also on my mind, will taylor swift make it back in time by super bowl sunday to kiss her boyfriend travis kelce. now, i'm no betting woman, but i'm going to say with quite a bit of confidence that she will make it back in time. it does not take time travel, just a private jet, which she does own. and you know, she kind of has to make it back for that super bowl because why else would we watch it. am i right? >> wait, what? >> you're definitely right. that is the burning question phil has been bothering me about since 3:00 a.m. this morning. will taylor swift be able to kiss travis kelce. >> it's all i think about. >> all he thinks about. hanako, thank you very much. and "cnn this morning" continues right now. no immunity. >> donald trump's claims outright rejected by a federal appeals court. >> trump expected to appeal this decision. >> they narrowly trap the opinion to deal with one circumstance. >> it's a landmark decision that will be cited for many years.

stunning defeat for house republicans who failed to impeach secretary alejandro ma yor kas. >> the senate's immigration deal on the verge of collapse. >> divisions within the ranks making governing this chamber incredibly difficult. >> rather weaponize this issue than actually solve it. >> it's trump's party. they just want to blow everything up. >> we find the defendant guilty of involuntary manslaughter. >> mother of a michigan school shooter found guilty. >> game changer, not only in michigan but throughout the country. >> the people spoke. that was important. that's our system. it worked. ♪ good morning, everyone. it's top of the hour. i'm phil mattingly with poppy harlow in new york. thank you for joining us. we have brand new details this morning about a counterproposal from hamas for a potential hostage deal. the deal put together a three-phase plan lasting several months pushing for a full israeli troop withdrawal in gaza and delivery of humanitarian aid in exchange for the release of hostages still being held captive. but israeli official familiar

with the negotiations telling cnn, quote, there is no way tel aviv will agree to that. also this morning, anthony blinken is holding critical meetings with israeli prime minister benjamin netanyahu and key government officials there behind closed doors in tel aviv. blinken had earlier called the hamas response, quote, positive. we'll see where this goes. president biden took a slightly different take, calling this proposal, quote, a bit over the top. our jeremy diamond starts our coverage live from tel aviv. i mean the momentum is there. you have a proposal on the table. blinken having all these key meetings. but the ask, according to this reporting, may be too big for tel aviv to agree to. >> reporter: yeah, poppy. it's still clear that there are still major differences between where israel is and where hamas is over a potential cease fire, over these -- over the release of hostages. that's mainly because israel is still rejecting this notion of a permanent cease fire, where as hamas is very much looking for an end to this war all together as part of these hostage

negotiations. but if you dive into the details of these proposals, and particularly when you look at phase 1 that hamas is proposing, there are a lot of similarities between what their counterproposal is and where israel has been over the last week and a half. and that's because each phase here would last 45 days. in this first phase, you would see the release of women, children, the sick, the elderly in exchange for palestinian prisoners. cease fire with israeli forces withdrawing from key population centers. that is very similar to what israel had agreed to as part of this broad framework. but when you dive into phases 2 and 3, this is where the problems start to show up. that's because hamas wants to negotiate over a permanent cease fire. they want the completion of those talks in phase 2. the release of male hostages in exchange for palestinian prisoners and critically in phase 2 they also want to see the withdrawal of all israeli forces from the gaza strip. and that is where an israeli official today is drawing the

line, saying that there is no way that israel will agree to a cease fire. and the withdrawal of all forces as part of these hostage negotiations. now, the major question is whether or not these two sides can agree to a phase 1 deal here. and then continue talking, continue negotiating as we start to see a pause in the fighting, the release of hostages as outlined in that first phase of the agreement. there's no question that the ball is now very much in israel's court as well as in the united states' court. that's where we find secretary of state tony blinken in tel aviv today, meeting with top israeli officials. he met earlier today with the israeli prime minister, benjamin netanyahu. as we speak, he's meeting with the chief of staff of the israeli military. and he'll be meeting with the israeli president and other officials later in the day. but the ball is in israel's court. the question is how they will now respond to this latest counterproposal from hamas. >> keep us posted through the day as we learn more, jeremy. thank you very much for the reporting from tell avooe. also this morning, in a major blow to former president

trump, an appeals court said he does not have immunity from the federal charges against him plotting he charted to overturn the 2020 election. a very strongly worded opinion, three-person panel says, quote, trump's stance would collapse our system of separated powers by placing the president beyond the reach of all three branchs. now trump has until monday to file an appeal. let's turn now to cnn senior analyst elie honig. let's just start by walking through it because it was such a -- the scale of what was put into the actual opinion itself underscores just how strong it is. >> it's really remarkable, phil. this is why we go to law school. >> i didn't go to law school. >> some of us, poppy. >> because this is about how our government functions. so just to orient people, this is jack smith's federal election interference case based in washington, d.c. against donald trump relating to the 2020 election. so, let's look at the three main pillars of the argument and the

