this is happening quickly. and as the secretary of defense, it's an honor to salute smartly, as i did as a junior officer and now as the secretary of defense to ensure these orders are complied with rapidly and quickly. every moment that i'm here, i'm thinking about the guys and gals in guam, in germany, in fort benning and fort bragg, on missile defense sites and aircraft carriers. our job is lethality and readiness and warfighting. we're going to hold people accountable. i know the chairman agrees with that. the lawful orders of the president of the united states will be executed inside this defense department swiftly and without excuse. we will be no better friend to our allies and no stronger adversary to those who want to test us and try us. so, mr. chairman, thanks for welcoming me today. i look forward to serving the troops, the warriors of this department. it's the honor of a lifetime and we're going to get to work. god bless you all.

>> thank you. wristband. >> this right here is jorge oliveira. he was killed in afghanistan. he was asked about what i wear on my wrist every single day. it was a troop i served with. a soldier i served with in guantanamo bay when i was a platoon leader. he was killed in afghanistan. not in my unit, but when i was there. it's these guys that we do this for those that have given the ultimate sacrifice. >> expect additional troops. >> to be sent to the border soon. >> whatever is needed at the border will be provided. whether that is through state active duty. title 32 or title ten, because we have we are reorienting. this is a shift. this is not the way business has been done in the past. this is the defense department will support the defense of the territorial integrity of the united states of america at the southern border, to include reservists, national guard, and active duty in compliance with the constitution and the laws of our land and the directives of the commander in chief. >> the possibility of invoking

the insurrection act. yes. >> those will be decisions made by the white house. i look forward to conversations about anything we need to do to ensure we're securing our southern border. >> mr. secretary. >> how are you going to. >> change military training? >> i'm sorry. are you going. >> to. >> change military training? >> military training will be focused on the readiness of what our troops in the field need to deter our enemies. more rapid fielding. more, more. more rapid opportunity to train as we fight will be something we want our units to do across the spectrum. one more. >> staff and other members of the joint chiefs of staff. >> and i'm with it right now. look forward to working with them. thank you senator. >> there'll be an executive order on that right now. >> that is the new secretary of defense, pete hegseth, arriving at the pentagon for his first day on the job. there. sorry, he was still speaking there. he again, he was confirmed late friday night. needed vice

president jd vance to break a tie. so by a single vote, three republican senators voted against him, including mitch mcconnell, who put out a lengthy statement saying that now secretary hegseth was simply not up to the job. nevertheless, he is there. on his first field day, he spoke about some of his priorities. let's get to natasha bertrand. natasha, what will this look like over the coming days and weeks? >> well, john, i just have to say, i have to point out here that one of the more striking aspects of his appearance on the steps there, entering into the pentagon, was the fact that chairman of the joint chiefs of staff, general c-q brown, was there to greet him. someone that hegseth before he was nominated to serve as secretary of defense, had said should actually be removed from his position because he is a, quote, woke and he is part of the cadre of generals that needs to be eliminated from the military. so the fact that it appears that

hegseth is trying to have a good relationship with brown and brown, of course, is is also trying is an interesting data point, to say the least, in terms of what we can expect. hegseth did lay out several executive orders that he does expect the president to be signing today that could reshape the military, including, he said, an iron dome for america, which is which is a new one that we had not heard previously. reinstating service members who were banned from the military or discharged from the military because they refused to get the covid vaccine back in 2021. we should note that that was actually a repeal to that vaccine mandate back in 2023, and service members were then allowed to rejoin the military. this apparently will go a step further and will give those service members back pay, though it remains to be seen how exactly the defense department is going to be implementing that policy. and he also talked a little bit about the border, and he said that this is a shift that dod is going to be reorienting resources to the

border to defend the territorial integrity of the united states. really underscoring what we have seen over the last week, which is a surge of military resources to the border, additional troops, including active duty troops headed to the southern border, as well as, strikingly, those military flights that we have seen engaging in repatriation of migrants back to their own home countries, which was something that was particularly controversial over the weekend. of course, when columbia's president refused to accept for a time those military flights heading into columbia. so clearly, you know, hegseth he also put an emphasis there on anti dei programs, something that he tweeted about over the weekend as well. dod does not equal dei. according to a tweet, a handwritten note that he tweeted out over the weekend. so that is going to be a priority as well. we're going to see a continuation, really, of the priorities that were laid out in the very first week of the trump administration that were conducted under the acting defense secretary. now, it seems that pete hegseth is

