shortly after 1 in the morning. the most horrifying moment 1:05 when he started firing shots, killing nine people and wounding 17 people. 32 seconds after he started firing the shots, he is shot himself, killed by police. he started the night by going to two bars. and police tell us what happened after he left this bar. >> the shooter actually comes off the bar and walks right in front of that police cruiser. he's traveling eastbound and you'll see he has the backpack and it's weighed down. there he goes. and we know that he's been firing, then pausing for a second. just past this umbrella is the taco stand on fifth street, that's where our first three facilities occur, one of them his sister who obviously heard the gunfire and you'll see on

the right-hand side the path of the officer approximately. so he's engaging right now. the shooter just went by. >> gary, are they saying whether the murder of his sister was intentional or do they know at this point? >> reporter: so here are some of the key things we've learned, they do not know if he intentionally shot at his center and his friend killing her and wounding him. they don't know the answer to that. it certainly is a puzzle. another thing we've learned, this was a deliberate and planned act. this wasn't a spur of the moment thing. he was in two bars in the street, he came with his sister and friend, but he then ditched them and walking across the street went into a parking lot, he then changed, the camera shows that he changed in the car into a hosweatshirt.

and he passed a police car while he was walking down the street to get this stuff and came up the street and started firing. that's clear. one other thing we don't know at this point and this is really important, anderson, we don't know what the motive was. we know from the investigation that police have done, that this man liked violence they say, quote, he was obsessed with violence but they don't know why he came here and when he came here and why it was chosen to be here at this time. >> the dayton police have been very up front about response times and things like that. obviously, they're being greatly praised not only for their quick response and also for their transparency. i'm wondering what the latest is from el paso, because there's a lot we don't know about the time line, the police response. we know the police officer arrived six minutes after the first calls were received. but we don't know when three officers were there, we don't know if they went in and how the killer was able to get in a

vehicle and drive away. >> reporter: right. el paso has not released any video like the one we saw here in dayton. not nearly as much information. this accused killer, he wasn't shot, he turned himself in. one thing we have heard that over the past several months, there's been a lot of complaints in the city of el paso that the police force isn't large enough. they said they needed about 20% more police officers. i talked to a police officer on the phone in el paso, he told me that's a problem. but he would not say -- he could he could not say, he didn't know if it affected that day when police got to the scene or if it affected the investigation. we just don't know at this point. we may learn. we know there's through many people, the police and people who live in the city of el paso, a shortage of police in that

city. >> congressman tim ryan joins me now. he's criticized the president's response to the massacres. there is silence from senate republicans on this. you could argue mitch mcconnell is e essentially trying to slow walk this. the president is tweeting conspiracy theories about jeffrey epstein. do you think that's what republicans are trying to do? >> no question. this has been the strategy for the 17 years i've been in congress and long before that. slow walk it, let's have a conversation about it, a conversation about something else. the president says the same thing and nothing happens. and the news cycle changes. i think it's different this time. the american people are fed up. moms demand action, for example, is one group that is totally fed up. there's going to be rallies this

saturday across the country. they're not giving up. i'm not giving up and i think what happened, anderson, two things, one is, it's been an accumulation over time. people say, what's different now? we went to bed with el paso and the first alert we got on our phones in the morning was dayton. and i think that lit a fire in the country. and when i was in dayton, we stayed a couple hours after the vigil. i had more republicans come up to me and say, congressman, get our party on line. i don't know what they're doing on this. this has got to stop. when you start seeing republicans move like that on the ground, you know -- >> just look -- just to -- you know, argue the counter on that, that's what people said after parkland and there were demonstrations across the country and you saw kids mobilize on this issue and the president talked about the same things he's talking about to your point. i think back then he was talking about even raising the age of someone being able to buy a long

