>> fees, no contracts and >> hello barbara >> sorry, i was muted >> that's amazing. >> i know rights >> barbara >> not manu raju on capitol hill and this is cnn back on the >> trail. donald trump is taking his campaign talents to, to swing states. as president biden says, his sights on a state of democrats haven't one in years it was gaza's largest and most advanced hospital with emergency intensive care, pediatric, and other departments. and now it has been reduced to rubble. the world health organization is hoping to send a team to the al-shifa hospital to see if
11:02 am
anything can be done to help and this is the last two survivors of the tulsa race massacre. say they have one chance to get back the opportunities that were stolen from them. today, the women both 109 years old, go before the oklahoma supreme court. any final fight for reparations? we're following these major developing stories and many more all coming in, right here to cnn news central >> fresh off some appearances in court. donald trump is back on the campaign trail today for the first time in weeks is going to be speaking in a crucial swing state of michigan and just a few minutes and then later today he's on to wisconsin two key swing states that he won in 2016 and lost in 2020 as part of president biden's so-called blue wall, he plans to hammer biden on his border policies today.
11:03 am
>> but >> if he strays from that topic and starts complaining about his legal cases he'll have to tread carefully. there's an expanded gag order on him now, the result of his online tirade targeting the judge overseeing his manhattan criminal case and the judge's daughter cnn's alayna treene, his life for us in grand rapids, michigan where trump is set to speak shortly. alaimo, what should we expect from his remarks? >> right? well, you mentioned a couple of important things. boris, one is that this is really donald trump kicking off his general election campaign in earnest. we haven't seen much of him since his super tuesday when a couple of weeks ago while at the same time, we saw really an uptick of political activity from president joe biden. he also recently visited michigan and wisconsin and we know that donald trump is very eager to try and have him when these states in november after losing them to biden in 2020. but one thing will also be watching for is what he will say if he will
11:04 am
say anything at all really about that expanded gag order. we know that he's really towed to the line today when attacking the judge over the latest issuance of this gag order where he cannot go after the judge's family or family members of the court, as well as family of the manhattan district attorney. it's also comes a day after donald trump posted the 100 and 75, $175,000,000 bond in his new york civil fraud trial. that deadline was on thursday, so we're really seeing that mix of the campaign trail and his legal issues play out. this week. but as or what we should expect from the former president and his messaging today, it's only going to be two main topics. i'm talking hold from his campaign that hope be focusing on in both topics that helped him succeed in both michigan and wisconsin back in 2016. and those center on immigration and the border, even though both michigan and wisconsin are more than 1,000 miles away from the us-mexico
11:05 am
border. a lot of republicans in these states do care about the issue. another big part of this though, is going to be talking about a violent crimes committed by undocumented immigrants in this state, as well as in wisconsin. it as part of that, the former president actually invited the family of a woman named ruby garcia. she was recently killed in michigan by an undocumented immigrant that police say it was as part of a domestic dispute, and we've seen this kind of playbook with donald trump before. he tries to pull on these different stories recently he did that with laken riley, another woman who was killed by a suspected undocumented immigrant to try and prove his point that biden is not handling of the southern border correctly. so a lot of big themes that we'll be watching out for today as well as some of that inflammatory rhetoric that we've seen donald trump used in the past part of his remarks here in michigan are going to focus on what the campaign is calling biden's border bloodbath, referencing that controversial term that the former president used a
11:06 am
couple of weeks ago when talking about the auto industry as well as the country tree if biden were to win in november. so again, we'll be tracking whether he continues that inflammatory rhetoric today >> alayna treene, life force in grand rapids, we know you'll keep an eye on that for us, briana turning now to florida, a onetime battleground state that some democrats now think is back in play partly because of how the reversal of roe v he wade has shaped and reshaped the political landscape this week, the florida supreme court handed down to rulings. one, let's the state's law banning abortion at six weeks go into effect next month. the other will allow voters to weigh in directly on the issue this fall by voting on a constitutional amendment that would protect abortion access let's get you to florida with cnn's carlos suarez. carlos, what's in this ballot measure for starters you have rionda so that ballot amendment could and that's a big question. it could expand access to reproductive care come november. it's going to
