news to start this, our unborn sanchez, alongside erica hill and cnn newsroom central issues in for brianna keilar today. starting and fulton county district attorney fani willis is pushing forward with her goal of starting donald trump's election interference trial this summer. >> sources telling us she plans to ask judge scott mcafee to put that case on the calendar after a two-month detour. of course i'll willis fend off an effort to be removed from the case siemens, that cohen joining us now with the very latest. so bring us up to speed. once it on the calendar this summer, what are the chances? >> yeah. boris and erica, multiple sources telling me that look, fani willis is going to once again asked judge scott mcafee to set a trial date for donald trump and his remaining co-defendants in the georgia case and set one for as soon as this summer that would obviously be before set one for august 5th is that
11:01 am
put one on the calendar for trump to stand trial in georgia, and it's this second request, but by all means be a boolean move from fani willis considering what we've been talking about for the last two months, we've been talking about allegations of an improper romantic relationship that willis had with her special prosecutor. what sources close to her even acknowledged was a major distraction in this case. but now that willis has at least been told she could remain on the case by judge mcafee. she thinks it's time now to push him to put a trial date on the calendar and we could see that come in the coming weeks. now, look, that doesn't discount the challenges that you still going to face mcafee obviously, was really critical of willis's credibility, really criticizing her for her actions that almost got her disqualified from case. and also the threat of his qualification still looms it was over willis and appeals court is going to decide whether or not it wants to review mcafee is order that allowed her to stay on the case. they've about 45 days and say whether or not they're going to do that. so all of this swirling, but willis trying to set those case back
11:02 am
on track, trying to work towards a trial at a time when she's just emerging from probably the most chaotic two months of her for entire time on this case >> yeah. full of emotional testimony, fiery testimony from the district attorney on the stand. is that cohen thanks so much for the update. let's bring in >> yeah, boris, i don't think it's realistic to try this and this given that the judge has made clear that he wants to keep moving towards trial, deciding motions, and so on, that she's seek a trial date and get it on the calendar. but to me 14 defendants are rico case you'll have really lengthy three selection processes. it just doesn't seem to me. we're almost in april that it's likely that this can be tried in the summer, especially because as
11:03 am
has been noted, the last two months, really nothing has happened while we've been absorbed with the disqualification motion. >> nothing has happened on that front, but a lot is happened if we're looking at what's happening outside the court in terms of public opinion, you talk about how long it would take with all of those defendants for a jury pool. we also have the added issue of what people may or may not have been following during that very emotional explosive, revealing testimony yeah, we do. >> i mean, the judge in ruby commented that we're still a ways away from picking a jury. so time will pass and it will dissipate the impact of any statements like that. >> but you know, people for people's memories are funny, right? if they're following it, they likely will remember what happened in the last couple of weeks. so really what you're looking for is not so much time to go by so that people forget.
