higher elevations of colorado where they certainly need it. there's a potential for severe weather, southeast especially and very, very heavy rainfall in other spots. you will see 2 to 4 inches of rain across the areas. there you go, that 6 to 12 inch snowfall here. here's the outlook for california. below average precipitation over the next six to ten days. that is some news to let the water run off. i loved your interview just a little bit ago. believe it or not, lake orville is up 127 feet since this rain started. it's still down 114 from full. 114 feet still to go. >> chad myers, nice to see you. thank you so much, sir. thanks for joining me. i'm christine romans. "cnn this morning" starts right now.

extra point is pushed wide right. >> got to stop the run. easy touchdown. >> extra point is missed again. and now brett maher misses again. he's knissed tonight. four in a row. and -- he has done it again. >> they might be looking for a kicker next week. >> he missed again -- yes. >> actually, he was -- >> extra point -- for -- >> i mean, some days you just -- you're off. right? >> yes. >> it's just the way it is. >> and the playoffs -- >> they say when, like, when you have a bad day like that, you should just go home. >> go home and go to bed.

>> cowboys still get the w. talk about that. hello, everyone. also ahead, election denier, lost the race by a landslide accused of hiring a group of gunmen to shoot up lawmakers. one of the targets, going to join us, live. >> and are there more classified documents out there at biden residences. what cnn has learned about additional searches that could be on the way at locations tied to president biden. also this -- >> out-patients and -- >> i don't know but always have a few questions about it. >> house speaker kevin mccarthy acknowledging he had questions about the resume of george santos. weighing in after downplaying the congressman's lies and resi resisting outlawing him from congress. and former republican state house was angry that he lost his election last fall and claimed that the vote was rigged.

now he is in police custody in connection at orchestrating four shootings at democrats residences. saying pena was the mastermind and paled four others to carry out shootings on lawmakers houses. to note no one was injured. >> the evidence is not only firearmses but from cell phone and electronic records, surveillance video and multiple witnesses inside and outside of this conspiracy that have helps us weave together what occurred. on the last shooting we now have evidence, too, pa pena himself went on this shooting and actually pulled the trilgger on at least one residence home. >> and the gun pin was malfunctioning but another shooter at the scene shot a dozen rounds. pena and election denier visited three of the targets , and formr

president trump he never conceded his loss and lost 47 points behind his opponent. here's the mayor. >> this kind of radicalism is a throat to our nation and made its way to our doorstep right here in albuquerque, new mexico but i know we will push back and not allow this to cross the threshold. fundamentally, at the end of the day this was an a right wing radical arrested today, election denier and did the worst imaginable thing can you do when you have a political disagreement. turn that to violencethat should never be the case. >> well, next hour we're going to speak withboaalboa, and her reaction. now this.

>> mr. president, this is important, mr. president, how do you feel about the classified documents found at your residence? >> president biden declining to answer questions from reporters. a little far away from them you can see after the revelation that additional documents were found in his home in wilmington, delaware, providing ammunition from republicans asking who had action to that location in wilmington and to the private office where documents were initially found. >> well, we don't know exactly yet whether they broke the law or not. i will accuse the biden administration of not being transparent. why didn't we hear about this on november 2nd when the first batch of classified documents were discovered? >> so far the biden team searched the president's two private homes in delaware at his

office are and a think tank in washington and additional searches could happen at other properties linked to biden. paula reid is live in washington. paula what is on the table here of what they could be looking forgiven that they found these documents at these locations? do they still have questions whether there are more documents in other places? >> reporter: yes. and in a situation like this that is a problem. remember, they're not just looking potentially for classified material. they're also going to look for any other presidential records that need to be returned to the archives. sources have not identified specific locations that could be searched, but we know biden uses other ochs spaces and his family rented a home in northern virginia. when they found this initial batch of confidential documents, officials went to the former office and his two homes. again, there are other spots that could potentially be

searched and that's an open question that will likely go to special counsel robert hurt. >> the question who would be doing the searches initially handed them over to the state department. the trump administration initially searched trump's properties. who would actually do the s searcheses if more are carried out. >> reporter: there's no playbook for searching for classified information from the time vice president. a very small group of people who can actually do this kind of work. the biden team mace the choice. you noted, have his attorneys do this. both a private and one of the white house attorneys with a clearance. that gets real messy. a private attorney finds something. the person with clearance needs to come in, hand it off to the justice department. but i think it's interesting. in reporting we learned the u.s. attorney in chicago who originally was asked to do the review of that initial batch of classified documents, he didn't ask for additional searches.

