finally tonight more than 10,000 tons of garbage. filling the streets of paris. the mounds of trash growing as sanitation strike the work plan from french president emmanuel lecrone to raise the retirement age. pushing through parliament without a full vote. hundreds of protesters in the center of the city leading antigovernment chance. this strike is blocking incinerators. it is not just sitting in the streets for days and days sparking sanitary concerns and the protests are ongoing. so much for the scent of paris in the springtime. back for joining us. 360 begins right now. >> they have taken children from the country they invaded posted about doing it. even health televised celebrations showing the victims. now russia's president and the official overseeing the first deportation of thousands of kids from ukraine to russia.

in a capacity orwellian for children's right are both facing war crimes charges in the international criminal court. which is issued warrants for their arrest. >> is the message today nobody is above the law? >> i thing the message must be the basic principles of hu humanity. nobody should fear they have a free pas s quick that is the icc chief prosecutor. we spoke to him at the start of this invasion when he was in ukraine and reported extensively throughout the invasion on russia's war on ukrainian people and identity. tonight an exclusive conversation with him on his history making day along with coverage is only cnn can of the impact. first so very quickly here is what president biden just said about the icc decision to cnn jeremy done.

>> i thing it is justified. the question is recognized internationally by us. i thing it makes for a very strong point. >> for that was go to cnn chief international correspondent clarissa 40 got the exclusive interview. she joins us from the hague. clarissa, a historic interview for you? >> reporter: historic interview for us and a historic day for the international criminal court. the icc. when we sat down and had an extensive conversation with the chief prosecutor. khareem khan is of the first on the sitting head of state of a permanent member of the united nations security council has been issued with an arrest warrant by the icc. and it is all the more significant because this is not happening years after the war in ukraine finished, jon. this is happening months after it started. and what khan is hoping is this will set a new president to show that the wheels of justice can

turn quickly. take a look. quick this feels like a historic moment? >> i thing it is a very important moment as the president said his words have been issued. and sh>> and shows that individuals, whatever that possession. that don't have a free pass. and that the law binds us to basic principles. i thing it is important for that reason and many others. >> reporter: what is the next step, what happens next? what the next step is that laws have to be circulated and states would have to consider whether they can enforce those warrants. but also continue our investigation since many of these crimes in ukraine we are looking at give us other options. if the warrants are not complied with for confirmation hearing in absence of the future. >> reporter: do you believe it is possible one day we will see president vladimir putin?

>> i thing there are those who thing it is impossible do not understand history. major nazi war president, former president charles taylor, from rwanda all of them were mighty powerful individuals and yet they found themselves in courtrooms whose conduct was being adjudicated over by independent judges. and that gives cause for hope that the law would hover no however how difficult it may be the lot is supreme. >> reporter: is the message today nobody is above the law? what the basic should be the basic principles of humanity for everybody and nobody should feel they have a free pass. nobody should feel thing and act with abandon. and definitely nobody should feel that they can act and commit an aside crimes against major warm crimes with impunity.

with an international community court and customer international law. and there are many different forms around the world that is reducing the scope in the room for impunity. and fewer and fewer safe havens. i thing that is an important lesson we need to render effective. >> reporter: it feels significant we are talking about this in terms of months and not years. often the feeling is that international law, particularly, is a slow moving beast. was that very intentional for you to start these investigations moving as quickly as possible? >> absolutely, not because it is ukraine. i have been representing victims for 30 years. and i have been first and international law is effective

in some cases. in many cases. but i thing the icc has been pedestrian in some respects and we need to accelerate. i thing that is important if we feel the law is for us as prosecutors, as judges, as defense council, victims, lawyers. and we don't feel the weight of responsibility with people in refugee camps, crossing borders with plastic bags and gun pellets. and fleeing with fear we are not fulfilling our responsibilities under the law. it also as members of humanity as well as we should. >> reporter: this is about justice for victims not geopolitics? >> absolutely it must be. the law must be especially criminal law must be about victims and survivors of humanity. >> john: such an important discussion, clarissa. what has the reaction been from the kremlin from these charges?

