Ukraine. Were going to go live to the white house in just a few minutes. This is all happening as a second whistleblower may be getting ready to file a separate formal complaint. The New York Times is reporting that another intelligence official has concerns over the president s interactions with ukraine, and the paper says this official has more direct knowledge of trumps july phone call with the leader of ukraine and they have spoken to the Inspector General to corroborate the details in the original complaint. Finally the Washington Post reporting the president s phone calls with foreign leaders, an anxiety ridden set of events for his staff who worry he will make promises he shouldnt keep. I want to go to cnns Kristen Holmes at the white house today. Speaking about ukraine, pompeo said today the state department was very focused, quote, at the direction of the president. Does anybody know what that means yet . Reporter okay, so im going to break this down because there was a lot going on in that pompeo press conference. Now, that line in particular, he was talking about the president s direction for a Good Relationship with ukraine, specifically talking about ambassador volker and how hard volker was working to make sure there was a solid relationship between ukraine and the United States. He went on to defend the fact that there was this investigation into the 2016 election. Remember that line from the call with ukrainian president where he talks about that. We know this is a theory that President Trump has pushed over and over again that some of this came out of ukraine, some of that interference came out of ukraine. But what pompeo didnt talk about was what is at the crux of this impeachment inquiry, which was the conversation asking for dirt on his political rival, joe biden, and his son, hunter biden. I do need to note that there is no evidence of any wrongdoing on either of their parts. So this is a very interesting way to defend a part of what is going on but not entirely the whole thing. As you mentioned, christi, he also talked about the fact that he missed that state department deadline, making a little bit of news. Take a listen. The state department sent a letter last night to congress which is our initial response to the document request. Well obviously do all the things were required to do by law. I was a member of congress once. Article 1 has a certain set of powers and article 2 has an obligation to make sure we protect officials at the state department. Reporter so obviously a little bit of news that they say they are going to eventually turn over those documents. Now, in terms of the white house subpoena, we have not heard whether or not they are going to comply. All weve heard so far is a press statement from the press secretary, essentially saying that these subpoenas change nothing and that this is more just democrats being political. Kristen, we also learned that mike pence, the Vice President , has been subpoenaed as well. Whats the word from his office . Reporter this is really interesting. We know that originally they had requested some documents. Now they have requested another round of documents, they being the three committees that are investigating conducting this impeachment investigation. The white house excuse me, the Vice President s office, they say that this is just not a serious request. They didnt even learn about it until after the media reports. But this is all surrounding that meeting last month in poland. You remember President Trump was supposed to meet with the president of ukraine. Instead he sent Vice President pence. Now these committees, they want to know, theyre interested in any role the Vice President might have had in communicating President Trumps messaging or his viewing s to ukraine. Thanks much. Congressional democrats are lining up witnesses for a busy week of hearings and may be hearing from one more person. The New York Times reporting a Second Intelligence officer is weighing whether to file a whistleblower complaint and potentially ultimately testify before congress. Cnns Shimon Prokupecz is with us now. Any idea as to what that potential second whistleblower is weighing to make that determination . I think its all about probably whether or not they can testify, whether or not their identity would somehow be compromised if they were to testify. Theres also concerns obviously about classified information. A lot of the lawyers here that are involved in representing certainly the whistleblower, the concern is obviously they need clearance in order to go ahead and have this allow their clients to make testimony and for these lawyers to be present during this testimony. So thats something thats going on. Certainly significant reporting from the New York Times that there may be potentially a second whistleblower. Whats significant about this person is that it backs up the initial whistleblower, the main whistleblower here that put all of this out there that started all of this. This second person apparently, according to testimony that was given yesterday by the Intelligence Community Inspector General, backs up the whistleblower. This is someone that they interviewed as well, the investigators there at the Inspector Generals office, they interviewed to get information from this person to back up some of the claims from the whistleblower. We dont know if we will ever hear from either one of these individuals publicly, but certainly that is still