Dana severe storms and multiple tornadoes causing significant damage across the midwest. Forecasters are warning the potential for intense Weather Activity appears to be higher today including powerful longtrack tornadoes. We have to all pay attention. Welcome to a new hour of americas newsroom, im dana perino. Bill good morning. Im bill hemmer. Violent storms leaving behind a trail of devastation and destruction across the midwest and ohio valley. Multiple tornadoes hit southwest michigan causing catastrophic damage. Governor whitmer declaring a state of emergency. Numerous severe storms expected in the hours ahead from the Southern Plains and ohio and Tennessee River valleys. Dana Robert Ray Reporting from oklahoma where an ef4 trend essentially flattened the entire town. Tell us more. Dana and bill, everyone watching, it sure did unfortunately. This is a storm cellar or shelter in a town of 1,000 people. Joy king spent a half hour down here. She survived because of it and well hear from her in a second. Now what were dealing with is one fatality here, multiple injuries and dozens of homes in destruction. People going through their homes trying to salvage what they can and most of this area is still under a lockdown as Officials Say there is one person that is missing. Unclear whether that person has left and didnt tell family or friends or god forbid underneath the rubble. Lets hear from joy king, who about 9 30 at night as the tornado ravaged through her on monday. I talked to her about her experience. I felt pressure in my ears and it just got really, really loud and The Cellar Door blew open. We have the chain to latch it and i had it latched to the bolt in the floor and it just it off and stuff blowing in there and i got in the corner the best i could with my little dog. Were alive. Were alive, thank god were alive. Literally alive because of this. To illustrate the weight of the storm door she was describing that blew open off the chain, about 100 pounds. It doesnt shut anymore and you can imagine it going back and forth as she was down in here for over a half hour and the winds 165 to 200 milesperhour were ravaging her town and her home. She came out to see full destruction. She is alive, thank god as she stated and so many other people. One person is dead here and we have to remember that is a person that born, lived, loved, learned and laughed. No matter what its a person this small town will be reeling for some time. A lot of destruction. Lets hope the heartland gets a break here soon. Dana Robert Ray With Important and courageous reporting. Please give them all our very best. Bill three minutes past the hour. Federal judge postponing trumps florida documents case. We may not get a good idea until late july and maybe not tried until after the election. Trumps Attorney Standing by if studio. Lets get to Dana Marie Mcnicholl live in miami on the news. Good morning. Good morning, bill. The original start date was may 20th in florida. Both the prosecution and defense told the court the case wouldnt be ready to go in front of a jury this month. Today were 12 days away from the May 20th Deadline and we now hear from the judge on how it will proceed. Late yesterday in a Written Order the judge said because of the classified issues and the multiple pretrial motions it would be inconsistent with the courts duty to finalize a new trial start date at this time. To challenges for scheduling trump is in the middle of a Hush Money Trial in new york right now and also the sensitivity of the classified documents at the center of this case. Trump pleaded not guilty to mishandling classified documents seized from his home in maralago in 2022. During this case the documents have to be viewed in a special room called the scif. Soundproof room protected from electronic eavesdropping. It has caused delays in the cause. Preparation takes more time. She set a series of pretrial motions through july 22nd to work out the legal issues. The case is moving forward even though we dont have a new trial start date. This afternoon there is a sealed hearing scheduled in this case. Unlike the trial in new york, the public or media doesnt have access. Bill and dana. Bill thanks for that in florida. Thanks. Dana joining us for more is trump attorney alina habba. Thank you for being with us. Last hour we had breaking news about the fani willis case, an appeal, the trump team asked for the appeal and its being granted. Other than that, whats going on . What happens in georgia is you have to ask permission to file the appeal. That was granted and now they will hear it. The appeal is based on the decision that said that look, its either you, fani, or your friend who you hired and paid millions of dollars. He excused himself from the case. Our argument is basically it doesnt right the wrongs. There should be disqualification. This case is selective prosecution and persecution at its best and now we get to be heard on that. Bill at a minimum it slows it down in Fulton County like everything else. Not everything but most cases have been. Like most cases. Bill in florida the documents case. When will this judge hold the first hearing or do you even see that in the forecast . The judge reserved and didnt give another date but there are other issues that have to be handled first. One mainly, what just came out here, we have found out that jack smith has his hand in the cookie jar. He was intentionally taking evidence, not telling the court that he had basically taken classified document covers, put them on the wrong documents because they were sloppy. He