TONIGHT, POLICE HAVE INTENSIFIED THIS CHAOTIC MANHUNT. >>> SCHOOLS, SHUTDOWN, TOWNS, ON EDGE. WE WILL TAKE YOU LIVE. >>> WE HAVE SHOCKING ALLEGATIONS FROM NEW LAWYERS, TAMPERING WITH JURIES. THEY ARE TAMPERING AND SITTING IN PRISON, TRYING TO GET A NEW TRIAL. >>> CONFEDERAL MONEY IS DRIVING UP. WHAT THAT MEANS FOR MILLIONS OF KIDS, AND HOW THEY KEEP THEM SAFE AND >>> IS A SOCCER COACH GIVING THE FALL FOR HIS BOSS? ONE OF THOSE MEN IS OUT. ONE OF THEM IS NOT. AT LEAST NOT YET. WHAT WE ARE HEARING TONIGHT FROM FANS. >>> DISTURBING MOMENT AT THE U.S. OPEN. A FAN WAS TAKEN OUT AFTER A GERMAN PLAYER ACCUSED HIM OF USING THE MOST FAMOUS HITLER PHRASE DURING THE GAME. BUT WE ARE HEARING FROM THE TENNIS ASSOCIATION LATER IN THE SHOW. >>> TONIGHT, PLEASE ARE WIDENING THEIR SEARCH FOR AN ESCAPED KILLER IN PENNSYLVANIA. THE MAN YOU ARE ABOUT TO SEE, IS A NEW PICTURE. THIS IS A POPULAR, LOCAL SPOT. IT LOOKS LIKE HE HAS MORE STUFF WITH HIM. BACKPACK, DUFFEL BAG, HE IS ACCUMULATING THINGS. THIS STARTED FIVE MILES FROM THE PRISON HE WAS AT. PLEASE THOUGHT THEY HAD HIM CORNERED IN A SMALL AREA. YOU CAN SEE THAT IN THE CIRCLE RIGHT HERE. THEY ARE MAKING PROGRESS. >> THE PRESSURE THAT WE HAVE BEEN PUTTING ON HIM IS WORKING. WE HAVE SQUEEZED HIM HARD ENOUGH. THIS IS OVER A PERIOD OF A FEW DAYS. I OBVIOUSLY WISH WE WOULD HAVE BEEN ABLE TO CAPTURE HIM WITHOUT GETTING THROUGH THAT PARAMETER. IT IS ALSO NOT SHOCKING. IT IS DARK. THERE IS A LARGE AREA. IT IS JUST DIFFICULT TERRAIN. >> DIFFICULT TERRAIN, HE SAYS. THIS CHAOTIC MANHUNT, STRETCHING IN TODAY'S EXPERT AT SHUTTING DOWN TWO SCHOOLS TODAY. RIGHT AT THE START OF THE BAPTIST AND BACK-TO-SCHOOL SEASON. RIGHT ON THE FRONT OF THE AIR, WE HAVE LEARNED THAT THIS ESCAPE IS NOT THE FIRST, OR THE LATEST IN THIS PRISON. ACCORDING TO COURT DOCUMENTS OBTAINED BY NBC NEWS, THE SAME PRISON ESCAPE HAPPEN IN MAY, BY A PRISONER CLIMBING THE WALL, AND CALLING HIMSELF OVER THE ROOF. DANELO CAVALCANTE, IS DESCRIBED BY POLICE AS EXTREMELY DANGEROUS. HE IS ACCUSED OF MURDERING HIS EX-GIRLFRIEND IN FRONT OF HER KIDS. WE ARE NOW BEEN JOINED IN CHESTER COUNTY, PENNSYLVANIA. WE HAVE THE LATEST LOOK THAT POLICE HAVE AS THIS ESCAPED KILLER IS RUNNING AROUND. THE PERIMETER IS GROWING. GIVE US A SENSE OF WHAT IT IS LIKE ON THE GROUND. >> Reporter: HEY THERE. THIS IS STILL A RAPIDLY DEVELOPING SITUATION. THE PERIMETER CONTINUES TO SHIFT AND EXPAND. IT HAS CONTINUED TO SEE NEW SURVEILLANCE IMAGES POUR IN. YOU MAY BE ABLE TO WITH THE HELICOPTER. THEY HAVE LOCAL AGENCIES. AT ALL LEVELS, THEY ARE CONTINUING TO POUR IN. THIS IS THE PICTURE OF DANELO CAVALCANTE. 