across the western half of the us because of this ongoing storm. but the good news is just within the past our the blizzard warnings have been lifted for lake tahoe and the sierra nevada region. so that's good news. we do have some precipitation north of there, but that's really not going to impact the hardest hit areas. so maybe just maybe we'll get just a few moments are a few days to dig out of this recent snowstorm, but wow, how impactful is that? snow above shaquille o'neal's head. and you saw the disappearing act there right on your tv screens. so that's something if you've ever seen him in person, you just realize how high that really it yeah. >> exactly. right >> derek van dam. thank you very, very much >> the supreme court jumping into the presidential race like we haven't seen in two decades, the historic ruling could be coming in the next two hours here on cnn, we are

questions that have been swirling on whether donald trump can remain on colorado's presidential ballot, or if the state can kick them off not since bush v. gore, 24 years ago, has the supreme court. and so directly involved in a presidential race. cnn's paula reid and joan biskupic standing by for this big moment paula, can you lay out what is at stake this morning for everyone? >> so of course, the supreme court does not tell us which opinions they are going to release, but we widely expected today, but they will release their decision on former president trump's ballot eligibility. that's a little surprising that they've spentir locations tomorrow for super tuesday, including the state of colorado. if you remember how this case played out at the supreme court several weeks ago, former president trump's lawyer did pretty well. not only did the law really appear to be on his side, but the justices on bull's-eye sides of the aisle appeared willing to agree with a lot of what he was
5:03 am
saying. so it's widely expected that he will likely win in this case, but it's not clear exactly how why it's taken so long, how difficult it might have been for chief justice john roberts to build some sort of consensus behind the scenes. and we'll be looking to see how narrow throw that consensus is also expected that once this is a decided that what they decide will also apply to other states because of course, we have seen in illinois and maine, they have also tried to remove former president trump from the ballot, but this is, as you noted, it's one of the most significant election-related cases since bush v. gore. but unlike those kids, this is of course, not deciding the outcome of election. they're just deciding who can appear on the ballot right, paul. thank you so much, sir >> all right. thank you, ke. we are going to bring in our joan biskupic now because ahead of this potential ruling that we all think is going to happen being that the vote is happening tomorrow they've
5:04 am
already been smajor context clues from the justices about how th mightule. what can you tell us? >> sure. i think it was pretty clear on february 8th, sara, that the justices are going to reverse the colorado supreme court by a nearly unanimous, if now a complete 90 bottom line. the court's rationale then will be will be something to look at because i think the sentiment from most of the justices across ideological and political lines earlier in february was that they just don't think it should be up to individual states to keep a candidate for president off a ballot in a way that we're reverberate nationwide. so i think what you've got for sure going to benit versing the colodo supreme cou that und that donaltrump should be disqualified the ballot an insurrectionist. but exactly how we're not sure. i think it's going to come down
5:05 am
to that some sort of congressnal authorization would be needed before section three of the 14th amendment is invoked. and that's the key provision here that says that no one who's taken an oath to uphold the constitution we then engages in an insurrection or rebellion shall hold future office. so i think two key things states on their own can't do this, needs some sort of congressional authorization and then finally, sara, i do not think we are going to get any kind of decision that says whether donald trump engaged in insurrection or not? the sentiment back on february 8 was that the justices do not want to go there. and the way this case is framed, they do not have to. now, colorado lower court judges did find that donald trump engaged in insurrection that culminated on january 6, 2021, wh the don't think is supremeourt is gng to comment onhat at all.