11:07 am
need more than a majority of the support. we're talking about 60% of voters would need to approve it >> right >> now, or abortion providers tell me that their focus is on this six-week ban which takes effect in 30 days. planned parenthood of south florida told us that they are making more appointments available to women and that they're working with out-of-state providers once this band kicks in florida, is about to join several other states across the south that severely restrict, if not ban, abortions about 84,000 women. and last year received a reproductive services in florida with a number of women coming to florida from states with some of these restrictions. now, the secretary of health and human services this is javier becerra. he was in south florida for an event on reproductive health care and he talked to about this ruling and context of dobbs as well as ivf care in alabama and medication abortion services. he said in part, quote, no woman in
11:08 am
america should live and medical apartheid now, it has become clear that roe versus wade was more than just about abortion. it should now be clear that dobbs was more than just abortion as for this ballot amendment, the florida supreme court approved the wording of this constitutional a ballot amendment that would protect the right to an abortion florida. now this ballot, again would prohibit any type of restriction when it comes to abortion at the point before viability, which is around the 24 to 28 weeks of pregnancy. but again, it briana, 60% of voters in florida would have to sign off on this ballot amendment in order for it to approve to be approved rather. so you can expect that both of these rulings, no doubt will play out politically, come november, considering that democrats they expect to campaign on this issue in hopes of putting florida in play. here in a moment, we're going to be speaking to the democratic minority leader in
11:09 am
florida state house. but what a republicans saying about this upcoming ballot? fight >> well, we've already heard from some of republican officials here in florida that tried essentially to apply to the court's decision in saying that the state constitutions, rights of privacy doesn't include the right to an abortion, but when it comes to this ballot amendment, some officials have said they are going to camp pain against this. one of the top officials here, the state speaker of the house, said they plan to turn out an effort against this ballot amendment. so it puts republicans in a bit of a tough spot going into november, considering some of the polling on this issue, when it comes to support for some of these reproductive rates all right. >> carlos suarez, thank you for that report or let's discuss further with a state lawmaker democrat ventures driscoll joins us now. she's the minority leader in the florida house of representatives. a liter driscoll. thank you so much for being with us first, i want to get your immediate reaction to the state supreme court triggering this ban on
11:10 am
abortions after six weeks what do you think it means for women in florida >> well, women in florida are like me. we're now living in a time where we may have had fewer rights than our mothers had when they were of childbearing age. and a six-week ban is as close as you can get to an outright ban. most of them in one i know that they're pregnant at six weeks. and so florida republicans took this too far. the good news is that the people are paying attention and that most americans and most floridians believe in safe access to legal abortions. and so we do have that on our side as we head to the ballot box in november representative, i just want to commend you for keeping your focus. is that train horn was sounding in the background. i hope that was a train that was quite loud. i appreciate your focus. i do want to ask you about remember i want to ask you about amendment four, so that the state supreme court made, this decision allowing
11:11 am
the band move forward, but they also approved the wording of this proposed constitutional amendment that will appear on november's ballot. and if voters approve it, it would enshrine abortion rights in the state constitution. you do need the support of at least 60% of voters in the sunshine state for it to pass how confident are you that that'll happen >> i'm very confident that we can do it. and i think everyone needs to remember to take a deep breath because we've done this before. in 2018, we also had an initiative. it was amendment four. >> it >> was to restore voting rights to returning citizens who were formerly convicted felons and that is a measure that passed easily with over 60%. in fact, it got more votes in favor of it than anybody else did on the ballot. more even than ron desantis or any other candidates. i think that we have to remember that floridians know how to do this. floridians value, there freedom, and they will show up
11:12 am
