fight to the death to keep cavanaugh off the port because he's male and white and christian. that's basically what schumer's decision was. but the targets are not really individuals like brett cavanaugh or of course i've been called every name in the book as well. the target is america area and how do we know this?i have a whole chapter called america the ugly which is the democrats view of america. and the new york times disgraceful, disgusting project called the 1619 project which was cooked up by a racist staff member. named nicole hannah jones who had a $6000 macarthur genius grant and i think she won the pulitzer . she's a historical illiterate . and the project is to deny that 1776 is america's birth certificate and 1787 actually, it's founded. but let's take 1776 and say that no, 1619 is the founding . and then thought racist out sharpton, the spiritual leader of the black lives matter movement gave that wretched, despicable racist eulogy. he said white america has its knee on the next of black people of black america. for black people. for 401 years. that goes back to

been saving up your whole life if they've taken every dime for you or from you then you can now cavanaugh wrote the opinion very predictable he's a little twit who has always worked for corporate america never done anything for consumers in this country has always been at the beck and call he is their boy he writes this opinion and so is the opinion comes out and says hey wait a 2nd we can't even look at this because you didn't bankrupt the pension program you had to bankrupt the pension program to say that everybody has a loss you can't say that you have a loss to even bring the case right you don't have what they call standing up because you did the company's not bankrupt so this bonehead says yeah this is how we're going to protect wall street one more time 230000000000 dollars $230000000000.00 moves from a pension programs to money predator managers they call themselves managers the predators that's all they are right and what's interesting about this you know to kind of hit on the point you just brought up yet these are the pension funds put together by a corporation or a public enti

with me now, from portland, is cnn correspondent lucy cavanaugh. lucy, you have been there for a while now. how is it starting off there? it's still early, of course, when it comes to how these things ratchet up normally. >> that's right, michael. i mean, it's calm. it's peaceful. i would say there's over a thousand people on the streets of portland this evening. they've been chanting feds go home. they've been chanting black lives matter. they've been chanting say his name, george floyd. which is, of course, the original impetus for these protests. these racial justice protests that are now entering their 60th day. i want to make a quick point about that stabbing that you mentioned. that actually took place a few blocks away from here. as far as we understand, it's not connected to the protests here. the atmosphere, largely peaceful. the protestors standing their ground. turning out, night after night. but the federal agents, who are largely holed up behind the fence there at the courthouse building behind me, also stand their ground. the way this

lucy cavanaugh, cnn, portland. >>> well, the public viewing for the late civil rights icon and u.s. congressman john lewis is set to resume in the next couple of hours. his body is lying in state in the capital rotunda. he's the first black lawmaker to receive that high honor. members of both parties paid tribute to lewis as a leader and fight for equality. joe biden and his wife also visited the casket to pay their respects. john lewis was 80 years old. y 1. helping to prevent gum disease and bad breath. never settle for 25%. always go for 100. bring out the bold™ well, you see here... there's a photo of you and there's a photo of your mommy and then there's a picture of me. but before our story it goes way, way, way back with your great, great, great grandparents. see this handsome man, his name is william. william fell in love with rose and they had a kid. his name was charles and charles met martha... isn't she pretty? yeah. we were paying an arm and a leg for postage. i remember setting up shipstation. one or two clicks and everything was up and running. i was printing out labe

cnn's lucy cavanaugh is live for us there. tell us about this ruling. what's been the reaction to it? and what's happening there? >> that's right, michael. well, the attorney general, here, in oregon, filed this lawsuit on july 17th, against homeland security, u.s. customs and border patrol, the u.s. marshall service, and other agencies to stop them grabbing and seizing oregonians off the streets in unmarked vans. basically, to identify themselves whenever they detain a person. and not to detain people without probable cause. the judge, today, denied that request. he explained the reasoning in a 14-page decision. saying while this case does involve allegations of harm by law enforcement, the claimant in this case is not a protestor. he also said that the state was not seeking redress for past harm done, but rather, trying to prevent future action of these federal agencies, which he called, basically, something that the state does not have any grounds to require. so he denied that request. reaction to that, i will say that, the focus here, on the ground,

