2:02 am
wednesday morning. >> good morning, everyone. i'm kasie hunt. it's wonderful to have you with us for the first time in american history, the child of a sitting president has been convicted of a crime. a jury in delaware finding hunter biden guilty on all three felony charges, two, for lying about his drug use on a federal background check. a third possessing for possessing a gun while addicted to or using illegal drugs. the verdict ended a very stressful week and a half for the biden family. the trial exposing painful details about the extent of hunter's drug use the president embracing his just convicted sun on a tarmac in wilmington shortly after the verdict was handed down, the president releasing the statement, quote, as i said last week, i am the president, but i am also a dad, jill and i love our son and we are so proud of the man he is today. he added as i also said, last week, i will accept the outcome of this case and will continue to respect the judicial process as hunter considers an appeal reaction came in quickly from
2:03 am
across capitol hill. here's a little bit from both sides of the aisle but mr. speaker, you've been saying two tier system of justice for some time. here's the president's son being convicted on three counts that undercut your clients. >> it doesn't every case is different and clearly the evidence was overwhelming here. i don't think just the case in the trump trial. >> i've not heard a single democrat anywhere in the country cry fraud cry fixed, cry, rigged a cry kangaroo court. you don't hear a single peek out of any democrats saying that why we believe in the rule of law all right, journey is down to discuss deaf kite political reporter for axios, stef. good morning to you. thank you so much for being here. good. >> how would you characterize what we're hearing in reaction to this conviction we've got a little taste. >> they're from each side. >> yeah, it's an interesting democrats have certainly been kind of sticking to the talking point that no one is above the law and they've been pretty muted in their response or certainly not rushing to the
2:04 am
defense of hunter, right now, they're just saying we need to trust the justice system and on the other side, i think it's been interesting to see how republicans are responding to this because of course, we've heard from some that they are opposed to certain gun laws and they've been using that as one reason. to kind of push back on the hunter conviction here and we've also seen republicans say, yeah, maybe they found him guilty in this situation, but this isn't enough. we've heard from exam, for example, james comer are calling for more investigation into biden family members. so we're seeing them take this and demand more certainly not cheering this very loudly from republicans. >> yeah, i mean, the way republicans are, i mean, in some ways they're they're almost downplaying it. >> this was matt gaetz, who of course has been you know it doesn't exactly. >> shy away from saying inflammatory things. he writes this, the hunter biden gun conviction is kinda dumb to be honest, dbh and then marjorie
2:05 am
taylor greene says that what we really should be focused on quote, unquote remains untouched and then she says hunter biden just became the deepstate sacrificial lamb to show that justices balanced, while the other biden crimes remain ignored. she's of course, talking about the sprawling impeachment investigation into the president via some of the business activities of his son that ultimately showed have so far failed to turn up anything extraordinarily incriminating. it does put them in a little bit of a difficult spot when they are saying what they're saying about former president trump's conviction. >> exactly i mean, the reality is this does undermine some of their arguments that they've been making for the past several years, that the justice department, that justice system is biased against conservatives and that trump is a victim of this. and now we have hunter biden, the son of the sitting president, a democrat and a very democratic state who is still being found guilty of federal charges. and so that doesn't quite neatly fit into
2:06 am
this narrative that republicans have been spinning four. again since 2015, 2016. and so we're seeing them trying to get around on that. of course. and one of the ways they're trying to get around this is by saying, oh see, this was just to make people forget about how bad the case was against trump. they're pointing to this as no politically motivated, still even now, because again, they need to explain this away. how can if the justice system is so rigged, how can hunter biden still be found guilty in a democratic state so in terms of the president himself, i mean, clearly the statement that they put out focused on his role as a dad, you obviously was on camera when he embraced hunter there after this all came down, he did not go to the trial, but his wife, the first lady, jill biden, attended every single day. >> i mean, what do you hear from sources about how the stress of going through this has affected them as they are the president's campaign for reelection.
