12:01 am
mobilization plan. more than 1300 detained. >> and, how global markets are reacting to get another big interest rate hike by the u.s. federal reserve. lives, from cnn center, this is a cnn newsroom, with rosemary church. >> thanks for being with us. legal troubles are mounting for former u.s. president donald trump as he faces a new lawsuit and an unprecedented number of investigations. a federal appeals court dealt trump the latest blow, ruling the justice department can resume its criminal investigation, and review of classified documents, seized from his mar-a-lago home during an fbi search. that, coming hours after the new york attorney general announced a sweeping civil lawsuit against trump, three of his children
12:02 am
and the trump organization. they are accused of staggering fraud, deceiving lenders by inflating the value of assets. trump reacted swiftly, saying a disclaimer was included on load applications. >> is basically so subduing institution, you want to loan money, you go out make sure you're getting your own appraisers and lawyers and everything. these are banks that have the best lawyers in the world. this is the only -- by the way, they got paid back. just so you know. >> nobody -- >> i never had a default. we pay them back because we have a lot of cash. >> reporter: cnn's jessica schneider is tracking developments with more details from washington. >> claiming you you have money that you do not have does not amount to the art of the deal, it's the art of the steal.
12:03 am
>> reporter: letitia james announcing she is suing donald trump and his three oldest trump for lying to lenders and insurers for more than a decade, fraudulently invade inflating the value of their properties across the country. >> violated several state criminal laws, including falsifying business records, issuing false financial statements. insurance fraud. engaging in a conspiracy to commit each of these state law violations. >> reporter: james is seeking drastic remedies. her lawsuit demand trump and his family forfeit the nearly quarter billion dollars they have gained illegally over the years and she is looking to shut down trumps business dealings in new york. >> we are asking the court, among other things, to permanently bar mr. trump, donald trump jr., ivanka trump, eric trump, from serving as an officer or director of any corporation or similar entity,
12:04 am
registered or licensed in new york. >> reporter: new york's attorney general filed this 200+ page lawsuit after a three year long investigation. james also flagging what she said are possible crimes to federal investigators. >> we are referring those criminal violations that we have uncovered to the united states attorney for the southern district of new york, and the internal revenue service. >> reporter: james pointed to trump's fifth avenue apartment as an example of the fraud. trump allegedly claimed it was 30,000 square feet, when it was actually 11,000, valued at 327 million. >> to this date, no appointment apartment in new york city has ever sold for close to that amount. >> reporter: james said the motive was to entice banks to loan them more money and to allow trump and his companies to pay less in taxes. >> honestly, there is tax fraud going on here, given the massive inflation of these values.
12:05 am
>> reporter: trump has rebuffed jameses investigation over the last three years. >> my company is bigger, stronger, far greater assets. >> reporter: he lashed out on history social page after the lawsuit was filed, saying, she is a fraud who campaigned on a get trump platform. james, a democrat running for re-election this year saying trump cannot dismiss with her office uncovered out some sort of good faith mistake. >> white-collar financial crime is not a victimless crime. everyday people cannot lie to a bank, and if they did, the government would throw the book at them. why should this be any different? >> reporter: the new york attorney general is also alleging trump and his three oldest children live more than 200 times when it came to asset valuations on statements over the course of 10 years. of course, this is a civil case filed in new york state court. it would be up to other entities, like the manhattan das office, or the u.s. attorney's office in new york to determine whether criminal charges should be filed. jessica schneider, cnn, washington.
12:06 am
a former assistant u.s. attorney with the southern district of new york is weighing in on the lawsuit against trump, and whether the former president could possibly see any criminal charges. >> the civil case, which has been filed today, the standard of proof is much lower than the criminal case where you have to prove guilt beyond a reasonable doubt. don't forget, the das office has already looked at this, and basically passed on it as a criminal case. so the question is, why did they do that? the civil case has all kinds of other advantages. is got very detailed allegations here, and i can guarantee you that when donald trump went in for his deposition, and he was asked, i am sure, about every single allegation in there, and basically, what he did is, he took the fifth amendment. meaning, but a truthful answer to the question asked would
12:07 am
tend to incriminate him. so, that gives the ag's office a huge advantage. they have got evidence that it happened, and i have donald trump taking the fifth on every single aspect of this. >> stay with cnn as we continue to follow all the developments. the wife of u.s. supreme court justice clarence thomas will be questioned by the congressional panel looking into the capital insurrection. that is according to an attorney for ginni thomas, who says she has agreed to an interview with the investigators. she is expected to meet with them in the coming weeks. thomas, who is a conservative activist, has encouraged state lawmakers in arizona and wisconsin, to fight president biden's electoral win and texted with former white house chief of staff, mike meadows, about overturning the election on january 6th.
