the shipping is free. 1 804 160972. that's 1 804 16097 to call now. and cnn. prime time is time up for tiktok tonight at nine. it is the top of the hour . thank you so much for joining us on boris sanchez. great to be with you, boris. hi, everyone. i'm jessica dean and we welcome you to cnn newsroom at the top of the hour. today it may be one of the only things both sides of congress can agree on right now , the tiktok media app tik to the social media app tiktok and the risks it poses for possible chinese interference today, a contentious hearing on capitol hill. when the tiktok ceo, so chew went under oath and explained why the widely popular app should not be banned in the u. s with more than 150 million users in the united states, the overall fears that the chinese government could use its national security laws to
12:02 pm
pressure tiktok's parent company, bytedance to hand over access to user data from people in the united states. your platform should be banned. i expect today you'll say anything to avoid this outcome. we aren't buying it. in fact, when you celebrate the 150 million american users on tiktok, it emphasizes the urgency for congress to act. that is 150 million americans that ccp can collect sensitive information on . we're covering the story from several angles with cnn national security reporter natasha parrotron and cnn's chief congressional correspondent manu raju, natasha, first to you. did the ceo chu say anything that may have changed lawmakers minds ? he tried boris, but it is unclear and seems unlikely. actually that lawmakers minds were changed here, but the national security risks that they believe tiktok poses. but the bottom line the argument
12:03 pm
that you made during his remarks to congress is that tiktok has a essentially been remark of remarking on a project in order to firewall. us data off from its chinese parent company, bytedance. and what that project is called project texas because apparently what the company is trying to do. is a route that us data through company servers hosted by oracle, which is a company that is based in texas. it is an american company, and, according to the ceo there, it would be overseen by american personnel. so his argument is that this would allow the us data that tiktok collects to essentially be routed through a purely american company on u. s soil and that the chinese government would not have any access to it, though he argues that they never have in the first place, so here is a particularly contentious exchange between the tiktok ceo and a member of congress on this issue. yes or no do any bite dance employees in china,
12:04 pm
including engineers currently have access to use us user data today? all um us user data is stored by default in the oracle cloud infrastructure and access to that is controlled by american dance employees in china, including engineers currently have access to us data. congressman would appreciate this. this is a complex topic today. all data by not that complex. yes or no? do they have access to user data we have after project texas is the done. the answer is no. so choose also said that the chinese government has never asked tiktok for any data, and lawmakers have provided no evidence that the chinese government itself has actually ever used tiktok to surveil americans, but still, lawmakers are calling any attempt by jude to say that the chinese government has no involvement in tiktok quote, preposterous, and in fact, one lawmaker said that he does not believe that it is even technically possible to accomplish what tiktok says it
12:05 pm
will accomplish through this endeavor known as project texas. and manu. let's go to you. i know you've been talking to democrats and republicans on the hill today that you heard from house speaker kevin mccarthy. how are they reacting? yeah i just spoke with speaker mccarthy . and he made his clearest indication yet that congress is expected to move we tried to ban this very popular social media app nationwide. i asked him whether or not he supports legislation that would essentially give the administration power to ban tiktok, he said. we don't necessarily need to wait for the administration. congress can do it in itself. and i said, so. does that mean you support the idea of congress moving ahead and banning tiktok? he said yes. and then i asked him about the concern about not acting i think the hearing today have you all been walking part of this bipartisan concern here with what's happening on tiktok, especially what's happening. to the data for americans. there's many different ramifications
12:06 pm
here, so i think they could come together like two committees do their work product comes out when it gets done, and then you do. so he noted, there is bipartisan concern that he would let the committees do their work . that means that it's still unclear exactly what proposal will come to the floor. there are several versions about of legislation that lawmakers have proposed to essentially outlaw tiktok, some dealing with some specific privacy concerns. others that would give the executive branch new authority not just on tiktok, but other social media platforms that could pose a national security threat or come from countries deemed as an adversary to the united states. so there or some specifics that need to sort through, but mccarthy's signaled they're very, very clear that momentum is growing bipartisan support to essentially eliminate the social media that is used by roughly 150 million american users monthly. but perhaps this could go away unless things change. the administration has urged the sale of tiktok from
12:07 pm
