the rules do state limited points are awarded when a race can veg flagged and cannot continue. it continued to a conclusion on track, so full points were indeed awarded. it's first time after the 2021 controversy, but this second one has looked inevitable for a number of months. through 18 races, 12 wins, just one shy of the record held by michael shoemaker. and the dutch driver has the chance to break that record. we can see. pam, right back to you. >> patrick, thank you as always. just next our of "cnn newsroom" starts now. the town of zaporizhzhia under fire. >> that's about the only thing that russians are good at, attacking civilian infrastructure. the stakes are very high

right now. >> the united states has been to be ready for putin to use a tactically nuclear weapons. in the u.s., fears of a more dangerous covid variants. we are in force meyers. finally people are able to come back, take a look at the damage. >> i was stunned. this is the kind of thing that is catastrophic. >> mold is starting to grow and accumulate on everything. this is what makes is so unlivable and unsafe. over the weekend in iran, we have seen antiregime protests continue across the country. another public show of defiance. iran state broadcaster appears to have been momentarily hacked. i'm pamela brown in washington. you are live in the "cnn newsroom."

two men shots outside the home of new york congressman lee zeldin. the republican lawmakers said his twin 16-year-old daughters were at home at the time of the shooting. we are gathering the latest information here. polo, what do we know? >> in a statement, he says he a okay and they're working with investigators to find out more about a shooting that happened on his property at his long island home we want to get you straight to the statement, the shooting happened about 2:18 eastern, my 16-year-old daughters mackayala and ariana were at our house doing homework while my wife and diana were in the car have been just departed the bronx statement. he also goes on to write --

after my daughters heard the gunshots and screaming, they ran upstairs, locked themselves in the bathroom, immediately called 911. they acted very swiftly and smartly every step of the way, and he and his wife are very proud of their daughters. i should tell you he also goes on to write the two individuals shot, according to the congressman, they were laying under his front porch. also, he writes that they were also in the bushes. it's his understanding that those individuals were transported to area hospitals. he does not know much more about their identities, but that he's actively working with investigators. we know the congress mast zeldin has been running a race against kathy hochul for governor of the state of new york, running on a big sort of anticrime platform here. investigators are speaking to him as well as other witnesses

as we try to find out more. congressman zeldin does confirm he is okay. hi daughters were in the house, also okay, as authorities are trying to speak to witnesses and find out what led to the shooting this afternoon. >> fortunately his daughters are okay. i imagine they are very shaken up, as he said in that statement. >> absolutely. polo, thank you. let's bring in charles ramsey this is a lot we don't know. of course, one of the big questions would be -- was this intentional, because this is a republican congressman, running for office there in a tight race for the governor's seat? we do not have evidence to support that. how would you proceed with this investigation, charles ramsey? >> well, we would proceed as if this were my department, like we would, with any shooting.

you go to the crime scene, gather an much evidence as you can. hopefully you enter view the individuals that were shot, others who may have witnessed it to try to find out exactly what took place. this may or may not have anything to do with the representative. unfortunately crime can happen anywhere in our country. it's way too early to draw any conclusions you have. what you know is you have two people shot and you're trying to determine why, what happens, and who may have been responsible for that particular shooting. obviously thee doen a assessment because of who he is, but i would not go so far as to even suggest this has anything to do with his running for governor at this point in time.

but, of course, still learning morn -- more. lee zeldin and his wife were at an event. chief charles ramsey, thank you. russia retaliates and ukrainian civilians die. overnight russian missiles rain down on a residential area of zaporizhzhia in southeastern ukraine. at least 13 people are dead, dozens are hospitalized. and mo victims, the russian attack come just hours after an apparent truck bomb heavily damaged thec bridge.

so that creates a huge bottleneck. >> for the very latest, let's go to nick paton walsh. nick? clear that he head -- after a meeting with the head of his investigative committee. that would potential invoke different responses. where it's likely they'll have to address this issue. these happen weekly, but there's great emphasis on this particular one. a kremlin spokesperson called it inappropriate. we simply don't know how russia is going to respond, but today state media is trying to make light of the damage, saying that cars are moving again on the

carry ways areas which they're still opening. that bridge hog used as supply troops. the idea of a russian retaliation different to understand. slamming into residential area, at least 13 dead, 80 injured, hundreds of rescuers trying to save people, an ordinary scene tragically because of russian indiscriminate targeting. do we see more in the days

ahead? ukraine hasn't claim it officially. but it's another sign of how russia's military is failing, and many are wondering what comes next out of moscow. so there's a lot to unfold here. with that a william taylor. so the russian government is calling this attack on the bridge a terrorist attack. putin will meet with his security council tomorrow. what are your concerns tonight about what may follow? >> but as nick said, pam, it's hard to tell. the russians have been firing at civil usage targets all the time. not clear.

