1:01 am
classified do you means. we'll break down some of the most serious charges. found alive, four children rescued after surviving a plane crash in the amazon, their 40-day ordeal in the jungle and what could be history in the making. english soccer club manchester city will go for historic treble against inter-milan. ♪ the hours ahead could see donald trump speak publicly for the first time about the 37 count federal indictment he faces. he's due back on the campaign trail today with stops planned in georgia and north carolina. trump is already railed against the investigation on his truth social platform, we're learning more about the charges leveled against hyim, how sensitive the documents were the investigators say were in his possession and where they were kept. this photo is among those released, prosecutors tell us those are boxes of bathrooms
1:02 am
stored in the bathroom of his mar-a-lago resort. they risked national security secrets and conspired to obstruct their investigation. counts charged him with willful detention on national defense administration, conspiracy withholding or concealing documents carrying maximum 20 year prison sentences, trump is charged with a scheme to conceal evidence and making false statements, each carrying five-year maximum sentences, the white house and president biden are keeping their distance. >> mr. president, are you concerned about the -- in light of the trump indictment? >> i have no comment. >> someone who is commenting on the indictment for the first time is justice department special counsel jack smith. he made a brief statement on friday, defending the work of prosecutors and the fbi. here he is. >> our laws that protect national defense information are critical for the safety and security of the united states,
1:03 am
and they must be enforced. violations of those laws put our country at risk. adherence to the rule of law is a bedrock principle of the department of justice, and our nation's commitment to the rule of law sets an example for the world. we have one set of laws in this country, and they apply to everyone. >> the indictment is full of new details on trump's alleged crimes, including stunning photos of classified documents at his mar-a-lago resort. senior legal affairs correspondent paula reid reports. >> reporter: prosecutors lay out how former president trump allegedly, intentionally retained over 300 classified documents, including information about u.s. defense and weapons capabilities as well as nuclear programs and potential vulnerabilities to attack as well as plans for possible retaliation in response to a foreign attack. now, according to prosecutors
1:04 am
these documents were kept at various locations at mar-a-lago, including a ballroom, a bathroom, a shower, an office space, his bedroom, and even a storage closet. and the indictment even includes a photo where you can see documents, sensitive secrets meant only for a handful of our closest allies, strewn about the floor of a storage room. prosecutors also say that on two occasions former president trump shared classified information with people who did not have proper clearances, the first incident is actually something first reported by cnn, it was a meeting at his bedminster new jersey golf club in 2021 where he showed people information that he said was high secretive and that he could not declassify because he was no longer president. he also allegedly shared a classified map with a representative from his political action committee. the prosecutors also lay out how they allege he was trying to press his lawyer about possibly lying to the fbi after the government subpoenaed trump to get its records back.
1:05 am
they also lay out a series of damning ins dents and conversations with one of his aids where it appears that he is pressuring nada to move boxes containing classified materials not only to keep them from trump's lawyers but also to keep them from investigators. now, we heard from jack smith for the first time friday, and he insisted he wants this trial to move along as quickly as possible, likely mindful of an upcoming election next year. paula reid, cnn, washington. republicans in the u.s. presidential race have been weighing in on donald trump's indictment and so far the reactions have been mixed, ranging from condemnation against law enforcement, to criticism of the former president's alleged actions. >> tried to get them to lie on his behalf, and when they -- when he knew they wouldn't, and his own lawyer had to make recordings to protect himself, when he knew they wouldn't he directed his folks to hide boxes from his own lawyer in order not to turn these documents over to
1:06 am
the government. is this the type of conduct that we want from someone who wants to be president of the united states? >> this is unprecedented that we have a former president criminally charged for mishandling classified information, for obstruction of justice, this obviously will be an issue during the campaign. but for the sake of the country he doesn't need this distraction, the country doesn't need this distraction as well. >> when i was in congress i remember, you know, hillary had the emails with the classified, and my view was, well, gee, as a naval officer if i would have taken classified to my apartment i would have been court-martialed in a new york minute. they seem no not care about that. is there a different standard for a democrat skekt versus a former american president. there needs to be one standard of justice in this country. >> for more on this i want to
1:07 am
