star gazers hope the asteroid will give us information about our solar system billions of years ago. you know about the tradition for a bride. something old, something new, something blue. >> meggal maahan markle had her something blue in her gown. she had something that prince harry gave her on their first date. >> announcer: this is "new day weekend" with victor blackwell and christi paul. thursday at 10:00 a.m., that is when brett kavanaugh's accuser will tentatively speak to the senate judiciary committee. >> we still don't know if the hearing is public or private or who is speaking first. those details are being sdouf

discussed on a conference call late today. >> reporter: its looks like brett kavanaugh and his accuser christine blasey ford will face the committee. while ford alleges that kavanaugh assaulted her at a party some 30 years ago he categorically deny the allegations but still more details to be worked out between lawyers for ford and the judiciary committee before the hearing is final. they plan to talk later on sunday to hammer out remaining issues. lawyers for ford believe that republican senators should question ford, some in the gop want to hire an outside counsel, maybe a woman, to do the questioning. ford thinks other witnesses should be called. for instance, they want to call mark judge, who ford has said was in the room where the alleged assault has happened. judge says he has no memory of the party.

but chuck grassley says only two witnesses, ford and kavanaugh. as the negotiations continue, republican staffers are working to interview those who may have information about the alleged incident. democrats such as senator dianne feinstein tweeting this. from the white house report, sarah westwood is live in berkeley heights, new jersey, near the president's golf club. >> what is the white house saying? >> reporter: the white house is highlighting the fact that a fourth person who christine blasey ford claims was at the party where the alleged assault took place is now saying she has no memory of attending an event where brett kavanaugh was present. others who had been at that party don't remember the alleged assault. the white house saying this in a statement.

one week ago, dr. christine blasey ford claimed she was assaulted at a house party attended by four the other. all four have provided statements denying any knowledge of the incident or even having a attended such a party. now ford's legal team asked others people to be subpoenaed but none of them say they remember the alleged assault and chairman chuck grassley said only ford and kavanaugh should testify next week. ford's legal team saying this in a statement responding to the white house. we should note while this alleged witness says she doesn't remember the party in question, she did tell "the washington post" that she believes christine blasey ford.

a top aide to president trump is maintaining the republican line that ford should be heard and kavanaugh should be defended. here is what kellyanne conway had to say last night. >> the white house respects the process. this is still part of the senate confirmation hearing of judge kavanaugh as a nominee to supreme court. this is not a criminal proceeding. this is not a civil proceeding. this is another part. it was all done until they came up with this in the 11th and one half hour. this is part of the senate confirmation hearing. what i think important to note is judge kavanaugh, this man of integrity and intellect and character, he has said he has never done this to anyone, including her so that is definitive and unequivocal. he said he wasn't at the party. these allegations are serious. we take them seriously. we want to hear from her! >> reporter: of course, this come against the backdrop of trump's recent attacks on ford, setting the white house up for a complicated week navigating their way to a hearing on

thursday. >> complicated, indeed. sarah westwood for us in new jersey, thank you. errol louis is a political anchor for spectrum news is with us now and kelly jane torrance of "the weekly standard." good morning to both of you. errol, should this hearing be held publicly or privately? >> in a way it doesn't matter. even if it's held privately, you'll end up having is dr. blasey going forward and coming on cnn or some other kind of network. she will be heard. if she wants to be heard, it will be a national forum. congress is the appropriate one. i think the bickering and the bargaining over who and when and who gets to go first and so forth, it sound like it is really condensed down to something that both sides are going to be able to live with. both sides won't be happy with every element of it but i think we will hear from her this week. >> kelly jane, is it important for americans, who are interested in this, to be able

to watch how senators engage with her, how they listen to her and how they react to what she says? >> that's a great question, christi. i think it is important, especially given how some people in the republican party have responded to this allegation. i have to say it's kind of funny that republicans are wanting to have an outside lawyer come into question her because they would like to have a woman question her because, of course, that would make them look a little more sympathetic. maybe they should have thought, hey, why not do we have a single female senator on the judiciary committee? you know? this is something that i'm surprised nobody had noticed before and talked about before. it really is their own fault for not being able to find a single. there are plenty of qualified republican female senators that could have been on that committee and i find it very interesting that they now want to bring someone in from the outside to question her. >> i think that she had said she didn't want to talk to senators initially so they offered to bring somebody else in and then she had, no, i will only talk to

