command forces on june 6 in syria, as you said, and according to central command, they did kill a senior isis official who they say was a facilitator and his death will therefore prevent or at least impede isis from planning and facilitating future attacks. >> now, i think it's important to note here that the us has continued to go after isis militants in iraq and syria, and africa really consistently over the last several months. in fact, just from january to march, roughly 18 isis-k fighters, according to us central command, have been killed in airstrikes conducted by the the us and its coalition partners in the area. and an additional 27 had been detained in syria and 36 detained in iraq. so they're really continuing to go after isis here in the region because they say isis has continued to play lot to terror attacks against the us homeland, but also it's important to note that often and this happens, the us will conduct airstrikes against militants saying that they are

militants when in fact they accidentally kill civilians. and that happened just last year in may of 2023 when us central command said that it was targeting getting an ice, an al-qaeda operative. and in fact, they ended up killing a farmer in syria. and of course we all remember that botch drone strike in kabul in 2021 when the us was withdrawing and said they were targeting isis operatives there. when in fact they killed a family of ten civilians. and so well isis does a while, the us does say it's going after these isis militants, these al-qaeda operatives it is always important to ask the question of how they can be short. these are in fact al-qaeda and terrorist operatives and not civilians. in this case, they say there's no indication that civilians were hard hi, i'm sarah for tran. thank you for that. another hour. i've seen a new central starts right now it, is like cramming for a test, but it's still not

making the honor roll, but the future of the country, if not the world, we've got new reporting on how president biden and donald trump are preparing for the historic debate on cnn. >> now, just one week away. an entire town is 7,000 forced to evacuate. first, it was the fires now the raging floods, a dangerous situation is getting worse and the ten commandments the ones in the bible about religion or history, it might come down to that after one state just required they be placed at every public school classroom. >> kate is out. i'm john berman with sarah signer and this is cnn news central it is crunch time for the presidential candidates, just seven days from the first presidential debate right here on cnn, it will be historic and a couple of ways first it's the first debate between a sitting president and former president.

and it is the earliest ever general election debate with the clock ticking. both president biden and donald trump are strategising. i exactly what those say on that debate stage later today, president biden traveling to camp david we're the white house says he's going over potential questions and preparing for personal attacks. and trump insider say he's been working with his vice presidential contenders an outside allies with preparations and over-drive a new fox news poll coming out this morning shows president biden with a two-point edge over donald trump. that's well within of course the margin of error, but a change from may we've got team coverage this morning. cnn's arlette saenz, and steve contorno joining us this morning or not, we're going to begin with you. what is the president doing to prepare for this crucial? and most early first debate while sarah president biden will depart, rehoboth beach, delaware a bit later tonight and head straight to camp

david, where he will huddled with his top advisers for the coming days to prepare for this debate. >> one key goal for president biden it's trying to paint donald trump as chaotic and divisive and tried to remind voters of what a second trump term could look like. now it's expected that they will begin with some informal discussions going over a topic. areas that could come up for discussion. ways to answer some of these questions before transitioning into those full 90 minute mock debates, aides have been putting together binders, running through some of the areas that could be raised in the debates, ways that the president could answer those questions and biden as well known for really drilling in on a lot of those preparations and offering feedback extensively a to his aides. now that he is going to be joined by a team of top advisers that includes former white house chief of staff, ron klain, who has handled biden's debate prep in the past and is taking on a

similar similar role. this time there will also be bruce read, his deputy chief of staff, who really has been focusing on trying to identify a lot of trump's policy going through hours of speeches, things that he said to try to prepare for this debate. there's also the possibility that the president's personal lawyer, bob bauer, could potentially play trump in a mock debate, but so much of what the focus will be as trying to find ways to hold trump accountable noble on that debate stage. as you mentioned, biden could also prepare for some personal attacks that could come his way. but really advisers believed that when voters hear more of what trump would bring in a second term, that that is something that will turn them off heading into the november election. this debate will be a high-stakes moment for president biden to present his own case, but also trying to make that contrast with trump some are saying i'm make or break moment potentially for these candidates, steve, how's donald trump preparing for this debate sir on like president biden, donald trump is not bunkering down to study over the next few days. he has a fundraiser tonight and ohio, he

