top of the hour this friday morning. i'm jim sciutto. we begin this hour on the so southern border where crowds are building on the mexican side ahead of the lifting next week of title 42. that is a policy dating to the trump administration that allows u.s. border authorities to swiftly turn away migrants on the grounds of public health. we'll take you to the border live as texas officials prepare for a big surge of migrant this is weekend. plus, twitter is now taken down the accounts of several

high-profile journalists from the nation's top news organizations including cnn. accounts that have covered musk aggressively in recent weeks they've now been suspended. why? and in new video, these are residents of kyiv sheltering in a metro station during another russian air raid targeting population centers. this morning dozens of russian missiles hit in odessa and kharkiv hitting critical civilian infrastructure. first we do begin at the southern border where cnn's ed lavendera is in el paso, texas. gustavo is in juarez, mexico. ed, i want to begin with you. because you've been seeing folks there so desperate they're sleeping on streets as the numbers increase? >> reporter: yeah, that has continued throughout much of the

week. another frigid night here in el paso. you could see here some of the logistical issues that the city is having to deal with. this is the area outside of the bus station where's people have been sleeping out on the streets because the shelters are filled. the city has put out trash cans because people have been coming by and donating food and warm drinks and that sort of thing. the city now having to come by and take away all of the trash. many of the migrants here helping the city workers load the trash cans into the dumpster. but these are the sanitary logistical things that the city and the emergency teams here in el paso are having to deal with right now. and that is the infrastructure headaches that they have to deal with because of the influx of migrants, there are about 2500 a day. the mayor is now saying that next week if title 42 is lifted, that the number of migrants coming into el paso could be as

high as 5,000. so these kind of lodggistical issues is what they're concerning about and being able to move migrants out on buses to other elections where they could get to their final destinations as quickly as possible and that will heff relieve the pressure here in the border communities. that is the challenge they're deali dealing with next week when title 42 is lifted. let's go to why gaustavo is. are you seeing a big build up in folks waiting for title 42 to be lifted? >> reporter: hi, jim. well it is early minute morning and overnight a border control cleared a number of people who had been waiting for days and they are starting over. you could see the line is

starting to form. we'll are getting there. a group of about 20, 25 that were taken in, but they seem to be waiting for more people to arrive. but you could see the signs of the amount of people who have passed through this border. the illegal crossing you see, you see all of blankets and heavy coats that people have to live behind when they are taken into custody because they only take what fits in a small bag and this is a trail of debris that stretches the length of this crossing. and you could see some of the people who have been waiting for months or waiting for their chance, you see a little father there trying to put a hat on the -- on his child, trying to get warm. it is barely above freezing. some people a little farther down, they have built a little encampment with a fireplace. they're trying to stay warm as long as they can because the process to get in sometimes is

not as easy as it might be. they're led to believe that there seems to be a process in which families, women with children, are allowed to go in first. we've seen some men having to wait a little longer. and we also see people who have their documentation ready to present it to their border agents that in this case it used to be that they were the first ones to determine if a person seeking asylum had the -- you know, the reasonable belief that they were in danger and they should be granted asylum. this is a lengthier process and now they are trying to get them in as soon as they can. >> each piece of clothing there has a human story attached to it. another family. gustavo, thank you so much. one other note, on the immigration system. an analyst shows there is a record backlog, more than 2

million asylum cases pending in the united states right now. the wait time for asylum-seekers to get a hearing is 4.3 years. new this morning, cnn has learned that an american student who went missing in france more than two weeks ago, there he is, is alive. melissa bell is following the story this morning. and melissa, kenny de land's jr.'s father who confirmed got news to cnn this morning, i mean, one, what do we know about his condition and do we know anything more about the circumstances of his disappearance? >> reporter: nothing for now about why kenny deland jr. didn't give his family any news for 17 days when he finally managed to speak to his father. we don't know what happened in the meantime. we learned yesterday from the father, jim, that beyond the change of clothes, the packed lunch and the wallet and the phone he left his host family with, on the morning of november 28th he had also taken his

