written responses to russia's demands in their ukraine. the secretary of state saying the ball is now in russia's court as tensions heightened between moscow and kiev. one california the first of its kind gun laws requiring canova's to purchase liability insurance and pay an annual tax. what it could mean for gun owners across the country. begin tonight with the story. global supreme court justice stephen breyer and what i am told is his eminent retirement. white house correspondent kevin corke has all the details tonight, including how the administration is responding to questions about seeking his successor. >> very interesting responses to that question. good evening. not long after it was reported that supreme court justice stephen breyer what in fact leave the bench at term's end, at least reportedly, white house press secretary jen psaki insisted that president biden would stand by his promise to nominate a black woman into the high court. critics of course and that strategy for focusing on the mic unfairly on the nominees race and gender and not nearly enough on quality that makes them worthy for the highest court in the land. >> i am looking forward to making sure there is a black woman on the supreme court and making sure. not a joke. i've worked very hard for that. >> that was joe biden on the campaign trail back in 2020. now his pledge is but a prelude to what could be a presidency altering selection. but the longtime liberal supreme court justice stephen breyer now said to leave the bench at the conclusion of this term. >> i will let him make whatever statement he is going to make and i will be happy to talk it out of him later. >> the story broke before breyer could announce his decision surprising that just as in many court watchers would seem him repeatedly resist previous calls for him to step down, thus clearing the way for younger jurists. >> the right opportunity to decide what he or she is going to do and announce it on their unpaired >> and bill clinton nominated stephen breyer back in 1994, joe biden was there. >> judge and mr. breyer, welcome. delighted to have you here. >> now, some 28 years later, biden will nominate breyer's replacement. the list likely candidates includes federal judge ketanji brown jackson. a former breyer law clerk and leondra krueger, justice on california supreme court. some wondered today if another candidate for the court, say someone close to the president, might garner a closer look. >> with someone who was attorney general of a large state and who served with many senate votes to be an candidate to the president for an open supreme court to question mike >> i see we did there for the present has any intention of running for reelection and for running for reelection with vice president harris on the ticket as his partner. >> that is the story. they are take mike sticking to it. you heard her say has every intention would you know is also washington speak for we will sue happens. as for the timing of all of this, democrats on capitol hill know all too well at the midterms are in fact looming and their leadership in effect would that be hanging in the balance paid so they would ultimately like to speed walk this process. much of the simile republicans ushered justice amy coney barrett to the bench prayed she went for to confirmation in one month. shannon. >> shannon: it was lightning fast. all right. kevin, if you get a sweet tooth, you're going to want to hear what kevin has to say in a few minutes. >> see you then. >> shannon: went to get some expert analysis now on justice breyer's impending retirement, potential replacements, and the big picture from marshall and anthony kennedy, former use a terry henry limit along with john yoon. great to have both of you with us tonight. i want to start with this. from national review saying today that biden has unwisely limited his options by preemptively declaring during the 2020 campaign that his first how many would be a black woman. in a stroke, he qualified the mic disqualified dozens of people ever do like other for no reason other than race and gender. not a smart start. john, they just took the affirmative action case also involving allegations of discrimination at harvard and unc. what do you make of the timing and the presidents parameters that he said? >> no max >> that they would rule out 90%, more than 90% of the population from their consideration for filling the seat. it's also an unfortunate commentary on justice breyer and how much the democratic party has moved in favor of identity politics. justice breyer himself cannot be considered the very seat he is vacating because he is a white man. what is wrong with black men, what is wrong with asian women or hispanic men? i think that this obsession with race, skin color, is actually going to hurt the ability to choose someone who might be a brilliant -- and it is as you said, ironic that the court is going to be considering this fall the case on whether race-based preferences in college and university admissions should survive constitutional scrutiny. >> shannon: and help us as we try to figure out a short list of people that the president will go to, been a lot of speculation about some specific judges out there, some jurists that i thought -- harry, i will get your reaction. judge ketanji brown jackson. very well respected on the circuit which is viewed as the aaa of the leagues of getting you into the supreme court. a number have come from that court. justice leondra krueger who sits on the california supreme court. justice candace jackson, also sits on the federal bench at the appellate level. there are other names floating around. what do you make of the potential nominees? >> first of all, to john's point, it is true that he has narrowed the field and it was a political imperative at the time, but he has narrowed it to a field that, a, has never been selected before but has plenty of very qualified candidates. so both krueger and brown jackson have impeccable, gold plated resumes. very much like the ones that supreme court justices of the past 20 years who have been very highly qualified have had. so i don't think it is a bad reflection on them. now, it will be interesting, though, because there is going to be some push in the democratic caucus, how about somebody less traditional, not off the harvard type? a different kind of person. but i think both krueger and ron jackson are really have missed up to replace and make an impact. and so biden will have a slate in front of him, even if it is narrowed, that will have very qualified people on it. a hard choice make anyways. >> shannon: yeah. very qualified, as you said and respected across the political spectrum for their service on the bench. the interesting to note, you don't have to be a lawyer to be nominated to the supreme court. so who knows. they could go very interesting with the pig, some buddy who is not even a terrorist. a republican iffy -- who will bless his campaign again, his abuse of the bia, his refusal to enforce immigration laws and his lawless vaccine mandates, specked a major battle in the senate. there is a lot there to impact. what tactics do republicans have on their side if democrats stick together. this is a done deal. >> i think you have it exactly right. for those of us who supported the senate's quick confirmation of the 3 justices, this is the same rules that are going to benefit president biden. as long as his party is in control of the white house and the senate and he has a tie-breaking vote with kamala harris, they can move the process pretty quick. if the trump justices were getting confirmed within six weeks, which was the latest with amy coney barrett, i would be surprised justice jackson or a justin krueger can also go through in six or seven weeks. what is good for the goose is good for the gander here. >> shannon: let's talk about this. it is not an ideological shift aside from not replacing justice ruth bader ginsburg with justice 80 to amy coney barrett it is. this is going to be a democratic nominee. but a lot of these nominees are young. 