christian folks. >> it's an important discussion going forward. reverend paul brandeis, raushenbush, we appreciate you being here. >> thank you. >> thank you, kate. >> this morning, the nfl has confirmed that a protester who appeared during kendrick lamar's halftime show at the super bowl was actually one of the hired background dancers. a protester unfurled a combined palestinian sudanese flag. it happened near the end of the halftime show. he was tackled and removed by security. eventually, the nfl now says that the dancer acted without the coordination of showrunners and had hidden the flag before the performance, saying no one involved with the production was aware of the individual's intent. he was tackled by security, as i mentioned, and will be banned for life from nfl stadiums and events. so i didn't know this was a thing, but it is a thing. a giant blockage of fat grease and rags in a sewer has forced grammy winning singer bryan adams to cancel a sold out show in perth, australia. authorities warned that what they have dubbed the

fatberg could have caused the venue's toilets to overflow and pose a serious health hazard if the concert went on and took place. fans said they were left waiting for hours outside the stadium before they learned that the show was actually canceled. so there's that problem. fatbergs apparently form over time as items that cannot be broken down are flushed or washed down drains. instead of being disposed of properly. the more you know. time to gather up all of those pennies collecting dust in your drawers. president trump has ordered the treasury secretary to stop producing the coins, saying that they cost just too much to make. the u.s. mint says each penny costs nearly $0.04 to produce. that's not to talk about how much it costs the nickel to be produced. it's unclear if donald trump can actually has the power to do this. add that to the growing list. fitting into that category. a new hour of cnn news central starts now. >> so we're standing by for legal arguments on whether the

white house plan for so-called buyouts, whether that plan is against the law. as new questions are raised on whether the president will even obey legal rulings. so a huge day for metals. new tariffs on steel and aluminum. and you just heard kate talk about a major developments for zinc and copper. the president announces he wants the mint to stop making pennies. and this morning, multiple zoo animals dead in a shutdown of live poultry markets amid a bird flu outbreak. how worried should you be? i'm john berman with kate baldwin and sara sidner. this is cnn news center. >> in just hours, a judge will hold a hearing on whether trump's so-called buyout offer to federal employees is actually legal. trump administration has given the employees until the end of the day today to accept or reject the deal or face the potential of being fired. last week, the same federal judge

pushed trump's deadline to tonight after pausing the administration's move. that ruling will have a massive impact on the president's plan as he tries to gut and reshape the government plans, led by billionaire elon musk and his government efficiency team. cnn's paula reid is joining me now. we've already heard once from this judge. now, the question is, what will happen in this particular ruling, which could potentially be a far bigger ruling, depending on what the judge says. >> yes, sara, this is a huge day, not only for the trump administration. but also for the federal employees who are contemplating whether they should accept this deferred resignation offer. now, this judge is being asked to delay this. he already delayed it once from last thursday to today. he's being asked to extend this deadline. but remember, a lot of unions are encouraging their employees not to accept this offer, questioning the legality. i mean, in theory, this offer says that if you resign from your job, that you will be paid through september. but the unions have said it's not clear

that the trump administration, the government, has the authority to make good on that. so they've been encouraging their employees not to agree to this. so the judge today being asked not only to decide, okay, what's the final deadline for this, but also to get from the government assurances that they can actually enforce this. the unions have called this offer an arbitrary, unlawful and short fuzed ultimatum. now, as we've seen, most of the trump policies have been challenged in court. usually these challenges are filed in places where the challenger expects that they will win, that the trump policy will be blocked, at least temporarily. but one thing that's been really interesting in covering this particular case is when you talk to employees who are contemplating this, they're not necessarily looking at the litigation and what the courts are doing. a lot of people say, look, if i don't take this offer, i'm worried that i could get fired for cause somehow people are worried about losing their pensions. so certainly the immediate impact of just putting this offer out

