6 25 p. M. Its at facebook. Com andersoncooper full circle opinion right now i want to hand it over to chris cuomo. Cuomo prime time starts now. You were wondering where the rain is, now you know. Its right on andersons head. Hurricane florence is starting to come around for the coast of the carolinas. Anderson is going to stand by. We have correspondents up and down the path of the storm for you. Here is hurricane florence, very slow, thats the problem with this storm. When she comes, she stays, and shes dumping water in places that dont have a lot of tolerance for it, by the time the wind gets to you, the areas have been soaked. Currently just over 80 miles eastsoutheast of where Anderson Cooper is. Lets go to where were seeing the storm in full effect already. Brian todd is in ham stead, North Carolina. Whats the weather . You have to keep your eye on that situation. We have an assisted living facility not far from the area where were getting pounded right now. Its good, weve been t
affected from what we do with the nation if we can t protect our allies? arthel: beijing is in the batter s box waiting to see what happens. it s always good to see you, thank you. thanks for having me. eric: will have market from in a moment but the deadly shooting in new york city, it s killed one young police officer in but another fighting for his life. pressure wrapping up on progressive politicians who have done everything from calling for police department not charging criminals crimes the victims of crime, who will hear from them next.
empty handed. we have our empty medal box waiting in our room and we have no answer as to what the time line will be for the issue to be resolved. are you given anything, some kind of place holder prize or is it an empty box? the ioc was very generous in extending to us olympic torches, which we definitely considered to be an honor but we have a whole team of athletes that have finished competing and are staring looking at an empty box, the unknown of the future and missing out on that olympic moment. it s not at the olympic games, not for the whole world to see, not the true culmination of their hard work and effort, blood, sweat and tears. we appreciate the fact that thomas bach took time out of his schedule upon our request to,
we were told earlier that they were disheartened by the russian doping controversy rocking the sport. they showed compassion for the 15-year-old kamila valiyeva and her teammates. hubble and donoughe going to take home bronze but they were part of the team event in which americans won silver. they feel sad for those who will not go home for a medal while valiyeva s investigation is ongoing. here s part of our talk earlier. i don t think it s fair to any of the athletes who medaled that we have to, you know, forego that olympic moment standing on the medal stand and it is hard to go home empty handed. we have our empty medal box waiting in our room and we have no answer as to what the time line could be for that issue to be resolved. reporter: are you being given anything from that team event to walk away with? some sort of place holder prize or is it just an empty box?
gold medals are redistricte red. but that s a process that can take months, if not years. now there s not even the medal ceremony. so the american team won silver. they, i think, would like to stand on the podium and at least celebrate some kind of achievement but there s no podium ceremony. they are literally leaving with empty boxes. this is what madison hubbell said to cnn. it s hard to go home empty handed. we have our empty medal box waiting in our room and we have no answer as to what the timeline could be for that issue to be resolved. so it is really tough and my heart goes out to everyone on all of the teams. it is such an unsatisfactory situation for everybody. the international olympic committee and all the governing bodies involved here really have failed all of the athletes. don riddell, thank you very much. back now to the warning we told you about at the top of the
