tv   Don Lemon Tonight  CNN  September 23, 2022 11:00pm-12:00am PDT

11:00 pm
jury has no choice but to basically find him guilty on those charges. >> use other sources in the trump world. >> north carolina he had a rally for ted but for u.s. senate down there, using this as part of his speech to the crowd, the witchhunt, the rafters again, he has effectively done this since he started. >> that's lisa's been public but behind the scenes? >> will behind the scenes i think that it is not just him, there's a whole world of people around him were also obvious the -- if our were one of his lawyers dealing with the mar-a- lago issue right now i guess i'd be worried, because some of them are on the hook for some the statements that were made, so i'm sure it is anxiety inducing for a lot of them in on top of everything else, they're watching politically, if you look at the national polls have come out lately, even though his base remain
11:01 pm
solid, you can see incremental degradation with the general electric. losing to joe biden, and i'm sure republicans will come along and make that point in the primary. >> and was,, you seen a bad week before and managed to publicly at least in the court of public opinion he has been able to skirt around it but this feels different. >> it might be different. when it comes to public opinion, something like 60% or 61% of the country doesn't want him to run in 2024. his base is solidly behind him and the republican voters are solidly behind him but independence have walked away, the number goes up to 67% for independence, they don't want him to run. things are not working that well politically. in the commercial sphere, which is really what the heart of the attorney general's case in new york is against them, this is going to hamper, even before they come to resolution, this is going to hamper his business operations, if you are a lender and a counterparty, a vendor, are you are just going to sign
11:02 pm
on to help a new golf course or apartment complex or something knowing that the attorney general is asking for a quarter of $1 billion from him? and making allegations that he has committed widespread fraud on the valuation of his properties over the course of a decade? you can't just say yes let's give another $100 million line of credit, it's not going to happen. >> never thought of the business having this happen, and nick, behind the scenes court battle, to prevent the aides from testifying about efforts to overturn election, questions of privilege are front and center, how crucial is the fight going forward? >> extremely crucial but also one he's going to lose because there is no privilege here for any of these people, first of all there trying to claim attorney-client privilege but the fact of the matter is, people like the white house counsel were not his personal attorneys, they can't claim attorney-client privilege for those conversations.
11:03 pm
as to executive privilege, that has basically been decided in the u.s. versus nixon in 1974, you can't claim a privilege when you're talking about overthrowing the government, that is not covered by a privilege. it's not an absolute privilege, executive privilege and generally with respect to any kind of privilege, attorney- client, executive privilege, marital privilege, any kind of conversations in furtherance of a criminal enterprise or crime, is exempt from that privilege. >> these proceedings, do you think it sheds light on how concerned the initial question, how this is, the scuttlebutt behind the scenes in trump world, how concerned trump and the people closely associated with them are and exposure that he might possibly have here quick >> absolutely. they are keeping a total watch on it, we note from the january 6 committee, what they want up
11:04 pm
doing was basically paying everybody's attorneys fees and as a result, eyeballs most certain that what they did is they entered into a joint defense agreement, which is a common thing to do when you have multiple individuals that have what is known as a common interest involved and what that means is that the individual's lawyers can exchange information and it's all covered by privilege, but as we found out from the generations committee, that wasn't used, it was used to find out who was itching to the january 6 committee, who was cooperating, you saw with cassie hutchinson, she had a change lawyers because of that, because she didn't feel comfortable with the lawyer that they had provided her and were paying for. so they did that, on top of that and the whole issue of trying to keep people in line by having them assert privilege. you did see the generations
11:05 pm
