>> totally, dude. quick, jump through the window. unwelcome. in a scathing editorial the mayor of london says rolling out the red carpet for donald trump is un-british. this just ahead of the president's state visit to the u.k. the push to limit abortion in the u.s. more and more republican states are passing restrictive laws. the strategy, take it all the way to the supreme court. we'll discuss with our panel. liverpool fans ecstatic after the reds clenched european futb f futball glory. expect more celebration like
12:01 am
that on sunday. the team is set to parade through liverpool. i'm cyril vanier. it is great to have you with us. >> so the mayor of london is lashing out against donald trump hours before the u.s. president heads for england. sudeep khan has often been critical of mr. trump, but he says donald trump has been one of the most egregious examples of the glowing global threat. the far right is on the rise around the world threatening our hard won rights and freedoms that have defined our society for more than 70 years. khanulse says mr. trump's divisive behavior flies in the face of ideals of which america was founded and says it is un-british to be rolling out the red carpet for him. meanwhile mr. trump had been weighing in on british politics. in on interview with the sunday
12:02 am
times he again praised foreign secretary boris johnson on his bed to become prime minister. criticized out going theresa may and her negotiations on brexit and said if it were up to him he wouldn't bay the $50 billion price tag for leaving the european union. >> well, if i were them i wouldn't pay $50 billion. it's a big number. that's me. i'm only saying this from my standpoint. that's a tremendous number. >> some of these candidates are saying they'd walk away if they don't get what they want others disagree. presumably you think the way to get a deal -- >> i would walk away. this is their decision. you're just asking my opinion. i would not -- if you dent get the deal you want, if you dent get a fair deal then you walk away. >> mr. trump also praised brexit party leader nigel faraj pointing to his poll numbers saying he would send faraj to negotiate brexit with the european union.
12:03 am
>> i like nigel a lot, and i think he's got a lot to offer, he's got a lot to offer. and obviously a lot of people agree with me because i saw his numbers and they were very good from a couple of days ago. i think he's an asset to your country. >> joining me now is michael osheer, a cnn political analyst and white house correspondent for "the new york times." michael, i don't know if you agree with me but from trump's perspective this is arguably the best time to visit the u.k. since he became president. >> well, sure it's a good time. i mean in some ways he goes there at a time when his political power visa vi the leader of britain is greater, right? she's on the way out. he can come to england and at a time when the brexit that he had so forcefully supported at the beginning seems like, you know, that the forces supporting
12:04 am
brexit are on the rise as opposed to having taken a back seat as they had before. so in that way his arrival there is at an opportune time for him. >> yeah, and that's exactly what i meant. you look at the people he has consistently backed whether it is nigel farage or boris johnson. boris johnson is now the front-runner to be the next british prime minister. >> right. and see, the way president trump thinks is really all about himself, right? what kind of reflection does european politics, in this case british politics, have on his standing in the kind of movement that brought him to power. and from his perspective what he sees is the forces of populism, the forces of sort of anti-establishment politics that sort of kind of brought him to the take over of the republican party here in the states and
12:05 am
ultimately to the presidency are similar to the forces that are sweeping through europe and have been for several years. but they ebb and flow, and this is a moment where at least from his perspective it looks like those same forces are on the rise again. and i think he always relates it back to himself. and so i think it makes him feel good. >> and it allows him to make the argument that his politics, not just himself, but his politics are validated by even voters in britain. and that's the simplest reading really of nigel farage's brexit party coming out on top in european elections. >> right, i think it can be overstated. you saw steve bannon who is or was one of trump's kind of earliest and biggest kind of strategic advisers is over there in europe trying to make the case this is sort of a wave that's sweeping across the whole world. i think you've seen certainly some victories as in farage but
12:06 am
also other places where the populist wave hasn't been as strong. and so, you know, i think donald trump is never one for nuance. he's never one for coming across the pond and saying, look, you know, there's some, you know, things on both sides that argue for a sort of nuanced view of politicsmi politics. no, he's going to come in and try to claim a complete victory the same way he claims victory here in the states. >> he's also not one for civility. in his previous interview this one not with the sunday times but with the sun on friday he called meghan markle nasty and his hosts are just going to have to contend with the that. >> i'm no royal experts so i don't know how they will react. but i've got to say as a person who's watched trump over the last 3 or so years this was a pretty mild version of trump. yes, he used the word nasty
12:07 am
that's true, but he also said nice things about her, and it seemed like the interviewer was kind of egging him onto try to say something, you know, against meghan markle. and so i don't know my guess, and it's purely a guess -- >> the word he used was excellently. meghan markle will do excellently. >> my guess just the way these protocol visits usually go is that the royals will probably not make an issue of that publicly. and maybe there's some private griping, but i would be really surprised if that comment threw a monkey wrench in really anything with his visit coming up. >> i agree, i think that comment starts and ends really at the time it was said. i don't think it goes any further. and there's also a lot in this article gave us an interesting winnow into his negotiating tactic. for instance, he said he would walk away with negotiations with the european union if he were in britain's shoes if they don't get what they want.
