boris. and i want to show you one other piece of video. this is what those 74 mile an hour wind gusts can do. this is hurricane force gusts that took this private jet and slammed it into another airplane. and one of the airstrips close to the dallas fort worth region. it's part of a larger storm system that is racing across the country with a triple threat. you mentioned it. blizzards, high winds, the potential for severe storms still ongoing, and other threats associated with this system as well. so let's talk about the bigger picture here because as it stands, we have already clocked over 225 severe weather reports, all indicated with these little dots or icons labeled across the eastern third of the country. eastern two thirds, really, eight of which were tornadoes. confirmed tornadoes from oklahoma to texas, but majority of them were wind events. and we're still ongoing across the eastern seaboard because the line of thunderstorms responsible for that high wind is marching through the carolinas and the mid-atlantic as we speak. but som

boris. >> as president trump prepares for his speech tonight, mexico says it will soon announce retaliatory measures. while china and canada have already vowed tariffs of their own. here's canada's prime minister justin trudeau. >> i want to speak first directly to the american people. we don't want this. we want to work with. you as a friend and ally, and we don't want to see. you hurt, either. but your government has chosen to do this to you. >> cnn's vanessa yurkevich joins us now live to break this down. vanessa, to kevin liptak point, these tariffs are inflationary and americans are already dealing with high prices. how soon can they see these new tariffs have a reflection on their day to day spending. >> yeah. well if you look at the stock market, anyone who holds money in the stock market you're feeling the effects right now. i mean the dow tumbling north of 800 points today as some of these retaliatory tariffs were announced. but for the everyday consumer you're going to feel it in t

boris or pardon me, omar, you're here. you're in for boris. you know, i'm just going to use your names interchangeably. omar. thank you. boris. >> that is high praise, i should say. now to some of the other headlines we're watching this hour. the man accused of killing four university of idaho students is asking a judge to withdraw the death penalty as a possible punishment because he has autism, according to a court filing by his attorneys. they say because of that, a death sentence would violate his eighth amendment protections against cruel and unusual punishment. his trial is set to begin later this year. in august. also, catholics are gathering at the vatican to mark the start of lent without pope francis. the 88 year old was forced to miss ash wednesday services because he is still in the hospital, battling pneumonia. however, the pope did deliver an ash wednesday prayer, part of which said, quote, the condition of fragility reminds us of the tragedy of death. his prayer was delivered by a cardinal to hundreds of catholics gathered in ro

boris. >> there certainly is. >> and this is the president's first primetime address since he has been back in power. and really, we are told that he is going to use tonight's address to explain what his. the first of 43 days of his administration have been like, largely focusing on trying to focus on some of the department of governmental efficiency things. of course, elon musk's big approach to shrink the federal government. i'm told that elon musk will be on hand in the house chamber. so that, of course, will be one thing that republicans may enjoy and like. but the challenges really are mounting. even in the last 12 hours or so that make this speech even perhaps more complicated than even yesterday, largely because of this trade war. there is no doubt that high prices have been one of the challenges of this administration. presidents don't set prices, but they take the blame for the cost of prices. and this is something that certainly is now going to be fresh in the minds of so many voters. the new prices of automobiles, of vegetables, and so many other things. so the president, of

boris, as you said, the kremlin is. essentially gleeful with this realignment in washington, even as some skeptics on capitol hill are wondering where the president is going to go from this. we're told that there are national security meetings all day long here with secretary of state marco rubio and other advisors. a key question is what does president trump plan to say in his address tomorrow evening to that joint session of congress about ukraine? clearly, he wanted to announce a deal with the rare earth minerals. that will not happen now, but the posture towards zelenskyy certainly has not ratcheted down since that explosive meeting on friday. >> boris jeff zeleny live for us at the white house. thank you so much, brianna. >> as the trump administration. >> reconsiders its support of ukraine. cnn has learned the u.s. has suspended operations and planning for offensive cyber operations against russia. a senior official telling cnn the suspension is a major blow since planning for such operations takes time and resear

i also just want to point out, coming later this week, boris, is the jobs report.t is a key indicator for the u.s. economy. this will be the first complete jobs report under this trump administration. investors will be looking very closely at that report. what it says about the u.s. economy. no doubt, president trump and his administration will be watching very closely. but markets no doubt have been on a wild ride these past 2 to 3 days. and i think one could potentially predict that that is going to continue to happen as they respond very quickly to news. and the news has been very quick changing at every moment. and the markets have responded accordingly. and there they are up right now on this news. >> boris vanessa yurkevich, thank you so much for that update, brianna. >> happening now on capitol hill. elon musk just finished up a lunch meeting with republican senators. then this evening he'll be meeting with the house republican conference, which is all a response to growing complaints. a lot of them that lawmakers are getting about how he has gone about layi

well, we're. >> in the carolina forest, boris. and this is the terrain here that's giving firefighters here a very difficult and very challenging time here. rough terrain, especially as they get in their heavy equipment. they're dealing with these smoldering hotspots. you mentioned 1600 acres burned. right now it's these fires that seemingly just sort of pop up out of nowhere that's giving them the most challenging time. the good news, though, is that they're making some progress. 30% containment, but they believe it's much more than that. we'll have numbers released later today. the other thing is, just in the last hour, we saw black hawks up in the sky. single engine aircrafts continuing with those water drops. that of course, is going to give firefighters on the ground more of a chance to get this controlled and contained. but we did talk to some residents. this is an area this subdivision back here. they're doing a lot of work here. residents here were evacuated. they were allowed to come back. but some of them, as i'm about t

