2020. a third straight night of intense russian strikes on ukraine's southern port of odesa, this as ukraine prepares to receive another billion dollar aid package from the u.s. more questions swirling around the mysterious case of an alabama woman who went missing and reappeared two days later. why people are talking about her internet searches she did just before she disappeared. this is cnn "news central." as soon as today, a federal grand jury in d.c. could hand down another indictment against former president donald trump. any moment now that grand jury is expected to meet once again. and all of this is surrounding his alleged efforts to overturn the 2020 election result. today is also something of a deadline day for trump and his
6:02 am
legal team. after getting the target letter from the special counsel he has the chance to make his case before the grand jury but that's seen as highly unlikely to happen. someone who is expected before the grand jury today. two sources tell cnn that will russell, a special assistant to donald trump will testify today. he's already been before the grand jury in this investigation at least twice. cnn learned in the face of the growing threat, trump is expanding his legal team adding john laurel to work alongside todd blanch. katelyn polantz has the latest for us. you're outside the courthouse in d.c. what is happening now? >> the grand jury has assembled as far as we can tell into the secret hearing room where they continue to gather testimony and evidence as they look at the potential indictment of donald
6:03 am
trump. the third potential indictment against trump if it is approved by this grand jury and brought through the justice department into the court system. but it will be a significant one, when it is approved if it is approved. because this investigation is so sweeping, kate. this investigation has spoken to or had information brought into it from all over the country. from the seven different battleground states where there were state officials that spoke to investigators about what they experienced from the trump campaign in their administration of elections. phone calls they received from donald trump himself. there's also been quite a bit of evidence coming out of the white house. and from vice president mike pence. who was serving under trump at that time and was receiving the pressure to overturn the results of the election. white house chief of staff mark meadows testified. many others have been seen by the grand jury or at least provided information that they likely are looking at for that
6:04 am
indictment. today we expect at least one witness to wrap things up. we don't know when things will be wrapped up but the witness we're expecting is will russell a personal aide to donald trump and someone who worked with him on an advanced team setting up events and things like that. we don't know what will russelle will be talking about but this is the third time he'll be providing information to this investigation and grand jury. and likely he would be one of the final things that the grand jury would like to hear before they look at the charges that the justice department -- that we believe the justice department is preparing at this time since they have given donald trump that target letter outlining exactly what they believe they could be charging him with and telling him he's very likely to be arrested and charged here in this federal court in washington d.c. but a long day ahead of us. there's one prosecutor we know
6:05 am
of who's here on the premises already working with the grand jury. it will be behind closed doors. but we are waiting now and watching exactly for what the justice department might do next and if donald trump himself will come in to testify. that too is pretty unlikely, kate. but there are a couple things that could still happen today but we're waiting for that indictment. >> thank you so much. there is a lot of action that could be happening where you are this morning. so we'll still close. caitlyn lays out the questions of the dominos thagd fall today we'll see. >> a lot happening over the next few hours, days for sure. and trump's team is hunkering down and making calls to find out if special counsel jack smith has other evidence or witnesses they may not know about. the concerns stem from the potential list of charges in the letter that trump received. and it's a fear it'll be a bigger case against trump than
6:06 am
the team was expecting. elena, what more are we learning about who team trump could be calling? >> reporter: good morning, rahel. they are calling a lot of donald trump's allies and lawyers and trying to get a better understanding of what exactly a potential criminal case against him would look like. now they have a couple questions. one is, did anyone else receive a target letter. they want to know is donald trump the main focus of this case or are there others involved that the special counsel is looking at? they're also trying to get a better sense of the evidence that jack smith has against him, as well as if any other members of trump's inner circle are cooperating with special counsel. now the charges laid out in the target letter trump received sunday night are more sprawling than anticipated. so they're trying to get a sense of what does the case look like and what do we need to be
6:07 am
