sweeping across american college campuses at arizona state police say they've arrested 69 people for trespassing after a large group formed in an authorized encampment to protest the war in gaza, according to the school, most of the people we're not a su students faculty, or staff at northeastern university in boston. the campus is all clear and has resumed normal operations police, they're detaining about 100 people this morning in a statement, northeastern officials say they believe professional organizers join the ranks of students protesters, and police in washington, dc are also keeping a close eye on demonstrators at george washington university earlier today, they blocked a street but remained in peaceful let's go now to other campuses across the country. cnn's camila bernal and polo sandoval. are with us right now. camila, you're at ucla. what's happening there? >> hey, bright, it's relatively peaceful and quiet
12:02 pm
here at ucla. but as you can see behind me, the encampment is here and it does take up a large part of the university, the university actually saying that they also have staff members for people who do not feel comfortable walking through this area or letting them know that this is what's going on. here. i do want to say that. no one is allowed inside unless they let you they were not allowing us to go inside, but what they're saying is that some of the students are saying there the entire time others are coming and going and what they're telling me is that they want this university to divest from israeli lin companies that there are profiting from the war in gaza. and they say they want to see that accountability from the university. and then they may be we'll leave this encampment. they say they're not giving up. you're seeing many, many tents and what they're telling me is happening inside is that they're having lessons about the political conflict in the middle east. they're having religious ceremonies because they believe that this is the space where they can do that. i spoke to a jewish student that
12:03 pm
is part of these efforts and take a listen to what he told me work here in our university, but we know that every university in gaza has been turned into a graveyard. >> and as students, as jews, as palestinians, as allies in the united states, we want to end our complicity. the us government and us institutions are completed sit through their funding the ucs have investments tied up with the asset manager blackrock, which investment of up in this manufacturing. and we're here to say that our institutions need to be supporting us. and we refuse to be complicit in about violence against palestinians and men told me that it was extremely important for him as a jew to be here supporting this movement in terms of this university, they say they will not call police officers until it's needed for the safety of their students. >> so in the meantime, you are seeing a lot of security guards
12:04 pm
walking around and going around in their bikes that those were hired by the university. but again, they will say that they will not call police until it is needed for the safety of the people here over at usc, though, the campus essentially shut down, we're not not allowed to go there after the protests this week. they're commencement ceremony also, not happening this year and keep in mind that the graduates this year we're also the 2020 graduates in high school. so they did not have a graduation then the university saying they're going to hold other events to try to get these graduates to have a special moment as well. well, but again, a lot of things just disrupted in this university and at usc as well. >> yeah. all right. camila, her now at ucla. thank you so much. let's go to new york now and polo sandoval was at the campus of columbia university, which sparked a lot of these protests across my country. so what's happening there paula? >> for friday, it is certainly not lost on the members of the cabinet that those pictures
12:05 pm
that kamila just showed you that way protests, they originated in a very spot that you see behind me here in the heart of columbia university. a member of this encampment telling me just a short while ago today on the saturday, it is business as usual, of course, that has been redefined for the last week and a half as we continue to see this protest or presence on this lawn here yesterday after hearing from one of the two go shaders, bakhmut khalil it's been negotiating with numbers. here as they tried to find, find some common ground and eventually to be able to take all of this down. khalil telling us that it seemed is ongoing negotiations if they haven't stalled they at, least have slowed in saying that though there has been some progress that was made, they still have not been able to find that common ground which leaves things very much much open-ended here, fred, we also heard from organizers, really leaders of the and cabinet who told us that thus far they don't expect any update in those negotiations. started last friday today to be updated. this weekend. the next update could potentially come
12:06 pm
on monday. we also heard from these organizers of the protest at said that they have not been offered any guarantees by the columbia president that they will not once again turn to the nypd to force any of the participants of this campus off the area here and then finally, there's this really has now left so many students kind of a state of uncertainty. this we get an opportunity to speak to a student who is expecting to graduate from columbia university next month keep in mind, he started his under graduate studies in 2020 when the pandemic interrupted his studies. now he faces the possibility with this ongoing demonstration. today is very much peaceful potential disruptions there as well. so really just another voice as we continue to wait and see what kind of resolution the university will eventually try to find with members of this in cabinet that set up almost and then polo north are there in boston at northeastern university. we've heard about
