new this morning, inside the boobytrapped home the theater shooter left behind for new h s homeowners. we are talking a wedding dress in the closet, among other things. plus. >> i cannot believe he would tell a flat-out lie.

>> a senate stunner. presidential candidate ted cruz calls out his gop leader for lying and wondering was there a strategy behind cruz's blunt talk? >> president obama begins his first full day in kenya but this trip is not just about politics. it's also personal. >> there's a reason why my name is barack hussein obama. my father came from these parts. >> i want to wish you a good saturday morning. we are so grateful for your company. i'm christi paul. >> i'm victor blackwell. gab good to be with us. >> we are looking in the mind of a chilling killer. >> new details we want to show you about louisiana theater movie shooter john russel houser. here are new pictures we are going to show you here. >> destroyed rooms and dead fish

strewn about. the new owners of the home describe what they found when they moved in. listen. >> cement in every drain. in the sink, lavatory, commode, everywhere you could. showers. >> walked in where he had a gas line, a gas log that unattached and lit with gasoline cans in front. he was waiting for us -- whoever to come in and for it to blow up. >> anna cabrera is following the story for us live from lafayette, louisiana. good morning. >> reporter: good morning to you. we are learning more about john russell russell houser's past and what happened in the theater behind me. it is still blocked off. investigators they they are still processing the evidence through the inside. with him, houser had a gun that

he purchased legally at a pawn shop back in alabama. now we are told after he shot nearly a dozen people, he then left through a side exit door near where his car was parked, but he saw investigators coming towards him and he turned around and wen back inside the theater and turned the gun on himself. investigators still don't know why he went on this horrific rampage, what set him off, or what even brought him to lafayette. they are trying to retrace his steps right now and they are interviewing people he may have had contact since he arrived here back on july 2nd or 3rd an he apparently talked a little bit about potential business opportunities. investigators are interviewing his family members and cnn caught up with his brother ram houser who said he saw john russel houser about a month ago and the last contact they had. listen. >> we hadn't been close in years. i'm not sure the right -- we just separated from our family and just different emotional

depression issues, psychological problems, and that type thing. >> when was the last time you saw him? >> probably about a month ago. >> reporter: under what kind of circumstance? >> he just needed some money to continue moving on, living on, you know, living and surviving, and so we gave him some and that was the last we had heard of him. we hadn't heard of him prior to ten years prior to that and hadn't heard of him since. we didn't know where he was or anything about him so this was a complete shock. he hadn't had any contact, except that. >> reporter: so houser was estranged from his family. we know he was once married. he has a daughter. back in 2008 his wife filed a protective order and went as far as to remove guns and weapons from the home and had him voluntarily commit to a mental facility out of the safety of the whole family. >> what are you learning about

the online rants that were left by the shooter, apparently? >> back in 2013 he made more than 200 posts on a political forum and expressed anti-government and antimedia beliefs. he said in his profile, nobody is safe here in the u.s. he says, don't vote, waste of time. i want to read you one in particular that he wrote back in march of 2013. pretty telling. it says, quote, it is true that the u.s. is about to fall. truth comes with it and understanding of death. rather live without it, i will take death. again, that was more than two years ago. ironic, perhaps now given what happened here at the theater this week. >> a very good point. ana cabrera, we appreciate it. live in lafayette, thank you. cnn law enforcement intert is joini is joining us now.

they say houser had a hate. let's listen to part it. we don't have the sound bite but let me tell you about the westboro baptist funerals when you've ever seen any of the signs. what could have been done to create a bigger flag over houser or have prevented this? >> we always find ourselves in this position after one of these type of situations what could have been done in advance but a lot of it has to do with who knows the information, when they know it and how fast they can get it out to law enforcement authorities to get in between that perpetrator and those that might end up being victims, such as what we saw here at the theater. it is a horrible and awful situation, but it seemed like we just keep experiencing these reoccurring themes of someone who may have mental health issues, but then when we think about it, they seem to be very planned as well, which would suggest in some ways they were

