We want to welcome our viewers in the United States and around the world. Youre watching new day this morning. New reporting of a possible major concession in Nuclear Negotiations with north korea. President trump is back at the white house after this historic meeting with kim jongun at the dmz. Mr. Trump becoming the first sitting u. S. President to set foot in north korea. This morning the New York Times reports that the Trump Administration might be headed towards accepting north korea as a Nuclear Power and allowing kim jongun to keep his Nuclear Weapons in exchange for a freeze of new weapons. Now, that is a position the administration previously said it would not stand for. We also have breaking 2020 news. South bend mayor Pete Buttigieg has announced a monster fund raising haul in the Second Quarter just high of 25 million. This really cements his status in the top tier of democratic president ial candidates. Lets break down those new fund raising numbers and the message it sends. Joining us now, jess mcintosh, david shalian, and bianna. If one year ago i had told you in the Second Quarter Pete Buttigieg would raise 25 million, if i had told the average american. They would say wow and then they would say who. Thats exactly right, john. This is just an eye popping number. And not only as you said does it cement his status in the top tier, but what it really does here is guarantees his longevity in this race. He may not be sitting atop the polls right now. But when you have a number like this and by the way, i think theyve got 22 million cash on hand. So a lot of that money that theyre raising is actually in the bank there. And able to be used. This guarantees that this is a candidate not going anywhere. Hes going to have the ability to fund the organization that theyre building as the votes begin. As for all candidates, rules still apply. Youve got to start winning some contests as the look at viability. But Pete Buttigieg out of nowhere is going nowhere out of this race any time soon. And jess, you were part of the Hillary Clinton campaign. She raised more than that in her Second Quarter. But she didnt have 24 other candidates. She also started with a strong existing fund raising infrastructure which is mayor or a relatively small city does not. So this is more impressive for him. I think the first debate was a moment for a lot to tune in to see whether the people they were thinking about supporting could pass a major hurdle. I think we saw a lot of support to Kamala Harris after that debate. A lot of black women were waiting for the moment to see her shine. She did that. Ang lot of people were looking at mayor pete thinking he seems great. But i just met him a week ago. Then he absolutely i probably think the clear second winner of the debate. They saw that, they realized they could hold his own at the top tier. It is a break outnumber. In the meanwhile, in the past few weeks he has had some stumbles particularly with hope hes handled racial issues. Most americans didnt know who he was a few months ago. Lagging indicator, spoken like an economics reporter. Also theres a question for joe biden whos had a challenging few weeks. I dont know where the biden number will come in. I suspect it might be around this, but its not going to be double it. And so youre going to have the comparison where youve got someone whos been in the political game for longer than Pete Buttigieg has been alive raising perhaps comparable numbers to a guy whos mayor of south bend. Yeah. Theres no doubt. And i agree with you. The joe biden number is going to be a big number. Remember, this is the first time we see a joe biden number. He got into this race in this quarter. So this is going to be the first fund raising metric. We had seen buttigieg race more money than i think many expected in the first quarter. And obviously what is this . More than triple that this quarter . Youre right. Joe biden will be around this number, but his expectations are to be around this number. That is the difference here as you look at what a candidate that expectation matters. I would also note joe biden has been a dominant force in this race in the polls in a way buttigieg hasnt been yet. Joe biden has a reservoir of support in the party that weve seen over these last several months. Pete buttigieg is trying to build that. I dont want to say they hold the same position in the race. Kamala harris performance i guess has gotten the attention of donald trump jr. Possibly i dont know threatening them because theyre putting out he retweeted sort of a nasty tweet about her. Ill read it because in the last hour, you told us what we need to look for when we see tweets like this. And that it is part of something more organized. Here is what don jr. Retweeted from a guy named ali alexander. Kamala harris is not an american black. She is half indian and half jamaican. Im sick of people robbing american blacks like myself of our history. Its disgusting. Now using it for debate time. These are my people, not her people. Freaking disgusting. What would you like us to see between the lines here . See the coordinated attack behind this. Ali alexander is an actual person, a black american. But that exact message was written out on almost a dozen tweets immediately following the debate. So this was something that we saw in 2016 where the right, russia, we dont know whos doing it at this point but they would engage in digital blackface where they would pretend to be black americans who are angry about something racist perceived in the democratic primary. Were starting to see this happen again. And we saw it with that tweet which populated across twitter coming from different places. Some are bots, some are real. We dont know. But when you see things like this, its important to recognize that there is a coordinated attack behind it and its not just bunches of black americans suddenly saying were angry at Kamala Harris. And for him to post wow the s this true. The Campaign Spokesman said he didnt know Kamala Harris was half indian. Thats what he was asking there. Really he cant go to google and ask about the background . He just tweets something he sees . Thats inexcusable and he should know better. Going back to the coordinated efforts, the russians were notorious for honing in on u. S. Issues, social issues. Specifically race legislations issues in 2016. The first to focus on the black lives Matter Movement and take advantage of it. The Kamala Harris campaign put out this is the same type of racist attack his father used to attack barack obama. It didnt work then and it wont work now. You saw this weekend all of her competitors sort of coming to her defense speaking out exactly to the issues that jess and bianna were just getting at. But also because much like the Obama Campaign had to deal with those, these campaigns have learned you have to fight them back at its inception