4:00 am
dementia. it's not like alzheimer's, but turner it says leaves him feeling tired, exhausted, mainly forgetful. he still doesn't watch news much anymore, still checks in on cnn. he launched the turner broadcast system before launching senior citizen e in 1980. he stepped down in 2003, but his legacy continues to resonate certainly here at cnn. hey, hey, ho, ho, kavanaugh has got to go. >> judge kavanaugh has unequivocally denied the allegations. >> judge kavanaugh's qualifications have been put forward by renowned scholars. >> you're allowing someone who actually violated a woman to sit in the court. >> i think it would be proper to
4:01 am
delay the floor vote in order to let the fbi do an investigation. >> the fbi investigation has to be very thorough, complete. >> this is ripping the country apart. this is "new day weekend" with victor blackwell and christi paul. >> good morning, everyone to you, one minute past 7:00 on a saturday morning. just when the gop maybe felt confident that they had the votes to put brett kavanaugh supreme court by the end of next week, he along with everyone else has to wait as the fbi conducts this few background check that has been ordered by president trump. >> the drama started when senator jeff flake had, let's call them second thoughts, and joined other senators saying that he would not vote yes on kavanaugh without an fbi investigation. >> as he announced the probe, the president said he is still backing his noiminee.
4:02 am
the president is in west virginia later for a re-election rally. he started at the white house, and that's where we find ryan nobles. good to see you. what are you hearing? >> reporter: good morning. the president not very happy about this latest development in his efforts to get judge brett kavanaugh confirmed to the united states supreme court. at this point he is sticking by his pick, tweeting, quote, just started tonight our seventh fbi investigation of judge kavanaugh. he will someday be recognized as a truly great justice of the united states supreme court. there's a couple of important points to draw out of the tweet. the president pointing out that this is the seventh time the fbi has looked into brett kavanaugh's backgrounds. meaning that the president views him ag being thoroughly vet -- as being thoroughly vetted by the agency over many, many years. secondly, he still believes that ultimately kavanaugh will win nomination. this was a curve ball for the white house. they felt confident going into
4:03 am
friday's hearing that kavanaugh had performed well on thursday, and that there would be no problems with the senate judiciary committee, that he would pass through to the senate floor, and ultimately be confirmed. senator jeff flake, an irritant to the trump administration since after the president was inaugurated, decided that he would tell mitch mcconnell that he would not vote for kavanaugh's nomination without an fbi investigation. so that means that the clock is ticking. a one-week opportunity for the fbi to look into the claims against judge brett kavanaugh. the question that many have is what will be the scope of the investigation. listen to what flake's expectations are. >> when you talk about credible allegations, can you explain had what that means, what you're looking for from the fbi? >> obviously that includes the our allegations, to interview
4:04 am
people there. and i'm sure "the new yorker" piece about the allegation. they will have to decide at the fbi what that is and how far it goes. >> reporter: there's the accusations from dr. christine blasey ford but will the allegations by brett kavanaugh by investigated in a week. that's the story in washington as the confirmation still very much in doubt. >> thank you very much. a lot of people wondering what influenced republican senator jeff flake to switch things up here? he went from saying that he would vote for kavanaugh around 9:30 yesterday morning. hours later demanding the fbi investigation prior to the final vote. what happened in between, a lot of people are speculating the confrontation in the elevator that you'll see influenced him. >> i was sexually assaulted.
