have any jokes, man. >> i'm and i will do it next time when my city and i'm happy that this went great, it will do the job. next time. >> we'll do the jokes next time, i'll all the best to your heart goes out to you and everybody who was at that field tonight, what a night. thanks so much. roy wood junior it's a terrific, as always. thank you. thanks for watching everybody. anderson cooper 360 next, have a good night tonight on 360. >> he's been talking plenty about revenge lately now, the former president, it takes it one step further, amplifying calls for chasing you down perceived opponents and for the first time one of his most prominent targets is responding tonight on 360. also tonight breaking news on the judge trump appointed who's now slow one walking through his classified documents, case, new reporting that her own boss, the chief judge, asked her not to take the case and later, life and remarkable career of donalds sutherland, who died today at 88 good evening. thanks for joining us. we begin tonight, keeping them on us with the question, why should the republican candidate for president, and very possibly the next president the united states, be concerned even just a little about a former career civil servant it's unclear why he is. yes, but it should concern all of us that he is the former civil servant is andrew mackay back when trump was president mckay was deputy director of the fbi, is now a cnn senior law enforcement analyst. mccabe or in trump's ire for his role in the fbi's russia investigation. he was later fired, is deputy director on then president trump's public urging just our short of qualifying for his pension, which he had to sue to get restored then he was investigated by the justice department, but never charged raising questions at the time about whether a grand jury had taken the rare step of refusing to bring indictments because such proceedings are secret. we may never know. >> but now with former president and his supporters openly calling for revenge and retribution against perceived enemies, mccabe is being targeted again, he's not, he's not the only one we should point out. >> the former president has spoken of revenge frequently well, revenge does take time. i will say that it does, and sometimes revenge can be justified. so i have to be honest you know, sometimes it can trump's advisers and supporters have talking about purging career civil servants if he's elected, especially the justice department in which he's threatening to turn into an instrument of revenge. >> and now trump has also been posting on social media linking to a story about his former strategist, steve bannon, who is reacting to the concern all this revenge talk is causing specifically to andrew mccabe talking to the sources kaitlan collins about it a lot of conversations with former colleagues, people who are or were in the intelligence and law enforcement community, and may have worked in the obama administration, other places and if people are really trying to assess what is life going to be like, if donald trump wins a second term? >> on a very personal level, i mean, these are tortures, discussions with their family members about whether or not they have to leave the country to avoid being unconstitutional ly and illegally detain. people were actually worried about being thrown in jail or grabbed in some extra judicial detention i think it's crazy as this sounds in the united states, america, i think people should really consider that these are possibilities so that's what mccabe told kaitlan collins a short time ago, bannon then responded saying this in mccabe, you should be worried you should be very worried, but also understanding this brother, we have extradition treaties with virtually every country in the world and you go ahead and run and run as far as you want. >> we're going to come and get you so that's a former and perhaps soon to be again, senior adviser to trump, who is saying much the same despite the best efforts of dr. phil and sean hannity to stop him. and again, they're taking aim with this at perceived political enemies, but also at the day-to-day in day in and day out career professionals of federal law enforcement november 5 is judgment day. january 20, 2025 is accountability de you're gonna get every single receipt? and to the fullest extension of the law, you are going to be investigated prosecuted in incarcerated. >> blade and gentlemen. >> it's very simple. victory or death and inner mccabe joins us now. >> so when you hear steve bannon saying these things and the president and former president amplifying comments that you should be worried what, what goes through your mind later? >> some part of me is not surprised at all. these are things he's been saying forever. >> we know that donald trump and his friend are these are people who are obsessed with personal grievance and settling scores their entire way of thinking about leading and administering this country is in the context of having been wronged and trying to engender support for among their supporters by throwing this kind of red meat out to people who are who respond to the language. >> so we shouldn't be surprised by it at all. they're both paranoid old men, one of whom is on his way to jail and the other one, we'll see that might happen for him as well. >> so that part doesn't surprise me. what's really to me shocking and disgusting about the rhetoric is what it says about who we are becoming as a nation. >> and the fact that a person who is quite possibly the next president of the united states is engaging in this level of absolutely fundamentally anti-democratic rhetoric and behavior and ideation everything he says is stands in direct contrast to the nation that we think we are, the nation that we have always been. but i think people have got to start asking themselves, is this the direction? that we want to go. is this the country that we're becoming a place where an incoming president takes the levers of power and uses them for his own gratification to pursue enemies, right? >> i mean, if say, if trump is reelected and see bannon is in his orbit, are still doing his little podcast and they choose to, the federal government the white house chooses to go after you they could make your life really awful. i mean, you would