and billy joel debuts his first new song in decades live on the show, not ours, although ours is better. music's biggest night. i'm kate bolduan. this is "cnn news central." we begin in southern california, where millions of people are under threat of floods, landslides, and a deluge of record-breaking rainfall. more than 14 million people are at high risk of excessive rain. downpours have flooded streets and caused landslides, making some roads in southern california impassable at this hour. hurricane-force wind gusts have been reported in the state. right now more than 500,000 customers don't have power because of this powerful storm. eight counties are under a state of emergency, and there have been numerous water rescues that we have seen. this is video of a helicopter saving people stranded on an island in the middle of a river

in los angeles county. the county is forecast to receive a half of year's worth of rain by tomorrow. cnn's chad myers and veronica miracle are live for us. chad, we are going to start with you. you are in the place where i have lived a whole lot of my life. tell me what you're seeing there in victoria county. >> reporter: you know, it's still raining. it stopped briefly overnight, but now we have rain coming down again. it's light, but it's certainly not as heavy as what they have to the east of me by about 40 to 50 miles. it is raining heavily here in the mountains of southern california. there's some rain, yes, in the valley, in l.a. proper, but it's the hollywood hills, the palisades, the areas up there that have a lot of topography and house us, big houses, built on dirt cliffs. it's all saturated. sensors are saying more than 9 inches of rain have fallen, and it's still raining, and we could

see another 3 to 5 inches, especially out toward big bear. the problem is not that it's flooding up on top or we have landslides. all of that water has to reach the pacific ocean at some point. this tried to get there. it hasn't made it yet. this is a park. we shouldn't be standing in a lake in the middle of the park. it should all be just draining. but the ground is so saturated, it can't soak in. we had that storm a couple days ago. i know we've used the term atmospheric river, and i'm old to remember we used to call it a pineapple express. it's the same thing just with a new name. we came up with the name polar vortex a few years ago, but the pineapple express, the moisture starts in hawaii, where they have pineapples in the dole plantations, and all the way into southern california. we knew this was coming for days, and it certainly did not disappoint. people right now, it is still dark, people are driving through this area, and we still have water on roadways.

it's like whac-a-mole as we see the cars and trucks and bare kalds moving from one spot to another as the water rises. all of that water up there has to get over there, and it's going to be a few days. water is going to rise in places where you thought you were done, but you're not done yet. >> chad, you have all the new worlds for things, but you also remember the old things. you have more information in your pinkie finger than most of us do in our whole bodies when it comes to the water. you talked about the hills. people don't realize california runs off so quickly, the mudslides, the landslides. all of these things, places like the hollywood hills, that's where it will get treacherous, not just at the bottom as well. it is a dangerous situation. thanks for being there. thank you to your crew for standing in that rain all night long. we appreciate it. next to veronica miracle. you're in santa barbara. santa barbara has experienced this time and time again, mudslides, flooding. what is happening that the hour?

>> reporter: it happens every single year. if you remember back in 2018, 23 people died in montecito, just about 15 minutes from here. they take this very seriously here, all of the warnings, the evacuation offerders. it was a ghost town yesterday when he got in. the rain was pounding the area. you can see we are in a bit of a break, if you will. of course, anything can still happen. there is rain expected later today. but this area shows just how quickly things can change. yesterday, when we got in, this area was being pounded with debris that was coming down from the mountain. the river was flowing so high that it was still over here on this bridge. take a look here, and you can see how much the water has receded, significantly even since we've gotten here. so, things change very rapidly. yesterday the sheriff's deputies were knocking door to door on houses in this area, telling people it was an evacuation warning. a lot of people we spoke to

