try to turn his arrest and booking into a political advantage. meanwhile, the fulton county district attorney is preparing to begin sharing evidence as part of the discovery process next month. now, a lot is still up in the air, like, when the trial will start and whether all of the defendants will be tried at the same time. cnn's caitlin polantz rereports. >> reporter: now that donald trump has been arrested at the fulton county jail on charges here in the state of georgia related to the 2020 election there is going to be a road to trial, just like in his three other criminal cases. in this situation there are already defendants of donald trump, co-defendants of president trump, sidney powell, ken chesebro, and they're saying they want the opportunity to move fast and the opportunity to clear themselves quickly. the district attorney wants a trial to begin for them, or at least for chesebro and others in

october, and a judge seems to be in agreement with that. donald trump, however, he does not want that at all. he wants to drag things out. clearly in this case, as well as in his other criminal cases, given that he is running for president, and it is very time-consuming to be a criminal defendant, to have to sit through a trial but as of this ment that is the big question, what happens there, the next thing that is the big question is that are all of these p going to be tried together? there are 19 defendants in this case, many possibilities for trump to remove himself from the others, or try to, and there is going to already be a hearing on monday about this particular issue, mark meadows, the former chief of staff to trump in the white house, he is arguing that he should have his case moved from the state court to the federal court because he was a federal official at the time work under donald trump wouldn't have been doing what he was doing if it had not been because

of his role in the white house. there are others asking for that same sort of protection. and so a federal judge is going to look at that and look at each of those people's arguments, fake electors, justice department official jeffrey clark, as well as meadows, does the whole case move from state court to federal court, do each of these defendants get their own separate cases in federal court rather than where the district attorney has charged this in the state of georgia? there's a lot of complex legal proceedings ahead of us. witnesses to be put under oath on display as part of these hearings, mini trials if you will, and all of this will reflect upon exactly what trump will be facing, not here in the long term, just in georgia, but also could play in to the cases that are being built against him or the case that's being built against him in federal court in washington, d.c. another proceeding that could be going to trial before the election next year. katelyn polantz, cnn, atlanta.

there's been plenty of reaction to the mug shot itself. reporters asked president joe biden to weigh in on the photo. here he is. >> have you seen donald trump's mug shot yet? mr. president, are you -- >> i did see it on television. >> what did you think? >> nice and dry. trump's team said he wanted to look defiant in his mug shot. now more than 90 million are under excessive warnings and advisories across the united states, georgia to texas, including parts of arizona and california. the national weather service says the temperature reached 109 degrees fahrenheit prompting the main power supplier to ask residents to cut back on a usage for a second straight day because the extreme heat is straining the system. the state of louisiana is usually preparing for hurricanes and tropical storms at this time

the world renowned cellist posted the grip friday on "x," he wrote, quote, this is for maui from a faraway friend, adding i'm so terribly sorry. and maui county in hawaii now has a new interim emergency administrator after the previous official had resigned citing health reasons. criticized for not sounding emergency sirens as the wildfires swept in and killed at least 115 people. the new official has invaluable experience. officials say 100 people listed as missing in the fires are reported to be safe. the development came after authorities on thursday released a list of 388 people believed to be missing. they say that triggered hundreds of calls with information on people's whereabouts, but officials say the missing list is partial and the death toll could still rise.

and a legal battle is taking shape over what started the fires in the first place. cnn's natasha chen has the very latest. >> reporter: in this lawsuit maui county is calling this a human made disaster, alleging negligence and recklessness on the part of the electric companies, inaction caused loss of life, severe injuries, complete destruction of homes and businesses, displacement of thousands of people, and damage to many historical sites. the electric companies didn't keep up their equipment very well. there was advanced wood decay over time, that they did not have a policy or decide to shut down the power lines, deenergize them when there was a high wind watch and red flag warning. specifically, to that issue, the president and ceo of hawaii electric said about a week after the fires that this was actually

