6:00 am
you live today and in the future cr entire family of furniture at floyd home .com. hbos over time with bill maher now on cnn tonight at 11 30. good morning, everyone. i'm john berman. developing this morning. we are getting new information about the u. s retaliation after a drone attack killed an american contractor and wounded five u. s service members in syria. this video appears to show the aftermath of that strike. the pentagon believes the drone that
6:01 am
hit a base housing u. s personnel. they believe that drone was iranian. it made u. s forces quickly struck back targeting facilities used by iran's revolutionary guard, so, says u s officials say u. s officials this morning cnn got reaction from the white house. we don't seek a war with iran. we're not looking for an armed conflict with that country or another war in the region. we do seek to protect our mission in syria. all of this is unfolding as president biden is set to meet with the canadian prime minister justin trudeau. we are alive in ottawa. we're waiting to hear from the president himself. on this attack in syria. also just a few minutes ago. you can see him there in the back of him. that is trump attorney evan corcoran, arriving at a washington dc courthouse. he just entered the building. he is going to testify today before a grand jury in the mara lago classified documents probe and he will do so without the protection of attorney client
6:02 am
privilege. first that we are getting new information about this deadly flare up of hostilities in syria overnight, president biden ordered retaliatory airstrikes after a drone attack killed a u. s contractor. five u. s. service members and another u. s contractor were also wounded. cnn's natasha bertrand is covering all this for us has the latest information now, natasha, what are u. s officials say? johnson. we're being told that that are suspected iranian drone that attacked a u. s based in syria and killed a u. s contractor and wounded several other service members. u. s service members was a one way suspected iranian attack drone that intentionally crashed into its target. we are told, of course, the us did retaliate. they targeted facilities in syria that the u. s believes were being used by iranian proxy groups in order to support those groups with munitions and intelligence secretary of defense lloyd austin saying that this strong right. this airstrike was carried out in response to several recent
6:03 am
attacks by these iranian proxy groups. president joe biden ordering a u. s airstrike in eastern syria thursday after us intelligence assessed that an iranian origin drone killed an american contractor and wounded five u. s service members and another u. s contractor, biden authorized the straight quote against facilities used by groups affiliated with iran's islamic revolutionary guard, corps secretary of defense lloyd austin said in a statement. the department of defense said quote took proportionate and deliberate action intended to limit the risk of escalation and minimize casualties. the u. s military maintains approximately 900 u. s. troops in syria, some of which are there as part of a coalition to defeat isis. but those forces are often under attack by iranian proxies. iran's vast and deeply resourced proxy forces spread instability throughout the region and threaten our regional partners, the commander of us central command said in a statement.
6:04 am
following the story, quote, we're postured for scale will options in the face of any additional iranian attacks. testifying on capitol hill thursday, carrillo said that iranian proxies have carried out attacks on us forces in the middle east 78 times since the beginning of 2021. so what iran does to hide its hand as they use iranian proxies. that's that's either you waves or rockets to be able to attack our forces in either iraq or syria. are these considered acts of war? by iran. they are being done by the iranian proxies is what i would tell you, congressman, the biden administration is carried out multiple airstrikes against militias affiliated with iran following previous attacks on u. s facilities in the region. biden's first known military action was a strike in february , 2021 after rocket attacks on us troops in iraq. general carrillo, who is the commander of central command. he did provide important context for all of this last week, telling lawmakers that currently iran
6:05 am
possesses the most diverse and largest missile arsenal in the middle east and also has the largest and most capable, unmanned aerial vehicle force in the region. so all of that, of course really concerning the us here, and we should note that these u. s service members, four of them were actually medically evacuated to iraq, and we are told that they are currently in stable condition. in john. natasha, please keep us posted on their well being. thank you. so much for that report with me now is retired u s general wesley clark. general. thanks so much for being with us. natasha reporting that the u. s. says there's been 78 drone strikes within that syria region since 2021 by these iranian proxies first. what does that mean? iranian proxy when we're talking about this number two what are they up to? if they're striking the us so much there? so these are groups that are affiliated with hizbollah or other groups in the region. they are conducting resupply reconnaissance operations.