simply said, you know, they're comfortable right now, the storm not hitting this area as significantly as feared. the sheriff yesterday did say this was going to be one of the most significant storms to hit this area. they were concerned about loss of life. again, anything can still happen. there is rain expected later today, and, you know, as chad was talking about, hudslides can happen. the ground is saturated. debris can flow down the mountains. we're watching all of this. the santa barbara county airport remains closed to flooding and all the schools closed. we have not seen a lot of people walking around. all the businesses in the area were closed when we got in, so everyone taking this seriouseriously s here. >> thank you so much. that is a heck of a lot of water we're looking at, one of the

bridges in santa barbara. thank you so much, veronica miracle and chad myers. >> and things can shift so quickly and unexpectedly as you know. let's go further north now. joining us is the chief public information officer for monterey county, california. thank you so much for jumping on with me. what's the latest from where you are from the county? where and what are the areas of concern right now? >> well, good morning, kate. thank you for having me. at the present time, we still have the evacuation orders in place for parts of caramel valley in the low-lying areas along the caramel river. we have a shelter in place order for all del monte, as well as the southern plain part of the county due to potential landslide challenges there, in that area. so, we still are experiencing rain, and there still is a high-wind warning and a flood watch in effect for the entire

region. as you know, our soils are very saturated, and the runoff from the watersheds are projected to increase their river volume over the next several hours. the national weather service, speaking of wind, first, the national weather service issued -- and it's really rare for the area -- hurricane-force wind warning for parts to have coast, which stretches from the monterey peninsula past big sur. talk about these winds. what are you hearing from residents and from officials who, you know, from your emergency crews out there? >> we've had tremendous amount of winds, a use said, hurricane-force winds in some cases, almost as much as 90 miles an hour around the big sur coast. in inland, it's more 70-mile-an-hour wind gusts, so that means we have lots of downed trees and some downed power lines. at the present time, we have approximately 17 structures throughout the county that have either been destroyed or heavily damaged due to downed trees or power lines. we've had crews, public works,

fire crews, p&g all over the county assessing the situation this morning. >> from the forecasts we're seeing, i believe your area is under threat through i think it's tomorrow afternoon is the latest that i've seen in terms of the rain still coming down. what are you hearing from folks? are people staying safe? have you had to have -- have emergency crews had to go out to do rescues? what is the level of threat that people still need to understand is yet to come? >> well, driving conditions are dangerous for sure, especially in the areas where the high winds are, especially with some of our tall trees, large pines, redwoods, et cetera. so, those typical areas along the coastal roads, people should be very, very cautious. of course, inland, as well, because we have experienced high-gust wind inland as well. so, we want people to be

cautious. where the shelter-in-place orders are issued, it's because there are hazardous conditions. this gives our emergency crews time to get out and begin the recovery process. we are expecting the rain throughout the day and into tomorrow, and of course scattered showers throughout the week and already saturated ground. >> what do you think's going to be the biggest problem here? is it the wind? is it the threat of landslides? the ground is so saturated, and you also are coming off of a season of horrible wildfires. >> yes. fortunately, the forecast is the wind should be dying off sometime late they are morning, and we're hoping for a period of dry-out in the next couple days. the biggest thing we're concerned about is watching the river levels, of course, because often times the rivers don't reflect the amount of water that's come down until the water comes off the mountains and the watershed. so we'll be keeping an eye on

all the rivers throughout the county. fortunately, we have capacity in our reservoirs, which is great, and which will be very helpful. >> absolutely. thanks for taking the time this morning. good luck today. happening now, a jury in michigan deciding if the mother of a school shooter should be found guilty of manslaughter for her son's murders. this is the first-of-its-kind case for a verdict that could come any minute. the stage is set for a brawl over the border on capitol hill. the republican who negotiated the deal is calling out the republican house speaker for declaring it dead on arrival. and the u.s. has strikes on 42 new targets in yemen, and the white house says the president has approved even more military action.

