11:01 am
atlanta. >> this is cnn cnn breaking news hello again, everyone. >> thank you so much for joining me this saturday on for that, the width hailed and we begin with dramatic video of the moment, a russian strike hit a shopping center in kharkiv, ukraine's second largest city these two people were killed and dozens more injured in the attack two more strikes in other parts of kharkiv followed the initial hit. cnn nick kate walsh is eastern ukraine. >> nick russia has been on the offensive in kharkiv is this stepping up of their attack yeah. look, i mean, this could have been potentially the worst
11:02 am
civilian casualties we've seen since russia's offensive about two weeks ago now from the north of kharkiv, from their border areas down to ukraine's second city at the moment, the death toll vote is for, has been rising. we could have as many as 40 injured in this one attack on a huge hardware store complex in an area in the northern areas of kharkiv. we've been there ourselves, a chain store across all of ukraine so much fire burning, frankly, because of the paints, because of the heart but waste or elements you would expect to find there and clearly know reticence at all from russia's air force to hit this with what ukrainian officials saying were to glided bombs to airstrikes, right in the middle of a saturday afternoon after that, another airstrike hitting kharkiv, nobody injured there officials say, and a third in which we're hearing about 11 people being injured separately and earlier on that morning in the middle of the night, another airstrike at 2:00 a.m. so a. sign, i think that russia
11:03 am
is beginning to focus its efforts on kharkiv. we've known that they'd be militarily trying to advance towards it. and the fear has always been that they might get close enough to start using their artillery against that city of over 1 million people. it is clear this afternoon and they haven't got within that sort of range, but there are still able to use the gliders, guiding bombs that their aircraft launch from russia to significant effect. president volodymyr zelenskyy he pointing out clearly that there were 200 people. he says inside that complex when this explosion happened, is clear. a significant amount of that got out and are safe, but the number of injured keep rising as does the clarity here of quite what russia is prepared to do. their military defense saying they hit a military warehouse where the pictures emerging from there some just showing women pushing their children pass the burning wreckage of this hardware complex really showing how
11:04 am
civilian indeed this was as so many targets inside ukraine hit by russia. >> yeah, horrible and then what about the us military supplies have they arrived yet we don't have full transparency over exactly when the supplies begin to get into the hands of ukrainian troops on the front line. >> and it's quite clear from how the flavor the nature of ukrainian losses on the battlefield simply have not improved over the past weeks that they're not arriving in an adequate way to change the dynamics of the conflict. >> president volodymyr zelenskyy suggested that they are now in what he called combat control over the areas in the north from kharkiv, where russia owns its most recent invasion, its most recent offensive. >> it's unclear what that really means. there are clearly are areas in that most recent russian push that ukraine still fills under huge pressure. and
11:05 am
there are other france indeed here in the eastern parts of ukraine where russia is also seeing success two. so i think many have seen this moment now as russia's best chance to capitalize upon the ammunition shortages, the equipment shortages, even the personnel shortages that ukraine has been experiencing. and then the personnel sense will continue to experience in the months ahead. so russia is seizing that, seeing some success and the rating it's really on for us munitions start arriving in russian hands in such a meaningful way that they can actually change the course of the bath or phil, because being no mistake right now, the scenes in kharkiv are potentially a premonition of how bad it could get in ukraine's second city of russian gets close enough and also how bad things could begin to tear great or across its eastern front line. unless us and nato weaponry starts really making a difference, it isn't at the moment. >> yeah. >> all right. nick paton walsh in eastern ukraine. thanks so much.
