♪♪ alex! mateo, hey how's business? great. you know that loan has really worked wonders. that's what u.s. bank is for. and you're growing in california? -yup, socal, norcal... -monterey? -all day. -a branch in ventura? that's for sure-ah. atms in fresno? fres-yes. encinitas? yes, indeed-us. anaheim? big time. more guacamole? i'm on a roll-ay. how about you? i'm just visiting. u.s. bank. ranked #1 in customer satisfaction with retail banking in california by j.d. power. a look inside the mind of that 21-year-old air national guardsman accused of leaking

dozens of high lay classified documents online. looking at his room, arsenal of weapons, and why prosecutors believe he is a flight risk. a major move by the vatican, women will fwhou allowed to participate and vote at a major upcoming meeting of bishops. what pope francis is saying about this. brand new numbers on the state of the u.s. economy, still growing but slowing. so what happens next? all that coming up on cnn "news central". federal pros prosecutors say the documents leaker is an ongoing risk. this was part of an overnight court filing hours before suspect jack teixeira will stand before a federal judge in boston today.

prosecutors say he stole and posted classified material online in a deliberate effort to disseminate the country's secrets. the court filing also reveals he had a history of racist and violent threats. prosecutors say he spoke about wanting to kill a ton of people. these photos show what investigators found inside his bedroom saying jack teixeira had access to an arsenal of weapons, including handguns, rifles and a fwas mask. at his atgas mask. at his detention hearing the judge bill decide whether he stays in jail while he awaits trial. jason what evidence do the prosecutors have that he was trying to hide what he was doing as well? >> there was a lot of new information, sarah that came out in that 11th hour court filing. including new allegations, namely that the defendant in

this case, jack teixeira, viewed hundreds of classified documents. this is a new number, not dozens but hundreds of classified documents and prosecutors argue if he were to get out on bail their concern is he may still have access to these court documents which is why they want him to remain behind bars saying the following, the defendant knows where the information is, how to access it and based on his specialized i.t. skills he presumably knows how to disseminate that information without being immediately noticed. that was one point. also, they noted that right after he discovered this leak had been publicized the authorities were on him, he did several things to cover his tracks, he got a new email, a new phone and told people he was conserving with, delete all messages and if anyone comes looking to tell them, expletive.

the prosecutors alleging in terms of him trying to cover his tracks when they got to his home, they also discovered that he had smashed a laptop, a tablet, a gaming console, all of this found in the dumpster of his family home. and what also that a number of us found disturbing looking through these documents, sara, prosecutors were alarmed at the search items, things like rouby ridge, las vegas shooting, buffalo tops shooting and uvalde. and this is all going to be taken into consideration. >> thank you for all of those details jason carol. this just in, the u.s. economy grew at a smaller pace at a rate of just 1.1%. let's bring in christine romans.

i want to get your take on what you see in the numbers. i like the way john said it at the top of the slow, growing but slowing. >> yes. we expected 2% we got 1.1%. so that shows you this read was weaker than many economists thought. and this was the broadest measure of economic strength. this is the super bowl of economic reports, right. this tells us the big measure of the american economy. when you look at how we've done here, 1.1% is a slow down from the last part of 2022 when we had 2.6%. you can see the deceleration of economic growth. when i dig inside the numbers, consumer spending stayed strong. so the consumer have been very, very strong amid high interest rates and inflation. consumer spending strong but the momentum started to fizzle in business investments and other investments. you've seen that. you 've seen couples buckle up,

get worried down the road if there's a recession. 1.1%. that is stronger but slower than the end of last year. >> also getting new jobless claim numbers. what are they saying? >> they're showing resilience as well. 230,000 first time unemployment claims these are people going to the office for the first time filing for benefits. this is down 16,000 from the prior week. in the decade before the pandemic, the average was 311,000 every week. so this is still historically pretty low. with all of those headlines every day of we're in the middle of job cuts from 3m, disney, here and there, when you look at these numbers it's still a strong job market. >> it's confusing to me. maybe there is more clarity. does this offer more clarity or what does jerome powell see in this? >> those trying to slow a super