all right. so, jurors are about to enter the courtroom to receive instructions from the judge in the manslaughter trial of jennifer crumbley, the mother of the teenager who shot and killed four students at october ford high school in 2021. this is a first-of-its-kind trial. prosecutors accuse jennifer of being grossly negligent giving her son a gun as a gift while ignoring warning signs about his deteriorating mental health. jean casarez is in pontiac, michigan, for the jury instruction and the verdict watch, which will begin right now. jean, what are you seeing? >> reporter: pivotal moment, pivotal day, john. what's happening right now, jury is coming in, the judge will instruct them on the law so that when they go in to deliberate, this is law they must follow. was there gross negligence on the part of jennifer crumbley of a known risk that her son could

commit a mass murder. was it foreseeable. should she have realized her son could commit a mass murder. the judge, before the jury came in, told the attorneys that the gag order that has been in place from almost the beginning, will stay in place until after james crumbley's trial. i want you to listen to some of those very strong -- on both sides -- closing arguments from friday. >> what i prove is not that she knew her son would shoot up the school. i have to prove that she had a legal duty, she negligently performed that legal duty, she negligently did not take steps to take care and protect the other children in that school when there was a reasonable foreseeability that ordinary care was required.

the smallest of things. >> i am asking that you find jennifer crumbley not guilty not just for jennifer crumbley but the for every mother who's out there doing the best they can and put yourselves in her shoes. >> reporter: so, the jury has now entered. the jury instructions will begin. now, there are 17 jurors at this point. 12 will be deliberating. they don't know who the alternates are. we don't know who the alternates are. the judge is going to select the five alternates randomly. they will stay in a room in the courthouse sequestered. they will not leave. the deliberating jury will then be together to start this verdict process, so important for both sides and for, obviously, the next at least 15 years for jennifer crumbley. >> jury instructions just beginning right now. you see the judge delivering

those instructions. as you know, jean, this verdict could come shortly, or this could be some time before we know what the jury is thinking. keep us posted. we'll keep the conversation going with robert bianchi, host of "law and crime." this is the first case, as those jury is getting the important instructions from the judge, the first time a jury is considering whether a parent can be charged for their child's mass shooting. we've never seen this happen before in the united states. so, it is a precedent potentially setting case. this jury has a lot of work to do. how do you think they're going to go through this? >> like you said, it's precedent setting. as a former homicide prosecutor and a person who ran a prosecutor's office, i'm very queasy about this prosecution based upon the facts here. so, what they're essentially doing, just to make sure we have it in a nutshell, is they're saying the parent should be held responsible because they were

gross gro grossly negligent, it was egregious, they should have known. typically speaking, we usually only penalize people for their actions, not the action of another person. on the quality of this evidence, it didn't seem to me that it would be clear, that it would be foreseeable that he would commit a mass murder. in fact, i think the evidence would suggest by the fact they kept him in the school, they didn't call law enforcement, that even the school officials didn't believe that he remitted a danger to himself or the community. so, in my mind, this is not the case factually to bring on this theory. now, if you were to argue that he said, the son said, that i'm going to do this, they went and got him a gun, you're in a much closer level of the parent's connection to the actual crime itself. the last point here, is this what we're going to be asking,

parents are going to be held responsible for all the actions their children create that may not have been in their orbit? my argument is the defense lawyer's summation was a little rambling here, was there was no way this was foreseeable. in fact, most people who have mental illness do not commit mass murders. we'll see what the jury does. they've got a lot of work to do, a lot of pressure, because there are four dead people. >> right. and you imagine, these are people, as is every jury, from the community. there are certainly parents on this jury. when you start thinking about what they're going through in their head, they have to look at the evidence, but what you know as a person that lives your everyday life, it would be very, very hard for a parent to say, gosh, could i know that my kid is going to do this? but there is some evidence the prosecutors have brought forward that was pretty strong in some of these cases like the text messages back and forth, where she said, don't do it. i want to ask you about jennifer crumbley, because she took the stand.

