and around the world. max foster has the week off. just ahead on "cnn newsroom" -- >> trump's lawyers arguing that they shouldn't be restricted from talking publicly about some evidence in the election interference probe. >> the american people have a right to know what the evidence is in this case. >> severe thunderstorms with strong winds and heavy rains causing damage across the country. >> the rain was literally sideways, one of the worst i've seen. >> ukraine's intelligence service says it foiled a russian plot to assassination zelenskyy. >> no secret that he is al likey a russian target. live from london, this is "cnn newsroom" with hmax foster and bianca nobilo. >> it is tuesday, august 8, 9:00

a.m. in london, 4:00 a.m. in washington where the judge in donald trump's election sub version case seems committed to moving forward with a speedy trial. she wants to hold a hearing this week about the handling of evidence and potential restrictions on what trump can say about the case in public. prosecutors and trump's legal team have until 3:00 p.m. eastern today to come up with options. the justice department contends that trump could disclose sensitive information or intimidate potential witnesses but trump's attorney says it would infringe on his first amendment rights. justice department prosecutors are also looking more closely at rudy giuliani's efforts to subvert the 2020 election. they interviewed a key ally on monday. paula reid has details. >> reporter: in washington, cnn reporting exclusively that former new york police commissioner bernie kerik talked

to special counsel investigators. >> mostly about all the efforts in between the election and january 6 of what the giuliani team was doing. >> reporter: the meeting is the first known investigative step since the special counsel's office filed charges against former president trump last week. kerik's attorney saying he doesn't think trump's former lawyer rudy giuliani will be indicted. >> not a chance. >> reporter: also trump's lawyers arguing in a new court filing that they shouldn't be restricted from talking publicly about some evidence in the election interference probe. >> the press and the american people in a campaign season have a right to know what the evidence is in this case. >> reporter: while so-called protective orders aren't unusual, prosecutors say that it is especially important in this case because of trump's public statements and how they could have a chilling effect like this

recent social media post that read "if you go after me, i'm coming after you." trump also lashing out specifically at his former vice president who could become a witness at trial calling him came s delusional and not a very good person. pence saying he would testify if asked. >> we'll obey the law and respond to the call of the law if it comes and just tell the truth. >> reporter: trump even attacking jack smith at a fundraiser in south carolina just days after his second arrest and arraignment in federal court on a case brought by the special counsel. >> jack smith is a deranged human being. >> reporter: trump's legal team testing out their defense in the court of public opinion including arguing that what trump did was covered by the first amendment. >> there was no trump

administration ufraudulent conspiracy. he said he wanted to see president trump prosecuted and taken out of the race. >> reporter: but quickly rebutted by former top allies. former attorney general bill barr drawing a line between speech and conspiracy. >> he can say whatever he wants. he can even lie. but that does not protect you from entering into a conspiracy. all conspiracies involve speech. >> reporter: the trump team also bracing for a fourth indictment in as many months. this time coming out of fulton county, georgia. >> yes, i think that we can expect it. >> reporter: where the former lieutenant governor just got subpoenaed in that grand jury investigation. and district attorney fani willis is getting ready to announce possible charges against trump for his actions in georgia around the 2020 election. >> i took an oath and the oath requires that i follow the law and if someone broke the law in fulton county, georgia, that i have a duty to prosecute and

that is what i plan do. >> reporter: cnn observing additional security for judge tanya chutkan the judge overseeing the trump prosecution related to january 6 here in washington, d.c. also the judge who will rule on that protective order and it is unclear when she will make that decision. paula reid, cnn, washington. >> trump's attorneys are testing more potential defenses in the election plot case. they now claim that it is not a crime to suggest that an elected official do something. for example asking then vice president mike pence to not certify the election results. >> there is no conspiracy, illegal conspiracy to do and i will legal act. so when you are saying congress is going to meet, i want congress do y action instead of x action or i want the vice president do a instead of b, that is not a conspiracy do something iillegal. it is just asking a government official to do something.

