the golden boot. uruguay won all three of their group stage games and scored five goals in total. only team in the tournament who has not allowed a single goal. we'll see how it goes. lebron james made it official, opting out of his deal with cleveland to become a free agent. odds are, says vegas, that he will be a los angeles laker. we'll see. >> all right. >> thank you, coy. >> thank you. i do have to say i think that his reaction to thighs out skies out -- so good. >> i wanted to talk about it at the top of the hour. we'll talk at the break. >> got them. >> all right. listen, we want to share incredible new video with you. this is one of the fissures from hawaii's kilauea volcano at night. i'm entranced at how fast the lava is moving. scientists say tracking it in the dark helps to decipher how fast it's moving and where it's headed. >> the earthquakes, meanwhile, have been nonstop. there have been more than 40,000 small earthquakes in the last week, roughly 40 per hour.
4:01 am
he is going to appoint justices like neil gorsuch and whoever this turns out to be who will overturn roe v. wade. >> that will happen automatically in my opinion because i am putting pro-life justices on the court. [ chants ] i wanted to show my support for the folks here today. i could only imagine what it walk like to have my daughter, my breast-feeding child, ripped away from me like these other moms's participates babies have been. -- moms' babies have been. i think we could do a real immigration bill. we have to have security. >> i am hispanic. i have to look after my people, as well, you understand. >> i agree, i agree. >> it amazes me since he's talked to me well over 20 times that he did not recognize that it's stuttering john. this is "new day weekend"
4:02 am
with victor blackwell and christi paul. good morning to you. it may be one of most important decisions of the trump presidency. a second supreme court pick in less than two years. this time with the potential to alter the balance of the court for a generation. >> this weekend president trump could be joined at his new jersey golf club by one of two or one or two potential supreme court candidates. the president says he'll announce his choice by anthony kennedy's -- about anthony kennedy's a placement in a week. on the short list, five people and at least one woman. for a closer look at the candidates and what the white house calls a partial working weekend, here's cnn white house reporter sarah westwood. good morning. >> reporter: good morning. >> so -- >> reporter: trump is kicking his -- you're right, president trump certainly kicking that search for the next supreme court justice into high gear, like you mentioned he's narrowed down his list to just five contenders.
4:03 am
two of those contenders are women. that's what trump told reporters yesterday as he was traveling here to new jersey. sources are telling cnn that that list of five is not set in stoerngs and that before he makes that -- stone, and that before he makes that announcement july 9th, he could interview six or seven different potential justices. now amy comey barett who sits on the u.s. court of appeals for the seventh circuit is one woman who sources say is a leading contender as is bret cavanaugh, a judge on the court of appeals for the district of columbia. both are conservative justices that trump picked from the list of 25 contenders he released during the campaign. despite fears on the left that selecting a staunchly conservative justice to replace swing vote anthony kennedy could put abortion rights and same-sex marriage in jeopardy, trump is saying those issues will not be a litmus test for his pick. take a listen. >> are you looking for somebody who would overturn roe v. wade? >> well, you know, it's a great
4:04 am
group of intellectual talent. but we really -- you know, they are generally conservative. i'm not going to ask them that question, by the way. that's not a question i'll be asking. it is a group of very highly talented, very brilliant, mostly conservative judges. because i think i won't be discussing that because i think it's inappropriate to discuss. so i won't be discussing that. >> reporter: trump has said he will interview potentially one or two justices while he's here in bedminster for the weekend. the white house has said they would like to have this justice seated by the time the supreme court term resumes in october which means the white house setting itself up for a very busy summer, waging a confirmation battle during a time that's normally sleepy for congress. >> all right. sarah westwood, thank you very much. joining me to discuss, michael moore, former u.s. attorney for the middle district of georgia. welcome back to the show. >> thanks. >> so let's talk about the
4:05 am
majority now in the senate. you got 50-49 essentially with john mccain out in arizona receiving cancer treatment. >> right. >> i want you to listen to one of the question marks in the gop. this is senator susan collins. >> one of the questions that i always ask is, do they remember precedent? what is their view toward precedent? from my perspective, roe v. wade is an important precedent, and it is settled law. >> is there any scenario under which the president nominates someone who agrees with susan collins that it's settled law and it will not be challenged moving forward? >> i don't think there's a chance of that. i think this is a litmus test question that he or the group that's put together his list of candidates has -- has delved into pretty deeply. i mean, there's about as much chance of that question not being asked as it is of me buying a car and not looking to
4:06 am