11:06 am
>> so as, russia steps up, the war in ukraine, russian president vladimir putin is expanding a purge of high ranking military officials and shaking up its ranks. >> cnn's bryan todd has more as he swagger it in the presidential palace of his top ally in belarus and crowed about deployment of tactical nuclear weapons in that country. >> the former kgb colonel ruthlessly pressed on with a purge of his top military brass at home to top russian military officials just arrested as vladimir putin's purported campaign to stamp out corruption continues. >> i think it's definitely the biggest military shakeup that we've seen in moscow since the start of the war that we're aware of. >> one of those arrested lieutenant general vadim shomron, a top communications officer in the russian army. he's accused of taking large scale bribes. russian state media reported what's that despite having an annual salary in 2018 of about 32,000 american dollars, sharon's wife in 2022, bought a mercedes
11:07 am
worth over $200,000 analysts say, not unusual in a military rife with corruption. >> i the russian military is known for padding contracts they will write a big contract and take a cut. this kind of ramping corruption is normal and again is the higher you go, the more rampant it is. >> with these latest arrest, five top russian military officials have been arrested in the past couple of months at least four have denied wrong doing earlier this month, putin pushed out his longtime defense minister and close ally, sergey shoigu and replaced him with an economist this all comes as russian forces have made recent gains on the battlefield in ukraine are still grinding war that putin has ramped up spending for russia is moving toward war economy and it's true 7% of their gdp now is focused on defense. >> there on a war footing but some analysts believe there's more going on inside the kremlin than putin trying to
11:08 am
clean up his defense spending. i mean, it really feels to me like a soviet style purge. he's probably done some forensics since the march on moscow last summer number by by you have ghani prigozhin, yevgeny prigozhin, the wagner mercenary chief who led a short-lived rebellion against the kremlin last year. after viciously and very publicly accusing shoigu and the chief of the general staff, valery gerasimov, of not supporting wagner militants on the battlefield. once doing that while strolling among the dead bodies of his mercenaries prigozhin later died in mysterious plane crash analysts say putin could now be sorting out who's really loyal to him and sending a message to the russian people allows putin to say to his domestic audience, yeah, cleaning shop here. and we're going to be in this for awhile. >> experts say it's possible that more purchase could be coming from vladimir putin and that the powerful chief of the general staff, valery gerasimov, might need to look
11:09 am
over his shoulder. although one analyst points out, gerasimov is that the top? of the military pyramid and putin might need to tread carefully with him. bryan todd cnn, washington and american man detained in turks and caicos on ammunition charges is now home today last night bryan hagerich stepped off and escalator at the pittsburgh international airport right into the arms of his children right there he tells cnn affiliate wtae that he has absolutely elated to be back with his kids, the father of two was given a suspended sentence of 52 weeks and was allowed to fly home after paying $6,700 in fines cnn's rafael romo joining me right now with more and all this. so hagerich, he was headed home in february after vacationing. there were this family ammo found in his luggage and then he was looking at a serious jail sentence. >> and what a horrible way to end a vacation has been a tremendous or deal for him his
11:10 am
family and his will do seems to be over now, fred, but there are several other americans facing the same charge whose fates are still undecided bryan hagerich is now describing his and voluntary stay of more than three months in turks and caicos as the hardest time of his life, the american from pennsylvania return home last night after spending and the more than 100 days in the british overseas territory where he was charged with possession of ammunition. this is a moment he reunited with his children just a very beautiful moment there, heydrich was facing us. a 12 year sentence after pleading guilty to a charge of possession of ammunition, he was able to return home after getting a suspended 52 week sentence. in $6,700 fine according to his representatives, he expressed great relief and gratitude after landing last night in pittsburgh just so much joy,
11:11 am
