>> boy, a lot going on in the world this morning. look who's up early to check it out. i'm christi paul. and i'm victor blackwell. it's 6:00 on "new day saturday." >> you're gripping that cup. >> because i'm so cold. >> it's cold here in the studio. first thing this morning, three years, think about this, three years after american troops pulled out of iraq, american military advisers are heading back in. >> the first of 300 advisers will arrive and start working today. >> the mission is to help stop sunni militants who have run town an town, about 40 miles near baghdad this morning. >> an aide is calling for iraqis to unite to this threat. they're responding, thousands

are enlisting to join this battle. >> the militants are issuing their own call, putting out a new propaganda video which reportedly shows recruits to join them. the president is telling cnn no amount of fire power can hold iraq together if iraq's leaders don't unite. >> the isis leaders are in control of mosul. >> it might as well be another world away. cnn's arwa damon talked to a man exclusively who was able to get out. he said life there now is a living nightmare. >> reporter: look at this clothes, he's not iraqi. he points it's not his real name. but his wife and children are still in mosul and could be slaughtered. he's wanted by isis just escaped with this video he shot on his

phone. he believes the man he shot was isil. he said he's going from mosul to baghdad to jerusalem. it's a rare glimpse into the murky world of isis and how it solidified its grasp. >> you see the kid is giving the isis leader a kiss. >> reporter: some of the women were even throwing chocolate on them and shouting you saved us from the sectarian army from maliki's army. it's because it harmed the people, put too much pressure on them. it's those actions that turn terrorists into here rose. heros. he said he would already be betrayed. men who wear three-quarter pants get blast, he says. if there was internet, you would

see the worst of their torture. women can't go out without a male guardian. and he is still shocked his city fell so fast. there were only 200 to 300 isis fighters and 40,000 to 50,000 iraqi security forces. but after fighting for three days, they appeared, he says. this is special operations for the anti-terrorism unit. after moving through, sleeper cells are activated. they are iraqi. all the groups fighting the americans from the start are now back and with isis, he explains. maliki's armies are fighting. it's my see, he pauses, his voice starts to crack. the country is destroyed. it's lost, he said, disbelieve it, after a thousand years it won't come back. his eyes filled with tears as he

adds the city of mosul wants the city of profits. and in a day and night, it turns into a city of ghosts and nightmares. >> arwa damon joins us now from the iraqi city of erbil. arwa, what's the situation like where you are? >> reporter: well, erbil is in the autonomous region of iraqi kurdist kurdistan. that's why we've seen that in the area of doha for example. because it's not been a division of the sectarian divisions that have plagued the rest of the country, but also by the large as the fighting source known as the peshmerga. and the peshmerga have are moved into many of the areas abandoned by the iraqi forces, mainly kurdish areas. you get a very different dynamic

up here than you do the rest of the country, victor. >> are, was real quickly, you mentioned that that man you spoke exclusively with. his wife and children are still in mosul. what is the possibility that he'll be able to get them out? and why were the people in mosul so welcoming to isis? >> reporter: well, to start with your second question first, welcoming them because as that person was telling you us, as many people were telling us they were so disinchanted by the iraqi military forces who they felt had an unnecessary heavy hand dealing with the population, conducting mass arrests, targeting the sunnis. they felt the isis fighters were coming in to isolate from maliki's shia army. but isis very quickly moving to implement and harsh interpretation of sharia law and now we're seeing growing fears that it's going to try to become even structure when it comes to

dealing with the civilian population. that's not anything. that the vast majority of iraqis don't want to see at this stage. why this man can't get his family out, again, one of the problems that a lot of people are facing. there's no safe space that he can afford to move his family. where we are, rent is extremely expensive. a lot can't afford it. and they're making this decision that they don't want to be forced to live inside a tent. >> arwa damon, thank you so much, that you've been able to keep us informed of what's going on here. we appreciate it. now, let's talk about president obama because he does have a message for iraq. he said you need a unify position. >> cnn's kate bolduan spoke one-on-one with president obama. kate, good morning. >> christi, victor, i started asking the president about prime

minister nuri al maliki who the president just a few months ago commended for ensuring an inclusive and democratic iraq but maliki has done none of that. how can anything get fixed there with him in power. >> we gave iraq the chance to have an inclusive democracy to work across sectarian lines to provide a better future for their children. and unfortunately, what we've seen is a breakdown of trust. there's no doubt that there has been a suspicion for quite sometime now, among sunnis that they have no access to, using the political process to deal with their grievances. and that is in part the reason why a better armed and larger number of iraqis security forces melted away.

when an extremist group, isis, started rolling through the western portions of iraq. so part of the task now is to see whether iraqi leaders are prepared to rise above sectarian motivations. to come together, compromise. if they can't, there's not going to be a military solution to this problem. there's no amount of american fire power that's going to be able to hold the country together. and i made that very clear to mr. maliki and all the other leadership inside of iraq. >> but by go into the country to support this iraqi government, to support iraqi forces now, there's a real risk that you will likely be seen as supporting the shiite side. isn't that inflaming the tensions further and doing exactly what isis won't? >> yeah, actually not. the terms at which we're willing to go in as advisers, initially

to do an assessment of do they still have a functioning chain of command. and is their military still capable, particularly in some of the western and northwestern regions of country. but what we also said in a joint operations center that we might set up, in any advising that we may do if we don't see sunni, shia and kurd representation in the military command structure. if we don't see sunni, shia and kurd political support for what we're doing, then we won't do it. the terms at which we send in any advisers would be dependent on us seeing that within the military and within the political structure that there remains a commitment to a unified and inclusive iraqi government and armed forces. >> no matter what happens in iraq, you can realistically protect the national security interests of united states without also going into syria

where this threat emanated from? >> i think it's important for to us distinguish between a counterterrorism effort that is ongoing. dealing with al qaeda and the remnants that still exist in the fatah, creating platforms, taking targeted strikes where necessary. gathering intelligence. all that work has to be done -- would have to be done even in the crisis in iraq wasn't occurring. and there's no doubt that the problem in syria is one that we've been paying a lot of attention to over the last couple years. as you see jihadists coming in from europe, as far as australia, to get trained, and then going back in their home countries. this is something we've been deeply concerned about. part of the reason we've been supporting the moderate opposition effort in syria is to make sure there are forces that are countering some of the games that some of these extremist

