>> today for, the. first time ever a former white house official will head to prison for contempt of congress conviction, the huge impact this could have going forward. >> donald trump openly questions loyalty of american jews, echoes of an anti-semitic trope that goes back generations. >> the royal mystery continues pushing the royal rumors and too old overdrive with reported sighting of the princess of wales. i'm kate bolduan, my john berman and sara sidner. this is cnn news central >> we are standing by for historic moment tuned for the first time ever, a former white house official will go to prison for contempt of congress. when former trump white house adviser peter navarro arrives to prison in miami me this morning. it will be a spectacle that carries the weight of not only the precedent it sets, but also the
4:02 am
legal and political stakes of donald trump's current white house run. that now 74 year-old is going behind bars for refusing to turn over documents or testify before january 6. investigators navarro, back then, defied a subpoena, were told now he is nervous. cnn's kaitlan polantz leads us off with the story caitlin, give us some sense of how this will go down today as navarro checks in to prison for the very first time. >> well, sarah, >> he hoped for reprieve from the supreme court. it did not come. they refused to put this on hold and this is what happens when you are convicted of a crime, you get a date from the bureau of prisons to report if it is a non-violent crime like this, which is contempt of congress, that's what navarro was convicted of a jury four, he >> has to report to prison today. and so we do expect him to go to the prison that he is going to be designated to be in for the next four months or
4:03 am
just about there. that is a satellite camp in the federal correctional facility in miami. he does have a residence in the state of florida, so that's why he's going to be in miami. >> i spoke >> to a prison consultant who is working with peter navarro yesterday. this is somebody that he would hire to help him prepare and game the system if he can in some way, that consultant is advising him to try and get a job inside the air conditioning in my me. he is going to have to get a job when he's in prison. it is next to the zoo. so he is going to be able to hear the lions. i am told that is something you can hear inside that prison. he has access to emails. he is able to watch t.v. there are tvs inside the prison, so he would be able to watch news if that happens, a reminder, peter navarro r0 was not just someone working in the trump white house at the end of the presidency on covid, response and other things, economic issues. he also was subpoenaed by congress in their january 6
4:04 am
probe to turn over documents and testimony stuff he was talking about in a book. he had even and he refused to show up to congress to give them anything. he didn't have any evidence. he could present either of any executive privilege claim where trump had tried to shield him. and so now that conviction has come through, his sentence was given a four months and he's reporting to prison today. >> i mean, besides the fact that this is a real warning to others, when congress calls you to testify what's the big picture here? why does this matter so much sarah? >> no one has gone to prison. who is a former white house official in recent memory, if at all, this is something that congress has not been a able to successfully do to enforce their subpoena. they didn't actually get the documents. they didn't get the testimony from navarro, but they have not been able to find a way to have consequence if someone towards a subpoena. and so today, what you're seeing is the end of the road where they were able
4:05 am
to achieve that by having being a criminal referral on congress that the house voted on sent it over to the justice department and the justice department took this through the court system and successfully prosecuted peter navarro. and then the supreme court signed off on him going to prison. so it's quite a significant moment for congress in their investigations. and what could happen if you violate what they want under a subpoena. it's also significant in that he is a former trump white house official, just on its face caitlin poland's thank you so much for the reporting. a historic first, john, you look and it's always significant when a 74 year-old man goes behind bars, cnn legal analyst, and former federal prosecutor, jennifer rodgers, is with us now. peter navarro is going to prison in a manner of speaking for donald trump today. >> in this was so avoidable, i was sure all he had to do is show up and take the fifth. that's all he had to do instead of just completely blowing it off. you don't
4:06 am
almost felt performative the way that he and some others, steve mann and included just absolutely refused to even think about cooperating. and that's what's landed him here today. >> and he claimed in executive privilege, which was never actually asserted, or he couldn't prove that it was asserted by donald trump >> yeah. yeah. i mean, he did he did absolutely everything wrong here. i mean, the only thing that he's done that's i guess right, is tried everything he possibly can to keep himself out of prison. but those things have run out and the timing is bad for him too, because of course, other people who would have gone to prison for donald trump like steve bannon, managed to get pardons because trump was still in office. >> trump is not an office. there was no way to get a pardon, at least not now, we can retroactively, but he will have already served his time at that point. the subject of consequences gen. today we are learning that donald trump says he cannot post or fined anyone to post a bond for him in the new york civil fraud trial of more than 450 million. he's got just days to come up with this
