3:00 am
the home of the queen who we believe may have just left to visit her great grandson. a car was spotted headed in that direction. also we're going to show you what's going on just over two miles from here. this is kensington palace. the new prince woke up with his parents william and kate and we'll take you to the palace as well as show you all of the new pictures of the young prince who is likely the most photographed 2-day-old ever and of course we'll get into this side by side, kate and chi jana. there is so much meaning in what kate chose to imlate and do differently. >> polka dot dress, noticed that. >> nothing gets by you. >> i know. kate we'll be back to you in a few minutes. i'm here with news anchor
3:01 am
michaela pereira. the president is trying to jump-start his economic plan. later today he'll give a big speech. jay carney will join us life to discuss those plans, the strength of the economy. obviously so important to all of you but a lot of disagreement how to improve it. new video from inside the cabin as that southwest jet made a hard landing at laguardia airport monday. there's new information as to what went wrong but clearly a lot of unanswered questions, certainly you can hear the stress in the people's voice, quite a fright with that landing. we'll begin with a remarkable moment in politics. anthony weiner with an admission of more. he says he continued sending women inappropriate online messages long after a sexting scandal forced him from office. nevertheless he is intent on staying in the race for the mayor and who approves his wife
3:02 am
who gave a stunning statement on his behalf. pamela brown is live following the story. >> what a twist. she was standing by his side and then anthony weiner's wife, long time hillary clinton aid, huma abedin went up to the podium saying she has forgiven him. is it enough to save his campaign? >> anthony's made some horrible mistakes both before he resigned from congress and after, but i do very strongly believe that that is between us and our marriage. >> reporter: anthony weiner's wife, huma abedin asked new yorkers to forgive her husband like she has in a dramatic conference tuesday. >> it took a lot of work and a whole lot of therapy. >> reporter: the disgraced congressman once again guilty of the same behavior that publicly humiliated his wife in 2011 while she was pregnant. huma abedin addressed the
3:03 am
allegations this time in a very public way. >> i love him. i have forgiven him. i believe in him and as we have said from the beginning, we are moving forward. >> reporter: weiner admitting to online sex chats with women after resigning congress and undergoing therapy. >> i have said that other texts and photos would likely come out. while some are true and some are not, there is no question that what i did was wrong. >> reporter: his late's poll gee came after new pictures and texas with a 22-year-old was reported on thedirty.com. >> while some of the things are true and some are not there is no question that what i did was wrong. >> reporter: back in april, when weaner announced candidacy for new york mayor he said more allegations could emerge. >> if reporters want to try to
3:04 am
find more, i can't say that they're not going to be able to find another picture. >> reporter: with the continued possibility of more texts there's no telling if abedin's defense of her husband will help resurrect her political career. this morning the "new york times" and "new york daily news" are calling for weaner to withdraw. several other candidates say he's unfit for office. he's made it clear he plans to stay in the race. >> there's no question his competitors want him to drop out because he's beating all but one. we bring in anna navarro and mr. john avalon, both cnn contributors. beautiful to have you both, thank you for being here. i'll start with you, anna. here is the question. is this new and more or is this just more of the same? how do you think this plays politic politically? >> it's certainly new and more
3:05 am
for voters in new york and people that watch it develop on tv. perception wise it's new and more and in politics what matters is perception. he has a recurrent problem. there's a huge difference between a one-time occurrence and recurrence going on after he had been caught. this tells you this guy has a problem. >> also you have another timing this looks politically expedient for somebody, mr. avalon, that it comes to the polls his original statement was there will be more and this happened while we were working things out. there's no question the media loves this. it's so much easier than covering the race itself but to voter what do you think this will mean? >> remember he's been campaigning asking for a second chance. thousand today he's asking for a third chance. that's fundamentally different in what the voters are being asked. not only did he make a stupid mistake involving sexting but he
3:06 am
cheated virtually digitally after the apology, after the resignation. this shows contempt for the original contrition and that's going to be a big deal. >> we get the humanizing effect, which is a term i came up with. ana, huma wasn't there for the resignation but comes for this, gives an emotional talk and says the important things, i love him, i forgive him. i believe in him. if it's enough for her, should it be enough for the voters? >> you know, chris, the problem is that this discussion is not going on in their living room or bedroom. it's playing out in front of national tv and i have to tell you it was almost like watching a horror film. i wanted to cover my eyes but keep on watching. it's really cringe-inducing. i don't claim to be a thermometer for the woman vote but it'd be hard for me to vote for a guy who has made his wife
3:07 am
endure this kind of public humiliation. even though she's there willingly, nobody is forcing her to do it, it's hard to vote for a guy who is doing that and what's got to be weighing on the minds of new yorkers is how badly do these folks want to get elected and be on the political stage that they're willing to do this not once but twice? that begins to talk a little bit about psyche. >> i got you. look, this clearly is using the hillary clinton playbook and part of it is success heals all wounds. let's just win and then all this tawdry mess will be in the rear view mirror. the problem, what anthony weiner did yesterday putting his wife forward for the first time that was really, really, really low, even by politician standards but that was an attempt to use that relationship to deflect attention and embarrassment. he's enjoying the cameras and she's suffering through this in real time probably in some degree of shock. >> she's the only victim. i'm not a victim. she's the victim.
