>> there may be no place like jail for the person who stole dorothy's ruby slippers. a federal grand jury has indicted a minnesota man for allegedly stealing an original pair of the wizard of oz slippers, nearly two decades ago. they were swiped from the judy garland museum, that require -- recovered in 2018. they are valid around three point $5 million. i know, sadly, those are not actual rubies. thank you so much for joining us. the news continues on cnn. >> hello, and welcome to our viewers joining us here in united states, and all around the world. i'm rosemary church. just ahead on cnn newsroom, u.s. president joe biden will

soon land in japan for the g7 summit, where the war in ukraine is expected to be a top issue. we're live in hiroshima in just a few minutes. plus, prince harry and meghan say they were chased by paparazzi for nearly two hours to the streets of new york city. we hear from their taxi driver, just ahead. plus, a cnn exclusive new evidence may undercut donald trump's claims about classified documents found in mar-a-lago. >> live from cnn center, this is cnn newsroom with rosemary church. >> good to have you with us. u.s. president joe biden is set to arrive in japan in the next hour, ahead of a summit of the world's leading democracies. and the war in ukraine is expected to top the g7 agenda. ukraine has stepped up its campaign for f-16 fighter jets,

although president biden has been reluctant to agree. there is also word that the u.s. does not want to talk about diplomatic solution until it sees how ukraine's plan spring offensive turns out. live now to hiroshima, and cnn 's white house reporter kevin liptak. good to see, kevin. once the g7 summit gets underway, what's expected to come out of these meetings in terms of goals for pressing issues like ukraine and of course, china? >> certainly it is a packed agenda for president biden. any other leaders here japan. perhaps one of the busiest g seven meetings in recent memories. and this is become the most critical summit when it comes to the leaders coordination on ukraine. and that will be a pressing issue when they sit down and really get meetings underway in earnest starting tomorrow. one of the things that is expected to come out of this is a new set of sanctions. really looking to close some of the loopholes in the existing

sanctions, go after those who are evading the sanctions that are already in place. that is something that president biden and other world leaders want to get a handle on. president biden is also expected to talk about the situation on the battlefield in ukraine, as ukraine prepares for this counteroffensive. the world leaders really do want to ensure that ukraine can be gained some territory, and that would ensure can have some leverage at an eventual negotiating table, where that will, the one that will be remain unknown, and certain. but certainly, if they want to make sure those discussions happen. now, remember, ukrainian president volodymyr zelenskyy has just finished a tour of europe. the four european leaders who are part of the g7 all hosted him in their own countries, all pledging billions of dollars in new military aid. so, this is really coming at quite a critical moment. of course, the other main issue that is looming over these talks is china, perhaps more so than that previous g7s, for the simple she --

for the simple reason we are in asia. the g7 only happens in asian once every several years. that will prove a critical point of discussion among these leaders. there are differences in the approach between the europeans and the americans on how to approach china. but what president biden really wants to do is come up to some sort of general agreement about how to approach beijing, as tensions increase around taiwan and the south china sea, and on the economic front as well, rosemary. >> and kevin, president biden was forced to shorten his overseas trip, wasn't he, so we can return to the united states earlier and finalize a deal to avert a u.s. default on its national debt. what more are you hearing about that? any whispers about how that might turn out? >> yeah, certainly, for all the talk of ukraine and china, the most pressing issue on global stability right now is the threat of american default. and of course, president biden leaves behind these negotiations between his aides in between republicans on

capitol hill over how to avoid a default that could potentially happen as june 1st. as he was departing, he did voice some confidence that a deal would be reached. listen to what he had to say. >> america is not a dead beat nation. we pay or bills. the nation has never defaulted on its debt, and it never will. and we're going to continue these discussions with congressional leaders in the coming days, until we reach an agreement. >> now, there's always a trade-off when you cancel part of your foreign trip to head back to washington. and certainly, many leaders he will be disappointed that president biden won't be able to fulfill his engagements in australia, of a new guinea. the white house says they have just postpone them, they will get them on the books eventually. but certainly, that will be the main topic that world leaders are concerned about, as president biden is getting ready to arrive here shortly, rosemary. >> all right, our thanks to kevin liptak, joining us live from hiroshima in japan. new evidence in the

