tha' altman has talked about a personal donation of $1 million. ken griffin of citadel hedge fund is also donating $1 million. and so we're going to see, i think, a lot of money coming into this inauguration. the last time he was sworn in, he raised a record. at the time, it was $107 million, or just slightly below that, far more than than joe biden raised when he was inaugurated. instantly with code tv. i could have told you that. i could that was about 62, $63 million. have told her that. stop! and you saw big companies step luther. never too much new up to help him. but i really year's day at eight on cnn. think that that people are very >> closed captioning brought to interested in having his air. you and and one of the things that's striking to me this by book.com. >> if you or a loved one have time as well is that, you know, mesothelioma, we'll send you a free book to answer questions you may have. call now and the more you donate, the more access you're going to get at the festivities. folks are we'll come to you. >> 808 two one 4000. going to be able to attend candlelit dinners. if they donate at a high enough level, go to receptions with cabinet

members. so it's a real opportunity to get in on the >> the suspect in a brutal new ground and make sure that york subway murder has just been arraigned. what we're donald trump knows who you are, learning about the man now and make sure that he knows charged. what we're learning about your issues. erica, it's about the victim of this interesting in in many ways, it's an extension of the shocking crime. campaign, right? because we see >> plus, american airlines what happens with big donors, flights resume after a certainly after someone is technical issue led to a nationwide ground stop. but elected and the types of access what caused the glitch? and is they get or even perhaps it still impacting travelers? appointments. and now we see it here with what is looking to be and canada, greenland and the a bit of a big cash cow when it panama canal. american comes to inaugurations. they're territorial expansion seems to be on the mind of president not cheap, but a lot of money, elect donald trump. so what's fredricka. appreciate it. thank behind all this? we'll take a closer look. and we're you. you're welcome. danny. following these major >> meantime, the president developing stories and many elect is announcing more major more, all coming in right here policy shifts for the white to cnn news central. house as he prepares to take office. trump posting to his >> this truth social account just this morning that he will, quote, is cnn breaking news. direct the justice department to vigorously pursue the death >> and we do begin with the penalty. it comes just a day breaking news. i'm erica hill, along with danny freeman in new after president biden commuted the sentences of nearly all of york. the suspect, who the federal death row inmates, allegedly set a sleeping woman on fire on the new york subway. 37 in total, something trump said makes no sense. for more discharged from a hospital and on this, joining us now is has been arraigned. >> police say the man accused in the horrific burning death axios senior contributor is a 33 year old undocumented margaret talev. margaret, i want to start here on this issue of the death penalty in

immigrant from guatemala, 2020. biden campaigned on this on being against the federal knowing he was likely homeless and has been living in the u.s. death penalty and vowed to stop using it. we know it, but now illegally for years. cnn's gloria pazmino joins us now president elect trump is from new york. gloria, you have leaning into it. what do you some new reporting on the suspect. please tell us what make of his new threat here? you're learning. well, danny, i do think that >> yeah. danny. erica, we were just in the last few minutes, we're going to see a lot of finally getting some efforts by the incoming confirmation that the suspect in this case has been president to reverse or blunt arraigned. he was just or turn around policies of the presented in front of a judge outgoing biden administration, in brooklyn criminal court. in this case. to your point, we saw biden's own views on the sebastian zapeta-calil 33 years old, accused of setting fire to death penalty change over the a woman who was sleeping inside years from his time in the of a subway car on sunday. now senate when he actually he is facing three charges. expanded, um, uh, death penalty i'm looking at the complaint. right now, he's facing murder in the first and second degree, eligible crimes to his current as well as arson. now, this is stance. and biden's decision been a little bit of a delay coming right under the since sunday, when he was first wire. like this. um, that arrested following the incident, we learned just a few converted back to life in prison, took the death penalty hours ago that the suspect was off the table for nearly all of actually hospitalized overnight. we don't know the details of what led to that those federal death row inmates. uh, what? it what it hospitalization just yet, but

