JOHN BERMAN, CNN ANCHOR: Happening now, wither the ceasefire? Iran says Israel violated the deal by launching its largest strikes on Lebanon since the war began. But the U.S. and Israel say Lebanon and Hezbollah, Iran's proxy in that country -- they were never meant to be included in the truce.

Vice President JD Vance said it's a legitimate misunderstanding. He is still expected to lead a U.S. delegation to Pakistan for talks with Iran this weekend.

After the Israeli strikes Iran says shipping has been halted in the Strait of Hormuz. A timelapse of shipping data today shows very little movement there. Basically, opening the Strait of Hormuz was the single major concession from Iran in this ceasefire agreement. Now that appears to be off, at least at the moment.

With us is Congressman Mike Haridopolos, a Republican from Florida. Congressman, good morning to you, sir.

Where do you think things stand as we head into these talks this weekend?

REP. MIKE HARIDOPOLOS (R-FL) (via Webex by Cisco): Well John, first, I think a lot of us are very confused at what's happening right now. You see a back-and-forth going on as usual.

As you know, you reported for years Iran has never been exactly the most ethical, let alone honest country in the world as they're killing their own citizens and, of course, always using delaying tactics. This is why it's so essential we keep our military in the region because if they will not keep their promises we're going to have to continue to prosecute this war to make sure the strait stays open and most importantly, that Iran never gets a nuclear weapon.

BERMAN: So as things stand right now Iran still does have 900 pounds, it is estimated, of enriched uranium buried in the ground. Iran is still controlling, as things stand this morning it appears, the Strait of Hormuz. Former House Speaker Newt Gingrich said, "My number one concern right

now is to see over the next four to six weeks whether we lied to ourselves because we lost our nerve or whether we got a real agreement with real teeth that involves real change."

That's his concern.

What concerns do you have, if any, this morning?

HARIDOPOLOS: Well look, I think we all should be concerned. Again, you're dealing with a regime who is willing to kill their own people. They've created havoc in this region since 1979 and there's a reason why every one of their neighbors has sided with us, whether it be Oman, Qatar, Jordan, Kuwait, UAE, Saudi Arabia.

And this is a confusing, difficult situation. I think a lot of us are asking who is really in control in Iran at this point considering we've taken out their command and control structure, we destroyed their Navy, their Air Force, and many of their factories.

This is why we need to continue to prosecute the peace process because we've made a lot of success in the military components. But the peace process is the most important -- that we hold them accountable -- because as you said perfectly John, they're holding a lot of nuclear materials, and we can never allow them to acquire that weapon. You see what they're willing to do to their own people and it's why we need to be very aggressive and not just allow their talk to carry the day.

BERMAN: The president and Secretary of Defense Hegseth have said we're watching that material via satellite. Is that enough for you?

HARIDOPOLOS: Look, I think it's a start. Again, this is -- the reason why we got into this conflict is because we all recognized the threat of Iran. Even Democrats, whether it be Sen. Murphy or others, are saying that Iran has these materials. We need to make sure they never acquire the weapon.

You saw recently that they can fire these weapons 2,500 miles away. That puts cities like Rome, and Vienna, and Berlin in threat. And so they've lied about their ability to do that.

So that's the reason why I think we move forward and hopefully, our NATO allies will assist us in these efforts to open up the strait because it's in their long-term interest to, let alone India and China.

BERMAN: Shifting gears, Congressman, I follow your Twitter feed, and I don't think I've ever seen someone so excited about a space mission. You represent the Space Coast -- I should say that -- so you have a -- you have a vested interest in it there.

What are your feelings as we look forward to tomorrow night -- the splashdown?

HARIDOPOLOS: Well first, you can see the smile on my face. This is the space industry coming back. Remember, the president created the Space Force and more recently he appointed Jared Isaacman as the head of NASA. You've seen a dynamic shift here -- the energy, the enthusiasm happening.

And it's not just the tourist mission; this is a long-term venture for the United States to make sure we are space dominant. Of course, you know, there are a lot of materials on the moon -- most importantly, helium-3, let alone hydrogen and oxygen because there's water on the moon that will eventually propel us to Mars.

And as you know, with these military conflicts, we need GPS technology, satellite dominance, and this is why the space industry is so important to our country as you make new innovations --

BERMAN: Um-hum.

