million people are starting the weekend under heat alerts. temperatures will be around 100 degrees farenheit in the south. and out west another heatwave is just beginning. in parts of california and nevada, temperatures could soar up to 100 degrees. some people might try to beat the heat by traveling this weekend, but that could come with its own headaches. on thursday, more than 7,000 flights were delayed and close to 800 cancellations according to flight aware. already more than 300 delays today and more than 160 cancellations, most of these issues stem from weather and staffing shortages at airlines and air traffic control facilities. officials advise travelers to have patience and arrive at the airport with plenty of time to spare. >> friday will be our busiest day both here and nationwide. so make sure that you are giving

us plenty of time. busiest is in the morning 5:30 to 8:00 and then a midday rush and then again 4:30 to 7:00 in the evening. during any of those times you can expect maybe some lines. give yourself plenty of time. >> and you are probably hoping for good weather this weekend. chad myers is joining us with what we have in store. >> three big stories i think. smoke in the northeast, heat across the deep south and also in california, and then the severe weather that will be possible on friday afternoon as we work our way into later today. here is what the smoke forecast is. if you remember, the smoke forecast had an awful lot of yellows and oranges on it indicating 200 or 300 parts per million. those colors have calmed down signif significantly. some mixing has pain if been in

atmo atmosphere, so still 100 to 150, but not the extremely you been healthy 300 parts per million that the midwest saw.been healthy 300 parts per million that the midwest saw. here is the high pressure dome that will bring temperatures with humidity on up above 100 degrees in many spots. excessive heat warnings going on here and in the west, this is the first heatwave really of california's summer season. here is what the temperatures will feel like. new orleans 108 degrees is your feels like temperature in the shade later on today. add in the heat and humidity. if you take humidity out and just show you the thermometer, temperatures in dallas, in the 90s, but little rockwell to the 100 degree mark throughout the afternoon. and even sacramento almost 110. death valley, 120. these are the best numbers we've seen across the west. there will be some strong

weather over the next couple of days throughout the midwest. really in an arc here from about kansas all the way into about georgia. that is where the severe weather was or very close on wind sgust approached 80 miles per hour. and many people will take the rainfall. we need it in some of the growing areas. be careful because some of the rain will be accompanied by significant lightning. so you don't want to be outside when that happens. have a great weekend. u.s. supreme court is wrapping up its term before its summer break with rulings expected on a number of highly contentious issues. one is a prominent lgbtq case in colorado. at issue is whether a web designer can dozen her services to same sex couples because of her religious beliefs. the court will also rule on the ambitious student loan

forgiveness program which is beset with legal challenges. the constitution al question is with whether the u.s. education department has the authority to forgive those debts. no matter what the court decides on student sdebt, higher education is already roiled on affirmative action. jessica sni sder has more on the historic decision and the people behind it. >> reporter: the supreme court stirring up protests with its decision gutting affirmative action saying colleges and universities can no longer rely on race in the admissions process. but prospective students are still allowed to talk about how their race has shaped their experiences in their applications. the opinion will prohibit students from checking a box indicating their race specifically saying the practice at harvard and university of north carolina cannot be reconciled with the guarantees of the equal protection clause. the majority not explicitly saying that they are over rruli

more than four decades of precedent, but the three liberal justices writing today the court stands in the way and rolls back decades of precedent and momentous progress. >> i'm really most worried about the youth and like the students younger than us in high school and middle school and elementary school who might not get the same opportunity that i did. >> reporter: the two cases were brought by the group students for fair admissions led by edward bloom who has fought for nearly a decade to eradicate affirmative action. >> classifying them and treating them differently because of race and ethnicity is unfair. >> reporter: at the forefront, asian students who argued had they were disadvantaged because harvard prioritized other minorities and used a personal rating score that did not rank them favorably. the issue is deeply personal to justice sonia sotomayor as the first woman of color on the supreme court. she issued a fiery dissent accusing the majority of

employing an unjustified exercise of power that will only serve to highlight the court's own impa teotence. and she has been outspoken saying using other methods to ensure diversity won't work. >> it is not that i don't believe it works, i don't think that the statistics show that it works. >> reporter: in fact when california banned affirmative action in 1996, uc berkeley said black and hispanic representation on their campus dropped by 50%. but justice clarence thomas, one of two black justices on the high court, spoke in personal terms to saying that he believes the constitution is color blind. while i am painfully aware of the social and economic ravages which have be fallen my race and all who suffer discriminal narks i hold out enduring hope that the country will live up to its principles that all men are treated equal, are equal citizens and must be treated equally before the law. justice ketanji brown jackson pushed back in a separate