11:04 am
>> you need to >> pick people who just really haven't followed this at all. i think that's definitely possible. i think we'd all be surprised as close please. we follow the news. how many people in a jury box don't do it themselves but when you talk about a case that involves names like donald j. trump and some of the other boldfaced names here it's likely that a lot of people will have some idea of what's happened here. and the defense is going to keep beating those drums about the improper relationship that just qualification and so on so i do think that jury selection is going to be an issue here and the further away it gets the better it is for being able to find a jury that doesn't have any biases in place >> one more thing that is still out there that needs to be determined. the supreme court it's going to weigh this question of presidential immunity, right? how could that decision and the amount of time that it takes to get to that decision and publish it potentially impact this timetable set by fani willis so
11:05 am
it only impacts donald trump himself, of course, because he's the only one who has a presidential immunity arguments. so all of these other 13 defendants still in the case. it doesn't impact them at all. >> but we're expecting >> to hear from the supreme court by june, which is where when they're year ends. >> if somehow how they actually picked a jury and empaneled the jury before we hear from the supreme court that that's it for chunk, right? he of course, would be out of the case if he wins. but there's a possibility that even if he doesn't win, that they draw the line somewhere. a jury gets in paneled ultimately, he has to be dismissed out of that and double jeopardy has attached so it's very complicated. but again, it does only impact donald trump. i mean, remember we have 13 other defendants here who fani willis is looking to try and the presidential immunity issue doesn't have anything to do with them. >> all right. jennifer rodgers, always good to have your expertise stay with us though, because we're also following some other developments this time out of new york york,
11:06 am
where the attorney general's office is now making moves suggesting that the state at this point may start to try to see some of the former president's assets if he fails to pay that nearly half $1 billion bond in his civil fraud case, something that as we know right now, he cannot do his lawyers who have argued he'll be unable to satisfy that and there's that deadline looming only about four days away. cnn's kara scannell is on this kera. what are you learning that letitia james is weighing here what moves is she making toward this? >> so earlier this month, just about a week after the judge finalize the 400 million judgment that trump personally faces new york attorney general's office filed this judgment in westchester county. what that means is that it sets the stage or makes it possible for her to potentially move forward to try to seize assets in westchester? that's where he has a golf course also the family compound known as seven springs in a state across thing over three different
11:07 am
jurisdictions, but it doesn't necessarily mean that she's going to move to seize those specific assets if it comes to that the judgment is also in new york where trump has a lot of properties. trump tower his pentose it's apartment there, the hotel at the corner of central park, as well as the office building, 40 wall street. so it's essentially making it possible to set the groundwork that if she does want to move forward to put liens on these properties, are moved to initiate foreclosure proceedings. that is in place. they are on notice now, i also check some of the county clerk's offices in some of the other places where trump has properties in florida, in chicago. i didn't see any judgments there as of now. so right now it looks like the set, the stage is getting set to move in new york. but of course there is still time, although that clock is ticking as trump is waiting to see if the appeals court is going to allow them to post a smaller amount or allow him to not post any money until they appeals over the new york attorney general's office has opposed that in trump's still does not have the money to satisfy that half $1,000,000,000 judgment. boris, erica in terms of that
11:08 am
right. >> are >> there any other options at this point? we know we've been talking about, of course, the 30 comedies that refuse to loan the underwrite that money. and the deadline is bohr's point out is looming as you're talking about, are there any other options left? >> so >> trump could potentially >> take out a mortgage on some of his properties. that's pretty complicated. a lot of the large financial institutions stopped doing business with trump years ago. also, some properties. there are questions about what their value is. that was the issue in this whole case that the judge found that trump inflated the value. so company is generally would want they do their own homework before deciding whether to issue a mortgage on a property and also mortgage interest rates are high right now that makes the cost of doing that pretty expensive. and we've seen trump publicly state that this is an expensive process for him that is one option. there could be a donor that comes in last minute and offers to give trump cash for this remains to be seen if anyone credible is going to do that, and then he could potentially have a fire cell of
11:09 am
