on their way to texas right now. we're following both visits and the fact about what is actually going on incident on the ground in gaza, more than 100 people were killed, nearly 800 injured, while they were desperately trying to get aid. we're breaking down what happened and how this could either propel or derail talks that are ongoing right now to release hostages implemented temporary ceasefire, and a medical marvel, an als patient has a brain implant that translates his thoughts to computer commands dr. sanjay gupta has more on the technology that's giving hope to people with neurodegenerativ e diseases. we're following these major developing stories and many more all coming in, right? here to cnn news central >> today one of the most hot button issues in american politics could become even more highly charged. we're talking about immigration. this afternoon. president biden and former president trump are both visiting the border, delivering their contrasting messages in the face of a migrant surge we may see donald trump arriving at any moment and later this hour we could hear directly from the president looking to salvage his sinking approval numbers when it comes to handling immigration. our kristen holmes and priscilla alvarez or both on the ground there. first, let's go to priscilla she's in brownsville, texas ahead of president biden's arrival. so priscilla why is the president going to brownsville specifically and why is he going now >> boris, we just heard from homeland security secretary alejandro mayorkas, who told reporters at the reason that he's going down is to highlight congressional inaction on the issue of border security, especially he focusing on that senate border bill that was worked on within an negotiators and white house officials and included some of the toughest border security measures and recent memories. but republicans ended up backing away from that deal at the encouragement of former president donald trump. so that is what the focus is today. but this is still a dramatic shift for a white house that for for years has distanced itself on this issue. it was one that dog good administration as it handled multiple surges along the us-mexico border and the sources told me whenever this issue came up within the white house, it was a tense discussion, especially as it became a political vulnerability for president biden. but what we're seeing today is a president who is trying to flip the script on her republicans when it comes to this issue because now the white house says he can point to this senate border bill and the fact that republicans didn't want to move forward on it and point and make the connection that that deal would have provided some solutions to what is happening on the us mexico border. so that is what the remarks president will provide today are going to be focused on all of this, of course, at a critical time, we're in a presidential election year. and this is an issue that former president donald trump is going after president biden on. so this is an opportunity for the president to essentially provide a different perspective here and put the onus on republicans, but also as he to consider there's executive action on the us-mexico border on that front, boris, i will say that we heard again from the homeland security secretary, is that there's no executive action that will be in downs during this trip. the remarks very much focused on republicans and what they should be doing and priscilla, do we know if president biden is actually going to be meeting with any migrants >> we don't have a clear answer to that as of now, the plan is for the president to meet with border patrol agents frontline personnel, and local leaders. i will tell you, boris, this is not one of the busiest sector as it ranks fifth among all of them. >> they >> have been able to absorb the migrants that they have apprehended here and they do have robust infrastructure from previous years when there were crises along this portion of the border. so it's unclear whether there would be migrants in the border patrol facility behind me when the president is to visit but so far not clear if the president will meet migrants, but he will certainly be spending time with the front-line personnel here. >> priscilla alvarez live for us from brownsville, priscilla. thank you so much. let's take you a few hundred miles northwest of the border there in eagle pass where trump is headed cnn's kristen holmes is there for us kristen, what are we expecting to hear from the former president today >> well, boris, there's a reason that trump is in eagle pass. it is not one of the most heavily trafficked areas by migrants, but it is the political epicenter of the standoff between texas governor greg abbott and president joe biden over who enforces border security and as you know, texas governor has endorsed donald trump. he is expected to be with donald trump while he gets a tour of this area, sees how abbott has implemented state resources to put razor wire on buoys in the rio grande river. but razor wire on train cars around here, essentially implement the national guard and that's who's going to be leading donald trump around as he gets lay of the land here in eagle pass. now, we talk about this election in 2020, this general election the issue being immigration, that is exactly where donald trump wants it to be. it's where his team wants it to be. they believed they have a home court advantage. that is why you're seeing president joe biden lashing out at republicans and donald trump because this has been one of donald trump's core issues since 2015, using often fear mongering rhetoric to try and get americans to pay attention to immigration, but also to get americans to vote for him on the issue of immigration. we were expecting him to do that today