4:00 am
reality is, there isn't a path >> not only his two were to both sides of the same rhetoric not funny. it's a potential disaster for democracy because it was never my intention to say out loud what i saw with my and then brain can do better >> good morning, everyone. i'm john berman with audie cornish here in new york. phil and poppy are off this morning and new this morning. alexey navalny's mother making a personal plea to vladimir putin to hand over her son's body. now she just released a video standing outside the siberian prison where he died. she is telling vladimir putin, let me finally see my son, navalny's team says the russian government is refusing to release his body for at least a couple of weeks to conduct some sort of chemical examination navalny's wife is suggesting her husband may have been poisoned again with nerve
4:01 am
agent. cnn's melissa bell is live in paris, was a what else are you hearing from navalny's mother in this message directly to putin? >> well, as we spoke about earlier audie, what we'd heard is from dmitry peskov, the kremlin spokesman, pushing back against that video, we'd heard from yulia navalnaya, the widow. widow of alexei navalny, a very strong message she sent yesterday accusing vladimir putin of being behind her from her husband's death. now, this morning, the kremlin pushing back against that suggesting that neither peskov nor vladimir putin has seen the video message almost immediately afterwards, we had a very strong tweet from alexei navalny's widow pushing back, saying, once again, hand us back. alexei navalny's body. and then this very dramatic video now but you're about to see as alexei navalny's seven year-old mother, who is standing outside the notorious polar wolf colony, where he breathed his last breaths my
4:02 am
espionage hoots behind me is the ik three polar wolf colony, where my son, alexei navalny died >> on february 16. i haven't been able to see him for five days. they won't give me his body they don't even tell me where he is. i'm addressing you, vladimir putin of the solution to the issue depends only on you. >> this let me >> finally see my sunday. i demand that alex's body be immediately handed over. so that i can bury him humanely. >> now, for start, the remarkable courage of this woman who's traveled to the nearly 2000 kilometers northeast of moscow to this extremely cold, difficult to region to stand there very bravely defying authorities and calling for the release of her sons corpse quite extraordinary. i think what both we've heard from her and from alexey navalny's wife this morning suggests that they're not going to take this lying
4:03 am
down. they're going to continue to make as much noise about this as they can and to continue to be a thorn in the side of russian authorities. well, we'd also heard yesterday was yulia navalnya heading to brussels and urging european lawmakers not to recognize the russian election that student x month at this stage. that's highly expected to deliver vladimir putin the fifth term that he seeks. >> all right. melissa bell. thank you very much for that. >> russian >> forces are advancing this morning after seizing control of a key ukrainian town. ukraine's army is under intense pressure at several critical points along the front lines. >> president biden, tearing into republicans for failing to pass an aid bill for ukraine is calling it a big mistake. dake house speaker mike johnson, also facing global criticism for his lack of action. cnn's nick paton walsh, is there in kherson, ukraine and nic to begin the ukrainian military, is closely watching the movements of russian troops. what do you think that they're preparing for?