we know where the terrorism is coming from. it's coming from the russians you have the tacked cal and scloj occasion attack. what do you expect him to do in responsibility. it might be further out of rear, but you're right, he's got the problem. he's failing form he's failing to protect infrastructure like the bridge. he's failing to get more troops. he's trying to raise 34 hundred,000 new recruits, and people are leaving.

so he's got a really -- he doesn't have the friends he thought he had s the chinese and indians are not supporting him. he's grout problems on his right. the nationalists are very vocal. he has problems in the streets. the families are not eager to see their sons go off to a war they don't understand, so he's got big problems. president biden's concern, his words, that putin could become desperate. he was the one that brought up this idea, the warning of a nuclear armageddon. the white house has been walking that back, saying there's no new intelligence to support that. that it wasn't based on anything new, but does his grim assessment make diplomacy more difficult, in your view? >> yes, and i think it's important that president biden

have this conversation whenever a dib tator threatens to use them against anyone, whether it's ukrainians or others, you have to take it seriously. that's a legitimate conversation. how are he's not looking for a way to solve this? that would stop the war. good to see you again, ambassador. i'm going to talk to one of at least mothers taking on kentucky's abortion ban in course. why one mother says the law is stopping her from having another baby. also ahead, iran state tv

(gentle music)

quite a story out of kentucky, high-risk mothers are taking the abortion ban in their state to cord. kentucky instituted a trigger law that strictly restricts abortion on june 24th. well, these women say they believe the ban puts their health and their freedom at risk, particular lay that are religious freedom. joins us is lisa sobol, and one of the women they're suing kentucky. i want to start this discussion.

you've had several ibf treatments. you have a healthy 3-year-old little girl, but you'd like to have a second child, but you're scared to try. explain how this law makes it harder for you. for me, my journey through ibf was one that had many twists and turns to it what this law does is makes me question even step one of what do i need to do to get pregnant a possibility? are there 2ki689 tests to ensure we're transferring a healthy embryo an option? will we face litigation and possibly be considered a criminal if we don't use all of our embryos. for that and so many other reasons, it's just really scary to be here in kentucky, considering starting such a

journey. >> i'm curious, given what you've been there in the past, how do you think this would have played out with this law on the books? if the law i was in place going through ibf the first time around, i more than likely would have had to transfer all four of my first embryos, none of which consider compatible for life for different reasons, and i would have faced going through ebf even more to have to do a second round in order to get pregnant with my daughter. those four different transfers are very expensive and come with a lot of emotional heartbreak. it's more than just getting a negative pregnancy test when you've been hoping. you're putting everything into it, your soul, into is this going to be the time i am told that i'm pregnant and i get to go at the starting lineup for motherhood or not.

>> yeah, that's very tough to already be wondering that in the first place. now you are suing the state attorney general over the abortion ban. your sewell, is one of the first suits of the kind in the country you are challenging on on the grounds of religious freedom. it says. in judaism, the reproductive health of a mother is between a mother, rabbi and her doctor, not the attorney general. if you would tell us more about why you believe it violates your religious freedom? the laws which have been patched together are written from a specific ideology in christianity that's not held across all christianity. more importantly than that, judaism is clear on when life begins and the health of the

mother is put above fetus when you're making these decisions. because of that, these laws are imposing that are viewpoint upon me and upon all kentuckians, not all of whom who share this one belief that legislators have put into place. >> i had a pro-life advocate on this show i asked her about this, i said there are religions that put the life of the mother or the pregnant person over the fetus and allow abortions such and judaism. this person said, look, this is about science. >> this is not about my religious beliefs. this is about science. i'm curious, what do you say to that? well, we must have had different doctors talking to us, because

it was made very clear to myself and to my husband when we were talking with our doctor, that we are looking at cells, groupings of cells that then grow and eventually turn into a fetus, and eventually become a child when it's born in my faith. there's lot of electrical impulses, and it's all magical to any mother who has been trying as hard as i did to get pregnant. the reality is they have made something into a reality that isn't true. it's a grouping of cells that then grows into a dialed at the moment that a sperm and egg meet, it's still basically two cells. >> will is -- lisa sobol, thank you for sharing your journey

with us. we have reached out to the kentucky attorney general's office, and we have not heard back. thank you again, lisa. >> thank you. still ahead, new details just coming into the newsroom about a shooting outside the home of congressman lee zeldin. what we're learning, afterer th. a lot of ideas. so when she wants a plan based on what matters most, she turns to fidelity. at fidelity, anyone can create a free plan. a plan that can change as your priorities do. and nina's free plan? it leaves her free to focus on what's important right now. that's the planning effect. from fidelity. bipolar depression. it made me feel trapped in a fog. this is art inspired by real stories of bipolar depression. i just couldn't find my way out of it. the lo of bipolar depression can take you to a dark place. latuda cld make a real differce in your symptoms. latuda was proven to significantly reduce

