11:01 am
with ten hours left of a pandemic-era immigration policy border officials are seeing more than 10,000 encounters with migrants every day. so what happens tonight at midnight? homeland security secretary alejandro mayorkas just addressed that. >> and the debt ceiling standoff intensifies as the white house takes the inflation reduction act off the negotiating table. what's next and which states could get hit hardest if the u.s. defaults. >> and another reason to get the snoring partners to a doctor. a study shows sleep apnea is linked to damage in the brain. we are following these major developing stories and more
11:02 am
coming in right here to "cnn news central." just moments ago the secretary of homeland security hardened his message to migrants saying, quote, the u.s. border is not open. his comments come hours before the end of title 42, that's the public health rule that the u.s. used nearly 3 million times to immediately expel undocumented people under pandemic restrictions. communities along the border have been experiencing a surge in migrants ahead of that policy change. a source says the u.s. government is estimating more than 150,000 people are waiting to cross in northern mexico alone. let's take you to the southern border and cnn's nick valencia live for us in brownsville. nick, a big question is about the misinformation that some of these migrants have been receiving. the folks that you're speaking to there on the ground, are they
11:03 am
aware of title 42 expiring at midnight tonight? >> reporter: you know, that's great question, because the assumption is that everyone knows about title 42, which is why they showed up. the reality is that most of those who have i've spoken to have no idea what title 42 is and they think that end of title 42 means the border will be shut down entirely so they're rushing to get here. others i have spoken to, they have knowledge of title 42, i was speaking to a young man earlier about 19 years old, traveled with his family members trying to get here before the may 11th date, he said, because he was aware that title 42 was coming to an end. i want to paint a picture of what you're seeing the scene behind me here. we've seen reunification of people who haven't seen each other in days. all are waiting for family members they were separated from by immigration authorities upon arrival into the united states. as we've been showing you all week, this is an active scene and the epicenter for activity
11:04 am
once the migrants arrive. this is just across the street here, the nonprofit that has been helping them out with basic goods. see the line wrapped around the corner. earlier this morning, when we got here, there were dozens of migrants sleeping on the streets because this migrant center is at capacity and they've been that way for the last two weeks, between 800 and 1,000 splooigtsz been processed per day. team brownsville believes they're in the middle of what this surge that everyone is expecting. i spoke to the mayor of brownsville last night, and he said we are as prepared as we can be for what's to come and reminding our viewers they've been dealing with the immigration issue for decades here on the front line. they have declared a state of emergency to try to free up resources and as we've been reporting they're trying to get migrants on to the next destination. they're working in conjunction with busses and airlines to get migrants to six different cities we've reported about, but again emotional stuff happening here as, you know, nationals here that have arrived from venezuela mostly are waiting for news
11:05 am
about their loved ones. getting back to the plan in place for brownsville, i spoke to the police department a little while ago and they said they're activating their auxiliary forces to support customs and border patrol in the need they need to help out agents with what's going on as title 42 nears an end. what you're looking at is migrants that have been detained, likely, from an illegal crossing and released on humanitarian parole over to the care of the city and passed over to team brownsville. they have a plan in place. the question is will that plan work once title 42 ends. >> yeah. dhs secretary mayorkas echoing what you heard from the mayor. they're doing everything they can with what they have. nick valencia, thank you so much. want to pivot to the white house and take you to white house correspondent jeremy diamond who has been tracking the latest. dhs secretary mayorkas gave a briefing from the podium. you asked him a very important
11:06 am
question, the white house rolling out these new policies about asylum this week, announcing these new processing centers. the question ultimately is, why it took so long for them to roll these out if they knew title 42 was set to expire? what was the answer mayorkas gave you? >> yeah, that's exactly right. listen, the secretary of homeland security came out here with two messages. one he wanted to make clear that u.s. border is not open and that anybody who comes to the border and crosses unlawfully will be presumed ineligible for asylum automatically under the new immigration rules. the second thing he wanted to make clear the administration has been preparing for today, preparing with a new asylum rules, by surging resources to the border and several other measures. as you pointed out the question i asked the secretary, we heard president biden say a couple days ago that situation at the southern border is going to be, quote, chaotic for a while, as title 42 expires, and, so i asked him, how can that be,