organizations have made inside of syria. t that's different from whether we had the capacity, for example, to send our own troops into syria. that's different from some of the decisions that we are making with respect to how do we pull iraq together. >> finally, you really believe in your gut that this change can happen, that they can unify in iraq? >> i think we'll know soon enough. they don't have a lot of time. there's a timetable that is in place under their constitution. the good news is that so far, at least, all the parties have said is that we want to abide by the constitution. you had tpre-eminent shia leade inside of iraq, the grand ayatollah al sistani saying we

need to follow a constitution and form a government quickly. so they had the chance. i think ultimately what the vast majority of americans understand, we can't do it for them. and we certainly can't redeploy tens of thousands of troops to keep a lid on the problem if the people themselves don't want to solve it. >> president said he'll know soon enough but he does seem skeptical. we also had an interesting talk and sometimes, personal talk, about the struggles of working families. this is all ahead of a summit on the top take he and the first lady are hosting monday. we'll have much more of that full interview on "new day." christi, victor. >> kate, thank you. the united states is investing hundreds of millions of dollars in the future of children. not for education, but illegal immigration to stem the tide of

they're also pledging $161 million for security and governance issues. all of this water, about a quarter billion dollars, senior lawmakers in washington still don't think that will be enough to stop the problem. senator john mcclain is one of those lawmakers, and he aired his concerns yesterday. >> right now, with the number of thousands that are crossing the border, that are sort of -- that have left central america and are on their way here, it's a roughly 15-day trip, that if we stopped tomorrow, there would still about that backlog that would be coming here. so it's got to stop. and it's got to stop immediately. >> white house has also said that this increase has led to misinformation by smuggling groups that say if you come now, you will be allowed to stay. that's simply not the case. >> so i'm hearing $100 million

to reintegrate these kid. >> to keep them there. >> to keep them there and 161 million ford this regional security fund. that doesn't stop the kids from coming. what else are they doing besides giving money? >> absolutely not. that's part of the issues, they're not ready for the string of migrants. the problem, though, is this classic case not in my back yard. they tried to do it in virginia. the community there pushed back. they wanted to put it an-n an historically black college. and we've heard stories of skab piece, skin issues there in these facilities, really, really poor conditions. and they also said that they feared for their own security there. really the root concern, guys, is in central america, and the white house is trying to do as much as they can do address these problems. they're pledging a lot of money and they're hoping this will relieve the problem but you have

senator mccain saying they're going to keep coming and coming. as long as there's violence in these countries, the american dream -- >> you need to give the money to the government. but if it's the smugglers doing it. >> on average, $5,000 a person for these people. it's a money issue for the smugglers as much as an misinformation. >> nick valencia, thanks. one church votes, the new messa messa message presbyterian leaders are sending to israel. and the world cup, tomorrow, challenge number one, how can they cut one of the best soccer players on the planet. wow! the only person i know that says that is...lisa? julie?! at discover, we treat you like you'd treat you.

many as 300 u.s. military advisers to iraq this morning, president obama is urging iraqi leaders to come up with a politically inclusive solution to the nation's crisis. >> part of the task now is to see whether iraqi leaders are prepared to rise above sectarian motivations. to come together, to compromise. if they can't, there's not going to be a military solution to this problem. >> lawmaker in washington say iraqi president nuri al maliki has been unable to govern exclusively with shia and kurds. let's talk about this. the author of "obama in the middle east. : the end of america's moment, the rise and fall of al qaeda." thanks for being with us. i want to ask you first and

foremost, how effective do you think the 300 advisers can be to the country. >> well, let's be blunt, i don't think 300 american special forces, as technique as they are, could change the metrics of. president obama is sending a message to the iraqis that the united states will help, as long agency it's iraqis will help themselves. the the reason why iraq has been able to do as well as it has, because it's been able to portray itself as this fear head of sunni arabs who feel margealized. and president obama's approach is very sensible, it's based on a complex reading of iraqi politics. it's telling iraqi leadership,

you must take ownership of your country. you must rise up to the historic challenge. you must compromise and reconcile a solution here. very, very critical. why argue that the military track and the political track are enter relate progress on the political track, an inclusive government, would be translated on the battlefield. and in fact, without a genuine inclusive government, islamic state or solid al qaeda fighters would remain deeply embedded within the sunni arab community that feels very angry at the policied carried out by nuri al maliki. >> you talk about the interconnectivity of the political arms of this. we say as politics, the military fighting will improve. but the president said he wants

iraq to have a central type of command with sunni, and kurds. do you think that's even possible in the future? >> no, victor, you're absolutely correct, it's not possible. but remember, if iraq is to be rescued if the iraqi state is to survive, if the iraqi institutions are not going to disintegrate further. this is baptism by fire. for the last years, unfortunately, the prime minister nuri al maliki cannot invest critical effort in creating a professional army. an army with a unifying identify. the reason why the army or some elements of the army have disintegrated have not challenged isis because the ideology is not there. the professionalism is not there. most of the sunni appointments by the prime minister were based on political concertainations,

so, yes, the 300 american advisers would help to basically begin the process, the difficult and prolonged process that, first of all, you need for the iraqi senior leadership to sit down and basically agree on a national unity government. it's not easy. it's not going to happen overnight but let's remember, the surge, the sweeping surge of the al qaeda fighters has been checked so far. the reality is now, it's a protracted issuen warfare. neither side is willing. you want to roll back the advances made by the islamic state, you need to put the political process in place, you need to create a national unity government. and guess what, turn sunni arabs against the islamic state. in the same way that american forces between 2006 and 2011 did. and by the time the american

listen to this. a one-ton shark is bearing down on florida. her name is kathryn. she's 14 feet long. good news here, people are tracking her. and we can tell you where she's headed next. so there i was again, explaining my moderate to severe chronic plaque psoriasis to another new stylist. it was a total embarrassment. and not the kind of attention i wanted. so i had a serious talk with my dermatologist about my treatment options. this time, she prescribed humira-adalimumab.

