8:00 am
having issues. now, what can at&t customers do about all this? well even if your cell phone service is down you can still access wi-fi through your wi-fi chip in your phone. so if you're inside a building or in an office at home, you could use wi-fi to still make calls in many cases, over that, that technology without using the cell phone signal that is currently out the service for tens of thousands, if not more across the country. kate >> that that's a helpful tip in a band-aid for the moment, right? but we are also reports that 911 services were impacted by the outage. what are you hearing about this? >> yeah. we've seen social media posts for many, many emergency services around the country saying, hey, at&t kuster's may have trouble making calls to 911. a lot of them are recommending that again, if you are having trouble getting in touch with first responders, use an alternative method such as a landline or cell phone that
8:01 am
uses another network service like verizon or t-mobile. they've even recommended in some situations, using social media to try and get in touch with police or fire departments. and in some situations, we've also seen tweets from fire departments saying make sure if your fire alarm goes off that fire alarm may not necessarily be able to connect with or contact the fire department automatically through its own dedicated telecommunications service. so make sure if your fire alarm goes off make a call to 911 just to be sure. now, on the other hand, we have also seen ports that people have been making test calls to 911, trying to make sure that they can get through if if need be, and the massachusetts state police has been warning people that, hey, our naimah one call centers have been flooded by these so-called test calls. and please do not do that. do not call nine 11, just to make sure that you can get through because that bandwidth, that
8:02 am
capacity is really needed for real emergencies. so if you're concerned about your ability to access 911, just place a call to another individual, someone you know, a family member or loved one, and if your service if you're services working, if that call goes through, that means you will be able to call 911 if you need to, but please do not call 911 directly from your phone. that's according to the massachusetts state police. so all in all, this issue is causing widespread disruption. kate and it's particularly concerning because it's affecting public safety if d and emergency services, who's network at&t actually does does manage and is responsible for. so i imagine there'll be probably many questions going forward not only about how this happened, but what at&t will do to be held accountable? >> brian. thank you so much for tracking before it's all throughout the morning and it's not over yet john, with us now is former >> dhs senior official, chris krebs. he's currently serves as
8:03 am
the cheap public policy officer at sentinel one, chris. thank you so much for being with us. you know, it's 11 o2 am at&t is still given no specific cause for its be going on a long time. 5678 hours. what questions do you have this morning >> well, good morning. and based on my conversations with government officials and industry experts, they're still trying to figure out root cause of what happened here is i think you just discussing and the opening segment effectively what we're looking at as i understand it, is more than likely just a technical issue. >> you >> heard about heard about peering is very likely not a cyber attack and unfortunately, we tend to rush to judgment these days, particularly with some of the threads that we're hearing in the where that's coming out of the federal government. so i would be looking to understand what was the technical issue they do happen. ruling out any sort of
8:04 am
malicious actor. and then looking to see what kind of go forward plan is by at&t. >> why does it take so long to get a specific answer about what's going? don or what went wrong >> well, that's it is a very large network and they're very complex systems and they do want to have accuracy and sometimes it does take time to sort through the fog of the incident or the crisis to understand what happened and more importantly, you want to make sure that when you commute indicate what's going on that you have a plan, what you're doing to address it, to ensure that you can reassure everyone that going forward that the issue will be taken care of. >> now, i know you said that there was a rush to judgment, but i am curious given all, you know and how much you've studied this and written about. and i've heard you talk about this before. i mean, what what goes through your mind? when you wake up, grab your cell phone and you see at the top, sos >> yeah. >> unfortunately, we do in this
8:05 am
day because there is plenty of bad actor activity from criminal activity, we just heard earlier this week that the us government and other allies i disrupted about a 23% player in the cybercrime ecosystem, lockbit. and that's a great thing. we also have heard over the last couple of weeks that we have are really the last year, frankly, that the chinese are targeting chinese communist party and their security services are targeting us critical infrastructure, including communication system i unfortunately had a nickname and my time at dhs of catastrophic krebs and i do tend to jump to the worst. it leads to rule it out first. so you do want to understand what the potential worst-case outcome here is in work back from there. but it, of course immediately jumps to mind. because the sorts of things that china and russia and others are trying to do in their broader infrastructure disruption campaign and activities. but it is good to know that there are competent response teams at at&t and elsewhere working hard on this