bring in thomas gift, the director of the center on u.s. politics at university of college london. thomas, let's start with what we just awe, the gop reaction, but i want to look beyond those presidential hopefuls, looking at the wider congressional reaction, what surprised you more, the amount of support donald trump has received or the relative silence from certain others? >> it's great to be with you, ken, thanks so much for having me. the support that donald trump gets from other republican primary candidates as well as in congress, that never surprises me. you know, trump's primary candidates, opponents have really been walking a tight rope with all of his legal difficulties, so far a lot have come out to support him. they feel they have no choice, it's that or alienate the maga base, and that's by and large the gop primary electorate. we heard chris christie, he's highlighted trump's misconduct, gone after him with a single-minded focus, calling him self-serving and self-consumed
1:08 am
and he's basically posed this rhetorical question to republican voters, do you really want this man who's been so dishonest and so reckless, to be your party standard bearer? i think the problem with that question is, rank and file republicans have consistently answered yes, we do. to think that's some tkind of a mic drop doesn't reflect the reality of trump 2024. in the end maybe it doesn't matter if you take the knives out against trump or treat him with kid gloves. trump has a commanding lead. everyone else seems like they're running for second place or a book deal or to be trump's vp. >> all right, so, few minds seem to have changed by the allegations in the indictment, but you mentioned voters there. do you think there will be any reconsideration, if not by republican politicians, than by trump's supporting voters? >> i really don't, ken, and i think trump is absolutely in his element when he's up to his neck
1:09 am
in scandal. i think it's possible that this indictment even exceeds both of his two impeachments in terms of political ammunition its gives him. to my mind, this really puts his campaign into overdrive. time and again we've seen it with mar-a-lago, with the alvin bragg indictment in new york, it's going to help his poll numbers, at least among republicans, bolstering fund raising, he's using it to get more money. almost regardless of what evidence comes out at trial, because that's what it means to be part of the maga base, you support him, and you don't ask questions. you know, it's interesting. i heard a commentator the other day say it's kind of intellectually lazy to say nothing moves the needle on trump with the maga base. there can always be an exemption but all the evidence that we have in the past suggests that trump's base never leaves him. even this burning question, i think, of, you know, why trump took these documents, and the
1:10 am
extent of national security risk might expose the united states to, it doesn't seem to resonate. >> you mentioned fund raising there, and we know that he will be trying to fund raise off of this. i'm wondering if this might affect fund raising, not so much maybe in the small donors but perhaps the big donors might want to edge away and not be associated with this, as this unfolds. >> yeah, i mean, that's a really good question, and i think that it is possible because when you think about the more elite donor base, they seem to be a little bit more concerned, i think at least in private of the long run and short run effects that donald trump is having on the republican party and that's why you've seen so many fundraisers, and donors, who supported donald trump in the past now moving to ron desantis. i think on the margins that could matter but when you think sort of the nickel and dime donations we're going to see
1:11 am
those spike. >> yeah. so, looking at that top secret, you know, material that they found in mar-a-lago, some of that relating to national defense, and to allies as well, the so-called five eyes alliance, which -- to which the uk is part of, i mean, you're there. what message do you think that this sends to america's allies, and its enemies as well? >> yeah, no, it's a great question, ken, i think both the trump presidency, and its aftermath, what we're going through right now, it removes the veneer that the u.s. is somehow different or immune from the sorts of democratic problems that afflict other countries. you know, the regrettable aspect of the indictment isn't that trump is going to face consequences, i think it's the damage that's being rot, both at home, but also internationally, by a leader who's just consistently shattered democratic norms, and really brought this prosecution on himself through his own malfeasance, trump's shown
1:12 am
contempt for the rule of law. he's dismissed regulatory constraints that bind the executives, he's put personal gain above the office that he was sworn to serve, it's all the same. and i think if you are an ally of the united states you really have to be concerned about that. if the leader of the free world is being so casual about the treatment and the protection of classified secrets that bears on your own interests, and so looking forward to 2024, you see that this individual is the prohibitive favorite to take the republican nomination could very well be president again that has to be a concern. i mean, i don't think it's a wake-up call for international leaders, they know who they're dealing with, with trump, but it's just another layer of concern, i think, that's added. >> we'll have to leave it there, always great to get your perspective, thomas gift in london, thanks so much. >> thanks, ken. now a remarkable testament of survival in the amazon rain forest.