humira helps to clear the surface of my skin by actually working inside my body. in clinical trials, most adults with moderate to severe plaque psoriasis saw 75% skin clearance. and the majority of people were clear or almost clear in just 4 months. humira can lower your ability to fight infections, including tuberculosis. serious, sometimes fatal events, such as infections, lymphoma, or other types of cancer have happened. blood, liver and nervous system problems, serious allergic reactions, and new or worsening heart failure have occurred. before starting humira, your doctor should test you for tb. ask your doctor if you live in or have been to a region where certain fungal infections are common. tell your doctor if you have had tb, hepatitis b, are prone to infections, or have symptoms such as fever, fatigue, cough, or sores. you should not start humira if you have any kind of infection. make the most of every moment. ask your dermatologist about humira, today. clearer skin is possible.

obviously. the scientists just don't as much as the predator. >> researchers are tracking catherine. the science behind tracking sharks. >> the shark is named cather reason. >> reporter: 1400 feet long, cath eerine is a great white on the move. by the looks of it, she's got her sights set on texas. last summer, she was in massachusetts clocking in pings all the way down the eastern seaboard. last month, pinging several times in central florida, now the gulf of mexico, possibly arrives in texas in the coming weeks. that's more than 4,000 miles. and the reason they're doing this is because they're trying to unravel the mystery behind the great white shark in the atlantic ocean.

they want to figure out where and when these sharks are breeding. and also where their nurseries are located to protect the areas. very few get the chance to come this close to a shark of this magnitude this safely. people across the u.s. are fascinated with following this ocean giant just as vacation season heats up with plans to venture out into the ocean water. earlier this month, a 22-year-old woman was bitten by an an unidentified shark while tubing in ft. lauderdale, florida. >> i'm in the water. she's bit by a shark. she's bleeding anywhere. there's nowhere for me to go, i'm right next to her, i could be next. >> reporter: this photo taken right after the attack showing torn muscle and crushed bone. and just last week, a texas teen had a run-in with a shark that was swimming dangerously close off the shore of galveston. >> something bumped into my back and i thought this could be a

shark. >> reporter: and it was, the 14-year-old emerged from the water with teeth marks on the right side of her back. the next hour of "new day" starts right now. so much of what we're seeing on the southern border is the result of a deliberate, misinformation campaign is propagated by criminal syndicates in central america. the secretary's absolutely committed to making sure that our troops have the legal protections. and he would not do that on a nod and a wink. you're very powerful. and with power comes a great deal of responsibility. and you're being made an example of today, because of the power you have in this space. alrighty.

as i said, i hope the coffee is doing its job. 7:00 right now in the east. you've made it to saturday. take a nice deep breath. i'm christi paul. >> i'm victor blackwell. this is "new day saturday." starting this hour with this humanitarian crisis. the u.s. is now donating more than $250 million to stop it. this mass surge of child immigrants trying to enter the u.s. i guess on this ill-informed belief that they'll be allowed to come in and stay. >> and stay. the white house just announced it's spending more than $250 million to help countries such as honduras, el salvador, guatemala. they keep their citizens from leaving. at least they hope that's what this money is going to do. the white house revealed the plan on the same day joe biden was in south america speaking about the crisis.

>> reporter: vice president joe biden meeting with leaders in guatemala as the obama administration struggles to deal with the growing immigration crisis. thousands of unaccompanied children like the ones we met along the texas/mexico border are risking their lives to enter the u.s. illegally. biden's visit is part of president obama's response to a growing problem. the administration hoping to quash rumors driving families and children north chasing a dream. >> so much of what we're seeing on the southern border is the result of a deliberate, misinformation campaign that is propagated by criminal syndicates in central america. >> reporter: nearly 1,000 undocumented and unaccompanied kids are piece housed in facilities throughout the u.s., according to new congressional figures obtained by cnn. their concrete holdin cells constantly full. from october to june, have,000 unaccompanied children have been

caught at the u.s. border with mexico. double the number recorded in the same period last year. a two-prong approach from the president. he's ordering the department of homeland security to revamp its efforts to process and handle the flow of undocumented kids. there's also promise to tackle the problem at the root of the crisis. the u.s. is pledging to partner up with mexico and central american countries providing millions of dollars of support. >> it is not a good idea for people to make the trek through mexico and to appear at the southern border in the rio grande valley in the united states to think that once they're obtained by customs or border patrol that they will be allowed into the country. they will not. >> reporter: back on the stretch of the rio grande some of the stream seems endless. some of the youngest border crossers come with their families. others by themselves.

and united states is scrambling on this side of the border to deal with the problem to find space to handle all the kids. >> federal authorities expect as many as 80,000 children. enough to pack a football stadium will try to cross this year. cnn's nick valencia is here with us. is this obviously a real challenge four u.s. immigration officials but they're trying to, i guess, i don't want to say throw some money at it but invest in the solution. >> it's a huge challenge. and it seems that the united states was not prepared for this influx of immigrants. that seems clear as the days go on. part of the issue is opening up detention facilities not just for unaccompanied minors but family groups that came across with their children. the administration is posed to open up facilities as far away as virginia. the problem, not in my back yard. the communities don't want these facilities there. st. paul college a knew defunct

historically black university they were going to put this facility there. house these family groups, but the community was up in the arms. outraged at the so-called security concerns. disease concerns as well. we've seen these facilities. deplorable conditions inside many of them. senator john mccain also highlighted the difficulties yesterday when he spoke to the media. >> they're looking at d.o.d. facilities now to handle the overflow. they're even going to move some of these people as far away as an army base in the state of washington. and they're rapidly running out of those facilities. so, it is -- it is a crisis of enormous proposition. >> and what the white house has done, as victor and christi were mentioned, $250 million proposed to these governments including honduras, el salvador and guatemala where the majority of migrants are coming from. that's supposed to go to the

