death camps that the built all around poland. so we're remembering the 80th anniversary of the warsaw ghetto uprising as well, and it's just been a really, really emotional, very personal experience for me to see what was going on. to learn that my grandparents were two of them. my father's parents were murdered here at auschwitz birkenau and to get a better appreciation of this history. this history that sadly is so powerful and so memorable. thank you, thanks to wolf for that powerful report, and he will be filing more reports as he continues this very personal assignment in poland. i'm alex marquardt here in the situation room. thank you so much for watching this evening. erin burnett outfront starts right now. outfront next, fox settles 787.5 million, the largest known

defamation settlement involving a u. s media company, and fox, now facing an even bigger lawsuit from another voting company. plus putin's crackdown has just been sentenced to 25 years in a russian prison for speaking out against the war in ukraine. vladimir kara murza wife is outfront tonight. and a 20 year old woman shot and killed for pulling into the wrong driveway. police chief says the gunman showing zero remorse that chief is my guest tonight. let's go, outfront. good evening. i'm erin burnett. outfront tonight 787.5 million. it is a stunning number, and that is the settlement between fox news and dominion. in fact, it is the largest publicly known defamation settlement involving a me company in the united states. and by the way when you look at the value of it for dominion, it is 10 times the value. of dominion voting systems. it's massive anyway. you look at it now. in a statement along with the settlement, fox writes, in part quote, we acknowledge the

court's rulings finding certain claims about dominion to be false. that's it. that's the only admission if you can even call it that of any wrongdoing, and then the next part. well, let you gotta hear this one to believe it. fox continues. quote the settlement reflects fox continued commitment to the highest journalistic standards. well i mean, if you are committed to that $787.5 million , right? i mean, it's all pretty odd. take a listen to yourself to just some examples of these so called highest journalistic standards. electronic voting machines didn't allow people to vote apparently and that whatever you think of it, the cause of it, it shakes people's faith in the system that is an actual threat to democracy. we talked about the dominion software, i know that there were voting irregularities. tell me about that the president's lawyers alleging a company called dominion, which they say started in venezuela with cuban money and with the assistance of smartmatic software. a backdoor

is capable of flipping votes. well, according to the settlement, fox hosts including those you saw there, tucker carlson, engineering, pierrot and others will not have to acknowledge the lies they told about dominion. so that's where this case ends. this is the settlement, but you just heard janine pirro mentioned smartmatic will. fox is now bracing for another potentially damaging and massive lawsuit. this one possibly bigger and it is from the voting machine company smartmatic, which is demanding even more than dominion. $2.7 billion in its defamation suit. in a statement that company's attorney writing dominions litigation exposed some of the misconduct and damage caused by fox's disinformation campaign. smartmatic will expose the rest. all right. danny freeman is outfront live in wilmington, delaware, where he has been following the dominion case. and danny just starting there, right where we are tonight. this is making history in terms of the size. it is a massive settlement. aaron it is making

history. it is a massive settlement, but i gotta be honest. i spoke with one of the lead attorneys for dominion just in the past hour, and he said that the reality of the settlement is that it is pretty straightforward. yes, that's $787 million. yes they found a victory that the court end fox did, at least for the specific lies told in the 2020 election. they have acknowledged that they were in fact lies but again, like you said, no fox town has to go on the air and necessarily take an apology for it or correct the record if you will to its viewers, but i will say i am learning a little bit more about just how that settlement came together today, really? at the 11th hour today, those papers were signed and told just minutes before the judge came out and announced that the parties had resolved this issue. and aaron i just want to paint a picture for you, you know, think about it. we had a jury in this case that 1 30. we were waiting for opening statements to come out. we were waiting for this trial to kick off. the attorneys were ready as well. but then there was that 2.5 hour mysterious. lay where no one was

