10:00 am
today president biden honoring our fallen heroes. the commander in chief taking part in a memorial day ceremony at arlington national cemetery. you see him laying a wreath at the tomb of the unknown soldier. vice president kamala harris and defense secretary lloyd austin were also participating. the president later paying tribute to gold star families, calling on the memory of his late son beau who served in the military before dying of cancer. tomorrow marks the anniversary of his death. thanks for joining us on "inside politics." "cnn news central" starts right now.
10:01 am
so they have a deal, but do they have the votes? right now the race to get party holdouts onboard with the debt ceiling agreement, that potentially catastrophic default just days away. we'll have the latest. plus, what caused part of an apartment building to collapse? rescue dogs are now scanning for any sign of survivors in davenport, iowa, as the city's fire chief says the building is structurally up snsound posing threat to his teams. we'll follow those and more stories coming in right here to cnn news central. so some good news over the weekend. president biden and speaker mccarthy face another heavy lift after hammering out a deal in principle to raise the nation's debt ceiling.
10:02 am
they have to get their parties to support it. based on early reaction, it may not be entirely easy. the house vote is expected on wednesday. hard liners from both sides are signaling they at least will not support the agreement. so here's part of what's in it. it suspends the debt ceiling through all of next year. that allows lawmakers to avoid a similar game of chicken during the election cycle. it also capped 2024 spending, broadens work requirements for food stamp recipients and claws back tens of billions of dollars of unspent covid relief funds. what it does not do is touch social security and defense spending or the tax code. jeremy diamond is at the white house. jeremy, president biden once again achieved a compromise with republicans to the chagrin of some members of his own party. tell us what the white house view of this is now and do they have the votes to get this over the finish line?
10:03 am
>> reporter: jim, they certainly understand they have a difficult task ahead. now that they have a deal both the president and the speaker of the house have to sell this deal to their respective caucuses. on the white house side there has been an acknowledgement throughout this entire process that this was going to be a bipartisan deal. part of what they communicated to the speaker is, look, this has to be a compromise because we'll have to sell some of the members of our caucus. the president yesterday acknowledging that notion that this is a compromise and not everyone is going to be happy. >> the agreement also represents a compromise which means no one got everything they want. but that's the responsibility of governing. and this is a deal that's good news, i believe you'll see, for the american people. the agreement prevents the worst possible crisis, a default, for the first time in our nation's history. an economic recession, retirement accounts devastated, millions of jobs lost. it also protects key priorities
10:04 am
and accomplishments and values that congressional democrats and i fought long and hard for. >> reporter: and that is one of the key messages that the white house has been emphasizing in a series of briefings and calls to democratic lawmakers focusing on not what is in this deal but what is not in this deal. the things that the president was able to protect in terms of the climate provisions and the inflation reduction act, his student loan forgiveness programs and the threat of even stiffer work requirements that house republicans were pushing for. it's already clear that a slew of progressive democrats just are not going to vote for this bill but there are some glimmers of hope for the white house in getting this passed as you see some centrist democrats, including the new democrat coalition who have suggested that they are interested in voting for this bill. so still some more work to do here for the white house bethank you do believe they can get this passed ultimately. jim. >> let's go to the hill. lauren fox, you and i were talking just days ago about the
10:05 am
possibility mccarthy and biden didn't get to agreement. they have over the weekend. so can both of them get the votes necessary to get this over the top. what are democrats telling you and republicans telling you about their head counting? >> reporter: well, kevin mccarthy has argued that he is going to have the votes, that he believes that he might even have a majority of his conference supporting this package. he is going to lose some members in his right flank, that is absolutely clear. a number of them already coming out against this bill. but the reality is this was always going to be a coalition of republicans and democrats who were in the middle of their respective caucuses. and one thing that is taking place right now is lawmakers are really understanding that this is the only option, this is the only game in town when it comes to preventing a catastrophic default and that is really moving a lot of members to the yes category. that doesn't mean that the whip teams on both sides are not working furiously to try to drive up the number of votes that they could get in the house
10:06 am
