Trump. The tape confirms a yearlong affair with President Trump. The team denied the affair and knowledge of payment. Now theyre saying they didnt know about the payment until learning about it in the recorded conversation. At the same time while state and Defense Department leaders are defending the putin visit to washington, moscow putting its own spin on what happened at that oneonone meeting in helsinki. Cnn has teams covering the story around the world. Senior International Correspondent sam kiley and sarah westwood. Sarah is near the opinipresiden golf club. Good morning. Reporter good morning. President trump is back in the headlines for his dealings during the campaign. Michael cohen, his longtime lawyer and fixer again making trouble for trump thanks to a newly unearthed recording that is in possession of the fbi. On the tape cohen and trump can be heard discussing the prospect of making a payment to karen mcdougal, the former playboy model, alleged to have an affair with President Trump long before he took office. Ultimately, mcdougal signed a contract with american media, inc. Ami owns the National Enquirer and other publications and whose ceo is a personal friend of President Trumps. Rudy giuliani, President Trumps attorney, has downplayed that agreement between ami and mcdougal, describing it as nothing more than a nondisclosure agreement and saying that trump and cohen were discussing that deal on the brief tape. This is obviously troublesome for the white house, not only because President Trump and his team have previously denied that President Trump had knowledge of that deal between mcdougal and ami, but because there are apparently other recordings that cohen made of his former client, President Trump, that are in possession of the fbi. And while trumps team is trying to downplay the significance of those other recordings, it does raise questions about what else cohen might have inadvertently provided to the fbi, as well as how much President Trump did know about the deal that ultimately silenced mcdougal. Sarah westwood in berkeley heights. Thank you very much. Senior International Correspondent sam kiley is live for us in moscow now. Sam, good morning to you. Help us understand what the russians are saying about the summit. Reporter lets go back to the beginning and look at how they characterized it coming out with sergei lavrov, the Russian Foreign minister, calling it magnificent and better than super. Talk about a positive spin, that was a reaction that could be imagined had world peace been declared, particularly coming from his, statesmanlike at his most effusive. After that the russians tried to take control of the narrative as washington started to question the behave and relationship between the two president s suggesting that there had been unspecified really cooperation on broad security matters, notably in terms of terrorism, no great controversy there necessarily. And then cyber, highly controversial idea given that it is cyber hacking that is alleged to have affected the American Election and has affected other european political processes. Then recently in the last 48 hours, theres been suggestions coming from the russian side that a deal was in the making over syria, the repatriation of Syrian Refugees back into syrian territory. Again, potentially setting up a friction inside washington because, of course, the washington position in terms of the administration is that there will be no repatriation into areas controlled by the assad regime which, of course, is backed by russia. And then another suggestion the last 24 hours that theres been some kind of potential, bloombergs been reporting, an agreement to at least think about having a referendum in eastern ukraine. Again, anathema completely to the United States officially and her allies with a suggestion that donald trump might be considering to keep it quiet. Thats been rejected by the white house, but its all about the russians controlling the narrative. Almost appearing to do the Public Relations on behalf of donald trump to suggest that something substantive was discussed. But all coming really from an entirely russian perspective. Makes you wonder if the white house is going to be forced to Say Something else, something otherwise. Appreciate you being here. Thank you. Lets start there. Joining me errol lewis, cnn political commenttor and anchor for spectrum news. Michael moore, former district for the district of georgia, and National Military analyst. Welcome to you all. Errol, let me start with you where sam left off there. Russia is controlling the narrative here about the potential fruits of the summit in helsinki when the president s team doesnt fully know what was discussed or agreed to. Yeah, it is startling to hear the director of national intelligence, dan coates, say hes not entirely clear what went on during those two hours. To not have been briefed, to not be aware of it. Another wrinkle, by the way, is that u. S. Intelligence agencies, if theyre doing their job diligently, are going to try and hack and crack the secrets of the russian side, and they may learn indirectly what theyre saying internally in the kremlin about what went on in that meeting. Theyll end up hearing through russia what their own commander in chief was talking about, putting the intelligence agencies in a tricky situation. This is part of why the unorthodox style of the president which so many of his supporters like has its downsides. It can create a lot of confusion and people working across purposes. Rebecca, i read your notes to my producers. It seems that you think that the summit in helsinki was a win for the president. I think it was important for trump and putin to meet. Heres my longtime concern about russia their economy is the size of canadas. Russias on a slow downward spiral, nuclear weapons. Im in favor of trump and putin continuing to talk about nuclear arms and, honestly, we need their caption Going Forward with north korea. I their discussions Going Forward with north korea. What do you think about the proposed summit in washington in the fall . I am in favor of putin coming to washington. Remember, he visited kennebunkport with the bushes in 2007. Of course, that was before what went on in ukraine. He visited versailles and france last year. Again, this is a longterm strategic problem. Russia is a borderline failed state. We have to find a way for our American Security long term to deal with that potential threat. Its unpleasant dealing with putin, but im in favor of trump continuing to talk about ukraine, syria, and especially nuclear weapons. Even in the midst of the midterm elections after more than two dozen russians have been indicted in an interference campaign, an attack on the