well, what a week it's been. we're going to break down all of the top stories of the week. there's the, as you know, the suspected chinese spy balloon flying over the united states. officials telling cnn they have not ruled out the possibility of shooting it down. plus, president biden taking a bit of a victory lap over the jobs numbers that came in, claiming it proves critics of his policies are dead wrong. also this week, loved ones saying their final goodbyes to 29-year-old tyre nichols, who died after a brutal police beating in memphis. his grieving mother pleading for action on police reform. so what are lawmakers going to

do? and more lies from republican congressman george santos. the latest has to do with now a broadway show. even the great white way can't escape this. we'll break down the new reporting and what it all means for the gop. but let's start with the story we're all talking about this evening, the chinese spy balloon flying over the country tonight. cnn's alex marquardt has the latest. >> reporter: tonight u.s. officials tell cnn the u.s. has not ruled out shooting down the chinese spy balloon once there's no risk to civilians below. but secretary of state antony blinken telling reporters that china's flagrant violation of u.s. sovereignty forced him to postpone his trip to beijing. >> i made clear that the presence of this surveillance balloon in u.s. airspace is a clear violation of u.s. sovereignty and international law, that it's an irresponsible act and that the prc's decision to take this action on the eve of my planned visit is detrimental to the substantive

discussions that we were prepared to have. >> reporter: the state department said that the rare chinese apology today and their claim that the balloon was for civilian purposes, floating off course, did not change their mind. >> i can only imagine what the reaction would be in chunina if they were on the other end. and what this has done is created the conditions that undermine the purpose of the trip. >> reporter: the balloon is flying at 60,000 feet up in the atmosphere, equipped with solar panels for power and a surveillance payload. the pentagon says steps have been taken to protect sensitive intelligence targets beneath it on the ground, which may include silos of minute men 3 nuclear ballistic missiles scattered across montana. u.s. defense officials have been tracking the balloon closely for several days, debating whether to shoot it down, and advising president joe biden it would be too dangerous. >> we assessed that it does not pose a risk to people on the

ground as it currently is traversing the continental united states. so out of an abundance of caution, cognizant of the potential impact to civilians on the ground from a debris field, right now we're going to continue to monitor and review options. >> reporter: satellite and other data indicate the balloon may have originated in central china with weather patterns pushing it out over the pacific ocean into canada and down into the united states, where it has been crossing montana and into missouri. with current conditions, it could continue east and enter the atlantic ocean from north carolina. it can maneuver itself and has changed course, currently floating over the central u.s., officials say, while offering little more on its precise location. >> the public certainly has the ability to look up in the sky and see where the balloon is. >> reporter: and they have, curiously training eyes and cameras toward the skies. >> what planet is that? >> reporter: pilots have also reported seeing the balloon as they flyby at high altitude, reporting balloon sightings to air traffic control.

>> unless this chinese balloon is shot down or somehow brought down, the pentagon does believe it will remain in u.s. airspace for the next few days. they will continue to watch it float across this country, and they say they will keep their options open. meanwhile, back here at the state department, the secretary of state, antony blinken, is saying he will reschedule his trip to beijing when conditions allow. what those conditions are precisely, they will not say. but it is clear, laura, that the temperature between the u.s. and china needs to come down dramatically. laura. >> to weigh in on this story and a lot more, i want to bring in former white house director nayyera haq, and danelle harvin. nayyera, you used to work at the state department. how do you explain this particular move by the chinese?

if it was intentional, why now? this was a critical time when you were going to have secretary of state blinken go. why now? >> this may not have been their intent, and this is something they have done before to have spy balloons up in the air. they can actually fly 30,000 feet higher than most of our capabilities to intercept them, like the different aircraft that we have. so there is an advantage that they have by having these balloons up there, but you're not supposed to have them be visible to the naked eye and by a regular old person in billings, montana. that forces someone like blinken to publicly respond as opposed to diplomatic muaneuvers that could have happened behind closed doors. the united states was walking into this with some strength, having announced four new military maneuvers and