11:07 am
given the preparations that he is now talking about? the secretary's answer was essential throw say look, we have a broken immigration system. we do not have enough resources and despite the preparations we are still expecting to face a challenge. he said he has been clear eyed for weeks about that challenge that law enforcement is going to face at the border. he nonetheless expressed confidence in border security personnel, despite those challenges. it does raise the question, you look at those regional migration processing centers they were on a screen in the white house briefing as a deterrence measure and none of those prosing centers have opened up in guatemala or colombia where the department of homeland security and the department of state said they would open. of the 1500 troops deployed, only about 550 are there. there are a lot of other resources that have been surged there, including additional dhs personnel, for example, and these new asylum rules are now in place, but nonetheless, there
11:08 am
is a fundamental irony here, despite these preparations, they are still expecting a chaotic and very challenging situation, something that we have heard, of course, republican lawmakers call out, and this is a test for the administration, a political test and a logistical test for this president. >> no question about that. by my count, mayorkas pointed the finger at congress at least half a dozen times saying their inaction in a broad way has led to this crisis. jeremy diamond from the white house, thank you so much. we are joined now by john martin, the deputy director at the opportunity center for the homeless in el paso. john, tell us how you're preparing for the lifting of title 42 at these various facilities around el paso that you're responsible for. >> well, we here at the opportunity center for the homeless operate five shelters, three of which have been significantly impacted by the influx of migrants.
11:09 am
we're one piece of the solution. we've been working closely with the city and the county of el paso along with other ngos within the community for preparation. in turn, we feel that we are ready, that in all honesty, i don't believe that no matter how prepared we are, we will be prepared. >> already right now, you have folks who are sleeping outside of your facilities, that you cannot accommodate. how many people are sleeping outside? well, in our particular case, we had up to 800 individuals that were sleeping outside in an alley behind two of our emergency shelter facilities. that's just our location. there's a second location in the community which is around a sacred heart church, a church in south el paso, typically their numbers were twice of ours, so you were looking between the two, at about 2500 individuals that were on the streets as of a few days ago.
11:10 am
you won't see that today because there's been some efforts by cbp to decompress within the streets and i believe that that was done in part because we don't know what tomorrow is going to bring. >> part of what the opportunity center does is help some migrants with processing, right, and so when you are talking to migrants and your staff is talking to them, we've heard the homeland security secretary mayorkas reiterating the border is not open, despite title 42 expiring, but when you speak to migrants is that message getting through to them? >> the answer is no. it is not getting through to them. in fact, the ones that you saw sleeping on the streets, roughly the 2500 at two different locations, many of them did not present themselves at a port of entry. and they were attempting to follow what's referred to as a process, an i--589. we have come to find out that
11:11 am
that is not sufficient to support travel within the continental united states. thus that window that opened up a few days ago where many find themselves in, were released, with the appropriate documentation for travel. when we process individuals, we're basically assisting them with travel arrangement. we are not picking up the tab for that purpose. and so regardless of where their destination is, and again it's their destination of choice, we will make the arrangements for them to get there. >> john, it is -- we're so glad to talk to you today. you're really there on the front lines as this is lifting tonight. thank you for your time. >> thank you very much. take care and have a great day. >> over to you, jim. kevin mccarthy's last-minute wheeling and dealing appears to have secured enough republican support for the gop border security bill. final passages in the house expected later today to coincide
11:12 am
with the expectation of title 42. we should note, however, the legislation virtually no chance of passages in the senate, considered dead on arrival there. manu raju joins us from capitol hill. what's in this and is there anything in this that might at some point in the future get bipartisan support or is this largely a show of force this week? >> yeah. this is a republican messaging effort to say what they would do if they had all levers of power, if they had the white house, sign this into law. something they have campaigned on but it has been difficult to get to this point. there have been division in the house republican conference over this issue. they have negotiated to come up with this package and they believe they have gotten the conference in line, say maybe one republican vote from kentucky indicating he will vote against it, but they can move no more than four. they are confident they will lose no more than four this afternoon. the package deals with --
