here in washington, that is a live look at the world war ii memorial on the national mall on this memorial day, when we think so many who gave the ultimate sacrifice for us. good morning, everyone. i'm jessica dean infer kasie hunt. it is great to be with you today. more than 120 20 million people are under severe storm threats after deadly thunderstorms battered the southern plains this weekend, killing 18 people. in northern texas at tornado reduce parts of cook county to absolute rubble killing seven people, including two young children the heartbreak of a family losing a two-year-old and a five-year-old child coming back to this location right now for the first time, knowing that i was just here and it's all destroyed is it's mind-blowing eight people also killed in
3:03 am
arkansas, where a state of emergency remains in place this morning. and look at what remains of a strip mall that ripped through the town of rogers, arkansas and oklahoma officials say two people are dead, 23 others injured as storms leveled homes. they're leaving widespread damage he'd urologists derek van dam is tracking all of it for us derek, what is in store for today okay. >> so jessica, we've got some new video that we just obtained here at cnn. this is from a twister that move through dawson springs, kentucky late last night and why this is so concerning is because this area was ravaged by an ef4 tornado back in december of 2021. so to have another twister which has clearly very dangerous on the ground within this area is concerning and there's been reports of tree damage, lots of power outages. you can see people just trying to clean up the initial mess that was left in the wake of these storms that move through. now that
3:04 am
same storm system advances to the east coast atlanta, all the way to new york and our nation's capital that i95 corridor hundreds thousands of, people if not millions of people, under the threat. and we have a severe weather threat for the day tomorrow too. so just recycling this severe weather threat over the next few days. here's a look at the power outages. we have the greatest number of customers out across kentucky. and you saw the storms and the tornado that move through there yesterday. there it is. the line of storms now approaching portions of central alabama into northern georgia. we have tornado watches and severe thunderstorm watches, including the greater birmingham area, wouldn't be surprised if atlanta is included within some sort of watch within the next coming minutes. a few severe thunderstorm warnings as we speak, but the storm system really has are greatest risk of tornadoes across the mid-atlantic. and that includes our nation's capital. i'm jessica we have had over 1,000
3:05 am
reports of severe weather since friday as the system finally exits off the east coast and then we recycled less severe weather threat into texas for the day tomorrow. so can't stop, won't stop. it is so busy. >> a just keeps coming. all right. derek van dam with the latest though. thank you so much for that donald trump of booed during his speech at the libertarian national convention over the weekend the libertarian party should nominate trump for president of the united states only do that if you want to win. if you want to lose, don't do that keep getting your 3% every four years yeah here it their the former president heckled, jeered at multiple times during his roughly 34 minutes speech. >> it's one of his shortest campaign speeches to date. it is highly unusual for a presumptive republican nominee to attend the libertarian convention. and it highlights the trump campaigns growing concern over third-party
3:06 am
candidates joining us now republicans i just rena shaw lins, over, former spokesperson for doug burgum, 2024 presidential campaign, and former special assistant to president biden meghan hayes. good morning, everybody. here we all are on a nice memorial day lance, let's just start first with you, read and i were talking last hour about seeing the former president at that libertarian convention why do you think he was there? and what does it say to you that he was there? >> i think this is part of a broader strategy they have going and reaching out to non-traditional republican groups. and i would say to democrats and anybody who questions that underestimate donald trump at your own peril when it comes to reaching out to these groups, we've seen that he is pulling really well with latinos, african-americans across the country. and despite the rockets atmosphere, i would say that he made some pretty big commitments to this group of people out there today. this can commutation of ross ulbricht, which is a big deal to them. that's going to filter down through the atmosphere. it is a little unconventional, but again, i've not seen a republican candidate like
3:07 am
