11:01 am
>> i've hanako montgomery and tokyo and this is cnn for joining me. >> happy day on a trial is preparing for the star witness to finally take the stand tomorrow. >> trump's former fixer credit attorney, michael cohen, is expected to testify. cohen's testimony is seen as key for the prosecution's case and could signal the final stages of this historic trial. he will testify to his role in negotiating the alleged hush money payment to adult film star stormy daniel's on trump's behalf. and how his former boss reimbursed him. it follows a week, a blockbuster contentious and at times graphic testimony from daniels cnn's is that cohen is joining us right now. so zach, what can we expect from michael cohen's testimony because what's crucial to the
11:02 am
prosecution case is tying it to the fraudulent business records exactly right, fred. >> and this is the moment we've all been waiting for michael cohen is the only witness who can speak to the two critical parts that you just mentioned. one is tying donald trump to that decision to pay stormy daniels ahead of the 2016 election, that decision to buy, catch and kill unflattering stories about donald trump in an effort to protect him and his presidential bid in the second part of this is the decision after donald trump was elected president. this february 2017 meeting where donald trump allegedly agreed to the way michael cohen would be reimbursed for the hush money payment, michael cohen, again, the only witness that we've heard from who can connect both donald trump to both of those key pieces of the prosecution this case. but look, the jury has already heard plenty about michael cohen from other witnesses who have testified over the last three weeks, and most of it has been frankly unflattering. they painted him has an aggressive, impulsive attorney who was really, really loyal to donald trump. it would go too extreme steps to protect the former
11:03 am
president, both when he was just a private citizen and it candidate for president. and then also after he was in the oval office and we begin to expect on trump's attorneys to really go after michael cohen when he's on the stand, they'll get their chance to cross-examine him and they will continue to try to reinforce this idea that michael cohen is unreliable. he's a convicted liar continue to really try to knock down any sort of credibility that he might have with the jury. now, the prosecution had on the other hand, if have used other witnesses and documents like emails and text messages to sort of try to lay the groundwork in the lead up to michael cohen's testimony, they've tried to provide a supporting evidence around what michael cohen is expected to talk about related to donald trump and hopefully are going to have to convince the jury to separate great michael cohen's pass from what he says on the stand starting tomorrow. >> all right. that cohen. thank you so much for joy to me right now to talk more about this trial. is harry litman. he is a former us attorney and a former deputy assistant attorney general. gracie, you likewise, happy mother's day, fred. thank
11:04 am
you so much. all right. well, just like zack was saying, i mean, the credibility of michael cohen will be on attack right away. so how important will it be for the prosecution since its first inviting? it's witness to just lay it all out. what the history of michael cohen is has been perjury, doing time, et cetera, and his behavior you know, what? elle he was working for donald trump they will do that in the parlance. it's called taking the sting out and really fredricka, they've been doing it the entire trial. it's been very interesting through prosecution witnesses, not just the fence cross-examination. we've we've heard cohen pretty well trashed and i think it serves to lower expectations a bit. let the jury know that he's got baggage and hopefully have something of an open-mind to his account, which has been consistent over the last couple years, and somebody can have skeletons in their closet and
11:05 am
still be credible. it happens every day in the manhattan criminal courts so the allegations of the fraudulent business records, i mean, that is what this case is all about. >> all of the other stuff in terms of the relationship, the hush money, those are the building blocks, right. because the prosecution knows it has to prove the fraudulent business records is that where michael cohen is going to be key or do you believe there's some there are some other surprise witnesses who are going to establish that after michael cohen's testimony no, i don't think so. there could be i can think of who it might be, but i think cohen is going to carry this water. and in particular a witness, we will not see is allen weisselberg, who could confirm is zach was just saying, miss important february 2017 meeting but the prosecution has to play with the cards they're dealt and we've already seen their shying away from people who continue to be loyal to trump.
