the man who put his feet up on nancy pelosi's desk january 6th guilty on eight charges. he repeatedly said he regrets his actions. and aubrey plaza revealed voted most famous person from delaware. second most famous person from delaware says he accepts the will of the people. >> i was actually voted the most famous person from delaware. i beat joe biden. [ laughter ] ah, that's a fact and he was pissed. livid. look at this video he sent me. >> aubrey -- the most famous person out of delaware and no question about that. just grateful you made it out of "white lotus" alive. see you tomorrow. brianna keilar picks up our coverage right now. hello. i'm brianna keilar in washington. two victims named, eight more

yet to be identified as police work to determine a motive after a gunman killed at least ten people at a dance hall saturday night in monterey park, california. the shooter a 72-year-old man a fixture at that dance hall. police say armed with a semiautomatic weapon and extended magazines and died sunday of a self-inflicted gunshot wound. it could have been so much worse. shortly after the attack, he went to a second location where a man there disarmed him, and this morning he described their frightening confrontation. >> i needed to get the weapon away from him. needed to take this weapon, disarm him or else everybody would have died. when i got the courage i lunged at him with both my hands, grabbed the weapon -- and we had a struggle. we struggled into the lobby, trying to get this gun away from each other. he was hitting me across the

face, smashing the back of my head. i -- i was trying to use my elbows to separate the gun away from him, create some distance. finally at one point i was able to pull the gun away from him, shove him aside, create distance. point the gun at him, intimidate him, shout at him and say, get the howell out of here! i'll shoot! get away. go! >> in the past three weeks dozens of attack like this played out across country. so far this year according to the gun violence archive at least 36 mass shootings in the u.s. chn chn cnn natasha chen is with us. what can you tell us about those identified? >> reporter: they are 65-year-old my nhan and 63-year-old littlen li and the first two names we're hearing our the ten who died here at

this dance studio behind us. flowers laid out in front by people coming to grieve. there are three more women and five more men who have yet to be named, and as of last night we know seven more injured remaining in the hospital. you can tell from these first couple of victims named as well as descriptions of the remains victims gotten from law enforcement they range in's age, 60s, 70s, one woman in her 50s. a place where folks liked to come and have fun and take dance lessons, and we're learning that the suspect himself was a regular at this dance studio and offered informal dance lessons where he met his ex-wife. the way she described their meeting to cnn. so this was definitely a jarring, upsetting, violent end to a happy occasion just a couple of hours after the lunar new year festival hosted by the city had ended. there were private events, of course, throughout the region,

in people's homes and private businesses like this, and that's where this occurred. so some of the people coming up to us and laying flowers, they have, one person even brought her child here saying this is just too close to home, and that unfortunately they are experiencing what so many have across america. feeling like this violence is just shocking to them and yet occurring so often, and they just wonder what can be done about the gun violence in this country. brianna? >> of course they do. natasha what more do we know about this man who it appears stopped a second attack fought far from where you are? >> reporter: amazing work and quick thinking by him. you played a clip from brandon tsay his interview given to abc this morning. a city to the north from where we're standing the suspect moved from this location to that other dance studio in alhambra about

20, 30 minutes later. according to interview they gave to abc, he said most customers had left their lunar new year not quite paying attention to the front door then heard the door close. saw this man with a gun and thought that he might die in that moment. he heard the sound of metal rubbing together, looked over and really had that moment of recognizing that he needed to do something and got up the courage to stop him to try and get some distance between the man and his weapon. ultimately taking over that weapon. a really incredible story, and when, you know, asking, called a hero. you've been applauded for your courage. he said the real courage now has to be shired with these family and friends of the victims and the injured. that is going to be where the real courage lies in the coming days and weeks ahead, brianna. >> they're trying to make sense of this.