sure what was going. we were seeing attorneys go back and forth trade notes and then ultimately, the judge at four o'clock today announced that settlement dominion came out and they immediately were heaping praise, taking a victory lap. take a listen to what one of the attorneys had to say. the truth does not know. red or blue for our democracy to endure. for another 250 years and hopefully much longer. we must share a commitment to facts. hmm. but erin, in contrast, while the minute attorneys came out and they took that victory lap, the fox attorneys they did not take any questions from the press day snuck out the back one right through up the street to their hotel. and the only statement they're pointing to at this point. is that statement that you read earlier tonight, erin. all right, danny. thank you very much reporting live from that outside the courthouse in wellington, delaware, and i'm joined now by stephen shackelford. he has a lawyer for dominion who is actually set and ready and i know you were ready.

and i know you wanted to give those opening statements today obviously didn't get a chance. to do so. the settlement ended up being reached stephen, thanks very much for being with me. so let's just start there. i know you had a statement ready? and you were eager to give it. why did dominion settle? ultimately, it's about our client was about dominion dominion has been through a tremendous amount of trauma. uh starting with the 2020 election. largely at the hands of fox, at least initially , and dominion needed justice. we got into this case with two goals, accountability and justice and we achieved accountability when we exposed everything that had been going on at fox news through the discovery process and the motion papers. we had the last couple of months and we got justice for our client for dominion today and what determined the settlement amount. i mean, obviously, i know we're talking 10 times the size of the company, its massive it sets a record. it is, though, right at the mid 100.787 point $5 million about half of what you were seeking. in the lawsuit. so how did you get to the number? well i have one correction, the

company's worth far more than $79 million. they were invested in $79 million valuation in 2018 , but their profits went through the roof. they were worth far more which i was prepared to talk about in my opening today. honestly erin, i wasn't involved in the settlement discussions. i can't say anything about it because i was getting ready to open. right okay. i understand. so you're not able to speak to that specific point, but let me ask you about something else. then in the settlement, which again? i know you're gonna you weren't involved in negotiating it. but the fox news reference to what they said on air which were lies right in the statement, they say quote, we acknowledge the court's rulings finding certain claims about dominion to be false. um that is like a really poorly written sentence for a regular person to understand. it's not a we told lies, and we know it right? it isn't direct. does that. is that frustrating? are you okay with that? well, you know, they're fox had already admitted that they had told lies in the earlier parts of the case in

various request for admission and the summary judgment process . they didn't contest any of it, so they've legally admitted it a long time ago. how it came into the wording they chose in this particular statement. i'm not sure how we got that, but we got the accountability from them. back when they admitted to it as part of the legal process earlier this year, so if you're okay with the wording, i do have to ask you about the on air talent. we understand that they will not have to acknowledge anything on air and it would appear to be business as usual. for all the individuals, well known names involved. why did you agree to that? we'll look through the course of the case. we depose a lot of fox news hosts and executives and we heard over and over again from them that that while they admitted that they knew that all of this was a lie, they said that the time had passed them to do anything about it. the time hasn't passed, they absolutely should go on there and tell the truth to their viewers. that's what this case was about. so it's up to them to do it. so i guess what you're saying is just

that wasn't possible. because they're not gonna do it. they're certainly not required to in this settlement, right? it's very clear that they're not well, look, i think we proved it . we proved it through the through the earlier parts of the case. we prove what they had done. we did our best to make sure that what we proved with publicized so people can see it. but you're right. we can't control what they do on their shows. so you said after the settlement announced that dominion was not done holding people accountable. obviously you're not talking about anchors at fox news because they're involved with the settlement. right? so who are you talking about? specifically, are you able to talk about those names or who those individuals are. well we do have lawsuits pending against other other networks that defame dominion and against a lot of the individuals who are spreading the lies back after the election in 2020 people like sidney powell, rudy giuliani, mike lindell, patrick byrne. others like those those suits are pending, and we intend to