12:08 am
and we can take him at his word for this. this is something he has done. >> it's not only something he's done, it's the only thing he does. in essence, the sort of history of presidential negotiation in the trump administration has essentially been one of threats and bullying. and sometimes that has seemed to work, where he'll make threats and bully and sort of demand that he gets what he wants. and that causes the kind of negotiation where he temporarily gets what he wants. he got meetings with chairman kim in north korea. he got at least a sort of a beginning of an approval of the u.s. mca, the new nafta agreement. and what he's trying to do with the tariffs now and negotiation with mexico, trying to use this blunt force threat of massive tariffs on every good coming in to the united states from mexico, in trying to get them to
12:09 am
do what he wants in terms of stopping immigrants from coming into the united states. he is almost unapologetic in his understanding that's the way he views negotiations. >> he explained in fact his strategy to "the sun" saying you've got to walk into any negotiation from a position of strength and that clearly is what you say what he's trying to do with these threats of tariffs on mexico. presidnt trump took to twitter on saturday to defend threatening mexico with tariff. he says the country allows millions of people to come through the country and invade the u.s. mexico's president calls the tariffs unfair but also says he's open to negotiations. ae . >> reporter: the mexican president on saturday called for dialogue with the united states to try and resolve a growing
12:10 am
dispute over whether or not the trump administration will place tariffs on mexican products that are sold in the u.s. the trump administration accuses mexico of not doing enough to stem the tide of illegal immigration to the u.s. mexico's government says that's just not accurate, that they have deported thousands of immigrants mostly coming from central america and they've also given humanitarian visas for thousands of other immigrants to try to get them to stay in mexico and not continue north. all the same, though, the trump administration says they continue to see thousands of migrants trying to cross into the united states, sometimes hundreds on a single day and new mexico simply needs to do more. it's not clear, though, if tariffs are really going to have the effect the trump administration wants them to because republicans have criticized this. you have had pro-business leaders who have criticized this saying it's going to make mexico's economy -- drive mexico's economy into recession.
12:11 am
it's going to worsen economic conditions here, and that could increase more immigration or more illegal immigration. all the same, though, mexico says they're doing whatever they can to try to reach an agreement. they have sent officials to the united states to talk with the trump administration, that they are trying to establish a dialogue. it's not clear yet, though, if the trump administration is willing to listen. patri patrick oppmann, cnn, mexico city. the city of virginia beach, virginia is grieving after a deadly shooting rampage in a municipal building. it will hold a memorial service on thursday for victims of the attack. all but one of the 12 people killed were city employees. most of them with many years of service. four other people remain hospitalized and a police officer wounded in the shootout with the gunman fortunately was treated and then released. the gunman also died. his family posted a statement on
12:12 am
their front door but offered no clues about his actions. they told drn that they were not aware he had any work related problems. without clear-cut answers the city at this moment can only mourn. vrgin virginia's governor ordered state flags lowered to half staff. president trump ordered all u.s. flags order half staff as well. >> let me just say this, we will not be defined by this horror. we will go forward. we are a city of resiliency and resolve. the true character of our city is going to rest with our public, our citizens and our neighbors that we share borders with. >> dozens of fbi agents have now taken over collecting evidence in the case. federal investigators say the shooter used two handguns in the crime. >> our work with virginia beach,
12:13 am
our partners with the fbi, we've identified two weapons used in the shooting. both weapons are .45 caliber pistols. one was purchased in 2016, one in 2018. both pistols were purchased by the shooter and all indications were they were purchased legally. >> if police know the motive they're not saying. we do know the shooter was a certified engineer in the public utilities department and had been with the city for about 15 years. coworkers say he was generally a quiet person who revealed no clues of what he was about to do. 11 of the 12 victims were dedicated employees murdered at their workplace. the 12th was a contractor coming in for a permit. here are their names and faces. we'll be right back. can't see what it is yet.re? what is that? that's a blazer? that's a chevy blazer? aww, this is dope. this thing is beautiful.
