the country. in a memo, the acting director for the office of management and budget writes this, this temporary pause will provide the administration time to review agency programs and determine the best uses of the funding for those programs, consistent with the law and the president's priorities. and while the memo does not specify which projects will be impacted, it does not say that it will not affect social security or medicare benefits, nor does it include assistance provided directly to individuals. some assurances, though, we did just get from the white house press secretary about some of those. still, the uncertainty here, it's causing a lot of turmoil for some organizations that rely on federal support. meals on wheels, for one, which is known so well, it serves more than 2 million senior citizens. a spokesperson for meals on wheels says that this is creating

chaos, which unfortunately means seniors will panic not knowing where their next meal will come from. then there is head start. that's early education. it's health and family support to low income families that could be forced to shut down some of its programs as early as tomorrow. a head start, just for your understanding. it serves so many people, nearly 800,000 low income children from birth to age five and their families. and then there are other programs like rental assistance, that helps seniors, veterans, working families keep the roofs over their heads. and the center on budget and policy priorities found that more than 8.6 million people in cities and suburbs, along with 1.5 million in rural areas and small towns, are relying on that rental assistance. also, cnn is learning that the pause could halt local health programs for things like disease surveillance, water safety, restaurant inspections and also

substance abuse. the national council of nonprofits says that this freeze is a potential five alarm fire that could be devastating and cost lives. boris. >> meantime, the white house attempted to clear up some of the confusion about what will be impacted by that freeze in financial aid. when press secretary karoline leavitt faced reporters during her first official briefing of president trump's second term. the memo says the pause will not affect social security or medicare benefits, but it doesn't address medicaid. here's how leavitt responded when she was asked about that. >> it wasn't clear to. me whether. >> you were. >> saying that no medicaid would be cut off. obviously, a lot of this goes to states before it goes to individuals and so forth. so are you guaranteeing here that no individual now on medicaid would see a cut off because of the pause? >> i'll check back on that and get back to you. >> let's take you to the white house now with cnn chief national affairs correspondent jeff zeleny. jeff, i do want to point out that leavitt just

posted moments ago on social media saying, quote, the white house is aware of the medicaid website portal outage. we've confirmed no payments have been affected. they are still being processed and sent. she says we expect the portal will be back online shortly. there is the most notable, though, that the white house is trying to clarify this with. about two hours before these changes take effect. so. >> boris, that encapsulates really the confusion that is arranged not just across washington here, but indeed across all federal agencies, state agencies. because of that memo last night from the office of management and budget. now, the reality here is there is some confusion. watching that two press briefing, it was very clear. the press secretary said direct individual payments would not be affected. but then she said she wasn't sure about medicaid. the white house came back and said medicaid funding is not impacted. however, you saw there from the states that

those state portals are down. so there is a likelihood that this will sort of work itself out. but the bigger picture here is the what is affected. and this was a sweeping order that the office of management and budget impacted to review and put a pause on all of those programs. and it's unclear exactly which one will which ones will be unfrozen. so medicaid, it seems like, will not be affected by this. but there are a host of other programs, of course, across the government that will. and the bigger point on all of this is the president is again trying to flex his presidential powers here. congress is saying that it passed these laws. it funded these programs. so you can just see a fight coming on this. >> boris and jeff leavitt also defended trump's immigration crackdown and the administration's vow to specifically target undocumented immigrants with criminal records. that was an interesting exchange.

>> it certainly was. i mean, this has been, of course, at the center of the president's whole reason for running for office. he's been talking about immigration for the better part of a decade. he's been watching, we're told, these enforcement and these raids happening over the weekend. but the question is, would there just be a focus on dangerous criminals or not? and this is what the white house press secretary said to that question. >> the 3500 arrests ice has made so far since president trump came back into office. can you just tell us the numbers? how many have a criminal record versus those who are just in the country illegally? all of them, because they illegally broke our nation's laws and therefore they are criminals. as far as this administration goes. i know the last administration didn't see it that way. so it's a big culture shift in our nation to view someone who breaks our immigration laws is a criminal, but that's exactly what they are. >> doing. >> so the underlying question, of course, is is there a crime that these migrants have already been accused of, in addition to