a controversial practice, even though it is done in places like california, nevada, oregon as a way of preventing wildfires. the electric company spokesperson told cnn that their priority is to support the people and county of maui and they're disappointed that the county took this litigious route. separately "the washington post" is reporting that the utility removed damaged poles, downed lines and other equipment from where the lahaina fires reportedly started, which prevented investigators from being able to view the scene undisturbed. that's according to the post's investigation into court documents, letters and records, cnn is still trying to independently confirm that. but the post does report that those actions violated national guidelines on how utilities should handle and preserve evidence after a wildfire. and deprives investigators of that opportunity to view any downed poles or lines in that

undisturbed condition. to that a spokesperson told the post they are in regular communication with the atf and local authorities and are cooperating to provide them, as well as attorneys representing people affected by the wildfires, with inventories, and access to the removed equipment, which they have carefully photographed, documented, and stored. of course now we know that the unaccounted list is down to just more than 300 people of verified names. the fbi brought that list down from more than a thousand, this is a very difficult moment, the maui police chief said, because those names, they know, are going to create a lot of pain for their loved ones seeing them on that list. the death count, at least 115 right now. natasha chen, cnn, los angeles. >> dozens of people have been arrested in greece on arson-related charges as

ukraine says its exp its foothold in russian defenses in the south, reportedly happening south of the village of -- which ukraine says it secured earlier this week, take a look at what that fighting looks like on the ground. ukraine says its troops are having more success near two villages south of there, even some pro-kremlin military bloggers are conceding russian troops are under pressure. trying tcut the land bridge between crimea and donetsk region. russia claims its -- while kyiv says at least one person was killed, and two others wounded in russian strikes across southern ukraine over the past day. meanwhile, russian investigators say they've recovered ten bodies and flight data recorders from the plane crash that's believed to have killed wagner boss yevgeny prigozhin.

russian authorities said on friday the materials are being handed over for forensic and criminal investigation. the kremlin vehemently denied whether it was involved in the crash. they did not say if putin would attend the funeral. dmitry peskov said on friday there's uncertainty about the timeline for identification procedures. many ordinary russians have begun mourning the mercenary leader. matthew chance reports from petersburg. >> reporter: shocked in not surprised, supporters of russia's wagner mercenary leader have been paying their respects. laying flowers, and lighting candles at makeshift memorials across the country. for all his violent and foul-mouthed outbursts, often critical of russia's military leadership, yevgeny prigozhin

struck a chord, especially with people like darria her in st. petersburg who told me how strong and interesting she found his personality. he always stood up for his fighters, she said, in the special military operation. what russia calls the conflict in ukraine. are you sad that he is gone? i'm only sad they were so vile to him, she answers. it's a bitterness many russians now share. this photograph here, i think probably one of the last ones of prigozhin, and it says in russian, in this hell he was the best, speaking about him in the past tense. some people have laid patches, wagner mercenary group patches from the side of their uniforms. a lot of people paying respects here today are either members of wagner or they're families of members of wagner.

the organization's known for its cruelty, and this hammer here, it's very heavy, pick it up, it's got wagner written on it, look, it's become a potent symbol of just how ruth less wagner was because it was with a tool like this that they executed someone they regarded as a traitor and they filmed it happening. absolutely gruesome. but that video consolidated wagner's image as a ruthless hyperviolent organization that would do anything to protect the motherland. he even staged that dramatic uprising in june, marching troops towards moscow in the biggest challenge to kremlin authority for decades. many russians suspect prigozhin's presumed death in this plane crash was cold-hearted revenge. but the kremlin denies

involvement. and few russians dare say otherwise, at least publicly. some of my closest friends are wagner, says this man, who asked us to hide his identity at the memorial. they're just russian people, he tells me, who thought they were doing the right thing, but i can't talk for prigozhin, he adds. who do you think is responsible for his death? who killed him? no comment. these are dangerous times in russia to throw allegations around. matthew chance, cnn, st. petersburg. >> for more on this cnn's salma abdel aziz joins us live from london. what more are we learning. >> reporter: we understand that according to russian officials ten bodies have been recovered at the scene of the crash as well as the flight recorder box and that dna evidence will be

