"cnn this morning" starts right now.

good morning, everyone. we're going to take a minute to announce some good news. yesterday, clant collins is the new host of the 9:00 p.m. hour, opposite side of the day. >> i am. just when i got into this whole, you know, waking up at 3:30, everything. i had it down pat. >> i almost brought you a trash can and larmalarm clock. will you'll never have to set an alarm clock. >> it will be very exciting. f fun to i don't views and i will miss you. >> of course i'm going to miss you. you've been everything to me. >> i'm not far away. >> what is also great is the reporting you do every day on everything washington can really be highlighted and featured at 9:00. i'm excited for that. and i'll see you a lot. so we have a week left with kaitlan, thank goodness. let's get started with five things it know. the suspect behind that big leak

of military secrets was repeatedly warned about his mishandling of classified documents but still was never removed from his post. this is according to new court records. >> also, president biden has just landed in japan ahead of a summit with g-7 world leaders. he may ab broad. but he unfortunately can't escape the pressure of the big domestic issue that is facing him and republicans in washington. moments ago, he ignored a shouted question on the debt ceiling. >> and the cab driver that drove harry and meghan during a paparazzi chase says the couple was nervous and scared. harry and meghan describe the ordeal as a near catastrophic chase. and montana is the first state to ban tiktok altogether. the law, however, does not go into effect until january. legal challenges, of course, expected. >> and a who done it has now been solved. the fbi has charged a minnesota man for stealing dorothy's ruby red slippers from the wizard of oz over 20 years ago. cnn this morning starts right

now. >> who steal's dorothy's slippers? >> can you imagine if you thought you got away with it for 20 years and then the fbi knocks on your door. >> president biden in japan for major summit with allies. at the same time, the clock is running out back home to raise the debt limit. moments ago, reporters tried to ask the president about it during a meeting with japan's prime minister. >> the bottom line, mr. prime minister, is that on our country's stand together, we stand stronger. and blif the whole world is safer when we do. thank you again for having me here today. we look forward to the next several days.

>> let's go. >> good morning. thank you. >> that was hard to hear. the main question is, mr. president, can you guarantee the u.s. won't default? >> i don't think any of the other g-7 leaders he's meeting with in other countries have a debt ceiling. >> they don't have it. >> what is going on? why can't you come to an agreement on this? >> get it together. >> that's right. we'll talk to phil mattingly about what this looks like for the u.s. on the world stage right now. president biden, as you said, he didn't respond to the shouting questions. he's facing really tough juggling act right now at home. this is a summit with g-7 leaders that was previously scheduled. he is under pressure to give ukraine fighter jets they believe would help turn the tide against russia's brutal invasion. this trip was also supposed to showcase unity against china. but the white house is cutting the trip shoert by two stops so he can race back to washington for talks on the debt ceiling.

there is two weeks left before the u.s. would potentially default on debt. phil mattingly is live traveling with president biden. obviously, phil, we know the president has a busy schedule. this is a rare moment where the president is on a world stage. the domestic issues followed him abroad. >> yeah, kaitlan, what you saw there in terms of ignoring that question is the press is trying to get some kind of answer related to what is going on back home is just an acute window into a delicate balancing act that will define the next several days. on two fronts in march the on going war in ukraine from russia's invasion and the continual rise, tensions in major issues when it comes to china will be central. and, yet, particularly on the latter part, the president having to cut the short trip. he's not going to new guinea or

australia underscores how difficult things are. you would know this well. bruce reid, the deputy chief of staff doesn't often go on foreign trips. he's on this trip because of his central role in the debt ceiling negotiations. but the focus, very clearly, will be on those central issues with ukraine. with china, and with g-7 leaders which have remained remarkably united throughout the course of russia's invasion of ukraine, in terms of economic sanctions and in terms of assistance to ukraine and most particularly, in terms of defensive assistance you've crane. there is still very serious issues to deal with on that front as well. but also, the president, since he's been in office, has been trying to pull particularly european leaders into an alliance in terms of posture as it relates to china. that will be a focal point as well. certainly issues back home. the issues here are critical and what the president wants to focus on. >> at his first g-7 in 202 1shgs

t -- 2021, the message is america is back. now he's having to cut this trip short and he's got a mess at home when it comes to our economy. >> yeah. it's really interesting. sbeg some european diplomats who were already in town a couple hours ago. this is my question to them. it really has been for the last several years. the level of unsettled anxiety in the four years preceding this administration, particularly with european allies, one of the priorities when he came in, kaitlan knows this as well as anybody, is trying to make clear that in his words america is back. america is back on the world stage. america is back in a leadership position. my question over the last day or two has been do you think that's actually the case when two things are going on. one, we have this domestic issue with when it comes to the debt limit. a real possibility that u.s. defaults for the first time. and also the fact that former

