2:01 am
>> well, welcome to all of you watching us here in the united states, canada and all around the world. i'm kim brunhuber. this is cnn newsroom. an explosive meeting at the white house is raising questions about america's alliances. what the path to peace in ukraine looks like. now. israel has once again cut off humanitarian aid to gaza as phase one of the ceasefire ends. we'll take a look at the sticking points in the negotiations over phase two, plus, a deadly measles outbreak is spreading across the united states. we'll look at what we know about the confirmed cases in texas. >> live from atlanta. this is cnn newsroom with kim brunhuber. >> ukrainian president volodymyr zelenskyy is expected to receive a massive show of support today from more than a dozen european leaders. they're scheduled to attend a ukraine summit in london. president zelenskyy met saturday with british prime minister keir starmer in london. the pair finalized loans from
2:02 am
the u.k. for more than $2 billion, and zelenskyy received a reception that was quite different from his experience in washington on friday. he said the meeting in london was significant and warm, and the prime minister's comments were a big change from president trump's. >> that your very, very welcome here in downing street. um, and as you heard from the cheers of the street outside, um, you have full backing across the united kingdom. >> compare that to this chaotic scene from friday with president trump shouting at president zelenskyy. that meeting ended with white house officials asking the ukrainian president to leave. cnn's clare sebastian joins us now from london with more. so, clare, as we said there for president zelenskyy, those two meetings, washington and london, a study in contrasts. so for ukraine, huge stakes today. >> oh yeah. absolutely kim and i think look the optics do matter. obviously we saw on saturday keir starmer come out of number
2:03 am
ten downing street behind me greet president zelenskyy in person. we know that president zelenskyy will also be meeting with the king later today ahead of that european summit, which i think matters, especially since we saw prime minister keir starmer offer a letter to president trump on thursday in the white house, inviting him to a second state visit. i think the fact that the same audience is now being afforded to president zelenskyy and of course, meetings with the king usually only happen at the after advice from the government. i think that sort of, you know, really reinforces this message of solidarity we're getting here, but we're getting a little bit more information because clearly, this is not just a moment about optics. the prime minister, keir starmer, along with his european counterparts, really need to start focusing on action here. and he just said on the bbc this morning in an interview that he's going to be working on a peace deal with france and ukraine, which they'll then present to the u.s. and that is clearly going to be one of their key tasks today. i think there are risks here. europeans have to group together. they have to show unity. they have to show
2:04 am
solidarity with the ukraine, but they don't want to be seen on the flip side, to be ganging up on the united states, because we know that they are still looking to salvage that relationship. for example, prime minister of italy giorgia meloni will be heading to downing street this morning to meet with keir starmer. she will potentially be a key figure when it comes to rebuilding that bridge to the u.s. she is a key ally. we know of of donald trump. she was the only european leader invited to the inauguration, so that will be an interesting meeting there. but overall, this is a really critical moment for europe to show unity and, crucially, to step up and try to figure out how it can support ukraine. when we see this significant drop in relations between not only ukraine and the u.s., but also the fragility of this moment for europe, as the prime minister put it this morning. >> yeah, that's right, because ukraine, of course, the item on the agenda. but in the end, for these european leaders, it is ultimately about more than just ukraine. right? >> well, i think when you see the u.s. president in the oval
2:05 am
office say things like, i am not aligned with anyone. european leaders have to step up. and i think, look, clearly they knew that this was on the agenda when president trump took office, i was speaking to european leaders, for example, last summer, and they said, we know we're facing a more isolationist u.s., but this is now happening at such a pace that we're in a position where they really haven't got a choice but to step up. and i think you're going to be hearing that message from the u.k. in particular, a country which came out last week, just two days before keir starmer went to the white house and pledged to raise defense spending to 2.5% by 2027. there are still one third of nato countries that don't spend that 2% target on defense. so you're going to be hearing from nato secretary general today, who will clearly be pushing that line, pushing for more action from european countries as they really look to step up and take more responsibility for their own security. in the face of this new stance, this new set of policies from the united states. >> all right. appreciate that. clare sebastian live in london. and cnn's matthew chance is in moscow with a look at how
2:06 am
russian officials are reacting. >> well, the kremlin. >> has been tight lipped about the spectacle that unfolded in the oval office. but reactions from other russian officials are essentially supportive of trump and his vice president. that president zelenskyy alone was was disrespectful. the russian foreign ministry spokeswoman said she was surprised that trump and vance didn't slap him. a senior russian official said it was brilliant that zelenskyy had kicked out the white house, and a key russian envoy called the spat a historic. i believe that very public fallout between the u.s. and ukraine represents a sea change in u.s. relations with its allies and with russia. the big question now is how this episode may affect talks between u.s. and russian officials, aimed at rebuilding the relationship between two countries. will it hold them back or maybe even bring them forward? a much touted summit between president trump and vladimir putin. matthew chance, cnn, moscow. >> well, we're getting another view of what happened during that disastrous friday meeting in the oval office. the u.s.