40s, early 50s. it would certainly give the president a legacy of several decades of his take on the court. how do you think it could shift the court if at all? >> that is the big point. it is already a very young court. justice barrett's and 50. she turned 50 on friday. so this will change. i think there's a sense in which breyer seems like from the past. and that will be the big change. to john's point, i totally agree. i think a few people like holly will blow hot air but if the republicans are smart, and i think they will be, this isn't something they want to fight only to lose. graham i think signaled today that they are going to let it go through and maybe try to use talking points about activists, democrats, or whatever. but they would be ill-advised, i think, to make a big long fight. biden -- this gives him a great talking point and focus. i think republicans will want what is good for the dems will be good for the republicans here. they want to make fairly quick work of it i think. >> shannon: and we know republicans have voted for judge ketanji brown jackson just last year. so it's going to be tough to say that this is different, although when you get to this league, vetting and the confirmation is a whole different ball game. so we will watch and see but we do expect it to play out very quickly as we still await the official announcement from justice breyer. thank you both. >> thanks. >> thanks, shannon. >> shannon: hundreds of mourners gathering inside the 32nd police precinct in harlem tonight paying their respects to the candlelight vigil for jason rivera and wilbert mora, the two nypd officers were killed and embers shooting friday night. senior correspondent laura ingle has more stories from

officials are making it clear there are core principles the u.s. will defend. one of those being ukraine sovereignty and territorial integrity and the right of states to choose their own security arrangements and alliances. >> russia has tens of thousands of troops of the border. they have the ability also to make the decision to de-escalate, to bring troops back from the border, to participate in good faith in a diplomatic conversation. and that would certainly be our preference. >> however, one unnamed state department official reportedly tells fox news intelligence shows "every indication that russia plans to use military force in ukraine by mid-february." and the pentagon isn't taking any chances. it is standing by its decision to off-load $200 million worth of weapons and counting into ukraine. >> we have seen nothing that makes it clear that mr. putin is willing to de-escalate the tensions and move those trips away. so here at the pentagon, our job to defend this nation and national security interests and those are our allies in nato, so we have to assume that we have to be ready. >> on the ground in ukraine, reporting by ovarian steve who is there mixed reaction. there could be work with devastating consequences. other saying they are scared and that it is calm their wall as many as five western nations have already evacuated part of their embassy and staff. ukrainian officials are telling people not to pack their bags. >> we can say 100 times per day that invasion is imminent, but this doesn't change the situation on the ground. and

>> yeah, shannon, i think we are in a real transition point. i think today when our ambassador to moscow past him our response from secretary of state -- i think he gave putin three options. first option is to do nothing, to sit and wait. i don't think you will do that. the second option is to continue to negotiate. but they have been negotiating ukraine and europe and in places like that for the last eight years. and i don't think he is going to continue to negotiate. i think the last thing that is going to happen, he is going to take some type of military action in the near term. primarily, the term part of ukraine. if you look at the amount of forces you have -- it is uniquely positioned. there is a real demarcation line if you look at a map of ukraine. anything to the east of that river is primarily russian speaking. you can load up and forces and go into there. that is what he is probably going to do in the near term, not the four term. but the longer he waits militarily, the worse it is for him because we continue to provide military aid to ukraine. we do in the french do. i don't think he can continue to sit and wait for that happen. and i don't think sanctions -- i can't believe there's a point where he's going to make his call on what he thinks is important to him, his national security. i don't think sanctions are going to do anything. i think if there is a way to finesse this a lot earlier and we did not do it a good job on that. what i mean by finesse as we could have everybody that ukraine wants to be part of nato in the near term because it is such a corrupt nation anyway probably the second most in europe after russia and all 30 nations of nato are not going to approve ukraine to come and pay but we didn't do that. >> shannon: what should the u.s. role here? it's not a part of nato. ukraine is not a part of nato. but putin has been aggressive crimea, and potentially with eastern ukraine. we know the rest of the world is watching. xi is watching this in relation to taiwan and other places around the world that are hot spots that are testing this administration. but a lot of americans that we don't want to be drawn into any other further incursions. the u.s. resident said u.s. troops are not going into ukraine. why is our role here? >> i think with president biden needs to do is really go until the europeans this is in your backyard. this is not in our backyard, it is in yours. and you need to make sure that russia understands the consequences of their actions. primarily from places like germany and it's an energy issue with germany. most of russia, 50% of the energy that flows to europe, comes out of russia. they can go other places if they had to. we can help them do that. we can make it a really economically hurt the russians going forward. but sanctions are not the way to do it because they are just going to blow off sanctions. we did the same thing in 2014 when they went into crimea. we sanction them and it didn't bother them at all. there is nothing we can really do that is going to hurt them in the near term. i think you need to attack russia economically. you are not going to do it militarily, you're not going to do it politically, but you can sure do economically. i think that will work. >> shannon: as you say, our european allies have to be on the same page about this. as we continue to watch and i, thank you very much for your time and your service. >> thanks, shannon. >> shannon: brand-new polling shows 81% of voters out there, you are concerned about higher u.s. crime rates. in new york city now mourning the death of another officer gone down last week. former nypd officer fought crime and now he is fighting sinking police morale. he weighs in, next.