being here illegally and the white house clearly making it clear that that is not necessary, but that is not necessarily what was expected. talking about these immigration raids and things. so as this continues over the coming weeks and months, we will see what the fallout from all of these policies are. we will see what the fallout from these immigration policies are. but we should say this is none of this should be a surprise. this is what president trump campaigned on. and now, day by day, sometimes hour by hour, we are seeing the fallout from all of that here. so but a very interesting a first press briefing today from karoline leavitt. >> yeah. and i, i also want to let our viewers know that the newly minted homeland security secretary, kristi noem, it's her first day on the job officially, and she's speaking to staffers literally right now about these immigration crackdowns. we're going to turn some of that sound for you as we get it. jeff zeleny live from the white house. thank you so

much, brianna. >> joining us now is the president and ceo for the national council of nonprofits, diane yentel. and diane, you, along with several nonprofit groups, just sued the trump administration over this freeze. tell us more about the suit. >> yes, we did. thank you. and we are suing to stop this order because it could have catastrophic consequences for people and communities throughout the country. this order that would halt federal spending on a multitude of programs would impact programs like housing assistance for veterans or food assistance, food for infants, women and children, disaster assistance would be impacted. so the very communities that president trump just visited in north carolina impacted by hurricane helene, and then the people of california, who lost so much to the wildfires, those same people that he just visited promising, uh, promising relief, would have

the very funds that they need to recover and rebuild halted. and we're talking about potentially shuttering domestic violence shelters, uh, homeless shelters, pausing childcare assistance. so the pain and the harm from this order would be broad and deep, and it would be felt in communities across the country, from red states to blue states, from rural to suburban to urban communities alike. >> so we just watched the white house press briefing tell us, as you were listening to the white house press secretary karoline leavitt, uh, what clarification maybe did inform you and what actually did not help ensure that a lot of those things you just described won't, won't actually go into effect? >> i would say there's very little clarification from that press conference or from the q&a

to congress. and by the way, a question and answer fact sheet to congress doesn't hold the same weight as a directive from omb to federal agencies. and what i heard in the press conference and what i see in that q&a is parsing of words, i hear the press secretary saying that they're not going to halt direct assistance to americans. right. but who defines what direct assistance to americans is? i would define, um, homeless shelters, providing beds for people to sleep in on a cold night, direct assistance to americans. or i would consider a head start program, early childhood education, to be direct assistance to americans. but these are the very program, the very programs and the very program providers who, as of this morning and in some cases last night, aren't able to access the federal portals that they've always used to get the funding that they need to

provide those services. so along with the directive that was sent to federal agencies yesterday evening, omb also sent sort of a questionnaire that covered 2600 programs across the federal government asking for federal agencies within a week or so to provide justifications. essentially for these programs. so the the harm, again, could be very, very broad. and it's worth remembering, too, that all of the funding for these programs was passed on a bipartisan basis by congress. so the executive branch is really overstepping its authority in trying now to say that funding somehow doesn't align with its priorities. >> yeah. they insist she was asked about that today. today they insist they are not. but huge questions as you raise that they may be. diane yentel, thank you so much for being with us.

thank you. next, the nation's new secretary of homeland security, kristi noem addressing staffers for the first time about the future of the department. we'll have her remarks coming here shortly. we're monitoring them. these come hours after she joined ice enforcement operations in new york overnight. her message is ahead. plus, oklahoma's board of education voting to require parents to prove their citizenship when enrolling their children in school. i'll talk to the state's top education official about the move next. >> the boeing. >> 747 has crashed in the lockerbie area. >> trying to find out the why of it became everything. >> nothing is what it seems in the lockerbie. >> story. >> lockerbie, the bombing of pan am flight 103, february 16th on scene. >> watch your step. oh, that's why visionworks makes it simple to schedule. >> an eye. exam that works for you. >> even if you have a big trip to plan around.

