the senate is on the clock. lawmakers are passing the debt limit bill that would invent a disastrous default. we are following the latest. trump is caught on tape :sources say federal prosecutors have a recording of him talking about holding onto a classified document. what could that mean for the special counsel's case against the former president? ukraine's capital is rocked again by russian missiles. one family is just devastated, 9-year-old girl and her mother are among the dead after the bomb shelter they were fleeing to for safety was closed. at the same time, russia is willing from attack on his own soil. we are following developing stories and many more, coming in right here to cnn news central.
11:02 am
as soon as this evening, debt ceiling could go to the president's desk, ending the and less debt from on capitol hill. the senate leaders are furiously negotiating the head of a critical final vote on the debt limit bill, just four days before a disastrous government default. lauren fox is on capitol hill for us. talk to us about the timing. it could be as soon as this evening. it could be tomorrow? >> reporter: yes. that is some kind of time agreement. they are aiming to have this out as soon as tonight. that is what they are working toward. they had a senate vote that close a couple minutes ago. they were working on the senate floor, furiously trying to find some way forward. they're working through a number of senators, on the republican and democratic died,
11:03 am
that want to have amendments. here is a trick, none of the amendments can pass. if they do, then to kick this back over to the house of representatives. that would push them close to the deadline. here is what majority leader chuck schumer said earlier today. >> time is a luxury that the senate does not have. and needless delay or last- minute holdups would be an unnecessary and dangerous risk. any change to this bill, that forces us to send it back to the house would be entirely unacceptable. it would almost guarantee default. >> reporter: meanwhile, you have other senators on the republican side that are very can learned about the amount of spending on defense. lindsey graham's friend to get assurance from leadership that they would bring forth more money for ukraine later this summer. that is something that he is asking as heart of his boat. you will not be voting for this, but as part of his agreement not to actually slow
11:04 am
the whole process down. they are working toward trying to get all 100 senators to agree to move expeditiously. >> will see where they land on that. i want to bring in the reporter from the hill. how is the speaker faring today, after facing the backlash from republican hardliners for the deal he cut? >> there ensuring the majority of the conference would get behind the plan to raise the debt ceiling and suspend the debt limit through january 2025. they have a range of spending cuts and policies have been pushing. they got the white house to accept those measures. it did not go far enough are many republicans on the far right. some of them were warning that cutting this deal with the white house could be enough to cost him his job.
11:05 am
the speaker brushes off those concerns. if you look at the number on your screen, 149 republicans, more than half of the house republican conference voted for. 165 democrats. that is been a point of contention. this a more democrats voted for than republicans, how can be a good deal? kevin mccarthy brushes that aside. some are trying to use that against him. it takes one vote, one member that was a call for a vote to seek his ousting. that is a deal that kevin mccarthy agreed to to become speaker. there are some discussions planned in the days ahead to do just that. according to congressman ken buck. >> the discussion about the motion to vacate will happen in the next week or two. my constituents are furious. you know what's so interesting about the cause in the district? they're not just voting against the bill, they are voting to take kevin mccarthy out. that is what the calls are.
11:06 am
>> in order to get to that point, to actually eject them from the speakership, all democrats would have to agree to do that, and more than four republicans. that's why is always a threat over the speaker in this environment, in this narrowly divided republican majority. there are more than four republicans have been concerned about this deal. they have warned that there could be repercussions for the speaker. the question is, what they go that far? they are divided on this. what is the strategy if they knock them out? there is no other person that could get 218 votes to become the house speaker. at the moment, we will see if the temperature continues to increase, or they dial it back after days pass since this bill left the house. >> who would want that job? we don't know. it is a very tough job, as we have seen. thank you for reporting live on the hill. former president donald
11:07 am
trump is on the campaign trail in iowa. he has yet to receive want to cnn's exclusive reporting that federal prosecutors have a tape of him talking about keeping classified documents after he left the white house. sources tell cnn that the recording captures him discussing, sharing a specific pentagon document, and admitting that he is limited in his ability to declassify it. that could undercut his legal argument in the special counsel probe. paula reid was part of the story that broke the story. one source tells you, this is a serious problem for the former president. what does the evidence entail? what is so remarkable, what is so remarkable that the evidence is that the former president knew he was being recorded. sometimes when people hear there is a tape, they think it is a secret recording. during the summer of 2021, the former president was in the
11:08 am
habit of having his aides record and upload conversations with journalists, writers, and those working on books. in this meeting, the golf club, among those in attendance were his aides and two people working on an autobiography for mark meadows. mark meadows was on attendance. that's one of the ways that a recording was created. it is unclear exactly where investigators got theirs. what is so remarkable, and will be of interest to investigators is that he knows he is being taped, and yet he is discussing a classified pentagon document discussing a strike on iran, discussing he would love to share it, and acknowledging the limits on his ability to declassify this once out of the oval office. as noted, it undercuts the defense that he and his attorneys have tried to put forth, that he can declassify documents by thinking it. >> that is one of the many conflicting explanations. >> does this bring investigators any closer to figuring out his intent, or why he held onto these documents?
