>> announcer: don lemon ton, next on cnn. that's it for us tonight. i'll be back next week. don lemon tonight with don lemon starts right now. >> hello, laura coates how was your week. >> hello, don lemon. a good week. i tell you it's been a long week of so many things. i'm not certain what comes for the weekend with all the news. >> we have the super bowl and the pesky situation happening in

ukraine. for a linc time and with russia and ukraine i've been telling everyone, even the viewers and my team here i have a really bad feeling about ukraine. probably for maybe well over a month now. i had a really bad feeling about ukraine. >> oh, man. >> i don't know where this is going but injury it's escalate and far worse than we think. that's just what i -- the feeling i get. let's hope that that doesn't happen. >> i don't often say this but i desperately hope you're wrong don lemon and hope whatever magic eight ball you got i hope it's wrong. there is so much at stake. so much going on. especially in politics, the idea of another, you know, military presence enforced from the u.s. abroad going to have consequences. >> it's going to have consequences. i'm not sure america has the stomach for it, all americans. thank you, laura have a great weekend. >> hope you have time for good food on sunday. >> we ordered all the wings. ready. super bowl party, small group.

great. >> that's how he tells you america i'm not invited thanks, don lemon. small group. >> this is don lemon tonight. thank you for joining us. as you heard from the conversation laura and i were just having, the world on edge, really is. the warning couldn't be more urgent. americans in ukraine get out now. and the president won't send in troops to get you. >> we encourage all american citizens who remain in ukraine to departures immediately. we want to be crystal clear on this point. any american in ukraine should leave as soon as possible and in in any event in the next 24 to 48 hours. the president will not be putting the lives ever our men and women in uniform at risk by sending them into a war zone to rescue people who could have left now but close not to. >> that's the warning. get out now. and this tells you just how deadly the situation is.

and in the wake of the warning that earn hads may now only have horsepower to get out. the state department is making phone calls to any still there. to find out if they are planning to leave. again, this is deadly serious. with ukraine surrounded on three sides by thousands and thousand of russian troops, the white house says vladimir putin has not decided whether to act. but national security adviser jake sullivan bluntly laying out what an invasion could look like. aerial bombing and missile attacks. civilians killed. a fwround invasion by a massive force. and the possibility of a rapid assault on ukraine's capital. president joe biden expected to hold a call with vladimir putin tomorrow morning at 11:00. they haven't talked since the end of december. and the situation has only gotten more dangerous since then. and with fears growing of invasion in ukraine, right here at home we've got some newly released videos of the scene in

the capitol rotunda as rioters flooded the seat of our democracies on january 6th. we're not bleepg the froh pan. not bleaching the profanity so you can see and hear it exactly as it happened. this video shot by someone in the crowd shows the battle in the rotunda intense shoving matches between rioters and officers. one officers punching a rioter several times. >> what the fuck? >> there is also new police bodycam footage. this one shows an officer identified as n.r. rushing into the rotunda to join the line of police trying to talk down that mob. rioters shouting be with you are you guys proud of yourselves? and who are you guy sns we are

the people. >> legitimate political discourse? i don't think so. and we all know it got so much worse. police were beaten to within an inch of their lives for trying to defend the capitol and our democracy. and as a january 6th committee keeps digging for the truth we learn tonight that the former president still hasn't turned over all the documents the national archives wants. that is according to a source familiar with the situation. another source saying that the archives had to threaten to go to congress and the doj to get the 15 boxes of documents that the former president took him when he left washington in disgrace. boxes. he reportedly stored in his personal suite at mar-a-lago. documents he is required by law to turn over. but he sure seemed to know when

he was yelling about hillary clinton's emails. >> she showed great negligence. and the real word is negligence in what happened. she put us all at risk. if i got a subpoena, think of this -- if i got a subpoena for emails, if i deleted one email, like a love note to melania, it's the electric chair for trump. >> hillary was a criminal. she deleted her emails. people go to jail for that. >> but her e-mails. but her emails. lock him up. where are the conservative or the trump supporters saying lock him up for at this point appears to be much worse than what hillary clinton was accused of. remember, he is the commander in chief.

and in the face of all that, there is what's looking more and more like a showdown on our border with canada. you're looking at truckers and other protesters covid restrictions and protesting covid restrictions in windsor, ontario at the bridge connecting the city to the detroit, a bridge carrying about quarter of all trade between the u.s. and canada. the protesters defying a judge's order to clear the crossing by 7:00 p.m. more than three hours ago. the mayor of windsor threatening to start towing vehicles. workers in michigan could lose $51 million in wages this week. they're hurting workers. 51 million. $51 million in lost wages this week. the homeland security warning the protest could affect the super bowl. why is the right cheering while our economy is being damaged?