4:07 am
money. what happens if he doesn't? >> well, he has appealed to the intermediate appellate court in new york to say, listen, i can't post it. you have to help me out. you have to reduce the amount of the bond or wave it all together. so we'll see what the court does. i do think that they want to protect a defendant's right to appeal here without paying the judgment in advance. so i suspect if he actually can prove that there's no way he can get this bond that they may make some compromise if they didn't, would the state have the ability to seize assets of his that's right. >> the state can start to go after assets. now, remember that process takes time to, so while the appeal is playing out, letitia james and her team could certainly go in and start those processes he's put that involves court court processes and litigation and stuff in and of itself. >> and he posted on social media talking about the fact that he couldn't come up with this money, which is ripe for a guy who says he is a multibillionaire, could elon musk step in, could a rich person step in and say, here, here's the money? >> sure, absolutely. i mean, the interest here in the court system is having that money
4:08 am
available so that the plaintiff in this case, letitia james, is office. the state of new york can have the money. they have to post it, right? so it would be a matter ultimately of record who did it? that's of interest politically for someone who wants to be president and so on. but legally speaking, someone just needs to post that, won't necessarily be anyone in america who had half 1 billion. god bless them, could show up with that money if they wanted to write. now >> absolutely >> another important de, of rulings yesterday in the new york criminal case against donald trump, where this judge did say that evidenced that donald trump does not want emitted will be allowed to be admitted. and by that, i mean, evidence of the access hollywood tape. why does that matter? >> well, the access hollywood tape, it's just a blockbuster tape, but interestingly, in this case, george marsh on actually kind of split the baby a little bit. he said that evidence of the tape and what's on it can be testified about. but the tape itself won't come in and that's according to donald trump, i think because that tape, when you watch it, there's just such a visual reaction to it, but it's relevant because it shows
4:09 am
their attitude at the time his motivation for wanting to hush up stormy daniels is because the access hollywood tape had just come out. they were very concerned about the impact of that on voters. >> judge did say, again, this is the hush money trial involving the payments to stormy daniels she can testify. the judge said, now, it's not clear that she will necessarily she wasn't before the grand jury, but she is on the prosecution's witness list here why could she be a damaging witness? >> well, she's the one who really sets this whole thing up. it's not so much about the salacious details of what happened between them, but she says, listen, i was about to come out with this. they were going to pay me. i was going to tell my story right before the election. and then this deal happen with my lawyer and so on. so it really demonstrates why he was moving this money around, paying her you're on the sly to try to impact it's not about the salacious details, but very quickly could the salacious details be part of the testimony >> i think this judge will limit that. i mean, certainly the fact of their romantic entanglements, if you will. but i don't think they're going to get into some of the stuff that she has said publicly about the
4:10 am
details romantic used, euphemistically in this case, jennifer rodgers, thank you very much for being here really appreciate it. thanks >> so victims of the so-called goon squad say the de of justice has come, six former officers are about to learn their sentences after pleading guilty to torturing two black men in mississippi >> and lawmakers find themselves in a >> familiar position right now, sprinting to finalize a deal before another shut shutdown deadline hits >> and the emotional >> reunion as the most famous set of ruby slippers and all of hollywood history, returned to their own and think >> if no >> no no to beer headliner. las vegas. >> that's what i want to do. >> vegas. the story of sin city sunday here, ten on cnn

4:16 am
president's agenda, but it also touch on the broader defining themes of his campaigns. so first, he's going to talk about improving housing costs as well as creating clean energy and manufacturing jobs, all of which are important to latino voters. >> but then also touching on reproductive rights and democracy, abortion in particular could be on the ballot in nevada, and arizona. so this is expected to be front of mind for voters. so today, he's going to head out and he's going to go to reno las vegas, and phoenix where he's going to launch an initiative to reach more latinos. because clearly the campaign sees that as the challenge moving forward, it is mobilizing and galvanizing voters on the ground level, meeting them where they are in the president going to be meeting with community leaders as well as something along the way. and again, this is, these are two states that the president, 1.20, 20, but they're going to be tight this time around. in fact, something in polls show former president donald trump ahead. so the campaign is keenly aware of that and trying
