for fast-acting relief? absolutely free text hello, v0 to three-to-one, three-to-one today >> the whole story with anderson cooper tomorrow at eight on cnn >> closed captioning bronchi by meso book.com we've offered a free book about missile filial month or ten years, called 1808724901, or go >> to meso book dot com >> you're live in the cnn newsroom. i'm jim acosta in washington. good evening. tonight. >> a russian human rights group says more >> than 400 people have been detained while trying to more russian opposition leader alexey navalny all across russia from moscow now to st. petersburg, russians are gathering to honor the life of the man who stood up to russia as vladimir putin navalny's family is calling his death a

murder and demanding russian officials hand over his body immediately. a growing number of countries, including the us, are blaming putin president biden saying this tonight >> no matter is he's responsible. whether he ordered her drinking is responsible circumstances reflection of who he is cannot be tolerated >> and cnn chief global affairs correspondent matthew chance is in st. petersburg where he filed this report in a city where there have been scores of arrests yeah. >> it's very late. it's very cold. and of course the death of alexey navalny has had a chilling effect on the willingness of people in this city and others across the country to come out and i'm protests, but nevertheless, there have been thousands of people across russia that have violated. the laws essentially in this country to pay their

respects and to give offer their sympathies after the death of alexey navalny. in this city alone more than half of the 400 people who have been arrested so far detained so far were detained here. so it just gets would you a sense of how many people in some petersburg are behind alexey navalny. it's a very relatively liberal city within the context. >> but there have >> been vigils flowers being laid in cities across, across russia and as i say, that human rights group monitoring group saying that more than 400 people have been detained for violating the regulations and coming out to pay their respects this as the whereabouts of the body this isn't navalny is still uncertain arthur miller has traveled to the polar region to a small town where there's a

organ where she was told originally by his penal colony that the body was located when she got there. it's about 1,000 miles from moscow she was told the body is not there. and now the government is saying that the authorities are saying that the initial autopsy on alexey navalny's body was not conclusive. and so they're having to keep that body to carry out more tests. and of course, alexey navalny's campaign and his family are suggesting that they're hiding the corpse to prevent the real reason for his death being uncovered and still no relief in sight for the family and still no resolution really as to what actually happened. what was the cause of death? >> to elect for alexey >> navalny, russia's most prominent opposition leader >> all right. matthew chance. thank you very much for that report. let's discuss more now with retired army lieutenant colonel alexander vindman and his brother retired colonel eugene vindman. he's a democratic congressional

candidate as well. >> alex, let me start with you. i mean your your reaction when we see this video of ordinary russians carrying flowers, just trying to observe the death of alexei navalny getting pulled up off the streets of st. petersburg, moscow, other places your reaction to all that? >> jim, thanks for having us >> on and congratulations on your last show and the weekend. >> yeah. thank you. i >> so you know, it's the way i look at it, frankly, is in contrast a little bit of a historian looking at the way the population has responded in 21, when alexei navalny returned after being there was an attempted assassination, you recovered your returned when he was arrested, there were thousands and thousands of protesters. it was a pretty large scale crackdown. right now, we're seeing frankly a muted response. and that just tells you how far the putin regime has gone in terms of establishing a a police state scaring counting the population

into not protesting, even though there are it sounds based on total evidence from that round of protests, there's still support for the most popular opposition leader to vladimir putin it is their heroism and valor from these folks that are coming out, but it's not in a significant enough manner to really drive any kind of change are threatened. threatened. putin's regime. >> so >> that's not going to be a major event. i don't think based on how putin has been able to cow the population >> i mean eugene, i mean, does this mean that vladimir putin has successfully clamped down on dissent in russia? >> well, i think he has. i mean, we've seen a couple of episodes now last summer with yevgeny prigozhin, there there was a mutiny and population rose up and it was quickly

squashed. and at this point, the population has been very much cowed. and frankly, this is it's a major issue, it's a major concern for americans as well >> and alex earlier this afternoon, we saw the president. he was asked about alexey navalny, and obviously he's putting the blame on vladimir putin. let's listen to that, talk about in the sun i've heard several things. i haven't had confirmed, but the matter is who is responsible whether he ordered her to, he is responsible for circumstances with that affection, who he is cannot we tolerate? i said we would be oppressed. he is paying a price already >> alex, on what asked you, eugene this as well. what is it that the administration can do to get putins attention at this point? >> it is tragic, but also

