5:00 am
the debate is happening here in the united states about continued us funding and support of ukraine. president zelenskyy has made clear in his recent, in his new interview with cnn that ukraine cannot succeed without usa. and he says and cnn's stephen collinson, he frames this funding mess and a very interesting way today with a focus on the republican house speaker mike johnson. let me read this for you, ambassador, the quiet louisiana and is besieged by intensifying calls among republicans opposed to more ukraine aid especially from the pro-trump wing, wing of his conference as he seeks to cling to his job longer than its ill-fated predecessor, kevin mccarthy. but johnson's lonely dilemma is being sharpened as the administration singles him out, as the one man who can forte or enable putin's attempt to wipe ukraine off the map. it's down to one man to decide the fate of ukraine. essentially, that's not biden, that's not putin is a relatively
5:01 am
inexperienced house speaker, is the argument here. do you see it that way? >> no i see it more broadly. this is a decision for the house of representatives. the senate has made its decision to seven senate in an overwhelming that 70 to 29 vote bipartisan. almost all the democrats, 22 republicans have in the senate, they supported ukraine package that's where it's going now into the house. and yes, the speaker does have a lot of decisions, a lot of authority to make a decision about when it comes to a vote or if it comes to a vote. but there are other people in the house who are looking for options to either get the speaker to allow a vote on something that they could put together, or to actually go around him which is possible to do if he sees people going around him, it may encourage him to make decisions. okay. bring it to a vote. >> big meeting today at the white house. this is among the very serious important topics that are going to be happening amongst the top congressional leaders and the president, ambassador taylor, it's very good to see you. thank you.
5:02 am
>> thank you >> happening right now, michiganders are voting in the presidential primary. how divided our democrats can haley muster up new hope work? well donald trump take that state to the wolverine state we'll answer those questions today. >> hunter biden is headed back to capitol hill. this time he's going behind closed doors to answer questions and dramatic body camera footage just released of the deadly shooting at joel osteen's megachurch. i'm john berman with sara sidner and kate baldwin. this is cnn a new central >> voters, as john called it in the swingiest swing state of michigan are heading to the polls right now. and this pivotal day could answer some major questions for president biden or donald trump and nikki
5:03 am
haley, biden won the state in 2020 but a large block of democrats, there are angry over the president, strong, supportive israel as huge numbers of palestinian civilians are being killed in its war with hamas. they plan to send a message today with a protest vote. it may give biden an inkling of how big of an issue this might be in november, as for donald trump, he's looking for another big margin victory, another big question though, will nikki haley make a dent in that number with a strong showing and help keep her campaign alive. pitcher self to the voters right here on cnn news central, kate baldwin will be speaking with her in just the next hour. now, cnn political director david chalian is now joining us from washington, dc. there is always something bigger at stake when it comes to michigan talk us through >> well, no doubt about that. i mean, 15 is the number really to watch. that's how many electoral votes or it's taking michigan in november. and what we're going to get tonight, sara, are some clues, especially as it relates to president biden. he as you
5:04 am
know, michigan was one of the states that he flipped from red to blue that helped secure his victory for the white house. and so piecing together, back together that 2020 winning coalition is mission critical for joe biden. and tonight, because of this protest vote that you're talking about with uncommitted and the disenchantment with younger voters progressives were going to see some exposure here, some vulnerabilities likely of biden's general election posture. >> all right, i do want to ask you about sort of the history of this biden won in michigan in 2020 with the help of young progressive and eric voters but now there's this big statement being pushed, this movement to vote uncommitted potentially thousands of people could do so in protest of his support of israel. i mean, how serious of a threat might this be to the biden campaign and how much of a watching this particular issue? >> well, they're watching it very closely. there's no doubt
5:05 am
about that. they've dispatched administration officials. they've dispatched a political surrogates. there's no doubt about that, and you even hear some of their allies like senator debbie stabenow on our air this morning, or governor gretchen whitmer on cnn, just in the last couple of days saying that there is this real sense of unease among some inside the democratic electorate and coalition here related to biden's israel gaza policies. now, sara, when you say how much damage can really be done, joe biden is going to be the democratic nominee. joe biden's going to collect more delegates tonight in michigan, it's not as if he's at risk of somehow losing that stature. what is clear here, what is going to be exposed for us to see here, how big a to-do item is bringing back the young, the progressive, the arab-american pieces of the coalition in michigan, specifically, because it's really tough, really tough to see you, joe biden wins a second term in the white
