4:03 pm
that's why covering this war matters and we will continue to do it, something supremely important to all of us is happening in ukraine and inside russia, where tonight putin's allies are turning on their own and telling those critical of putin's war to be quiet.>> all of these panicking alarmists can stick it where the sun don't shine, they should calm down once and for all. >> sure sometimes we make blunders, but who doesn't, how about we support our own and keep the criticism in your own kitchen. >> much more on the putin crackdown, nick robertson is on the ground in eastern ukraine, what is the latest happening there?>> reporter: there are gains being made around not just the town itself but the fields and open ground, the gains are a couple of hundred yards, a couple of football fields, but this is not fighting across clean cut

grass, this is across trenches, the russians are falling back into trenches, brown that is been fought over 70 times, there is just trench after trench, they are going as tough and hard, through some of the villages about 20 miles from the front line, life there is also hard and tough. >> reporter: 20 miles from the front line, a house you raised in this tiny village, it's fate sealed by random russian rocket a few days ago, luckily no one was in at the time. next-door, elena is salvaging what they can, also likely not at home. they had evacuated hundreds of miles away to kyiv last year, but nowhere is safe. they bomb us there too he says, the night before coming here we didn't sleep, six missiles were
4:05 pm
shot down, over us, they want to come back, the bang. both say yes. and adding i hope they're not coming here. all too often, a russian munitions often do, this house on the edge of the village, two weeks ago, the ferocity of the explosion. >> a piece of the drone that blew up the house, iranian made, fired by the russians. >> reporter: alina, a 52-year- old nurse, with a 16-year-old schoolgirl, both terribly burned, mother and daughter died. days later. in the hospital. natalia a close relative escape through a window. i am left alone, i buried everybody she says.
4:06 pm
her last memories of her in- laws cannot be unseen. i heard a thunderous explosion and then a firestorm, they were running on windows shattering glass flying, my feet were sticking to the floor because the floor was on fire. they couldn't save them she says. what she could save were the pets. the cats come running out, and she takes us back to the house. you can see the whiskers on the cat burned back. >> she is struggling with survivor's guilt. >> i spoke to my relative before i buried her daughter before she died contact natalia says, she was at the hospital, she told me it's not your fault, it's just random. i'm just happy she forgave me and her son for gave me, for my
4:07 pm
soul has called. she would love to go somewhere safer promised a relative should look after the pets, more days risking russia's ugly roux that. that's why the ukrainians want the f-16s and prisons linsky says it is a historic moment, president biden says he will support a coalition of nations giving ukrainian fighter pilots, training on them and find ways to get f-16s, several european nations, dutch and danish in the regions have f-16s, it seems like the planes will be coming to ukraine's aid, but they are not going to make a difference in the next few days or weeks or perhaps even month, but it is what the people we were talking to in this village would like to see coming over the horizon, to their rescue. >> a reminder of course of what war is all about. thank you from the ground in eastern ukraine. upfront, a russian journalist, founder and editor- in-chief of the investigative
4:08 pm
journalism site that is been targeted by the russian government, he left russia after facing the threat of a prison sentence, julia davis is a russian media analysis, creator of the russian media monitor and a columnist for the daily beast and she has been sanctioned by russia. i appreciate both of you so much and having you together. putin has stepped up targeting his enemies, and many people right, there are various lists out there, you could face a prison sentence but now i understand putin isn't stopping there, you broke the news that he may have poison more enemies that are not even in russia right now, they are outside of russia, your hearing there could be more to come? bigger yes. what we established just to start with, at least four cases , at least three of them happened in europe, of the presumable poisonings or break- ins into the apartment of let's
4:09 pm
say prominent critics of the putin regime. in view of the kremlin, they are all legitimate targets. so i really believe it is the beginning of a bigger story unfolding right now. it's the right moment for the kremlin to go for the people who are ready to flee the country, flee russia and to leak the secrets that they kept so far. >> they are very worried about them, you've returned to this as a elimination list essentially, and in fact, you may be on it? >> it looks reasonable. it looks reasonable. we have a lot of security protocols but we are not 100% safe traveling to europe, back and forth between the u.s. and europe, it's always a challenge
4:10 pm
and a threat, and of course it makes me nervous, and ask my family nervous, it makes my teammates nervous. >> that is the chilling effect, terrible and terrifying. and the sanctions that roman is mentioning, the names spanned the gamut, for president barack obama, late-night comic stephen colbert and jimmy kimmel are on it, what is the purpose of this for putin? is it specific to inside russia, the audience they are quick >> not only, the way we are watching them, they're watching what we do as well, but we have on the list is recognition that our opposition to putin's genocidal invasion of ukraine is considered significant enough to be noted and included on the list. so high praise indeed.