investigation into classified documents taken by donald trump may undercut some of his claims. at a cnn town hall last week, the former u.s. president insistent that simply by removing the materials from the white house he had declassified them. >> i have no classified documents. and by the way, they become automatically declassified when i took them. >> but according to multiple sources, the national archives has records showing trump and his top advisers knew about the correct declassification process. and those records are being sent to the special counsel. cnn's paula reid has the exclusive details. >> according to this letter from the national archives, obtained exclusively by our colleague jamie gangel, these 16 records of the special counsel wants to obtain reveal communications, some from top trump advisers, explaining the

how, why, and when you declassify certain documents. now, that is significant because the special counsel is looking at several crimes, including possibly mishandling classified information. and it, the special counsel, could use these records to establish. the trump -- on how he declassified materials, and the fact that apply to him. that could help inform prosecutors as they decide whether they want to bring a case. now, the former president's lawyers have given various explanations for how and why he brought is classified documents down to mar-a-lago. the former president has suggested he automatically was able to classify these documents. he has also said that he has a standing order to declassify them, but his lawyers though have argued part of this was about the process, being flawed, and things were inadvertently packed up in the end administration. so, these records will help clarify the extent to which trump was aware of how you declassify items. now, the special counsel may

have to wait to get their hands on these documents, because the former president's legal team, they may file a legal challenge. they have not been successful in preventing prosecutors from getting much of the evidence that they have tried to obtain. but i am told by a source family where their thinking, they may still file a challenge because they want to try to protect constitutional and presidential privileges. paula reid, cnn, washington. >> the spokesperson for the duke and duchess of sussex is calling a car chase with paparazzi in new york, quote, near catastrophic. but their version of events not completely lining up with what police and even a taxi driver who picked them up says happened. the driver says the cars behind the cab did not seem aggressive, and the nypd says no injuries, collisions, or arrests were reported. new york city's mayor is also questioning the knights events.

>> i would find it hard to believe that there was a two-hour high speed chase. i find it hard to believe, but we'll find out the exact duration of it. but if it's ten minute, a ten-minute chase is extremely dangerous in new york city. we have a lot of traffic, a lot of movement, a lot of people are using our streets. any type of high-speed chase that involves something of that nature is inappropriate. >> cnn's scott mclain joins me now live from london with more on this. good morning to you, scott. so, how is this story being reported across britain, with these two rather different versions of events? >> just to clarify, rosemary, nobody is saying that this was a high-speed chase, but the sussexes team is certainly saying this was dangerous. so, their ritual statement said this, that they were involved in a near catastrophic car chase at the hands of a ring of highly aggressive paparazzi. the relentless pursuit, lasting

over two hours, resulted in multiple near collisions, involving other drivers on the road, pedestrians, and two new york city police department officers. now, according to the sussexes team, they are saying that, look, they were concerned about the safety of people who were using the sidewalk, other drivers, things like that. saying that these photographers, we are on bicycles, cars, drove the wrong way down a wrong way street, drove down the sidewalk, we're talking on the phone all driving, and at one point, illegally brought block their car. the police, as you mentioned, give a much more benign version of events, saying that the transport, due to the photographers, was made more challenging. but as you pointed out, there is no tickets issued. and surely that will raise questions about why. this was also not a diplomatic escort that the police were giving. the duke and duchess of sussex. they were there for protection, and clearly they did not view the paparazzi as any kind of a threat. this could've ended much sooner than it did, but the sussexes

didn't want the paparazzi to know the location of the apartment just a few blocks away that they were actually staying at, presumably because they would stake it out. so, after an hour to half of trying to lose this pack of photographers, they end up going to a new york city police station, not to report any crime, but just regroup. they ended up getting a yellow -- yellow taxicab, hoping that would be an in conspicuous way for them to escape the paparazzi. but they quickly caught up with them. the taxi driver said that he did not believe that the paparazzi was being aggressive. he told this to cnn. >> i did not feel like i was in danger. but you know, harry and meghan, they looked very nervous. when the paparazzi started taking pictures, i heard from the back, somebody said oh, my god. and with a look on their faces, you could tell they were nervous and scared. >> so, eventually, harry and meghan were able to get away during a police shift change, when a jam of police cars essentially prevented the photographers from catching up

with them. all of this, obviously, is against the backdrop of the fact that prince harry's mother, princess diana, dodging a paparazzi chasing 1997. although the driver in that case was found to be drunk. one other thing to mention, rosemary, and that is that prince harry right now is in the midst of appealing against a british government ruling, which says he cannot have police protection in this country. he's offered to pay for it himself, the governor saying that would set a precedent for very rich people to be able to buy police protection that other police -- that other private citizens wouldn't be able to. rosemary? >> our thanks to scott mclean, joining us live from london. royal watcher but he's share amanda joins us from london. appreciate you being with us. >> my pleasure. >> so, we are seeing two conflicting statements on what happened in new york city tuesday night. prince harry and meghan described the incident as a near catastrophic car chase, with highly aggressive paparazzi, lasting over two

