Transcripts For CNNW CNN Newsroom With Ana Cabrera 20180429

Announcer this is cnn breaking news. Its the top of the hour and youre live in the cnn newsroom. Im dana bash in washington in today for ana cabrera. In breaking news right now, hundreds of people mostly migrants from Central America are on the southern border knocking on the door to america. Theyre the people who have spent several weeks on foot or hitchhiking in buses, in trains, crossing all of mexico with the goal of reaching the u. S. Border and today the main part of that socalled caravan reached that goal. Some of them you see there climbing the border wall near san diego but stopping short of entering the United States. They say they want to enter u. S. By the proper channels by requesting asylum. I want to get straight to leyla santiago in tijuana, mexico, where we are were told that leila is not yet ready. Shes on the border. Were going to get to her when she when she is available. Right now instead we are going to turn to the plight of these migrants and the stated goal which is to reach the u. S. Border and the second part is when they get to the border, how do they get the asylum, all of these migrants weve seen, those who leila have been traveling with. You want to talk to david lee owe bold to get some of those answers. Thank you so much for coming in. Take us into this process because people are watching, theyre cnn mothers and children and families looking for what they hope is a better life in the u. S. , but there is a very sort of tresherrus Legal Process for them to try to claim asylum. Explain how that will work for them when they get to the border and for many of them now that they are at the border. It certainly is tresherrus what theyve gone through. Theyve come from horrific violence in Central America and were talking about children, were talking about mothers and children and, you know, what country would send these children back to its probably certain death. The process coming into the United States, first of all, lets be really clear. It is absolutely legal to come to the u. S. Border like they are doing and to apply for asylum. Its part of international law. Its part of our own immigration law. That doesnt make the process easy, but it is legal. So any tweets from the president or the secretary of Homeland Security claiming that these people are trying to enter illegally is just plain wrong. Thats not the case. This is a humanitarian crisis. And david, i want you to stand by because leila in santiago is available but leila i want to get to you, well get back to david in a second, take us to the Human Element that he was talking about, what are you seeing right now, what is happening on the border . [ inaudible ]. Okay. Forgive us. We clearly are having technical issues. We do want to hear from the people that leila is talking to when we get to her as soon as we can get that audio squared away. David, i want to get back to you and talk more about these Asylum Seekers that leila has been with this that are at the border. I was reading, according to an academic study done by Syracuse University from 2011 to 2016, more than three quarters of the immigrants from these various countries lost their cases in their quest to get asylum in the United States. So this is not a sure thing. No, its not. Its a very difficult process and its always been a very difficult process. I guess one of the frustrating things is you have an attorney general in Jeff Sessions who wants to make this process even more difficult, who wants to streamline or cut short the due process that we have in the immigration courts, what little of it that there is now, we have an administration that is extremist in its antiimmigrant views that really looks at this as a Law Enforcement problem, Border Security problem, when, in fact, this is a humanitarian problem. These are children. My gosh, these are children coming from horrific violence, and they have the absolute rights. These folks who have come in these socalled caravan, they have the absolute right to request asylum and as you point out, the next step would be whether they get asylum and that is a process by which they would be interviewed by our officials at the border. Customs and Border Protection and those who are deemed to have what we call a credible fear would then go to the asylum process. So there is a Legal Process that they go through, thats in place, that the United States has always adhered to. Its shocking, dana, that the president of the United States and the secretary of Homeland Security, President Trump and Kirstjen Nielsen would talk about prosecuting people. My god, are they going to prosecutor children for applying for asylum . That would be new and different. This kind of rhetoric is irresponsible coming from the president of the United States, coming from donald trump and its responsible and frankly to threaten children, to threaten Asylum Seekers with prosecution. This