like magic and bird shades of that. the lead with jake tapper starts right now >> it's not just donald trump upset with the judge these days, the special counsel now has a bone to pick with a different judge the lead starts right now andy, strongest rebuke, yet special counsel jack smith goes in blasting how judge aileen cannon is conducting that classified documents case against now prompt down in florida, he says her latest action has quote, no basis in law or fact we're going to lay out what she did that has prosecutors so upset plus celebrity chef jose andres speak picking out, accusing the israeli government of systematically targeting his aid workers killing them in gaza. here his comments ahead. and cnn investigates whether another major us bridge is just as vulnerable as the one that collapsed near baltimore. this one is longer and busier than the one that i just went down
1:02 pm
welcome to the lead on jake tapper, we start today with our law injustice lead aid and special counsel jack smith and blasting the judges approach in donald trump's classified documents case in florida, basically suggesting the judge, aileen cannon does not understand what's going on in new court filings jack smith's team claimed the judge cannons recency recent actions were based on a quote, fundamentally flawed understanding of the case. one that has no basis in law or fact, unquote. >> this >> constitutes a remarkably harsh critique of judge cannon, a trump appointee, and how she is doing her job no clear sign that prosecutors are quite worried that her actions could and will benefit the defendant. donald trump. cnn's paula reid starts off our coverage today with a closer look at exactly what the special counsel's team is requesting and the trump team's counterarguments we very much look forward to
1:03 pm
presenting our case to a jury of citizens in the southern district of florida. a trial in the mar-a-lago classified >> documents case. a pure is highly unlikely to happen before the 2024 election. and special counsel jack smith, expressing frustration with judge aileen cannon new filing late tuesday, smith's team said cannon had ordered briefings based on a fundamentally flawed legal premise that had no basis in law or fact by sincere thanks to the president for his nomination. prosecutors harshly criticizing the trump appointed judges request for hypothetical the cold jury instructions. she asked both sides to take into account the former president's claim that he had broad authority to take classified documents under the presidential records act, >> whatever documents are president decides to take with him, he has the right to do so. it's an absolute right. >> prosecutors have repeatedly said that law is not relevant
1:04 pm
because trump is accused of obstruction and storing highly classified material in a bathroom and other unsecure locations at his florida estate. prosecutors also point out that telling a jury that trump had the authority to take records he wanted from the white house would make get nearly impossible to secure a conviction. prosecutors insist that legal premise is wrong, and a jury instruction that reflects that premise would distort the trial, but trump's attorneys, who are also asked to weigh in here, suggested that the judge tell jurors trump was authorized to possess a category we have documents defined as personal records, both during and after his term in office. the idea that classified documents belonged to trump, smith's team said is pure fiction. >> i was traveling for 37 years. i have never seen an order like this form or federal judge jeremy fogler says, the government will likely appeal if he makes that decision and then the case goes to trial and
1:05 pm
then he's acquitted as he certainly would be with that instruction the government has no recourse. there's double jeopardy, but an appeal will likely further delay the trial. something trump has been seeking in all his criminal cases. critic say cannon is playing right into that strategy. she has yet to decide more than a doesn't outstanding issues, including setting a firm date for the trial and how much witness information to keep under seal over a month, ago, cannon heard arguments from both sides about when this case should go forward. it's currently penciled in for may, but expected to be delayed. now at this point, as she still has not revealed, when this will go forward, it doesn't expect it. it'll be before november but that is significant because if former president trump is the elected j key would likely have his attorney general dismiss the special counsel and both of these federal cases. >> i don't think there's any likely about it >> so get a caveat it, you know, it >> will definitely have visited attorney general dismiss it.
