At this hour, were following two developing stories. In washington, d. C. , police are On High alert preparing for saturdays Farright Rally in support of those charges in the January 6 insurrection. Crews began fencing off the u. S. Capitol overnight. Amid concerns that some rallygoers may be armed. Capitol police have requested assistance from the d. C. National guard in case there is any violence. Were also monitoring developments on the pandemic as the biden Administrations Booster Shot campaign faces serious questions this morning. Fda Vaccine Advisers are going to meet tomorrow to debate whether there is enough proof that a Booster Dose of Pfizers Vaccine is safe and effective. The White House wants to begin Offering Boosters as early as next week. And now that plan is in jeopardy. Were going to talk to an expert about that in just a moment. But lets start with our Nations Capitol On High alert. Cnns Shimon Prokupecz is live outside of the capitol with our top story. Shimon, months after being taken down, the fencing around the capitol is now back up. Reporter yeah, it is back up, boris. And most people waking up this morning who were out here for a run Saw A much different Capitol Hill Fencing going up overnight and into the morning. The Construction Workers are done now. The fencing is here. Theyve bolted it down. Theyve used these concrete barriers to sort of help keep it down. But it is also meant to protect against any vehicles, cars that may try to enter the capitol. Of course authorities here On High alert, concerned of possible threats of unrest with the rally that is expected on saturday. There is so much concern here that this entire area now around the capitol, the perimeter of the capitol, is basically fenced in. It is still open, people can go in today. But i suspect that is going to change probably by tomorrow. Certainly by Saturday People will not be allowed to enter the capitol grounds. But the fencing stretches all the way to the corner, around the block and then around and on independence and comes back around the entire perimeter closed off. The big question is the National Guard and how will they be assisting the Capitol Police. Will we be seeing them behind these fences . That is unclear. But we do know that the Capitol Police did ask for Assistance And T and the pentagon is going to help with them that. And attempted at the u. S. Capitol, it is not a bad idea to have extra security there. Thank you so much. So lets talk about who is actually going to be there. The organizer of this Weekends Rally in support of insurrectionists is trying to downplay the threat of violence that shimon was talking about. He tells cnn that he expects a largely peaceful crowd. Lets get to cnns Whitney Wild who joins us now. This is a former trump aide, what else is he saying about what is going to happen on saturday . Reporter well hes laying out a couple of Ground Rules for the hundreds of people, Law Enforcement are expecting to arrive. A couple of the Ground Rules, boris, are dont wear political paraphernalia. Supposedly on its face this is an effort to try to distance themselves from the politics and for meme charged in their role in January 6. And he also said travel in groups and be respectful of security and Law Enforcement. The organizer of this event, matt brainard, pushing these potential people coming to washington to be especially cognizant of following the rules, following the laws and not bringing weapons, here is what he told cnn. Weve got a larmly peaceful crowd. Weve had two events In Washington, d. C. So far at Department Of Justice and at the prison and there have been no incidents so far. No one is bringing a weapon that is part of our crowd. I could assure the police that. Reporter that is the hope. However, the reality, could be very different. It only takes one person to cause an enormous problem, to do something outrageous. Law enforcement is not taking that chance. That is why you see the fence up. The Police Chief saying if it all goes well and there is no problems, the fence will come down shortly after september 18th. No way to take in any chances. Thank you for that. So where are lawmakers going to be, especially the republicans trying to revise the history of January 6. Some republican lawmakers are trying to distance themselves from this Farright Rally. Though some democrats are eagler to hold them accountable for the fallout from January 6. Melanie zanona is live In Washington with new reporting. Melanie, republican leader Kevin Mccarthy has said that he doesnt believe that any republicans are going to be taending this event. Reporter that is right. And were hearing this are no republican members expected to speak nor are they promoting on the event and some have encouraged people not to go warning it is a trap. There is clearly concern in the gop about this being a potential weapon used against them by democrats and worried about the political fallout but no republicans, including Kevin Mccarthy have condemned this rally or the cause. In fact there are several members of congress who have spoken out in support of the jails insurrectionists and there are multiple gop congressional candidates who are speaking on saturday. A sign that they view this as beneficial for their congressional campaigns. Look, i think Mccarthy And Gop leaders find themselves in a tough spot. They dont want to be seen as proinsurrectionist but the base believes the Big Lie and believes the attack was justified. Adam kinzinger is one of the few republicans