4:00 am
the danger if they don't run the best campaign >> i don't think there is a danger if they don't run the best campaign because i think donald trump is going to run the campaign. donald trump has consented to run as the incumbent. he has consented to be the topic and so biden in fact, becomes a challenger, which is everyone who says got any complaints against that guy. there a lot of people biden is going to be we put over the top by a lot of people who don't like biden all that much. the people of people who would normally be republicans, people like me who voted for mitt romney biden's not our first choice, but we have to save the country >> that is to the extent that there is a campaign slogan not officially written by the biden campaign. it's probably that one bumper sticker >> all right. thank you so much to our panel for joining us. i really appreciate it. i'm kasie hunt. don't go anywhere. cnn news central starts right now
4:01 am
>> so what kind of a bloodbath was it anyway, donald trump said it this morning. the effort to explain it defended justify it was the context automotive or a pocket liptak deadly st. patrick's day weekend, which shootings across the country several people killed, others injured >> ac of lava lava. the fourth eruption, and i can't do it here we go. the fourth eruption and three months in iceland, forcing major evacuations. it's clearly monday. i'm kidding. hey, baldwin was sarah signer and john berman. this is cnn news central >> this morning, how warm do you like your bloodbath of fierce debate this morning after donald trump said there would be a bloodbath that he is
4:02 am
not elected. the debate is not over whether he said he did he said there would be a bloodbath that v is not elected. the debate is over whether he meant it only in the auto industry because it came during part of his speech where he was talking about cars or if he meant it more broadly. >> here it is. >> we're going to put a 100% tariff on every single car that comes across the line. and your dr. to be able to sell those guys. if i get elected now, if i don't get elected, it's going to be a bloodbath for the whole that's gonna be the least of it. it's going to be a bloodbath for the conscience. >> so the biden campaign latched onto the ward, bloodbath saying, trump wants and other january 6. but republicans say no now say first, he was speaking about the possibility of criminals been among the immigrants and those are the people he was saying may not be people if you will, with regard to the auto workers city was talking to, he is showing them or he's telling
4:03 am
them what has been an economic downturn for them? >> so it is worth noting, it was not the only apata apocalyptic thing he said he did call undocumented immigrants animals, not people. he said folks convicted for actions on january 6, or hostages. and he said that if he does not win democracy will end >> if this lecture, if this election isn't one, i'm not sure that you'll ever have another election in this country. >> and of course. the more important discussion is not about what he said. he said it. it's about what it means if he is elected. cnn's alayna train is with us this morning. republicans around the country playing some clean up this morning that's exactly right, john. and look, i was at that rally this weekend and we really did here the former president used dark rhetoric to paint this doomsday picture of america. if he is, we're not to win the election, come
4:04 am
november and listening to those remarks when i was there on saturday, it was hard to understand exactly what he was referring to when he made the blood bath remark, he was talking about the auto industry. he was talking about wanting to put tariffs on cars made outside of the us. and then he made that comment, warning of a blood of a bloodbath. if you were not to be re-elected. but again, i think it left it up to interpretation and that's why you're seeing all of these different opinions following that rhetoric and lock the trump campaign very quickly issued a statement trying to clarify those comments, they argue that he was warning of an economic bloodbath of the auto industry being economically impacted if he were not reelected. but we also heard from the biden campaign which immediately jumped on these comments, arguing, quote, this is from one of his spokespeople. they said, quote his affection for violence and his thirst for revenge was embodied by those remarks. and so again, very different opinions of what he said, but
4:05 am
luck i think taking a step back, john and just looking at this with a broader lens, this is the same type of fear mongering and dark letter rhetoric that donald trump used in the lead up to his 2016 campaign and to his first win for the white house and something he used very effectively. and we're seeing him tried to implement that fear in republican voters and really general election voters at this point, as he seeks his third white house bid in a later, i think it's important because january 6, of course, happened after 2016, january 6, 2021 is what we're talking about. the way he talks about january 6 is notable it is it's very notable and referring to some of those convicted for their role on january 6 as hostages, >> something we've heard, not only democrats and the biden campaign criticized heavily, but we also heard his former vice president, mike pence criticize that language as well. and speaking over the weekend, argue that he should not be using that term, particularly given what is