4:04 am
>> yeah, we've heard now for two days in a row from ukrainian forces saying that they have repelled a russian biddu to advance in zaporizhzhia region near a village called robatina, tiny place. frankly, we would near it during the summer as that counter offensive began. and they claim that it's placed where russia has put a lot of effort in and has been essentially repelled. it would money fears just after i've felt that would be the focal point of another russian in a and that appears to have been the case. and ukraine i think caught in this complex task, it has to put both projects for frailty to suggest to its western backers the things that all not entirely right on the front lines, but at the time to not also sound like they're losing. nobody wants to back a winner, particularly not republicans. loser in a particular republicans in congress. and then i want to spark concern amongst their own population here as well. and so, yes, we've heard about robatina and the suggestion that's holding ukraine also
4:05 am
claiming it took down two russian fighter jets in the east over the last 24 hours. but concerns all up and down the front line here in kupiansk can be harder kyiv to the northeast around that defka itself and also around bakhmut, which fell to the russians after equally bloody and brutal campaign like that, which we saw rand abdivka, that there may be some potential russian advances there. so a very messy few weeks ahead, tier two weeks, we're congress are simply not in session, are able to even think about moving this aid urgently needed aid package forwards. but ultimately, a russian force here that is clearly resurgence. and now has the opportunity to redeploy the forces it used an avdiivka somewhere else along the front line. and that's what has everybody deeply nervous. >> it's nick paton walsh. thank you now, here in the us and a few hours, nikki haley is set to deliver remarks on the state of the presidential race and you'll be in her home state of south carolina ahead of the primary there yesterday, she accused president biden and
4:06 am
donald trump of dividing the country, making it clear that despite the polling numbers, she's not going quietly i promise you this on sunday, i'm headed to michigan and then we're going to super tuesday >> states and we're going to keep on going >> cnn's eva mckend joins us now from washington and eva, can you talk about the case that she's continuing to make right. in terms of staying in this race well, audie and phil, she says that she is the person that can unify the country. and to the extent that we can measure that democrats are showing up to her rallies. i can tell you that. so that is an indication that her message has a broader appeals and just the average republican voter. it's not uncommon to meet people at her rallies even in south carolina, who voted for president biden in 2020. >> but haley is >> expected to continue to essentially tell voters that she's in this for the long haul. she's resisted this pressure campaign for weeks to
4:07 am
drop out. and this state of the great speech sort of gives her the opportunity to crystallize her mission. going going into the closing days here, part of that strategy has also been confronting the former president, arguing, trump is just too distracted to engage the voters that republicans will need in a general election. let's listen i'll get last week, he lost another case on immunity. he'll be tried as citizen trump republicans lost a bill on israel they lost another bill on my orcas and the border the republican party chair lost her job. and donald trump's fingerprints were on all of it. everything he touches, we lose so we're just days to go until the primary. she remains the clear underdog according to polling, a winthrop university poll has trump at 65%. and you can see haley there at 29%.
4:08 am
this is her home state, which she's still telling voters and telling us she will head to michigan and for tuesday states immediately after the south carolina primary, i think the main message we get from haley today is that she's not giving up the fight any of even cover for a while now, how have you seen her message evolve week-by-week? have not day by day? >> well, certainly the attacks on trump have become sharper that it was something that she was really reticent to do at the outset. she would say that this is not a personal thing between me and trump. i enjoyed being in his administration. he was the right precedent for the right time. >> we're >> getting less of that these days she is more consistently pointing to the chaos he inspires and says he's just too much of a liability in a general election. and she's just beating back these voices that essentially say she can't do it. she's not looking at the reality here. she thinks that
4:09 am
she can i guess, pull off an upset in the weeks ahead, john audie, right. >> ivan maken for us, eva great to see you this morning newly released footage from the idf reportedly shows israeli hostages inside gaza as negotiations reach a critical phase. >> and >> donald trump proudly showing off an endorsement from one of vladimir putin's closest allies, former trump national security adviser john bolton, joins us next to discuss vegas >> story of sin city sunday at ten on cnn t-mobile build a 5g networks so powerful, it goes beyond the expected. >> and >> now t-mobile 5g internet for homes and businesses is here >> also. hear, hear >> here, here even here. whatever shape your home or business is, t-mobile is bringing high-speed internet and towns across america, only 15 minutes set up and just 50

4:14 am
death of putin critic alexey navalny or say anything critical of putin at all in the aftermath? val1, these death. >> so >> when an op-ed for the hill yesterday, former trump national security adviser john bolton wrote, quote, killing navalny is evidenced that putin feels back on top confident in his rule, untroubled about either domestic or international pushback in ambassador john bolton joins us now ambassador, thank you for being with us moments ago, we saw pictures of alexey navalny's mother outside the siberian prison. were navalny died pleading for the release of the body of alexey navalny. what do you read in to the reluctance or failure of russia to turn the body over? >> well, quite likely they try it again with poison may maybe even using novichok again, which didn't work the first time. and they're waiting for the evidence of the poisoning to dissipate. so it's not subject to uncovering during an autopsy. look, these are very