carried out, forensic evidence testing will be carried out to determine not only the identities of those ten but also the cause of that crash and that comes just shortly after president putin broke his silence on this plane crash, speaking of yevgeny prigozhin in the past tense without, of course, confirming that he is, indeed, dead, describing him as a talented man who made serious mistakes. now, you saw there in that piece some of the supporters of yevgeny prigozhin. and for them, i think, came his death, or this plane crash, came as no surprise necessarily, of course, the kremlin has denied any involvement, but we've had a string of incidences in recent years, where kremlin critics have wound up poisoned or dead. of course, again, the kremlin denying any involvement, calling an absolute lie and saying they will carry out an indendent investigation. take a listen to what the spokesperson said.

>> reporter: now, the question becomes, kim, can a body backed by the russian government, russian investigators actually provide clear and transparent results on what happened? can it be done without interference, without meddling? i think for western intelligence agencies the answer to that question is absolutely not, kim, they're already looking into this investigation, into this crash, u.s. officials, u.s. intelligence agencies already believe that this is deliberate. of course, the cause of it still remains unknown, and something that intelligence agencies will continue to dig on. but, again, you have the site of the crash inside russia being

looked at with russian investigators, the forensic evidence in their hands, meaning potentially there could never be clear answers. >> yeah, exactly right, salma abdel aziz in london, thanks so much. four new crew members are on their way to the international space station after a liftoff a little less than an hour ago. have a look. >> ignition. the rocket is cleared. >> the falcon 9 rocket delivered a picture perfect launch as it blasted off from the kennedy space center in florida. the new crew members come from the u.s., denmark, japan and russia. when they reach the station they'll join seven other astronauts who have been there since march. let's head to the kennedy space center where we're joined by joseph ashbacker, the director of the european space agency, thanks for being here with us. you were there watching the launch, the excitement, the atmosphere, i imagine, it never

gets old. >> it never gets old. it's always exciting, and i've seen a few launches, now actually the fourth launch since i'm -- and we had a series of east astronauts in space. and it's really exciting. i think we just see a new revolution of space happening right now in front of us and this launch today was symbolizing also the cooperation of international partners on this, with the japanese astronaut, russian astronaut, a european astronaut and of course a nasa astronaut. it was just wonderful to see and the launch as you say was picture perfect. >> you have one of your own astronauts on board. what are you hoping to achieve on this mission? >> there will be a lot of experiment -- about 100 experiments on which andy morganson will be working on,

and they'll be spanning wide away from experiments on their own body, how does the body react in microgravity, what does it mean to be weight less for the muscles, the bones, the blood, the heart and eyesight. but also material sciences, pharmaceuticals, remote controlled robots that he will steer from the space station. so there's really a lot of experiments that we're lining up and this is the purpose of why we fly to the space station to do all the research because we know that there's so much benefit to be taken for people on earth for medical research, for pharmaceutical research and many other domains. this is very helpful to us. >> there's so much collaboration there, but there's competition as well, the reusable technology we're seeing in terms of spacex's falcon 9 rocket. it's something you're trying to work on as well, something similar, your new rocket, it's seen many delays. do you have any update on when it might be ready and what the biggest challenges have been

that have sort of set you back? >> yeah, no, of course, if you call it competition, i mean, it's a healthy competition because what's happening here, especially with falcon 9 and spacex is quite impressive. but it also is a good energy that we take out of this for europe, in order to really see what can be achieved and how we can do it. you mentioned our own rocket, it's getting ready for its maiden flight. we have not yet formally announced a date. it will be in 2024. we are right now undergoing a series of tests, which are lined up in the next month, but by the end of -- by the end of september, early october, we'll be in a position to be a bit more precise of when in '24 we are expecting to launch. i have to say the rocket will be extremely good, very powerful, very versatile, much cheaper than the previous version, and i'm really looking forward it, it will be a wonderful rocket once it's taking off on the