he didn't conduct additional searches. the biden team did this voluntarily. he didn't even wait for all the searches to be completed before appointing a special counsel. that special counsel will likely have to confer to the team to see how to proceed, if they want to do additional severance. >> watching closely. paula reid, thank you. now to the wreckage from that attack in dnipro, ukraine. 90% dismant manied. survivors found at the site, 41 confirmed dead, though, and 4 of them are children. 25 others are still missing. ukraine's first lady elena zelenskyy slamming the russians at a speech at the economic forum in davos, switzerland. listen to this. >> >> translator: these were ordinary people at home on a saturday and enough reason for russians to kill. nothing is off limits for russia. as we speak in our city of dnipro people were still working

and sorting through the debris of a residential area, a house that was destroyed by a missile. this missile was built to destroy aircraft carrier. it was used in the civilian infrastructure. >> that was the first lady of ukraine. joining us on the ground, the death toll has gone up from that attack. what more can you tell us this morning, fred? >> reporter: yeah, poppy. officially this is still a search and rescue operation. ukrainians say that's being conducted here. in reality it's a recovery operation. really over the past day or so, only bodies, unfortunately the crews have been pulling out of the wreckage or what's left of that building hit by that missile, and since then the mayor's office has come out and said the death toll has actually jumped to 44 killed. 4 more bodies found this morning including the body of a child. needless to say that causes a lot of grief on the ground here and anger as well.

here's what we're learning. while rescue crews are still sifting through the debris, the chance of finding anymore survivors is verifirtually zero. a gaping hole where dozens of family once lived. you can see here, this building was completely annihilated down to the ground. the russians used a cruise missile called a kh-22. that is designed to destroy whole aircraft carrier strike groups, and when it hit the building, the building completely collapsed and buried dozens of people underneath. a miracle that anyone survived at all, ukraine authorities say. katerina zelenska was pulled from the rubbles hours after the strike but her husband and 1-year-old son remain unaccounted for. and this video shows happier

times for the koronof ssy famil. their yellow kitchen torn apart by the massive explosion. 15-year-old maria was also killed in the blast. dozens of relatives, classmates and teachers coming to pay their final respects. >> translator: she was an incredible child, her class teacher says. god is taking the best of ours. this is what happened. >> reporter: the kremlin denies they were behind the strike and instead claims a ukraine anti-missile hit the building. ukrainians say that simply isn't true and the mayor tell us us his city and the country need more western defense systems. wench countries give us air defense systems, he tells me, but unfortunately not enough and come it's with delays. these are the only things that

can save our swl civilians in o cities. ukrainian say they had no chance of stopping this missile that killed scores in an instant. interesting, poppy, saying 95% of the debris cleared. about 8,500 metric tons's debris hauled away and still are finding bodies underneath that rubble. needless to say that's causing a lot of anger. in fact, the ukraine president vowed to bring those responsible in front of an international court. poppy? >> yeah. fred pleitgen, thank you for that report from ukraine. and after weeks of empty shelves, drug stores changing policies on over-the-counter fever medicine for children. good morning, doctor. good news for some, but possibly, i mean, what's happening with the limits? the concern is maybe some parents might hoard and others won't get. what's going on? >> let's hope not. i think some parents are breathing a sigh of relief,

poppy, myself, they may not have to hunt as far and wide for these medications and some drug stores are changing policies. a hope, glimmer things are changing that demand is being met. walmart ended their limit for online purchases of these kids' fever and pain-reducing medications. cvs has a two-product limit in-store and online. >> we also, talking about this, talking about the rsv numbers, flu numbers, the combination how it was affecting hospitalizations. have we paeaked? how does it look now that we're in january? >> covid cases have gone up but flu and rsv has peaked. flu cases high, very high, in half of states. overall numbers are coming down. on average seen about 24 million illnesses total for the flu over

