5:00 am
seconds or less, republicans have notice that they can make some inroads with black man. >> listen, i think that the precarious point, right? republicans are trying for the first time they're trying are trying to message to working class people of color whether they are black, brown right there, you're saying, look, we've got we've got some solutions and also on some social issues. i think that republicans are kind of taken taken some votes away. so we'll see, we're making a bid for it. hopefully, you know, we get more and more people of color to come to our side and we eat away at the democratic margin. >> davidai, great to see you this morning i sell his great to see you and congratulations on the new book and waiting on a, waiting on the autobiography of john berman it's more of a pamphlet or the by the biography green cape. illustrated guy a cautionary tale already gave it. thanks. thanks a new era of cnn newsroom starts now those guys
5:01 am
are still onset cracking is up. >> okay. the gag order. did donald trump all highlighted if so, how many times the new york jets just taking this all on this morning has a former president heads back to court college campuses across the country grappling with growing pro-palestinian protests and the schools struggling to diffuse campus tension over israel's war with hamas more arrests overnight i'm kate baldwin with john berman and sara sidner. this is seen can i knew central probably now a live look at trump tow. >> seen you become very famili with wherwe're standing by to see and deep to that gagrder hearing y this morning for the first time since it's historic criminal trial bega trial proceedings wi be delayed ile the judge first decides if trump violated
5:02 am
the gag order in this case. as many as ten times. so that is what prosecutors are alleging. if the judge finds he did, there are some options. he could warn trump. he could find trump or he could jail donald trump. all three on the table before dtwo of testimony resume. cnn's bryngingras, liveutside of court bryn e contempt of court, a possibility for donald trump this mning. how ll this hearing go dow and there were any sense of how long might take befe ey get back to witnesthat at first ok t takinghe sta yesterday yeah. >> sara so the judge alrdy said they're going to art this hearing at 30 this morng. the juris goi to come back and the're goingo resume with that same witness at 100 a.m. if they're not finish with thhearing by 11, then th're going to discuss a little bit later. know th it only be an hour-and-a-half lf long for this hearing. and at we expect is what we've seen previously in court filings from the prosecution, they
5:03 am
believe that donald trump has violated this gag order ten you said, there are a couple options that they're asking for. they want the judge to fine trump $1,000 for each time they the judge believes that he may have violated this order, but ey also said that ey want the judge to remind trump that he is a criminal defendant in this se. and beusof that, that means that 's subject to court servision, aning th can put thein il if hee is gag order. we will see exactly w the judge les on hearinthat we haveeen waiting for since we he seen many social media posts that have come intouestion, we have seen donald tmp go to the cameras and talk about witnesses, which of courses par just a reminder for the viewers ase get into this hearing, that gag order was putting in place at the end of march& it forbids trump from talking about or putng on social mea anything disparangly abt the jurors in this case, the witnesses in this case
5:04 am
also, family members of the prosecution and the judge. so we'll see what the judge says when this here during gets started at 90 this morning and then there's obviously the rmer publisher of the enquirer, david started his testimony only have a ve short time yesterday. where do you thk that's going toick back up? yeah. she waseally just tting waed up for the prosution, rig? he was only on thetand forbout a half hour or s remember he is the former publisher, like you said, of the national enquirer, he's on t stand due to a subpoenahe had his own lawyers in the courtroom yesterday, and essentially what we've learned from the prosecution in an opening statements as they are going to lay out how they believe he was a coconspirator in the entire scheme that is at the center of this entire case of fact, they believe that he helped donald trump and michael cohen fine this story about stormy daniels pay her off and then keep it from the public eye. and i it's very likely we're going
5:05 am
to hear how david would do that numerous times for donald trump in the 2016 campaign different examples of stories that they would quote, catch and kill to keep negative. any negative stories about donald trump out of the spotlight. so it's likely we will hear how all those plans allegedly took place and he's a main witness for that when the events will come after him, he has an agreement of immunity. >> brynn jen grass. we will be wider watching. thank you so much. appreciate it. >> all right. well, this now cnn legal analysts, former us attorney michael moore, counselor, great to see you this morning. first this hearing over the gag order which kicks off fairly soon. what will you be watching for in this? >> yeah. well, i'm glad to be with you i think the judge is likely i just don't think he's going to take it quite seriously, maybe as the prosecutors do and i'm not saying that trump did not violate some things technically in the order. >> but when you look at the allegations of the order, it's things like where they were reposts there were things that
