plus new york governor andrew cuomo said to be in a fighting mood as more allies call on him to resign and a frightening new report on climate change. we're going to tell you why the secretary general is calling it a code red for humanity. but i want to start in florida. that's where governor ron desantis' office is saying that the state could with hold salaries of any school official who forces a mask mandate. thank you for joining us, i appreciate it. >> thank you, don. >> so the coronavirus cases and hospitalizations are really spiking in your state. your district was planning to require masks, but now the governor is threatening to dock your pay. how are you going to respond to that? >> well, you know, we're having our school board meeting tomorrow and i'm really confident that our school board is going to hold strong because they do know that our students lives matters and our employees

matter. we have 35,000 employees that are going to start school in two days and our students will be here next week. and i -- i don't think that threat is going to scare them. they're strong women and they care about their students. they were elected by us and they've heard from us and the vast majority wants them to make sure that we're all protected. >> do you think, anna, that the governor is punishing teachers for political reasons? >> i -- you know what, i can't answer what the governor is doing this. he just gave everybody a thousand dollars bonus, classroom teachers and principals, and now he wants to act like our lives don't matter. it's just something that is got everybody confused and trying to figure out where is he coming from? why is he doing this for masks and keeping protocols in place that have kept the spread, you know -- no spread happened in broward county public schools

for multiple protocols and one of them was the mask-wearing. >> tonight a spokesman for the governor said that mask mandates are okay if they allow parents to opt out of the requirement. what good is a mask mandate if you don't have to follow it? >> well, we want a mask mandate and the opt-out portion, we had a little mask opt-out portion back in -- last school year where it was for the -- you know the most medically needy and there were protocols that needed to take place. if there's going to be any discussion of any type of opt out, i would say that that would take the course of what we did last school year. if you're going to opt out, you hit the nail on the head, why have a mask mandate. >> what are you hearing from teachers in your county? what are their concerns? >> their concerns are that they're going to be in a

classroom anywhere from 20 students to, you know, 35 students, 60 students, depending on what class they're teaching. and they want to be protected, they want their students to be protected. they're looking forward to having kids back face to face. and they want to keep all the protocols in place and one of them is the masks and they are, you know, asking -- basically, you know, saying that, you know, we want to come back, keep the masks there, keep your schools clean, make sure we're being taken care of with proper cleaning and sanitizing, let us continue what we did last year when we went back to school in october that kept the spread out of our schools. >> you think there should be mask -- a vaccine mandates for teachers? >> well, i would say, let's see what's happening when the fda is going to come forward and if it's passed, i think we can have more conversation on the mandate. i do know that the vast majority of your teachers in broward

county public schools, all of the employees, they couldn't wait for the vaccine to come out. if we were able to have a conversation of how many were vaccinated, i think we would be pleasantly surprised that it's not the teachers or the public school employees that are not vaccinated. you know, they have been encouraged. the lines were down the street when they opened up. sites for our teachers and employees. so i would say that we're on the road to making sure that we're going to continue to be safe. i strongly encourage vaccines. i do know myself on a personal level, if the mandate did happen, i wouldn't stand in the way. but i think that there's many reasons why people might not be able to get vaccinated now. but we're hoping that people, if they're able to, that they get in line and get vaccinated. it will just be a stronger possibility that we can have the spread stop and get past this. >> school starts in a matter of

days. what's your message to governor ron desantis tonight? >> our message to the governor is, you're elected governor and your position is to take care of our state. you're a servant of us and we need you to stand up and be a strong positive governor and show that you care about your lives. please stop attacking our school districts, threatening you're going to take away funding, threatening you're going to take away salaries of our superintendents and elected board leaders. they've been chosen by the constituents as you have been and let everybody stay in their lane and take care of what we need to do in our school districts. we have faith in our school board ladies and our new superintendent. so please do what's right for our state and stop this type of action that you don't care about people's lives. >> anna, thank you so much. i want to turn now to texas, that's where the virus is

