tv   Don Lemon Tonight  CNN  September 2, 2022 10:00pm-11:00pm PDT

10:00 pm
legendary actress and activist, jane fonda, says she's been diagnosed with non- hodgkin's lymphoma and started six months of chemotherapy. this is a cancer of the immune system and she is nearly 85 years old. quoting from her interim account, "this is a very treatable cancer. 80% of people survive, i feel lucky. " she said she is handling treatment well and says she will not let this interfere with her climate activism, and,
10:01 pm
"cancer is a teacher and i am paying attention to the lessons it holds for me." to which we might add, our best wishes for a full and speedy recovery. the news continues. let's handed over to laura coats and don lemon. >> thank you. i know people now are probably thinking, and we watch cnn or serena, choose dvr. tonight, in for don lemon. they said they wanted transparency, and boy, did they get it. the judge today releases a detailed inventory from the mar- a-lago search. 11 pages, laying out exactly what investigators found at the former president home. we are talking more than 11,000 nonclassified government documents, as well. there is more. 18 documents were marked top- secret, 54, marked secret, and 31, marked confidential. what did they call it? an overdue library book? this certainly is not that.
10:02 pm
that is a massive haul of documents that are actually the property of the united states government. not of a former president. frankly, it is astonishing. it is unprecedented. don't take my word for it, listen to the former attorney general, bill barr, who was on fox news, today. that's right. fox. >> let me just say, i think the driver on this, from the beginning, was loads of classified information sitting in mar-a-lago. people say this was unprecedented, but it's unprecedented for president to take this classified information and put in a country club, okay? how long is the government going to try to get that back? the jawbone for a year, they were deceived on the voluntary actions taken, they then went and got a subpoena, they were deceived on that.
10:03 pm
the facts are starting to show, that they were being jerked around, so how long did they wait? >> i mean, that is a good question. it is probably one that was asked before they went for that search warrant. also, found in the search of mar-a-lago, dozens of empty folders, classified bands. empty folders. we do not know whether that means documents were actually previously inside of those folders, and documents were then mishandled, or where these documents are, right now, that might have been in those folders, let alone, the question of what was on and in these documents. a source told cnn that folders like these are actually often reused, which might be news to many people. it raises a lot of questions. these might be questions we may never get the answers to, at least at this part of the investigation. i don't want anyone to forget, the ruling on trump's team request, for a special master.
10:04 pm
it has not come, yet, but it could come at any moment. the former ag had something to say about that issue, too. >> i think the idea of a special master is a red herring. since they have already gone to the documents, i think it is a waste of time. >> can you really unring that bell, now? several weeks after that search was even executed. brand-new sources tell cnn that mark meadows handed over text messages and emails to the national archives, within a week of the search of mar-a- lago. that's interesting. i want to bring in our national correspondent, kristin holmes, and sarah murray, here tonight, former u.s. attorney's harry lippmann and cia operations officer douglas london, offer of author of "the recruiter," spying in the lost art. what a panel to have.