and, boris, let me lay this out for your viewers as to why should we be helping ukraine? if you look around the world, our biggest economic enemy is china, our biggest geopolitical enemy is russia. and in a matter of three years, without losing a single u.s. soldier, we have decimated their military and their economy. it's been the greatest return on investment for any military expenditure ever. and as far as the return on investment for soldiers lives, it's infinity because you can't divide by zero. so just economically, this makes sense. and the money that's being spent, yes, it's a lot of money, but it's being spent inside the united states to create jobs here. i talked to ukrainian soldiers when i was over there and stay in touch with them during this conflict. and one of them once told me, you know, what gets us through this is that we know in america you don't leave your friends in the fields. and to walk away from that, people will. it will take 100 years to unsee what happened in the oval office last week. as far as friends that we're going to need in the world fo

boris, what did your voters say?a and abby, we're live at the original golden eagle diner in bristol, pennsylvania. this is all important. bucks county, a county that donald trump flipped from, from blue to red by about 300 votes, the first time a republican has done that since 1988. it's the biggest swing district in the commonwealth of pennsylvania, one that helped deliver donald trump a second term in the white house. we're here with a focus group. eight of my closest friends. now, we've got four democrats, four republicans, and they had a variety of opinions about president trump's joint address to congress tonight. and i want to start with gerald over at the end here. what did you make of the speech? what did you think? >> so i have to start. >> by saying, you know. >> i have to question everything he says. can i trust what he says? you know, he's the evidence shows that he just isn't trustworthy. and he promised all these things today. but actions speak louder than words. i don't see any success here at all. i

let's go now to boris sanchez. he watched the president's speech with a group of voters in bucks county, pennsylvania. obviously crucial swing area that donald trump narrowly won in the election. so, boris, you were there watching it, able to see the conversations, the interactions, and then talk to everyone afterwards. how is this mixed group of trump and harris voters responding? what did they hear? >> yeah. >> uh, a variety of opinions tonight, erin, as you might imagine, i've been discussing with eight of my friends here in bucks county. you mentioned it. bucks county is a swing district, the biggest swing district in pennsylvania. donald trump won it by about 300 votes. it was a huge part of him winning the commonwealth of pennsylvania. on his return to the white house, i wanted to first start with carolyn here, who is a military veteran, someone who served as was a law enforcement veteran. you were perhaps the most enthusiastic in the entire group for trump's speech. on a day where he installs 25% tariffs on

we saw how that played very, very well for boris johnson the times that he went donald trump understandsl very well some type of reaganesque moment if that's possible in kyiv would be a real strong signal from trump into putin. shannon: i think it would take a lot to get there. i am not sure they are even communicating at this point. but to president trump's point he is having conversation with putin. that was not happened during the biden administration how do you resolve it if you're not at the table with the key players? >> i agreed the sitting president we do need to be talking to everybody at the table with that being said the ideal of donald trump going to kyiv is highly unlikely. i do not played on susan's point the idea of this meeting being historic and unprecedented is actually very important in this moment. what we heard from the european union foreign minister talking about we need a new world order. we need a new world leader that moment to meet was very, very slick caused paws but is very telling europe is saying if the u.s. is not going to lead this moment somebody we can

it got picked apart, including by boris yeltsin, first president of an independent russia, because they needed to reform -- it sounds familiar where we are sitting at the moment, of the soviet system and the heads of the republics of russia, belarus, and ukraine got together to basically dismantle the soviet union, attempting to keep together some part before that, as this starts to move through the whole system toward this amazing and dramatic set of events, george h. w. bush goes off to kyiv and starts to make an appeal for the guys to keep the band together and this is very interesting to think back on. this next year's are 250th anniversary of u.s. independence , from the united kingdom. it is quite remarkable or we have come in 250 years when we think about what that anniversaries want to like next year, that we have had a hard time, despite being a revolutionary power that fought towards independence, of going along with others when they have come to that moment as well. that is because in the meantime the united states started to become an imperial power itself after being held b

similarly to boris, he has led from the front on this.not saying i'll support for ukraine or how we put it on the agenda kind of waned at all, but it did feel like it did a little bit over the last couple of years since boris left, in my humble opinion. but starmer has firmly, firmly put the uk front and centre of this, and it's been really diplomatically challenging. if you think how well relatively that visit over to with trump went and then having to handle almost the fallout of that of zelenskyy's meeting the very next day over the weekend here in the uk. he's riding two very challenging horses, a temperamental trump that we can�*t. i know people want to go, oh, trump's this, trump's this and kind of turn trump�*s this and kind of turn our noses up at him and kind of, you know, berate him for how he treated zelenskyy, let's say the other week. but that's not sensible. it's not pragmatic. the uk needs the us. 50 that's one horse that he's riding very well, starmer. but he is also, you know, cementing our place in a absolutely i think m