4:15 am
cold blooded people. this doesn't bother them and despite some demonstrations inside russia which had been quickly swept up by the police, i think putin's domestic position with navalny gone with prigozhin, gone with elections coming in a few weeks, he shorted when he feels very much in control we read a quote from your op-ed where you say he's untroubled by domestic opposition or international pushback. what does he see in the united states specifically, in the us congress that makes him so on troubled well, i think congress is not acting in the national interest at this point, not being able to get aid for ukraine, >> not being able to get aid for taiwan, aid for israel, funding and policy changes on the southern border. and he sees donald trump looming in the background, right? the moment he sees joe biden and the white house, who threatened severe consequences for russia several years ago when navalny returned to russia and was
4:16 am
immediately in prison and yet we haven't seen any severe consequences and i would say the same is true for western european leaders. were all very good at expressing out rage. but when it comes to doing something about it, i think putin is not so worried. >> liz cheney, refer to certain members of congress as the putin kakas >> what do >> you think of that assessment? >> well, look, i think it's objectively supportive of russia not to provide assistance to ukraine and part of the problem here in both parties, frankly, as we haven't had leaders in recent years who explain what the benefit to the united states of nato is. we're not providing these resources verses to ukraine out of charity. we're doing it because it's our national self-interest to do it. and yet, president biden, for example, has not made that case. he talks about authoritarianism versus democracy, which i think is relatively on interesting to
4:17 am
most people. and republicans haven't been able to explain concretely why peace since stability in europe benefit the united states. >> what happens if mike johnson doesn't allow a vote on ukraine aid, who wins >> well, i think russia wins clearly. this is something that wants once was a time when we liked by partisanship and foreign policy. i never thought the demo our crowds were as strong as they should be, but we did have some evidence of bipartisanship. and i'm afraid we're we're on the verge of losing it. i think worse, i think the isolationist virus is loose generally and particularly in the republican party, it's a big problem what do you think donald trump knows about alexey navalny? how much >> well, i suspect very little. i don't recall from my tenure that there was a conversation about in navalny was poisoned in 2020, which is when he really came to trump's
4:18 am
attention for the first time. and when asked whether he thought the russian government was responsible, then in 2020, the president of the united states, with full access to the best intelligence collection in the world, said he didn't have enough information so i don't think he's going to say anything negative about putin. in fact, the only thing he said about navalny is so trying to compare himself to navalny is a victim of a fixed judicial system, which is be hilarious if it weren't so dangerous >> again, so you don't think he cares one way or the other if what happens or what happened to alexei navalny what donald trump cares a bad as what benefits donald trump. so when people look for policy ramifications from what he says or doesn't say they're looking in the wrong direction if he thought condemning navalny would help him, he would do it. and if he doesn't think it brings him any benefit, he'll remain silent. >> so the new york times mbs, this warning published some of alexey navalny's letters from
4:19 am
prison and i'm going to read you something from the new york times said mr. navalny invited that the electoral agenda for former us president donald j. trump looked quote, really scary it says, trump will become president should president biden's health suffer, mr. navalny road from his high security prison cell, doesn't this obvious thing concern the democrats? let's take an parts. donald trump's president, donald trump looked really scary. why do you think that trump looks so scary to alexey navalny >> well, i >> think trump has made it pretty clear he wants to withdraw from nato and i think that should be scared to anybody who worries about defeating russian aggression and not just in ukraine, but really around eastern central europe, central asia. and the prospects of growing linkage between russia and china a lot of people on the republican side are defending trump's
4:20 am
rhetoric about nato, saying he's just bargaining all i can say is repeat. his intention is not to strengthen nato. it's the weekend the nato and ultimately withdraw from it. and i hate to be proven right on this. if trump is elected, but i feel very confident that's what he wants to do. i consider that scary, and i just wanted to also ask because you mentioned that some of the protests have been put down inside russia. we spoken to so many people since friday who hope that alexey navalny's death will somehow spur action resistance inside russia. it doesn't seem like you hold out much hope that his death won't be in vain >> well, hope is not a strategy. i mean, i certainly wish the best for him, but a lot of the democrats are in exile. authoritarian regimes have a long record of success in human history and staying in power all chilling analysis this morning, ambassador john bolton, we do appreciate your time. thank you
4:21 am
>> thank you >> as trump's legal team works to remove fulton county da fani willis and the georgia election interference case and an unexpected source has corroborated some of her claims. we have brand new cnn reporting next backroom deals, cia sequence of fairs, bribery, >> corruption, prostitution or so much more to the store, united states of scandal with jake tapper sunday, a nine on cnn. >> i love your dress >> thanks. >> i splurged a little because liberty mutual customize my car insurance and i saved hundreds that's great. >> i know. right. i've been telling everyone one >> did you hear that >> i just said her first word >> can you say mama? >> never >> can you say on >> how many people did you tell?

