4:02 am
invite it also, a cnn exclusive of violent video appears to show music mogul's sean diddy combs brutally attacking his then girlfriend. and the los angeles hotel hallway. we talked to what? legal expert about what this new video means for holmes's other ongoing legal issues. >> russian forces are accused of using civilians as human shields, as at least ten thousand people are forced to leave park gibbs so far, the latest on the battle for this region that's coming up a private fundraiser and a college commencement speech await president biden in atlanta this weekend, the president is bolstering efforts in the peach state in an attempt to woo black voters who played a key role in it as 2021. >> but his plan to speak at morehouse on sunday is drawing criticism from some on campus now, students on campuses nationwide like these at the university of pennsylvania last night or protesting the president's continued support of israel's military campaign in gaza.
4:03 am
>> i spoke with morehouse college president hey, dr. david thomas this week he says he is ready for silent protest and more houses. no stranger to facing tensions like these head on however, dr. thomas says that he will not call on police to lead anyone off campus in zip ties in said he said that he's prepared to shut down commencement entirely if the protests escalate, cnn's camila chalice joins us now from the white house. so under six months now, you're than six months from election day. but we know that the voting actually starts much earlier than that how important is this visit for the president president biden's visit to atlanta is very important, victor, because he's really trying to ramp up his efforts to court black voters. >> and georgia. and in other states as recent polls show that support among this demographic is dwindling for support for biden. now, victor amara, as you both mentioned, biden is going to begin giving a commencement speech at
4:04 am
morehouse college, and that has drawn a bit of tension on the college campus some students i spoke to for cnn say that they are really critical of biden coming to the campus because given that his administration' s support for israel during the hamas, hamas and israel conflict. while others say that they are open to hearing what he has to say. but campaign advisers told cnn that biden is going to be giving an uplifting message when he gives his commencement speech. and it's really going to be focusing on delivering a speech that talks about overcoming adversity and stresses the importance of giving back to the community camilo, what is biden's campaign trying to highlight with this visit? well, amara biting is really trying to remind voters during his visit to atlanta just what he's done, what he's been in office, and also draw a stark contrast between himself and his former and former president donald trump. now, during this visit, he also really wants, does this highlight? the voters in this state? talk about the economic
4:05 am
policies that he's implemented. and really, because the most important thing during this visit, he's really wants to connect with voters and part of his strategy during this visit. and just in the months ahead is to re-energize his support base among black voters because it's really important in this conversation that block voters really helped and played a really big role and getting them elected in 2020. and he's hoping to draw the mountain huge numbers and this upcoming election, especially as late son latest polls show biden trailing are losing ground to trump. thanks so much camila dish, think, appreciate that. well, there are growing concerns about pro-palestinian protests interrupting this, sarah i'm one and biden's speech at morehouse college tomorrow. >> cnn's nick valencia spoke with students who say they do not want that to happen when you talked to a lawn gibson about his upcoming college graduation, you can see he's excited covid canceled his high school commencement in 2020. >> so this one is extra special. >> i think most sore like me
4:06 am
that are a little bit enthusiastic, but most just want to peaceful graduation with felt protests for the 21 year-old morehouse senior, getting president joe biden as the commencement speaker, is in his words, pretty cool, even if he does see why some of his peers think the choice was controversial, i personally don't agree with some of the things that the white house has done. >> but you're still want him to come here. >> we'll do want to become because i agree with his his full body of work. >> that's been mixed reactions, some for some against morehouse student newspaper managing editor colin royal says mostly the invitation created confusion on campus. >> the fact that we weren't really in the loop for that was kinda concerning especially we have somebody of that magnitude and somebody that's been involved in a lot of thing is that students have protested against who would you guys much rather have is a commencement speaker i am inclined to say andriy, 3,000. they joke, but mark reagan's and know what collier had been on the front lines as two the most vocal critics at morehouse to biden's invitation, i exist as
4:07 am
more than a prop for a photo-op draped in cafe is the pro-palestinian activists tell us about what they call us imperialism, which they say biden has amplified by his arm support the war in gaza while at the same time overlooking their concerns as black man, he completely dismiss us by calling us violent, by calling us anti-semitic. >> and no and no way shape or form are any of us anti-symmetric because if we were we would not be engaging in these protests the idea of anti-semitism does it completely contradicts and conflicts with the values that we move, with was part of my calculus that he would say yes to us because he's in this presidential race absolutely. morehouse president david thomas invited biden to be the commencement speaker back in september today, he defends the decision as well as the school's choice to give biden an honorary degree what i want them to walk out thinking is
4:08 am
the president of the united states came to give the commencement speech at morehouse college because morehouse college matters in the world and therefore what i do with the privilege of having gone to morehouse means i should matter in the world in the longstanding tradition of more houses, student-led activism thomas says he will give space for protests on sunday, but we'll take a hard line if protests are disruptive gibson was among a small group that met with the white house ahead of biden's visit from that conversation, he says, it's clear, not only does morehouse matter what he says on sunday, biden has a chance to show the men of morehouse that they matter more than every four years? >> i don't want him to hit come here and campaign. >> i know he's going to told somebody some of his accomplishments. i know he's going to talk about so many things. he's going to do for black people. i'm expecting to
4:09 am
hear that, but also wanna hear authentic speech about why he's here for us and perhaps why they should be there for him. come november this week, morehouse faculty voted in support of getting president biden an honorary degree. meanwhile, student activists have taken to social media to encourage graduates on sunday to turn their back on president biden during his commencement address, they say as president biden has turned his back on palestine, victor amara nick valencia, they are on the campus of morehouse. thanks so much joining me now are democratic strategist there and johnson and gop strategist brian robinson. when is the last time there's been this much talk in the run-up toward a commencement address what's on the line for the president tomorrow? well, first of all, shoutout to cnn for you all been able to host this the bay and look we're glad that it's an atlanta and this to me really see miss that georgia is a battleground states. let's start with the speed at morehouse okay.
