khartiia.com or amazon cnn this morning with kasie hunt. >> we days at five easter you are. >> in the semen newsroom hello, i'm jessica dean in washington and we start with breaking news. a particular danger, dangerous weather situation for tens of millions of people this moral day weekend. intense tornadoes baseball sign as hail and hurricane-force winds threatening part of the us. let's get you right over to meteorologist, at least the rafah to explain why this alert is of high concern, elisa yes, it's a rare type of tornado watch. it's not used all the time because it's being labeled a particularly dangerous situation, meaning not only are we expecting tornadoes, but were expecting tornadoes that can be long live violent strong. and this are unfortunately is coming as we get closer and closer to sunset. so it could happen here at night have tornado watch his

stretching from wichita down towards san angelo, texas, the particularly dangerous situation is the one that is for the north sliver of texas and includes much of oklahoma, including oklahoma city, and then goes up into wichita until 11:00 central time this evening, again, labeled that particularly dangerous situation for the possibility of violent long tornadoes that would be ef2 and strength or greater. we already have found a couple of tornado warnings that have been issued for the northern part of texas here as these storms start to respond to the daytime heat and fire up, we also have a batch of storms that have been on the decaying trend and a severe thunderstorm. watch him parts of georgia. this is the threat. you can see that red bull's eye goes from wichita falls up towards wichita and then into springfield, missouri were intense tornadoes, baseball-sized hail, and those damaging wind gusts or possible, and again, it's that fear for the very strong tornadoes, some of the ones that we've kind of seen a lot of recently that could do extent and so damage again,

with this happening at night, make sure you turn on the emergency alerts and turn them on loud so they can wake you up. jessica. all right. good advice there at least a rafah. thanks so much. also tonight, former president donald trump will be speaking to a very different crowd, know adoring fans wearing red maga has instead he's going to deliver a speech at the libertarian parties convinced in a clear sign, the campaign is worried about third-party candidates like rfk jr. but tonight's attempt at winning over the libertarian vote could backfire according to politico, the event last night turned into a physical brawl if members throwing punches and shouting absynth obscenity is in protest of trump's appearance tonight let's go to cnn's steve contorno, who has more insight into the trump campaign. so steve, what? do you think we can actually expect from his speech tonight jessica, the trump campaign is acknowledging this is not exactly a hometown crowd for them in fact, jason miller, spokesman for the campaign, told are caliche, kate sullivan, quote, i absolutely there will be people who want him to be there and

people who don't want him to be there, but were on offense and competing for non-traditional votes in order to unite the country. >> now, vivek ramaswamy, the former presidential candidate turn trump supporter. he was here last night talking to this crowd, listen and to the reception he got when he was trying to convince them, maybe trump is a good option for them i have gotten to know donald trump over the course of the last several years. >> and the last several months and you're going to hear from him tomorrow night. >> and the question is, do you want to influence the next administration or don't you? that is the question for this room to ask and my thesis for you you believe in you all get to speak your mind. i respect that those were definitely booze. you heard jessica and we'll see what happens when trump takes the stage here in three hours. we have talked to several libertarian convention attendees who said they do intend to disrupt the former president as he speaks. but look, this is about outreach

and going for every last vote the trump campaign believes this this is gonna be an intensely close election. these third-party candidates may be a factor in some of these swing states. and it's a competition with rfk jr. over the libertarian vote and trump intends to try i don't want it. >> all right. steve contorno for us live from washington, dc. thanks so much a timely commencement address for president biden today, just ahead day, he spoke to graduating cadets at america's famed west point military perry academy, highlighting the vital role the military plays in america. cnn's priscilla alvarez is joining us now with more on today's speech. priscilla, what stood out to you? >> well, this was a notable moment. this was the third time he he has bogan to west point, the first time as president and it wasn't opportunity for him to thank the cadets, to congratulate them for their are humans, and to call them the next generation of leaders in both civilians in an military life. now, he did not name former president donald trump door, did he make a direct election year appeal? but he did underscore values that he

has said are at risk if donald trump were to take a second term that includes, for example, democracy, protecting it as well as the nato alliance and talking about us leadership on the world stage especially when it comes to ukraine and the invasion of ukraine, noting, are recalling the russian president's saying that the nato lines wasn't going to unify with ukraine. in fact, it did the president going on to say, quote, it is the greatest defense alliance in the history of the world, also maintaining that he does not expect you have us soldiers go to ukraine, but that the us will remain steadfast in its support. but the resounding message in all of that was importance of alliances and democracies. take a listen woman, and men in uniform are hard at work, strengthening our alliances because no country has allies like ours invested into terms. >> anyone who thinks they can