goes to philadelphia on saturday to hold a rally, nor is he holding mock debate sessions like biden or like he has done in the past. instead, he is he has been having these informal prep sessions with some close advisors, including think some of the people he is considering for it to be his running mate, senator jd vance of ohio, for example, senator marco rubio. he has been meeting with his campaign manager, susie wiles and chris lacivita, as well as people who have advised them in the past. kellyanne conway, stephen miller, richard grinnell, and they have been preparing the former president on all bunch of issues they expect to come up at this first debate. crime, immigration, the border, abortion, as well as preparing them to answer questions about that. somebody attacks that they expect from president biden on issues like january 6, then some of these criminal convictions over the past few weeks and trump is interestingly has been sort of leveling expectations heading into this debate. listen to what he said in racine, wisconsin on tuesday is anybody

going to watch the debate he's going to be so pumped up, he's going to be pumped up. >> you know, all that stuff that was missing about a month ago from the white house. they'll probably be negotiating with three people, but that's okay. i've done that before. >> i'll be debating three people instead of one, instead of one, half of a person trump and his allies have been spending so much time both criticizing biden as, as too old to hold office, and hyping expectations for this debate. >> it's interesting there to see him there. sarah and john sort of level expectations going into thursday will be interesting as they, steve contorno and arlette saenz. thank you so much. jake tapper, of course. and dana bash moderating the cnn presidential debate live from atlanta beginning 9:00 p.m. eastern and streaming on max as well. john ryder, an entire town forced to evacuate as floods. now tear through areas just it's ravaged by fires. >> and the new warning about

devastated new mexico has risen. as new flash flooding threats now, target burned areas there overnight officials confirmed a second victim was found as new images of charred debris shows just utter devastation. >> those used to be homes, 6-year-old patrick pearson was not able to escape his family understandably in complete shock he was trying to get away from the fire as fast as he could, you know, but with a broken leg in a brace using a walker trying to carry what you could it's heartbreaking to know that he didn't make it to know that he was trying to run for his life, trying to get away from the fire was just awful joining me now is new mexico congressmen gave vasquez

you ended up touring the devastated district with the governor yesterday. >> sir, can you just explain to us? what you saw as you were going through the area well, what we've seen is horrible devastation in one of southern new mexico's most important communities in both economically but also culturally. >> and so we received a briefing alongside decide new mexico governor michelle lujan grisham and met with the new critical incident management team and right now, the most important thing is preventing the loss of life. what we've seen is that a lot of folks are reluctant to leave their homes there will be loss of property that is no question. but but we want to prevent is the loss of life. now, conditions here are very uncertain. wind patterns continue to change. and we're unsure about the direction of the fire at this point. what we are sure of is that people are suffering but we're mobilizing quickly every resource possible local, state, and federal to

make sure that people leave their homes and have the opportunity to save their lives, their livestock, and their pets. >> yeah. we've had two people breakdown on camera just talking about this one you saw the son of mr. pierson. they're talking about the fact that he was he had a broken leg and you couldn't get out of the way the fire and he lost his dad. and another who was talking about his home. they did leave. but what can you tell residents who their homes or everything? it's fair place of peace what do you tell them to get them to go when these fires are raging, this happens all the time where people stay because they're trying to protect what they've worked for their whole lives well, the mescalero apache indian reservation is one of the most historic communities here in new mexico. and really across the country. and so it's even more difficult for people to leave their homes or historic homes that have been around for hundreds of years. and so my conversation

yesterday with trump i will president or podria was that we should mobilize all local resources to ensure that the laws are being enforced, that people are checking on people's homes to make them realize just how important that is. now, i spoke to an 82-year-old veteran for mescalero yesterday, who was at one of the shelters and community centers. and kept talking and about wanting to go back home and as he held back tears, he thought about the property he might be losing that he'd be looking at passed down for future generations but the most important thing right now is that law enforcement does their job and that we cooperate in an inter agency way along with the bureau of indian affairs, the state government. and my job is to make sure that we make sure that people take this seriously because this will be one of new mexico's most devastating fires i do want to ask you, were looking at wildlife there as well. and of course there is people's pets as well that are

dealing with this at the same time, but i do want to ask you if you think this is going to get worse before it gets better. and i ask you that because of climate change, because we are starting to see these fires earlier and earlier burning hotter and hotter. what have you experienced there in new mexico well, yesterday i had the chance to tour the livestock holdings center, as well as a temporary humane shelter for pets that have been displaced. >> there's a really good plan in place. in fact, donations have come in as far as farmington, new mexico colorado, arizona, both for pet food for hey we have currently the facilities within the mescalero apache reservation to be able to hold both people's domestic pets livestock, and as far as the wildlife concern, i look, there's going to be a loss of wildlife in the area, and this is a, this is an area that is rich in wild life. everything from bull elk to mule deer. >> but we have a large enough lincoln national forests that we do believe some of those animals will be migrating and

