6:00 am
because sometimes they become your greatest strengths. >> now, she's daring to say it. from tips and treatments to how to talk to men about menopause. there is a part in the book that actually made me crack up. oh, good. >> i wanted humor to, you know, because we know there's suffering. we know there's pain points. but it's not all doom and gloom. >> the part that made me kind of chuckle is when you tell your partner that you have menopause, and how that happened. can you tell that story? >> it was at the point where we were coming close together physically and i remembered that i had my patch on. hormone patch, hormone patch, and so i slipped away right in the heat of the moment. and i was probably in there a little bit too long, panicking, because if anyone's ever worn a patch, they're very the adhesive is very sticky. um, so i was
6:01 am
scrubbing and scrubbing myself raw, and, um, and then i just thought, i've just got to confess. i've just got to say it. and i came out and he's like, are you okay? you don't seem okay. and i was like, trying to dance around it. and eventually i just said, look, i'm in menopause. and i have to wear this patch, and it's because it regulates my hormone. should i just leave? should i just go, you know? oh, and and he was like, what? no. what do you mean? we're the same age, naomi. >> and at 56, her coming of age story is not the one hollywood usually tells her goal to lift the stigma of a natural change. half the world's population will experience.
6:02 am
>> all right. we are standing by for u.s. stock markets to open. you can see futures weigh down over new fears over tariffs from president trump. what one republican senator called a tax on u.s. consumers. prices could go up on cars, electronics, cell phones, fruits, vegetables, avocados in super bowl week. and where is the water? president trump bragging about a release in california. but local officials say it is not at all what he claims it is. sarah is out. i'm john berman with kate bolduan. this is cnn news central. >> happening right now. stock futures are down as u.s. markets are about to open. this comes as america's biggest trading partners say they are being forced to retaliate against president trump's new tariffs.
6:03 am
tariffs that he now admits for the first time really will cause the american people pain. still, president trump saying it will be worth it. starting tomorrow, canada and mexico mexico are looking at a 25% tariffs on goods, and china is staring down an additional 10% tariff on goods. president trump is going to be speaking with canadian and mexican leaders this morning. but the president has already said he is not expecting anything to come of those conversations. so say hello to your trade war, i guess. cnn's kevin liptak at the white house for us this morning. kevin, what are you hearing from the white house this morning? >> yeah. i mean, at least when you listen to donald trump, it does not sound as if an 11th hour reprieve will be coming. he says he doesn't expect anything dramatic to come from his conversations with justin trudeau and claudia sheinbaum today. but i think when you're talking about donald trump, you can never rule out a last minute change of heart. and it was interesting to hear just last hour from kevin hassett. he's one of the top economists here
6:04 am
at the white house who said that there had been positive conversations, at least with mexican officials, over the weekend. and he says that once president trump sees what these countries have to offer, it will be up to him to make the call. so certainly, i think these next several hours will be intense ones as americans look to see whether or not these tariffs will go into effect and whether or not prices could increase on all manner of goods that they're consuming large goods like automobiles and refrigerators, but also smaller items like produce, avocados, things that are shipped directly from chinese manufacturers, from companies like shein and temu. all of these things could have a significant effect on americans pocketbooks, and that's a reality that donald trump himself is acknowledging. listen to what he said. >> we may have short term, some little pain and people understand that. but long term,
6:05 am
the united states has been ripped off by virtually every country in the world. we have deficits with almost every country. not every country, but almost. and we're going to change it. it's been unfair. that's why we owed $36 trillion. >> trillion dollars. >> so essentially what trump is saying there is that in order to fulfill his campaign promises on curbing flows of migrants and drugs across the border, he will. another of his campaign promises, perhaps his biggest campaign promise, which was lowering prices on americans, may just have to wait. >> yeah. and for how long? that now becomes a real question. thank you so much, kevin. good to see you, john. >> all right. with us now is the executive director of mish auto at the detroit regional chamber. glenn stevens junior. sir, thank you so much for joining us. auto is basically a trade group representing auto makers. what will these tariffs mean for americans who want to buy cars?
