odessa. for the third time in ten days, the ukrainian authorities are deeply concerned about the disconnect of eight nuclear reactor at the zaporizhzhia nuclear power plant. which is 20 miles south of the city of 700,000 people, because they say that it has been disconnected, forcing the use of the backup power, the diesel generating system in order to cool the nuclear reactor. now, this is happened three times in the, past and every time it has happened the concerns over a nuclear meltdown increase. now, there are two un inspectors still on the site. they're supposed to be there permanently, or at least for the -- foreseeable future. so it will be interesting to see who they'll, blame or whether they go public with what's going on there. meanwhile, the ukrainian president zelenskyy has been claiming relatively limited success saying that it least two villages in the south, during the southern offensive here have been captured. and one village in the east.
8:57 pm
now, these villages frequently change hands fairly often during these campaigns but there's no doubt that, here in the south, the ukrainians counter offensive still means that they have the initiative using a lot of nato supplied tower powered to overwhelm superior numbers of artillery in men that the russians have here on the ground. sam kiley, cnn, in odessa. moscow has -- former journalists with 22 years in prison on charges of treason. we covered space and military was also an adviser to the head of the russian space agency. prosecutors, say he passed military and technical -- secrets to nato. critics say several star other being punished for independent reporting, with amnesty international calling his sentence, absurd. >> a suicide bombing has killed six people, including two russian embassy employees in afghanistan's capital city. russian officials say that it exploded near the -- embassy in kabul. security forces shot the bomber

this is cnn newsroom. coming up this hour, donald trump gets his special -- and slows the investigation into classified documents seized during an fbi search of his for the country club. liz truss will meet with queen elizabeth or she will perform as the next prime minister of britain. one suspect is dead, others still on the run after a deadly stabbing spree in canada.
9:01 pm
the criminal investigation into former president donald trump handled the government secrets is now on hold. the federal judge appointed by trump has granted his request for third-party attorney and as a special master to examine the thousands of documents seized from his mar-a-lago estate in august. sarah murray explains what this means for the government investigation. >> a judge today granted donald trump's request for a special master to review the materials the fbi seized from the extraordinary search at mar-a-lago. judge aileen cannon writing, because of trump's role as a former president, the stigma associated with the subject seizure is in a lead of its own. if you treatment based to any degree on property that ought to be returned would result in reputational harm of a decidedly different order of magnitude. and a major victory for trump, a third party attorney outside of government will soon be tasked with sifting through thousands of documents to identify personal items and
9:02 pm
materials that could be protected by attorney client or executive privilege. >> while it does delay things and slow down, which of course is bad for doj in their case, i think, at the end of the day, we are not going to see a lot of documents pulled by the special master. >> a judge pointing out some of the seized materials include taxes and accounting information. the ruling, allowing u.s. intelligence agencies to continue their national security damages that's went, but halting the justice department criminal review of its mar-a-lago home. >> i don't think it has a massive impact in the investigation in the long run. if i were the prosecutor working on this case, i'd say, let's just trench forward with a special master, to get through this as quickly as we can to move on. >> even as the judge acknowledge there is not any evidence of a callous disregard for trump's constitutional right, adding trump may not be entitled to return much of the seized property or to prevail in his anticipated claims of privilege. that inquiry remains for another day. meantime, trump speaking at his first rally since the fbi searched his resort last month. >> they rifled through the
9:03 pm
first ladies closet, drawers, and everything else. they even did a deep and ugly search of the room of my 16-year-old son. the fbi and the justice department had become vicious monsters, controlled by radical left scoundrels. >> the former president, slamming a lot enforcement, as high-ranking republicans offered explanations for why trump may have been hoarding cop secret information. >> you know, i have lived in the classified world most of my professional career. i personally wouldn't do that, but i'm not the president of the united states. >> allies like south carolina lindsey graham. >> what i've tried to do state the obvious. >> still clinic's comments, warning of rights in the streets of prosecutors charge the former president. >> we've had a standard set when it came to hillary clinton. if he does what she did with classified information and he gets prosecuted, and she doesn't, it will create a problem. >> when it comes to a special master, the justice department had previously asked the judge to rule in such a way where they could appeal her decision
9:04 pm
down the road. the justice department now is saying they are examining her ruling and considering what their next steps are. sarah murray, cnn, washington. >> los angeles now, jessica levinson is a professor at loyola law school and host of a passing judgment podcast. welcome back. >> thank you. >> in ruling in favor of the appointment of special master, the judge argued it was in part in the interest of ensuring the integrity of an orderly process and it is really allegations of bias and immediately. she cited the historic nature of the case. in other words, perceptions matter, and because this is a former president of the united states, you get special treatment that no one else does? >> this is a curious ruling on so many levels. i have to say, if one of my students wrote something like, this i would really be crestfallen. it reads more like a political conclusion in search of legal reasoning. there is something there in part of it that i think can withstand scrutiny. by and, large i think you
9:05 pm
pointed to one of the huge problems behind this order, which is the idea that we have to treat the former president as if he is above the law, as if he is entitled to special solicitude and she waxes poetic about the need for fairness and integrity, and she worries out loud about the stigma that could attached to the former president. that stigma is the same one that could attached to anybody who is part of a criminal investigation this way. taken to its logical conclusion, we should fail to continue criminal investigation because a stigma might attach. there's many parts of this where the department of justice has to appeal because you don't want this type of language to stand as legal precedent. >> judge was a trump appointee, so to the former attorney general and longtime trump ally bill barr, he was asked about the need for a special master, he told the new york times, i think it's a crock of.
