Thai navy seal who volunteered to help has died. His oxygen ran out while he was navigating those underwater tunnels. The governor there says the air in the cave where the boys are is still safe and that they can run around and play. Rescue teams have also drilled more than 100 holes in the cave looking for an opening, but thus far, to no avail. Asia correspondent jonl than miller is there on the scene, and jonathan, can you talk to us a little bit more about the holes and of the 118 potential. I mean, what are they just trying anything . I think they are, brook. Yeah. Look, the situation is so desperate that and the getting out of the caves through these dangerous semisubmerged and often completely submerged tunnels, so incredibly dangerous for these 12yearold boys. The death of that navy seal is really focused minds here and had difficult and how dangerous that is. Any alternative means of escape from that chamber is being looked at very seriously. So far theyve only managed to get down not far enough. Its about halfway down towards the chamber in which the boys are trapped. The items will flood, but theyll still got that option of looking for sinkholes until the rain starts. Which is quickly in terms of the rain starting. I mean, is that days . Can you give a quick timeline on that, jonathan . They are scattered showers all the time. Theres been a bit of rain here today. The really heavy rain, while we thought it was going to be later this weekend, may hit early next week. That would be ideal. That would be. Jonathan miller, thank you so much for being there for us. Lets talk more about this. Butch behind rick is with us. Seasoned rescue diver. Butch, lets just start with thank you so much for coming on. I want to start with you on these 100 holes that rescuers have drilled trying to find a root to save these boys, but they say theres only 18 potential. Your take on that . Its an incredible chance that they hit something that worked, it would be great. As you pointed out already, theyre still looking at their main option as bringing them out through the water, possibly under water. And given the fact that a former Thai Navy Seal died, his oxygen ran out. I understand is can lap, right, when you are navigating these sorts of caves and tunnels. How do you feel about these boys, some of whom cant swim, attempting this. Oshlgly we said that the option you mentally had to accept the fact that none of them could swim. We would be looking at a total group of nonswimmers. One of the difficulties for the divers other than the actual trained cave divers, theyre not wearing redundant breathing system. Theyre going in with a single scuba tank with compressed air, and theyre not able to have a secondary alternate air source. When an emergency system occurs, they dont have a backup plan for the rescuers, including the navy seals. If they do attempt this with the boys under water to get out of the caves, and some places are quite dark, are the boys attached to these seals . How do they navigate the waters along side these rescuers . Boys would actually be, as i have pointed out once before, kind of like in a pouch of a mother kangaroo. Basically they would be encapsulateed in a full face mask or some sort of a mask that allows them to breathe. Certainly some protective equipment, clothing, wet suits. We dont want them cutting get. Our boys would basically be trained, talked to, taught, trained how to deal with the concept. Theyre going to be just still, and the rescuers are going to basically carry them out like the mother of a kangaroo. Wow. Bruce behind rick, thank you so much. Well talk more as we get more information. I hear you, and it just sounds is sounds rescue ri risky. We still have no actual answers about how many children are still detained. How many are still alone in a country foreign to them. Senator Elizabeth Warren. Senator killibrand, and the mayor of new york city, bill de blasio, have already called for isis abolition. A leading candidate for governor of new york. Actually even appallingly called this agency a terrorist organization. The American People have a right to their opinions, but these spurus attacks on ice by our political leaders must stop. He didnt answer that question. A tale of two economies now. U. S. Jobs booming. Businesses adding more than 213,000 jobs in june. A sign of a Strong Healthy economy. This positive jobs report comes as President Trump officially launches a massive trade war with china after months of escalating tensions. China, i mean, calling it the biggest trade war, their quote, in history, striking back with retaliatory tariffs. Cnn joins uz live from the floor of that New York Stock Exchange to talk to us about the impact. Who is most impacted here. Well, first of all, a trade war is bad for business. Period. Both sides are being impacted. For one, the u. S. Could be impacted. A real impact from these retaliatory tariffs from china because