5:06 am
>> sara, can you give us a sense if the supreme court rules away that you think they're going to rule just because of the context that you have read. and you you've watched this court very closely. canou givus a sense of what this means to the states are a lot of states in limbo, if you will, wi all of those cases justasically be null and void and they they, they drop them or what what happens? >> well lower courts in those states now, we'll be able to look to what the supreme court did and apply it in their particular situations. there's two states in particular that would follow on this, and that would be maine in illinois. those are the only two states sara that ruled in any way like colorado now only in colorado did it go to the state's highest court so with a clear resolution, so other states would now follow suit, but i have to say sara for all practical purposes, donald trump's name has never been removed from any ballots. this point, he's been disqualified, but those decisions were put on hold pending what the us

hi, melanie zanona on capitol hill. and this is cnn >> president biden, in a new interview is laying out what he sees as the stakes and also the warning signs of this election. it was a rare oval office sit down and speaking with the new yorkers, evan osnos biden address many things including the growing doubts among in him from some in his own party saying, quote, i'm the only one who has ever beat him and i'll beat him again. biden also says that he doesn't think donald trump is going to concede the election if he loses, saying that trump will go do anything to win and also losers who are losers are never graceful. >> cnn's >> arlette saenz, is that the white house for us? >> arlette >> a very long sit down. it's a very long profile about this sit down from evan osnos, what more is the president saying? what are you hearing? >> well, kate, this interview really offers a window into president biden stinky thinking
5:13 am
as the 2024 campaign is underway, it's very rare that he sits down for an interview in the oval office and rare that he said it's down for an interview with print reporters, but he did so with new yorkers, evan osnos, where he talked about the stakes of this election. the president really said that he is driven to run for reelection by two things. one, he believes that he has accomplishments that he can can tout and has provided benefits for the american people. he argues that those benefits are just starting to kick in now and we'll need more time to come to fruition. but also the president believes that he can beat former president donald trump. he said that he didn't once back in 2021 of the only people to be trump, that he does believe he can do it again. now this interview comes in, these comments come as the president is facing very close polling and hypothetical head-to-head match-ups with trump. and also, there are voters, including some democrats, harboring questions about the president's age and his ability to serve a second term. but in this interview,
5:14 am
the president also spoke about what's at stake if trump, if biden wins and trump were to not concede, he said that he fully expects that trump would not concede again, just as he did back in 2020 saying in that interview, you read part of that quote where he said losers, who are losers are for graceful. i just think that he'll do anything to try to win if and when i when i think he'll contest it no matter what the result is, we have heard biden use similar language in the past, it calling a referring to trump as a loser, calling him an election denier in chief. and recent polling has found that the american public also believes that trump would not concede if biden were to win a cnn recent cnn poll released found that only 25% of americans say they expect trump will accept the results those of a loss if he were to lose to biden and that is actually down from 37% in october. so but the president really speaking to what is at stake here in this election, what would happen once again if trump were not to
5:15 am
concede? if biden were to win as he had trying to make this case and present this contrast with the former president as voters are trying to make up their minds heading into november it's good to see arlette. >> thank you so much. >> john all right. with us now, cnn political commentator and former trump white house communications director, alyssa farah griffin. >> i'm the >> only one who has ever beat him and i will beat him again. i know from my own reporting that that is something that president biden firmly believes, not only that he firmly believes he's the only one who could have beaten him before and perhaps beat him again. what do you think of that? >> it's actually a very trumpian statement. it kinda reminds me of i alone can fix it. i mean, it's demonstrably untrue. generic democrats have pulled performed better against donald trump head-to-head than joe biden. and has an in reading this piece, you can't tell if it's defiance or denial, or maybe a mix of both. the president. i mean, even the strategic decision respectfully to sit down with the new yorker, loved the new yorker long time subscriber. is this
5:16 am
moving votes and wayne county, michigan or in bucks county, pennsylvania, it seems like the target audience isn't even who he is reaching and giving this sweep being in long-standing interview that probably took hours out of the president's schedule. >> the audience, maybe the media, as the state of the union address approaches thursday night in that context, maybe it does make sense you raised the curtain on this giant we can do perhaps raise expectations evan osnos, in the piece writes, quote, he often says, if biden, i feel so much younger than my age in the early years of his presidency when people asked him about his age, his stock response was watch me he doesn't say that as much anymore grudgingly painfully. he may be coming to terms with reality that people don't see him the way he hopes they will. again, addressing the age issue head-on. put that in the context of this week with the state of the union address, what does he have to do? >> he has gotta sell a forward-looking vision. so to give president biden some credit, he's done remarkable progress on the economy. the economy is objectively doing better on most macro measures the stock market unemployment.