passport. now did that signal intent to cross the border? we still don't know. but the prosecutor in charge of the missing persons investigation in that town where keb ken deland jr. was had been studying and he was found in spain. and how he got there and why he went there and why he vanished so suddenly when he was used to giving his parents news. throughout they heard from him every other day. that is most uncharacteristic. we don't know why he vanished or where he went. but the news that he is well a huge relief to his father who have been telling us just this morning that he couldn't sleep as every day passed closer to that flight he was due to take home which is tomorrow. growing anxiety that he may never be found. so wonderful news for them this morning. >> melissa bell, thank you so much. overnight back in here in washington, two pieces of legislation passed including the

national defense authorization act, the pentagon budget, and a short-term funding bill to avert a government shutdown for now. that is headed to president biden's desk and is expected to be signed today. and the question is what they do next. lauren fox up on capitol hill with more. i don't know if you want to call it a kumbaya moment, but some bipartisan measures to get some necessary stuff passed. is it a week going to le lung november before the pending kp christmas holiday to get the funding deal done. >> that is the big question going into next week. there is good cheer and good will coming out of last night. but this larger spending bill is obviously something that lawmakers are going to have to tackle when they return to washington next week. they're going to have just a couple of days. and i'm still talking to lawmakers and negotiators who say they are still zaing details of the massive spending bill and that will impact whether they could get the votes for it. we suspect that everyone is going to be able to get out of here for the christmas holiday.

but there are some road blocks ahead. one of them is the fact that conservatives in the house are making it very, very clear that they think that it would be smarter for mcconnell to block this larger spending bill now so that they could have more leverage when republicans control the house in just a couple of weeks. now a lot of rank and file senators are really sort of laughing at that proposition. senator lindsey graham telling my colleague manu raju that they can't even pick a speaker over in the house of representatives, republican conference, how in the world are they going to pass a massive spending bill and i think a lot of lawmakers feel that very intently. now democrats are very optimistic they'll get this through the senate as well as through the house of representatives. but of course, next week we'll see it all unfold. jim. >> and you'll bring us the news and hopefully we get resolution before the holidays. thank you so much. well this morning a cnn exclusive interview, house speaker nancy pelosi and majority leader chuck schumer,

they came together for the first ever joint sitdown interview. the pair talked about a number of topics including this one. they're hopes for president biden in 2024. >> your stepping aside. do you think president biden should step aside for a younger generation? >> i think president biden has done an excellent job as president of the united states. i hope that he does seek re-election. >> you think he should run again. >> he's done an excellent, excellent job. and he runs, i'm going to support him all the way. >> we should acknowledge, it is hard to do an interview and eat at the same time. particularly hand-held food. so hats off to them for that. joining us now laura lopez, white house correspondent for pbs news hour. so this is remarkable. because if we were talking ai couple of months ago before the midterms, you have a growing

chorus that maybe joe biden should step aside. now there you have the leaders of the democrats in the house and the senate, or the outgoing leader of the house and the senate, saying they're all for it. is it just the midterm results that have changed the calculation here? >> i think it is certainly the midterm results are impacting the way democrats are feeling about president biden. they, you know, they narrowly lost the house and they held on to the senate and we know that is the first time since 1934 that the president's party has gained a seat in the senate. if you have talked to schumer, you know, months ago, a lot of democrats were not feeling optimistic earlier this year about their chances of holding the senate and certainly thought that they were going to have greater losses in the house. so, president biden feels pretty bullish and good about the fact that his message heading into the midterms appeared to work

and he was taking a lap right after the midterms. so i think that it certainly had a big influence on it. of course there are factions of the party that want to see a younger generation still rise. but no one so far has said that they would challenge him. >> i mean, the numbers, though, at least in public polling are not great. new poll among democrats, this is among democrat-leaning voters asked if biden should be the 2024 nominee, only 40% said yes. that is democratic leaning and 59% said no. and we should note this is up from 25% in july and down from january and february. is the assumption or the hope of the biden administration that that is the beginning of a trend in his favor? >> yeah, inside of the white house, they are really optimistic and feel good about where the president is headed right now. especially coming off the midterms. and all signs right now point to the fact that he is going to run

