tonight tiger woods all but certain to make cut. that is making it to the weekend at the genesis invitational in los angeles. it's his first start of the year, his first tournament since last summer and his first time back at the tournament he hosts two years after the car crash not far from there that left him badly injured and away from the sport that he loves and dominated for so many years. that's it for us. the news continues. erin burnett "outfront" starts now. "outfront" next, new cnn exclusive reporting. the u.s. about to put russian intelligence services on notice. this is russia's best hope for winning on the battlefield appears to be crumbling tonight.

plus fox news exposed. new details about just how worried the network was about telling the truth to their viewers. and defying the odds. a nurse from hawaii about to sail solo around the globe before her incurable disease makes it impossible. she's my guest. let's go out front. and good evening. i'm erin burnett. "outfront" tonight, cracking down. cnn is exclusively learning that the united states is planning to crack down on russia and russian intelligence services for efforts to circumvent u.s. sanctions. we understand this will be coming next week and it's as putin's best hope for a win in ukraine is crumbling even more tonight. the wagner group suffering huge losses, now unlikely to meet their goal of capturing the symbolic city of bakhmut by the one-year anniversary of the invasion. in fact, they had thought they would have gotten it a long time ago. already yevgeny prigozhin's wagner group has suffered more than 30,000 casualties. roughly 9,000 deaths. according to the u.s. government tonight. and if that sounds like a lot it is. let me just give you the context

because this really brings it home. the u.s. recently said that wagner has only 50,000 troops in ukraine in total. 30,000 casualties. 50,000 people total. and the complaints from inside wagner are starting to mount. i'll warn you that this video that we're going to share with you here is graphic. but a wagner-affiliated social media channel posted it. it is alleged fighters. they're asking for more ammunition. s we can't verify the authenticity of this video but it does track with everything that we have heard. >> translator: every day we lose hundreds of our comrades in arms. it could have been half as many losses if our military functionaries had supplied us on time with weapons and ammunition and the things we needed. >> and this is something that we are hearing from other wagner fighters now as well. >> translator: we are the artillery unit of wagner pmc. every day we carry out difficult combat tasks, covering assault

groups. at the moment we are completely cut off from the ammunition supply. >> ammunition, ammunition, ammunition. and they are following the lead of their boss. they're not speaking out of turn. yevgeny prigozhin is blaming the russian army for wagner's shortages and failure. >> translator: the advance is proceeding less fast than we would want. why is the advance not fast enough? i think we could have taken control of it by the new year if we hadn't been hindered by our monstrous military bureaucracy and obstacles created on a daily basis. >> alex marquardt is out front in kyiv tonight to begin our coverage. and alex, what is the latest on the ground there tonight? >> reporter: erin, we are seeing the beginning stages of this new russian offensive, and so far it is not going well. one senior state department official on thursday said that it is very pathetic. we are getting that update on the fighting in bakhmut from the white house, that city where for

the past few months ukraine has been locked in a fierce battle with russian forces from the wagner group, made up of mercenaries and convicts. the white house's john kirby saying that in december 90% of the deaths from wagner were convicts. a recruitment tool, he says, that shows no sign of abating. just a week from the first anniversary of the russian invasion, this is according to president volodymyr zelenskyy the toughest fight in ukraine right now. in the eastern city of bakhmut. called a meat grinder by both sides, russian troops from the wagner mercenary group, most of them convicts, continue to be sent in, wave after wave, to their deaths. >> men that he just plucked out of prisons and threw on the battlefield with no training, no equipping, no orthsal command. just throw them into the fight. 90% killed were convicts. we believe wagner continues to rely heavily on these convicts in the bakhmut fighting and that

doesn't show any signs of abating. >> reporter: the battle laying bare the stark divisions on the russian side. with wagner chief yevgeny prigozhin openly blasting russia's official military leadership, saying "they manage soldiers from beauty salons and country clubs." arguing that if there were more of his private troops they would be halfway across ukraine by now. the toll has been so severe on the russian side that according to ukrainian officials regular troops have been backfilling wagner, mechanized infantry and tank units supported by artillery and aircraft. if russia were to take bakhmut, it would change little but be a symbolic victory as ukraine struggles to keep them at bay. president zelenskyy today urging world leaders at the munich security conference to speed up their military aid, comparing the fight to goliath taking on david and his sling. >> we need to hurry up. we need the speed, speed of our