at the ballot this november to protect that >> there is some debate about the language and amendment four, and i want to put that back on the screen because there's a key portion. it says quote, no law shall prohibit penalize, delay or restrict abortion before viability or when necessary to protect the patient's health that that question of viability. there are a lot of different ways that that could be interpreted. polls show that that's where the core of the abortion debate is, right? i'm wondering if you wish the language of amendment for was more precise, perhaps specifically laying out a timetable well, i think we have to remember that the core issue actually is whether or not there should be government interference in >> these immensely personal decisions of heart and home. these are personal medical decisions. so freedom is an american value. it's true, but floridians in particular, value, there freedom we actually have a right to privacy that is enshrined in our constitution, our state
11:13 am
constitution. now we know what the florida supreme court just didn't kind of brush that aside and i think put maybe their personal opinions ahead of actually what the law would command them to do. but floridians value freedom. and so that's really the question for voters. do we think that politician should be looking? for the shoulders of women while they are in the exam room? or do we think that these immensely personal decision should be left between women, their family, and their doctors. and i think most floridians would agree with me. it's the latter. we need to keep government out. we lead to leave this to science. we need to leave this to women and we need to leave this to the professionals who are the doctors? >> polling shows that a large majority, at least according to the university of north florida, would support passing amendment for the white house now thinks that having this on the ballot makes this sunshine state winnable for them? >> yet, you did >> allude to governor desantis in the last election in the midterms, he led the effort on these abortion restrictions. any won reelection by nearly 20 percentage points. that was
11:14 am
about a year-and-a-half ago. do you agree with the white house that florida is winnable for democrats? >> oh florida is absolutely winnable for democrats. i often say that we're not a red state. we are red performing state. we are maga captured state, but we're not a red state. so there's something that's happened though, since the 2022 election, which is that florida is facing one of the worst affordability crises in the country. we have the highest property insurance rates in the country and this is after the republicans gave a $3,000,000,000 bailout to the insurance industry, but provided no relief for homeowners. so people are mad and they're feeling it in a way that they weren't in 2022, florida is simply becoming too expensive for many floridians so when you take that issue and couple it with the issue of abortion, which may have been intimated on the ballot in 2022, but it wasn't their expressly. now we actually have a window. now there's actually some daylight, i think where we can, as democrats and people
11:15 am
really who care about this issue, you don't have to be a democrat to care about this issue. i should be buffalo's, i talk about that. people who care about these personal freedoms can make their voices heard at the ballot. and i think that is what's going to make the difference in 2024 >> florida house minority leader for interests driscoll. we appreciate you joining us today. look forward to having you back as this issue plays out. >> thank you. of course >> i have this hour on cnn news central why some israelis are choosing jail over serving in the country's military and more than 75 mlion arica are under a seve srmhreat strong tornadoes could hit this afternoon. we're tracking a massive weather africahong they're going to be alled back on their journey through six countries so far. those stores and more next let me check. >> we hear nothing. >> a space shuttle accidents, usually not one thing. it's a series of a is that part of the wing coming apart?

11:21 am
us to hang some sort of condition over their neck and what i'm telling you is that we continue to work with the israelis to make sure that they are as precise as cape as they can be. and that more aid is getting in and we're going to continue to to take that approach >> this latest attack occurred after a two-week israeli siege on gaza's al-shifa hospital, the director of that hospital saying it is now permanently out of service with us now, as the co-founder of gaza medic voices dr. tanya haj-hassan. she's also a pediatric intensive care doctor after with doctors without borders and tanya, just to put this into perspective, i'll shifa had 750 beds. there were 26 operating rooms. they serve 250,000 people annually according to the hospital director, can you tell us any specifics? that you know about the condition of the hospital after the siege and what this is going to mean to the people of gaza >> yeah, thank you
11:22 am
>> i don't know far beyond what i think everybody accessing media and social media, know at this moment, because communications are so difficult in the north, because international journalists were long essentially removed from the majority of the gaza strip as part of a strategy and these are all atrocities that are committing, being committed in the dark that local journalists have been targeted the same way health care workers have been targeted. so unfortunately, what is coming out of al-shifa hospital at the moment is apocalyptic photos and videos of evidence to tuition that i visited that i loved that was really a source of pride for gazans. it was a very well-functioning large quaternary hospital that provided the majority of subspecialty services for the gaza strip and the gaza's largest trauma center as well.