11:06 am
cohen is essentially the one infidel who tells the whole story, but a key part of their case to date has been corroborating him in advance almost all the way, but not all the way. there will be if you key details, he has to carry on his own. >> what kind of details do you believe are missing right now to keep the jurors engage amicus sometimes talking about business records can be very mundane and boring in terms of documentation. so how do you keep the jurors engaged if they're not right now, how do you grow up? welcome back. it's a good question, although i've been in court for the whole time, they are engaged even at the business records stuff. >> but even if they lag, there will definitely perk up, come tomorrow when the prosecution says that people call michael cohen, and then of course we'll be moving pretty quickly into the final i'll act and closing arguments and all indications are from how they've been to date, that they are paying
11:07 am
close attention. >> do you think this is gonna get wrapped up this week? and closing arguments perhaps, you know, finalize the week or maybe jurors would have to think about the testimony and then it with the start of a new week that's when closing things might come you know, the de has said they might finish this week, but next week becomes tricky because there's no court on friday. >> and if you do the math that they're not going to want to give the jury the case, the thursday before memorial day and then there'll be five days. so if i had to guess, it'll be wrapped up thursday or monday. no court friday this week, either. the defense i think we'll have a short case including know testimony from donald trump, but then you want closing arguments before the jury gets the case. i think the judge may decide to take a breath and do it all starting the 2s stay after labor de even though the evidence will be essentially all in as of next
11:08 am
monday or tuesday. >> all right. and you're back in court, you gotta seat back in court tomorrow again. >> tomorrow. yeah. i can't day. >> it is a big day. okay. we'll check back with you. harry litman. >> thanks so much. >> all right. and new today, growing fears in the middle east, israel launching fresh attacks against gaza as the us now, warren's a ground invasion of rafah could result insignificant civilian casualties. israel defense forces launching a blistering campaign against hamas overnight targeting northern and central gaza, as well as rafah in an effort to prevent militants from regrouping the hamas-controlled ministry of health says more than 35,000 palestinians have been killed since the war began while the un says at least 300,000 have evacuated rafah ahead of israel's ground operations all of this just days after president biden warned israel against a rafah invasion, promising to pause certain weapons transfers if the idf
11:09 am
pushes forward. today, top white house officials explained why they believe going into rafah could have disastrous consequences. >> going into two rafah, even to deal with these remaining battalions especially in the absence of a plan for civilians, risks doing terrible harm to civilians and not solving the problem. a problem that both of us want us all, which is making sure hamas cannot, again govern gaza the president's decision is already causing quite the dividing congress, even within his own party president biden is learning the mistakes of us military campaigns in iraq and afghanistan. what we learned in both of those efforts was that you cannot defeat a terrorist let's do the allergy you're not cannot defeat a terrorist movement with military force alone i think president biden has taken forceful action. >> so much. so there's been a lot of blowback for his recent public statement and i'll remind you, other american
11:10 am
presidents have done the same thing. when are close trusted partner? isn't listening to private admonitions cnn's paula hancocks is monitoring the latest from abu dhabi. >> a. paula obviously, there are big concerns in rafah. what is the latest on the ground there? >> well fread we know from the un and also from the israeli military that they believe about 300,000 have been fleeing that particular area. they're going west and some of going north as well. now the area they're going to al-mawasi, which is where the the israeli military says there is a humanitarian situation set up. we have heard from humanitarian aid groups that it's inhumane the conditions there are not suitable for significant amounts of more people to be trying to get to that area. but some are unable to leave the rafah. we know that the sec the wounded, and some quite frankly
11:11 am
exhausted having moved so many times before, are unable to make that journey. now, what we're also hearing on the grinder, some real concerns about the land crossings on the southern border. of course, rafah, the israeli military it's taken over that, that crossing and it has been closed. we know that egypt is not willing. they're saying officials at this point to negotiate and coordinate with israel to try and get the trucks into gaza. and they are citing security concerns because of course it's not just trying to get the trucks in its then trying to be safe enough. to distribute that aid and kerem shalom also along the southern area that has barely been opened, although the israeli military says some aid has managed to get through, we're hearing from un teams that you and teams on the ground could run out of of aid to give out by sunday say that is today, they think that some of the four bakeries that are
11:12 am
barely functioning at this point, we'll run out of stock by tomorrow on monday. so a significant humanitarian crisis on top of the crisis that's already there, friend. >> okay. >> polo, we're also hearing about is really operations beyond rafah. so what are we learning about that yes. >> so there's two areas at this point that we understand the israeli military is working in zeitoun in central gaza. also jabalya. this is the refugee camp in the northern parts of gaza. it's an area that the israeli military in the past tad believed they had cleared of hamas militants, hamas operatives but we're now hearing that they have intelligence that sum, as they say, hamas terrorists are moving north, they are trying to regroup. they are trying to re-establish themselves in that area and the military says that it is trying to prevent that. so they've actually given evacuation orders to areas of