senators if i have that correct. listen. myers said yesterday i think it's malpractice on the democrat when wanted to be anonymous. what was senator feinstein supposed to do if she got this information and wanted to try to honor the anonymity that was asked for? >> my understanding is that she did honor the anonymianonymity. in the end dr. ford came forward herself. >> somebody leaked something somewhere. >> reporters were showing up to her house. >> they were going to her house and where she worked and figured out who she was. somebody leaked. should a leaker be held responsible or accountable in some regard? >> we are all in the business of getting information that people don't necessarily want to go

public. so look. i have a hard time believing that somebody who made this kind of a complaint even with an earnest request for anonymity to a u.s. senator would have somehow imagined it never would have come out. this sort of thing, it just doesn't -- to speak to a truly private transaction. if you go to the authorities are information saying, look, this is something you need to know, please keep my name out of it, you are all running the risk that your name is going to come out. i think the subsidiary question of who leaked, which staffer, what were their intention and what were the politics of a possible leak, are, you know, look. not only hat ship sailed, but i think we could have anticipated all along that something like that would happen. she was tremendously brave by putting forward her information even anonymously and she had to know somewhere in the back of her mind that this was a possibility. >> anybody, i think, watching this will tell you we know that politics are at play here.

in terms, especially of the time line of this. because, you know, some people are saying, listen, we need the fbi to look at this. what is the harm of the fbi trying to establish what happened? at the end of the day, it's going to be a he said/she had. we know that in the morning because of the people the judiciary committee talked to and they can't give any more clarity to what is happening. what is the value of an fbi investigation, kelly jane? >> it's a great question, christi. of course, judge kavanaugh has already gone through a number of fbi background checks for his previous appointments. they didn't know about this. you're right i , let's get the to investigate this. what more could they know as errol point out? we journalists have been looking into this and everybody, of course, wants to get the real story. i think that as you say, it sort of comes down to a he said/she said. really we are never going to know exactly what happened and i

think at this point we kind of partly can judge based on people's reacttions to what happened. for example, did judge kavanaugh give the okay to conservative lawyer and think tanker ed whalen, for example, to have a tweet suggesting it was someone else and naming that person? i think that is a very important question. we will never know exactly what happened 36 years ago but we can look at, hey, what happened now and how did people respond and what is that saying about their character? >> one of the most important aspects of an fbi investigation is as people have found out, in many case, the hard way. if you lie to the fbi what even is a casual conversation you have committed a crime for which there would be severe consequence. it sounds in many ways that is driving the republican refusal, the white house refusal to get the justice department involved. once you go from i don't remember or i was young, drunk,

and stupid, and you go to this never happened and you're you're in effect saying that with legal consequences if you're not telling the truth and you risk the possibility of being found out to not have told the truth to the fbi, it really raises the stakes in a lot of ways so i'm not at all surprised that the kavanaugh forces don't want to go anywhere near the fbi if they don't have a story that they are comfortable telling with those kind of consequences. >> errol louis and kelly jane torrance, thank you both with being here early on a sunday morning. always enjoy having you. >> thank you. >> stay with cnn throughout the morning. u.s. ambassador to the united nations nikki haley is and senator hirono will be on "state of the union" with jake tapper. at 10:00 a.m., mike bloomberg will join fareed zakaria on his

nick, the water, is it creeping up and for how long is it expected to continue to rise? >> reporter: good morning, victor. it is creeping up still and it's stunning to see these types of images around the city of conway. parts of conway are under rauwa. the entire city was expecting some kind of flooding and over the weekend they thought main street would floot flod but the here. as the water continues to creep into these residents' homes here. good news in all of this it seem to have stabilized for now. the river was rising at a rate of two feet per day since we got here earlier this week. last night it was about a foot. it's still increasing. we are nearing 20 feet, level of 20 feet on the river and that is causing all of this here. what is essentially happening in this subdivision two body of water. a swamp and a river converging and causing problems like this. residents for the most part, in this area have been able to get

out. they secured their belongings but others yesterday as we understand it from the national guard and the local emergency management that were getting water assist so they were able to get out of their homes but not without assistance from the local authorities. this is going to be the scene in georgetown about 40 miles away. as that water continues to drain south down river, georgetown one of the ole communities in south carolina, is expected to get stuff like this and this is just a mess to deal with this weekend. authorities are kind of holding their breath now seeing that that river is stabilizing, that this continues to not be as bad throughout the city. >> nick valencia watching the continuing flooding there in south carolina. nick, thank you. it's been two years since the launch of the me too movement. how the nomination of brett kavanaugh is testing the impact of that social movement. i'm ken jacobus, i'm the owner of good start packaging. we distribute environmentally-friendly packaging for restaurants. and we've grown substantially. so i switched to the spark cash card from capital one.

