For a second weekend. Is trumpism taking root in canada . And Queen Elizabeth Just Announced a new title for camilla. Were live at Buckingham Palace with all the details. Announcer live from cnn center, this is ccnn newsroom with kim brunhuber. U. S. Officials now believe russian president Vladimir Putin has assembled about 70 of the Military Force he needs to launch a fullscale invasion of ukraine. The latest Satellite Images show Russian Forces Gathering Force in belarus. Ed less than 50 kilometers from ukraines northern border. U. S. Troops have began arriving in poland to help boost natos defenses there. American forces have also been sent to romania and germany. Frances president is heading to moscow on monday to try to discourage further russian aggression. Cnns Melissa Bell Is Standing by live for us in kyiv. Melissa, on one hand, Russian Troops positioned in belarus and u. S. Troops on the move. On the other hand, hope for diplomacy still alive. Whats the latest . Reporter well, look, Vladimir Putin has, according to Elysee Transcripts of his recent phone calls with president macron is that hes the one Research Leader that he can speak to and go into detail dos. There is a certain amount of trust between two men. And the appoint is, about this visit, hell be in moscow tomorrow, here in kyiv on tuesday, is that it is a narrowing window of opportunity, really, that were seeing for diplomacy, generally, because of that Military Buildup that you mentioned. Now, american officials have been briefing both lawmakers and european allies these last few days about their latest assessments. And kim, the point is that it is the most dire yet. In terms of the combined forces that are now amassed on ukraines border. We know that ukrainian officials believe that the point of this is to rattle nato, is to test it, is to divide it, is to challenge it. And that certainly seems to have been accomplished. Nato is definitely paying attention to whats happening here. There has been this different assessment between the United States and ukraine in terms of just how serious the threat is, but weve been seeing these Satellite Images coming through these last 24 hours, kim, from maxar, the independent satellite image provider, showing that just on that border between ukraine and belarus, forces have been moving south. So they are now within 50 kilometers of the border, and they are not just men in weapons, but aircraft as well, at several of those airfields along the border. The point here is that even as the world wonders whether Vladimir Putin has actually made up his mind about whether or not to invade ukraine, the point is that hcan. And what the american officials are briefing is that it would really take a matter of days now, at this stage, given the weaponry, given the manpower that is amassed on the border for russia to make it to kyiv and take the ukrainian capitol. Such an assault would cost the lives, it is estimated by american officials and intelligence assessment, it would cost the lives of Tens Of Thousands of people and create many thousands of refugees, as well. So that is the warning from american officials. Not so much that it is a certainty that this is going to happen, but the very possibility that it might is something that ould certainly have the world paying attention to, and again, that window of opportunity for diplomacy, crucial that Emmanuel Macron is able to make the most of it, kim . The world watches and waits. Melissa bell in kyiv. Thanks so much. Day two of the Winter Olympics is now well underway. Speed skating, ski jumping, and luge among the medal events to come today. Sunday kicked off with an historic gold medal win for new zealand in womens snowboarding. And the Russian Olympic Committee just snagged gold and silver in the mens crosscountry skiathlon, but its not just the athletes making headlines. Controversy is all Casting A Shadow over this years games, including concerns over chinese tennis star peng shuai. Her wellbeing was thrust into the spotlight last year after she accused a top chinese official of sexual assault, and then disappeared from public view. On sunday, the international Olympic Committee confirmed plans to meet with her during the games. This years olympics also comes amid simmering tensions between beijing and the rest, with several countries declaring diplomatic boycotts of the games over what they say are chinas human rights abuses. Were covering all of this here on cnn. Coy wire is standing by in beijing, but first lets go to ivan watson in hong kong. Ivan, lets start with peng shi and the ioc confirming that they do plan on meeting with her. What more do we know. Well, we know that the ioc president , thomas bach, is planning to meet with her, but it is possible we will not hear very much about the content of that meeting. Take a listen to this spokesperson from the ioc. Youll appreciate we wont release details through the media of that meeting, but the meeting will take place. And as the president very eloquently said, we would talk with her and it would be up to her to decide what would and wouldnt be said. Just a brief recap, kim, peng shuai, several months ago, set off a firestorm when she published this very emotional accusation that a former senior Chinese Government official had allegedly sexually assaulted her. And she kind of then disappeared from public view. We saw the very heavyhanded chinese Internet Censors erase that from the chinese skbintern and comments about her from the chinese internet. There were really public appeals of