president is leading republican polls to be the nominee by a significant margin. how does that make officials feel? one european diplomat told me, we're used to it when it came to the debt ceiling. they assume there will be a resolution and understand what's the president has to do. the official said, just don't want to talk about things that i don't want to think about right now. so it's all behind scenes. will they bring that stuff publicly? probably not. they want to address the now and worry about the future later. >> phil mattingly, thank you very much. now we want to go to an cnn exclusive report. there is evidence coming into jack smith, the special counsel, and his investigation into former donald trump's mishandling of classified documents. national archives is set to hand over 16 records showing that the former president and his advisors knew about the correct way to declassify documents.

that comes after donald trump claimed he declassified them automatically. >> you can declassify them even by thinking about it. >> i have the right to declassify documents. the process is automatic if i take them with me. by the way, they become automatically declassified when i took them. >> how can you declassify them? >> let me ask you -- >> paula reid joins us now. obviously, they do not become automatically declassified. what is it that special counsel is getting at? we see how this investigation is ramping up. what is happening here? >> the special counsel is looking at whether anyone should be charged with mishandling classified documents. and in order to do that, prosecutors have to prove that an individual knowingly removed them without proper authorization. according to this letter, exclusively obtained by our colleague jamie gangel, the archives reveal that these 16

records could give us insight into just how much the former president was aware of the process. they say, quote, the 16 records in question all reflect communications involving close presidential advisors. some of them directed to you personally, referring to trump, concerning whether, why, how you should declassify certain classified records. these could potentially establish his awareness of the process. but he and his attorneys have argued that he auto matically declassified these. the that is not something the courts contemplate. this is all part of the work that the special counsel is doing right now. >> what does that mean in terms of whether they will get those documents? >> it's a great question, poppy. as of right now, according to this letter, the archives is going to hand this over on the 24th unless the trump team moves to intervene. i'm told by a source familiar with the thinking that they might try to get a court to intervene here. they say they don't expect to be

successful as they have not had a great track record. with block smith from getting a lot of evidence. but they may still file a challenge just to protect what i'm told are constitutional and presidential protections. they can continue to delay this investigation and historically, the former president used that as a tactic in most the legal entanglements. >> this comes after we learned that national archives officials have testified back in march that all administrations dating back to reagan mishandled classified documents, some in very different ways. paula reid, thank you so much. >> great reporting from paula and jamie and that team. this morning, prosecutors say the 21-year-old air national guardsman accused of leaking highly sensitive military documents on social media was actually warned repeatedly not to do that. warned he was mishandling classified intelligence. air force mem oranda show where

he was warned. i could not believe -- i couldn't believe this headline when i read it. there were multiple warnings and still he had access to all of this? >> that's right. the next warning came in october of 2022. he was in a briefing essentially asking very deep questions into intelligence that had nothing to do with his job. they told him he needs to focus on his actual duties which, of course, were related to i.t. he was an i.t. person for the air national guard there in massachusetts. there was slinl a cease-and-desist order for him to stop doing the deep dives into this kind of intelligence. then in january of 2023 of this

year, he was again observed doing these kind of deep dives into intelligence. he was warned again by his superiors not to do it. it does not seem like he was actually reprimanded at that point by his commanders. it was noted he was looking at things and looking at intelligence he was not supposed to be doing. we should note that the commanders there actually offered him a new position if he wanted to look into this intelligence more, if he wanted more kind of exposure to it in a way that come with his duties. after three strikes against him, they offered to move him into a new job. we did reach out to the air national guard for comment. they cannot comment right now because it is an an going investigation. but they did us is two commanders in the unit pending the outcome of this investigation. and the entire intelligence

mission was taken away from this unit pending the completion of the investigation. we'll see how this shakes out on friday when he has his hearing. a judge is going to determine whether or not he's going to stay behind bars. prosecutors arguing, look, he needs to stay there because clearly he has a disregard here for this kind of classified and national security information. >> that's interesting how that would play into the judge's decision. thank you for the reporting. >> also this morning, montana just become the first state in the u.s. to ban tiktok on personal devices. the governor there said that he signed the bill on wednesday to protect montanans' personal and private data being gathered by china. the popular app is owned by china-based byte diadance and t is concern they could access data via tiktok for spying purposes. there is no evidence that they actually accessed personal information of u.s.-based tiktok