3:08 am
if he gets to be mayor the people of new york city will be the victims. >> he tried pedro pervert but i think that was taken already. >> listen, i have to reset tone. let me ask you this, ana innav o navarro. he's already at 37% negative. this is my ending theory for you. he was at 37% unfavorable before this. we know that voters unfortunately have low expectations for their leaders that the sex scandals seem to be i dononly care what you do for not what you do for yourself? we have to wait for the next polls but you know? >> we don't know he doesn't survive. part of what's happening is the other opponents are so weak, have no name recognition and i don't put it past new yorkers but be forewarned new york
3:09 am
voters that it is out of the realm of possibility that if you elect this guy you're going to be highly embarrassed at some point during his term. >> ana navarro, mr. avalon who beat me in the same color combination, yours looks better and i'm okay, i'm over it. you believe it's not about the sexting, it's about the trust. >> how can we trust your judgment? we can't. >> thanks for being on here. always love having you on "new day." now to kate over in london. >> chris, thanks so much. we told you at the top of the show there is some moving going on at buckingham palace, a car was seen leaving that looked similar to the car the queen uses often headed in the direction of kensington palace. could it be the big moment, max, when the queen gets to meet her great grandson for the first time? >> reporter: i haven't got it
3:10 am
confirmed but we're pretty sure she's arrived. i asked about a half hour ago and they weren't giving any guidance on this but i'm pretty sure she's going to be arriving today. i'm almost certain she is inside and it would be a private meeting, two future kings and future queen consult inside. it's an historic moment, it's a great grandmother meeting her great grandchild for the first time and great grandmother monarch who has three heirs behind her and this is going to be the youngest of them so it's a moment head of state meeting future head of state and great grandmother meeting a great grandchild and seeing william who she's very close to with his child for the first time so it's a family moment and also a state occasion. >> a state occasion in one of those moments you wish you could be a fly on the wall because as we've talked to many royal experts they say this queen has
3:11 am
worked very hard to move this monarchy forward and to have her great grandson in her arms but the third in line to the throne it's quite a sense of accomplishment for her in a strange way, right, max? >> reporter: yes. she's -- the queen is very well regarded and if ever she did slip up it was on one occasion when she stayed up in baumoor when diana died and that was because she wanted to look after william and harry. sorry, just had an update, there is no update update. so she -- >> it happens. >> reporter: exactly. you've been part of this for 48 hours, you know what it's like. she was seen as messing up because the world was in london, very emotional, and this was really the epicenter of the
3:12 am
emotion after diana. you remember the flowers laid outside the palace and the queen didn't come down and share for the country. she forgot perhaps she was also a mother figure to the country, not just to william and harry. >> all right, max, keep us updated, bring our viewers up to date. it is believed the queen is at final confirmation to meet her great grandson for the first time. big moment for the queen and family as well, a very historic moment for this country. so we got our first look at the royal baby tuesday as prince william and duchess katherine left the hospital. it felt very familiar for royal watchers around the world. the moment unforgettable and picture perfect. prince william and kate emerging from st. mare's hospital to
3:13 am
introduce britain's king. >> he's a big boy, we're still working on a name. we'll have that as soon as we can. >> reporter: william already a doting father. >> he's got her looks thankfully. >> no, no, no. >> reporter: a tender gesture. >> i'll remind him of his tardiness when he's older. >> reporter: so much like prince william's debut back in 1982, as the wait got longer and longer the anticipation grew and so did the crowds, the media all camped out, everyone trying to catch that first glimpse of the new prince. >> everybody back behind the barriers, please. >> reporter: police monitored the excited public crammed on the sidewalks lining the hospital where prime viewing spots behind the barricades were a pricely commodity. at this point you've been here so long you might as well stick it out. >> at this point i'm dying to go to the loo but never mind.
