tv   The Source With Kaitlan Collins  CNN  March 8, 2024 6:00pm-7:01pm PST

6:00 pm
>> it's incredible. it's still missing. tom foreman joins me now. i understand an american company has submitted a proposal to the malaysian government to start searching for the plane again. what is the company saying? >> well, this texas company is the same one that was searching some years ago. they're basing a lot on the idea of new technology. better search methods. maybe that will help out. they sent a statement to us where they said, we've been working with many experts, some outside of ocean infinity, which is the company to continue analyzing the data in the hope of narrowing the search area down to one in which success becomes potentially achievable. that is a really tall order, anderson, because the whole problem all along is this is a vast, vast area out there. but if they succeed, it could be more than just ending a mystery and relief to these families. it could also help solve a puzzle for the aviation industry, one that still is potentially a threat out there because they don't know what happened. if if they can succeed. >> yeah. tom foreman, thank you.
6:01 pm
the news continues. the source of caitlin collins starts now. >> straight from the source tonight. >> the state of the union on steroids. biden goes for the jugular again as trump host vladimir putin's buddy at mar a lago, a strong man accused of turning his country's democracy into his own personal dictatorship. and there's a jarring reality check on that floating pier to russia. >> emergency aid into gaza blocked by land now months delayed at sea. >> and there's word tonight of a deadly accident while dropping aid from the air as biden is caught on a hot mic revealing what he wants from netanyahu. and my friend. conversation with four women in power fighting back in the flashpoint over abortion rights. sharing four very personal stories. i'm caitlin collins and this is the source.
6:02 pm
>> joe biden went there tonight. >> the president bringing the heat as he kicked off a march through battleground states. this time he dropped the whole my predecessor stuff that you heard 13 times last night in the state of the union, and now he's just calling out trump by name, all while the presumptive republican nominee is welcoming a new house guest who just happens to be the man redefining what it means to be a modern day dictator, the incumbent president shows no signs of slowing down his fiery, combative state of the union message from last night. tonight, his plan of attack is on full display. joe biden wants to cast the 2024 election in no uncertain terms. >> donald trump with the maga republic. you're trying to take away our freedoms. that's not an exaggeration. well, guess what? we will not let him. we will not let him. the alabama supreme court shut down ivf treatments. do you know why it happened? i'll tell you why. one reason
6:03 pm
donald trump, will you ride down the street? and there was a trump banner with a few on it and a little, and a six year old kid putting up his middle finger. it demeans who we are. that's not who america. that's not america. he thinks putin is a strong basically, he's a decent guy. you know who he's meeting with today and down in mar a lago, orban of hungary, who stated flatly he doesn't think democracy works. he's looking for dictatorship. >> i want to bring in two top political minds to start us off tonight. democratic congressman ro khanna of california and republican strategist rina shah, both here on set. and congressman, i mean, you know, there was a lot of democratic anxiety going into the state of the union last night. biden's age has been a big concern for voters. how did you feel coming out of that president? >> hit it out of the park? i mean, he was brilliant. i thought the best part was actually when he talked about how his lifetime of experience
6:04 pm
gave him a moral clarity. and his whole life he's been standing up for compassion, dignity, decency. and those are the values that are at stake in what he's going to fight for, for america's future. it was a rationale for his whole candidacy. >> what do you make of how he was not saying trump's name at all last night? just my predecessor, my predecessor. and now today, i think it was like nine times. he had no issue going after him today in pennsylvania. >> you know, i think one of the things people don't appreciate about the president is he's an institutionalist and he's quite traditional. and i think he honors the state of the union. so he didn't think it was appropriate probably to use that at the state of the union. it's appropriate on a campaign trail. and my guess is that's why he's willing to use it on a campaign stop. >> yeah. i mean, republicans, though, as you saw them last night, they were saying the complaint initially had been biden's too old to be president. they were basically waiting for him to trip, walking down the aisle to get up there. but then they were complaining that he was loud. they said he was divisive, that it was too political. of a state of the union speech. >> i went in with really low expectations. i was expecting to
6:05 pm
sort of even lose engagement at some point, but he kept me engaged the whole night. >> i was really surprised. >> so very surprised also that early on in the speech, it was like, whoa, what am i listening to? it was very a la donald trump at a podium without all the other divisive talk and the name calling. and there was a moment also where i got what i wanted this week because i started republican women for biden in 2020 with the expectation that i would vote for a republican this time. and this past week, i cast my vote for nikki haley proudly casting my first vote ever for a woman as president. so i will say, i was thinking to myself, what do i want to see from this president? how do i not want to see him fail as somebody that cares about this country and wants to put country over party? i want to data points and i got exactly that on the economy, primarily is what i was looking for, but also one part where i wanted a little bit more and i didn't get it. caitlin was the border immigration because that's where i felt the republicans were throwing it in his face last night, with lake and riley tying that to crime and public safety, the border issues and immigration, can republicans still legitimately
6:06 pm
