don't heat foods and plastic containers avoid plastic water bottles. and your general home environment, dust and vacuum. often these are things we can all do in our everyday lives, john. >> yeah. i mean it gives you new meaning to the phrase, impure thoughts. if there are microplastics that your brain right? jacqueline howard, thank you very much brand new era of cnn news central starts right now. >> a terrible president. that's what robert f. kennedy junior said about donald trump just months before he did about face and endorsed the trump campaign this hour, we speak with rfk junior's sister, kerry kennedy, who says she's outraged i have brothers decision to embrace donald trump, voting companies and election officials still dealing with the fallout from the 2020 election lies. they are bracing for election day in november. what they're doing

to try to prepare and potentially record high temperatures and humidity expected to smother the midwest this week the heat so dangerous. some schools are being forced to close just days into the new year. i'm sara sider with john berman, kate bolduan is out. cnn's new central starts right now this morning. >> cnn is reporting on the debate about donald trump. but kamala harris boils down to one simple question why, why did donald trump just tell voters once again that he may not? show up to a debate. he already agreed to listen to trump's latest if he shouldn't say this, because if there's a debate it would be nice to surprise her with that one so is he skipping or is he bluffing because the new reporting from cnn's alayna treene this morning as donald trump's team recognizes, they do need to have a debate with

harris, alayna treene joins us. >> now with the very latest you are talking to the folks around him saying, yeah we know we need to have this debate so what is happening with him sort of couching that he may or may not do this well, look, i also will say that the former president himself really does want to debate. >> donald trump wants to debate himself. he thinks he has an obligation to do so. so keep that in mind around all of these discussions and the questions over the debate over the debate, what it really boils down to sara is each candidate is jocking for the rules to be better for themselves and give them an edge in this debate that's part of what we're seeing play out right now. and granted, the big picture here, is that they both recognize that the stakes are so high for this debate. they saw and we remember just a couple of months ago that june 27 cnn debate was a huge change for president joe biden. it was hugely important for him. and

what really set off a series of events that led him to end his campaign. so they recognize how oh, this debate could be one of the final defining moments of this entire election cycle. and so that's why we're seeing so much of this discussion over the roles, despite it seeming like a process he question. there's a lot of important factors here, so i'm going to break down what exactly they are kind of bickering over, which is whether or not microphones will be shut off during the debate so it's interesting because in the leadup to that first debate with joe biden in june, the trump campaign actually did not want the microphones to be shut off at any point however, that was something that the biden campaign had pushed for and ultimately the debate had that the microphones throw off when a candidate was finished speaking now, now that we're looking ahead to this september 10 debate with abc news, the harris campaign is saying, look, we did not agree to those rules. we want the microphones to be on for the duration of

this event and the trump campaign is now saying, well, actually those were the rules that we agreed to and you have to stick to them even though now of course those are the roles that they agreed to with the biden campaign. i'll just say again, i recognize we are getting into the weeds of this, but the important thing is what this means. and i will say from the trump campaign side, and we saw this in the leadup to that june debate. they recognize that having the microphones beyond and allowing donald trump to be able to interrupt kamala harris that it'd be really dicey because they really want to avoid him coming off as aggressive as i'm looking like a bully and having the microphones be shut off at certain points helps him avoid that. in many cases, i do think that they actually think donald trump's tone, his tenor, his rhetoric, his overall demeanor is more important than the actual substance. and so that's where a lot of this this is coming from, sara. >> it certainly helps him in debate with joe biden had those microphones turned off. alayna treene. thank you so much. i appreciate it, john all right. >> new this morning, members of the bipartisan congressional task force graded to investigate the attempted assassination of donald trump

they visited the site where the shooting happened. happen they toward the grounds with local law enforcement and said getting to the truth may be a slow processes are their words with us now is the top democrat on the task force, congressman jason crow of colorado, congressman. thank you so much for being with us. you were there what did you see what it being there show you well, good morning, john. >> are task force stood up over the last couple of weeks? we have all of our members now we have all of our staff. we started to receive document productions from the secret service and the fbi. you've now held two briefings with the secret service and the yeah. i learned in the army rangers during my deployments in iraq and afghanistan is you can look at maps, all you want you to look at imagery, all you want. but there's really no substitute for being on the ground and seeing firsthand the distances where the buildings are in relation to each other. the actual geography on the grounds that's what we saw, that helped his vision because

