4:00 am
evidence matt was sick possibly from contaminated food or water. an examination of his body found blisters on his feet and minor cuts. >> for as intelligent as they are breaking out of prison abading police for three weeks, joyce mitchell was plan "a." >> reporter: there were tools, bug spray, maps and pop-tarts. matt's body reeked of alcohol. dna inside this cabin along with an open bottle of gin. >> cooking gear a barbecue beds. it looked well equipped for a place that far out in the woods. >> reporter: now, sweat remains in this hospital in albany in serious condition. he is under heavy security. both hospital and law enforcement officials watching him. they expect he will be here a few more days.
4:01 am
the district attorney telling cnn, he plans to charge sweat with escape burglary and any other crimes committed while on the run. >> keeping the pressure on to keep the information flow going. thank you very much. s now, let's turn to the prison they escaped from. the fbi is launching an investigation for possible drug trafficking and other things. jean casarez is following that. she is at the prison in new york. jean what do we know? >> reporter: you know chris, we see so many correction officers reporting for work this morning. the fbi confirmed they launched an investigation inside the prison to see if there is a drug trafficking issue with the inmates. now the new york solicitor general has had an investigation ongoing for several weeks now. they have been talking with employees and cnn learned some employees are saying the inmates are using heroin and there are issues amongst the employees. the question is are there
4:02 am
issues amongst the employees and the inmates in regard to those drugs? that's what the investigation is going to look at. that brings us to the point sweat and matt may have had an access to more parts of the prison than other inmates. while that is going on at the prison gene palmer made an appearance yesterday. this was the first time we have seen him. i sat behind him in court. his demeanor he was frozen sewic, he appeared frightened. this 27 year veteran of the corrections system now a defendant. truly a sight to see. michaela? >> all right, jean very interesting developments there. americans could see a boost in pay. the president working to change rules to make workers eligible for overtime. this as a cnn poll shows the president's approval rating rising after a week of wins for the administration.
4:03 am
jim acosta is live for us in washington. good morning to you. >> reporter: good morning, michaela the white house is setting new overtime rules that raises the pay for 5 million americans. president obama announced the move last night. we'll put it on the screen. in this country, a hard day's work deserves a fair day's pay. that's what it means to be middle class in america. under the old overtime rules, the extra pay of time and a half stopped at $23,660. now that threshold is bumped up to people making over $50,000 a year. now, this announcement comes as the president is receiving higher marks for the way the president is handling his job. the president's approval numbers are on the rise. 50% approve, 47% disapprove. it doesn't sound that impressive but that is his highest number in two years.
4:04 am
you can see the difference. one reason is how he's handling race relations in this country, a big issue since the church massacre in charleston and the president's speech there. the president is 55% in that category up five points from last month when it was 50% in may. people are feeling better about race relations. 20% say they are better up five points from february. another big reason for this upward swing is his handling of the economy. up six points from last month. the president has a big week last week. that's what everybody is talking ability when it comes to talking about president obama. that is showing up in his approval numbers. >> thank you very much. we to turn to greece. they are hundreds of billions of dollars in the red. they have to make a payment today. the problem is greece cannot make the payment. richard quest is live with more. will they make the payment. that answer is no richard.
4:05 am
the real question is what happens when they don't make the payment? what do you have? >> reporter: i wish i could tell you with a degree of certainty. chris, in the last hour since you and i spoke, there are rumors flying around athens of potential talks between the europeans and the greek authorities. now, the europeans want the greeks to agree to the various deals. they want the greek government to say yes in the referendum all of which has been a big no no so far. whether the talks, the negotiations the discussions, whether they are just a smoke screen for what will be a very nasty evening when default happens, we just don't know. at the moment what we can say with certainty is that greece will default tonight and so far, it doesn't appear there's a deal on the table. michaela? >> uneasiness in greece and the markets around the world.
