and control satellites. some lawmakers think president biden should declassify all of the information about it and make it publics and it's katie bone loss joins us now quite a whirlwind day of reporting yesterday and it was fascinating to watch the reporting play out as you guys were unraveling various pieces of this hour by hour, where exactly do we stand on what this is all about? >> yeah so it felt what we know right now is that this intelligence describes what officials tell cnn is a russian effort to develop a new nuclear anti-satellite system for use in space. now, important to emphasize here that it is not clear at this point whether or not this is in reference to a nuclear clear armed anti-satellite system or a nuclear powered anti-satellite system, which is obviously a pretty critical distinction, but we do know that this kind of system in theory is designed to target america's vast network of both commercial and military satellites to include the satellites that provide vital command and control for

the united states over its nuclear arsenal. now, also important to note, as you mentioned, that we are told that this system is not yet operational. it's not an orbit and it's not clear at this point how far the russian technology has even progressed officials describing this to us as a concerning long-term strategic threat, something important there's something america should be responding to, but not necessarily an immediate emergency. as the chairman of the house intelligence committee had originally portrayed it in his very cryptic public statement yesterday that he had information on a national security threat. so take a listen to what the chairman or sorry, the speaker of the house, mike johnson had to say late he during the day trying to take down the temperature a little bit >> i want to assure the american people there's no need for public alarm, steady hands, or other. wheel. we're working on it and there's no need for law johnson. i excuse me turner now actively pushing for the biden ministration to declassify and release as much

of the information as he can about this intelligence, but still lots of questions phil and poppy about why the chairman of the house intelligence committee moved at this point to try to push this issue into the public sphere. >> yeah. yeah. >> a couple of key legislative debates ongoing as well, which i think some people attend pointing to katie bo lillis, ensure another very busy day ahead for you. thanks so much. let's bring in cnn, national security analyst and former director of national intelligence, james clapper direction. appreciate your time. this morning. i want to start with kind of how katie bo laid out the dynamics of the house intelligence committee chair putting out statement that is very cryptic, surprising everyone and definitely surprising national security adviser, jake sullivan, who is supposed to brief the gang of eight today. he said it was on the books what's your sense of why here? >> well a couple of things. it could be either >> chairman turner who is very serious minded member of congress, is trying to garner

support perhaps for support aid to ukraine that's one possibility, at least one on media report in the washington post speculated that it's an effort to gain support for what's called section 700 to the foreign intelligence surveillance, which is a crucial navy deep crucial tool used for their collection of foreign intelligence. that's quite important for the intelligence community and the washington post report says that this intelligence was derived via section seven or two of the foreign until on its valence out. i don't know but that's certainly a possibility because what he did is certainly attention getting and very, very unusual, particularly in light of the >> forthcoming briefing that jake sullivan talked about. so i don't know what the

motivation was. there was a very crucial part of the us national intelligence committee 30 called the national air and space intelligence center, which is wright-patterson air force base in ohio, which is in his district chairman turner is very connected and supportive of that organization. so i wonder where he got a briefing or something on this threat. >> the >> only other thing i'd say fill is in the in uk in context is that both the russians and it perhaps even more so the chinese have very capable array of space weapons, meaning to space in space or from space and so i think a >> lot of them are quite scary if you consider them, but if you think about them. >> so i >> think this is one of those threats and it is apparently,

according to katie bo's reporting not yet operational. >> what do you make? director of my turner's call for the biden administration to declassify this. is that necessary? is that wise? >> well, this is probably the classic problem you have with intelligence being transparent with it. and if you do so, are you compromising sources and methods? and i think that's somewhat the dilemma that the intelligence community would face. by declassifying everything about it, or even some things about i think potentially even the romo like this revelation is potentially damaging from that standpoint, i don't know the details here so the un is an installation has been pretty aggressive about us intelligence and declassifying it and so i think it will lean forward, but it will be tempered by the concern

about protection sources and methods yeah. >> well, director clapper, thank you very much for joining us this morning on on all of this >> france on just a few hours, donald trump will be in yet another courtroom this time here in new york for his stormy daniels hush money case. the other case and its orbit making news as well today, that's next a new body camera footage of a florida officer opening fire on a suspect inside of car after thought, he heard gunshots. it was actually an acorn united states of scandal with jake tapper sunday night on cnn. >> old spice gentlemen, super hydration, body wash. and now 24/7 moisture realization with vitamin b3 are you noticing all the old spice >> tempur-pedic design, the ergo postmark base to help you fall asleep more easily. it's gentle massage and relaxing

