minute. >> and i'm max foster. just ahead -- >> donald trump in his own words, i do nearby waive formal arraignment and enter my plea of not guilty. i full i understand the nature of the offenses charged. >> i have not seen any evidence that d.a. willis' actions or lack thereof warrant action by the prosecuting attorney oversight commission. >> we're going to follow the law and the constitution. regardless of who it helps or harms politically. >> today is going to be a good day. i'm not going to cry. you hug the first person and that is all you want to do is cry. i don't want to be upset, but nothing is moving. >> live from london, this is "cnn newsroom" with max foster

d bianca nobilo. >> it is friday,eptember 1. anformer donald trump has again pleaded not guilty this time to racketeering charges in the judge in that case has signaled his intention to televise and live stream all proceedings going forward. but trump has waived next week's arraignment, so he won't be seen in court. >> meanwhile a judge could rule at anytime on a motion by co-defendant mark meadows who wants his case moved from georgia to a federal court. a ruling in meadows' favor could alter the dynamics of the case. >> sara murray has the latest from washington. >> reporter: donald trump officially entering his plea of not guilty in the sprawling racketeering case he faces in fulton county, georgia where he and 18 other co-defendants were charged for their efforts to allegedly try to overturn the 2020 presidential election results in georgia. donald trump is now one of five again of the 19 co-defendants in that case who have entered not

guilty pleas and waived their right to an arraignment, that means that we won't see donald trump showing up next week in the fulton county courthouse, we won't see him on camera as many have expected. and now it is a question of what happens next. his attorney has moved to sever his case from other co-defendants saying while some want to move head with a speedy trial, donald trump is not one of them. his attorney says there is no way that he will be ready for trial by then. also possible that we could see donald trump's team try to move this into federal court. they have not made that attempt yet, but others involved in this case have. trump's team may be waiting to see how his other co-defendants fair before they make their play to move trump's case to federal court. urray, cnn, washington. some republican lawmakers in georgia have been demanding a special session to punish the woman leading the case against

trump and many of the co-defendants. but the georgia republican governor not on board. >> brian kemp says he has seen no evidence that fani willis did anything to deserve impeachment or defunding of her office. and he says this is possibly unconstitutional. >> the bottom line is that in the state of georgia, as long as i'm governor, we're going to follow the law and the constitution. regardless of who is helping or harms politically. and in georgia, we will not be engaging in political theater that only inflames emotions of the moment. >> new financial disclosures from u.s. supreme court justice clarence thomas and samuel alito reveal gifts and travel. one was a trip to rome paid for by the religious liberty initiative. thomas is disclosing for the first time private jet trips

paid for by harlen crow. and there were also three properties thomas sold to crow. those transactions were not previously disclosed by the justice. here is how one former federal judge weighed in on the matter. >> the notion for example as justice thomas said that he had to take a private plane after the dodd decision because of security issues, dodd was in may of 2022. that hardly justifies all of the flights that predated that. and then he said that he needed to take one of these private planes for an ice storm. unless we're prepared to give a fleet of private planes to all of the federal judges on the public dime, that just doesn't make sense. but more significant, this is someone who simply is giving the

back of the hand to the existing disclosure rules and that should be troubling whatever side you're on. and the august jobs report is due out in the coming hours. the u.s. economy is expected to have added 17500,000 jobs and t unemployment rate is expected to hold steady. analysts say it could slow too much into a negative. for the fourth day in a row, russia is reporting ukrainian drone attacks on its soil. >> officials say air defenses intercepted one drone heading in the general direction of moscow while another a city damaging the building. flights are now back to normal. acss the border ukraine says its troops are heading toward a

village which ukrainians recently captured. >> and they are up against amaze of heavily fortified trenches and obstacles that russia has been building for months. ukraine has been facing criticize that the counteroffensive is slow which prompted a angry response from its foreign minister on thursday. >>a angry response from its foreign minister on thursday. >> criticizing and spitting into the face of a ukrainian sold engineer who sacrificed his life every day liberating one soldier after the another, i recommend all critics to shut up, come to ukraine and try to liberate one square centimeter by themselves. thank you. >> meanwhile they say ukraine has successfully used a new weapon. didn't give any details.