josh what do we know about a motive here potentially? what are police saying? >> reporter: motive remains very much a mystery at this hour. we know police continue to look into what in the criminal justice field is called vim tick oltick -- victimology. we know he targeted two of these dance studios obviously the one behind me here in monterey park is where ten people lost their lives. thankfully because of that brave young man over at the alhambra location the suspect was disarmed before able to open fire. that's what police are looking at. was someone inside he was particularly targeting? as well as at a that lower location or just trying to cause an indiscriminate loss of life. the weapon was key identifying him once disarmied at that other lection he fled but authorities able to get a description of the vehicle, broadcast it out around the los angeles area here. a police officer down in

tortore ntore -- torrance, california, saw the white van and saw that long standoff yesterday as police officers tried to stop that car. the suspect fled. officers there heard one shot. they backed down and called in the s.w.a.t. team. the s.w.a.t. team eventually going in, clearing that van and found the suspect deceased from a self-inflicted gunshot wound. sheriff saying they found additional evidence inside that van that linked that suspect to these two locations. that's all they're saying right now. we do know, however, that authorities are conducting a search warrant at the suspect's residence trying to gather as much information as they can. obviously, he is deceased. they can't interview him, glean the motive from him directly and have to look at other avenues to include his residence and talking to people who may have known him and get to an indication why he came here and caused a mass loss of life here saturday night. >> thank you both. bring in retired lapd sergeant sheryl doors trsey to

light on this. how are they proceeding at this moment? >> i think everyone is focused on answering that all so important question, which is the "why?" information they can glean from search warrants served on his residence, anything contained there that might give them a little insight into his thought process leading up to this shooting. investigators will want to talk to family members and friends of this gentleman. i think he was very target-specific for a reason. i think, my own personal belief, that maybe he had some beef or angst with those locations. was he looking for his ex-wife? was this a domestic violence kind of situation? there's a lot of questions that need to be asked and answered and also how did he get this purporteded illegal gun to have in california in california? >> yeah. all good questions. i think anyone looking at this, too, cheryl will note that his

age is unusual. for a mass shooting. 72. then also a regular at that first dance studio in monterey park as you mentioned. what questions do those two things raise for you as far as motive? you touched upon the one. perhaps a domestic, but what about that age thing? >> you know, we can't pigeonhole these kinds of incidents into what we think is, you know, a normal suspect, if you will, if there is even such a thing. you know, people are motivated for different reasons. and act on that in ways that we can't fathom. obviously, him being asian as well understands the importance of the lunar new year and the celebrations that go on around that, and what it means, i heard someone say that you know, they celebrate the lunar new year with the mind-set of everything that happens good on that evening will go forward for the rest of the year and so was it his intent to create havoc and cause chaos, death and

destruction for the rest of the year? is that what he was hoping for his community? so these are, some of these questions we will never get the answer to, because he's not here, but i think he targeted those ballrooms very specifically, and with some specificity. >> and those ballrooms are two are the crime scenes here. right? you have the site of the shooting. you also have the site where the suspect was disarmed. what are the investigators doing with all of these crime scenes? including his home. >> well, making a link. trying to find the connection. obviously, you know, he's an elderly gentleman. his victims were his contemporaries, also elderly. 50, 60 and 70-year-old victims. perhaps in his mind he thought these were, easy targets. these were people who would be vulnerable and maybe just cowl to his progression and thanklily a second man apartment the location in alhambra, the

stammer and able to wrestle the gun out of this hand. he could have created this situation during the day, thousands of people, young people, children on-scene but specifically waited until later in the eenks. evening. >> you mentioned the weapon. extended large capacity magazine that he had on his handgun. banned in california right now. how could he had have acquired that? would he have acquired it before it was banned and what is the remedy here when you're looking at a shooter who has something like that, that is banned yet still able to access it? >> well, that's something we'll have to find out in the weeks and months to come once this investigation concludes. it's quite possible he purchased that weapon somewhere else. we see he gets around. right? lives in this area, went to alhambra and goes to torrance.