4:06 am
we'll be watching thank you for that. agents arrested a new jersey man for plotting to join isis. prosecutors say he planned to join terrorists in iraq and syria and planned to take his brother along. this is the latest in isis related deaths. evan perez joins us now from washington. it is concerning. yet another arrest in new jersey. >> that's right. this makes nine isis related arrests in month alone in the united states. this is a 23-year-old man from new jersey. he's part of what could be called a cell of isis supporters in the new york city area. three other associates have been arrested on other charges including a queen's student who was plotting to detonate bombs in new york city. another friend allegedly, tried to stab an fbi agent during a search of his home in staten island. they are charging him with planning to go to syria to join
4:07 am
isis. he helped arrange his brother's travel there in may and his brother is now under arrest in jordan. this comes as officials raise warnings about possible isis terror plots in the united states around the fourth of july holiday. chris? >> thank you very much. we want to tell you this morning, the death toll is rising in the military plane crash. 49 people confirmed dead after a military jet crashed. the plane went down after take off. it left from jakarta today. it made two stops along the way. it's not clear how many people were on board. the cause of the crash is under investigation. there is a bill requiring vaccination for california kids in school or day care. that's in the news. it's on the desk of governor jerry brown. the state's legislature approved the bill after a recent measles outbreak in disneyland. it infected 150 people or more.
4:08 am
opponents say the bill tramples on parental and religious freedoms. governor brown has 12 days to decide whether or not to sign the bill. arizona is going to pay $50,000 to each family killed battling the fire. the hot shots died two years ago today. it was the state's worst fire disaster ever. as part of the settlement arizona agrees to extra safety provisions to firefighters including better tracking and communication for crews on the ground. that was a big one there. >> it was. two years ago today. i want to turn to details emerging in the capture of david sweat, spilling secrets about his escape including the plan to head to mexico leaving matt behind because he was slowing him down. we turn to lou, the prosecuting attorney during matt's 2008 murder trial.
4:09 am
he's declined to do interviews until now over concerns matt would track him down. i bet you are sleeping more soundly these days. >> it's a little more comfortable. >> i imagine it is. my goodsness. tell me when you heard he broke out of prison what was your reaction? >> actually i wasn't surprised? >> really? >> when we were trying the case prepping for it he had apparently had plans with someone outside the niagara county jail to hatch an escape. he had previously escaped from the erie county correctional facility years earlier. he's a runner. he's smart enough to take advantage of the situation. >> the concern was so great, i understand the judge in the case you are prosecuting, the judge made changes to the courtroom to
4:10 am
make sure there wasn't danger to any of you there. >> tremendous adjustments. the judge was proud of the fact that a tremendous restoration of the historic courtroom had just been finished and the old tables from probably the 1860s had been refinished. she wanted them protected. she had plate glass installed so the attorneys briefcases wouldn't do damage. because of sweat's or matt's propensities the plate glass was removed for fear that he might try to break it and use it as a weapon. that was one of many things that were done to protect the rest of the community during the trial. >> since he's been taken into custody, sweat spoke of the fact he left matt in the dust because he was slowing him down. one man was 35 years old, matt was 49 at the time of the escape. he was concerned he was going to
4:11 am
slow him down. is this the man you and others were so afraid of? >> well it was seven years ago. obviously, three weeks in the adirondacks can change one's physical condition. >> that's true. >> matt was always viewed as someone who was strong powerful. he had a lot of resources at his disposal. it's kind of surprising to me that i figure that matt was the master mind for this entire escape. >> that surprised you that it was the other way around. >> well i haven't seen what sweat has been divulging. i imagine matt is the one that planned this out and made it happen. >> put your prosecutors hat on and talk about the case now. in terms of the fact they were
4:12 am
able to capture david sweat alive, how can the prosecution and the investigators use that information? how does it change the course of the investigation? >> well it certainly gives the authorities an insight into how this was accomplished. you know very candidly i was surprised at the escape, but i was originally disappointed and becoming angry that the department of corrections had failed in their role. i say that because from the moment the department of corrections took custody of richard matt they knew about his history. they had to know. in fact the day that he was sentenced by the judge, the sheriff insisted the department of corrections take him that day. >> do you feel more should have been done to secure him? >> absolutely.