11:13 am
jabalya as well. so you do see some people trying to move out of that area and it really points to the issue that we're hearing as well from some binded administration officials that this sunday that there are concerns that hamas cannot be defeated that we heard secretary of state antony blinken, for example, tell cbs that even if they do manage to destroy some more of the hamas infrastructure, they could be facing a hamas insurgency or if they leave refer for example there could be a vacuum of chaos which hamas would good, then fill friend. >> all right. paula hancocks. thank you so much all right. >> coming up a manhunt is underway for a suspect who allegedly ambushed, shot, and killed an ohio police officer plus 35 million people are under a severe weather threat today, the cities at risk for large hail today, those flooding, all next moscow,

11:27 am
president biden hone his attacks on trump at these closed-door fundraisers, really sharpening his criticism in yesterday at this fundraiser in seattle, even going after the former president's mental state, he said that when he lost speaking about trump when he lost in 2020, something snapped in him? >> president biden wanted to say, he's not only obsessed with losing in 2020, he's clearly unhinged. so you hear the president really starting a sharpen his criticism of president trump. of course, he was on this three-day fundraising swing on the west coast. really look king to maintain that cash advantage that it holds over his republican rival. these fundraisers on the west coast brought in $10 and really that has been one of the unquestionable bright spots for the biden campaign is their cash advantage at the end of march, which is the last time we had filing records for these candidates. president biden had almost twice as much cash on
11:28 am
hand as former president trump. and you really do see the biden campaign putting that to good use. they recently announced a $14 television ad by targeting black voters and latinos and battleground states. you also see them opening up offices in battleground states really starting to staff up. now president trump is trying to close that gap and you have seen him a hold a number of fundraisers over the last several weeks that brought in tens of millions of dollars. former president trump's advisors are telling their donors that they brought in $76 million in april. we don't have figures for president biden yet, but we are learning today about a new effort that biden's campaign is taking to maintain that cash advantage in june, he will attend a fundraiser in los angeles. >> it will be headlined by george clooney, julia roberts and former president obama's are really bringing out the star wattage as this campaign continues, fredricka. all right, kevin lip deck.
11:29 am
>> thank you so much. >> all right. >> i want to bring in now republican strategist, just cnn political commentator. sure. michael singleton, good to see you good to see you. all right, so while president biden has been campaigning fundraising now taking some direct digs at the former president donald trump. well, he's been spending multiple days a week. >> the new york court courtroom, but donald trump is also on television every single day. do you think he is using this opportunity by being on everyone's broadcast every day, daily throughout the day to his advantage i mean, for it, talk about it in packable opportunity here, free earned media. i think the former president needs to have her do a better job of utilizing these opportunities to his to his advantage. oftentimes you hear them complain about our coal to cortes. he talks about how terrible the judge, as he talks about how it's a sham trial. >> we all know those things, but i think the direct message to the american people should be if i were advising a former
11:30 am
president, fred is to talk about the economy fareed zakaria had an opinion piece that came out friday on cnn, and he talked about how on the question of whom voters trust the most on the economy, it was donald trump by 22 points of 15 point bump from 2020. >> so they're seriously something happening here with the average hard american that believes that trump is a better alternative to handle things that are impacting them more so than president biden. >> and i wonder how you gauging whether any of the testimony in trump's trial has an any way influenced voters who are on the fence about whether to lean toward trump or biden i think people have probably heard some of them more salacious allegations were testimony, but i'm not convinced that this point that people are swayed one way or the other. >> i'm not convinced that people are surprised to be quite honest with you when you talk to average voters about
11:31 am
these things. and i've done a number of focus groups and some of these topics have come up and people said, well, you know, i'm not surprised donald trump is donald trump. i like them or i don't like him so i'm not convinced that we will see a statue numerical impact on this in terms of november, we're voters who like trump all of a sudden going to see what now i'm switching to biden and those who like or may not like biden's office. and i'm going to switch to trump. i think people are aware they are for it for the most part, the question for me as a strategist, looking at some of those battleground states, what what number? but what member rather can increase their turnout for voters who are absolutely in their corner. and what individual is going to struggle with trying to maintain increase. and i think right now we're seeing that president biden probably as a bit disadvantage to that question. >> okay. let's talk possible trump running mates north dakota governor doug burgum is a rumor to be on trump's vp shortlist and listen to what trump said about burgum last night you won't find anybody
