we've spoken to the headmistress at the school where brianna ghey used to study. one of whom had accessed the dark web, and both of them had messaged each other on whatsapp. what can be done to stop those kinds of actions and children interacting with social media in that way? these stories break my heart as a parent, and certainly we need to ensure that services are taking all the steps that they can to protect young people when it comes to issues like cyber bullying. certainly in australia, we've got strong takedown powers for the esafety commissioner and strong incentives for companies here to work on those issues. i'm not familiar with that example because i'm here in australia, but you spoke of messaging services. it's important to know that the australian proposal here doesn't actually encompass messaging services. it's quite a complex question. i want my kids to be able to message me to be picked up from the bus stop. we can't cut kids off from messaging, but certainly that can be an area where there can be cyberbullying. so there's a challenging question w

so, oren, how close to a deal are the two sides here >> brianna, we are potentially closer than we'ver been to seeing an agreement between israel and lebanon that would end the fighting. and yet we're not there yet. and it may not be able to get across the finish line here because of the details here. lebanese officials have said much of what's in the draft agreement they agreed to, but they're trying to clarify some unclear points. and according to those officials, it would be a temporary 60 day ceasefire with the idea of getting to a much that agreement would get back to un security council resolution 1701. the reason that's important is because that's the resolution that ended the 2006 war, and a key part of that is that in southern lebanon, the only military forces allowed would be the lebanese military itself. as well as un forces. that's something israel wants to see. so if the broad outline is there, why aren't we across the finish line yet? well, lebanon itself is trying to clarify some unclear points and that's why amos hochstein is there right now trying to see if it's possi

brianna. that's what we were told there was no bomb thrower. there wasn't anyone. he believed could be an effective communicator, which is why this plan was hatched essentially on the flight from west palm beach to washington, d.c., and by the time he landed back in west palm beach, he had announced that matt gaetz was his pick to be attorney general. so anyone on that short list, which matt gaetz was not originally on, it was not somebody that he felt like was right for the role. now, when it comes to matt gaetz, when it comes to today's announcement, we are told that he informed donald trump that transition members were told ahead of him tweeting, so it was not a surprise. donald trump himself has put out a statement that i want to read, he wrote. i greatly appreciate the recent efforts of matt gaetz in seeking approval to be attorney general. he was doing very well, but at the same time did not want to be a distraction for the administration, for which he has much respect. matt has a wonderful future and i look forward to watching all of the great things that he

>> yeah, brianna.of the reason that he ended up choosing matt gaetz was because he was unimpressed by all of the people who had been paraded through his office. he had sat down for a number of these interviews. he was told allies that he believed these people were too stiff, that he wanted somebody who could be a quote unquote, effective communicator. he wanted somebody who could go on television and throw bombs. and that's at least in part, the whole entire process of matt gaetz vetting essentially happened on the plane from west palm beach to washington and by the time he landed back in west with president biden, he had announced that he was nominating matt gaetz. now, here's what we're told about how today unfolded. one, donald trump and jd vance were both told by matt gaetz directly that he was going to be withdrawing his name. the transition team was also made aware that this was happening, so that they were alert and starting to think about potential names for a new list of potential attorneys, a

brianna kayla tausche live for us in rio. thank you. and we have cnn's senior international correspondent, fred pleitgen joining us now live from moscow. fred how is this all being perceived in russia brianna, the russians and the kremlin specifically saying that the biden administration as they put it, is pouring oil onto the fire. >> and it's been quite interesting to see because there have been some angry reactions coming from russian members of parliament. but then also russian state media, in fact a couple of minutes ago, they opened up their main show saying the biden administration has decided to extend this conflict that donald trump said that he wanted to stop. so that's sort of one of the things, one of the narratives that's being pushed here in russia is that all of this will extend the conflict and escalate the conflict. the war in ukraine. obviously, we heard the white house's perspective on on on all of that. but the second thing is that the russians believe that this could actually lead to an escalation between russia and

>> well, boris and brianna, i just got off the phone with one adviser to donald trump. he's not with the campaign, but someone who has spoken to him on a number of occasions and has said that donald trump is really taking this responsible of filling in an administration and cabinet much more seriously than he ever did before. he has privately acknowledged that thinks he made mistakes when it came to his first term and he wants to fill those positions with people who are competent and very loyal. we know that loyalty is probably the number one issue to donald trump. just to talk about a few of the positions he's currently looking at, one will be chief of staff. this is a critical position in the white house. it's going to be his right hand and somebody that he needs to be able to rely on under any circumstances. and we are told that the front- runner in that position, currently at this very moment, is susie wiles, who's ran his campaign, who was by his side, after he left washington in disgrace in 2021, after most republicans were trying to distance themselves from the f

brianna. >> yeah. lauren can you explain a little something to us? because you have the chairman saying that he has reservations about releasing the report because it isn't done yet. it's still in the final review stages. he has reservations about releasing any unfinished work product. i mean, i thought the understanding was that this was largely complete even in the early summer, and had kind of been put on ice while gaetz was going through his primary and his general election. that this was actually pretty baked. what is your understanding about that? >> well, i think that that's why what guests said is so you know, informative, brianna, because it's really a question right now of what is not quite complete. >> does that mean you know, not everyone has reviewed it? that's supposed to. what step were they exactly on? and i think that that is a key question and really something that lawmakers are going to want to know the answer to. as they deliberate, because that might change people's view on whether or not this has some past precedent for release

