official not confirming, not denying, but clearly putting the administration's point of view out there on this. and i'll just read it to you. referring to undocumented immigrants, it says they not only violate our borders, break the law over and over again by skipping their court hearings and absconding from federal proceedings, they launch phony asylum claims only to be no shows at court, ordered to be removed absentia. these judicial removal orders were secured at great time of expense it goes on, and the final graph enforcing these final judicial orders is a top priority for i.c.e., the immigration and customs enforcement and says willful defiance of the laws will not be tolerated. so essentially what we're getting is very tough talk from the administration this morning as a follow onto the president's tweet last night indicating that something is afoot, apparently next week according to the president. there have been previous reports, very important to say that the administration has been pushing for a while, the idea of big, flashy round-up, if you will of undocumented immigrants in the united states in order to try to send a message to those who might be considering to come across the border. so this also comes it's very important to on the same day as the president begins his re-election drive in earnest with a speech scheduled for orlando tonight. and as you know immigration has been a very important issue, perhaps the president's signature issue ever since he got into the campaign for president the first time around. >> just to be clear, did the administration officials tell you, yes, this is starting next week? >> no, i was not told this was starting next week. i was told we're going to talk some more about it later. what we have here, essentially, is the administration putting some very tough words out there on paper backing up essentially what the president said in his tweet without giving any confirmation of where, when or why or what might be happening in the united states. initially the reports that we heard and i have to source that to "the washington post" in may were that the administration were seeking to round up several thousand undocumented immigrants around the country. i did ask the white house whether the president's tweet had to do with that. and so far no specific response from that. >> so a little bit of back fill in terms of the context broadly speaking in terms what the president was talking about. joe johns with breaking news at the white house, thank you so much. let us know what else you hear as this develops. joining us now, a cnn military and diplomatic analyst, and cnn contributor. david gregory, the president made this announcement on twitter of what would be a huge operation to round up as he put it, millions of undocumented immigrants. now the context of people who have been issued final deportation issues by a federal judge is still more an a million. it's just unclear where the resources, the money would come from this. >> this morning you have to look at it at least at first blush as more of the president's bluster, threats and attempts from the administration we've seen before, and the president may be going out on a limb here on the days he's going to reannounce relection on how tough he's going to be to send a message after threatening tariffs from central mexico after not doing enough on the border. and you see as we try to piece this together as joe has done it, white house aides are scrambling to keep up with the president on twitter. this is an old story, unfortunately, with this white house. the reality here is still something far from clear. how you would do it, how you would house folks you round up at central large way, put them in any kind of system. as phil mudd last hour, care for them in federal attention, and no real policy in an attempt to look as tough as possible. >> i think the problem is as he launches his re-election campaign the truth is president trump has not only not solved the problem of illegal immigration, the numbers have spiked on his watch, and we've had a couple of democratic lawmakers on the past weeks who said it's actually his rhetoric. they lay the blame for the spike in these numbers at his feet. the logic they use is that the coyotes like advertising on his harsh rhetoric and they say he's going to close the border, this is your last chance, come now. they think he's made it worse what he's trying to use as a deterrent. here's another attempt rather than trying to address the root cause. >> and some democrats think that's a strategy to make things worse as we get closer towards the 2020 election. this is just atictic we see from the president and trump administration reacting as fast as possible. as you mentioned as soon as he issues these threats things tend to get worse because people in these countries desperate for better lives, for safety say now's our last chance, let's get to the united states before the border is closed off. what is the reaction going to be for mexico which is still in that grace period now after that tariff scare where they said let's try this out, let's issue our troops and see if we can prevent more of migrants from coming into our country. what does mexico know about this? it just causes more chaos where if the president were serious about it he could approach the democrats and actually put pressure on the democrats about some sort of comprehensive reform, immigration reform. he's not including the democrats, he's not even including other republicans. >> admiral kirby, before i get your take on iran i always wants to tap into your years of experience inside the pentagon and state department. how hard is it what normally would be a secret operation launched in a week when someone comes forward and leaks it in the president's case or announces it a week beforehand and you have to back fill? >> very difficult. it's going to make all the issues they've been talking about in terms of implementation, all that gets ten times harder when information like this leaks to the public before you can actually execute it. because now you're tipping off everybody who knows