good friday morning, everyone. i'm bianna golodryga. >> i'm jim sciutto. good economic news. the new jobs reports just in to cnn. they show the u.s. economy added some 263,000 jobs in november. that above forecast. and defying aggressive rate hike action from the federal reserve to try to cool the economy. also bring down decades high inflation. the unemployment rate held steady at 3.7%. >> christine romans joins us now. christine, in any other circumstance, this would be a

really hot economy and a positive report. that having been said, the hope is for this economy to cool a little bit. what do you make of this? >> it's when good news isn't quite so good. any other period of type, this would be blockbuster shout from the rooftops the u.s. economy is so strong here and the job market, but the white house, the fed, wall street, main street even wanted to see this cool so a strong job market doesn't spin off inflation that's harder to crack. 263,000 jobs added and the month before was revised higher. 3.7% unemployment rate. close to the band that is near a 50-year low. where there's good news, you see that trend there. you are seeing a slight cooling month after month. these numbers are going in the right direction, but still from a very strong level here. and wages grew 5.1%, more than 5%. a lot of people had expected those wages to start cooling down. the bottom line here is the economy is trying to transition

occupant of this covid crash and get to a more normal level, but the job market is just still strong. third quarter, the economy grew 2.9%. you're seeing signs of inflation starting to cool, but the ko consumer is still driving things forward. what i learned about the economy this week is it is showing a really robust strength here at a time when the fed is trying to slow it down so inflation isn't a permanent problem. >> we're expecting another rate hike later this month. christine romans, we'll take this good news. a really strong jobs report. >> gas prices are falling across the country. also good news here. today's average hitting $3.45 a gallon, finally returning below where prices where when russia invaded ukraine in january. it's down 30 cents from last month. >> it was above $5 earlier this summer. pete muntean is outside a gas station in alexandria, virginia.

some states have dipped below $3 a gallon. what's driving them down? >> well, the recession fears are the biggest driver right now, jim. remember, it's a global market, and oil is so sensitive to so many things. what's so interesting here is $3.45, the national average, think back to where we were on february 24th. $3.54. we're now below what we saw when russia invaded ukraine and it causes these gas prices to go up and up and up. we're hearing now from analysts is that things are really starting to stabilize. we have seen a 13 cent drop in just the last week. there is some uncertainty still. there are covid fears and lockdowns in china, concerns about recession will do. we're not totally out of the woods yet, although the prices are going down. that's good news for consumers. we're hearing from some analysts who say we may see prices go down further by the end of the

year. patrick de haan of gasbuddy said we could see the price down to $3.29, even $3.20. remember where we were back on june 14th, $5.01. that was the all-time high average for a gallon of regular gas, according to aaa. we have gone down about $1.50 since, down 30% in total. incredible we're standing here now considering we were here not that long ago talking about those highs. >> a major concern for so many americans. this is welcome news for those now heading out for the holiday season. pete muntean, thank you. well, this morning, former president trump's legal team is facing a new deadline after the 11th u.s. circuit court halted a third party review of documents seized from his mar-a-lago home. the court gave trump's team seven days to respond. >> we'll see if this speeds up the overall case. senior legal affairs correspondent paula reed joins

us now. when you go back to this, it is a rebuke of judge aileen cannon's order appointing the special master, attracted all that attention a number of weeks ago. what does it mean for the broader investigation. >> a big win for jack smith because this removes an obstacle to one of his key investigations. this so-called special master, this was a third party appointed to go through the thousands of documents retrieved from mar-a-lago and determine what if anything was privileged. that process slows down the entire investigation. and we had a pretty good idea that this wasn't going to go well for the former president. based on the oral arguments. i was down there in atlanta, and sometimes it's hard to tell which way a panel is leaning but these were three gop appointed judges. two appointed by trump himself. it was clear from the questions they were asking, they were concerned about the idea that someone could just come in and interfere with an investigation like this, especially in a case where a warrant has not been found to be invalid. now, the interesting to see, now

that they have struck out with these three judges if trump's legal team decides to appeal. i think most legal experts say it's unlikely they would ultimately prevail, but the former president has very effectively used delay as a strategy and appeal would give him more time. >> even if he expects to lose, time is on his side. the other development is now testimony from former white house counsel pap cipollone and deputy patrick philbin, they're going to testify. >> in addition to using delay, stonewalling is another technique he's used for decades. in the context of these investigations, he's tried to very liberally and creatively apply some of his privileges, be it attorney/client privilege or executive privilege. these two lawyers had previously testified before the grand jury, but there were questions they wouldn't answer, citing privilege. now a judge has thrown that out. we do expect that will be appealed. and look, it was a bad day for the former president in court. but as we have seen over the past few years he can have some bad days, right, but in the long