2:07 am
national security adviser appears to be blaming the situation on president zelenskyy. listen to this. >> they were. >> stunned. >> uh, i don't know. >> how they thought. >> that could move. >> forward after that kind of. very public. >> episode with the in. >> the, you know, the entire. >> world watching. but it. >> was really his team. >> and as you saw from his ambassador, as she just put her head in her hand, uh, in the middle of the oval office that knew the gravity of what had just happened. uh, that the american patients had run out. that this president's patience had run out. uh, that he was personally insulted. we made it clear that the negotiation, which could have been a fantastic day for them and the country was over. uh, and that it was time to go. >> ukrainian president is still looking for u.s. support. he posted this on social media. quote, it's crucial for us to have president trump's support. he wants to end the war, but no one wants peace more than we do.
2:08 am
we are the ones living this war in ukraine. it's a fight for our freedom, for our very survival. all right. i want to bring in steven erlanger, who is the new york times chief diplomatic correspondent and joins us now from berlin. thank you so much for being here with us. so in the wake of that disaster in dc, most of the president's republican allies have said the meeting was a win for the white house. and the recurring phrase they used sort of echoed what we heard from house speaker mike johnson that it was an american president putting america first. so are america's allies getting a new appreciation for exactly what that phrase means now? >> it's a very good question. i mean, there was a lot of childish behavior in the oval office, and that's true of both sides. both sides lost their cool. i think the trump people saw it as great television. i think they saw it as a gesture to. their base, to maga
2:09 am
president. getting upset. vance, who has not been very important to this, making a big splash. um, the allies have already been very nervous. i think there's a big difference here. which one wants to be clear about trump wants a ceasefire right away. that's what he wants. zelenskyy wants assurances, security assurances that if there is a ceasefire, russia will not violate that ceasefire as it's done in the past. that was really the source of the huge argument. and what the europeans are trying to do with keir starmers help, of course, is to create some sort of plan that brings zelenskyy and trump back together again and provide some kind of security assurances that zelenskyy needs to reassure his own country, which has been at war, that a ceasefire would not simply be to the advantage of vladimir putin. >> beyond just ukraine. i mean,
2:10 am
it seems as if european leaders are trying to do both things at once, saying the days of counting on the u.s. are over, while at the same time trying desperately to repair that relationship. is that possible, do you think, under the trump administration, because you've written about how president trump seems to see europe more as an enemy than an ally? so is there anything that european leaders can actually do to appease trump? >> well, there are a lot of people who there's a kind of european schizophrenia, which i think you've you've described very, very well. on the one hand, they need the united states. i mean, they need the nuclear umbrella. now that trump people have never suggested getting rid of the american nuclear umbrella over europe, at the same time, article five nato's commitment to collective defense is about credibility. it's about belief that the united states would act should something terrible happen in europe. i.e. from russia. now,
2:11 am
if that credibility is torn away, and i believe the trump people are tearing it away, that has the europeans running around in a great swivet. one, because, sure, they have money. they can spend more on defense. but if they perceive the trump people really are not interested in europe and see europe, and particularly the european union with its regulations and its climate restrictions and its, its, its restrictions on hate speech as an adversary of the united states, which trump seems to believe, then it doesn't matter how much american liquid natural gas you buy or how many american weapons, that's not going to satisfy the trump people. >> well, okay, so you spoke of of nato there. the head of nato called that meeting between zelenskyy and trump very unfortunate. but hear what the former supreme allied commander of nato told cnn on friday.