120 POUNDS, FIVE FEET TALL. IN THE WORDS OF POLICE, THEY SAY HE HAS NOTHING TO LOSE. THAT IS ELEVATING THE URGENCY IN THIS SEARCH. AS YOU MENTIONED, HE MURDERED HIS GIRLFRIEND. HE WAS JUST SENTENCED TO LIFE A FEW WEEKS AGO. HE HAS BEEN ON THE RUN FOR SIX DAYS. THE COMMUNITY HERE HAS ABSOLUTELY BEEN ON EDGE. POLICE AND OTHER AGENCIES, ARE SENDING OUT REVERSE 911 CALLS TO TENS OF THOUSANDS OF RESIDENTS HERE, WARNING JUST HOW DANGEROUS HE IS. HERE'S MORE. >> HE HAD A STATE TROOPER ON HIS DECK WITH HIS GUN. HE WAS STAYING UP ALL NIGHT. HE WALKED THE PERIMETER OF OUR BACKYARD. >> Reporter: THIS IS AN AREA I'M VERY FAMILIAR WITH. I GREW UP IN THIS AREA. IT IS SUBURBIA. WE ARE NOT FAR FROM WILMINGTON. PLEASE MENTION THAT IT IS DIFFICULT TERRAIN. THIS IS COMPLICATING THE SEARCH PROCESS FOR THE AGENCY HERE. >> LONGWOOD GARDENS, THAT IS VERY POPULAR FOR FOLKS WHO ARE IN AND AROUND CHESTER AND PHILLY. IT IS EXPENSIVE AND WOODED. DANELO CAVALCANTE, APPEARS TO BE COLLECTING MORE THINGS ALONG THE WAY. MORE ITEMS. HOW IS IT POSSIBLE THAT HE HAS BEEN ABLE TO . POLICE FOR THIS LONG? IS IT THE TERRAIN AND THE FACT THAT WE ARE LEARNING TONIGHT, THAT THERE HAD BEEN ONE PREVIOUS ESCAPE FROM THE SAME PRISON? >> Reporter: IT IS A COMBINATION OF THINGS. LONGWOOD GARDENS, DIRECTLY NEXT TO WHERE I AM STANDING. 1000 ACRES. THE LATEST SURVEILLANCE IMAGES HAVE COME IN. WHAT WE HAVE LEARNED FROM THEM, IS THAT HE HAD A NUMBER OF THINGS THAT HE HAS SINCE ACCUMULATED SENSE. HE WAS ESCAPING LAST WEEK, INCLUDING A BACKPACK, A DUFFEL BAG, IT'S RICHARD, AND THAT IS A POINT OF CONCERN FOR POLICE. HE IS BREAKING INTO PEOPLE'S HOUSES. HE IS BREAKING INTO PEOPLE'S CARS. ONE MAN TOLD NBC NEWS NOW, THAT HE BELIEVES DANELO CAVALCANTE ACTUALLY MADE INTO HIS HOME. HERE IS MORE FROM POLICE. >> YOU'RE DEALING WITH SOMEONE WHO IS DESPERATE. THEY ARE NOT WILLING TO GET CAUGHT. IF HE CAN FIND CLOTHING, SHELTER, FOOD, HE IS GOING TO TAKE ADVANTAGE OF WHATEVER HE FINDS. THAT IS WHY WE ARE PRESSURING HIM. WE ARE NOT ALLOWING HIM THE LUXURY OF REST. >> Reporter: EARLIER THIS YEAR IN MAY AS YOU MENTIONED, ANOTHER PRISONER ESCAPED. WE LEARN FROM CHESTER COUNTY PRISON ABOUT THREE MILES FROM WHERE I'M STANDING, COURT DOCUMENTS SHOW RATHER THAT HE MANAGED TO CLIMB THE WALL, AND RUN ACROSS THE ROOFTOP GRADE WE ARE LOOKING AT HOW DANELO CAVALCANTE ESCAPED. WE DON'T KNOW SOME OF THESE ANSWERS. THEY ARE FOCUSING ALL OF THEIR ATTENTION ON BRINGING