is humanitarian issue, not a Law Enforcement issue. They certainly have threatened prosecution but they are also saying, in fact, kirstjen niels Kirstjen Nielsen said that the dhs are trying to send individuals who can try to process this in a more expeditious way as quickly as they can to the border. Well see if that happens. Also, the thang that strikes me is, this is not the first time there has been this socalled caravan. It happens to some extent annually is my understanding. This time seems to be different for a number of reasons, not the least of which is that the president of the United States shined a light on it with his tweets. So how much is the Public Relations coming from the president and his supporters worried about these immigrants actually coming through the border versus the Public Relations for those who see this as you said as a humanitarian crisis . At the end of the day could be helpful to those seeking asylum or because of the divisive nature of this debate in this country have the other effect . I dont think the president s motive i dont think he has any interest in granting anyone any kind of benefit under the immigration law, whether its asylum to children who are fleeing horrific violence or to a business person thats trying to create jobs in the United States. This is an administration, dana, that is extremist antiimmigrant. It is broadened people from some of the most nefarious antiimmigrant groups in the country to run agencies and but david right now the law is the law. Certainly the executive branch has a some leeway, but they are supposed to process, as you mentioned, the asylum requests in a way that has been approved in a bipartisan way in the past. Thats exactly right, which is why its shocking when the president as you pointed out brought a public made public statements in his twitter account over and over about disparaging these people, that he was angry that they were coming, trying to shine light on this caravan and trying to make it more difficult, calling for mexico to break up this caravan. To me thats a violation of our international protocols. We are supposed to be considering, as you just pointed out, we are supposed to be considering as a nation, america, has in its law the obligation to consider asylum requests at the border, not for the commanderinchief, donald trump to tweet about it in a negative way and for the secretary of Homeland Security to talk about prosecution. Thats not what the law says and, you know, the president of the United States, donald trump, ought to be following the law and hes not. This is one of those instances where were seeing the red hot rhetoric partisan rhetoric, clash or come up against the image thats these are real people were talking about. Were certainly see how this plays out and how those two hopefully will find a way opportunity to secretary. Thank you so much for joining me and taking us through the process and the law and what these refugees are dealing with. Up next theres also of course ivanka.

Two competing events, one hosted by the president actually outside of washington, a rally for his supporters in michigan, but the other right here in the capital hosted by the White House Press corps. Those who covered president , it was their big annual dinner here in d. C. And heres what you heard if you watched the president s rally. Is this better than that phony Washington White House Correspondents Dinner . I could be up there tonight smiling like i love where theyre hitting you shot after shot, these people who hate your guts. And heres what you heard if you tuned in, rather, to comedian Michelle Wolf performing at the Correspondents Dinner. And of course we have Sarah Huckabee sanders, we are graced with sarahs presence tonight. I have to say im a little star struck. I love you as aund liddy in the handmaids tale. I actually really like sarah. I think shes very resourceful. She burns facts and then she uses that ash to create a perfect smokey eye. Like maybe shes born with it, maybe its lies. Probably lies. Some white house staffers were so offended that they got up and left the dinner and the president has since tweeted, calling it a very big and a very boring bust. So what does my panel think . With me now cnn political commentator, former congressman as well Jack Kingston and cnn political commentator and National Press secretary for the Bernie Sanders campaign, Simone Sanders. Simone, you were there. What did you think . The room was tense. I remember saying that Michelle Wolf was standing up there giving her jokes. I thought they were a bit crass but i thought she was funny. I laughed. The white house Correspondents Dinner is always this place where the comedian comes and they make fun of usually the president and sometimes the people that work in the white house, so i thought it was all in good fun and i appreciated the Sarah Huckabee sanders that did not get up and leave. Youve been in washington