11:23 am
it's also over 70 years old. was built during the british mandate. and it translates al shifa means healing or to heal. so it's the house of healing and it was exactly that one of my colleagues described it as the beating heart of gaza's health care system. and to see it, now in ruins. burned bombs and that's just the infrastructure, the photos and footage and testimonies coming out of people cuffed and their hands and legs bound. people dismembered role rolled over by bulldozers and all that atrocities committed in the hospital including point-blank executions of tens of people, if not more, i've seen numbers as high as 300 people in the hospital is it's apocalyptic. i keep trying to wake myself up from this nightmare because we
11:24 am
have been screaming and when i say we it's myself, it's all the humanitarian humanitarians that have been going in and out of the gaza strip organizations speaking on behalf of their entire organization, organizations with decades of experience in humanitarian medicine in war zone, we have all been shouting since week one, this is beyond anything we've seen elsewhere. and now we have the icj ruling >> you were just there. i do want to note cnn and we're doing our best to report out of gaza. but obviously it is very difficult. as you mentioned there or not many journalist, they're very restricted in the north. so we're hearing very different accounts from the two sides. obviously of what happened. and we are doing our best to try to confirm some information so that we can get a very clear picture. but can you just put into perspective for us the pictures are it's so horrible. obviously, this is
11:25 am
not a functioning hospital. we can see why it's permanently out of service. what do people do, dr. if they need medical treatment, where are they going to go? >> so i was in gaza. i returned about one week ago. i was there with a different charity called medical aid for palestinians. we were based in dated but it's similar area where the the world's kitchen, massacre happens with the aid workers. you mentioned prior to me coming on the program when they were killed by israeli bombardment that that was the area that i was in. it's also the hospital whose courtyard was bombed two days ago. it was a right next to the tenths where the journalists sit. it's where a few more more tense with internally displaced people were. this is not a military base. i was there for two weeks. it is a small hospital that is trying to function to take the place of these larger hospitals, the two largest hospitals in gaza and shifa and and lawsuit medical
11:26 am
complex, both of whom van me ben besieged, bombed, and essentially plea put out of service. so a smaller hospital like an oxide, is trying to compensate and it can't because even if it gaza's entire health care system was functioning right now, every single hospital, it could not cope with the mass casualties that are coming in as a consequence of what seems on the ground as a health care provider working in an emergency department, i can tell you what the people coming into the emergency department where civilians they were families, children, elderly, women entire families coming in sometimes a single member of the family coming in looking desperately for the rest of the family that was in his home and hour ago when his home was bombed and later finding out that they were all taken, half of the families still trapped under the rubble, the rest were taken directly to the morgue because they were dead on arrival. and then maybe one child that's still alive and being resuscitated, but badly means this was a very common theme, unfortunately, and i can tell you a story after story,
11:27 am
buit's hard to recount these individual stories. i'll be totally honest with you. it's, it's hard to recount these individual stories without kingown in tears because every single one of them is a tragedy. it's easier to talk about this in terms of numbers and bigger concepts. but when you come down to it, these are individual families. i mean, imagined for one seconds and god forbid, you would never be playing this situation. but imagined for one second, if you are the only surviving member of your family and you saw your knee, don't have children, maybe have children, but you saw children and you or your family or your extended family dead means or dying and in pain while they're dying for no reason, for no crime the evidence on the ground for those of us who have been in gaza, is that this is a war on civilians. it's indiscriminate it's targeting civilians in multiple ways, including starvation, including direct bombardment, including point
11:28 am
black executions. we've had testimony after testimony. we've seen video footage of it and i don't know how what atrocity we have to reach before global powers step in and say enough violence this is not something that humanitarians can fix. this is an elimination of human life. there's no doctor of that can reverse that process. >> yeah, we're and we've seen the scale of it. it is it's appalling and we've covered the individual stories as you said, it's not just numbers it is individual stories. and you don't need to have children to look at what we're seeing in these pictures and just be speechless as you hear these stories and see these faces. >> dr. haj-hassan, >> unfortunately, we have to leave it there. thank you. so much for being with us >> thank you >> boris >> across israel protesters are growing louder. those frustrated by the war are now grappling with how to make their voices heard. cnn's
11:29 am
melissa bell has more in israel two, there are those who object to their government's handling of the war in gaza >> among them, ben, a >> rod, who has an 18-year-old is due to enlist this week for his mandatory military service >> instead, >> he tells the crowd he's choosing to go to jail we caught up with him and tel aviv on his very last day of freedom. >> i don't refuse because i'm afraid of being hurt or killed in military action. i have a very, very deep discussed of the things that i'm seeing happening >> things he says that israeli media doesn't dwell on for that he seeks out on international networks and online i think something that really broke my heart was the flour massacre so seeing people