in the last few minutes, we've does immediately is it makes it learned that he has now been much harder for president elect trump to do what he's talking presented in front of a judge about doing, at least in the and he has been remanded back case of these folks who have, uh, you know, in various ranges into custody. so no bail been they're on death row or hearing, nothing about whether or not he entered a plea yet, in prison for the last three likely because he has to appear decades in some cases. so but at supreme criminal court trump, uh, you know, can't he because these are felony cannot undo what biden has done charges. so he is going to be in the case of those 37. but he remanded back into custody and is expected to appear back in can, um, proceed with his own court next friday. so we approach toward federal death are getting some details about what this complaint says. i row enforcement going forward. will read through it as soon as but biden's action commutations like that are not i can, but this is happening just at a moment where there reversible. can i just ask you on that? i mean, just to pull has been so much focus about that thread a little bit more, the safety of the transit what does that actually look like? i mean, if to make good system here in new york city. on this promise that president-elect trump is these two people, apparently making, i mean, what does a the suspect and victim, both more aggressive doj on the believed to be homeless. the death penalty look like? does it suspect also entered the united just mean pursuing maybe more, states illegally in 2018. he was deported shortly after pursuing the death penalty, more in cases coming forward? that. but then he reentered the united states. that's according it it could be both a

to customs and border patrol, combination of pursuing it and who shared that information then actually using it. um, you with us. we also know that he know, as we were just talking reentered the country and ended about these inmates largely up here in new york city, where in the last few months he's were on death row for decades, been in and out of several but biden had placed a moratorium on the use of the homeless shelters. now, police federal death penalty. and and officials believe the woman in this case, the victim, was also his actions here in the homeless. she was likely taking final weeks makes that permanent for this group. but shelter from the cold while she was sleeping inside that subway it doesn't apply going forward. car. one of the things that the and president-elect trump can use the law as it exists, and suspect had on him when they apprehended him was the lighter he can enforce the law. and that police officials say he it's possible that his used to set fire to her. now, justice department, um, you the suspect was arrested after know, courts agree, can be more a remarkable amount of police aggressive in the way they pursue some of these cases work, as well as the images margaret, i want to switch gears for a moment to talk about one of the other big that you're seeing now, they were captured by surveillance topics that we've been seeing cameras installed inside of coming from president elect those subway cars. and it was trump. he's continuing to push this idea of the u.s. actually three high school aged reclaiming the panama canal. new yorkers who were riding the panama's president has now same train line that spotted responded. i want you to take a him and reported him to police, listen. who were able to move in and >> to this. >> that is a manifestation of

make the arrest. now, i do want gross ignorance of history. to mention that since the >> so all those speculations and all that range of pandemic, there has been an eventualities that are not incredible focus on the safety going to happen, well, i leave of the transit system, and them there as totally irrelevant issues and crime has actually decreased. in fact, 10% decrease since may, when governor kathy hochul quite bordering on historical incoherence with what the panama canal has been, is and announced a brand new safety will be so president elect plan and overall, a 42% trump then posted on social decrease since january of 2021 media saying, quote, we'll see right after the pandemic. but still, these high profile about that. >> i don't think anyone incidents that happened from necessarily had this on their bingo card for the end of the time to time returned the focus year topic we'd be discussing, to the transit system and whether or not people feel like but is president-elect trump it is safe to ride it and essentially threatening panama? here? uh, he is, but it's more concern about these two really complicated than it seems on complicated, long standing the surface. like so many of these things. and this is not issues homelessness, mental illness and public safety on the only kind of chess piece on the public transit system here the foreign policy board that in new york city. so we will we're seeing. uh, the see what the suspect says when president elect. um, look at he appears in court, expected rearranging. of course, again next friday, he will there's he's renewed his call for the u.s. to be able to buy likely enter a plea, but for now, he is back in the custody greenland from denmark, which of the corrections department to await that next court is complicated because appearance. danny. gloria. greenland actually has home