donald trump in many years doing this kind of outreach to non-traditional republican groups. >> so it sounds like you're saying comes from a place of offense, not defense. >> what i don't think anybody the biden. biden campaign or the trump campaign believes that this is going to be some blow out election. everybody knows that each vote is going to count and so i say, hey, why not go to this convention, make your case these folks granted the reaction, may not have been exactly what he had hoped for, but in terms of the long-term and the outreach where they're libertarians gonna go, are they gonna go with joe biden or are they going to go with somebody like donald trump and rena? i want to listen to some clips of him talking about them going back and forth at each other. let's listen to this with a lockdowns, the mask mandates the travel restrictions. president trump presided over the greatest restriction on individual liberties. this country has ever none. >> rfk junior, i call him junior by the way. he's radical don't think about it don't waste your vote. we need a
3:08 am
conservative person with common says, he, he said directly there, he's, he's he's trying to educate them. he it seems like in a way, listen, he's this, he's not that let me recall campaign tactic, right? it was to me the type of thing that was more revealing of who arcade junior actually, is. and he is somebody that took a real issue again with those covid era policies. and it was probably the most salient point he's made in a while on the campaign trail because that is something that a lot of people we'll have ten to forget overall is the poor handling of the trump administration how they handle that pandemic? i always say trump lied, people died and we forget that. then we forget the greatest mistake he's made in his presidency and why he doesn't deserve to re-enter the white house. his administration knew of so many things coming down the pike, yet they failed to act and then they wanted to take advantage of basically the environment
3:09 am
and say we did operation warp speed. hey, that was the bare minimum. so again, i think if we focus on covid, people realize that trump did things that don't jive with libertarians. and i think that will also trickle down and make its way to liberate terrion. but the question remains, where do they go? i think a lot of libertarian stay home and look, it's not unusual for them to interface with conservatives. i've attended places like freedom fest for summers many years, where i've seen conservatives and libertarians co-exist well, but this again was a poor move on trump's part. i think trying to court their votes but it fell flat and meghan, in terms of the biden campaign, they're also trying to guard against robert f. >> kennedy jr. in their own way, which is what's unique about him as a candidate. >> yeah, i just think that the biden campaign is doing this little bit more strategically. and i think that they are going after votes on the issues which is n drawing a contrast to trump and to rfk. but again, i don't think biden campaign, it's taking rfk very seriously. i disagree a little bit with you guys on why he was there. i think he doesn't have
3:10 am
money and he can't afford to do he's big rallies. he is showing up where cameras are. and this is the way to do it. and he gets attention. we're out here talking about it, regardless if it's good or bad, we're talking about it. so he's getting the attention that he needs and wants and lance, he knew he was going to go but when a rocket, as you described it and it was certainly know, he'd been that way the night before two when vivek ramaswamy was there talking about him and i talked to one analyst that was saying, look, it was a chance for him to show like, see, i can go toe to toe even if they're if they're pushing back on me or belittling may what do you think about that? i think that this is donald trump and this is what he does. and i think that is something people actually like about him, is that he is not afraid to throw himself into the leinz den and be a fighter. but again, if you look at what they're doing, whether it's in the bronx last week, are going to these types of things. i do think there is some strategy behind what they're doing in terms of reaching out to non traditionally republican groups out there, because this is obviously going to be a very
3:11 am
close election and they know that every vote is going to count. >> yeah and meghan, how does the how does the biden campaign then move forward while he's reaching out to kind of like you mentioned, he's got he's he did the bronx. >> he's he did this in this weekend by campaigns obviously going after haley voters, they are looking outside of their normal base because this is likely going to be won on the margins and some of these swing states, yeah, i think that the biden campaign is meeting voters where they are, they're going to the suburbs of philadelphia. they are going into arizona, they are reaching people where they are, they're talking about issues at those folks care about which the women outside of the suburbs of philadelphia, they care about reproductive freedom. donald trump's not mentioning that because he knows it's a losing issue for him. so i think that they're going on the policy and trying to draw a contrast of who the biden who joe biden is vs donald. >> and it is going to be interesting too, because now we're most of months, let's see exactly what exactly a month away from this debate, rena, more, they're going to be on stage together again, neither of them have debated since this last go around. so it's gonna be interesting to