arc of these investigations, things still tend to fall his way. but he's no longer president, and even former trump officials will tell you the facts particularly in the mar-a-lago investigation are concerning for his legal team. >> as you note, in a lot of these cases, trump appointed judges who are deciding against him. joining us to discuss, elliot williams and kirsten powers. >> lots of developments as always in the legal sphere. i want to drill down on the one about pat cipollone and patrick philbin having to testify. the court rejecting trump's arguments, a broad executive privilege and attorney/client privilege claim there. these guys know what the president told them in those crucial moments in the attempts to overturn the election. how impactful do you think their testimony might be? >> i think very. jim, as former lawyers and senior white house staffers, these two individuals are entitled to lots of privileges potentially based on their

relationship and the jobs they had. so certainly, there was an open question as to whether any statements they would have made would have been protected. look, a court has looked at it and said you can't just have a blanket privilege merely by having worked in the white house. by virtue of those jobs, they would have been privy to any number of very sensitive matters that could be quite useful to this investigation. so certainly you don't get the sense that if these two come in that they'll stonewall or be quite difficult as witnesses, but they're very consequential folk. there this decision coupled with the 11th circuit court's decision to halt the special master reviewing the documents and rebuking the federal judge, aileen cannon, definitely a legal setback to say the least for the former president. that having been said, what does it mean for him politically in terms of his bid for re-election? >> you know, i tend to think

that these things are first of all kind of baked in. at this point, if you aren't aware of what the predhas done in terms of january 6th, the former president, in terms of january 6th, in terms of taking these documents, you know, i guess you're just not following the news at all. and so it's probably baked in for his very, very core supporters. you know, the question is, how does it affect people who are more in the middle, who, you know, aren't that enthusiastic about him in the first place? it's just another thing against him, but like i said, they already know this is happening, and to a certain extent, for people who really like donald trump, he can actually use this to his benefit because it's like, it's his whole schtick, right? he's always being persecuted and that he's always being mistreated and that's sort of part of his constant story. i mean, he's just sent a video

to a group of people who were january 6th rioters who are claiming they're being persecuted by the legal system. so we can see very much where he's aligning himself and he's continuing with this kind of grievance politics. >> the other development, of course, the january 6th committee meeting today, whether to make criminal referrals and they have a couple categories to decide on. one, on the five republican lawmakers who refuse to cooperate with their subpoenas. that, by the way, includes the possible future speaker of the house, kevin mccarthy, also, criminal referral of trump. doj has its own investigation. is it january 6th committee criminal referral, does that carry weight? >> no, it doesn't. look, there are two things that can be true. number one, it's a very powerful, important, symbolic step for congress to make a criminal referral of somebody they think has broken the law, but also it doesn't matter to the justice department. legally, it's a step the justice

department doesn't have to rely on. our country takes actions all the time that are symbolic but very important. think about every inauguration, nothing in the constitution says there has to be a big party on the steps of the capitol with all of the former presidents and members of congress, but it's an important symbol that people around the world see. it's sort of the same thing and this would be issuing criminal referrals would be congress flexing its muscles as a co equal branch of government, but the justice department doesn't need to consider it, and they have already charged folks without referrals from congress. >> this comes as we're expecting by the end of the year to get the january 6th committee's final report. there's been a bit of inside politics and grievances internally playing out the last few weeks. overall, though, they have been pretty much in lockstep in this bipartisan committee, we should note. what are you looking for to stand out and what will you be

watching the most in this final report? >> well, i mean, what's happening is basically, you have liz cheney very much driving the idea that this should be completely focused on donald trump, almost like a legal brief. and you have other people who are saying we need to focus on donald trump but we also need to focus on in the future, the things that are happening that could potentially cause this to happen again in the future, like talking about militia or dark money or things like that. that has to be reconciled, but one of the problems for them is they have this deadline hanging over them. they have to get it done because the republicans are about to take over congress and they're going to lose their funding. there's not a lot of time to hash this out, and i guess if i had to put my money on somebody, it's probably liz cheney, but yeah, it will be interesting to see whether or not this is something that's really focused on making the case against donald trump or if it's a broader, you know, a broader