3:14 am
>> reporter: crowds still big at buckingham palace. why wait in line? >> it's part of being british. we don't shout very often about what we do or who we are, this is what we are. >> reporter: so the world watched as prince william carefully locked his new son's car seat for the first time. the proud dad driving his family to kensington palace where they enjoyed their first night together at home with the new prince. and we'll have much more coverage of the royal baby throughout the morning including the role of kate's parents on what role they will play in the prince's upbringing. back to you in new york. >> thanks, kate, great stuff. we want to take to you brazil because this is where pope francis is preparing to visit, what many brazilians consider the holiest site, the national shrine of our lady of aparacida. there are more security concerns after that drive through rio's
3:15 am
streets monday. miguel marquez, good morning. >> reporter: good morning there, chris. it's not just security the pope is going to be concerned about today, it's weather. it is raining. there was going to be tens of thousands of people there for the mass, first public mass of his trip so far this as cnn learns federal officials in brazil are taking a bigger hand in security. this morning pope francis on the move, a man taking little down time even on what was supposed to be his day off. ♪ a special moment at the residence where he's staying in rio, a private mass given by the pontiff himself. this as questions about how the pope's car ended up in the wrong lane, exposing him to hundreds
3:16 am
of adoring followers but also pop harm. the pope calm throughout the incident, at one point even kissing a baby. here at rio's operations center officials say there are typically three routes for getting the pope from point "a" to "b" but that can be changed in an instant. some officials blame miscommunication between federal and local officials and others suggest a lone public servant failed to properly direct the pope's motorcade. officially no answers for now. "we will not talk about the past," he says, "we will only talk about the days ahead," this as world youth day finally gets started. also as a security concern, hundreds of thousands of pilgrims. this is the opening ceremony and the opening mass of world youth day and despite a pretty miserable evening here in rio tens of thousands have showed up, the main stage about a half
3:17 am
mile from where i'm standing. >> i'm emotional, i want to cry. >> reporter: the crowds will only grow by week's end, millions of pilgrims looking to pope francis for leadership. now we do know there are already changes to the way the pope conducts business in brazil. the pope mobile, the opened topped car will not be used as much, he'll use more enclosed cars but not bullet proof cars at the moment, that's what security officials would like to use more of but right now he's going with the soft vehicle for many trips. >> strong desire to be as close to the people, a different image of the papacy. miguel thank you for the reporting this morning. i should have said bon jia. i have a brazilian wife and i still blew it. let's move on to news.

4:05 am
37% which raises the question is this more provocative for us in the media or for voters? let's get a take on that. pamela, appreciate the reporting. for some analysis let's bring in cnn chief political analyst, gloria borger. good morning, gloria. >> hi, chris. >> thank you for joining us on "new day." >> sure. >> you heard what i was talking to pamela about. do you think this hurts him with the voters because it's new and worse or just about us? >> yes, i do think it hurts him with the voters and here's why. as pamela was referring to, in april, in a way to inoculate himself before announced officially his candidacy, he said, yeah, there are going to be some other things. i can't guarantee you there won't be. what he did not do is tell us the timing of them. i think voters asumd th s s aas
4:06 am
he had stopped and now it's a question of trust and judgment. that's an issue for voters. >> trust and judgment, you would think in this situation it would go specifically to his wife and she says yes i knew about them, the behavior change was a process, took lots of therapy and the magic potential line, "i love him. i forgive him. i believe in him." you know with voters gloria better than i do that when the wife is okay with it, maybe then you should be okay with it. >> look, the wife is always the greatest character witness, right, chris? you know that. it's really important, if huma had not been standing next to him yesterday i think it would have been a very, very different story. she made the point, look, you know, this took us a lot of therapy. i think the question is, is running for mayor part of your therapy? okay? that's a question voters are going to have to answer. i think voters are very willing to forgiveou and give you a
4:07 am
second chance. the big question i have is, are new yorker voters going to want to give him a second second chance or are they going to feel like he was playing a little fast and loose with that time line of just how he was coming out of his problems and will they believe him when he says now that's all in the past. the jury is still out on that. >> we're tracking it online pretty carefully. i'm hearing a lot of "you people need to get over this" from people to the media, you don't want to cover the real election. this is like candy for you gouy. i'm worried about me as a voter. let me know what we're going to do about me. >> we're not hearing about that. there's a field of a bunch of candidates out there and what he does not want to be talking about is his history of sexting. what he does want to be talking about is what he can do for new york city and this of course is the ultimate thing that would
4:08 am
take a candidate off message, right, and so if the voters want to hear from him about what he wants to do for new york city he has to get through this. i don't think it's the media per se but of course you're going to ask questions about this and people are going to say, are you the right person right now to handle the tough job of being the mayor of new york city, when in fact you clearly have some issues in your personal life that you need to be spending an awful lot of time on? >> what will be novel here is usually this happens when you're in office. if anthony weiner is able to win carrying this burden, that will be impressive and when i say you the media i'm including myself. i was one of the first to report on this scandal when it first happened so i'm in it as deep as you can be. >> the bar gets higher for him, chris, the bar just gets higher and higher and high per. >> i take the point. i know everybody's polling now. we'll see where the voters are on it.
