A single corrupt Computer File brought all of americas air traffic to a complete halt. How did it get there . And more republicans call for resume faker George Santos to quit congress but not the republican with the power to push him out. Welcome to our viewers in the United States and around the world. Im christine romans. Good morning. We begin with a second batch of classified documents found by President Bidens legal team. They found the first batch from mr. Bidens time as Vice President set off the search for this new discovery. Its unclear how many documents were in the second batch, where they were found or what theyre even about. Cnns Phil Mattingly has more from the white house. Reporter as President Biden and the White House Counsels Office described the initial discovery of ten classified documents, documents that were turned over to the National Archives and the Justice Department, Justice Department review ongoing, they never actually weighed in on whether there could be additional documents out there. As that was happening, there was actually a very quiet but very intensive review ongoing by the president s legal team to see if there were any. In fact, there are. A second set of government records has been discovered. Some of the government records, they are, indeed, classified. The president and his team never said there werent any other documents out there. They only spoke about the initial set of ten classified documents. To some extent they have been very careful not to say anything about what may be out there. There are no assurances you can provide at this point that there are no other classified documents out there at any other office . Again, this is an ongoing process so im going to let the process continue. It is being reviewed by the Department Of Justice and im just going to leave it there. Reporter that answer was one that the White House Press secretary repeated over and over to just about every question underscoring the limitations the white house feels they are under as the Justice Department continues this review. What happens next or if there are anymore documents out there is still an open question. So, too, is what the actual documents, the second set of documents actually included. There are sparse details about where they were found, what was inside of them. It certainly exacerbates a situation that has been pol politically perilous. They have called on the Justice Department to appoint a Special Counsel to look into the matter drawing clear parallels even though the situations are quite different to former President Donald Trump and his classified issues, his legal problems. How this actually ends Going Forward has very much remained an open question. The white house has said they are fully cooperating. That isnt going to change according to white house officials. A second set of records complicates a problem that had been growing in the hours before it was eventually reviewed. Phil mattingly, cnn, the white house. Phil, thanks for that. House republicans passing a bill that requires doctors to try to preserve the life of a baby born alive during an attempted abortion. The bill is passed.

Reporter the bank reports dont necessarily indicate wrongdoing. Financial institutions file millions annually. White house spokesman dismissed the gop moves as political moves in an effort to get attention on fox news.

If were having consistent problems across parties with exiting Government Officials not putting those classified documents where they belong, then i think thats something we should take up. Oversight isnt about partisanship, its about making sure protocols, procedures, rules, laws that keep us all safe are being followed. President bidens legal team has found another batch of classified documents. This follows the discovery of the initial batch of records at his former think tank office. Its unclear how many documents were found in this second batch or what they were, what theyre about. Lets bring in Dave Aaronburg who is the State Attorney in palm beach county, florida. Nice to see you. Thanks for getting up to us. This plays into trump loyalists double standard. Compare for me, Trump Documents biden documents. Good morning, christine. Yeah, from a prosecutors perspective this is exactly like the trump situation at maralago except for just about everything. Theres no allegation here that biden personally handled the documents or claimed them for himself or refused to give them back or obstructed attempts by the feds to retrieve them. To the contrary, bidens attorneys notified the archives, which is how the archives found out about all of this, and gave everything back. Also theres a difference in the volume of documents. The Trump Documents were so much greater in number than the biden documents, and be so comparing the two situations to me is a false equivalency. If trump had just returned the documents, there would be no criminal investigation, potential indictment of him and in this case trump refused to cooperate. Biden is cooperating fully. Thats what led in the trump case to the subpoena and forced the Department Of Justice to obtain the Search Warrant and here we are today. Months of back and forth trying to resolve that