u. S. , that the Intelligence Community says that putin directed . We shouldnt expect putin to back off. Hes going to continue with the propaganda and interference like he does in so many countries. Homeland security is helping us secure our elections. The talks should go ahead. Its risky, but if putin is showing signs that hes willing to talk about some of the Longterm Nuclear arms agreements, inf, space, missile defenses, and new start, i dont want to lose the opportunity. Negotiations take a long time. Took seven years to conclude the inf treaty. Lets get talks started and keep them going even if its during the election cycle. Willing to talk, but will he bring things to fruition . Michael, sources tell cnn the president s legal team, that they are a bit concerned about the president as a sympathetic figure moving forward in the context of the Mueller Investigation. Hes calling it a witch hunt, a rigged investigation, after his performance in helsinki. Justified . I think so. This has not been a good week for the president. Any time you wrap up the week with i recording that you had a discussion with your lawyer that theres perhaps some type of improper activity now recorded on tape, its another thing in the avalanche of events that is happening to attack the credibility of the president and this administration. I think thats the fear the team has Going Forward. You have sort of a sympathetic trump whos there fawning over putin in helsinki, and now were talking about what he may have known or done in the election and whether or not that played in, whether or not there was outside influence there. Its not been a good week. I think their concerns are justified. At some point, hes going to have to stand up. I disagree with rebecca on this. Sometimes not having the nations numberone enemy in washington is not just a signal to that leader but also a signal to our allies and friends that we take the threat seriously. And there are ways to have talks at a lower level rather than bringing putin to the palace, if you will. Errol, let me bring that to you. Republicans and democrats on the hill have said that putin will not be welcome there, he will not be welcome at the capitol. There will be no joint address to the house and senate. Will they go a step further . I mean, this is another iteration of, well, i wouldnt have said it the way the president would have said it. Will they take it a step further more than saying he cant come to the senate . Its startling. We know that polls suggest that the Republican Base likes what the president did in helsinki. Theyre okay with that. To the extent that congress reflects the wishes of their voters, theyre going to feel the same way. Members are starting to step forward. There was an rnc retreat recently, and folks are stepping forward and saying they like what happened. That, you know, maybe its not so bad. That the russian president , i would call him a dictator, but the russian dictator is welcome, and what and that we should have conversations with him. The cross purposes are startling. In this same week we have the department of defense saying 200 million will be allocated for ukraine to fight off the russian separatists, the prorussian separatists. Its really remarkable that we cant get one story and stick to it about where this country stands with regard to the russian dictator, his interference with our elections, global attacks on human rights. Hard to imagine that we would have reached this point. I dont expect the congressional leadership to resolve it any time soon. You brought up ukraine, and rebecca, you said its a good thing that this be reintegrated into the world economy, and even welcomed back to the g7, making the g8. And of course russia was expelled after the illegal annexation of crimea. What about the consequence for violating ukraines sovereignty . If you welcome them back, bygones are bygones, and you move out without consequence for that. Right. Back into the Global Economy long term is my point. Im glad to see the lethal aid to ukraine something that the Obama Administration didnt do, that includes antitank weapons. We do a lot of nonlethal aid, and we have u. S. Forces teaching combat life saving and things. Ukraine sovereignty is very important. Trump is all in favor of that. My point is long term, russias downward economic spiral is a threat to global stability and all the 37 have to think about g7 have to think whabout wha to do over time. Isnt it true that you cant agree to sovereignty after the 1994 agreement . I agree. Annexation of ukraine, as jim mattis says, was a mistake. We see shifting pieces on the chessboard, and russias potential economic instability could be a great threat over time especially given their nuclear weapons. I want to see us continue to talk and for the g7 to think about what we have to do in the long term. Lets not make it easy on putin. This is a mess of their own making. Lets not forget that that economic instability in russia is a potential threat. Michael, how does or how could the Mueller Investigation impact the potential for this next meeting . I mean, lets remember what happened on monday. The president of russia who our Intelligence Community said directed the campaign, the attack on u. S. Democracy, more than two dozen russians have been indicted in that investigation. Met with the president who is not the target of the investigation, the subject potentially of the investigation. One on one alone. Right. Is there some way that the Mueller Investigation could impact the ability of the president to have that meeting sometime in the fall . Well, there are a number of things happening now. Youve got the political side of it and the National Security side, but youve also got the criminal case or investigation going on. And there will be some move by the president s legal team to limit what he says, who he meets with, his availability. That could impact any discussion as it goes forward with putin. Now theyre trying to make a decision i believe about whether or not the president will ultimately give some testimony or give an interview to the mueller team. Those discussions that hes had with putin, could that come up . Why dont we know what happened in the private meeting . If they have a second private meeting or if one is planned, i think thats sort of the cold water that might get put on plans for a second summit. Its in play, but one side may be criminal, investigatory and the other is political, trying to balance the two is the problem theyre in now. Michael moore, errol lewis, rebecca grant, thank you all. Thank you. Still ahead, the trial is set to Begin Next Week against President Trumps former Campaign Chairman, Paul Manafort. The charges he faces and what we can expect to hear.

