Sf follow that model that he set. If you want to be be more like john mccain. Announcer this is new day weekend with Victor Blackwell and christi paul. Senator john mccain will be laid to rest at the Naval Academy cemetery in anan police. It will be a private farewell for the man who lived so much of his life in the public eye. Yesterday, more than a thousand people crowded into Washington National cathedral for this Memorial Service that mccain planned in great detail. The funeral seemingly to have a unified message but excluding the current leader of the country. Here is cnns jeff zeleny. Reporter washington paid tribute and bid farewell to john mccain an American Patriot and politician. At the Washington National cathedral, a living tabloid of history a list of whos who leaders from all stripes and to say goodbye to john mccain. Mccains daughter meghan overcame with grief and emotion throughout the week spoke passionately about his father. We gather here to mourn the passing of american greatness. The real thing, not cheap rhetoric from men who will never come near the sacrifice he gave so willingly, nor the opportunistic appropriation of those who live lives of comfort and privilege. Reporter inside this cathedral, it was the first of several references to President Trump and his own brand of politics, her father reviled. American was always great. The funeral unfolded as a parting lesson and civility from mccain himself. To eulogize him he invited george w. Bush who won a bitter primary fight in 2000 and barack obama who prevailed in 2008. Amid moments of humor. From trouble making plea to president ial candidate. Reporter praise for mccains core believes. A various points throughout his long career john confronted policies and practices he believed were unworthy to his country. He would insist we are better than this. America is better than this. Phony controversies and manufactured outrage. The politics that pretends to be brave and tough, but, in fact, is born of fear. John called us to be bigger than that. He called on us to be better than that. While President Trumps name was never spoken his absence was an unmistakable undercurrent. Mccain made it clear he didnt want him there. The two men strained relationship goes back to the 2016 campaign when mccain insulted the military service, saying real american heroes arent shot down but the president s advisers were on hand. Ivanka trump and among others. The funeral was sent off with son with danny boy. Reporter his final resting place on a grassy hill at the u. S. Naval Academy Ceremony next to chuck larson, another veteran of the vietnam war. Jeff, thank you very much. You saw there that washingtons power players were at the funeral. The president , he spent the day tweeting and playing golf at his course in virginia. Lets go now to cnn Sarah Westwood who is joining us from washington. What is the white house saying about these obvious swipes at the president . Anything . Reporter so far, victor, the white house is not even saying whether President Trump watched the funeral yesterday, but in the evening, President Trump did tweet a single line make America Great again. That is widely perceived as a direct response to what Meghan Mccain said about the america of her father not needing to be made great again because it has always been great and this is a difficult week politically for the white house because many have criticized President Trump for what has been widely perceived as an inadequate ponce to the passing of senator mccain. Sources tell cnn the white house aides drafted a statement for the president to release after mccains passing, that did not happen. The president opted for a perfunctory tweet shortly after news of his death was public is a publicized. The staff was raised at halfstaff and President Trump chose to spend yesterday at the golf course. It was 153rd day on the links of his presidency and he spent the service tweeting, not in memory of senator mccain but about the russia controversy, about nafta renegotiations. As we know, victor, this is a president who often does not take criticism lying down. Thats true, indeed. Sarah westwood, for us in washington, thank you. So many takeaways from senator mccains funeral and the response from his fellow republicans. We want to bring in cnn political analyst julian zeleny. Do you get sense of the respect shown yesterday and the decorum that people were talking about, any sense that will linger in political realms . I think most people suspect that it wont, unfortunately. That the reality of politics and washington are very different than the spirit that was conveyed at his memorial all of the services of the week. In some ways that is senator mccains last wish. The forces of polarization and partisanship is much deeper than any of this smoceremony could erase. Its still an Important Message and to hear two messages from different parties convey the same themes. Not about whether the left or the right is right, but about the importance of our institutions working well and the importance of being committed to governance. I think that is still an Important Message and you have to hear it again and again, even if the forces of politics move us in a different direction. We know ivanka and Jared Kushner were there as we saw jeff zeleny point out. Do you expect we will hear from them as they heard it facetoface . Maybe there will be a few comments but its hard for them to get any space relative to the president of the United States who has made his voice loud and clear throughout the week. So maybe they will Say Something but i think the weight of the response at this point or the positions are coming from the president of the United States. I want to ask you about this moment. There has been a lot of talk in our newsroom about this moment because some people think if they had just passed some gum, people however, people online were moved by, do we have the video of this moment . Where, apparently, president bush pass a mint or something to first Lady Michelle obama. She said, thank you. And then williams tweeted this. I would like to think a moment like this is what mccain was hoping for. What is it about this friendship between these two that is so endaerg to peope endeering to people . It sos some humanity in our political system and people like to see that. They hear and watch and read so much about the divisions and the fighting that they almost become caricatures. Here you see a very human moment. One person passing a mint or a candy to another. Different administrations, different parties. But they could still share Something Like that. So there is value. As small as this is for people to see Something Like this, especially in our current era where everything has really moved in such a different direction. Yeah, because youre talking about people, as you said, who are on two completely opposite sides of the political spectrum. Absolutely. I want to ask you real quickly