3:00 am
playoff spot. a lot of people saying listen, this guy doesn't have any coaching experience past high school, but showing up made decision to put matt ryan back in raised eyebrows and got a win. >> we'll watch him going forward. nice to see you, carolyn manno. thanks for joining us. i'm christine romans. "cnn this morning" starts right now. ♪ good morning, everyone. it is monday, november 14th, we're going to right off the top begin with breaking news. there's a manhunt under way at the university of virginia, right now school is on lockdown, the shooting taking place at the school's main campus in charlottesville. joe johns is standing by a block
3:01 am
away from the scene. this morning, what has happened? >> reporter: don, three dead, two injured here at the university of virginia. that according to a statement from jim ryan, the university's president. it happened around 10:30 eastern time right down the street from here. this is across from the fine arts building. the authorities continue their search for the suspect. the campus is in lockdown, people have been told to shelter in place and classes have been cancelled for the day, as the search for this shooter continues. apparently this was a student who police believe actually committed the shooting. don? >> we'll continue to check back in with you, that breaking news coming out of university of virginia on lockdown after a man hunt for a gunman.
3:02 am
thank you. also happening right now, president biden is meeting with chinese president xi jinping on the sidelines in bali, their first in-person sit down since biden took office. moments ago the two leaders spoke about what they hope to get out of the meeting. listen. >> and as you know, i'm committed to keeping the lines of communication open between you and me personally but our governments across the board. our two countries have so much that we have an opportunity to do with. >> translator: a statesman should think about and know where to lead his country. he should also think about and know how to get along with other countries and the wider world. >> let's go to mj lee joining us live from bali. so china and the united states, obviously, see each other to say competitors is not to say enough. but biden also made clear he doesn't want conflict.
3:03 am
he talked about ways they can manage -- i think that's what the word he used, manage the relationship. what should we know? >> reporter: poppy, good morning. we are currently watching such a significant piece of history unfold in u.s./china relations. the two leaders of the two superpowers have been meeting for well over an hour here in bali on the sidelines of the g20 summit. you saw when they greeted each other, there was a real warmth and familiarity as they talked about the fact they've known each other for years, the importance of their bilateral relationship and the fact they need to keep open minds going forward. this is remarkable if you think about the fact that this meeting is taking place at such a real low point for u.s./china relations, exacerbated in part by house speaker nancy pelosi's
3:04 am
visit to taiwan. taiwan is just one of the challenging issues that the two leaders are going to be discussing. we don't know when exactly we will see president biden emerge from this meeting. u.s. officials have said they set aside at least a couple hours for the two men to talk. but there's no time limit on the summit. >> the expectations seem to be pretty modest what they're going to come out of the meeting with. they're not expected to issue a joint statement we will hear from president biden in a press conference. what is the white house expecting when it comes to what they're going to get out of this meeting potentially? >> you're absolutely right. u.s. officials have been clear in setting the expectations ahead of time. telling reporters over and over again, we're not going for a set of deliverables here. there's not going to be a joint statement. i want to point out another sort of interesting dynamic headed into this meeting. you know, it is difficult to
3:05 am
overstate what a significant moment this is for the chinese leader. this is his first time leaving his country during the pandemic as china has improsed severe lockdowns and restrictions. and u.s. officials that itself made it more challenging in recent years to get a read obey j -- on beijing and its intentions. so this is an important opportunity to understand what the redlines are on a whole host of issues. this morning democrats are celebrating, narrow senate majority after victories in races in arizona and nevada, and hoping for another miracle, that would be keeping the house. where it stands right now. control of the lower is still undecided. republicans are in the lead, inching closer to the 218 seats
3:06 am
they need. several races still remain uncalled. thousands of votes remain uncounted. >> the uncertainty comes as republican leaders in the house and senate brace for tense talks after their party's disappointing election results. this week they'll hold a series of closed doors meetings to find out what went wrong and determine the fate of their leaders. speaker nancy pelosi said democrats are asking her to consider another leadership bid should democrats be able to eke out a win in the house. >> big questions about what that could potentially look like. we'll bring in harry inton to join us. this was once unthinkable that we're having this conversation on the monday after the midterm elections. how many races are still uncalled in the house and what are you watching this morning? >> let's lay out where things are. and sort of the uphill climb
3:07 am
that dreemocrats are facing. what you see is that republicans are up in 222 districts to democrat's 213. we're not there yet where we can project a republican win in the united states house of representatives. so let's go through the math and give you an understanding why it can be potentially difficult for republicans to lose that lead and democrats to kind of come back. we'll start with the easy seats democrats can gain. california house 13, this is one that we discussed on friday. the democrat is down by just 84 votes. when we spoke on friday, he was down by about two points, in the thousands of votes. so this is an easy type of district. but then it gets harder from there. to california's 22nd district, the republican is up by 5 percentage points. on friday it was 8 percentage
