"cnn this morning" continues right now. good morning, everyone. get started with five things to know for this thursday august 17th, just in to cnn, now circulating in far right internet, pictures, social media profiles and home addresses that

seem to belong to members of the georgia grand jury that voted to indict donald trump after a texas woman arrested for threatening the judge in the federal election subversion case. also, the hawaii wildfires now claimed lives of 111 people including children. we know there are still more than 1,000 people missing and only 38% of the disaster zone has been searched. also this morning, news more young people are being diagnosed with cancer according to a new study. the rising rate predemoominantl driven by women in their 30s. and predicting collapse of the housing market 2008 now bet more than $1.6 billion on a wall street crash and using more than 90% of his portfolio to make that bet on a market downturn. and yes still talking about "barbie," third week in the box office still shattering records. "barbie" is warner brothers highest grossing domestic release ever. even though some countries are

banning the movie. tell you all about it. "cnn this morning" starts right now. have you seen it yet, "barbie"? >> a little busy last couple week weeks. i know. went this weekend. people love it. >> people got mad thought i was anti-"barbie." i'm not. stuff going on leading up to this week. >> you're going to love it, blew me away. apparently a lot of people. >> now i have to go to "barbie." >> yes. that in a moment. now to serious and disturbing news. new details. a texas woman charged with threatening to kill the federal judge who's overseeing former president donald trump's federal election interference case. according to a criminal complaint she consulted the chambers of judge tanya chutkan august 5th leaving a voicemail

message threatening to "kill anyone who went after former president trump." reportedly said if trump doesn't get elected in 2024 we are coming to kill you so tread lightly and then an expletive. you are in our sigthts we want o kill you. >> also a direct threat to kill congresswoman lee, all people in the lgbtq community. she admitted to homeland security special agents she made the call to judge chutkan's chambers but had no plans to carry out anything stated. she's held in detention pending trial. also just in to cnn, photos, social media profiles even home addresses reportedly belonging to members of the fulton grand jury in georgia circulating ob websites this days after the indictment of former president trump and 18 co-defendants. straight to donian o' -- donie

o'sullivan. what are you learning? >> reporter: someone indicted in fulton county, georgia, the names of the people who sit on that grand jury are included in the indictment. so there's a lot of people that these names and the indictment the other day, thought that it mistakenly been posted. that isn't actually the case. this is protocol in fulton county. but, look what we've seen online disturbingly in the past 48 hours or so is some people essentially describing this list, the list of grand jurors as quote/unquote hit list and we've seen people trying to, docs, people on the grand jury, posting what purports to the grand jurors social media profiles, pictures, home addresses. all, of course, kind of in the context to suggest that there should be retribution for these citizens doing their job

essentially. what we can say also is that it's not clear to us if all of the social media pages and the purported addresses even the images are actually all of the grand jurors, or if they're simply just people who share, happen to share the same name as some of those jurors. either way, experts we have spoken to said even if posting the wrong details of people posted online, that also creating risks for those people as well. look, you know, there's a bit of chatter about this. you know, from what we can see on a lot of these kind of far right extremist forums and a lot of times it is just that. it is just chatter. but, look. it's also showing up in places where some of these forums have been linked to shootings and violent attacks in the past. some platforms even use in the

planning up to the january 6th attack on the u.s. capitol. there is potential reharms for this, of course, a lot of harassment as a result of this, but something we are monitoring closely. >> i think, look -- it's on page 9 of the indictment. they list all grand jurors. when i saw that i was surprised. because in a lot of proceedings people will probably be wondering, well, jurors names aren't out there in normal proceedings. there's a law in georgia, donie, that they have for transparency reasons, that says the name of the grand jurors, by the way don't get to choose if they'll be doing this or not, are out there. that's concerning to some of them, for reasons like this. >> exactly. look, i mean, transparency is one thing, but obviously, in this environment, particularly in the world we live in today a really charged political violent rhetoric online. this is a very scary situation. i've seen some of these posts. essentially what you have, and

