>> well, jake, these are new images and new video showing the movements of the person who is believed -- the fbi believes placed these two devices outside the rnc and the dnc. it's remarkable that two months after the insurrection, after the attack on the u.s. capitol, they still have very little to go on. but that doesn't mean that they don't have a lot of clues from these videos. for instance, the suspect is seen wearing a nike air max speed turf shoes, yellow, black and gray. you can see in the images, he is wearing -- he or she is wearing a hooded sweatshirt as well as a mask. one of the things that is interesting, jake, is that the fbi says that the devices are believed to have been placed between 7:30 and 8:30 p.m. the night before. as you pointed out, prosecutors, the fbi have said that they believe perhaps these bombs were placed as a way, as a diversionary tactic, as a way to draw law enforcement away from the u.s. capitol as the attack began on january 6th. but the question is, you know, the timer that's used here, it's described as a kitchen timer. that suggests that perhaps these devices should have gone off the night before. and if that had been the case, everything would have changed about january 6th. a lot of questions remain about exactly the relationship between the placement of this device on the night before the january 6th insurrection and the events that happened in the attack on the u.s. capitol. whether the persons are connected or whether this was another group that had nothing to do with those -- with the attacks that was trying to do something else. again, a lot of questions remain from the fbi. the fbi says they have a $100,000 reward for information leading to the arrest of a suspect. >> that's what i want to ask you about, evan. the release of this new video plus the $100,000 reward would suggest possibly that the fbi is really not necessarily any closer to figuring out who this is than they were two months ago. >> reporter: yeah. no, i think that does tell you that they're kind of at a dead end. they spent a lot of time looking at these devices. they have them at the fbi lab in quantico. they've analyzed the makeup of them. the question is, did the th person know what they were doing? from what the fbi is describing, this looks like homemade black powder that was used. why didn't it work? again, using a kitchen timer tells us that this wasn't some kind of sophisticated device that was set to go off on the day of the attack. ag again, if it was placed between 7:30 and 8:30 p.m. the night before, it suggests that this should have gone off on the night before the attack. you can think, if this had gone off on the night before, perhaps the security picture at the capitol would have been far different than what we saw. >> evan perez, thank you. appreciate it. the house of representatives is expected to vote tomorrow on president biden's $1.9 trillion covid relief bill but with zero support expected. only a few defections to pass this bill and get it to the president's desk as phil mattingly now reports for us. >> what hits you the hardest when the pandemic hit? >> reporter: president joe biden stopping by a hardware store to highlight his aid to small businesses devastated by the pandemic. >> 400,000 small businesses went out of business. they couldn't get the help. when we found out that an awful lot of that went to bigger businesses that, in fact, weren't supposed to qualify for this. >> reporter: the house, expected to pass his sweeping $1.9 trillion covid relief plan tomorrow. >> the american rescue plan is transformative. >> reporter: even as all republicans remain opposed. >> the spending of $1.9 trillion spending bill is not focused on covid relief. it's focused on pushing more of the far-left agenda. >> reporter: including democratic priorities like an $86 billion bailout of union pension plans and $5 billion to forgive debt for black, hispanic and indigenous farmers. the white house touting the most significant cash for low and moderate-income americans in decades, the stimulus checks that would provide $5,600 for a typical family of four making $100,000. extensions of emergency unemployment benefits for roughly 11 million americans, unprecedented expansion of the child tax credit which would reach 66 million and is estimated to cut child poverty in half. >> is this a crisis at the border? >> reporter: the white house staring down a different crisis. >> the people who are being let in are unaccompanied children. that is a policy decision, which we made. >> reporter: the surge of child migrants at the border. >> we've been very clear that there is an increase, that there are more children coming across the border than we have facilities for at this point in time. >> reporter: more than 3,400 unaccompanied migrant children in customs and border patrol custody, according to documents reviewed by cnn. biden sent top officials to the border and is expected to receive their report soon but the pressure is growing for solutions, even if the white house refuses to call it a crisis. >> we