what a week. with us, we have pulitzer prize winning columnist and associate editor of the washington post, eugene robinson with us. and columnist and associate editor for the washington post, david ignatius, will join us in a moment. joe, just a reminder of why the justice department might be a little concerned about nuclear secrets knocking around mar-a-lago. there was the time that trump spilled highly classified information to russia s foreign minister. or when he tweeted a highly classified satellite photo of an iranian space facility. or when he sided with the kremlin over america s own intelligence agencies. my people came to me, dan coats came to me and some others, they said they think it s russia. i have president putin. he just said it s not russia. i will say this, i don t see any reason why it would be. yeah. so with that in mind, we begin with new information on the fbi s search of donald trump s home in florida. people familiar with the investigation te
even as his legal problems are mounting his hold on the republican party is tightening. i m phil mattingly in washington. pamela brown has the night off, and you are in the cnn newsroom. we begin this hour in ukraine as it wrestles with a terrifying fear of a nuclear disaster. it is now almost six months to the day since russia launched its unprovoked invasion. new video from ukraine s ministry of defense right here says this is a successful strike destroying a rare russian radar complex in south eastern ukraine. ukraine is about to get more u.s. help in its fight against russia. the pentagon saying it ll now send another $775 million in aid. including ammunition for the high promobility artillery ro rockets, howwitzers and other ammunition plus dozens of drones and different vehicles. a lot of the fighting right now is centered in zaporizhzhia, right around the zaporizhzhia nuclear plant. ukraine says russia is launching attacks from there because ukraine wouldn t risk
both the search warrant and the inventory receipt. the wall street journal appears to have already seen both. the paper is reporting the fbi took 11 sets of classified documents from mar-a-lago, including one set of documents marked as tssci documents. that means top secret, sensitive, compartmented information. in other words, some of the most sensitive material the u.s. government says it has. stuff that is only meant to be seen in special government facilities. this would jibe with what multiple outlets have been reporting already, that the d.o.j. was looking for highly classified documents at mar-a-lago and potentially with what the washington post, citing sources familiar, with that knows documents were about nuclear weapons. if so, that would explain the urgency behind the search. nbc has not confirmed the washington post reporting and we have not confirmed the wall street journal reporting but we all could be about to. the warrant and inventory list could be un
my administration will continue to individually monitor violent threats from al-qaeda, no matter where they emanate from. as commander-in-chief, it is my solemn responsibility to make america safe in a dangerous world. the united states did not seek this war against terror, you came to us. we answered with the same principles and resolve that has shaped us for generation upon generation. to protect the innocent, defend liberty, and we keep the light of freedom burning a beacon for the rest of the entire world. this announcement today was rather unexpected, but quite huge in significance. and to understand just how pivotal zawahiri was to al qaeda, it is worth looking at some of his history. he was born into a prominent egyptian family, but in the 1960s, he joined up with the muslim brotherhood, and was eventually arrested as part of a plot to overthrow the government in the early 19 80s. and it is the torture that he experienced in that prison, that fully radicalized the yo
change across the company, including here at cnn. and i m sad that i won t be here to cover it. but since this is our final episode, we re going to do something today. this is a special hour and it s about change. it s about change all across the media world. what s changing? what might change? and what must never change about the accountability function of journalism. i love this show. this small but mighty show punched above its weight for so many years. even a former president commented on the cancellation. reliable sources has been a one of a kind show, and a popular show. this is one of cnn s highest rated weekend shows. so i want to say thank you to all of you watching around the world. i was lucky to be a part of it for nine years. but it began 30 years ago after the gulf war. so here s what the iconic former cnn ceo tom johnson said on facebook when he heard the show was canceled. he said it was founded by ted turner and leaders of cnn who felt deeply that media org