in some of her big cities? >> crime is skyrocketing and what we saw last week with two nypd officers ambushed and executed just for wearing their uniform, there is no words for this. but i've never seen it this bad. and it is time for people to come together. we need the politicians to step up and stop all the talk. we need action. >> shannon: so the brand-new mayor they are, had worn the uniform himself. talked about his plans to crack down on crime and gun crimes specifically. but he says this. progressive politicians and activists work in communities of color are voicing their concern that adams new plan will actually rollback recent reforms and lead to more aggressive policing and incarceration. they say that is not the answer. how do you respond? >> will then, what is the answer? we're not going to prosecute crimes and hold criminals accountable, then when does this end? it is only going to get worse. he needs to get his district attorney to do his job and prosecute criminals. and we need to get the judges back their discretion to do their job they were appointed or elected to do. >> shannon: i thought it was interesting that mayor adams, one of the points in this plan, was to get the courts back up and running. they have been limited with covid and all kinds of other things that he wants to see them fully running so that cases can process through. in the meantime, we know that president biden is planning to go up and meet with mayor adams to talk about some of the situation they are in the more broadly. what kind of conversations do you hope to have? >> honestly, he should be coming with how bad things are and after we just lost two heroes. at the end of the day, what are they going to do? they can talk about being proactive all they want, again, if they're not willing to talk about bail reform changes and get the district attorney to do their job, and what is going to change? you want the police to go out there and make arrests and be proactive. and they are arresting criminals and some these criminals are back on the streets before we are doing done doing paper work. >> shannon: how is that impacting the morale which i know is a main concern for you now of officers were walking every day into this? >> it is terrible. police officers morale is at an all-time low. when you think about it, we risk our lives every single day and night. weekends. holidays. we miss family functions. we miss her children sporting events. to risk our lives for strangers. and we are treated like the bad guys and girls. the world is upside down and something has to change. it is not right how we are being treated to demonize. >> shannon: and i know my late father was a law enforcement officer and i knew the feeling is always that the person who wants a bad cough of the beat is the good cop and that is the vast majority of you guys. men and women. we are grateful to you for what you are doing out there amidst very difficult odds these days. thank you very much. >> thank you for having me. >> shannon: the super bowl lvi coming to los angeles and a couple of weeks. there are those are accusing local officials are trying to save face as cleanup crews are clearing out homeless encampments around the stadium. jonathan hunt has that story for us tonight. good evening. >> shannon, this was just a standard cleaning up of a randomly chosen homeless encampment according to officials here and pure coincidence that i happened to be close to sophia stadium. the site of the super bowl and a little over three weeks. cleaning crews and police moved in this weekend moved out many homeless would settled in the encampment just a couple of miles from the stadium. which, again, coincidentally happens to be on route to the airport to the stadium. here is how one homeless man from the cayman viewed the action. >> just aim the camera elsewhere. like, don't aim at the homeless people if you don't want people to see l.a. like that. >> officials dispute the narrative that they are trying to hide l.a.'s homelessness crisis from the tens of thousands to distend on the city for the super bowl week. the california department of transportation, caltrain, issued a statement saying in part, "caltrain responsibility is to ensure the safety of the traveling public and to protect and maintain california's highway infrastructure. the department's quote and coordinating with local departments to provide outreach and support. but merely to move that as many of the homeless who were cleared out this week said they are just going to walk to another encampment and set up there. on the face of it, shannon, it certainly looks like the city of l.a. is merely putting a super bowl band-aid on a gaping social wound. shannon. >> shannon: there is a lot going on out there. thank you very much for that report. and we want to get you to some good news before we say good night. following sunday's exciting playoff game, the kansas city chiefs just beat the buffalo bills narrowly. thanks to the sheep stomach chiefs showing they have big hearts by noting money to buffalo children's hospital in the fund-raising spirit of bills quarterback josh allen. she is has raised more than $255,000 for the children's hospital where alan has very strong ties. the sign of goodwill was organized in a chiefs fans facebook group. how about that?
