jimenez. we are continuing our coverage on breaking news out of washington, d.c. vice president jd vance is on capitol hill, along with the senate, for a rare saturday session that has now become a saturday night session as republican leaders push to advance president donald trump's massive policy bill. and republicans are trying to get a final version to trump's desk by july 4th. but given what we've got ahead, including a key procedural hurdle now, that deadline might not be possible. we will see republicans need 51 yeas to advance the bill. the voting right now unofficially stands at 47 days and nays. meanwhile, trump is reacting to the proceedings on truth social. he put out a long statement. as you can see here, it starts essentially looks like senator thom tillis, as usual, wants to tell the nation that he's giving them a 68% tax increase as opposed as opposed to the biggest tax cut in american history. quick context there. there is no credible basis for the for the claim that failing to pass the bill would result in

anywhere near a 68% tax increase. but we have heard that from the president repeatedly to this point. it goes on to criticize tillis critically because tillis senator out of north carolina decided not to support moving forward with this procedural vote. i want to bring in cnn congressional correspondent lauren fox and cnn senior white house reporter betsy klein. as we follow this story from all angles at this point. lauren. okay, obviously, we saw what the president said. why is he singling out senator thom tillis? and, well, i guess i just said it, but why is tillis not supporting moving forward here? >> yeah, thom tillis has been clear all along that he had a lot of deep concerns about some of the medicaid cuts and what they could mean for his state's rural hospitals. that is something that he has been expressing issues with over the course of the last several days. but he announced hours ago that he was not going to support

moving forward with this bill. i will point out that in the office of the majority leader right now, senator john thune s office, there are a number of conservatives who are actually very close with president donald trump, including rick scott of the state of florida, as well as mike lee of the state of utah. and cynthia, cynthia cynthia lummis, excuse me, of the state of wyoming, who are huddling with the majority leader behind closed doors. now, they have all expressed concerns in the past that this bill adds too much to the country's debt and deficit, but they still have not voted. so thom tillis has voted no. we know senator lisa murkowski just a few minutes ago, voted yes to get on to this bill and continue debating it. but there are a number of conservatives who are actually quite close with the president, who are currently huddling with the majority leader and have yet to vote. so that just shows you that this isn't just about thom tillis. there are a number of potential holdouts here. and again, this

vote has been open for several hours. the vice president is here at the capitol preparing to be a tie breaker if he is needed. but republican leadership has already lost three republican votes. they can't afford to lose a single vote. and there are still several republicans who have yet to cast whether or not they will support this legislation moving forward or not. and it's important to point out, once again, this is not the final vote. this is just the vote to get this process underway. omar. >> the vote to get to the vote. no better words. late on a saturday night. lauren fox really appreciate it. and betsy, look, i know you've been reading through what the president put out on on truth social. just a few other excerpts. north carolina will not allow one of their senators to grandstand in order to get some publicity for himself for a possible, but very difficult reelection. and thom tillis is making a big mistake for america and the wonderful people of north carolina. so, betsy, can you just i know it might be asking a lot here, but can you try and put into context

why the president has come out? so, i mean, with such a long statement towards someone like thom tillis and why he felt the need to do so at this stage? >> well, this is such a make or break moment on both ends of pennsylvania avenue. we know that president trump is watching this vote extremely closely, and the white house and the president's team really believe that this is so critical to unlocking the rest of the president's domestic agenda going forward. so this is a very critical moment here. the president recognizing and fielding all of the concerns and questions, taking calls and making calls, reaching out to republican senators over the last 24 hours or so, including a round of golf with a trio of republican senators that included one of those holdouts, senator rand paul of kentucky, who, of course, has expressed some misgivings about the debt ceiling increase. but in addition to that, the president now taking aim at senator thom

tillis, he actually posted just a second ago, as you were reading excerpts of that post, he actually is now warning that he is going to be weighing primary challenges to senator tillis. he said numerous people have come forward wanting me to run in the primary against senator thom tillis. i will be meeting with them over the coming weeks looking for someone who will properly represent the great people of north carolina. and so importantly, the united states of america. so clearly a very serious threat there from president trump. and we should also note that the marine is positioned outside of the west wing, which does indicate that the president is inside clearly watching this extremely closely in this very serious moment for this legislation. but the reality is the president is acutely aware that there are razor thin margins in the senate and deep policy divisions amongst his party about how to proceed here. it was so critical to trump that they move forward with this as as he calls it, the

