the gates of buckingham palace. our team is on the ground covering all aspects of this story. i begin at the palace. how are people there tonight? >> reporter: i think this was the day, erin, that reality started to hit. not just for the british people. not just for king charles. he came not knowing how the public would receive him. his subjects. and he was reassured, i think, to hear the chants of "god save the king." in a pre recorded address to the nation, the commonwealth, king charles iii renewed the pledge made by his mother more than 75 years ago. speaking for the first time as sovereign, charlie reached out to all religions and creeds. he payed a glowing tribute to wife camilla is that bestowed his former title, prince of wales, on his son william making kate the princess of wales.

he expressed his love, most powerfully and holding back tears, he addressed his mother directly. >> to my darling mama, as you begin your last great journey to join my dear late papa, i want simply to say this. thank you. thank you for your love and devotion to our family and to the family of nations you have served so diligently all these years. may flights of angels sing you to your rest. >> reporter: throughout the day on 40, bells tolled, flags lowered, and guns saluted. paying respects to the life and legacy of queen elizabeth ii.

the u.k.'s newly appointed prime minister liz truss offered newly aanointed king charles the support of an unusually quiet and somber parliament. >> and crowning jewels, our nation in jewels, in that spirit, i say god save the king. >> reporter: the king greeted well wishers to a chorus of the national anthem. ♪ god save our gracious king ♪ >> reporter: he retired to buckingham palace where he held his first audience with the prime minister, and for the first time, the royal standard flew above in his name. the council will meet on

saturday to formally proclaim charles as the new sovereign, having declared his loyalty to parliament and the church of england. whether the monarchy will emerge strengthened from the handover remains to be seen but the initial signs appear positive. some feared that charles would be a meddling king. he reassured those saying he would be an apolitical king saying whatever -- it will no longer be possible for me to give so much of my time and energies to the charities and issues which i care so deeply. he will let them go in public service as his mother did. >> thank you so much. let's go to balmoral now, and the castle in scotland. that is where the queen died. we still don't know exactly when the queen's funeral will be held. what do we know about the the pomp and circumstance over these next days of mourning?

>> reporter: well, perhaps a very significant event, both you and max have mentioned, the ascension council that meets tomorrow, saturday. this will be the first time in its history ever televised so the people in the country have yet to see the council going through the formal process of king charles being made king charles. there will be that proclamation afterwards by an official in the position for the king of arms. but king charles will have serious and significant meetings. the archbishop of canterbury at the end of the day, the head of the church of england. so already king charles beginning the key steps in that process of becoming king and taking over all those responsibilities. there will be gun salutes through the day around the whole country. he haddinboro college, as well as hyde park in london.

big gun salutes for the queen there. but as far as the queen and lying in state, and what happens to her in the coming days. in a few days she will go to edinburgh. she will be at the seat of the monarch in scotland. then to a cathedral. st. charles cathedral. there will be a service there. and after that, a few days from now, her body will be taken to london where she is expected to lie in state. and then of course, after that, the funeral. but all the details on these specific details still being worked out. >> thank you very much. and i want to go to kate williams now, our royal commentator at the university of london, and the making of young e-elizabeth. and author of brothers and wives, inside the private lives of william, kate, harry and meghan. you saw the moment i played

there today where charles said, this is the moment he's been dreading when he was speaking to the prime minister, liz truss. and he gave that speech that was incredibly emotional. frankly more than many of us have really ever seen him in terms of how he saw his heart a bit when he honored his mama and his papa. what did you make of him today? >> it was such an emotional speech. not just as a monarch, her sense of duty and service which he emphasized but as a mother. he talk about how warm her affection, her ability to see the good in people, and list final words which you were playing there when he was really on the brink of tears. he was wishing her a final journey on, her journey to rest with his beloved father. thank you to my beloved mama. we've heard him call her mommy

before. it was a tribute of the heart. and we haven't seen that before. we've seen his sincerity, his deep thinking. we've seen that he's a reflective man but we haven't seen this emotion and that will stand him in good stead. the emotion he showed to the crowd today when he was out there and the emotion to the prime minister. how he was overwhelmed with the messages of sympathy that he's received, not just from british people but from all over the world. sharing with the prime minister, in his televised address. he had his finger on it. there was such a sense of shock and pain and grief. as the queen said, grief is the price we pay for love and charles is really showing. she was not just a queen. she was his beloved mother. >> when you saw emotion from