reintergration process. we hope. >> thank you so much. >> got it. all right. let's talk about this crisis in iraq now. president obama is sending in man power to try to stop the country from being torn apart from islamic militants. >> the first of up to 300 military advisers arrive in iraq today. some of the military personnel also at the embassy in baghdad are going to join them on this mission. but there could be a hitch. let's bet more on that from cnn correspondent barbara starr. good morning, barbara. >> christi, victor, the plan has been announced but now the pentagon has to work out the details. >> reporter: >> reporter: at the whos podium it sounds easy. >> we're prepared to send a small number of military advisers, up to 300. >> reporter: but 24 hours can the plan already be in trouble,

the pentagon acknowledging it doesn't agreement with the iraq government to send in those advisers, but insisting they are certain they will get one. >> we're pursuing something in writing. the second is absolutely committed to making sure our troops have the legal protections. and he would not do that on a nod and a wink. >> reporter: for now, the first troops will be drawn from those already in the country. as the fighting rages, u.s. officials already know plenty else could go wrong. one senior defense official telling cnn the whole mission is not without risk. if the legal problem is resolved, some u.s. troops will go to northern iraq, the stronghold of isis sunni militant fighters. how much will small numbers of u.s. special forces really be able to see? and the big concern, u.s. troops are not supposed to be in combat, but what if they are

attacked? cnn has learned that teams flying off the carrier "george h.w. bush" would be able to fly off on thosing missions. and no guarantee that any wounded would get medical care in that golden hour typical in a war zone. >> if somebody gets hurt, wherever they get hurt around the world, we do what we can to get them to medical care as soon as possible. >> reporter: u.s. troops are supposed to be collecting intel on what isis is doing inside of iraq. but a senior administration official says potential sanction not restricted to a, quote, specific geographic space. in fact, u.s. reconnaissance flights are looking for isis

weapons and as well as the border. but the big question remains getting an iraqi signature on a document that protects troops that go into iraq. back in 2011, iraqi prime minister nuri al maliki could not deliver his government's signature on such a document so u.s. troops left at that time. now, the question is, can he get the iraqi government to sign on the dotted line. victor, christi. >> barbara starr from the pentagon. thank you. so, coming up, a toddler dies in what appears to be a tragic mistake. appears to be. the father said he left the child in the car. the father is charged with murder. but police now tell cnn there is more to the story. and that the father's explanation just does not make sense. boy, what an uncomfortable day for the famous dr. oz. he had some explaining to do on capitol hill about controversial weight loss supplements. do they work. mayo? corn dogs? you are so outta here!

in suburban atlanta, there's this case it's as perplexing as it is horrifying. murder charges against this man, justin harris. a panicked father shrieking for help. a child watched, though, helplessly as he tried to revive the lifeless body of his 22-month-old soon cooper. >> father said he went to work and forgot his son was in the backseat on a sweltering spring day. it was 88 degrees outside. of course you know that ramps up quickly on the inside of a vehicle. now the police are hinting at the gruesome possibility that the child's death may not be the horrible mistake his father claims. now, let's get the story as they knew it, as investigators knew it on the day of the discovery

from cnn affiliate wxia. >> reporter: witnesses were overwhelmed as they watched the suv turn sharply. as the driver -- >> hopped out of the driver's seat, opened the back door, pulled his child out laid him on the concrete. >> reporter: his 22-month-old son was dead probably long before he tried to resuscitate him. >> it was tough. to see anyone pass, but a small child. >> reporter: his father was supposed to drop him off at day care but instead went to work, apparently forgot his son was in the backseat. >> medical personnel arrived on the scene, determined that the child had apparently been in the father's automobile since about 9:00 this morning. >> reporter: it wasn't until the father was driving home from work, shortly after 4:00 p.m., that he noticed his son in the car seat. >> did you ever have to witness

anything like that in your life? >> this was the first and hopefully the last. >> i know you were working on the story yesterday, what have you heard? >> we both had conversations with that department. i had a conversation with that officer sergeant david pierce. he said a lot has changed since that first story came from the father to police. he says, and i want to put up on the screen, because this stuck out from my conversation, i've been in law enforcement for 34 years, what i know about this case shocks my conscience as a police officer, a father and a grandfather. that opened up so many questions for me. but he says because this is an ongoing investigation, i can't give specifics. i said, let's start from the beginning, was this child in the car at 9:00 a.m. he can no longer confirm was in the car when it happened. was there a stop in between work and home and when the day started? they say they cannot determine

if it was this direct trip. he know that's autopsy has been completed. i said, well, is it heatstroke? he said that the medical examiner's office and the crimes against persons division are still work to determine what the manner and cause of death were for this 22-month-old boy. >> maybe it's inclusive. >> they're still trying to figure out. >> normally, you hear there is charges and then investigation later. this is, this guy was handcuffed at the scene, right? >> you know, the other thing we learned from this conversation, no guarantee that these will be the charges moving forward. there could possibly be additional charges. the charges could be changed. right now, it's first degree child cruelty and felony murder. considering how strong the statement is it shocks his conscience, he said it will shock the conscience of everyone who ahears what happened to this

producer behind saudi arabia. already you've had a major pipeline shut down. you had kurds taking control of fields in the northern part of the country, this isis advance so close to baghdad, even taking over a major refinery. big problems there. the iraqis say all of this oil south of the country is safe. still, when you have that in a major territory that is cause for concern. this is the price of oil so far this year. just this month, oil prices up 4%. and when oil prices rise, gas prices are right behind. look at last june. last summer, $3.60 on average for a gallon of gas in this country. by may, this year, $3.64. today, you're paying $3.68. that's the most expensive june in six years. where are they going? $3.86. christine romans, cnn, new york. these images are shocking an

entire hillside collapsed into a wall of mud and debris. and on the top of your screen, that's a hospital full of patients. >> officials say everybody is safe for the time being. cnn meteorologist karen maginnis there for us now. what's it looking like for them? >> it looks like we've seen so much rainfall that is not surprising. but all across the midwest, very heavy rainfall, in minneapolis, first 20 day of this month which they've got a few more to go, they've already seen 11 inches of rainfall around minneapolis. over the last 24 hours. between 2 or 4 inches of rainfall. typically, minneapolis would see something less than 3 inches of rain. so a powerful amount of rainfall. and just to give you an idea, st. paul, along the mississippi river, it is currently just below 14 feet. flood stage is at 14 feet. and by thursday, they're

well, hope time son your side this morning. 28 minutes past the hour. i'm christi paul. >> i'm victor blackwell. five things you need to know for your "new day." number one, the white house announced the u.s. will spend $250 million to address the tens of thousands of illegal

immigrant children showing up at the border, mistakenly thinking the u.s. will allow them to stay. almost $100 million will go specifically to honduras, guatemala and el salvador. number two, vladimir putin has ordered troupes to carry out a surprise readiness test. 60,000 troops in russia's central military district have been on full combat alert. that's likely to enflame tensions with ukraine. even though russia insist tz there's no military buildup on the borders. if you enjoy flying helicopters and planes, 84,000 acres are now officially a no-fly zone. the national parks areas are banning drones from waters, seashores, sites, all of them. a yacht owner left with his vessel there, wow, $17 million,

