>> -- >> are there other officers there? hold on. hold on. >> [indiscernible]. >> i think the officers are in the building. >> okay. >> just stay quiet. >> okay. >> so heart-wrenching. mia's parents want all the officers outside to hear the call interest their daughter so they can quote, understand what the hell the kids were going through. erin burnett outfront starts right now. outfront next. russian commanders saying they are desperate for supplies

raising money on a social media app. as the mystery grows if putin forces are leaving a major city. breaking news we are learning now that the justice department may appoint a special counsel to investigate the -- and a story you'll see first with election deniers in arizona. we refute the conspiracy theorys one at a time. good evening i'm erin burnett. outfront tonight. outrage. two russian commanders outraged because they have to raise money to buy their own supplies for the battlefield. it's filled with anger and disbelief. and expletives. we can't air most of it.

here is a portion. >> translator: tell me did you receive a telegram for these shovels and all of this other [ bleep ]. >> yes, yes, i had three or four of them. >> four? this [ bleep ] is starting to annoy me to be honest. i am not sparing any money for this -- [ bleep ] it's just where do you get the money from? >> translator: i spoke with -- and they are throwing in some money. >> they were talking about raising money through the social media site telegram understood to afford shovels. so that was for shovels. in this case the conversation continues and they talk about the complaints they hear about ch commanders. >> the officers are looking to the side and showing their dissatisfaction. is the warring with paid for with our money or what?

where is the government in all of this? >> putin's government. the commanders in this case echo what we hear from putin's forces, and we are getting more video just into outfront this shows the forces liberating a village in the kherson region. that was part of putin's original offensive. i want to show you another striking image. this is an administrative building in kherson city. the flagpole there is bare. and you would possibly not notice that but it looked like this earlier this week. a russian flag flying there. and now those are suddenly gone. and by the way, you see the city it's not like mariupol not destroyed in the center.

this is geographically crucial for putin and provides the bridge to crimea. and now the flags have vanished. why? did they retreat or is there something much more sinister going on and putin is trying to trick the ukrainians. i will speak to boris, he was a russian diplomat for 20 years and resigned in disgust because of putin's invasion. first we talk to nick, what is the latest on the ground tonight? >> the ukrainian authorities are wondering, that they are good at it. the ukrainians had lightning advantages, why were they able to do that? because they signals to the russians through social media and many other ways that they

would attack in the south and the russians moved forces south and the ukrainians moved north and took the territory more easily. they look at the top of the government building and the clues they get from kherson they are worried. >> a change over the government building in kherson, no russian flag. on a bus nearby residents cheer realizing that a russian check point is gone. >> and a resident that cnn is not identifying described the changes. >> translator: almost no large armors vehicles in the city, during the day he says. and all the military check points in the city are gone. >> -- the region's russian installed governor told a russian media propagandist that

russian troops are holding the city for now but most likely our troops will leave for the east bank. what russia is planning is not clear. >> we realize they are certain tricks. military maneuvers. and we see in kherson there are military working civilian clothes. >> wednesday, they destroyed a russian surface to air missile system often used to hit ukrainian civilians. in the black sea too, russian appears on the back foot as grain shipments resume after putin's refusal this weekend to cooperate with the u.n. brokered deal citing new guarantees from

ukraine. >> russia reserves the right to withdrawal from the agreements if they are breached by ukraine. >> another sign according to ukraine's president that putin is being forced to change. >> 252 days ago, russia guaranteed security guarantees from the united states of america and after eight months of the special operation, the kremlin is demanding security demands from ukraine. >> in kherson, putin's intent is tar from clear. they report plenty of russian heavy weapons on the edge of the city. >> the ukrainians are pretty shore they can take kherson, so they want to know what putin will get out of it when he loses it. this is vitally important, part of the -- would and be capital

of the region he has annexeded . that is the big question. you have the groups like vagna looking over putin's shoulder getting more powerful and making more money out of this war, and that is also a kind of a threat for putin too. with people other than him getting more power. >> thank you, nick. outfront now boris was a russian diplomat and resigned after russia's war in ukraine. one person we talk about on the show that appears to be close to putin now and wants to run the war in a much different way.