across social media are sharing some of their darkest moments in theirs lives and they are launching than online confessional using the #why i didn't report. >> just like the #me movement women are using the why i didn't report hash tag. the headline from "the new york times" this article captures the sentiment that kavanaugh confirmation fight is a test of how far the me too movement has come. joining us again is brian stelter, cnn senior media correspondent and host of "reliable source." good morning again. >> good morning. >> we are seeing this growing as quickly almost as what we saw from the me too movement. >> yes. i completely agree with that and why i'm so struck by this confessional that we are seeing on social media. for all of the ill of social media and all we talk about the horrible downside of our digital age, it is remarkable that people are able to share their

own stories in their own way. we saw that one year ago with me too. you remember, harvey weinstein, the story about him that happened last october? then about a week later, this me too hash tag started to emerge and more than one day story about harvey weinstein and a movement we are talking a year later. now a new why, why i didn't report and lets people organize their stories on twitter. we have seen thousands of accounts of people saying here is why like christine blasey ford i did not share my account of wrongdoing. a few examples on screen. one person saying my mom said she would kill and wanted to hurt me at 9 years old and i believed her. and two others here. it took me years to even understand it wasn't my file. these are frequent comments and

explanations according to the group rain which tracks this problem and provides support and counseling to victims of sexual assault. people frequently say they didn't thought they would be believed and they felt shamed and a lot of this online activity is triggered by president trump. he spurred this the other day with a tweet where he cast doubt on ford's allegation. we can remind you of that tweet and put it on the screen. trump basically said if it was  as bad as she said, why didn't she tell anybody or go to the pris rig police right away? this tweet got it to erupt on social media as if the president doesn't understand the basics of why people don't report sexual assault so now thousands of people on social media trying to tell him why. >> any indication that politicians are paying attention to this hash tag and what they are saying and if there could be any sort of shift, any sort of consequence? >> i'm seeing this breakdown

mostly on partisan lines like everything involved in the kavanaugh debate. we have seen politicians using this hash tag and encouraging people to feel safe coming forward. rain has a sexual assault hot line people can reach out to if they feel they would like to seek help for the first time. there is oftentimes a delay when it comes to victim sexual assault or violence. they do not want to come toward right away. ford's story not unique but we are seeing the conversations around ford's story breaking down on partisan lines. keep in mind as we head into this possible day of testimony, kavanaugh is coming in not as an incredibly strong nominee with a huge amount of approval but instead actually with relatively weak approval and this cuts on partisan lines but the most recent poll, nbc/"the wall street journal" poll is a reflection of nearly a week's

news coverage of ford's accusation finds kavanaugh in a weak position. you see 28% women supporting of kavanaugh's nomination and 42% pose or undecided. this breaks along political lines as everything else. this is not a nominee who has incredible public support. it's actually quite the contrary. >> brian stelter, thank so much. be sure to watch stelter's show "reliable sources" only on cnn at 11:00 a.m. eastern. this week, there is another sexual assault case in the spotlight. former tv star bill cosby's sentencing begins tomorrow. he is charged of three indecent accounts of drugging and sexually assaulting andrea constand in 2004. he could get probation to ten years for each count. joey jackson, cnn criminal and defense attorney is bus now.

