thanks for joining us. the newest continues now, right here on cnn happening now, donald trump has out there on the campaign trail this hour, as republicans are increasingly closing ranks around own him including his onetime bitter opponent turns supporter, nikki haley. >> we're breaking down new shows of gop deference to trump as the campaign and his criminal trial are entering new phases. also, this our partisan sparring over us supreme court justice samuel alito, and whether he's crossed ethical leinz amid growing controversy over politically provocative flags flown at his homes and a powerful message about abuse from the former girlfriend of repre sean diddy combs, cassie ventura speaking out for the first time since cnn exclusively obtained a 2016 video of her being physically assaulted by combs welcome to our viewers here in the united states and around the world. i

will blitzer a urine the situation room in new york tonight, donald trump is trying to cut into president biden support in a democratic stronghold more top republicans are due to flee falling in line behind the former president cnn's kristen holmes, reporting from the bronx, the campaign rally in the bronx for trump is about to speak this hour donald trump campaigning tonight. and one of the blues counties in the country, just a few miles from where a jury will start to wait his fate in the criminal hush money trial next week the south prompts to go rally at the former president tries to build support with black and hispanic voters recent polls showing him making gains with key blocks of president joe biden's coalition four years ago, biden, one bronx county by nearly 68 points. >> i'm confident that the bronx is going to overwhelmingly reject donald trump based on the polling data that i've seen

among likely voters in the bronx, donald trump is so unpopular, s3 radioactive. he's even less popular than arsenic in the bronx, despite new york strong democratic lean, trump insists he can put the empire state in play this november i love the people understand i'm running hard and new york, i think we're going to win new york, something he claimed during his first run-in 2016, i think we're going to win new york and again, in 2020, we're going for new york. >> we got to losing the state both times by more than 20 points thank you. >> and god bless you all know republican nominee is carried new york since ronald reagan in 1984 the bronk stop comes as the republican party continues to coalesce around, trump after a bitterly fought primary campaign against nikki haley, the former south carolina governor, gave trump up boost wednesday, saying she would support him november trump has not been perfect on these policies. >> i made that clear many, many times but biden has been a

catastrophe so i will be voting for trump. per ton about coming after closing her campaign, warning about trump's impact on the gop, how much more losing do we have to do before we realize maybe donald trump is the problem? another trump rival, ted cruz, refusing to say if you would accept the 2024 election results during an interview with cnn's kaitlan collins, free and fair election, will you accept the results regardless of who wins? >> look, if the democrats, when i will accept the result, but i'm not going to ignore fraud or whatever 20 of course, there were was fraud. >> it's a message being put forward by several top republicans, including those vying to be trump's running mate. will you commit to accepting the election results of 2024? bottom line? >> at the end of the day, the 47th president united states movie for president donald trump. and i'm excited to get back to low inflation, low unemployment senator, yes or no? yes or no. will you accept

the election results of 2024, no matter who wins? >> that is my statement and will protect you a number of residents here in the bronx, them attending this rally, others not other than credit donald trump, but even show up in the bronx. >> but i speak to a number of april. >> he said that they voted for biden 2020, but that they were looking for other options and they were angeles in what donald trump had to say. obviously, donald trump is a household name, particularly in new york, being born and raised in new york, a lot of excitement for him here at this location today kristen holmes reporting from that trump rally in the bronx, we'll get back to you. >> thank you very much. chris, did i want to bring and see you in an anchor, kaitlan collins right now to discuss or sometimes pretty heated interview with senator ted cruz, caitlin, you're really pressed. senator cruz and accepting the election results, did you ever get an answer? >> well, he didn't say yes and no, yes or no to that answer. i think he would argue that that he did try to answer that question is as he did is we went on for several minutes

about this in perspective here in the context that's important and crucial to note wolf as you know, is that senator ted cruz was the first senator to object to the certification of the votes i believe the state that he was was arizona that we know there were objections to multiple states is that day played out on january 6. and so this is a key issue because it's kind of become this question. that has become, for some reason increasingly difficult for republicans to answer just a yes or no question. marco rubio, tim scott, you saw those are vice presidential hopefuls? of course. and so i really wanted to take the time in our sit down last night with senator ted cruz on the show to ask him about what he plans to do in 2024. i want to show you a little bit more of that exchange. wolf only ask republicans that you look into tried to block the transition of power. >> you have to acknowledge that we've never seen it on a scale of what happened in 2020. >> and we've never seen the

