great teacher when i was a child who taught me absolutely these professors at cambridge may be very knowledgeable and learn it and erudite. but this teacher taught me that when it comes to animal personality mind that emotion, they're wrong. and that was my dog. >> her dog called rusty now, she is of course, an active environmentalist and two celebrate her inspirational legacy, 90 female photographers are collaborating on a project called the naturof hope. 90 prints in honor of jane goodall with 60% of all the proceeds jane gooll ititute. and you n watch my fl conversation with jane along with all those interviews at amanpour.com and don't forget all of our shows are available as podcast cnn.com slash podcast and on all other major platforms. i'm christiane amanpour in london. thank you for watching and see
9:01 am
you again next week >> hello everyone. thank you so much for joining me this saturday. i'm fredricka whitfield. >> all right. right. now us is on high alert and actively preparing for a significant potential attack by iran on us and israeli targets in the middle east soon as next week, that's according to a senior biden administration official, iran is blaming israel for an airstrike in syria this week that killed at least seven iran let me and officials, including two top military commanders, were also following an important development in the humanitarian aid crisis in gaza israel is preparing to reopen the erez crossing in northern gaza, at least temporarily to bring in aid that move follows a meeting between president biden is israeli prime minister met navajo. this wig the backdrop to all of this tomorrow, mark six months since
9:02 am
the hamas attack on israel sparked, which sparked the war in gaza. priscilla alvarez is in washington for us and nic robertson in jerusalem. priscilla, you first, how is the us preparing for this potential attack that were being warned about? >> well, the us and the israeli government is working around the clock to try to get in position ahead of any potential attack by iran. but both see it as inevitable. now they don't know how it would be carried out or when, but they're preparing for all possible scenarios of of an attack potentially in israel now, again, this was a major point of discussion between the president, joe biden and israeli prime minister benjamin netanyahu in their phone call this week. and of course it stems from that israeli airstrike that you were just mentioning that hit an embassy in damascus. now, the idf says that intelligence shows that that was it's not indeed a consulate, but it was an
9:03 am
escalation all the same. and that is really the fear here is that this would continue to escalate and pool. in other countries into a regional conflict, which is something that the white house has been trying to avoid. now, the united states informed iran that it was not involved in this this is really airstrike nor did it know of it in advance. but the big concern here is that there would be an attack by a ram are on israel by iran, it strike, which again, could could incite eight regional conflict which the biden white house has repeatedly tried to avoid. but in the moment what we know is that the us and the israeli government are tracking this very closely and monitoring all of these developments and trying to get in position should there be an attack by iran? >> all right, thanks so much up, priscilla. all right. let's turn now to nic robertson and jerusalem, nic the erez crossing into gaza is expected to open tomorrow to bring in much needed aid. how
9:04 am
much of an impact might that make? >> it's a very needed impact it's not clear how much of an impact it will have because it's not clear yet how many trucks will be allowed to go in, how regularly there'll be allowed to go in. and what there'll be able to reach when they do get in there so those are all the questions what's being watched? of course, very, very carefully is what the israeli government does to make good on its promise to public promise and the comments the president president, under the pressure of president biden how well they make good on that promise and the the border crossing and we were there today is a shell of what it once was. it was a place that hamas attacked on october 7. it shot up the passenger terminal because predominantly this was for foot passengers, not for heavy cargo traffic that typically crosses through the rafah crossing in the south and the kerem shalom crossing in
9:05 am
the south into gaza so this crossing itself is not one that's constructed for a big heavy flows of aid to go through. but of course, can be used for that what we know about the rows on the other side of the border inside of gaza, is that some of them? a very heavily damaged, that they've been hit by a missiles and bombs. the tarmac blown out on the roof. but i think what strike us, our team has we were right along the border there very closely erez crossing today's effect that you can still hear heavy machine gunfire and the sound of heavy x now, of course, other aid convoys have been able to get through, through into areas within, within gaza and deliver aid despite the fact the war is going on. but it's clear in and around the arrows crossing itself in a way that we haven't heard so close to other crossings there is still some persistent gunfire so that is going to be another
9:06 am
difficulty for the aid delivery to be able to get through and at the moment, we don't have any details from israeli officials about how many trucks there planning to let through, what's going to be on the trucks where the trucks have come from, where the trucks are going to be inspected because of course that's something israel do before aid is allowed in. but the nice it is massive. of course, the un says people in northern gaza, and the most vulnerable for food at the moment, many of them are starving >> yeah, we know indeed that aid cannot get there soon enough. we've heard it from all sides nic robertson for scylla alvarez. thanks to both of you. appreciate it. >> all right. let's zero. and again, back to the possible threats the us or possibly israel by iran biden ministration officials are warning that it is possible. so bob baer is with us now. bob with this warning coming from biden administration officials that it is possible. how does the us or even israel brace
