you very much for joining us. and to our viewers, thank you very much for watching. i'm wolf blitzer in "the situation room." follow me on twitter and on instagram. you can always tweet the show. erin burnett "outfront" starts right now. "outfront" next, republican senators admitting the quiet part out loud, saying they will vote against a bipartisan commission because it's not good for their party's political campaigns in the midterms. the former daughter-in-law of alan weissleberg. why she's now cooperating with prosecutors, and why she thinks alan weissleberg will flip on trump. why did investigators seize 18 electronic devices from rudy giuliani's home and office? 18? let's go "outfront."

good evening. i'm erin burnett. "outfront" tonight, saying the quiet part out loud. senate republicans making it clear why they plan to object to the bill to create a bipartisan commission to investigate the capitol riot. with the filibuster planned as soon as next week. why? well, because they don't want an investigation into the biggest act of domestic terror on the capitol to get in the way of their c their campaign messages. >> they don't want it to be the focus in the next election. >> anything that gets us rehashing the 2020 election is a day lost of drawing a contrast between us and the democrats left wing agenda. >> so they say it. republicans want to focus on getting the majority back in 2022. they think trump could be their ticket to winning those majorities back. and getting to the bottom of the riots obviously works against that goal. which might explain why mitch mcconnell threw his political weight against the commission,

despite delivering that blistering takedown of former president trump after trump's impeachment. >> former president trump's actions preceded the riot were a disgraceful, disgraceful dereliction of duty. i've made the decision to oppose the house democrat's slanted and unbalanced proposal for another commission to study the events of january 6. >> of course, i pointed out before, it's not slamted or imbalanced. it's equal democrats and republicans on the commission, equal subpoena power. it met all of kevin mccarthy's demanding. the commission was negotiated between a democrat and republican together. but to the gop right now, this is about winning elections, and they think they need president trump, who lost the election in order to win theirs. and president trump is now making it clear he's taking names, lashing out against the 35 republicans who voted in favor of the january 6 commission.

trump writing, 35 wayward republicans. they just can't help themselves. sometimes there are consequences to being ineffecttive and weak. the voters understand. now, those 35 republicans one would assume knew they would be at the receiving end of trump's ire. but they still voted for the truth over trump. the same cannot be said over mitch mcconnell and his decision to vote over the commission. it's opened the door for other republicans to vote against it as well, making it a simply it will not pass. that means democrats may have to go it alone. an option is to have a select committee. she can accomplish that with a simple house majority vote. but it's important to vote that kevin mccarthy is already objecting to that idea for this reason. >> i don't think a select committee is the proper way to go. you've got the senate who did a bipartisan one. >> okay. so let's just go through this. he doesn't want a select

committee to investigate riots in which americans were left dead. yet he was all for this when it came to investigating the 2012 attack in benghazi in which four americans were dead. this is what mccarthy said was the purpose of the select committee on benghazi. >> this benghazi committee was only created for one purpose, to find the truth on behalf of the families for the four dead americans. >> he wanted the truth on behalf of the families of those who died. four people died in benghazi. families broken forever. five people died in the january 6 with riots. families broken forever. i don't know how you look at this. some americans' lives matter more than others to mccarthy. he does not want to investigate those american lives lost on january 6. the other reason is that a select committee is not needed because there's a senate investigation going on. mccarthy was fine doing that select committee in benghazi

while seven other investigations were going on. eight walls plenty, he was good with eight. still wanted that select committee. there they are on your screen. benghazi deserved a thorough investigation, but it's not just mccarthy twisting himself into a pretzel to please trump and shut down more investigations. take congressman craig pence, the former vice president's brother, he said i think the whole thing is to impeach donald trump again. it's a dog and pony show. a dog and pony show? which, you know, had just a couple things gone differently would have resulted in his brother being dead. [ crowd chanting ] >> bring out pence! >> but his brother says it's

just a dog and pony show. manu, it is looking less likely that this bill is going anywhere in the senate. so given what we're laying out here about the concept of a select committee, what do democrats do next? >> reporter: that is one of the options. the moment they're still holding out hope nothing will change but no indication that will happen in the senate. the republicans are making arguments about the plil that are addressed by the bill or that can be addressed by minor changes, including their argument that it's duplicative. and saying concerns about the way the democratic appointed commissioner could name staff. that could be addressed in a minor way. and also there's some concerns that the republicans have voiced of their ongoing investigations in the united states senate, detailing what happened on