him, which so few have ever seen. there was a welcoming nature about him. a person of the people which is different than what many of us have seen. one woman gave him a kiss on the cheek. there was that tangible touching of people. touching their hands. he is hours away from formally being declared king. for the first time, we'll see this televised before. what will this moment mean? >> well, i think it is interesting. during the everheard conversation with liz truss, he said this is the moment we've been dreading but i have to try to keep everything going. and i think that's what he's faced with. the queen had tremendous well of affection for the british people. as a member of the family, there was a study a few years ago that showed that as many as one-third

of the british people would regularly dream about the queen and she was revered as a kindly older woman who continued to complain about her children, understandably. charles has always been considered, unfortunately, an aloof quality. he's never really had a connection with the british people. and he has to forge it. and i think he went a long way. i agree that this was a great speech. and he's going out to greet the people. the mourners who gave their respects outside buckingham palace. a very shrewd thing to do, in addition to being genuinely a warm thing. >> 85% of people in the u.k. were born during elizabeth's 70-year rule. to state the obvious, that means she's beloved among generations that have nothing else in common. here's elton john and harry styles. world famous british singers, both last night.

>> i'm 75. she's been with me all my life. i feel very sad that she won't be with me anymore. i'm glad she's at peace. i'm glad she's at rest. and she deserves it. she's worked bloody hard. >> queen elizabeth ii. please join me in a round of applause for 70 years of service. >> she's unique in this. her ability to transcend generations with this fondness and care that they feel for her. to transcend politics. how did she do that in. >> she is unique. to transcend generations. so few of us remember when she wasn't on the throne. only 150,000 people in britain are older than 95. nearly everyone was born in her lifetime. 1926 when she was born. women didn't even, not all of them, had the right to vote. she was someone who had the love of the old and the middle age

and the young and children. so many children won over by her wonderful little interaction with paddington earlier this year. and the sense of fun and enjoyment and the love that she had with the british people. amazing to think ten years ago, we thought she was jumping out of a helicopter over the olympics. >> amazing. >> christopher, king charlie talked about his children as well, of course, bequeathing the titles of prince and princess of wales. harry and meghan, express my love as they are building their life overseas. a different commentary. what did you read into that? >> i think it was remarkable that he wants all hands on deck now. he needs their support. i think it was extending an olive branch clearly to harry and meghan. whether or not they take it, that's another question.

in william, we're looking at a transitional monarch. his reign almost certainly will not be very long. not compared to his mother's. the future of the monarchy will rest on the shoulders of william and kate. and they've proven they can handle the job. and i'm a huge ad playerer of kate in particular. she's risen to the occasion in a spectacular way. >> thank you both very much. next, i'll speak to a royal photographer, capturing some of the most iconic images. plus, king charles not afraid to speak his mind on many issues to take a stand on things like the environment, company, and climate change. can that all change? we'll learn tonight had a the justice department and the trump team want as special master in the classified document investigation.

tonight? >> reporter: well, thousands of people have been here to express a deep sense of loss. and the queen spoke about grief many times during her reign. she once said that grief is the price we pay for love. and look at all the love you can see here. so many flowers have been laid out, all around buckingham palace's gates. beautiful letters. i've seen one here. dear king charles. i'm so sorry you're sad because queen elizabeth ii died. i watched the queen with paddington bear on my mom's phone. good luck as king. you'll remember that wonderful clip during the platinum jubilee earlier this year. i think today is quite trans transitional. i think we've had a pivotal point. this morning when i was here, people felt very numb with their grief and through the day, people are not looking back at her past but very much looking forward to the future with king

charles. particularly as he greeted people at buckingham palace today. i would love to introduce you to my guests. we have anna michelle. it is very dark hear. tell me why you feel it is important to come to the gates to pay your respects. >> i think difficult to say. the feeling throughout the country is pretty palpable. you can feel it in your bones. no more than when you come somewhere like this to get the feeling from everybody else. yeah, it's a sadness. it is hope for the future. let's hope that is an amazing future. certainly king charles today, made a really good representation of himself. i thought it was absolutely brilliant. and we just want to come down. >> and be a part of it. witness it. it is a big moment in history.

and everything will change. there will be a lot of change and i'm sure change for the better. >> thank you very much. lovely to he sue you. have a great rest of your evening. >> reporter: we're going to have this for days now. and i think we'll see lots of grief for her majesty, queen elizabeth. but we'll also see so much love and hope for king charles. back to you, erin. >> thank you so much. "outfront" now, chris jackson getting images as the royal photographer who covered her for nearly two decades. and author of elizabeth, queen for our time. you've taken so many portraits of queen elizabeth over the years. i love her smile here with her iconic red box. the official portrait for the last anniversary that she celebrated for her husband. this one with prince phillip was back in 2020.