6:06 am
>> thanks for having us. >> on this morning, john. >> well, this is a very resilient industry. >> we've been doing. >> this for over 120. >> years in michigan. >> but what we don't. >> do well is. >> with is. disruption short. >> term. >> disruption or long. >> term disruption? >> disruption and. >> eventually input. >> costs go up. >> tariffs do increase. >> the cost of doing business. >> parts move back and forth across our borders here in michigan and. >> ontario every day. and eventually that shows. >> up in the consumer price, in the showroom. >> costs go up. cars will be more expensive. >> absolutely. >> how long will that take to manifest? >> well, that. >> takes time. it's not over. >> overnight. >> but again, these these supply chains, particularly between canada and mexico, are very interconnected. um, it's a just in time type of business. parts move multiple times just in windsor, in detroit across the
6:07 am
border to build up components. if they're taxed. um, and if input costs go up, in fact, including fuel prices, that has to get passed through. it takes time to move through the system. but if this is prolonged and we hope it's not, and based on some of the things we're hearing this morning, i'm optimistic about that. but if it is prolonged, it'll get painful. >> um, you mentioned how interconnected everything is. car manufacturing, sometimes a car, depending on what type of car or where it's built it, parts of it can cross the border several times before it even gets to the consumer. correct? yes, yes. >> i mean, if you just look at detroit, we have two assembly plants in detroit, 12 overall in michigan. there are multiple assembly plants in ontario. one major one for stellantis in windsor. and there's a canadian component makers, uh, u.s. manufacturers and mexican manufacturers. they all work together. thousands of components come together. it just takes one to disrupt things. but, you know, major
6:08 am
disruption across the board. um, it's it's a problem because these components get built up. they get built up into modules, and eventually they go into this plant. very complex, very tight margin, very long lead time business. and it doesn't do well with disruption. >> and again, just so people understand here who is paying when there is a tariff which will go into effect tonight i guess who pays that first. is this something you know is canadian prime minister justin trudeau writing a check for this? who's paying that tariff? >> no, the manufacturers and the importer of record pays that tariff. so, um, as, again, these parts are built up and eventually it's it's and it could be a finished vehicle. it could be a finished vehicle that moves across the border between the u.s. and canada, the u.s. and mexico. and there's a tariff applied on that. um, it's paid ultimately by the consumer. um, we're not against tariffs. we believe tariffs should be
6:09 am
deployed, but we also want commerce to move freely. and right now, as it appears, we're going to have a real big problem with really a trade agreement that has worked very well. and president trump really led that under usmca. >> who benefits from these terrorists if they go into effect tonight well, there's a lot of rhetoric that's going on about why these are being done, and i don't want to get into that, but nobody benefits right now, certainly not in the short term. >> and again, it's a complex business. you can't build a new manufacturing plant overnight. it takes a couple of years really to do that. so you can't change the supply chain dramatically either. so no one benefits from this right now. >> all right glenn stevens jr.. it could be a busy day for you and a busy few weeks depending on what happens. thank you so much for your time. kate. >> also this morning, the fbi agents association is telling thousands of fbi employees do not resign as some fear that
6:10 am
mass firings are coming. multiple sources tell cnn the justice department is now demanding that fbi employees fill out a questionnaire. 12 question survey providing detail on any involvement that they had investigating the january 6th attack on the capitol. cnn's security correspondent and former fbi agent josh campbell is following this one very closely for us. and, josh, what are you hearing about this survey and what it can mean now for everyone at the fbi? >> yeah, kate, certainly a five alarm fire right now inside the fbi with thousands of career fbi agents, analysts, professional staff now concerned that their own job is in jeopardy. and that's because we've seen already the trump administration, the department of justice clearing out the executive management of the fbi. and now, as you just mentioned, we reported yesterday, employees started getting this email in their inbox saying you must fill out this survey about what your role was specifically in the january 6th insurrection
6:11 am
investigation, which was obviously a massive, sprawling investigation from coast to coast. and so the concern here is that because of this information being requested, that we could see yet another round of firings and again, not political appointees, but career fbi employees. now, the fbi agents association, which represents thousands of agents on the job, actually sent guidance to their employees saying do not voluntarily leave. i'll read you part of what they said. they said, do not resign or offer to resign. while we would never advocate for physical noncompliance, you need to be clear your removal is not voluntary. they later went on to say employees carrying out their duties to investigate allegations of criminal activity with integrity and within the rule of law should never be treated as those who have engaged in actual misconduct. now, of course, the fbi has come under fire from the trump administration, who's he's obviously claimed that they investigated him unfairly and has pardoned several of the january 6th insurrectionists. but, you know, employees continue to point out to me that these were lawfully predicated investigations that went through
6:12 am
the courts. so you had those layers of oversight. now, one thing that's interesting is that if you recall recently, kash patel, who is the nominee for fbi director, he was testifying before congress and said that there will be no retribution. have a listen. >> every fbi employee will be held to the absolute same standard, and no one will be terminated for case assignment. all fbi employees will be protected against political. >> they deserve. >> so the big question here, kate, is, is he in the know? does he know what the justice department is trying to do as they possibly prepare to fire many, many fbi employees? a lot of questions. and of course, the big concern that people continue to raise is that we are in this heightened threat environment. and so you can imagine, you know, getting rid of a bunch of fbi employees whose job is to try to counter these threats, obviously could pose a threat to america's safety. that's what fbi officials are telling us. >> josh campbell, thanks for the reporting. josh. john. >> all right. a key piece of evidence has been recovered in the investigation into the mid-air crash over the potomac.