threaten us. thanks again, defending our values. by standing up to tyrants and safeguarding a piece of protecting freedom and openness thanks to the us armed forces, were doing only american could do as the indispensable nation. the world's only superpower i'm a leading democracy in the world never forget america is the strongest when we lead not only by our example of our power, but by the power of our example. >> so as you heard there, the president clearly underscoring us leadership across the world and taking the moment to not only reflect on that, but encouraged this new, these cadets as they move four forward any also emphasized the need for what he called urgent diplomacy in the middle east, specifically, what more did he say about that? yeah, he reflected briefly on the middle east and also talked about aid efforts in the region to get that to gaza being the pier that's been set up and also the food drop, how we saw weeks ago. but he also talked about

that urgent diplomacy around the ceasefire deal we've seen those talks stall to get the hostages out of gaza and more aid in. now we do know the cia director bill burns has left paris. that's where the latest rounds of talks were happening. us official say but there was progress, but no further meetings have been set at this time. but the president clearly keeping it top of mind as, as us officials work around the clock to try to reach some type of deal with partners in the region. and interesting to see him at west point today and morehouse college last week. so definitely making the rounds with the commencement addresses, personal, alvarez, thanks so much for that reporting and hugely consequential a hugely consequential week lies ahead for donald trump on tuesday closing in arguments in his hush money criminal trial. meantime, he is on the campaign trail tonight is we just mentioned, but he won't be facing necessarily a maga friendly crowd. he'll be at the libertarian in party convention and joining us now to discuss this in more democratic strategist, maria cardona and republican strategists. sure. michael's singleton both are cnn political commentator here's

great to have both of you here with us good to see you guys too. >> sure. michael, let's start first with you because we were talking to steve contorno just a few minutes ago. he's laying out or what it might look like tonight at this liberal libertarian convention. how do you think it's going to go in? >> and they'd be a little rough rough libertarians are known for letting their opinions and voices be heard but they do represent a court to gallup around 17, to 20% of the american electorate. >> we've been talking a whole lot. maria's, you know, about how close this race is going to be in if you're done while trump, you're looking at your margin, your ability to really increase in pulling new voters compared to president biden. >> it's a little slimmer. >> so you're really going to any and everybody who sought out there looking for a candidate said, hey i should be your option instead of staying home, sitting on the couch, think that's why the performer president is going there. it's weird because the reason why they boot him last night is because there's absolutely nothing libertarian about donald trump's agenda in fact, the opposite, he wants to take away women's freedom to do as

they feel is the best thing with their bodies. take he wants to take away people's right to vote. he wants to take away the right for you to love and be with whoever you want to be. this is understandable for this crowd who feel so strongly about freedom and they're not the only ones who feel strongly about freedom. >> turns out, the majority of americans like their freedom. >> they liked their democracy, which is why i think there's going to be such a challenge for trump. it's going to be interesting to see how it all goes. and it kind of speaks is broader point. sure. michael, that you just brought up about about trump trying to widen out who's going to deport him. but the, the bytes also two, they're both going on offense trying to appeal and capture as many voters outside of their base is possible. so on the biden front, we saw seizing on trump's controversial unified reich post, right? >> then we saw, or we actually have a clip of that. let's play it first what's next for america you on his official account wow, a unified reich.

that's hitler's language, that's not america's. he cares about holding onto power. i care about you we also saw this ad that they just put out with robert de niro voicing it, and it's kind of taunting trump because it's kind of unflattering pictures of him. but, but making the point they're trying to remind people of president trump's presidency and they're trying to remind them of the chaos that they see was present how important is it a bad message may get through? because we are seeing some amnesia with a lot of voters. >> and that's exactly why this is so critical. jessica, another ad that they put out yesterday as the two year-anniversary, the uvalde shooting is those images and president biden saying that he will never forget. and then focusing on the policies right? president biden hhs, the only one that has passed historic go uncontrol to be able to stop these kinds of tragedies from happening. >> and on the right one, this