report that's taking a more holistic look at the problem. >> of course, kevin mccarthy has already promised once they take control, republicans take control of the house, they will launch an investigation into the january 6th committee's investigation. so politics as usual there. elliot williams, kirsten powers, thank you. well, this afternoon, president biden heads to boston, and a visit with the prince of wales is on the agenda. details on that trip straight ahead. plus, elon musk suspends kanye west's twitter account yet again after this bizarre appearance where he made a series of hateful comments praising hitler and anti-semitic comments. there's news that another deal west has in the works is also canceled. also ahead, team usa's captain, christian pulissic is on track to play tomorrow. we're going to speak live with a major soccer player who also played on the men's u.s. team, about the big world cup match against the netherlands.

this morning, the white house is applauding the supreme court's decision to hear oral arguments on president biden's student loan forgiveness program. that plan would offer up to $20,000 of debt relief to borrowers. >> and about 26 million americans had already applied before it was suspended nearly two weeks ago. a decision in the case is expected by june 2023, which would coincide with when payments are now set to resume. today is the last day of early voting in georgia before tuesday's senate runoff and nearly 1.5 million ballots have been cast. that's so far. clearly, people like the early voting. new cnn polling out today shows an advantage for the democratic candidate, senator raphael warnock. 52% of likely voters say they're supporting warnock. 48% say they're supporting the republican candidate, herschel

walker. >> and yesterday, former president barack obama made a second visit to atlanta to stump with warnock. cnn's dianne gallagher is in atlanta at the polling center. how are the lines looking where you are right now? >> yeah, so exactly -- we're looking about an hour wait at this particular location. voting rights groups said they were concerned people will see excessively long lines on this final day of early voting here in georgia. look, we're on this compressed four-week timeframe for this runoff period because of that new law, so there were only five mandatory state-wide days of early voting. georgia has been breaking single day turnout records this week, but right now, even with that nearly 1.5 million voters, they're not on pace to meet the number of the voters that voted early in the 2021 runoff, and that's likely because of that compressed timeframe. now, look, you mentioned that

polling that cnn did that said 48% of those likely supporters supported herschel walker, but only 27% of those voters found him to be well qualified. that's something the warnock campaign has hitched a lot of their attacks on, saying he's not ready for the job, and former president obama last night had some jokes on his trip to atlanta. >> since the last time i was here, mr. walker has been talking about issues that are of great poimportance to the peopl of georgia, like whether it's better to be a vampire or a werewolf. this is a debate that i must confess i once had myself, when i was 7. >> now, herschel walker, the

republican, his campaign has instead said that senator warnock trying to tie him to joe biden unpopular policies for some voters here in the state of georgia. walker held a rally last night with senator lindsey graham in woodstock, georgia. one more thing, it was actually codified into law, the new law that compressed the runoff period for the first time here in jora, if you're in line when the polls close today, you can stay in line and get your vote counted. >> every last vote counts. dianne gallagher, thanks so much. >> in just a few short hours, president biden will depart the white house for boston where he'll meet with william, the prince of wales. >> the meeting will take place at the jfk library and museum directly after biden will participate in a brothers of electrical workers phone bank. for more on the president's plans today including the royal

chapter, mj lee is at the white house. he's meeting with the royals but the trip also has something to do with the runoff in georgia. >> yeah, the royals, union workers and a fund-raiser. a pretty diverse day for the president. he's going to leave for boston in just a couple hours. the white house did just announce scheduling update. he's going to speak in the next hour. we'll see him signing this bill that passed on capitol hill this week to avert a rail strike. this, of course, was a big priority for the white house economically speaking. we should also hear him address the new jobs report that just came out. but you're right. when he gets to boston his first stop is going to be the jfk library where he's going to meet with the prince of wales. we're told the princess of wales will not be participating in this meeting. but the couple is in town and in the country to promote a big climate change initiative. that, of course, is a big issue of priority for the president. and then his second stop is a phone bank with union workers followed by in the evening a

dscc fund-raiser where the funds are going to go toward supporting raphael warnock. this, of course, is the big runoff race in georgia that we have been talking so much about that is going to take place next tuesday. you know, the white house and democrats have been very happy about the midterm election results and the fact that democrats are going to be keeping the senate, but they also say that there's a huge difference between 51 seats and 50, and they want to get to that 51. they know that's going to make a big difference politically, so that's something that the white house is keeping a very close eye on heading into next week. >> i couldn't take my eyes off that little boy meeting the royals there in his full british outfit and the bear skin hat. quite a moment. >> really cute, right? mj, thank you. we'll come back to you when the president does sign that legislation averting a rail strike later this morning. thank you. well, still ahead, a new study shows the stunning impact that the pandemic has had on teenagers' brains. how the stress and anxiety likely aged their brains faster than usual.