again. they also view the former president trump as someone that would be a good person to run against. and that they believe, you know, as they did in 2020, that biden is one of the only people that could actually beat the former president trump. and you know, a number of democrats like bernie sanders have spoken very plainly about the fact if biden were not to run, they would throw their hat in the ring. but again all of the other democrats that are potentially younger than sanders who clearly are eyeing maybe running for president, are not saying that they are going to jump in. and so i think that if voters don't have that other option, they will likely support president biden. >> the other candidate who thinks that his -- and his supporters who think his fortunes will improve for donald trump and a piece in the "wall street journal" today where folks say, it is been a lousy month since he first announced but here is why they think we have the upper hand including a split field among republicans favors donald trump. are we looking at a repeat of

2020? >> i think very very well could. it is an eternity between now and when republicans would pick their nominee. and former president trump still holds a lot of sway with the republican base. when i was in georgia ahead of the runoff there, a lot of voters are still -- still view trump very favorably and support what he stands for an the grievance politics that he's been pushing. so because of that, i think that, if it is a crowded republican field, that that benefits him and that he could rally a lot of the republican base to him if a number of other republican challengers jump in. >> laura lopez, a lot to watch in the coming year. thank you so much. >> thank you. still to come, twitter's elon musk who said he's all for freedom of expression has suspended the accounts of several high-profile journalists. why he said he did it and what is the reality.

first, however, russia has launched yet another wave a after -- wave of attacks, the barrage forcing people to take shelters in subway stations, wherever they could. and a former ambassador to afghanistan is joining me to share his plea to congress now. the push for lawmakers not to break a promise made to afghan allies. chuck,k, this mu is sensational. it's truly an all-star lineup. try it today. ♪ ♪ wow, we're crunching tons of polygons here! what's going on? where's regina? hi, i'm ladonna. i invest in invesco qqq, a fund that gives me aess to the nasdaq-100 innovations, like real time cgi. okay... yeah... oh. don't worry i got it!

destroy critical infrastructure including power generation, the biden administration condemned russia's latest barrage of missile strikes. this comes as the senate did vote overnight as part of the massive national defense authorization act to authorize more than $800 million in further military support for ukraine. discussion of the patriot missiles year seeing there as well. cnn pentagon correspondent barbara starr joins me. so among the things, barbara, they have announced is expanded training for ukrainian forces. but they haven't quite announced the final decision on the patriot missile. what do we know? >> we are waiting for that. exactly right. president biden still by all accounts has the final paperwork that would allow the white house to announce the transof patriot missile systems to ukraine. pentagon does expect it to happen. it is going to be a critical advantage for the ukrainians.

it will take time to get it all there, it will take time to get ukrainian troops trained up on it. but what the patriot does is, it is able to track rand engage an bring down return ballistic missiles at long distances further away from the ukrainian target. so there is the beginning of an air defense shield for the higher altitude longer range shootdowns. so these russian missiles can't get to the civilian areas and the hope is they could begin to get a handle on these russian attacks. but, it is going to take some time. this is a complex weapon system. hundreds of ukrainian troops need to be trained on it. there is the issue of repair, spare parts, logistics, maintenance and all of that. but they do hope to make a start on it. >> and something that ukrainian forces and officials have been asking for, for sometime. thank you so much. >> sure.

all right. while u.s. allies in ukraine receive more than $800 million in military aid from congress, lawmakers left out of the legislation any money to re-settle allies from afghanistan. who now face enormous risks because of their previous service alongside the u.s. government or the u.s. military there. here with me now former u.s. ambassador ryan crocker. he and a number of ambassadors all of whom served in afghanistan are now calling on congress to include what is known as the afghan adjustment act in the broader spending bill. and ambassador, good to have you on this morning. >> thanks for having me, jim. >> so really you have two efforts here and two betrayals of our afghan allies. one is afghan adjustment act, so money to help the folks who have already made it here to the u.s. but they also failed to extend the special migrant visa program which would allow the many tens of thousands left behind in afghanistan seek refuge here outside of the country.

