she is happy, happy, happy. she is available to play thursday. i really think that angel will be like angel. i mean, she's just been good. she's been really good in practice. do you want to know how many hours, how many days, specifics? she's not going to show up tomorrow and play a game. what is in that locker room stays in that locker room unless it becomes something that is public. >> well, her absence was very public, but i guess the reason behind it will stay in that locker room forever. >> i guess so. you know, i have to say to go back to aaron, i didn't think that 40 years old -- it is not that old, but trying to heal an achilles in 3 and a half months? >> and the jets season is a lost season basically. that is why most people just think -- >> totally. all right. andy scholes, thank you very much. thanks to all of you for joining us. i'm kasie hunt. "cnn this morning" starts right

now. >> don't go anywhere, cnn this morning starts right now. good morning, everyone i'm phil mattingly with erica hill. we have major news breaking overnight on this thursday, november 309. israel and hamas clinching a last minute deal to pause the fighting in exchange for a day without military action. at least three people are dead, six others are wounded in jerusalem after police say palestinian gunmen opened fire at a bus stop. henry kissinger is dead at 100, he reshaped american diplomacy and the world during the cold war and beyond. and in two hours, george santos is set to speak from the steps of the capitol ahead of tomorrow's planned expulsion vote. he isn't packing his bags just yet. the house speaker says he has, quote, real reservations about showing santos the door. "cnn this morning" starts right

now. you can see it there in that video, the big smile, the wave from 73-year-old irina tati. one of the 16 hostages just released by hamas. 102 hostages have been released or recovered so far. israel believes there were 145 people taken on october 7th still in gaza. today we're expecting ten more women and children to be freed. the fragile pause stands for now. the big question, how long will this last? what happens at midnight. this one-day deal came down to the wire extended minutes before the pause was set to fire. >> israel insisting that the terms for this and any future deal must remain the same, ten living hostages in exchange for another day of the pause. here's a senior adviser to the israeli prime minister moments after that extension was

announced. if hamas releases ten israelis, that means the pause can continue. we're not going to play games with the lives of our people. hamas knows what the parameters of the deal are. >> earlier hamas said it offered a different deal, seven women and children hostages and the bodies of three more hostages. israel did reject that deal. it also raises serious questions about how much longer this pause can be extended. >> we start with matthew chance, he is live in tel aviv. matthew, 18 more hours for the pause as it stands now. what happens next here? >> hopefully there will be a further pause. mark regev, the spokesperson ral lee government saying there needs to be ten israeli living hostages released in exchange

for a single day's pause and the release of palestinian prisoners in the influx of aid relief into the gaza strip as well. that's continuing now for a seventh consecutive day. r israel says it's received a list of hostages from hamas by the mediators in qatar and elsewhere. the preparations are underway for an exchange along the lines that we've seen for the past six days, but the fact that hamas says israel rejected that offer of seven hostages plus three bodies. it gives us pause for thought and implies that hamas may be finding it difficult to gather women and children who are alive to exchange for prisoners and to pass over back to israel. it doesn't mean, of course, all of them are dead. we know for a fact according to israeli officials that some of the hostages that are kept in gaza are not with hamas. they're with other groups,

criminal gangs as well. it's a logistical obstacle for hamas to gather these people and bring them to a point they can be handed over. that's an issue. nevertheless, we're looking at how fragile as well this cease fire or this temporary truce continues to be. they've agreed this one extension, but every day now, the israeli cabinet will be looking at whether they want to extend, whether there's enough reason to extend the pause for another day. but at any moment according to israeli officials, hostilities or the combat, the warfare in the gaza strip may start up once again. >> yeah, it is all so tenuous. i wanted to ask you, breaking overnight, we've learned at least three people were killed, six injured after police say palestinian gunmen opened fire on a bus stop in the eastern part of jerusalem near the west bank. i know we have some video, i think, too. you can see someone here being taken away on a stretcher. this happened hours after the idf killed four people,