agreements, speed of our delivery to strengthen our sling. speed of decisions to limit russian potential. >> reporter: that russian potential is still significant, with hundreds of thousands of mobilized troops believed to be in reserve and russian president vladimir putin able to call up more to offset his enormous losses. now according to the u.s. state department numbering over 200,000 russian dead and wounded. we should note that ukraine has also suffered tremendous losses, both in this fight in bakhmut and all across the country over the past year. but ukraine and the u.s. are less transparent about those numbers. you now, the suts would like to see ukraine shift its focus from bakhmut to a looming counteroffensive in the south that would be made up of some newly trained troops and armored vehicles. today we learned that 635 ukrainian troops have just finished a five-week training course at a u.s. base in

germany. a second phase has now started with 710 new ukrainian troops. much of the training focused on combined arms and maneuvers with those armored vehicles that the u.s. believes will be critical in taking back territory from russia. erin? >> alex, thank you very much. from kyiv tonight. and out front now, michael bacerciu the senior fellow at the atlantic council based in the southern ukrainian city of odesa. and retired air force colonel cedric leighton. thanks so much to both of you. colonel leighton, let me start with you with what alex was saying, that russia's struggling to get a new offensive going, a battered military, the tremendous losses obviously from wagner being a part of that. what would a massive russian offensive look like with the military that they have now? you know, presuming that they have tens of thousands or more troops that they're about to commit to it. >> yeah, erin, that's a really interesting question. in normal times you would say a russian offensive would look

like a huge mass of soldiers going forward with lots of tanks, helicopters and air support. the air support is definitely lacking. at least it has been lacking so far. you also have a situation where there are really problems backfilling losses the russians have had that alex mentioned in his report. so you're going to see probably this attempt to like you see in bakhmut and in other places along the front-w where there are going to be these probes that are moving forward but those probes are not going to be effective unless they find certain weaknesses in the ukrainian lines. but generally speaking it's going to be an attempt with a lot of artillery, with a lot of movements forward, but those movements are going to be stopped pretty much at the frant l front line at this point. >> michael, colonel leighton says you would have a lot of air support and there hasn't been that thus far. that's true. but we do understand today in a

meeting with alexander lukashenko lukashenko promised putin belarus is ready to produce fiesht jets for russia. we know from western intelligence that they have been putting a lot of fighter jets on belarusian bases and u.s. intelligence is saying or western intelligence is warning of a massive air assault. it's unclear how that would play in but all of those pieces are in place. and you say russia's currently using balloons in some way related to this. what more do you know about that? >> right. so from ukrainian media and other sources, this is basically a cheap russian tactic to distract ukrainian radar, to confuse its air defense systems, and to lure the ukrainians into wasting ammunition on these balloons. but i think what we're seeing is another attempt by russia to ratchet things up, and i don't like to be the bearer of bad news but i think what we're looking at right now, erin, is another attempt by russia taking advantage of that gap between when pledges of western tanks were made and when the tanks actually arrive to do another major assault from the north,

from the east and from the south. it could be devastating to ukraine. but being in ukraine as long as i have, i know that the resilience there is very strong. the western weaponry is coming. but putin i think is a man who cannot accept defeat. and i think it was mitch mcconnell who said today that unless he's pushed back we can expect not only other dictators to be emboldened but this to turn into a very, very expensive war because we will continue to fight this from many, many more fronts. >> yeah. and what this offensive could look like of course is the crucial question. colonel leighton, to this point that michael's making about the weaponry coming in. you've got a bipartisan group in congress. you mentioned senator mcconnell. calling on the biden administration to send f-16 fighter jets to kyiv as soon as possible. there's a gap of time as michael pointed out. tanks are promised, those abrams tanks are not coming anytime soon, they're just not ready. biden has resisted the f-16s and he said it would seriously escalate the situation.

this has been from the very beginning. did the u.s. wait too long on this front for the f-16s, for air? >> yes. it absolutely did, erin. what should have happened is about two months into this war starting from february of last year we should have started the training of f-16 pilots or at least the transition of ukrainian pilots into f-16s. that would have then given the ukrainians time to get familiar with the platform, be able to employ the platform and also get familiar with the avionics. plus it would have also allowed them to train maintenance troops as well as the intelligence forces and radar operators in order to effectively employ this weapons system in a combined arms manner. and that would be the kind of thang w thing that would have been necessary. at this point we're going to be racing against the clock in several different ways and that's going to be very tough on the ukrainians. >> and michael, all in the u.s. has spent about $100 billion pledged in aid to ukraine.