3:12 am
see this all kind of come to a head pretty soon. >> we'll all be very interested in know who's watching because this also feels like a moment in which people say, again, what are they going to hear that's different when you talk about from showing up in different places looking like a fighter, what's he fighting for anymore? i don't hear it. young families like mine with really tiny children, we have a lot of big, unexpected costs coming down the pike, always, but it feels magnified when you don't hear a candidate that once your vote says, i'll make your life better. but how exactly what what are you gonna do with wars? what are you gonna do on the economy? what do you think going to do to strengthen the american family? we don't care. the republican party put out really clear issues anymore, like those pet issues. i heard doug burgum talk about he really piqued my interest when he was on the debate stage, because when candidates talk in specifics, people listen and trump doesn't do it ever. he's always speaking in platitudes and i think that's my great frustration, is that what are
3:13 am
you fighting for? your out here? just fighting and you're angry, but you're not fighting for my family when you don't talk about my needs and that is going to be the challenge in the debates when biden says to him, i did this, that or the other, whether it's junk fees what have you at least he's got some concrete things that's what trump world needs to focus on now, okay, let's leave it there for now, but you'll still be here. we have more to discuss coming up, but up next turbulence causing passenger injuries during a flight the second time in less than a week, plus the search for survivors after a deadly landslide and papua new guinea and how president biden plans to remember america's heroes on this memorial day one one series dallas stars game three of the western conference final, presented by geico numbers begins tonight is seven

national memorial. they concert held yesterday as we now look live at the world war ii, moral in washington, dc, today of course, americans across the country will honore and remember are false when military heroes, president biden is expected to mark the somber holiday with a visit to arlington national cemetery here to discuss how else the president will be honoring our heroes on this memorial day. cnn's kevin lip tech, who joins us now from the white house. kevin yeah certainly one of the most solemn days for any american president as they remember, our war dead. certainly it's a tacit reminder if the weight of responsibility that they carry on their shoulders every day and this day does unfold with a sense of dignified remember, it's every year the president hosting a military breakfast here at the white house. later, he'll travel to arlington national cemetery to lay a wreath at the tomb of the unknown soldier and then
3:34 am
deliver remarks at the memorial amphitheater, all honoring troops, as he said last year, dared all and gave all fighting for their country. i was driving here today past that world war ii memorial. now i was reminded jessica were only about a week-and-a-half away from the 80th anniversary of d-day, president biden will be there in northern france next week, remembering the thousands of american and allied troops who died in the normandy landing, all with the goal of protecting democracy in europe. of course that has been sort of a consuming theme of president biden's presidency. certainly in an election year, protecting democracy and you did hear him discuss that this weekend at west point, speaking to the graduating cadets, they're saying that they were swearing an oath not to a president or a political party, but to the constitution of the united states of america, listen to a little bit more of his message to those cadets the very beginning not as guaranteed
3:35 am
about our democracy in america every generation has an obligation to defendant to protect it to preserve it so that's a message that certainly resonates on memorial day as well particularly at such a fraught international moment, the president confronting two grinding wars abroad in ukraine end in gaza he has pledged not to deploy american troops to those warzones. and in fact, he reiterated that pledge over the weekend, but nonetheless, the us has been drawn into the fray and the risks for us troops have been laid bare. it was only in february that the president traveled to dover air force base to join grieving families to witness as their loved ones were returned home after dying in a drone strike, and jordan certainly that day and today, all a reminder of the weight of responsibility for the president's decisions and the consequences of this office just okay absolutely.