4:11 pm
of course it is also designed for domestic audience, makes it look like they are doing something even though it is largely symbolic and ivory much doubt if any of the people on the list were planning to travel to russia anyway. >> i'm going to get to the explosion, the blast, and russia occupied trench will cut it appears from the uk long- range missiles that missiles, president biden has said u.s. now supports training ukrainian pilots on 16 jets, a movement that they have steadfastly refused to do until now, even speaking to sources in the russian elite there, how is this news impacting putin quick >> what we know based on the talks with the sources in russia, they follow really closely all the news regarding the new weapons provided to
4:12 pm
ukraine, and all of it makes them absolutely crazy. that is the main topic they are interested in right now you know. we had a talk with one of our sources, and it took him an hour after the announcement, i don't remember if it was an announcement about the leopard tanks. yes. it took him like an hour to know everything about that, and he was like you know crazy. >> he was riled up about it. >> when you talk about how closely they are watching the coverage here, you've noticed a trend on russian state tv, putin propagandist telling critics inside russia, i'm not talking about macro critics of the war but critics of we need more weapons, that sort of thing, more specific criticism to be quiet, let me just play more from one of the clips i briefly
4:13 pm
played at the top of the show. >> reporter: when certain people who i do not criticize, i never criticize those who are fighting, when they say we need 80,000 shells per day, i want to say there's nothing wrong with dreaming, i also want them per day but it does not happen this way, understand? >> obviously julia that seems to be directed at the wagner chief, he's been asking for more shells and ammunition, a drumbeat, when you read between the lines and we are hearing more the sun russia state media, what you think is going on?>> what it sounds like is that their military industrial complex is not keeping up, they were not ready for this invasion or the way it was going to go, now they're telling their people that they likely will not have enough ammo and equipment until next year, so the situation is dire, and
4:14 pm
the videos are exposing that and they would like not only him but anyone who is criticizing it even with the best intentions just to be quiet, because there is nothing to do, to truly remedy the situation, they simply aren't prepared for the way the wars going. >> julia roman, thank you very much. the georgia da investigating trump efforts to layout the most specific timeline for a criminal indictment we have heard so far. telling judges to literally block off two weeks, what it might say about the charges . democrats slamming marjorie taylor greene after she went half of -- after jamal bowman on the capitol steps. >> shouting at the top of his lungs, cursing and calling me horrible names, pulling a white supremacist, it's like calling a person of color the letter and word. >> congressman bowman responds. a joke about dogs and a

tonight democrats accusing congresswoman marjorie taylor greene of being racist to say she feels threatened by congressman jamal bowman, who is black, corey bush tweeted that she doesn't feel safe around a black man is what a racist would say, madeleine dean, saying that the representative is using a racist trope to discredit black men. and call out for what it is, blatant racism. referring to these remarks by congresswoman greene. >> on the capitol steps yesterday he was the one that approached me, even cnn reported that, yelling and shouting and raising his voice, his physical mannerisms are aggressive, i think there's a lot of concern about jamal bowman, and i'm concerned about it, feeling threatened about it, i feel very concerned about but jamal bowman and somebody should watch. >> talking about the heated
4:28 pm
back and forth on the capitol steps with harassment bowman after he shouted at george santos to resign while he was speaking to reporters. here is the moment. >> the party has to kick him out.>> he is embarrassing you all. >> he's embarrassing me. >> saving the party. the party is hanging like a thread.>> saving america. save the children. do something about guns. investing in education. and what are we talking about that. >> what kids. >> we are accepting them, we love them, we love the migrant children. >> not very smart, you should pay attention. >> save the party. [ laughter ]>> congressman bowman is out upfront now,
4:29 pm
demanded that she apologize to say you are aggressive and felt threatened by you, i would assume it is safe to say that you had not received that apology? >> that is correct, i have not received that apology. >> she also said is not the first time that you have confronted her clash with her, she said you koester and carter white supremacist, attending doing protest outside a courthouse in new york, where donald trump was indicted, she came in your that time. let me just play what she said, so you can respond, here she is. and i will tell you, was on video, jamal bowman shouting at the top of his lungs, cursing and calling me a white supremacist, which i take great offense to. like calling a person of color the n word, which should never happen, calling me a white supremacist is equal to that, and that is wrong. >> what you say to that
4:30 pm