you allies things. so as we go through our hearings, as we do our interviews in the months ahead, will be able to better understand how everything happened. >> what about the sight lines to the podium itself? what did you see there? >> yeah. we're looking at the lines of sight i mean, as a former army ranger, as one of the things that i'm trained to look, looking at in my prior life it does appear as though the perimeter was not secure in the way that it should have been. there were several sight lines that weren't covered so we have a lot of questions were certainly coming out of this trip with a lot more questions and answers, which is i think what we all expected, what is the biggest question the biggest question for me is, who ultimately was in charge why wasn't there good communication and command and control you know as a former military person? nothing happens unless people are talking to one another and whether there's a clear line of authority and command and control and from what i've seen so far, i'm not seeing

that level of clarity in seeing that delineated in the way that i think it should have been so this is a bipartisan congressional committee, as you noted there, that's investigating this and we're seeing pictures of you right now, members of both parties there on site touring there are a couple republicans, at least who want to do their own investigation, cory mills, among them, cory mills was on with kate baldwin a couple of weeks ago in suggest he said and i'm paraphrasing here that he's not even convinced that there weren't some there in protection who somehow either wanted this to happen or let this happen. what do you think about rhetoric like that? >> well, listen john, this 435 members of congress, they come from all over. they have all sorts of backgrounds and different motivations. >> but something very very significant happened last month in the house of representatives . >> and that is when this committee was created with this passed, force was formed every

single voting member of the house of representatives that day, 416 members, every single democrat, every single republican voted to create this task force and to empower this task force with investigative authority. the take all the authority from all the different committees and the resettle it. in this task force and to give us subpoena power. so the entire house of representatives empowered this body with doing the investigation. we have the resources, we have the investigative staff, we have the subpoena authority, and we have the bipartisan will hello, to do this the right way, because this is too serious of an effort for us to do. otherwise, you america deserves to have their confidence restored that are elected officials, that are candidates will be secure. and right now people don't have that competence. so we're going to endeavor to do this right? thoroughly to do it quickly, and to get this done the way that it should be. >> a congressman mills has going on, would you say that's

helpful or not helpful well i don't know what other people are doing like i just said, this is the effort that congress has created to focus the investigation, to give the resources to go to the authority. >> and this has to be done in a bipartisan way and it will be done i do respect the fact that you're here speaking to us this morning as a member leader, the democratic leader of this bipartisan it's a task force i'm gonna shift a little bit in politics, but stay on the theme of bipartisanship. >> you just came from the democratic convention. you spoke at the democratic convention. one of the themes there seem to be about helping your neighbor reaching out why do you think that's so important in what evidence have you seen that voters are hungry for that well, i'm glad you're actually making this transition because another important goal of this task force, other than our primary goal of submitting a complete and thorough report to congress by descent number

13th is both chairman mike kelly that the chairman of the committee whose hometown is butler, pennsylvania, we are working hand in glove and we have agreed that another important task of this committee is to show america that we can have a campaign we can settle debates an even have tough, fierce debates at times. >> in the political arena. but we can also come together to do important things because america has to learn how to disagree again we are not each other's enemy we can have tough, fierce debates, which we will. and at the same time come together to do an important effort like this passport i believe very firmly and i learned that in the army, maj. military unit came from all over the country, from the north, the south east to west urban, rural every different background. we came together, we focused on our mission, but we hadn't comment and we got it done that is the spirit that we're working to instill here. >> all right. congressman jason crow, we do appreciate you being with us this morning. thanks so much for your help

thank you. sara. all right. special counsel jack smith, making an aggressive attempt to bring back the classified documents case against donald trump after it was thrown out of court. >> will that work? >> and this morning, ukrainian president volodymyr zelenskyy promising in a response retaliation for the latest attacks by russia in ukraine and tragedy the in texas, a young man drowned while saving a teenage girl just minutes after he was baptized in that same lake. we have all those stories and more coming the pros for have i got news for you are pretty odd about what are the kinds we could run on the news before then? i would never happen if i got news for you, amir saturday, september 14th at nine on cnn and streaming next day on we there wondering, is there when we leave you there whenever we come back home from school, he's just they're always ever