too much safer areas unfortunately, fire is something that we will have to continue to deal with. >> it is always been a constant here in new mexico but climate change is only exacerbating both the amount of fires that we have. the two largest actually just last year, the amounts of heat and the unpredictability as these fires continued to rage on and so it's going to continue to be an issue and it takes an immense amount of reach he sources that's why it's so important for agencies like femur to respond to these incidents quickly, to make sure to compensate and find housing for folks quickly. and frankly, the federal government, it has to do a much better job of responding to these fires. this is the new normal. we have to get used to it and congress and the administration has to act as soon as we spot these fires and see the potential for the destruction that they can cause. >> it. speaking of the administration give me some sense his changing gears here. >> what you need to hear from

president biden during the debate that is coming up in just seven days well, look, i think president biden needs to focus on the things that people care about right here at home things like these catastrophic wildfires that are happening across the west. but most importantly when we talk about people's livelihoods the economy is the number one issue in my district. that's what i've been focused on. >> we need to make sure that we get people back into good paying jobs that we remind folks that the dollars that have been spent and are being spent and communities like ruidoso like las cruces are albuquerque, new mexico that are now creating jobs that are putting welders back to work pipe fitters back to work, carpenters back to work. >> are jobs that we can count on in the future and that they're good paying jobs and that the american people are going to be protected going into the future and that they will have futures that their kids will have jobs, and that folks will be able to go to the grocery store and to the gas pump and be able to see some

relief that is what the next four years of this administration needs to look like. and i'm focused strictly on my district. there's a lot of needs here from agricultural reform in the farm bill that we've been working on today to support and changes for our military service, airmen and women at places like holman air force base so we need to hear from president that he's going to support rural districts, just like ours i in the meantime, i'm going to continue to make sure that the bills that have i've introduced passed congress because without congress the president can't do much without executive action. >> and so congress needs to do its job. we need to act. >> folks need to stop complaining on both sides of the aisle and we need to come together in a bipartisan way and get the things done for the american people that they're expecting us to do. congressman gave vasquez. thank you so much and good luck to you with the fires there that are burning really, really, really dangerous lay there. john wright, the deadliest corporate

smoking the cabin is a pretty rare, though can make you sick. worst-case could be incapacitating the procedure here is to get on the ground as quickly as possible. this issue really just coming to light now, signals yet another possible issue with boeing 737 max line a model that's been dogged by design and quality control issues. >> this stems from two incidents on southwest airlines flights were one of the planes, two engines was hit by a bird in february boeing then good morning southwest and american airlines about the issue. >> and in turn, those airlines warn their pilots. and here's what the alert said. american airlines total its pilots, boeing's received two reports of cfm leap-1b engine failures following large bird strikes on takeoff and initial climb that could cause oil to burn southwest airlines then told its pilot let's that could cause the immediate presence of smoke and fumes entering the passenger cabin through the air conditioning system. now company that makes the engine itself, cfm international, told

me the engine has met bird ingestion certification requirements performed as designed though the birds in these incidents were very large, much larger than ms required to be given the blessing by regulators. now the federal aviation administration says it's still working with boeing on this investigation into these incidents and will determine if there any new actions that need to be taken. >> remember here that bird strikes are pretty common. >> most of them occur in the early morning and sunset when birds are most active 90% of them happened your airport. so that means takeoff and landing the thing is the most risky time. the faa recorded 17,000 bird strikes in 2022, although very few of them as serious as these two that prompted these alerts to pilots. john, there is a name for what is left over of the bird after there was a bird strike, it is called snark and is often studied he'd by researchers to make sure that they can better mitigate bird strikes and keep the danger to you on board airplanes down. >> all right. pete man teen for us this morning looking at these pictures, right now, you can see why it would be an issue for these planes. thank

