being infected a second time, it is the risk of being more severe, and that is the reason that doctors say it is not a good idea about being casual to catch covid right now. >> and meg a new vaccine coming out, and what can you tell us about that? >> there is. we have a solid date of when to expect it. the cd c's outside group of advisers is to meet september 12th to discuss recommending vaccine, and this is after the fcc has signed off, and so if all goes well, we should see the vaccines by the end of that week to protect against this existing strain and to provide better protection. >> thank you. rahel? >> two key hearings in a central case that involves former president.
>> evan perez outside u.s. district court in washington, d.c., thanks so much. rahel? >> boris, thank you. with me to discuss a former federal judge nancy gert ner and former manhattan district attorney jeremy saland. nancy, i want to start with you in the georgia case. you are a former federal judge. talk to me about the why. what advantage does mark meadows and his team see by wanting to move this to federal court? >> there are a couple of concrete advantages. one concrete advantage is the fact that the jury pool in federal pool draws from more than just atlanta, it would actually draw from the neighboring counties, which across the country typically means suburban voters and typically means -- would be conceivably a more pro-trump configuration than just the city of atlanta. so that's one advantage. the other advantage, it would be an opportunity to present
cnn's polo sandoval has the latest. >> reporter: amara, rahel, what was described as boston's mayor as a vibrant and treasured event for the community was violently interrupted yesterday morning by the sound of gunfire. this happened in the neighborhood of dorchester, just south of downtown boston, where folks are coming together, celebrating boston's caribbean carnival for the 50th year in a row, when at one point, the sound of gunfire sent people scrambling. investigators said that seven people sustained nonlife-threatening injuries, several weapons were seized, and we're told at least two people have been detained as part of this investigation. although the motive, they're still working to try to determine that. what they have said at one point, one of the parades that make up that festival was getting started when those shots rang out. i want you to hear directly from the police commissioner when they describe what they believe may have happened. >> this morning, the shooting is not related to the parade that
>> jason, thank you. before we go, here are a couple of other stories we're following for you. investigators believe that a deadly shooting in jacksonville, florida was racially motivated. the suspect is described as a white man in his 20s. he went into a dollar a general and opened fire, killing two men and one woman before killing himself. they say that one of his guns was painted with swastikas. the fbi has launched a civil rights investigation and says it will pursue the shooting as a hate crime. former longtime host of "the price is right" bob barker has died. he hosted the popular game show for 35 years, winning 19 emmy awards and a lifetime achievement award. barker was also known for being an advocate for animal welfare issues reminding people at the end of every show to have their pets spayed or neutered. bob barker was 99. and that is our time, everyone. rahel, it's been great to be with you this weekend. thank you so much for joining us
occurred. you know, it since then happened on the outskirts of it. very early in the investigations, but it seems to potentially be two groups having some type of altercation. >> reporter: and this morning, boston police are asking anybody in the public that may have seen this, captured it with their phones to actually reach out to them, especially with any witness accounts. this would not be the first violent incident that happened at or near this festival. back in 2015, a series of shootings left several people injured and at least one person dead. and then in 2021, there was a young man that was actually watching the parade when according to the district attorney in suffolk county, massachusetts, he was approached by a stranger and then stabbed to death. so what we really have seen is boston pd really increase their presence at this event to make sure that people feel safe attending it. amarah, rahel? >> polo sandoval, thank you. 60 years after reverend martin luther king jr. led 250,000 people in the march on
appears to be close to an indictment. d.a. fani willis is expected to seek charges against more than a dozen people and likely going to make her case to the grand jury this week. marshall cohen has details. >> reporter: good morning, rahel and amara, it looks like all systems are go for the fulton county district attorney to present her case to a grand jury this week, possibly as soon as tomorrow. in the investigation of former president donald trump and his attempts to overturn the 2020 election in georgia. cnn previously reported this was expected in the coming days but we know that some of the key witnesses that were subpoenaed to testify were told specifically to show up on tuesday and the grand jury meets on mondays and tuesdays. one of the witnesses is george chidi and in 2020 he witnesses some of the fake pro-trump electors meeting in the state house in atlanta. another key figure who will head to the grand jury this tuesday
willis is now scrutinizing trump's attempts to interfere with the vote counting and the election certification, she's also looking at fake elector's scheme as well as breached by trump supporters of an election system in rural coffee county. state prosecutors are expected to give that one or two-day presentation to the grand jury this week. presumably starting tomorrow. cnn has reported that prosecutors are eyeing racketeering and conspiracy charges known as rico. and fani willis is expected to pursue indictments against perhaps more than a dozen defendants, trump's allies in the state of georgia. now the former president has already been indicted on federal charges stemming from his attempts to subvert the 2020 election and disenfranchise voters. he pleaded not guilty in that federal case and he's argued that the atlanta probe is just another witch hunt. amara and rahel. >> thank you. and for a closer look at how
>> it is not like hurricane force winds, dry brush, or red flag conditions. we saw this before, and we did not learn our lesson. that brush fire could erupt as a result of churning hurricane winds. and we underestimated the lethality, the quickness of fire. in this situation, we have got to make sure that we do better. >> cnn's gloria from honolulu, we are hearing so many traumatic stories of survival and the rescue and recovery efforts are conditioning as well. >> yes, amara, rahel, just hearing that video, hearing those people's voices and seeing the damage, in the video, and the images, it is really helping to bring everything into focus, just how much damage and loss
nine florida representatives, and you know, people here in iowa they don't exactly know who these folks are, but he's clearly sending a message to desantis who is closest to him, though behind in double digits, in most polls, and sending a message, to desantis, saying this is your home state and guess what i have. and amara and rahel, you can think of it as donald trump trolling the way he does on social media, bringing it here to the state fair in person. >> all right, lots to watch there, thank you. and for more now on the iowa state fair, let's bring in laura lopez, cnn political analyst and correspondent for the pbs news hour. good morning. let's talk about why this event is so significant. >> this event is really a key draw for all of the candidates, because it is a chance for them to press the voters and make a case for them, and along with
end of the rate hiking cycle. now there's a question of how close we are. so the issue is that, although we have come a long way, remember when consumer price index was at 9% last year in june. we're closer to 3%. but when you look at core inflation, stripping away categories like food and energy, it's still much higher than the fed would like. so there's a question now of even though we have come so far, do they still do more? as you said, governor bowman said that more rate hikes may be necessary. she has been saying that. i think it raised some eyebrows when she made these comments yesterday because we had hoped that we were closer to the end and we wouldn't have to necessarily see more rate hikes. >> okay. we'll see what's to come. thank you, rahel. appreciate it. nasa's plans for additional vehicle to take astronauts to the international space station will have to wait, at least until 2024. that's because boeing says starliner will not be ready to launch until next march at the earliest. currently nasa is using spacex to ferry the crew. cnn's kristen fisher joins us from near the kennedy space