going to continue that. john. >> natasha bertrand, so great to have you here for this important context, which i missed there. seeing the new secretary with the chairman of the joint chiefs, which apparently is at least a temporary detente in the secretary's call to have him removed from that job. all right, natasha, thank you very much. kate. >> natasha mentioned colombia and the standoff there. let's talk about that. a standoff with u.s. ally over deportation flights went from super hot to super over. just this weekend. today, a deportation deal has been reached with colombia, allowing the u.s. military planes to land and deliver deportees to the country. we're now waiting to learn when the first plane will arrive there and will do just that. this all really took off yesterday. colombia turned away two u.s. military planes carrying migrants. colombia's president calling the trump administration's treatment of migrants inhumane. and then president trump responded, threatening a 25% tariff to slap that on colombia, and also said that it would jump to 50% if

colombia continued to reject the flights. and also there is a threatened travel ban for colombian officials. the standoff, though ending just a few hours ago. cnn's priscilla alvarez is tracking this one for us. what is the white house saying about this now, this morning? >> well, they're essentially saying that these tariff threats are held in reserve. they're have the right to impose them. should colombia not follow through on this agreement, but to step back here, colombia has over recent weeks, months, years accepted deportation flights. the difference, however, was that they were on civilian aircraft, not military aircraft. now, i have been told by sources that colombia had approved of the two military flights carrying colombian nationals back to the country over the weekend, but it was the colombian president's post on x that brought that to an abrupt halt, surprising the trump administration as well as officials within his own government. and what he seemed

to imply was that he took issue with the military aircraft being used instead of the civilian aircraft, which has generally been the way that it has gone. now, as you mentioned, of course, a last minute deal was struck. so tariffs are, for now off the table. similarly, the retaliatory measures that the colombian president had threatened appear to be on the back burner for now. but these are two countries that have been allies. and now we saw this public feud play out over the weekend over again. the president's signature issue of immigration. now, it's telling the way that the president responded to this, because the u.s., in other cases has had to navigate that some countries won't take back repatriations. venezuela as an example of that because of frosty relations between the united states and venezuela, that was generally not the case with colombia. again, the president taking issue with these two flights, but all the same, the president willing to put these tariffs, which would have put them at an

economic war. so we were just on the brink of that before this deal was struck. and something that he is trying to signal. sources tell me to the world as a warning, a warning shot to those countries who are going to push back or may push back when they try to deport their citizens. >> priscilla, great to see you. thank you so much for your reporting this morning, john. >> all right. happening now. there is new video of immigration raids across the country. cnn has learned that agents are being told to dress for the cameras as they make arrests. in other words, it seems to look for this publicity. i.c.e. officials say nearly 1000 arrests were made in around the country, including in chicago, in one single day. that's about three times more than the average made on each day. let's get right to cnn's rosa flores live in chicago for the latest. good morning. rosa. >> good morning john. we are learning more about the types of arrests that are being made from

the families of the individuals who saw their loved ones being arrested. this first story comes from cnn affiliate wls. this arrest was made in the chicago area, and wls interviewed a woman who says that their father of 44 years of age, a grandfather, was arrested yesterday. they say that i.c.e. knocked on his door and he opened the door and he was arrested. according to his daughter. he arrived in the united states about 30 years ago from mexico. and this, of course, is a very emotional moment for this woman. here's what she had to say. take a listen. >> they will open the door because they thought maybe one of us were in trouble or something, or something happened to us. he never did. that would have been nice. i'm already heartbroken myself, and i can't really imagine little kids whose families are breaking apart because of this. >> i.c.e. says that they are focusing on individuals who are