zelenskyy said he's going to appoint a new leader to the anti-corruption agency there. he's fired -- there's been two sort of big purges. one last summer and one recently of officials for corruption. most recently tied to war supplies procurement. so how big of an issue is this? >> absolutely huge v huge, both inside and outside of ukraine. outside of ukraine the world swachg how ukraine is conducting itself militarily but also spending these billions in aid. and they have to be spent very carefully. so these allegations come at a very bad time. and by the way, they were uncovered by ukrainian journalists. secondly, i speak to a lot of ukrainians both inside and outside of ukraine, and the one thing they want other than russia being completely pushed out of ukraine and defeated is that war on corruption to continue to the very end. it will take some time. but i think that the ukrainians who for example left ukraine, millions of them, especially the young ones, the ones in high tech, for example, want to come back to ukraine, which has built back better where corruption is

no longer a daily fact of life. zelenskyy, credit to him for cracking down as he did, but there are still a lot of officials, erin, who were allowed to gracefully resign. he really has to come down hard on this. >> thank you very much. michael and colonel, appreciate your time. and next, the stars at fox news peddled election lies to their viewers while privately mocking the claims that they knew were bogus. and it's all documented. so what is the network doing about it tonight? and senator john fetterman not eating in recent weeks. he's lost a lot of weight. it's part of why he checked himself into the hospital for depression. and we have more new details this hour. plus it's now or never for a woman who is about to sail around the world alone while she still can. she'll be here tonight to tell you her incredible and inspiring tale. that goes beyond. introducing new dove men with 72h protection plus care for your skin. so you can forget about your underarms and focus on being unforgettable. new dove men forgettable underarms, unforgettable you. get refunds.com powered by innovation refunds can help your business get a payroll tax refund,

something different. and carlson even last night said this. >> there are so many unanswered questions, some of them lingering. how, for example, did senile her m hermit joe biden get 15 million more votes than his former boss, rock star crowd surfer barack obama? that would seem to defy the laws of known physics and qualify instead as a miracle. was the 2020 election a miracle? honestly, we don't know. >> all right. out front now, phillip bump, oliver darcy and scott jennings. it is amazing, scott, that here we are almost 2 1/2 years later and he's still saying that. >> yeah. well, we learned in the text messages that they live in fear of their audiences and they live in fear of donald trump. they made it clear to each other in their conversations. that's why they continue to do it. number one. number two, it even got so bad, and i was most interested frankly that they tried to get one of their reporters fried, jackie heinrich, who i think is

one of the best reporters in washington and does a terrific job. they were trying to get rid of her because she was going on television and doing actual truthful reporting that they thought was going to -- >> tucker l er literally said gr fired after she put out a tweet fact checking the claims on dominion voting systems saying this is false. >> what they do is entertainment. it's like wwe. what jackie does is actually report the news. and you had the wwe people wanting to get rid of the reporter. i found that to be really despicable. i hope dominion gets something out of this. money, gets their name back or whatever. because they certainly deserve it. >> so some of the court filing, there's an exchange between tucker carlson and laura ingraham. carlson says "sydney powell is lying, by the way. i caught her. it's insane." ingraham sporngsds "sydney is a complete nut. no one will work with her. ditto with rudy." carlson replies it's unbelievably offensive to me, our viewers are good people and they believe. and i guess that's where he is now. just fuel what they believe.

give them what they believe rather than the truth. >> yeah. what's fascinating -- and that's exactly the motivation. right? i mean, scott's totally right. that fox news spent the entire trump presidency deciding that they would go along with his lies, just acquiesce to everything he said because they knew it would make their base mad if they bucked him. then they were faced with this scenario after the election where it's like do we side with reality or do we side with the audience? they chose to side with the audience. tucker carlson did, he called out sidney powell on air in november 2020 saying this is nonsense, we asked her for evidence, she couldn't provide it, quietly he said it was total garbage. on the air he says we hope she comes up with it. and what happens two weeks later? back on the air. she gets kicked off trump's team but fox welcomes her back. because that was it, what's what the audience wanted to see and that's what they were going to deliver. >> and publicly, to make it clear, privately you've got he's a nut, this is ludicrous, liar and then publicly sean hannity, tucker carlson, laura dane ingraham, all of whom were saying these things privately said these things.

