dreaming! definitely dreaming. then again, dreaming is how i got this far. now more businesses in more places can afford to dream gig. comcast, building america's largest gig-speed network. the russian lawyer who met with trump campaign officials in 2016 now admits that she has closer ties to the kremlin -- [ speaking foreign language ] >> of course she was a russian spy. >> it certainly corroborates what we have seen of thrnatal natalia veselnitskaya. the fact this north korea

and south korea are talking and missile tests have stopped is encouraging. >> i think it will be good. >> why did it take 11 years to get to this historic moment? >> we're not going to be played. we'll hopefully make a deal. if we don't, that's fine. good morning to you. so we have merkel and macron, a dictator to a doctor, a rapper to a russian lawyer, and a lot of people saying it's been a heck of a week for president trump. and maybe that's just the opening act. >> look at you with the il iteration. that was nice. nice. the president returns to one of his favorite settings, the campaign trail, today. he has a re-election rally and is previewing a speech on twitter. it's got the attacks on russia, the investigation at least. robert mueller and democrats. cnn's abby phillip is live in

washington. we'll start there. we know how much the president really loves these rallies. but there are some minimum wage par developments in the russia -- some major developments in the russia investigation he'll have to address soon enough at least. >> reporter: that's right. the president is having a little bit of a replay of what he did last year at around this time. the white house correspondents dinner is usually the place where the president will show up and make fun of himself and perhaps the press corps and political scene. he skipped it last year. he's skipping it yet again this year. instead, he's having a campaign rally in michigan. it's something his aides knew he enjoyed in part because of the counter programming that it presented to the dinner, a very washington affair often. and also because the president, as you mentioned, likes to be on the trail road testing some of these lines, perhaps attacking his enemies. these rallies tend to be very much a free-wheeling affair.

and the last couple of days, the president has been doing just that also on social media. as you mentioned, previewing these messages. last night he sent a late-night tweet saying there was no trump administration collusion with russia. as i have been saying, it is a big hoax by democrats based on payments and supplies. there should never have been a special counsel appointed. witch hunts. he's referring to the white house special counsel report on the russia investigation. but that report was a partisan one. it was written mostly by republicans. democra democra democra democratsdissented saying the -- democrats dissented saying the republicans didn't do the work as far as the ties between the president's associates and russia. one of the ties, the famous meeting between the president's son, don jr., and a group of

russians including a lawyer who has come out and said that she was an informant for the russian government, she wasn't there simply to talk about russian adoptions, that she was there as an -- essentially an agent of the russian government. so that is a new development here that this white house is going to have to contend with. and frankly, this is -- this development is perhaps new to the public, but folks in the intelligence community have known for quite some time that her role with the russians was clearly more advanced than she might have let on. so we will be watching to see what president trump is going to see throughout the day and into this rally in michigan. the objective will be to put something out for the public to digest and also, perhaps, to go after some of the main themes he's been talking about on social media and in -- in a "fox and friends" interview in the last several days. he's been going after james

comey and the special counsel investigation at length. >> yes, he has. abby phillip, thank you very much. one of the big questions this morning, why is this russian lawyer who previously denied any connection to the kremlin coming forward now? fred pleitgen following all of the developments from moscow. so fred, what exactly do we know, first of all, about the timing of this, and her motives for essentially outing herself? >> reporter: yeah. it's not clear what exactly her motives are. also, she doesn't essentially say that she was an agent of the russians or is an agent of the russians. she simply says that she is an informant which in itself is interesting. of course, before she'd said she has no ties to russian government bodies. the thing that's interesting is her ties to russia's general prosecutor. that's always been something where investigators in the united states have said they believe that the ties are closer

than she let on. now she's said, yes, i have a relationship with the state prosecutor, a professional one, and i am also an informant. listen to what she said in an interview yesterday. she's saying, yes, she is an informant. the question is why is she saying this now? and one of the reasons might be because some of her emails between her and the state prosecutor of russia have been leaked. recently they'd gotten into the hands of an organization headed by a kremlin critic, the organization is called dossier. and in there, you see that the language between her and the state prosecutor is a lot more cordial and friendly, and there seems to be more interaction than was previously let on. she also apparently had close

