6:00 am
what a busy show. and i just want to say to my home state, people will be waking up now, the sun is coming up, lots of devastation, so we are thinking about you this morning. we're thinking about celie gallander and your coach and the newtown families as well on the 10th anniversary. appreciate you joining us. >> we are glad you're with us. see you back here tomorrow morning. "newsroom" is now. good morning, i'm jim
6:01 am
sciutto. >> i'm erica hill. following several stories at this hour. first a major threat, a weather threat across the u.s. and it makes its way across the country, more than a dozen states right now under winter weather warnings as the severe storm system is sparking more tornadoes, deadly tornadoes, and blizzard conditions. at least a dozen tornadoes hit the southeast yesterday, from oklahoma and louisiana, to mississippi. we know that at least two people were killed, a child and his mother in louisiana. >> also, overnight, on capitol hill, some good news, top congressional negotiators have announced a bipartisan framework to avoid a shutdown, crucially, not just for a week, perhaps for the long term a sweeping package that would fund the government for a full year. party leaders still must get everyone on board, from vote counting and more but major progress. the justice department is pushing forward with the investigation into attempts of attempting to overturn the 2020
6:02 am
election targets text messages by republican congressman scott perry and officials in three more battleground states in that election. >> we'll be following up on all of that. and we want to begin with the deadly line of storms fueling severe weather across much of this country. >> all of a sudden, by the time we got hunkered down here, the roof was gone, and they always say, did you hear a train coming, well, this was a big train coming through here. >> meteorologist derek van dam is in farmerville, louisiana, 20 people injured from the tornado there, chad myers, our cnn meteorologist live in the weather center, if i can begin with you first, i'm curious what you have seen in the aftermath of all of this. >> yes, jim, you know, it's heart breaking to see what we've witnessed on the grounds here, it must be so heartbreaking for the people who call this home, especially with the damage right before the holidays.
6:03 am
and you know, as meteorologists who have covered these natural disasters and events, it never ceases to amaze me the pure power of what the wind can do. look at this complete suv, fully flipped on its side, walking around this area, we're in the union villa apartment complex. this is in union parish. it's just north and west of monroe, louisiana. you can see just some of the damaged roofs behind me, some of the shrapnel on the ground, we saw children's toys earlier, that were strewn across the area, very typical of what we would expect to see with a powerful tornado that came through here last night at about 8:30. but i really think that this puts it into perspective for our viewers at home. this is just absolutely incredible. this is about 70 or 80 feet of pure iron and it was strewn across the parking lot here. and it has literally been lofted in the sky from the mobile home park that was destroyed, about
6:04 am
100 yards over my right, and i want to take you there, because i was able to walk around this vicinity a few minutes ago, get first-hand accounts of what happened, but i want you to see what people are grappling with this morning, as they wake up to the destruction that was left behind by this tornado. it really shows you that these people are going to have months, if not years of recovery ahead of them. the apartment complexes, or rather, the mobile homes were ripped off their foundations completely. we spoke to an eyewitness news who didn't want to go on camera, but told us that he came across individuals staggering, disoriented, coming out of the woods, next to the mobile home park, and their home had literally been lifted or lofted into the forest, along with them. so they rode out this terrifying experience. i mean if i can just give kind
6:05 am
of a guess at how heavy this is, this is several, several tons of pure iron, so that really gives you an idea of what people are dealing with. the police here are still calling this an active search and rescue scene. there are canines coming to the scene. obviously, this is typical with tornado and hurricane damage as well, after the fact, to see if there are indeed any survivors. although they do not believe that there are people here, they need to still check and assess the ground here. back to you. >> those pictures are just stunning, and the story of those folks who were lifted up with their home walking out of the woods, it is really something, chad, give us a sense, as we look at what has played out over the last couple of days there in the south, where are the severe weather spots you're keeping a really close eye on today? >> right now, mississippi is basically the ground zero for where the storms are spinning the most. there is another storm there to just, just in the southwestern
6:06 am
part of louisiana, it doesn't appear to have that much spin, but let me zoom in to show you what we have here. these are the storms and this red box here is the tornado watch that is going to be effect until 1:00 local time. there are the storms to the southeast of jackson, two tornado warnings going on right now, one just to the west of mount olive in mississippi and one just to, between forest and lake, right along the i-20 corridor. all of this is going to slide to the east, with very heavy rainfall, and flash flood warnings, in effect now for parts of louisiana. let me push this ahead. where does this go? well, by 2:00, you're going to get some big storms, baton rouge, all the way down toward new orleans as well. and then we move toward our biloxi, mississippi, and storms in atlanta by tonight, many of those will not rotate, but there will be a lot of lightning with some of these storms, and then it moves to the east, and then moves to the northeast. farther north, we start to see where the snow. is the snow is still coming down. it is still blowing 30 or 40 miles per hour in places.