theyre on these high value american exports. If demand drops, that means thats going to affect the American Company thats here in the u. S. For china tariffs placed on their goods, theyre on these Hightech Industries that china is trying to excel in, likes err aerospace, robotics, manufacturing, and cars. Each side is getting dinged in this trade war. If you look at whats happening here on wall street, investors are really just shrugging it off because they saw this coming. Its a feeling of who is going to blink first. Allison, thank you. Meantime, President Trump spends the week in bedminster, new jersey, back in washington d. C. More negative headlines coming out of the protection agency. Lease go to sarah westwood, and, sarah, talk to me about this report. Its coming out of politico on this study that theyre saying the e. P. A. Buried its a cancer study. Its a study they say they have purposely blocked from the public. Tell me more. Thats right, brook. The e. P. A. May be free of its most controversial leader, but its not free from controversy today. Current and former echl p. A. Officials tell politico that the agency is suppressing a report about the dangers of inhaling formal formaldahyde vapor. Its coming at the end of the obama administration, and it links formaldahyde to illnesses like leukemia, and the Officials Say this report is being kept from the public as part of an ongoing effort to undermine the Scientific Research that the e. P. A. Performs. Now, an e. P. A. Spokesperson denied that the reports released as being delayed intentionally. Telling cnn in a statement assessments of this type are often the result of needs for particular rulemaking and undergoing extensive intraagency and interagency process. Outgoing epa head scott pruitt testified before congress all it is way back in january that this study was nearing completion, and months later lawmakers were asking the e. P. A. When they were going to get to see a copy of this key study, and obviously, brook, this is coming at a very chaotic time for the e. P. A. Already with pruetts resignation yesterday and uncertainty about his acting replacement, andrew wheeler. Brook. Flow testers are expected in london, and now the british deposit is saying that trump will largely try to avoid london altogether. The u. S. Ambassador to the u. K. Is actually saying thats not the case. Can you tell me what the plan is. There have been mass protests against trump taking place in london. President trump will visit oxfordshire, the birthplace of Winston Churchill for a black high dinner. He will visit buckinghamshire to theresa mays country estate. For the highly anticipated photo op with Queen Elizabeth ii he will be at windsor castle. Flun of those will take place in london, but they are downplaying the fact saying that President Trump is not trying to avoid confronting thats protests. Brook. Sarah westwood, thank you. President trump meantime takes a not so vailed swipe against not just one, but two republican icons slamming george h. W. Bush and senator john mccain, and in the same event praising vladimir putin. Also hear from the mother who walked out to the e. P. A. He has resigned this week. Lets get her reaction. , are you okay . Even when i was there, i never knew when my symptoms would keep us apart.

Russia attacked and is still attacking the u. S. Elections. It seized crima from ukraine using military force. Shot down a commercial airline in ukraine, killing almost 300 people. It has accused of poisoning an exspy and his daughter in the u. K. , and it supports a murderous dictator in syria. Just this week a group of republican lawmakers had a cozy meeting in moscow on americas Independence Day no less. Just as bipartisans sent in investigators who concluded that, yes, russia did indeed medal e meddle in the 2016 election. Be prepared. President putin ichb is kgb and this and that. Putin is fine. He is fine. Were all fine. With me now cnn Global Affairs analyst max boot. Max, lets take lets take his argument at face value. He wants to make inroads with russia, right . Fine. But if you are taking a page from his dealmaking mantra, toughness being one of the top rules, where is the toughness and why isnt it there . Its hard to find, brook. In fact, you know, if you look at his negotiating strategy with north korea which has been a total failure so far. He has been praising kim jong un to the skies in terms that are kplooulgs completely unbecoming for an american president , much as he is now praising putin, and we have nothing but empty promises from north korea. Were not going to get anything substantial from russia. I dont think these are negotiating strategies per se. I think this is just evidence of trumps the fact that he likes these dictators. He feels an afint for people like putin and kim jong un who are tough and strong and as he puts it. Well, on your empty promises note, i mean, going into this meeting with