perhaps purchased it legally elsewhere and transported it back to california and why he has it. i don't know. is he even able to legally possess a hand gunn here in california? law enforcement can only do so much even with all the background checks and loopholes covered. still more needs to be done's you can only do so much and thatds wthat's why it's so whether or not community pay attention. you see something, do something, as this young man did. >> retired lapd sergeant thank you for your expertise. president biden's classified documents problem just got worse. top deaths now speaking out after an fbi search uncovered even more documents. what the white house is saying today. and bracing for backlash. the city of memphis on edge as prosecutors prepare to release video of an arrest days before a man's death that led to the firing of five police officers

garage in will lington, delaware finding more documents. january 5th attorney general garland was briefed and the public learned of the story four days later. biden's women wilmington home searched again on 191th and more documents were founder. a special counsel named the next day and five more documents found in yet another search in delaware, and that brings us to this past friday. an unprecedented 13-hour fbi search of a sitting president's home that, yes, already serarchd three times, and six more documents found in that search. this drip, drip, drip is getting harder for democrats to defend. cnn's paula reid and phil mattingly join us now. tell us more. >> reporter: historic event. the fbi searching the private residence of a sitting president of the united states. the biden team is quick to emphasize the fact this was a planned search done with their consent. this theme of cooperation is one

really trying to amplify throughout this series of events, trying to draw a distinction between this case and the investigation into former president trump, which not only looks at retention of classified documents also his alleged efforts to obstruct that investigation. now, on friday investigators took what the biden team describes as "six items" consisting of documents with classification markings and surroundi i ing materials. it's not clear what they mean by "six items." a box, a document a device? we know investigators are still going over materials they collected, but it's important to note that the special counsel, robert hur will oversee this investigation hasn't even gotten to the job. not in his office and set up and hope to have him onboarded in the next week or so. important to note once he begins work he'll have the opportunity to impanel a grand jury. could potentially be more searches, additional witness

interviews. as the biden team says in their statement, they want it to move along as expeditiously as possible. it's just getting started and about to move into a full-blown investigation. >> phil, the white house contending with growing criticism from key figures in the president's own party. >> reporter: potential greater complication than they've faced over the course of last several weeks as the information came out. as democrats have figured out what's going on here over the course of the last several weeks clear as paula noted to draw contrast between the former president to highlight the full cooperation that the biden team, his personal lawyers have been giving. as more information has come out you get a sense some of the frustration that exists and real stakes here. what richard durbin said this weekend. >> let's be honest about it. when that information is found it diminishing the stature of any person who is in possession

of it, because it's not supposed to happen. the elected official bears ultimate responsibility. >> reporter: brianna, you know the president said he was shocked to find out these documents were there. he also was not aware they were there in the first place. how this plays out going forward is very much about int investigation, but i think white house officials are cognizant what their allies on capitol hill are saying and hearing more frustration and more and more revelations come out. >> adding to it all, phil, a big west wing shake-up in the middle of all of this. >> reporter: yeah. that's as much, primarily a part of the fact two years particularly as white house chief of staff as ron klain has been a long time to be in an exhausting job. ron klain telegraphed coming long before this investigation became public but underscores a white house like most white houses end of two years now in the midst of a transition. let so to some degree than past white houses but jeffrey zients will come in as next chief of

staff according to sources familiar with the matter. it's important. ron klain instrumental in every element of the white house over the course of the last two years, but al uso underscores, efforts to run president biden's covid-19 response operation, held several roles in the obama administration as well. and given the moment the white house finds itself in, look at the president's agenda implementation at this point in time. passed a lot of those bills, now laws. want to get them in play when zients come into play. keeping train running on time. not ak the investigation so much making sure the west wing, operations of the day-to-day white house are separate from what the president's lawyers, what the white house counsel office is working on and why zients was selected. in part with house republicans in their majority, very much on the attack, too. something they are cognizant of as well and the driving force of this in a very critical moment for the president as he weighs