right now about what the department. >> can do. so the. >> irony is she's out there. >> giving a. >> pep talk. >> which a new secretary should do about how meaningful they are in. >> people's lives. when when disaster hits, what. >> they do for the safety. >> and. security of america, from cyber. >> to the border to the to the coast guard. >> but huge. >> swaths of the department. >> are not doing anything right now. so i think, you know, looking at what. >> the decision was about the omb, omb directive to just give some details to things i'm hearing from from people, what i know from the department, a big question about fema funds. and even though the president was in north carolina and california last friday saying that they would have help, uh, the disbursement of those funds comes through. grants don't go to individuals. they go to state and local. so those are held up. uh, police departments are recipients of the major homeland security grant called the the that goes to state and locals to

support police departments and everything from counterterrorism to to fentanyl protection to to public health. so all. so it's just like, it's just weird. i mean, to be told, you know, what you do is important. and then this sort of sideswipe from last night, i think they'll be clarifications by the white house as they figure out, uh, to be honest, sort of what did they actually mean or intend or is this just for the fight? and this will be over in two days, and we'll go through this cycle again. meanwhile, uh, you know, the homeland security continues. >> that is such an important point. i am curious about the way that the administration is trying to publicize some of its efforts when it comes to this immigration crackdown. this morning, secretary noem posted photos and videos on x from an operation in the bronx. you see her there wearing a police and an ice vest. we also saw doctor phil in an apparent ride along with agents in chicago. what do

you make of these operations seemingly being made for tv? made to be publicized? yes. >> so one of the challenges in the weeks and months and years ahead is going to be what, in fact, is happening as compared to what the what the administration wants to tell us is happening. there's there's there's shifts in immigration policy in particular, something like cbp one, the app that they brought down, um, that will now just make asylum seekers more confused, not less. right. and um, but what the department, what the trump administration inherited was shock of all shocks. the numbers are there, which is is a much quieter border than what they sold. and so they're going to have to do much, what we would call performative enforcement actions, that is bringing doctor phil, televising it, bringing noem, who looks like she's going into combat, um, uh, in new york city, this is part of the performative nature of their

immigration policy. it's up to us to to the media and analysts to drill down on what, in fact, why are why is this happening? the numbers are are at least from the first week, are the same as they were under biden. all administrations do enforcement actions. so part of this is the performative nature of it. um, and going after people that were also gone after in the biden administration. and, but what we're also hearing, of course, is this overinclusiveness of these immigration actions, when you tell ice they need to deport, they are going to find people that do not look like kristi noem or even the trump family. uh, and so we are already starting to hear of racial profiling, uh, of americans, including puerto ricans who are americans. this is this is lawsuits. i mean, that's all it's going to be. and the

administration and the u.s. government and therefore, the federal taxpayer is going to have to pay properly for these false and, and and, you know, sort of racially motivated, uh, arrest. it's not i'm not i'm just being descriptive here. it's not a good way to use government resources for a serious problem, which is, of course, immigration, border controls and border enforcement. but this is what the administration will do in terms of this performative aspects of it. doctor phil is just the best, best, easiest and and somewhat like absurd example to have a talk show host follow along on immigration raids, which presumably we've been told they're dangerous. not sure you want to put him in that. >> juliette kayyem appreciate you sharing your perspective. thanks for joining us. >> thank you. >> brianna. >> we are following a developing story out of oklahoma where schools could soon have some new rules. the state's board of

education voted unanimously today to require families to prove their immigration status when enrolling students. under the proposal, school districts must then record the number of students with undocumented parents and pass that information along to the state. officials say the immigration status of students will not impact their ability to attend schools. the rule still needs approval from state lawmakers. joining us now is oklahoma's superintendent of public instruction, ryan walters. superintendent, would you be seeking information about the immigration status of parents or the immigration status of children? >> well, look, all of the above, because what we're trying to do is ensure that we have the information to properly educate oklahoma kids. we're going to put oklahoma kids first. and we've seen an influx of illegal immigration into our state. we've got to know where that population is, where the migrants are, and to make sure that we're allocating resources and personnel appropriately. so we're looking to gather that information in order to best do that. >> so you did an interview with the station in your state, and

