7:04 am
serve your country. imagine what they had to go through. i was here 30 years ago. came in on a landing craft. you could see from out there what they saw here. the idea that they got off those boats, they got off those landing craft, many of them died, sinking. come across that beach. just astounding. astounding. but what it says to me is how critical alliances are. how critical alliances are for our security. >> reporter: the president's speech here honoring our heroes and defending democracy. i asked him about ukraine and the u.s. now authorizing the use of american weapons inside russia. and vladamir putin's warning about this overnight. i'd love to ask you about ukraine. i know for years you've resisted the idea of american weapons being used for any sort of direct strike inside russia. but we did witness a shift in recent days authorizing american
7:05 am
weapons for limited direct strikes. are american weapons being used right now inside russia? >> they're authorized to be used in proximity to the border. we are not authorizing strikes 200 miles into russia. we're not authorizing strikes into moscow, on the kremlin. >> reporter: let me ask you about what putin said about this authorization of american weapons inside russia. he said the supply of high precision weapons to ukraine for strikes on russian territory is direct participation in this war. he went on to say that this is the way to serious problems and again talked about russia's nuclear capabilities. does that concern you? >> i have known him for over 40 years. he's concerned me for 40 years. he's not a decent man. he's a dictator. he's struggling to make sure he holds his country together while still keeping his assault going.
7:06 am

7:07 am
lives that day, many of whom are buried here behind me. this cemetery just takes your breath away. it stretches as far as the eye can see. but what is especially remarkable is the attendance of many who valiantly fought here. the president greeting them one by one today. this is likely the last major anniversary that many of those veterans will be able to attend, and the president spent one on one time with them, telling one of them, you saved the world. the president is focused on honoring their sacrifices and their duty to the world, but he also under scored the importance of american leadership and challenged the next generation to continue to protect democracy. it comes as biden is trying to rally allies to defend ukraine against russia. biden will meet with president zelenskyy while he is here. the president's remarks were not a campaign speech but he has put preserving democracy at the center of this race and is making clear this is a stark
7:08 am

7:09 am
him for burns before he was detained. this alleged plot coming within worsening french/russia relations. with french president macron considering sending military instructors to ukraine so russia, in his words, does not win the war, robin. >> robin: all right, tom. thank you for your reporting. now the tornado outbreak in maryland, near nation's capital. a deadly twister striking in michigan. sam is in for ginger standing by with the big picture. but first let's go to elizabeth schulze with a glimpse of the damage. good morning to you, elizabeth. >> reporter: good morning, robin. we are in a dense residential area 30 miles west of the nation's capital. cars are trapped, power lines are down. if you look over here, you can see this tree has been completely split in half, fell onto that house. this is one of several homes encased by fallen trees and debris after the tornado tore through the neighborhood. >> get back down! get back down! >> reporter: overnight, multiple tornados touching down in maryland. >> there's two! there's two!

7:13 am
willis to stay on the case. for months trump tried to get willis removed arguing her romantic relationship with special prosecutor nathan wade created a conflict of interest. back in march a judge did allow willis to continue to lead the prosecution as long as wade resigned. trump appealed that decision. now matter could take months to resolve. of course, it was just last week the former president was found guilty, convicted on 34 counts of falsifying business records. his sentencing in that case is set for july 11. that's four days before he is supposed to be accepting the party's nomination. he is also facing charges in two federal cases, one mishandling classified documents and another about overturning the 2016 election. both of those cases now facing significant delays also making it less likely either of those would go to trial before the election. >> george: okay, rachel. thank you very much. we have new details on the shootout at the u.s. embassy in beirut. the gun man who opened fire had isis insignia written across his
7:14 am

>> sam: i know what it is. she has to fully turn around. >> robin: how? how? how do you not, you know? >> that actually is not heavy. >> george: no? >> i'll tell you the story of this. it actually took about two years in the making. erika had this idea in the first season to have one of the queen's wigs mechanical, some kind of mechanical thing going on in it. it took two years to get that all signed off. obviously, you have red tape and safety. will it blow up in her hair? [ laughter ] will she be electrokited? how are we going to keep her alive? and my specification was i didn't want it to be heavy. i didn't want the mechanism to be in the wig. you've got the plate which is light where all the spans. all the wires go down the back of my neck to a pack that is harnessed to my leg.
8:42 am
the pack, the battery pack is only about that big. >> sam: wow. >> and also the whole innards are hollowed out. i was pleased to be able to do that for erika. she's an absolute talent. her brain is sensational. to have that manifest itself to her, as an artist, was -- [ laughter ] somebody press play. [ laughter ] >> sam: while we're talking wigs, i haven't seen this, but you had a wardrobe malfunction. what was it? >> she's dealing with these huge things and i can't wear a bloody pair of trousers. no, basically -- more than once, yeah. also because luke, the other luke, it didn't happen to him. he said they were elastic.
8:43 am
no, we tried on a pair of trousers for the balloon sequence in the first part. i said they feel snug. they always feel snug. so it will be fine. i did one of the most inelegant puller of the rope, crouching. the other luke is looking fantastic. it happened about three or four times in a row they ripped clean off.

[ laughter ] but the joy that you bring us with the series. >> it's a privilege to be in this show. >> very lucky indeed. >> very very lucky. it changes people's lives and helps them through dark times. it's great. really great. >> robin: it does. season 3 part 2 of bridgerton is coming to netflix next thursday,

8:46 am
i, like many others, found refuge in night life. i found a sense of community for the first time. i didn't have any of the tools that i needed to begin processing any of that shame. for a lot of us i think substances become a solution. >> reporter: members of the lgbtq + community are about twice as likely to face substance abuse disorders than their counter parts. >> what was a struggle for me is that isolation. >> reporter: housing works a new york city advocacy group offered programs including therapy, outpatient treatment for those dealing with alcohol and substance addiction. >> really, the aim of it is to meet people where they are, no matter what it is that's impacting them, trying to join with that person to really create an individualized style of treatment that works for them. >> this is rooted recovery story. >> reporter: 900 miles away in nashville, tennessee, patrick custer shining a light on what long time recovery looks like.
8:47 am
>> i get to live a life full of happiness, joy, peace. all the things that are the antithesis of what it stole from me. >> reporter: what does it mean this month of pride? >> loving myself to the point where i can be honest and open with every single aspect of myself. >> it's taking pride in not only my identity as a queer person, but my identity as a person in recovery. >> you and i can be that pillar of hope to show other people that, no matter what certain voices are saying, they do not define who and what i am. >> reporter: and eric, another pillar of pride, will celebrate ten years of sobriety later this year. eric, what was it like performing as a sober queen for the first time? >> it was so exhilarating. the way i would describe it is almost like the excitement you feel before getting on your first roller coaster. it's like you're terrified, but
8:48 am
you're also excited. to use drag is just the vehicle of celebration. >> i have tried to consider what message i needed to here as a queer person with substance abuse issues. i think it's this. for anyone out there struggling, it's not your fault, but it is your responsibility. the good news, you don't have to do it alone. there's a proud community of people ready to help when you're ready to ask for it. >> whit: powerful story. i'm proud of you, will, and everything that you've been through in your journey and recovery. thank you very much for that. we'l rht back.