gun. and then that just disappears and now he's talking about meaningful background checks. we don't know what that means. >> if it doesn't happen, there will be consequences at the ballot box. >> you think this is going to -- traditionally while this is outraged people, it's not an issue that was top of the ballot for many people. >> yeah. i think parents, kids are afraid to go to school. i'm hearing that from a lot of people i know. they're afraid to go out. i think the video from times square when the motorcycle backfired multiple times and people went fleeing, i think that is the state of anxiety in the united states today. and inaction is not acceptable. and so the president could ignore this at his peril, republicans can ignore it at their peril. the suburbs are moving away from trump electorally because of his behavior, because of his actions, because of his incompetence and you throw this into the mix, a bunch of moms

who are upset that their kids can't be safe in schools, and kids that are upset about it, i think it's going to move the needle in the election. >> there are a number of folks i've talked to who believe the nra has all of these internal problems, there's in-fighting, budgetary issues. do you believe they are still a power to be reckon with that can basically squash this? >> i think their power is dm diminished because of their internal and external problems. but the anti groups are stronger than they were than five years ago. when you see rallies all over the country, every town, sandy hook, it is now built itself into its own machine that can combat the nra. and trump is alienating these same voters on a variety of other issues, the way he behaves, tweets, this and that,

and inaction. and they think the american people are stupid. they think they can slow walk this thing. >> ohio is obviously an important state. if the economy -- if there's not a recession and the economy continues as it has been and, you know, trump has much to take credit for and certainly he will take credit for that and much more he shouldn't take credit for, is that what this election is going to boil down to? >> i think economic s is going o be a huge issue. about 75% of the country are still living paycheck to paycheck. and we lost a general motors facility in the last two years and all of the suppliers and people can't get ahead. i think trump is making the same

mistake that others made, the economy is going well, let's keep it going. most people were going, it's not going well for me. i can't keep my head above water and they voted for trump. trump, of course he's going to say how great the economy is going. it's not going well for people. people are still struggling, the middle class is still eroded, health care costs are eating up a vast majority of people's income. if trump runs down that -- >> it's amazing that two years in, whatever, there's no health care plan from the republican -- for all of the talk of trump during the campaign about it's going to be done simultaneously. it's just -- >> everything he said during the campaign was a lie. he said he was going to raise taxes on the rich, he cut taxes on the rich. he said he was going to do a infrastructure bill, nothing.

why do you have plans to cut 20 million people from their health care which includes mental health coverage. we got to go in another direction. the country has got to heal. we're divided right now. when you hear slogans like america love it or leave it. we heard that during the vietnam war, people are like, i'm done. >> we have culture wars that were being used against immigrants at the turn of the century. it's the definition of a racist sentiment, telling people who are different -- >> it's not something on a bar stool saying it, it's the president of the united states. so we're looking for change. i've been saying it's not about left or right, it's about new and better and we've got to get past this left, right divide in the country or we're not going to be able to move forward, we're not going to be able to do guns, income inequality, or anything else.

if they want new and better and break this divide, i'm offering big solutions to try to solve those problems. >> appreciate it. thank you very much. the rise of elizabeth warren in iowa, we're going to see how her debate performances have impacted her campaign. and later straw dogs, the president using an issue he can to divide and conquer. we'll explain why plastic straws have become a part of his re-election attempts. have a clear p to cover the essentials in retirement, as well as all the things you want to do. because when you're ready for what comes next, the only direction is forward. we're oscar mayer deli fresh your very first sandwich,m... your mammoth masterpiece. and...whatever this was. because we make our meat with the good of the deli and no artificial preservatives. make every sandwich count with oscar mayer deli fresh.