users. it's a growing concern happening on capitol hill and in washington. tiktok tells cnn they plan to defend the rights of users in montana. tiktok has 7,000 employees in the u.s. i should note the ban goes into effect next year. it is almost certainly going to face legal challenges. >> as i was reading, a $10,000 fine in this law for people that break the law. that's fascinating. >> and it's going to have a court challenge. this is about even personal use. you see a bunch of governors ban it on government devices. but when it odometers personal use, there is a lot of concern about it. it's been floated to have a national ban if it happens. who knows? >> it will be interesting if other states follow montana's lead as well. speaking of other states and other key issues, let's talk about south carolina. one step closer this morning to banning most abortions after just six weeks. last night the state house, they voted 82-33 to send the bill back to the republican-controlled senate.

democrats tried to stall that process. the bill would ban most abortions after early cardiac activity is detected. a time before many women even know they are pregnant. there are a few exceptions, fetal abnormalities, the health and life of the mother and exceptions up to 12 weeks for cases of rape, incest and/or unwanted pregnancy. good morning. are there other legislative options left for democrats? is this it? >> looks like this is it. unless the republican-controlled senate unexpectedly reverses course once it gets the house bill. that seems highly unlikely. the one option they did have, poppy, in the south carolina house was to delay passage of the six week abortion ban. given that republicans have a soup mare jort, it was inevitable that this -- simple majority it was inevitable that they would debate for two days. this is a contentious issue

within the republican party in south carolina. both the republicans control both chambers. but for months they were at an impasse. they disagreed over just how restrictive an abortion ban should be in the state. in fact, a few weeks ago the senate actually blocked a near total abortion ban where you saw several republican women voting against it. prior to that, in february, the senate did pass a less restrictive abortion ban which was this 474 bill which was a six-week abortion ban. now the house has done the same. where do things go from here? this bill which has a few changes to it now, goes back to the south carolina senate. then once the bill passes the senate, then it goes to the republican governor who indicated he will sign this bill. and until then, it is legal to have an abortion in south carolina. >> thank you for the update.

so conflicting accounts emerging from what prince harry and -- very conflicting. they describe as a near catastrophic car chase here in new york city. we'll hear from one of the cab drivers who intervened. also, fellow new york lawmakers bowman and cortez, quite a moment here. heckling the embattled republican george santosen open the steps yesterday. we'll show you. it was quite a screaming match, actually. we'll show you more of this video next. >> the party has to kick him out! he's embarrassing y'all! so adding “and” student might feel daunting. national universrsity is here o support all your “ands.” national university. supporting the whole you.

minutes in that journey. basically suggesting we shouldn't over emphasize what the taxi driver experienced. longer, more than hour, two hour journey was a chase. we know that it was a chase. it wasn't a high speed chase. we learned that. and to be fair to the sussexes, they never said it was. the this is all trauma tiesing to trauma tiesing for what happened to harry. >> 25 years after the death of dianne diana, princess of wales, harry and meghan say they were chased by paparazzi in a near cat strorveg car chase. prince harry, megan and her mother attended the women of vision awards in new york city. meghan was honored for global advocacy to empower women and

girls. but it wasn't until they left the event that things allegedly escalated. a local law enforcement source tells cnn that a, quote, a swarm of paparazzi followed them in cars, motorcycles and scooters. the couple waited until they could safely leave. chris sanchez, a member of the duke and duchess sussex security detail said they changed cars more than once. they were in a black car and then a yellow cab. the driver of that cab said he noticed the paparazzi before as the couple's security guard started to tell him the address to drive to. >> and as soon as he was about to say where they were going, then the paparazzi stormed the taxi. >> he says he saw six paparazzi total. >> when they started taking pictures, somebody said oh, my god. and then the look on their faces, they were nervous and

scared. >> that's what the sussex's bodyguard told him to go to the police precinct. they say the paparazzi made the transport of harry and meghan challenging. but there were no reports of collisions, injuries, or arrests. the couple's security team say the duke and duchess and their convoy were pursued by the paparazzi for more than two hours. allegedly resulting in multiple near collisions with other drivers, pedestrians, and two nypd officers. adding the sussexes who war staying at a private residence did not want to compromise the security at their friend's home. new york city mayor eric adams questioned the validity of that two-hour time frame. he says nothing like this should ever happen in a city as dense as the big apple. calling the incident reckless and irresponsible. >> you shouldn't be speeding anywhere. but this is a densely populated