sanity in what they were doing in thirn minds. >> tom fuentes said until we do something about the mental health programs in this program and programs to take guns away from people like him, we will keep seeing this over and over again. we talk about mental health programs. we know patient rights laws have been in effect since the '60s and nobody can be institutionalized against their will. they do say that they can't be forced into treatment involuntarily in any state unless they are dangerous. when you look at his background, was there anything in your mind that would have constituted a dangerous enough behave? >> certainly his background but it goes back who knew and when did they find out and who did they report it to get him some help. >> who can you report it to

where it might have some impact? >> when you see someone exhibiting behaviors that are bizarre and uncharacteristic of most of us and you don't have to be a psychologist to fill it you, a common layperson, there is something bizarre with their behavior. you try to talk to them and see what the state laws are in your particular state in terms of taking someone, being taken into custody who might be a threat to themselves or someone else. but here is where it really gets complicated. and i think what in terms of what tom is referring to, is that mental health is one thing. gun laws in the country are another. >> right. >> when the both come together, it can create a serious problem. but we also have to remember as well too that the greatest majority of the people in this country who have mental health issues are people who are not violent whatsoever, so you can't paint everyone with the same brush, but we really do have to go back and begin to look at some of our gun laws in this country and both sides of the

aisle are going to have to come together and figure out how are we going to work this out? but, at the same time, the rights of people are not violated who wish to be lawful abiding gun carrying citizens. >> that's a difficult balance. >> that's a difficult balance. >> stay with us. we will talk about that in a moment. the president expressed his frustration over not being able to pass stricter gun laws and way to prevent violence, and we will talk about that. ♪ what you're looking at there is one of the videos that one of the victims jillian johnson would sing with her band. there in the center playing the ukulele. she is one of two killed in this shooting. they say she touched people with their lives and creativity.

the one area where i feel that i've been most frustrated and most stymied, it is the fact that the united states of america is the one advanced nation on earth in which we do not have sufficient common sense, gun safety laws. >> it was president obama admitting to the bbc the fight to pass gun safety laws has been the most frustrating part of his presidency. he made the remarks hours before the louisiana movie theater shooting. we know now that john houser, the shooter, bought the guns legally. >> my immediate thoughts and prayers are with the wounded, so, at this time, i all americans and me and michelle in keeping all of the victims and their families, including gabby,

in our thoughts and prayers. i'm sure that many of you who are parents here had the same reaction that i did when i heard this news. as a country, we have been through this too many times. whether it's an elementary school in connecticut or a shopping mall in oregon. >> these were men and women doing their work and doing their job and protecting all of us. >> we are heartbroken that something like this might have happened again. i've had to make statements like this too many times. >> let's talk more about this cnn politics senior reporter stich collinson and cedric alexandra. thank you both for being here. steven, i want to look at the poll that came out after the events in charleston, a "usa today" poll that found 52% of people believe gun control should not be a key issue among

2016 presidential candidates. 43% believe it should be. do you see that changeing in light of the news we have seen recently? >> i don't think we will see it changing. you can see the country is split on it. as such, there is no incentive for a republican politician especially to change their position on gun control. you know, the president says he is frustrated and he hasn't given up on trying to initiate some more gun control reforms, but the last time he tried this after newton school massacre in 2012, he failed. he couldn't get it through the senate. there was a bill for an assault weapons ban and tighter background checks and polls also show the majority of the country actually supports. he couldn't get it through the senate and it wasn't just because of republicans who opposed it, vulnerable democrats in conservative states also came down against it because it was such a big political lift. we are heading into election year next year. in those certain circumstances,

lawmakers don't want to make tough votes and it could be an issue to motivate the base. hillary clinton said she would fight for tighter gun control laws. but they argue against any more push for gun control laws in the near future. >> all right. i want to touch on something you just mentioned, cedric. let's talk about this regarding background checks. the second amendment says a well-regulated militia being necessary to the security of a free state, the right of the people to keep and bear arms shall not be infringed. we get that. when we say well-regulated, a lot of people would argue that is not part of our society today. this is not well-regulated. how can that change? >> we certainly live in a very different society today than we did in 1776. but let me say this as well too. we certainly do need to respect the constitution. let me be clear about that in terms of what our rights are, but we also have to be very realistic in a different kind of

