christina macfarlane, max foster and bianca nobilo are off for the day just ahead on cnn newsroom. our first amendment gives us the right to speak freely and to communicate freely . the ccp is willing to lie about it spy balloon and cover up the origins of the worst pandemic in 100 years, they will i about using tiktok. the process of getting inflation back down to 2% has a long way to go and is likely to be bumpy . you think the united states is headed for a recession? i think that that is where jerome powell is trying to drive it. you can hear the rooftop and the metal flying up. it was an earthquake . they started screaming earthquake, and then the power just went out. live from london. this is cnn newsroom with max foster and bianca nobilo. it's

thursday, march 23rd eight am here in london, four am in washington, where in just a few hours, us lawmakers will hear the ceo of tiktok fight back against the government push to ban the app across the country is expected to argue that both tiktok and its parent company are not agents for china's government. the ceos. 10 page prepared statement shows he plans to update lawmakers on steps taken to keep data from american users secure despite fears beijing could ask for access. tiktok ceo has made his answer clear in the past. the chinese government has actually never asked us for us user data , and we have said this on the record that even if we were asked for that we will not provide that. more than 150. million american users alone used the app every month. some have said a ban whatever profound effects on the user's freedom of speech content creators joined a new new york

congressman for a press conference ahead of the hearings , claiming the tiktok had had an enormous impact on their lives. many of the content creators that i just met with in my office. they talk about. they talked to me about the sense of family. they talked to me about a sense of community. they talked to me about a place that is helpful to their mental health and to their sense of belonging and well being. they talked to me about finding a place where they could communicate with others like them. and learn to love themselves even further. well cnn's anna coren is joining me now live from hong kong at a bus of tiktok facing a grilling in front of congress in a matter of hours from now, and the future of the app here is really at stake. so what can we expect from this hearing? i was going to say christina listening to that sound, but it sounds like somebody's drunk. the kool aid, but you're right. the ceo of

tiktok is certainly preparing for harsh grilling from us lawmakers as his faces his first congressional hearing over the video apps potential national security risk. this is what is up for debate. you know the short form video app that is owned by a beijing based parent company, known as but dense has recently been banned by various governments around the world on official government devices. the us the uk, the european parliament, various eu nations and new zealand have all enforced this ban, but the ceo shows he chew has spent millions of dollars lobbying capitol hill and he says that the app poses no threat, denying allegations that it alludes or has an improper relationship. with the chinese government. let's take a listen to what you said a few days ago on tiktok. some politicians have started talking about banning tiktok. now this could take take take away from all 150. million of you will be testifying before congress later this week to share all that

we're doing to protect americans using the app and deliver on our mission to inspire creativity and to bring joy. to bring joy ticktock. christina collects roughly the same amount of data as facebook or twitter, but it's the links with the chinese government that has everybody worry the fbi director as well as the head of the us national security agency. they've both said that ticktock could be a valuable tool for china to shape public opinion in regards to elections policy, making even in the event of a potential war over taiwan. now the biden administration says the only way if a ticktock to continue operating in the united states is if it's chinese owners sell their stake in the company that we understand is highly unlikely because the chinese government views tick tocks technology is sensitive and critical. two chinese nationals interest. i think it's very interesting that since 2020 the chinese

government has taken steps to ensure that it can veto any sale by but dense today we should mention there has been no evidence that beijing is used tiktok's data for intelligence or other purposes. but it's that deep mistrust between china and the us that really has has everybody on heightened alert. christina i guess it depends what side of the french are on anna. but of course, there's going to be a lot of anxious tiktok fans following proceedings latest today. thanks very much, anna. now after a shooting of two faculty members that are denver high school wednesday, authorities have found a male body less than a mile from the vehicle connected to the suspect. they have not yet identified the body. colorado police believe 17 year old student austin lyle shot to school employees. parents say this is only one of many violent events that have occurred in the area. i got a text from my daughter today that said, we're in lockdown again, and it's really scary. this one's for