as well. he's landing any moment. >> we are told but he's going to focus on a series of crimes that were allegedly committed by migrants, including the killing of a uga student, who's the suspect is an alleged or the alleged suspect is an undocumented venezuelan migrant. he is going to talk about what a trump administration would look like in terms of immigrations is something he had said before. some of those talking points would be rounding up undocumented immigrants, placing them in detention camps, holding them there until they can be deported. tap, tapping into law enforcement to essentially assist with large scale arrest. and he has said time and time again that he would have the largest deportation in history if he is reelected. to the white house. this again, is the issue he wants to be running on. boris. >> kristen holmes live from eagle pass, texas. thank you so much. we actually do have a remarks that the former president may just moments ago upon his arrival to the lone star state, let's listen to former president trump whether a beautiful day but a very dangerous border, we're going to take care of it. thank you >> that was the extent of trump's remarks. we are expecting him to make more extensive remarks later today. we'll of course, keep an eye on the activity there and bring you news as it happens from texas, brianna hi, boris. >> let's go now to rosa flores, who has been covering the border nonstop. and rosa, what will the president and former president actually be seeing today? >> let, me. show you brianna because if you look over my shoulder, this is the area. where former president donald trump will be arriving here pretty soon. you can see that there's an open field. some military helicopters beyond that, there are some shipping containers that to create a border wall of sorts. and there's a lot of razor wire and fencing that has fortified this area. this is shelby park. this is the public park that has been taken over by the state of texas, and we have a high wide shot of this and we can take it control room because it will really give for viewers an idea of what this area looks like. there's a lot of equipment here staged by the state of texas a lot of texas national guard military equipment. all of this area has been taken over by the state of texas border patrol is actually not allowed in here. they're not allowed to patrol role. if you see a truck here and there in any of these shots, it's because border patrol is allowed to bring in boats because there is one ramp in this area to access the rio grande. and so those boats access the rio grande. but other than that, you won't see them. but this is the biggest stage when it comes to the border battle between the state of texas and the federal government min, over who should enforce border security. and there's a lot of feelings in this community about the takeover of this park and also about the visit of former president donald trump. in fact, there was a press conference where some local leaders said that they didn't want the former president to come to their community, take a listen i remember him coming down the escalator and >> reaching the bottom of that escalator and say that all mexicans are rapists, killers and some of them mark you know, that has always stayed in my mind. we've got that particularly gentleman in an area in the community that's 95% mexican american and brianna, it is 95% mexican-american here in eagle >> pass is so former president donald trump is going to be surrounded by mexican americans here. and again, we're expecting him to arrive here at some point and we'll of course bring you that when we have it, brianna. all right. we'll be looking for that. rosa flores on the border there. thank you. and we're joined now by the former acting director of immigration and customs enforcement or ice, during the obama administration, john sandweg john, i just wonder these kinds of visits as we see these dueling one's taking place on the border. so high-profile are they helpful or are they a distraction? how to border officials generally see this brand honestly, it's a mixed bag. it's a distraction. it pulls a lot of operational resources away. but look the rank and file. appreciate the president coming and even the former president coming. it gives them an opportunity to share their insights i found when i was in washington and was incredibly helpful to get to the field. you get a different appreciation of perspective for what's going on. and the challenges they face. so i think look a single, this is kind of crazy, right? if both president trump, former president trump and president biden at the boarding same time. but ultimately, i think that the officers do appreciate the fact that it shows that the leadership in washington does care >> yeah, it is good. no doubt for them to get on the ground. and if they're operating with sort of like open ears and eyes to really see what's happening there. no doubt >> so after >> scuttling that bipartisan agreement that was brokered in the senate between democrats, republicans in the white house former president trump in a lot of his allies in the house, they adhered to a talking point, saying that, listen, you don't even really need new legislation to solve the border crisis. the border patrol union, i should mention that supports trump actually disagrees with that talking point. do you? who think that new laws are needed to fix what we're seeing >> brianna, you absolutely need congressional action to fix this crisis. that is a fundamental truth. and anybody who says that it can be done with a snap of the finger or a wave of magic wand is lying to their constituents at a minimum, there needs to be massive surge of resources into our asylum system to handle the flows. or you need to look at something like the senate