3:08 am
points. but just 39% of the estimated vote in. this is the type of district that in 2018, the old district, valadao was running and held a lead until the month after the election. i'm not saying we're going to be here a month, i hope not, but we might be in the long haul. let's get to arizona one, why it's difficult for democrats to make up the ground they need to in order to make up the house. you can see the incumbent is ahead. you can see there's 96% of the estimated vote in. when we were speaking on friday, schweikert was leading, he's gained since the votes came in. it's not just about democrats gaining back, it's about holding leads they currently have, this is an example of a district they weren't able to do that. >> at the house, the big lead on
3:09 am
saturday was when we called and said democrats are projected to hold the senate. people are still watching georgia to see what happens there. what's the difference in if they have the majority or if they get georgia and have the 51 seat majority. >> you heard president biden saying i want that 51 seat. but this is when you have a tied united states senate it slows everything down, you need discharge votes that are needed to get a full senate to vote and takes hours of debate. this is a case when you're trying to run through traditional nominations, there are a lot out there. it slows the pace down, having a true majority lessens the chance of a tie, it speeds things up, and less reliant on moderates like joe manchin and kristin cinema.
3:10 am
>> harry, thank you we'll check back to see what's going on in the house. up next we have senate majority leader chuck schumer joining us live in studio. we'll tell you his reaction to democrats maintaining control whether they are going to control the house and where the party's agenda is right now. comedian dave chappelle s saying he denounces anti-semitism and stands with the jewish community hosting "saturday night live." >> one thing i don't like about the current environment is there's a lot of division. >> that is jeff bezos he's sounding off on division in america. more on the exclusive cnn interview straight ahead.

3:15 am
i denounce anti-semitism in all its forms. and i stand with my friends in the jewish community. and that, kanye, is how you buy yourself some time. >> that is comedian dave chappelle, leading his snl monologue with kanye west's recent anti-semitic commcomment. here's more from his monologue. >> some scrapes before, but only when he's in trouble i pull up, i pull up immediately. at this time i'm like let me see what's going to happen first.
3:16 am
i been to hollywood. i don't want y'all to get mad at me, i'm telling you, i've been in hollywood. this is what i saw. it's a lot of jews. like a lot. it's a rule. you know, the rules of perception. if they black, it's a gang, italian, it's a mob, but if they're jewish, it's a coincidence and you should never speak about it. i know jewish people have been through terrible things all over the world but you can't blame that on black americans, you just can't. early in my career i learned there are two words you should never say together in sequence, and those words are the and jews. never heard someone do good after they said that. >> that did not take long for the head of the antidefamation
3:17 am
league to respond, writing we shouldn't expect dave chappelle to serve as society's morale compass but disturbing to see snl popularizeize jewish sen misle -- >> you had to know it was going to cause some controversy. >> which was the point, obviously. he was trying to show this is what it's like to walk some sort of line, some sort of rhetorical line. everything about it was constructed to play act out the idea of cancellation. >> you think it was more about cancellation, sort of bringing people's attention to cancellation rather than -- this is what i heard from some of --
3:18 am
jewish folks friends i said, i didn't think it was a big deal, he walked close to the line, straddled it. and others were offended as jon jonathan greenblatt was, but if you're not offended by comments about the trans community, his comments about the black community but would it be hypoc hypoc hypocritical? >> i don't want to say how people hear things. jokes have a victim of the joke. comedians are struggling with the fact that those victims can speak out and back so they're accountable for the laughter. but chappelle has this very sort of -- he's on a pedestal in terms of his position in the culture. snl puts him on after big elections and his show was known for straddling the line with the
3:19 am
spiky commentary on race, et cetera. i think the problem right now is that he's sort of dragging into the limelight a kind of black strain of anti-semitism from the '90s but he's not reckoning with it with the same precision that he does with, say, trump voters. earlier in the monologue he spoke about the appeal of trump to certain voters who he called trump an honest liar. the idea that trump somehow was exposing political and economic sort of imbalances and exploitation that he could take advantage of that the average person couldn't. he was like, hey, everybody loved that trump said x, y, southern and z. >> that stood out to me. >> with the anti-semitism it's like -- to give an example way back when he talked about "the chappelle show" being
3:20 am
cancelled -- not cancelled he took a pause from the show and walked away. later he told oprah that one of the thing that is bothered him was at one point doing a skit when he was in black face -- he had to be there -- and a white crew member laughed a little too hard. he said, i was worried about being socially irresponsible. i was worried about that laughter, it is very strange now to see him all these years later not being worried about that laughter, not taking the same care. >> is it culturally productive? they're saying he's starting a conversation, but -- >> no one needs to start a conversation about anti-semitism. been around for a minute. we all know the points of it. i think you have to ask yourself, is he exposing some culture truth to your ear or is he whitewashing, amplifying toxic ideas and laundering them through his job as a comedian.