prepared for? many of the witnesses that have come before the grand jury are people represented by many of donald trump's legal team or are paid for by trump world. so that is something they're watching closely. and it also gives them a lot of insight potentially into what they're being asked. >> potentially incredible incite. you have new reporting of trump's schedule. what more are you learning about that? >> reporter: well, donald trump is keeping it business as usual despite receiving that target letter and anticipating a potential indictment could come as soon as today or tomorrow. he hosted, last night at his bedminster golf club, a screening for the movie "sound of freedom". and many of donald trump's close advisers and fiercest allies were with him at his club last night. i spoke with steve bannon. he told me that he attended that screening. i think this shows that he is keeping up his campaign
6:08 am
schedule. we saw him still attend that campaign stop in iowa on tuesday. he also carried forward with his town hall with fox news' sean hannity and so he is not slowing down his schedule despite receiving that letter and expecting a potential indictment to come soon. >> thank you. joining us now, cnn senior legal analyst and former federal prosecutor elie honing and political commentator ana nav navarro. trump lawyers and advisors are on a search to figure out what evidence and witnesses might be out there or the special counsel has pulled in that they're unaware. i'm sure every defendant would like to know the case against them before they're charged but what does this indicate to you? >> it is normal, first of all, for somebody who is a defendant or received a target letter or who might to hire a team of
6:09 am
attorneys and try to track the government's investigation as it goes. it's not illegal or improper to call somebody up and say have you been asked to go to the grand jury? you can ask them, what did they ask you? what did you say as soon as you're not tampering with the witness. i'm surprised it's taken donald trump this long to mobilize his legal team. a savvy, well-resourced person would have done this two years ago when it became clear he was going to be the object of multiple criminal investigations. and now they're sort of scrambling and still short staffed and that could hurt donald trump's prospects. >> the fact that they were surprised by this coming at them. the investigation has been going on so long. we know that trump's team, if you will, is paying the legal fees, the legal bills for many of the witnesses, at least that they're aware. what do you see here? >> exactly like elie, i cannot believe that practice has not made perfect for donald trump at this point. this was a person under two
6:10 am
indictments, 71 counts, also dealing with carroll trial at the same time, had the legal issues while he was president. how could he possibly not have had the best team on retainer constantly. what did he think jack smith was doing all these months? what did he think all of these witnesses going in to testify was about? you think they were sharing recipes? no. they were building a case. so it is really befuddling to hear that this team is surprised that donald trump is surprised and that they were not ready for this. >> surprised if the they are, now they have more information to move ahead with. until -- you know, if and until they -- an indictment comes down. i want to dig deeper in what we heard in the target letter. you've been interested in this as well, elie. one related to one of the statutes, section 41 of title 18
6:11 am
of the u.s. code which we're learning about and you know about, if two me persons conspire to injury, threaten, any person in the free exercise of or enjoyment of any right or privilege secured to him by the united states, this surprised some folks this inclusion in the target letter. why? >> let me boil that. >> please do. >> it's a crime to interfere with somebody's constitutional rights. that's what the statute means. it could be the right for people to cast their votes and have those votes counted. i think when we look at the charges weer learning about potentially through the target letter. it tells me jack smith is looking at in the broad view and the focus of the indictment is going to be the days and weeks leading up to january 6th not the ellipse and the attack on the capital itself but the
6:12 am
effort to steal the election through fraud, pressure, and coe coercion. >> in this it talks about -- obviously the target letter gets to conspiracy. >> yeah. >> i'm not trying to be facetious or dumb here. but to have a conspiracy, do you need two people? can you conspire with yourself? if he's indicted on a conspiracy charge, does someone have to be charged? >> you do need two people. it does not necessarily mean a second person will be charged with donald trump. you can charge them separately. or even at all. sometimes you have a situation where you have two co-conspirators you think it's worth it to charge me, but not my co-conspirator -- sorry, ana you're next to me. >> anna has conspired on many a fun thing i'll say that. >> if you don't think the proof is strong enough to charge person two, if the person worked
6:13 am
out a deal, those are the two common scenarios. >> this would be the third indictment of donald trump and in the face of this, you listed, practice should make perfect. but he has remained a front runner. the head of the republican party. throughout all of this. does he remain, in your view, anna, the front runner in spite of or because of the growing charges he has faced? if. >> i think both. listen, i am no trump fan, everybody knows that that. but i think it's impressive that he's dealing with three legal cases ongoing, about to be a fourth. and at the same time a mammoth presidential campaign and leading by 20 points. there's a few things that donald trump does very well, playing the victim is one of them. and he is going to milk this for all it's worth, he's fund-raising out of it, casting himself as i am taking the blows for you, this is happening to me because i am the sacrificial
