Closely, and, you know if nothing else this is a conference that will let people know about it because people will watch what were saying and parents will be a lot tougher with respect to their children. The president also spoke about the dramatic departure of his Third National security adviser john bolton saying that bolton made mistakes and had trouble getting along with others. Frankly, he wanted to do things, not necessarily tougher than me. Johns known as a tough guy. Hes so tough he got us into iraq. Thats tough. And but hes somebody that i actually had a very Good Relationship with, but he wasnt getting along with people in the administration that i consider very important, and i hope we weve left in good stead, but may we havent. Maybe we havent. I have to run the country the way here running the country. Were doing very well. Were respected all over the world again. Straight to our cnn White House CorrespondentKaitlan Collins and on his comments onoa tough guy and then totally threw him under the the former Nation Security adviser in there, too, made 16 months ago in the president s eyes through those negotiations with north korea about denuclearization into a mess. Something the president brought up repeatedly in the oval office today. But we were set back very badly when john bolton talked about the libyan model, and he made a mistake. And as soon as he mentioned that the libyan model, what a disaster. Take a look at what happened to gadhafi with the libya model, and hes using that to make a deal with north korea, and i dont blame kim jongun for what he said after that, and he wanted nothing to do with john bolton. And thats not a question of being tough. Thats a question of being not smart to Say Something like that. Reporter so, brooke, talking about the north korean the highly fended and critical and the president was talking about it was overthrown and killed a few years after agreeing to abandon his Nuclear Ambitions but he made that Statement Last april and the president kept him around. The president did not accompany him when he visited the denuclearized zone but the president clearly irked by the comments made when he was the National Security adviser. Move off bolton. He also made news on the controversy surrounding the noaa statement, repudiating those scientists who contradicted trump on the whole dorian forecast, a k a sharpiegate. What did he say . Reporter not long before that Oval Office Meeting the New York Times reported the president s chief of staff Mick Mulvaney called wilbur ross and needed them to get noaa to issue the statement rebuking their own National Weather services fracting thfract i forecasts that noaa would not be impacting alabama in any way. That came after the president was furious rebuked, widely rebuked after claimed alabama would be in the path of the storm, long after forecasts assured people in alabama, no, the state would not be affected by that storm. Kaitlan, thank you very much for the updates from the white house. Going back to the headline from the president on vaping. As trump says his administration will look to ban flavored ecigarettes and the American Lung association joined a host of agencies urging people especially teenagers to stop using them. There have now been at least six deaths and hundreds of cases of lung illness possibly linked to vaping. Erica sward, assistant Vice President of National Advocacy for the national Lung Association is with me. Thank you so much. I mean, you just heard the president. Thats significant news. Your reaction to that . Absolutely. The american lug Association Welcomes the president s announcement about the plan to remove all flavored ecigarettes from the marketplace. The one association thats been calling on congress and fda to remove all flavored Tobacco Products from the marketplace, because we know that the only reason these candy and fruit flavors are out there is to attract kids and make the poison go down more smoothly. How did we even get here . If ecigarettes are that dangerous, how did they even get approved for sale . Well, they havent been aproorch approved and thats something most people dont realize. They came on the market about a decade ago, imported online from china, and from there they were pretty much allowed to remain on the market as we waited for fda to take action on them. It took both the obama and the Trump Administrations a long time to do that. In the meantime, we saw Companies Making claims that were unproven left and right and a whole other generation of kids getting addicted to tobacco as a result. Okay. Why this warning just to go cold turkey and why did it take so long to sound the alarm . The American Lung association has been sounding the alarm for a long time and were so thankful to hear the president s announcement and really look forward to reading details about the guidance, but the American Lung association wants to urge everyone not to use ecigarettes. If you are trying to quit smoking for good, we want you to use something that has been approved by the fda, and the Lung Association can help you quit. As can 1800quitnow. Its important to recognize and for parents and for schools to recognize that they need to talk to kids about the dangers of these products. It is simply not safe to inhale these chemicals into your lungs, whether its a nicotine or a thc or cbt compound. You only want to inhale clean air into your lungs. Hmm. What, then, should doctors be discussing with their patients about the use of ecigarettes . Should people who vape who havent had any problems get checked out . Whats your recommendation . Clearly if anyone is having symptoms, shortness of breath or chest pain in some cases g. I. Symptoms immediately talk to their before, but if its severe enough they should go to the emergency room right away. But people should also talk to their providers about what they might do to end their use of all ecigarettes, and its important that especially as we continue to wait for the state and local Health Departments and cdc to make the determination about what is sickening people in this kind of current outbreak, that no one use ecigarettes, and its also important for fda to regulate these products moving forward, and to remove them from the marketplace until they have gn through fda review. Okay. Erika sward, thank you so much. For joining me. Thank you. Every day you wake up a new vaping story there.