there has been instilling a lot of fear in government workers. >> paula, i'm not sure that you can still hear me, but what what does come next for the federal workers knowing that actually in march, there is going to be a vote on whether or not to fund the government as a whole. >> it's a great question. yes, i can hear you. i have my my ifb came out of my ear, but i can still hear. look, obviously this is going to continue to be litigated, right? whoever loses in boston will likely appeal this up. the food chain. now, it's possible you might get some clarity from the government and some assurances about the legitimacy of this buyout. but this offer, the fact that even unions aren't sure about it, the looming possibility of a government shutdown in a few months. all of this again, it has created so much chaos and confusion, which really manifests itself in fear of federal workers trying to make sure that they can pay their mortgage, buy their groceries. as there's so much uncertainty around their jobs. and really,

the only shred of certainty they're likely to get is from the courts. but it takes time to get the final word on a lot of these big questions. >> yeah. and we know that you will be watching what happens in court today. we'll be paying attention to all of that. paula reid, thank you so much. appreciate you coming on this morning. kate. >> also today president trump is set to announce new tariffs on all steel and aluminum imports coming into the united states. the president says that he's also planning to separately announce this week new reciprocal tariffs to match what other countries have on u.s. goods, dollar for dollar, every country, he suggests. cnn's alayna treene has more from the white house that's right. >> the president said yesterday that he is planning on implementing 25% tariffs on all steel and aluminum coming into the united states. just the latest overhaul of united states trade policy. but i think one thing to keep in mind here is how this is going to impact the united states trading partners, specifically our northern and southern neighbors, both canada

and mexico, are some of the largest suppliers of steel to united states. that's in addition to brazil and south korea and vietnam. but of course, it comes after the president had hit pause on some of the blanket 25% tariffs. he was initially saying he was going to impose on canada and mexico, saying that he wanted to work out an agreement. so of course, this is just the latest escalation to, you know, those negotiations after he had hit pause on that. but another thing to keep in mind as well is canada is the largest supplier by a large margin of primary aluminum metal to the united states, accounting for more than 70%. so again, canada really going to feel the brunt of a lot of this. i also want to remind you that we saw the president do something similar during his first term. he had imposed tariffs of 25% on steel, 10% on aluminum. however, the difference there was that it wasn't blanket. he did have some exemptions with different countries. so really the key question of course today is what

will that look like? we know when it comes to tariff and trade policy. the devil is really in the details. so we have to kind of stay tuned to see what the impacts of that could be and how this is going to actually work out. another thing that we heard the president say this weekend is that he is planning, at some point this week on imposing reciprocal tariffs on other countries, essentially saying that any country who puts a tariff on the united states, we are going to hit them back with the same type of tariff. take a listen to how he put it. >> i'll be announcing probably tuesday or wednesday at a news conference. reciprocal tariffs. and very simply, if they charge us, we charge them. >> that's all. when is it going to impact? >> almost immediately. if they are charging us 130% and we're charging them nothing, it's not going to stay that. >> way. >> now, without naming specific countries, the president said that he would potentially be open to some exemptions if he could work out some sort of satisfactory agreement with these countries. but again, i

think one of the key things that we're all waiting for is what will the impact be on american consumers? we know wall street economists, people on capitol hill, including republicans, many of them warning that the impact is really going to be felt on american consumers and their wallets directly. so really waiting to see what exactly this is going to look like. and if there are any sort of exceptions in the details of that, when he announces them later today. >> all right. thanks to alayna treene for that. so this morning, the president is standing by elon musk and pushing him to find new ways to slash spending, even as courts have stepped in and paused a lot of musk's actions over questions on legality. >> i'm going to tell him very soon. like maybe in 24 hours, to go check the department of education. he's going to find the same thing. then i'm going to go go to the military. let's check the military. we're going to find billions, hundreds of billions of dollars. >> all right. with us now is congresswoman val hoyle, a