of representatives on wednesday. we're going to see an early test tomorrow when the house rules committee votes. there are a number of conservatives who mccarthy put on that committee as part of his concession to win the speakership. they could become troublemakers on that committee. but the key thing to remember here is this vote in the house is going to look very different than a lot of party line votes that we have seen in the house of representatives up to this point. kevin mccarthy was asked by our colleague earlier today if he was worried about backlash from conservatives if he puts this bill on the floor. he said he didn't want to get into hypotheticals. he said he is not worried about that. >> so on the democratic side, is it possible the democrats embarrass the president here and don't give him the votes that he needs to get this across the finish line? >> reporter: it's important to keep in mind, jim, that this new dems coalition is dozens of house democrats. the key must benumber that is ns
10:07 am
282. the white house is trying to get them comfortable, hold one-on-one phone calls to try to drive up the numbers on their side as well. of course, you know, both sides want to make sure that they have dozens of members behind them, that's what they need to pass this. but, jim, the reality is democrats will have a number of members backing this proposal. >> lauren fox on the hill, we know you'll be counting votes as well. boris, over to you. >> let's dig deeper into the economic impact of it with cnn economics and political commentator katherine ramppell. thanks for spending part of your memorial day with us. you wrote that all of this drama creates minimal changes to fiscal policies that probably would have happened anyway. so in your view all of this was unnec unnecessary? >> i think it was unnecessary. worse than that, i think it was
10:08 am
destructive. look, congress would have had to negotiate a budget at some point this year. that's su poesed to happen every year. sometimes it's in a more organized process than otherwise. but with divided government there was going to be some sort of compromise. probably something along the lines of what we ultimately got. so basically flat spending, flat domestic spending, a little bump to defense spending and some tweaks around the edges to a bunch of domestic programs. i think that's probably where we would have been absent this brinksmanship. with the brinksmanship we ended up in the same place but caused a lot of damage along the way to our global reputation. there was economic turmoil. it could have been worse if we had defaulted but biden had to cut short his trip to asia to deal with this temper tantrum. i don't think the process that went on here was helpful for our
10:09 am
long-term misfiscal outlook or geopolitical influence. >> this sort of fiasco plays out every few years. i wonder if it's time to get rid of the debt ceiling. neither party honors it, they keep raising it. >> yeah. i have been arguing for years that there is no purpose, no legitimate purpose that the debt ceiling serves. it's sort of this vestigal part of legislation that was created about a hundred years ago actually to make it easier for treasury to borrow. now it has certainly outlived its purpose and only exists to be held as a hostage. congress every year decides spending and tax decisions. that should be the end of the discussion. if they want to control deficits and in fact i think they should do things to get our long-term deficits under control, that's the realm in which they should make these kinds of decisions, not after the fact threatening
10:10 am
to not pay our bills. i think the debt limit is extraneous. almost every other country in the world does not do it this way. they say once we pass our appropriations and tax decisions, that's it. so i don't understand what purpose this serves. i think it's disappointing in fact that more lawmakers, including more democrats, have not come out in favor of eliminating the debt limit so we don't have these crises. >> catherine, one way to address those deficits you mentioned is to create and collect more revenue. yet republicans got a concession that the bill slashes some of the new irs funding that was just passed. that takes away money that could have represented more revenue, doesn't it? >> yes. so irs money has a very high return on investment. the estimates vary, but it's like for every dollar that the irs spends, for example, on enforcement, they bring several
10:11 am
dollars back in in return because they're going out and collecting bills that are opened to uncle sam essentially. if you look at how the congressional budget office scores these things, how lots of other independent institutions score these funding measures, they always show that it more than pays for itself. so here by taking some of that money away from the internal revenue service, that will actually cost the united states more in the long run that will have to be made up for either in higher tax rates or spending cuts of some kind. if weaver not collecting the taxes already legally owed, you have to make up for that shortfall somewhere else. so defunding the irs, defunding the tax police is not where you would start if you were really interested in controlling the united states' long-term fiscal challenges. >> catherine rampell, always appreciate your perspective. thanks for joining us. >> thank you. >> jim. you might have noticed the
10:12 am
holiday weekend coming to an end sadly, but its record-setting travel rush still going. lots of folks out there. the number of people flying this memorial day weekend was the highest in more than three years. the roads are also pretty packed. pete muntean is at reagan national airport. we were talking in the last week, there's going to be a big rush at tsa, faa doing everything they can to handle it. how have they done? >> reporter: they have done pretty well, jim. the numbers are huge thanks in part to the people still traveling right now. we've been through the first wave of folks leaving and now we're in the second wave of folks coming back. the numbers so far have been really big. 2.72 million people screened by the tsa at airports nationwide on friday. that is the highest number we've seen since the depths of the pandemic day after day, actually even bigger than the same day back before the pandemic. tsa anticipates 2.6 million people at airports nationwide