concern from her colleagues in professional tennis as well as from the womens tennis association, and when she finally resurfaced, she recanted. She said that she actually hadnt published those accusations, which has led to concern about how freely shes actually able to speak publicly. And thats part of what the appeals are for thomas bach to meet with her facetoface. Of course, as the ioc president , he has been very concerned about avoiding embarrassing or angering the host country of the Winter Olympics, china. Thank you so much, ivan watson in hong kong. So we want to take a quick look at the medal count so far. Norway still leading the pack with two gold medals. The Russian Olympic Committee jumping ahead to second after their wins on sunday. Slovenia now in third and several countries tied for fourth with one gold medal each. All right. Lets bring back cnns coy wire outside of beijing. So, coy, as i mentioned earlier in the intro, an historic day in snowboarding. Take us through the highlights so far and what youre expecting today. Kim, youre from canada, so i know you know what a party in the snow feels like. I was there at the womens snowboard slope style. My bald brother, i was cold, but there was great energy, good music, huge, incredible course complete with a replica, greatly of china for the athletes to soar over. And that is where 20yearold zoey z zoi sadowskisynnott. Zoi pulled off a highrisk, highflying run and nailed a backtoback double cork 1080s. She became the first woman to ever do that in competition just a few weeks ago. The silver and bronze medalist sprinting out, tackling her, piling on top. An awesome display of sportsmanship. Heres zoi who said she hadnt even been able to connect with her family and friends back home yet, because her phone wasnt working. To win new zealands First Winter Olympic Gold means so much to me and i cant believe that i managed to do it. Yeah, im just so super proud to be kiwi and yeah, hope i made everyone at home proud. Yeah, my data stopped working, so i havent really been on my phone, but i can feel the shock waves from new zealand and it feels pretty special. Reporter all right. It was julia marino snagging silver, and tess cody snagging bronze. Marinos silver is the westport, connecticut, was her first winner. Now to figure skating, where a 15yearold sensation has stolen the show. Camilla becomes the first woman to score more than 90 for a Short Program at an olympics with a score of 91. 8. S she is unreal. One of her teammates say, all of the best qualities of a Figure Skater come together in this fragile girl. Shes graceful and powerful. She lands quad jumps and pulls off these performances that were unthinkable just a few years ago. U. S. Skater says shes not even capable of doing what the russian olympic athletes are doing out there on the ice. Propelling the roc to a first place in the Team Competition with three events remaining. So, incredible to think about what they had the opportunity to do on the ice, kim. Its been said that the russian olympic athletes, the skaters, its more difficult for them to qualify for the olympics than it is to actually win a medal once they get here, theyre that good and theyre fun to watch. Unbelievable. And just a final word, as a fellow bald head, let me give you some advice. The key to staying warm, wear a hat put on a hat hey, ive got my beanie nearby, a hood, im ready to go. And keep the tips coming. You know im going to need them. Coy wire, really appreciate it. Coy wire in beijing, thanks so much.

The u. S. Justice Department Just released graphic new video showing several attacks between police and rioters outside the Capitol Building on january 6th. The video also contains profanitylaced material, so we want to warn you some of this material is violent and disturbing to watch. Cnns annie grair reports from washington. Reporter the department of justice released new videos on friday that show just how shocking and frightening the attack on the u. S. Capitol on january 6th was. Now, as hard as these videos are to watch, theyre important to show, because just friday, the Republican National committee released a statement referring to january 6th as, quote, legitimate political discourse. Now, be warned, but take a look at this video were about to show you just to see how much this day was not political discourse. Take a look. My god im hearing reports that pence caved. Im telling you, if pence caved, were going to drag motherfuckers through the streets. You fucking politicians are beginning to get dragged through the streets. These videos that are newly released from the department of justice are part of their larger investigation where theyve already arrested hundreds of individuals who are affiliated with the january 6th attack. Annie grayer, cnn, washington. Protesters are on the streets across canada this weekend, pushing back against covid restri restrictions. Now, these trucks blocked a major intersection in toronto for a few hours on saturday, in line with what was seen in quebec city, as well. In the capitol, ottawa, where noisy demonstrations shut down the Parliament Area for a week, some protesters showed up on horseback. The protests were started by Truck Drivers opposed to a federal mandate requiring those crossing the border to be vaccinated. A poll conducted last week shows only 28 of canadians support the truckers main demand, while 72 believe truckers either should be vaccinated or have a recent negative covid test before crossing the u. S. canada border. The poll was conducted