democrat from oregon who was a member of the bipartisan doge caucus, a group of bipartisan representatives trying to support at least the the spirit of the efforts from elon musk, the so-called doge caucus. but now, congresswoman, you have left that group. what pushed you over the edge? why? >> well, i think. >> that there's two. >> different missions. >> certainly the. >> bipartisan group, most of my colleagues, i would say, truly want to find efficiency in government. right. we have three different branches of government. and as a legislative branch, we came here to be good stewards of taxpayer dollars to make good policy and again, work in good faith to find efficiencies, whether that's. investing in it. >> or. >> you know, combining agencies or departments, you know, making. >> sure. >> we don't have too much bureaucracy. but fundamentally, you can't do that while government is being blown up from the inside. and let's be

clear, donald trump and elon musk have a different mission. they say it's about efficiency and saving taxpayer dollars. it isn't. >> it's about. >> intimidating workers, breaking our government and installing loyalists that are loyal to donald trump and elon musk, and not to the american people or the constitution. >> so some courts have stepped in and paused or blocked some of the efforts by musk here. over the weekend, elon musk retweeted this comment about judicial activity. it reads, quote, i don't like the precedent it sets. would you defy judicial rulings? but i'm just wondering what other options are these judges leaving us if they're going to blatantly disregard the constitution for their own partisan political goals? it seems to raise the possibility of ignoring legal rulings. what about what do you think about that? >> well, and jd vance, i think it was this weekend also said,

you know, how dare the courts tell our attorney general what she can and can't do that's unconstitutional. they're throwing these words around. they're using the cover of, you know, again, efficiencies and the constitution when they are blatantly disregarding it. we have a separation of the branches of government so that we have checks and balances. and what is really concerning. and every american, regardless of party, should be concerned with is that this unelected billionaire, donald trump and his administration have made it clear that they don't intend to follow the rulings of the court if the court doesn't go along with what they say, that's concerning. and as a member of congress, i was elected to represent my people. i swore an oath to the constitution. and i'm really hoping that my republican colleagues will find a backbone and stop bending the knee and do the job that they were elected to do.

>> what? what can you do about this? there are some raising the possibility of shutting down the government in march, when some of these funding bills come up for a vote. do you think democrats should stand in the way? >> i think hakeem jeffries, i do trust him to be. you know, he is our leader and we will use whatever power we have. they will need democratic votes to pass this budget. and fundamentally, we're not going to vote for something that undermines the american people. >> i do want to ask you, there's an interesting moment in president trump's super bowl interview when he was asked a direct question about when americans would feel prices coming down, inflation, he ran on inflation. he largely won because of inflation. and i want you to hear the question and the answer here. listen. >> if all goes to plan, when do you think families will be able to feel prices going down, groceries, energy? or are you kind of saying to them, hang on,

inflation may get worse until it gets better? >> no, i think we're going to become a rich nation. look, we're not that rich right now. we owe $36 trillion. that's because we let all these nations take advantage of. >> us. >> i'm not sure i heard an answer about inflation there and prices. did you? >> nope. there was no answer. and i think elon musk, which again, nobody, nobody voted for elon musk. he bought the election. but fundamentally he had put out on twitter that, you know, people are going to have to suffer in order for us to make america great again. meaning they have no intention of lowering prices, at least not in the short term. nothing they have done has addressed prices for consumers or the economy. it's all about retribution. renaming the gulf of mexico does nothing to bring down the price of eggs or milk or rent or childcare. so, you know, again,

these people say one thing while they're doing another. and i don't think that they're serious about that. look at project 2025. that is their playbook. that's what they're following. and people should pay attention to what's happening in those ways as opposed to the distractions and the shiny things where, you know, their donald trump is trying to take attention away from the fact that they're destroying our government. >> shiny things like coins. this morning, congresswoman val hoyle, nice to see you. thank you very much for being with us, sarah. >> all right. ahead. today, the u.s. secretary of defense makes his first official trip overseas. what is expected to happen when he meets with foreign leaders? plus, trump's shut down targeting the nation's top consumer watchdog. one former official says this leaves $18 trillion in consumer debt largely unchecked. plus, super bowl 2025 had it all big plays, a halftime show that had social media buzzing and president trump versus taylor swift. those stories ahead.

