is trying to make a comeback. but is it a bluff because he just trying to get attention will ask one of his former closest aides who will be here this hour plus a friday. feel good from my hometown philly. see how the power of popcorn is giving one group but sense of pride and independence and leading this hour, president biden on the road taking his state of the union address on tour for stop bat around pennsylvania and we're standing by for him to speak any moment now, after last night's supercharged rather political speech, let's get right to cnn's mj lee who's in wallingford, pennsylvania, one in 08 six as i recall, we're president biden is about to speak and mj president biden's speech is to set to kick off a month-long tour, continuing his state of the union message, what exactly is the white house planning? >> yeah, jake, we should be seeing president biden take the stage behind me any minute now, here in the suburbs of philadelphia to really kick off his post state of the union tour. and we are about to see just a flurry of travel from the president. tomorrow. he had said lana, georgia, and then next week we'll see him traveling to do hampshire on monday and then on wednesday and thursday, wisconsin and michigan, of course two of some of the most important battleground states heading into november. and what the campaign is saying is that between in the president and vice president kamala harris, they plan on the two of them hitting up every battleground state in the coming weeks. now, of course, all of this is about amplifying the message but we heard from president biden last night in his state of the union remarks and just a few minutes ago, we heard the president telling reporters on the tarmac about the idea of debate hitting his gop. gop opposition candidate donald trump, and also whether he tuned into the republican rebuttal to his remarks last night. take a listen. >> will you commit to a debate with former president trump? >> depends on its behavior i just saw a little bit on television >> and we're going to see the campaign bulking up as well in the month of march parts of the campaign says that they're going to open some hundred new offices and make some 350 new hires. and that's also an addition to a new ad campaign that going to be launching to the tune of some $30 over some six weeks. so these ads, as you can imagine, are going to be focused on the president's policies and also country can you going to draw that contrast between himself and donald trump? this of course, coming the day after we heard the president in booking his predecessor, no less than 13 times in his state of the union address, jake. >> all right. mj lee, thanks so much with us now, democratic congressman gregory meeks from new york. he's the ranking member of the house foreign affairs committee, congressman good to see you. so president biden getting a lot of praise from democrats for his performance is delivery what do you say to those who say, you know, it was a very political speech. she invoked his opponent, donald trump, 13 times. not appropriate for a state of the union address i think that they could not refute the fact of what he said. >> and so they say is not >> appropriate because what the president did was talk about what he had accomplished in the three years where we started from. why in fact, we had the we had the greatest pandemic that the world everything that caused the academy to take not only in the united states around the world. and he talked about how we got out of that. and that now we have recovered and we are we have the best economy in almost any economy in the world so he talked about the fact, let me talk about what he wanted to do in the future, you know, and what what we need to do. and he talked about the bill that are on the table that he wanted the congress to pass because it will make it better for all americans, like the bipartisan border agreement that the republican or blocker like moving forward with support for ukraine like making sure that we have humanitarian aid to go into the bills. so it was about the state of the union where we were where we moved where we are now, and where we're going in the future >> not exactly, >> but they could not refuse any of it. so you say, oh, it was political >> yeah. >> let me let me let me ask you because he just mentioned aid to ukraine. we've been told that there are still efforts being made in the house of representatives to get aid for israel, ukraine, and taiwan through the house. what can you tell us about that? >> but we're work at hot the easiest way to do it is all the speaker has to do is to put the bill on the floor. if you put the bill on the floor let congress do its will we will get over 300 votes for it. >> instead >> of allowing a few of the maga, republicans and the speaker who are clearly does not want to do anything other than what the former president wants hold it out. so that it quickest way to get it done. and we need to do it because time is running out yet, but that's that's not going to happen. >> just put it on the floor. he's not >> going to just put it on the floor so what do you guys are making? i would hope i would hope because we've got as democrats, we had everything, all options open. so we're talking to and i've been talking to some of my republican counterparts who many of them, when we were in munich said to president zelenskyy, we're going to get this done so if the opsin is a motion to discharge or something of that nature, if this stuff since the republicans are blocking me from come on the floor, then basic work with us. so we have this dialogue and conversation to try to find out as, you know, what will it take? for those folks in the republican party that believes that it's the right thing to do. what will it take for us to get a bill on the floor so that we can vote for it. what it clearly were very outside. the problem is down and we are talking to them. so what does it take? >> i want to ask you about this moment last