5:06 am
house without michigan in his corner? >> yes, i do want to talk to you too, about nikki haley. she says over and over that trump can't win a general election. there are some polling that she could, she lost though in south carolina by 20 votes. she won though 40% of the vote there in that state. she's promised to stay in the race at least through super tuesday. i mean, what does a win look like for her right now? is that a possibility even? >> well, you know, a win looks like an actual wind and that's not likely to happen in michigan. and in fact, michigan's going to be one of the first tests we've seen this cycle where nikki haley has not spent tens of millions of dollars visiting the state, often holding events that happened in iowa, that happened in new hampshire, that happen opened in south carolina. so now we're going to see what is sort of the natural baseline of support inside the context of a republican primary for donald trump. we talked a lot on saturday night about that 40%. and what that represents in terms of his exposure, in terms
5:07 am
of general election of vulnerabilities today, since it hasn't been a fully engaged primary campaign in michigan, i think we're going to learn just what is that slice of the republican electorate that even without a fully engaged opponent against trump is resistant to trump. and what does that tell us about his vulnerability in a critical battleground state come november yeah. >> even though we pretty much the polling shows who will likely when you're really going to see some details here that are important. thank you for pointing all of those out. david chalian, you always do okay. >> no problem. >> this morning, the big four will be convening at the white house with nothing short of the fate of an ally at stake and whether the us government is going to be able to keep the lights on without action and simply getting without action and simply getting their act together. congress has trigger a government shutdown by week send. and while these top four congressional leaders are meeting with president biden, congressional gridlock has left lawmakers muttering a lot of
5:08 am
four-letter words cnn's lauren fox is in washington. she's joining us now. >> lauren, >> what could come from this meeting? what are you hearing >> well, certainly the stakes are really high at this moment as lawmakers meet with the president today at the white house, and specifically the question on the table is whether or not they're going to be able to come to some kind of an agreement and to avert that government shutdown, shutdown, which will happen friday at midnight. and right now, it's not clear what the path is, and this isn't really a divide necessarily between republicans and democrats. this is kind of a divide between house republicans and everybody else. you are starting to hear so much frustration from both republican and democratic senators as they arrive back to washington last night over the fact that everyone knew this deadline was coming, everyone knew what was at stake. and yet they are still grappling with coming to some kind of an agreement on those four spending bills that are due on friday at midnight. here's
5:09 am
some senate democrats expressing that heartburn >> what is wrong with these people? this is, this is the central thing congress is supposed to do. the republicans can't seem to get themselves organized just a sign off on the basic work. they're supposed to do this is just ridiculous >> us where to go >> it is sinful. >> what's going on? the games are being played right now with american people in all the people that are depending on services of the federal government. and we can't even get our act together. >> this is shame >> and right now, speaker mike johnson is facing intense pressure from his right flank to get some policy victories as part of these negotiations, something that's going to be a really tall order for mike johnson, the house it's of representatives due back in washington tomorrow, but that just doesn't give them very much time to negotiate with the senate and get this all hundred out before friday. >> yeah, they never have enough time because they love a deadline as we know, lauren,
5:10 am
it's great to see you. thank you so much. >> what does it ridiculous, sinful can't get their act together all the ways i described you, john thank you montana senator jon tester, what did he call? you? called me out for saying a curse word is 07:00 a.m. so i wasn't going to say it again, but for the faint of heart, it was >> right. also, what you used to describe me. thank you. >> so a >> huge moment shaping up on capitol hill tomorrow. hunter biden will testify behind and closed doors in the impeachment investigation into his father. he agreed to sit for a deposition after months of back-and-forth where he pushed to testify in public. cnn chief legal affairs correspondent paula reid is in washington with all how all this came together and what it all means. paula john, we weren't sure that we would ever see this day because hunter biden and his lawyers had insisted that he would only testify in a public hearing. they said they were really concerned about selective leaks from republican lawmakers, which is why they were pushing for a public hearing. and as you know, the
5:11 am