the pentagon with much more on this first big trip. what are you hearing about it? >> yeah, kate, this is going to be the u. s. s first real test on the world stage, and particularly hegseth when it comes to engaging with nato allies in this new trump administration. right? i mean, the question is going to be what kind of pressure does hegseth place on european allies, on nato allies to take on a greater burden in terms of defense spending, in terms of supporting ukraine in its war against russia? so these are going to be top of mind for the secretary as he travels to germany, belgium and poland. this week. he is also going to be meeting with u.s. troops. but this is really going to be an opportunity for these nato allies, these european allies, to get a sense for how hegseth operates behind closed doors and, of course, how seriously the trump administration is going to be pushing for them to increase their defense spending to 5% of their budget, which is something that has been a top priority for

the new administration, as well as increasing, as i said, that burden sharing when it comes to providing more security assistance to the ukrainians. this is something that the u.s. has wanted to pull back from. and in an example of that, the ukraine defense contact group is going to be meeting at nato headquarters in brussels on wednesday. and for the first time, the united states is not going to be chairing that forum. it's going to be chaired by the united kingdom. so really a stark example here of how the u.s. is kind of wanting to pull back from these responsibilities that the biden administration saw as a really key part of its foreign policy. of course, when it came to europe and ukraine. and so it's going to be interesting to see how hegseth interacts during that forum, during the defense ministerial as well. on thursday at nato headquarters. and what kind of pressure he is placing on these nato allies to take on more of that burden. and so, while this is secretary hegseth first time really on the world stage, he is not going to be alone necessarily. we also expect to see secretary of state marco

rubio making his first appearance in europe at the munich security conference as well, later this week. kate. >> all right. big week ahead. thanks so much, natasha. john. >> all right. this morning, the trump administration shutting down the country's top consumer watchdog, the consumer financial protection bureau, basically just closing it. every worker there was ordered to stay home. cnn's vanessa yurkevich is with us now with the latest. what's going on? >> so these employees, they get an email saying that they are not going to be showing up to the office, and they're also being instructed not to do any more work as it relates to the consumer finance protection bureau, which, of course, as we know, is exactly what it sounds like to protect everyday americans from financial fraud, combating some subprime mortgage crises and helping to end junk fees for everyday americans. this is an effort led by elon musk and doge at the direction of the trump administration. there was a tweet that elon musk sent out on friday that was sort of foreshadowing what was to come. it was essentially, you can see it right there. it was a

cfr. cfb, cfb rip. sorry, a lot of acronyms there, but essentially foreshadowing that this was the next agency that the that doge and the administration was going to be looking at. also, we should note that the website, the homepage is down. they've taken their x handle off and they're essentially stopping any more incoming funding into the organization. you can see just what people essentially get there from the cfr. i got to get this acronym right. the cfpb. cfpb, and essentially it is to protect americans, 200 million americans protected about $636 billion. that is funneled into providing veterans with financial relief because they have been defrauded. and about $6.1 billion in estimated savings and overdraft fees for everyday americans. isn't there something there? >> the financial crisis. this is one of the things that they

came, you know, which was pretty bad for america, right? >> but then people tried to get rid of it. republicans tried several times through congress to get rid of this. it didn't work there. but could it work here? you never know. there's a lot of employees that have filed lawsuits about this. this can move pretty quickly. we know that judges have stepped in and put pauses on things like with usaid. could that happen here? we'll see. >> all right, vanessa, thank you very much, sir. >> all right. ahead, the ntsb working towards its preliminary report on the rare midair crash in dc this morning. we're hearing from the father of one of the pilots of that american airlines plane, now forced to mourn his son as one of the 67 people who were killed and live poultry markets have been temporarily shut down in new york city following several cases of bird flu. why? officials still believe, though, at this point there's no immediate public health threat the boeing. >> boeing 747 has crashed in the lockerbie area., trying to. >> find out the why of it.