6:14 am
lamb for you. it's like a christ-like description of himself that he goes into on the campaign trail. and there are no better alternatives for republicans are conservatives, right. ron desantis who everyone thought was going to be the hero and successor has turned out to be a dud who -- >> i wanted to get your take on what you thought of the reaction from the other republican candidates. it's a bit of a mixed reaction i think is the broad way i could say, but definitely not anyone coming out to say, we can -- i can use this to take him out this time. if an indictment comes, does that change? do you think that changes anything if the indictment comes? if they don't take the leap to say, this means he can't be president -- >> it's not going to change anything. literally you can replay what they said after the first indictment, after the second indictment and just put it on a
6:15 am
loop. really the only person taking him on -- >> one counter point, wouldn't an indictment on this be different? it's about trying to overthrow a peaceful transition of power. >> of course. >> it's not the other charges he's facing. >> it's not hush money to stormy daniels. but nothing is going to change. we saw this in 2016, they are not willing to do anything that might antagonize a trump supporter so they are trying to walk this fine line, on one hand responding to the indictment but on the other hand god forbid i might say anything that might come across as offensive. with the exception of, honorable exception, asa hutchinson and chris christie. chris christie has nothing to do, both of them come from law enforcement backgrounds and that's a big part of it. more disappointing about ron desantis -- >> he's jag. >> he's jag. he's a lawyer, comes from this
6:16 am

ruins. our cnn team on the ground captured some of the strikes that happened in the dark of night. you can see them lighting up the night sky. the flashes part of the 38 air strikes, air attacks that the ukrainian air force counted and ukraine said they were able to intercept and take out 18 of them. russia attacks also rained down on mick lieia. alex marquardt is on the ground in odesa with a look at the damage. >> reporter: this city has never seen anything like this since the beginning of the war. i can't overstate the terror the citizens have over the last three nights. i want to show you some of the destruction from last night. this is an administrative building. it looks like it was around four stories high. you can see it has completely collapsed.
6:22 am
we are told this is still a search and rescue operation. we know at least one young man was killed. there were several people injured. you can see the firefighters trying to put out the fires in this building, both from among the rubble and up on the ladder up there. there are firefighters, rescue workers, there are volunteers and residents of this neighborhood who are just trying to make sense of what we experienced last night. we are on the edge of the port. the biggest port in ukraine, which we can't show you for security reasons. but that is almost certainly why, according to ukrainian authorities russia has been carrying out these strikes on ukraine. this attack started just before 2:00 a.m. local time. it was a combination of drones and missiles. we could hear the drones clearly buzzing the roof tops in downtown odesa. i want to play you some of the -- sorry we're going to get out of the way of this water.
6:23 am
i want to play you some of the video shot of one of the explosions in odesa here last night. take a listen. >> that is the kind of thing we heard for an hour and a half. it was not just odesa hit. it was also mykoliyav. this was a sophisticated attack. almost 40 drones and missiles. most of the missiles got through. russia used long-range super sonic bombers, four cruise missiles, the iranian ckamikaze drones. just the symbol of what they used sends a message to ukraine. president zelenskyy has said it's russia trying to target the
6:24 am
grain infrastructure after pulling out of the critical grain deal. >> alex marquardt in odesa, ukraine for us this morning. and this morning the belarussian troops said they're learning with wagner fighters. imcots after the president invited wagner forces into his country to train his military and that was following a failed coup by yevgeny prigozhin. i want to talk about alex's piece and odesa in a moment but i want to talk about that we're learning that belarusian forces are training with wagner forces. what are you making of that?
6:25 am
>> the issues is that it's happening on the polish border, the border of nato. and the fact that it's happening in a city that has a lot of history when it comes to conflicts in that region, it really shows that the wagner group and the belarusian army are getting together to try to figure out a way to try to improve the belarusian forces and in essence make them more brutal as they learn tactics and techniques from the wagner group. that should be a great concern maybe not in the next week or so, but certainly the future when it comes to belarusian capabilities. that's something we need to pay attention to. >> wagner's brutality well documented. is it clear based on this video, what the status of wagner is? we got some video that appears to show yevgeny prigozhin for the first time. how do you read this? what is the status of this group?