january 6. but i talked to the republican who was in charge of helping draft that report, ralph portman. he indicated to me that report is going to focus on capital security itself. the response on that day, and not on what happened in the run-up to january 6, which, of course, includes what donald trump did, the organizing of the rally, and the republicans who may have been involved here. so that really gets it to the point here, why republicans are pushing back, why they're trying to kill this commission, because an investigation could be broad enough that it will look into what president trump did and what the party did and provide a lot of uncomfortable realities and keep the issue in the headlines through the end of the year into next year and right as they bat toll take back control of the house and senate. the republicans are openly acknowledging that, saying there are investigations, but it's time to move on and focus on the domestic agenda. >> manu, thank you very much. i want to go now to congressman jerry conley, who sits on the

house oversight committee. i appreciate your time. given wherer now, given what we're seeing on the senate side, each richard burr who voted to convict president trump at his impeachment trial is not in favor of this commission. do you think the commission bill has any chance in the senate? >> well, given the direction from mitch mcconnell and given what senator burr just did, i would say the chances of success are diminishing. i don't think they're impossible. but finding men and women of good conscious that want to get to the bottom of the tragedy of january 6 that shook america to its core, you know, i think is an essential task. my hope is there will be enough republicans still who have the intestinal fortitude to address

that. >> today, leader kevin mccarthy did say he would be willing to testify about his call with trump. we know that call that happened during the riots when the republicans who talked to mccarthy said that trump said it was antifa and all these things and kevin mccarthy was like, this is not true. he said he would be willing to testify about that call in front of a commission that he voted against having. here's the exchange. >> would you be willing to testify about your conversation with donald trump on january 6 if you were asked by an outside commission -- >> sure. next question. >> sure. well, that's easy to say. he knows there isn't going to be a commission, unless there's a miracle. so do you think he would test fie before a select committee investigating as well, given that pelosi can get that set up without republican votes? >> you know, i think it is a throwaway line, and i think he always reserves the right to change his mind. however radically.

i have to say, i think his behavior would allow jellyfish to think they're vertebrates. this is the most debrpraved behavior i've ever seen from a member of the united states congress. this is about an incredible event, only the second time the capitol fell to an armed mob, you know, in our history. and we have to get to the bottom of that so it never happens again. people were harmed, people died. and the fact that we would put politics ahead of all of that is a sorted and depraved chapter for the republican party, frankly. >> he supported a select

committee on benghazi to find the truth, he said, on behalf of the families for the four dead americans. i did a documentary on benghazi. i agree that that needed every investigation it got. he supported that select committee in addition to seven other concurrent investigations. now she says we don't need to have a commission because the senate is looking to get something. all kinds of reasons to say that such a thing is not necessary. four dead americans in benghazi. five dead americans on january 6. how do you interpret what kevin mccarthy said? >> i say it's, as i said, i think it's depraved behavior. i think it is situational ethics on steroids. so, yeah, truth matters today, but it may not matter tomorrow if it's politically inconvenient. that is no way to have accountability and oversight and to govern with integrity. the idea that he is hunkering

after the speaker of the house, sends shivers down by spine, given the behavior we witnessed, and the utter lack of any, you know, moral background of kevin mccarthy. it is a shameful moment. >> all right, thank you -- >> from kevin mccarthy, frankly. >> thank you very much, congressman conley. >> my pleasure. thank you. next, we have disdisturbing new video of a black man who was cuffed and tasered by police. the family says they were told he died in a car accident. trump's money man at the center of two criminal probes related to trump org. what does she know? jennifer weissleberg is my guest. israel and hamas reach an agreement to end the fighting, but will the truce stand? we are live in jerusalem tonight.