HIM BACK INTO CUSTODY. >> ALIVE IN CHESTER COUNTY, THANK YOU VERY MUCH. >>> TO SOUTH CAROLINA NOW, BREAKING NEWS TONIGHT. LAWYERS OF THE CONVICTED MURDERER, ALEX MURDAUGH, OPTIMISTIC THAT THEY ARE GOING TO GET A NEW TRIAL FOR THEIR CLIENT. WHY? THE ALLEGATIONS ARE PUT IN FORWARD ACCUSING THEM OF JURY TAMPERING. THEY ARE ON THE STEPS OF THE SOUTH CAROLINA COURT. CALLING UP THE CLERK, FOR IN THEIR WORDS, BETRAYING HER OATH FOR MONEY AND FAME. >> THE CLERK OF COURT, IS THE PERSON THAT MAKES SURE THAT THE JURY GETS THE FOOD. IF THEY ARE PUT UP FOR THE NIGHT, MAYBE SOME PLACE TO STAY, TRAVEL ACCOMMODATIONS ARE MET, THEY ARE NOT SOMEONE THAT SHOULD EVER TALK TO THEM ABOUT THE CASE. I HAVE NEVER HAD IT HAPPEN. >> SOME JURORS WITH THESE ACCUSATIONS, SEEM TO BE TAKING THAT SERIOUSLY. AT LEAST TWO OF THE MEMBERS OF THAT JURY, HAVE THEIR OWN LAWYERS. ALEX MURDAUGH, IS IN PRISON ON TWO LIFE SENTENCES FOR KILLING HIS WIFE AND SON. THIS WAS A DOUBLE MURDER TRIAL OF THE CENTURY. HE REPEATEDLY TOLD THE JURY OVER THE COURSE OF THIS WEEK, THAT HE WAS NOT GUILTY. SOMEBODY ELSE CHOKED HIS WIFE AND SON. THEY NEVER PRESENTED EVIDENCE ABOUT THE SUBSTRATE. WE ARE IN SOUTH CAROLINA, WITH KATHY, WITH NEW EVIDENCE. REBECCA HILL, WHO ALEX MURDAUGH'S ATTORNEYS POINT OUT IS AN ELECTED OFFICIAL. SHE HAS ACCESS TO THE JURORS. SHE HAS A BOOK ON HER EXPERIENCES. "BEHIND THE DOORS OF JUSTICE." ALEX MURDAUGH, STATED THAT BOOK IS WHY SOME OF THE JURORS TALKED ABOUT THIS. >> Reporter: THAT IS ABSOLUTELY RIGHT. AFTER THE TRIAL WRAPPED UP IN MARCH, ALEX MURDAUGH'S LEGAL TEAM, SAID THEY WANTED TO O AND FIGURE OUT EXACTLY WHAT HAD HAPPENED IN THE JURY ROOM. INITIALLY, THEY WERE MET WITH A SO-CALLED ZONE OF SILENCE. NOBODY WANTED TO SHARE EXACTLY WHAT HAPPENED DURING THE TRIAL. THAT IS UNTIL THAT BOOK CAME OUT. ACCORDING TO ALEX MURDAUGH'S ATTORNEYS, SOME OF THOSE JURORS WERE UPSET. THEY WERE MORE FORTHCOMING ABOUT EXACTLY WHAT THEY HAD DONE BEFORE. TAKE A LISTEN. >> WE WERE HITTING BRICK WALLS UNTIL A BOOK CAME OUT. THE JURORS WHO OBVIOUSLY WERE NOT COMFORTABLE WITH HOW SHE HANDLED THE MATTER, WERE EVEN LESS COMFORTABLE WITH HER GOING ON A BOOK TOUR. THEY WERE MAKING MONEY OFF OF WHAT SHE DID. >> Reporter: WE SHOULD POINT OUT THAT THE COURT FILINGS ARE NOW OFFICIAL. HE IS BEING ACCUSED, BASED ON THE COURT DOCUMENTS, OF ALLEGEDLY DRIVING CONVERSATIONS WITH THE JURY, AND ASKING THEM FOR OPINIONS ABOUT THEIR SKILLS, OR HIS INNOCENCE. THEY INVENTED THE STORY ABOUT A FACEBOOK PROPOSAL THAT THEY BELIEVED TO BE IN FAVOR