public safety threats or national security threats. individuals with criminal backgrounds. we don't know anything about this man that was arrested yesterday here in the chicago area, but we have asked i.c.e. now let's step back to talk about what this has created in the chicago area within the migrant and immigrant community. i can tell you that there is extreme panic from talking to organization leaders and contacts and sources here. they tell me that there is a sense of panic. and one of the examples that they used is an anecdote of a family from venezuela, a migrant family who arrived here about two years ago. they have two young girls, elementary school aged, and they say that they have not left their homes since trump took office. since he was inaugurated last week. so this is two elementary age girls who have not gone to school. their parents have not gone to work. they are cooped up in their apartment. this organization learned about them, and so they have been dropping off groceries. and this organization tells me that the number of individuals who now

need groceries because they are cooped up in their homes has grown. and so those are the types of stories that we're starting to hear about in the chicago area. as this focus on chicago clamps down. so, john, we're going to continue monitoring the situation. i'm talking to a lot of contacts and sources to try to learn more about the arrests that happened here in chicago yesterday, and also asking i.c.e. about more information regarding these arrests. >> it's great to have you there pushing for answers to this. rosa flores in chicago, thank you very much, kate. >> coming up for us, three of donald trump's more controversial cabinet picks are headed to capitol hill this week. among them, trump's pick to lead america's public health agencies and a former secretary of hhs is speaking out now, saying rfk jr. is dangerous. she is our guest. and the big game is all set. now it's time to prepare your super bowl spread. how much it could cost you

thinking that it would be nice to have some firefighters and soup kitchen operators, he said. with us now is maria cardona, a cnn political commentator and democratic strategist and cnn senior political commentator scott jennings. he's a former senior adviser to senator mitch mcconnell and a former special assistant to president george w. bush. and and i don't want to talk about the kitchen cabinet thing as much as the sort of the smattering of small dissent that we've heard over the last 3 or 4 days. you had your old boss, scott mitch mcconnell, voting no on pete hegseth. you've got lindsey graham and tom cotton saying they wish that president trump hadn't removed the security details from john bolton and others. you got chuck grassley overnight saying what's going on with president trump illegally firing these inspectors general? so, scott, my question to you is how much louder will dissent like this get? might it get? and when do you think it will cross a line that it would impede president

trump from certain actions? >> well. >> first of. >> all, i think it's natural for. >> a. >> party that has. >> such a. >> broad constituency. >> now to have. >> some dissent. i mean. you've got this party. is so large and he's got such an ideologically diverse set. >> of supporters. >> you're going to get some. >> of this. >> number one, and. >> that's okay. >> number two. >> you know, the. >> real meat of what donald. >> trump is. >> trying to. accomplish is going to come. >> in the. >> policy enactment. >> of what will. >> come through. >> this reconciliation package. and so, you know, if you have a few republicans. today criticizing on small. >> issues here and. >> there, that's different than if. >> people in mass. >> decided they didn't. >> want to support. >> the trump agenda. >> when congress gets around to passing. >> that. >> here in the next couple of months. so i think a little bit of dissent is natural and fine. >> i think. >> they'll handle. >> it internally. and trump. >> should listen. >> these are his allies. on capitol hill, and he should. >> talk to them and listen. >> to.

>> them and. >> see how they can. >> work better together. >> but the big ticket issues. >> taxes. >> energy. >> immigration. >> the. >> things where they're really trying to change the country. a there's. >> no dissent now. and b, i think there's going to be. >> widespread support for what trump's doing in the republican party. you'll see no dissent for. >> that on capitol hill. >> so maria, what do you think the likelihood is that president trump listens to these concerns that some republicans are raising with some of the things he's done. >> zero. >> because i. >> don't think he cares. >> look, and. >> this is what we've seen from the very beginning, he is acting. >> like an. >> imperial president because. >> he was handed. >> an imperial presidency. >> by the. >> supreme court. >> and frankly. >> all. >> of this dissent. >> now that you're. >> talking about. >> john. >> really doesn't matter. >> because where was it. before when trump was very clear as to what he was going to do? so scott is right. i mean, the agenda that president trump put forward is no secret. and so all of this dissent right now. >> to. >> me, kind of means nothing among their own party if they don't really do anything about