a while. Youve seen the goings on and dinners like this, people try to have a sense of humor, that is what these dinners are all about to let loose and also inherently show the respect that each institution has for the other. It hasnt been that way for a while. You were not there but you certainly have watched a lot of it. Whats your take . Ive been to my share, in the past what youve seen say better sense of fair play. Its okay to jab fun at politicians and the press and at each other, its okay, but do a little on the right and left. Make people feel comfortable. Instead this was as trump said it was just attack after attack after attack, why should he go . And if were going to call it the white house Correspondents Dinner, dont we want to make it such that a democrat or republican president could go and have fun and, you know, you understand youre going to be the brunt of the joke but you dont have to be the brunt and the viciousness, the hatred that i think Michelle Wolf had. I just want to remind folks that Sarah Huckabee sanders and other people from this white house come on this network and other networks and vilify and attack the press. So if you literally cannot take a joke, i think its problematic. Dont get mad for them not coming. So no ones i dont think people are necessarily too broken up about the fact that donald trump wasnt there, i think the White House Correspondents Association would have liked the president to attend. Theyre hoping he attends next year as is tradition but many people from the white house were there, kellyanne conway, Sarah Huckabee sanders, matt shlack were there. If you strip off the bark, this town is cynical, if you strip off the bark, being in politicians is a noble profession. Being in journalism is a noble profession. We let our cynicism rule the day. I dont think the press took the high road. I think the press could have taken the high road and had some but, but you know what Robin Williams was very hard on president reagan, for example, but its okay if hes on Comedy Central. Thats what they do on Comedy Central. This is the press. On that note. Youre right, shes not a member of the press corps. She was invite today do what she did. But there were cringe worthy moments. Its not the first time this has happened way Democratic Administration and a republican administration. Lets show our viewers a reminder. When cal ripken broke lou gehrigs record doing playbyplay on the radio with bob miller. Bobby hit a double and we all heard the president , go baby i remember commenting at the time, i bet thats not the first time he said that. Remember the astro turf in the pickup . And my point is, i stand by this man. I stand by this man because he stands for things, not only for things he stands on things, things like aircraft carriers and rubble and recently flooded city squares and that sends a strong message that no matter what happens to america she will always rebound with the most powerfully staged photo ops in the world. And those were with the president clinton and bush actually sitting right there and both of those comedians got a lot of pushback for being overthetop. I guess it begs the question whether or not weve reached the point where this were beyond this dinner because of the intensity of the partisanship and the very tough relationship that this president has with the press, that maybe we need to completely go in a different direction for that moment when we try to come together and show some respect for one another. If i had taken my 17yearold next door neighbor hunt anderson whos an idealistic guy, he wants to grab this town and come to washington whether its in the press or politics and had him sit next to me while this woman is talking about abortion jokes, while shes making fun of the way Central America<\/a> are on the southern border knocking on the door to america. Theyre the people who have spent several weeks on foot or hitchhiking in buses, in trains, crossing all of mexico with the goal of reaching the u. S. Border and today the main part of that socalled caravan reached that goal. Some of them you see there climbing the border wall near san diego but stopping short of entering the United States<\/a>. They say they want to enter u. S. By the proper channels by requesting asylum. I want to get straight to leyla santiago in tijuana, mexico, where we are were told that leila is not yet ready. Shes on the border. Were going to get to her when she when she is available. Right now instead we are going to turn to the plight of these migrants and the stated goal which is to reach the u. S.

If we were at Comedy Central<\/a> thats what you get. If youre trying to build a better, you know, a lofty ideal in society, i dont think the press should invite somebody like that. Stay with us. We have to take a quick break. Theres a lot of conversation going on about that very thing. It wasnt Michelle Wolf<\/a>s fault. She came to do what she came to do.