use the h thing after seeing how he did last night? i think they can because he's not aging in reverse. there are going to be moments in this next many months where he's going to look tired, like humans do. somebody who's 80 is not going to have the vigor of somebody who's in their 50s, and that's just the challenge. but hey, this can happen for trump as well. what the biden campaign needs to keep doing is reminding folks of the moments where donald trump seems cognitively impaired, that he's just three years his junior, biden's junior. so again, age is going to continue to factor in. but the cognitive ability, he certainly showed he was up to the mark last night. it's how he continues the momentum. >> well, that is the question. i mean, biden, republican has set the bar so low for him last night that it was just easy to essentially walk over it. but the question is, can he keep up that momentum? is that something you know, how what are democrats saying about that and what that looks like for the next eight months? >> there was enthusiasm this morning in the house democratic caucus. i mean, people, it's no secret that there were some people who are murmuring, is he up to it? and he decisively
6:07 pm
answered that, at least for democrats. but he did something more than just show energy. i think he took this age issue and did a jujitsu, he said. at a time in this country where we're polarized, where we're anxious, where there are people who are talking about hate, let me tell you my lifetime of experience tells me what it means to be an american. i was born in world war two, where we stood up for freedom. those are the values that helped define me, and those are the values that i'm going to fight for. i think he showed that it can be an asset at this moment. >> is that an effective tactic, do you think, is that what his argument about his age should look like going forward? >> i do look, jeffrey katzenberg is chair has been saying, you know, go embrace your age like a like harrison ford does. he can't be harrison ford. but i think he found a way to explain why experience. why statesmanship, why a lifetime of living? america's story matters at a time where america's story is being attacked. there are two different visions that he's saying, here's the story i grew
6:08 pm
up with. here's why i want to fight for these values. it's given me a clarity of why we have to be an inclusive society. >> you mentioned polarization and you heard president biden today. one thing it was just surprising because, you know, when your reporters traveling with him, you're always wondering, does he notice what you're noticing on the way to the events, which is a lot of supporters, but also a lot of protesters, because they know where the president is coming and he's he's talking about the six year old giving the middle finger. i mean, it does speak to the moment that we're in as a country. does a vigorous speech make a difference? i guess for something like that? >> look, i think the president got a lot of things right last night. his motorcade was rerouted because of the protesters out there calling for a cease fire, which he's already says he wants. now to me, it's a little late, but but look, i'm an interesting, different voter on all this. my biggest gripe with the president right now is somebody who has a family history where my family escaped a dictatorship, and that's squarely why we're in this country. we had to escape idi amin in uganda. and i know what that's like. so when you have that personal experience with dictatorships and defending democracy, you understand it.
6:09 pm
but not everybody feels this way. i've had numerous conversations with republican operatives, even, who don't feel like the defending democracy message is good. and they also feel like what kind of democracy do we even have? so i think the president needs to pivot and talk more about kitchen table issues, the border and immigration. >> we'll see if he does that. reena shah, congressman rokana, great to have you both here on a friday night on set. and meanwhile, as we noted at the top of the show and this bigger conversation about democracy, not just in the united states but on the world stage, the strongman hungarian prime minister, is in the united states tonight, but not to meet with anyone from the white house. he didn't get an invitation to sit down with president biden, we are told by white house officials. but viktor orban did meet with someone that he is certainly hoping could be in the white house soon. donald trump today at mar a lago, trump hosted the man who i should note is responsible for busting democratic institutions and tightening his grip around the throat of his nation's government, a meeting that we have learned trump's team says was about 90 minutes in a casual catch up here tonight to talk
6:10 pm
about that is the coauthor of the new york times best seller how democracies die, and a new book titled tyranny of the minority. daniel ziblatt daniel, i just you know, when you look at these two leaders, they have this long history of admiration for one another. and i wonder what it says to you that for the first time since trump became the presumptive republican nominee this week, with nikki haley's exit, what it says to you that the first leader he's meeting with is this european autocrat? >> yeah, we have to put it in context. >> you know, hungary is a country that exited communism in the 1990s. and for the first part of the 21st century was a pretty robust democracy. viktor orban had been in power, was voted out and very parallel to trump, came back into office a second time in 2010, promising to himself that he wouldn't lose another election since 2010. hungary. hungary's democracy has plummeted the freedom house ranks. democracies plummeted to a score of 65, which basically puts it on par with the dominican republic and senegal. so this is no longer a democracy
6:11 pm
. and the fact that donald trump views this as a model is kind of shocking. >> yeah. what does it say to you that he doesn't get an invite to the white house? but he does get an invite to mar a lago. >> yeah. so hungary is part of the eu. it's part of nato. but it's really the weakest link in nato, and i think what this shows you is that really there's a there's a potential alliance here between trump and other kind of autocratic countries. this is somebody who's, viktor orban, somebody who was elected to office. but once in office really adopted the authoritarian playbook, which is something that donald trump has said he admires. this means going capturing the referees of the state, the impartial institutions, the judiciary. one of the first things that orban did when he came into power was to capture the court system. the second thing he did was he went after opposition players, he attacked the media. he had his friends buy up opposition, critical media. and then the third thing orban did to squelch democracy in hungary was to tilt the playing field, to make it so. it was hard for the opposition to vote him out of office. and in particular, what orban did was he gerrymandered
