Card image cap

Wildfire across the northern, the border in northern california. Also making headlines the Delta Variant now to be the most prevalent strain of the coronavirus in the United States the. Partial Lock Downs as Cases Surge in countries. Could it return to mask wearing become a reality as we head into the fall . Plus a monumental mistake here in new York City which is raising questions this morning about results in the democratic primary for mayor and the integrity of the process. Election officials somehow adding 130,000 nonvalid Test Ballots to the count. Cnn senior political Writer And Analyst is with us. The question i think for so many people waking Thunder Morning or Last Night before they went to bed Last Night how does this happen . Its a disgrace. I mean, look. You have one job. Count the ballots. They had a week after the initial preferences came in. Do the Rank Choice a week after that. Look Theres Nothing wrong with testing your software but you take those votes out especially in an era in which theres so much distrust within the electoral process. Nothing nefarious went on here but you couldnt carry out The One job you were meant to do. Its ridiculous. There are concerns what this will say to voters about the integrity of their vote especially what were seeing about lies pushed around the country. One would think as given that as a backdrop, its not the Rank Choice voting thats the issue but knowing this was a new way of doing things in the City One would think you would up your game to make sure there were no issues. One would think, wouldnt you. One would. But theyve never met the new York City board of elections. This is a board of athletics that has been to be frank as a resident of this city for premise entire life has been a disgrace. They oftentimes had problems. This is the latest example of a problem of this city of board of elections. God forbid if New York was in a swing state. Heres the question. Because this came is not the first time theres been an issue with the new York City board of elections, how does this keep happening . It feels like a rinse and repeat that we have an issue. Incompetency. The fact of the matter is that the city as well as the governor who is involved in this process has to get more involved. Be very interested to hear what the mayoral candidates have to say going forward. There clearly needs to be something that is done going forward. The past is behind us. The board of elections came out Last Night, admitted their error. Hopefully no more errors the. Hopefully the candidates give them a little bit of lee way, recognize nothing nefarious has gone on. We cant have these mistakes occurring especially when stakes are so high. We need to be able to trust the results and im hoping, just hoping that there are no more errors because the fact of the matter is this system at this point really cant afford any more errors. You said we should hear from some of the candidates. Well do that later on this morning. Catherine garcia will join us live here in the studio. John the. The latest on the Searchandrescue Effort at the scene of this deadly Condo Collapse here in surfside, florida. Seven days now since the tower came down. 12 people confirmed dead with 149 others unaccounted for. Biden and the First Lady will visit tomorrow to visit with families of the missing. The miamidade State Attorney announce Ad Grand Jury will look into the cause of this disaster. Were getting new clues about how the catastrophic collapse started from a Condo Resident who spoke to me overnight and tells me exactly what she saw. I want you to listen to the sequencing here. There was a big boom and i was running to see where the sound come from. And i saw all the garage collapse. God watches us. God was wasting for us to leave the building and then another big boom and then we didnt see anything. It was suddenly quiet after the big boom and it was white clouds all over. Joining me now is a reporter from the Miami Herald who has been covering this story extensively. Very interesting to hear from Sara Nir who says she saw the pull deck area, Garage Area Collapse first. That was the first thing to go. Then she still had time to get out of the building before the rest of the building went down. Thats a very compelling eyewitness account. It extends our understanding of the timeline of this collapse from a sudden like moment to Moment Collapse to one of about five minutes, i think from her account. We have another eyewitness, of course, reported by the Miami Herald a woman called her husband from her fourth Floor Balcony reporting something very similar before the Phone Line went dead. A chilling account from her as well. One of the things Sara Nir told me is she was hearing sounds. She was hearing things which is why she walked out of her apartment to talk to security when she saw the pool deck collapse. She was hearing things. So the building, the building itself was moving and shaking and reeling in a lot of ways. We dont yet know exactly what would have caused that but were getting clues about where that failure might have been. Of course, we have that 2018 report that points to the bisexual Deck Leaking on to structural slabs and causing degradation to concrete underneath it. That structural concrete is reinforced by Rebar And Rebar can corrode. That can cause a collapse. What she could have been hearing, i guess, according to experts is that initial failure or failures of columns or beams within the building. It is chilling that it went on long enough for her to hear it, to react, to talk to someone, to go back to get her kids and still go out. It really does give us a new Insight On Timeline and the location of where things started to go wrong. Youve been doing extensive reporting on all of this and you have some new insight from engineers on how rare this is. Weve been scouring clips