4:06 am
happening in the middle east with many hostages being held in gaza, take a listen to how pence put it i think it's very unfortunate at a time that there are american hostages being held in gaza >> that the president or any other leaders would refer to people that are moving through our justice system as hostages and it's just, it's just done susceptible >> now, john, i mean, these remarks from mike pence are very notable and it came shortly after he made clear that he has no plans to endorse his former boss in this race. and it also comes look at pence. he was a loyal soldier to donald trump for several years, but the two fractured over what happened on january you already sick, so you're really seeing a wide array of opinions and a lot of republicans who were once loyal to him, not necessarily being so anymore. john >> alayna treene. thank you very much. adh pens to list kate of former defense
4:07 am
secretary who don't support donald trump's reelection. so many people within his administration who would not like to see him elected once again, so interesting, pence was really trying to focus in on policy >> still, >> when it comes to his separation, which doesn't sound like it's easy being mike pence. mike pence seems to want to try to say something, but the way he gets there is always a winding road. >> it is a path of some kind let's talk more about immigration. was john was talking about, of course, earlier the supreme court could hand down an important ruling today on the controversial texas immigration law. the question is, where does the power bi the state's power begin? in federal power, of federal authority end when it comes to immigration, the texas law currently on hold allow state law enforcement to arrest and detain people suspected of entering the country illegally. >> the >> justices essentially hit the pause button on this law going into effect until today, that pause expires tonight. cnn's kevin liptak is at the white house for us. he's got more on this so everyone's gonna be watching to see what the
4:08 am
supreme court does on this. what's at stake for the biden administration here? kevin >> well, certainly if this law takes effect, it could have wide reaching consequences, not just in texas, but for other states as well who are trying to challenge the biden administration handling of the southern border and the white house and the biden administration has made no bones about it. they believe that this law is extreme. they've called it unconstitutional. and when you read this justice department filing, asking for this law not to be enforced, they say it could profoundly alter the status quo between the federal government and the states that has existed for 150 years when it comes to immigration law, because it has always been the case that the federal government takes precedent and what texas officials are arguing is essentially that they had no choice, that they had to enact this law, which would make it illegal to cross the southern border and have their own police enforce it because what they see as inaction on the part of the federal government when it
4:09 am
comes to this issue. now, what the biden administration is also argued as it could have a diplomatic fallout as well, particularly with the government of mexico, which opposes it gets this is all coming against the backdrop of the presidential election immigration, obviously at the top of voters minds. so however, the court rules say certainly will be thrust into quite a fraught political environment as well. >> that's exactly right. it's great to see you, kevin. thank you so much, sarah. >> all right, knock it off and cool it. no, those are not my words to uk. this is speaker mike johnson, why he's making those demands to members of his own party and a real remarks, vladimir putin mentioning his most famous and now deceased opponent, alexey navalny by name during his election victory speech. and for the very first time in the united states you do not need a prescription to get birth control. the first over-the-counter oral contraceptive goes on sale today today, will discuss we're

the grocery store on pete medina, reagan national airport. this is cnn this morning. one major question is, what will russian president vladimir putin do next? now
4:22 am
that he has secured at least six more years in power, putin in a victory speech overnight, leveled a new threat that world war three would break out if western troops head into support. ukraine. who also directed fully addressed alexey navalny's death, even speaking the opposition leader's name, which for putin won't happen >> make sure trip you >> i wish >> up for mr. navalny. >> he passed away. she's me. >> it has always excited events seen as matthew chance is in moscow for us, matthew, what more are you picking up from what we heard from vladimir putin overnight? >> hey, katie was an extraordinary to hear vladimir putin mentioned alexey navalny's name as you referred to, then he's never uttered that in public before. and so everyone was sort of took a step back when when they heard him say it. he also went on to confirm reports that have been
4:23 am