president refused. he wouldn't even let joe biden get classified briefings at the beginning. i recall that. so let me question for you again free and fair election. will you accept the results regardless of who wins look, if the democrats, when i will accept the result, but i'm not going to ignore fraud but was or what have you 20 of course there was fraud, no, that wasn't. and you still objected? >> and wolf, after that moment, senator ted cruz said that the idea that there were zero fraud in the 2020 election is not feasible. >> the of course what's important here are the crux of this is there was no material fraud, nothing that would change the outcome of that election, and that is something that was attested to by multiple republican governors, the attorney general, bill barr, dozens of courts, even the supreme court, rejected this idea that trump had been cheated out of power. and of course, the danger here is that there are a wide, there's a wide swath of the electorate that does believe the election was stolen because they were told not only by donald trump, but also by multiple republicans at that time. that,

there was reason to doubt the election, even though we heard from multiple officials that there wasn't, but i do think this is a notable trend wolf because it's not just happening among people who want to be vice president to donald trump. if he wins the election or want to be in his cabinet, we're also seeing it among other us lawmakers who won't outright say that if it is a free and fair elections that they will accept the 2024 results. and of course, wolf, as we saw in 2020, it's an important question to ask. >> very important and deed excellent interview with senator cruz, caitlin, thank you very much kaitlan. of course, we will be back later tonight, 9:00 p.m. eastern to anchor her show. the source and it will of course be watching let's break all this down with our political commentators right now. i'll start with kristin self to sanderson, senator cruz is the latest high-profile republican refusing to say that he will accept the results of the 2024 election flat-out question, what what does that say about the gop right now? >> right now, a lot of republican prominent leaders

are angling either to be vice president or they'd like to have a lot of influence in a trump administration zoo for them, they feel that that is a trap question. they feel that it is unfair that republicans are asked if you heard senator cruz just say that for them, the way that they sort of deal with this is they say there was a little bit of fraud here, a little bit of fraud there. >> we don't really know they tried to dance around it because they know that for very many republican voters, they do feel that donald trump was cheated out of the election, and whether they mean that in terms of fraud or they feel like simply he was treated unfairly. >> a vague concept it's a very prominent belief among republican voters certainly is se cap officially trump is campaigning in the bronx right now to try and court black and latino voters, as you know, new york is not necessarily a battleground state. it's very democratic. so what do you think is going on here? >> yeah well, it's historically very democratic and probably still will go for

biden however, joe biden beat donald trump in 2020 by 23 points that margin has slipped significantly. >> he's now according to the most recent poll and santa college only beating donald trump by nine points in new york. that's a red flag. >> if i'm on biden's campaign staff to look at a state that should not slip away from a democratic president and should definitely not be he this close. >> so maybe donald trump sees those numbers. he sees african american and hispanic voters in some numbers leaving joe biden and sees an opening. and i think what's been impressive about the trump campaign is they don't seem to be taking any voters for granted. i'm not sure i'd say the same of the biden campaign pain. he didn't go to new hampshire, for example, during the democratic primary. so i don't think trump is wrong to hold some rallies here ashley allison is with us as well. >> ashley, the biden camp eye

sees that the threat posed by trump improving his numbers with minorities, especially black voters and. release. this is the biden campaign. they released this ad just ahead of trump's speech tonight. watch this donald trump disrespecting black focus, nothing new. >> he was sued for reducing to rena's apartments two black families, and called for the execution of five and it's in black and brown teenagers, and it's more than angle. it's hatred, it's why trump stood wood violent white supremacists warned of a bloodbath if he loses the next election, and if he's president again vowel to be a dictator who once we binge on his enemies now, who do you think that is? >> of course, i hate these people so actually this is is this the right message for the biden campaign with black voters? well, it's the truthful message. these things that the biden campaign put in this ad is actually stuff, but donald trump has done and has promised to do if he is reelected. and i think it's important that the biden campaign remind voters of how

trump behave when he was in president and some of the things that people weren't might not i don't know whether people might not have always known that donald trump discriminated around housing policy, but it's important to inform voters of that. this is not something new, this is, he has a track record of discriminatory hateful language, and so it did not just happen when he said there was very good people on both sides der in charlottesville, it happened around the exonerated five. it happened during his discriminatory discriminatory housing practices. and i think it's important for the biden campaign at remind voters, but i also think then you also have the biden campaign have to tell voters why you are the other best alternative. and i think they're also going to be started doing that whether this talking about their economic policies, their house nothing policies, opportunities for students as well. >> yeah, i'm sure they're going to be doing that. i see the trump campaign issued this response to that biden ad that was just released, writing and part and we put it up on the screen. biden's policies are driving black families deeper