hours. while the nypd simply describe it as challenging, with no reported collisions, injuries, or risks. although mayor adams said the paparazzi were reckless, he questioned whether that chase lasted two hours though. why such different versions, do you think? >> i think that two different glosses on the same thing. i very much was them used by the nypd statement, that word challenging, it's like they're saying, listen, you want to come to new york, this is what you like. we deal with stuff all day long. so, what is really frightening and invasive and harassing to this couple might be level one of what the nypd has to deal with all day, every day. so, it was a little bit of shame there thrown towards harry and meghan. however, in fact, i don't think that anyone really disputes the physical facts of what happened. the inconsiderate driving, the dangerous driving, which

endangered the perpetrators as well as bystanders and everyone else. breaking barriers, traffic violations. and the sense that this is a group of paparazzi acting against essentially a couple who is famous, but are stranger to the paparazzi, in order to get photographs to be sold. definitely what's coming through is that harry and meghan have a very hypersensitive vulnerability and threat. and of course, we know why that is. it's because of harry's family history. it's because this is very personal for him. it ties into his feelings about losing his mother, his entire childhood, being handled being photographed, being served up for the tabloids for gossip and speculation. it's also key into their narrative of, hang on, we thought that we had left the uk in order to escape the hostility. and yet, it seems to have followed us here. clearly for them, it was a very rare, very unpleasant experience. for the nypd, it might be just another night on the block.

>> right, and critics of the sussexes are climbing all over the different versions. we're also hearing from the taxi driver who took harry and meghan to this police station until they are transferred into his yellow cap for protected suv. the taxi driver estimates about six paparazzi pursuing them, but not aggressively. what is being said about his version of events, and the fact that harry and meghan switched cars more than once during this incident? >> i think there's a huge amount of appreciation, actually, for the cabdrivers version of events. because i cannot imagine what it's like being a cabdriver in new york. you see everything. and because it's so congested, it adds to the sense of danger. now, of course for the cabdriver, it adds to his sense of mastery. so, what seems perilous to us is a another day at work for him. but imagine all of this happening, whether they're six paparazzi or six cars or 60 or

600, it's happening within a very congested space of new york city, where you've got pedestrians, bikes, pedestrians, cars, all crowding the streets of the same time. it must felt incredibly claustrophobic. >> and i did just want to quickly get your reaction, because buckingham palace and kensington palace, they are not reacting. and it's difficult, when that really conveys something, doesn't it. should they be seeing something at this point, at least i hope they're safe, i hope we can send our thoughts and prayers, those sorts of sentiments perhaps? >> no, i'm not really surprised by buckingham palace's silence. they have clearly made a decision they are not going to get into any commenting back and forth in public. i think there are slightly put off by the celebrity aspect of this piece of breaking news. they don't want to say anything in public showing concern.

maybe there have been some phone calls or messages on back channels or behind the scenes. but they don't want to behave like a celebrity family. they're maintaining the position. >> all right, bidisha mamata, think you so much, joining us from london, appreciate it. and still to come, heavy fighting is being reported in bakhmut, or both ukraine and the wagner mercenary group are claiming territorial gains. the latest, just ahead. plus, jerusalem is bracing for more unrest, as thousands of israeli nationalists prepared to march through the old city. those details and much more, still ahead. what you need. that's my boboy. now you get out there, and you make us proud, huh? ♪ bybye, uncle limu. ♪ stay off the freeways! only pay for what you need.

the united states postal service. >> we are following new developments in ukraine, where explosions have been heard in kyiv and in regions across the country, triggering a nationwide air alert. ukraine's air defense systems were activated, and officials say debris falling over the capitol sparked a fire. and this comes just two days after russia launched a barrage of missiles at kyiv and across ukraine. cnn's clare sebastian is following developments for us. she joins us live from london. good morning to you, clare. so, what is the latest on these explosions in kyiv and in other parts of the ukraine? >> yeah, rosemary, this was yet a not a night where ukraine's air defenses had phased a major test. as they say, the night aerial assault by russia in the month of may alone.