this chinese parent company. the chinese government opposes that. so if that doesn't happen, expect congress to act on the senate side, the majority leader chuck schumer, today, indicating he is open to this idea as well. guys so fascinating that a social media app is one of the rare things that will bring both parties together to do something on capitol hill. manu natasha, thank you so much. we've got a quick programming note to share with you as well. tiktok tiktok is time up for tiktok tune into cnn primetime tonight when abby phillip takes a look at the apps future and the calls to ban it. is time up for tiktok airs tonight at nine p.m. right here on cnn. despite his predictions of his own arrest this week. signs point to no indictment this week for former president trump. the new york grand jury investigating his alleged role in a hush money scheme during his 2016 campaign is hitting a pause in this case, cnn's kara
12:08 pm
scannell is outside the courthouse in manhattan with the very latest, so carol, when is the grand jury going to meet again? so boris and jessica the grand jury's meeting today, but they are not hearing any testimony related to the investigation into trump's alleged role in the hush money payments. they will be back again on monday, and then they will hear testimony or evidence related to that investigation. sources tell us that prosecutors want to bring at least one more witness before the grand jury, and that could occur on monday. other sources tell us that they are considering bringing michael cohen the man at the center of the hush money payments back again before the grand jury. seems like a lot of this is still fluid. they're still working through the evidence. prosecutors are still weighing the case as we all wait to see what decision manhattan district attorney alvin bragg will make and whether he chooses to seek an indictment of former president trump. oris jessica and kara. the manhattan d a. brag alvin bragg. we were just talking about leading this investigation has been obviously
12:09 pm
very quiet about any indictment, but we did read some pretty strong words from his office today. after this republican call from him the house gop that he testified before congress, some gop chairman of committees have accused him of prosecute prosecutorial misconduct. tell us about this letter. yes so brags office really striking back to congress saying, you know to them. first of all that they're a federal agency, and this is the state. this is a local new york city prosecutor selling congress that they really have no place interfering in this investigation. they've also calling out the former president and saying that he put the lawmakers up to this based on reports and saying that they were doing this and it was not legitimate. in the letter. they also write the letter meaning the house letters allegation that the d a s office. this is pursuing a prosecution for political purposes is unfounded. and regardless, the proper forum for such a challenge is the courts of new york, which are
12:10 pm
equipped to consider in reviews such objections so basically saying that you know, the house here just should stay out of their business that if they do decide to move forward with this case that the place for trump to fight back on this is in the courts and not using his allies on the hill, boris jessica yeah , that letter, potentially a preview of the legal fight ahead of congress decides to subpoena alvin bragg. kara scannell live from manhattan. thanks so much. alright let's talk now about another case involving former president donald trump. this is a federal case. he suffered a major court loss in this different criminal investigation . this is not one by a state, the justice department looking into hundreds of classified documents that were found at the former president's home yesterday, an appeals court ruling to trump's attorney in this case, even corcoran must testify again before a federal grand jury sources saying that's going to happen tomorrow. three appellate judges agreed with that laurel lower court's ruling that the justice department has sufficient evidence to show trump used his defense lawyer to
12:11 pm
advance a potential crime. it's still not exactly clear how that law may have been broken. but we do know that before the government papers were removed from mar a lago corcoran drafted a letter in june two fellow federal authorities saying that all classified documents had been returned from president trump. it was also signed by another attorney. let's get some legal analysis now with cnn's senior legal analyst elie honig , former federal and state prosecutor. ellie let's start with this development in the classified documents probe your understanding of corcoran's testimony tomorrow. what are prosecutors going to be looking for? boris? this is a big win by the justice department. they went to a judge, and they argued , we should be able to break through the traditional strongly held attorney client privilege because of something called the crime fraud exception, prosecutors showed to a judge's satisfaction not beyond a reasonable doubt by a low or standard. that these
12:12 pm
communications between donald trump and the lawyer, evan corcoran, were part of some sort of ongoing crime or fraud. now, i think it's fair to assume from this or to reason from this that they're looking at obstruction of justice. we know that in part because one of the bases for searching mara lago in the first place, according to the court papers, was potential obstruction of justice. and as you said, there was this affirmation that trump's lawyers put together and gave to doj saying we've given you all the classified documents. of course, that turned out to be untrue because the search a couple of months later her revealed that there were still over 100 classified documents. so i think that's where doj is focusing. they will get to question the lawyer corcoran tomorrow, and he will have to answer those questions. and so, ellie, let's stay with this federal case that we're talking about right now, let's let's go to tomorrow, he's testified. what is the best outcome for the doj here? what would be the best outcome? what are the trump attorneys hoping that are actually still representing him? not the one that will be testifying. right. well, i think the most incriminating outcomes so i guess best in that sense for doj