real. this is the third major fourth major incident here at east high. the denver school board is bailing us. and it's really a problem. how much more is it going to take before people start realizing this place is a ticking time bomb? both shooting victims are in hospital, where officials say one is listed in critical condition, the other in serious but stable condition. u. s financial markets are looking to rebound from significant losses after the federal reserve raised interest rates by quarter of a point there. you can see us futures all in the green this morning, looking up across the dow nasdaq and the s and p 500, the fed is working to bring inflation down and avoid any further turmoil in the banking sector. fed chair jerome power indicated this might be a last rate hike for now fell more than 500 points on wednesday, and the nasdaq and s and p each lost more than 1.5. and more now from

the fed's decision from cnn's matt eagan. the fed is making clear that in their eyes, inflation is still public enemy number one. despite the reason being failures, the fed is forging ahead with its warm inflation, lifting interest rates for the ninth straight meeting and benchmark rates are now at their highest level since september of 2007 right before the great recession. now the goal remains the scene, get inflation under control without breaking something in the economy. but the recent bank failures suggests the fed already has broken something, and that is why some experts wanted to fed to pause here and survey the damage fed chair jerome powell, he said they did consider a pause, but ultimately there was unanimous support for this rate hike, in large part because inflation does remain way too high. now. for consumers , this means higher borrowing costs. car loans. student debt

mortgage rates are near 20 years highs, and it's never been more expensive to carry a credit card balance on the banking crisis. powell he did his best to try to reassure the public that bank deposits are safe. listen to what he said about that. our banking system is sound and resilient with strong capital and liquidity. we will continue to closely monitor conditions in the banking system and are prepared to use all of our tools as needed to keep it safe and sound. in addition, we are committed to learning the lessons from this episode and to work to prevent episodes from events like this. from happening again. the power went on to say that it is prepared to use all of its tools to keep the banking system strong. now the big question is, how much longer will the fed raises rates? the fed did drop some hints that it could soon wrap up this inflation fighting campaign. the fed statement no longer says that ongoing rate hikes are likely just some further

tightening may be needed. and the feds projections pencil and just one more rate hike, but i would stress there's just so much uncertainty here. the biggest source of uncertainty is all of this pressure on banks and how the banking crisis is going to make it more expensive for everyone to borrow powell he considered the feds just doesn't know yet how much all of this will slow the economy. and i think the answer to that question is going to go a long way in determining just how much more work the fed has to do to get inflation back down. back to you. thanks to matt well, senate democrat elizabeth warren says the rate heights will mean two million layoffs. by the end of the year. she's accusing fed chair jerome powell of pushing the us towards recession is what she told cnn, strict tapa about powell and the banking crisis. he has spent five years weakening regulations over these multibillion dollar banks predicted five years ago. the

consequence of that kind of weakening would be that we would see these banks load up on risk build their short term profits give themselves giant enormous up bonuses and big salaries. and then some of those banks will explode. and that is exactly what has happened on share pals watch. in new york grand jury is expected to meet again today in the case of donald trump's alleged hush money payments to adult film star stormy daniels is unlikely they will hand down any indictment as sources tell cnn prosecutors are considering calling more witnesses. prosecutors are weighing charges that trump allegedly falsified business records and violated campaign finance laws. and another investigation into the former president appears to be gaining momentum. this one involves classified documents found at his mar a lago estate in florida. cnn's caitlin palance has the details. the primary defense attorney for donald trump, a man named evan corcoran is set to return to the

federal grand jury in washington to answer more questions the questions that prosecutors want to ask him and the answer is that they believe he will give our about whether or not donald trump was trying to break the law in the response to the classified documents probe at mara lago, so this is a crucial situation that is developed here over the past. a few hours and days of federal appeals court in washington on wednesday, essentially ordered the corcoran would need to go and testify again to that grand jury answer questions he hadn't before about his conversations directly with his client, donald trump. the appeals court also said that he would need to turn over documents that he had in his possession, handwritten notes and transcribed verbal notes to the grand jury investigation as well. this is the grand jury investigation into the potential is handling of classified records at mara lago and possibly obstruction of justice . we don't know if there will be