inciting violence. cnn could not confirm which specific tweet prompted the suspension, nor will we show the hateful post of an altered image of a swastika wrapped inside the star of david. musk's response, i tried my best. despite that, he again violated our rule against incitement to violence. account will be suspended. cnn senior media reporter oliver darcy is following all this. you can sense the disgust in my voice here, talking about this once again. because i'm afraid that we'll normalize this conversation which in 2022 is ridiculous we're even having, but yet again, this rapper, kanye, has a lost of followers. what does it mean to have this account suspended? he's been here before, and can we expect it to be reinstated? >> he has 35 million followers or had 35 million followers, i should say, on twitter. when he was spewing this anti-semitism on his platform. he's been locked out before, and elon musk did reinstate him after he took over the platform

where he was reinstated under elon musk's purview, and musk seemed to give him a chance. he actually said this, he wanted to give kanye west this chance, but he was posting the most vile things on the platform. he went on alex jones' platform on infowars and flat out said he admired adolf hitler. >> with nick fuentes. >> who is a white supremacist. i think now you're seeing people like elon musk and alex jones, even they are now having to push back against these anti-semitism from kanye west. really sad. >> what does it say about the fact that someone like alex jones is having to sort of throw him a life line, listen, you're not as bad as the nazis to have kanye say, no, nazis did great things. >> it's really unbelievable. you're watching alex jones look almost like the reasonable person in the room. think about how, you know, how far out there you have to go to end up in that position. and what's also remarkable is,

you know, kanye west for a few moments was celebrated in the republican party. you remember, he went on tucker carlson's program and tucker carlson looks at the audience and the camera and said, does this sound like a crazy person to you, no? >> there was a house gop tweet forever. >> it said kanye, elon, and trump. they finally deleted that tweet yesterday after he went on this anti-semitic rant on infowars. it really shows, you know, kanye's progression from music icon to gop star and now to anti-semite and nazi lover. >> there is no bottom. he's proven there isn't. and if he's reinstated, he'll likely do the same thing. all of it has to be condemned. oliver, thank you for coming on. jim. >> new research suggests the impact of pandemic stress on teenagers. aged their brains faster than normal. listen to this, the new study is among the first to look at physical changes in teens' brains brought on by stress and

anxiety. we all saw this stress in action. this would be a remarkable result. >> yeah, we saw it first-hand. it's quite something else to see it playing out in their brains over that period of time. let's bring in cnn chief medical correspondent, dr. sanjay gupta for more. tell us more about this study. what were researchers specifically looking for here? >> well, i got a first of all say, just like you, i have three teenagers at home. a lot of people watching, this is very personal. you know, sort of seeing what has happened to them overall in terms of mental health. but now getting a look inside their brains specifically. we know rates of anxiety and depression have been going up. these internalizing symptoms as they're referred to, social isolation, loneliness, some of that was going on before the pandemic, but there seems to have been this significant acceleration of these symptoms and now we know as you point out, changes in the brain as

well. i want to show you what some of the changes were. what was happening is there was a study that was ongoing even before the pandemic, they were imaging adolescent brains from time to time. then when the pandemic happens, they continued the study. they had brains images before the pandemic and in the pandemic. what they saw was pretty stunning. if you look at the brain overall the cortex, which is sort of the bark-like outer layer of the brain, that was greatly thinned in these children who in the first year of the pandemic. so a thinning of this area. that's typically associated with executive judgment, reasoning, things like that. but also if you look inside the brain, areas over here which are typically responsible for regulating emotions, the amygdala, those had aged quickly as well. so these were areas of the brain that over time do change in all of us. but at that young age, there would seem to be, again, this acceleration of that aging during that first year of the pandemic when the study was conducted.