12:08 am
she has said that her professional life is separate from her husband's. vladimir putin's plan to draft 300,000 russians to support his war in ukraine is drawing ridicule and condemnation from around the world. even in russia, scores of protesters turned out in more than two dozen cities. an independent monitoring group reports of more than 1300 people have been detained. at several police stations in moscow, some have been drafted directly into the military as a part of putin's military mobilization plan. the russian president is backing referendums and scheduled for this weekend, at four ukrainian regions. many think it is a pretext for putin to declare war on what he will claim is russian territory. ukrainian president volodymyr zelenskyy used his video address at the u.n. general assembly to demand russia be stripped of its security council veto power, and punished for what it has done
12:09 am
to ukraine. >> a crime has been committed against ukraine, and we demand just punishment. the crime was committed against our state borders. the crime was committed against the lives of our people, and ukraine demands punishment for trying to steal our territory. punishment for the murders of thousands of people. >> u.s. president, joe biden, called russia's invasion of ukraine a shameless violation of the u.n. charter and blasted vladimir putin for making irresponsible nuclear threats. >> this war is about extinguishing ukraine's right to exist as a state, plain and simple. and ukraine's right to exist as a people. whoever you are, wherever you live, whatever you believe, that
12:10 am
should make your blood run cold. >> mr. biden also held his first in-person meeting with new british prime minister, liz truss. he agreed to continue economic and military support for ukraine, and reduce dependence on russian energy. we are following this developing story, the city council secretary in zaporizhzhia, ukraine, reports new schelling in the past few hours. he says civilian infrastructure has been destroyed, and there are casualties. cnn cannot independently verify the claims. be schelling comes just days before a planned referendum in the region, to vote on becoming a part of russia. we want to bring in clare sebastian, now, she joins us live from london, good morning to you, claire. what is the latest on these antiwar protest being held across russia?
12:11 am
split >> reporter: the numbers we're getting from this monitoring group which tracks these arresters that more than 1300 people have been arrested across 38 cities in russia. that number is edging up slightly in the past hour. it is heavily concentrated in moscow and st. petersburg. people there are more likely able to access independent media three vpns that have an understanding of what is happening in this war. but, i think the sense is that, as one person i spoke to in moscow put it to me, previously, they have been able to abstract this war from their everyday lives. with this announcement of mobilization even partial mobilization, it is arriving at their door. most people know someone who might fit the bill for this mobilization, you might have served in the military recently or have that kind of expertise. so, it is very worrying. many people are frankly in a panic. you can see that from the surge in flight bookings out of moscow , and the rise in prices you are seeing from flights to various countries that still
12:12 am
have direct flights out of russia. significant, as well, as you noted, the level of repression it seems we have not seen since the start of the war when russian crackdowns on protest happened. this news from obd info, people in at least four police stations in moscow are being handed prescription papers when they are arrested at these protests, drafted into the war. one person, according to this group, threatened with prosecution for refusing the draft. russia is in the process of tightening the law around this, changing its criminal code under the conditions of mobilization, they can sentence people to 15 years in prison for refusing the draft, or deserting. there is, now, a sense of panic in moscow, coupled with the climate of fear the kremlin has intensified throughout this war, and that is where we get these scenes on the streets. still relatively small numbers. >> right. claire, what more are you learning about the new
12:13 am
schelling in zaporizhzhia? >> the context here is that a zaporizhzhia is one of the regions, we can show you the map, one of the regions where russian backed authorities are planning to hold referenda on joining russia. you can see it there. zaporizhzhia is interesting because it is actually not fully occupied and the town of zaporizhzhia where we are hearing about these schelling's is not in russian hands yet they are still trying to annex it. what we know a, according to the zaporizhzhia city council secretary, is that there has been schelling, civil infrastructure has been destroyed, there are casualties. we are hearing reports from both pro-russian and pro- ukrainian media of explosions, but we cannot independently verify those claims. it doesn't seem this is true, that russia is putting pressure on this area ahead of these referenda, rosemary. >> clare sebastian joining us live from london, many thanks.
