all right. you all didn't think sanjay and -- >> surprise. >> this is cnn saturday morning. first day of may. good morning to you all. i'm tj holmes. >> i'm brooke. >> clifton, arkansas, suspected tornado ripped through the city overnight. we have new pictures showing us the damage.

at least two dozen buildings damaged. at least, one person dead. reportedly, as well. you might have seen that fire truck tucked in under there. we have live reporters out and our people here in the severe weather center keeping eye on still other doing you weather. checking in with them in a moment. and reynolds wolf covering the massive oil spill. guess who's been talking about it? you got, the president. mr. obama expected to head to the site of the oil spill sometime this weekend. it's spilling 200,000 gallons of oil every day there into the gulf of mexico. 400,000 species of wildlife will be impacted. we'll look at how close to the shore the oil is now and how much to cost to contain. one story from overnight, a sheriff's departmentdy in arizona recovering after being shot by a suspected illegal immigrant. now, the officer is expected to

be okay. going to pull through just fine. he was on a routine patrol and came across bales of marijuana out in the desert. there was a frantic hour-long search to find him after it was phoned in he was shot. this comes as illegal immigrants possibly shooting the man after the controversial new state law put in place allowing police to check the residency status of suspects. we know president obama will not be testifying in an upcoming corruption trial of former illinois governor rod blagojevich. federal judge has now refused to issue a subpoena. the judge says he might reconsider if evidence suggests president obama might have something relevant to tell the jury. jury selection begins the 3rd of june. we know the president said he wants to repeal the don't ask, don't tell policy for the military but the defense secretary said that congress should leave don't ask, don't tell alone. well, leave it alone for now. at least until they can complete a pentagon review.

that review would help them figure out how repealing the law affects service members. the white house and the president support gates' decision joirks well, this time last weekend we were sitting here talking tornadoes. texas last weekend. this weekend, severe weather happening in arkansas. people just waking up. they'll have a chance to assess the damage this morning but more strong storms could be happening there today. >> we'll get the forecast coming up but what happened in van buren county, the northern central part of the state. at least one person dead. another ten are hurt after the suspected tornado touched down. deputies now saying that the tree, power lines are down. 25 homes at least took some pretty serious damage. you are looking at the latest video. storm victims are talking about it, as well. >> it was crazy. i was on the phone with him telling him that we were under a tornado warning and i no sooner got that out of my mouth and heard it coming and said i have

to go. jumped in my closet and just -- i don't know. the first thing out of my mouth was just, lord, protect me. that was all i could do. all i could say. >> well, noise was so loud we couldn't hear nothing and we was in the storm cellar. had to hold the door shut and just we're blessed. >> watch for central and eastern arkansas with parts of missouri, oklahoma and texas expired last hour but still some more serious storms could be on the way for later today. and when we talk about possibly more serious storms later today, what might that mean and translate for people in arkansas and the rest of the midwest area? let's go to bonnie schneider keeping an eye on the watches what, now, just now expired, right, bonnie? >> we have some very strong storms happening right now. thunderstorms, frequent lightning strikes from kentucky into ohio and indiana so the

tornado watches have been extended all the way to the noon hour. and i'm expected them to continue even further than that. watches include kentucky, including louisville, bowling green, richmond, as well. much of tennessee and unfortunately the same part of mississippi that was hit last weekend by the tornadoes is now under a tornado watch, as well. so that's northwestern mississippi. including the city of tupelo. memphis, tennessee, under a tornado watch as is nashville. this is a very serious situation. we have a powerful line of thunderstorms rolling through tennessee right now. frequent lightning strikes. very large-sized hail and heavy downpours of rain are part of the system and not just in the south but the midwest is hit hard, as well. heavy rain and thunderstorms across indiana and ohio and into michigan at this time. seeing stronger downpours, as well, into the memphis, tennessee, area. teeming in terms of rain. along i-40 if you're driving towards jackson between memphis