decision that we saw yesterday. first of all, donald trump argued that he has blanket immunity, that as president, nothing he did can be charged criminally. and the court we just saw this quote, rejected that very clearly. they said former president trump's stance would collapse our system of separated powers, collapse the system. that's a very dramatic refutation of that defense. the second argument that donald trump made is that, okay, if i don't have blanket immunity, i at least have immunity for things i did within the scope of my job as president. donald trump, of course, was president. he said, what i was doing when i was calling other state officials, when i was calling members of congress, i was acting within my official job as the president. and the court firmly rejected that. they said, no, you weren't. they said what you were doing was not only outside the scope but probably criminal. and the third argument that donald trump made that the court rejected was this sort of unusual creative argument that donald trump's team came up with that the only way a president or

former president can ever be indicted is if he is first impeached in the house of representatives. then convicted in the u.s. senate and only then can the president be prosecuted. the court of appeals said, no, way, that's apples and oranges. they have nothing to do with one another. a very firm rejection of all of donald trump's arguments. >> literally all of them. >> yeah. >> talk about what happens next. >> yeah. so really important. we are here. this decision came out of the court of appeals in the d.c. circuit. the district court, the trial court, they have been what we call stayed. meaning on pause since this appeals started back in december. now, the key date to keep in mind is this coming monday, february 12th. if nothing happens, then the case goes back to the trial court and they can get back on the game. however, what donald trump is likely to do is go up to the u.s. supreme court say we want you to take the case. we want you to keep everything else paused. so we're going to hear whether the u.s. supreme court is willing to stop this very quickly. if they are willing to stop this and take the case, that's going to push this trial date way

back. but if they say we're not taking the case, it will be back in the district court and we will see a trial before 2024 election. >> you dream about that? >> i don't know if it's nightmares. i dream about all this. >> that and the calendar. thank you, buddy. appreciate it. this morning, republicans are reeling after a day of dysfunction and defeat on capitol hill in a stunning and embarrassing loss. the house republicans failed to impeach the homeland security secretary alejandro mayorkas after three republicans broke rank. listen to the reaction on the floor of the house. >> on this vote, the ayes are 214 and the nays are 216. the resolution is not adopted. [ cheers and applause ]. >> meanwhile, over in the senate, republican infighting and pressure from donald trump has effectively killed the most significant bipartisan border security bill in decades. mitch mcconnell now admitting it doesn't stand a chance as the senate repairs to vote just a

couple hours from now. >> but wait, there's more. back in the house, republicans then failed to pass their own stand alone aid package for israel. also, we learned rnc chairwoman ronna mcdaniels is offering to step down in the middle of an election year as trump pushes to replace her and nevada's gop primary, which happened last night, nikki haley lost by more than 30 points, not to donald trump or anyone else, but to the option of none of these candidates. seriously. let's bring in cnn congressional correspondent lauren fox. lauren, i'm just trying to get a sense of what mike johnson, the speaker of the house never thought he had an easy path to begin with, but where does he go here? how did this happen? particularly on mayorkas. >> reporter: yeah. i think the mayorkas vote is worth paying attention to in part because this was such a historic moment. this is a moment they had been marching toward for several months. despite the fact that the votes were always going to be really close, you don't take a gamble

on something so significant as impeaching a cabinet secretary. this was going to be a moment where republicans could talk about the border. this was going to be a moment where they were going to be able to have some contrast with the biden administration and provide that contrast for their members on the campaign trail. but, there was a simple math problem. basically they thought one democrat was absent. turned out that democrat showed up just in time for this vote on impeachment in the house of representatives. al green wheeled in to the chamber. according to our colleagues who were witnessing this, had no shoes on for this vote. and certainly that caught republicans by surprise. they knew that they had three no-votes. that is obviously something that they just didn't have any more room for error. but, again, you got to count the votes. you have to know who is president. that includes the folks on the other side of the aisle. now, republicans are saying that they are going to bring this back up when their numbers, you know, come back. basically they're waiting for steve scalise, the majority leader to return to the capitol.