. more details. two people were reportedly shot outside the home of congressman lee zeldin. the republican lawmaker says his twin 16-year-old daughters were

at home at the time of the shooting and are unharmed. polo sandoval is gathering the latest. what are police saying and what is the congressman saying? >> that the girls are okay, and he and his wife are okay. now information from police suggesting a shooting reportedly took place outside the congressman's home is not related to the congressman's home. that's going to be an important detail as we continue to news gather. authorities are on the ground saying this is where the evidence is pointing right now. earlier, though, congressman ezekiel elliotten did saying that his daughters were inside at the time. that according to the congressman, they reported hearing gunshots. they scrambled for covering, hiding in the bathroom, calling police. officers arriving on the scene found two individuals who apparently had been injured under the porch of the home. they were taken to the hospital where their conditions are not

known at this hour. zeldin elected in 2014 to represent new york's 1st congressional district, actively running against new york governor kathy hochul ago well. so it would be interesting to see what this investigation reveals, but at this point authorities say the fairly tense moments in long island, new york, at the congressman's home are not necessarily related to the congressman. pamela? >> polo sandoval, thank you so much. you are in the "cnn newsroom." van jones and alice stewarter here to talk about what's on their radar, next. and that's... how you collect coins. your money never stops working for you with merrillll, a bank of america company.

language scale, if you will. i think we need to back off that a bit and do whatever we possibly can to try to get to the table to resolve this thing. >> mullen serve as the chairman of joint chiefs of staff. van jones and alice stewart join us to discuss that and much more in politics. van, let's start with you. with the president's extraordinary warning about the risk of armageddon, not being this high since the cuban missile crisis in the '60s. he said it at a fund-raiser, and the white house has been pushing back on it. what do you think, does the white house have a messaging problem here? >> well, look, i think the main threat and main danger is not

biden's words, but putin's actions. i think we need to remember he wasn't making a new speech or policy declaration. and he's something that is true. now, i would encourage the white house to do the best they can. we know joe biden is not free of gaffs, but he has been been free of them for a very long time, but to pretend if we wind up in a disaster, it's because of something he said off the record. that's not why we're headed toward disaster. it's bag putin want to booze hi will. >> what about mike mullen said. he seems to be suggesting that the president's rhetoric could escalate the situation. i'm just curious what you would say to him. >> if he continues saying it

like this, if he says it in a public forum, he could ratchet it up. we could overreact to his rhetoric was intemperate, but it was in a private form. it's not a representation of american policy. the president of the united states, anything he can say could start a war, crash a market, he has to be clear, but putin is the problem here, not biden. >> all right. we are not 30 days -- go ahead, alice. >> just quickly i agree with van. putin's actions are the real threat, with you be do have to be worried about biden's word and a possible escalation. mike pompeo has also said these words were reckless and dangerous. it's much better if we did fear the threat of a nuclear

armageddon that those kind of conversations need to be held in private and go through quiet diplomacy, as opposed to rhetoric, even in a private fund raiders. it would soon be heard around the world. 30 days now to the mid terms. all oxygen is being sucked out of room by herschel walker and rafael warnock, don bacon says, quote, we all make mistakes. >> herschel needs to come clean, just be honest. we all know we all make mistakes. it's better, if it did happen, to say i'm sorry and ask for forgiveness. ultimately this is about positions.