5:06 am
he said about michael cohen, despite the fact, of course that cohen has been all over the issue with trump's. so i think the judge will probably look at some type of admonishment. i think he's going to say, look, are you trying to intimidate jurors that doesn't seem to be the case. mr. district attorney, because we picked a jury fairly easily without much consequence, we were able to get them in the box within a week. and then, you know, whether or not they're spent some effort to intimidate witnesses. and i think that's an uphill battle to for the district attorney's office. so have there been technical violations and say yes, i mean, but at the same time, even if you read his april the first-order, i believe it was where he talks about the judge talks about that there is a first amendment right. this is a political sees that he has the defendant trump has a chance to respond to attacks and that type of thing, the argument will be made likely by trump's team that the comments by cohen and about cohen are sort of for tat and what may be good for the goose is good for the gander but it wouldn't surprise me to see some small fine. i think that's probably the way the judge will go in this case for some of the
5:07 am
violations. >> look there two things in this judge seems to prioritize, which is speed and also order. there really isn't too much he can do at this point if you want it to maintain even more order here we're donald trump that's right. >> i mean, i think the idea that he would incarcerate the former president is sort of nonsensical. i think that likely there will be some type of monetary fine, but i think more than anything else, this is a chance for him to sort of scold the children in the classroom about behave and improperly so before he brings out the switches and the paddles and those kinds of things, he's going to give them a good scold. and at the chalkboard and that's what you go see probably at man 30 all right. >> we're at a really interesting moment in this trial. the first witness is on the stand, david, and we just got the smallest preview yesterday of what his testimony will be. he talks about the fact that engages in checkbook journalism. why get that out there yesterday? and what do you need to do with him if you or the prosecution right out of
5:08 am
the gate today? >> he was a good witness for the prosecutors to call it first because juries like to hear a story and they want to follow that story through the presentation of evidence. and so he really does begin to talk about how this works the way that these stories come to him, the way that there's an effort put in place to keep him out of the media. and that time but thank keep keep the stories of the salacious stories at least away from the news. and so it's a good witness to start with. and i think the prosecutor probably put him up first because he is a witness. at the fence is likely to attack some what is conspirator and whether or not he was actually doing something that trump may not have known own the full extent of that type of thing, but he didn't have the same baggage at some of the witnesses we expect later in the case like cohen and maybe evening ms daniels by half and lucky was smiling when he was on the stand. he smiled at the defense. when he walked out. >> how much of a difference does that make when the jury see someone who seems to be comfortable? yeah, it makes a
5:09 am
difference because from the time that you entered the courtroom until the time you leave, it's a performance, it's theater really on the jury's looking at everything they do. i used to tell clients don't even smoke a cigarette walking from the parking lot. and because a juror may see you in any little thing may catch their attention. so just don't do it i, think it's important that they see that he's cuttable. >> he has one thing that might actually hurt the prosecution that is if he makes this whole idea of catch and kill sound normal, if he seems to say, look, this is just how we do it. >> this is the normal thing. this happens in all cases that we've done it for politicians throughout my time as the owner of the enquirer, if he talks about that that seems to come across as something that there's nothing unusual here. there's nothing particularly nefarious about trump's efforts to do this versus other politicians or other public figures that begins to sort of take the edge off the idea of, of how this was just constructed solely to have some interference in the election. it becomes more about this. this is just how things are done. if he does that that
5:10 am
could come back and be a problem that the district attorney's office has to overcome to show, in fact, this was at elicit conspiracy with criminal intent, which is only what they have to have to prove. that'll be really interesting to watch when he gets back on the stand in the, as you say, son of georgia theater michael moore, counselor. >> great to see you. thank you very much. greg american universities in crisis struggling to contain growing pro-palestinian protests on campus and sparking new fears over the safety and security purity of jewish students what students are saying, we will bring that new research shows that women are seeing better heal outcomes whenheir doctorare women. >> we ve more on the newata every piece of evidence tells a story how it really happened with jesse l. >> martin sunday at nine on cnn

5:16 am