one big, beautiful bill. and that meant that there were a lot of different provisions in it. things like tax cuts as well as numerous other border security provisions, as well as that debt ceiling increase. i mentioned a few moments ago that really have a lot of different competing interests within the republican party, and we are starting to see some of that bear out here as they are struggling to keep that coalition together with those very tight margins. but the president has hosted a major event on thursday pushing for this bill. he warned that people who vote against it are, quote, grandstanders and not good people. we are starting to get a little bit of a taste of that with how he is reacting to tillis, the others he has yet to lash out at, but he's clearly monitoring this extremely closely. and of course, as lauren and annie and our other colleagues have mentioned throughout the day, this is just a first step. of course, if and once the senate passes their version of this legislation, any

changes will then need to go back to the house of representatives. the president will also need to lobby that coalition to keep them in line and get this over the finish line to get it to his desk. so a lot of work ahead for the president to close that deal. omar. >> yeah, we will see if the president continues to weigh in, keeping an eye on the feed by the minute at this point, as you mentioned, likely continuing to watch these proceedings as we are very closely. betsy klein, thank you so much for everyone else. we'll have much more ahead, including on the fate of donald trump's signature policy bill in the u.s. senate. again, just trying to get passed a key procedural hurdle. we'll bring you those details as they come in. >> around the world, it's time for live aid. >> even the experts didn't have a clue whether it was going to work. >> my head was full of, it's going to be a disaster there is

premieres sunday, july 13th on cnn. >> all right, everyone, back to our breaking news right now. u.s. senators are voting to advance president donald trump's massive tax and spending bill. and in many regards, a major test of loyalty to the president. but three republicans have already voted no, raising concerns over spending levels in some cases and cuts to medicaid. now, vice president jd vance is on capitol hill, and that's critical because he may need to cast a tie breaking vote here. if one more republican votes against the motion, it will fail. now, numerous people have, i should say the president has been weighing in tonight because north carolina senator thom tillis has been among those who has not wanted to move forward with this bill. and the president saying numerous people have come forward wanting to run in the primary against senator thom tillis. i will be meeting with them over the coming weeks looking for someone who will

properly represent the great people of north carolina. and so importantly, the united states of america. thank you for your attention to this matter. now, of course, a veiled threat for not moving forward with this procedural vote. but senator tillis, representing north carolina, that state has over 25% of their residents that are either on medicaid or child health insurance program. so a large consideration there. but not alone and not deciding to move forward. so we're going to continue to monitor this. and as we make progress, i'll bring you back. but i also want to update you on a number of other headlines going on across the world right now. in israel, tens of thousands of protesters filled hostages square in tel aviv on saturday. they called for an end to the gaza war and the return of the remaining hostages. the war in gaza now. meanwhile, donald trump is taking up a ceasefire for the

the folks who are on the caskets items to rub on the caskets. now, there are 60 coffins in total that are going through this city. among them, iran's top military leadership. you have the head of the islamic revolutionary guard corps, hossein salami, the head of iran's missile program. ali hajizadeh. many others as well, including nuclear scientists, but also civilians. there's also women and children whose caskets are in this procession right now. the people here say that they are honored to pay their final respects to those who were killed, but they're also vowing to continue to stand up to both the u.s. and israel death to america, death to israel, she says. >> god willing, they'll be destroyed soon. my message to trump is, god willing, you will die. he says, because you attacked iran. and be sure the people will take revenge for the blood of these martyrs soon, with the obliteration of trump, israel and the united states.

>> all this comes as iran's supreme leader, ayatollah ali khamenei, has lashed out at both the united states and israel, saying he believes iran's military campaign against the israelis was victorious and that also the u.s. had gained nothing from bombing iran's nuclear installations. at the same time, the iranians are vowing to be defiant, saying that their nuclear program will continue to force enrichment, will continue as well. fred pleitgen, cnn, tehran all right. >> thank you. thank you fred. meanwhile, president trump wants to sign his tax cuts and spending bill friday, the 4th of july. but a lot of work to do to get to that point, because right now republicans are scrambling just to get the votes to start debate on the measure. you're having a live look at the senate floor right now. we're going to have the latest details from capitol hill just ahead, including what the president is saying tonight. stay with. >> us.