>> clarissa: perhaps unsurprisingly, jon, it has not been positive. we heard fromdmitry dmitry pesks of course president putin's first person. he said essentially that the warrants are outrageous and unacceptable. we also heard from maria za zahazarev, is that they have no meaning because russia is not actually a signature of the icc royal statute. and therefore does not fall under its jurisdiction. and we heard from the woman herself. the high commissioner for children of women maria lvova-belova what a sarcastic response and it is great the international community appreciates our work. so sardonic but beneath that one can be sure there is an understanding that is the very least this is an irritant that certainly will have some concrete impact. whether or not we see president

putin in the dock it is a significant day, jon. >> john: in theory, or on paper it limits where putin can go around the world. explained that. >> clarissa: basically there are 123 that. >> clarissa: basically there are 1 that. >> clarissa: basically there are 123 nation states. that do participate with the icc and the royal statute. that is about two thirds of the countries in the world. some very big ones do not, not just russia. chyna, india and of course the u.s. can president boudin to go to the g-20 in india coming up? he still can. can he potentially go to the united nations general assembly in new york city? potentially, yes he could. and also, it is important to underscore even for those countries to our signature that does not mean necessarily that they would have to enact those arrest warrants. was on the back in 2017 from south africa.

when the sudanese dictator omar rashir came there was an expect he would be arrested they did not happen. decided he was the head of state and south africa has its own laws pertaining to heads of state having diplomatic immunity. but make no bones about it, jon. the reality is president putin's world is shrinking. >> john: just so people know the countries in red are the countries who have signed on. the countries not in red heaven that does include india, chyna, russia, the united states. very big country not part of it. of course in an address last night ukrainian president zelenskyy that the day will come when all the perpetrators of war crimes against ukrainians will be brought to justice in the health of the international and national court. how is this decision? how have these charges been received today in ukraine? >> clarissa: with grea t

positivity, unsurprisingly. ukraine is also not one of the signatures of the icc. and yet they have opened up their country and said they have given full jurisdiction to their territory. because they understand the importance of having some of these crimes paid attention to. the chief of staff of the presidency said this is an important first step. but it is just a first step, basically. a lot more needs to happen. this is not one single war crime being investigated. that is something also important to emphasize, john. the icc is looking into multiple allegations and has multiple investigations going on. this is just the first step, john. >> john: will talk more about that next hour. clarissa, thank you. we will see much more of your interview coming up. but this warrant, as we just mentioned and you see on the map. in theory narrows president boudin's world two thirds which may not matter to him.

as far as the countries he cares to, you may go to the president. chyna falls in that category president zelenskyy comes next month. and we have more from farid z zakaria. we hear what khan x comes next and we have more from farid zakaria. we hear i comes next month. and we have more from farid zakaria. we hear what khan said nobody gets a free pass what are your response? >> it is a good idea but people need to understand. it is not going to make any difference legally anytime soon. russia is not a signatory to the treaty of rome that establishes the international criminal court. there is no possibility the russians will ever submit to this. some people thing it means putin will not be able to travel abroad, that is highly unlikely. the president of sudan has been traveling lots of places ever since he was invited. he was indicted for the crimes in dafur.

on the other hands it is a moral signal. it is a signal that the west is taking this is seriously. that a lot of democraticomar al-bmany non-democratic governo and signatories are taking this seriously. and so it as a certain kind of moral pressure. but i thing you need to understand the international cour t is not like a regular court. >> john: the united states, what do you thing the u.s. connection will be to this? how much will the u.s. help here? >> that is a really good question, jon. the u.s. is not a signatory to the court. and generally has been wary of getting too involved. in this particular case the state department wanted to provide american intelligence to the court to help them. the pentagon did not because the pentagon worries that if an american soldier, you know, is taking part of some military action. what if that soldier or that battalion is brought to the court to alleged crimes.

so the pentagon has always been much more wary. i thing the administration on the whole has decided directly that this is a case where the moral pressure puts on boudin. the moral box it puts him in his worth the cost of cooperating. >> john: it is interesting there is more nuance from the u.s. perspective that you might thing. let's talk about when this is happening. this is happening days before chinese leader xi jinping would meet with vladimir putin. is this the fact that putin has been charged with war crimes by the tribunal. that have any impact on these meetings? >> it won't have much of an impact but it has an impact of the optics. the chinese are trying to make it out as this alliance is solemn and unyielding. there is a reality of the public atmospherics behind it. and the fact the guys have just been invented by the international terminal court

does not help. chyna is trying to present itself is both neutral and an ally of russia at the same time. neutral what i want to say they are the ones not wanting to take sides. and from the alliance. i thing public matters xi. for. >> john: you brought up the number one question we get from the international criminal court which is okay, how will they enforce it? what difference will it make to vladimir putin's life? do you thing there would be a country he would be able to go to? some conference he would not be able to attend because of this? >> there are probably countries he could not go to but he would not go to them anytime soon. he will not come to the united states anytime soon. in a sense it punctuates the reality that the world really has been divided.