right away. You cant allow one of these false narratives to take hold because it has a life of its own despite the fact it is totally not based in any fact. All right. The major news over the weekend and my major i mean historic, is the picture of the president of the United States donald trump stepping into north korea over the dmz. Took about 19 or 20 steps then met for an hour with kim jongun inside the militarized zone. It is a remarkable picture. This is their third meeting. There are questions this morning about the substance behind whats going on in these discussions. And reporting from the New York Times, david sanger and michael krolly, that the United States is considering instead of the complete denuclearization, Something Like a freeze. They can keep what they have. That may lead to peace. And obviously im not the expert that clap clapper is. It seemed like at every turn, trump bowed to authoritarianism saying he was honored to be in north korea. He joked with putin about getting rid of the press and meddling in our elections. He seemed to annoy the leaders of the g20 by bringing his daughter who didnt have any reason to be there and wound up bumping shoulders with some really highlevel conversations that were embarrassing she was around. This was just a disaster of a trip. On par with the helsinki summit. So i might be willing to say that there could be some good in having reached an agreement with north korea. But i dont believe that donald trump is working in americas interests at any turn. So im highly skeptical. It is historic. But one has to remember that the reason why so many u. S. President s never set foot in north korea prior to donald trump is because they did not believe that they would denuclearize. Right . So if they now say we are going to work towards denuclearization, perhaps thats not even our ultimate goal, a freeze is an ultimate goal, its a huge shift in our foreign policy. What does that mean for allies and what does that mean for iran . Irans watching this saying were in the midst of our own Nuclear Debate here with the u. S. And internationally. If the u. S. Is willing to step back and what they were demandings from north korea, what does that mean for us . I think a lot of depatail needso come forward. But what makes this historic is not that this is the first to come to north korea just because theyre the first to get along. Its because President Trump has been willing to take this huge risk. And if donald trump didnt like the iran deal that president obama had put together, why would he like this deal that the New York Times is reporting is the same thing as what has been spelled out if they get to keep it. And furthermore, shes making claims they havent done any missiles testing. But the adviser a month ago said they have been and in violation of the security council. Why . Because his name would be attached to this one, not president obamas. To answer your question. I think it raises the question does donald trump on the world stage in these kinds of negotiations, is in his new York Real Estate mentality deal making with Public Relations sort of fully locked together that is driving this. Or is there more a geopolitical strategic thing that hes doing here . And i dont know that we have the answer to that. I want to read a statement from john bolton who put this out moments ago. He said, i read this New York Times story with curiosity. Neither the staff nor i have discussed or heard to settle for a Nuclear Freeze by north korea. This was a reprehensible attempt by someone to box in the president. There should be consequences. I will note he wasnt next to the president. Tucker carlson was from fox. I dont know if john bolton is in the inner circle in this. He may be, but he may not know the most right now. Thank you, friends. We have more breaking news. Hundreds of protesters are clashing with police. Some trying to break into hong kongs legislature. The demonstrations come on the 22nd anniversary of the british return to china. Our Nic Robertson has been in the middle of this witnessing some remarkable scenes. Hes outside the Legislative Council right now with with the latest details. In nic . Reporter this has been an extraordinary day. Every year for the last 22 years on the first of july, the people of hong kong come out to demonstrate to have a show of their thoughts about the britain handing over to chinese mainland hong kong. This a symbolic protest. What weve witnessed today is absolutely the opposite of that. What we have witnessed, hundreds of thousands of people in peaceful protest and tens, perhaps of thousands of others gathered outside the government building behind me. The Legislative Council building. They have been trying to smash their way into the building and literally been standing by the windows as theyve been smashing through them. Theyve been breaking up barricades that police have put out there to keep them back. Theyve been using whatever they can find. Big creates full of rocks to drive into those thick, thick glass windows. And the windows have slowly over a period of time shattered and then been forced back and broken down. And the police who have been on the inside have rushed forward with pepper spray to hold the crowd back. The amazing thing is that the crowds havent then tried to get into the building. Right now they have moved to another part of the building. This is a systematic effort to smash this building as much as they can. The government building. Oh, my gosh, nic. What remarkable pictures youve shown us. Please stay safe as you report. Back in the u. S. , a florida man is facing attempted murder charges after dragging a deputy about a hundred yards. These scary moechlts were caught on camera. You can see what happened here. The sheriffs deputy pulled over the driver of the suv over his tinted windows. But the officer eventually thought he smelled marijuana. He asked him about it, thats when things began to escalate. Listen, listen. Do me a favor. Do me a favor. Im telling you right now. Im telling you right now stop stop stop stop put it in park put your hands up put your hands up put your freaking hands up you just tried to take off with me put them up now i didnt do nothing. Im telling you put your hands up i put your hands up put your hands up i swear to god put your hands up put it in park. Okay. Thats terrifying. He dragged the deputy. The deputy was eventually thrown from the suv. Were happy to report he was treated for minor injury. The suspect was caught a short time later. Hes scheduled to appear in the afternoon. This is why police say theres no such thing as a routine traffic stop. Any time theyre just taking their lives in their hands. Whenever they pull someone over and they dont know what theyre going to encounter. Thats just one of the things they have to be prepared for. Terrifying. The New York Times saying the u. S.

