this is a tough night. we mark one year of our nightmare collectively, right? here at cnn and our family, it s not just tough because what we ve all lived through with covid. the president was right. we need to be the answer for one another, and that is brought home in such painful variety today. yeah, it s a year for all of us. but there s something else today should have been. today would also have been the first birthday for a very special little girl to us, francesca, known forever as beans. that s what they called her. the daughter of our dear friend and colleague, the brain behind the k-file, investigative genius. his wife, rachel, beans smiled bravely in the face of another health monster, a rare form of brain cancer. she fought. they fought. they moved. they did everything. they believed. they loved. inspired all of us. with what they were clear eyed and committed to. she didn t make it. she fought. she died on christmas eve. i remember it. i remember hearing about it

indictments against trump that could come within days, right, georgia and the federal election interference case. so we know originally fani willis requested additional security in georgia around that fulton county courthouse for this couple week period we re entering now. so how concerning is this from a security standpoint? you re talking about what s going on in fulton county and what s going on in washington, d.c. i think it s very concerning. look, we know that president trump has enormous influence over population here in the united states. we saw that on january 6th where people were incited to storm the capitol. over 1,000 people have been arrested by the fbi for those efforts. many of them said they were following what they believed were orders given by the president. and, you know, in the georgia case, we have seen cases where people took showed a lot of bravery and courage to stand up to trump. i think secretary of state brad