the authorities are coming after them. you're advancing knowledge to mexico and other countries about what we're planning to do. it makes interagency communication ten times harder. >> the united states is sending 10,000 troops to the region on top of troops that have already sent on the way here. what is the goal? iran has already suggested they'll ramp up their production of enriched uranium. i'm not sure how this conflict gets resolved. >> i'm not sure president trump understands how this conflict gets resolved, john. from a tactical military perspective this 1,000 troops makes sense to me. it's missile defense, recognizance aircraft. they're trying to keep an eye on iran and also deter iran who has not been deterred. it's a strategy. the president talks about getting iran back to the negotiating table and striking a deal on nukes. pompeo and bolten talk about regime change. it's clear this administration is not on the same page with respect to the policy to the degree there's any policy at all. and iran is driving a truck right through those differences trying to split our european allies off from us and convince the kweuropeans to stay in the deal and stay with them and not bow to trump on the sanctions. >> is this unintended consequences president trump wanted to get out of the iran deal, and now because these new sanctions are imposed on iran, iran can't export their fuel and uranium and now they have this excess and here we are. >> well, i think there's a couple of points to make. one is as john suggests, this is an appropriate military step because iran is a bad actor and attacking international shipways and vessels is something that does require response. it's a pretty measured response aside from the united states that we are going to watch this carefully and not treat this is as a hot act of war that's somehow going to tip opconfligeration, but there is a ratcheting up of that pressure. this isn't with our european allies that's unsettling because it's very much like the prelude to the iraq war with united states and european allies and not seeing eye to eye at that point. and we saw where that split led. so there's a lot of work here to be done, but i think the real point is there's not one voice coming outlet of the administration. i think it's the president's own transparency he would like to sit and negotiate, again, perhaps redo a deal that's tougher in his mind. there's been a lot of talk in the past 20 years of keeping iran from becoming a nuclear power, not a lot of good military options. >> the president is going to announce his re-election bid tonight. we had a mark water campaign spokesman on last hour, and you are starting to see wall street analysts and economic analysts say a recession is coming. >> well, they're focused on uncertainty right now, not knowing what's going to happen. with oil prices, what's going to happen in the middle east, with tariffs, china, with mexico. you already see and the president was tweeting about it that a in europe they're going to be lowering interest rates because they're trying to stave off recession. we're not at that place right now but there's uncertainty and other strategists would tell this president look at the gem of economy you have right now. focus more on that. focus more on telling business leaders you will be working more to improve the economy in their fav favor, given the gdp growth. the fact the president is not focusing on the economy and tweeting about various things on a daily basis is mind-boggling. >> friends, thank you all very much for all of the insight and analysis at this hour. so is there a plan in place to deport illegal immigrants or is it just campaign bluster? we're going to ask a republican congressman mike turner. he's with us next. d technology that have made the rx the leading luxury suv of all time. lease the 2019 rx 350 for $399/month for 36 months. experience amazing at your lexus dealer. it's a revolution in sleep. the sleep number 360 smart bed now from $899... senses your movement and automatically adjusts on each side to keep you both comfortable. and snoring?

sure. sometimes i wish i had legs like you. yeah, like a regular person. no. still half bike/half man, just the opposite. oh, so the legs on the bottom and motorcycle on the top? yeah. yeah, i could see that. for those who were born to ride, there's progressive. yeah, i could see that. change has many faces. names you'll never know. the bright-eyed, the brave, the visionaries. where challenges exist, you'll find them. at citi, we empower people who are out to change the world. because tomorrow belongs to those who welcome it with open arms. citi. welcome what's next yesss, i'm doing it all. the water. the exercise. the fiber. month after month, and i still have belly pain and recurring constipation. so i asked my doctor what else i could do, and i said yesss to linzess. linzess treats adults with ibs with constipation or chronic constipation. linzess is not a laxative, it works differently. it helps relieve belly pain and lets you have more frequent and complete bowel movements. do not give linzess to children less than 6, and it should not be given to children 6 to less than 18, it may harm them. do not take linzess if you have a bowel blockage. get immediate help if you develop unusual or severe stomach pain, especially with bloody or black stools. the most common side effect is diarrhea, sometimes severe. if it's severe, stop taking linzess and call your doctor right away. other side effects include gas, stomach area pain, and swelling. i'm still doing it all. the water. the exercise. the fiber. and i said yesss to linzess for help with belly pain and recurring constipation. ask your doctor. welcome to fowler, indiana. one of the windiest places in america. and home to three bp wind farms. in the off-chance the wind ever stops blowing here... the lights can keep on shining. thanks to our natural gas. a smart partner to renewable energy. it's always ready when needed. or... not. at bp, we see possibilities everywhere. to help the world keep advancing. on the eve of his re-election kick off president trump is