nine live on cnn and streaming none backs and exactly one week president biden, donald trump facing off and a pivotal debate right here on cnn. >> what did the polls tell us about how americans feel about these two men as we head into it, we've seen a lot of polls from this gentleman right here, cnn senior reporter, senior data reporter, chief data, whatever you've got a lot of types of friend harry entered my buddy. there was so as we go into this debate, what is the national landscape? >> what is the national landscape? all right last night, fox news came out with a paul had biden plus two hello, within the margin of error, but you'll see there's a bit of a trend line from the beginning of the year where trump was plus two in that poll. so biden gaining a little bit. but of course, i don't like to rely on just one pole. let's take a look at the aggregate to see if we have that same trend line. yeah, we do, sarah trump had a small advantage again, within the margin of error back in

february. >> but look now we're tied an aggregate, so i think overall the big takeaway here is it's a very close race nationally width no clear leader that should surprise no one, right? i mean, we've been talking about this back-and-forth back-and-forth. i do want to ask you about what we've been hearing from former president trump, who has been saying all manner of things it's about the cognition of president biden and lowering really expectations from people who are going to be watching this debate. yeah. >> i thought that when folks were asked who will win the first debate that trump would have a major advantage on this issue. >> but according to new fox news ball, in fact, only by a five-point margin, two people expect that trump we'll beat biden the first way i expected to be much larger. i think a lot of joe biden fans expect to be much larger air go. he could easily exceed those expectations and perhaps getting the pulse. but in fact, it's just trumped by five. that's not much different where we were going into the first debate back in 2020 and september, where trump was favorite by just one point in a

usc paul. so basically fleet debate expectations here are bad in line with where they were four years ago. sarah trump with a small advantage of course, i will note that biden easily won in the post debate, paul's back in 2020, we'll see if the same thing occurs right here. now, what you think before and what you think after can be divergent for sure. >> i want to talk to you about the electoral college. some americans love it some do not. what is happening when it comes to that? >> yeah, i think donald trump donald trump fans love it based upon what they saw back in 2016. so this is the road to to 70 and it's biden's best path based on the polls and past results. and basically, if you want to look here, it's these yellow states have pennsylvania, michigan wisconsin, and where are the poles right now here, look how tight they are here to point leaf for trump in pennsylvania tide of michigan, tynan, wisconsin, if he carries all three of these, biden does he gets to exactly 270 electoral votes, quite a thing going in this first debate, a lot on the line. >> what you need to win. thank you so much. i appreciate it.

done. >> all right with us now strategic communications expert lee carter and democratic strategists, julie ridgeon ski. julie, we were looking at those numbers right there from harry, you saw four point swing in the fox duple a to point swing in the aggregate. that's some movement, not a lot, but a little movement. can you point to a y here? >> well, two things. i think one is obviously trump there's a convicted felon now, which he wasn't a few months ago and independent voters really don't like that in their president. the second i think is that public sentiment about the economy's always a lagging indicator the economy has been doing well. voters haven't believed that it's been doing well, but now they're finally starting to see the effects of it in there. their own pocketbooks. and i think because of that, it's starting to really trend for the democrats and providing, i don't have the number in front of you, but in that fox news poll, the approval of biden on the economy isn't like a 35 or 36%, which doesn't sound good record high, but it's still record high in that fox news who's poll lee, what do you see going on here in these numbers really mean i'm really looking at is the independent voter. >> and i think that's gonna be

the key to this election. in particular, i could female voters and the shift in female independent voters, it's been ten points, nine point advantage to biden on the independence as a whole. and i think that is something to really look at. a lot of people are saying, how are people is changing their mind at this point in the game? >> i think what you're seeing is that support for joe biden. >> he does a little bit soft and the support, there's, there's some people were tepid about supporting donald trump because the issues that matter most to them about the economy and immigration are important but when they look at what's happened with with, with, with his convicted status, when they look at what's happening, otherwise, i'm just not sure that i can vote for donald trump. the other thing that i think is really important as we're starting to hear job, i'm talk more about these potential to supreme court justice vacancies that are going to come up in the next term. >> i think that it's incredibly important to independent voters in particular female voters, who are going to go out and vote on women's rights. and i think that's something that donald trump is going to really

struggle with. and it's a big, important issue that job in really needs to go after the interesting, again, we can't know for sure what is behind a little bit of a movement in the numbers, but the criminal conviction is the one thing that's happened here. maggie haberman was on with anderson last night instead, what she expects to see in this debate is that president biden will mention the fact that donald trump is now a convicted felon in that trump will respond. this is based on maggie's reporting by bringing up hunter biden's convictions, how wise do you think that is? >> i don't think it's a great strategy for two reasons. one is if he thinks he's going to tweak biden's by doing that. i'm pretty sure that biden's ready for it. they've been prepping for a long time for it. >> the second is looked a lot of americans have struggled with these issues that hunter biden struggled with a lot of parents have children who are alcoholics or addictive drugs or have other issues. >> the one thing about joe biden that i think everybody understands is he really loves his son. and as a father, if he conveys that love for his son on the debate stage, i actually think it's a net positive for him because it's the same struggle that a lot of parents