6:06 am
they're building their forces against israel. um they're supporting bashar assad. to some extent, uh, the israelis go against them and our mission there is to support our allies. both are kurdish allies working against isis and also we collected information and intelligence now why this is particularly disturbing is when they're able to bring accurate targeting against the united states and inflict casualties. uh this raises the level of risk for our personnel in the region. attacks mortars and mortar falls inaccurately and so forth. that's an attack. a drone that hits uh, a berks facility and takes out five service members. that's a different order of magnitude. so we're retaliating . the question is, will we have to actually defend against these drones? in order to maintain our footprint in the region? we don't want to do that. obviously. we don't want to escalate against iran, as the
6:07 am
secretary of defense said, so this is raising the risks for us and creating some policy dilemmas. if it does create this new level as you're describing, if the iranian proxies can't hit us troops with these precision weapons, what then do you do about it? is this precision strike so called by us officials in retaliation enough? well, we don't know. i mean, it's really goes back to what the iranian intent is. can they keep us off balance enough and the israelis off balance enough to build up their forces to maintain their leverage against israel? their relationship syria? these are all variables that are that are evaluated by the iranians, and then they determine the next course of action. well they like to drive us out of the region. absolutely. that would have been greater control in the region or reduce our ability to support iraq and give them greater influence there. it's all part of iran's quest for regional hegemony and with her to block
6:08 am
it in a very and we're doing so in a very efficient, safe manner . we don't need these kind of drone strikes. you know, iran is raising its raising the bar. it's got the relationship with russia and china is just helped restore relationships, so we're entering a new era in the region . talk to me about that wider picture because iran's got its fingers in ukraine. also the russians are using iranian drones to attack the ukrainians here. that's just that's that's right, and there's a possibility they're going to build a factory in ukraine, or maybe in crimea or in russia to be able to manufacture more drones there. so you know this is all part of iran's quest to return to great power status. it's the regional hegemony and they're using russia. they're usually relationship with china. they feel a little bit more confident. and uh, there's still struggling with enormous
6:09 am
internal resistance of these protests that began last fall or are still continuing to some extent inside iran. the regime is not stable, and it projects itself and builds its reputation by these kinds of actions externally. general clark. thank you so much for helping us understand what we are seeing. this may just be one chapter in the continuing story there. i appreciate it and again. we are waiting to hear from president biden on this attack in person. he is traveling in canada. in the meantime, just a few minutes ago, donald trump's attorney, every corcoran arrived at a washington d. c courthouse. you can see him there to testify to a grand jury without the protection of attorney client privilege. corcoran must also hand over documents and notes related to his legal work with the former president. this is all about the mar a lago classified documents investigation. cnn's caitlin poland's live outside the courthouse in washington, d. c evan corcoran is inside caitlin. so what's happening? indeed even
6:10 am
corcoran is inside the courthouse, and we do believe he's back with the grand jury at this point, a little bit after nine. he's attorney is here as well. so it is quite clear that he isn't complying with this court order that he provide answers he did not want to give and that his client, donald trump, did not want him to give to the grand jury about their communications as the federal government was trying to get to trying to get back classified records. at mar a lago we learned last night from my colleague sara murray. and a source. she was speaking with that what they want to ask him about is that response after may of last year, where the federal government sent a subpoena demanding all classified records be returned to them, and they're clearly were conversations between corcoran and donald trump, then, including in june. that is what we know they want to ask him about, and that he is going to have to respond to today inside the grand jury. he did. isco in a few minutes ago,
6:11 am
and typically, these types of appearances can last for hours, so we are going to be waiting. it is entirely confidential. what happens inside that grand jury room so we won't be able to see it like we do other court hearings. but this is really a critical day for the special counsel's investigation and also a really unusual day. to have a lawyer for donald trump being forced to come back to court and testify again, john it is incredibly unusual. caitlin poland's we know you're watching it closely. let us know when the white smoke comes out of the building when people emerge when there is information about what went on in there. appreciate it. joined now by former federal prosecutor and cnn legal analyst jennifer rogers. jennifer as we've been saying, this is highly unusual for a defense attorney to have to testify like this, the prosecution the special counsel, obviously this is a big get for them. they got him there. what do they now need to try to get from him? caitlin said. the first thing, which is the circumstances around the certification that was submitted
6:12 am