it's just amazing how just in a matter of 12 hours my life has just it's been a complete one at looking at 12 years to now, my biggest concern is coaching my kid's baseball games tomorrow on that is such a relief just to be clear in turks and caicos, possession of firearms or ammunition carries a minimum minimum 12 year sentence, though according to the local governor, the law allows reduced sentences under exceptional circumstances. stances, hagerich is not the only american arrested under similar circumstances for for others have been released on bail while they await their court dates in turks and caicos. but one of them was allowed to return to the us for medical reasons. an american delegation, including pennsylvania senator john fetterman, a democrat, then congressman guy reschenthaler, his republican colleague from the same state, worked together to secure hagerich. hagerich just release got to remember
11:12 am
there's still three americans that are wrongfully detained on that island and that you're coney and lies still complaints, so we need to warn other americans about the dangers of going into turks and caicos. >> and we need to work relentlessly to bring the other three americans home. >> and finally, fred, a turks and caicos officials say us citizens are not being targeted. the turks and caicos premier told cnn that out of the 195 people sentenced it's were firearm-related offenses over the past six years, only seven were us citizens and no american has received the full 12 year sentence to date. but again, it makes you think if you want to go there yeah. >> just one bullet, two bullets can really get to in a lot of troll on any mistakes. because at 12 year minimum, what you're facing, i mean, that's that's pretty alarming and it's ripening. all right. rafael rama. thank you all right summers. >> kick weekend could turn into a washout as storms threaten millions the assignments are

11:18 am
month, just an excessive risk of severe weather. >> again, this is a level four out of five moderate risk there in the red from which a todd down to oklahoma city. and this is the area that we're really worried about. >> strong long lived, violent tornadoes possible as we go into the evening and even possibly overnight hours could also find baseball size hail and some damaging wind gusts as well. >> no what is the risk though, does spread through the deep south over towards atlanta and savannah. and there's another little area of a marginal risk up near pittsburgh. so things to watch out for, but definitely the highest most violent threat will be from kansas down into oklahoma, where we're looking at ef2 tornadoes or greater possible again not just a tornado risk can put at risk for strong along lid tornadoes as we go through the evening and overnight and it's coming in a year that's been already so active. we've already had more than 900 reports of tornadoes since january 1st average to date would be closer to 700. so it's been incredibly active. >> here's a look at radar right now, still not finding
11:19 am
anything in the plane means we need the atmosphere to cook heat and humidity of the day to fuel those storms. >> we do have some storms though across the southeast where a new severe thunderstorm watch has been issued as we go through the year afternoon just south of atlanta from making down to the florida state line. that's where we've had some severe thunderstorm warnings and effect already this afternoon, the storms that you can see them blowing up in the plains, you see all these little discrete cells that's what could be the violent long live tornadoes. and notice the timestamp, 10:00 at night. so as we go into the night, make sure you have your emergency words turned on loud. >> because again, violent tornadoes at night is just not a good recipe. >> then we have the damaging wind threat progresses through missouri's. we go into tomorrow morning and then through the ohio valley due tomorrow afternoon. we're not done yet. the setup multiple days of severe weather for us, we have a level three out of five risk going into tomorrow from st. louis to nashville for the continued threat of tornadoes and damaging wind
11:20 am
spread in all of this dangerous, whether you also have dangerous heat? >> yes the gulf coast has been kind of sweltering since early may. >> it's been much above average for temperatures and that continues through the holiday weekend. so for a place like texas, we've got actually advisories and warnings and effect warnings from corpus christi down towards brownsville for heat index values up to 117 degrees possible. so keats sickness, definitely a threat there. look at the temperatures where your average this time of year is still in the upper 80s, you're looking at temperatures well into the 90s from new orleans down to miami. i mean, temperatures even surpassing 100 and del rio intact it says a well above average. so that puts you in the extreme zone for some of those his sickness risks and a major zone as well with those heat index values well over 100, you want to check on kids, elderly, and pads and all of this coming in areas that are already in the midst of their hottest may on record spring just kinda disappearing as the extreme heat season starts sooner.