4:17 am
to get the president out there as well as the vice president who was just there not long ago to mobilize these voters and make sure that they understand what the administration has done with the agenda is and how that is affecting them in their home states >> also wanted to ask you, the president spoke on the phone yesterday with the israeli prime minister first time in an about a month and according to the readout president biden explained in laid out why he is so concerned about gaza specifically, any operation into rafah. what more are you learning about the call? >> going into the call, those were two issues that were top of mind for the president and the israeli prime minister. the situation in rafah where more than 1 million displaced palestinians have a mass and also getting humanitarian aid into the region. now, white house official said that the president affirmed his support for israel and is called, but he also made quite clear that any type above ground operation in rafah would be catastrophic for palestinians, national security advisor jake sullivan, calling it a big mistake and to
4:18 am
show you just how concerned they are about this, the president asked the prime minister to send a delegation of military leaders to washington in the coming days to meet and talk about the strategic plan to go after hamas. so clearly, the president concerned about this and what it would mean, especially for the, the humanitarian crisis in rafah priscilla. thank you so much. it's great to see you sir. >> all right. as conspiracy theory swirl around the health status of the princess of wales, a new video has surfaced, isn't enough to stop all of these wild rumors. also string i did in haiti, a retired marine. finally manages to flee as gang violence overtakes the country, i'll speak with his daughter about his dangerous escape seven astronauts setting off on a scientific mission, columbia, houston check. >> i didn't know anything concerning it happened. there were people that didn't the

4:24 am
reality is we're working on very few facts, just the fact that kate went to the hospital for a scheduled appointment. she came out, they said we won't see her again until easter and there won't be any up dates before then. she is well, we're told so they are carrying on with their events and this is something very close to william strategy that he will not respond to the media about very personal matters. unless it becomes a huge public interests. so they feel that their house shared enough with the world to say that she's well and she's not under any particular threat so of course, a huge amount of cameras up in sheffield in northern england today, following prints, the prince of wales to cfi says anything about this huge conversation that's bubbling up around the world in max following admission that she photoshopped a picture of herself with her husband and children. were getting new information that she turns out to be a serial photo shopper of official
4:25 am
palace photos well i'm getty images have added an editor's note to one of the images that was released last year. it was actually a photo taken by kate in 2022 of the late queen and her children and grandchildren. and gettier suggesting that some manipulation it has been carried out on that photo. and there is some evidence for that. we think. but yes, this is a second photo that has emerged which appears to have manipulated, which is an issue because it was sent out as an editorial picture for use for news purposes. and if it was manipulated in a major way and it wasn't just filters and it wasn't just cropped than it's not a true representation of actually what happened in that moment. so that's an issue and it does speak to a lot of conspiracy theories saying there's a cover up here. the royal family of covering something up about kate now there was an appearance over the weekend of kate and william
4:26 am
at a farm shop in windsor. that's on the front page of the british tabloids today. and that shows kate and william looking very happy together. she's smiling, she's looking well, the palace won't speak to that in any way, but it does certainly appear to be true. british tabloids suggesting that that is what everyone's been waiting for evidence, that she is. well, but the conspiracy theory has got to such a level now, people still think it's a cover up, perhaps a body double of some kind so these are huge issues really for the palace but also to some extent, journalism as well. how far do you go beyond the facts we know about something and indulge in conspiracy theories which are based on nothing whatsoever. >> yeah. and it really gets to the >> issue is are they representatives of the state or are they more like actors or celebrities? and how does one cover them depends on which one, which side you come down on. max foster, keep us posted throughout the morning as we learn more appreciate it >> okay. >> former president trump attacking and labeling jews

4:32 am
