dollars later, john durham issues his report. was it everything trump promised it would be? and a florida teacher under investigation for playing a disney movie that happens to include a gay character. chasten buttigieg, the former teacher and husband of pete buttigieg, is my guest tonight. let s go outfront. and good evening, i m erin burnett. outfront tonight, russia s worst day of the war, in fact, it was the worst day for putin and his prized air force in more than 50 years. so here s what happened. ukraine s antiaircraft missiles systems took four down four of putin s fighter jets and helicopters. it reportedly does not appear that the crew of the four aircraft had time to eject. now, the worst day in more than 50 years for putin s air force, ukraine has stopped short for taking responsibility of the attack, only saying tonight that the aircraft ran into some trouble. now, these attacks could be a precursor to the counteroffensive. just today two, more strikes in l
surge. fewer and fewer asylum seekers are trying to cross in, but the officials warn that it may not last. what is maybe a telling setback for russia with four military aircraft down over russian territory, and what it is saying about the ukrainian capabilities. a florida teacher is showing a disney movie to her students, and now she is under investigation by the state. these stories and more are coming into cnn news central. the intense surge of migrants at the u.s./mexican border at the end of the covid era title 42 has not happened. the secretary of homeland security warned of the surge, but the surge was in the days before title 42 ended when the crossings were topping 10,000 a day, and now just over 4,000. what has not slowed down is the bitter politics surrounding immigration. the texas governor did it again, sending migrants to be dropped off out of vice president s kamala harris s home. we go to pablo sandoval who is live outside of the vice president presiden
let s get right to the just released report by the special counsel john durham in its conclusions about the trump/russia investigation. cnn s senior justice correspondent evan perez has been going over the roughly 300-page report. evan, give us the top lines. reporter: well, wolf, this report contains a lot of harsh criticism for the fbi, especially former fbi leadership that oversaw the trump/russia investigation. in the end john durham spent four years in this investigation. this is a 300-page report. he concludes that while the fbi had reason to launch, perhaps, an assessment or a preliminary investigation, much lower-level investigations, he believes that there was a lot of exculpatory evidence that the fbi was ignoring and that they should not have launched, essentially, a full-blown investigation. i ll read you just a part of what he concludes as part of this report. he says that the fbi discounted or willfully ignored material information that did not support the nar

way they lay out in the court document there. the parents were on notice that violence might have been coming. so i think there s probably the cleanest case against the parents of all the different defendants here. is this a new approach to make this onerous to the gun manufacturer, the body armor supplier. two paren to parents, to soci media sites saying you have to think about your place in mass violence or you ll have to pay the costs. it s not just by virtue of being a body armor manufacturer, it s that you were on notice in this case because of words that we believe were said to you at the time the individual tried to buy it. they make the argument for each one saying i m going to modify this gun or i m going to go shoot people so, therefore, you should be held accountable for that. not just because you re a gun manufacturer by itself. elliot, thank you. jim. the supreme court is