level hard knocks training camp with the chicago bears, streaming exclusively on max. special counsel jack smith is fighting back, attempting to revive the classified documents case against donald trump. judge aileen cannon's decision to dismiss the entire case in july because she said the prosecutors office lacked constitutional authority according to smith, was quote, novel and lack merit. cnn senior legal analyst, elie honig joins me now. give us some sense of the history on the special counsel's relationship because she said it lacked merit and the case entire thing was thrown out. so we've had special counsel here on the books as federal regulations for 25 years in the united states other defendants like donald trump have made the same challenge that he made only donald trump's the first one to succeed. >> the argument here, it's really important to understand, has nothing to do with the actual criminal allegations against donald trump, nothing to do with the case? yes. the argument is just special counsel itself is unconstitutional because

congress never passed a law saying specifically, there is this new job or creating it's called special counsel. however, all the prior challenges have failed, and i think this one ultimately will fail for donald trump because there are various other laws where congress has said, okay, but the ag can still delegate as authorities still has broad authority to hire and bring in other prosecutors to do his work and so for that reason, i think this challenge by donald trump ultimately will fell. i do think jack smith will succeed in getting the case reinstated. >> so if that happens, i mean, we'll when you say the case will fail, fail at the appellate level, do you think it ends up eventually in the supreme court, whoever loses at the appellate level will certainly ask the supreme court for to take the case. of course, it's up to the supreme court whether they take any case this one to me screams out for them because it's big constitutional question. and while i'm on the topic of making predictions, i think jack smith will win if it goes to the supreme court, even though it's a 6-3 court, even though they've given donald trump other favorable rulings,

including in the immunity case. we know so how clarence thomas is going to vote because he wrote a sort of aside, right? saying he is in favor of trump's position. i don't think he's going to be able to get the other conservatives, maybe alito, maybe gorsuch. i don't think there's going to be a majority to agree with donald trump here and throw this case out. and it's very interesting, alright, we're going to turn to another case, georgia a different brief from donald trump's team won wanting to throw the case out, trump's lawyers are accusing fani willis of racial animus towards him. >> what are the chances that this entire case gets tossed? >> i think trump has a decent case on getting decent chance on getting this case thrown out. and the focus of the brief that was filed last night, it's important to remember. it's not on the conflict of interests. remember, the da fani willis had this relationship with one of the lawyers. did they intermingle their cash or not? the focus here is on alleged prosecutorial misconduct by fani willis because you remember she went in front of a church outside of court and made public statements blasting the defense lawyers, essentially accusing them of being racist and donald

trump's claim here is that but tainted the jury pool, the people who are going to be my juror and the jurors for the other defendants here all saw that and that's going to incline them against us. and i think trump's got reelect to stand on their wouldn't at all shock me if the georgia court of appeals agrees and says prosecutorial misconduct, this case is out it is interesting. >> i mean prosecutors generally, in your experience don't talk about cases. it unless what? because sometimes they do interviews. yes. >> and you've seen we've all seen the press conference? yes, that's right when you talk about a case outside of a core as a prosecutor, you have to be really careful at the justice department, not fanie willis, the justice department. we tried to keep within the four corners of the indictment. and when you get beyond that, you get into dangerous territory and when you start assailing the motives and suggesting that the defendants or the defense lawyers are racist. you are in really dangerous territory. the da should know that she's she's an accomplished prosecutors. she's been doing this for a long time. it's still astonishing to me that

she would have done what you did and now there may be consequences were doing a whole round robin of cases all over the world, around the world. the supreme court heard an emergency case where it upheld some restrictions in the arizona case, and struck down others. can we expect? scotus to jump in to this more unfortunately, i think the answer is yes. >> look, the term technically ended in july, but they're still there if needed, on an emergency basis. and the arizona case, you're talking about, sara is one of what i think will be several emergency appeals that make their way up to the supreme court. and what i think is causing some people concern is the supreme court has said in the past, we try to stay out of election and voting related cases if it's too close to an election and if it upsets the status quo, we don't want voters being taken by surprise as to what the rules are. yet they still did intervene to some extent in the arizona case and so get ready for a whole fate of these lawsuits. i think you're going to see challenges happening between now and november. it's not how we want our electoral system to play