expected. i mean, just like a mob boss that's party to an assassination, even if he's not the one pulling the trigger is responsible. i think vladimir putin bears the same responsibility. he murdered i was very quick to call them out as a murderer for the death of alexei navalny. with regards to her actions, i hope we show a fraction of the courage that election alexei navalny has shown over the course of his life, coming back after an assassin assassination. i don't know if we're there yet. i just do not perceive the resolve from the european community to make the kinds of investments in their security to double down on support to ukraine, the germans failing to provide a long-range attack ammunitions. the us. we should follow through on what was what amount to tow a red line from the biden administration when he said there would be dire consequences my sense and i've talked to some folks so far is

that there is no action. i mean, if i were in the white house, i'd be generating a list of options that we could undertake with regards to punishing putin. there's a whole bunch of things. >> asset seized he's your end transfer to a to ukraine would be one of the basic ones doubling down on training, make sure that the ukrainians have the best crane force we could actually transfer equipment out of our stockpiles. it would be there's a little bit of risk involved because this is for our own troops, but we could be transferring some weapons out of our stockpile to make sure that the ukrainians don't suffer huge reversals. and of course, maximum pressure on the republicans to show up and vote for supplemental. the president does have the means to recall congress. and compel them to take a vote on this and put, make them put their money where their mouth is and live with the consequence and right now, i'm not seeing the will to do that. i hope we do show some fraction of the courage that navalny has shown no and you jamie, the other pressure point

on all of this. >> what alex said, i suppose could all come to pass, but at the same time, house republicans are responding to pressure from the likes of donald trump, who has said in recent days that putin can do whatever he wants. nato countries aren't paying their fair share or paying their part of the burden for nato is common defense you have this news this past week of russia developing a space weapon that could take out satellites and cause all kinds of chaos. but the other pressure point is there for figures on the right like tucker carlson who had that incredibly fawning interview with vladimir putin so much putin was mocking tucker carlson. i mean, we saw that recent days and then there's this bizarre video of tucker going out doing i don't know. it looks like he's doing putins grocery shopping. i don't know what he's doing, but he's spending time in super worker to show how great life is. but listen to what tucker carlson so it had to say when he was asked about some of this and we'll talk about a new the sign

>> i didn't talk about the things that every other american media outlet talks about why he is those are covered. and because i have spent my life talking to people who run countries in various countries and have concluded the following. that every leader kills people, including my leader. every leader kills people, some kill more than others. leadership requires killing people, sorry >> and here's a video of tucker carlson and a >> russian grocery store. maybe he's picking up some a bag of beats or something for putin. i don't know what he's doing here. it's it's just ridiculous, but i see you shaking your head as we're watching this video, eugene >> yes. i mean, this is outrageous. i think if we think about the timing here you had donald trump last week and basically saying that encouraging vladimir putin to attack our nato allies before that, you had tucker carlson as a sycophant to putin, a dictator. and this week, i mean, on a high, i think is when putin, if he didn't give the order it's certainly very coincidental timing that naval

navalny is, is killed. and this is just weeks before his own election. so i think putin looks at events around the world he looks to see what the environment is like, and he sees a very welcoming environment from donald trump, from a tucker carlson and frankly from the maga side or the republican party in the republican party, mike johnson gave a very sort of weak statement today. attempting to criticize putin, but the biggest thing that he can do is pass the funding bill for our allies. and he's failed to do that. and these are critically important issues. actually, this came up, i just came from a campaign event and we talked about this. the constituents in virginia seventh district care about these things. i spoke to a woman that is the child of hungarian refugees, and she cares about this. i spoke to another woman that's frankly embarrassed by donald trump and

are standing in the world degrading. and so people care about these democratic issues. they care about the pocketbook issues undoubtedly, but they care about the democratic issues and that's why we need to fight hard to get this thing spending bill passed and really fight against this maga, extremist movement, isolationist movement >> yeah. and alex, i mean, as the house skip town putin took another town in ukraine. he's gobbling up real estate in ukraine. as the ukrainians are running out of ammunition right now i'm going to have a lengthy article coming out in the next couple of days on this, but i would say that we are >> facing a unique set of dangerous that probably have emerged over the past couple a week or two the fact that donald trump welcomed and attack on nato has really probably done more to endanger our troops in danger. us national security, than any

