this is cnn breaking news. >> hello and welcome to you, our viewers here in the united states and all around the world. i'm ken brunhuber. this is "cnn newsroom." we start with breaking news out of portland, oregon. one person has been shot and killed near the site of a fierce and violent clash among protesters. police are calling it a homicide, but we have to be clear, we don't know if the killing is linked to the unrest. the shooting comes after a huge caravan filled with supporters of u.s. president donald trump rolled into town earlier on saturday, met by furious counterdemonstrators. for months now, portland has been a flashpoint for protests. our security correspondent josh campbell spoke earlier about what led up to saturday's violence. >> this city has been the focus of so much attention in the united states for well over two

months now. there have been these nightly clashes between protesters and law enforcement officers, both federal and local law enforcement officers, but today it started to take a bit of a different turn in that these protesters aren't just anti-law enforcement, what we actually saw is scontinuing as we speak now is a large group of pro-donald trump protesters who are now also inserted into the mix. earlier this afternoon they had staged hundreds of trump protesters outside of the city of portland, and indicated on social media they were going to be heading downtown and portland police, in fact, put out an alert saying there was a caravan heading downtown, they were asking people to please stay off the streets. and as that caravan arrived, they started clashing with demonstrators. police saying they made a number of arrests, with these clashes between both the pro-trump movement and also those who have been calling for federal law

enforcement to leave the city, calling for racial justice. worth pointing out the city of portland, the overwhelming protesters have been peaceful but there is a faction of protesters and a very volatile situation in portland where you have with groups clashing. there has been a report of one death, police are investigating that as a homicide. they say they were in a downtown area, they heard gunshots, raced to the scene and then found a victim who was deceased. as you mentioned, it is unclear whether this was involved with the protests, whether this was one of the pro-trump people, whether it was one of the counterdemonstrators, but it is already turned very deadly down there. >> "new york times" correspondent mike baker witnessed some of the violence in portland. he described the scene to my colleague natalie allen. >> there was a gathering out in the suburbs of trump supporters and they were going to drive around the outskirts of the

city, but a lot of them decided to come through into downtown where they met a bunch of protesters who were there, wanting to confront them. and sort of during the hours that -- of that happening, there are reports of gunfire, went over to the scene, and the police had blocked it off. there was a man who had been shot in the chest who was being treated at the time. and it appears to have been wearing a patriot prayer hat on his head, patriot prayer is a far right group here in the portland area. >> tell us more about the clashes between these two groups, mike, throughout this evening, and what was the police presence like during this situation? what did they do to try and help defuse this back and forth between the trump supporters and the protesters?

>> yeah, i mean, as some of the supporters were coming and driving into the city, there were protesters that were blocking the street, and the police came and moved them off the street, and then later on, as they -- as some of the protesters went -- some of the trump supporters went downtown, you know, some of the protesters were confronting them there and the police came in, trying to redirect the crowd of -- the right wing crowd to sort of keep the groups away. but at the same time, they're just driving all over downtown. you have trucks going up one street, and down another, in different directions and protesters going all different directions as well. so it became a bit of an unwieldy situation where there wasn't a central location where the clashes were te to a few blocks of portland as we understand it. and it has been 93 days, tomorrow is day 94.

what is the concern going forward here after what we have seen on this night? >> yeah, the protests have really fluctuated a lot inside. when -- before the federal government sends in their forces, beginning of july, you know, the numbers were getting below 200 people that were protesting. and then the federal government came and the numbers grew up to thousands because there were just such outrage about the tactics the government brought. the last few nights, i've been here most of the weeks following the protests, and they come back down to the 200, maybe a little more than 200 some nights, people out. and police had largely kept them under control. they let them go out, protest, sometimes they with light a fire or spray paint buildings, and the police would come in and make a bunch of arrests, and so it seemed to be sort of on a path towards something more calm

and under control. who knows tonight after something like this, i don't know where we're headed here. >> that was "the new york times" mike baker speaking to natalie allen. we'll continue to track the story and we'll bring you the latest updates when we have them. kenosha, wisconsin, is another hot spot of demonstrations against police violence. it has seen days of protests after a black man was shot in the back by a white officer. now, u.s. president donald trump says he'll visit the city tuesday. the white house confirmed that mr. trump plans to meet with law enforcement, and view damage left over after protesters protested the shooting of jacob blake last sunday and no word on whether he'll meet with blake himself. mr. trump hinted that he might go to kenosha before the plans were confirmed. >> this success as you know we were finally able to get the go ahead from the local authorities to send in the national guard. we sent in the national guard,