when you spoke about gathering this information, at no point did you say that it was for allocating educational resources. your rationale for turning over information was solely focused on enforcement around illegal information. i want to play what you said. >> look, we will not allow schools to be sanctuary schools anymore. we will turn over information to the trump administration so that they can make decisions on where illegal immigrants are, how big the problem is. so we have already announced that we're going to do those things. president trump is doing that nationwide, so we're happy to work with him on that. and look, we're going to make sure that his policies are enforced. >> you also wouldn't rule out raids in schools. so which is it? educational resources or enforcement of immigration policies? >> oh, it's absolutely both. i've been crystal clear on that. president trump won a clear mandate, and he is fulfilling his campaign promises very quickly by deporting illegal immigrants. and part of that is, he said schools are no longer going to be sanctuaries. we're not going to allow sanctuary schools here

in oklahoma. he's going to get that information so he can make the decisions on how to deport families together. and that's something that's very important as we move forward. and of course, you've got to have information to educate kids, which again, is one of our top priorities here. so you've got to be able to do both things at the same time. >> so i mean, talk about the information that you'd be willing to hand over then. because if you're talking about allocation of resources, it's not about individual information. would you be willing to hand over people's identities or just the number of undocumented parents broken down by school district? >> well, let me be clear. yeah, i'll give president trump whatever he needs to carry out his agenda. it is a law to not work with law enforcement. that would be a felony. of course, we're going to work with ice. of course we're going to work with president trump. he's got a mandate. he is moving quicker than any other president in history to fulfill that mandate, that promise to the american people. we will work with law enforcement. we will work with ice to ensure that president trump is able to carry out his mandate.

>> well, you don't have to ask for this information to parents. just to be clear, you do now because you're passing a rule. but after you turn over information to the trump administration, what are they going to do with it well, look, that's president trump's decision, not mine. >> but we stand at the ready to help him fulfill his campaign promise. and reality is we've seen the left wing media lost their mind about separation of family. and i know a lot of that was embellished years ago. but it's so important for the trump administration to have the data. where are the families, where are they located and when they're making these decisions? i know that they want to keep the families intact. this helps them understand where the families are, where the kids are, and so they can continue to fulfill that. but look, we've got to put oklahoma and american citizens first. they're kids. we've got to make sure resources are allocated appropriately. and look, we've had a record amount of fentanyl in our schools. we literally had a migrant arrested on domestic terrorism charges last year in one of our schools. we've got to make sure this information is readily available for law enforcement. and we applaud

president trump for the tremendous job he's doing in bringing law and order back to this country. >> so undoubtedly, there will be parents who are undocumented with kids who are american citizens. oklahomans. how do you make that distinction? >> look, that's where you gather the information. and again, how things are enforced is going to be up to the trump administration. and we stand by ready to do that. but gathering information is so crucial here. you saw a 1982 supreme court decision, plyler, which is a ridiculous supreme court decision. but but what we've seen is it straddled states. we're dealing with illegal immigration. you've seen the biden and harris administration, their own ice director admitted they knew this was a major problem. they should have done more to address it. that's why we've sued them for $474 million. that's the low ball estimate of how much it's cost our state to educate illegal immigrant children. we've got to move forward with solutions. it starts with understanding the scope of the problem, getting information around the problem. that's what we're trying to do. and we applaud the trump administration for working so

quickly to enforce law and order back in our states, back in our schools. and look, we answer to the taxpayers of oklahoma, and they deserve to know how many illegal immigrants are in their schools. >> would you help facilitate the removal of students from schools? actually in the schools in the process, the process being in the schools, if that's what the trump administration wants, would you help facilitate the removal of parents as they're dropping off or picking up their children at school? if that's what the trump administration wants. >> we stand by ready to work with the trump administration. listen, we're talking about folks that crossed into the country illegally. many of them have committed crimes in the country. and we've seen trump administration identifying those individuals. so, yes, we will turn over criminals in our schools to work with law enforcement. and it is absurd that any state, any city official, any school official would say otherwise. they should be working with law enforcement to enforce our law to protect

american citizens. >> let's talk about oklahoma. and i do want to play. i want to talk about oklahoma, and i want to talk about what you have made clear, which is that raids are within the realm of possibility. here's what you said. >> so you're not completely ruling. >> out a raid. >> on an oklahoma school? >> no. if that's what if president trump sees fit as there's illegal immigrant population there that needs to have enforcement to remove them from the schools? absolutely. we will work with him to make sure that he's able to carry that out. >> do you think that would be traumatic for students in schools? and i'm talking about all students. >> well, what my big concern is, is what illegal immigration has done to our education system. it has caused mass chaos. we aren't able to get the resources and the. >> teachers to the superintendent. >> as necessary. >> do you think it would be. absolutely for students to witness a raid in their school, and students forcibly removed from their school? do you think

