hill. i m jim sciutto. the moment of impact, remarkable new video shows a russian fighter jet as it forced down a u.s. drone over, we should note, international waters. all of this played out just south of ukraine. 48 hours ago. video proof russia didn t tell the truth about this. i m going to walk you through what we learned from the new video just ahead. also today, janet yellen with a direct message to americans, your money, your bank deposits are safe. she is set to testify on the hill next hour. this, of course, as bank failures here in the u.s. in an unrelated and ill timed bank issue in europe is spooking so many. so this morning what you need to know. if the banking news feels like a lot, how about a little distraction? how about a little march madness. if your bracket isn t locked in, you are running out of time. but we have the guy to help you make the final decisions later this hour. we begin this hour with the incredibly newly declassified video showing the
trolls, republicans need to stop being so of noxious. and you write about the reasons republicans fared so poorly in the 2022 midterms be on the economy. abortion in the attacks on democracy. could there be more? all of these factors clearly played a role, but don t underweight the impact of formative obnoxious in this that now pervades republican messaging. conservatives have built career paths for young people that start on extremist message boards and lead to jobs and republican campaigns, and then jobs with state and federal offices, then jobs in the conservative media. this pattern of behavior bids fair to repeat itself in 2024. as i write these words, at the beginning of 2023, the conservative world s most excited not by the prospect of big, legislative action from a republican house majority, and not by trump s declared candidacy for president in 2024, or by desantis is yet under crowd won, but by the chance to repeat is 2020 attacks on the personal misconduct of presi
in the nineteen nineties during a visit to nasa, sheila jackson lee demanded to see the flag that astronauts had planted on mars when gently informed that no human being has ever been to mars because it s very far away. lee flew into a rage. she accused nasa of racism and pointed out her membership on the , quote, science committee in congress and so on . we could spend the entire hour on sheila jackson lee stories, and it s tempting. on capitol hill, she s known as the queen and not in a good way. but what s interesting is that nobody ever talks about the congress district that sheila jackson lee supposedly represents. it s mostly inner city houston, and it could use some help. lee s district has a poverty rate almost twice the national average for all the usual markers of civilizational decline, high crime, bad schools, low social cohesion, drugs. now, lee has, quote, served in congress for nearly 30 years. but it s hard to think of a single thing she has ever done