1:13 am
that's how their president described the incredible rescue of four indigenous children missing since the 1st of may. this is video of the children being taken off the military air ambulance that brought them from the jungle to bogota for treatment. the four siblings went missing when the small plane they were traveling on crashed in the jungle. here's the latest. >> reporter: a rescue mission successful against all odds, four children found alive after spending 40 days in the thick of the amazon jungle, bringing their relatives to tears. >> let them come here to their grandparents, to their aunt, and their uncle, their grandmother. >> reporter: cthe president sharing the news. >> reporter: t-- they were foun
1:14 am
after 40 days, they were alone, a historical statement of survival today, these are the children of peace and the children of colombia. >> reporter: the rescue captures an effort by scouts to locate the little ones missing since the small plane they were traveling on with their mother crashed in the forest on the 1st of may. the bodies of their mother and two other adults were soon recovered. but hope never faded to find them alive. the military finding footprints and relics to keep the search going day after day, until finally a photo emerged from the depth of the forest, we have them, they're coming home. this is cnn, bogota. ukraine takes a long view of a devastating dam collapse that caused massive flooding. still ahead, why some farmers may have to wait for years to see their crops grow again. also leave, ahead, we're live in
1:19 am
ukraine is coming to grips with the long-term effects of the devastating dam collapse in its south. the breach of the dam caused massive flooding that inundated entire villages and forced thousands to evacuate. much of the surrounding farmland could lose access to irrigation for years, which may drive farmers out of business. at least five people have been killed in the flooding and 13 are still missing. humanitarian workers are now concerned about potential outbreaks of water borne illness and they say people in the affected areas depend entirely on handouts for their drinking water. military officials are worried that mines dislodged by flood waters could be pushed into the black sea and create new dangers there while pieces of homes picked up by flooding are washed aher, more than 200 kilometers away from the dam. ukraine's military operations have been picking up along the front lines of the zaporizhzhia region. vladimir putin now says ukraine's counteroffensive has
1:20 am
begun and says it's failing, the ukraine has said it will not officially announce the operation but a local ukrainian commander says his forces are testing russian defenses for now, as fred pleitgen reports from one town fighting is hard to ignore there. >> aid deliveries in one of the most dangerous places in ukraine. we're with the howard g. buffet foundation, the frontline town with the russians say ukraine's military is trying to punch through their defenses. constant artillery, and mortar barrages driving residents underground. >> we have to go jdownstairs in the basement. while you can't really see the counteroffensive of the ukrainians here, you can certainly hear it and feel it as well. >> reporter: in the basement shelter the leader hands out aid boxes to the mostly elderly residents, many traumatized but resilient. it's very dangerous here but i got used to it, 72-year-old olga
1:21 am
tells me, i can already distinguish rockets by their sound, i calm myself down. i asked 71-year-old nina if she thinks the counteroffensive can succeed. yes, i know about the counteroffensive she says, we will be closer the victory, ours will push them back step by step until they drive them out, until there's a complete victory for ukraine. but for now the going appears to be tough for the ukrainians, while kyiv hasn't acknowledged marriage offensive operations here u.s. officials tell cnn the ukrainian military is facing stiff russian resistance. this russian video purporting to show a column of western donated armor struck by moscow's forces. and the uptick in fighting made it nearly impossible to get aid in. >> it's one of the most dangerous areas in zaporizhzhia region. it's 24 hours bombed, 24 hours.