one of his properties on his own mean the clock there again, it's ticking, it seems that is unlikely. surely trump's are working behind the scenes as they're facing this deadline. but if not, we'll see what happens on monday era floras now thank you so much. let's bring jennifer rodgers back-end. so jennifer, let's say march 25th comes this bond isn't paid. >> how >> quickly will we find out if donald trump is going to have properties seized? >> well, it'll be still a bit of time, boris, there's a whole legal process around seizing assets. >> first >> step, apparently, to shames and her team has already started, which is to file the judgments and the relevant jurisdictions, but that's only the first step. and it's even more complicated when it comes to real property because it's not like monday, you're just going to see a team of sheriffs go up and put a padlock on a building or anything like that. there's paperwork, steps trump may have the ability to
11:10 am
challenge some of those steps before things are actually seized. and of course, seizure and then sale and then taking the asset. so it will be while before anything really happens. but i think that will we we will heard something from the court between now and then because there's a lot of scrambling going on, so i expect we'll hear something from the court one way or the other, whether they send it back to judge engoron for some fact-finding about what's been done and possible solutions or whether the cord itself will speak. we'll find out >> we also use carroll pointed out she she went and looked such a miami schlechter, palm beach county, cook county in illinois, know judgments enter there. but when people think of the property that donald trump owns the most well-known would be of course, mar-lago and trump tower in new york do you see either one of those realistically being seized >> i mean, it's really hard to say. it just depends on how many acids there are that are
11:11 am
in new york, new york assets are easier for the attorney general to get to because they're here, they can file more easily. so i think they would probably we start there and remember it's not just real estate even though trump doesn't have enough in cash or cash-like assets like securities to cover the entire bill. he has some so you would want to probably start with those liquid assets anyway. and then for the real estate that does exist, some of them, some of that value is already encumbered and other places it says as he's taken loans out based on the collateral of those real estate properties. so it's not as if you have the whole value of a mar-a-lago for example, even if you knew what that value was, which of course is part of the whole reason that we're here in the first place is that those values were exaggerated. so it depends, but but we'll see what they do >> it is a complicated picture. i've one more procedural question for you, jennifer. there was this debate between the trump team and the ag the trump team saying, we looked at
11:12 am
30 different companies, nobody could provide us this massive figure, $464 million. letitia james argued back essentially saying, well, maybe they can't give you all of that, but you can go to these companies and separately, they can give you small chunks that then add up to that number. is that a realistic argument from the ag could trump pursue that? >> sure. and in fact, the one thing that team trump did say is why don't you make it just 100 loan at $1 million bond and then that we can do so. then the question becomes, well, then why don't you just do two of those are three of those are four of those or however many you can get >> there. there's one of the problem problems here and i think the ag puts her finger on it in her responses, there was not much transparency around what the trump team actually did and what negotiations are actually were with these 30 companies. so it very well may be that there's the opportunity to piece together smaller bonds to make up the whole amount. the issue is just making sure that the people people can be whole at the end
11:13 am
of this, if at the end of the long appeal, the large judgment is still upheld, then they need to be paid. so that's what the bond is four, but there's no reason they can't be a bit creative about how to make sure that money is there >> one scenario, as you mentioned, we wind up seeing a fact-finding mission to figure out just how extensive the trump team his research wasn't in trying to get this bond. jennifer rodgers, appreciate the time. thanks so much >> thanks. >> of course >> so we're keeping a close eye on the dow because it is flirting with a historic number. look at that >> nearly nearing >> 40,000, a number of the index hasn't seen since it was founded, 120 plus years ago, cnn's rahel solomon joining us now with more so obviously the market doing, doing well. the historical context here though, just over 15 years ago, the great recession, the dow was at 6,500, just a couple of years ago. right? it was just around 20,000. so the fact that we are now closing in so quickly
11:14 am
40,000. what should we make of that jump >> yeah. i mean, it's really been a remarkable period, i think just the last few years and certainly the last year or so. so if you're looking at the markets right now, are as of late, you see investors really seizing on a few things, three things in particular, one, the prospect of rate cuts in 2024, the fed just yesterday essentially reiterating their outlook, three rate cuts in 2020 for investors like that, you see, investors reacting to the fact that the us continues to show signs of pretty solid growth, investors like that. and then also when you're looking at tech stocks, it's the artificial intelligence boom. and so that's sort of fueling the market enthusiasts because i'm that we have seen as of late, but aerope, you're absolutely right. if you take a step back, if you take a look at the broader perspective of the dow over the last few years. at times it has been a bumpy ride. it has been a volatile, right. and we can pull it up for you if you look at late march of 2020, for example, you see the dow plummet. i mean, it's pretty dramatic there you see the dow plummet to about 18,000. let's