3:21 am
>> is he excusing what kanye west or kyrie said or did? >> for the jokes it's easy to focus on those things but we're reckoning with anti-semitism more broadly in the culture. and this is a very specific cultural platform. and i think how we hear it is in that context. we can try and make it like it's about kyrie, kanye, it's about this and that. really it's about are we back to a point it's okay to talk in this manner in every sector of life and not expect a penalty. the thing he's talking about, cancellation, still not experienced, on snl, selling out venues, still on netflix. the thing he's complaining about is the social penalty for saying something that people find inappropriate. that's going to happen no matter
3:22 am
what when you're a comedian. >> he made the point we need to talk -- i don't remember the exact words but that was the point, people are too scared to say anything. >> do you feel like you could say anything in that room? is that starting a dialogue? do you think that sparked anything other than oh no, not again. i think there's a way maybe to try to do what he did in the past, which is to needle us all in the sensitive places where we could be doing better. i don't know if he's doing better. and talk about scared, even now i'm sure if i say something that anows him, he'll do what he did in his monologue, referencing some woman journalist calling her the b-word. this is a person not prepared to have dialogue. this is a personing doing monologue. >> this moment there's been a
3:23 am
huge increase in anti-semitism and attacks on jewish people. and secondly, i can't sit here and pretend i know what it's like to be jewish and listen to this. one of my jewish friends wrote me after this and said, the takeaway here isn't that anti-semitism is wrong, it's that publically voicing anti-semitism is wrong. that's a horrible takeaway, right? >> we don't have to be jewish to understand how toxic that is. if you have to sit down with a child and explain the joke and you find yourself being like i don't want to repeat any of this, probably a problem. you know, do you want to convey the idea -- >> do you agree with that that the overall message wasn't that anti-semitism is wrong? it's that publically saying these things is wrong. >> this is the problem with racism, anti-semitism, these isms in general. it forces you to spend time
3:24 am
talking about it instead of doing the work you are meant to do. i'm not meant to try to excuse, understand what dave chappelle is doing as an artist. i think what i'm trying to reckon with, as a person who watches politics play out in the culture is, why are we laughing? and when is it okay to be like i don't want to laugh at that without being called a bummer, wet blanket, whatever, politically correct. it's okay for some of us to say that's not funny. >> the interesting thing -- i know we have to run. there's a difference, folks will say, we did this the last time he did snl. the difference between social commentary and comedy, but the thing is he comes wrapped in -- as a comedian. >> it's a dance a lot of comedians play, especially the last few years when they've been posing as news anchors. >> thank you. >> thanks for having me.

