will not run for re-election next year. >> translator: i have listened to every puerto rican and i listened to you today. i've made mistakes and i apologize. i admit that apologizing is not enough. only my work will help restore the confidence of these sectors and lead to a true reconciliation. >> another big protest effort today. rossello is resigning as president of the new progressive party. protestors are not in a mood to wait. >> many puerto ricans have been calling for him to step down entirely after a leak of homophobic chat messages. the government corruption is undermining his efforts. cnn's nick peyton walsh in san juan with the latest. >> reporter: dave, christine, a bizarre statement from governor rossello. he stepped forward on facebook

on 5:45 the day before a massive protest against him on monday where organizers hope they'll get a million people out on the streets and say he is not resigning. there was a minor concession in this facebook broadcast in which he said he was not going to be contesting the elections next year. while in all honesty, he was vef unlike is digging in his heels. the reaction was, listen, this man has got to get out. one of the key goals is to lock down a major expressway into san juan. special government offices are closed. the justice department is telling local employees still to come into work but i think there's a real sense that governor rossello is blind to the calls and even the message, a blink from his press

secretary. it hasn't changed his mind. will this change his mind? we'll have to see. >> protests expected today. thank you so much for that. dramatic new audio capturing communications between iranian and british ships in the persian gulf. moments before the iranians seize the british tanker. >> if you obey, you will be save. if you obey, you will be save. alter your tours. they said the iranian revolutionary guard crew had no business telling them what to do. >> i reiterate that as you are conducting transit passage in a recognized international strait, under international law your passage must not be immarred. >> it detained the british

worker though. matthew chance is in the u.a.e. along the strait with the latest. there's the ship and new reporting in the last hour about iranians claiming to have seized cia agents. telling us more. >> reporter: yeah, the weather is absolutely scalding here. 111 degrees here today in this coastal area, but the tensions are also getting hotter and hotter as well. that's the latest development that you just mentioned there. overnight, the iranian authorities saying that they have arrested 17 people, that they have accused of spying for the c.i.a. others will be treated more lenient bely if they confess to their crimes and cooperate with iranian

authorities. as the united states tries to cast iran as the malign player in this region. this is possibly messaging by the iranian government to say, look, united states is being provocative in this region as well. the foreign minister has been saying on public platforms as well, saying that the united states is attempting to draw brittain into a broader conflict with iran. that's a reference to this growing problem, growing british dispute. the oil tanker was seized on friday. it was broadcast on iranian state television. the radio broadcasts which show that the iranians and the british navy in a sort of confrontation over the airways, there's going to be robust action, british officials say, in response to this. what that entails is not clear.

high level meetings underway. there could be sanctions and details discussed to protect international shipping. brittain has deployed another warship. it says it wants to keep this a diplomatic matter and is not looking for a military solution. with the mounting tensions you can see how an incident could spark off something broader, wider and much more dangerous. >> seemingly every day a new escalation hard to see a path that leads to sanctions relief. time will tell. matthew chance live for us near the strait. thank you. back here, for democrats who want to launch impeachment proceedings against the president, this could be a make or break week. robert mueller testifies later this week. democrats have struggled to use the report to make their case. mueller made it clear charging president trump was never an option but he refused to

exonerate him. >> if we had had confidence that the president clearly did not commit a crime, we would have said so. >> mueller will appear before the house intel and judiciary committees. here's what the two men are hoping to achieve. >> the report presents very substantial evidence that the president is guilty of high crimes and misdemeanors and we have to present -- or led that haven't had an opportunity to read 245. it's a dry prosecutorial effort. we want the people to hear it from him not filtered through bill barr who had his own misleading characterization of it. >> more than 80 house democrats have called for impeachment but the american people may not yet have the stomach for it. according to an nbc news wall

street journal poll say half of them say forget the hearings. a deal on the budget and debt ceiling appears to be taking shape. we still need the president's approval here. the washington post reports the pending deal will set new spending levels for two years. the white house had demapped 1d $50 billion in spend willing cuts. this agreement does not go that far but we don't know exactly how much would be cut. house speaker nancy pelosi and steven knmnuchin say. >> we're willing to go a good ways but the bottom line is the administration has to compromise as well. it seems when mr. mulvaney gets involved, they ask for things that are outlandish. he was one of five congressmen who wanted to shut down the government a few years ago. i'm hopeful that saner heads can prevail and we can come together. we are making progress but we're not there yet.