10:05 pm
we begin with you, sarah. can you tell us more about the inventory that was unsealed? it had interesting notions. >> it was quite a haul. we are talking about 11,000 government documents that were not classified, hundred and three with classified markings of different levels, secret, top secret, confidential. those folders you mention that did not have documents in them but had classified banners on them? they took a bunch of boxes of stuff out of the former president's office, and those include 27 classified documents. a lot of the stuff, these documents that were not classified, classified documents are intermingled with other stuff. magazines, newspaper clippings, articles of clothing, gifts. it gives you a sense of how chaotically this was being stored. >> it's almost like a junk drawer in someone's house, these things, your pulling stuff out, maybe a screwdriver. douglas, talk to me about the
10:06 pm
empty folders. many people, you can steer the retort or say, hold on a second. we saw that picture attached to that like the motion from the government. are we saying that these were just empty folders we are talking about? what is your take were concerned about the fact that you did have at least some empty folders there? >> it certainly raises a lot of questions, more questions than answers. the folders have to match whatever the classification is of the documents enclosed. you are talking about the president secretary, not just somebody who was ad hoc reason folders. this is the professional staff of the president of united states. you would imagine there is tracking. anything the cia would send to the white house, to the nsc, had tracking numbers. you knew specifically who had what document, who passed it on to who, because there was a sign in sheet and another thing to note from the picture and other inventory listed, today, the former president talked about having declassified. he
10:07 pm
had the authority to do so, but had any of those documents been declassified that they would have been blocked out or crossed out, as you can go online and find it declassified documents. >> you don't mean redacted, you mean the label would have been crossed out in some way, you would have known. >> the actual label. they go through and cross out secret, on the headers, and footers, throughout the document and the label. >> on the notion of tracking, when you talk about that, there are some documents, i think, included where it was noted to have this return to some person whose job it was to bring it back to the original source of information in terms of the agency. is that standard, and why would those folders still be with the president? >> well, for context, the president does not get wrong documents. for example, the president's daily brief is usually one page. it comes with a package that the briefer has that has background and details and usually anticipated questions
10:08 pm
the president might ask. the president gets a streamlined version, supported by briefs like power points. storyboards, things like that. he might have had documents to be returned to his aides, left in a briefing, but they themselves would be small. some of those folders we saw laid out by the fbi looks far thicker than what we normally would see going to the chief executive. >> that is important. i have the impression of cliff notes, as he's talking about, from the old school days when you didn't read the whole shakespeare and you had the sidebar. i'm not accusing you of that, of course. you are a thorough student, i can imagine. when you are looking at it as a prosecutor in particular, you see that some of these classified documents were stored with press clippings and gifts, and at some point, passports involved at one point. what is a prosecutor in doj thinking? what would that tell you in terms of possession? >> yeah, so your spider sense on the passport in particular
10:09 pm
says, hey, these were with him. where do you store your passport? not pell-mell in the storage room. that is your stuff, your important documents. at least those, at least three classified documents that were with him, it seems, to really point at possession, and therefore, everything we know, no concealment. this makes everything about january, way back when, feel different, to me. we had the image of his grabbing up some stuff, stuffing them in bags. you would need a dumpster for all this stuff. this was an operation of just grabbing tens of thousands of documents along with the classified stuff. that all looked very different. you know that he had some exercise of control over it. it looks different, from the inception, and then, the whole course of 20 months, where he is saying, you know, here, you can have this back, but we are done, now. we know that, you know, he is
10:10 pm
whittling down on an enormous pile, not forgetting a few things here and through here. that makes obstruction in terms of the knowing concealment of documents, more provable. that is how you feel, as a prosecutor. >> it makes me think, for you to have that much information, you had to have help to get everything down there. my radar -- >> witnesses. >> people who may have been a source of information to say, here is what is down there. tristan, you have new reporting, that transformer white house staff, mark meadows, turning over records to the national archives. what do you know? >> these are brand-new details that show the level of engagement between mark meadows and the national archives, as well as what he actually turned over to the agency. what we have learned is that within the week of that search, mark meadows turned over text,
10:11 pm
as well as emails, to the national archives. this was part of an earlier request for all electronic correspondence that falls under the presidential records act. what is interesting is that the national archives only realized that they had not gotten everything from mark meadows when they saw what he turned over to the january 6th committee. i do want to be clear, this is not the same as what was going on with trump. the archives views mark meadows as cooperating and this is how it should work, not something they will prefer to determine of justice. in addition to his own records, his own correspondence that he has turned over, we have also learned that he was helping to try to get trump to turn over the documents that were down at mar-a-lago. we learned about a meeting, last summer, 2021, in which mark meadows went to trump after being contacted by another designee to the archives, mark meadows was also a designee, and basically trying to get him to return the documents. obviously, we do not know the details of the conversation, but we do see where it ended up which was actually turning over