and we almost never see this in a case where someone is charged with involuntary manslaughter or charged with something stronger. do you think she helped her case or hurt her case? >> well, you know, this is the million-dollar thing. my teachers used to teach me, and now i teach people that jurors love to convict from the mouth of the defendant themselves. it could be the most persuasive evidence. but by the same token, if that jury is going to say that she convinced them that there would be no way i possibly would have known that the this would have been the outcome by us giving him a gun as a gift and he would have taken that gun and killed those people, if they resonate with her and put themselves in her position and say, gosh, is this something that i would want to be accused of if something, god forbid, happened in my world? then i think she helped herself out. you can't overlook what you said earlier on. there's a lot of community pressure. there's four children. and you wonder whether the emotion of that is going to

overwhelm the legal principles here, because if there's a conviction, prosecutors throughout this country, trust me when i tell you, are going to start now extending all sorts of liability to parents for crimes their kids commit. >> it is truly a fascinating case, and i liked how you broke it down, that they were not directly involved, and it's the thought process, and usually you don't get convicted on a thought process, it's the actions you took. we will be catching this very closely. i think they're still getting jury instructions, which, as you know, are really important for the jury to listen to. we'll be back when we find out what else is happening in court. thanks for coming on. >> my pleasure. the border battle takes on a new front right now. the leading rem who negotiated this deal is pushing back on criticism from his own party, criticism from republicans, he points out, who haven't yet read the bill. and hours after winning big at the grammys, rapper killer mike is arrested.

after the worst month in american history in december? now we've got to determine are we just going to complain about things or actually address and change as many things as we can? >> all right. cnn's lauren fox is covering all the action on capitol hill. first, lauren, what's actually in this bill which would be one of the biggest series of changes in a generation or more? >> reporter: given the pierce republican opposition to this bill, i think it's important to take a moment to explain what's actually inside. after months of negotiations with a bipartisan senate group, what they came to terms with is a change in the way that the u.s. would ultimately handle asylum claims at the southern border. specifically, they would raise the threshold of who would qualify to even begin the asylum process. they're also trying to move more expeditiously to ensure that what used to take years would now only take about six months. they are also introducing this

new emergency border authority, which essentially says if border crossings reach a weekly average, daily threshold of 5,000, that the administration must shut down the southern border. but it's not enough for many republicans, including those in the senate. just a couple minutes ago, you saw a tweet from the national republican senatorial dientz, a doesn't go far enough and he will not support it. mitch mcconnell has repeatedly said he thinks this effort was done in good faith. he's been very supportive of republicans needing to consider this legislation. he, in fact, sent out a statement last night saying all his republican members needed to be prepared to act this week. it will be interesting to see where the votes land in the senate. you have have people like senator mike lee of utah

tweeting last night that this bill was so bad, they think the republican in the senate needs new leadership. >> and of course mike johnson was saying this wasn't going anywhere, even before he saw the bill. what's he saying now? what are other republicans in the house saying now? >> reporter: yeah. a really notable tweet last night from majority leader steve scalise, who said this bill is not even going to get a vote on the floor of the house of representatives. you also have mike johnson saying that this bill is dead on arrival in the house. and the house gop's official accounts this morning tweeting "kill the bill" with statements from several house republican members who are opposed to this legislation. we should just remind people, this isn't just a border bill, though. this bill is papered with funding for ukraine aid, with israel aid, with aid in the indo-pacific. it is a maximum national security piece of legislation that a lot of republicans think is essential even if there is

this fight within the party about whether or not this border deal is enough. >> it is important to watch what happens over the next few days and listen very carefully to what people say. lauren fox, thank you. kate? let's talk more about this moment with cnn's senior political analyst and anchor john avlon and national politics report for axios sophia kai. the message last night, again this morning was that senators need to drown out the noise of politics and of politicians. but is that what it is? i mean, is it drowning out the noise? is that what -- is that what is going to be required? >> it requires them to have the focus of doing their job. it requires them not to overindex donald trump's demands. it requires them not to overindex the demands of folks on the extremes of the party. it requires the middle 60 in the senate to do what they know is right and what so many have worked hard to do across bipartisan lines -- come up with a bill that solves the border