and russia is really isolated. i do not thing you will see putin at conferences in western european countries. or european union capitals anymore. i don't thing he will come to the united states. i thing that was probably moving in that direction anyway. but this was a mark on it. is it possible he could go to india? yes. will they go to chyna? for sure. >> john: may be he draws moral lines even if there are not physical barriers to him in the future. thank you. >> my pleasure. >> john: a quick reminder to stay tuned will have much more on this at the top of the hour. more from clarissa words interview with kremlin and the kremlin official who runs his child abduction program. and the conversation with the yale researcher's team documented all. that and more in the special hour of 360 coming up at nine o'clock nine eastern. next a bombshell in the trump document case. the judge ordering one of the former president's attorney, this guy, to testify. taking the incredibly rare of denying attorney client privilege under the crime fraud

ruling she said prosecutors have met the threshold for the crime fraud exemption to it. exemption is a. many the prosecutors were able to show to judge howell's satisfaction that cochran discussion with the former president might've been part of an ongoing or future crime. there is also this just in to cnn. cnn jon miller found out law-enforcement agencies in new york are preparing how to handle a possible indictment of the former president next week. sources tell jon the discussions have how to navigate the indictment by the attorney. and is fingerprinting and arraignment. here with the federal story also cnn political analyst and senior respondent, former republican in january 6th-member adam kinsinger he is a cnn commentator. and cnn senior analyst and former federal prosecutor.

so, caitlyn, this is your reporting. what more are you learning about the conversations prosecutors want to ask about? >> they want to work around attorney client privilege. they talk to a frevan why they made the case for this exemption here is a wanted to ask him questions and not have them cite attorney client privilege which is what he did when he testified the first time. they are have been bracing for this to come down from the judge today. and the judge notified them essentially by this order saying she does believe that investigators have met the threshold for this fraud crimes exemption. which means essentially prosecutors can work around it attorney client privilege if they believe that attorney has use their legal advice or legal services in furtherance of a crime for the client. in this case obviously trump. >> john: question about what specifically and are there limits? >> there could be limits we

don't know the full scope of this. there not gotten the full order they will likely get that. that evan corcoran and his legal team himself he is hired his own attorney here they will likely get that next week. we may see them respond before then but obviously one of the assumptions they want to talk about his discussion with trump about these documents. because he has been involved in this since last may when this was all going down with the negotiations with the justice department. this is really significant they don't know how this is going to end up. >> ellen honey, to client privilege is a thing. how hard of a thing is it? what does the judge have to determine to allow these type of questions now to be asked? >> jon , it is both difficult and

rare to convince a judge to pierce through attorney-client privilege. i was a prosecutor 14 years i only ever did this one time successfully as it turned out. what you have to do is go to a judge and show by a preponderance of the evidence. meaning it is more likely than not that these conversations between the attorney here evan corcoran in the attorney and trump. the fact they were able to make that showing and a respected federal judge agrees with that i thing is a monumental decision. it opens the door for prosecutors to get that testimony. >> clarissa: maggie that gets you into the conversation. remind us where evan corcoran this in the ski timeline and where he fits in trump world. he is not a name we have known since 2015. >> evan corcoran got introduced into trump world by epstein, his on politics last spring when this issue was starting to heat up. evan corcoran was present when justice department came mar-alar to june 5th and this was after thiso subpoen had been for any outstanding lar to june 5th and this was after thiso subpoen had been for any outstandingmar-a-lar to was after thiso subpoen had been for any outstandinglar to was after thiso subpoen had been for any outstandingatolar

this was after thiso subpoen had been for any outstanding la this was after thiso subpoen had been for any outstandinggo this was after thiso subpoen had been for any outstanding mar-a-lagoto june 5th and this was after thiso subpoen had been for any outstanding mar-o june 5th and this was after thiso subpoen had been for any outstanding mar-a-lagoto june 5th and this was after thiso subpoen had been for any outstanding mar-a-lago and christina bob said he is not just given the documents as was noted but it was a diligent search has been done for anything else. that is a big piece of the justice department zeroed in on. as noticed when fbi search mar-a-lago at two months later we discovered it was not true. one conversation prosecutors are interested in hearing about is a call evan corcaran had for security camera footage mar-a-lago at we're out of they have reason for they saw that the conversation took place. but evan corcaran is especially close to trump he was very aggressive for a while the settling started receding as this issue press forward. what is so unusual here, john that is important to remember. these lawyers who are under scrutiny themselves are still involved in defending these