including two children, in the occupied west bank city of jenin. can you tell us more about what happened in these incidents, matthew? >> reporter: this is all part of the real upsurge in violence that's been taking place elsewhere in the region, in the west bank, in east jerusalem as well, where we've seen clashes between israeli forces, palestinians, in various locations. this latest iteration taking place in jerusalem where two palestinian gunmen opened fire, killing three israelis, injuring six others. passers by, some of them sort of off-duty military personnel opened fire on the palestinian gunmen, killed two of them as they were trying to get back into their car and run away. very compelling closed circuit television footage of that incident taking place, but it just underlines the tensions that are now sort of simmering

and boiling over as a result of the ongoing israeli campaign in the gaza strip and the military operations continuing elsewhere as well. appreciate it, thank you. >> phil. right now secretary of state antony blinken is in israel meeting behind closed doors with prime minister benjamin netanyahu and others about getting hostages out and about what comes next. the meetings come as the white house and israel are working to figure out how to protect civilians in gaza, particularly southern gaza once the pause ends. we're going to show you what khan younis looks like right now from the back of a donkey cart. khan younis is in the south, that's where the idf told people to flee earlier in the war. now the u.s. is pressing israel to move those civilians out of the way if they're going to restart military operations in the south and to make them more

targeted. just to show people what we're talking about before i get to you, this is a satellite analysis of damage in gas from october 5th through november 22nd, and you will see up here in the north where operations from the idf have been centered. the scale of the damage of the strikes over the course of the air campaign, the ground campaign have been significant. that was why the idf told gazan -- people living in gaza to head towards the south, pass this dividing line into the area near khan younis. if you look down there, there's significantly fewer strikes, less damage despite the fact there have been strikes. given these behind the scenes conversations that have been ongoing, do administration officials believe they have the leverage with israeli officials that they will listen? >> i mean, we'll ultimately end up seeing whether that ends up being the case. what we do know is that these active conversations are ongoing between u.s. and israel about

what israel's military operations will look like once this current truce is over. the president and his top aides are telling his counterparts that they don't want to see the idf replicate the massive air campaign that we saw up in the north once they are ready to turn to the south, and one of the ideas we are told that is being discussed is the idea of moving some of the civilians that fled south earlier in the war back up to the north. now, this would be once the military operations up in northern gaza have concluded, but i think, phil, you just showed in such a vivid way why this would be such a significant challenge given that so much of northern gaza, so many parts of that region has been completely decimated, and this is actually one of the major reasons why u.s. officials are so keen on seeing humanitarian aid, not just flow into gaza but northern gaza in particular. now, israel has, of course, made clear that it isn't done in

northern gaza but that it does intend to eventually turn to southern gaza, there is intelligence that shows that hamas leadership had fled south as well. >> it's a great point. this is military operations that would be designed to go after that leadership, but also from the u.s. perspective, part of the condition is not just the fact that there's more than a million people that have fled to the south over crowded facilities, but also that the aid comes in from down here in the south through egypt, through the rafah crossing. i also want to know, this isn't all happening in a vacuum. there are very real domestic political considerations in these behind the scenes talks. israel remains a divisive issue inside the democratic party, insides senate democratic caucus at a time when biden needs all the support he can get. how is he navigate ing this rig

now? >> back home, of course there are divisions in his own party about how to support israel, how much to support israel, and we're seeing that play out in congress right now as lawmakers debate the issue of aid for israel, some members saying it needs to be conditional based on humanitarian provisions. this is something we're seeing play out as a tension. there is a desire to end this war as quickly as possible, but also continue supporting israel, and its sort of stated mission of eradicating hamas, making sure it can never do again what happened on october 7th. so i think this is why we're starting to see a little bit more emphasis coming from the white house on talking about what post-war gaza looks like. one thing that is clear is that the white house clearly sees that the next phase of this war, once the truce is over, has to be different. >> mj lee rolling out great reporting almost hourly over the course of the last several days from the white house north lawn, thank you. george santos' time in

congress could be running out. he's set to respond to the looming expulsion vote, as house speaker mike johnson explains why he's so hesitant to kick santos out. more tributes overnight for henry kissinger, how they're remembering the diplomat.