the university's president to resign are growing. i'm joined now by editor and chief and presidt of the columbia spectator isabel ramirez. thank you so much for being here. first of all, can you just tell me what the temperature is on campus? what does it like being there and do you feel it? it is very present when you're on campus? >> absolutely. >> it has been an incredibly tense and emotional time on campus as of late for a university that is considered an activist iv. >> in my time at the university and my time as a reporter now as an editor this is probably the largest scale protests i have seen, both on and off campus. >> of course fst we've bee covering this since october 7 prominent protests that we had at that time was on october 12th. and but sincthen there s been a fluctuation and sort of what our campus has looked like remaining tense. but because of a series of crackdowns on policies, disciplinary action, we've actually seeing a dip in
5:17 am
protest, least recently. but this was or this past time has been really a revival of that and really in my gauge of the situion, i tly believe ts some of the songest sort of outpouring that i've seen in terms of the ottoms, win the demand that's th pro-palestinian protesters are requesting of the university specically are demanding what, what is the demand that woulchange this in the view? sureyes. so they have made it very clear that they do not intend to leave until the university divest from companies, both to essential ties to israel. and there has been an evolution of those demands as well, demanding for financial transparency and a series of also the reversal of the suspensions. and also the removal of the nypd from our campus. and so but i tnk the core of that demand is truly divestment and we been seeing
5:18 am
that spreang just yesterday lumbia college past the student body voted for a refendum advocating for divestment from israel on behalf of the univerty. >> we heard from y to receive president who talked about studentseeling like they were being intimidated and dealing with some threats, she talke about it antisemitis >> what are you hearing from jewish students who are also sort of seeing this? >> and i know there has been a little bit of back-and-forth sometimes you are students will come out and there'll ba back-and-forth bween the two groups. >> yeah, absolutely. i mean, there has certainly been a concern for jewish students on our campus tuition, israeli students and i think part of that there is a lot of nuance. there are still as well because just yesterday with the start of passover, we actually had jewish students hold the seder at the encampment. and so there's still remains an interesting divide there, but unniably there has certainly been anti-semitic incidents that have also happened in the
5:19 am
surrounding of these events of these protests. and have been in some instances, quite severe, lead to violence, violent rhetoric. and so that is certainly undeniable but there's also sort of ongoing conversation because there is actually quite not only jewish students, but quite a contingent of jewish faculty who are also navigating that space as both a jewish member of our community, but also someone who may have a diversity of viewpoints on this particular issue. and so i think very crucial to this has been, you how do we at the same time advocate for the ik-3? expression, the academic expression of students and faculty on our campus, while also mitigating the fact that there is incidences of rhetoric that goes too far of rhetoric that is inciting, at times violence, but also there is an important differentiation to know between what is happening on our campus, what is happening off campus, which is to say, people who are not
5:20 am
affiliated with the university and what they're saying. and that is certainly having impact on people. but being able to differentiate that from the parties that are on campus and also always being specific about who are the actors in this and who do we hold accountable? well, i think that's what are reporting has also aim to do is to really identify that and to really make clear and avoid overgeneralizations that can be very harmful for all the communities involved in this the university president and some of the student groups that are involved here have said that outside forces have exacerbated this there have sort of blown this up bigger is that is that true? i mean, i think i was actually in dc for the hearing on wednesday. and so being able to see that play out certainly highlighted that for me. i think there are certainly outside sort of political pressures. and in turn, terms of, like you said, columbia has become the epicenter of this idea of the american university coming
5:21 am
around this issue. and so what i've seen is that this is looping into larger conversations about de, on campuses, about sort of these big you're issues that we're contending with, not only within the university spheres, but just that politics out large. and so i think there is interesting microcosm columbia's campus of representing a polarization that i think is just something that we've spoken about just at-large in american politics, but also an interests in what is sort of like i said, dei universities, the roles of institutions in diversity, equity, inclusion, and the success and failures of what that has been it's really interesting to see what is happening on canvas and for some students, very scary for other students, they feel like freedom of speech it's been infringed upon& this fight is nowhere near over as you have said, isabel ramirez. thank you so much for coming on and 20

5:28 am