leadup to this day, it has been quite some well, that's a political stance to on announced appearances by hunter biden on the hill, some political sniping and some hardball negotiations that resulted in at least two concessions from republicans that have made this possible. the first is that hunter biden's deposition will not be videotaped and that is a departure from other witnesses are related to the biden investigation whose whose interviews have then videotaped. now, there was also an agreement when it comes to the transcript there were concerns that if the majority got hunters transcript first, they could potentially selectively leaked parts, try to shape the narrative before the full document was made available to the public. but we've learned that there is an agreement that it will be made simultaneously available to both parties, and then released to the public, hoarding quickly, possibly within 24 hours. now, a hunter biden is is certainly the most significant witness that they have it secured on the hill in
5:12 am
their investigations? related to an impeachment inquiry into the president. but it comes just about a week-and-a-half after a significant blow to the allegations against the former president and his son. of course, the fbi has charged in informant alexander smirnov with making false statements with allegedly lying about things he said about hunter biden and president biden receiving bribes. >> so >> republicans, not necessarily feeling as confident as they were before those allegations, but this is still a significant witness that they're really only able to get in the chair because they were willing to negotiate here yeah. >> and as you say, the timing is fascinating as the impeachment inquiry itself seems to be sputtering a little bit. paula reid. thank you very much. i know we'll be talking to you extensively tomorrow a. former trump attorney who helped lead the charge on the 2020 fake electors scheme and the secret twitter account. what a kfile, cnn kfile investigation found that has officials in michigan saying they want to know more and a

ready for monday sign up for free because it otter.ai, ai or download the app. >> united states of >> scandal with jake tapper. sunday at nine on cnn >> our new this morning, a cnn investigation, a key figure in the trump campaign's fake elector plot. concealed a secret twitter account from michigan prosecutors. the account belonged to lawyer kenneth chesebro, was filled with damning posts that undercut his statements to investigators about his role in the 2020 election subversion scheme, chesebro directly denied using twitter, which people call x now and appear to lie about having any alternate
5:18 am
ids on social media when speaking to michigan investigators last year in this recorded interview you have any social media presence, facebook >> let me know i for whatever. i mean for linear alternate ids that you're using for that kind of stuff? >> no. i mean, i don't i don't do any twitting so a cnn kfile investigation linked chesebro to the secret account under the name badgerpundit. the link was made based on numerous matching details, including biographical information regarding his work, family, travels, and investments. chesebro's lawyers confirmed to cnn that the badgerpundit account did in fact belonged to chesebro his attorney described the account as chesebro is quote, random stream of consciousness that he used to spit ball theories about the election, but insisted it was separate from his work as a lawyer for the trump campaign >> a lot to talk about here.
5:19 am
let's do that. joining us is former manhattan prosecutor jeremy saland. it's good to see you, jeremy john laid it out really well how much of a problem and how much trouble is this secret secret twitter account? and what we know chesebro had said in depositions i think it's very, very serious. in fact, when you're a prosecutor in a criminal defense attorney, you tell that person walking into what we call a queen for a day. this agreement, you work truthful, you were honest because what you say here can potentially be used against you. and if you lie, it will and take separate from that. if you are cooperating any formal agreement and you will have to be upfront and disclosed and you fail to do so if in the four corners of that agreement, it could set a path to what you will find yourself aware. you will find yourself for that mess up. >> what about i mean, there are tentacles, you know, chesebro is if not charged, he is talked about in more than one investigation, right? you've got the michigan fake elector scheme. he he was charged and
5:20 am
then recent plea deal with regard to the georgia election scheme. he is an unindicted died in coconspirator. conspirator in the federal election subversion case. if it no matter does it matter where he said it? if he if he wasn't truthful about a secret twitter account in one place, doesn't impact the others. >> it absolutely does. and can and we know from georgia one of the parts of that cooperation was he was going to need it to be true the foreign cooperate with michigan and he's now clearly not done that. so setting aside the exposure, he has and that sort of, sort of that regret. he's potentially can have. yeah, he has no quiz credibility is now in question. it's really, really serious for the cases that he's involved in end for him in terms of his liability i want to get your take on some of the statements by chesbro's attorneys when approached by cnn about what they found chesebro's lawyer describes the secret account >> at quote, as his random stream of consciousness where he was spitballing theories about the election, but insisted it was separate from his legal work with the trump campaign, chesebro's attorney acknowledged in an interview