2:12 am
listen to this. >> i don't want to be overly dramatic, but we could be looking at the last days of nato, and this is a gut issue about who are you going to support a democracy that's under attack, or are you going to support a dictator in moscow? this is going to drive a wedge deep into the heart of the alliance, and it's going to bleed over beyond ukraine. >> so what do you think? i mean, is that overly dramatic? are nato's days numbered? >> i think it is overly dramatic, to be honest. i mean, nato is something i don't think vladimir putin wants to test. he's pretty busy in ukraine and there's talk about america pulling out some of its troops. there's talk about lots of things. but let's look at what's actually happened right now. you have a hissy fit fight between ukraine, which feels it's its war is at risk. and
2:13 am
donald trump, who feels that he's not getting enough gratitude from ukraine and who wants to end the fighting very quickly and doesn't seem to be very interested in security assurances, though he says that's for the europeans to do. and that's exactly what the europeans are doing in the last few days and again today. so let's see what happens. i don't think this is the end of, of of nato. no, i don't. >> um, listen, uh, always great to get your analysis, uh, on all of this. steve erlanger in berlin. thank you so much. >> thank you. >> israel says it's stopping all humanitarian aid from going into gaza. now, this comes as phase one of the ceasefire between israel and hamas has expired. cnn's larry madowo has more now from paris. larry, take us through israel's decision, the
2:14 am
reaction and the impact it could have on so many civilians. kim. israeli prime minister benjamin netanyahu has decided. >> with immediate effect. >> that no more aid or supplies will be getting into gaza. as of this morning. >> trucks are. >> not being allowed to get into the enclave, and this is because israel says there will be no ceasefire. >> without the. >> release of hostages. they are still believed to be about 24 israeli hostages still living that are in gaza. hamas has rejected a u.s. proposal to extend the current first phase of the ceasefire deal that expired yesterday on saturday. under this u.s. proposal by steve witkoff, the u.s. special envoy, hamas would release half of the current hostages still in gaza. and then at the end of the negotiation period, the other half, living and dead that remain in exchange for that, there more aid would be allowed to get into gaza. the period is supposed to cover until the end of the jewish holiday of
2:15 am
passover. that's on april 20th. it would also cover all of the holy month of ramadan until the end of march. however, hamas is rejecting this as a war crime, calling it manipulation that israel is trying to sabotage the deal and saying they will not agree to it. they want the second phase of this to go into effect, which would be for israel to withdraw any troops that are still in parts of gaza and to discuss the end of the war. they are not happy that this extension goes on, where israel gets more of its hostages, but does not commit to an end to the war. that is the big leverage they have here. hostages on the side of hamas and the surge of aid into gaza that is desperately needed. most of this enclave right now is in ruins. after 15 months of this war. and here, from this one person who is in gaza, who desperately needs for this truce to hold. >> we hope the ceasefire. >> continues, is renewed and becomes permanent between all
2:16 am
parties, mediators, especially the united states, as a primary broker must exert strong pressure on all sides, along with egyptian and qatari mediators, given their long standing experience in this matter, all issues must be resolved. both palestinians and israelis long for peace and coexistence. the two state solution is the most suitable option. >> the israeli foreign minister has said a short while ago that they will not do this for free, essentially saying the only way for this to keep going is for the continued release of hostages, which hamas is rejecting. this throws the entire ceasefire into lots of questions. egypt and qatar have been mediating in this. we have not heard their reactions to this essentially stalemate between israel and hamas. and what happens now is a big question mark. if the war does continue, that leads to even more suffering for the people of gaza. yeah, just like that man we spoke to there. larry madowo, thanks so much for that update.