city. and i think all of us, i don't think is many of us who don't recall how his mom died. >> we heard from one of the agency that's uses photos from the photographers that were chasing that car. suggesting that one of the cars in the royal motorcade was driving recklessly. there are different perspective on this. in london, no comment from any of the palaces and the royal engagements are justini continu as normal this morning. >> thank you for that reporting. the man who is accused of killing four university of idaho students back in november has been indicted by a grand jury. the latest on that case ahead. just without the lactose. delicious too. just ask my old friend, kevin. nothing like enjoying a cold one while watching the game. who's winning? no idea. real milk. real delicious. and don't forget to try some delicious,

the man that killed four idaho students is facing four counts of murder and one count of burglary. he is set to appear in court on monday. he is accused of stabbing four students to death at their home

near the school. it shocked the campus and the small community there. it sent cops ton a month and a half long search for him. what do we know about this indictment and what's next for brian? >> what we know is we're surprised. this came out of the blue. now prosecutors under the law can go to a grand jury at any time. and the state of the case right now is that it's in the lower court to be bound over to the district court for trial. it is set for the end of june, week of june. witnesses take the stand. people would listen to their testimony, cross-examination by the defense. very out in the open. unbeknownst to anybody, they convened a grand jury that heard testimony but will never know who testified because the document came out yesterday. all the witnesses are sealed. and the grand jury is very secret. it is secret testimony.

and so they determine, the grand jurors, from that community, that the case should be bound over for trial. now it is in district court. >> it is surprising that you would convene a grand jury. >> at this point. they could have done it right away. they could have done it right after he was charged. and, so, remember there is a very encompassing gag order here, right? parties can't talk. the only way you can get information is through the legal documents. the pros and cons to that are that you want a fair trial. he deserves a fair trial. prosecutors don't want to taint the jury pool. they want the jury from moscow, that's the community where this happened. that's the point. you also have the constitutional rights that people deserve to

know. >> keep us updated if there are any more developments. >> i will. >> drama, literal, actual drama back and forth heckling on the steps of the u.s. capitol after the house voted to expel congressman george santos to the ways and means committee. some new york democrats made sure they were heard as santos addressed reporters on the house steps. >> save yourself! >> if i took -- >> you're embarrassing. new yorkers need better! you got to go, man. come on. >> how is your ethics play going? >> that was new york congressman jamal bowman heckling santos. the scene continuing as georgia republican marjorie taylor greene stepped in to defend santos. >> he's embarrassing y'all.

>> biden is embarrassing you completely. >> save the party. the party is hanging by a thread. >> we have to get rid of biden. save the country! impeach biden. impeach biden! >> lauren fox on capitol hill this morning. quite a scene in front of everyone. >> yeah. quite a scene. that is the same staircase the lawmakers walk out toward every night when they leave after votes. so it just shows you sort of the expl explosion of motions that came out yesterday to expel george santos from congress back to the house ethics committee. that was a punt. some democrats put it, a copout from republican leadership because democrats brought a privilege resolution they hope would be a vote to actually oust george santos from congress once

and for all. that would have taken two-thirds votes. instead, what they got was just a simple majority vote over this question of whether or not this matter should be referred back to the house ethics committee. that passed along party lines yesterday. george santos defending himself after the vote. here's what he said. >> i was elected by them to come represent them. i'll continue to do that. i have not not done my job since i got here. i can chew and walk -- i can chew gum and walk at the same time. i'll continue to do that. >> it's important to remember that george santos is not colo currently serving on any committees. it is important to note that house ethics committee is looking into this issue already. was looking into this issue before the vote yesterday. to refer the question of expulsion back to them. but kevin mccarthy made clear to our colleague that the house

ethics committee is going to look into this. and does not care whether or not the department of justice is also looking into it. he said that would not affect their decision to continue their investigation. that's a very important note here. that could point to the facts that the ethics committee is continuing to pursue this despite a federal investigation. >> really interesting. lauren fox, thank you. >> also this morning, ukraine is saying that they downed 29 out of 30 cruise missiles launched by russia and what authorities in ukraine are saying is a country-wide air attack. it is the ninth one we've seen just this month alone. only 18 days into may. we'll take you to the ground ahead.

we're tracking the latest developments out of ukraine. explosions were heard throughout

the capitol of kyiv. authorities said there was a country wide air attack. this as fierce fighting continued around that city of bakmud that we've been telling you about. ukraine is gaining ground there in recent days. and cnn obtained new satellite imagery that shows the devastating toll that fighting has taken on the city over the last year alone. this is happening as ukraine is preparing for that long awaited counter offensive to reclaim occupied land that russia took when they invaded ukraine. with us now to talk more about this is retired army major mark lions. we're talking about this key city that they've been fighting over. we talked about it last week with the russian meryr mersonar. this is a year ago. it looks completely torched. what happened? what weapons were used to take it from this to this?