both of these cases. kristen holmes in new york, zach cohen is down in atlanta forest. where in the world as kristen holmes will usually tell me whether we're doing courthouse or campaign in trump world today. today it's courthouse what do we expect? why did he decide to go to this case are to this courthouse specifically >> yeah phil, today is courthouse and it's also freezing and not west palm beach. i just want to note that i'm no longer in west palm beach and i am very aware of that. now, donald trump did choose to go to this tree at trial because he was convinced by his advisers that this was more important. this is a very critical day for the former president because he is likely to learn whether or not he's going to have to sit through a criminal trial during the campaign season ahead of that november 2024 election. now his lawyers are calling on the judge to dismiss this case entirely. they argue that it's political, but i'm told by legal experts that that's not likely to happen. the other crucial thing that we are learning today is whether or not that march 25th trial date is going to stand. that is the

big question. or donald trump and his team going to have to try and figure out how to navigate a campaign for president while he is also sitting in a courtroom in new york's, let's talk about what exactly this case is. just a reminder. this is one of the four criminal cases that he's facing, it is the hush money case. he's accused of alleged alleged cover up scree scheme, and it is falsifying business records essentially to hide reimbursement payments to michael cohen, payments that michael cohen allegedly made to adult film star stormy daniels to cover up in a ahead of the 2020 in 2016, excuse me, you saying 2024 election now, donald trump has pleaded not guilty to 34 charges. he has denied having the affair, but really the big crucial thing today does that trial date stand? do we learn that donald trump is likely to sit through a criminal trial while again, on his third bid for the white house, it's astonishing. >> zach in >> georgia, another astonishing thing is going to happen today. the lead prosecutor in this

georgia election subversion case is going to be in the witness box, is going to take the stand and testify about whether basically there was in propriety. right? whether there was financial gain for the da in this case that could lead to dismissal. what do we need to know >> i think you're exactly right, poppy. and that was something that donald trump almost couldn't pass up. yeah, of course did decide to go to new york and attend the hearing in the hush money case. but here in fulton county, we are going to potentially see fani willis the district attorney who is overseeing the georgia conspiracy, election subversion case. here in fulton county. we could see her have to take the stand and testify about this personal relationship. she is admitted to having with her top prosecutor, nathan wade, and really the question at hand here is not if they had a relationship, he's already admitted they did, but it's whether she benefited financially from there her relationship that's what defense attorneys in this case are alleging and listen to what the judge in this case, scott mcafee said on monday when he told voters on both sides that we need to have this hearing today.

>> i think it's possible that the facts alleged by the defendant could result in disqualification. i think an evidentiary hearing must occur to establish the record on those core allegations, the state has admitted a relationship existed. and so what remains to be proven as the existence and extent of any financial benefit? fed again, if they're, if they're even was one. so because i think it's possible that the facts alleged by the defendant could result in disqualification. i think an evidentiary hearing must occur to establish the record on those core allegations. >> so. if, it does, allegations are proven to the judge ultimately decides to disqualify fani willis sources inside the da's office have told me that they feared that could derail his entire case. so really, it's not an understatement to say that georgia election subversion case could hang in the balance with this hearing starting today yeah. that's so interesting, it really could zach. thank you. and atlantic kristen holmes in new york. sorry, it's not warmer or glad you're there so the actual courtroom where trump will

continue to hash out all of this and then there's the court of public opinion, right? you guys, the voters and the relationship between the two. there's only one person qualified to break all that done press that is our senior data reporter, harry enten. good morning. good morning. >> what do we need to know? yeah. what do we need to know? i think what you need to know is that the public views these cases very, very seriously. let's start here. charges against trump are very serious. the georgia election case, look at this 53% of americans, the majority believed that the charges in that case are very serious. so if those charges perhaps got dismissed, that would be very, very bad news for perhaps those who want donald trump to be in trouble in the new york hush money case. on the other hand, even if he's more legal trouble there in terms of the charges against them being very serious, just 31% of americans believe that they are very serious. now, if you look on a slightly different question, the truth and do something illegal. again, look here, the majority of americans believe in fact he did do something illegal on the georgia election case while in the new york hush

money case, just 34%, just a third, believe he did something illegally or so very different cases when we're looking at this from the public point of view. i mean, we're public opinion >> really matters in my view is how does it? in fact, the election, right, like how are voters viewing those things they may think he's guilty and still vote for him. we've seen that over the course of the last couple of years. how does that carry over? yeah. how does that carry over? so take a look here. charges disqualify trump from the presidency, if true, nearly a majority, 49% say that if the charges are true in the georgia election they would in fact disqualify him. compare that to just 30% in the new york hush money case. and perhaps most important, as i want to break this down among undecided voters and a biden trump matchup. look here in the georgia election case at the charges are true. they would disqualify trump from the presidency among those undecided voters. 58% say they would disqualify him. and the georgia election case compared to just a third and the new york hush money case. so the fact is that georgia election case could be the one if in

