1:00 am
hello and welcome to our viewers joining us here in the united states and all around the world. you are watching "cnn newsroom" and i'm rosemary church. just ahead the white house in full on damage control cleaning out the u.s. donald trump's coronavirus comments as he fumes about the smaller than expected crowd in tulsa. >> i hope it will remember him as a one-term president. >> mr. trump's former national security advisor says he's naive and dangerous.
1:01 am
working with him was like living in a pinball machine. as black lives matter rallies continue across america, startling new statistics about racism in the u.k. a cnn exclusive report. good to have you with us. the white house is weathering storms of controversy from the coronavirus from former officials and from the president himself. members of the trump administration say they are preparing for a second wave of coronavirus infections in the fall despite the president's comments in tulsa on saturday that he asked his team to slow down covid-19 testing, staffers now say mr. trump was obviously kidding but health experts aren't laughing.
1:02 am
nearly 120,000 americans have died from the virus and more than 20 states are seeing spikes of new infections. but the president is fuming about something else. an advisor tells cnn that mr. trump is very upset about the low turnout at his campaign rally on saturday. the tulsa fire marshall says just 6200 people showed up way below expectations and harsh words from the former u.s. national security advisor, john bolton says mr. trump is unfit to lead the country. and it should be a one-term presidency for his former boss. well, in the midst of all of this, the president is planning to hold another rally, this one in the u.s. state of arizona where the number of coronavirus cases has nearly doubled in the past two weeks. brian nobles has our report. >> reporter: after that disappointing showing at his rally in tulsa over the weekend, president trump is turning his focus west.
1:03 am
he's going to come here to arizona on tuesday. he's got two big events planned on that day. first, he's going to head to the southern border and talk about the wall that he has worked on over the course of his administration and the progress that's being made there. then he's going to come here to phoenix that night and speak to a group of young trump supporters, students for trump. there's already controversy for that visit. here in phoenix the city council and the governor has required people to wear a mask. the mayor of phoenix says she hopes everyone who goes tho that rally is wearing a mask, and that includes president trump. president trump up until this point has rarely been seen in a mask and he's also made a point about how wearing a mask is not all that important in terms of battling the coronavirus. the mayor did tell cnn she did not expect the city to cite
1:04 am
president trump but she hopes he leads by example. we'll see how enthusiastic this crowd is and if they were able to bring in the big number to this rally in phoenix. it's not a campaign rally, it's put on by a third party group but a group with enthusiastic support for trump. well, the white house is preparing for the possibility of a second wave of coronavirus infections to spike in just a few months. it should be noted medical and scientific experts say the u.s. is not yet out of the first wave of the virus and cases are, in fact, rising in more than 20 states. the white house is in damage control mode after the president made a remark during his rally saturday about slowing down virus testing in the u.s. cnn's kristin holmes reports. as the country nears that 120,000 deaths from coronavirus,
1:05 am
president trump's administration spent sunday defending his remarks when the president said on saturday night that he asked his people to slow down testing that there wouldn't be more cases. on saturday a senior administration official told cnn that the president was, quote, obviously kidding. on sunday peter navorro doubled down on the idea it was joking. >> it was tongue in cheek. >> i don't know. >> it was tongue in cheek. >> he has said similar things for months. >> joe, we've got -- >> he has said similar things for months. >> we have over 30 million people unemployed and we've seen over 100,000 people dye because of the china wuhan virus. let's talk about some serious issues, jake. i don't want to go there. i'll break a little news for you -- >> i think testing is a very serious issue. >> i work on it every day. >> you're the one that said the -- >> come on, it was a light
1:06 am
moment. >> whether or not it was a joke, we will point out to our viewers that this is not the first time the white house has used this defense that president trump has said something that is extremely controversial, but on top of that, this is getting a lot of backlash, particularly from president trump's advisers who had said this was the case from the beginning. president trump cares more about his appearance, which would mean less cases, than he did about the american health, which would mean more tests which could possibly lead to more cases but of course catching the disease before it was fatal. so it's no surprise that we're already hearing that democrats, that joe biden's campaign are really latching on to this, they're putting this out there. they want it to be on the air waives as part of their narrative as they head towards november. kristin holmes, cnn, the white house. joining me now is dr. amy compton phillips. she is a cnn analyst.