cases. that trump is very enmeshed in. >> john: it is an odd, odd thing. congressman, often for the last several th years when this happened i would trump base react to this? i don't thing that is a relevant question anymore. we have been asking it for so long. i am curious is there are people running against him or about to run against him for president. what goes on in this campaign headquarters of other candidates? how do they look at all these things going on? what they look at it, john, with absolute fear. hopefully, this is the candidate speaking. hopefully, organically this will affect donald trump. but if i will take off his base. i will anger them. so i might just use the old what is this case your speaking of, i have never heard of it. i thing that is one way. there is a line either a nikki haley or mike pence stepping up in this area to put that altogether and say it is not

just abandoning ukraine it is also this lawless issue. and throw in politics of do you thing an indicted former president can win again? that will probably be the most effective argument in a primary. i thing this will rile up trump space he is good at being a professional victim. so i thing it may hurt him around the edges of people are exhausted. >> john: two quick mop of questions on this case. number one, evan corcaran , does he have to testify or can he take the fifth here? and next the fact they had to go attorney-client privilege should they have a weak case. is that actually accurate? >> on number one, yes evan corcaran, can take the 50 or if they can prosecutors encounter move by giving him immunity. meaning you have to testify or we will not use your testimony against you. on the second point i thing trump's lawyers is not a sign of

weakness it is a sign of strength. you only do this is a prosecutor you are confident you can get this showing. it is a rare thing for prosecutors to do and they did it successfully here. >> john: maggie and caitlyn want to talk to both of you of what happens in. the manhattan attorney could get indictments for donald trump on the stormy daniels matter. what is going on inside trump world? do they appreciate the significance of this? perhaps being under indictment within days? >> yes they appreciate the significance of it. i thing it crept up on them a bit. despite the fact this is been telegraphe d for such a long time this may happen. from their perspective trump has been under investigation for a number of years. it did not materialize into anything. it did not materialize because he was sitting president. that is why he would not get indicted. but that aside they are prepared for it. i thing it will become clear to us if an indictment comes out.

they are very much preparing on the political front and preparing to suggest this is of the cases the weakest of them. when people call this a weak case, they don't know what the evidence is it is a more trivial case i thing is what people are saying in comparison to the othe r cases trump is facing. and the law is the law. trump folks are planning to paint this as a broader conspiracy by democrats. although often without evidence suggesting this is about helping joe biden. and i thing you will see that immediately. >> trump has been watching closely, ellie is one of them. they do not believe for prosecutors it will be quite a difficult case. heward legal experts say they are surprised if they move forward with the indictment that we are expecting. that they would take that step because of the risk of what happened and they are not successful. if prosecutors go this far and take this unprecedented step of indicting a former president. >> john: ellie, maggie, reporting and political team.

for magazine reports the justice department is investigating the

chinese company that owns tiktok. after allegations it was being used to spy on u.s. citizens including journalists that cover the tech industry. and other majo r development after a tense standoff after the biden administration threatened to ban the social media app in the u.s. do to security and privacy issues. already the app is banned on government devices in the u.s. europe and other states. there's a new report that tiktok may have access to your data even if you have never used the. we will have much more of that in a moment. let's go to cnn tech reporter on the justice department report. bryant, what more can you tell us about that? >> reporter: john , this goes to a spying incident we learned about in december when forbes broke the news that a number of journalists had been spied upon by bike dance. bike density parent company of tiktok. tiktok later proved confirm this to cnn saying that they fired several employees who had been involved in improper data

access. now it appears through this report from forbes and new york times that the justice department is investigating to see if there may be more to this story. and we are seeing this is just adding to the concerns that the u.s. government has about tiktok. and whether or not it poses a national security threat to the united states. >> tiktok parent company admits to accessing the data. what are they saying? >> they are reiterating the earlier position on this. let me read you a statement we got earlier tonight. they said, quote, we have strongly condemned the actions of the individuals involved and they are no longer employed bytedance at it looks like tiktok bytedance and are