12:14 am
i love the lights. oh man, it's got a mean face on it. it looks like a piece of candy. look at the interior. this is nice. this is my sexy mom car. i would feel like a cool dad. it's just really chic. i love this thing. it's gorgeous. i would pull up in this in a heartbeat. i want one of these. that is sharp. the all-new chevy blazer. speaks for itself. i don't know who they got to design this but give them a cookie and a star. we were paying an arm and a leg for postage. i remember setting up shipstation. one or two clicks and everything was up and running. i was printing out labels and saving money. shipstation saves us so much time. it makes it really easy and seamless. pick an order, print everything you need, slap the label onto the box, and it's ready to go. our costs for shipping were cut in half. just like that. shipstation. the #1 choice of online sellers. go to shipstation.com/tv and get 2 months free.

12:17 am
12:18 am
they're now headed home for a victory parade set for sunday afternoon. it's a victory that feels almost too good to be true. >> i could not believe until now. it is just like i'm still dreaming, but, yeah, i think i'm here now so we won the champions league. >> what is the next dream for you? >> more and more focus to win. >> amazing, amazing. we won the champions league title. it's just amazing after a long time to win the champions league again. and for me especially too the second time and it's amazing. >> liverpool's first goal came right there. from mo salah, convert that early penalty. then let's take a look. and a score in the final few minutes of the game to seal the
12:19 am
victory. it seemed liverpool had something to prove after that heart breaking defeat against real madrid in last year emphasis final. as any football fan will tell you one victory means anothers defeat. we begin with alex thomas and the overjoyed liverpool fans. >> the liverpool fans are leaving now to join the party in the streets. but for much of the night here at liverpool's exhibition center it was as packed and as noisy as you would get in a football stadium. those here watching on the big screen because they couldn't be at the time in madrid in person to see liverpool beat tottenham 2-0 in that champions league final, but they were delighted in the team they cherish as liverpool claims the top title in european club football for the sixth time. only two teams have ever won it on more occasions. and that was a huge contrast from 12 months ago when i was up
12:20 am
in liverpool as they lost to real madrid. now the liverpool boss has finally shown not only is he popular with his broad smile and cheeky charisma but also he's successful. confirmation of the work he's been doing for several years now and all the investment put into liverpool by their american owners. the party is just getting started, that's for sure. alex thomas, cnn, liverpool. >> a hot summer night in an english biergarten in north london and the remnants of a party. tottenham failing to win their first european champions league. the dream hasn't come true. controversy surrounds the big call for the manager. should tottenham have started
12:21 am
their center forward alex kane. he said, yes, and most people here to us said no. ultimately tottenham never got going in the first half. kane was not involved, and tottenham of course behind early didn't really recover. when they found their feet late in the second half it all looked a little too late because more of the man most fans here wanted to start eventually came onto a loud cheer, but didn't find the score sheet. liverpool did again, and tottenham's dream has come apart. they did it the hard way. their route to the final was littered with wonderful stories, great comebacks. some of those entertaining football we've seen in a long,
12:22 am
long time. and of course it was all unexpected. this a club that didn't spend a dime, a cent, a penny last summer in the transfer window or in january. so to get this far unexpected, unprecedented but it didn't happen. the pub couldn't pump beer halfway through the night. it too sputtered behind the bar. i guess symptomatic of the nights in north london in general. not a night to be remembered. cnn. >> even the pubs weren't working in london. british fans took one on the chin in another sport saturday night, boxing. anthony joshua suffered his first professional defeat and lost his titles. his stunning loss toandy, jr. is being called one of the greatest shocks in boxing history. he knocked joshua down four
12:23 am