raging. governor greg abbott is banning mask mandates in schools. a dallas county judge is asking a texas court for a temporary restraining order against the governor over his ban. while the state capital of austin, a teacher pleads with her school board to defy the governor and the mask requirements. >> you've asked me to be brave as i practice getting 24 fourth graders into a bathroom, you've asked me to be brave as i think about what would happen if there was some sort of extreme danger and my class is on the playground. you've asked me to be brave and come back to work during a pandemic after surgery and six months of chemotherapy after sage three cancer and i've done it and i will do it and i will show up and i will get in the closet and look for the path to the woods. you don't have to do these

things. but just as i will be brave and think about how my body might shield children from danger, i ask that you be brave today. you know what you need to do to protect children. do it, implement a mask mandate and vaccination requirements for students and staff. >> and that was a teacher in austin -- in the austin independent school district and there she is on your screen now live. thank you. i appreciate you coming on and telling your story and for the really powerful message that you gave there. it's not just you. parents and students were begging for a mask mandate tonight. let's listen to them and then you and i will talk. >> please, stand up to governor abbott and his antiscience order and require masks for austin students. my 9-year-old has sacrificed 15% of his childhood to stay safe at home. i'm terrified all that he has given up, his brothers may bring covid home to him. >> i encourage you to stand for the safety of our community.

the leadership means protecting others and speaking up for them. >> it's our responsibility to protect our children. returning to school without a mask mandate risks the lives of our children. it teaches them that education is unnecessary and critical thinking is not actually critical. >> interesting. i think i misspoke when i was you were against them. you want the mask. you're against the governor banning the masks. you all want the school board of trustees to go against the governor and require masks. how do you see this playing out? >> yeah, thanks, don. thanks for having me tonight. i called into the school board meeting this morning, you know, thinking my audience was just whoever watches the school board meeting in austin, texas, and now i'm on your show. but i'm just one voice but there are many of us in austin, in texas asking schools to implement school-wide, district-wide mask mandates to keep your children safe.

and so that's -- the community in austin is coming together to demand that the school district in austin defy governor abbott's -- a ban on mask mandates and implement a mask mandate to keep your kids safe. >> you battled cancer. you mentioned that you had a weakened immune system there. is -- and the tape that we played. is the governor putting your health at risk with this ban? >> well, certainly, yeah. i think i have a unique perspective on the pandemic because i spent the whole pandemic trying not to die from cancer, chemo and covid. and really i have within me a duty to serve children, to educate children and that's where i need to be too. i need them first and foremost to be safe when they're with me. and i need to stay safe so that i can serve them and work with them and their families. so, yeah, my health is on the line as well. and i need to stay safe for

them. >> clearly -- i admire your passion on this. and i know you're worried about your students. what are you hearing from parents in the community, caroline? >> i work in an area of austin that is underresourced. at the school i work at, everyone receives free breakfast and lunch. and that's the type of school i've always worked in and it is an area of austin that has been so hard hit by covid and the families that we work with have suffered immense tragedies. and in a recent survey, the respondents from my school, 92% of parents said they would send their kids to school with a mask. so in my community, that's what we need. that's what we want. and that's what we are going to do to keep our kids safe. >> today the governor sent a letter asking texas hospitals to voluntarily postpone elected medical procedures to increase hospital capacity for covid

patients. clearly he understands the threat to your state. why do you think the governor is banning mask mandates? why would he do this? >> look, it's really hard for me to speak on governor abbott's motives. but i have theories about how certain politicians might prefer to create strife in public education which opens up opportunities for charter and other privatization efforts. and so i think that might be an underlying factor. in the broader political landscape, i understand that governor abbott might be trying to maintain certain allies. but as a person who is about to walk into a classroom next week with kids, i don't even want to talk about olypolitics anymore, just want to keep the kids safe. >> i hope folks listen. i appreciate you coming on. thanks so much. >> thank you, don.