about some politics today. Sam patton, this washington lobbyist, he has a plea deal in the mueller case. He paid 50,000 for tickets to President Trumps inauguration and did so on behalf of a owe oligark. It seems it is put together by the parts of the political world who are trying to sway the election and on its own it doesnt implicate the president or anybody in his orbit but my guess this is part of a bigger por portrait that mueller is trying to put together and figure out what the connections were. We need to point out no indication that the president was involved in this but it is a moment because this is the first instance that we can see where the doj has publicly charged someone for a foreigner funnel money to an event. To the campaign. To an event, certainly. Julian zeleny, thank you for being here, sir. Thank you. We are learning more about attempts to attempts to turn an Russian Oligarch to a russian informant. The Justice Department worked to recruit this oligarch. Steele was involved in the effort. The times report that investigators were hoping for information from deripaska.

This is what is happening in and around des moines, iowa. It is allegedly happening because of the murder of molly tibia bits. Her family is joining the city of des moines to fight back. Polo sandoval is bus. This is exactly what the family has asked people not to do. A sense of nervousness particularly among members of the latino family in around and where Molly Tibbetts death occurred. City officials there tweeting not in our city along with images of officials there removing racist graffiti over the weekend. Also new reports of robo calls from an out of state White Supremacist Group that called the alleged murder of molly tibia bits, quote, an invader from mexico. President trump has blamed molly tibia bi tibbetts on the immigration laws. Word calling the report that the death of this young woman being politicized absurd. They are asking them to be voted out. What does the tibbetts family have to say about this . They are not only mourning the loss of their daughter but have to deal with this. Rob tibia bitbetts the father o young woman writing and asking molly not be the victim of anybody in this case. I want to read you a portion of what he wrote. Rob tibbetts saying the following. Mr. Tibbetts requested this after the discovery of his daughters policy asking the politicians and pundits simply not make not politicize his daughters death and here he is again, so its certainly something that the tibbetts family had to deal with in the past and here they are again pleading to the public, politicians and pundits as well to not include his daughters memory in the immigration debate. Yeah. He said he actually wrote the person who is accused of taking mollys life is no more a reflection of the hispanic family as white supremacist are of all white people. A profound oped.

Im christi paul. Im Victor Blackwell. The president didnt deny comments but he said he made them off the record in a bloomberg interview and then he called for an apology, even though bloomberg said they had nothing to do with the story. Now the reporter who wrote that story is backing bloomberg. Daniel day, washington correspondent for the toronto star, is with us now. Daniel, thank you for being here. It is a rare move to speak up about a situation like this. Why did you feel compelled to do so and what do you want to say . Well, i made a commitment to my source that i would protect the right of course, i continue to do so and i always will. But this is an extremely unusual case in that we have the president of the United States using this leak to smear the reputations of the bloomberg reporters, these publicly calling them liars and accusing them of violating their commitment to him when they didnt do that. I didnt want to let my story be used to smear journalists, my colleagues. I never met them but they are ethical. I thought i could still protect my source and making clear the bloomberg reporters had nothing to do with this. Have you heard from anybody at bloomberg . No. I asked them for comment originally and they said we respect our offtherecord promises. But i dont know these people personally and i havent heard from them since. Sure. We did talk with margaret talif of bloomberg yesterday about how this offtherecord remark was publicized and here is what she teled us. Told us. I have no idea. Bloomberg did not have any offtherecord and if bloomberg has any agreement with anybody, to have an offtherecord conversation offtherecord is offtherecord and we honor that. Bloomberg has only reported ontherecord comments that the president has made. The president tweeted out he cant believe bloomberg tweeted out a firm offtherecord discussion. Youre saying this wasnt bloomberg. You say this was a source of mind. Do you think an apology is necessary somewhere . I cant really say honestly. I mean, all i can say about this sort of thing is that it wasnt anybody of bloomberg who head a promise to trump that this would not be released. So youre saying that the person that he talked to, it was not made clear that it was off the record . No. Im saying trump did make clear that these comments were off the record. Im saying that trump is accusing the people who made that promise to him, that it would be off the record, of violating that promise and im saying that none of those people who made that promise to him was my source. Okay. President trump did tweet this. Because at the end of the day, this is all about nafta. He said no political necessity to keep canada in the new nafta deal if we dont make a fair deal with the new nafta deal. How about the public threats of pulling out of this deal may affect the private conversations that are being had . Well, the canadian strategy has been to ignore trumps threats. He has been threatening to terminate nafta since his campaign and repeatedly, you know, at various moments in the talks. The canadian strategy is basically to pretend trump isnt president and continue to engage constructively. I think it does have an impact when, you know, the canadian government finds out that he is saying privately that he is not going to compromise at all and at the very least he makes it harder for the canadian government to believe the u. S. Side is negotiateing in good faith and makes it harder, i think, for the canadian government to sell a deal to the canadian public when the president is bragging that he didnt give any ground to canada. So what is the future of this deal . Its so hard to say, honestly. I think there is still a lot of optimism in the Business Community and the canadian side something can get done. They are down to quite few issues, although they are significant issues so anything is possible with trump on any subject. He could blow up the deal, he could try to proceed only with mexico, but its, you know, all hope is not lost. Its still very possible that they will come to some sort of agreement.