surrounding the arrest of tyre nichols but we do know he was pulled over for suspected reckless driving on evening of january 67th. a confrontation and he fled on foot according to police they caught up to him a second confrontation occurred and after taken into custody he complained of shortness of breath. an ambulance called to the scene and taken to the hospital in critical condition. he died three days later. we have reached out to the coroner to ask about extent of injuries or cause of death. those details not released but should mention the five officers involved in his arrest, they have been fired, you see them on the screen. by the memphis police department. >> why haven't this been released yesterday? >> with officials they are nervous about what the public's reaction will be once this video is released. the district attorney many told

me it's not a matter if but when the video is released suspecting sometime later this week or next week. i asked them, what's the holdup here? they wanted to wait until the family first saw this video as of an an hour and 30 minutes ago understand meeting with the district attorney's office to see the video for the first time and a lot of agencies involved now in this investigation. we should mention also brianna the family and attorney benjamin crump are planning a press conference in about an hour from now. >> all significant when the police department does not stand behind the officers. in this case all five fired. >> reporter: the shelby county is considering charges. charges will be announced later in the week. u.s. attorney's office involved and so is the department of justice civil rights, looking at it through a civil rights lens. a lot of details we don't know.

a lot to go forward and will find out later at the press conference. >> waiting awell. nick valencia, appreciate it. right now in a new mexico courtroom prosecutors argue solomon pena should stay in jail until his trif. accused of mastermining attacks against his political rivals after losing his run for state legislators. prosecutors say pena is a danger to the community and should not be released. today we're also learning about a critical piece of evidence in the double murder trial of alex murdaugh. the ex-attorney accused of killing his wife are and son back in the summer of 2021. jury selection is under way in walterboro south carolina and cnn's die an gallagher is outside of the courthouse on this story. we know the evidence the prosecutors are talking about, it's a snapchat video. how significant is this?

>> reporter: brianna, calling it a critical piece to the state's case. they said amongst the things critical to the case a video sent out to several friends at approximately 7:56 p.m. on the night of the murders. the contents important to proving the state many case in chief. sent by alex murdaugh's son paul, shot and killed along with his mother maggie on that night in june, 2021. alec murdaugh charged in their murders. today is the first day of jury selection. i can tell you they sent a juror questionnaire out to around 900 people here in the county. this has been a case, all the other twists and turns that surrounded alec murdaugh, that has captured sort of this "true crime" fascination across the country. even here, the murdaugh familiar

existed a century. a family that dominated the legal community here. well-known before this. since then a interest and knowledge exploded. a moment they asked the jurors, no cameras in the courtroom for jury selection for jurors only protection and asked them if they'd heard of them. take a listen. >> if you have heard about this case, read about this case, or know anything about this case, please, stand. >> reporter: i'm going to tell you a few moments after counting through and asking those jurors questions, the judge noted, oh, everybody stood. i just spoke with our colleague randi kaye, she was inside when that happened and said absolutely wild that literally every single juror, potential juror, stood up. i can tell you doing this in waves here trying to find, and speaking to other attorneys watching this case closely and

represent other whose maybe are victims of some of the financial crimes that alec murdaugh is accused of as well separate from these murders. theysy it's not necessarily going to be about finding a juror who doesn't know of alec murdaugh or the murders or any of the other crimes and sddecei that surround the case but finding people who can approach it from an unbiased viewpoint, take a way biases or come into it without any biases but, again, this is something that they haven't seen in a small town like this. small county like this. and there are people who have feelings about all of the media being here, and all the attention this case has brought to their community already, brianna. expecting jury selection to take at least two to three days,ality minimum here and, of course, leaving three weeks for this trial. >> leaves three weeks. dianne gallagher following it for us in south carolina. thank you. ukraine president zelenskyy

we're following all of these developments. kara, can you walk us through these charges here? >> reporter: brianna, yes. two sets of charges announced against him who was the former head of counterintel at the fbi's new york field office. very important top position. this one set of charges announced by new york federal prosecutors relates to after he left the bureau retired in 2018 he began working for paska sanctioned by the u.s. authorities for his involvement with meddling in the 2016 u.s. presidential elections. can't work with someone who has been sanctioned. being charged in that case for working with him trying to dig up dirt on one of his rivals. then just a few hours later charged by the u.s. attorneys office in washington, d.c. and in that case charged with concealing $225,000 paid while holding that top position at the