6:12 pm
the election system. so it really was very difficult for his party to lose. from donald trump's perspective, this is something to be, to as a model. and so that should frighten all of us. >> yeah. do you think we could see echoes of that? if trump does return to the white house and have a second time? >> yeah, i think we really need to think about what this means concretely for americans lives. you know, so in many ways, you know, we know abortion rights are under assault in red states, in particular in the united states. but this is really only the tip of the iceberg. you know, one of the things that's happened in a lot of countries that where autocrats have been elected is actually abortion rights have come under assault and other kinds of freedoms. so this means very specific things for americans. and, you know, american lives. and it's not just an abstract kind of debate about a democracy. and the thing that i think we have to remember again here is that trump and his allies have said this is really a model. and so, you know, american democracy is more robust than i would say, hungarian democracy. we have a federal system, but we certainly should not take our democracy from grant for granted. and i think we really need to learn from other countries. >> and it just shows you,
6:13 pm
because this is not how other european leaders in that bloc view trump. they're much more skeptical of what a trump return to the white house would mean for them, for their alliance with the united states and just for the us foreign policy. on a broader scale, if you look at other countries in europe that have the highest democracy scores, more like the united states, switzerland, norway, these are countries outside of europe, new zealand, these are the countries we should be emulating and be friends with. >> these are countries that have high democracy scores, that have robust, that are robust democracies and people that are the leaders of these countries and citizens of these countries are quite worried. what this means, in particular in europe with the russian invasion of ukraine, the idea that we might have somebody in the white house who doesn't take the nato alliance seriously as viktor orban is, you know, is again, probably the weakest link in the nato alliance who tried to block sweden from joining nato. this means, you know, a lot of people like to go to you know, what this means very specifically. again, this is not an abstract issue. people like to go to vacation to tuscany in europe. what does this mean if nato is
6:14 pm
not there to defend this? i mean, this really affects people's lives. this affects people's lives in europe, everyday citizens. and so again, we need to really take this seriously. >> daniel ziblatt, great to have you on. thank you for joining. >> thank you. >> up next, it turns out that the president's latest plan to get more aid into gaza could actually take much longer than expected. it could go on for months, and it would require also almost 1000 us troops to set it up and put it in motion. we're live with the top house progressive, who has been pushing the president to do more. plus, donald trump has found a way to finally cough up about $90 million. that means only $450 million more to go. >> to be a headliner las vegas that's what i want to do vegas. >> the story of sin city next sunday at ten on cnn. >> introducing ned's plaque. psoriasis >> he thinks his flaky red patches are all people. see? >> otezla is the number one
6:15 pm
prescribed pill to treat plaque psoriasis. otezla can help you get clearer skin. don't use otezla if you're allergic to it. >> serious allergic reactions can happen. >> otezla may cause severe diarrhea, nausea, or vomiting. >> some people take new tesla had depression, suicidal thoughts, or weight loss. upper respiratory tract infection and headache may occur. >> live in the moment. ask your doctor about otezla. >> have you heard sling tv offers the news you love for less weight. >> you look and sound just like me. actually, i am you because i'm the same news programs on sling for less. you mean you're me, but for less money a lot less. i'm all your favorite news programs and more on sling starting at just $40 a month. everything great about me. but for less money, which makes me greater. don't you think? it's the same news for less? >> starting at $40 a month? >> sling smile. you found it. the feeling of finding psoriasis can't filter out the real you. so go ahead, live unfiltered
6:16 pm
with the one and only. so tick to a once daily pill for moderate to severe plaque psoriasis and the chance at clear or almost clear skin. it's like the feeling of finding your so ready for your close up or finding you don't have to hide your skin, just your background. once daily. so tyk2 was proven better. getting more people, clearer skin than the leading pill. don't take if you're allergic to so tyk2 serious reactions can occur so tyk2 can lower your ability to fight infections, including tb, serious infections, cancers including lymphoma, muscle problems, and changes in certain labs have occurred. tell your doctor if you have an infection, liver or kidney problems, high triglycerides, or had a vaccine or plan to. so tyk2 is a tick two inhibitor. tick two is part of the jak family. it's not known. if so, tyk2 has the same risks as jak inhibitors. find what plaque psoriasis has been hiding. there's only one so tyk2. so ask for it by name. so clearly you so tick to. >> my name is brian haflinger and because of tiktok, i have the power to educate people and hopefully save lives. >> when my son brian died in a
6:17 pm
drunk driving accident, i put out a video about it and tried to stop the young people from drinking and driving. >> no other family has to go through what we did. >> tiktok has the power to change society and i think that's where the power of tiktok lies. >> if you save one person, that's one more person that can change the world too, right? >> if you have graves disease and itchy eyes, the truth may be even more uncomfortable. >> people with graves could also get thyroid eye disease or ted, which may need a
6:18 pm
you a bottle of our newest fat burner, thermo x, absolutely free. >> i'm going to kill aquaman and destroy everything he holds dear . and took junior to pick a fight. i don't know what lies ahead, but we can't leave our world without hope. >> you want blood? come get it. >> aquaman and the lost kingdom.