OF THE DEFENSE. WE SAW THEM ASKED IF ANY OF THEM HAD REACHED OUT TO BECKY . THEY REALLY HAVEN'T. WE ARE WAITING FOR THEM AS WELL. >> WHAT ARE THE NEXT STEPS? WHAT IS IT LOOKING LIKE HERE? >> Reporter: RIGHT NOW, THE MOTION HAS BEEN FILED. THEY HAVE 10 DAYS TO RESPOND. COUNTING THEM THOSE DAYS TO SEE EXACTLY WHAT WILL HAPPEN HERE IN THE CALENDAR. >> KATHY PARK, LIFE FOR US HERE IN SOUTH CAROLINA. LET'S BRING IN THE LEGAL ANALYST. YOU HAVE EXPERIENCE AS A DEFENSE ATTORNEY. TALK ABOUT ALLEGATIONS THAT ALEX MURDAUGH'S TEAM IS LEVELING HERE. DO YOU BELIEVE THEY HIT THE BAR FOR A NEW TRIAL? IS THAT A POSSIBILITY? >> IT IS A REALM OF POSSIBILITY. THE STANDARDS ARE HIGH. YOU NEED NEWLY DISCOVERED EVIDENCE. FROM WHAT THEY ARE SAYING, IT SEEMS TO BE SOMETHING THEY DIDN'T KNOW ABOUT FROM THE TRIAL. THEY COULDN'T HAVE KNOWN ABOUT IT UNTIL AFTERWARDS, WHEN THEY FINALLY COULD TALK TO JURORS. IT HAS TO BE SOMETHING THAT PROBABLY WOULD HAVE AFFECTED THE OUTCOME OF A NEW TRIAL. I THINK THEY ARE ON THE WAY TO POSSIBLY FIGURING IT OUT. THEY HAVE SOME OF THAT EMOTION. THERE AREN'T A LOT OF INSTANCES WHERE THE ALLEGATIONS ARE COMING FROM WITHIN THE COURTHOUSE. THIS IS FROM A BAILIFF OR COURT STAFF. CERTAINLY NOT THE CLERK OF COURTS. I HAVE A LOT OF PROBLEMS WITH THESE ALLEGATIONS. THE MERE FACT THAT THE CLERK OF COURTS WROTE A BOOK, WHO WAS LOOKING FOR A BOOK BY THE CLERK OF COURT? THEY ARE BASICALLY MANAGING THE DOCKETS, AND MANAGING JURORS. THEY ARE NOT LAWYERS OR WITNESSES. THEY ARE NOT SOMEONE WHO SHOULD HAVE INSIDE INFORMATION. THE VERY IDEA THAT SOMEONE WOULD WRITE A BOOK, IMPLIES TO ME, THAT THEY SEE THEIR ROLE AS MORE THAN JUST BEING THE CLERK OF COURT. >> WE WILL SEE HOW THIS ONE GOES. THEY HAVE ABOUT A WEEK AND A HALF BEFORE WE GET IT STARTED. >>> THE LINES OF BURNING MEN ARE STARTING TO CLEAR UP TONIGHT. THOUSANDS OF PEOPLE MAKE THAT EXIT FROM THE SLOPPY, MUD FIELD. LOOK AT HOW CRAZY THE LINES WERE AS PEOPLE STARTED TO LEAVE. EIGHT HOURS, TO GET SIX MILES. HAVE YOU EVER BEEN IN THAT KIND OF GRIDLOCK? THAT IS SERIOUS TRAFFIC HERE. A LOT OF PEOPLE DID NOT STAY FOR THE LITERAL BURNING OF THE MEN. THE EFFIGY. THAT IS THE WHOLE THING. IT IS JUST OUTSIDE BLACK ROCK CITY, NEVADA. HERE IS MORE. >> Reporter: WE ARE AT THE MAIN ENTRANCE, IN AND OUT OF BURNING MEN. YOU CAN SEE THE LONG LINE OF CARS THAT ARE RIGHT HERE. BUMPER-TO-BUMPER. MAKING THEIR WAY OUT. THIS IS THE SO-CALLED EXODUS. ROADS WERE COVERED IN MUD. YOU CAN SEE THAT THEY HAVE DRIED UP AND THIS IS THE LONG HAUL OUT OF HERE. IT IS