engagements in the philippines. the biden administration has been very strong in the defense of taiwan, so the chinese were hoping to have some tamping down of tensions as well. unfortunately that conversation is not going to happen right now. >> we think about how it's being used now and talked about the idea of what it looks like for the administration to be aware of this, to not shoot it down. there's a lot of nuance in this discussion as to the why. we heard earlier from colonel lei leighton. but when you look at this from a political perspective, it's one thing to have it happen to impact diplomacy. what's it doing on the ground here in terms of how biden is viewed? >> well, he's viewed with weakness. i do believe this was a deliberate move by the chinese. i think nayyera brings up a good

point. so i do think this was a move to say -- by the chinese to say we want to humiliate the united states a little bit. now we have word of a second balloon heading towards south america. we have heard from the former chief of staff of the nfc that we do have the capability to intercept this balloon, to bring it down safely, and to contain it for intelligence purposes. i think that's what we should do moving forward. >> it's interesting as to what our capacities are. obviously one would think there are ways to do so, but we're looking at maybe from the hollywood perspective without all the nuances politically that might be an issue for the existing administration as well. but there's a lot more happening aside from this balloon. this is a time when frankly tensions have been heightened over the several years, especially this last couple weeks with the death of tyre nichols, and the administration likely to focus on this in the upcoming state of the union address. i wonder what you make of where

we are right now and the ability of the government to legislate a solution to what has been a decades, if not century-long problem. >> the ability's always there because we have a functioning government. >> the appetite. >> it's the willpower. we've seen numerous times family, public call for police reforms, various reforms, and they just really don't happen. many of these agencies are large and get federal dollars. that should you be used as some type of inducement for them to reform. not all police departments in this country actually have body-worn cameras or bwcs, and we can imagine if they didn't have a bwc during this case. what type of stories would they make up? we've already seen them make up some stories that was -- >> less than accurate. >> less than accurate, let's just say. the other thing is we have such

a divided congress. we have congress people walking into congress with lapel pins that have ar-15s on it, right? so that really doesn't speak to a congress that's interested currently in protecting health and welfare of the american public. >> well, they would argue, of course, it's about the second amendment in part. congresswoman lauren boebert speaking about this, about whether to be able to bring guns on the floor. the republicans are the majority in the house. technically, even with a slim majority, they technically would have the power to push measures. there is a slim majority in the senate for democrats so whether it gets to biden's desk is -- we've certainly heard from republican incumbents talking about how difficult and saddened they were to see this video. >> yeah, the video is heartbreaking. this man should not be dead. i mean he should be alive today, and these cops need to be held

accountable and prosecuted. i'm glad they've been taken off the force. but senator tim scott, who is a very prominent republican, he has put forward a bill, and he's called for police reforms. but unfortunately it's been the democrats who have been obstructing him because the democrat base, which is the black lives matter base, wants to defund the police. and the truth of the matter is 10,000 black lives are destroyed every year through crime. only 20 lives are destroyed through unarmed police action. but the fact is the vast majority of those occur when there is some sort of attack on the application. i'm talking about -- >> i don't want to interrupt you but i do want to understand. the 20 number you referenced versus the 10,000, i'm assuming you're counting in the fact that it's a disparate impact on black and brown people. >> sure. >> as opposed to white counterparts who are also engaged in criminal activity.

>> a professor from harvard found there was no disparate impact. what i'm talking about -- >> i want to finish your point. >> to my point earlier, senator tim scott, who is a republican, who i very much support, he has called for police reforms. but, again, the democrats are the purists here, and they've rejected his reforms. that's what i would say. i'm sure he would be able to find people in the house who would work with him on bringing some sort of form. >> i'm curious about the stats you referenced because in terms of their representation in police encounters. what are you say, nayyera, especially the notion of defund the police being the substantive base of the democratic party given that biden has never been for it, and he's the leader of the democrats. >> yeah, nobody actually ran on defund the police in this last election cycle as a major candidate or any level, and that is certainly a conversation in progressive circles but not a

democratic party platform. but to your question about numbers and data, what we know from federal law enforcement data and what police departments have reported, "the washington post" has a phenomenal police killing tracker, and that shows there have been 1,200 black lives -- rather, 1,200 police killings in the last year alone. the majority of them have been black, disproportionately black, and this is even without all police departments reporting up. i think it's important to make that distinction between police killings of criminals and the police interactions with civilians and people who have not been charged with a crime, and people who are killed like tyre nichols, who absolutely had no indictment against him, had nothing, no warrant, had simply lost his life because he was pulled over in a traffic stop. so some of the rhetoric can get a little inflamed, and i think that data can help clarify and bring a little bit of reality to the situation, especially given