by maru Public Opinion for city news. Ma rica walsh is a political reporter for the globe and mail. Thank you so much for being here. I have to say at the outset, ive covered all sorts of protests in canada, so we have to issue the disclaimer here that we cant tar all of the protesters were seeing there with the same brush, including this protest which has united some very disparate elements. But looking at that socalled Freedom Convoy, i was struck by the number of elements that reflected what weve seen in similar protests by the protrump right wing, in this country, whether its literally people carrying trump signs, confederate flags, people calling for a january 6thlike overthrow of the canadian government. What do you make of it all . Its certainly been quite surreal, i think, to watch in ottawa, which is usually quite a sleepy town for a g7 capital, kim. Zps and its really a crosssection of people. Lots of families with kids. Lots of people comparing the Vaccine Mandates to the persecution of the jews. We saw trump flags out there today for his yet to be announced 2024 campaign. So it really is a crosssection. And whats making it interesting in terms of canadian politics is how much the Conservative Party, which is to the right of the governing liberals, is tying themselves to this protest, given how disparate it is, given that there are elements that are more risky to be tying yourself to. Well, exactly. As far as i know, no prominent conservative has really dared to criticize the extremism thats been seen there. Nazi symbols, aside. And we heard the Interim Leader of the Conservative Party saying that were that there were, quote, good people on both sides, which obviously echos Donald Trumps infamous comments in the wake of the White Supremacist rally in charlottesville. So what do you make of all of this, you know, a lot of the hyperbole that were hearing from canadian conservative politicians, it wouldnt be out of place on fox news. What does it say abouthe direction that conservative politics there is going . Is it becoming more trpian . Its certainly a big question right now, especially amplified because we actually at the same time this week have started a conservative leadership race. So were having this race to lead the party samt were seeing this really enflamed and heated moment in canadian politics, in canadian society. I will say, though, that the conservatives have disavowed the hateful symbols weve seen at these protests. However, theyre saying that a few bad apples dont make a bad bunch, is essentially what theyre saying. And theyre tying themselves to the broader movement. The question that canada has faced many times now since Trump Took Office in the white house and since the end of his administration is whether or not that populism and that style of politics can take root here. Z and its been the parental question of the last two federal elections, and its now happening again because, as you mentioned, some of the rhetoric that weve seen from trump and some of his allies is now also being echoed here at these protests. At the protest today, there were people chanting, hold the line, theres music saying hold the line, which of course we now have other memories, historic memories of that that are an echo of that trumpian politics. I think what we saw in the last two elections is that theres, an inching growth in the populous movement, in particular of a Splinter Party from conservatives to the right of hair base, but theyve never been atake hold in a meaningful way because they havent won a seat in the house of commons. The question is now, does that change . Are they continuing to grow, because we know that about 30 of cappecanadians who have been followed recently align themselves with these protesters or are sympathetic to the protesters perspective. So what role do you think these protests will play Going Forward . Some have argued that the Freedom Convoy could become the seed of canadas version of the tea party movement, which here eventually led to the transformation, some might say, the destruction of the traditional republican party. Is that possible, or is that giving what were seeing now a bit too much clout . I think thats the open question as to where this goes. Were in a pretty unique and particularly moment, given the pandemic. People are incredibly anger, incredibly frustrated in canada, unlike other countries, including the u. S. , where there are far fewer restrictions, we are just now in some of the biggest provinceser coming out of lockdown, that really angered people, especially because we do have such high levels of vaccination. At the same time, Vaccine Mandates really dictate how much you can participate in society, rather to get on an airplane, get on a plane to go across the country, go to a restaurant in your loaning town, in your own local pub. People are angry. The question is, does the political moment thats come from this anger dissipate with the end of the pandemic or the petering out of the omicron wave . Or is there a political figure who can capitalize on this ground swell and actually turn it into a movement that permanently changes or permanently affects the direction of canadian politics . Yeah, you put your finger on it exactly. It seems like things are changing there in canada. How much, thats the question. Well have to see. Marika walsh, thank you so much for being here with us. Really appreciate it. My pleasure, thank you. Coming up, britains Queen Elizabeth is celebrating her Platinum Jubilee with a major Royal Announcement.