do you think he could take over what is his role with putin? >> it's a very interesting moment in all of this campaign, that he has become so influential. and its a person that can decide, and make a lot of decisions. so i think he is some how a favorite of vladimir putin for now. and vladimir putin trusts him with the most difficult and challenging missions on the frontline. because he controls these private military companies, like vagna. and they are known, and notorious for being the most cruel of all russian armed

structures, which are now in ukraine. i believe that he has no political future in russia because he has no social basis and has no allies within the russian establishment because all of the russian establishment, decision makers like generals or special service people -- they hate and despise him as a former criminal and has no connections, who was like -- a jumped up man or something. i would not overestimate his significance for now. >> do you read anything into this though? does his rise and the fact that you say so many empowered despise him. what does this mean about putin? he seems to be letting him in more. is it a sign of isolation or

others turning against putin, how do you see it? >> i would like to see it as a sign of further isolation of putin, of course. and his frustration that putin is obviously disappointed in his army, his generals which can not -- a victor of ukraine which they had promised to him before the war started. of course, he now thinks that he is, you know his unscrupulous methods of war could have victories. any of this will lead to further destabilization within the russian elite. it's obvious one way or the other. he will be more dependant on putin or the army generals.

and those two groups will be in constant fight with one another. and maybe putin is counting on this that they fight with one another and he can be above the fight? but for how long i don't know. >> at one point in your career you worked for the ministries department for armed commission and control and that was related to weapons of mass destruction. the latest we have from u.s. intelligence is that they have discussed specifics. how under what conditions to use a tactical nuclear weapon in ukraine. >> do you think the possibility of this is increasing at all? >> i believe there is still the possibility of using nuclear weapons on the russian side of course. because every general wants to use every means he has to gain

victory. and they see they have no prospects of winning this war or having a kind of acceptable stalemate for russia. and of course, i think naturally they discussion scenarios of how they could deploy nuclear weapons. but i don't think -- to me as a non-expert in military affairs, it is obvious that even if they use tactical nuclear weapons it will not change the course of the war. they will have limited military gains and devastating consequences for russia. >> thank you boris for your time. >> thank you, bye bye. next, the breaking news, cnn learning that the justice department may appoint a special counsel for the investigation

surrounding trump. what does it mean for a possible indictment? and biden and obama in sync for the final stages of the campaign. plus, a story you'll see first outfront. we'll take election deniers conspiracy theorys to a top election official to find out the truth. >> you have to get rid of the machines and go to the paper ballots counted by the rprecinc committee man.

breaking news. cnn is learning that the justice department could name a special counsel to investigate former president trump. trump appears to be using close toward a 2024 announcement. the former white house counselor kellyanne conway who remains close to trump said this just today. >> i think you can expect him to announce soon. he is being urged by some people to still have a november surprise. but we are trying to mitigate november surprises for all the candidates. >> evian perez is out front. evan this is significant you learn that the justice department is considering the special counsel what more do you know? >> these are conversations behind the scenes because of the

possibility that the former president announces a candidacy for office again. and it's real and most likely after the election. and for the justice department and the possibility of having a dep that answers to trump's potential rival in 2024 doing an investigation of an on twoing candidate. one of the ideas is, does a special counsel isolate the department from potential criticism. this is trump and it's political and he will make a thing of it. >> what does it tell you? some say it's special counsel, you will put all of this layering and infrastructure around it. what is the question you ask when the doj is considering

indicting him? >> you have people working for the justice department and twin investigations ongoing. and they are ramping up and beefing up it's staff and adding prosecutors. you have new people coming into the national security ity divis and criminal division to beef up this investigation. this could move under the umbrella of a special counsel without missing a beat. >> we know that the january 6th special counsel is different but paralleling. and in are interviewing the members of the secret service. whether they tried to get them to go to where the riot was beginning. do you know where this stands? >> one thing they are trying to work out is what happened in the key days especially with the

vice president's detail. mike pence's detail. they have brought in key witnesses including the head of mike answer's detail to talk about exactly what was going on. you remember, one thing that cassidy hutchinson and other witnesses talked about was the fear that pence had if he left the capitol he could not come back to complete the job to certify the election. those are the answer they are getting from the witnesses, including people around the vice president to understand a little better about what exactly those decisions were involved. >> evan perez, thank you so much. in breaking the news about the possible special counsel. thank you. and next trump back on the campaign trail. his pack pouring millions into candidates for the senate. >> and election workers, and mail-in ballots we are setting the record straight.