out in the courts, but the supreme court has made clear they are going to get involved at times and i don't think that's great for where we are as a democracy but it's the supreme court. they're going to do what they're going to do. that's right. and did lawsuits are going to come as we get closer and closer to november? i mean, things could get really wild. we are going to be he watching all of this happen and were so close to the time when people are going to actually be voting for the 2024 presidential. when you see me on air on election day, that's not a good sign. oh, elie heidi have to be a debbie downer it means there's some kind of thing. we don't want that. >> elie honig. thank you so much. appreciate it. outrage democrats in texas demanding a federal investigation after the states republican ag ordered raids, that the democrats say our targeted to them and why mariah carey is saying her heart is broken monday night or two well, we're fully story

smears in 2020. and they summed up the state of play in pretty stark terms. i want to read this for you, john. that official told me that quote, we are still completely mired in disinformation this disinformation and misinformation is something we've never had to deal with at this scale, going into an election. okay, so what are they doing about it? well, you've heard about the massive defamation lawsuits. they've filed against fox news and rudy giuliani and other trump allies yes they could get a very big payday from those lawsuits and they've gotten nearly 800 million last year from fox, but they're also hoping that that will be a deterrent factor that maybe this time around if people know that you might have to pay millions, they won't spread the lies. also, john and other company and it's actually larger than dominion called es and .'s they instituted a new policy this year to scrub all of their employees social media. they wanted to make sure that their staff didn't have any political posts or endorsements that we're on twitter or facebook that could be weaponized later on by

internet sleuths who want to use that to attack the company's attack the vote putting administrators also, i found this really interesting. this company ii sns, which is one of the largest of election equipment makers in the country. they held a training session for their employees before thanksgiving last year. here's what you do when your friends and family inundate you with questions about the 20 may 20 election, disinformation on the national scale, john, but also it really hits home and they're trying to have a better outcome this year what about the election workers themselves, marshall, what's being done to help keep them safe? well, everybody is aware of the increased threat environment just yesterday, the justice department announced new charges against a man in colorado who was threatening to kill election workers in that state. and also in the battleground state of arizona. so the companies have boosted

their spending on physical security not cybersecurity here, john, physical security for employees, some of whom that i spoke with are still terrified and traumatized by what happened four years ago additionally, i spoke to one company that is providing wearable panic buttons to election officials. those they say that they're going to be sending out 1,500 panic buttons to officials in five different states. you can aware this technology, you press the button 911 gets called. they are you hoping that they can deploy that if anybody gets too rowdy or upset at their polling places this fall, hopefully they don't have to use it and also john, some of these companies have even brought in the big guns, dhs, department of homeland security, to look at their own cyber protection is they don't want their employees to get hacked or spear phishing attempts they know that everyone is trying to get in on the action for this election, including bad actors and, they want things to go better this year. it's just 70 days away. john.

>> look, i'm glad they're being careful but wearable panic buttons. what a sad commentary on the power of lies. so marshall cohen, thanks so much for being with us. appreciate it. sara. all right. this morning, a latino civil rights group, the oldest in the nation is calling on the justice department to launch an investigation into texas attorney general, ken paxton. this is after paxton's office launched a series of raids on the homes of voting activist and a democratic candidate runninfor the texas state house the league of united latin american citizens says the raids in three counties are a quote direct attempt to suppress the latino vote. one longtime member says she was still in her nightgown when her home was rated early in the morning? >> at one point, they had me outside in front of all my neighbors while they search the living room and they never let me get dressed and it was just very embarrassing intimidating harassment they searched

everything in my house that was at 7-year-old. >> one of the lulac members joining us now is texas state senator roland gutierrez no charges have so far been filed since the raids and three counties last week the attorney general's office says that they were all tied to alligator patients of voter fraud. first of all, do you think the rates are legitimate know i don't see i mean, the attorney general is basing his claims on an affidavit from an election two years ago there is no basis to what he's alleging. >> i want to be very clear who we are talking about this the attorney general, ken paxton, who was indicted for securities fraud, was on some form of felony, deferred disposition where he has to pay $271,000 in restitution to the people that he defrauded. so essentially, we need to consider the source here. this is an 87-year-old great grandmother. the other