vote, republicans need 51 yeas to move into debate. right now, the vote stands at 47 yeas and 50 nays. and that brings me to vice president jd vance, who is on capitol hill critically, because he could potentially cast a tie breaking vote if needed. joining us now from washington, dc, cnn's senior reporter annie grayer, who's been following this for i forget how long we've been following it at this point. time doesn't matter right now, but, annie, can you just tell us where we stand right now? who are we waiting on and why are we still waiting? >> so there are three republican senators at leadership and vance have been focusing on for the last three hours. when this vote started back at 730. omar, when we first started talking about this. so the three senators who still haven't voted are rick scott of florida, mike lee of utah, and cynthia lummis of wyoming. and they have been going in and out of leader thune's office. the vice president has been in there at

times, and we are seeing the pressure campaign on full display here, trying to get these last three republicans on board so republicans can take just their first step at advancing this critical piece of legislation that president trump has been pushing for months now. but this vote has been open three hours. this is not how republican leadership wanted this to go, but it just shows you how difficult this process has been because republicans are so divided on so many of the key issues for this bill, specifically medicaid cuts. that has been time and time again, the central question of how much to cut medicaid. and it has sort of been like a game of whack a mole this whole time of when you try and please one group of republicans by lessening cuts and you have another group of more right wing republicans, republicans who want deeper spending cuts. so this has been the dynamic, and it's coming down to the wire as we wait to see if the arguments from the vice president, from leader

thune and the leadership team are going to be enough, or if republicans are going to deliver an embarrassing defeat to president trump, we are standing by and waiting outside of. our team is waiting outside of thune's office, trying to get an update here, but it's really been a slow moving couple hours here. >> yeah, and we have been here over that slow moving couple of hours. but a crucial couple of hours because again, this could be the difference in potentially moving this process forward. annie grayer appreciate it. as always, i want to bring in ted johnson, who's a political reporter with deadline and joins us from washington as well. thank you for taking the time, ted. you know, one of the things that we were watching is that one of the republican senators who voted nay here decided not to support this is north carolina republican senator thom tillis. and we are seeing president trump out on truth, social tonight saying essentially threatening that he will be primary primaried for not supporting this moving

forward. i wonder, can you just contextualize the importance of this bill for the president and why we are seeing so many defections or, i guess, the nature of the defections we're seeing to this point? >> well, this is president trump's signature legislative achievement, and what they've done is everything that trump has a priority has made a priority in this second term. he has put into this one bill. so it's everything from border security. it's medicare. the changes to medicare. it's just a and then most, you know, most prominently obviously of the the tax cuts, the extension of the tax cuts that he had in his first term. so so to see this bill being blocked would be a significant defeat for trump because it would show that he

just doesn't have the power to to get this across. what we're not even talking about across the finish line. this is just to bring it to the floor to a debate. so that's why this is so important. that's why trump is kind of saber rattling and saying we're in a primary. those who voted against this, in this, in this case, senator tillis. and that's also kind of a message he's trying to send to anyone else who may be thinking of voting against this bill when it comes to the final vote, or if it comes to the final vote, the the reason that you're seeing some of these defections, in the case of for various different reasons, in the case of, of rand paul, he is, you know, made his feelings heard throughout the process that he just feels this bill is going to add too much to the national debt over its life span. and

others, i think, are taking a look at some of the polling and the polling on this bill is pretty dismal. i do have to say that one big one thing we're seeing, you know, presidency after presidency, is they start with these huge, big bills that they have to pass by a party line votes, and they have to do through the reconciliation process. the problem with that is that it allows the opposition to kind of define the bill before they have a chance to do so themselves. and that's kind of what trump is finding himself kind of the place that trump is finding himself in right now. >> yeah. and, you know, one of the interesting things is that, you know, months ago, it feels like an eternity ago, there was this debate between the house and the senate over whether they wanted to do two different processes and put the extension of the tax cuts in one set of priorities, and then put everything else in another

versus the other chamber said, you know what, let's do this all together one. and that's clearly what we're seeing right now. hence the big beautiful bill. but i wonder, look, the house put forth their version. the senate now tweaked a little bit. is there room for i might be looking too far ahead. but say this does get passed out of the senate. is there room for compromise when the house receives this once again, or are there? or is that essentially dead on arrival, making changes to what they previously put forward? >> well, i think the philosophy is the senate will have its crack at this bill, and it'll be kind of a take it or leave it to the house. the problem with that is that you already have a number of house members who've indicated that they'll vote against this, and the margin in the house is even slimmer than it is in the senate. this passed out of the house by just one