>> a couple question. what are the consequences for young people with aging brains and is any of this reversible over time? >> you know, jim, with regard to the first question, the most honest answer is we don't know. we are dealing with something that doesn't really have precedent here. we have gone through significant cataclysmic events before, even a big pandemic back 100 years ago, but we didn't have mri technology to look inside brains at that point. whether this is now a trajectory that's going to happen to these children's brains over their lifetime or whether or not it can sort of correct over time, we don't know. that's going to be a big question. consequence wise, what it seemed to be most associated with are again these internalizing symptoms, anxiety, depression, social isolation, loneliness. not so much externalizing symptoms, violence, anger, rule breaking, and things like that. that's what we know so far in terms of consequences, but long term, a little harder to say.

>> yeah, look for help, right? for young people and adults. >> talk to your kids. >> yes. >> dr. gupta, thanks so much. alarming to hear. we'll keep talking about this to see how we can help parents handle. >> you got it. thank you. still ahead, something good to talk about. a win for team usa ahead of saturday's big match against the netherlands. star player christian pulisic who scored that goal you're seeing there, despite really getting hurt as he did it, he's on track to play. that's good news. up next, we're going to be joined by the men's team, on what the team has to do tomorrow. can they pull it off? we'll find out.

>> we're going to see him on the training field today. what i think is it looks pretty good, but we have to see him today on the pitch to get confirmation of that. >> our next guest knows a thing or two about big games like this. alejandro bedoya played for the u.s. at the 2014 fifa world cup. he's currently serving as the captain of the philadelphia union in the mls. alejandro, good to have you on this morning. >> good morning. thanks for having me on. >> so i saw alexi lalas, also former u.s. men's national team player, yesterday, when he saw pulisic interviewed yesterday, the way he was talking about the game, he's like, that guy is going to play tomorrow. there's no question he's going to suit up there. i wonder, do you have any doubts about whether he's going to be on the field or is it still an open question? >> i do not have any doubts about him being available for tomorrow's game. in the press conference, he looked in a good mood and seeing the comments there, that he looks pretty good, i mean, if there was doubt, i don't think

he would have used those terms. i have no doubts he's going to be playing. >> we also heard pulisic say his big moment at this world cup has not come yet in his opinion. obviously, the question was referencing that amazing goal against iran. and stemming from that, let's go from what you saw on the field versus iran, because you know those last few minutes were nail biting. it was sheer luck that the u.s. was able to avoid and stave off iran scoring again. so going into this weekend, into tomorrow's game, what in your opinion either defensively or offensively do you think the u.s. team needs to focus on, perhaps even tweak going into this game? >> yeah, absolutely. i was actually in a local sports bar in new york city watching the game, and those last 10, 15 minutes wer varinervy, very tense. i hope it doesn't come down to that. i think offensively, we still struggle to score goals. i think it's going to take more than one goal to beat a team

like netherlands, so hopefully, we're doing a good job of creating chances, of setting ourselves up for good opportunities. we just haven't been able to convert them. and defensively, it's just remaining solid. we haven't allowed a goal from open play. the only goal came off a penalty kick. as long as we continue to stay solid in the back, the defense is playing well, we have a good shot stopper in the back and make better use of our chances because i think we need more than one goal. >> let me ask you, given they are underdogs here, netherlands is number eight team in the world and has played well in the tournament. their striker, they have some real threats up front. is there a way to read that as something of an advantage for the u.s. to be an underdog here? because they got nothing to lose here, right? it's win or go home. can they play a bit more aggressively and manufacture those chances and take risks to finish those chances? >> yeah, i think that the title of underdog suits us, suits our team.

i think they'll go in there a little less pressure, less nervous, and nothing to lose mentality, and they'll play more on the transition, which i think allows them to play a little better. because they do have guys that can threaten behind as you see timothy waya has been with his speed, has been able to get behind guys and attack with his technical ability. christian pulisic, you saw his goal, it came off a great play and to be able to get towards the goal to finish that off. i think it's harder for us to break teams down. we just haven't been able to have that key number nine striker up top that can finish chances, so i think playing on a counter in transition moments, if netherlands likes to keep the ball in transition, if we're going to bait them into play with tyler adams reading plays and turning them over and hitting on the counter, that suits us. >> what's so exciting about the world cup are all of the surprises. that initial loss for argentina

versus saudi arabia. they're back in it. they won their last game, and mess messi is still in it. what we saw yesterday with japan stunning spain and forcing germany, even though they score four games, were forced out of the world cup. was that second controversial goal from japan in your view in or out? >> oh, initially, obviously, i definitely thought it was out for sure. but i think like everybody else, i have had like geometry lessons on social media, on the internet, talking about spherical shapes and angles and things like that. fifa and the world cup is testing out a lot of new technology, and i'm sure i guess it's clear and conclusive it was in. but i definitely thought it was out. i think the world cup, it's been very entertaining. soccer in general is very unpredictable and this world cup is no different. >> no question. a lot of teams in the final 16