abortions reported last year in 2020 hey, three, that is the highest rate in more than a decade. that is despite the bands we've talked so much about put in place and more than a dozen republican led states after the supreme court decision overturning roe versus wade. cnn's jacqueline howard has been looking at this report. she's joining us right now. what are you learning from the data in this report? >> we'll kate, i think the takeaway here is that these numbers tell a story we've seen this rise and abortions because there are states that still offer abortion care. and in those states, they've seen an increase in abortions. we know that 14 states so far have banned abortion, but n neighbors green states in states that still offer care, advocacy groups, clinics abortion funds have all worked to maintain and increase access. and that's what we're witnessing. so like you said, last year, in total, there were more than 1 million abortions performed here in the united states. that number represents a 10% increase from 2020 and if
4:33 am
you look only at states that still offer abortion care, there was a 25% increase in abortions. so those are the states where we're seeing this increase play out. and many of those states like illinois, new mexico, they saw the most increases. they are seeing patients that are maybe traveling to get abortion care. and that's why we're seeing this trend. we also know telemedicine, telehealth has played a role as well. so it's fascinating to see this counterbalance so to speak, in response to some of the restrictions that have come out against abortion. >> and jacqueline, we've reported on an we've talked a lot about medication, abortions mifepristone access to fights over the legal battles over myth, access to mifepristone and unmet and medicaid they should abortions, what role does medication abortions plan these numbers
4:34 am
>> yeah, medication, abortion was really the most popular form of abortion in these numbers, 63% of abortions last year in 2023 we're medication abortion, medication, abortion is when a patient is given to men medications like you mentioned, mifepristone and misoprostol to end a pregnancy. and it's the most popular type of abortion here in the united states. you can also have surgical procedures as an abortion type of abortion care, but medication is the most popular and that was also seen in these numbers. kate's jacqueline howard. thank you so much. jump. >> right. knew this morning, a former new york police department aide is suing mayor eric adams, accusing him of sexual assault. she alleges that happened in 1993 when they worked for the transit bureau. she says he demanded sexual acts in exchange for helping her get a promotion, but adams denied the accusations and says he does not know the accuser. the cdc now says family's going to a country where measles or a

problem should get babies as young as six months old vaccinated before they go. that is a few more let's ahead of when they usually recommend babies get the shot. the cdc says some of those countries include austria, the philippines, and the united kingdom >> they're in very good shape >> so it was a man named michael shaw reunited with a pair of ruby slippers from the wizard of laws that have been stolen nearly 20 years ago. the shoes are said to be worth more than $3 million they are back on their original pedestal at a museum and grand rapids. now, they do say there is no place like home. and then again, they also say, i'll get you my and your little dog to sarah. you had to >> bring in that last part. i was sticking with the emotional moment of him crying over the
4:36 am
room we slippers. there is no place like home. i'm leaving it there. john berman. >> all right. very soon lawmakers returned to capitol hill staring down a dwindling shutdown clock, if you've heard this one before, let me know. here's the deal. a huge funding plan is due friday night, which likely means right now a shutdown is inevitable. well, simply because there are not enough days to get this done, the key questions right now, how long will it last and how much damage might this to cnn's lauren fox is joining us now. lauren, you're heading to the hill soon >> what? where is the timing crunch happening here? give us some sense of how close they might be to an actual deal >> yes, sarah, i'll start with the good news. first. negotiators have come to an agreement on the dhs funding bill. this is a bill to fund the department of homeland security and it had been one of the last hang-ups as they were trying to move forward with negotiating this package of six spending bills over the weekend. the white house and
4:37 am
republicans had to scramble together a last-minute discussion to try to find a path forward that now has been found. here's the issue. they still have to write this legislation. they still have to do what is known as a readout, meaning everyone is checking for anything that's slipped in at the last minute, that all takes considerable amounts of time. and there are a couple of factors at play here. one is house republican rules require that members have 72 hours, a three-day rule is what it's known as to review legislative texts. that means if the text comes out today, the soonest that they could likely vote on this would be thursday or friday, then you're in a situation where the senate still has to pass it. and in the united states senate, any one member can slow the process is down. they can slow walk this. so it's very possible that they could fall into a shutdown into the weekend as they tried to find some path forward. it's also possible that senate throughs could agree to move this bills