Breaking this morning, the Trump Administration might be headed toward accepting north korea as a Nuclear Power allowing kim jongun to keep his Nuclear Weapons in exchange for a freeze on production of new weapons. Joining us now is james clapper. Thanks for being with us. Let us read you the reporting from david sanger which broke about two hours ago. It would amount to a Nuclear Freeze. One that enshrines the status quo and i want to note. This is something for some time youve been saying you believe might be the only logical outcome. Why . Well, john, a lot of people are uneasy with the fact the likes of india and pakistan have Nuclear Weapons. But the reality is they have them and the reality is theyve been responsible with them. So i came around to the position some months ago as least in the interest of getting something done, it might be worth considering capping what the North Koreans have now. And then maybe on a much, much longer term basis, you know, trying to get them to reduce their Nuclear Holdings to zero which i think is going to be very difficult. You know, for the North Koreans, their Nuclear Weapons capability is their ticket to survival. They know no one would be paying any attention to them at all were it not for their nuclear capability. So i think the likelihood of them giving up their entire Nuclear Arsenal on a shortterm basis is just not realistic. What does the u. S. Get in return for this . Because this is something that is truly diametrically opposed to what the Trump Administration said it was going for in these negotiations. Well, the quick pro quo here, you know, what the North Koreans do would be to induce them to institutionalize behaving responsibly. Which for the most part theyve done lately. I think this would get this would require some very complex negotiations. I think it wouldnt be realistic or sailable unless there were some verification regime which would be a hard pill for the North Koreans to swallow. I do think the general idea of accepting the current Nuclear Arsenal, whatever it is, is a good starting point. And it may be. Ultimately that may be where its headed. You dont argue it would be a concession based on what terms have been talking about up to this point. Clearly. The long held position and its not unique to this administration has been a complete elimination of the Nuclear Enterprise of north korea. Which particularly after my encounters with North Koreans i think has kind of been possible. I also want to note, this is a concession to north korea. And frankly stepping into north korea was a concession to north korea. This is something that kim jongun and north korean leaders would have wanted for generations and something no u. S. President would do until donald trump. So this is giving the North Koreans something they wanted. It came on the heels of President Trump giving china something it wanted too which is some of the restriction of Technology Sales to huawei. Yes, the United States got a trip back to the negotiating table with china, but thats a major concession. After the president said he was going to basically try to starve huawei of this technology. Yeah, i think a common Lesson Learned here is not be so bold about the mountain top pronouncements about the ultimate full monty on any issue. So i think its not all that bad to be flexible and provided you get something in return. Just reflect on this trip. Because we have seen a lot of images. Whether it was President Trump with kim jongun, a dictator. President trump and Mohammed Bin Salman. And all kinds of other reports responsible for the death of jamal khashoggi. These are pictures that the president was all too willing to be seen in over the last week or so. Whats the Lasting Impact, do you think, of this . Well, i dont know what the Lasting Impact would be. I do think its it doesnt reflect well, this deference joking with putin about not meddling in our election process, giving prominence to the likes of Mohammed Bin Salman on the heels of the khashoggi murder which in my view clearly mbs is implicated. And so this is so counter to and then of course honoring kim jongun who is one of the most brutal despots in the world. Theres been a lot of activity of the internet just recalling Otto Warmbier which i think is completely appropriate. Someone was probably tortured to death by the north krooeoreans. So i think its not good in the context of advancing and defending the values this country has long stood for. James clapper, thank you for being with us this morning. Thanks, john.