in response to the subpoena, saying, we have diligently searched for all documents that we have no more documents with classified markings. that document was drafted by evan corcoran. but he didn't sign it. christina bob, another trump lawyer, signed it. so the question is. where did they get that information? did they get that information from trump? why did christina bob sign everything around that certification? the second really important thing is that there was a conversation between corcoran and trump on the day that the trump organization received a subpoena for surveillance footage from mar a lago. people were seeing bringing boxes in and out of the storage room. why did they do that? what was that conversation ? i mean, you can imagine what would have happened. we got this subpoena. what's going on at mara lago with the boxes, mr trump and that conversation, so that's another topic. they're gonna uncork perhaps at this very moment is going through something that very few attorneys have ever gone through . you haven't certainly sitting before a grand jury having to testify about your client. what are the just the challenges for him the professional check. challenges for him. this is something you obviously would
6:13 am
never want to do when you talk to your client in that context is supposed to be confidential. you don't really have to worry about talking around things right? you can be fully candid with one another under that protection. that protection has now gone away, so that's not great for him. listen he doesn't have a choice here. he could take the fifth. but i don't think he will. that's not a great look for him professionally. it means you're not testifying because it might incriminate yourself, which in theory a lawyer should be in the business of incriminating himself for anything he might say. right right. and it's probably not true, right? i mean , the government at least, doesn't think that he actually was involved in this conspiracy . they think that trump lied to him, so they either would go challenge that invocation or probably just give him immunity, so they're going to get at it anyway, so he's got to answer just about everything. yeah i mean everything that he didn't answer before they had him in before, so now they're just going back to the questions that he said attorney client privilege in vocation and asking those alright, well, that is going on in washington here in new york today, i joke.
6:14 am
nothing's happening with alvin bragg, the manhattan district attorney's investigation into donald trump regarding the stormy daniels hush money payments, things connected to that. the grand jury's not meeting today. we think they are going to meet again on monday. donald trump overnight put out this statement on his social media platform, where he cited that the possibility of death and destruction. alvin bragg presses charges your dangled that theory out there. i don't want to ask you an attorney about the propriety of a human being saying that he also continues to say things that are that are racist. if you are in the office of alvin bragg, if you are a prosecutor, how do you react to something like that? it's really hard to be under. first of all this kind of scrutiny. of course it is around this whole case. but those kind of threats are really disturbing for anyone. i mean, listen, alvin is a professional. i promise you. i know him. well, he will not be daunted by that sort of shenanigans by the former president. but it is troubling. i mean, obviously they'll have additional security and those sorts of things but to
6:15 am
be under that kind of attack is really disturbing. but in the end you know it won't matter to him. they'll of course. move ahead with their case. jennifer rogers. great to have you here. thank you very much. the u. s and canada have struck a deal to address a sharp increase in migrants over the northern border. we are live in ottawa as president biden is set to speak to the canadian parliament. shocking video of the shooting in broad daylight for gunmen spraying more than 60 rounds hos in critical condition what police are saying about the search for suspects? tiktok ceo getting into heated exchanges with lawmakers looking to ban the platform in the us, we will speak to an expert who says that may be harder than you think. think about the best night's sleep y you've ever had a tempe, pedic. . we're dedicated to helping you sleep like that, with breakthrough solutions that help relieve pressure and pains . keep you cool if you sleep hot and even automatically detect and respond to snoring, so you get the deep, comfortable,

6:20 am
. cnn has recently reported on the increased flow over the canadian border. cnn's paula newton is live in ottawa first, let's go to cnn's priscilla alvarez in washington with the reporting priscilla on what this new asylum deal would do. and this would ultimately john restrict the migrants who are seeking protection in canada because what's happening here and what's become urgent for canada is that there's been an influx of migrants coming from the u. s into canada. so what is this agreement that's called the safe third country agreement was signed in 2002 implemented in 2004, and it applies to individuals crossing at official border crossings, also known as ports of entry, so if they cross through, they can seek protection in canada. but if they came from the us yes, and they can also claim asylum in the us, which is deemed a safe country, then canada can push them back to continue that claim in the united states what it didn't apply to the was unofficial border crossings and what has been happening as of
6:21 am