4:25 am
that's such an important thing to have the things in the people that you care about are taking care of create your estate plan, not trust, and we'll dot com this situation with wolf blitzer denied it sits on cnn the use of cash has been a key sticking point in the testimony of fulton county >> district attorney fani willis, >> defense attorneys are trying to get willis disqualified from donald trump's georgia election subversion case over her romantic relationship with a top prosecutor. so cnn has spoken to a california man who says he spent two hours at a wine tasting in napa for valley with willis and her then boyfriend, nathan wade, cnn's zach cohen has new reporting on this shoe-leather reporting, and amanda are speaking or shoe leather wine tasting for i don't know how exactly you said, but really good report exact tell us what you've learned here. >> yeah. good morning, guys. looked stand brody told me that he hosted fani willis and nathan wade at acumen winds back in 2023 when they both visited this winery and napa
4:26 am
valley, california. and he distinctly remembers the moment the bill came because it was about $400 and fani willis told him that she was going to pay cash which struck him as odd given in the amount, but take a listen to what he told me about his recollection of their visit to this winery and the moment where we're fani willis foot the bill i ran up to saying and i killed her. i was expecting a credit card, quite frankly, and now she's i'll pay cash so that was set. so i just put the cash and may change for and she was very generous to me so why does this matter right in the hearing last week, we saw defense attorneys really pushed willis on her use of cash because >> they're trying to establish that she and nathan wade had an improper relationship and that she benefited financially from that relationship in the form of him paying for these trips, including trips to napa valley, california. we now know but at least one instance when she paid for nathan wade to visit this winery, but take a listen to what fani willis testified to last week when she was
4:27 am
pushed on her use of cash and the questions around that and what did you pay for on that trip? >> i gave him much less care for their time, probably four or $500 in the un i paid for a bunch of stuff. i think we did too. wine tools that you do, which are pretty expensive >> think i bought him. he likes wine. i don't really like wine to be honest with you. i like grey goose. when i travel, i always take care >> so part of the issue with using cash to is there's obviously no documentation receipt that shows how fani willis and even weighed sort of financial transactions work. but look, again, this is one specific example of an unusual source corroborating at least part of fani willis's tests money last week, i'm sure there'll be much many more questions about fani willis's use of cash or financial relationship with nathan wade. but again, one concrete source in california's saying, look, she paid cash and it was about $400 worth >> and zach just a quick reminder, as you said, this is
4:28 am
important because of to step it really undercuts what defense attorneys are claiming about fani willis, that she benefited financially from her relationship with nathan wade. this is one example where actually she was paying for him to enjoy this wine tasting. >> thanks. so he doesn't even like wine according to fani willis insurance. >> but more at stake than the date. so thanks so much. zach the desperate search for an 11 year-old texas girl missing since last week. that continues. cnn spoke with the sheriff in the case. you'll hear from him next. >> and an alarming number of suspects in washington dc crimes are children. what some people are doing to help do you think there's a crisis right now with kids in dc definitely. definitely a crisis. bad. never seen a nine-year-old and an eight-year-old pull off rob. i never see 12-year-olds do the things that they had to be a

>> i'm elizabeth wagmeister in los angeles. >> in this is cnn i've seen the gas it was >> never my intention to say out loud what i saw with my eyes and then brain so that was jon stewart last night reacting to the backlash from his jokes about president biden's lack of youth. so how is the biden campaign trying to get past the age issue according to new reporting in axios biden officials see next month's state of the union address as a big public reset moment a chance to overcome or at least neutralize concerns about the president's age and vitality
4:47 am