charged economy, see this gdp number as evidence that is happening but the jobs number are something that is still puzzling to the fed and big economists. the job market remains tight, which keeps feeding the inflation story. it is a chaotic and confusing picture. after the pandemic trying to figure out what is the new normal? >> is it enough to pause on rising interest rates? >> i don't know. maybe not. i think most people bet there's another 25 point basis points hike in, and then they pause. >> i'm not a betting point, john berman. >> i'm still riding the high on when christine romans said she liked the way i described it -- >> i said that. >> she said that. i agreed. this morning kevin mccarthy is celebrating the biggest victory since becoming house speaker. the passage of a bill that would raise the debt ceiling depending

on spending cuts. mccarthy and other republicans hope it might force president biden to the negotiating table. lauren fox is live on capitol hill for us this morning. >> reporter: all eyes are on the white house and what the next steps are. they made it clear they are not willing to negotiate to increase the country's borrowing limit. arguing a discussion about the country's fiscal health should be part of the budget and appropriations process down the line. republicans arguing however they succeeded in unifying their conference, showing biden and democrats in the u.s. senate that they have a plan that can work. and their argument is that it's the only plan moving through congress right now. this came after months of negotiations, behind closed doors meeting, listening sessions with the whip team and at the end of the day, republicans were able to secure

a victory but it was the narrowest of margins you could have had to pass this bill yesterday on the floor. in fact, a person familiar with kevin mccarthy's thinking said as he was going to the floor he was pretty confident he was going to have the votes he needed to succeed but he wasn't 100% sure. he had four republicans voting against that proposal. and there's a question about even if he gets to the negotiating table with the white house what he brings back is going to be far less conservative than what was passed yesterday. what wasn't conservative enough for some of those republicans john. so that gives you a sense of how difficult a needle kevin mccarthy is going to have to thread here at the end of the day. >> very difficult. still not clear if they'll talk or if they do, what they'll talk about. what the parameters would be. lauren fox, keep us posted. thank you. now senior political analyst john avlon joins us to discuss this. lucky to have you here.

thank you for showing up in the early morning. >> always. >> thanks. mccarthy sent this message directly to the president yesterday. let's listen. >> you said at the very beginning we had to show you a plan, even though the democrats have shown no plan. not only did we show you a plan we're the only ones to pass a plan. i think it's up to you now w whether the economy goes in any trouble it's you. because the republicans raised the debt limit , you have not. >> so the blame game is started. >> yes. >> will this bring the president to some sort of negotiating table? >> the white house has been clear that they're not going to negotiate over raising the debt limit. there's context here. this is not fiscally responsible to refuse to raise the debt limit or use it to extort, in effect. you have divided government, no republicans, mccarthy deserves credit for passing the threshold in the house but it's not going to pass the senate. i think the question is whether

some of the proposals that they have put forward can be carved out and biden negotiate with them. because some of the items are clear nonstarters for the biden administration and the senate. but others, there's been bipartisan support for in the past. the other context is the debt limit was raised three times under president trump, republicans didn't care about extorting it at that time, now they see leverage. >> this is politics at its -- i don't think finest is the word. >> most self-defeating. >> yes. the gop has repeatedly criticized democrats for raising the national debt but they claim that everything spent, as you just mentioned, under donald trump has been paid for. >> cbo said that's not true. debt increased by 7 trillion under, you know, donald trump. so these are serious numbers. and again we see the pattern where when republicans have control of the white house

they're less focused on deficit and debts than when democrats are in the white house. but there are elements put forward that had bipartisan support. work requirements in exchange for food stabs or welfare. and even when president biden was a senator he supported something like that. earlier this month in wisconsin a work requirement came before voters passed by 80%. calling back covid money that hasn't been spent, no brainer, it's 30 billion only but a billion here, a billion there. >> only you could say 30 billion is nothing. >> but to the deficit we're in right now. where do we go from here? we have the argument, and they're going after each other in public this is the way they're trying to shame the other side. what happens next?