9:06 pm
i don't think a special master is called for. that's a view shared by legal experts and democrats like joaquin castro. here he is. >> most defendants in this case would not have a special master appointed, and so this is, basically, an extra accommodation for former president of the united states. i do you think it was probably a delay tactic, by former president trump, and also, i don't think it's going to fundamentally change anything. >> we've heard that a lot. the ruling on monday may not change anything fundamentally. it's going to slow it all down. what about the undecideds yet to come? who will be the special master? what will be the scope of that review? how much time will they be given? >> so, all of those things, plus, i would say, you don't want a really like this to pick up on what i was saying earlier. you don't want a really like this to be able to be cited in other criminal cases. yes, it has repercussions for this investigation. let's remember that a delay is really in this, case a delay means that the department of
9:07 pm
justice cannot continue to question witnesses cannot continue to follow up with a documentary evidence, and delays matter. there's the old saying, justice delayed is justice denied. of course, we're looking at the electoral calendar. yes, the department of justice may be able to continue with its investigation eventually. but, it matters when you have to postpone because we know we are running up to the midterms, then we are running up to the presidential election. the former president is likely to say, again, he is going to be a candidate for the presidency. at which point, his claim will be, will the biden department of justice going after me because i am his opponent? it's still a delay that changes things. you ask a series of great questions. who can be the special master? judge cannon said, give me names by february, by friday, excuse me. the other issue here is, the special master needs guidance. there is no there there when it
9:08 pm
comes to this executive privilege claim. you can't, as a former president, say i am trying to prohibit an agency of the executive branch from obtaining these documents, and even if you could, you could never save it in the face of a criminal investigation. so, there are a lot of questions this special master is going to have to try and answer when there is no basis to try and rifle through these documents, looking for executive privilege. >> even before this legal win by trump, he was ramping up the attacks on the justice department and the fbi over the weekend. here he is. >> the fbi and the justice department have become vicious monsters, controlled by radical left scoundrels, lawyers, and the media who tell them what to do, you people, right there, and when to do it. they are trying to silence me and, more importantly, they are trying to silence you. we will not be silenced.
9:09 pm
>> i take at the department of justice next week. on monday, trump called for the 2020 election to be returned by the fbi and the doj because the fbi and doj was quoted -- phone rigging stem. is there a concern that as long as this takes, the more time trump has to turn up his face with false claims and those predictions about outbreaks, if he's aggressive, becomes self fulfilling prophecy's? >> i think there is a real danger here, in the sense we have seen his defence. his defense has been to try and throw a bunch of things that the wall and see what sticks. the longer he has before the investigation continues. the worse it is for the rule of law, not for people who oppose trump, or who criticize trump. for the rule of law, for americans who care about living in a society, where lot enforcement officers can obtain a search warrant, again, finding probable cause a crime was committed, and get the
9:10 pm
documents they seized at that place which happens to be the residents of the former president, and continued with their investigation. we have seen this ever-changing defense from the former president that will just continue. the documents were planted. oh, actually, they are unclassified. oh, actually, they are privilege. it doesn't make any sense. politically, it might be a winner for members of his base, and i think that's what matters to him. >> yeah, jessica, thanks for being with us. jessica levinson in los angeles. >> thank you. ♪ ♪ ♪ >> for those counties, where we are two months from the u.s. midterm elections, and president joe biden is hitting the road to help democrats hold on to control of congress. he campaigned in the battleground states of wisconsin and pennsylvania on monday, charting his recent legislative winds and economic accomplishments. mr. biden is making it clear he wants voters to see the elections of the choice between
9:11 pm
his leadership and the extremism of donald trump and his supporters. >> extreme maga republicans don't just threaten our personal rights and our economic security, they embrace political violence. i am not talking all republicans, i'm talking about these extreme maga republicans. think about it, think about it. the definition of democracy is you accept the world the people who honestly count in it. these guys don't do it. >> more now from cnn's jeff zeleny reporting in from just outside of pittsburgh, pennsylvania. >> president biden kicking off the fall election season with two labor day rallies in wisconsin and pennsylvania. those are the two states democrats have their eyes on, trying to win back republican seats in the u.s. senate. president biden clearly was making a direct appeal to some independent voters and democrats to otherize draw a sharp contrast with republicans. he was touting his accomplishments on the economy and other legislative
9:12 pm
achievements. he talked specifically about what he believes president trump and the maga republicans as he calls them are bad for the country. >> one of the things that was clear to me is that this new group headed by the former president, the former defeated president, we found ourselves in a situation where we are really going to look forward to look backwards. it's clear which way he wants to look. it's clear which way the new maga republicans are. they are extreme. democracies is really at stake. >> president biden moderating his tone there. for what he's been doing in recent days really calling out trump supporters. of course, he's not trying to reach out to them. they are true believers in the trump brand. he is trying to reach out to some voters who may be open to, at least, supporting some democrats or some independents as well. so, that clearly is the challenge for democrats, certainly any presidents political party faces headwinds in a historic midterm election. there is no doubt. democrats believe they have
9:13 pm
advantages largely because donald trump is back center stage. that, of course, turns of so many voters in the middle and on the left. so, now, and weeks left before those midterm elections, the president trying to rally democrats, his agenda for the rest of his term depends upon it. jeff zeleny, cnn, west mifflin, pennsylvania. >> still to come on cnn, a new leader for britain's conservative ruling party, and an audience with queen elizabeth. a new prime minister for the country. look at major challenges she will face and her new job. a closer look at politics, her convictions, her beliefs, and how they've all changed over the years. housewives... whoops. i just want to talk! get your tv together. call 1-800-directv to save up to $120. mymy most important kitchen tool? my brain. so i choose neuriva plus. unlike some others, neuriva plus is a multitasker supporting 6 key indicators of brain health.