and nashville and seeing heavy downpours. just to let you know today, of course, we are tracking everything happening with the oil spill and also tracking severe weather. this is going to be another big day i think for severe weather in terms of possibly damaging winds, maybe tornadoes and also heavy downpours of rain. so here's the way it shapes up. we have warm air coming up from the south and this region here in the senor out country with texas, louisiana, arkansas, arkansas once again even after tornadoes last night and up into tennessee and missouri will be facing a threat for severe weather today. so, happening right now, we have multiple tornado watches. it's a serious situation. i recommend if you don't have to travel right now, stay inside until the threat for severe weather passes because it will be worse this morning and this afternoon. back to you. >> all right. thank you so much. >> thanks. bonnie mentioned this massive oil spill and really the urgency really ratcheted up in terms of containing it, cleaning

it up. the widen of the spill in the gulf of mexico bleeds crude petroleum and threatens a potential ecological disaster. >> four states have declared a state of emergency. those states louisiana, alabama, mississippi and florida. let's give you the very latest we now know. estimated 1.6 million gallons already spilled from that ruptured well and it's spitting out oil at 210,000 gallons a day. the created slick is about 130 miles wide. to give you perspective, that's about the distance to drive from d.c. to philadelphia. also 70 miles long. the u.s. defense secretary robert gates approved louisiana governor's request to mobilize 6,000 national guard troops in response to the oil spill. the weather, the winds in particular, crucial part of this unfolding situation down there. let's go to reynolds wolf down there covering this oil slick

and disaster. we're expecting possibly the oil to make it to the coast yesterday at some time. do we know for sure whether or not that oil made it to land? >> no direct confirmations as of yet, tj. we have gone out on boats and looked around. there's reports that oily sheen referring to as a rain bow effect on the water. we have heard that made contact also with the shoreline and no confirmation of that happening just yet. i'll pick up with something you left off and bonnie mentioned for viewers at home. we have photo journalist steve. stay put for a moment. let me show you something. where the camera is, you're actually towards the north. i'm toward the south. i'm going to let the grass go. i have a strong breeze from the south and with that wind behind me with the gulf of mexico at the back, that is a transferring mechanism to push that oil

closer to the shoreline. that's one of the big keys. however, in this particular area in venice and the mississippi delta, you have the flow of the mississippi river across the continent from way up towards minneapolis, past st. louis and then new orleans and then this area. you have the wind, oil in one direction. the mighty mississippi the opposite direction. so it's a very good chance the contrasting forces, may see oil spread out along alabama and florida. we still think it's going to affect here and may not be as great as we originally anticipated. however, you still had to be on your guard. to my back, the delta national wildlife refuge. one of ten in the region. something that the governor jind l jindal is extremely concerned about. here's what the governor had to say. >> it is going to have an impact on our coastal ecosystems. that's going to impact the

fisheries, bird population. potentially. going to have an impact on the populated areas, as well. >> reporter: ni don't want to give a false sense of security. the oil can come close and very vulnerable to this. what they have done is already put out about 217,000 feet of that protectedive boom. nearly 300,000 additional feet to possibly deploy in the coming days and it is not just for this region, guys. we are talking about places around the gulf coast. mississippi, alabama, into florida. there have been reports of people being able to smell, smell the oil from these great distances. and i can tell you, right now that the parrish president billy noneguesser saying it takes maximum effort to combat the oil. >> as the oil comes ashore, we'll set different crews out there with the support of bp.

we are working together with them and the coast guard to make sure we can get as much absorbent material to catch it as it hits the marsh and minimize the damage to the marsh. >> reporter: perhaps the biggest victim so far, the wildlife. you have plenty of birds in the middle of the gulf. you are going to see video brought in from wwl. this is the northern gwinnett bird. it is a diving fish-eating bird. this particular bird was actually caught by some of the people working out in the gulf trying to hamper the flow of the oil. it was actually brought in to a bird recovery area here in venice, a place sponsored by bp, sponsoring this to help the bird recover and takes seven to ten days, seven to ten days before this bird may be released. now, one more thing to mention. with some of the wildlife areas to the south, some places,

especially the delta wildlife refuge, that's a place that's home to some 400 different species of animals eng da s endr protective. let's send it back the you. >> that bird you mentioned, saw the video, the first picked up an they expect possibly many, many more. hope not but that was just the first. reynolds, we appreciate that report. we'll be checking in with you throughout the morning. thanks so much. >> talking to an environmentalist about that later this morning. this spill generating a federal response. the president himself saying he is considering a visit to the oil spill site near the coast as early as tomorrow. now, the details still being worked out but white house administration officials say mr. obama will visit the area because of its national significance and really as we mentioned the threat, to the environment that it poses, yesterday had the president pledging federal support to the victims of this oil spill.