see an engine. it's a critical part of that test going forward. >> the president said that he won't ask the question. essentially won't have to because the list that's already been created, approved by the federalist society, shows that all of these potential picks will be someone who i guess sides with the party. >> right. that's true. and this idea that precedent is settled law and roe v. wade may be settled law -- the candidates and nominees are trained and instructed on how to answer questions. they dodge questions by saying, well, i have respect for the law, i have respect for precedent. the cases shift on facts. you see that all the time. in justice kennedy's opinions, he narrowly tailored some opinions to be based on simple facts in a case. and so i don't put a lot of stock when i hear a nominee say, well, it's settled law to me. we're moving ahead. i think they have a way out, sort of a back door when it comes to the facts of a particular case before the court. >> that roe v. wade is one of the decisions that motivates conservatives, motivates the republican party. you brought up justice kennedy's
4:07 am
opinions. one of his landmark opinion just turned 3 years old. the one guaranteeing essentially marriage equality. >> that's right. >> we know that roe v. wade motivates conservatives. does same-sex marriage? and will that be part of what gets the activists out to talk about the potential nominees? >> i think that's -- there's a good possibility of that. i mean, i think that you see certain issues that come up during any cycle or nomination process that would become hot button issues. that can be same-sex marriage, roe v. wade and abortion. you see sometimes it's immigration, terrorism, they pick various things that will motivate the base. that's done on polling and other things, as well. >> the deputy attorney general, rosrosenstein, felt used -- rod rosenstein, felt used by the white house in may of 2017 in which the letter he wrote criticizing then-fbi director
4:08 am
james comey's handling of the investigation and announcement of no charges against hillary clinton, he felt used by the white house. one source tells the "times" that he's conflicted. they have four sources on. that what's your read of the deputy attorney general feeling reportedly used? >> i think he's got a right to feel used. i think he was. i have a lot of respect for rod. he's a career prosecutor, great admiration for the department of justice and the principles it stands for. early on in his time, he was asked to give a memo criticizing things that comey had done when he was fbi director. that gets trumpted out as somehow he's responsible for the firing. later trump gets on television and says, i was thinking about the russia thing and was going to gets rid of him anyway. they want to hold rod out as a justification for what looks like a clear political decision and maybe an obstructive decision at the end of the day on whether or not the firing was legitimate. i think he's got a good basis to
4:09 am
feel used. i don't think that's unique to rod rosenstein in the administration, his having been used. he's got a basis to feel that way. >> one of the questions that came up in his testimony in front of house judiciary is why he has not retuesdayed himself. part -- recused himself. part of the investigation by robert mueller is obstruction of justice. he wrote a letter that suggested potentially the firing of james comey, and it eventually happened in may of 2017. why hasn't he recused, should he? >> he has to at this point. they want to make a deal that somehow he's the basis for that firing. he simply gave an opinion and memo on why that happened. what he saw wrong with the way comey handled the clinton investigation. i think there are some republicans who want to make sure that rod stays where he's at because he's sort of the wall that protects us from what happened if trump brings in a political ally. puts him in the a.g. or deputy
4:10 am
a.j.'s position and tries to make a political move around the mueller investigation chi think is probably fatal for the trump administration, fatal for the president's success, and chances of staying in office. it's important that rod stay where he's at. he's the protector of the investigation, not necessarily the protector of mueller but the investigation, of the integrity of the investigation now. >> thank you very much. >> glad to be with you. on air force one, president trump was asked about reports of two possible staff moves. one that hope hicks, his former white house communications director, could be making her way back to the white house, and two that chief of staff, john kelly, could be on his way out. he didn't deny the hicks report. here's what he said about his relationship with kelly -- >> are you looking for a new chief of staff, mr. president? >> no. no. we're getting along very well. look, at some point, things happen. we have a good -- you see that, we have a very good relationship. he's a wonderful man. john mcca john kelly, four star, wonderful man. this is a big change for him.
4:11 am
this isn't that easy a change for him. he was a very, very good relationship. >> how long do you think he'll stick around? >> that i don't know. i can't tell you that. but i can say that we've had a very good relationship. and we've achieved a lot together. so i like john a lot. i like him, and i respect him. >> errol lewis, cnn political commentator and anchor for spectrum news with us now. errol, she'd, you know, things happen sometimes. he likes him a lot, but things happen. do you read anything into that? >> yeah. this is not great news when you're john kelly. you don't want to hear your boss say, when asked if he's going to stay around, i don't know. it seems here that john kelly's publicly state intention to stay for a year, that will time out in july, will be the end if not sooner. >> all right. let's listen to what he said about that former white house communications director hope hicks when asked if she was coming back.
