>> give you an idea of why this is happening. i'm assuming there's the issues that have going on in the middle east >> yeah, that's definitely part of i mean, part of it a seasonal right whenever winter ends, demand goes up. and so that's an issue part of it is intentional opec plus the producer lions led by saudi arabia and russia, they're holding back supply. they want to lift prices and it's working. and then you have the war factor, drone attacks on russian refineries by ukraine. that was the issue last month. and now there are all these concerns about the middle east. >> and you have to keep in >> mind, the us is producing more oil than any country ever has before. and so that is cushioning some of the blow here. but there are concerns about the middle east. and so sarah, what happens next on the oil price front is going to be big for the economy, for the market, and maybe even the election >> president searle candidates. we'll be watching that very closely. i'm sure matt egan. thank you so much another hour. i've seen a new central starts right now

>> mass weddings, >> animals going >> crazy, and the coolest classes you will ever where we are live across north america with everything you need to know about today's solar eclipse and what you will be able to see >> donald trump >> takes a stand on abortion this morning, but one that a major anti-abortion group calls a disappointment i'm kate bolduan, my john berman and sara sidner. this is cnn news central >> a celesti eventyears in the mang, most he and it wi not happen again for another 20 years. so total eclipse mania has begun in america in just over five hours. the moon will start to eat the sun as nasa scientists would say, we wink. and the

really good news right now, the chances of clear skies across the united states is much, much greater. than your chances of finding a pair of those cool glasses. if you do not have them already, roughly 32 million americans live in the path of totality. that is where nasa says the moon will appear to completely cover the sun for about 4 minutes. outside of this path, you will still see something pretty darn cool in the skies, 99% of americans will be able to view at least a partial eclipse. of course, if the weather helps you out the next time this will happen 20 years from now. so look up or look like the person who totally missed out. we begin with wrote mr. flores and karen ville, texas. rosa, you've been showing us all day all the fun things that are being sold. people are making good money off of this and it hasn't happened yet. what are you rst time and seeing crowds, e you're not only one out there we finally have some de

people thinking that there's going to be a lot of exciting energy here in carville and there's a particular business that is buzzing in town. it's called zen, an alche. and a lot peoplare gog there fothe rchande. i got to admit nt there tooor the earringsnd the sure buthere e people are also ing there for aling.nd so that they can have pre-eipse agnmes to ask about the weather, e because the's clear cloud ver here. we're in and the good thinghat we heardrom zen and alchemy is that there might be something we could experience when with the clo company. take a listen >> hopinfor good weather. so but ev iit's nothe weather. energy still the, it's still going to get dark. so and wher he at all because i potential cloud cover 's still there. were suing a feg solutely >> that maybthe prize for the day if brains, or if it stor or whater you might eclipse. absolutely othe

hopefully this stickwith us. you're o of thmost aive eclipschasers in the united for you?hat is, what iit raw the next one? ps you chasing >> well, if you've ever seen a total eclipse of the sun, you would understand because it's prablyne of the most traumatic experiences personal experiences that you can have in life 's so short in terms of the time thatt sts that you have to really soak up every second. so this particular eclipse it has more than 260econds, and thats pretty remarkable >> and paul, you've been we're showing some pictures that you provided to us. you've been to dozens of countries to to catch eclipses this time. you're on a boat in the pacific off the coast of mexico. why did you pick this location? kind of talked me through the preparation ahead of this one well, we looked at the weather data statistics for the past 20 years and it seemed that this area had a very long >> history of clear skies on

april the eighth or on the days it. so that was the main driver could we actually encounter clouds or would it be likely to be clear? sure >> how's it looking right now? whato you what has the forecast looking high cloudcurrently out the or window, and i'm sitting in my cabin looking outside, but it's looking pretty good right now. >> that's excellent. okay. joe, you're near durango, mexico. you're also taking part in a big experiment for this eclipse. what is your group hoping to capture >> well the modern eddington experiment is redoing the experiment that was done 100 years ago that confirmed more einstein's predictions of this theory if relativity, that the gravity of the sun will bend star light as it goes past and there are about two dozen of us in texas here in mexico, and el saulteaux and elsewhere and we

are hoping to blow the best measurement and out of the water and confirm the functional dependence of that the flexion. and so we're holding our breaths and we're hoping for clear skies all over and that's, that's the game we're playing >> exactly, >> hoping to top einstein. no small fee. good luck on that one. there >> talk to me to see an eclipse but i'm just like seeing any clips. what does it feel like for you? >> oh, it's a whole mix of excitement and tension that all the cameras will go off when they're going to go off and you just look up. and there's nothing you can do as that shadow approaches except gawk and hope you got your preparations done and, then then there's a hole in the sky