so i'm going to bring in dr. jonathan reiner. he's the director of the cardiac president, and also with us, mark mckinnon and the executive producer of the circus. good evening. dr. reiner, you just heard those educators, facing threats and pushback from their governors for trying to keep students safe. there were parents there pleading with him to -- with this delta variant, they are angry and they are rightfully so at the so-called leaders playing games with their children's lives. >> right. so this variant is infecting kids at a very rapid rate now. about 220 children are being admitted to -- children's hospitals every day in the united states and in parts of the country, it's hard to find a

room in an intensive care unit in a children's hospital because of the coronavirus. so the threat is real. over 4,000 kids in this country have had the multisystem inflammatory syndrome, a serious disease with unknown long-term consequences. so the consequences are real and now -- it's also important to understand that all of our kids under the age of 12 are vulnerable to be infected. we have vaccinated almost 200 million people in this country, none of them are under 12. so we need to link arms, we need to put the con sense of the politics away and we need to protect our kids as best as possible. hopefully sometime in september or so, we'll be able to vaccine children under age of 12. to protect the kids and also the

vulnerable teachers like your last guest who after having survived cancer remains vulnerable to being infected with this virus. >> what i hear -- this is another thing. i hear parents and -- getting excuses for their kids and saying, well, my kid has diabetes or my kid has, you know, some sort of underlying condition. isn't that even more of an incentive for them to get the vaccine? >> absolutely. >> why are they using the excuse to opt out of it when it's the one that should be -- they should be using to get a vaccine? >> you know, it's the entirely wrong philosophy. the more fragile your child is, the more desperate you should want to protect them with a mask and eventually with a vaccine. only about a third of kids between 12 and 18, only a third of those adolescence have been vaccinated and they can be

vaccinated now. we have to do a lot better. this virus is infecting children and i'm really worried about what happens when schools open over the next month. particularly in places where masks will not be universal. >> yeah. mark, let's talk about the political side of this. the political strategy. what kind of political strategy is it to put children at risk and then double down on it? >> i think it's insane, don. this has to be -- i've seen a lot in politics over the years. this is the most cruel, insensitive public policy, if you want to call it that, it's naked politics to base of the republican party. that they would deny masks when they're saying they want the schools to be open. everybody wants the schools to be open. and ron desantis says we're not going to do the mask mandate in florida, we need our kids to

breathe. the masks are what are going to keep kids from going into a hospital, into an icu unit and put on a ventilator so they can breathe for the rest of their lives. it's ridiculous and it's -- i believe it's going to have enormous consequences. ron desantis and greg abbott are playing russian roulettes with children's lives now because of their politics. >> do you think they're going to regret it? mark, do you think they're going to regret it? >> i think they're going to regret it for the rest of their lives. i really do. i think it's shameful and i think that they will regret this for the rest of their lives. >> this is governor desantis, what he recently said about the pandemic. >> i talk to people around the state, how are things going and they say things are humming. >> i think the question is, we can either have a free society or we can have a biomedical security state. >> in terms of imposing any

restrictions, you know, that's not happening in florida. it's harmful. it's destructive. it does not work. >> at the end of the day, we got to start putting our kids first. we got to look out for their education. is it really comfortable? is it really healthy for them to be muzzled and have their breathing obstructed all day long in school? i don't think it is. >> i mean, mark, what -- >> you think they're going to be more comfortable on a ventilator? i don't think so. >> you think they have -- people are pushing back. have they backed themselves into a corner? >> i think they have. and i think you're right, don. i think they're just doubling down because they don't know -- they think they can't scramble out of it now because they've gone this kedeep and i think th consequences are going to be tragic. >> i call my senators or governor's office to make an appointment for some medical advice and they said call your doctor. and they said, yeah, exactly.