coordination with yuri in the case where the russian federation tried to thwart the justice department, going after a russian businessman in the united states, and she apparently was representing this businessman. at the same time, worked together with the russian authorities to try and thwart that investigation. there's a lot of new information that's coming out. and also we have to remember that when the infamous beating took place in 2016 there at trump you to -- infamous meeting took place in 2016 there at the trump tower, she was sold to the team as a russian lawyer. i want to read an e-mail that donald goldstone saying the close business partner of trump who helped organize the miss universe pageant in 2013 saying, emin asked that i schedule a meeting with you and the russian government attorney -- this being natalia veselnitskaya -- flying over from thursday. obviously that was the meeting where donald trump jr. was

apparently told that he would get "dirt on hillary clinton." he says that the meeting led to nothing, that she wanted to talk more about trying to repeal the ma magnetsky act. her ties to the russian government seems to be more than she let on and more than she told u.s. authorities, as well. >> very true. thank you very much for walking us through all of it. joining us now, errol lewis, cnn political commentator and anchor for spectrum news, and walter schwab, cnn contributor and former director of the office was government ethics. good morning to you. errol, let's start with you. your assessment of where natalia veselnitskaya is coming out with this assertion now that she is an informant. >> look, a news organization basically had her dead to rights. the dossier organization that got its hands on emails led by insidesors who are very much in an opposition stance to the putin regime, they -- they had

the emails, they had the information, they passed it on to nbc news. nbc news confronted her with the emails. so it's fascinating to watch her on camera there. sort of -- kind of size up the situation and say, well, yeah, you know, you got me. i am an informant. the president keeps talking in all caps about how this is a witch hunt, well, i think we have a witch here. >> a house democrat says that of course she was an informant when she walked into the room at trump tower in june of 2016 for that meeting. i want you to listen to what he's proposing now after this reporting. >> i have written legislation that is called a duty to report which says if you are contacted by an agent of a foreign power as a candidate or someone on the campaign team you have to tell the fbi. there's so many people who were approached by russians with dirt on hillary clinton or who

offered to connect donald trump to vladimir putin, and they said nothing. >> i imagine there are people who once this came out in july of last year about the meeting at trump tower were surprised that that was not a requirement. in this environment, what do you think the viability is of that legislation getting through congress and then getting a signature from the president? >> i don't know if it will get through congress. we've got a congress that was responsible for this ridiculous intelligence committee report. that was nothing more than an attempt to confuse the issues and muddy the waters. i think it's a very good idea in terms of legislation. i'm glad he proposed it. this is another example of the norm in government. anybody in the past, you know, however many elections back you want to go would have thought immediately to contact the fbi. this was the beginning of a series of departures from the norms of government by the trump administration to not contact

them. you know, one thing that's interesting about this revolution about this attorney is that it's the product of leaks. i don't know if i missed it, but i haven't seen any clear indication of how it got leaked out. i think we have to remember that russia's goal isn't to support one candidate or president or another but to create chaos over here. whether they're responsible for the leak or not, they're beneficiaries because this creates more chaos coming out around the same time as this house intelligence committee report because it shows it's ridiculous since they have no interest into looking into the matter. >> one issue i want to hit because we're running short on time is epa administrator scott pruitt. confirmation from the epa office of the inspector general that there will be new reviews into some of the ethics questions,

notably the $50-a-night condo setup he had in washington, d.c.. if we have it, maybe we can put this up, the list of organizations and agencyings investigating scott -- agencies investigating scott pruitt. you have the office of inspector general, house oversight and immigration reform committee, government accountability office, white house office of management and budget. some vindications, some violations, and some ongoing probes. do these new reviews make him any more vulnerable? >> i think other than the house, the others are statutorily required to look into the allegations finding their ways into the newspapers. this was going to happen. he is vulnerable. this is why the ethics bodies exist in the first place, to let you know that if you start stepping wrong, there are people paid to wake up, reads the newspapers, listen -- read the newspapers, listen to what's going on in the government, and launch probes about things that may be going wrong. especially some alleged retaliation where people were

fired, demoted, or reassigned allegedly because they called attention to the spending habits of the secretary. he's in a world of trouble. a lot more than he needed to be, and he could have avoided much of it by playing by the rules. >> is there a load capacity for a single member of the cabinet? we didn't see tom price when he was head of hhs get this far into some of the questions related to his expensive travel. expensive travel is one of just i guess a half dozen issues with scott pruitt. what do you think, walter? are we near that tipping point, or as long as he's getting the work done, he'll be fine? >> the last time i counted, there were ten investigations into him, and they may have added more as a result of the i.g. confirming yesterday that they were going to add additional issues. i don't see how he survives this in any other administration. but right now, he's popular with

the president and with some of the members on the committee who held a hearing this week actually defending him and writing off ethics issues as somehow a smokescreen for going after him on substance. but the reality is i've never seen a government official at his level with so many ethics issues continuing in his job for as long as he has. so he's either on death watch for his career in government, or we are sdwreentering a more ext era of this administration not caring about government ethics. >> walter, errol, thank you both. >> thank you. also new this morning, the national rifle association appears to be bracing for a possible investigation. cnn has learned the gun rights group has been setting aside years of documents related to its interactions with a kremlin-linked banker. congressional investigators have been looking into the nra's finances and ties to alexander torsion.