put it in a footnote. When you put that in a footnote as a lawyer i dont want to highlight it and the people read it and caught on and our team is strong there and they are looking at this closely and judge said hold on, we have a lot of other things to do before you try to pressure me like you pressured many other judges into having the rush trials before the november election. I like to see when a judge does the right thing and even in georgia when the Appellate Division is taking up issues that need to be taken up. In new york when the Appellate Division takes up issues in a timely fashion. Thats the kind of law and order we need to see more of in this country. Dana yesterdays testimony. You cant talk about Stormy Daniels testimony. Judge merchan said about the defense complaining about the testimony, he said i agree, it would have been better if some of these things had been left unsaid. They were already said in front of the jury. This is the problem here and the judge did try and put guardrails with the prosecution and say that these are the guardrails. Lets just go Back To Basics here. This is about books and records keeping. This is about somebody in trump tower who registered a legal fee as a legal fee payment, okay . Thats it. A payment to michael cohen, who was an attorney, to reimburse him was a legal fee. Thats what this case is about. President trump was in the white house and they are trying to make this a very salacious, you know, it is a complete extortion situation and they are using their hand for the Biden Administration to slow him down so he cant go on the campaign trail, two, get headlines that they think will damage him. The judge was trying to prevent that. I thought the prosecution completely disregarded the guardrails. Didnt care and why we moved for a mistrial yesterday. Bill i dont know if that will happen or not. We talked about the possibility of that under this judges jurisdiction, lets say. Turley said yesterday on the five you cant teach a cat to walk backwards, a great line. But what the judge said is i will give the jurors a limiting instruction or a limiting charge, which tells them you cant consider what was said by said witness at certain points. In trial, were not talking about just any trial here. We are talking about a president. How effective can the limiting instructions be for jurors . I think they are useless. I think they are completely useless, ill be honest with you. Its bandaid but you cant fake the injury was done. You cant unrung the bell. Pretend i didnt just say that. You arent going to there is no wipe out eraser that says i have not heard that and no limiting instruction, you will follow these orders, look. We have to be realistic about human nature. This is part of our Justice System that needs to be tweaked. Some things are antiquated. This is one of those things. There needs to be a remedy when people disregard the parameters. Bill the judge blamed you. The judge blamed trumps attorneys. Lets remember what happened there. The judge said in the courtroom that these are the parameters. They had many side bars that i cant speak to where they discussed those parameters. They thought the judge would enforce those parameters. Said to control it so they stepped back because when you are in front of a judge in general let me be clear. You cant be inappropriate and upset the judge and try to do your job and be an advocate. You dont constantly scream, yell and punch and then says guess what, you should have objected more. What are you to do in that scenario, right . We did make objections and many of them, as weve seen in courtroom time after time again are completely overruled. They are not sustained. Look, this is an art, not a science. When you are in a courtroom no matter what the reporters are saying as an attorney it is a craft. You have to sit and listen and read the room and the judge and jury. If you constantly object and the judge is constanting saying you are overruled how does it make you look to the jury . You have to look at anything. An unfair assumption if you ask me. I will be there tomorrow. Dana thank you for being here. Bill house panel is looking at Potential Bias within npr. The tax funded organization accused of mishandling major news story. The ceo is ghosting lawmakers. Good morning. Call it national no show radio. The house asked the ceo but cited a schedule conflict. There are allegations of a left wing slant. It was interesting to see him call them out for their alleged liberal bias and the fact that there was not only a dearth or complete absence of conservative views. I would like to see a reforming of the process. Former npr Editor Berliner wrote a scathing essay ripped how they covered the Hunter Biden Laptop Story and approached the campaign of president trump. Some republicans have wanted to kill funding for Public Broadcasting. Most democrats defend it. Public broadcasting belongs to everyone and i think it should exist. I think we should improve it. I think it should be used for teaching in more ways than are currently done. So i just think there is a role for that in our Media Frenzy Environment which we live. Npr receives some federal money but get help from washington and use that money to buy programs from npr. However, Public Broadcasting has its defenders on the right. Among them a member with a past in broadcasting. I think it is a valuable service. In rural states it is important. 0ing them out because we have ten years of going the wrong direction is an extreme step i wound support. Marr is willing to testify another time.