10:12 pm
all of those documents. in terms of the timing, i want to note that we have conflicting sources. we have one saying, this had nothing to do with the search, that this was planned, to turn is over, this happened to be, the timing. we have another source, familiar with the matter, who said, maybe it's a coincidence, but we did get more information than we had ever gotten before after the search. >> you know what they say about coincidences in the courtroom. they do not happen. sarah, on this point, as well, back to mar-a-lago. it has been more than a full day since the hearing over that special master request. here we are, 9:00 on a friday night, labor day weekend upon us. we do not have anything from a judge. i am wondering, do we have any idea when it might be coming? >> you know, take talk. she said she would issue a ruling in due course. she did not offer details about
10:13 pm
what that means, but you can imagine she did not decide to issue the ruling from the bench and is going to be thoughtful and will spend a little time in writing this up, and maybe that is how she is spending her friday night, going into the holiday weekend. she is just putting the finishing touches on and it will be out any minute. maybe she is waiting until next week. she did not get a hint about how long she's going to take to craft this writing. >> 20 bucks says she's watching the u.s. open right now. she's like look, give me my friday night, it might be serena's last match, i don't know, i'll get it to you. that's the beauty of an article free judge, that life tenure. they will do what they like to do. i want to play a little bit more of what bill barr had to say about the case. i want you to respond. >> what people are missing is that all of the other documents taken, even if they claim to be executive privilege, either belong to the government because they are government records, even if classified, even if subject to executive
10:14 pm
privilege. they still belong to the government and go to the archives. any other documents that were seized, news clippings, and other things in the boxes containing the classified information, those were seasonable under the warrant, because they show the conditions under which the classified information was being held. i think it is a red herring. >> do you agree? >> 100%. it is axiomatic, but there is something that follows, which is, executive privilege is perfectly meaningless, here. this is government stuff, by the executive branch. even if you found executive privilege, what would you do? give it back to the archives. really, it's a blunder. i understand, she is going in due course. most judges would have issued it, by now. to me, the question is, is she taking her time writing or thinking it through? if she have not figured out by now, there is really no
10:15 pm
executive privilege claim, then, you know, i'm nervous. >> we will see. obviously there is a huge magnifying glass over this case. that has to be part of the calculation. nice to see you all. thank you. >> arozarena. >> i heard him say go serena. i caught that. for those comments about election deniers, and the assault on the vote, there's a lot going on, there. is there a more serious threat to our democracy? i will talk about it with the former u.s. senator who says, absolutely. >> joe biden and democrats in congress just passed a law to lower the cost of medicine. the inflation reduction act caps the cost of insulin at $35 a month for seniors.

10:20 pm
republicans were pretty quick to denounce president biden's speech on democracy last night. they cast him as a divisive and angry figure. but, if you listen to the substance of his speech, he seemed to direct his ire at election deniers and endorses a political violence, what he calls, maga republicans, and pointing to them as the dividers of this nation. >> donald trump and the maga republicans represent and extremism that threatens the very foundations of our republic. i refuse to accept them. they refused to accept elections, and they are working right now to give power to
10:21 pm
decide elections in america to partisans and cronies, empowering election deniers, to undermine democracy itself. they promote authoritarian leaders and they fan the flames of political violence. i want to say this. there is no place for political violence in america, period. none. we cannot afford to have anyone on the sidelines. we need everyone to do their part. speak up, speak out, get engaged, vote. >> democracy is not and never has been a spectator sport, as they say. but, is voting enough to protect and preserve our democracy? i want to get some perspective from a scholar of constitutional law and former senator from wisconsin, russ feingold, co-author of the newly published book, "the constitution in jeopardy." nice to see you, senator.
10:22 pm
you are from wisconsin, i am from minnesota. it's okay, you can say, it's fine. >> i appreciate your kindness. >> it's fine today. president biden has not been pulling punches, saying in order to save democracy, as a nation, it's critical to unite in rejecting trump and as he says, maga republicans. do you agree with that characterization and do you think that he goes far enough to distinguish maga republicans from mainstream republicans, or is it getting lost in translation? >> he did not have to do this. he's been on a political role and is doing well with the jobs and major legislation about anti-inflation and climate, and he has filled the judiciary with many good aggressive and diverse judges. he did not have to do this. he did it because he cares about this country. he cares about our democracy and had to call out these maga republicans that are trying to subvert democracy.