late. is there's been an influx of migrants crossing and rocks him road that is a street connecting new york and quebec, and they have seen an influx of migrants crossing there nearly 5000 in january canadian authority, according to canadian statistics, so what the canadians have been trying to do is close that loophole, and now we know that they have reached a deal. so that means that migrants who cross at that road as well could be turned back to the united states, and vice versa. now, of course we've been hearing from the biden administration about an influx of border crossings on the u. s southern border. they're also seeing migrants crossed from canada into the us those numbers , though still low, nearly 2000 since october into february. in a day, john just to give you some perspective on the u. s southern border authorities can encounter up to 5000. so of course, these numbers are still small in comparison, but it was a point and an issue that needed to be raised between the us and canada and one that after years
6:22 am
is being resolved, paula newton , you had a chance to speak with the canadian prime minister. what's his thinking on the immigration situation? yeah it's been top of mind here, despite the numbers that priscilla just pointed out, and i can tell you, john, i've been along that road for several years have gone and you can see us border patrol doing nothing to stop at times hundreds of migrants in a day from crossing illegally into canada. what we're going to learn is that that is about to change. i want you to listen now to justin trudeau talking to me yesterday in a sit down interview about what he hopes this new agreement will mean take a listen. canada's always willing to do more. we're a country that has been built like the united states on welcoming people from around the world. we just need to make sure we're doing it in responsible, proper ways to continue to have our citizens positive towards immigration. so when we talk about doing more, what does he mean? he means actually helping out the united states by taking
6:23 am
in more asylum seekers, perhaps even from that southern border now, john a busy day ahead here, i'll tell you, it's bright and beautiful, but pretty cold. the president will be inside addressing the parliament after that, they'll have a joint meeting of both cabinets. and after that, a joint press conference this issue about doing more john the whole theme about the united states coming here with their officials as they want canada step to step up in many areas, including defense spending. u s officials, quite frankly, had told me for weeks that their expectations were low . perhaps they set them deliberately, john because they have this immigration deal, something they didn't think was possible. also looking for more as i said, though, on defense spending, and they may have more announcements to come later this afternoon. paula newton in ottawa. i think it is the canadian national slogan bright and beautiful, but pretty cold. thank you for being with us. priscilla alvarez are thanks to you as well. so one year old child is safe in safe hands this morning after u. s border patrol agents say a smuggler. left the child at the us mexico border.

shooting on the streets of philadelphia has left two teenagers fighting for their lives. four gunmen at least one with a semiautomatic weapon opened fire. it happened in broad daylight. the victims were 2 16 year olds and a 13 year old. two of them are in critical condition. cnn's brynn gingras is with me now, bren. what do police know about the suspects? i mean, this is one where the video shows it all. i mean, it's brazen and it's terrifying. authorities are now looking for five people who are part of this shooting one being the getaway driver. but yes, those victims they hit three teenagers one just 13 years old, a 16 year old during critical condition in the hospital, but you can see the video there. authorities say those four people went and fired those guns like you said. one of them a semiautomatic rifle. 60 rounds were shot and i'm told by authorities that this is an area of the city of philadelphia that is quite vibrant. there was plenty of people around when this took place. i want you to hear more from the captain in
6:30 am
the philadelphia police department. automatic gun going off with broad daylight. broad daylight on the streets. city philadelphia, four miles just shooting up the block shooting on you know, with with no, no care in the world. it seems to me it's very concerning. it's disappointing and these people need to be held accountable. and of course, they're still looking for those people to hold them accountable. a gun was recovered . we're told that the serial number, though, was completely taken off obliterated as they said, and so the search continues, john. but, of course now in philadelphia, there is a merrill primary coming up. we know gun issues such a major topic all across this country, and certainly this video just brings that top of mind. bridging gross. thank you. please keep us posted. so just moments ago, u. s markings opened and they did open lower as a european bank. another one comes under the spotlight. stocks at germany's deutsche bank's fell sharply today after
6:31 am
a surge in the cost to ensure the bank against defaulting those fears for the european banking sector of being felt here in the us guess who's here ? chief business correspondent christine romans. what's going on? because i'm here doesn't mean bad things happen all the time. it kind of does, though. this i think is deutsche bank. big german bank, a big salad, solid german bank the cost to ensure it against default. credit default swap has gotten a little more expensive, right? and so that's sparking some concerns in the banking sector. there was also a big analyst downgrade of the entire sector to neutral from overweight, which is, you know, wall street jargon for don't have a lot of these stocks in your portfolio. and so investors are following suit, so we still have that those jitters in the banking system about changes that are happening because of a year of interest rate hikes. quite frankly, that sort of change the change the status quo for a lot of these banks and investors get nervous about that. so this is more about investors being nervous in these banks, not about customers in these banks being nervous, john, there's this cycle that seems to be going on and we had the big