6:13 am

6:17 am
>> so today crews are going to begin a new phase of the recovery operation in the potomac river. really starting to remove the wreckage of the passenger plane and helicopter that collided mid-air last week, killing 67 people. and the third and final so-called black box, the one actually from the blackhawk helicopter, has now been recovered. cnn's gabe cohen is live at reagan national airport. for much more on where things stand. gabe, a lot, a lot happened over the weekend and continues with the investigation into all of this. where are things standing this morning? >> well. >> kate, i want to start with that salvage operation, the lift

operation that. >> you. >> referenced. >> because i have just. gotten word that it is now underway this. >> morning. >> plans for crews. >> to remove at least part. of the plane's fuselage from. >> the potomac river. today. >> we have seen that heavy equipment that has assembled at the wreckage site, including. >> a. >> crane. >> so. >> that work. >> just starting this morning. >> and they're hoping that by. >> moving the. >> wreckage out of the water. >> they. >> are going to be. >> able to. >> find those 12. >> victims that are still missing in the water. we know that. crews have. >> recovered and. >> identified 55 others. dc's fire chief, who is heading. >> this operation. >> i asked. >> him. >> how confident is he that as part of that. salvage operation, they will. >> be able. >> to find all of. >> those missing victims? >> take a listen. here's what. >> he told me. >> so it. >> is my belief that we're going to recover everyone. if we knew. where they were, though, we would. >> we would already have. >> them out. so we have some. >> work. >> to do. as the salvage. >> operation goes. >> on and we will absolutely stay here and search. and until
6:19 am
such point. >> as we have. >> everybody and kate. >> as for the. >> investigation. >> over the weekend, we started to. >> see investigators. >> start to put. >> some of the pieces. >> of this. >> puzzle together. >> we know. >> that they got their preliminary. data off of the black. boxes that were on board the jet. >> a couple. >> important findings. >> one is that. >> it appears. >> the plane was starting. to pitch. >> up in the last second or. >> so before the. >> collision. >> perhaps indicating that the pilots. >> on board the plane. >> saw that black hawk in those final. >> seconds tried to avert. >> a disaster. >> but it was just too late. they have. also learned. >> from that data that. >> it appears the jet was at an altitude. >> of around. >> 325ft when the collision occurred. now that's early data. they are still reviewing the black box from the black hawk, but that height, 325ft, that is significant. >> kate. >> because the helicopter route along the potomac. helicopters are not. supposed to be flying any more than.