and within a few minutes of the guard everybody cleared out. it became safe. >> cnn spoke earlier with areva martin, civil rights attorney and cnn legal analyst in los angeles. and she talked about mr. trump's trip to kenosha and what we might expect to hear from him. >> for him, this is an -- this issue isn't about the systemic racism, it is not about police brutality, it is not about the peaceful protesters, but it is about him beating this drum of law and order and trying to paint the peaceful protesters as mobs, trying to incite in some ways violence, invoke fears, and to create this narrative, particularly for suburb an votes that if he's not re-elected, their cities are going to be overrun by looters and people intent upon engaging in violent

activity. >> blake's family led large crowds on a peaceful march in kenosha, saturday afternoon. our sara sidner has more on that, and reaction from blake's father to police union accusations about his son. >> reporter: here in kenosha, that was about 2,000 people who came out in support of jacob blake and jakcob blake's family. we heard from jacob blake's uncle, justin blake, we heard from jacob blake's sister, we heard from jacob blake's father as well, all speaking about a couple of things, one asking for peaceful protests, but, two, telling people they must vote, that that is the next thing after protesting in the streets. we also talked to jacob blake's father about what happened in this case, and what he sees should happen going forward after the police association here in kenosha made allegations against jacob blake, that he was armed, he was fighting with the police, that he had a police

officer in a headlock, and had to be tased. his father reacting saying what he sees certainly did not prove an imminent threat to the officer who ended up shooting him in the back seven times. >> how can you in be imminent danger when the person has nothing in their hands? was what was he, superman? he could see the knife through the walls of the car? the police union means nothing to me. a bunch of cats that pay a bunch of dudes to have a title, a union. they do nothing but support their bad cops. he's a bad cop. didn't take seven shots to find out that. the first shot told you he -- the second one was coming. the third shot told you the fourth one he's trying to kill him. the fifth shot said how many more times you're going to shoot? by the time the seventh shot got there, attempted murder. >> no officer at this point has been charged in this case.

we do know that, of course, there is an investigation under way, the state department of justice is investigating and saying they are going to be doing an impartial investigation. and that the police association does not speak for anyone other than the defense of the officers. they are very adamant and clear in that, that they are the investigating agency in this case. sara sidner, cnn, kenosha. u.s. intelligence has already warned of interference from russia, china, and iran in the upcoming u.s. presidential election. but congress will no longer get in person briefings on the matter from the director of national intelligence john ratcliffe. jeremy diamond has the details. >> reporter: well, on saturday we learned that the office of the director of national intelligence informed congressional leaders that they will no longer be receiving in person briefings on this critical issue of election

security and foreign interference in the 2020 presidential election. of course, this coming 66 days before that presidential election, and as this issue really comes even more so to the forefront, certainly a perplexing decision that is really drawing a ton of condemnation from democrats on capitol hill. first, the president on saturday, he was asked about this decision, why it was made, and here's his answer. >> director ratcliffe brought information into the committee, and the information leaked. whether shifty schiff or somebody else, they leaked the information before it gets in, and what is even worse, they leak the wrong information and he got tired of it. so he wants to do it in a different forum. you have leakers on the committee. >> reporter: the president did not provide any evidence to back up his claims that members of congress leaked information from previous and recent intelligence briefings. and, of course, the president there suggesting on the one hand

there were leaks, while also saying that the information was false. so something there does not add up. but, again, democrats on capitol hill reacting with extreme condemnation here on saturday. the house speaker nancy pelosi and adam schiff,ence committee, this a shocking abdication of the administration's responsibility to brief congress on intelligence matters. let me read you part of the statement, they say this is shameful and coming only weeks before the election, demonstrates that the trump administration is engaged in a politicized effort to withhold election related information from congress and the american people at the precise moment that greater transparency and accountability is required. this keeps both the american people and congress in the dark, when both are in need of the information. now, also, in this statement, they also revealed that the office of the director of national intelligence had actually suggested briefing congress in mid-september on election interference and in

person briefing and then they canceled that briefing. now we have this announcement that they will no longer be briefing congress in person on this matter, instead only providing a written statement of some kind on the latest conclusions of the intelligence community. this is, of course, notable, because we know president trump, he has repeatedly been sensitive about this issue of election interference, specifically as it pertains to russia interfering in the 2016 election, something that the president has never come to fully, fully acknowledge. and, of course, there is this other issue of mail-in ballots, the president recently suggested that mail-in ballots presents an election security risk, that foreign countries might seek to interfere and take advantage of that situation to twist the results of the election. that's a concern that u.s. intelligence officials have repeatedly dismissed in recent weeks. of course, the lack of these in person briefings from members of congress means they won't be able to press those intelligence officials on claims like that by the president.

