From CNN, I'm Erin Mathieson, with the five things you need to know for Friday, March 27th.
0:07
So after the Senate worked all night to fund most of the Department of Homeland Security,
0:12
accept ICE and Border Patrol, and President Trump moved to pay TSA workers through executive
0:17
action, the question is, how fast will these security agents get paid?
0:22
Show back up to work and get some of these crazy wait times down.
0:25
No surprise, the picture in Washington is muddy at best.
0:29
The Senate package still has to get voted on by the House, signed by Trump, and it's unclear
0:34
exactly when all of that will happen.
0:37
So where does the sleep travelers in the meantime?
0:39
In the case of Diane Drummond at LaGuardia, New York, pissed off.
0:44
Everybody's affected by this.
0:46
Congress needs to do their job, stuff fats in around and mess it up everyone's lives.
0:51
The CNN's Ed Levandera is at Houston's Bush Intercontinental Airport, where he's been
0:56
seeing lines that stretch outside of the terminal.
0:59
So Ed is all that news in Washington helping things there at all.
1:03
The situation here is absolutely not getting better.
1:06
We are seeing even despite officials here at the airport saying that some 32 additional
1:12
TSA staff have been sent to this airport.
1:16
Despite the ICE agents being here, there's still no significant difference in the change
1:21
And what stands out to me is the lengths that people are doing or going to to make sure
1:25
that they don't miss their flights.
1:26
In many cases, they're showing up seven to eight hours ahead of their scheduled flight
1:31
time and just to make sure that they don't miss their flight.
1:35
More news coming up, including some of the big decisions facing President Donald Trump.
1:43
The Iranian Red Crescent says at least 1900 people have been killed in Iran since the
1:50
And strikes across the Middle East continued overnight.
1:53
State media in Iran reported deadly attacks in multiple cities, as Israel promised to quote
1:58
escalate and expand their response.
2:01
Oil prices continue to fluctuate because Iran has basically closed the strait of
2:05
And CNN's Elena Trin says President Trump is now facing a big decision.
2:10
When you look at what the different internal discussions have been, the different draft
2:13
plans for moving forward with this war, you know the ability for them to be able to reopen
2:19
the strait and effectively neuter the Iranian regime's ability to continue this war on
2:25
Almost all of them would require a significant number of ground troops being deployed.
2:30
And that is something that we know the President and many people inside the White House have
2:34
really been wary of.
2:37
Meanwhile Secretary of State Marco Rubio still receives for the first time since the war
2:42
He's attending a meeting of G7 foreign ministers.
2:45
European leaders are expected to call on him to de-escalate the situation.
2:49
Now, President Trump has complained that NATO allies have not stepped up to help in the
2:55
Although some G7 and NATO countries have said they would discuss possible plans to help
3:00
reopen the strait of her moves, Rubio also spoke with Ukraine's foreign minister on the
3:04
sidelines of the meeting.
3:07
Frustration with the Trump administration is servicing across the political spectrum today.
3:12
Some CPAC attendees are voicing concerns ahead of day two of one of the biggest annual
3:17
gatherings of conservatives.
3:18
This isn't what I voted for.
3:20
What I voted for was domestic policy change at home and realistic foreign policy.
3:24
The event is exposing a growing divide between GOP leaders and some of their base as midterm
3:31
CPAC Chairman Matt Schlapp says there will be quote a lot of conversations about the consequences
3:35
of the war with Iran, especially if Republicans lose the House and Senate in the fall.
3:41
Meanwhile, millions are expected to voice their discontent with President Trump's policies
3:45
tomorrow, which also include issues like the war with Iran and higher costs of living.
3:50
More than 3,100 no-kings protests are planned around the country.
3:55

Savannah Guthrie says she'll return to her post at NBC's today's show on April 6th.
4:39
The announcement follows an emotional interview that airs today with her colleague and close
4:45
Guthrie opened up about the impact of the search for her 84-year-old mother Nancy, who's
4:50
been missing now for two months.
4:52
Eighth is how I will stay connected to my mom.
4:59
God is how I'm holding hands with my mom.
5:03
And I won't let sadness win for her.
5:09
Authorities and Tucson still don't have any public leads in the case despite a mountain
5:13
of tips, purported ransom notes and video of a possible intruder outside of Nancy Guthrie's
5:20
Let'll do it for us.
5:21
Our next episode drops tonight.
5:24
I'm CNN tech reporter Claire Duffy.
5:32
This week on the podcast Terms of Service, there's a growing category of products aimed
5:37
specifically at addressing women's unique health needs.
5:40
These tools and services are sometimes known as FEM tech, and they can provide big opportunities
5:45
and benefits, but they can also come with some risks.
5:49
To walk us through all of this, I spoke with Bethany Corbin.
5:52
Bethany is an attorney and CEO of FEM Innovation, where she advises startups, clinicians, and
5:57
healthcare organizations.
5:59
In my opinion, what it really does is gives us a collective language to talk about women's
6:04
healthcare innovation and the tools that are out there so that we can take control of our
6:09
healthcare experiences and know how to advocate for ourselves in a system that's probably not
6:14
been designed to advocate for us.