dissent bashing the majority opinion as saying it was let them eat cake obliviousness and dealing race irrelevant in law does not make it so in life. but the supreme court saying that u.s. military service academies can continue to take race into consideration as a factor in admissions, essentially exempting those military schools from the ruling. now, this was spelled out in a footnote in the majority opinion. but justice ketanji brown jackson calling this out in a dissent saying that the court is essentially prioritizing diversity in the bunker versus the board room. jessica schneider, cnn, washington. ruling to strike down affirmative action was expected and the biden white house says it has been meeting with education officials to chart a path forwards. but president biden was clearly irritated by the decision saying this is not a normal court. he amplified on that later on msnbc. take a listen.

>> what i meant is it has done more to unravel basic rights and basic decisions than any court in recent history. and that is what i meant by it, not normal. just so out of sorts with the basic value system of the american people. and i think that across the board the vast majority of the american people don't agree with a lot of the decisions the courts are making. >> by contrast former president trump called it a great day for america, we're going back to all merit base. and that is the way it should be. police in france say they arrested nearly 700 people on the third night of protests over the police killing of a teenage boy. [ gunfire ] confrontations flared between protesters and police in the paris suburb where the 17-year-old named nael was killed on tuesday. chaotic and violent scenes

played out in cities around the country late on thursday into friday. the french interior ministry says nearly 250 police officers were injured. daylight is bringing new images showing the result of that unrest. this is the view from one street in paris. nic robertson is joining me now. it is spreading and police don't look like they are particularly controlled. >> reporter: yes, 667 people arrested across the country. you only have to look at the sort of map of fire around paris to see that the center of paris is encircled by the sort of gulf of fire. but if you go to the north, trouble there violence overnight. and if you go west and southwest, or even marseilles in the south, the violence is spreading out. and the 40,000 police were on alert overnight, but it didn't

stop the violence at this bus station here. i think i can get you a better live picture here looking in. overall in this area, they lost 26 buses last night and one tram. figure each bus is about $300,000. a tram about $3 million. so the damage for just this district here on the outskirts of paris in buses, trams alone was over $11 million, about $11.7 million. the transport minister turned up earlier on here a short time ago and i asked him what is it going to take to stop the violence. and this is what he told me. >> translator: it is in the interests of those who are expressing their anger today to protect our public service and then we live in a society of law. the justice system needs to be able to carry out its work. no one is above the law. but everyone has the rights

protected by the law. we also need to leave the justice system in tranquility. it is what we owe to the young man who was killed. calm, tranquillity, and justice carried out in good conditions. >> reporter: and the police officer involved in that shooting has now been charged with voluntary homicide. lawyers representing his family said that he needed to face murder charges. very clearly the justice system is focusing on that police officer. his lawyer by the way says that this is now political, that he was in police rights to pull the trigger when he pulled the trigger, but the message from officials here pretty clear, max, very clear it has been since the beginning. public services, the violence, damaging local infrastructure, it is not helping to solve the situation and they will be tough and seems to be said that the

potential for more days of this type of violence ahead. >> nic robertson, thank you. we'll have updates of course as we watch. still ahead next, new questions surrounding the one-time leader of russia's water. a top general now linked to the wagner group and last weekend's march on moscow. and leaders of the european union are meeting in brussels. their reaction to the russia uprising just ahead. and there was a firestorm of reaction in muslim nations over what they call an extremely offensive act. details after the break. splash into savings with our 4th of july sale. blendjet gives you ice-crushing,

(soft music) an influential russian blogger reports that military purge may be under way in moscow in the wake of last weekend's revolt. questions remain over the whereabouts of sergei, some say that he has been detained for questioning about what he knew. and documents shared with cnn suggest that he was a secret vip member of the wagner group. matthew chance has that story.