3:30 am
democrat josh shapiro, a few hours before he acknowledged his defeat, dana bash asked josh shapiro about how long it was taking him. >> who cares if he calls, right. he doesn't get to pick the winner, the people pick the winner. >> had he won, mastriano would have gained the power to appointment the state's election. he also questioned pennsylvania's election security. >> voting integrity, wow. oh my goodness. i've seen better elections in afghanistan, not hiypehyperbole. >> he's one of a number of election deniers and questioners who in key battleground states were rejected by voters. that includes several candidates that ran for post with power in their states, nominees for
3:31 am
senate, governor, and secretary of state, like in arizona with mark finchem. >> ladies and gentlemen, we know it and they know it. donald trump won. >> president trump and i lost an election in 2020 because of a rigged election. i been working since november 4, 2020 to expose what happened. and what i found out is horrifying. and when i'm secretary of state of nevada we're going to fix it. >> that's jim marchant of nevada, he heads the america first secretary of state coalition, which was a group of election deniers trying to get state election posts. with his loss, all but one of those america first candidates were defeated. >> if you have election deniers serving as your governor, as your senator, as your secretary of state, as your attorney general, then democracy as we
3:32 am
know it may not survive in arizona. that's not an exaggeration. that is a fact. >> in arizona the governor's race this morning is still too close to call, but right now, democrat katie hobbes is leading kari lake. kari lake's path to victory is growing more challenging with the batches that came in recent days. lake put false claims of the 2020 election at the heart of her campaign. >> i consider someone's vote their voice. i think of it as a sacred vote and it's trampled the way we run our elections in arizona. i've been sounding the alarm for two years. >> lake has repeatedly said she would not have certified president biden's win in arizona in 2020. if she wins, she would be in a position to do more than just talk on television about reversing the election. a really surprising victory for democrats in a washington state district that few saw
3:33 am
going blue, marie gluesenkamp perez, flipped a district that has been voting red more than ten years and one that former president trump won by more than four points two years ago. she succeeds jamie herera butler because she was one of ten house republicans who voted to impeachment president trump after the insurrection. she was believed to win until she became a target of trump. kent has been outspoken about his support of maga policies and far right figures like representatives marjorie taylor greene and paul gosar. also down played the january 6th attack and pushed conspiracy theories about the coronavirus vaccine. here's what he said at a debate in september. >> we can never allow our
3:34 am
economy to be locked down again like the dictates of our leaders who were acting like tyrants. never again government mandated lockdowns. never again government mandated vaccines. that can never happen. we need to bring everyone who lost their job because of a vaccine mandate bring them back with full pay. bring back the service members kicked out for refusing to take the experimental vaccine. >> congresswoman elect, marie gluesenkamp perez joins us now. good morning. >> good morning. so excited to be here. >> a lot of stunned, i think, journalists, too. "the seattle times" called your win, quote, perhaps the most stunning political upset in the country this year. was it that stunning to you? >> you know, i know my district. i know that we don't believe in these crazy ideas that kent is
3:35 am
esp espousing. we don't want to defund the fbi, feel we should have a national abortion. joe kent was talking about banning all immigration to re-establish a white majority. i don't know anybody who believes that's the right course for america right now. >> what you campaigned on throughout was that you are not a quote typical candidate for congress. a lot of people say that when they're running. and then when they get in that building they change. >> she owns an auto body shop. >> i know. >> that's not typical. >> that's awesome. >> tell us what that means in terms of how you will legislate. how will you be different? >> your priorities are different. the way you live. i live on a gravel road, get my water from a well, internet from a radio tower. that changes the way you look at the world. i'm one of the working moms that can't find day care. i brought my baby to work at the auto shop. that changes who you are, your priorities.
3:36 am
i think we need to start electing people that look like america. people that are worried about putting gas in the tank, worried about their grocery bill. that changes how you look at bills. >> for sure. >> the race was still pretty close, though, congresswoman-elect. that's a question i'm walking away from this with, given how close it was, you talked about rejecting election deniers, extr extremists, what is your takeaway from that vote total and where, and the people who did vote for your opponent, joe kent? >> i think that a lot of folks do the r, d analysis. we were endorsed by so many moderate republicans and independents and democrats. and i'm so proud of building that coalition. i think that's the direction that our politics needs to move more general. we're not just looking at the r and d, we're looking at whose life looks like my life.
3:37 am
that's how we change politics. i'm not coming to congress to be a cheer leader for any political party i'm here to be an advocate for my district. i'm thrilled to have that honor, that opportunity to do that work. >> are you surprised that joe kent has not conceded the election? last i checked he's not conceded? >> i am not. he said repeatedly he will honor the votes of the election. we live in an all vote by mail state so it's going to take some time. but at this point the numbers are clear, there's not a path. so i look forward to a smooth transition when he does concede. >> do you think -- democrats have gotten a lot of guff for not relating to the working class folks. you are a democrat. ed up you would like to see more bipartisan, i don't want to put words in your mouth but stop looking at the r and ds. but do you think this is time for the democrats to take back
3:38 am
that narrative or if you believe it's true to relate to working class folks? >> yeah. people that work in the trades, we're a dying breed. democrats have to stop explaining things to rural people and people who work in the trades and start listening. because we know things that other folks might not know. we feel overlooked and not listened to so often. it's time for democrats to really reevaluate how they are operating in these spaces. >> can i ask how old your kids are or child? >> i have a 15 month old at home with my husband who's winning dad of the year right now. >> it's a lot. i was going to say are they proud? they'll be proud when they can talk. >> i'm so fortunate to have the community support to do this because it did take a grass roots effort to do this. >> if i lived closer to d.c. i'd bring my old station wagon.