in very, very dark corners of the internet. again, kind of on forums, mass shooters. people who have gone on to take part in violent attacks, pictures, screen shots of facebook pages all purporting to belong to members of this grand jury. so, know, one thing that just kind of, one comment that stuck out really to us going through this was, somebody looking at that list of grand jurors and calling it a hit list. quite chilling. >> of course. >> great reporting. keep us posted. it's important. appreciate your time. so this morning negotiations are under way for donald trump's surrender in the state of georgia. take a look. this is a live shot of the fulton county jail where the former president has eight days left to turn himself in on those felony charges for trying to overturn his 2020 election loss in the state. district attorney fani willis now asking the judge to start that trial on march 4th, a day

before super tuesday when trump will be competing in more than a dozen presidential primaries. remember, for criminal cases he's got to be in the courtroom. learning more about rudy giuliani. one of trump's lawyers, serious money problems. he's one of trump's 18 co-defendants in this georgia indictment, and his legal bills have been mounting. a source tells cnn giuliani went down to mar-a-lago with his lawyer in recent months to make a desperate face-to-face appeal to trump and ask him to help pay. >> so some ways it's important to step back. especially in this moment. four different indictments a calendar. look at it. looks empty. it is not. by the way, talking about repeatedly, this is not just about the cases. not just legal. the political is deeply intertwined in it. he has a lot on his plate, the former president. >> yeah. >> when are these trials going to happen? >> question of today and the next few weeks and important on so many different levels. four indicted cases jockeying for limited position on the

calendar. only way to understand this, i think, to just see it visually. now, here. november, of course, the election. a crucial day. are they going to get the cases dried before then? look what we have as of this moment. the new york case. hush money case, scheduled for trial at end of march. that will go through april. then you have jack smith's florida case. mar-a-lago documents case scheduled to begin in late may. that is going to go through june and into july. okay. doesn't look so bad so far. here's what's new. jack smith's team has asked for their other case, the january 6th case, they want that to start in the beginning of january. now, today, donald trump's team will respond to this. they're going to say we want it probably somewhere out here, way beyond the election, but if jack smith's team gets its way, that trial taking four months conservatively. a probably here already in march and april. think that could get worse? fani willis, fulton county d.a. in georgia wants her case start

beginning of march. trials potentially double and triple tracked. if this is making your head hurt what i can tell you. trial dates also move. these dates i suspect have to move. this can't all play out. how do i think most likely to play out? i think most likely to see jack smith's case, one or both of them potentially tried before the election. i think the two state cases new york and georgia are likely to move out. alvin bragg, new york d.a. stated publicly he's willing to consider moving his. a collision coming and crucial to see which get tried. >> a lot more to come, clearly. can't be definitive on dates on anything because of all of those elements. by the way, respect the hustle drawing on the magical board there, man, your handwriting getting better. on the wall, it's tough. i want to ask great reporting last night how rudy giuliani who reportedly was in dire financial straits gone down to mar-a-lago basically saying desperately needed help from the former

president. if you're a defendant and need help on money the one you might blame for issues is not helping you, what does that mean? >> second big question to watch. who else charged in the cases? who else will flip? in the new case, the georgia case, fulton county case, there are 19 defendants. donald trump and 18 others including mr. giuliani. will any of them choose to serve their best interests financially and perhaps in the legal system? by flipping against donald trump? not seen any indication any of these folks have flipped but also remember. in the other case, in the other 2020 election case, federal case. these 6 people including rudy again, co-conspirators, not charged but all have been indicted in the georgia case, could find themselves with a second indictment. so these incentives pile up, phil. not seen indication any of these insiders will flip but you never know. things change after people get charged. >> to your point, rudy giuliani doesn't seem to be pointing in

that direction based on his comments to this point. >> thank you. and the first primary debate. president trump may skip it or consider counterprogramming for the debate and doing an interview with fox news host tucker carlson. new reporting from our colleague who joins us now from washington, d.c. good morning. what else are you learning what he might do wednesday night? >> reporter: good morning, poppy, and, yes. you're right. all indications i'm getting from donald trump's team is that he is not going to participate in that debate next week. of course, with the hedge, i included in the story, that this is donald trump we're talking about. covered him for years and his team tells me always a small chance that he may decide in the 11th hour he ultimately wants to go. of course, logistical questions whether he would be able to do that, but most likely he will not be on that debate stage next week. instead, donald trump himself has been personally throwing out ideas for counterprogramming.