that's the point. dr. reiner, i got to get your take on rand paul slamming cdc guidelines. take a listen to this. >> no one should follow the cdc's antiscience mask mandates. will we allow these people to use fear and propaganda to do further harm to our society, economy and children? or will we stand together and say, absolutely not. not this time. i choose freedom. >> how dangerous is this rhetoric coming from an elected official with a medical degree? >> well, that former ophthalmologist is always wrong about this pandemic. he has been wrong about everything he has spoken about. first of all, he should spend a little bit more time worrying about what's going on in connecticut. connecticut right now has a case average of 47 cases per 100,000 residents. it's like three times what it is

in new york state. the virus is -- is out of control in his state. and his constant antiscience rhetoric, he's the same senator who decided it was a great idea to go for a swim in the senate swimming pool while he was waiting for his covid test to come back. in january, he was the only senator on the floor in the senate refusing to wear a mask. he has doubted vaccines in the past. at a hearing two years ago, he said he doesn't want to give up liberty for a false sense of security when it comes to masks. he's an antiscience promoter and he's dangerous. >> give me liberty or give me death? well -- >> he might have that. >> that's -- exactly. thank you both, i appreciate it. the embattled governor of new york is in a fighting mood

even though his aides are urging him to resign. >> everyone is pushing the governor to resign based on a report that has not been vetted and people are taking to be 100% true. so that you can live that scuff-free life. honey, i'm home! honey! scuff defense. i love our scuff-free life. behr ultra scuff defense. exclusively at the home depot.

when you're on the lanes, they're right behind you. reunite with your team. go bowling. sources telling cnn that new york governor andrew cuomo's closest confidants spent the weekend trying to convince him to resign. just last week, a report from new york's attorney general found the governor sexually harassed 11 women. joining me now, errol lewis. thank you so much. >> good to be with you, don. >> absolutely. just moments ago on cnn,

governor cuomo's attorney talking about the explosive allegations by the state trooper number one. here's what she said to say on that. >> i know that the governor wants with respect to trooper number one, he wants to apologize to her. he has tremendous respect for her and he never in any way, shape, or form meant to make her feel as though he was touching her in a sexual way or violated as i think she testified to. i want to make that point. in any way that she felt that way, that she did something that was untoward and that she felt disrespected. absolutely. >> so she says that cuomo is going to speak out soon on that soon. but it's now been a week. what do you think about this development? you saw the interview. i thought erika did a great job on that interview. >> yeah, that was a great interview. the governor keeps going back to apologizing which in many ways

misses the point, don. this is not an attempt to get to the bottom of how he was feeling or what he intended. that's not how sexual harassment in the workplace functions. the way it works is, if you've done something that is harmful or offensive or outside of the rules, then there's -- you have to be held accountable for it. and that's really what this overall procedure is about. the governor keeps coming back to saying, i apologize, i didn't mean it. i don't know if he intends to have 11 different apologizes to 11 different women, but it doesn't negate the action and the potential unlawfulness of the action if you're sorry about it or if you think there was some sort of misunderstanding. every corporation that makes its workers sit through these horrible videos about what you are and are not supposed to do, it goes through this. and you do not have the excuse of, i was joking or she m

misinterpreted it or i didn't mean to. those things don't apply in this kind of situation. >> does it show you, though, considering what happened with the attorney coming out and said there's an effort to litigate this case in the media rather than just doing it behind closed doors because the a.g.'s office is not speaking out. they're saying the report speaks for itself. as they should, the cuomo side should be getting their story out, but it seems to be an effort to sort of win over public opinion. do you feel that way or no? >> i think they might believe that's what they're doing. i don't know that it's working. we've only seen two polls so far and they both shows supermajorities of new yorkers want the governor to resign. the fine line between making your case and victim blaming is getting crossed on a regular basis. if young women who have

absolutely nothing to gain by coming forward in case after case after case are coming forward, you know, any way you want to put it, if you want to act as if, well, they're confused or they misunderstood me, you're getting near the line of saying, well, it's their fault. i was just being me and they somehow misinterpreted it. >> one of andrew cuomo's closest aides resigned overnight and the governor's attorney told my colleague erika hill that she has worked nonstop for the last two years and that takes a toll. but melissa is all over the state attorney general report. do you think she's jumping a sinking ship or what do you think of this? >> i think she's looking out for her best interests and, you know, it's very telling that in her brief note announcing her resignation she does not mention andrew cuomo.