11:09 am
mech intent is huge when we look at the potential criminal charges. willfulness, it's all part of this. up until now, we have not seen anything this haircut, where the president acknowledges i have this document and it is classified, and i cannot really be sharing it. even if he gets around the question of is it classified or not? these are sensitive defense secrets that he is possibly waving about. we can hear paper on the tape. it is unclear if it is waving the document or something else. this also spreads the theater of the investigation. we have been focused on florida, because that is where the fbi conducted its search. we do know is lawyers did a search in new jersey, but did not find anything. now, we know according to the audio recording, at least one classified document was a new jersey at one point. the question is, where to go from there? we don't know if it was related
11:10 am
to this document. you did look at the special report, looking at his potential dealings with foreign countries on the issues of these documents. thank you very much for that reporting. keep us updated from special counsel. and auntie vladimir putin group claims it destroyed ammunition and rocket launchers on the russian border region. eight people were injured there claiming ukrainian writers to enter the country's suffered the most losses. we often doubt claims like this. cities inside of russia are beginning to look like war zones. you can see smoke billowing off of a russian administrative building. despite the were creeping inside of russian territory, the kremlin says the latest incursions will not make them change course. sam joins us from ukraine. we are talking about these more frequently, attacks on russian territory. what we know about who is carrying the amount and
11:11 am
how common are they? >> reporter: if we look back over the last week or 10 days, we have seen at least two series of raids acclaimed by these two russian groups that are part of ukrainian security forces. these are russian dissidents. one group on the far right, and another more centrist. both of them, combining to carry out these raids. today, they posted online, claims that they cross the border to conduct more raids. claims to have attacked ammunition dumps. the russians made counterclaims about having driven them back. we know the inside russia, there has been shelling. that shelling must have come from somewhere. it must have been coming from ukraine. the shelling has reached into the town of sherpa as well . the province says eight people were injured earlier on in the
11:12 am
day. many hundreds have been evacuated from the border villages there. especially, women and children, obviously. the russian government showed that they are trying to get people sheltered into safer parts of the country. if we look at the map, this is taking place in patches around 150 mile stretch of border. i do believe this is deliberate policy of the ukrainians to keep the russians guessing about what will happen next. at the same time, they are denying direct response building for the cross-border raids, in terms of ground troops being used. >> it is a deliberate decision to bring the effects of the consequences of war unto russian soil. i want to get to the latest strikes on kyiv. we have a photo that puts a human face on the human losses they are. this is a man, overseeing the recovered body of his
11:13 am
granddaughter, as i understand it, along with her mother, they were trying to get a bomb shelter in kyiv, and could not get inside. we know what happened next i know you have run from your own share of air attacks. do we know why this particular shelter was locked? >> reporter: it is very peculiar indeed, this is the subject of an official investigation with the president coming out with a statement saying, whoever is responsible will suffer the consequences. there is extreme anger on the street and in a governor, with almost nightly raids on every ukrainian town, but particularly, kyiv to any bomb shelter would be locked. these are soviet era bomb shelters in most cases. they are normally unlocked. they are quite good facilities want to get down into them. they have ventilation and some of them have school rooms and such, and showers.