4:09 am
it's interesting to see huma up there, i'm using the phrase "did she humanize him?" >> it's important but we'll see if it's dispositive. >> i'm going to look up that word and get back to you. thank you very much, gloria, thanks for being on "new day." back to london and kate bolduan. kate? >> thanks so much, chris. so the new royal prince getting his first visit from his great grandmother this morning. queen elizabeth just left kensington palace after a brief visit. straight to royal correspondent max foster live outside kensington palace. hi, max. >> reporter: a half-hour and priority visit for william, this was the first call he made while he was in hospital after the baby was born, desperate for the queen to meet her new heir so her youngest heir, third in line. moment for her as a queen but also a moment for her as a great
4:10 am
grandmother. what we're all waiting on of course is the name of this prince and i suspect, you know, yesterday when he talked about not knowing the name and not quite there yet i suspect he wanted to put it to the queen first so kate and william sitting in hospital, bouncing some names around, perhaps decided on one and today putting it to the queen. she doesn't have to officially approve it. but because of their close relationship and the role the baby will play in the monarchy i think he would have put it past her first. kate, fingers crossed for a baby name today. >> fingers crossed and i do like that little show of suspect. i do respect that as well. great to see you of course, max. we had some fun last night, great seeing you and working with you. i'll talk to you in a bit. the duke and duchess of cambridge assured everyone they're still working on the name for their bundle of joy. the world got to see him for the first time tuesday and brought millions of royal watchers back to another moment in time in

4:12 am
spots behind the barricades were a priceless commodity. at this point you've been here so long you might as well stick it out. >> absolutely. even though i'm dying to go to the loo but never mind. >> reporter: across the city, crowds still big at buckingham palace. why wait in line? >> it's part of being british. we don't shout very often about what we do or who we are, this is something that we are, to be proud of. >> reporter: so the world watched as prince william carefully locked his new son's car seat for the first time. the proud dad driving his family to kensington palace where they enjoyed their first night together at home with the new prince. ♪ and i got to tell you, chris, i heard so many people saying that they could remember that picture, that video of charles and diana and william on the steps of st. mary's hospital, so vividly, and you can be sure that in years to come people will be saying the same of that image that we saw, that introduction to the world that we saw yesterday with kate, william and the little prince of

there was no loss of life, but the damage was extensive. this is what it looked like on board southwest airlines flight 345 as the nose of the plane hit the runway at new york's laguardia airport on monday. a passenger on the plane shot this video as the boeing 737 crash landed and skidded for more than 2,000 feet. the national transportation safety board says the front landing gear collapsed on impact, causing the nose of the plane to smash on the tarmac, sending sparks and flames shooting up from the bottom of the aircraft. >> i thought it was just bounce, a terrible job with the pilot. i didn't realize what happened until i actually left the plane. >> it was like getting smashed in a car wreck. >> very chaotic, no one knew what was going on, flight attendants crying. >> reporter: 150 people were on board the boeing 737, nine of whom suffered
4:15 am
non-life-threatening injuries. we spoke with an aviation expert who used to pilot a 737 using cockpit and exterior diagrams he describes what could have gone wrong. >> you've got a strut that comes down to the wheels so perhaps something in here when the plane touched down and the forces that are on a plane when it touched down may have decided to fail at that particular time. the gear could have failed backwards or it may have collapsed back up this way. >> reporter: the damage was extensive. the landing gear collapsed upwards into the fuselage damaging the electronics bay which houses avionics and other equipment. ntsb investigators already started examining the flight data and cockpit voice recorders. southwest says the boeing 737 was inspected just last week. the airline added that it is working with both the ntsb and boeing in a preliminary investigation.