6:26 am
>> i would almost characterize it as being alive and well. there was this big, you know, trumpeting of the demise of wagner group and you saw the signs being removed from their headquarters in st. petersburg. but i think it's cosmetics. the wagner group still exists and prigozhin is still in charge of it. i think they're in essence refocussing their efforts in a more internal direction temporarily but i expect them to be back in ukraine shortly. right now they say they're out of ukraine but the key thing to remember is they could return to ukraine at almost any time but right now they're busy training the belarusian forces and they have activities in africa and other places around the world. >> flrp a lot of questions what it would mean for operations in a af africa. the results of the attacks last night are due to weapons
6:27 am
traveling long distances. ukraine has been pleading for better air defense systems. what do they need most at this point? >> one of the key things they need is what amounts to point-to-point defenses. and what that means is they need a bigger umbrella to cover places like odesa. the air defenses have focused on mainly on kyiv and then kharkiv, the second city in the north. but they need to protect odesa because the russian goal has been from the beginningov t-- beginning of this phase of the conflict has been to cut ukraine off from the black sea. and so they need systems that would allow them to do a better job of shooting down the missiles. alex in his report mentioned some of the limitations that they had and the fact they really didn't shoot down all of the missiles.
6:28 am
there were 38 that were thrown at odesa. they got 18, i believe it was. so that shows they have to have a better track record. once there's a more concentrated air defense system, the track record goes up and in some cases you're able to achieve a track record of shooting down almost 100% of incoming missiles. that's what they need for odesa to protect that infrastructure. >> how much will this newest aid package help with what you just outlined there? >> it will help because there are munitions for the patriots system that are coming in as part of the aid package. that's one aspect and there will be four hr systems coming in as part of the aid package. so as a result of that, ukraine should be better able to protect some of the other critical assets such as the port of odesa
6:29 am
and that will then allow them to fend off the attacks and limit damage to that critical port infrastructure. >> colonel cedric leighton, thanks for being with us today. coming up, controversy on capitol hill not having to do with what the hearing is about, but who republicans have decided to call as their key witness. and the justice department is now stepping in. troubling reports about the treatment of migrants at the u.s.-mexico boarder. an allegation that texas troopers were told to push migrants back into the rio grand and also deny them water i in t scorching heat. we'll be right bacack. my frequent heartburn had me taking a antacid after antacid all day long but with prilosec otc just one pill a day blocks heartrn for a full 24 hours. for one and done heartburn relief, prilosec otc.

cen central". a federal grand jury has convened this morning in d.c. and could deliver an indictment as soon as today against former president donald trump. the case is on his role to overturn the 2020 election. the jury is expected to hear more witnesses and it's possible the former president could take the stand although that is highly unlikely. today is the last day his lawyers could present their own witnesses or evidence in his defense. and happening now, a hearing over concerns on social media. it's more than that because republicans are delving into what they see as the government's role as silencing conservative speech online. and their witness is the long-shot democratic presidential candidate robert kennedy jr.
6:35 am
this is the look getting hearing under way. this week he was rebuked by his own family for saying covid-19 was ethnically targeted to spare jews. what's happening here? >> reporter: they are just beginning their opening arguments but this is a broader debate in congress about the freedom of speech according to republicans. they say this is not a hearing about the substance of what rfk has said in the past but about whether or not the government should be censoring speech. you heard from democrats this week urging them to try to get a way forward for this hearing not to happen or at least for rfk not to testify before this weaponization committee arguing that he was really disqualified given the fact that he said those comments over the weekend. also given the fact that he's repeatedly come up with false lies about the pandemic, as well
6:36 am
as vaccines. meanwhile you had the house speaker defending the hearing happening today saying again he does not belief that people should be censored. what's happening inside the hearing room is the ranking member and the chairman of the subcommittee have given their opening remarks. you can expect jim jordan fiercing defending the hearing today. rfk is now testifying, giving his opening remarks but expect more fireworks over the hours as the hearing progresses. >> looks like fireworks may be starting and we may need fact checking afterwards. when you have the star witness being rfk jr. it raises more questions about what they're going to get to. thank you so much, lauren. this morning the justice department said it is assessing

the treatment of migrants along the u.s./mexico border amid troubling reports elspecifically claims that troopers have been ordered to deny water to migrants despite the heat and push them back into the waters of the rio grand towards mexico. a spokesperson said if the claims are true, the treatment is cruel and inhumane. per -- priscilla alvarez broke this story. what are you learning? >> it is the first public acknowledgement by the department of justice that they are assessing the situation on the texas/mexico border which is a concern to this administration. i was told by sources there were discussions for months about what actions, if any, could be taken, those actions taken between the department of homeland security and the justice department as they watched what was unfolding in texas with greg abbott sending

6:45 am