all over the world. I looked at about 300 collapses at this point and what i can tell you is most of them dont look like this. Most of them are bridges or cell towers. Those kinds of things. Not residential buildings. When they are buildings they often have something in common, an earthquake, a fire that caused it. They were under construction or very newly built and poorly designed. Whats odd about this building is that it with stood hurricane andrew, up for four decades before it collapsed suddenly without warning. Other buildings that collapsed at least hours of warning, big cracks, residents able to evacuate. That wasnt the case here. So it seems to be a largely unprecedented event according to the experts im speaking to. Keep on doing your reporting. So interesting as we learn these new pest of information. Thanks so much for joining us. Just moments after the congoulding collapsed were now hearing a first responder describe the horrific scene in Dispatch Audio obtained by cnn. Listen to this. We have a building almost gone. This is truly a global Rescue Effort here with Engineering Specialists from Around The World joining local officials. With me now is an israeli Defense Commander who is leading the israeli Rescue Team. Commander thank you so much for being here. You just came from file. Youve been working overnight. I can still see the dust on your boots which our Viewers Cant see here. Give me the latest in terms of what youre finding. In the last few hours we found some more people. You found more bodies. We found people. Unfortunately, they are not alive. We found some more tunnels. In those tunnels. There are from one hand new spaces we find and other we found more people but unfortunately not alive. You can give us a sense of how many people you recovered overnight . I cannot say the number because the family doesnt know yet. Talk to me about these tunnels because this is new and this is interesting. You are Finding Spaces and voids. We know thats very important because if theres any hope for survivors it will have to be in these tunnels and voids. Exactly what youre seeing. First of all when you say we theres hundreds of rescuers. 210 people working around the clock. The were only 15 working together. They found people with us. Were with them. Just as one body. And to your question this is a very complicated effort, professional effort. Support the building. Secure the responders. And try to open spaces. At this time it was between the balconies. So the balconies between them remains a big space of air. We probed in those tunnel, we called the people and unfortunately we didnt find anything. Spaces big enough to crawl inat this point. Yeah. I personally crawled in. You were in tunnels overnight looking. Yes. Thats new in terms of this Rescue Effort because everything before had been so compact. Yes. What makes it youve been a lot of places. What makes this one so difficult . The gap between the space, the gap between the layers, between the floors. These tunnels that we found right now were almost the first to be big enough to enable people to stay between them. Most of the collapse is very, very tight. The collapse was major. Do you have hope . I mean were nearly a week into the collapse now. The fact that you found these spaces and tunnels, whats the realistic hope you have at this point . Right now i can tell you its very, very minor. Very minor. We must be realistic. As i said, today is wednesday, right . Okay. So tomorrow will be one week. Okay. 24 hours. I get it. Youve been working so hard. Its hard to know what time of day it is let alone what day it is. Tomorrow will be one week. Yes, right. One week i still hope. You still hope. Why not at this point, do the work. This Sanu Development overnight to find these spaces after all this time. Does this mean youre approaching the site differently . Are there changes in how youre working . We picked up the scale. We entered heavy machinery to that perimeter of the site to expose new places exactly that the same place that i just described and it enables us to scale up the speed and to find those people. This is news and i think it may not be the news that families were hoping most for, but i think what they also suspect some sense of closure. These are key developments, i think, that youre providing right now. The strain on you and the other workers give us a sense of that. I think the thing that keeps us strong and focused is the fact that we have full support from your people and from home and from the community and from the families. They trust us. And we are working as long asneeded. Last question here given your vast experience, and i know you did recover some bodies overnight, are you surprised that one week in given the number of people unaccounted for, that relatively few have been recovered at this point . No. No. Because i know that a lot of people think that they can do the work differently. I am here day four, Okay. Its my fourth day. And i can say that we couldnt do things differently. I can assure the families that are looking at me, that the people here, your people, everyone are doing their job highly professional. Commander, we appreciate the Information Youve given us. More than anything we appreciate the work youre doing along with everyone else. This is truly a global effort and the entire world is behind what youre doing. Erratic back to you. New reporting in to cnn when it comes to criminal investigation into the Trump Organization. What prosecutors in New York are now focusing on. A big decision for House Speaker Nancy pelosi whether to put any republicans in charge of investigating the capitol insurrection. This may look like a regular movie night. But if youre a kid with diabetes, its more. Its the simple act of enjoying time with friends, knowing you understand your glucose levels. When technology is easier to use.

