>> reporter: thank you, alex. that's one of the questions i posed to the katy school district, how do you define "pervasively vulgar." they declined to answer that question or any other questions that we put in writing. i know from conversations with school staff that i've had, it's been described to them as vulgar throughout the book. these nine books that have been pulled and deemed inappropriate for any grade level, they're all young adult, mostly coming of age stories about teenagers. five of the nine feature lgbtq storylines. and by way of example, while i was researching this story i picked up a copy of "all boys aren't blue" by george johnson, a coming of age book by a black author. there are two pages of out of the 300 pages that describe in one instance the author's molestation as a child at the hands of a family member, the trauma he suffered and how he worked through that. later in the book there are descriptions of, you know, as an adult, losing his virginity and having sex. all these books that have b

alex. >> allie raffa, thank you so much from capitol hill. let's go back to mike memoli at the white house. what's the word? has the call wrapped up. >> reporter: it wrapped up a few minutes ago, just over an hour, president biden and president putin, their third conversation since early december. we haven't gotten any sort of readout from the u.s. side of the call. there will be something of a race here between the white house and the kremlin to put out their version of what happened during this phone call first. we'll also likely see a photo of the president from camp david on the phone with his russian counter part. now, there are some clues of course about what these two leaders were going to be discussing based on the call we know happened earlier today between secretary of state tony blinken and his counter part, sergey lavrov. the russian side, they were waiting for a full response from the u.s. side to the list of sort of demands that the russians had put forward as part of what has been a diplomatic track here. efforts to resolve thi

so alex jones -- alex jones when he was deplatformed from providers, payment processing providers, it has an impact because it's not just about let me give my opinion and it's horrible, it's also about making money to find disinformation machines. deplatforming can be effective and i think we have to be very careful. there are very good guidelines for how to report on miss or disinformation without also elevating it and bringing it into the public sphere in a way that it may not have been before that about mainstream media coverage. i think we need to be careful and this emphasizes why we need independent access to data so we can do the research to show what type of interventions are effective. >> we will leave it there. thank you so much for joining us. thank you for watching. you can see the program again any time by visiting al jazeera.com. for further discussion you can go to our facebook page. you can join the conversation on twitter. for myself and the whole team here, thank you for watching and goodbye for now. ♪ man, voice-over: here at kato restaurant, we try to use a lot o

alex, what is the very latest now? >> reporter: don, this was a night that president zelenskyy predicted would be very difficult. as you noted, he says the fate of ukraine is being decided right now. over the course of the evening we have seen all kinds of gunfire and explosions coming from all different directions. just in the past few moments, as you and i were on the air, we did hear significant, heavy, sustained gunfire coming from the south of the city. i can see it going up into the air. you saw red tracer rounds. this was some kind of heavy machine gun. don, we have also tonight seen the closest explosions yet to the city center, within the city limits. that is coming from the western part of the city, near, we understand, a military base. for now, it does appear that the russians are targeting ukrainian military targets, military installations. of course that could change very quickly, the longer that this drags on. we have also been told that there is significant fighting in the eastern part, just to the east

>> you're right, alex. one of the things donald trump likes to do is the best defense for him is a good offense. so to constantly be attacking those who are's accusers is the way he undermines them and tries to undermine the accusation itself. so for him to say hold on, i'm just about to be prosecuted or indicted. i think it will be contrary to all that he's ever done, because he would not want to give credence to the idea that some grand jury would believe with alvin has put before them. >> do we know anything about alvin bragg's investigation at this point? it feels like we've gotten very little information in and around that. i wonder if that's part of the strategy here. >> i think it is. it doesn't surprise me. letitia james has been very public in her filing, in part because trump has been so obstructionist in sitting for this deposition, so she said i'll put it out there. she filed a brief that showed all of her case saying here's why need the deposition. she used it in the court to ask the judge for

let's begin with alex marquardt. what are you expecting? >> reporter: we are expecting to have president zelensky here on this day of national immunity. this is after president zelensky said today was supposed to be the day of the russian invasion and instead he decreed a day of international celebration. mariupol is a strategic location. we have danyesk down the coast where russia has been backing separatists in their fight against the ukrainians and then we have crimea which is not too far away which they occupied and annexed back in 2014. michael, it is really in crimea where we see the confusion over what russian intentions are. the russians putting out video this morning that claims they are pulling back their troops, they are pulling back their weaponry after exercises have taken place in crimea. they loaded up trains with troops, trains, artillery. those are all going back to the mainland in russia. they're crossing the kurtz bridge which they annexed with crimea. at the same time, michael, we are seeing a consistent buildup. we have

