this is cnn breaking news. >> happening right now on capitol hill, you are looking live at senate republicans on track to kill the most conservative border deal to come before them in decades. the $118 billion package would implement strict limits along the southern border, like requiring it to be shut down if crossings reach high levels. it would also raise the standard for asylum seekers and expedite the asylum process. >> hanging in the balance is also $60 billion in aid to ukraine, another $14 billion in aid to israel both tied to the steel, cnn covering this story from all angles.

first, live to capitol hill and our chief congressional correspondent, monty roger. this is doomed to fail. how likely is a standalone aid bill at this point? >> reporter: there is no question about the fact that senate republicans are about to kill this package. a handful of democrats are expected to vote no as well, but this is really a republican story, because of the fact of the immediate aftermath of the deal, they have been working behind the scenes, a handful of senators cutting a deal on border security, new policies at the border. republicans insisted that had to be dealt with first before aid to ukraine, israel, and taiwan could be enacted. the goal of mitch mcconnell was to put this on the floor right now, get this to the senate and try to get it somehow through the house, but house republican leadership has said this is dead on arrival. former president trump said

that he would not accept it, and a lot of republicans are saying there is no point in moving forward on this larger bill now, given the resistance among the republicans and the former president. what's next? senate majority leader chuck schumer has indicated he will try to advance a bill that does include billions of dollars of funding. nearly $100 billion of funding for taiwan, israel, ukraine, other matters as well. the question will be, will he get the 60 votes he needs to advance that bill without the border provisions? at the moment, it appears that he might. republican leaders, including mitch mcconnell and other top republicans have indicated support for moving along on that measure. there is also big question here, though, even if it gets out of the senate, which is still an open question at this moment. will it get through the republican-led house? the speaker this morning would simply not commit to moving on the senate plan, moving

different aid packages separately, not to tie them all together. ukraine is a very divisive issue, particularly, in the house republican conference. so many questions as senate republicans are planning to kill this big package, and plan b is starting to move. can they get there? that remains to be seen. >> i want to go now to fred plykin. how dire is a situation in ukraine right now? >> it's getting more dire for the ukrainians by the day. we have been on, basically, all the front lines in this country, certainly, the most active. the biggest problem for the ukrainians right now is a shortage of ammunition, artillery ammunition. when you go to the front line, you see just how many american weapons and other american gear is being used by the ukrainians and how key it is for the ukrainians to stay in the fight. we have seen howitzers from the

united states, for instance the pallet and howitzer, and things like vehicles, trucks, guns, bullets, all of the things that ukrainians need to stay in the fight. the situation around that is getting more difficult by the day. certainly, the areas we've been to, the ukrainians are still hanging on. the russians are pressing, but the ukrainians are hanging on, but it's becoming more difficult for them by the day, especially, as a shortage of ammunition gets worse. there is another thing that is an even bigger concern right now for the ukrainians. one of the things we had this morning in the ukrainian capital and many other cities was a massive barrage of russian missiles fired at the ukrainian capital. pretty much all of them were taken down by western air defense systems. of course, the system from the united states, extremely important. the patriot, even more important than not. the things that the ukrainians are looking at now is, what if those missiles start writing

out? that could be the case judging by how many missiles the russians have fired today, and that could have devastating effects on ukrainian infrastructure and cities, with that, also on ukrainian civilians. for the ukrainians, this is a big issue. there are some european countries that are already stepping in and trying to provide more, but there really is no country that can do what the united states does and what the united states has done, as far as military support for the ukrainians, in terms of gear and ammunition. >> fred, thank you. let's go to nick robinson in tel aviv. yesterday, house republicans rejected their own stand-alone bill. we are also learning that secretary of state antony blinken is holding critical talks with leaders that could determine the fate of dozens of hostages in gaza. here domestically, dealing with aid, and where you are, dealing with potentially, trying to get the rest of those hostages out. what more can you tell us about that? >> the proposal -- the

counterproposal that hamas put on the table is a three-phase release of the hostages, the women, children, elderly and sick, and phase two would kick in, both the civilians and the military, 45 days later, if everything went well. phase three would be the release of all the bodies of the remaining hostages, believed to be about 31 right now. what we've heard from israel's prime minister this evening at a press conference, really aimed at his domestic audience, he is pushing back on the deal. he is not saying it's not happening, but he is pushing back clearly and saying, we must have a military victory. that is close, not years away, not months away. he told secretary 20 -- blinken that it was close. he is putting down an element of what hamas had called for, which was a release of palestinian prisoners, saying that we have not agreed to any demands about the numbers or

