anniversary of brown versus the county board of education. the supreme court case that sought to end segregation in public schools. cnn's arlette saenz is at the white house this morning. so what are these plans are well, john black voters were key to biden's reelection back in 2020. >> and once again, the president is trying to make this fresh appeal to hold don to support from that group amid signs of some erosion in support for biden from black voters. now, this will include a series of events playing out over the course the next three days starting here today in washington, dc, the president will speak at the african american history museum here to mark the 70th anniversary of brown, brown versus board of education. that supreme court ruling that determined that segregation in us schools was unconstitutional. just yesterday, the president hosted the plaintiffs of brown v. board of education. first of education here at the white house, as he's trying to show that he's committed to protecting the advancements

made by the black community in his time in office. but the marquee is likely to be his sunday remarks at the morehouse commencement ceremonies a visit that has been mired in controversy over the president's handling of the conflict in gaza. some faculty and students on campus expressed frustration with the fact that or house invited president biden despite those people opposing the way that he's handled this conflict just last week, the white house sent down a top senior adviser start to hear out students and faculty on gaza and a host of other issues and biden's advisers that i've spoken to heading into this weekend, tell me that he is intent on trial trying to keep the focus on the graduates, even as the prospect of protests linger over the event. but this all columns of the president has been working to try to shore up support among black voters, which were key to his election back in 2020. but there has been pulling showings, a narrowing of support among the black community between him and former president donald trump. now, biden in a series of radio

interviews, this week, uh, talked about the threat that trump could pose to the country if he's reelected, take a listen understand that. >> the, black community is critical, critical, critical for the growth in security to country. >> but guy and running against has done nothing for the african-american virtually nothing except criticizing remember what trump is he falsely accused the central park five. we were found her birth. if you tried to repeal obamacare the first time, right. now he's promised you even more damage now the, president's advisers that i've spoken to have acknowledged that one he needs to start to promote some of the accomplishments that he's done for the black community more on the campaign trail, he's talked about ways that he has tried to alleviate student debt. >> talk about ways that he has tried to address economic issues for black americans, but they've also pointed to the fact they need to continue to remind voters of what a

trump's four years in office were like, what it could mean if he's reelected. this is all part of the push that we should expect. like to see in the coming weeks and coming months and are trying to shore up support among this key group that is typically been a core support source of support for the democrats in presidential elections. >> let's size at the white house this morning. thanks so much. >> so after what michael cohen appeared to hand trump's defense team yesterday, how are prosecutors planning to clean that up? >> now? >> and brand, and brand new covid, variance are threatening to disrupt. some are plans, the details on what is happening with this right now and personal attacks, body shaming, and a contempt vote. not just our morning pump up retained for cnn news central? no, no, no. a late night house committee can you hearing completely falling apart five i hope you brought your popcorn

virgin grasses hear brynn being the one having to go through all of it, digest it all to continue the weird metaphor. what happened and what prosecutors now need to figure out. yeah. i mean, let at michael cohen on the stand for eight hours and he's not done yet and he's going to come back up on monday for more cross-examination. >> but basically, todd blanche spent much of his time with him kinda paint ding him as a prolific liar are trying to challenge what his memory was about certain events like did he ask for a part part entity not ask for a pardon did he wanted us job in the white house? >> do not want a job in the white house. so that was a lot of the time spent, but there was a crucial moment. we're todd blanche went after some of the testimony that michael cohen gave for the prosecution on monday, and i want to walk through these full screens with you. so you understand it had to do with the october 24, 2016 call where michael cohen essentially told the prosecution that he was calling to talk to donald trump about the stormy daniels payments obviously, this is what's central to the entire case from that monday transcript. susan hoffinger says, why did you need to speak with mr. trump at that point in the evening of october 24, fourth and cohen replied to discuss the stormy

