i'm jake tapper.ing totals are giving insight bo how republicans are gaining steam who is falling behind. those numbers are more important than usual since small donors would help decide whether republican candidates can make the debate stage next month. joining me now is a candidate who says he has already met those fund-raising requirements, former new jersey governor chris christie. governor christie, thanks for joining us. so your campaign reports having raised $1.7 million in the first 25 days of your presidential bid. that's more than mike pence, but behind not only donald trump and ron desantis and also nikki haley and tim scott. they were in the race longer than you, we should note, but we are going to have to do a lot better than that in the next quarter. so how are you going to achieve that? >> well, look, jake, if we continue to raise money at the pace we've been raising it we will do just fine. as you noted, tim scott transferred a significant amount of money from his senate camp campaign.

[indiscernible] jake: i have not seen that report. all i will tell you is that the united states and biden administration strongly support press freedom, media freedom and would support no steps that would be taken to undermine that. reporter: yesterday, the u.s. -- [indiscernible] jake: i have not seen it and can't comment on it. reporter: on the f16 do you have any updates. on ukraine talk about the pathway to reform. it seems like the math -- you talk about what -- in terms of how you plan to get to nato membership. jake: allies are continuing to discuss this morning. the precise nature of the process with respect to ukraine's pathway. i won't get ahead of the decisions that are taken today and will be announced as part of the communique tomorrow. all will i say is there is a lot of good will and energy in the room. i think allies will come together around a consensus way forward on that question. i'll let senator menendez speak for himself. of course we have been in contact with senator menendez as he is the chair of the senate fo

jake? >> all right, alex, thank you so much. >>> joining us now to discuss this new military aid and much more, former secretary of defense and cia director of president obama, leon panetta. good to see you. so russia was very likely listening to joe biden's speech to nato today. how cow do you think putin rece and interpreted what biden had to say? >> i think there's no other interpretation that putin could come to, that his whole idea that somehow he can prolong this war and break the will of the united states and our allies is going nowhere. that, in fact, what he is doing is making nato and the united states even more unified. it's actually empowering nato. we're now adding finland and sweden to the membership. the bottom line is that putin understands that he's losing this war, and this meeting in these last few days, only confirmed why he's losing that war. >> so today, the president of france, emmanuel macron, pledged to be there for ukraine, even if this ends up being a drawn-out wa

jake?arlette saenz, thank you so much. joining us now to discuss the former deputy secretary of defense for russia, ukraine, eurasia. i understand the president is being diplomatic and i get the need to be, but was the summit a success for ukraine if they didn't get an invitation to join nato or even an exact time line when it could happen? >> i think it was, jake. thanks for having me on. it was because you had unanimous agreement by all the nato allies ukraine should be a member of nato. and this is very different from 2008 when the united states government was trying to pressure germany and france into accepting ukraine and republic of georgia into nato and they were opposed. and then they put out some language to paper over this difference. this is now real. they all believe that ukraine will be part of nato. there is, however, of course disagreement as you hinted towards in your question. you know, there's a question of when whether ukraine is ready today or whether it needs to do more

>> yeah, so i can't speak for jake.e pleadings and i can tell you from a procedural standpoint is appropriate. for jake to have asserted in effect assistant to council, he had to do so within a one-year period following the sentencing. that's the period during which the court had continuing jurisdiction. check out a new attorney after sentencing, and that's appropriate and no such motion for ineffective assistance of counsel was filed for a period ever. jake had the right and entitlement even though he took a plea and even though he waved many of his appellate rights, he had the right to appeal the sentence. with his new attorney who came in right after sentencing he filed a notice of appeal, but never filed an appellate brief. in fact his new attorney dismissed the appeal, so those two avenues, the appeal and the assertion of ineffective assistance of counsel which doesn't bother me, that's a part of doing business. i've been doing this for just shy of 40 years. it happens. people accuse you of that because that's all

what stood out to you from jake sullivan? this was a decision they came to with great reluctance. but as sullivan said, it's a bridging measure, that they simply can't produce enough artillery to keep ukraine going without pulling some of these stocks out of storage and sending them to the battlefield. he did say they weren't trying to say that this is relative, that just because russia is using it, ukraine should have the right to use it. but he made the argument that ukraine is already littered with tens of thousands of cluster bomb drops -- or bomblets as they're called, from russia's use and, therefore, the country will have to be de-mined anyway. so ukraine needs them, too. >> kim dozier, we appreciate your analysis. quickly, before we go, i wanted to acknowledge that sullivan confirmed there have been discussions between the white house and the kremlin over a prisoner swap, a potential prisoner swap for "wall street journal"'sgershkovich, the 100th day of his incarceration. >>> stay with "cnn news central." we're coveri

uh so uh, jake sullivan about what he said. it just to be clear, i am not a minute vx but, but this sensor is differences of opinion amongst minute checks. but you know, there is a debate and what jake's out of and so i did the compass of the fireside chat with him. as you know, at sad was, of course they need f sixteens, and of course they need long range of tennessee and full, that future security. he said, but in terms of the counter offensive of the situation now what they need is to get through minds. and because both the russians i'm, the ukrainians have good ad defense equipment and patriot missiles, et cetera. this is not at the moment a battle in the skies. this is a battle on the ground. and therefore i, an imperative is to get $15.00 men a may time whatever it is, shells. if i munitions, it shells its de mining equipment and it is of course, very controversial controversially plus to bumps. that'll be another show. yeah, i'd check this real quick. my opinion is all those things, right? it's all that you need to try t