circulating for some time now that actually the putin, he had agreed to swap alexey navalny or at least to agreed to discuss swapping alexey navalny in a prisoner exchange in the days before the late opposition leader died in his arctic penal colony. but of course, he, their died and that didn't happen. but yeah, an extraordinary sort of post-election set of remarks from the russian president, vladimir putin. he got an enormous proportion of the vote, something in the region of 86.5% according to the figures from the russian election commission, a big turnout as well. he said that that kind of the figure gay your indicated that gave him overwhelming support in the country and he said that the grandiose plans that he'd set for the future of the country. they'd work as hard as they could to try and realize those plans. and he talked specifically about the aims of the ukraine war, what russia calls, or what putin calls a
4:24 am
special military operation, who's going to try and push forward that. and also to strengthen the russian military. and so it putin viewing this election really very much as a mandate for him to continue to press into ukraine. kate and he also waited on us politics as well. yes >> you did. it was it was astonishing really because he was using it to some sites that criticism about the democratic process in russia. of course, this election in opposition figures haven't even been allowed to stand in the vote since there have been critics and others, you saying that, look, it's not democratic at all, presumes certain to win and putin sort of lashed out and said, well, look, what about in the united states, is it democratic for the presumptive republican candidate, donald trump to be targeted by the judiciary. he said that was shaped painful and laughable >> it's good to see you, matthew. thank you so much for reporting always. >> sarah. all right. let's
4:25 am
discuss this morale more with cnn chief national security correspondent, alex marquardt. alex what did you make of putins navalny remarks, he tries very hard not to say his name, especially since you recently had new reporting that talked about this proposed prisoner exchange nobody knew was happening until navalny died what's your reaction to putin now confirming those talks? >> here sarah we appear to have confirmation from the russian president that not only that these talks were happening, but he's also saying that the deal was very close at hand when navalny died. that is something that navalny's team had also said, and i agree with matthew, i think it's really remarkable to hear putin even what are the word navalny? navalny was four years the most popular opposite opposition figure, the most formidable opponent to vladimir putin. and putin would sort of just dismiss him, calling him that character or that
4:26 am
gentleman, among other names. but here perhaps in a sign of the power he now feels he has. that's been renewed because of this reelection. he is saying navalny's name and he's talking about the fact that he was approached by someone outside of the russian government about the potential for a deal to swap navalny and putin says that he agreed to it immediately before the sentence was even out of it. this person's mouth. but then navalny died. here's a little bit more of what putin had to say >> the person who spoke to me had not finished his sentence yet. when i said i agree. but unfortunately, what happened happened there was only one condition for him not to come back let him sit there >> now, sarah, my call sebastian shukla, tim lister, and myself have recently reported that actually a message was delivered to the kremlin on february 15th. it was done on february 16. that
4:27 am
word came that navalny had died and one of the main figures in this exchange we understand is roman abramovich. she is a russian oligarch. he's the former owner of chelsea soccer club and he was we are told involved in this process. the deal was centered on an exchange for an fsb assassin named vadim krasikov who's being held in germany. but i think the big question right now, sarah, is, how far along was this deal i'd been told by western diplomat, it was at about a seven or eight out of ten, but then another us official told me that no deal was imminent. here you have putin saying the opposite, that it was very close at hand when navalny died, sarah well, let's talk about he also mentioned russia's war on ukraine and made a really bold statement talking about >> the potential of world war three. how are the us and nadir always responding to what sounds like a threat? >> it certainly is a threat and
4:28 am
it's more saber-rattling from vladimir putin. this is the kind of thing we have been hearing for quite some time since this war in ukraine started just last week, vladimir putin was talking about the possibility of using nuclear weapons. certainly something he said that is on the table this is not something that is dismissed by the us and other nato countries. there's certainly raises the fear of escalation. this is why the us has been proceeding so carefully throughout this conflict in terms of what weaponry is given to ukraine, how, what level of support is given to ukraine and the us, for example, tells ukraine you can't use the weapons that we give you inside of russia because of the fear of that escalation. now, what putin was responding to hear was recent comments by the french president emmanuel macron, who said, he didn't rule out the possibility of western troops going into ukraine. now that is something that other leaders in nato and in the west have set is certainly not going to happen, but macro continues to push this and here you have putin saying that if that were to happen, it was certainly