6:20 am
>> about 200ft. >> off the ground. so if that black hawk was 300 plus feet in the air, investigators. are going. >> to want to. >> know why. there are also. questions about faa staffing. we have learned that an air traffic controller that night was essentially doing two jobs at once. although, kate, i will tell you, a source has told our team that that is not particularly uncommon, but it speaks to how many questions are still out there remaining about what exactly led to this crash. we are hoping, perhaps to get a briefing, an update from ntsb investigators a. >> little later today. >> kate. but at this point, we're just waiting for information. >> absolutely. and you put it all together that all the preliminary data really presents so many questions. that does need to be sussed out from the ntsb and their meticulous investigation. gabe, thank you so much. coming up for us, an expanded mission for marines now at guantanamo bay, troops arriving to handle tens of

6:26 am
published documents and texts related to the case online. he has already filed a $400 million lawsuit against lively and her husband, actor ryan reynolds. earlier, lively accused baldoni of sexual harassment and retaliation. the two were costars in the film. it ends with us. cnn's elizabeth wagmeister in los angeles going to court today. elizabeth. >> if this sounds like a mess, john, it's because it is a mess. so after this has been playing out in the court of public opinion since blake lively first filed her complaint in december, now, this, as you said, is finally heading to actually a court of law. so just in a few hours it will be the first hearing in this trial which has been set for 2026. so we have a ways to go. but what has happened in this lead up is that there has been a lot of so-called evidence that has been issued or leaked to the media.
6:27 am
so over this past weekend, john justin baldoni's lawyer, he actually launched a website where he put the complaint and a timeline that's 168 pages on this website so that it's easily accessible for the public. now, these are already publicly filed documents, so you could get them through the court system. but now all of these fans who are obsessed with this story and eating it up, they can just read through all of these texts and all of these pages of these legal documents. now, where this started again was in december. blake lively, she filed a civil rights complaint in california. she alleged that justin baldoni sexually assaulted her on the set of the film. it ends with us. and then after that, she suffered career retaliation because he led a smear campaign. now, on the other side, justin baldoni is saying, not so fast. you are actually the one who is trying to destroy my career. and you took over the film, which
6:28 am
you were hired as an actress, and i was the director. so again, this is a mess. this is a very public hollywood battle, and it's very rare for stars of this stature to be letting all their dirty laundry air in the public. but again, as of now, this is going to court in 2026. the big question is, will this settle? will we actually see them on the stand? but the documents that were published this past weekend, john, they did mention ryan reynolds, who is blake lively's husband, of course. so now he is in this mess too. and justin baldoni has sued both of them for $400 million. he also previously sued the new york times for $250 million, because they were the first to report on this entire saga. >> a lot of money at stake, a lot of reputations at stake. hard to see where this goes. really. elizabeth wagmeister, thank you very much, kate. >> israeli prime minister benjamin netanyahu is in washington right now, and he is
6:29 am
getting set to meet with president trump tomorrow, making netanyahu the first foreign leader invited to the white house. in donald trump's second term, the focus of the visit negotiations for the next phase of the hostage and ceasefire deal between israel and hamas. and over the weekend, more signs of success. from that agreement. hamas released three more hostages saturday after 484 days in captivity. keith siegel, yarden bibas and ofer kalderon were returned to their families, and it was an emotional reunion for ofir and his wife. you're seeing some video of it right here. two of his their young children, erez and sahar, were also taken hostage on october 7th. they were freed last november. and joining us right now is a relative of ofir a.b. own. she's an american citizen who lives in israel. five of her family members were either killed or taken hostage in the hamas terror attack. a.b., thank
6:30 am
you so much for joining me yet again. having a finally returned home on saturday. can you share anything with us on how he is doing and how the family is doing? >> look. >> i think. >> you see me smiling. >> for. >> the first. >> time since we've ever. >> spoken, which. >> says so. >> much. >> um. >> you see in the videos when he. >> comes back. >> i think. >> he asked me many times to. >> describe him. >> and i always told you that he's the person. >> that's going to lighten. >> the room. >> and. >> make people laugh. and from the moment that he got off the helicopter, he was making the military laugh. >> and. >> his crew laugh and his children and his brother and the amount of resilience and strength to come out of that horrific. situation and immediately be able to make people feel joy and laughter was everything we're showing the video of the moment that ophir and his wife saw each other and