so, we clearly see an uptick in intensity. kyiv, it seems air defenses were able to shoot down all of the attempted attacks there. though, as we've seen recently, even see these images they're provided by the police chief in the region, that does not mean there's no danger. this is falling debris from those missiles that was shot down. they say the most significant damage, no casualties as of yet reported in kyiv. air defense has also been activated in -- to the southwest of kyiv, another region there. unfortunately, in odessa in the south, there is not a 100% success rate for air defense. there was an industrial facility that was hit. easy images that. one person killed, two wounded, according to local officials there. so, another big night for ukraine's air defenses. and some damage reported. this clearly a strategy by russia, this attritional strategy, trying to exhaust ukraine's air defenses. and in a different way, we've seen that same attritional strategy in play in the east,

especially in bakhmut, where fighting appears to be intensifying. we're seeing that both sides claiming advances, ukraine in the past few days has said it has made gains, particularly in the suburbs to the north and south. prigozhin, the head of wagner on wednesday, saying on wednesday's forces had advanced some 260 meters. you can see sort of the very reduced speed of advance within the city. he will -- another dig against the russian military -- ministry of defense said they'd be able to do more of a warrant for russian ministry of defense forces retreating, he said. and we've got some new satellite images that show the real cost, rosemary, of the fighting in bakhmut. the intense damage. this is a cedar and a set of jobs you can see on the, west may 8th on the left, now on the right. those buildings essentially what -- wiped off the map. we've also got -- in a school in the western district of kyiv school, number 12, over bakhmut, rather, school number 12 on the right.

looks a little bit like ancient ruins. again, you can see the buildings pretty much wiped off the map. this is an area in the west of kyiv that we know has been a heavily contested, west bakhmut, rather, it has been heavily contested in recent weeks, as ukraine has moved very slowly to take back just a few city blocks. they continue to hold on. russia also not giving up. we've had reports in recent days that they have been moving new units, including paratroopers into that city, rosemary. >> shocking images for sure. clare sebastian, joining us live from london, many thanks. israeli security forces are on heightened alert as thousands of israelis prepare to march through jerusalem's muslim quarter in the coming hours. it is an annual event known as flag day, and in recent years, it's been a catalyst for bloody clashes. cnn's hadas gold has a report. >> a typical day in the old city of jerusalem. shops are bustling, tourists taking in the sites, religious

pilgrims praying. but thursday afternoon, these alleyways will be filled with thousands of marchers with israeli flags. as part of the annual jerusalem day, when israel celebrates taking control of east ruslan from jordan during the 1967 war, turning what was a divided city into what israel calls its undivided capital, but what palestinians want as a capital for their future state. this year, authorities are bracing for violence, whether on the streets, or in the skies. it was in 2021 -- >> red alert going off. >> as the thousands of israelis made their way to the old city for this very march, that palestinian militant group hamas fired rockets toward jerusalem, setting off a 11 day war. this is one of the more contentious aspects of the flag march will take place.

this is damascus gate, it is one of the main entrances to the old city for muslims. and it is through this gate that is the muslim quarter. but on thursday, thousands of israelis will be here, dancing and marching with israeli flags before making their way through to the muslim quarter. the marchers will then make their way to the western wall plaza, just below the temple mount, known to muslims as the al-aqsa mosque compound. over the years, the march has become a magnet for religious right wing nationalists, and a pretext for violence between israelis and palestinians. far-right israeli ministers like itamar ben-gvir and bezalel smotrich have announced they will join the march this year. most of the palestinians we spoke to said they will close shop and avoid the city. >> [speaking non-english] >> translator: there are many problems on this day, but we avoid problem. although it's our land and -- . but we need to keep away from them. >> much of the international

community considers east east jerusalem, where the old city's located, to be occupied territory. >> it's not good to come to us, our home, close your shop, not good. it is my land. yeah, it's my land. >> in gaza, the days-old cease-fire with militants there will be tested, as groups like hamas and islamic jihad are one again threatening to respond. a city on edge, bracing for another explosion. hadas gold, cnn, jerusalem. >> a standup comic in china is in deep trouble after getting big last with one of his jokes. government center say the punchline was offensive, and of levied a massive fine. we're live from beijing, next.