11:13 am
focuses mainly on border security. reinstate building the border wall that was halted after donald trump left office. it would change the e-verify requirements on the employer's checking the immigration status of their employers and try to tighten that process. that became an issue they battled over as well. it would also reinstate the so-called remain in mexico policy for asylum seekers, tighten some restrictions on asylum seekers as well, but this is something that, despite its expected passage this afternoon, has no chance of passing the dmitri medvedev controlled senate. chuck schumer is poised to ignore this. the white house has issued a veto threat. republicans will tout this after its expected passage, kevin mccarthy expected to talk to reporters afterwards and argue they are fulfilling their promise as title 42 will be lifted later tonight, but there are some divisions within the ranks of the democratic side,
11:14 am
including the independent senator krysten sinema who was caucusing, still caucusing with democrats, used to be a democrat, has a bill to allow for the administration to continue to expel migrants even after the title 42 policy. she was sharply critical of the administration's handling of this issue as well. it's despite this passage today no clear consensus within capitol hill on how to deal with this issue of immigration which has dogged capitol hill for years and years without any bipartisan consensus on how to get it done. >> listen, there are bipartisan measures out there that are discussed. they just don't find their ways into bills to get passed by the parties. manu raju, thanks so much on capitol hill. jim, sources telling you, actually, that britain has delivered long-range cruise missiles to ukraine. some call the storm shadow a game changer in fight against russia. you will be joining us to explain why. also ahead in a cnn town hall last night, former president donald trump says he wants
11:15 am
people to stop dying, but wouldn't say whether he wants russia or ukraine to win the war. the biden administration is proposing new rules that could potentially slash pollution from power plants, but how much is this going to counter the climate crisis? we have new details on that ahead. you're watching "cnn news central." stay with us. to relieve pain right t where it hurts. and did we mention, it really, really sticks?s? salonpas, it's's good medicine.

11:19 am
today, the announcement of what a senior u.s. military official told me is a major game changer when it comes to weapons for ukraine in the war with russia. the uk confirmed it has delivered these to ukraine, long range storm shadow missiles as they're known. it's a cruise missile usually air launched, and it has a range triple that of the missiles that you ukraine currently has as supplied by the u.s. i'm joined by secretary leighton. let's talk about what new capability this is. the current weapons range for ukrainian forces as supplied by the u.s., 49 miles, that's deliberate. we'll talk about that in a moment. the newest one, the storm shadow here, gets you up to about 155 miles. what's the difference that makes for forces? >> the difference that makes,
11:20 am
jim, is quite profound because it's about triple the distance of the weapons ukraine has. this is the export version of the storm shadow. the version of france and britain use actually has a double range as well. so what you're talking about is a cruise missile with stealth capabilities, and it also has earth navigation capability. it flies about 150, 130 feet above the ground or a little less than that. so this is a very important missile from that standpoint. >> that can allow them to full fly under russian missile defense? i've seen these flying in ukraine. it's scary to see one because they don't fly that fast. you can see them as they move around, anyway, it's threatening if you see one come your way. the ukraine map, distance is key here. in my reporting, the agreement between the uk and ukraine to get these weapons which they've been begging for for a long time from the u.s., and its allies, is that they will only fire inside ukrainian sovereign
11:21 am
territory, some of which is, of course, occupied by russia, not fire into russia. let's talk about the range here because this has a range, 150 miles. let's talk about the distance between say zaporizhzhia and kherson here, roughly similar to that distance. so you could fire, for instance, from here into crimea. >> that's right. >> that's a problem for russia. >> and the key thing is, jim, that crimea is recognized by the uk as being sovereign ukrainian territory and as a result of that, that makes perfect sense then for weapons supplied that has this range. >> that's important because it's not just here, and by the way, easy range with this to fire, for instance, into donestk, luhansk, the eastern provinces currently as well. the red areas here occupied by russian forces. the problem, of course, i'm going to change the color again, with this range, you could conceivably fire across the border into russia. that's what has concerned u.s.