what was it like photographing the queen? >> you know, it sounds like a cliche but she was iconic. and every time i had the opportunity it was extremely special. in the latter years, obviously, with mobility issues, much less frequent engagements. wasn't as often. but every time i did get the chance, it was very special. a huge privilege. now, the one you're talking about with the red box, that was taken earlier this year to commemorate her day and to celebrate the start of the platinum jubilee. it was very fortunate that we got to see the queen. that particular photo where she is working on her red box, and it for me it really sums up how she was working to the very end. she was so committed to that role. she got that red box every day of the year, apart from christmas and easter.

and i think it really summed up for me her commitment to her duty and her role. it was incredibly special to see that firsthand. >> i know you shared some other photos that you enjoyed which do show her as a human, and the queen laughing alongside her son now king charlie iii. what will you remember most about her? >> i think there are so many facets to the queen. i mentioned her dedication to duty. that was so evident. she worked so hard. for a 96-year-old, it was incredible. to see that first hand, it was very special. one of her passions was horses. and they just formed such a huge part of her life. seeing her at places like royal ascot. given the best horse at the age of 4, and since then, her love

of breeding and racing horses was evident. and that particular photo you're talking about where her horse estimate got across the finish line to win the gold. the first in 207 years to win that trophy. it was an incredible moment. the crowd was behind her. and you see when she was presented with it. she actually lit up. that was so special. >> and you are covering the transition closely. you see prince charles next to her. in particular photo. you were the one who captured the rainbow that we talked about yesterday, that was there as her death was announced. you were in london today. prince charles first arrived at buckingham palace and you were there. i know you photographed him more than any other member of the royal family. what do you expect it will be like now covering him? >> yes, i spent a huge amount of

time with the prince of wales. he always brought a lot of energy to his engagements. things will change. now he is the king. but i think he will continue with his dedication to duty. he certainly traveled around the world, met many people. he's a man of experience. he has a huge depth of knowledge on different subjects. and this is essentially the role he was born to take on. so i think i will continue to capture images of him, with camilla at buckingham palace. his first day as king charles. what you do as a royal photographer, you capture the historic moments. and it felt like a special moment. >> thank you for sharing all your thoughts with me. >> no problem. thank you so much. next, king charlie defining today how he will rule after his

mother's death. how will his strict and even severe upbringing affect his reign? and classified documents at mar-a-lago. after a long week of telling people how liberty mutual customizes yourur car insurance so you only pay fofor what you need. showtime. whoo! i'm on fire tonight.

new tonight, king charles says his new role will require him to step back from his advocacy work. that would be a significant change for charles. he's spent many years taking on business and the issue of climate change and fighting for environmental preservation. >> gone on for years thinking about the long term in relation to the environmental damage, climate change, everything else. we don't want to hand on any increasingly dysfunctional world to our grandchildren. and i don't want to be confronted by my future grandchild. why didn't you do something? >> charles had opinions and he made them very clear on very hot button topics. he spent a lot of time and advocacy work.

his outspokenness is a reality. he was just 3 when his mother became queen and he became heir apparent. this changed the entire trajectory of his life. it was at times a lonely childhood. a newly coronated queen elizabeth. charles joined the royal navy at age 22 and qualified as a helicopter pilot. he completed his military service and five years later he married princess diana. a marriage that of course was the subject of intense global fascination. less than a year later their son william was born and harry followed two years after that. but it was no fairytale. love was missing and there was the tragedy that rimmed his sons' lives apart. princess diana's death in 1997 in the car accident. charles did of course marry the long time love of his life, camilla parker bowles. and he found life beyond that. he defined himself and found purpose in those causes.

when asked a few years ago whether his outspoken advocacy would continue when he became king, charles replied, no, it won't. i'm not that stupid. host of cnn's quest means business, richard, the quote is, no, it won't. i'm not that stupid. these are not just causes. these are passioned for him. can he really drop these things he cares about? the environment, things he's spent decades fighting for? >> a lot of the things he's talked about have become mainstream. so to the extent that he can still prosecute the climate change and the environment, that will be true. but i think the real test is, can he keep his mouth quiet? can he shut up? you played the clips of charles from interviews. the queen never gave an interview in 70 years. you were even not supposed to listen and eavesdrop when she was talking to people.