Welcome back to all of you watching us here in the United States, canada, and around the world, im kim brunhuber, this is cnn newsroom. Its an historic weekend for britains Queen Elizabeth as she makes a major Royal Announcement while celebrating her Platinum Jubilee. The 95yearold monarch chose the Landmark Milestone to say its her wish that the duchess of cornwall be known as Queen Camilla when Prince Charles becomes queen. She would have been expected to consult with her direct heirs, charles and william, before making such a major announcement. When the couple married in 2005, they announced that she would be known ass princess consort, despite having a right to the title of queen, that was due to the sensitivity surrounding the title that was once destined for charles first wife, diana. Cnn royal correspondent max foster joins us now from Buckingham Palace in london. Max, take us behind this maybe surprising decision by the q queen. Reporter its something charles has wanted for a along time. He wanted camilla to be known as queen when he becomes king, he wanted her crowned alongside him. Its something somewhat controversial, as you suggested, because camilla is seen as one of the reasons why diana and charles celebrated and there are a huge amount of diana fans out there who just wont accept camilla. So the queen, Queen Elizabeth, is really stepping in here saying, camilla does have her support in being known as quen. Its a reward, perhaps, for years of Loyal Service to the queen, but also a real gesture to Prince Charles future monarchy, saying, im going to support the future shape of the monarchy that youre creating and camilla is definitely part of that. So the queen really using her jubilee day, marking 70 years on the throne, to throw forward to the next monarchy. But again, we are taking stock of that incredible reign, as well. During her reign, Queen Elizabeth has celebrated three landmark jubilees. Silver in 1977, golden in 2002, and her Diamond Jubilee in 2012. This year, having already surpassed the recordbreaking reign of Queen Victoria, elizabeth becomes the first british monarch to mark a Platinum Jubilee. Thats an unprecedented seven decades of service. During her historic reign, shes appointed 14 Prime Ministers and met 12 u. S. President s. I have been privileged to witness some of that history. Reporter shes been a beacon of continue movety through an unprecedented period of change, not least the media revolution. Her greatest achievement, perhaps, has been her ability to remain relevant and popular. Approaching her 96th birthday, for almost everyone living, she is the only british monarch theyve ever known. With no plans to retire, a series of celebrations will take place throughout the year, culminating in a fourday Public Holiday weekend in june. When the public can join the jubileethemed festivities. Expect Blockbuster Pomp and pageantry, Street Parties and parades, a concert with some of the worlds biggest stars slated to attend. Theres going to be some surprises up their sleeve. Really, the palace are aware, just as much as everybody, as this has been a long time coming, no ones really been able to party for quite a long time, so hopefully this will be a big party, covid will be behind us and people can celebrate outdoors and indoors the way they like. Reporter after one of the most tumultuous years in modern royal history, the queen will be hoping to put the focus back on the future of the monarchy. The family have been engulfed by a series of rifts and scandals. But the institution still appears to project strength through its unwavering and revered figurehead. Significantly, we do have to remember that when she came to the throne in 1952, it was really not a very enlightened time in terms of working women. A lot of people thought that a woman wasnt up to the job, despite the fact that Queen Victoria and all the queens before had been great queens on the throne. And she proved them all wrong, and really has proved over and over again that woman can do the job of a constitutional monarch just as well as, if not better than a man. Reporter for the first time this year, elizabeth will be without Prince Phillip at a major royal celebration, the man who was by her side personally and professionally throughout her reign. Prince charles will step in to play a major role, as will camilla, william, and kate. They are the future and will be front zand center alongside the queen. Perhaps well also be looking ahead to the next jubilee, when the queen surpasses Frances Louis the 14th to th become Th Longest Serving Reigning monarch in world history. Prime minister Boris Johnson is up and awake, down the road here. Hes just tweeted, saying today marks a truly historic moment as her majesty, the queen, becomes the first british monarch to celebrate a Platinum Jubilee. I pay tribute to her many years of service and look forward to coming together as a country to celebrate her historic reign in the summer. So the big celebrations will be in the summer. And there has been a very tumultuous period in the just in the royal family but with covid, and the queen rising above all of that chaos, showing continuity, showing, you know, a continuance of life, particularly when Boris Johnson is involved at the moment with so much chaos in british politics. Lots of people asking me, is she affected by all of that chaos . She isnt, frankly. All it does is strengthen her position as a figurehead and keeping the ship steady, kim. So a good day for her, but a very sad day, as well, because shes marking the death of her father, which is why we wont see her, possibly a photo coming out in the next couple of hours, but that will be it. Max foster, thank you for the reporting, really appreciate it. Earlier, we heard from Royals Expert Sally Bidel Smith who is also the author of elizabeth the queen and Prince Charles, so heres what she said about the announcement about camilla. Its a very big deal. The queen is nothing if not wise and shrewd and sensible. And when charles and camilla were married in 2005, his advisers really sort of made a mistake. I can understand why they did it, because there was still a lot of sensitivity about the princess of wales, about diana. So to kind of ease peoples minds, they said that they that when camilla when charles took the throne, that camilla could be expected to be something called a princess consort. There had never been a princess consort. In fact, by law and by tradition, she would become queen in any event, but there was this ambiguity around it and this uncertainty and i think a lot of people were afraid that when charles actually did take the throne, that it could create problems, so the queen, in something that was very unprecedented, made her very strong wish known that camilla should be Queen Camilla, she should be crowned. Royals expert Sally Bedell Smith for joining us there. India has announced two days of National Mourning after the death of legendary Singer Lata Mangeshkar at age 92.