Democratic congresswoman susan wild revealed on the house floor last week that her longtime partner had taken his own life in may. Today mark this onemonth anniversary of the death of my beloved life partner. What most people dont know is that kerrys death was a suicide. Kerry was 63 years old. He shouldnt have had a care in the world. He was financially secure and had a warm, loving family and dozens of friends. He loved them all. And yet incomprehensibly he seemingly did not grasp the toll his absence would have on those who loved him. Wild says that shes speaking out to remove the stigma surrounding suicide and Mental Health. And joining us now is congresswoman wild. Were so sorry for your loss. We know what a shock a death from suicide can be. I just wonder why you decided to share your pain so publicly. I decided to share the pain because i realize i have a public platform from which i can speak about an issue that i think is too often swept under the rug. We pay a lot of lip service to Mental Health and then yet i dont think we as a country really recognize the toll that it takes on people and how prevalent it is. I read that up until the very last moment, you didnt know if you, i guess, would or could make that speech. And what turned it around for you . Thats correct. Well, you know, i just thats correct. I was on the floor. We were in the middle of legislative business. It was late at night because we were taking late votes. And these speeches are typically given at the end of the day. And right up to the last minute, i was afraid i wouldnt be able to get through it. But i just pushed through because i felt so strongly about doing it. There were some of my colleagues who knew that i was going to and they had gathered around and were there to support me. I was very appreciative of that. That is really nice. Why do you think there is such a stigma around suicide . You know, ive been grappling with that myself. I honestly its not something ive given a lot of thought to until the last month. You know, i think that we just dont have a recognition of the fact that Mental Illness has, i believe, some sort of chemical component to it. That it is to be treated as seriously as a physical ailment. You know, you wouldnt hesitate to tell your neighbor, perhaps, that you have cancer. But you would never tell your neighbor about your psychological turmoil or whats going on. The other issue i dont think we Pay Attention to is the issue of chronic pain and how that plays into Mental Health issues and specifically to suicide. Its one of the leading causes of suicides, i believe. Did you know that your partner was struggling . Thats a really hard question. He was one of the people that suffered from chronic pain. His chronic pain was related to a surgery he had years earlier. It never imagined it took this kind of toll on him. He was very adept at concealing it. Chronic physical pain is such a crux for people to bear. People soldier through it, you know . Or they try to. But they dont want to burden their loved ones. And he did for many, many years. For many years he did. And you know, im not suggesting that was the only issue. And for many people its not, but i think when its coupled with any other type of struggle, it just makes it unbearable. As i said in my floor speech, to all outward appearances, there was absolutely nothing that should have caused this. He didnt have the financial insecurities that a lot of people have. He did have a warm, loving family. He wasnt alone in life. And so ive struggled to try to make sense of this. And i may never make sense of it, but if i can help one person or one family avoid this kind of pain, i intend to use my public platform to do so. Here are the numbers and theyre really stunning. A 33 increase in suicides from the year 1999. 47,000 deaths by suicide in 2017. Its the second leading cause of death for people aged 10 through 44. Why do you think weve seen this spike in suicide in recent years . I am no expert on this subject yet. I intend to become one. And i dont know. We often talk about things like veteran suicide. We talk about suicide among lgbt youth. But we dont talk about the mainstream population and whats going on. And we need to find out. I think its an underreported cause of death. I think the numbers you just cited are probably lower than they really should be. And i think until we start to talk about it openly and honestly that were not going to get to the root cause and prevention of it. I will tell you and i feel the need to say this, i did receive a phone call from a gentleman in the midwest the day after i gave that floor speech. He had seen it on twitter. And he told me that he had been suicidal for months. But that after watching it, he felt he could not do it to his wife. And he promised me that he would seek treatment. I hope that he has. But as i said, you know, if i saved one life by being public about it, then obviously id rather not be in a position to be able to talk about this but i want to do something that brings light to it and makes people feel like theyre not alone. And i think that you are doing that. I mean, just by coming on tv and talking about something so painful and so private, i believe you are saving lives. Thank you very much for your candor and for sharing your personal story with us. And we just want to let anyone know, if you or someone you know is struggling with Mental Illness or feelings of suicide, please know you are not alone. There are professionals standing by at the National Suicide prevention lifeline. They would be happy to talk any time. 24 7. The number 18002738255.