have looked. i wouldn't disown my son if something happened to him that was really awful. and i think most parents wouldn't either. and i think that's something that biden will convey and of trump goes after hunter i think it will be huge, unforced error i think there's a little question li that president biden can be heard at a personal level by discussion about hunter biden. >> but is there a way to hurt him politically on the debate stage on the issue of hunter biden i think it's really interesting because if hunter biden was not guilty, i think then it could really have hurt joe biden in many ways that two-tiered system of justice argument could have been exploited, i think in this way, donald trump should probably stay away from hunter biden entirely. >> and i think some of the messaging dan already where he says, you know what, hunter biden isn't relevant, what really is relevant is some of the bigger concerns that we have about about joe biden himself. and i think that's a smarter strategy. and if i were donald trump rather than going after hunter biden at all, what i would be doing is leaning into some of the messaging that

he's been doing. that's working interestingly enough, where he's he's wearing his conviction is sort of almost a badge of honor saying aye. i i'm doing this is like patriotic duty. i'm gonna fight for the constitution. i will somehow, and i'm not sure that i quite fully understand and appreciate it yet is that voters are finding that what he's willing to fight for us and we've got to fight for him and he's almost like a martyr. in this way. and that messaging is actually getting his base galvanized. and i think that's where he should focus. i think he should stay away from hunter biden. i agree with julie lee card jeweler. does he great to have you both here? thank you so much. and of course, just one week until history, the earliest ever general election presidential debate, right here on cnn, moderated by jake tapper and dana bash live in atlanta, 9:00 p.m. eastern on thursday. and of course, streaming on max i cannot wait to be sued. well, governor of louisiana goading groups who

arrested just this morning, 4:35 a.m. and booked into miami-dade county jail the charges, according to the the jail documents, here are two trespassing property after a warning, and also disorderly intoxication. we can also see that it's $650 bond has been submitted, so he is going through this process of eventually getting released here from jail. we do know that travis scott is on tour, right? now. the circus maximus tour, and he was slated to be in another lins could still be going there here in the next eight days to begin, the european arm of his tour. now cnn has reached out to reps. for scott to get more details into what happened here and for comment. and sarah, it's also notable that this comes just days after justin timberlake's own arrest for dwi in new york's we have superstars here with legal woes isabella results eight, you got that right.

>> thank you so much. i know you'll be watching this and getting more details as they become available to you. of course, we had justin timberlake, who had just been arrested on dwi on long island. so we will be watching that case as well. appreciate your time. john launch this morning, dr. sanjay gupta, on call to answer your medical questions. >> the topic is also timers disease, the focus of his documentary, the last all timers patient, which is now streaming on max. here with this now cnn, chief medical correspondent and neurosurgeon, dr. sanjay gupta. sanjay, great to see you. so this question comes from gita in houston asking, can daily mental exercises are doing wars with friends or paper-based crossword puzzles reduce your odds of getting dementia yeah, there's a lot of questions about this and people often use brain training exercises with the hopes of reducing their risk the truth is, there's not a lot of data on this to suggest that actually reduces your risk of dementia. what crossword puzzles and word

games are probably really good at? is making you better at crossword puzzles and word games. what you think of it like this, what you need to be doing to really build what's called cognitive resilience in your brain is doing different sorts of activities, taking up a new hobby, learning a new instrument, learning a new language, learning to paint, for example. so something that you can do that's a hobby that preferably billy includes some sort of motor components, something with your hands. those are gonna be better things, instruments and painting for example, the best evidence john, interestingly, is really around movement. when we are moving, when brisk movement, you tend to generate more growth of new brain cells if you do that with somebody else, cultivating that connection at the same time, even better. so john, for you, take a brisk walk with carry your wife that is probably gonna do more for your brain in the future than doing a crossword puzzle she walks through fast, though i'm always trying to catch up. >> and so it makes my brain agitated. but i so jesse from