daniels matter and the resolution of it. now, fast-forward to yesterday. and todd blanche challenged that essentially said that was a lie. you we're actually talking to mr. schiller, who is the bodyguard of donald trump about the fact that you are getting harassing phone calls from a 14-year-old, correct. and cohen said part of it was 14 year-old, but i know that keith was with mr. trump at the time and there was more than potentially just this that's what i recall based upon the documents that i reviewed. so that was a crucial moment because it really puts some holes in the prosecution stories about donald trump actually knowing about these hush money payments. so that's certainly something that they're going to have to address. on redirect. now let's get into the timing of the rest of this trial. redirect expected to happen on monday. michael cohen is gonna be back on the stand. they expect to finish with him. todd blanche, the defense for about a couple of hours, and then redirect and then the judge is hoping that they have closing arguments on tuesday, but there's a lot of days off next week because of the memorial day weekend, there's friday off when his day off monday.

>> so the judge was a little worried about the timing here because he doesn't want to get into closing arguments, juries, instructions, and then go away for the weekend for four days. >> when the jury has the case. so there may put in some longer days next week, they may. >> yeah. we'll see what happens, but we're getting to the end. >> we are getting to the end. and as they're not as courtroom it's not in session today. it is a wild way. they haven't totally. thank you, brian. yeah, sir. all right. still had called taylor swift. >> we need sign off on this nfl schedule? no. really the very legitimate reason the nfl consulted swift's i'm certain schedule. >> this offseason and it was set to be a serious contempt of congress vote, but it will devolved oh, girl, baby girl. >> oh, really don't even play more, than, $500 million in art stolen me, saw what turned out to be the biggest archivist in

representative alexandria ocasio-cortez coming into defend crockett, arguing that marjorie taylor greene should not have commented on the physical appearance of another member, then there was sort of a series of confusing discussion, confusing votes over whether or not to strike the record essentially zero out what marjorie taylor greene had said during that hearing. here's what happened next that ms green agrees to stracher words. i believe share. hold on. then after mr. perry, she'll be recognized and ms i'm not what i am not a problem sizing hello. >> come on, guys why don't you debate me and mr. chairman the minority cells ever ricky, you're not yeah. >> you're not you don't have enough and chair recognizes mr. perry. >> okay. moves his truck good morning ladies words again. >> that's a two requests to

and her name rhymes with schmidt quiche melee. see steve contorno has the latest on this. so this is like an unlikely pitch coming in. perhaps final weeks of trump's election process. >> that's right john, yesterday, a group of house republicans met with donald trump before his trial including representative ralph norman of south carolina, non-normal was the only member of congress to endorse nikki haley. and he said when he was his turn to talk to trump, he said quotes i did tell him he ought to put nikki on the ballot that would unite the party more than anything. as nikki told me, she said, you know, people can hate me, but they can't hate my voters. and this is coming as nikki haley continues to get a sizable share of the electorate in these primaries long after she has dropped out of the race. but look, there has been little indication that trump is considering haley the two can't even agree how to have a

kumbaya that one side thinks that the other should come to the table first. the other side disagrees. nikki haley herself has yet to even endorse trump, and that's quite different than the overt overtures that we have. seen coming from some of these other republican contenders for the job. take a listen for example, what jd vance, the senator from ohio, told donald trump junior last night on his podcast i want to help me, dad, however i can. and so certainly if he asked me i want to help your my assumption is like this is a little bit of media speculation. maybe it's a little bit real, but he'll make his decision. i'm sure that whoever he picks will be a good vice president and all cross that bridge. if i have to now we have probably two more months of this public auditioning for the job because trump yesterday said, quote, there's a pretty good chance he won't make a decision, or at least announces decision until the convention in milwaukee, which is in mid-july.