>> i'm not aware of the aspirational defense or free speech defense to a gang leader saying to his subordinates i need you to rob a bank for me and they do it, you know that is aspirational. but it leads to a crime. and that is exactly what trump did with pence. >> and trump's attorneys also claim he was simply following his legal team's advice when he pressured state election officials to find more votes for him. severe thunderstorms are rolling across much of the eastern united states. on monday alone, more than 600 storms were reported with strong winds and heavy rains causing damage and even deaths across the country. a teenager in south carolina was killed by a falling tree during one of the storms. members of the communities had this to say to the boy's family. >> our thoughts and prayers go

out on this young man's family and friends as they continue to cope and deal with the tragic loss. >> certainly feel for them. they are wonderful neighbors. i just can't imagine going through what they are going through. >> officials in alabama also report a man died after being struck by lightning. meantime this was the scene in tennessee after storms came through knoxville ripping roofs off homes and scattering debris. storms and at least one tornado in the state of indiana up rooted trees and destroyed buildings. at one point more than 1 million people across 11 states were without power. meteorologist chad mires takes a look at the weather for today. >> another round of severe weather later on this afternoon, all although not nearly what we had monday. a few in the high plains, parts of kansas, nebraska and

colorado. storms roll across the deep south in the afternoon. another batch of storms will be for your tuesday night into wednesday morning. but for the most part this is just going to be a rainmaker to the northeast and some gusty winds. that is all we'll really see. we won't see a million people without power. there is the rainfall potential here across parts of new england. it is all because of the ground up here is still saturated from the week and week and week of rain, so it hasn't had a chance to sdri out. like down here that has just dried out. the country cut in half where the southern part way in excess of normal and northern part very pleasant. how about 79 in omaha, 83 in denver. can't argue with that. but down here where the deep south meets the gulf of mexico, that is where temperatures will be high, humidities will be high and we're 5 to 10 degrees above normal for the next three. same story back out here.

closer to normal lal in some s but bakersfield 99. and death valley, only 112. that is four degrees below normal. extreme heat is just one instance of global warming. scientists say last month was the hottest month on record. the top nine in red represents 2023 with july clearly the highest temperature by far. data from the program says that the average global temperature in july was around 1.5 degrees celsius, warmer than the pre-industrial era. it is a critical checkpoint that experts say the world needs to stay away from. we've been hearing a lot about that. and this graph shows the annual increases of air temperatures, again 2023 is by far the highest on record. if this rising trend continues, scientists say the world will face even more extreme weather.

in ukraine at least seven people have been killed after russian missiles struck residential areas in the donetsk region. this video shows the aftermath of the strike that left at least 67 others injured. ukraine's minister of internal affairs said police officers, rescuers and two children were among those who were hurt. meantime ukrainian president zelenskyy is warning that russia may be left without vessels if it continues to attack ukrainian ports. his comments come just days after ukraine january sea drones hit both a russian tanker and a warship. ukraine security service says a woman is now in custody in connection to an alleged plot to assassinate president zelenskyy. ukrainian security officials publish a blurred image that they say shows the informant for russia. officials say she is from the southern ukrainian region of

mykolaiv. clare sebastian is with me. it has been roughly 24 hours since this report. what does it tell us about the risk the president is facing? >> i think it is no secret that zelenskyy has faced this kind of risk certainly at the very beginning of the conflict, you remember the u.s. offered to evacuate him and he said i don't need a ride, i need ammo. ukrainians have talked since then about various assassination attempts on him and we know president putin himself says i'm not fighting the ukrainian people, he's fighting the regime as he calls it in kyiv. so this sheds light on that danger, the fact that it is still ongoing. but also on the work of the security services, this sort of parallel battle that is taking place against informants. they do fairly regularly publicize this kind of information about various degrees of collaboration with russia and i think now at this

critical point in the conflict, it is even more important for them to get out and present this as a deterrent, they are saying that this woman could face some 12 years in prison for this. >> there are many different battles occurring as you point out. if we turn to what is actually happening in the theater of war, there has been another devastating attack on ukraine. >> yeah, the town i think is not so much a city, but about 60,000. and so no air striker to violence. but this was i think characterized by the fact that it was a double attack. so officials saying some tens of minutes apart the missile struck. and you can see of the 67 hit, 29 are but police officers, seven rescuers. so this double tap strategy where they fire one missile, wait for rescuers to move in and