tweeting about wanting to deport millions of undocumented immigrants, this as tensions with iran continue to escalate with the president ordering on additional 1,000 troops in the middle east. joining us now to talk about all this we have republican congressman mike turner who serves on both the armed services and intelligence committees. okay, last night the president announced this round up of undocumented imgrpts, more than a million. he said millions. he said it will start next week. do you think that is the solution for how to solve this fight of people who are presenting themselves at the southern border? >> you correctly in this broadcast earlier said there's been an increase and surge and certainly a crisis at the border. i don't believe we should conduct any policy by tweets, so it's really hard to take tweets themselves and do any analysis of them. but one thing we know the president of the united states has to enforce the law and operate within the law. obviously as we all look to what indicates is going to be the president's direction we have to look at what laws will be executed and how they'll be executed. >> you are not a fan of the family separation policy. >> not when it was happening with the obama administration, with the court -- >> there were people in the administration who believed that would be a deterrent. >> no one separated children at the border. what we need to do though is make sure people are zurjed from coming to border with their children. this is great risk placing their children at risk and sometimes children of others when they show up at the border it's certainly a crisis -- >> i guess my point is on this topic if you deport millions of parents but perhaps some of those kids that already have been born here, then they would be left parentless here in this country. >> of course again we don't have any of the details because you can't from a tweet ascertain what any of the details would be. i think in congress there's been broad support of addressing the issue as those known as dreamers who have come to the united states as children. but this is going to take bipartisan work and we haven't seen that with nancy pelosi's unwillingness. you can't have an open border and have immigration reform. >> agreed. just final question, do you think this will help? do you think what the president announced last night, that will help the situation? >> we don't have the details. we don't know what it is. we certainly know individuals coming here illegally needs to be addressed and we need to control our border as you just said on your broadcast. it certainly bears bipartisan response. >> let's move onto iran. the defense department announced yesterday they'd be sending 1,000 extra troops. do you agree with senator tom cotton with what we've seen already in terms of their aggressive actions calls for retaliatory military strike from the u.s.? >> no, i think that's incredibly premature. i think what we definitely see is an increase of hostile actions by iran, and we already know in the area iran has been very active through proxies and through, you know, destabilizing actions both through hesbolla and syria and iraq. there's been an ongoing tensi s tensions, and ongoing tensions that need to be addressed. i think if you look at the escalation of hostilities from iran, then we need to have a measured response, but iran needs to know we will protect our allies. this is going to be a heated debate in congress. just last week a motion was brought to prohebt from taking military action with iran. it didn't address the issue we have to protect our allies. israel we have to protect our allies, nato, and so we need to understand ways in which we can support our allies and also deter iran from future obstacle monopoli . >> all the way back from the obalka administration congress has not i think recognized our role in military actions and response, and i absolutely believe that -- >> what will you do to make president trump consider congress as part of the equation? >> i think congress is already doing that. we've just had recently a classified briefing where secretary pompeo, secretary shanahan came before us and received those challenges and questions from congress. but the actions of iran need to be deterred, and they need to be deterred of course short of military action, and that's certainly what we're seeing from the administration. >> how? >> we're seeing increased troops in the area and our allies are incredibly important because they're threatened by iran and their actions. >> nancy pelosi said this dep lee concerning decision may escalate the decision with iran and risk serious miscalculations on either side. >> on iran and on the increased hostilities from iran including the intense pressure that is being placed on iran in the area. >> i just want to determine the troop movement that you have not been briefed on that. >> it needs to happen. we get briefings on the intelligence committee, observance committee many of which are classified, fought public and are important for us to understand what direction the administration is taking but also how we can support the actions for the united states interest. >> in terms of the evidence you've seen in the briefings regarding iran's sakzs towards the oil tankers do you have any doubt in your mind it is iran? have you seen definitive proof? >> those are two different questions. do i have doubt, no. have i seen definitive proof, no. if you look at inherent aspects of these attacks it cleary is a state actor doing so. iran is certainly the lead hostile actor in the area. they typically act through proxies, but in this they're being a little sloppy. they're being a little more clear to their direct connection what's occurring. i think just as they're trying to send a signal they're increasing the danger in the area and their hostilities. >> great to have you with us here in studio. overnight, something we've not seen very much in the impeachment debate, a prominent house democrat from the swing district has joined the movement to start the impeachment inquiry against the president. so what will that change?