>> the outcome of our presidential election was seized from the hands of voters. >> every american should be angry. you should be outraged. you should be worried. you should be concerned at what has happened in the election, in the leadup to this election. >> knees election challenges are still going on. and disturbing irregularities have been found and must be investigated to the fullest. >> you know, for someone who spent my entire career trying to get people to vote, particularly folks who don't particularly care for the process to go out and vote, this has made our jobs exponentially more difficult. at the heart of this is the accusation that you're going to -- someone going to vote using that voting machine didn't get that vote counted or it was counted toward some other candidate. that is a basic sort of -- basic framework of our democracy to be able to cast your vote and know that vote is going to get counted. it makes our job exponentially harder. that initial lie has

metastasized into this, to borrow a legal term, conspiratorial network of people running for office and getting elected based on that lie. resources being distributed to people to make sure they have the same message when they go out and talk about this lie. and so when i look at this, and talking about the audience, they have so little respect for their audience that they are lying to this day about what happened. and we may never have found it out were it not for this lawsuit. >> wink wink, nod nod, miracle. 24 hours ago, oliver. >> yeah. it shows that -- what this network is. it is not a news network. news networks present the truth toar this audiences. they knew the truth. we know they knew the truth because of these messages. they decided not to president the truth to their audiences. they had like you said such little disregard for their audience that they decided to lie to them to keep this going because it was good for their business and that really exposes at its core what fox news did in

this case but what they do on a daily basis. >> and when you point -- you he know, the money part of it. one of the comments that tucker carlson made about firing jackie heinrich, right? was the stock price is going down. this is doing harm. right? it was just that's what this is about. >> and i do think it's important, though, to point out the difference between opinion hosts and what jackie heinrich and other journalists do. i mean, this is true for all the cable nets, right? >> yes. >> there are people who have opinions and there are real journalists who go to work every day. she was doing her job and just -- i just keep going back to that idea that they were going to dump somebody who was trying to tell the truth and trying to tell the viewers the truth and they saw that as a threat to their business model. but it -- you know, they're still doing it today. and let me tell you, it's influential with republicans. they believe it. >> right. >> and i wonder sometimes if they had in the beginning said you know what, it's all bunk, he lost, i don't like it but he lost -- >> well, rupert murdoch apparently put that very idea out there. what about if they all go out --

i'm looking for the exact words. but he says to suzanne scott on january 5th, it's been suggested our prime three should go out and say something like the election is over and joe biden won. that statement would go a long way to stop the trump myth. didn't happen. but it was actually talked about. >> yeah. i think they were afraid of donald trump or others opening up a competitor to them. i think ultimately was what i took away from it. and so they ultimately decided not to do it. >> just very quickly, i wonder even if they had said that would their viewers have believed it. and i wonder -- >> you can't -- you reap what you sow. >> because donald trump said go to another network and a lot of them did. so what they're doing is looking for another opportunity to reaffirm a belief that they already had. and that's what's really scary here, that they're digging deeper into that mindset. >> and there's this one moment, and i say this because i mentioned this earlier, i remember this day. i came originally from the business journalism world. so neil cavuto is a very respected business journalist, a

respected journalist at fox. he had this moment where he cut off scale yooeg mcenany, the press secretary for the white house. he cut it off during a press conference. she was pushing baseless allegations of fraud. and he got to the point where he's sitting there, powers that be are against him, he refuses to take it. i just want to play the moment of what happened. here it is. >> you don't oppose an audit of the vote because you want an accurate count. you don't oppose our efforts at sunlight and transparency because you have nothing to hide. you take these positions because you are welcoming fraud and you are welcoming illegal voting. we want every legal vote to be counted and we want every illegal vote -- >> whoa, whoa, whoa. i just think we have to be very clear she's charging the other side is welcoming fraud and welcoming illegal voting. unless she has more details to back that up, i can't in good countenance continue showing you this. i want to make sure that maybe they do have something to back that up but that's an explosive charge to make. >> so he stops taking it. and then phil, what happens is the brand team at fox

corporations notifies senior fox news leadership of the brand threat by his action. they actually send a note saying this is a threat to the brand. >> and not only the brand team but roz shaw who was a veteran of the coms team at the trump white house. in part because they overlap doing fox news and the trump administration itself was so incestuous, right? what's fascinating to me about that cavuto segment there is contrasting with maria bartiromo, who was considered a very credible journalist and who in the trump era went totally sideways. she was the first one who first had powell on the air on the fox news. she was the one who let donald trump spew lies about the election for 45 minutes on november 8th. and she's rewarded within the network. this is someone who's cited multiple times in the dominion lawsuit. she has a much better position now with the network. which again reinforces this is what the business side of fox is, it is telling people what they want to hear in agreement with what donald trump is saying. zmaz how you get rewarded. >> and it seems that a lot of people are fine with sort of i