and anybody who wants to donate to charity can put their money to work. i feel you have to do things at two time skills, you have to work on the urgent, here and now, the immediate. and the long term. so the bezos earth fund is a ten-year commitment to work on these really big problems that we have on sustainability, conservation, and restoration, the day one fund where we work on the here and now, the urgent food security, homelessness, transient homelessness. there's all kinds of important problems in that arena too. >> talk to me about this team that you two have built together. >> that's a good word. we're really great teammates. we also have a lot of fun together. and we love each other. >> it's true. >> i love how we work together. we look at each other, we're the team. >> it's easy. we bring each other energy. we respect each other. so it's fun to work together. >> let's bring in chloe who sat
3:47 am
down with the two of them. it's just -- it goes without saying it is so hard to get time with them. so the fact that you're the one they chose to sit down with says a lot. >> it's the first time we heard from them together in four years. the first time ever since they first came out as a couple in 2019. and you know, he doesn't really give sitdown interviews. it was pegged to giving dolly parton this $100 million grant friday night at a private event at his home. he gave one to van jones from cnn. but we did talk about potentially buying the commanders, and lauren wanting to go to space with an all female crew. this was a wide ranging interview at their home in d.c. that lasted over 20 minutes. >> one of the wealthiest men, most powerful men in the world because of what he built with amazon and other entities. he has been fretting about the
3:48 am
economy. he's spoken out and clashed with the white house on what he believes are the real issues. >> he rescently tweeted baton down the hatches so i wanted to know his take on the recession, are we in one? >> we are in some tough economic times. some people say perhaps we're already in a recession. do you think we're in one and what is your advice for small business owners? >> i don't know whether we're technically in a recession, economists argue over that and they have definitions. i can tell you the economy does not look great. things are slowing down, seeing layoffs in many sectors of the economy people are slowing down. the probabilities say if we're not in a recession right now we're likely to be in one very soon. so my advice to people, whether they're small business owners or -- is take some risk off the table.
3:49 am
if you were going to make a purchase, maybe slow down that purchase a little bit, keep some dry powder on hand and wait a bit and see how -- try to reduce some risk in your business or your life. >> you tweeted baton down the hatches. >> um-hum. >> that's what you mean by that? >> that's what i mean. if you're an individual and thinking about buying a large screen tv, maybe slow that down, keep that cash. same with a refrigerator or new car. take some risk off the table. a small business, delay capital purchases, do you need the new piece of equipment? have cash on hand. just a little bit of risk reduction could make the difference for that small business if we get into more serious economic problems. you have to play the probabilities a little bit. >> any idea what you're hearing or with your expertise how long the recession could last? >> i don't think the most experienced economists in the world can answer that question. it's a challenging thing to try to estimate.
3:50 am
you have to try and be reasonable about it, take as much risk off the table as you can for yourself. hope for the best, but prepare for the worst. >> you heard jeff bezos right there say if you're looking to make some big purchases to maybe think twice about it for right now. to keep some powder on hand he was saying. and we're in the midst of a tech recession with the layoffs in the industry, and it's a really uncertain time and, you know, we also got into other things like i said, in space, what it looks like on their saturday night, how they fight over what movies to watch. later in the day we'll show you some more. >> it was interesting you were talking about the buzz around him. i saw him and lauren at the gallery unveiling, you have all these people in the room he's at the top of the celebrity ceos, he's a founder, who was in the room, jose andre, venus williams, serena williams, dr. anthony fauci, clive davis.

said, hey, like he has a knife and he told me that he was threatening to stab people we need to say something. >> so that plane was forced to make an emergency landing in atlanta. we want to go to pete mon tean joining us from reagan national airport. what happened here? >> reporter: the incident happened on the frontier airlines flight. but the big question is how did the box cutters get through security at tsa. this incident i'm told is kicked up to the highest levels of the agency. and the tsa is admitting big failures here. it says that it's reviewing the tape from the cincinnati northern kentucky airlines. he came through with a temporary license and two backpacks. the equipment did not catch the box cutters and then the