that would be traumatic? >> i think what would be traumatic is if you didn't give trump, president trump, the information necessary to keep families together. so what you would prefer is to just deport the the parents and have the kids have no idea what happened to their parents, what we're. >> going to do, what i'm asking. i'm asking you. that's not at all what i'm asking, superintendent. i'm asking you if you had a raid on a school and you were forcibly removing students from schools, if you think that would be traumatic for other students in the school. >> i support president trump's decisions on how to enforce immigration policy. you are asking me a question, a hypothetical, when we're dealing. >> with hypothetical, you made. >> it clear, superintendent. >> you made it clear it's not hypothetical. you said it's not hypothetical. >> sir, last year. and your defense would say you wouldn't remove him because he's a terrorist in a school. of course we're going to take it on a case by case basis. we're going to work with the trump administration. we have fentanyl deaths over 600 times up in our

state. of course we're going to deal with that. >> i'm talking about children, sir. >> the person arrested by homeland security is a terrorist in our school last year was a was a student. and so that's where it's so important to have this information work with law enforcement. we're going to bring law and order back. it is sensible. it's common sense. >> so you'll only you'll only remove. are you saying you'll only remove children from schools if they are suspected terrorists? >> i'm saying that we're going to work with the trump administration to enforce their anti-illegal immigration policy. that includes giving them information about students in our schools, families enrolled in our schools so they can make the decisions on how to deport families together and how to identify criminals in our school system. >> superintendent, thank you so much for being with us. obviously, a lot of questions about how this is going to play out. a lot of people watching oklahoma, a lot of people in oklahoma with a lot of concern. superintendent ryan walters, thank you. >> thank you.

africa, again working to suppress the mpox outbreak in africa. that's currently an outbreak of marburg in tanzania and the united states works with the world health organization to suppress these outbreaks and keep those, you know, potential pathogens from coming to the united states. so i think, you know, the cdc wears many hats, but i think one of the most important hat hats it wears is that of an intelligence agency. and the intelligence it gets in terms of worldwide health threats to this country, in many cases, comes from from the w.h.o. i think the trump administration has had a lot of issues, perhaps with the handling of the worldwide management of the covid 19 pandemic and potentially how cozy the the world health organization has, has been to china. but if the us pulls out of the world health organization, it's going to

leave a big void. and who's going to fill that void? is it china? >> it is a significant question. and you're right. the administration is citing mishandling of the covid 19 pandemic, a failure to adopt reforms, an inability to remain independent, as you said, i do wonder if the administration is seeking to perhaps. persuade the w.h.o. into reforms or move them in a certain way. if this is the most effective method, and also what you make of those claims or those claims, well-founded. >> well, i think i think if you look at some of the statements made by the world health organization in the early weeks of the pandemic, they were strangely uh, supportive of and laudatory of the chinese, you know, efforts, efforts in the early, uh, early days of the pandemic.

and i think, i think they're. look, i think the world health organization is an imperfect entity, but they are a crucial partner for the united states. for instance, next month, uh, the cdc and the world health organization are scheduled to meet to talk about influenza strains that should be included in us vaccines, you know, for next year. so, again, this kind of collaborative health intelligence is crucial to the health of the united states. and i think pulling out of the world health organization threatens the health of the united states. look, the cdc, in conjunction with organizations like world health. organization, try to keep these sort of mini outbreaks of really lethal agents like marburg virus, which is which is a very nasty cousin of ebola from coming to the united states. and if we've learned anything from the covid pandemic is that it doesn't take

long for, uh, pathogens, new viruses to travel around the world. we're interconnected. there's no way to close the door. the door, you know, and trying to sort of pull back to the, you know, into, you know, our borders and pull out of organizations like the world health organization is like locking a screen door. >> mhm doctor jonathan reiner, doctor jonathan reiner very much appreciate you sharing your perspective with us my pleasure. >> thank you. >> still to come, thousands of palestinians displaced by the war in gaza are returning home now as the hamas cease fire and hostage deal with israel continues to hold. we have a live report for you from tel aviv. in just a few minutes. >> a sleep number smart bed is perfect for couples. the climate 360 smart bed is the only bed that cools and warms on each side, and all our smart beds adjust the firmness for each of you and now save 50% on the new