1:06 pm
paul, stick around because i want to bring in former federal prosecutor, jean rossi, gene. first of all, what do you make of this filing by the special counsel's? kane. >> it i'm not a lawyer, but >> it seems unusual for i am right. so it seems unusual to me for a prosecutor to attack a judge in this way. >> well, let me just say this. if i were an eastern district for virginia and i filed that pleading i probably would be held in contempt the language that he used jack smith at all and he has to assistants that are varsity it was pretty pretty pointed, pretty caustic, and i infer from the filing that jack smith and his team do not have a lot of respect for the judge and that's unfortunate because in every case you tried to show some respect, but i think the gloves are off in this case and that's why they made that filing >> and how might judge cannon respond based on what we know about her. >> so she seemed skeptical
1:07 pm
about this idea that the whole case should be dismissed. that's based on this presidential records act offense. but the big question with aileen cannon is always okay. she doing what she's doing to help trump obviously doing it because he's an experience. one of the few people was better in the court with her for this case. and it's clear she is aware of the scrutiny. she's trying very hard to at least give the appearance of being fair, being tough on both sides. her inexperienced shows through and her lack of command or the courtroom. and then is over doesn't motions that she has piling up, but i have learned don't guess what aileen cannon is going to do it because it's many experts have said, i mean, what she is doing is just so unusual. >> so given how unusual it is is there any chance that this case might be taken away from her? is that possible to get >> a judge recused is a very hard, but high bar, but i think we are almost crossing the rubicon were jack smith and his team are going to say, you know what? freedom's just another word for nothing left to lose. we're going to file a motion and to get her off this case
1:08 pm
because she's already been shuafat two times by the appellate court, and i just want to comment on paul's saying this case has penciled in for may. it is the lightest pencil in the history of the united states america, invisible ink. it's invisible inke. yes. if the special counsel loses, this argument judge cannon decided she's going to let the jury here instruction's saying that trump had complete authority to take the records he wanted from the white house does that just mean that this is going to be a slam dunk case for donald trump well, if that instruction is given to the jury after jeopardy attaches, when a jury takes the oath, trump is going to be acquitted but what's going to happen if she doesn't rule if he doesn't rule for jack smith or doesn't rule at all, they're going to try to take her up on writ of mandamus to get her to basically do job. i will say this pop out a writ of mandamus is a writ of mandamus is an extraordinary
1:09 pm
remedy where you go to the appellate court or to supreme court and you say force the person who's below to do their job and it can be applied to a judge. it can be by the clerk of a court, but it's basically you're telling a judge or spellmon below to do their job. that's a writ of mandamus >> gone. >> yeah. i wanted to say this. paul brought up a good point. >> aileen cannon. i hope i got her name right. aileen cannon is relatively inexperienced. and in my 30 years doing prosecutions and defense and i have never seen a judge more indecisive in my entire career. and it's kinda sad because this is one of the biggest cases we will ever have because it involves foreign president trump. it's kinda sad in a way, but it is the reality of this matter. >> and paula, there's this other new filing the separate trump case, the new york hush money case, which is scheduled to start in less than two weeks. what's the latest
1:10 pm
filing here? >> the trump team is trying everything they can to try to get that case pushed back just yesterday, they were pushing for the judge to be recused again. and here are their arguing that the case should be adjourned because of pretrial publicity. all what they described as as the bad publicity the around trump's criminal cases. but prosecutors push back on that and say, look, pretrial publicity is not a reason to adjourn this case. anyone with a bias or a viewpoint can be weeded out during jury selection. this is unlikely to succeed, but i will caveat, were supposed to be in that trial right now is to begin early last week. now it's scheduled for the 15th. we don't fact there'll be any delay, but i caveat everything around these trump criminal cases. there's no guarantee that they will go before november and they're trying to have him recused because his daughter is a democratic operative who has worked for kamala harris, i think is this idea gene of pretrial publicity, is that a strong argument? >> it's a difficult argument. there's a famous case from 1966 ohio versus sheppard maxwell versus sheppard. it was dr. shepard, he his case was
1:11 pm
reversed because of pretrial publicity. the facts were regis, but here's the problem with donald trump's argument he's created the pretrial publicity. he has intentionally poisoned the potential jury pool. so it's like somebody who kills parents and goes before the judge and says, i'm an orphan, so be nice to me that's that's what he's doing here. and this motion is going to fail likely with lawyer jokes. that geographic and follow, right. thanks so much. appreciate it. coming up next the uproar in israel on several fronts, but directed at one man really prime minister benjamin netanyahu this year level of anger coming his way domestically and internationally he has his country's war with hamas nears the six month mark. this sunday. but first cnn on the ground and taiwan after today's powerful deadly earthquake, the frantic efforts to find survivors trapped in buildings that could be close to tumbling down. stay with us >> erin burnett outfront