This morning, a woman who lost nine family members nine says the decision to try and beat an approaching storm may have cost her relatives their lives. Frances lynne from kolr has the story. Reporter a duck boat tour usually travels on wind and water. Tia coleman said she was told the tour will go on the water excursion first because of the incoming storm. She describes the captain taking over when they reached the lake. Once he takes over, theres a big, huge wave choppy, everybody start getting like, hey, this is a little bit too much. Then it got really choppy, big swells of water started coming into the boat. Then a huge wave swept over. When the wave swept over, the last thing i heard my sisterinlaw yell was grab the baby. Reporter thats when the boat started sinking. My head pushed up to the top of the water, and i lost control. I couldnt see anybody. I know it wasnt, but it felt like i struggled for it felt like i struggled for at least an hour. It was probably like ten minutes. I remember i kept sinking, kept sinking. Reporter she was drowning and describes the water as being very cold. I started floating. I was floating to the top. I felt the water temperature raise, to warm. As i felt the temperature raise, i jumped up and saw the big boat that sits out there. I dont know what kind of boat it is, huge, though. Reporter it was a rescue boat with people throwing life jackets into the water. Reporter i said, jesus, please keep me, keep me so i can get to my children. Keep me, lord. I was swimming as fast as i could. Then i couldnt reach i could not reach the life jackets. Reporter she had to swim to the rescue boat. I swam to the boat, and i was holding on for my my legs and arms were heavy from trying. They were so heavy. It was so heavy. Reporter she was transferred to the cox Health Hospital and is still in the process of recovering. Coleman told me about the tense family members she was with, starting with her sisterinlaw. She was there with her 13yearold, her soontobe 3yearold. I was there with my husband and our three children who were 9, 7, and 1. My inlaws were there, my motherinlaw and my fatherinlaw, and the uncle who lives with them. Reporter she also told me there were life jackets on board. They told us, theyre up here. This is where they are. They showed us where they were. They said, but dont worry about it, you wont need it. We said, okay. So when the captain took over, i thought that at some point he would say grab the jackets now. But we were told to stay seated. And everybody stayed seat. Nobody nobody grabbed it when that boat is found, all though life jackets are going to be on there. Nobody took one off. You dont you werent supposed to grab them unless you were in distress, which we were, but he told us dont, we dont need them. It was i dont know what to say. It was definitely, definitely life changing. Lifealtering event. My gosh. Life changing and altering, as she said. And i dont know how you get through that. Yeah. I hope she knows, i hope all of those people know that we are with them. Like we are behind them. I cannot imagine losing my children, imagine nine nine people in your family. To have the composure to tell the story hours later, thats one thing. Second, how do you start to heal when you go home . I dont know. And three of your children are not there . I dont know. I have no idea. I hope she hears us, and we say we are behind you. And there is a whole community of people who are with you. And thinking of you and praying for you. They will get to the bottom of this. There is an investigation, remember, thats going to go on to figure out what happened. But doctors are certain that coleman is going to make a full recovery. It is not clear, however, when shes going to be able to leave the hospital. We wish that family the very best. Our thanks to frances linn from kolr for the story. Absolutely. Police in houston are looking for the person who shot and killed a cardiologist who treated former president george h. W. Bush as a patient. Cnn correspondent Paolo Sandoval is live from new york. Good morning to you. We know this doctor, he was more than a physician to the former president. He was really prominent in the houston medical community, yes . Reporter yeah. A pillar in the medical community there in texas. Highly respected by his colleagues. And somebody that many people respected in that community. This morning, Houston Police tasked with two things finding his killer and trying to establish a motive. Pleases in houston searching police in houston searching an area near the Texas Medical Center for a murder suspect after cardiologist mouse hausknecht Mark Hausknecht was gunned down riding his bike to work. Police said the doctor was riding north when he passed the shooter, also on a bike, going the other direction. The suspect was on a bicycle, as well. Drove past, rode past the doctor, turned, and fired two shots. The doctor immediately went down. Reporter a private ambulance passed by the scene, and emts stopped to help before the Houston Fire Department arrived. I seen somebody flagging us down and said, you know, somethings wrong. Then i drove up a little further and seen a gentleman sprawled out on the floor with blood all over him. We rendered aid to the best of our ability. Reporter