let's bring in mike martin. he's a war studies senior fellow at kings college london and also a former british army officer. welcome to the w. so is we just heard president biden hello says that the us military is going to air drop supplies into gaza, similar to how jordan, friends, and other countries have done. can you explain to us how exactly something like this would work? will there be coordination with these really military? do they do it independently? what's involved it so it is, as you would imagine, you know, you fly a plane and then you push supplies out the back. but what you need is an area on the grounds that has been at least cleared or secured. so i would imagine the us is going to be trying to push the 8 out near the coast, so it can flying over the sea and said it is not flying over the gaza, which is obviously a woodside. but then you need a partner on the ground either the is riley's or perhaps one of the agencies who have in some way designated an area that is a good landing it's, it's actu

i'm not the spell of for yeah, unless mike martin, let's go on our attention now to some of the other stories making headlines around the world. thousands of protesters have rallied and tele v, if demanding the resignation of these very prime minister benjamin netanyahu. the was supposed to put a ceasefire with him off and more action to free. the more than $100.00 hostages through being headed and got them focused on has a new president also, felicia thought is a businessman to and paul edition. and the widow of fox times for us to be made prime minister, been as he put to who was assassinated in 2007. it's the 2nd time society has served as prime minister as president. excuse me. the calvin shore from the german island of tons. so i have caused a to destroy on tuesday and wedding to stay in frankfort and munich value and units demanding a 15 percent rivers and 3000 your roles in inflation compensation. there's tons of stuff have searched multiple stripes to, to, to push for benefit columbia and police have addressed a suspect and truck traffic in the city of meridian and a joint ope

i missed mike martin, whether these fortifications are assigned ukraine is going on the defensive? absolutely. i think the reason that the shifting that site is the defense is because they have a lack of arguments from the west and particularly alternately ammunition and really what's happened is ukraine, his lunch from the russians. the russians built very similar falsifications that stopped the crating and offensive last year in 2023 and the trainings and now copying the trick. so how soon would the ukraine need to get the munition? the new album vents for it to go back to an offensive position. well, there's been a long standing deficit. so in some areas, the russians have been able to for a 10 shows for every show that the trainings have been able to fire. and so really, it's not how soon it's, it's a negative time in the past, they need to the munition. but once you have the munition it's, it's not a big deal to shift onto the offensive. again, providing that your troops are ready for it. and i think one of the things about defense as well, we should highlights is although the

mike martin of kings colors london told me what needs to be done before the aid arise in gaza? so uh, so the, the 1st thing i need switching out is the permissions and paperwork is still not being completed in cyprus. i'm part of that is these writing, signing off the shipments um the actual journey from cypress to dollars is about 200 nautical miles. so the shape of that. so i could do that in a day or less if it wanted to. and this is where it then starts to get very difficult. and according to the charities involved, they are planning on building or indeed already are building a pay a out to receive the supplies for the ship is very shallow. water is a beach. so you can't just drive the ship up to the coast and assuming that able to do that, not to an undisclosed location, to security reasons, then that's the biggest problem level, which is distribution online. how do you make sure that the aid is not more than stolen? you know, millions of thousands of desperate people. how do they distribute it in a 5 way and whose responsibility is, is that it's so you basically got 2 opt

that was mike martin with the king's college london. many thanks indeed for your insights. thank you. now to some of the other stories making headlines around the world, a child's military ruler says he'll run in presidential elections and name my how much interest dave is. announcement comes just days after an oppositional leader was killed during an army right in his party headquarters. human rights groups have called for an investigation into the incident. russian for ministers sort of a level says that additional weapons will be deployed to regions that may face threats from finland and sweden. his statement came just days after hungry parliament approved sweden's bid to join nato. finland join the military alliance. last april. was. well, german is defense, ministry has confirmed that a conversation between air force generals was wire tapped. the audio recording, published by russian media details confidential, military talks on the board ukraine. the german generals are her discussing ukrainian forces, potentially using german made torres cruise missiles to attack the

i asked mike martin from king's college london board. it would mean if cool, pianist gives retaken as a keep young is a town or city on quite a wide body of water. the axes, as a natural defensive bull was to that whole region around hockey that the ukrainians took back in september 22. so if it was a phone and it is quite difficult because it is well defended as his natural water features to defend it, then that would open up the area behind it. so hockey, which is the 2nd biggest city in ukraine. how has ukraine's army being preparing to fend off this russian event? so your listeners will be aware that the ukrainians, schultz, all the munition and supplies from the west. and so they have been focusing on actually doing what the russians have been doing over the last year, which is digging deeper trenches and fortifications. i'm trying to create obstacles in that. so you have several layers of trenches going backwards that will slow the russian and bones. and i would imagine that around could be, and particularly with that water feature