he is receiving cancer treatments and has been away. once that happens, they are adamant it will pass. it's an embarrassing moment but it's a moment that could have been avoided and comes paired with the fact that they were not able to pass that israel aid bill. they tried to pass it under suspension of the rules which means you need a large number of democratic votes earlier in the day democratic leadership made clear they were urging their members to vote against it, not because they're against the aid in principle but because they say this needs to be part of a larger package related to ukraine as well. so, obviously a lot of moving pieces here. but i think what it says is that mike johnson is still really new at this. >> yeah. as john avlon was pointing out a lot of failures in a condensed amount of time. what about on the senate side? they'll take up this immigration bill that mitch mcconnell, who supported it, said it's dead. what happens now? >> reporter: yeah. so they're going to have this procedural vote that includes the border security provision. that is going to fail.

and then we have new reporting that chuck schumer, the majority leader would then move to try and advance a bill that just includes security supplemental piece. so that means aid for ukraine, aid for israel, aid for the indo-pacific. that is expected to have a pathway forward. because republicans, despite the fact many of them wanted to see more border security, they still acknowledge that this ukraine aid is so essential. now, even if this can get through the united states senate, it's just important to keep in mind, where is it going in the house of representatives? mike johnson, again, has another huge question to deal with. >> lauren fox, thank you for all the reporting. also this, a stunning new report finds key bolts were missing on the boeing 737 max 9 plane that lost a door the middle of the flight. what else investigators discovered. and an historic ruling against the mother of the michigan school shooter. jennifer crumbley found guilty of manslaughter. the details of that verdict next.

♪ landmark verdict a jury convicted the mother of a school shooter on all four counts of involuntary manslaughter. michigan jury has unanimously convicted jennifer crumbley, the mother of ethan crumbley who killed four of his clas mates in 2021. >> this is so significant. this is the first time a parent of a school shooter has been held responsible for their child's actions. ethan's father james is facing the same charge. his trial begins in march. our jean casarez joins us live from pontiac michigan. it is a verdict that not only is significant there but really for the entire country, right? >> reporter: absolutely. you know, poppy, this community has been through so much. they have experienced a mass shooting. and all of the emotions that go through that. this jury is from this community. and they spoke loud and clear. an historic verdict.

>> we find the defendant guilty. >> reporter: in the manslaughter trial of jennifer crumbley, the mother of a teen who killed four students at a michigan high school in 2021. the jury unanimous in their verdict, after more than ten hours of deliberation. >> juror number 12, was that and is that your verdict -- >> yes. >> reporter: jennifer crumbley pleaded not guilty to four counts of involuntary manslaughter. one count for each student her son murdered. she faces a maximum of 15 years for each count which would run concurrent. ethan crumbley killed madison baldwin, tate mere, justin shilling and hana st. juliana at oxford high school using a gun his parents gave him. the case is a novel one, unprecedented in testing the limits of whether a parent of a mass shooter can be held accountable for the attack.

>> this case is a very dangerous one for parents out there. it just is. and it is one of the first of its kind. >> reporter: the jury forewoman said one detail stood out in deliberations. >> the thing that really hammered it home is that she was the last adult with the gun. >> reporter: the family of one of the victims reacting to the verdict just outside of the courtroom today. >> it was a long time coming, but it's definitely a step toward accountability. it's not really about winning or losing. it's about making it apparent that this has to stop. and society -- >> reporter: during the trial, prosecutors painted jennifer crumbley as grossly negligent, giving her son a gun and failing to get him the proper mental health treatment despite warning signs. >> the question about why jennifer crumbley didn't take one of these small, small actions, secure the gun, find out where the gun is, it looms

large in this courtroom. there is no one it looms larger for than the victims and the family members of those kids who were killed on that day. >> reporter: but the 45-year-old's lawyer argued her son's actions could not have been predicted. >> can every parent be responsible for everything their children do? especially when it's not foreseeable? and this clearly was not foreseeable to mrs. crumbley, because there's no one in the world, including mrs. crumbley, who would let a school shooting happen. >> reporter: scenes from the day of the shooting were shown in court while the jury heard from those who survived it. >> i texted my husband, i love you. active shooter. and then i started feeling blood dripping down my arm. >> reporter: jennifer crumbley took the stand earlier in the trial during the defense of the case. and appeared to shift some blame on to her husband.