between the trump team and those documents and we know that the biden team is now scouring looking for documents turning them in right away. Does this change how trump or whether trump is charged or not charged in his case. I dont think it should. I think that this definitely will help trump in the maga court of public opinion. You know, when trump gets indicted i think its more of a when than an if and biden doesnt, hell claim disparate treatment and this will become trumps number one grievance. This will help him rally his loyal base, but it should not impact the Department Of Justices decision on charging trump in the maralago documents. Actually, christine, theres one way to look at it. If it does impact t it could make it a bit more likely that the department of Justice Charges trump for obstruction. It gets you up to 20 years in prison. That charge would show the public why the trump situation is unique and perhaps justifies the unprecedented move of being the first prosecutor in the history of our country to indict a former president. Ironically this could come back to bite trump. Dave aaronberg, thank you so much. Thanks for having me. Police are increasingly focused on the husband of the missing massachusetts mother. Brian walshe is charged with misleading investigators about her disappearance. Were learning more about his troubled past. Heres cnns brian todd. Reporter in Court Documents just obtained by cnn, relatives and acquaintances of brian walshe, the husband of ana walshe, refer to brian as, quote, a sociopath and not a, quote, trustworthy person. His father died in 2018. One of his adversaries wrote that brian walshe was a, quote, very angry and violent person. Cnn reached out to former and current attorneys for walshe but has not gotten any response. Any prior acts of bad acts will be curious. And this is circumstantial evidence regarding ana walsh. What theyre trying to prove here is difficult. Reporter neither a body or body parts has been discovered. Other grisly evidence has. The latest evidence investigators are analyzing includes a hacksaw, torn up cloth and what appear to be blood stants recovered from a Garbage Transfer Station North of boston. Earlier prosecutors said a bloodied broken knife and bloodstains were found in the search of the familys basement. Tracking this guy is like tracking a Bleeding Elephant in the snow. Hes leaving tools, clues, signs everywhere. Reporter including, Law Enforcement sources say, internet searches in the days following his wifes disappearance of how to dispose of a 115 pound womans body, how to dismember a body. When your wife is missing, when thats what youre searching for, its just too much to explain away in my opinion. Reporter Law Enforcement sources tell cnn investigators now hope to collect Blood Samples from the walshes sons and they want to compare the dna from the trash piles and in the basement. By getting the dna, they could establish a direct scientific Bloodline Dna Link saying the contributor of the blood on one or both ends of that scenario is the mother of those children. That would get them to much closer to a place of probable cause to brianne indictment. Then there are brian walshes inconsistent accounts. Hes been charged with misleading investigators about his and his wifes whereabouts on january 1st and he didnt report his wife missing until january 4th. During a time frame when he didnt report his wife, he gave various statements that allowed him time to clean up evidence, dispose of evidence. Reporter Court Documents say brian walshe was under Home Confinement during a separate case, made unapproved trips including to a home depot where he was seen wearing a surgical mask and gloves. He spent about 450 there on cleaning supplies including mops, a bucket, and tarps. Walshe has pleaded not guilty to misleading investigators. His attorneys have not commented.

It doesnt lead up to assigning the head of the joint chiefs. The question of why is raising eyebrows. It might have something to do with the rise of wagner which is making a lot of waves in the battle for soledar. They might want to be reinforcing authority. There are a lot of concerns in ukraine that russia is preparing for a renewed offensive in the spring. This seems to point to that, that they might want this fresh pair of hands to spearhead that offensive. We know theyve held back about half of the new recruits that are still in training. That might be more evidence of that as well, christine. Claire, youll keep following it for us. Thank you so much. New Satellite Images of chinese cities capture overcrowding at Funeral Homes and crematoriums suggest the scale is horrific. The countrys official death toll remains extremely low. Cnns celina wang has more from beijing. Reporter Covid Lockdowns may be over in china, but for many theres misery at the end of zero covid. The virus is overwhelming hospitals across the country. The sick struggle to get help. Patients crammed into every available space, every hallway and corner of this northern chinese hospital. Not everyone survives the struggle. Rows of bodies fill this Funeral Home Storage Room though we dont know how many died of covid. In jiang suh, families flood the gate and in sits