5:21 am
with cnn that quote, there's clearly really a conflict between some of his tweets and what he told michigan prosecutors, and that some of the electorate theories he embraced online were inconsistent with his subsequent legal advice to the trump campaign. and wait, there's more and then there's also this quote we should have asked for clarity and that was our screw up chesebro's attorney told cnn about him denying in michigan prosecutors that he used twitter. what do you think of that? >> i think as a criminal defense attorney now, i say what i need to say to help my client and you need to fix mistakes think that you take that with a grain of salt. it doesn't hold water. it is a colander with lots of holes. he was asked a very specific question. and he denied using social media. he denied the twitter account or just using the tweet, tweeting. this is problematic and it's substantive too, because it's it's the fake electors plot. it's, we can use a court to oh, no, we can't use the courts. we use a state legislator i'm going to lean really quickly as a former manhattan prosecutor on what manhattan prosecutors are asking for today this gag order request in the hush money >> trial for donald trump, what do you think of that request?
5:22 am
>> i think it's tailored in a way that says what we know, which is we, we know that the former president attacks witnesses. we know that there's jurors who could be vulnerable. we know that there's court staff that can be broken a bone prosecutors, i think it's a right move and i think the court should grant that in a limited scope. >> how long do you think that trial is going to be? >> it could take a good month longer. i mean, it could be a long time because there's 34 counts and it's monotonous it's going through all this and the cross-examination, but we're not we're not talking days or weeks. we're talking multiple weeks. >> let's see what happens. >> thank you so much, jeremy is going to see you as well, sir. >> all right ahead. we have newly released body camera video of the shooting inside joel osteen's lakewood church the latest on the investigation into that case >> also, could we >> see a ceasefire in gaza? very soon, president biden is expressing optimism. it could happen potentially by monday what israeli officials though have to say about that to be a headline i don't want to

5:28 am
have a ceasefire cnn's jeremy diamond is in tel aviv for us. he's joining us now. jeremy, do israeli officials do they share president biden's optimism here? >> kate no one seems to be sharing president biden's optimism, at least not to the degree that he expressed it in terms of how soon he believes that a deal can be reached and israeli official telling us that the israeli government was quote surprised by the president's timeline. they don't know what the president was its basing that assessment on an interestingly, we're also hearing some cold water being poured on this by hamas as well. osama hamdan a senior official for hamas, saying that the leaks that have come out about the state of these negotiations about the progress is being made in his view, portray a false sense of progress. now of course, these are both parties to these negotiations. they are posturing as much as they're giving insight into the state of those negotiations. qatar, for its part, which is a key
5:29 am
mediator in these talks, says that they believe that there is a positive trajectory here, but they didn't go quite as far as president biden did. in fact, the spokesman for the foreign ministry, when asked about president biden's comments, simply referred comments, questions back to the white house on that, but they are hoping that an agreement can be reached before ramadan, and that is the tight timeline that we are currently under as we look to see whether or not a deal can be reached at ramadan is less than two weeks away and there does seem to be some significant progress being made in these talks based on sources that we've talked too familiar with these negotiations. the latest framework that is being discussed would see the release of perhaps around 40 hostages over the course of about six weeks, israel very much pushing for that to include what they believe to be five israeli female well soldiers who are also being held by hamas. and it's clear that hamas has backed off some key demands. whether that is ending the war altogether, being willing to enter an initial agreement without that condition being
5:30 am
met. and also in terms of reducing the number of palestine tinian prisoners that they are demanding. but it's also clear that a deal has yet to actually be reached. but as long as these parties are talking and they certainly are an israeli delegation has been in qatar over the last couple of days, working on some of the technical details of this still then there is the possibility of progress. there is the possibility of reaching an agreement, but whether that actually happens by monday, which president biden suggested, nobody in the region seems to believe it will happen that fast. >> it's good to see jeremy thank you so much, sir. all right. joining me now to continue the discussion is cnn military analyst and retired us air force colonel cedric leighton. it is always a pleasure to see you just heard from jeremy diamond, both hamas and the israeli government is pouring water on something. the president said, sort of an off-the-cuff comment on what is happening and the negotiations with the hostages and with a ceasefire in a car phi shop.