call out trumps lies about the election. He was asked about this on new day. Take a listen to what he had to say. If we have to have this fence put up every time somebody that hates the federal government goes and rallies, it is time for the republican party to denounce militiaism and to say we are a country that takes our disagreements an we discuss them in congress. We dont do this violently. Reporter so even if republicans dont attend the rally on saturday, it could pose a new set of headaches for party. Boris. Representative kinzinger on an island with that argument. Melanie, thank you so much. We want to pivot now to the pandemic. Because there is still major questions surrounding Americas Booster Shot campaign. Fda Vaccine Advisers are set to meet tomorrow to sort out whether to approve the Pfizer Request for a Booster Dose as new data appears to support the argument for an additional shot. Joining us now is carlos del rio, the dean at the emory University School of medicine and we should note that dr. Del rio was involved in the trials for modernas vaccine. Doctor, thank you for joining us this morning. Youve been skeptical about the need for boosters right now and you are not the only one. I want to you listen to the head of the national institute of Health Dr. Francis collins, what he told cnn last night. I will tell you, i was one of the biggest skeptics of the docs in the White House about boosters and ive become convinced particularly looking at israeli data, chris. And a lot of that will be presented on friday. Because israel is about three months ahead of us. They got most of the Population Immunized in airppril and they could see that the people got immunized back in january, by the time you got to july, their protection would really tart to drop off. Not just against any infection, but against severe infection. Doctor, youve suggested that pfizer has been promoting the idea of boosters in the united states potentially without the necessary data to back that argument up. What do you see in the data . Are boosters necessary starting next week . Well, boris, what im seeing right now, what dollins is referring to is a paper published yesterday in the new England Journal of medicine from israel showing that in people who received a third dose, a socalled Booster Shot in israel over the age of 60, they had a 11fold greater increase in their protection against infection and a 19 increase in 19 increase in protection against severe disease. So there is a benefit of boosters based on that data. Particularly in people over the age of 60. I dont think that i think that the data for people over the age of 60 is increasingly very clear and i think a Boost Ser likely to be required for them. Im not sure if it is required for everybody. If you are 30 and you got immunized you may not need to line up to get a booster right now and that is probably what well hear tomorrow from the fda advisory committee. And youve argued that getting the Unvaccinated On Board and getting shots in those arms is potentially a bigger priority than Booster Shots, is that correct . Well that is absolutely correct. We have close to 100,000 people in the hospital right now in our country. And i could tell that you 90 plus percent of those hospitalize ready not vaccinated. So getting more vaccine to the people already vaccinated is go to do very little to sort of lessen the burden of our hospitals and Icu And Health Care System and decrease mortality. Close to 2,000 americans are now dying daily as a result of covid. We have to get the unvaccinated vaccinated in order to really change the course of the pandemic. Doctor, i find it interesting that the fda has been so reliant on this data coming out of israel. Specifically because israel in terms of population and in terms of number of people that have been vaccinated there, it makes an imperfect model for the united states. What do you make of that . Well, we have to also remember that there is a Clinical Trial, right. Moderna, pfizer, j j, novavax all have now completed their analysis on their first cut under phase three trial. Theyre still following the participants. So there is data that pfizer will present from the Clinical Trial data and i think well see similar results out of that. Im looking forward to looking at Data Tomorrow because we have more than just the israeli data. And doctor, we mentioned at the top you were part of the team that helped test the moderna vaccine. Moderna has come out and saiding it is working on a new type of booster that would protect people against potential Future Variants. How exactly would that work . Well there is a lost work happening right now, trying to develop what we call a pana coronavirus vaccine. A vaccine that will target that the current variants of covid that are in circulation will be attacked but Future Variants and future classes of coronavirus because we have come to realize, boris, that coronavirus is the most dangerous virus coming forward into the future. When we think about future pandemics, this will not be the last pandemic we see in the coronavirus and we need to prepared for future ones. A daunting note to end our conversation. Dr. Carlos del rio, we appreciate your expertise. Happy to be with you. Coming up, top gymnasts blaming the fbi for not stopping a President Tor from sexual abusing other girls. Will any fbi officials face criminal charges . Well discuss with two experts next. Charlotte charl every day can be extraordinary with rich, creamy, Delicious Fage total yogurt.