the fact that we grew up having seen the ramifications of rodney king's beating and having seen george floyd being murdered. that is a legal term now because he was convicted. derek chauvin was convicted of murdering, and we now have charges of murder against tyre nichols. so the idea this is simply something black families make up along the way as opposed to the evidence we have now of body cameras is important for all of us to acknowledge and reckon with, that this is an integral and unfortunate part of american society. to the senator tim scott, he did work with senator cory booker very closely on the george floyd justice in policing act. unfortunately he would not move on qualified immunity and very much in favor of what police unions want, which is to protect police officers from any sense of prosecution. there is no meaningful police reform without holding police officers and police unions accountable. >> i will say --

>> i do take issue with you saying that people don't believe that black families are impacted by this. i think that's very not true of how people are viewing this. i think in terms of the, again, the numbers, the police -- the focus of all this media interest, what about the people, black lives, again, 10,000 black lives who are killed by other civilians? the reason why the police are here is because these cities are dangerous. the fact of the matter is on camera, nancy pelosi, kamala harris, many, many leaders within the democratic party have endorsed this idea of defunding the police. and you're seeing in cities across the country that -- >> i want to interject, carrie. i hate to interrupt you again, but i didn't hear nayyera say the comment that you made, and i also want to be clear that when you're talking about the notion of what about black lives are lost in the hands of crime, i think you missed the mark nearly

entirely because the focus of the police reform conversations, you're drawing a false equivalent between the idea about what a police officer and a fourth amendment violation looks like and a separate issue and apart from crime because i'm sure you would understand and realize that unfortunately violent crime has an impact on more than just simply one race. so are we not to look at what happens to white and latino and asian victims as well because we're also talking about police reform? i think that's the embodiment of being able to walk and chew gum at the same time, but i want to walk and chew gum and listen to an economist for a moment because i want to bring in catherine rampell because frankly i'm not going to pretend to know what's happening with all the measures in the economy. you're the expert when it comes to this area. i'd love to understand a little bit more about this very important issue today. catherine, look, high job numbers, unprecedented. and then there are concerns

about fears anyway of recession. break it down for us. catherine, are you there? oh, she froze. you know what? i want to hear this part, so i don't want to give her short shrift. we're looking forward to a great conversation with none other than bill maher and his overtime. let's go to a quick break. we're going to come back and have these important conversations and expand them even more. we'll be right back. so betty c. barcode beat conductor. ♪ go betty! ♪ let's be more than our allergies! zeize the day. with zyrtec.

job numbers that came in. what do they mean, and why are we still seeing maybe signs that a recession might not be on the horizon now? it's a good thing. >> yeah. you know, it was astonishing. the numbers came in much stronger than expected, stronger than they have been for the past six months in fact. and it's a little bit of a puzzle about why, especially given that there have been these headlines about layoffs in silicon valley, in media, in fedex warehousing, that sort of thing. so there have been a lot of high-profile layoffs but they're just not showing up in the numbers, possibly because everywhere else in the economy, employers are still desperate for workers and are either hiring up or holding on to the workers they already have when they might otherwise perhaps decide to downsize. so it was a big surprise. it was a good surprise to be clear, but it was a big surprise. >> i do wonder if the numbers can be duplicated.

obviously they're shocking. journalists seem to have run out of synonyms for astonishing, astounding. it was a thesaurus google search all day long in trying to describe it. i do wonder if it can be replicated. the federal reserve has raised interest rates, catherine, eight consecutive times to cool this economy. does this job news mean that more rate hikes might be coming? >> that's part of the reason why it's been so puzzling. normally you would expect with the rate hikes that you referenced that the economy would be cooling. the labor market, in fact, would be slowing down. and instead that's not happening, or at least we have a bunch of recent reports suggesting that, in fact, the job market might be heating up. i do think there is a risk that the federal reserve looks at this report and says, hmm, maybe we're not out of the woods yet. maybe it will be more difficult than we had anticipated to get inflation down further because there's so much demand for labor