tonight, a family says they were told that their loved one, ronald green, died after crashing into a tree. and now shocking new body camera video shows he was tased, kicked, and dragged face down by troopers in louisiana. that video, which i will warn you is tough to watch, with you held under wraps for more than two years. only coming to light now because

it was leaked to the associated press. >> reporter: the video seen by the public for the first time in two years since the deadly encounter between ronald green and louisiana state police officers. >> i'm scared. >> reporter: after a high speed chase led to a confrontation in may of 2019, green's family says the police told them the 49-year-old died in a car crash. state police said he was taken into custody after resisting arrest. green became unresponsive shortly after, and died on his way to the hospital. new video reveals a more disturbing confrontation. and body cam video obtained by the associated press. troopers can be seen punching green after appearing to drag him out of his vehicle. >> taser, taser, taser. >> reporter: troopers tased green multiple times as they

attempt to handcuff them. another appears to kick green. the associated press released three segments of the video, which it says is 46 minutes long. only two of the video clips have audio. cnn has never reviewed or obtained the original video, and it's unclear what occurred before or in between the video clips. the 2019 state police report says officers attempted to pull green over for unspecified traffic violation. green's mother says two officers wouldn't tell her why law enforcement was chasing green. she says the lack of transparency on fbehalf of authorities has been painful. >> i'm so pissed. but we're going to get results. >> reporter: at no time on the video can troopers be seen trying to render medical aid to green who, according to the associated press, was face down and moaning for more than nine

minutes. two of the officers continue to be employed by the department. both were reprimanded for their actions that night. one faced a 50-hour suspension for manipulating their body camera equipment. the other placed on administrative leave for an unrelated accident. a third died in a single car crash accident last year. for now, green's mother continues to fight for her son. >> they beat him with the purpose of letting him just die. >> reporter: erin, when you think about this video, there's a point in it where it looks like an officer puts their foot on his back when he's trying to put over. maybe when he's trying to get a breath. there's so many questions like this. we would like to talk to law enforcement. they did put out a statement saying the video release was premature. but if you think about this, you're talking about the two-year anniversary is just around this time. so still a lot of questions, especially for that family. when i talked to the family attorney yesterday, he was say thing is one of the worst videos you have ever seen.

you can understand why this family supset and looking for answers. >> thank you very much. you know, you mentioned lee merit. he is with me now, the family eastern along with darnell harden, ronald green's sister. i want to say i'm so sorry for the loss of your brother and sorry this is coming out now. you've been grieving and now you have to see all this. and learn about things that you did not know happened. your family was told your brother died after crashing into a tree, and now you see this. was there any point prior to this video suddenly coming out that you thought that that didn't add up? >> yes. we got a -- there was a facebook post shared by one of the neighbors in farmerville, louisiana. she stated that the surveillance cameras from her home captured everything. and she said no one deserves to die, you know, in the hands of

the police officers. so she -- it wasn't until she posted that on facebook, that's when we started to dig a little bit deeper. >> i mean, dinelle, what is your reaction when you saw this video for the first time of your brother? >> it's unbelievable. it's unbelievable to see that governor edwards has not taken any action on this. i mean, it's clear that they murdered my brother. it's clear. there was no resisting. my brother should still be alive. she should still be here today. >> this case is heartbreaking for dinelle, her family, shocking for anyone. we hear -- i know we don't see

much, right? we see this part of it, we don't see the before or after. i know you have questions. the one thing we do see, green says "i'm scared, i'm your brother" to the police. they tase him. they drag him by his feet, kick him and one trooper responds as green is on the ground, i'm sorry to do this, dinelle but -- >> i hope this guy ain't got [ bleep ] aids. i've got blood all over me. >> lee, it took two years for this video to come out. >> you're listening to the louisiana state police's response to this video now being out in the public, and their only concern is the so-called integrity of their investigation. their investigation is over. it took a year for the investigation to begin, and that

was only after the family began to question the lie that was told to them, that their brother died in a car accident. but they have no vested interest in doing justice, in holding police officers accountable, and they should be embarrassed. this is a national embarrassment, that these officers were so ruthless and violent, and unaccountable. but their only concern to date seems to be who leaked the video. >> dinelle, the investigation that lee refers to that they did, one officer was suspended for 50 hours, another is on administrative leave, actually for a separate case involving use of force on a black man that happened after your brother's death. that's how all this has gone from here. what do you think is the right thing to happen now, dinelle? >> they need to do what's right. and sometimes, you know, doing