>> let me say the canadian truckers are heroes, patriots and marching for your freedom and my freedom. >> well, you just know ted kruds that it would be him. we've got more on this coming up. so stay tuned. i want to get to the latest on the threat of the russia innovation of ukraine. cnn emjay lee at the white house. oren liebermann at the presenting. good evening to both of you. this is really really serious fingerprint. emjay i start with you, the shift in tone from the white house in the last 24 hours making it clear that russia could invade at any moment and president biden set to talk to russian president vladimir putin tomorrow. what do we know about the high stakes call. >> don, this is a phone call set to take place tomorrow morning. president biden will make the phone call from camp david which is where he is going to be spending the weekend. and interestingly, a white house official told us earlier tonight that initially the kremlin had

suggested that monday is when the phone call should take place. bup that the white house had countered with saturday. so that's why now the phone call is happening tomorrow instead that back and forth clearly does seem to suggest that from the white house's perspective they would rather have this dialogue happen sooner rather than later. and in the big picture it of course shows the u.s. still trying to engage vladimir putin in diplomacy. but, of course, diplomacy we are about to learn in the coming days whether the diplomacy efforts have worked or not. biden and the aides that are close to him, senior arids have been pretty clear in recent days that trying to do diplomacy with vladimir putin is certainly tricky and challenging, that he is somebody the president himself finds unpredictable. he has said repeatedly, you know, he is not someone whose mind i'm going to try to pretend

to be able to read. in fact, he has said i don't even know if vladimir putin himself knows what exactly he wants to do. we will hopefully get that readout once that happened tomorrow. the last time the leaders spoke was in december, don. >> oren, the u.s. ordered 3,000 more troops to poland. tell us more about u.s. preparations ahead of the possible invasion. >> from the military perspective, one thing is clear. there is no plan right now to send the military into ukraine. there are defensive weapons going into ukraine from america but not troops themselves. more now going to poland. the 82nd airborne an elite unit able to adapt to a number of different missions, in this case we reported earlier this week on wednesday that part of the mission they'll be going into ukraine to do is assist americans come out of ukraine. give them temporary shelter and see how else they can help and part of the mission jake sullivan made clear is that nato

allies reassured reinforced provide a deterrent yoos from russian president vladimir putin as he makes or doesn't make the decision. it needs to be clear to him that nature orr stands united if he makes the move into ukraine he will feel the full brunt of sanctions and knows well if he goes an inches further nato stands ready to initiate article 5 there. >> oren we see russian troops on three sides of ukraine and biden's national security adviser made this prediction. listen. >> if a russian attack on ukraine proceeds it's likely to begin with aerial bombing and missile attack that is could obviously kill civilians without regard to nationality. a subsequent ground invasion would involve the onslaught of a massive force. >> you talked about this. but what are you hearing about possible scenarios here? >> bottom line is if they decide to go in it will be ugly. whether that's a smaller incursion on the east side of ukraine, or whether they go all

out. sullivan also said that russia has enough forces and perhaps the intent to try to take over large swaths of territory and major cities including the capitol of ukraine, kyiv. if any try to do that first they'll meet a ukrainian military that's at this point well armed. certainly not as well as russians but well equipped at this point and if they stick around and try to occupy ukraine or greater parts of it an i mean surjts from ukraine's population it will be ugly, horrible, terrible. words we heard in the pentagon about how this would look if they try to move in. but that decision whether he has made it or not is unclear .that's the bvl and the hardest part of this what is putin's decision, what is his calculation? let's not forget the u.s. is looking for increase in cyberattacks, information warfare pb disinformation. and a potential false flag operation to signal that it's coming. but at this point i think it's clear that the u.s. government thinks this could very well be