200,000 hospitalizations. 16,000 deaths. in that first week of january. still a little over 12,000 in terms of hospitalizations. vaccination rates are low particularly among kids. 48% of kids got vaccinated. that was findings from december. >> for what? flu? >> yeah. and 40% for adults. common for low vaccination rates and emphasizing how important that is for flu and rsv in terms of where we are in numbers, in general, talking about 5 out of 1,000 kids hospitalized were under the age of 5 for rsv. really a sign of hope for parents worried about those young kids that we are seeing the in ubs come down. >> yeah. doctor, thank you so much. okay. in sports this morning the cowboys eliminating the buccaneers from the playoffs leaving speculation about tom brady's future officially begins. the greatest quarterback of all-time struggled early and

they didn't get theirs points until the cowboys were up 20 points. what are you going to do next, tom brady? >> go home get as good a night's sleep as i can, and -- you know what? a lot of focus on this game. so -- yeah. just dwayne at a time. truly. >> one day at a time. we'll see. a huge win, dallas kicker brett maher set a playoff record that no one team wants. missed four straight points. no kicker has missed as many as three in a playoff game since the nfl started keeping track back in 1932. he missed more in this game than the entire 17-game regular season. maher finally kicked one through the uprights on this final try. >> can i say two things? >> yes. >> one, he's had a great season. yes, a horrible game last night, but maher actually had a good season and talking about tom

brady and his future. dak prescott, the cowboys quarterback had an incredible day last night and a lot of criticism going into this. >> he did -- break a record. >> just not the one you warrant to break. >> still -- brady, who knows? never know with brady. but i think, like -- i won't say it. >> we shall see. >> he once bragged he had killed enough people to fill a cemetery, but now after 30 years on the run, a notorious mafia kingpin is behind bars. what led to his capture. and republicans when will they realize that george santos might about fraud? news from house speaker kevin mccarthy. in the nutritional drink you choose. try boost glucose control®. itit's clinically shown to help manage blood sugar levels and contains high quality prorotein to help manage hunger and support muscle health.

house speaker kevin mccarthy harbored his own doubts about george santos' resume. >> when were you first made aware of some of these allegations around santos? >> i never knew about his resume or not but always had a few questions about it. >> he didn't raise those questions after election day writing that george santos would about great leader and conservative voice for the people and also didn't really raise those objections week after that hailing george santos's jewish heritage.

another claim we know now turned out to be a lie. >> i really want to talk about who's the makeup of this majority? you've heard from some already. you know max milner ohio, george santos in new york, and you had david cusstoff from tennessee get re-elected. introducedy them. do you realize we have the largest republican jewish caucus in more nan 24 years? >> mccarthy in the last few weeks downplayed revelations about santos, how he fab bricat key details. mccarthy acknowledging he may not actually be able to get a security clearance. >> i don't see any way he's going to have top secret -- referring to george santos. he's got a long wray to go to earn trust. but one thing i do know, apply the constitution equal to all americans. the voters of his district have elected him. >> we should note, the lies from santos actually extended to

mccarthy himself after it was reported that earlier in 2021 a santos aide was caught impersonating mccarthy's chief of staff soliciting campaign donations. >> it happened, and i know it was corrected but i was unnotified about that until a later date. i didn't know about it until a later date unfortunately. >> and joining us, a longtime "new york times" contributor who studied lying after being conned by her former fiance who once told her he helped capture osama bin laden, he did not and turned her life into a book. so i guess a lot of perspective on george santos. >> a lot of perspective. yeah. on george santos. there's something wrong with him. i mean, this is not normal behavior. absolutely not normal except for

the fact that is kind of is normal. >> is it not normal? >> to the extent he's lying making up fabrications is not normal. there's a debate whether or not that's a meant of illness or a symptom of mental illness. right? dsm, the diagnostic bible, nothing pathological, doesn't exist. that does not exist. nothing in there about pathological lying but it's a symptom of borderline personality, narcissistic disorder. a symptom of something else and debating whether or not it should be its own problem. >> i haven't read your book bet read a lot about it and your story. fascinating. a really intelligent person and you got duped and a lot of voters got duped. failure on journalists, the media for not seeing this, on everyone, but why do you think so many voters were able to be duped by him, on every level?