looking to cooperate been too early to say when this will lead. >> john: how soon can u.s. lawmakers get a chance to talk to tiktok executives about this directly? >> reporter: tiktok ceo shou zi chew is expected to testify before the house energy and commerce committee next week. they will ask the ceo about not just national security concerns but how tiktok may be impacting teen mental health which is been a major issue discussion here in the united states. >> john: bryant, thank you for seeing you. enduring now by ivan serini the ceo of the cybersecurity form group security that published that new report that said tiktok could have your data even if you have never used it. also even if you have deleted the app it is still collect your data. ivan what more can you tell us about this report? >> what we found out is how common pixels and trackers companies like tiktok owned by

bytedask are used to on things we use on a day-to-day basis. >> the idea that people who never usedn are used to on thine use on a day-to-day basis. >> the idea that people who nevec are used to on things we use on a day-to-day basis. >> the idea that people who never usede are used to on thin we use on a day-to-day basis. >> the idea that people who never used tiktok could be effective. i have never used tiktok but i use my stuff? what that is correct. what we have found is first of all what are pixels? you know the giant spy balloon we shot out of the sky? pixels are tiny spy balloon is embedded into websites we use in a bank account. and tiktok, you may never have had a tiktok account but tiktok can have your data. and does collect data across the sites we use on a day to day basis. >> u.s. lawmakers and others say delete tiktok. if you have it deleted. is that enough? >> in my personal opinion i don't thing it is enough. because they collect data on the websites that we all use not just necessarily from the mobile

app on your phone. they will see when you are typing into the forum the are signing up. >> john: is there anything you can do? >> great question. one discussion is having change of ownership. i don't thing change of ownership. what is really making a difference is integrity. it is people who have access to the data who have control over the data. who can make decisions. i thing it is about having people who have trust like the pentagon. >> a tiktok spokesperson said, quote, like other platforms the data we received from advertisers is used to improve our advertising. we instruct advertising not to share data with us and work with partners to avoid inadvertent transmission of such data. what are the chances these

trackers are inadvertent transmission of data? >> it is pretty common. we saw it, what was surprising we set out to establish a baseline. it is only to the intended basis. but we found are pixels fully operated by many companies not just tiktok they collect a lot of information. companies email, home address, everything you could possibly share on a website. >> ivan serini thank you for scariness i appreciate your time. so a very unwelcome visitor has arrived in florida. a humongous, smelly, and potentially toxic so-called flop of seaweed that stretches thousands of miles across the atlantic. the havoc it might cause next. today we unite with the elemenents that have alwaysys been at our core.

>> john: as if hurricanes are not enough to worry about. florida is bracing for a seaweed invasion. after the 5000 mile mass of tangled vegetation arrives on the shore. it is twice as wide is the entire continental u.s. if you are wondering what is that smell it could be what we have been calling for days now the blob or the plot s.

but the first thing she learned whatever you do do not call this blob like mass floating in the big blobs of the 60 miles of the ocean a blob. >> reporter: it is thick in the summertime, builds up and smells terrible. >> joe kaplan captured these images about a week ago. massive amounts of seaweed at smathers speech. a beach he does well because he walks it several times a week. >> i was shocked when i saw that day it was not even spring yet it is winter. which is very unusual. with this is a 5000 mile blood. >> doctor hu is a leading expert on money any call a massive blob of seaweed going to florida's coast. do we call it a blog? >> no. >> i would never call that a blob.

>> why? >> it is not. quick satellite images show it is not one massive body of seaweed but a bunch of patchy clumps traveling from west africa called the atlantic sargassum belt and is a national phenomenon right now twice the width of the u.s. carrying 6 million tons of seaweed and headed to the east coast. >> in june of this year and be turned into 20 million tons. >> reporter: let me get this straight what we are seeing is 6 million tons and it will get bigger? >> yes. there is no way to stop it just like no one can stop a hurricane. >> reporter: should we be worried about it? >> no. mainly sargassum the is not toxic. >> it smells bad and is a nuisance for those trying to keep beaches clean to attractors. just a few years ago here is what it looks like in mexico. officials near the florida keys have put aside the $200,000 to clean and remove sargassum from

the beaches. >> seaweed is a mixed blessing. we need it, it is a nursery for all these large fish. the negative side it comes with a concentration that we will see our fishing grounds will become covered with it. there's no point to fishing we will spend the entire day cleaning seaweed. >> as sargassum the goes towards florida and other natural phenomenon is hitting its beaches on the east coast. red tide it can be toxic and cause respiratory illness. the concerns were enough to cancel one major event in indian rocks where one family visiting said -. >> is it is my husband and son got out of the car we started coughing. >> but this group from iowa the concerns of massive amounts of seaweed or red tide or not enough to change vacation plans. quick they would rather it be red tide. quick they would be jealous regardless of having the red tide symptoms. they are jealous we are here and they are not quick the pristine