come in the next few days here. >> oren, emjay, thank you very much. we'll be following. thousands of russian troops surrounding ukraine as we've been talking about this evening. countries around the world urging citizens to get out now. will vladimir putin invade ukraine? a former defense secretary weighs in. that's next. that i can get. at liberty butchemel... cut. liberty mu... line? cut. liberty mutual customizes yoyour car insurance so you only pay for what you n need. cut. liberty m..... am i allowed to riff? what if i come out of the water? liberty biberty... cut. we'll dub it. liberty mutual customizes your car insurance so you only pay for what you need. only pay for what you need. ♪ liberty. liberty. liberty. liberty. ♪

president biden set to speak with russian president vladimir putin tomorrow as the white house warns russian forces could strike ukraine at any moment, even while the beijing olympics are still going on. the administration warning americans to get out of ukraine now. the pentagon sending an additional 3,000 troops to poland to reassure nato allies. but tonight the kremlin accusing of white house of whipping up hysteria. a lot to discuss with former defense secretary william cohen. thank you for joining us. i've been telling you i have a bad feeling about this. i hope i'm wrong here. but let's discuss. the white house issuesing this dire warning. russia attack of ukraine could come within days. i want you to listen tonight what adam schiff is talking about about putin. watch. >> i find if hard to conceive he would go to the trouble of the

massive buildup for the second time merely as a show of strength. so there could be a very substantial invasion of ukraine. it could include trying to take down the capital of kyiv, try to change the government. and as the intelligence community has declassified, it also may involve a false flag operation where they stage something and blame ukraine for the outbreak of hostilities. >> at this point, do you see any signs of an invasion that an invasion won't happen in. >> i don't. again, it's always possible. but if you look at what he has done i don't think it's at all consistent with a training exercise. you don't invest that kind of money in operational involvement if you're just training for a limited period of time for a limited purpose. i think that putin sees this as

his opportunity. he has looked at the united states. he has seen the deep divisions across our economy, racially, religiously and certainly economically. and he is saying the united states is divided. and frankly i'm helping to divide the united states throughout the country. perhaps up even on the borders with canada and elsewhere. so i'm dividing the united states from amongst themselves. i'm dividing. i tried to divide the europeans haven't succeeded there. but i think his own calculation is if they impose the sanctions i can weather them with the help of the chinese. i can can work around them over the long term. and perhaps short term. but they will grow more tired of the sanctions than i will. and i think that's part of the calculation now. now, had the former ambassador to ukraine on and he suggested there is a camp ramp putin can take saying i won, wanted your attention i got it now let's sit down and talk.

but understand what putin has done. once again, they're playing the victim. if you listen to them, this is a disinformation campaign. no it's an information campaign that we're waging. and once again the russians are saying the devil made us do this. the devil is making us kill thousands of ukrainians. why? because they are breathing the fresh air of freedom. and that is a threat to our cl cl clepto kratic way of life. they are the guardiansers even though they are marching 130,000 people on the borders and threatening the defeat of the ukrainians. one thing adam schiff did not say in the intelligence world they talk about a decapitation strike and that is to go after the leadership and remove them. that's possible. they have that option in mind as well. the oblt to go into the capitol. they may have special forces on the ground. they may nb a position to take out leadership and put their own

folks in charge and say it's all over, no need for you to rice up and defend yourselves we control everything now. so many options available. tomorrow i think president biden says i'll give it one last shot. this is crucial to world stability because the stock markets are reacting to all this. the economies are going to be affected everywhere. and russia will emerge from this in a way in the world's eyes that they are the bullies they are breaking the world order. >> let me jump in here. what -- this is a concern. people want to know what the role -- what role the u.s. troops, the u.s. military being sent to flateo countries in the region, what happens with them if russia invades ukraine? >> they stay there, hopefully they're reinforced. they stay there not just for a week or two or a month. but on a permanent rotational basis we beef up all of our -- our support in the nato