we leave it there for the time being, mike martin from kings colors. london, thanks so much for joining us today. thank you. mean by ukraine's foreign minister, dimitra qu, they buy is wrapping up his visit to india. he's seeking to promote, keeps peace formula to end. the war with russia today buys, beating with indian government officials, including the foreign minister, after spending most of his 1st day being shown the sites of denny, the orthopedic visit. to the memorial for my background. the de corresponding chattel cap, the k i join me from delhi. i asked him about comments from cooler about the india stars with russia based on evaporating soviet legacy. a hi release weiss may express it in the oval. not a v i. v with what the has game, but it does do that uh well, but the leadership ukraine is that you might have this one of the time. he made it very clear that he understand that the rest of the relationship is sort of lazy. but then he said that this, this relationship does not have any future. in fact, he said that the relationship seems to have much more of a future these bu

we lived there for the time being mike martin from kings colors. london, thanks so much for joining us today. thank you. for my building aircraft of us, i'm bank winfrey has been sentenced to 25 years in prison for fraud. he was convicted after leaving hundreds of thousands of customers lenders and invest as $11000000000.00 out of pocket after the collapse of his f. t. x platform in 2022. after years of being rewarded for risky behavior, sam, bank and fried, finally ran out of road, convicted for fraud and conspiracy. the 32 year old was sentenced to more than 2 decades in prison. prosecutors wanted to put him away for decades more or the 25. so it clearly is have many years that it's embankment freedom has a to face with the a judge also found to guilty on the account of perjury. so that didn't really help us and bank been a freight on the other side. the judge also sees that spreads pretty unlikely that he will repeat such a fraud in the future. and therefore, the jets as of followed it so unnecessary to go even a higher. um, i mean, the prosecution at some point was looking at 40 to

mike martin, the are as foreign minister said the country wants to widen the definition of genocide to include the blocking of humanitarian aid and also to quote, challenge the high threshold set by major states. how do you think the i c j? we'll see that i think the i c j. i will create this entirely, legally entry. well, i would hope to see this. i think i didn't get reasonable pass and would hope to see the international criminal court treat this on the. ready legal matter, i'm such as you know, the case for genocide itself, we have to be careful well as. ready behavior is demonstrably genocide, you don't and it is a matter for the court to decide whether or not if he meets the definition of legals or genocide mission. i would like to see the court pick a balanced legal position on this. okay, orland does he say is a known supporter of the policy and territories. it's a parliament to even pass the motion to recognize a separate policy and he and state officials have said that the irish knew what fireman is like in their psyche at, but i put you why aren't the other european nations

brian fitzpatrick, some of the new york delegation she and myself, mike martin garcia and california moderates conservatives figuring out how to advance the ball and we pass the limit, save grow conservatives voted to increase the debt ceiling. we'd never done that before. we pass the strongest border security bill we've ever passed, he hadn't done that in years. we passed appropriations, bills. these are all things we can do if we'll just come together and work on it, but we better get our act together over easter so we can deliver for the american piece. so just one last question before you go, sir, the attorney general of new york, letitia james is set to begin to seize trump's properties, including a golf course and private estate if he does not pay this nearly half $1 billion there bond tomorrow. that's a fine. this comes after the new york judge found that donald trump committed fraud by exaggerating the value of his golf clubs and buildings to get better loans and lower taxes. do you think that he should be punished for what the judge found him guilty of? and what do you think

assistant port director mike martin. -leadership brought through the multiyear efforts with the u.s. army corp of engineers. really appreciate being here before you chair melger--this is i think really challenging to take this all in. i think president peskin's comments were right on point. this work over several years has gone to try to detail how we can protect 7 and a half miles of waterfront from flood risks in the seismically active place like san francisco. we think about our waterfront as being somewhat immutable but knows it formed over millenia by nature and also by 1850 by acts of man to create a new shoreline when people got here and trying to put together a concerted effort through engineering analysis to say how can we protect this and define the edge of san francisco for the next century and hopefully the next century of prosperity and this being the kind of city we are proud to live and work in. we tried to boil this presentation down to help understand what the draft plan is at this point and what it is n