there have been discussions between donald trump's team and tucker carlson about an interview around the same time on wednesday. of course, this all comes as donald trump is feuding openly with fox news and rupert murdoch and tucker carlson clearly has left fox news and so some motivation there's i think behind the scenes. also i'm told that donald trump's team wants some of his surrogates to represent him at the debate. especially if not there. like byron donalds, congressman from florida and matt gaetz, another congressman from florida and kari lake, gooubernatorial candidate. one thing i find interesting and picking up in my conversations is that donald trump has been telling people this week even that there was a dinner last month fox news executives, the president jay wallace as well u

chief executive encouraged donald trump to participate in the debate. trump personally telling people he think that shows fox is worried about ratings without him and feeling he's in a strong position not to attend next week. >> thank you very much. see what he does maybe even at the 11th hour, as you said. troubling news, cancer diagnosis rates on the rise for younger americans according to a new study and a certain gender and age group seeing the biggest stage. dr. sanjay gupta will break down the findings coming up. and facing heat wearing a prosthetic nose about leonard bernstein and the legendary family is rushing to his defense. d flavor. mmmm. now available at subway. the sub, not the mouth guauard. oh booking.com, ♪ i'm going to somewhere, anywhere. ♪ ♪ a beach house a treehouse, ♪ ♪ honestly i don't care ♪ find the perfect vacation rental for u

this morning canada declared a state of emergency in northwest territory. more than 230 active wildfires are burning and officials call a crisis situation. officials say the capital yellowknife now under threat from spreading fires heavy smoke and flames. thousands of people ordered to evacuate. some told to leave now. others by noon tomorrow. new this morning, the death toll from hawaii's devastating wildfires has ricin to 111. governor josh green told cnn last night he estimates there are still more than 1,000 people missing. search teams have gone through just 38% of the area, still cert searching for more victims. at a news conference maui's police chief gave this devastating update. >> we've found remains that are maybe smaller than other remains?

not going to sensationalize that, but the answer to that is, yes. but we haven't, what i'm talking about is children. okay? so we're going to do this right. i have to, we have to identify them and notify them, but that's what we're dealing with. >> and we learned from county officials the name of five of the victims. 74-year-old robert dikeman. 79 yard buddy jantock, 90-year-old virginia dofa and 79 yard alfredo, and cnn confirmed with families names of two other victims. 68-year-old frank lynn trainos, a kind and nature lover. carol hartley lived on the island 36 years. her sister says she'll remember her as a special loving person from a young age who always looked for got in people. this as survivors right now want to know why the warning sirens

did not go off in maui as the wildfire began to rage. cnn's chief climate reporter is on the ground. >> reporter: aloha from maui where the effort to put out these pesky hot spots in this up-country fire continue. this is maui fire department with the yellow bucket, recall our frort yreport from yesterda out with bottled water trying to put smoking hot spots down and until they eventually got help from this chopper here. but the latest here is just that death toll continues to tick up in a way that has people worried about whether it will jump. if this will just be a sort of a constant one or two a day. about a third of the area in lahaina town now searched. they've radically increased the number of dogs. i believe the governor says

there's 40 dogs working that scene now and should be able to get a lot more covered in the near-term here. i did see a couple of folks in fema vests talking to homeowners, maybe trying to get them into the system to make a claim for a one-time cash payment or get housing repair help. if your house look is like thiso repairs. for working class especially native hawaiians a lot of worry they'lling tempted to sell or can't afford to rebuild and dwindling that soul, the s cultural heart and soul of the natives is a great worry to a lot of folks here. especially rebuilding lahaina town. concerns it will turn into another honolulu. there is a lot of talk about the alarm system. we continue to get conflicting information about what happened with the governor saying that maybe some of the sirens were old, and didn't go off. we did hear from the fire chief who says it was never set off in the first place, that the communication between the field

and somebody at the computer to start the alarm broke down given speed of the fire. there were tests. they do test alarms 1st of every month. a lot of questions there for the investigation as that is unfolding. the president, first lady, coming on monday. we'll see if that solves any wounds from a lot of people who feel abandoned here. no signs of national guard, although they've doubled number of troops, close to 500, to help put out these fires. we'll keep looking and keep you posted best we can. kick it back to you in the studio. >> on the ground there, bill weir. bringing u.s reporting. meantime rates of cancer diagnoses rising among fairly young americans according to a new government-funded study justified published finding women in their 30s drove that increase by a large majority. our chief medical correspondent dr. sanjay gupta looking into all of this. surprised women so young. good morning. >> right. yeah.