12:07 pm
deep tensions on that campus. what do you know about 100 individuals that were detained yesterday at northeastern university in boston, vice president of communications, saying that this was part of their of cleaning up that campus, trying to remove anybody who's not affiliated with the university were told by campus officials that those that provided identification were released, but face the possibility but if disciplinary action from the diversity, those who refuse to identify themselves, they were detained. >> so it really, what we have seen here for the last two weeks, just a snapshot of what continues to play out. as our colleague camila just just showed us in other parts of the country. >> all right. >> polo sandoval in new york at columbia university. thank you all right. >> colombia has become a flashpoint in the nationwide campus protests. but now one of the leaders of the school's demonstrations is banned from campus. cnn's miguel marquez has more zionists don't
12:08 pm
deserve to live comfortably. let alone zionists don't deserve to live. >> commodity. james eight folks person for this student protests at columbia university said this more than once in a personal social media post in january the same way we're very comfortable accepting that nazis don't deserve to live bashes don't deserve to live racist. >> don't deserve to live zionist they shouldn't live in this world confronted by cnn about his comments, james unapologetic. i think we need to shift the conversation from people's comfort to the hundreds of thousands of people who have been displaced. the tens of thousands of people who have been murdered by israel. i think harder your words help? i think it's very important to your words i think it's very
12:09 pm
important for people to understand that the conflation of anti zionism with anti-semitism is woefully incorrect and wrong again, so do you apologize? again? as i mentioned earlier, we believe in the sanctity of life here at this encampment despite his calls for a class of people cool to cease existing, james nearly daily expresses his belief that israel is committing genocide. >> while israel plans to move forward with its genocide, backed by the united states and other western powers it is important to remember why we are here after being confronted james released a statement saying, in part, i am frustrated that the words i said in an instagram live video have become a distraction for the movement for palestinian liberation. i misspoke in the heat of the moment for which i apologize some jewish students
12:10 pm
at columbia say they have been called zionist by protesters just for being jewish. other jewish students have taken an active part in the protests for what they view as an overbearing israeli response to the october 7, hamas terror attack. and a weak us response to continued bloodshed it's possible that pro-palestine protest might make some jewish students feel uncomfortable, but i will emphasize that the pro-palestine protest here at the encampment are they have fundamental values against hate and bigotry. columbia university spokesperson tells cnn that commodity james this has now been banned from campus, but won't comment any further on ongoing disciplinary proceedings. back to you. >> all right. miguel marquez. thanks so much. up next, communities across the heartland are beginning to clean up after devastating tornadoes rip through the central plains will speak to the mayor of all omaha about the situation on the ground and 55 million people are still

12:16 pm
in the risks this is happening after devastating tornadoes rip through the central plains overnight causing widespread damage. >> a lot of developments are unfolding for the latest, i'm joined now now by cnn's lucy kavanaugh in hard-hit elkhorn, nebraska and meteorologist elisa raffa, who is following conditions from the cnn weather center. >> so lucy, let's go to you first. what are you hearing from residents? >> well, actually fred first of all, to homes two-storey homes completely flattened here now a fork can over a little bit here we see a lot of volunteers and residents who were doing active cleanup efforts here they are part of the local hindu temple which has about 5,000 members. and the nashville india association of nebraska, but they are all packing up their things right now as you can see, because there is concern about another weather front moving through here. in fact, you remember it was sunny when we spoke earlier. you can see the clouds moving in so people
12:17 pm
definitely want to get to safety here. but before that's term does move in, i just want to give you a little bit of a look of what we're looking at here this home, half of that roof collapsed. we saw a child and a parent here trying to collect and salvage whatever items they had. the house next to it largely standing a little the back of it is destroyed. you can see again the homeowners have these trucks here. they're trying to salvage what they can of the items inside most of the families here were sheltering in there basements. that's what prevented so much loss of life and also their early warning system. and i just want to get around this vehicle here to show you there is some point. we'll see it. there's a dumpster over there, there's actually two dumpsters that have been completely full of debris and these are not folks from the state or the local these are not officials were helping with clean up these are