debates and before that, it was the president telling four congresswomen to go back to where they came from. the issues don't shy away from, the president embraces them. it's the topic of a new story here. from straws to wind turbines, trump is amplifying public tensions by seizing on divisive topics to energize his base. joining me now to talk about that, "washington post" white house reporter who shares the by line on that article also with us is political consultant stuart stevens. you make the point that other political figures have leveraged flash points too. no one really has done it on this scale before and so kind of

nakedly. usually it might be, you know, some commercial that popped up from some organization that insinuated things. this is the president allowing chants of "send her back" to fester. >> that's exactly right, anderson. this president is using these issues as the center piece of his campaign. it's not just sort of a side issue. it's not something to add to a broad policy agenda that this president has. this is the agenda, cultural issues, trying to paint the democrats as extreme on all of these issues and try to galvanize his base. he realizes in 2016, he won by putting together a coalition of people who are very, very excited to vote for him, but also people who didn't like hillary clinton and didn't like hillary clinton because the president spent so much time trying to drive up her negative and is paint her as someone who's corrupt with the nickname of crooked hillary. the president is trying to use those same types of issues to

gal vinnize the people who really like him while also trying to paint the democrats as extremely far to the left so people who are on the fence about the president would back away from thinking about voting for any democrat and maybe hold their nose and vote for him again. that's the strategy we're seeing. >> he's trying to make the democratic party party be represented by the four women he went after. is this prying us apart into groups, does that work? >> if you look at the last election, trump got 46.1% and was able to win. romney lost with 42%. if trump got every vote that he got last time, would that be enough to win? and i would argue probably not, unless there's some strong element of a third party that pulls from center left, 46.1, isn't going to get you to glory.

i think the key for the democratic party i think is turnout and for the first time in 20 years, african-american turnout decreased in 2016. and i think if we got together, democrats got together and tried to come up with a plan to generate more enthusiasm for african-american and nonwhite voters, it would be difficult to come up with anything better than what donald trump is doing. he's absolutely mobilizing these voters. he asked in the campaign, what do you have to lose and he seems dedicating to proving it every day. >> it does seem like the trump campaign is happy to seize on the president's more divisive moments, even going as far as to develop marketing strategies around them. it's not like they're running from him. >> yeah, that's exactly right. if you look at this straw campaign, they realize that the fact that there are cities and companies that use paper straws to try to protect the environment is something his voters and even some democrats are not happy about. they're leaning into this and trying to use it not only to raise money but to paint the

democrats who are going against them as someone who would export some of these policies and take them all the way across the country. they're leaning into some of this. there are issues where they feel a little bit less comfortable where the president enters some of these divides like race and talks about things like "send her back" that they should go back to their countries. they're not as adept in trying to figure out how to package that issue, but there are some issues where they feel like they're able to take a message on a cultural issue and focus on how to export that to the entire country. >> the idea that you can make buying a plastic straw a patriotic issue is a sign of the times. when you look at how the president is courting voters, it seems like he's employing a lot of the same tactics that he did in 2016? >> sure. sure, he is. you know, i think there's a trap

that we fall into trying to attribute some great strategy what donald trump does. because you may have to come to the fact that he may be an idiot. they didn't focus group this, ultimately politics is about addition and not subtraction. but donald trump is a racist and so eventually you're going to see this side of him. and it keeps coming out and coming out. if you're inside that trump campaign, he's very frustrating to you because they're smart, they got really good people over there working for him. they're going to put together a better campaign and they don't want to be the people out there trying to defend a lot of what trump does. and stuff like straws, it's just -- that is -- it's a great con to be able to get people to give money to a billionaire, but to get people to give money to protect paper straws may be the ultimate con. >> yeah. or to go against paper straws in this case. yeah, talk about paper tigers.

two dozen candidates paraded through iowa this weekend. elizabeth warren drawing some of the largest crowds. a poll released last week points to a big surge to her. she's in second place in the state behind biden with sanders slipping from april. jeff zeleny is in iowa taking a look at warren's ground game. >> hello, iowa state fair. >> elizabeth warren is making a big splash in iowa. but beyond the teeming crowds, her campaign is building something more impressive to many democrats here, a ground organization with a person-to-person network growing to the day in backyards like