And even his kids. And their kids. Usaa is made for all whove honorably served and their families. Are we still exclusive . Absolutely. And thats exactly why you should join. Demands for justice are growing louder as four top gymnasts take on the fbi. The four bravely telling their horrifying stories of being sexual abused by their former usa Gymnastics Team Doctor Larry Nassar. All four women during testimony before Congress Yesterday squarely blaming the fbi for Turning A Blind Eye on them. The gymnasts and senators alike are calling for the agent who mishandled the case to be prosecuted. These fbi agents have committed an obvious crime. They falsifying my statement and that is illegal in itself. Yet no recourse has been taken against them. The Department Of Justice refused to prosecute these individuals. The Inspector Generals findings in his July Report paid a shocking paint of Fbi Dereliction of duty and gross incompetence. It is not just those two fbi employees who are to blame. This failure was systematic. There must be accountability for the individuals and institutions that enabled Larry Nassar, anything else is unacceptable. Lets discuss these systemic failures an the potential for accountability with asha rangappa, a legal and national Security Analyst and jennifer rogers, a cnn legal analyst. Asha, lets start with you. The two agents that lied about the investigation, one of them has been fired, the other one left the bureau of their own accord. But as you just heard, the survivors who testified and at least some of the senators want to see criminal charges. How likely do you think that is to happen . I think it depends on what these individuals were told when they spoke to the office of the Inspector General. So, the office of Inspector General basically compelled some of the witnesses, including the supervisor Special Agent to sit down for interviews after the Department Of Justice declined to prosecute them for misconduct. And so in that situation, boris, you have kind of the similar situation you had in the Bill Cosby case, that if you then use statements that they made to prosecute them, that is a violation of their fifth amendment rights. So i think it really depends on what promises were made and about what conduct. But if there is lying to to the Inspector General or other misconduct that doj didnt promise them that they would not prosecute, that could potentially still be on the the table. I think we need to learn more about that possibly from the Department Of Justice. Jennifer, both the Biden And Trump administrations looked at this and decided not to prosecute as asha pointed out. Justice department officials refused to request to appear at this hearing. I want to you listen to what Ali Raisman said about that this morning on the today show. Here she is. Very disappointing that nobody from the Department Of Justice came. It just to me sends a message that they didnt think that it was worth their time, which is really concerning. That issue, i think speaks volumes about where the doj stands on, why do you think No One from doj was at this hearing and can this public Pressure Campaign change the calculus here . Well, i think it could change the calculus as far as whether we hear from doj about this. I dont think it will change a calculus about Decision Making in terms of criminal charges because i think those decisions have been made and doj likes to keep a close hold on its prosecutorial discretion and didnt like other folks telling it what to do. I understand the anger at doj not showing up to defend their decisions. Again, those decisions are made behind closed doors, doj typically doesnt explain why or why not in terms of criminal charges. But i understand the frustration with them not at least coming in and giving some explanation of the way that they typically decide these cases. Something to kind of give the victims some sense that doj is listening to them and is concerned about what happened here. So i wouldnt be surprised to see them appear at another hearing to explain some of those things. But you would not expect them to be willing to give a deep dive into the Decisionmaking Process because doj typically refused to do that in all cases. And that is something that the survivors as you noted are furious with. Lets Play Mckayla maroneys account with her interview with an fbi agent. She said that she described her encounters with nassar, the abuse in a Threehour Phone Call and some of the testimony that is just really infuriating. Here it is. I begun crying at the memory over the phone and there was just dead silence. I was so shocked at the Agencys Silence and disregard for my trauma and after that minute of silence, he asked, is that all . Those words in itself was one of the worst moments of this entire process for me. To have my abuse be minimized and disregarded by the people who were supposed to protect me. Asha, as a former fbi Special Agent, when you heard that, what was your reaction . I was shocked. I read the oIg Report. I cant imagine where this kind of interview would be conducted over the phone. Not only is it a sensitive interview, a sensitive victim interview, but it is really important to be