>> because people seep what they want to see and the biases are exactly where you want them to do. if you like donald trump, say, ah what he did, fine. no prop with the documents. you like biden, no problem with what he did. see what we want to see and believe what we want to believe. what? 142,000 people voted for santos. what i don't understand is how he was able to -- get elected -- get in office. why nobody said after the articles came out about him, why nobody said, no, you're out. >> constitutionally they can't. >> but it doesn't make sense to me by -- what it is, we wouldn't have a government, everybody elects. >> a piece i read in "the guardian" a political system that politicizes dishonesty, pushes since searretty. as a whole particular american

longings sadly inventing a character who wa assuage anxieties and comfort vanities of the republican-leaning voters in his district. simply -- shift what do you call it? shaping. >> shifting. yeah. he's rippling. >> why is that okay? people want to believe him so it makes it okay? >> yes. everyone wants to believe the emperor that clothes. people wanted to believe that this guy is who he said he was, and more. and nobody questioned it. apparently people knew something was off and didn't care because they needed him. in the meantime, you know -- this thing's -- i don't need that thing. >> shape shifting. >> shape shifting. >> yeah. >> but you know, he duped a lot of people, and who's suffering for it? the public. right? >> yeah. >> questions, because a lot of lawmakers said they're not going to work with him. different questions how his constituents will be served.

one thing we've heard from republicans in washington, voters elected him. they didn't know he built his campaign on a mountain of lies when they did so. >> they elected him on the lies. >> because you have to trust. we have to trust. every day we get out of our houses and trust. trust the car will stop at the red light nap the doctor's really a doctor. the pilot's really a pilot. that this person is telling the truth. he's a politician, working for me not against me. >> and abby, the research you did, what's the fix? is there a fix or are we doomed? continue the cycle? >> reagan what did he say? trust and verify. trust, verify and still don't trust, and you need hard evidence. right? we have that now, about santos. interesting to see what happens. >> yeah. >> abby, thank you so much. >> thank you. >> bring up a very good point. when people say, kaitlan, he was elected by the people, but the people elected something that was not necessarily true. if they knew who santos was, i

don't think he would have been elected. that's fair to say that. >> it's fair to definitely question whether or not he would have. we won't really know unless he resigns or when up for re-election in two years. so -- >> thank you. no water to shower, no water to flush the toilet. why hundreds of homeowners in scottsdale, arizona, just got cut off from their city's water supply. plus -- egg prices are becoming more and more expensive. what is behind this uptick? cnn investigates, ahead. >> green eggs. go get grereen eggs. national university is here to supupport all your titles. national university. supporting the whole you.

hitting the charts as breakup songs surge. who they're singing about, ahead. and reaching a critical stage for a group of people in one community just outside of scottsdale, arizona. suing the city to restore their water delivery service. cut off because of extreme drought conditions in the colorado river. where majority of scottsdale's water comes from. last year scottsdale's water department told cnn in an email they weren't being good neighboring allowing this community to temporarily use that water supply. well, the department said due to the current water shortage by law it "must dedicate its limited water supply to their residents." they started doing that beginning of this year and now there is a crisis for folks. a mega drought plaguing america's west, the worst in 1,200 years. look at this. images of lake mead, the largest reservoir in volume. you can see just how much water

levels decreased. the colorado river feed into lake mead affecting millions across seven states and in mexico. our chief climate correspondent bill weir is with us. asking in the break, the same colorado river crisis causing another issue in colorado? so walk us through -- i mean, can you imagine living think? can't flush a toilet, take a shower? >> sort of like they've been living as if hooked up to the water authority. folks in this town. 5,000 gallon tanks buried. a truck goes to scottsdale loads up the truck until they don't. until it become as point people start deciding who gets what. the old saying some attribute it to mark twain. whiskey for drinking, water's for fighting in the american west. that is the theme right now. way too many people, not enough water. places like vegas have really learned to conserve, even as population has grown.