President trump is taking full credit for this weeks historic breakthrough between north and south korea. The leaders of two nations agree to end longstanding hostilities and work toward denuclearization of the korean peninsula, no small feat on both sides. Last night in michigan the president basked in the crowds praise asking as they chanted know belle. Watch this. Nobel nobel thats very nice, thank you. Lets talk it over with democrats Simone Sanders<\/a> who as we said is the National Press<\/a> secretary for Bernie Sanders<\/a> and Jack Kingston<\/a> former congressman fr from. If korea were to fully denuclearization and President Trump<\/a> is the one that broker that detailed, absolutely, words here definitely matter and what were talking about denuclearization of a korean peninsula, ie, the dmz, the line between north korea and south korea and not north korea itself and that is very different. Its good but very different. In politics, in diplomacy, its all about expectations, you know that. You have been in politics your adult life and you understand that. Is he setting expectations too high ahead of this meeting, he the president . I worry about it. Im assuming that theyve done a lot of ground work all ready in terms of how to deal with the inspections, where they can go, how much they can see and so forth. Closing down the nuclear test site. Theyre making the right signals. The idea of about moving the time zone to the same at south korea is actually about communication. So thats not just a symbolic move. Im excited. I think everybody on capitol hill is excited, but the president said im going to walk away if theres no progress is being made, im not going to get sucked into it like john kerry and iran, those were his words. Its not over. I agree with simone. I dont think were talking Nobel Peace Prize<\/a> until the ink is dry and the inspections are done and we know this is real. Theres one other thing to be said, north korea did has signaled that perhaps they would be willing to completely denuclearize themselves if the United States<\/a> would promise not to attack them militarily. I think were seeing north korea say that because north korea, you know, theyre not oblivious to history and they saw what happened when gaddafi and libya totally gave up his Nuclear Weapons<\/a> and he was no longer in libya any more. North korea is also in a position of trying to preserve and protect themselves and they are playing a very strategic game that perhaps currently our president is not playing. We have to play hard ball we have to willing to come to the table looking at the forest not just the trees. We are here because he went crazy talking about a button that he had and it was tactical and it worked. Do we think it was tactical or absolutely. I think it was donald trump puffing smoke and i dont think we knew how north korea i think we just fell into it. Donald trump is is not as strategic as folks want to give him credit for. Let me tell you if im china and im seeing him demand that nato increases their ante on their defense spending and troop exercises and the movement of troops to the baltic states, i see the mother of all bombs being dropped and i see attacks from of tomahawk missiles into syria, im thinking, you know what . Maybe that what you would call crazy, maybe that would scare me, so i dont agree with you but kim jongun he is not george bush, hes not barack obama and bill clinton and thats the big difference. Right. So im saying that clearly the chinese, the South Koreans<\/a> and the North Koreans<\/a> decided to get together not i dont know if we want to call it an Asian Alliance<\/a> or whatever, they decided to get together and do something about this themselves and they started conversation. The United States<\/a> was absolutely at the table but yes, as we get closer, we will have a better sense of whether, again, that happened because they were concerned that the president was getting closer to actually using conventional weapons which certainly i was hearing from my sources as you were as well. Thank you so much. What a great conversation about an important hot spot in this. Up next, more on our breaking news. That dramatic scene on the u.

The migrants mainly from Central America<\/a> say they want to seek legal asylum in the United States<\/a>. Some climbed the border wall as you see there, the one near san diego. They sat on top of it but they made clear they have no intention of crossing over illegally into the United States<\/a>. Border politics is also the topic of tonights season premier of the cnn original series, united shades of america. And the host joins me now to discuss. Im so excited for season three and it fits perfectly, the synergy is remarkable because you spent time on the border. First, let me just ask you about some of the news. Do more americans need to see the images of what we are seeing today before forming their own views on border politics . Yeah. Thats part of the reason i went down there and shot this episode of united shades down there, because a lot of americans talk about whats happening at the border and they listen today politicians like President Trump<\/a> tell us whats going on at the border, but if you go down there, you can sigh it. I was in mexico and it doesnt fill crime rid or dangerous. The economy over there feels stronger than the economy in arizona. You have to see it and thats why this reporting is so important. You certainly do. Lets play a clip from tonights border episode of united shades of america. Lets look. This morning im heading to the mexico side of la gal las. Here it is. Yep. Im walking in. Harder to get on the subway. Where you from . Do you want it in spanish or english . [ speaking in Foreign Language<\/a> ] youre from mexico. Im trying to see how good my spanish is. Where do you live now . Here in lagalos. What do you today . [ speaking in Foreign Language<\/a> ] you should probably go back to english. I heard you work. Thats all i got. [ speaking in Foreign Language<\/a> ] its true that american citizens can come to mexico and buy pharmaceutical drugs without a prescription. What about cialis . Im just asking for a friend. Okay. Its for a guy i know. There was no language barrier with cialis. That was interesting. I can say that the episode is more hard hitting than me looking for cialis in mexico just to be clear. What do the people in mexico tell you about life there . Its stark between the two cities. Because it is so hard for mexican people to cross the border, it takes a long time. People could live in mexico, work in the states, go back to mexico for lunch and go back to finish their shift in the states but thats impossible which means the economy of arizona is bad because not as much mexicans can cross the border. They dont feel like its violent there. They feel more border restrictions creates more crime and more violence actually. You showed us the ease with which you went from the United States<\/a> to mexico. What else surprised you about the border . The thing that i was most surprised about, again, is that when we talk to people about the wall, we even talk to people about Border Patrol<\/a> about the wall, nobody believes that a taller wall is going to help anything. Nobody seems to be in favor of this border wall. Every time they sighed and got exhausted like not that again. Our politicians, President Trump<\/a>, people in this country who dont live near the border claim this wall is needed and the people on the border are not claiming that according to what i saw. I dont know. I smell another emmy. I dont want to jinx it. Yeah, dont jinx it. Ones enough. No, its not. Ones not enough. I really look forward to seeing season three, tune in tonight for the premier of season three, united shades of america and that is after Anthony Bourdain<\/a> right here on cnn. Well be right back.