4:13 am
there is no reason that he should have been around an honor block. prison is prison. it's not supposed to be a nice place to be. when you have heard over the last three weeks about the types of accommodations given to these people particularly given matt's history, it's abominable that this happened. it's arrogance on the part of the department of corrections. clinton had never been broken out of therefore it's never going to happen. matt has, you know just an attitude. i will give you one example. there was a photograph that the new york daily news printed, a polaroid of matt in the elmira correctional facility on a previous sentence. he was wearing a department of corrections shirt, holding a billy club.
4:14 am
he's got the placard you would use for a mug shot. he's got something written like who says i can't break out of this place? there's an attitude with this man. he wasn't going to be kept caged. >> are you surprised more people weren't hurt during the three weeks they were on the run? >> in fact i am. that's part of why i'm angry about what happened because every one of those thousand police officers that were out there, you know on this manhunt put themselves you know at risk of someone who ultimately they found who was armed. it's abominable in my opinion, that they let this happen. >> lou, some really strong words from you. we are so glad to get a chance to talk to you. as i mentioned, you will be sleeping easier knowing this man is no longer a threat to you and others who prosecuted him
4:15 am
years ago. thank you for joining us today. >> you're welcome. experts here at home are saying it's more than just the usual chapel. there are some scary terror warnings for this fourth of july. is there real reason to worry? we'll get you answers, next. ♪ ♪ ♪ (vo) making the most out of every mile. that's why i got a subaru impreza. love. it's what makes a subaru a subaru.

so news of the triple terror attacks in taunisiatunisia,
4:19 am
france and kuwait. they are taking the holiday more seriously. mike rogers a cnn security commentator and chairman of the house intelligence committee. nice to have you on "new day," sir. >> good to be here thanks. >> how do you connect the dots on these? how why should these be separated from the norm? >> isis issued a ruling saying hey, over ramadan, we are in the middle of ramadan, we want a call to action. we want you to take into your own hands into a terrorist attack wherever you are, europe, the united states wherever it is. you lay you are under that chatter in the intelligence business. they are getting lots of pieces bits and pieces of information about an event that will happen might happen could happen trying to inspire it to happen. take last night, the attack in
4:20 am
yemen show that is isis still has a bit of a reach outside syria. i think all of those factors lead them to say, listen something's going on we don't know where or what. they clearly have intention to do some type of activity let's be extra cautious and make sure people are paying attention. that's what you are seeing for the weekend. >> where are our heads supposed to be on isis. they are not a threat here at home. it's overblown. that should be a lend we look at to what we do overseas because it's not such a big risk. then you get good information from you that every active fbi field as a case. we keep hearing of arrests and capabilities of lone wolves that may not be so alone after all. just because you are solo doesn't mean you are a lone wolf. what is the truth? >> it's that. you have a network in the united states that's raised questions.
4:21 am
somebody there communicated from los angeles to seattle to miami to washington, d.c. to new york city. somebody connected themselves to an isis operative overseas. that's concerning. the fbi has to follow those leads. what we think is happening is the self-style attack that has a little bit of coordination. just because it is one person it doesn't make them a lone wolf. you can have an operational cell and plan with one person. you saw how impactful they were in tunisia, particularly. at home can they get enough information and direct that person to a place where they can cause real violence and death and mayhem. the answer is simply yes. that's what they worry about. other intelligence services this is interesting, said we are taking water over the bow. we have so many leads, so many
4:22 am
people talking about things that concern us. we don't have the resources to make sure we are on top of all of them. when that starts happening and you see how many offices here in the fbi or across the country have these investigations. that's when the law enforcement gets vernervous saying we are stretched to the max and we have information that they want to pull something off. doesn't mean they can. they want to. they are trying to inspire someone to do it. be careful. >> i keep hearing from your brothers and sisters on the intelligence side this is why we were pushing back when you were making changes to the surveillance. that's a discussion for another day. right now, it doesn't mean they have the ability to pull them off. are they hearing more than chatter? do they believe there could be something afoot this weekend that people should be on edge hyperaware if you see something, say someone? >> if they had something very,
4:23 am
very specific, we would know about it. they don't have that. they don't have someone picking up the phone or sending an e-mail or written message to somebody that might be cooperating with the intelligence service, hey, we are going to do this attack we have an operator ready to go. we have to give them the signal. it's fill in the blank place in the united states. i don't believe they have that but what they do have chris, is a lot of the folks they would watch for signs that there might be an operational activity. they are seeing those pieces of information are active meaning they are having these conversations, they are talking to other people. they may not know what but they know that normally means, hey, there's going to be activity. isis themselves said hey, there's a plan in the works. we have watched them say that. could it have been the tunisia, france kuwait event? could be. that's why i think they are being prudent saying listen all the signs show that something is afoot here. we don't know what.