HARIDOPOLOS: -- including the technology you and I are using right now.

[07:35:03]

BERMAN: Congressman, last question about the ballroom. Right now construction is halted at the White House.

But The New York Times reports this morning that "President Trump has championed the U.S. steel industry, promising to strengthen it and impose stiff tariffs on foreign metals to shield manufacturers from overseas competitors. Yet the White House has secured tens of millions of dollars' worth of donated foreign steel for the $400 million ballroom project." That's "according to two people familiar with the plans."

How do you feel about the new wing of the White House being built with foreign steel?

HARIDOPOLOS: Well, that's news to me, John. That's breaking news. I have not heard that.

Obviously, we want to use American steel. America has really strengthened its economic power recently because you're seeing so much foreign investment happening here. Let's hope they use American steel. That would make common sense to me.

BERMAN: All right, Congressman Mike Haridopolos from Florida. I hope you enjoy the next 24 hours or so watching this splashdown. I know it means so much to you -- really, and the people of the country. Thank you -- Kate.

KATE BOLDUAN, CNN ANCHOR: Thanks, J.B.

This morning attorneys for Sean Combs will be back in court. They are now arguing that he should be released from prison immediately and his prostitution-related conviction overturned. The reason being they claim he was actually making amateur pornography, which they say is protected by the First Amendment.

Combs was convicted last year you'll remember on two counts of transportation to engage in prostitution. He was cleared of the more serious charges, sex trafficking and racketeering. Prosecutors are calling his legal team's new argument meritless. Combs is right now expected to be released from prison in April of 2028.

But let's talk about this. Joining me right now is CNN legal analyst Joey Jackson with more on this. Thanks for being here, Joey.

So he's served I believe about 14 months of his 50-month sentence so far. His team in this new argument trying to say that he was making amateur porn and so he shouldn't be charged with or convicted of anything.

What do you make of this?

JOEY JACKSON, CNN LEGAL ANALYST, CRIMINAL DEFENSE ATTORNEY, FORMER PROSECUTOR: So it actually is a good argument, quite frankly. And so understand that what they're doing Kate -- the lawyers for Diddy are challenging -- really, they're challenging two things. One is the conviction itself --

BOLDUAN: Um-hum.

JACKSON: -- that we're talking about now, and the other is the sentence.

But on the issue of the conviction what they're saying is listen, the jury said that he was not this racketeer of this enterprise. He wasn't engaging in all this illegal activity for purposes of engaging in sex. He wasn't running a criminal enterprise. They said no as to that. They said no as to him coercing or engaging in fraudulent behavior to engage in sexual activity. They said no.

What did they convict him of? They convicted him of crossing state lines for purposes of engaging in essentially a Mann Act -- immoral activity which the courts have held that deal with any sexually related that is a crime. Now, let's start there.

So what -- if you're convicting him of that as it relates to Cassie, his ex-girlfriend, and someone known as Jane, what the attorneys are arguing is that he was essentially convicted of something that was non-commercial.

This was private activity. He wasn't profiting at all. They were engaged in voyeurism. They were choreographing these escapades. People were dressed up in costumes. It was being filmed. And essentially, it's amateur pornography. So to that extent it's First Amendment- protected activity.

So if you look not at the totality of the trial --

BOLDUAN: Um-hum.

JACKSON: -- but just what he was convicted of the attorneys are saying that this is First Amendment protected and he should not at all be in.

Now, of course, prosecutors say if you do that every brothel in the country will say hey, we're engaging in constitutional-protected activity. You can't go after us.

And so it's a slippery slope but I think it's an argument that's viable on these facts.

BOLDUAN: Interesting.

Let's talk about the other piece of this then. The defense team also has issues with how the judge came up with the sentence. So I'm trying to -- I want to make sure I get this right. They say that he did not decide a sentence based on the jury's verdict but instead that he took into account the other charges that he was acquitted of in coming up with the sentence.

What do you think of this?

JACKSON: You did a great job.

BOLDUAN: Whoo.

JACKSON: That's exactly right.

So what happens Kate is this -- is that, you know, it's kind of murky and I'll tell you why. Because you get to decide if you're a judge what conduct can I consider in your sentence that is relevant to your conviction, but you're not supposed to consider conduct that I've been acquitted of. So how do you distinguish between conduct that --

BOLDUAN: Oh, yeah.