parliament called the knesset some of them smeared yellow paint on the gallery windows. that color has come to symbolize the plight of the hostages and their 180 days in terrorist captivity. and it's not just the hostage families i rate with israeli leaders who in their view, we're not focusing enough on getting the relatives back over the weekend thousands took to the streets in israel in the largest protests against the israeli government since the war began. those protests continued today, cnn's jeremy diamond is with us now jeremy, israeli prime minister benjamin netanyahu's chief rival, politically benny gantz, has been working with netanyahu as a member of his war cabinet. but benny gantz did something very significant a few hours ago >> yeah, that's right, jacob, for the first time in nearly six months that he has been a member of that war time emergency governments. benny gantz, netanyahu's chief political rival is now calling for early elections in israel as early as this coming
1:25 pm
september, he says that the public must know that will soon ask once again, he says for them to demonstrate their trust in their leadership. and interestingly, he's framing it with aura of maintaining war time unity. that's particularly notable because guns while he is a member of that wartime cabinet, he's not a member of the coalition government. and so his departure from this emergency government, if that were to happen, would not actually trigger the downfall of this government. but what it would do is it would shatter that aura of war time unity, which he has provided by deciding in the early days of this war to join the government, it comes, of course, in the context of those protests that you have talked about, a very significant move. and now putting the ball in netanyahu's core, we understand the gods actually informed netanyahu of his demand for early elections. the israeli prime minister has yet to actually say what he will do on that front. >> jeremy has cnn analysis shows that the idf attack on the caravan containing the
1:26 pm
world central kitchen aid workers in gaza, that that attack was consistent with multiple precision strikes. and now world central kitchen founder, chef jose andres is addressing this directly >> yeah, he is. and what he's looking at is both what he's hearing from his team, but also at the evidence that we also looked at ourselves which is the fact that you have three vehicles here who were struck seemingly with precision guided strikes according to arms experts, potentially from a drone. and these vehicles, the distance since between the first vehicle and the third vehicle is about 1.5 miles. and jose andres, the founder of world central kitchen, saying that his team on the ground was systematically targeted >> seven team members between the spatial specialty security people we have three british individuals and three three
1:27 pm
international crew plus one palestinian that they were target systematically carbide car >> and hold andres also said that his team actually tried to contact the idf while this was all going on to tell them that they were targeting the wrong vehicles. and yet we know the results. seven of these team members were killed, six of them for nationals, sparking an enormous international outcry, including from the united states, the israeli military has apologize for the strike with its top general coming out in a video statement and doing so saying that they miss identified the vehicles, but still so many questions since remained, jay, about how they could have missed identified these vehicles with the logos on them shared. the core of the information at these continous convoy was traveling with the israeli military. a lot of questions that the israeli military has yet to answer so far, jake, sorry, jeremy diamond in jerusalem. thanks so much. democratic congressman brad schneider of illinois, joins us now he's on the house foreign affairs committee
1:28 pm
congressman cnn just learned the president biden is set to speak with prime minister netanyahu on the phone tomorrow. you led a trip to trip to israel. you met with netanyahu last week. did you press him at all on the way that israel is conducting this war as well as the humanitarian crisis starvation in gaza >> we did, we made three explicit points at the very beginning. we need to bring home the hostages. we need to make sure that israel is fighting this war in a way that protects civilians as best as possible. and there needs to be a plan four once a mass is defeated, a way to see a future for both palestinians and israelis to live together in peace. >> was he receptive at all or did he just deny that there was any sort of problem because the way that his public pronouncements have been along the lines of israel is conducting this war perfectly well. and civilian casualties are horrible, but they happen in war and it's all hamas fault. i mean, did he seem receptive at all?
1:29 pm
>> he listened to us with a robust meeting and i said about 90 minutes, one of the other things we push to mind this was right after he had canceled the visit by his advisors, a neg v. and dermer. i made very clear i thought that they should be in washington. i was pleased right after our meeting, it was announced that they it would be traveling to washington but it's important. israel has to defeat hamas as long as hamas can control guys and threaten israel, there'll be, there won't be peace for either israeli palestinians but the way israel fights this war, and the way israel lays the groundwork for the future after the war is crucial, and the united states it has been making that very clear president biden is been putting the pressure on the netanyahu government to have a plan and to have a plan that gives confidence, not just to the united states, but to the world that's watching this, that israel's fighting a just war, but fighting in a way that's paving the way for the future.