6:07 am
visibility in fargo is a mile and a half. grand forks just a half a mile. there is duluth, at a quarter mile visibility, heavy snow, heavy wind. and there's your blizzard warnings still in effect, back out to the west. here is something new. we haven't been focusing on, this because we have been focused on the severe weather. there will be snow and ice in the northeast. ice storm warning in effect. and there will be significant icing here, along the appalachian mountains. ice, mountains, you don't want those two to go together for sure. and also some snow likely not in the big cities but certainly for upstate new york and into new england. >> lots to keep an eye on. thank you so much. now to capitol hill. some good news. this doesn't often happen. a pair of lawmakers say they have reached a bipartisan framework for a one-year spending deal. that's key, right? we've been talking the last few days how they might be able to manage a week. they got something, they got together on something bigger. they certainly did. cnn congressional correspondent lauren fox with us now with some of the details, and the threat
6:08 am
of a government shutdown, it does appear to be over. we know though we are not officially at the finish line, if you will. so what else can we expect? >> well, a couple of things had to happen on capitol hill. they are going to need a little bit of time to actually write this bill. yes, they have an agreement in principle. they have a framework. they have an outline. but it takes time to incorporate billions of dollars to every agency across the u.s. government. so they're going to need a couple of days to do that. we expect they are going to pass a short-term spending bill to give them a couple of extra days. that will move through the house tonight. we expect the senate will take it up before they leave town tomorrow at some point. after that, we expect that we will get some kind of bill legislation in the next few days. again, it is going to take a little bit of time and there could be some hiccups in that process. but after that, lawmakers are feeling very optimistic that they will be able to get this full year spending deal, make sure that they get some of their democratic priorities in this bill before they lose one lever
6:09 am
of congress, the house of representatives, to republicans, there is a lot of optimism that they're going to be able to get this all done, before the christmas holiday, and republican leaders have been warning, they don't want to be here the week after christmas. and they really needed to finish this up. we think that they're going to at this point. >> holidays are a powerful driving force on the hill. we've seen that before. and if that's what it takes, fine. lauren fox, thanks so much. joining us now to discuss, congressional reporter for axios, this could be a lovely gift for the country as we move into the holidays. is it your sense, too based on lawmakers that you're speaking with and folks, that that optimism extend, and this could in fact get done? >> it does. i think the fact that republicans and democrats, apart from house republican leaders have come to an agreement on the top line number for this omnibus
6:10 am
package, the longer full-term spending bill, i think they can get it done. of course, the time is ticking as lauren pointed out. they want to leave by december 22nd or december 23rd. we heard mitch mcconnell say yesterday that if they did not have a deal in place, and they were not able to pass the funding bill by the 22nd, he wants to send republican senators home. i do think though that now we know there is an agreement that can happen, i think leaders are willing to work a little, there is more leeway now, to get this finished. but as always, there are big bills and big measures to be passed up to the deadline, it is motivating but frustrating to a lot of people who want to wrap this up and get home for the year and enter the new year with a clean slate, so they can hand over, you know, change up the majority in the house, and also get to new business in the senate. >> there's an additional piece
6:11 am
of this legislation, chuck schumer has said that he intends, and that there appears to be agreement to include reform of the electoral counteract in this omnibus spending bill. and that's no small thing, right? because that would prevent what we saw in 2020, was attempts at least to have the vice president somehow magically wave his wand and overturn the electoral count, count of electoral votes from the states. is that likely to get in, based on your understanding at this point? >> i think there's a good chance, jim. i've talked to a lot of lawmakers about this. house republicans and kevin mccarthy have said, you know, he absolutely is against including this bill in a larger term spending bill. but as of now, because republicans do not have the house majority just yet, and that doesn't come until january, they could still get this done and we have seen susan colin, republican of maine, a key leader on the bill, saying they
6:12 am