it was actually a reese release, so we can prepare. this one was just put straight onto their own social media accounts, which is a different way of doing things a royal source told me it wasn't edited we can't see anything in it that suggests it was manipulated any way. but the reason that's important is because the last picture they sent out was edited. it caused a storm of controversy and all sorts of conspiracy theories. i think this is a case of the palace sharing this moment. they've said they wanted to thank everyone for their best wishes to louis but also taking control of their own content, taking control of their own narrative. but also being as honest as possible. so they don't prompt all of these conspiracy theories that we had last time, k absolutely. >> max and i see a missing tooth in this photo and i loved that what does the tooth fairy bring to a the prince that is what we'd get down it's good to see you thank you so much

quote in competent crew that lacked proper skills and training and a new study out today, women are more likely to survive health issues when they're doctors are women, they are also less likely to be readmitted to the hospital with female doctors. the study showed the difference is just a quarter percent, but the researchers say that statistically significant. men and women both benefited from having female doctors, but there was a greater difference for women. the study was conducted over three years and as in the annals of internal medicine, today okay. thank you. okay. sarah, just days and it is too early to know the full impact of donald trump's criminal trial and how voters will feel about the former president being on trial. but this is a question that voters have weighed in on in the past. cnn's harry enten, he's been looking at it. he's here with me, harry, what are you seeing in polling? since the republican primary ended? and the focus has shifted into the courtroom. >> i think there's this idea
5:36 am
that the legal troubles that trump is facing have somehow helped him, but that's not something that i've necessarily seen in the recent data. so this is biden versus trump margin nationally. look in january and february, you had a pretty clear trump lead, right? plus five, plus four, plus five. and you have at the merits, pulled ahead, biden up by one, but within the margin of our trump lead, look at what's happened in april though. >> all of these polls, all of them have shifted to be more friendly to biden plus four plus three plus one, but it was plus for trump back in january and february, and plus five two now, plus two. >> so something is cooking. something is cooking in the polls and whatever for his cooking seems to be helping joe biden, one of the things that might be cooking is the fact that they attention has turned from the republican primary now to trump's legal problems because that's really been the math main thing that's been in the news, something is cooking. it sounds nefarious when it comes from harry enten yeah. is there any sign? so that you're seeing of what we it has been suggested donald trump has said that this attention, his legal
5:37 am
troubles, are helping him. >> yeah. so let's take a look here. this is the biden versus trump march by attention paid to trump's legal cases. this is from a recent york times sienna college poll. if you're spending if you're putting some attention, some are a lot of tension if you're looking at the trump trials, look at this biden leads among these voters by eight points. if you're paying little to no attention, trump leads among these voters by 18 points. so the more people are focusing in on the trump cases, they're actually more likely to vote for joe biden than for donald trump. the less attention shouldn't that you're paying, the more likely you are to vote for donald trump. so the fact is, if you're paying more attention, you're more likely to vote for joe biden, less attention, more likely to vote for donald trump. so i don't see the case that trump is making here. and also what about the, you know, if you're, if you're paying attention to what donald trump is saying about the trial, he's called every case against him, all of the cases he says a witch hunt are people buying into that? not really. so take a look at this question from nbc news, right? thinking about the upcoming trials trump's being
5:38 am
held to the same legal standard is others or being unfairly targeted. the urality, the clear plurality, 50% saying he's being ld to the same unfaly targeted. this rsus just basilly looks like what you would lookt 20:20, right whe biden beat tmp by about 4.5 percentage points. this looks very similar to me when you put it all together, it looks like the trials aren't helping trump. they may in fact be hurting them. >> so this is really interesting basis, if you will, like, if this is our base case as the days anwes and just continng here, that'll be really interesting to me. >> exactly. thank you, harry. thank u. sarah. >> all right. >> and just hours, former be back on the stand and donald trump's sh money trial prosecutors are arguing was the third partner in a catch and kill scheme to bury negative stories about donald trump and help his 2016 presidential campaign. but their friendship goes back much further than that. cnn's tom foreman has a look for you more than just
5:39 am