2:07 am
>> yeah, i mean, there's no question that joe biden cares a lot about his family. it's a very close-knit family and there's no question that that hunters ongoing issues with addiction and then these criminal cases have impacted him. he is invested the fact that we did see him immediately helicopter to delaware to see hunter after this decision came through shows that he is invested in this. the fact that the first lady was there and you know, every every day at this trial, this is going to impact the family emotionally and it's going to impact joe biden as he is trying to run for reelection in a very closely contested race. whether we see this actually impact 2024 is still an open question. there's no polling that indicates that voters are necessarily going to change. there minds around this. but i do think the biggest impact this could have is on joe biden's focus and how he's willing to campaign and whether he's willing to set this aside and really focus on what needs to be done i mean, look like presidential campaign is a crucible and anything that distracts you has the potential
2:08 am
to really kind of effect thanks from a very and he's got this trial coming up in september on tax issues. >> han fei, those which is of course very squarely in the political calendar, steph. thank you. i really appreciate you. start us off this morning. thank you. >> alright coming up next here, president biden heading out on another international trip today, plus the southern state with almost a month's worth of rain in a single day more is coming plus the matchup is set to one the most important senate races of the year. >> but bring you that the most anticipated moment of this election and the stakes couldn't be higher. the president and the former president, one stage two, very different visions for america's future cnn presidential debates, thursday, june 27th, nine life i'd cnn and streaming un-backed. >> i thought i was sleeping. okay. but i was waking up so tired then i tried new z equals sleet nasal strips. they're four point with design opens my nose for maximum air flop, so i breathe better and we both free

2:13 am
welcome back, president biden, traveling to italy this morning ahead of the annual g7 summit that starts tomorrow, he'll be meeting with the leaders of france and germany both leaders reeling from heavy defeats in recent european parliamentary elections also, prime minister, british prime minister rishi sunak, he is in the grips of a political storm himself as they all face stiff domestic competition and similar challenges to staying in power i will earn your trust and i will prove to you that only a conservative government led by me will not put are harder and economic stability at risk. this is a situation that i cannot come to terms with the rise of nationalists, of demagogues is a danger for our nation. >> what do you think you need to accomplish are that debate stage i have to share ready says, remind people what he says and what i believe what he believed my journey me now cnn's max foster live from london. >> max, good morning to you as i watch this and think about
2:14 am
kind of what's unfolding across europe. but also here in the us well, politico wrote it. this way. let's, let's read from it, quote, the three liters or dramatically changing the plot and facing their issues head-on. basically, they argue that the establishment politicians in this case are trying to hold up a global order that is fraying, particularly because of challenges, doesn't totally apply to rishi sunak on the right. but for the germans, the french, and of course, biden here at home with trump it is trying to take on this kind of rising nationalism. how do you look at all of this and what's the conversation like heading into the g7? >> yeah. well, i think rishi sunak is facing the same thing because whilst the left free labor party is expected to win the election, is the fact that the far right reform party is
2:15 am
taken so many votes away from rishi sunak's conservative party. so while he is on the right and the other toura, center-left, they're all in the center and they're all facing a real threat from the right. the idea, i think bringing things forward, macron and sunak bringing on these elections much earlier than people expected. biden going into the debates many people expected, i think is this the theory that if you appeal to the rational side of people with serious policies, then you'll be able to argue that over a longer period of time before people actually go to the polls. but i think the right is very successfully. certainly here in europe, argue it's a bizarre one because they're basically arguing around cost of living, inflation. people can't afford things. so therefore, you need to hunker down stop immigration, stopped sending money to ukraine, stop paying for the environment, which is that idea of the cost of living
2:16 am
crisis has always been an argument. the left you successfully in the past and it's in another right is using it. so many people are seeing it really as a failure of the left in many ways, but it's also a big chunk allen's for the center ground yeah. >> no, it's it's a really interesting way to look at it. i mean, i would also say, i mean, one of the things that is big picture different here and challenging is the security situation, right? i mean the there's an isolationist tendency to the trump situation here. >> in the the us that quite frankly, really affects how the us will interact with nato, european security. >> i mean, there are russian warships doing drills 30 miles off the coast of florida that the us military is monitoring right now. and of course there's discussion about how this fits into the recent us decision to allow us weapons to be used across the border with russia. all of that kind of