6:19 pm
>> now streaming exclusively on max. >> president biden, taking his state of the union message on the road today. the president and the vice president, both hit the battleground states of pennsylvania and arizona. the rest of the cabinet is expected to be all over the map. quite literally, in the next few weeks. tonight, here on the source, we have two key voices on the left as we dig into two issues that the biden team knows could be problems for his reelection effort. we're going to start in gaza, where even trying to feed hungry people there is now carrying the risk of death. we are told tonight that at least five people were killed when air packages like what you see here, these aid packages that are now being air dropped fell on them in the camp west of gaza city. the us department of defense says that those deaths were not caused by us air drops. i should note, but this comes as today we found out just how hard it is and how it's not changing really, to get aid into gaza. we are now told that
6:20 pm
it could take several months and a thousand us troops to build that temporary port near gaza, to deliver more aid into the enclave as the israel-hamas war is raging on. my next guest told the white house directly that this issue that democrats could quote literally lose this election to donald trump over this war. washington democrat and progressive caucus chair pramila jayapal joins me now. congresswoman, thank you for being here. we are hearing president biden speak out more forcefully on gaza. but i wonder if these changes are meaningful enough for you and for other progressives. >> well, caitlin, it's always good to be with you. look i think that there is progress, but it isn't sufficient. i think what the president was trying to do last night and announcing this new plan, which i think we all wondered, frankly, how it was going to happen quickly enough for the urgency, the emergency conditions that we're seeing in gaza today. with
6:21 pm
500,000 people on the brink of starvation, 30,000 people dead, 21,000 of those are women and children, i think the president has been slowly moving his rhetoric and trying to show that he deeply cares about what is happening in gaza. but at the end of the day, why are we airdropping? the first drop was 38,000 meals, 500,000 people starving. why are we airdropping into gaza? we are the largest funder of military aid to israel, and i think that there is going to come a time very soon when there needs to be a policy decision and in my view, a policy shift to utilize the funding leverage that we have with israel to make sure that we actually can get humanitarian aid in immediately, that we can get the hostages released and we can clear the decks for some sort of a long terme, solution for peace for israelis and
6:22 pm
palestinians. and i really believe that the only way israel is going to move to that is if we utilize our funding leverage and really shift our position towards israel. that we've had so far. >> i've heard you say that that you believe there will be a time soon for that change, for that shift. why is that time not now? >> well, we've been saying it should be now. i've called for an immediate and permanent ceasefire. it has taken time to push the administration. and i think that they are beginning to hear us. it's late and too many people have died. and the reality is we have the stated positions of the united states, whether it's a two state solution, whether it's no settlement, expansion in the west bank, whether it's not, not , having a ground incursion into rafah and pushing palestinians again away from where they were told to go in the first place, all of those things have been
6:23 pm
opposed by benjamin netanyahu and the israeli government. the current israeli government. and i think that we have to understand that at this point, this israeli government under netanyahu has no intention of aligning itself with stated united states policy goals. so i agree with you. it is. it needs to be immediate. and i don't think we have very long to wait. and that's just from a pure humanitarian perspective. give as well as a peace and security perspective. but of course, caitlin, there's also a political perspective here, which is we don't have much time to really hold together what was always a fragile coalition in 2020 and will be a fragile coalition again politically, for us to be able to win this election. >> so you're you're doubtful about this idea of this, this temporary port that could take a month, maybe two to take. you are casting doubt on the airdrops, which i think a lot of people are, because, you know, who's catching these and who's
6:24 pm
helping disperse this? and is it even enough to feed the hungry people on the ground? and president biden was on a hot mic last night saying this to senator michael bennet about israeli prime minister netanyahu . i told him, bibi, show me peace. >> this is it. even after just he said that he is going to have to have a come to jesus moment with the israeli prime minister. >> i mean, when you say he has no intention of aligning himself with with what president biden and what the us is seeking here, what does that moment mean? do you think the white house realizes that? >> i think they do. i mean, i you know, i don't know exactly what that meant from the president, but i know in my conversations with the white house, we have been making it clear that this shift in policy needs to come extremely quickly yesterday. but i was hoping i would hear it in the speech last night, but i was pretty sure that i, i was pretty sure that
6:25 pm
we would hear what we heard, which was still progress, but not sufficient. >> so when does it hit the breaking point for you, i wonder? because there's doubts that there's going to be a cease fire in place by when the holy month starts monday. and i think there's real concerns about violence in east jerusalem as a result of that and what that looks like. i mean, when is that breaking point for you, congresswoman? >> i mean, to be honest, caitlin, the breaking point was some time ago. that's why i started speaking out publicly after speaking very privately to the white house. but, you know, i think we've continued to see this lack of respect for what we say we want. and frankly, i think even if you only cared about israelis, and i know the president cares about israelis and palestinians, but even if you only cared about the security of israel, we have had a number of experts who are from the, the, the israeli perspective talking to us about how this is no way to get to any kind of peace and security in the middle east. it is not going
6:26 pm
to help israel to be able to live with security. so i can't answer the question for you about when the breaking point is because frankly, for me, it was some time ago. that's that's how i feel. and that's why i've been pushing so actively, publicly and privately to say to the white house, to the president that this needs to come immediately. and we you know, i think that was true from a humanitarian perspective, from a security perspective in the middle east for peace. but also, as i said, from a political perspective, you saw what happened in michigan. you saw that there was a 19% uncommitted vote in minnesota. we have an uncommitted ballot in washington state. and i think that you are seeing black clergy coming out. that's why the vice president's speech at selma was very important when she said, we need an immediate cease fire now. she said, for six weeks, and i believe it should be an immediate permanent cease fire. but i think you are starting to see this shift and i agree with you. we don't have we don't have time this needs to happen