ongoing. Then you have other big moments here coming up this week. Of course theres always the unknown thats going to hit us and come out of nowhere, but there is one key person thats set to testify in a closed door proceeding on tuesday, and thats Gordon Sondland, hes the Eu Ambassador appointed by the president , longtime friend of the president. He was a donor to the president. And whats important with him is that there are Text Messages, also like weve seen with the person who testified yesterday, volker, there are Text Messages between them. There are Text Messages with sondland and a career diplomat where the career diplomat raises issues about the assistance, the security assistance, the money that ukraine was supposed to get, raising concerns that perhaps what the president was doing here by withholding some of this money was political, was because he wanted ukraine to investigate the whole thing with the bidens and other issues. Raising concerns that perhaps the president was doing this for political reasons. There are Text Messages where this happened. Certainly Gordon Sondland whos going to appear before the hill on tuesday before these members, thats going to be a key issue, something that they want to know. They have the Text Messages, so theyll be able to ask him a lot of questions about that. Thats right, shimon. Sondland responding call me to a question about whether the u. S. Was offering aid in exchange for these investigations. Thats all we have time for, Shimon Prokupecz, thanks so much. National politics reporter for the wall street journal and cnn political analyst as well as former white House Counsel to president clinton and jack quinn, thank you both for being with us, we appreciate it. I want to ask you, jack, about secretary pompeo. Hes missed three deadlines already and yet we hear from him today saying when hes in greece that the department will, quote, obviously do all the things we are required to do by law. Arent they required to hand over these documents . Yes, they are. I mean the subpoena is valid and congress has a right to demand this information. He clearly can be held in contempt if he doesnt if the information is not forthcoming. Now, congress has something called an inherent contempt power, which, by the way, if that involves the house of representatives, in order to execute on that by, for example, holding the individual to whom the subpoena is issued in contempt and then levying punitive measures in order to encourage the person subpoenaed to comply. You dont need the other body in the congress, that is to say the senate now, to participate in that decision. The house could do this on its own. So sabrina i wanted to ask you about these other subpoenas they have issued for acting chief of staff Mick Mulvaney as well as Vice President pence. What specifically do we know that they want the two of them to produce . Well, i think what democrats are trying to do now is put together a broader picture of from start to finish what the administrations efforts looked like in terms of applying pressure to ukraine to investigate one of the president s political rivals and try and further the president s own political motivations based on the allegations at hand. Who was involved in that effort, who had knowledge of that effort, and any attempts that may have been made by the administration to conceal those efforts. We already know based on the summary that the white house released of the president s call with his ukrainian counterpart that President Trump did repeatedly press president zelensky to investigate joe biden and his son, hunter biden, and he of course mentioned his personal lawyer, rudy giuliani. He even offered the assistance of his own justice department. Now its about not just corroboration but really understanding just what this entire potential effort looked like and who had knowledge of it. So i think that youre going to see escalating tensions of course with the administration not seeming to comply, and whether thats going to lead to contempt or whether it will be evidence for democrats as they try to build a case for obstruction. That remains to be seen. Certainly it seems at the moment both sides are bracing for a showdown as democrats issue these subpoenas and youve seen the president ratchet up his own rhetoric and try to rally republicans on capitol hill to his defense. I want to listen to matt gaetz, representative from florida. He was last hour on with Michael Smerconish and smerconish asked him what kind of precedent would it be to sit for a future election if the president s request for foreign assistance in his elections are normalized . Very important word there, normalized. Lets listen to what the representative had to say. You heard my commentary. What kind of a precedent would we be setting for future elections if the president s requests for foreign assistance in our elections is normalized . Well, i have to reject the premise of the question. I think that the president s context for these discussions isnt forward leaning into the next election. He is attempting to solicit ukraines support to find out what happened in the last election. Jack, whats your response to that . Well, you know, theyre saying that they want to look backwards and revisit the whole Mueller Investigation and so on. But thats not what this is really about. The president and his people are clearly most concerned about reelection. What they want to do here is make sure