3:36 am
>> kevin love tack from the white house thanks so much for that reporting. we are now just a day away from closing arguments in donald trump's criminal hush money trial. the jury could potentially reach a verdict by the end of the week prosecutors will be trying to weave together weeks of testimony and evidence. they say proves trump falsified business records to help his 2016 presidential campaign. but regardless of the verdict, there's mixed reaction from democrats on the impact this case will have on trump's reelection chances. >> couldn't just give them a boost if he is acquitted i don't really think so. >> i think donald trump's character is clear to the world. >> i think the new york cases, if anything, may have backfired. again so she thought that would be the salvation, but i don't think the new york cases are exactly what democrats were hoping they would. >> the broad centrist middle of the american people i think understand what he did and why it is so a porn i'm already deeply disturbed that donald trump has he didn't
3:37 am
slow-walking one or more of those cases so our panel is back now to talk about this. >> obviously the hush money trial has taken up a lot of this candidates time and his focus, we've certainly been talking about it a lot in the media as we cover this election year and these campaigns i'm curious how each of you think that this any sort of verdict might impact the campaign moving forward, lins, you want to start? >> yeah. i don't think so. i mean, i think trump supporters are with them all the way and look i mean, the trump campaign has been fighting a two front battle here as somebody who's done a presidential campaign, i can tell you one battle alone is enough, but i think they've done a pretty good job of it. if anything, they're gonna be glad just to have this thing over so they can get focused on the general election again. but at the end of the day, i don't think that this is really going to impact his standing in the polls. everybody knows everybody's been following the trial. they know he's on trial, they know it's in new york, judge, they know it's in new york city. so i'm not sure it's really going to have, even if he becomes a convict
3:38 am
look, this is one of four cases and everybody loves to talk about how this is sucked up. the oxygen in all of traditional media. but people are not getting all their news from traditional media. they're getting it from bifurcated sources. they're getting it on their phones, streaming at their leisure. and this is where we stand to see a real device and how this shakes up. come this summer i'm one of the people that tends to think a convicted felon will status will ruin it for president trump, the presumptive nominee of the republican party, where he sits right now, isn't a place of goodness the minute a conviction comes down, i think it shakes up the rnc. i think we get closer to a brokered convention. i was 2016 rnc delegate. i can tell you we lost the fight to deny trump the nomination on the floor that summer, but this is where things get dicey. do they really want to put somebody forward on the ballot this fall? that is convicted felon, that shakes the american consciousness. democrats will have a field day with that. i

don't think they want to do it, so we need to start talking about a brokered convention. >> interesting. and meghan, in terms of the renin just mentioned, the democrats, would they have a field de, with a convict? >> look, i think that yeah, those are great talking point then it just it's going to fire up his base more regardless if he is convicted are not convicted, but those aren't the people that we need to be concerned about. we are concerned about the people those 5% of voters that are not paying attention right now, that are the nikki haley voters or black people and latino people. those are the people that we need to be to be talking to. and those are the people who are not paying attention right now. so i'm not sure it moves the needle a ton either way, but i think either way it's firing up the base. but those aren't the people who are going to win the election for him. and those are the folks that are going to care if he's convicted. the part though, about the base. so the base is shrunk. we have the empirical evidence to back it up. mega is not as big as used to be. and certainly the powers there, but in the short term, so i tend to believe that all this talk of it not moving the needle is us not really looking
3:40 am
at the long game here. this is very serious unchartered constitutional territory. we are talking about the fact that we minimize it with certain segments of this demographic they're really only six states and play that will be the swing this time determining it when you're looking at the sunbelt and you see trump being very competitive and places like georgia, arizona, nevada house is going to shake down with all those voters. that's the part we need to see more focused on. and i'm not seeing it right now. okay. let's listen to tim scott. he was on over the weekend. let's let's listen to what he said about a potential verdict do you have faith that the jury is going to deliver a fair verdict well, there's no crimes via assume that they will actually find him in nsset, the only person guilty in that courtroom has de a bragg guilty of corrupting the justices system guilty of not doing his job, and guilty of trying to frame an innocent man. it's really the two tier justice system that has so many
3:41 am