4:05 am
nobody believes me. i didn't tell anyone. you're telling all women that they don't matter. that they should just stay quiet because if they tell you what happened to them, you're going to ignore them. that's what happened to me. and that's what you're telling all women in america, that they don't matter. they should keep it to themselves because if they had told the truth, they're going to help that man to power anyway. that's what you're telling all of these women. that's what you're telling me right now. look at me when i'm talking to you. you're telling me that my assault doesn't matter. that what happened to me doesn't matter, and that you're going to let people who do these things into power. that's what you're telling me when you vote for him. don't look away from me. look at me and tell me it doesn't matter what happened to me. that you'll let people like that go into the highest court in the land after what they did to our bodies. >> a lot of people look at that moment and can see how he was
4:06 am
moved by. it anderson cooper spoke with one of the protesters who confronted the senator in the elevator. shears what she said was going through her -- here's what she said was going through her mind. >> i felt like he needed to hear and understand that women feel incredibly enraged about the thought of or stories, of our experiences of surviving sexual violence being dismissed, laughed at, disbelieved. and i think -- i. a great sense of urgency. i saw in his face that he could not escape the emotion. i wanted him to really stay there and be present and think of the people he loves, think of his children. i wanted him to be a hero. last hour we spoke with tom phen-feven fuentes, law analyst, about the
4:07 am
investigation. the former assistant director of the fbi talked about issues that could come up. >> no, i think they are important issues, particularly the drinking. that's what i focussed in on as he described how much he liked beer -- >> but -- >> i think the drinking could come up. he was pretty definitive that he never passed out. what if -- if they come up with a witness who said, yeah, i know when he drank so much he did pass out or drank so much he got angry or had an anger management problem during a drinking episode, that could be devastating to his side, to his story. >> what could it do to his story is the question. political analyst and congressional reporter for political rachel bed and michael moore, former u.s. attorney for middle georgia. i want to ask you. h how might it affect him, affect the vote if they can't
4:08 am
corroborate what dr. ford says but can find that there was real serious alcohol use here that did impair his decisions? >> we've heard about this being a trial and what the burden of proof is. when you have an investigation, they will look at his credibility. if a witness says he was impaired, passed out, these are small things that we can see that he's maybe not telling the truth about. when you don't tell the truth on the little things, it casts doubt on your version of the big things. if they develop evidence where he's been drinking and passed out, that's a problem. they'll be interested, frankly, i've been through the background checks, they want to know whether or not you've got an alcohol problem, whether or not you've got a substance abuse problem, has that been going on through his life. he was clear probably a dozen times when he talked about his affinity for drinking beer now. nothing wrong with somebody having a beer.
4:09 am
if this is a pattern through his life, that will end up in a report during his background check. >> i want to ask you, rachel, former fbi special agent tweeted earlier, there were several, but she basically was saying that background checks -- because there's been a lot made that this man has gone through six fbi background checks, they're not cumulative. in other words, they don't start from the beginning. what she says is the mant point saying he went through six background checks is misleading since each subsequent one would have covered a later and later portion of his life. she's saying only that first ba background check would have gone to high school, to college. that said, how important is this in terms of going back and does it disqualify for the purposes of what they're looking for these other five background checks that have been done on him? ? >> i don't think the background checks before are disqualified
4:10 am
in any way. i do think that this new one, it puts the nomination in peril for brett kavanaugh. there was a meeting where mitch mcconnell sat down with susan collins, lisa murkowski, and jeff flake, all senators who have backed the new fbi backgrounds check investigation before -- background check investigation before the vote. he said this is not going to make voting for him any easier. he warned that the longer -- while they do this investigation it could become tougher. the reason is because the investigation so far into the allegations has been contained in the senate judiciary committee. there's a few staffers working on it. the fbi do this for a living. they have resources, they can look at whether he lied to congress, they can look at his drinking. and the nation now, people might call the fbi and bring up new allegations. this is tough for him going
4:11 am
forward. i don't know that republicans could have done anything else, though. coming out of the hearings on thursday, a lot of senate republicans found ford to be believable and credible. naturally for republicans who are moderates or people like jeff flake who are retiring and not sort of wielded to party, the next call is for an investigation. i'm not surprised they ended up doing this. >> michael, in terms of an investigation, they don't have subpoena power, do they? can they force all these people that they're going to be looking for this week to talk -- >> the cup has subpoena power. they can look at people and bring them in. if you give a false statement to the fbi agent, it's a 1001 violation. the problem for kavanaugh, the new investigation will be more focused on these specific circumstances, the specific allegations. in a general backgrounds check, they want ton -- background check, they want to know what your credit cards are, where you lived and worked when you're 18.
4:12 am
they're not doing that now because the background checks build on one another. this is like a renewal of a security clearance, renewal background check. they'll say, has anything changed, is everything correct in previous reports, anything to add, change, amend. at this point they're going to be looking at what was out there. there's plenty to look at. did judge -- was he working at the grocery store when dr. ford says -- does that snatch has there been any other polygraphs, statements, has anybody reached out to anybody. do you remember seeing him passed out? do you remember seeing him at p.o.w.s hear-- at house parties? this is what skilled investigators will look at. they may not get physical evidence corroboration but may develop evidence where judge kavanaugh has been less than truthful. i've taken some exception with the things thrown around by the committee. listened to them talk about decency and how we've treat -- we treat somebody decent and right. listened to them talk that way during the hearing is a little bit like being lectured by a pig about the virtues of cleanliness. it was silly, the whole thing.