4:24 am
let's be extra careful, obviously, the july 4th weekend would be an ideal target for them because it's so american. i think that's why they are being extra careful. >> welcome to the new normal. thank you for the insight, appreciate it as always. >> thanks chris. the president has been busy with this calling for an expansion of overtime pay. good news for american workers. can u.s. businesses foot the bill? we'll put that question to the white house, next. u wouldn't order szechuan without checking the spice level. it really opens the passages. waiter. water. so why would you invest without checking brokercheck? check your broker with brokercheck.

david sweat is speaking to investigators from his hospital bed. he said the plan was to go to mexico. joyce mitchell was supposed to be the get away driver. they did agree to reward her for her help by killing her husband. when she was a no show they had no real plan "b" other than run for canada. they split when matt got sick days ago. they are investigating drug trafficking at the facility involving inmates and employees. greece is on the verge of
4:29 am
default. the country must bay the imf $5.7 billion. it likely won't happen. painful cutbacks is expected today. the prime minister is urging people to vote know. an apology after making a cake with an isis flag on it. a louisiana man said he tried to order a cake with a con fete rat flag on it but they denied their request. then he ordered the image of the isis flag and they fulfilled the request. they said the employee didn't know what the image was. chris, i guess they are going to learn their lesson the hard way. >> speaking of the hard way, how about a hard day's work deserving a fair day's pay? that according to an op-ed that is the motivation to announce a plan to extend overtime to 5 million american who is never got it before because of wage restrictions. we are going to discuss this.
4:30 am
to defend the policies the director of the white house domestic policy counsel. good to have you with us. i want to start off with a chance for you to take pride in poll numbers. the poll numbers about how the president is doing on the economy. let's put them up. what do you say about why the approval rating popped at about 50% of how he's handling the economy? >> well the president isn't terribly focused on poll numbers. he's focused on middle class and ladders of opportunity for those trying to get to the middle class. finally updating the overtime rule to raise wages for 5 million workers. this is to update a policy that's been in place many many years, many decades. used to be the majority of salaried workers counted on
4:31 am
overtime. that eroded so less than 8% of salary gets overtime pay. the announcement today is an update of the salary threshold that's going to benefit 5 million workers and make sure they get, as you say, a fair day's pay for an honest day's work. >> if you don't want to own the good news defend the bad news. you are doing what the private sector says you should not. don't mess with wages. let business decide what the right pay scale is otherwise, you are going to force jobs out of the market and force them to squeeze labor and lose jobs not help people who have jobs. >> the national retail federation says the policy isn't going to have a downward effect on jobs. it is going to raise wages for workers, for 5 million workers and if you are working 40 hours a week if you are asked to work longer than that you get paid for that extra work or paid your salary but expect a 40 hour week to see your kids.