1:30 pm
>> read a part of a statement from world central kitchen founder, chef jose andres in the new york times today it's an opinion piece. he says israel was better than the way israel is waging the war. he writes, quote i have been a stranger, it seder dinners. i have heard the ancient passover stories about a strength being a stranger in the land of egypt. the commandment to remember with a feast before you that the children of israel were one slaves. it is not a sign of weakness to feed strangers. it is a sign of strength that people of israel need to remember at this darkest hour what strength truly looks like unquote, what, what do you make of all that? >> well, first let me say my heart goes out to the people that world central kitchen, their family, their friends. these were people who put their lives on the line, trying to help strangers, trying to help folks that they didn't know, but saw who were in desperate need. and from the beginning of this conflict, i've been talking to the israelis to the egyptian qatari said we need to get this aid into gaza civilians caught in the middle
1:31 pm
of the war always are the ones who suffer the most from a war >> but >> we need to be doing everything we can to minimize the impact on those civilians. but i think what said got go ahead. >> why does it say, what he said about israel is indeed true? we were at kibbutz nir all is right on the border 400 people of those 400 people who live there, 100 were either murdered, are taken hostage. >> the >> gentleman who gave us the tour of the kibbutz, his mother was taken hostage, release please. his father is still in captivity. he talked to us for a couple of hours as we walked around and saw the carnage of the attack on october 7, not once did he talk about revenge, what he talked about was bringing the hostages home and looking to build a future for his children. future where they could feel safe and secure living on the border with the people of gaza there is also a political aspect to this. and last night's primary and wisconsin more than 47,000 democrats voted for uninstructed delegates as a
1:32 pm
protest of rebuke. to president biden for his policy in the middle east. right now, progressive activists nina turner posted this quote this president must decide of loyalty to netanyahu is woworth delivering. trump the election in november, and she also noted 47,000 voted basically no confidence in biden 47,000. biden only one wisconsin by 20,000 votes i think what president biden has done for the beginning of this war. he spoke with moral clarity right after the attack. >> he is speaking to >> the israelis to the israeli government. he stood with israel. he sent the carrier strike force off the coast of israel to send a clear message, hizballah it very clear statement, don't but at the same time, i think the president is working very hard to instill in the israelis and understanding that there has to be a path to a future for both israelis and palestinians politics are politics and they're going to play out over the next six months. but what
1:33 pm
i'm confident with president biden, what he's done up to now i think what they'll continue to do, is show the moral clarity that the only way to have a future in the middle east for both jews and arabs, people who both belong to the same land is to defeat the evil of a hezbollah, hamas, et cetera. but make sure that we provide a pathway for a future of people of goodwill we're willing to live together as brothers, as cousins in peace and prosperity, not just between israel and pass 30 palestinians, but throughout the region, which is what he was doing, trying to bring saudi into normalization with israel, as well as the abrahamic cord countries democratic congressman brad snyder of illinois. thank you so much. appreciate it. >> across the aisle, republican >> congresswoman marjorie taylor greene says she's not backing off her threat to kick speaker johnson out of his leadership position with a motion to vacate her blunt comments to cnn's manu raju today >> our next with when you need

>> in our politics, lee, quite a bit as happened since house speaker mike johnson took this selfie with georgia congresswoman marjorie taylor greene five months ago. they're collegial relationship has turned into a full blown feud after greene filed a motion to oust him from the speakership last month on sunday, speaker johnson called that move a distraction >> but again, the mission is to save the republic. and the only way we can do that is if we grow the house majority win the senate. and when the white house, so we don't need any dissension right now. >> however, dissension, especially republican dissension will be on the agenda next week when speaker johnson says he plans to bring a vote on aid for ukraine, israel, and taiwan to the floor of the house. it's a move. marjorie taylor greene says, should cost speaker johnson his jobs. cnn's manu raju was live on capitol hill. and mono. you just spoke with congresswoman marjorie taylor-greene. what what does she have to say? >> yeah, she >> bluntly warned the speaker
1:39 pm
not to move ahead with any ukraine aid package, even as the speaker is planning to change the sentence, bill tried to woo republicans, includes some new border security measures. she said that absolutely should not go forward. she is a staunch opponent of more aid do ukraine, as republicans are badly divided over this issue, she told me. she said that. she said, i think that let me tell you when he forces that vote again under suspension with no amendments and funds ukraine and people find out how angry they are constructed constituents are about it. that's going to move the needle even more. but i'm going to tell you right now funding ukraine is probably one of the most egregious things that he can do. now, she would not go as far as saying it was a red line, but she went right up to that line and remember any one member can call for a vote seeking the ouster of a sitting speaker. the question, would democrats come to johnson's defense if he does move forward with aid to ukraine, that is still uncertain because it's uncertain, clear the form that's ukraine aid package will take at this key moment.