charges that emanate from this, but what the justice department has done so far to get us to this point is really putting an emphasis on how close they believe they are to locking up this case, they believe that there was the advancing of a crime. it's quite significant, and evan corcoran really is the central person the central witness to the conversation. nations what was what donald trump was thinking and wanting to do, as the justice department was trying to get classified records that he had a mara lago back in their possession at the federal government and that they weren't just turning over all of the things that were there. caitlin, poland's cnn washington. police in new york scaled the side of a high rise building to prevent a crime suspect from jumping from the 31st floor. take a look at this. this is the moment when a police officer grappled from above and push the suspect back. inside a

law enforcement source says he smashed the window and tried to escape after the fbi attempted to serve a search warrant. a suspected wire fraud on wednesday the suspect in mitchell, then threatened to jump the source says. mitchell was arrested after police forced him back into the building. red tornado has been confirmed near los angeles. the national weather service says it touched down wednesday in the city of monte bello. one person was hurt. more than a dozen buildings were damaged, many beyond repair what residents had to say about the storm. i was not knowing what to do at that time. i was like, i didn't know what's going on. i was kind of scared. we didn't hide in. my coworkers told me we're going to have to hide. you just don't think southern california having the storm like this. but it's the strongest tornado to hit the city in 40 years. while twisters are rare in california, is actually the second one to hit the state and as many days,

nicole comstock with cnn affiliate k cow shows us some more of the damage here. that tornado just blasted through the inside of this place, bringing all of these boxes outside, bringing all this metal outside as well. and if you take a look inside this seafood supply company you can see clear through to the sky tonight. there were employees inside. when this tornado came through, they try to pull down this metal door, but unfortunately they couldn't even get that down against the strength of the wind . so the employees just hit right here in the corner where all these brooms are now. meanwhile at the time this tornado was tearing all of this stuff up in the parking lot here. moving these big wooden pallets all over the place, and you can just imagine how dangerous this was for the people at the time. with this wood with nails in it blowing around in the wind. storms in california will move stop moving east this week. cnn meteorologist derek van dam has more on the forecast. here's something you don't normally see

. nor do we want to be seen this a tornado moving through a populated part of los angeles. this is just east of downtown. look at the debris just being lofted into the sky. there's some two by fours and some pedaling as well, just incredible to see what happened . the national weather service on location determining the exact strength of this confirmed tornado, but one thing's for sure it caused significant damage to some of the buildings. you can see this aerial photograph. of one of the warehouses there now, when we think of march tornadoes we typically hone in on the lone star state, right. they have 14 on average for the month of march. more of the same across the deep south, averaging about 5 to 7 tornadoes from mississippi to georgia. now did you know that california averages one tornado during the month of march, and i just happened to take place in los angeles. incredible here it is radar loop and you can see it just south and east. this is an area called monte bello. flared up local time about 11 20 in the morning, and it was a very short

lived tornado, but enough to cause of course, the destruction you saw just a moment ago. now the energy from the same storm system is going to be ejected east from the rockies, and it's going to move into the ohio and mississippi river valley over the next couple of days, and unfortunately it's going to be encountering a blocking high pressure system to the north, so it's going to allow for heavy rainfall, more showers and thunderstorms moving over the same locations. weather prediction center picking up on this moderate risk of flash flooding lookout memphis to louisville anywhere across this area where you see the darker shading of yellow and oranges. we have the potential from 3 to 6 inches of rain through friday. national weather service picking up on that flood watches in effect for over 20 million americans stretching from indianapolis, cincinnati through st louis, all the way to oklahoma city, now another threat with this round of rough weather across the nation's midsection is the potential for severe weather. we have a multiday severe weather center set up taking shape today slight

sandler sunday on cnn. i welcome back to cnn newsroom i'm christina macfarlane. if you're just joining us, let me bring you up to date with our top stories this hour in the coming hours. the ceo of tiktok will testify before a house committee that data of more than 100 and 50 million active users in the u. s is secure. the hearing comes as the u. s considers banning tiktok plus a new york grand jury is expected to meet in the case of donald trump's alleged hush money payments. adult film star stormy daniels sources tell cnn prosecutors are considering calling more witnesses, and it's unlikely they'll hand down any indictments today. as legal problems continue mounting for donald trump, one of his top rivals for the 2024 republican nomination, is striking back at the former president. it's a notable change for florida governor on the santis, who until now has generally avoided criticizing trump by name. cnn's

