6:01 am
weather outside may be starting to get a little frightful, but the vibe on a holiday cruise ship is definitely delightful. you're welcome john. we'll chat with two passengers about their experience on the first ever hallmark christmas themed cruises. yeah it's happening already before thanksgiving even is here. i'm sarah with john berman and kate bolduan. this is cnn news central >> happening now. quite a moment on capitol hill. we are standing by to see senators. he is president elect trump's pick to be defense secretary. and he will be there as this morning, new details are emerging from a police report about an alleged sexual assault by pete hegseth. pete hegseth has denied the account and he was never charged with a crime. but the details in this report this morning they are graphic and they are
6:02 am
disturbing. sara murray is here with the latest on this. good morning sara. >> good morning john. yeah. what this police report does, which we got through a public records request, is really lays out the competing narratives of what happened that evening in october 2017, in california surrounding this republican women's conference. now, the woman in this account is referred to in the police report as jane doe. she said that pete hegseth was giving off a creeper vibe during the conference she goes on to say that she ended up in a strange hotel room, and that he took her phone from her hands and that he blocked the door with his body, and she remembered saying no a lot. now there was a lot she couldn't recall. she suggested that something may have been slipped in her drink, but there were other eyewitness accounts of people who said they saw her, and she didn't seem to be intoxicated. she seemed to have her faculties about her. there were also conflicting eyewitness accounts and pete hegseth had earlier in the evening at a hotel bar you know, in one account, a woman says that jane doe appeared to
6:03 am
sort of intercept pete hegseth when he was hitting on another woman and sort of be the crotch blocker. another eyewitness said it appeared that jane doe and another woman were flirting with hegseth eventually, she did decide that she wanted to seek medical attention. a couple days later, she got a rape kit, and the nurse is the one who reported this alleged sexual assault to authorities. now, this is all very different from pete hegseth account he said that they engaged in an evening of consensual sex together. he said she came to his hotel room and he found it sort of odd that she stuck around. but the two of them became intimate and he told authorities there was always conversation, there was always consensual conduct, he said he and jane doe discussed the fact that she was married, and that she would tell her husband she'd someone else's room, and he said she showed early signs of regret. that there was any sexual misconduct here. his attorney, timothy parlatore, told me this police report confirms what i've said all along, that the incident was fully
6:04 am
the allegations to be false, which is why no charges were filed. we should note the police report does not say that the allegations were false and we don't have the full understanding of why no charges were filed in this case. there's additional evidence. there's surveillance video, there's a memo from the district attorney that they are not planning on releasing publicly that could shed light on this decision not to file charges. now, the jane doe, in this case, the woman involved, she declined to comment last week to cnn. when cnn approached her to try to discuss this story with her, she broke down in tears john. >> all right. sara murray thanks so much for explaining this. all so clearly. appreciate your reporting on this kate. thanks, john. >> joining us right now to talk much more about this is cnn anchor and chief political correspondent dana bash. dana, it's good to see you on top of this new detail. some of the people who have this new detail now with this reporting are the senators on capitol hill that are going to be in charge of deciding whether or not pete hegseth gets confirmed and jd vance is going to be with him
6:05 am
in these meetings when they go in to sit with these senators and they could be slightly different with these new questions coming out. i mean, what's not clear at all because the process does need to continue, is what how this any of this impacts his confirmation. but what are you hearing foremost from let's start with the trump transition. >> they just released a statement from the press secretary who will be the press secretary in the trump white house karoline leavitt effectively saying, despite what was released last night, that reporting excellent reporting that sarah just gave us there the president elect is standing by pete hegseth. >> that's the gist of it. he didn't use those words, but he said that he still believes that hegseth is the right person to lead the department of defense. so not surprisingly, he is standing by
6:06 am
this my understanding in talking to people who are familiar with this, that yes, the trump transition was definitely surprised when these allegations first came out and that the police report is providing a lot more detail to the public but apparently this detail is was given to the trump transition by hegseth and his and his attorney. but the very important question that you ask is, how is this going to land in the u.s. senate and in particular, where he's going to start which is the senate armed services committee? they're the ones who have to first confirm him. and the answer is we don't know the answer i have talked to some senators who are part of the process, who say that they genuinely want to talk to him so these meetings today are going to be very important. yes there's a police report. we don't know why all the details about why these charges
6:07 am