investigators didnt know if the shooting was targeted, random, or caused by road rang. A few people road rage. A few people may have witnessed the attack. Police are looking at surveillance video. Homicide investigators are interviewing people. And you know at the Medical Center theres a lot of cameras. Were hoping we can get foot angage footage of this. Reporter dr. Hausknecht was a wellknown cardiologist. One of his former patients, george h. W. Bush. A spokesman issued a statement saying mark was a fantastic cardiologist and a good man. President bush said in a statement, i will always be grateful for his exceptional compassionate care, his family is in our prayers. The houston Methodist Hospital spokesman said not only was he revered by his patients, but mark was highly regarded among his peers and colleagues. He was recently recognized as a super doctor. And the doctor described as a family man, had been practicing for 40 years, specializing in cardiovascular disease. In the meantime, investigators are now trying to track down the suspect. They dont have too much to go on right now, just that he was a male at the time wearing a jacket, also khakis, and a baseball cap. However, the shooting did happen during what was considered rush hour there at the hospital complex. Investigators there in houston certainly hoping that someone saw something and they can help them in the investigation to track down this doctors killer. Pretty bizarre circumstances tere.

Jury selection begins next week in the first trial for the special counsels russia investigation. Prosecutors will present the case against President Trumps former Campaign Chairman, Paul Manafort. Manafort faces numerous counts of Money Laundering and tax fraud related to his prior lobbying work for ukraines prorussian government. Cnns Jessica Schneider has more on what the highly anticipated trial will look like. Reporter Paul Manafort will soon emerge from his jail cell to face a judge and jury inside a virginia courtroom. Just won the primary process with a Record Number of votes. Reporter the man who served for five months as Donald TrumpsCampaign Chairman now faces 25 criminal charges in two separate cases in virginia and washington, d. C. , amounting to a maximum of 305 years in prison if convicted on all counts. Manafort lost his fight to move this weeks trial away from alexandria, virginia, which is just across the potomac from washington to roanoke, four hours odds the beltway. Manafort faces 18 count of bank and tax fraud in virginia where prosecutors from special counsel Robert Muellers team have laid out nearly 500 pieces of evidence they plan to present. Theyll include pictures of manaforts five homes spanning from manhattan to virginia and other photos documenting his oncelavish lifestyle filled with cars, highend clothing, and even a watch and other items from the selfproclaimed most Expensive Store in the world, bijan. Mr. Trump will be officially the nominee of the republican party. Were excited about that. Reporter just one month after that announcement and donald trump clinching the republican nomination, Paul Manafort was forced out. He left the campaign in august, 2016, amid questions about his past lobbying work for the prorussianukrainian government and payment he received. In 2017, the special counsels team charged manafort with hiding the money he made in ukraine to avoid paying taxes and lying about his debt to secure new loans. Manaforts lawyers have been fighting the charges for months on two fronts. In addition to the virginia case, manafort is charged with seven other counts in washington, d. C. , including failing to register as a foreign agent. That trial is set to start in september. In june, the d. C. District judge revoked manaforts 10 million bail which included house arrest and sent him to a jail two hours south of washington. The judge scolded manafort after prosecutors said he contacted witnesses in his case and asked them to lie. I have no foreign clients now. I have no clients. I have one client donald trump. Reporter the man who arguably ushered donald trump to the republican nomination is now more recognizable for his mugshot. The trial will be the first major spotlight for the special counsels team that has already secured five guilty pleas including manaforts former deputy, rick gates, and former National Security adviser michael flynn. So far, special Counsel Robert Mueller has brought 191 criminal charges against 32 people and three companies as part of his investigation into russian meddling and other matters that arise from that investigation. Thanks to Jessica Schneider there for reporting that with us. Cnn legal analyst and criminal defense attorney page pate with us. Good to see you this morning. Thanks for being here. We know special Counsel Robert Mueller is seeking immunity for five witnesses who are going to testify against manafort. What does that tell you about where this case is going . It tells me that those are critical witnesses for government, for the special counsels office. Its unusual in federal criminal cases for a judge to grant a witness immunity. Normally that witness is testifying as part of the deal with the government or as a witness whos never charged. In this case, we have witnesses that have critical testimony, but