♪ ♪ ♪ >> welcome back. last weekend, a standup comic was on stage in a beijing theater when he told a silly story about two dogs chasing a squirrel. the audience laughter the punchline, but government sensors were not amused, and what happened next was definitely not a joke. cnn's steven jeong joins us now live from beijing.

so, stephen what is going to happen this comedian just for telling a joke? >> well, rosemary, not only this one punchline has cost him his career, effectively shutting down the committee that once employed, now he's going to jail, because delays we have learned that beijing police is now launching a formal investigation into the case. and in 2021, china actually enacted a law banning any sorts of insults or slanders against military personnel. and they have prosecuted people for that crime. and in previous cases, sending them to prison for at least seven months. so, that's the kind of consequences and chilling effect we're talking about. and no wonder this out for is mostly young fans, rightfully fearful this episode could spell the early death of an entire industry, which had just come from underground to mainstream. and this is of course a reminder of the extremely delicate line comedians, but also other artists and public figures have to strike in this

highly censored environment, where everything could become a taboo almost overnight. but this offending joked actually sounds a knock u.s. to most people outside of, china because this comedian, known as li haoshi, was seen as describing his thought, seeing the dog chasing the squirrel, found work capable of winning battles. the problem is the slogan was first utter in 2013 by chinese president xi jinping to describe the military. so, now this loose references costing him everything, and probably the entire industry. and that's why, rosemary, analysts say this is yet another reflection of xi jinping's governing philosophy, that, is reducing the parties absolute control in every aspect of chinese society. and that is really no joke, rosemary. >> absolutely, the dangers of not having a sense of humor. steven jiang, join us live from beijing. well, a case of two extremes with deadly consequences in northern italy. still ahead, a drought is followed by heavy flooding and takes an excruciating tool on

>> at least nine people are dead after what some call unprecedented flooding in italy. officials say parts of the emilia-romagna region received about half of their annual rainfall in 36 hours. that led to rivers spilling over their banks, and inundating thousands of acres of farmland. emergency officials say at least 13,000 people have been evacuated, and several people are missing, according to a local cnn affiliate. the flooding has led to the cancellation of sunday's formula 1 grand prix in that region. barbie nadeau has the details. >> roads turned to rivers as rain many hoped would alleviate

drought conditions now a serious threat in the central italian region of emilia-romagna. there are already victims, and rescuers are searching for the missing. hundreds of people were rescued from flooded homes, many brought to safety in rubber dinghies on flooded streets. more than 5000 people are under evacuation according to the civil protection. among them, a four month old baby and a elderly handicapped man. the region had been undergoing severe drought. in 2022 low rainfall and extreme heat depleted the river po, a crucial waterway for transport and irrigation. a winter with very little snow did little to help. and as bad as these floods are, they are only a drop in the bucket for what is needed to reverse the drought. earlier this month, a downpour swelled the po by five feet. this deluge of water will raise it even more, but it is still well below average. extreme weather events are

in the town of riverhead, on long island, has preemptively declared a state of emergency to block the city sending migrants there as well. new york mayors insists with this latest wave, more than 4200 arriving last week alone, there is no room left in the city. it is covering the cost of hotel rooms and care for the migrants. it just needs more space to temporarily house them. >> new york city's the economic engine of the state. and if we have been there for the state, the state needs to be there for us. and those who are in other parts of the state that are saying we are going to take you to court, we're going to do these emergency orders, we need to stop. we are in this together. >> we want our city back! >> new york city even using some school jobs, not physically connected to the schools themselves, as places to temporarily house margaret. the backlash from teachers, parents, and some students, has been fierce. >> i don't have anything

against immigrants. they're welcome here or whatever. but why in schools? >> so, this decision to put migrants into gyms has been extremely controversial here in new york city's. and this is the sort of jim they're putting them in, it modular gyms that are connected from the school itself. there are a few of these in the city, but because of the backlash, because of the anger this has created, the city has reversed itself after only a few days, and said they will pull all the migrants out. they've already pull them out of this gym here. but the city also says if the situation gets were's, it reserves the right to put migrants back into gyms like this. back to you. >> all right, and we will have much more on this next hour, when i speak with the executive director of the new york immigration coalition and ask what can be done. with the republican-led u.s. house has blocked an effort to immediately remove george santos from congress, despite growing pressure from the embattled republican do resign

or be expelled. it instead voted to referred the resolution to the ethics committee, after the vote, santos defended himself to reporters on the steps of the capital. when he was interrupted, by the house democrat. >> i was elected by them to come represent them. i will continue that. i have not not done my job since i got here. >> did you spot -- did you talk to speaker mccarthy ahead of the? vote >> no, i did not. i'll allow the process to play itself out. >> this party has to kick him out! he's embarrassing though! he's embarrassing, yo! you've got to get him out! you've got to expel him! save the party. >> wednesday's vote allows republicans to skirt the issue of whether to expel their colleagues for now. cnn's melanie zanona has more. >> well, house republicans bought themselves a little more time when it comes to dealing