friends from back in the 90s, more than fellow new yorkers on a quest for power and fame. >> david and donald trump were for decades a match fade and media heaven. so how did it all come to this? >> i don't think they even paid any money to that tabloid. okay. >> i don't think we made a payment to that tablet. nobody except for me we'd be looked at like this. nobody for a long time, the relationship was good for both menn trump gave national enquirer or access to his fame. >> the tabloid gave him headlines. trump catches russia's white house spy. trump must build the wall. trump takes charge. the paper gave him it's first endorsement ever for president since trump return the favor i've always said, why didn't the national enquirer get the pulitzer prize for edwards and oj simpson, and all of these things with slashing and burning enthusiasm relentlessly posted false stories about political foes while reportedly suppressing embarrassments for
5:40 am
trump, like the time i'm first lady melania appear to slap his hand away on a foreign trip. >> but those who studied the two men did not see an equal relationship really looked up to donald trump, still does and he put his very important magazines to work for donald trump's interests then some big names had went too far in 2019 business mogul jeff bezos, for example, said threatened to release compromising photos of him unless bezos publicly refuted claims that the enquirer was improperly playing politics. lawyers called it negotiation it's absolutely is not extortion and not blackmail but is friendship with trump was already unraveling. >> he had started cooperating with the various authorities, looking into all of these deals. and now it is said that the tool friends do not even speak to each other but there
5:41 am
are certainly hearing from on the stand, donald trump is i wanted to ask you about the arrangement with donald trump. >> was this really tightly held secret? at the time it apprs that it was held by a limited number of peoplen the circle of david however, ose peop seem to been mainly bounby these non-disclosure agements. >> that was the bet that they wouldn't say anythingecause there's potentially a downside to it. but as you can see now, despite everything that they tried to sit up here, it's kind of a first rule of fight club. don't talk about fight club, but now everyone talking about fight club tom foreman bringing upight club, which i know you're a member of. know, i like to mix a metaphor just so perfecalright, let's, let's ntinue with fight club, joining us right now. is jim schultz is a cnn legal commentator and former trump white house lawyer. and
5:42 am
alan turkheimer, a jury consultant and attorney. thank you both for joining me. jim let me ask you. >> you were watching yesterday very closely. >> what are you interested in hearing? >> the prosecutors get into with david today so first of the prosecutors have a bunch of witnesses with baggage. david being one of them. right. so david made a deal. david is now turned on donald trump. i think the trump team is gonna look to discredit him for the deal well, that he caught i think they're going to try to impeach his testimony for that. but i think yesterday kinda set the table for the process today. i think we're going to hear some of the details as to how the deals were caught in david packers eyes? & allen. >> i heard you say yesterday that people that people need to remember something that people need to remember about jurors as jurors want a story, what kind of story does david what
5:43 am
kind of story does he tell for the prosecution? and also being the first witness, what is the overall what role does he play? do you think in the overall story you certainly gives jurors the ability to look into the window of donald trump's business dealings as it related to his election prospects. >> and what was going on and as was just mentioned, jim said that he these other witnesses, maybe they you have baggage, some of them jurors are going to wonder about their motives for testifying, but being such an early witness, it really sets the stage for jurors to create this overarching kd case story in their minds. and then once they do that, the other witnesses will either reinforce for them what that case story is, or if the witnesses get up there and there's some contradictions then that'll go against it. and i'm the jurors have to decide which are the witnesses is more believable than the others. >> and alan, when you're doing jury research and also when you're prepping legal teams, when it comes to witnesses with
5:44 am
baggage, you've got david today, you've got you. >> we know that the defense is going to focus squarely and try to discredit michael cohen. >> they already started that with opening statements how does that baggage how does that part of the story, how does that impact a juror and how illegal team successfully overcome that? >> are you have to remind jurors at these witnesses are under oath and whatever the circumstances are that brought them to testify, they have relevant information that bear on the actual charges in this case, you have to try to get the jurors. he focused on that you have to get the jurors to focus on what the witness says, what they testify to, end jurors look at a lot of things. they look at motivation, they look at whether witnesses are consistent. they look at whether or not they're knowledgeable, are they evasive are they they come off as arrogant and a lot of times two, which is interesting, is a jurors look at non-verbal communication as well, so they don't just look at what the witnesses actually saying that is important, but they're also look at how the witness is
5:45 am