it. now, we did see scott's old boss, mitch mcconnell show some spine when he voted against pete hegseth, which is a horrific pick for the defense department. but sadly, it wasn't enough to keep him from being there. we'll see what happens when these other picks come up for nomination for for the vote. a tulsi gabbard rfk jr. kash patel, which i believe are some of the most dangerous. and i know that there has been some grumblings and some dissent, even among republicans about those. that's when we'll really see, john, whether those people who are now complaining and grumbling and dissenting, will they show the backbone to really put their money where their dissent is and show that they can go up against trump when it really matters, when these are going to be positions of such power and influence that are going to make decisions of life and death over the american people, i doubt it. i doubt that there will be enough of dissent on behalf of the republican

party. i hope i'm wrong to be able to keep them from the positions of power. but we'll see. >> scott, i wanted to give you a chance to respond to that before i move to inflation. >> yeah. >> well, i'll just say that it wasn't. >> the supreme court that handed donald trump anything. >> it was. >> the voters of. >> the united states of america who gave him the popular vote. and the electoral college. he's acting on their behalf after having won the election. he's enacting the agenda that they asked him to enact. and so whether it's on immigration personnel, foreign diplomacy, as we saw over the weekend, this is what the mandate is. and right now he's got pretty high approval. in fact, donald trump has higher approval rating today than he's ever had in his entire political career. so people seem to like it. >> so, scott, one of the things he did run on was the economy and inflation. and i get that he's, what, five or 6 or 7 now days into the job. but one of the things when you do push forward a muscular administration in trying to make a lot of changes, is that ultimately you then carry a lot of responsibility. and i'm not

going to play the sound again. but jd vance was asked about the economy and prices and whether or not any of the executive orders had addressed that directly. i do wonder from you what you think, how much, how much runway you think there is before this administration. i think more overtly puts the focus towards economic issues, toward prices, toward things like that. you talked about this reconciliation plan, but there are some risks, right? you know, the market's tanking this morning over something not completely related to this, but sometimes the economy does weird things. scott. >> yeah. well, first of all, i think anybody that's out making criticism about prices of anything after five days of a presidency is not someone you should listen to. if that is your political argument today, you're showing just how empty you are and exactly why democrats lost the last election. they obviously understand nothing about how the american people are processing this. number two, you get your next report card at the midterm. i mean, november 2026, voters

will go back to the polls, and they're going to register a verdict on how the party in power is doing. the party in power is a republican party. we control everything small margins, but we control everything. and they're going to expect some progress on issues. uh, immigration, economy, energy prices. i mean, those are the big ticket issues. and they're also going to assess how they feel about their own lives. do you do they still feel the same economic anxiety that they were feeling under the last administration? and do they feel that the policies that have been put in place are working or are moving towards working? so you get your next report card at the midterm? and i think i think he's got that kind of leash to enact an agenda. i mean, joe biden was in office for four years. it got pretty bad. and that's why donald trump won the election. so i don't think people are out screaming about egg prices after five days are very credible at the moment. >> john maria. >> i would say that it is going to be something that voters are going to vote on in the next two years. there's no question

about that. but they do expect for donald trump, who promised them that he was going to prioritize bringing down the prices of their groceries, their gas and their rent for him to prioritize bringing down the prices of their groceries, their gas and their rent. and he has done everything but that. and in fact, the things that he has focused on are things that economists have said across the board will be things that will increase the prices of people's groceries, gas and rent, like the mass deportation raids that we are now seeing, which besides being completely focused on malevolence and cruelty and separating families. and we saw that report that, you know, they focused on a gentleman who is a grandfather who's been here for 30 years. and, i don't know, maybe he is on a most wanted list, but i kind of doubt it. but we'll see. and the quote is that now ice is demanding from their agents. doesn't seem to me are very targeted. and then the

tariffs, the tariff wars that donald is now focusing on every single day, both of those things are going to increase the prices of groceries, gas and rent, which is a betrayal of the american people. and what trump promised them. >> well, it'll be interesting to see if any of the tariffs actually go into effect or if he keeps using them as a threat. maria cardona, scott jennings, thanks to both of you. appreciate it. >> thanks, john. >> so there is some economic stuff happening right now. we're minutes away from the opening bell. tech stocks have just taken a battering. stock futures way, way down. we're going to tell you why this is happening and how some assumptions people had about artificial intelligence have been shaken to the core. and the president's nominee for health secretary, robert f. kennedy jr., heads to capitol hill, where the prospects for his nomination stand.