4:29 am
raised the possibility of a world war, world war three. now that putin has secured this fifth term cr, i think what this is going to do is really emphasize the fact that nato and the us supporters of ukraine need to step up that military aid for ukraine so they can continue that fight against russia so that western forces don't need to go into ukraine and continue fighting. certainly a reminder to republicans here in the united states, for that support that is needed for ukraine. sarah alex marquardt. thank you for all your reporting on this today and long before john starting this morning, birth control pills can be ordered online without a prescription. a look at who can get them in where it was posted just moments ago, don lemon is interview with elon musk is out. musk likes to claim he supports free speech but not apparently when it comes to what he gets asked, dawns questions that had musk canceled their contract this is

4:38 am
love nothing more than to just go after democrats. but if republicans are going to dress up like democrats in drag, i'm going to go after them too, because at the end of the day, we're not judged by how many republicans we have in congress. we're judged on whether or not we save the country tree. >> and joining me right now here in studios, pete seat, former white house spokesman for president george w bush and more gillespie, former press advisor to then speaker of the house, john boehner, and more recently, adam kinzinger. it's great to see you guys how okay. first and foremost, what do you think is really going on here? not just with matt gaetz, but with their the internal fights are now i mean, they're trying to eat their own in a primary. >> right. and i mean, when i went for trump painter, he was known for having a policy against even getting involved in these kind of right. you know, incumbent versus incumbent? matchups. and so it's interesting that secret johnson is speaking out on this. i'm glad that he is trying to get a handle on his razor thin majority. he
4:39 am
currently has and encouraging members to knock it off. i mean, that they need to write this is not helpful to him or to the republican conference at all. does not get off seems is it going to work? i mean, is just saying and even saying it publicly and saying don't you know, don't primary, don't campaign against each other as one thing. is it going to work from what you have seen with how this party is operating the house will not with matt gaetz there's nothing that matt gaetz loves more than a television camera. and this gets him the attention that he craves and the attention that he seeks. he and his little merry band of troublemakers want to put us republicans on the fast track to the minority and i really do believe that i don't believe i don't think they want to win because winning means you have to have ideas and they would rather just complain about democrats, complain about the way things are going are in the majority now, i don't think they let me look at what they did i really think they prefer he does not every republican in

the caucus prefers to be in the minority. it's easier that way, i thought easier to complain write it easier to complain than it is to lead. >> and we've got what's a bigger challenge for republicans this cycle then donald trump at the top of the ticket, since we have seen that hasn't proven helpful in any cycle since he was she got him since he got himself elected down-ballot or what we're seeing here with republicans in the house. what do you think is the bigger challenge for the republicans in congress? i do think it sounds trump at the top of the ticket. he stands as he's taken on things like abortion and other things that republicans and republicans in congress have taken aren't going to win them a general election comments. he's made over the weekend are not going to help him in a general election stoking fear and baiting to the far right flank of the party share that gets you applauses at a crowd that is maga, to the extreme. but you're not going to get people who are maybe not as outspoken. but sure. do care about all these issues. you're not going to get them to your side. you know, the ballot box, this kind of leads right into donald
4:41 am
trump and his rhetoric the same and the same continues. we now, donald trump talking about a bloodbath over the weekend. if he's not elected above a bloodbath for the auto industry and more, you can assume trump calling migrants animals and saying some are even people. this shows that donald trump is leaning in to his instincts and shows that he's not leaning into the middle as one would generally assume. and bygone days one does for a general, when you turn to a general election. and this tells you what pete about the next 30 plus weeks. >> it's going to be what it has been from day one. it's deja vu all over again. we went through this exact same routine with this exact same language about ms 13 gangs not being people, being animals. we did this in 2017. we did it again in 2018 words matter. and donald trump knows that, but he is very skilled at conflating