guess checking their sense of right and wrong at the door, oliver. >> i was reading these documents and wondering where their moral compass was. how do they go to bed at night knowing they are basically lying to millions of people? and i think what was so damning about these documents is it showed that the very little amount of journalists over at that network, they were not in the driver's seat. the people that were in the driver's seat was tucker carlson, sean hannity, laura ingraham, and they were willing to lie and they are still willing to lie to their audience to this day. >> all right. thank you all very much. i appreciate it. and next, senator john fetterman h may be in the hospital for a o'month or longer and we have new reporting on what that may be. and sailing around the world alone. how many people do that? almost no one, right? skill, stamina, courage, incredible bravery. you've got to be bold. and the woman you're about to meet is going to do it is navigating a challenge that may be even tougher than that of circumnavigating the world. the right plan promise from unitedhealthcare she got a medicare plan expert to help guide her with the right care team behind her.

pennsylvania. >> about one in three patients who have a stroke will have depression at some point over the course of the year. >> reporter: fetterman remains at walter reed hospital after checking himself in on wednesday night. his symptoms had grown severe. a source tells cnn he had lost a significant amount of weight. not eating properly or drinking enough fluids, contributing to light-headedness that forced him to be admitted to george washington hospital last week. after being discharged fetterman met with capitol physician brian monahan who later suggested treatment for clinical depression. this source says fetterman's stay could last weeks or more than a month as doctors search for the right mix of medication. >> we know that senator fetterman pushed himself so hard in those weeks after the stroke when in an ideal world he would have been recovering. >> reporter: just a few weeks before his stroke cnn caught up with fetterman in rural pennsylvania. where he engaged in extended exchanges with voters. >> hello, everybody.

hey, hey. >> if we legalized it would create tens of thousands of jobs in pennsylvania. >> how much weight is on your shoulders knowing the senate majority could come down to you? >> i don't look at it that way. i just -- i come back to what i've always said. it's like if you trust me with your vote i'm always going to try to deliver. >> reporter: but after the stroke fetterman had difficulty communicating. having to rely on closed captioning at a high-profile debate. >> and let's also talk about the elephant in the room. i had a stroke. >> reporter: his struggles were apparent. >> i do support fracking. and i don't -- i don't -- i support fracking and i stand -- and i do support fracking. >> reporter: in the senate fetterman walks the halls with aides who carry around a tablet that helps him understand what people are saying. and just hours before checking himself in at walter reed briefly questioning a witness at a hearing. >> are there any barriers, any specific kinds of special

barriers in -- for workers in the fossil fuel sector that -- to learn skills in renewable fuel production? >> reporter: last week when he was in the hospital his colleagues noting his absence. >> i think we should take a moment and just pray for his health. >> thank you, manu. and out front now, general michael hayden, the former director of the cia and the national security agency. he suffered a massive stroke in november of 2018 and also has afashphasia now which affects h ability to communicate. the general of course, anyone watching you know him, long-time member of the cnn family, someone our viewers know well. and general, i'm very grateful to you for speaking about this. i do want to ask you about your experience because i think you give inspiration and hope to so many. first, though, as manu was just speaking about senator fetterman, reporting that he's not eating, that he is losing some weight, doctors do say that

about a third of people who suffer from strokes have some form of depression in the year afterwards. did you experience anything like that? >> i didn't -- no, not exactly. but even today, even this week i'm thinking about my hand. you know, i'm looking at it and saying, wow, that doesn't work and it doesn't work ever again, and i'm feeling bad that i have to say no, let's go and do something more. and that's what i -- what i was doing. so it's a problem. but i think i can do it. now, the senator, he has the same problem. and it's hard but i think it will be okay. >> and how do you get through those moments? as you say, when you look at your hand even today and you feel that sort of i guess grief

or sadness. how do you manage that? >> well, for me it's my wife and kids that's very important. they come and talk with me and so on. the grandchildren as well. so that's very good. it's very good. we have things to do on the weekend and that's also very good as well. >> so it has been for you a little over four years since you suffered a stroke. and i know that it happened suddenly, as they do, in your home. you were getting ready one morning. your wife called 911. and for you, general, you spent two months in the hospital. i know that the stroke affected the entire right side of your body. and you're talking about, just even here in this conversation, going to the stroke center, still going through the therapy. it seems as if a recovery is