what's right just -- they need to do what's right, and give us justice, give us the transparency that we deserve. they need to do what's right. we've gone way too long, and now is the time. governor edwards, jeff landry, who is the attorney general, they have been protecting their men on duty. and it's clear that they're not out there protecting and serving the community in ways that they should. >> lee, is there anything -- i mean, they're worried about who leaked the video and they're saying only, you know, you're only seeing this moment, you're not seeing before the horrific abuse, and you're not seeing after. is there any before or any after that would change what happened here? >> there's nothing that is going to be shown, and we watched the video in its entirety. there is a pursuit.

ronald green did not pull over immediately. once he did finally pull over, he surrendered, he said i'm sorry, i'm scared. you'll find that he said that over a dozen times. i'm sorry, i'm scared. as they continued to beat him. so what must have happened next, is jeff landry needs to appoint a special community. the union parish president deferred to the federal authorities. we learned from the derek chauvin trial that there can be both a state and a federal trial. we learned that in ahmaud arbery's case. so this does not absolve the state of louisiana. >> a dozen times, "i'm scared, i'm your brother." dinelle, your 3wr09er was battling cancer, had just entered remission shortly before his death. on the night of his death, i understand that he was traveling

to florida from louisiana to reunite with his wife. can you tell us more about him? can you sort of bring him to life for us? >> my brother, he was like my hero. he was brave. he showed me over the years that he can do anything. you know, anything that he set his mind to, including beating cancer. my brother, he stopped doing chemotherapy. that's how strong he was. that's how brave he was. and to see him in a helpless, a helpless condition where he couldn't even help himself, that really tears me apart. i can't believe that i couldn't be there for him. you know, my brother, he couldn't call my mom, guess what? he would always call me.

he always knew that i would be there for him. >> well, you're here for him now. and i know it doesn't come anything close to what you want, but it can make a difference. dinelle, i thank you. and again, i'm so sorry. >> i just can't believe we've been ignored all this time, and no action has been taken. there should be arrests made, and it's like we've just been ignored. >> well, no longer. and i appreciate you and lee. thank you very much as well for being here. >> thank you so much for covering this. next, the cfo of the trump organization is at the ecenter f two criminal investigations. and his former daughter-in-law has turned over a giant box of

documents to prosecutors. what's in there? she's next. new details about what federal investigators seized after they raided rudy giuliani's home and office. why do horses listen to us? they're much bigger than we are. eh, we're smarter though. we put a man on the moon. i don't see any horses on the moon. it would be cool to ride a horse on the moon, though. i don't hydrate like everyone else. because i'm not everyone else. they drink what they're told to drink. i drink what helps me rehydrate and recover: pedialyte® sport. because it works. and so do i... ♪ ♪ hydration beyond the hype. ♪ ♪ a capsule a day hydration beyond the hype. visibly fades the dark spots away. new neutrogena® rapid tone repair 20 percent pure vitamin c. a serum so powerful

'cause we are.

tonight, investigators zero in on a trump organization executive. chief financial officer allen weisselberg, the most influential person outside the family, and the top echelon of trump org, is the focus of two criminal probes. weisselberg has been in the trump orbit for nearly 50 years. he started out as an accountant for donald trump's father, fred, before reaching the highest levels of the trump businesses. managing the trump organization with donald trump's sons after trump became president. one person now cooperating with the investigation into weisselberg and the trump organization is on your screen there. allen weisselberg's former daughter-in-law, jennifer, who was married to weisselberg's son barry for 14 years. her lawyer says she has 25 years

of financial records. investigators are scrutinizing several things, including tuition payments to jennifer's children to a $54,000 a year private school. jennifer weisselberg said she believe trump paid the tuition for one child, and allen weisselberg for the other. "outfront" now, jennifer weisselberg. i appreciate your time. thank you for talking with me. and i know we spoke earlier and you were telling me about these tuition payments. i wanted to start there. because i know you had told me trump was willing to pay tuition for this school, not others, just this school. and i know it's a crucial question of what records do you have of trump himself and allen weisselberg making those tuition payments for your kids? >> i have records of donald trump paying for one of my children's tuition at her private school, and specifically