is that a betrayal of those allies in your view? >> i think for me and for all of us would have served in afghanistan, whether it is military or civilian, it is the ultimate betrayal. these interpreters, thousands of interpreters made our mission possible in afghanistan. had we not had them, our casualties would have been far higher and now we're going through a set of hoops they must negotiate to get to this country or to stay in this country and quite frankly it is very hard to watch this play out. >> we just put some numbers up on the screen which might help people understand the backlog. these are people who have not made it to the country yesterday who number in 80,000 or so. they qualify for special migrant visas because they have served the u.s. military. there are 15,000 approved already on their family members

that gets you to about 50,000. but the state department only getting about 250 out a week. that will take four years and there are many more behind them. i wonder, can the u.s. do what is necessary to get these folks out? because it is not just money, it is not just the program, it is physically getting them out of the country. >> jim, if we really wanted to do this, we could do it. what is happening now is the whole issue of special migrant visas, the interpreters, has fallen to the state department. they don't have the resources and they don't have the authorities to really make things happen. all it would take would be for the president of the united states, president biden, to say this is a presidential priority, to designate a presidential envoy who could order other agencies, defense, homeland security, to do the necessary. but he won't do that because he

wants achg in the rearview mirror. he wants it business as usual. he's going a bureaucratic route. let the bureaucracy handle it and it will take ten years and a lot of murdered afghan interprotesters. >> spoke with essential moulten last week and someone who also in congress has advocated for helping and he explained the lack of political will for this, open opposition from republicans and frankly lack of enthusiasm from democrats as being rooted in what he called anti-migrant and he used the storm racist feels about afghan allies. and i wonder if you agree with that assessment? >> well, congressman seth moulton has been a powerful voice for the good here. not just this time, but times past. and in past years as we try to get legislation through that will unify this and make it coherent and make it work. so, i have huge regard for him. the problem is with both

parties. it is with a democratic president in the white house, as i said, who will not make the decisions necessary to really make this happen, and of course republicans who, as you note, really don't like to see all of these migrants coming in no matter how much we owe them. >> it is a sad, sad reality. former ambassador ryan crocker, thank you so much for the work you're doing for these people as well. >> thanks for your interest, jim, i appreciate it. well a new satellite launch for a mission to survey most of the earth's water. a scientist with the jet propulsion laboratory joins us to share exactly what researchers are looking for and hope they'll find. cold coming on? zicam is the number one cold shortening brand! highly recommend it! zifans love zicam's unique zinc foformula. it shortens colds! zicam. zinc that coldld! hi! need new glasses? get more from your benefits at visionworks!

new this hour, elon musk is claiming falsely that the several journalists he suspended from twitter yesterday shared his live location. musk said it was a violation of the so-called doxing policy by sharing what he called assassination coordinates. but his explanation does not line up with the facts. oliver darcy joins us now. tell us what the facts are here about what exactly these accounts including our colleague doney o'sullivan's account shared. >> it is exposing elon musk lack

of commitment to free speech. i think when elon musk came in, he talked about how he wanted to make twitter a beacon of free speech across the world and he's banning journalists from news organizations such as cnn, "the new york times" and "the washington post" and the reason he's going this or the reason he said he's doing this is because they were supposedly doxing him. and that is not true. what these journalists were doing was reporting on an account called elon jet. which used public available account information or flight information to track elon musk's jet. this is not unique to elon musk. there are a lot of bots that track where celebrities like taylor swift or kim kardashian are going. but elon musk hated this account. did he not like it. so he changed the twitter rules this week to ban that account. these journalists who he banned later were just covering this as a news story. and he then decided to ban them from twitter. and i think it is raising a

number of issues, jim. obviously it highlights how musk doesn't really have that commitment to free speech that he said he does. but it also raises questions about what the future of the free press looks like on twitter. of course, you know, twitter is a private platform so they could do what they want. but news organizations, have provided a lot of content to twitter, news is the life blood of twitter. and if they decide now that they don't want to be on this platform because he's banning their journalists, i think it raises some questions about the future. >> our colleague pete muntean has made the point that all planes have tail numbers and you see similar flight information shared about government jets as they move around the world. oliver darcy, thank you so much. five, four, three, two, one. engine ignition. and liftoff. liftoff of swats our first global -- >> another important launch this morning. nasa beginning a first of its kind mission here.