>> the united states has been played beautifully, like a fiddle, because you had a different kind of leader. we're not going to be played, okay? >> i don't have a crystal ball. i can tell you we are optimistic now that there's opportunity here that we have never enjoyed since 1950. we'll have to see what they produce. >> cnn international correspondent paula hancocks is live from seoul, south korea. good morning to you. the north and south have done this before, right? there was the summit in 2000. the summit in 2007. but officials now are really trying to take this meeting, this summit, into the greater context and balance their optimism with a bit of skepticism. >> reporter: absolutely. and it's a sensible thing to do because of course they have been here before. they have had agreements which have not been held to, pledges which have not been fulfilled. and what we've heard from the blue house is the reason they

think it hasn't worked in the past is because washington wasn't behind it. president moon has brought president trump along with him when it comes to this. what we saw friday was truly remarkable in an optics way. the fact that these two leaders who had never met before seemed to be getting on so well. that there was such congeniality between the leaders two of countries which are still effectively at war. so it's -- it was an interesting view for many south koreans to see it. i think some i've spoken to said it was tricky to reconcile the kim jong-un that they saw on you from with the one they had been reading and hearing about for years. it was a matter of months ago that tensions were incredibly high on the peninsula. that there were threats of war, personal insults between donald trump and kim jong-un. i think there's a certain amount of relief here in south korea, as well, that we are way beyond where we were at that point.

good morning, and welcome to saturday. i'm christi paul. >> i'm victor blackwell. good to be you with this morning. it's about five years the cnn chief medical correspondent dr. sanjay gupta began reporting on pinellas m-- on medical marijuaa in this award-winning series, "weed." this saturday he's tackling a timely and controversial subject, the country's opioids crisis. >> this installment explores whether the opioid crisis with annual deaths of 65,000, whether

it could greatly reduce by wider use of medical marijuana those numbers. now medical marijuana has no annual deaths caused by overdose when you look at the numbers. it surely will kick up a national conversation here. i want to show a clip along with our conversation that we had with sanjay. >> we're going to work with the people who are so addicted, and we're going to try like hell to get them off that addiction. >> a national epidemic. trump campaigned to end it. as president he promised to fix it. >> the scourge of drug addiction in america will stop. it will stop. [ applause ] >> one year later, it hasn't stopped. 115 americans die every day from an opioid overdose. more than car accidents, breast

cancer, or guns. >> literally everyone we know knows somebody who has died from an overdose. >> and 2.5 million americans are currently struggling with opioid addiction. >> suicide. >> meant to take aspirin sometimes, and top it out. >> a solution some believe is this -- cannabis. it's controversial to many. is cannabis a gateway drug? a gateway to recovery for others. did this help you get off of the opiates? >> absolutely. >> cannabis has given me a reason to live. >> join us as we investigate, search for answers, and meet potential pioneers and outspoken critics. whether you struggle with opioids or know one of the millions who do, decide for yourself. >> dr. sanjay gupta joins us

now. good morning. >> good morning. >> let's start here with this is the fourth installment of this series and your reporting on this topic. obviously a lot has changed. what has changed as you've reported over the years? >> i think one of the big changes happening now is that five years ago we introduced you to patients who had this type of epilepsy that was not treatable with current medications. then they got significant relief with cbd, a component of cannabis. these were young children. everyone thought very fringe at that point, parents had to move around the country to try and obtain it. it was really hard. now the fda is probably going to approve the first cannabis-based drug for epilepsy in this country. five years. i mean, that's the blink of an eye when it comes to drug development in this country. the other thing that's changed is the accumulating evidence of the role cannabis can have in the midst of the-year-old epidemic. the worst self-inflicted epidemic we've had in the united states. so that's -- that's i think