sort of a permanent thing. how are you doing now day to day? >> better and better. for example, about a year and a half ago i got -- i got -- i'm sorry, what i wanted to say is i can drive now. so that's very good. so i'll go to pittsburgh for football games. and i do it all the time. so you know, my wife or my son helps me, but we do many times. so that's very good. >> earlier this month i know that you made your first on-stage appearance during your -- since your stroke. >> yeah. >> and i can only imagine the courage that takes. now, at the event you were talking about what keeps you awake at night. and you said china. and obviously we're in this moment now where tensions feel higher than they've been in decades after president biden

ordered the u.s. military to shoot down that chinese spy balloon. today beijing slammed biden saying he was escalating the crisis, disregarding international laws. where do you think this is headed? >> well, i don't know. and that's the problem. i think it'll be -- the next 100 years the united states and china. do we do something about it that is good or not? and i'm really worried about it. i talked to the dni two years ago and i said it's china. and the second one is china. and the third is -- oh, it's china. and it's very important. now, what's going on now in ukraine, that's pretty important too. and al qaeda is important. but china is the most important. >> general hayden, i very much appreciate your time, and i

tonight a trip around the world and a race against time. jenny decker is a 38-year-old nurse from hawaii. she's putting her job and her life on hold to sail around the world solo. decker suffers from a rare disease called charcot marie tooth syndrome. and she dreams of being the first person with cmt to make this trip. and it will take three to five years. cmt is a disease that weakens the body's muscles. it affects coordination, making even the most simple things,but anything difficult. it affects only 126,000 people in the united states and right now has no cure, and it is degenerative. jenny decker is out front with me now. jenny, i know you're taking this

on for yourself and also to raise awareness because as i said right there it has no cure. you want to change that. and i know that is a part of why you're doing this. but what you're doing is something that, i mean, gosh, so few people in the world would dream of it in any situation. what inspired you to take this on? >> it's kind of become a life goal of mine to create awareness for this disease, also known as cmt, because i was misdiagnosed for so long. and as an icu nurse, a medical professional, there's a lot of medical professionals i know that have never even heard of this disease. so how are we supposed to raise funds for reach for a cure when no one's even really heard of it. so just that is not only to inspire other people with cmt or any disability for that matter, that you can do anything you put your mind to, no matter what your physical limitations are.

but it's to help create awareness. and just bring a lot more light to this disease. >> and jenny, you know, as a nurse you have great skill and great empathy and you have seen people in their worst moments lose so much. and i guess that gives you perspective that many of us don't have. but i know you've been living with this since you were young. your mother also suffers from it. she uses a wheelchair. can i just ask you what it's like to know where this is going and to see your mother dealing with it. >> yeah. you know, i've thought about this a lot and i've talked about this a lot from the gentleman that i bought the boat from that i'm about to sail around the world. he just completed a world record

sail around the world as the first double amputee to do so. he was hit by a drunk driver and lost an arm and a leg. and his life changed in one day. and dustin reynolds and i have talked about this a lot, that i've known that i have this internal stop clock of when i'm not going to be physically independent anymore. even within the last year. even when people don't see me for a few weeks they notice differences. and i don't know what's worse, having your life changed in one moment or knowing where your physical limitations or independence is headed and watching my mother lose some of that independence and the pain and the surgeries. but instead of taking that as a downfall or being scared, i'm trying to turn it around as i'm going to do everything i possibly can to live the best life that i can and try to inspire as many people while

doing so in the process. >> and i know you're going to be taking your dog with you. your only companion. i mean, which is -- it's a wonderful thing. a six-pound maltese, right? romeo. >> yeah. >> how have you prepared for this and when are you leaving, i guess. >> yeah, so i'll be departing in may, june for the southern hemisphere weather season from hawaii. and i actually set this goal five years ago. so i have been working towards this financially for five years, taking travel nurse assignments, getting debt-free, paying cash for a boat. i had a previous boat. sailing as much as i can. i am an avid water woman. but something of this magnitude to put it into perspective, a little over 300 people have ever solo sailed around the world. and i'll be one of one in that gr group.

so mentally, physically it is a huge undertaking. and i haven't taken it lightly. and i do feel prepared now. so yeah, it's been a long journey and i can't believe the last few months are almost here for departure. but yeah, there's a lot of grit, a lot of sacrifices, and i'm, you know, financially personally trying to do it all myself. so yeah, just determination, i guess. >> well, jenny, we're going to be rooting for you and following along with you, and we're grateful to hear your story and good luck. >> thank you so much. >> and we will be following jenny. and next, how a father and his daughter survived being buried alive for days in the earthquake in turkey. the house whisperer! this house says use realtor.com to see homes in your budget. you're staying in school, jacob! realtor.com.