atlanta asks, do you suggest those that have a family history of alzheimer's get the screening test that you took as a baseline which was really remarkable to see or at what age or not isn't necessary. >> yeah, this is this is really interesting and i want to be clear that what we saw in the document and what we showed in the documentary, i was part of a clinical trial, richard isaacson is preventive neurologist who sort of looking at how do we prevent all timers down the road? i got to tell you the testing is sophisticated. i mean, it's a lot of it is cognitive testing, like quick john, answer, name as many words starting with the letter t as you can in the next 60 seconds. the longer the word, the more unusual word, the better. now, do the same thing for animals it's really interesting, but they also test your bone density and things like that. if you're trying to figure out, look, is this age-related versus all timers? there's a list on the screen here of the ways to think about it, forgetting the name of a family member that would be

concerning for getting the name of acquaintance, not as much. so i always say like forgetting your car keys that's that's normal. that's age-related. looking at those car keys for an extra second and i can't remember what these are for. what are these keys for exactly? that would be more concerning. >> so these are the ways to think about it. >> the testing that i had was pretty sophisticated. there is a website called retain your brain retain your brain.com. it is a digital sort of clinical trial that is ongoing. so much of what we showed in the documentary can now be done online. so i think it's going to be more available to the masses i got to say saudi these questions and your answers are so relatable. so i really appreciate you doing them, liza from north carolina wants to know my mother and grandmother had alzheimer's. should i be tested for it? and this is a frequent question you get for people, the predisposition issue yeah. >> look, i'm a fan of testing, i think for a long time there was two concerns one, the testing wasn't that good and

two, what are you gonna do about it right now? it's, it's sort of preordained. i can't act on it, so it's just going to cause me worry and anxiety. i think both those things are changing. the testing is getting better and it's becoming clearer there are things you can do about it. first of all, keep in mind quarter of people who have alzheimer's had do have some sort of family history but that also means 75% of people who have alzheimer's don't. so there's a relationship here, but it's not a really strong relationship. having said that, getting your genetic testing, i think could be important because i think there are ways to act upon that now. but also keeping in mind that there is a strong relation between the body and the brain so all these modifiable risk factors that you see on the screen, those are really important to control. we typically think of those as related to heart disease. but now we know they are strongly related to dementia as well. >> one of the one of the ones i'll highlight john number two, they're hearing loss it's very interesting how many people come in with their families saying, i think my loved one is developing signs of dementia do a hearing test

and you realize that in fact, it's been undiagnosed hearing problems for a long time that could be contributing to those symptoms. >> so don't jump to the diagnosis of dementia realized or modifiable risk factors. and i think at this zero point, it's good, it's good information to go ahead and get the testing i'd say this is all great information, sanjay, it's empowering because there are things you can do. >> and i think so often people feel helpless in the face of alzheimer's. i hope people pay attention to what you're saying today and yesterday. great stuff god to john. thank you. >> thank you very much. and you could submit your questions using the qr code on the screen. you may see them answered in the next on call with dr. sanjay gupta. >> sir, when i was great, john and sanjay gupta alright. louisiana. now, the first state in the country to require the ten commandments to be displayed in every public school classroom including university governor jeff landry is calling the law one of his favorites. but it's already of course, catching heat from several liberty groups states,

senator royce do plus joins us now from new orleans. thank you, sir, so much for joining us. i just first wanted to get your reaction to this law, which would have the ten commandments on the wall up for first-graders all the way up to college actually kindergarteners, all the way up to k12. >> so if extreme, it's exclusionary it undermines religious freedoms. it's unnecessary. >> and it's lately unconstitutional. this is not what we should be doing. and i want to say that as someone who was a christian i was raised catholic. learn the ten commandments, but the public classroom is just simply not somewhere we should be mandating the display of the ten commandments always what i guess the question is, what happened to the separation of church and state? the governor calling this his one of his favorite laws well this was clearly an is clearly part of

an extreme right-wing christian nationalist agenda, where it seems as though the governor and my colleagues who pushed this law did it with the intent to be sued into challenge the right to put this kind of material in classrooms. >> i think the intent was to bring it up to the supreme court where they are seeking to push this right-wing extreme christian nationalist agenda this has already been decided at the supreme court. this was trial are 40 years ago, where it will say clearly that we have a separation of church and state. and not only do we have a separation of church and state, the selection of the interpretation of the ten commandments is also problematic because the virgin and the language that's been selected to be displayed is not one that everybody agrees upon. so it's just incredibly problematic. like i said, it flies in the face of religious freedom. it flies in the face of the constitution. you don't