saying it and how they come off when they're testifying under oath and what's really important to is consistency between directed cross-examination. so david is getting his story out for the prosecution when he's cross-examine the jurors will be very interested to see if his demeanor totally changes or whether or not he's consistent in the way he's answering questions from opposing counsel. >> that's a good point, jim. one thing that came out of openings was that the prosecution once to portray this case as it election interference case, not as a hush money case, as it's been described for so long what do you think of that choice? why do you think they're making? maybe it's not a shift for them, but it's definitely shift from how it has been described for quite some time so i think the purpose, they need a theme of the case, right. what's their theory of the case? the theory of the cases the business records were doctored because they were trying to hide this information from the general public during election cycle right? the
5:46 am
problem with that is, is that that in and of itself is not a crime. politicians try to hide their baggage all the time from the general public when they're running for office. so now they have to look, look at the true crimes that make this a felony, right? remember, this would have been a misdemeanor, but for the fact that they made allegations that crime sims were covered on campaign finance, tax, those kinds of things. they're going to have to make a showing on that at some point in time and they're not gonna be able to just rely on, hey, we were trying to cover up donald trump's baggage for purposes of election. and that's gonna be a real tough hurdle. the to jump over. >> yeah, alan, you were talking about demeanor. you've years of experience with jury research and helping legal teams prep for trial. i'm interested in your take on the trump demeanor in court. we don't have cameras in there, but from everyone who's inside, it's really they've described him so far is pretty controlled and muted compared to how he's acted and passed court appearances how much coaching conversation do
5:47 am
you have with the client about how they act in court when the jury is present, what impact do you think his demeanor in court in this case could make? on the jury so you always tell a client that the jury is always watching watching them. >> so don't don't don't slip up. don't don't do anything that you think is going to irk the jury, stay calm, stay focused. stay interested, don't don't come off as if you're uninterested in the process of jurors are giving their time. this is so important and i think he's going to heed that call. >> this is not like any of his campaign rallies or campaign events or even the debates that he participated. and so this is a very different process. i think it's really important for trump and his team to keep in mind that he has to just respect the process and come off as someone who's treating this very seriously because these are serious charges and he deserves a presumption of innocence. >> i'll save it. how how that
5:48 am
demeanor and how that comes across from day to day today. it's good to see you both. thank you. >> sarah. >> all right. the biden administration is taking new steps now to try and protect patients seeking reproductive health care services like an abortion or ivf. the new rule protects patients and providers even if a patient travels to another state. to receive care. this is the latest effort by president biden after roe v. wade was overturned by the supreme court and republican-led states across the country have moved to restrict and even criminalized access to abortion care. cnn's jacqueline howard has more on this story what are you learning about this new rule that has been put in place? and what it means to patients and providers yes. >> era because, you know, under hipaa are medical information has always been protected, but what this new rule does, it strengthens those protections for patients, especially those receiving reproductive health care services. so whether a patient had a pregnancy test whether they're undergoing ivf
5:49 am
this new role maintains that their medical data cannot be used to target them or track them, or target or track their family, or target, or track their provider. and one way federal health officials are putting this sarah, you see here it says it prohibits health care providers from being targeted with that medical data. and it also ensures that no one should live in fear that their medical records can be used against them. here's what health and human services secretary javier becerra had to say please make no mistake. >> you when you access care, when you go see a doctor, when you enter a hospital, when you see a medical professional and you provide because you're required or you requested very personal health information that information is entitled to protections under federal law
5:50 am
and sara, this new role, it's been issued at a time when of course, since the overturning of roe v. >> wade, there have been a lot of questions among patients around whether their medical data could be used against them. so this answers some of those questions, especially for those living in states with abortion bans jacqueline howard. thank you so much for bringing us that story we appreciate it live pictures. let's go to live pictures right now inside the new york courthouse, donald trump has just arrived to the court moments ago when you see people hustling in there, the trial resumes today with the prosecution's first witness. but before that, a here ring where the judge is going to determine if donald trump is already violated the gag order. prosecutors have accused him of violating it. ten times. you've seen the rushing around in the court. there are special live coverage is coming up next and it was a very long distance call. nasa back in