6:32 am
board up there a minute ago. people can see the markets opening down about 100 130 points. there's this cycle that's happening where the banks are having these issues. people are appropriately concerned or taking measures to deal with the fact that the banks are having these issues. then investors get nervous because people are taking measures to protect themselves against the issues of bank. you're happy. i mean, it's just this cycle. how does it stop? that's exactly right. and you had ken rogoff on this program yesterday who made a very good point that some of that that tightening in the financial sector is actually going to help the fed do its job, but it's in a disorderly way, and it doesn't affect everybody the same. it doesn't affect all the banks the same all the customers the same, so we're in kind of a tumultuous period. right now. i keep saying that the fed's decision is in our rear view mirror, but i'm looking out the windshield and it's just as cloudy as it was last week. we still don't know if inflation is really under control. yet we don't know how this medicine in the economy has worked. overall we think the banking system is solid because all these central banks have basically vowed that they're going to make sure that things
6:33 am
are okay here. investors though, are a little skittish. i will say, though i'm watching the interest rate gauges neck week. we're going to the pc. that's the fed's preferred. inflation gauge, and we'll see if that's cooled off a little bit. but mortgage rates have cooled off second week in a row that mortgage rates now 30 year fixed 6.42% which i think is sort of telling, and we're heading into the spring buying season. and so there is some actual optimism, maybe that mortgage rates could track with inflation expectations. and if we get inflation coming down that could put to give some relief december sleeping that optimism at the end because you don't want to be known as someone only brings back those bank stocks. i mean, it's going to be a tough day. a tough morning at least all the banks accident, even the big, well capitalized banks. it's just a confidence something you're looking for in terms of the banks. that would make people feel comfortable. is there some sign that would alert people like? hey it really is. okay so the thing is, is that confidence is so important in the american banking system, and i think that what we've been hearing from regulators and from for example, the treasury secretary. also, the longer we
6:34 am
go without a bank failure, i think is kind of good stability will breed stability. and i think no news would be good news on that front and then time can heal. that time can heal those wounds. i do want to say that this is a problem for investors , not for bank customers. it is really important to make that distinction. christine romans, great to see you have a good weekend. so tiktok ceo under fire from lawmakers on capitol hill over privacy concerns and the apps ties to china. why the chair of the committee that love the hearing says that they exposed tiktok's lies. own a small to medium sized business. you may qualify for the employer retention t tax credit up to $26,000 per employee, not alone . . the money is yours if your business suffered during covid revenue drops or government shutdowns, time is limited to refunds. pro dot com now takes five minutes, and the average refund is $247,000 with refunds

6:39 am
iranian affiliated drone that hit a facility housing u. s personnel. five u. s service members were injured in an additional u. s contractor was wounded. we are learning that all of the u. s service members injured are in stable condition, so that's good news. president biden authorized with the u. s calls. precision airstrike in response against facilities believed to be used by the group that they think is responsible for the attack. cnn's nic robertson is with me now and nick, i was surprised to learn there have been 78. drone strikes since 2021 from these iranian proxy groups. that's an awful lot, but this one was fatal and deadly and elicited a response, creating a pretty delicate situation. yeah it does . i mean, consider the delicate situation in this way. and there are many ways to consider it, of course, but one part of the puzzle at the moment. is the united states trying to pull off a deal to get some american citizens that have been illegally held in in iranian jails for number of years now trying to get them out, and that
6:40 am
does appear to be getting reasonably close to fruition. the iranians seem to want to make it happen. just a couple of weeks ago, they tweeted out that actually, the deal had been done , the white house said. no, that's not the not the case, but that point being that's going on in the background. the iranians want something out of this. president biden definitely wants something out of it as well. no one's going to compromise their position. but of course, an escalation around this attack, and there isn't an escalation at the moment. but if there was that could put that sort of deal in jeopardy. of course, that would be worrying from the family members. but of course you have as well. you know, iran trying to maintain its influence in syria. where the bigger diplomatic picture is changing president assad as sort of been welcomed by some of his arab neighbors as a rapprochement that's going on that came out in part of the of the earthquake in syria recently, the support that was provided so that diplomatic door is opening could be the