4:12 am
>> will she return to the white house in some capacity, hope hicks? i've seen a report about that. >> i don't know. i love hope. she's great. i hope -- i've been hearing little things like that. i bet you hope misses it. >> who did you hear them from? >> i think everybody misses it. i think when they leave for a little while, you know, you exhaust a lot of people. you bunderstand that. you people exhaust a lot of people. they come in full of life and vim and vigor, then they're exhausted. they get their breath. frankly, hope is great, and so are many of the other people. many people would like to come back. >> paeapparently it's our fault. we exhaust a lot of people. we're all exhausted, aren't we? mr. president, we feel your pain. we have that in common. errol, what's your reaction? and what capacity might she come back? >> let's reintroduce a couple of facts. hope hicks left her position at the white house because after eight hours of testimony to a
4:13 am
congressional panel, it emerged that she had probably lied to congress more than once. she said she told, quote, white lies. she didn't introduce the phrase. but when asked directly by the panel -- this is solid reporting that hasn't been refuted -- did you ever get asked by the president to lie about the russia probe, she took a break, talked with her lawyer for ten minutes before answering a simple question like that. the credibility that's needed to serve in a high post in the white house apparently vanished. that's why she resigned. if something about that has changed, then maybe you could expect to see her back. otherwise, it's hard to imagine the administration putting itself in apation where the very first -- in a position where the very first question is what did you lie about, what were the white lies, what's going on in that white house? i don't think that's going to be something we should expect to see. >> another news item this morning is that james melville
4:14 am
jr., ambassadors to estonia, has given his resignation which means there are now 60 open ambassadorships. the president has nominated people for 19 spots. what does that do for the relationship between the u.s. and all of these countries? >> in is one of the most important and under-reported stories of this administration is the hollowing out of the state department and the many, many career diplomats. people with over 30 years of experience. i mean, this is somebody who had served under six presidents and 11 secretaries of state. the apolitical core of the state department, the professional diplomats who advance american interests in the world are finding that they cannot be part of this administration. so you could see it in the sweep of history. perhaps there's a new trump doctrine emerging and a need to do things differently than they've been done for last 80 years. another way to look at it, though, is that we are change
4:15 am
issing our relationships with allies, with close allies, with alliances that have kept the peace in europe for decades now. this is not something that can be undone quickly. when you see half a century's worth of experience walking out the door, people with 30 years experience, 20 years experience of saying we can't be a part of this, people should ask and reports need to start to inquire what is this going to mean for the status of america and the world? >> no doubt. so good to see you this morning. thank you, sir. pranking the president. how did a comedian get a call back from president trump, and what does this say about the white house's security? also, feeling the heat. dangerous, hot weather we're talking about for more than 120 million across the country. we have the latest.
4:16 am
4:17 am
there is a history of injustice in this country that goes back to the very first day. but there's also a history of people pushing for justice. when we think about fighting the injustice that is this president, i think we should take pride in trying to be part of that tradition. we have a president that has lied over and over again.
4:18 am

because there are options. like an "unjection™". xeljanz xr. a once-daily pill for adults with moderate to severe ra for whom methotrexate did not work well enough. xeljanz xr can reduce pain, swelling and further joint damage, even without methotrexate. xeljanz xr can lower your ability to fight infections, including tuberculosis. serious, sometimes fatal infections, lymphoma and other cancers have happened. don't start xeljanz xr if you have an infection. tears in the stomach or intestines, low blood cell counts and higher liver tests and cholesterol levels have happened. your doctor should perform blood tests before you start and while taking xeljanz xr, and monitor certain liver tests. tell you doctor if you were in a region where fungal infections are common and if you have had tb, hepatitis b or c, or are prone to infections. needles. fine for some things. but for you, one pill a day may provide symptom relief. ask your doctor about xeljanz xr. an "unjection™".
4:20 am
want to share new images of the frantic moments when police in annapolis rushed to evacuate workers from the building under siege by "capital gazette" suspect jarrod ramos. >> hands up. hands! [ scream ] >> to the right. to the right! >> straight up -- >> here, here, here! >> put your hands up, straight across the parking lot. hands in the air for me. hands in the air. >> straight to this guy right there.