4:38 am
package very swiftly. so there's still a lot that we don't know, but the good news is they do have an agreement on that very difficult dhs bill that they had been trying to negotiate over the course of the last several weeks. but whether or not they can get this done by the friday in a midnight deadline still remains to be seen. sarah, what i heard there is so you're saying there's a chance lauren fox we will check back in with you in a bit thank you. >> so president biden is headed to the battleground states of arizona and nevada today to make a play for latino voters. in part a key part of his winning 2020 coalition. >> donald trump is >> also leaning in on what was part of his 2020 strategy, which is ramping up divisive rhetoric this time, he's going after jewish americans any jewish person that votes for democrats hage, their religion, they ate everything about israel. and they should be ashamed of those sales because
4:39 am
israel will be destroyed we'll get more, we'll get to more on that in a second. speaking of what's old is new again, donald trump's campaign team is in talks to enlist his 2020 campaign staff or paul manafort now in 2024 to help with the republican convention this summer, let's talk about all of this joining us right now is timberland to former governor of minnesota? a former republican presidential candidate, teapots, good to see you. thanks for coming in. governor. >> what do you think? good morning to you. >> it's great. >> thank you so much. what do you think of the state of the race right now? how would you describe where we are? >> well, i think in short, the polls show that trump is slightly ahead in all or nearly all of the swing states which presents a real challenge for biden. i think it explains why he's out west trying to shore up his base with diverse voters leaning into the abortion issue, which he believes is an advantage for him and in swing states that appears to be in many swing state it also i think explains why donald trump is leaning into immigration and also to allow he is dealing

with inflation and crime and emphasizing those issues, trying to not only motivate his base, but it reached those persuadable are swing voters. he thinks he can get on those issues. so i think that's it at the moment. if the election were held today, trump and probably win? >> in august. >> i noted you said in an interview of a biden-trump rematch. again, this was an august which is 1 billion years ago at this point. >> but you said, i think the >> republicans unfortunately are sadly setting themselves up again for a likely defeat if they don't find somebody different than trump. and it doesn't look like they're going to do you still feel the same way >> well, i still feel the same way. they're not going to have a different candidate. but i also think my comments then we're premature. i think it looks like based on the polling i just described, trump is in the lead. the keeps that narrow lead in the swing states, he is going to win. so i think those comments will be viewed as inaccurate if trump is the victor he's the slight favorite right now. >> i'm gonna give you credit, not inaccurate. it was just an august and a lot happens in a campaign. governor trump
4:41 am
>> i'll give you that. >> let me ask you about this because i was talking i played the sound bite of donald trump there in the lead in his you can call it apocalyptic. you can call it divisive. you can call it hate-filled. the >> language he >> uses. this is not new, but we are now seeing it again. and heightened saturday, he was talking about a bloodbath coming to the country if he's not elected, the end of democratic elections, if he's not elected. and these latest remarks saying, if jews who vote for democrats hate israel, hate their religion and should be ashamed of themselves what impact do you think this has on people? what impact does it have on you hearing this >> well, first of all, and importantly, i don't think people hate their religion because they might vote for democrat or republican. so let's get that straight secondarily. i don't think whatever trump says doesn't seem to matter. we've all learned that lesson now, over years, he can say almost
4:42 am
anything and it doesn't fundamentally change his numbers of support, at least with his base of board and with some of the voters that are newly attracted to them, it's almost immune from his sort of hysterical rhetoric on all kinds of issues. this being one but lastly, i think donald trump could actually make a legitimate meritorious argument that he's the stronger candidate when it comes to foreign affairs relative to israel he has a strong record with the abraham accords, is support for israel. a number of things he did while he was president. so if he wants to present himself as the most pro-israel candidate in this race, he can credibly do that. he doesn't need to introduce sort of hyperbolic are hysterical rhetoric >> but he definitely will continue to do so. i want to ask you as a former governor of minnesota, there's another former governor of minnesota who's have just before you just even tour who is being talked about right now as a possible running mate to robert kennedy jr. and is on an independent ticket you heard that and you thought what?