10:13 am
tonight. so it seems that they will bump up if not exceed the 10 million passenger forecast between thursday and today put out by the tsa last week. the faa handling about 42,000 flights today. not as big as what we saw last week although still a big number. we're seeing ground stops being put into place by the faa in san francisco due to low cloud ceilings. we'll see as the day goes on. the good news, though, is that the cancellations and delays remain relatively low. there's only been 70 cancellations nationwide and a few hundred delays. over the weekend, things were pretty small. about one in five cancellations when you compare it to the same period last year. memorial day weekend kicked off that summer of cancellations. there were 2700 last memorial day weekend, 55,000 between memorial day and labor day. so airlines may have cdone a
10:14 am
pretty good job of staffing up. airlines have added about 48,000 workers in the same -- in the last year. so it seems like things are going pretty well. never say never, we're not totally out of the rush just yet. >> that's a good trending line, though. adding 48,000 workers is another good measure of where the job market is, right? pete muntean at reagan national, we know you'll check in if things turn for the worse. russia launching a daytime attack on ukraine. explosions heard over kyiv as children scramble in the streets for cover. we'll take you there, live. plus, it is one of the catchiest slogans in business. like a good neighbor, state farm is there. that is unless you live in california. we'll tell you why they are eliminating home insurance sales in the state. and the president of the microsoft is becoming the latest tech figure to call for regulation on ai. we have his warning just minutes away.

10:19 am
we have new dramatic video to share with you from ukraine of kids running for cover. this is in kyiv as air raid sirens are blaring with russia launching a rare daytime attack on the capital. watch this. you can hear the explosions overhead across the city following a massive barrage of drone strikes this weekend. officials describing it as the biggest attack of this kind to date. most of the incoming missiles and drones were shot down according to ukraine's military, but this is now the 16th time this month the city has been the target of attack. let's take you now live to eastern ukraine with cnn's sam kiley. is russia simply trying to deplete ukraine's air defenses. >> reporter: i think they're
10:20 am
trying to do two things. one is exactly that, boris, to constantly try to overwhelm and deplete ukraine's air defenses, now particularly as ukraine keeps continuing to flag its plans to have a summer counteroffensive against russia. in the case of kyiv, i think they're also trying to break through those air defenses and rattle the command and control structure, starting at the top with president zelenskyy. and then these daytime attempts to fire the missiles which are very potent surface-to-surface and cruise type missiles is clearly an effort to go after the civilian population in the same way we've seen relentlessly going on in the south at kherson and at the beginning of the war in kharkiv and right across the nation. so there's quite a lot going on there in terms of what the russian tactic may be with these mass attacks. but it's very clear that the focus at the moment, they're trying to put it all almost on
10:21 am
kyiv, whereas in the past they went after, if you'll recall a few months ago they were going after the energy structures, again, to try to break the will of the ukrainian people. everybody here in this country is waiting for the signal of when this counteroffensive is going to begin because it's going to be a brutal and bloody offensive, whatever happens. of course the ukrainians are desperate for a breakthrough against the russians. >> sam kiley, thanks so much. overseas, japan is on high alert after north korea announced plans to launch a satellite between the end of may and june 11th. that prompted a strong reaction from both japan and south korea. will ripley is following developments. will, you've been covering this for a long time. a satellite test is actually an icbm test in terms of the rocket involved here. is that the concern we're
10:22 am
hearing from south korean and japanese leaders and do they believe this is a north korean advancement? >> reporter: absolutely, jim. this is basically the same technology that you use to launch a satellite that you would also use to launch a nuclear warhead that could potentially reach anywhere in the world, including the mainland u.s. that is why you have japan now saying they're going to prepare what they call destructive measures. they are saying this will shoot this thing down if it enters into japanese airspace. it wouldn't be unprecedented for a north korean missile to fly over japanese airspace. the air raid sirens went off in hokkaido. it happened in 2017 and happened again last year. but we haven't seen a satellite launch like this since 2016. they did it first in 2012 and four years later in 2016. i went to north korea and met with the scientists charged with developing this technology and they insisted to me that this is for peaceful purposes.
