viewers joining us in the united states and all around the world. i'm bianca noble max foster joining you live from london just ahead on cnn newsroom. the president is planning and may go forward with the decision to launch his reelection campaign as soon as tuesday of next week. only question is, am i being charged with something? alec baldwin soon will no longer be accused after new mexico prosecutors plan to file a motion dismissing involuntary manslaughter charges against the actor. why did she shoot my daddy and me? he was running across his yard. he had his arm outstretched, and it was like pop pop. live from london. this is cnn newsroom. with max foster and bianca nobilo. it's friday, april, the 21st nine am here in
1:02 am
london for iem in washington, where an open secret will soon become official. us president joe biden is planning to seek a second term. his advisers say the campaign launch is expected to happen as early as next week, likely on tuesday, and that's when the big fundraising machine will kick into gear. biden is already the oldest person to serve as president and would be just weeks away. 82nd birthday. should he win reelection. cnn's phil mattingly reports from the white house. for months, president biden's top advisers have privately made clear he is going to run for re election in 2020 for what they wouldn't make clear what exactly he was going to announce that the president repeatedly saying he intended to run and ireland last week, saying that he'd made the decision and announcement would be forthcoming soon. but when it was very much something that people couldn't repeatedly figure out very small group of advisers in control of that timeline of that process of building a reelection campaign campaign officials now say, is likely to be announced next week
1:03 am
next week, marking the four year anniversary from when president biden launched his first campaign for presidency to defeat donald trump. he was successful in that endeavor, and in the years since he has based on the view of white house officials, based on the president's political advisors built a very real very substantive agenda. legislative accomplishments, accomplishments that are now being implemented. cross the country and that more than anything else. so they say the president is going to be focusing on in the months ahead. the model is kind of out in the open, the president has been making very clear those priorities. these accomplishments and also a very clear contrast between republicans that he knows he will certainly be running against whether or not that's donald trump or somebody else. advisors don't necessarily want to weigh in, but they feel confident that based on that agenda, and based on those contrasts, they have a winning formula. but it's a formula that will certainly take developing over time. and they also underscore when you talk to white house officials and the president's political team that this will be a year of building building up on their campaign.
1:04 am
whether or not that's the president's travel, how they try and focus things but also building behind the scenes. the infrastructure of the campaign has largely been put together behind the scenes over the course of the last couple of months, but they will spend 2023 testing digital strategies, testing data strategies, testing voter messages and watching the republican primary play out. that last point is a critical one because it was one of the drivers behind the president's decision to wait until next week to launch that campaign. recognizing that there's no real pressure on the democratic side from any potential primary opponent, there's a recognition that the president was likely to run again. and certainly there was plenty of fighting that they were happy to watch from the sidelines on the republican side of things, but now the president ready to engage major donors are expected in washington at the end of next week to meet with the president's senior team. this is all building towards what people knew it was coming. i just didn't know when. the wind appears. to be next week. phil mattingly, cnn. the white house. keep in mind now, if you didn't already know it that the
1:05 am
election is still more than a year and a half away earlier, biden biographer evan osnos explained how the decision on when to announce the new campaign unfolded. well they've been working on it quietly behind the scenes for a long time. some of the people that the president trusts most. this has been a pretty major sideline for them. you know, this doesn't come obviously as a shock he's been saying, signaling in every possible way that he intended to run. and what you saw was him taking his time with it. partly that's his nature. you know he doesn't rush into decisions. but there was also an element going on here that this adviser said there is no reason for us to race out of the gates here because, after all, he was sort of in the office of the presidency. you get a pretty big dividend. getting as much attention as you want. meanwhile, on the other side of the aisle he's watching the beginning of a pretty tough primary fight for the gop. he's sort of letting that play out, letting that occupy a better the a bit of the headlines. meanwhile, donald trump, of course, is in legal trouble of a whole range of types.