need to pass this by the end of the year and before the 2024 election cycle starts to ramp up. they want to clarify the vice president's role in this and try to prevent, just as you said, another potential january 6th from happening, and so i think they will switch hands, and i think they do have the numbers in the senate and that is going to be where they need at least 10 republicans to give you that 60 number to get this passed. i think they have that. the working group has republicans in it who have supported this. and it may happen. >> when we look at what is playing out in terms of the speakership come january, it is fascinating not only how much is playing out publicly, that is something that republicans don't tend to do the same way that democrats do, but also, what we're hearing about the potential compromises on the part of kevin mccarthy, is he going to end up compromising his power if in fact he does win that speaker vote because of everything he's had to agree to behind the scenes? >> that's exactly kind of what we're looking at with this top
6:13 am
issue that he's really grappling with, which is whether to agree to a motion to vacate the chair. this is something that they had in other years and it ended up being defeated and it thrust john boehner from power. this is where some of the fiercest and most far right people in the house republican conference want them to do to secure their vote. at the same time, the majority, i'd say 90% of house republicans, do not want mckaurgty to cave on this. so you're right, he might get power, but then he could also really see that taken away quickly, if he doesn't reach something like this. it is not just republicans who can push for a motion to vacate the chair. democrats would have that power, too. so we know it is something kevin mccarthy doesn't want to agree to but he might need to in order to secure the couple extra votes that he does need to get to 218 to become speaker of the house. >> quite a process. always good to see you. thank you. >> thank you.
6:14 am
overnight, cnn learned the justice department is seeking access to scott perry's text messages, you may recall his phone was seized back in august. it is a significant development, given perry and other republican lawmakers were pushing chief of staff mark meadows in text messages to pursue baseless conspiracy theories as part of an effort of course to overturn the 2020 election. >> we're also learnsi, learning that the special coun set jack smith is looking at more subpoenas, and you have republicans and trump allies trying to push, including state officials to overturn results. senior crime and justice reporter is here, and there is a lot to digest because there are developments like this every day, subpoena, et cetera, can you help us understand the significance of these latest moves? >> every day, there's big news. what we're seeing here, what we're learning now, we're learning about what is happening
6:15 am
now, and also some of the things that have been happening over the course of a couple of months. so what is happening right now is that there are these grand jury subpoenas from special counsel jack smith's office, looking into the battleground states. we know and have confirmed that local election officials in nevada, new mexico, georgia, wisconsin, michigan, arizona, they have all received requests for information, for what appears to be a pretty comprehensive investigation, what they're being asked for is any communications that they may have had with a series of people close to donald trump, his campaign, private lawyers that were pushing this election fraud idea. so smith is gathering information there right now. and the other thing that we're learning is about representative scott perry, this congressman from pennsylvania, who is so integral in being one of the conduits, trying to get information around election security, possibly election fraud, what he believed were voting inconsistencies, and we were able to confirm yesterday
6:16 am
that after he publicly announced that his phone had been seized by the fbi, back in august, the justice department had a private court fight with him, confidentially, where they're trying to get access to the data on his phone. now, the reason that's important is because we've seen a couple of his text messages before to white house chief of staff mark meadows at the time, where he was really trying to get meadows to pass on a message to all kinds of people, and perry was asking for contacts. so the justice department does ultimately get access to the data on perry's phone. they could be finding a lot of connections where he was trying to make with people around the trump -- >> to be clear, one of the ballad states is georgia that the d.o.j. is looking into. that of course, there is a state investigation about interference there as well. >> absolutely. >> thank you very much. up next, the former ftx ceo denied bail in the bahamas, as federal prosecutors accuse him of one of the biggest financial frauds in american history. more details on how that scheme

6:22 am