it looks like just as black hole surrounded by the magnificence of the corona paul did i read correctly that you met your wife on one of your trips to catch an eclipse >> yes, that is correct. and 1994, i met her at the lima, peru airport and we have been together ever since. so she's observed 45 eclipses with me up to now that's always in paul, you help coordinate trips to help others to kind of get the best views of these events. what does it like? sharing not only your personal passion, but you know, kinda what is it like sharing this with others in this way? >> well, it's really enjoyable because i represent the johnson space center astronomical society and houston. and it's a public outreach efforts. so where you don't require anyone to have a background in astronomy or having seen an eclipse priors now, so this is more of an educational one. i want to and i have 185 people

here with me on this ship. >> it's pretty exciting >> joe you and paul or both in this unique community of eclipse chasers, have you found a common thread between, between all of you and where your passion? all comes from. this >> i think we're just the clips extremist were pple cls that i can seet the ible 'm d it'alwaars inlife chalnge to figure out how to get tohem.here's one co uphere i'll be in ice, i and t'n one in africa and it's a great wato see the world and whever whever've bn for an eclipse, there have been lots of people who've been

>> okay, donald trump, as you said, he's been sidestepping this issue four months because he's been telling people both publicly and privately that he believes that the issue was a political loser display also take but for the overturning of roe versus wade. and that's exactly what he did in this video this morning. he said that he's proud that he played a part in the overturning of roe versus wade. but he also said that he's leaving this decision to the states. he believes that is up to the states to decide how they should rule. on abortion. take a listen to how he put it >> my view is now that >> we have abortion where >> everybody wanted it from a legal standpoint to stage will determine by vote or legislation or perhaps both. and whatever they decide must be the law of the land in this case the law of the state. now, it's up to the states to do the right thing. like ronald reagan, i'm strongly in favor

of exceptions for rape incest, and life of the mother. you must follow your heart of this issue, but remember, you must also win elections to restore our culture okay. and as you >> heard there, i think a key line is that he said you must also win elections. this is something that donald trump has said before both publicly and privately and really, that's what this comes down to. he recognizes that republicans are very vulnerable on this issue. and you have to win elections. and this is how you know, they think is really the politically safe route. but i have to also argue that it does open him up to more criticism from both the left and the right democrats can continue to blame him for strict abortion laws, state by state, and republicans and conservatives on the right particularly those in the anti-abortion abortion movement who have been pressuring him to come out for a specific number of weeks when abortion should be banned? i don't think they're going to be very happy

with this. and one group already is saying that they are disappointed. here's a statement from marjorie dannenfelser. she's the president of susan b. anthony pro-life america. this is what she told me this morning. she said, quote, we are deeply disappointed in president trump's position. unborn children and their mothers deserve national protections and national advocacy. the statement went on to say, saying the issue is back to the states, seeds the national debate to the democrats. and so, as you can see, one pro-life group already has pretty disappointed with this. and look, i think one thing that i've been hearing from a lot of these groups and anti-abortion allies of donald trump is that they argue that they were crucial in helping get him elected in 2016 because of this issue. and they really wanted him to go further on this. and so him leaving this up to the state's isn't necessarily a satisfying answer for them great reporting is always alina. thank you so much, sarah. >> all right. joining me now is national politics reporter and axios sophia cai. thank you so much for being here. you

listened to this. we just play the clip of what donald trump's was there anything that stood out to you other than the fact that this was a very calm and very scripted response >> yes, very, very scripted trump is also floated a couple other things previously, we had the 15 or 16 week man and he was serving people at mar-a-lago. we know that he likes the 16 banned because it was it was a whole four months. and now he's seeing in a very scripted way, very formal background that he wants to leave it up to the states. and i think it is just an answer for now, it'll be easy for him to move from this and say, oh, actually, i want an x week ban for him than for him to do the other way around? so i think we should remember that trump has been telling people different things. and this is just what he's saying for now, seven months away from the general election does it sound to you like he's trying to message the moderates on abortion at

this point in time because he himself has said this is like a no win issue. >> yeah. i mean, let's just take a step back right. a month ago, he got enough delegates to be the presumptive nominee. he spent the last month taking over the rnc. it was very chaotic. they've finally come to a point now where that is stabilized this past weekend, he had a pretty good fundraising haul. >> now, >> on monday, he finally has the brain space to now focus on putting out a couple of more concrete stances on policy issues and abortion is just one of them. of course, everyone runs the center he's putting out more moderate stanzas. and i think thank you. yes, he's signaling to suburban women something that he knows is going to be a problem for him that he can be potentially on the right side or a moderate side of this position. >> we've talked to some republican strategists who think he shouldn't have touched