fbi some someone who was a former employee of an al painian intelligence agency. charging him with failing to report as required as an fbi agent at the time on these federal foreign meetings and trips overseas and who he's meeting with. prosecutors allege he traveled with this former inpell worker to al cambania and wet with a n foreign officials including the albanian prime minister and based and material and intelligence received from a contact. two serious sets of charges his attorney told me relates to new york charges he will appear in court in just about, in a few moments from now where he will plead not guilty and hopes to be released today. yet to get return on the case in washington, d.c. >> truth as strange as fiction.

thank you for all the details. poland saying it is prepared to send german-made leopard tanks to ukraine if other countries agree to do the same. germany is resisting sending tanks but won't stop others from sending them if they have them. the catch, poland can only send 14 of these tanks. ukraine desperately needs many more tanks and needs them now. president zelenskyy ripped into allies grateful for the help but the thank yous aren't tanks. ukrainians will pay the price if our countries supply additional hardware, per russia. a cnn military analyst and former nato supreme allied commander. sir, thank you so much for walking us through this. tell us a little bit about this leopard ii tank especially versus the u.s.-made abrams tank and all the drama surrounding the potential supply of it to ukraine. >> well, first, brianna, leopard

ii is a good tank it has the same gun the m1-a1 has on it and has a good sighting system. it's powered by diesel engines rather than a jet turban engine, people think easier to repair and to service. however, we've spent 20 years improving the air separation, air cleaners for the m1-a1, so i think there's a lot of exaggeration about the differences between these two tanks. m1-a1 may weigh slight ly more but depends the other armor you put on the german tank. i think we'll get through this. the point is that poland and these countries in europe are the ones facing the russian threat most directly. we're the ones leading the coalition. we've asked germany to step forward. germany hasn't yet. but i do believe that they'll

find a way to work this and i do believe that poland will get -- that ukraine will get the polish tanks and the other tanks it needs, or some of that. here's the thing, brianna. it's too slow and it won't be enough tanks. ukraine's asking for some 300 tanks as a minimum. probably needs 500. we know the russians are forming up for an offensive. we expect it to come sometime on or after the 24th of february. we know they've even gotten their nuclear artillery pieces moved forward into ukraine. we don't know if that's preparation, routine or something else, but we do know that in russian media, russian government officials are continuing to drum up the thought that with the russian people they may have to use nuclear weapons. there's very serious combat coming in ukraine, and ukrainians need this heavy equipment as rapidly as possible. >> and part of that sabre rattling may have something to do with something we have just

learned. a senior u.s. military official general just told our oren liebermann, despite russia sending all tens of thousands of reen enforcements that did so in such a hurried way, weren't prepared and didn't make much of a difference in the past months. what do you think about that and what it says about going forward with this offensive? >> i think it's true that they sent a lot of these people hastily mobilized in september, plus convicts, sent them forward without much training, but there was a second element of that mobilization and there were people that were held back, formed into units going through training now, and so i think the russian military -- they're not stupid. they made serious mistakes. certainly weren't ten feet tall like some of us thought they might be. but they do learn from their experiences, and i think we're going to see a second russian offensive and i think the units

that come forward are probably going to be better trained. maybe not better equipped, but maybe better trained. >> what are you expecting from this offensive? >> i'm expecting the push to come still in the, in the east, with a secondary attack coming out of belarus. may not be a strong attack. right now we can't quite tell. there are russian forces there. there's training going on there. but their easiest method, avenue of approach, try to do a breakthrough in luhansk and i think that'sing what going on around bakhmut sduft just haven gotten a breakthrough yet and then jp zap prisorizhzhia and c south to cut off ukrainian forces, but, again, we've seen a lot of movement in the zaporizhzhia and not the start of an offensive. we have to keep our eyes in four