saying in terms of control that they couldn't go to another. it looks like it was compensation, tax benefits to -- for the trump organization or for donald trump himself. and it's basically all about tax strategies. >> so that's the crucial question and you're starting to explain it there. what potential crimes do you understand, jennifer, at this point that they're focused on with the tuition payments as an example? >> the compensation and gift taxes revealed by myself the day before the election on november 2 of 2020 have been proven to be true. compensation and gift taxes for the organization, for donald trump himself, and for all the employees, specifically the trump family, and the weisselberg family, are -- there's nothing legal going on there, erin. the gift taxes and compensation

are -- have been proven to be illegal and the d.a. is working hard, and i believe has -- seen those numbers and is pursuing charges as such. >> so i want to show that photo again of you and that giant box of documents. some of the documents that you're about to turn over to prosecutors. i know from our conversation that is only about a third of what you have, that there's a lot more to come, a lot more digitally. what else can you tell me prosecutors are looking for or perhaps have already found in your cooperation? >> a lot of the documents have been forwarded to the d.a. and a.g.'s investigation electronically. so that's just part of what i was able to contribute as per my subpoenas. i followed the law and i contributed and done my due

diligence to provide what i was authorized to do in the su subpoena. that's just the tip of the iceberg. as far as i'm concerned, the next thing to do is to discuss weisselberg and his role in the trump organization, and how the cash that flowed in from that and the expenses are not transparent, and are -- they're not true. >> what would be the right word to use? these are cash businesses. the carousel, cash businesses, and do you have proof that that cash was not reported, was not handled appropriately? >> well, i mean, i have proof that weisselberg is taking nonprofit checks from events that were done. he was depositing them into his own bank accounts. it looks like he's stealing from

the trump organization. whether it's that he's stealing in the -- in services that he's giving away or donations he's giving away, i don't believe that the trump organization knows, quite frankly, how much he was skimming and not being transparent on his taxes with what he was stealing. to be a liar, a cheater is a liar is a thief. as far as i'm concerned, there's been nothing legal going on in the past 21 years. >> nothing legal going on in the past 21 years, and you know, right, you know these people better than anyone from day one on your wedding. trump's been involved in your life. there you are with your ex-husband, barry, melania and donald. and now this investigation into the trump organization is criminal. so i ask you, as someone who knows well, with your father-in-law and your ex-father-in-law, your ex-husband, your

ex-brother-in-law, your exister in law, all working for trump organization, is there any distinction between donald trump and the trump organization? >> donald trump and the trump organization are one in the same. allen and donald may look different, but they are not different inside. there's no difference. the power that they have been -- they were handed by -- when he became president, i was there. i was sitting in the presidential box during the parade with ivanka and jared and vanessa and her children. i was at the red carpet that was rolled out for him to walk into the white house. it's palpable, the power is palable. i thought, this is so dangerous, i cannot believe they're giving this much power and control to someone that is doing it for

their own bepnefit. >> 28 years you've known allen weisselberg. you were 19 years old, you started dating barry, became with your husband. so you mentioned that day when you were in the front row, we have pictures of you at inauguration and you were there with the trump and weisselberg families. you said this walls a profound moment for you. why? >> it just felt dangerous. it's something that is hard to put into words. the amount of power given to a president, i just think it's irresponsible to give somebody self-serving and narcissistic that much power when it's inevitably to benefit themselves. and with the compensation and gift taxes i revealed the day before the election last year, i don't say anything that's not provable, and i wouldn't. the next phase in the d.a.'s investigation is going to be a really hard look, you know, and

that's to come. but i have to say, erin, there's nothing going on that is a witch hunt or a fishing expedition. that is not true. that is not true. they're working hard, as i am, to tell the truth, and to see justice prevail and to have accountability for their own actions. it's no one's fault but their own. they need to be accountable for what they have done. >> will allen weisselberg flip on trump? >> yes. >> wow, no hesitation at all with your answer there. and let me just ask you one more question, jennifer. i know we have talked about this as well. obviously it's hard to be candid about this. you know, this is a family that you spent 28 years with. a man you have children with, children you adore.