4:21 am
>> is anybody here? >> no -- anybody hurt? >> no, no, no. >> and this video of ramos being carried away by police in handcuffs. a judge denied his bail yesterday saying that he's likely a danger to the commun y community. >> i want to share the front page of the "capital gazette." it says "suspect swore "oath" to kill," an excerpt of the op-ed written by former editor stand camp saying, "last week french president macron laid a wreath at the former office of the "charlie hebdo" after workers were gunn ened down after the pr published comics targeting muhammad. "i am hebdo" became the cry. and now we need to respond with
4:22 am
an "i am annapolis" and "i am the capital" campaign. one of the co-workers of jarrod ramos told me he was simmering with anger. jack shirley, thank you for being here. >> thank you for having me. >> you described ramos as unforgettable during the trial. what do you call about him during that time? i understand you've talked about his appearance. >> i -- i talked about his appearance at first. he had a very long goatee, as i recall, and long hair. when he walked into the courtroom. he was unforgettable, though, not for his appearance but for what transpired over the course of his case. he started out with what appeared to be just a kind of a standard complaint that he felt he he'd b he'd been misrepresented in the newspaper. his twitter feed and rambling
4:23 am
made him unforgettable, his obsession with the case and reporter. >> jane miller that works at one of the affiliates, wbal, tweeted part of her conversation with a woman who said she was stalk good ramos, and she said that, quote, he will be your next mass shooter, said the woman who was stalked. i read that people that you represented at this paper had absolutely, they were in fear of danger. now obviously justifiably based on what we know now. what need them so afraid? >> i will say that every morning when i walked in, i would check mr. ramos' tweet feed. there wasn't a week that went by that someone wasn't targeted with some angry tweet. sometimes the tweets were no more vicious than anything else you might read on the internet, calling someone fat or a slob. but at some point, it turned and
4:24 am
tweets became more targeted and more violent, things like "i wish you'd stop breathing" or threatening to send someone to journalistic hell, that was a theme he had. i think at that point people took notice. these tweets weren't just calling names anymore. they were calling out specific people and talking about acts of violence. >> did you fear for your safety? >> i think everyone at one point or another thought that mr. ramos was not balanced and considered themselves at least at risk. i didn't show up in his twitter feed as much as others. i don't think i was as scared as other people were. i recall one instance where -- i used to serve in the army. one of his tweets referred to me as sergeant shirley. that spooked me because i realized he had done digging into my past.
4:25 am
>> some research. i understand that you knew some of the people who were killed this week. after, you know, a couple of days now after the immediate incident, what will you remember about those members of the "capital gazette" staff? >> i should correct that because i actually didn't specifically know any of the victims. >> okay. >> obviously a horrible tragedy. and i -- i have very fond memories of working with "the gazette." i know the caliber of people who worked there. that's what i'll remember about my representation and my time with them. >> all right. zach shirley, thank you very much for being with us. >> thanks for having me. protesters are gathering across the country demanding immigrant families be reunited. how do their demands line up with the policies being used at the border?
4:26 am
4:30 am
4:31 am
>> former director of the house committee on ethics, walter schwab. thank you very much for being here. i know you'll be involved in the protests in d.c. we'll get to that moment. i do want to talk about something that the president has just tweeted about. and that, of course, is i.c.e. we know that some agents, former i.c.e. agents sent a letter to hhs secretary as they were advocating that i.c.e. in some capacity be dismantled based on the practices being put into place by the separation of family. the president is tweeting now -- the democrats are making a strong push to abolish i.c.e., one of the smartest, toughest, and most spirited law enforcement groups of men and women i've ever seen. i watched i.c.e. liberate towns from the groos of ms-1 -- grassroots of ms-13. to the brave men and women, do not worry oh lose your spirit.