jeremy diamond, cnn, the white house. president trump's democratic opponent joe biden put out a statement condemning the move, saying this is not how democracy works, but it is how american national security and sovereignty are violated. u.s. military officials say two russian fighter jets made a quote unsafe professional intercept of an american b-52 bomber on friday. the u.s. flight was part of a show of solidarity with nato with flights over 30 countries. it happened over the black sea. american officials say the russian planes crossed multiple times within 100 feet, which is about 30 meters, from the b-52, rocking the bomber with turbulence. the u.s. isn't the only country having a hard time convincing people to follow coronavirus restrictions. protesters gathered around europe to call out the rules of their likely saving thousands of lives. that's just ahead. c'mon! hurry up!

a year to get there. that's according to johns hopkins university, which also counts more than 842,000 global deaths. the most confirmed cases are in the united states. the u.s. is very close to reaching 6 million coronavirus cases and 182,000 people have died. covid-19 restrictions are enflaming new round of protests in europe. measures meant to stop the virus are seen as an attack on freedom by some. now they're embracing conspiracy theories and challenging masks and social distancing. cnn's michael holmes has more. >> reporter: a day to defy science, protesters weary or even skeptical of lockdowns, face coverings and social distancing, crowding together by the thousands in berlin, to say they had enough of the coronavirus infringing on their liberties. the reason for demonstrating is

quite simple, it is about freedom. it was a rallying cry heard around europe, in london, protesters gathered in trafalgar square to demonstrate against covid-19 restrictions. likewise, in zurich, where some people said they turned out because they wanted to condemn politics they say is based on fear and panic. paris too, the center of similar gatherings, but police were on hand to dole out fines to people not covering their faces, which angered some in the crowd. it is for the wearing of masks, one woman says. i don't think it is right that it is compulsory decree. i don't want to have vaccines be compulsory. but in other areas of the world, the spread of the virus too real to dispute. south korean officials say they're running out of hospital beds, with just 4.5% of critical

care beds available in seoul. healthcare facilities are already strained by a strike by 16,000 doctors over reforms in the government healthcare plan. spain is fighting a second fierce wave of the virus, with cases skyrocketing in the past week, government officials announce that drugmaker johnson & johnson will begin phase two trials of a vaccine there next week. as soon as it is approved, umm going to have it one woman says, we must use a lot of protection, as much as possible and as fast as possible. but others aren't so reassured, another woman says i distrust that given the rare and mysterious characteristics of the virus we can have a vaccine so soon. >> you have a face covering. >> reporter: a more practical moment from new zealand prime minister jacinda ardern whose

country is seeing a resurgence of the virus. she made a video of how to make a homemade mask, made mandatory on public transport on monday. michael holmes, cnn. for more on this, i'm joined from england by an associate professor of molecular virology. thank you for joining us. appreciate it. as you heard there, we seem to be seeing more and stronger backlashes to covid restrictions. medical tyranny they call it, we saw germany, england, france, switzerland, they're calling for a return to freedom. what worries you most about this growing backlash? >> major concern right now is that the attention seems to focus on the immediate risk of death from this virus. yes, the numbers suggest that the rate of the virus declined, and quite likely this has got to

do with two things. one, we can try to dampen the damage, but it is not a cure. two, because spread seems to be occurring among the younger population, so that's the early 20s, teenagers, 30s, people who are not -- are not going to be tipped over the edge by the virus and need intensive care. however, there are many, many, many instances worldwide where we have teenagers, 20-year-olds in icu, basically with -- for their own breathing because they have been slowly succumbing to the virus. and there is also data that is now becoming practically difficult to refute that the heart is a major target of this virus, even among those who have had mild disease. there is evidence from tests that are carried out clinically,

in and many studies showed that that heart muscle cells are destroyed by the virus, so the damage is akin to that of a heart attack, not as severe, but very similar. we know very well the heart does not heal. so we are effectively entering a phase where people will be losing the quality of life, in the future, they're not going to die immediately, but they will be sustaining damage that is presently irreparable, and people need to really carefully consider whether or not this is worthwhile with regards to the discomfort, that's what it is, of wearing a mask. >> that's the thing. not as many people are dying, people think they're invincible and not enough people know about those secondary and long lasting effects. so how do you convince skeptics. is it possible to reach people who believe conspiracies over

science? >> sometimes i do wish i had taken a major in psychology in the united states and not in molecular biology. so i would defer that question to the people who are more equipped to answer it. but short of showing them the data and showing them what happens with people from among their own communities, that end up in hospital, or dead, because of this virus, i'm not sure what we can do. >> clearly, you know, people are itching for return to normal. even the government, i mean the uk government is encouraging people to return to work, are work places ready for that? >> i'm not convinced that many workplaces have implemented the kind of protective measures necessary. so there is a very high level discussion of the w.h.o. with regards to the modes of transformation and transmission. the evidence is mounting very strongly, the recommendation is going to change very soon to something like 20 liters per