8:06 am
crisis. and i i'm fairly confident they'll get it resolved quickly and let us know what happened. >> well, let me ask you this cattle that's profit krebs. we as consumers, what is it that we can do to prepare for this? because brian fung was saying one of the things that people are being told as though you use a land line to call 911 and i know there are a lot of people out there saying once a landline we got rid of our landline a long time ago. how do people need to prepare for a moment when the cell phone network does go down for many hours >> well, yeah, there are a series of a number of different redundancies built in for one, you mentioned wifi calling, wifi callings, great option also ensuring that you have in your community or in your neighborhood, nearby other folks you can talk to you. not everyone is on at&t there and there are a number of different providers that are operational right now. so it's always a good time just to reach out and check in with other folks. then i think coming down the road, you will also have other
8:07 am
options like satellite up links on some of the more modern devices like iphones, that allow you to make emergency calls false. if you do not have a normal cellular signal. >> yeah, i do think it's safe to say cyber attack or not. it's not a matter of if there will be a major outage even longer than this one. but maybe a when it will happen this is this is a great point. i think more than anything right now, what we're seeing is that we are increasingly dependent pen and in every aspect of our lives, whether it's work in our homes and in our communities, we are increasingly digitally connected and the things that were connected to the internet do rely on a strong, consistent viable signal. and it is pretty unnerving when that signal is broken are severed. and so i think we really do more broadly need to look at what are the fail overs, what are the redundancies that allow us to continue operating in times of crisis or stress and when it comes to cell phones, you know, canned goods not the answer,
8:08 am
right? sometimes when you're preparing for things, you can, what you could do know much more than that involved here, a chris krebs. thank you so much for being with us. thank you for telling us what is now the best nickname i've heard in a long, long time? >> this also just in the biden campaign is now using the alabama supreme court ruling to go after republicans. far beyond that state saying that decision was only possible because of donald trump is coming from the biden campaign and also calling the ruling a quote, blueprint for the extreme maga reproductive agenda. this, as we've also just learned, a second clinic, a second health system, if you will, in alabama, is now pausing ivf treatments alabama fertility get announced this morning. it is pausing embryo transfers yesterday. the state's largest hospital system announced that it is pausing ivf procedures earlier this morning, i spoke with a woman's health advocate in alabama about this big question of what comes next?
8:09 am
>> university system will have to look at what their insurance is going to look like. our dr. malpractice insurance going to go through the roof, which is likely because now they're open to a whole new batch of lawsuits. this is financially going to put in fertility treatment out of reach for most people in alabama, frankly even if it does become something that they can somehow modified to make something safer under the guise of the new rules from the supreme court impacts families, friends, people across the country, hundreds of thousands of americans rely on ivf. ivf and other fertility treatments every year a pew survey, john highlighted this in earlier hours and it's worth reiterating a pew survey last year found that 42% of adults have used fertility treatments or know someone who has, you can see the reach here. the issue is clearly becoming another major political issue on the campaign trail. let's talk about both sides of this. cnn's kylie atwood fall
8:10 am
following nikki haley campaign in charleston, south carolina. cnn's arlette saenz is at the white house. kylie, let me begin with. you. talk to me about nikki haley, her response to this ruling, what the conversation has been sense is this becoming an issue for her? >> what we've seen her >> response sort of evolve over the last 24 hours or so. she was initially asked yesterday by nbc news if she agreed with the alabama supreme court ruling and she seemed to indicate that she did when she answered the question by saying that she believes that embryos are babies she didn't weigh in on the part of the ruling, however, that says that those who destroy those embryos could be held liable of wrongful death. and then in a conversation last night on cnn's king charles, she sought to clarify her position. listen to what she said i didn't say that i agreed with the alabama ruling. what the question that i was asked is, do i believe an embryo is a baby? i do think
8:11 am