committee actually zero in on that, because they have a much more limited lifespan in the sense that they are assuming that they could will be out of business by the end of the year because of the election. and they don't want to let these guys run the clock, so they let people like pat cipollone come in and testify to certain things and he refused to testify to others, particularly conversations with donald trump but the doj doesn't have that issue, they have the ability to immediately go before the primary judge in the district of columbia, darrell howell, the chief judge , and press these issues, and these are going to be -- i don't see them winning on any of them, they are all losers. >> scott, nobody knows where this is all going to end up, these legal blows for the former president, with even some gop senators criticizing handling of the documents, that were seized at mar-a-lago, can he paint himself as a victim as
11:06 pm
you said he had this rally, kenny paint himself and as a victim even when he's the one who asked for the special master? >> candy, yes, because he does. >> correct. >> is doing it at the rally. >> the average republican will probably look at this and say you know, i've been hearing this before he was sworn in, a plot to impeach him twice, we were always on the brink of indictment and the walls are closing in and somehow nothing ever happens to donald trump, the line of demarcation will be if he ever actually actually gets indicted, something beyond just a bad week, we sat through a lot of bad weeks and ultimately he get away on all the issues that were supposedly going to bring him down. i think he will continue to play the victim status until we cross that line of okay, taking the next epic >> 2016, so this new entity got everyone thought he was is renegade, and he was an unknown, now it is a known, i get the
11:07 pm
feeling, the sense that people the party feel like he is a drag of a party again, even the voters, you've heard the polling, what he said, enough already, we like him, we like his antics but enough already. >> i think it's 50-50. >> half would like to have back in half are where you are of the sentiment you expressed, he had his time, now he's an anvil but it doesn't take half the republicans in a general election to sing the party it just takes a few, that's what happened in 2020, center-right leading voters who decided not to vote for them or vote for biden, it will be a bigger check next time that i see very little path for him to win a national election, even i see him as a path to get a nomination. >> next week you will probably declare something, i've been saying it for a while, he will probably sibling to run for
11:08 pm
president, we will see, and errol, what's happening with the new york attorney general is probably the most aggravating for him, he is way concerned about his personal brand always. i'm a billionaire in the best businessman and on, whatever, is this the most aggravating for him?>> for sure, he's built this up over the course of decades, he would sue people, he sued writers of publications he said he was worth a certain amount and he would accuse them of defamation, he is worth this much more, is going to be clear and it already is clear if you read through the court papers, he is valuing mar-a-lago at $739 million, saying it is worth that much because he can develop hundreds of houses and that's worth hundreds of tons of dollars, but he signed away the right to do that, and confirmation can't build it, it's not worth that much in the attorney general's edits were
11:09 pm
$75 million, which is made -- may be an understatement but that's the kind of trouble he's in here and also something he can't let go, let's say he decides not to run for reelection as you are predicting, what's left? the trump organization, if you're going after the trump organization and barring him from doing business and asking them for $250 million that they may or may not have in liquid assets, that is a serious problem. >> it has already been exposed, the valuations and see what is that over time, future people who may want to do business with them may not. thank you. i appreciate you, , thank you, good to see you. >> what will it mean for you and your money, the will -- wall street market. that's next. at carvana, get personalized terms, browse for cars that fit your budget, then customize your downpayment and monthly payment. and these aren't made up numbers,

11:14 pm
april dan wall street, the dow pledging to the lowest level since november 2022 and another dismal week are down sharply amid fears that additional rate hikes from the federal reserve could land the u.s. economy in a recession, are international correspondent marc stewart is here. a day after markets being in the red this entire week, what is creating this economic fear? >> let's just take a step away from the numbers and talk about the broader narrative, that is at play.