minute -- sorry, per second, per person in a room. so that's 20 liters -- double pint of milk, 20 of those, being chucked out the window per second per person in a room. that kind of extraction i know of is present in entertainment venues, not the average office. you need that with masks, not without masks. so to assert that we need to return into normal working life, where many companies are able to have efficient and effective working with people working from home is something that we need to reconsider very carefully. the additional risk here is public transport. if we have people who are not going to be masking up, going to the supermarket, and suddenly all this is going to go into public transport and transmission is going to be very strong. i do not wish to be in a

situation where we don't turn around and say i told you so a few weeks down the line or few months down the line. >> a warning that is definitely worth hearing and hopefully some of those skeptics will actually believe it. we appreciate you joining us. thank you so much. >> you're very welcome. there is much more ahead on cnn, including details on the u.s. president's recently announced trip to wisconsin. key swing state being hit by protests. plus, the fight against racism and police brutality is global. massive crowds are expected for a black lives matter protest in london today. that's coming up right after this short break. listerine® cleans virtually 100%. helping to prevent gum disease and bad breath. never settle for 25%. always go for 100. bring out the bold™ alice loves the scent of gain so much, she wished there was a way to make it last longer.

and welcome back to you, our viewers in the united states en, canada and around the world. now to recap our top story, a chaotic night of violence and death in portland, oregon. police are investigating a homicide after a person was shot and killed downtown. the killing came amid fierce and violent clashes between trump supporters and counterdemonstrators. we have to be clear here, we're still waiting to hear if police believe the shooting is actually related to the unrest. kenosha, wisconsin, has seen a week of protests after a black man was shot by a white police officer. now u.s. president donald trump plans to visit the city on tuesday. wisconsin is, of course, a key swing state, and the unrest is having a political impact. mr. trump will immediate with law enforcement and view damage from the protests, but no word on whether he'll speak with the man who was shot or his family. police shootings of black

americans have not only sparked months of protests domestically, but they also ignited a global movement against racism. earlier this summer the police killing of george floyd in minneapolis, minnesota, prompted demonstrations like this one that you're seeing there in london. people outraged by floyd's death, protested against racial injustices in their own countries. demonstrators chanted black lives matter outside the american embassy in london. and the protest's co-organizer spoke to cnn at the time and said how surprised she was by the turnout. >> i was in utter shock when i arrived and there was so many people there. i think the response has been insane. yes, they have the march, there were multiple people, different races, genders, ages, and i think what i realized is that so many people have been affected by this, so many people's family members and friends have been affected by this. and so many people have the same

points and just people want change. >> and aima is back with us between, joining us from london. she's the co-founder of all black lives uk. thank you very much for speaking with us again. when we last spoke with you, you know, there were large protests, statues were being torn down, and then the protests got a bit smaller, less media spotlight, fair to say, for a while, the momentum was kind of, you know, being lost a little bit. how have you been trying to get that back? >> yeah. thank you for having me. so i think the main thing that we have been doing is being consistent and constantly protesting. we have been protesting every single weekend. and we usually go through big streets like oxford street or trafalgar square so a lot of people can see us and hear us. and another thing that we have done is use social media to push the message and not stop, so

that everyone can see that we are still fighting and we haven't kept quiet about it. >> i want to ask you, you know, here in the u.s., since the death of george floyd, we're now embroiled in more protests after yet another black man was shot by police from behind. we're now seeing, you know, these violent clashes between black lives matter protesters and pro trump activists. the country seems more divided. how different is the dynamic there where you are? >> yeah. i do agree that that has happened in the uk as well. i think that i have seen a lot more racism than i've ever seen before, ever since our protests have begun and i think that there have been some anti-blm protests happening all over the uk. i think the divide has been create created and expanded a lot more. >> but i'm curious, has it just revealed sort of the cracks that

were already there, or do you think it actually widened them? >> i think that it revealed them. i don't think it ever widened them. i think it really revealed them and showed to everyone what was actually happening. i don't think it widened them. i think that it always has been there, but it has been hidden. >> now, there is going to be a big black lives matter event in london today, in a very affluent neighborhood, and in addition to the big crowds we're expecting some 3,000 police officers. what are you hoping to see and not see today? is there a danger that the message maybe gets lost here? >> yes. i definitely think that it is a chance of the message will be lost because of one of the organizers has already received numerous threats by the police and is quite terrifying because

