now so far, we haven t really seen this huge assault happening. it sort of started with a whimper rather than a bang, but bang it has. we ve been seeing air strikes all over the eastern part of this country. what we haven t seen yet is a ground incursion, and that is probably going to happen very, very soon. it looks as though putin and his generals are giving some time to try to reconstitute their military. how much time we don t really know. that s the question because the clock is ticking. can call of these weapons make it from the u.s. to here or from elsewhere in europe to ukraine and all the way across the country to the front line? that s going to be the big question because there are troops ready to use this. when we hear from president zelenskyy that it s not enough, we also have to remember it s not enough in you know, not enough time. it s a logistical nightmare getting this across the country that s one of things that president zelenskyy is going to be worried about.
tanks at the air base. that is something that all of these it s very symptomatic let s say of all the things that can happen as part of this stage of the invasion process. now, as far as what will happen next, what i would expect them to do is to go in and try to hit as many of the basic bridge links that you have right through here. what that does is it cuts communication off. and what they ll also do is they ll try to perhaps couple that with cyber attacks on specific ukrainian entities. they ve done some of that already, but we haven t seen too much of that, at least not as much we expected. other things they could do is potentially hit something like the ukrainian parliament. and if that s the case, then of course that effects the civil government and is symbolic target in that sense. we were talking earlier about how the initial explosions earlier is often a precursor to something more happening. but here we are. it s early morning there in kyiv. still no full on assault happe
and back to our breaking news. the u.s. issued a new warning to ukraine that a full-scale invasion by russia is imminent. i want to get straight to the white house where cnn s chief white house correspondent kaitlan collins is. kaitlan, we have been hearing some version of an invasion is coming in days and hours, now imminent. how is this different? reporter: i do think you re seeing officials on higher alert here at the white house today monitoring the latest intelligence they ve seen, what the ukrainians are hearing about the likelihood of this full assault happening. that would follow president biden saying he believed the launch of the invasion has begun and we are in that phase. what we have not seen is what secretary blinken and other officials is the worst case scenario where there is a full-scale assault, what that would look like in detail. officials caused they don t know
exchanging a democrat for another democrat. i think there is some concern from especially conservatives does she actually mean that? will she be neutral. let me be very clear, i want to be very concise, no, she will not, ainsley. you look at her record. she is soft on crime. democratic cities have been tormented by criminals. there are soft prosecutors in democratic cities. ainsley, we do not need a soft on crime supreme court justice. she is a danger if you believe in the rule of law. it s a victory for criminal defendants. if this woman gets elected as or confirmed as a supreme court justice. ainsley: leo, always good to see you. thanks for coming on thoroughly. thank you, ainsley glad ainsley: thank you. hand it over to carley for more headlines. carley: i certainly do. a 9-year-old girl is sucker punched in new york city in a random attack over the weekend. assault happening in a violent
was aware this assault had happened within two months of the assault happening. yet, they allow third down process to go on for two years. i mean, florida state has completely failed in this, and i think t the new york times did an excellent piece on this that showed conclusively how florida state has failed. you ve heard there has been criticism of the film from different corners and attorneys. did any of that surprise you? no. you know, there hasn t been that much criticism. i think i want to say most schools have not been critical of this. the fact that so many schools have actually used this as a way of opening up discussion on their campuses, sometimes it s faculty or students or sometimes administrators. the vast majority of the schools have not been critical of this. they know this is a problem, and i think, you know, the fact that this school is compelling them to change in some ways, they wanted to do this themselves.