2:17 am
looming over these leaders as they meet know absolutely this is probably says more about russia, doesn't it? >> this these ships than it does about the us. russia showing its global presence and it's coming through on everything, isn't it? whether right. but they've been trying to undermine they've been trying to kind of there's evidence that they've been trying to encourage and stoke some of this race wing political activity to try and split the west and reduce the security power across the board of the west now, yeah, it's all about creating divisions in the west so they can fill that vacuum with their own or authority in these ships are really a visualization all of that certainly in terms of isolationism, it does come into the right-wing debate here in europe as it does into america, because it's the, question about, do we support ukraine or do we not support ukraine? >> do we focus our own internal issues? so it all plays into
2:18 am
the same thing. so certainly in terms of putin's and she's wider strategy to assert themselves and fill the vacuum on the global stage. the right-wing helps because it brings all the western allies into a more national frame of mind if you like, and less involved in international affairs are very interesting. all right, max foster for us my than london max are grateful to have you. thank you alright. >> coming up next, senate democrats move to pass a supreme court ethics bill. >> those in stand a chance. plus the mystery winner of michigan's 800 $800,000,000 lottery jackpot finally revealed the greatest general in history his body and his tomb are missing but he's, you know the new season begins with the hunt for alexander the great's tomb, wednesday, june 19, and disk every industry by work play link relief, work

2:32 am
also was facing another trial on the horizon, hunter biden's tax trial is set to start on september 5th, joining me now, criminal defense attorney andrew tarkovsky. andrew, good morning to you. thank you so much for being here. can you talk us through what is i likely sentence in this case for the gun charge alone, it is not likely that he will see jail time if you run the federal sentencing calculator, you can get somewhere between about six to ten months as the recommended sentence. >> but that's well within the area of when judges give some sort of more probationary type of sentence that doesn't have jail time. the problem for hunter is that this conviction, even if it doesn't see jail time on its own, that combined with the september tax trial, if he's convicted of that, would most certainly result in some degree of jail time likely in the neighborhood of a number of years. this conviction would be used as an aggravate are in
2:33 am
that case as a factor that would increase the sentence under the guidelines really interesting, what what are the potential sentencing? what would he be looking at if he's convicted on these on these tax charges realistically, that put them at tenure. just give me a little bit more context on what what that could mean. >> this is an interesting tax case where he has paid his taxes since, but had gone on for a number of years, not only just not paying the taxes but also there's many kind of underlying issues with the way in which he was reporting the taxes, what he was saying he was paying the taxes on versus what he was actually spending his money on. so there are layers of those tax issues at hand. if he's convicted of everything, this is the case that could be generally in the single digits type of years of confinement, i would see a generally in the two to five range, but it's a very difficult number to give you a good idea of at this stage
2:34 am
since we don't know what he's convicted of and the federal sentencing guidelines which were once effectively mandatory, are now discretionary. and so it's more of a guidepost. this type of case, tho i think would be in the low single-digits of years of confinement still interesting that there could be repercussions from this case even if there's no jail time here that we could really dramatically affect the outcome there. so can we talk for a second about how the jury made this decision because we are actually and i'm interested to know why you think we're hearing so much from the jurors? >> as it's come out of that we saw some of spoken on camera to other networks this was what one told up politico. they said the defense's decision to call biden's daughter, naomi, to the stand, didn't help his case. i thought it was a mistake. the juror told reporters on tuesday, i think it was probably a strategy they shouldn't have done no daughters should have to testify against her dad at what do you make of what the jurors have come out and said about how they reached this verdict. >> well, i think it reflects
2:35 am