the types of prisoners, or prisoners with blood on their hands. that was the reference. on the public face of it, prime minister netanyahu is pushing off the terms of this deal as for this counterproposal as put forward by hamas. behind closed doors, he did say, we don't do the deals in front of the cameras. the real work gets done behind the scenes, but behind those closed doors, it isn't clear if the big gaps that remain, that hamas wants a complete cease- fire to get there, and the prime minister is saying, absolutely not, only a military victory. of course, that is on secretary blinken's agenda . interesting that secretary blinken took time to meet with the army chief of staff to get their assessment of the last, big potential battle for the idf in gaza. rougher, where there almost 1

1/2 million palestinians living. this evening, antony blinken meeting with the defense minister, which the prime minister said was unusual. diplomacy may be reaching around to a prime minister that will come to the position the u.s. would like him to take. >> that is very interesting, nick. just reminding everyone, we will hear from antony blinken, we believe, in the next hour or even in the next few minutes. we will keep an eye on that. thank you so much for that reporting. cnn's manu raju is still with us. joining us now, special assistant to george w. bush, scott jennings. i will start with you. we are watching the senate floor right now. i see kiersten cinema in the red, she was just on the floor very frustrated about this. just to remind everybody, republicans are the ones who demanded there be this immigration bill or that there be legislation to deal with this

in order to move forward on this aid, and yet, now they are the ones rejecting it. she just sat on the floor, after all those trips to the desert, after all those press conferences, it turns out this crisis is not much of a crisis at all. sunday morning it's a major crisis, monday morning it magically disappeared. what do you think about that? >> the republicans would say, yes, we do need to do something on the border, but this bill does not meet the moment. they would argue on the policy merits. the retort to that is that you have two different parties and it's a compromise. you get what you get in divided government. it's unlikely, by the way, that even if republicans control all three legs of the stool next year, they would never get democrats to deal with them in the way they have. she's not wrong. it was republicans that said, if we are going to do all of this stuff for ukraine, we have to do something for the border. that's how this whole thing started in the first place. there is an old saying that says

time kills all deals, and it did take four months, and in that time, donald trump became the de facto leader of the republican party. he is the most influential person in the party. >> it is an election year, and you don't see much get done in election years, however, there are exceptions in crises. we've seen that during the financial crisis. we saw things get done, and americans look at this and they say, this is a crisis. i wonder how you think americans, republicans, independent voters are going to look at this, if they even truly understand what's in the bill. it is kind of common sense stuff, almost like a circuit breaker if the border gets overloaded. things are really slow when it comes to asylum, speeded up so that people that are rejected get sent away more quickly, if they are rejected. how do you think voters will perceive it? >> i wouldn't overestimate the amount of in the weeds knowledge that voters have. i do think, at a topline,

political situations, looking at all the polling, joe biden is in a real hole on this. people have agreed with republicans that it's a crisis. they agree that something needs to be done. they agree that biden has failed. whether they have come to believe this bill is a catchall for it, i'm dubious. most americans just wonder why we can't just close the border until we can get a handle on how many people -- why are so many people able to come across every single day? i also think an undercovered part of this is the impact of the drug crisis. people are desperate for something, especially on fentanyl. chuck schumer, when he puts up the plan b today, i guess he will leave the sentinel piece in, even in states that are far away from the border. apart from the humanitarian crisis, the drug epidemic is fueling a lot of people's anxiety about the crisis. >> let's go to manu raju for a

second. we are talking about the senate, but also the house has seen an unprecedented 24 hours of dysfunction and chaos. speaker johnson said there are steady hands at the wheel, and i know you asked him earlier today about thomas massey's quote that he tweeted, saying that it has been an unmitigated disaster. i think those were his words. what are you hearing more about the gop's confidence in the speaker's ability to govern? >> actually, this is been quite commonplace in this republican- led house. they've seen something we've never seen before in the history of the country, ousting a sitting speaker. they've had a difficult time doing the basic essence of governing, trying to keep the lights on for the federal government, passing short-term spending bill after short-term spending bill, facing revolts within the far right, scuttling leaderships plans. last night, seeing the failure to move forward and the impeachment of alejandro mayorkas, despite months of