then fire a second one. and emergency rescue operations are still under way. >> clare, thank you so much. it is important to look at these different strategies that are developing. still ahead, a u.s. diplomat holds a meeting with coup leaders in niger. what america hoped to get out of it and what they refused to concede. and plus leaders are gathering in brazil to discuss ways to protect the amazon rainforest, but can they overcome their differences and reach a con send says. consensus. and brazen attacks are on the rise in a large california city. how authorities are responding to the rise in crime. me out of the bed? baby, only on game nights. you know you are retired right? am i?? ya! save up to $500 on the new sleep p number® smart bed. plus, free home delivery w whn you add an adjustable base.

a senior u.s. official has met in niger to push for diplomatic resolution to the coup. but they say they made in progress.

instead they are trying to strengthen its authority. they have appointed a new prime minister and brought more troops into the capital to prepare for any potential military intervention from the regional bloc. this thurt sday they will hold meeting on the matter. stephanie busari is joining us. all eyes are on niger. they seem to have misplayed their hand somewhat because they made this declaration of intervention, nothing happened. and now it doesn't seem like there is much urgency for them meeting on thursday. >> they did overplay their hand somewhat, some say they are between a rock and a hard place. they have to talk stuff. this is a state of five coups in

the region. and they have to respond. in order not to be seen as a toothless body that just ignores forceful takeover of power. in senegal, there are a lot of protests there. they are worried about the contagion effect. so this is why this tough talking happened. but it has been dialed down because nobody wants a war in a region that is already plagued by terrorism. and so the diplomatic efforts must be reached through dialogue. that is what the people are telling their leaders. in nigeria for example, there was not approval of senate and they said seek a peaceful

resolution. that is what everybody is really seeking right now. the u.s. spokesman for secretary of state has said that diplomacy is the preferred option and he was talking yesterday to reporters. take a listen. >> the window of opportunity is definitely still open. we believe that president bazoum should be allowed to resume his duties today, tomorrow, anytime in the near future. >> reporter: so the u.s. is pushing for negotiated option. but they had intense and frank conversations with the military leaders in niger. and she admitted that these conversations were tense because they were quite firm about how they wanted to proceed and that did not include reinstating

bazoum or following the constitution of niger. which is what the international community is demanding. but the hunta appears ready to continue the negotiations. the ousted prime minister telling french tv that they have asked for the delegate to come back to the country. >> stephanie busari, thank you. in the coming hours leaders from eight amazon countries will be meeting in brazil for a two day summit to discuss ways to protect the critical rainforest from deforestation and other threats. rafael romo has more on the challenges facing the world's largest rainforest. >> reporter: they move slowly through the jungle, the weapons caught and loaded. these environmental agents are

searching for legal logging. doesn't take long before they find what they are looking for. illegal logging has been a challenge in brazil for decades, but experts say it grew worse the last four years when the former president was in power. commander in charge of the unit conducting this raid says previous government only cared about solving emergency situations but lagged strategic planning to combat deforestation. his team later makes an arrest. in his first speech after taking office on january 1, the current president de silva said one of his government's goals is to reach zero deforestation adding that brazil doesn't need to get rid of its trees to remaine an agricultural powerhouse. and now they want an international effort to save the

sochb with cooperation of all the countries. most is in brazil, but it does extend into other countries. president lula met with his colombia counterpart last month. last week the brazilian government says that preliminary data from the country space agency shows deinforforestation pollefo fallen to its lowest point in six years. and a summit will be held at the mouth of the amazon river. lula said that he will try to convince the other heads of state to work together in a cohesive way to fight organized crime to take care of the amazon

and the people who live in it. according to the brazilian government, the meeting intends to start a new stage of cooperation among the countries that host through the adoption of a shared policy for the sustainable development of the region. efforts to save the amazon are nothing new. the brazilian government has raided illegal mining and logging operations over the decades, but results have been disappointing. a study by purdue university showed had deforestation drove the massive amazon rainforest fires of 2019 that destroyed roughly the size of new jersey. and according to analysis by the council of foreign relations, it is estimated that between 17% and 20% of the amazon has been destroyed over the past 50 years and some scientists believe that the tipping point for die back is between 20% to 25%

deforestation. rafael romo, cnn, atlanta. still to come, police are investigating what prompted a massive fight on a boat dock in alabama. we'll bring you video from the scene that shows a black man being attacked. also ahead, we'll look at the controversy over the british development's plans to house migrants on a barge.