11:15 pm
suppose you're on a road trip, looking for a place to start to get a bite to eat, a place to fill up your car and spend the night, but sometimes you get bumps in the road, that is what is happening with the economy right now, the economy basically has an unknown roadmap for the future, as you mentioned, a really rough week, earlier this week we heard from the federal reserve expressing concern that we pay our rent and go grocery shopping and even household supplies can linger for a bit longer, perhaps a lot longer. we are dealing with so much uncertainty right now with the war in ukraine, that good cause these low gas prices we've seen to rise once again. and the wall street bank goldman sachs just today said the future outlook for the economy was somewhat murky, that's what it strategists are saying, it makes people's
11:16 pm
stomachs turned and not invest money, and the rough dan wall street, and he said it was a bit of a overreaction. >> we will see what happens with the markets on monday, a lot of people see the numbers and they know they are bad, the big problem is are we headed toward a re--- recession? >> the indications are not necessarily encouraging that we will avert one. is we've talked before, i feel -- hear from economist with somebody different perspectives that yes we could see a recession because things are not so encouraging but i should point out this is not just an american problem, the high inflation we are seeing is happening in england, turkey, and south america, argentina, this is really a global problem, not only are we facing a threat of a recession here in the
11:17 pm
united states but also globally, that's a sentiment that i've heard from economist, from so many different perspectives, it's fair to say yes, it is. >> admitting the stock market would have to get worse if we want inflation to fall in the u.s. economy could grind to a near halt this year, should people be worried about your their jobs and how will that impact her finances, should they be worried about that? >> that is a concern that people from wall street and main street are sharing, what does it mean for the job market? we have already seen layoffs this year, no matter what industry, how much money you make, if you lose your job it certainly hurts, and have been hearing is focusing specifically on labor issues. they have some feelings of optimism, it has taken so long
11:18 pm
for companies to get staffing levels back to quote unquote normal levels. it was a real struggle. while he may not necessarily see mass layoffs, something that a lot of companies from what i'm hearing may want to avoid, we may not necessarily see jobs be filled, or listings, plans for future hirings, and on hold. that's where we're at right now. >> i appreciate it. >> good to see you pick >> federal prosecutors are recommending against charges for a florida congressman, matt gaetz, the justice department was investigating him over allegations involving sex trafficking and prostitution, including if you had a relationship with a 17-year-old girl. he has repeatedly denied wrongdoing, the recommendation comes in part over concerns whether there star witness, joel greenberg, a former
11:19 pm
florida county tax official who pleaded guilty to six charges last year would be perceived as a credible person before a jury. he had told the g -- doj, accounts that he and matt gaetz had with women, and engaging in sex, cnn reported, they have not decided whether or not to face -- charge him, we're facing a moving deadline, in order not to do so near an election and matt gaetz is up for election in november. less than 50 days before the midterms, a 15 day abortion ban, what will voters think? every moment in life is a bet. like betting on how spicy the atomic wings really are.
11:20 pm
but life doesn't offer you up to $1000 back in free bets if you don't win. so when it comes to the nfl, bet on fanduel... and make every moment more.

11:23 pm
11:24 pm
new tonight, an arizona judge, ruling a 19-year-old ban on abortion the state can be enforced, all abortions can be allowed except for those that affect the mother's life. one of the most restrictive ones, after the rescission of roe versus wade. good to see all of you, thank you so much. maria, arizona joins a list of states with the most restrictive abortion laws in the country, what does the ruling mean for women in arizona and across the country?>> it means that this ruling will take women back 158 years, that was before the shootout at the okay corral, this is just so astounding, but i guess not surprising given what happened over the summer when roe versus wade was taken away by this extremely conservative supreme court. i think what you will see is this will continue to energize and mobilize women, and in a
11:25 pm
way that as a prize the country. when you tell women they can't do something and take away a right they had for more than 50 years, they are going to do something about it, and arizona, don, granddaughters today will have less rights, will be less than the full citizens than her grandmothers were. i mean that is just insanity. you're going to see november women are going to use their right to vote to make things right. >> we will talk about the politics, anna, this 1901 ban, no exceptions for rape or incest, mandates jail time for abortion providers, women didn't even have the right to vote 1901, what you think about this ruling? >> it is somewhat shocking, and jarring that something that happened in 1901, when arizona wasn't even estate, that's the year when marconi first
11:26 pm
received a transatlantic radio signal. i guess we should be glad that they go all the way back to when men and women were walking and living in games and dinosaurs were roaming the earth, but it is jarring, and since the dobbs decision we have seen some of the horrible, heartbreaking jockeying consequences, 10-year-old raped girl who could get an abortion, the woman made to carry the baby without a school, she gave birth to him so she could bury him. we have seen what is meant for women having miscarriages and not able to get that, we have seen what it means to ivf and birth control, we see what it means to doctors, having to think twice, and critical to women, their friend are going