9:07 am
itself? >> well fred, what they'd like to know is what is the planning where, where is the ran get ahead. is it going to hit through proxies or use its own forces? remember when a dispute with saudi arabia had hit the oil facilities at a-b cake with a drone it sounds to me, i would guess that iran is going to hit from lebanon. it's got a basis there all along the border using his ball of proxies. they've got missiles in caves. they can be pulled out, fired they can swarm israeli air defenses. they can hit haifa, they can hit tel aviv >> and also, i >> would suspect that a ran is going to hit israel rather than the united states simply because there's a possibility to divide washington and tel aviv, that relations are terrible at this point. and if it looks like israel is starting world war three in the middle east, a may calculate
9:08 am
that it can separate the united states from israel. i don't think it well, but this is the kind of planning the tehran is going through right now. >> do you feel like it's possible that this would be immediate >> i think the intelligence that cnn has picked up, that it's going to be next week, it's probably a good idea the cia national security agency can see preparations for strikes on the ground, either overhead or chatter and if they say it's going to come next week is a good chance it will. >> and do you feel like this is indirect response to what happened earlier in the week or do you believe? it instead coincides with more of a six month marking of when this conflict began, october 7 >> fret. i think it's what we have to look at is the war in gaza. it's got terrible for israel. they haven't been able to to get to the command of
9:09 am
hamas. lot of civilian casualties. fred, so that means there's a huge amount of pressure on tehran from the population, from the muslims around the world. and they feel that they want to have a voice in the future of the middle east. they're going to have to retaliate against israel and the sooner they do it in their minds, the more effective it will be >> the us and iran doesn't have diplomatic relations. >> do >> you believe there would be a third party country that would have to be involved here or do you see that? this is an instance in which the us has to have some sort of outreach to iran being messages to tehran through the swiss saying, hey, let's not >> stop, are a regional war. you will pay for it. don't drag us in just don't do it where we're doing our best to
9:10 am
control things in gaza and don't interrupt this now, whether the us rate the weather, the iranians will listen or not. i can't tell you, but i guarantee you washington is sending a lot of back channel messages to tehran >> all right, former cia officer bob baer. thanks so much. >> all right. still to come. >> former >> president donald trump, is headlining a high-dollar fundraiser tonight, while the biden campaign is announcing its own major cash hall and ramping up spending in key battleground states, the very latest on the presidential race after a quick break if you work in spaceflight, this is the >> worst possible thing i can ever help >> dad died doing what he loved him shuttle columbia the final flight premiers tomorrow at nine and see it was wet amd, i worry i'm not only losing my

right to your door. precisely portion for your dog's needs >> it's an idea time has come >> i'm arlette saenz at the white house, and this is cnn >> all right. former president donald trump is headlining a big dollar fundraiser tonight as he works to build up his campaign war chest. a source familiar with the details says the event in palm beach, florida as already raised $43 million in contributions cnn's fredreka schouten is here with more on this. fredricka. great to see, so all right, so what more do we know about tonight's event? >> well, of his at the private home of a supporter of donald trump's in palm beach, florida. it's a hedge fund billionaire john paulson, about 100 people are expected to attend and they're really paying a big price to be there. the starting admission, if you will, is $250,000, but folks
9:16 am
who are listed as chairman of the event, who give the top of mount are each giving 824,000 per person. wow, now they could raise those big numbers in part because it is a joint fundraiser with the republican national committee and a bunch of state party committees. and so you ask it's one billionaire to write a big check and then that money is distributed amount dozens of committees were contrasting. yeah. >> okay. >> so then >> i tonight's fundraiser also comes after president biden's campaign announced a huge fundraising haul for the month of march what more is the biden campaign saying about where they are in? their war chest. >> well, they raised $90 million in march was a huge number. and they have a war chest of about 100 million cash on hand. that is about 100 million more than team trump as on hand. so they are celebrating, i mean, frankly,
9:17 am
fundraising has been one of the bright spots for the biden campaign they raised more than 26 million at a fundraiser that included former presidents clinton and obama earlier, will late last month and he's been dealing with really low approval ratings, but he is able to make the case. his team argues that he succeeded in his first term and should be reelected. they're talking about opening 100 offices and battleground states. and they've just launched a third pretty million dollar ad buy targeting black latino, and asian voters and folks who supported nikki haley in the primary trying to persuade them to come to their side. fredricka. all right. there's a lot there. all right. fredreka schouten. great to see you. thanks so much. for more. now let's bring in political reporter for a semaphore academia gaba, and also cnn political analyst and white house reporter for the associated press, son min kim.