dre directions. zaporizhzhia, and what's going to happen in belarus and the east. russians are doing this, as i've said, they don't have the essential equipment they need. >> general wesley clark. thank you so much. tax season officially kicks off today. before you bank on a hefty refund from the irs, wouldn't that be nice, you might want to rein in expectations. we explain why. go! only pay for what you need. jingle: liberty. liberty. liberty. libererty. meet a future mom, a first-time mom and a seasoned pro. this mom's one step closer to their new mini-van! yeah, you'll get used to it. this mom's depositing money with tls on-hand. cha ching. and this mom, ll, she's setting an appointment here,

today is the day that you can start filing your income tax returns, but your refund check might be smaller than you were expecting. tax experts calling it refund shock, in fact. cnn's matt egoen is here to break it all down. unfortunately, matt, this is some bad news here. how much of a shock are taxpayers in for? and why is this happening this year? >> well, brianna, if you were banking on a massive tax refund this year, i hate to tell you this, you may end up being disappointed. here is why, some tax breaks have changed or gone away all together. let me show you what's happening here. okay. so on stimulus checks, some of the refund rebates that people were getting related to the recovery, those have gone away. so has the above the line deduction that people could take

for charitable donations. now these changes are going to impact all of you parents out there. the enhanced child tax credit that was in effect for 2021, that has gone away, which is ironic because obviously the cost of raising kids has only gone up. people can still claim a credit, it just won't be as big as it was. same situation for the child dependent care credit. all of this is a big deal because most americans, they overpay uncle sam. that sets them up for a nice refund every spring. look at this, nearly $3,200 was the average tax refund in 2022. that may go down this year. some key dates to be aware of, today as you mentioned, is the day that the irs begins accepting tax returns for 2022. employers, they have to get their w2 in by the end of the month. here is the date that all of you procrastinators need to worry about, april 18th. the deadline for getting in your tax returns or requesting an

extension. >> april 18th. marking it now. okay. so as you're well aware, on the right side of the political spectrum a lot of conspiracy theories have formed around the irs. you have lawmakers in the republican party who have actually introduced a bill to abolish the agency. how would that work? >> well, that's a great question, brianna. some critics argue that it wouldn't work. here is what the proposal is here. they want to -- some republicans are proposing to get rid of federal taxes paid by individuals and by businesses all together. really just getting rid of the federal tax system. they would replace it with a 23% national sales tax. so what does that mean? it means individuals instead of paying taxes at the end of the year on their income, they would pay a tax on what they buy, on the televisions, air fare, other goods and services. and some families, based on the poverty rate and also their family size, they could get a refund. but, critics argue that this

would not be as simple as it sounds and that most americans on average would end up paying more in taxes, except for the super rich. >> while i have you, matt, tell us about this new recession warning we're hearing about today. >> yeah. so the leading economic index, this is basically an early warning system for the economy. it's an indicator that looks at ten different signals on the economy. everything from jobless claims and wages to stocks and bonds in the financial markets. and it is now down for ten straight months. as you can see on this line chart, down pretty sharply. in the past when we have seen this index peak, we have had recessions often but not always follow. these are the shaded areas. those are the recessions. now, i think the truth is, though, this economy, there's a lot of -- it's a mixed picture, right? there's good things. there's bad thing going on. on the negative side, consumer spending has slowed.

manufacturer service sector are in contraction and housing is slumping because of the mortgage rate spike. positives, inflation is cooling, unemployment is historically low and the fed is no longer slamming the brakes. brianna? >> all right, matt egan, thank you. i'm brianna keilar. thank you for watching. we have more news right after this. earned in every wash, and re-earned every day. tide. america's #1 detergent. let's get started. bill, where's your mask? i really tried sleeping with it, everybody. now i sleep with inspire. inspire? now i sleno mask?inspire. no hose? just sleep. learn more, and view in at ipiresleep.com