cnn couldn't independently verify that claim. >> and caiind katie is followin for us. never have so many drones been used in a conflict as this one. but it is difficult to tell exactly what they being that they are achieving by these overnight attacks which are not causing huge amount of consequences. what happened last night and what impact is it having? >> you are right to point that out because they are not having considerable damage to buildings, to any kind of infrastructure or causing any casualties or any injuries to people. and it is worth noting that. how far, however, the tactic may just be to cause a essential of anxiety, a war on the psyche perhaps. to give a sense to russian people that this war is also going to affect them, that these drones are reaching far into russian territory and well away from the frontline. and it is clear if we look at how ukraine is investing in its manufacturing capacity, that these drone tactics are here to

stay. we heard just this morning we were looking at some figures from the ukrainian government that look at drone manufacturing now double what it was a month ago. so 200 to 300 drone manufacturers just in the last month. beginning of the war, it was just 30. so that shows you where this is moving. and as you point out, how this is changening conflicts to come. but worth bearing in mind this is all happening while there is still very much on the ground land offensive continuing, it is making marginal gains. there were considerable gains in the last couple of days. there was interesting notes overnight from ukrainian, they are claiming that they have broken first line of defense, these heavily fortified trenches that the russians have dug in on the southern frontline. that is quite notable and foreign minister is sounding dwenks recei defensive and quite angry about people's criticism. they feel that they might start to have the upper hand, they are

starting to keep progressing, pushing the russians back towards that frontline. and it is notable if you look at where they were last week, they captured a small village near the southern frontier and kept pushing. they didn't stop. and they are definitely not retreating. so that speaks to a real sense that they think the war is turning potentially their way. >> katie polglase, thank you so much. and they are pushing for renewal of the black sea grain deal. >> and the secretary-general guterres said thirst that he sent a letter with concrete proposals. but he warned the renewal of the deal must be stable.a letter wi proposals. but he warned the renewal of the deal must be stable. sergey lavrov said that he wants to see some guarantees. >> translator: as you know, president putin has repeatedly officially stated clearly that all measures are taken not on the negotiations of the russian

part of the black sea package but taken to solve all problems that have remained unfulfilled. despite the promises of the u.n. secretary-general whose efforts we appreciate, but as soon as the talks turn into more concrete decisions on the same day, we are ready to resume the ukrainian part of the grain package. >> russia pulled out of the u.n. broker deal in july. the black sea agreement allowed for safe passage of ukrainian and russian exports and other goods. just ahead, hong kong is bracing for a hit from a major typhoon. we'll tell you how people are prepare for what could be the worst storm to hit the region in years. plus the latest on an inmate who escaped from a pennsylvania prison and the conviction in the stabbing death of his girlfriend. details when we come back. and after the wildfires in hawaii, we have the latest numbers for those still missing. h freshness boosters.

will persist for the next few days off the southeastern coast. and in florida, the hurricane caused between $12 billion and $20 billion in damage. president biden has approved a major disaster declaration and he plans to tour the damage on saturday. >> to the people of florida and throughout the southeast, i'm here to make clear that our nation has your back and we are not going to walk away. we're not going to give up. we're not going to slow down. >> we are due to get our next update on typhoon as it approaches hong kong and the southern coast of china. it has been weakening somewhat, but forecasters warn it is still a powerful and dangerous storm. maximum sustained winds at 140 miles per hour. >> and saola is skirting the