>> john all right steve contorno, thank you very much for that, sarah. >> all right. meantime, back in new york, the judge in donald trump's hush money trial signal closing arguments could begin as soon as next week. here discuss now cnn legal analyst and criminal defense attorney joey jackson and criminal defense attorney william brennan, also joining us now, joey first to you. the jury was shown text that michael cohen sent that was brought up trump's attorney, todd blanche read cohen's text about a call to one of donald trump's guards, right? schiller and before the call, he had testified that he had spoken to donald trump about stormy daniel's during this call. and here's what the defense confronted cohen with they said, who can i speak to regarding harassing calls to my cell and office the dope forgot to block his number. that was cohen sending a text message just before the call. blanche says call me blanche says the

texts show that at 8:04 pm, cohen texted schiller the phone number of the teenager prank calling him. blanche used the texts to challenge cohen's account of the call. that was a lie. you did not talk to president trump. you talked to keith schiller. you can admit it. he went after coming no, sir. i don't know. that's accurate. and then he says, i believe i also spoke to donald trump and told him everything regarding the stormy daniels matter. and here's where the gotcha moment potentially comes. we are not asking for your belief. blanche said, this jury does not want to hear what you think happened. was this a knockout punch? to cohen? and all that he has said about donald trump knowing about this transaction wow, sarah, good morning. >> if not a knockout punch, it's certainly put him on the mat, right? and not them down. whether the prosecution good get up is the open question why would generally happens is that when you have adverse information that is information damaging to your case, one, your testimony on direct, sir, there's a time you made a

phone call to the president? yes. tell us about that phone call. what was the nature of the discussion you discuss two things. you discuss a 14-year-old harassing you and you discuss something else in addition to telling the president didn't take you long, did it then you get to the conversation. there was no mention at all with respect to any 14-year-old any harassing anything at all. and so now you have the defense and cross giving that call context talking about the 96 seconds short period of time i'm talking about your preoccupation with this 14 year-old harasser, talking about how that was on your mind, but now all of a sudden this is what you talked about. major disconnect, major problem, big 0.4, the defense, a big point. you said you said, wow, when we started. all right. i want to get her other guests compared to the first day of cross-examination? how do you think cohen actually did this time around good morning, sarah. >> and thanks for having me. i think joey really nailed it. if

it's not an alcohol punch, it's a standing eight count and, you know, there were a lot of critics of the way that mr. blanche began his crossbite crosses a rhythmic operation. if you've you gotta get your pace, get your rhythm i think he's doing a marvelous job and you don't open with your best stuff he had that. i'm sure he's had it for a year and he biden this time time and he let it out at the precise moment it would do the most effective damage not only does it make the prosecution look unprepared, because there's joey said they should have gotten this out first to avoid the shock value. there there's just a cd nature to the other reason for the call. he's fighting with a 14-year-old child, but what's 14? seventh grade, eighth grade. i mean, this guy never heard a call block. it's going to take him to the jury. he wants to take a 14-year-old kid and report him

or her to the secret service blanche has caught mr. cohen in line upon line upon line. now, it's kind of like fishing in a pond that's stocked. >> you're guaranteed to get something with cohen. >> you're going to get lies, but this has really been a strong cross-examination and a strong couple of days phase for the defense. and if the whole case rises and falls on cohen, i don't think 12 people will vote to convict all right. >> what would a prosecutors have to do now that this has sort of been information juries don't really like it when they think you have withheld something because it looks bad. for your case what do they have to do and redirect so they have a couple of options. the first thing is to embrace what i think is to be kind of preposterous, right? there's 96 seconds and you're going to indicate that although you are preoccupied with this 14-year-old, you we're briefing the president the other thing

which i think may be more favorable is to maybe embrace the mistake and then to look at other ways in issues of what she would have informed the president where there are other timeframes in which he spoke to the president? is there other documentary evidence indicating that he was reaching out to the president that those in and of themselves could have been that is there other corroboration to that? this is critical, sarah, because everything else, not everything, but most things, he has said that is michael cohen had been corroborated this critical issue, putting trump not only in the room, but at the table is not. and that's a big deal. >> yeah. and there's been a lot of other evidence that has been presented, but cohen is for lack of a better word, the star witness in this case, linking all things together, william, i just want to ask you quickly what you think of the fact that the jury is now going to spend the next three days, the weekend with this brutal cross-examination in there mind was that a good tactic for the defense absolutely. >> sarah it certainly gives them three days to ruminate on