he could serve 30 years or he could serve nothing. what do you make of the fact he might serve no jail time? how plausible is it? >> it's certainly plausible. good morning to you, christi. but highly unlikely. when we talk about sentencing here, as you mentioned, it could be from probation to 30. let's just remind people how we got there. he was convicted of three counts of aggravated indecent account and each count carrying ten years but more likely the judge will run any sentence concurrently. what that mean in english, although it could be 10, 10, 10, if the judge runs it consecutively that gets you to the 30 but the actual conviction stems from the same transaction and occurrence we call -- as it related to his abuse of andrew constand it's likely the judge will look at it probation to ten years and those are the parameters and the judge decide what within the 0 to 10 is appropriate and that is based on

a number of things. based on victim impact statement from andrea constand. we certainly know the judge did not, did not for the purposes of this proceeding allow the 60 accusers to come in and testify what he did as it relates to uncharged crime. the judge has a lot to think about. remember that this is against the backdrop of an incredible movement me too which has had resounding success for holding people accountable. a relates to the last interview even we are talking about judge kavanaugh. the timing could not be, you know, more germane and appropriate to what is going on in the universe concerning women, women's rights and abuse of women. >> let me ask you this. he could walk into that pennsylvania courtroom and possibly not walk out a free man again. he could also be designated a sexually violent predator. what are the ramifications of that, joey? >> what happens is that when you're a sexually violent predator, of course, there are

counseling requirements that are mandatory on a month basis and reporting requirements where you're geographically located and it's essentially on mark on who you are and what you do and an alert to the community concerning your presence there. that would be a lifetime registry. of course, we know he is 81 years old and, you know, who knows. as it relates to the registry or as it relates to prison, he is really looking at a life sentence on both purposes. >> i only have about 15, 20 second left but i want to ask you how likely he would be released on house arrest, you know, until appeal, which we know would be coming by his attorneys. or that he would be handcuffed and taken and incarcerated immediately. >> you know, i think his attorneys will move to have him out pending appeal because there are significant appealable issues. remember the judge would have to make that decision in terms of allowing him to go out or allowing him to go home. to this point, we know the judge

could have put him in upon his conviction in april. the judge didn't do that. i think it would be, you know, certainly unlikely that the judge would allow that, particularly given the climate and particularly given the charges and the conviction here. >> joey jackson, thank you, my friend, for always breaking it down for us. >> thank you. iran is blaming u.s. allies for the terror attack that military parade yesterday. we will have more for you of what the iranian president is saying. does this map show the peninsula trail? you won't find that on a map. i'll take you there. take this left. if you listen real hard you can hear the whales. oop. you hear that?

parade and 29 people were killed and iranians are blaming separatists but saying the foreign attackers had represent from the u.s. a counterterrorism official and adviser is with us now. phil, good morning. i want to read what president hassan rouhani said while ago ago. he say the iranian government knows the perpetrators and instructors of saturday's terrorist attack and will not leave the blood shed unanswered. the government is ready to counter any action and the u.s. will regret and and the united states will not accomplish their goals in iran. how do you believe rouhani will retaliate if he does? >> i'm not sure you're what seeing much retaliation what he is doing is alleged backing for groups like this from countries lie qatar or saudi arabia. the tension of those cities is

outside of iran. you see fighting between saudi and iran-backed groups in syria and yemen. he i wouldn't be surprised to see iranian operations in those questions and i question his claims the americans are backing these guys in iran. i don't think that is happening. >> the u.s. fleet is in the gulf to protect the oil shipping routes. do you have a fear for those fleets? >> i don't have a fear for them but given the past day or so what we have seen from pompeo with incendiary language about the iranians the law of unintended consequence is really important here. if you look at a map and how tight the strait of hormuz is where the oil is exiting the arabian group. the american and iranian navies are active there and iranians provoke the americans to see what the american navy will do. you make one mistake there in a situation like this that is really tight, you could see something that neither side anticipates. that is what i worry about. the unanticipated consequence. >> you just mentioned secretary of state pompeo. let's listen to what he had to

say. >> we will not let iran get away with using a proxy force to attack an american interest. iran will be head accountable for those instances. if they are responsible for the arming and training of these militia we will go to the source. >> interview with cnn there. that language draws an image, think, of the u.s. and iran standing at a line, phil, and kind of this staredown. with that said, how close is the u.s. to some sort of real altercation with iran, do you think? >> i don't think very close but let'snd. we have opportunities in the united states short of some direct confrontation with the iranians. i mentioned early iranian activities with militias in places like yemen and syria. you could easily see the americans say we want to up the ante how we either directly engage with the iranian-backed militias or help other countries like saudi arabia engage with