this is a bit of a warning call. i think we have to look at this data and read into it and understand what's going on here. if someone is diagnosed under age 50, considered early onset cancer. early onset diagnosis. what they tried to figure out, how much has this changed over the last ten years or so? what are we seeing? seeing more cases diagnosed in youngser people? the answer, like you said, it's, yes. primarily people in their 30s driving that increase and primarily women. show you. per 100,000 back in 2010, about 100 cases diagnosed in that age group go, fast-forward ten years roughly. closer to 103. about a 3% increase over that 10 years. doesn't sound like a lot, but if you start to extrapolate and fast-forward further into the future, the concern those numbers will continue to balloon. again, it is primarily women. men did not have the same increase. you did not see the same

increase in people over age 50 as well. >> sanjay, obvious question is why? what's accounting for the increase? >> we're not sure. this is a, a topic of significant debate right now within the oncology community trying to decipher numbers. we do know what the types of cancers are sort of driving the increase. breast cancer, for example. thyroid cancer and colon cancer, the three driving it. some others on the list as well but those are the primary three. could be a combination of a couple things really. one is that we are betting at sc -- better at screening than 10 20shg , 20 years ago. oncologists don't think that accounts for everything. at the age, in your 30s, significant higher percentage of people obese than there were 20, 30, 40 years ago. we know when people are taking

in lots of glucose developing lots of insulin as a result in addition to creating fat in the bodies that can also fuel cancers. so that could also be part of it. just the general unhealth. those are sort of the, the top sort of two ideas. again, it's a subject of debate. a lot of people want to fig ter out obviously to bring the numbers down. >> how can we, can we, keep it from becoming a bigger problem, sanjay? >> well, i think one of the things is, we still know there's a utility in screening tests. you know, it was about month ago we did a report talking about colon cancer rates going up among young people specifically. screenings can help. obviously not talking about people in their 30s. once you get into your 40s. if you're talking about mammography or colon cancer screening there is specific recommendations when to get those screenings. mammography starting at age 45 unless you have a family history. 55 years getting yearly or every other year and for colon cancer

screenings, beginning those screenings, again, at 45 as well. i think larger issue here, though, again, is looking at the general health. if it is true and seems to be, that the same things that are driving obesity could also be driving cancer rates. fueling the body, fueling these cancers at the same time. we have to address that. there's just a higher percentage of people obese now than there were when i was in that age. i'm over 50 now and i don't think you guys are, but we find people over age of 50 their cancer rates stayed relatively flat. might be some information there as well what to do in the future. >> all right. >> really important. thanks so much, dr. sanjay gupta. >> you got it, thank you. well, there's the campaign trail and there are campaign trials. ahead, when the fulton county's d.a. is hoping to begin her trial against the former president and his 18 co-defendants and we'll talk to two witnesses who testified

pictures from outside the fulton county jail where donald trump and his co-defendants have to turn themselves in by next friday, if the district attorney fani willis has her way. donald trump will face trial in georgia before super tuesday. a big "if." fani willis asked for a court date to those accused in the state. a trial one of several potential trials colliding directly with

the 2024 presidential campaign schedule. willis' date just a proposal. judge gets the final say and this just in. seeing the first polling since these indictments in georgia. according to an abc ipsos poll 47% say the charges are very serious. 16% say somewhat serious. joining us to talk about all of this, two witness whose testified before the fulton county grand jury monday, just hours before that indictment was returned. cnn political commentator and former republican lieutenant governor duncan and former georgia state senator jim jurgen. start with report top of the show from donie o'sullivan in terms of the jurors. you spoke to them. both spoke to them. both said took their jobs very seriously. it was very sober and heavy kind of moment. their names were in as they were supposed to be, based on georgia law, the indictment. now docs, names floating around, threats directed to them. you guys faced similar types of