and there's still a lot of upward pressure on wages. but we don't know yet. i think the fed would be happy to have inflation continue coming down with this level of job growth, but i'm not sure that that's a bundle of outcomes that's available. so it is possible we'll see higher rate hikes in the months ahead, possibly in response to these numbers. >> i heard president biden taking a kind of victory lap. i mean there's no surprise why. these numbers were amazing, astounding, stupendous as they say. and it is ahead of the state of the uniono on tumesday. i'm sure he would love to tout this. but there's still inflation and the average person will still look in their grocery cart and say, how much do these eggs? cost? how much did this cost? how much is my gas? how much is the cost of living more broadly? is he celebrating too soon? >> i think there is a risk of appearing a little bit tone deaf. to be clear, things like egg prices going up are not the

president's fault. we had an avian flu. a lot of chickens died. but none theless, if he takes credit, he's asking the public -- but, yeah, obviously he's going to tout these numbers. he's going to celebrate the fact that inflation is not -- you know, it hasn't disappeared, but it is moderating. it's not as bad as it had been. there's hope it could continue to come down further. look, there are still a lot of risks on the horizon here. we don't know what's going to happen with the war in ukraine. you could see major disruptions again. we don't know what's going to happen with the debt ceiling. that could be an unforced crisis. so i think it's a little bit premature to take a victory lap for anyone, whether you're the president or anyone else. but, sure, celebrate the wins as we see them coming in.

but maintain, you know, a little bit of cautiousness about the outlook going forward and the risks that the country still faces. >> first of all, you know people will still blame the eggs on biden. number two, looking ahead to the grammys on sunday. i think beyoncé can probably take a victory lap already. just putting that out there as part of the conversation. catherine rampell, it's so nice to talk to you tonight. thanks for clearing a lot of this up. i appreciate it. >> thank you. well, everyone, up next, we've got something pretty special for you tonight. the cnn debut of hbo's "overtime with bill maher." stick around.

and now i'm going to turn it over to our friends at hbo for a new segment on our show each week following real time with bill maher, bill and his guests answer viewer questions and bring their unique perspective to topics that are driving the national conversation. we're so excited to bring you this lively discussion first ever friday night. ladies and gentlemen, here is "overtime with bill maher."

>> all right. here we are on "overtime." we're on -- are we really on cnn now? cnn, what did they go nuts putting us on there? no, i'm thrilled. the world needs a good cnn, so i'm very happy that we can help out any way we can. [ applause ] rondo is really the name they call you, isn't it? >> yes. >> i love that name. >> don't have his jumper. >> no, you don't. so the first question is for you. do police need better training in de-escalation tactics? obviously a question on a lot of people's mind this week. >> you know, the actuality is that police are getting some of the finest training that they can possibly get. i think when situations occur like in memphis, it certainly

makes people want to resort to, well, it's the training. and at some point in time we just have to call it. it ain't the training. it's the character of the individual doing those things [ applause ] >> really? it looks like the training sucks too, though, sometimes. >> you're constantly improving training, seriously. >> but why always firing the whole clip? [ applause ] i remember reading some statistic. maybe it was like 10, 15 years ago. like the entire nation of germany, like the police shot 89 bullets in a year whereas that's like one -- one instance, and they're all just firing the whole clip. it seems like once the firing begins, there's no like, okay. >> police departments are really doing a much better job in terms of use of force training. the de-escalation piece is the critical, most important piece because we never want our officers to get into a situation where they may have to use

deadly force. but actually the training is really good. we just have to really start making sure we're focusing on the quality of the individual who's wearing that uniform. >> okay. so this is for you. by the way, the people who are seeing this for the first time, these are from the people. >> oh, boy. >> these questions. i don't even know what these questions are. i really don't. i sound like a magician here. we've never met, have we? this is for you, representative gallego. why are republicans gaining ground with hispanic voters? >> look, it depends what state you're talking about. in arizona, that's not the case. in florida, it's definitely the case. >> nationally, i think it is. >> it's a mixed bag. the reason why -- >> trump did better even after they're all rapists. what the heck is going on there? >> the reason this is happening is because democrats also need to respond to the fact that latinos are working class, and

they have aspirations. they want to be rich. they want to be small business owners. they want to own a home. a lot of times we treat them as if they're any other voting demographic. if we don't talk to them, you will start losing them. first you lose them to non-voters, and then they start voting for republicans because at least they have some other vision. we actually have to talk to them about the american dream, and sometimes we don't do that. that's how we end up losing [ applause ] >> it's also because latinos think for themselves. i mean we have this like, oh, you belong to demographic "x" so you're a natural constituency for party "y." that's just not the way in which people operate. they're not like, i'm a demographic so i must vote for this particular party. i grew up in mexico city. my father was from mexico. even the term "latino" is so wildly misleading.