that if you look in the definition, an embryo is considered an unborn baby. and so yes, i believe leave from my stance at that is now nikki haley is clearly threading the needle very carefully. here is something that she has done on this delicate issue of childbearing pregnancy, abortion throughout the entire course of her presidential candidacy here she has called for national consensus on abortion. she said that she wouldn't back a national ban on abortion, but leaving the door open to questions about if she's concerned with regard to the potential fallout from this ruling, given especially that she notes that she herself relied on ivf to conceive one of her children standby for mikaila mentioned a little bit of what the biden campaign we might not have. arlette might not be able hear me are like,
8:12 am
can you hear us? i don't think. are like can hear us. so let me reiterate. we're going to talk i was going to talk to our lead. maybe we'll get it back. you let me know what is going to talk to arlette about what more the biden campaign is saying as they put out this new statement. but i have some of it here so i can read it for you. the campaign is really using this to blast republic blinken's far beyond alabama and try and trying now to make this connection. this is from the legal fallout to now to the political fallout. what they're trying to do in saying that this is only possible quote, is only possible because donald trump's supreme court justices overturned roe v. wade in calling the ruling a quote, unquote blueprint for republicans, extreme maga, reproductive agenda. so you can see that this, this reproductive rights has already been a major issue for the biden campaign there trying to make it a major issue, they want to keep it on the forefront. kamala harris has has even had a flight for reproductive freedoms tour that
8:13 am
she's been on as part of the reelection campaign. and you see this feeds right into that john all with us now cnn political commentator and former south carolina state representative bakari sellers and cnn senior political commentator. scott jennings. this as kate meanders over to stand beside me on this very nice way of saying, walk, walk, stop. >> this. >> here. that's the important thing. look, i want to read to you. i was reading politico this morning and it had a quote from kellyanne conway on the issue of ivf here it says former top trump adviser and longtime ally kellyanne conway has warned republicans away from bands or limits on ivf. and in fact advise them to forcefully support such treatments during a capitol hill briefing, december conway shared polling the found that an overwhelming number of voters 86% support ivf, even those who consider themselves pro-life and evangelical. so again, i know this is an issue that's emotional and very real for a lot of people tried to have children. there's also the
8:14 am
politics of it. bakari, first to you, what do you make of kellyanne's comments and where things stand? >> mark this on the calendar. i agree with kellyanne conway >> this >> isn't about politics or motion, this is about real life for so many people. i mean, for me, this is about saidaiji and stokely, it was very difficult for us to get pregnant. well, my wife to be pregnant and but and i we went through ivf, we went through the shots. we went through not one set of treatment, but two very, very difficult process. the emotional ups and downs and hoping that you're embryos don't, don't get destroyed or make it throughout the process this is this for many people is more than just some exercise and politics. this is a very, very personal, intimate decision that's made very expensive decision is made. and at the end of the day, i have to five-year-old twins who are breathing and kicking and keeping us up late at night all because we had the opportunity
8:15 am
to go through ivf. the difficulty is when you have a bunch of old white men like on the alabama supreme court making decisions for bakari and elon saidaiji and stokely may not be here i think that that is the assault on reproductive rights that is infuriating to many people in this isn't a democrat or republican issue. this isn't a black or white issue. this isn't a yankee versus southern issue. this is just an issue of good moral decency and what makes good common sense? and the fact is they rather be in my bedroom then make good decisions about about the sanctity of life and what that should look like nikki haley twisting herself and pretzels. this is when she gives those half-ass statements, which is why she won't be president of the united states i want more people to stand on the side of life. but that meaning getting out of the way of reproductive rights for women like my wife, that also means taking care than when they get here. and republicans just can't seem to
8:16 am
do that. they can't fathom allowing me and my wife to make our own decisions scott, i don't think i think i'm misusing the dog caught the car, kind of connection to this. it's a little bit different than that, but basically my point is, is this a problem for republicans take a kellyanne conway said, and bakari is a perfect example of of ivf fertility treatments in general impact everyone's lives. basically at this point yeah, look, i know a lot of republicans, no lot of conservatives know a lot of pro-lifers consider myself to be a strong pro-lifer. i don't really know anybody who wants to restrict fertility treatments. in fact, we're a pro-family party. i mean, we want people to have babies and hey, of families and be happy with that. and so i don't know the legal ins and outs of this particular case, but as a political and policy making matter, i don't hear republicans and i don't hear conservatives out there crusading around saying we have