>> gloria, really appreciate rule. in any case, you look at it. thank you. we are also these two things together and you say, is he really serious? following developments in another high profile case here does donald trump, who has said in new york city, the murder of that the u.s. should kind of the united health care ceo. earlier this month. mayor eric dial back a little bit from adams office is now pushing foreign policy engagements and back after the suspect's focus more on the needs at home? is he really talking attorney criticized the mayor about trying to grab back the in court for the mayor's public comments about the case and for joining. what? for panama canal and buy greenland? joining police and what the and the short answer is it's attorney called a staged perp impossible to legally see how walk. the attorney also raising he could take back the panama concerns about her client canal. panama has had control getting a fair trial. that's all coming up during fully of the panama canal since yesterday's arraignment. well, today, a spokesperson for mayor the 1990s, and greenland is not adams releasing a statement for sale. so the short answer which says in part, quote, critics can say all they want, to both of these seems to be but showing up to support our law enforcement and sending the no. but the question is why is message to new yorkers that he talking about it? and i think that's where this really violence and vitriol have no place in our city, is who mayor gets interesting, danny. on the eric adams is to his core. one hand, obviously he is joining me now to discuss legal trying to maneuver, um, better analyst and trial attorney mercedes cohen. good to have you here, mercedes. when we business and trade look at that, this statement not unexpected, i would say, arrangements, uh, from, uh, from the mayor's office as he pushes back on these from panama. he's complaining allegations. but her allegation about the cost of shipping and was that this perp walk was he's sort of suggesting that unconstitutional because it did if panama can make a deal with not have an objective for law him, you know, maybe he would enforcement, and that adams

really had no need to be there. is there anything in that stop talking about this. and then in the case of greenland, argument that you see actually influencing the case, and what that arctic circle, you're could really seeing this as a happen? >> well, friedman agnifilo, strategically important area, who's the attorney, she's got a great reputation. she is very both maybe from a national well respected in the defense bar. she was raising her security perspective, potentially a shipping perspective. and also like rare concerns and putting it out there that she was truly a earth minerals, the kind of, um, uh, stuff that goes into computers and emerging concerned about prospective jurors. and when you have this technology that the u.s. wants type of high profile client, to be able to rely on more you don't want there to be an sources for rather than be outlandish perp walk you. you beholden to china on any of this, or just purely in shun away from it. you competition with china. uh, definitely don't want that to greenland has the potential to influence your prospective help in all of these areas. the jurors, and which is what she's doing. and she's also question is, is trump going to get what he wants by sort of laying the foundation for a motion to change venue. if creating tensions with a nation she's saying new york city is that you would think of as not where he can have a fair naturally allied with the u.s.? trial, then she's already or is he laying the groundwork planting the seeds for her to for some sort of enhanced make that motion to change partnership with denmark and venue where she is going to argue before the same tribunal greenland? so it's easy to sort of think of trump's foreign and say, let's, we need a policy as isolationist, different jury pool. and that especially as he's calling for jury pool cannot be in new york city because of what took en wars and ending, you know, the war in ukraine. but place. >> there are also some concerns this shows a different side. about the jury pool. you know, usually there is a concern that this is

perhaps a jury pool could be even an expansionist or imperialist sort of approach. tainted against the defendant, that it may be a little bit tainted for the defendant. so the difference seems to be that be interesting to see how that he's saying that he doesn't plays out. as we know there is want to withdraw from the world, but he wants u.s. going to be this state case, but also the federal case. if engagement to be on his terms he is found guilty on a federal for for basically u.s. business murder charge, he could potentially face the death penalty. donald trump yesterday, in light of gains and for u.s. technology and national security purposes. president biden commuting 37 well, and i just appreciate you death row inmate sentences. laying out that even though right. um, he posted yesterday these headlines may be strange that he would direct the doj to or, you know, even shocking to vigorously pursue the death some, there is more beneath the penalty. how do you think this surface. so thank you for laying that out for us. could impact that federal case? margaret talev, appreciate your >> well, when you have the time. thank you. thanks so death penalty at issue, that much. all right. still ahead, has to be discussed with your all netflix wants for christmas jury because the jury has to be is a glitch free broadcast. as the platform prepares to stream comfortable with convicting individuals that may face that two nfl games for the first death penalty. so this type of time ever. not to mention a argument is going to be vetted couple of star studded halftime during the jury selection performances from beyonce and mariah carey. we have details process. and it will be on all of it coming up next on interesting to see whether that will have any impact. cnn news central certainly, that's going to be a question raised by the defense that there were