mike mibach. >> let's get right to chief meteorologist bill martin, who is tracking those current conditions. hey, bill. hey, mike. >> yeah. the system moved through earlier this afternoon. >> really brought significant rainfall. ariel distribution. it was everywhere, but not in terms of piling up. we didn't get big amounts of rain, except in the north bay, where they got nearly an inch up around kentfield. but most of us were under 2/10 of an inch of rain. this was the band that went through about two, three, 4:00, 5:00. tend to where you were and that brought, you know, probably the biggest pop of this whole system. as we move into tonight and tomorrow. this is the current radar. you can just see widely scattered showers now, this footprint that i'm showing you now is going to be pretty similar. each day as we go into the weekend and into sunday morning, even as this cold air stays around, there will be this continued instability which will allow for thunderstorm and maybe some snow on a peak, some hail, perhaps some heavy rain, perhaps the whole bit. but in the mountains. so we're all over

ktvu chief meteorologist bill martin here nowt& bill. yeah. hey, mike fridayúwas pretty nice. andy nice, you know. wasn't as nice as last weekendúbut still pretty good. just got off the phone with bill hudson up at palisades tahoe. they got up to about almost 30in of snow atc the top over thec last couple that's pretty encouraging. very beneficial snowfall, very beneficial rainfall aroundúhere. these are for the last two days and beneficial meaning that it didn't cause a lot of problems and a lot of we didn't lose a lot of it went into the reservoirs. a lot of it went and got into the groundwater, and a the mountains. so beneficial, if you will. as we look at the forf days, we're going to be looking at clouds around here, but pretty pleasant until aboutúwhee potentially wet again and we get into kind of an unsettled weather pattern. so today. this week the highs are going to be kind of right like this all couple of upper 60s. but we're e compared to where we were last week. there's a system that's going to kind of just sit offshore. i'll up here in a mi

mike mibach. >> let's get right to chief meteorologist bill martin, who is tracking those current conditions. y, bill. hey, mike. >>

msnbc contributor mike barnacle and jonathan martin. great group this morning. also has president biden announced a new weapons package for ukraine. according to u.s. officials, the package will include artillery shells and ammunition, antiarmor weapons, antiaircraft missiles and spare parts. defense officials say this is a one-time arrangement made possible through savings in long-term contracts with weapons makers. with foreign aid funding stalled on the hill, the biden administration working to find creative ways to help ukraine as the country faces dire weapons shortages in its fight against russia. and willie, this along with the news just a few hours ago about vladimir putin threatening to use nuclear weapons, you have to wonder what the administration is thinking was, maybe very concerned stepping right over congress to get that aid to ukraine. >> funding for ukraine is an urgent matter underlined yesterday by poland's prime minister. he spoke to reporters outside the white house following a meeting that lasted about an hour and 40 minutes saying he hopes

general selzer, general, thank you, and i want to take this time to thank martin freeman from the texas department of public safety and mike banks, where we have our own border czar. mike banks has spent more time as texas border czar in one day than the united states border czar has spend in her entire tenure. i want to thank mike banks for his job as a former border patrol agent and now as the texas border czar. but what our national guard has done, they have sealed off this entire park. and taken it over. because this area was being used by the biden administration to violate the laws of the united states of america and i said, i will not allow this texas land to be used by the biden administration to violate american laws. and i asked the national guard to take it over and they did in one day. but this is the important fact. since they took it over, the number of people that used to come across the border before were 3,000, 4,000, sometimes 5,000 people a day. now since this park has been taken over and wired shut, there is on average about six or seven people coming across a day. most of them are in violation of state

martin luther king, on steroids, okay. now, i told that, i told that, i told that to mike. i said, i think you're better than mine luther king. i think you are marginally decaying, times two. >> so, who is better than mlk? donald trump says mark robinson. now, robinson, as i said, has a history of offensive comments towards a plethora of different communities. there is actually not time to go into all of them. but to name a few, he has set offensive comments about the muslim community, the lgbtq community, the black community,u the jewish community. the list, unfortunately, goes on and on. so for donald trump to show up in this crucial super tuesday swing state, to liken this person to mlk, to then elevate him with an endorsement, is certainly uncharacteristic for a candidate, just a couple of days out from super tuesday. or donald trump, and his campaign, continue to tell me that they are laser focused on ensuring nikki haley does not win a single state. and just a couple days out, an it's about time, finally, for voters to -- themselves. >> nbc's jake trailer, thank you j