congressman? >> first of all, i never use any profanity towards her number 1, number 2, she spoke as a keynote >> at a keynote speaker at a white supremacist conference, that's why she was referred to in that manner, in addition to her taking a picture with an error 15 standing next to a picture of the squad, targeting members of the squad, mostly women of color, much of her rhetoric and vitriol and anti- muslim language, which is on the capitol steps was to colleagues laughing at each other as we shared differing ideas about what needs to be done in our democracy. for us to go from that to her the next morning, saying that my mannerisms are aggressive, and that she feels threatened by them, first of all she feels threatened by me, i will do everything in my power to stay away as far as possible from
4:31 pm
her, i don't want anyone else to feel threatened, but the racial trope that is and how it has lived in america, when every white woman says a black man is threatening of them, that black man becomes a target, and sometimes is killed, treatment martin, tamia rice, mike brown and many others. >> obviously we are watching this play out, we got more heated, you're talking exchanging with each other, it is surprising to have someone say what she said afterwards. so let me just now go to what your fellow democrat said, those words were, they say racist, do you agree with them, are you comfortable to come out and use those? >> of course. it is racist. absolutely. reckless, and dangerous. we have to teach american history accurately and make sure that it is part of the
4:32 pm
curriculum, hopefully through education, members like marjorie taylor greene and people like ron desantis will continue to attack black history and attack like people and use racist tropes, it's the same in other communities, it has to be education across culture so we can build bridges and open doors as opposed to things that continue to drive dush my divide us and lead to violence. that's what most of us are trying to do in washington. >> what happened prior to this, you had shouted at congressman santos to resign, he was talking to reporters and said he should read resign colony play that exchange. >> no i did not. allowed the process to play itself out. >> what you have to say to those members? >> if i could understand over
4:33 pm
my colleagues, with the reality of this. >> we have to go. >> how is your ethics play going. come on, i can't continue to address you guys, there is a deranged member, i'm not going to watch. >> when you look at that, do you have any regrets for doing that, for yelling at him in that way? >> no, now, cnn, you are tripping now, listen, first of all he should resign or be expelled because of the laws he is being accused of breaking, violations and lying to constituents, that is number 1, but number 2, is heckling a horrible evil thing, is teasing someone, friendly banter the horrible evil thing, everybody needs to lighten up and
4:34 pm
understand that one, and he healthy democracy, dialogue and debate is essential, number 1, number 2, why even frame a question that way, that feeds into that trope. >> no, i disagree, i think it's a fair question and here's why. dialogue and debate i hear you.>> yelling at him to resign was talking to reporters in terms of decorum and behavior is a different thing, which is fine if you think it's okay. >> so hold on a second, when we can't talk about the courtroom, he allegedly falsified campaign- finance documents and stole from people, all right, that is a despicable act, we should be outraged by that, when i was yelling at representative massey about guns killing children, we should be outraged by that. listen, raising my voice is a sign of passion and intensity,
4:35 pm
not a sign of anger or hate or rage or anything that should make anyone feel uncomfortable. the majority of support that i hear from my district, is people are excited that finally elected officials are expressing passion and discontent and rage for the things that aren't moving in washington, 1000 years, like gun control, that frustrates the american people, they want to see action and appreciate passion, we should all be passionate about things and be respectful and loving at the same thing. exactly who i am. >> i get it, i don't to keep belaboring the point but talking over someone heckling them when they're talking to reporters, it is not exactly respectful, you stand by it, i get it, i would take issue with it, i respect your point of view, and i appreciate you taking the time to talk to me. >> of course, it's good to be
4:36 pm
with you, good to have you. >> thank you and i enjoyed the conversation. the biden administration reportedly may halt plans to move space command from colorado to alabama, not connected to tommy tuberville's one man blockade of over 200 military nominees. >> reporter: tommy tuberville is digging in. >> i'm standing up for the rule of law. >> democrats are ratcheting up the alarms. >> this will get worse and worse, because temporary commands or extensions were reach the point were they can't do anymore. >> it is only grown in the last five months, more than 200 nominations at a standstill. over his refusal to drop his hold on the typically very routine process of approving military promotions in the senate, oliver his opposition to the pentagon's unrelated
4:37 pm
abortion policy. >> it is not about abortion procedures about taxpayer- funded abortion. >> reporter: the policy, which officially went into effect in february, has access and support for members choosing to get an abortion, providing travel expenses if there is stationed in states that anna restrict abortions and allowing paid need to do so. >> if democrats want me to drop my hold, the answer is simple, i have laid out to conditions, either follow the law, were change the law. >> vowing to keep it up until the pentagon overturns the policy on abortions. >> what the heck is happening in america. >> reporter: this has set off democrats. >> leader mcconnell cannot allow a member of the conference to make a mockery of the senate the way that senator turberville has done.