threats over the last couple years. what's your response to what's you're seeing now? >> a prelude of what's to come. i wish georgia law didn't require that their names were in there but it does. but it is incredibly serious. the lieutenant governor and i both had significant threats against our lives and our families, and, look, we played such a small role, but if you have trump supporters who really look at these grand jurors as kind of the reason that this case is going forward, you know, with trump saying, you know, this isn't true. these are lies. i mean, these people's lives are in danger and their families in danger and it's very, very serious. >> i keep thinking whether that law neemds amended in georgia. for such high profile cases like this. trump case is one. terrible what's happening and their names on page 9 in the indictment. the other young thug case going on right now and just a lot of

high-profile cases that these jurors have no choice whether to participate, it's their constitutional duty and whether their names are out there. should that law be amended? >> i had no idea that was the law, certainly my first time going through the grand jury process as a witness, but, yeah. i can't imagine there's value to publishing those names. putting them out there. speaks to the culture donald trump built. this culture of anger. right? he's just confused so many good-hearted republicans, and folks across the country to think that conservatism meaners you got to be angry and loud and visceral. nothing to do with conservatism. to think anybody would take out the ansgst on these folks or us or anybody else calling balls and strikes is painful. >> i think the bigger issue, really, is, these are just the grand jurors. can you imagine who is going to sit on the jury and what they're going to be subjected to? >> already saw a threat to the judge in the federal case.

>> absolutely. >> this law the same. right? as i understand it. not just about grand juries but also about the jury in georgia in the upcoming trial? >> in fulton county a camera. right? these folks will be on-screen every day, everyone is going to know who they are. their lives turned upside-down. just to be able to sit a jury of people who would be even willing to put, you know, their lives on the line, it's going to be really, really difficult. something we all need to think about. i know the d.a.'s office is. but it is, know, it's serious. >> flipping to the political side of things, because you have been very clear for months now including in the wake of this case that this is the moment where republicans need to pivot, after first indictment, second, third, fourth indictment. a big debate is coming up. look at polling just talking about. a snapshot. not the whole story. 47% serious.

16% somewhat serious. 53% of americans believe he definitely did something illegal. obviously, just take republican primary electorate, smaller by a significant degree. in these first few days, do you see any of what you wanted to happen for the party even or the periphery starting to happen? >> i do. certainly some motion started to go in a different direction. right? hearing conversations. there's a lot of inquiries around what is next. right? i think break it down as a business problem. donald trump went on a multiyear crime spree and i think americans specifically republicans are starting to see that. even if the 35% of republicans in love with donald trump are starting to realize it's an impossible mathematical equation to win the election. break it down like a business problem. attack -- if 35% dieheart in love with donald trump, who are the 65% and message them and find more. figure a way to short-circuit caucuses in iowa, in new

hampshire. take big dollar donors out there that haven't jumped in yet and get them behind a full-scale effort to flip that 20% lead that donald trump's got in iowa and roll into new hampshire. now reset the stage. never a better time for gop 2.0 to show up and really lead with our policies. right? instead of us talking about donald trump, what if we talked about only 36% of americans? americans think joe biden's a responsible, enough to handle the economy. >> yeah. bad new poll for him. came out this morning. >> should be talking about -- >> to your point, calls happening behind the scenes between pretty significant donors. between republican operatives the last eight, ten months. >> now or never. calling on candidates -- i don't want to see more press conferences like tim scott's, ron desantis's, nikki haley. tiptoe around the issue. call donald trump out for being a liar on his way for being a felon and move forward, they'll get called out on the debate stage by people like chris christie.

>> and they should. >> commendable, but we've been at this point together? right? i thought january 6th was going to be that pivot point. if that couldn't be the pivot point, why do we think this is you've been calling it out, everybody else in georgia in terms of republicans have been tiptoeing. >> and brian -- >> skills i would make. brian kemp's play. put conservatism on the play. go to the right, the milled and folks on the left to meet a well-funded named i.d.'d opponent like stacyey abrams. whole idea, governor was for trump until he wasn't. state-wide runs in georgia republicans aren't going to call him out and they aren't. we know that. while it's commendable and i appreciate you doing that, the idea that this is some kind of pivot point, i don't think it is. >> i a, goo brian kemp was against donald trump during covid, pushed back on that. against him making his senate nominee instead of making donald

