tom foreman, cnn washington. >> our thanks to tom foreman for that report. back with us now is former defense secretary and cia director under president obama, leon panetta. secretary, thanks so much for being patient with us and sticking through those issues. obviously, a huge part of trump's effort to rework the federal government to reengineer it, if you will, is led by elon musk at doge. i wonder what you make of his status as a special government employee with a top security clearance and limited ethical transparency obligations. >> well, you know, look, presidents always have had advisers, but. normally those advisers have a position within the government that allows them to exercise whatever power the president gives them. when you have somebody who's outside of the government that doesn't really in any way have any official status within the government, then it's going to raise a lot of questions about whatever he says or does. >> and some of his allies have taken over the office of personnel management data systems, locking out some senior career em

thank you for having me on for more on this medevac jet and company, i want to bring in cnn's tom foreman. >> tom, what are you learning about this company and what they do? >> jet rescue is an air ambulance service, meaning it operates very specialized types of planes here. what they build them as is basically intensive care units that are flying. so it has all sorts of equipment. they have medical experts on board as part of one of these flights. they're licensed and insured in both the united states and mexico. this company, jet rescue, is they've been around for little over 20 years with some kind of operating hubs in both mexico city and miami, or at least they have had those at times more than 20 years experience. as i cited there, they call themselves the premier provider of international critical care ambulance services from mexico, latin america and the caribbean to the usa, canada and worldwide. although it seems like it's truly focused mainly in the north american space, here, and they cite some specialty in handling pediatric patients, obviously from babies on up. that's a lot

also joining me right now is cnn's tom foreman.this was a medevac jet we are told with with four people on board. four of them were believed to be the crew, two passengers. we know. one was a pediatric patient. what else are you hearing about this? this air ambulance company. >> this company, jet rescue, has been around for just over 20 years. it's based in mexico city. it is licensed and insured in both mexico and the united states. and as part of its mission, they they call themselves the premier provider of international critical care ambulance services from mexico, latin america, the caribbean, the usa, canada and worldwide. although they seem to be really focused in latin america and the rest of the north american continent, a little bit of south america. apparently they had before this accident. if their numbers are correct at this point, before this accident, they had nine lear jets that they operated, and they were very clear about saying they own and operate all their own planes. so it wasn't a leasing situation for somewh

my career as a steam fitter has taken me from apprentice to journeyman to foreman to general foreman and project management. working and running jobs in san francisco and the north bay in 2005 i was honored with the invitation to come in and help run the local 38 apprenticeship program. as the assistant training director and curriculum coordinator as my children are getting older i'm allowed more time to get involved with extracurriculars serving the city which i love seems like a good direction. as i looked into the golden gate bridge and transportation district i thought about what i had to offer. the building and operation committee oversees construction programs and facility maintenance. in my 30 years of construction i oversaw many construction jobs from planning and design to final startup. >> i delivered install plans and maintenance plans to keep these projects running long after construction was complete. i currently oversee the operation and maintenance of our two training centers and i'm involved with the design and construction drawings of past remodels for planned expans

and this isn't the 1st time we've heard talk like this. trump son in law and foreman top advisor, jared question or has previously expressed great interest in gases. land seeing it's great potential for waterfront, real estate and gases waterfront property. it could be very valuable to if people would focus on kind of building up, you know, likelihood. so i think that it's a little bit of an unfortunate situation there, but i think from israel's perspective, i would do my best to move the people out and then clean it up. but i don't think that is real. has stated that they don't want people to move back there afterwards . well, are they real? are they serious about that? now? some is really yeah. experts believe this whole relocating gavin's thing could be a bluff and negotiating tactic to which normalization agreement between saudi arabia and a as well. do you know trump's these piece between tel aviv and we got as part of a golden age for them? now trump is making his move using the momentum from gas. 5 a 3. yeah, it has one major conditioning a deal without a real path to cavities to

called a privilege walk as part of the orientation where were given identity and i was a scandinavian foremanlike i discriminated against because of government services or people don't like how i look so you took a step forward if it applied and if it didn't so i ended up near the front and the indigenous woman with unwanted pregnancy and the male prostitute were at the other end and we talked about our privileges. >> but what exactly is a privilege walk? he described a little bit of it but take a look at what it looks like. >> if you've ever been diagnosed as having a physical or mental illness or disability, take one step back. if ever been bullied or made fun of based on something you can't change, take one step back. if you get time off for religious holidays, take one step forward. >> dispense describe feeling ashamed, advantages they can't control. >> looking back and seeing people behind you, it's not a good feeling. >> it's weird to hold on to explaining certain privilege that's not me because had to work hard for that so it's weird to take a step toward. >> it was frustrating to look

heather higgins, andy butner, victoria from independent woman's foreman, it's a fantastic group of people that have fought very hard in this issue. i think everybody in this room fought very hard on this issue. tim fletcher? [cheering and applause] [applause] >> ceo of the concerned women for america packmak that is a lot of people, thank you very much. as a lot of people. so just to finish up, correcting the secretary of state marco rubio who is doing a fantastic job. [applause] he just left panama, we are trying to take back the panama canal. little things like that. it'll happen. he's going to the international olympic committee's and he's going to make it as clear as anybody can make it that america categorically rejects transgender lunacy. we want them to change everything having to do with the olympics and having to do with this absolutely ridiculous subject that we even have to talk about the subject. if you went back ten years or 15 years and you would move forward and listen to this you would say what are they talking about, this is impossible but people out there, democrats are

