1:01 am
hello and a warm welcome to our viewers joining us in the united states and around the world. i'm bianca nobilo. >> and i'm max foster. joining you live from london. just ahead on "cnn newsroom" -- >> ukrainian president volodymyr zelenskyy visiting washington, d.c. this week to try to make a personal and desperate plea for his country. >> ukraine is just a stepping stone for russia. >> special counsel jack smith is asking the supreme court to take up two constitutional questions in his election subversion trial against former president trump. >> they know this is a case that question has never been decided. >> israel says after two months of fighting it is still battling hamas in two different strongholds in northern gaza. >> the situation is very, very challenging.
1:02 am
live from london, this is "cnn newsroom" with max foster and bianca nobilo. >> it is tuesday, december 12, 9:00 a.m. in london and 4:00 a.m. in washington where the ukrainian president calls the d congressional deadlock a dream come true for vladimir putin. >> and later today volodymyr zelenskyy will try to sway u.s. republicans who are refusing to replenish the security assistance unless there are major policy changes on the southern u.s. border that democrats don't want. >> but barring a major breakthrough, congress will likely adjourn at the end of the this week without approving that needed security package. but mr. zelenskyy warned russia's aggression won't end in ukraine. >> russia is set on more than just ukraine's land.
1:03 am
resources. or our people. it won't be satisfied with just a part of ukraine or even all of it. ukraine is just a stepping stone for russia. >> the biden administration stressed that u.s. support for ukraine is so critical because it sends a key message to other countries and would-be in-varieds about what they can and can't get away with. mj lee reports. >> reporter: ukrainian president volodymyr zelenskyy visiting washington, d.c. to try to make a personal and desperate plea at such a critical juncture for his country. on tuesday, president zelenskyy will be visiting capitol hill first where he will be meeting with senators from both parties before he has a one-on-one meeting with the new house speaker, mike johnson. and then he heads over here to the white house for another meeting with president biden and then the two leaders will proceed to have a joint press conference.
1:04 am
of course zelenskyy is hoping that his visit here can break the impasse that we have seen on capitol hill over the issue of the billions of dollars in additional funding for ukraine that has been such a priority for the white house. but has in recent weeks become completely tangled up in the very fraught and complicated politics of immigration and border policy, what u.s. officials have been trying to warn for weeks is that time is up and there isn't another pool of money that the u.s. government can tap into. other officials have also told cnn that this is a situation where the world is watching including russian arepresident vladimir putin. and when the supplemental package didn't move forward last week, russian state media celebrated the news. and also that failure to continue to fund ukraine would send a bad message to any of the would-be aggressors that are paying close attention to all of
1:05 am
this. but at this moment the prospects of this additional funding getting approved before the end of the year looking very grim. mj lee, cnn, the white house. >> clare sebastian is following this for us. a tough argument for zelenskyy because he is making arguments about how effectively other countries in europe could be invaded and how this is not good for russia, but everyone in america, certainly those republicans, are focused on domestic issues. >> and this is a key problem because this is a next to impossible task. the core issue is not whether u.s. should continue to give aid to ukraine, the issue is whether it should be tied to border security. and so he has an opportunity here i think to build relationship, certainly i think the key meeting today is with speaker mike johnson who perhaps holding the most powerful key at all to unlocking aid for ukraine. while i don't think that he can expect to change his mind
1:06 am
overnight, building that relationship is key. and he will be attending an all senators meeting up on capitol hill. and with biden, we'll see the same rhetoric. that if they don't support ukraine, it can lead to other potential similar invasions in the future. but for zelenskyy, this is new, right? because he's done these trips before. this is his third trip to washington. he's never left empty-handed. this time last year he left with the promise of patriot missiles, now promised f-16s, the tanks, all these things. but if he goes back empty-handed -- >> which they will because they won't make a decision by the time he's gone. >> and it risks morale and like he is being used in the partisan politics and all coming in the big week where in the eu, they are expected to come to some kind of decision on whether they can start talks. and all the while russia is stepping up attacks as we get into winter. >> and just briefly, quite symbolic, a pretty seismic thing that you are say, a realistic
1:07 am
thing that the meeting with the house speakers is more important than the one with the president today. >> yeah, because the republicans are the ones who control the house, right? and they are standing in the way of more aid. so it is absolutely critical. i think zelenskyy will know that, he will bring out the same rhetoric that he has been doing. he says that ukraine is taking back 60% of the territory that russia took and they won in the black sea trying to reshape the narrative around the idea of a stalemate that is pervasive in washington. >> thank you, clare. special counselor overseeing the election subversion trial is asking the u.s. supreme court to decide whether the former president has immunity from prosecution for any alleged crimes that he committed while in office. >> trump's team argues any actions he may have taken over 2020 election results were part of his official duties as president. paula reid has the details. >> reporter: here jack smith is asking the supreme court to take
1:08 am