vote. so there's not a lot of wiggle room. there are several options. you know, going into conference, but that extends the timeline. and i think the philosophy is, you know, the longer you extend the timeline, the easier it is easier it is for the opposition to build to this legislation. again, it's a problem with some of these massive, massive bills. is it is so much easier for the opposition to define them before you actually get a chance to do so, or the supporters actually get a chance to do so. we've seen that obamacare, you know, they passed that and that took a much longer time. but you saw things like death panels and and by the time that passed, democrats had to pay a mighty price for it. but we've seen it in trump's first term when he

passed the tax cuts that didn't end up benefiting him so much in the midterms. and we also saw it with some of joe biden's the covid relief package ended up, you know, he was accused of that only increased inflation. so, so it it's it's a little unwieldy. so so to so to speak. and it allows for a lot of people to kind of define what they want to out of the bill. >> yeah. yeah. well it doesn't seem like it's a process that's going anywhere quickly at this point. but but ted johnson, political reporter with deadline, really appreciate you being here. thanks for taking the time. >> thank you. >> of course. all right. as we've been talking about, trump's budget bill comes with big changes likely for medicaid. cnn's jeff zeleny actually spoke to families in missouri about what potential cuts to the program could mean for them.

>> i know that they're saying that they're not planning to cut medicaid, right. i reached out, concerned that if any changes are made, there will be this trickle down effect that will impact families like mine. >> the front lines of the medicaid. debate are right here in courtney leaders kitchen. >> what is the face of medicaid, do you think? and it is. is it different than you think? some people may assume. >> i mean we are the face of medicaid. >> the missouri mother of five wrote her republican senator, josh hawley, to explain how slashing benefits would be devastating to her nine year old daughter, serena, who lives with brain damage and cerebral palsy. >> our private insurance won't cover the formula. it doesn't cover the feeding tube. pump. the hit on our budget. it would be over $1,500 a month just for the formula, just for the pump rental. and those are things that we have to have to keep my daughter alive. oh, there's my

beautiful smile. >> we came along for the ride, sitting behind serena's nurse, who's funded by medicaid. as they drove to weekly therapy sessions also paid by medicaid, which more than 1 in 5 missourians rely on for health coverage. >> we cannot let people like my daughter lose her benefits. and if anybody tells you that, oh, she's she's covered, she's protected. i would really encourage you to say how. what provisions have you made to make sure that those who meet eligibility requirements are covered? >> we visited ozarks food harvest, which distributes food across one third of missouri. >> what is the demand like for food unfortunately, jeff, right now the demand for food is quite a bit higher than it was even at the height of the covid crisis. >> congress is weighing billions in cuts to food assistance programs like snap, once known as food stamps, that will

increase demand at already crowded food pantries like this. >> how important is this food to you? >> well, it really helps us get through the month and they have a good variety of things. >> your husband got hurt in an accident? >> yeah, he fell between 10 and 11ft, land on top of his head, but it kind of changed everything. we were in the process of getting all our ducks in a row, so to speak, for retirement. and then he got hurt really bad. and it just upside down. everything and so food pantries do that have helped us through the situation. >> another hotly contested piece of the spending bill is deep cuts to rural hospitals. inside a maternity ward in clinton, missouri, doctor jennifer blair worries for her patients. >> missouri has the fourth largest number of maternity care deserts. we actually are surrounded by several maternity care deserts that's defined as a county that has no or very limited access to obstetric services for their patients. if we were to lose that access, the

birthing center here at golden valley, our patients would have to travel more than 60 miles. >> four out of five. babies that. >> are. delivered in our hospital. >> are covered by. >> medicaid. >> and that's not unique to us. >> craig thompson is ceo of golden valley memorial. he said many rural hospitals in missouri and across the country are at high risk for closure. >> is your hope for what happens over the next couple of weeks in washington and this debate? >> well, i think the thing that again, would be beneficial is for better understanding of who medicaid serves and what the real medicaid face looks like, because again, i think that's been lost somewhere along the way. >> courtney leeder shares that hope to good girl. >> oh my goodness. i do not have my daughter enrolled on medicaid so that we can have fancy things. i have my daughter enrolled in medicaid so that we can keep her alive. >> what do you worry about the most?