from the nation's capital, one of the most unforgettable nights in dc. >> that's wonderful. read back here again, president biden and comedian collin joseph headline the white house correspondents dinner live saturday at seven eastern on cnn rafael romo, the georgia state capitol in atlanta. this is cnn alive look now inside the courthouse, donald trump has arrived just a few moments ago and he is there. initially for a hearing on a gag order accused of violating the gag order, the judge, looking at all the options there, then they will begin testimony again with the former publisher of the enquirer, david. we will have all of that for you and a special report in just a bit. but for right now, for the very first time in five months, nasa is finally back in
5:56 am
communication with voyager 1, the spacecraft is about 15 billion miles away and it's been stuck in a data loop since november, the mission team received the first coherent data this week from earth's most distant spacecraft, cnn space correspondent, kristin fisher is joining me now. kristen, how in the world they managed to fix this. i understand it's like a 46 year old spacecraft and it's been out of commission for a while yeah, we'll sarah, keep in mind voyager one and voyager to its sister spacecraft. >> they were only designed to last about five years. they've lasted 46 years and voyager 1 is now, as he said, about 15 billion miles away, million, billion miles away in interstellar space, way beyond our solar system. and so these spacecrafts are just really old and they're really far away. to begin with. but in november of 2023, sara voyager 1 the
5:57 am
engineers started noticing that voyager 1 was sending back data that was indecipherable. basically, the data that was being sent back to earth in a code of zeros and ones was stuck in a loop. and so nasa engineers were stuck with this problem of how do we troubleshoot an issue with voyager one when this spacecraft is billions of miles away and get this, it takes 22 hours for a signal on earth to reach voyager 1. and then another 22 hours for that signal to get back from voyager one down to earth so two days from the time you send the code, you poke the spacecraft to the time it gets back to earth. so those are just some of the issues that they were dealing with. they were able to track the problem to one single chip. we don't know what went wrong, sarah, it might have just worn out after 46 years. it might have been hit by too much radiation in space, whatever they did, the nasa engineers here's were able to get it out of that stuff loop.
5:58 am
they were able to stop that chip from what it was doing and move the memory that it was storing elsewhere and just a few days ago, sarah, they were able to get their first readable understandable signal from voyager one. so it is back and it is sending us, you know, we're not getting those images they're of jupiter and saturn that you're seeing. i mean, those are the images that voyager is so well known for. but everything else is just, just gravy. now, sarah only supposed to last five years. that's kind of how my professors in college thought i would last. but there's no way in journalism, but there's no way last and 46, i can tell you that. so so kudos to voyager 1 kristin fisher. thank you so much earlier reporting massacre sad but true there's love here, for you. there's lots satellite that's exactly right.
5:59 am
>> okay. >> the senate, not a space satellite. the senate is ready to act today. what could be the final stop for the foreign aid package before it heads to the president after months of fighting really infighting among house republicans. this is where they have landed a $95 billion package that includes $61 billion for ukraine 26 billion for israel, and $8 for taiwan. and the indo-pacific. but you also see there now attached to all of this a move that would ban tiktok in the united states or force the china-based parent company to sell it off. cnn's lauren fox tracking all of this for us lauren, what are we going to see happen in the senate today? >> yeah the senate was supposed to be on recess this week. k, but they view this package, this aid package is so crucial and so necessary that lawmakers returned in order to try to get this through the united states senate. what we expect to see today is that 1:00 p.m. they will begin a series of
6:00 am
procedural votes. now there are still negotiation happening between republican and democratic leadership to try to find some kind of an agreement to expedite this process and potentially get a final vote on this package. today, that agreement has not been reached. those so there is a possibility that the senate will come back tomorrow to try to finally finish this work up. but again, lawmakers were supposed to be gone. and oftentimes jet fumes can be really motivating when it comes to getting senate agreements to move things through the process more quickly, you're also going to see this moment for minority leader mitch mcconnell, which i think is just really important to point out, he has been a leader on this issue, has been talking about the importance of getting ukraine additional aid despite some opposition from conservatives, despite shrinking republican public polling that showed republican voters were growing less supportive of the package he was out there at every turn,