this new satellite is not probing the depths of space. the mission much closer to home. the surface water and ocean topography or swat aimed to map out of the water an on the earth's surface. dr. david sagan is a scientist with the jet propulsion laboratory. >> so swat, swot and you have your land yard around the collar there so show you're part of the team. explain why we are turning back to the water on planet eitarth here. >> i like to think of this mission as going out to space and turning back and taking earth selfie. so we'll be looking at the elevations of the top of the oceans like the past 30 years. but with a much finer pictures

that we've ever seen. allowing us to better understand ocean circulation. and that is critical to understanding how the oceans are eating up the heat from the atmosphere but also critical for navigation. so that is the ocean part. but on the land, for the ferst time ever, we have a mission specifically designed to observe the river and lakes and res voirs and that is most successful and renewable component of the earth's freshwater cycle. it is critical for humanity. >> we have a lot of satellites looking down on earth for decades for now. is this the first time someone has chronicled all of the water systems on the planet? >> well we'll be looking at both sides of the coast. right. the oceans and we've been doing that for many years. but it is been kind of like wrapping a fine line around the planet and this time we're wrapping a ribbon around the

planet. so we'll see almost 90% of earth's surface waters with that. so for the ocean, it is a revolution because we'll be seeing the ocean so much better than ever before. but for the lens, where the rivers and lakes and res voirs are they huh expand and contract with the seasons and understanding the pulses of the earth's arteries are critical to us in water suppoly. >> and as we showing an image. it does look like the circulatory system of the human body. you mentioned heat and the oceans. of course that factors into calculations about the effect of climate change. is that a major part of this mission as well? >> it is a major part of this mission. i'll focus my answer on the continental water cycle because this is my expertise. and the way i see it, it is 8 billion of us on this planet

now. and the water that is in the rivers lakes and res voirs is our checking account for freshwater. this is the stuff that comes back. okay. and ground water is perhaps the savings or the retirement account and we've been using ground water and it is time to start focusing on the most renewable component of the earth, freshwater cycle, the $8 billion of us in an interchanging planet. >> it is remarkable to see the systems unfurl there. it looks like a complicated satellite from the ones that we've looked at before. is it a technological challenge? >> it is a robotic revolution. it is a technological advancement. it is a first time ever. it is -- we've never done a mission like we're doing here and just making sure that we origami the satellite into the spacecraft and ship it, which we did this morning. but then the next stage is going to be unfolding it in space and

making sure that everything checks out and that is going to take a few weeks before we get the first light and the first data sets and that is when the swat revolution will really start. >> like origami. thank you for joining us. >> thanks for having me. well, a solemn story. five officers have been charged by a grand jury over the death of ronald green. video shows the officers kicking and punching and using a taser on green before he died in custody. how the family is now reacting to those indictments. oh man. always look for the grown in idadaho seal. restless nights fogging up your day? tonight, try new zzzquil pure zzzs sleep plus next day energy with melatonin to help you fall asleep naturally...

five officers have been charged. [ cheering and applause ] >> that the family of ronald green reacting to the news at that moment that five officers indicted in connection with the death of their son in police custody in 2019. they said he died if a car crash but video released showed officers kicking and punching and using a taser on the 49-year-old before he died. his family called the di indictments a small victory despite the loss of his son. >> they need to be held

accountable. because if not, you're condoning the killing of ronald green. you're okay with my son being murdered. >> that is ronald reed's mother. green's family is calling for the officers to be fired and arrested immediately. cnn legal analyst joey jacks joins me now to discuss. this is an interesting case on a lot of levels, because the initial police story was a lie. they said he died in a car crash and was only later that video came out showing that the actual circumstances of his death. are you surprising to see these indictment? >> yeah, jim, good morning to you. i don't think i'm surprised at wul. certainly there needs to be a measure of justice and accountability. and when you video that depicted and gives a different story and a version from what the police narr narrative was, i think you have to credit the process for looking at this more closely,