6:41 am
iranians are worried that they they see their arab neighbors long unfriendly towards them, returning back to syria and squeezing them out of space. there are so many potential dynamics that you can put one finger on any specific one. but all of that is in the background here, but but the risk of escalation that that that's real again. the iranian proxy groups have been doing this for some time. is there anything that the united states do? could do? or maybe it would be willing to do with the better question to stop it. i think there's always that concern with iran that as you push them in one place than they up something somewhere else. they have a lot of proxies. everyone at the moment is talking about how their proxies the houthis in yemen have dialed back their violence, sending missiles into into saudi arabia . if you press down on the iranians in syria, do they get
6:42 am
their proxies there to startup? do their boxes in hezbollah in that process, hezbollah evidence, start up and create increased tensions with with israel. there's anyway that iran can ramp up, but primarily that beef if you will, that issue with the united states is they want them out of the region and will continue through process to try to attack to try to diminish the will to stay but the u. s troops in syria they're predominantly to tackle isis. um isis until recently has been more deadly against us forces in syria than the iranians have, um , again. it's a very, very complex situation, but to your 0.78 attacks since 2021 that's an average of one almost every 10 days that significant and it can't be overlooked, and i think that's very clearly why there was such a fast response. not just that. the president said. yes do something quickly that
6:43 am
there was a target list ready to go to you've seen in the video. so those sort of secondary explosions and in the past when they have been response. strikes by the united states have targeted ammunition dumps. we don't know what was hit this time, but it looked like it could have been it's a very good point, apparently a target list at the ready there, nic robertson. thank you so much for helping us understand this. this morning, china says it has never and will never asked chinese companies to turn over data on foreign users. the remarks comes the remarks come a day after house lawmakers grilled tiktok ceo show chew for more than five hours to insisted china does not control tiktok through its chinese parent company, bytedance. i have seen no evidence that the chinese government has access to that data. they have never asked us. we have not provided. you know what? i have asked that question. i find that actually preposterous. any american person employees in china, including engineers currently have access to u. s data. congressman would appreciate
6:44 am
this. this is a complex topic today. all data stored by that complex. yes or no? do they have access to user data we have after project texas is the done . the answer is no. i don't believe that it is technically possible to accomplish what tiktok says it will accomplish through project texas. alright with us now is an coco's, a university of virginia professor and author of trafficking data. how china is winning the battle for digital sovereignty professor. thanks so much for being with us members of congress were not willing to take the tiktok ceos award for it when he said, china can't get this data. there is reason for these members of congress to be skeptical of that word. why. so there are two reasons one has to do with china's expansive framework for digital sovereignty, so things like the national data security law and the hong kong national security law where the chinese government
6:45 am
claims control over over data globally. there's also the weakness of us data security and data protections, which means that members of congress and tech ceo can't really be sure tech ceos can't really can really be very flexible in terms of what actually they share with members of congress given our current legal environment. yeah i mean, flat out, though, for these members of congress hard to just take his word for it. on the other hand, though, professor, is there anything that he could have said to mollify members of congress. do you think? you know, i think it's really tough in this particular moment where we have china expanding its digital sovereignty, its digital oversight globally, and we also have really exploitative environment in the us where tech companies can basically gather almost whatever they want and use it in a lot of different ways that they might want to. so the part of the problem is that congress has an act to protect data user data in the u. s. it's tiktok granted, you know, tiktok
6:46 am
is owned by bytedance. which does have you know, or the chinese government does have access to different parts of bytedance that aside, if you can place it aside is tiktok materially different from other social media companies in terms of what they can get from you as the consumer so i don't think that we really can place that ownership question. aside from the fact that tiktok tiktok parent company is bytedance that being said, i do think it is a it is an important point to note that a wide range of us tech companies can gather data about us that we would not want them to be gathering if we if we really had a full day in depth understanding of it. the other thing is there's a system called data brokering, which means that those companies can also sell that data to other companies that can then share it. so it's really a complicated dynamic here in the u. s. and a lot of it has to do with the fact that we don't have the types of protections that people in europe and australia and japan and korea have over our data.