she would be enormously proud of him for that, and he's doing everything that she told me that she had told him and it's just remarkable that this tremendous closeness between them is now so evidence and it's quite obvious that william will translate this into the new heir and the new prince as well when he's raising him and we'll remember all the words diana told him and mentored him on a daily basis with their close friendship and their close warmth between them and the mentoring and the love and i can just see that translating into the new prince and william will do it beautifully. >> you can imagine that william has thought very much thought a lot about his mother during this very special time in his life, especially yesterday when he, when introducing his son to the world. lana, thank you so much. great to see you. so coming up next on "new day," he is only 2 days old that

4:37 am
down. what does that mean for you? joining me from the white house to talk about this as well as other major issues facing the president is white house press secretary mr. jay carney. jay, let me welcome you to "new day," thanks for coming on. >> chris, i appreciate it. congratulations on your show and it is indeed a new and glorious day in washington to see a reduction in humidity down here. >> it would be very nice. i do know it's easy to get right into the weeds of politics about this, but for this discussion, let's try and keep it on the people who are going to be affected by this speech and not so much the partisan back and forth. people hear enough about that every day. this speech that the president's going to give that is supposed to set out the new plan, people will hear this and say hasn't he reset the plan like three, four times in the last year? what will make this time different for american families? >> i think the question is appropriate and in a way the answer is contained within it. the president will speak about
4:38 am
the very same consistent themes that he's been talking about ever since he was a new senator from illinois and gave a speech at knox college in 2005 and laid out the challenges economically and focusing on the stresses the middle class feels and even before the great recession, chris, back in 2005 you had a situation where middle class incomes were stagnating, flatlining. folks in the middle class felt stressed, they didn't know how they'd send their kids to college or meet their payments even as the wealthiest most affluent americans were seeing their incomes increase dramatically and that situation was only exacerbated by the great recession and now we have made some significant progress since the recession ended, since the economy began growing steadily and since we've seen over the past 40 months 7.2 million private sector jobs created but we have more work to do and we need to focus that work on the middle class because america's greatness came from the dramatic expansion and
4:39 am
solidifying of the middle class in the 20th century. we need to see that happen again in the 21st because if we don't we will not be at our strongest. the president wants to focus on what we can do to help the middle class. >> let's go specifically what can be done, i know you can't take the speech apart but thematically here, middle class families, the redefault rate on mortgages even after modified very high, the ability to get their kid to colleges, getting screwed up down there in congress. is the president going to offer a solution for mortgage stress? is there a new answer for these college loans? does he have anything in this speech for people on those points? >> well, let me just address the college loan situation. >> yes. >> we are very optimistic that there has been a deal reached in the senate to resolve the situation regarding the loan rates for students across the country, and we believe that it will come together and we've been pushing for it, the president insists on it so that
4:40 am
students and their families across the country won't see their loan rates double. so that represents progress. >> is it not a teaser rate and not just going to jump a year or so from now? you know this is the most important expenditure for families after their mortgage. >> absolutely. the answer is the compromise coming together in the senate does ensure that rates remain low because that's what the president insists on and what leaders in both parties said they want to see happen but i think it's a great question, chris, because it goes to more that we need to do to make sure that college remains within reach for middle class families and families striving to get into the middle class. you know college costs have been soaring and this has put huge pressure on middle class families, even as we see more americans going to college than ever, the costs of college continues to rise and we need to address that and there are ways we can do that and the president will talk about that and talk about it more specifically in future speeches and proposals that he makes. on the housing situation we've
4:41 am