pursue them all the way to the end. so there was a many. obviously you're well aware of this, but one of them. gretchen carlson, a former fox host, who had urged you against settling and gretchen went on twitter. she was very open about it, she said. please dominion. do not settle with fox. you're about to prove something very big. you know, stephen again. i know you weren't involved in all the details of the settlement discussion itself because you were about to give the opening statements. but what do you say to many who say all right, well, you said you proved these things, but the statement doesn't come out and say they lied. they're not going to have to say it on tv. and if you've taken this to trial, you might have achieved that. what do you say to people who share that frustration? well, first i understand the frustration we wanted to try the case to the lawyers were excited about the chance to go through this trial. but what i think people are missing is the trauma that the people have. dominion have gone through for the last 2.5 years as we prepared for trial. we spend a lot more time with these people with employees of dominion in my opening statement, i was going to talk

about one employee who has had to deal with changing gyms because of harassment by people who believe the lies who went to a doctor's appointment. with a new doctor was sitting in a hospital gallon and the doctor. it's all that you worked for. dominion said. oh you work for dominion, the company that stole the election. this is still going on today. these people are traumatized. we didn't you know, they were gonna have to come into court and relive all this again. so today was a very good day for dominion for their employees. all right, steven, i appreciate your taking the time and answering our questions. thank you. my pleasure, all right. and now margaret hoover is with me. former fox news contributor and ben ginsberg, longtime republican elections lawyer. so ben just a legal response. obviously he's saying i wanted to give the opening statement we wanted to do it. dominion is the one who chose to settle when you look through this. you see the massive amount, ben, you see the history making amount. you see the lack of a clear admission of lying and guilt. what do you take away from this settlement itself? i think all settlements end up with a little bit of good and a

little bit of disappointment, and i think this is in line with this. i mean, in the context of things, it's really damaging to those who say the election was stolen, and so in a broader picture beyond the minion, this is an important day, potentially for restoring faith in american elections, and that's a optimistic way of looking at it. so, margaret um in the statement . of course, it's clear. according to the settlement, fox the individuals involved, the people who did this do not have to have any sort of admission of guilt. there's nothing public. so if you're a fox news viewer well, for if you're a boxer, guess what if your affectionate viewer you won't even know this happened because they're not covering this? they didn't cover the cases that happened. none of the anchors. we're talking about this and they're not going to cover that. they're going to write a $787 million check tonight, focusing with the lawyer on the statement from fox news about how dominion had falsehoods. okay that is just a classic fox news deflection. there is no apology that is

going to be demanded of fox. and so the narrative will continue to be written by fox about fox and well for their viewers. okay so you're covering it. other news organizations are covering us. but for the fox news viewership, they're not gonna hear about it. they're going to continue to have to the extent that it's discussed fox talk about it in their terms and boxes going to talk about how dominion lied to and so that's right. and really the only thing you had today was how it occurred to, of course, used with the washington post and at who now works for fox news came on and said this on air, i'll play what people saw today. i do have a statement from fox neil. we're pleased to have reached a settlement of our dispute with dominion voting systems. we acknowledge the court's rulings finding certain claims about dominion to be false. the sun won't reflects foxes continued commitment to the highest journalistic standards. so. there's the line, which i was talking about with the lawyer,

right, but that's that's the spin on it. and that's actually in the settlement. you know, it's outrageous here. here's the thing that i think it's important to keep in mind and by the way, how encourage used to work for cnn before he went to he was a media reporter. he was a much more honest figure. i think when he was at cnn before he went to fox news, they put him up there to read the statement. he didn't even opine about it. but i think it's important to keep in mind. and at the time that i worked in fox news was when roger ailes ran the ship, and roger ailes ran the ship for a good 20 years, he created an enormously marketable profitable, uh, media entity through positive polarization. you put americans against each other, and then you profit off of it, um the reason. that he sold the fox news was needed in the beginning was because the mainstream media and cable news networks like cnn were full of people with unconscious bias. and so they were lying to their viewers. maybe they weren't meaning to, but they just had their premise sees towards