crisis, which was the republican demand and request. this does more than in decades. and also tie that to aid for ukraine, aid for israel, support for taiwan. a failure to pass this is a dereliction of duty. it is a profile in cowardice. and those are the stakes. that's the case to be made. >> the stakes do seem to be high, sophia, politically and policy-wise. as john is pointing out, if this would pass, the changes to the border, as is written in the text and in the summary, this hasn't happened in decades. the noise that schumer seems to be talking about is a specific thing, it's donald trump today. can both sides, do you see, claim a political win, which, in the politics of today is required with this one, or does this still remain a zero-sum game? >> i don't know, kate. i think for republicans, they see it as more of a political

whip for biden, so that's why you see trump calling speaker johnson. you know, we don't know exactly what the content es of that conversation look like, but it was somewhere along the linings of, don't do this. that's why you see in the house speaker johnson, steve scalise, elise stefanik, all extremely negative on the bill. of course we don't know what the state of the bill is. but the reason really is trump, because he sees this as more of a win for his rival, joe biden, in the general election. >> take that as the political reality, john. what then is going to convince lawmakers, senators is what we're focused on now, what is going to need to happen, or what do you think can happen, if anything, in the next three days for them to agree to move ahead with this procedural vote, this first key test vote that would be coming wednesday? what reward? what would convince them? >> they've done the hard work to come up with a solution.

people say washington doesn't get anything done. prove that you can get something done. don't let the extremes and donald trump stop people from having faith that government can work. and take a big step back. >> i'm looking at it now. could they look at it through a different lens, which is avoid the extremes, but when you're all in it together, there's the a lot of political cover for everybody. >> there is, and there should be strength in that number, and that's the strength of the center ultimately. take a step back. i love doing this in politics. look at how this will look in 20 years. do you want to be parent of a solution to the boarder that you've been complaining about because people are rightly concerned? or do you want to do nothing because you were afraid someone else might get credit? ronald reagan used to say, it's amazing how much you can get done if you don't care who gets the credit. the other thing is ukraine. the people sort of kowtowing to this and separating out ukraine, they will be responsible for abandoning an american ally to

russian aggression. they will be putin's enablers, all because they're afraid of donald trump. all of donald trump's policies make america weaker at home, similar blitdsed by the pushback on these solutions to two bipartisan bills. >> it sure doesn't seem they can get a bill with this kind of strength on the border and money to the border security than in a few months even, let alone in this moment. the schedule, really quick. our friends at punch bowl reminded us last week this -- after this week, following, the senate is scheduled to leave town for two weeks during the presidents' day recess. the house and senate will be in session at the same time for just three days this month according to the current schedule. put aside politics for just a second, when you're looking at procedure, the schedule here is also not helping. >> yeah, absolutely not. i mean, we know that -- you know, a lot of lawmakers say, look, you should have done this before winter recess, before the time where all of the lawmakers

want to get out. the one thing that's kind of lighting a fire under them is, you know, spending time with their families. so, you know, to your point, the three days' overlap just highlights the kind of urgency that -- >> jet fuel is the motivator on capitol hill. >> it tooles motivator. but i'm sorry, i can't get over the irony of the fact the same folks trying to kill the bill right now were the same ones saying you had to slow roll it before the holiday break because it was too fast for a majority vote. it's almost like they wanted to kill it from the beginning. >> you know what john lon is saying here. >> yeah. >> let's see what happens in the next three days. it will be critical for what this looks like and where it will end up. thanks, guys. >> a nice, spirited conversation. still ahead, secretary of state antony blinken arrives in the middle east again as the biden administration is warning again the strikes carried out over the weekend are just the

beginning. and another issue for boeing and the 737 max 9. remember what happened with the door that came flying off? well, the new repair needed and what boeing is saying about it this morning.