have to hire attorneys, you would have to at great expense i mean, i can all about that. >> yeah. i know it well. right. this is they've been doing this to meet donald trump's been doing this to me for years here's a two-year baseless criminal investigation that they ended only because it went nowhere in a federal judge essentially forced them to issue a declination a invasive irs audit the only other person i know who's ever been subjected to the same one as jim comey? not coincidentally. i'm sure the durham investigation, right? same same basic idea william barr and john durham announced that we were all criminals and then spent years traveling around the globe trying to find proof of that, which of course they couldn't i came to essentially nothing so i know what to expect. it's not about me. i'll be fine. it's about people who will be experiencing this for the first time. and more importantly, their families i talked to former officials and everyone is in the same place like we are still committed to this country and seeing this through, we still have faith in the systems that are, that are built to protect the rights of every american. but that's a hard thing to explain to your family when their thinking basically they don't want to have did live in this kind of fear and terror for another four years. >> it also, what kind of chilling effect does it have on others who are still in law enforcement are others who are still in the fbi about choices they make are decisions they make now. >> yeah. how do you think those agents felt who had the bad luck or misfortune to be assigned to the mar-a-lago raid. the marla excuse me, search warrant, not a raid what's happened to them. they've been vilified now, falsely accused by the former president of having been out to somehow assassinate him or taken out, all of which is it's sanely ridiculous and not true there are other indicators that people within government are stepping back from aspects of this work that they think might engender the same sort of scrutiny in the aftermath of the investigation of possible coordination between the trump campaign in 2016 and the russian government. the massive investigation that we mounted to get to the bottom of that, the pfizer coverage that we had on carter page, which was exposed to have been had contained numerous mistakes. that's all unforgiving non-stop attacks that donald trump has levied on the fbi for things like that. is it coincidence that the fbi's use of pfizer and domestic pfizer coverage is down about 75% and from those years are the threats facing this nation down 75%, i think not. >> and when steve bannon talks about the long arm of american justice using it to pursue you even if you leave the country. i mean, have you thought about leaving the country? >> i know what american justice is. i spent 21 years as a law enforcement officer in this country. steve bannon has no idea what he's talking about about that, or probably anything else? people who haven't committed crimes in this country have nothing to worry about. >> me people who have dedicated their lives to public service and civil service. >> i mean, it is the backbone of our democracy. >> it is, it is it is essential for the functioning of this country at agencies all over and it's extraordinary that somebody who really running for president already saying like this guy we're going to go after this person that's right. that's right. those protections, those safeguards. that's what this country was built around to protect everyone from the person in charge that's how we that's why we split off from the brits so many years ago. that's what we're all about. everyone is treated the same under the law. everybody enjoys the same protection. so to have the person who aspires to the highest seat, the highest role is job in the land to start picking out people like me or anyone else and targeting them for revenge, unleashing the rage of their supporters. in, however, that's played out it's, it's outrageous. and it's just heartbreaking that that's where we are as a nation what does it mean for national security if skilled members of law enforcement intelligence officials basically leave the leave public service because of these concerns. it's never been more important than right now that law enforcement and intelligence agencies in this country are able to attract the brightest, smartest, most dedicated people that threats are more complicated than ever are challenges with cyber everything, right? this is hiring is probably the number one i'm priority in every agency and the idea that their own potential boss would have such an effect on that community as to drive people out in droves because they are unwilling to subject themselves. so this sort of treatment, i mean, it's just absolutely contrary to where we need to be as a nation is contrary to the mission of protecting this country and the people in it. >> do you what is the next step? i mean, how do you prepare for something like this? >> i'm living my life. right? i i have the extraordinary opportunity to speak here to people like you to draw attention to these issues. i will continue to do that i'm sure people who are similarly situated to me, we'll do the same. i think it's important to keep drawing attention to these things so we see them for what they are and ultimately people of course, we'll make their own decisions at the end of the election, but this is my country, this is our country. i have there's nothing that donald trump or steve bannon can possibly do to sway me from that interim cape. thank you very much. thank you coming up next. we're breaking news on judge aileen cannon and the request that to federal fellow judges