11:15 am
call it 213 points in late march. this is also around the same time, march, of course of 2020 the emergence of covid. remember and so this is also around the same time that the fed comes out with these unscheduled march meetings, announcing that they're slashing rates. it was really traumatic. it was a very dramatic period for. the markets we actually found one of those clips from march of 2020. take a listen to chairman jay powell >> we reduced the target range for our policy interest rate by one percentage point bringing it close to zero. and said that we expect to maintain the rate at this level until we're confident that the economy has weathered recent events >> so guys, rates for at practically zero. imagine, i mean, the difference a few years can make, right? so fast forward a few years. we're still dealing with supply chain issues from covid many places around the world are dealing with a decades-high inflation, including here in the us and you see the fed do the opposite. you see them boost
11:16 am
rates to a level at a level and at a pace that we haven't seen in a really long time. and the fear guys was that anytime in the past the fed has had to boost rates as much and as quickly as they did, it almost always meant a recession, but that didn't happen this time, at least not yet. at least not in the data we see so investors are reacting to that. now i just talked to mark zandi, the chief economist of moody's analytics. and i said, mark, look, i mean two-thirds of americans roughly are invested in the stock market, whether it's individual stocks, whether it's there for one k, what do they make of this news? what do they make up the markets? and he said he sent me a statement. he said, as someone once said, the stock market isn't the economy, but it's not not the economy. >> the >> soaring stock market is a strong endorsement of the strength of the prospects for lower interest rates. and another good lesson to never bet against the american economy. he did also tell me guys though that at times socks go up, socks go down, they go all around. so keep your your eye on the long term, but perspective is important and a little bit of advice, courtesy
11:17 am
of mark sandi will take it. does that mean i should or should not look at the four with k today, really, i think that's what we all should today, right? you deserve erica >> yeah >> real thing. >> thanks so much for help. >> we do want to go straight to cairo overseas right now. sure. secretary of state antony blinken is speaking to the press. he is on another tour of the middle east anticipating major talks tomorrow to exchange potentially hostages in gaza, for palestinian prisoners. and let's listen in to the secretary of state giving an update now on where talks stand if and as the palestinian authority pursues reform, i'm also convinced that the region will strongly supported regional integration is one of the building blocks of lasting peace and lasting security and that includes normalization for israel with its neighbors yesterday, i had an opportunity to meet again with saudi crown prince mohamed bin salman, as well as with
11:18 am
foreign minister >> and we >> had a very good discussion about the work that we've been doing for many months now on normalization. and that work is moving forward. we're continuing to make good progress. i believe we can reach an agreement which would present a historic opportunity for two nations. but also for the region as a whole so i think if you look back on these past couple of months since i was here in january we have been working very closely together with our partners on all of these post-conflict pieces there's not only more consensus on the priorities ceasefire release of hostages humanitarian assistance and a clear pathway and plan for the future. i think there's increasingly consensus on the steps needed to achieve that
11:19 am
these are difficult days but that only reinforces our determination to get to better days. >> thank you >> again. so any liquid noisier so the sadow should any for that it was to start with ms suresh or any form destroy newspaper base so eva mind with my question is for his excellency, mr. sameh shoukry what you would have been my whole today's meeting is distorted. the meeting which we do an automobile administrators foreign affairs of six contrary is to tackle the how to deal with the crisis in gaza treble. >> were >> these meetings, of course include them, minister of foreign affairs and the united states. >> after the visits of >> mester blinken and the region, can you live? >> would they >> form us with deep spaces of agreement and disagreement on how to get out of this current crisis and to explain to us how depositions are close to each other regarding the future vision in dealing with the egyptian, the estonian issue. i
11:20 am