seen housing come back substantially from the depths in the wake of the bursting of the housing bubble. we've seen home prices rise and more people see their mortgages come out from underwater. there are millions of american families who still have underwater mortgages who could benefit from refinancing at low interest rates if congress would work with the president and act to enable them to do that. he's been pushing that proposal and will push it again. what's good for the economy is good for the families. >> let's get in on that. the criticism before this speech is offered by speaker boehner is hey, don't talk about it. come work with us. the american public are sitting out there, washington dysfunction has become synonymous with washington. how do we know that the president can get anything done in congress when he hasn't shown that kind of leadership to this point? >> first of all i strongly disagree with the last point you made. look what happened since the president took office. the worst recession since the great depression has been
4:42 am
reversed, the fastest pace of job growth we've seen in decades and recession after recession, economic growth has been consistent for quarter after quarter. again, 7.2 million jobs. we've seen the automobile industry on the verge of collapse in this country, saved, revitalized and now creating jobs in america and selling great cars around the world. we've seen the housing situation stabilize and begin to improve. we've seen affordable care act passed that will provide access to insurance for millions of americans who didn't otherwise have it and benefits for other millions of americans. there is more work to do. i would also say on the point of cooperating and making this congress work, don't forget at the beginning of this year, the president reached a deal with congress, including republicans on congress, but for the first time in 20 years republicans agreed to the basic principle that our tax code was out of whack and the wealthiest needed to pay more and that happened and we finally introduced tax
4:43 am
fairness into our code on january 1st. we can do more. meanwhile by the way in terms of the progress we've made the deficit's been coming down at the fastest pace since demobilization after world war ii. so let's be clear -- >> those are all good indicators. >> we had halved the deficit with president obama. he's done it on his own when congress didn't cooperate. >> the point of criticism doesn't go to the fact that the president has done nothing in terms of leadership. it's that the condition in washington speaks to a need for leadership, no vote on immigration, this crap with the student loans that they even made it an issue down there is so appalling to so many american families that they should be figuring out how to make college loans deductible like we do mortgages, that's what many families believe. that's where that point goes to that kind of leadership, how do you think the president can communicate to the american people that he can get things done with what we see every day
4:44 am
down there? >> i think by engaging the american people, by keeping the focus on the issues that the american people care about and by working with members of congress of both parties to press them to work with them to get the things done that the american people care about. in the end, members of congress respond to their constituents and i think a perfect example is immigration reform. the fact is if the president hadn't been reelected the policy of the republican party would still be on immigration reform, self-deportation, that was the policy the republican nominee put forward last year so chances for comprehensive immigration reform would be at zero. instead we see a situation because of the president's leadership and the unbelievably strong leadership of a bipartisan group in the senate we have a bill emerged from the senate that represents a real chance to deal with this issue. >> jay, when do you think you get a vote on immigration? >> i wouldn't pick a day but i believe that not because the president says so but because he's leading, not because any
4:45 am
individual republican senator says so because they're leading, enough pressure will be brought to bear on house republicans that they will act and we will see comprehensive immigration reform arrive on the president's desk so he can sign it. there's a coalition of business leaders, of labor leaders, of church, faith leaders, of law enforcement leaders who say we need to do this for our economy and middle class. that's the thing the president believes provides a template for action moving forward on the economy. he'll tuck about that in gaylesburg and focus on the economy. >> people need to see the men and women in washington are working for them again and everybody is looking to the president for leadership. jay carney, thank you for your introduction on "new day." hope to have you back. >> thanks, chris, take care. >> all the best. coming up on "new day" the sergeant who released those bloody pictures of the boston bombing suspect learns what his punishment is to be for now. what does it mean for his job? we'll take you through it.

4:51 am
during that time, murphy's superiors will decide what further punishment, if any, he is likely to face. jason carroll, cnn, framingham, massachusetts. >> that's a tough one. did he have the right to do it? probably not. administrative rules, protocol. but was it right to do it? >> moral, professional restrictions and guidelines playing a part into this. if you ask people on the street they probably feel differently than what the law says. >> that's why it will take a little time. coming up on "new day," breaking news, edward snowden may be leaving the moscow airport any moment. we'll go live to moscow for the latest development. you'll want to see it. too close for comfort at 30,000 feet. how did this guy handle this very awkward situation? we'll show you more. >> look at his face. alert.