trump's pick. brian kemp his own man for four years. >> by the way, won by significant margin in a state trump and -- republican senators lost. >> good point. >> by 52 points. >> a lot. in politics a lot. >> that's a lot. >> enjoyed this. come back together. thank you very much. former lieutenant governor geoff duncan and jen jordan, appreciate it. first on cnn. secretary of state antony blinken spoke by phone to american paul whelan detained in russia more than four years. a source tells cnn it bas a long and a frank phone call with blinken given whelan words of encouragement and telling him keep the faith as they work to bring him home and his brother spoke with cnn saying they view this is a really positive step. >> i think secretary blinken obviously sent a message and the message is for paul and our family that the u.s. government is continuing to advocate for paul in his release and i think also a message for the kremlin

that the u.s. government hasn't let up and, in fact, their lead foreign policy person is willing to call a prisoner, which is i think, astounding. >> u.s. officials do say russia has not responded in a substantive way to the proposals raised so far. keep a close eye on this. christian bale famously played in "the big short" investors making millions betting against the housing market. next, what behind his latest big bet on the stock market crash. and i want to show you a new records "barbie" shattered. we listened to that dance song with my kids in n the car sunda night. so fun. ♪ got the keys to what you want and what you need ♪ ♪ something new something sweet t ♪ ♪ moving to a different beat ♪ ♪ okay now (what?) ♪ ♪ can i get a (get a) drumroll?

inheritance money, very well. stick with stocks. >> look, you don't mean -- i -- i -- i look for value wherever it can be found. it's only a matter of time before someone else sees this investment. we have to act now! >> that was christian bale playing hotshot investor michael murray in the academy award-winning film "the lbig short." made millions betting against the housing market before the collapse in 2008. now wall street investor taking notice, wall street investors taking notice of his latest wager despite very successful years for the nasdaq and s&p. spent more than $1.6 billion on the market crashing. apparently putting a big chunk more than 90% of his portfolio on that but there's a little more to it. joining us for more on this, people pay attention to what he does. what's he really doing here? >> a great question. boston finance said to me, to be

a great trader you need to be right 51% of the time. and thinking i'm going to hate this job and was right. the same rule applies here. what he's done is buy insurance. he's taken big bets that will make money if the market goes down. beyond that, it's tough to see what else is going on. these bets may still notting valid. may have run off by now. we don't know really in terms of what the market was doing, whether this was part of a bigger strategy. you have to be a bit careful. i can't tell you in that awful previous life used to do this with a lot of clients. i would protect what they owned already. if i thought turbulence was coming or that the market may trip over. take a step back look what's going on today, that's a possibility. to your point. you mentioned the markets had a great run this year. perhaps time to take a bit of protection or take money off the table. the other thing to consider here i think as well as the economic data. look at fed minutes yesterday. we've gotten to a comfortable position and think the federal

reserve is done with their rate hikes. what actually, given strength of the data, happens if they have to hike rates again? causing problems, too. the other thing i think is interesting in what michael did, he sold chinese stocks. the chinese officials this week said their recovery has been tortuous. that's a drag on economic growth too. if all of these reasons, for these, my view, panic. worried what to do with your 401(k), no knee-jerk reactions, please. >> you have to weigh in. your favorite story of the day. >> i understand the big headline number. inside, context. >> be roeally careful. >> don't draw conclusions. >> buying, too. health care, consumer stocks. so -- yeah. leave the "crash" word out of this. >> thank you. "barbie" hasn't even been in theaters a full month and the blockbuster is still not

finished breaking records. >> this is the best day ever. >> it is the best day ever. so was yesterday and so is tomorrow and every day from now until forever! [ cheers ] you guys ever think about dieing? >> it is indeed, poppy. the best day ever. from now until forever for "barbie" the movie just topped 2008's "the dark knight". and a comedy joining $1 billion club in the box office and could be on track to become highest grossing film of the year. joining us, staff writer covering entertainment and popular culture. i learned a ton reading him. chris murphy. note up front, warner brothers discovery is cnn's parent company. what i'm fascinated by a number of countries, foreign countries in particular, haven't necessarily gotten on to the "barbie" bandwagon to say the least and still -- >> still it's made almost $1.2