>> i'm worried that the red tape is going to affect our medicaid. because of just the oversight burdens. and that as a result, i'm going to lose my daughter. >> jeff zeleny. thank you for that reporting. meanwhile, president trump wants to sign his tax cuts and spending bill friday, the 4th of july. but as we are seeing a lot of hurdles right now. a lot of work to get done to get to that point, because republicans are scrambling just to get the votes to start the debate on the measure. we're going to have the latest details from capitol hill ahead. >> july 4th, join cnn for coast to coast fireworks and musical performances by noah cohen, lainey wilson, dierks bentley, sting, nelly and many more. celebrate the fourth in america live july 4th at 7:00 on cnn. >> you on your phone? >> yeah. oh, man. i'm playing this game. rural kingdom. >> you're playing royal kingdom?

another big win for team california. the power is ours. just give me a shot i'm doctor sanjay gupta in atlanta. >> this is cnn. >> all right. welcome back to our breaking news right now. u.s. senators are voting to advance president donald trump's massive tax and spending bill. really? in a major test of loyalty in some respects, to the president. but three republicans have already voted no, raising concerns over spending levels and cuts to medicaid. critically, vice president jd vance is on capitol hill because he may need to be the tie breaking vote here. because if one more republican votes against the motion, it will fail. i want to bring in michael schnell, congressional reporter with the hill. she joins us now from washington. thanks for taking the time. can you just walk us through a little bit of why the republican

senators we have seen to this point not vote to move forward here, why they have chosen to take that option? >> yeah. hey, omar. good evening. >> so to. >> set the. >> stage of. >> where we. >> are right now, this is the procedural vote for this big, beautiful bill. it's called. >> the motion to proceed. >> it's a procedural hurdle that needs. >> to be cleared to kick off debate for. >> the bill. essentially, the formal consideration process on the senate floor. >> now, where things currently stand, there are 47 republican senators. >> who have voted. >> in favor of. >> this, of. >> this procedural vote. and then there are 47 democratic senators and three republican senators who have voted against it. so right now, we are looking at a 47 in favor, 50 against vote. now there are three outliers, three folks who have not yet voted republican senators cynthia lummis, ron johnson and rick scott. now they all need to vote in support of this procedural motion in order for it to move forward. it would be a 5050 vote, but senate vice

president jd vance is at the capitol and prepared to break the tie. now, these three republican senators have been shuttling in and out of senate majority leader john thune's office, likely talking about a potential breakthrough of how they can be brought on in support. the main issue appears to be spending cuts. we know that these are three conservatives who have been pushing for more muscular spending cuts in the legislation. the problem with that, and with appeasing them, is including more spending cuts in this bill could ultimately turn off support among moderate republicans. john thune right now, walking in extremely tight rope, trying to cobble together some sort of coalition to get this over the finish line. this motion to proceed vote has been open now for a little over three hours. it began at 730. at this moment, no real indication about when things could wrap up and when we can see those three senators finally cast their votes. >> and as we await some of those senators and how they're going

to move forward, you know, senator ron johnson, for one, saying that that he doesn't like how this is adding to the deficit, the amount that he is. it's just among the various reasons we have heard from republicans to this point. when you look ahead, say this moves forward. i know i'm looking way ahead at this point. obviously, this is different than what the house passed. are there places for compromise where the house is just going to have to say, well, we're going to we're going to accept whatever the senate has changed because we want this to move forward. i just wonder what those pressure points will be. >> yeah. look, there's always room for compromise in these situations. you know, the caveat here is that senators and republican members of the house are under such immense pressure by president trump to get in line and support this ultimate package. the president has been very clear that he wants this bill to be on his desk by july 4th. so folks want to find a way to move forward. it's just a

question of what that landing spot is. look, we have seen this story play out on capitol hill before. a fierce fight. tension points between moderate republicans and hard line conservatives. ultimately, what's going to end up happening is these folks, at some point are going to find a landing spot where each side can claim victory. hardline conservatives can say, we took this deal because we got something out of it. moderate republicans can say the same thing. nobody's going to be thrilled, but they can go home to their states and their districts and make the argument of why they were successful. now, the big question now is a what does that landing spot actually look like logistically? and b, when are they going to find it? republican senators had unveiled new text changes to this sprawling piece of legislation overnight. this has been the first day that republicans are really parsing through those final specifics, and i'll note there are still plenty of opportunity to change some provisions in this bill, but they're essentially trying to find a landing spot where both sides can claim victory. what that is, is the main

question now. and when they'll actually get there. that's another big question. >> another big question as we await these holdouts, so far as we understand, senators rick scott of florida, mike lee of utah, and cynthia lummis of wyoming, we've talked about the critical folks that have not gotten on board. rand paul, kentucky, thom tillis, north carolina, ron johnson of wisconsin, and then two potential holdouts that got on board, lisa murkowski of alaska, josh hawley of missouri. these are the names that have sort of been floating around the last few hours. it seems like we're getting a little bit closer, but that's me. wishful thinking. at 1045 on a saturday night, michael schnell, really appreciate the time. thanks for being here. >> thanks, omar. >> all right, everyone, we'll be right back with more news. you're watching cnn. >> around the world. >> it's time for live aid.