10:23 am
and yet kim jong-un himself said this latest launch will be a military reconnaissance satellite. you have south korea calling this provocation, illegal and threatens peace. they had an emergency national security council meeting to discuss all of this. so people are bracing themselves for anything that could start from wednesday through june 11th, a major provocation and escalation from north korea, jim. >> it's amazing how much their nuclear program has advanced. it's something multiple u.s. presidents have said they'll never allow and here we. search and rescue operations are under way in iowa after part of an apartment building collapses. we'll show you the rescues and why officials say there is still cause for concern. plus, rats in cages, a padlocked fridge, feces and bugs. police arresting two parents after find seven kids living in deplorable conditions.

right now, search dogs are scanning the rubble of this partially collapsed apartment building in davenport, iowa, searching for more survivors. you can see the smoke that blanketed the area when six
10:29 am
floors suddenly dropped yesterday. d davenport's mayor says teams have saved more than eight people and taken more than a dozen others to safety. one survivor was visiting a friend when suddenly everything went dark. listen. >> i just thank god that i was able to make it out of there. it was like a big explosion, like a bomb. the bomb pushed me to the side. it pushed me to the side, i just ran in there and grabbed him and got him out of there, got him to safety. >> cnn's adrienne broaddus is covering this for us. city officials say they were lucky no one was killed in this incident. have they given any reason for the building's partial collapse? >> reporter: boris, authorities say it's too early to tell why this building collapsed. we do know there were permits in place to perform repairs to the exterior walls, but the fire chief says determining exactly
10:30 am
what happened here will be, quote, a lengthy process. meanwhile as you mentioned, at least eight people were rescued. the most recent rescue happened overnight and that man is in the hospital. those canine dogs you mentioned, boris, are looking for signs of life but it's important to underscore the fire chief said to their knowledge no one is trapped inside of that building. if anyone is missing a loved one, they have been encouraged to call 911. meanwhile, officials say they have done numerous inspections based on complaints raised by concerned residents. >> but there has been some complaints of the structure. we issued notice and orders to have those repaired. the building owner hired their own engineering firm to direct them on the repairs that needed to be made. >> reporter: the main concern at this hour is the stability of the structure. even as crews were there
10:31 am
working, debris was falling. so you can imagine they want to consult with their engineers and figure out what the next steps will be when it comes to that apartment building, boris. >> incredible that no one was killed. we hope those residents are getting the help that they need. adrienne broaddus, thanks for the reporting. like a good neighbor, state farm is there. more like elsewhere if you're looking to buy a home in california now. state farm says it is stopping all new home insurance sales in the golden state. the reason is the risk of wildfire as well as construction costs. over the past five years california has seen an average of 7,000 wildfires per year. that has scorched millions of acres and many homes as well. matt egan has the details. matt, i imagine this is a numbers game here for state farm, but really an alarming conclusion for homeowners looking to insure. >> reporter: jim, this is an
10:32 am
alarming conclusion. think about this, state farm is the country's biggest home insurer and it's saying it doesn't want new business in the country's most populous state. the cost of rebuilding has skyrocketed. two, the need to rebuild has gone up because of all of these wildfires. and three, reinsurance has been harder to get. reinsurance is how insurers spread the risk. it's like insurance for insurers but that's harder and harder to get because of the first two issues. now of course inflation is not a problem special to california. that is a national phenomenon if not a global one. but it's the wildfire issue that has really become a particular problem in california. as you mentioned, that state is averaging 7,000 wildfires per year. these wildfires are consuming more than two million acres a
10:33 am
year, damaging or even destroying countless homes and businesses along the way. scientists blame the climate crisis for the intensity of these fire seasons. now, in a statement, state farm says, quote, it's necessary to take these actions to improve the company's financial strength. and state farm, they note that this does not impact existing customers nor does it impact the company's auto business. still, though, state farm is just the latest insurer to take a step back from california. last year aig reportedly decided not to renew insurance on thousands of homes in california. chubb, which is the state's biggest insurer for high-end homes, that has also done the same thing. and, you know, it feels like for decades really, wildfires were kind of just looked at as the cost of doing business in california for insurance companies. but the problem has gotten so