>> this doesn't benefit anybody but arguably china and big powers that want to see america's faith and credit rattled part of the long term effort to replace the world's currency. this would be a self-inflicted wound. it is up to the president to negotiate but separate out we should not be playing politics with the debt ceiling it's d dangerous for the u.s. economy and our standing in the world. you want to have conversations to lower the debt, that's a good conversation and biden should engage that but it shouldn't be paired with an extortion effort. >> this is a good conversation to have. the parents of the louisville bank shooter are speaking out and telling their story. >> we are heart broken. we wish we could undo it, but we know we can't. plus another legal blow for donald trump. a court rules he cannot stop

asking for 70 non-bishop members and asking that half of those be women and he also would like young people included. part of the reason he's doing this is partially because of his vision of opening up conversation in the church to women and to lay people but because the topic of this, which is a meeting of bishops, which is happening in october is precisely that relationship with the hierarchy of the church and those kinds of topics. as you can imagine there are women's groups in the church pushing for this for some time. the women's ordination conference said it's a significant crack in the stained glass ceiling. a colorful metaphor from them. the thing we don't know is what are they voting on? this is a process that started in 2021 with listening sessions

these people who are trying, what are they saying this morning? how frustrated are they? >> reporter: they're really frustrated, john. when we talk to the family members of these americans in sudan right now. what they say is that it is an incredibly delicate, frustrating situation they're trying to maneuver. not to mention the safety ramifications that they're running into. we spoke to a number of americans, particularly whose parents are in the country and trying to get out right now. and what they described was, quote, shock and disgust when it comes to the u.s. government's lack of support for the safety of these citizens. we know the u.s. government has said they're in close connectivity with the americans, they are helping to facilitate their way out of the country but that isn't the story when you talk to most of these american families trying to figure out the quickest way out but also in

their words making life or death decisions as they determine which pathway may be the best for their family members who are in the country. and as you said earlier, this happens as there's been this cease-fire struck earlier this week. it's about to run out. but it hasn't even necessarily held across the country. so when that expires, the question is, will it get even more violent? here are the americans we spoke to in the u.s. who described the conditions their family members are facing in the country as they try to get their way out of the country. >> they're stuck at the border, there's no water, food. the border is essentially a humanitarian crisis. and they're not the only americans who are facing this issue. >> the wait time at the border is many days. children are crying. and they're just laying on the ground.

it's a desert. even if you have cash you can't buy anything because there's nothing. it's a desert. and they're just stranded. >> reporter: now u.s. officials have also said they're not carrying out air evacuations for these american citizens because they say it would be more dangerous for them like they did for the u.s. diplomats over the weekend. but the con traszing reality is a lot of other countries are evacuating their citizens in the country so it's not necessarily good optics for the u.s. government. >> still not clear how much time is left here. kay kylie atwood at the state department, thank you very much. a new setback for donald trump and the criminal investigation into his actions surrounding january 6th. trump has lost the attempt to block mike pence from testifying

about their communications. trump has tried and failed to block at least a dozen witnesses from testifying. katelyn katelyn polantz joins us now. pence said he will be willing to testify, what happens next? >> reporter: mike pence could be going in front of the grand jury soon. the appeals court that issued thorder last night told trump he's losing the whole ball game here. he's not going to be able to block mike pence from going into the grand jury. pence is saying he's willing to testify. so now waiting and watching the court to see if he does show up when he does show up to give that unprecedented testimony. this is no small thing. there have been many witnesses brought in by special counsel jack smith to testify in the january 6th investigation. but mike pence is a vice

president testifying against the president he served under, divulging conversations between those two men, the two leaders of the country. normally they don't share those types of things but it is a situation where a grand jury needs information. we don't know exactly what the courts are saying to say that trump loses here and mike pence needs to testify at this stage. but it's very clear that when a grand jury needs the information, the secrecy around the presidency falls away. so pence is likely to be divulging, under oath, exactly what was said, what he can recall about the conversations trump had him with when he was pressuring him the morning up to january 6th. opinions of course was telling trump no. that all is going to be part of the january 6th investigation. but pence, of course, is just