state, alaska has the highest proportion of residents on medicaid of any state, with two gop senators. so a crucial switch there. and with just three republican senators left to vote, republicans need 51 yeas to move into debate right now, the vote stands at 47 yeas and nays, which is why vice president jd vance is on capitol hill, because he could potentially cast a tie breaking vote if needed. and we do know president trump is watching these proceedings closely, as he has been throughout the night. commenting on folks like senator, gop senator thom tillis, who was one of those who decided not to move forward. the president essentially threatening to primary him as a result. so we'll continue to monitor those results as they come in. meanwhile, outside of washington, a funeral was held saturday for a minnesota state lawmaker who was murdered with her husband in an act of really shocking political violence.

melissa hortman was a minnesota state representative and former house speaker in the state. she was assassinated in her home on june 14th along with her husband. now, the service saturday was attended by several democratic leaders, including former president joe biden and former vice president kamala harris. minnesota governor tim walz served as a pallbearer and delivered a eulogy. julia vargas jones has more. >> a funeral. >> with the highest. >> state honors in. >> the country's. >> first basilica. minnesota. >> in mourning. >> governor tim walz, presenting the. >> children of mark and melissa hortman with the flags flown above the capitol on the day their parents were killed. >> remember your. >> servants melissa and. >> mark the. >> political nature of their tragic deaths, the undeniable backdrop for the day's events. >> all of us are searching for some. >> kind of. >> meaning, some kind. >> of lesson that we can learn

to help ease our loss. and maybe it is this moment where each of us can examine the way we work together, the way we talk about each other, the way we fight for things we care about. a moment when each of us can recommit to engaging in politics and life, the way mark and melissa did. >> in attendance for mass, former president joe biden and vice president kamala harris. on friday, mourners paid their respects as the hartmans laid in state at the minnesota capitol melissa, the first woman in state history to receive that distinction, laid to rest beside them, their golden retriever, gilbert, just a few miles away in federal court, the man accused of killing the hartmans appeared before a judge. his attorney told the court belcher has been sleep deprived due to jail conditions and communication has been difficult. the judge granted a delay in his next hearing is now set for july 3rd. belcher faces state and federal charges, including murder, firearm

offenses and stalking. authorities say the june 14th shooting was a politically motivated assassination and that belcher could face the death penalty if convicted. he allegedly went to the hartmans home dressed as a police officer and opened fire when police showed up, then fled, triggering the largest manhunt in the state's history. before the authorities say belcher went to the homes of three other minnesota state politicians and one of them, police say he shot state senator john hoffman and his wife multiple times. both are making a recovery, but say they are, quote, lucky to be alive. according to court documents, authorities later searched belcher's vehicle and found at least three ak 47 assault rifles, a nine millimeter handgun, as well as a list of names and addresses of other public officials, most of them democrats or figures with ties to the abortion rights movement. there have been questions about what belcher's

wife jenny, knew and when investigators say she was initially not forthcoming with information, but later became cooperative. on thursday, jenny boelter spoke out for the first time, saying she and her children are absolutely shocked, heartbroken and completely blindsided. she called the attack a betrayal of everything we hold true as tenets of our christian faith, adding that from the start, her family has fully cooperated with investigators and they're grateful to law enforcement for apprehending her husband and preventing further harm. this attack comes at a time of historic rise in threats against public officials and division in america, but the overall message from saturday's service was that there is still hope to mend that division that came both from governor walz as well as from the pastor who led the services. especially when he shared what the kids of the of the hauptmann's had asked people to do in the memory of their parents. they said, plant a

tree, pet a dog, or try a new hobby. the best way to honor our parents memories, to do something to improve your community, however small. julia vargas jones. cnn. los angeles. >> all right. thank you, julie, and thank you for watching cnn newsroom. if you've been with me for hours at this point, thanks for being here. it's been a ride. i'm omar jimenez. if you're just tuning in, lucky for you, cnn newsroom continues with john vause. after a short break billionaire boys club premieres sunday, july 13th on cnn. >> doctors recommend a stool softener for gentle. >> dependable relief from constipation. it's so gentle. doctors even recommended during pregnancy and after surgery increases water in the stool, making it softer so it's easier to go. also available in delicious gummies and soft chews. fisher is at saint. >> jude because he was diagnosed with stage three medulloblastoma. saint jude is