2:17 am
appreciate it. we are monitoring pope francis's health after a worrying respiratory episode. we'll have the latest from rome on how the pontiff is doing. plus, there are now more reported cases of measles in western texas. most cases are in children ages 5 to 17. we'll bring you an update just ahead. and more on the global fallout from the disastrous white house meeting between ukrainian president vladimir zelenskyy and u.s. president donald trump. stay with us. >> still have moderate to severe ulcerative colitis or crohn's disease symptoms after taking a medication like humira or remicade. put them in check with rinvoq, a once daily pill. >> when symptoms try to take control. i got rapid relief with rinvoq. check. >> when flares try to slow me down, i got lasting remission with rinvoq. check. and many were in remission even at nearly two years. >> and rinvoq helped visibly reduce damage of the intestinal lining. check. >> rapid symptom relief. lasting remission.

2:21 am
>> right on time. >> stay in the know from your doc to their door. >> pope francis had a peaceful night. according to the vatican, and is resting at rome's gemelli hospital. on friday, the pontiff suffered what was called an episode of respiratory difficulty. he required high flow oxygen therapy using noninvasive mechanical ventilation to treat his double pneumonia. on saturday, people gathered at the vatican to pray for the pontiff's continued recovery. his mood and mobility brought encouragement for many. joining us live now from rome in cnn's vatican correspondent christopher lam. so, christopher, we got our usual, uh, update from the vatican. so bring us the latest. well, kim. >> the news from the vatican about the pope's condition in
2:22 am
recent hours has been encouraging. we were told, as usual, that the pope had a quiet or peaceful night, that he's resting this morning. uh, but yesterday, on saturday, we were told the pope's in a stable condition. he didn't have any more respiratory crises, as we were told about on friday. however, he is still on high flow oxygen through a nasal cannulas or nasal tubes and a vent mask. he's also on oxygen through a machine ventilator, again through a mask. a noninvasive form of treatment and the prognosis for the pope remains guarded or reserved. it's still too soon to tell. of course, the pope has been in the gemelli hospital behind me since february the 14th, the longest hospital stay of his pontificate. he has pneumonia in both of his lungs. he's 88 years old and has a history of respiratory infections. the vatican saying he will not lead the sunday angelus prayer from the gemelli. it's the third sunday in a row where he won't
2:23 am
lead that sunday prayer. and of course, there are many people who are praying for francis at this time. it's concerning to hear of the pope's condition. and of course, today is sunday. catholics across the world and in rome will be going to mass and praying for francis. but it's not just catholics who are showing their support for the pope. the imam of the grand mosque of rome has sent a message to the pope on the eve of ramadan. he said that he was praying for francis's health, describing the pope as a figure not just for catholics but for all believers, a figure he said, for for humanity, a voice for peace and fraternity. so it's not just those in the catholic church concerned about francis, but people across the world. it seems. now we are expecting a further update from the vatican on the pope's health this evening, where we will know more about how his condition is faring. kim. >> all right. so many across the
2:24 am
world will be following that update with bated breath. christopher lam in rome, thanks so much. well, next month, the u.s. president, donald trump, will have his annual physical exam, the first of his second term. the president's doctors say he will be examined at walter reed national military medical center. trump is 78 years old. he's the second oldest to serve in office, after former president joe biden. and by the time his term is over, he'll be the oldest president in u.s. history. health officials say there are now 146 cases of measles in western texas. and for the first time in a decade, one person has died from the measles. cnn's jenn sullivan reports. >> jerry moran is the measles outbreak worsens in texas? there's growing concerns over public safety. >> we are seeing a worrying, expanding outbreak of measles. >> in western texas. at least 146 cases of measles have been reported this year. but doctor jennifer shuford says those
2:25 am
numbers could be much higher. >> this is actually larger than our confirmed count case, and it continues to grow. >> the latest update from state health officials comes just days after the outbreak's first death. a school aged child who was not vaccinated and had been hospitalized in lubbock. measles is a highly contagious disease that can cause a rash of red spots fever, cough and red, watery eyes. health officials say the best protection is to get the mmr vaccine, which protects against measles, mumps and rubella. >> it's really only the unvaccinated that are at risk. >> the first dose of the vaccine is typically given to children ages 12 to 15 months, and is 93% effective. the second dose, given to kids between 4 and 6 years old, is about 97% effective, according to the u.s. centers for disease control and prevention. health officials warned that infants who are not yet eligible for the vaccine are at a high risk during an outbreak.