9:18 am
>> good to see you both. all right. so cadena you first. i mean, when you look at the cash on hand for these campaigns you biden has a sizable lead there. you just heard fredricka, they are talking about almost 100 a million more than trump. so it's a very interesting contrast because as fredricka just underscored biden has very, or has low approval rating numbers. but then in contrast, has brought in a whole lot of money. so help, help us understand how the biden campaign is seeing this >> well, like she pointed out, i think they're very happy about it. fundraising has been a bright spot for the biden administration. and i think they've been very disciplined about it raising 90 million basically it compared to trump's 93 million on hand is a considerable hall. i think you'll see both of them. both campaigns start to ramp up. that says what the trump campaign has been touting for the last couple of days ahead
9:19 am
of this fundraiser that he's gonna have really targeting on that 25 million and that biden raising that he's going to tell donors he's going to double that, i think will this will be the season or the era of campaign galas. and i think you'll see both campaigns start to ramp up here >> and sung-min, i mean, what's all this money for mean, it doesn't make a gigantic difference because we saw trump wins in in 2016 will spending hundreds of millions of dollars less than hillary clinton. so why so much money needed now to make a difference? or do you right? right. i mean, democratic republicans have told me that obviously the normal political rules can off and go out the window when it comes i've said tuttle trump, but if you talk to back biden campaign officials, they point out that that money allows them to make that contrast with donald trump earlier. and faster in these key battleground states, they know they see, they see the
9:20 am
president's approval ratings. they see the head-to-head polls like the rest of us, but they feel that once they really the drill it into the heads of voters, what biden would do in a second term in office, and what donald trump would do in a second term in office that they will have, they will win the argument there at the end of the day and they need that money to make that argument, whether it's on the tv airwaves like the $30,000,000,000 ad campaign the campaign is in the middle of right now or opening these battleground offices. so you have volunteers and workers go out, talk to voters, be able to hand out yard signs, talk to people about the difference between joe biden and donald trump. they feel like that's those are the metrics. so those are the statistics that will matter at the end of the day so could how do you say that the biden campaign will take advantage of this disparity in their favor in terms of numbers, because the >> president has the bully pulpit, perhaps there's less of a need for the kind of campaign ads that the former president might need. but is that how
9:21 am
we're going to see some of this money distributed? >> i think yeah, i think there's a clear difference about like the campaign is about to announce battleground officials who's going to take that on the trump campaign hasn't talked about that yet. i'll also point out that the trump campaign hasn't addressed how they're going to target black in latino voters, which they happen to be gaining on. but also what is the strategy around keeping those people are targeting that group to make sure that they're coming out for trump in november. i think we need to see some of that and i think they understand they're a little behind that. >> sung menn let's talk about this. no labels party ending its effort to field a third party ticket. i mean, saying it was unable to find a candidate who had a real credible path to win. so what does this mean for the race? >> well, it needs that a lot of
9:22 am
the concerns that democrats had about a potential third candidate siphoning votes away from joe biden is lessened a little bit like you've mentioned, no labels was very well financed. >> they had >> recruited and corded potential candidates for months. you're talking about a center trust west virginia democratic senator joe manchin chris christie, the former new jersey governor, who ran in the republican nomination read, ran for the republican nomination earlier, earlier in this primary cycle, and everyone basically declined their overtures. and i think that signals to a lot of this. some of sense among people who could have potentially run that had having that x factor, having that third candidate could really throw the race and favor of donald trump. now democrats are still watching over, looking over their shoulders at robert, robert f. kennedy jr. certainly who is starting to get on the ballot in some states, and they have a robust operation to really tear him down at the democratic national committee has brought on
9:23 am
