viewers around the world. max foster has the day off. i'm bianca nobilo. this is the third property associated with president biden that the fbi has visited. >> the president from the very beginning of total cooperation with the justice department. >> tyre was a beautiful person. and for this to happen to him is unimaginable. >> legacy of tyre nichols is that we have equal justice swiftly. >> this time the man many consider the greatest player in nfl history seems to really mean it. >> it is time. he has proved everything he needs to prove. so go ahead, move forward. this is "cnn newsroom" with max foster and bianca nobilo. >> it is thursday, february 2,

4:00 a.m. in rehoboth beach where fbi agents have wrapped their search for classified documents at the president biden vacation home. mr. biden has repeatedly insisted he did nothing wrong in handling classified material, a claim echoed by the white house. >> i think that we won't get ahead of potential speculation and steps that could happen in the investigation. the president has been fully cooperative and he's directed his team to be fully cooperative. and that is because he believes in the independence of the justice department and giving them the space to conduct that review. so he is moving quickly to give them access to his homes so that they dican do a full search. >> the searches into multiple properties would be a clear sign that the justice department is remaining vigilant in its investigation. jessica sthichneider reports.

>> reporter: this was a third fbi search and it lasted for 3 1/2 hours wednesday at president biden's are rehoboth h house. no classified documents were found. and they say it was conducted in cooperation with the president and his attorneys and that the fbi and the doj had the president's full support and cooperation. and of course that has been a constant theme from the white house. they have repeatedly sought to differentiate the investigation into president biden's handling of classified documentation from the obstruction investigation going on with touchdown and his team because of documents found at mar-a-lago. but notably at the same time the search was under way, the special counsel handling biden's case had just started on wednesday, robert hur, he will be leading that investigation. but there is still a lot of questions as to what exactly has

been found from biden's homes and even his former office. our team has learned that dozens of classified documents in all have been found. no details on what exactly the documents taken. and biden's team on wednesday did say that even though no classified documents were found, to j doj did take some handwritten notes from biden's time as vice president from the home. the seernlg about two weeks ago lasted about 13 hours at the wilmington house. so now the question is will there be anymore searches by the fbi and it is still a possibility as the investigation moves forward. jessica schneider, cnn, washington. attorneys for hunter biden are calling to a criminal investigation into a computer repair shop owner and several republican political figures. they say private and personal information about the president's son has been good fligh

exploited and weaponized. take a listen to former fbi deputy director andrew mccabe. >> he is recasting himself as victim of cybercrimes and trafficking of stolen property. so you have hunter biden's lawyers bringing these claims to the relevant law enforcement, heads of the relevant law enforcement agencies here, both the department of justice and national security division and in the state of delaware saying hey, our client has been victimized by this trafficking of material without his consent, it may be exceeding the authorization that the repair shop had to access his files, they certainly didn't have this permission to share this information with anybody else and you need to investigate. i think that it is an aggressive but appropriate move at this point. >> in a 2021 interview, hunter

biden said that he didn't remember dropping off his laptop for repair, although the repair shop owner said he did. the controversy surrounding george santos continues to grow. santos has been caught in a number of deceptions about his education, work experience and family is now being investigated by the fbi. they are looking into this u.s. navy veteran's allegation, that santos set up a gofundme account to pay for life-saving surgery for his beloved service dog but took off with the money instead. here is what rich told the fbi. >> i don't want you to hurt me like you hurt me, george. and nobody else should ever have to go through that. i almost killed myself when that dog died. that is why i'm here. i don't want him to be able to do it again. >> he says he is cooperating with the feds and handed over text message exchanges with santos to them. santos declined to comment about

this issue. and now to the new developments to the role of donald trump in a hush money payment scheme. there will be a manhattan grand jury. and this is as prosecutors ramp up their probe into the scheme to stop porn star stormy daniels from going public about a past alleged affair with trump just before the 2016 election. trump denied the affair. and there is no tangible progress in talks over the debt limit, but kevin mccarthy sounded hopeful that he and president biden can reach an agreement long before the deadline that would trigger a default, possibly as early as june. >> i thought the meeting today was a good first start. that doesn't mean that it all comes to fruition, but walking out i can see that it could come together.