let's get to alex marquardt who is in ukraine with the latest on this. alex? >> john, we have been keeping a very close eye on anything on the cyber front because it would be expected that russia would do something in terms of a cyber attack alongside a potential military attack. for now what we know is that there was a cyberattack on at least two different entities. one is the ministry of defense's website and the other is one of the largest commercial banks called private bank. for now, it appears that this was is known as a ddos attack or a denial of service attack. that means when you go to these websites that they don't work. but it does not appear to be that -- anything bigger than that. let's get some perspective from sean lingis. we don't have fingerprints yet. we don't know who is responsible for this. this is a piece of the putin playbook. what comes to mind and what would you be looking for? >> well, john, it's a well-worn tactic to disrupt access to websites at a time of tension and potential conflict. this has happened before in georgia, the count

and you can watch the full interview with alex, say you're good in our correspondent alex say, you're a shasky social media accounts. so to come for you this hour, russia strikes back planning a german channel from broadcasting us after berlin took our sister, cham. lottie tinney, offer on us intimate long no one else. sure thing wrong when oh, please. just don't a whole new world yet to see power disdain because of the african and engagement equals the trail. when so many find themselves, well, the part we choose to look for common ground. ah ah ah, welcome back, thousands of russian soldiers are now in bella race for large scale military exercise. the 2 nations are moving to bolster thy reliance amid tensions with nato and ukraine. my correspondent constantino to scoff is at the center of the action. ah, while the military maneuvers in valley roads are in full swing and as you can probably see behind my back there, is it tang column that is rolling towards it? firing positions. now elsewhere on this training ground, which is by the way, located next to the bowers polish border. we'r

seth, we are going to go back to alex. this is how it goes with these situations, just had a freeze on his shot from maripol. let me ask you, i know you spent tonight going through the images, some of which are near to where alex is tonight. tell me what you're seeing. >> well, erin, i think what we're seeing is that the russians still have about 105 battalion tactical groups, the 150,000 ground forces that the president talked about today plus another 50,000 bell russian ground forces, plus about 500 combat aircraft within striking distance, plus another 40 combat ships in the black sea. that's a pretty serious force that still surrounds ukraine on three sides. that's what we're seeing. we're not seeing a major decrease at the moment. >> which is obviously very significant, since putin is saying, well, some of my military exercises are done, i'm pulling back forces. there's been no evidence of that yet. president biden is saying the u.s. is able to verify it. alex is with me from maripol, tell me what you're seeing, obvio

we bring on alex ward, national security reporter at politico. alex, good morning. guest: thank you for having me. host: first of all, react to what vice president kamala harris said. is that any new information? did we learn anything new from her talk earlier today? guest: not really. it is the stand the administration has taken this whole crisis. however, this is somewhat more about ukraine, european security, world order, this is about whether or not the nato alliance has weathered, if it is as strong. what she affirmed is this is how big the administration sees it. it is about european security. it is not only about ukraine but order and to affirm that the alliance is strong and stronger then when the crisis began. i think this is more signaling to put in than anything --putin more than anything that you have strengthened your enemies, or perceived enemies. host: why should we care about ukraine and russia right now? is that something we should be concerned about or solely a european problem? guest: it depends on how far out you want to look. in the immediate te

joining me, a member of that committee, senator alex padilla. are you hearing signals or tea leaves of how president biden's meeting with senator durbin and senator grassley so far? >> i'll take the fact that they had this meeting today as a great indicator, not just the chairman of the committee but the ranking member of the committee as well, very biden-esque, to try at least to get this done on a bipartisan basis. great selection of senator jones to be the, quote, unquote, sherpa. senator jones is a tremendous icon himself when it comes to the legal world. a democratic senator from a red state. so i think it's showing the priority, the importance of this pending nomination. >> it's interesting, because i hear you say that you appreciate the bipartisanship that president biden is demonstrating by having both senators, durbin and grassley. as you know, you don't need republicans on board, you don't need republican support to fill this vacancy either in committee or in the full senate. how much thought should the president be putting in to get a

hi alex. the drivers are calling themselves the people's convoy, but drivers and supporters we spoke with they both say this movement isn't just about the drivers. they say this is about putting a stop to mandates that take away from american freedoms. hundreds of people lined the interstate with signs that read no more mandates and legalized freedom. cars decked out with american flags, singing and cheering as the drivers arrived. the convoy stayed overnight at a local pizza shop, which provided free pizza to supporters and drivers. i knew i was here a couple miles up the road because i started seeing all the cars lined up. this is just a feeling that i've never had before in my life. um, i've cried today. i i've i've laughed. i've i just honestly, i've never seen anything like it. the american convoy is protesting mask and vaccine requirements for truckers, and they took inspiration from a similar truck protest in canada . they plan to arrive in the d c area around march 5th with stops in ne