operatives to do so. and i think that does point to the potent threat that democrats, democrats recognize that a third legitimate candidate in this race can pose to joebiden >> yeah. and good dhea even before the no labels announcement, democratic aligned groups that already been focusing, i guess, more a little bit more strongly on robert f. kennedy jr. so how might this make a difference? >> yeah, i think it's important to point out that they are they see a third-party candidate as a threat and rfk is no different. you still have some of the democratic align associations picketing his announcement for vice president. you also saw those mobile trucks circling some of his speech just and rallies. they're taking this very seriously, especially at a time when you know, there's some criticism around joe biden whether, you know how he's dealing with events in the middle east or people who have
9:24 am
problems with how old it is. i think they're taking it very seriously in are probably right to do so all right we'll. leave it there for now. could diego bus sung-min kim great to see you both, ladies. thank you >> i still to come the countdown is on for the epic total solar eclipse that will cross the skies of north america on monday. a look at how some across the path of totality or preparing and what the weather just might be like tomorrow. new >> interviews with a returned israeli hostages. >> what is the meaning of being? hostage? reasonable certainty, >> and a flight for the release of those still in captivity. the whole story with anderson cooper tomorrow at eight on cnn >> we know you care but if this is all too real for you and your loved ones, make the call because we care to home instead

to be there. it says it might be cloudy on monday. it's gorgeous, right now, so we're gonna do our our sundance and make sure that it's sunny on monday. oh, good. yeah. we need to do this sunday as well. we know it's already electric because of the women's and their basketball plan last night with nc doublet. so it's going to continue. >> there's gonna be a >> lot of good luck and good good fortune coming your way there in cleveland. i just know it >> miguel margaret role. yeah >> okay. sounds good. thank you. well, let's find find out whether the forecast is going to be imperfect alignment with the expectations there in cleveland and beyond elisa raffa is with us now because this is going to be a huge event, not just for cleveland, but along the whole path. >> of where i >> guess geographically the best places to be >> yeah. and are people getting ready for this? and it's like not the day you want to see a storm develop and brings him strong thunderstorms, but that's kind of where we're at
9:33 am
a job. yeah, as we go into monday. yeah. so we've got a storm developing as we go into monday mostly in the central plains. and this is the updated severe risk for it's a level two out of five with damaging winds and very large hail possible. now, what are these storms will fire up in the south after the totality. but look at all the cities that are just along that path. so you can see the showers really start going into sunday. and then if you're traveling sunday night, you're dealing with some of that rain for areas like cleveland in indianapolis and the front stalls with some of those showers right near that path of totality by monday. so that's where you've got some the clouds from texas down into missouri. looks like we'll find some more clearing up in the ohio valley and going into new england. so an hourly forecast for a place like dallas, you can see you've got some of those mostly cloudy skies, but you'll be able to definitely see that darkness you might not be able to see the corona or the crescent of the eclipse coming in, but with some of those clouds, but you'll get the darkness for sure. looks like some more sunshine in a place like
9:34 am
indianapolis when you hit that totality at about 3:00. so you get some of them even. are all right. >> well, that's the ominous feel that everybody but he wanted even though it's just gonna be for four months, four minutes, but it may feel like, you know four hours because it's such an event. all right. so we know people are descending on a variety of places. if they can't get their glasses, then what are these props you have here? these are things like do it yourself at home. >> things that you've got at home for sure. and i was able to talk to an expert who is an mit engineer and she as a children's hose, emily's wonder, wonder lab, and emily collins ali and she's got some really cool tips for your ticket lesson >> okay. >> everybody is so excited and they may have so many questions and they want to make sure that their kids are able to enjoy it and they just want to know exactly what to do. so i have some prompts. this is what i'm bringing to the eclipse. i'm going to dallas and i'm gonna be bringing a few things because i have a daughter who's four and a son who's to
9:35 am