bill that fundamentally changed the laws. but it is a completely false narrative suggests that president biden could fix this with just a blink of an eye. you need congressional action and i will tell you there's lots of things you can criticize about that senate bill. there's things you can criticize about the biden administration's approach to the border. maybe they took too long to endorse legislation like this. maybe they tried tactics that we're not going to be effective. but the bottom line is this. you cannot say that the passage that legislation would not have promoted border security and it's very hard to understand that how or why you could justify you say you're pro border security rejecting the legislation and the absence of any other alternative. >> john, what do you want to see? the biden administration do that they're not doing right now will look like i think the biden administration continues to do what they're doing. we need to surge resources. however you do that into the asylum system unless we change the laws like the senate bill would've, which would have eliminated lemonada. a lot of the process and the need to see immigration judges. then we need to find a way to surge resources into that element of the system. i said a moment ago, you can't do it alone now. so the ministration's going to need to get resources from congress just two weeks ago came out that the administration was looking to pull resources from even ice detention in order to address the shortfalls that over at cbp. but the bottom line is, if we're not going to change the rules, do something like the senate bill then we need to have a surge in reestablish the rule of law at the border. and we can't do that without immigration judges and asylum officers and brianna very quickly. i know it's boring. i know it doesn't it's not it's not what you you want to get a speech out at the border, but is the truth in the absence of legal changes, we have to have judges and asylum officers to fix the problem so that people the process speeds up, whether people are being deported, or whether they are being granted asylum. obviously, it goes both ways here. so i asked you about biden. what about trump? he's his detailed this mass deportation proposal. should he be elected in november? and this would require a huge amount of resources, huge law enforcement sweeps, to tensions on an enormous scale. and there are some moral questions that critics are raising about it. is this idea practical in what would his plan look like? >> yeah, brianna and look at it continues to ignore the fundamental reality, the legal framework, the rehab. know, the president, president trump tried a few tactics like this to streamline the process is, you know, a lot of those tactics were enjoined by federal courts and found to be unlawful. but what he's talking about, a mass deportation just cannot happen unless you have immigration judges it is, or you adopt a change in law similar to that senate bill additionally, this idea that we can just detain everybody at the border fails for two reasons. the first reason is it is not a deterrent. time has shown us again and again when i was at the department, looked very closely at deterrence detention, doesn't deter these people there fleeing horrific circuit come stances, being locked up in us immigration detention center does not deter them from coming. but the second thing is ignores the massive resource shortfalls that we have. we dedicate billions of dollars to immigration detention today. he's talking about detaining millions of people were hundreds of thousands of people at time that would take more than $20 billion just on detention alone and even if we had the funding, we don't have the officers, we don't have the infrastructure to do it. so look, i'm worried that this is the same stuff he said in 2016. and if you look at the deportation record of former president trump was actually quite anemic not saying that's good or bad, but compared to the obama administration is much lower. i think we're getting more the same, a lot of easy problem he says and quick fixes mexico is going to pay for the wall, that kind of thing. but the truth is, the situation is much more complex and the answers are much harder to find them that >> yeah, we should remember president obama drew the ire of a lot of immigration activists because of his record on deportations. as you well know, john and mentioned there, john sandweg, great to have have you. thank you >> still ahead. the supreme court deciding to

is cnn was just into cnn, a government shutdown, maybe a for now. let's get right to lauren fox on capitol hill. lauren. so how much time did lawmakers by themselves with this continuing resolution to keep the government open? >> well, the house of representatives has just passed a short-term spending bill that will get them over that spending deadline coming tomorrow at midnight. but there's still a little bit more work ahead before you can say definitively that a government shutdown has been averted. that is because the senate still has to pass their legislation a couple of good pieces of news for speaker mike johnson won. they bought themselves more time to avert this shutdown in the house to he was able to get a majority of his republican conference to vote for this short-term measure that obviously a positive sign for a speaker who's always having to look over his shoulder when it comes to his own job. now, there's also a question how long this is going to take in the senate, because any one senator can slow down this process. i talked to senator ted cruz, a republican from texas. he told me just a few minutes ago he wants an amendment vote on a house passed immigration bill known as hr2 as part of this process, senator rand paul has an amendment that he wants to