5:17 am
but for a lot of americans, grocery prices, that is what is impacting them most directly. and it's why people don't actually feel like the economies as good as it's performing. immigration. joe biden was behind the eight-ball on this. it is the number one issue for the vast majority of voters. he now does have a bill, but he needs to be able to call out congress specifically house republicans for blocking it. but he also needs to talk about the future, not just wait for my actions to kick in. it's going to get better. he's got to have some kind of forward vision. >> what about the performance art, insofar as it relates to his age? >> it's i mean, listen, it's hard. i think the best line that he had to date was the one saying i would take old over old ideas, juxtaposed some of the more backward looking ideas of the gop. for example, this whole idea over ivf, that's really come to the forefront. but even around reproductive health that's something where i think you could get voters to say, yeah, he might be old, but his ideas are closer to where i am. >> so when it comes to age, obviously, the new polls that came out this weekend have a whole bunch of numbers that are not great for president biden, the canada is too old to be president if too old been
5:18 am
effective president, 73% say that biden's tool, only 42% say that donald trump is. and or yet, or, but over the weekend, donald trump, in his public speeches continues to interchange or mix up president biden, barack obama. listen to this >> putin has so little respect for obama that he started to throw around the nuclear order. you heard so he does that all the time, mixes them up in speeches. alyssa, you worked inside the white house. you saw donald trump firsthand when he was albeit for years or several years younger, at least how much does he ms or mix-up facts and the like? >> i have said this before, he is not as sharp as he was in 2016 and not even a sharp as he was in 2020 for some reason, that doesn't necessarily come across to voters the same way. but donald trump is not the strongest fighter that republicans could have right now. and it's remarkable how much voters don't see the age as also an issue because he is only three-and-a-half years
5:19 am
younger than president joe biden. but there's something about the way they carry themselves that is just seemed very differently. >> when you say he's not the same as he was, he is listed. he's never been a super articulate >> or eloquent person, but he's consistently missing up at mixing up names of heads of state. he's missing mixing up names like nancy pelosi and nikki haley. i mean, this is it's gotten worse. it hasn't gotten better. he's not nearly as sharp as he was. >> he just wanted to lose circle back when you talked about reproductive rights, the new over-the-counter birth control pills becoming available for them the first time this week you have the ivf situation in alabama the environment here does seem to be shifting to an area where the discussion is where democrats would prefer it it absolutely is. i mean, this should be democrats race to lose, but i worry that especially in reading this piece that the president's headset is more focused on looking backward 2020, we all saw that we are horrified by january 6, were horrified by so much of donald trump. but you're not running against somebody in a global pandemic who tried to overthrow the government when the economy was in free fall. it's a very different front time when you were the incumbent and you own
5:20 am
everything that's wrong. >> let's farah griffin. great to have here this morning. thank you so much, sara. >> all right. crews are struggling still to get control of its store wildfires in texas. why these massive flames that have there the biggest that the state has ever seen could impact your grocery rebel? also crisis in haiti after thousands of prisoners escape, some of them threatening to overthrow the government we'll take you there >> dianne, not guilty. i am resigning administration officials destroyed my cover. >> politics we're great power meets questionable decision making. >> and then on faceless from backroom deals, cia secrets, affairs, bribery, corruption qin, prostitution, to someone who lives for politics when a major scandal unfolds, i have to know there's so much more to the

5:26 am
hard to tell what happened. you heard one loud noise that sounded like maybe a gunshot and then you definitely heard gunshots. what exactly where we look out there >> well, sara, what carol stream police have released so far is multiple views of this incident, so they've released the body camera footage for all of the officers who arrived on scene. it's about five-minute clips maybe a little less than five-minute clips from each of the six officers who arrived and what you see, sarah is you see that supervisor opens the door to the apartment with a key. you see four officers begin to work their way through the apartment, clearing the apartment, and then you see an officer kick in the door and then almost simultaneously there's the sound of a gunshot there's just a very brief pause and then there's the sound of another gunshot. there's also the sound of a taser being deployed. the body camera video from the first officer in that line is obscured by a ballistic shield. so it's very unclear what prompted them to open fire on isaac goodlow. i've reviewed
5:27 am