11:27 pm
to be consequences -- prosecuted, the consequences have been chilling, sobering and i think it will result in women taking to the polls in massive numbers. >> what do you think? >> i think there should be exceptions for rape and incest that we are talking about abortions, what this really means is what pro-life advocates have been fighting for, for decades since roe versus wade was put place, the abortion issue and the policies are back in the hands of the legislature, i joined the attorney general of arizona and applauding the judge for putting this back in the hands of elected officials and not unelected justices, if people don't like the outcome than it is their prerogative to vote people in office that represent their views and values. the key thing is protecting the sanctity of life in the on braun and the fight for overturning roe versus wade was just for this very reason, not
11:28 pm
to make this a federal issue, not a national ban on abortion or abortion policies but put it back where it should be, best served at the state level, that is what is happening, clearly pro-choice advocates will appeal the decision, this is not by any stretch of the imagination the final ruling, but from a pro-life standpoint it is a step of the right direction. >> people might have the final ruling in the politics but go ahead anna, you wanted to jump in. >> well, what she said was the purpose of it, not being federalize a national policy, is precisely why people like lindsey graham that the republican are trying to pass, the only thing standing in the way of a lindsey graham actually being able to pass something like that in the senate is chuck schumer, majority leader, and nancy pelosi being the weaker of the
11:29 pm
house, i think it will mean that women all of the country think very hard as to who they vote for and with that's going to mean when it comes to to is going to hold the gavel of the senate and house. >> and to that point don, i think this is going to have more repercussions than just arizona. and say while this could happen in my state, to the point of the midterm elections, i think it is absolutely going to be used democratic mobilization and the chances that we won't not only keep the senate but add several seats to her senate majority for exactly this reason, because women are not going to take this. >> if i could follow up, with result regard to lindsey graham, what he is proposing, putting it on the federal level is a huge mistake, and roe versus wade, what it was overturned, pro-life advocates
11:30 pm
spiked the football, we can't move the goalpost, he wants to go back to putting at the federal level which is exactly what we have been fighting against the entire time i don't see that proposal getting there. >> uni, also in the battleground states, to play a big role in determining who remains in control of congress. and the highest 20% of the voters in arizona and nevada and 20% of registered voters in states with highly competitive house races like california and florida and texas. and sway the outcome. >> district 26 in florida, certainly the latino vote me your brakes who will represent the district, and governors races and senate races, and and frankly, the only person that
11:31 pm
benefits from this ruling today, and it is mark kelly, the democratic senator running for reelection. the latino vote, for me, somewhat of a frustration, so often we talk about the potential of the latino vote, as a sleeping giant, and i think that latinos are finally waking up and coming into their own, they are not homogeneous, that everybody votes the same way, and supports immigration, that everybody's on the same page when it comes to abortion and that everybody's conservative or a new york liberal, people need to understand that when they think of the latino vote. >> i want to talk about that, the polling show that democrats have strong support from latino voters losing ground, 56% said
11:32 pm
they would be more likely to vote for a democratic candidate, a slight drop from 2020, poli, 38 for trump, why do you think the shift with latino voters is happening and should democrats be worried, i think the polling might be for latinos. and a bit different than what it is showing. i think there are more latinos coming to the surface. >> i disagree and running into the hands and arms of republicans is completely overblown, we had issues in 2020, places like miami-dade and the rio grande valley, no question, and democrats -- >> why there. an anomaly? >> well, it was an anomaly in those places for several
11:33 pm
reasons, miami-dade and florida in general there was a massive misinformation and disinformation campaign that focused on smearing joe biden and the democrats as socialists, in the rio grande valley there was a big uptick in conservative latino man liking the kind of machismo that donald trump and the trump republicans showed. so we absolutely have work to do, you know, i've said this many times in your program, democrats cannot rest on our laurels, we have to treat the latino vote as a swing vote and do everything we can to communicate our message, it is our policies that allow families , latino families to live better lives in this country but i need to make one other point on this abortion issue, there have been two national latino polls by posters you know how to pull the latino committee in this country and abortion has become the top
11:34 pm
priority issue for latinos on the side of wanting abortion to remain legal, this is astounding, and completely different and a flipside to what republicans have thought was going to be a big issue for them, a positive issue for them for latinos and it has been exactly the opposite. >> that has to be last word, tbc, to be continued, thank you very much. >> thank you don. the event that shaped decades of history, and i would is a time with the founder of rolling stone, next. for people living with h-i-v, keep being you.