1:06 am
ron desantis is having some political challenges that people wouldn't have anticipated a few weeks ago. so you know if you're joe biden, you're traveling the world. you're in washington working on legislative issues. there was no reason to rush this from his perspective. the u. s. supreme court is expected to decide in the coming hours whether to take up the case of the abortion drug method. kristen ought to uphold a lower court ruling, which place restrictions on the drug and rolled back the food and drug administration's approval, which was granted more than 20 years ago. kristen is used in a majority of medical abortions in states that still provide access. in the us it's approved in more than 90 countries worldwide, but with last year's supreme court ruling that overturned roe versus wade and now with the abortion drug on the chopping block, the united states seems out of step with the rest of the world on this issue. nearly 30. million people are under threat of severe storms, even as the threat diminishes and moves east today , severe thunderstorm watches are still up across parts of
1:07 am
texas and louisiana, and flash flood warnings are up in parts of texas. flooding around austin prompted a number of water rescues thursday night. flights bound for austin were halted for a time because of these severe storms, too. there were more than 120 storm reports stretching from texas to michigan. most of those reports were of hail and high winds. one tornado was reported in tyler, texas. we'll give you a close eye on the situation in sudan, where the paramilitary rapid support forces has announced a 72 hour pause in fighting to current side with the holiday. sudan's army chief released a video statement a few hours ago but didn't mention the temperatures to previous ceasefires have collapsed within hours and done little to stop the clashes. between rival military factions. the world health organization reports more than 330 people have been killed . many residents of the capital khartoum, have been stuck in their homes for days without basics like electricity, medicine and food and water.
1:08 am
also running low. larry maduro in nairobi, kenya, so one side calling for a ceasefire, but we haven't heard from the other side yet. that's right. max bianca, the rapid support forces , this powerful paramilitary group that's involved in this power struggle with the sudanese military. they say they are committed to a 72 hour ceasefire . that's over the next three days. we should have started at six am local in sudan, but the leader of the sudanese armed forces general abdel fattah, al goran, did given aid message. to the country where he made no mention of this cease fire. the un called for that three day ceasefire after a meeting yesterday called by the african union that was included the secretary general of the arab league, as well as other countries, including the us and the uk. after that same meeting, the african union said there should be at least a one week ceasefire to allow people to celebrate the important muslim holiday of eid that max the end of the holy month of ramadan. but so far the army is not committing into it. i want to show you a bit of this message
1:09 am
from general calderon um, are was water, the ruin and destruction in the sound of gunfire have not allowed a space for the joy that our people across our beloved country deserve, and we are deeply saddened by this. however there remains hope that we are with our great people, and we will overcome this tribulation. this is the first time we've seen general al gore hand on camera and the fact that he's speaking on camera people would have expected for him to be conciliatory, or at least to commit to this. ceasefire on religious grounds, which just does not appear to be happening, max and larry. we're hearing reports that the pentagon is preparing evacuations from sudan , but what considerations are at play here in terms of the danger of trying to plan something like that? so bianca. this is being described as a contingency planning the us department of defense through the africa command says it is monitoring the situation in sudan, and it
1:10 am
is deploying what they're calling additional capabilities nearby in djibouti, djibouti is a tiny nation that's stable, in other words, volatile neighborhood and the u. s. has its largest permanent military base. there's camp alimony. and this plan a u. s. d o d official telling cnn would include about hundreds of marines that are capped a stationed at camp lemonnier as well as aircraft that have the ability to bring in on the ground units that can secure the embassy and if necessary, they can evacuate staff from there. obviously the problem here is that the airport itself is still being contested . some of it has been damaged. there's been a fierce fighting for the past almost a week, actually, since this began and has not been possible to fly in or out of that airport, except for a tiny window, the egyptians were able to carry out evacuations of their soldiers that were in sudan remains a really dangerous situation if they were to attempt this, but that's an option that's being considered at this time. okay larry. thank you for bringing us the latest from nairobi. ukraine
1:11 am