this. >> i want to say a very special thank you to drew and carol. where are you? >> drew and carol have been following the 2020 campaign closely, but not this closely until one of warren's organizizers reached out and asked if they would host the senator. >> it was awesome to have her here. the neighbors, everybody was excited that she was here. >> do you plan to volunteer for her at all? >> yeah. i think we would entertain the idea. i support her enough to do that. >> across town, kari is a volunteer in warren's army. she hosts events in her living room where he painted a campaign logo. >> i felt like, here's a place where i can feel like i'm making a difference. >> how many hours a week do you think you spend trying to elect elizabeth warren? >> me? >> yeah. >> probably more than most people. probably 12 or 14 hours a week just doing different things. >> the warren campaign started building an iowa operation before any of its rivals with

eight field offices now open and more to come. the campaign has held organizing events in all 99 counties. >> is there a chance that you might be interested in helping us out. >> inside the field office, volunteers made calls and plans for future events. emily is a senior adviser for warren. >> we built the best grassroots in iowa. >> in my experience doing the iowa caucus, you need to be here for a year. it's going to take time. and the interesting thing about this campaign and i don't think it's unlike the obama campaign, there's a focus on building a community of supporters. >> of course so much has changed since 2007 when barack obama had his rise here in iowa. social media in its infancy then is a critical tool in organizing

campaigns. elizabeth warren first on the ground here. others may be catching up. pete buttigieg, kamala harris, joe biden all investing time and money in organizing their campaigns here. anderson? >> jeff zeleny reporting. i want to bring in former clinton campaign manager who serves as the president of a house democratic superpac. and cnn political commentator. you helped senator clinton when the iowa caucuses in 2016. what is the most important thing to keep in mind right now as the candidates are working that stage? >> you heard a lot of it just on the segment before this. you know, iowa is about two things, it's first of all building that universe of supporters that you turn out to those caucuses, but there's what's happens in that caucus room. the iowa caucuses are not a popular vote.

tough physically get people to stand with your candidate group and then you're allocated a certain number of delegates based on that. this year a big change is that some people can decide to caucus early in a certain number of delegates will be allocated there. so every human being that's coming -- that's showing up is strategically really important and training, motivation, commitment, loyalty, all of these things matter so much and that really comes down to the relationship that the campaign has built with them. the number of organizers you have, how talented they are, how they've nurtured those relationships, all these things matter so much in a way that they just don't in a big primary. >> i know you echoed that. you said you don't win iowa through a campaign commercial or by being around for a long time. elizabeth warren has gone out of her way to reach voters and go

to all of those town halls with voters. but has vice president biden -- what is his ground game like? >> well, he's a little later, surprisingly into the iowa game this cycle, it seems. elizabeth warren did something very smart which was, she not only visited iowa quite a few times, but she's also built this movement army. it's not just about the candidate appearing, it's also about creating, you know, a volunteer base and a base of people who are going to be your ambassadors when you're not in the states. so, biden, there's a lot of affection for him in the state. if you look at the polls, there is still a belief across the state that he is the one who's the most electable. that's a good base to start on, but he needs to be doing more organizing on the ground, needs to open more campaign offices and really needs to be more present, not just him as a

candidate, but with more volunte volunteer. he needs to call the activists. that's something that needs to pick up from his side. there's certainly time to do that. >> if you're advising the warren team right now, how do you answer the question on so many democrats minds which is electability and who can beat president trump? >> yeah, this is a concern that a lot of voters are stating. i think sometimes we're overanalyzing that and not thinking enough about momentum. iowa and new hampshire matter so much and we can talk about how the delegates are really in another states, but the issue is that supertuesday comes so fast. by the time you get through that, over 40% of the delegates in this contest are allocated. i think it's over 60% by mid-march. if you're not succeeding in iowa and new hampshire, you know, you can be electable in conventional theories, but you can fall behind.