fact he was in fact convicted, that could change the tie this election versus the new york hush money case, perhaps considerably less. so great numbers, erin. thank you. as always and be sure to watch cnn special coverage of both trials that starts morning at nine. >> authorities are on the hunt this morning for more information and a motive and the mass shooting as chiefs super bowl parade of next a missouri legislature, who was at that parade? it's child. >> just tell us what he saw >> from starting strong to it's been a week >> so many ways to save life ready, wallet, happy. that's 365 by whole foods market the edge and rash of moderate to severe eczema disrupts my skin night and day despite treatment, it's still not under control but now i have revoke or invoke is a once-daily pill that reduces the itch and helps clear the rash of eczema fast

blitzer denied it six point cnn >> this morning, police in kansas city are trying to figure out who opened fire and wyhe at the end of the chiefs super bowl victory rally. >> so one person was killed more than 20 people? are injured. it is estimated that more than 1 million people were there yesterday afternoon for the celebration, including jackson county, missouri legislator, many a barca and his five-year-old daughter, camila, you see them right there. look, all those smiles. it was supposed to be a day of so much joy, man, he joins us now. thank you for being with us and i'm so sorry about what happened and such terrible circumstances to join us on. you were there with your child? i don't think anyone can imagine what that's like. can you take us to those moments? >> yeah, it was collecting confetti to chaos. within moments, we were there. thankfully, as a sponsor for the parade and we were celebrating with the team with the hunt family, with coach reid and all of a sudden,

through the partitions, a wave of people come rushing through screaming gun. ron, police are coming and i immediately grab camila because she's so little and i was watching people being trampled i picked her up and i ran into a restaurant along with members of the team with hunt family members, and we hid i ran into the bathroom and i blocked the doors and she continued to ask me that it's it broke my heart to think about the reality that my daughter knows what this is. >> that was to be honest, my heart stopped last night when i read that happened to you and i'm trying to figure out as a parent how to get your head around being in that moment hearing that from your child, how is she today? >> she's a, sleeping. >> but, you know, it was

>> difficult because my wife called immediately when she found out and i had to decline it. right. because this is the protocol. don't answer the phone, don't make noise and i was frantically trying to text or as my phone was dying because naturally was the end of the parade aid into the celebration and i turned to twitter because i was i was getting more texts from people telling me what was happening on the outside while we're locked in a bathroom in the basement of union station you posted on x yesterday that you knew lisa lopez galvan, who was the woman killed in all of this. can you tell us about her? >> yeah. lisa leaves behind an incredible legacy. she comes from a very large family of civic leaders actively and regularly engaged in both the latino community of kansas city and broad said that she is a treasurer carrying the culture through her deejay on a local public radio station. she was the light at every party she was oftentimes the voluntary dj

moment of humility is incredible. and it just a testament to his leadership and generosity but that is the sentiment that is kansas city. it encompasses who we are. now's the time for people like me to get up and get to work so what what does that work mean? we heard that powerful statement from the mayor from a number of the players we've heard saying, you know, when are we going to have more gun laws? when is there going to be more gun control? you've got power, you guys to do something. what are you going to do >> yeah. so sadly, the state of missouri is that petri dish of bad policy when it comes to guns? and i think we can no longer look towards our state are super majority of republican leadership there has done nothing but make it worse. and so immediately when i knew do that, my daughter and i were safe and that we get back to hero ahead. my focus turned towards the county. i immediately contacted the county general counsel's office and helped strapped our legislation and said i need something on my desk by monday. we've talked about it for a

advocacy from our next guest district court judge, esther salas >> what we cannot accept is when we are forced to live in fear for our lives because personal information, like our home addresses, can easily be obtained by anyone seeking to do us or our families harm salas is advocacy came from a place of deep tragedy and grief. the loss of her son, daniel >> danny was the love of our life. from the moment he was born, from the moment that little boy came to this world to you as the center of our universe. >> but in 2020, a gunman who had once represented a case in her court and founder address online went to her home intending to kill her. instead. he killed her beloved 20 year-old son, daniel when he answered the door danny was downstairs talking to me as he

always did. he said, keep talking to me, mom. i love talking >> and it was at that exact second that the doorbell rang >> and before i could >> tell him, dad handle it shot up the stairs. and the next thing i years and then i hear no. i remember running upstairs and it was so loud. i almost thought it was like mini bombs or something. and then i saw danny line perpendicular to the door holding his chest and she lost her son in that moment, her husband was shot three times. he survived. and judge esther salas joins us this morning. >> your strength is remarkable. >> it really is and for people who don't know right behind you, that is a portrait of your son, daniel. >> talk

>> about your fight right now in his name as we hear dire statistics like that well, good morning, poppy and we continue to advocate for increased judicial security all across this nation >> we have >> we have to do something. >> this isn't getting any better >> we see >> now with the new statistics we heard from our united states marshall so director davis, about the rise. it isn't getting any better. >> and >> we now know and we have the evidence to say something needs to be done across this nation. and in all us territories to protect all judicial officers. >> local, state, a federal judicial officers what, and so the market continued to do what we need to do to make sure his memory is alive, but to make sure that all judges are safe, democracy mandates that. and that's why we continue to do