>> reporter: this is the last time we saw the general, saturday looking nervous, imploring wagner mercy takers to end their brief rebellion. clearly pressure in his words to make a difference. he is nicknamed sg d general armageddon, and he was very close to wagner. but just how close is only now becoming clear. documents shared exclusively with cnn suggest that he was since 2018 a secret vi. member of the group with a personal wagner registration number.

documents list him and 30 other military and intelligence officials that are also vip wagner members. wagner hasn't answered cnn's request for a response. it is unclear what vep member si membership details. but it does imply an overly close relationship with between the russian military and the merce mercenaries that they failed to prevent from staging a military uprising at the weekend. and in allowing wagner fighters to take over an entire russian city with virtually no resistance.

it all raises suspicions in the kremlin of divided loyalty. but general surovikin whose whereabouts remain unknown is one of russia's most capable highly decorated commanders. what is unclear is if the kremlin still trusts him. matthew chance, cnn, moscow. also unclear after prigozhin's mutiny is huch of the military's loyalty to president putin can still count on. cnn spoke about that with former u.s. vice president mike pence who met with president zelenskyy in ukraine on thursday. pence is running for the white house in 2024 and he is the first republican candidate to visit ukraine. pence spoke with erin burnett. >> you mentioned putin and of course you've met him. you dealt with him when you were vice president. do you think that he has full command of his military right now? >> i think it is an open question. it is.

now, the wagner group is a specialty group, we have some familiarity with. american forces encountered the wagner group in syria back in 2018 win they moved against our forces. and after being warned multiple times, the order was given and we took them out without one american casualty. but they are under stood to be some of the most elite forces in russia. now they have been dispersed. they have been invited back into the military. but i did hear today that they are decamping in belarus along with their leader who is now in exile. and i must just tell you that we don't know what we don't know about what is happening in russia, but that is always true about russia and about vladimir putin. >> russia claims it shot down multiple missiles fired by ukraine on the occupied city today. and ukrainian authorities report a fire and explosions near the airport. kyiv forces say they are making

gains in round-the-clock battles. russia is reportedly moving additional forces towards the city including anti-tank missile systems. wagner group fighters captured the decimated city in the donetsk region last month. and leaders of the european union are pledging long term commitment to ukraine. we heard from president zelenskyy by video link who urged them to start work on new sanctions against moscow. salma has been looking at that. >> yes, so we have the e uu leaders meeting this week this brussels. i believe they started gathering yesterday. and of course they are there to assess what is needed on the battlefield, to take a look at what weaponry, what support the ukrainian military needs to continue that counteroffensive. but they will also be looking potentially at more sanctions. i think that they have already had about ten rounds of sanctions and there could be even more. president zelenskyy in addressing eu leaders was keen

to push on that, he wants to starve the russian country and make sure they have no financial resources to continue their fight on the ground. but this is also an opportunity for the eu leaders to discuss the very important events that happened over the weekend. of course the armed insurrection led by yevgeny prigozhin, a putin that looks weaker than ever potentially, who has faced the largest challenge in his 23 year leadership, and may not have full command and control of his own military. may not have that all-important monopoly of power according to the eu foreign affairs chief. take a listen to what he said. >> it is clear putin goes out of this crisis weakened. but a weaker putin is a greater danger. so we have to be very much aware of the consequences. >> so a weakened putin, a

threatened putin is a more dangerous putin is the point he's making. why in we already know from some reporting on the ground that are saying that -- president putin is carrying out a purge of his military. that that might not be all that is taking place. you can see putin is more paranoid, more concerned about those around him and trusting in less figures. and voeof course in the wake ofe questions about where one of his top men are, last seen in a individual use on friday looking disheveled, possibly reading from a script, who could according to some be under detention for having advanced knowledge of the armed insurrection who is a vip member of wagner.

it is how much command does he have. >> salma, thank you. greta thunberg met with president zelenskyy this morning. and she wants to put eyes on the better assessments of the environmental damage so moscow can be held accountable. now admissions policies at american colleges and universities are suddenly tossed into turmoil. that story just ahead. and plus new details about the special counsel investigations into the former u.s. president donald trump, classified documents and efforts to overturn the 2020 election. and he was accused of failing to protect children during the dead list high school shooting in the u.s. but now a former school resource officer learns his fate as a jury returns the verdict in his trial.

and we'd have a better view. do you need mulch? what, we have a ton of mulch. welcome back. if you are just joining us, let me bring you up to indicate with our top stories. millions of americans are starting the fourth of july holiday weekend under heat alerts. temperatures near 100 degrees farenheit. and in parts of california, temperatures could soar up to 110 degrees farenheit. the u.s. supreme court is wrapping up its term with rulings expected on a number of highly contentious issues including a prominent lgbtq case in colorado and president

biden's ambitious student loan forgiveness program. a year of a at the o overturning roe v. wade, the conservative majority has delivered another stunning reversal to decades of legal precedent this time soundly rejecting the policy of including race in college applications. thursday's 6-3 decision had been widely expected but the fallout will be significant. it means most colleges and universities can no longer consider a student's race in its acceptance criteria. data show that admissions drop off sharply for black and latino students in places where affirmative action has already been banned. the court decision did carve out notable exceptions for u.s. military academieses saying race can still be a factor when considering freshmen candidates. many asian students support the ruling claiming that affirmative action has been a major obstacle to attending ivy league universities.