up two constitutional questions in the hope that they can resolve those and that his election subversion trial against former president trump can go ahead as scheduled on march 4. the supreme court weighing in tonight saying that they will get back to him soon. they are not saying that they are going to take up these questions immediately, but they have promised a prompt response. and look, timing is really the big issue here. the special counsel knows that these questions likely have to be resolved for this case to stay on track. and be on time ahead of the election next year. trump is litigating these issues as is his right, but that litigation can take a really long time to go through all the steps. you start at the district court where he lost, go to the ap appellate court, maybe the full appeal i can
1:09 am
ap appeal i supreme court. and so he says this is important that the voters understand what the case is before they vote next yeerk andar and so they wa supreme court to take up the case so they can move ahead in march. paula reid, cnn, washington. and our supreme court analyst says the request could be a push from the special counsel to have the supreme court make a landmark decision on a subject never before seen in u.s. politics. here is part of her conversation earlier with wolf blitzer. >> just think of the supreme court, this is a supreme court that managed to avoid a lot of the controversy during 2020. it rejected baseless claims from donald trump's allies about the election results. stay out of it. every case that is ever handled with donald trump, whether on his policy or on his personal tax dealings has always been fraught. so they are probably not looking at this with eagerness, but they know that this is a case that this question has never been
1:10 am
decided. and that was the point of jack smith's petition, that eventually the supreme court is going to have to decide if a former president or president can be immune from criminal prosecution for actions taken while in office, which is exactly what donald trump is asserting. so i think frankly that this is a really strong case that sxwrak smith has put forward and i think that it will get -- it is already getting attention and we'll probably know in a matter of weeks whether they grant this petition. >> donald trump has until december 20th to file a response to the petition. and rudy giuliani insists everything that he said about two former georgia election workers after the 2020 presidential race is true. >> giuliani is facing a defamation trial where a jury will determine how much he owes for the two women for damages. here is what he said after the first day of the trial. >> everything i said about them is true. >> do you regret what you did
1:11 am
to -- >> of course i don't regret. i told the truth. they were engaged in changing votes. >> there is no proof of that. >> you're damn right there is. stay tuned. >> the federal judge overseeing the case has already ruled that giuliani spread false information about the two women. jessica schneider has that story. >> it is disgraceful what happened. >> reporter: rudy giuliani spent days after the 2020 election falsely insisting that the results were rigged. >> i don't have to be a genius to figure out the votes are not legitimate. >> reporter: and in georgia, he focused on two unspecificing election workers. >> a tape of ruby and shea and one other gentleman, they should have been questioned already. their places of work, their home shoes have been searched for evidence of ballots, for evidence of usb ports, for evidence of voter fraud.
1:12 am
>> reporter: and shaye moss later said her life changed forever that the day giuliani spread conspiracy theories about her. and she and her mother soon rec rec received death threats and ruby freeman was forced into hiding. >> i've lost my name and i've lost my reputation. i've lost my sense of security. all because a group of people starting with number 45 and his ally rudy giuliani decided to scapegoat me and my daughter to push their own lies about how the presidential election was stolen. >> i second guess everything that i do. it's affected my life in a major way. in every way. all because of lies. >> reporter: giuliani claims
1:13 am
moss and freeman balloted to keep voters out of the county and also that they brought in suitcases filled with fake ballots for biden and scanned them into the system multiple times. and giuliani describes surveillance video he claimed showed them exchanging usb memory sticks containing a fraudulent vote count. >> the video what you see is a smoking gun, powerful smoking gun. qui quite obviously passing around usb ports as if they are vials of heroin or cocaine. you don't put legitimate votes under a table, wait until you throw the opposition out and in the middle of the night count tell. we'd have to be fools to think that. >> none of that was true, was it? >> none of it. >> reporter: adam schiff on the january 6 committee asked shaye if giuliani accurately described what her mom was passing under
1:14 am
the table. >> what was your mom handing you? >> a ginger mint. >> reporter: rudy giuliani has been found liable for defaming these two election workers and now this four day trial will actually determine how much giuliani owes them. he already owes them $230,000 for failing to respond to parts of their lawsuit. and on top of that, this mother and daughter are now asking the jury to award them between $15 million and $43 million for the reputational harm they say they have suffered from giuliani's comments and plus they are seeking additional money for their claim emotional distress. it is expected that giuliani will take the stand in his own defense this week. jessica schneider, cnn, washington. ousted u.s. congressman george santos could have a plea deal in the works in his criminal fraud case. court records show that he is negotiating with federal prosecutors in new york. santos talked about the possibility of a plea deal in an interview on sunday. >> are you going try to work a
1:15 am
plea deal or go to trial? >> look, in essence of everything going on, a plea is not off the table obviously at this point. but we just don't know that yet. there is obviously conversations taking place especially after what happened in congress and we'll see. >> are you afraid of going to jail? >> i think everybody should be afraid of going to jail. it is not a pretty place. i definitely want to work very hard to avoid that. >> santos is expected in federal court today for a status conference. he's pleaded not guilty to several charges including wire fraud, money laundering and embezzlement. the house voted to expel santos earlier this month. alexei navalny apparently has gone missing in the prison system and the white house is expressing deep concern. still ahead on cnn. and explosions in northern gaza as israel says hamas strongholds there are surrounded. details next.