THE LONG END TO WHAT HAS REALLY BEEN A TRYING FEW DAYS FOR A LOT OF THE ATTENDEES HERE AT BURNING MAN. IT HAS CAUSED THE DESERT SAND TO TURN INTO STICKY, WET MUD. PEOPLE HAD TO HIKE OUT FOR MILES TO GET OUT. FOR THOSE WHO DID WAIT IT OUT, AND ARE JUST MAKING THEIR WAY INTO CIVILIZATION, THEY ARE VERY RELIEVED TO BE GOING HOME. BURNING MAN, DEFINITELY ATTRACTS PEOPLE. THEY WANT TO LIVE OFF THE GRID. THIS IS CERTAINLY EVEN PUT THE MOST SELF-RELIANT TO THE TEST. BACK TO YOU. >>> I WANT TO GET TO THE HEAT. SEPTEMBER IS NOT THE OFFICIAL END OF SUMMER. IT BROUGHT THE COUNTRY 70 MILLION OF US SWEAT FROM THE HEAT ALERT. THIS WAS FROM THE MIDWEST, AS WELL AS THE NORTHEAST. THE HEAT IS NOT NORMAL FOR THIS TIME OF YEAR. IN THE SUMMER, IT IS SUPPOSED TO BE HOT. AFTER LABOR DAY, IT IS NOT SUPPOSED TO BE THAT HOT. 90 DEGREES. LOOK AT MICHIGAN. TRAVERSE CITY, 93 DEGREES. MORE THAN 80 RECORDS ARE POSSIBLE BY THE END OF THE DAY. THIS COULD NOT BE A RECORD BREAKING DAY. IT COULD BE AN 80 RECORD BREAKING DAY. SOME AROUND DETROIT HAVE CLOSED ALREADY. OTHER SCHOOLS IN NEW JERSEY, HAVE HAD TO LEAVE SCHOOL EARLY. SOME OF THESE PLACES DON'T HAVE THE RIGHT AC IN THE BUILDING. WHERE IS IT THE MOST INTENSE? WHEN WILL PEOPLE GET SOME RELIEF? >> IT IS THE MOST DANGEROUS ONE PLACES THEY CAN'T PREPARE FOR OUR RIGHT HERE. THERE ARE SO MANY TEACHERS THAT HAVE JUST THOSE WINDOWS, AND THEY ARE TRYING TO COOL OFF THE WHOLE CLASSROOM. I REMEMBER GROWING UP IN THE NORTHEAST, YOU ARE STICKING TO THE DESK. IT IS HORRIBLE. THEY DON'T WANT THE KIDS TO HAVE TO GO THROUGH THAT. ESPECIALLY WHEN THEY HAVE BEEN THROUGH A LOT IN THE LAST COUPLE OF YEARS. THEY ARE LETTING THEM GO HOME EARLY. THEY ARE GOING ALTOGETHER. IT IS ABOUT ALL OF THE SPORTS PRACTICING AFTER SCHOOL. 25 MILLION PEOPLE, HIGH SCHOOL FOOTBALL SEASON IN THE SOUTH, IT IS 100 DEGREES IN MANY AREAS. WE HAVE TO DO THOSE EARLY IN THE MORNING. WE WILL SEE WHO THE HOTTEST IS RIGHT NOW. DALLAS IS UP THERE. 102 DEGREES ONCE AGAIN. HOT SUMMER, AND DRY. HOUSTON WAS HUMID. THEY HAD SOME BREEZES COMING OFF THROUGH THE GULF OF MEXICO. STILL AT 97. UNFORTUNATELY, WE ARE DOING THIS AGAIN TOMORROW. THEY CAN HAVE 100 IN BREAKING RECORDS. NORTHERN NEW ENGLAND, WE HAVE A LOT THAT DON'T HAVE AIR CONDITIONING. I WILL TELL YOU THAT. 90 TOMORROW IN HERRICK USE, AND IT WILL GRADUALLY COOL OFF THIS WEEKEND. WE STILL HAVE TO GET THROUGH THIS WEEK. >> DOES THE COOL OFF HAVE ANY IMPACT? IS IT NEAR THE STORM SYSTEM? HAVE THEY NOT BEEN UPGRADED TO A TROPICAL STORM? >> NO. IT IS ALL