Breaking news in the trial of a woman accused of intruding at maralago, the president ial resort. A verdict reached. The verdict which is guilty, two counts. Bizarre trial only lasted about two days, but heres what she basically did and what the jury found her guilty are. Trespassing on maralago considered and area because of the president and his family goes there, so protected by secret service so its a federal charge of trespassing and also when fbi, the actual secret Service Agents questioned what she was doing on the property, the jury found she lied about why she was there. Didnt she get past the front desk . Yes. Past the receptionist, there for a pool day they thought. She use add name that matched someone else that belonged to the club and then when she got to the second set of screeners, secret Service Agents and officers there began noticing strange behavior from her. She was wearing what they called an evening dress basically. It was 1 00 in the afternoon. To go to the pool. To go to the pool. A lot of bizarre behavior. Whats been most interesting about this i think, we really dont know much about her. The government has chosen not to bring any kind of evidence into the case to really explain what she was doing there. They filed some evidence under seal leading certainly some to suspect she perhaps may have been a spy there operating on behalf of the chinese government, because some of the things that the government sealed, they now have under seal at evidence, the judge and the government said, well, its because of National Security interests we need to not make some of this public, strategically, the government did not charge her of any crimee evidence how they obtained information about her and what she was doing there. Keep in mind, in her hotel room, staying at a local hotel room found about 8,000 in cash and spy equipment. Actually found a gadget, a device, that can detect hidden cameras. Of course, raised all sorts of questions. So bizarre. She chose to represent herself. Had an interpreter. Barely asked any questions. She didnt even do a closing argument. So certainly not a very difficult case for prosecutors to present. This jury started deliberating at 9 30 this morning and 1 30 just as they got their lunch, right after lunch, came back with a verdict. I still think theres a lot of questions here that need to be answered about who she is, but clearly the government choosing not to get into that for probably very specific reasons here. Okay. I think well hear more about her from you. Thank you very much for the update there. He is one of the nfls biggest and most controversial stars and now patriots Antonio Brown accused of rape.

Tomorrow evening may be the third democratic debate for president , but offers a first for the 2020 race, because the two frontrunners, joe biden and Elizabeth Warren, will be facing off standing sidebyside. So this is the podium positioning on your screen. Former Vice President a showing some of his cards in these hours ahead of this tencandidate event in houston, texas. Biden advise other said, i expect youll see biden echo an important point made during last weeks climate forum. We need more than plans pap presidepap that comment appears to be a bit of a strike against senator warrens known strategy of having a plan for just about every policy issue and the massachusetts senator gave a preview how shell counter biden after asked about biden saying, we need more plans. This is her response. Well, i think that we start with a plan, and then we get out there and fight for it. To me, thats what being president is all about. Its about laying those plans out and showing the direction for this country, and then getting in the fight, leading the fight and bringing people along. In the meantime, two other competitors may have start add deba debate on their own. Discovered they were on the same flight. Buttigieg tweeted, very funny, and the debate begins. Good sitting by you, pete buttigieg, to be on that flight. And our plit director would have totally geeked out, is geeking out, the fact theyll stand next to each other tomorrow night. Biden is taking her on and we need more than plans. Is that a risky strategy because theres a lot of love for Elizabeth Warren and her plans . Its more than taking on she has a plan for everything. Two other candidates on either side. Sanders and warren, he has to contend with. What is clear if you heard him at the climate change, hear what strategists saying he wants to make the point he is going to also offer Progressive Solutions that can also get passed. The contrast he wants to draw. Says having plans in not enough, you have to be able to enact them. The contrast, you heard Elizabeth Warren statement there, fight, fight. I want to be a fighter. A fighter. Like an energy contrast shes trying to draw with joe biden is how i see it. She wants to show this constant desire to be in the fight to actually enact those plans. His point is, we cant just be pie in the sky. Right . We have to put forward stuff we can actually get across. The contrast to watch for tomorrow night. New polls sure to give a tailwind to democrats. Throw them up on the screen. 0 percen 60 of voters dont think trump deserves reelection. Good news not just for biden. Tell me about this. 60 number is chilling for trump folks and astonishing, because its remarkably consistent over the last couple years in polling. Look back two years ago, thats where donald trump was. Hes not, hasnt solved that problem yet to get to where majority of the country wants a second trump term. But youre right. The washington post, be po abc news poll matched up, four of the five bested him in numbers and joe biden gets another credential here to be able to sell the democratic voters, which is he beats trump in this poll 55 40. Not that thats what the election will be 14 months from now. Not what the poll is, but for joe biden to say now to democrats i am the safest choice to defeat donald trump and i know thats priority number one for you, but i think its also while you hear the likes of cory booker and Elizabeth Warren telling democrats dont go with the safe choice. That wont create the energy we need at democrats to defeat donald trump. A divide we see playing out on the campaign trail. David chalian, thank you for setting that up.