1:07 am
always good to talk to you. >> thanks for having me, rosemary. >> so the world health organization is reporting the largest single day increase in global coronavirus cases by its count while in the u.s. the death toll approaching 120,000 with 23 states seeing covid-19 cases rising and in ten states those cases are surging up 50% or more. what do these numbers signal to you? >> these numbers signal to me that people are getting a little bit complacent, particularly here in the u.s. you know, as i talk about it at work, as we are right now in the sixth mile of a 36 mile marathon and we have to just keep going and doing all the really hard things. we know we have to get back to life. we have to start earning an income. we have to start getting our economy going, but in doing so we have to do it differently than we did in 2019. and people are getting tired of
1:08 am
it. and so it's easy to get lax and revert to our old habits, but when we do that, more and more people will die. so we cannot give up. we have to do both. we have to get the economy started as well as be incredibly cautious and incredibly careful washing hands, wearing masks doing all of those things so we don't send the death rate skyrocketing. >> they have to be a wake-up call, don't they? >> dock torks after the trump campaign boasted about attracting a million people to the president's tulsa rally saturday, it appears only about 6200 turned up. that's according to the tulsa fire department, which is good from a medical perspective but still a worry with only a few of those participants wearing facemasks despite the reduced numbers. what risk could this have posed, do you think to the health of
1:09 am
those who did turn up? >> first of all, let me say that was a really wise decision for 994,000 people to make, to stay home and not go to an indoor rally where people aren't wearing masks and where they're cheering and yelling and the risk of droplet transmission is very large. the people that were there are going to really need to watch themselves. they need to self quarantine. one of the big challenges is the government knew it was a risk and therefore had people sign a waiver saying it wasn't their fault. you know, clearly public health officials knew it was a risk to put people that were yelling in close proximity indoors in an environment where coronavirus cases were on the increase. as you know, six staffers for the rally were diagnosed as having the virus prior to the rally so it was in circulation there. it's going to be a really interesting area to watch over what happens in the next two weeks. >> yeah. of course, there's that two-week
1:10 am
lag period before we actually get an idea, isn't there? doctor, at that same rally president trump said he asked his people to slow down the coronavirus testing. his advisers insist he was just joking there, a defense we've all heard before when the president says anything controversial. what do you say to a president who appears to think if you stop testing for the virus, the problem goes away? and what could be the consequences of an approaching like to? >> history does not look kindly on people who go for wishful thinking over facts and science. think back, fact checkers back in the 1400s had to say, no, really, the earth is round. fact checkers had to say, no, really, the earth does rotate around the sun even though it was not what people wanted to believe. fact checkers in the 2010s had to say, no, really, human produced carbon dioxide is causing global warming.
1:11 am
fact checkers in the future are going to look back and say this president actually did a disservice to the nation by sewing confusion about testing, about contact tracing, about isolation and about masks and history will not be kind. the reason there are 120,000 americans that did not get to celebrate father's day with their family is because our government has failed at making a consistent coherent message to the public available to stay home, stay safe. >> and, doctor, given that, president trump next heads to arizona where cases have nearly doubled in two weeks. his upcoming event in phoenix will again gather lots of people together, this time students. how big a concern is that to you? >> well, my hope is that the students and people in arizona will do what the 994,000 did in oklahoma and make the right decision to keep themselves safe, to be kind to their
1:12 am
neighbors and their family by not bringing home the virus and to stay well, which means staying out of high risk situations unnecessarily. >> dr. amy compton phillips, thank you as always for talking with us. appreciate it so much. >> thank you so much. we are watching a media blitz unfold that seems determined to do one thing, take down the american president. we are less than 24 hours away from a new explosive tell all book from john bolton city hitting the shelves and ahead of that mr. bolton is going all out in interviews. >> i hope that it will remember him as a one-term president who didn't plunge the country irretrieve bring into a downward spiral where we can't recoil from. we can get over one term. two terms i'm more troubled about. that's not all.