4:42 am
issues and not being precise in his language. and you can hear what you want to hear. nancy pelosi, the biden campaign, their hearing. one thing today republicans are hearing a completely different first thing and it's putting republicans in that hot seat and they're gonna be there between now and november, if it keeps this up and i have no reason to believe he won't let me play something. not of the comments that he made every weekend, but in an interview with how occurred he was asked about his rhetoric, trump was it was asked about this. let me play what he said >> it also gives people thinking about very important issues that if you don't use certain rhetoric have you don't use certain words that maybe are not very nice words nothing will happen. that did stare debate >> no one pays attention unless you use the words that he's using is what he's saying to me. do you think words matter should words matter? yes. but do you think words matter in this moment in this election cycle? what do you think of how
4:43 am
he mischaracterizing? >> i do i think it matters and me where you've seen it again you pointed out earlier we as republicans have not one with donald trump as the top of our ticket. we have not one with him at the helm of the republican party. so his words and how he behaves does matter and again, like i said, that people who are on the far right, they may be jazzed up over it, but it's certainly isn't helping us get any wins. certainly not helping legislative wins. but i also would point out that for people who are in favor of donald trump role's reversed, how would you feel if joe body was out here saying those things? would you be up in arms and would you be all upset about what he was saying? yes, you would be. so people are just really struggling to nazi the hypocrisy and i. have to give it a specialty part about all of this. >> it's great to see you guys think, i hope you're not frustrated here. is. >> thank you so much. john. >> so this morning, mother nature seems confused, more than half of the us population will get hit with temperatures at or below freezing that after this week of incredible

4:45 am
of the rising sea levels that have occurred over the past hundred years. we've seen rising sea levels by 1.15 feet with a projected six feet increase by the end of the century. so they're rehabilitating the title wall there to just reinforce that and be prepared for that. so we've got shorter winters, less cold snaps. in fact, we saw at degree temperatures in the nation's capital, we go what are these natural cycles like blooming cherry blossoms to get an idea of what type of winter we had. and it certainly was a warm one, but it won't feel like that this week because 185 million people are at threat of below freezing temperatures. so john, if you planted your vegetable garden this weekend, cover them up and they could die. that's the reality. i listened to my own advice. i hope you did too. i talked about it last week with you guys. >> what i'm hoping is that the weeds that started to come up in my lawn way earlier than usual they get killed and the gold. >> yes. i think there's thank you very much. is there? all right. it's now time for some good stuff for you this morning and dogon, texas has had it rough, waiting years to be

4:53 am
prisoners released in exchange for potentially all the female hostages, including idf soldiers, the elderly, sick, and the wounded. so the hope is that there could be some kind of breakthrough or that we have already eddie heard from israel's prime minister saying that he believed that hamas is counter-proposals, outlandish, and unrealistic, but he has still send a delegation cation here. and there were meetings, key meetings set by the war cabinet and security cabinet in israel yesterday on sunday where they drew out the red lines how far they're mossad director could go in agreeing what hamas was looking for. so we'll monitor that throughout the day and also we know there is that significant for current operation, ongoing in gaza at this point, we've spoken to one of the doctors within the al shifa medical complex and he says that one of the surgical buildings is on fire. this is where all the operations for all departments were taking place. he said there were many patients who had just undergone

medical procedures and were unable to move to the ministry of health saying that there have been casualties and there are many wounded as well. the israeli military saying the reason they are there is because they have intelligence that hamas terrorists are operating out of the hospital and they have now just said, everyone in the neighborhood of this hospital. so right ending the medical complex has to evacuated. they have to head west towards the sea and then they have to head south several kilometers to an area that the idea has described as a humanitarian zone. now we've heard from eyewitnesses within the hospital as well, saying that they have been fired upon as they tried to move from different buildings, as they moved inside the hospital the idf saying, everybody has to stay where they are at this point inside the hospital as they conduct this operation but we are hearing from eyewitnesses and the ministry of health that there have been casualties and with it surgical building on fire that they were