6:27 pm
urgently because thousands of people are dying, literally as we wait it week after week. >> congresswoman pramila jayapal, thanks for joining us here on the source. >> thank you, caitlin. >> and now to turn to another issue that the biden campaign knows it's going to be confronting over the next eight months, one that impacts every single american money, the economy. president biden looked to capitalize on the support that he has been building from labor unions, as he welcomed the head of the uaw to the state of the union last night. and i'm joined now by the president of the united auto workers, sean fein. great to have you back here on the source. it's very clear that a big test in this election is going to be how voters feel about how president biden is handling the economy right now. of course, we know they don't think he's doing enough. what do you think he needs to do over the next eight months to change that? well i think the president's done a lot. >> i think we have to look at
6:28 pm
his presidency as a whole. i mean, i think first off, we have to look at what he walked into. he walked into a situation where the former president, was denying that covid even existed and that it was just a farce and it was fake. and, you know, the president embraced that and went after it and, you know, helped us move forward. and, you know, and let's be real, i mean, i think the right likes to blame a lot of what happened with inflation and the economy on president biden, which is just untrue. the inflation that happened was flat out two words corporate greed, you know, it was consumer price gouging and companies took advantage of that. and, you know, but you look at the economy and what the president's done. i mean, you know, he's he's a revived a community that was written off for dead. a plant was going to close. and now there's two plants going up there. i mean, he he worked with us to fight for those things. he's worked with us to, to, you know, with a with a just transition for the battery ev industry, you know, and i think he really did a great job last night of just showing the difference to me last night, joe biden made it
6:29 pm
very clear that there was only one candidate fit to be president of the united states. between the two that are the front runners. and that's joe biden. >> you know, you talked to white house officials and democrats and they agree with you on that. but the problem is, when they look at the numbers, it just doesn't seem to sink in with voters that they don't feel it. and that when you look at some of the recent polls, they trust donald trump more with with his stewardship of the economy than they do joe biden. i mean, why do you think that is, i think a lot of this i mean, look, trump's a he's a con man. that's what he's always been. he's a con artist. he tells people what they want to hear. he tries to make people feel good. but at the end of the day, i'll just be blunt. his results suck. you know, i mean, i look at look at what the president talked about last night, you know, donald trump every year of his presidency. tried to push for cuts in social care, social security and medicaid, medicare, you know, joe biden was very clear about that last night, that, you know, he will not
6:30 pm
stand for that. you know, you look at working class issues, things that matter to people, you know, good wages, good benefits, retirement security, those health care, you know, having adequate health care coverage. and when have you ever heard a sitting president talk about corporate greed and a billionaire class that's not paying their fair share share of taxes? i mean, joe biden talked to all those things last night, donald trump when he was president, 80% of the tax cuts he gave went to the top 1, which doesn't benefit anyone. >> yeah, but can i ask you on that front? i mean, so much of this could just come down to really the margins. and we've seen how small they are. and a very small sliver of states. and since the last time you and i spoke michigan had its primary a very strong uncommitted vote, which was democratic voters there protesting how president biden has handled the war in gaza with israel. yeah, we also saw in minnesota. and i wonder if you're concerned that those numbers and the support that he has with auto workers in places like michigan will we overshadowed or eroded by what's
6:31 pm
happening in gaza right now? >> i'm not concerned. i look at that issue and obviously something has to be done. and the president is shifting and they are they are moving more towards, you know, they're called for a ceasefire. i mean, he's he's, you know, looking at getting more aid, humanitarian aid. and the thing is, i mean, i do believe that the reality is this one of these two people are going to be president of the united states and if anyone that is concerned about palestinians or what's going on in gaza thinks donald trump has the answer to their problems, i don't know what to tell them. so i do believe come election time those people will come around and vote for biden. and i do believe biden will win. michigan auto workers are going to vote overwhelmingly for president biden. >> sinn fein, as always, great to have you, and we'll have you back soon. thanks for joining us. >> great to be here. thank you.
6:32 pm
>> up next, a look at the numbers. as trump has now found a company to float him nearly $92 million, but not without some serious strings attached. >> it's easy to think that all money managers are pretty much the same. but if fisher investments were clearly different, different how you sell high commission investment products, right? >> nope. >> fisher avoids them. >> well, you must earn commissions on trades. >> never at fisher investments. >> okay, then you probably sneak in some hidden and layered fees. >> no, we structure our fees so we do better. when clients do better. that might be why most of our clients come from other money managers. at fisher investments, we're clearly different. >> i was stuck unresolved depression symptoms were in my way. >> i needed more from my anti depressant vraylar helped give it a lift. >> adding vraylar to an antidepressant is clinically proven to help relieve overall
6:33 pm
depression symptoms. better than an anti depressant alone. >> and in vraylar clinical studies, most saw no substantial impact on weight. >> elderly dementia patients have increased risk of death or stroke. report unusual changes in behavior or suicidal thoughts. anti depressants can increase these in children and young adults report fever, stiff muscles or confusion as these may be life threatening or uncontrolled muscle movements which may be permanent. high blood sugar, which can lead to coma or death. weight gain and high cholesterol may occur. movement, dysfunction and restlessness are common side effects. stomach and sleep issues. dizziness, increased appetite, and fatigue are also common. side effects may not appear for several weeks. i didn't have to change my treatment. i just gave it a lift . ask about valarr and learn how abbvie could help you save long after guests leave. >> viruses and bacteria linger. >> air fresheners add a scent, but only lysol air sanitizer helps erase the trace, eliminating odor and killing 99.9% of viruses and bacteria in the air. scent can't sanitize lysol can overactive bladder or