what's got a lot of people's attention now. >> i think a lot of people are watching saying how does cannabis help me kick an opioid addiction. >> right. and i asked the same question. and i didn't know the answer to that when we started doing this. i heard that it could, but what's the mechanism? does it make sense? there's three things really. one is that cannabis can treat pain. that's a consensus statement by the national academy of science. people have known this anecdo l anecdotally for a while. now there's lots of data to back it up. another big one, when people are trying to stop opioids are often withdrawing. they have terrible symptoms, yau nausea, vomiting, lots of pain. we know that cannabis can help with the withdrawal symptoms much as it does in a chemotherapy patient get -- a cancer patient getting chemotherapy. if you're an addict, your brain is changed by opioids. i saw this firsthand in the autopsiy specimens that the researchers had been collecting. when your brain is changed in this way, you no longer have the

ability to crave your desire for opioids. you no longer have the ability to just say no. it's not really within your power anymore. cbd, again, this component of cannabis, can help heal that part of the brain. >> you've written this letter to the attorney general jeff sessions in which you offer the science in your reporting over the years. but you also write in the letter that "i changed my mind, and i'm certain you can, as well, mr. sessions. there's medical and moral imperative to reschedule cannabis." this sounds like, it reads like advocacy. you're a doctor but also a journalist. how did you walk that line, and those who question is it appropriate for a journalist to lobby for policy change? >> you know, i think that's -- what i've heard as a journalist is that we speak truth to power. i think that's what we do. i think there's a lot of -- a lot of information out there now about cannabis. so much of it is wrong. it's not based on truth and facts. it's also really hard for

someone to get all that we know sort of aggregated into one place. you know, so you can read a document, you can click on the various links, and actually arrive at your own conclusions. i did change my mind on this because i had -- i felt i was misinformed initially. i did not get the right data, the right knowledge initially. now that i've seen what is out there, not just in the united states but around the world, i think that not only is some a medicine that works for some people, sometimes it's the only medicine that works for some people. i thought that was something that i should share. we asked to sit down with the attorney general to talk to them about this, they did not agree to any interviews. this is another way to basically get some of what we've learned directly into the hands of people who can do something about it. >> when you say ideally your idea is to reschedule this drug, what would the parameters be around marijuana then at that point? ideally? >>ial, i'll explain it as --

first of all, i'll explain it as this. right now it's a schedule-one drug, preordained as having no medicinal benefit. that's one of the criteria to be a schedule-one drug. this has no medical benefit. nobody agrees with that. even the national academies of science, in part funded by our federal government, the researchers, people who are actually doing this, they describe the medical benefits this can happen. so it doesn't -- this have k have. so it doesn't fit the schedule of a schedule-one drug. and cocaine is a schedule-two drug because it's been show to have medicinal path benefits. it -- med is unanimous benefits. there's $500 million going toward the opioid epidemic. some of that could be used to study cannabis, figure how to make it safe, what's the right dose, things we need to know. that's the big thing. everyone wants the data. every responsible person wants the data. the problem is they can't get it because this is still an illegal substance. >> if it legalizes marijuana, people will say, great, let's go

out, well the's have it, have a party -- let's have it, have a party, whatever. you're a parent, how do you have these conversations with your kids? >> i have no interest in the recreational part of this. because we're journalists we see things emerge faster than anybody else. this is a potential solution. a potential medicine. i don't want to hurt anybody. >> right. >> i want to help them. i think everybody does. >> thank you very much.

president trump is asking americans to participate in national prescription drug take-back day. i want to show you what he tweeted about this. he tweeted his support for initiatives that encourages everyone to empty their medicine cabinets, turn over unused or expired prescriptions. last fall the dea took in more than 900,000 pounds of drugs. special agent in charge of dea in the atlanta division, with me to robert murphy. thank you very much for being with us. >> thank you. >> 900,000 pounds of drugs. >> yeah. this is our 15th time doing it.

we do it twice a year. every time it gets bigger. we're expecting over 500 tons today getting collected nationwide. >> so first of all, what kind of drugs are we talking about? opioids obviously. >> that's our primary -- >> anything left in your medicine cabinet? >> let's clean it out. we don't take liquids orrer is inches. if -- or syringes. if anything is expired or unused, clean it out. let's help prevent, a simple, easy, effective way of helping us get this off the street. >> how effective is it at the end of the day? are there statistics, do you know, have you been doing this long enough to know if it could put a dent in the opioid crisis thus far? >> how do you measure what you don't know -- that's the thing. our goal is, listen, obviously law enforcement works every day to try to keep this stuff off the street, to attack the organization that's are spabl for -- are responsible for putting this poison on the street. this is a simple way to get the supply off. don't let the drug dealer get

