Hours in the Oval Office Last night. The gop plan proposing 1 3 of the 1. 9 trillion democrats are looking for. It was a very Good Exchange of views. I wouldnt say we came together on a package tonight. No one expected that in a twohour meeting, but what we did agree to do is to follow up and talk further. The devil of course is in the details. Theres plenty of kidisagreemen in the dollars in the plan. Its unclear how much republicans are willing to go up and biden willing to go down but a Top White House aide suggests not much. Everything here is to help people stop suffering from the pandemic. This will lift 4 million kids out of poverty this year. We are more than willing to keep engaging, but at the end of the day what the president and Vice President wont do is compromise their values or let the American People down. Democratic leaders in the house and senate have taken the first steps towards reconciliation, a Budget Maneuver that would allow the Biden Relief Act to pass with a simple majority. That means holding on to every single democratic vote in the senate. Its not clear if democrats have that. Giving in to republican demands could cost them more votes. The northeast this morning crippled by Record Snowfall and its not over yet. Parts of maine, new york, new hampshire, vermont will all see over a foot of snow today.

What youre noticing down here, the wind. Pictures out of new hampshire, it did look like a blizzard, at least a ground blizzard. You couldnt see 15 feet in front of some of these pictures i was seeing. It was an ugly day. Getting better but not over. Important to keep in mind as we move towards the next few hours.

Members of congress are calling on President Biden to consider invoking the Defense Production Act to provide Higher Quality face coverings to the public. They also recommend using the u. S.

A woman in alabama and her two young daughters clinging to hope after her husband was diagnosed with the u. K. Variant. He went to emergency to support his heart. We went from covid test to learning about a Heart Problem to having surgery to support my heart in less than 24 hours. The variants in the u. S.

By noon today former President Trumps new legal team will file its formal impeachment response. The schedules already in place with the trial set to begin next week. Cnn has learned that trumps bogus claims of Election Fraud are not expected to be a focal point for his attorneys. That doesnt mean they wont come up as we get more on all of this and the Impeachment Strategies at play from manu raju on capitol hill. Reporter good morning, laura and boris. Today is the day we will start to see the arguments laid out for the Impeachment Trial of donald trump that will occur in the senate next week, but today well see those briefs being filed to the senate detailing each side. On the House Democratic side i am told from sources involved in the planning that they plan to detail a Methodical Case Laying Out Donald Trump in their view intentional act to incite the rioters who came to Capitol Hill On January 6th and led to the deadly violence on that day as congress is trying to certify joe bidens electoral victory. Theyre going to talk about how donald trump acted before the election, right after the election and then in that speech to those rally goers on january 6th. Theyre also going to make the case that this is a constitutional proceeding. That is important to them because republicans in the senate have dismissed the idea that this is a constitutional act. That is what you can expect to hear from trumps Defense Team Arguing that this should not be done by the senate in creates a dangerous precedent. How will they deal with the Conspiracy Theories and lies that the former president has said, that the election was stolen, it was rigged, votes were changed. Will they make that case before the United States senate . One republican senator i talked to john cornyn said it would be a disservice, quote, disservice for the president s team to make that case on the senate floor. Will they listen to john cornyn or President Trump as they make the arguments today. Manu raj gu from capitol hill. There was a reason trumps impeach. Lawyer quit earlier this week. Trump balked at the 3 million price tag for trying the case. Trump has been long accused of failing to pay his bills. It seems butch bowers was not willing to take the risk. Trumps entire legal team bailed on him. They did not want to use the voter fraud defense that trump has been insisting on. Still ahead, a personal revelation all too familiar.

Shes describing trauma on top of trauma in the attack on the u. S. Capitol last month. The reason i say this and the reason im getting emotional in this moment is because these folks who tell us to move on, that its not a big deal, that we should forget whats happened or even telling us to apologize, these are the same tactics of abusers, and im a survivor of sexual assault. Ocasiocortez went on to share other terrifying details of january 6th. She recalls hiding in a bathroom when she heard a man banging on doors saying where is she . A man was one of the insurrectionists but it was a police officer. Brian sic anything will lie in honor tonight in the u. S. Capitol rotunda. The same place that was overrun by the maga mob. He died after being injured during the hours long fight for control on the capitol. He will have a ceremonial arrival on the east front followed by a viewing period for members of the Capitol Police overnight. So far there have been no arrests in connection with his death. Law Enforcement Forces say the Capitol Riot Case is the biggest fbi investigation since 9 11. The newest charges are against a man hossa take on a capitol officer was caught on video. Cnns Jessica Schneider has more. Reporter laura and boris, we are learning just how carefully investigators are examining each person who participated in the insurrection and how the video of these rioters are leading to arrests. One of the latest to be charged is ryan steven stancel. Prosecutors are pointing to him as one of the first to breach the barrier. He stormed the barriers which knocked a female officer to the ground and gave her a concussion. Prosecutors saying stancel approached this fallen officer and said, we dont have to hurt you. Why are you standing in our way . Stancel is charged with assaulting an officer. It has been revealed he is out on parole and wanted for assault in new jersey. This comes as cnn has identified at least 21 current and former members of the military who have been charged relating to the riot and at least eight members of the far right group the proud boys.