6:36 pm
go to shop mando comm to learn more. >> laura coates live tonight at 11 eastern on cnn. >> time is money. and just before a $92 billion deadline, donald trump barely escaped disaster today. but he didn't come up with the cash himself. the former president managed to find someone willing to put up the bond for the damages, in part, that he owes e jean carroll plus a 10% bond fee for good measure. he has vowed to appeal, but that could be an uphill battle, as we know. and he also has another deadline rapidly approaching $450 million for years of business fraud that is coming due. i want to bring in former assistant us attorney to the southern district of new york and cnn's senior legal analyst, elie honig. elie, i mean, trump didn't, like, just walk into a bank with a bag of
6:37 pm
$92 million. how does this process actually work as this appeal plays out. >> so we're going to break this down nice and simple. and i asked the team to put together a little visual aid for us if they would pop it up. yes it'll help. so there are three relevant players here is donald trump. there's the court and then there's the middleman, which in this case is a bond company. that's part of the very large insurance company. chubb. there are two relevant deals here. the insurance company has assured the court in a way that can be legally enforced. if donald trump doesn't pay whatever he owes at the end of this, we are liable for it. you the court can come get it from us. but of course, the second part of the transaction here is trump has to make promises to the insurance company, and trump has to post some amount of cash, not the full 92 amount, 92 million. we don't know how much. plus other guarantees could be deeds to some of his properties. something like that. and as you said, he has to pay interest. i mean, 10% of 90 million we can do that. math is 9 million. that's an awful lot. so it's costly. but this is the only way he can realistically post it. >> well. and the thing is, it's
6:38 pm
not the only thing that he has to pay. he also has the other $450 million coming his way. we know that he may be forced to put up properties to in order to pay that. i mean what does this kind of look like? is this like the deadlines actually happen, right? >> so he's going to have to post five times the amount. i don't know whether this same insurance company is going to be willing to do a similar kind of deal for him, but ultimately he's, i think, going to have to, you know, how when you play monopoly, if you're out of money, you have to sort of mortgage your properties and mortgage your houses and hotels? >> i don't know, because i've always worn a monopoly. >> but yeah, i'm sure you'd be devastating if i'm not playing you monopoly. but you have to put your properties essentially in hock. and then if you can't pay your debts, they can come get your house, your properties. and i think it's lucky for donald trump that he has these properties that he can use, because i doubt i mean, i'm not the financial expert on him, but i doubt he's got $400 million liquid. >> you know, we always talk about what happens if he is reelected and, you know, the federal trials go away. the trial, the case in georgia potentially doesn't work out.
6:39 pm
what happens with this if he becomes president again, how could he potentially be inoculated by being back in the oval office? >> so the answer should be nothing. you are not protected from a civil lawsuit and certainly not from collection even on a civil lawsuit, because you're president. the case that gave us that was paula jones versus bill clinton. the supreme court said, yes, a sitting president can be sued. that led to, of course, eventually the impeachment of bill clinton. now it's complicated because you don't want a president who goes into office tens or hundreds of millions of dollars in debt to anybody, never mind a court, because heaven knows what he might do, what he might be susceptible to in order to get that money together, to pay it off. so it's a tricky situation. yeah. >> people have said it could be a national security risk. elie honig, great to see you on this friday night. thank you very much. also, i do want to update our audience. we've been breaking news tonight because a us military helicopter has crashed near the southern border, killing two soldiers and one us border patrol agent. the helicopter was assigned to a border support mission and was conducting operations near rio grande city in texas. right now, the cause of what happened here
6:40 pm
is still under investigation. we will bring you those updates as we get them up next here on the source, an interview that you will only see here at 9:00, an exclusive sit down with four democrat women lawmakers. why? for them, the fight over ivf, abortion and other reproductive rights is not just political, it's personal. all >> is personal to me because bodily autonomy is something that we should all be striving for, for each. and we shouldn't even have to ask for it. we shouldn't have to beg for it. >> the day you get your clear choice, dental implants every day. let's dig in. day a chow down day a take a big bite day a perfectly delicious day a love my new teeth day. because your clear choice day is the day

6:43 pm
tell your doctor if you are or may become pregnant what you see in check and keep it there with rinvoq. ask your gastroenterologist about rinvoq and learn how abbvie can help you save you. know that thing your family does? yeah, that thing. someone made it a thing way back in the day. but where did it come from and how did it get all the way to you? >> curious ancestry can help you find out, because that thing has a story and it's still being written. >> what are you waiting for? >> a sale? well, lucky you. oh, this is our night. >> shingles doesn't care, but shingrix protects only shingrix. >> proven over 90% effective. shingrix is a vaccine used to prevent shingles in adults 50 years and older. shingrix does not protect everyone and is not for those with severe allergic reactions to its ingredients or to a previous dose and increased risk of guillain-barré syndrome was observed after getting
6:44 pm
shingrix, fainting can also happen. the most common side effects are pain, redness, and swelling at the injection site, muscle pain, tiredness, headache, shivering, fever, and upset stomach. ask your doctor or pharmacist about shingrix today for nearly a decade, i served in the navy supporting seal teams. >> today, i run sabo outdoors with fellow special operations veterans. our mobile app connects customers with hunting, fishing and other outdoor experiences. american technology has been essential to our growth, but some in washington want to stifle the technology. >> small businesses like ours depend on this misguided agenda will empower foreign adversaries, threaten national security and destroy jobs. >> our leaders need to strengthen, not weaken, american technology. >> cnn saturday mornings starting tomorrow at eight on cnn. >> today, in cities across the world, demonstrators filled the streets to mark international women's day, a celebration and a call to action to keep up the fight for women's rights here in the united states in a post-racial america, women are