is this week. how are you going to remember your son? what should people know about your son, sam well, i'll. >> tell you. >> when that aircraft hit. >> the potomac, that. a huge hole was left not just in our family, but in the community. this hole is never going to be filled. uh, we all love sam. and he was a happy person. just constantly happy. he was a professional. he did a great job, uh, in his flying career, he was set to be married in october. my wife was looking at wedding venues just that very day that this happened. trying to lock that in. we were really excited about seeing where that family was going to go. i was really hoping to see some grandkids in the next few years that some more grandkids. so, uh, and we're really going to miss sam. but i want to say that, uh, there's 66 other stories i haven't, i haven't seen one one other victim that i

wouldn't want to be friends with. and that includes the blackhawk crew. um, i just want everybody to know that that, you know, i have 20 years experience flying blackhawks and, uh. and i think that that crew is an honorable, good, uh, crew that just, um, you know, had some bad mistakes that that night. and, uh, i would say that everybody who's been in aviation long enough has made some mistakes. and just by the grace of god, we have not, uh, we have not ended in this way. so, like, they hit the opposite of the lottery. the chances of this happening were, you know, just out of this world. but, uh, you know, i know that when when sam's earthly life ended, when he hit the potomac. but his life was. jesus started right that minute. so that gives us some, uh, some comfort. and and the whole country seems to be mourning with us and that, you know, has been, uh, you know, made it just

a little easier to to take. but i have been in contact with the u.s. army combat readiness center and the department of evaluation and. standardization. they're, uh, you know, for sam's legacy. we're we're going to try to make some positive change to aviation safety. and, uh, the ntsb, they've got a lot of work to do. it's going to be we're we're looking for a preliminary report you know, within a month, but also, um, it's going to be about a year before we know all the details and what the recommendations are going to be. so, um, i've called on the army to make some changes right away, and i've got some positive feedback from them. so far, and i'd like to see some things change that, you know, let's not wait a year to get going on this. let's get this the ball rolling right now. so for instance, uh, there's a military frequency and a civilian frequency. at at every large airport. i'm asking the army to

stop using the military frequency and just talk on the civilian frequency. um, that way the jet can hear the helicopter. the helicopter can hear the jet. i'm asking the army to put four crew members on every blackhawk when it goes out for nvg training. i'm asking the army to revamp all the training that that's appropriate for this incident. like, um, distance estimation and depth perception and night visual illusions, amongst other things. and i've got a positive response on that, and i'm asking them to do a safety stand down and just make sure everybody gets retrained on that. um, yeah. >> you as you said, tim, it can't come fast enough for, for all of the families, but also for anyone who who flies, which is, you know, so, so many people where they are in the military or they are civilians. i'm curious what kind of communication that you have received, if any, about the investigation. are you hearing

from investigators beyond your conversations with the military yeah, i exchange an email with the ntsb every single day, sometimes 2 or 3 times a day. >> i'm really looking forward to getting the, uh, to hear the voice recordings that were in the black caucus, that that crew lost situational awareness. and, and i think that all the clues to what happened and why they lost situational awareness are are on that voice recording. so as soon as that's available, um, i may have a lot more recommendations to what things we, uh, we can do right away to change. another thing that i would like to see the faa do right away, or as soon as possible, is to, um, make sure everybody that's operating this sort of airspace like this is the most controlled airspace in all of the united states. is that washington, dc? yet? this happened here. but i'm going to ask the faa to please, uh, require everybody to have a tcas system, even the military. and

on an operational when they're using it, the only, um, time that i think that they should be able to turn it off is when it's absolutely operationally necessary for, um, for secrecy. if there's a real live mission going on. >> yeah, those are all really good points and things that have been discussed. certainly. but you're going straight to the faa and straight to the military to ask for this. i am curious if there is anything that you would like us to know about your son. i know he was about to get married, and you were looking forward to a joyous time, and now you are in the worst kind of mourning, a parent having to to bury a son. what is it that you want people to know about him? because now we know that that he was a pilot who was who was on the verge of starting sort of a new life. >> well, i you know, what? what can you say when you lose a child? you know, no parent should have to go through that.