welcome back to "cnn newsroom." if you are just joining us, let me bring you up-to-date with the top stories this hour. the judge in donald trump's election interference case is planning a hearing this week on how to handle evidence. they argue over's strikess on what former president can disclose to the public. in ukraine a woman has been k too detained in an alleged ploss to assassinate president zelenskyy. police in alabama have issued arrest warrants for four people connected to a large brawl that broke out on a dock. it is unclear what caused the fight and police say more warrants may follow as they

review the footage. ryan young shows us what happens. >> reporter: an altercation between a group of white boaters and a black employee escalated in to a massive brawl that resulted in multiple arrest warrants. the montgomery mayor is calling for justice to be served for attacking a man who was doing his job. >> this is an unfortunate incident and something that we're investigating right now. we'll continue to go through the process before we take any additional steps. >> reporter: it all began whentd black when the black employee was trying to clear the dock space. the cruiser was about to return to shore and needed its space. >> just doing his job. and for some reason, they didn't like it. they didn't want to move the boat. and decided to get physical with him. >> reporter: you can see in the video the black employee on the dock arguing with one of the men on the pontoon boat and another

white man charging at the employee and hitting him in the face. soon after that, you can see several others join in on the attack of the dock employee. in some of the video which has gone viral, people on the boat can be heard yelling for someone to go help the employee. and then at one point you can see a young man who has jumped off the boat, swimming ashore to help the man who was being attacked. >> boat got closer, and that is when it happened. that is why when they got off the boat, they came right to that smaller boat. >> reporter: and more fighting ensues turning into an all-out brawl that included several people getting hit over the head with a folding chair. soon after officers started trying to take control handcuffing people in the fight. >> they were the antagonists. arrest them. because unfortunately when things happen, people of color are the first to be put in

handcuffs. >> reporter: many questions remain about the melee. >> we're fully engaged and doing all of our due diligence to find out what took place. >> we've learned there are four warrants issued and we're told there will be a tuesday news conference that will be around 2:00 eastern. we should learn more from police and city officials about this. but i can tell you this captivated the internet and people are paying attention to what the next steps are. new york city is taking all steps to cope with the influx of asylum seekers. marriedyrriyor adams has announ shelter to accommodate thousands. the center will provide on site services. the number of asylum seekers funneling into the city has reached nearly 100,000 since the start of the crisis with more than 57,000 currently seeking kir. and the number of migrant

families in texas has separated has gone up. en a immigration attorney says the number is now 40 from 26 known cases last week. the separations come following a marked shift in the state's policy where it is arresting fathers for trespassing and then turning over mothers and children to u.s. immigration authorities for processing. the attorney also says that most of the separated families are from venezuela and colombia. and the controversy over how to deal with the influx of asylum seekers in the uk is growing more complicated. monday health experts warned of a possible risk of infection aboard a barge being used to house migrants. now more from southwest england. >> reporter: asylum seekers were welcomed by a small group of campaigners on the way to the stockholm. although some of the buses only seemed to have brought a handful

of people on board. the campaigners have prepared welcome backs. >> we've got a map of portland because they will be new to the area and it will help them find their way around. we have notebooks and pens so they can write things down for their english lesson. >> reporter: but not everyone here thinks this kind of welcome is appropriate. >> take it back to the community or the portland food bank. take them down there, help set up the community fridge. >> you're not there. you were not there wednesday. >> we also want to support the refugees. why not? don't you want to support them? >> not over the people of portland. >> reporter: these are not the first migrants to stay on the stockholm, it has previously housed migrants in the netherlands and construction workers in scotland. but the mayor of portland says t the 500 people being put on it here is too many.