putin, there have to be concerns about what trump might promise putin. What do you think are the biggest talking points . What should maybe one be worried about . Well, theres a lot to be worried about given that in the runup to the summit with putin trump has been trashing our allies. Even just that the montana rally on thursday he was saying where sh mucks were paying for nato. He is launching against our trade partners, and so the question is what, if anything, is he going to give away to vladimir putin. Something he greatly add myers. My concern is in a there is talk of some kind of deal whereby the u. S. Would russia the illegal russia an exation of crima, and in return putin made some kind of promises about how they will back off the Israeli Border in syria with promise that is i think are very unlikely to be kept. Military exercises. Joint military exercises, and so you dont really know what trump is going to come out with after having a private audience with putin. Right. If one will ever know, right, if its just the two of them. Attacking john mccain and bush 41. In case people missed it, roll it. Even though we got a little surprise vote that evening, you all remember that evening. Somebody came in with a thumbs down after campaigning for years that he was going to repeal and replace. Thousand points of light. I never quite got that one. What the hell is that . Has anyone ever figured that one out . It was put out by a republican, wasnt it . Bush 41 nearly 30 years ago. We can find mean and reward by serving higher purpose than ours. A shining purpose. The illumination of 1,000 points of light. So, max, the president is attacking not only two american icons, but two republican icons. This is disgusting, brook, and not just two republican icons, but two american war heroes, both of whom are in very poor health at the moment. This is just a sign of how deplorable donald trump truly is. The fact that he spent this rally praising vicious dictators like putin and his negotiations with kim jong un, mocking Elizabeth Warren in racist terms, mocking maxine waters, i would say, in racist terms, attacking the free press, attacking his own justice department, attacking these american war heroes. The only thing thats more disgusting in all of this is the fact that all these people in the audience were applauding and the fact that 90 of they were laughing. They thought it was a hoot. They thought it was wonderful. The fact that 90 of republicans approved of this presidency, of this kind of behavior, thats why im not a republican anymore after a lifetime in the gop. I just i cant take it. Its to me its just rep rehencible. Weve got you today. You, max boot, pronounce that you are leaving the Republican Party. You are rooting for democrats to take over. Explain more of that to me. Well, the point that i made in the article is that donald trump is not a conservative president. He is a White Nationalist president , and he has transformed the Republican Party into his image. I mean, he is somebody who refers to latino immigrants as animals who are breeding and infesting. He says that african countries are he praises White Supremacists as being very fine people. This is not the Republican Party i joined in the 1980s under ronald reagan. It stands for everything that i find terrible and deplorable, and so i cant support that party, and, therefore, i cant support republicans who back donald trump as almost all of them do, and thats why im rooting for a Democratic Victory in november. Wow. You know, i was talking about your article yesterday. I had two republicans on, two antitrump republicans on who talked about how emotional you know, ones Political Party is. Its emotional, its permanent for them. Of course. They couldnt quite go as far as you did as saying, all right, im rooting for the democrats as a lifelong republican. Im curious to you, how many of your fellow conservatives have agreed with you, and how many have said that you are nuts . Its a pretty clear equation. Either you are voting for democrats or you are de facto supporting donald trump. That is the choice in november. You cannot tell me that there are republicans who will hold donald trump to account because we have seen in the last year and a half that that is just not the case. That republicans are too scared of him or too supportive of him. In any case, they are not going to act as a check and balance on drt donald trump, which is what this country desperately needs, and thats why, you know, you dont have to agree with democrats on every position they take. I certainly dont. I think its imperative for the health of our democracy that the Opposition Party take control of congress to act as a check on Donald Trumps attempts to undermine our democracy and divide our country. Still tolk, days before his resignation, a mother confronted and then e. Approximate a. Chief scott pruett demanded he quit his job, and now he has done that.