i interviewed charles just a area or two ago on a topic of great importance, the environment, and how business could play a role within that. and charles was put up for an interview and we the a remote interview on that subject. you're looking at the pictures of it. there will not be any of this in the future. there can't be. it is just not part of the job. >> well, it's interesting. by the way, interesting that his son really is also, we hear from him very little. i'm referring to william. king charles, sorry, i'll getting used to the name. knows the role and the responsibilities will be different. he's made that very clear. but how do you see him changing? we saw an emotional side of him today. we've seen his outspokenness before. how do you see him changing, richard? >> there are two aspects of what he said tonight that i paid very close attention to. he said, i hold in the greatest

almost the traditions, freedoms of our unique history and system of parliamentary government. and then he went on to say, i will pledge myself to uphold the constitutional principles. now, this is basically telling everybody, don't get any ideas that i'm going to start writing letters to ministers, to cabinet ministers, trying to interfere like i have done in the past. he's saying clearly to the people who will now turn to him and say, you no longer are prince charles, the influencer. you're the monarch and your role is to advise, to warn and to be consulted, as was put by a constitutional scholar. it is not to interfere. >> you joined last night from singapore. you got on a plane and went home. hear you are for the first time in your life. home. and there's no queen elizabeth ii for the first time in your existence. what did it feel like to come

home? >> sad. i teared up driving on the a-40, the motor way into central london. because every massive billboard, every electronic billboard has an image of the queen. there is a mutedness, even at the airport. there is a muted feeling in the country. we know we have to get on with it and charles has been part of my life all the way through as well. it is not like a complete stranger is coming through the back door. but the reality, it just feels good to be home. >> richard, thank you so much. appreciate it. next, the deadline is hours away for the department of justice and team trump to submit candidates for special master in this now battle over the classified documents seized from mar-a-lago. and ukraine making huge gains. there is a counter offensive and ukraine has moved big time.

we're quickly approaching a deadline for crucial filings in the case involving classified documents at mar-a-lago. at 7:40 eastern, they have to submit their lists with proposed candidates and guidelines for a special master. so you're going to get two

lists. this comes amid the doj's appeal yesterday of the ruling that approved a special master. that also, and this is important, this is at the heart of the whole thing, it halted the fbi review of documents. cara, let's start here. any time in the next minutes, certainly in the next few hours, we'll get these two lists or i don't know they'll be. there may be just one name from the doj from team trump. once these are filed, what happens then? >> the judge said once the proposals are in, she will rule expeditiously on this. it will be laci, the outlines of what the duties should be as well as the limitations. what the schedule will be and who will pay for it. there was this wrinkle with the doj filing their notice of appeal yesterday and asking for a stay. and asking to consider this doj request.

doj has been asked to review the classified materials. about 100 documents out of the 11,000 pages from mar-a-lago. they're asking, saying the doj says it is of national security importance and important to the criminal investigation as well as the intel assessment. they stay fbi has to be involved in the intel assessment of this. and specifically they point to the 40 some folders that were empty. the doj says they need to be able to review whether any documents were lost or compromise that had could have been in the folders. she's officially giving trump's team until monday at 10:00 a.m. to file their formal response. that'll will be the legal arguments. the clock is ticking. they said if the judge doesn't grant access by thursday, that they will appeal it to the 11th circuit. a former special counsel at the

defense department. so we're going to get these two lists. there could be one name on them. a judge has discretion to pickful one would presume there may be an overlap between the two. no negotiation. she has full discretion. so what is the top thing you'll be looking at when we get these two lists, sometimes in these next couple hours? >> so one is who is on the list? are they people we think could get quick access to security clearances if in fact the special master handles classified material. and the other part is that they're supposed to come with not just the list of name but the duties for the special master. and that is key. i assume the justice department might say, if the special master deems any material to be subject to executive privilege, then the special master should send the materials to the archives. and will that would be a smart move on their part. that might be in the submission tonight. they'll have to see how they map out the different duties. >> then she will pick the person

and the guidelines. in her discretion. >> absolutely. so this list thing is going ahead. the justice department's appeal went through about the special master. their access to the documents. you said how they did it was a master stroke. how come? >> they focus the mind on the strongest legal position. let focus on the 100 documents, just a little over 100 documents that have classified markings. there is no way that those are trump's property. that's the government's property. just for those, we've got to take them out of the picture. that's the ones that he doesn't have any right to. that's the ones -- >> there is no ruling on executive privilege. you can't have executive privilege over classified documents. >> and then the second thing is they've given her an out. they've said, look, we're now putting front and center the national security risk if you keep your order in place. it will impede the ability for the intelligence community and impede the ability for the government to find if there were other classified documents out