into poverty and making them less safe. black voters like all americans, are worse soft now than they were under president trump. and every poll reflects that reality. so eci, what do you think well, it's laughable to imagine trump telling black voters, you know, what they, what they need and what their lives are like but on the other hand, i'm not sure a campaign ad by biden pointing out something that i've been 40 years ago, for example, is really what's going to motivate this group or any group of people to the polls they want to know what policies are going to make their lives better. >> and if you want to point at donald trump and tell, tell voters it's what policies made their lives worse. do that. >> it's not necessarily what he did 40 years ago again, in terms of housing discrimination, although that was awful, i would be connecting the dots a bit, a bit more to ashley's letter point? yeah, good point at

christian, are you ever new article in the new york times about the enduring power of trump's celebrity. you write this and i'm quoting from your article right now, it is a mistake to forget that mr. trump is a celebrity first and a politician second, nearly a decade later, he is still affected by the same political laws of gravity that govern nearly every other political figure, including his republican i can imitators and impostors so how does the biden team get voters to see him as a politician? not necessarily simply as a celebrity well, that may well happen as we approach november. of course, in 2020 when donald trump was the incumbent president, he was not protected by the shield of celebrity. >> voters, had a very clear picture of whether they liked his presidency or not. many of them did not. and that's why we've got joe biden in office but now joe biden has been the president. he's responsible for the way people are feeling as trump's presidency has receded into the past, people

are starting to think of a more and more as that guy from the apprentice, the person that they've seen on tv, a lot but he's been off the trail and in the courtroom. and oddly enough, i think that's why we have not seen his numbers go down. people are thinking of him back in celebrity mode, not politician mode. and that's a very good place for donald trump to be important point, guys. thank you very, very much. just ahead, new and growing fallout around the us supreme court justice samuel alito. why a second flag is becoming a big red flag? bag for his critics plus the ex girlfriend of sean diddy combs responding for the first time today to that exclusive cnn report cassie ventura speaking out about the surveillance video that shows her being physically assaulted by what a music's biggest stars the nba playoffs who he's going to emotional you more concerned about what's going on inside the nba and what's going on inside of you, you know, doc, you're right? >> and that's all the time we have. thanks for watching. are

called now 80071 zeroes zero, 0020 we have breaking news coming into the situation room, the fulton county district attorney, fani willis is appealing a judge's decision to dismiss six counts of the election interference indictment against donald trump and several of his co-defendants. let's discuss with our senior justice, birth been and evan perez and our legal analysts analyst elliot williams evan walk us through this appeal. what's going on here well, we'll finally what's the district attorney there in fulton county is asking the georgia appeals court to take a look at this at this decision by judge scott mcafee in which he tossed six of those 41 counts in that for you in that 41 count the racketeering case that was filed there in fulton county. >> now, what she's asking for here is rehearing on that issue since the appeals court is already taking up another issue which is mcafee is decision to

keep her on the case. if you remember the former president, donald trump and others were we're seeking to get her removed from the case. and so that now that issue is now before the appeals court. and what the district attorney is now doing is having this issue also being taken a look at by the appeals court. of course what this means, is that this case is going to suffer some more delays given the fact that now the appeals court is going to hear a series of these issues important point, elliot williams, why is fani willis, first of all, filing this appeal? and is it likely to be successful while she has to file it now now, we'll just so it's clear that there isn't an appeals free for all. >> let's explain how it works briefly. the prosecution can only appeal an issue until what's called jeopardy the attaches, you've you've heard the term double jeopardy. can only appeal until a jury is seated now, if there's a ruling that the prosecutors don't like, they can they can appeal it at this early point in the

proceedings. here, a few of the charges that they'd brought that they thought they have the evidence forgot, dismissed by the court and they have every right to bring those up to the appeals court. and raise, that and raised them their now it's hard to know what the appeals court will ultimately do with this wolf. these were one of the criticisms of this case is it was, it was complicated. there are dozens of defendants and some pretty complicated racketeering charges. so it's hard to know what the appeals court will do but the evan's point, this will slow things down. on, but to be clear, this was not a trial that case that was racing to trial to begin with, it's just going to be a further delay here. >> elliot, how much is it actually matter to the overall case whether these six counts are included or not? >> well, it may matters a great deal to prosecutors. prosecutors only proceed with charges when they believe they have the evidence, when they've gone to a grand jury and here there was i believe, a special grand jury first and then a full grand jury reviewed them afterward when they believe they have what's called a readily provable offense that they had the evidence for these

