Insurrectionists. More than 12 Million people in the region could be hit with more flooding tonight. Welcome to our viewers in the United States and around the world. Im jim acosta, and youre in the situation room. And lets get right to the cboe crisis, and cnn national correspondent nick watt. Nick, as americans face the dire prospect that the pandemic will drag into a third year theres new cdc data on the pace of vaccinations. Reporter jim, vaccination is clearly the way out of this.

The president has credited quiet intense diplomacy for bringing about the truth, and late today as he hosted south koreas leader at the White House he suggested this would be indeed his strategy going forward. One of the reasons why we were able to get the ceasefire in 11 days i didnt do what other people have done. I dont talk about what i tell people in private.