facetoface, to be able to, you know, have that meaningful Back And Forth to make the interviewee comfortable and also to read the other signals going on. And so that is just the tip of the iceberg in terms of kind of the lackadaisical approach at best and complete Malfeasance And Dereliction of duty at worst in terms of handling of this. This was the only one interview they did of three victims that were. What im worried about here is both with the way this was shandled and if there is no criminal followup with some of the more egregious behavior. This could chill a lot of future reporting. I mean, weve seen people who are complicit in not following their moral duty when they see things that happen and dont report it. But these fbi agents had a legal duty to follow, that they didnt. And i think that this could have Ripple Effects when people say, wow, you know, if the Fbi Wont handle this, who will . And i think that would be a really, really unfortunate consequence of what is being uncovered. We have to end this portion of the conversation there. We thank you both for joining us. The broader conversation about these brave women and their testimony doesnt end though. Coming up later this hour, were going to speak with Normer Gymnast Rachel den haller, the first to name Larry Nassar as her sexual abuser. Stay with cnn. Well be right back.

And later in afternoon, president biden will again make another pitch on his economic agenda. It comes as cnn has learned that Treasury Secretary Janet yellen called Mitch Mcconnell to discuss the looming Debt Limit that is just a few weeks ago. Mcconnell has vowed to oppose raising the Debt Ceiling. Here so discuss is assistant Speaker Congresswoman Catherine clark. We appreciate you being on with us today. Senator Mcconnells Spokesperson told Cnn Daniela Diaz and Betsy Klein that the Minority Leader told the treasury secretary, it is a unified Democrat Government engaging in a partisan reckless Tax And Spending Spree And Theyll have to raise the Debt Ceiling on their own and they have the tools to do it. Should democrats raise the Debt Ceiling without help from republicans . Oh, good to be with you, boris. And let me tell you what needs to happen. Mitch mcconnell and the Gop Need to come to the table. This Debt Creting is about the full Faith And Credit of the united states. It is about not hurting our economy as we are starting to emerge back from this pandemic and it is a fundamental responsibility of members of congress that we pay for this debt. What we have seen is the gop and Mitch Mcconnell running up the Credit Card and then turning around and saying we dont have anything to do with this. It is unacceptable, we need to come back to the table and get this done. So cnn has reported that leaders in your party are talking about attaching a Debt Limit increase on to the Mustpass Spending Bill to keep the government open. Bring us up to speed on where the discussions stand. Were going to do what we need to do to be good guardians of our economy and of the fiscal soundness of this country. When the republicans were in charge and had the majorities in the White House, we helped them because it is so fundamental. This isnt a partisan discussion. This is about the united states government. And meeting the challenge of working families. And so we will get this done however we need to. But at the same time, we are working on that build back better agenda, to put working families and the focus of the policies and investments that were making for far too long it has been on the wealthy and the biggest corporations and it is time to change that. And bring those families into the discussion and make the investments that they need to meet the historic challenges theyre facing. Congresswoman, ive spoken to some economists including Mark Zandi of moodies that say we should do away from the Debt Ceiling and that is it produced Drama And Kabuki Theater And Wouldnt allow the u. S. To fall on its debts. Doesnt it make more sense to end the Zet Ceiling if it is not making congress more fiscally responsible . I completely agree. We are one of just two or three countries that still have this. And it is time that we get through this Drama And Theater that the gop like to make about fundamental responsibilities and once again put the focus on working families. The true urgency here is around a a dressing climate change. It is around making sure that the one in four women who have been forced out of the Work Force are able to get back to work because they have the childcare and the Home Care that they need. It is about making sure that every family can, you know, can buy the Prescription Drugs and afford them that they need. And have the Health Care their families need to address this pandemic and the challenges ahead for them. So, thats where our focus is. And were going to make sure that we do all of these things, because that is why families sent us to congress. To take action for them and make sure that we rebuild an economy that works for everyone. Certainly some hurdles ahead from your party. Namely in the form of senators Joe Manchin and kyrsten sinema. Well be watching and hopefully well hear from you again soon.