beaches of the sunshine state are hard to resist despite what may be living offshore. >> john: so, layla, what can you tell us about - i will not call it a blob, the not blob. quick the same scientist that said do not call this blob a that it is hard to forecast. you cannot forecast because this popped up in the tropica l atlantic into 2011. they still need more research to forecasted. but they do understand is movement how it moves and where it goes. that is why right now they want to forecast it like a hurricane. if you thing of it like a hurricane what you see if you look closer our outer bands of this massive not blob that you mentioned coming in. and although this is normal,

what we are seeing here is a mix of stuff. and if you look closely i pull out some of this. this right her this right here is the actual but it is mixed in with a lot of the stuff that comes in. and i have got to tell you i do conversation with one gentleman who works with weddings here and he was concerned about what is to come. he said last weekend i spent all this time cleaning up beaches to make the wedding look nice and he was afraid of what would come next, jon. >> john: they do say a seaweed blob invasion is was to be good luck for the marriage. speeded that is what they say? >> john: stay safe, thank you, appreciate it. if you have filled out a bracket for the ncaa men's basketball tournament you have my condolences. only the second day and already millions of brackets are busted. we have the numbers next, stay with us.

perhaps the only thing more pasta than bank stocks this week are people's ncaa brackets. mother upset today in men's college basketball tournament number 11. they beat number 6, iowa state.

that comes one day after the torment began with huge upsets, including princeton beating number two seed, arizona. finally, these ivy league kids catching a break. our senior data reporter joins us with the latest on the carnage. you know, harry, how many brackets were wiped out here? >> based on princeton winning and firm in winning, less than 1 million people have those two teams in combo wedding. we are now talking about in terms of perfect brackets in the country, less than 50 out of tens of millions of brackets. we are keeping an eye on this perdue game, who is this number one seed. john has it up on his computer right now. perdue is trailing by three. if that goes, you have a number one seed going down. goodness, gracious. that is why the chance of getting a perfect bracket is

one in nine quintillion, which is like 18 zeros. >> i am paying very close attention to you and the rest of the news. thank you for the running play- by-play here. am not sure of the legalities of all of that. harry, just because you have a busted bracket, it is not all bad news. right? >> the thing to keep in mind is that the way these brackets work is that the games in the later rounds count for more. let's just say a number 4 lost to a number 13 and you had that number 4 winning. as long as you do not have that number 4 going to the final four, essentially what it is is that each round is worth the same amount of points. but each individual game is worth significantly less when there are 16 versus two games and around. that you think here, john, that you want your final four to be intact. after all these upsets, will people's final force actually

be intact? >> you said fewer than 50 people in all-america? >> less than 50 people in america. i was looking at espn. it was less than 30. when you combine it altogether, there was less than 50. now, maybe there is someone petting with their friend right out of the side. we do not know if that person has a perfect bracket. but in terms of the once we keep an eye on, the ones the guinness book of world records were keep an eye on, it is less than 50. >> not the cnn one either. not invited. but there are brackets that i did do. and the brackets are still okay. >> maybe okay for another minute. if you look at our final fours, we talked perdue in there. my question to you mr. berman is, what is going on with your alabama fetish year? both auburn and alabama in

there? and what is it with you with chris wallace? you both picked guns allah every year they are not a number one seed. every year i pick guns i got, they seem to lose. >> final truth is my son filled it out for me. and soccer, it has got a nice name. >> i will say i have a family member that lives down in alabama. i also have alabama in my final four. i am a big fan of alabama. but auburn being an eight seed, that would be a good thing if they could advance. but they would not necessarily have thought that fraley dicken university would have the potential upset over ftu. >> and just to be clear, ftu is at 16 seed. perdue is a one seat on the in the history of history. >> back in 2018, beat uba by 28 points. that was the biggest shocker. the only other time that came

close was princeton back in 1989 against georgetown. that was a very close match up. they only lost by one point in that one. >> i digress. thank you very much for being with us. best of luck to you. >> i am going to need it after our perdue game. >> next up, an entire hour of war crimes for vladimir putin. that includes the exclusive interview with the icc's chief prosecutor. and why he decided to pursue allegations of abductions of children instead of the atrocities. for over 120 years, mercedes-benz vansns have been built, upfitted and ready to go. because we believe dreams - should never stay that way.