with us now is former obama campaign manager jim messina. so how about that? the state of the union changes everything. >> well, it's time to reset. it's the time to address concerns that it's time to lay out a very clear message about where you're going to take the country we're now in election year 250 some days for the election. it's time to start framing the election. and there's only a few times over the whole nation is going to listen, stay the unions being one of them. >> the last time around he sparred with republicans in the room. there were some interesting moments there. do people feel confident he can have that kind of moment? again, especially there's all these questions about sort his age. >> well, look the best way to address those things as have american voters see him and see him doing his job and saying, go and write out, i agree with you. i think the most viral part of the last day of the union was him going at it with the republicans voters like to see that it was an unscripted moment. those are hard to program as you well, no. so it's unclear whether we'll have another one of those. but what is really true is voters have
4:48 am
to see this guy doing his job and that's why stay the union is such a crucial moment for the campaign. >> if just having voters see him more could fix it. once they have voter seeing him more already. >> well, they are they're starting to do that. he's doing more events on the trail. he is out there. it's a facing operation. he still has to day job, right? the most important thing he has to do is be the president of the united states and then a candidate. second, we're still a ways away here. so you'll see the ramp up. but there are big moments, really, if you think about the three moments you get you get the state of union, you get the democratic national convention, and you get a debate that's kind of it. these are big moments that they're really going to prepare for their other moments he could have a statistician, nate silver has been writing on his newsletter about the white house kind of it being timed to put up or shut up in terms of dealing with biden's age. but specifically, he's talked about what biden can do in terms of interacting with the press. he
4:49 am
says, biden should do for lengthy sit-down interviews with non friendly sources friendly, meaning, not how style nonpartisan reporters with a track record of basking tough questions and also noting that biden declined to sit down for an interview during the super bowl. >> can you >> talk about that? desantis learned the hard way, maybe that he should have engaged with more mainstream press later in the race. what about biden? >> i think it's interesting what biden did instead of the super bowl interview. what did he do? he went on tiktok launched his account on tiktok which had way more people see that, that a traditional super bowl interview. so i think there we're going to look for alternative ways to use the new media ecosystem to get their message out. i'm not sure i'd trust nate silver advice about the press. i think the biden campaign is going to find their own way to do this. there'll be interviews, they'll do all the things that they traditionally do. but i was excited to see them take the tiktok moment because it's a new way to communicate with voters so they really need to
4:50 am
communicate with john stewart, made fun of the tiktok moment. he thought it was cringy. >> jon stewart's older than i am. like, let's let's talk about who the voters are, who are on tiktok, who are biden's base young voters, african american latino voters. and so i'm not going to trust you on stewards view of that. i trust people and you look at the viral numbers that tiktok got, just go on. tiktok and look. millions of americans for the first time in engaging with that content. and that's what campaigns want. >> write something they can control, which is what celebrities like about it as well. so now that they have control of that, now that they have way out avenues of sharing, have they landed on one cohesive, coherent message in reply to the age question? >> yeah, i'm going to do my job and you're going to see me out there. >> but this is the one that's been they've been doing a couple of months now re like, it takes a wet look yeah. when i ran a >> presidential candidate, what you realize is you have to say the same thing over and over and over until people finally get it. you got to continue to do at repetition matters. and
4:51 am
so they just started this like give them a little time >> so robert hur, the special counsel, is going to testify before congress, not long after the state of the union. yep. robert hur, who in his report talked about the age of the president how problematic is this for the white house? and how do you think they should address that testimony? >> well, look, i think it's clear that that's not traditional testimony from white house counsel as the former white house deputy chief of staff, i asked for reports like that. i've never seen political language like that. so i think people get that's a political document. but to both of your points, ages an issue and they have to address it and they're going to continue to address it. i don't think the her report changed anything. we've got to continue to get the president out there, have people answer their questions about about what he wants to do to make their lives better and the report didn't change that would you go after the messenger? would you advise democrats to go hard on robert hur droughts only because it's not a fair report, it's not what he was asked to do. i've never seen political language like that and we got to call you sometimes the truth matters