have to be a constitutional scholar to know this is clearly on constitutional. but even more so it's just unnecessary. there's language in a bill that requires it to be clearly legible and easily readable. but. it's ignoring the fact that nearly 40% of kindergarteners are not reading at grade level the real focus should be emphasizing teaching kids how to read and write. >> not indoctrinating them. >> and with these, these type of moral agenda. and i find it interesting that they the people who are pushing this are the same people who say that we shouldn't be trying to indoctrinate our children in classrooms. so i find it very hypocritical find it very problematic. >> we have a teacher shortage. i think this is going to contribute to making it more difficult to hire teachers, i think is going to make it more problematic and it's going to make many kids it's feel excluded. >> again, i say this as a christian is someone who learned the ten commandments growing up, i was raised catholic and i don't have an

issue with the taking, man is my issue is the issue of many including those who i'm subgraph to the take a man, this is that it is clearly unconstitutional. >> it's unnecessary. it's extremis, and it flies in the face of religious freedom i do want to ask you, what you will be telling families and students who are of a another faith. for example, if they're of the buddhist space, this is not a part of their faith. how, how are you going to explain this and how well you think teachers are going to have to start explaining this to the students yeah. >> again, that's why this is just really problematic. i think that's the question that the government needs to answer. i think that's a question that those who are pushing this and who pass this legislation need to answer. because i oppose this legislation from the outset because of those students that you just described, because of those families that you just described because of those teachers that you just described it. let's take it a

step further. in the ten commandments he clearly says dow shall not kill. well, i think the bill should have been amended to say, now shall not kill except for when the louisiana department of corrections is carrying out capital punishment because again and say folks were pushing for the ten commandments to be displayed. also, say folks who are pushing for the death penalty. so how do you reconcile that? how do you explain to a first grader to say now shall not kill, except it instances when louisiana department of corrections is seeking to carry out capital punishment is just really problematic. and i think it's taking us further in the wrong direction as a state there are other commandments like that will not covered by neighbor's wife. >> and for the kindergartener be asked about this? what do what does a teacher do? as they go forward? do you expect another great question? >> this same legislative session. they pass another great question, the same legislative session legislation

was passed saying that you cannot discuss sex or sexuality or anything of that nature. so how do you reconcile those two things? it's just really problematic, very hypocritical, and just unnecessary and exclusionary is going to cause many more problems than it's actually going to solve. and it's going to, we're going to waste taxpayer dollars as a state defending this court. the states probably going to lose all to prove a point into manufacturer culture wars you. sound like you're worried about the money. it's going to take, but also the expectation the hope that it goes to the supreme court and the supreme court because of its makeup, ends up ruling in its favor. you do not see that happening though, do you? >> i believe that is the intent that it goes to the supreme court, but it's certainly my hope that it is struck down. i think that even with this conservative supreme court, they will see that this is clearly unconstitutional and you've seen some some, some changes in terms of the

decisions that have been made, and some inferences that there should be a moral basis for christianity. but i'm just, i just think this as a bridge too far. you open this door. then where does it stop? if you say that this is permissible, then i think then gives the state to now regulate churches and church it into the state can come in and say, well, church x and charged why you're not teaching the right version of the ten commandments. you're not teaching the right version of scripture. i think that's a problem you have from a constitutional standpoint. if the supreme court were to deem this acceptable? and constitutional. so i think it's a very slippery slope, is very extreme. that's why i've never supreme court will likely strike it down louisiana state senator ron roy. sorry, du plessis. thank you so much for walking us through what's happening in your state right now don't so first he told advertisers to go f themselves. now, elon musk is trying to sweet talk advertisers back to

x, which was twitter cnn senior media reported all over darcy here with the details. oliver yeah, i'm john, this is quite the advertiser metamorphosis for elon musk he was at cannes lions yesterday trying to convince advertisers major advertisers, which have fled his platform x in droves to come back and he's pitching this as a platform that is brand safe. but of course we know that there are major problems with x and namely elon musk's own behavior john, he promotes conspiracy theories. he uses his platform, has the most followed person on that site to launch ugly attacks on his critics. he smears the news media on and on. it goes. and so i think that's the problem he's going to have when he's trying to convince these advertisers to come back to the site, his own behavior is that toxic behavior that they don't really want their brands, that they carefully curated to be associated with oliver darcy. great to see you this morning. thank you so much for being