launch pad and getting into operations. >> all right, and finally, a few days ago we saw the indian mission successfully land on the moon, your agency provided tracking support for this. it seems like we're seeing a new era of space exploration, there's been so much focus on the moon's south pole. you're hoping to build up what you called a village on the moon within the next decade. explain what that would look like, and why you'd want to do this. >> yeah, first of all, let me really congratulate the indian space research organization and the indian people all together for this achievement, landing softly on the south pole of the moon is a huge deal, it's a huge achievement, very happy to see that, and very, very happy to see the success of india. what do we plan in europe? we have a very strong exploration program which we have already got funded, but of course our ambition is even more and even higher. and what i really want to do, and this is a discussion i'm having right now with my member states and the decision makers in europe is to build up a new

activity in exploration, a new level of exploration activity in europe, which is, of course, much more pronounced than what we have today. not for the sake of just doing it on our own, but really being a strong international partner with the u.s., with japan, with india, with many other partners in space agencies, because that's what we want to do. and, yes, we would like to build up our capability of having crew and event cruelly human capabilities also from europe and this is a discussion which we are having right now with our decision makers. >> we'll have to leave it there, but really appreciate your time on this exciting day for everyone watching there, the european space agency director joseph ashbacker, really appreciate it. >> thank you very much. what some republican candidates are doing to win over a key u.s. swing state to get their names on the presidential ballot. we'll have that when we return.

welcome back to all of you watching us here in the united states, canada and around the world, i'm kim brunhuber, this is cnn newsroom, donald trump is hoping to turn his arrest and booking in the georgia election subversion case into a political advantage, the former u.s. president's mug shot is front and center in a campaign fund raising push splashed on everything from coffee cups to t-shirts, his team is struggling with a crowded calendar. >> reporter: multiple conversations how to navigate if there is a potential trial or trials while he is campaigning for president in 2024.

most of the advisers i talked to say they don't believe that's going to happen, they do believe the lawyers and through legal maneuvering are going to be able to delay these trials, but, they aren't entirely positive that is the case particularly as these dates mount up. i'll show you what the calendar is now. these dates are subject to change. look at them, october 23rd, 2023. that's the proposed trial date for georgia. then you look at january. the second is the potential trial for the 2020 election charges, the 15th is both the iowa caucus and potentially the e. jean carroll civil trial, march 5th, super tuesday, the 25th. stormy daniels' hush money troil. this gives you an idea why they're having these kinds of conversations. one of the things they hope for and one of the strategies they hope to implore is making this a media spectacle and capitalizing on it, one thing they believe

former president trump is good at doing and they point to the coverage on thursday, they were happy with the way the coverage went, they felt they dominated the air waves and sucked the life out of many of the other candidates even though there had been a republican primary debate the day before and they also talk about the fact that former president trump is good at capitalizing when he has media attention, showing the fact he was able to go on twitter, putting out his mug shot for the first time since january of 2021. this is something people were speculating about. he's continuing to grasp on to the modia narrative and that's what their hope is that he can do during these trials. even though they say that they believe it will help him politically i talked to a number of trump allies and operatives say they believe this endless media coverage no matter how trump spins it is kpoingoing to is is going ton exhausting for voters. it's a waiting and seeing game

but this is how they are preparing. kristen holmes, cnn, washington. following the first primary debate political newcomer vivek ramaswamy continued his two-day swing in iowa. ramaswamy has a packed schedule for saturday, he's set to start the day with a breakfast round table, attend an india day celebration, a cookout and gop event and governor ron desantis is moving forward with his never back down bus tour through iowa, a few campaign stops, during one stop desantis reminds voters over his successes in florida over immigration. here he is. >> listen on that stage at the debate the other night of the things that were discussed i'm the only one that's ever done anything about any of those, the immigration, you know, in florida we've sent people in the border, we've interdicted boats coming from haiti, we've sent illegal aliens to martha's