4:43 am
>> well i know governor ventura, i get along with them well, we have a nice relationship outside of politics, but i'm politics. what i thought was, well, there's sort of two conspiracy theorists coming together. so in that regard, it's sort of an aligned, a ticket. if he goes that route, although i guess read more recent reporting as he is leaning towards else, i think rfk more broadly setting aside governor ventura while he is going to impact the election in terms of who drains boats from in my view, is a conspiracy theorists and is a little weird. and i don't think he's should be presently united states and i don't think whoever you elect says vp is going to really matter. >> and the interesting discussions we've been having with some smart folks has been who, if he stays in who he actually draws more from, that seems to be up to debate depending on what data you're looking at and who you're talking to right now. but governor, it's great to see you. thanks for coming in. >> thanks for having me appreciate it. >> really appreciate john temple. i do. who was once on some shortlist to be a running

4:49 am
that comes out over come that of it as being the right thing because everything needs to be done rocket everything we've done alone, they've been very hard for me hey, as you looking forward to justice in my scene as ryan young is in rankin county, mississippi. ryan, what are we expecting to see today? >> well, difficult day for apparently this family and for the people of this community. a really want to have more answers to their questions and that's particularly how many officers were involved in this total. of course, they were six who showed up to that home, but a lot of people in the community believes there are more goon squad officers still on the rankin county sheriff deputies police force. and so that is the question that a lot of people want to answer. but john, to take you through this, as you heard from michael jenkins, eddie parker, look, they've been traumatized by this entire procedure when you think about eddie parker alone, who who says he can't believe he's still alive. he's wearing a shirt with emit tills face on
4:50 am
it just constantly says that it's hard to even be in this community more because he's not sure when someone may attack him. now, the two officers who faced serious charges today, one is hunter elward he is the officer who they say took a weapon, placed the inside of the mouth of a man, and then open fire, lacerated his tongue listen to one of the mothers talk about just the pain because entire families been going through for the last year michael it is our property. that's what the deputy told me on the phone. my son shot in the mouth and he's telling me michael is their property. i want them to receive the same consideration and gave my son when they've broken it how and they taught you think? that's what i want to see in court. >> that's right. i woke the maximum sentence >> yeah. hunter elward and jeffrey middleton face their day in court today. hundred faces some 30 years, but john,
4:51 am
to show you how just diabolical this was at one point after that shot was fired, they cleaned up the crime scene they even stole the video recorder from inside the home, so there would be no video evidence they shut off their body cameras and some of the supervisors were actually there when this was going on, the goon squad had its own challenge coin that they would hand out throughout the community. so there are questions about how far this goes within the rankin county sheriff's department, the people in the community want to see the sheriff, bryan bailey step down. that has not happened. he was reelected. no one ran against them. but for the two men that you saw, who i've talked to over the last year, over and over again. they say they've been constantly traumatized by this they are also surprised that there's not more in terms of the state focusing on this area in the county because of the pain this entire community has been through. john, a lot of this will go on today in court. we should find out more about the evidence and how they unraveled this entire case. >> john, it will not end with just the sentencing. ryan young. thank you so much for
4:52 am
that. okay. >> so an attorney who tried to help overturn the 2020 election results in michigan is now under arrest in dc. stephanie lambert was taken into custody after a court hearing related to her league of internal emails that belonged to dominion voting systems. the arrest yesterday stems from her failure to appear at hearings in a separate michigan case, and that one, she's facing charges for allegedly conspired iran to seize voting voting machines after the 2020 election. you following all of this because there's a lot, let's get to cnn's marshall cohen, who is following all of it for us. marshall, what are you learning about her arrest? >> kate if you can keep >> up and follow along, you will find out that this is one of the strangest stories in a while. so stephanie lambert, as you described, she is an election denier back in 2020, she tried to overturn the results in her home state of michigan and she was actually indicted last year on state charges for trying allegedly to seize voting machines to prove
4:53 am
those voter fraud claims in her criminal case in michigan, there actually is an active warrant out for her arrest because she failed to appear at two recent hearings in michigan but she did make an appearance yesterday in a dc courtroom right here in dc for a separate defamation case. that's because she is the attorney of the former overstock ceo, patrick byrne, who is being sued by dominion voting systems four. similarly promoting false claims about the 20 hey, 20 election. it was a routine scheduled check-in status conference on that case and ms lambert, was there, but things got very interesting because she tousled with the judge and the dominion attorneys for the better part of an hour. but when the hearing ended, the judge told everyone to leave the courtroom. myself included. we all let's out and then we saw two us marshals step in and we never saw him as lambert leave that courtroom. the us marshal service later confirmed
4:54 am