and we saw that in the 2008 how hillary's numbers moved so quickly in those later states purely based on how president -- later president obama did in iowa. >> yeah. and obviously iowa hasn't been the easiest state for biden. >> that's true. you know, i think there are a lot of lessons to take from the past race that is some of which robbie mentioned. the electability argument which obviously biden is holding solid on is one where back in 2008, hillary clinton was ahead of barack obama by 30 or 40 points on the electability argument. i didn't switch back to have -- see barack obama as the most electable until around the march super tuesday timeline. it doesn't necessarily lead to where voters are going to go on caucus day and as robbie touched on in the beginning, you need

people to be dedicated, people who are going to be volunteering for 10, 15 hours a week. caucuses are hard. >> like that lady who was hosting stuff in her room and painted that thing on the floor. >> exactly. >> she's going to be fighting for elizabeth warren on caucus night. and that's the kind of people you need on your side. >> thank you so much. new fallout tonight after jeffrey epstein's apparent suicide. changes at the jail, plus a new report on epstein's disturbing views, sickening views of sex and rape of minors. ♪ ♪ applebee's handcrafted burgers now with endless fries starting at $7.99.

shakeup is under way at the federal jail where jeffrey epstein apparently took his own life. he was awaiting trial on new sex trafficking charges. the warden is being reassigned. two employees are being put on administrative leave we're told. some of epstein's disgusting views are being revealed for the first time. stewart now reports and i quote, epstein said that criminalizing sex with teenage girls was a cultural abhoruation. he pointed out that

homosexuality had been considered a crime and was still punishable by death around the world. >> it ended with sexual abuse and intercourse and then a pat on the back. you've done a really good job. like, thank you very much. and here's $200. >> virginia was just 16 when he says she was recruited to give jeffrey epstein massages, now she fears epstein's secrets died with him. through her attorney, she shared with cnn her frustration that epstein will never answer for his conduct. we've worked so hard to get here, and he stole that from us too. her lawyer represents at least eight clients. he says all of them hoped epstein's trial would provide vindication and closure, but epstein's death has enabled him to escape, having to confront his victims in court. before he was investigated for

child sexual abuse and trafficking underage women, he was a hedge fund manager. he worked on wall street for years at bear stearns before opening his own investment firm. back in 2006, the fbi began investigating his alleged activities with young girls who today are in their 20s and 30s. some spoke to the miami her radic herald. he would masturbate while he stared at us, touched us. >> his appetite was insatiable. >> dozens of them, all with similar stories of sexual abuse, even down to the details of what epstein's genitals looked like. here's where much of the alleged abuse took place. according to documents, as far back as 2001, it's believed epstein began luring underage girls here with the help of those who worked with him. most ranged in ages from 13 to

16. they'd never before seen the exclusive palm beach island. >> the training started immediately. everything down to how to be quiet, give jeffrey what he wants and, you know, before you know it, i'm being lent out to politicians and academics. >> years later in a 2014 court document, one of the women claimed she had been an underage sex slave to epstein claiming he forced her to have sex with some of his powerful friends, including prince andrew, the duke of york. buckingham palace has denied the accusations. florida attorney represents one of epstein's victims who has not been identified publicly. >> she went into the massage room and was convinced to give mr. epstein a nude massage at the time that he was being given a massage by her, he reached out and he would touch her and feel

her in various areas of her body. >> what is your client's reaction to his death? >> i think there's a mixture of satisfaction that this person can never perpetrate a crime again, knowing he's gone forever. and secondarily, she's been robbed, i think, of true justice. so there's a level of frustration with his suicide, apparent suicide, you know, they've been robbed again of that chance to face their accusers in open court. >> court documents say epstein often ran with the rich and powerful. donald trump, bill clinton, and his two high-profile defense attorneys, ken starr. new york magazine quoted trump saying this about epstein. he's a lot of fun to be with. it's been said he likes beautiful women as much as i do. that same woman who accused prince andrew claimed in that court filing from 2014 that

epstein required her to have sexual relations with another man while she was aboard his private plane. >> she said i had sex with her on jeffrey epstein's airplanes. i never met this woman. i never touched her. i was never massaged by her. >> more than a decade ago, federal investigates had identified at least 36 girls and were still building their case when suddenly in 2008, epstein made a sweetheart deal. that deal allowed him to plead guilty to a lesser charge. he had to register as a sex offender and serve 13 months in a county jail, but it shut down the fbi's investigation. the deal also granted immunity to his co-conspirators. it was signed off by alexander