12:14 am
more than 250 p.o.w.s are free again, following a prisoner swap between ukraine and russia. the exchange included dozens of fighters, from the steel plant and mariupol, who later spoke remotely with president zelenskyy. they fought a grueling battle, while being holed up at the plant for weeks, before surrendering, in may. in return, 55 prisoners went from ukraine to russia. the swap also involved 10 international prisoners of war, seen here, arriving in saudi arabia, which helped broker the exchange. they include two americans, five british citizens, as well as a moroccan, croatian, and swedish national. the mother of one of the u.s. p.o.w.s told anderson cooper how she found out her son is free. >> i was reading a book to my little 3-year-old grandson, and i got a phone call that said
12:15 am
saudi arabia, and i thought, i didn't know anyone in saudi arabia. but these days, i'm just taking it anyway, so i took the call, and it was a woman at the embassy, the u.s. embassy there in saudi arabia, and she verified who i was, and then she said, i have your son standing right next to me, and he wants to speak to you. >> oh my gosh. >> and i went, alex? and i heard him say, hi, mama. it's me, your favorite child. which is a joke because he has other siblings and i said you just to anything to make that point and he said i'm free, and
12:16 am
i said what? and he said, i'm free. >> incredible. coming up, another aggressive move by the u.s. federal reserve, to tame inflation since wall street stumbling. a check of the global markets, when we come back.

12:21 am
dropping more than 500 points as investors feared, these rate increases could last longer than anticipated and the room move will now make credit cards, mortgages, and car loans even more expensive. let's check how markets in asia are reacting right now? kristi joins us live from hong kong. what are you seeing? >> is a down day for market across the world here in asia and europe as well after yet another jumbo rate hike by the u.s. federal reserve. we have been monitoring u.s. futures and will show up the live data for you which points to a lower open, when wall street opens in just a couple of hours from now. let's bring up a picture of the asia trading day, which is winding down trade at this hour and you can see in japan, the nikkei index slipped lower down about 6/10 of 1%, dropping .3%, the shanghai composite fell about 3/10 of 1%, hong kong's
12:22 am
things and is still open, meanwhile, we are still seeing more losses, more red arrows in europe. we will see how the european trading day is kicking off, another story of that downward pressure and the fact that that rate hike puts you down 1.4%. in paris, down about 1.5%. the zurich smi losing 1.4%. it was on wednesday when the federal reserve, as expected, hiked interest rates by three quarters of a percentage point for the third consecutive time and also signaled more tightening, more retakes to come , in a bid to battle inflation, which in the united states, is at a 40 year high. now, here in asia, traders were keeping an eye on another central-bank, the bank of japan which ended a meeting earlier today. while we are seeing this global rush to hike interest rates in economies across the world, not so in japan, where the doj announced they will maintain
12:23 am
ultra low interest rates because of that policy gap between the doj and the u.s. federal reserve that we are seeing the japanese currency, the young, be pushed down to its lowest level in 24 years. back to you. >> kristi luce, joining us from hong kong, many thanks. ryan patel joins me now, he is a senior fellow at the school of management at claremont graduate university. great to have you here in studio. how about that? >> great joining your. let's start with this. so, in an effort to bring down high inflation, the fed has hiked up interest rates, by three quarters of a percentage point. talk to us about -- of course said there will be more to come. what sort of impact will that likely has, particularly on jobs? >> if you think about what inflation does, right? prices keep rising, it is clear that the fed thinks it has not peaked. so, what happens is that jobs
12:24 am
from company's become a more expensive, loans go higher. they cannot keep up with revenues. what will happen? unemployment is going to rise. the question becomes, how high will it rise? we are in a low unemployment environment, so, but is going to cause close to 1 million jobs over the next 6 to 8 months should this keep rising, the question becomes, what does that due to the economy? is that enough to slow down? what is the fed trying to do? they are trying to slow down the economy, which will lead to lost jobs. >> right. of course, with that comes the very delicate balancing act, doesn't it? bring down high inflation. at the same time, you don't want to trigger a recession. so, what do they look at when they consider that calculation? >> when you and i spoke last time, some people felt we were at the peak and you and i spoke about it like, i don't think we were close. today is a testament to the fed stating that we are in it for
12:25 am
the long haul, they don't know when or if we will trigger a recession, but interest rates are not going anywhere. we will see these rates stay through next year, even if there is some kind of taper it will be limited. what does that mean? that means this environment we are facing, we will be there. the balancing act is to make sure that you don't over shelter person, food prices will stay there, so, some stability on how much of the increase we will see. we will not go backwards, unfortunately. i think they need to keep that aspect it >> the focus has been on what the fed is doing. what other mechanisms are there? >> on a global level, we have no more supply-chain issues, that could be one. the second piece is confidence. confidence in the economy's stability, allowing businesses and companies to provide clear guidance to wall street and investors. you see the market react crazy every other day, we don't need or want that, we want companies
12:26 am
to be able to choose to hire. the other aspect of it is that, news on the economy as a whole, talking about employment and about the cost of goods sold, and just having less likely labor shortage. >> right. of course, as we mentioned, the fed said there will be more interest rate hikes. so, we know there is another meeting coming up in november, will be six days before the midterm elections. what is likely to happen? they would not surely affect intermixed the decision to raise interest rates? >> if they don't i would be shocked. because, have a couple of more months in the rest of the quarter, but have a lot to go, and they increased it. you talk about being hawkish, jerome powell said last year, i think there is a possibility for having a soft landing spots. that is landing on a pillow.