on what they heard to let this marinate in their minds and there's been some argument. well, the prosecution as three more days as joey said, that's a lot to come back from. i mean, think about the juxtaposition of the reasons for this call. cohen told the jury without any other reason being in their i called to deliver the crucial important news that the daniels matter was resolved. blanche show them he texted on a 14-year-old kid. i mean, it's a big problem to overcome william brennan goe jackson, always a pleasure. >> thank you both. i know we will be back hot and ready to go on monday. thank you looking for hi ready to go visit on monday. >> i'm promise all of you. >> james ears are in serious financial trouble. >> a new report out from the new york fed shows one out of every seven gen z credit card borrowers has maxed out their credit cards and also a lot of

them having a hard time paying them off, seen as matt egan has details on this report and it's not just gen z that has trouble with credit card debt. that's for sure. >> that's definitely right. k this is really a problem across all age groups. americans are now sitting on one trillion of credit card debt. and what's concerning is that a growing number of people they're failing to even make the minimum payments. the new york fed found that serious delinquencies, people who are 90 days late or more, that has climbed to 12-year highs. and there's this direct link between failure to make your payments and maxing out your credit cards. you could see maxing out credit cards. jen zeros 15%, roughly one in seven have maxed out triple the pace of baby boomers. i spoke to a 28 year-old woman from jackson, mississippi who said that she fell into credit card debt in college. she hasn't been able to get out. she's had to delay life events. she's now this stout seven credit cards, $30,000 in credit card debt,

and she's not loan here and part of the problem is interest rates are very high. what we can see here is this chart shows that the number of people who have maxed out their credit cards and fallen behind on their bills. that has really started to spike roughly one in three people who've maxed out our now behind on their bills. now, part of this is high inflation, right? it's very life is very expensive right now housing, food, daycare, it adds up. and unfortunately, some people are turning to credit cards. now the fed solution is interest rates, but we also have a situation where credit card interest rates have almost never been higher. schwa 0.6%. now, experts say there are some solutions. some things you can do. one thing is if you have a lot of credit card debt, you can apply for a 0% balanced transfer that gives you time, perhaps 21 months to pay down your principal without getting hit with high interest that also have a personal loan with lower interest rates the thing. that would be ideal to do is to obviously make more money lower your expenses. that of course,

is easier said than done, kate, i just think this is another reminder that behind those positive national economic indicators, there are troubles here that a lot of people are facing, really highlighting what we talked about, the big national economic indicators isn't how people's personal economy is feeling exactly. this is one of those things. it's great to assume that thank you john, are we got breaking news, a huge development in the world of sports, the world's number one golfer scottie scheffler. >> no one is hotter than him. detained overnight at one of golf's major championships, the pga championship. we've got new reporting on what officials are saying this morning. report in the new york times times overnight that has people talking in some supreme court watchers outrage an american flag flown upside down. the home of samuel alito just days after the riots january 6, how the justices explaining what many see as a symbol of support for the insurrection. and then cnn on the front lines in the path of russian drone owns why some ukrainian say now is the time to evacuate noise in the

the n about confirming it's scheduled since games around, music tours for example, no, miami dolphins home games during taylor swift's three concert at hard rockin' stadium in october, they've also avoided scheduling games the new orleans and indianapolis when swift has concerts in those cities, and nfl official tells cnn it wasn't just swift schedule. they always consider many factors including stadium availability of core when they're making the schedule all right. we have some breaking news to share with you right now. cnn just learning that the world's number one golfer, scottie scheffler, was detained by police earlier this morning while he was heading to a pga championship round in louisville, kentucky. this is all according to espn at this moment get cnn sport's correspondent, karen manna, has a breaking details what do we know about what happened here good morning, sarah. >> well, we're learning a little bit from espn reporter jeff darlington, who seemed to