see. so the republican whip, john thune, was telling our colleague, ted barrett just a couple of minutes ago that he's confident they're going to be able to get an agreement to move this across the finish line in short order, but that agreement hasn't quite come together yet, so we're still keeping an eye on the senate and how fast they can move. but looking more and more likely that this deadline is going, this shutdown deadline is going to be protected and they're gonna be able to pass this bill. >> lauren fox and important update from capitol hill. thank you so much >> so >> former president donald trump's january 6 federal case is now on hold at least for a few more months. the supreme court has announced that it is going to hear arguments on trump's presidential immunity bid in late april. >> this is a big win for the former president, of course, given his election subversion trial was supposed to begin next month with us. now we have cnn senior supreme court analyst joan biskupic, and cnn justice correspondent jessica schneider. jones starting with you here. why would the supreme court decide? yes, we're taking up this case. >> it's an important question. the highest court in our land has never decided whether a president in this case, a former president, should be immune, shielded from criminal prosecution. it's dealt with this in a civil trial context, but never in criminal context. and now donald trump is certainly a distinctive challenge for the legal system. but they have to think in terms of future presidents you know, what, what would be there protection from any kind of prosecution in the future. so it's an important question to be resolved by the supreme court the other thing is it only takes five votes to agree to accept a case like this in this posture, to put on hold the dc circuit ruling so the full-court might not have all been on the same page and in sync, but we know that at least a majority wanted to pursue this at this time. and i want to just mention one final thing. several members of this bench actually have extensive executive branch experience. so separation of powers the authority of a president that's an important question for some of them. >> so this doesn't necessarily mean that they disagreed with the lower court ruling no, it doesn't. and i have to say that i think when all is said and done they will likely affirm the dc circuit and find what seems very practical and valid based on related precedent that a president, former president cannot be absolutely immune from prosecution, which is what donald trump is arguing here. >> so what does this do? jessica to the timeline here for the federal election subversion trial that the president is a former president is facing. well, if jones prediction is correct and they decide that donald trump isn't not immune from this prosecution then it's possible that after they released their decision, which would likely be sometime in june, maybe even the last week of june, then it would get immediately kicked back to the federal trial court and things could start up again. the only thing about that is that judge tanya chutkan has indicated that there will need to be some time before they they actually start this trial. it looks like about three months. so if they decide the supreme court at the end of june that this trial can move forward. it's still possible that we won't actually see a trial until sometime in september, maybe even late september. and then you're getting pretty close to the election of it doesn't mean that the trial can't start. there's nothing that would preclude food it from starting, but still you're really working against a very tight timeline. there were maybe it won't even be concluded before the election. >> i guess the question then becomes how helpful this is to trump's team if for a while there strategy has been delayed, delay, delay, and their strategy is working and they have been appealing every issue possible here and if not winning those appeals, they've at least been able to continue delaying all of these cases for a substantial amount of time. remember, it was back in december when the special counsel went to the supreme court and say, can you step in here early before we even go up the appeals process, the supreme court didn't step in early and instead they're sort of stepping in now and then they'll step in even again in april. so that trump's teams, their strategy here of delay has really been working in their favor even if they haven't had outright wins, those arguments set to start on april 22 the week of april 22. appreciate that direction. that's why we have their expertise here. jessica schneider, joan biskupic. thank you both so much. >> still ahead. we have to tell you about this horrific and chaotic incident in gaza. more than 100 people killed nearly 800 injured, we're

started today at accustoming.com the lead with jake tapper, cnn to date for scenes of >> devastation out of gaza today and conflicting versions of events from palestinians and israelis. a warning now that the video we are about to show you these are pretty graphic videos. this was moments after chaos erupted when israeli forces opened fire as civilians desperate for food, we're gathering at aid trucks the palestinian ministry of health saying that more than 100 people were killed and nearly 800 others were injured. cnn unable to independently the firm those numbers at this point. but an eyewitness as the gunfire triggered panic, people got trampled. is these trucks we're trying to leave the area, but an idf spokesperson says there was no strike from israeli forces toward the aid convoy and instead, soldiers were conducting a humanitarian operation let's go live now to tel aviv where cnn's jeremy diamond is jeremy two very different accounts of what happened help