way. i'm a police administrator and responsible in dekalb county, georgia, for over a thousand police officers and every day, our biggest responsibility is go out and protect the public. a lot of guns out there and a lot of illegal guns out there in the hands of the wrong places. how do we keep guns away from the possession they don't need to be in? that is the question. the frustration of the president is the frustration of millions of americans that are in this country, because we keep seeing these reoccurring themes over and over and over and over and nothing changes. >> can background checks change that? >> background checks is just one piece of it. >> right. >> it is just one piece of it, but what really has to take place, there is going to have to be some conversation on capitol hill in regards to these issues around gun laws in this country, but it cannot be at this place where it is now, where it's

politically, it's an issue over here for some people, but for people out here in the community every day and the poor victims that we constantly see dying at the hands of someone who has illegal guns in their hands, we got to revisit this whole issue. >> but in this case, it was not illegal, as we know in this theater shooting. >> the possession -- >> the purchase was not illegal. >> the purchase was not illegal but it use of it was. >> right. >> but, here again, how did that gun get in the hand of that subject, right? >> right. >> and who we suspect, at this point, may have had some mental health issues and we can go back to each case. we can go back to dylann roof in south carolina, we can go back beyond that. it has a common theme in there somewhere. and we got to revisit this issue and find some answers around it, because we keep talking about it, but very little is being done. >> being done. >> being done. and that, i'm quite sure, is

part of the president's frustration with this from what i can interpret by what is he saying. >> sure, sure. stephen collinson and cedric alexand alexander, thank you. tweet us. your thoughts are important for us about gun control solutions and what you believe and what you think could happen or could help. that is important to us. so go ahead and go to those pages and we would love to hear from you. victor? >> turkey hitting isis military tants -- militants in a big way. they are letting americans use their air bases. the question, why this increase now? we will talk about that. we now know where bill cosby said he got those quaaludes. what allegedly the l.a. doctor was writing the prescriptions.

bottom of the hour now. live pictures of president obama at the kenya power african innovation fair and one stop on his trip to kenya.

this is his first visit to his father's homeland and praised the country's economic and business potential. listen. >> in order to create successful entrepreneurs, they have to create the ease of doing business and the anti-corruption agenda that creates a platform for people to succeed. so this is our first global entrepreneurship summit here in africa. we wanted to come here. i wanted to be here because africa is on the move. >> cnn's white house correspondent michelle kosinski is in nairobi traveling with the president. he has a lot on his personal agenda and official agenda. what is going to happen today? >> reporter: you heard him cover some of the big topics, aside from the obvious events.

ant anti-corruption is a big one and promotion of democracy and expansion of trade between these two countries and africa in general and something the president has wanted to look on for a very long time so this trip is important. we know it's the first time a sitting u.s. president has visited kenya, but the events today, first of all, the global entrepreneurship summit. the u.s. is a co-host of that. you say why is the president going to kenya, why now? this is a trip he has been wanting to make for a long time and not just on a personal level but they point to this summit as being a big deal. that is really the hook. the u.s. has co-host a chance to build that relationship and promote entrepreneurship which is an engine of the economy. they have commitments both public and private going to the entrepreneurship in kenya and half of that money to women and youth. he also went to this power

initiative something, this is something the president launched two years ago to try to double access to electricity and power here in kenya. something that is sorely lacking, especially in rural areas. when the president spoke about this, he said, you know, because not like they are going to build coal-fired plants, it's like they are going to bypass dirtier trs and use things solar. he has other things on his agenda like the u.s. embassy bombed in 1998 and a state dinner tonight. >> when you speak of dinner, michelle, there was quite a lively dinner last night with the entire family there. this is very personal for the president as well, right? >> reporter: yeah. yeah. we were surprised to see that. it wasn't announced as part of the initial schedule, so to see him meet with about three dozen members of his extended family on his father's side, who live here in kenya, we thought, wow,

they didn't waste any time doing that. it was nice to see those pictures. these people were exuberantly talking with each other and sharing time on this trip. >> this is before the food came because they are sitting there over empty plates and still a good time. michelle, we will check back. thank you. let's talk about turkey now. they are launching another round on of bombing attacks on isis in syria. a second straight day, turkish war planes and artillery have hit in syria from the turkish border. robert mcginnis is joining us now. lieutenant criminal, thank you so much for being with us. i want to talk about turkey and utilizing these air bases