>> they are talking about more than double than they put on workers. human beings should be treated and taken care of in communities, not on a barge. >> but 500 is just a drop in the ocean of the 137,000 outstanding asylum decisions. nearly 60,000 people are awaiting them in temporary accommodation like hotels and the pressure is upwards with 15,000 migrants already having crossed the channel in small boats this year. and the home office said 20 people had refused to come here, that is more than have actually boarded the barge. >> so we successfully on boarded the first and there are 15 people on board. we have had a few challenges, but this is part of a long going structured process to bring a cohort of up to 500 people on board. >> reporter: the first residents can expect to stay here for three to nine months. what happens to those not granted asylum after that

depends on whether the government can get its rwanda plan through the courts. still to come, while zoom keeps the work from home dream alive, the video communications company wants its employees back in the office. hi, i'm ben, and i've lost 60 pounds on golo.

i currently suffer from nerve damage which kept me bedridden for six months. i was very overweight and depressed. i was skeptical when i first ordered golo, but the condition i was in, i was willing to take the chance, and the chance turned out to be my lotto ticket. golo gave me back my life, and that's why i'm here.

goli, taste your goals. zoom became a household name during the pandemic. the communications company has helped enable the work from home revolution. but now even zoom is requiring its workers to start returning to the office. but as you'd expect, not everyone is ready to ditch their couch for a commute. some of us don't have that option. as tom foreman reports. >> reporter: oh, the irony here. the company that taught us all how we could work from home and see each other, zoom, is now saying that it wants its workers in the office at least two days out of every week. and they are not alone this doing that. several others have done the

same thing. google, salesforce and amazon and the u.s. government are saying we like the idea of people being there face-to-face, we like the synergy, the productivity that comes out of it. but a lot of workers are not so convinced, especially you thinker w thinker -- younger workers say they don't like executing because of the gas and time. and they don't like paying extra child care. 14% think that. 13% say that they are better able to focus. what is the difference here in what they want? generally employers want 1.6 days at home per week. that is weird. we don't take 0.6 days. so they say two days at home is enough and workers say three days at home.

workers have a strong hand to play here because so many employers are still trying to find enough people and interestingly, working from home one study found workers equate that to an 8% higher salary if they have the freedom to work from home a lot. so you can see for employers, yeah, they want people back, but it is an uphill climb. for the first time in more than 40 years, los angeles city workers are going to strike today. the 11,000 public sector employees walking off the job include those working in sanitation and transportation. the l.a.x. airport and port of los angeles could also be affected. the workers union voted to strike for 24 hours after accusing city management of repeated labor law violations and are refusing to participate in a fair bargaining process. but the l.a. mayor says the city has been bargaining in good faith. elsewhere in los angeles, hollywood actors and writers strike has slamgedmed the braken

the entertainment industry and union representing thousands of hotel workers have also staged rolling strikes. and in oakland, california robberies, burglaries and assaults surged in july compared to last year. the california highway patrol is being deployed to help fight crime and protect the city's more than 400,000 residents. that is after a local branch of the civil rights organization naacp called on city leaders to declare a state of emergency over oakland's rampant crime. kyung lah has the story. >> i love oakland. it is very hard for me and my son especially my son. >> reporter: so kristin cook is leaving oakland, california. after living here her entire life. >> i can't take it anymore. i got to the point i was too scared to leave my house. >> reporter: cook blames brazen assaults in broad daylight,

break-ins and home invasions as oakland sees a surge of reported violent crime this s this year compared to last. everyone we talked to says that it doesn't matter your race, your income. everyone steams to be a target including carjackings like this one. >> no. aah! >> the fact that i'm being pushed out because i can't emotionally take it is horrible. >> reporter: but tony byrd is staying. she lives with a locked front gate and five security cameras. byrd says oakland police recommended steel braces for residential doors and air horns. >> the idea is if you set it off, your neighbor would hear it, set theirs off and more people are alert that there is