6:31 am
were able to embrace at the hospital. >> i mean, you and i have spoken so many times about how the family was holding up and even capable of holding on to hope. having affair, and hoping that even ophir was still alive and would someday be released. i mean, how does it feel? how does it feel for you? >> it feels. >> so emotional. it it's you go between crying and joy and relief and also the deep understanding that he endured and survived those 484 days, and that we have to do everything possible to make sure that the 79. >> that are. >> still there come home. because what he went through was awful. he's, you know, he's now still in the hospital. he's weak. his sense of humor is strong, but it really underscores exactly how horrible the situation there is and how much we need to keep the pressure on to make sure the next phase of the deal
6:32 am
continues. >> i actually was looking back at one of our previous conversations when we were talking about erez and sahar, after they had been released, and you were telling me that i asked how they were doing on the anniversary, and you had said that they're in one piece physically, but nothing gets better until their father is home and now he is. what is the road like ahead for your entire family? >> you know, before sahar was released, she saw ofir in the tunnels and he said, fight for me. i don't i don't want to die here. i need you to fight for me. and sahar fought for him. what she's saying to him in those videos is, i did it, i fought, and you're back. and now what we know is, you know, ofra still has a physical journey to to work on. but now they, as a family have closed this circle and they can begin the emotional and psychological journey that they will need to take as a family. but for us,
6:33 am
for us as a an extended family, our chapter is full circle and we feel even more motivation to keep fighting to make sure that other families have this moment and other families have this closure. >> prime minister, as i mentioned, is in washington to focus on this next phase going to be meeting with with president trump. and it was very evident during president trump's inaugural events that hostage families were front and center. many times in those events. what do you hope is the message that is conveyed? what do you hope the focus is? what would you say to these two men if you could if, as they prepare to sit down tomorrow? >> first, i mean, i'm grateful to this administration, to all the administrations that have worked to make this happen. and i would say to keep the pressure on that it is a human value and
6:34 am
a jewish value to save a life. and there are 79 israeli citizens still in gaza, 36 of whom we believe are not alive. but every single one of them is a world, and they need to be returned to their family. and there there is no rebuilding, not from an emotional or physical or a strategic point of view for israel. until those people are home. and i would just urge them to stay in this lane and to keep pushing and to make sure they do whatever it takes to bring these people home. it's been too long, it is too hard and too awful for the people that are being kept against their will. and this takes political courage. and i believe that if if the two of them can come together, they can continue to show that. >> abbi, thank you so much for coming on. it is wonderful to see your smile. thank you. >> happy to be here. >> thank you. thank you. >> thanks for having. >> me, john. >> all right. we do have breaking news. moments ago, the stock markets open and you can
6:35 am

6:40 am
and retaliate. cnn business editor at large. the one and only richard quest is here to help us through it. this doesn't look good. what's today going to bring? >> well. >> this is where we start. and as i've said many times, where we start isn't where we finish. the problem with these numbers, the problem is. that they haven't fully priced. >> in all. >> the tariffs. they haven't priced in the retaliation. by canada. they haven't factored in the post retaliation. retaliation. in other words, this is the initial salvo. this isn't the for tat as it gets worse. and you know, it's tempting to say, oh, look at this, blah blah blah. but this makes perfect sense if you think of the sheer vast swathes, hundreds of billions of dollars worth of goods being on both sides that are going to be hit, this makes perfect sense because what is a stock price? the stock price is a barometer of a company's current and future
6:41 am
earnings. they will go down. it's about economic growth. i don't know how many times we can say it. and bear in mind if we just think about the countries that were now involved canada, mexico, china. he's threatened the eu, he's threatened panama, he said. the uk possibly. and on it goes. >> yeah. so i had someone who represents the distilled spirits industry on. they were talking about how bad they're going to get hit. but the auto industry seems to be particularly fragile in this moment. what's going on? >> right. imagine you're canada. and imagine i'm the united states, and i'm a car that's being made now as the because of both decades of the north american free trade agreement and usmca. now, these cars between detroit and windsor and right the way along here, they go backwards and forwards and they go backwards and forwards. it's estimated roughly eight times the different parts. exactly, exactly. you are talking about the ultimate, the absolute epitome of integrated. >> it's going to be hit every time.