>> bp is ultimately responsible under the law for paying the costs of response and cleanup operations. but we are fully prepared to meet our responsibilities to any and all affected communities. >> now, the president cannot visit the oil spill region today because he is giving the commencement speech at the university of michigan. from florida to texas, we are seeing at least 30-plus lawsuits filed against bp and transocean, the contractor that owns that oil rig that exploded. beachfront property owners, fishermen, shrimpers are asked to join in on the lawsuits. experts say the oil pollution act of 1990 would hold bp responsible for the spill since it was their oil and responsible for paying the cleanup. bp's ceo pointing the finger at the owner of the rig. >> responsibility for safety on the drilling rig is with transocean. it is their rig.

their equipment. their people. their systems. their safety processes. >> now, the company that he was saying that owns the rig there is not commenting on the matter saying they're not commenting on pending lawsuits. the cost of the gulf oil spill is racking up. bp says cleanup costs currently running at $6 million a day. another estimate out says that the cleanup and lawsuits could possibly cost the company some $3 billion. keep this in mind, though. bp reported $6 billion in profits in the first three months of this year. check your calendars. today, may 1st. may day. day of significance for a lot of workers across the country because thousands of people are planning to protest the arizona law. critics not so impressed. as many as 14 cities here are planning these kinds of rallies today. now, state officials we need to

mention here did make some tweaks to the bill yesterday saying the changes should ease earlier concerns about racial profiling. so under this new bill, law enforcement officers can only check on a suspect's immigration status if he or she stops a suspect, calling it a lawful stop, for that cause. of course, we all know you're supposed to listen to the police and follow their instructions. >> right. but one guy didn't exactly do that and you could say he's feeling the affects of that decision. >> don't mess with that. put it back up there. get up. >> get this, though. the officer says the man provoked him. hear what he says provoked that slap. i want to be a volunteer firefighter. when i grow up, i want to write a novel. i want to go on a road trip. when i grow up, i'm going to go there. i'm going to work with kids.

four democratic senators got a lot on their plate up there in capitol hill, of course, but now they're taking on facebook. they're concerned about the privacy policies on that

website. >> you have a facebook profile. >> yes. >> i do, too. what are they concerned about and how do you protect your information on facebook? we turn to josh levs. >> to understand what the senators are upset about with facebook, what you first need to understand is that facebook in recent days made a series of changes. now, one of the changes you see is a lot of websites including cnn.com have a plug-in. if you signed in to facebook and get to a website, you will instantly see some of what your friends are up to, what you are up to. easier to recommend pages. that's all over the internet and places right now. that is not the thing that the senators are pointing to. instead, they're pointing to something else. facebook hooked up with three specific websites. one is called yelp with shopping and restaurant reviews and docs and pandora, an online radio. what happens there, if you've signed in to facebook, it automatically pulls some

information and facebook points out they gave them instant access to some information that facebook says is publicly available. your friends, your profile. this is what some senators are upset about including senator chuck schumer. here's what he said. >> we believe facebook should reverse its policy that so users have to opt in to sharing data rather than opt out and this would ensure that the default setting for all users is that their information is kept private. with the current system, the upfront disclosure of what's happening with your personal information is confusing at best. the onus here should be on facebook. not on the user. >> facebook responded to this. i want as you a the see what they said. they said our highest priority is to keep and build the trust of more than 400 million people who use our service. these new products an features are designed to promote social activity across the internet while continuing to give users unprecedented control over what information they share, when they want to share it and with

negligence was a factor in that explosion. you could get a knock on your door today from someone just looking to count heads in your house. census workers supposed to be on the streets today to finish the count for those of you that did not mail in your census forms. but there's a little bit of a problem here. the computer system that's needed to coordinate the whole door to door count, it has a problem. and the system is prone to crashing. that's not good. about 63% of households across the country have sent back their census forms.