that the president gets reelected. Part of that was to get ukraine to participate in an investigation of the bidens. Thats the principal purpose here. The secondary benefit of their involving the ukrainians in terms of getting help and revisiting the 2016 election, i think thats mostly just smoke being blown at this whole thing in order to obscure what theyre really up to. But, you know, theres a side benefit there if they can somehow keep the process of discrediting mueller and his investigation moving forward. But the key thing here is what they are doing. Your question i think the heart of your question, and its critically important, is do we really want to permit, as happened in 2016, Foreign Countries to be involved in our election process, not just involved in our election process, but manipulating it, moving it in a different direction than the American People would otherwise choose. This happened in 2016. Theres no doubt about it. And its its unthinkable that we could have Foreign Countries, by the way surreptitiously, not out in the open when the American People donate money or go to the polls, this would be foreign governments operating behind the scenes under cover of night in order to manipulate the election process as part of a scheme to comply with what is going on, on our side here is extortion. We can be very gentle about it and say the president is prodding them to cooperate. He is extorting their involvement in this process. Sabrina and jack, im sorry were out of time. Thank you both so much. Appreciate you being here. After several days of speculation, it turns out it was more than just hard stents. It turns out senator Bernie Sanders had a heart attack this week. But his Campaign Says they will not keep him off the campaign trail. Hear his message to voters after he left the hospital. And new york Police Arrested a man they say went on a deadly rampage overnight. What were learning about four victims. And take a look at these live pictures from albuquerque, new mexico. This is the Albuquerque International balloon fiesta getting under way. More than 500 balloons set to light up the sky during the nineday event. Well take you there live. R 18a was in an accident. When i called usaa, it was that voice asking me, is your daughter ok . Thats where i felt relief. Were the rivera family and we plan to be with usaa for life. See how much you can save with usaa insurance. See how much you can save this is mias pulse. With pressure rising, and racing. This is also mias pulse. That her doctor keeps in check, so she can find balance. This is mias pulse, and now its more stable than ever. This is what medicare from Blue Cross Blue Shield does for mia. And with over 80 years of healthcare expertise, imagine what we can do for you. This is the benefit of blue. Its what gives audible theresmembers an edge. Ening; it opens our minds, changes our perspective, connects us, and pushes us further. The most inspiring minds, the most compelling stories audible. The Bernie Sanders campaign is confirming what many have suspected all week, that the 78yearold senator suffered a heart attack. Sanders left a las vegas hospital yesterday. He thanked the doctors and the nurses who helped him recover, but the question is will this affect his run for the presidency. Hello, everybody. We are in las vegas. I just got out of the hospital a few hours ago and im feeling so much better. I just want to thank all of you for the love and warm wishes that you sent to me. See you soon on the campaign trail. Cnns ryan nobles following this story. He looks great there, ryan. What are we hearing about his recovery . Well, i dont think theres any doubt that he does feel a lot better. Whenever youre dealing with a situation like this with your heart and you have two stents put in an artery that has a blockage of some sort, you can going to feel better. Im told that Bernie Sanders feels a whole lot better, that he was bouncing off the walls of his hospital room and he wanted to get back out on the campaign trail as soon as possible. But the campaign is taking a very cautious approach to this at this point. The only date that they have confirmed that sanders will take part in in terms of the Campaign Going forward is going to be at the debate, the cnn debate on october 15th, so thats about two weeks from now. Now, hes expected to head back to burlington, vermont, today. Thats of course his hometown where hes expected to take a step back, recover and recuperate and decide what comes next. I know this morning you spoke to a doctor from the Cleveland Clinic who talked about sanders prognosis and what it means for the campaign. Take a listen to that. Theres no reason why he cant fairly quickly, you know, get back to what hes doing. We know something about his disease. We know it was relatively limited. We know he got treatment very early, and the right treatment is to reopen the artery. So in the modern era, a heart attack is something you recover from fairly quickly. Now, of course theres two different conversations here that are taking place. Theres the Health Concerns and then there are the political concerns. As the doctor said, Bernie Sanders is likely to make a full recovery from this heart attack. He may need some sort of behavior modification, but he could go on to live a long life. But the political concern here is that he is a 78yearold man who has now suffered a heart attack. That is something that could make life difficult for him from a political perspective. But at this point, the Campaign Says they plan to move on as if Nothing Happened and that he is in this race for the long haul. The senator also staying on message very quickly after being released from the hospital, tweeting out that hes lucky that he had Good Health Care and everybody should have that access to health care. He tweeted medicare for all. Ryan nobles, thanks much. Thank you. So there are political ads, campaign signs, youve got rallies, youve got all kinds of things.