>> the bottom line here, every day there is less time. getting a deal locked in becomes more essential. if the debt ceiling is not raised, the government can default. a brutal heat wave straining power grids over the weekend. overnight up to 53,000 customers in new york city were without lights and air conditioning at one point. that number cut in half. con ed said it took 33,000 customers in brooklyn off the grid deliberately to protect vital equipment. in detroit, severe storms left 290,000 people without power and an unidentified woman hiking in brittain. >> good morning, guys. finally getting a break in the forecast after the upper 90s and

tenure. by 5:00 u.k. time line in the late day we'll know who has triumphed in this leadership between boris johnson, a slightly divisive man. they said boris johnson could have done more to support the outgoing minister. we'll see phillip hammond, the chancellor, the finance minister in the u.k. and the justice secretary hit the air waives on the sunday meetings. he said that the country should come out of the e.u. by the latest deadline, by october 31st, do or die. they say that is economic

suicide leaving the relationship that the u.k. has with its largest trading partner, the eu, without another game plan. either way though, with this ton of resistance from the back benches, from senior cabinet members today, what we may see is the question of not so much whether boris johnson be prime minister by this time tomorrow but how long will a boris johnson tenure hold? christine? >> wow, the plot thickens. thank you so much for that. nina dos santos in london this morning. >> wow. meanwhile, irish eyes are smiling this morning after shane lowrie wins his first career major on home turf and did it in domination. anty scholls has that i the bleacher report. yo, jer! we gotta get to the show. ♪ i was looking for a sign. get on the bus. ♪ i need something to believe in.

bein beings. creating a record of what he's done. meantime, the president has elwill he the face of the party and he 1250e78s to have really doubled down on this this weekend tweeting yesterday morning, tweeting again, keeping this alive about these four congressmen. i don't believe the four congressmen are capable of loving our country. they should apologize to america and israel, et cetera, et cetera. you know, they are destroying democratic party but people will never destroy our great nation. is this going to work for the president? >> well, the strategy is to make the democrats look extreme and then to stir up white nationalism. it could help in a lot of electoral college areas where his core remains strong. the question is does it isolate

a lot of other people who can't vote for that even if they would vote for someone with a strong economy with low unemployment. we don't know. but clearly there is an appetite for some of this, which is unsettling for a lot who are watching. >> the face of a lot of these policies is steven miller. there's trash talking of the country, they still came back with this message. here's steven miller. >> there's a gigantic, enormous distinction between donald trump saying i'm going to get on the world stage and put america first at every single thing we do versus a view that says americans should never come first which is their view and that's what we're going to take to the ballot box. >> are they doing it respectfully. they have to respond and be

forceful that that's not true. criticism and protests and they're trying to defend them. democrats have to be forceful because if not, these arguments kind of creep out there and they become part of the public. >> but don't they also have to show who the party is led by if, in fact, it's not these four women? they're into the doing that. >> they could either do that or they could make an argument we are a coalition. they could stand by everyone in the coalition and they could try to rebut this argument rather than distancing themselves from the four, which i think actually sometimes plays into what the president wants to say. let's be clear, steven miller saying america say this shouldn't come first. they have never said that? they say the kind of ideal that draw people to seek asylum or

refugee are the very ideals. >> this is an old argument that's been made against liberals, republicans. you can go back to the cold war. they don't support america first. they don't support the country. it's a way to dismiss the protests that they're trying to achieve. >> thank you so much this morning. >> thank you. a deal on the budget and debt ceiling appears to be taking shape but it still needs president trump's approval. the pending deal would extend it and this agreement does not go that far. we still don't know exactly how much to cut. the august recess is just around the corner. here's what senator chuck schumer said about the negotiations. >> we're willing to go a good ways but the bottom line, the administration has to compromise

as well. it seems when mr. mulvaney gets involved, they ask for things that are outlandish. he wanted to shut down the government a few years ago. i'm hopeful that saner heads can prevail and we can come forward. we're not ma are making progres >> the u.s. government could default on its debt in early september if the debt ceiling isn isn't. they weren't the only ones in hot pursuit. >> oh, my god! >> i got it on video. i got it on video. and it really shows. with all that usaa offers why go with anybody else? we know their rates are good, we know that they're always going to take care of us. it was an instant savings and i should have changed a long time ago. it was funny because when we would call another insurance company, hey would say "oh we can't beat usaa" we're the webber family. we're the tenney's we're the hayles, and we're usaa members for life.