recent action. i could think of why do i say that? well, because putin pays attention, putin paid attention to when trump and the republican party was welcoming or cheering for russia and damning ukraine before the war started in february 22, latest phase. right now, he saw the president of united states, welcome from an attack on nato. what does that mean? that doesn't mean that he needs to wait until trump has an office. it means that today, because of the trump campaign and captured republican party, he believes he may have license to attack nato. and the republicans would just sit out too, fearful to challenge, not putin, but trump. and now we are in the world in which russia is shifting its calculations about nato. the viability of collective defense. article five >> and this is >> because of trump he is posing a grave danger today, not in november, not in january. if he wins today by inviting putin to attack us,

for us allies and effect us all right return to retired colonel eugene vindman. and retired colonel alexander vindman. >> both >> of you coming on to have real pleasure. thanks a lot guys are always to jim, always appreciate the time, great conversation, thanks so much. still have former president donald trump attacking the judge who slapped him with another multi-million-dollar fine those time for falsifying business records, he also brought up e jean carroll tonight. we'll bring you that after being told to pay more than $80 million in damages and that defamation verdict all of that straight ahead, stay with us vegas. >> the story of sin city premiere sunday, february 25. they ten on cnn >> next next stop. >> we got >> know going >> next. >> if you pick one, you have time am i keeping you from your

hit to his real estate fortune for falsifying financial documents attacking the judge behind that case and suggesting the current legal system in the united states as a threat to democracy >> we will have no higher priority than ending the weaponization of this horrible legal system that is developed around us. it's a horrible, horrible thing that's taking place. you talk about democracy. this is a real threat to tobacco percy, this judge is a lunatic and if you've ever watched him and the attorney general may be worse, maybe worse. you have a watcher. i will get donald trump's your campaign i will get donald trump. i promise i will get him. she knows nothing about me >> cnn's steve contorno is in michigan for us. steve, what's the latest? >> well, donald trump is speaking behind me right now, wrapping up his speech. and if there's any question whether he would address yesterday's $355 million ruling? against him? well, he answered that

right out of the game, spoke for about 15 minutes and an extended rats going after the american justice system, going after the god you presided over that case, going after the attorney general as you just heard, also attacking the prosecutors down in georgia that overseeing that case have we are seeing this clash donald trump, the defendants, donald trump a presidential candidate in real time where we're seeing these cases backup on the calendar coming right into a campaign events and that is something we're going to see over and over and over again in the coming months. and i'm telling you talking to his subordinates here, they want them that they say this isn't well distraction at all. this is actually getting us more energized and they had seen these attacks on him, his criticisms of them, these judgments against him as further evidence this system is more against him. and the reason why they wanted to see him returned to office chairs >> and steve trump made a not-so-veiled reference to e.

jean carroll after for a judge ordered him to pay her millions, tens of millions of dollars for defamation >> that's right. he didn't mention her by name as you said, but he was very clear who he is referred according to take a listen >> a woman i'm saying go who to hell, ishi, who is the woman? it's so unfair. what's happening in our country, our court system is a mess. what's happening in our country, they have to straighten it out with all now this event in michigan is coming ten days before the michigan primary. we're also just a week away from the south carolina primary, yet he didn't spend much time here talking about nikki haley referencing her only briefly to say he or she was getting quote, decimated did in the polls. otherwise, he spent the majority of the time attacking the american justice system. one after joe biden really setting the stage for a general election fight with this

current opponent. and that worries president biden >> all right, steve contorno, thank you very much. let's discuss with ron brownstein, cnn senior political for the analyst, senior editor at the atlantic ron, it sounds like trump is not, not happy about all of these legal outcomes. but when you do the crime, you got to do the time were paid the fine yeah. >> you know, what he's doing here. has enormous implications not only for this election, but what a second trump term would look like if he, if he gets it, you know, the students of authoritarianism we'll tell you that strong men will break the rules while in office, push against the boundaries of law. and custom and then if when they are out of office and if they are held accountable, they will say that the justice system, the legal system, is being weaponized against them. and that becomes not only a way to rally their supporters, jim,

but as we've seen with trump, it becomes a predicate for arguing that you should do the same thing. if you get back in power, his claims that there is this vast conspiracy of grand juries in multiple states and attorneys and district attorneys in federal attorneys who are all conspiring against him. and that's what's produced his legal challenges becomes the basis for him to argue, well, i am explicitly going to do the same thing. it's a pattern that's been seen in other countries. and that's why his language, portraying the legal we'll system as a threat to democracy is so dangerous, not only for what it means in terms of this election, but what it would mean if he gets control of the justice department again right. >> i mean, he has vowed retribution. he has vowed to use the justice department and weaponize it to his own ends. and so we're getting into sort of orwellian upside down world territory here. and ron, i