kobe day. >> picks will be in the hot seat, headed to the senate for confirmation hearings. robert f. president trump to lead the department of health and human services, a move that has alarmed doctors, scientists and professionals across the health care and public health arenas. really, across the board. kennedy's nomination, coupled with the recent decision by president trump to pull the united states out of the world health organization, has former hhs secretaries sounding the alarm, with one writing this quote, while the w.h.o. desperately needs an updated organizational and operational structure, withdrawing from this global body, as announced by mr. trump, would be disastrous. that came from former secretary of hhs kathleen sebelius, who joins us now. secretary, thanks for your time. you've also said that if rfk jr. is confirmed, he will cause it will cause disease and death. why do you think he is so dangerous in terms of taking on this role that you have held? what questions do you

hope that senators will be asking him when they vet him? well, kate, thanks. >> for having me. >> um, it's really hard to. >> figure out where rfk jr. stands. on most issues, but some are pretty clear. he has said over and over and over again that there is no safe and effective vaccine. while he seems to be denying that position in his recent senate visits, that's his position for years. and that, to me, is one of the most dangerous things that could come out of the mouth of any health minister representing the united states. and with influence across the globe, because vaccines are probably the single biggest health improvement in the last 100 years. in this country, saving millions and millions of lives. so having a pronounced

view that no vaccine is safe. now, he says he's changed his mind on that. of course, he, you know, is an environmental lawyer turned. health expert, according to himself. he does not listen or look at the proven science. he does not listen or look to the experts in the field. but he has found his own experts to listen to and has very, very pronounced views on a wide variety of issues which are just out of step with, i think, the mainstream of the scientific community. vaccines are one of them. he doubts the origins of hiv aids. he has cast doubts on whether or not americans should be, you know, using various medicines. he's got millions of dollars tied up suing the very drug companies we need to work with to again, improve medicines for people in the united states. so he has a very mixed record for this particular role.

>> yeah, i've heard it from other, including scientists who say he says he wants to make the science behind especially vaccines and medicines transparent, but he doesn't listen to the proven science of those medicines and vaccines when they're presented to him, which is the obfuscation and confusion around his views. additionally, you wrote in this opinion piece last week responding to the president with moving to withdraw the united states from the world health organization again. and you and you wrote this many regard america's global health work as smart diplomacy. even the most hostile countries welcome our medical expertise and support because health security is essential to international security. and every country's economy, it does not look like donald trump is going to reverse course on this decision. what do you think the result will be? >> well, i'm afraid what it will be is the world health organization, which has been around since the end of world war ii and includes basically

every country in the world. if the united states withdraws, it may well collapse. and what that does is not just make americans far less safe and secure, but it it really sends ripples throughout the world in terms of not being able to detect and prevent and restrain diseases at a very early stage, not being able to share information. we saw, kate, what happened when donald trump withdrew personnel from china in his first administration. we had cdc personnel who were headquartered in china and worked closely with the chinese health ministry. they left. it took us a lot longer to find out about covid and what was going on with covid than it should have, and frankly, covid was already in the united states by the time we started executing measures to try and restrain the spread of the disease. that's a great

example of how vulnerable we are. diseases don't have passports. they don't clear customs, they don't care about borders. they come with the global travelers. 8 million americans a year. i mean, i'm sorry, 8 million americans a month leave the country and come back. millions of foreigners come to the united states for family visits and tourism. our food is imported in large amounts. our medicines are imported. we can't stop disease from coming into this country. what we can do is have a collaboration, share information, try and identify very early on what's going on in other countries, and send experts to help deal with it. i'm not doing that. putting on blinders in the united states makes americans far less, not only less healthy and less secure, but we watch covid topple the economy once. this is an economic and security