reminds people exactly who donald trump is. >> he was the one who said in march in charlottesville. but there were good people on both sides. he's the one who told his chief of staff that he thinks hitler did some good things you're right, the amnesia is something that we absolutely in the biden campaign has to go at front and center, especially now when people are starting to pay attention. so biden campaign is going to be putting forth these reminders family separation is another ad that they put out and we remember that that was something was anathema to the majority of americans people ripping babies from the arms of their moms. >> so, yes, this i think is critical. >> they're going to continue to do it from now until the election because they need to remind people exactly what this guy will do. again, he's not been kept a secret. what he will do, it will be what he did four years ago on steroids. >> and yet sure. michael, we're seeing the former president and we saw him in the bronx a very, very blue district trying to appeal to voters of color,

specifically black voters, latino voters how do you think that message landed and see do you think it's true that there are some maybe trump curious voters out there that didn't this is really always fall within their demographic. >> i think there's certainly voters out there, particularly men of color, who were seeking to sort of reassert their political independence and political dominance i think that there are some who feel and i've had conversations with black women in particular who feel that a lot of the messaging and targeting from democrats only caters to women and. doesn't necessarily address many of their issues or many of their concerns. and then you have trump, but this sort of machismo, dominant strength for a lot of guys that's an inherent feature sure. they see that compared to biden and i said, well, this is someone that i'm certainly willing to listen to. and i think that if trump can sort of parse through the noise and talk about and articulate a message that speaks to economics as speaks to some of the health care disparities i've men of color face compared to our white male

counterparts. i do think that that message may land well, we see the numbers from 2020 compared to 2016, he increased from 8% to 12% with black men, for example, is it not possible that he could increase that number to 15 or 16%? i certainly mathematically think it is. some have argued that it could be even as high as 20 so the point that i'm making here is that i think there are a lot of men of color who are looking at both political parties and they're seeing a democratic party that is moving more to the left on a whole host of issues that a lot of men in general are just frankly not comfortable with. and here's donald trump well, wait a minute here, let the republican party b, the party for men and values that men care a lot about. and i think a lot of men are interested in that argument and we don't have much time, but maria, you can respond onto that and also the biden campaign aggressively going after haley voters having this call with haley voters now that she's saying she's going to vote for president trump, what do you make of their efforts? there i think that is a huge opportunities talking about opportunities for both of these candidates. >> that's a huge opportunity

for president biden and the moment that haley left the race president biden did make gestures saying, look, you all, nikki haley supporters are welcome. in my campaign, are welcome in my effort to continue to make this country better for everyone. and that was a big difference because donald trump had continued to insult nikki haley and her voters. and you have the biden campaign payne reaching out to them, they did a call with president biden recently, there the campaign is reaching out to nikki haley's fundraisers. and so i think that that's a huge opportunity because we saw that nikki haley uncovered a huge challenge and a huge gap within the republican party for donald trump that they should be very concerned about when she left the race. she was still getting 2025, 26, 30% of the republican vote. and so that is something that president biden is going to continue can you go after he's also going to underscore with black and latino voters

look as a latina. i've always said the more that both parties tried to come after the latino community with their with their policies and to get to get our support the better it is for our communities. but when you have a president who is focused on racism and xenophobia and misogyny. that is not going to be good for any of these communities. and that's going to be the contrast that president biden is going to continue all right. >> we're going to leave it there, but it is great to have both of you here. thank you so cardona and you're michael singleton still ahead. >> supreme court justice samuel alito under fire for flying fly eggs related to january 6 that we're going to speak to the congressman leading the charge to get alito censured plus some big store chains are hiring their own detectives to fight off brazen gangs of organized crime in the cnn newsroom russia is we're trying to spot hi on us. >> we were spying on them i was hadi friday this is a war. but

washington post, martha and alito, his wife was responsible for the upside down flag saying it was in response to a neighborhood dispute several top democrats though, are seeking a meeting with chief justice john roberts over that contract reversi joining me now is democratic representative steve cohen of tennessee, who's also a member of the house judiciary committee. and he's leading an effort to censure samuel alito, congressman, thanks so much for being here with us. why do you think alito should be? >> well, what he's done is contrary to his oath of office, is contrary to what the role of his supreme court justice should be. we should to be impartial and all times and board even the appearance of impropriety and it's clear that he's done that. he's done in the past what actions he did an action that the state of the union when he looked at the president, shook his head and muttered something that you might have no notes supreme court justice has ever muttered anything are made, any gestures and during a presidential state