10:34 am
bad that we're now seeing a growing number of insurers throw in the towel and basically say it's just not worth the risk at this point. and here's the problem, though. for consumers that means they're going to have fewer choices and the remaining players will have that much more power to raise prices. so it does seem like this is going to be just another reason why life is going to get even more expensive in what is already one of the country's most expensive states. >> well, it's not just a wildfire thing, you've seen that with flood insurance in other states, particularly low-lying states. climate change, economic impact. matt egan, thanks so much. let's talk to someone who knows about the environmental impact of all of this. cnn's chad myers is here. chad, let's look at the fire risk in california specifically. how big is it, what do the numbers show us and how much has it increased in recent years? >> i will take this piece by piece. i heard in the piece that we
10:35 am
just did that the average fires burn about two million acres per year. but it's not the average that's the problem. it's the standard deviation. in 2020, the august complex burned a million acres by itself. the year only 277,000 acres burned. the year before that, two million acres burned. actuarial sciences want everything to be predictable. the camp fire burned 18,000 structures all by itself. and even last year, 2022 over here, it was still very dry. only 362,000 acres burned. this is where we are now, very, very wet. california is a very damp place at this point in time. the year before that, 2.6 million acres burned. it's just lightning. it's dry weather. it's an intense heat wave that
10:36 am
can just dry out all of the brush and make things burn. yes, we have more fires in the west than in the east and, yes, that will be the case. but at some point in time you have to understand their unpredictability of what they're seeing out there. >> listen, you and i were just talking a couple of weeks ago about flood risk in the wake of unusually large snowfall and it heats up and then you have water. chad myers at the weather center, thanks so much. deplorable, unsafe, unsan tore. that's how authorities are sk describing the conditions at a home in pennsylvania where police found seven kids. inside were dozens of rats in cages and a padlocked refrigerator. police arrested two parents who now face felony charges. let's get the latest from cnn's brynn gingras who's been tracking the latest developments. how did police figure out there were kids living in these conditions? >> reporter: yeah, boris, this
10:37 am
actually started with an investigation. this happened in bucks county, pennsylvania, where police got a call to a mobile home community about one of the homes being trespassed. so they responded to that call. they found three teenagers who didn't really -- weren't able to communicate exactly what they were doing, didn't look very good, had clothes on that were too big, they were very feilthy looking and they connected them with their parents who happened to be the mobile home next door and talked to the parents. the police went inside. they found that padlocked refrigerator. they were told by the mother, get this, that the kids were just garbage disposables with legs. that's how she described her own children to police. police left the area but came back not too long after with the state's child services. that's when they discovered even more children, four were found in a back bedroom. they also just found as you said it, deplorable conditions. there were snakes in the home, toads, a four-foot reptile, two
10:38 am
dozen caged rats, dogs, turtles, rabbits and feces everywhere. it was just horrific. the children were malnourished. they didn't have any education. they learned that these kids didn't even know their own birth date. so two parents, they have been arrested, charged with seven felony counts of endangerment of these children. they actually did get out of jail but those children are not with them, they are with the state. the good news here if there is any, is that these children are doing a little better. they're actually gaining weight but certainly there is a long road to recovery for these poor kids. >> it's so difficult to listen to some of those details. brynn gingras, thank you so much. jim. coming up next, the president of microsoft says ai has more potential for good than any other invention preceding it. but he is also calling for quick government regulation of this technology. here's why. plus, new york city plans to use a former correctional facility as an emergency center to shelter asylum seekers.