>> thank you, jake.efore we get to that, i want to put that in perspective here. $40 billion is what we spent thus far, the united states, on supporting the war in ukraine. that's three and a half months in the war in iraq and afghanistan. last year we were spending $300 million a day on that war. this is a far more important fight. this is the most important geopolitical event of our lifetime, jake, so we have to do more. what do you mean by that? you have to get the nay sams there. they just approved of sending four systems in there but it's going to take six to nine months to have any impact. we need more air defense and get systems like patriot. we have 15 battalions in the united states army of patriot missiles. but're effective but not good at shooting down the drone so we need this, the c-ram i have seen these in action, they're amazing. they shoot down anything bigger than a soccer ball that tries to penetrate the perimeter. there are 53 systems in the army right now we need to get ten of them to

uh, so jake sullivan about what he said? yeah, just to be clear, i am not a minute vx but, but this sensor is differences of opinion amongst ministry x. but you know, there is a debate and what jake sullivan. so i did the converse of the fireside chat with him, as he know at sad was of course they need f sixteens, and of course they need long range of 10 to read the full that future security you said, but in terms of the counter offensive of the situation now, what they need is to get through minds in because both the russians i'm the ukrainians have good at defense equipment and patriot missiles, et cetera. this is not at the moment a battle in the skies. this is a battle on the ground. and therefore i or imperative is to get 15 men a may time whatever it is, shells. if i munitions it, shells, it's the mining equipment and it is of course, very controversial controversially plus the bumps. that will be another show. yeah . i checked this real quick, my opinion, it's all those things, right? it's all that you need. so chuck

sullivan, jake is clear in his statements when everyone outside the white at home , they are trying to catch him by asking do you want ukraine to win ? ending the war so he is honest, he can be trusted, at the same time, his strategic foundation can be undermined by the threats of russia and putin, and it seems sad that he has not learned the lessons of the history of eastern europe, i mean the ukraine of the baltic countries and poland, he has not delved into the history of what professor snyder calls bloody lands, without such an understanding , one cannot learn the most important lesson , which is that the language understood by the soviet or russian leader is the language of fear, if they can instill fear in us, they will keep pressing if we can instill fear in them they will stop that's a lesson that i don't think jake has learned yet about the white benz who was my boss in moscow i think he understands all this very well no just a position for which saliva it's a little different from that position which was, for example, with colonel house 100 years ago, we understand that th

jake, he's going after republicans who are criticizing even today's decision on this.e says this is hypocrisy, based on the fact they supported loan forgiveness during the coronavirus pandemic for businesses, and he also says their quote disregard for working and middle class families are outrageous, jake. >> jeremy die mamond at the whi house. the biden campaign says it's raising $72 raising $72,000 last quarter, not as much as trump raised during this portion of his presidency when he ran. is this going to damp down the concerns democrats have, the bedwetters as they're often referred to about the state of biden's campaign? >> i think it might create a temporary reprieve to the bedwetting, but i think democrats are always going to have some hand wringing about joe biden. it just is what it is with his age and things like that, but i think it does send a powerful message because there has been so much second guessing, especially in the last week or so. there's been great cnn reporting about that said bedwetting. i think this addresses it, especially the fact that he i

i consider myself woke, jake. that and not only as a soldier, but as a now citizen of florida. i'm woke. and i still live in florida. because i like to investigate things. i like to analyze things. i like to expand my view of how our military works, but how our enemies and our allies work as well. >> well how would you define woke? because as governor desantis noted yesterday, even many people who rail against wokeness and he is against wokeness as he defined it, don't have a definition. how would you define it? >> well, i've never heard him give a definition. i've heard one of his lawyers give a definition and if the definition his lawyer gave is the correct one, then i'm going to say i'm woke. it is someone that looks outside of their normal field of view. it is someone that opens their apper tour to different view points to try to analyze things in a unique way. to try and not go along with common cultural bias, but find out more things about a particular subject. that is what the military does. we're not taugh

sulliwa jake is clear in his statements when everyone outside the white house is trying to catch him asking do you want ukraine to win, he answers very carefully and consistently: we want to strengthen ukraine so that it does not suffer a defeat, strengthen it so much that it is ready for negotiations with russia to end the war. so he is honest, you can trust him, but at the same time, his strategic foundation can be undermined the threats of russia and putin, and it seems sad that he has not learned the lessons of the history of eastern europe, i mean the ukraine of the baltic countries and poland, he has not delved into the history of what professor snyder calls bloody lands, without such an understanding, one cannot learn the most important lesson, which is that the language understood by the soviet or russian leader is the language of fear, if they can instill fear in us, they will continue to press, if we can instill fear in them, they will stop, this is a lesson that in my opinion jake has not yet mastered the opinion of white benz , who was my supervisor in moscow, i think he