2:26 am
>> we know they can have really serious outcomes, and so it is something that we are concerned about that we're following closely and trying to intervene on. >> while the majority of cases are emerging in texas, at least eight other states have reported a total of 18 measles cases this year, according to the cdc. i'm jenn sullivan reporting. >> and the cdc says that last year, a total of 285 cases were reported in the u.s. this year. as of today, there are 146 just in west texas. all right. just ahead, we have new details about the state of the ceasefire in gaza as israel halts all humanitarian aid to the enclave. stay with us. >> the united states of scandal with jake tapper next sunday at nine on cnn. payne hits fast. so get relief fast. only tylenol rapid release gels have laser drilled holes. they release

2:29 am
2:30 am
>> 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. in the coming hours, many european leaders plan to show their support for ukraine. they're set to attend a ukraine summit in london with ukrainian president volodymyr zelenskyy. british prime minister keir starmer tells the bbc that he's going to work with ukraine, france and possibly 1 or 2 others on a plan to stop the fighting. he says they'll present that plan to the united states. on saturday, the ukrainian president met with the prime minister. zelenskyy said the meeting was significant and warm. now things were dramatically different at the white house on friday, with president trump shouting at president zelenskyy. the meeting ended abruptly as white house officials asked the ukrainian leader to leave. our an update on another one of our top stories. israel says it's stopping the entry of all humanitarian aid into gaza. and now hamas is calling that move cheap blackmail and a war crime. the first phase of their
quote
2:31 am
ceasefire hit its official expiration date on saturday. hamas is refusing a u.s. backed extension and is insisting on advancing to the next stage. now, this proposal that israel supports would carry the first phase of ceasefire through the islamic holy month of ramadan and the jewish passover. all right. for more on the impact on gaza, we're joined by caroline seguin. she's the project coordinator for médecins sans frontieres, or doctors without borders. and she joins us from al-mawasi, gaza. thank you so much for being here with us. this must come as a shock, this sudden stopping of aid. did you get any warning that this might happen? >> um, no. it has. been very shocking. we received. >> the information this morning. >> through the. >> media that all the trucks, the that was supposed to enter in gaza will not enter anymore. so we are extremely shocked and shock that it was not planned.
2:32 am
shocked by the fact that we were planning to receive a buy, medicines and essential items to continue to operate inside the gaza. >> yeah. so you speak of, uh, medicines and essential supplies? i mean, just tell me exactly from the medical side, how will this impact on what you do there on the ground. >> we are very. again, we are still under shock. um, so we will need, of course, to have a medication to continue to treat the patient. uh, like, for example, we still have patients with chronic diseases that cannot stop their treatment. uh, we will need fuel as well to continue to operate in the hospital. we will need to have a medical equipment as well to continue to, uh, to treat the patients inside gaza. and so, uh, we were able in the past weeks to increase our stock, but our stock is not that huge, and we will need to refill it very quickly. >> yeah. i mean, already so many
2:33 am
medical facilities in gaza, practically all the hospitals and other medical facilities had been destroyed during the war. the ceasefire allowed sort of a build up of capacity again. now, with this happening with with no access to medicines and so on. i mean, is this literally cutting off a lifeline for for many in gaza? will people die as a result of this? >> oh yes, yes, yes. people will die because of that, that's for sure. remember that this week, uh, there is even children that died because of the cold, uh, winter. um, and so it's not only a medical supply that would enter, but as well proper shelter. um, again, uh, supply to increase the, the water system that has been largely broken. and again, as you mentioned, many hospitals has been, uh, totally destroyed or partially destroyed, and they need to be rehabilitated. uh, for example, there is some hospital where the generator has
2:34 am
been deliberately, uh, broken by the israeli forces. there is a lot of medical equipment that are now needed because it has been broken during the the past war. >> yeah. and we've spoken of many things specifically in terms of food. i mean, there already wasn't enough getting into gaza, uh, because of not just the volume of trucks, but all the challenges of delivering it with so much infrastructure like roads and supply buildings destroyed. uh, and then you have the the longer term effects here. you know, people in gaza only getting largely packaged goods, flour cans and so on. everything is either not available or so expensive. so this will obviously make all of that worse from from the short term in terms of starvation and the longer term. speak to me about the the health effects that this will have on so many. >> this is very devastating. you know, this since this morning, my my team palestinian team that