4:10 am
>> sorry. yeah. so look, you and i both went to hbcu. you want to howard? i would clark lanny university and i believe that these morehouse man, if you look with the president, just say, i think there's going to be peaceful protests. there's peaceful protests at every single commitment into hbcu areas right now, how they conduct themselves. and if it becomes hate speech, then that's why i think the president is going to have to step in, but i've said this before, victor, i think this is going to be a turning point in the camp and paying for the president. i think the president is not only going to talk about what it is that he's done by the way, 60 billion hbcus more than any administration has given. but i think he's going to talk to those parents and he's going to talk to the world. as i'll talk about the future, what is he doing as president now and what we continue to do as president to help these non-black may go out and be productive citizens in the future and then more importantly, look i remember being that young activists right? i pushed back a little bit arca miss miss, because most people don't even remember who the commencement. i right. >> but but i was an activist, so i definitely applaud the first amendment rights to these students have but i believe these morehouse man are going
4:11 am
to conduct themselves appropriately. what do you think is on the line with the president tomorrow? well, he can't have a bad visual cool and being having a very disruptive student body of black males, because we know that the black male demographic is a huge weakness for president biden, right now. he's got to do much better with them that he's doing. if he's going to win in georgia, particularly he's not only coming to speak to black voters, he's coming to speak do georgia voters? his, pathway to the white house becomes a very narrow if he's not able to win in georgia, the new york times poll shows biden getting in the mid 60s, but black voters in georgia now, yes, i know he's gonna do must put it up. he's got to do much better than that. but what it shows that lack of enthusiasm, a lot of them may stay home and yes, a lot of them are going to go and vote for the republican maybe for the first time a 1% downturn in black turnout in georgia and trump would have one here in 2020. that's where the margins are here. >> yeah. >> you don't for the people there have been republicans have been critical of the president coming to more house and expecting is going to get some big show of disapproval
4:12 am
you think there's an hbcu campus that donald trump could go to right now and get a better reception. >> i do know this just yesterday, the trump campaign made a deal to host a vice presidential debate on an hbcu in virginia. i think virginia state is the one that they're looking at. they're so that shows some willingness to to go into that territory. but i would say the last time trump was in atlanta, he went to a chick-fil-a right across the cic from morehouse in that neighborhood. it was a it was a he got a very, very welcome response there yeah. >> i think he would also talked about how those students were working for the gop and had worked with the gop daily all right. >> nothing to lay i would happen if no, no, no. >> shown up to chick-fil-a is not equivalent to showing up to morehouse college and other they say this, this is a huge way and from morehouse college to have a sitting president the
4:13 am
united states of america to decide to accept the invitation is september to come to your college and be the commencement speaker is something that i think these students have families are proud of. >> in this whole thing about trump. no trump would not be invited to hbcu now than when he not be invited. he wouldn't accept because he can't go into that body of students and really articulate the vision. i think in the president biden is going to talk about $16 hbcus. i'm going to funding, then i'm a trustee member of the board. clark nine university. that money goes directly to the students. let's talk about the debate now. that will be happening, i guess across the whole here in this building there is now this demand from former president trump, which he said during his remarks and minnesota yesterday, let's play it. we have i just wanted to debate this guy, but and i'm gonna i'm gonna demand to drug test too, by the way, i am no, i really i don't want him coming in like the state of the union. >> he was high as a kite i said
4:14 am
is that joe up their beautiful row? >> and by the end of the evening, he's like away it was exhausted right. now. we're going to demand a drug test now that could be just a joke playing with the audience or this could be a cop-out. >> you confident that, that trump will show up for this debate you know, it's a bit right, and actually it's pretty funny bet you heard there action of the audience they worked in the room. yeah, it worked the audience knows what he's doing and it's expectation setting to some degree. >> one thing that republicans have done is paying joe biden as senile and further into his dementia that he won't be able to perform if he is able to perform at a low level, he gets over that bar and so what you see trump doing here very strategically and smartly its second expectations game a little bit, a little bit better saying, yeah, every once a while he shows up and he's, you know, he's got his beach well, shot and he's ready to go. so i think it's a little bit of