Lawmakers have been meeting with their constituents during recess to try to gauge Public Opinion on the impeachment process. New York Democratic congressman max rose held a town hall in brooklyn where he discussed his support for the inquiry. Rose represents a predominantly republican district in new york, so you have to ask how are his constituents responding to his position . Polo sandoval joins us now from new york. Polo, how are his constituents feeling about this . Its a tough position to be there, right . You have max rhodes, the last new york city congressman who had essentially been a holdout when it comes to deciding on whether or not to support this impeachment probe. But then this week a shift in that message as he basically added his name to the list of moderate democrats coming out supporting this impeachment probe and hes not alone. Its a change of heart for some moderate democrats in congress who at one point refused to go anywhere near the word impeachment. I have not been supportive of an impeachment inquiry up until now. Michigan congresswoman Elissa Slotkins announcement got a not so warm response. The most powerful man in the world reached out to a foreigner, a foreign leader, and asked him to dig up dirt on an american. Not true. Not true. Impeachment also on the mind of constituents in max rhodes district. Its the one red spot in new york city. We need to emphasize that this is a sad and tragic day for the United States of america. Reporter at a friday night town hall, the democratic lawmaker took questions about his recent decision to back impeachment. We are going to push and push and push so we make sure that we are holding this white house to a standard. His district includes staten islands richmond county. Its the only county in new york city that voted for donald trump in 2016. Despite that, there was little evidence of any broad anger at the town halls this week, even among nondemocrats like roy russo. I think thats a political thing that he just almost has to do because hes a freshman congressman. I dont know how he can go otherwise. Its a Political Party and he has to support it. It doesnt affect my thinking of him or my opinion about the impeachment. While many of his constituents say impeachment is not a top priority, it is for democrats like rose. He has a message for congressional republicans. They can go some semblance of political courage and integrity as we seek to get to the bottom of what seems to be a serious issue of corruption and national security. And rose told me that hes very well aware there are many in his constituency he believes will be upset by the decision that he made this week, but he also said hes very well aware, to use his own words, there are many that will be elated by this news. Ultimately, though, he says that hes confident that this will not distract many in his constituency when it comes to some of the more local issues. All right. Polo sandoval, good to see you. Thank you. Thanks. Joining us now to discuss all of this is jason stanley. Hes the author of how propaganda works. Good morning, jason, thanks for joining us. Certainly a timely conversation to have with you. You wrote about the theory of how propaganda works. What were seeing play out right now in real life between democrats and republicans carving and framing their narratives, not just theory. So how critical is propaganda amid this impeachment inquiry . Its very critical. Now, we must bear in mind that the u. S. Government has always lied to its citizens. The iraq war, the financial crisis, its not the lying thats new. But whats distinctive and new right now is baldfaced lying. The president is not lying as the philosopher says. The president s supporters know the things he is saying are untruths. The president is baldfaced lying because hes trying to place himself at the center of a reality drama of us versus them, where its about winning or losing, its not about the truth. And thats something we have to resist. Now, jason, some would say, supporters of the president would say that he speaks a truth that the press and that the left simply doesnt understand. Is that indicative of his use of propaganda or is that simply a deeper problem in the culture itself . Its both because weve had a division of our Information Space. So people just get information from one source, and they dont trust other sources. But its not really trust. We find 40 or so, a large group of republicans who are denying that biden was ever mentioned in the ukraine transcript. So the Information Space is corrupted beyond that. I believe that many of trumps supporters know that what hes saying are false that hes uttering untruths, but they think it doesnt matter because the truth doesnt matter. What the president has done is hes destroyed the Information Space so everyone thinks its just us versus them. Its just democrats versus republicans. And what we have to return to is a focus on whats true