4:38 pm
>> reporter: and they are calling him irresponsible, and threaten national security. >> we will have over time i think a significant degradation and readiness, capability and morale. >> reporter: arguing the unprecedented move pits three and 4 star generals in limbo in critical areas like the pacific, the middle east and the military representative to nato as the war rages in ukraine. >> we don't want to begin losing people because we can't promote them. >> brings the military into a political argument. >> reporter: questions rising about the fate of the relocation of the space command headquarters from colorado to turberville state of alabama. >> i want to challenge president joe biden, come to huntsville, see with your own eyes why this is the best place for space command. >> reporter: amid reports that the coveted headquarters may no
4:39 pm
longer be moving to huntsville, alabama. >> do what's right for the country.>> new signs that he will back down to give consent for nominations to move forward, the majority leader schumer could bring up each of the 200 nominations to the floor individually for their own vote rather than en masse like it's typically done, that is a tight process that could take days or weeks of the senate's time. >> thank you. what is happening in china, a $2 million fine, it took about two dogs, what is what has they have they been subset. a utah mother that wrote a children's book, about her husband's before his murder, the lengths they went to hide money from each other.

tonight, china's extreme crackdown, a chinese comedian find $2 million for joe, telling a story about two stray dogs he adopted chasing a squirrel, other dogs you see would make you think they are adorable, these two dogs only reminded me of a fine style of work capable of winning battles. the punchline part was a
4:44 pm
communist party slogan, used by the president to describe the country's military. so a little bit of a stab there but that was the joke, and it was taken so seriously that police say he instilled to the military and could face prison time plus the fine, he goes on social media apologizing saying he will deeply reflect and reeducate myself, that was really what he said. they didn't stop there, yesterday chinese one was detained after she posted a common online, supporting the committee -- comedian. aren't they just dog brothers, a k-9 emoji for the word dog. ian bremmer, world renowned analyst, and host of g0 world on pbs, a great show. china has had a long place where you can insult military personnel, i said the joke now he's there saying he will reeducate himself, deeply reflect and reeducate himself. this is fascinating, why is it
4:45 pm
so sensitive, and xi xinping like don't feed the wild animals, if you feed them, they all wanted, if they show even a tiny bit of flexibility, that he was then suddenly anyone can tell a joke about the chinese military and the leader and in the authoritarian country were control of information is power and political stability, they won't tolerate that, of course you can read it out, you're sitting in new york but if you were an american ceo tweeting it out with exposure to the chinese economy, they might tell you what you take that down and apologize and i suspect you would take it down and apologize. >> we've seen that with nba yes. so you have ukrainian president zelensky going to japan, he's going to join president biden and other world leaders at the summit, which is significant,
4:46 pm
he did it recently, came to the united states, and go to the g7 in person, seems to very significant, it seems to have been a fairly last-minute decision such as we understand it to do so. what you think that means? >> traveling for a week shows a level of comfort that they have political stability in the country, the counteroffensive is in hand but also the recognition that a big part of the reason why he is in the position he is is because of the extraordinary level of support that he has managed to get from the g7. these are his biggest supporters internationally, and your announcing announcements from the g7 that f-16s are going to be supported. after 15 months of fighting, the gloves are completely off. >> that was the third rail redline for the u.s. >> and now the biden administration's perspective is
4:47 pm
