned, turned to see ethel or the kitchen workers. Number two, the bullets, they recovered a number of bullets. There was a bullet recovered from rfks vertebrae, a. 22 caliber gun. There was no one else around rfk with a. 22 caliber gun, and it was clear it was from sir hans gun. He wrote a notebook. It was acquired by the prosecution, and he admitted it was his notebook, admitted writing the entries such as i want to kill Robert Kennedy, on june 5th, why . It was the First Anniversary of the 6day war, and he was selfradicalized and politicized what happened in palestine where he was born. You have motive. You have the fact that at least one of the bullets that hit Robert Kennedy came from his gun, and you have the fact that Robert Kennedy was probably turning around, explaining why he was hit in the back of the head. Now, why do people doubt this . Why would rfk sit with a man convicted of killing his father for hours i dont know. I will say that suffered through the tragedy, raised questions about this in the 1970s, and l. A. County, it was known as the crantz investigation, cbs raised issues at the time. Six years ago, a new recording appeared that had been made by a canadian journalist who just this journalist did not see the assassination, but he was walking behind the kennedy group. He recorded sounds. I have not listened to the raw tape. Its what ive heard is very muddy, but some people say they can hear 13 shots. Instead of the eight origi l originally recorded. Has the fbi done independence forensic analysis . I dont think so. Theres folks since the 70s believing theres a second gunman. Why believe it . Go back to the 70s. It was a paranoid period in our history. We are now in the most paranoid period since the 70s. It was movies like the conversation, why . Because we learned about cia assassination attempts on castro, went through watergate. Disappointed in the lays the government told us in the vietnam period. Understandably, americans had skepticism about the government. That was the era when a lot of the conspiracy thinking about jfk took root, mlk, and about rfk. In a sense, we revisited questions raised in the 70s. Question is, is there any new real evidence that could undermine the official account . So far, i have not seen any, and i think folks should think this way. The official count, many times is right, but at this point, theres an overwhelming amount of evidence that sir han sir han was a selfradicalized individual. Keep an open mind. If something comes out to change it, absorb it. So far, at least, i have not seen it. Rfk assassination plays a huge, huge role, honestly, in our cnn original series, 1968, so we wanted to talk about this. What some of you is new information, but the point, i hear you 100 loud and clear, that we saw how the case was tried, all the documentation several years ago, but, please, tune in, all two new episodes airing backtoback starting tonight at 9 00 p.