6:45 pm
fighting judges and politicians just to make personal decisions about their own bodies. i sat down with four female lawmakers at the frontlines of this fight in washington, democratic whip katherine clark and rep terri sewell, susan wild and cori bush , each of them sharing their own stories. and why this battle for reproductive freedom is so personal and what it could mean for future generations. thank you all for being here. there's a reason we're all here. it's international women's day, of course, today and reproductive rights is an issue that's personal to each of you. i know, and i'd like to begin by just having you talk about why this is such a personal issue to you, why this fight matters to you so much. i'll start with you. >> well, thank you so much, caitlin. and this year on international women's day, it is really a stark reality for women here in the united states that we are seeing reproductive freedom being eroded right in
6:46 pm
front of our eyes. and so i shared my story of having a miscarriage and receiving the health care i needed. without question. now as we're looking at states like texas and other states that have put these bans in place, women can no longer get that health care, that fundamental health care, when their doctors say they need it, they still are being told to wait. >> and congressman, what about for you? >> you know, all battles have become new again. i would have never thought that in this day and age, i thought our mothers and grandmothers won that fight. and i just thought it was really important to represent the women of alabama who are not, you know, who who really understand that this is about health care and limiting their reproductive freedom was something that they just weren't going to take. >> so i have to say, roe versus
6:47 pm
wade was decided when i was in college, and i had gone to high school with a very close friend who had had an illegal abortion. >> it was highly traumatic for her. years later, she learned that she was infertile as a result of that, that abortion. but i thought that roe versus wade was the settled law of the land. >> that's what we were being promised by candidates for the supreme court who were being examined by the senate in connection with their confirmations. but of urse, we now know that it was not settled law. >> and so when the dobbs decision came down, i couldn't help but think back to my friend in high school, i had been fortunate not to ever have to have an abortion myself, but i had known some who had but what really resonated with me were the number of women in well into their 70s, 80s and 90s that reached out to me and told me their story of illegal abortions, which i had never heard before. >> congresswoman, i know that
6:48 pm
from other perspectives and things that you've been willing to share publicly. >> also about how personal this is for you based on your own experience. >> yeah. >> you know, i think about before i was ever elected to congress in missouri, we were working on reproductive justice. we were we had the right, we had the access, but not everybody had the actual care. and as someone who knows what it's like to be in a position where i needed that not only the right, but i needed the care, the, you know, i was i suffered a sexual assault when i was 17 and had an abortion when i was 18, and i didn't understand. first of all, i didn't understand what happened to me in the sexual assault. i just thought i did something wrong. i'm like, i don't even know what i was supposed to do in this situation. i didn't understand it, didn't know who to talk to. but i remembered when i found out i was pregnant and didn't even think i could be pregnant
6:49 pm
like i. it was just like, this is what my friends say. you do and you miss your your cycle and i took the test and it was like, what, but i remember my friend saying that, you know, you call this place and they'll, you know, you can have an abortion and i literally went to the thick yellow pages at the time. i went to the thick yellow pages, opened up the book called , got the phone number called, and they set up an appointment. and then within days i had my procedure. and so it's personal to me because bodily autonomy is something that we should all be striving for. for each. and we shouldn't even have to ask for it. we shouldn't have to beg for it. >> and when there's no exceptions for rape or incest, as there are in several states, it must scare you. >> in missouri, your experience in alabama? >> yeah. >> yes. missouri has no exception for rape or incest. >> what do you make of that? when we hear from some lawmakers , you know, like senator j.d. vance, who say on the idea of some states that don't have any exceptions, you know, two wrongs don't make a right. and the question is not whether a woman
6:50 pm
should be forced to bring a child to terme, it's whether a child should be allowed to live because there are americans who share that view, it is up to the person in that pregnant person to make the decision about what they want to do with their own body, when the when the child is born, no one is going and killing a child after it is born. that does not happen, it is up to that person. and at the end of the day, there should not be, especially in so many of these states, there should not be white men in red states telling people across this country, telling women and pregnant folks across this country what we can do with our own bodies. >> so without federal legislation for something like ivf, what's at stake here? >> everything is at stake. and they've made it very clear they are going to challenge contraception, just as congresswoman wilde said, they are going to challenge ivf and they have already gone after
6:51 pm
abortion. and j.d. vance has given away the game. it's not about children. it's not about families. it's about control. and he wants control. >> more of that exclusive interview right after a quick break, including a warning from those for women lawmakers about what a second trump terms could mean. >> wow. greetings happen. hi cutie. >> yeah, that's not good. happens >> huge things happen. davis home happens to be there with ring. >> learn more at ring.com. >> only at vanguard. you're more than just an investor. you're an owner. our financial planning tools and advice can help you prepare for today's longer retirement. >> hi, mom. >> that's the value of ownership . >> cidp disrupts cidp derails. >> let's be honest, cidp sucks,
6:52 pm