2:35 am
is working with us is very worried, mainly because of food. uh, because, um, they suffered a lot in the past months, uh, with the restriction on the, on food entering in gaza. so we saw as well that we had many cases of malnutrition that were that was increasing as well. and so with the news of this morning, everybody is very worried. uh, we see, uh, very quickly the impact on the price in the market. so in gaza city, uh, the bag of flour, the price of the bag of flour has doubled since this morning. it has been very fast. uh, for example, eggs in gaza city has been multiplied by 150% of the price. so, of course, the price will increase a lot, and the availability of food will decrease. so we are expecting to have more cases of malnutrition and probably more children that will die due to this malnutrition. and some of them were still not cured. uh, since the last month. so we are
2:36 am
very, very, very worried of the huge impact related to food as well. >> yeah. such a huge impact, as you say. let's hope, uh, aid is restored as soon as possible. kailey leinz, again, thank you so much. appreciate it. >> thank you. thank you. >> all right. >> after the break, the united states weather agency grapples with terminations amid a worsening climate crisis with peak severe weather season approaching. plus, opponents of elon musk send a message from tesla showrooms. want that and more coming up. stay with us. >> amid upheaval and sweeping. >> changes. >> the president of the united states. >> trump heads to capitol hill to share what's next. follow cnn for complete coverage and in-depth analysis. the presidential address to congress tuesday at eight on cnn. >> and. >> with flonase. allergies don't have to be scary. spraying flonase daily gives you

2:40 am
announced his new campaign saturday, nearly four years after he resigned from office. 11 women accused him of sexual misconduct, allegations he still denies. cuomo appears to be hoping the controversy surrounding current mayor eric adams could give him the opening. he needs to unseat the incumbent. a u.s. federal judge has ruled that president donald trump can't fire the head of a government watchdog agency. the white house attempted to fire special counsel hampton dellinger without cause. dellinger's office protects whistleblowers from retaliation. on saturday, judge amy berman jackson declared that he is entitled to stay in his job. she says ruling otherwise would offer the president a constitutional license to bully officials in the executive branch into doing his will. the trump administration is expected to appeal some 800 people working at the national oceanic and atmospheric administration are out of their jobs after another round of federal
2:41 am
terminations. last week, the trump administration fired probationary employees, generally those who have been in their positions for a year or less, including scientists and specialists who study weather patterns and climate systems. at least 100 of the laid off employees worked for the national weather service, and some worked in the hurricane research division, which focuses on improving forecast data and accuracy. well, now concerns are being raised about the already understaffed agency's capabilities as extreme weather season approaches here in the u.s. on friday, democratic senator chris van hollen said, quote, without the warnings of severe weather events, people will die and others will suffer greatly, including huge property loss. all right. for more on this, i want to go to juan de loreto in washington, dc. he's a senior social scientist for climate vulnerability with the union of concerned scientists. climate and energy program. good to have you with us. we seem to have lost him. hope. okay. we do
2:42 am
have him. okay. well, i'll start here then, i guess. uh, hurricanes and extreme weather are generally becoming more frequent and more destructive with, uh, with climate change. so cutting noaa in terms of its weather forecasting. what effect could this have? >> yeah. >> um, thank you for having me. i mean, these fires signal an attack on the scientific enterprise and the scientific expertise that creates the data and information that keep people safe. um, during, uh, extreme weather. and as you said, the hurricane season that is coming up in june, um, is going to catch us unaware and without the information that we need to. and the policymakers and first responders and people who mandate evacuations need to have to keep people safe. >> yeah, specifically, i mean, you talked about first responders there. it might mean people on the ground have sort of less time to prepare for these emergencies because noaa helped with that coordination
2:43 am