they dont want to talk. In order to get them to talk and overcome their fifth amendment protections, the special counsel goes to the judge, and the judge gives them immunity. That means they cant be prosecuted, so they can no longer refuse to testify. We dont know who the witnesses are yet, but im certain they have gone through the process, theyre going to be critical witnesses for the government. We heard a rundown of all of the evidence. Some of the 500 pieces of evidence. Anything stand out to you there . This is going to be a documentintensive case. I think its very clear that manafort at least had partial ownership of all of these accounts. And theres no question that money was being moved through these accounts and taxes were not being paid. The only way you can defend a document case like this is to show that you didnt know what was going on, or you didnt know it was wrong. So the governments going to lay out all kind of documents, over 400 exhibits. I have no idea what sort of defense manaforts going to have to that. The thing is, this case started as a russia investigation, right, into potential interference and meddling. He is being charged with Money Laundering, bank and tax fraud. Its not connected to the russia collusion investigation. Theyre saying that wont even come up here. However, is there any area where you can see this might actually circle back to President Trump . Can it be avoided altogether . Its possible, but i do think the judge is going to try to keep the jury focused on the evidence in this case. The documents, the money movement, the transfers, the failure to pay taxes. I think this judge is particularly sensitive to this not becoming a political case. Manaforts lawyers tried to get it dismissed, basically saying the special counsels now going after stuff that he doesnt have any authority to investigate. The judge denied the request. I think based on that ruling, the judge is going to try to keep President Trump out of this courtroom. Well see what the witnesses have to say about that. All right. Two quick things. One, do you think its going to be hard to seat a jury . Two, will manafort take the stand . I dont think theres any doubt were going to have people who show up for jury selection who obviously already know about the case. The key issue is can they keep an open mind. So i think its going to take at least a couple of days. Normally jury selection in federal court especially in that court goes real quickly. This is going to take some time. As far as manafort testifying, i dont see that happening. Again, its a document case. And i think manaforts best defense is to be patient and wait for a possible pardon from President Trump. All right. Page pate, appreciate it so much. Thank you, sir. Thank you. The violence at the border between israel and gaza despite a shaky ceasefire.

Td ameritrade. 43 minutes past the hour. New information that an israeli tank fired at a hamas military post in gaza after a border fence was breached. This is the first shot after a shaky ceasefire went into place between israel and gaza. This week theres been an uptick in violence after an israeli soldier was shot during protests along the fence separating israel and gaza. s ian lee cnns ian lee is live from gaza city. What are you seeing and learning this morning . Reporter good morning. You know, today is calmer than yesterday. Yesterday when you talked to everyone, war office everyones lips. People believed that the situation wthe situation was going to spiral out of control especially after the israeli soldier was killed by the sniper in gaza. Then you had the widescale Bombing Campaign targeting dozens of happen as infrastructure, weapons depots, command and control basically hitting in a range of targets. Then we heard from the u. N. Special coordinator for middle east peace. He pleaded on twitter saying that everyone in gaza needs to step back from the brink, not next week, not now. Those who want to provoke palestinians and israelis into another war must not succeed. It did look like we were heading to another war. Behind the scenes, the egyptians, the united nations, was working to tamp down tensions, to get everyone talk, and to cease the hostilities. Today there was the incident along the border where israel says there was an infiltration by militants into israel. Israel responded. You know, that is part of this ceasefire. We call it gaza calm because even though there are ceasefires, you do see once in a while the sporadic violence. And this situation is just continuing a trend that weve seen ever since march. Last weekend, we saw one of the largest upticks in violence. Over 200 rockets and missiles were fired from gaza into israel. Israel responded with the largest Bombing Campaign that the strip has seen since the 2014 war. So right now, the real challenge is going to be for egypt, for the u. N. , to see if they can come up with some sort of permanent ceasefire. A permanent truce so that this cycle of violence doesnt continue whereas next weekend, im talking again about another round of hostilities between gaza militants and israel. All right. Ian lee, we appreciate it so much. Thank you. Listen to this apparently they call themselves the frat house. And coys been taking a look at what exactly that means.