. >> that's right, boris and brianna. look, this certainly looks like the opening salvo of the next trump trade war. and i think the big question here is whether or not it's going to undermine another war. the war on inflation. and it's just too early to say. right. because there's so many unknowns. i mean, will trump actually go forward and impose these tariffs or will he reach some sort of agreement that allows him to back down if he does impose the tariffs, how long do they stay in place and how do businesses react? we know in the past they have passed along costs to consumers. but it's unclear whether or not they're definitely going to do the same thing. now. i think at a minimum, it's safe to say that these threatened tariffs they have the potential to cause chaos for businesses to invite retaliation from our trading partners, and yes, to raise costs for consumers. and remember what trump is threatening to do here is much bigger in scale than what he did during the first term. these are massive tariffs across the boa

brianna. >> all right. steve contorno in west palm beach. thank you and once these tariffs are enacted companies that import foreign products have a few choices. one, they can eat the cost of the tariff and keep the price of their product. the same or two they can share the cost of the tariff and only slightly raise the price of their products. or three they can just pass along the total cost of the tariff. tariff to the american consumer and raise the price of a product from mexico, for instance, which would have a 25% tariff by 25%. >> there is a fourth option, though, and this is the one that president-elect trump hopes will happen in an effort to avoid tariffs, companies could become less reliant on foreign goods, and in turn create more manufacturing jobs. here in the united states. let's weigh those options with white house economics reporter at the washington post jeff stein. jeff, thank you so much for being with us. on that note about companies being less reliant on foreign goods and bringing manufacturing to the united states, woul

brianna? >> really interesting stuff. thank you for the reporting. let's talk about this now with analyst gloria borger and ron brownstein. too premature to talk about recess appointments. despite it was a day ago when he was running for republican leader in the senate. it's not too premature. what do you make of this? >> there's not a lot of history of the republicans in congress standing up to donald trump. trump, i think, has pushed to the boundary, to the outer limitlimit what might be acceptable, i think very deliberately. it is a consistent strategy of kind of strong- man rulers to force their allies to defend the indefensible and to keep moving that boundary a little further to see how much further they would go. and if virtually all republican senators are willing to say matt gaetz should be attorney general with all the charges against him. if they're willing to say tulsi gabbard with no experience or ties to russia should be in charge of national intelligence, that tells trump, i can take it further next time. i can deport u.s. kids. this i

but brianna, like like mark said, it really is about a power grab. and i think that's what scares a lot of people. people people are responsible. conservatives want to conserve things. but don't this hysteria, it really is about a power grab, isn't it? yeah. you know, for argument's sake, let's play into this climate change hysteria for just a moment. let's pretend that john kerry, al gore, the, you know, dozens of climate scientists who have told us since 1970, you had ten years to live because of climate change, let's pretend they're getting it right now rather than saddle the american taxpayer with taxes to pay for things like electricity in africa, is what john kerry mentioned. why don't we look at the facts? china is responsible for a third of the world's global emissions in 2023. their co2 emissions were 15% higher than the world economies combined. so when you hear that, you think, how does paying for electricity in africa and me behaving better help solve climate change? it doesn't. but what it does do is it allows the left to push this globa

these major developing stories and many more, all coming in right here to cnn news central >> i'm brianna keilar alongside boris sanchez here in washington. and we begin this hour with some new exclusive reporting on how the harris campaign believes that former president trump will repeat a move that he made in the 2020 election. the campaign tells cnn that it, quote, fully expects trump will declare victory next tuesday before the votes are counted. and this comes as the harris campaign is also projecting confidence in its ability to win over undecided voters, with just four days to go, saying that are breaking in their favor. >> meantime the trump campaign is attempting to clarify violent comments. the former president recently made about former republican congresswoman and harris supporter liz cheney. listen to this she's a radical war hawk let's put her with a rifle standing there with nine barrel shooting at her. >> okay let's see how she feels about it. you know, when the guns are trained on her face, you know they're all war hawks when they're sitting in washington in a nice buildi