>> who is responsible for storing the gun? >> my husband is. >> reporter: jennifer's husband, james crumbley, is scheduled to go to trial on the same charges in early march. he, too, has pleaded not guilty. >> jennifer crumbley will be sentenced on april 9th in this courthouse right behind me. under michigan law, it is not only allowed but it is encouraged to have victim impact statements. it will be an emotional day because the victims in this particular case, once again, those four students, the families that were gunned down by ethan crumbley in november of 2021. as far as james' trial, it is set on course at this moment for march 5th. we'll see, though, how that develops. >> we just showed all four of those victims. it is so important that people listen to what their families say in the victim impact. thank you very much, jean. politics, nikki haley losing in the nevada primary even though she was the only major

candidate on the ballot. >> not great. also the man, the myth, the legend of the map, john king will go to haley's home state of south carolina and take the pulse of the voters in that primary. that's next.

happened -- okay. what happened is what happened. and i believe trump is coming again. >> reporter: such trump is best no matter what sentiment is easy to find in south carolina. a big reason the former president is heavily favored in haley's home state. >> he's even more ready now. >> reporter: mark sanford is out of politics because he has a very different take on trump. sanford was the republican governor here before haley. then he won his old house seat back in 2013, but sanford lost the republican primary in 2018 because he criticized trump's spending and sometimes his tone. >> i would say, well, i'm for trump in this area but against him in these different areas. people don't want nuance. they want are you before or against him. >> sanford is in agreement when haley criticized trump for the chaos and deficit spending yet he expects a big trump win here. >> that which has traditionally worked in gop politics isn't so much working these days.

because they weren't playing because all the delegates are awarded thursday night in the caucuses. and trump has that pretty well wired. but it was a chance for her to get this symbolic see there are voters who want me and she lost to none of these candidates. that tells you again it's the same point. the party is -- this is trump's party now. and even though we're eight years into this, it hasn't sunk into some people. something will happen -- all these voters will say, never mind, we don't want donald trump. that's proof even though that's not for delegates. not a lot of people voted, but enough people went out to say, no, we're not going to give her a symbolic victory to say, look, people want me. >> literally none of the above. >> i hadn't thought through that. is that a common -- >> i think former governor sanford makes a very important point. >> super smart. >> those who lived through this. this is about globalization. this is about where is the north star? what do i tell my kids to study in school. there used to be a factory.

♪ welcome back. a startling finding from federal investigators a month after this terrifying moment that the door plug of a boeing 737 max 9 just blew out mid air during an alaska airlines flight. yesterday, the national transportation safety board released its preliminary report saying evidence indicates the four bolts meant to hold the

door plug in place didn't malfunction, they were actually missing all together at the time of the blow-out. the report included this photo. that was more than a month before the plane was delivered to alaska airlines. it shows where the hardware was missing while the plane was being worked on. it means that this aircraft flew for about two months with the bolts missing before the january 5th blow-out. the report did not assess cause or lay blame. those details will come in the full report after a later date. so let's talk about all of this with the chair of the ntsb for her first interview since this report was released. good morning. i'm so glad you're with us. >> good morning. >> if we don't know why they were missing, and this plane was flying for about two months without them, is it possible something like this could happen again? >> of course that's always possible. but that is -- this is the reason the ntsb exists to ensure this never happens again.

i do have confidence that these planes have been fully inspected by if faa and that they've been assured of safety, but of course something like this can happen again, which is why we are now digging in -- >> yeah. >> to boeing's quality insurance management and safety culture to make sure this doesn't happen again. >> couple things you said, when you say the fa faa has assuranc this didn't happen. this gets to how this happened. companies report a lot of this stuff. this is the faa administrator matt whitaker asked about who oversees the safeties of these planes all together. here is that exchange. >> seems to me that we can't rely on the manufacturers themselves to be their own watchdogs. is that something you would agree with? >> i certainly agree that the current system is not working because it's not delivering safe aircraft.

so we have to make some changes to that. >> do you agree there need to be changes? does the system need to change? >> i absolutely agree that it needs to change. there is no way that this plane should have been delivered with four safety critical bolts missing. there's a problem in the process. we're digging in. we're not just digging in to what's going on at boeing, but we're also digging in to faa's oversight of boeing as well. but i'm very encouraged by the administrator's comments. i think he's made some great choices and we'll see how this plays out going forward and in our investigation. >> is it clear to you and the agency who was supposed to put the bolts in? or when it didn't happen? >> yeah. so, at this point in the process some work was being done. once boeing received the fuselage, they noticed that some rivets in the frame forward of

the left door plug needed to be repaired. they called spirit in. in order to do those repairs, they had to remove the door plug. and in order to remove the door plug, they had to remove the bolts. and they weren't put back in. now, we have requested documentation on how this happened and in what stage of this process this occurred. so we can figure out what changes need to be made. but we're still waiting on that documentation, if it exists. >> yeah. if it exists. you need it to be able to get these answers. on that point of waiting for some of those answers and documents, the contractor for the fuselage, spirit aerosystems, not to be confused with spirit airlines and boeing both came out with these statements yesterday saying we're being transparent and cooperating with the investigation. do you share that assessment? >> yes, they are being very cooperative in the investigation, providing us information that we need.