11:22 am
officials, i should note again, ukrainians have said they will not. why does that concern u.s. officials? >> what they want to do they want to make sure no russian territory is in range of any ukrainian weapons system and the reason they are doing that is because, for example, right about here is bell ga rad and that is an area that has nuclear weapons. it also has a russian military base, and it's so close to the ukrainian border that it would be within easy range even of the weapons systems that ukraine currently has. they want to make sure the ukrainians live up to this promise so they don't elevate the tensions and bring the russians into a higher level of fighting. >> we know, for instance, that ukrainians have been asking for this. this is the -- a u.s. long-range missile system known as the -- based on its acronym there, 185 miles, a little bit longer, they wanted this. instead they're getting the storm shadow.
11:23 am
major difference for ukrainian forces? >> some differences. it has a slightly longer range than what the storm shadow provides. the difference is that the storm shadow has some capabilities that the atakams does not have. they include a gps map of the earth navigation capability and the reason for that, it allows for more efficient use of fire power and effective targeting. >> a little less range, more capability and noting ukrainian forces are preparing for a counter offensive right now and this new weapon system, missile system, will give them the capability they didn't before. thanks so much as always. >> with a name like storm shadow it is begging for a g.i. joe reference, and i am here to deliver. as ukrainian ukraine gets ready, former president trump in his town hall would not commit to supporting ukraine if he wins the presidency again. here's the moment.
11:24 am
>> do you want ukraine to win this war? >> i don't think in terms of winning and losing. i think in terms of getting it settled so we stop killing all these people and breaking -- [ applause ]. >> what do you -- can i just follow up on that. you said you don't think in terms of winning and losing -- >> you have -- >> can i follow up on that -- >> excuse me. let me follow up. >> can you say if you want ukraine or russia to win this war? >> i want everybody to stop dying. they're dying. russians and ukrainians. i want them to stop dying. i'll have that done, i'll have that done in 24 hours i'll have it done. >> an answer heard all the way to europe and beyond. we have cnn's nick paton walsh live in zaporizhzhia. president zelenskyy says the country needs a little bit more time before launching a counter offensive. is he responding to any of these new comments from the former
11:25 am
president? >> not directly, but in an interview with the bbc we believe those comment were aired not in direct relation to them, he said that in reference to the u.s. presidential elections next year, who knows where we'll be then. i believe we will win. and so i think there's a feeling certainly amongst ukrainians hearing those comments that when donald trump talks about a settlement negotiation, that effectively potentially reflects an idea that they would legitimize or stabilize the current front lines in ukraine. that's a deep fear held by mane ukrainians, diplomacy would essentially result in the west trying to encourage ukraine for territorial connections. zelenskyy has been clear they want to go back to the borders pre-2014 when russia did its land grab. those comments were echoed clearly here and not really something that many of trump's republican colleagues have difficulty finding the answer to. many of them are clearly in
11:26 am
continued support for ukraine. it's a stark reminder that western support isn't necessarily something that could be counted on. we are hearing statements from western capitals but the nature of democracy, the economic turmoil, puts focus on ukraine's forthcoming counter offensive. has it begun? ukraine has been clear that they will not necessarily sound the bugle for that initial moment. they want the element of surprise. i think it's fair to say over the past weeks we've been seeing a change in tempo that suggest preparatory stages, softening of operations may be happening, but there may be more that we don't know about. the element of surprise is something the u.s. officials say they've been training the ukrainians to execute. there is pressure on the russians around bakhmut, a symbolic city for them, where yevgeny has been talking about losses. the ukrainians saying they're
11:27 am
advancing too. but the problem with prigozhin's comments about how distance and anger is at russia's top brass, there are moments tearing each other apart in public, that's going to have an impact in russia's morale. we know russia's supply chains are pretty bad and pro-russian officials are telling civilians to get away from the north and occupied areas in zaporizhzhia region. 12,000 civilians have been pulled away. ukrainian officials say troops are using that as a cover to pull back from the front lines. there's reports of fuel, cell phone problems, all sorts of issues that could hamper russia's low morale and poor occupation presence. a real sense i think of things tightening in multiple fronts across russia's beleaguered front lines here in ukraine and certainly i think president -- former president trump's comments reminding people of the need to not take endless western support is something ukrainians
11:28 am
can count upon and to try to achieve those territorial takebacks at some point during this summer. >> clearly ramping up there. nick, thank you so much for that report. boris? >> while congress and the white house remain in a standoff over the debt ceiling we have new details on which states could get hit the hardest in terms of job losses. ahead, the prime suspect in the 2005 disappearance of natalee holloway is set to be extradited to the united states. what's going to happen once he arrives? that and more next on "cnn news central." i'm christine mahon.