110-foot dream in flames. incredibly, this blaze was captured by a hobbyist flying an aerial drone. officials are still trying to figure out what caused this thing. number 5, comedian tracy morgan is now out of the hospital and he's been moved to the uncovered rehab center. morgan suffered broken ribs, broken nose, broken leg. his publicist said that morgan continues to show signs of improvement, but still has a very long way to go. well, leaders in the u.s. and iraq are urging iraq to govern inclusively. the imam told iraqis you need to form an effective government. >> and president obama told kate

bolduan one-on-one that a solution will not work without way political change. >> if there's not able to use this moment where there's already been an election that's now been certify said able to form a government that's is focused and unified on one power, but, rather, keeping the country together and dealing with the crisis, then, you know, there's no amount of american fire power that's going to be able to hold the country together. and i made that very clear to mr. maliki and all the other leadership inside of iraq. >> let's bring in douglas alavon and rick francona. g to have you both with us. >> good morning. >> i want to start with you, douglas, do you think that the president says he needs this central command section with the sunni and kurds and shiites do you think they'll be able to

reconcile with the government soon? >> depends what you mean by soon. the degree of difficulty is very high and iraqi politics is very slow. the formation of isis came in the middle of their certification. and they'll be able to move at light speed, 30 to 60 days, under the best of circumstances where we would see a new government formed so not anytime soon. >> lieutenant colonel francona, i'm wondering, we've listened to several experts say the beginning of this is similar. or looks similar to the vietnam war. do you see any parallels? >> well, anytime you use the term "advisers it just raises the hackels of military personnel. when they say advisers you say, we need more combat troop pipes

don i don't see that's going happen here. these 300 are going in to assess the iraqi capabilities and we're going to term if the iraqi army has the ability to defeat isil. if they don't, we're going figure out how we get them back to that level. but i think everybody is aware of our history with this, and is going to take steps to make sure we don't fall into that trap. >> is the u.s. coming in and working with specifically this, of course, shiite government, is that to the sunnis who are not radicalized who are not with isis, or fighting alongside them, an endorsement of the shiites, the shiite government? we'll go to douglas with that. >> well, it certainly could appear that way. the politics of this is very, very fraught. there's no good narrative. if we start assisting the iraqi army and bombing isil, there's a serious risk we'll be accused of intervening on one side of the

civil war on behalf of the shia. on the other hand if we sid on the sidelines, sheetia will accuse us like in 1999 where we stood by and led saddam kill hundreds of thousands in the south. we've got to accept there's not a good narrative in the interim and we need to deal with it as it comes up. and be very sensitive to politics while discovering that is where the real aspect is. >> arwa damon was in iraq talking to a gentleman listening to one of the isis militants cheering on, saying they're going to go from baghdad to jerusalem. what do you think is their goal. and how big a problem, how big a threat is this, maybe not just to iraq? >> well, you know, they've been very clear in what their goal is, they want to establish the islamic capacity in the whole

area of the levant. that includes areas syria, lebanon, jordan, israel and iraq. if you look at the isis literature and all of their pressure statements, they're taking on the trappings of a state. it's the islamic state of iraq and isham, syria. they have the state, and it's almost like they formed a government. they're not just going to stop with taking over iraq. they plan to take the whole area but they are have to do it in increments. >> let's talk about israel. we've seen the statement, at least from the cabinet members there in iraq, they blame saudi arabia for funding and supporting isis. part of them says supporting them financially, morally and for the outcome of crimes which may qualify as genocide. we know that saudi arabia funds and applies rebels in syria but

denies being supportive of isis. what's the validity of that claim, and what's the impact in this conversation? >> the bottom line is i don't think we know what the validity of the claim is. i think most experts would guess that while the saudi government itself does not fund isil but there are citizens who find ways to funnel money this way. the politics of this are very, very fraught. there are elements between the sectarian cold war between saudi arabia and the gulf states with iraq and iran and syria being the battleground for this. the new proto state, now isil, we've got to take very seriously. we have a lot of things in play. we have the military threat of isil. we have this larger cold war and the dysfunctional politics in iraq and we need to deal with all three of them. >> douglas ollivant and rick

francona, we appreciate your insight. thanks for being here. we know a lot of people watch the show, dr. oz. my mom tells me, hey, you need to ito mate toes. >> and black beans. >> but, dr. oz, talking about food and some pills and some miracles on capitol hill. he got grilled over weight loss miracle promises. did the popular surgeon and tv star go too far? hey, i heard you guys can help me with frog protection? yeah, we help with fraud protection. we monitor every purchase every day and alert you if anything looks unusual. wow! you're really looking out for us. we are. and if there are unauthorized purchases on your discover card, you're never held responsible. just to be clear, you are saying "frog protection" right? yeah, fraud protection. frog protection. fraud protection. frog. fraud. fro-g. frau-d. i think we're on the same page. we're totally on the same page. at discover, we treat you like you'd treat you. fraud protection. get it at discover.com

famous doctor's promise of miracle weight loss products. this week, tv doctor dr. oz was grilled on capitol hill over some of his claims, listen. >> when you feature a product on your show it creates what has become known as the oz effect, dramatically boosting sales and driving scam artists to pop up overnight using false and deseptemberable ads to sell products. while i also know that your plan focuses on healthy eats and exercise, i'm concerned that you're melding use and entertainment. you're very powerful and with power comes a great deal of responsibility. and you are being made an example of today because of the power you have in this space. >> critics say dr. oz pushed the benefits of supplements such as green coffee bean extract on his show without any medical studies to back his claims. dr. oz told senators he believes

in the products, but he has no control over internet scammers who distort his comments. >> these ads take money from trusting viewers, many of whom believe i'm actually selling the items. just to be clear in case it comes up, i've never sold supplements. we often address weight loss because as you all mentioned it affects about two-thirds of the population. the only options i gave was to eat less and move more. >> let's bring in physician and doctor dr. ian smith. dr. ian, good to have you back with us. you. >> good morning, guys. >> good morning. >> people take what dr. oz says as the gospel. has he lost some of his credibility with what the senate is causing the oz effect? >> well, first of all, there's a lot going on right now. i've known mehmet for a long time. mehmet said for a long time that he was too laud da tori.