1:19 am
welcome back. u.s. president biden is pledging
1:20 am
his unshakeable support for security of israel and support of the jewish people. >> and as mr. biden pledged continued support, he also issued a warning about the volatility of public opinion. take a listen. >> we continue to provide military assistance to israel until they get rid of hamas. [ applause ] >> but, but, we have to be careful. i have to be careful. the whole world's public opinion can shift overnight. we can't let that happen. >> as the u.n. general assembly gears up to resume its emergency session on gaza, israel's defense minister claims soldiers are surrounding the last two hamas strongholds in northern gaza and calling on fighters to surrender. >> and cnn is told that israel has a deep presence in jabalia camp. monday large explosions could be
1:21 am
seen in northern gas. israel says that hamas is on the verge of dismantling. elliott gotkine is joining us with the latest. israeli defense minister says hamas is at breaking point. what evidence is there? >> israel has been showing some videos of its raids going on and gunfights taking place. we've seen the images of what israel says are, uz , you know,s fighters surrendering and handing over their arms a. and the defense minister saying that what they are hearing from though surrendering, that they are running out of food and weapons and said if you want to live, you should surrender now and that is the only way that will happen. at the same time israel saying that it carried out raids on the hamas compound, it discovered something like 250 shells, rocket propelled grenades and
1:22 am
also destroyed a rocket launching post that was firing rockets towards israeli city in the south of sderot. and we heard from the director general saying not only are they deeply embedded in the northern part of jabalia, there are many tanks there and they are so close to him, he says he is 700 meters away, that he can hear the screams from where he is. >> elliott, thank you very much. and as the israel-hamas war rages on, cnn found series of interviews and key israeli flares qatar sent millions of dollars to gaza for years with israel's backing. although qatar is now coming under fire for sending the aid money to gaza, it is vowing not to stop the payments. >> but cnn also stdiscovered th benjamin netanyahu allowed the cash flow to hamas despite concerns raised from within its own government. miguel almagar has the story.
1:23 am
>> reporter: and questioning whether policies helped prop up hamas, in a series of interviews, cnn and the israeli investigative platform were told how netanyahu allowed cash donations to hamas for years without supervision despite concerns from within his own government. >> $30 million per month. $360 million. it is simple mathematics. >> a lot of money. >> a lot of money. dollar in gaza is like $20 in u.s. for them it was like oxygen. can you live without oxygen? no. so historic mistake. >> reporter: and he says he
1:24 am
repeatedly raised concerns to netanyahu. and when bennett became prime minister in 2021, he put a stop of the suitcases of cash to hamas moving the support from cash to a u.n. mechanism. >> i stopped the cash suitcases because i believe that horrendous mistake to allow hamas to have all the suitcases full of cash that goes directly to rearming themselves against israelis. why would we feed them cash to kill us? >> reporter: the cash deliveries were supposed to help. among other humanitarian needs, pay gaza civil servants and pictures in 2018 showed workers lining up to receive $100 bills. easy really approved the deal in a securities cabinet meeting in august 2018. during a previous netanyahu era as prime minister. and an israeli official defended the decision telling cnn successive israeli governments enabled money to go to gaza.