issue. >> secretary sebelius, thank you for coming in. john. >> all right. we do have breaking news. stock markets open just a few minutes ago. and it's not pretty down big, especially the tech heavy nasdaq. cnn's matt egan is here to explain what we're seeing and why. matt. >> john, we've got a bit of a tech selloff this morning, and it's being caused by earth shattering developments in the a.i. space. so let's take a look at this. you see the dow down more than 140 points right now. the s&p solidly lower. but the real action is over here in the nasdaq 600 points lower. nearly 3% on track for one of its worst days in the past two years. and here's why. there's a chinese startup that few people had ever heard of until the past few days, and it has emerged as a real player in the a.i. arms race. it's called deep seek and investors, and i would imagine officials in washington are stunned to learn that deep seeks a.i. model has

developed technology that can actually be competitive with open a.i. and google and x a.i. and all these more established players. it's only been around for a bit, but deep seek has already vaulted to the top of the app store on apple as the most downloaded app, passing chatgpt, which is pretty shocking. look at that number one. veteran investor, billionaire marc andreessen. he's a legendary tech investor, he said that deep seek is, quote, one of the most amazing and impressive breakthroughs that he has ever seen. now, the most stunning thing here isn't necessarily that china has developed a pretty good a.i. app. it's how cheap it is. deep seek says that their a.i. model only cost $5.6 million, though we don't know that. but if that's true, that is pretty stunning. anthropic. one of the leading a.i. companies, has said that it costs about 100 million

to $1 billion to develop an a.i. model. we know that mark zuckerberg, the meta ceo, says that his company plans to spend $65 billion on a.i. so, look, this is all really questioning sort of the foundation here of the a.i. boom, which is that it requires a lot of spending, which is that the u.s. is running away with the a.i. arms race. and it's also questioning some of the big positives that have pushed markets to record highs. >> a lot of people have put a lot of money into a.i., and now they're wondering if that money is needed. the way that some of these american companies have said it is. exactly. we just don't know if the claims being made by this chinese company. >> this is moving so fast. it's stunning. >> all right. we're going to stay on top of this. as we said, big drops, especially in the nasdaq. thank you matt. >> thanks, tom. >> all right. so what president trump said about gaza that has shaken the region, including some of america's fiercest allies there. and then huge questions surrounding the super bowl this morning. number one, how could they not call that josh allen run a first down. and

number two, how much are my nachos going to cost? >> i brought in ensure max protein with 30g of protein. those who tried me felt more energy in just two weeks. here, i'll take that. >> ensure. max protein. >> 30g protein. >> one gram of. >> sugar and a protein blend. >> to feed. >> muscles up to seven hours. >> introducing the ex back from copper fit our groundbreaking technology designed for compression support of your lower back and core like you've never experienced before, the ex back evenly distributes the support across a broader surface area of your back for relief of lower back aches and pains. an orthopedic designed alloy support panel and four built in flexible stabilizers to help improve alignment and promote better posture. available at get back call copper fit. feel the difference. >> hi, i'm caleb and this is my story. i was born with osteogenesis imperfecta or brittle bone disease. i have

>> all right. i'm not sure if that was the full quote there, but cnn global affairs analyst kimberly dozier is with us now. and, kim, what president trump seen him suggest or what people are reading into it, is a removal of people from gaza. he said he wanted to ask egypt and jordan to accept people from gaza. why does that set off so many alarm bells? not just for palestinians, but also in egypt and jordan and across the region? >> because it's shades of the 1948 nakba, as the palestinians call it, the forced eviction of three quarters of a million. >> palestinians after. >> the 1948 arab-israeli war, when the state of israel was established. it is something that palestinians inside gaza have feared since the start of the israeli operation. post the october 7th attacks. they don't

want to be evicted from their territory because they believe they'll never get back. and while egypt could probably absorb that population size, jordan already has more than 2 million palestinian refugees in a population of 11 million. if the jordanian king were to say yes to this, there would be massive political unrest inside his country over that collapse. to us, demands. >> is it possible? first of all, it's unclear whether or not the president intended to say it exactly as he did or not. but could this be seen as a negotiating tactic? >> maybe it could be a negotiating tactic to signal to hamas that they better get serious about the phase two of negotiations for the rest of the hostages to be released. but i think it's more reflective of the orbit that president trump travels in. and what he's hearing