a j the 30-year-old former crypto celebrity, currently faces eight criminal charges including wire fraud and conspiracy theory. >> this is a remarkable story. it involves not just him, but many big and small investors and savers, bankman-fried did not waive his right to an extradition hearing. his next court hearing will come on february 8th. cnn correspondent carla suarez is in the bahamas outside the congressional facility where bankman-fried is being held. i wonder how this hearing went and what this might mean for his extradition. is this a sign that he might fight extradition here in the u.s.? >> well, jim, good morning. the 30-year-old was really quite clear, quite adamant that he is going to fight extradition to the u.s. right after yesterday's hearing, where the judge denied him a bail, the 30-year-old was brought to this bahamas prison where he spent his first full night as an inmate and it is
6:23 am
expected he will be here through at least february when he has another court hearing that is scheduled for february 2nd around 10:00 in the morning. he did tell the judge that he is not only going to fight the extradition hearing but he also told the judge he is taking several medications for a number of health issues from insomnia to attention deficit disorder as well as depression. his attorney told the court that he's been battling some of these health issues for some time now. there have been some concern from his attorney that some of these prescription drugs would not be made available to him should he be remanded to prison. right after the judge's ruling, the judge told bankman-fried that the drugs would be made available to him. both his parents were also in court. they sat just behind me in a row, we're told they were able to spend a few minutes with him, along with their attorneys, and of course, the parents were now being told, they are also being
6:24 am
investigated for the possibility that they played some sort of role in the ftx company. guys? >> appreciate it. thank you. let's discuss, with former federal prosecutor, former deputy assistant attorney general, elliot williams. good to see you this morning. i have to say, i'm fascinated by the timing on all of this. the fact that he was talking for weeks, did plenty of interviews, talking about not doing anything wrong and going to testify before congress, an then boom, the day before that is set to happen, he gets arrested in the bahamas. you say federal officials knew that they had to essentially swoop in here, before that congressional testimony. why? why did they have to get ahead of it? >> because, you know, believe it or not, the branches of our government don't always get along with each other, and aren't always aligned, and you can see a scenario where members of congress were to put things on the record that might have jeopardized the prosecution.
6:25 am
think about it. imagine if a member of congress were going to blast mr. bankman-fried at the hearing and say the justice department hasn't moved quickly enough, you got to go to jail, right? if the justice department came out with charges the next day, it would appear that they were political in nature or spurred by congress. so this allows the justice department to sort of not have that taint of politics hanging over everything. and also, it would have given him an opportunity to explain himself away and that would probably have messed up the justice department's case a bit. >> and it is interesting, too, when we look at the dc angles, not necessarily the testimony, but the fact that the allegations are he violated federal campaign laws by donating more than $900,000 to candidates, nearly $39 million to outside groups, that makes him the sixth largest individual donor of the 2022 election cycle. i know a number of lawmakers have said they have given that money back, or they transferred
6:26 am
it to perhaps other organizations. what do you think, where do you think the investigation goes when it comes specifically to campaign finance? >> absolutely. look, any case like this, it shines a light on our system's campaign finance and brings to the public the fact that campaigns are funded often by very wealthy individuals. right? and i think members of congress wanted nothing to do with this, to suggest that they were somehow supportive of the aims and the goals of what mr. bankman-fried was engaged in here. look, we have this campaign finance system, you know, it has flaws, but it certainly work, but this is the bark side of it, right? and i think members didn't want any part of it. >> another reminder how the sausage is made it. is certainly not pretty most of the time. eight criminal charges including wire fraud, conspiracy, and these filings allege, that he has basically been doing this since the company's inception. could more charges be coming, do you think, and if so, for whom?
6:27 am
>> well, it appears, based on, if you read the indictment and the statements that are publicly available, but other individuals at ftx are cooperating with investigators here. so folks who might have been charged certainly. prosecutors can add additional securities charges, fraud charges, campaign fines charges, once that initial document is filed. there are billions of dollars at stake here in this case. the charges that they're filed now, they're already quite serious. >> and a whole lot of outrage. elliot, appreciate it. thank you. >> thank you. still ahead, the first on cnn, ukraine could soon receive u.s. patriot missile defense systems. what the biden administration is considering as it finalizes plans for what could be critical weapons for ukraine, still facing a brutal russian onslaught from the air.