South Carolina Lawyer Alex Murdaugh has just surrendered to authorities after admitting to hiring a Hit Man to kill him so his son could collect a 10 Million life insurance policy. The Hit Man he allegedly hire is already being held at the same jail. Cnns Martin Savidge is live in South Carolina with a breaking details. Martin, you are a veteran grizzled reporter, youve reported a lot of odd and strange stories. Layers, this is like a soap opera. This is a weird. It is. It is so many different Lay Erds and noer another one that is the attorney is now in the custody of Law Enforcement. It happened about 15, 20 minutes ago. It was a pretty moderate affair. In essence he was already in the back of an suv that pulled up to the hampton county Law Enforcement center and it appears he wasnt already in custody but under the care of Law Enforcement judging by one of the people that got out, they pulled in between two gates as is common practice and then you see him led inside of the building. It is believed, according to his attorneys, that he is wanted in connection with what is considered to be the Insurance Fraud Scam in which he tried to have himself murdered by a hitman, but that all went wrong when allegedly the hitman didnt kill him. But only wounded him in the head and that plan unraveled and that is how Law Enforcement came to bring him into custody. But of course, before all of that, he has suffered the loss of his wife and son. Both who are gruesomely murdered. So there is a Drug Addiction that his family now said that hes been suffering. So all of that led him so such a dark place that he felt he had to commit this crime. Well wait for the hearing later today, boris. Just an odd story. We appreciate you walking us through that.

Attorney general Merrick Guard Land is testify before congress next month about the fbis failures in investigating the massive sexual Assault Scandal involving former usa Gymnastics Team Doctor Larry Nassar. Four of the most decorated olympic gymnasts told gutwrenching stories of abuse and how it could have been stopped. Here is simone biles. I asked that your work be guided by the same question that Rachel Denhollander and many others have asked. How much is a little Girl Worth . I sit before you today to raise my voice to that no little girl must endure what i, the athletes at this table, and the countless others who needlessly suffered under Nassars Guise of medical treatment which we suffer and continue to suffer because No One in the fbi, usag or the usopc did what was necessary to protect us. We have been failed, and we deserve answers. Joining us now is former gymnast rachel, the first woman to speak publicly about Larry Nassars abuse. Rachel, were so grateful to have you today. I want to start with the question that you asked in court at Larry Nassars sentencing. How much is a little Girl Worth . What was it like to hear that during congressional testimony . And how are you doing today . That testimony yesterday was Gut Wrenching, because that question, how much is a little girl, how much is a little boy, how much is a Person Worth is the question that really hangs in the balance here. And what we saw yesterday, and what we have seen demonstrated over and over and over again by usag and usopc and the very Law Enforcement that was supposed to protect us is people are not worth very much to them. And its Gut Wrenching to sit with the reality of the damage thats been done that could have and should have been stopped. And for all of us to continually have to keep raising our voices, and fighting not just an abuser but a system that protected him is exhausting and retraumatizing. Its a reminder that its not just the abuser who is untrustworthy. Its everybody around you, too. And youve been raising your voice publicly in court as well about the abuse that you survived. I have to tell you that watching you confront Larry Nassar overcoming any Hesitation Or Fear that you might have had about telling your story, thats courage. And its inspiring, and im curious what it takes for you to do that, to do what we saw your fellow survivors do yesterday. Its an incredible burden to carry. And thats really why i wrote my book, what is a Girl Worth. I want people to understand what its like to have to speak up, and whats really going on inside our Justice System. And to get a behind the scenes look at the nassar investigation, and what it actually took to stop him. It helps peel back the layers of what survivors are facing every single day. Not just their own personal trauma and the personal cost, but the systems that more often than not are protecting abusers on a daily