1:13 am
in another interview bolton blasted daily life in the white house calling it as being like, quote, living inside a pinball machine. as he goes after mr. trump he also says that his testimony in the biggest push to remove the president, the impeachment trial, wouldn't have made much of a difference. bolton told abc news the democrats were too narrow in the approach but the president definitely lied about his dealings with the ukraine. there's a lot to take in. cnn's vivian salama takes us through more of bolton's claims. >> reporter: john bolton has finally spoken out in his first interview since cnn obtained his book last week telling some of the dynamic and controversy that he witnessed firsthand when he was president trump's national security advisor. some of it is elaborating on what we saw in the book in terms of his personal relationships with certain world leaders, in particular world leaders that
1:14 am
john bolton believed we should treat with skepticism with a little bit of distance. he said the president was constantly looking to strike a deal without really any nuance to understanding the problematic history of those countries as well as some of the issues that would come into play in any kind of negotiation. so he explained a number of different instances with regard to those talks and ultimately he said the president didn't really read a lot of his briefings. he said the intelligence briefings should happen on a daily basis and that wasn't the case. he felt the president wasn't reading much of his briefings at all. the one thing he said the president had enormous interest in was the election. he said he just wished that the president showed that kind of interest on national security matters. here's a look at what he said. >> i think he was so focused on the re-election that longer term considerations fell by the way
1:15 am
side. it was considerable emphasis on the photo opportunity, press reaction to it and little or no focus to what that did to the bargaining situations in the united states. >> are you saying all of what the president did were driven by the election? >> thank you very much, el paso. thank you, very much. >> a lot of people complain he has a short attention span and doesn't focus. i want to say when it comes to re-election his attention span was infinite. >> there you heard john bolton talking about re-election issues and national security. he have wished they would have focused on his briefings. another issue he focused on was the family, jared kushner and
1:16 am
ivanka trump. at one point the president diverted interest to focus on a saudi issue. he focused on a saudi arms deal at that time so he would divert media attention away from another issue, his daughter's personal use of emails at the white house. >> you are watching "cnn newsroom." still to come -- >> don't be talking to my dog, bro. let him go. >> a police officer involved in the arrest of a black man in new york, suspended. we will get you the details of that incident when we come back. plus, authorities in the u.k. are searching for a motive in a deadly hooif knife attack. a new report next.

1:21 am
restraining the man on his stomach in response to what officials have described as disorderly behavior. one of the officers also appears in a cell phone video to have his arm wrapped around the man's neck only releasing his hold after his colleague trumps him to. >> let go, bro. >> the police officer involved was once suspended without pay. this comes days after they made the use of choke holds a criminal offense. there are calls for an atlanta area district attorney to be replaced following the controversial police shooting of rayshard brooks. da paul howard charged an atlanta officer with 11 crimes in the case including felony murder. doug collins, a republican, claims the charges are politically motivated. all this as the brooks family prepares to lay 27-year-old rayshard to rest this week. the funeral is set for tuesday

1:23 am
what happened. >> the aftermath of sudden shocking horror. a terror attack. police and paramedics try to save lives among people minutes earlier enjoying the only social gathering allowed during the pandemic, outdoors. three would die, several others injur injured, several others needing critical care. an eye witness says he saw a lone attacker come into the park, shout something unintelligible, then he ran over to a group stabbing some in the threat and arms. soon after police surrounded this building evacuating terrified residents. >> i went outside, saw something was going on. he said it was nothing to worry about but he had a big gun in his hand. >> reporter: they captured the attacker, a 25-year-old lib yal
1:24 am
national. investigation into his motives continue. >> i'm not in a position to talk about the man who's been arrested or give any further details about the case as this is a live counterterrorism investigation. >> four officials known, the concern now a possible community backlash. >> people will feel uncertain, afraid, indeed many feel angry. as a council we have an important thing to do, seek to provide reassurance as we move forward. >> reporter: police say people will see more officers on the streets. boris johnson appearing to indicate not for the first time warning signs of terror trouble when missed. >> if there are lessons to be learned, if there are changes that need to be made to our legal system to stop such events
1:25 am
happening again, we will not hesitate to take that action. >> reporter: the lesson for many people here coming out of lockdown, and only allowed to meet friends outdoors is how safe will they be. >> some are beginning to learn details of new victims. he was the head of a history, politics and governance department. that school, friends and family described him as a kind man, gentle man, some who were talented and inspirational to the students, who wanted to teach them about the school and the world worked. we're learning more about the victims. >> that is heartbreaking, nic robertson bringing us the details. many thanks to you. you are watching "cnn newsroom." we'll be right back.