ABOUT THIS WEEKEND. WE HAVE ANOTHER ONE AFTER THAT ONE. WE ARE COUNTING ON A SECOND COLD FRONT FOR DROPPING OFF THE LEAD. MORE ON THAT IN THE COMING DAYS. EIGHT TO 10 DAYS FROM NOW. THIS IS A TROPICAL STORM LEAK. THIS IS ON THE END. THIS IS IN THE NEXT 10 DAYS, MAYBE 14 DAYS. HERE IS WHY. THE HURRICANE CENTER, HAS IT FIVE DAYS FROM NOW. THEY HAVE A STRONG, CATEGORY FOUR HURRICANE. WE DON'T WANT TO DEAL WITH THAT, OR MESS WITH IT. KEEP IT OUT OVER THE OCEAN. WE HAVE THOSE SHIP STORMS. THE SHIPPING ROUTES CAN GO AROUND IT. WE WANT TO CONTINUE LIKE THIS. AFTER THIS, IT DOES LOOK LIKE IT WILL TAKE A TURN TO THE NORTH. IT IS FAVORED BETWEEN BERMUDA AND THE EAST COAST. IT IS NOT SENDING A DIRECT POINT AT THIS POINT. WE HAVE A LONG WAY TO GO BEFORE WE WATCHED THIS ONE. >> THANK YOU SO MUCH, WE APPRECIATE IT. >>> WE ARE LOOKING AT TRENTON, TAKING OFF HIS MASK TO AWARD THE MEDAL OF HONOR FROM A VIETNAM VETERAN. A COUPLE OF DAYS AFTER HIS WIFE TESTED POSITIVE FOR COVID. THE PRESIDENT HIMSELF, TESTED NEGATIVE FOR COVID EARLIER TODAY. HE IS UNMASKED, WHILE PENNING THAT MEDAL. THIS IS ANOTHER IMPACT FOR HIM. HE IS HEADING OVERSEAS. CONCERNS NOW, THAT HE COULD POTENTIALLY GET SICK. HE COULD MAYBE SPREAD COVID WHILE HE IS OUT OF THE COUNTRY, EVEN WITHOUT THE PRESENCE OF HIS WIFE. LATE SUMMER, EARLY FALL SURGE OF COVID. THEY ARE SHOWING HOSPITALIZATIONS ARE UP 20% IN THE MOST RECENT WEEKS THAT WE HAVE, THE MIDDLE OF AUGUST. THIS WAS 10 TIMES BACK THAT IN JANUARY FROM LAST YEAR. NOT PEAK COVID TIMES. IT IS GOING TO BE KICKING BACK OUT RIGHT NOW. A MEDICAL CONTRIBUTOR IS WITH US AS WELL. LET ME START WITH YOU. IT WAS INTERESTING TO SEE THE DYNAMIC FROM THE PUBLIC EVENT AT THE WHITE HOUSE. THIS WAS AFTER HIS WIFE'S POSITIVE TEST. THIS IS BEHIND THE TEAM. THIS PRESIDENT IS GOING TO BE IN TOUCH WITH A LOT OF DIFFERENT LEADERS, ADVISERS, AND OTHER THINGS IN THE DAYS TO COME. >> THIS IS THE POTENTIAL EXPOSURE. THEY ARE SAID TO LEAVE ON THURSDAY TO INDIA. THAT WILL TAKE PLACE IN THE G 20 SUMMIT IN NEW DELHI FOR A COUPLE OF DAYS. HE IS HEADING BACK TO HANOI, VIETNAM, TO CONTINUE THAT, THEN TRAVEL BACK TO THE U.S. WE ARE TALKING ABOUT WHY THAT IS NORMAL. THE FIRST LADY TESTED POSITIVE. THE PRESIDENT HAS TESTED NEGATIVE TWICE SINCE THEN. THEY WILL TRAVEL DOWN TO FLORIDA TOGETHER TO TAKE IN SOME OF THE DAMAGE FROM THE HURRICANES. THE FIRST LADY WAS TRAVELING ALL OF LAST WEEK ON HER OWN TO DO A SERIES OF BACK-TO-SCHOOL KICKOFF EVENTS. WE KNOW THAT THEY HAVE BEEN TOGETHER, OBVIOUSLY, IN THE LAST COUPLE