believe that there's a great ground do regarding deep concerns since this may it was worth of ceasefire. >> jerry blinken, of course, in cairo on the heels of his means in saudi arabia talking about these discussions, right? this is his six trip. of course, to the region since the war broke out calling these difficult days, but says it in his determination to get through those difficult days as they work with this consensus of countries to try to come to some sort of an agreement for a ceasefire. and of course, for the release of those israeli hostages. >> now he outlined the priorities in those talks, a ceasefire, humanitarian assistance into gaza, the release of hostages, and notably a path toward the future. and that is where there is perhaps the most disagreement among everyone involved. notably, he also talked about meeting with mohamed bin salman the crown prince of saudi arabia yesterday, talking about the process of normalization between saudi arabia and israel still being something that they're working on experts point to that potential normalization as part of the

11:26 am
onboard a delta flight on sunday by taking advantage age of unsuspecting passengers at the gate. officials say he got through after snapping a picture of someone else's boarding pass and it was likely a minor traveling by herself from a flight from salt lake city to austin according to court documents, quote, when the females boarding pass with scan, the system showed that she was already on board. >> see you in an >> correspondent pete muntean joins us now, peter, it was a flight attendant who flagged this accused stowaway. >> this is a little bit of catch me if you can, a little bit of titanic here. and so there's sort of intersecting, sorry to keep it on liaam movies a lot of stowaways on airplanes try to get into the baggage area or maybe into a wheel well of an airplane, rarely ever do they get past the gate agent. this has to be one of the more crafted cases us attorney's have charged this texas man for sneaking onboard a delta flight bound to austin has happened in salt lake city on sunday, st. patrick's day, and court documents say 26 year-old why
11:27 am
cliff flores ard was planning to fly standby on a southwest flight? that flight was overbooked, so investigators say flores ard, one to the gate of this delta flight police were viewed the security footage which showed flores ard in the boarding area taking photos of multiple passengers, phones, and boarding passes while they were not looking the criminal complaint says flores are scanned his fake ticket boarded the plane, locked himself in the bathroom and did not come out until after the plane pushed back from the gate. let's play might have worked if he did not get questioned by i have flight attendant and court documents say this flores ard indicated to the flight attendant that his seat was 21 f the flight attendant verified that the passenger who is in c 21 was the individual who had purchased and had been ticketed for that seat and it was not flores arts are clearly this created a lot of confusion on board. flight attendants were able to figure out this man was not on their manifest pretty quickly, so they taxi back to the gate where the police were
11:28 am
waiting. police say floors are told them he got bumped from his original flight onto a later flight and was simply trying to get home and made a mistake. now he's facing one count of stowing away in a vessel or aircraft. when's the last time you heard that charge? that can carry a prison time of up to five years. flores ard was in court today. he is being released on conditions and has been assigned a public defender. this happened on st. patrick's day. know luck of the iris for him >> how is this like titanic, pete, leah i got a ticket. >> it's been awhile. sorry, man >> this is going to be like i started crying castlight. >> i got jack was a stowaway and >> store crazy store. >> no >> doubt. >> team. thank you so much. let's turn now to david soucie former faa safety inspector and cnn safety analysts thanks so much for being with us, david, is this alleged stowaway situation just an isolated incident or assigned to you that perhaps there's a greater systemic vulnerability >> to me. it does say that there's a systemic
11:29 am
vulnerability and the fact that once someone's ticketed and gets through the security and very first part of the flight that's when the opportunity exists. for example, you could get a flight for ticket for one flight and then bring something else onto a different in flight, which creates all kinds of issues. it is very serious crime would happen here it was fraudulent and it was i'm surprised that that is only facing the charges he is. i think this is much more serious than what people think it might be. >> definitely. and when it comes to airport security, there are multiple layers you have to get through to get on the plane. i'm surprised that it was as simple as just him taking a picture of someone else's ticket. and that's somehow just got him on board yeah >> we focused a lot on forge tickets and that sort of thing as far as getting through security, what is the vulnerability that's brought up here that needs to be addressed is the fact that you can buy a ticket for a different flight to access the area where we are boarding. and then from that point you have carte blanche to
11:30 am
