week. frequent attacks on russian occupied logistic hubs like mariupol and berlien, now there's a mysterious drone attack. russia has blamed it on ukraine. [speaking non-english] >> translator: though i'm more worried not by this, but by efforts to provoke a russian response, that appears to be the aim. they are provoking us to do the same. >> this is the first drone attack by anyone on moscow outside the kremlin. [sound of artillery] >> here, kyiv, attacked for the 17th time this month. putin's generals now know that they face attacks on ukraine's front lines, and at home. >> sam joins me now from eastern ukraine. what is the latest on when ukraine's long anticipated counteroffensive will start? >> anderson, just today, there have been yet more border crossings and artillery
from the city. words the employment status of the officer tonight? >> sergeant greg capers, anderson, remained on paid administrative leave. meanwhile, the mississippi bureau of investigation they've taken the lead on this case. there was body cam footage of this incident. they have that in their possession. but tell me that they are not going to release it until their investigation is complete. incidentally, earlier this evening, the indianola board that talk about that body camera footage. it was held in executive session. no action was taken. but i did talk to the mayor earlier, he told me that he doesn't support the firing of sergeant greg capers because he says he doesn't have all of the facts yet. which include watching the body cam footage for the first time. aderrien though is very clear about what he wants. he wants that officer terminated. the shooting, anderson, has forever changed his life. prior to the shooting, he wanted to be a police officer. he says though now he's scared
a whale that appears more customs to humans than -- much further south then he should be. far from heading back to arctic waters where he might have found some of his own kind, he's headed south, all the way to the coast of sweden, according to the ngo, one whale. where waters are too warm, and too populated for a whale who may have been used to spy. but is now being very carefully watched himself. >> melissa bell joins us now. are there other claims of russian training marine animals? >> there are, anderson. this practice goes back to the cold war. what we saw at the time when russia first annexed crimea, back in 2014, is that they very quickly announced that the combat dolphin program that had been run by ukraine would now be diverted towards the russian navy. we've also seen now some max are images that show just off the invasion, some fresh dolphin pens being placed outside that port at sevastopol. the most important russian port in the black sea. the idea is that was also being done to the arctic north.
it's a practice also with the u.s. navy. these are simply animals that are very good at finding things that are underwater in the seabed. and helping demining operations. what has been happening with this particular whale these last few weeks and months, anderson, is that he's heading south much more quickly. nobody knows if that's because he's looking for a mate, or because, if he is a well trained animal that is used to humans, to simply seeking out more human attention. that could actually prove as his downfall, anderson. >> i feel bad for him. melissa bell. thank you very much. appreciated. former fbi director james comey, speaks out tonight about the republican attacks on the justice department. as well as which of the legal threats he believes is the strongest. later, emmy award winning actor jeremy strong his here for his first television interview since the finale of my favorite tv show, succession. which wrapped up a four season run, sunday.
focused on one thing, avoiding default and cutting this two trillion dollars worth of spending. we're going to get it done tomorrow. >> the reaction to the deal seemed mostly favorable, certainly to moderates for both parties. members of the house freedom caucus are obviously complaining it doesn't do enough cutting. progressive democrats complaining about government assistance programs. is this true? it's a compromise, but you're saying essentially the democrats gave this away. >> listen, i don't want to insult the other half of the negotiation. they were smart people. this was clearly an environmental, though, anderson, where president biden made a major strategic miscalculation, in refusing to negotiate for 97 days. it drifted us really close to the deadline. i think it caused many americans to believe that he was being stubborn and intransigent. i think it really put him, and the negotiators in a weaker position than if they just would've come to the table 100 days ago. as a result, i think republicans got a lot of concessions. frankly, i don't think you can argue, the republicans clearly
opposition from both the far left in the far-right. leadership has been working behind the scenes to sell this deal, to wip this deal. house democrats are expected to huddle tomorrow with members of their party leadership, as well as the white house officials. house republicans are meeting right now behind closed doors. we are told kevin mccarthy, as he entered the meeting, got a standing ovation. people were cheering for him. he said let's have some fun. we are expecting him to make a very forceful pitch for this deal that he worked out with president biden. but despite the opposition from his right flank, he's expecting confidence that it will be able to get it over the finish line. >> president biden calls this a compromise. as you said, progressives are concerned about something. so are conservatives. can you just explain top lines of what's in the bill. >> yes anderson, first and foremost, this will hike the debt ceiling until the beginning of 2025. which means they won't have to deal with this until after the next presidential election. it also impose its limits on future spending. they would keep the levels roughly flat, for non-descent's discretionary spending. then there are other priorities that got into the bill.
floor, that it would automatically trigger a motion to vacate. that would violate an agreement to that kevin mccarthy made in his quest to become speaker. i will tell you that talking to a wide swath of members, there is not a wide appetite to remove mccarthy, at least not yet. and leadership is expecting that they are going to be able to get a majority of their conference on board, which is why kevin mccarthy says this bill is going to pass, and he's going to keep us drop. anderson? >> melanie, thank you very much. joining us right now, south dakota republican congresswoman, dusty johnson, who helped -- describes itself as a group for pragmatic conservatives dedicated to getting things done. that's what it says on the website. congressman, i appreciate you joining us. you've just come from the
of spending. he stopped well short of urging members of congress to vote against this deal. which of course could lead to a default. of course he has the luxury of not being forced to cast a vote on this. but he did talk about spending. one thing he did not talk about tonight, at least so far in the first 30 or 35 minutes of his speech, is anything about donald trump. for the last several days he has been sharpening his criticism of the former president, saying he simply did not get the job done at the border, he did not get the job done in terms of bringing down the deficit. we have not heard anything about that so far tonight. he simply said, leadership is not entertainment. perhaps in veiled reference to the former president. anderson, ththe iowa republicans in the audience here are hungering for an alternative to donald trump. of course, donald trump still has his supporters here. perhaps 30% or so of the republican base. as you can see behind me here,
got more concessions out of this debt ceiling deal than any other deal that has been done. >> congressman, i appreciate your time tonight. thank you. >> thank you. >> congressman johnson, presidential politics now. take a look at church in clive, iowa, just west of des moines. florida governor ron desantis who recently said he would oppose the debt deal if he will still in congress, speaking there right now. his first official stop in the campaign. part of a three state swing which also includes new hampshire, south carolina, and follows what was, as you might have seen a rough and buggy debut on twitter last week, or heard at least. jeff zeleny is traveling with the candidate. joins us now. what was the governor talking about tonight? what was the message? >> anderson, we're finally seeing florida governor ron desantis. you can see, speaking behind me here. wrapping up his first campaign event in person. voters have indeed been waiting for what he has to say. one of those points he made tonight, i'll lower my voice as he speaking there, he was really speaking out against the debt deal. he believes republicans negotiated too much. they gave up too much in terms
the manhattan d a is using these people who spent their lives around trump being nurtured by him, uh, protecting him to make a case against him, and that will be key to find out what they what they've said to him. all right, anderson with me here is they've been throughout the night, ella konig just growth and john miller. at least should michael cohen be on television? talking if he's gonna be testifying. absolutely not. this is the last thing prosecutors want, and it doesn't help that michael cohen's lawyer, lanny davis, is out there doing the same thing. michael cohen is going to be a central witness in this case, every word he says, is fair game for cross examination and one of the points that's going to be made. is that michael cohen has a major, deep, seething hatred for donald trump, and we could see it in that interview. right there. you could list some of the worst words in the world. michael cohen has used them to talk about donald trump. now people say it may say i understand why he feels that way, given what he went through