thinking a certain way and then shaping and editorializing news . and that's why fox news was necessary. i mean, how far one has fallen. $787 million is an admission a legal admission of lying. this is a cable news organization that became an organization that lied and lied and lied so that it isn't dramatic irony. it is. and ben. i guess the question here to margaret's point and again, you know to me what is in the statements matters because people want things in english and words do matter. but numbers also really matter and even paying $1 in a case where accused of lying being abandoned . is margaret right? as she frames it? this is an admission of guilt, the amount of money here yeah, absolutely. it's a gob smacking amount of money. what it says. it's the what facts did was really, really bad and unconscionable. this settlement will also set a real

precedent for those other cases . mr shackelford said that they had and fox you know you can't can't underestimate the effect that this is going to have on fox. internally whether they say it externally or not. they probably won't but for a matter of their professional pride and ego, donald trump put him in this impossible position for which they have now paid a greater pride. ben i just want to ask one other really quick question on this smartmatic, which i said, is asking for even more money just from a legal perspective does their settlement for $787.5 million, said any kind of a precedent for smartmatic, which is asking for what 2.7 billion i i'm not sure that it sets a precedent in a legal sense, but holy cow if you're smartmatic, your thinking, you're going to get a settlement and faxes thinking what we paid $787 million, and now we're going to have the same

bad stuff come out in a smartmatic trial. so it's not a legal precedent, but it sure is a policy president. alright. well thank you both very much and next new video of the arrest of a russian activist with ties to the jailed wall street journal reporter as the wife of the top putin critic who was sentenced to 25 years for criticizing putin's war. yesterday speaks out right here next, plus the man charged with shooting a black teen who showed up mistakenly at the wrong house surrenders to police. could he use stand your ground as a defense? and incredible pictures out of new york city tonight, where there has been a deadly parking garage collapse. we're gonna bring you the very latest . erin burnett outfront brought to you by voya well planned, well invested well protected.d. there's some things that go workplace benefits and like your retirement suits with voya,

sound the alarm on gorshkov itches arrest. so now this latest arrest comes almost three weeks to the day that herskovits himself was arrested today for the first time since then we saw him in public. he appeared in the russian courtroom, which meant that he was inside a cage . this was a glass cage. there. he is dressed in a shirt and jeans. that's all we saw of him. at today's hearing, a judge rejected the americans request to be placed under house arrest, which means that he is going to continue being locked up inside of one of russia's most notorious jails. the lefortovo prison. earlier we spoke to the fiancee of another journalist who was held there at lefortovo even saffron off. he was arrested in july. 2020 accused of disclosing state secrets. so for months he was held at lefortovo, then he was sentenced to 22 years. his fiancee tells us that the conditions there in that prison where evan gorski, which is tonight are brutal. it's a terrible place, actually, um. the light is on the whole

time. they have a shower once a week. um rooms there are it's like maybe three or four m. um they have no opportunity to walk . normally they cannot see son were to feel winds. um in the fourth of a nobody usually has some dates with their families or some phone calls with their partners or families. just to think about that. and keep in mind that many at that prison, you know, like ceviche haven't even been convicted yet, right? this is how they're treated for the months and years prior to any sort of a trial, and you can only imagine the conditions that they then face afterwards. something that one top putin critic is experiencing horribly tonight. vladimir cameras up. he was sentenced to 25 years in

prison in russia yesterday, his crime was speaking out against putin's war in ukraine and joining me out front. now if you have any cameras or vladimir cameras as wife and jenny, i'm glad to see you again. i'm so sorry about the horrible circ*mstances that we have to talk in. now have you even been able to process what has happened here? what this means for your family. hello, aaron. it's good to see you again. um well, you know, um, i think i haven't been able to process what's happening for a while. i don't. um, i don't think i can afford processing all of it right now, because if i do i am afraid that i will collapse. i will fall into a million pieces and i understand that i cannot afford this. i have to fight on. so i leave by the quote of winston churchill, who said if you go through hell, keep going. you know you last time we spoke