with embattled congressman george santos. democrats were hoping to force a floor vote on a resolution that would've expelled george santos, in an effort to put every single republican on the record here. but speaker kevin mccarthy came up with an off ramp to help shield has members from taking a potentially tough vote. so, instead of voting on the resolution itself, the house voted on wednesday along party lines twos instead refer the resolution to the house ethics committee. seven democrats did vote present, most than on the house ethics committee. and george santos himself, we should point out, did vote in favor of this referral. but this is essentially a delay tactic. take a listen to how house speaker kevin mccarthy described his decision-making. >> i would like the ethics committee to move rapidly on this. i think there is enough information out there now, that they can start looking at this. and i think they could come back to congress probably faster than a court case could. >> so, it is now up to the house ethics committee to make

a recommendation about whether or not to expel george santos. this committee already was investigating george santos since march. it is a bipartisan committee. it's made up equally of republicans and democrats. but it is not a committee that is known to move very quickly. so, it could take weeks, or potentially even months, for them to make a recommendation here. and even then, the full house would still need to vote on expulsion, which requires a two thirds majority in the house in order to 60s. but in the meantime, democrats are making it crystal clear they are not going to let republicans live this referral though down. melanie zanona, cnn, capitol hill. >> south carolina's republican -led house has passed a controversial and strict bill that would ban most abortions as early as six weeks into pregnancy, when many women might not even know they're pregnant. meanwhile, republican lawmakers in neighboring north carolina overrode the governor's veto and passed a law banning most abortions after 12 weeks.

cnn's dianne gallagher has more now from raleigh. [crowd chanting] >> north carolina, the latest southern state to add new restrictions to abortion access. >> when women's health is on the line, i will never back down! >> but even a veto by the states democratic governor, roy cooper, was no match for the legislature's republican super majority. both chambers voted tuesday along party lines to override cooper's veto, banning most abortions after 12 weeks, with exceptions. also adding new steps, like multiple in-person appointments for medication abortion, and a host of restrictions, medications, and licensing republicans call mainstream. >> senate bill 20 is common sense. it balances protecting the life of the unborn child. it balances that with a woman's

need for life saving care. >> but state democrats, medical associations, and abortion advocates say the changes will put more lives in danger. >> it feels like a slap in the face, a muzzle on our mouths, and a straitjacket on our bodies. >> meanwhile in south carolina, protesters making their voices heard today, as lawmakers in the state house reconvened after debating for more than 12 hours on tuesday on an abortion bill that would ban most abortions as early as six weeks into a pregnancy. >> so, what you are currently advocating for is real. this is affecting women in your district within your state. this is detrimental. >> south carolina's general assembly finished its legislative session last week. but republican governor henry mcmaster called lawmakers back for a special session to continue to work on the bill. >> so, let me say this. it is -- some of these -- look frivolous and absurd. >> prior to tuesday's debate, democratic lawmakers filed over

1000 amendments to the proposed abortion ban, and warned they plan to try to make fellow lawmakers debate everyone. >> i want you all to know that the republicans have left the room. because women are not important enough in the state for them to stay in their seats and listen to the debate of how important women are. >> with north carolina's new law and south carolina on the cuff of passing and even stricter ban, abortion in the southeast since the dobbs decision last year is becoming increasingly difficult to access. >> and it's not just the south. lawmakers in nebraska managed to get enough votes to fooled a 12-week abortion ban into a bill that would ban puberty blockers, hormone therapy, and gender reassignment surgery in minors. there's still one vote remaining there before that would be final. in south carolina, house democrats are continuing but can only be described as a filibuster by eminent. though they do acknowledge it is likely just delaying the

inevitable in a bill that would ban abortions in six weeks if they're stay passes. here in north carolina, the new law goes into law july 1st. diane gallagher, raleigh, north carolina. >> thanks for joining us. i would back in more cnn newsroom in just a moment. do stay with us. a lot can happen in a moment. whoa. i just bought a car from carvana. like finding your perfect mix of down and monthly payments. finance your next car with carvana today. you definitely know. when he wants your attention, he makes it clear. when he wants to be left alone, he makes it obvious. but if your cat has oa pain, also known as osteoahritis pain, he may be saying “ow” in difrent ways. it's a long-lasting conditn that makes it painful r your cat to move like they once did, like when walking or climbing. red flags are everywhere. but cats are really good at hiding their pain, so you just need to know what to look for. visit catredflags.com to learn about the signs of oa pain