Perhaps a little bit more information what is happening with ukraine and the support that were giving that government to fight back against putin. Stand by, a lot to get to and you have a big threat in the pacific, too, the china. Stand by. More on that coming up. President biden we must give hate no safe harbor against anyone, anyone. My commitment to the safety of jewish people, the security of israel and its right to exist as an independent jewish state is iron clad. Dana he delayed a key shipment of weapons to israel. Lets bring in retired general and fox news senior strategic analyst general jack keane. Your thoughts about the delay of these weapons . Certainly its a huge contradiction when the administration is trying to say publicly that they are locked into supporting israel with everything they need and there are two issues here, one is the obvious one, they are holding back bombs, Mortar Ammunition and tank ammunition. We can make the presumption that israel needs that. They wouldnt be asking for it. The administration wont discuss what is being held back and why. So were left to speculate. It seems pretty obvious they are trying to use it as leverage with the israelis. Remember, the president has publicly disagreed with how israel is conducting its operation in rafah to eventually clear it. They would rather them not conduct the operation at all. When you look back on it he uses the term safe harbor in his discussion over the holocaust that you cannot provide that kind of safe harbor to people who are going to commit genocide, well, if we dont clear rafah, if we do as the administration would like us to do, do nothing, doesnt that provide safe harbor right there in rafah for the hamas who have already committed genocide and whose intent is to kill as many jews as they possibly can . So huge contradiction here with what public rhetoric and also what the administration is actually doing. Dana Congresswoman Tlaib is very propalestinian and said immediately our government sent the Israeli Apartheid regime with no conditions on up Holding Human rights netanyahu continued the ground war. They gave their consent for thieves atrocities and our country is actively participating in genocide. There is a lot of loaded language in there, general. Yeah, and most of it is factually incorrect. The Rafah Operation is a much smaller city than gaza city, than other cities that israel has already cleared. And what they have done is they are using the Land Block System. They have 270 land blocks. Rafah operation at the gate right now is in block ten to 16. While it is not heavily populated this they told the population to move out of there so they can conduct their operation, which has been completed. And theyve told them they have two encampments, 40,000 tanks, medical care, food and water and putting out, as i suspect as the operation begins the unfold further which i think will be much more deliberate than previous operations to protect civilians as much as possible, they are going to use that Land Block System like they did in another city and tell them to move prior to them conducting an operation, which tells hamas where and when that operation is going to be conducted. That is unprecedented in Urban Warfare until i saw it unfold here with this Gaza Operation earlier in the campaign. And to say the intent here is genocide is just not true at all. Sinwar, who is in control of gaza from hamas perspective, he is talking about the martyrdom of the gaza population. Those are words that he uses. He would gladly accept another ten, 20,000 civilians killed. Thats how diabolical and sinister they are. They believe that puts words into the mouth of the congresswoman you just heard, International Condemnation rise up in protest and it strengthens their hand in the Negotiating Table when they are dealing with the israelis. So the genocide is being committed by hamas and we have got to keep pinning the rose as to what is really happening here and the absolute misinformation that is running around the world on this issue. Dana general jack keane, thank you for the clarity. We appreciate it and see what happens and