cnn's randy kay and cnn's lucy cavanaugh are in those states and they have an update. >> the concern this holiday weekend is more spike and more spread. already, more than 9,400 new cases in the last 24 hours, here, in the state of florida. florida is now averaging more covid cases, per day, than any other state in the country. and most of the cases are young people. in fact, the median age for cases, here, in the state of florida, is now 37. it was 65. 25 to 34-year-olds now make up 20% of the cases, here, in the state of florida. about 7,000 minors, statewide, have now tested positive for coronavirus. but the governor is, still, not putting out a statewide mandate to close the beaches, nor is he saying that everyone in the state has to wear a mask. here, in palm beach county, you can tell that the beaches here, behind me, they are quiet today. they will be closed through the weekend. so will the beaches in miami-dade county south of here, as well as broward county south of here. and we're also learning more about an 11-year-old boy who passed away from covid here in the state of fl

lucy cavanaugh in portland. thank you. >>> it was a day of laughter, tears, and plenty of stories about the man who became such a towering figure in the civil rights movement. our martin savidge has more on the emotional outpouring, as loved ones gathered to celebrate the life and legacy of john lewis. >> reporter: today was the first of what will be many days of good-byes for former civil rights icon and congressman, john lewis. it began in his hometown, and it started with his home family. troy, alabama, is a rural community. not that far away from montgomery, alabama, the capital. and it's where john lewis grew up. in a very segregated jim crow south, at the time. but a lot has changed, in his life, since then. and has changed in alabama. so, in that community, they gathered today, as family and those who knew him, to remember the boy from troy. that's actually a nickname that the reverend martin luther king jr. gave to john lewis when they first met in 1958. it was a nickname that john lewis was always very

i have no updates for you, but like the supreme court ruling, i would refer you back to justice cavanaugh who said we're judges, not members of congress. today's victory is brought about by judicial tidictates. >> can you really say that the rise in testing accounts for the rise in the number of cases? because the percentage of those testing positive has risen sharply. >> so i would say to this, as we have always said there would be embers, there would be fires. we readily acknowledge the embers and fires around the country, but we also note that it's logic, basic common sense when you test more than any other country, you're going to identify more cases. we've tested more than 40 million. but when you see that mortality has come down per thousand population, in a way that it was not months ago in new york and new jersey, we have become very adept at our therapeutics in ways of finding ways in communities, rather than in hospitals catching things early. >> the travel ban. what is the rational now for keeping people from europe and the uk from the united states when they have a fraction oh

jim cavanaugh of the nixon foundation and his wife ester in the front row. hugh hewitt the president of the nixon foundation you will hear from in a few moments. we have many distinguished guests with us here, many former officials from the nixon and other administrations and staff and friends of the nixon foundation and we're honored to have you here tonight. this year marks the 50th anniversary of patricia nixon becoming the first lady of the united states. under her leadership the white house collection added over 600 paintings and furnishing elements to the white house collection which is the most of any presidency. the significance of this will be discussed in tonight's program, but it's very important to us here at the white house historical association as a core part of our mission which was inspired as most of you or all of you know by first lady jacqueline kennedy to be the private, nonpartisan for the beautiful state rooms in the white house, for the acquisition of items for the permanent collection at the white house as well, and for our education

close each one had a $7.00 to $2.00 majority that included trump appointees justices gorsuch and cavanaugh off the court threw out the president's lawyers arguments that their client has immunity from investigation in both cases chief justice john roberts writing that no so there's a lot even the president is categorically above the common duty to produce evidence when called upon in a criminal proceeding so authorities in new york are allowed to secure records from the president's accounting firm through the courts the city's district attorney hailed the decision cyrus vance jr said it's in keeping with the u.s.a.'s founding principles and added the investigation which was delayed for almost a year by this lawsuit will resume guided as always by the grand jury solemn obligation to follow the law and the facts wherever they may lead but new york's grand jury investigation into potential wrongdoing by trump and the trouble is held in secret so barring a leak the public will not see the records if and when it receives them investigators are looking into whether an alleged hush money deal wit

raped by corporate america with kavana types that's ok and you know what the truth is it's not just cavanaugh it's all these federal judges that are being appointed by our trunks and i'd love to say there's a difference between those judges in the trump judges that were appointed but there's not right the only disc difference between the trump judges and the obama judges is the social issues we have seen plenty obama judges pillage the environment absolutely destroyed consumers rights destroy workers' rights and we have talked about every one of those stories as it happened all but god forbid we should talk about god forbid we should talk about obama appointments because we're not being tribal bad news is we're not trying we call balls and strikes and that's what we're doing right here one more point you saw the article we were able to settle the case with monsanto and bear for $10000000000.00 next week we're going to pick up with the story while we're talking about court systems we're going to pick up with a story about the ugliest bunch of class action predators maybe i've ever run into sin