all of the angles of this. i cannot see what that first officer would have seen that that would have prompted any one of those officers to open fire that sarah remains the open question. the video that carol stream released begins with about a five-minute statement from the carol stream police chief. he does not say sara, why police opened fire on iszo? goodlow? they do. they'll give an explanation of what led up to this incident. they say february 3rd for 15:00 a.m. they get a call of domestic violence incident, according to police, the girlfriend of isaac goodlow who shared that apartment with him ran outside after an altercation with isaac goodlow. she was barefoot. she claimed to police that she had injuries. she was checked out by paramedics next, police were there for about 45, 50 minutes with her. and in that time, she granted them permission to go inside that apartment police say they spent 45 to 50 minutes trying to contact isaac goodlow. they tried to call his cell phone. they say they tried to knock on the door or they tried to knock on an exterior window. they didn't hear anything they made arrangements

5:35 am
initial six-week pause in fighting to see the release of perhaps some 40 israeli hostages. they are also waiting for hamas to provide its response to the ratio you of palestinian prisoners that it would demand be released in exchange for these israeli hostages. and so as a result of not getting that information, we're told that is really prize and minister benjamin netanyahu decided not to send an israeli delegation to this latest round of talks that comes despite the fact that we've been hearing some optimism from us officials goals in particular over the weekend about the possibility of actually reaching an agreement here. and it's important to keep in mind that we are under a time crunch here muslim holiday of ramadan is less than a week away, and israeli officials have indicated that if there is not a deal in place by then that the israeli military will instead move to escalate things in the gaza strip by moving to carry out a major military offensive in the southern city of rafah were about one-and-a-half million palestinians are currently
5:36 am
living. hamas sees the sticking points in these negotiations. another way they are continuing to does that israel must agree to a permanent ceasefire, or at least a pathway to a permanent ceasefire. they also say that there are still things to be worked out in terms of the withdrawal of israeli troops from gaza or from certain parts of gaza, as well as the return of displaced palestinians from northern gaza to be able to return back to their homes. but amid all of this, what is coming into clearer focus, john, is the increasingly desperate humanitarian situation inside of the gaza strip. we are getting more reports of the hunger and malnutrition that is afflicting the most vulnerable well in northern gaza, in particular, the palestinian ministry of health says that 15 children have now died of dehydration or malnutrition. several of those coming in just the last few days and one of the hospitals in northern gaza is worried that the lives of six more children could also be at risk due to severe malnutrition amid all of this, as humanity and tharon agencies sound the alarm bells were seeing multiple
5:37 am
countries ramping up efforts to provide humanitarian aid to gaza including the united states over the weekend carrying out airdrops of much needed aid. more of those expected to continue this week, but it's clear that those airdrops are not the ultimate solution to this. they are costly, they are inefficient in terms of getting the amount of aid it in and it's really a drop in the bucket. we've heard from us officials saying what really needs to happen is israel needs to open up more crossing points directly into gaza, work to coordinate better with these humanitarian aid agencies to get that a1. but in the meantime, if there's no question that the people in northern gaza are suffering and more needs to be done, john, right? >> jeremy diamond with the latest from television jeremy, thank you very much. >> and joining us now is retired army general david petraeus. he's a former cia director and commander of us central command. of course, he's also the coauthor of the book conflict, the evolution of warfare from 1945 to ukraine. it's good to see you. thank you so much. for being here, general. let's first start with the negotiations as jeremy diamond was laying out the latest of where it stands. what
5:38 am
is your level of confidence at this point in these negotiations, considering i've heard you say and taking note when you when you say that hamas is the equivalent of the islamic state >> well, it's a very close call as to whether this will come through or not. a lot of reasons the various parties would like to see this happen, a temporary ceasefire to be sure, a baby, a four to six weeks, something like that for the period of ramadan. but it will not be extended israel does need to destroy hamas again, that means render them incapable of accomplishing their mission without reconstitution but clearly there also has to be enormous additional attention and resources devoted to taking care of the people, especially in the areas that have already been cleared and we saw with that episode with the convoy in which 100 or so people were killed in a stampede apparently threatening the soldiers. saw