times before the fight was stopped in the seventh round. and roads are under water, farmland is submerged as historic flooding breaches levees and threatens communities along the arkansas river. natasha chen has the view from above. >> reporter: there's yultusuall cattle all over joseph's property, but he says most of the cattle has been moved to higher ground. >> due to the lack of income and not being able to produce any crops. >> reporter: crops like corn, soybeans, rice which are distributed to other parts of the country. he says he sprays pesticides and fertilizer for a living so he'll have to find work in other states. right now we're flying over a wildlife refuge and close to where the levee breached. we can tell the opening is already much bigger than it was a day ago. but this dam further north is
12:24 am
structurally sound even with the unusual violent flow of water. senator tom cotton grew up in this area. >> it's hard to describe how abnormal this is. if you go up the highway a little bit there are entire baseball parks and even basketball goals now that are completely submerged under water. >> reporter: we saw black hawk helicopters dropping large sandbags, just one of the ways local, state and federal partners are trying to mitigate the damage. and however difficult the challenge is the mayor says they'll get through this together. >> this is what happens. i could literally put a facebook message outright now and within 30 minutes i'd get 100 people. that's how much i believe in this town. >> reporter: cnn, arkansas. all right, let's get more details on all of this and what we have to look forward, if anything. meteorologist derek van dam joins us now. >> there are 70 river gauges
12:25 am
lining ten different states from north dakota all the way to louisiana indicating major flooding right now. some of them record setting. let's take you to another levee break. this on the arkansas river. there are five different locations from the arkansas river from oklahoma to arkansas, remember that goes across two states that are setting all-time record crests. mississippi river and st. louis expected to crest next tuesday around 46 feet. that's the second highest level on record. and then get this, some areas across that region have seen 300% to 400% more rain than they do in the month of may. so that 30-day period was exceptionally wet. let's talk about what's to come. look at the expected crest dates for some locations. you can see the flood stages here, well above what the -- the latest readings well above the flood stages. incredible amounts of water just moving across the mississippi river delta, and you can see all the dots and squares we've
12:26 am
highlighted here with individual colors indicating all the river gauges with major, moderate and minor flooding that is occurring right now. you can see on this particular river gauge, for instance, the current level at 12.43 meters with flood stage at 6.7 meters. so we're at current major flood stage in the arkansas river at the van buren gauge. unfortunately, there's some bad weather to come. more rainfall across the areas that have been hit the harldest. as we head into the second half of this week the potential exists for another 100 to 150 millimeters of rainfall on top of an already saturated soil. remember that is going to bring us the potential for more flooding as the water seeps and its own level makes its way down stream and eventually into the arkansas and mississippi river regions. i want to switch gears. this is technically the atlantic basin. we have potential tropical development. this is the last thing we need. we had the first official day of the atlantic hurricane season on
12:27 am
june 1st, yesterday. now we have the potential for a storm growing and could impact the east coast of mexico, perhaps even into the southern sections of texas. right where we would expect storms to form this time of year. the waters in the gulf of mexico starting to warm. you can see the rainfall totals in that region. and by the way, the national oceanic atmospheric sfr administration calling for an average rainy season this year. >> we're going to keep you busy or the weather is going to keep you busy. >> it certainly has. the u.s. is consumed by debate over abortion rights and with some conservative led states passing new bills that would restrict access to abortion care, it's becoming more relevant and more complex than ever. we'll get into all of that after the break. ." along with support, chantix is proven to help you quit.