mean, trump is really pulling the strings up on capitol hill, tanking the bipartisan border deal. and now potentially torpedoing afford aid to ukraine is he basically the de facto speaker of the house right now? >> yeah, absolutely. and, you know, this week, i think is important to be understood the magnitude of what we are watching with a majority of republican senators voting against the aid to ukraine. the speaker of the house, refusing to schedule a vote on the bill after it passed the senate. anyway. anyway, and virtually no republican in current elective office criticizing trump over his comments. last weekend in south carolina, that invited putin to attack nato members, who were not spending the nato suggestion on their own or mandate on their own defense. from dwight eisenhower or george w bush, there was an

international is consensus in the republican party. it was the dominant view and every republican presidency over that period, most pointedly under ronald reagan, i think obviously under trump, the balance has shifted more toward isolate. isolation is nationalism forces dubious of alliance, dubious of international engagement, dubious of american leadership, of democracies against authoritarian. and i think this week we saw just how far that balance has shifted. and trump's control over party really being underscored this issue. there was a fascinating tweet from first-term republican senator or eric schmitt of missouri after the senate votes this week in which she noted that virtually every republican senator elected after 2018 voted no on ukraine aid. that is a mark of trump's influence and it is something that is going to voters, who in the republican coalition, who have held these reagan, i've views certainly are going to be strained about as this election

goes forward >> yeah. i mean, just in the past week, ron, i mean, >> we do have to put her arms around this if we can't trump inviting russia to invade you know, allies just days later, alexey navalny, the chief opposition leader in russia, is dead. the us intelligence community warning of a possible russian nuclear space weapon and just in the last 24 hours a ukrainian, a very key ukrainian city falls into russian hands as the ukrainians are running out of ammunition and still the house gifts town and does not deal with this issue of ukrainian aid. >> well, look, you know, we were in a position already last september or a majority of the house republicans voted against ukraine aid. now we have a majority of the senate, republicans given, especially given that the senate is traditionally more receptive and support of international alliance than the house and both parties voting against ukraine. a, nikki haley is connecting these dots

criticising trump she posted on social media today that like president biden, she blames putin for navalny's death. does donald trump agree? i don't no, if we heard from him tonight, but i don't think we did. >> doesn't >> sound like a doubt whether we agree yeah. >> more likely to say, well, they've never would have happened if i was if i was president. all of these. and as you just had colonel vindman saying that his comments about nato not only have implications for what he if and when he is president, again but for putin was calculations today there is a study coming out tomorrow that i am writing about from the chicago council on global affairs, showing that for the first time in 50 years, they've been doing a polling about american attitudes about foreign policy. a majority of republicans now oppose an active role for the us in global affairs, but that is not evenly distributed among the half of the party that is most sympathetic to trump that's the overwhelming perspective. the

other half of the party that is less empathetic or are resistant to him still believes the us should play a leading role in international affairs, still supports aid to ukraine and that's why i say, like, if you look at the way the republican primary is unfolding, jim with nikki haley, obviously not commanding a majority of the party, but holding a significant slice of college educated voters, most of whom are part of that, half of the party that is still open to internet, the traditional us reaganite type international role i think this could be his, his open scorn of nato could join things like abortion and questions of democracy in straining his ability to hold those voters in november. if he's the nominee, yeah. absolutely. you have to think that there are some of those republicans, just like we saw in 2,020.20, 22 who are just not going to go down the road of trumpism and putinism as it were. and may decide either stay home or vote for president biden. all right. ron

brownstein, as always, thanks so much really great doing weekends with you, ms you. >> right? thanks so much well, we could do weekdays to will do that as well. run out on the west coast. >> all right. and a quick programming in a different programming note in the new cnn original series, united states scandal, cnn's jake tapper dives into some of the most sensational political controversy appears tomorrow at 09:00 p.m. eastern and pacific. we'll be right back i've done a lot wrong, criminal, none. i don't want you to think that i was taking cash >> latza back there. >> governor rod blagojevich went down in a blaze of infamy charged with plotting to sell barack obama's former senate seat. >> what corruption lies prison. you've acknowledged he lied to the fbi? no, really? yeah. >> they were determined to get me no matter why, let me offer you an alternate theory, united states of scandal >> with jake tapper, back-to-back premieres tomorrow at nine on cnn upon us first day of retirement, marquez