6:33 am
this story first on cnn. the patriot missile defense system could soon be on its way from the u.s. to ukraine. the u.s. is working out plans ahead of final approval from the secretary of defense. this news comes along with photo evidence of ukraine's latest defense effort against russian missiles. officials say they have downed 13 drones out of two waves of attacks on the capital of kyiv, as part of really just a worsening russian air and missile war over ukraine. >> and also, really, a reminder of why ukraine has been asking for those patriot missiles for
6:34 am
months. the cnn pentagon correspondent barbara starr joins us now. what is different this time? >> i think it is what you guys are talking about, right there, the russian missile war. in recent weeks, months, russia intensifying its bombardment of ukraine population centers, energy facilities, infrastructure, the u.s. has not really been anxious to give such an advanced system to ukraine, but now seeing what is happening, they are stepping in. all indications are the pentagon finalizing the plans, sending it over to the white house, to get president biden's final signature on it. what would happen is the patriot would be sent to ukraine, but it's maybe not so easy, because first, you have to train any number of ukraine troops to work on this system, how to operate it, maintain it, spare parts, logistics, repairs, all of that. it is a complex system. but the advantage it brings to the battlefield for ukraine would be significant. this is a system where its radar
6:35 am
essentially locks on to an enemy missile, in this case a russian missile, and then engages it. and the patriot missiles fire off, and if successful, bring down the russian missile at altitudes and zans fdistance fa the targets in ukraine. so it begins to provide that air defense shield, along with other systems already on the battlefield, along the front line to provide a shield against the russian missiles. final signature still awaiting. but the indications are the biden administration is in fact moving towards doing this. >> another great story from the great barbara starr at the . joining me now to discuss, colonel cedric leighton, good to have you on this morning, colonel. >> goods to be with you, jim. >> i wonder if you can compare
6:36 am
the patriot missile system to the air defense systems ukraine is already relying on, particularly old soviet made ones but ones supplied by nato partners in recent months. is this a major upgrade in terms of technology? >> yes, it is. one of the things, jim, is that it juuses a phased array radar that means the patriot system can hone in on a target using multiple beams without changing the antenna configuration, they don't have to move the antennas, do anything like that. a lot of the systems they have right now, whether the old soviet era systems or newer systems from nato countries, they are basically designed in some cases at least to be less reliant on technology and more physically reliant. so what that would mean is those systems require the physical movement of antennas, they can then determine where the missiles are, so it's a much
6:37 am
more complex undertaking than the ukrainians have right now. the patriot system will undermine that. >> i wonder, this is a massive and expanding russian air and missile assault on ukraine, and particularly the targets in recent weeks have been on infrastructure, that impact the lives of civilians, that's deliberate here. how many of these systems, given this is the largest country in europe, does ukraine need to make a dent in russia's air war? >> that's a really interesting question. generally what you want to do, jim, is if you deploy the patriot system, you want to deploy it to the areas you want to defend most. so it would be logical for the ukrainians to deploy it around kyiv, for example, and cities like kdnipro and kherson,
6:38 am
certainly around kharkiv, any of the areas they want to protect their infrastructure, which generally speaking could mean the entire country in the ideal way. a lo of people compare the patriot system to the iron dome system the israelis have. it's based on the patriot system, but israel has much less of a surface area to worry about than ukraine does. and it's impossible to defend the whole country so you want to pick the targets you want to protect and make sure you protect air bases, government installations and population centers so that would be where they deploy that. how many, you're probably looking somewhere between -- if i was doing this, around five to ten batteries of that type. that would be a pretty big order and that would be, you know, somewhere around a $10 billion commitment if we went to maximize with the patriot deployment. >> as you know better than me, war is about adjustments, each
6:39 am
side changes and adjusts. and one adjustment russia has made is to bring in these iranian drones, and they've had devastating effect on civilian targets and infrastructure in ukraine. would the patriot system be effective against the drones? >> yes, generally speaking it would. it would depend on the different type of patriot system, there are different models but the system is capable of downing drones. it's been used by the israelis to down hamas based drones. it's been used in other conflicts like the conflicts in yemen. so it can be used for that purpose. of course the ha dees have used ukrainian drones as well. so there is some operational significance here and some history with these types of weapons and it can be used in that way. >> cedrcedric, thank you for