basis. We have to start wrestling with this reality and asking what has to change, because what we saw yesterday in the Fbi Hearing is just a blownup picture of what survivors are living every single day, and weve got to start grappling with that reality. I want to make clear for the folks at home youre an attorney. So in terms of the legal aspects of a case, you know what youre talking about. The survivors and several of the senators at the hearing called for the fbi agents who botched this investigation to be prosecuted, but twice now under both the Trump And Biden administrations, Department Of Justice officials looked at the case. They declined to prosecute. You have a chance right now to send them a message. Do you think they need to act and revisit this case . Do you see grounds for a criminal prosecution here . Absolutely. If a citizen were to behave lying to the Department Of Justice and investigators the same way these fbi agents behaved, you can bet there would be grounds for criminal charges. There are grounds for criminal charges here. The question is whether or not we care enough to do it and if Action Isnt taken, then the Message Everybody is sending is it doesnt matter what you do as Law Enforcement. Because were not going to hold you accountable. So yes, sending that message loud and clear is absolutely critical. Rachel, it does strike me as were talking about the Department Of Justice that no doj officials appeared at the hearing. A couple of them including the Attorney General are going to appear before the same committee next month. First, whats your reaction to doj officials not being there, and what do you want to see lawmakers ask them during that hearing . I was very upset that they were not there, because, again, what it communicates is this isnt a priority, and when you communicate this isnt a priority, it tells survivors you dont matter and theres no reason to speak up because our Justice System isnt going to protect you anyway. Their lack of presence, they sent that message loud and clear. What i hope to see coming out of next month is a push for Honesty And Transparency not just about what happened, but about why Theres Nothing being done about it and what has to change to enable something to be done about it. That goes al to the power that the senate has. The reality is Immunity Laws in the state are almost a complete bar often to criminal prosecution of bad acting Law Enforcement, and almost always a complete bar to civil prosecution. Civil cases against Law Enforcement who have caused incredible damage through corruption and gross negligence. Until we have mechanisms for holding Law Enforcement accountable, we created a system where they have all the Power And None of the accountability. We have to start having hard questions. The doj needs to act. The senate needs to act too. They have a lot of power to make an impact from a legislative standpoint if they value the women and the children around them. And rachel, after the Ig Report came out detailing you the fbi mishandled the case, you told Kate Bolduan on this show that this is a common problem that survivors walk through all the time. Given the publicity it is. Youre attracting to the story, do you think that this specific story may change the calculus here, change things . Well, again, thats going to depend on our willingness to act. Because the reality is that you dont get good trained Law Enforcement. The difference between what Detective Mumford was able to accomplish and the Assistant Ag in 15 months versus what the fbi accomplished in the same amount of time, that shows us that this can be done. You can approach these investigations and you can do them very, very well in a traumainformed way that changes the world. We can stop child and sexual abusers. The question is whether or not were going to equip our Law Enforcement to do that, and then also have Mechanisms Accountable for when they dont and when they act corruptly like the fbi did. Equipping and training requires resources. It requires prioritizing. Getting Law Enforcement and prosecutors who actually can do what andrea and angela did. That requires resources. It also requires legislative changes so there are safeguards and accountability mechanisms in place when you have that acting Law Enforcement. Whether or not were going to make those changes is what were going to have to watch in the next coming year. Theres a lot of ability to do the right thing. The willingness is the question. It is a huge question. And given all the hurdles youve had to jump in just telling your story, we tremendously appreciate you sharing your story with us this morning.