12:18 pm
volunteers from the community. this is not official. people are really coming into help. and i believe we also have a shot of a drone that's giving us to overlook what that drone should be showing you fred is that street that we're speaking at earlier where so many homes were were flattened to our people again are trying to salvage what they can from their possessions. there is so much shock. all this happened so quickly, there's not really a lot of time hi, i'm to process the emotional impact of all of this but yeah, people for now, pausing some of the construction efforts and what i'd actually love to end on a little bit of a positive note. this property destroyed the flowers are still standing little bit of optimism in this time of tragedy, fred, uh, yeah, every little bit counts. but yeah those are the contradictions that come with tornadoes every time. all right. thank you so much, lucy
12:19 pm
elisa, i mean, we're just hearing of more torn attic activity that could be on the way. what should people be racing for? >> a lot of the same that we had yesterday today's bullseyes really going to be in oklahoma area all you see here in the red from southern iowa through parts of kansas into oklahoma, even down into texas. all of this is new tornado watches that are in effect as we go through the afternoon. now, this one in particular, this one here in oklahoma, that does now include oklahoma city and norman, oklahoma. is it particularly dangerous situation that is a very rare type? tornado watch only issued about 7% of the time. and what that means is that we're not only worried about tornadoes were worried about strong tornadoes, ef three or stronger, because these storms are just really firing up and they just have so much juice in the atmosphere to work with. we do have a tornado warning. there were parts of northern texas, a lot is your thunderstorm warnings right now? just to the west there of oklahoma city. but again, we're bracing for things to blow up and explode even more. the risk
12:20 pm
for today really is almost bored border to border. it's that red area. there were especially concerned about that moderate risk. it's a level four out of five. we're looking at the threat of again, very strong tornadoes, damaging winds up to 75 miles per brouwer and tennis ball-sized hail in this red hatched area there that includes tulsa, oklahoma city, wichita falls. we're looking at the possibility of again, very strong tornadoes, ef three, ef four possible similar to what we saw yesterday, that would cause severe damage because we're talking about wins upwards of 135 miles per hour on that ef scale, the enhanced fujita scale that we use to determine what that damage looks like. so just again, a very serious de on top of this, we also had a high risk issued for the heavy rain for some of those same suburbs era of oklahoma city, just to the east of oklahoma city. that is also very rare, only issued 4% of the time but its responsible for 40% of our flood related deaths. and 80% of our flood related damages. so just
12:21 pm
incredible what the atmosphere has set up for us today, storms continue to blow up as you go into the afternoon, they could start to organize and to align as we go into sunday, that would bring the damaging wind thread a little bit farther to the east. we have another de is severe weather to watch out for as we go through today, the day tomorrow, this threat doesn't look like it's as concerning for the strong tornado threat, but we could still pack damaging winds up to 70, 75 miles per hour and some pretty large hail. some of those areas still the same from southern iowa down through missouri and then includes parts of arkansas to a couple of busy days ahead for all big concerns. >> all right. at least a rafah. thank you so much. >> already in omaha nebraska, the elkhorn community was one of the hardest hit areas, but the city reports no deaths, only a few minor injuries omaha mayor jean star, third joining me now on the phone with a very late latest mayor, told me about the destruction that you have been seeing yes. it's quite widespread in a certain
12:22 pm
area of town. it's basically are northwest portion of omaha in the elkhorn area. but with all the destruction that i have seen, i must say without one death and i'm not very few injuries, minor injuries. and i really would be have to say i'm so grateful to our early warning that we have had here with thanking our weather forecasters for clear inaccurate warning or sirens that we're going off really alerted people and a lot we're just hunker down on in there basements. but thank god with all of this destruction, it's estimated right now, early estimates are about 100 homes or damaged severely in about 50 of those 100 words, totally destroyed. and without one death, that is something that's really amazing. so i give all the credit to our weather forecasters and for all early warning, but we still have a lot of work to do. >> it is amazing. i mean, and that you credit the early warnings, end those basements
12:23 pm