6:42 am
>> of course, if you're going to start hitting, you know, it might be the lights from it might be the lights from the u.s., it might be the ignition from canada, it might be the combustion xyz, it might be the thrust reverse titillator from your side. i don't know what it is. all i know is that as that car goes backwards and forwards, those tariffs get put back on again and again and again. as justin trudeau said this in canada, everybody's saying it. the president admits there will be pain. >> for the first time. he's admitting the reality that you have said, and everyone has said all along. but here's my question. >> go on. please. oh, look. >> there we go. wall street journal calls this the dumbest trade war in history. yeah, but here's the thing. i don't get how there is no measure or metric that has been stated yet of what is progress enough to claw this back, end this, and say all is well now. we no longer are going to remove these tariffs. how does this end if that is not stated? >> well, i think i mean, the president has said that when
6:43 am
they see evidence of fentanyl being reduced from canada and mexico, by the way, all 48 pounds of it, right. >> i mean, there's like none coming from canada. >> so then you talk about immigration and then now you're talking about a trade imbalance, which could take months if not years to sort of rebalance. i think it's going to be a pyrrhic victory. it is when canada and or mexico prostrate themselves and say, yes, we will do whatever it takes. very similar to the colombia incident. when you see enough that will satisfy the president's view of success. we don't know what that barometer is, but i'm guessing it involves an element of groveling. i suspect it involves an element of you were right, we were wrong. and there's going to have to be some form of concessions. then they'll change. but in the meantime. oh, look at that. down 513 points. this makes, by the way, to anybody who covers business and economics and have done it for 35 or 40 years. this
6:44 am
makes perfect sense because all the dow. >> anything else you would be freaking out like this. >> makes sense. the dow stocks everything from three m to the text to the industrials to the financials. they're all going to be hit. i would suspect we're going to just see this could go on for days. >> bloodbath. thank you richard. >> pleasure. well not pleasure but you know what. >> i mean. always a pleasure to see your face at least. >> all right. >> that was a pleasure connected to all of this today. the u.s. defense secretary, pete hegseth, goes to the southern border, his first visit there since he was confirmed. he will meet with military members in el paso, working to support the president's border crackdown. with us now, democratic congressman adriano espaillat. he chairs the congressional hispanic caucus and is the first formerly undocumented member of congress, as we said. congressman, i mean, this is all connected right now. donald trump is imposing these tariffs because he says he wants to see some as to now unspecified action from canada and mexico on fentanyl and the border. do you know what he wants? >> well, as we all see that the
6:45 am
markets are taking a beating. right. and the militarization of the border and the criminalization of of migrants, i think is a wrong step. i think we could manage the border. we all agree that the border needs to be safer. there has to be a delicate balance. we believe very strongly in dreamers, farm workers and families. also, our three main issues the congressional hispanic caucus, dreamers that have been here for some time, they're nurses, teachers, homeowners, business owners, farmers because they put food on our table. and the food, by the way, at our cash register, may be more expensive if they don't go to work. and finally, keeping families together. so yes, a stronger border. but let's also have a delicate balance. >> so you say a stronger border. that raises the question that's been raised in some of the papers this morning. what is the democratic position? if you had to state and say, hi, i'm here, i'm chair of the congressional democratic caucus. i'm a senior democratic member of the u.s. house. i'm asking you, what's the democratic position on illegal immigration? what would you say?
6:46 am
>> i'd say we make the border safer and stronger. but there are issues that i think are so important to our nation that really are front and center with our values. and those are dreamers, farm workers and keeping families together. >> and then what republicans say is we're going after the criminals. >> well, we are going after the criminals right now. there's 170 laws in our penal code that will guarantee that if you committed a violent crime, you will be arrested, convicted and deported. but they're casting out a wider net to catch and deport those people. that maybe jumped the turnstile or have committed a nonviolent offense. that's a little bit too much. >> what do you feel or how do you feel about opening up this space on guantanamo bay for migrants? >> those folks are not enemy combatants. you know, guantanamo bay traditionally has been a place where enemy combatants and in fact, terrorists have been kept. they were waterboarded. and other types of tactics were used that were not totally in
6:47 am
agreement with. but then a mom and her kids are not necessarily enemy combatants. >> it has been used before for a flow, for the flow of migrants, you know, in and out. i mean, it's not just for. >> terrorists, not a good place. i think we could handle it locally in a humane and the congressional hispanic caucus will keep this administration accountable. and we will ask for humane treatment of a mom and her children that are perhaps fleeing violence or a violent gang. >> well, to that point, the administration is revoking the temporary protected status for venezuelans. how do you feel about that? >> well, venezuela is a rough place, right? a rough neighborhood, and sending them back there, people that perhaps are now working because they got work permits is a bad decision for america, a bad decision for the hemisphere. >> one question. on january 6th, cnn and others are reporting that members of the fbi, pretty much all of them, received a questionnaire asking them questions about what they did in the january 6th investigation.