JACKSON: -- I've been acquitted of but that's relevant to my conviction? And the Supreme Court lately has decided that look, you guys better figure it out.

And let me just say this. The commission that deals with these sentences has come up with a prohibition that has said to these judges you're not to consider conduct you're acquitted of. But the judge in pronouncing sentence here said hey, I'm going to consider the fact that you engaged in physical and psychological abuse over the, you know, time that you were --

BOLDUAN: Um-hum.

[07:40:00]

JACKSON: -- doing this activity. That's very much what he was acquitted of. Why? Because if you look at the sex trafficking it involves fraud and it involves coercion, and it involves all that activity for which he was actually acquitted. So did this judge consider acquitted conduct, terming it relevant conduct and thereby giving him the 50 months.

Now just to be clear, very quickly, Kate, he dodged a bullet here. This was a tremendous win for the defense. Prosecutors wanted 11 years and change. Probation, which judges generally follow, wanted six to eight years. His legal team, of course, wanted 14 months. The judge came up with 50 months. We do it in the federal kind of thing. It's months, not years.

BOLDUAN: Exactly.

JACKSON: But -- so ultimately -- but even though he ended up with 50 months, which is very good, they're alleging you shouldn't have got there because Mann Act violations, which are these traveling across state line --

BOLDUAN: Um-hum.

JACKSON: -- for immoral purposes -- anything illegal sexually -- generally are four times less, attorneys are saying, than what he got.

BOLDUAN: Hmm.

JACKSON: So, no -- we're talking a little math today.

BOLDUAN: No. I'm -- I actually -- this is very, very interesting.

JACKSON: Yeah.

BOLDUAN: And the line -- or it can -- relevant behavior be walled off from acquitted behavior --

JACKSON: Exactly.

BOLDUAN: -- in this -- in this realm is very interesting.

It's good to see you.

JACKSON: Murky.

BOLDUAN: Murky, but you clear everything up.

JACKSON: Thank you, Kate.

BOLDUAN: John.

BERMAN: All right, we were just talking about it with the congressman from Florida. We are nearing splashdown or at least the countdown to it. Artemis II crew -- they're getting ready for a big day, preparing for reentry tomorrow.

Let's get right to CNN's Randi Kaye for the latest on this. So how will this all work, Randi?

RANDI KAYE, CNN NATIONAL CORRESPONDENT: Good morning, John.

They are making their last-minute preps for reentry and splashdown. Today they'll do one final burn to make sure that their path is correct -- one final trajectory adjustment. And then they will also just reset the cabin -- the capsule for reentry and make sure everything is stowed safely and they are ready to go.

Splashdown is expected to be about 8:00 p.m. Eastern time tomorrow night off the coast of San Diego. And this really is one of the trickiest maneuvers of this mission.

In fact, our -- CNN's Jackie Wattles was able to ask Victor Glover, the pilot of this mission, just how that is going to go, and here is what he said.

(BEGIN VIDEO CLIP)

VICTOR GLOVER, PILOT, ARTEMIS II: I'll be honest and say I've actually been thinking about entry since April 3, 2023, when we got assigned to this mission. At one of the first press conferences we were asked what are we looking forward to, and I said splashdown.

And it's kind of humorous but it's literal as well that we have to get back. There's so much data that you've seen already but all the good stuff is coming back with us. There's so many more pictures, so many more stories.

And gosh, I haven't even begun to process what we've been through, and we've still got two more days. And riding a fireball through the atmosphere is profound as well.

So I have to answer that question later. I am not sure. But I can tell you it's a lot and lifelong memories. I'm going to be thinking about and talking about all of these things for the rest of my life for sure.

(END VIDEO CLIP)

KAYE: That was at a press conference with the media late last night.

And if you're wondering why this is sort of like a fireball, as he put it, it's because they are coming in at 30 times the speed of sound, John, and the temperature outside that capsule could reach up to 5,000 degrees Fahrenheit. So this is a very tricky mission, as I said -- a tricky reentry. And they certainly are going to be putting the heat shield that's on the Orion capsule to the test, but NASA is certainly expressing confidence, John.