we certainly hope that continues. this is not a new process for them as the ntsb conducts investigations. and we work together to find safety issues that can change in the future. but right now we're working together and hope that we can -- that continues going forward. >> jennifer, something else happened this week, just on monday, boeing sent this letter to staff that they found miss-drilled holes in the fuselages of about 50 737 planes. that compounded with this, with the previous max crashes, is there a quality control problem at boeing? >> i think there is a quality assurance problem, quality control problem. and that's exactly what we're digging in on right now. we want to understand their quality management systems, their safety culture, their safety management systems throughout the company to see where there are deficiencies, to

make sure there doesn't reoccur. if you have situations or deficiencies in manufacturing and production, that needs to be taken seriously and corrected. >> prior to this report, jennifer, you told cnn you would have, quote no, problem flying on a max 9, quote tomorrow. now that the report is out, knowing what >> they have been inspected. thoroughly, i believe, by faa along with united and alaska. i will say, working with alaska on this investigation has been very cooperative. they have taken this very seriously, had serious safety concerns. so i would have no problem tomorrow taking a flight on a max 9. >> this has been immensely helpful to hear from you. please come back when the full report is ready. thank you. >> thank you.

this morning, there are seismic changes underway in the world of sports media. three of the biggest companies in sports broadcasting are partnering up to create a giant sports streaming platform. >> this is going to offer consumers access to a big range of sporting events including from the nfl, major league baseball, nhl. this will launch in the fall.

i was like, this is great in terms of fighting what streaming has done to cable television by collaborating together. what is the up side here for the companies but also for consumers? >> for the companies, there's very little risk. they will get the same dollars that they get from distributors on cable for this venture. going into it, it's likely profitable. the down side is the pricing. for something like this, you are probably going to have to charge around $45 or $50. people are paying around $70 if you get youtube tv. it's not that much cheaper that you will pull people out of the cable bundle. what these executives are hoping is that they will capture more dollars from people who aren't paying for cable. the down side for the consumer is that we are missing two major sports players. cbs is not involved. cbs has the super bowl, they have major rights.

comcast nbc is not involved. you get a huge sampling of sports, but you will miss some. you have to make the decision about whether it's worth paying for this if you still pay for cable. with cable, you get everything. >> the two things that came to mind was, they are creating cable, and the second thing was that these leagues and teams, they all have individual contracts with cable entities. how does that work? do they all shift those over into this new conglomerate? how does that happen? >> if you are a league, you are going to have the same rights and partnerships with the networks. that sddoesn't change. they have to have conversations to make sure they are okay with this. same for the distributors. we get our cable packages through comcast orworks have to conversations with the distributors. they are hoping they can get this selt settled by the end of year. i'm curious if they can get this

through. they are betting they will get the same money from everybody from the distributors, the leagues, and it will be profitable soon. >> any reporting on why cbs and nbc didn't join and if they were approached? >> it's a very good question. i'm sure there were conversations about whether or not they are brought in. these companies are all trying to figure out whether or not they merge with each other. right now, there's a lot of bigger questions outside of just sports that could be tainting whether or not they join this particular venture. another big thing to consider is that whether or not some of the companies can merge is going to be dependent on regulatory approval from the bigger macro perspective. they don't see regulators getting involved in the sports thing. i think it might impact the smaller conversations around this streaming service. >> since we have you, there was attention yesterday -- tucker carlson is in moscow. sat for an interview with vladimir putin. i'm for people interer viewing .

there are questions regarding his feelings about authoritarians. >> this is what his playbook is. he went to hungary and interview orban. he has done sit-downs with former president trump who i wouldn't say is necessarily an a a autocrat but he is populist. now that he struck out on his own and he is in digital doing videos, he has the latitude to interview whoever he wants. >> it will be interesting. in his preview tease video, the idea that western journalists are not asking for or wanting a sit-down, including our own with vladimir putin, is the most absurd thing. >> western journalists are imprisoned for doing their job. >> that's a great point. i hope he asks about

gershkovich. >> we appreciate you. thank you. >> thank you. cor"cnn this morning" contis now. >> number 60, resolution 863. resolution impeaching alejandro mayorkas. >> yea 214, nay 216. the resolution is not adopted. >> you want to fix the border or do you want to keep the border a mess in order to help donald trump? >> this is where we are. good morning. so glad you are joining us. a day of dysfunction for republicans. they failed to impeach the homeland security secretary alejandro mayorkas and appeared to kill the border deal they negotiated. the party leader might resign. what is next on capitol hill? hamas responding to the proposal for a cease-fire in gaza. what it wants in exchange for releasing the hostages and why israel is rejecting it, at l