Finding something and the us takes Gold Dream on Dream On Dream On Dream On yes Ahhhhhhh Dream until your Dreams Come True just into cnn new York Prosecutors are scrutinizing Cash Bonuses at the Trump Organization as part of their investigation into the company and its employees for potential tax fraud. So this is brandnew. We didnt know bonuses might be involved. Thats right. This is new reporting. Sources told us that prosecutors are scrutinizing Cash Bonuses that were given to certain executives. This is part of this inquiry. They are looking at other benefits like rent free apartment, company cars, tuition. Cash bonuses is something we didnt know before. Our sources didnt say which executives received them or how much they were but whats very interesting here is that when you talk to Defense Lawyers and tax experts, few could find any cases that were criminal cases for any one or a company that had to do with perks like company car, apartment. But if you receive a Cash Bonus and off the books thats something that is, you know, routinely prosecuted in a criminal matter. This makes it very interesting that were still turning up more details about those bonuses and this comes as we are still expecting, you know, charges in this case to wrap as soon as this week. So definitely interesting development and well see how this plays out. Only a couple of days left. And a Holiday Weekend looming. House of representatives will vote this afternoon on establishing a select committee to investigate the January 6th insurrection with members of d. C. Police and Capitol Police invited to the gallery. Last month bipartisan independent commission was killed by senate republicans. Joining us now to discuss this is a congressional reporter at politico. As we look what will be laid out here, we know that for the republican members, five of them will be chosen in consultation with Kevin Mccarthy. He doesnt have carteblanche. There was a covid committee set up last year. But theres increasing concern among democrats Kevin Mccarthy would appoint some of the firebrand, far right trump rights like matt gaetz, those people are pushing to be appointed to the committee. So far Kevin Mccarthy has been tight lipped what he plans to do. I have a hard time imagining he would put those members on financial. But hell appoint people who are trusted trump allies and push back against democrats and play defense for trump. Lots of concerns among democrats about Who Mccarney will appoint. The republican who may be appointed as one of the eight vice Speaker Pelosi. One though who is not interested i found fascination who did the negotiation, right, before. Right. The reality here is that no matter what the issue is, if youre seen as being a Team Player for pelosi that puts a target on your back as a republican. A very tough reality for a lot of these folks even for republicans who voted for the commission or voted to impeach donald trump. Theres a small pool of people that Speaker Pelosi could choose from if she decides to tap a republican as one of her eight picks for the select committee. There are some other names who have been keeping their door open and that includes liz cheney. Some of the most Vocal Trump critics in the gop right now. Its unclear whether they have been considered. Those are the most obvious names that do come to mind if she decides to go that route. Police reform. Its frankly not looking great at the moment. Its on thin ice. Some infighting, some disagreement between the Law Enforcement groups in the community. Republicans are not signing on the deal. Deadline has slipped from may to june to july. Now unclear whether theres a possibility to move forward. We are trying to zone in on a Law And Order midterm message. Theres less of an appetite now than a few months ago. Not looking too good for Police Reform on capitol hill. Lets take a closer look with charlie dent. Always good to see you. Who would your picks be. Who would you put on this select committee . Well i would put on adam kingsinger, liz cheney. The challenge right now for gop members is nobody wants to be seen as Nancy Pelosis favorite republican. If youre seeking reelection this is not a good look politically but on the other hand ordinarily a high honor to serve on a highprofile investigation like this. But under these circumstances i think its rather challenging. I still say cheney might be best. It all depends on their own reelection. A hard political calculation. How will this play out with Kevin Mccarthy . I think Kevin Mccarthy will use his five selections and try to play defense. As best they can for trump. But if youre Kevin Mccarthy right now, what you dont want. You dont want the narrative of the midterm being this investigation. They medical you can allocation independent investigation would be more damaging to the gop in midterms. Kevin Mccarthy And Many Republicans will say this will be a par the at the san witchhunt. That this whole thing is stacked. Its unfair. Trump bash. I think thats how they will play with this. I dont agree but thats how they will play it because they dont have any good answers on what happened that day because of Trumps Incitement of the insurrection and some members who were complicit. I would be concerned