weren't formally filed and at this point, what the trump transition is banking on is that it is a he said, she said situation. and they are going to do everything in their power to convince enough republicans on the armed services committee and in the broader senate that what he is saying should be taken to the bank. it is the beginning of this process though, kate. >> it does seem and that whereas with other nominees and we've seen over so many years that these meetings are not pro forma, that he's having whereas in other circumstances we as we've seen so many times, they do seem, especially when it's a candidate the nominee of the same party so today does seem an important one in terms of nominees trump's nominees. then there's also matt gaetz. i mean, democrats on judiciary on the judiciary committee have questions republicans on judiciary have questions. the democratic senator sheldon whitehouse, he was on cnn last
6:08 am
night with anderson, and he raised an interesting point as he called for both the house ethics report and the doj files to be handed over. let me play this he's going to be overseeing the doj and the fbi. >> so what they have on him in house is highly relevant so i think the real issue here is how low the republicans want to go, because this is going to keep coming out. this isn't the last piece of news. the information in the house ethics files and in the doj report came in from witnesses who are available to us. and we're going to keep digging witnesses who are available to us says the senator. >> right, dana? i mean, what happens now that republicans on the house ethics have voted to block the gaetz report that he makes and yes, so far we have not seen any evidence that the republicans, as you said on that ethics committee, are going to allow that report, which they have spent a lot of
6:09 am
time on, to become public they're going to have another vote in early december. >> it doesn't seem like that's going to change judiciary committee, which is going to be vetting matt gaetz they are going to be looking at some of as much of the evidence that the house ethics committee looked at as they can and i spoke to a republican senator, kevin cramer, who is a big ally of donald trump and he said similar things to what we just heard from that democrat sheldon whitehouse. listen report or not, it will certainly be reported. >> if not released, it will be repeated by the senate judiciary committee. because all of those same witnesses, to your point that are coming out publicly and many more and much more evidence will be just as available to senate judiciary investigators. and, of course, they have subpoena power. so i think we just have to let this
6:10 am
process play out. and and we'll get to let this process play out. so one way or another, i think the the information or not, will will at least come to the, the committee members first and then to the rest of the senators. >> if in fact, it comes to a vote on the floor one way or another, they're going to get the information uh, the other thing i think we can't leave unsaid is that unlike unlike pete hegseth and other of donald trump's nominees matt gaetz is a very known quantity on capitol hill with his former colleagues in the house and those across the capitol and the senate. >> and he spent a lot of time making enemies and part of what you are seeing with republicans being very open related to their personal animus against matt gaetz because of his behavior in the
6:11 am
past. we can't let let that go because that's a big part of this story here. >> absolutely right. it's great to see you, dana. thanks for coming in. you too. sarah. >> all right. breaking overnight. russia escalates its strikes on ukraine and questions right now on the type of missiles that were actually launched overnight. and it could be one that's never been used in this world war. so far. and growing calls for accountability. how did a father who called 911 because a masked intruder was in his home, end up being shot and killed by a las vegas police officer? the family's attorney joins us in just a bit and the tallest animal in the world in trouble. i love giraffes. the new proposal from the united states to try and protect them were being held hostage. >> i was being led across the embassy compound. people were running up to me shouting death to america! >> the iran hostage crisis. how

6:17 am
you learning about all of this >> sarah, we've come back out now. the sirens have finished. but it's a kyiv city. significantly more anxious after the u.s. embassy made a snap closure yesterday, citing the threat of an aerial assault. they're open again today, but this apparent icbm assault, president vladimir zelenskyy saying that the missile they saw had the characteristics, the altitude, the speed of an intercontinenta l ballistic missile. it seems to have hit the dnipro, a major industrial city, suggesting that industrial plant was hit there. and the images that have emerged from there show extraordinarily multiple different projectiles coming down from the sky. it seems from one particular point, some experts suggesting that, consistent with a more complex type of ballistic missile, whatever it turns out, the terminology you want to use for what this was, whether it's based on its capability or how far it could fly it's clear this is a new weapon and it's clear that russia has wanted to see how that would make ukrainians and the west feel. it's all part of an escalatory ladder. we've seen over the
6:18 am
past 3 or 4 days begun on sunday, when president joe biden told the ukrainians they could finally have permission to fire u.s. supplied atacms missiles longer range into russia to hit targets there. we knew there would be a moscow response it seems like this use of a new weapon, be it moderate ballistic range or intercontinental is designed to show that there are things in russia's arsenal it can reach to which can still terrify ukrainians as you said there, these normally you might think would carry a nuclear payload. no suggestion of that at all today, but i think it's about reminding people of that subtext of non-conventional weapons whilst also showing that russia can deliver massive payloads of delivery times and hit targets across ukraine in a matter of minutes. that's why i think there's heightened anxiety here in kyiv, as we saw ourselves in the recent trip to a bomb shelter. the us embassy. maybe they knew something about this when they closed yesterday. we simply don't know other nato members joined them in their snap closures. they're