>> to travel to. >> washington and. >> meet with president trump. >> we're told that the. this meeting. >> could happen as. >> early as. >> next week, but it's certainly. >> expected in the coming weeks. >> if so. >> netanyahu would be the first. >> foreign leader to travel to the white house to meet with president trump since his inauguration. and that, of course, speaks to. >> the. importance of that. >> relationship for both men, really. this potential meeting would come at a critical time, not only as the ceasefire in gaza has now taken hold, as israel and hamas prepare to negotiate the next phases of the ceasefire, and questions abound about whether or not the cease fire will be extended beyond the six weeks, and whether all of the remaining hostages being held in gaza can ultimately be released. the israeli prime minister also has strategic foreign policy goals that he would like to achieve. there are discussions, of course, in israel about whether israel would carry out strikes against iran's nuclear facilities. we know the israeli prime minister obviously wants the u.s. president's support for that. and president trump has been

eyeing this broader regional cooperation between israel and saudi arabia. netanyahu is also at a pretty precarious political moment, as well as his right wing coalition expressed opposition to the cease fire agreement that we are now in a meeting with trump, could help him shore up some of the support that he has been losing from the right wing of israeli politics now. beyond that, we know that the israeli government has now learned from hamas that eight of the 33 hostages set to be released during this first phase of the agreement are indeed dead. israel has not confirmed exactly which of those hostages are among the eight, but obviously has transmitted to some of the families that they have serious concerns about the fate of their loved ones. we are expecting three hostages to be released this coming thursday, including one of the last female civilian hostages being held in gaza. arbel yehoud and the last female israeli soldier, agam berger, both set to be released

alongside a third hostage on thursday, and three more hostages set to be released on saturday. jeremy diamond, cnn, tel aviv. >> and still ahead, health officials in kansas city, kansas area are racing to contain the worst known outbreak of tuberculosis that the u.s. has seen in decades. we'll have that next. >> kobe the making. >> of a legend saturday at nine on cnn. for more than a decade. >> vasagar has been trusted. again and again and again. >> for s. e. cupp. >> ask your doctor about vasagar hi, i'm tony hawk and like many of you, i take a statin to reduce cholesterol. >> but statins can also deplete coq10 levels. that's what my doctor recommended. quinol. coq10 kunal has the number one cardiologist recommended form of coq10. kunal, the brand i trust. >> still have moderate to severe

this outbreak. officials in kansas say that so far there have been at least 67 people who have been confirmed to have active tuberculosis infections and 79 people have latent infections, meaning that they're infected. but it's not causing disease, they're not getting sick, so they're not able to spread the bacteria to others. but boris, as you mentioned, as part of this outbreak, sadly two lives have been lost and this is an ongoing outbreak and active investigation. officials do say that there could be more cases out there, but the overall risk to the general public is still very low for this to spread, you really need prolonged close contact. and we also know that the cases that have been identified are being treated. and health officials in kansas say they're working with and following cdc guidance. but again, boris, this is ongoing. so we can expect to hear more from kansas health officials moving forward. >> yeah, undoubtedly a situation to continue monitoring. i also

wonder how these new changes from the trump administration regarding health communications might be impacting the situation there and in other places. >> exactly. that's something that experts are kind of questioning and discussing at the moment, because when we see outbreaks like this, we sometimes do expect to hear from federal health agencies. and we have not heard information from the federal level regarding the outbreak in kansas. again, health officials in kansas say that they are working with and following cdc guidance, but many experts are saying that when we see outbreaks like this, it's helpful to get that national voice, to get that perspective on what this means nationally. so that is a discussion, boris, that's happening among experts at the moment, kind of thinking, discussing and speculating. how does the current halt on communications, how is that playing out with this current tuberculosis outbreak? >> jacqueline howard, thanks so