our protests did -- at the end for a few hours. and we are terrified that may happen again but i think the huge turnout will show people we need to keep the momentum up and can't stay silent about this. >> are you expecting a lot of violence? >> i don't -- no. i'm not expecting violence because our first protest there wasn't any violence, but the police still kettled us. i don't expect violence from our side. personally. and i hope there is no violence from the police. >> i want to ask you about athletes. it is something we're seeing a lot here, you know, athletes are playing a very big role in the discussion for instance here, we have seen nba players even playing a role in helping people vote in the upcoming election. what issues would you like to see athletes get involved with when it comes to black lives matter, sort of beyond what we

have seen football players kneeling before games and so on? >> i think that a big thing that we need to say is donating to a lot of go fund me for black people affected throughout these protests. also, i think that with boycotting events it only -- it seems like performance and activism and only happens for a few -- maybe a day or so, i think that they should elongate it and they should keep boycotting and protesting for their rights. and i think that you can't just protest for one day and think there will be change, it has to be for an elongated amount of time. the time they fight for their rights needs to be increased. >> well, i think it is admirable that young people such as yourself are getting involved, and making their presence felt for change. we appreciate you talking to us

again, aima, co-founder of all black lives uk. appreciate you being with us. >> thank you. we have much more to come still on "cnn newsroom," including the migrant crisis on the mediterranean sea. it is worsening. we'll tell you about the latest rescue and the people with nowhere to go. stay with us. is now a good time for a flare-up? enough, crohn's. for adults with moderate to severe crohn's or ulcerative colitis, stelara® can provide relief, and is the only approved medication to reduce inflammation on and below the surface of the intestine in uc. you, getting on that flight? back off, uc. stelara® may increase your risk of infections, some serious, and cancer. before treatment, get tested for tb. tell your doctor if you have an infection, flu-like symptoms, sores, new skin growths, have had cancer, or if you need a vaccine. rpls, a rare, potentially fatal brain condition, may be possible. some serious allergic reactions

and swelling. change your thinking to ibs-c. if your constipation and belly pain keeps coming back, tell your doctor and say yesss! to linzess.

rescue boat in the mediterranean funded by british street artist banksy was so overcrowded with migrants, well, it needed rescue itself. after several tense hours, the migrants were transferred on to two other boats and we understand that at least one of those boats reached the italian island of lampadusa. here is more on their journey. >> reporter: a ship in need loaded with most needy of people. the rescue boat required help

itself on saturday after it became so overcrowded with migrants it picked up in the mediterranean it was unable to move. the italian coast guard evacuated dozens of the most vulnerable people, there were women and children, some extremely traumatized. these are photos of a humanitarian chship called the a watch 4. it answered the call to help the other ship, which is unlike other rescue boats. it is funded by the british street artist banksy. the sea watch 4 was fairly close by since it too had rescued migrants and was waiting for permission to dock in a safe port. since many countries are wary of receiving migrants because of the pandemic. so far the u.n. says more than 40,000 migrants have crossed the mediterranean to reach europe this year. many of them are from tunisia and libya. on the other side of europe, patrols have been set up on the beaches to stop migrants from make the 30 kilometer journey

across the english channel to dover. british reportes say nearly 5,000 immigrants have come ashore in small boats since lockdown began, many recently because of incentives like warm weather and deceptively calm seas. you can cross from a beach or port with your sailboat, one activist says, starting out with calm seas and no wind and in an instant you pass through a cape, find yourself in rough seas with violent winds. across the uk and europe what to do with the migrants and stop them from coming is an increasingly politically charged debate with many conservative politicians calling for stronger border enforcement. political debate that can't be heard on the high seas by migrants risking their lives for a better life and the people trying to help them. again, a group of migrants who were rescued from that boat funded by british street artist banksy has now arrived in italy. cnn contributor barbie nadeau is following the story from rome. tell us what more are we learning about this. >> well, you know this is not an

isolated incident. over the last 24 hours, 540 migrants have come on 30 smaller boats, 30 individual boats, to the island. and, you know, because we have star power here, it is shining a light on this particular boat and the people on it. but this is a problem that has been going on not just this summer, but for many, many years and it is so politically divisive, especially in this country, and especially because of the covid situation where the migrants need to be tested, isolated, but a lot of people are coming into italy from other places, like france, and spain, where there are high numbers of covid as well. those people are getting tested easily. people are questioning why they can't just as easily test the migrants and refugees. >> all right, well, barbie nadeau in rome, thank you for that. appreciate it. irish politics are being roiled after dozens of current and former politicians attended a parliamentary golf society dinner despite covid-19