she doesn't mention the person who hired her, elevated her, gave her all of that power and worked side by side with her literally for years. that is telling. that's not an accident. it's not like she was too busy on a sunday night to put in a word of thanks to him. and what it strongly suggests, don, she sees her own personal and perhaps legal interests as diverging of that from the governor and diverging from that of the administration. i read this as a sign that she sees the storm clouds gathering, she sees that the governor wants to fight, wants to fight with somebody, and she also seeing that the state assembly and other sources, including the sheriff of albany county, are bringing what can be real legal heat that she's not going to escape if she stays in that administration. so i think this was, you know, one more sign that this administration is kind of coming apart and at this point is

literally leaderless. the role she filled is almost like a deputy governor. all agencies would report to her. she knew the mind of the governor and could speak for the governor on any given day -- >> and a press person to boot. >> we don't know who is going to fill in that role now. >> quick answer, please, you're going to get me in trouble here, what did you make of brittany's commisso's interview this morning? >> i thought she was believable. you look at her motives, you look at her story, it sounds plausible. she didn't -- she went out of her way to remain anonymous and she feels like she was mall treated and she wants some measure of justice for it. it sounded very familiar. >> thank you. see you soon. >> thank you. yes, there had been breakthrough cases but the vaccine protects people from getting seriously ill and my

next guest has the x-rays to show you exactly how much it's protecting people.

every single day, we're all getting a little bit better. we're better cooks... better neighbors... hi. i've got this until you get back. better parents... and better friends. no! no! that's why comcast works around the clock constantly improving america's largest gig-speed broadband network. and just doubled the capacity here. how do things look on your end? -perfect! because we're building a better network every single day.

encouraging news tonight for the more than 50% of americans who are fully vaccinated now. a new cnn analysis of cdc data suggests that 99.99% of fully vaccinated americans have not had a breakthrough case severe enough to land them in the

hospital or resulting in death. and it comes as we're learning even more about how the vaccine protects people from the worst of covid. joining me now to discuss this, a radiologist at the university of california san diego health and has been analyzing x-rays of covid patients since this pandemic began. good evening, to you. i'm excited to talk to you and i want people to see what you're talking about. thank you, thank you, thank you, doctor. i want you to look at some of these pictures that you've got to show us, just how much protection these vaccines give people. we're looking at two sets of lungs, from covid-19 positive patients. the person on the left is vaccinated. the person on the right is not. tell us what the pictures show you or show us about how effective the vaccines are. >> yeah, thanks for having me. i think the two images that you have are fairly representative of what we're seeing at uc san diego and a number of other

places around the country, i'm sure. the image on the left, i assume, is the patient who was previously vaccinated and had a very mild case of covid for which there was very little involvement of the lungs and the picture on the right is a picture of a patient who was previously not vaccinated, didn't get around to having the vaccine and has a lot of white spaces, cloudy areas of the lungs that are indicative of in a pneumonia. >> can you explain what the vaccine does to the body's immune system to create these results? >> well, so the vaccine gives your body a head start to see -- to react to a virus -- to a foreign invader well in advance of when that infection occurs. and so it's like having an army prepared before an attack. and so in the vaccinated patient, that army is ready,

maybe has to adjust a little bit and it can quickly respond. in the unvaccinated patient, that's not the case. the foreign invader is completely -- catches the body by surprises and allows it to grow unchecked. >> like i said, you have been analyzing these x-rays since the beginning of the pandemic. can you please tell us -- can you tell us if the different variants -- can you see different variants in different images when you're looking at this? >> well, not directly. honestly, once the vaccination rates hit the highs of -- locally, we've been able to get 70% of our local population vaccinated. we returned mostly to normal. and so what we're seeing now is a steep rise amongst mostly unvaccinated patients. a few vaccinated patients are getting covid as well. but we're attributing that to