11:33 am
president biden and speaker mccarthy are gearing up for round two of debt ceiling talks. the goal is to hash out a deal before the u.s. runs out of money and potentially sinks into a historic default, which could be about three weeks away now. ahead of the meeting the white house laid out a list of measures with a clear message, don't even think about cutting these. cnn's lauren fox is covering this for us from the capital. how are house republicans reacting to these red lines from the president's team? >> well, at this point these are really closely held negotiations, brianna, and a lot of republicans have been arguing for the last several days that they are not going to negotiate in a public forum what they want to see is a negotiation play out with their leaders, speaker mccarthy, and like you noted there are red lines that are starting to be drawn. the white house for one does not want to repeal parts of the inflation reduction act. that is a signature piece of
11:34 am
legislation for the president, but something that house republicans debt ceiling proposal took specific aim at. there are some areas, however, where they may be able to negotiate. some of those include permitting reform, something that both republicans and democrats have wanted to see, although they do come at this by different standards. you are starting to see potential negotiation around something like maybe a work requirement, but one of the areas that they are probably going to have to focus the most closely on is spending and that is because house republicans bill did reduce spending and you've heard repeatedly from house republicans that they are not going to accept a clean debt ceiling bill. what they want to see is spending cuts accompanying those. what level those cuts are at, how specific those cuts are, that is all part of this negotiation. i should note that the staff that's been meeting over the last several days they're trying to figure out what are the terms of this negotiation. what could a framework look
11:35 am
like. they are not nearly close to a deal, they are not nearly close to releasing anything. this is honestly just a conversation around what the contours of a negotiation looks like so that tomorrow's meeting between leadership from capitol hill and the president can be more productive than tuesday's. >> let's certainly hope that it is. lauren fox on the hill for us, thank you. boris? >> the closer we get to that potential u.s. default on june 1st, the more we're learning about the damage it would unleash, including potentially millions of job cuts. let's bring in cnn's matt egan. which states could see the biggest impact from a potential default? >> well, boris, all states would be hurt because this would just be a complete debacle. we are learning more about the regional impact here. moody's analytics put out a report estimating the potential job loss and they say that there could be half a million jobs
11:36 am
lost in florida and in texas each. california could lose more than 800,000 jobs. and you can see hundreds of thousands of jobs disappearing from new york, ohio, pennsylvania, and really this is a sampling. no state would be spared here. it shows, i think, the enormous stakes during this negotiation and the importance of getting a deal done, which is why it was startling to hear former president trump last night dismissing a default, dismissing the ramifications as maybe nothing. he said it could be perhaps a bad week or a bad day. that is really the opposite of what we're hearing from experts. today i asked the top federal consumer financial watchdog, he leads the consumer financial protection bureau, i asked about trump's comments, and he didn't want to comment directly but made it clear he has the opposite view. he said there would be borrowing cost spikes, likely job loss, said, quote, a lot of things we
11:37 am
assume are part of our financial fabric would get ripped away every family should be concerned. >> just for context on those numbers you were describing half a million jobs lost in florida and texas individually. the last jobs report was thought to be only about a quarter of a million jobs. that is staggering. matt egan, thank you so much for that perspective. jim, over to you. >> well, a sign of the sad times when it comes to firearms in this country. two michigan school districts have now banned backpack for all students after several incidents in which guns were found inside backpacks. we'll have that story just ahead. more than 2 million peloton bicycles have just been recalled. we're going to tell you which ones and why. that's next.