6:19 am
open again today, but i think we wake this morning to a ukraine very nervous about what else may be in russia's arsenal and a fast paced series of events here. not only have we seen a european power, germany ring, the kremlin held vladimir putin to talk diplomacy last week. we've had this biden development with the atacms and just now the british ministry of defense suggesting they have not seen the front lines as unstable since the first days of the war. a very rare, stark assessment from a western ally of how badly, frankly, ukraine is doing on the front. back to you. >> it is terrifying those pictures of those missiles coming down so fast and so many the fury that we're seeing there and the fear growing by the hour. thank you so much nick paton walsh, for being there. please make sure you and your crew are as safe as possible. kate. yeah. >> thank you. joining us right now is cnn anchor and chief, national security analyst jim sciutto. jim, let's talk first about everything that npr is
6:20 am
just talking about. i mean what if this was an icbm in regardless of it just the direction this is all headed? i mean, what do you think of this? what could be a new move by russia in the first and could be a first in this 33 month war? >> well, first of all, what it is if western officials are saying it was not an icbm. i mean, the u.s. has capability to identify any rocket or missile launch around the globe the moment it happens. we have satellites at geostationary orbit many thousands of miles up that are america's early nuclear early warning system. and they're designed to do this. so they could spot them. they know what their trajectory is, their speed, size, payload et cetera. so if the u.s. is not seeing this as an icbm, i think we should we should believe that. now, that doesn't mean that it's that it's not a significant attack. and russia has repeatedly done this right, introduced new weapons, hypersonics, et cetera. glide bombs, drones, et cetera. to scare the heck out of ukraine. the other piece i
6:21 am
would add is if it is a longer range missile, what's significant about that beyond ukraine right, is that a russian icbm launch, given its range and size, would threaten not just ukraine. it would potentially threaten europe or the u.s., right? depending on where it's going. in other words u.s. off to say, we got to watch this one to make sure it's not coming towards us. so it's significant on a number of fronts. >> also happening. and you've been doing some new reporting on this so i want to get to it is kind of a debate over was it an accident or was it sabotage? and this has to do with two undersea internet cables in the baltic sea. they were cut sunday. one cable between lithuania and sweden, one cable between finland and germany. germany's defense minister said that his quote was nobody believes that these cables were accidentally severed but you have some new reporting on this as well. and there seems to be still an open question. accident versus sabotage.
6:22 am
>> so let's go back a little bit. a couple of months ago, i had a story out about how closely the u.s. was watching russia for exactly this threat. russia has a highly secretive military unit designed expressly to monitor map survey underwater cables and possibly attack them. they have surface ships, they have submarines, they have naval naval drones. and in september, i had a story that the u.s. believed russia's calculus on ordering such an attack on undersea cables had changed. changed, meaning they were more likely to order such an attack, and the u.s. had noticed increased activity by this highly secretive unit. in this space. right. watching these cables and hovering above them. so that's the threat environment. so then this happened so i go to my sources and i say, what did you see there and what they say at this point the u.s. intelligence assessment is that
6:23 am
these particular i don't want to call them strikes. but but you know, cable cutting was the result was a result of an anchor drag dragging an anchor, a ship dragging its anchor unintentionally over those cables. and causing that damage. now intelligence is a it's not an exact art. this is the assessment today. and my understanding is that the u.s. has not established a connection between that ship and entities or nations that would order such an attack. doesn't mean that they won't at some point establish a connection. but at this point they don't have the goods to establish that connection. and that's why they're saying, and, you know, i spoke to multiple officials that the u.s. assessment at this point was that it's not intentional. listen, clearly there's a disagreement because some european officials who are closer to this issue, frankly, it took place in europe, are
6:24 am
not convinced that's the case. and the u.s. assessment could change. but at least at this point, they haven't made that hard tie yet. they haven't made that hard connection yet. >> i just i find this like what they're calling it part of hybrid warfare, but just kind of this space fascinating. and terrifying and kind of how quickly and dangerous this game if you want to call it that, can become especially with your great reporting that there's an entire unit in the russian military focused on this. i mean, it's something that we haven't definitely have not heard the last of yet. jim, it's great to see you go to that point kate. >> yeah. it's not just russia that's active in this space. china is have done similar kind of surveys around possibility the threat of cutting cables to to disable taiwan notably, this ship involved in this anchor drag was a chinese ship it's the beginning of, you know, quite a quite a story.