4:32 am
are you doing your jobs by eradicating the elements. so brave. the radicals want you out. next -- police, next chance it will never happen. zero chance it will never happen. okay. this is what the president is saying, but again, as i said, there are i.c.e. agents who sent a letter to the hhs secretary saying something does have to change. what do you make of this? >> i think the president is engaging in distraction, sleight of hand. this comes from policies that go up to the top to him. so the changes can be made by him and can be made instantly. and that doesn't have to involve the dismantling of an agency to achieve it. in addition to agents, there were significant problems in i.c.e. there's a culture problem, i've
4:33 am
dealt with for viewers. i used to have clients who worked there. again, i think what happens is he sets up a straw man and things like -- everybody marching today must want open borders and must love ms-13. it's nonsense. we're interested in children, babies, families being ripped apart and when they're ordered to get back together are going to be detained together indefinitely. that's assuming they can get back together. this government has been so n - non-transparent we don't have evidence that they'll be able to put them back together. >> there's a report this thaemog that the government never had a specific plan to reunite families once they were put into custody after crossing the border. i want to read from the i.c.e. agent's letter, "agents have been perceived as targeting
4:34 am
undocumented aliens instead of transnational criminal organizations, that facility cross-bored crimes impacting the communities and national security." they're saying this detracts from the true focus of criminals. the point you were making. doesn't have to be dismantled fully, but there are parts that are broken. how significant is it, however, to have agents who are in i.c.e. calling for some sort of change here? >> i think an analogy is if local town police said we're going to devote every resource, every man and woman working for police, are going to stand and make sure people come to a complete at stop signs instead of having their wheels roll slightly before they take off again. and then as a result, murderers, bank robbers, and other things are under investigationed. that's an analogy to what's
4:35 am
happening now with this situation of zero tolerance. you're pouring your resources into terrorizing families. i say terrorizing because they've admitted their goal is deterrence. do something bad enough to these people that others won't come. as a result, you're pulling off resources about the very thing he's setting up as the thing we should be afraid of. so he's actually making the danger greater for americans by pulling the resources off of the really dangerous individuals and not prioritizing people who are committing crimes. instead, terrorizing young children and babies and families. it's insane, backwards, and frankly, aside from being cruel and unjust, it's dangerous. >> you wrote a piece in "slate" saying, "ultimately the burden to ensure the families are reunited and kept safe falls on the public to pick up where our leaders have failed. what's needed now is pressure," you write. we saw congresswoman maxine waters advocating for pressure, as well. let's listen. >> and if you see anybody from
4:36 am
that cabinet in a restaurant, in a department store, at a gasoline station, you get out and create a crowd, and you push back on them. [ cheers ] and you tell them they're not welcome anymore anywhere. >> she's gotten pushback, even death threats. what pressure do you think could exert some change here? >> right. my article had nothing to do with what maxine waters said and didn't sound anything like hers. >> right. >> what i'm talking about is exactly what we're doing today. there are 750 protests going on across the country. hundreds of thousands of people have registered. and nobody registers for a march. they should, but a lot of people don't. i think the real numbers are going to be much, much larger. and that's what's needed. here we are having this human rights crisis. artificially created by our president, and our congress decides that what's really
4:37 am
needed is an emergency hearing on the world's most investigated emails of an individual who hasn't been in government for five years. and why are they doing that? to distract us from the human rights crisis that the leader of our country has created. so what we have to do with congress advocating its responsibility. and with the supreme court about to belong to the president, the only third remaining check on executive power is the people. the people need to show up, protest, vote, make their voices heard. that's precisely what we're going to be doing around the country today. >> i know you'll be at rallies. thank you very much for your insight. >> thanks. this started as a prank call for a comedian's podcast but took less than two hours for him to get a call back from air force one. how did a joke call make it all the way to the president and end with this -- here's cnn's sara gannon.
4:38 am
>> i have a good relationship with the party, you have a good relationship with the party, and i think we could do a real immigration bill. >> reporter: that is president trump talking immigration policy from air force one with a well-known prankster. his name is john melendez with an "l," but he was pretending to be senator bob menendez with an "n." the crazy thing, john melendez knows trump from his days on the "howard stern" radio show where trump was a frequent guest. melendez tells me he's talked to the president more than 20 times and even went to lunch with donald trump and melania trump five or six years ago. they haven't talked in years but said he was shocked when the president didn't recognize it was his voice on the call, a guy with a clear likely accent and not the senator from new jersey. >> he did not recognize that it's stuttering john, a guy who he's listened to on the stern show for years. i have the worst long island
4:39 am
accent known that man. how he cannot know that is not a real senator is beyond me. it is -- it's unbelievable. >> reporter: melendez told me the roughly four-minute phone call was relatively easy to set up. he called the white house switchboard, a number he got from google, took on a fake english accent, and pretended to be the senator's assistant. the next thing he knew, jared kushner was on the phone asking what topic he'd like to discuss with the president. >> i got on the phone with trump. trump's like, "bob, i want to congratulate you." i didn't even know that senator menendez was in legal problems. and really, if they would have just screened me and asked me what party affiliation senator menendez had or what state he represented, i would have been stumped because i had no idea or anything about senator menendez. >> reporter: on friday the real senator menendez put out a statement saying in part, "i
4:40 am
welcome any opportunity to have a real conversation with the president on how to uphold the american values that have guided our family-based immigration policy for the past century." behind the scenes t white house, people are saying the president wants to be accessible to members of congress, and unfortunately that means mistakes like this can happen. john melendez did provide cnn with the numbers that called his cell phone, and cnn confirmed that they are numbers for the white house switchboard and from air force one. cnn, new york. >> thank you. a dangerous heat wave is hitting more than one-third of the country today. after the break, allison chinchar will talk to us about the serious health risks that are associated with these temperatures that are coming to us.