OF DAYS. THAT IS WHY YOU SAW THE PRESIDENT WEARING A MASK TODAY. THE WHITE HOUSE SAID THEY WERE GOING TO WHERE A MASK INDOORS, AND AROUND OTHERS. WE ARE IN THAT WINDOW OF A COUPLE OF DAYS. IT IS POSSIBLE THAT WE COULD TEST POSITIVE. WE JUST WON'T KNOW FOR SOME TIME. THE WHITE HOUSE IS GOING TO CONTINUE TO TEST. WE WILL SEE IF HE HAS ANY SYMPTOMS. SO FAR, HE HAS NONE. THIS IS MORE FROM THE PRESS SECRETARY FOR THE TAKING. >> AS FAR AS THE STEPS THAT HE IS TAKING WITH THE FIRST LADY, HE WOULD BE MASKING WELL INDOORS, AND AROUND PEOPLE. THE PRESIDENT WILL REMOVE HIS MASK. HE WILL HAVE SOME OF THE RESTRICTIONS INDOORS AND OUTSIDE AS WELL. >> THE FIRST LADY IS EXPERIENCING ONLY MINOR SYMPTOMS. SHE WILL ISOLATE IN DELAWARE FOR THE REMAINDER OF THE WEEK. WE ARE TOLD THAT WE ARE GOING TO GET UPDATES ON HER SITUATION. LAST SUMMER, BUT THE PRESIDENT AND FIRST LADY HAD COVID. IT WAS SEPARATE. THEY BOTH REBOUNDED AFTER THAT. IT IS FAIRLY COMMON. SHE'S GOING TO BE TAKING THAT AGAIN THIS TIME. SOMETIMES, IT HELPS TO REDUCE THE SEVERITY OF ANY KIND OF SYMPTOMS. >> MONICA, THANK YOU VERY MUCH. WE TALK ABOUT THE INCIDENTS OF COVID, THAT HAS HAPPENED. WE HAVE INCREDIBLY HIGH-PROFILE CASES FROM THE FIRST LADY, WHICH MAKES US THINK, HOW SHOULD WE BE THINKING? THEY ARE NOT JUST TESTING POSITIVE. HOW ARE YOU LOOKING AT THIS? HOW SHOULD WE BE LOOKING AT THIS? >> WE SHOULD BE LOOKING AT THIS, SAYING THAT WE SHOULD NOT BE SURPRISED THAT THIS IS HAPPENING. WE HAVE SEEN THE FLOW, NOT SO MUCH AS A CONFIRMED SEASONALITY TO COVID YET. WE STILL CAN'T LOOK AT IT EXACTLY WHEN WE ARE GOING TO DO IT. PEOPLE HAVE BEEN TRAVELING AND CONGREGATING. THEY HAVE A NEW VARIANT THAT COULD BE TRANSMITTED TO THEM. NONE OF THIS SHOULD SURPRISE ANY OF US. IT IS IMPORTANT TO KEEP INTO CONTEXT, THAT IF YOU HAVE A LOW NUMBER OF POSSIBILITIES TO BEGIN WITH, THAT YOU HAVE A HIGHER NUMBER THAN AN ALREADY LOWER NUMBER. WE HAVE DONE A PRETTY GOOD JOB OF COMMUNICATING TO THE PUBLIC, THAT THIS ISN'T A CAUSE FOR MAJOR ALARM. IF YOU ARE AN AVERAGE, NOT ELDERLY, IMMUNOCOMPROMISED PERSON, YOU RUN THE RISK OF FEELING PRETTY CRAPPY FOR A COUPLE OF DAYS. YOU RUN THE RISK OF POTENTIALLY DEVELOPING LONG COVID. SADLY, THE PEOPLE WHO ARE DYING IN THE HOSPITAL, OR IN THOSE CATEGORIES OF THE MORE VULNERABLE THAT WE TALKED ABOUT FROM THE BEGINNING. COVID WAS NEVER IN THE REARVIEW MIRROR. THEY KNOW WE HAVE A VACCINE COMING. WE HAVE AN ANTIVIRAL THAT WORKS. >> THANK YOU VERY MUCH FOR THAT CONTEXT. >>> STAY TUNED, AS WE GO TO THE CAPITOL NOW. MITCH