americans concerned about fairness in our country so, he talks about a two tier justice system, but at every turn, trump is, they have handled him carefully in the sense that they've tried to give him as much leeway as possible. >> the judge has warned him how many times about the gag order and i don't want to put you in jail, but i might put you in jail still though lins, do you think he can effectively he being trump, continued to make this argument that he's been targeted and also to see somebody like tim scott coming to his aid, right now i think the trump campaign has done a phenomenal job in terms of their messaging, particularly when it comes to this judge who, whether it's $35 are $0.35, donate it to his political opponents campaign. >> his daughter is raising hundreds of millions of dollars for democrats and the one thing that they also did really well in the messaging front is they brought these surrogates out, right? to come stand with him, to get around the gag order that to say the things that he cannot say. i think they've done a great job and messaging that's why you look at these poles and he's leading because there is a contingency of
3:42 am
voters out there who are saying, look, he's not getting a fair shake. there is a tutor justice system it is interesting though we didn't quite get two attempts got also went on saying that he he was saying i'm not seeing video of them reading joe biden's garage like they did mar-a-lago, but there is indeed video and the president's home was searched by the fbi. >> so it is interesting to see what they're trying. the picture that they're trying to paint with all this. okay. stick around we'll be right back with you guys up next. air travel safety, the biden administration sending an ultimatum to boeing plus y, the boss is canceling three concer t in one of the most active 22 seasons. you can't control what kinds of interventions can we design go inside the store

office is not then the president is going to be able to go off into a peaceful retirement. >> but that the president may be criminally prosecuted by a bitter political opponent. will that not lead us into a cycle that destabilizes the functioning of our country as democracy rain dk, cnn and take a look at this from washington post columnist jennifer rubin over the weekend, quote, one wonders what more supreme court justice samuel alito junior needs to do to the file. the court's reputation before senate judiciary committee chairman senator dick durbin of illinois will do something more than issue a terse tweet or letter joining me now cnn senior political analysts, ron brown, steen, ron, good morning to you just going good morning. >> i just going off what jennifer rubin wrote their here's the thing though dick durbin doesn't he could he could try to put some legislation forward, but where is it going? on capitol hill in
3:52 am
terms of oversight on the supreme court? >> yeah. well, the real question i think the practical question is are our, the senate democrats doing enough to explore the real issues here? and i think jennifer rubens column reflects, i've had my own interviews over the last week. there is enormous frustration in democratic circles and civil liberties, civil rights circles that senate democrats have not done you have, i think jessica, you have this extraordinarily combustible situation? relation because you have to really, i think unusual dynamics coming together first, rarely if ever, has the supreme court based as many decisions as they have in this term with immediate implications for the next presidential election within months in not only the immunity case, but the question on the obstruction statute that's used as part of the case against trump. and obviously the ballot axis. and at the same time, rarely if ever, have you had
3:53 am
allegations as specific of partisan bias as those facing alito and for that matter, justice thomas given his wife's involvement in the efforts to overturn the 2020 elections when you put those two things together and consider that alito, whatever, whatever he may have already had enormous impact on this because we don't know of course, which justices agreed to hear trump's appeal of the dc circuit opinion a sweeping away really his claims of immunity and just the act of hearing this case. and delay it for months has had an enormous impact on the on the potential of having this trial before november. look at what's happening in new york. i mean, the timetable of the new york case hey, so i think the ability to move that through the system toward foreign all arguments toward final decision under underscores, what could have been in terms of a january 6 trial, if the supreme court had not intervened in the way that it hasn't, that alito while flying this flag may have
3:54 am
been part of already and it's so fascinating and it is worth reminding everyone, they didn't even have a formal code of ethics until late last year after some of these ethical scandals had broken out, that there just hasn't been a tremendous amount of oversight over the supreme court yeah and look, john roberts has a decision to make. >> i mean, durban has not done much, but one thing he has done is with sheldon whitehouse, written roberts a letter in his role as the chief administrative officer of the us courts asking him to come to explain what, if any, are the are the kind of rules by which he is judging whether alito is fit to participate in this decision. i mean, really i mean, there is legislation from whitehouse to impose a code of ethics. obviously that's not going anywhere in in this congress. but the question of democrats kialerting the public to the implications of justices with these kinds of
3:55 am
very specific, not generalized conservative or liberal philosophy issues, but specific questions of partisan bias ruling on a case with such immediate implications. for the next presidential election for the two parties they have not done anything near what i think most people who are concerned about this believe it is appropriate and we are seeing the court already by the by the timetable that has followed, taking its time in resolving this already having an enormous impact potentially on the outcome of the 2024 election and before i let you go so i do want to ask you about a separate topic. >> it's about something you wrote, quote, even as donald trump relies on unprecedented support from black and latino voters, he's embracing policies that would expose their communities to much greater police surveillance and enforcement the policies that trump is pledging to implement around crime and policing. in a second presidential term. >> would reverse the broad trend to police reform that