and whats not. So how does the media do that . I mean if there are so many outlets, if hes destroyed the Information Space by spreading misinformation, how do we then go about that . Well, i think not representing this as a democrats versus republicans thing, not representing it as a political thing, focusing on the facts saying this was in this transcript. The president is denying it, not representing this as a political battle between us versus them. We know from history that totalitarian regimes set things up so its all a spectacle, all a game between them and us. We have to avoid that and we have to return the Information Space to one where people are focusing on whats true and whats not and they leave the partisan battles to one side for the moment. Easier said than done. Jason stanley, thank you so much for the time this morning. Thank you. President trump is tweeting to one person in particular that you may think of as an unlikely target of some of his latest attacks. New this hour, the president has an awful lot to say this morning about mitt romney. The first of two tweets reads this. Somebody please wake up mitt romney and tell him that my conversation with the ukrainian president was a continual and very appropriate one and my statement on china pertained to corruption, not politics. If mitt worked this hard on obama, he could have won. Sadly, he choked. That was followed by a second tweet insulting the senator saying that hes bad for republicans. Our panel with us today. Former Democratic Party chairman scott bolden and talk radio host john phillips. Gentlemen, thank you both for being here. Good morning. Good morning. Good morning to you. How does this help the Republican Party . Well, and i thought the coffee was going to be the best part of waking up in the morning. Im waiting, john, come on. Making sure youre woken up. Lets just get started. Well, this is all about mitt romney kicking tires on a White House Run and the president of course is responding to that via his favorite means, which is twitter, although i dont think he has anything to worry about with mitt romney. Mitt romney is a guy who was scared out of the last race by jeb bush, low energy jeb, and now hes thinking about getting back in now that hes in the u. S. Senate. President trump is more popular among republicans certainly than mccain or george w. No republican is going to give him any problems in the primary, but it is nice to see him going off on twitter. Hey, scott bolden, do you agree with that . Its entertainment, pure entertainment. I think mitt romney is not worried about losing his seat on the senate because hes got a strong base in utah. I think hes a strong moral voice that we need in the gop. It will be interesting to see how many will follow versus to continue to support a president that has put his political interests in a foreign country ahead of american interests. And while we were joking earlier, this is very serious. I know john knows its very serious. But more mitt romneys, if they stand up like a few other senators, will understand that this is not only serious but our american democracy is at risk and thats no laughing matter. I want to ask you about some of the other news thats making headlines this morning. House Foreign Affairs committee aide telling cnn that secretary pompeo again missed yesterdays subpoena deadline to turn over documents. Secretary pompeo has been in the house for six years. He served in the house. He understands the role of congressional oversight, john. So what are what can committees do at this point, and why would he not cooperate . Well, adam schiff seems to have a different revelation every day. It was the whistleblower, then it turns out he was talking to, now i guess theres a second one that hes inferring is going to come out and say some stuff very soon. And this is this is a situation where if they had the goods, they would put them out there and they would show it. Cut out the middle man, cut out all of these people. Its adam schiff is the one whos doing the talking and putting the words in everyones mouth as this ventriloquist. Come out and tell us what you got so we can look at it and move on. Let me ask you this, though. Today in greece, the secretary of state said that in terms of releasing these documents that the state department focused, quote, at the direction of the president. So is the president telling him not to release these documents . Of course the president im sorry, go ahead. Go ahead. John, go ahead. Well, well find out in due time. I mean this is what happens with the separation of powers. Theyll investigate. Ultimately we will find out. But again, if they had a smoking gun, if they had a quid pro quo, if they had something, they wouldnt be implying it, they would be out there waving it on live television. Christi, we are out there waving it. We got the quid pro quo. Weve got the memo in trumps own words. We have the texts that have been disclosed. We have the intelligence and diplomacy community that are cooperating. We may have a potentially second whistleblower who was the corroborator for the first whistleblowers complaint to the Inspector General. And so we are waving it and we are doing investigations and we are going down the impeachment road and you know what . If the state department doesnt want to cooperate, if no agency wont cooperate, if the white house wont cooperate, add it to an obstruction charge. They have got enough documents and