That defies what many economists predicted in the midst of the omicron variant. But the American Public doesnt seem to be taking notice. A gallup poll puts their satisfaction with overall quality of life at just 69 , thats down from 84 back in 20 2020. So many people are living disrupted lives. How stssful was january with kids in school and teachers being sick and all the rest . I mean, its a very challenging time for everyone, with a backdrop of a very negative discourse on many dimensions and the uncertainty. I think people are living through a very stressful time. The new year also saw a number of states enacting pay bumps ranging from pennies to dollars per hour. In new york and seven other states, the increases are parts of scheduled raises in an effort to reach 15 minimum wages in years to come. The hourly minimum wage in los angeles will raise from 15 to 16. 04 on july 1st. Thats one of the highest minimum wages in the country and is more than double the 7. 25 federal minimum. But, is it enough . My next guest is an expert on the effects of minimum wage on Public Health and estimates that californias statewide living wage in 2022 is roughly 21 for an adult with no kids. Professor paul lee is a professor in the department of Public Health sciences at the Uc Davis School of medicine skband joins me now from deavis, california. Lets start with the good news. All of the rises in the minimum wages federally and across some 20plus states. Youve looked extensively into what effects increasing minimum wage has on folks. So for all the people who argued against a minimum wage increase, that it would kill jobs and so on, what would you say to them . Ive done a couple of Literature Reviews and made analysis of more than 50 studies, and there were some very interesting findings. If you increase the minimum wage, you would find that Mental Health among employees increases. Youll find that the absenteeism decreases, smoking decreases, suicide decreases. The incidence of Low Birth Weight among children decreases. Overall, theres considerable Public Health benefits or Health Benefits to employees for raising the minimum wage. And it disproportionately affects women, africanamericans, and latinos, is that right . Thats absolutely the case. It turns out, if you look at the people that are involved people that have minimum wage number of africanamericans, e hispanics, and women. So a lot of people, including myself, are intested in reducing the Wage Disparities across race and gender. This is one way to do it, especially if you want to affect the gender and race disparities among lowwage workers. So these minimum wage increases, some of them have been quite hefty, but you argue, they dont go far enough. Why not . Well, because theres such a thing as a living wage. And a living wage looks at what you would imagine as paying for rent, paying for groceries, paying for utilities and so on. Turns out to be a living wage is considerably higher than a minimum wage. Turns out the m. I. T. Has a living wage calculator. And so we have done some work on looking at the minimum wage calculator with respect to california. And it turns out for one adult with no children, its 21 an hour. So theyre right to make up for that shortfall, but thats not even enough. And the inflation were seeing now, i guess, thats making the discrepancy even worse. Absolutely. I mean, if you look at Gasoline Prices and rent prices, and the price of meat, these things, as your viewers know, are going up quickly. So that the idea of the 15 per hour was made a lot of sense two years ago, these days, i would imagine that 20 an hour would be more in line with something that you could call a living wage. So youll have to explain this, then, because theres the Great Resignation or the big quit, right . People have left their jobs in record numbers. So if inflation is going up. Theres this discrepancy between the living wage and minimum wage. People getting more money as wages are going up, so why are so many people quitting then . Because some people call the great rebellion, because if you look a back over 40 years, youll see that wages for middle and lowwage workers he been stagnant if not falling. At the same time, the wages for higher income people have been increasing and the wages for the people at the very top have been soaring.

If you increase wages, you will decrease quit rates, youll decrease the absenteeism, and this can result in a more productive workforce.

Because if employers are health area, this means that employerprovided Health Insurance premiums for the employer will be less and this would be welcome news by the employer.

Parts of south texas and louisiana are shivering this morning and under freeze and hard freezing warnings. Meteorologist Karen Maginnis has the cold, hard facts for us. What are you watching right now . You might expect that temperatures would be in the 20s across midwestern United States and in the northeast, maybe, but all the way into south texas.
