hurt present binwidth grasses. cnn has reporters all across a story. i'll let gotkine is in london for us with the reaction in israel, the first i want to go to clare sebastian with more on what this means to ukraine and clear those billions of dollars in aid can't come too soon for soldiers on ukraine's front lines yeah kim, i think if palpable sense of relief and ukraine today, even with the understanding that this delay in getting this vote passed has cost ukraine extremely dearly. >> we're hearing, of course, from president zelenskyy this morning, an overnight with it really strong gratitude, unequivocal, praise for his american allies. take a listen we appreciate every manifestation of support for our state and independents are people in our lives which russia wants to bury in ruins america has shown its leadership from the first days of this war well, so i mean, he did also warn that without this aid, the war could expand beyond ukraine, which has been
worse. james baldwin once said if i love you, i have to make you conscious of things you don't see. folks don't often see the impacts that are happening inside our communities. about two years ago, we've got over 350,000 people who are dying prematurely from the burning of fossil fuels. we have more people who are dying from car crashes, dying from air pollution, that are dying from overdoses of drugs, even though that number goes up. we've got more people dying from air pollution than actually dying from gun violence. we know how significant all of those are. so when we would begin to have a better understanding of how we're impacted, how both of our brains and our lungs and our hearts, and the various cancers that are also associated with it and the black maternal health that are impacted by the air pollution, then you'll see the reasons why they are getting engaged, saying that we'll have to do something different and saying that the resources are going there to make sure the policies are there to support and uplift our communities. when you would look at places
appellate court said keep moving forward on the trial, but we'll decide that appeal later. let's pick some jurors. oh, we have 12 and alternates? let's hurry up. why are we hurrying it up? no no other cases when you have very serious issues, this is 34 counts against someone, and we're rushing through in a venue, in a location where most people, 95 percent of these jurors are democrats. so how do we know what their inherent bias is if we don't give them time to be able to have an understanding in the jury selection process of who they are dealing with? you don't have that time when you're being rushed like this judge is doing. will: hey, rebecca, this is -- you know, it was a wild first week. >> yeah. will: it comes away as a clown show and meaning there's just so much going on. a man lit himself on fire out in front of the courthouse yesterday. you had a juror dismissed
worse? and you have berkeley sitwaited in the middle of one of these -- situated in the middle of one of these areas. and i see you're from phoenix, so you've seen it, you have some experience what life is like outside of berkeley, so how does that make you feel at cal? >> yeah are. so i'm here for a wedding, but i promised all of you i'd go to berke -- berkeley, i went there. you can't get much better than cal, and it shouldn't stop anybody from choosing to commit to uc-berkeley. but the reality is that crime is something students learn to deal with during their four years here. it's something that we have to learn to adapt to. i remember the summer before my sophomore year i was living in ab apartment building that received an armed robber one night, and he robbed the two boys living town the hall from me. and -- down the hall. and and from my understanding, walked into my bedroom armed. this is just something that we adapt to. and as a student, we should be
which was rich because it seems like e these students don't really understand how lgbt people are treated in palestine is. but it was shocking to me. it's my first semester as a part-time students at columbia. i knew what i was expecting because i'd prior been a student at nyu, but i really think this post-october 7th creepiness on campus is really reaching a new level and a fever pitch. and i would never have imagined that i would watch nypd officers in literal riots here need to break up hundreds of columbia students who were willfully getting arrested in sport of -- support of palestine and many support of, i think, a cause that they really, clearly don't fully understand. will: i think that's a key point, do they understand. by the way, k.b. cotton who works with fox went to campus and tried to get a little understanding of their understanding. here's how it went. >> reporter: hi. wondering, can we talk to you guys about your demands for the university? >> we have -- do you mind?
largely in my opinion a lot of thatis largely in my opinion a lot of that is happened is because of the courage of young people to stand up and not accept a country where we're told the only solution that we had to keep it safe in their schools is to teach them how to potentially survive a school shooter instead of addressing how that shooter gets the gun of the first place. the shooter and parkland was a criminal but not a mastermind. he was a deranged 19 years old that was able to legally access in ar 15. ., ., , ., able to legally access in ar 15. ., l, able to legally access in ar 15. how hopeful are you that the us can _ 15. how hopeful are you that the us can take _ 15. how hopeful are you that the us can take action - 15. how hopeful are you that the us can take action to - the us can take action to prevent another columbine or another parkland? i prevent another columbine or another parkland?— another parkland? i think sometimes _ another parkland? i think sometimes it _ another parkland? i think sometimes it can - another parkland? i think sometimes it can feel- another parkland? i think| sometimes it can feel like there's a fine line between hope and delusion. with this issue, ultimately it's not hope that drives me it's righteous indignation in the understanding that there is no other high income countries in the world that deals with this level of gun violence for that there's no reason why we should accept this as being a daily reality in our country. whether that's a school shooting or an individual act of gun violence
became concerned. maybe those concerns are a little bit overblown, but my view is it is not that a lawyer will be pro defense or pro- prosecution, with any other facts of the case. except, i have an aversion to having on the jury, someone who has more influence than anyone else. the worry would be is that if the lawyer is not on your side, that is a problem, because it might be the case that other jurors would defer to that lawyer's knowledge and understanding, even if the person is not involved in criminal law. they went to law school, they did substantive criminal law, criminal procedure, and it may be the case that now you have two, it may means they may balance each other out and no particular lawyer on the jury would predominate, but i don't love it, i don't know that you don't love it, either, probably. >> i am on the fence but i get your point it is not zero, maybe. it just depends on who has the bigger personality. let's talk about opening statements. we are all looking forward to see what happens on monday. my question to you is very
around to basically ratifying what the senate did months ago back in february by seven, eight to 29 vote in the senate in terms of the consequences that you just touched on, you've also been quite vocal about the war in gaza, saying the death toll is way too high in terms of this new aid for israel, would you have wanted to see more conditions attached? >> yes. i believe that none of the aid provided in today's vote should be used for any offensive operations at gaza until the hostages are released. massive humanitarian aid flows into gaza and an understanding about what, if any, operations would be commenced with respect to rafah we have a humanitarian crisis of unprecedented proportions that has to be addressed first
and my understanding is there, there are very few conditions in this. is that right that's right those conditions are going to have to be negotiated between the biden biden white house and state department and the israeli government. and the administration. it has repeatedly said that they will likely not condition that aid congressman, you told our colleague manu raju earlier today, the democrats should not save congressman mike johnson as speaker. how do you see his fate after today's votes? >> i feel the same a lot of my colleagues in the democratic caucus feel that somehow we're beholden to speaker mike johnson because of today's vote, a vote that could have taken place months ago and should have my view is different. my view is finally speaker johnson did what a speaker supposed to do, which is allow legislation to come to the floor and let the will of
politics here. speaker johnson put his job on line to bring the measures but he couldn't have done it without democrat support. so did the democrats have to make concessions to get the speaker to advance the foreign aid bills? >> you know, i think the need for the republican conference to have democratic votes in the rules committee comes from the poor decisions that kevin mccarthy made as he was advancing his own self interest and doing whatever it took for his very short tenure as speaker. he put people on the rules committee who were not serious people. people who didn't want to govern but wanted to campaign. i think when it came to hakeem jeffries, i think it is an understanding in the democratic caucus that these are critically important, critically historic times for our nation in the world and we need to act in the best interest of the american public. >> let me ask you quickly. will you vote to save speaker's