this just in to cnn, a spokesperson for the u.s. state department suggesting the agency will not hand over key documents related to the u.s. withdraw from afghanistan, despite a contempt threat from republican lawmakers. let's bring in cnn's kylie atwood who is at the state department for us. kylie, this was a deadline set by congressman mike mccall for antony blinken to hand over diplomatic cables related to the u.s. withdraw, and it appears that's not happening? >> yeah, that's what the indication was from the state department spokesperson from the podium this afternoon. of course, we'll have to wait and see when this deadline actually happens tonight at 6:00, but as you were saying this has been an ongoing battle
11:43 am
between the house foreign affairs committee who is investigating the afghanistan withdraw during the biden administration and the state department who says that they don't want to turn over this cable because they don't essentially want those diplomats who signed on to this cable, expressing concern about the lack of preparation at the state department for the withdraw from afghanistan, they don't want those diplomats dragged into what is turning into essentially a political fight here. but the house feels, chairman mccall, feels he really does need that cable and needs to see what diplomats were saying, what they were warning the department to do that they weren't doing. we're continuing to track this. of course, it is pretty high stakes right now because the chairman has said that he is going to hold the secretary of state in contempt of congress, which is pretty critical and a very real threat from the chairman if the state department doesn't actually comply. we're watching to see what happens, but indications from the state department is that they are still standing clear
11:44 am
that they don't want to provide the actual cable. they have provided briefings, but the chairman is saying those briefings haven't been substantive enough. >> yeah. mccall even offering to redact the names of the diplomats to try to protect them the way the state department has said they want to, but response on that. we'll see what comes next. kylie atwood at the state department, thank you so much. jim? >> the main suspect in the 2005 disappearance of natalee holloway is now being extradited here to the united states. jordan van der sloot faces charges of wire fraud and extortion for scamming the holloway family. their daughter last seen leaving a bar all those years ago in aruba with him. the dutch national is serving time in a peruvian prison for a separate murder case. the holloway case inspired books, movies, theories about what happened. those hard questions, she was an 18-year-old from alabama. jean casarez joins us now. tell us what we know about these
11:45 am
charges that he faces here and is there any continuing investigation of the essential issue here, right, which is natalee holloway's disappearance? >> excellent question. i think that will be part of the u.s. case. jim, we are just learning, cnn in espanol, has confirmed they spoke with maxmore al tease n lima, peru, who said he is going to appeal the decision by the peru vien supreme court to extradite jordan van der sloot to the united states. he believes the time has passed and no longer can the statute of limitations allow him to come to this country. we will see where that goes. the prison that jordan van der sloot is in right now, is really 24 hours away by car from lima. he has not had the chance at this point to talk with his client this extortion is one of
11:46 am
the federal charges as well as wire fraud. it stems from a transaction in 2010. the holloway family was desperate to find their daughter, the remains of their daughter. so a $250,000 reward was offered. jordan van der sloot found out about that reward and according to legal documents he contacted an attorney of the family saying that he would be willing to say exactly what happened to her and where her remains could be found. but he wanted the money. the holloway family began working with the fbi, according to those legal documents, and they said it's a deal. papers are signed. he was given a $25,000 down payment put in his bank account and partially cash, and that attorney went to aruba. he drove with jordan van der sloot to a home and jordan said her remains are in the foundation of that home and my father buried her there. according to natalee holloway's mother here is what she writes. in may of 2005, my 18-year-old