6:25 am
>> it's the beginning of let's see where this where this heads next. jim. great reporting. thanks, buddy. john. jim's book, the rise of great powers is great on these subjects. >> all right. this morning, new video of the moments a father was shot and killed by police after he called for help and quote, i feel like bin laden. new details on the secret recording that helped fbi agents foil a bomb plot at the new york stock exchange the ups store wants to make this the best holiday season ever no matter how you celebrate. >> we're the packet. ship it, guarantee it store the extra pair of hands, store the. it has to get there in one piece store. we're the one. stop right around the corner be unstoppable every way you holiday store visit the ups off packing today. >> this is the carry on closet. the suitcase with a one of a kind closet system that keeps you organized anywhere. pack

6:30 am
all the pictures up on the wall here. zack what have a lot of them have in common well, they're all kind of made for tv. >> it's like a casting call, and you tend to think of fox news. and obviously there's hegseth who could go from, you know, being a weekend anchor at fox news to running the largest or you know, most powerful military in the world with more than 2 million service members. but that's something that kind of extends beyond fox. i mean, think about dr. oz he's the he had started out as the tv doctor on oprah. he's, of course, a surgeon. then he had his own tv show before he ran for senate. most recently, he's been selling, you know, some herbal, some some his alternative medicines online. and now he could be in charge of health insurance for more than 160 million americans. that's almost a third of the country people who get medicare, people who get medicaid. that's a
6:31 am
who's never been an administration before. and it keeps going. i mean, tulsi gabbard, i looked yesterday. she does have behind, you know, on her resume. she's been on fox news, literally hundreds of times in the past couple of years. she could be the nation's top spy in charge of, you know, the cia and all these, the nsa, all these other agencies. robert f. kennedy jr.. does not have that same relationship with fox news that the others do. but he did write a bestselling book attacking anthony fauci and bill gates and alleging all of these conspiracy theories about the u.s. health system that he could now effectively be running mike huckabee he does not have a fox news show. he's on a, you know a christian network. but you know, this is a theme that he keeps coming back to with all of these picks dan bongino may be the guy to run the secret service, right? you know, very critical. former secret service agent, very critical. had a secret service or had had a fox news show, but
6:32 am
now he's on this um, you know, has a podcast and it shows that this sort of the, the web is getting wider than fox news into this kind of larger ecosystem of further right wing media that we're seeing. all right, zack wolf, great to see you. >> thank you so much for sharing your reporting on all this. so a phrase i only learned for the first time this morning gate lice. that's people who board with the wrong group at the airport. kate bolduan apparently included this morning one of the biggest airlines beginning a high tech crackdown. so kate beware super size. >> the celebration of america's favorite holiday spend thanksgiving morning with cnn with live coverage of parades around the country. john berman and erica hill host cnn thanksgiving in america live next thursday at 8:00 on cnn. >> your shipping manager left to find themself leaving. >> you lost.