how remarkable. now, what are your concerns about people who are not professionals in this debris? removal, but that they're out there helping neighbor helping neighbor. we just heard are lucy kafanov report on seeing that a community really coming together. but then what are your concerns about the the risks that come with that? >> right. and then this is part of it, but yesterday omar fire department, omaha police department, they mobilized very quickly, infect a storm was still here. they set up their command centers immediately out in that area and then yesterday evening, it was all hands on deck with the omaha fire department and they were going house to house property to property that was damaged to make sure into search and rescue that anybody that was in there that they would find and get to safety right now, i will say that response we have had from our community is pretty amazing. and that's not just from our city partners in government, but are non-profit sectors and they're all
12:24 pm
continuing to work with us to provide support and resources. so on my web page for the city of omaha, we are reporting all of these things that we think people need to know what services are available. we set up one of our community centers out in elkhorn last night, very quickly for shelter. there was about 100 people pull that needed shelter immediately. we provided that working with the salvation army red cross. all of those entities, or a great help, but we just want to tell people to be very, very careful also, we still have some last night at the peak we had about 10,200 homes that were without power. we're down to about 4,300 now. some of our distribution network was heavily damaged, but there are some areas that we are not re-energizing yet because we have lines down power lines down. and if we would re-energize them than those would be live lines laying on the ground. so we really want to make people very, very cautious. thank them for what they're doing and what they're doing to help but they still
12:25 pm
have to be cautious that it's still a potentially dangerous situation, right in fact, you heard from our meteorologist, i mean, still more bad weather on the way. >> so what do you tell people? >> how does a city prepare? well, these are unexpected events, weather events like this, natural disasters are and we prepare for the worst and hope for the best. and so we are making sure that everyone here is aware of what the resources we have available for them now. but also, there's a potential of more bad weather today and tomorrow too. so we just want them to be alert and aware as they were yesterday and to listen to what's going on in the news and what the information we're giving them. and if it's necessary, they may have to take shelter again, which i certainly don't want to have to do, but that's a potential i will sign today a disaster proclamation which request? state and federal assistance. and it also lets the community know that these are unexpected expenses and
12:26 pm
that we're going to have to deal with them and pay for a lot of cleanup. >> so that will be done this afternoon. >> we're providing free disposal sites we have to now designated that for tree debris in that area and they will be open every day. and so we will just continue to get people updates on the city's web page and just makes sure that people stay tuned to what's going on on television, weather, weather forecasters, all right. >> omaha, nebraska mayor jean stoddard. >> thank you so much. and all the best to you and your community you bet. thank you. >> evacuation orders remained in place after a train carrying propane derailed near the arizona, new mexico border, huge flames could be seen billowing from the tangled, overturned train cars. the burning hazardous material force, part of ai 40 to be shut down. no reports of injuries, the cause of the derailment is unclear right now, the ntsb is investigating us secretary of transportation, pete buttigieg

12:41 pm
president to speak to a crowd of nearly 3,000 journalists. select birdies and politicians. and will it's usually a fun affair. it also comes as he faces low approval ratings. so it is still high stakes for him especially during a presidential election year. now up until this point, there has been a lot of prep behind the scenes for this that includes huddling with his advisors, as well as some submitted king within his own orbit jokes for the evening because again, this is also an opportunity for the president to have some fun to needle the media and his republican rival, donald trump. but in remarks before the president has also gone between being funny and being serious. and that is certainly going to be the case tonight, especially with the backdrop of the conflict things that are unfolding abroad, but also with journalists who are detained abroad. so while he is going to flex his muscle when it comes to jokes, it's also a way in which he's going to make sure to strike a serious tone, especially when it comes to
12:42 pm
journalism. freedom of speech, or two, and the common if likes that are unfolding abroad. but all the same, fred, it is a highly anticipated night it's one that the president has been preparing for, for days now, including his advisers and get another opportunity to hear from the president during a high-stakes moment. >> all right. priscilla alvarez at the white house. thanks so much. >> all right. ahead of tonight's correspondents dinner, president biden made news by saying he's happy to debate donald trump in the lead up to this year's election. it's the first time biden has said so explicitly in this campaign earlier, he told reporters any possible plans as for debate would depend on trump's behavior biden's latest comments came in a wide ranging surprise interview with shock jock howard stern i don't know if you're going to debate your opponent. i am somewhere i don't know why. i'm happy i'm joined now by cnn senior political analyst, ron brownstein. he's also a senior editor for the atlantic great to see you okay.