8:17 am
to end all fertility treatments in the united states. i think kellyanne's assessment is correct. i'm sure the polling she's cited is absolutely right. so as a policy matter, i think the republican party ought to continue to embrace the idea of people having families, starting families, and using the medical technology that's available to us. it's a miracle that it's available to us today. to get that done as bakari talked about with his own family. these are miracles from god that we're even able to have this technology that allows people who have trouble to do it. so as a policy and political matter, i think the republican party is probably going to continue to embrace the idea of making families and and having strong nuclear families in what i think. >> but i think there's a kind of me may end up being a distinction here between policy and the politics of it. >> look, part of the issue that now is this decision happened in alabama saying that embryos are babies and cannot be destroyed. the destruction of embryos is something that happens in ivf treatment over
8:18 am
time, because a lot more are made and fertilize over the process than are actually used. an implanted and so you have these hospitals saying we can't operate in this legal situation, so we're just stopping the ivf treatments. and so as a political matter scott, first-few has dobbs, which is a decision that i know a lot of republicans celebrated, has it opened up the possibility? that you create these situations and different states around the country >> well, it's opened up the possibility that each state needs to identify issues with its own laws and make sure that you don't have situations that are unforeseen, like this. so it's every state's responsibility of your a federalist and you believe in states having autonomy over policy making, that was the whole issue behind the abortion ruling. then the next part of that is that the policymakers in those states have to say what makes sense, what's good common sense here? can we be pro-life? and can we also support fertility treatments?
8:19 am
of course the answer is yes. anybody with half a brain would say the answer is yes. anybody with any common sense would say the answer is yes. so my, encouragement to the policymakers and alabama would be to say, okay, okay. this is this is not what we want on here. we want to protect life. we are strongly pro-life, and we are strongly pro family and none of these things are in opposition with each other >> scott jennings, bakari sellers, a couple of great dads and great parents. >> glad, glad that you're not in dispute, that is not in design. >> i'm so glad you're both in there good appreciate it. >> thanks, guys. we have some breaking news just coming in. alexey navalny's mother has just seen his body. we're just getting this in right now. we're going to have a live report from moscow on this next pose, we're also tracking. will president biden he'd be taking matters into his own hands at the border. >> the executive faction that is being considered what it could mean. you've got that coming up and a gunman opened fire on a highway near the west bank what we're learning about

8:25 am
her son, seen as matthew chance, live in moscow with the latest on this matthew, what can you tell us? >> well, this is coming from salma car, which is that remote town in the far north of russia at near to the penal colony in the russian arctic, where navalny died. last friday, his mother, ludmilla, is there. it's really 2000 miles away from moscow and she's been trying for the past five or six days to try and get access to the remains of her son. so that she could give it a funeral, give the body of funeral humanely. and she's even started a legal case to try and get access to it because there's been some confusion about where it is. she said she's been misled. well, now, within the past let's few moments, ludmilla navalnaya says that she has actually seen the body of her son, alexei navalny presumably at the mog at the morgue in that small arctic town. but she says that
8:26 am
the russian authorities, there are these are her words are attempting to blackmail her to decide when, how and where the remains should be laid to rest. she's saying that they want the burial to take place secretly without the ability of her family to say goodbye. i mean, that's that's all we've got at the moment, but clearly this is an incredibly emotional time for the family of alexey navalny, but it's also an intensely political one as well, because i think what the authorities are most concerned about is that a funeral for this leading opposition figure, a man who in life could bring tens of thousands of people onto the streets in protest. again, since the kremlin may now turn into another rallying point against the government of vladimir putin. and just weeks before a presidential election here, that's something the russian authorities desperately
8:27 am
want to avoid. john matthew chance i know you're juggling a lot of things and we appreciate you running to the camera with this information that we're just getting in on another front. i do understand that vladimir putin is responding to president biden, who at an event overnight called me crazy sob well, look, i mean, there's been a couple of responses. the one that i'm most familiar with is the one that came earlier today from vladimir putin spokesperson, dmitry peskov, the kremlin spokesperson. he's basically said that was a rude comment. and he said it was shameful to the united states. i'm slightly paraphrasing what he said. he also said that biden was trying to act like a hollywood cowboy and try and trying and failing. he was the implication >> and so it's >> sort of incredible that the relationship between these two biggest nuclear powers in the world has descended into a war of words. it's almost like a