your kid or family member hooked through a medicine cabinet in your house. it's simple. if you don't need it, you're not using it, it's expired, clean it out. spring cleaning. get it out of the cabinet, and just -- we'll dispose of it. we don't have to worry about it getting into the children's hands or some -- neighbor or friend or somebody else. it's simple. >> people may be at home going, why do i have to take it to you, why can't i flush it or throw it in the garbage? >> we don't want you to do that. >> because? >> it's environmental -- we don't want it to get into the food or water supply. these are opponent chemicals. there's a proper way to dispose of it. we incinerate it. we'll be going around, you know, like i said, incinerating over 500 pounds after we collect it across the country. >> do you hear stories from people when they drop it off? >> they thank us. we hear it all the time, not so much these days, but we can assistantly hear it, i'm sure you've -- constantly hear it,

i'm sure you've heard, a kid or family member got hooked because it was laying around. the grandparents' leftover medicine or parents, they had an operation. we all have done it. we don't use it all. we look in our cabinet, we've got 20 pill bottles that we didn't realize we accumulated. that's where the kids, they know to go. i mean, that's the number-one start for some of these children. it's right going into the parents' medicine cabinets. >> something that we've kept, that we -- >> yeah. these are very potent drugs. especially when they're prescribed for an adult and a teenager. you know, we talk all the time about babyproofing our house, child-proofing our house. we have to teen-proof our house. a simple solution to get this off the street. >> being in your position, do you think the dea is doing enough to try to combat the opioid crisis? >> absolutely. we're not the only solution. this is a whole community approach. we need the industry. we need the medical profession, all of these -- all of these parts together contribute to it. you know, the big thing that we're looking at that we see on

the rise and we're dealing with is the synthetic problem. you know, the fake pills. >> the synthetics. >> yes. you know, just the counterfeit pills being, you know -- >> and laced with something, they're laced with something worse. >> that part we'll have to deal with. but you know, the part where the medical profession and pharmaceutical industry prescribes stuff, that's -- they can help us take that off our plate. >> do you feel confident in the -- in the relationship that you have with those other organizationss? >> yes. i mean, obviously the news on a daily basis has made everybody take a look at it and what can we do better. the industry is constantly doing it. we're working with them. sometimes we have -- there's a rogue doctor. by and large, most of them are doing the right things. we'll deal with the ones that aren't. that's the way we've got to approach it. >> all right. robert murphy, appreciate you being here. >> thanks for getting this message out. >> absolutely. thank you very much. victor? dna evidence for the alleged golden state killer sat in

match results and found very distant relatives, it took us four months. >> reporter: deangelo is a navy veteran who served aboard a missile cruiser during the vietnam war and worked in exeter and auburn where he was fired for stealing dog repellant and a hammer from a drug store. for 27 years he worked as a mechanic at a savemart distribution center in roseville. he retired last year. the 72-year-old was taken into custody in citrus heights, a sacramento suburb. >> when he came out of his residence, we had a team in place that was able to take him into custody. he was surprised by that. >> reporter: for those who survived the golden state killer's attacks like jane carson sandler, relief mixed with shock as new details emerge. >> i also lived in citrus heights at this time. he very well could have been my neighbor.

face. then after the emotional loss, westbrook, as he was walking off the floor, slapped a phone a fan was holding and confronted the fan. westbrook saying afterwards that the fans in utah are disrespectful. and something needs to be done about it. the jazz are going to play the rockets in the second round. the series starts tomorrow. lebron and the cavs heading to game seven with the pacers tomorrow. lebron taking a blow to the face in the first half of game six that left him bleeding from above his eye. it was a frustrating game for lebron, especially with his ongoing battle with lance stevenson. shoving him to the end near the end of the third quarter. the pacers win in a blowout 121-87. lebron has never lost a first-round series. that streak is in jeopardy tomorrow. this last story, it's incredible. in case you missed it, the number-one prospect in baseball robert acuna jr., hit to joe and

>> i think i'm trying to comprehend it all. i don't think it's completely hit. >> joe got to hand deliver that ball to acuna himself. like i said, the odds of this happening, astronomical, going to a game to try to catch a home run ball, and it happened. the guy's first home run ever. >> phenomenal. >> fantastic. thank you. the russian lawyer who met with trump campaign officials in 2016 admits she has closer ties to the kremlin. >> of course she was a russian spy. >> it certainly corroborates what we have seen of veselnitskaya. >> she was working to undermine the u.s. policy. the fact that the leaders of north korea and south korea are talking and that nuclear and missile tests have stopped for now is a cause for optimism. >> i think it's going to