Reporter human rights have called this Detention Center the black hole of immigration facilities in america after years of repeated requests to go inside, cnn was finally granted access to our surprise, this year. This is rural georgia home of the stewart detention facility, one of the largest immigration Detention Centers in the country with over 1,900 detainees.

Liberty mutual insurance. Liberty. Liberty. Liberty. Liberty. Litigator, role model, decenter, Supreme Court justice ruth Bader Ginsburg has a lot of titles during her career. Now we take a look at the personal and professional live of Justice Ginsburg who has this impressive legal legacy but has become a proud culture icon. Im proud to nominate this attorney to be a justice to the Supreme Court. We may be in trying times, but think how it was. In those days. The judges didnt think sex discrimination existed. Ruth knew what she was doing in laying the foundation. To put women on the same plane as men. The goal was equality and civil rights. Ruth Bader Ginsburg quite literally changed the way the world is for american women. What has become of me could happen only in america. She has become such a rock star. She is really closest thing to a super hero i know. She is known to advance. The world over as the notorious rbg. All i ask of our brethren is that they take their feet off our necks. Lets bring in cnn Supreme Court reporter ariane devogue. Good morning to you. Good morning. Youve covered Justice Ginsburg and the Supreme Court for years now. As you watch the promotion for this documentary for this film, i should say, calling her a super hero and a trail blazer, she deserves it, but why do you think she is such a trail blazer . Victor, she might be one of the rare justices who is known more for the work she did before she took the bench. Even more so than the opinions she issued. Because as this young lawyer for the aclu, she attacked laws that discriminated on the basis of gender and she was very methodical and she would find good plaintiffs and bring the case much like marshall did earlier on race. She really changed the landscape for women as a young lawyer coming across. And, for instance, one of her plaintiffs, she decided to choose a male and she thought that maybe that would resonate with mostly male judges and justices who would hear this and they would recognize that the issue of gender discrimination hurt women but also hurt men. That was her strategy and she was a brilliant person in order to think broadly on how to bring these kinds of cases, victor. So she received really proud support during her confirmation in. In the context we have going to see this week with judge brett kavanaugh, we are not expecting those numbers any more and we dont see those numbers for nominees any more. Youre absolutely right. Think about ruth Bader Ginsburg. She was a lawyer for the aclu and i think she got through Something Like 963. Its going to be a whole different story for brett kavanaugh. Democrats are ready to pounce here because, remember, that kavanaugh is taking the place, if he is confirmed, of Justice Kennedy and that is going to really cement the conservative majority on this front for years to come and democrats want to fight this as best they can. They say two things. They say he believes in a strong executive and he also says he doesnt think a sitting president should be indicted so some democrats are saying given what is going on with President Trump, he should agree to recuse himself from any issues stemming from those investigations that will to the Supreme Court. They will push on that but is not going to happen. Supreme Court Justices all the time rule on issues that are important to the people that put them on the bench. But the other issue the democrats are also going to seize on are documents and kavanaugh, he has hundreds of thousands of documents from his time at the Bush Administration and the democrats say that while they are getting a lot of them, they are not getting everything and they want a chance to see everything and to go through it and they think that the hearing should have been delayed. So those are going to be two lines of attack we are going to see this week. A little more than 100,000 documents being held back under executive privilege and we got that letter from the white house supported by the justice of department sent over by the senate at the end of the week. The cnn poll, only 37 of respondents to this poll want the senate to vote in favor of judge kavanaughs nomination and the lowest in 1980 even in Harriet Meyers, when he pulled her nomination and four days later she was at 42 . Does it matter the Approval Rating of this justice and what is the likelihood hell get through . The way things are, it looks like he might get through. Democrats are going to try as hard as they can but what that poll also reflects, victor, is how this whole issue has become so politicized and ruth Bader Ginsburg, going back to her, had he she says she wishes the confirmation hearing were like in the old days when she was able to get through. She notes in recent years, look at elena kagan and justice sotomayor. They are turning into big political fights and i think that is what that poll reflects. We are watching it closely and we know you will be as well and Harriet Meyers nomination was in 2005 just to correct that. Catch the cnn film rbg, hero icon descentor here on cnn. Tonight at 9 00.