because, obviously, is increased others efficiency for the u.s. is this a game-changer? help us understand how critical this fight is against the isis and syria right now. >> this is a game changer and it could contribute to a significant success and the fall of assad and the coherence of the rebels. they are going 60 miles from the syrian border. what that means is we will have more payload capabilities, more sorties over the region, we will certainly have persistence over the enemy. all of that can readily change the equation along the long border with syria. the turks also shifted their posture, in other words, their military is engaging is circumstances along that border. so these are very significant, potentially radically changing the entire environment. we hoped for this for a long

time. finally, the turks have recognized that isis is a real threat to them and not just to the coalition. >> well, the interesting thing is turkey, as we understand, also bombing kurdish militant targets in iraq but kurdish fighters have been effective in battling isis, so how do you deal with that contradiction? >> it's tough. the turks, of course, have been battling the kurdish group for many, many years. they are concerned about a kurdish formation of a country in parts of syria, turkey, and iran and iraq. even the turks have had forces that have gone into iraq for him, many decades. so this is not new. but, yes, the peshmerga, the kurdish fighters have been currently effective in that region and elsewhere. it's a bit of a mix for us. we want them fighting against

isis. we don't want them hurting the initiatives shown by the kurds and the peshmerga. i'm sure this is a delicate situation and we are negotiating with them and hopefully pushing in the same direction. >> real quickly. fbi director said there are concerns about encrypted and he compared isis military tannts i needle haystack. pow tough is it to break encryption without compromising any security, obviously. >> well, breaking encryption is a science, and, you know, if you go all the way back to the navajos we used in world war ii, you know, they had their own language and we were able to break, you know, to continue to communicate things that our

enemies, especially the japanese at the time, couldn't break. and we did the same thing with the nazis. we have techniques and it will take time but, you know, this is dangerous. but well, i think, persevere in the long term. >> thank you lieutenant criminal robert maginnis. >> thank you. up next, ted cruz accuses a leader of lying, the majority leader there. on the senate floor, what happened and how will it affect cruz's campaign. plus, the late junior seau is being inducted into the pro football hall of fame but his family will not be allowed to speak. coy wire is following that for us. stay with us. ♪ i'm jon buckle and one of

did texas senator ted cruz violate, at least the rules of decorum, when he tore into his own party leader, the majority mitch mcconnell. they believe mcconnell had blocked several amendments cruz had offered for a highway funding bill. here is some of the speech. >> i cannot believe he would

tell a flat-out lie. and i voted based on those assurances that he made to each and every one of us, what we just saw today was an absolute demonstration that not only what he told every republican senator, but what he told the press over and over and over aga again, was a simple lie. >> so we have with us cnn stephen collinson to talk about this. ted cruz has done things on the senate floor there in the chamber to anger and has shocked his colleagues and he is proud of what he has done, but how rare is something like this? >> it's hugely rare, victor. the senate is a boiling part of political egos and political jealousies but, normally, expressed in a much more courtly, formal way and keeping with the sort of venerable

nature of the senate chamber, so this is hugely unusual to have a member of the rank and file and majority party openly accuse their leader of lying, but it's consistent with the way ted cruz has played politics and he has played an outside game and has come to bust washington what he says is a cartel about the washington leaders between the republican and democratic party and saying the republican majority has not done much that harry reid, the democratic leader, wouldn't have done if he was still in power. so it's very unusual. i think we have to look at this also in the context of where the 2016 is going now. >> is he pulling a donald trump here? >> right. ted cruz was setting himself up as the rebel rouser of this republican field but has not been able to get much coverage the last couple of weeks because donald trump has seized that role and made it his own. i think it's fair to say that ted cruz is making play on the 2016 field here. it's also interesting that

although he absolutely hammered mitch mcconnell on the senate floor, he was the only republican presidential candidate not to come out against ted cruz -- come out against donald trump on his criticism of john mccain. it's very interesting political dynamics going on here. >> thank you. we will continue the conversation. a painting at a florida courthouse has some citizens asking this question. >> if i were to walk into this courthouse for any legal matter, am i going to be getting justice? >> should the ku klux klan be removed from this mural or should the mural come out of the courthouse altogether? that's ahead. first, this week,' culinary journey introduces us to french chef dominique frans skilled with pros as she is with a knife. she is the only woman to run a two-star restaurant in north america and known for her innovation and creativity with a