two women were also in their 80s they were mistreated. one of the one of the people who was targeted had people draw guns on him. the things that the texas rangers didn't do, in uvalde they did to these people, they treated him as if they were el chapo or something we have some real problems here in texas with disinformation, like your last story with this kind of influence peddling because what they want to do is intimidate latino voters suppress the vote in south texas because they're fighting for every race and they have a seat that they think they can win in house district 80, and they're trying to do everything that they can to do it. and ken paxton will stop at nothing i do want to ask you this because some people say, well, the judge signed off on the warrants for them to go and search or raid some of these homes what do you say to people to say there must be something there since the judge signed off on it i listened. nobody

was arrested here. nobody has been arrested. ken paxton has done this before. this is not his first time. this is not his second time. this is not his third time. he's done this election after election, and none of those investigations patients in fort worth or in san antonio or this one in south texas, or the ones that he's conducted in houston, not one of them has led to any kind of indictment or charges down the road you know i just have to look at this man's history and look at who he is, and look at how partisan he is and i'm certain that tonight will hear this. the next trump rally because what's happens in texas forms the narrative for these republicans nationwide it's quite sad because people are getting hurt the most are texts i do want to ask you if you have had the chance to speak with any of those whose homes were rated or heard from any of their family members? i spoke to lydia martinez is a

woman that you had on your on your video tip of spoke to manual medina. the nine officers had guns pointed at him at his house where his children were sleeping i spoke lydia martinez they went into her refrigerator looking for god knows what, they stayed there for our she asked to change out of her morning nightgown and they should know. they sat there and questioned her about all sorts of tactics. she said, look, all i do as volunteer for the democrats and the two hano democrats or democratic party and so they are yes, i've spoken to them and all of these people who are victim to ken paxton schemes to try to disinform people there already raising money in that house district against the person the candidate that they allege so suseela custody or that they allege was part of this supposed scheme it's really quite disgusting i do want to ask you lastly, you brought up uvalde in the fact that they had guns according to

the gentleman you spoke with who they raised it has his home. >> you have talked about uvalde and you have asked for an assault weapons ban and i'm curious where that lies, right now there won't be any kind of legislative action in texas who you have all seen across the nation, the failure of the cops because they were afraid of that gun there has been zero transparency in texas, zero accountability. >> it's over to almost two-and-a-half years now. and there is there will be no policy change as long as greg abbott and ken paxton and others like them remain in control of this state sadly, what happened in uvalde will happen again in texas because republicans don't want to fix their loose gun laws texas state senator roland gutierrez. >> thank you so much for joining us this morning, getting up early for us. appreciate it. >> yes, ma'am. thank john. >> all right. we do have breaking news. sara, we are just learning that a hostage who was abducted by hamas on october 7 has been rescued. we

of them are still alive though is rarely officials have acknowledged that many many are dead. we do have a reaction as well from the family of the hostage family forum they call this nothing short of a miraculous so john, you don't get news like this. often and it's been well, we're coming up on 11 months since the october 7 terror attacks successful rescue operations like this one are few and far between some good news today for one of those hostage families yeah, it has to be such a relief to that family, but a reminder, there are still some 108 families who are looking for closure like this. >> a cnn anchor chief national security analyst jim sciutto, who is there and tel aviv, jim, thank you so much. keep us posted as we get new developments. head all right. >> new this morning, robert kennedy junior's says, donald trump has a job for him i'm working with the campaign we're working on policy issues

together i will i've been asked to go on to the transition team and, you know, to help pick the people who will be running the government the trump transition team with us now, kennedy sister, kerry kennedy. >> thank you so much for being with us when you hear this drip, drip, drip of news from your brother, how does that make you feel i mean, it's an overall disappointing personally, but this really isn't about me. >> it my brother. this is a campaign about our country. and about one world and you know, the stakes this november couldn't be higher, which exactly exactly why my entire family would the exception of bobby, will be fighting so hard. to come let harris and coach walz, who had been champions for our for our

family values for years and years and years donald trump is the polar opposite. he's a threat to our most basic freedoms. >> that are core to who we are as americans, the right women to control their bodies, to live in communities safe from gun violence, to love who you love he said he'll be a dictator on day one and it's willing to suspend the constitution in order to take revenge against those who do not support him. >> and he's pledging to repeal the affordable care act and cut social security and medicare leaving millions without the programs that vote so he's there front everything. our father and uncle stood for an apparently and a front to some things that your brother, u.s used to stand for because the k file on earth overnight, some things that that, that robert kennedy jr. had been saying about donald trump saying that trump was a terrible president, a threat to democracy, a bully.