i was very hopeful. the meeting was better than i thought just like anything else. >> but each day without a deal brings the u.s. one step closer to default and the consequences would be dire. phil mattingly has the latest on the negotiations. >> reporter: president biden and speaker kevin mccarthy met for more than an hour in the oval office, there was nothing on camera, no statements by the two leaders at least before the meeting. after the meeting the speaker described the meeting that lasted more than an hour as productive, said it was a good meeting, said markets that are concerned about the potential for a u.s. default, first in the history of the country, should feel better about things. why? that still remains an open question. i think the fact that they had a conversation at all seems to be viewed as progress from mccarthy's side of things. but the two prospectives which are wildly tdivergent are still wildly divergent. and while mccarthy said it was a

positive meeting, biden in a meeting said it was a productive discussion, no clear way to lay out a path toward avoiding default at this point in time. still white house officials make it clear that the president is dead set on the idea that there will be no negotiations despite what republicans insist. take a listen. >> i understand that, he has made it an bun tantt abundantly. but is he closing the door. >> what i'm saying is we've been clear when we've been asked if there is room for negotiation, we have said this should be done without any conditions, there shouldn't be a way to go around this to get this done, this is something that congress should act on now. >> karine jean-pierre there eluding that there is no other off-ramp. and so markets have assumed may be a possibility, whether prioritizing payments to certain

creditors, maybe minting a trillion dollar coin, a lot of different theories out there. but white house saying no, congress has to act. and they have about five months to do so. mccarthy says he thinks they can reach a deal before that. but he has not laid out what the republican plan is. and mccarthy said that he told debt ceiling increase is not on the table. so where things go is still an open question. but at this point biden and mccarthy committed to continue speaking on what could be potential economic catastrophe that they are trying to avoid. phil mattingly, cnn, the white house. u.s. financial markets are hoping to keep the momentum going when trading begins on wall street in just a few hours. stock futures are looking to open but of course that could change. stock futures at the moment mi mixed picture. wednesday the dow gained ground late in session but then finished flat.

the nasdaq surged 2% and the s&p 500 closed more than 1% higher. it was spurred by the announcement that inflation is easing and that the federal reserve will be hiking interest rates by just a quarter percent. matt egan has the details. >> the inflation is not over, but it is shifting. the 25 basis point rate increase is the smallest since this fight against inflation began back in march. the fed is still trying to slow this economy down, to knock inflation down, but it has gone from slamming the brakes on the economy to tapping the brakes. and that is an important shift because it lowers the risk that the fed ends up causing an accident either in financial markets or in the real economy or in both. and the fed is changing it tune on inflation a bit. the statement says that inflation remains elevated, but

it also sees that it has eased. and jerome powell declared that the disinflation process has begun and he is pleased to see the prices are cooling off. also during the press conference powell didn't really seem bothered by the january boom in financial markets even though soaring stock prices actually makes it harder for the fed to cool off inflation. markets seemed to like what powell had to say. but powell did still talk tough about inflation, he said that it is way too premature to declare victory. and listen to this clip. >> it is very difficult to manage the risk of doing too little and finding out in 6 or 12 months that we actually were close but didn't get the job done. inflation springs back and we have go back in. and now you really do worry about expectations getting up an cored and that kind of thing. this is a very difficult risk to manage.ancored and that kind of. this is a very difficult risk to manage.

>> and he said that the fed knows how to deal with it. at the end of the day, the fed sounds more encouraged by inflation, the fed is slowing the pace of rate hikes. their job isn't done here, but it does feel as though we are much closer to the end of this rate hiking campaign than the beginning. >> matt egan there for us. and it seems things could get worse for some u.s. retailers. bed bath and beyond is closing nearly 90 locations. "wall street journal" reports that the company failed to make debt payments totaling more than $28 million due on wednesday. bed bath & beyond oig is no stranger to closures. since last february it announced the closure of more than 200 stores. a rescue operation is ongoing in eastern ukraine in the citscity where at least two

people may still be trapped under the rubble. at least eight apartment buildings were damaged and one of them completely destroyed. meantime in a nearby city, there is heavy fighting while pro-russian forces claim to be close to encircling the city. and ukraine is stepping up its fight against what it calls its internal enemy, corruption. they raided locations across the country. and scott mclean is joining us to discuss. this story has been ramping up of late. zelenskyy's vadviceable fight against internal corruption. but reports that we're getting of this billionaire who had close connections to zelenskyy throughout his political career seems to be a whole new level of commitment to this. >> and a lot of this is carryover from things that