really set the standard for everyone who followed in this job. few people were better students at history, even fewer people did more to shape history than he henry kissinger. >> secretary of state antony blinken this morning honoring one of the most influential diplomats in american history. former secretary of state henry kissinger who died at the age of 100. his influence can be felt in policy from vietnam to the middle east to china. he helped orchestrate richard nixon's visit in 1972. kissinger last visited china in july. cnn's richard roth has a look back at his controversial legacy. >> i know all of you will want to hear from the new secretary of state. >> henry kissinger never really needed an introduction on the world stayed again. kissinger the most famous statesman of the last half of

the 20th century. celebrated and controversial. as richard nixon's national security adviser and secretary of state, the diplomat wielded enormous power and influence. so trusted that it was kissinger who went to china on a secret mission to explore a historic opening of u.s. relations with communist china. >> whoever went would be alone in beijing with no communication, and therefore, if he didn't know nixon's mind, he might do foolish things. >> initially, there were fears a u.s./china ping-pong exchange match would affect the high stakes political gambit. >> every once in a while something happens in diplomacy, which transcends the drafting. >> vietnam, casualties mounted as the vietnamese gained territory. nixon and an undiplomatic

kissinger thought more bombing of the north would help. >> within 48 hours. >> reporter: kissinger approved secret bombings of north vietnamese in cambodia without congressional approval. he would say sometimes statesman have to choose among evils, moral compromises. kissinger and his vietnamese counterpart were awarded the nobel peace prize for their role in negotiating a cease fire. >> i have to say i have never dealt with a group of people as treacherous as the north vietnamese leadership. >> reporter: kissinger insisted trouble on the home front hurt chances to succeed in vietnam. >> we lost the war because we were divided, and also because we were too uncertain about what we wanted. >> reporter: kissinger's support for a coup in chile drew

crit criticism kissinger's legacy would be tested decades later when he testified in congress at the age of 91. kissinger grew up in germany with war clouds are swirling. his family fled when he was 15. >> half of the people i went to school with and about 13 members of my own family died in concentration camps. >> reporter: a jewish secretary of state who would later listen to his president krit criticize jewish people. >> i only heard anti-semitic comments when some jewish group would take him for something he had done. >> reporter: in the middle east, kissinger performed what came to be known as shuttle diplomacy to separate israeli and arab forces, setting the stage for future peace accords. when nixon resigned as president, kissinger stayed on as gerald ford's secretary of state. his opinion still widely sought after by governments and businesses after leaving public

office. >> you want to leave your country better off than you found it, and there's nothing in private life you can do that's as interesting and as fulfilling. >> reporter: there was one job kissinger said he never got to do in his life, a sports announcer. >> derek who? >> reporter: however, the globe trotting diplomat did star in some of history's biggest games. >> former president george w. bush, who of course is an avid painter honored kissinger by releasing this portrait calling him one of the most distinctive voices in foreign affairs and thanking kissinger for his friendship. >> let's bring in cnn presidential historian, tim naftali. . we always appreciate your perspective. it is so striking. he was over meeting with president xi jinping a couple of months ago. he shaped history that is unequivocally the case burt he continued to after he was out of

government. what's his legacy? >> well, with richard nixon, he created a structure, a complicated structure and achieved a detente with the soviet union and an opening with china as a by of buffering the fact the united states was going to withdraw from southeast asia. kissinger's great concern is that the united states, its influence would collapse as a super power as a result of the fact that the united states had to get out of vietnam. so with nixon he designed this structure, and it continues to influence us to this day as our relationship with china is extremely controversial, that relationship is built on the foundations set in place by richard nixon and henry kissinger. >> there is rightfully so, such a focus on what he did shape because of his role in a profe professional capacity.