danger. >> reporter: and her neighbor across the street was shot to death in june trimming his front tree during the day. he died as byrd and other neighbors tried to save him. >> i'm not looking for the perfect safe place. i'm looking for a place where the elderly women with children aren't targeted. i think that we can all agree that needs to change so i feel like it will change and that is why i'm staying. >> reporter: but staying gets tougher every day for the owner of ace hardware. >> there is about six of them that comes in. >> reporter: and his store was robbed just hours before we met him. >> went through the cash registers. and you see they tried to take a sledgehammer to it, tried to lift it. and they will figure out they aren't getting in to that safe. >> reporter: welch says he loses 10% of his merchandise to theft so common this year he leaves his registers empty and open tired of replacing them.

>> it is more brazen, sometimes more violence than it used to be about. >> how long does it take police to arrive? >> 45 minutes. >> is that typical? >> that is probably fast. >> reporter: frustration has spilled over in community meade meetings. anger often directed at leadership like the new lir elected district attorney on the job just seven months. >> it is unreal. >> born and raised in oakland. when i walk out, i want to be safe. so if that calls for some whoever commits the crime to be prosecuted, so be it. but we want to be fair and just. >> reporter: darren white is with the naacp oakland branch which penned an open letter to their city blaming failed leadership, the defund the police movement and anti-police rhetoric for creating a heyday for oakland criminals. >> we're not trying to say mass incarcerations and arrest everybody. we want the people that are out here committing the violent

crimes arrested and charged. >> do we need more cop on the street? >> yes, every community needs police. >> reporter: and oakland's interim police chief says that oakland is taking a comprehensive approach to fighting crime. >> they all say that the crime feels different now. why is that? >> i think because it is pervasive, not just localize d, or historically scene, i think the feeling is that it is everywhere. >> reporter: from cops to crime prevention, funded for 712 officers, allison says that he has 715 on staff. >> so what you are seeing is changes in bail, changes in sentencing. >> are you saying you need tougher punishment on the back end? >> it is everything. it is not just enforcement and punish the. accountability comes in many 23 forms. >> reporter: oakland's mayor says it is a top prioritythe. accountability comes in many forms. >> reporter: oakland's mayor

says it is a top priority to reduce violence. and it is not just about enforcement from her office's perspective, that it is about a pus stained multiprong approach to crime, investigating, prevention as well as looking at the root causes of crime. and we also heard from the alameda county district attorney's office. she did not go on camera with us, but directly took on the naacp saying that she was, quote, disappointed in what they said, that she felt it was a false narrative and that she would expect more from the naacp. kyung lah, cnn, los angeles. still ahead, a clash of trailblazers under way at the world cup. will jamaica triumph. or will colombia reach the quarter finals f for the first time. okay. i'll w work on that. save up to $500 on the new sleep p number® smart bed. plus, free home delivery when youou add an adjustable ba. shop now only at sleep p number®.

0th minute. but biggest cheer came ten minutes after that when the star striker came on as sub for her first appearance of the tournament. players so hyped up afterwards that they had to pull out the bleep button. >> it was awesome. i'm so proud of everyone tonight. we just ran [ bleep ] and gave it everything and we knew if we defended well, we would score and that is what we did. so super proud of everyone. >> and this woman's world cup has been historic with three african teams reaching the knockout stage for the first time. only one left, but nigeria won plenty of admirers for the way they went out to encommand on monday and england frankly are rather fortunate to be in the quarter finals. they were given and an all mighty scare. against the european champions england, they hit the cross bar twice and england were really up

against it. their frustration boiled over when lauren james stepped on michelle which earned her a red card. england had to play the 30 minute extra time period with only ten players. but they held on to. thig chloe kelly finished it with this kick. >> we stuck together as a team. fortunately it was a very, very hard game and red cards and we stuck together, we made it clear to the extra time and we won the penalties. how we did that as a team and how the team -- yeah, just went going. i'm so proud of them. >> chloe kelly becoming quite the football legend at the age of 25 also netting the winning pen earlier this year against brazil and of course scoring the