4:13 am
just turned into a silly activity. he stands in great jeopardy with renewed emphasis on what he did then and what he said because it's never -- never just what happened in the back. it's the efforts minimize it and cover it up as you go forward. >> there was such tremendous interest. the millions who watched this on television on thursday, watched again yesterday. the hearing that was going on. rachel -- is there any sense that what the fbi does discover or does not will be made public? >> yeah, i think so. i think that senate democrats are absolutely going to want to unveil something -- unless it's something disastrous and he withdraws before it becomes public. i know during the hearing kavanaugh talked about how the past ten days, ever since the allegations came up, have up-ended his life and how every day was pretty much like five
4:14 am
years. when asked why he wasn't supporting an investigation, he basically said to senate democrats, i've already gone through hell the past ten days. the next seven days will be tough on him and his family. we'll have to see if he stays nirks doin this, does he withdraw. if he does withdraw, i would guess that nothing is going to come out publicly. if he doesn't, i think we'll see this report and the results of it in the public. >> i have ten seconds. >> i think they both -- american people deserve to have questions answered and he deserves to have this thing run through. he doesn't need to enter the court if that's what happens. he doesn't need to enter the court with the cloud for the rest of his legal career. >> all righty. michael moore and rachy el bade. thank you. you've seen the crowds of people flooding capitol hill to protest the support of brett kavanaugh. most of them women. the organizer of the women's

the senate is obviously divided over supreme court nominee brett kavanaugh's nomination. and allegations of sexual assault made against brett kavanaugh. more now political commentator and ted cruz's former communications director. republican strategist and author of "gop gps." scott jennings, political
4:29 am
commentator and former special assistant to president george w. bush is back with us. welcome, everyone, to the conversation. scott, let me start with you. we've had a little more than 12 hours now since the president has ordered this investigation into these accusations. a little time to think of it. maybe a little time to sleep, not much for us these days. are you convinced that mitch mcconnell is right, that as this goes on, it will be more difficult to support brett kavanaugh, or will it be a good thing? >> it will be a good thing if it acheers the outcome of getting senators flake, collins, and murkowski to vote for him. if that's the outcome, that's great. what i don't think we'll see is any acceptance from the democrats of a better process of the outcome general n general. you hear people since this say, well, there shouldn't be a time limit on it. and it doesn't matter what the fbi finds. they should pull kavanaugh down. you have democratic operatives
4:30 am
openly talking about impeaching kavanaugh, whether he makes it to the supreme court or stays on the dice circuit court of -- the d.c. circuit court of appeals. i think senator flake wanted the investigation to give these people to say it was a better chance in the process. i don't think any democrat will give a speech and say, you know, you're right, we're going to vote for kavanaugh now. that is a pipe dream. >> you're probably right on that last one. you don't have to go to the democratic party for people who don't support kavanaugh. you just have to look in the box next to you. evan sigfried, you wrote for nbc news weeks before the testimony from dr. ford and this latest testimony on thursday from judge kavanaugh that not only should the senate vote no, that he should withdraw, why? >> well, i think i'm the only one on the panel who's actually served in the federal judiciary. and the federal judiciary is about integrity and maintaining the integrity of the rule of law. the allegations against brett kavanaugh have been deemed
4:31 am
credible enough by a sizable portion of the nation that he has to maintain the rule of law. any 5-4 decision which he is in the majority of would be tainted. we can't have people questioning the rule of law. it gets back to integrity and impartiality. that's a big problem. furthermore, we have also bungled the way we have handled these accusations as a party. i had friends call me in tears thursday night because they were sexual assault survivors and were reliving all of the pain because of the hearing. dr. ford came off as incredibly credible. to an extent, brett kavanaugh did, as well. but hearing that we were going to be having this confirmation vote -- judiciary committee vote to advance the judge at 9:30 a.m. the next day signals to women that we are a party that doesn't care about them. that's part of a longer standing narrative. >> alice, let's sit just for a second. the sexual assault allegations -- let's set just for a second the sexual assault allegations to the side.