there are also a number of fascinating anecdotes, this quote stood out to me overnight, the nice thing about being a celebrity is that if you bore people, they think it's your fault. he spent time at studio 54. >> henry kissinger loved the limelight. he loved being the center on the stage, the world stage, and other stages too. he was perfectly adept at charming those who interacted with him. he got very good press, unlike richard nixon who really didn't like to interact with people, which actually created a tension between nixon and kissinger, which you can hear on the tapes. kissinger liked the fact and knew that he was the center of attention. he was not some retiring professor. he was a professor who loved theater. >> tim naftali, we always appreciate your expertise. there's a million things you can get into here, a very complicated and at some level divisive career, but one that

undeniably has shaped history for decades. we appreciate it, tim. thank you. >> thank you. the head of america's biggest bank seems to be all in on nicki highkki haley, and he surprising group to join him in supporting her. and elon musk lashes out at advertisers who fled his platform x. he has three words for them.m. >> go [ blbleep ] yoururself.

first time i connected with kim, she told me that her husband had passed. and that he took care of all of the internet connected devices in the home. i told her, “i'm here to take care of you.” connecting with kim... made me reconnect with my mom. it's very important to keep loved ones close. we know that creating memories with loved ones brings so much joy to your life. a family trip to the team usa training facility. i don't know how to thank you. i'm here to thank you.

this is the third time we're going through this. i don't care. i was sent here by the people of the third district of new york. i represent them, not the political class in washington, d.c. they want to send me home, if they think this was a fair process. if they think this is how it should be done and if they're confident that this is the constitutional way of doing it, god bless their hearts. >> is it inevitable it happens? >> that was congressman george santos vowing to fight for his political life. in two hours the new york republican is expected to speak on the steps of the capitol before tomorrow's expected eve expulsion vote. >> a scathing report detailed his misuse of campaign funds on airbnb, personal credit card debt, purchases at sephora and only fans. house speaker mike johnson is concerned that expelling santos could set a troubling standard in congress. >> we're going to allow people to vote their conscience, i

think it's the only appropriate thing we can do. we've not whipped the vote, and we wouldn't. i trust that people will make that decision thoughtfully and in good faith. i personally have real reservations about doing this. i'm concerned about a precedent that may be set for that. >> joining us now cnn senior political analyst john avlon, cnn political list and historian and cnn congressional correspondent jessica dean. i want to start with the durability of just the mention of george santos and only fans making everybody in our studio crack up every single time it happens. >> the gift that keeps on giving. >> i appreciate that. jess, i'm not sure whey expected from the speaker yesterday. he has a very slim majority. >> yes. >> there are a number of reasons why you wouldn't want to lose one of your members. however, were you surprised given the ethics report? >> well, the ethics report was so damning, i am paraphrasing here, but it essentially said that george santos used every

single angle of all of this to further his personal financial situation, and it was very clear. so in a way, it gives some republican members cover now who previously didn't feel k comfortable, who said they were waiting on the ethics investigation to vote to expel him. however, to your point, mike johnson says he's not whipping the vote. he has reservations about what kind of precedent this might set. so it is -- it will be interesting to see who goes where when this vote actually happens. >> reservations, there's also the reality of what would be an even smaller margin. there's also a big fundraiser happening in new york in a matter of days. all of these things could be at play here. >> all of these things are interplayed. look, i think the issue is not so much concern about precedent. that was a reasonable argument particularly before we had ethics report. part of the republican party's continuing debate within itself is how much crazier are we going to tolerate to have narrowed