out of moscow, have they given nsa leaker edward snowden permission to leave? he's been there for weeks. does this mean they're going to give him asylum. the pope visiting a sacred shrine in brazil this morning. here are questions about what is being done to keep him safe. we'll be live in rio. we have a big political story bubbling up here, specifically in new york city, remarkable political development. anthony weiner and his new sexting scandal. weiner is rejecting calls to drop out of the new york city mayoral race. that's not what is really remarkable to this story, at least not to me, it's the show of support from his wife, huma abedin that has turned so many and stunned them. pamela brown is following the developments for us this morning. >> reporter: weiner's wife, huma abedin is seen as one of his biggest assets. she forgives her husband, she
5:03 am
says that's a powerful assist but is it enough to save his campaign? >> anthony's made some horrible mistakes. both before he resigned from congress and after. but i do very strongly believe that that is between us. >> reporter: anthony weiner's wife, huma abedin have asked voters to forgive her husband as she has. >> it took a lot of work and a whole lot of therapy. >> reporter: the disgraced congressman once again guilty of the same behavior that publicly humiliated his wife back in 2011 while she was pregnant. huma abedin addressed the newly surfaced allegations in a very public way. >> i love him. i have forgiven him. i believe in him and as we have said from the beginning, we are moving forward. >> reporter: weiner admitting to online sex chats with women after resigning from congress
5:04 am
and undergoing therapy. >> i have said that other texting photos were likely to come out. today they have. while some of the things that have been posted today are true and some are not, there is no question that what i did was wrong. >> reporter: weiner's latest apology came after new pictures and text messages with a 22-year-old woman surfaced on the gossip website thedirty.com. he used carlos danger to carry on a sexually tense relationship last summer. >> while some of the things that have been posted today are true and some are not, there is no question that what i did was wrong. >> reporter: back in april when weiner announced candidacy for new york mayor, he said more allegations could emerge. >> if reporters want to try to find more, i can't say they're not going to be able to find another picture. >> reporter: with the continued possibility of more texts, there's no telling if abedin's defense of her husband will help resurrect his political career.
5:05 am
under mounting pressure to withdraw from his opponents and "the new york times" as well as the "new york daily news" anthony weiner is making it clear he plans on staying in the race. based on the polls he's a top contender in the new york mayoral race but it's unclear how these latest developments will impact voters. chris? >> pamela, thank you very much. let's figure it all out. joining me now is republican consultant margaret hoofer and cnn contributor john avalon. very nice to have you here. let's deal with the essential question. do you believe, miss hoover, that anthony weiner stays in the race? >> i believe he stays in the race and i believe, to quote a joke somebody said to me last night, huma-nizes him. i think she saved his campaign. in this race all he needs to do is be in the top two to make the runoff. this may blow over. to the extent it does, is his
5:06 am
wife who saved the campaign. >> do you want him to win the ticket? >> it actually may make it easier for one of the republican candidates frankly to run against anthony weiner, although there are vulnerable democrats in the top two. i'm not just saying it because i hope the most vulnerable democrat wins. i do think there are a couple of republicans that would make great mayors. new yorkers are tough people. you forgive people and you let things sweep under the carpet. >> they're low expectations for politicians. >> yes mr. avalon, i understand you benefit from a loving and generous wife in your own life but you do not believe huma was enough. >> no. no, i don't. look, this really cuts to the core of the argument he's been making about his candidacy, give me a second chance. now he's saying i want a third chance, maybe a fourth, fifth, sixth chance. he lied to his wife. after all that public contrition. she may stand by him today but at the same point she's got to be thinking what's next? what are the other shoes to drop? the only person who can take him
5:07 am
out this race is the democratic primary voters. >> why isn't this a situation where it's all about us, all about the media and the blood lost and this being easier to cover than the actual issues in the campaign? we know he had a high negative already, 37% in the last poll. so people were unfavorable but had allowed him in the race and his numbers were moving. huma said the magic words, i love, i forgive, i believe. could this just be important to us because it's easy to cover but the voters say let's get on with it, what about me? >> i think you raise a great point about media always focusing on sex. it's easier to cover a sex scandal as opposed to a financial scandal. the fact that anthony weiner is surrounded by press wherever he goes is a real issue. but i think this could be a bridge too far even for the most cynical street wise new york voter. >> it's so clear how much he loves the media attention. he had so many opportunities to say but this shouldn't be about
5:08 am
me, this is about the mother in queens, the family in the bronx. he could have pivoted, used the spotlight to make it more about new yorkers and the better new york he wants to lead and he didn't. >> think about the name he chose, carlos danger. it's hilarious. it's a serious psychological tell. he knows -- it's an impulse. he knows it's dangerous. he's mocking the contrition with that. >> if it's not jumping on defending -- >> he's your husband, what, that's not fair. >> as a columnist we get to be pop psychologists. >> i want to say we're talking about the royal baby. first i want to talk about your baby. >> here we go. >> god bless going forward. great to have you both on the show. hope this didn't stress you out too much. >> no, no, no. the baby loves it. >> we have baby in london, baby
5:09 am
over here. we're babefied. it's a word. look it up. >> we are baby crazy, that's for sure. thanks so much, chris. it's been a busy first day home for the new prince. baby cambridge is on the move this morning. the new royal has left kensington palace with his parent, duchess catherine and prince william. let's get more from max foster who is outside kensington palace for us today. hi, max, what's the latest. >> reporter: babefied. totally babefied. i love that. the latest is prince harry who lives in kensington palace as well has met the baby. the duke and duchess have just left kensington palace with the baby. william wasn't driving this time. he was in the front seat. mother and baby were in the back seat. we're assuming they're going to go out and relax in the countryside somewhere away from london, from this hubbub.