11:32 am
better than this gentleman in terms of his knowledge of their he made his money in technology, but he probably knows more about energy than anybody i know so get ready for something, okay. >> just get ready. but doug burgum has been incredible do you think governor burger would be a smart vp pick for trump? >> is this something that trump says, look, we've got something coming that's an interesting choice to me. >> i mean, i respect to governor burgum. >> he's an incredible business manner. i think the guy has a billion-dollar company, so clearly, he knows how to lead and lead potentially well. >> but when i think about what i would probably look for in a vice presidential running mate in this moment where this is going to be a close race. >> i'm not really looking for a doug burgum. i'm looking for someone like maybe brian sandoval, the former governor of nevada. he's hispanic, latino communities now the largest minority group in the country. they are going to have an outsized impact potentially
11:33 am
on the race in november. so i'm looking for drinker for someone to sort of be disruptive, but in a positive sense, someone who's going to excite voters who are supporting trump, but also those were on a fitts who are looking for something to encourage them the turnout in november. >> i'm just not sure that doug burgum is that person. okay. we shall see if that's the sum thing soon to be announced. all right. sure. michael's singleton. thanks so much. >> good to see you for it. thank you. >> thank you. >> all right. so technology erasing human creativity, did you see this? >> how apple's latest ipad pro ad is stoking fears about artificial intelligence russia for trying to spy on us. >> we were spying on them i'm sorry frank this is a war. >> but secret war. secrets and spies, a nuclear game premier sunday, june 2, that ten on c.

11:40 am
too much who were already reticent about the whole ai thing yeah, i think that this was probably an honest mistake. >> i think the message they were trying to convey was that if you're a creator, all of the tools you need are contained in this nice little flat device that we can sell to you. but it came across as we've crushed your, your hopes and dreams by creating this technology that can replace you and i don't think that's what they into unsure that's not what they intended. but i can see why people might have interpreted that way. and it's very important for these tech companies to understand that there there's a lot of reticence right now and they have to be careful when you think for a company as big as apple that maybe they had in their committee of people someone in the room before this actually went public, someone who may have felt a little uneasy about, or maybe even a musician in the bunch. i mean

i'm kind of surprised this got them as far yeah. >> i mean, it's very possible. the interesting thing is the first job i had out of college was working at an advertising agency interestingly enough, fredricka and we always would have somebody a customer user, or something look it so that the creative department could, could get some feedback. it's very possible that they were under some kind of time pressure, who knows, but somebody nobody stepped up and said, wait, wait a minute. and this probably isn't the right message. >> so i wonder if anything does this serve as an example, maybe a learning tool for a lot of companies? as who want to get on board and embrace artificial intelligence. yet at the same time have to allay the fears of people who feel like they're being replaced. >> i mean what our company is going to do as they try to strike some balance, they want to go forward, be modern, but
11:42 am
at the same time they don't want people we'll feel like they're replaceable yeah. fredricka, i think you've hit the nail exactly on the head, which is these companies are very excited about what they built and how the technology is going to push everything progress forward and make our lives easier and better. but they have to actually at the same time, understand the reticence and the fear that some of these tools put in people's minds. and they have to be much more aware of that, both in terms of how they build the products and how the products work. having these models have biases that people don't like and so forth. all of that chips away at the trust and they yeah. right now having trust in these tools is what's going to maximize the uptake that they get with consumers and with businesses. >> just last week, the president made a rather big commitment, right to ai while
11:43 am
visiting and wisconsin, wisconsin, rather, china's so far ahead of the us in regards to ai, the use of the technology to support it, et cetera. so how significant in your view is it for this white house the two i guess extension all of branch, if you will, to the companies doing business with ai or promoting ai. how important is that in the messaging? >> yeah, i think there's really kind of two things at the same time here the announcement last week was more of a political announcement. if you recall that particular site was a site that the previous president had had a gathering when a company he called foxconn was going to build a facility there to make, i believe led panels and then that really didn't pan out. and so now microsoft is taking
11:44 am
that location. >> it's the specifics are importance of microsoft building a data center is not very high. >> they already have close to 200 datacenters in the but the political point that was made, especially in a swing states like wisconsin. i think had some gravitas. now, the other point you're making how should the government be embracing? ai yeah it's a fine line. they have to both embrace it, but also be ready and willing to make sure that these companies are being responsible that they are building these tools in a way that are not going to harm, but are going to be for good and that's, that there's a lot of work to do to make that a reality. >> all right, phil siegel, great to see you. thanks so much thanks. >> fredricka. >> we'll be right back. i have a good day.