tonight a live look at sioux city, iowa where donald trump is about to make his return to the campaign industrial. and pouring money from his pac in tight races that could control the u.s. senate. they aare pouring millions in arizona and pennsylvania. and he is set to campaign in pennsylvania, florida and ohio. and here now is hara. our reporter. how are the candidates doing in the states where trump's pac is putting in the money? >> where trump is putting the money in the primary. you talk about georgia and pennsylvania, and be arizona mark kelly the democrat seems to be slightly ahead. and georgia is so tight at this particular point. that is probably heading toward a runoff. obviously if none of the candidates reach 50% plus one. and pennsylvania john fetman is

up just a tiny bit. any money that goes in there would be welcome by the republican candidate. >> you talk about georgia again, can you imagine, take two, let do a winter runoff in georgia. >> so much coffee would be needed. >> you mention oz. in pennsylvania is he backed by trump and herschel walker, he has all the allegations out there. would republicans do better with better candidates without this baggage or is that totally not part of it? >> that is part of it. "the new york times" asked would you rather that democrats or republicans control the united states senate. the generic republican is out running where the actual republican candidate is.

and in georgia, you would expect the generic republican ahead. but mcmasters is trailing. >> if the four points was right that would be a republican seat fair and square. >> it probably would be. have you to make the successful argument that the republican candidates are below par and if trump had backed someone else or backed nobody at all maybe the republicans would be in better shape. >> that is fascinating. we talk about the trump pac. where he is going. tonight he is in iowa and then he is going to florida. the senate and governors race is not close there. so what is he doing? >> the forecast for those races are not even close. they are expected to be republican wins. iowa governor and senator. and florida senator and

governor. they host the iowa caucuses and make he is looking ahead to 2024. or back a republican candidate and say my candidate won. >> and florida ron desantis. he wants to show up desantis in his home state that is also now trump's home state. >> it's about showing him up. >> thanks. >> buy me a coke. or i'll buy you a coke. >> here now is van jones, former adviser to president obama. you gave the caveat, the general republican ticket may be doing better. the races are incredibly close in the context that the republicans have to pick up one senate seat to regain control of what they have. and chuck schumer said, i believe the democrats will hold the senate and maybe even pick up seats. how realistic is he?

>> i think that is optimistic. i think right now you talk to most people on the ground, they are very, very concerned about this red rip tide if not a red wave or red tsunami. we are talking about the ads and what is going on is online. what is happening is, when you knock on someone's door you don't know what they just saw on their cell phone. there is a whole lot of stuff going on under the surface that is bizarre. we don't know if there is a youth quake or a conspiracy theory. i think schumer is being his usual optimistic self. >> one top democrat is not optimistic self. the california governor, rumored 2024 hopeful himself gavin

newsom and he spoke out on what the democrats messages are and he was direct. >> does it feel like a red wave? >> of course it does. i am not paid to say that. i am paid to say, we are getting crushed on narrative. we are going to have to do better in terms of getting on the offense and stop being on the damn defense. >> it was not like he got overheard. okay, he wants everyone to hear. we are getting crushed. how significant is it to hear this from governor newsom? >> i think it's significant but the one thing about gavin newsom is he walks the talk. he goes on offense himself. he is buying ad hads himself as the california governor in florida. he is somebody that shows the agency. and says, where is everybody

else? i admire his passion but maybe not his timing. he walks the talk. the most aggressive democrat in the country right now. >> says we are getting crushed on messaging. and the white house says this should be about democracy. and not about the economy and abortion and the vote is bigger than that at this moment. president biden said it last night and former president obama said it. >> democracy itself. >> democracy is on the ballot. >> the democracy is on the ballot. >> they got the talking point consistent. but those on the close ballots. here are their final ads let me play a few. >> john will fight to make more

stuff here and cut taxes. >> we'll be at almost every committee leaders that did not vote for seniors. >> i ran against nancy pelosi for house leadership. i wanted to take the country in a new direction and still do. >> i did not hear democracy on the ballot, not once. who is right? >> i think both can be right. the candidates on the ground understand that it's the economic pain, people are sitting on a white hot stove. they want to hear that someone is going to do something with about the cost of living. when you are head of state you tell voters what they want to hear and sometimes what they need to hear. it's the case if a bunch of election deniers get ahold of

our election. by the way two things could be true at the same time. you can have real economic peril at the same time. i like seeing what obama is doing out there. he is tough on the economy but people have to say what they need to hear that democracy is on the ballot. >> thank you. next, we head to arizona where the gop candidates for governor, senate and secretary of state are all election deniers. and some voters are buying it. >> hard to trust anybody anymore. >> and some are forced to sleep under urinals in china. wait until you see this. ensur, with 30 grams of protein, one grgram of sugar and nutrients for immune health.