witnesses firsthand. he said that scottie scheffler was trying to pull into the entrance at fell hala and according to him, didn't realize that the police officer was trying to stop him, so he continued to advance with his car another ten to 20 feet according to darlington scheffler, sayyed didn't realize that it was a police officer that was trying to get his attention and then this escalated were scheffler was brought out of the car, essentially put in handcuffs and ultimately detained by police. geoff darlington said that he heard the officer there say there's nothing you can do about it. he's detained, he's going to jail. it seems at this point like it was something of a misunderstanding. espn's also reporting that scottie scheffler wasn't combative, didn't raise his voice. it seemed like he just didn't realize what essentially was going on when he was being asked to do. but this is separate from from a different report that's coming out now, the pga tour only saying that the start of the second round has been delayed because of a serious accident that occurred near the golf course. and we're starting to learn a little bit

more about what that might be. there are reports that that was a fatality that occurred near valhalla police are still sorting through. we don't have confirmed details on that, so we'll wait for further reporting and confirmation from the pga, but two separate incidents and scottie scheffler. scheffler ultimately involved in and being detained by police wow. i'm just assume i just want to make clear the one we don't have any information, the one incident has anything to do with the the other correct correct. >> correct. they are two completely separate incidents. scottie scheffler did not have anything to do with why the pga tour's ultimately decided to hold off on the start of the second round. >> all right. carolyn, man. thank you so much. john all right. donald trump is set to appear today at a republican fundraiser in minnesota, even though he vowed never to return to that state if he lost it in 2020, which he did. in fact, he lost to twice the democratic governor of minnesota, tim waltz is with us now. governor. thank you so much for being with us. i imagine you're

always happy to get visitors from the outside. how do you feel about donald trump visiting today well, yeah. >> you said at his keys coming back for a hat trick or the were the state of hockey lost it and 16 lost in 20, you lose it and 24. luck. i was hoping the one thing he kept his word onwards. he said he wouldn't come back, but you come out here and hello he'll use his list of grievances and he gave an unhinged interview yesterday where he said he actually won minnesota in 2020. we all know he lost by over seven points, so nothing new here. we're just going to go about finishing our legislative session. thanks. for joe biden. we're going to be feeding kids this summer. we're gonna be doing infrastructure projects and just getting on with the things and assault and want us to when you were named that the head of the republican governance associate, sorry, democratic national governors association, excuse me. i'll get it right. patrick, as you say, you said one of the things you want to see is you want to see democrats be bold what is it from president biden that you want to see what kind of

boldness would you like to see from him on the campaign trail yeah. >> well, he's doing it, i think when president biden comes here, he delivers $1 billion for a bridge and duluth, minnesota, just this week we announced half $1 billion in high-tech chip manufacturing being bold means leaning into this, making sure we're protecting reproductive rights. and i think this week calling this bluff that yeah, i'll debate you because i've got a record president biden does of actually delivering, getting us out of covid look, we were here when donald trump was telling people to drink bleach. we're home at the mayo clinic, we believe in science. so i just think he just get out there, lean into these things, things that improve people's lives and talk about the record. >> there's a trial going on here in manhattan. i don't know if you've been paying attention and criminal case against donald trump. and a lot of court watchers think it went well for donald trump yesterday. what do you think would happen if he is acquitted on the charges here? how might that impact the campaign oh, i don't know. >> this guy is not, doesn't live a normal life minnesota and are engaged, were decent