generally the idea that hunter biden was pretty dead to rights the evidence against him was so overwhelming that they had to get to this conviction, but we still see the jurors have sympathy for him. they see this. it sounds like as a relatively minor criminal offense, which it is in scope of federal law and federal criminal prosecutions that typically take place. but that's not necessarily for the jury to decide how serious is this offense. it's a question of what's the evidence actually show us and what's the law say? what the jury isn't essentially debating upon is the impact that's had to the family. the back to those around they seem to indicate this idea that they're hoping that he gets clean and sober go through his rehab. that's all this sort of sympathy that perhaps the defense kind of put forward hoping for a different outcome, whether that was an effort by the defense to actually have jury nullification. we now know that the jury themselves were immune
2:36 am
to that. they saw this for what it was calling it a more minor offense. but nonetheless, coming back with the verdict that they say was justice fired by the evidence all right. >> andrew truck ascii for us this morning, andrew. thank you very much for that. >> thank you it's good politics now the matchup is set. >> nevada's incumbent senator democrat jacky rosen will face republican sam brown in the general election this fall. nevada shaping up to be one of the most important states this election cycle as democrats look to hang out on to their razor thin control of the senate. when everyone votes in november, brown is a purple heart recipient and viewed as a rising star among republicans. >> and so it is tonight we continue to deliver health care to dream is not dead it was now, dad and the marriage of nine-member giovani jacky rosen begins to end tonight as we celebrate tonight, we're not celebrating my campaign for senate we celebrate our
2:37 am
campaign for nevada joining me now, do you see correspondent for the nevada independent, gabby birnbaum. >> gabby. good morning to you so this race, of course, at critical because the senate is literally on a knife edge, right? so every single race matters talk a little bit about me. first of all, he's clearly adopted this dark rhetoric that the trump campaign has about the state of america. this is not the optimistic city on a hill type of message that you would have heard from a ronald reagan era republican. >> but this does i do think there are some republicans here in washington who think that this was a good outcome. >> how did this play out? >> yeah. i mean, republicans, like he said, this is the senate, hangs on literally any one of these seats for democratic incumbents that could flip and republicans would have control the senate. so they've had this nevada matchups they're called for years in 2022 was the closest senate race in the country. and so as sam brown, this is who the nrsc, i'm the national republican senatorial

committee. this is who jaylen florida. they're publican governor of nevada. this is the guy they wanted and they got their guy last night by like 44 points in the primary. so it was never really a doubt but yeah. i mean, like you mentioned this, he talks a lot about we don't have an american dream anymore. it's an american nightmare. it reminds me a lot of the american carnage sort of trump first inaugural speech. and i think it shows that question for brown and for all of these challenges this will be how do you appeal to the base that's very pro-trump in states like nevada, where trump hasn't one and pulling this cycle shows maybe this is the year that he does it. but how do you sort of know that this is how you win a primary. this is how you appeal to people while also knowing in nevada it's the non-partisan voters, the independence who you really need to get to that 50% threshold. we've seen in, in some states that democratic senate, and this is actually backwards from what you sometimes see in other election cycles. but the democratic senate candidates seem to be running ahead of president biden. is that the case in nevada yes. so i mean, you've seen polls were biden's down by double-digits and rose up
2:39 am
like plus one i've seen polls where trump is up five and rosen's also up five. that'd be a level of ticket-splitting and i looked into this and the data does have a pretty significant history of ticket-splitting, but it wasn't a different time when that was just way more for comment. in o for bush won by three points and harry reid, one by 35 points or something. that's very raid specific situation would have been a little yeah. itself, but i think as politics has become more nationalized, as nevada sort of local political culture of boosting incumbents in the senate no matter what, as a small state as that's sort of given way to this national political discourse that's so hyper-partisan. i would be surprised if the split ends up being that big in my mind. who's a trump rozi and voter? it's hard to think of who this person might be. but yes, certainly rozi, like other candidates, is running ahead of biden ben. and so i think it'll be a question for brown now of how do i get these voters who think they're going to vote for trump are considering trump, but might be skeptical of me. how do i speak to them so let's i'm talking across. >> nevada was not the only state that help primers last night. we also had one in south
2:40 am