partisan margins in place. you know, the new york republicans don't want george santos to be the face of the north america republican party. he is. the combination of trump and santos is the larger problem. i want to emphasize one thing as you hear him sort of complain. george santos is not a victim, right? he perpetrated fraud upon his constituents by lying about every single aspect of his life and biography and then treating his campaign like a grift. and so, you know, any show that there's actually spine and moral background and some keend of standard for members of congress i think is probably a good thing right now. >> winge. >> you're welcome. >> i think john makes a good point. you can laugh at everything. the absurdity of it all is obscene on some level, and it's almost -- it's cartoonish both in presentation and in the actual report itself, but to take a step back, precedent here not from the mike johnson perspective but in the united

states house of representatives, expelling a member is something that just doesn't happen. this is a huge deal. what does this mean for congress? >> so it means everything, but i've got to say george santos as a fraud, as a scammer is in good company because that's largely where we've seen people expelled in the past. we've had only five people expelled in the history of the house of representatives. and three of those have been under the civil war, disloyalty to the union. the other two have been in the last 20, 40 years, and those people have been because they have committed scam, bribery, fraud, so george santos is very much in that faction. the difference, however, is that he's a republican. we've never had a republican expelled from the house of representatives, and i think it speaks to something much bigger about the republican party, including this idea about, you know, thou shall not speak ill about another republican. so you know, we know that's not true. >> that's gone. >> we know that that's gone, but it does -- johnson is very much

stimt still thinking about some of these things even as the biggest clown over the last 20 years has come to represent the face of the republican party. >> this is in the wake of donald trump too. there is a big difference, the other two members post-civil war were convicted. that's a fair and important contrast. he was my grandparents' congressman from youngstown, ohio, much to their great displeasure. i think you see a certain theme. look, how much more evidence do you need? >> well, yeah, and how much more are they willing to accept. that's -- how much more is the republican party willing to accept. >> which i think is a really important question. i want to get your take quickly on jamie dimon, jpmorgan's ceo saying he's encouraging progressive liberal democrats to come on over and get on the nikki haley train. >> yes. >> what is the impact of that? >> he's saying everyone should sort of rush to the nikki haley train. >> he is but he's specifically calling out, he's saying, hey, this is a place for you.

why? >> i think the argument he's making is particularly in states with open primaries like new hampshire where there's not a contest on the democratic side. democrats could play a constructive role in reducing the polarization crazy in our country by supporting either nikki haley or chris christie has made a similar argument. this isn't the spoiler scenario that people who like closed partisan primaries invoke. this is actually about the republican party has been hijacked by donald trump and it's important to stop this for the country. that's the argument that jamie dimon is making. i'm glad to see him at least get off the sidelines. a lot of folks have been fijnge in the wind. that's an important step. liz cheney made this point in the excerpt of the book that cnn published exclusively the other day. this is a time for a broader movement to stop donald trump for republicans, democrat, and independents. >> all right, guys, stay with us, don't go anywhere. we've got a lot more to get to. including elon musk and his very clear three-word message to advertisers. he also reveals what he thinks

would actually kill x. and the pause in fighting between israel and hamas is extended. we're going to ask israeli officials what that means, how this is going to change things going forward.

if somebody's going to try to blackmail me with advertising, blackmail me with money, go [ bleep ] yourself. but go [ bleep ] yourself. is that clear? i hope it is. >> seems pretty clear. also rather rare to see a leader of a public company lash out like that, wu this is not just any leader of any company. elon musk there in his first interview since endorsing that anti-semitic post on x, the platform formerly known as twitter. >> it's worth noting he called that post his dumbest ever of more than 30,000 tweets, and then he proceeded to do what you

just saw. our guests are back with us. john, the business model is advertising. he is a public company ceo. i guess i just don't understand the strategy. >> i think you shouldn't look for strategy. i think this is about impulse. look, this has not been about value creation but value destruction, and he's got his own reasons for it. elon musk is yet another complicated cat. he is brilliant. the work he's done around i would argue spacex and tesla has been really transformative. his work around twitter/x has been a giant dumpster fire, almost by design, and alienating the advertisers you're depending upon for the company. the contrast to guys like charlie munger who passed away this week who focused on stability and common sense and sort of value creation over time, this is the opposite of that, and this is not an enlightened super ego. this is a guy in a lot of trouble on stage, i think, just