countries. after all, nato doesn't have a separate force. it's comprised of all of the militaries of the nato members. but if we hold that unification then we have a very powerful force that is facing the russians in the future. so, i mean, there are -- don't think this stops with ukraine. that is why other nato members in the baltics are concerned about it. lithuania, estonia and elsewhere. also in perhaps even poland at some point in time if it goes unchecked. so these forces will be stationed. and they will be upgraded and reinforced and on the ready to see if russia intends to go beyond ukraine if in fact they go into ukraine. >> it's frightening. i mean it is frightening. we are so happy to have you here and get your expertise secretary william cohen. thank you i appreciate it. >> thank you. $51 million in lost wages. that could just be the start here. trucker protests in canada putting the economy on the line

here's our breaking thus news. look at the pictures on your screen. that's windsor, ontario, where a canadian judge issued an order allowing police to begin clearing people who have been protest attention covid-19 mandates for days at the ambassador bridge, a bridge

connecting to detroit here in u.s. now the protesters are still out there after a 7:00 p.m. deadline to vacate the area. they earlier allowed one lane of the bridge to reopen. block aids at several points along the border slowing the movement of goods and impacting production at ford and general motors plants. joining me now is business journalistist mark stewart. mark thank you very much. let me get this. good evening, thank you. >> good to see sfwlu general motors is flying one to two coopering planes from the canada into the u.s. trying to ensure getting car parts across the border. ford running at reduced capacity. workers in michigan could lose over $50 million in wages this week because of the blockade. how hard is it hitting the industry the auto industry. >> it's hitth the auto industry and so many other industries. think about what we have been dealing with lately. we have a supply chain that is already stressed.

this is adding more tension to the auto makers and so many other sectors of our economy. here is something that people may find interesting. canada is our number one or number two largest trading partner, depending on which list you look at. and that bridge between windsor ontario and my hometown of detroit, michigan, it's responsible for 25% of all of the trade. so this is -- the blockades are really putting a block on the economy. this is impacting everything from produce, to auto parts, the list goes on. >> go on -- list the oindustries this blockade -- you said it's produce, auto parts. others? >> any industry is aircrafted. i mean, not everyone can afford to fly things in on a plane like the big auto makers are. you know who is really hurting is mall businesses and businesses around the auto plants that have had to shut down. >> yes, i was saying during the

break, you know, that this was -- i believe in the right to protest. and that is an american right. but this is -- do you think this is something quite different because of what doing to the economy. >> well it's obviously having an economic zing. >> billions of dollars. >> billions of dollars and will likely according to the economists and analyst reports it will have some kind of impact, maybe not long-term but in the short-term. but the other thing to -- to keep in mind heard is that these businesses are -- have no choice but to depend on the truckers to move goods. they can't necessarily get an airplane or do something on rail. so it is so widespread. >> because executives are telling you this is a north american version of the ship stuck in to it suez canal last year. >> i talked to the head of the detroit chamber of commerce. that's what he said.

the ship stuck in the canal. >> billions of dollars. >> and happening in north america. >> yeah. so then what is -- what's the solution here? because you can't -- can you complaint about the supply chain and that workers are hurting and that the economy is hurting if you're blocking and causing to an extent the supply chain to hurt and workers to be hurt and wages to be hurt? >> well there are so many philosophical issues at stake here. but what it is perhaps doing is raising this conversation about how we are going to live during the pandemic and hopefully post pandemic. you know, the chair of the federal reserve said the course of the economy is going to be determined by the path of the virus. i think this falls ound this umbrella. this will likely cause many governments around the world to reexamining their policies towards vaccination. corporate america is having that conversation today and will likely in the days ahead. >> so, you know, sunday is the

super bowl. >> sure. >> homeland security is warning similar style protests could start happening within our borders. what is the effect here? >> well. >> what are the consequences. >> well, look any disruption of any moving part of pour economy because the supply chain is so strained it can have a lasting impact and bite. authorities here in the states are well aware of what's happening. the other question is too, we are waist facing a truck driver shortage here in this country. about 80,000 fewer than we should perhaps have. that's also happening at the same time that truckers are protesting. so these different -- the different ideas are going to have to reconcile or we're going to have continued economic detriment. >> problematic. very problematic. and we can see sunday what happens with the super bowl if it affects that. thank you, mark. >> take care. >> appreciate it. >> a source telling cnn trump still has documents that should be in the national archive.