, you talked about what your husband has suffered the health issues that he has gone through since he was twice poisoned. and yesterday when i spoke to his attorney, vadim he told me that the sentence amounts to a death penalty to vladimir because he's so worried about the health challenges that he faces. do you share this fear? unfortunately i do light america's health has deteriorated drastically in detention. for years he'd been able to keep those polling neuropathy symptoms. that loss of feeling in his extremities through physical exercise about a year in pretrial detention, and then sometimes that he spent in sultry confinement were enough to bring not only bring back those symptoms for them to spread to his right side, so he is now losing feeling both his feet. and his left hand this diagnosis falling europa. these can lead to paralysis. and i

understand that in in a russian prison, he will obviously not have access to any problem medical care. so i am afraid that the russian authorities are trying to kill him yet again for the third time in eight years. jenny, what else do you think could be done? i mean, i know that he is a dual citizen, russian and british. um do you? is there more the uk can do. i mean, what more could be done at this point? um he's also a green card holder in the united states and i have been trying to get him determined as unlawfully detained. because onto the levingston act. he um he while he meets all the criteria um, i believe that it is very important for the free world to stand with freedom fighters alike. um all those people who are standing out against the

regime and risking not only the freedom but very often their lives, and i believe that if that advocacy it could be conducted in the soviet times when a relationship when the relationship with the soviet union was obviously far from being a very good it can definitely be done now because when it becomes a question of life and death, everything should be done to save a person's life. yes indeed you have jenny. i'm i'm grateful to be able to speak to you. my thoughts. i know everyone's watching also with you and your children, thank you. thank you very much. next. a young woman is dead after accidentally pulling into the wrong driveway , the lawyer for the suspect now trying to change the narrative, so what happened? the new york sheriff who was investigating that case is next. plus i'm going to talk to the first democrat in congress to call for senator dianne feinstein to step down. this is republicans shut

free reputation. report card at reputation. defender dot com or call 1877866 85 55. i'm jeremy diamond at the white house, and this is cnn. tonight the missouri man charged with shooting a black teenager is now out on bail. the team ralph charles was going to pick up his siblings when he mistakenly went to the wrong address the 84 year old man telling police that he fired at the team through a locked glass door without exchanging any words with him. it comes as an attorney representing girl's family says a bullet penetrated the team skull and it's a miracle. they say that he survived. josh campbell is outfront. defendant is charged with armed criminal action 84 year old andrew lester

surrendering to authorities after allegedly shooting 16 year old ralph jarrell, a black teen shot by a white homeowner in missouri, reviving the fierce debate over stand your ground laws looked out of the door. he saw a black boy i need clear for its life. and that's something that we've heard a lot in american jurisprudence accidentally went to the wrong address to pick up his siblings . probable cause document says lester believed it was a break in that he shot twice within a few seconds. in missouri, a person may use physical force if he or she quote reasonably believes such force to be necessary in self defense. problem for this defendant is the lack of any actions on the part of the victim who got shot. it would appear to be threatening at least 28 states have some kind of stand your ground law on the books providing legal protections for those in danger. prosecutors across the nation have aggressively pursued charges against those they believe have used weapons without facing an

immediate threat. saturday in new york 20 year old kaylin bilis was fatally shot by a homeowner after she and friends accidentally turned into the wrong driveway. clearly no threat from anyone in the vehicles. kevin monahan was taken into custody and is now charged with second degree murder. but his attorney told cnn he was in fear after seeing multiple vehicles speeding up his driveway. mark and patricia mccloskey drew national attention in june 2020 claiming they were defending their missouri mansion, brandishing guns and pointing them at protesters demanding police reform. they pled guilty to misdemeanor charges. rittenhouse a 17 year old who fatally shot two protesters in 2020, a fear for his own life was key to his defense. if i would have let mr rosa von take my firearm for me, he would have used. it killed me with it in probably killed more people was ultimately acquitted , but perhaps most famously tested florida's stand your