which is important, i think brianna is right.e but it was the policies and he did not talk down to women or si young people. he said i wai want to be your protector whether you like it or not and i will keep you safe. more money in your pocket codepo to enforce the border, safer and eventually you will like it even if they don't like me. ten seconds, can he grow this voter block further, aldo? >> absolutely the policies of donald trump protect men and all races. he will be the president for all americans and he made that clear last administration and he wil lag do it again and i am so excited to see it. >> laura: it is so great to haveishave you both on both fute bright lights in the country,fo brianna, aldo. that is it for us and it is america >> carley: president elect donald trump names suzie wiles his chief of staff, first woman ever to hold this position. >> todd: and officially flipping pennsylvania, and getting closer to keeping house majority. >> carley: despite mandate for trump and democrats, preparing to obstruct. >> contrary to our values, we will fight to the death. >> carle

brianna? >>> the world is also watching president-elect trump's national security team take shape to see what it means for the war in ukraine, for the middle east, and for u.s. relations with china. cnn chief national security correspondent alex marquardt is here with us now. alex, let's start with ukraine and the middle east. what do his picks tell you? >> i think if you are ukrainian or palestinian and you're looking at mike waltz and marco rubio in those roles, you're getting pretty nervous right now. both of those men are seen as ally pro-israel and wanting to end the war if ukraine sooner in a way that would suggest potentially significant compromise by ukraine. that's not to say that they don't favor a strong and independent ukraine, they just disagree with the biden administration's level of support, saying that we'll be with you as long as it takes. mike waltz wrote recently, that is a recipe for disaster. it's not just about ukrainian compromise, either. it's about pressuring russia i

if the world so far as the count on man dressy show brianna, we show the way of how can it be done any successful? and we kind of help multi lot the creative recommendations for many countries. then we all would say a success story. we have to open our eyes the even the most wonderful people are annoying to letting these transfusions if we don't have the right sign. or if we don't do them a fast, you know, we are giving a lot of populations that will be on site is 5 to the far right on to the 4th. nice to actually reverse all the time of 40. see, we cannot allow 40 degree dot climate policy would be seeing us, our gains, the people, it should be on economic opportunity. but for that we need the homework to wake up and create the conditions. and right now, this is the game he's doing whatever you can. who do i do have and then see what happens. and then for clear on me. yeah, that is on the task. yeah. you were talking about the people, including in your country columbia, and your government has worked to, to reduce the subsidies for fossil fuel projects. but then last in august, somebo

ukraine in russia say 6 of the ballistic missiles target said a military facility in russia's west and brianna's, collegian overnights, west coast. s 5 were shut down by a defensive ukraine. so we just received permission from the united states to file the longer range missiles out. russia, moscow describe the attack as an escalation mocking a new face in the wall. i corresponded in the mission just while gave me the latest from case a buffer from the creating village street that has been no official confirmation of the use of the attack. and they did say that they hit and munitions f o indians co overnight. they didn't describe the kind of ammunition they used, and we don't expect them to admit through that anytime soon. the pre was fat ones or anything to go by. but what is more interesting is that both us and you creating media sources are reporting that us and your pin and officials have to order them that attack them so well used. and it's also the coded messaging of the press conference here in key. when zalinski was aust well attacked him, see was he wasn't but the reason his response to

boris and brianna?agan, thank you so much for the reporting. >> thanks, guys. >>> still to come, you may have seen this, former president trump expressed support for a plan by robert f. kennedy jr. that would order the removal of fluoride from the country's drinking water during a potential second trump term. we'll take a closer look at the science, next. >>> former president trump is expressing tentative support for robert f. kennedy jr. 's new plan to order the removal of fluoride from public water supplies in a potential second trump term. trump told nbc news that he has not talked to rfk jr. about the proposal yet, but, quote, it sounds okay to me. >> the practice of adding fluoride to drinking water is under scrutiny right now after a judge ruled the epa must regulate it more because high levels could pose a risk to the intellectual development of children. cnn's meg terrell joins us now live. meg, the cdc and the americanamerican association continue to back the benefits of fluoride, right? >> yea

>> two big questions come up out of it, brianna. the first is why the administration did not do this earlier. president joe biden was concerned about american casualties. there had been, essentially, none in the ukraine war that is the reason he told all american troops, including some pentagon units and cyber units and others to get out of ukraine before the invasion in february 2022, and that included the contractors. as natasha indicated, that made a very big difference to the ukrainians because it meant they could not do repairs on site. so, there is some risk and there are risks you could have american casualties. what it really opens up though, brianna, is the question of the one other big hanging decision in front of president biden before he leaves, which is whether to allow the use of american long-range weapons to be fired into russian territory, not just over the border, but deeper into the territory. something has been asked by president volodymyr zelenskyy on repeated occasions. every time we ask u.s. officials about th