brian todd has our report. florida's governor, taking stronger but still subtle swipes at donald trump, rhonda said in an interview with piers morgan for his talk show that streams on fox nation had some fun with trump's nicknames for him, rhonda sanctus today and everybody have the sentence the sanctimonious to thank your favorite nickname that trump's given you so far. i can't i don't know how to spell the sanctimonious. i don't really know what it means, but i kind of like it's long. it's got a lot of valves. i mean, so we'll go with that. that's fine. you know, you can call me you can call me whatever you want. i mean, just as long as you, you know, also called me a winner suspended. any regular is also got serious with a jab at the former president when morgen asked him about the differences between him and trump, and obviously, you know, the approach to covid was different. i mean, you know, i would have fired somebody like fauci to the way we run. the government, i think is no daily drama focus on the big picture and put points on the board. analysts say the

potential presidential candidates framing of himself as a leader who would have less drama in an administration and as a winner seems to be a recent calculation to go after trump in an understated way. it does seem that there's been an evolution this week where in this interview, you're seeing him come out harder. he's especially going after trump's character. like the moment at a news conference this week went to santa seemed to take advantage of trump's legal jeopardy, specifically the possibility that the former president could be indicted soon. in the stormy daniels case. santa's attacked the prosecutor investigating trump, saying he's pursuing a political agenda and weaponizing his office but also said, i don't know what goes into paying hush money to a porn star to secure silence over some type of alleged affair. i just i can't speak to that. donald trump, not about to let the sanders remarks this week go unanswered posted on his platform. truth social. rhonda sanctimonious is not working for the people of

florida as he should be. he is too busy chatting with the ratings challenged tv host from england. how risky is it for dishonest to attack trump? one thing he knows is whatever he does whether he tries to ignore donald trump or whether he confronts donald trump. donald trump is going to be in his face . donald trump is going to follow the mike tyson strategy that everybody has a plan until they get in the face, and it's not just trump himself who is striking back at rond de santis . trump's allies are getting in on it. longtime trump adviser jason miller, responding to the piers, morgan interview tweeted that the sentence has quote finally shown his true colors and establishment. never trumper , who despises the mega base and was faking it the entire time and quote brian todd, cnn washington. in the ukrainian official is accusing russia of a deliberate strike on civilians after a missile slammed into residential buildings in zap erica. the disturbing moment was caught on camera. ukraine says this was one of six missiles

fired at the city on wednesday. one person was killed and dozens injured in those attacks, while nine others were killed in strikes. on the kiev region. ukraine's president is promising a response to what he calls russian savagery. close bastian joining me now to talk about this. this was claire callous attack on civilian life. what more have we been learning about the after math of these tax, not just in separation, of course, but in key for the kiev region as well. wednesday was pretty deadly day for civilians overall that attack in both in both cases in the kiev region and is a barrage of the rescue efforts have now finished. we're hearing in zaporizhia, according to the emergency services. they are quoting the national police are saying that they believe this was from the smartwatch rocket launcher system. that's a multiple launch rocket system that russia uses that was responsible for those six missiles that were levied at the city of separate asia. the death toll there stands at 1 32 injured, including three children over in the kiev region . that was a drone strike. this is part of a barrage of drones that were ah, that were launched

at ukraine overnight tuesday into wednesday. five of them evaded air defenses, and one of them hit this, this sort of training school professional training school with dormitory buildings. nine people now confirmed dead there. president zelensky, meanwhile, turned up on the eastern front line there, but mahmoud and he had this to say about those attacks. the school will certainly respond to every blow of the occupiers on our cities. today's russian strikes and appreciate the nightly attack on the kiev region. russian strikes will receive a military, political and legal response. have you visit presumably designed to boost morale in the city where they've been continuing that bloody defense. meanwhile, this morning, ukrainian top general saying that he expects that ukraine might be able to go on the offensive involvement soon because he says russian forces are depleted visit also stark contrast what we saw from president putin earlier this week and mary oppel under the