11:21 am
yeah, we're just getting started. >> all right. at least rafah. thank you so much. >> all right. over the next few weeks, the us supreme court is expected to unveil more than a dozen major decisions on some of the most hot-button issues facing the nation including immunity for former presidents, january 6, obstruction charges disinformation on social media, and even emergency abortion care. but as the conservative dominated court prepares to set precedent possibly for generations there are signs of a growing rift among justices during recent oral arguments. cnn's joan biskupic has more, joan good to see you fred, the supreme court has just one month to resolve more than a dozen major cases, including whether donald trump must stand trial for election subversion. >> and there are signs of significant discord and just trust among the nine justices that will make it harder to pull together decisions. the liberals have been bluntly
11:22 am
exposing their differences with the conservative majority and opinions they contend that the majority is changing the law in america simply because with the new justices, it can conservatives who indeed hold the upper hand on this six to three court nonetheless have been spiking the writing and remarks with derision meanwhile, there have been self-inflicted controversies over ethics and perceived conflicts of interests. the latest from flags flown at houses owned by justice samuel alito, that are associated with trump's supporters and the january 6 attack on the capitol during the justices last two weeks of oral arguments, the anger on both sides of the bench was obvious. they sounded testy and looked weary. >> alito wrote release eyes. >> elena kagan, look pain clarence thomas rubbed his face in some cases, when could tangy brown jackson, the junior justice, was asking questions on the last round of a hearing. most of the others didn't look her way. the larger atmosphere suggested many were simply not listening to each other, are
11:23 am
respecting different views that pattern is bound to make the final weeks of negotiations especially difficult. and it could make it harder for chief justice john roberts to win unanimity or something close to it in the controversy over trump's demand for immunity the past in the past challenges to presidential power, whether involving richard nixon or bill clinton, chief justices work toward unanimous rulings these personal differences can also stymie compromise for a single chord opinion concurring opinions with competing rationales. often confused lower court judges and other people trying to understand the legal precedent. so while this antagonism is difficult for the justices internal negotiations, it can have real consequences beyond their walls for the law in america, fred, alright, joan biskupic, thank you so much. or it's still ahead. a shocking statistic shows just how popular marijuana is right now, where people are smoking weed

her uncle's unhappy. i'm sensing an underlying issue. it's t-mobile. it started when we tried to get him under a new plan. but they they unexpectedly unraveled their “price lock” guarantee. which has made him, a bit... unruly. you called yourself the “un-carrier”. you sing about “price lock” on those commercials. “the price lock, the price lock...” so, if you could change the price, change the name! it's not a lock, i know a lock. so how can we undo the damage? we could all unsubscribe and switch to xfinity. their connection is unreal. and we could all un-experience this whole session. okay, that's uncalled for.
11:28 am
tivo this is no secret war, secrets and spies premier sunday, june 2, attack on cnn close captioning is brought to you by tableau. >> watch, pause and record live tv subscription free. start watching tv for free with tableau switching to tableau has really been a money saver without a monthly description is amazing. >> quarter today at tableau tb.com all right. >> for the first time, it seems pot is more popular than alcohol in 2022, according to data collected by the us national survey on drug use and health 17.7 million people americans. that is, you know, said they use marijuana on a daily or near daily basis and 14.7 million said they drink daily doctor said you, matthew is here to talk about all of this. so does it seem surprising? >> not at all. i actually think that that number is probably not accurate friend i hope
11:29 am
people are smoking. you can smoke, you can eat, you can drink, and i'm actually seeing this condition called hyperemesis cannabinoids syndrome. >> what is that? these are people who spoke a lot of pot frequently that come in with unexplained abdominal pain, nausea, vomiting, they go to emergency rooms $50,000 polish later, we find out, hey, it's your marijuana, but good luck trying to get a young person to stop smoking because people will also argue about the medicinal i guess properties are advantages about marijuana. so they kind of figure i can just keep going and feel good. >> well, i'm gonna think they're two sides of the story absolutely. a biden administration is trying to down class the schedule one where marijuana is right now in the likes of heroin, marijuana is not heroine, it is not that dangerous if a drug, so if it's a scheduled three, kinda like drugs like testosterone than sign just can actually study marijuana, doesn't really help with chronic pain seizures. so there's a positive side to this, but
11:30 am