11:35 pm
and ask your doctor about biktarvy. biktarvy is a complete, one-pill, once-a-day treatment used for h-i-v in certain adults. it's not a cure, but with one small pill, biktarvy fights h-i-v to help you get to and stay undetectable. that's when the amount of virus is so low it cannot be measured by a lab test. research shows people who take h-i-v treatment every day and get to and stay undetectable can no longer transmit h-i-v through sex. serious side effects can occur, including kidney problems and kidney failure. rare, life-threatening side effects include a buildup of lactic acid and liver problems. do not take biktarvy if you take dofetilide or rifampin. tell your doctor about all the medicines and supplements you take, if you are pregnant or breastfeeding, or if you have kidney or liver problems, including hepatitis. if you have hepatitis b, do not stop taking biktarvy without talking to your doctor. common side effects were diarrhea, nausea, and headache. if you're living with hiv, keep loving who you are. and ask your doctor if biktarvy is right for you.
11:36 pm
my mental health was much better. my mind was in a good place. but my body was telling a different story. i felt all people saw were my uncontrolled movements. some mental health meds can cause tardive dyskinesia, or td, and it's unlikely to improve without treatment. ingrezza is a prescription medicine to treat adults with td movements in the face and body. it's the only treatment for td that's one pill, once-daily, with or without food. ingrezza 80 mg is proven to reduce td movements in 7 out of 10 people. people taking ingrezza can stay on their current dose of most mental health meds. don't take ingrezza if you're allergic to any of its ingredients. ingrezza may cause serious side effects including sleepiness. don't drive, operate heavy machinery, or do other dangerous activities until you know how ingrezza affects you.
11:37 pm
other serious side effects include potential heart rhythm problems and abnormal movements. it's nice people focus more on me. ask your doctor about ingrezza, #1 prescribed for td. learn how you could pay as little as zero dollars at ingrezza.com.
11:38 pm
the music bible, that's how
11:39 pm
a lot of people refer to rolling stone magazine. tonight the man who started all when he was is 21 is telling all about his front row seat to the golden age of rock, brion jann wenner, the founder of rolling stone magazine and the author of like a rolling stone. i appreciate you joining us. we can talk about your career but what has this journey writing this book been like for you, writing a book is a tough thing, was this -- >> i enjoyed enormously, to write well, and get the descriptions right, you have to bring yourself back to that moment, and put yourself in that frame of mind, and that physical place and think with that i really feel and believe what was going on. and to end up really reliving it all. you see it, going back a few moments, with people. a wonderful thing. >> this is a big book.
11:40 pm
1967 is when he founded rolling stone magazine, and the impact that music had on the culture, i don't know if it was realized that you see it, does it still have the same cultural impact? >> it doesn't quite cut still enormous, current music has enormous relevance to his younger audience today, but not with the same passion and i think impact as it did when i was young, the beatles and the stones of bob dylan, and came at a time, a moment of great change in america, the youth culture and the baby boomers, it spoke to them in a way that nothing else did, you can hear lots of messages from lots of different places, everywhere but then, you could hear it only in the music, kind of a tribal telegraph. >> this was a civil rights movement, the gay rights movement, women's lib, vietnam war, a lot going on in music
11:41 pm
was speaking to that.>> and the generations that listen to it and the message of the music was in favor of equal rights and human justice, and every single one of the issues you manage -- mentioned, music impacted and spoke to and told people how to feel about it take about a, how their relationship with other people were, and the responsibility of generations to the world. that's what made it so powerful, it had a message beyond a beat and singing, it meant something. >> the stick one album that had a huge influence, marvin gaye, what's going on, i did a documentary last year of the song, the album what's going on, racism poverty and police brutality, it became an american protist anthem, do you think music can speak to the marginalized and oppressed the way this did? >> no, not like that. it's a different time and era. my impression is, what i see in rap today, is not as intense as
11:42 pm