4:15 am
expectations that in and a little bit of humor very effective quickly does the president need this? debate considering the polling numbers, i think the president definitely needs this debate. he needs not to focus on these debate tactics that donald trump is using to distract him. >> look whether he is taking a drug texts or not. >> he's going to basically be up there. he's going to make the contrast between his administration has done versus trump administration. and the last thing, look, i think that he welcomes is to buy. i like because energy to president is saying bring it on. he committed to the debate. and i definitely think we should have a crowd, right? but clearly we're not going to have the studio audience, but i do believe that how the campaign amplifies the stuff under debate would be very important to the biden campaign. all right? right. got a rapid there. brian, fair? thank you. both remember you can watch the full interview with the president morehouse, dr. david thomas is coming up on first of all, at eight or straight ahead as see you in an exclusive sean diddy combs, one of the biggest names in the music industry caught on camera, violently, shoving, kicking, punching, dragging ex-girlfriend cassie,

still buying yours. this is a secret, war. >> secrets and spies, premier sunday, june 2, attempt bomb cnn cnn exclusive. >> now, and a warning that the video is disturbing. it. surveillance video from 2016 obtained by cnn and it shows rapper and business mogul sean diddy combs violently assaulting his then-girlfriend, cassie ventura in a hotel. >> what happens in the video appears to match ventura's allegations in a federal lawsuit, which was settled just one day after she filed a back in november. cnn's elizabeth wagmeister has more new surveillance footage obtained exclusively by cnn appears to corroborate some of the allegations of abuse against music mogul sean diddy combs. >> the video captured on multiple cameras shows combs wearing only a towel, assaulting his then cassie ventura, in a hallway at los angeles hotel in march 2016, a lawsuit filed by ventura in
4:22 am
november last year and settled the next day, referenced actions that seem to match those seen in this video. there is no audio according to the complaint, combs became extremely intoxicated and punched ms ventura in the face, giving her a black eye. >> what? it's according to the lawsuit prompted ventura to try and leave the hotel room. the surveillance video obtained by cnn begins as she enters the hallway. the complaint says, as she exited, mr. combs awoke and began screaming at ms ventura he followed her into the hallway of the hotel while yelling at her. the complaint goes on to say he grabbed her and then took glass vases in the hallway and threw them at her in the surveillance video comes can be seen grabbing ventura and throwing her to the ground. as ventura lies on the ground, combs then kicks her twice and attempts to drag her on the floor back to the hotel room. ventura is seen picking up a hotel phone. comb seems to walk back to the hotel room, then returns and appears to
4:23 am
shove her in a corner. moments later, he can then be seen throwing an object in her direction. jen according to ventura's now settled lawsuit, the pair began dating several years after they met in 2005. they parted ways in 2019 combs attorney said the decision to settle was in no way an admission of wrongdoing. ventura declined to comment on the video, but her attorney told cnn the gut video has there's only further confirmed the disturbing and predatory behavior of mr. combs words cannot express the courage and fortitude that ms ventura has shown in coming forward to bring this to light. the video hasn't been seen publicly before and comes on the heels of a series of civil lawsuits alleging combs involvement in sex trafficking and sexual abuse allegations that combs has repeatedly denied authorities, searched combs homes in los angeles and miami and march, as part of an ongoing federal investigation carried out by a team that
4:24 am
specializes in human trafficking crimes in a december 2023 statement, combs responded to the claims in some of the lawsuits saying sickening allegations have been made against me by individuals looking for a quick payday. let me be absolutely clear. i did not do any of the awful things being alleged clearly, very disturbing footage and violent actions that we are seeing coming from diddy who up until this point has denied a many of these allegations from all of these lawsuits that he is facing aside from this lawsuit from casie, what she settled back in november 2023, he is facing five, seven for lawsuits and he has been fighting back through his lawyers. in fact, just last week, we reported on emotion that he filed to dismiss a lawsuit from a jane doe that claimed she was 17 years old, a minor at the time of her allegations in just a few days before that, he filed a motion to dismiss a portion of an entirely different claim.