5:31 am
what do you make of this? and can there be damaged done if a president says something like this, like something had happened by monday and the negotiations are ongoing yeah good. morning, sir. i thank you. yes. certainly damage can be done in a case like this, but i think what president biden was doing was trying to exert some pressure on both sides both sides, you know, as jeremy pointed out in his piece, they were looking at their posturing, their ability to get the maximum that they possibly can from these negotiations. the good news is that negotiations are going on right now the bad news, or at least questionable news is that neither side is really ready to say that they are ready to make these agreements. so i think both hamas and israel are trying to gain maximum advantage of this particular pick your point. they're not ready to say that they reached an agreement yet, but an agreement is still possible whether that's going to happen by monday. that is definitely a question, but i think president biden was exerting some pressure there to try to get
5:32 am
them to do exactly that. >> i do want to ask you about this. we've just learned here at cnn that an agreement would likely be implemented in multiple phases once an initial deal is made and it could lead to a truce lasting for potentially as long as six weeks. how would this work if a deal is implemented in multiple phases? >> yeah, it really depends on exactly specified within each of those phases. but normally sara, what you would see is something like this. the troops would fighting the israeli troops would cease firing on hamas. they would stop going after specific targets or at least have minimum parameter, where they could go against somebody but not against others they would probably also withdraw from areas within gaza. some of those areas such as gaza city, rafah of course, right on the egypt and the area where most people are now concentrated. and operations she's against out offer would
5:33 am
cease. so that would be the kind of thing that i would expect to see in a situation like this. and then with a phased withdrawal of troops that could coincide with the phases of the agreement. and then what you would also see as an exchange hostages for palestinian prisoners in that would be the kind of thing that i think would happen probably in like a second-order third phase of an agreement of this too. >> so when you're talking about these phases, i mean, i guess the ultimate questionnaires, if there was a ceasefire agreement, do you see there being for example, the idea of keeping the idf presence there in the area or wood that you think be completely a nonstarter? but when it comes to hamas's side of this yeah, hamas probably wouldn't like that. the other hand, the israelis are insisting on something like they're at least they have in the past. so there could be a presence of perhaps as many as 30,000 idf troops in gaza. that would be a lot of troops somewhere around seven
5:34 am
or so brigades worth. and that would be the kind of thing that could potentially be a stumbling block in negotiations like this. i mean, we're definitely not in the home stretch of something like this. but if the israelis were to withdraw, there would be the possibility of some other force coming in to do this, but no other force has raised their hand to come in. you know, pan-arab force, no organization of african unity, no other middle eastern entity or multinational entity from the un has been put forward. where does it peacekeeping force and that i think it presents some difficulties at this particular point as well. that's something that should be considered. but of course it would be very difficult for an international force to gain a foothold in gaza as well. >> colonel cedric leighton. thank you for talking us through a very difficult situation there. john, >> president biden and donald

5:40 am
districts, and they, after they rejected a proposed map done by a bipartisan commission, cnn's gloria pazmino has very latest here. gloria, you say congressional maps and people often say, pardon my yawn, but this really matters. what is happening here? >> absolutely, kate, this is about the monocracy and the balance of power and likely who is going to control the house of representatives >> the sources i've >> spoken to on both sides have told me they are feeling ptsd here we go all over again. they have a set of maps that were drawn by an independent commission but those maps have been rejected by the democrats and they are in the process of drawing new maps. now, republicans are likely to take them to court over it. why does it matter? well, as you said, the new york congressional districts are hanging in the balance. now, i do just want to talk a little bit about how we got here there because this is very much a redo of what we saw
5:41 am
two years ago, the independent commission drew maps those maps were ultimately rejected in court as an unconstitutional gerrymander. >> the >> special master that was assigned by the court came up with it a set of maps and it will those district lines that cleared the way for republicans to flip four seats. so now fast forward to 2024 and the process is beginning a again, the commission drew maps, submitted them to the legislature, and they rejected them last night. >> so it >> was high drama i hear when the vote took place yesterday and the reason for that, kate is because democrats now get to draw their own version of the maps they are in the majority here in new york. and that means they're going to be able to have an edge of how they draw the districts and therefore likely have an advantage when it comes to these key congressional races this year, they're looking to shift the playing field and