and and no community should have to grieve him. but i literally don't know a single person that didn't like sam and didn't enjoy being around him. so, you know, it's a terrible loss. it's just a terrible loss. >> i know that you were demanding changes, and you have spelled out some of those changes. have you heard from the president? have you talked to the president about the changes that you have been asking for? >> i haven't been able to talk to the president yet that i believe that we will have that conversation sometime soon. >> all right. tim lilly, i know you were preparing. >> i have talked to go ahead. go ahead. i have i have talked with four members of congress who were every one of them was sympathetic and supportive of what i had to say. >> all right. so it sounds like that potential progress could happen partly because of your experience as a black hawk helicopter pilot. and what has happened to your family in light of this tragedy? tim lilly, thank you so much for taking the

past week. separately, 15 birds have died at two new york city zoos after possible exposure to the virus. let's get the very latest on this. joining us right now is the new york state health commissioner, doctor james mcdonald. commissioner, thank you so much for your time. let's start first with these live bird markets. what is the fear and risk posed in finding bird flu at these markets? >> yeah. so good morning. so keep in mind that the virus we're talking about h5n1 the strain we're talking about that we saw in the live bird markets is the avian strain. it's a little bit different than the ones that occurred in cows. so the risk for human beings is very, very low. and keep in mind, you know, as much as we talk about h5n1 and we're very vigilant about this in new york, we've only seen 67 human cases in the united states. and generally almost all of those cases, we were able to connect it to an exposure, whether it was to a dairy worker or generally to someone who worked with poultry. so right now we're

being very vigilant about this. what we did in new york was prudent. we really got ahead of this because we found these cases doing surveillance. so this is really, i think, just a good example of how prevention works. >> a testament to why surveillance is important, because you get to it before it becomes a huge problem. how? what is the next step in in staying vigilant? i saw that you say that you're prepared to the state is prepared for widespread testing, should that be necessary? it made me wonder what the benchmark would be to indicate that it's needed. >> yeah. so i think this just speaks to preparedness, right? like in other words, we all went through the pandemic and we were like, well, what is this? right. but we think about h5n1. it's an influenza a virus right now, though, the risk to humans is low. but when you think about testing, i have wadsworth, one of the most amazing state health labs in the country. so if we had to build up testing, we could do that. there's a whole

network of labs that can do that. but right now, we're so far away from human cases. this is preparedness. this is this is something we need to have. don't get me wrong. we're ready for this. and this came out of all kinds of work we did way even before the pandemic. lessons learned during the pandemic. so we have the supplies, we're ready if we need it, but we're very far away from that because we even have even had one human case of h5n1 in new york. i'm not asking for one, but we're looking for them, and that's part of why we're just continuing to be vigilant in new york. and that's why we do what we do to train local health departments, work with our other state agencies, ag and markets, department of environmental conservation. we're really just trying to be vigilant to be all over this issue, just to eliminate the threat for new yorkers. >> it's important that obviously, public health officials like yourself remain vigilant. but for the general public here, the cdc, you are saying the cdc has made very clear that the risk of human infection remains very low. but how do people, just the general public, what should the general

public know? how can they remain vigilant and be helpful in trying to avoid hopefully ever seeing a human case of bird flu in the state? >> you know, so when you think about any infection, like you have to be exposed. so right now we think about who's most likely to be exposed. it's someone who's touching a dead animal or working with livestock or poultry. so one, nobody should be touching dead animals unless you're trained to do that. and if you work with livestock or poultry, you should wear personal protective equipment. if you remember the general public, this shouldn't be something you're doing. having said that, you know, hey, i'm the state health commissioner. i'm always going to tell you you should be getting your seasonal flu vaccine. it won't protect you against h5n1, but no one wants to get the regular flu. and by the way, that's a concern too. and that's really what i want people to focus on a little bit. is h5n1. we're being vigilant and prudent. but my friends, i worry about you and the regular flu. i got people in the hospital, quite a few of them. i really want those who haven't had the flu vaccine to get protected, not to protect