10:23 pm
it's like what liz cheney has done. a conservative republican who is giving up her house seat because she cares more about her democracy in the country than just politics. i think the president is doing the right thing and i'm proud. >> you get the impression, that it's a catch-22. many have been critical of the president for not addressing or confronting the maga republicans, or being too timid and not showcasing enough of his frustration over what has happened. you also have this, going back to even his inaugural speech and address, the idea of being united, the idea of trying to battle for the soul of the nation. mccarthy and other republicans are saying that biden is tarring 7 million people with this label and it's odd, in a way, because as you said, there is a spectrum in the republican party, and a spectrum in the democratic party as well. i wonder, is this a trap in
10:24 pm
some way that you see? the idea of trying to get him to go beyond that distinction? >> i think they would love to do that. the president could not have been more careful. he said he's not talking about all republicans. i served with him, we worked closely with republicans and john mccain. everyone knows he does not have his attitude about all republicans. it's a group of maga republicans who are willing to do anything to support the assault on the capital , subvert elections at the state level, deny the election results. this is what they are doing. they are antidemocratic and the ultimate symbol of our democracy is the president. he better call them out. >> you lost her seat to senator ron johnson in 2010. he, as you know, has been a pro trump republican. his office was implicated in an attempt to pass on the slate of fake electors to the vice president. i'm wondering what the feeling is on the ground and was found
10:25 pm
in. what are people saying about this attention being directed to your home state? >> we have had a lot of attention in the last few years. we do have people running our state legislature who are part of this movement. people that are election deniers. people willing to mess around with our state supreme court, and willing to try to limit the right to vote in our state. there have been bad trends and the sad thing is because of gerrymandering, even though we have a democratic governor and attorney general, the legislator is dominated by foreign people doing great damage to our state. >> you have a new book out, which i assume talks about part of those aspects, "the constitution in jeopardy." as you know i talked about, there's an ongoing effort to restrict voting rights, attempts at election subversion. you say there is even something worse and more serious to read about an article five.
10:26 pm
what is it? >> i hate to do it. people have a full plate of things to be worried about but this is the same crowd. people like john eastman, saint people, maga supporters who want a mechanism in the constitution that has never been used before. it is legal. 34 states can call a convention and congress has to call it. they want to have far right people chosen by conservative state legislators completely rewrite the constitution. they can essentially do anything, and what they want to do is restrict the power of the federal government to act on things, such as climate, the environment. they want to make income tax impossible and want to make sure we do not have the regulations we need to protect workers. they want to cut voting rights, civil rights, and they can do all of this if they are able to call this convention. we are trying to tell people, look, instead of being behind it, we have to be in there,
10:27 pm
trying to make sure this convention does not get called. there needs to be changes in the constitution, not by a far right matter supported minority, dominating that. that is a present threat and that is what the book is about to, that's what "the constitution in jeopardy" is about and people need to be aware. we need to make them aware. >> it's better to be and be proactive as opposed to reactive. we know what happens when we are. we often get flat-footed. nice speaking with you, thank you. the texas governor, greg abbott, is facing a lot of heat for his strategy of busing migrants outside of texas. chicago's mayor is saying that he is playing with peoples lives. >> governor abbott has confirmed what many of us have known. he is a man without morals. humanity, or shame. ou can...

new, tonight. another bus caring migrants leaving from el paso and heading to new york city. it is the sixth bus to make its way to the big apple. this, as governor greg abbott continues to come under fire from new york, and other city mayors, for his busing strategy. here is what chicago mayor, lori lightfoot, had to say about it, yesterday. >> governor abbott has racist and xenophobic practices of exposure that have amplified the challenges that many of these migrants have experience on their journey to find a safe place. governor abbott has confirmed, what unfortunately many of us had already known. that he is a man without morals, humanity, or shame. >> let's see what our guests think. commentators, maria cardona and alex stewart are with me.