are challenged at the border. it is a stressful challenge. >> i do agree with the president that it's not a crisis yet. >> we don't need to sit here and put new labels on what we already conveyed is challenging. >> reporter: jake, the biggest question for tens of millions of americans is when will those stimulus payments go out? president biden said by the end of the month. i'm told that timeline is likely to move up a little bit, the irs working on speeding those payments, particularly for those individuals who already have bank accounts on file. two payments have gone out throughout the course of the pandemic. one thing that won't be on those checks, the president's name. jen psaki, the white press secretary, saying it wasn't a priority for the president to have his name on the checks. the president's predecessor, donald trump, put his name on the checks, making clear he thought americans would appreciate his name on a big, fat check. jake? >> phil mattingly, thank you. alyssa slotkin of minnesota, thank you very much. i want to start with new videos from the fbi of the suspect who planted pipe bombs outside the republican national committee and the democratic national committee the night before the insurrection. you're on the house homeland security committee. does it surprise you that the suspect still has not been identified? >> i am a little surprised to see that it took two months two see video. i'm glad we put out the search for whoever this individual is. i think the fact that we're unclear about, you know, were the bombs supposed to go off that night? was it supposed to be a diversionary tactic the next day just highlights the need for a 9/11 style commission, something that really has the time and sort of wherewithal to go through what happened, what led to that day in a bipartisan way. i am surprised it took this long to get that feed out. >> i know a lot of democrats and republicans have been concerned about their security in light of what happened on january 6th. and since then, we've interviewed members of congress who ask that we not even say where they are in the interview because of death threats. have things abated at all? i saw last week there was this concern about march 4th, about what might happen with the qanon conspiracy theory, et cetera. that seemed like it was kind of a dud. has it dialed down at all? >> so, you know, we got a briefing, all house members were eligible to get a briefing yesterday from general honore, the general who did that quick, initial review of what happened on january 6th. a and, you know, the report out on how many sort of threats there are to members of congress, both here in washington and in their districts. i mean, it's up precipitously from a year ago, to the point that the capitol police aren't able to handle all the reports they're getting. most members of congress, i know, are getting additional security at their homes back in the district. people are worried about their security when they're here in congress. particularly after the national guard leaves. i don't think it's abated in any way. and certainly in my own experience, you know, we just had an indictment against someone who has been threatening my team. so, it isn't -- it hasn't gone down for those of us who are members of congress. certainly not. >> that's bad news. okay. thank you about that. i want to ask you about the massive covid relief bill, $1.9 trillion. we know no house republicans are supporting the bill and house democrats, you are all going to need near unity to get this passed. your fellow michigan democrat, rashida talib said last week she might not vote for the bill if the final one, the final version does not include the $15 federal minimum wage increase, and it does not. are you confident that democrats have the votes to pass this? >> i do. i am confident. i mean, i think that we don't tend to put bills on the floor where it's a nail biter of the we tend to know what the votes are. and i know the whip team, folks who are counting all the votes are very busy today. listen, i think in a perfect world, we would have been able to do this in a bipartisan way. that's always, for me, a better way to do things. but we had to act. i think this will provide significant relief to particularly a lot of businesses i'm hearing from. we've been pushing for relief for restaurants for almost a year now and finally we have $25 billion in grant money for restaurants, small businesses. so, you know, it isn't a perfect package. no package ever is. but i think on net, it's a positive to help momentum in recovery. >> all right. democratic congresswoman elissa slotkin of michigan, thanks for your time today. i appreciate it. >> thanks, jake. >> a day after releasing new guidance for vaccinated americans, the cdc is getting major pushback. why, next. two nominees face ing especially tough scrutiny from republicans. critics say they see a pattern. next. smooth driving pays off. saving is easy when you're in good hands. allstate. click or call for a quote today. feeling sluggish or weighed down?