go wherever you want. and the fact that the gate agent didn't catch this, the system, another level of we talk about these layers of swiss cheese that allow these threats to get through. but the fact is this threat, i'll win all the way through. there had to be multiple failures. he got himself through that first one by having a ticket to a different flight. but the second layer is when the gate agent checks it as they check in, you've done it get you can see it danes and it says, yes, everything's okay. but if there's a duplicate ticket that scan that system is designed to make that warning at that point before anybody ever gets down the down the runway into the airplane. so there's definitely some vulnerabilities and that system, whether it's human failure, whether it's a systemic failure that is yet to be determined, but it is a serious failure in my mind. >> yeah. >> david, what we have, we also want to ask about a report regarding federal regulators conducting a privacy review of data policies at america's top ten airlines. what is that review and tail, what, what do
11:31 am
you think they might find? >> well it has a lot to do there's several different tiers of it. but if you think about just the hipaa regulations about regulatory information or information about your own personal health. now, if there's a hipaa violation, which there could possibly be here if they're asking for health information about passengers or, even employees of the airline they can ask that information. if that information is transferred, are moved without the permission of the person that's that owns that data, which is you for your own health care information, then that can be moved and it's actually a federal crime and it can be a civil penalty of up to 25 to 35,000 dollars per event. so it's a very serious thing as well. and privacy of information in today's world, as you know, i had my id stolen from me and i have to use different social security numbers and everything else. so it's definitely possible to happen and it does. but when it happens with your own personal information, that becomes very serious and it needs to be
11:32 am
looked at again and it's another one of these threats or vulnerabilities that exist in air travel >> yeah, better to get out ahead of it now before it becomes a much broader problem david soucie, appreciate the perspective, thanks. >> all right. thank you. >> of course >> so it is sentencing de for the last of six former mississippi sheriff's deputies who pleaded guilty to torturing two black men their court appearances, capping and emotion a week of testimony in a horrific case, we have the latest and just a few minutes >> there is no media personality >> businesswoman celebrity chef, like her >> the many lives of martha stewart now streaming on mac not flossing. well, then add the wo of listerine to your routine. new science shows listerine is five times more effective than plus ev reducing plaque above the gum line for

easy. get started today at hi, melanie zanona on capitol hill. and this is cnn >> in mississippi. the last of the so-called goon squad deputies is being sentenced today for torturing two black men. the gruesome details of these racially motivated beatings, torture sexual assaults, even a mock execution who should have played out in court. all six of the former law enforcement officers pleaded guilty back in august to federal charges. attorney general merrick garland spoke out against their heinous acts, attacks earlier this week. this morning, former rankin county deputy brett mcalpin, who you see there on the left? was sentenced to more than 27 in prison. now he was the highest ranking officer on the scene. and soon the man on the right that as former richland police officer joshua hartfield will learn his fate cnn senior national correspondent ryan young joins us from jackson, mississippi where he has been following this case, but also you've been caught throughout these proceedings. ryan what
11:38 am
more did you hear in court today >> look, i think some of us are still shocked by some of the new details that we're learning. a team of us have been following the story for almost a year now. and today, when we talk about the racial motivated part of this, what we are also learning is there are plenty of people who are white, who are showing up to now complain about these officers and the role they played. we learned that the fourth highest ranking member of the sheriff's department that's brett mac alkyne. he actually showed up off duty and civilian clothes and watched all this go down eddie parker really put it in sum that up really well, he says, everyone's begging for mercy now, but that night while we were being tortured, beaten, waterboarded, taese over and over shot we begged for our lives and no one felt for us. so you can understand the pain that's still going on here, gets 27 years on top of all that a lot of people were
11:39 am
concerned about or even talking about in the gallery was the fact that my captains attorney was a black man. take a listen to that. some of the defense and some of the reasons why he thought his client should have less time i think for mr. mcalpin will be sentenced to more time than actual person who who shot >> mr. jenkins i bought i bought against that, but unfortunately, you respect the course it's ruling when they make a ruling, but, you know mostly in the work we put into this you know, you disappointed that you didn't receive the outcome that you want to, but i do think again the court has the final say in this >> i think it's important as we talked to all sides here, because many of the men who've been accused keep pointing to the top, they safe for them to get raises and to get promotions and to become investigators that they had to continue this path pattern of
11:40 am