4:32 am
i want you and everyone to listen to judge kavanaugh on september 4th when he was giving his opening statement and just on the 27th, thursday, through his opening statement, on politics. watch. >> the supreme court must never, never be viewed as a partisan institution. the justices on the supreme court do not sit on opposite sides of an aisle. they do not caucus in separate rooms. if confirmed to supreme court, i would be part of a team of nine committed to deciding cases according to the constitution and laws of the united states. the behavior of several of the democratic members of this committee in my hearing a few weeks ago was an embarrassment. this whole two-week effort has been a calculated and orchestrated political hit fueled with apparent pentup anger about president trump and
4:33 am
the 2016 election, fear that has been unfairly stoke goabout my judicial record, revenge on behalf of the clintons, and millions of dollars in money from outside, left-wing opposition groups. >> and cnn legal analyst joan pascubic wrote this for cnn doom, the result of his rhetoric and overall tenor of the nomination means he could forever be marked as a politician on the bench rather than a neutral jurist. >> he went from a man who i see as someone of tremendous integrity and character and a history in the judicial community that is above reproach and has a lifetime of -- of stellar character that he -- that has been put on trial here. because of some allegations and clearly he would have loved to have and supporters like myself
4:34 am
would have loved to have this move forward based on his credentials and his record. unfortunately, it's taken a different turn. it has gotten political. in my view, if we're talking about this area, i don't think this has anything to do with revenge over trump, over the election, over the clintons. in my view, this is about the democrats' fight for abortion and their desire to keep roe versus wade the law of the land, and the vile and the lengths they are going to to protect roe v. wade, i think that is what is on display here. and i -- i hope we get through this with judge kavanaugh on the bench. that in my view is the underpinning of the process we're going through. >> that's not your view. but scott, that was his view. and if -- not if but say he gets on to the court and there will be an issue that comes before the court that falls pretty clearly and cleanly along party lines, his decision will be cast
4:35 am
in that context, will it not, and give fodder to those that say he is a partisan, not a neutral jurist. >> people are already saying that. the democrats say that anybody that trump puts on the bunch is acting out of partisan interests -- >> those were his words. he wrote that. >> sheldon whitehouse said i'm going to vote against kavanaugh because i think he's going to do the bidding of the corporations in the republican party. it won't matter who donald trump puts on the bench for the democrats to say these are all partisan actors. i'd like to address what evan said. evan's going one way and the rest of the republican party is going the other. in two years of donald trump i have never seen an issue that has united the never trumpers, the lukewarm trumpers, never trumpers, all corners, wings of the m-- of the republican party are galvanized against brett kavanaugh. you will be hard pressed to find anyone in the republican party who is against --
4:36 am
>> i am part of the judiciary and -- >> let me finish -- >> i know brett kavanaugh and you don't. i'm going to defend -- >> one at a time. >> i'm standing way out, i'm out away from the republican party -- >> you're outside -- you absolutely are. >> that's fine. that's absolutely fine. you're talking politically, i'm talking for the integrity of the bench. >> you want somebody who says -- >> sir -- >> let him finish. scoot, we'll have time for you. >> at the end of the day, these allegations would get somebody who's up for a federal minimum wage straight appointment disqualified. i supported brett kavanaugh up until the allegations which i deemed credible. i believe that it's for the integrity of the bench because judges care about the rule of law and integrity of the institution. we have 18% of the country has faith in the federal government and its institutions. why are we going to lower it? we can get amy coney barrett or some other conservative judge. this is ironic because as somebody who opposed president trump in the election, this was a nieomination where i was behi it until this. we saw theatrics from the domes
4:37 am
in the nomination hearings. but dr. ford's accusations are not theatrics. they are real. >> what about the intaking of the resumption? what about the intaking -- integrity of the resumption of innocence? i don't understand how you can say i'm in the judiciary when an innocent person is seen -- >> let scott finish, evan. >> he said he didn't do -- >> let me get now to alice and bring you back into the conversation. a control room, i don't know if you saw my e-mail. i need the sound bite from the exchange between the women at the elevator and senator flake. let me know when you have that. we're not going to wait for it. let me come to you, alice, i'm sure you've seen it. have you seen the exchange there was the women for five minutes? let's play it. we've got it. all right. forget the sound bite. we've all seen it. what would you tell those women,
4:38 am
alice, who said that if you vote for him, what you're telling the country is that women who come forward who say that they have been and have been sexually assaulted do not matter? what would you tell them? >> i would tell them -- i would aplau need for coming out and -- applaud them for coming out and speaking up and letting their voice be heard. clearly it resonated. you could see the pain and the compassion on senator flake's face. clearly it made an impact. he went from telling members of the committee that he would support moving kavanaugh out of the committee to saying i will support moving him out provided we bring in an fbi to look at this for one more week. it was without a doubt the compelling emotional plea from these women for him to listen to them and let their voice be heard and probe into this further made an impact. i encourage them to go to every other member of -- in washington that have allegations against
4:39 am
them and do the samement anyone that has -- same. anyone that has sexual or abuse allegations against them, we should look at all of the history. and the same standard should apply for all of them. not just republicans going for the supreme court. we have democrats out there that also have allegations that they are facing. and we all should look at all of them. it's not just the party issue. >> after -- after listening to them and asking for the investigation, still vote yes for brett kavanaugh. >> certainly we're going to hear the. we're going to hear the evidence that the fbi brings out. i don't expect it to be anything different than we heard when the members of the senate judiciary committee raised these questions. and yes, i do see that we move forward with the confirmation of judge kavanaugh because i don't expect to get any additional information out of the fbi probe than we did from the questions out of the senate committee. >> alice, scott, evan, thank you all. >> thanks. >> thanks. >> thank you.