so it's conserving every drop. >> wow. >> when you say unincorporated, because they're not part of that -- >> exactly. >> the question for people who feel they've been slapped in the face with this, why is there not any kind of alternative they have here? >> that is the question for the developers. you know? folks who buy some land and chop it up and sell subdivisions there, they can do it, uncorporated and it's really on the homeowner to decide where your water is coming from. homesteader, that was the attitude. different as a retiree moving from the midwest and used to this sort of thing, but they voted to set up another separate water taxing district, and unanimously to maricopa, the board voted it down. you see people, you know, metaphorically pulling up the ladders around communities saying you know, maybe we don't need this rampant unchecked growth when in the middle of this mega drought. >> with urban sprawl moving out to suburbs. people know. when i was looking for my house,

like, you're good. this house is on town water. >> just going to say that. i think about that. >> a big thing now. >> you don't think about that in the east a lot or the midwest, but out west, that's everything. >> part of a much bigger problem. correct me if i'm wrong. you're the expert. just in my hometown in baton rouge talking about the mississippi river at lowest levels ever. correct? >> go around the world. the danube -- >> yeah. what's going on? >> on a planet warmed up by fossil fuels it throws off the water cycle. too much water at points as seeing in california the last, since christmas. not enough in other places. and we've built our society around that predictable water cycle we're all so familiar with that had its peaks and valleys. especially in the arid west. now it's sort of passed as no longer prologue and have to figure out how to adjust infrastructure, entire watersheds, basins like that.

new governor of arizona first acts, unseal this report that said this huge development plan for one part of phoenix doesn't have enough water. so the law is, if you develop in arizona you have to have water for 100 years. they did the math. this one, section, falls short by 4.5 million acre feet in there. when that gets into real estate and real estate values the fighting and hollering starts. >> thank you very much. >> you bet. >> appreciate it. so if you're in the market for a new car, you may be able to afford a tesla now. maybe why the company is dramatically cutting prices. also, an alarming broadcast showed a toddler waving around and pulling the trigger of a handgun on live television. >> ah. >> tell you who police now have in custody, ahead.

welcome back to "cnn this morning." it is now not as -- emphasis on "as" -- expensive to buy a tesla. rising interest rates post challenges to the ev industry and it gets more competitive. christine romans is with us now. expensive -- >> technical, grammatically. >> wants you to be able to afford the tax credit and inspire demand as we're heading into, maybe, slower growth this year. elon musk had a tough year. lost more money in one year than anyone humanly has done in history. i have to fact check that but i'm pretty sure it's true. lost 60% of tesla shares. and now more of these models will qualify for these new tax breaks, new ev tax breaks. if the market for an electric

vehicle this might be your year. especially early in the year. a $7,500 ev break. crossover for tesla is under $53,000. it will qualify for that. first two lines how much money to make less than the income limits to qualify for this free money from the government. the high-performance version of the model 3 sedan now $53,990 would qualify and also gm and toyota cars that now qualify as well because they've listed that inflation reduction act, lifted that 200,000 car cap for how many cars could qualify for tax credits. tax credits, lower prices. look at the chevy bolt. put that $7,500 tax credit it's like a $20,000, $19,000 car cheaper new. cheaper than some used cars. so i'm just saying 2023 might be the year of the ev for some people. check all the fine print. it's an interesting moment and

look it's like elon musk and tesla trying to lower prices of some of those models to qualify. >> my question is, what do we know about once people have an electric vehicle, do they stay with electric vehicles or go back to -- >> interesting's some cars and vehicles have cult-like status. tesla is one. those rivian trucks. i was just looking at used rivian trucks which cost more than the new truck, if you sign up for, have to get on a waiting list to get your rivian truck or suv. there's, like, cult status for some of these evs. others, though. there's a mustang that, the ev that i drove with our auto writer recently. you know, there's the chevy bolt. some are lower-cost cars, too, working hard to fill demand for those too. 10% global car sales last year was ev. did you know that? >> no, but i don't think i'll have a choice in our household.

sienna doesn't even let me use plastic bags. >> she is a new yorker. >> and you drive to minnesota. >> the thing i'm worried about. >> thank you. >> christine romans, thank you. >> you're welcome. >> you see what it says on the prompter? it says -- >> eggs -- it says eggsensive. does it? egg prices, calling me an egg head, which you do sometimes. anyone grocery shopping lately can't notice how the price for a dozen eggs skyrocketing. what's causing the price surge? vanessa, hello! vanessa what is causing the price surge? >> many americans would go to the grocery store, not think anything much about buying a dozen eggs not really looking at prices's considered and is considered a staple in american households. just in the last year a big