rod blagojevich. the judge could reconsider if any evidence in the trial implicates the president, the former governor is accused of trying to sell or trade the senate seat left behind by senator obama. jury selection begins june 3rd. >> defense secretary gates is warning congress not to change the policy of gays serving in the military. he doesn't want them to change it at least until a pentagon review is done and showing what impact it would have on the force if, in fact, they did away with don't ask, don't tell. the white house supporting the pentagon review also says president obama is committed to repealing don't ask, don't tell. advocates of repealing the law saying the military view is not necessary. severe weather roared through arkansas last night. one person killed but it wasn't as deadly at first thought. officials revising the casualty count from a suspected tornado that touched dmoun van buren county where officials say one

i know the windy weather down there and the choppily waet, that cannot be helping the cleanup. >> no. absolutely right. we have wind coming up from the south and they're windy. some gusts as high as 30 miles per hour. sustained winds 20 to 25 miles per hour. that only enhances the flow coming in from the gulf and the waves and, unfortunately, kicks up the oil spill bringing it into the areas along the gulf coast. here's the louisiana coastline and the oil spill located. right now the winds from the south-southeast. we are anticipating some changes, though, in the winds and where the oil slick likely headed. a look at the satellite perspective is fascinating. see the slick right here. almost a "s" shape line down and coast to the louisiana coastline. we don't have people in the areas here with estuaries and marshes but a lot of wildlife lives there and that's a fine, very fine coat of oil right along the surface and affects so many animals in the water, even

right now. in fact, some of the mammals affected are whales and dr. gregory bossart from the georgia aquarium here in atlanta talks about how the animals are affected. >> this is a big feeding area. we know there are dolphins in this area. marine mammals breathe right at the air-interface and where a lot of volatile gases are from the oil slick so when they breathe, they actually inhale the gases which are extremely toxic to the lungs. >> and it's not just the whale that is are affected. you have also tiny sea creatures like shrink, mussels, crab and the plankton that the larger fish feed on affected by areas covered with oil very soon, in fact. here's where the slick is located here on the end of the mississippi delta here in louisiana but we are anticipating with the flow of wind for areas a little bit further to the north and east affected in mississippi.

mixed together but we have a reporter there live on the line and setting the scene here with you got, of course, some people come out for may day anyway and other groups, workers' unions, using thedy and the opportunity, as well, to let the voices be heard. and not necessarily all peaceful out there on the streets of athens. >> reporter: it is certainly not all peaceful, tj. that's right. we are in amongst clouds of teargas and seen fires. there have been scuffles really within the last 45 minutes. as you say, there are basically two groups here. there are -- it is international labor day so the opportunity for workers and workers' unions to come out and protest for their rights and here in greece that's particularly acute right now because of the new austairy measures. they'll have the salaries cut and taxes hiked so the cost of living is going to go up an

enormous amount for people here but then added to those you have the kind of radical elements, the black bloc, who have basically used this as an opportunity to scuffle with police for a bit of a fight and they're the ones leading the kind of ground swells of bottle throwings toward the police and they're the ones in the front lines effective when the teargas is thrown back. in front of us now, i'm seeing about 200 riot police who are basically monitoring the situation in the main constitution square as the workers go past with their banners up basically demonstrating against the measures. tj? >> you talked about a radical element that's out there and sounds like they're kind of leading the charge. would you call it's lated scuffles, isolated incidents or is this radical element, quite frankly, starting to rattle everybody to the point that larger crowds seem to be getting

into scuffles with police? >> larger crowds do get into scuffles because the radical elements, i mean, they're the same. they're the kind of younger, left wing blocs you see across europe in any kind of demonstrations or may da in berl berlin. you get them here. and they're really just looking for an opportunity to cause a fight. but they're here in large numbers, they're the ones who generally wear black. they cover their faces with black masks and generally seeing a camera try to make you stop filming or get rid of the camera. so that's the group we're talking about who are really leading the charge here but the workers are also getting inevitably involved in the clashes. >> all right. diana magnay on the streets of athens, thank you. we'll check in with you probably this morning. live picture here, demonstrations for the most part peaceful and again two different groups out there. this is international workers'

day. may day. happens every year. people go out and demonstrate or a family day for picnics and people in greece. greece is in the middle of a huge financial crisis, big debt crisis and going to be forced to make some serious decisions and tough decisions and serious cuts in budgets to affect a lot of workers and some of the workers' unions taking advantage of the day as diana magnay said to start scuffles and clashes with police on the streets of athens.