11:30 am
trample each other too get to get food i mean you just can't deny at that point that there is a famine going on and people are hungry >> so on monday, then we'll hand himself in becoming one of earlier handful of so-called refuseniks to make their decisions public since the war began in a country where military service marks the start of every israelis grown life aside from those exempt on religious grounds the war has made avoiding it a political act and then called the trader i've been told that i need to be deported or i've been asked why i don't just move >> i mean, >> but it's not not such terrible stuff. i haven't gotten that yet. like i'll get that when i go to jail >> yet. ben says he's determined to give up his freedom in order to remain free of award that he simply
11:31 am
doesn't believe in now. >> it's vital to overstate what a remarkable decision it is for an israeli 18-year-old to decide not to serve, given the place that military service this has in this country, but especially at this time, i think listening to the testimonies that you were just hearing their real numbers, so you just heard from that dr. remember that international networks like cnn can't get into gaza, but do what they can to try and show what's happening to pilip palestinian civilians that he's had to seek out that information to make his decision, i think is interesting in itself, one media analyst pointing out that here in israel the drums of war have been beating so loudly that it's been hard for his red, the israeli public to get access through it its own media, too much of what's happening two palestinian civilians, so remarkable story to remarkable time and bear in mind that we are now in the third day of four days of protest against this work here in jerusalem, parson briana >> yeah, a really fascinating

11:38 am
forward, but understandably, he's in this very difficult position of trying to thread the needle in a way in which he brings ukraine aid to the floor of the house, but he doesn't trigger this effort to remove him from office. and that is proving to be very difficult and conversations i've had over the course of the last two days. it's become clear that johnson has not decided brianna on what the best strategy is at this current moment, we've heard him floating a couple of ideas, perhaps using this as a way to give a loan to ukraine that they could pay back another option that he has floated is doing some kind of lend-lease program. he's floating a lot of ideas right now to see an understanding what might be able to get the kind of traction where he can actually put this on the floor. meanwhile, democrats are giving him room to maneuver, making sure that he does have some semblance of options because they want to see ukraine aid. this has been a big priority for the white house. the senate has already passed their bill,

11:46 am
considering this case cnn's omar jimenez is following this story for us. omar tell us more about what's at stake here. >> yeah, i mean, look, these are the final survivors of the 1921 tulsa race massacre at this point. and they've been locked in what is now a year's long court battle to essentially seek reparations. now, as you mentioned, a lower court initially dismissed. well, they initially allowed it to go forward and then they grant entered a motion to dismiss later on. so then it was dismissed. then they appeal to the oklahoma supreme court. that appeal was essentially granted to provide this opportunity for oral arguments. and that's what we are hearing today. that hearing is underway. these survivors are making their case, which i just want to point out for context here. the supreme court is not deciding whether they get reparations or not. they are deciding whether these survivors essentially have the right to go to trial. because even if the state supreme court grants them insides with them here, it only just goes back down to the lower district
11:47 am
court and then they proceed toward that trial process. so that gives you an idea of how much longer and how much more convoluted in some senses, this process could be and to state the obvious, these survivors or 109 years old at time, is really of the essence for them. if they plan to be here to see any form of resolution in this case, and i asked one of these survivors because i sat down with one of them 109 year-old viola ford fletcher, about why she keeps showing back up to court because she's had to come in time and time again over the past years, even on her birthday, last year, she was sitting in court as part of these as part of these case proceedings, take a listen to some of what she told me we should get justice to be fair. i think the courts should feel the same way >> and that is as simple as it gets there. now, i do want to say that the city of tulsa, among others, which has been on

the other side of this, has argued that simple we being connected to a historical event doesn't give someone unlimited rights to seek compensation related to that event. and that is likely what we're going to hear a little bit from them as the supreme court hearing continues. and as we're continuing to monitor it. >> all right. we'll look to see what develops their omar. thank you for that report. >> still ahead. shares of trump media take a beating on wall street as the former president loses a billion on paper anyway, in a single day will the trend continue? plus a warning ahead of the total solar eclipse? doctors are urging you to watch it safely. listen up here, get that proper for eyewear. so what works and what doesn't we're going to tell you next >> this is the big dam