recreationally using marijuana early in your teenage showed lowers iq scores and can cause a lot of addictive property psychosis schizophrenia, and can affect brain development. >> oh my gosh. okay meantime, covid, it's still out there, but just as we've seen in the many iterations of covid, there are new strained and the latest one, what do we need to know about it? yeah. so there's a new sheriff in town. it is not surprising. no. reason to panic. three things real quick friday when we have a new variant, the first question to ask is it more transmissible? are more people getting infected at a more rapid rate secondly, does the vaccine work? and we find out that even though this variant is far removed from the earlier vance, the current vaccines still works. it's part of the omar kwan family. and lastly, it is not causing severe disease. what does this time the symptoms are not any different from a cold. >> so that's also why if you have a cold, you actually might have covid, you still need to
11:31 am
get tested rapid tests war, but the pcr test is most accurate. >> oh my goodness. okay. and then i'm going to they ozempic without breaking out in song with the commercials. the, you know, it's ingrained in my head by anyway, people look at ozempic as something to address diabetes, weight loss. and now there's another potential benefit, kidney disease. >> so these are good studies, these are good studies saying that not only does ozempic work to help you lose weight to help you control your diabetes. a lot of diabetics who have had diabetes for a long time are at risk for chronic kidney disease. and you don't have symptoms. a lot of the times for kidney disease if you don't have access to your doctor and your doctor is not checking your labs you actually might have spillage of protein from the kidneys and chronic kidney disease and chronic diabetes is a terrible combination, increases your risk of stroke, heart disease, and kidney failure. so now ozempic's actually can benefit patients who are at risk of
11:32 am
chronic kidney disease and cardiovascular disease as well. it is good news, but ozempic is not for everybody, right? >> i was about to say, boy, that's some kind of drug, but like you said, it's not for everyone. all right. doctor said you, matthew, great to see you. >> thank you so much. >> thank you. >> all right. never and its history has the us government predicted such a strong hurricane season? then what we expect to see this summer and it is all thanks to climate change riyadh say his new album is breaking records to say. >> what country is comey country? bianna, say a nashville's renaissance. monday, but eight on cnn with dry eye symptoms, key, kelvin bad inflammation might be to play over-the-counter wide drops can provide temporary relief you say dry can provide lasting relief. he targets inflammation. they can cause

university i'm more liebermann at the pentagon and this cnn all right the official start of hurricane season just days away, and experts are offering a dire warning this year. >> it's going to be a hyperactive season joining me now to help explain all of this as climate scientists and distinguished university of pennsylvania professor dr. michael mann he has also the author of our fragile moment, how lessons from earth's past can help us survive the climate crisis. professor, great to see you thanks, fredricka. it's great to be with you. >> okay, so this forecast is rather troubling should we largely attributed to climate change? or is there something else that's playing a role here? >> yeah, there's a role of natural variability and a roll of climate change. it's a combination of the two things, natural variability were coming out of an el nino event it's part of why global temperatures
11:38 am
were unusually warm compared to recent years. this last year el nino is this warming and the tropical pacific? it changes wind patterns over north america in the tropical atlantic were coming out of el nino and going into the opposite state law nino and the tropical pacific is cooler than normal and that actually leads to less vertical wind shear. wind shear that's changing directions are changing wind speeds, width, height in the app this sphere. and that makes it very difficult for hurricane to form when you have less of that vertical wind shear. it's a more favorable environment, so we're going into la nina more favorable environment. and those sea surface temperatures in the tropical atlantic or bathtub warn bathtub warm in substantial part because of human-caused warming, the overall warming of the oceans around the world and this summer in particular, the atlantic is very hot. >> oh, my so when forecast or say expect more storms, how
11:39 am
many more are we talking? >> well, we're predicting a record, a new record. the previous record was 2020. there were 30 named storms. that means you exhaust the alphabet. you have to go into the greek alphabet to start naming those storms. there were 302020. we're predicting anywhere between 27 and 39 storms, named storms this year with a most likely number of 33 named storms that would be a new record and are there any forecast that kind of place the target zones for any number of those, what, 27 to 27239 storms the technology sophisticated enough to try to make that kind of forecast. >> yet yeah, it turns out when you start talking about like how many major hurricanes are major land falling hurricanes along the east coast of the us. how many of those are there going to be um, you're dealing with this statistic ticks of
11:40 am