BERMAN: Yeah, he really is not sugarcoating it. Riding a fireball through the atmosphere, he says with a smile. I like the attitude there.

Randi Kaye, great to see you. Thank you very much.

BOLDUAN: Wait. Those details were crazy.

BERMAN: Yeah.

BOLDUAN: Thirty -- what did she say? Thirty times the speed of sound?

BERMAN: And like 5,000 degrees, which is hotter --

BOLDUAN: One bajillion --

BERMAN: -- than even this studio --

BOLDUAN: Yeah.

BERMAN: -- which you make it.

BOLDUAN: I am not behind this, and it's still chilly.

Let's move on to this. New overnight a verdict in the trial of the man in Hawaii accused of and on trial for, obviously, trying to kill his wife while they were on a hike. Watch this.

(BEGIN VIDEO CLIP)

JUDGE BEVANNE J. BOWERS, MAUI COUNTY PER DIEM JUDGE: We, the jury in this case, finds the defendant guilty of attempted manslaughter based upon extreme mental or emotional disturbance.

(END VIDEO CLIP)

BOLDUAN: You could see there the defendant, Gerhardt Konig's reaction. The jury deliberated for one day. They did not convict him on a higher charge of second-degree attempted murder. He will be sentenced on August 13. He's facing up to 20 years in prison.

Now, prosecutors said Konig tried to push his wife off a cliff during a birthday hiking trip a year ago. When that failed he then, they allege, tried to stab her with a syringe and then hit her -- and then hit her in the head with a rock. The attack was actually interrupted by two other hikers. You're seeing some video here. Two other hikers who heard her cries for help.

[07:45:00]

Konig's attorney says that he will appeal the verdict.

Coming up for us an alligator shows up to a Florida home at 3:00 in the morning, clearly, for a pool party.

(BEGIN VIDEO CLIP)

UNIDENTIFIED MALE: So he'll just frolic around and then wear himself out?

UNIDENTIFIED MALE: Yeah. Let him burn some of that energy off.

(END VIDEO CLIP)

BOLDUAN: And did you know that Kara Swisher wants to live forever? And she is here with us today -- yes, I promise you that is the one and only Kara Swisher -- to show us how, and does all of this red light therapy mask nonsense -- does it actually work?

We'll be right back.

(COMMERCIAL)

[07:50:00] BERMAN: New this morning a first look at the brand new CNN original series that premieres this Saturday night -- "KARA SWISHER WANTS TO LIVE FOREVER." And it takes a deep dive into the booming longevity industry going beyond the hype and looking at the science of antiaging. Here's a preview.

(BEGIN VIDEO CLIP)

KARA SWISHER, CNN CONTRIBUTOR, AWARD-WINNING JOURNALIST: Thank you.

UNIDENTIFIED MALE: What is that?

SWISHER: This is a red light mask. See, look -- red lights. Allegedly it will make you look like a baby (PH). It can go anywhere from just 50 bucks or less to thousands of dollars.

I feel ridiculous. It's weird.

SWISHER (voiceover): But forget this strange and somewhat scary mask. I'm going for the full-body red light experience with my guide Amy.

SWISHER: This looks like another scary coffin-like situation. What's with the coffin? Whoa! Oh!

AMY ENTELIS, EXECUTIVE VICE PRESIDENT OF TALENT, CNN ORIGINALS, CREATIVE DEVELOPMENT FOR CNN WORLDWIDE: I've got to get my goggles on.

SWISHER: Oh, wow. We would presumably be naked but thankfully, we're not at this moment.

ENTELIS: Yeah. I mean, maybe look in your underpants or something.

SWISHER: Right.

ENTELIS: Are you comfy?

SWISHER: I feel like I'm in a -- like an air fryer, but sure -- yeah.

(END VIDEO CLIP)

BERMAN: With us now is journalist and CNN contributor, Kara Swisher. I guess this is the first day of the rest of your eternal life?

SWISHER: Apparently, apparently. No, I've been at it for a year doing this reporting on this and finding out what's happening and the real things that are happening. That was just a lot of fun, and I do a lot of stunts like that and try all the weird things because there's so much hype in the longevity space.

BERMAN: Are you living forever now?

SWISHER: No. I don't want to live forever -- no, no. No one's living forever. There's no -- there's no way out of this. There's a way out of this life and we're all taking the same exit.