helps planes take off any faster, but it does just stifle harmless rebellion. >> sara. yes, it does. maybe. thank you very much, kate. all right. developing now. outrage after a father called 911 for help in las vegas. but he ended up being the one that police shot and killed. what you're going to see is disturbing. this is body cam video for you now. it is from las vegas. police officer alexander bookman camera investigators say he responded to brandon durham home last week after durham called to report an intruder who was wearing a red hoodie and face mask inside his home. officer bookman found durham and a woman. it turned out that durham knew alejandra boudreaux wrestling over a knife. you hear the screaming there? the officer telling them to drop the knife. officer bookman then fired, hitting bookman and sending him and his attacker to the ground. then the body camera footage shows bookman, which we are not showing you shooting durham five more times. you heard that
6:40 am
gunfire go off. durham died at the scene. the officer's attorney says his client didn't violate the law. but durham's family and their attorney are now demanding answers and an arrest warrant for that officer. by the way, durham's teen daughter had to listen to that horrifying scene she was in her bedroom hiding, hugging her dog and afraid for her life assistance with the home invasion. >> my father always feared the police, even with that fear he asked me to call the police and when i grabbed my phone and i handed it to him, that was the last time i saw my father alive. >> the woman who broke in boudreaux faces multiple charges. she told police she intended for them to shoot and kill her, not durham. the family's attorney, lee merritt is joining us now. my god these
6:41 am
details are beyond disturbing, especially hearing from his daughter what did you see? we have looked at so many cases. what did you see when you body camera video that is not only poorly trained, but they almost seem trained to make the wrong decision here. >> we know that officers in las vegas metro like officers, all around the country, they're trained to make an assessment about the situation that deadly force when confronted with deadly force themselves. and in this situation there's no argument that the that officer alexander bookman was in danger or that he was helping to save life. instead, he was abusing his power in a way that has really devastated this family and this community have the police given you any explanation, and do you have any trust that they will look at this very closely, that they
6:42 am
will, you know really consider whether or not charges need to be filed, especially in that their policies also mandate that the officer ceases firing once the deadly threat is no longer present haven't been given any real reassurance that las vegas metro pd will handle this correctly. unlike many of the the the jurisdictions throughout the country, las vegas metro pd investigates themselves. in other words, there is no one there to supervise what they've done. the investigator who will determine whether or not alexander bookman committed a crime is from the las vegas metro police department one of his colleagues, i and the decision whether or not he'll be terminated is in an internal affairs decision this is the least accountable police department that i've come across in my career as a civil rights attorney. >> they have been looked at and have been scrutinized by the justice department as well. i want to ask you about mr. durham and the woman that he
6:43 am
was in some sort of relationship with. she told police she wanted to die. she attacked durham she was wearing the hoodie and the face mask she broke into the home, wielded a knife how much of the blame did the family put on her for what ended up happening she bears an enormous amount of the blame for this incident being instigated obviously, she is the intruder uh, we're learning more information as the weeks go on, but we know that there was a previous relationship that law enforcement even possibly officer bookman, had been called to the scene before. >> so they would have been familiar with the actors. that makes this ten times worse, because not only did they receive a description of the intruder that night, someone wearing a ski mask, someone wearing a hoodie, uh, and not only did they have a description of uh, brandon himself mr. durham himself, but it seems that the law enforcement officers who responded to the scene that night were already familiar with these actors, and that makes the the firing on the
6:44 am
homeowner in their home when they made a 911 call that much less tolerable. >> i cannot help but go back to durham's 15 year old daughter is she being given help? i mean, what she experienced is too much to bear for anyone. she is 15. is she getting help and and how is she getting through this it was less than a week ago that she was an earshot away in the hallway that the officer tested in the video and the body cam video before slaying her father this is going to be very difficult for her. >> they have not yet had made a decision about mr. durham's final resting place. uh, obviously this case has garnered national, if not international attention and so in her face has been circulated throughout media as she makes, uh, a desperate cry for justice. just this past friday she is being plugged in with mental health resources.
6:45 am
unfortunately she's become a part of a community of people who have endured this kind of trauma. we know that we live in the deadliest police culture in the industrialized world. we see these kind of shootings about three times a day in this country. so there's a community of people and a process in place to help her process this grief. but one way we can deal with it is by ensuring that officer alexander bookman is held accountable. >> lee merritt, thank you so much for taking the time to walk through that extremely disturbing case for us. i really appreciate you coming on thank you all right. if you have been to the airport lately, there is a very good chance you have stood in front of a kiosk to help you speed through security and get on board, or been annoyed by those who are passing you who do that. it works by scanning your so-called excuse me biometrics. in other words, taking a good hard look at your facial and body features to make sure it's you and they're operated by a company called clear. it's ceo karen becker tells me