9:23 pm
domestic challenges from energy security, better infrastructure, the climate crisis, all require either expansion of governor spending, increased regulation, or both. which liz truss is opposed to. >> it's a remarkable situation. it's a complete disconnect between what she articulated during the leadership race, and the promises she made to those who would ultimately give her the victory as party leader, and therefore become prime minister, and the reality is on the ground. you only have to look across the channel at the measures that the french government has taken with nationalizing the energy company, putting caps on electricity prices, and freezing gas prices, and so on, to realize that that is the path forward at this juncture, and anything short of that is really just a recipe for disaster. that's going to be interesting to see how she goes about reconciling those two without appearing to be disingenuous, of people who put her in power, john. >> the most pressing issue right now, in the, okay is the
9:24 pm
energy bills. in a few weeks, they will double, triple by january, and energy companies making record profits, liz truss rolled out attacks on those windfall profits. in the past, she rolled out a freeze on energy bills. over the weekend, she made this promise. here she is. >> what i can say is that, if i am elected as prime minister, within one week, i will make sure there is an announcement on how we are going to deal with the issue of energy bills and of long term supply to put this country on the right footing for winter. so -- that's vital. >> now, liz truss said to be in favor of a freeze on energy costs as well as governing assistance for some families, a plan which will cost hundreds of millions of pounds, proposing handouts for the leadership. not only does she have to convince the public, but also skeptical tory mps have a need for handouts. she does this without any political capital. she has no mandate from winning
9:25 pm
an election. >> she doesn't. ultimately, i see her current position as being nothing but an audition, really, for the job as prime minister. a conservative party holds on to the substantial majority. they will not think twice as they did with boris johnson of removing her if the circumstances are not such, and not placing them, even ahead of a general election. she somehow, as i said, has to find a way of balancing, addressing the real issues and concerns, which were not there during the campaign. she came across as very cold, locked empathy, attributed most of the ills in uk to immigration or to cultural or us, and now she find herself having to go back on those and feel with some very real issues, issues that are completely different to the kind of ideological brexit like issues that brought boris johnson to power. these are real world issues with energy, cost of living, the kinds of things that make-or-break a prime minister, and determine the outcome of a general election, john.
9:26 pm
>> the underlying problem here, the fact she takes over as prime minister, on the back of 80,000 votes of card carrying members of the conservative party who were older, richer, and whiter than most of the country. >> i think that, to me, as one of the most disturbing aspects about this, the sort of 12-year period of conservative party leadership in which, essentially, with the majority, that they've held, especially since boris johnson came in, they have been able to do whatever it is they had like, and exactly, as you said, you have this very small minority, ultimately determining the fate of the country. i think that, this time around, the electoral map that boris johnson is able to appeal to with just electoral fatigue in the light of brexit has gone away now, and it's an uphill struggle for them. this is a real opportunity now, i think, for the opposition to sort of bridge their divides, and try to map out some kind of alternative so there is a real genuine contest going into the
9:27 pm
next general election. ultimately, that's going to be a two-year period in which we see how all of this unfolds. >> the story of the opposition and labor opposition, it's another one altogether for another day. dominic, thank you for being with us, we appreciate it, thank you. >> thank you, john. >> please stay with cnn for the developments. our special coverage of britain's next prime minister starts at 7 am in london, 2 pm in hong kong. when we come back, police in canada asking for assistance information that mike -- surviving suspect and a deadly mass stabbing attack after the other suspect was found dead. details on the manhunt when we return.