4:32 am
at the end of the day, it's good for the work force and the economy. in the '70s, 50% of salary was covered with overtime. we are going back to a point where they can expect those protections. that's good for the economy. if the business community wants to argue that it should be set as it is now, at a level below the poverty rate for a family of four it's hard to argue it's good for the country workers or economy. >> they will push back on the theory the economics bear what they bear. the reason the $455 limit for what is proceeded at a manager level was set for a reason. it got pushed through government. they are going to say, if you mess with wages and force us to pay more like they do with minimum wage if you force us to pay more, we are going to pay less people. we have to worry about the bottom line. what do you say? >> we are talking a level that was set decades ago and hasn't
4:33 am
been updated for roughly 40 years. we are updating the numbers so that our policy is what it used to be that is the majority of salary workers can be paid fairly if they are expected to work more than 40 hours or expected to work a 40 hour week and see their kids. at the end of the day, it's good for the economy, the work force and the nation. >> why did it change? >> the president asked the department of labor to update and look at and update the overtime. they have been consulting with the business community with working people in order to inform the judgment they are announcing today. it's changing because too many workers are expected to work long long hours at salaries as low as $24,000 a year. in some cases, you could be a salary worker somebody who your company says is a manager and you are earning less than the minimum wage because they are working you, 50 60 70 hours a week. a fair day's work gets a fair
4:34 am
day's pay. >> let me ask you something. in the news this morning, trump is getting beaten up by nbc. they are pushing him out because of what he said about latinos. he's targeting a group you have been fighting for for a long time new immigrants to this country, doing lower pay scale jobs. do you think this will be a galvanizing campaign from the latino community? >> i think at the end of the day, all americans are focused on the debate happening around the country. it affects everybody in the country. at the end of the day, this administration is going to stay focused on what's best for the economy, and the middle class. hispanic americans are part of that. all americans should be part of that. >> i commend your ability to stay on message. i know that is why you were here this morning. it is my job to expand the conversation. thank you for being tested on why this is a good idea. thank you for being on "new
4:35 am
day." >> thanks for having me. >> more on nbc dropping donald trump, what it means for 2016. we will explore that with john king. he is in the house today for i.p. my vacations: tropical. and at red lobster's island escape, i can try new dishes like the island seafood feast with crab, lobster jumbo sweet and spicy and coconut shrimp. so hurry in, it'll be gone before you know it. ♪ ♪ when you're living with diabetes steady is exciting. only glucerna has carbsteady clinically proven to help minimize blood sugar spikes. so you stay steady ahead.

welcome back. what a treat on "inside politics" on "new day." john king is busy this morning. >> he is in town. you can't run from us. >> this is good for us. we need you today. we have numbers to process. let's take up the president's poll. start with the approval numbers and how they shifted. here they are for the audience. what do you see, my friend. >> his approval is up because he's been winning. you see him in the rose garden celebrating the same-sex marriage ruling a victory on capitol hill. despite the short term winning out in public, people are feeling better about the economy. if they feel better about the
4:40 am
economy, they feel better about his presidency. people are thinking, okay, it's not great, it's turning around. >> that compares with clinton and bush how? how is he doing? >> clinton ended his term. bush was down. he never recovered from katrina and the iraq war. >> the recession coming on things were getting worse and worse. >> that's the great question. his party is happy about obamacare. his party is happy about same-sex marriage. now he's back at 50%. if he can get above 50%, you can do business. what does he do with it? that's the fascinating moment. if you look alt his numbers on race relations, they are better from a couple months ago. if you look back in time, they are down. they are down among blacks and african-americans. if you look at the numbers, 84%
4:41 am
of african-americans approved it's down from 94%. trayvon martin charleston bad news. the president, if you think, he goes with the flow the news cycle. what can he do with it? he's got a republican congress. >> we had cecelia munoz on. >> if you had josh from the political team on -- >> true. >> she's trying to advance this big deal for them. she's less political. the trump thing is interesting. on my train ride up here yesterday, i was talking with someone that does business with trump down here not univision