classified documents case, judge, aileen cannon will hear a defense motion to dismiss the classified documents charges against the former president. now the thrust of bid is that special counsel jack smith was improperly appointed and funded. it's legally dubious argument which courts have rejected. but as we've been reporting and as our legal experts have been saying throughout the case, judge cannon is making habit of taking up what other judges might dismiss out of hand, which brings us to this new reporting, the new york times, that the judge was asked by two colleagues not to take the case the reporter citing two people briefed on the matter, right. the judges who approached judge cannon, including the chief judge in the southern district of florida, cecilia ml to naga. each asked her to consider whether it would be better if she were to decline the high-profile case, allowing it to go to another judge. the two people said she refused. cnn asked the chief judge, named in the article to comment. she declined however, we do have a former chief judge with us tonight. judge john e. jones, the third who headed up the federal middle district in pennsylvania along with us bestselling author and former federal prosecutor jeffrey thuban jones. what does it say to you that the cannons colleagues suggested she step aside and what does it say to you that she declined well, i think that your son i'm sad to say that she's out of her judicial depth, and i think her colleagues know that they saw that she made a hash out of the matter that she took up before this case where trump filed suit and she took a whack from the 11th circuit, and i think they were trying to protect her saying gently to her maybe it would be better to get some more experience under your belt before you take this case, it's remarkable. >> it typically doesn't have happened that often and that it got out is incredible. as well. but there are a number of different examples tomorrow being one that should have been decided on the briefs and that she is having a hearing on something that really should be easily decided. look of the 11th circuit and the supreme court wants to make new law with respect to the special counsel, let them do that, but she shouldn't be making this to such a show tomorrow. it's just it's just not good judge. him. >> jeff. i mean, not the two main theories are that she's either for inexperienced in overhead or somehow in the tank for trump were or where where does this fit into that? >> well, i mean, it's it shows that her fellow judges we knew this was coming because at least on the issue of inexperience trying big complicated cases just as a purely technical matter, is difficult. and it takes a certain amount of judicial experience and savvy to be able to do it and it often is the case that judges talk to each other and men as judge jones says, it's very rare that any of this stuff comes out publicly, but they do say, do you really think this is best for you, best for the judicial system, for whatever reason, judge cannon kept the case and that's certainly suggests partisanship may be part of it, but this pretrial proceeding has been a disaster. i mean, the incompetence and the way this has been conducted is an embarrassment to the judicial system, not not because jack smith is losing which he is just the way it is unfolded. and her colleagues for senior colleagues, tried to save her in the country from this, but she didn't go for it. >> judge. i mean, given the rebuke, the judge cannon receive from the 11th circuit court of appeals for how she handled matters pertaining to mar-a-lago search before trump was even indicted, would there have been any other recourse or mechanism for forcing her off the trial? >> not really. i think though she's walking into it now because if she decides to knock jack smith out of the box, and as i said, make new law it'll go right to the 11th circuit because it disposes of the case. and i think that dell and cedar at that point and then there's some additional matters that she's going to hear next week on the gag order anderson as jeff knows there are us magistrate judges who are appointed by courts and they're there to do a lot of grunt work and to ease the burden on the district judges she's got one right in the building judge reinhardt, who signed off on the warrant for mar-a-lago he should be handling a lot of these motions and she should have set a trial date and given him a deadline to get rid of them it is it is astonishing to me that she has an offloaded some of this stuff and that she's arrogated to herself the responsibility to hear it. that's a tool of the trade, so to speak, and that she's not avail yourself of that is very, very telling you have to have a trial date. you have to have affirmed de for trial. nothing focuses attorneys minds like a date certain for trial and that she has this case in drift the way she does frankly, is judicial malpractice. >> it let me just give an example. i hope this isn't too inside baseball, but one of the there are all these issues relating to classified information relating to jack smith that need to be decided. one of the things she did first was was here emotions about what jury instructions should be as the judge knows, jury instructions are something you, a judge deals with last right before a trial. in it just shows that she just doesn't know the structure of how federal criminal trials work, which is not surprising uprising since she was appointed in her late 30s, she had almost no experience is an actual trial lawyer. she's only i believe had four trials as a judge. she just doesn't know what she's doing and this case is paying the price i'm just separate. ahead. >> no, i just say jeff is spot on. i couldn't believe that she was dealing with jury instructions when you don't even have a trial date? you just don't do that. i mean, you do that when you're on the eve of trial but that he's exactly right. that speaks volume, judge jones. thank you. jeff thuban as well, up next, the former president's night sharing how he expects prison biden to perform next week, cnn debate