>> kaitlan, example of russian war crime. this is a firebomb, weapons designed to do nothing but cause fire and destruction here against civilian targets. this was a civilian apartment building. you can see the entire vegetation is gone on both sides, on this side here, buildings are destroyed. this is just one example of many other examples of the russians using weapons against civilians that they shouldn't be doing. >> that's something they would never typically use in an area you can see homes. you can see parks? >> right. >> right. there is a certain system that is brought to the battlefield. it was brought in strategically by the senior leaders of russian military to create a weapon of terror for the civilians in that area. >> all this is what makes people wonder about the ukrainian counter offensive that we've been talking about. it was expected to happen in the spring. now we're here through mid may.

what is your sense? >> i think there is a pause taking place rightfully so as the ukraine military is training its troops overseas. in order for the counter offensive to be effective, they have the option of when and where it takes place. if you look at this border where the ukrainian and russian troops are, i think the counter offensive, when it finally happens, cuts in this way. and threatens crimea. until the ukraine military can threat and what russia is doing in the south here, the russian military is not going to stop. >> you think it's more towards the south than the east? >> i do. i think there is a little faint taking place right now and disinformation for what is going on. the battle is a classic of ukraine resilience and russian military failure. it is feeding into that narrative. it shows if they put too much effort towards that, ukrainians will turn around and cut forces in half here and really threaten cry mira. >> as you know, president biden

is in japan right now. he is meeting with g-7 leaders. ukraine is one of the topics they're talking about. the white house is coming under pressure once again for the f-16 fighter jets made by lockheed martin to provide them to ukraine. what is your sense of whether or not they're going to give on that? >> i don't think they're going to give. it's a long time frame. 18 months to get them to the battlefield to be effective and train pilots and logistic supply chain. they need helicopters. they need ways to move troops around the battlefield quickly. despite the armor systems given to it them, you bring helicopters to that counter offensive right now, it will allow shock effect and allow troops to move across the battlefield and move across the river. i this think conversation gets tabled again. >> so those are the argues against sending them, the time it would take to train and get them there and how long it would take before they could use them. what is the argument for sending the f-16s? >> sends a signal to russians that european communities, we've seen the brits and the dutch have already said they're

willing to train the pilots and do things with them. it's more of a strategic weapon. the bottom line, this is leaning more and more to ukraine needing the helicopters. >> do to see that and that striking image of before and half, seeing what russiana has done. >> it is striking. now this -- scenes like this, what we're going to play for you, are happening at little league games across america. parents lashing out from the stands, even getting violent. the impact it's having on umpires in youth sports. oh, my goodness. rapid wrinkle repair® smooths the look off fifine lines in 1-week, deepep wrinkles in 4. so you can kiss wrinkles goodbye! neutrogena® my most important kitchen n tool? my brain. so i choose neuriva plus. unlike some others, neuriva plus is a multitasker pporting 6 key indicators of brain health. to help keep me sharp.

there is an expectation that, you know, every game is do or die for their kids' future in this sport. >> reporter: the physical and verbal abuse is having an impact. an umpire shortage. the number of youth umpires in the u.s. has dropped. at the high will school level, there are nearly 20,000 fewer referees across all sports than before the pandemic. but with signs those numbers may tick up this year. >> we've suspended parents from the park. >> reporter: how long? >> for one game, two games to begin with. fit beco if it becomes worse, we asked them to not come back. >> referee: in this game, the robins are playing the orioles. 21-year veteran umpire carl carney is calling this little league game. >> that was low, ball four. >> reporter: he's a calm boss. >> all right. the here we go. >> reporter: which works in his

involved, yelling thing s at th umpire? >> they should be into the game but i think when they yell at the umpire it's unnecessary. >> reporter: unnecessary because why? >>s can a kids game. kids are just trying to have fun. >> reporter: when adults behave badly, the kids lose. >> i have to stop the game. nobody wants that. i can also understood that a parent, you know, wanting their child to, you know, to succeed. but not at that price. >> in the end, the robins beat the orioles for first place. really, everyone is a winner. it was a clean game by the kids and the parents. >> good game. have a great day. good game. good game. >> and this verbal and physical abuse by parents and coaches against umpires is happening across all sports. it's in soccer, softball, basketball, and some of the parents were telling me that