not expected. a lot of teams you were sure, like germany, are not there. alejandro bedoya, great to have you on. >> let's go, usa. >> let's go, yay, tomorrow. >> still ahead, protests erupting in china. here a clash as police try to take covid positive students to quarantine. up next, how authorities in china are using phone data to track protesters. oh, i can tell business is going through the “woof”. bubut seriously we need a reliable way to help keep everyone connecected frfrom wherever we go. well at atat&t we'll help you find the right wireless plan for you. so, you can stay connected to all your driverss and stores on america's most reliable 5g network. that sounds just paw-fect. terrier-iffic i labra-dore you round of a-paws at&t 5g is fast, reliable and secure for your business. 0 to 60 in under 4 seconds.

china in the wake of china's

strict no covid policy. >> they have not stopped there. these are chinese authorities in has plat suits forcibly dragging a man from his own home after he allegedly refused to go to quarantine. he was identified as having had a close contact with a covid patient. imagine this in your own home. ivan watson is live in hong kong. so, ivan, these flared up on the weekend. china cracked down hard. big police presence but, they have not disappeared and we're seeing incidents like what we just showed our viewers here. do we have a sense of how broad this is and how we're learning how china is responding. >> right. le well there are these kind of examples of popular frustration and discontent with the covid restrictions that are popping up. we found three different videos from three different cities of just ordinary residents, we're

not talking about thousands of people, but maybe a couple of dozen breaking down the barriers that authorities put around their communities to wall them off from the outside world. when there is concern that there could be a covid pocket there. that just hints that people are saying enough is enough and they're tired of the arbitrary kind of restrictions on their day-to-day life. where you get stuck in your apartment for potentially months at a time. you have to ration food and your kids can go to school. so while that is happening, we've seen a crackdown on some of the protests of last weekend in shanghai and beijing with some ominous anecdotes. cnn spoke with one protester who had been at a protest in beijing who was called up days later by a police officer, we've listened to a recording of the conversation, where the police officer said we know you were there, because we detected your phone in that area. cox to the police station for

questioning. and that fits with another pattern we've seen in shanghai, anecdotal testimony where police were stopping pedestrians in the vicinity of previous protests, demanding to see phones, demanding to see if people had apps that could help them circumvent the great fire wall. now the chinese government has changed its tune, jim and bianna. they're not scrapping zero covid but they are conceding that they're making some changes to it to soften the restrictions. in the meantime, the chinese economy continues to suffer costs, formula 1 just announced that they're not going to hold the 2023 china grand prix because of difficulties over covid. >> wow. >> back to you guys. >> and we're seeing the chinese police state in action. thank you so much. new just today, the ukraine military said that russia is using dummy missiles fitted with

nonexplosive war heads. why? it is an effort to exhaust ukraine air defenses as they try to shoot them down and flood the zone. this is a fragment of the kh-55 missile which is nuclear capable that the ukraine government put on display. >> matthew chance joins us live from kyiv. what are we learning about these warheads and are there any weight to the possible withdrawals here? >> reporter: well, it is an interesting development, isn't it? the idea that the ukrainians are now saying that the russians who have been bombarding various infrastructure installations across the country are using dummy missiles, cruise missiles from the soviet era, the kh-55s that are armed with a nuclear warhead. those have been taken off and fired with no explosive at all. the sheer kinetic impact and the fuel on board the cruise

missiles is what is causing the damage. and of course there are a couple of reasons for that. the ukrainians say the main reason is to exhaust the anti-aircraft systems inside of ukraine so they shoot down missiles that aren't going to cause that much damage any way. but i think you could read more into it as well. it suggests, didn't it, that the russians are running out of conventional warheads that they could strike across the country, with so many attacks taking place. that could be a factor. but nonetheless, interesting factors in this interesting bombardment on the part of russia on ukraine. >> good point about potential shortages. matthew chance there in kyiv. keep you and your team safe. thank you so much. and for all of you watches, please stay with us. we'll be right back. support yourur immune system with a potent blend of nutrients and emerge your best every day with emergrgen-c hey, it's ryan reynonolds, owner of mint mobile.