from his un ambassador. um, nominee elise stefanik said last week that she believes the west bank should go back to israel. many of the people around trump, both the jewish and christian community around trump, are of a hard right position on israel. do not believe in a palestinian state. so was he riffing? maybe. but could it be made into policy? possibly because of the advice of those he's got around him. >> long term in the first trump administration? and one would think in this trump administration, much of its foreign policy vis a vis the middle east will go through saudi arabia. i mean, could the saudis countenance even public statements like this? how does that complicate the ability of the saudis to negotiate with the united states and israel well, saudi arabia has said that it will not move forward with negotiations with

israel and signing on to the abraham accords unless there are permanent there plans for talks towards a permanent palestinian independent state. >> so trump has also indicated that he needs something from saudi arabia. he said last week he needs saudi arabia to exercise its influence with opec, raised oil production and lower oil prices so that trump can get putin to pull out of ukraine. so saudi arabia has a couple of carrots and sticks that it can hold over trump. but the overall arab world reaction is something that trump also has to consider. the arab world will not countenance. um, palestinians being flushed out of gaza. the reaction would make any expansion of the abraham accords, i think, impossible. >> kim dozier, great perspective on this. thanks so much for being with us this morning. kate. >> so the countdown is on to super bowl

>> di. i need you. >> the eagles will play the kansas city chiefs in the super bowl, which may or may not excite you, but even if it doesn't, you will no doubt eat on that day. the question is how much is it going to cost you to eat? how much will your meal cost? cnn's vanessa yurkovich is here with that. great to see you. >> great to. >> see you guys. >> i'm going. >> to move. >> on from that. >> but listen, the super bowl party this year will cost you about the same as last. >> year, which. >> is. >> good news. >> unless you're trying to be healthy. >> and here's. >> why you would do that. >> well. >> there are some people this year who want to be healthy, and that's actually pushing the prices of vegetables up this year. >> so if you want that snack. >> plate. with the. >> dips and. >> vegetables, that's going to cost you more. for example. cherry tomatoes. >> if. >> you like. >> to dip that in. some some dipping. >> sauce. >> i'm up about. >> 11.9%. >> and that's because. >> they're grown mostly.

>> in florida. florida was impacted by two hurricanes. about 40% of the crop was affected. avocados this year again, growing. conditions not. >> so great, up 11.5%. and then bell peppers, carrots also up this year also. >> because though. >> people who. >> are taking ozempic and these kinds of drugs are tending to buy more healthy foods, and they're seeing, according to this wells fargo report, that more people are buying vegetables. also chicken wings up this year. sorry. so that's one of the big. >> staples of the super. >> bowl party. but down this year, let's talk about the good news. frozen pizza. if you want to have a little more of an elegant spread shrimp. shrimp is down about 4% this year. and to offset the higher prices of avocados, tortilla chips down about 1.4%. and there's other ways to save, too. you know, you want to think about kind of the seesaw effect at the grocery store, maybe spend a little more on expensive items, but try to save on other things. they're calling it food fluent. you need to be food fluent this year to try to get a little bit of a diversity of

more expensive things, less expensive things. about $139 for a party of ten this year. that's up about $0.10 from last year. so not super expensive. >> but when it comes to the super bowl, i feel like my food fluency is lacking. i have to say, like. >> i can't believe that like ozempic is even influencing the super bowl, but i believe it. it's like such a thing. when you said that, i'm like, wow, even this. >> yeah, and there's other ways to save too, right? you want to make sure if you're going to the grocery store, get the avocados and make the guacamole yourself, because prepared food items are more expensive, because labor costs are up, the packaging costs more. and also, if you're buying soda for your party by two liter sodas instead of the cans, because the cans are going to cost you more. so you just got to think about what you're willing to spend more on. obviously, the shrimp guys, if you want to buy that, you're getting some savings. >> there and pushing. >> thank you. >> vanessa todd, good sunday. thanks so much for joining us. this is cnn news central cnn newsroom. up next it is the