tonight cnn obtaining an internal email from the department of homeland security warning employees to be prepared for disturbances during election day. growing areas is arizona. where some voters are latching on to election lies by candidates running for governor, senate and secretary of state. dana sullivan is out front. >> reporter: in the crucial swing state of arizona republican nominees up and down the ballot allege with no substantial evidence that the

2020 election was stolen. take for carrie lake the represent nominee for governor. >> anyone that was involved in the corrupt, shoddy, shady election of 2020, lock them up. >> cnn spoke to voters at at her recent campaign events about the confidence if the recent election. >> it's hard to trust anybody anymore. >> if we have honest elections there is no question that carrie lake will win. >> we asked chairman bill gates who happens to be a republican to address their concern. >> i want to ask them about the extent that ballots that are mailed out are filled out by the the people that are intended for and not by anyone else. >> on the envelope themselves they fill out an affidavit and sign an affidavit that indicates that it was them and if the

signature does not match the signature in our voting registration. we'll call them up. >> there are some election official that have gone through fbi type training to look at signatures and compare them right? >> yes, absolutely. >> so many eyeballs are looking at this. >> do we have people that are trustworthy that went through thorough background checks that we can put in securely knowing that our elections, both sides, can have a fair chance at winning fairly. >> some of them it may be their first election. but a lot of them have a track record knowing they are trustworthy. we have representatives of republican and democratic party working together. so if you do have a rogue actor there are so many people watching them. we have the live stream cameras. there are so many checks and balances in the system that people are not aware of because

we did not have to go out and articulate that because people have for the most part accepted the elections. >> you have to get rid of the machines and two with the paper ballots counted by the committee man. >> we use a tabulation machine and it's on paper. we used them for decades we know the machines are audited over and over again. we show time and time again, by many experts that our machines are not connected to the internet in any way. and they do a more accurate job of counting votes than humans do. we do a hand count audit to confirm that the machines are operating properly. >> just to be honest. and do a job for the state and your party. don't make it personal. >> i agree with him. and so i am a republican, but having said that, this is a

non-partisan role we have. the references made to being personal. i think all of this has gotten horribly personal. and the personal insults hurled back and forth is not good for our democratic republic and not good for our civilization and culture this is why it's so important. >> erin, spending time in maricopa county, where bill gates runs. the election officials are trying so hard to be so transparent and put everything out. you hear the point there about the dehumanization and demonization. and not just of senior public officials but rank and file election workers. it's a really sad situation. >> it really is. they are trying to be transparent and answer the questions. and sometimes, you know, you give the answer and they don't

hear it and they don't listen to it. it's just the fear. >> thank you, it's an incredible report. i want to bring in the republican speaker of the house rusty bowers. rusty you detailed your refusal to over turn your election results despite the pressure you were under from president trump and others and the reality of a fair ballot. you stood up for that. speaker i appreciate that. he talked to voters, what is your question and they asked it and then bill gates gives the answer. we have cameras and signature verification and the machines are not connected to the internet. each one in specific detail do you think speaker that will make a difference to people that question the integrity of the

election. >> at least the people offered a thought. they had some questions, some specific thing to ask. some desire that a specific point was covered. and he covered them to us. i wish he would cover it to them personally. if that was possible. but there are a lot of folks here that don't listen. they gave up on the listening thing a year plus ago. it's frustrating. >> it's frustrating and terrifying. you say where do you break through. how do you talk to every voter and will they listen to you if you do? in your state nominees for governor, secretary of state, attorney general are all trump backed election deniers. and made that central to their campaigns. cary lake first and foremost. here is what she is telling voters about next week's

election. >> i am concerned it won't be completely fair. i don't have faith in the system. >> she has said that and similar again and again and again, speaker. how worried are you about this? >> i am only worried if the four of them were able to combine and bypass the legislature and courts. there are checks and balances even if these. there are people of authority and they will have great authority. i don't think their full-time job will be to try to undermine an election. there are some mr. finchin that say gentlemen i would really worry about. but all in all we'll move ahead. if the people don't want to hear one way, experience is a hard teacher. and some people don't learn by any official way. and i having gone through this experience, having gone and

answered those questions that were asked, myself. and effectively by democrats and republicans and independents and parties not determined. they are all working together at these counting center. there would be thousands of people involved in a conspiracy theory of the size that is pop gated. i gave up trying to convince people but have not given up trying to say, there are checks and there is concern, we'll watch it. >> i hope people know, it's just so important that you speak out. and courageous that you do so. there were protesters, some armed and came to your home while your late daughter was gr gavely ill. and you still speak out. it's an act of courage and important. speaker, thank you. >> thank you, very, very much.