administration sending additional border patrol agents to el paso amid what they call a major surge in illegal crossings. >> this video shows a big influx of migrants, this at a crossing in texas. the department of homeland security says more than 2,400 people crossed into the u.s. every day this past weekend. that number is expected to grow by the end of the month. cnn white house reporter priscilla alvarez is covering the story, has for some time. it's already a big influx but now you have the upcoming expiration of title 42 which has barred asylum seekers under pandemic rules, what's the administration going to do about that? >> they have to do a key thing, which is shore up the resources to meet the number of people coming so they have to do it in a couple ways, preparing temporary facilities to process people. shoring up ground and air transportation to move bodies

either to lateral points on the border or origin country or increased referrals of prosecution. the reason this is ending is because of a lower court order that said the administration could no longer use the authority. the white house is under increasing pressure about what is going to happen in the next few days and weeks. and we have been told that lawmakers have been calling administration officials on a more frequent basis. sources told us about a call between chuck schumer and chief of staff ron kline and it captures the moment for this administration as it begins to see the beginnings of the challenge it's going to face with el paso. >> can they increase resources sufficiently and quickly enough to deal with those numbers, right? because this requires a lot of facilities, a lot more judges, right? doesn't it to adjudicate each of the cases. >> and more money, which is what they're asking for too. every homeland security official i speak with walk you through

icon and leader congressman john lewis with his own stamp. it features a picture of the long-serving congressman taken for a 2013 issue of "time." >> lewis made history so many times through his life. lewis was a remarkable force through his own life. we're learning more about the death of the sports journalist grant wahl, the 29-year-old suddenly passing while covering the world cup. now his widow is speaking out. she's a doctor herself, sharing this about her late husband in just the last hour. >> he told me he has seen what could happen at the stadium, grant had collapsed, they had
6:53 am
tried to do cpr for some 20 minutes, then took him to the hospital. two of his oregon colleagues were following in the car. that's what i knew at that point. i started to try to track down somebody at the hospital to tell me what happened. i kept on asking, did he have a pulse. >> you were asking doctor questions. >> i knew that was a sign. no one would answer the question. >> that certainly tells you a lot when they don't answer the question. >> dr. gupta joins me with more. she told gayle her husband had died an aortic aneurysm, and she thought maybe this had been brewing for some time. can you explain this? >> yeah, it's a rare situation, but as celine gounder was sort
6:54 am
of describing, i think there's a couple images here -- this is hard to talk about in the context of this person who everyone knew and loved, but if you look at the image of the heart. on the bright red area, that's the aorta, the major looked vessel that supplies blood to the whole body. sometimes that blood vessel there can become weakened and more balloon-like, and you can see that's sort of in the image on the right. again what i'm describing here is rare. i want to emphasize that again. if it does become a balloon-like structure on the right, the wall is weakened and it can rupturing, meaning blood coming out of heart can bleed into the chest calf vitt and cause the symptoms and subsequently the death of someone like grant wahl, whatever the reason, it's
6:55 am
a catastrophic problem, very hard to treat, very hard to even know somebody has that, but that seems to be what dr. gounder was describing. >> wahl explained he was burning the kanell at both ends, not feeling much, not feeling great, he thought he might have covid, flu, et cetera, is there anything that people can do in terms of prevention, but also signs to watch for? >> it's a great question, jim, but it's very hard to sort of screen for this sort of problem. not to say that prevent doesn't have a significant role. obviously a respiratory infection, things like that, but this had probably been there for some time, but not causing much in the way of symptoms. he thought he had bronchitis. it could be that aneurysm starts to expand, it could be pushing on his trachea, lungs, causing
6:56 am
these symptoms. back pain, cough could be one of the symptoms associated with this. again, i just want to emphasize again, this is rare. i don't want to unnecessarily frighten people, but you can see how challenging it might be. about 20% of the time there's some family history, but even then not a recommendation for people to immediately get screeched with imaging tests. >> you look at that list of stoisms, there's so many things that could happen. well, he was certainly too young. thank you so much for walking us thus it. still ahead, soon survivors from the colorado club q shooting will testify on capitol hill on how a surge of anti-lgbtq plus rhetoric has fueled a rise in violence. we'll hear from some of those