why -- so many close to trump, they fight and fight before they turn. you know, michael cohen, but he eventually did. why are you cooperating? >> because i think the truth matters, and it's become so much bigger. i'm not motivated by money, i'm not motivated by post judgment divorce situation that they started. when they start civil cases to cover up their own crimes. i have no motivation. i get nothing out of this, but i think the truth matters, and it's so horrifying to think that donald trump could be president again, knowing what i know. i'm not afraid to tell the truth, you know, and i respect the d.a.'s investigation. it is serious. and it continues to be finite.

numbers are finite, you know? they always are. and there needs to be accountability. >> jennifer, i appreciate your time. thank you very much for explaining all of this and sharing all of this. i know it isn't easy, because, you know, i know it's a hard decision. i know it's been your whole life and i know you have those children that you love so much. thank you so much. >> thank you, erin, for having me. i appreciate the respect to speak out on the truth and justice, because it matters. >> all right. i want everyone to know we reached out to allen weisselberg's legal team. they did not provide a comment. they declined our interview request for mr. weisselberg, a barry weisselberg would not be reached for comment. when contacted by cnn, a lawyer for the trump organization provided no comment.

tonight, we're learning more about what federal investigators took when they raided rudy giuliani's home and office. court documents reveal

investigators seized 18 electronic devices from giuliani, and multiple people who worked for him. giuliani had previously said investigators had taken seven or eight electronic devices of his. giuliani is being investigated for his dealings in ukraine, including whether he conducted illegal lobbying for ukrainian officials while he was pursuing an investigation into joe biden. so carol, what more can you tell us? that's a lot of electronic devices. >> reporter: yeah , it is. we learned that the feds seized 18 devices from rudy giuliani's home and office when they raided it earlier or last month. among those devices we just learned that 11 of them were from giuliani and have been returned, but several of them were pass protected, so they will have to see if they can unlock them. we also learned that some of these devices were taken from giuliani's office and from several -- at least more than

one employee, so we're learning that more devices have been obtained than we knew giuliani said it was several or eight. his lawyer said his assistant's laptop was taken. now there are more people who worked for giuliani whose materials were collected by the fbi. >> so what does this tell us, all of these extra devices, the documents that you're looking at, about the scope of the giuliani investigation? >> reporter: it's interesting. there's a new filing tonight where the prosecutors say this is still an ongoing grand jury investigation involving the activities that giuliani wals involved with, as well as another attorney. she had a search warrant served on her and her cell phone was taken by prosecutors. we learned that there was this other search of giuliani's i-cloud in 2019, less than a month after his associates were arrested. prosecutors said the material seized in this search warrant of giuliani's home overlaps in some

deal by the time period. that it did in 2019. so in the 18 months since this investigation has gone on since that initial search of giuliani's i-cloud account, this investigation is still covering that period of time. so it's focused and zoomed in on these activities in ukraine. >> kara, thank you very much. and next, 11 days of deadly fighting, and now there is a cease-fire between israel and hamas. we're live? jerusalem with the new details. and joe biden signing a new law to address the spike in hate crimes against asian-americans. sustenance for mountaineering expeditions and long journeys across the world! but most importantly? they give us something to eat when we drink beer. you'd never want leftover onion residue planters. a nut above. or any food residue on theany of your surfaces.o eat when we drink beer. but that's what you could be doing if you're cleaning with a used dishcloth, even after you've rinsed it. so, switch to a fresh sheet of bounty for a more hygienic clean.

it would be cool to ride a horse on the moon. breaking news, a cease fire is underway. the cease fire between israel and hamas, was set to go into

effect about 50 minutes ago, the two sides reaching a deal after eleven days of fighting. president biden touting the deal with his heart attacks which were actually his first extensive comments on the conflict since it started. >> i think the palestinians and israels equally deserve to live freely, with prosperity and democracy. my administration will continue our quiet relentless diplomacy toward that end. i believe we have a genuine opportunity to make progress. >> out front from jerusalem tonight. it has been just about 50 minutes since the cease fire was supposed to take effect 2:00 a.m. local time, so almost 3:00 where you are now. hadas, is it holding so far? >> reporter: 52 minutes so far into this cease fire, and it has been quiet. there was actually activity even in the minutes leading up to 2:00 a.m. here where there were red alert sirens going off in