the raindrops already foreman 19 minute ride. %iane james, back to you. come for all fired up with our team coverage for this storm to get you through it. let's go to the north bay first. yeah. that's where we've got the russian river still hovering right around flood stage this morning with rain on the way. joey horta standing by live in guerneville chile. >> james darya. good morning. yeah. there is still definitely homes here that we're looking at now that are surrounded by water. but the good news is it's beginning to recede in this part of town right now. look at this sign here. the road closure sign. this is where the water level was yesterday, right? where you see my phone moving. that's where it was. so it's gone down a couple of feet since this time yesterday. but it should have gone down several feet. more from what the national weather service was predicting by now. flood stage. here is 32 feet in guerneville. the latest update, though, from 2 o'clock this morning shows it is still at 34 feet. so its only drop by about 2 feet since wednesday mo

finding and funding some progressive pod casters and the influencers because research shows where the foreman'salk radio, cable news or podcast outrage is a much easier sell then is moderation or careful analysis of the issues. bob identified this problem i think 30 years ago. bob, as i remember you called talk radio thing a grievance network. those a of us is based certain e or member the previous democratic attempts to build more liberal talk infrastructure like air america if you all remember that. never gained much traction. went down in flames shortly after they were launched. i am not smart enough to know how to square the circle. i know if you want to stop conservative voices from setting the nation's news agenda if you go into it not here in california maybe but if you go into ohio or michigan or pennsylvania that you go into a small town it's a barbershop or a bar you've got fox news on tv everywhere. it is constant. we've got to figure out a way to stop rightht wing media ecosystm from dominating the national conversation. go ahead. i think there has to be a direct deposit into invest

george foreman? joe frazier? we have the best recruitment we have seen in a long time.ous number of people wanting to sign up. january 2025 was a turning point in american history. starting last week, we are ending years of incompetence, radicalism and betrayal and ushering in the most exhilarating era of reform and renewal in the history of our country. in conclusion, i just want to say that this is been a very exciting. there's nothing we cannot achieve as long as we remain united. i hope you can remember that. [applause] and it's one thing i give the democrats a lot of credit for because they have lousy policy. half of them are totally crazy but they stick together. they stick together on stuff that nobody can -- how can you went prisons emptied out into our country? they stick together on everything. impeachment hopes number one in two. they stick together. you gave me great support during those two problems, those two fake witchhunts that have turned out to be totally fake and disgusting. the republican party has to stick together. we cannot have people going. we d

and tom foreman is out front. >> we're getting rid of all of the cancer. i call it cancer. the cancer caused by the biden administration. >> reforming or doing away with the federal disaster relief agency, fema dismantling diversity programs, rolling back environmental restrictions, accepting only two genders, replacing nonpartisan federal workers with administration loyalists, and aggressively pursuing undocumented immigrants. all of those ideas are being pushed by president donald trump. and according to cnn's analysis, many reflect deep ties to project 2025. the 900 page plan of action put out by the conservative heritage foundation. during the campaign, trump repeatedly denied any ties to the project. >> i have nothing to do with project 2025 that's out there. i haven't read it. i don't want to read it purposely. i'm not going to read it. >> and yet, of the 53 executive actions in his first week in office, cnn's analysis found more than two thirds align with the project's proposals, including the use of active duty military personnel along the border. at least 140 trump

foreman, larry vaughn, was stunned by the results. seven to five, and that shocked me.. for those in the guilty camp, the pivotal piece of evidence, they say, was the surveillance tape. scott at home when lisa died, then lying about his day to the police. but those voting not guilty, like juror dan ford, weren't convinced. ok, that makes him a liar, not necessarily a murderer. dennis murphy: the jurors did agree on one thing, mistress stacy henderson. to the jury's eyes, scott pattison was still very much smitten. one of the questions was, are you still in love with scott? and when she said, no, and i watched scott's reaction, he was devastated. dennis murphy: but as for those petechiae bruises the prosecution thought so critical to its case, for the jury, not so much. the petechiae just didn't do it for me either way. granted, it was there. very hard for us to see. dennis murphy: as the jurors debated, the absence of evidence placing scott in the workout room with his wife kept them locked in a near-even balance. there was no smoking gun, no witness that saw this happe

jury foreman: we, the jury, find the defendant, kenneth dion, guilty of murder in the first degree as the indictment. praise god. sweet victory. it was like the weight of the world was lifted off our shoulders. he's guilty. amazing. amazing. ken dion did not kill bonnie craig and did not rape her. are you telling me that you believe your client is innocent? i am. you don't think he committed this crime? i don't. we're asking for the maximum sentence in-- keith morrison: at the sentencing in october 2011, as the prosecutor argued for 124 years, the maximum sentence, and no chance at parole because dion hadn't shown any sign of remorse-- mr. dion, as the family has pointed out, has never taken responsibility for what he's done. kenneth dion: and i never will, because i didn't do it. and that answers your question, judge. nothing further. keith morrison: kenneth dion, as if on cue, denied it all. the judge gave him the maximum but also the chance at parole when he's about 80. is it possible he actually didn't remember doing it? i struggle with that. is it possible that his protestations

in just three weeks, the federal government is being bulldozed by president trump and his project foreman, elon musk. we shouldn't be surprised, though. it is what trump promised to do. but what is stunning is the way in which it's being done. first, they're offering buyouts and threatening jobs with the stroke of an email and no succession plan, by the way. second, the world's richest man is essentially invading agencies with a mysterious team of young tech guys who he doesn't want you to know about, and they're accessing payment systems that house sensitive data, the sensitive data of americans. third, the trump administration is completely gutting agencies like usaid, which republicans have historically praised. and if there is any question who the ringleader is, this time magazine leaves nothing to chance. elon musk is essentially doing all of this without any oversight besides himself. of course. >> the president was already asked and answered this question this week, and he said, if elon musk comes across a conflict of interest with the contracts and the funding that doge is oversee