but living with cidp doesn't have to. >> when you sign up at shining through cidp comm, you'll find inspiration and real patient stories helpful tips, reliable information, and more. >> cidp can be tough, but finding hope just got a little easier. >> sign up at shining through cidp.com. >> be heard. >> be hopeful. >> be you. >> it's time for news about the news. sling tv has the same news programing you love, starting at $40 a month. >> it's the same news programing you love starting at $40 a month. that's what i just said, right? it's the same news for less, starting at $40 a month. sling. >> i was stuck unresolved depression symptoms were in my way. >> i needed more from my antidepressant vraylar helped give it a lift, adding vraylar to an antidepressant is clinically proven to help relieve overall depression symptoms better than an antidepressant alone. >> and in vraylar clinical
6:53 pm
studies, most saw no substantial impact on weight. elderly dementia patients have increased risk of death or stroke, report unusual changes in behavior or suicidal thoughts. antidepressants can increase these in children and young adults report fever, stiff muscles, or confusion, as these may be life threatening or uncontrolled muscle movements, which may be permanent. high blood sugar, which can lead to coma or death weight gain and high cholesterol may occur. movement, dysfunction and restlessness are common. side effects. stomach and sleep issues. dizziness, increased appetite, and fatigue are also common. side effects may not appear for several weeks. i didn't have to change my treatment. >> i just gave it a lift. >> ask about vraylar and learn how abbvie could help you save. >> my name is cody archie and i'm erica and we're first generation ranchers from central texas. >> and because of tiktok, we're able to show people from all over the world where their food and fiber come from. >> we have dorper sheep and we have beef cattle for the sole purpose of going into the food chain. we use tiktok as a tool to inform people of what we do
6:54 pm
and why we do it. there's just a plethora of knowledge and of information swapping going on their tiktok is of
6:55 pm
what i paid before. >> go to harry's comm slash shave to claim your $7 trial news night with abby philip. >> next on cnn. >> closed captioning brought to you by masso books. >> com mesothelioma. it's all we do with local offices throughout the country. >> let us help you get the compensation you deserve. >> 802 82 4444. >> back now on the sauce. more of our exclusive interview with ford. democratic lawmakers on the future of reproductive freedom in america and the two realities that the country is now facing, depending on who wins the white house come november. we are on the verge of a potential of seeing donald trump as the republican nominee. now that nikki haley has exited the race. what do you believe a second trump presidency would mean for these rights that you
6:56 pm
all have described as fundamental for women? >> well, i think they've been saying the quiet part out loud. quite frankly, i think we know what it would hold. >> i think we are looking at a rollback of women's rights and as as congresswoman sewell said, what this really comes down to, and i also want to address the fact what you said about some people do believe that abortion is wrong, that it's taking the life of a child. >> and the answer to that is those people are not being required to have an abortion. abortions are needed in all different kinds of situations. and why should we have politicians or judges making decisions that bear on all of these individual decisions? >> and, you know, this is why representation matters. you know, just think we now have a critical mass of women that are in congress. we should have more. but the reality is that when we're at the table, we're bringing up things that are that
6:57 pm
are personal and that are shared by so many. >> and so and we've even seen, of course, rural democrats, we've seen republican congressmen, congresswomen who do agree with you as well, maybe not in the majority, but on this and given what you say, not a single one of them is signed on to my ivf bill. >> they can say that all they want, but they need to put their money where their mouth is and sign on to the ivf bill. >> if they really believe that it should be a fundamental right. >> given the stakes that you laid out, if there is potentially a second trump presidency or just what this looks like is a matter of congress, are you all endorsing president biden? >> yes. >> wholeheartedly. >> absolutely, yes. >> what i want to say is what we need right now and what i'm hoping that president biden can do, will do, is, is, get us the era right now, the equal rights amendment. that would give us gender equality in the us constitution. because if something does happen and if we don't have a biden presidency
6:58 pm
coming up, we need those protections right now. >> and so you said yes. you said yes. you are endorsing president biden. yes. >> and can i just i'm endorsing a cease fire right now. so that's what i want to see. and then after that, we right now the president is in is still in a primary phase. so there is not a though because voters when they go to the polls, they do prioritize issues. >> not every voter has the same issue, but a lot of voters, you know, they see what is the most important to them, and they vote on that. if there's a voter who has these concerns about abortion access, reproductive rights, but is also concerned about what's happening in gaza, what would you say to them? >> we need to make sure our president knows, because in the same way, as an elected official, my people let me know what they want. they let me know what they want to see. these are the things that i need. and if we have a president that listens to us, if we have a president that cares about the things that we care about, that that could harm us, or where he can mitigate harm or where he can, where he can help, then i think
6:59 pm
that we should make sure he knows and he understand the depths of that. that's what this whole interview that we're talking about is about making sure that that that it is known what women need, what people like us queer folks, lgbt folks, what we need. and so if we keep our mouths closed, a closed mouth will not get fed. >> i just want to say this about abortion access in this country. the gop is on a march. they're telling us this. you can see it in the bills that they are sponsoring. and signing on to the 194 members of the house republican party who voted against legal contraception. let that set in. and there is one president candidate who is for equality, who is going to restore this fundamental access to health care for women and families in this country. and that's joe biden. >> and donald trump has already shown his hand. he was the one who picked three justices last
7:00 pm
time that overturn roe versus wade. so we know it's a binary and would undoubtedly affirmed the alabama decision. absolutely. and so we know what kind of administration donald trump will have and what effect it will have on women and our reproductive rights, our voting rights, our environmental injustice rights. i mean, you name it, name it. and so i think that it's really important that we, sound the alarm because it's ivf today. but it could be contraception tomorrow. >> representatives. thank you all for being here and for talking about this very important issue. >> thank you. thank you, caitlin, and happy international women's day to all of you. >> thank you so much for joining me tonight. cnn news night with abby phillip starts right now. >> joe biden's state of the union address just might be democrats. song of the summer.