1:40 pm
now there are also concerns, jake, that if there is a push to oust mike johnson who had one will be the second person ousted ever a speaker of the house of through a vote on the floor that democrats could work with moderate republicans and move forward a more moderate speaker greene pushed back against that contention. she said, i don't think we can get any more moderate than mike johnson. she had she said there's not even any daylight between him and nancy pelosi at this point. he's lilly. lilly turned into mitch mcconnell's twin and worse and she went on to continued to rail so against mike johnson's dealmaking, of course, he had to cut a deal to keep the government open with democrats. you did not like the way that was handled. there was unveiled at the last minute as they push that through to avoid a government shutdown. but by johnson facing the perils of governing this narrowly in bitterly divided republican house conference of question is, when will marjorie taylor-greene move forward? she would not via her plants under timing, just yet. >> jake. all right. my mom erasure. thanks so much appreciate it. let's discuss
1:41 pm
this with first of all, just factcheck speaker johnson is very conservative. he's nothing like nancy pelosi >> i can't even understand it and yet she's a force in the republican party to listen to what she said to steve bannon yesterday on his podcast >> everywhere i go in my district, everyone is so angry at mike johnson and one guy to me like this, he goes do they have mike johnson's wife tie that somewhere and have a gun to her head. what is drawn with mike johnson. so for mike johnson to actually think that his republican conference support sending $60 to ukraine see is a fool, stable and he's, he's alive. whoa, hang on. >> all right. now, normally, i'm reluctant to give a microphone to congresswoman marjorie taylor-greene, but she speaks for a big part of the republican party, a part that has really had an impact on
1:42 pm
congress absolutely. i mean, look, i worked for tim scott and that was, you know, tim scott approves broadly of degrade the russian military through at ukraine. and when we'd go to iowa, that was something that we'd have to deal with a little bit. but look, i think a couple of keys here, a women's actually comes to the floor or around that time does trump way it we already saw what he can do around something so the border bill at the end of last year, what does he say on this number one? number two, it's a little bit different than six months ago, i think also because there's less incentive for democrats led to thing go totally off the rails and bring the house through a stance like we saw was frozen for three weeks and they didn't have a speaker number three, i think more than anything else, they'll get by this. there'll be a speed bump with ukraine, but what does this happen in say, november, if trump gets elected, well, he want install a speaker that's moral, ideologically predisposed to him. does he want to keep my johnson or if he loses? is there a free for all watch more so after the election, what this does to mike johnson, anything else? >> i mean, it just again, speaker johnson is all in on donald trump he's has to also trying to govern refining.
1:43 pm
these governing with what is getting to be a smaller and smaller groups republican, right? because of the marjorie taylor greene's of the >> world keep chasing them out? yes. and that is mike gallagher, congressman who's very deeply respected and bipartisan fashion expert in foreign policy effectively lead in congress this month. but just at the right time time to make sure that his seat cannot be replaced. it's all right. so johnson has an even slimmer majority to make things happen, and we should note that congressman don bacon, who i don't know that i would call him a moderate, but he is certainly saying ease in his from the swing district in nebraska frame the situation for speaker johnson like this quote, he's got got a gun to his head right now, but we need to have a churchill, not a chamberlain right now. he could be on the right side of history. i'm not sure that marjorie taylor greene knows who churchill or chamberlain are, but those are that's a world war ii allusion to standing up to putin in this case. and hitler back then. >> and i do think that is really weighing in on his mind. you've seen pretty strong words, especially when foreign
1:44 pm
leaders have come visited the white house, they have a specific message for speaker johnson. i remember one of the polish leaders who visited with biden last month saying the world is basically hinging on your on your shoulders, the fate of ukraine is on the shoulders of speaker johnson. you saw him have a conversation with president zelenskyy in the last couple of days. it's a matter of how how he does this and how he sort of is able to finesse getting a foreign aid package through this congress with this house republican conference, i was really fascinated with a reminder that one speaker mccarthy put through ukraine assistance and a test vote, if you will, only got 100 or so house republicans, if you figured that's kinda the scene feeling that mike johnson is working with. that's why the threats from the marjorie taylor greene's of the world is really potent for someone like speaker johnson, senator mcconnell, the republican leader is set stepping down from his leadership ship role next year, although he will serve out his full term on monday, he laid and laid out his priorities in a local radio interview. take a listen
1:45 pm