the issue of abortion at all. because no matter what he says, he's going to be attached buy one side of the argument or another. a case in point where we just heard from the susan b. anthony anti-abortion group who were very unhappy. and if we could just pop that up with the announcement that he will leave abortion rights up to states and that's what he's going to stick with for now. let me ask you about that is this a situation where this could hurt him with conservatives, which most people don't think but could potentially help him with moderate voters yeah, i think conservatives, there are a lot of lawmakers who is right, who looked to trump as a north >> star and we saw this with ivf when the ruling came out trump pretty immediately said that he supports ivf and you saw a lot of members to his right? hey, like senator tuberville also kind of moderate their own position ivf and that was something that trump also addressed in the

video today, he said, republicans have to support growing families. and so he understands on these issues he sets the north star and a lot of more conservative members will follow his lead and that may help. and kind of letting the base no, it's okay. we have for president trump and then on your second question, i think look at suburban women and others. i mean, parents, families. this is something that a lot of voters care about and it's not just this cycle we saw it in the last cycle. foreign president trump had several losses in key swing states where abortion has been on the ballot and democrats have been sending folks like for vice president harris, two states where abortion will again be on the ballot >> the bidens, biden campaign is hoping that they can turn florida on this very issue, so yeah. thank you so much. appreciate it >> so what tortoise is due in the dark apparently there was

total eclipse, one researcher wrote quote another interesting behavior was with the slow moving galapagos tortoises during the last eclipse, they began moving much faster and some started made it joining me now, is that researcher, professor adam hartstone-rose, professor of biological sciences at north carolina state university, professor. i know the question. everyone wants an answer to is what made the tortoise is. so randy we have no idea. it seems crazy. i like to think that potentially in a long-lived species like this are rare event like that could be a signal for me. but it's probably a one-off. we don't know, but we're going to find out because we're going to be watching more tortoises today >> lucky tortoises let's just say that what other animals we'll be watching, what other animals have been watching, what we'll be watching for. and is it all pg rated?

>> maybe it's pg rated. animals will be animals after all, but we'll see what we see. we're going to be watching another fantastic group of gorillas were gonna be watching a group of bonobos. those animals can be pretty randi as well. so who knows what we'll see from them? we're going to be watching giraffes. there's an amazing array of wonderful animals here at the fort worth zoo. and i'm going to have researchers all over the place watching probably about 20 or 25 species. >> i mean, from what i know about bonobos, they don't even need a reason. but, but professor the eclipse they don't need a reason what is it specifically about an eclipse? tortoise isn't bonobos aside, what are the theories about what makes animals act the way they do? and how much of an advance before the eclipse begins will they start acting peculiarly? what do you know? >> those are really great questions and that's all things that we're trying to figure out in 2017 when we were watching animals, most of them behave as if it had become evening and

nighttime. so we think that actually the effects of the sun going down is what they were noticing. but a lot of the animals exhibited behaviours that we associate with anxiety. we don't know if it's the clips itself that makes them anxious or the crazy behaviour of the people around, because we are so excited. and as you know, if you have a dog, you might be like, oh my god, this is great and your dog will be like, oh, my god, this is great. and the dog has no idea what's great. so that might be something that's happening as well. >> every cat owner in this room that i'm in right now wants to know house pets is anything that we can expect with house pads >> i think so. so we did a preliminary study during the annular eclipse that happens in october. and the closer people were two totality, the more likely it was that they would see differences in behavior in their dogs well, it's interesting is that half of them reported that the dogs became super quiet during the eclipse, and the other half reported that their dogs started barking or howling during the eclipse. so we just need more data to figure out

some of these questions. >> if for all my immaturity this is actually genuinely fascinating stuff, professor, how long do you prepare? before and eclipse have you guys been planning since 2017 for this one >> pretty much. i mean, it's crazy. so this is such an ephemeral thing where i am, it's less than two minutes long and we've been planning for about six months just to be here putting people all over. it's costing so much money, so much time, so much investment smith, and then it's gone almost in a snap. >> do you need totality for it to work? do you need not just totality, but you need to be free from cloud cover that's a great question. so that's really two questions because one is what's happening off of the path of totality. all of north america is going to be under at least a partial eclipse. and we actually have a citizen science projects where anybody can watch animals during the eclipse from wherever they are and contribute data our project is called solar eclipse safari and

anybody can learn about it on solar eclipse safari.org. and we have all the tools to take data. and if people are off of the path of totality, that will tell us whether animals behave interestingly, when it's not 100% cloud cover, that's another question that we don't know the answer of a lot of us came to texas because the weather report six months ago looks like texas was the surest bet. and of course now it's looking like our friends up in buffalo and toronto and montreal might have clearer or whether we don't know, but that will help us answer those questions again, if there is cloud cover, do the animals react to the eclipse or not >> professor adam hartstone-rose. rose, i got to say, i can't wait to see what you find out. give the tortoise is the privacy they need that's my only request. professor. thank you so much. >> they're going to be very much overexposed, unfortunately, but we'll, we'll we'll see cool things that's for sure it depends what your definition of cool is. i appreciate it >> thank you >> country music star morgane