12:43 pm
>> well, any surprise here that the president would say, yeah, he's willing to debate yeah. >> well, first this never happened. i mean, you know, benjamin harrison and grover cleveland didn't debate in 18 92 teddy roosevelt running as a third-party candidate, didn't debate william howard taft and woodrow wilson in 1912, we've never had a debate between two people who had been president as far as i know, in any circumstance. so it would be obviously something historic. i have been dubious that they would actually debate, as you know, the republican national committee pulled out of a cooperation with the commission on presidential debates. they had been demanding all sorts of changes that would have been more favorable to trump i thought biden would not be that angle wishes to get on a stage with trump, again, african of the hectoring performance that he saw in 2020. but each of them are making comments that are moving us toward that possibility. and so i think you
12:44 pm
now have to say it is at least on the table, but whether they'll be able to get through all the details to actually stand across from each other. i'm not sure, but it certainly seems more possible than it does six months ago. >> so if they do it how important our debates really, i mean, how influential might potentially be well, we are a very dug in country, right? and there are not a lot of moving pieces in the electorate in many ways it's not so much voters who are choosing between biden and trump as the choosing between one of them and not voting. and the reality is, one pulse are for a general election? the presidential candidate once said to me, he said the cruel irony of this business is that the people of the most influence are the ones are paying the least attention. i mean, basically the last eight or 10% of the who is really untethered from both parties. so historically, debates have not had, had a huge effect. but i do think this is a tight race and at the moment arch and everything
12:45 pm
matters. so if they do get on, they do get on a debate stage. it would certainly be a high risk, high visibility of it. okay. all right. let me pivot to these new comments from former trump appointed us attorney general, bill barr, who has said in the past that donald trump should and should be nowhere near the oval office because of there's efforts to overturn the 2020 election. he now says he will still vote for him this november. take a listen your voting for someone who you believe tried to subvert the peaceful transfer of power that can even achieve his own policies that lied about the election, even after his attorney general told him that the election wasn't stolen and as the former chief law enforcement in this country, you're going to vote for someone who is facing 88 criminal counts well, look, the ada criminal counts. a lot of those are in my and i said are ten of them are accurate? >> the answer the question is yes. i'm supporting i'm supporting the republican ticket all right.
12:46 pm
>> so what do you make of bars, justification and that of other republicans who would first said trump's should be nowhere near the responsibility of being present yet now are changing their tune yeah, you know what the political scientists call negative partisanship is a hell of a drug. >> i mean, basically, what you see are these leaders like mitch mcconnell who trump's trump has attacked his wife in a racist term saying he's he's gonna vote foreign after the speech he gave immediately following january 6. and what they are arguing essentially is that joe biden's liberal policy agenda is a greater threat rid of risks, the future of the country. then the demonstrated evidence that trump is willing to undermine the rule of law roughly we're quarter of republican voters think trump did something wrong after 2020. what bar is saying is emblematic of the bigger question, what do they do all right, ron brownstein, we'll leave it there for now.
12:47 pm
>> thanks so much. >> thanks for having me and tonight live from the nation's capital president biden and comedian collin joseph headline the white house correspondents dinner are in an coverage hosted by john berman and sara sidner is live tonight at 7:00 eastern time on cnn and streaming on macs we'll be right back what is it about the titanic why are we so obsessed with this ship every piece of evidence tells a story 100 years? later? it's still leaving people who are deaf this special to our titanic per meter of how would really happen all week now want cnn carroll marry me, karatay bought a sale on sky writing