reportings of the the president elect making comments about the i want to be the greatest death penalty being imposed on the client. that has to be player that i could possibly vetted to that jury. the jury become. has to make an acknowledgment that one, they did hear the comments, and it doesn't impact >> harry houdini when a tough their thinking at all. and they cop finds you on the go, it's can still sit and be a fair and would be impartial juror in that. in silly. hey, trying to rob a thousand statues packed with that trial. and secondly, maybe the power of robitussin and they didn't listen. they didn't hear that comment at every bite easy to take cough all. but either way, that relief anywhere. chew on comment could have some impact relief, chew on a doesn't. in that jury selection. and you're going to have to >> you know what you don't see in impanel jurors that are fair and impartial. and so comments psoriasis commercials? cut the about from the president elect thousands of real people who go that may impact their thinking. that's something that undiagnosed. people whose absolutely has to be vetted. psoriasis can look very different and if it's not vetted, shame depending on their skin tone. on the defense attorneys. they as the makers of tremfya, we need to make and make sure that understand that everybody's there's an understanding that that jury is not at all moderate to severe plaque influenced whatsoever. psoriasis doesn't look the same. so we undertook a first >> i'm also curious to see what of its kind study of plaque happens to the timeline. right. so we know for the state case, uh, the next hearing, the next time we'll see mangione in psoriasis in every skin tone court is february 21st. the state is expected to go before like hers and his and yours. that federal case. but is there >> serious allergic reactions and increased risk of any way that once donald trump infections may occur before

is in office, come january, we treatment. your doctor should will see changes at the doj? is check you for infections and tb. tell your doctor if you there any way that could have an infection, flu-like symptoms, or if you need a influence the timeline? vaccine. >> that's a great question, erica. it really depends on >> ask your dermatologist about tremfya hey, i'm adrian, what happens with the incoming. inventor of the carry on we don't have the sdny u.s. closet. >> most of my life i've attorney as of yet, but we will traveled with ordinary luggage until one day i imagined how to definitely have to to make sure and look at the timing really make luggage that could be extraordinary. this is the carry on closet. the suitcase with a one of a kind closet frankly, the discovery is much system that keeps you organized quicker in the federal action. anywhere. pack all you need for so it's it's interesting that up to ten days and travel the state action can actually go forward. so there will be a without ever unpacking. oh, and for each suitcase sold, we save coordination between the state 6 pounds of plastic from prosecutors and the federal entering our oceans through prosecutors to make sure that they have discovery and they innovative river barriers, the comfort of home on the go don't duplicate efforts. so unpack in seconds at solgaard there will be some coordination. and maybe in that coordination, there will be coco. some agreement between the state and federal prosecutors >> transform your website into to change the timeline at all. >> mercedes cohen, great to an immersive 3-d experience have you here. thank you. with infinite reality, you can tap the power of the spatial >> thanks for having me. happy holidays. >> and to you as well. thank and social web, unlock valuable you danny. >> thanks, erica. all right. the good news is american data, and take your brand to airlines flights are taking off the next level. it's time for again. but that follows a

the man. >> the face of h e w. there are not enough people to stop me. run while you have a chance. >> aew wednesday night dynamite at eight on tbs. >> the holiday season is traditionally one of the busiest for asheville, north carolina. of course, that was before tropical storm helene devastated the area in late september. it's tough to forget some of these pictures. now, local officials are warning that beyond the cost of rebuilding their city, the economic toll from lost business could be brutal. the estimate for the first quarter of 2025, a loss of nearly $600 million in visitor spending alone. the president and ceo of explore asheville and joins me now. good to see you. look, i know there is a real need to bring people back. when we look at this, i was struck by an estimate from fema. some 40% of small businesses don't reopen after a natural disaster. is the number that high in