5:42 am
from the sources, i am speaking with, they make it pretty clear. they believe the path to power of the house of representative runs through new york. so they want to shift the field against their republicans likely changing districts in long island in syracuse, and even parts of the bronx. the republicans promising to sue whatever happens next. one thing is clear, they are running out of time petitioning is supposed to start here in new york today, not just for congressional seats, but all seats across the state. so if you're trying to get on the ballot, you have to know where your district is. >> okay gloria pazmino. thank you so much for that, john. >> oh, hello, harry. >> you saying yoni, a congressional district map and you have two guys here who like, we would line up like it was a star wars movie i said, you're going to be coming coming up. yeah. no. >> i mean, there's almost nothing more exciting than her
5:43 am
well done on vogue. absolutely take it away. thank you so much. >> a >> very unusual moment later this week, both president biden and donald trump will be on the us mexican border on the same day. >> why? >> cnn, senior data reporter harry enten is here to explain why are we going to see this very unusual moment on thursday? why? because what do americans believe is the nation's most important problem? they believe it is immigration the highest level, say, immigration since at least 1,981, 20 eight of americans say immigration is the nation's most important problem. and you can see the trend line here back in august, there was just 9%. so we've seen a tripling percentage of americans say that immigration is the most important problem. a record high. and with this record high comes changing attitudes on something then a lot of people have been looking at over the past few years polling us border wall with mexico. of course, donald trump has always been claiming that
5:44 am
i'm going to build the wall. take a look here. what do we see now? a majority of americans agree with that position, 53% believed that we shouldn't fact have a us border wall with mexico. if you look back where we work five years ago when donald trump was president, it was just 42%. we have seen more american say immigration as a top problem, and with that we have seen changing attitudes on a very important issue in the eyes of american. >> and again, i will note this is a pretty quick change if you're going from 9% in august to 28% now, it's quick, what's been happening over these few months that might be leading to that change in what might be happening, how about us border encounters nationwide border encounters versus a year ago, up 11% in october up 8% in november of 23% in december, january last month, up 16% where we were in january of 2023. i will note crossings didn't fact all between december and january, but oftentimes there are seasonal patterns when we compare it to where we were a year ago, border crossings are still
5:45 am
rising border encounters, excuse me, if you're talking about pure politics, what a voters say you're who do voters say they trust more on this issue, general? >> yeah, this is good news for donald trump, better job at handling border security and immigration look at this margin. donald trump, 53%, joe biden just 25% among voters. this is one of donald trump's best issues. this is the ground he wants to be playing on and more and more americans are saying it's the nation's top problem, john. >> and if you're looking at this, anything that could backfire for donald trump on this issue? yeah. i think a lot of democrats say, okay, maybe immigrant voters, voters who are born outside the united states, maybe they would say, hey, maybe there'll be some backlash against the democrats. but take a look here. choice for president among voters born outside the united states, we actually have a dead even race between joe biden and donald trump. this was a group of voters that joe biden did very well with four years ago, but a lot of groups of voters have been changing their minds going from joe biden four years ago to saying the vote for donald trump right now, that is the same case among those voters who are born outside the united
5:46 am
states, john, all right, harry enten. thank you very much for that with us now, former republican congressman from michigan fred upton, congressman. thank you so much for being with us. you want congress for a long time, including many times when everyone got close to an immigration deal, only to see it fall apart. a couple of weeks ago, there was a bipartisan agreement that a lot of people looked at. it said would make things better yet republicans walked away. how frustrating is that for you >> well, it was really frustrating because we've got to deal with immigration. i went to the border a whole bunch of times it needs to be bipartisan. we got divided government and this is a little, little good news this morning and that brian fitzpatrick from pennsylvania and jared golden from maine, republican and democrat, have introduced some legislation that could actually could be, actually be on the floor is early as next week to deal with not only ukraine, but also the border security. it's got a one-year limit on remain in mexico. so that's something