charges and thought that they could support them. so it is look, i've had things tossed out on appeal. it's not are tossed out by a judge. it's not a good feeling when it happens because they thought they had the evidence and so certainly that's wider proceeding. and they think they have a legitimate claim to appealing let me get back to you as far as the new york hush money, criminal trial is concerned, the jury instructions from the judge could of course be a key factor in what the ultimate verdict in this case will be. >> what can you tell us about this development? >> well, if i may look at the jury instruction is going to be key because obviously when the jurors go in there, they're going to now be instructed by the by the judge how to look at all that evidence that they've heard over the last few weeks, how to look at that evidence and decide what to believe and obviously, the big the big witness that everybody is focused on is michael cohen and

the instructions will tell them how to take a look at the things that they heard, not only from michael cohen, but also from the documents that prosecutors say underpins the case that they've brought, it's very, very important what what what the jury goes forward with as a result of this. >> and elliott closing arguments are now set to begin on tuesday however the prosecutors and the defense team for that matter likely to approach this it's a very important part of the trial. what they what they'll do i think about their theory of the case summit up in a sentence or two and then build a several our speech around that. that doesn't put the jury to sleep. what they have to do as number one, repeat the points that they want to put on the record. number to refute what the other side said, and then number three and on saying this is actually how sicer pro structured his arguments, that number three, returned to your argument at the end and say,

and this is why ladies and gentlemen, you ought to convict or quit the defendant. and so it's it's there's a lot of science that goes into it in really thinking about how to structure these hours of words in a way that are dying adjustable to people who are not attorneys, but also make your legal case most persuasion persuasive and compelling to them. >> i'm sure both sides will be working all weekend, getting their arguments ready. elliot williams, evan perez, guys. thank you very much coming up. cassie ventura speaking out for the first time addressing that 2016 video tamed by cnn, showing her being assaulted by her then boyfriend, sean diddy combs in one of the most two 2202 seasons. you can't control a tornado or what kinds of interventions can we design go inside the store premiere of violent earth with leah i'm schreiber, june 2 at nine on cnn. >> everybody wants super

>> and this is cnn the former girlfriend of sean diddy combs is speaking out for the first time about are 2016 video showing her being physically assaulted by the rap star cassie ventura as public comments coming just days after cnn exclusively obtained the graphic surveillance footage cnn's elizabeth wagmeister broke the story and has this follow up on venture as reaction. >> we want to warn our viewers some of the images in a report are disturbing cassie ventura breaking her silence for the first time since cnn uncovered this disturbing video showing music mogul sean diddy combs violently throwing her to the ground, then kicking and dragging her on instagram, ventura thinking family, friends, and strangers, writing the outpouring of love has created a place for my younger self to settle and feel safe now. >> but this is only the

beginning. my only ask is that everyone open your heart to believing victims the first time this surveillance video from 2016 also shows combs throwing a vase at then-girlfriend ventura in the hallway of los angeles hotel. the security camera footage seeming to corroborate part of ventura's 2023 lawsuit against diddy alleging he punched ms ventura, giving her a black eye then took glass vases in the hallway and threw them at her. the lawsuits since-settled also reference this. >> i gotta give a special thank you. >> a 2022 acceptance speech in which combs spoke of cassie and a much different light. >> cassie, for holding me down in a dark times but now with the ugly truth of his abuse caught on video, did he took to his own social media sunday to respond? i mean, i hit rock bottom i make no excuses. my behavior on that video excusable i take full

responsibility for my actions in that video. >> the allegations continue to pile up against combs this week, former model crystal mckinney, filed a lawsuit alleging combs drugged, and sexually assaulted her in 2003, and comb still faces possible charges related to those federal raids on his home's in march, the la county district attorney says the hotel video from 2016 won't lead to new charges because the statute of limitations expired. >> cassie didn't address the video directly, but did say domestic violence is the issue. it broke me down to someone i never thought i would become advocates say cases like cassius are helping to turn the tide for victims of abuse. >> it means that people who are too scared, they were too young. they felt that they'd be disbelieved long ago. but whose lives were altered? >> now have an ability to come forward and seek legal redress. cassie, speaking directly to those victims, writing, i offer