He was at a private fund raiser in seattle in the citys gay community. According to press reports, he said public sentiment have come very far in just a short period of time. He said five years ago if someone at a business meeting in seattle made fun of a gay waiter they he publicly supported samesex marriage before president obama did. Which is true. It is true.

Joining me joe lockhart, press secretary for Clinton White house and Brian Stelter chief media correspondent. Joe, this is one of the jobs of the white house secretary. She put her body on the line to give the press access and get the cameras in. I understand theres two sides to that but to get the cameras into part of this historic meeti meeting. Yeah, it is part of the job. I think people would be surprised about how common this is, particularly in places where theres authoritarian government, staterun tv. I think it got an enormous amount of attention because of the combination of it being her first couple of days on the job and being in north korea, which had never happened before. I certainly had scraps with security people. It just gets a little bit messy. Part of the job is just getting your people in. Its the right thing to do. They have a right to cover it and they wanted the picture. Its part of their stage craft. This happens in russia, china, in the gulf. I think she got a taste of what the next couple of years might be like. Brian, we dont know if this means she will go to those lengths to go to bat for reporters or if they just wanted she knew this was important for President Trump and he wanted to have this video. I guess it will remain to be seen if she has Daily Press Briefings and accessible to reporters. This is a good sign. This the beginning of her role as White House Press secretary. She deserves a lot of credit getting the American Press in. It was good for the president but also good for the president. Its been 120 days without a White House Press briefing. We dont know if they will bring that back or not. In the next few weeks, they will reveal her plan and how open she will be to the public. Think how sean spicer started as secretary, lying about the crowd sizes. At least shes showing she understands the important of press access. You can make the case press freedom is always good for u. S. Presidency. The idea especially when youre in the place of north korea or dmz, its vital to show those values, American Values on displaymaki displaymaking. Speaking of the media, we need to talk about the bald hypocrisy. Talking about me . No. [ laughter ] the naked hypocrisy. Talking about me. Thats my outside voice. Go ahead. President trump was quite excited to meet with kim jongun, as he has been. I think its important to go back in the time machine and show how over at fox the commentators were appalled when candidate barack obama suggested that he might ever sit down with kim jongun. We have a little clip, courtesy of the internet, of then, their feelings, and now. Obama would personally negotiate with leaders of terrorist nations like iran and north korea without preconditions. Wow. The world will probably be a little bit safer. The media should be giving President Trump credit for that. Bad idea for the president to speak to kim jongun. Why wait to the end of may. Lets do this by the end of march. Would you as president meet with leaders like north korea. Obama historically said he might meet with them. If it worked, he should get the nobel peace prize. From this is horrible to nobel peace prize. That clips goes on for three minutes. All the obama years that do prove the hypocrisy. Two things going on. Conservative apparatus that is critical and props up trump and the rest of the media is grading trump on a curve. Strange comments on the asia trip, not knowing what busing means, western style liberalism, thinking it means california, some attention over. Mike bolton. Yes, great singer. I think those kind of comments never get caught up by fox, strange behavior never get noticed by conservative outlets but also the rest of the media. Over at fox, its much more hermetically sealed chamber when it comes to hypocrisy. One thing, what if obama did this. There you go. We know how he was treated because he was treated a certain way for had some of this. It makes your head hurt thinking about all those answers. What if Chelsea Clinton had been front and center like ivanka was during g20 meetings. We live if north korea is the hermit kingdom, fox is the hermit network. They dont let anything, just the story. One of the really think things about yesterday, it was historic, the president going to north korea, but the president s comments werent about how historic it was, it was about how freight the media was, how great his coverage was. I think the media often and the president certainly misstates motion and activity for progress. If you read the New York Times this morning, weve not only not made progress, weve actually taken a step back as far as our negotiating position. So a lot of chaos doesnt necessarily mean diplomatic success. Joe, brian, thank you very much for the analysis. Thanks for international viewers, for you cnn newsroom with metroplex mofoster is next. Next fundraising hall for 2020 candidate. President donald trump made history at the dmz. Were not looking for speed. Were looking to get it right. Theres been a lot of goodwill. Keeps having these summits and meetings that really dont produce anything. Its very unusual, bizarre diplomacy. The danger is weve legitimized kim jongun and hes given up nothing. Donald trumps retweeted and deleted a tweet questioning Kamala Harriss blackness. I was born black and im proud of being black. The president has seen a potential threat in rising Kamala Harris. Trump family trying every way they can to divide this. They havent delivered what they promised. This is new day with alisyn camerota. Welcome to new day, it is july 1st. Breaking this morning, reports of a possible major concession in the Nuclear Talks with north korea. President trump is back at the white house after his historic meeting with kim jongun where he became the first sitting u. S. President to step