juan, families line up aside coffins. China has only reported a few Dozen Covid Deaths since reopening but Satellite Images confirm a different reality. These images taken in late december and early january show crowds and long lines of cars waiting outside of Funeral Homes in six chinese cities. The images from the outskirts of beijing show a brandnew parking lot was even constructed. We visited that funeral home. Rows of cars were already there. Im now standing in that new parking lot of this beijing funeral home. This entire Parking Lot Area did not exist a month ago and as you can see, the roads are not paved. One van pulls in, Unloads A Body and another follows. A man tells me he waited hours for his brothers body to be Crea Creamated but the wait is nothing compared to a few weeks ago. The Covid Outbreak has peaked. We find these bodies piling up in metal crates at another crematorium. This video was filmed by a man who said his fathers body was laying here for days. He said his father waited for hours for hospital bed space. By the time a bed opened up, it was too late. Cities are now scrambling to set up Fever Clinics and increase icu capacity. For weeks it was nearly impossible to buy cold or fever medicine. We were all sold out because of the huge demand. Reporter Drug Companies like this major Pharmaceutical Manufacturer in beijing are going into overdrive to produce it. I asked the Vice President if he had received any advance warning from the government that they were going to abandon zero covid so they could prepare to ramp up production. He didnt directly answer my question, but its clear now they are doubling down. The company told us they simply follow government policy. The drug shortage, overflowing hospitals and crematoriums, theyre evidence of a country unprepared for a sudden end to zero covid.

I think it has. We are there are High Expectations if were going to get a much better number and continue this trend of decelerating Inflation Pressures, but were a long way from where we need to be. Inflations run 7 over the last year. The goal is 2 . By the way, a year ago at this time inflation was around 7 . Weve only made progress from a peak of 9. We have a long way to get to 2. What investors are looking for is a continuation of this trend. Less Inflation Pressure and more broadbased improvement. Stocks have rebounded to start this year after an awful year last year for stocks and bonds. Is there a risk here that theyre underestimating the Inflation Story again . You make the point we are 5 Percentage Points away from where we need to be. Yeah. Theres certainly a lot of expectations for a good number baked into particularly the rally weve seen this week and the recurring theme we keep seeing in markets, christine, is the idea investors are of the belief the fed is going to wimp out and theyre going to stop raising rates much sooner than the fed has said theyre going to do so. You have the tug of war and markets go up on the belief, then the fed throws cold water on it and the fed goes back. Weve seen it play out and its one of those here we go again. Ive heard it call the pivot party. Wall Street Investors cant wait for the pivot party. So far we havent heard the fed pivot, right . Not at all. Theyve said quite the opposite. The mantra thats coming from the fed is were going to continue to raise Interest Rates and even once we stop, were going to keep them there for a while. We want to make sure that inflation is going to go down and stay down. Now does anything in there sound like, oh, yeah, were going to be in a hurry to cut rates . Not to me. Thats why youve had this continued tug of war between the fed and investors because the fed has a little bit of a Credibility Problem when it comes to inflation. Lets talk about layoffs. Two things are true at the same time. Blackrock, goldman sacks, and wells fargo is going to shrink the mortgage business. There are 10 million open jobs. You hear from companies outside of finance, tech, media. Outside of those sectors theyre saying we want to retain workers. How can all of this be true at the same time . We have a 21 trillion economy. A lot of moving parts. The label market is very, very resilient. There are a lot of businesses with a lot of open jobs. When you look at businesses more cyclical in nature, more closely tied to the economy, Financial Services is at the top of the list. Stock market as you noted a moment ago was down almost 20 last year. If you are a Mortgage Lender or asset manager, you get 20 less money coming in the door. I think what youre seeing there is kind of a harbinger of what were seeing likely to see as the economy continues to slow further and particularly if two out of three economists continue to be correct. Before i continue to go, you work for bank rate. What should consumers expect for consumer Interest Rates this year . Credit cards, car loans, home loans . Credit cards, home equity lines, even car loans are going to continue to go up particularly in the first half of the year. Even then theyre not likely to pull back. Mortgage rates tend to lead the fed. Were still going to end the year a good bit higher than where we were a year ago. Thank you, greg. Thank you, christine.