8:28 am
school playground at this, of course, as another us citizen, this time a joint u.s. russian citizen has been taken into custody here in russia, accused of treason, facing a possible lengthy prison sentence. there are several americans now, including paul whelan, the former marine evan gershkovich, the wall street journal reporter, who are now in russian custody. and there's some concern and some analysts making the point that these people could be being gathered in preparation for some kind of negotiation and to use as leverage in negotiations with the united states in the future. >> matthew chance, we do appreciate your reporting under difficult circumstances. thank you so much for the work you're doing there. >> okay. >> so black texas student suspended for months over his hair of this fight is now going to trial and it's getting underway. we'll take you there. >> candidate john edwards

8:33 am
>> golf been eat 775383882, or visit home serve >> why you ran hits america sunday at eight on cnn let's morning, president biden is weighing, taking executive action to stem the unprecedented migrant surge at the southern border cnn's priscilla alvarez has the latest on what is being considered priscilla john, what i'm being told by sources is that white house officials are reviewing an authority that already exists in immigration law >> and gives the president the power to decide who is eligible to enter the united states in
8:34 am
this context, it would allow him to restrict migrants ability to seek asylum if they cross the border unlawfully it's an extraordinary move if the white house were to take it because it resembles something that was done over the former administration under former president donald trump and would also earn fierce pushback from immigrant advocates. and democrats. now, an administration official tells me that there are multiple options that are being evaluated here and that no final decision has it's been made. the white house also telling me in a statement, quote, no executive action, no matter how aggressive can deliver the significant policy reforms and additional resources congress can provide. and that republicans rejected. we continue to call on speaker johnson and house republicans to pass the bipartisan deal to secure the border. of course, with the white house is referring to there is that senate border bill that included some of the toughest border security measures in recent memory, including a power for the homeland security secretary to shut down the border if it reached a certain trigger now, the president over
8:35 am
the course of the negotiations had embrace that authority, saying he would shut down the border if he if he could, this possible thank you. live action seems to be an extension of that, although we don't yet have all of the details. but of course, john, this comes at a notable moment. it's, we're in the middle of the election year. the president is nose immigration is going to be front and center and he is trying to seize on border security here, flip the script on republicans and show that he is also willing to be tough on the u.s.-mexico border. of course, whether or not they move forward with this executive action. it's still very much in question. >> all right. we will let you continue to report on that, priscilla alvarez. thank you very much. >> and joining us now to talk about this as john sandweg is a former acting director for us immigration and customs enforcement. it's good to see you again, john broadly speaking, blocking asylum claims of migrants on a practical level >> what does that >> do at the border if that kicks in, i mean, what could this look like? >> well, look here. this would be a fundamental shift in how we approach border security and
8:36 am
how would the asylum system in the united states candidly, probably if he's successful and if the survives, the inevitable legal challenges, this would permanently reshape how we address border security at immediately at the border and asylum claims but very quickly as you and i have discussed before, the central bottleneck and really the crux of this crisis is our inability to handle all of these claims and give people the hearing that they're entitled to under current law, what the administration is looking at doing is saying, how do we bypass that requirement? we give a hearing. the net result would be it would eliminate hey, that bottleneck at the same time though, individuals who probably some individuals who have a valid asylum claim, who are fleeing persecution would be unable to present that claim. in the united states. >> you rowan, right where i was going to take you because you and i have been talking for years about one of the bottlenecks here, which are immigration courts. and that's where the big bottleneck occurs in this asylum claim process
8:37 am