the justice department releasing new video from january 6th capturing a showdown between police and rioters at the capitol rotunda. that is tonight the former president is still in possession of documents sought by the national archives adding to the growing list of questioning over his handling ever documents. let's discuss with senior legal analyst and preet bharara. the author of justice the guide for truth seekers. good to see you. >> good to see. >> you the national archives has been trying to get who would of the documents held in moormg

threatening to go through congress or the doj to get who would of them. why wasn't law enforcement involved earlier this. >> i don't know it's yet a matter for law enforcement. i think there are questions about what the fisher and folks at doj are doing. they have a lot of fish to fry. including figuring out who was responsible for and inciting the insurrection on january 6th. you know, there are a couple of wrinkles here when you talk about who potentially committed a criminal violation. you know, was it accidental? was it negligence? how did the documents get to mar-a-lago? it looks very suspicious and maybe there is a smoking gun somewhere that suggests somebody should be severely held responsible up and including the former president. but the second wrinkle is is the president of the united states can argue that he has the ability to declassify things. he is an authorizing figure in the intelligence community. and so that's not necessarily, you know, a full response to any legal action that might be taken. but it's complicatinged. it's not as simple as some seem

to think it is. >> if trump is holding sensitive documents that the archives want, how could this play out legally? >> well, i think there is a process going on between the national archives and the trump folks. some of the documents have been turned over. i don't know enough details to understand why it's the case that not everything has been turned over. is there some argument to be made? is it unclear whether the documents are ones that were created after the presidency or not? i don't know. there doesn't seem to be a good explanation for it. and given the fact that a number of of the documents have been turned over, i can't give you an explanation as to why they all have not been. >> the january 6th committee looking for answers into gaps in the official white house call logs on january 6th. congressman jamie rascon saying this earlier tonight when asked if he believes they can get the president's cell phone records from that day. here it is. >> we don't know exactly why there is this huge gap.

we don't know whether, you know, that's something like watergate where someone deleted or he was using his cell phone or someone else's cell phone. we plan to get to the bottom of it. we view all of it as discoverable as you are saying, erin, we have a rate and the supreme court has been repeatedly clear about this we have the right to get the information we want in order to comply with house resolution 503, which commands to us give a complete report to the american people and to the congress about the events of that day. >> so how strok is the case of the committee if they subpoenaed trump's phone record? >> well, i think they have a strong case to get whatever records they want. when you subpoena phone records you're not getting the content of conversation. those are things of the past. ee fem easterly have gone away. what you are trying to do is establish connections between people. pinpoint times. so i think they have a strong case to get that. now when representative rascon

and others talk about gaps. i'm not sure what that means. it sounds like it's the case that committee of conversations taking place between donald trump and other people including mark meadows. maybe vice-president pence and others. knowing the conversations took place and not being able to pinpoint an actual toll record, a record of a call from a trump phone to the other person's phone, suggests a gap. what it really suggests is as representative rascon also mentioned, is that the committee probably doesn't have or may not even know which devices were used for which calls. there is reporting that donald trump sometimes used staffer phones. other people's phones to make phone calls. he might have had one or more other personal cell phones. i think they can reverse engineer that to the extent it's possible. by figuring out you know who the person was that was called. being sure that that call was made and then seeing the numbers from which the calls happened. and my guess is that they're

taking a go at that and get more information in the future. but i think they need to figure out every single device used by trump on that day and the days leading up to it to get a full picture. >> preet, before we go, this -- the mishandling of documents is just beyond rich coming from the manned who hounded hillary clinton for her private server in the 2016 campaign. clinton responding today in a tweet where she is wearing a hat with the words but mere e-mails on it republicans would have lost their monday if reports came out that clinton flushed documents down a toilet. >> yeah. i guess that's -- that's the question. >> there is a lot of -- there is a lot of inconsistency pb a lot of hypocrisying with going on a number of years now. it extends to things beyond a comparison between what donald trump did and hillary clinton did with respect to documents or with respect to the handling of classified information otherwise. it's a sad feature about our

democracy at the moment. and, you know, you're right to raise it. it doesn't have you know, legal consequence but it has some political consequence. >> preet, thank you very much. i appreciate it. thanks, don, good to be here. mississippi the latest state trying to ban critical race theory from schools. even though it's taught in one class in one university in the entire state. and something pretty crazy happened there when one conservative student enrolled in the class. she learned from it. stay with us. that's next. ♪ ♪