>> as the gop, are you sending a message that republicans are willing to win at all costs? >> i think people make mistakes. if they acknowledge them and ask forgiveness, none of us are perfect. >> there are mistakes and then allegations like this. why are reps so quick to give walker a pass on this? >> again, he vehemently denies for paying for a woman to have an abortion, and there's the bigger picture here. yes, people make mistakes and people do things in their private lives that are extremely discouraging, frustrating, not necessarily something you said to go in a public official, but what he is promising to georgia he will do in his public life as a public servant for the people

of georgia. he has laid that out very clear with his policies, in improving education. crime, the economy, inflation, as well as helping our military. those are the issues of concern to the people of georgia. they trust him, what he is saying, he will do that. i've spoken with my friends and my family who live in georgia. they say they are not deterred by what they are hearing. they would much rather have the policies of herschel walker than the rubber stamped on joe biden he would get from warnock. >> if it turns out he was engaged in this, would that be a disqualifier? what do you see to his son that he released, that his dad was lying. his son, by the way, who is a conservative? >> that's extremely disturbing. the others charges his son is making, in terms of how he's

been responsible or not for his children, that's extremely upsetting, but again people are looking at this not as what he's done in his private life, but what he's going to do as a public servant. there's a laundry list of people on both sides of the aisle that have engaged in behavior that's not what we would prefer it our elocated officials. ly spare everyone the list of democrats that fall into this category, but at the end of the day, herschel walker is the choice. there's a binary choice, and republicans in georgia would rather have him represent them in washington than warnock. >> okay. i want to -- van, i know you have a lot to say, but in the absence of time, i know you'll have a lot to say from tommy tuberville yesterday and what he said on the issue of reparations. that appears to be flat-out racist.

>> they they want crime because they want to take over what you have, they want reparations, because they think the people that do the crime are owed that. bull shit. they are not owed that. >> racism and defried with more racism. everything he's saying is unacceptable. for him to say -- for the democrats wants crime because that's a way for black people to get reparations is to say that all the criminals are black, number one is not two. number two, reparations is about taking some individual white people, when is fear mongering. it's really shocking and, you know, i'm looking at a republican party that's willing to do back flipping into the toilet to excuse herschel

walker's activity and then say nothing about this kind of thing. it's really, really offensive. it's scary that points to a paranoid style of politics, that conspiracy, and i guess gang members, cartels, they all take stuff from white people. it's not true, it's dangerous. listen, you don't hear me call people racist often, but if this is not racist, there's nothing that's racist. it's -- for him to conflate crime and reparations and say they're coming after you is completely beyond the pale. what do you say, alice? >> i agree with every word vann said, with regards to the unacceptable nature of this comment. look, he's addressing the crime problem in this country. that can speak for itself. we do have a surging crime

problem in cities across the country. it's proven to be a more significant issue for voters, in some cases it's the -- who is going to fight crime more? >> but -- >> he basically was saying who's a criminal is black, right? that is unacceptable. >> it's certainly not how you talk about the crime situation in the country. i don't agree with what he said and how he said it. the point is we do have a crime problem in this country. we need to talk about the numbers and crime and how to fight reducing crime in this -- that's not the way to do it. thank you both. i know there will be a lot more to cover. we will be right back. ♪ home decocor ♪

now to the state of the pandemic. last hour, i had a chance to speak with dr. anthony fauci. the u.s. is currently seeing some 400 covid-related deaths per day. dr. fauci fears a new and more dangerous variant could emerge this winter. it's especially concerning because, according to "the washington post," only 4% of eligible americans are fully boosted. i asked him to see if we would ever see the end of this constantly mutating environment. >> rear not going to eradicate this virus. we have only rad indicated one,

which was splaux. are we do with covid? the answer will be know. we may deal with it at a lower level, which i could accept, as long as we get to a much lower level than we are right now. i don't believe that 400 deaths a day is an acceptable level. turning now to the new cnn original series "the murdochs, empire of influence" tonight how one family's am bibses are shaping media across the world. >> if i get hit by a but, you have to did i which one of them should lead them? >> yeah, ploy adult children. >> they have to decide who all

to be the heir apparent, in terms of power, yes. financially they'll get tweeted the same. as he mumbled an announcement, i mean, trying to figure out the implications and how this works. the four adult children will maintain the votes of the murdoch family trust, and that his two young girls would share it in it financially, but not have voting control. >> joining us now to discuss is jim rutenberg, writer at large for "the new york times" and also a consulting journalist for "the murdochs: empire of influence." the succession battle is really heating up. you have laughlin the first to

be among equals. but who was he clear about? was he being coy or was he really uncertain? >> the thinking among those who know the family best is that on one hand, rupert didn't want to hand over the reigns to anyone yet. handing over the reigns is tied up with his own mortality. and then his own peers surmise that maybe he just thought that no one is up to the job that he had done, though, who in the world really would be? >> all right. anything else that we should look forward to for tonight? >> i think tonight's episode is kind of that moment when fox news really becomes the true force in american political media. so this is definitely a very consequential moment in the series. >> all right. looking forward to it. jim rutenberg, thank you so much. and be sure to tune in. an all-new episode of the murdochs, "empire of influence"