mike elizondo. and i started feeding him songs. i was like do you like this one? and i said will you just like martinhat's what he did. he took like demos of mine and just -- >> seth: and did you feel like you were capable of letting go like that? >> the first thing he played me was "evolution." and at first -- well, first i cried. i just could not believe what i was hearing. it was so -- so cinematic. and then i won't through the old but you're not playing bass on it. but you're not playing keyboards on it. but your name's not going to say produced by. and it's like oh please. bitch please. [ laughter ] >> seth: that's nice. when you're established enough to "bitch please" yourself. >> i did, i did. >> seth: shame on -- you call it tic tac and we will never forget that. but you also do duets with olivia rodrigo. you recently did that. >> i did. >> seth: the two of you got up on stage together at one of her shows. >> yes, i did. >> seth: she was also there, and congratulations, belated congratulations on your hall of fame induction. >> thank you.

know, to change your name, you know, to insist that i might just as well call you mike dobney, you would say. but but martinwho i am. and by and it's how people recognise me and they can identify that i am martin daubney. but i say again , there daubney. but i say again, there is something there is something very strange about the way englishness and in this instance, the english flag is specifically targeted. i don't think nike or anyone else would have the temerity to be playful about other people's national identity. in the way that they think, oh, well, you know, we can do this because if anyone gets up on their hind legs to protest, they will just be able to characterise them as being in some way nationalistic in a negative sense. right wing extremists, some thing about england and englishness. and i, i'm as as happy to support englishness as any of the other nationalities in this archipelago. >> superb , sir. thank you, neil >> superb, sir. thank you, neil oliver, always a pleasure to speak to you. and of course, tune in to neil oliver's show both news and online. this both on gb news and online. this

mike nichols. when i go to l.a., i'm thinking how am i doing? >> reporter: seems steve took that to heart. by the late '70s, steve martinrs with sell out coast to coast. his stand-up record, let's get small, was the first comedy album to go platinum. and then he left the stage. >> not to give anything away, but the end of the first film is your walking away from stand-up. >> right. >> reporter: why did you walk away? >> i a was exhausted by it. and i thought, wow. when i do stand-up, i have to go there. if i do a movie, i stay home and the movie goes tere. and also, it had a sense of permanence, like you could get the thing exactly right. >> i don't really know karate. >> i didn't think so. >> oh! >> reporter: so steve martin went from stand-up king to movie star. ♪ ♪ >> reporter: but he still had moments of self-doubt. >> calm down now, sir. >> i tell you why we don't calm down. because you're not excited. it takes two people for a we to calm down, doesn't it? >> reporter: there is this one moment in there where this journalist says to you, hey, steve, steve, one question, one question. why weren't you funny anymore? >

jonathan martin wrote that biden has not reached out to republicans who have refused to commit to backing trump from chris christie to mitt romney, something he called political malpractice. mikeat can you tell us about their plans to reach out to the middle? >> well, president biden raised a lot of money last night, and we get a sense today of how he's going to spend that money. at this donor meeting he held today, his senior management leadership team debuted an ad, which is going right after nikki haley voters. this ad will include donald trump's own words calling her a bird brain, saying in response to a question from garrett haake that he doesn't think he needs her voters. this speaks to the demographic breakdown that they've been tracking very closely in all these primaries and caucuses, even since nikki haley dropped out, where trump's support has been soft, where they think there are voters to be poached and now they're putting that on the air waves as well. mike memoli, phil rucker, tim miller, thank you. >>> in 60 seconds, the cavalry is coming, massive equipment and money now rolling in to begin those salvage operations on baltimore's collapsed francis scott key bri

martin standing by with more on what to expect. i had a few rain drops this afternoon in the north bay there, bill. >> yeah, a little bit of activity, especially in the north bay. mike. we had rainfall up there at about a quarter of an inch of rain already up around healdsburg. so that's the far north bay it's lining up. the clouds are moving in. you can see the in the headlands out here. you see the clouds kind of getting pushed. the moisture getting pushed up against mount tamalpais and the marin headlands. that's where some of the rain is falling out. now we've got some light scattered showers, very light. danville had two hundredths. hayward had three hundredths. depends where you are been pretty light, mostly misty for most of the bay area. that'll change overnight as this system rolls on in. is it a powerful system? yeah, it is, but it's powerful way up there. we're on this southern end of it, so we're going to get some rain up to a quarter of an inch, maybe a half inch overnight into tomorrow morning. but in terms of power for this time of year, it's just kind of a run of the mill deal. but in the mountains they got a winter storm warning, though they're goin