the family for its activism and others for saying, look, we have to do something about this and the event that the police reports were amiss, in the event that the police told tales that were not consistent with reality. so i think this is the first step in the process. i remind you, jim, that a grand jury indictment simply is an indication that there is reasonable cause to believe that a crime was commit and that those police committed it. but it is essential and i think now we go forward and see what happens at trial. >> so this case initially took place in 2019, this altercation. it got little attention until an associated press investigation exposed a cover-up, got a hold of this video which only came out last year and then led to this investigation here. you have the act itself, right. which these indictments target here. but do you have broader potential criminal exposure here for the police not telling the truth it seems early on? >> yeah, i think you do.

and so what happens is that an investigation takes place. certainly you look at what the police said that gave their indications in their police paperwork as to what happened. and then you conduct a broader investigation as it relates to a videotape surfaces that tells a different story. you then present that case to a grand jury, a imamajority vote an indictment and then it unravels. and so ultimately i think what happens and how the case moves forward and even charges we know could always be is a mended, consistent with the evidence, i think the police have a lot of really a lot of explaining to do with respect to how he died and how they could be inconsistent and what they failed to reveal and i think ultimately when it goes to before a trial jury, that is when you have a unanimous jury of 12 making a determination, i think then we'll see with all of the testimony that comes out and all of the investigation that comes out exactly what happened and whether or not the police officers are responsible after

having their day in court, will then have to answer for their potential or alleged crimes as against mr. green. >> there has been some talk that juries are more likely to indict and perhaps convict police officers today than they were a number of years ago. particularly in the wake of george floyd. now it is only been a few years and some of this aanecdotal, but have you seen evidence of that? >> i think so. i think that we are in a day and age of accountability, i think we're in a day and age where police certainly while we respect who that he do and the fact that they lay their lives on the line. when they step off the line, they should, like everyone else, be held to account. and we certainly saw that as it relates to george floyd which was an important step in engaging in the blue wall of silence and getting behind that. and so i think that we're in a day and age where people are examining the evidence, examining the issues and they're not fearful that the jurors will

come back with a guilty verdict if that is what the evidence shows. >> the importance of video in so many of the cases. joey joey jackson, thank so much. more than 13,000 documents relating to the assassination of john f. kennedy released. what the classified documents may reveal. that is coming up. adding lysol laundry sanitizer killlls 99.9% of bacteria detergent alone, can't.

all of these years, decades later, we could soon learn even more details about the 1963 assassination of president john f. kennedy. this as after the national archives released more than 13,000 documents that had previously been classified. this includes almost all of the remaining information that the cia has directly related to jfk murder. tom foreman joins me now and has been looking through that. i don't imagine you've read every document but is there something new in here. >> yeah, there is something new i in here. this is a dozen copies of war and peace. that is how much of the latest -- >> come on. >> it is the latest release. it is a huge amount of information but a huge amount of minutia. and you find sort of interesting details. for example, there was one part where they have a psychologist

looking at oswald's motivation. and what this psychologist has to say was his motivation is complaining in terms of his neurotic background, his failure to achieve status and his very deep resentment of all authority. oswald saw a movie on tv about fln attempted presidential assassination shortly before his deed which could have sparked him into action. these papers are absolutely filled with this kind of stuff, jim. of course, they're also filled with handwritten notes of meetings and rudimentary computer logs of all sorts of information that they had collected over time. so is there something in there? yes. but if you like to cia experts, they say and kennedy assassination experts, they say no. there is not something that you find that is the big payout here. this is out of roughly 5 million records that they have in the federal government. they read one every minute you'll be reading for nine years to get through the records that

have been released. >> so we'll bring you back to the year 2031. tom foreman, thanks so much. >> you're welcome into and thank you for joining us today. and we hope you have a great weekend. holiday is coming soon. i'm jim sciutto.