3:56 am
accelerated after the murder of george floyd four years ago today, we're writing that on that anniversary. one more. can you tell us about that before we let you go? >> yeah. real quick. i mean, donald trump is proposing and it's received very little attention in array of policies on policing that would push kind of local police departments toward much more aggressive tax tactics requiring he wants to require local police departments to implement stop and frisk, which was the policy ultimately declared unconstitutional in new york city of stopping a large number of people, particularly young black and latino men, as he wants to require them to do that as a condition of receiving federal law enforcement. he wants to make it harder to sue police for misconduct. he wants to aea said he will bring the national guard over the objections of local officials into communities that he that he deems as where crime is out of control. there may be an
3:57 am
audience are part of these policies, but i think the criminal justice experts i talked to a universally agree whether they liked these policies you're not that it is going to mean more arrests of young black and latino men and in that way, it fits into the broader, broader point, which is that if you compare where we are now 2020, trump's gain is primarily among non-white rather than white voters. and the question of whether you can hold that support all the way to the end when policies like these are mass deportation ending birthright citizenship are more in the air and discuss more really is maybe the biggest single open question this election at the very interesting, right? ron brown's, you know, always good to see you. thanks so much thanks for having me. another scary scene in the air. this weekend is 12 people were injured after severe turbulence hit a qatar airlines like to dublin, that incident coming just days after a man died on another flight due to turbulence and all of this as an faa order looms for boeing
3:58 am
to present a plan to fix quality problems with its assembly line. boeing is expected to deliver the plan this week it was ordered after a door blue office 7307, max and mid-flight earlier this year. here's transportation secretary pete buttigieg the concerning part, of course, is that any of those issues are happening at all. and that's why a boeing is under a huge amount of scrutiny right now, including from the faa. they're going to have to do more to demonstrate their readiness to safely increase production. and again, obviously the goal is for them to do so, but only on a safe and healthy basis. >> the panel is back here for the end of the show today, i think we've all kind of, we're talking about this and during the break at different times, but just this idea that it's more in the consciousness that it was just the turbulence thing number one for a lot of us that fly a lot, does it, is it? >> have you all been thinking about this? >> this is shaken me because i'm not only an amateur aviation, i have flown in planes that have been built by people who like a person i
3:59 am
know. >> so that's yeah, i i've url west virginia. >> i mean, we were into those things. >> but i'm also somebody has taken long long-haul international flights routinely and this is really shocking for qatar airways. >> and in particular, that has a great reputation. so this tells me, this goes beyond just like a passengers bill of rights issue. this is a larger issue and i almost have really concerned about children. i've taken my children on my lap in many instances, they were saying you've yeah, careful because they're on your lap and that the forces said it's really mind-boggling that some long-haul flights i've taken, for example, from here to los angeles, have had cross body seat belts but the vast majority of crocs have lap seat belts. so i'm hoping there will be some real changes here because once thought i was really interested in seeing is that in the past most large commercial airliners were able to get notified of turbulence. and now that's really not happening for whatever reason are at the rate at used to happen. so it's more difficult
4:00 am
now for pilots to predict when they're going to experience his turbulence is why having all this radar technology and whatnot and that i think is going to be the real challenge. cheers. i feel less safe. yeah, one of the experts was explained that unless there's like rain in it or moisture and you can't see it on the radar, you do rely on these other pilots going ahead of you but i think it makes me want to put my it's not that i didn't ever i always had my seat belt on, but i'm a alone more thoughtful about i stay in my seat with the signal it's. >> the long-haul flight and i gotta go to the bathroom but other than that, i am buckled in yeah. yeah. and i think people are thinking about this more. >> i think people are thinking about it more people are taking more precautions like you're saying in your seat, everyone sing and mercy. but i also think we need to be looking at climate change is not just what the airlines can do. there are other things here that are impacting this, and i think we should to take a relook at right. >> and that's what the experts have said to that it is it is going back to climate change. all right, thanks to this panel, always good to see all of you and thank you for joining us this morning. i'm jessica dean and for kasie hunt and cnn news central starts