12:27 am
at this point, the pillow is thrown away, let me land on grass or something. that is what we are looking at. for them not to do that in november would make it, maybe landing on asphalt in the future. >> which means markets will be on edge through to the end of the year. >> yesterday especially with quarter four and holiday spending people are watching retail holiday sales, that is an important quarter going into the beginning of 2023, that will set up how the first half of the year will look like if we are in a recession or not because that quarter will tell if people are spending money, what are they doing? to me, that will be a big tell for the rest of the year. >> ryan, thank you for coming in, even though it is depressing news. >> hopefully there will be some more going forward. >> thank you. qanon has been a regular fixture at trump rallies for years but now, supporters are cheering what they believe is an explicit endorsement by the former president, as he
12:28 am
considers another run for the white house. those details, just ahead. more heart-wrenching testimony from the sandy hook shooting victims families during the trial of conspiracy theorist alex jones.

12:32 am
welcome back, everyone. until now, donald trump has not openly embraced the mysterious group known as qanon, who peddle bizarre conspiracy theories about -- and often show at his rallies in large numbers. as the former president weighs another run for the white house, he is apparently signaling qanon that he is one of them. tony o'sullivan explains.
12:33 am
>> i don't know much about the movement, other than that i understand, they like me very much. >> reporter: former president trump has long flirted with qanon, but this meme he shared last week with a meme on his lapel is one of the most brazen endorsements of the conspiracy theory. >> president donald j trump put that on there, a guy wearing a q pen. >> reporter: post on this qanon radio show celebrating. >> that is the reason you all are here because you know the truth, you know who donald trump really is. you know who the fight is really about, and who the players are that actually want to destroy our country. >> reporter: on social media platform, social media followers showed the presidents post is a clear sign that he is with them and qanon. one post read, anyone denying that q is a legit operation affiliated with the trump administration is in major denial. >> another tweet, he seeks out
12:34 am
q people to retrace. >> what we have seen from trump is different from what we have seen in the past. to this, he would say he has heard of these qanon people, he believes them to be great patriots, now, the message is directly one-to-one, it is no longer ambiguous. >> certainly, we are concerned about the qanon phenomenon. >> the fbi has warned of the dangers of qanon and its potential to inspire violence. >> we have a potential candidate for the primacy of the united states legitimizing what is in efforts in essence occult. qanon has been associated with bizarre claims about child sacrifice and human sacrifice. >> i go to a lot of trump rallies, i see a lot of people
12:35 am
wearing qanon t-shirts. it doesn't mean they are all necessarily violent or dangerous, does it? >> it is not. that is the most difficult law enforcement scenario to deal with. you want to identify these hundreds of thousands of people. >> some of his speech was delivered in youngstown, ohio, to a backing track. >> we are a nation no longer listened or sparked respected around the world. we are a nation which in many ways has become a joke. >> reporter: about music you hear sound identical to a song associated with qanon. while it played, the crowd all pointed their fingers in unisom toward the sky. >> the imagery of everyone with heads bowed and finger pointed in the air showing the number one, this is where meme wars are most potent, because for some people, they were seeing that reflected in the qanon meme, where we go one, we go all. others were seeing america
12:36 am
first be reflected. >> reporter: the trump team denied the music was a qanon sound. >> to the people who were listening, that is a siren song. even an accident, it becomes the perception. it is easy to gadabout, saying no i do not support the scripts statement, that you would expect from a viable candidate. >> reporter: trump has never out right disavowed qanon. he is instead endorsing candidates that have echoed the conspiracy theory like mark fincham, the republican candidate for secretary of state in arizona. >> there are a lot of people involved in a pedophile network and distribution of children. unfortunately, there is a lot of elected officials that are involved in that. >> reporter: at a fundraiser this weekend, a performance of another qanon song, named after the qanon slogan, where we go one, we go all.