>> yeah. it's funny, jake. we've been doing this a year, right? you and i text back and forth all the time, figuring out our lives in all of this. i'm happy for you. it sounds like this is going to happen. i know your kids have been wanting this to happen and it can now, which is an amazing thing. caveats? 10% of the country is vaccinated, 90% is not. that's the basic thing. your mom is -- she's protected, right? largely protected because these vaccines. it's really more about her obligation to others, if she's traveling to see you, whatever it might be. could she still be a carrier and transmit it to somebody who is vulnerable? perhaps. i think it's very unluikely. as we start to see various data around the world we'll find that the vaccine dramatically not only reduces illness but transmission. >> americans are still be discouraged from traveling but we have learned that the cdc did consider changing that guidance. do you expect that to change going forward? if you're fully vaccinated, you could get tested and if you're not a carrier, why not travel? >> yeah. i think it will change. and i think that it may change, you know, within a couple of weeks even. andy slavitt i was talking to him. he basically said they're tying these recommendations drems directly to the percentage of people who are vaccinated, doing 2 to 2.5 million vaccines a day means another 10% of the country will be vaccinated in the next two weeks. 30% of the country could be vaccinated by the end of this month. i think it will change. the reason they put the travel thing on there had nothing to do in this case with the vaccines as much as they don't want people traveling. one could make the argument that vaccinated people could be safer to travel because they would be less likely to transmit the virus. we talked about this a lot. we haven't seen huge outbreaks related to airline travel. maybe the outbreaks are related to large gatherings after people travel, but right now the airplanes don't seem to be the issue. >> it's significant progress, given that 65 and older is one of the most vulnerable populations. >> yeah. and so we talk about the 10% number of people who have been vaccinated, but we're largely and more so now vaccinating the right people in the sense that people who are most -- this prevents illness. the vaccine should go to people who are at most risk of getting sick. so, you know, i think we showed the numbers earlier. if you're starting to get to 30% of people over 65 who are vaccinated, you keep in mind that they are far more likely to get sick, to be hospitalized than people 5 to 17, for example. 35 times higher. 85 years old are 80 times higher to be hospitalized. you have to vaccinate the right people. in the beginning of this pandemic, about a third of the deaths were occurring in long-term care facilities. those residents have now largely been vaccinated. 75 to 80% have been vaccinated. that makes a difference. you have to vaccinate and vaccinate the right people first. >> it started with operation warp speed under trump and continued in earnest under president biden and the scientists, obviously, get most of the credit. one year ago today, sanjay, we went back and looked, one year ago this week -- today, rather, you began calling this a pandemic even though the world health organization and the cdc were not using that term yet. one year since you accurately labeled this as a pandemic, what do you make of where we stand in the fight against this pandemic now? >> you know, jake, right now, there's positive signs. but this has been a terrible year and it should not feel like normal in any way. people see the numbers on the right side of the screen. we remind people of this every day. at that time acres year ago today, i anticipated that things were going to get bad. that's why we went ahead after looking at it and doing our analysis, we said this is turning into a pandemic. there's that adage, prepare for the worst, hope for the best. even in the worst models, i didn't think it would be what we're seeing now. >> dr. sanjay gupta, thank you. appreciate it. join me and sanjay. we'll have a live cnn special about how to get kids back into the classroom safely. we'll hear from parents, students, teachers, unions about the daily challenges of education during the pandemic. the secretary of education, miguel cardona will be there, the head of the teachers union and sanjay as well. join me, back to school, covid and the fight to reopen only on cnn at 9:00 p.m. friday. the first royal reaction to the harry and meghan interview has come out. it's from the queen herself. that's next. here's another cleaning tip from mr. clean. cleaning tough bathroom and kitchen messes with sprays and wipes can be a struggle. there's an easier way. try mr. clean magic eraser. just wet, squeeze and erase tough messes like bathtub soap scum... and caked-on grease from oven doors. now mr. clean magic eraser comes in disposable sheets. they're perfect for icky messes on stovetops... in microwaves... and all over the house. for an amazing clean, try mr. clean magic eraser, and mr. clean magic eraser sheets. ♪ (car horn) ♪ turn today's dreams into tomorrow's trips... with millions of flexible booking options. all in one place. expedia. in a recent clinical study, patients using salonpas patch reported reductions in pain severity, using less or a lot less oral pain medicines. and improved quality of life. ask your doctor about salonpas. it's good medicine. to be honest...a little dust?