ground law, which like missouri , permits the use of deadly force to prevent imminent death or great bodily harm. that's unique law because it says to a potential shooter don't worry about, you know, running or turning away or backing up. you can shoot in 2012 neighborhood watch captain george zimmerman shot and killed 17 year old trayvon martin, who had just left a local convenience store. zimmerman called 911 to report a quote suspicious person and ignored the dispatchers warning not to approach the individual, ultimately getting into a confrontation and shooting martin in what zimmerman described as self defense. because it help me help me. i felt his arm going down to my side. and i just grabbed my firearm shop. he was tried and acquitted by a florida jury circuit in a. now aaron, the man accused of shooting 16 year old ralph yoro is now out on bond. cnn is attempting to locate his attorney for comment. we will have to wait and see how he

pleads and whether he claims self defense, of course, in claiming self defense. the next logical question is defense from what has his attorney told cnn, the attorney for the whole family, it's not illegal to wring someone's doorbell. erin thank you very much. and turning to that tragedy in upstate new york a significant change in tone tonight from the lawyer of the man accused of killing the 20 year old woman who mistakenly drove onto his property, kevin monahan, you see him there. he's accused the lawyers saying the woman and her friends created an atmosphere of quote menace. on the man's property with multiple vehicles, revving their engines and going up the driveway, they say at a high rate of speed, this is quite different from what the lawyer had previously told a news outlet, which is quote my preliminary view of this case is that it was a series of errors, which resulted in a tragedy outfront now jeffrey murphy, the sheriff in washington county, new york, where kaylin bilis was killed, and obviously you know more about this than anyone, sheriff and everyone wants to hear whatever you're able to share with us. i know that kevin monahan, right, who was accused

his lawyer says. multiple vehicles were on the property, and they're now saying that this was menacing that monahan felt this was menacing. what can you tell us at this point about the circ*mstances surrounding this terrible shooting? well, i think it it obviously was a mistake for the kids to, uh, to go into the driveway. that's about where that ends. um i think if anyone who knows the area it's a rural area, it's a dirt road dirt driveway. um, but you know, going up the wrong driveway by mistake is certainly not grounds in new york anyways, to be shot at ah, these were two vehicles in a motorcycle. with young adults that we're looking for a house, which actually was very close to the one that they drove up to mr monahan's, uh, and by all accounts, including um, you

know, witness statements from people in the vehicle and neighbors. they weren't in the driveway for a very long time at all before they realized it was the wrong house, and they were in the process of leaving, which makes this case obviously a little different. um and i don't know how you could medicine one if you're leaving the property, so one vehicle left the motorcycle left and then the vehicle that our victim uh, young caylee caylee gillis was in was turning around to leave when the shots were fired. so uh , you know, there was clearly no threat from anyone in the vehicles, especially when you take into the fact that the vehicle was on its way out, and that's supported by, uh, you know, both witness statements and forensic evidence that we have. well that's very significant. what you're saying? i mean, that that not that not only that they did drive up that there were two vehicles and a motorcycle but that you're saying two of them had left and that the car katelyn polantz was in. it was turning around to

leave. right so this is at the end of it. they were they were leaving. certainly not driving up or threatening when this happened just to be very clear about what you're saying on on the timing here. that's right. there was from all indication from witness things. um there was no interaction between mr monahan and any of the vehicle occupants at all. there was no doorbell wrong. there was no pounding on any doors. it was simply pulling into the driveway , realizing they were in the dry as wrong driveway. yeah trying to negotiate these dark roads you know, at night with limited self cellphone service and gps, so by the time you know, they found out where they were, and they were in the wrong place. they try to leave. and that i think is the key point. oh, you say that monaghan has not shown any remorse about this. what more can you tell me about how he's exhibiting no remorse or how he's behaving now. well i