>> and i'm particularly involved in actually fighting back against the isolation as movement in my own party. and so many others. well, and the symbol of that lately is, are we going to help me griner, not and i think it's extremely important that we do that. so i've got this sort of own my mind for the next couple of years is something i'm going to focus on. >> but you heard marjorie taylor greene in salt insults occur johnson by comparing him to mcconnell and nancy pelosi, passive change. >> yeah. everybody has a gun to their head. it's like the end of reservoir dogs site, but like, well, notice this i think in the trump era, it didn't so much change things dramatically, accelerate things that were already happening. i think we saw the isolationists during versus the more neal conservative wing has really been bubbling the last 20 years ever since arac really ended, we saw bubble up for the rand paul and syria in 2013, but i
1:46 pm
think this is the first time where there's been extended long debate on this ad actually even say the isolated. they just, or we can call it that overtook, where a lot of the rest of the party isn't it real way? >> it is. it is part of the pendulum swing that has happened in american history, right? 19, fascism rising on the world stage. we unfortunately do see that donald trump and folks that he has put out on the campaign trail talking about foreign policy going overseas are aligning themselves with the authoritarians of the world. so this is not a battle just for america, democracy when it comes to how much money you send overseas, this is truly about the american experiment and what that means to people around the world. >> and speaking of donald trump, last night, i guess in a reference to president biden declaring transgender day of visibility, which happens on march 31st every year, this year, coincided with easter sunday. a lot of people were upset about it. trump added his take on this. take a listen november 5 is going to be called something else. you
1:47 pm
know, it's gotta be called christian visibility day. when christians turn out and number nobody has ever seen before let's call it christian visibility day. >> really leaning into this christian nationalist thing, right? right. and that's gonna be setting aside the fact checking about when the transgender day of visibility falls. it just happened to fall on easter it's but yes. this is donald trump really leading into religious issues, cultural issues, really trying to rile up that base, base of voters were really excited about for hip come november. >> all right. everyone stick around. i'm going to come back to you in the next hour one week after that horrific bridge collapse in baltimore? and then there's investigating another span and parts of it that could be just as vulnerable to a large cargo ship bringing it down, stay with us here you can expect to find crystal clear audio >> expensive display space and more comfort everyone. >> but we still left >> room for all the unexpected

>> came through that. do internationally, the tragic and stunning collapse of baltimore's key bridge last week immediately raised the question, are there other major bridges in the united states susceptible to this same kind of disaster. a cnn investigation discovered that the answer is sadly yes and as pete muntean reports for us now, at least one of those bridges is very well known to millions along the east coast of the united states >> just 20 miles away from the disaster is ship collision that took down baltimore's key bridge. there are new fears that another iconic maryland bridge may be vulnerable to the same fate parts of its stretching more than 300 feet up. and four miles long between annapolis and can island is the chesapeake bay bridge. multiple experts underscore to cnn that many of the hulking twin span suspension bridges concrete pilings, and aging peers are too exposed two possible

collision that's the symbol of the chesapeake bay captain frank carver showed me the bay bridge at close range, its oldest span now 72 years old, the urgent morning from experts is especially pertinent since this bridge is on the very shipping lane that was being used by the mv dali state figuring show that each year 27 million vehicles drive across the bay bridge as 11 million tons of cargo sale under it >> sometimes we're doing these four times a day, if not, sometimes ten times a day, you know, fished all around it at the vapors. now right now, we're in the center of the shipping lane that leads into the port of baltimore and a cnn analysis found that some of the pilings of this bridge are just as vulnerable to the type of collision that took down the key bridge engineering professor adult l. softy of the university of north florida says, the design could be at risk of collapse if hit by a container ship >> if once a ford goes down, then the whole superstructure

will go down as well and it will pull the other force that's why it's going to have that kind of stuff succeeded. >> the tower peers that support the main spans of the bay bridge have protective fenders, but l softy points out that is where protections and there are none of the barriers known as dolphins use the blunt, the force of an arid chip. >> think that is what we really need to do is to design and protect design better and protect our infrastructure >> the chesapeake bay bridge is operated and maintained by the same agency that oversees the key bridge in a new statement to cnn, the maryland transportation authority says, after the key bridge collapse, it is looking at options with the us coast guard on the feasibility of inquiry priest pure protections for the bay bridge and what's possible in the navigation channel. transportation secretary pete buttigieg said no bridge is designed for a direct hit from a ship. this is >> a unique circumstance. i do