4:52 am
here. and so we had to say the truth, which is none of that was factual or relevant to. >> just lastly, here, yes. already, you know, every campaign that i've covered, every losing campaign that i've covered, i don't know who knows what's going to happen here, but after losing campaign, one of the things that campaign managers try to just always say if, if only the voters could have seen more of the real candidate here? yeah. can you say well, 100% certainty that seeing more for of joe biden will help his campaign 1,000% like and don't just take my democratic word for it. you have republican members of congress in the sentence say they've spent time with him. he's on the ball, he's doing what he has to do. foreign leaders are saying the same thing, so, yes. and when there's a campaign, when there's a time that will help joe biden jim messina, great to see. >> thank you. thank you >> now, the biden administration might ease vehicle emission rules. it proposed just last year what that could mean for electric cars fashion moves fast. >> setting trends is our

4:57 am
money this morning? ron, to you by e trade from morgan stanley drain commission free today, we'd know account minimums >> this morning. the biden administration is considering relaxing those strict rules for vehicle emissions proposed just last year. here, and giving automakers more time to meet requirements. that's according to at least two sources familiar with the plan. president biden has made the transition to electric vehicles a key issue of his tenure, pointing to climate benefits and positive economic impacts cnn's vanessa yurkevich joins us now. so this is supposed to be a big deal for the big three, the auto industry, et cetera. what does this announcement mean for them? >> it's >> not so much a >> change in the requirement, but it's a delay in the requirement just to remind folks, the biden administration wants to see 50% of all new vehicles be electric vehicle by 2030. and what we're hearing
4:58 am
from sources right now is that the epa is potentially looking to delay that a little bit, still getting to that 50%, but delaying it beyond 2030, are they supposed to be made in the us, are sold in the us, made in the us. this is for really the us to try to catch up with foreign automakers who've done a little little bit of a better job with this. >> but it's >> not so much the production of vehicles. it's the sales of vehicles 1.2 million electric vehicles were sold in 2023 that was a record, but that's just 10% of the overall market. and then you have, as i mentioned, us, automakers lagging behind in terms the sales for the foreign automakers you also have a situation where electric vehicles are incredibly expensive. they're like a luxury vehicle over $50,000 for an electric vehicle on average, compared to all other cars, $48,000. so that is an investment by the consumer also. >> it's very >> difficult to charge an electric vehicle these days,
4:59 am
there's a lot of charging ports even here in new york city and across the country. so it really limits consumers from being able to take these long cross-country trips that they want to take. this is an opportunity perhaps by the epa and the biden administration too. but allow for the us to try to position themselves a little bit better here in the us for consumers, right? >> everyone needs to go look in your wallets right now because there's just been this huge credit card deal essentially, we're capital one buying discover for $35 >> this announcement coming late last night and this would be a huge deal if it does go through in terms of passing regulatory oversight, this deal, capital one buying discover card, would increase their customer base by 300 million. and the key factor here is that capital one issues credit cards, but discover issues and processes credit card payments. and that means they get to a large portion of
5:00 am
all of the fees, the merchant fees that discover gets from their customers. it is going to be a process. this is going to probably take a year if this deal ends up closing. but ultimately for consumers all of us, nothing is going to change right now and nothing probably will change except for maybe just the name of your credit card people are so obsessed with their credit card perks. i guarantee you, catherine righted me capital one does not want to mess with that discover base who really loves everything that discover has to offer? but if there are changes, customers need 45 days heads up in order to decide if they want to keep their cart or not. >> so you'll get a warning. a >> warning, or if that's your courage. thank you very much. >> and cnn >> this morning continues right now. >> what does the humidity? this is helping for how l