across those board those arguments are really rejected by 7 justices for important clued in justice cavanaugh and justice for such president trying to reason appointees that said elease in the congressional case the supreme court said that there were still issues of concern here that were legitimate and regarding how these requests will impact the president's ability to pursue his job and separation of powers concerns those are the issues they're sending back to the lower court to have the lower court take another look at and develop further in their analysis of whether the subpoena should be enforced or not what do you think it is that that donald trump is more worried could be revealed what is it that that the democrats are hoping is revealed. that's a good question and i don't really know the currently possible the president has pursued maybe unorthodox business practices unorthodox business relationships unorthodox tax practices and in many cases people suggest that they may be related to loans or procedures he from businesses with russia or with other foreign governments that the preside

even close or $72.00 majority in both cases which includes in the majority justices gorsuch and cavanaugh who donald trump's nominees for the supreme court in the 1st case than the new york case the justices throwing out this idea from donald trump's lawyers that the request for financial information from donald trump's accountants was simply harassment and would set a precedent that would mean that all future presidents would be open to harassment from politically motivated district attorneys around the country by flooding the white house with subpoenas let's see record had no time for that basically saying there's plenty of legal precedent with presidents cooperating with legal investigations so they didn't really have a have a leg to stand on that now then goes back to so that this information then will eventually be released to the new york district attorney's grand jury but these proceedings will be in private the grand jury is a body that decides whether someone should be indicted for these these are held these proceedings are held behind closed doors because if someone isn't indict

supremes court has disagreed a $7.00 to $2.00 margin including both of trump's appointees such as mr cavanaugh which will probably lead to some grumpy reading in the white house but one would imagine that saying wait a 2nd no there is a special immunity from from these sorts of proceedings for the president it's true however the legal precedent does suggest that a sitting president called be indicted but the investigations can still go on the can still be under way requests for documents and still happen as we've seen with president nixon president clinton clinton was deposed by by prosecutor ones so that was always a bit tenuous there is precedent to share presidents have surrender information to the legal legal authorities and the idea though that he'll be overly bold good bye bye bye requests that doesn't stand up to president either as i discovered you know in the supreme court case that led to the release of the watergate tapes so 1st defeat then the president this is an obstacle for going as the congressional case as far as the election is concerned because the grand jury in new york's p

. >> i'm lucy cavanaugh in houston, texas. more than 8,000 new coronavirus cases reported.its second deadliest day since the pandemic began. hospitals for now able to deal with the current crisis, but they are worried they won't be able to cope if these trends aren't reversed. >>> i'm in scottsdale, arizona. we are inside the debate over the pandemic in arizona. this is one of 18 locations of the mountainside fitness gym chain which is currently suing the state over new regulations and deaths rise in arizona. people are still working out and t gyms, movie theaters, others shut down as the state deals with a resurgent pandemic. >>> i'm pete mundene in washington. the tsa had to close part of security at the world's busiest airport in atlanta. security at the main domestic terminal closed for deep cleaning after a worker there tested positive for coronavirus. tsa numbers show that more than 860 tsa workers have tested positive for coronavirus since this pandemic began. the head of the tsa says the agency is opening more lanes a the all airports across the country to keep wait

. >> i'm lucy cavanaugh in denver citing a worrisome spike of covid-19 cases among young people, theado governor is requiring bars as of today to stop serving alcohol after 10 p.m. getting drunk in public isn't conducive to social distancing. this will, quote, destroy an already growing business. >>> i'm athena jones in new york. the governor of ohio has issued a travel advisory recommending that anyone who travels to ohio self quarantine for 14 days upon arrival. right now that list includes nine states and puerto rico. governor also said today starting at 6 p.m. masks will be required for people 10 years old older when in public and when in an indoor location rather than at home or when riding taxis, ride shares or public transportation. >>> i'm miguel marquez in phoenix, arizona, where protestors here and around the state are launching motor marches. they're honking throughout their school districts telling the governor here that they are concerned about the level of covid cases in the state and they are afraid that if the governor, who's meant to make a decision soon, if he opens