10:33 pm
i want to begin with these two ladies, this podcast, hot mic's. let's begin with you. mayor lightfoot is very critical of what he is doing and had to say. he first announced this program in april, and since then, for the figures, they have a bust more than 9000 migrants from texas to sanctuary cities, like washington, d.c., new york, and now, chicago. obviously, he is making a political point, that he thinks they should all share what he perceives as a kind of burden of people who are migrating to his border state did is this the right way to go about doing that? >> when you look at the influx of immigrants into texas, he had no choice. as you mentioned, in april, they started operation lone star. what that did is it worked with many agencies to secure the border and stop the flow of not
10:34 pm
just people, but weapons and drugs into this country. part of that plan, to reduce the burden on these border towns, was to send these people to other cities. sanctuary cities, specifically, as you mentioned. new york, d.c., chicago. the goal was to alleviate some of the burden on these towns and to increase the safety of texas. i am shocked to see mayor lightfoot's reaction to this. the city of chicago has welcomed city ordinance, meaning they are a century city, meaning they welcome people into their city and will provide safe haven, as well as any necessary need for people in this situation. the fact that they are a sanctuary city , and she is put out by the fact that they are having to do that, that doesn't make sense. >> is mayor lightfoot put out by it? the fact that you have to embrace and welcome those who have migrated or is it the fact that she believes they are used
10:35 pm
as pawns? >> the fact that she believes greg abbott is using these migrants, these human beings as weapons, as pawns. as trash, to be gotten rid of, because he does not want to deal with it. that is the point of her comment and she is absolutely right. they are xenophobic, they are racist, they are absolutely devoid of any real solution, and it betrays that governor abbott not only has no idea how to solve this problem, but that he does not care about how to do it. he only cares about a political stunt that is costing texans $12 million and more every day. it is not making texas any safer, and he is betraying american values, which are that you should welcome migrants who are looking for a better life for themselves and their children, and doing it in a way that is orderly, and cooperative.
10:36 pm
look, if he had called these mayors and these governors and said, hey, we need to figure this out, can you help me? if he had worked with the federal government and state government, and guarantee you that these governors, as they are doing even now, would have said, yes. would have done it with open arms. he is doing this out of spite. he is not doing this out of any kind of grace and i take this issue personally. i am a migrant, an immigrant from columbia. many of these are from columbia, venezuela, places fleeing dictatorships and they want asylum. this is cruel and inhumane. >> i want to ask this question. one of the things that governor abbott is doing is he believes that there has not been a solution from the federal government. they don't like the immigration policy. there is fair criticism of our immigration policy. there has been a lot of absorption of the idea that many of these cities, mayors, would be able to be responsive and would immediately absorb and respond. do you believe that? we know there are some numbers.
10:37 pm
they are already stretched out in their budgets. you have new york, alone, accommodating 1000 new students. that is quite a figure. is governor abbott onto something? obviously, there is criticism, but they look, you said you want to welcome, here is an opportunity, you would not have responded to my calls. >> absolutely. the state of texas has already spent $4 billion in the last several years, to work and secure the border and bring these people in and provide the necessary housing and needs that they have. if there are any phone calls that need to be made, it is with these cities, new york, washington, d.c., chicago, outrage at having to do what they have promised to do. they need to be calling the president of the united states and asking him to secure the border and make sure that we do what we can to prevent these people coming into this country. that is a phone call that needs to be made. >> excuse me, on that point,
10:38 pm
what do you say to the fact that, you cannot deny that the idea of how governor abbott has gone about it is intended to be a bit of a calling of a political bluff, right? there is that notion, the coordination aside, there is something political in nature about what he is doing, right? they are not going to just any city or a border state. they are going to these democratic mayor run towns. is the politics and that undermining the message? >> he has acknowledged the fact that these cities, sanctuary cities, would be the first people, democratic mayors, would have an opportunity to call the president of the united states. his acknowledge the fact that if nothing else, we are calling attention to the crisis of the border and influx of people and while this might not be the customary way to do so, and yes, i have worked at a state government level, and
10:39 pm
situations like this normally, there is coordination on both sides, that did not happen in this case, but clearly, governor abbott's job, and gold, is to reduce the burden at the state level, call attention to the crisis of the border, and hope that these mayors that are receiving these people will take action and call attention to the president of united states and an effort to do more to secure the border and stop the influx. >> i will give you the last word, maria. >> that is just not a reality. greg abbott has no interest in solving this. let's be real. if he did have interest in solving this, he would call his friends in the republican congress and the senate to say, hey, you all need to get with democrats who have a solution in hand for comprehensive immigration reform, that would continue to secure the border and find a pathway to citizenship and away for these migrants to come in. we are a full employment. corporations and companies across the country are begging for workers. let's find a way to put these
10:40 pm
immigrants to work. that is why they came here. these governors, republican governors, have no interest in solving this. they only want to use this as political stunt and i think it will be hurtful for them in their party, hurtful for them, politically, it is betraying what they really think about immigrants. they think they are trash. >> we will see how this unfolds. if there is another factor, the word burden in the same paragraph, about human beings. i recognize politics, we are human beings, and we have to acknowledge that. thank you. nice seeing you. >> thank you. there is an intense match for serena williams in the third round of the u.s. open. we will go there, next. why hide your skin if dupixent has your moderate-to-severe eczema,
10:41 pm
or atopic dermatitis under control? hide my skin? not me. because dupixent targets a root cause of eczema, it helps heal your skin from within, keeping you one step ahead of it. hide my skin? not me. and for kids ages 6 months and up that means clearer skin, and noticeably less itch. with dupixent, you can change how their skin looks and feels. and that's the kind of change you notice. hide my skin? not me. serious allergic reactions can occur that can be severe. tell your doctor about new or worsening eye problems such as eye pain or vision changes, including blurred vision, joint aches and pain, or a parasitic infection. don't change or stop asthma medicines without talking to your doctor. when you help heal your skin from within, you can show more with less eczema. talk to your child's eczema specialist about dupixent, a breakthrough eczema treatment.