kyung lah is in los angeles and has our report. >> reporter: harvard, yale, columbia, leslie shows us the rejection letters that ended his ivy league dream. >> i'm a 4.0 gpa. >> did you get any to any ivy league schools? >> i did not. >> reporter: that was zo when we met him two years ago b, today soon to be a junior at ucla. >> i think in some sense it would help me. >> reporter: he was accepted to every university of california school in a state that banned affirmative action in 1996. what has helped me in california could signal the future for u.s. colleges without 56 affirmative action. uclment a professor says that the impact was immediate. >> as soon as that went into effect, you saw at places like

berkeley, ucla, black student enrollment dropped dramatically. >> reporter: by more than half at those schools. across the uc system, black and latino enrollment fell sharply the next year without affirmative action. but in the decades to follow, the uc system still took aggressive approach to improve the numbers. black student enrollment still lags at uc berkeley and ucl after the only recently returned to mid-90s levels. >> if this decision was made in 1996 and we fast forward to 20123 to say the numbers have finally improved, imagine what it will look like on a national level. you need to think about the legacy and impact across racial groups and why there are disparities decade after decade despite the policies. >> i could easily walk in too a classroom and feel like i'm someone that doesn't belong here and is that not the truth. >> reporter: and she graduated from ucla two years ago and now works in black student outreach.

without such outreach and funding, she sees this -- do you feel like a lot of doors were closed for black students? >> i'm sorried that they will. so it is important to say this is attainable for you. >> reporter: and wesley will soon be applying for medical school and he still believes affirmative action doesn't help him. but does see the impact beyond his own academic life. >> i will say affirmative action does help asian-americans, but without it, it helps all americans. that is where i stand. >> reporter: after three decades without oof affirmative action, the university of california system still believes that affirmative action is the way to go. the uc system filed an amicus brief with the streak. the supreme court. but the justices deciding that the rest of the country should follow california on this issue. a former donald trump campaign official is cooperating in the probe related to effort to the overturn the 2020

election. that is according to two sources familiar with the matter. meanwhile we are learning the former president showed classified material to a current senior campaign official during a meeting at his new jersey golf club. paula reid has that. >> reporter: one of the most surprising revelations in the trump indictment was an allegation that the former president had shown a classified map to a representative from his political action committee. surprising not only because it is suggesting that he showed classified material to someone who didn't have clearance, but also a suggestion that swoon in his inner circle may have shared the information with investigators. a source tells cnn that that representative is susie wils, one of his closest advise earnings effectively running his third campaign for the white house. she was interviewed multiple times by special counsel investigators, she was asked if she was ever shown this map or any other documents related to general mark milley.

and it is unclear what she told investigators. we're told that the trump camp was blindsided by the news and as of right now, there is no plan for wils to step back from his role in the campaign. and also cnn learned that the grand jury down in florida investigating the possible mishandling of classified documents is still active, they are still inquiring after witnesses and investigating. not unheard of for a grand jury to continue its work after charges have been filed. and we know from our reporting that there are loose ends here in the investigation. for example gaps in the security footage that was given to investigators. also questions about exactly how documents were stored at the former president's bedminster golf club. it is unclear if the grand jury will bring additional charges or a superseding indictment against those already charged. paula reid, cnn, washington.

and travis scott will not face criminal charges over the crowd crush that killed ten and injured hundreds at the astroworld music festival. a district attorney in houston announced thursday a grand jury also decided not to indict others connected to the festival. the grand jury found that no crime occurred and no single individual was criminally responsible. the decision has no impact on the many civil lawsuits pending against scott and the organizers. an attorney for the rapper says that it is a huge weight that has been lifted. a jury has acquitted a former law enforcement officer of any wrongdoing this the worst high school mass shooting in u.s. history. former school resource officer scot peterson wept as the judge read the verdict. he was found not guilty of all charges. carlos suarez has more.