let's go to lucy cavanaugh, she's in texas as officials report a record new number of cases yet again. lucy, we see these lines and it is a fairly consistent thing and it is not a particularly efficient and effective way to get people tested. why is this happening? >> well, the issue is here in texas they simply don't know what the peak is in terms of the virus. they don't know how much of the virus, and this facility opened from 9:00 a.m. local time to 4:00 p.m. local time and it is something we saw at other facilities and something we saw in dallas and it just shows you how much capacity is needed even though texas has 900 testing sites and the state shattering new records, 6,975 new cases announced yesterday and and that's increasing the single rate of 1,000 cases and very worrying. >> we saw the governor admitting on some tv news interviews earlier this week that perhaps the state went a little bit too aggressively in terms of reopening. he's rolled back, for example, bars are now shut. restaurant capacity, and whether shutting down the economy makes sense even though medical offi

cnn's lucy cavanaugh has more. >> we are in downtown portland.e federal court house building is behind me. you can hear the sounds of demonstrators banging on the metal fence that has been erected to keep a distance between the federal protestors and the federal court house. the federal agents are coming out responding with flash bangs trying to disperse the crowd. the crowd is smaller. there was 5,000 people who came out yesterday. there hasn't been as big of a presence this eke. it's an interesting observation. there's almost two moods to the protests evening after evening. earlier there was a much larger crowd. there are fathers, moms, military veterans coming out to further the message of black lives matter, to speak about the racial inequality happening here in america. in the later showers you hear chance like feds go home and that is when the federal court house becomes the focal point and we see clashes and tensions ensue. copacabana beac cnn, portland. >>> derek graff joins me now. he is the author of "raven rock." thank you for talking

cnn correspondent lucy cavanaugh is in houston with a closer look now. >> reporter: well, texans areeing encouraged to take all possible precautions this fourth of july weekend as the state continues to battle with a surge in coronavirus cases. friday saw 7555 new cases bringing the total now to more than 183,000. those numbers are quite high. hospitals feeling the pinch. more than 7,600 coronavirus cases. pardon me, patients at hospitals. that's something that the medical facilities are dealing here. here in houston, the positivity rate is hovering around 25%, it's really putting a strain on some facilities. some hospitals, in fact, so overwhelmed they have to start transferring patients out to other facilities. now, on friday, the governor's mask mandate went into effect. what it means is that if you are a texan, if you live in a county that has 20 or more cases, you have to wear a mask in public. this applies to roughly 95% of all texans. that's one of the precautions that they're putting into place to try to curb the stem of this virus to try to reduce the rates. and of course, d

lucy cavanaugh, do they have enough beds for patients? >> reporter: they have enough to deal with the numbers right now but that's not going to be su stanible if these trends continue and have been breaking records every single day. we saw more than 8,000 coronavirus cases, more than 6,500 people hospitalized in texas and the state reporting the second deadliest day yesterday. coming to hospital bed capacity, there's flexibility. they can cancel elective surgeries, add beds to areas of emergencies. here where we are it is a testing facility and treating covid patients and ran out of room in the covid ward a few weeks ago and then readjust and built another ward. of course, not all hospitals have that capacity and the other problem, brooke, we are going into the fourth of july holiday weekend and no statewide mask mandate here. a lot of parks are open. people expected to be out and about and what doctors say is every time there's a big holiday weekend, they have seen a massive surge and worried about what's on the horizon. >> covid ward in

and or search and cavanaugh although they agreed with the majority opinion, they also made note the presidenthould have some claim to block certain request in the lower court. and to your point about leaking the process through the lower courts may take so much time that if the president is worried about being known before the november election, because it is going back and restart, that may be politically against him. >> jesse: one williams why do you have to pester the president with superb list request? >> juan: [laughter] well, you know, at first i want to say i thought kennedy was on target overall. the key thing here for the president in the short term is that his taxes will not likely be out in public before the november election. so the short term my think although we saw him with his hands across his chanc chest log defensively and talking about obama and i witch hunt my think politically, jesse, he came out on top in terms of the congress not having immediate access to the records. in the long term, the big ticket is you have a conservative supreme court stating very clearly that in

supreme court stood up to donald trump and maybe most important of all, that included gorsuch and cavanaugh, his two appointees, and trump may have thought, i gave them their jobs and they would protect me and they didn't do it. and i think we should feel much better. >> in terms of how it is perceived, i think the president's critics, wanted even more mor more, it's the issue of timing, both of the cases, the subpoenas from congress and the subpoenas from the state prosecutors they go back to lower courts for the president to fight against the subpoenas there, and is there something important in terms of the speed with which the courts resolve things, when it's an important related to a president, or criminal matter. have the courts in the past shown the ability to move more quickly than we might otherwise expect? >> oh, sure they do. summer of 1974, supreme court moved in record time to resolve u.s. v nixon on the tapes, we remember bush v gore, when the supreme court was very fast in resolving that. you know, we have a judicial process that when speed is necessary, we often see it happen