it was when he first heard marvin gaye singing what's going on. >> much more on the line than. >> i think there was more, to date, the fight is still in play but not as passionate or new as it was then. >> it wasn't as new right. these are people who are really going against it in ways that they created the pathway for people coming now and speaking directly. >> that's a fair assessment. sam cook, seeing a change is going to come, but nothing specifically about civil rights, you read between the lines. the passion is powerful as ever, more than ever. >> let's talk about other things about cultural impact, the aids crisis began in the early 80s and became an epidemic, unfortunately affecting game men. -- gay men. tell me about the social stigma attached to it and how rolling
11:43 pm
stone covered it and what you witnessed is the head of rolling stone at that time? >> you knew a lot, we were in new york and kind of a local story, that's where the impact first was felt. and i started reading about it in your times, small items, some strange disease and it did make sense, we put a reporter on it for about nine months or year, and since about to find out what was going on. we won a magazine award for coverage of aids, and dr. anthony fauci, no one had heard of, and kramer and all the research scientists everything, fascinating story. but you know the impact was severe. there was trauma. and now we see the results of it. the silver cloud the lining, the silver lining in the cloud, there's a lot more dignity and
11:44 pm
respect. >> did you realize the moment you were there, sometimes you don't, because you're too close but sometimes you realize this is huge, and i was covering covidien george floyd, i knew the immediate impact, did you realize that? >> because covert impacts everybody, aids impacted a small marginalized segment of america. >> than it was. >> as a say, the curse of it is off, and medical treatment is available and the stigma is off, just like the stigma is off being gay. >> speaking of that, and you ended your marriage to your wife jane, after 26 years, you have been with your current husband, matt, since 1995, you didn't come out as a gay man into your 50s, everyone has their own coming out journey but tell me about yours? >> i didn't write about it much because i don't think it is that different than anybody
11:45 pm
else. i think the story has been told many times by many people, and there's always difference in the details, but fundamentally comes down to the same thing, in my case it wasn't an emergency, there was an urgent feeling i had to come out. it took me 50 years to do it. [ laughter ] i was prayerfully happy, good marriage and 3 kids, and a house that i loved in a wife i loved, and i knew i was gay. >> was a generational, you didn't feel the urge needed to come out? >> no i didn't. looking back, when i was young, in the 50s and early 50s, you could go to jail for being gay. people to talk about it, nothing on tv, you did even know what gay was. you knew it was something that was bad, you are [null] or something like that. so i don't know why, it did become an issue. >> you had this great life and ran one of the most important
11:46 pm
influential magazines in history, you have this book, if there's anything you had a do over, would you do anything? >> i don't think so. there are people, you would higher stories you would have published, little things here and there, but to start to unravel that string, i feel so lucky for where i am, being healthy and happy and having kids and i would change that. >> you are happy. >> yes. >> fascinating life and book, it's called like a rolling stone, a memoir, and it is by jann wenner, thank you for. best of luck to you. >> thank you. >> we will be right back. that's a lot. so, adding “and student” might feel daunting. but what if a school could be there for all of you? career, and family and finances and mental health. happy birthday. well, it can.

like something straight of the tv crime show, genealogy leading authorities to solve a years long case to catch a stalker, the first case at the federal level to use such technology to identify suspect. here's more. >> reporter: for 12 years, stalked by a man who threatened to kidnap, rape and kill and then dismember her and her
11:52 pm
young daughter, he sent detailed letters threatening explicit sexual violence, signed freddy krueger, a fictional serial killer. >> hellish, nightmarish, deviant and perverse, sick letters. >> reporter: the fbi shared the letters with us. >> he specifically said by main mission in life is to stalk you and rape you and terrify you, i want to make your life so miserable that you can't stand it. >> 49 letters and all. >> the time he found us we would move, sold my house. >> when the letters began, playing a dna investigator on csi miami. >> this is what i do. speak in real life, depending on investigators to save her, there was evidence. >> they like the evidence and left traces of dna. >> the perpetrators dna did not match any database. >> we are saying we have the
11:53 pm