good morning, everybody. from the cnn center in atlanta, georgia, this is "cnn saturday morning" for the first day of may. i'm tj holmes. >> i'm brooke baldwin. >> 7:00 a.m. here in georgia. 6:00 a.m. in clinton, arkansas where they're cleaning up. a suspected tornado ripped through the city overnight. at least two dozen buildings damaged or destroyed. that's an a fire truck buried

there. risk for more tornadoes and other severe weather continues today. our bonnie schneider keeping an eye on the weather. a different look at the weather. affecting the cleanup effort in the gulf of mexico. the president is expected to head down to the area some point this weekend. this rig is spilling 200,000 gallons of oil every day and also an environmental impact. we're hearing more than 400 different kinds of wildlife will be impacted. we'll take a close look as to how close the oil now is to the shore and how much it will cost to contain it. we're going to start with headlines now including one out of arizona where a sheriff's deputy is recovering after being shot by a suspected illegal immigrant. the officer is expected to be just dpin. he's okay. he was out on patrol in the desert when he found bales of marijuana. then a shootout ensued between him and suspects. after an hour-long rescue effort in the desert, he was finally

found by the fellow officers. this dins r incident, of course, comes after the signing of the controversial state immigration law called one of the toughest in the country. a federal judge has now officially rejected the subpoena calling for president obama to testify at the former illinois governor rod blagojevich trial. but we're hearing that the judge might reconsider if there's evidence in the trial to implicate the president, former illinois governor accused of trying to sell or maybe trade that illinois senate seat by then -- left by then senator barack obama. the jury selection in this case starts the third of next month. of course, president obama has said he wants to repeal the don't ask, don't tell policy but the defense secretary robert gates says congress should leave it alone for now, at least. they want to wait until there's a pentagon review. that review would figure out how repealing that law would affect the service members. the white house says the president does support gates' position. all right. want to take you to arkansas now

where there's at least some good news if we can say that after the severe weather roared through the state last night. the tornado not as deadly as initially thought. officials are revising the casualty count from a suspected tornado that touched down last night in van buren county. the latest count we have is one fatality. according to officials. but ten more people are hurt after the suspected tornado touched down. but take a look at some of the damage with me. initially, casualty count wise they thought three people died. two dozen wounded. deputies say besides downed power lines, trees, a lot of homes took a hit. the threat exists today, as well. bonnie schneider keeping an eye on that threat today. bonnie, the same area? >> yes. >> in the warning zone today? >> it is incredible because arkansas hit hard with tornadic activity last night and now we're bracing for a high risk zone in arkansas today.

meaning, we have a greater than 15, possibly 30% chance of tornadoes within a 25-mile square radius. that is high. right now, we have severe weather hitting memphis, nashville, louisville. wet weather at churchill downs. tornado watches continuing right now. 9:00 a.m. central time. this one expires in kentucky and tennessee. we have alabama clipped in this one and mostly tennessee and mississippi. remember the tornadoes in yazoo city, last weekend? same places under the gun for more tornadic activity for today. and that does stretch backwards towards arkansas so arkansas's a place watching closely today for yet more severe weather. here's a look at the strong thunderstorms. notice the realtime frequent lightning strikes tracking here on cnn. see them memphis and nashville right now. as we head to the north, lots of rain and heavy downpours. is severe weather in detroit, toledo. affecting the midwest, as well. further southward we go and see

the rain coming up from arkansas, little rock. moving on into memphis. here's the spot for severe storms today and we are talking at a very good chance the upgrade from the severe storm center from moderate to high is unusual and it is for arkansas for today. so get the noaa weather radio ready f. you had the severe weather last night, you have it on. we are also tracking the weather affecting the gulf coast oil spill. >> el have more on that coming up. >> all right. bonnie, we appreciate you. we'll be checking in with you soon. with that oil spill as we mentioned, the choppy waters, windy water, that's bringing the oil closer to land and that oil spill in the gulf of mexico continues to leak crude petroleum and threatens massive potential ecological challenge along the u.s. gulf coast. >> louisiana, mississippi, alabama, florida. declared a state of emergency. let's give you the latest on what we now know.