night, relevant to your work on the house foreign affairs committee and invited guest of congress, i think i think congressman mike waltz, a guy named steve nicu, stood up in the gallery, started yelling and president biden nicu, son is, you know, he was a us marine, killed during the 2000 in 21 kabul airport suicide bombing at abbey gate. let's take a watch >> america safer today than when i took office year before i took off his murder ration up 30% 30% they went up the biggest increase in history it was then through no so >> it was difficult at the time to hear out here what he's saying, but just just to explain, he was yelling abbey and united states marine. obviously a lot of these gold-star families are upset with the withdrawal, how it happened they think there was a cover-up. they think the administration hasn't been sensitive enough to what happened. what did you make of it all >> we're number one, you know, my heart goes out to every gold star family. >> there >> was and the lost that they had. no, but i will tell you that we have the oversight committee midi responsibility oversight responsibility on our committee. and the state department has been working with us at every state of the game. and i think that they put out the after action review process of which talked about and where we had individuals as to what took place and what did not take place, what we needed to do to approve to improve in the future. but i also think that because what is happening on our committee is people are not looking at in order to make the determination is what took place, the cause of the lead up to it example i think that we should look at the entire 20 years because there's something that connects to it. but especially when they the former administration along with them. secretary of state pompeo, decided that they were going to undercut the afghan government and and elevate those individuals in and cause the government of afghan to depart >> now, we're looking at it yeah. and we have the committee has received more than 100 hours of testimony from multiple and current and former officials and the state department has also provided over 11,000 pages of documents to the committee and for its part, i would just tell you and looking at this, the state department has facility the appearance of every requested witness and the afghanistan investigation. right. we're doing all of those things, but nothing has changed the facts from what the aar has stated. but it just seems to me as the republican leadership as doing i'm going every committee is just trying to do investigations where there's nothing found that contradicts, for example, what the aar or the after-action review has indicated, right. but you work pretty well with the chairman of the house foreign affairs committee or the ranking democrat. the chairman, the ranking republican, michael mccaul has been threatening to hold secretary of state antony blinken in contempt of congress for failing to turn over documents related to the withdrawal from afghanistan now, mccall says, it seems to be walking it back. he said blinken has agreed to start handing over documents have you been happy with the cooperation by the state department? it are they finally doing what needs to be done for the purposes of oversight >> is that finally, they've been doing it i've just said every we received over 100 hours of testimony okay. from multiple and current and former officials. >> we the >> state department has also provided over 11,000 pages of documents to the committee and the documents of which let my dear friend and chairman of the committee just asked for i had a chance to yell to stop, to look into review. and you can tell that to me. what it substantiates is that the after action review, which was put in place so that people under being anonymous could give their actual and not as feelings and thoughts where you see some talking about some of the positive aspects of it, some talking about the force of it. and what needs to be done to help in the future that those documents you can see was taken into consideration when the after action and review was put together? so i see there's nothing more or anything that i've seen thus far that is trying to hide anything. >> was was it absolutely perfect. well, no, the entire 20 years in afghanistan was not perfect but what we were looking at is how do we can make sure what we can learn from it? just as we did 911 so that we could be better prepared in the future, but not trying to just do what had been doing and other committees where you see, for example, may orcas impeach him, try to impeach the president, tried to bring down the state department. that's just not what we should be doing here. >> democratic congressman gregory meeks of new york, good to see you, sir. thanks for joining us really appreciate it. >> thank you, jake up next the $92 bond that donald trump posted today for one of his legal cases, plus the deadline he faces next week >> this situation room with wolf blitzer denied night at six point cnn >> i how in an instant things can transform slipping out of balance in a freefall this is happening. we >> there so few certainties as we navigate a future unknown i'm glad i found stability him. that's >> go standing the test of time. >> we really don't want people to think of feeding food like ours. a spoiling or dogs >> good real food is simple. >> it looks >> like food >> smells like food. >> it's what dogs are supposed to be eating no living being should ever eat processed food for every single meal life >> it's amazing to me how many people write in about their dogs changing for the better the farmers dog is just our way to help people take care of them few. that missing teeth reset smile is a life-changing act, afraid to smile. and now i can't stop smiling, reset >> smile is an affordable way to replace your missing teeth from hamas at a fraction of the cost of dental implants, you get an impression kits sent to your home when you mail it back?