against h5n1, but the flu, which is something we have to keep in mind. we still see it this time of the year. >> absolutely. never a bad opportunity, always a good opportunity to remind to get your seasonal your seasonal vaccines. thank you so much, doctor. thank you for your time, sarah. >> kate, i'm not sure you know this, but the philadelphia eagles, they won the super bowl. what did you. do? >> did you. >> i watched. >> it in case you were living under a rock. we're going to show you some highlights. and we're going to show you a little bit about what happened during the halftime show with lots of messages, political and some shade, of course, thrown at drake. >> is the. >> great american. game. >> you can speak with a vision and tongue predicate. this time is. >> all there is with anderson cooper. listen, wherever you get your podcasts. >> psoriatic arthritis. symptoms can be. >> unpredictable. >> one day., your. joints hurt. >> next sits on your skin.

>> i got cosentyx feels good to move. >> feel less. >> joint pain. >> swelling and tenderness, back. >> pain and clearer. >> skin and help stop further. >> joint damage with cosentyx. don't use if you're allergic to cosentyx. >> before starting, get checked for tuberculosis. an increased risk of infections and lowered ability to fight them may occur like tuberculosis or other serious bacterial, fungal, or viral infections. some are fatal. tell your doctor if you have an infection or symptoms like fevers, sweats, chills, muscle aches or cough. had a vaccine or plan to or if inflammatory bowel disease symptoms develop or worsen serious allergic reactions and severe eczema like skin reactions may occur. >> just bust. >> a move. >> ask your rheumatologist. >> about cosentyx. >> at humana. >> we believe. >> your health. >> care should evolve with you, and part of that evolution means choosing the right medicare plan for you. humana can help. >> hi. >> my name. >> is sam. >> davis and i'm going to tell you about medicare advantage prescription drug plans that can provide more coverage than original medicare, including prescription drug coverage, all. wrapped up into one convenient

plan. with original medicare, you're covered for hospital stays and doctor office visits, but you have to meet a deductible for each, and then you're still responsible for 20% of the cost. next, let's look at medicare supplement plans. if a service is covered under original medicare, then a medicare supplement plan pays for some or all of your medicare deductibles and the 20% coinsurance. but they may. >> have. >> higher monthly premiums and no prescription drug coverage humana medicare advantage prescription drug plans include medical coverage, plus prescription drug coverage with $0 copays on hundreds of prescriptions. most plans include $0 copays for covered preventive dental services, vision coverage that includes vision exams and a yearly allowance toward eyewear, even hearing benefits that include routine hearing exams and coverage toward hearing aids. you can get $0 copays for

morning television world. i actually watched football like i watched the football game number one and the ad second and the halftime show almost never. because i also, unlike apparently everyone else in america, i have to go to the bathroom every once in a while. that said that said that said, i've read a lot about the halftime show, and i know, as can be said, every year after the halftime show, boy, people are talking about that. >> yeah. and they and they should look, look at my shirt. okay. this was got on okay on crenshaw boulevard in los angeles representing for kendrick because that was one of the best halftime shows i've ever seen. and it really highlights the two americas. right. there were so many subversive things. first, the a minor necklace, the pendant that was brilliant. uh, sam jackson as an uncle sam. uncle tom, if you remember his django character, and then telling them not to be so ghetto. but then kendrick saying, i'm going to do it anyway, and then the be humble song where they're doing

the american flag in unison. there were so many elements that kendrick gave to, honestly, black excellence like that really felt like a black history month performance. and i think if you go back and dissect it and watch it a couple of times, you will see elements that you missed. i thought it was brilliant. it was lyrically awesome. and again, we were in the living room i was in. we were screaming you were screaming, i was screaming, i have to say, there were so many messages, like you said, that if you, you need to go back and watch it, if you are interested in what he's trying to say, because there is a message not just to drake, but there is a message about america. >> so it was it was actually quite political, but people didn't notice because he's so brilliant with his wordsmith, segun odu olowu and brian steinberg. oh my god, thank you both, i did. >> it, you got it. >> gold. i'm the winner right now. >> i'm serena right. >> now. >> oh my god. >> thank you so much.