. mehmet said he should not have used words that were so large and grandiose because people run away with that. he's done his mea culpa. however, i think the bigger issues are the issues of all of these scam artists, marketers, taking clips off of shows. they can take clips of my shows i'm on "the doctors." as you know with television, they can take our clips and also make these kind of claims and sell things because of that. the second thing is this, the ftc is in charge of making sure people don't do these things and they don't go after these people. they have all these companies, facebook and google, why aren't they going after them that support the products? i think that mehmet may have been the one that got the ball rolling a few years ago, but now

it's gone way beyond mehmet. >> now, he did say, didn't he that his attorneys are working, it sounded like around the clock to try to keep these companies from using his likeness and his image. how hard is it to keep up with them? >> it is extremely difficult. i mean, he has sent hundreds and hundreds of letters to the ftc saying stop these companies from doing this. my good friend rachael ray, the same thing is happening to her. people have used things she said in her show and promoted so it's really hard to stop. the problem is the ftc does not have the human resources or the money to be able to pursue all of these people and they don't selectively. and the advertising, if falls through the cracks, anyone can see it's outrageous. >> what's the commonality? you look at the ads and you can tell, what do you need to see that you say that's something that i need to stay away from? >> words that say "miracle,

cure, forever," all of these extreme words, never, never, never. supplements, the fda doesn't regulate supplements, and they work. they may not be studies in the western way that we like to look at studies but eastern civilization for a long time has been using a lot of these supplements in a positive manner to deliver results. now the question is, when are we in america going to be able to say, hey, we don't have all the science to prove that they work. but there's obviously a huge body of evidence and the rest of world that shows us it works, but we've got to find a way to marry the two. there are so many people doing bad things and they can have false claims. >> dr. ian smith, i thank you for helping to clear this up. sometimes, they will say simply as seen on cnn. they won't tell you what the story is about. just that it was mentioned. dr. ian, thank you so much.

militants belonging to isis. they seized town after town. they are south of baghdad. these are gangs isis made. >> the shi'ites are vowing to defend their capital and country. >> militants are putting out propaganda video to urge people to join them in jihad. >> and we have been told, no amount of american fire power can hold iraq together if the iraq's leaders don't unite. >> part of the task now is to see whether iraqi leaders are prepared to rise above sectarian motivations, come together, compromise. if they can't, there's not going to be a military solution to this problem. >> the first initial group of advisers is expected to be very small. >> let's bring in cnn's erin mcpike in washington. they will tell us about what the

advisers and this say big question, erin, on everybody's mind, what they will do once on the ground. >> reporter: christi and victor, the mission is two-fold. to gather intelligence on the ground in iraq. the second is to assist iraqi forces there on the ground and james kirby, the spokesperson, was on "the situation room" yesterday and addressed that. >> the mission is not to go after isil. the mission is assess the state of the iraqi security forces. assess the ground conditions and we need to assess the advising mission. how many advisers we need and where they need to go. the mission of these folks is really to do some good assessment and advice. >> reporter: as you heard there, he had that third point which is really to assess what the united states should be going doing on

ground. >> some experts say no boots on the ground which is semantics. you have 300 advisers on the ground. could this ramp up to military intervention? is there discussion of that at all? >> reporter: victor, president obama has been consistent on this in the last week in the statement and interview with kate bolduan yesterday. the mission is not for combat. >> erin mcpike, thank you. the full interview with president obama airs monday morning on "new day." >> as we said, isis fighters turned to social media to turn to propaganda. they released a video online aimed at muslims in the west to abandon their lives and embrace jihad. it includes testimonials in english from men who identify themselves. >> let's bring in the assistant

professor at georgia tech. jenna, welcome. has anybody been able to determine how effective these videos are? >> i think propaganda videos are effective. al qaeda central has used them to varying degrees of success in its path. it was able to broaden the base of support internationally. i think that is what isis is trying to do with the social media. it has a significant amount of support. it has financial resources, it has considerable support on the ground in iraq. it is really trying to broaden movement to recruit more foreign militants and operatives that are coming in to fight. the group wants to have a lot of people willing to come and fight for their cause. >> we reported that isis fighters are just about 40 miles from baghdad. they have been 40 miles from baghdad for some time now. they quickly went through the

northern areas of iraq. now they are getting to a heavy shi'a area. now they are welcomed into the northern areas of iraq. >> they primarily went through predominately sunni areas. sunni ares minority in iraq overall. it will pose a problem for isis as they get a larger hold across the country. they went into areas where they had support on the ground. there were interestingly, lots of affiliations with sunnis that are an unlikely alliance. former saddam hussein loyalists who would normally not support an organization like isis who has a harsh interpretation of the law and killing civilians and killing shi'as. it has the support of the sunni

awakening. these feel disenfranchised. they see the government hasn't represented the sunnis well. this is one of the main reasons they have been able to have so many groups come on the side which has helped the group to capture the territories. >> can that be changed? how plausible is it that they form a solid government? >> that is a really difficult thing. it is a potential solution, to have a more inclusive government and power in iraq. whether or not nuri al maliki is able to do that. it has plagued iraq since 2003. >> is it each possible with the