that as such, clearly there's got to be more attention also just to issues that might be described as law and order. gangs are running around now ramping aid convoys fund it very difficult to get in. that was actually organized by the rallies, but clearly not secured sufficiently so more attention has to be given to the what happens in neighborhoods after they have been cleared and also, how do you hold them, if you will, how do you secure the people and keep them from having hamas reinfiltrate, which would be the reconstitution that we saw with the islamic state. in fact, in iraq we destroyed it during the surge and rock kept it down for three-and-a-half years we withdrew the rockies, took their eyes off it. few years later, you have a califate. so much more attention to this side of this particular war on hamas hollywood this one on what we saw us the united states airdropping aid over gaza this weekend for the first >> time it was what the reports i've seen is 38,000. ready
5:40 am
meals from c-130 cargo planes. i've seen the reaction to this shift in this move ranging from much needed two. this is only symbolic and insufficient. what do you think >> well, i think it's all the above, but the number clearly is woefully inadequate, but it's very symbolic. and i think it's probably also intended to nudge to prod the israelis to be doing more of this themselves. on the ground. again, airdrop is an inefficient way. a year, not sure exactly who's going to get to it. 38,000 when you have a population of 2.1 million again, obviously is nowhere near sufficient, but it is very symbolic and again, the israelis are going to have to spend more time and effort and resources on this kind of action. 70 not airdrop been doing it from the ground. and ideally you're running in from different locations. into northern gaza and into those areas where there already is
5:41 am
security, but making sure that they continue that security they remember pottery house rules, pottery barn rules that we're described in the early days in iraq you break it, you own it, and they have displaced the entity that was ruling gaza. hamas. >> that's another of their objectives is to dismantle the political wing. and i agree with that as well. they can never be allowed to oversee the affairs in gaza or you'll have another episode like we had on 10-7. but that means that they're going to have to do this at least in the near term until there can be some alternative. that's arrived at do you've talked about a good counterinsurgency strategy for israel to be employing here when looking at taking out hamas, looking at gaza, the >> way i've seen you sum it up is clear. hold build. do you see israel employing the strategy at this point >> i'm not sufficiently frankly. and there has to be much more attention to the
5:42 am
whole phase. both to take care of the people. again, there should also be an explicit objective that has announced that we want to make life better for. the palestinians in gaza. and then demonstrate that by what is done on the ground. again, i fully agree with the need to destroy hamas, dismantle the political wing, get their hostages back. but there have to be additional objectives announced that have to do with the people and who's going to administer and oversee the distribution of humanitarian assistance, who's going to restore basic services, begin reconstruction. all of that can be done simultaneously even as they are continuing the operations in central and southern gaza. and it should be done. that should be the approach taken. yes, there will be those that say hamas is an army, not insurgency. fair enough. but you still have to deal with it. and then you have to hold that area or they will reconstitute and that's the other big fear. there are signs of reconstitution in some of the areas of northern gaza general
5:43 am

easily we've got cattle that we're going to have to euthanized because the damage to their hooves, their outers, the ranch, his owner says his cows bring in anywhere from 1,800 to $2,400 each much of it for beef sales. >> it's going to hurt the business extremely bad and it'll take years to recover because it takes years to put a cow herd together before their productive and producing like they should be ended all best to keep them alive. it's not to destroy them and it's tough. it's really tough >> emotionally and financially difficult for a lot lot of people here, but everything i've heard is how grateful they are to the firefighters and specifically to the volunteer firefighters were seeing a community and really a country come together, donating hey, feed, water, fencing material. just everybody doing everything they can for the people of the texas panhandle, sara, for me, i gotta tell you that there's pictures of those

5:57 am
mccarthy that was going to be very difficult to get off of. so last week i heard a lot of grumbling about where this was headed, but very few members threatening that this was going to end speaker johnson's time in the speakership. now, there is a question, what happens to the next six bills? because those bills traditionally have been harder to negotiate things like negotiating spending and policies at the labor department at hhs and dhs, though what was agencies can be a little bit trickier for lawmakers on the republican and democratic side to come to an agreement on. they have until march 22 to get an agreement on that second tranche of bills. but here's why everyone is so motivated at the end of april, if you don't have agreement on these full-year spending packages, what you get it's automatic cuts across the board. that was part of the debt ceiling deal that was passed in the end of last may. the reason for that was to really get everyone to the negotiating table to avoid a situation where you were just