is making a new push to do one of the things that russia tried to prevent with this invasion to join nato secretary general paid a visit to kiev on thursday and met with president vladimir zelensky, who made a new pitch for joining nato, which could put it on a path. to a military conflict with moscow. the leader didn't offer any timelines to keep, but did say this ukraine's future is in the eure atlantic family. ukraine's future is in nato. moscow responded to stoltenberg's visit, saying that keeping ukraine out of remains one of its military goals now ukraine's allies are meeting in germany to consider next steps in their assistance to cave us. defense secretary lloyd austin just spoke ahead of the meeting of the ukraine defense contact group. it's happening at the ramstein air base with defense ministers and other officials from more than 50 countries taking part and this all comes as we're getting word of a new
1:12 am
russian drone strike on ukraine's capital, claire. sebastian is covering this for us this morning, claire. what is the lansky hoping will be achieved at this meeting about ukraine? so the ram stone contact group meeting. this is all about coordinating and organizing new weapons supplies , essentially if ukraine and i think his top priority right now is defense. we know certainly, and this is sort of uncomfortable context to the meeting for the u. s but we know from those leaked pentagon documents. the belief is that while ukraine might have, you know a slight edge when it comes to ground forces because of the new weapons that has been getting from the nato allies, the vulnerability is with air defense. we've seen that just now, overnight with those attacks the drone attacks on the capital for the first time, according to the head of the military administration in kiev , the first time in 25 days, but it is the second such overnight barrage of drones this week that continues to be a part of the playbook. they are pushing for more air defense, and i think the second thing coming off that nato meeting in kiev with the
1:13 am
nato secretary general, who by the way has just arrived at ramstein is security guarantees ahead of that summit. in vilnius, take a listen to what you in. stoltenberg had to say just a few moments ago. president zelensky and i also discussed the preparations for the upcoming nato summit in the business in july. i have invited him to attend the meeting, and i'm glad that he has accepted the invitation and will attend the summit in all made dollars have agreed that ukraine will become a nato member. president zelensky attending the nato summit in vilnius in lithuania in july will certainly be very unwelcome optics for moscow, the nato secretary general, also saying he expects more weapons pledges this week. but he said that some of the focus will be on what he called the more boring stuff right, so sustaining the existing weapons platforms. they already have fuel ammunition maintenance past all of that stuff to keep the things they've already got going
1:14 am
on the battlefield class. sebastian, thank you so much. somehow a cargo container packed with gold has gone missing from canada's busiest airport. police say it was unloaded from a plane and taken to a holding facility at the toronto airport on monday . oh monday where disappeared. the whole is estimated at more than 15 $billion million. getting ahead of myself, investigators wouldn't say who owned the container which airline transported it or whether security cameras recorded. the height really know much do they? no, they don't. but it's got all the hallmarks of a blockbuster netflix documentary series coming to your screen scene coming up. also big news for actor alec baldwin why prosecutors dropped charges against him in connection to the fatal shooting on set for his film rust, a six year old from north carolina victim escalating us gun violence we've got that story for you and latest our my pillow ceo michael lyndal ordered to pay $5 million just cybersecurity expert will have reaction from a trump allied election denier. purple impact

weekend in the town of david ville. authorities say i'm named 15 year old, an unnamed 15 year old has been formally charged with four counts of reckless murder. altogether six people, including four teenagers, have been arrested and charged with murder in connection with this deadly shooting. at least 32 other people were injured in the attack, at least 15 of them teenagers who suffered gunshot wounds. the district attorney says more charges are likely to be filed in that case, senate democrats are raiding against supreme court justice clarence thomas over possible ethics violations. the trouble started when it was revealed that justice thomas failed to disclose luxury travel gifts and a real estate transaction involving a republican mega donor. now senate judiciary chairman dick durbin plans to hold a hearing on the matter in the coming weeks. he's already called on chief justice john roberts or another justice of his choosing to offer testimony about the state of ethics in the high court. but despite the outcome of an investigation is unlikely, justice thomas would
1:22 am