vineyard. >> now, there may not have been a clear winner to the first republican presidential debate but many americans saw a glimpse of the candidates and their take on hot button topics. cnn's john king tells us why some iowa voters have shifted favorites after watching the debate. >> reporter: it is debate night and in iowa -- popcorn is the st snack of choice. betsy sar cone is thrilled to watch with her parents and thrilled donald trump decided to boycott and leave the stage to others. >> i think that in the past it's kind of felt like the schoolyard bully calling his friends names, and i'm not really interested in that. >> sarcone is a suburban mother and two-time trump voter eager to move on. >> i am pulled towards desantis. >> governor ron desantis was her favorite when he first met several weeks ago and when she tuned in. but the debate shook things up. >> my personal favorite was nikki haley. she had a lot of commentary on different topics and i said, i

agreed with everything she said right there. she also came across as not nasty, but knowledgeable. there's a difference. >> this is a typical presidential install. >> chris mott, a strong trump supporter and when we first met had this to say about the former south carolina governor. >> not a big nikki haley fan. >> why? >> i've just everreally -- >> no connection. >> connected to her. >> he's still for trump but after the debate said nikki haley made good use of her tame. forsythe liked haley's style, and her take on abortion. >> let's treat this like the respectful issue it is. >> nikki haley really helped herself, forsythe told us so a good night for haley was good takeaway from our iowa group, and another, that ramaswamy stirs a trump divide. trump supporter mud loved it,

i'm for the usa, mudd texted, trump wraps that best in my opinion, vivek sounds great, not to forsythe. this is earlier this month after forsythe attended a ramaswamy event. >> i get the feeling he's brilliant, he's got energy, he's young, i really liked him. >> post debate, this. he just isn'tdown up enough to be president. he's trying to be trump. but he isn't. sarcone and her parents also unimpressed. >> i think ramaswamy's probably went down because of that abrasiveness. >> what is toxic in the suburbs is often tonic to others in today's gop. >> so, trump people might have found that attractive about ramaswamy, right, so he might pull some of that crowd, who knows. >> trump is way ahead and that won't change if the anti-trump vote is sprinkled across this debate stage. >> our country is in decline. >> his statement was powerful when he said the country is in a downward spiral, and desantis has been elevated for me.

>> reporter: that's a shift from a few weeks ago. >> there's just a lot of -- around him, is that a technical term? hypothetical wow these booming suburbs shake out matters, even if there is a new favorite after debate number one. >> so desantis haley ticket? or a haley desantis. haley desantis. >> yes, yes. >> reporter: the shopping will continue, and for many, math, more than policy, will shape the final choice. the question is, can she win? right, so that's -- that's my main question, she personally would be my favorite candidate right now. but desantis, you know, at this point, looks more viable. >> pass the popcorn. the second debate is in a month. >> president biden is expected to roll out the first ten drugs he wants to negotiate pricing on when it comes to medicare for senior citizens. sources briefed on the subject say the move is expected to happen tuesday. the controversial program is part of the inflation reduction

act, which democrats pushed througcongress last year, and any new prices negotiated would take effect in 2026. the congressional budget office estimates it could save medicare more than $98 billion in ten years. and president biden says he's signed off on a proposal to request more congressional funding to fight covid-19. officials say updated vaccines are expected to land in drug stores and health facilities in mid-september. the new vaccines have been tweaked to fend off the current crop of variants circulating in the u.s., and it comes amid a late summer uptick in covid cases. the centers for disease control and prevention says there was a 22% jump in cases requiring hospitalization in the past week. a new study found additional benefits in a popular pharmaceutical drug beyond its prescribed uses. researchers say that diabetes and weight loss drug significantly reduced symptoms and improved quality of life in people with obesity and the most common form of heart failure, less shortness of breath,