1:25 am
not in order to o strengthenen hamas, but to prevent a humamanitarian crisis. that is true, but no one else approved it in cash. former prime minister bennett says that netanyahu underestimated hamas. >> i think the approach towards hamas was one of sort of a nuisance type terrorist organization that can shoot rockets, can cause a bit of a havoc here and there, but not much more than that. >> soabsolutely. and we've learned a lesson. >> reporter: this lesson is a turning point for israel. one even long time netanyahu allies acknowledge. >> that was a strategic lesson for the israeli society that you can talk a lot about peace. you can try to do a lot of things. you can come to the white house,
1:26 am
get some nobel prizes, but in some point, enough is enough. and if you ask me what symbolize october 7, october 7 mostly symbolize the israel society no more take risks. railroad risks such as this, the toll of human suffering and international calls to slow the pummelling of gaza before israel is satisfied hamas has been destroyed. whatever the cost. and onone of vladimir r put top crcritics alexei navalny is apparently missing from prison. he is being held i in n a russi penal l economy eaeast of mosco bubut the prprison now says he not there and he missed a remote call on monday. >> they say they haven't heard
1:27 am
from him in six days. elections in russia are four months away and a member of nav navalny's foundation spoke about the timing of his disappearance. >> if you look to the timing, navalny missed tuesday last week and official elections were announced on thursday and this was also the day when we announced our campaign, our anti-putin anti-war campaign and these billboards that say russia, they are part of our campaign. and if you see the qr code, you will get to our website. and this was our little fun project. so of course putin wants his re-election to be as smooth as possible. iowa caucuses just weeks away and not much doubt about who will win. we'll see why all the drama is going on and who will finish second to trump. and harvard is set to decide

welcome back. if you are just joining us, let's me bring you up-to-date with our top stories. ukrainian president volodymyr zelenskyy set to address a group of u.s. senators in the coming hours as he makes his three for additional aid to help his country's war effort. funding negotiations in congress have stalled over odds at tying any further aid to changes in u.s. border policy. the u.s. supreme court considering a petition from special counsel jack smith to rule on whether donald trump deserves immunity from criminal prosecution in his election subversion case. trump has until december 20 to file a response to the petition. donald trump's lead just got even bigger among republicans seeking the presidential nomination. in a poll, more than half of all republican caucusgoers plan to vote for trump next month. the former president is also gaining traction in battleground states against current president
1:33 am
biden. jeff zeleny breaks down the numbers. >> reporter: tonight donald trump holding a commanding and widening lead in iowa. just five weeks before the state opens the 2024 republican presidential contest. >> thank you, everybody. >> reporter: the former president crossing a new threshold with 51% of republicans now backing him. according to a new "des moines register" poll. that is up from 43% in october. the shrinking gop field has boosted trump who now holds a 32 point lead. the race for second place is a snowdown with ron desantis at 19%, followed by nikki haley at 16%. >> he is his own worst enemy by not being able to control his mouth and that has consequences for governance and us being able to get things done. >> reporter: on a campaign swing, desantis and halg haley sharpening their attacks. >> we know the economy was good under donald trump, right?
1:34 am
but what we need to also remember was we went $9 trillion in debt during that same time. and we are paying the price for that. >> reporter: nearly half of likely iowa caucus xwoergoers s their minds are made up, 70% of trump supporters say they are firmly committed. >> first guy who ever got indicted whose poll numbers went up. >> reporter: and he turns his focus to joe biden as new polls show fresh signses of warning for the white house. in michigan and georgia, two of the five states biden turned from red to blue, the president is facing alarmingly low approval ratings. our poll shows fewer than 4 of 10 approve of his performance in office. >> i will save democracy. the threat is crooked joe biden. that is the threat. >> reporter: in michigan trump leads biden 50% to 40% in a hypothetical head to head match-up with 10% saying they wouldn't support either candidate. that raises the question of a
1:35 am
threat from a third party contender. asked specifically about robert f. kennedy jr. and cornell west, trump falls to 39% and biden to 31%. and in georgia, trump has a 49% to 44% edge over biden the poll found with 7% saying that they would not back either. chal nlgss for biden are coming into sharper view. >> trump talks the talk. we walk the walk. >> re frankly, he doesn't know what the hell he is talking about. >> reporter: among the many factors are trump's numerous legal challenges particularly the criminal charges for his efforts to over tturn the 2020 election. in georgia and mitch, nearly half say if true, it should disqualify him for the presidency. but long before it is clear if there will be a trump/biden rematch, the former president must navigate the republican primary. yes he has a sxhandincommanding iowa, but voting is not for five more week. for now the most competitive