i'm up for that. eliquis. eliquis is proven to reduce stroke risk better than warfarin. plus has significantly less major bleeding than warfarin. eliquis is fda-approved and has both. so what's next? seeing these guys. don't stop taking eliquis unless your doctor tells you to, as stopping increases your risk of having a stroke. eliquis can cause serious and in rare cases fatal bleeding. don't take eliquis if you have an artificial heart valve or abnormal bleeding. while taking eliquis, you may bruise more easily and it may take longer than usual for any bleeding to stop. seek immediate medical care for sudden signs of bleeding, like unusual bruising. eliquis may increase your bleeding risk if you take certain medicines. tell your doctor about all planned medical or dental procedures. eliquis, the number one cardiologist-prescribed blood thinner. ask your doctor if eliquis is what's next for you.

want to share here of indonesia. after a powerful earthquake which then triggered a tsunami. look at this. >> the water's just sweeping up on to the coast, wiping out neighborhoods there. nearly 400 people have been killed. hundreds of people injured. even more missing. rescuers are trying to reach survivors. cnn's matt rivers is following this for us. what have you learned? yeah, this is an ongoing situation that we do expect to get worse if not much worse given the defaulting challenges that rescuers face moving forward. 384 dead so far, but we are expecting that number to go up as rescue operations continue in palu where this happened. that number, that death figure, only comes from the city of palu because rescuers have not been able to assess the extent of the
4:46 am
damage in surrounding areas. take the city of donggala, for example. not that far away from palu. it has 300,000 people in it. communication lines in the city are down, and rescuers have not been able to get a handle on exactly how bad the damage was there. they certainly know that that place was affected. it is now evening in indonesia. so of course rescue operations get harder at night. and as they work to try and find people, we know that it's going to take a long time. it will be very difficult. >> matt rivers for us. thank you. during judge brett kavanaugh's hearing, calls to the national sexual assault hotline skyrocketed. ahead, how one organization is hoping to say no more.

and tracy, thank you so much for being with us again. the campaign focussed on ending demetsic violence and sexual assault, just so you know. i think struck people more than most. let's talk a look. >> in the hippa campus is the laughter. the uprorrious laughter between the two and they're having fun at my expense. >> she had been asked what is your most vividmemory and she couldn't get the laughter of the fact that somebody was on top of her as they were laughing at heir. do you think that was the moment that struck a cord for somany people? >> i think that when sexual assault survivors process information, they often realize they forget a lot of information and yet they focus in on the
4:52 am
details. so those specific details, the laughter. sometimes they focus on an object in front of them and they remember those details. so for a lot of sexual assault survivors, they recognized that as a very common trigger they have and a memory they might have of the assault they experienced. >> and just listening to her say that would trigger what we hear from the national sexual assault hotline, that more than 200% their calls went on on thursday? this was just on thursday. >> i think with that and the news cycle right now has been very triggering for survivors. at no more, we've experienced a huge uptick in our social media presence and it's because anything can remind a victim of the trauma they experienced and that's all it takes is one memory and it brings them right
4:53 am
back to the situation that they experienced and they have all of those fears, all of that anxiety and they're right back to that situation. >> i want to listen to you to something that senator lehigh said after he read about the uptick in calls. let's listen. >> when survivors see us taking sexual assault seriously, they're empowered to come forward. if they see us callously sweeping it under the rug. i fear they'll have disastrous consequences. it will not matter even if they are believed, then why come forward at all. >> how much is what we're watch in and how much this appointment mean to women who have suffered this way? >> i think that we've seen that this is a really big deal for
4:54 am
survivors in general and it makes them realize are they being believed? and i think they're demanding, survivors are demanding to be believed right now and that's important. we have so much education around the experience of survivors and the characteristics of an offender and the culture that u sexual assault and it will impact people coming forward and how they talk about survivors as it relates to this case and it will prevent people from coming forward and it may change who they go to and if they stay silent and i think it's also empowering them to come forward and be a voice and make sure their voice is heard. >> thank you so much. for being here and helping us kind of understand the impact of all of this and we just want to