cover of darkness eclair thanks very much. well speaking of surprise visits, prince william has made a rare unannounced trip to poland. he met with troops stationed in the polish ukrainian border on wednesday and thank them for quote defending our freedoms. cnn's max foster is live in warsaw, max. um good to see even though we know the royal family technically can't and don't get involved in politics, they have been very vocal in their support of ukraine. so how was this trip by the prince of wales has it been received in poland? well he's about to come here, as you say when he was out there in the east of the country who was visiting troops, british and polish troops and he was talking about their support for the freedom of the people of ukraine and how they were protecting all of our freedoms. in many ways, that was all you know, secret visit if you like. there was a blackout around that because of the area and the sensitivities around the security that there but then he came here to warsaw, and he's got a series of events

today. lots of cameras here, so that's no secret is coming. to their wreath here at the tomb of the unknown soldier that he goes to meet president duda where he will express. he says his gratitude to the people of poland and it's a big message. really. he's talking about the protection that this country is offering to freedom to the west to the world. in many ways, as you say, some would say it is a political message, but the family is very much got behind the ukrainians throughout this since the beginning of the war, so be interesting to see how he does that he was playing time. able tennis yesterday. last night when he arrived here in warsaw. that was an accommodation center. the other message you want to get across is that 1.5 million ukrainians have settled here. they continue to be supported by the polish full access to public services. many have been taken into people's homes. here are there's a release accommodation centers. he really wants to highlight the continued work that poland is giving relief to the ukrainians and in terms of freedom, really,

but he says it's something that we all benefit from, so it's going to be reflecting that again today. good to see the prince, bringing some cheer to young people there in warsaw, max. thanks very much. now more mass protests are planned today in france over radical changes to the country's pension system, a live report just ahead from paris. meet kerri and sheheri. theyey started apparel company r womemen who ride when business took off. they needed alone. smart business loans dot com found them a bank, which got along with a great rate. smart biz. we probably wouldn't have gotten alonesmart business loans .com sizedmount apply it like a lotion pitsnder boob folds, cracks feet. this water based cream. i'm telling you, it's invisle on the skin. it works like a dream. why didn't someone think of this sooner? over 100 million americans have low or no credit self is a new

personnel are livid over the dwindling value of their pensions. lebanon's national currency hit a record low on tuesday. the crash tak taking place is the central bank's governor is under investigation in lebanon and europe for allegedly embezzling millions of dollars in public funds. meantime protesters in israel plan to kick off what they call the day of shutdown. they've been rallying against a proposed judicial reform for weeks, saying it will derail israel's democracy. the rallies will continue as prime minister benjamin netanyahu prepares to fly to london today is coalition is facing international pressure to find middle ground on wednesday, the white house israeli leaders to find a compromise as soon as possible. thousands of police have been mobilized across france today as that country braces for another nationwide strike. a new law aims to raise france's retirement age from 62 to 64 has set off weeks of angry protests . one of the most visible signs of unrest is the tons of

uncollected garbage on the streets of paris. president emmanuel macron says he understands the public's frustration but insists that raising the retirement age is necessary to preserve france's pension system. well cnn's melissa bell is standing by for us in paris with the latest and melissa macron defiant here standing firm. but a deal on the pension reform still has some way to go. so what has to happen for that bill to become law? well it's getting pretty close now, christina. all that's going to happen is that the constitutional council will over the course of the next few weeks rule on the question of whether this law is constitutional, not as it does every time after a law leaves parliament, there has been a movement by some mps to have it struck down by the constitutional council, but it will be up to that body to rule on its constitutionality and barring a massive reversal, then means that that will become law and i think this is really

what's going to incense, the protesters that you're going to see out on the streets of france today already christina we've been seeing in the last few hours. people protesters blocking oil refineries. incinerators beginning to gather at key points. we expect fairly big strikes today. across transport networks. it is traffic controllers that will be affected trains metro's we're hearing that one of the terminals installed a goal is being blocked by protesters. even now, they will take to the streets of paris and other french cities. from two p.m. and we expect it to be a fairly large turnout because of course of the controversy surrounding not just the fact of this law, the raising of the age from 62 to 65 4 when french people can retire, but of course, the manner in which it has been pushed through without a vote in parliament that has really finished to wind up not just the trade unions at this point, christine, but i think it's important to point out also that amongst the broader public, there is not a great deal of support. in fact, it is more than 70% of french people who