we don't assume that a brit is an american is a canadian is an australian, but we somehow do assume that a mexican is an ecuadorian, is an argentinian s a dominican. so, you know, learn what this community is about. i absolutely agree with ruben that like it's an immigrant community, and immigrant communities are aspirational. if you have a republican party that's saying we're going to make easy for your small business to operate by not charging you $1.7 million for golden toilets, they're going to respond to that republican message. they're also very christian and increasingly evangelical. >> i think it's a big, big misconception that latinos -- and i do call them because it's a shared culture -- is that they're very religious. if you see some of the younger voters, they are religious in the sense that they're catholic, most of them, but they vote in a very, very liberal manner.

but also latinos vote in very different manners. it depends when you came here. it depends how old you are, how rich you are or how poor you are. the problem with democrats is we treat them as one big monolith, and we only talk to them with about two months left in the election. we need to be talking to them not because they're brown or have a last name that ends in a vowel, that they're going to vote for that. we have to earn that and earn it every cycle. >> besides what you're talking about, that kind of lumping, there's also a lot of brown and black. i hear that term a lot when politicians talk. >> yeah. it's a made-up white thing. >> i don't know if i'd go that far. so when you talk about brown and black people -- >> yes. i feel like -- >> because obviously someone who comes from an upper-class family in india has everything in common with someone who comes

from a working-class family in the yucatan. it's always something that essentially an inherently racist assumption that anyone who is a slightly darker skin tone than you has something in common and belong in an acronym. this condescending view of other people, you're part of the bipac community. >> there has to be some at least understanding, at least there's an actual outreach that's happening and there's an attempt to respect for that. you have the flip side. we're trashing democrats and then at the same time, we have a party that has also not been great to latinos. >> we're trashing everyone here. >> let's trash away. i grew up in arizona. i was there for sb 1070. i was there for sheriff joe

arpaio, and there was a lot of opportunities where republicans had an opportunity to reach out to latinos and they lost it because of those types of actions. so, yeah, sometimes there is this, like, language overreach that is designed to try to get people into your coalition while avoiding some of the real issues that are happening. but it happens on their side. you know, i'll give you a good example. now that i recently announced i'm running for senate, once in a while i'll get a twitter message that, hey, well, why am i going to vote for somebody that's owned by the cartels, or you should be a senator in mexico. i was born in this country. i served my country, and yet i still get accused of not being a true american. it's disgusting, and it's coming from the conservative right. >> yeah, it is gross. okay. this is for the whole panel. is kevin mccarthy, who is your new leader in congress -- not yours. >> he's something, yeah. >> he's something. well, he's the leader in the

house. >> yeah. >> it took 15 ballots, right, which is almost unheard of. has kevin mccarthy already made too many concessions to be an effective leader of his party? well, i guess for people who haven't followed the story, kevin mccarthy, who is a very far-right republican in my view, still was not conservative enough for like the 20 really, really, really right people in the republican caucus, and they stopped him until they made him -- i mean i think they did everything but make him wear the viking hat. >> the dunce cap. >> the dunce cap. >> yeah. >> but like i think one person can get rid of him by objecting to something he does. i mean how can this function? >> because the republican party basically is split between reptiles and invertebrates, right? marjorie taylor greene -- i know there's some honorable exceptions. i'm generalizing. but what kevin mccarthy said is,

i will do anything to be speaker. i will agree to any compromise. at some point he should have said, take this job, marjorie, and shove it. let's give it to hakeem jeffries if this is how you want to play, and then they would have backed out. the tone he set right there is going to be the tone of this congress for the next two years. >> it is dangerous. i'm afraid that he's going to get us into a debt limit situation where we're going to end up, you know, tanking the world economy because he gave up so much power to them to have this title. >> right. >> it's a title now. that's all it is. it has now power. more importantly he has very zero responsibility. but he's going to end up and the country ends up dealing with the consequences of that. it was not a great study in leadership, which none of us should be surprised by. but, you know, this is what we're dealing with right now. >> let's hope the economy won't be tanked. >> can i have one question very briefly? rondo. >> yes. >> what percentage of cops are good cops? >> the vast majority of the men