BERMAN: So how does just the mask -- and we're going to try these on in a second --

SWISHER: Yes.

BERMAN: -- and previewing this. We will wear these.

SWISHER: All right.

BERMAN: How does this differ from the full immersive experience?

SWISHER: I don't know. You know, a lot of this stuff -- there's some science around red light but it's still unclear. And -- but my issue with this is the amount of money people are spending on this stuff and promises it makes. And so they overpromise and underdeliver when the science is still unclear. For womb healing --

Very nice. You look attractive. And for -- you know, if you were going out on Halloween and terrorizing children that would work really well.

But in this case -- in this case (laughing) -- sorry. In this case you -- it's fine. It's just -- it doesn't deliver what everybody says it's going to deliver. And there's a lot of this kind of staff happening in this space.

You're freaking me out.

BERMAN: Well, it looks like I could be in "Eyes Wide Shut."

SWISHER: I know. It's true. Oh, that's where you go, John.

BERMAN: No, no.

SWISHER: OK. I went to Halloween and children, and you went to "Eyes Wide Shut." Let's take a moment.

BERMAN: I think it was a whole season of "SITUATION ROOM" where Wolf wore this.

Look, but what is it literally --

SWISHER: You literally are going to keep it on. Fine. I like it.

BERMAN: What's it supposed to do to my skin?

SWISHER: It's supposed to make you look like a child again. Like essentially to give your skin and give you treatments. It's unclear. The science is unclear. There's a lot of stuff around wound healing. When you have brain injuries there's some ideas around it. It helps plants grow better because of mitochondrial issues in space. NASA kind of discovered that.

But wound healing is really what it is and now it's been shifted because this hype industry, especially online, has made it like a solution for everything. And that's the problem -- that people are spending enormous amounts of money on things that have questionable scientific improvements.

BERMAN: You wore this for a long time.

SWISHER: Yeah.

BERMAN: You talked to a lot of people. Was there anything -- or of all the things you looked at, what do you have some hope for or what did you hope for?

SWISHER: Well, there's a couple -- in the science area GLP-1s are really interesting in what's happening and there's lot of developments not just for weight loss but, you know, obviously people with diabetes have used it for many years but -- and weight loss. But around obesity, around strokes, around heart issues. There's possible cognitive things. So there needs to be a lot more testing but it seems to be pretty amazing.

mRNA technology, astonishing despite the politization of it. There's so much going on there. AI and cancer research. AI and a number of things. Mobility, robotics. It's really interesting and going places.

What's not happening is the ability for people to get general health care, and that's the real problem in this country. And someone said what are the two things for longevity -- for real longevity for all of us and not just for the rich dudes who can do whatever they want, like inject themselves with all manner of crap.

But is -- don't be poor because poverty really does -- is an indicator of longevity. Don't live in places that are more -- you know, possibility of all manner of things or -- and not having the right food.

The second thing is friends and family. There's a lot of scientific evidence to prove that the more time we spend online the less long we're going to live and in a less good way. And being around people -- there's also like the Harvard Happiness Study. That is the primary indicator of longevity is friends, family, and the ability to try new things and interact with other people.

BERMAN: It really is the friends you make along the way.

SWISHER: Exactly, absolutely.

BERMAN: The key to --

SWISHER: But don't wear this to your friends.

BERMAN: I'm never putting this on again.

SWISHER: OK.

BERMAN: There's already viewer emails complaining.

But it is so interesting. You talk about making it accessible to regular people because so much of this is in another world that you cover so closely. It is the rich tech dudes.

[07:55:00] SWISHER: That is right. That's who been pushing and actually doing huge investments, whether it's Sam Altman or Larry Ellison or Elon Musk. Larry has a whole institute of antiaging essentially. But they're all making different investments because they themselves, I think, are hoping to live forever.

BERMAN: I can't wait to see the whole series. Kara Swisher, I think it sounds fun and really interesting --

SWISHER: It is, yeah.

BERMAN: -- and we're going to learn so much.

SWISHER: There's some great reporting and that's what's critical. You have really amazing people like Jennifer Doudna and all these experts. So that's what's important.

BERMAN: Thanks for waking up. Waking up this early, by the way, not helpful --

SWISHER: Yes, now you're up.

BERMAN: -- for a long life. But thank you.