with the ukrainian activist as jake sullivan, you heard a touch of defensiveness there from jake sullivan. >> reporter: you did and i think what you're hearing here in public is a little bit of, at least the tenor of the conversation taking place back and forth between the ukrainian leadership, including president zelenskyy and president biden and his staff. early on in that relationship mr. zelenskyy would come to the meetings with president biden with sort of a shopping list of what it was he needed. but as the war has gone on, it's become clear what zelenskyy really wants, and as you were discussing earlier, is to be in nato so that all of the nato countries, all 32, once we deny is in, to coming to the defense of ukraine with their own troops if need be. and the fact of the matter is no one was really going to be prepared to let ukraine in in the middle of the war. as president biden has frequently said that would put us in direct combat with the russians. and in president biden's view, that's the way on to world warp iii. so that's what he's been trying to avoid. and you've just -- t

so , jake sullivan's job is to coordinate all meetings, discuss the point of view, and present them to biden to explain them and advise him, because he is the national security advisor, and therefore wait for the decision to be made by the president, which is happening. i think that it is president biden who is guided by an ambiguous fear of provoking putin to the third world war . he is afraid that putin will use nuclear weapons, which, in my opinion, is a manifestation self-restraint biden is also afraid to give putin another reason to accuse nato of the fact that it is the alliance that is his opponent in this war, not ukraine, and finally, biden is really afraid that he will not be able to maintain nato's solidarity with regard to ukraine question, he understands well that the nato countries and other partners were able to provide such decisive assistance for ukraine only thanks to their solidarity, it is precisely this that weakens putin and makes it clear that his main goal in this war has failed with a collapse, instead, he received an increased, stronger nato, more united from

and, jake, the united nations has severely criticized this. the global community calling it unconscionable, that is the word of u.s. secretary of state antony blinken who went to say that russia is responsible for denying food to people who desperately need it. global widespread condemnation. as for the bridge attack, vladimir putin wants work to restore it to begin immediately but it won't be back up and running until mid-september at the earlier. and that is just half of the roadway. it won't be fully operational until three and a half months from now. the beginning of november. this was a significant attack by ukraine, jake. >> alex, thank you so much. >>> let's talk more about this bridge attack with retired general steve anderson who was most recently in charged of army logistics and readiness and weapons sustainment and readiness reserves. so russia spent $4 billion building the 12-mile bridge after it illegally annexed crimea in 2014. putin said today that the bridge attack had no military significance. i find that hard to believe. is t

certain emotional fear of his involvement in the nuclear in the conflict, national security adviser jake sullivan encourages president biden to move in the right direction, but at this point. so far, the military support that the united states has provided to ukraine is absolutely unprecedented, and the united states , together with great britain, led the alliance . the problem is that such self-restraint or fear of provoking a direct conflict with russia has led to to the point that a significant part of this essential aid arrived in ukraine too late, if all this had been provided to ukraine from the very beginning, ukraine would be in a much better position on the battlefield than it is today and therefore pressuring ukraine to start its counteroffensive without air cover seems to be a very unreasonable decision from a military point of view, which greatly complicates the life of ukraine . in a timely manner emphasizes in a timely manner most people would be killed, we understand that it would be as big as a soda, there would be a coffee debacle, a lot of people would be shot, someone

jake? >>> the pretrial hearing in donald trump's other federal criminal case just got under way in florida. this is about the alleged mishandling of classified documents at mar-a-lago. the former president is not expected to attend the hearing in person, the attorneys are, and his co-defendant walt nauta was also seen enter the courthouse. evan perez joins us now. what are attorneys discussing in this hearing about the classified documents case today? >> reporter: the reason this hearing was called is to discuss the scope of the classified documents. essentially the handliing of soe of the documents at the center of the investigation, at the center of this case. but yesterday the judge also notified the two sides she wanted them to also discuss a potential dtrial date, this is something the spcounsel has been pushing to get on the books. they said they could be ady to start a trial in december. the trump team said they don't want the judge to set a trial date just yet because they say there

we hear jake sullivan yesterday from the podium really make the moral case for sending these cluster munitions to ukraine basically saying ukraine would be using them to defend themselves inside their homeland unlike russia, who is currently using them to attack a sovereign nation, a key distinction for the us. take a listen. >> we recognize that cluster munitions create a risk of civilian harm , this is why we have deferred the decision for as long as we could. but, there is also a massive risk of civilian harm if russian troops and tanks rollover ukrainian positions and take more ukrainian territory and subjugate more ukrainian civilians, because ukraine does not have enough artillery. that is intolerable to us. >> reporter: the reality here is that despite that defense we heard from sullivan, there could be president biden heading to europe this week really amongst the allies. we know that in more than 100 countries these cluster munitions are banned, and even in the us there is a law against transferring them, so those are two things the president will have to deal with at home a