us sort through this >> yeah, we're gonna well, let's start with what people on the ground are telling us happened. and this comes from eyewitnesses on the ground, as well as the journalists with whom we've worked before. and what we understand happened ben, does that as this aid convoy made its way into western gaza city, thousands of people began swarming this convoy. they came around it, some people climbed onto it. the israeli military released drone footage, which does indeed show that. but then people on the ground say that within minutes of that happening, that the israeli military then opened fire on those people that it caused a mass panic with not only people running in different directions, but also the drivers of those trucks flooring it. and driving away. and in the process killing many people. we understand from heather, i'll zaanoun that local journalists, that about 20 people were shot by the israeli military and that the rest of the people to 104 people, that the palestinian ministry of health says were killed, were killed in the ensuing chaos including by being run over by these trucks. but these really military offers a very different timeline. they say that the gunfire from their forces, which they acknowledged happens happened only after there was already a stampede situation, including with trucks running over people they haven't provided any video evidence to that point. they've suggested that it's in that drone footage, but it doesn't actually show dozens of people being run over a by these trucks. the israeli military says that its forces fired on a separate group of people who were near that convoy as they approached that checkpoint, they say in a threatening manner, but the israeli military saying they will continue to investigate at the bottom line here, is that more than 100 people are killed on a day in which we are already marking this very grim marker of 30,000 palestinians having been killed since the beginning of this war, the majority of whom are women and children and more could still die not only by bullets and bombs, but also by starvation as the united nations world food programme is warning that about half 1 million palestinians are now on the brink of famine. that situation is particularly acute in northern gaza, and that's all similarly why we saw scenes like today beyond the israeli gunfire, these people are rushing these trucks because so few aid trucks have actually made it into northern gaza. people are struggling to find meals. they have been living off of grass and animal feed and whatever they can get their hands-on. so this is a desperate situation growing going only increasingly more desperate. and of course, people hoping that there can be some kind of a temporary ceasefire reached in order to get that much needed aid and relief into northern gaza. >> yeah, that's right. jeremy diamond in tel aviv. thank you so much for that. and this is happening, of course, boris is there hostage talks and lots of big worries about whether this will endanger that. >> yeah, absolutely. it's a sensitive time and that is the backdrop of this incident. we are getting new reaction from the white house on what happened in gaza earlier, president biden spoke with the leaders of egypt and qatar. he actually told the qatari leader that today's incident underscores the urgency of bringing negotiations to a close. as soon as possible and expanding the flow of humanitarian assistance into gaza. we have cnn chief national security correspondent alex marquardt with us alex, what is the president saying about how, what happened in gaza could complicate these negotiations. >> he's saying exactly that that this will complicate the discussions and it's notable that he spoke with the leaders of qatar and egypt today. those are the two other main mediators trying to get to this ceasefire. and i remember boris a couple of days ago, the president had said that there could be a ceasefire in place as early as monday that took a lot of people by surprise and the president actually walk that back today saying that it's likely not on monday. but he said that hope springs eternal. what we're really hearing from biden mutation officials today is that this really shows the urgency of the need for a ceasefire the question that i've been putting two sources is, does this derail the ceasefire talks that something that hamas indicated might be the case, that this certainly complicates them or does it accelerate them? i think when you look at those overhead drone videos that we've seen, it really emphasizes the point that not enough aid has been getting into gaza and it hasn't been getting to the right places. this incident took place in the northern part of the gaza strip, a long way away from those two southern border crossings where the aid is going in. so us officials are saying, we need to get to a ceasefire because a major component of that ceasefire is not just getting those hostages released. it's not just a pause in the fight. heading its upping that amount of humanitarian aid going into gaza. >> and you see the desperation in that overhead footage, alex, there's also concern about a possible israeli movement into lebanon to address concerns about hezbollah. us officials are worried about that. they really are >> and while these us mediated talks have been going on about a pause in gaza asa, there's a parallel track where the vitamin a striation is leading, talks between israel and lebanon over a ceasefire up there since october 7. we've seen daily deadly cross-border strikes between hezbollah and lebanon. and the israelis to the point where tens of thousands of lebanese and israelis have been displaced i'm being told by senior