my hand to those that are still living in fear. no one should carry this weight alone now, when cassie filed her lawsuit back in november, it was filed under what is called the new york adult survivors act. that is a law that created a look back window for victims of abuse who alleged incidents happened outside of the statute of limitations now, wolf, since this 2016 video, is outside the statute of limitations, the da and los angeles has said that they cannot press charges, so it has created this entire conversation of whether that statute of limitations is benefiting the abuser or the victim. now, i also want to note lastly, that you may have known otis that neither cassie or diddy mentioned each other in their respective statements about this video, while wolf, that's because in their settlement agreement, i have learned from sources, they cannot speak about one another.

>> interesting, thanks very much. elizabeth wagmeister in los angeles for the excellent reporting. i want to get some more all of this with cnn entertainment reporter lisa respers, frehse, attorney and legal affairs commentator, or riva martin and lisa, what do you make of first of all, of this first statement from cassie since the release of that horrible, horrible, awful video. >> i can tell you that she's being hailed by many people for speaking on domestic violence, but also because she really speaks, it seems like from the heart when people juxtapose her statement with diddy's apology from a couple of days ago, they're seeing a decided difference. it feels like she really wants to be you have service. as elizabeth mentioned, she reaches out to those who are already in a similar situation, and i just feel like a lot of people feel for her, but also they're happy that she's speaking up. it should not take a video having to see a video of someone being

abused to believe the abuse river. >> cassie doesn't directly reference the brutal video of combs attacking her in that hotel but it is a very powerful statement addressing domestic violence as an important issue. so what's your reaction? >> well, one, just kudos to her bravo to her for having the courage to speak up after having to be triggered. i'm sure when to relive the horrors of that video. it was horrible for us to watch it, but she was the person that actually experienced the abuse from pdd for not just in that at one incident, but from what we know from that lawsuit repeated course of abuse that she received. >> and i think what's important about her statement also is hopefully it will encourage states that have opened up their statute of limitations for civil suits for victims of this kind of violence. >> also to look at those criminal statutes, the district attorney pretty los angeles said there will be no criminal charges despite us witnessing

what is criminal conduct on that video. so as we are opening up these statues for civil suits and money is good, but criminal conduct needs to be held accountable in criminal court. so i hope we start to see some extension of statues in states so that victims like cassie and others can have their day in court and can get justice and predators like did he will be held criminally accountable. >> lisa, as more disturbing allegations against combs have been coming to light, it seems to have given strength to other accusers to come forward what does this say about the changing culture and the responsibility of the entertainment community right now, well, wolf oftentimes when these things happen, people initially want to say, oh, you know, she's lying. >> she just wants money. and this is why it's so important for people like kasey to come forward because it's it allows people to be able to see that when you have money and you have power, it can insulate you from things like this. you

know, i've said this before that i'd heard rumors about bad behavior from duty for years, but people did not come forward because they were afraid she was empowered to do so. she filed her suit and the the response that we're seeing, even though there are still some people who are saying, oh, maybe we don't know the whole story. i think overwhelmingly people supporting her is starting to shift the tide, which says that just because you're a man of power, just because you're a person of power, a person who's wealthy does not mean that you should be able to get away with things like this. so i think we're definitely seeing a bit of a shift in in the culture or riva combs is facing multiple lawsuits, federal agents, as you know, recently raided his homes in california and florida what is this accountability look like for diddy from a legal standpoint? >> what we know as i just said, would not likely to be any charges filed by hidden by the los angeles county district attorney, but that homeland security raid that's pretty significant to have federal

agents re not one, but two of your homes and stop unit airport and to confiscate items from your person he's that there is an active investigation or at least there was one when those rays took place. and we may still see did he held accountable in a federal court because those human trafficking, sex trafficking allegations that are in some of those civil losses we've been told that they are what the federal investigators are actually looking that as they are investigating his conduct. so it is not clear to me at all that he is out of legal jeopardy as it relates to some kind of criminal accountability. so i think this is a case, it's going to continue to perhaps lead to the kind of charges that i think are important and required given the conduct that we saw in that video. >> remember martin lisa respers frehse, both of you. thank you very much. and to our viewers, if you or someone you know, is struggling with domestic violence, you can get help by contacting the national domestic violence hotline