11:14 am
ultimately, people have become lax about taking cover. i was on the case, the family and many others were trying to get into this bomb shelter, they banged on the door as it done in the past, and found it locked. they were unable to get into it. one man lost his wife and daughter, and another woman was killed. the number of people injured, and that was by the descending debris from a missile. it could have been a whole lot worse, had the missiles been able to penetrate the air defense systems. the government of ukraine is saying, all the missiles were shot down. the debris can be a killer as well. >> no question. that is a reminder that this is happening virtually every day in the country since the start of the war. thank you so much. ron desantis and his presidential campaign takes them to new hampshire. the person that some call it a secret weapon, and the power

11:19 am
today, immigrants run the country are taking action through their apps ends. demonstrations in seven states are recognizing what they call a day without immigrants to push back against the new immigration law in florida. the law wires employers with more than 25 workers to check their immigration status. it also invalidates a government id cards issued to undocumented immigrants, issuing steep fines or potential jail time to anyone who trans warts undocumented people. let's go live to florida or carlos suarez has been following these protests. what are they hoping will come from a day without immigrants? >> reporter: immigrants want to highlight their contributions that they make in their communities, from where folks egypt where they shop.
11:20 am
we are in florida, a farming migrant community to the east of fort myers in southwest order. we will drive around town. almost every other business has closed and supports of the protest taking place across the state of florida. restaurants, supermarkets, and the catholic church said they were not open their doors today, in an effort to send a clear message that the new immigration law, said to take effect in florida in july is already making an impact on undocumented workers in the state of florida. we caught up with an organizer of a work stoppage event that will take place later this afternoon. we are expecting a crowd of hundreds, if not thousands of farmers and migrant workers, and business leaders. she told us, they are hearing the folks that have left the state of florida because the harvest season is over, and they don't plan to come back.
11:21 am
>> we had many farmworkers that have left. they already migrated up north. they are thinking about where are they going to go in october? they will not be coming back to florida. they are having to say goodbye to friends and family members, as well as the community that has helped support them. >> impact on businesses is felt. yesterday, we were in west on beach county, where we caught up with the owner of a mexican restaurant that told us, he has lost 30% of his staff. he says his workers have all went. many of them were undocumented. they all told him the reason they were leaving their jobs is because of the new immigration law. he says the owner of the business says they are in the process of trying to figure out whether or not they will be able to stay open once the law goes into effect in july. here in florida, we do expect a crowd of several hundred to
11:22 am
come out in support of immigrants. this is something we have seen in homestead, florida, and orlando in jacksonville. agriculture is a huge part of florida's economy. the migrant workers are its backbone. the man behind the controversial immigration law is not in the sunshine day today. ron desantis is on the campaign trail, little more than a week since he launched his run for the white house. he is at two beacon soon, and one of the critical early primary states, new hampshire. earlier, he pointed out how we can serve a longer-term man his prime rival. >> the bureaucracy, and the administrative state, the only did 4 years, everything would get reversed. there is a lot you can do on day one that will have a big impact. that bureaucracy is a huge, huge problem.
11:23 am
>> why didn't he do it is first 4 years? >> just getting is in new hampshire following ron desantis. what is the message to voters today? >> reporter: i think it has been interesting to watch him sell himself as a sitting executive. that is the lane we are seeing him carve out in the ever- growing gop presidential field. what he and his team believe sets them apart is that he is not a former anything. he is a sitting governor. he can go through and check off what they think are big accomplishments that will resonate with gop voters here in new hampshire and other early states. that is what we have heard him do again and again. he is really going through the list of what he has done in florida. that is what he and his team called the florida blueprint. it's about introducing himself to voters that don't know that much about him, or don't know exactly what he has done. i was
11:24 am
there for his first stop. i watched him do this. there were people kind of nodding their head and leaning over saying we did not realize he did that. that is something we are hearing a lot of. it is interesting what we are not hearing a lot of on the campaign trail president trump's name. he is not mentioning him by name at all. you will mention it in passing, if asked by other media outlets. he will go hard at trump. on the stump, he is not talking about it. he did see right there in the clip you played, how he took that swipe, why didn't he do it in six months? we are seeing that back and forth between the former president and the governor intensifying now that he is a full candidate. >> that was a clause out swipe. >> he is campaigning with his wife. she is perhaps some of the most influential member of his inner circle. how are the voters receiving
11:25 am
her? >> reporter: they have certainly been interested to see her. when she goes into the podium, they want to take photos and hear from her. the campaign is using her as a way to show the personal side of ron desantis. she talks about their children and them being in the governor's residence. she talks about who he is as a man and a husband, giving that personal side. she is coming up about halfway through, speaking for a bit, sitting back down. she took part in a moderated q&a. she is part of the rollout. she was there with him in iowa and took the stage in des moines. she has been on the road with him throughout. where more phones out to take as a than the governor? what do you think? >> that is good question. they want to see everyone. i think there is a lot of interest in her.