face any real punishment. a legal expert explains. why. there is a judicial code of conduct. it applies to every other federal judge in the united states, except for the justices on the supreme court. under that code of conduct ahead , justice thomas accepted the gifts that he did from from harlan crow. it would have been a violation of the code of conduct. the problem is that that code doesn't apply to the justices, and there's no mechanism to enforce it against them. and this is something that that that that the justices could voluntarily adopt, but have chosen not to. a legal victory for actor alec baldwin. prosecutors in new mexico say they're dropping charges against him in connection with the deadly shooting on the set of the movie rust temporary dismissal pending further investigation, but one that baldwin welcome cnn's chloe melas has the details. so my only question is, am i being charged with something? baldwin soon will no longer be accused after new mexico prosecutors
1:23 am
plan to file a motion dismissing involuntary manslaughter charges against the actor called quote temporary pending further investigation. baldwin reacted on instagram, posting a photo of his wife saying, quote i owe everything i have to this woman into you, luke, his attorney, you were in the room when the lady wants someone was holding the gun. yeah. baldwin admitted to holding the gun. that fired a bullet killing helena hutchins, the cinematographer on baldwin's film rust, but told police he did not know he was handed a loaded gun. baldwin resumes filming on rust this week with production moved to montana. this was baldwin last year. someone is responsible. for what happened and i can't say who that is, but i know it's not me. the dismissal is a win for baldwin's legal team, which challenged the motives and politics of one of the original prosecutors. it doesn't matter if he's a liberal democrat, and i'm a conservative republican. my job has always been to prosecute crimes. in february,
1:24 am
baldwin's lawyers filed a motion to remove special prosecutor andrea riebe, who at the time of the investigation, was running for state representative in new mexico. male later revealed in the new york times, reeves suggested being involved in the case. quote might help in my campaign both read and the district attorney who hired her ultimately recused themselves. their replacements dropped the charges against baldwin, his attorneys saying they quote encourage a proper investigation into the facts and circumstances of this tragic accident. is there live animal that's kept on set? no. never films. weapons handler, hannah gutierrez reed is now the sole defendant in the case. 18 months for involuntary manslaughter. her attorney says she will plead not guilty and that gutierrez read quote has been emotional about the tragedy but has committed no crime. are we really supposed to feel bad about you, mr baldwin, helena hutchins husband has been a vocal critic of baldwin, saying
1:25 am
he should face charges. the idea that the person holding the gun . causing it to discharge is not responsible is absurd to me. but now justice for helena hutchins moves forward without a star defendant and she was great at her job and she died and she died and that's that hurts me. every day, prosecutors released a lengthier statement thursday evening, revealing that this move to dismiss the charges is only temporary, pending a further investigation. so cnn has reached out to alec baldwin's legal team for further comment. the attorney for hannah guterres, read the armor on rust has spoken out, saying in a statement to cnn that they believe that she, too, will have her charges. dismissed and be fully exonerated. now a preliminary hearing is set for may. 3rd in the trial is expected to begin this summer, and we will just have to see what the d a ultimately decides back to you. now everything started off okay for the inaugural test flight of spacex's massive super heavy rocket and starship spacecraft.
1:26 am
most powerful rocket ever built successfully took off from a launch pad in south texas on thursday. but then everything. after clearing the tower was icing on the cake. about four minutes into the flight. several engines fizzled out, the starship tumbled and exploded, or as spacex creatively called it a rapid, unscheduled disassembly. the company still called it a success because they learned a lot and they're planning another test in a few months. most accidents are on launch on tests, so just being able to get such a heavy rocket in space at all is impressive just to explain why we're looking at these two guys still ahead. the u. s house speaker lays out his plan to cut spending and raise the debt

1:34 am
should be talking. and what is your fear? if there are these talks don't happen. well, my fear is that this gets pushed all the way to the last moment. and then if we're at the last moment and things fall apart, we go off. we go off the cliff for the first time in default, which would be absolutely catastrophic. but despite the pressure among some democrats like that, congressman moskowitz right there the democratic leaders are still holding firm, including chuck schumer, the senate majority leader, who told me this afternoon that even if house republicans passed their bill next week, they will not change their posture going forward and that any bill, he said. that must be ultimately enacted must be clean, meaning no conditions whatsoever. so we are headed into a critical moment here a few weeks potentially a couple of months until the country could face its first ever u. s debt default and still the two sides. hi stakes game of chicken with the with the u. s economy and the potential of the world economy hanging in the balance. raju, cnn, capitol hill. just days