between state agencies and emergency responders. >> well, noaa provides the scientific data that is the basis for the information and for for first responders and others to, to, to to evacuate. but not only that, i mean, we're talking about also information that's critical for aviation, for land, maritime transport, um of people and goods to keep that safe. i mean, what happens when you don't have the information for a major airport like los angeles or, um, or new york city or chicago to have the forecast that they used to have of storms in advance. how do traffic controllers know, um, how they're going to reroute or ground planes? >> yeah. and when we're talking about weather, i mean, certainly some of the people who are most affected by that are farmers. so what effect might that have on on food production, for instance? >> well, farmers may not know when the drought conditions or flood conditions, you know, too much water or too little rain are going to impair their, their crops. so, um, it may have some,
2:44 am
some, some downstream economic impacts. >> yeah. and then there are things like, you know, ocean monitoring the longer term sort of climate monitoring, which will have an effect on, on the response to climate change, which i guess was part of the point from the trump administration's point of view of of making these cuts. but all of that could have a real impact on, on things like economic planning on military operations and infrastructure. >> yeah. >> as you said, you know, climate change is a big area and responsibility for noaa and the. an agency that is recognized globally as a powerhouse in extreme weather monitoring in ocean conditions, monitoring in climate change, um, studies and research. and so without that information, we are flying blind into a hurricane season that has been made demonstrably worse by climate change. >> yeah. and there are so many
2:45 am
more, uh, impacts as well that we didn't have time to get into, but certainly, uh, it can't be overstated, really appreciate, uh, your talking us through juan barreto. thank you so much. >> thank you for your time. >> well, demonstrators gathered at more than 50 tesla showrooms around the u.s. on saturday to protest elon musk's efforts as head of the so-called department of government efficiency. he's been working under donald trump to improve performance by cutting costs and by firing employees. but the so-called tesla takedown is meant to encourage company stockholders to sell your teslas, dump your stock and join the picket lines. the movement is gaining traction internationally as well. a protest was held in barcelona on friday and three are taking place over the weekend in london, lisbon and reykjavik. all right. coming up next, we'll look at the oscars, the films and stars who are vying for those precious trophies that the 97th academy awards. just ahead,

david johansen, the last surviving member of the flamboyant glam band the new york dolls, has died at the age of 75. >> feeling hot, hot, hot. >> party people. >> all around me. >> feeling hot. >> hot, hot. >> johansen's. alter ego, buster poindexter scored a huge hit in 1988 with that song hot hot, hot. his new york dolls never found huge commercial success, but they were acclaimed for their sound and androgynous style that attracted a cult following. johansen died friday at his home in new york city. it was revealed earlier this year he had stage four cancer and a brain tumor. we're still waiting for investigators to tell us exactly why. legendary actor gene hackman and his wife died, but new details are emerging. cnn's julia vargas jones has more from new mexico. >> new mexico. >> authorities releasing two. >> new, crucial. >> pieces of. >> information that are. >> pushing this. >> investigation forward. >> one of them is that.
2:51 am
>> gene hackman was likely dead for nine days before he and his wife were found in their santa fe home, and that's. >> according to data from. >> his pacemaker analyzed. >> by forensic. >> pathologists working with authorities here on this case. the last activity recorded on that pacemaker was on february 17th. the other piece of information is that both gene hackman and miss arakawa tested negative for carbon monoxide poisoning. that's notable because neither of them had any physical external signs of trauma on their bodies when they were found, and no foul play is suspected at this point. although the sheriff here did say that he hasn't been completely ruled out. it is an ongoing investigation and that they are still carrying out. in a search warrant released on friday, we got some more details about the deputies that responded to this call, what they saw as they entered the home. one of the things that is noted is that the deputy believed that they might have both fallen in separate rooms of the house. mr. arakawa in a bathroom where she was on the floor next to a space heater and
2:52 am
with pills scattered on the counter near her. and mr. hackman was near the kitchen in a sort of mud room of the house, with a cane and sunglasses. next to him. some medication was recovered from the house, according to this warrant. some medication for a thyroid issues, medication for blood pressure, as well as tylenol and some medical records as well. the sheriff did say that in this investigation, timing has been a challenge. piecing together a timeline has been really difficult because this was a couple that lived a very private life and lived in a secluded home here in santa fe, with no recording devices in the home. they did recover both of their cell phones, which they will be analyzing for further clues, but he said that they're trying to piece together a timeline from the time of their deaths into the days and hours up until they died. this, of course, pointing to the toxicology report in the autopsy as the main sources of