thu this morning, iran's foreign ministry is condemning the u.s. strikes against iranian-backed militias in three countries. we're talk about the strikes that took place first on friday in iraq and syria and also the strike against yemen, which intensified over the weekend. the white house national security adviser tells cnn the u.s. is not done yet and will take further action.

the u.s. launched a series of strikes in iraq and syria in response to the killing of three u.s. soldiers. defense officials say they hit 84 of 85 intended targets. a day later, the u.s. forces targeted the hue thhouthis in yemen. today we are watching at secretary of state antony blinken arrives in the middle east as he presses for a deal to release the hostages in gaza. with me now the cnn military analyst, former nato supreme allied commander, general wesley clark. general clark, thank you for being with us. the strikes that took place, syria, iraq, yemen, and now the white house says there could still be more. i'll put video up here so people can see the beginning of this mission against yemen, the firing from the sea vessels here. what would more strikes look like in your mind? >> i think that what we're doing right now, john, is we're assessing what's going on in the region. we're listening, we're looking, listening not only to political statements but what people are

saying on their radio, their communications. we're picking up information indirectly from diplomats and other nations. and we're looking to see if these forces that we struck are reconstituting, preparing to restrike us, and we're watching for other targets to emerge. so, i think it's in the interest of the white house and the united states to have a second set of strikes if they can find the appropriate targets, and it makes sense. it's going to take a while, assuming that the strikes really do hit the targets that were essential in the first wave. it will take a while for the terrorists to reform anyway, a week, two weeks, three weeks. before we expect any continuation of that kind of action from syria. yem season a different case, so we should be looking at it from eyes from the sky and striking momentarily when we see threatening activities. >> general, what's the difference, if any, between

deterrence, which the administration has said this is part of, and just warfare? >> well, you can -- you can wage warfare to an objective. so, you can destroy an enemy force through warfare, and presumably that's the end of the conflict. deterrence is causing the enemy not to want to strike you for fear or because he doesn't have the capacity. so, the idea here is to show american strength and then let the enemy feel this and say, gee, i don't want to go any further. so, that would be the idea of the deterrence here. the point, though, is the source of the trouble is really not either yemen or syria and iraq. it's really iran. so, the question here that the administration has to grapple with is, are these strikes really changing the strategic intense of iran? or is it simply going to duck

down, keep its head low, and wait for the bullets to stop and raise up again and continue the same thing? you know, this has been a 40-year struggle against iran, and nothing we've done so far has really changed their strategic intent to drive us out of the middle east and to destroy israel. >> in fact, insofar as the united states has been speaking publicly about this, one of the things they've been making clear is they're not striking iran proper. so, what would it take to change iranian behavior without striking iran? >> i think one thing that argues in the favor of the united states is this regime is unpopular inside iran. people there have protested numerous times against it. there's still a large volume of -- a large number of people out there who would love to take to the streets and overthrow this government. in fact, when i talk to my friends in iran and connected to

iran, they tell me, they say, it looks like the united states is complicit with this regime in iran because they're giving them money, they keep telling them we're not going to strike and so forth. so, you don't know how strong the internal opposition is, but clearly it worries the iranian government, so they're playing a very cagey, sly game against us, trying to hang on to their objective, also trying to maintain control of their population. they are in a vulnerable position, and i think the more we do to undercut their position at home, the greater effect our military can have. >> general, thank you. a big world cup win for one u.s. city. the announcement from fifa that just came in today. and some of the moments from music music's biggest night that people are talking about today. an historic win and a taylor swift announcement from the stage. >> i want to say thank you to

the fans by telling you a secret that i've been keeping from you for the last two years. paladino. . .

two leading candidates for senate. two very different visions for california. steve garvey, the leading republican, is too conservative for california. he voted for trump twice and supported republicans for years, including far right conservatives. adam schiff, the leading democrat, defended democracy against trump and the insurrectionists. he helped build affordable housing, lower drug costs, and bring good jobs back home. the choice is clear. i'm adam schiff, and i approve this message.