12:13 pm
and worse for donald trump is if corcoran says donald trump is the one who told us that these documents had all been turned over and later on, we realized that was not true. in other words, i think doj is trying to identify the source of the lie because this communication went from the client trump. over to the attorneys who was christina, bob and corcoran. and so somebody is knowingly lying there and maybe other people were lied to. and so i think that's what doj is really trying to dig in on ellie, let's pivot to the manhattan investigation into these alleged hush money payments that donald trump made to the adult film actress. stormy daniels. um the sources close to the investigation are telling cnn that there's a possibility that they may get additional testimony. the grand jury from someone they've already heard from wondering what you make of that. so this happens sometimes at trials what you call a rebuttal witness. in other words, the prosecution here has put all its evidence in front of the grand jury. then trump sent in this lawyer,
12:14 pm
robert costello, who apparently did some damage, presumably to the testimony of michael cohen. and so now the prosecution is trying to think. how do we respond to this and boris the fact that this is happening at the grand jury level, the fact that prosecutors are trying to strategize on how they sort of salvage what damage costello data is really a bad sign. because the grand jury should be the easy part for prosecutors. you have a much lower burden of proof. you only have to prove your case by preponderance of the evidence, not beyond a reasonable doubt, you only need to win over a majority of the grand jurors, as opposed to unanimous which you would need at trial. so if you're having this much trouble in the grand jury phase as a prosecutor that's got to make you a little worried about how things might play at trial. that's such an interesting point, and i think it's worth pointing out as well. that you know alvin bragg that the district attorney in this case, and obviously he's got a lot of pressure on him right now and is at the center of all of this. we also have some reporting that they're kind of taking a step back the regrouping. they're kind of taking a beat as they absorb
12:15 pm
kind of what's happened and unfolded over the last several days. what do you think if you're him and knowing him as you do? how is he surveying all of this? and what should he be thinking about and considering right now? yeah i have been critical of the merits of this case. based on what we know. i do know alvin bragg. i used to work with him as a federal prosecutor. i do respect his judgment. but again, i have been and will remain critical of what we believe to be the merits of this case. i think there's a couple of things going on here. first of all, perhaps he's just taking a breath and thinking about this. this is a monumental historic decision. and if he needs to take another three days or a week to think it through, that's probably worth it. it also could be as carol reported that they're looking to bring another witness down, and the final thing is i would want to absolutely minimize the time if i had a date set when donald trump was going to come down to manhattan and surrender where i had to coordinate the security, i would want to absolutely minimize the time between that and the unsealing of an indictment. so if i was in alvin bragg position i would look to indict on day one whenever that
12:16 pm
is and then bring donald trump down on day two, because you don't want you want as little time as possible, in between those two things in between the indictment and the actual in court appearance because my view, only things can go wrong in that interval. right the longer it goes on, the more spectacle, the higher risk. something can go wrong. always. thanks for your expertise. we appreciate it. thanks to you both. troubling developments out of uganda, where identifying as lgbtq is already punishable by life in prison. but now it could be punishable by death. how the world is reacting to this historically harsh law that's next. plus the ukrainian commander says that ukraine will go on the offensive in bach mood very soon as more allies are rushing in the fight against russia. we'll be right back. from friends coming over. so

12:24 pm
how realistic it is that they could reclaim some of that territory. yeah, it's really interesting. boris and it's great to be with you and jessica the big thing here when it comes to mahmoud is that the way in which the russians are controlling this territory really leaves it open to a lot of moves by the ukrainians is some localized areas, so they're moving in with some troops. they're coming in. they're trying to get a control of areas that are really basically urban wasteland right now, and when they do that, they are not really using the types of forces that would be required to hold the city for a long time. so as a result, the ukrainians can come in and potentially take back the city. although you know, as we can see with our own eyes. it's not really a very hospitable place to say the least. and colonel wagner. boss you've gaining pre goes in, has
12:25 pm