11:26 am
i do think we have a clip that you can listen to of her on the stump. we set up with the goal of trying to set up 1 million does for the governor for reelection. we surpassed that goal. we got 1.1 million. i'll tell you why, is bipartisan. it was republican, democrat, and independent. >> again, there she is, playing a key role in all of this. we do expect to keep seeing them together. it will be interesting, something to watch, how the campaign will choose to deploy her and him in different ways to generate support in the early state. >> you are very busy woman in new hampshire, it will only get busier for you. thank you so much for that. we just have a little election coming up. drugs prescribed the drug,

from losing weight to curbing all kinds of addictions, new research is aiming to see if the popular weight loss drug, ozempic, can help patients cut down on addictive behaviors. this comes as more and more people taking weight loss medications look at a sudden loss of interest in smoking and drinking.
11:32 am
you read some descriptions of the drug and what people are finding. they state is revolutionary. it may have a whole host of applications. i wondered, have doctors pinpointed what is behind this? >> reporter: they say these drugs, were not just in the body, but also in the brain. that might be how they were to help curb hunger and potentially for other addictive behaviors. we spoke with one patient taking ozempic to lose weight. she said it had an effect on using her vape pens. >> it is like someone has just come along and switched the light on. you can see the room for what it is. all of these cigarettes you've had over the years, they don't look attractive anymore. it is very strange. the waiter takes off your mind is far greater than any pounds a month your body.

churchill downs, the home of the kentucky derby is announcing changes to the racetrack after a disturbing rash of resource debts. churchill downs says they will continue to hold races. there will be new safety measures and lace. nick what has been following the investigation closely. tell us about the proposed changes. 12 dead horses within about a month, that is why we are
11:39 am
here. the headline is raising will go on at churchill downs. they did ask for a suspension raising while the investigation into those deaths was carried out. that has not happened. racing goes on. here's what changes. each horse will be limited to four start within an eight week rolling period. critics of horseracing say horseracing but an unnatural strain on a horse. they're running at unnatural speeds in an unnatural pack. it puts unnatural strain on the young bodies. the next thing, payment incentives. they will hold the start bonuses for trainers. the purse will be split between the top five forces. the reason is obviously that if a trainer has a horse that might have a bit of a problem, there will not be such an intent to raise the horse. they won't get any money for it. also, the horses region by 12 or more links in five consecutive races, that horse will not be allowed to race
11:40 am
until it has been checked over by a vet to make sure the reason for the bad moments is not that it is injured, which could lead to death. 12 dead horses, critics of horseracing say that is really nothing out of the ordinary out of churchill downs. 25 die every year. this is all being done under the auspices of the new body called the horse racing integrity association. there now overseeing the sport nationwide, due to problems in the sport. a lot of this was kicked off after a rash of or stats in california in 2019. at any time did something similar to what churchill downs is doing now. they brought a new safety measures. horse deaths are down. horses are still dying there. critics of horseracing say, whatever you do, whatever measures you take, as long as you are racing horses, horses are going to die. the critics
11:41 am
say that is unacceptable. on the other side of this, you have churchill downs and other organizations from within the sport, trying to save their sport by making it safer to save the horses, which i think everybody is trying to do. and to save the image of horseracing, so we can continue. it is in trouble. >> that image is suffering. the numbers are staggering. now to some of the other headlines we are watching. that 70 so show star, danny patterson has been convicted of . they could not reach a verdict on that third count could not be confirmed. he was taken into custody after wednesday's verdict. he faces 30 years to life in prison. also in the blood unions, the supreme court is allowing a

11:44 am
the world? >> that is a large part of it. we really don't know the details surrounding what the secretary of state called an american presence is. it seems like it will be some sort of diplomatic post. it will be more than 1000 miles north of the current u.s. embassy in norway. as you said, it will be above the arctic circle. with the secretary of state said, currently, there is some cooperation up there. there is peace. the u.s. has been watching this space. it is critical for russia in terms of oil and gas, and in terms of its military buildup. cnn reported on satellite images over the last year, showing just how much russia has built up its military presence in the arctic. the other factor here, as you said, is china. china has been cooperating with russia, increasingly in the arctic.