5:47 am
that many the americans support, takes us through the election. let's the next president then set the gauge. but we got to deal with this issue and we can't we can punt the ball down the field, kicked them down the field any longer we got to deal with it you know, ronald reagan it was disappointing that the senate didn't pass their bill, was disappointing that the former president trump came out against it. i worked in the reagan white house and the theory back then was, if you can get half a loaf now and work to fight for the other half another day. >> that's a victory. >> we can't let this thing languished until next year and now we've got a proposal, the wall street journal actually endorsed it today. i'm told in an editorial it could still take some make some changes, but it's doable. and i just hope that we get some >> momentum on this legislation to deal with it, perhaps as early as next week so you brought up ukraine, ukrainian president volodymyr zelenskyy told our kaitlan collins that without new money from the
5:48 am
united states, there will be no new >> success for ukraine on the battlefield or france, cma collinson writes for cnn.com, said that house speaker mike johnson polls the fate of a democracy in his hands. >> do >> you agree with that statement >> i do. >> and you know, the votes are there for ukraine, president biden asked for money last october we saw that fall of a major city here just in the last week or two now i, by putin, the money is there. the votes are there in a bipartisan way. i'm sure that there's at least 60 or 70 republican votes and we know that the votes are there in the senate. i mean, look what they did a week ago when they pass their bill 70, 30, so it's doable and actually by combining ukraine, this is what is patrick golden bill does by combining money for ukraine and then helping to fix the southern border. it's a win-win ms scott to happen. i mean, we just can't wait any
5:49 am
longer. >> well, they tried something like that and then they pulled back. lucy pulled back football over the senate side, but their congressman, i will note that you don't appear to be in michigan today. i can see the signs of withdrawal on your face from not being there, but there is a primary taking place what up what signs are you looking for from the results tonight in michigan >> well, i voted absentee. i'm actually speaking up at suffolk university. i'm lecturing today and tomorrow, but i'll be back in michigan before the end of the week. it's gonna be interested in what, what's happened with my former colleague to leave early i mean, democrats to vote uncommitted. i think they'll get a substantial number of folks do that. i don't know if they'll actually get to 10,000. you know, we've seen in these other states have very low percentage genome biden got 96% of the vote in south carolina, but only 5% of the people voted i don't know what the turnout is going to be in michigan. we got some bad weather that's coming a little bit south of there, so we'll see possible tornadoes in michigan. i think
5:50 am
nikki haley couldn't do fairly well now. >> but the >> republicans change the equation. so no matter what happens today in the republican primary, it's really going to be decided at the state convention this coming saturday. and michigan republicans changed the rules. so it's winner-take-all. well, guess what? >> all 83 counties in michigan are controlled by the trump team. and they will get probably 48 on the 55 delegates. so when things are all said and done unlike in 2016, where if you got a third of the vote, and kasich rubio and trump, did. they got a third of the delegates in this case, 90% of the delegates, maybe even higher. i get to go to trump because of the winner-take-all change >> former congressman fred upton, i hope boston is treating you well. thank you so much for being with us today. i appreciate it. >> sara. all right. ahead. >> the houston police department has >> released the body camera footage showing those dramatic moments officers encountered the shooter inside texas pastor joel osteen's church, that happened earlier this month.

6:00 am
plug blow up. but this report was commissioned a year ago, long before that incident last month, this review panel from airlines, unions, and other units of safety units at other aerospace companies was brought together by the federal aviation administration. the inspiration though, was the 737 max eight crashes, the fatal crashes that killed 346 people abroad in 2,018.20, 19, this group found that employees on the production line at boeing did not know how to report safety problems to their managers workers also said they were concerned about retaliation for reporting issues. this report also calls out quality issues that demonstrate poor safety culture. remember, it was essentially a quality control problem that was detailed in the initial report from the ntsb on alaska flight 12, 82, that plane left the factory at boeing in renton, washington without the critical bolts that keep the door plug in place. here is the big takeaway