my daughter will be wearing solar eclipse glasses and i'm going to teach your solar safety on how to watch the sun. we have solar eclipse glasses for my husband and i, for my son. i'm bringing a colander. i just got this off amazon and this will act like a pinhole projector that will cast the shadow, the image inch of the solar eclipse, while the moon is crossing across the surface of the sun. and we see that crescent solar shape, this will cast that image on the ground. so i don't really want him looking up at the sun because the solar damage of eyes is just, it's very risky for liberalize and so i will going to have him look at this and look at the grounds and see the shapes of it on the ground and then bringing a disco ball because i've seen some really great tiktoks of people who had disco balls in their room during the 2017 solar eclipse. and they noticed that this cast the shadow of the solar eclipse all along their walls until the dozens and dozens of crescent
9:36 am
shapes all along their walls. and it just looked so beautiful. i'm going to be bringing this as well >> we got inventive ideas. >> yeah, one more for you. if you've got like a cereal box or a snack bars, you can make your own viewer. there's some white paper in here that will kind of like are and the sunlight goes into this pinhole here and then you can get the reflection, the shadow happen inside of the box with the sun behind you all right, so the idea is the sun is two my back, so i'm not staring at it. and this is a safe way to see the shadow as it comes through, reflects through here. >> okay. i get it now i'm glad you demonstrate i was looking i'm like, oh, know. okay. i get it now. and i understand the calendar, so it's really an issue of the sun emitting light through the colander and then seeing the shadow, the shadow on the ground yeah. exactly. i have those things at home. i might be doing that some ideas for you some time and i'm really not that crafty, but this, i think i can handle that. >> all right, very fun. we're looking forward to it. and of course are enormous coverage is on monday, so get ready it
9:37 am

>> all right. spring break is here and many drivers are having to factor high gas its prices into their travel plans after bottoming out in january at over three bucks a gallon and the national average now stands more than $0.50 higher according to aaa. and that includes a climate $0.20 over the past month to 3505 per gallon. so what's behind the surge? and how high could they get before memorial day? i want to bring in now, patrick to han to discuss head of petroleum analysis with gas buddy patrick great to see you. >> what's going on now? why are gas prices jumping? >> all this is someone uncomfortable but familiar pinch that we generally see every spring. >> we saw >> the rise in prices really start earlier this year. this is happening really for three main factors refinery maintenance happens in late winter, early spring ahead of the start of the summer driving season. and as such, refineries aren't producing as much gasoline lean during this window. demand for gasoline is
9:43 am
going up. americans are getting out more and more. as you mentioned, spring break travel. the club's a lot of travel happening at the same time. we're also making the switch over to more expensive blends of summer gasoline mandated by the epa. so that's usually what leads to prices going up every spring. >> okay. so with all that, yeah, spring break traveling to see the eclipse, any advice on where the gas the gas is either most or least expensive right now >> yeah, you can see the map behind me, the west coast tends to see the highest prices. in fact, california's back over an average of $5 a gallon for the first time since last october. if you want the lowest price gasoline had to the gulf coast, there is like texas, louisiana, mississippi generally have prices that are still close to $3 in fact, color corrado, the nation's cheapest gasoline this morning at about 3:03 a gallon. so there are still some sub $3 prices. but those will probably disappear as we get closer to the start of summer. >> okay, so let's talk about
9:44 am
summer. i mean you you have some encouragement for people who do want to take their road trips i'm hopeful that this summer will be similar to last year. i'm not expecting the national average to hit the $4 a gallon mark. although the price of oil is now at its highest level since october. so watch what happens in the middle east. that's certainly couldn't increase our odds of potentially seeing $104 a gallon average this summer. but i think we're going to stop short of that. for now. keep in mind hurricane season as well, that could play a role in the prices later this summer. but all in all, it's going to be a very similar year to last year where gas prices for most of the summer are probably in the mid to upper $3 a gallon range. >> all right. i happy traveling all >> patrick, dianne. thank you so much. >> thanks. >> all right. did you stay up late last night watching the game? i tried caitlin clark. well, she's heading back to the national title game. iowa narrow billie advance to the women's ncw, a tournament championship game after the reps made with some say is a