beating people over and over for the defense's part, they were trying to say this was not racially motivated, but you can understand there are so many people when you talk about some of the things that we've heard in court about trying to force menn intersexual positions, try to get them to shower with each other they're just not buying that. one of the other things that stood out to us as they call it the calvin, the dawn of the goon squad, and that he was sort of the leader on the inside. >> but >> other people are pointing to the top and saying this all comes from the sheriff and they're hoping that the fbi or the doj stepson two investigate this entire department, because not only are you talking about a sheriff's department that was out there arresting people? you have a jail and people are concerned about the safety of the folks who are in that jail on a day-to-day basis. so this conversation obviously obviously, is that over, but so much emotion tied to this, especially when you're here in 2023, men could be brutalized for over 88 minutes taese over 30 times. it's something that we all have to continue to talk about and pay attention to as

come to you 808 to 14000 so michele morrow was not expected to win her republican primary race for north carolina's top public school official. then in an upset last week, she did. and when she did her extreme and controversial comments began getting attention last friday, cnn's kfile reported that she has, for example, tweeted about wanting to see former president obama put in front of a firing squad on paper view saying, quote, we could make some money back from televising his death morrow has made suggestions about executing obama and other prominent democrats for treason, including then president elect biden. and the biden tweet. here's how she answered the question, quote, will you follow joe biden's advice and wear a mask for 100 days? >> never. she replies, quote, we need to follow the constitution's advice and kill all traitors morrow has also promoted various q and on
11:46 am
conspiracy theories as part of that kfile reports, cnn reached out to her and her campaign multiple times to try to get her side of the story, but they never received a response after publication of the kfile story, morrow tweeted the following quote according to kff and cnn. cnn politics. obama's drone attacks on hundreds of innocent muslims in yemen are not treasonous the insanity of the media demonstrates the need to teach k through 12 students real history and critical thinking skills, which doesn't directly address the multiple social media postings we just listed. so we sent cnn senior crime and justice correspondent shimon prokupecz down in north carolina to try and speak to her in person? >> shimon. >> how did that go >> well, it took several days and then we finally caught up with her. she was actually attending a wake county. this is the county that she lives in. it was a convention there.
11:47 am
and she went there to meet with delegates, to meet with other republicans. and after a couple of hours, when she came out, we finally got a chance to speak with her. take a look at that exchange >> hi. ms morrow how are you how did it go in there >> yeah. great. good. who are you guys with? >> i'm shimon prokupecz on with cnn. >> have you been parked in my neighborhood by any chance? >> we've been trying to talk to you? yes >> okay. >> well, you can go through my seven i have you now. so why don't we talk now? no. no, no, not >> well, i want to ask you, do >> you still stay? and i'm not talking too, ma'am, do you still stand by your comments about former president barack obama and that he should be executed the calling for the death of other presidents. >> do you >> stand by that we're doing do you stand by those comments? have a good night. do you stand by >> what you've said about the public education system and
11:48 am
that it needs to be destroyed? no. do you stand by that? do you understand the concern that people have with this nomination that you now have? >> and do you vote in north carolina >> keep your eyes on your own paper >> well, let me ask you i i've read i've read papers. so >> here to keep your >> eye, turns, people have with your nomination and the things that you have set people in new york have concern over the country really concerned about north carolina. do you know that education is a problem in this entire country? so maybe they need to focus on what's going on in your state of new york, which by the way is where i grew up maybe they need to focus on what's going on in california where children are not getting the education that they need. maybe they need to focus on what they're doing in michigan because right now in north carolina, i'm focused on helping the families of north carolina for their children to get quality education for them to be safe and for us to be sure that our money is going into the classroom. rather than bureaucracies. that's what i've been focusing on. that's what i've been fighting for for the

11:50 am
talk about you know, what gives her the experience to be the superintendent, which is a hugely important position here. and hugely constant she would be overseeing a public school education system with 1,000,000.5 students a massive budget and would give her a massive platform and a place to speak on a podium that has huge consequences. and such a huge reach so understand there's so many people in the state who are so concerned with the things that she has said and are just worried. the other thing is there's just this lack of empathy from her and understanding that how some of the things she has said could be really hurtful to many of the students in the kids that go to public school here and just how detached her comments are from reality as well i bet she's going to start parking a lot closer to the door. shimon prokupecz. appreciate the reporting thanks so much still