acosta. acosta resigns last month, facing growing scrutiny of his handling of the epstein deal. if the original plea deal goes away in u light of his death, his co-conspirators may be in trouble. >> do your clients still hope to gain justice from the co-conspirators. >> they should be held accountable. in taking these underage women and abuseling thing them in thet he did without people around him that allowed it to occur. >> his client wants to know why he was no longer on suicide watch. >> someone failed. someone failed when it comes to bringing this man to justice and allowing this to occur. either he should have been on

suicide watch and this would have been prevented or alternatively, why would they ever make the decision to take him off suicide watch or finally someone was paid intentionally to look the other way. >> you're not sold on the fact that this was indeed a suicide? >> not yet. not until a full investigation is undertaken. all of those jailers are interviewed, all of their bank accounts are looked at. i would not be surprised if someone within that jail has an off-shore bank account somewhere that just got a lot larger. >> it sounds like his victims and their attorneys have a lot of questions about what really happened here regarding epstein's death. >> so many questions, anderson. i spoke with three lawyers who all represent epstein's victims and they all want an investigation by the department of justice. one of those lawyers, actually, deposed epstein twice during the originalal case and he described

him this way, snarky, arrogant and he blamed everything on these young women. for him in particular, he has real questions about someone like that who didn't show any remorse, would they really harm themselves. that's what we wants to know. we have learned here at cnn that there were budget cuts at that jail facility, many of these guards were working overtime. it's unclear what really happened, but certainly these lawyers and the victims have a lot of questions. but the bottom line is, these women want justice, they say this is not over. they plan to sue the estate, and they plan to sue his co-conspirators at well. justice is their priority. >> there was chaos in one of the world's busiest airports. we'll tell you what sparked the confrontation next. ♪ ♪

hong kong turning violent. thousands of prodemocracy protestors flooded the busy international airport. paralyzing it for a second day. as the growing tension played out on live tv. police moved in carrying shields and wearing body armor. pushing the crowd back. at times it was hard to tell who sided with whom. we were there as this group turned on a man they suspected of being a chinese agent. some tried to protect him. as others kicked him. medics took the injured man away. he has since been identified as a reporter for the chinese news out let. others blocked passengers from reaching their planes. forcing the cancellation of hundreds of flights and stranding thousands of passengers. >> we can avoid this.

we fight for our final goal. that is is freedom. >> hong kongs leader appointed by the chinese government admits she's losing control. >> hong kong society is not safe or stable. the rioters pushed hong kong to the brink of no return. >> the protests began peacefully two months ago. as millions of demonstrators took to the streets to oppose a proposed extradition law with mainland china. some hard liners who don't want this former british colony to be controlled by communist china has grown increasingly violent. clashing week after week with police. at times leading to show downs with tear gas and night sticks. a protestors were spoiling for a fight. now they've got one. tonight the central government in china is sending increasingly

ominous warnings. showing off security forces close to hong kong. what's not clear is if china will use that force to quash the dissent. or protestors will back down. president trump tweeted about intelligence reports that china is moving troops to the border and appealed for calm. this is the worst political crisis this city has seen in decades. >> what's happening now? >> it's striking. within hours of practically seeing the protestors get close to lynching that reporter, the airport here is back up and running. they covered over the spray painted graffiti and cleaned up. and put this new measures to try to stop protestors if they show up again in large numbers from blocking passengers from trying to fly out.

as they have done. the bigger request is about long term stability in the city. the government shows no signs of compromising. and demonstrators are more radical and desperate and violent than ever. and it just seems like this city is more polarized and divided than i have ever seen it. >> be careful. here at home update on a story that's tugged at hearts nationwide. you remember this girl seen sobbing for her dad after he was stripped away from her in the ice raids. her family was desperate to find him. and now he's been found. where he is. that's next. i can't believe it. that sophie opened up a wormhole through time?