1:22 am
>> reporter: but they have to get aid even to those too frail to make it to the distribution points. grandma polia as she's known here can barely walk and refuses to be evacuated from her tiny house as shells keep raining down. her fate, she says, is now in god's hands. will we survive or not? she asks. you're still young. may god give you health and help you to survive this war. it's very difficult for old people. fred pleitgen, cnn, ukraine. nato is about to launch the largest air force drill in its 74-year history, starting monday about 10,000 service members from 25 nations will take part in the german-led air defender exercises, using more than 200 military planes, they will train how to quickly deploy allied troops from germany in the event of an attack. officials say the 11-day drills are meant to deter threats to europe's security and showcase the air power of the alliance.
1:23 am
all right, let's go to rome now, where pope francis is continuing to recover after undergoing abdominal surgery earlier this week. a vatican spokesperson said on friday the pope gathered in prayer and devoted himself to work. cnn's barbie nado is in rome. what's the latest on the pope's recovery? >> reporter: his spokesperson said this morning he had another tranquil night. that's really good news, this is an 86-year-old man who underwent his second surgery in the last two years, and the second hospitalization this year, he was in this hospital behind me in march for an infectious bronchitis. and now he's had this surgery. of course everyone's worried, it was a beautiful moment when the children of the children's ward in this hospital behind me drew pictures, and did, you know, some well wishes for the pope, and including some lovely little renditions of the pope himself in some of those images, of course, you know, everyone's really hoping that he continues
1:24 am
to make the progress that his doctors say is following along as it should be, ken. >> yeah, barbie, you talk about the well wishers, obviously there's concern for his health from catholics around the world, but there in rome, what more are locals and visitors saying? >> reporter: you know, the pope is always a huge important figure in a city like rome. people, when the pope is elected they go to the square, st. peter's square to see who the new pope will be. there's always a following here, on sunday he usually gives a blessing from st. peter's square, everyone's wondering what's going to happen tomorrow, if he's going to be well enough to give some sort of message, whether it's recorded or not, people are waiting and earned wooing to see if, and when we hear from him next. but the prognosis his doctors say is good and it's really important because he's got two really big trips for the catholic faithful coming up. he's supposed to go into portugal the first week of august for world youth day where lots and lots of people are anticipating his appearance there, and then the end of
1:25 am
august he's scheduled to go to mongolia for an apostolic visit. these are two important events on the catholic calendar for him coming up. this surgery he had on wednesday lasted three hours. doctors say it wasn't urgent. it was something to take care of persistent pain he was having. we can understand that's probably so he's in good shape to continue his work starting in august. kim? >> thank you, barbie, in rome for us, appreciate it. in serbia, tens of thousands of people gathered in front of the parliament building in belgrade on friday to protest against violence, this is the sixth weekly protest since the beginning of may when the country was rocked by two mass shootings that left 18 people dead. protesters blame the deaths on the culture of violence, demanding that the interior minister and the intelligence agency director be dismissed, and they want the broadcasting licenses of television stations that promote violence to be revoked. donald trump is now facing serious federal charges in the mar-a-lago documents case, and

to the espionage act because of their potential threat to national security and the penalties, if convicted, can be severe, the indictment alleges trump knew he wasn't supposed to have classified materials but he stashed them carelessly throughout his florida property and they obstructed government efforts to get them back. we have more now from cnn's molly zinona in washington. >> republicans have been racing to defend donald trump even before the indictment was unsealed. speaker kevin mccarthy on thursday put out a statement calling the charges unconscionable. saying this is a dark day for america, and vowing accountability for the department of justice. whether that's in the form of investigating the investigators, or potentially targeting doj and upcoming spending bills. but, kevin mccarthy still has yet to address the substance of the charges, including the fact that donald trump allegedly refused to turn over classified documents, and obstructed justice. take a listen to what else kevin mccarthy told fox news.