. >> jim cavanaugh joining us with the insight over what is happens in portland. >>> i'll move on to the other breaking news. the national hurricane center update on hanna. it is nearly a hurricane. hanna expected to make landfall this afternoon or early evening in the most rural parts of texas. many areas will get a lot of rain and wind. many beaches in corpus christi are closed. a hurricane warning is in effect for much of the texas gulf coast right now as hanna nears. sand bags were filled and distributed for what is expected to be flash flooding. storm preparations are more complicated because of covid-19. >> take time to prepare yourself and your family. don't be the one that says i wish i did a little bit more before that hurricane or tropical storm came. >> wait. there's more. in the pacific, hurricane douglas is a powerful major category 3 hurricane. as it moves closer to hawaii, the storm will weaken. a hurricane watch is in effect for the islands of the big island and oahu and maui. >> we are anticipating significant wind, rain, flooding impact as well as storm surge along

: one of the most interesting aspects of this, matthew, in the 7/2 decision, justice gorsuch and cavanaugh voted in essence against the president. do you think that he is a little bit surprised at what his nominees did? >> he may have been surprised a few weeks ago when judge -- judge gore's itch ruled against him in the other decision. maybe it has worn off by now. you never know what judges, and many presidents have found themselves surprised after they nominate a justice to the supreme court only to find that the justice has in mind a mind of his own or her own in the case of sandra day o'connor, this is a political win for term, but an institutional victory for the court in which both cases they were demanded to the lower courts and replace the judiciary at the center. all of the future legal battles that the president trump is going to be wagering. >> john: susan, let me ask you about the effect on congress as well, nancy pelosi moved past this very quickly in her weekly press conference today. listen here. >> the president is not above the law. congress will continue to conduct overs

cavanaugh and barbara franklin will know so well from their days serving the president. and in their retirement, there were not a lot of people around, but i got to know mrs. nixon in her retirement. and in a very unusual way. 22 years old, don't know anyone in california. thanksgiving rolls around, and mrs. nixon invites me to dinner at thanksgiving at the casa pacifica. that was the first of many invitations at their three homes post presidency, in new york city, saddle river. but it was that first dinner when i'm 22 years old and i really don't know what i am doing, and i'm surrounded by the president of the united states, former president and former first lady, and their children, and she was the most incredibly gracious person to me, a youngster who really had no idea what they were doing, clueless as to manners, with the absolute expert in protocol. it was only five years later when my wife and i moved back to washington, d.c., to go to work for president reagan, and my wife's grandmother was living in the dresden, which many of you will know up on connecticut aven

. >> justice cavanaugh. >> chief justice and good morning general, to pick up on your comments earlier congress made clear that indians and non-indians were to be treated like pickup on justice gorsuch is reference to demographics and follow up with what i said in my earlier questions . my understanding is that as of 1890, this is a very unusual situation because it was already predominantly non-indian and indian territory . but congress in a very difficult position of figuring out what to do and i think that it's necessary to understand, to figure out what the text of these statutes mean so i guess my question on demographics is people talk about the demographics now but the demographics in 1894 also similar. how should that affect what we're thinking about and more particularly can you connect that to the text of the statute that congress enacted in that 17 year period. >> certainly justice kavanaugh, that's the right way to look at it. by statehood 90 percent of the area was non-indian. and i think what that means is that you have to figure out what congress was going to do which is

president trump's own appointees the corsets, but cavanaugh each ruled against him, and that your casencial information is made public could of had a profound effect on the upcoming november election. the president did issue a series of tweets this morning, here are some of his reaction, the supreme court since case back to lower court, arguments to continue, this is all a political prosecution, i one people witchhunts and others and now i have to keep fighting any politically corrupt new york not fair to the presidency, or the administration. as for the request from congress, the speaker of the house nancy pelosi also tweeted, this is not good news for the president, the court has reaffirmed that congress's authority to conduct oversight on behalf of the people as it has for further. we have to have more reaction coming up 9:00. >> this up in court already gave the trump administration and religious freedom supporters to victors this week on what yesterday the court decided that employees that serve in any faith-based capacity cannot sue for workplace discrimination. the other appel t