1:36 am
race is for second place between nikki haley and ron desantis. jeff zeleny, cnn, washington. harvard corporation one of the xwofrnig governing bodies re university will decide on their president. claudine gay apologized for failing to denounce the threats to jewish students during congressional testimony last week. jason carroll is there. >> my name is claudine gay. >> reporter: tonight more signs of support for harvard university's president claudine gay amid calls for gay's removal after harvard board of directors meeting. as of monday roughly 700 members of the school's faculty have signed a petition which calls on university leaders to resist
1:37 am
political pressures and outside forces trying to remove gay. harvard legal scholar, who previously slammed gay for her testimony before congress, signed a petition supporting her. in an email to skrn okron on mo he wrote once external pressures from from donors or politicians pursuing their ideological agendas override the internal decision making processes of universities, we are on the road to tyranny. harvard alumni association said it unanimously supports claudine gay. and students say gay's testimony fell short, but would like her to stay. >> i feel like she does support the jewish community here. >> reporter: paulina says she hasn't felt safe being jewish on campus and the testimony last week from university leaders about anti-semitism on campuses
1:38 am
made things worse. >> i was really expecting a clear statement of we're against anti-semitism. >> reporter: the presidents from harvard and m.i.t. and the university of pennsylvania all came under intense scrutiny after their congressional testimony where they failed to condemn calls for the genocide of jews as it related to university policies against bullying and harassment. >> so the answer is yes that calling for the genocide of jews violates harvard code of conduct, correct? >> again, it depends on the context. >> reporter: gay later apologized for her responses telling the harvard crimson, words matter. university of pennsylvania's president was forced to voluntarily resign saturday. the next day new york congresswoman elise stefanik, the house republican who conducted a lot of the questioning at the hearing, and is a harvard alum, tweeted one down, two to go. the
1:39 am
congresswoman has come under scrutiny in the past for campaign ads that some in her party say echo "the great replacement" theory, a belief that black americans and jews want to replace white americanss. until recently, rabbi part of the anti-semitism advisory group created in the wake of october 7, chosen by gay. he says gay's testimony was the final straw and he resigned last week. >> i had wanted from any of the presidents a certain urgency and anger and indignation. >> instead you got what? >> instead we got legalisms and equivocations. >> should gay resign? >> not for me to say. really. i don't think -- >> why not? >> because i'm a rabbi who has been at harvard for two months. >> reporter: jason carroll, cnn, boston. just a day after elon musk restored the x account of right
1:40 am
wing conspiracy theorist alex jones, the platform is promoting his account and encouraging users to follow him. his profile had more than 1.5 million followers as of monday. >> jones has made headlines for spreading false conspiracy theories about the 2012 sandy hook elementary school shooting and last year a jury decided he should pay nearly a billion dollars in damages to the victims families for defamation. according to x jones' account will still be subject to its policies and platform will not try to make money off him through advertising. the state supreme court in texas has reversed a ruling that granted a woman the right to an emergency abortion. the woman is kate cox. her attorneys announced monday that she left the state to get an abortion. cox has said her fetus had a fatal diagnosis and her health was at risk if she continued the pregnancy to term. >> the ruling sided with texas
1:41 am
attorney general dozeken paxton. and reversed a lower court's ruling that would have allowed the abortion under the medical emergency exception. and next, a proposed agreement that has climate activists up in arms. we look at why there is outrage and disappointment on the final scheduled day of the cop 28 climate talks.
1:42 am
1:43 am
you're probably not easily persuaded to switch mobile providers for your business. but what if we told you it's possible that comcast business mobile can save you up to 75% a year on your wireless bill versus the big three carriers? did we peak your interest? you can get two unlimited lines for just $30 each a month. there are no term contracts or line activation fees. and you can bring your own device. oh, and all on the most reliable 5g mobile network nationwide. wireless that works for you. it's not just possible, it's happening.