enough witnesses already. Proceed laserlike to impeachment and then put the gop on the senate and put donald trump and our american democracy on trial before the senate. And i hope that the gop will come to their senses and vote for american democracy and not for this president. Okay, so heres the thing, scott. You say that they have enough evidence. Do democrats have enough money . And heres why i ask this. Lets take a look at some of the fundraising numbers here. Because President Trump is killing it when it comes to fundraising numbers. I think hes up to 125 million compared to the highest democrat who has, i believe its 25 million. So, john or scott, how do democrats compete with that economically . Are there still too many people, i suppose, that are in the field and at what point do you reach a sense of urgency that, hey, we have to whittle this field down so we can focus this money. I think by december or january the field will be whittled down based on the process for whos appearing in the debates. Thats the first thing. Secondly, if you look at the amount of money all of the democratic president ial candidates are raising, its a lot of money. The republican the gop as well as the trump, certainly because theyre the incumbent and they have that 40 who are diehard gop and trump fans, they certainly are going to outraise the democrats for now. But in totality theres a lot of interest in all of these democratic candidates. When you whittle the field down and the dnc starts to support that one candidate and then we start doing joint fundraising, i think the numbers if they dont even out, it doesnt matter because money doesnt win elections, connecting to voters and voters win elections. They have got a great the dems have a great message. Trump, every time he opens his mouth, ive got to tell you, it helps the democrats and their voting base. I apologize that we have run out of time, gentlemen. Scott bolden and john phillips, we appreciate you so much. Thank you. Thank you. Still to come, a potential phone hacking scandal involving prince harrys voice mail. Details ahead. First, though, after several initial failures, a device designed to clean up plastic floating in the ocean is finally working. This weeks mission ahead looks at the challenges of designing this system and why we should all care about the plastic thats in our waters. What we see here are actually the stomach contents of a single sea turtle that was found dead two years ago. This was all in one sea turtle . One sea turtle. There are approximately 150 million tons of plastic in the worlds oceans. And a recent uk report predicts that that number will triple in the next decade. Only if we go out there and clean it up, this amount of plastic is going to go down. How . Its an almost 2,000footlong floating pipe with a net hanging below. Winds and waves help create a funnel to catch plastics. Every few months a boat brings the collected plastic back to shore. This was deployed to much fan fare in 2018 but it failed to collect and remain the plastic. Since then, the team has added a parachute to slow it down and a cork line to prevent it from going over the top of the pipe. Now the new systemes working. Critics have worried about the systems effect on marine life. We dont have anything that can entangle marine life. The current flows underneath it and the plastic which floats will remain in front of the system. The ultimate goal, to clean up 90 of Ocean Plastic by the year 2040. Back in the day people said theres no way to clean it up. The best we can do is not make it worse but to me thats a very uninspiring message. Everybody wants a future better than the present. Thats what we hope to achieve with this cleanup. If you have moderate to thsevere rheumatoid arthritis, month after month, the clock is ticking on irreversible joint damage.

Prince harry is suing the owners of uk tabloid newspapers, the sun and the daily mirror for allegedly hacking into his. Phone. This after meghan sued the mail saying it illegally published a private letter to her father. Cnns anna stewart has more. Reporter its just days since meghan, the dutchess of sussex, had lead proceedings against the sun for allegedly publishing a private letter to her father and now prince harry has filed new claims. Buckingham palace has confirmed it regards the illegal interception of voice mail messages. The Parent Company of the sun confirmed they have received a claim and the mirror is aware of the proceedings but hasnt received notification. Both have declined to comment on the allegations at this time. The big question here is when did this alleged voice mail interception take place. Does it date back to the socalled hacking scandal of 20052006, the hacking of royal and celebrity phones, and engulf those newspapers as well as the now defunct news of the world. This resulted in charges and even jail time for some journalists. As well as the multimillion dollar inquiry into press standards by lord leverson. Prince harrys decision to sue papers comes days after his wifes and his extraordinary and emotional statement on the tabloid press in which he criticized the double standards, he said, of a specific press pack which gave positive coverage of their recent trip in africa and of his wife but they villified her for the last nine months. It feels like the first shots of a new royal battle against the british media. Anna stewart, cnn, london. Now heres something a bit more uplifting.