complained he's not getting enough help from the russian military again. that's that mercenary group. he's got a rivalry with members of the m o d. what is this? all tell you about russia's internal politics. well, jessica their mess the internal politics, you know, with precaution versus the defense minister sergei shoigu. and you know the entire army. i they really really shows that there is a real discord behind them. the one key thing that you want to have in a war is unity of command. and this really points out that the russians have a divided command, which means that they are far less effective than they would otherwise be a couple that with all of logistical problems that they have all the issues that they've had with recruitment and the training their troops, the weaponry that they're using, and they have a serious problem on their hands. they can mount offensive operations, but they cannot sustain them is what
12:26 pm
we're learning. colonel want to get your thoughts on the new armaments on their way to ukraine today, slovakia handed over four fighter jets these old soviet mig 29 later this week, spain is going to be sending its first shipment of modern battle tanks. what do you think these weapons will do in the battlefield? what role are they going to play? so i think most importantly, for the ukrainians , the battle tanks will probably play a larger role than the fighters will just because of the way in which forces have been employed. this war really favors the ground forces. at the moment, however, the mig 29 from slovakia and then eventually from poland as well, i can make a big difference because the ukrainians know how to use these. and once these airplanes are actually employed. by the ukrainians, and they are used in a tactical scenarios such as
12:27 pm
perhaps mahmoud. perhaps serious down south, they can have localized impacts that could turn the tide of battle in favor of the ukrainians, and it's really what the doctor ordered when it comes to potential offensive operations that the ukrainians might be mounting. i, you know the next few weeks or months. right could be exactly the right time for that. colonel cedric leighton. thanks so much. we appreciate it. still ahead of colorado dentist now charged with first degree murder. police say he was behind the quote, heinous, complex and calculated poisoning of his wife. what we learned at his first court hearing today next. engagemenent rings now up to 40% off. you found the one now find the ring sales. the diamond store. i have sleep apnea. couldn't yo? cpap

12:33 pm
died. prior to her death, angela was hospitalized at least three times with mysterious symptoms, according to the arrest affidavit, james ordered arsenic and cyanide while searching the internet for undetectable poisons. cnn's jean casarez is following this for us, jeanne in this affidavit, some of his search history quote how many grams of pure arsenic will kill a human wow. right along with some youtube videos of how to make poison now. today he has been formally charged with first degree murder is the highest murder charge in colorado. it is life in prison if convicted, and according to the legal documents , we see a timeline here. let's show everybody first of all on march 6th. that is when authorities say that there are records that he received his first order of arsenic that he had ordered. now i want to tell you a legal documents also say that during this whole time period. he is communicating on the internet with a romantic
12:34 pm
interest who he flew in, according to the documents while his wife was in the hospital. all right now, on march 6th, his wife was admitted to the hospital. she didn't feel well. she had a lot of symptoms. he then orders another drug at that time, oleandrin. the delivery was intercepted, though however , he never got it. but then on march 9th to 14th when she was re admitted into the hospital, and then she died on the 15th. he orders potassium cyanide when he orders that they asked him on the form. why are you ordering it? and he said that he was a surgeon, and he had to order order it for cranial reconstruction. so i want to show you now on the sixth, which was the day that she originally started feeling bad. here's a text that is part of the legal documents, she says. quote i feel drugged and his response is given your history i know that must be triggering just for the
12:35 pm
record. i didn't drug you. i am super worried, though you really looked pale before i left like in your lips even and she had been visiting her sister and her sister. told law enforcement that she had just been informed by angela that 5 to 6 years ago. james did drug her. but he drugged her because he said he was going to commit suicide and didn't want her to stop him. wow gene, that is a lot there to take in my goodness. all right. thank you. so much for that reporting jean casarez in new york. also in colorado. police confirmed that the teen suspect who shot two faculty members yesterday at a denver high school has been found dead, authorities say 17 year old austin lyle was being searched for weapons when he allegedly pulled out a gun and started shooting. cnn's whitney wild has been following all the developments and whitney we know there was a safety plan in place for this particular student. ah
12:36 pm