does this move, do anything to fix that? what does this mean if this kicks in? >> and you're still facing the problem of resources of people and space yeah, it's not going to solve all the problems, right? but the fundamental problem is you're not discussed this when an individual's gets into the united states sets two feet there. we have, we've not had a problem apprehending those individuals, vetting them. the problem is they make an asylum claim and bind law by existing law, we cannot deport them from the united states until an immigrant shan judges determine that they do not present a valid claim so what the administration is trying to do is eliminate that requirement. that's what the senate bill would have done. that's what if something like this is enacted, that's what this executive action would do. basically said that individuals who cross between the ports and unlawfully entered the united states are no longer eligible to present a claim. now, look, i think this is this is what trump tried in 2018. i expect biden to tailor this in a way that'll be a little more humane. i don't think it'll be

hundred percent of the people across. it sounds to me like they're looking at putting 5,000 a day or 5,000 a week at some some limit? mutation on it. but the bottom line is this is exactly what president trump tried, but was ultimately enjoined by the courts from doing in 2018. >> yeah. >> look kind of the moment where we find the country finds itself in, in this tightening border security has long been an issue that >> republicans put republican politicians have pushed and run on. and now very clearly this is a very good example of how democrats are doing the same what do you think of this political moment as it relates to the ongoing challenges of border security and immigration policy. >> okay. listen, i mean, even back in the days when i was at dhs and we had 400,000 apprehensions in a year. republicans would say the border was wildly out of control and there was no border security. now, in december alone, we had 300,000
8:39 am
individuals apprehended at the border. so we're in a completely different environment. look at the end of the day. this is a political football and from someone who is focused more on the operation and policy side that politics is always undermine the effectiveness and really does a disservice to the men and women at the border patrol and a dice who have very difficult jobs, but can't get the tools they need because of the political paralysis right? that happens in congress. you said it at the outset, even if the administration is able to implement this change, there are still massive recent source constraints, just last week and leaked out that ice was looking at cutting thousands of potentially from individuals free from detention. they're looking at pulling resources from other critical national security and public safety operations by the department, put it to shift them over to border security. this is not going to solve our problems congress does need to act. but again, the politicization of border security and immigration has just kind of always undermined our ability to have effective border security. >> it's a real policy issue. policy needs to be put in place in order to figure out what to do and how to protect the

border and what's due. and it is so wrapped up in politics has been for decades, but it's kind of on steroids in this no, john, it's good to see you. thank you for coming in >> jump. >> right this morning at trial underway after a black student was suspended for months for refusing to cut his hair and mark your calendars february 22, 2024 could be the date of the first american moon landing in 50 years >> the south carolina republican presidential primary saturday had six on cnn nexium, 24 hour prevents heartburn, acid for twice as long as pepcid get all day and all night heartburn as it prevention with just one bill a day? she's acid prevention, choose messier >> you know that feeling of having a rewatched actions that didn't get claimed i don't pass a platinum plus has me

policy is in compliance with the crown act, the law here in the state of texas that prohibits discrimination on the basis of hairstyle. and so the georgia's attorney is arguing, of course, that the policy is not in compliance with the crown neck, but let me get you up to speed about what what all of this is about and why these two parties are in the courthouse that you see behind me because this legal battles started months ago between barbers hill independent school district and darryl george. george is the 18-year-old that has a locke's hairstyle and he has been suspended for months because of his locks hairstyle. now, here is what the school policies says. its strict, but it does allow for a locke's hairstyle, but it restricts the length of the hairstyle for boys, it specifically states, quote, boy's hair will not extend below the eyebrows,
8:47 am
below the earlobes or below the top of a t-shirt collar. now, last september, the school district went to the court and ask the court to make a judgment, asked the judge to rule on if their policy was in compliance with the crown act. again, this is the law that protects hair hairstyles here in the state of texas doesn't allow schools to discriminate based on the hairstyle that student is wearing now george as you heard him moments ago, saying that this is much more that his hair is much more than just the length or just the style he was talking about his roots his ancestry, that's why he wears his hair. the way he does. now, the school superintendent took up a full add in the houston chronicle and that says in part, quote, the problem with relaxing standards without any regard to academic implication is the precedent it creates our military academies at west point, annapolis, and colorado