one in many, many people who have been forced to go in by the courts. trump has lost four different appeals that he has tried to make blocking different testimony and pence will ultimately be at least one of a dozen people forced to go in here and not a small one at that. sara. >> we were looking at all those names. they were all insiders who have information that the grand jury is going to hear from. thank you so much katelyn polantz appreciate you live from washington. we are standing by for what will likely be another dramatic day in court. columnist e. jean carroll will face cross-examination from donald trump's legal team. yesterday she became emotional when giving a detailed account of the alleged sexual assault. saying at one point i'm here because donald trump raped me and when i wrote about it he said it didn't happen. also testifying, quote, he lied and shattered my reputation and

i'm here to try to get my life back. this is a civil lawsuit and carroll is suing trump for bat battery. saying that he raped her in the '90s and then saying he attacked her character when she alenlegey wrote about it. jessica, thank you for coming in. in what we know of her testimony from what you said on the stand yesterday, you think her testimony was strong. what sticks out to you? >> it appears to have been very detailed about the -- not only the assault that she alleges but also the impact on her in the decades that have followed. and that's necessary for proving damages. but also for her defamation claim. she talked about the impact of trump's denial of her allegations once she finally came forward and the harm that it did to her, including her reputation and financial interests. her success in this case is

going to, in many ways, rise and fall on the credibility of her testimony. so the fact it was so powerful and vivid yesterday and had the details about the assault itself and the impact on her i think is very significant. >> i believe she's going to face a bit more questioning from her attorneys today. and then she's going to face cross examination from donald trump's legal team. talking about an alleged rape, that seems a very delicate task in terms of cross-examination and how that comes across to a jury. what would you expect from trump's attorneys today and how they go about that, what the strategy is around that in cross-examining e jean carroll? >> they already broadcast in a sense what their strategy is going to be. they're going to suggest she's lying. that's the allegation, she has made this up for purposes of gaining fame and fortune through sales of her book and also the

status, the prestige that has come along with occupying this space in the public. and her failure to come forward earlier is further showing she's motivated by political bias. >> it seems yesterday carroll's attorney tried to get ahead of that, through questioning she said at one point i'm not settling a political score, i'm settling a personal score because he called me a liar and it's decimating my reputation. i'm a journalist one thing i have to have is the trust of the readers. do you think that was effective in how they were trying to get ahead of where things were going to be heading? >> they knew full well what the strategy by the defense was going to be. so they were trying to get ahead of it, implant in the juror's mind what the explanation would be for failure to come forward earlier and her motivations when she talked about how it was important to have her day in court. and lawyers made clear in her opening statement what evidence they were going to present to

shore up her credibility. including witnesses to whom she made statements close to the time of the assault about it happening. and those prior consistent statements are going to be important to the injuryjury and reassuring them that she hasn't fabricated any of the claims for the reasons the trump team would allege. >> and it's going to bring in testimony from two other women who are going to say they've been assaulted by trump also, it'll be interesting to see how it happens. thanks for coming in. another dramatic day in court. florida governor, ron desantis taking swings at disney this morning after the company sued him alleging he violated their federal constitutional rights and a unified demand for the release of "the wall street journal" reporter evan gershkovich.

world, and all these other places. and so, they're upset because they're actually having to live by the same rules as everybody else. they don't want to have to pay the same taxes as everybody else. and they want to be able to control things without proper oversight. i don't think the suit has merit. i think it's political. >> reporter: now disney in this lawsuit, which spans 77 pages, claims that desantis' administration engaged in a relentless campaign of political retribution because the company spoke out, in pretty mild terms, against the so-called don't say gay bill last year. and since then the governor's office and people he has appointed to oversee disney's new special taxing district have been punishing the company for speaking out and making that statement. this lawsuit also says that desantis was boasting about these actions and that's why they believe they have a first

amendment case. it was not just a leveling of the playing field as desantis said but this was specific retribution in response to something that disney said. now a court in northern district of florida will decide whether disney or desantis is right, john. >> in his public comments as governor could come into play in this. thanks so much for your reporting, steve. sarah? she was a symbol of the high point in the relationship with the united states and china and now yaya is back in the spotlight after being returned to her home country from the memphis zoo. why so many in china demanded her return after 20 years. we're live in beijing, next. and genoa salami. blm you can't stop that much meat. you can only hope to contatain it - in freshshly baked bread. try subway's tastiest t menu upgrade yet.
