new york, massachusetts, it's been running through the fourth of july. the in the water makes it hard for sharks to discern between a tasty fish and a human being. >> i don't like that. jeff, i also want to get to this physio that you sent us of a well being caught in fishing gear and tell us how dangerous obviously this is for the well but also for the people trying to rescue the well. >> this is a horrible situation that we're in right now. this is a north atlantic white whale. alison, we were discussing this recently, and because of our conversation, i've really delved into the situation. it's really catastrophic, 340 remaining north atlantic white whales. they're getting hit by container ships and other vessels when they navigate from florida up north. the climate change is affecting
the fisheries and the north, but they are getting entangled in fishing gear. here, we see crews from noah, the center for coastal studies, which our experts echoing in, like we see here, this is dangerous work. these folks with the center for coastal studies and with the international fund for animal welfare, they're doing whatever they can to save the species. alison, they only produced 11 surviving offspring this year. that means this uniquely new england ambassador whale species will become extinct at this rate within the next few years. every well-matters, which is what we have groups like ccs and i far and noah out there trying to save the whales. >> thanks for alerting us to this desperate situation. jeff, always great to talk to you, thanks so much. >> my pleasure, thank you. >> monday and tuesday were the
wildlife nation, jeff portman. jeff, good to see you, as always. why are there so many architects in the new york area? >> well, it's summertime. it's summertime, means people are loving the beaches, surfing and swimming, and so are the sharks. alison, if you know anyone like me, chances are you're on the water with your fishing rod looking for puppies to catch the strippers and tunis, looking for the macro, well so our sharks. all the bay is in at the scene if of life along our coastlines in new england, new york and connecticut. sharks are there, people are there. the good news though is if there is good news, these are probably very small sharks, maybe like sand tiger shots, certainly not great whites, a large predatory shark like that will be more than getting bit on the hand and foot, it'd be quite a serious injury. >> but i don't wanna be bit on the hand or foot either by a smaller shark, but did you see,
about this ruling. what do we need to know here? >> yes, alison, so this is a deeply flawed -- the common sense macro view that the judge is going to prohibit large swath of the government from having any content who has social media companies, when things so show up on social media that are, threatening national security, but an individual's personal safety is ridiculous. but as a legal matter you have no standing here, you have a misunderstanding on the part of the judge, you have a vastly -- brought injunction issue on so many levels this opinion was improper, i think doj's basement to, appeal it i think that they will win that appeal, and i'm sure that the panelist we'll talk more about how outrageous the notion of this, isn't a more general sense, but legally this is very problematic. >> matt, here isthe judge said, locking the biden
defensive positions, that means that he is hurting. we have seen all along that even though the defensive battle is going to be very tough for ukraine, they've succeeded. they have regained territory, and russia started this war with 200,000 soldiers going into ukraine. now they're saying that we have 150,000 in the donbas. ukraine did very well at the beginning against a much larger force, spread out over much larger territory. i do have high hopes for what the ukrainians are going to do. it will take time, it will certainly take time. there will be a lot of casualties, but this is the tough cycle. >> general hertling, steve hall, thank you very much. >> thanks, alison. >> back, here think twice before setting off fireworks. this force of july, responsible for at least six wildfires in washington state this weekend. that story, next.
wagner's moving deep into russia and taking certain regions, showing how easy it is to do. putin doesn't control the situation in the regions. he doesn't control the security situation. all of us understand that his whole army is in ukraine. almost entire army is there. that's why it's so easy for the wagner troops to march through russia, -- >> steve, is that true? let putin does not control some territories? >> alison, let's start with the fact that it's extremely difficult to determine what was precisely going on inside of the kremlin. the reason that i say that is because the first question that pops up, and what salons he was trying to get at, how could this have happened? i think that he's saying a lot of things that are correct. i think that it is the case that there are so many russian focuses, so many russian troops in ukraine right now. to include his internal security services like the fsb, the primary responsibility in
the past has been to project the regime. these focuses have now apparently shifted into ukraine, which of course has indeed -- i think zelenskyy is right, make some parts of russia less secure than they were before. i think that he's right. there are a lot of people saying that we should be careful when we talk about putin being weak. nevertheless, there are some facts on the ground. one of those is that a mutinous group of russian military guys, the wagner group, almost made it to a mosque, out to the gates of moscow under putin's watch. i think just a couple of weeks ago, many of us would've said that is virtually unthinkable. that cannot happen. zelenskyy is right, he's not as strong inside of russia as he was before this happened. >> what do you think, general? >> i think the same thing. steve is exactly right. remember, alison, we haven't just seen the puck grosjean troops, the wagner group heading back into russia and
election. >> kristen osborne, and constitutional law a source tells cnn that trump professor at john j college of called than governor dog ducey criminal justice, gloria brown marshall. i don't know, jay, should ducey to pressure him to find fraud in the states results that could switch the outcome. sources tell cnn that then vice not have mentioned this pressure campaign a little sooner than. president pence also called now >> he's between a rock and ducey several times but did not a hard place. you would love to move on so put pressure on the governor's. that he doesn't have to get any negatives from all the people cnn national correspondent kristen holmes has the latest that are still election deniers. but i am struck by somebody details. kristen, what do we know about unlikely heroes in some of the this phone call? >> alison, before we get to stories. people who i may disagree with pence's response to this call, strongly, ideologically, i i do want to get a bit of context around these calls. would never think i would be praising liz cheney or chris we did know at the time the former president donald trump christie or people like that. and then governor of arizona >> mike pence. >> and mike pence but these are people that are standing up dog ducey did speak. against someone who they kind of agree with. we just know the context. maybe not on the election, i learned over the weekend that again, but politically they want the republicans to succeed, ducey has told people behind closed doors that it was a and yet they are taking pressure campaign from the former president to try and courageous stands. rather the political football find widespread fraud to of who met with whom and whatever i'm struck by the overturn the results of the 2020 election the state of public ethics of this moment, arizona. as you will remember, trump was that there are people standing losing by a small margin. up. >> i wouldn't be to strike. about 11,000 votes. i mean, first of all, are we we also learned that pence made
we hear that 180,000 russian troops moving into these eastern fronts. what does that mean for the ukrainian counteroffensive? but >> it is not that they're moving in, alison, it's that ukrainian commander suggested that he had estimated there were at 150,000 troops in the eastern part of the country. there are military reasons for that, tactical operational reasons for that. i believe that what the russians are doing, is try to shore up the central part because mr. putin cannot afford to lose the donbas. that was the first area that he attacked in 2014. there have been some gains by the ukrainian forces, but in gained back territory in the east. in the donbas region. ukraine also wants to liberate kherson and zaporizhzhia provinces in the southeast. by the russians moving more and more forces into the east, ukraine has to stay there to defend against that. they cannot reinforce some of