house democrat katie porter joins the growing calls to begin impeachment inquiry into president trump despite speaker pelosi's resistance. but she's one of these freshman members of congress on the democratic side in one of these swing stric swing districts and everyone is watching. chair of the house intelligence committee adam schiff, mr. chairman thank you so much for being with us. katie porter just a few miles down the road from you, her home district, and people have been watching how these house freshman particularly from the swing districts would go now that she's moved and others getting a little bit shakily as well. do you see momentum growing for impeachment? >> you know, there's certainly a growing number of house democrats that are coming out ipfavin favor of impeachment. it's been a slow increase but nevertheless an increase. every member has to make an individual determination what's best for the country. they are at this point divided on the question. i do think, though, regardless of how people come out in terms of whether this is the right thing at the right time, people do need to be aware that there's a perception that if we announce an impeachment inquiry tomorrow that things change dramatically suddenly witnesses like don mcgahn who are resisting coming in are going to show up and say, okay, where do i testify? the justice department is going to open its -- none of that is going to happen. we're still going to go to court. and if anything the administration is going to dig in deeper because we've gone into sort of deaf con 5. nuns i think there are a number of members on a daily basis look at the president's actions and say, okay, that's it for me. whether we're going to get to critical mass or not, i don't know. it may depend on how the investigation proceeds. >> what about the case of cory lewandowski. there's a movement to put people like him before congress as soon as possible because cory lewandowski has got no claim of privilege. hae he's a political hack. and i don't say that disparagingly but that's what he does. why not sit him down tomorrow? >> we are trying to bring in witnesses like this that have no claim or privilege, but we brought him into the house intel committee and he refused to answer questions, important questions. at that time republicans were running the committee and they were all too fine with him saying i'm not going to answer that. >> well, it's different this time. >> it's different now and we can insist on answers but he can still make the same salacious claims of privilege. we will have to go to court and enforce answers. a number of witnesses didn't even claim privilege and just said we don't want to answer those questions. yes, it'll be quicker to get answers from third parties not connected with the administration. that's why we're going to places like deutsche bank for records. places like the major accounting firm for records and information. why we're going to whistle blowers because we can get more speedy access to them. >> how long are you willing to wait for robert mueller to testify in public before the house? >> look, i think time is running out. the best way to get a witness to testify is if you can get them to testify voluntarily, and particularly i think with someone like bob mueller making an appeal to his patriotism, a sense of duty is the right way to go. but at the end of the day he needs to come testify. >> is august too late? >> yes, i think it is. i think we're reaching a point where if we can't reach an agreement and i hope we will, then we'll have to use a subpoena. >> "the new york times" had a report out over the weekend about cyber warfare, basically, the united states intelligence services are now conducting against russia perhaps using malware to get inside some of their domestic systems. but the really interesting part about the story is that intelligence officials didn't tell the president about it according to "the new york times," why? because they were concerned either he would countermand the orders or he might leak them. >> yes. >> what does that tell you? >> first, i can't first of all whether the underlying issue is accurate or not. whether there is that kind of cyber effort going on. but if it's true that the intelligence agencies or the cabinet members are keeping things from the president because they can't rely on him to keep his mouth shut when it comes to discussing that with the russians or with others, it's a real problem because we have a president who's not well-informed. it's a problem because it means our allies are unwilling to share certain information with us because they're afraid it it gets to the president that he will betray the sources and methods. so obviously it is deeply worrying from a national security point of view, but at the same time it's not that surprising that people would feel that way. there is little trust, i think, in the discretion or patriotism when it comes down to it about the president and russia. >> 1,000 troops headed to the middle east, this has to do with iran. you've seen the intelligence i presume at this point. do you believe iran was behind the attack on the tankers and do you support the move to move 1,000 troops? >> i don't think there's any question iran was behind the attack on the tankers. there aren't many good candidates and the intelligence is pretty clear. the bigger point is the administration has been going to alone escalating pressure on iran a iran and now when you be iran engaged in these provocative and belligerent acts we can't find our allies anywhere. they're worried about this administration rushing to war. they don't have trust in the administration. the administration has ignored their warnings. here you have dangerous and bad action by iran which is uniquely malevolent actor. we ought to be working in concert with our allies and yet secretary maucpompeo is still struggling to even persuade them about iran actions. this is your problem when you attack your allies, criticize them, don't even consult with them on important actions. and so my predominant risk right now is we not take actions that lead us into war. >> you of course are a very senior democrat now. joe biden is running for president, and he is talking about working with republicans. i just want to play a little bit of the sound here. >> folk, look if you start off with a notion there's nothing you can do, let's all go home or start a real revolution if you're talking about it. because we have to be able to change what we're doing within our system. >> do you want the next president to work with republican snz do you think they are trustworthy partners? >> i absolutely want the president to work across party lines and get things done. there are any number of challenges our country faces given our system of government we're not going to be able to solve as one party. we should make an effort to work with the other side. if you look at the issues of infrastructure right now, prescription drug prices, look at ways we can improve the operation of the affordable care act. there are any number of ways we should work together addressing the challenges to jobs in the economy, globalization and automation. this ought to be bipartisan initiatives and there's certainly room for bipartisan work. but, again, there has to be a willing party on the other side. there isn't a willing party right now. there's the president and this cultive personality around him, and they care only about building a wall, and that puts real limits on what we can do. >> thank you for being with us. come back any time. now to this story, nearly 60,000 people in los angeles are living on the streets. this is city known for its wealth, so why are so many people homeless?