1:44 am
to dubai where the final day of the cop 28 climate talks defended a hugely controversial draft deal to tackle the climate crisis. >> and the proposed deal crucially dropped calls for a phase out of fossil fuels. saudi arabia and iraq both major oil producing countries oppose any reference to a deposit still fuel phase out. the deadline set to finalize an
1:45 am
agreement has now passed and the discussions are on into oig. >> and eleni giokos is in dubai with the latest. a huge disappointment, but this is what you get when you need unanimity amongst the members. >> reporter: exactly. and you need 198 countries to find consensus on the wording. frankly, we've been talking about the wording since the start of cop 28 summit here in dubai. importantly phase out versus phase down. i think many people knew that the reality would be a phase down of fossil fuels and not a complete phase out because of the realistic approach of people taking, saying that energy security trumps natural transition. this is one of the big debates and a huge sticking point and it seems that it will remain so. we have passed now the initial deadline on the communique where hours in, the expectation is that it will hopefully come later on this afternoon. but one person following these
1:46 am
discussions very closely and also last night spoke about the disappointment with regards to the draft communique that we saw, this is fernando, a policy head. and great to have you with us. look, this was always going to be a big ambition, right? the phasing out of fossil fuels. how are you feeling knowing that it probably won't make it in the final communique? >> it is disappointing that because we saw this discussion coming up very strongly. and some countries clearly asking for that. and that didn't make it into the text. last version of the text that we are working with, but we're still hopeful that in this last hours of discussion, we can get a more ambuitious outcome, phasing out fossil fuels is what really will determine the success or not of this cop. >> and as to still opt miss particulars that we could see a
1:47 am
complete phase outof fossil fuels? >> well, i would say cautious optimism. the agreement was that we would stick with the agreement of yesterday. and i think that there are very strong voices in the discussions such as small island states and association of the island countries are saying that this is a bad sentence for them. so they won't accept any weak outcome. there are some forces in play against the forces that they did nt want to see an outcome on phasing out fossil fuels. >> and you have been having a lot of these discussions. why is there complete fear of making that commitment of completely phasing out of fossil fuels according to a specific time line, what is that scenario causing so much concern? >> i think there is two things there. first of all, there is the economic factor of course we are in a country in which the
1:48 am
economy is fossil fuel based, this is the reality for this area. and that implies a lot of money and a lot of transformation. and really a societal change. and i think people need to understand what fossil fuel phaseout is about. we are not saying, you know, tomorrow no fossil fuel is available, no one can use that. we're saying that you have 27 years to transition to avoid impacts that we are seeing everywhere in the world. heat, cold, et cetera, i think that it hit every corner of the world this year. and fossil fuels is the main cause of the climate change that we are seeing now. 80% of emissions are from fossil fuels. so there is no way that we are going to keep the temperature to 1.5 global warming if we don't tackle fossil fuels. and it is phasing out, not just reducing. this signals already out there since the last cop from the g-20 and it is not doing it.
1:49 am
so we need stronger wording. >> and another big thing of criticism and point of criticism is that the conversations being had and the action that is going to be taken does not match the emergency that we're experiencing right now. >> that is true. >> and that is one of the big concerns. and why people say listen, the environmentalists can scream and shout, but we have to be realistic about the really tis of what phasing out will completely do. >> yeah, i think that we have seen it before. and it is the reality for a long time that the process is very good at discussing what we should do in the near future or in the short term future. but we need action now. the fact we've been delaying implementation is making things really, really worse. but things change. they take more time than we can afford. one example is the affordability and availability of renewable sources. 20 years ago, who would talk
1:50 am
about renewable energy. for developing countries it was a no-go. and now it is rapidly scaling up and it is affordable. >> great to have you with us. thank you so much. >> reporter: look, we've been having these discussions. we know what we're facing from a climate perspective, but we also know realistically that it is not that easy to just turn off the tan. wha tap. what is the funding that is needed and we'll wait for the final communique. that worgd. wording. another delegate says that it doesn't matter what the communique says, but what people do and the action. and frankly, we haven't seen enough action over the last few years even in the thick of things with the climate emergency. >> all right. thank you so much. we'll be back with you as soon as we get that communique. now, a rare doubleheader. a lot of suspense in this week's monday night football. two games decided in the final
1:51 am
moments with big implications for the nfl playoffs, that is next.
1:52 am
1:53 am
1:54 am
1:55 am
fans were treated to a rare doubleheader and two nail biters in the monday night football. titans pulled off the upset over the favored dolphins in miami. and titans hadn't won on the road all season and dolphins needed a win to he rade remain the top seed. and in the nfc, the new york giants enjoyed their third straight win, this time over the green bay packers after a last
1:56 am
second field goal gave them the victory. both teams still have a shot at the playoffs. and the match resuming with a moment of silence. a medical emergency involving a grenada fan halted the playing. the fan suffered a cardiac arrest. both clubs expressed their condolences to his family. monday's match ended in a draw 1-1. and now stories in the spotlight for you. the golden globe awards have released the list of nominees for next month's ceremony. >> golden glow? >> i'm regressing. they have added a new category. >> giving franchises like "mission impossible" and john
1:57 am