11:45 am
as u.s. officials have watched that partnership grow, obviously, there is a desire to make sure that the united date has more of a presence on the ground. clearly, that is part of the effort behind setting up the new diplomatic post. we will continue to watch this evolve over the course of the coming years. it also comes as there is tensions between the u.s. and china. most of that is focused in the south china sea. now that we have this increased cooperation the arctic, porous, u.s. officials are hoping there isn't that sort of dynamic laying out in that area of the world as well. >> yes, we have activities from by all three countries. thank you very much. a huge settlement, amazon is going to pay more than $30 million over violating privacy rights. who will get the money? what can you do to make sure that your r privacy is detected wax that is next on cnn news central.

how much their accident case is worth.h barnes. t ouour juryry aorneneys hehelpou tech giant amazon has now agreed to pay more than $30 million to settle claims that its devices violated the privacy of customers. the two federal lawsuits brought by the ftc involve alexa voice assistant and ring doorbell cameras. these are used in millions of homes, very likely one of yours. brian, amazon dominates the smart speaker market. explain the concerns here. what kind of privacy rights we're talking about that are being violated. >> yeah, let's start with ripping. according to the ftc, ring basically allowed employees of the company to -- and hackers,
11:51 am
outside hackers to spy on ring users. so when you had a camera set up in your bedroom or your bathroom, conceivably that could allow hackers to watch and view the recordings of people shown on the cameras. that was what the ftc said was an unfair and deceptive practice. and now with the amazon alexa issue, you said what the ftc said was a violation of children's privacy, where amazon was allegedly holding on to voice recordings of children that it had collected through the alexa app and its smart speakers in violation of a national law that prevents children's data from being collected from users under 13 without parental consent. and so what's happening now is amazon is settling this -- these two lawsuits for more than $30 million. it's going to pay $5.8 million
11:52 am
to settle the ring lawsuit and $25 million to settle the alexa lawsuit. now, it's important to point out that there are also a number of behavioral changes that the ftc is imposing here. one, amazon won't be able to use some of these voice recordings to train its ai algorithms. and two, it's going to have to implement a privacy program for all of these services. >> 30 million, that sounds like a lot, but it's really not that much. i wonder if alexa and ring users are going to see any of that money? >> i asked the ftc about this and it said ring users as part of that settlement will see some consumer redress and refunds there but the $25 million associated with the alexa settlement, that money is going to go straight to the u.s. treasury. >> we also have to think about what we can do as consumers to protect ourselves. the first thing that i thought of was these cameras that were in bathrooms or bedrooms, maybe
11:53 am
don't have one in your bathroom. but tell us about the things we can do to protect ourself. >> specific to these apps, amazon allows you to delete these recordings from amazon alexa in its settings. so if you're concerned about your privacy, you might want to consider doing that. for ring, you can establish two-factor authentication for your accounts, same as your amazon account that you might use to log in for your e-commerce. these tips really apply to all sorts of platforms, whether it's amazon, google, facebook or what have you. two-factor authentication, making sure you have long, complex passwords. tracked using a password manager so you don't have to remember each individual pass record and make sure each password for each different service is different so if one is compromised, your entire digital life isn't overturned. >> vary the passwords, long passwords, password manager. i am on it, brian.