Youre not going to get beat by this wall. Im a nurse in an outpatient facility. Ive been climbing for about two and a half years. When i come here all my stress is released, just gets out of my body. My very first time getting to the top of the wall and looking down, i was scared to actually come down. I just do not like heights at all. I learned to overcome that fear because its like you cant be scared of things in life. I have students that are 5 years old and i have students that are 65 years old. It was a full body workout, so not only are you working on core strength, leg strength. Im starting to tone up more. The muscles, the shoulders, my legs. The movements of rock climbing force the body to adapt on a very frequent basis. The more varied these positions, the more the body has to adapt. What this does is create neural pathways that can enhance our movement, enhance our cognitive function.

So were in the middle of this long Labor Day Weekend you are. People are planning to get out, one more summer cookout. I have an afternoon dance party. Ill post pictures. But it could be ruined by a Tropical Weather system. His party will not be ruined, he will post pictures. What are we looking at here . Right, yes, so here is what we are looking for the latest. We have an 80 chance of development for this tropical wave over the next five days. A 50 development into a tropical depression in just the next two days. Here is why. As this system crosses over the keys and goes into the gulf of mexico, its going to enter much more favorable conditions and much warmer water temperatures. That will allow this thing to develop more. We know it will end up into the gulf. The question is from there where does it go . Does it end up taking the heavy rain in mobile or pensacola, closer to new orleans, or further west to galveston and houston . Heres the thing, though. Because it will be entering all of this warm water here in the gulf, we know the system itself is going to get stronger. The end of the day, the takeaway i want you to get from this, a lot of rain will be dumped not just for portions of florida although thats where it will start. 24 widespread across miami, perhaps even higher than that in some isolated spots and then areas of mississippi, louisiana, portions of texas, widespread amounts of, say, 46 inches. We also have this other system. This is Tropical Storm florence. Right now not really much of an impact. Just a fish storm that we call it because its sitting over the open water. The question is what does it do from there . In the short term it is expected to stay over open water, but we will have to watch this, say five to seven days from now to see where that turn starts to take place and whether or not it will bring it closer to the u. S. The question is this usual for this time of year . And the answer is yes. In fact, this time of year a lot of systems actually come off the coast of africa, but you also have some that develop into portions of the gulf. Those are the areas that really have a lot of concern Going Forward this time of year and also keep in mind right now we are just starting to enter what we consider peak hurricane season. The peak date is coming up. Its september 10th. Thanks so much. Theres a lot more to the late senator john mccain than politics. Hes being remembered for his sense of humor. Jeanne moos has some of his funniest moments. Reporter he called his campaign bus the Straight Talk express. Why are we handing this out . Reporter but a lot of what he expressed was humor whether it was poking fun at his opponent, then president ial candidate obama maverick i can do, but messiah is above my pay grade. Reporter or getting nabbed on camera playing poker on his phone during a senate debate. Occasionally i get a little bored. Reporter just a year and a half ago senator mccain was horsing around like a teenager, making devil ears. Laying out demands reporter behind a reporter. After all these years revenge, more devil horns behind his fellow senator from colorado. Senator john mccain. Reporter and then there were all those snl appearances, never funnier than when mccain sings streisang. Reporter he decided to try hers. Pretty annoying, huh . Reporter barbra wasnt annoyed. She referenced the snl act in a tweet and called him a good man, a good senator. He even let snl joke about his then running mate going rogue available now we have a bunch of these. Reporter senator mccains attempts at humor sometimes blew up on him. Remember this . Reporter senator mccain did when someone asked him about punishing iran. That old beach boys song. Reporter he made movie and tv cameos playing himself i just need to get my coat here. Could you give me a minute, please . Reporter he made fun of himself. No wonder he lafughed so easily.