them. i don't think what the secretary is talking about his language is tough to read but i don't think he is talking about a during the time confrontation with iran. what the heck are you going to do? stage an attack in iran? that is not going to happen. >> how do you think this will affect the newest general assembly? >> the iranians will speak about this and i can see the russian speaking about this. the problem we have when you look at the american perspective and american isolation overseas as we have challenged everybody from nato and the g-7 to the north koreans is that the iranians will turn to their traditional allies russians and chinese and say, hey, the americans are the aggressors here so why don't you protect me and russians and chinese will say we are with the iranians on this. >> so interesting. fi phil mudd, thank you for being here and love your perspective. >> 44 days until the midterm

former first lady michelle obama is in las vegas tonight to rally voters and spotlight the issues at stake ahead of the midterm election. joining me now to discuss is democratic strategist and founder of kevin cake. he was a spokesman for the obama campaign in 2008. good morning to you, kevin. >> good morning, victor. >> the effort is or the organization is when we all vote. michelle obama is getting back on the road. she is making an effort to get people to vote, not like her husband, the former president, to vote for democrats. why is she focusing on a nonpartisan initiative? >> well, i think what you're

seeing with the obama's in general, specifically the former first lady, is the politic of addition verse the politics of division which, you know, you see what they are trying to do is add voters and make sure to remind people not to boo as the former president used to say, but to go vote. and what is happening is when you add these voters, when you speak to the values that every day voters have, it doesn't have to be divisive. it doesn't have to be the rhetoric we have heard from donald trump. while they are out registering voters, you see donald trump's rallies just trying to register insult. so i think what this is reminding people of is a time before the poison of donald trump's politic. >> but is there a contradiction here between what the former president, the former first lady are saying? the president is saying, listen, you've got to get out and vote and this is if you want accountability for the president, you've got to vote for democrats. but that is not what we are hearing from michelle obama. she is just getting people

registered and getting them to vote and there are democratic candidates who say she is the biggest name on the list of potential endorsements or surrogates. we need her to come out and say vote for us. >> yeah. no doubt she is beyond saying everybody loves michelle obama, but i don't think it's contradictory if that is your question because what the president is saying he is reminding people of bringing people together, the former first lady is reminding people to vote. i think what the candidates do and the candidates have an obligation to do this because this election is not about what donald trump would like to be about which is hillary clinton. it's about real issues and democrats all across the country need to be reminded that we have to give people something to vote for and not against. that was the big lesson in 2016. while the obama's can carry part of this message it's up to the candidates to give people a reason to vote. in 2008 people remember the hope and the change. they don't remember but the obama's campaigned on very specific issues, health care being one of them, which we are seeing that come back full

circle now. but these are, you know, issues that the democratic candidates actually have to carry and not something they can put on the shoulder of the obama's. >> this appears to be focused on young people going through social media, lots of celebrities. but we know, especially during mid terms, that the youth vote is dramatically lower than other groups. let's put up the numbers from the 2014 mid terms. 18 to 29-year-olds made up just 13% of the electorate there. how is this different? we have seen rock the vote and other get out the vote efforts focused on young people and celebrity-driven, well-funded and through gentleman on the networks and channels and platforms they watch. how is this different? >> i think it's different. number one, we are in a different political environment. i live in florida. you saw what happened in parkland and pulse in orlando. these are individual in a whole generation that is tired of the

angry grandpa donald trump, you know, spewing angry rhetoric and not carrying about them and not being able to relate to them. i do think as cynical you can get being a political consultant what we are seeing on the ground here with candidates who are energizing this vote in florida, mayor andrew gillham i think you're seeing massive amounts of energy from young people, people of color who are ready to stand up and participate in democracy unlike they have ever done before and as the president, former president obama reminds us, the system isn't broke. it's working for many of the people who are participating in the system. what has happened is the people who need to be participating, the young people, people who are underrepresented are getting "there and voting and the obama's can carry that message and when we give people a reason to vote for something and not just against that is how we win. that is how we get young people to the polls. >> you brought up the governor's race there in florida. the democrat gillham versus the

republican -- mayor gillham to give him his due. we know the president is out. ed at his rally in missouri you're not voting for the candidates on the ballot, you're voting for me. does a visit from president anybody that is what you would consider a swing voter. he won the state but an entirely different makeup electorate with we see and a different political climate.