Headlines for the nfl not so good. Star wide receiver Antonio Brown facing rape and Sexual Assault allegations after a federal lawsuit is filed in florida late tuesday. Britney taylor a woman who went to college with brown later worked as his trainer alleges that brown sexually assaulted her not once but twice, first in june of 2017 and raped her in may of 2018. Browns Attorney Says his client denies each and every allegation in this lawsuit, and his agent talked to espn just a short time ago. Antonio and i both strongly believe that these allegations are very serious. In no way do we condone any type of illegal conduct, misbehavior. None of that happened here. Okay. In light of all the turmoil surrounding Antonio Brown ill repeat Jason Carroll is cnns National Correspondent outside of the stadium there in foxborough, massachusetts. Jason, we know brown just signed with the pats after a dramafilled 48 hours and we know coach Bill Belichick talked about this earlier. What did he say . Reporter he did. At first we should point out, brooke, brown for his part, Antonio Brown, was actually out at practice today. The patriots are saying, look, taking this one day at a time. Its clear at this point that browns future with the team is uncertain. Simply because the patriots again are waiting to see about this outcome of this investigation that the league is doing and they said theyre taking these allegations very seriously, but Bill Belichick as you know is a man of very little words and today no exception when we tried to press him more about these allegations his star white risher is facing basically heres what he had to say. First of all, with Antonio Brown what has he said to you . Im done with that. Okay . Anything else on miami . Any other questions . Can you explain being done with it . Trying to find out if he said anything to you about the allegations . I just answered that question. I dont actually think you did. Actually i didid. Wow. Reporter Britney Taylor saying that Antonio Brown sexually assaulted her in 2017. Raped her allegedly she said in 2018. She released a statement that says in part she kept this to herself for a long period of time because she says of the shame she faced. She turned to her religion, was finally able to come forward. She says speaking out removes the shame i have felt for the past year, and places it on the person responsible for my rape. Also youve heard from the Antonio Brown camp, and they are denying all of these allegations, basically you heard from his agent there who says this is a money grab. Thats why he says this civil suit is being filed at this time. We have a statement from browns attorney which says in part mr. Brown denies each and every allegation in the lawsuit. He will pursue all legal remedies to not only clear his name but also protect other professional athletes against false accusations. His attorney, brooke, leaves open the possibility that he might countersue. So this might turn into a he said she said. Meantime, you have Antonio Brown back out on the field but, again, his future with the patriots very uncertain. All right. Jason, thank you very much, and for trying to get something out of belichick there as well. Antonio browns road to the patriots hasnt exactly been the smoothest. Brown just signed with new england on saturday after being released by the Oakland Raiders following what can only be described as a tumultuous offseason. We even had to make a full sdreen fit it all in. Right . Helmet disputes, fines by the team, confrontations and aid apologies. What do they do now . Cut him, suspend him, play him. A sports columnist, wrote an opinion piece. Antonio brown is becoming the worst thing to happen to the nfls 100th season. Incredibly serious allegations not likely to go away soon. What is the next move for the patriots . Reporter theyre kind nf a holding pattern, brooke. Theres not a lot they can do until the nfl investigation is complete. One of the things i thought most telling, when rosenhaus, his agent spoke today, already in touch with the nflpa, players association, union. They would file a grievance if they suspend or patriots try to cut brown. Trying to send a message that no action can be taken immediately, and nothing can be done unless there is an investigation already done. Do you think, do you have any idea, if the steelers, the raiders, the pats knew anything about this ahead of time . Thats a really good question. Rosenhaus was asked that and so was Bill Belichick. Neither would answer it, which given the you know, the history of both of these guys, whether its rosenhaus or Bill Belichick and the