coast right now and it could make a direct hit or spin away. the warning is at its highest level with heavy rain, violent wind and damaging storm surge expected in low lying coastal areas. let's go live now to hong kong and kristie lu stout. you are working for home because of these conditions and the threat that they might pose. how are hong kong and southern china bracing for the arrival of this typhoon? >> reporter: here we are hunkering down for the arrival of typhoon saola. signal number 8 has been lifted, that is the third highest, that has effectively shut donewn the entire city and that is why i'm working from home because most businesses have been closed, schools have been closed, the hong kong stock exchange has been closed. virtually all flights are canceled to and from the territy. we have a statement that we can

bring up for you. th say with thexception of cx 80 septemr 1 to jfk, all flights arriving and departs from hong kong between 2:00 p.m. on saturday and 10:00 p.m. on saturday have been canceled. the hong kong airport authority adds that 366 flights have been canceled, 40 more have been delayed. we're also closely monitoring the situation in mainland china. on thursday authorities raised the typhoon warning to the highest level. we know that in two mega cities in the south, that schools have been closed this day starting from 4:00 p.m., just the top of the hour, markets, businesses have been closed. authorities have urged residents to stay at home. and there are reports of some 4,000 train services across the province have been suspended. authorities in china not taking any chances given recent extreme weather events in china.

quite recently beijing and surrounding provinces struggled with record-breaking rains an flooding that took the lives of dozens of people and displaced about 1.5 million residents.nfl of dozens of people and displaced about 1.5 million residents. as i look out the window, there is more and more rain. and they say conditions will rapidly deteriorate. residents are advised to stay indoors. >> and we're looking at that graphic, there is actually two typhoons headed towards you. what is the story with the other one? >> reporter: yeah, there are two typhoons in the region. you have typhoon saola heading this way, and the other one is heading towards taiwan. it is due to make landfall there on sunday bringing with it some very heavy rain. and after that, it will sweep through to eastern china hitting

an area about 100 to 200 miles south of shanghai. but by the time it hits eastern china, it is expected to weaken to equivalent of category 1 # or c category 2 hurricane but still one to watch. >> all right. kristie lu stout, thank you for joining us. now the latest in hawaii after the deadly wildfires raged through maui at the beginning of august. the state's governor says the official number of people still missing will be updated later today. >> governor josh green says he believes the new number will be in the lower double digits. possibly less than 50. natasha chen has more on how the people of that you we are dealing with the disaster. >> it is hard, it is hard to take in seeing all this devastation. >> reporter: even as lahaina fire survivors take stock of what is left of their historic community -- >> make me cry. make me cry. >> reporter: -- officials are trying to identify the bodies of

those lost. but it is a mystery at the moment how many are still missing. right now they are investigating about 100 missing person reports. >> i'll be like today will be a good day, i'm not going to cry. you hug the first person and all you want to do is cry. >> reporter: and this woman's home still standing but has no idea what condition it is in. she is with her family in temporary housing not living, she says, just existing. >> i don't want to be angry and i don't want to be upset, but nothing is moving. >> reporter: the number of dead stands at 115. a number that hasn't moved in ten days. active search and rescue is over as federal agencies are now working to remove hazardous materials and debris to make it safe for families to return to their neighborhoods. most lahaina students have to either enroll on other schools on the island or take virtual classes at least until mid october. the entire survival and recovery process has surfaced long held skepticism and resentment toward

outside authority which many locals have historically blamed for mismanaging the land and water. >> i'm directing my team do everything we can for as long as it takes to help maui recover, rebuild and in a way that respects and honors hawaiian traditions and cultures and the needs of thele local community. we're not going to turn this into a new land grab. >> but who has he talked to? who has he really sat down with and said what is it going to take? >> reporter: she questions whether this tragedy could have been prevented. residents in the county of maui are suing hawaii electric accusing the utility of not properly maintaining power lines that remained energized leading up to august 8th. the company says a downed power line in lahaina seems to have sparked flames that morning but says the cause of the fire that afternoon is still unknown. and while sirens have not previously been used for wildfires on maui, new protocols will soon be shared. >> as we go forward, we need to educate the public on what do