too if i were gop leadership. Democrats have total control of the subpoenas. She had a shared responsibility for subpoenas on the independent commission but now democrats will run the Show And Subpoena whoever they like. I would be anxious. Mccarthy has to be careful. I dont think hell appoint the margaret taylorgreens. That would be terrible. Thats the face of the party in such a highprofile setting. Before i let you go, a vote to remove Confederate Statues yesterday. It had an interesting split of what we saw there. Im curious, whats your take on that in term of the calculus with that vote . Well to remove Confederate Statues . Look, i think its absolutely the appropriate thing to do for the federal government to remove Confederate Statues wherever they can. You know, we shouldnt be here to honor, you know, a traitorous cause. I got into these issues when i was in the Ohio State from time to time and we had issues of display of confederate flag and other confederate symbols and i was very much opposed to it and i cant imagine why anybody in this Day And Age would think its somehow Okay to continue to display these confederate images on federal property. I get it that historic sites like gettysburg is part of the story, we talked about it. But theres a proper historical context. For those who were placing up these Confederate Statues during jim crow, really serving no historical purpose. I think those need to be removed and its hard for any member i think to vote against it. Charlie dent always good to see you the. Thank you. Sure. More on our breaking news. A Rescue Team leader just telling John Berman moments ago of new discovery overnight including tunnels. How one 11yearold is helping her classmates families of those unaccounted for. Aging is a journey. You cant always know whats ahead. Since 1995, seniors have opened their doors to right at home for personalized care. To be their guide. To steer them through uncharted territory. And when it comes right down to it, to keep them safe at home. After all, home is the best place to be. Right at home, navigating whats to come. This morning 12 people are confirmed dead and 149 unaccounted for in the surfside Condo Collapse. People who lived there are still hoping for any good news, friends and. Loved ones as the Rescue Operations continue. Joining me now is a mother and an 11yearold. Two of her classmates lived at the condo at the time of the collapse and now raising money for those families which is herroic. Just tell me how did you find out about the Condo Collapse . Well, so at the time of the collapse i was in orlando, and when i woke up my mom already found out. So she told me. I honestly didnt know how to react. I was very, very stunned, shocked. And then of course i started sobbing because i was very close friends with two of the kids that were involved in the accident, and it was very, very heartbreaking for me to know that they might not come out alive. What do you know about your friends at this point . I know that one of them is safe, which im so grateful for. And the other is still unaccounted for. She has been buried under the rubble, we are thinking. And its scary. Its scary and its sad. Its hard. It really is. But youre trying to help now. Tell us what youre doing. I start ad Go Fund me on thursday try and raise money for the people who are involved in the crashing, and because i wanted to do what i could to help from orlando. You know, i understand the desire to help. You feel helpless in a situation like this. So, talk to me about this effort and why its important to you. Yeah. Right now i think that the whole community here very tight. Everybody really wants to find a way to help in some way. Like we wish we could clear rubble. We wish we could help everyone. So navah told me that morning she wanted to start a Go Fund he me. I was a little hesitant but i said i dont want to dissuade her, i want her to follow her successful. Shes raised quite a bit much money. How much have you raised . Almost 09,000. Thats wonderful. Identify spoken to some family and people that have been through this. If they survive which is so lucky to begin with, they lost everything. Everything in their homes. Everything. Talk to me about the sense of unknowing at this point and the difficulty for this community as were now nearly a week in and still 149 people unaccounted for. I think that the message that the parents, our friends, our parents, our community, the message that were trying to relate to the children is to stay hopeful because miracles happen. They have happened in the past. But, you know, we obviously know that things are getting less likely that those miracles will come in large numbers. So were preparing ourselves, preparing our children, our families for, you know, the grief. Theres been loss here. Theres grief. No way around that. Good things happen when people do good things and youre doing a good thing here, navah. We put the Go Fund me page up on the screen if people want to help thats a good place to go. Thank you for being with us. Thank you very much. One question among many as engineers try to figure out a cause of the collapse, what role, if any does Climate Change and rising Sea Levels what will they play in all of this.