Secretary of state mike pompeo says he thinks theres a real opportunity to negotiate and end to north koreas Nuclear Weapons<\/a> program but the u. S. Is looking not for words, but actions. Pompeo is revealing more details of his secret meeting with kim jongun over easter weekend. He was assessing kim ahead of a planned summit with President Trump<\/a>. We talked about serious matters. He was very well prepared. I hope i matched that. We had an extensive conversation on the hardest issues that face our two countries. I had a Clear Mission<\/a> statement from President Trump<\/a>. When i left there, kim jongun understood the mission exactly as ive described it today and he agreed that he was prepared to talk about that and to lay out a map that would help us achieve that objective. Only time will tell if we can get that done. Joining me now to discuss all of this is cnn political analyst josh rogan who is also a column in any event for the the washington post. Nice to see you, josh. Likewise. Lets start with what we just heard, pompeo saying the administration is going into negotiationwise eyes wide open but how sceptical at this point should the United States<\/a> be given the fact that kim jongun is still kim jongun and north korea is still north korea . Very, very sceptical, okay. The North Koreans<\/a> have a very wellknown, well established play book. They ramp up the tensions, then they come for negotiations and every administration, obama, bush, you name it says the same thing. This time is going to be different. Were very clear eyed. Were not going to get into bribing north korea and they go through the same exact process. Now what pompeo is saying here, is that hes going to do something different. Hes going to demand actions before the pressure comes off. The problem, of course, is that as youre negotiating, the pressure is already coming off. If youre not increasing the pressure, youre lowering the pressure. So youre right to be sceptical, of course. The difference between past administrations and now is that its the president of the United States<\/a> and kim himself who are supposed to be meeting. So the stakes are so much higher for both sides to have for this to bear some fruit, right . Thats one difference. The other difference is north korea already has a bunch of Nuclear Weapons<\/a> and icbms. They have finished their testing and to figure they are going to give up that stuff is farfetched when you think about it. When you heard pompeo he was very clear. He said well define the outcome and thats it for the meeting and after the meeting the process will start. Hes setting expectations low. If you heard john bolton on another program this morning he had a very different tune. He talked about the fact that they have done this before in 2008. They destroyed the cooling tower, the whole thing, so youre seeing a break inside the administration which reflects the fact that mike pompeo has a mission and a job to do. Hes trying to make peace. He says theres an opportunity here. We have to test that opportunity and john bolton is saying theres a god chance it might not work. Theres definitely a lot of tells from john bolton that hes trying to be the person with the sort of fishing reel trying to reel it back in a little bit. And we know what john bolton really thinks about this because two months ago he said he wants to see a controlled implosion of the north korean regime with chinese help. He wants regime change and knows that and cant say that anymore but thats what hes trying. You and i were on a trip together with Vice President<\/a> mike pence a little more than a year ago. We went to the dmz. Do i have to say, and im guessing you agree with me here, that that was so tensionfilled. It was just a year ago. Right when the administration was starting their new line saying the era of strategic patience is over, and here we are a year later with a with the now secretary of state, then cia director, going and meeting with kim jongun. Even if everything stopped there, its light years away from where everything was a year ago. Right. But im going to go back to what john bolton said. Seen a lot of words but not seen a lot of action. So theres an opportunity, but theres really no evidence that north korea is really going to make the actual changes that we need to see. I went again to south korea after our trip in february. We went to the olympics, and there you had that standoff between mike pence and kim jonguns sister, and it was clear then that the u. S. Was in a position because the South Koreans<\/a> have taken this process way ahead of where we wanted, that we had a choice. We could either try to go with the South Koreans<\/a> and see it through or we could just throw up our hands which is a path that leads to war, so the Trump Administration<\/a> made the right choice. They decided to explore whether peace is possible. All of us have to sort of support that. At the same time, until we see actual signs, actual actions by the North Koreans<\/a>, all of us should remember that weve seen this movie before and we should go into it with that in mind. I think that movie was seth rogan, not josh rogan. Had to go there. Good to see you, josh rogan, appreciate it. Coming up, some of the big names from the 80s are back in the headlines.