they need to do when a vine so siren sounds and that includes visitors. >> reporter: and tourism authority says they are losing $9 million each day with a steep drop in daily passenger arrivals to the island. local businesses are laying off employees. >> we've had people cancel their reservations all the way through december of this year. >> reporter: air maui has lady off laid off seven dispatchers. they used to fly more than two dozen trips a day and now they take turns making one or two. while they want tourists to stay away from burned areas, need people to visit the east are of maui. >> most people who live here have two jobs to sustain themselves, so they won't be able to pay their bills and home mortgages on employment insurance. it won't cut it. >> reporter: and he mentioned mortgages. there is temporary relief there. the state of hawaii says borrowers with fannie mae or

freddie mac and fha can pause payments through early november. and hud says in many cases they can reduce or suspend payments by up to 12 months by working with their lernslenders but int may still accrue. natasha chen, cnn, los angeles. and in johannesburg, they are still investigating why the building went up in flames. >> and some victims were burned beyond recognition. 12 children were among the dead and it left dozens of people injured. a center has been set up for those looking for missing loved ones. >> the five-storey building had once served as a women's shelter but had been turned in to an informal housing complex. the south african president says it is a wake-up call. >> the lesson for us is that we've got to address this problem.

and root out those criminal elements because it is these types of buildings that are taken over by criminals who they lay on vulnerable people and families who need and want accommodation in a city. >> the building that burned ways owned by the city of johannesburg but cities say it was, quote, hijacked. david mckenzie explains. >> reporter: a woman's wail pierces streets of johannesburg. more than 70 people are now dead and dozens injured after a brutal fire tore through a five-storey building in the center of the south african city. >> people they make noise. fire, fire, fire! >> reporter: survivors like this man say he was woken up by screams in the early hours of the morning and raced to get ouf

of the building but the gates were locked. >> so i come begging at the gate. >> reporter: the smoke quickly smothering him. >> the smoke was coming for me. >> reporter: authorities quickly on the scene moving through the building floor by floor. and pulling out charred bodies and others remain missing. another survivor who lost three sisters describes how her niece was thrown out the window and caught by people who already made it outside. you look at this building behind

me, you can imagine the chaos and the terror that ensued. people desperately trying to get out of the packed apartments. floors of it totally gutted as as people were burnt to death. this is what is known as a hijacked building in south africa, taken over by gangs and mostly leased to poor migrants. >> this for me, it was bound to happen. what you see in this building, i can tell you -- i can take you to buildings where people live worse than pigs. >> reporter: this tragedy thank gelled into the deeply engrained inequality across the country. many of the people lived here were migrants just hoping to start a new life. instead, emergency services now sorting through the ashes of the little that is left. david mckenzie, cnn, johannesburg. still ahead, a u.s. judge hands down some of the longest

welcome back. i'm bianca nobilo. >> i'm max foster. let me bring you up-to-date with the top stories. typhoon saola is moving closer to china. schools and most businesses are closed and hundreds of flights have been canceled. donald trump pleaded not guilty to trying to overturn his election loss in georgia. and trump's lawyers say he will not appear in person for next week's scheduled arraignment. the biden administration has proposed a rule aimed at curbing the so-called gun show loophole. people selling guns would be required to perform background checks on buyers. pennsylvania and federal law enforcement agencies are on a manhunt for the inmate they are describing as, quote, extremely

dangerous. they say he escaped from a prison outside philadelphia on thursday morning. >> cavadanelo cavalcante is in s on for murder of his former girlfriend. he stabbed her 38 times in front of her kids and warns he could be capeable of anything. >> his depravity knows no bounds. he has nothing to lose. so i don't know what he is capable of doing. if he is already engaged in murder in broad daylight in front of her two children, there is no stopping him from doing anything more egregious. two leaders of proud boys have been sentenced for their roles in the january 6 attack on the u.s. capitol. >> joseph and zachary each revealed double digit prison sentences. both men were convicted earlier this year of seditious conspiracy. evan perez reports from washington. >> reporter: a federal judge handed down lengthy prison

