I am running for president of the united states to lead our great american come back. We ve all been watching for the last fifteen months as russia invaded you crave, but this week we saw something very new wide scale. Attacks on russian soil, even if you never saw you can hear, are moving in the music teenager. Just seems like she is in motion in salt and van power was needed from the new york times. It's the headlines. I'm Annie cry out today, thursday. May twenty facile here's what we're covering serve up. We ve got so much for your though I think we are. We are a kind of melting. The servers which is a good sign

this is shown: gold mocker, I my national political correspondent for the new york times- and this has been a very big weak in the twenty twenty four republican presidential primary I'd like to welcome, given to set us up with a start for the strikes, just I gotta go and on when Think of in IRAN. Dissent is of Florida who, for months, has appeared donald from sort biggest rival formally entered the race. Are you there can eager ass? I think I have said. I know. I think I think you broke the internet and it was a pretty rocky start one. He held his kick off event on twitter and it was a glitch him ass. It was twenty five minutes of whispers and hot mike's and people trying to solve things on the fly. A showed more than a half million people had tuned in but actually

I cut the plug and start over because the whole system wasn't working by choosing to start on twitter. He was trying to make a big splash, but for an incentive this was really an awkward beginning for a candidate who's. Trying to take on The daunting task of taking down donald trump sought how you start is how you finish, and I think this finished really strong. So I think this is great and down we'll make sure that that we come back and do it again this. This is a. This is a great platform. Women. We live like the other platforms, one of them challenges. Verandah santas, though, is that he has an actually have a one on one race with donald trump and that other republican for entering, including senator TIM Scott from south carolina who, on Monday, formerly entered the races.

well he's the lone black republican in the. U S, Senate and he's running on a really optimistic message about the future of the country, and it's one that really feels designed to appeal to those important evangelical voters in iowa who will kick off the twenty twenty four nominating process, and so TIM Scott's entrance and the entrance of other republicans in the coming weeks that are expected, including vice president mike pence, who served under donald trump as well as a few other candidates. They make it even harder for RON de santis to put together the math to top donald trump in the nominating process overall and right now, Donald trump isn't just the front. Runner is a pretty dominant front. Runner he's ahead by as much as thirty percentage points in many polls, but what's been clear in the months leading up to ron de santis entrance into this race. Is that he's the one candidate?

donald trump is most concerned about. He's the candidate he's, given a nickname, too he's the candidate. He attacks on a regular basis and he's the candidate that trump super pac, as already spent more than ten million dollars attacking on the airwaves, and so while broader sanders doesn't have a one on one race with trump. Just yet. As far as trump is concerned, there's one candidate he's most worried about and that's ron Desantis. Here's why also, reporters are covering I'm valerie hopkins. I am a with the new york times covering russia ukraine war. In the last few days, what we ve been witnessing is actually really remarkable. It's the most sustained fighting on russian soil. Since this war began early on Monday morning, report started emerging that belgrade was under attack that's a region along russia's border with ukraine and

hours later, video started emerging of ethnic russian fighter. who are aligned with ukraine, who said they had staged incursion into, and territory, and had actually penetrated about six miles inter russian territory and were holding it and fighting off russian border police and soldiers and members of the intelligence, a pipe, and was blown up near the border, a number of settlements or child and people had to be resettled. Somebody was killed. Thirteen people over wounded, and it was shocking for many people in the russian public to see this be as there have been a number of incidents, even a drone

over the kremlin, but there hasn't been sort of sustained fighting inside the borders of russia and there's a lot that's unclear about this attack. But two groups have emerged to take responsibility for it and they are the free russia, legion and a group called the russia volunteer corps in very carefully curated social media posts, Representatives of these groups talk about being russian citizens wanting to come home wanting to reach red square and the kremlin and to liberate russia from Putin. Meanwhile, the russian government has tried to ignore their messages about russia and paying stem is just being part of the ukrainian army and even refers to them as ukrainians Ukraine itself has denied planning, organizing me attack and has tried to cast this as an internal dispute among russians.

As of Wednesday night, the russians were able to push the members of these groups across the border, but the fact that this could happen actually creates a whole new set of challenges for russia. one- is that the russian army may be forest or may feel compelled to pull troops from the front line and improve its protections on its border, and that could really spreads to It has been ahead of ukrainian counter offensive. That's expected in the coming weeks or months, other one in o- is possibly a political cost for Vladimir Putin, because the fact that it took more than two days to fight off a group of partisans makes the army and the government and all of the institutions that are supposed to protect russian tori look weak its unclear. What might have

in the future. One member of one of the groups involved in a text message to my colleague saying that this was only the first operation. russian territory and the scale of their actions would only increase, but it is clear that these forces, want the russians to feel that they could attack anywhere along the border at any time and they russians to feel the visceral panic that many ukrainians feel of not feeling safe in their own homes. and finally, I'm leslie morris critic of critic near the new york times, and I just found out that the incomparable unconquerable unstoppable untouchable peerless triumphal tina turner

died. She was eighty three, you know she grew up dirt, poor in tennessee. there, a complicated life nets for she met, I turner another architect of american rock and roll they marry, have a really pretty successful career together. Here, there's a whole band, there's tina and the eye gets Ike was the guitarist. and they now just burnt every house down. They played at the job that I mean proud. Mary is like a quintessential example that day the song is operating at this half tempo, really you can hear. I doing is a company met in the background there baritone of is no

and then the song starts- and it's just electrifying, because she just sounded strong in a way that the oh, my god I mean it just leaped out of the speakers in this new the. So this is nineteen. Seventy one when proud mary happens, and they could go on like this, but she an abuse of marriage with ached her and she met it is to get out with her name. By the way, I should say it's very important. She kept tina turner, the name because that's hers and she worked hard for it. She says, and the problem of course is that she doesn't have anything

do with that name and she has to struggle to get club dates to get people to come to these shows and that could have been it but tina turner. She records this album call private dancer. It comes out. Nineteen. Eighty four and the biggest single off the album is called. What's love got to do with it? It's a cover by the way somebody originally sang that song and nobody knows who that is because it's tina turner song now the it's a song that somehow manages to be about tina turner in the ike and tina days. I also was just this anthem liberation,

There is so much experience. In the singing of that song. Meaner, We see. Tina turner is one of a kind one of a kind. once in a lifetime person, and I think the thing that makes her term then made her life so exciting was that it had so many chapters to it. It was such a story of survival of aids, beating of winning of being proud. You have one that it was. You know it was the life that many of us Nobody wants the life, she had everybody Once the life she fought for- and I just feel like.

I don't know it just seemed like a life like that just would never ever end. Those are the headlights, I'm an inquiry out we'll be back tomorrow acts.