dissembling a bit. >> there's also this -- it's fascinating to me because it's a sort of circular, i can't follow his logic right, he's going after the advertisers. i think "the new york times" has estimated they're going to lose $75 million in ad revenue at this point. he's going after the advertisers basically saying this is all on you, and when and if my company fails this is all going to be your fault. but to your point, a, this is the business model that you decided to take. and b, a lot of this was all stirred up by you and your policies and your tweets. i also think he keeps saying you can blackmail me or is it that they're holding him accountable for the comments that he made, and that's what you can do in a capitalist society. you can choose not to participate. you can choose not to advertise. >> consistent with free speech principles which the argument he makes. >> what's the great quote, some men just want to watch the world burn, and i think that completely applies to this scenario. everything is going up in flames.

>> quite literally he doesn't want the world to burn with regard to his work at tesla and the boring company and spacex. >> but with regard to twitter, with with regard to this particular tributary of his mind, giant waste of time for zb. >> including him. >> his top advertising executive, technically the head of the company who was brought over from nbc with much fanfare, this is her entire focus, was literally sitting in the audience right now or yesterday. i'm just trying to figure out if you're linda yak reno, what are you thinking right now? >> you're crying in your office. this is what you have to deal with. but i think also the reality is that she probably went backstage or, you know, as soon as the event ended and started making a lot of phone calls because certainly advertisers are not going to be reassured by, you know, the former head of the company, but the owner of the company basically telling them to -- you know, telling the world go screw yourselves. no, they need that money. they literally need that money. >> and it was interesting too to

see a week or two weeks ago when all of these advertising executives and high level folks basically came out and said, hey, linda, we really respect you. we think it's time for you to step down and sort of save face here, which was interesting to see them. it's also so interesting when you look at where the company is, and it continues to raise the question of how much longer is x viable, how much longer does this go on? >> that's the question i was thinking about yesterday. we all -- maybe just me, but i feel like we can all camp out there on x formerly known as twitter. >> only when we're on deadlines. >> only when we need, you know, a distraction. but i just think to the broader population t is increasingly not relevant to their lives, and if you're just in there and these advertisers are concerned about the, you know, all this content that's racist or antisemitic that they're getting bumped up next to. i don't know how long it's

relevant. >> when is that? >> what it was at one point, however flawed it was. >> stop blackmailing me with my own words. >> i hate it when that happens. >> thanks, guys, we appreciate it. we are very closely monitoring this fragile pause in fighting between israel and hamas. that last minute detail that came together. we're going to fill you in with more. and left out in the cold, migrants try to take shelter in chicago's brutal temperatures.

this morning the senate preparing for a new funding fight over aid to israel and ukraine. a vote could happen as early as next week. some progressive senate democrats keep pushing for conditions on aid to israel. others are warning against it, while republicans reject the idea. speaking of republicans, they say they'll only pass aid to ukraine if congress passes

tighter immigration laws. this morning the biden administration is ramping up the pressure releasing this map you see here to show how blue and red states have benefitted economically from helping ukraine. joining us now is senator angus king, an independent from maine. senator, good to have you with us this morning. let's start there on ukraine, if we could. senator murphy pretty skeptical that a deal could be reached certainly this week anyway. lindsey graham had warned that it doesn't have to be everything i want, he said, but it has to be major. how concerned are you this morning about that funding? >> well, i am concerned because it's really sort of illogical to connect border security with aid for ukraine. they're two very separate issues. ukraine is critical. to back away, to leave ukraine to the tender embrace of vladimir putin would be historic, and i mean historic mistake that would haunt this country for generations.