think that started at the scene . you know, when patrols first arrived at the scene, they tried to make contact with mr monaghan in the house. um he didn't. he didn't really want to talk to anybody. he did talk to the 911 center here on the phone. but when patrols asked him to come out of the house with his hands up um, you know, clearly this was a tactically. this was a bad situation for our officers that were on the scene. it was a house that was high up on a hill . um there was a long driveway up to the house. mr menand had several floodlights that shined out into the yard and down the driveway, so in approach to the house before, it would have been very dangerous. by any law enforcement members. so we tried to get mr monaghan to come out of the house and raise his hands . he refused to do that. at one point, he didn't come out on the porch where we could yell back and forth our officers. good yes

, but, um, he made a decision to stay in the house. he wouldn't throw out finally called his attorney from inside the house and then through the attorney were able to talk him into coming out and surrendered. murphy i appreciate your telling me and sharing all this with us. thank you. you're welcome. thank you. next on capitol hill. democrats plan to get senator senator dianne feinstein replaced because she's out indefinitely and currently holding up a dozen biden judicial nominees that just failed democrat who was the first to call for feinstein to step down is next ron desantis racking up even more presidential endorsem*nts, even though he has not announced he's running. how to grow more vibrant flowers. step one. feed them with miracle gro, shakee ad feed. that's it. miracle gro, you need to know to grow. to

everyone we do begin with breaking news. joining us now are two lawmakers from different sides of the aisle live in ukraine, dr sanjay gupta and soe

muscles. absolutely free. text f a i r 2321321. natasha chan in los angeles. and this is cnn. new tonight. senate republicans blocking democrats from temporarily replacing california senator dianne feinstein on the judiciary committee. this is the 89 year old feinstein remains absent from the senate nearly two months after getting shingles, missing nearly 60 votes and leaving 12 judicial nominees of president biden waiting to be confirmed. that's the real world implications of this and the majority leader, chuck schumer, even with that is refusing to get behind calls for feinstein to step down from her seat. look i spoke to senator feinstein just a few days ago, and she and i are both very hopeful that she will return very soon. outfront, now the

first democrat in congress to call for senator feinstein to step down congressman ro khanna. he is supporting congresswoman barbara lee in the 2024 senate race for feinstein's seat, as she has already said she will not run again. so congressman, do you think senate democrats were in denial, frankly, to ever think that republicans would help them temporarily replaced senator feinstein on the judiciary committee? when that means that all of a sudden you get you know these dozen biden judicial nominees immediately passed. you know, i was hopeful when senator feinstein suggested that, but i was very skeptical that senate republicans would go along. let's understand the stakes here. you've got a texas judge who's taking the abortion pill away from millions of women and relying on junk science. you have donald trump, who has stacked the judiciary with people who don't have a regard for the rule of law. and president biden has done an extraordinary job nominating judges getting more judges of his predecessors and it's being

slowed down on the judiciary committee. it's honestly nothing personal. we just need someone there who can break the votes. and i, as you pointed out, you've got at least a dozen 12 judicial nominees and 60 votes have been missed, right? i mean that these are the real world implications of what's happening here. now here's the thing, congressman, you've come out and you've said what you think needs to be done. you haven't minced words. many of your colleagues have have not done that they have gotten behind senator feinstein. they said that she does not need to step aside and she shouldn't face calls to resign. here are a few of them. in america. we don't tell people to resign because they got shingles. she was elected. she served admirably. other members been gone for a year or more times and no one called for the resignation. senator should be able to make their own judgments about when the retiring and when they're not diane will get better. she will come back to work. the decision about whether somebody should resign, wrestling that individual themselves. i don't think she should be forced out. what do you say to them? i have a lot of