next, a 14-year-old girl dying at a quarantine facility in china. the country doubling down on zero covid. and cases are raging on. we take you to beijing. and officials meeting with britney griner who is held in russia since february.

tonight, china scrambling to control a sudden outbreak, 3,000 now covid cases, and this in the face of a zero covid policy. this is according to reuters. authorities tonight ramping up restrictions and mass testings to contain the virus as outrage grows in china. covid limits are taking precedence over everything else. i want to warn you that what you are about to see in this report is disturbing. selina wang is "outfront." >> reporter: a 14-year-old girl lies in bed, convulsing at a covid quarantine facility in china. someone comes over, saying "the kid has a fever of 104 degrees fahrenheit and no one is coming." she died soon after. a man who says he is the girl's father posted this video online, filming his daughter's body. he is demanding justice. "i beg the communist party to

investigate," he says. cnn hasn't been able to independently verify the videos. they've been censored in china. along with these videos of a father desperately trying to revive his 3-year-old son. he can't get his child to the hospital fast enough because of covid restrictions. the boy later died. enraged residents took to the streets. swarms of armed police held them back. in lanzo city, some were forced to quarantine outside in the cold in parking lots. this viral video, which cnn could not verify, shows others forced to stay in male bathrooms, sleeping under urinals. in year three of the pandemic, every positive case and close contact is still sent to government quarantine facilities like these, and this one, the video says it's a quarantine site for kids in hannam

province. a little boy jumping on bricks to avoid the pool of dirty liquid. this is where they use the bathroom. distraught parents crowd outside to protest. protesters rush to the streets in lassa, tibet, and inning the end of a lockdown that has lasted for more than 80 days. and in another city workers are fleeing apple's plant after a massive covid outbreak. massive workers carrying their luggage walk long distances across highways, through villages, even through farm fields. those left at the factory claim living conditions are sub-par. videos appear to show workers literally fighting for boxes of supplies. china's leader xi jinping claims zero covid puts lives above all else. but for many it's precisely the policy itself that is ruining their lives. this woman sobs on the ground, crying that after she was caught with her mask pulled down, the government suspended her

business for 30 days, losing a month's income. metal spikes which the man filming says were installed on a compound gate to prevent residents from leaving, or red plastic barriers, this one celebrating a father from his daughter. the little girl worried, asks her dad how he is going to get home. but her father, like millions across china, likely has no idea when he can go home or when all of this will end. >> that is an unbelievable report. jaw on the floor watching it, selena. obviously, you're in beijing in the morning there. you're under quarantine. which people are listening around the world saying is this really real that we're seeing this in november 2022. what is your quarantine like right now? >> yeah, erin, i'm in the middle of a ten-day government mandated quarantine. it's because i came into china from overseas. so there is various types of

quarantine. quarantine for close car, people who have gotten covid, people who have come in from overseas. the last time i was in quarantine, i was actually on your show. that time it was a 21-day government mandated quarantine. this time it's just 10. but every time i reenter this country, it's this shocking jarring dystopian experience. so you get off the airplane. you sit on a bus for many hours. you get sent to a sealed quarantine facility, then the doors shut. i get woken up every morning with a knock on the door from a covid worker who takes my pcr test. i get food. it gets left outside my door three times a day. no choice in food. you got to eat what they deliver. and also, i stuck my arm outside briefly to film this. every few hours, you can smell and hear disinfectant, because there is a covid worker in a hazmat suit with a giant machine spraying disinfectant in the hallway. so it's no surprise, erin, that china has become increasingly isolated during the pandemic. we've all got to go through this if you're coming into the

country. >> absolutely unbelievable. seli selin a, thank you so much for that report. next, an update on american basketball star brittney griner who has been detained in russia now for months. a lot of ideas. soso when she wants a plan based on what matters most, she turns toto fidelity. at fidelity, anyone can create a free plan. a plan that can change as your priorities do. and nina's free plan? it leaves her free to focus on what's important right now. that's the planning effect. from fidelity. vo: the next time you fill up the tank, remember why it costs so much. because the biggest oil companies decided they need to profit even more. they make record profits... even as americans struggle to pay the bis. call it pricgouging. even as americans struggle to pcall it greed. call it enough already. with president biden's landmark bill,