officials knew or suspected before the war and now they are finally trying to do something about it. i think that there is recognition in the country that they can't go back to the status quo which was a reputation as one of the most corrupt countries in europe. and frankly, there are still very big problems as we're seeing here today with these raids. and president zelenskyy said that he is willing to fire as many top officials as it takes to stamp out this problem. and as he should. he was elected in part on a promise to do something about corruption. and to try to clean up the situation. and so this latest crackdown includes searches of the state tax service, dismissal of the entire management team of the customs agency and notices of suspicion given to senior officials in the defense ministry, if you can believe that. there were also these officials, former management of two of the largest oil companies in ukraine, that were also told that they were under

investigation for tax fraud allegations totaling 1 billion. one of the other searches done was on the home and office of the head of the kyiv tax authority. and officials there found cash totaling $175,000 u.s., luxury cars, luxury watches, things like that, that person is accused of essentially looking the other way on unpaid tax. and the interesting is the timing because tomorrow there is a ukraine/eu summit taking place this kyiv. they want to show that the eu stands by ukraine as firmly as ever and deepen further our support and cooperation. of course one of the things likely to be discussed is corruption because the eu won't allow ukraine to become anywhere close to being a member unless they can stamp out the problem. >> scott, thank you.

police in pakistan say the taliban in pakistan are responsible for the deadly bombing at the mosque. the attacker was let through a security checkpoint because he was wearing a police uniform. police believe a network aided the bomber and that they are closing in on it. authorities also revised the death toll lower now reporting 84 were killed in the attack, down from the more than 100 they previously said. israeli warplanes bombed central gaza early thursday morning. palestinian news agency reports that f-16 warplanes launched at least five missiles causing a fire and damage to nearby homes. defense forces say that the strike is in response to a rocket launch from gaza claiming its fighter jets struck a chemical and weapons site. and still to come, it is for real this time, that is what nfl legend tom brady says about retiring, again. and plus texas gets hit with more snow, ice and freezing

rain. how the winter storms have gone from bad to worse as road conditions turn deadly and also ahead, an outpouring of grief at the funeral for tyre nichols whose violent death at the hands of memphis police shocked the nation. >> i see the world showing him love and fighting for his justice. but all i want is my baby brother back.. and effortlessly responds to both o of you. our smart sleepers get 28 minuteses more restful sleep per night. proven quauality sleep. only from sleep number.

more now from ryan young. and we have to warn you that some of the images in his report may be disturbing. >> tyre was a beautiful person. and for this to happen to him is just unimaginable. >> reporter: a good-bye to a beloved son. moving tributes and a call for change. >> we have to fight for justice. we cannot continue to let these people brutalize our kids. >> reporter: grieving family and friends celebrating the life of tyre nichols. >> i promise you only thing that is keeping me going is the fact that i is my son was -- i see the world showing him love and fighting for his justice, but all i want is my baby brother

back. >> i'm just trying to go home. don't i deserve to feel safe yrt a young father, artist and young skateboarder. >> why couldn't they see the humanity in tyre? because we have to make sure that they see us as human beings. >> reporter: civil rights leaders, community members and officials including vice president kamala harris. >> this is a family that lost their son and their brother through an act of violence at the hands and feet of people who had been charged with keeping them safe. >> reporter: with the families of other victims of police brutality in attendance.

>> the mothers are here, mother of eric garner of new york is here. they know what it is to sits at a funeral like this. >> reporter: a service painfully familiar for black communities in america. >> we serve notice to this nation that the rerun of this episode that makes black lives hashtags has been capsuled and will not be renewed for another season. >> reporter: the videos of a brutal police beating were released less than a week ago and more videos are expected to be released soon. the city of memphis say they are preparing to release the recordings once an administrative investigation is complete and that the nichols family and their attorneys have already seen the audio and video footage. the investigation has led to firing of five officers and later three fire department personnel, additionally two more memphis police officers and two members of the shelby county sheriff's office have been

placed on leave. contradictions between the video of the fatal beating and the initial police report have prosecutors looking into further charges including charges of false reporting in that police account for every other officer and fire department personnel at the scene. personnel files for the five former memphis police officers charged in nichols' death show several received written reprimands or short suspensions for violating department policies including demetrius haley in november of 2021 for failing to document his role in the tee tension of a suspect who said that she suffered a dislocated shoulder as she was arrested. and desmond mills jr. who received a written reprimand in 2019 for failing to document the use of physical force during an arrest. none of the officers charged in nichols' death had previously been disciplined for excessive force. but as questions linger, the call for change is clear. >> we're going to change this