5:10 am
a bit frustratinfrustrating, no on names. we were hoping we'd get that after the queen visited earlier. >> and also remind viewers who are up on all the locations that we've been talking about so much surrounding the royal baby, buck bucklebury is an important place for both she and william. >> yes, exactly. so the middletons live in bucklebury. it's a secluded home, absolutely private. the paparazzi can't get anywhere near it. they did spend a lot of time there during the pregnancy. it was a way of getting away from everyone. it was important that kate could relax and do that there. she's very close to her mom. we saw her mom arriving yesterday with a big beaming smile on the way out. i think they'll go back there and spend some time getting to know the baby a bit more. then in about a week and a half,
5:11 am
william has to go back to work. will they go back to west wales, a long way away from william's family and carol? >> it is different, far away from their families in a different pace of life than what they have to get used to living in london. we have to talk about the big visit that the royal baby had this morning, his great grandmother. >> absolutely. it's very symbolic visit. it was interesting. we weren't told about it officially but we learned it was going to happen. the queen is head of state in this country and this little baby will one day follow in his footsteps. william and the queen, she close inde indeed. that would have been a remarkable meeting to have seen. the queen meeting a future king for the first time.
5:12 am
also seeing her beloved grandson as a parent for the first time. she's a great grandparent already but this would have been special for her as well. so it would have been lovely to be a fly on the wall in there. but it really cleared the way for william and kate to leave london, now that the queen and harry in particular, because they're so close, have met the baby. >> i think that's an excellent point. a special moment for all of them. there's a lot going on in this first full day for this cute little baby. we'll have much more on the royal baby at the bottom of the hour, including a look at his famous awn the and uncle and the role they'll play in his life. first back to chris in new york. breaking news about the nsa leaker, edward snowden, given documents that will allow him to leave the airport in russia. he's been holed up there you'll remember for close to a month. phil black is on the phone from moscow, tracking these new developments for us. phil, can you hear me?
5:13 am
>> reporter: yes, chris, i've got you. it looks very much like edward snowden, the nsa leaker will be walking or leaving moscow airport today. you may remember one week ago he officially applied for temporary asylum in russia. as part of that process we have expected for some weeks now, he would at some point receive paperwork that would allow him to leave the airport while that official application for asylum is processed. while the application could take some months, it was always expected that he would receive a document that would officially allow him to enter the country and wait in russia while the application is being considered. we've been told he's received those documents, that paperwork that will allow him, after more than a month, to leave the transit area here at moscow airport and into russia. it's expected that will happen sometime today. we do not know how, we do not know if we will get to see him. but he has received the paperwork, he will finally be
5:14 am
able to leave this airport. thank you, chris. >> phil, let me ask you a follow-up on this. to be clear, documents to leave the airport, does that mean the same thing as temporary asylum in moscow? could it mean something else, that he's headed somewhere else? >> this is an interim measure, a short-term official status that will allow him to enter the country officially because he doesn't have a passport, he doesn't have travel documents. he's effectively stateless at the moment. these documents will allow him to enter russia for the duration it takes to properly assess his formal asylum application. that could take up to three months. this is the documentation that will allow him to enter the country while that formal application for temporary asylum in this country is officially considered. >> okay. phil black, thank you very much. this is still a step you have to look at as the russians doing something that's not necessarily u.s. interest in terms of what they want. i appreciate the reporting. get back to us if you hear
5:15 am