4:25 am
it'll be interesting to see now how this may impact all that diddy is facing. but we have yet to hear directly from him wagmeister. thank you for your reporting. obviously, extremely painful to watch. let's talk more about this with a rava martin attorney. and legal affairs commentator or even before we talk about all these other lawsuits that combs is facing, a lot of people may not know that the statute of limitations has run out for him to face charges in california. so please explain that to us. the fact that he won't be charged for this yeah unfortunately, there are statutes of limitations that dictate when a federal or state prosecutors can file charges for this kind of conduct that we witnessed. >> no doubt this is criminal conduct. we witnessed domestic violence, its worst on this video. and it begs the question as to what law enforcement new
4:26 am
during this time period, during the time period where the statutes of limitations of was opened in the state of california, you have up to five years for most domestic violence claims, there are some exceptions to that. not sure if any of those exceptions would apply in this case. but generally, there is a certain fouda time in which a victim has to come forward in order for there to be a criminal prosecution. and that's what's so difficult about these cases because we know that victims of domestic violence oftentimes feel intimidated. they are afraid to come forward. there oftentimes isolated from family and friends. they're threatened are their lives are typically threatened, which is why we don't see more abusers, more predators, like sean combs actually prosecuted for these kinds of offenses and debris. >> this video is from 2016, so almost ten years ago, it happened allegedly inside a hotel hallway. and obviously if things are being broken or thrown people are going to hear things then then you also see in this lawsuit that was filed
4:27 am
by by this woman cassie, there she is. it alleges that combs paid the intercontinental century century city hotel $50,000 for the hallway security you would imagine that someone in the hotel when pulling this footage must have seen this video, does a hotel not have any liability then to report this incident? >> it's not clear that they are mandatory reporters that assist. we think about folks who have a legal obligation to report these kinds of offenses. but what it does raise is how people like sean combs, powerful people typically powerful and rich men are protected protected by others who are around them the fact that he could pay $50,000 for the security at this hotel the
4:28 am
fact that as you said, obviously someone had to witness and view this footage, but yet none of this was apparently turned over to law enforcement. and we've seen this time and time again, we go back to harvey weinstein can go back to bill cosby. so many examples of powerful men who've been able to engage in abhorrent and then at times criminal conduct and yet not be revealed, not be held accountable by our criminal justice system. this video is many ways invalidates every statement that sean combs has made. when he went on social media back in november, december of last year, deny what he called the sickening allegations and what we see in this video is sickening conduct on his part. >> then i have to ask you before we go how does this surveillance video then impact the other what five civil lawsuits that came out after cassie ventura filed hers in november yeah i have to believe that the plaintiffs attorneys
4:29 am
in those five other lawsuits are going to try to use this video as leverage to force some kind of out-of-court settlement. >> and then the question is, is there as to is there more video is there more video like this that may come out in the days to come i rava martin great to have you. thank you so much for your time this morning as russia pushes further into northeastern ukraine, ukraine's president is warning that this may only be the first wave of several incursions into the kharkiv region will have the latest on the fighting more than $500 million in art stolen me, saw what turned out to be the biggest archivist in history. >> you can't help but wonder if this one by some sort of thing, sayyed job, how would really happen with jesse l. martin? two morrow would nine on let's try this again. what do you see? >> my first step is you've been houston second championship sall's not winning a championship. >> getty was trying to stay positive. >> all positive. you didn't

4:34 am
to a surprise, russian offensive ukraine's president volodymr zelenskyy says his military still controls entry routes. russian forces would use to enter the region so then also says russian troops have advanced up to six miles since launching their cross-border offensive last week. but he says russia has not penetrated the main ukrainian defense line. >> meanwhile, ukrainian officials alleged russia has captured dozens of civilians in the border town of vovchansk using them as human shields as a town remains contested by both sides but cnn cannot independently confirm that claim. cnn's nick paton walsh is in kharkiv with more well, we're beginning to get more of a picture of exactly the level of russia's ambition in this new offensive from russian territory down towards ukraine second city kharkiv. it is essentially an entirely new front that vladimir putin has opened up. ukrainian officials, intelligence faces, suggesting that they think about 20 since he 5,000 russian troops may have been committed to this new
4:35 am
push towards kharkiv itself. now, russian president vladimir putin in china today did say that he didn't have currently today. he said any plans to take kharkiv city? i think it's fair to say it's reasonably far fetched. he could swoop into the city of nearly 1 million people and indeed occupier. but it appears his troops are aiming to make life here, exceptionally unpleasant for residents. we heard last night drones, missiles strikes life setting up the sky, anti-aircraft fire, clear that the city is already a target, but russian forces appeared to be trying to get close enough in order to fire artillery pieces directly into the city itself. that seems to be the goal of that pushed down from the north towards the city. and indeed ukraine's military suggested that it might be pushing further in perhaps trying to flank some of the key village is vital for that particular russian goal with ukraine's military saying that there are heavy battles ahead certainly. and in fact, in broad daylight here in
4:36 am