country because we refuse to keep living under the threat of the cops and the robbers. >> reporter: one of the most emotional parts is when you had tyre's sisters talking about him wanting just to get home, that poem that she wrote spoke to him about just trying to reach home. and you think about him calling out for his mother. a lot of emotion here especially with other mothers coming to this funeral to pay their respects to this family. ryan young, cnn, memphis. >> and memphis authorities are now looking to release a lot more recordings of the tragic incident. speaking earlier to cnn, the lead prosecutor explained how these additional recordings could result in more charges being filed. >> it is fair to say that the incident report that has gone public does not match up on and i will fours with what one sees

when you look at the video. there is a lot of footage, maybe as much as 20 hours, and some of it i think may be more relevant because of the audio and a lot of it depicts things that take place after the beating has already occurred and people are sort of talking afterwards, even after the ambulance takes mr. nichols away. >> the five former officers now charged with nichols' murder expected to be arraigned on february 17. still ahead the u.s. and philippines are deepening their military cooperation concerned over china's growing influence in the pacific regions. we'll have a live report. and plus the latest on the extreme weather hitting the u.s. >> ice and snow continues across the deep south while an epic once in a generation event unfolds across northern new england, some of the coldest air in the entire northern hemisphere will settle into the region by the weekend. i'll have all the details, how much ice we can expect and how cold it will get, coming up.

welcome back to "cnn newsroom." i'm bianca nobilo. let me bring you up-to-date with our top stories. the fbi completed a search of president biden's vacation home in rehoboth, delaware on wednesday but found no classified documents. the white house reiterated the president is cooperating with the justice department's investigation. and the district attorney investigating the death of tyre nichols says up to 20 more hours of video footage from the night of nichols' brutal police beating has yet to be released. the northeastern u.s. is preparing for a brutal cold snap

to sweep in as a deadly ice storm in the south slowly comes to an end. this video was taken near san antonio where the ice coating power lines is so they have is very that it is knocking the lines into trees and causing small fires. according to power outage.u.s., more than 375,000 homes and businesses across the state are without electricity right now. at least three people have died in texas from dangerous road conditions as the snow, freezing rain and sleet continue to fall making travel treacherous. the ice has led to a few surprises. >> crazy thing about this is that this protective net for the trampoline -- so crazy, wow, look at that. fweez geez, that is pretty crazy.

>> some good samaritans have been helping those stranded on the icy roads. a group of ljeep owners banded together to rescue stranded semi truck drivers. >> and what a mess we have across the deep south particularly throughout central texas. this is a scene coming out of austin, and this is what we get when a cold dense layer of air, temperatures below freezing, below zero degrees selcelsius, settles in and it is liquid but then it freezes on contact closer to where you and i live. and that causes problems on the roads, it causes problems on the runways at the airports and of course on the electrical poles and on the trees as well. we've had over 400 reports stretching over a dozen states from texas to the northeast of

ice as well as sleet. of course this has caused some significant travel concerns and several hundred flights delayed or canceled. especially out of the dallas/ft. worth region. some of the ice totals here are impressive. we are talking quarters of an inch of ice. and of course that translates to several people without power. we're talking about 350,000 plus customers. and if you think about each household having three to four people, we could equate to over about a million people in the dark without the ability to potentially heat their homes. through the course of the day, that will be a concern. we still have ice storm warnings san angelo to there is stretching into little rock, some of these starting to expire through the morning hours as we start to get a bump in the temperatures and the precip comes to an end. this is the third wave in this round of what seems to be a never ending barrage of ice and

sleet. we still have a little ways to go, a quarter to half an inch of ice accumulation possible little rock into dallas/ft. worth region, heading south into austin. so that i-35 corridor will be treacherous for hours to come. the other big story across the northeast, we have over 15 million americans with windchill watches, this is for the weekend. and these are not typos, we're talking about some of the coldest air in the northern hemisphere. caribou national weather service office talking about an epic generational event with this blast of arctic air that is settling into northern new england. this is going to rival some of the coldest air from 1982 to 1988 as well. so this is significant. further south this will be some of the coldest air of the past five years in places like boston and new york city. but the potential there for windchill values below negative 60 degrees, and that means the potential for frostbite on your skin in a matter of minutes. bianca, back to you.