2:53 am
information, they should come in the next 3 to 6 weeks, although they did warn that it could take even longer. julia vargas jones cnn, santa fe, new mexico. >> and gene hackman is one of many actors set to be honored and recognized for their work at the academy awards. tonight. netflix's drug cartel musical emilia pérez leads the pack with 13 nominations, including the most coveted best picture category, but its chances of walking away with oscar gold may have tanked. offensive social media comments by the film's star and best actress nominee, karla sofia gascon, have cast a shadow on the film, now trailing behind with ten nominations. each is the brutalist, which won big at the golden globes, and wicked, the long awaited adaptation of the broadway musical. now, despite blockbuster numbers at the box office, the film has had problems converting nominations for various awards into red carpet wins. and there is one performance everyone will watch. comedian and longtime talk show
2:54 am
host conan o'brien, who will make his debut as host of the oscars spectacle. now, earlier, i spoke with entertainment journalist andrew freund about his predictions, and we were both surprised to learn that comedian conan o'brien will be the oscars host for his very first time. here he is. >> i thought conan had hosted before, but this is in fact his first time hosting the academy awards. he is so excited he's already making jokes. he said that he hasn't been attending the rehearsals, but he's been hanging out at the cheesecake factory instead. so i think that hollywood is ready for conan. he knows most of the people in the room. he's interviewed them before, and i think he is going to make a hilarious host and, you know, bring some light hearted laughing to the city right now, kim, because, you know, we need we need to laugh. we need to laugh a little bit. >> yeah. and you said the key word there lighthearted. i mean, he's not the edgiest choice. and that's one of the reasons i imagine they chose him. according to the ceo of the academy, conan is fairly apolitical, and that's what
2:55 am
they said they're hoping for. and that's been the message as well to the artists. but at the end of the day, you know, some of them, some of the some of the movies themselves are political. and then there's the wild card, the actors, you never know what they're going to say when they actually get up there on stage. so, um, we're living in such polarizing times, keeping it apolitical. easier said than done, right? >> yeah. you know, kim, i think that all went out the window on friday with what we saw at the white house. i think you're going to see that carry over, um, at the awards, and we are going to see a lot of the actors stand with ukraine. i think that they're going to talk about it. i think they're going to be loud and really, you know, talk about how, you know, the millions of americans that stand with ukraine and especially here in hollywood, that tends to be a little bit more left leaning. um, i think this might be the most politically political oscars ever, in fact. >> interesting. all right. well, that's certainly something to watch for. but of course, what we are really watching for is,
2:56 am
is the movies themselves. so let's get to that. maybe the hottest contests are best picture and best lead actor. what are your picks? and will the voters in the academy see it the same way? >> so i think that for best picture, a nora is going to take it. now i will say it was not my personal favorite film of the year. my personal favorite film of the year was the substance. however, nora has won the palme d'or at cannes. it won best director at the dga, it won the pga, it won the critics choice award. so i do think that nora is going to take best picture now in terms of best actor, i think that adrien brody will take it for the brutalists. however, we saw last week, timothee chalamet won the s.a.g. award for his film, so it could be a toss up between timothee chalamet for a complete unknown and adrien brody for the brutalist. >> all right, we shall see. that wraps this hour of cnn newsroom. i'm kim brunhuber for viewers in north america. cnn this morning is next. but the rest of

2:59 am
has less major bleeding. over 97% of eliquis patients did not experience a stroke. >> don't stop. eliquis without asking your doctor. stroke risk may increase. >> eliquis can cause. >> serious and in rare cases, fatal bleeding. don't take if you have an artificial heart valve, abnormal bleeding or antiphospholipid syndrome. while taking you may bruise more easily or bleed longer. a spinal injection increases blood clot risk, which may cause paralysis. get medical help right away for unexpected bleeding or bruising or tingling. numbness or muscle weakness. aspirin products nsaids, ssris and snris and blood thinners increase bleeding risk. tell your doctor about planned medical or dental procedures. >> ask about the number one prescribed blood thinner eliquis. with the vision to see what's possible and the grit to make it happen. morgan stanley can help create the future.