6:48 am
for those who attacked the capitol. how do you feel about that? >> we all know what happened january 6th, because many of the police officers, both the capitol police and the metropolitan washington, d.c. police department have testified. i know sergeant gonell aquilino gonell, a national hero, by the way. not only did he protect democracy, but he protected members of congress, both democrats and republicans. i went to the ways and means committee room, and i saw the republicans huddle up in a corner, afraid of their own supporters, and sergeant gonell and others were there to protect all of us. >> congressman espaillat, thank you so much for being with us this morning. appreciate it. >> thank you. thank you so much. >> all right. so trump administration officials began releasing billions of gallons of water across california. but the question is, was this the right water going to the right place?

6:53 am
physicians mutual call or visit send info kit. com for all the details. >> physicians mutual, physicians. >> mutual. >> the source with caitlin collins tonight at nine. >> all right. this morning the president is touting the release of water from dams in central california. he ordered it this weekend. and this was said to be in response to the fires. but what water are we talking about exactly? and where is it going exactly? because local officials say something very different. let's get right to cnn chief climate correspondent bill weir. good morning. >> good morning guys. as if the water problems in california weren't bad. >> enough, we now have the army corps of engineers following the
6:54 am
orders of a commander in chief. >> who. seems to have. >> a toddler's grasp of how water works in california. >> he keeps talking about. >> some giant faucet that. >> gavin newsom could just open and bring all the water from canada, that none of. >> that. >> exists in reality. >> so what happened over the weekend was water managers. >> in tulare county. >> got an hour's. >> notice that the. >> army. corps was. opening these dams. >> with such force, they would create basically full capacity of these rivers, the kind that comes in flash floods, that ruins homes and potentially drowns people who don't know this is coming. local lawmakers push back. they they closed the dam, almost shut, and then they opened it again, sort of a middle ground right now. and they put out these statements that continue to prop up just abject lies about the way the state works with water. this water will end up hundreds of miles from southern california mountain ranges away from l.a. and the fires there are fully contained. and it had nothing to do with water shortage battling those flames. it was 100 mile an hour winds. it was dozens of trucks trying to tap the same municipal systems, which is a problem in cities around the
6:55 am
world. as wildfires get more intense. but here again, president trump refuses. and what's most disturbing is in the first term, he talked about water in this way, and there were probably people who could hold him back and talk him out of these decisions. but this could have potentially devastating effects for farmers in the spring, when the summer when they need that water. >> so is it clear what happens now? >> no it's not. nobody's getting any answers. senator padilla sent a letter to pete hegseth trying to get answers. who ordered this? what are you doing? all my constituents, private landowners, everybody is like. >> where's the person who steps in and says, hold on, people? >> well, that's what we're seeing, that in all levels of government. but here it is in the army corps of engineers, and it seems the only motivation is for him to post something on social media and say, see, i opened the water. look at it, look at it flowing beautifully. there will be billions of gallons down there. they should have listened to me. that water will go nowhere near the fire zone. >> what happens to the water? >> it evaporates. it evaporates. you remember tulare lake came back from the dead a few years ago when there were these atmospheric rivers and these
6:56 am
farmlands turned to water. it's going into low lying areas like that. and there are no pumps. there are no aqueducts to get that stuff anywhere usable. and all of those, every drop of that is accounted for by farmers who are doing the math. they're thinking, if we have another dry summer, man, we need that. and the snowpack is low enough that it will only fill their lakes about half capacity right now. so it's a delicate balance. there are water concerns, but not the ones that the president is talking about right now. >> all right. something that bears watching for sure. you know, the farmers are. bill. thank you very much. >> yeah. thanks, bill. seriously, thank you so much. um, and thank you all so much for joining us today. this is cnn news central. cnn newsroom up next. >> i've got good news and i've got bad news. what do you want first? the bad the news is newsy even more than ever. >> what's the good news? >> we're doing another season of have i got news for you. >> have i got news for you returns february 15th on cnn. >> i told. >> you, you.