there in the wild. but they've begin her an out. she can say new information. thank you. i didn't have that information before. i will amend my mother. >> right, right. and hanging out in the wild. with the banner on them but there is nothing in them. what do you think she'll do here? >> it there is a good likelihood she will team what they've begin to herful i think she otherwise phases an immediate overturn by the court of appeals and that's very embarrassing for a judge. so they've given her a nice out. she can take the classified material out of the picture and still go on with the rest of the special master, dealing with attorney client privilege and thing like that. >> all right. thank you very much. we will see what she does, or what they give her. as i am, in these next few hours, the deadline is mid eastern. next, president zelenskyy said that offensive actions by armed forces have liberated more than 30 towns around kharkiv. there is been a huge shift here.

"out front" now, a former u.s. army officer. sudan, i'm glad to have you back. this is a significant moment and one that a lot of people have sort of given up hope for. but there has been a major move by ukrainian forces into russian occupied territory in ukraine. we've got new video of ukrainian forces planting a flag in a town that had been under russian control for six months. six months the people there lived under russian control. and now the ukrainians are l liberalizing it. >> i think they're extremely confident. i think the commander is confident they will win the war.

they are turning the tide on the war here. these are two tactical victories, but they symbolize a big turning point in the war. they're very confident but this will also carry on. >> it's not a blitzkrieg going back out. >> as long as the west continues to sustain them, they will continue to fight. it will go past 2023, that's coming from the commander, that they will fight that long to get rid of the russians. >> i saw this week that he had written about the war, first directly claiming responsibility for those. we knew they had used missile strikes against crimea, that's what we did and we did it on the airfield, and we did it. and he said there's going to be a lot more of that, of ukrainians striking russian territory, which was a significant thing to say directly. but he said, we can't do it without missiles that go farther than the ones we have. he's asking specifically for u.s. missiles that can go as far as 190 miles. that would be a big change from

what they have now. you've met with general milley, you've been trying to advocate for what they need. is the u.s. going to give ukraine those longer range missiles or no this. >> i think that's a political decision not a military decision. the military would give them what they need. antony blinken was there today and the state department has slowly increased the need. i think they need the weapon fired out of the himars launcher they have. they need dual purpose conventional munitions. we're giving them the wrong artillery shell. we're giving them artillery shell we would not give them our own troops the in support of a fight against russia. >> i want to talk to you about that because the ammunition is crucial. and people may not realize this could be the heart and soul of the entire conflict at this point. the u.s. has provided ammunition, of course. without our ammunition, they would be nowhere. but you are saying they need a different type of ammunition,

which is often referred to as a cluster munition. the u.s. has not provided that. you get the damage far more widespread -- >> that's correct. >> -- when you give them more fancy ammunition, for lack of a better word. it drops down and it's going to go out. the one we have now drops down and stays down. >> exactly. >> this is referred to often as a cluster munition, which people view as a banned thing that can hurt civilians. why should we be giving it to them? >> the way we prepared europe for 50 years is to use this weapon. it's an artillery weapon that explodes in the area. 88 bomb lets come out and it covers a meter area. they're not going to target their own civilians. so, it's the ideal weapon. right now we're using a high explosive, a single round that goes and lands and either hits there on the ground or explodes in the air, one round. this other round, ploeds in the

air -- >> and gets 88 spots. >> 88. this is a game changer. this is five to 15 times more lethal. so, we're giving them something we would never give our troops in our defense. and i think it's the moral imperative to give them the most lethal fire power. this is an artillery tool. most people don't realize, this war, it's a 1,200-mile front, which basically is here in new york to miami. 1,200 miles of artillery. the ukrainians only have a cup hundred artillery tubes. the wugs russians have thousands. this can't go on forever from a human standpoint. they can't sustain that. if we give them this, this is a game changer. congress needs to bring together all of our best war fighters and ask how much of a game changer it would be and make this a public debate about dpism. >> it's something we don't hear enough about and it's a conversation that needs to happen. thank you very much for making sure everyone understands that this is on the table. >> thank you, erin, and i hope we can see american leadership

lead from the front, give them the most lethal aid they need. >> all right. next, relief from the heat is coming to california, but it threatens to bring a whole other set of extreme weather problems.