now, trump had proposed putting up $100 and then appeal the case. appellate court judge struck that down. but in pellet court panel is hearing this, they will ultimately decide if he's going to get an extension to not have to post this ban while the appeal is playing out, they are expected to make a decision later this month that will coincide with the timing that this is due. and also the start of donald trump's criminal trial in new york related to those hush money payments all right. >> kara scannell in new york. thanks so much. let's bring in russ buettner, easy investigative reporter for the new york times has covered trump's finances extensively. ross. so the nearly $92 bond and trump posted today was underwritten by the insurance company chubb in order to get that bond, trump has to put up assets to show that the insurer that he's good for the money, what might those assets? >> well, he has a certain amount of cash, jake, we never really know how much there is. as recently as a year or so ago, he it looks like he probably had 300 to $350 million in cash from selling a couple of assets and a refinance at someone else did have an investment. he had a piece of. but one thing we've learned about looking at donald trump's businesses is generally they eat cash. so if you had that much, then we would expect he didn't. now. and then this on today locks up even more of his money, right? that boxes off some portion of money that you committed to that. so i think it's likely that most of the cash that he has, if he has any left it's going to have to go to sort of guaranteeing these two bonds meeting the needs of whatever insurer might want on the larger bond and possibly signing over some assets that are already sort of really encumbered by mortgages. >> so you've written in depth on trump's cash position in the past that the way he does business tends to burn through cash very quickly. does he have solid sources of cash? these days ways that money is coming in to his coffers well, it's a great question. the last time we had a perfect window on his finances was a couple of years ago. and what we saw is that when he was on the apprentice, he had an incredible amount of money from being on the show and also from licensing an endorsement agreements that came along with that in 2011 for example, we made 51 million dollars just in that year from those things. that's a lot of money. but the businesses that he ran, his golf courses in his hotels tend to require him to infuse cash on a regular basis. so as the apprentice money dipped, the licensing money dip down to almost zero by the time he entered the white house, those businesses were starting to eat up more and more of his cash the attorney general found there was one year where he would have been like literally out of cash except for the beneficial interest rates have gone on. some of these loans that were subject to this fraud case. so it does raise always questions about whether he has access to it. i think one thing is certain. he does not have access to the 500 plus million he would need or the bond in this larger case, he can't just produce that much money and keep operating as a business. and that's what they said in that filing last week where they said we could maybe get a bond for $100 and they asked the court to consider that. i think it's really clear that larger judgment is not within his reach. yeah. part of that judgment that new york civil fraud judgment barred the trump organization from doing business in new york, except in order to secure loans to pay the fines in the case. now, the band is on hold on. the ban on doing business in new york while trump appeals that judgment. but if that appeal fails, what happens to the trump organization? >> well, i think first he's got to get to the bond so he can have the appeal play its way out and buy some more time that could be an existential threat to him but if he has to ultimately just pay this judgment, he would exhaust more than all the cash that has i think that's very clear. he would have to sell something. they've got a chord court appointed monitor that's in place there who would oversee what he could sell. >> and >> there's really just a few pieces of his enterprise that are left that helps support the other ones. and if the monitor or the court decided those were the ones that had to go in order to meet the terms of the judgment that again, would be another existential threat. to the trump organization is an ongoing concern. >> all right. recipe at nerve, the new york times, always good to have you on. thanks so much. appreciate it. >> thank you, jake. >> a man well known for sharing his story of rehabilitation and second chances after being released from prison last year is now under arrest and he's being charged with a grisly murder in new york city. the shocking details next i'll just use caught in the trap and he couldn't get out >> vegas was having an identity crisis. >> that was the beginning of the downfall, but >> vegas at a different idea vegas, the story of sensitive next sunday at ten on cnn >> it's a new day. >> one were shared values propel us toward it's a more secure future through august of partnership built upon cutting-edge american, australian, and british technologies will develop state of the yard next generation submarines and build something stronger together. securing decades of peace and prosperity for america and our allies we are going forward and staying forward together >> hi, my name is kim and i am 41 years old. i've been given the opportunity to work from home. so that means lots of video calls. i see myself more and i definitely see those deeper lines i'm still kim and i got botox cosmetic. i wanted to keep the expressions that i would normally have. your right, you're on camera. and the only person they can look at is you. i was really happy with results. i looked like me just with fewer lines, botox cosmetic is fda approved to temporarily make frown lines crows feet, and for headlines looked better, the effects of botox cosmetically but hours to weeks after injection causing serious symptoms. alert your dr. right away as difficulty swallowing, speaking, breathing, i problems for muscle weakness may be a sign of a life-threatening condition, do not receive botox cosmetic if you have skin infection side effects may include allergic reactions, injection site pain, headache, eyebrow, eyelid, drooping and i would swelling. tell your