that because of that active warrant in michigan, they did take her and into custody and she was taken to a dc jail it is really strange. >> talk to me about the leaked emails, the league dominion emails aspect of this >> so she was arrested because of failure to appear in her michigan criminal case, but she's also in some hot water and under scrutiny for leaking emails in this definite summation case, she's patrick burns, attorney as his attorney. she has the right to access documents that are related to the case and in this defamation suit, both sides are required to turn over documents to the other side so that they can prepare for trial. she took some of those internal dominion documents and pass them along to a a friendly, sympathetic sheriff in michigan, a man by the name of dar leaf, who himself is also a promoter of these conspiracy theories about the 2020 election. so she gave
4:55 am
them to the sheriff. he's been posting them on his social media has caused quite a stir and kate, it's just bananas to sit here in 2024 or while people are still trying to undermine the 2020 election just, just bananas. that is officially the tagline for the 2024 for sure, marginal. it's good to see you. thank you for running us through all of it, sarah. >> all right. >> haitian gangs are unleashing new attacks on upscale neighborhoods as haiti deteriorates, attempts to leave are becoming more desperate. this morning, the state department is staying in close contact with americans who are stuck in haiti. the department is not ruling out another evacuation flight yesterday, 30 americans were rescued in flown back to the united states. a florida non-profit helping with those evacuation says they have more than 100 people on their waitlist who are hoping to get out our next guest, father was one of the americans who were trapped in haiti. her dad, boys, young is finally on his way home, but not on one of
4:56 am
those evacuations flights joining me now is kim patterson? kim, thank you so much for coming on this morning. first of all, i want to check in with you to find out what you've heard from your father, how he's doing and how he was able to get out of haiti thank you good morning. >> he is doing relatively well they fortunately, we're in a relatively safe place if there is such a thing during this time they were able to get out yesterday, late afternoon after private 18 hours of just really hard times getting to a point where they could they ended up finding a boat that could take them up the coast to the border. so they got off on the haitian side so that they could get their stamp on their passport and walk through and then they add a probably about a six hour drive to get to santa domingo obviously, really
4:57 am
just getting in. so that's where he's at right now >> yeah. so he took a boat, got to spot, got out, and then went from haiti to sensitive me or to the dominican republic neighboring country can you give us some sense of what your father was doing there and what he told you that situation was like while he was there >> so again they were he was there doing some mission work. we've been going to haiti for years now and he originally went with a missionary friend of ours, taking some medical supplies and doing some smaller mission work throughout the country. and they were supposed to leave on the second. and again, fortunately for them, they were in the southern southwest coast of haiti and in a relatively safe location because it's very small community on the coast unfortunately, it put them far
4:58 am
away from what we were initially hearing they need to be in cat patient, are they need to be somewhere else to frame evacuation effort? and we were told by many of the people that we tried to contact that a water extraction was going to be his best bet and we just couldn't make that happen. and we came so close so many times and then probably two days ago, they decided that they were going to venture to a bigger city which was about six hours away. and they went by land to get there for what we thought was going to be another evacuation effort which about 12 hours later fell through so then they were in this bigger city which was as safe as they were before. and we just started thinking really hard. they started making a plan on the ground and fortunately, we're able to find some really connotations that helped them out and getting them a vote and someone to take them to the border. it was about a
4:59 am
four-and-a-half hour boat ride. my dad said in about six to eight foot wave, so it wasn't a pleasant boat ride, but they're very thankful to be out of the country we're looking at pictures from port-au-prince, haiti. we have a reporter there, david culver and crew, who had been showing us just that the horrific situation that people are living in. i know that you've been going to haiti on humanitarian trips for many years. can you give us some sense of your thoughts of what you're seeing now, what is, what people are experiencing now and what gave you the love of haiti, why you kept returning? >> i take a question. i mean, it's heartbreaking to see what's going on now. and i think one of the reasons i decided to come on and speak where we're fortunate enough that now my father is on his way home but it is a nation that we love so dearly and it's, it's hard for us to not just look at this, this country. and i think everybody
5:00 am
sees it as this nation of poverty. and yes, it is. >> but >> you got to look past that and see the people's faces and a lot of people have said to me, why do y'all go? it's on a list for the united states, don't travel and it's been that way since we've been going but thank god, there's people that will continue to go because haiti is not self-sustaining. and if it weren't for the people who just have a heart for that country and a heart for the people then they truly would be helpless. so we started going for just different mission work. like i said, in 2010 was my first trip. and i really can't explain it other than it just got it got to me go in a couple of years later just to see what had really captured so much of my attention and same thing happened to him. he fell in love with the country. so we just have a heart for just going back and doing what we can when we can kim patterson, i'm sure you were looking