he appealed to bigotry, hatred, xenophobia, and prejudice you know, you know, your brother, i know you haven't talked too much it recently. but what do you think might have changed his mind on trump you know, i can't say. >> i don't fall. i can say is that when i think about but carries my father's name and throughout his campaign, he relied on daddy's hit inches, an uncle jackson pitches to promote that campaign. so he has an extra duty to protect their values and their vision and were he alive today that real robert kennedy would have detested almost everything donald trump represents. his lying selfishness racism, hatred, fascist sympathies deliberate misinformation about vaccines, criminal felony convictions daddy was the

attorney general of the united states the chief law enforcement officer, donald trump raped e. jean carroll, has 34 felony actions. his contempt for the poor and suffering for ethics democracy, and healing, his cool, sneering acumen rights for suffering people in america and around the world the cause that was so loved passionately by my referred chemically. >> so i'm frankly outraged and disgusted by bobby's my brothers gaudi's an obscene embrace of donald trump what do you think trump gets out of it you know, trumpism is street to me. >> what does he get out a bit, but i think that he is trying to attach himself to the committee name, kennedy values and vision, which has not possible for him to do because he is the polar opposite and

american people are concerned about or not. bobby kennedy, chief i think they're looking at what's going on in their lives. this administration of the biden-harris administration has really created change, wages are up, inflation is down. >> small businesses are booming manufacturing jobs are back are back. they'd kept the cost of insulin to $35 for those unmet i care lowering prescription drugs and health clause and they and they addressed student loans for over 4 million eric adams pass the birth bipartisan gun safety legislation 30 years and then think about this. >> since 1989, the united states has created 51 million new jobs 51 million. how many were under republican

are you seeing? why are they doing this now this judge putins way of striking back after the incursion in the kursk region. >> this is what he can do. it demonstrates to the world and it was young people that he's taking the offensive, that he is powerful and it's part of a continuing campaign. obviously to eradicate the energy infrastructure in ukraine one of the things that volodymyr zelenskyy is saying, is he saying that this assault into or this invasion into russian territory in kursk here it's the first stage of what he is saying is a four-stage plan to win the war here, how do you see this as forcing putin's hand? so first of all, putin is going to have to divert forces and apparently he's diverted maybe 30,000 troops to try to contain this secondly, it does

undercut is authority with the russian people. it shows if he can't protect it also shows to the west and to the united states that's a ukrainian forces have offensive capability. and it provides strong argument that the united states should stop holding back on the use of its weapons that it gives to ukraine, loved the ukrainians user, let them strike deep into russia meanwhile, it buys time for ukraine to develop its own deep strike capability. president zelenskyy is released to information of a new ukrainian drone missile. it's called and it's going to go deep and maybe be effective. show there are lots of arguments in favor of this. the question, though john is does, this operationally significant or strategically significant and right now it has political significance strategically the whole world sees it. but in terms of military operations, it's not yet accomplished. a strategically significant resulted hasn't caught major

rail lines, hasn't stopped the supply of logistics forward to the russian troops hasn't caused them to divert from their pokrovsk offensive so it remains to be seen how this plays out you know, general you brought up the idea that zelenskyy continues to plead with the west as for deep-strike capabilities inside russia, you can see this is ukraine, this is russia here when we talk about that capability, which ukraine may have the capability, but at least at this point not the clearance from the united states to do so. >> what would the targets be? how far into russia do you think ukraine would like to strike? >> well, i think ukraine would like to strike first in the kursk region. that's where these glide bombs are being produced as of now i'd like to make all of the airfields was in let's say 300, 400 kilometers, unusual through repeated strikes, through keeping their drones overhead,

through watching what's happening and being bringing immediate response. and then later, they've got to go. they've got to go much further into russia as far north as vermont as far east as a euros and maybe further than this. and certainly in the south to take out the launching pads and the, and the air bases that are feeding these missile strikes. but more than that, they've got to chain escalation dominance over the russians. so the russians understand that they can't just fire a few more missiles. the more they far, the more they're going to lose. so ukraine's got a ways to go, but it's not impossible. >> general wesley clark. thank you so much for being here this morning. as always, we appreciate your insight i new era of cnn news central starts right now all right. >> breaking just moments ago, a khan stich abducted by h