or nbc. he's coming up with a meeting to protest. >> i'm thinking the 54 million voting block. 54 million latinos in america. somebody is paying attention to this. this is the time to do it. >> look we have to treat him as -- we have to respect him as a presidential candidate. you are running, you file the paperwork, do the events. if you look at the numbers, he's in second place nationally and in new hampshire. if you talk to serious republicans, the bush campaign the rubio and cruz campaign he's a grenade. what is the number one party facing the republican party? non-white voters. they have had a historic deficit with african-americans. george w. bush got 47% of latino vote. the republican establishment is furious. >> couldn't they have used that
4:43 am
as an opportunity saying this is where we differ and where the republican party needs to go. you could have heard it from rubio, bush or cruz. >> bush has done this others more cautious. for them to come out, of course they could challenge him and should challenge him on the rapists and murderers. the issue is if they are giving a path for legal status or citizenship, they are angering their base. this will be without a doubt, one of the major flash points. the first debate on fox, then cnn in august and september. without a doubt, when we get into that most think that's why trump is in the race. most think he's not going to last long. >> you don't want to give oxygen to the trump fire. if you address him, he's relevant he's going to outtalk you and push you off message. he's a problem on stage. >> a problem, but could be an
4:44 am
opportunity. bush says i'm a two-term governor in florida. we don't have the money to do it. let's deal with reality. can you do that? the guy is getting in the race. chris christie a guy with a strong personality who thinks number 14. christie casic is coming on. >> he's someone to watch. >> even if you are a democrat and want hillary clinton or bernie sanders or just want a democrat if you look at the republican field, this is a credible field. a former long-time governor of texas, two term governor of florida, two term governor of wisconsin is going to get in. interesting personalities, cruz rubio and paul. >> how do you make room for yourself and find oxygen? >> it's a challenge for candidates to breakthrough. is it a showman moment or policy moment? it's a challenge on them. >> you know what they have on their side? time. time creates opportunity.

how much time do we have? 496 days. that's why -- >> what day do you get excited? >> nine eight. >> you are going to watch the clock. >> i count the seconds down. things happen all the time. >> they do. >> with a crowded field like this the democratic race is interesting, too. don't discount them. you have to watch every day. when it's so crowded look at the volatility you have had. you never know when the door is open. >> it's great to have you in person with us. >> what can i get you for breakfast. >> eggs all around. we are watching the story, he was serving time in prison after killing his third wife when his fourth went missing. drew peterson is about to stand trial for ordering a hit on who you ask? a cnn special report you do not want to miss. that's ahead.

the x1 voice remote, only from xfinity. you may remember the story of a former police officer, drew peterson found guilty in 2012 for murdering kathleen savio. he is serving 38 years in an illinois prison and about to stand trial, again. this time accused of hiring a hit man to kill the prosecutor who put him in jail. tonight, we look at the case. here is a preview for you. >> october 28 2007 the day stacy peterson vanished without
4:50 am
a trace. >> i thought she had been murdered most likely by drew. >> she was not alone. all eyes were on stacy's husband, illinois police officer, drew peterson a man whose third wife kathleen savio was found peterson a man whose third wife had been found dead in the bathtub about three years earlier. >> i walk into everywhere i go and there's this little hum that goes through the establishment, there's drew peterson. >> this morning drew peterson spoke to reporters through his front door. >> first few days he was peeking out of his front door but then he was letting people in to talk to him. >> posey was the first. >> it was kind of strange. >> strange because they were watching the news coverage. >> she was last heard from on sunday morning. >> about their missing mother.
4:51 am
>> let's bring in jean -- tell us more. so many crazy twists and turns in this case. drew peterson allegedly ordered a hit on the prosecutor in this case? >> reporter: it's ironic and this case is far from over. his trial is this august and he is now charged with soliciting the murder of the prosecutor, that prosecuted him for murder which he was convicted of. at his sentencing several years ago, drew peterson at sentencing said don't forget my face looking straight at the prosecutor. and now we have these charges. there's much more to all of this. we went to illinois just a few weeks ago and spoke with and talked with many people. there's still a mystery.
4:52 am