people at heart. republicans know he lost minnesota and look, this guy is what leaving his trial and stopping by his son's graduation, then coming out to raise money in minnesota, which i hope republicans here, no, none of its staying in minnesota. there's no ground game here. there's nothing we take this very seriously. we know this election will be closed and we're doing the work. i think it doesn't matter. i've said all along, we need to beat this guy at the ballot box. we need to return our democracy to a sense of normalcy. we're things matter, rule of law matters. so i have to tell you, i'm john, i'm not watching that thing that closely. i think it's stunning to me that that we're even in this point. but i think we need to keep our eye on the ball. we need to stay in our lane and we need to prepare to win in november can i ask you about a question about a report in the new york times overnight that we all woke up to the new york times, posted photographs of a flag flying upside down at the home of supreme court justice samuel alito. >> this was just days after the riots on january 6, or some people call the insurrection

just days before the inauguration of president biden and a lot of people's see the upside-down flag as a symbol of support for the insurrection, or a symbol that said we don't accept the results of the 2020 election. and this was a samuel alito is house just days after that. now, alito put out a statement where he said i had no involvement whatsoever in flying of the flag. this was a statement emailed to the times. he says it was briefly placed by mrs. alito in response to a neighbor's use of objectionable and personally insulting language on yard signs. we did reach out to the supreme court. i should know and didn't get no response from the supreme court on this overnight. just what's your take on this? and i will note that alito is deciding a case that deals a little bit with donald trump's actions around january well, it certainly concerning what, once again, look, how weird this stuff is. let me just say that my wife has never had to explain why she flew a flag upside down at my house. i mean, this is not normal stock and not surprising

whether it's, you know, ginni thomas and others involved in this look, this is a this, is a concerning time. this is a supreme court justice having to explain why a symbol of an election that was fair and open and free. and the most secure we've ever had one by joe biden overwhelmingly, that he would somehow have a problem with that. this stuff's not normal and this is i come back to again, this is why we need to do do our work. we need to focus, we need to reelect joe biden, and we need to get this country doing the things americans want us to do. this is just insanity i, i'm just stunned that we would ever have had to have a supreme court justice explain why his wife was flying a flag upside down in response to an a you said some people call it an insurrection. it wasn't insurrection. we know exactly what happened to 150 police officers injured by people trying to overthrow the peaceful transition of power. and i think we should all be prepared if donald trump saying he one minnesota in 2020 he is going to say no matter what happened since that, he won in

2024, that will not stay on in minnesota. we will we will stand for democracy, will stand for our elections. >> minnesota governor tim waltz, i appreciate you being with us this morning. i know you've a big game seven and coming up with timberwolves, good luck. >> go wolves thanks, john always end up with a good sports reference. this morning, ukraine's president zelenskyy is squarely blaming a lack of adequate air defenses for the reason russian forces were able to cross the border into the kharkiv region and that surprise attack last weekend and civilians in the region are still trying desperately to flee as the fighting gets closer and closer to their homes. >> but are nick peyton walsh and his team saw firsthand just how dangerous findings, safeties become there when nightmares recur, they're often the same here. >> they get worse. the border town of vovchansk bearing the blunt horror of moscow's race to take as much as they can in the weeks before ukraine starts feeling american military help

again every street of flame russians, deeper inside the town policeman maxime is answering one of 35 calls from locals on thursday to evacuate the day before three colleagues were injured the shelling never stops supercilious three people still come out. >> and you have to imagine quite how desperate these final people situation must be to leave nikola and his wife hiding in their basement, but despite staying through the first russian occupation and then liberation two years ago, they found the airstrikes last night just too much they are joined by maria, their mother, who can't hear the shelling or anything too well thousands evacuated since russia invaded.

again around here five days ago why everyone has to leave, it's clear again as we drive out, as it is with almost every part of ukraine, russia, cupboards, just utter destruction. we had back in with another police unit who soon learned two of the houses they must rescue from a impossible to reach as we wait but and'm they hear a buzzing noise they think they, can hear a drone here so hard to tell with the wind in the trees and artillery, but that's a constant threat. call them now, then our security advisors spots it. they raised their weapons about will firing make them more of a target? i think three drones, one large one that hovers, and two small ones whizzing about exposed, powerless. if we run for cover, they might come for us all we
