talk about what this means for democrats. >> yeah, kaitlyn.and yet it is so consequential. the first way it's consequential is dealing with how the committees have been structured for the last few years. they have been evenly divided. every time they wanted to advance a nominee that was controversial, democrats had to use this very long floor process to get nominees through the senate. now they're going to be able to move more quickly in committee. they also had to get signoff from republicans to issue a subpoena. now they can pursue investigations that they want to pursue without getting the signoff. that's significant. it's also significant for how chuck schumer can operate. the whole world has revolved around manchin and sinema. he had to make sure he had every single member on board. now he could lose one of them and still advance legislation and that's important because obviously there were so many heartburns, so many heart aches when it came to things like build back better over the past two years, kaitlyn. >> manchin says he's happy not

zelenskyy is trying to make the argument that it's not working. >> that's right, kaitlyn.nk he's got a real point there, on an individual basis you're going to find a lot of people who are affected personally, people that they know are wounded or have been killed in the war. they're personally suffering shortages of electricity and water and things like that. but there's this resilience within ukraine that is really amazing to behold, zelenskyy is reflect that in the way he's actually talking about this. he's also -- by doing this, he's furthering the whole idea of resistance and making it a resilient society, something you would never expect to have happened in a country like ukrainian. >> let's be realistic about this. we're in the waning days of december, waning days of 2022. you and i started reporting this in february. almost a year. the conditions are horrific. i've been there in the winter. it is cold. give us the conditions of the war right now. >> so you've got this bone-chilling cold that everybody is dealing with on both sides. the russians are woefully unprepar

cnn's kaitlyn polantz joins us live. what are prosecutors arguing here?prosecutors are saying they are not satisfied with even recent searched donald trump's team has done of four different locations where he could have been keeping documents still after the presidency. we just learned the other day about these searches, one in new jersey, one in new york, two in florida, where two documents that were marked as classified were found and handed back over to investigators. the reason those searches were taking place now was because there's been this subpoena that's been out there telling donald trump's team you need to give everything back to the federal government that might be yours that might be a national security secret. that subpoena's been in existence for months. and the justice department keeps trying to enforce it. so the latest chapter of this now is that those searches were done by donald trump's team. the justice department is saying in court it's not enough, we don't believe possibly that you have turned over everything, we need more, and they

a source tells cnn's kaitlyn collins that the trump lawyers oversaw the search at four properties, trump tower in new york, bed minister golf club, office location in florida and a storage unit where those two documents were found and where the general services administration had shipped his belongings after he left the white house. they allowed to let them watch the search at the bedminister are property but they declined. the former president and his counsel, quote, continued to be cooperative and transparent with the federal investigation. evan perez, cnn, washington. >>> coming up, an emotional meeting with the police and the four family members of the students who were murdered last month. >>> winter coming early with bitter cold temperatures and heavy snow. derek? >> bianca, we have opened up the storm door for a large swath of the united states. storm after storm lining up bringing rain and snow to millions. i'll highlight the details of this active pattern coming up shortly after the break. that you want to keep in the family... ...or passing down the family b business... .....or

cnn's kaitlyn pollens helped report the story. what are you learning?: a team looking into the arc of the special counsel's office now in session three weeks. jack smith is stepping in to manage an investigation going on a long time and has really dug very, very, in a focused way and quickly into many, many things right around donald trump. that includes in recent weeks teams of prosecutors working on mar-a-lago and the january 6th investigations, asking a judge to hold trump in contempt for failing to comply with a subpoena related to the man mar-a-lago documents and getting national security documents back into the government and in the mar-a-lago investigation, bringing lots of top former officials advise rers, aides, in before a grand jury in washington, d.c. also been subpoenas going out in recent weeks especially on the january 6th side. and the other thing we're learning about this is, there are a lot of prosecutors at work here, victor and bianna. we know now from reporting there are more than 20 prosecutors on the january 6th side combined with

. >> and, kaitlyn, the report alleges that trump, personally, quote, oversaw the scheme with fake electorsn seven states he lost despite concerns from his attorneys, expressed concerns that doing so would be against the law. what's the significance of this? >> jake, one of the things you see in that episode, as well as the cassidy hutchinson documentation we have now, is there are so many people that witnessed what was going on and so many people that were in touch with the very senior people around donald trump, people like rudy giuliani. there's a man named ken cheeseborough who was working as a lawyer for the trump campaign. and what happens when the committee talks to those hundreds of people related to the fake electors, they're getting stories where it's not clear who has intent, who is knowingly, willfully, trying to submit these fake documents. you know who does know and who is knowingly taking part in it? it is the people that are orchestrating it, and those are people that are talking to donald trump, not just about the use of electors in those states, but how that fits into the

let's bring in kaitlyn polance, ryan goodman. also elie honing, former cnn legal analyst and former federal prosecutor. ryan, let's ickick it off with you. here we have a committee going to ask the doj to pursue multiple charges against the former president. and we just learned just coming in my colleague jamie gangel learning from a source that will include assisting an insurrection. how significant is this development? >> i think it's a very significant development. it's not one that anybody anticipated even those of us who have followed the committee very closely. it's especially important because it's the one charge that would tie the former president to the violence that so many americans saw on their tv sets and elsewhere. and that's the big question many americans would have is is there any criminal liability on the part of president trump for the violent attack on the capitol? the other charges, obstruction of the proceedings, using a lawyer to do so, or pressuring mike pence or using false slates of electors, those are s

i just needed someone to come up to me and give me a hug and say, i care about you, kaitlyn, and everything's okay. >> anthony: i'll tell you something really shameful about myself. the first time i shot up, i looked at myself in the mirror with a big grin. something was missing in me, whether it was a self-image situation, whether it was a character flaw. i came up with a stable family in the suburbs. i had a lot of advantages. there was some dark genie inside me that i very much hesitate to call a disease that led me to dope. i didn't have anyone else who could have talked me out of what i was doing. an intervention wouldn't have worked. i didn't have a child. i have a 7-year-old daughter now who i never would have thought. i looked in a mirror, and i saw somebody worth saving, or at least that i wanted to try real hard to save. anybody can find themselves very easily in this situation. and, you know, i look back on that, and i think about what i'll tell my daughter. you know, that was daddy. ain't no doubt about it. but i hope i can say that was daddy then. this is daddy now. that i'm aliv