dr. about your medical history, muscle or nerve conditions and medications including botulinum toxins as these may increase the risk of serious side effects. see for yourself if botox cosmetic.com this is your invitation to experience the elevation of electrification and some of the best offers of the yields, like models at the invitation to alexis sales event >> the edge and rash of moderate to severe eczema disrupts my skin night and day. despite treatment, it's still not under control. but now i have revoke run voc is a once-daily pill that reduces the itch and helps clear the rash of eczema fast summer invoked patients felt significant inch relief as early as two days some achieve dramatic skin clearance as early as two weeks. and many taking invoke saw clear or almost clear skin. >> rinvoq can lower your ability to fight infections, including tb serious infections, and blood clots. some fatal cancers including lymphomas, skin, heart attack, stroke, and gi tears occurred people 50 and older with a heart disease risk factor haven't increased risk of death. serious allergic reactions can occur. tell your dr. if you are maybe become pregnant, help heal your painful skin, disrupt the and rash of eczema. talk to your dr. about brynn vote >> learn how add v can help you save >> whoa, how did you defeat them?

>> so jake shelton johnson junior has been really a public voice for rehabilitation after incarceration but today, as you point out, he now stands accused of shooting and killing a bronx man who was later found dismembered. and i have to warn you and our viewers to details according to investigators they really are disturbing according to police 44 year-old colin smalls torso and his feet were discovered in his apartment. that's per a police report, was sources telling our colleague, mark morales that smallest head with a gunshot wound and arm and legs were also later discovered in johnson's freezer now, according to police, johnson has seen on surveillance video entering and exiting smalls apartment on tuesday, which is when investigators believed that the murder took place. and at times, if you look closely, you even can i can tell that he appears to be wearing disguises before johnson was arrested and charged with murder, manslaughter, and concealment of a corpse. he was publicly and claiming that he essentially turned his life around after spending nearly half of his life in prison for homicide and robbery. fact, after being released just this past, may, he gained a reputation for being an advocate for criminal justice reform recently he even appeared on joe rogan's podcast and on it, he described himself as a former criminal and gang leader. and the product of intergenerational incarceration. but now he said he was on this so-called journey towards redemption. urine, his ged while in prison even went through conflict resolution training. want you to hear more of what johnson said on that podcast appearance about his so-called path towards rehabilitation and as you listen, keep in mind that he's now accused in an absolutely gruesome killing >> i've been doing bad for so long. i'm going to try to do something good if all else fails, i could always go back to doing back. >> but let me try let me give it a shot >> that appearance only from about a month ago, cnn has reached out to johnson's legal representatives for comment. we should mention though that while being escorted out of a local precinct by police officers yesterday, johnson did maintain his innocence since he pleaded not guilty to all of the counts that i mentioned, plus some additional ones. he's also expected back in court on monday, by the way, police have not really elaborated what they think that the connection might be between johnson and small, the victim in this case >> so obviously this doesn't change the fact that rehabilitation is possible, but but how are all the people who who have been supporting his rehabilitation efforts? how are they reacting to this >> cnn had opportunity to speak to brian stanley's actually a, a court advocate that pushes for and incarceration alternatives. and he was very clear in saying that it is his hope that people do not lose sight of, or at least are able to distinguish between the alleged crimes took place here and the work that stanley said that johnson was trying to do for new york sheath. but again, he now stands accused of some extremely serious and gruesome crimes and is expected back in coordinate a couple of days, jake. >> all right. polo sandoval. thanks so much. >> silver shoes and all >> george santos made his grand return to capitol hill for biden instead of the union address he claims he plans to launch a new reelection campaign. >> it safe for real. >> i'm going to ask someone who knows them quite well. >> next >> erin burnett, outfront tonight at seven on cnn. >> you ever worry we wouldn't get you enjoy this >> seriously. i'm on the green and all i could think about as all the >> green, i'm spending on three gets into within power, i get all my financial questions to so i don't have to wear empower. >> what's next >> jorge is always put the ones he loves first, but when it comes to caring for his teeth, when he's led his own maintenance, take a backseat. >> well, maybe it's time to shift gears on that because aspen dental has the latest technology and equipment with a staff that goes out of their way to provide exceptional care plus free exam there's an x-rays for new patients without insurance in 20% off treatment plants. making it easier to get started with quality care. it's one more way. aspen content is in your corner. >> i met with the turbotax expert because i had two full-time jobs, lawyering and mimi count on me, mia, i'll file your taxes for you with 100% accuracy guaranteed let a turbotax full service expert do your taxes as soon as today >> if you struggle with we see path, you should check out, inspire inspire sleep apnea innovation, learn more and view important safety information at inspire sleep.com. >> whether you come to key west for an in-depth history lesson were you just want to skim the surface key west story is richer more colorful more substantial >> and quirkier than you ever imagine key west close to perfect. far from normal. >> if you have graves disease gritty eyes could be more than a rough patch. people with graves could also get thyroid disease or ted, which may need a different dr. find a ted is specialist at is-it ted.com?