los angeles city officials are trying to figure out why electrical power was lost for nearly an hour on wednesday at l.a.x. international airport. the outage brought busy terminals to a standstill and temporarily halted passenger screenings. air traffic control reportedly was not affected by there were some apparent disruptions to departing flights. the white house wants do away with the extra fees that airlines can charge families for sitting together on flights. it can amount to as much as $200 in extra charges and the transportation department has already urged airlines to allow children younger than 13 to sit next to a family member for no additional costs. and the white house wants them to fast track the efforts in a bill that would also target other kinds of charges that are unnecessarily draining money from consumers. among them hidden fees slapped on entertainment tickets bought

online and credit card late fees which officials hope to slash from an average of $31 to $8. president biden said that the bill would give breathing room to american families especially those that are already struggling to pay their bills. and the u.s. will get access to four more military bases in the mill philippines. the announcement came as the u.s. defense chief met with the country's president and foreign secretary. paula hancocks is joining us from seoul. this is very significant. talk to us about the strategic advantage here for the u.s. and the potential ramifications for expansion into a region that is so volatile near the south china sea. >> reporter: what it does is it does give significant footing to the u.s. military forces in the southeast corner of the south china sea. so it is strategic for the united states. it is part of an existing

agreement, it is really an expansion of that. back in 2014, there was a deal the edca, enhanced defense corporation agreement, which effectively allowed u.s. troops to rotate in and out of certain bases in the philippines. there were five originally that were decided upon, it also allowed the u.s. to build infrastructure which both countries and militaries could then use. so they have added four more bases to that and what we have heard from the u.s. secretary of state said that it is part of the effort to strengthen the alliance and it is necessary because china continues to advance its illegitimate claims in the south china sea. so what we don't know, and this is crucial, exactly which bases that they are talking about when they specify these four if it is for example in the northern area, that is just 320 kilometers south of taiwan, so that gives huge strategic benefit to u.s. military troops.

they have said that it is to allow more rapid support for humanitarian and climate-related disasters in the philippines, but they also specified it is to respond to other shared challenges. beijing was likely to be angered, they have been, we've had a comment from the ministry of foreign affairs spokesperson saying it has escalated tension in the region an endangers regional peace and stability and that the u.s. has a selfish agenda. >> paula hancocks, thank you so much. a key video that could undercut alex murdaugh's alibi was played in court wednesday. we'll have the details from the trial next. for the things you touch, nothing kills momore viruses on more surfaces than lysol disinfectant spray.

ftx founder had texted the former general counsel and that he'd love to reconnect and see if they can have a constructive relationship. the judge said he is not allowed to contact any former or current employees without attorneys present until a hearing next week. bankman-fried has pleaded not guilty to fraud and conspiracy charges. and for the first time jurors in the alex murdaugh murder trial got to see a snapchat video his son paul posted just before his death. miles murdaugh has pleaded not guilty to the murder charges. randi kaye has more on this crucial piece of evidence. >> reporter: this is the video prosecutors believe puts alex murdaugh at the murder scene around the time his wife and son were killed. a computer crimes expert said he extracted this video from paul

murdaugh's phone several months after his death. the video shows a dog, but it is not what the jury sees on the video that is critical to the state's case, it is what they hear. >> you hear three different voices in the video. you can tell because they are so different. you can tell that they are different voices. >> reporter: listen closely. >> at this time state will publish that video. it is not under seal. >> reporter: the time that the video was taken is key to the prosecutor's case. >> what team was it recorded? >> the came him came are a begi4 and ends at 8:45:47. >> reporter: the witness said it

was taken about 8:45 the night of the murders. murdaugh had told investigators that he wasn't at the kennels earlier in the night. and his 911 call that night puts him at the scene around 10:07 p.m. but the audio in this video, if it is him as prosecutors suggest, would undercut his allibi and put alex with the victims at the time of the murders and when their cellphones ceased all activity and locked. >> any other outgoing calls made from paul's phone? >> not that i found. >> were there any other calls that were answered, incoming calls that were answered on paul's phone? >> no, sir. >> reporter: alex murdaugh was not identified by prosecutors on the video, but this witness testified that paul was sending the video in question to him that night, so gibson could see his injured dog. he told the court he is sure that is alex murdaugh's voice on

the recoverding. >> did you recognize the voices on there? >> i did. >> tu recodid you recognize the of your second family? >> i did. >> how sure are you now? >> positive. >> 100%? >> that's correct. >> reporter: on cross-examination the defense tried to chip away at gibson's testimony, but it seemed to backfire. >> they heard a voice say no, it is a chicken. do you remember whose voice that was? >> repo >> mr. alex the first time and then also paul. >> reporter: and it got worse for the defense when paul's long time friend said he heard alex on the recording too. >> how sure are you? >> 100%. >> the person whose voice you recognize on there that you identify as alex murdaugh, do you see him in the courtroom here today? >> yes, sir. >> you cacan you point him out e jury? >> he's sitting right there.
