2:02 am
hours polls open for crucial contests in the race for the white house, south carolina's republican primary donald trump has maintained a comfortable and commanding lead in recent polls, but rival nikki haley and says, she's not bowing out anytime soon. and she's ramped up her attacks on trump in recent days, slamming him for the chaos of as many trials and for not condemning russia's present after the death of dissident alexey navalny. haley also suggested trump can't win in november, here she is don't complain about what happens in a general election. if you don't vote in this primary, it matters and then i know you are well here because you want to see a change in america but what i want to remind you is we can want all all the things to get fixed that we want but if we can't win a general election, we get nothing. >> but recent polls show haley
2:03 am
behind trump in south carolina by around 30 percentage points. now the less haley has vowed to stay in the race through super tuesday on march 5, when 15 states and one territory will hold nominating contests. all right, cnn has a team of reporters covering the primary. cnn's kylie atwood is covering the nikki haley campaign from moncks corner, south carolina. but we begin with cnn's kristen holmes covering the trump campaign from rock hill, south carolina, where he weighed in on the controversy over the alabama supreme court's ruling on in vitro fertilization >> former president donald trump, but weighing in for the first time on the controversial alabama supreme court ruling that embryos, frozen embryos are people saying that he definitively stands behind ivf during a rally in south carolina. take a lesson >> we want to make it easier for mothers and fathers to have babies, not harder. you know that that includes and you saw this who is a big deal over the last few days that includes supporting the availability of
2:04 am
fertility treatments like ivf in every state in america you've been seeing, you've been seeing alabama >> it's been a big story like the overwhelming majority of americans, including the vast majority of republican sir. but it was christians and pro-life americans. i strongly support the availability of ivf for couples who are trying to have a precious little beautiful baby. >> now, trump's response came after president joe biden and democrats tried to link republicans and former president trump to the ivf ruling, saying that it was were linked directly to roe v. wade and trump's role in overturning roe v. wade. now, donald trump, while he might have been definitive about ivf, has been much more squishy on the campaign trail when it comes to abortion, he has tried to walk a fine line between being the architect of the overturning of roe v. wade by his appointment of three supreme cream court justices to the supreme court bench. however, he is also
2:05 am
decided he doesn't want to talk about abortion because he believes that as a political loser and as we get closer to a general election, as it does appear that it's going to be a rematch between former president trump and president joe biden. you can expect democrats to really double down on this issue of abortion. but donald trump will likely have to come up with a new message. kristen holmes, cnn, rock hill, south carolina ahead of the south carolina primary on saturday, nikki haley reminding voters that she believes that they >> deserve better than two eighty-year-olds potentially running for president didn't reminding them that she believes that they need a leader who has moral clarity, making a pitch that we have heard from her time and time again over the course of the last month here in south carolina minor, where she has been busy campaigning with more than 30 events across the state, spending a tremendous amount on advertising in the state, outspending then trump and his allies by $15 and nikki haley also telling them that
2:06 am
it's important for them to show up at the polls tomorrow, even if the voters part typically ones who vote in primaries, they just vote in generals. she's urging them to show up because the stakes couldn't be higher. now, nikki haley has said earlier in the week that she will go on, she'll keep her campaign pain alive on sunday the day after the south carolina primary, effectively, no matter what happens here in the state, but the stakes are incredibly high for her because it is her home state because she hasn't won any of the first three contests in the republican primary contests. and next week is going to be a tremendous week for her as she tries to look ahead to super tuesday, but will have to see what happens here. south carolina. kylie atwood, cnn, moncks corner, south carolina >> earlier, cnn spoke with some hostile and so the professor of government at the uk's university of essex, and she talked about the reasons haley's staying in the race and what could be next for trump's republican rival, lossless line is about saving face that
2:07 am
she's made the claim that she's going to stay in this race for as long as it takes. and that she was someone who came from way behind in the polls, only 2% polling in the beginning of her campaign. and, and she has emerged as the number two in this contest. i do see her staying in it, although i'm not sure what that's going to do, i think what we have to look for is how big this lead is going to be. it could be just a monstrous defeat by donald trump. >> he's ahead in the >> polls over 30 points. >> but she >> might do better than expected. there would be have to be some sort of massive polling error if that was true. >> but if she does >> better-than-expected, she's going to use that to justify the reason why she's she should stay in the race and she's going to keep hammering this idea that if she were to go head-to-head with joe biden, she would probably have a better chance of defeating joe biden than trump would. and that's something that she'll have to connect with with voters, with the problem is in the primaries, of course, the voters are more extreme and
2:08 am