dissension with the two groups? >> think to have the representation in government is the first step. many groups giving isis the support and capturing the territory and many participated in the sunni awakening and helped to defeat the groups in iraq, if they show support or promise they might have recognition, i think it might push them away from supporting isis. >> nuri al maliki was seen as the person who could do that. offer reconciliation. he went for consolidation and purged the government of the sunni representatives. is there another shi'a leader who could be the next person to be trusted to start this reconciliation that so many have been waiting? >> i'm not sure who might be a reasonable contender for nuri al maliki. people have discused it. i am really not sure who the

potential contender might be. i think an inclusive government is what is a critical factor to dissuade a lot of existing support that isis has been further support. >> professor jenna jordan, thank you. >> thank you for having me on the show. >> certainly. more than 1 million iraqis have been forced from their homes. to find out ways to help, visit our web site at cnn.com/impact. coming up, more than 80,000 kids, without parents, children alone, will illegally cross the border. the obama administration has a plan to fix it. will it solve the problem. and then homes, streets, businesses, just barely hanging on to solid ground as mud slides take out roadways. look at this. and can the dmv tell you to take off your makeup to get your

along with support, chantix (varenicline) is proven to help people quit smoking. chantix reduced the urge for me to smoke. it actually caught me by surprise. some people had changes in behavior, thinking or mood, hostility, agitation, depressed mood and suicidal thoughts or actions while taking or after stopping chantix. if you notice any of these, stop chantix and call your doctor right away. tell your doctor about any history of mental health problems, which could get worse while taking chantix. don't take chantix if you've had a serious allergic or skin reaction to it. if you develop these, stop chantix and see your doctor right away as some could be life threatening. tell your doctor if you have a history of heart or blood vessel problems, or if you develop new or worse symptoms. get medical help right away if you have symptoms of a heart attack or stroke. use caution when driving or operating machinery. common side effects include nausea, trouble sleeping and unusual dreams. i did not know what it was like to be a non-smoker. but i do now. ask your doctor if chantix is right for you. because you can't beat zero heartburn. woo hoo!

people as far away as an army base in the state of washington. they are rapidly running out of those facilities. d it is a crisis. >> that was senator john mccain talking about the humanitarian and national crisis. more than 50,000 child immigrants. migrants crossing the u.s. border. with the mistaken believe they will come and stay. as many as 30,000 kids are expected before the year is out. now the white house says that the u.s. will dedicate more than $250 billion to help secure that. >> the white house will address the root cause of the migration. cnn's nick valencia has the story for us. we people hear about that money,

they say where is the money going? >> it is a lot of money. $250 million to honduras and el salvador and guatemala where the undocumented minors are coming from. you are looking at pictures from the health and human services of the influx of the migrants. the white house hopes this is used for reintegration as they are deported into the home countries. the administration pledging, christi and victor, the money for the security initiative to help governance and security issues. the violence is blamed for the issue in the central american countries. despite all of this money, senior lawmakers like senator john mccain says this will not stop the problem. >> right now, with the number of thousands that are crossing the

border, that have left central america and on the way here, it is a roughly 15-day trip, if we stopped it tomorrow, there would be the backlog that would be coming here. it has to stop and it has to stop immediately. >> the white house is also accusing crime syndicates of spreading the misinformation. telling them to come to the united states because they will get free entry into the united states. the white house says that is not the case. they are blaming the large influx of the misinformation. >> i know there are some people who will hear that and ask is the u.s. paying to secure the borders in central america instead of securing the u.s. border. is that what is happening here? >> some segments of the united states society don't think this is a good idea. instead you are sending money to a government you may not be able to hold them accountable for

what they spend that money on. who knows if it goes to the migrants and reintegration process. we don't know what that means. part of the problem is detention facilities. where do you keep the thousands of migrants crossing the border. there is a processing problem. this is a picture from wednesday in brownsville, texas. deplorable conditions and upset communities. lawrenceville, virginia, small community there. they proposed to house thousands of family groups. adults had come to this country with children. the community there did not like the idea. they cited security concerns and disease. we are seeing reports of scabies and measles and chickenpox. some border patrol agents said they contracted those illnesses and they were afraid of spreading it to their families. it is a complex issue and headache for the administration. receiving criticism from

lawmakers like mccain. how is the money spent and where is it going for the so-called reintegration process. >> hard to see the kids. >> should they stay or be sent back. the kids in what looked like kennels. nick valencia, thanks very much. take a look at this. bright lights in the sky. clouds swirling around. a look at the lightning images. storm images we have for you. and russian water. floods caused major mudslides and look at this. there's a hospital full of patients threatened sitting near this river. a live report as the earth slips from beneath it. and it feels like your lifeate revolves around your symptoms, ask your gastroenterologist about humira adalimumab. humira has been proven to work for adults

[ male announcer ] don't stop taking eliquis unss your doctor tells you to, as stopping increases your risk of having a stroke. eliquis can cause serious, and in rare cases, fatal bleeding. don't take eliquis if you have an artificial heart valve or abnormal bleeding. while taking eliquis you may bruise more easily and it may take longer than usual for any bleeding to stop. seek immediate medical care

for sudden signs of bleeding like unusual bruising. eliquis may increase your bleeding risk if you take certain medicines. tell your doctor about all planned medical or dental procedures. those three important reasons are why i'm shooting for something better. eliquis.

the grounds that the logo is disparaging to native-americans. >> we have been here before. the u.s. patent office made a similar ruling. that was overturned. here we are today. the washington redskins are still one of the most popular and valuable football teams in america worth some $1.7 billion last year according to "forbes." >> let's talk with sports analyst rick horro. if this stands, this is a big if, what does it mean for the franchise? could it continue selling its current team merchandise? >> i tell you, guys, it is a victory for the lawyers. this is a complicated issue. the trademark and patent folks said there was insufficient evidence earlier as it was appealed and overturned five years ago. this is not just about today, but when the original patents

were applied for in 1966 through 1977. the bottom line is nobody is sure what the ruling will be, but it could happen quickly. in the meantime, the redskins can certainly sell merchandise. the ruling is stayed until the appellate court rules on it. it makes it difficult for them to enforce under federal law. there is state and common law issues, too. don't go printing your t-shirts just yet. >> that is my next question, but i'll move on. what does it do for the other teams? the braves and indians and chiefs? what does it mean to those teams and heritage of those names? >> victor, very interesting distinction. the indians, braves, chiefs, may not be as disparaging. it may not be today, but when the patent was allowed. there are some issues, seminoles as well where you have common ground with those groups and