respect for senator manchin, but his saying that they've been senators have been out for a year and they aren't being called upon to resign shows exactly what's wrong in the institution. i don't know any other job where you can not show up for a year and expect to hold your job and the reality here is this is something people have known about senator feinstein for about over a year. it's not just the shingles. uh the situation is not a great one, and i hope she'll do the dignified thing and step aside and have someone else the governor can appoint a caretaker so we can get our judges confirmed. and when you say that it's not just singles. are you referring to anything specifically, i don't want to be speculating people can read the public reporting. but what i do know is that she hasn't been able to fulfill her duty. a lot of people are speaking privately about why that's not the case, and it's time that we have deference to the american people . more than deference to a

senator. i mean, i get how washington works. you're not supposed to speak up on these things. you just keep your head down. you keep rising, eventually become a committee chair in the cabinet. no one wants to make enemies of powerful people. senator feinstein is powerful. she has a lot of allies, but at some point we have to ask. what does the urgent moment call for? you can't go around giving speeches , saying abortion? it needs to be legal that they're taking away all women's rights and be passionate about that, and then not speak out on something we actually can do, which is confirmed judges. right and those judges says as you mentioned, right, 12 of them not moving ahead because of this. congressman. thanks very much. i really appreciate your time. thank you, erin and next trump on the attack tonight, tearing into florida governor ron desantis, accusing him of getting quote absolutely destroyed by disney and update tonight from officials who were scrambling to try and find people alive after a deadly garage collapsed in new york.

threatened to build a competing theme park or even a state prison next to disney after the company thwarted his plans of a state takeover. so harry antin is outfront so harry trump never shied away from an opportunity to hit desantis, right. i mean, that's that's his favorite target right now, and it looks like republican voters like the fighting spirit think they really do like the fighting spirit? you know, i've been on the program with you over the last month showing, you know trump's primary poland. his lead over desantis has been growing. but there has been the argument right that. okay maybe with all the indictment news and all that type of stuff that maybe his general election outlook as republicans would see it would worsen right. they see him as less electable. but in fact, this fighting spirit has actually made republicans seem to think he's more electable in the general election. we have this great trendline essentially shows that you know, back in november only about 35% of republicans believe that trump gave the gop the best chance to win the general election. then you see that jump up to 42% in february, and now it's 49% so this isn't just about agreeing with trump on the issues. it's

also that they do see him as the best chance to actually beat joe biden in november of 2024, which is interesting. that's how they see it. and look as the polls come, you know the news on desantis and disney is fast and furious, right? don't necessarily keep up with where people are at this moment nonetheless. when you look at a general election situation is the gop base right about their bet on trump. they are not correct. so if you look at the general election polling you look nationally. what do you see? you see a close race between biden and trump in a close race between buying and desantis, but desantis actually leads by a point. while trump is actually trailing biden by two points, so this is a relatively small difference, but it is a large difference given how close elections are in this country. the fact is that this point and we've seen it over and over and over again. ron desantis simply put runs better in the general election. yes although it is fascinating to see you know, as you point out, one point is a big big difference in american politics. but we got a long way

to go and so much we don't know. one of the things we don't know is independent voters right and they now itself identified. that's the biggest chunk correct where they see where they land. this is where we see the largest difference right if republican voters love donald trump independence, on the other hand, for more lukewarm, so look at the general election matchup between buying and desantis and biden and trump among independents, we see desantis with this large nine point advantage. but look, biden and trump are tied at this particular point, and the fact is, there are more democrats self identifying the country that republicans so republicans need need to win among independents. desantis is doing it at this point, but trump simply isn't that's why he's trailing in the general election polls. while desantis is slightly ahead, interested to see as this disney stuff progresses, what changes if anything, it's all fascinating. okay harry. thank you. thank you. coming up on a c. 3 60, the wall street journal's moscow bureau chief joins anderson to talk about evan gorski appearance in a russian court today and that is coming up at eight. in the meantime, next officials with new information tonight on a deadly garage collapsed in new york that is