1:31 am
>> this is a very dark day in america. when you think about what they're trying to indict president trump on, i think jim jordan's going to bring it out tonight. when you learn of some of the things that he had said of how this investigation was carried out you'll see then that this judgment is wrong by this doj, that they treated president trump differently than they treat others. and it didn't have to be this way. >> reporter: what kevin mccarthy was referring to there is a letter from the house judiciary committee to the attorney general merrick garland sent on friday and in the letter republicans are seeking new information about the search on mar-a-lago for classified documents, and they also revealed in the letter that chairman jordan conducted a transcribed interview with a former fbi official, which jordan says raises new questions, and concerns about that search on mar-a-lago. so this really is just the opening salvo in the house gop's effort to defend donald trump, but it is a slightly different
1:32 am
story in the senate over there you have mitch mcconnell and john thune, the number one and number two senate republicans respectively and they have been silent so far. both men, of course, have not made any secret of their distaste for the former president, but this divide between house and senate gop leaders really speaks to the broader divide in the gop about donald trump, and whether he should be the presidential nominee. and that divide likely only to grow deeper in the weeks and months ahead. melanie zinona, capitol hill, cnn. now, donald trump has fiercely condemned the indictment over his handling of classified documents, but it's worth noting that in the past he's called for severe consequences against those who mishandle sensitive files. you probably remember the chants of lock her up regarding hillary clinton. cnn's k-file uncovered more examples, here's more. >> reporter: when he fires james comey, he says that comey was leaking classified information to the press, he did an
1:33 am
interview with "time" magazine around that time where he says classified information, you go to jail when you release stuff like that and he talks about comey, saying he leaked classified information for which he should be prosecuted. now, let's fast forward a few years to 2020, during that election john bolton was his national security director, he leaves the administration under bad terms, he writes sort of a tell-all book, and trump is very angry about this. he says in interviews that he releases classified information, again says he should go to jail for many years, and then in this tweet he says he must pay a very, very high price for this, talking about bolton, his book, saying that he released classified information in it. >> now, this case has been assigned, at least for now, to a federal judge in southern florida who was appointed by trump in 2020. many are now asking if the judge can be impartial, giving her
1:34 am
controversial involvement in the case last year. cnn's brian todd has our report. >> reporter: this 42-year-old judge from south florida faces enormous scrutiny because of her history with former pickup. multiple sources familiar with the matter sell men ilene cannon has been assigned to oversee the criminal case against donald trump in the documents investigation. >> if she does end up on this case on a permanent basis i'm concerned her bias is out there, that she will not handle the case fairly. >> reporter: the concern stemming not only from the fact that donald trump appointed cannon to the federal bench when he was president but also from her earlier involvement in the mar-a-lago documents probe. last year she approved trump's request to block justice department access to the recovered documents until a special master could review them for potential executive privilege. a ruling that even surprised legal conservatives. >> the opinion i think was wrong and i think the government should appeal it.
1:35 am
it's deeply flawed in a number of ways. >> reporter: the government did appeal cannon's ruling and the 11th circuit court of appeals overturned it. the now jeefr sees the criminal trial. >> she has to take small steps by delaying it until we're past the election and trump of course hopes if he manages to get himself elected again this case goes away as he would direct his justice department to drop it. >> reporter: a former colleague of cannon's private practice disputes accusations she favors donald trump. >> she doesn't have any bias at all. >> reporter: the judge was nominated in may of 2020, confirmed later that year. during her confirmation hearing cannon thanked members of her family, including her maternal grandparents, who she said had to flee cuba in 1960, and her mother. >> to my loving mother mercy, at the age of 70 had to speed the
1:36 am
castro regime in search of freedom and security. thank you for teaching me about the blessing of this country, and for giving me the importance of securing the rule of law for generations to come. >> a graduate of the university of michigan law school, ilene cannon once practiced latta firm in washington. where she said she handled cases related to government investigations. she also served as an assistant u.s. attorney in florida as a major crimes division. >> she can be counted upon to work as hard as she can work to get the right answers. >> reporter: we reached out to her chambers to ask for response to the criticism she's been biased in favor of former president trump. we didn't hear back. during her confirmation hearings she was asked if she'd ever had any discussions about loyalty to trump. she decisively responded no, brian todd, cnn, washington. jordan vander sloet is being held in the shelby county jail in alabama, coming after a not guilty plea entered in u.s.