asheville? >> well, erica, good afternoon. happy holidays and merry christmas eve. thanks for making time and keeping asheville in your hearts and minds. um, you know, travel and hospitality has been on full display in the wake of helene. um, and it's always been a part of the fabric of our community. and that means hundreds and hundreds of small businesses and creators and makers that have come to asheville and make their home here. >> and so when we look at that and we look at how so many people, right, their lives have been upended, their businesses have been upended, the greater economy for the area. i know what a crucial time of year this is. as i understand it, about a third of visitor spending happens in asheville from october through december. you've got foliage rolling right into the holidays. are you starting to see any of that trickle back in? >> yes, we have had over 100

small businesses close, unfortunately, but more than 1000 of our travel and hospitality businesses have fought like hell to reopen from the historic biltmore estate and grove park inn to wedge brewing in the river arts district. and just last week, french broad chocolates factory and tour business opened in the river arts district so that creative spirit is really alive and well in asheville. and we need visitors and travelers to come and help support these businesses like we residents are shopping local and spending local. >> and i know if people do want to shop local, but they're not there. i know a lot of them do have some online presence too, which is helpful to to help bring those businesses back. i was struck by, prior to helene, the mayor of asheville said that actually asheville, the lowest unemployment rate in the state. i know this can add to the challenges, right? we know how tough staffing has been for the last several years for folks across the country. with businesses closing, some people left to look for work elsewhere. how has it been in

terms of getting people back to staff up some of these businesses as they're reopening? >> you know, businesses are still paying off loans coming out of the pandemic and also building back their workforce. so this is certainly a blow to our community. but i've really not seen the grit and gumption of a community like asheville and western north carolina. that determination is really, really on display right now. you know, if your viewers want to want to help or even you, erica, you can be like forbes and put asheville on your bucket list to visit in 2025. there are lots of things happening through the holidays and into the new year in february. we have stars serving up love, which is andre agassi, andy roddick, emma navarro and jessica pegula who are going to be playing in a celebrity tennis event so we can encourage you to come there. we've got lots of live

music like we always have, and lots of art galleries that are that are open and and having works just like the ones you see behind me and lots of lots of warm, welcoming locals who would be more than happy to see you there. >> vic isley, really appreciate you taking the time to join us. we will continue to follow the stories out of asheville, the rebirth there as things get back on. and we're pulling for you, as you know. happy holidays. thank you thank you so much, erica. still to come here, getting the green light. there will soon be a new, more affordable drug for those suffering from type two diabetes. could it also pave the way for cheaper weight loss drugs? that's next. >> scott luther never too much. new year's day at eight on cnn. >> nice to meet you. my name is david. i've been a pharmacist for 44 years, and i'm from flowery branch, georgia. when i have customers come in, i recommend prevention number one because it's safe and

diabetes, and there's a hope that this will not only bring down prices in this class of drugs, but also help fill a gap. there's been a shortage of this medication and others. now, how much will it actually bring prices down? that's a key question. i've reached out to the generic drugs maker called hikma, and they would only tell us that it would be lower than the branded victoza, but we don't know exactly how much lower. there is also already another version of this drug on the market, an authorized generic that's slightly different, made by a company called teva that was only sold at a discount of about 14% to branded victoza. and so experts say it really takes a few companies coming into the market providing generic copies of drugs before you see the real collapse in prices that we associate with generic medicines. at the same time, they are really hoping that this could make it easier for folks to afford drugs in this class. as we know, especially drugs in the newer class like ozempic, if people don't have insurance coverage for those, or they don't get discounts on them, they can cost hundreds of

dollars even more than $1,000 out of pocket each month. and so that can be really difficult for a lot of folks. so doctors are hoping this reaches patients quickly and can maybe relieve some of the burden on them of the financial cost of these medicines. the company, hikma says they expect to have this available nationwide by the end of the year. >> meg tirrell, thanks very much. still ahead, here comes the sun. a nasa spacecraft makes history by coming closer to the sun than any spacecraft ever has before. incredible. we have new details coming up. >> andy, take a seat. >> anderson. >> look at this. >> you're wet. disheveled. there's debris hitting you. >> we need to be ready for new year's eve. maybe you are ready. >> new year's eve live with anderson and andy. live coverage starts at eight on cnn. this holiday season, kevin. catherine. all aboard! >> the freedom unlimited. kevin. kevin.