that right? yes, that's okay. >> so let's talk about this. you resigned as comms director after he was arrested and charged for fraud and other crimes, said you saying you you were honored to quit. santos said he wouldn't seek reelection after that damning ethics report. do you think this is where elysse really going to run for reelection or is he just trying to get attention? >> i feel like it's a little bit of both. they've like it's a little bit of it's like veep when she says she's rebranded. so i don't know if he's doing something very similar here. this is a completely different part of long island which was once occupied by i lee zeldin. so i really don't know if he's able going he's going to be able to do the following things. get the signatures that he will need to be on the ballot. and then also the primary is in june. so yes, it's very short amount of time to get signatures, file and get some sort of fundraising dollars. >> it seems improbable that he'll be able to mount any sort of serious challenge to an incumbent republican nick lalota who is, as you note, the first congressional districts and comic congressman he's one of the new york republicans. the push to expel santos is this about revenge then maybe do you think because it doesn't sound like it's a very serious candidacy. if it's in june and he's challenging an incumbent, maybe he just wants to attack lalota. >> i think it's a little bit of both. once again, i don't know if it's a little bit of a rabbet, a taylor swift have a wrench store or but it's also for someone who literally had said that he to hell with this place. so i'm just a little surprised. i thought, you know, doing great with cameo so again, i but i will say this about congressman lalota. i would take this very seriously because once again, we could see something slipped through the cracks well, just like let's think back to 2014 with former majority leader eric cantor when he lost to dave brat out of the blue. so it's just it's one of those. is it a joke? yes. but also it's an opportunity to to just once again prove that you can be george santos, whether it's kicking him out of congress or out of a primary. >> so republicans obviously lost the special election to fill santa's to seat for the district that santos had, democrat tom suozzi is now the incumbent congressman who's now running for reelection for november in his announcement, santos said the fight for our majority is imperative for the survival of the country. so let's listen to some of the responses from new york republicans and others he's an embarrassment to here in congress. that's one of the reasons that we led the charge to expel him. >> i think george santos should focus if that's really his name, that's what he should focus. he should focus more on worrying about his personal issues and trying to come back here and make another spectacle out of this, one of this country's oldest institutions it's. >> a >> free nation and people can run whenever they want. but i think george >> is just not honest. >> i think his time has come and gone what's your personal reaction? because obviously you know, you dedicated your life to him. thankfully, he was only for six months, but you worked hard for him. i'm sure. and i'm sure you hide your challenges >> what do you >> think is something wrong with him? and if so, what is it? >> i think it's i want to say yes, i'm a little bit just because it sounds like someone who just he went from being a congressman to a celebrity. and i think just the media attention that came around him during his entire time in congress. it just i think it increased his ego and i after listening to members such as nick lalota, anthony d'esposito, i agree with them. i mean, it's a joke and one of my biggest questions is do we need to go back? and i think congressman ritchie torres has already begun filing legislation that would revoke his floor pro-british. >> yeah, there's justice for those confused about why he was even allowed on the floor of the house last night. he has lifelong floor privileges despite being expelled. and as you know, ritchie torres, a different different congressman from new york. he's a democrat. and this is that's according to punchbowl, quote is introducing a new rule, the george rule. george stands for getting expelled, officially revokes guaranteed entry rule. that's pretty clever actually, that would revoke house floor privileges for expelled members of the house of representatives. you you think that that's a good rule?