and women who put on that uniform and serve their communities -- >> he said 99.5 in the show, so i don't know if we could -- i don't know how -- it's just a number we don't have. >> it's a figure of speech. >> that's not a figure of speech. that's a number. >> it was intended that way. it was intended that way. >> all right. we've got to go. thank you very much. [ cheers and applause ] >> you can watch "real time with bill maher" and then watch yt "overtime" on cnn friday nights at 11:30. we'll be right back.

it's the dress that first broke the internet or rather made it into what we know today. that's right, the dress that jennifer lopez wore to the 2000 grammy awards eventually led to the invention of google image search. eric schmitt spoke about this in 2015 saying, quote, people wanted more than just text. we had no surefire way of getting users exactly what they wanted. j.lo wearing that dress. google image search was born. just like that, everyone, the internet changed forever. joining me now, cnn contributor nischelle turner. i'm so glad you're here with me today. you've been covering the entertainment space for a long time. i bet most people had no idea the impact of that dress to actually rethink the way we have google search imaging as well. but just take me back to that time.

what was it like at that moment, remembering that moment in 2000, which i can't believe was 23 years ago now? talk me back there. >> right. well, first of all, it didn't lead me to google image search, but it did lead me to the gym like a lot of other people. when we all saw that dress, i think our collective mouths dropped open. it was such a moment because it was -- you know, jennifer lopez was really kind of transforming into the a-lister that we know her now. and that night cemented it for her. she was still dating at the time sean puffy combs or now as he calls himself brother love. and it was kind of like a coming out moment for them. i remember, you know, hearing her talk about what he thought when he first saw her and also hearing him talk about what he thought when he first saw her. and i mean it was daring. it was gorgeous. i remember there was a lot of conversation. can people show it? do they need ribbons? like what can we show? now, i mean, you know, it's

pretty much tame, we think. but at the time, it was one of the most daring things we've seen. then, you know, to add insult to injury to all of us who are out here, you know, 20 years later, she wore a version of the dress again and looked just as incredible as she did 23 years ago. >> there are some bracelets i can't wear from 20 years ago, nischelle turner. >> girl -- >> let me tell you that. thank you very much. that's okay. but the idea of thinking about that it really changed, even it sparked the idea that people want to see it so badly, it changed technology. here we are on the eve of the new grammys coming up this sunday and a different type of history is going to likely be made. let's talk about who are the people who are the true contenders here because this year's show is going to air on

sunday. and here are the nominees for album of the year by the way. i wonder who you think is going to take the top prize. let's put it on the screen for everyone to see the same. the albums of the year, you've got adele, bad bunny, beyoncé, lizzo, kendrick. you have a lot of people in there, all of them very heavy hitters. who do you think is going to take home the coveted prize? >> well, you know, the conversation is becoming a tale of two women in this category for a lot of people. people are saying once again, you're going to have beyoncé and adele going head to head for album of the year. but, you know, harry styles has gotten a choke hold on all of us and what he's doing in the music space is really kind of transformative all the way around. so i don't think you can really count him out. then you have people like lizzo, who sings from the bottom of her feet to the tip of her head in everything that she does. and you have bad bunny, who is

like the most selling artist that's out there right now. i think that people expect it to be a pretty good night for beyoncé. i mean she's on the verge of becoming the most decorated artist in grammy history. she's nominated for nine gr grammys. if she takes home four of them, she will break that record. one of the categories, she's up against her husband, jay-z. that should be interesting to see how that goes there. but, you know, everybody's waiting and wondering and, you know, seeing if this will actually be once again the year of beyoncé, the renaissance for her. >> well, we shall see. of course i'm sure in congress and capitol hill they're looking at ticketmaster to figure out how those renaissance tickets are going to come through. a lot going on in all these areas. we'll see you soon covering the grammys, i'm very sure. a once in a lifetime spotting. a green comet last seen in the stone age, as in stonehenge, people, making its way around

the earth. i'm going to tell you about it next.