silence is violence. no justice no peace. some of the slogans chanted by hundreds of protesters who marched through london this weekend in support of the black lives matter movement that has swept the globe. now this is the fourth consecutive weekend of anti-racism protests in the u.k. extensive polling conducted by cnn in england, scotland and wales on the issue of racism has uncovered divisions between black and white people in their experience and attitudes towards race. the poll found black people are twice as likely as white people to say there is discrimination
1:30 am
in british policing, media and politics. in this example, twice as many say they have experienced disrespect from police and think the country has not done enough to address racial injustice. 2/3 of black respondents said so. they believe the governing party is institutionally racist. they see the split between black and white respondents over the issues of statues and monuments associated with slave trade and the british empire. 2/3 saying they were offended by the statues compared to 1/3 of the whites published. today is wind rush that in 1948 brought thousands of caribbean families who answered the british government's call to help rebuild a country that was
1:31 am
ravaged by a war. we are live. police brutality and racism in america have sparked protests in other parts of the world as well, including in the u.k. talk to us about how bad and how deep the problem is there and what's being done about it. >> reporter: this movement, of course, has spread from across the atlantic, but brittain has been having its own race wrecking for decades, rosemary. what we found is decades after those first wind rush migrants arrived here, the pictures, the divisions are incredibly stark along racial lines. take a look at this. >> i'm not saying our black lives matter more than you, we're saying our black lives matter, too. >> the arrival of 400 jamaicans
1:32 am
have come to help the moreland. >> reporter: away from the relics of empire and the long abandoned vestiges of colonial rule, what does it mean to be black and british. this is a spoken word artist struggling to make sense of it all through poems like this. >> if we aren't hurt with a knee, i think the greatest trick racism ever played was convincing england it didn't exist. >> reporter: for decades brittain has had its own race reckoning. in the past the spark lass been race brutality, income inequality but underpinning it all a sense many say that to be black and to be british is to feel unwelcome in your own home. the black lives matter movement has crossed the atlantic and awakened uncomfortable conversations. now an exclusive cnn poll has
1:33 am
shown how sharply the nation is divided along race lines. policing, representation, history. it's clear to be black in brittain is almost to live in a different country. five black british friends gained global fame after a picture of them carrying a white man to safety in the middle of a crush of a view owe lint london protest went viral. haled as heroes, but the truth is more complicated. >> we as brothers, sons, fathers have got little trust in the police on saturday that we had to technically go out to do their job for them. >> reporter: our poll found black people are twice as likely as white people to say they have not been treated with respect by police. >> do it for protection by the
1:34 am
police, not at all. >> the police are institutionally racist. there may be individuals in the system that are trying to do a good job, but as a collective, they're racist. >> reporter: what do you think a police officer thinks when he looks at you? >> color. race. color. first thing they notice. that should be the last thing they notice. >> unfortunately threatened. >> reporter: you think the first thing they see you as a black man as a threat? >> it's threat, a fear. >> reporter: it's not just the police. when it comes to other institutions of power, the racial divide is just as stark. black people are significantly more likely than white people to say the party in power, the conservatives, is institutionally racist. the final moments of the toppling of slave trader edward
1:35 am
costine. he provided over a central square in the british city of brist bristol, then protesters took matters into their own hands. you can see the hugely emotional moment when the crowd, white and black, rolls colston's statue to the docks where the human beings he traded were auctioned off. wish, a local musician was there that day. he grew up in the shadow of colton's statue and he watched it topple. >> this is deep in the roots of the education system, in the public sector. >> you wouldn't have a statue of hitler, why would you have a statue of him, you know what i mean? when people were saying you don't want to take away that culture and roots, it's like that's what you've got books for. that's what the library is there for, the internet is there for. you know what i mean?