of the union so he's done that before four. and it's needed we need to take note of it. we need to let the public know we care about it. we think it's wrong, and he should recuse himself. we asked for a censored. we also asked him to recuse himself from all cases relating to president trump and the january 6 insurrection. and also recuse himself from the case to do with church and state relations, having flown that flag and a supplication home concerning basically a christian nation and with the house being controlled by republicans, it's likely you're resolution won't get a floor vote in the house. >> why move forward with this well because you're not going to get a boat, which is unfortunate, doesn't mean you should still not stand up for people to find this to be reprehensible reprehensible towards the constitution and towards the department of towards justice. >> justice system or country i'm a lawyer and i have pride in the justice system and arson the system is made up to give people confidence in our government was they should rule of loss with respect to by people all over the world about

the united states and the rule of law has been stepped on. it has been stepped on by alitos the septa by clarence thomas when a bag goes, lot of trips but yachts all kind of the special favors for he hadn't and thomas as well. and then clarence thomas despite the supreme court, is at the nadir of its public acceptance, right now. and again, a society can't really continue and operate a government without all of us branches of government being accepted by the government, by the people and right now that supreme court is far from accepted and the supreme court only adopted a code of ethics back in november after a lot of public outcry over some of these ethics scandals. do you think that's sufficient? do you think that's a step in the right direction the step in the right direction, i commend senator whitehouse for what he did and leading that. >> but we need to go further. and we really i think we're probably gonna have to have an expansion of the court because what what's happened right now,

having this court so awful is mitch mcconnell and his control of the system. he stopped merrick garland from getting a hearing and a boat. would president obama recommended him? for supreme court within a year of the end of his term. and he said was too close to the mse term and it should be decided by the people in the election on november and he was i think, nominated in january or february not letting garlin be have a hearing and be voted on, resulted in gorsuch getting on the bench. >> and then when ruth bader ginsburg died, the death was only about three weeks or a month before the give or take, a month before the election. and mitch mcconnell forgot all about that. >> he rushed amy coney barrett through god or approved and if he does i have done that and they would have been fine to point c. so he stolen two judges and of course, kavanaugh they got the fbi, not to du a full investigation on the complaint that the lady made about him, that there was a party when he was in high school and he kind of guy he

got carried away and they didn't completely investigation. so there's three tainted appointments, two of which never should have happened garland should have gone up, bro yes or no vote. and amy coney barrett was too early brush through. >> all right. congressman steve cohen, we're going to have to leave it there. thanks again for joining us. we appreciate it. >> you're very welcome so ahead, 200 people were inside a shopping center in kharkiv when russian missiles rained down, killing two, injuring dozens. >> this is according to ukrainian officials, we are following the very latest and cnn newsroom assignments are going off and finding the tornado here. >> i'm thinking, i'm going to die. and i thought that was it fine when earth with liev schreiber premieres june 2, nine on cnn can the riva support your brain health janet, hey eddie know fraser, franck. franck, bread. how are you? fred fuel up to seven

forces from elsewhere on the eastern frontally where we are here to drive the north. >> and here's what we saw about ukraine's frankly desperate fight to try and keep the fences of kharkiv as solid as they can. some towns they can never let putin take and this lyptsi is one of them destroyed artillery on the streets homes, aflame from an airstrike. they can only move in night, lights off. it's a perilous grip. they keep but lose here and russian artillery will be in range of ukraine's second city, kharkiv. you can still smell the smoke here from an airstrike that landed just in the last hour or so this is life under the drone with a first reporters into the heart of the town only soldiers left here underground. the harb 13th national guard first tackled

russia's new offensive assembly bicyclic several i closing each that do you think they'll good enough fortifications here? on those initial see posits is that so it will do, behold, the loss knowledge airstrikes just in the last hour. >> so we leave soon a positive noise nearest, very close. and the only way they know who's drone this is, is if it attacks are the most thrown off around kharkiv that don't have enough guns. and the russians have too many drones but 92nd assault brigade show us something that isn't even there's russian artillery piece that they captioned in first war and the fighting in kharkiv region. and now they use strangely french

mortar rounds to far from here. it's just a sign of how appropriate ammunition they have available to them i think beauty of this wire as a protection from mpv drones above. >> he sees a drone with two battery packs, a long-range scout around basement. it is not friendly if you can tell it's let's attack drone hide this seems to be a scout, so running is better before it calls in shelling another artillery unit wants to show us something not even russian, but soviet made in the 1940s. it can still fire newer polish shells. in the autumn, it was 100 a day. now it is ten extraordinary to see something here that's three times the age of either of these two guys holding backer new russian offensive in 2024 i said a metal so old that limits the number of times that sound