those particular teams. it's ruling will be confined to this specific issue of the redskins during the time the original patents were applied for. nobody says the issue of disparagement today with the redskins is relevant. that is why it is important. it is when the patent was applied for. that is why the issue is critical to the redskins and nfl. the redskins are very valued. nearly $2 billion. $104 million in operating income. that is all up in the air today. the lawyers are trying to vigorously defend it. >> we know last month, 49 senators and harry reid signed a letter to nfl commissioner roger goodell saying the team is quote, on the wrong side of history. what do you think of the issue of the team changing the name? >> there is a legal and financial issue. dan snyder bought the team knowing he had the logo and

trademark. done a good job whether you like the logo on trademark of marketing the team. the pressure outside clearly the d.c. city council and senators and you referred to. the other pressure is the nfl. all of the teams minus the cowboys share in each other's merchandise. if there is an issue which reduces the merchandise sales, then all of the teams get involved. that is the issue there. >> let's talk about what we are hearing from the trademark attorney. he said he believes this decision will likely be the previous one. overturned. we have the words put up on the screen. we have seen this story before. just like last time, today's ruling will have no affect on t the team's use of team name and logo. >> it has an effect. a social effect and political effect. i'm not the judge that will hear the case a year from now.

we don't know. the last time, there was insufficient evidence to overturn it the time the application was applied for. the name means different things to different people. was it disparaging to a component of american indians between 1967 and 1990? that is the issue. a subjective issue. lawyers can write opinions and statements either way. the courts will decide. >> the lawyers are the real winners here as this goes on and on. >> well put. >> rick horrow, thank you. >> see you later. you know the u.s. facing portugal in the world cup tomorrow. portugal's top player, cristiano ronaldo could be out of the game. good news for the u.s.? we'll see. maybe traveling for work sounds glamorous,

"smerconish" airs at 9:00 eastern. ladies, let me ask you, has the dmv ever asked you to remove your makeup before taking the driver's license photo? i'm guessing the answer is

probably not. they not asked me. >> probably not. should a driver who was born a male or a transgender or this young man, gender non conforming be required to remove makeup? >> he admits they removed his free speech rights by asking him. >> 16-year-old chase culpepper said the dmv worker said he could not inquinot wear a disgu >> she said that i could not wear a disguise to take my photo and according to her, me wearing makeup is a disguise. it was degrading. i felt i was in shock. >> so, michael silverman is an

attorney and executive director of the transgender legal defense and education fund. joey jackson is with us. legal analyst. gentlemen, i want to thank you for being with us. michael, what was your initial reaction to the case? >> good morning, christi. nice to be with you. here is the thing about chase. he is a 16-year-old who likes to wear makeup on a regular basis. he is happy and comfortable who he is. his mother loves him the way he is. his friends support and like him. it is not the job of the government of south carolina to say he is not okay because he doesn't match their expectations of what a boy should look like. >> joey, the policy here is at no time will an applicant be photographed when he or she is personally altering his or her

appearance so the photo would misrepresent his or her identity. is identity the operative word here? is disguise? let us know what this hinges upon. >> of course. victor and christi, michael, good morning. it is not only identity, but the misrepresentation of identity. that is what the dmv would argue. people should be who they are. you know, we need to have peace, love and happiness among all of us. let me tell you what the dmv will say, you need bright line rules. we have an interest, says the government, in protecting against fraud. as a result of that, we have a right to have policies which ensure that would occur. in any instance, particularly this, where you are talking about freedom of expression. we all enjoy that. the dmv will say at the end of the day, you have to balance

that freedom against the government's obligation to keep us safe and secure and prevent anytime of fraudulent activity and the extent this could do that by allowing someone to alter their identity says the government, not me, they will then claim, victor, a legal basis and right to prevent him from wearing makeup and compel him to have that photo taken without it. >> michael, i understand you are asking the dmv to retake the photo. have you put in that request and have they responded? >> we have requested that the dmv allow chase to retake his photograph. we have not heard back from them directly. they have been speaking publicly about this situation. they have stated to the press that they do not intend to allow to retake the photo. i hope they reconsider that. all chase wants is to go back and take a photo who represents who he is. >> michael, in the letter, i have a copy from your

transgender and education fund. one line is sex stereotypes do not contend with the representations. to have a driver's license is not a right, it is a privilege. if they say no makeup in the photo and it is not based on any gender stereotypes, what protects your client or chase when this is a privilege, not a right? >> sure. in fact, what the south carolina dmv has said to chase is sex stereotyping. they said you need to look like a boy. our supreme court has been clear. sex stereotyping. judging on your notions of what a boy or girl should look like is against the law. it can subject someone to liability. in this case where the government is telling the boy we want you to look a certain way, that is less like a girl, that raises profound implications

about sex stereotyping and the freedom to be who chase really is. >> joey? >> the government will have two arguments against that. the first is that the policy on its face is gender neutral. it doesn't seek to discriminate against gender or race or anyone. a policy that says no misrepresentation. the second thing the government will argue clearly is as follows, everything has to be a balancing test. as a result of this balance, we as the government and here is the constitutional test, we have a rational basis to imply this. we are not acting arbitrarily. we are not acts discriminato discriminatorily. we are acting in a way to allow everyone to take a photo and drive. do it so your identity is clear to all humanity. that protects people from criminalality and fraud. the government will argue that what they are doing is just and

proper and indeed constitutional. >> i was just going to jump in, christi, it misses the point this is chase's true identity. to tell him he has to take off the makeup is to force him to take a photo to reflect who he truly is. >> that is the best argument of all, michael. >> joey jackson and michael silverman, we are appreciative you could be with us. thank you. >> thank you so much. >> a privilege. great day, all. >> you, too. we're back in just a moment. stay close. ♪ [ female announcer ] we love our smartphones. and now telcos using hp big data solutions are feeling the love, too. by offering things like on-the-spot data upgrades --