Strong chemo can put you at risk of serious infection, which could lead to hospitalizations. In a key study, neulasta reduced the risk of infection from 17 to 1 , a 94 decrease. Applied the day of chemo, Neulasta Onpro<\/a> is designed to deliver neulasta the next day, so you can stay home. Neulasta is for certain Cancer Patients<\/a> receiving strong chemotherapy. Do not take neulasta if youre allergic to neulasta or Neupogen Filgrastim<\/a> . Ruptured spleen, sometimes fatal as well as serious lung problems, allergic reactions, kidney injuries, and capillary leak syndrome have occurred. Report abdominal or shoulder tip pain, trouble breathing or allergic reactions to your doctor right away. In patients with sickle cell disorders, serious, sometimes fatal crises can occur. The most common side effect is bone and muscle ache. So why go back there . If youd rather be home, ask your doctor about Neulasta Onpro<\/a>. Youre live in the cnn newsroom. Im dana bash in washington. We begin with breaking news. Seeking asylum. A Migrant Caravan<\/a> reaches the u. S. Mexico border after a monthlong trip thats drawn the ire of President Trump<\/a>. Some of them climbing the border wall near san diego but stopping just short of entering the u. S. Illegally. They say they want to enter through the proper channels by requesting asylum. Cnns luis ayala santiago is in tijuana, mexico where that group of people running from violence and poverty from their home countries arrived today. They are reaching the border and getting the attention that they wanted. How exactly are they dealing with what they have in store for them which is no small feat trying to get asylum . Well, take a look at this woman. I think she sort of tells the story. Shes at the front and she is crying. She has been crying for several minutes now as she gets ready to enter into the u. S. Im asking her why shes crying. Reporter well, i couldnt hear he very well but shes very emotional but shes saying shes leaving a part of herself in mexico. She doesnt know where shes going. Shes just going to the United States<\/a>, and listen. This is just one of the many stories that weve heard. I dont know her story as well, but ive seen many people with tears. Many people saying were excited to finally be here, but we come here with excitement and a lot of anxiety. They are very anxious and very nervous, especially the mothers and the grandmothers wondering what will happen when they cross this border. This has been weeks and weeks of walking, of riding on a train, on a train in which i watched as a pregnant mother of two sat on top of scrap metal and trash for hours in the cold and through the night. They have slept on the floors of shelters to arrive at this very moment, something that stuck with me. One woman who said i think a lot of people think we just woke up one day and said, oh, im going to go to the u. S. , but this has been a very, very tough, tough journey for them. Many people sniveling as well as coughing. Many of them are sick because of the type of environment in which they have traveled through to come here. This woman obviously in a wheelchair that quite frankly looks very very sort of beat up, so i can only imagine what that wheelchair, the story that that wheelchair would tell. I want to sort of make sure you understand whats happening right now beyond the high emotion, the migrants that are very excited but also anxious.