S. Coronavirus case with less than half of the u. S. Population fully vaccinated Health Experts worry regions with lower levels of virus protection, behavioral fewer people who are vaccinated that those areas could really start to see surges and continue into fall and winter. This has been a concern from the beginning, right . It has. I dont think that anyone thought we would be seeing such disparities, that so many regions where there are great Vaccination Rates and so many regions of the u. S. That really have pretty poor Vaccination Rates and this Delta Variant, it is taking advantage of that. Its really a problem. This Delta Variant is more transmissible, spread more quickly and also it can get you a whole lot sicker than previous versions of coronavirus according to some data thats coming out of england. Lets take a look what this virus is doing, or this variant is doing in the United States . If you look in late april or early may only about 3 of all the coronavirus cases at that time were this Delta Variant. Not much at all. Move forward a couple of weeks it became 3 . Move forward a couple more weeks it became 10 . Just watch it grow to a point where in midjune it was 26 . Growing very quickly. Widely expected that it will become the dominant variant so this variant that appears to make people even sicker can be the dominant variant. Thats a problem for univaced people. For vaccinated people its not such a problem and heres why. Take a look at this. For vaccinated people its the vaccine is 79 effective at keeping you from getting infected with that Delta Variant. Could you get infected . Sure. Chances are you wont. It is 96 effective at keeping you out of the hospital. In other words, you might get infected with Delta Variant and might know someone. It could happen. Chances are you wont get that sick and the purpose of vaccines is one vaccine, the purpose of a vaccine is to keep you out of the hospital and the morgue. If you get a little bit sick its not the end of the world. Theres a lot of confusion when it comes to masks. L. A. County Health Officials just recommended fully vaccinated people continue to mask up inside. What should we all be taking away from this . Should we start wearing masks again for fully vaccinated. I think a lot depends where you live. Theres place in the United States where theres not that much coronavirus around so you dont need to worry as much. Other the places where theres really quite a bit. Our colleague Don Lemon talked to dr. Anthony fauci about this Last Night. Lets take a listen. If you are not vaccinated you are at considerable risk. When you have such a low level of vaccination, super imposed upon a variant that has a high agree of efficiency of spread what youll see among under vaccinated region, be them states, cities or counties youll see these individual types of blips. Its almost like its going to be two americas. I was just speak with dr. Fauci about this came and he said one of the concerns here is that in these pockets of america where there arent a lot of vaccinated people that the variants will grow and grow. Youll get a variant, as more virus circulating more chance of guesting new variants and we might get a variant where the vaccine doesnt work as well and that would be an even big are problem. That would pose a problem for those of us that have been vaccinated. As we try to increase the vaccination. Nice to see you in person. The wnba says 99 of its players are fully vaccinated. Thats highest reported percentage of vaccinated players in any major u. S. Professional sports league. How did they do it . Joining me now the wnba commissioner. Great to have you this morning. How did you do it . Well, as with any complex topic especially involving medical science it started with listening. Players association led Vaccine Education efforts back in december, prior to our season and that was so key in helping players learn more about the vaccine, answer questions, concerns than our Health And Safety experts that meet in sessions with our teams. These players are so impressive. One of their concerns is Health Equity how important coming off the pandemic and. That included informing our eco system, including the fans about the Health Benefits and we debuted a Player Led Vaccine public Service Announcement during our draft in April And Several Players with a tag line, our health is worth a shot. It spoke to our diverse league. It spoke to black women and Black Americans who died at a disproportionate rate from covid. You said conversations started back in december if there were concerns. Was there much hesitancy amongst players there was. They had a lot of great questions. These are young diverse women. And they had some good questions about the science. They had questions about who was in the clinical trial. Yes. There were lots of questions. Obviously fertility was on the list and, you know, what would be their lifestyle if they got vaccinated, what protocols would we lift because we have pretty strict protocols coming off our bubble last year. So, yes. Lots of questions. You mentioned your numbers are off the charts compared to some of the other leagues which is great. And the involvement you have with the players, the psa, other Outreach Efforts they have done. I wonder as we talk about the increase in more transmissible, more dangerous variant, the urgency for vaccinations, do you anticipate bringing the players back for maybe round two to help encourage southeast folks in other areas of the country who maybe havent been vaccinated that now is the time . Yeah. I think were continue ndong result with public Health And Government officials and Infectious Disease Experts and you just had the segment on the Delta Variant. Were educate ago round that being much more infectious and serious risk to univaced people. But the data read out, this vaccine still works. Yes. Were happy to lead. These players are amazing. When they lead they are Role Models in society. Thank you. Thank you. More now on our breaking news. A Rescue Leader at surfside, florida telling John Berman crews discovered tunnels inside trouble.