according to the coast guard, estimated 1.6 million gallons spilled from the ruptured well, coming out at 210,000 gallons every day. the oil slick in the cluck, 130 miles wide, 70 miles long. the u.s. defense secretary robert gates approved louisiana's governor bobby jindal's request to mobilize 6,000 national guard troops in response to the spill. the weather, specifically the wind, is the problem right now. let's check in with our reynolds wolf. that was a great demonstration with the grass. you can see the wind coming from behind you from that water coming straight out and pushing that oil in the wrong direction. >> reporter: absolutely. we are going to make a little bit of homemade confetti right here. some of my notes. we do this from memory anyway. i'll hold it up towards the camera. look what happens. the wind is strong coming in out of the south and because of that wind we actually have some flood watches that are in effect for

the extreme southern part of louisiana and not due to the heavy rain. rain here is about 20% or so. much stronger, heavier rain fall to the north but in this particular area, the biggest threat we have weather wise is due to the strong wind. that wind is going to be very strong, possibly propelling the oil from much of the central gulf and pushing it close to land. when it's close to land, the places most vulnerable some of the wildlife refugees. just to our immediate south, we have the delta national wildlife refuge home to some 400 different species of animal that happen to be either protected or endangered and that's one place that's under the gun. that's one of ten that are scattered around parts of louisiana and mississippi. at this particular place, in venice, louisiana, it is very difficult for the oil to make it up right here where my feet happen to be and that's because of the strong current of the mississippi river working against that flow of oil. but still, right along the coast itself, those places will likely

receive some kind of oil, some kind of damage. those are the places so sensitive. places that governor bobby jindal really, really trying to protect. part of the protection measure is putting out 217,000 feet of protective boom. we are talking about that inflatable kind of barrier they put in the water and another 300,000 at the ready, plan to deploy later on today and it won't be just here, tj, but in many places around the gulf coast, back into mississippi, louisiana, alabama, of course, florida. trying to protect the people, of course, the economic aspects of who may be affected like the fishermen and the environment. we have a shot again of one of the birds that was plucked out of the gulf of mexico. this one happens to be a northern gwinnett. this amazing mammal is actually a migratory bird. flies from newfoundland and makes the diving, fish-eating bird. the very existence depends on

the clean water, getting the food out of the water and, of course, a situation like this, very detriment alto them. that particular bird is being treated here in venice, louisiana. it is at a rescue facility sponsored by bp and should be released in seven to ten days. back to you. >> those are always the saddest little pictures to see an animal covered in oil and see that after the oil spills. hopefully won't see much of that. thank you, reynolds. obviously, this oil spill bad news for the environment, bad news for certain parts of economy. as odd as this sounds, the spill is helping the local economy in some respects. why? take a look at some pictures with me. this is the scene in florida yesterday. hundreds of people lining up for cleanup-related jobs created by this oil spill. in fact, a texas-based company looking to hire as many as 500 people for jobs paying anywhere from $10 to $18 an hour.

today is may day. the day of significance for workers across the country and world. international workers' day. thousands of people are planning to mark it at rallies protesting the arizona immigration law. as many as 14 cities, new york, d.c. planning rallies today. state officials in arizona have actually tweaked the bill, they did that on friday saying the changes should ease earlier concerns about racial profiling. under this new bill now, at least the new changes, law enforcement officials can only check an immigration status after a suspect is stopped or arrested for a specific offense or crime. previously, the legislation was a little vague there and just said when an officer had made legal contact with a citizen. well, if you miss one cable bill payment or may be a few days late on rent, you assume it's not that big of a deal. >> you're not late, right? >> i am.