more rabid and more committed to donald trump. >> and we'll have special live coverage of south carolina's primary right here on cnn that starts at 04:00 p.m. eastern with erin burnett and wolf blitzer russia is on the offensive. us aid is in limbo and encouraging news is hard to come by as the war in ukraine enters its third year those air raid sirens rang out in kyiv as russia launched its full-scale invasion on february 24, 2022, unleashing the biggest conflict in europe since world war ii >> now this is >> what it looks like now with a makeshift memorial to fallen ukrainians standing downtown, a number of world leaders are in kyiv to mark the occasion, including canadian prime minister justin trudeau and european commission chief also have on their lion ukraine is short of ammunition, but fighting on saying its shot down a russian spy plane that

2:14 am
thoughts on this sad anniversary. what comes to mind now as we turn the corner into a third year of the war we approach into the second anniversary of large-scale invasion in a very difficult situation, when putin is preparing for a long protracted war and only officially 40% of budget will be spent for for military expenses while military support to ukraine from united states is frozen. and we have been holding back multi-million population nuclear state for ten years already and we have no other choice. we have continued this fight because if i stop fighting, they will be no more us >> the organization you had, it's been documenting war crimes more than 64,000. now i understand in counting and ukraine's prosecutor general is that there are roughly twice as many, 122,000. give us a sense of what you found so far
2:15 am
throughout these two years >> we have into documented at how russian troops deliberately shelling residential buildings, schools, churches, hospitals, and mute his ems. they are taking evacuation corridors. they're torturing people and filtration camps. they are forcibly deported ukrainian children to russia. they abducting robin re-bin and killing civilians in the occupied territories the event ukrainian language and culture in this territory's and the entire un system of pistons security can stop it in terms of trying to stop it. i mean, where is the country in terms of actually prosecuting all of those crimes that you mentioned. ukraine, as i understand, it, has only convicted at it most of those in absentia. so how hard has it been to actually move forward with prosecutions? >> it's hard because we faced with enormous amount of crimes. russia uses were crimes at the
2:16 am
methods of for fear, it's the way how russia tried to win this war with inflicting the immense pain on civilian population. but there is another problem exist. we have no international court who can prosecute putin and his surrounding for the crime of aggression. but all these atrocities, which we are now documenting, its results of their leadership decision too. start this war, we need a special tribunal. >> explain what you mean because you've called for the special tribunal that would on aggression specifically to hold russia accountable. but do you get any sense that there's any international will to do that and would you think putin or anybody who's responsible for these crimes actually be held responsible? or is that it just more of the message that it sends that's important here. >> we need bravery and historical responsibility of political leaders from the world. because if we want to
2:17 am
prevent worse in future, we have to bind your states in their leaders who start such worse in present, it's a common logic especially in situation when the un system is collapsing before our eyes and can't protect people against authoritarianism. and the worse. >> i mean, we're showing just some of the after effects of the war i mean, there's so many cases, so much evidence and then with social media crowdsourcing, a lot of evidence as well. i mean, the sheer amount of information must be overwhelming. how do you how do you cope >> processing all of that? >> it's, very difficult. i still look a proper word to describe what does it mean to to live during the large-scale war? what does it mean to live in constant fear for your beloved ones what does it mean to lose everything which you call normal life? but these dramatic times provide us an opportunity to express the best in us to be courageous, to
2:18 am
fight for freedom, and to help each other you obviously need help in doing this. there has been i think the us has charged for russian affiliated soldiers with war crimes, religiously, beating and torturing a us so there's in germany and poland have also helped collect evidence. what role do ukraine's international partners play in, in helping to shoulder the load here? when large-scale invasion >> started, the international partners told, let's help ukraine not to fail. and ukraine obtained a first two weapons to be able to defend ourselves. and we are extremely grateful. but this is also an explanation why ukraine was waiting for his whole year for the first modern tank why we still have no modern plane and can't secure our sky because there is a huge differences between, let's help ukraine
2:19 am
not to fail, and let's help ukraine to win fast. and when can practically measure this difference in types of weapons in speed of decisions. and the problem is that we have no time, we are dying. the time for us is converted in numerous deaths in battlefield, in numerous deaths in deep prayer, in numerous tests in occupied territories i when i'm talking to you, i can hear the emotion in your voice you know, anger or sadness all so many emotions in what one can understand why. i mean just having to go through this for years and the people that you've had to speak with who have gone through much worse. i mean, just how do you cope with with all of this for two years now? >> the examples so millions of people in ukraine, ordinary people who start to do extraordinary things help us to move on because when large-scale invasion started,
2:20 am