debate here on cnn, the former president is switching his tone on what he says he expects from president biden i was never a fan of his, but i will say he beat he beat paul ryan, who still years ago, but he'd beat paul ryan pretty badly i assume he's gonna be somebody that will be a worthy debater. yeah, i would say i think i don't want to underestimate him we're also getting new insight tonight to help prison biden is preparing sources, tell cnn in the president's personal attorney, bob bauer, will likely reprise the role of trump in his mock debate sessions by were told me this week that he prepared to play trump in 2020 by immersing himself in his name interviews, and speeches. >> but this debate is expected to be different with that. here is jeff zeleny the historic rematch between joe biden and donald trump is anything but a rerun of vastly different set of issues are driving disarray as the president and former president come face-to-face for the first debate of the 2024 campaign, four years since they shared a stage, the worst, whereas america has ever had in 47 months i've done more than you've done in 47 years. >> joe feels like an upside down lifetime ago back when the coronavirus pandemic was raging understand if you look, i mean, i have a mask right here. i put a mask on when i think i needed this is his economy has been he shut down in the biden trump's sequel entirely new fight has been brewing on the campaign trail. >> you could end up in world war three with this person is the worst president ever. and in tv ads this election is between a convicted criminal who's only out for himself and a president who's fighting for your family that offers a window into the new issues and fresh lines of attack. a reminder of just how much the country, the world and yes, they have changed from an insurrection in all its fallout to a new fight on abortion right in the wake of the us supreme court overturning roe versus wade to russia's invasion of ukraine and a war in the middle east to the very stark question of america's role in the world yet the economy, inflation, and immigration are still at the center of it. all trump's record was at the heart of their last debates, even and as he sought to deflect if he gets in, you will have a depression the likes of which you've never seen your foro. one case will go to hell and it'll be a very, very sad day for this country while those warnings didn't come to pass, biden's record is now under the microscope, complicating his effort to make it a referendum on trump. >> the fact is that everything he saying so far as simply ally, i'm not here to call out his lies. everybody knows he's a liar and america's oldest presidential candidates, or even older, trump's 78, and biden 81 with age and fitness for office. now a central issue in the race public opinion for president's can be punishing biden's favorability has fallen 11 point since 2020, with nearly six in ten americans holding an unfavorable view, perceptions of trump have changed less with more than half still seeing him in an unfavorable light televised debates have long been a storied part of his presidential campaigns history-making moments for candidates. >> here you go again, get this showdown is without parallel, the nation's 45th and 46 presidents i still seeking to define one another in the earliest general election debate in memory and old dual being fought on new ground. jeff zeleny, cnn washington. >> joining me now is hillary clinton's former campaign manager, robby mook cnn political commentator ashley alison, and republican strategists, doug hi doug clearly the foreign person is trying to raise expectations about president biden's performance after a long time of basically calling him old and senile. >> do you think it's going to work will have to open. >> we will have to see it. it's been a weird game that the both of these campaigns have been playing once the decision was announced at this debate was going to happen. and what those specific rules were, by the way, hallelujah, cnn for not having an audience and shutting off microphones. that second part, maybe a difficult to actually accomplish in the room. but moving this into a much more serious place, we saw the candidates try and basically say how these rules were going to benefit them and the campaign saying both of them, these rules are much more in favor for our candidate. i don't know that that's true. a lot of people say that donald trump needs an audience. lee apprentice didn't have have an audience that was a studio, yes, it was edited, but he didn't have an audience there and with no audience in there while you're donald trump or your joe biden, you have no place to hide at this point, and that makes that i think raises the stakes for both of these. these are all the marbles and this is ultimately because it may be the only one of these. we don't know if abc is going to have a debate. this is wrestle mania ravi, i mean, how do you think this debate in terms of importance in a campaign compares to the biden-trump debates in 2020 or for that matter, the clinton trump debates in 2016. >> yeah. well, as jeff zeleny mentioned, this is a really early debate, so i think the key audience, the first audience here are elites, the media, the donors, the activists, but that matters. i mean, you saw president biden, i think outperformed expectations at the state of the union. that was a real shot in the arm for the campaign, provided a lot of momentum helps with raising money so i think he could really help him press into the summer and just got to be honest, the summer months are usually the cruelest, particularly for incumbents. they're just tough months. so if he can go into july and august with a little wind behind his back, that could really help the campaign both process wise in terms of money and volunteers. and so on. but also from a message standpoint. so there's no kind of spiral because we don't know there's a lot going on around the world. a lot of extreme weather events who knows what this president is going to have to face? >> ashley i have some had talked about this debate as being the most important thing that a bad debate performance by biden would be crushing do you agree i think the president has to come out strong and have a great performance and i'm pretty confident that he will be able to do it. >> i think he's taking this debate prep serious, and he has a story to tell. and that is what he needs to do. don't play trump's game because trump is going to try and tell his life. he's not gonna be able to fact check donald trump every time he speaks because that would be all he would be spending his time and doing. but i do think this president, i agree with ravi. i'm not sure how many voters are going to really be making their decision based on this debate. >> but if either candidate has a bad performance, it can work in there. in the negative for them. so biden cannot strong, tell your story. be confident, inspire voters, and then the summer gets a little easier leading up until the fall. >> don't do you agree that