12:31 am
i'll pass. welcome back. i'm cyril vanier. let's look at your headlines this hour. u.s. president donald trump making waves ahead of his trip to great britain. in an interview with the sunday time he said the u.k. should not pay the $50 billion price tag to leave the european union. he praised the brexit party leader nigel farage. meanwhile london's mayor and lashing out against the president in a new scathing op-ed calling him one of the most egregious examples of a growing global threat. president trump said white house lawyer emmitt flood will be leaving his post. he also represented former presidents bill clinton during his impeachment process in the 1990s. the city of virginia beach
12:32 am
will hold a memorial service on thursday for the 12 people killed in friday's mass shooting. all but one were city employees. four other victims remain hospitalized, three of them in critical condition. a police officer injured in the shootout with the gunman has been thankfully released from the hospital and is said to be doing well. also israel says it it has hit several syrian targets including artillery and air defense batteries. its military says this video shows the strikes. syria says its air defense has blocked some israeli rockets but says three soldiers were killed in another strike. the exchange started when israel says rockets were fired from syrian territory towards the golan heights. lately in the u.s. there has been a flood of new state laws that restrict abortion rights even though abortion is legal in the country. that was confirmed by the landmark supreme court decision roe v. wade.
12:33 am
in 1973 the court ruled it's unconstitutional for individual states to overrule abortions. they can, however, regulate abortions during the second and third trimesters. the court came to that conclusion based on the woman's constitutional right to privacy. all right, so why is all of this coming up now? state lawmakers are hoping that their laws will be challenged and that the supreme court will end up taking up the issue again. now gnat the court's majority conservative they see it as an opportunity to chip away at and perhaps even overturn roe v. wade. in the past few months several states have passed so-called heartbeat bills. those bills ban abortions after a fetal heartbeat can be detected which can be as early as six weeks, that is before many women even know they're pregnant. georgia, alabama, louisiana, missouri all passed strict bills.
12:34 am
some of which make no exception even in cases of rape or incest. other states have introduced legislation that's been stalled or rejected. and states like new york and vermont have gone the other way, passing legislation to protect abortion rights. on friday a judge ruled that missouri's last abortion clinic can stay open at least until a new hearing next week. the clinic was just hours away from being forced to close. alexandria field explains. >> reporter: a temporary victory for planned parenthood in st. louis, missouri. a judge has ruled the clinic can continue to perform abortions at least for a few more days. the matter will be taken up again in court june 4th. plan parenthood's license was set to expire at the end of the day on friday. the state had not agreed to renew that license. planned parenthood had said it was owar on abortion, essentially saying the process had become politicized and the
12:35 am
state was trying to regulate abortion out of existence. the health department said the clinic had numerous violations and that there was an ongoing investigation and that's why the license wasn't being renewed. but planned parenthood went to court asking for a judge to intervene and asking them to continue abortions at this, the only abortion clinic in the entire state of missouri. so for now a judge has ruled planned parenthood can continue to do that but the court battle will continue. why is this important? missouri is just one of six states, it came within hours of being the only state in the country where there would be no access to abortion whatsoever for the first time in america in more than 40 years. that would have happened without a law having to change, that would have simply happened as a result of this battle over an annual license. in missouri, alexandra field, cnn. democrat led states such as
12:36 am
illinois and nevada are expanding theirs. this week illinois' governor said he'd sign a bill that grants women the fundamental right to have an abortion. it repeals an earlier law that penalized doctors for performing the procedure and expands access to insurance. and nevada's governor signed the trust nevada women act. it also removes the requirements for doctors to tell women about the, quote, emotional implications of an abortion. joining me to discuss this, michael, an assistant professor at catholic university of america, an anti-abortion supporter and also joining me andrea young, the executive director of the aclu, the georgia chapter of the american civil lishlts unioberties unionu both for joining us. maybe we start on strategy. michael, the strategy of republican states is to put themselves basically in blatant
12:37 am
conflict with the supreme court. is that a good way to put it? >> well, i think when you look at the legislation that's been passed in alabama and georgia, it has been the intent of state legislators in those states to try to pass the law that would pose a challenge to the roe v. wade decision. now, we can't tell with certainty what cases the supreme court will hear or how they'll hear any vej case, but i think they show in conservative states pro-lifers aren't really content at the margin. they support laws that provide solid substantial protection for unborn children. and i think supreme court decisions are sometimes affected by opinion. i think it's a good strategy for pro-lifers. >> okay, since you mentioned public opinion let's bring up a recent poll. we have a cbs poll from ten days ago. it shows pretty unequivocally two thirds of americans are in favor of keeping roe v. wade,