laying the groundwork for this effort. there were three republicans that voted against this, but there is a miscalculation by the speaker himself, who thought that one democrat was not going to show up. that democrat, al green, did show up. he is recovering from surgery. that changed the math completely. i spent the day talking to republicans, not just about that, but everything that has gone on, the inability to get anything done on the border. the stall with israel and ukraine, and taiwan aid, all being dealt with right now. many of them are making clear they are not happy. >> when you are handed the keys to the kingdom, as it were, when you have the majority, there is an expectation that you will be able to govern, and we have just struggled with that over and over again. >> i was embarrassed for our conference, for our party, because we can do better than we did last night. >> he didn't count votes. i think you will next time.

>> reporter: should he count the votes before coming to the floor? >> in his defense, i think he relied on other people to sway some people. he needs to count votes before coming to the floor. this message of not impeaching mayorkas sent the wrong message, i think. as bad as pelosi was, she knew her votes. >> the democrat, nancy pelosi, who did often go to the floor, even with a narrow majority to get legislation through. the democratic caucus and house gop caucus are just two different places right now. many of those republicans simply don't listen to their leadership, despite their efforts. johnson, dismissing and downplaying all of these divides, saying that they will move forward, but a messy, messy period, no doubt about it. >> manu raju, scott jennings, our thanks to both of you. next, could a hostage deal between israel and hamas now be within reach? any minute, this is what we are

keep an eye on, the embassy in jerusalem. we are going to be hearing from secretary of state antony blinken following his meeting with israeli prime minister, benjamin netanyahu.

secretary of state antony blinken is about to speak from israel, from tel aviv, after a series of high-level meetings in the region to try to forge a peace deal that would see the remaining hostages in gaza freed. we have brand-new cnn reporting inside the tunnel system that israel says hamas used to hold hostages. an israeli military escort accompanied a small group of journalists, and the idf did review cnn's footage of the tunnels. walk us through what you saw. >> first of all, we were taken to gaza by the israeli military, which means that everything we saw was only what they allowed us to see, and even so, i can tell you that the destruction that i witnessed inside the gaza strip was just unbelievable. we drove from the gaza border

fence to khan yunis, and i had a limited view, but i can tell you that i did not see a single building that was not damaged in some way, and most of them were completely destroyed beyond recognition, so there are piles and piles of rubble everywhere you look. the israeli military says that this destruction is down to the fact that they are trying to destroy this underground tunnel system that hamas built under much of the gaza strip, and that is what they wanted us to see. we went inside two separate tunnel compounds under a residential neighborhood in the very heart of khan yunis, and i can tell you that the experience of being inside these tunnels was just horrendous. it is really narrow, dark space. it's very warm and very humid, and once they took us into the different rooms, it was just a very strange experience. all of the walls are tiled, and

you can see that some thought was put into the decorating of these rooms, where israel says some of the hamas leaders were hiding, even during this war, and crucially, some of the hostages that were taken during the october 7th attack were held in these rooms. these rooms, the rooms where they were held is just this cavelike space. it's very warm, very humid. you feel like you can't breathe, like the oxygen will run out on you. you feel like the walls are coming in on you and going to collapse any time. it's just a horrible experience. >> as you are talking, we are seeing what you are describing in the video next year. thank you so much for that reporting. we do appreciate it. >> every sticking point in the negotiations between hamas and israel puts more lives at risk. for the latest on these negotiations, we have alex mark

hard here in washington. take us through hamas's demands, and why benjamin netanyahu is calling them crazy. >> we have now gotten a response by the israeli prime minister netanyahu, and not one that we thought would be coming, because the momentum had been relatively positive. the thinking being that we were getting closer to a deal, and here you have netanyahu coming out and saying that we have not committed to any of the crazy demands of hamas. he says there has to be a negotiation, and from what i see from hamas, it's not happening. that's what makes what we are about to hear from secretary blinken all the more important, because he will be asked to respond to where this actually stands. blinken was briefed on hamas's demands yesterday by the qatari's, who had gotten the counter proposal. he responded positively and another person involved said this was a reasonable counteroffer from hamas. clearly, netanyahu does not see it that way.