sentences to two members of the far right pro trump proud boys group for their roles in the january 6 attack on the u.s. capitol. judge kelly sentenced joseph biggs to 17 years and he sentenced zachary reel oto 15 years. speaking from the bench during the biggs sentencing, the judge said the nature of the constitutional moment we were in that day is something that is so sensitive that it deserves a significant sentence. the two men are the first of five members of the proud boys set to be sentenced in the coming days and that includes the leader of the group. prosecutors asked for sentences of more than 30 years for each of the proud boys members. both men spoke tearfully in court noting that they will now lose out on seeing their daughters grow up. biggs told the court i know that i messed up that day but i'm not a terrorist.erehl told the judg

interest in politics saying i'm done peddling lies about people who don't care with me. a clear reference to donald trump who faces his own day in federal court in washington in the coming months. evan perez, cnn, washington. more condemnation coming in for the military coup in gabon with plans to suspend gabon from all activities until constitutional order is restored. >> the military took over and says that the general who led the coup will be sworn in as transitional president on monday. deposed president bongo appealed while being held on house arrest. the coup happened shortly after bo this. go was declared the winner. >> let's get perspective from jim birth man join-- birth man

joining from us france. is this a similar story to niger? >> reporter: similar but different. and still this is a part of africa that france likes to believe that it has some influence, but clearly it does not. president macron was speaking to ambassadors who gathered here monday for their annual meeting and he lamented the fact that what he called this epidemic of coup d'etats across africa and then just 48 hours later we have this c coup d'etat in gabon. so and u.n. secretary-general had this to say. >> many countries face deep seeded governor nance challenges. but military governments are not the solution.nance challenges.

but military governments are not the solution. they aggravate problem, they cannot resolve a crisis, they can only make it worse. i urge all countries to move quickly to establish credible democratic institutions and rule of law. >> reporter: each one of these countries have a different reason i think for wanting to be behind a coup dat coup. in gabon, the situation for each person is very bad but the country is very rich. and they were suffering under the hands of more than 50 years of a dynasty led by the bongo family, omar and ali, who were allegedly very, very corrupt. had for one thing houses in paris, a lavish amount of money that the coup d'etat found in their houses everyone in the last few hours. so there was a lot of corruption there. and the election was very

dubious indeed. on the other hand, the coup d'etat in niger was outside an election which they believe was pretty well conducted. so a lot of different reasons, but the impact is really unsettling for military and political leaders here in western europe. >> jim, thank you so much for your perspective and analysis on that trending story across africa. unbelievable. >> eighth coup since 2020. north koreans who have been stranded abroad for the past three years will finally be able to return home because pyongyang has begun lifting the tight covid restrictions that effectively sealed its borders. >> paula hancocks is in seoul and has this report. >> reporter: north korea's athletes are back on the global stage. its tae kwon do team headlined at the opening ceremony of the world championships this month believed to be the first overseas sporting engagement since its borders reopened.

pyongyang confirmed the borders are reopening to allow citizens stranded outside the country for more than 3 1/2 years to return, one week quarantine require order arrival. north korean restrictions were among the harshest in the world and considered one of the last countries to reopen the borders and even then, they are only reopening a crack. but tourism is still a dream. tours which specializes in taking westerners into north korea says they have heard nothing beyond plans to repatriate its own citizens. quarantine alone makes tourism impracticalable. >> businesspeople, diplomats, workers, wait staff, students, all kinds of people essentially marooned outside of their country with in most cases no way to contact family for 3 1/2 years. >> reporter: but a man went on a tour of north korea one year before the borders closed. created videos of his