>> reporter: the jury came back with a not guilty verdict on all of the charges. scot peterson cried as the verdict was read in court and the families of some of the victims watched in disbelief. some of them shaking their head no. it is a scene we saw during the sentencing trial for the shooter when the engineer in that case sentenced the shooter to life in prison instead of the death penalty. peterson was charged with 11 counts including seven of child felony neglect and three counts of misglmean or culpable negligence for his inaction to stop the shooter. the defense argued that peterson didn't go into the building where the shooting happened because he did not know exactly where the gunfire was coming from and where the shooter was. peterson took cover for more than 45 minutes outside of the building before the shooter was arrested. on child neglect charges the state had to prove that peterson was a caregiver, a designation

not typically given to law enforcement. here now is peterson after the verdict and the father of joaquin oliver, one of the 14 students killed. >> don't anybody ever forget this was a massacre on february 14th. only person to blame was that monster who wasn't any law enforcement. nobody on that scene, bso, coral springs, everybody did the best they could. >> we were there too late. i'm sick of listening to that. who is working on the moments before what happened? who allowed that killer to get into the school? was that not your responsibility also? >> reporter: peterson was found not guilty of lying to investigators about the number of gunshots he heard when he arrived at the scene and whether he saw people running from the building where the shooting took place. carlos suarez, cnn, ft. lauderdale, florida. >> we'll be right back.

take a look at these pictures in saudi arabia. an estimated 1.8 million muslims from 150 countries taking part in the hajj. the journey to the holiest sites is one of file pillars of faith. but for many this year's hajj is being overshadowed with anger. that rage follows the burning of a koran during a 23407b admini demonstration in stockholm. the united states has joined malaysia and other nations to strongly condemn the incident. but others call it protected free speech.

more protests against sweden are expected in the coming hours in iraq. thursday th thursday demonstrators protested what they call hate speech. and jomana karedsheh has more. >> reporter: scores of protestors poured into the swedish embassy compound to protest swedish authorities allowing a man to burn islam's holly boy book outside a mosque thursday, first day of a holy day. for the most part it appeared nonviolent, but they scale the walls of the compound. the embassy staff are safe. this is after supporters were called on to head to the swedish embassy. and he also called on the iraqi

government to excel the swedish ambassador. and he called on the government to revoke iraqi citizenship who set the book ablaze. he is an iraqi refugee with anti-islam views. the incident appears to be over right now, but there are calls for a larger protest in baghdad. friday is traditional day of protests in the arab and muslim world and there could potentially be protests as well in other countries. there is so much anger and outrage across the arab and muslim world. governments are not only condemning what they view as this offensive and sacrilegious act, but they are angry with swee dozen, furious for sweden allowing this to happen once again. jordan and uae has summoned swedish ambassadors. morocco has recalled its ambassador to swee dden. swedish officials say they don't condone these acts, but this is freedom of speech and it is protected by the constitution

and it is central to swedish democracy. but muslims around the world are saying for them this is not freedom of speech, this is hate speech and islamophobia. jomana karedsheh, cnn, london. and u.s. special envoy on ran is placed on up paid leave while his security clearance is under review and also investigated for handling of classified material. the special envoy played a key role in u.s. efforts to revive the iran nuclear deal. taiwan is thanking the u.s. after the biden administration approved a $440 million potential arms deal to the island. the white house informed congress on thursday the package includes ammunition and equipment for armored vehicles. last friday taipei says that

interview with cnn that he was going to be walking away from the simple override part of the you additional overhaul plan. but there was the question about whether his coalition would try to push through the possibility that there could be an override clause but with a supermajority of members of parliament. but now netanyahu saying that that is off the table. take a listen. >> i already changed a few things after the original proposal was put forward. i said the idea of an override clause where the parliament can override decisions of the supreme court with a simple majority, i threw that out. >> reporter: but if doesn't mean that the rest of the judicial overhaul is dead. there are still other aspects especially how judges are selected. benjamin netanyahu confirmed that they will still push forward, but they did say that things like judicial selection committee will not be ultimately the same plan that was initially introduced by his own justice minister months ago.

but that also doesn't mean that the protestors are backing off either because there are still elements of the you additional reform that are still going to be pushed through and brought forward to votes in the coming days and weeks. and in fact protestors still plan to go out on the streets on their saturday night for their regular weekly protests that are often concentrated in tel aviv, but also on monday they say they plan to shut down israel's main airport out of tel aviv, and they say as a part of their massive protests because that is the day that they believe parts of the legislation will be brought forward for a vote. hadas gold, cnn, jerusalem. still ahead the former world number one player says that she is returning to tennis three years after retiring from the sport. why she felt compelled to pick up the racquet once again. introducing the limited