tennis superstar, icon, serena williams is forcing a decisive third set in tonight third round thing was match against her opponent, alja tomljanovic. to don riddell, who is there now. you are at flushing meadows. the match is almost over. bring us up to speed. what's going on?
10:45 pm
>> reporter: well, it could not be any more tight. it is tense and tight and nervous and dramatic and spectacular. the crowd is on their feet one moment, cheering for their hero, serena williams, the greatest of all time. nobody in that stadium, apart from alja tomljanovic and her crew, wants to see serena williams lose tonight. it means it's the end of her career. at times in that arena, the hushed anxiety of the crowd is absolutely palpable. we have seen serena williams play some extraordinary tennis. she was 5-3 up in the first set, and then things unraveled and she lost the set. she came out in the second, absolutely on fire. racing into a 4-0 lead, and then she tightened up. her opponent pulled it back and it went to a tiebreak, and at that point, serena williams played superbly.
10:46 pm
at a point in the match, when it was at its most tense, at a point where serena williams was not just playing for the set, but for the extension of her career, and she played superbly to force this match into a third set an early break means that she is up by a game in this third set, and we mustn't forget what is at stake. there are moments we think this is an amazing match and no compelling and absorbing and you take a step back for a moment and think, we could be watching the last minutes of his extraordinary career. now that serena williams is out of the doubles tournament, she and venus lost last night, that means that this is it. nobody here wants to see serena williams liz, tonight. we do not know how this match will play out. >> is exciting to even hear about i've been watching the crowd. they are in serena's favor. part of me wonders what it must be like for her opponent, what are they up against? many of these people, you know,
10:47 pm
have revered serena, the way your fans do. to play against her in this moment, it must be extraordinary. >> all credit to alja tomljanovic for making an amazing match of this. she is the world 46, best she's ever done in her major tournament is two quarterfinals at wimbledon. she has never been in an environment like this. it is like the colosseum. when this match is getting tight, when alja tomljanovic was serving, tennis is a respectful sport. it's a polite clap sport. you don't tend to cheer people's mistakes. has been happening tonight. it was tense in the second set. alja tomljanovic was trying to serve, and the whole crowd was on its feet, chanting serena's name. that is almost impossible to keep your composure in those moments. alja tomljanovic is not a player who is known for playing well in pressured situations, so she has done extraordinarily well to keep
10:48 pm
her composure tonight and make such an incredible match. >> kudos to her. i remember the first game, first match, when she was not favored. it was a moment when serena williams was a class act and put up her hand and silenced the crowd, silenced the billing, and knowing the power she had in that moment and using it in a way that showed incredible sportsmanship. i will keep you longer, let me go back in, go back in. tell us what's going on. i'm jealous you're there. we are following. run! we will follow and see what's happening, next. i would not change the station because it's cnn and i want you to watch, but i'm telling you, hearing his recitation of what happened? i'm at the edge of my seat. it's an amazing time. unfortunately, there are millions of americans, right now, under excessive heat warnings who are headed into the holiday weekend. even coastal cities that often