are against the raising of the retirement age. we expect today another big turnout against it, christina clearly the standoff set to last for many weeks to come. melissa bell thanks there for the latest from paris. hangover from boris johnson's party gate scandal has put his political future in peril. three hours wednesday, british lawmakers grilled the former prime minister. over the alcohol fueled parties held during covid lockdowns under his watch, is one of many scandals that led to his ouster last year, and at the hearing, johnson tried his best to defend his actions or cnn's robertson has been following proceedings joins me here live, nick, this was a hearing that could really spell the end of boris johnson's political career. so how well did he do in defending himself? and did he convince the house that his actions were not deliberate? i'm not sure that he convinced the room that he was in with a committee there. the seven mps who were in there, they really seem to be going after him on the detail of his argument, and

his argument was i didn't mislead parliament intentionally or recklessly because that's the that's the accusation. he did accept that it misled them. but he said it was because his advisers had told him what to say, and he shared their understanding that these gatherings he's parties were the sort of following the guidelines of you know of covid policy at the time, and he was questioning is it was well okay in that room . where were the mitigating circumstances that were called for in the guidance for workplace? he said. well, you know, like partitions, they said, well, they were in the next room. and that was another point. that was, i thought very, very telling where there was. there was another gathering and boris johnson's wife and his interior designer because his apartment was being redone at that time were both in the room , and the question from the mp was. well if this is a workplace

function, and you're putting in these best mitigations that you can because you have said that it's an old building. it's a small building. you know, we're doing the best we can. hand. why are this gathering? would you have your wife and an interior designer who are not connected to the running of the government? and really, i think when he was pressed on points like that, despite the fact he was assertive despite the fact that he was at times defensive, um i don't think he won that room. it's not looking good. but we still have to hear what the committee has to say. and the british public, of course for watching on nick will wait and see thanks very much. now. still ahead. a judge is deciding whether a $1.6 billion defamation lawsuit against fox news will go to trial and some of the top brass at fox may be compelled to testify. that story and more when we return, stay with us. these bills arere craz.

like rupert murdoch might have to stop known liars from going on air. cnn's jessica schneider has the latest now from washington. a ruling in this high stakes defamation case could come at any time from this delaware judge he's state court judge eric davis. he was appointed by a democratic governor in 2010. he's deciding whether the facts that have been presented so far both in his courtroom and in court filings, whether those facts are sufficient for him to rule in favor of either dominion or fox news. without this case, going to trial now, that is a very high bar. and the likelihood here is that this case will go to trial unless fox and dominion settle before then, and in a hearing on wednesday morning, there were also questions about how a trial would proceed. judge davis actually said he could possibly compel fox corporation chairman rupert murdoch to testify at any trial. and that's because, as judge davis put put it. murdoch has a special role at fox corporation, and he was aware of the guests appearing on

fox news is a rare in fact, rupert murdoch even acknowledged in his deposition that he could have stopped trump's legal team from appearing on the networks air fox news attorneys that were saying that any compelled appearance by rupert murdoch on the witness stand would just create an undue burden. also a media circus and a response to that the judge did say that he'd consider bringing in high profile witnesses via zoom or some other teleconferencing platform. but the stakes in this case are very high. dominion is demanding $1.6 billion in this defamation case, even though fox news is saying that those numbers are inflated, but dominion at the core of this is arguing that since fox news executives and its host knew that they were putting on guests who were promoting false election fraud theories, they say fox should be held accountable here and liable for defamation. fox on the other hand, is arguing that they are fully protected under the first amendment, so no matter which way you slice it, this is a high

stakes case, and we'll see if it goes to trial. jessica schneider, cnn washington trending this hour. what's believed to be the world's first three d printed rocket launched today towards space wednesday night. erin one blasted off from cape canaveral in florida, powered by super chilled methane and oxygen, but engine failure shortly after launch meant the vehicle failed to reach orbit. still, the company behind the rockets said the launch was a milestone. the james webb telescope is once again proving to be a powerful tool for nasa researchers. these are images of a planet that's about 40 light years away from earth. the far off planet orbits not one but two stars over 10,000 year period and has a 22 hour day, scientists say observation of the planet revealed churning