the worst seems to be over for parts of the northeastern u.s. which had been blanketed by heavy smoke from wildfires in canada. at one point it got so bad it could be seen from space. the weather patterns are pushing the smoke into the atlantic. paula newton reports from ottawa. >> reporter: canadian officials
1:41 am
say that there are fewer fires burning now than there were earlier this week, having said that you have to keep in mind there are fires burning right across this country from the west to the east. it is on track already to be the second worst fire season ever in this country, and it will likely be surpassed, given the fact that this is still early in that wildfire season. now, having said all of this, what is going to help the most is some cooler, wetter weather moving through some critical regions like quebec hopefully in the next few days. this will continue to be a problem, though, and i want you to see why. have a look at this map, this is canada, in fact north america as it includes alaska, the borreal soon. including millions of hectares of forest. those places have been susceptible to more wildfires given climate change. it's not a clear pattern, it's complex. the fact remains there have been
1:42 am
wildfires, and they emit carbon of their own that adds to the climate crisis. given what you see there, officials in the united states and canada are trying to see if they come up with some kind of joint fire management system that includes better ways to try and manage wildfires in the future and also obviously trying to pool resources, trying to really not just prevent the fires but when they see hot spots get on top of it right away. having said that officials say to prepare for what unfortunately will be a very severe wildfire season in the months to come. paula newton, cnn, ottawa. as we saw that smoke from the canadian wildfires drifted south and created some of the worst air quality the northeastern united states has seen in years. look how bad it was in the nation's capital on thursday, one day later the smoke started to clear some of the polluted air pushed towards the atlantic, air quality concerns remain and pose obvious health concerns. joining me now is rebecca
1:43 am
schmidt, a professor and molecular epidemiologist in the department of public health sciences at the uc davis school of medicine, thanks for being here with us. when it comes to the health effects of the wildfire smoke we've been talking generally about the acute problems that can cause breathing difficulties, cardiovascular, and so on, but it could have longer-term effects as well, including on pregnancy, and newborns, which is something you've been particularly interested in, what has your research found? >> yeah, so so far we're still waiting to follow up our ongoing studies to see the long-term impacts but what we're finding with wildfire smoke is that there's similar effects as other types of air pollution with wildfire smoke exposure, and even though it's shorter exposure, it's having some of the similar effects on things like birth outcomes, including low birth weight and pre-term birth. >> yeah, i mean, that's
1:44 am
obviously potentially really serious, and later on, i mean, what effects will that have down the road, do you think? >> yeah, so just because we're seeing some of the similar outcomes associated with wildfire smoke exposure, we're anticipating to see maybe some of the similar long-term effects on child neurodevelopment, different behaviors and cognitive functioning differences in children exposed to wildfire smoke but we don't know that yet. that's what we're waiting to find out. >> i mean, the research is generally still in its early stages but are you aware of any other potential long-term effects that may be not just affecting people who are pregnant or newborns? >> yeah, i guess similar to the other findings we're thinking that there's probably going to be some of the similar long-term impacts on health in terms of aging and other cancer, maybe other impacts that we see with
1:45 am
long-term air pollution exposure, even though we're having such shorter exposures with these wildfire events it's much greater concentrations of smoke and particulate matter and these things tend to have similar buy logic impacts, including inflammation, and other short-lived things that might lead to longer-term impacts on health. >> are you aware of any research that tells you if there's a particular length of time needed to be exposed to this kind of poor air to suffer these long-term health effects? >> we don't know the long-term effects yet because it hasn't been that long that we've been exposed to these repeated really severe wildfire events. >> yeah, it's really worrying for folks who have been exposed to this to hear all this. i mean, is there anything that people out there can do to mitigate the effects? do you think we learn any lessons, for example, from covid
1:46 am