12:37 am
>> reporter: people close to trump, some of his aides have been saying that trump reposts these kind of qanon names, he is not thinking about qanon, but he sees these posts that praise him and he just assures them, he is not trying to signal to qanon folks but the reality, here, is that those people do view it as signals, and trump has been asked repeatedly to disavow qanon, to condemn or criticize it for two years now and he has refused. cnn, new york. right-wing conspiracy theorist alex jones is lashing out yet again over the lawsuit he is facing from victims families for cleaning the sandy hook school shooting was a hoax. jones has been spending time outside the courthouse, in connecticut, while testimony continues inside. he says he is not attending the trial partly because he has to do his radio show. he also slammed the judge because he claims she is
12:38 am
forcing him to say that he is guilty and a liar. >> this is a travesty of justice, and this judge is a tyrant. i was not wrong about the sandy hook on purpose, i questioned it, just like jussie smollett, just like wmds in iraq, just like off of tonkin. there have been a lot of events in history like wmds in iraq and i question major every major event we see. >> meantime, the mother of a six-year-old girl killed in the sandy hook massacre testified about the harassment her family has endured. jennifer hensel says her daughter is claimed by conspiracy theorist to be alive because she resembles a student who survived the shooting. hensel says the hoax theory makes it harder for her family to heal. >> it makes it hard to push that away. because, you have to push that away. the continual noise of all of
12:39 am
the people saying that we faked this, and that it never happened, and that she is still alive somewhere. god if she were, wouldn't that be amazing? >> the man who orchestrated the largest corruption scandal in u.s. naval history is now in police custody, in venezuela. the infamous former defense contractor known as fat leonard was arrested tuesday morning at the airport in caracas. in 2015, leonard francis pled guilty to bribery and fraud charges, and was set to be sentenced this month. u.s. marshals said he cut off his ankle monitor and escaped house arrest in san diego three weeks before his sentencing. venezuelan officials essay the u.s. government has started seedings with venezuela, hoping

the death of an iranian woman, while in police custody has sparked some of the biggest antigovernment protest that country has seen in years. public anger has now spread to more than a dozen cities. the government has responded with riot police, teargas, and blocking internet access in many places, at least eight protesters have been reported killed in the unrest. cnn's selma abdulaziz is covering this for us from london. she joins us now live. bissouma, these antigovernment protests are the largest in many years, they are not intensifying, with women and burning headscarves, and cutting their hair. what is the latest? >> many of these participative have gone into the night according to social media video
12:46 am
we cannot independently verify. what is concerning is that these protests are spreading for multiple cities and areas that are traditionally considered conservative areas. this will be the sixth the day of protest today, as people continue to take to the streets. what they are facing is a brutal crackdown by authorities. rights groups say several people have been killed already including a teenager. many others wounded, some losing and i to pellets being fired up and. we have seen a video showing water tanks, water cannons being mobilized on huge crowds. we have also seen huge acts of defiance. women cutting their hair in public, throwing the scarves into fires, people chanting down with the dictator. all of this starting several days ago with the death and custody of a 22-year-old, amini, detained for improperly wearing her heart headscarf. authorities say her death was an accident but her family has been outspoken, accusing the iranian government of killing her.
12:47 am
amini's father gave an interview where he said he saw bruising on his daughter's foot before she was buried. he said he simply does not trust the authorities there. what is important to remember that several factors are in place but this is not just about her, this is a time of an economic downturn in iran, people are struggling financially, and yet, the government has chosen, instead, to expand the morale of the police, to focus and drill down on these strict guidelines. you also have an ethnic issue here. amini's family is kurdish. so her families outspoken accusations against the government has further fueled this in the kurdish regions of iran. this is a serious threat for the government, which we continue to follow. that crackdown which seems to result in a shutdown of the internet, of course those videos continue to see spread.