carolina and the primary that was being most closely watched was nancy mace, who of course, voted to oust former house speaker kevin mccarthy. and mccarthy had made it a project to try to get the second name on that screen over the finish line, catherine templeton challenged nancy mace in this it's a charleston area, south carolina district so mace came out on top here. how much of an embarrassment is that for mccarthy? >> i mean, look, i think it's curious to see what mccarthy we'll do next, right. those rumors that if trump wins, he could be chief of staff or something. i think it just shows that once you're out of congress, you're out of congress, right? here lewin's is somewhat limited in what you can do. he's been trying to behind the scenes enact some sort of revenge on the people who took him down. mace, i think particular really got under his skin because his office had tried to help her with her legislative priorities. there was a good long piece of slate. this week all about sort of her interesting political demeanor. but yeah, confused a lot of
2:41 am
people for sure. but i guess, i guess voters and south carolina's first district still felt good about it. so yeah, i do think for mccarthy, like i said, once you're out, you're out with congress yeah. >> i before i let you go, i want to touch on what we could see play out in the house today. there is some reporting that we have here at cnn that there are a handful of house republicans who are privately voiced concerns about a plan to hold merrick garland in contempt of congress. but they did announce last night they're going to go forward with this vote today. what do you expect on the floor? >> i think that'll be interesting. i mean, the fact that there's all these reports, the reports that they might have pulled it, the fact that there budding the vote on the floor, i mean, this is not a republican whip team that's been uber successful in exactly where the votes are. so i don't think anyone will be surprised if it were to fail typically, i think but the moderates have been upset about something they usually do, keep it off the floor. they're pretty open with leadership about their concerns. they're not right. the freedom caucus, i'm not trying to wreak havoc on the floor. so the fact that they are bringing is a floor or
2:42 am
i mean, we'll see i think this is the closer we get to the election, the more and more people are not going to want to take tough votes, particularly on such hyper-partisan things like rice this is a tough thing for some of the more moderate, moderate republicans in the house. all right, gabby, thank you very much for your time appreciate it. i come up next year, talks to end the war in gaza in serious doubt this morning after a response from hamas plus the man is facing a must wins situation in dallas tonight, which report reviews game three coming up violent burst would liev schreiber sunday at night on cnn you know what's brilliant think about it. >> boring is the unsung catalyst for bolt. what straps bold do a rocket hurdles and into space, or boring makes vacations happen, early retirements possible, and startups start off because it's smart, dependable, and steady all words you want from your bank for nearly 160 years, pnc bank has been brilliantly boring.

2:47 am
ceasefire and hostage deal to end the war in gaza, the negotiations were thrown into doubt last night when and israeli official said but a hamas response to the latest proposal was quote, a rejection but a diplomatic source telling cnn this morning that hamas is neither accepted nor rejected the deal. >> hamas leadership quickly pushed back, calling the attempt by israel, calling in an attempt by israel to back out of the proposal. talks are expected to continue through qatari and egyptian mediators in coordination with the us to see if an agreement can be reached. here was blinken yesterday before hamas is response everyone has said yes except for hamas and if hamas doesn't say yes, then this is clearly plea on them all right. >> told me not to discuss the un global affairs analyst kim dozer. kim, good morning to you. thank you so much for being here. >> are reporting. is that hamas did submit a response proposing
2:48 am
amendments to the israeli proposal, adjustments to the or adding a timeline for a permanent ceasefire. and with thrall from gaza, this there seems to be an awful lot of fog around where each side stands on this proposal at all. can you kind of try to help us understand clearly where are the israelis on this? are they a definitive yes. and what this means from hamas that we saw yesterday today there's one key part of this peace deal that the ceasefire deal that each side keeps trying to change hamas wants to include some sort of permanent ceasefire in the deal what they have, what they've been offered right now is phases six weeks was submit exchange, and a temporary ceasefire that then becomes permanent after some negotiations midway through they don't want that the israelis meanwhile benjamin netanyahu government he cannot
2:49 am