>> maybe at one point he was. he had been married to -- who was quite a well-known actres and she died under mysterious circumstances and there were sort of rumors around he had killed her, you know? >> wait a minute, so you got married to a guy who there were rumors he killed his former wife? >> yes, yes. >> did that not seem to give you -- >> well, i thought all he needs is me. sweetheart, i was only 17. >> at 21 she married again and had two sons with the legendary conductor leonold. >> well, it's a terrible photograph of him but he was 63 when i first met him and married him. >> and was it somebody like as soon as you saw him you thought -- >> instant. >> really? >> i knew him for a week and married three weeks later. >> really? i didn't know that. >> yeah. >> he was 63? >> yeah. >> wow. did any of your friends think it was weird? >> i don't know. i mean -- >> they didn't say anything? >> didn't matter to me. >> the marriage lasted more than a decade, then she met and married director sydney lumet and then my father, writer waite cooper. she worked as a painter, a writer, an actress and designer. in the 1980s it was pretty hard to miss the gene she helped create, but that was her public face, the one she learned to hide behind as a child. her private self, her real self was more fascinating and lovely than anything she showed the public. i always thought of her as a visitor from another world, a traveller who traveled from a distant star who burned out long ago. i always thought it was my job to try to protect her. she was the strongest person i'd ever met but she wasn't tough. she never developed a thick skin to protect herself from hurt. she wanted to feel it all. she wanted to feel life's pleasures, its pains as well. she trusted too freely, too completely and suffered tremendous losses, but she always pressed on, always worked hard, always believed the best was yet to come. >> do you think the next great write is right around the corner? >> absolutely. >> is there anyone i should know about right now? >> no. >> i think brantley said he's never met anyone over the age of 16 who's ever loved being in love as much as you. >> that's true. >> and she was always in love, in love with men or friends or books or art, in love with her children and her grandchildren and then her great grandchildren. love is what she believed in more than anything. earlier this month we had to take her to the hospital, and that's where she learned she had very advanced cancer in her stomach and that it had spread. when the doctor told her she had cancer she was silent for a while, and then she said, well, it's like that old song, show me the way to get out of this world because that's where everything is. later she joked and we started giggling. i never knew that we had the exact same giggle. i recorded it, and it makes me giggle every time i watch it. gloria vanderbilt died as she lived, on her own terms. i know she hoped for a little more time. there were paintings she wanted to make, more books she wanted to read, more dreams to dream. but she was ready. she was ready to go. >> once upon a time. >> she spent a lot of time alone in her head during her life, but when the end came she was not alone. she was surrounded by beauty and by family and by friends. the last few weeks, i kissed her good-bye and i'd say i love you mom. she would look at me and say i love you, too, you know that. and she was right. i did know that. i knew it from the moment i was born, and i'll know it for the rest of my life. and in the end what greater gift can a mother give to her son? she was 95 years old when she died. what an extraordinary life. what an extraordinary mom, and what an incredible woman. >> it's really beautiful. it's really beautiful. anderson did such a wonderful job. obviously it's not easy to eulogize your parent, but i didn't know that about her life. i didn't about all those loves and narratives and she didn't know about her vast wealth until she was 21. that's remarkable. >> when anderson's book came out a couple years ago there was a book party and they were there together. and watching the two of them together was one of the most amazing things i've ever seen. the joy that they took in each other was just overwhelming, overwhelming. and you can see it as anderson talked about his mother there. you could see it with gloria vanderbilt with all those clips she's talking to anderson, answering his questions but really just saying with her eyes, i love you you crazy little boy. to me, that was the message that i got. >> i'm just happy to have finally an explanation for where anderson got his giggle. hasn't that been an a national question for so many of us? and that, what a beautiful clip at the end of her life of them sharing that. >> we are thinking about anderson and his family. all right, there's other news to report. the white house facing questions about president trump's threat to deport millions of undocumented immigrants. cnn's newsroom picks up after this break. but first a preview of our new cnn film apollo 11 that airsandy night 9:00 p.m. eastern. every feeling... ...a product of mastery. lease the 2019 es 350 for $379/month for 36 months. experience amazing at your lexus dealer. the good news?