on capitol hill as defense secretary lloyd austin testifies about his failure to immediately notify >> president biden and lawmakers after he was hospitalized last month for complications from prostate cancer surgery the defense chief waited several days to disclose his whereabouts at is something that lawmakers from both sides of the aisle have strongly criticized today's scolding him to his face in his first congressional appearance since his health crisis seen as the tausche bertrand is at the pentagon for us and talk to those lawmakers really didn't hold back okay, here what were the big takeaways from the hearing >> yeah, brianna and as you said, lawmakers on both sides of the aisle, they did express concerns over the significant delay that austin incurred. wall, of course, but he was in the hospital in notifying any senior national security officials, really including the president of his hospitalization. and the fact that he was in the intensive care unit for part of that hospitalization. but of course, the sharpest criticism really fell along party lines and you heard republicans call it an embarrassment. some republicans said that it was a boon to propaganda by the russians and by other bad actors who are trying to boy any kind of appearance that there is no firm command and control at the department of defense. but secretary of defense lloyd austin, he really emphasized here that even though there was a delay and a gap and something went wrong clearly in the notification process, there was never any actual gap in terms of the transfer of power. here's just a bit of what he told lawmakers early this morning >> there was never any lapse in authorities or in command and control at all times, either i or the deputy secretary was in a position to conduct a duties of my office but we did have a breakdown in notifications during my january stay at walter reed that is, a sharing my location and why i was here >> so there was a pretty tense exchange with another republican lawmaker during that hearing where austin was specifically asked essentially, whose fault this was that the president of the united states, the white house, national security adviser, even his deputy, were not notice to fight until days after he entered the hospital of exactly why he needed to transfer his authorities and he could not give a very clear answer on that. he had told this lawmaker that he expected his staff, essentially, the building, to notify the proper people, but clearly, that did not pan out still though he would not place blame i'm squarely on any of his staff members and he simply said that this is a process that is going to be fixed moving forward and that is exactly why there was a 30 day review carried out by the pentagon to try to figure out just how this process can be smoothed out in the future again, really homing in here on the idea that this was a notification process failure and not one that actually jeopardize national security at any point, brianna how's he doing? how's his health right now >> so according to officials, he's doing well, he says himself that it is going to be a lengthy recovery process. he still has some pain in his leg from those complications from his prostate surgery, but by enlarge according to officials, he has an excellent prognosis, particularly when it comes to his cancer diagnosis. >>

today after announcing that she's leaving the company's board and excuse me offloading her shares >> this move comes as we watchers is grappling with some sudden competition from ozempic of course, and other drugs for weight loss. in fact, winfrey herself revealing just this past december, she added a weight-loss medication to her regimen and though she didn't specify which one, let's begin, cnn business correspondent, vanessa, your to talk about this. what's the impact here on weightwatchers? it seems pretty severe this is the power of oprah winfrey when she announces that she's stepping down from the board of weightwatchers. you see markets respond at one point. at the open weightwatchers stock was down 70%. at last check it was down about 23% but she says that she's stepping down in may. she will not run for reelection for the board. she's donating all of her shares she owns about 10% to the national museum of african american history and culture. but she still plans to stick around in some capacity advising the ceo and the company. but oprah joined weightwatchers in 2015. she was a shareholder. she was a board member up until may. and she was very much a spokesperson for the company. she really was able to inspire people and she also was able to hold herself accountable to her weight loss goals. she has it's been very open about her struggles around weight loss. and she joined weightwatchers in part to do it all naturally. however, as you mentioned in december of last year, she announced that she was taking a weight loss drugs. she says that she has found freedom minute and she's never felt better at 70. so clearly a big transition and for oprah, but also a big transition for weightwatchers, given that revelation of vanessa, was it tenable for her to stay on maybe not. >> this was clearly oprah's decision. she's the one making the decision to step down, but it's interesting that weightwatchers actually coming off of this weight loss drug craze started a whole new membership program where folks could join weightwatchers and beyond weight loss drugs and they'd have access to doctors who could write them prescription since, but also nutrition plans and weightwatchers for their part. in a statement has thanked oprah for all of the work she's done with the company and says that they very much look forward to continuing to work with her in some capacity as a collaborator and a partner going forward. but clearly this is the big, big loss for the company. but just oprah starting her next chapter >> yeah, no power of oprah. we see it. vanessa,