control built within the ai systems, liking it to an emergency brake within a vehicle. he was asked about one of the most vexing issues when it comes to ai, which is disinformation. we've seen ai images start to spread throughout the entrant. one of the most difficult problems when it comes to ai is that it's a lot easier for ai to create images and audio and video than it is to actually tee t detect them. we need old school eyes and ears and the technology is only getting better. he said the solution is to build hashes, digital fingerprints within these ai systems to make it easier to identify them. he was also asked about the six-month pause on ai development that has been proposed by people like elon musk and steve wozniak and he came out against the pause. the reason he said, i don't think china is going to jump on that bandwagon.

let's use that six months to go faster. >> the printing press comparison is interesting because one of my sons is studying the invention of the printing press. i said that's sort of like the internet now. but when you think about it, ai even bigger in many respects. so countries are now talking about regulating this. you have japan. the g-7 nations will hold their first meeting on ai regulation. what are they going to discuss -- do you have a sense they could begin to even get their heads around this? >> right. well, there's only so much that one country can regulate ai and that's why there are calls for international cooperation. earlier this month at the g-7 ai was a hot topic and there was discussion that they would have to meet to figure out a framework for international competition on how to deal with ai. this week they're meeting for the first time and they say they'll discuss intellectual property protection, disinformation and how tech should be governed. it should be noted these are the

g-7 nations. you know, this does not include countries like china and russia. sam altman said because ai is an existential risk, we need international watch dogs, similar to atomaomic watch dogs but we're beginning to see g-7 nations what ai regulation among is it them could look like. >> look, you've got separate internets between us and russia and china, it would be alarming to have separate ai regulations. jon sarlin, thanks for covering. boris. history on the hard course. after the maiami heat started t cool off, the boston celtics are one game away from doing something no team has ever done before in nba history. we'll tell you why tonight's game is must-see tv. ♪ ♪

. tonight the miami heat are trying to fend off an historic comeback from the boston celtics. it is game seven, win or go home in the nba's eastern conference final, thanks in part to a controversial end to game six. i want you to look at this. the celtics are up two with just seconds to spare. here it is. a foul, 2.8 seconds left on the clock. it's clear as day but the
10:54 am
referees put 3 seconds back on the clock giving boston an extra chance to win. jim each butler, jimmy "friggin'" butler names three free throws, they take the lead and then this happens. >> it's up to smart for the seventh game. it may have been tipped in but the buzzer sound it. >> he got rid of it in time! >> they let them off the hook. derek white hits a miraculous putback with 0.1 second left. boston was down 3-0 in the series. the heat haven't been able to close it out in three games. patrick, i'm not saying this because i've been a heat fan since i was a child. i'm saying this as an impartial journalist, an objective journalist, this is a travesty. >> look, they're still in it but there's no longer any margin for
10:55 am
error. yogi berra said it ain't over until it's over. they do say over here in the u.s. that the best two words in sport are game seven. history on the line as the storied boston celtics trying to do something no team has ever done before, the celtics just the first team ever to lose the first three games and then rally to win the next three. no one has come back to win, no one. boston of 22-5 at home in game sevens. one thing is now for sure after the heroics of derek white at the buzzer on saturday, we have a massive game later on tonight in boston. >> it felt good. everybody was asking me, did you get it off? i was like, yeah, i think so. i was just happy. like you said, season was on the line. we don't want to go home and so i was just happy we got the win.
10:56 am
i say through's a lot we can improve on and maybe better for game seven. >> i believe as we all do that you're going to get the same test until you pass it. i swear. we can do it. i know that we will do it. we got to go on the road and win in a very, very, very tough environment, but we're capable of it. so let's get busy. >> let's go busy indeed. so in the sports world anything can happen. sorry falcons fans but tom brady and the new england patriots overcame a 28 points to 3 deficit against atlanta in the super bowl. and an amazing cinderella story from my homeland in england, when leicester won back in 2016 against all the odds when nobody, and i mean nobody gave them a chance. in a nut shell 150 teams have tried to come back from being 3-0 down in a best of 7 series. 150 teams have so far failed. now the 17-time nba champs,