southern israel even until just a few minutes before 2:00 a.m., but then 2:00 a.m. hit, and then we have experienced quiet. the cease fire was announced just a little bit before midnight local time. the israeli security cabinet, announcing that they had agreed to a mutual unconditional cease fire that was proposed by egypt. hamas confirming that they had agreed as well. pressure had been mounted on israel, especially for a few days coming from the americans and joe biden over the last few days really started mounting up the pressure to get israel to end its military campaign. israel saying it was targeting hamas, and islamic jihad targets throughout the gaza strip, especially the underground tunnel network, and rocket launchers, launched from ga za and israel. it targeted thousands of militant targets in gaza and civilians caught up on both sides of this, and the destruction and death on both sides has been significant. israel warning, though, in its announcement of the cease fire

that they stood ready to restart the military operations. if they find the situation on the ground changes. so what happens now. we have a cease fire, of course everyone will want to see if it's on hold, and what will happen if something does occur, but gaza will need to rebuild. they will need the lot of international aid and help. have we addressed the fundamental issue at hand. we have a cease fire now. will anything fundamentally change between hamas, and israel, that will lead to further peace or will we continue this tortured cycle of violence between israel and the militants in gaza, and perhaps more importantly, erin, is this tension that kind of started here in jerusalem and spread to gaza, this tension here between palestinians, between israelis, between arabs and jews, mixed communities, what's happening in the west bank between palestinians and israeli forces, that tension is still very raw, and it is a tinderbox that could easily be set to flame, very quickly, despite whatever cease

fir that may have been negotiated between hamas, and gaza. >> thank you very much. i appreciate it. live from jerusalem tonight, there on the ground. and next, president biden taking action to address the alarming spike of hate crimes against asian americans. if you have moderate to severe psoriasis, little things can become your big moment. that's why there's otezla. otezla is not a cream. it's a pill that treats plaque psoriasis differently. with otezla, 75% clearer skin is achievable. don't use if you're allergic to otezla.

over the next 10 years, comcast is committing $1 billion to reach 50 million low-income americans with the tools and resources they need to be ready for anything. i hope you're ready. 'cause we are. president biden today

signing an important antiasian hate crimes bill into law. >> too many asian americans have been waking up each morning this past year genuinely, genuinely fearing for their safety. just opening the door and walking down the street. >> according to one study, hate crimes against asians are up 164%, since the same time a year ago in america's major cities. basically what this law does is require the attorney general to work with state and local officials to make it easier to report these types of crimes, make it easier to report them, and yet the faces you see on the left side of your screen are the faces of 63 republicans who voted against the bill. why would they vote against it? there was actually only one republican senator who voted no, only one, it was senator josh hawley. he tweeted his big problem with the bill is that it turns the federal government into speech police, gives government sweeping authority to decide what counts as offensive speech and then monitor it, raises big free speech questions.

again, he was on a lonely island of one. does hawley want to protect the 19-year-old seen attacking an 84-year-old grandfather in san francisco. the man later died from his injuries. he was originally from thailand. or perhaps hawley thinks it's too sweeping to give the government authority to prevent this disturbing attack in new york. a 65-year-old asian woman being punched and kicked. why won't you say those kinds of things are okay, the rule of law looking at it. 63 republicans voted against doing more to counter the violent acts that you just saw. one senator, josh hawley, and his justification simply just don't add up.

thanks for watching it's time for ac 360 with anderson cooper. moments ago the united states secretary general said he welcomed the news. we'll have live reporting of what went into it. and new reporting only on cnn about the trump justice department targeting a cnn journalist, and we have new information about whether or not booster shots will be needed for people who got the covid vaccine. first we begin with republican lawmakers and their pursuit of herd immunity from the facts of january 6th. gop senators voicing objections to the bill the house sent them to set up a bipartisan 9/11 style commission to investigate. as for house republican leader kevin mccarthy who have gone so far as to lobby senators about the bill, he spoke out today, and because he's known to be about as hard to read a flashing neon sign, his answers to reporters are fascinating. for background, remember his republicans colleagues have been telling cnn he's