SWISHER: You look so much younger right now.

BERMAN: Well, there's a whole room -- a whole makeup room, like, dedicated to making me look younger so I don't need this.

Thank you very much.

The CNN original series "KARA SWISHER WANTS TO LIVE FOREVER" premieres Saturday at 9:00 p.m. Eastern only on CNN -- Kate.

BOLDUAN: Thank you, sir.

Nothing says Florida like finding a gator in your swimming pool.

(BEGIN VIDEO CLIP)

UNIDENTIFIED MALE: He's right there. He's huge.

(Splashing)

(END VIDEO CLIP)

BOLDUAN: A nearly 10-foot-long alligator broke into a Tampa pool in the middle of the night casually going for a swim -- how dare he or she -- before the homeowners called police. Eventually they were able to -- I mean, that's what you do. You kind of lasso it with that little device -- and ended his pool party.

(BEGIN VIDEO CLIP)

UNIDENTIFIED MALE: Ready? One, two, three. One, two, three. One, two, three. One, two, three. (END VIDEO CLIP)

BOLDUAN: You've got to imagine that thing is heavy.

There's also this. A miner who was trapped for nearly two weeks following a mine collapse in Mexico has now been rescued. Video shows the moment that rescuers reached him shirtless and in waist-deep water. He's now receiving medical care.

Authorities say what happened was the collapse was caused by a structural failure that triggered a dam breach that then flooded the mine. There were 25 miners trapped in all. Officials say one person is still missing, one has died, and the rest were able to make it out alive.

And here is a question for you. Would you like to buy a piece of the Eiffel Tower? Here is the deal. Part of the tower's original spiral staircase will be auctioned off next month.

The staircase stands nine feet tall. It has 14 steps in case you were interested. It connect -- it connected the second and third levels of the tower when it first opened in 1889. It was later removed during renovations about 100 years later.

Only a limited number of the staircase sections exist and they're in museums and private collections.

So here's your chance, guys, but you're going to have to pony up for this little piece of history. The estimates are that it's going to go for up to $175,000. The auction is scheduled to take place in Paris next month -- Jonathan.

BERMAN: You could combine it with Andy Scholes' garden gnome from The Masters. Like, if you have enough money --

BOLDUAN: One billion dollars.

BERMAN: -- you could put the gnome on the stairs.

BOLDUAN: Well, see, I was saying earlier today it's like functional art. A little like if you have enough ceilings.

BERMAN: If you have high ceilings and gnomes -- all right.

Major new developments this morning in the disappearance of a Michigan woman in the Bahamas. Authorities say her husband is now under arrest.

I want to get right to CNN's Dianne Gallagher who has been covering this story. So have charges been announced, Dianne?

DIANNE GALLAGER, CNN NATIONAL CORRESPONDENT: So no charges have been filed at this time, John. And it is important to note that we don't know exactly what led Bahamian authorities to take Brian Hooker into custody days after he reported that his wife had fallen overboard from their dinghy on Saturday night in rough waters. Now, the Royal Bahamas Police did not actually identify the American man who they say is currently being questioned but an attorney for Brian Hooker confirmed that it is him. In a statement the attorney said that Brian "categorically and unequivocally denies any wrongdoing," adding that "He has been cooperating with the relevant authorities as part of an ongoing investigation."

Now the announcement of the arrest came just hours after the U.S. Coast Guard said that it had opened a criminal investigation into Lynette Hooker's disappearance. On Wednesday, Coast Guard Detroit sector investigators spent about two hours interviewing Lynette's daughter, Karli Aylesworth. An attorney for Aylesworth sent a statement to CNN just a few moments ago that noted that they actually started to feel better about getting some answers because that's all they really want here once the Coast Guard got involved.

I just want to read you something that they just sent in saying, "After learning of the arrest last night, it appears this matter is getting the attention it deserves. The events as initially reported just did not seem to add up."

Now, Aylesworth said as much to CNN on Tuesday herself. Take a listen.

(BEGIN VIDEO CLIP)

KARLIE AYLESWORTH, LYNETTE HOOKER'S DAUGHTER: It just doesn't add up why she was swimming away from the boat or why she had the keys. I have known past issues between them have not been good so it's just weird that this is happening now.

(END VIDEO CLIP)