say yes to a deal that has a permanent ceasefire in it because that will instantly dissolve his government. the hard-right members of his coalition have threatened to pull out if he signs up any deal that has a permanent ceasefire in it. so that's why you've got a lot of stuff decided on the edges. but this one key point hamas wants to be able to survive and keep fighting and netanyahu's political survival is based on making sure hamas can't do that. therein lies the crux of the matter so what is the way out of that? but it's very hard to see it way out of that. >> that's why the original deal as the white house had shared with the world, has these phases where you get a bunch of the hostages back, you get prisoner exchanges. so that was sweetening it for the palestinian side that they get some of their hardline prisoners out and then you use that momentum of that progress to get through the second stage of the deal. so that perhaps
2:50 am
netanyahu could then go back to his hardline coalition and go back to israel haley public and say see, i got all so many of the hostages out. now, it's time to have an off-ramp for this, but you got to agree to the first part to get to that second kim, let's talk about the sort of broader tensions in the region because we have seen slit, escalating back-and-forth between israel and lebanon. the washington post says it's a war that's unfolding in slow motion. and rockets are being launched from lebanon toward israel. how concerned should we be at this point? but this is going to tip into something more significant all along, it seems that the overall strategy of iran, which is supporting hezbollah and supporting hamas, has been to turn the tension up when israel is already on the
2:51 am
back foot, just to keep exhausting its army the israeli army has having to go back to certain parts of gaza that it had said it had cleared already, and all of a sudden up in the north, there's an uptick in fighting. >> it's stretching and exhausting the army and pointing out to israel that if you want to keep going on these two fronts, it's going to cost you more in manpower and eventually in tax dollars because they don't have enough of a standing army to keep up this fight at this point. and that has put pressure on the israeli people to think about, do we? want to be doing this forever? and what that would cost? >> yeah. i mean, and what does that mean politically for netanyahu? i mean, is he coming under pressure from people? i mean, obviously israel israel as conscription mandatory service in their country. that's got to put some pressure on him. know, there's local israel issue specifically regarding that secular israelis are upset that for the most
2:52 am
part, very religious israelis are allowed to opt out of military service. >> and there's been a fight to make more of them find, to find some way to draft more of them. into the ongoing fight. and that has been working its way through the israeli knesset but the hard-right members of netanyahu's coalition have said, if you force, are religious people to fight we will pull out. so again, netanyahu's caught between the secular folks. so he needs to win the next election and the coalition members he needs to stay in government cheerful. kim toes, you're for us this morning. thank you. i really appreciate your time. >> all right. so now for sports, do or die in dallas for the maths tonight the nba finals, andy scholes has this morning's police report and good morning. good morning. case. it's only game three, but the mass they have to win excuse me, they have to win tonight because notes, even me hey, history while struggling, i've ever come back from an o3

deficit. i the big news given out yesterday is the celtics announced that star center kristaps prison thank suffer what the team calls a rare injury to his left leg. he's not questionable fourth, tonight's game per zinc has said he felt something happened during game too, but he's gonna do every you think he can to play with or without presenting as the celtics or they're treating game three like a must-win despite having a 2-0 lead in the series almost got to play like you now know to, rather than up and that's hard to do but you gotta go into that mind frame that focuses like now, we our plan like that have been down o2 before lost a series won a series. >> so i know what it takes i gave three tonight 830 eastern brahma dallas, us open. >> meanwhile, it sees off tomorrow from pinehurst at the big question is, can anyone beat world number one, scottie scheffler. he's won five of his last eight tournaments, including the masters. the worst he's done since since
2:54 am
march was tied for eighth at the pga championship and he was arrested before second round of that tournament. those charges were dropped. scheffler knows all eyes are gonna be on him tomorrow, but it doesn't bother them at all i mean, as far as a target on my back, even if there was there's not really much that we can do in the game of golf. >> most of it is against the dollar of course, i'm point against yourself. so target on my back done really, i don't really feel it and then i don't really think about it much. >> what is the most impressive to you about what he's been able to accomplish so far? for this year. >> the fact that the only thing that took him from winning a golf tournament was going into a jail cell for an ar usa basketball's announce the official a women's roster for the upcoming paris olympics. >> and caitlin clark eyes indeed not a part of it. the selection committee said they were aware of the outside noise and pressure to select clark, but she did not have the experience of other players. maybe they just want international experience because diana taurasi, breanna stewart, sylvia fouls, and candace parker we're all on