international organizations have their personnel's. but ordinary people remained an ordinary people started to do extra ordinary things. it's where ordinary people who took people out from the ruined cities who broke through the encirclement to provide the humanitarian aid. who helped to survive under artilleries, fire and i don't know how historians of the future we'll call this turbulent times because it's not just to war between two states. this is a border between two systems are retiring is democracy but i know for sure that people in ukraine will be marked in this world history with dignity >> that's a good message stand on woul will leave it there, but good luck in your mission oleksandra matviichuk. thank you so much for speaking with us. it's really and on all of the scene has gathered a list of vetted organizations that are on the ground responding in ukraine. so for more information about how you can help humanitarian efforts go to

code, don't wait, scan the code now and ask about the bosley guarantee. >> the south carolina republican presidential primary tonight it's six on cnn here in the us, there is one more week left of black history month >> and many schools, universities, and educators across the nation are still grappling with increasing the limits on what they can and can't teach about racism and black history. in recent years, that history has come under attack by republican lawmakers across the country. since january 2021, 44 states have
2:44 am
introduced bills and at least 18 have passed laws restricting or banning the teaching of critical race theory according to educate occasion week, only a dozen states require black history in k through 12 public schools. in the last two years, connecticut, delaware, maine, and rhode island have legislated that black history courses or electives be required for more on this, i'm joined by a given reynolds, former speech writer to us vice president kamala harris, and he's also a contributor to the black news and views site, the root. thank you so much for being here with us. so the fact that black history is in the crosshairs, in the culture wars, all these efforts to basically ben black history, what's behind it >> yeah, cam, thanks so much and happy black history month to you for me, black history month obviously came at a time to celebrate the incredible accomplishments and achievements of black americans and as you pointed out at this moment in time, black history is under attack and where i
2:45 am
start when i think about this, is that black history is american history, right? you can't teach or understand american history without teaching, understanding black history. but yet and still, and you allude to this in your question, we've seen unprecedented efforts to restrict the teaching of black history. we've seen 14 states by some counts, enact new restrictions on how teachers can teach black history in the past year alone, 30 states have attempted to do that. and what that means is that these extremist lawmakers, in many cases, the republican party almost exclusively are seeking to restrict the freedom teachers in teaching our nation's full history and restrict them the freedom of students to learn our nation's full history and the consequences of this is that we're seeing teachers in all of these states very unsure as to what they can and cannot say with respect to black history, with respect to race and i think what, what's i just want to stop you there because i'm wondering what's behind this.
2:46 am
what are they trying to achieve here? what's the aim? >> yes >> so i think what they're trying to achieve, i think what we have to do when you look at this issues, you have to realize that these attacks on black history are not happening in a vacuum, right? we see in addition to these attacks on black history, attacks on diversity, equity, and inclusion. and it's so funny because many of these same lawmakers belong to the republican party, the party that claims to be all about patriotism, right? i don't think you can be a patriot. >> if you >> can't fully love and fully see your country for its beauties and its flaws. i think a lot of people will see that hypocrisy and i believe that many of these lawmakers have a very narrow conception of what it means to be an american as a response, we've seen some educators, you know, sort of bypassing schools using live bruise community halls of cultural centers. talk to me about the resistance and whether this could maybe lead to a resurgence, maybe more interested in, in black history yeah that is certainly my hope
2:47 am
and you know, for me, i think the reason why i have sought to ride on a lot of these issues is because i do want to draw attention to them and i want to tip my hat to the incredible educators who i mean, think about it, kim, to be an educator, to be a teacher, right now. and this environment in which teachers, the ability and freedom of teachers to teach their students, whether it's on race, whether it's on gender identity in fact, a teacher in my home county at cobb county, georgia recently was fired and had her firing upheld simply for teaching for reading a book to their students that didn't pass some, that failed some limits. litmus test because of what it said about gender identity so teachers are resisting in this moment, can teachers are not going to, teachers have shown that they will not sit by and let politicians, let politics inform how they can educate their students. and i think we're seeing so much bravery from our teachers, which we've seen throughout history in terms of resisting these modern efforts and i do believe, like you said, kim, that all of this, all of these these were
2:48 am
presses efforts by these extremist lawmakers are actually having the consequence of shining a light on this issue of leading teachers to stand up and resist leading those like me who comment on these issues to do that. and so i take a lot of hope from the fact that even though we're seeing these attacks, that the resistance will be even stronger, will have to leave it. there were really appreciate having you on this very important topic given rentals, thanks so much. >> thanks, kim >> all right. still ahead here on cnn newsroom, things gotten nasty in the nba friday night, the miami heat and new orleans pelicans basket brawl instead of ball, cnn sports, andy scholes joins we live, look at who got bounced from the game. stay with us with so many choices on booking.com. there are so many tina fey as i could be. >> so i hired body doubles indoorsy tina loves it's a luck sweet