1:36 am
you don't need a statue for the system to change. the institutions have got to change really. we know they're broken and don't work. >> led by boris johnson used a colognial racist slur to mark afrikaans for what it calls desecration of history. our polling found black people were more than twice as likely to remove the statues as white people and almost three times as likely to say the british empire as a whole was a bad thing. world war ii era british prime minister winston churchill's history is complicated by the legacy of his role in brittain's empire. under his now heavily guarded
1:37 am
statue, we spoke to iva. this is not just about the past, it's about the present. >> i thought why can't a black woman spread her voice to the world. >> 18-year-old ima is one of two organizers of the black lives matter protest. she says she has faced sustained harassment. she said moving from nigeria has been difficult. >> i did get racist, anonymous messages from people around my area and i think that was the first realization that racism is very big probe and i see women and american clutch their handbags and briefcases. our lives matter.
1:38 am
>> reporter: she's not alone in feeling that way. black people are nearly twice as likely as white people to say the u.k. has not done enough to address historic racial injustice. so what do our findings mean for this nation divided? there is a divide between what many black brittains experience and what many white brittains believe that experience to be like. that means so many black activists and black britts have been saying for years is true, that when they speak about racism, so many of their white country men don't believe them and that is something that is going to have to be reckoned with if there is any hope to move together towards a united future. we reached out to the national police chiefs
1:39 am
association, to the london metropolitan police, to the ruling party p of conservatives. none has given us a comment. the overriding emotion was hurt, hurt that they don't feel heard, hurt that they haven't been believed. the silence institutionally is only going to continue to feed that sense of invisibility that black brittains so clearly feel. >> understood. joining us live from london. many thanks for your report. and you're watching "cnn newsroom." still to come, we will take a look at the cultural implications on the country. robinhood believes now is the time to do money.

1:43 am
♪ no i won't back down >> the trump campaign may soon have to back down from using any of tom petty's music in the future. the family of the late rock star has sent a cease and desist notice after the president's campaign played one of petty's songs at a rally over the weekend. as you can see and you just heard, the family of tom petty said he stood firmly against racism and discrimination of any kind and he would never want a song of his to be used for what they call a campaign of hate. cnn has reached out to the trump camp for comment. petty died in 2017 at the age of 66. well, on sunday a noose was found in the garage of nascar driver bubba wallace. this comes just days after the only african-american driver in nascar's top racing series called for a ban on con fed der rate flags at events. nascar says it's outraged by the noose incident and has launched

1:52 am
by police. as a result, black people in the u.k. have less faith in governing and police iing and t are guys as likely to say the u.k. has not done enough to stop historical racial justice. let's bring in darren lewis. he joins us live from london. good to see you. good to have you with us, darren. let's look at the cultural implications of this survey. black people are three times more likely to say black celebrities are treated worse than white media. while half of white people say black celebrities are treetd nowhere near that. what do these numbers tell you,
1:53 am
darren. >> all of the numbers that you're presenting -- that we are presenting as a station, rosemary, i think if you look at that, 18 months ago they compared his own treatment and the treatment of a white teammate and the way that they were both being represented by the media. and he used the administration to close out the fact that he felt black celebrities, black sportsmen were being unfairly maligned in relation to their white counterparts. >> they say far too little is
1:54 am
taught in schools about racial injustice. what do you say about that? >> i think the numbers will go up as people educate themselves. they will do more to see what black children should be learning as part of a curriculum in which this has been instrumental. our children need to find out about one of the black women in the armed forces as well as the rights in the 1960s. there are many black historic figures that should be celebrated and learned about.
1:55 am
they need to learn about that instead of the slave traders whom we want to kmcommemorate b shouldn't be doing in 2020. >> darryn, most white people are oblivious to systemic racism and inequality simply because they don't experience it every single day of their lives or see it but now the abundance of video evidence in the u.s. at least has opened the eyes of so many white people who have been shocked by what the video reveals. really, does it get down to a need to educate white people? because these numbers show they're not going to say this is what's happening because they're not seeing it or experiencing it. >> a lot of white people are choosing to educate themselves. it's incumbent on many black people to continue to use our
1:56 am