billion at the global box office. "barbie" is banned in various countries including kuwait, vietnam, algeria. might be banned in lebanon, which gave it a much sort of uphill climb to sort of become a global sensation. you know, other movies like "the super mario brothers" movie. biggest movie of the year, i don't think mario was banned anywhere else in the world. "barbie" was able to surpass, probably, the amount of money "super mario" made despite it's barred in many places. >> brilliant also about the film the fact gretta -- able to write a script and direct a film that took a stereotypical often sort of shunned now doll saying it's too perfect, blah, blah, blah, body, serious body image concerns completely flipped it on its head and have such a pro-feminist message. it's genius. >> absolutely genius. and shows that, you know, when

you put women in front of the camera and behind the camera. >> ah, good things happen? >> good things happen, actually. actually a usc study out today saying in the past year for the top 100 grossing films, less than a quarter of the directors, writers and producers are women. guess what? "barbie" has a female director in grettaa gerwig, co-writer an margot robbie co-producer and star. >> out ranked ryan gosling. >> five minutes. totally insane. i think a trend what you're trying to say here. i want to ask one other thing. we saw the issue about bradley cooper playing leonard bernstein in a movie. there was some outrage, probably not the word. premium set about a prosthetic nose and yet the family was

accusative and backing of the praise. why? >> bradley cooper landed in hot water because of a prosthetic nose and anti-. sheic similar to black face but the family supported bradley cooper immediately after saying perfectly fine with the nose and said their father had a very nice, big nose and in the joint statement and they said that cooper involved them in every part of the process along the way and sort of unequivocally stand by cooper. he has the family's blessing to make the movie and the way he decided to make it. >> great to have you, chris. >> come back. do this often. >> yes. >> all right. back to politics. that was fun, though. enjoyed that. informative. tim scott is a viable option for republicans soured on to the former president. a big question everybody's asking. we'll hear from some republicans having a chang

>> reporter: attacking the legal process instead of the trump campaign. and, showing little appetite to take on any candidate, even trump himself, despite mounting legal woes. >> is insurmountable. >> no, it's not. i'm campaigning, because i believe my positive messages being rooted in iowa and that frankly our poll numbers goes up . >> reporter: troubles are dominant lead in the race. >> i considered other people that would do their job, maybe without some of the conflict that president trump had with all the lawsuits. >> i with trump would fade. >> reporter: more than $10 million worth of ads. at an event in cambridge, he saw the payoff firsthand. >> in my commercials, if you take out a loan, you pay it back

. hallelujah. we love it. it's hard to see the commercials. i wonder if they were buying anything with that money. >> reporter: a whopping 69% of likely caucus goers say they have a favorable view of scott. according to a recent poll, his pursuit of momentum will have to carry into next week's debate. a crucial test, and opportunity. the florida governor, ron desantis, looking to reboot his campaign and it trumps appearance on the stage, very much in doubt, scott is convinced that he can compete. so mickey can run this race for one objective. >> i want to be the president of united states. >> reporter: his campaign releasing this video. >> you get in the race for the presidency, to win. >> reporter: what is the strategy to gain momentum? >> the good news is, we continue to do what we have been doing and focus on the

positive message anchored in conservatism with a backbone. >> reporter: new this morning, we are learning that the campaign is placing an $8 million ad by, that is the second major aid add purchase since the campaign launched in may. >> they have money, let's see if they have momentum. thank you. the d.a. wants former president trump to go on trial in early march. right before super tuesday. we will discuss whether the timeline is realistic. that is coming up next . why is aaron happy? well, just days ago, his old wheeeels gave out, but he knew carvana had his back. that's because carvana had thousands of cars under twentyhousand dollars. and with the new cogner option, aaron's folks were abl to help him out

being middle class right now, it's tough making ends meet for sure. republicans in congress say if we just cut taxes even more for the biggest corporations the money will eventually someday trickle trickle down to you. right. joe biden would rather just stop those corporations from charging so damn much. capping the cost of drugs like insulin. cracking down on surprise medical bills and all those crazy junk fees. there's more work to do. tell the president to keep lowering costs for middle class families. my most important kitchen tool? my brain. so i choose neuriva plus. unlike some others, neuriva plus is a multitasker supporting 6 key indicators of brain health. to help keep me sharp. neuriva: think bigger.