we are talking about a multi- phased deal that would put a pause in the fighting over the course of several months, and potentially, get the more than 100 hostages home. now, the major sticking points that i'm seeing right at this point, in order to just get the initial phase off the ground, because in exchange for israeli hostages, hamas wants palestinian prisoners. they want all of the prisoners who have been arrested or detained since october 7th. that would include the terrorists who carried out october 7th. on top of that, they want 500 more, who israel would consider to have blood on their hands, prisoners who are in prison, some of them with life sentences. then, once you move beyond that, that is just assuming the first phase gets off the ground. there are two other complicated factors. hamas wants to see all of the israeli soldiers out of the gaza strip heard -- and more broadly, hamas wants a deal that will lead to the end of

the war. that is not something that israel is ready to agree to. we heard netanyahu in the press conference earlier today saying they are still working on complete victory over hamas, which he says will take several more months. >> alex, thank you for that. we are joined by leon panetta, former defense secretary, former cia director during the obama administration. thank you for being with us. let's talk about what we've heard today from benjamin netanyahu. he said that he told blinken that they are near to complete victory, and surrendering to hamas's demands will only ask for another disaster. it really doesn't sound like someone looking to sign a hostage deal anytime soon. how are you evaluating what you are hearing from him? >> i think netanyahu is, basically, trying to establish a bargaining position. he knows, ultimately, this has to happen in order to be able to

get the hostages released. in order to be able to take a breath with a cease-fire and be able to evaluate where they are at, and thirdly, i think it's critical to provide humanitarian aid to those that are in gaza. for a number of reasons, i think this is in benjamin netanyahu's interest, politically, to be able to get this done, but he's going to push. he's going to try to continue to squeeze the negotiations, but i really do believe that ultimately, he will agree to some kind of deal. >> is what you are witnessing, in your opinion, just him trying to delay an end to the ivf operation because we heard him say today that the idf is preparing to fight in rafah next, which is something that

would come with enormous complications, but certainly, he is signaling that they are really zeroing in on hamas leadership. >> look, i think he is intent on trying to continue to go after hamas's leadership, as he should, and frankly, make sure that he is gone after all of those responsible for october 7th. that's going to take time. i suspect that is going to require more targeted operations than the kind of operations we've seen in gaza, and the military is going to have to convince him that those kinds of targeted operations can work and can work effectively. my view right now is that he is trying to put pressure on the negotiations. he's trying to put pressure on hamas, on secretary blinken, i'm sure, but in the end, i don't think he has much room to

walk away from this deal. i think he has to come up with an approach that gets the hostages back. there is tremendous political pressure in israel now to get those hostages released, and i think, ultimately, he is going to be willing to come to some agreement, as hamas will, in order to be able to develop a cease-fire, to be able to develop an approach that allows humanitarian aid to go in, and provides for release of the hostages. >> when you say targeted operations, are you saying a shift away from these larger bombings towards special operations on the ground? raid like operations? >> absolutely. we did it after 9/11. we developed a counterterrorism operation, to basically go after the leadership of al qaeda, that was involved in the attack on 9/11, and we were successful in going after their leadership.

it took some time, but we ultimately got all of the key people involved in that attack. i think it's an effective way to be able to target individuals, who are now going to be, basically, not just in the tunnels, they are going to be all over the place trying to hide from the israelis. i think it's going to be a prolonged effort to try to ultimately get the leadership that was involved in october 7th, and i think they can do it for a more targeted operation. >> if he is not into that idea, as much as you think and many others think you should be, and he is indicating that the idf is preparing to fight next in rafah, where so many palestinians have evacuated two. it's not safe there, but it's safer. so much of gaza has been destroyed. what would that look like, with the idf targeting rafah? >> he could walk into a

situation that will just create even more political problems for him, if he just charges and with military force to try to go after the remaining leadership. a principal point here, and i agree with that, is that israel has to target the leadership of hamas that was involved on october 7th. i agree with that. i think most people agree with that. but, you're talking about a leadership that isn't going to be in one place. they are moving around. i would assume some of them have already probably gotten out of gaza. some are probably still in gaza, but it means that you have to have a targeted operation to be able to go after those who were responsible. we could use boots on the ground in pakistan. we could not use f-16 fighters in pakistan, but what we did do

was use counterterrorism operations that were very effective at destroying al qaeda's leadership. i think that is the lesson that israel needs. >> secretary, great to have you. thank you for your time this afternoon. we are watching two events right now on the hill. the senate, on the left, on track to reject a bipartisan border and foreign aid bill that was five months in the works. then, at any second, we are expecting from tel aviv, to hear from secretary of state, antony blinken. that is on the right side of your screen. this comes after a series of important meetings he has had with israeli and palestinian authority leaders as well as others in the region. we will be right back.