this is a debate for with the beliefs that people really paying attention now or do you think this is really? >> i think i think this is very important because this may be the only one and yes, it's early the trump campaign. he had a legitimate point that debates were coming too late. we already quite often have early voting happening before we have a debate, which means that not everybody can make a fully informed decision. so i think that's part of it, but i remember being in the airport at bolt two more and then landing in asheville when the trump verdict when a verdict was announced in them, what that verdict was all the tvs were still on sports. people warrant scrolling on their phone constantly like i was trying to figure out what the verdict might be, but this is different people want to see this matchup, even if they don't want this matchup, that 25% of double-haters don't want to see this. a lot of these people are going to be tuning in because this may be their only opportunity. so if a candidate has a bad performance, these are much more important than the conventions a bad performance by either one of these can really have an impact. >> ravi based on your experiences in 2016 with the clinton trump debates, i co-moderator the second debate, which was extremely tense obviously it was right after the access hollywood tape, two days after after do you think the way this debate is set up? the muting of mics, that the lack of an audience do you think that makes much of a difference? >> i think it will help for sure. i mean, the meeting of mics will at least stop trump from just talking over president biden much in trump. trump really as a history of doing that but i think i think at the end of the day, it's up to i can speak from biden standpoint as a democrat, it's up to biden whether this is just a contest of performances or whether he can push it up to be a contest of characters he wants he wants the audience coming out of this saying there is a choice in this election as ashley was saying, joe biden was raised in pennsylvania, working class. he has been fighting for working class people. he has a set of accomplishments to prove that donald trump was born with a silver spoon in his mouth and it's going to take care of billionaires that's what he wants people walking away with. and what's naturally going to happen is a bunch of commentary about their different performances and campaigns are very different than even back in 2016, it's all about the little bites of video going out on tiktok and on youtube and so both of these candidates are right now in their debate prep, trying to prep what are those moments that the media, but also just everyday people are going to be able to splice out and push out and that's really the hard part and whatever the rules are in the room will have some impact but they're not gonna they're not going to deliver that one way or the other actually, how nasty do you think this thing is going to be i mean, the potential is huge i mean we are talking about donald trump here, right? >> so the, the risk of it being pretty nasty is high. but i think that robin's point is that joe biden has an opportunity to draw that contrast in character and compassion, as well as policy. and so i think it is a trifecta on models that he can land blows in different ways. and then you know, the president does have a sense of humor. and so i think there will be opportunities when trump goes on one of his rants, whether it's rooted in nasty language or just his belligerent way of being. joe biden can stick it, give them that scranton punch, and stick it to them so time will tell, but knowing donald trump, it won't be all pg robbing. >> look, ashley else and doug. hi. thank

partnered with a trump-aligned advocacy group are being partially funded by taxpayer dollars. some of those funds are going to unregulated private schools that don't face the same standards as public schools or have the same antidiscrimination protections this move has in part contributed to the closure of public schools in the state. cnn's renee march has more hello, phoenix phoenix mega church,

many private schools in the the us, students had dream city. can you state money to pay for private education? a cnn then investigation found dream city christian received more taxpayer money than 95%

two years ago, arizona was the first of nearly a dozen states to go to a universal voucher system where our families can use public funds regardless of income red states are leading the charge fueled by a backlash over covid closures at public schools. and a major campaign in funded, in part by a handful of conservative billionaires pushing for more public dollars for private education. >> there's

we've utterly changed the narrative and this issue of school choice has been a deciding factor in so many elections across that's the country this school year vouchers cost taxpayers in arizona hundreds of millions of dollars more than anticipated, funneling public money to unregulated private schools that don't face the same educational standards as public schools. i would submit that school choice is the best government funded anti-poverty program that's out there but although vouchers have long been pitched this way as a means to help disadvantaged students in public schools. a cnn analysis found that arizona's program is disproportionately benefiting students in richer communities. as the state's private schools like dream city get a windfall and tax dollars public schools are seeing declining enrollment and shrinking budgets. >> it hurts their neighborhood. people bought into this area we know with the fact that we have a square now we don't obvious families and

$1 million in taxpayer money and that school an outlier or are there others? >> well, anderson, we reached out to both the dream city christian school and turning point usa. they did not respond to cnn's request for comment, but it's not just dream city christian, our investigation found other arizona schools are also receiving a windfall in taxpayer dollars despite extreme right-wing policies and accusations that they discriminate against these lgbtq students. now, using public money for private school is a trend likely to continue. it's a presidential politics issue and trump has said, as