experience. >> you go and everybody hopes that they will see a bit more of the real north korea which won't happen. like they show you the places that they want to show you and it is the best of the best. all the lawyer people live in pyongyang, the wealthy people among all the north koreans. so, no, you are probably far from certain realities. >> reporter: he does see value in north koreans seeing foreigners in their country but acknowledges useful interactions with the people are rare. western tour operators already a niche market are likely to be among the last to be invited back. >> the tourism market in north korea over the few years prior to the shutdown exploded hugely to the point where the north koreans brought in a limit on chinese visitors of 1,000 per day to pyongyang. that limit was routinely breached. >> reporter: one other group waiting to be allowed back in, diplomats. the vast majority of them left during the pandemic unable to

send supplies in or rotate staff out. and so far only russian and chinese officials have been invited back to pyongyang since the restrictions eased. paula hancocks, cnn, seoul. the coach of spain men's football team set to announce his quad for the euro qualifiers, but likely to get questions about that kiss everybody is talking about. we're live from madrid next. am i? ya! the queen sleep nunumber c2 smart bed is now only $999. plus free e home delivery when you add a base shop now only at sleep number.

in the coming hours the coach of spain's men's national football team due to announce his squad lineup for matches during the qualifying phase of euro 2024. and he can expect questions of course about the spanish football chief luis rubiales who is under temporary suspension after forcibly kissing jenni hermoso, the woman's world cup final last month. >> and now the president of uefa

has broken his silence. alexander called rubiales' behavior inappropriate. and a teetika shubert is joinin for more. all these questions and the controversy is your shadowing the tournament. >> reporter: that is true. and we've heard that from a lot of the players. on the other hand i spoke to the women's league president yesterday and she said that while it is disappointing, there is a sort of divine justice that what is happening to rubiales is happening because of the issue of women's football and there are deep structural problems within the federation. you know, we had a chance to look at this by speaking with the man who filed the original complaint at the world cup and keep in mind the number of complaints has now blown up to 16. so there is a lot more to come.

at the moment of spain's triumph, an unwanted kiss now threatens to bring down luis rubiales, the powerful president of the spanish football federation. rubiales apologized but it was not enough. and he became the target of national anger, a wave against sexism and sport triggered in part byly gel, at his unassuming office in madrid, officially head of trainers, but unofficial unofficially he has filed many complaints and now he hopes to take down another with this kiss. it was a sexist and in-tollerable act he said to cnn by a president who is already

plagued by corruption scandals and sexism. steeped in tradition, spain's royal football federation has long ruled over the nation's lucrative football fortunes. when the fundamentment ror broke, spain's prosecutor was already investigating rubiales for trafficking in influence and bribery. allegations rubiales has consistently denied. cnn has reached out to both the federation and rubiales. neither have responded. and now women footballers have entered the professional ranks. they are demanding equal pay, rights and structural change says the president of spain's women's league. and alvarez has had her own disagreements with rubiales. in that federation meeting that totally delirious speech he made, she says, look at how they applauded him. it is unacceptable, it shows that more than the president has to change, the entire model has

to change. as the scandal grows at the rubiales hometown church, his mother went on hunger strike to support her embattled son briefly hospitalized, she continues to defend his innocence even as others close to him are speaking out. his own uncle told spanish news that the kiss was just the tip of the iceberg. i was not surprised by that at all, he said. he is an extremely arrogant man who has not acted as a president should. instead of being a political leader, he wanted to be a warrior who sees ghosts and enemies everywhere, he said, in the end his own worst enemy was himself. spain's historic win at the women's world cup it seems is forging a path for change in more ways than one. now, the federation is trying to push ahead with business as usual as you point out with this

press conference expected in under two hours. but keep in mind that fente was one of those who applauded rubiales. so many calling for his resignation as well and he is bound to face questions over that in the press conference. >> really exposed a lot of cultural questions. atika shubert, thank you for following this story for us. ♪ welcome to the acoustic setting. >> do not worry if you can't get tickets to taylor swift's tour. ahead we'll tell you how you can still get a front row seat for the show. ♪