right now, the senate is on track to kill the most conservative border bill to come before them in decades. it would've placed strict limits on immigration and provided billions of dollars in foreign aid to allies like ukraine and israel. let's go now to manu raju on capitol hill. give us the latest. we see kyrsten sinema on the floor. she delivered a fiery speech ahead of this vote. what's happening? >> reporter: this bill need 60 votes in order to proceed, and it will not get the 60 votes because of mostly republican opposition. not many republicans have voted yet. they are still having a lunch meeting. some of these senate votes can take some time and go for over an hour sometimes, just to cast one vote in this very deliberative body, but only two republicans have voted to advance this measure, james

lankford, one of the authors of this larger national security package that includes aid to ukraine, israel and taiwan, and in addition, new border and immigration policies. also, lisa murkowski of alaska, a moderate republican voting yes to advance this package. there have been some democrats who have voted against it, some who are concerned about the concessions that joe biden made in order to cut this border deal. among those democrats who voted no were senator padilla of california, and elizabeth warren of massachusetts, and bob menendez of new jersey. and, independent senator, bernie sanders, who caucuses with democrats. not placing conditions on aid to israel, that is something that a lot of the democrats on the more progressive wing of the caucus have pushed for. this bill does not deal with that, those conditions on providing aid, but nevertheless, this bill is

expected to collapse amid mostly republican opposition, because they believe this border deal does not go far enough, because house republicans and leaders, along with the former president donald trump, have said that this bill must be killed. that exactly -- is exactly what they plan to do. right now, republicans are debating about whether they should move forward on a separate aid package to aid israel, ukraine and taiwan, and drop the border piece altogether. that is the plan of chuck schumer, the senate majority leader. he is trying to set up a vote to move on the aid without the border, but he needs 60 votes to do that. the 51 member democratic caucus needs nine republicans to advance the measure. can they get there? there is an expectation they can't in the senate, but it will take more negotiations. republicans, in particular, are debating behind the scenes. and, what they should get in return for voting yes, all key negotiations that can determine whether they get out of the

senate, and later they can worry about getting it through the house. >> before we let you go, what does this all mean for sentiment -- senate minority leader? he is very pro-ukraine funding. he had blessed them to go ahead and try to negotiate this, and then came back and said, the former president doesn't like it. where does this leave him amongst his conference, and where is he on this legislation? >> reporter: he is out front on this issue. in fact, he has been involved in these negotiations for some time. his fingerprints are all over this bipartisan deal. he had been pushing for ukraine for months and trying to convince his conference to move along the border plan, but he has been unable to sway them, ultimately, telling them they can vote however they want. of course, he has been on the opposite side of donald trump on everything since january 6, which has put them in hot water

with the trump wing of the gop conference. we've heard more more criticism of mcconnell from within his conference than any other time. he has been the longest-serving party leader in history, but he is facing dissension among the far right. he does have significant support within the conference at large, but there are outspoken members that are calling for him to step aside, like senator ted cruz of texas, for one, but also questions about how long mcconnell will stay as leader. we know he plans for the rest of this congress, but the next congress has another question. >> manu raju on the hill. thanks so much. at any moment, secretary of state antony blinken could speak. he is in tel aviv trying to get israel and hamas to agree on a deal that could lead to an extended pause in the war, and trying to get hostages freed as well. we will hear from him after a long day of meetings on both sides. stay with us.