what else are you learning about the suspect? well what we're learning is pretty limited at this point because he's a juvenile. up until yesterday afternoon. officials were reluctant to release any details about the suspect because he's a juvenile. but then later they decided that he presented such a severe risk to the community that they were willing to start putting out his name at his age. what we know again is that he's 17 year old austin lyle. he was to undergo a safety check every day that he went into that school. that safety check involved a pat down every day. according to officials he had never produced a weapon until yes, yesterday. they were reluctant to give details about why this particular student had a safety plan in place. but they said in general, it is based on past educational as well as behavioral experiences with that particular students, so much more to learn on that, as we move forward, the big question is, of course, how are the victims and we are waiting for more details on their conditions
12:37 pm
. but what we can tell you are their names that is eric sinclair and gerald mason to members of the administrative staff. they're both operating in the dean's office. and so as we wait, there are so many more questions than answers at this point. namely what are denver public schools going to do? moving forward to ensure the safety of students as well as faculty? there are several events today there's a we are awaiting a press conference from denver public schools to answer more of those questions. but what i can tell you is that this point the superintendent for denver public schools, says that they are going to put two armed police officers at that high school. well at east high school in denver. for the remainder of the year. for now, classes are canceled its spring break next week, but beginning in early april, there will be two armed police officers at that school. in addition, there will be an armed police officer at all of the comprehensive high schools throughout denver. however this new policy flies in the face of a policy that was put in place in 2020, which removed police
12:38 pm
officers from denver public schools superintendent sending a letter out to parents last night , saying he is willing to accept accept the consequences of his action. but he says he simply cannot sit by now, and he believes it is in the public interest in the safety of students and faculties. interest to put these armed police officers in faith in place, even if it goes against that passed resolution back to you. yeah, really stunning that the mayor of denver, michael hancock also was admitting that a mistake was made removing school resource officers from those schools whitney wild thanks so much for the report. still ahead this afternoon, an off duty pilot jumps into action on a southwest flight. you'll hear that story and the cockpit audio next. kennedy center presents the mark twain prize for american humor celebrating g adamson. with spspecial guests sunday at eight exclusively on cnn, wells fargo

12:53 pm
and that she had really put her life on hold while she supported her excess tom brady's football career and now she there's been so much wide speculation that the two divorced and announced their divorce in the fall because after he unretired it's kind of like when we saw their marriage really unravel. so many have said. it's because he went back to football and that you know if you want to make it so black and white that he chose football over her. now she's saying not so fast, regional quote that giselle says in the interview, she says, listen, i have always cheered for him and i would continue forever. if there's one person i want to be the happiest in the world. it's him. believe me, i want him to achieve and to conquer. all of his dreams have come true, and that's what i really want from the bottom of my heart. and she said, it's just crazy. easy that people think that she divorced him over football. look they've been together since their twenties. they have children together. thompson married before it's complicated. we all know that marriage and relationships are complicated, but she's getting out there in a very public way. talking about

this next chapter of her life, post divorce, and she's on the cover of this magazine talking about her new life in costa rica , where she spends the majority of her time now. you don't usually hear x is talking in such glowing terms, right? that was that was a really special remarks from her, chloe. we also heard from tom on this. what did he say? so tom opened up after the announcement of their divorce on his podcast, and he said that he loves his family and that it was amicable. now, as you are noting, boris, you know who knows what's really going on. truly behind the scenes of this very complicated relationship and divorce that played out in a very public and sort of bombshell way, but they have spoke very supportively of each other. they have been co parenting their two children together, and he just said that he wanted to focus on football. now the irony of it all is that not too long after that, and
12:55 pm
after the divorce, he ends up retiring for good. there was someone social media saying that perhaps they would then give back together, but it doesn't look like any signs of reconciliation. but you know what? look. marriages they can sometimes run their course. and at the end of the day, there are two kids and it's really important that they can co parent, so i think as somebody who covers hollywood, it's really refreshing to see them not blast each other negatively in public, so i actually like, commend them both. and it will be interesting to see what giselle does next because it sounds like she has been waiting to get back into the spotlight for quite a while. right. and here she is, on the cover of vanity fair. that's like an announce a very large announcement of i'm back, but yes, it is and look at it must be hard to have everyone prying into what is clearly a very personal situation. alright, chloe. thank you so much for running through that with us. we appreciate it. of course. thank you all for joining us today. i'm jessica dean to be with you. as always. jessica i'm boris sanchez. the lead with jake tapper starts in just a few