it would undermine our credibility around the world with our allies. it would certainly destabilize europe. it would open the door in eastern europe to putin's ambitions. it would be a huge mistake. now, having said all that, chris murphy and james lankford and others are working on something on the border and if it can be narrowed to the point where it does indeed increase border security, i think both sides might be able to come together on a principle like that. both -- people on both sides of the aisle believe in border security. this is not an immigration bill. this is talking about doing something about the unsustainable number of people that are coming to the border, mostly asylum seekers and how to manage that, how to manage the flow that the cartels are essentially sending to us i think is something that's worth working on. i don't like to see it tied to ukraine aid, however, but if that's what the republicans are

insisting upon, then we've got to make a good faith effort to try to find something that everybody can live with. >> in terms of that good faith effort, you say they might be able to come up with something, if they can come up with something. what is your sense of how close those negotiations are this morning? >> well, i've had discussions with both sides as recently as yesterday afternoon. my sense is that the issues are narrowing, but, you know, that remains to be seen, and you know, this is a tough sell on both sides. i mean, i've seen press releases on the right side or the right wing of the republican party saying don't do anything. you know, build the wall and all that kind of thing, so getting there, but i think -- i have a lot of confidence in chris murphy and james lankford, they're leading this. they're two very capable smart guys who know this issue inside and out, and i'm betting that they'll get somewhere. >> we'll be watching. netanyahu signed a letter to the president looking for details on

how the administration would guarantee that israel is properly mitigating civilian casualties in gaza. there's been a lot of talk about imposing conditions on u.s. aid to israel. are they necessary? >> well, i've done a lot of work on this and, in fact, have really thought long and hard about it myself. there are inherent conditions on military aid to anybody that's in u.s. law, title 22, and there are other sections of u.s. law that talk about you can't use u.s. aid for gross violations of human rights. so the question is whether something in addition to that is necessary. the administration is working very hard to try to moderate the bombing campaign. i think they've done a good job. the real question is israel listening, and that's really the difficulty. i don't know if conditioning the aid is the right answer, but i

think israel has to understand that they're losing the information war, and they have to be much more discreet and surgical in their war against hamas. finally, hamas is -- they are really bad people. what they did on october 7th was pure evil, and you know, you see these tunnels. think about that for a minute. they built these tunnels with all that concrete that could have been infrastructure for their people, the palestinian people in gaza. they don't care about the palestinian people. they want to exterminate israel, and israel's got to put them out of business. they've got to do it in such a way as to no unduly burden civilians. that's a principle of modern warfare. >> i do want to talk to you about this new bill that you're introducing today. specifically that would address in the hopes of obviously preventing another mass shooting like we just saw unfortunately in your state. it would limit, among other

thing, the number of rounds a gun magazine could hold, also ban certain devices that, you know, can convert conventional weapons. you have a fair amount of democratic support here. i'm curious, did you reach out to your fellow senator from maine, senator collins on this. >> we've reached out to a number of republican senators, they're reviewing it. they're looking at it. this is a new approach to this problem of assault weapons, and what we're really focusing on is the way it works. the way the gun actually works rather than what it looks like. and the heart of it, erica, is that those big curved magazines that you see that hold 15, 20, 40 bullets and our bill would essentially prohibit that. they would say that a gun that operated as these weapons do, as any rifle does, cannot have a detachable magazine, and must have an internal magazine with no more than ten bullets. that's it. that's -- we're focusing on the

lethality of these things, rather than what they look like, and the whole idea here is to save lives, and one of the problems in a mass shooting is if the shooter doesn't have to stop and reload, they're much more deadly. and, for example, the shooter in maine as i understand it had two magazines duct taped together so when one was empty, he could flip it over and then jam the new one in. that's what our law would prohibit, along with these devices like a bump stock that turns a gun that you have to pull the trigger each time it f fires into what amounts as a machine gun. that's what we're after. we are talking to republicans about it. to me this is purely consistent with banning machine guns 100 years ago or sawed off shot guns. these are particularly dangerous. useful only for killing people and we want to diminish that lethality. >> we will watch to see where that proposal goes. pree