this is such an incredibly sad story. a georgia couple is suing an atlanta area hospital, alleging that their doctor decapitated their unborn child during the delivery process, and then tried to cover it up. >> the medical examiner is calling the death a homicide, and the case is now under investigation by police. isabel rosales is here with more details. we understand you spoke with the parents and their attorneys. what are they saying? >> reporter: good afternoon to you. today, for the first time ever, we are hearing from the babies parents, jessica ross, when they lost their baby in such a

dramatic way, understandably, they are incredibly distraught by this. they are emotional. they are seeking justice here. also in the past 24 hours we received the results, the findings of the clay county medical examiner's office. they looked into this baby's death, and what they determined, and this is new information, is that the manner of death was a homicide. this is not the same as a criminal homicide. this simply means that in this death, this death was caused by a human, through the actions of another person. they also determined that the cause of the death was via a broken neck. the baby had a broken neck, as someone exerted too much force in trying to deliver the baby, vaginally, and then an emergency c-section as they were trying to deliver the baby, the baby's head was decapitated. this is, obviously, incredibly disturbing details. the parents also filed a lawsuit against the hospital involved in the dr., who performed the delivery. they claim that the staff waited too long to perform a c- section and put too much force

on the babies head and shoulders, and the hospital also tried to conceal how the baby was killed from the family, saying that the hospital -- the family is claiming that the hospital was not forthcoming about the couple's ability to get a free autopsy, that the hospital offered to cremate the baby, something as a view is an attempt to get rid of evidence, and that hospital staff would not allow them to touch or hold the baby. >> i just want justice for my baby boy. i hurt. i hurt bad. she hurt me. >> okay, you can look at your child through a glass window, and they wraps the baby tightly in a blanket, propped the babies head up on the body, and set the baby up through a glass window, basically, making it look like there was no decapitation. once again, just defrauding and lying to this young couple.

>> reporter: we did receive a response just now into the newsroom from the attorney of that doctor who is being sued, tracy saint julian. they indicate that she followed the standard of care and claim that the decapitation happened after the baby was already dead. "dr. saint julian was faced with a dire emergency where the mother's life was in peril, as well as the babies. once it became clear that the baby did not survive the underlying severe complication of delivery, the priority shifted to saving the mother's life, which was, thankfully, accomplished. >> isabel rosales, thanks so much for that reporting. we will be right back. 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. growing up, my parents wanted me to become a doctor or an engineer. those are good careers! but i chose a different path. first, as mayor and then in the legislature. i enshrined abortion rights in our california constitution. in the face of trump, i strengthened hate crime laws and lowered the costs for the middle class. now i'm running to bring the fight to congress. you were always stubborn. and on that note, i'm evan low, and i approve this message.

in las vegas is electric, the taylor swift energy is electric, in play, exciting. it is reaching new heights. >> live at radio row there. how is the vibe? >> well, i want to know what type of snacks. are we talking chicken wings? are we talking nachos? >> wings, i have a buffalo chicken dip. a lot of buffalo chicken things. >> let's go, buffalo. welcome to radio row here in the first ever super bowl here

in las vegas. you have nfl stars, entertainment stars walking around. i just talked to legendary patriots tight end rob gronkowski. he is as having the super bowl in vegas is a double whammy, because you have the super bowl and all the extra attention you get. while the sporting world has her eyes focused here on this chiefs 49ers matchup, the swifties nation has their eyes focused on taylor in tokyo. check out the scenes, rocking the concert. energy there is also off the charts. she is an absolute megastar, right? well, her boyfriend plays for the chiefs, who are looking for their back-to-back super bowl titles. he was asked what he has learned from taylor about being a superstar and all the fame. listen to what he says. >> worldwide fame is a lot different than just being famous in kansas city. i have juggled the perception of my focus, and i think kind of being aware of that, i never wanted to make the people on this team and in the kansas city chiefs building feel like i was not focused on the task

at hand, winning football games. i love this game, i love coming to work. being able to juggle that and make sure everybody realizes my focus is in the right area, especially when i am in the building and there is no distraction, i think that is been the biggest one. >> all right, so travis also says those bets that are out there on whether he is going to propose to taylor after, he said that's crazy talk. this is radio row, more than 6000 credentialed media, for more than 20 countries around the world to taken this first ever vaguest super bowl. i'm going to step over here to this aristocrat gaming machine, and i'm going to press my luck to see if we can get something rocking. let's go. i think i won. i think i won us a bunch of chicken wings. bringing the back for you. >> but i have to cut them? congratulations. i will make you some wings. all

right, thank you so much for that. we cannot wait, have so much fun . right now we are waiting on secretary of state tony blinken, expected to speak just minutes from now. that is the room where he will speak, it is going to be much more interesting, i promise you. stay with us, we'll be right back.

we are watching the senate floor right no