patriots, they dont do anything without having a lot of forethought. I would be surprised that they didnt know about it. Like i said, telling to me neither would answer that question. Uhhuh. The league had big plans for the 100th season. Now Roger Goodell, commissioner, needs to be ready to answer some of these tough questions. How is the league likely to respond . Reporter well, they said they are going to investigate the allegations and the lawsuits, and when that is done, and britney has said she would cooperate with this investigation. So they cant do anything and wont do anything until that investigation is done which will be several weeks from now, but anywhere Roger Goodell goes, anything, you know, any kind of display they try and make with the 100th anniversary this is hanging over them and not going away anytime soon. As it hangs and as theyre investigating, belichick just said that brown is supposed to practice with the team. There is a game sunday. Right . Against miami. Does he play . Reporter thats a great question. I think unless the nfl comes out says theyll put him on the commissioners exempt list, an option, i dont know they have any choice not to, any choice but to play him unless they would less him dress and just not use him, but Bill Belichick has not really cared about propriety or image or anything like that in the past and i dont think hes going to change right now. Thank you very much. This just in to us here at cnn. Iconic oil man and Energy Executive t. Boone pickens has died.

The move comes in the midst ap long standing rocky relationship between trump and californian officials. President criticized the states homeless crisis in the past calling it disgusting and a disgrace to the country. What are you hearing from local officials about this White House Mission . Reporter well, hi, brooke. First of all what you see here on the streets behind me in San Francisco is a common sight. Tents here in the middle of the sidewalk. Brooke, i have to tell you, chronicling this homeless issue many months and spent time with a person whos been documenting the issue including images up on this twitter feed. You see is disturbing and took us on a neighborhood tour. Its home to some of the Biggest Companies in the world. Take a look. What was once just a microcosm in a small area has spread tremendously. Reporter were on the streets of a San Francisco neighborhood called soma, short for south of market, toke to tech giants lie uber, google. For a few years, adam, a local Restaurant Owner documenting the citys homelessness problem. Reporter it doesnt feel like were in america right now . Its like thirdworld squalor. Reporter its a problem spiraling out of control not just in San Francisco but in california. In los angeles tents line entire city blocks. Numbers are staggering. Nearly 60,000 homeless in l. A. County. A 12 rise in just one year. Everywhere i go people are outraged, theyre angry about whats happened or not happening on the streets. Its no longer a coastal issue. It is defining the state of california. Reporter no matter when locale you hear about the same problems. Skyrocketing rents, not enough shelter beds or Mental Health services and rampant drug use exacerbated by the nations opioid addiction. How many times a day are you shooting up . On a good day actually, no. On a good day, less times probably than on a bad day. Reporter back in San Francisco, these images shot directly next to one of the most wellknown courthouses.

Shes added more than 400 beds, helped 1,600 people exit homelessness and cracked down on tent encampments but resident, tourists and work woulders alike continue to see the problems daily.

Adam who helps many people he encounters with food a few bucks or just conversation says hes embarrassed to have his out of town relatives come for a visit. Its one thing on television. One thing in the movies. But this is real life. And real life San Francisco, the streets are really, really tough. Really tough right now. Reporter and, brooke, you asked how local leaders feel about what the president has been saying. I have to tell one issue defining the problem theyre in agreement, because everyone agrees the problems on the streets, it just simply is appalling and the problem is getting worse. For every person they get into Supportive Housing another three wind up on the street. A catch 22 and feels unsolvable. Everybody tells you comes down to housing. Its just too expensive to live here. Get this. One median apartment, median prirs, 3,500 just to get a roof over your head. You havent got an meal or any food or clothing. Its just a terrible problem.