the massive rise of delta variant cases that we're experiencing. >> with some of the breakthrough cases coming through, there's also been misinformation coming through as well. people saying that the vaccines don't help against the delta variant. do pictures like these need to get out to more people so that they can see that the point of all this is to prevent serious illness and death, that's really the bottom line here? >> right. i think over the coming years, this virus seems like it's going to be with us for a long time. we should be expecting that it will change and adapt to our immune responses and eventually more and more people will get the infection. but the key thing for most of these infections, like the flu and whatnot, is if your body is prepared, you won't get so sick and require a breathing tube. >> doctor, thank you. i learned a lot. i really appreciate you being on tonight. >> thanks a lot for having me.

we're way past warning signs. 200 scientists say global warming can't be stopped. and the consequences already being felt are only the beginning if we don't do something now. so stay with us.

the united nations sounding the alarm on what the secretary general is calling a code red for humanity, a frightening new

u.n. report outlining the threat posed by the climate crisis with scientists warning that the window to avoid changes is clothing. humans are unequivocally warming the planet at a pace faster than previously thought. cutting greenhouse gas emissions is the only way out of this. every part of the planet is being effected with some irreversible changes and the level of atmospheric methane is skyrocketing. bring in the senior scientists at the climate research center. thank you. i'm scared quite honestly. i've been wondering recently, have we gone past the point of return? because this u.n. report is a wakeup call. it's happening as severe weather events sweep across the globe,

the dixie fire in california, the second largest island in greece burning. it's not just wildfires, it's floods, heat waves, droughts, like the one that's dried up a lake in iran. are people beginning to realize that the climate crisis isn't something down the road in the future, that it's right now. the future is now? >> well, i sure hope so, don. because i think all the evidence that you just listed just from 2021 is certainly getting people's attention and i think people are starting to realize that, you know, this isn't the climate system that they grew up with. things are changing so fast and this report makes that very clear. as you know, this report is the sixth that the intergovernmental panel on climate change has put out since 1990 and every one of those six reports has come out with a clearer picture, stronger language, a louder ringing of

the alarm bells about this climate crisis that we've created. this is our doing. and there's no doubt about that. >> but the alarm bells have been going off for a long time now. you point out this is the sixth report from the u.n. group since 1990. so what's been the biggest barrier of progress on this? >> the biggest barrier to progress has been a very successful disinformation campaign that's really been fueled and financed by the fossil fuel industry. they've been spending millions and millions of dollars putting wrong information out there and people are unfortunately believing it. it's easy to believe. you want to believe it. you don't want to have to change. and they are using that desire to confuse people, to cast doubt, to make it seem like this is not a big problem. but it's becoming very clear now that mother nature has a very different plan in progress.

>> you say that we can control how much worse this crisis gets and we've got to pull out all the stops immediately. what are the stops and what would work? >> well, we've got to do everything all the way from our individual behavior, all the way up to government behavior. so everything in between. there's a lot happening on the individual and community and even state level and many countries as well. but less progress has been happening really at our national level and that's where it really has to happen. so, you know, literally, we need to stop spending money on more infrastructure that supports the follows fuel industry. we need to stop subsidizing more fossil fuel exploration and building of infrastructure and instead spend that many millions of dollars that we have been using to subsidize the fossil fuel industry on things that are going to take us into the

future, renewable energy, a better electric grid, more jobs to put in those solar panels, to build more wind turbines, that's the future. >> the bipartisan infrastructure plan doesn't go as far as hoped on climate change. but democrats today unveiled the climate provisions in the 3 1/2 trillion dollar reconciliation bill. it would provide tax incentives for clean energy, manufacturing and transportation imposed, polluter fees, coastal and ocean resiliency programs, invest to fight droughts and wildfires. would impact would they have? >> well, we'll see. so far, it's mostly just a lot of talk. and so we really need to see that rubber hitting the road and starting to see some of these incentive programs, fee programs, things that are going to actually change people's behavior and government's behavior, business behavior so we are aiming more towards an economy based on a renewable