skyline, their suffering because of that lack of western interests and i think it's gonna get worse. i don't believe the kremlin is about to slow down in this current offensive. they know that western weaponry there's arriving soon and they want to see the best progress they can in the weeks ahead, jessica. >> all right. nick paton walsh for us. excellent reporting their thanks so much. we'll be right back. >> this is difficult mavericks covered the begins tomorrow, which seven mj western conference finals presented by at&t on tnt with western conference finals, old cast on truth these days, everyone staring at screens, am watching their spending. >> good vision is more important than ever, but so is saving. that's why america's best includes a free eye exam when you buy two pairs of glasses for justice, 79, 95 hi, book an exam online today from tried and true to try something new so, many ways to save life,

are sent for tuesday in the new york hush money trial against former president donald trump. both sides have received jury instructions. one of the final steps before the jury goes into deliberations and no one can say how long that might take, but we do know trump is expected to stay at the courthouse in a war room of sorts during the delivery missions. cnn contributor and former nixon white house counsel john dean is joining us now. john great to see you here is i'm saying this out loud. it is amazing to see this history unfolding before us. the former president will be in this war room at a courthouse waiting to see what the verdict is in this criminal trial. what are you expecting to hear in the closing argument? >> well, i know the state will go first excuse me. he had the prosecution will go last in the state system, whereas trump will and his team will go first. so i expect to hear them really avoid the documents go

after a couple of the witnesses, probably stormy daniel's and michael cohen, and that'll be their focus trying to tear them down is unreliable. witnesses. >> then the prosecution will go and they'll have the rebuttal as well as the close. >> they'll have the last word in the case. and i think they'll go towards the documents which on one track will actually yet them all the way to a verdict of guilty, as well as the witnesses you can go to the second track and find guilt on basis of the witness's testimony. so i think there's a two track argument going for them. whereas just one track going for the defense. >> and the former fbi director james comey, appeared on our air. he said the prosecution has built a strong case. we can listen to how he described it where do you think this is headed? i think it's highly likely to result in a conviction. you do. oh, yeah. >> some a small possibility i think of a hung jury. i think

there's almost no possibility of acquittal. yeah. i think they built a case that was not subject to cross-examination, really, it's based on documents and texts and emails in the words of the defendant and then they presented their most controversial witness, the cooperating bag man john, i know you've been reading the transcripts. >> is this trial has been ongoing for several weeks now, do you agree? with jim comey there? where do you see this going i do agree with the former director. >> i think that they have laid out a very strong case. it is likelihood of a hung jury in most all cases is highly remote. juries really want to do what they're there to do. and it's unusual to have a hung jury on the other hand, i cannot see where for this jury could ever get to find him not guilty. so while there is a possibility of a hung jury, it's highly remote, and i think if there's any wiggle room jessica, it would be in not charging are not reaching a

verdict on all the counts and passing on a few of the counts are finding even they couldn't find an agreed pretty much on the accounts, but on, for example, all the signed checks, i think they're going to find him guilty on all those at the threshold of that being a felony, you think that they will find him? i'm guilty on at that level yes, i do it while it's a little intricate, they now have the there's been no, no noise about it. >> it hasn't been get released publicly. they have the jury instructions the judge there will have laid out the mechanics for how the jury can find the felony, and it doesn't have to be a specified felony and they don't even all have to agree on the felony that can be that the for example everything from the initial conspiracy with pecker and study he up to unfairly influence the election through money that was should not have been spent on that purpose or without declaring it all the

way down to the the bookmaking or the book if failures that they conspicuously committed and i hear what you're telling me it does not sound like you think it is it's going this way, but i am curious if you believe that if we get to a not guilty verdict or i'm sorry, if we get to know verdict rather, if it is a hung jury can they take that as a win can trump and his team take that as a when you think he will take it as a win, he will claim the whole system was rigged all along. >> and this is evidenced of it. whether it's one or two jurors are more. if it's hung, he'll claim somebody was smart enough in there to see what was going on on and he will pound his chest on that so it's not a it's not a good prospect for the criminal justice system for new york state state's efforts in this case, which have been flawless largely flawless, and