6:47 am
and i do appreciate you making the point that you really just can't put the fact that by dance owns tiktok aside there because that is a major issue. so what do you say to the 150 million? hey. tiktok users here in the us who, just like their puppy videos, and they're like why? why are they trying to ban this? why are they trying to keep me from seeing my, you know, dancing puppies? i mean, it's really tough. so at the university of virginia, i teach a class called the data ethics of tiktok, where we talk about this. and even when my students understand the geopolitical implications, their argument is i can't socialize if i don't have access to my tiktok account, so i think that this is why it needs to just not be an issue of closing down one company but also looking at the larger us data security environment. now that being said politically, it's really tough to move forward with things like data minimization. laws and data privacy laws in the us so one of the reasons why i think there might be a focus on tiktok is
6:48 am
it's something where there's bipartisan consensus and it may be more feasible, moving forward that being said it wouldn't be easy to say how how easy would it be to ban tiktok? no so there are a lot of technical challenges here and a lot of legal challenges. so we saw when there was this effort to ban what we chat earlier. there were first amendment challenges. i would anticipate that we would see a lot of those. we also have the question of how technically that would work. so does it require, for example, cooperation from apple and their appstore apple, which relies on china for its digital supply chains for major markets. um and so it's really difficult to see how a band would move forward, even if it's politically feasible to get all members on board to vote for it. professor and caucus. i'm signing up for your class. if i can take it remotely. it sounds fascinating. and it's right. on point. thank you so much for being with us. thank you so much. take care. a stunning finish in the sweet 16

6:54 am
online and i mean butter sales. i mean, like, coach said, we work on that plate literally practice all the time. and i still didn't practice and you're maybe joking around sometimes, but here we are. and it matters today. the number one, julian stopped their fans in the planet . no one's a bigger fan of him than me, man. alright, well, kansas state michigan state, also playing a thriller at madison square garden, and it was another legendary performance from the wildcats point guard markis noel, five ft eight harlem native. he scored 20 points to go along with an n c double a tournament record, 19 assists and no assists was bigger than this one to chianti johnson and overtime when he found him for the reverse slam. and take another look. noel was actually going back and forth with coach drunk tanks right before throwing that pass in the closing seconds. noel also came up big. he got a steal, and he took it the other way for a layup to basically put the game away. kansas state would win 98

93 to advance to the elite eight and here was tang. on his point guards performance after the game. snow was a place of fire, but we practice in a place of fire all the time. so he was ready for it. this bad boy right here. i love the intensity chianti. johnson led the wildcats with 22 points, and he continues to be just one of the best stories of the tournament. johnson collapsed in 2020 while playing for florida and was in a coma for three days. he was diagnosed with heart inflammation. and instead of taking a $5 million insurance payout and never playing basketball again transferred to kes you and now has them a win away from the final four. wildcats will face number nine c. florida atlantic in the elite eight. on saturday, the hours playing just their second tournament upset tennessee 62 55 last night, eh? you have never won a tournament game before this year. now they've won three d. their fans were excited. the