12:38 am
that is the lands mark supreme court decision that legalized abortion in the united states. 67% of want to keep it. michael, does that give you pause? >> well, polls about abortions are fickle. when i look at these polls i remember two things. first a high percentage of americans don't even know roe v. wade dealt with abortion. people think it dealt with segregation or another issue -- >> i think they know. >> there's not a lot but there's a significant number of respondents who don't realize roe v. wade is an abortion case. they don't realize for all intents and purposes is abortion -- these common sense protective laws do enjoy support. so again i don't think these polls really give people the full implication of what the roe
12:39 am
v. wade decision did. >> well, the data in georgia are even higher. a recent poll also showed that 70% of georgians support roe v. wade. these laws are passing because also of tremendous gerrymandering and voter suppression that's been going on in the southern states. in georgia in particular we've spent eight years fighting voter suppression. the law in georgia only passed the house by two votes. so these are not -- these are not popular measures. people have taken to the streets out of concern for this. they're appalled that a president that has stood for nearly 50 years would be so blatantly ignored by elected officials who are sporn to uphold the constitution. and we are -- this law has not taken effect in georgia yet, and the aclu is committed to making
12:40 am
sure it will not take effect. >> you're saying that the majority of public opinion in georgia, by your reckoning, is not represented by the georgian state legislator. >> no. >> just because how politics works in this country and gerrymandering. >> and intense voter suppression that makes it more difficult for younger people, for people of color, for new residents of the state, new americans to be registered and cast their ballots. >> do you think roe v. wade, andrea, is on shaky legal ground? because if the strategy of republican states is to push this to the supreme court and to force the supreme court to take up the abortion question again, they would only overturn their own case if they find that the law behind it is shaky. >> i think the science behind roe v. wade is still sound, and the reliance on the precedent is even stronger today than it was when sandra day o'connor reaffirmed roe in the planned
12:41 am
parenthood case. she talked about how the role of women in society has so changed because of our ability to control our reproduction, to make our own decisions about when and whether to have a family or expand that family, that women rely on that. our economic security, our role in this society as civic leaders, as full leaders in our economic system has very much been influenced by the existence of roe v. wade and our whole way of life now depends on a woman's ability to make these choices for herself without government interference. >> michael, do you see -- do you see the supreme court overturning itself, or do you think roe v. wade is bulletproof and maybe republican states are overextending here? >> i don't think roe v. wade is bulletproof at all. but i will say i think pro-lifers are heartened by the fact brett kavanaugh has been
12:42 am
confirmed to the supreme court. there's enthusiasm, a lot of energy on the pro-life side. we've seen the conference get 1,300 people to attend. we're all very excited. we think we're going to do a lot of good for protecting the unborn. we' will roe v. wade itself be upheld, we can't say. >> and so the idea that these laws are for protecting women, georgia has among the highest maternal mortality rates in the united states, i mean rates that are comparable to developing countries. and where is the focus on that? where is the focus on really making medicare -- medical assistance available? half of our counties don't even
12:43 am
have an ob/gyn, a place for women to get prenatal care. so this idea this is about protecting women is completely belied by the fact of where the focus is. the focus is on controlling womens ability to make their private decisions and not on enhancing maternal health. this bill does damage to maternal health. it does damage to the opportunities that women even who want healthy children have to continue that. we've had obgyn's training in georgia say they will not practice here under these kind of strestricks because they are not supportive of promoting maternal health. >> michael, i just want to hear what you have to answer to that before i wrap this up. >> i think the pro-life movement love them both. i think we see that in quite a lot of countries. poland which has good protective pro-life laws, ireland which up
12:44 am
until recently had very good protective pro-life laws, had very good outcomes for women. so i think these mortality rates are driven by other factors like high poverty rates in these states. >> these potential lives need the decisions of women and when this happens, when women make a decision to expand or have a family is up to women. it is not a government's decision. it is not the decision of someone putting their personal faith, it's the womans faith that should make these decisions, not the faith of other people trying to force their views on how women live their lives. >> all right, andrea and michael, there's so much to say in this conversation. obviously as i said at the very top it's not an easy conversation to have but i thank you both for coming on and having it. the race is onto find a