When we can also consider the health of the planet. Our innovations in Data Storage are reducing co2 emissions. Well never stop innovating for a healthier, more sustainable world. Fujifilm value from innovation some of the biggest purveyors of americas cancel culture are the same ones who claim its a crisis. This week u. S. Hammer Thrower Gwen Berry turned away from the flag during olympic trials. She has a history of protesting. She was told the anthem would be played before she walked out. U. S. Track and field said it was played according to schedule. I never said that i hated the country. Never said that. All i said was, i respect my people enough to not stand or acknowledge something that disrespects them. I love my people, point, blank, period. Whatever the reason and whatever you may think of berrys protest, it is protected under one of the basic tenet of this democracy, free speech. Unless, of course, you disagree with her point of view. If miss berry is so embarrassed by america, then there is no reason she needs to compete for our country. Exactly. She should be removed from the olympic team. That is republican senator Tom Cotton, the same Tom Cotton who vehemently denounced being canceled for speaking your mind. This is no laughing matter because the cancel culture threatens the very principles of free inquiry and open debate upon which our society is based. The same Tom Cotton who railed against being canceled after the New York times oped got so much backlash from those who felt it was inaccurate and inflammatory, The One he called for sending the military to deal with american protesters. I published an oped there that said simply, while we respect peaceful protesters, we can have Zero Tolerance for looting. So he supports peaceful protesters, but hed like to cancel Gwen Berry. Then there is congressman dave crenshaw. We dont need more activist athletes. She should be removed from the team. The entire point of the olympic team is to represent the United States of america. Thats the entire point, Okay. Its a pretty diverse country. He not only wants to cancel Gwen Berry but thinks thats a quota on activists. This is the same Time Crenshaw who said its time to cancel cancel culture over statues. Wake up, america, he wrote. When he said major League Baseball moved the game out of tlapt after georgias new restrictive voting laws. What is fascism . Well, its the, its the regimentation of the economy, of society and its the forced suppression of, of your opposition. Thats whats happening right now. The democrats have successfully captivated the institutions, pop culture, hollywood, our education i think institutions. Now our corporations into their own woke agenda. This is fascism, right. And they use cancel culture as a tool to impose their fascism on us. So, cancel culture is bad for many republicans, only if it favors their point of view, but it is perfectly fine to cancel someone with whom they disagree. Republican Congressman Paul Goh Saturd Gosar has no idea about a group despite defending his upcoming appearance. Laura jarrett is here to explain. Still scratching my head on this one. Reporter this all starts Monday Night when a Fundraising Flyer began circulating on Social Media proenting an event with congressman gosar. Its for America First pact. A group run by Nick Fuentes. A White Supremacist and Holocaust Denier who called the Capitol 6 attack awesome. Congressman gosar who promoted the Big Lie himself and called the rioters peaceful patriots initially appeared to defend his appearance with fuentes. Quote, not sure why everyone is freaking out. There are millions of gen y, z, and xors. They dont agree on every issue. Cnns Manu Raju asked about the event and claimed he didnt know about a fundraiser happening friday saying, quote, i have no idea whats going on. Well see whether it goes forward, but the Pair Have appeared together before. And, erica, if they do it again, you might say why are we giving oxygen to Crazy Town . Why are we giving oxygen to all the Conspiracy Theorists . The reality is this is a sitting member of congress. He has important Committee Assignments and his constituents deserve to know exactly who hes hanging out with. Speaking of constituents who deserve to know, there is also a republican party, it is an official i believe in oregon. Yes. Who is separately under fire for his association with a white nationalist pronazi group. Whats happening there . All right. So, this one is thanks to our kfile team. The Mans Name is solomon yuway. He is backtracking over a March Appearance he made on youtube on a show by someone named Grayson Arnold. He has a history of antisemitism.