O'CONNELL, IS BACK HERE IN WASHINGTON AFTER HIS SECOND FREEZE UP. THIS IS IN LAST FIVE WEEKS. IT WAS ANOTHER MOMENT WHERE HE WAS TAKING QUESTIONS. HE WAS NOT SAYING TOO MUCH ABOUT HIS HEALTH NIGHT. >> AT ONE PARTICULAR MOMENT ABOUT MY TIME, I RECEIVED A FAIR SHARE OF ATTENTION. THIS WAS IN THE PRESS OVER THE PAST WEEK. I ASSURE YOU, AUGUST WAS A VERY PRODUCTIVE MONTH FOR ME AND MY STAFF. THIS IS PART OF THE COMMONWEALTH. >> THAT IS THE ILLUSION TO WHAT HAPPENED. HE WAS BACK HOME ON RECESS. THEY SAY THERE ARE NO SIGNS THAT SENATOR McCONNELL HAD A SEIZURE DISORDER, OR A STROKE AND AFTER THAT EPISODE, OR THE ONE BEFORE IT EARLIER THIS SUMMER. A LOT OF EYES ARE ON THE SENATOR, OF COURSE. CONGRESS IS COMING BACK. IT IS ALREADY SHAPING UP TO BE A SEPTEMBER FULL OF POTENTIAL CHAOS, AND CERTAINLY NOT A LOT OF WORK. ON CAPITOL HILL, WE ARE BREAKING IT TO YOU. CAN WE ALLUDE TO WHAT HAPPENED HERE? BY ANY MEASURE, IS THIS AN OBJECTIVELY NEWSWORTHY ACTION FROM THE REPUBLICANS? IS HE ONE OF THE MOST POWERFUL IN THE COUNTRY? HIS DOCTOR IS NOT COMING OUT, AND SAYING NO SIGN OF STROKE OR SEIZURE. HAS HE BEEN ASKED ABOUT IT SINCE HE HAS BEEN BACK? WE ARE LOOKING AT THIS OFTEN. IT IS NOT TOTALLY UNHEARD OF. GIVE US A SENSE OF WHAT YOU ARE HEARING. >> HE HAS A LONG, SLOW WALK FROM THE OFFICE. THIS IS ONTO THE FLOOR TODAY. IT WAS ONE OF THE MOST ATTENDED THINGS I HAVE EVER SEEN AS A REPORTER HERE ON CAPITOL HILL. REPORTERS AND PHOTOGRAPHERS, ARE TRYING TO ASK THOSE QUESTIONS, TAKE PHOTOS, AND TAKE STOCK OF HOW THEY WERE DOING, AND HOW THEY WERE MOVING, AS HE RETURNS TO THE CAPITOL TODAY. HE HAS NO WORDS. THAT MIGHT PLAGUE THE ILLUSION OF WHAT HAPPENED. HE WILL BE ASKED TOMORROW, IN HIS WEEKLY NEWS CONFERENCE, THAT HE HAS TO TAKE QUESTIONS ABOUT THIS. HE WAS PREPARED WITH ANOTHER JOKE. HE HAD NOT MADE A JOKE ABOUT PRESIDENT JOE BIDEN. HE WAS SANDBAGGING HIS TRIP. I DON'T KNOW IF THAT IS GOING TO FLY AT THIS TIME. THAT IS HOW HIS OFFICE LIKES TO HANDLE THIS THING. ONE DIFFERENCE BETWEEN THE LAST EPISODE, AND THE SECOND EPISODE, IS THE SPEEDY NATURE BY WHICH O'CONNELL AND THE DOCTOR HERE, IS IN ANOTHER POSITION WITHIN THE U.S. CAPITOL. WE ARE FACING EVERYTHING FROM THE HEALTH PERSPECTIVE. THIS IS THE SECOND REFERENCE. WE ARE KICKING THROUGH DIFFERENT THINGS THAT WE ARE GOING TO BE SHARING THROUGH. WE HAVE ALL OF THESE AVAILABLE TESTS. HE HAS BASICALLY BEEN SUBJECTED TO ANY KIND OF TASK THAT HE CAN GET. THEY HAVE THE LINGERING EFFECTS OF HIS CONTENTION. IT IS ABOUT PUBLICLY AVAILABLE INFORMATION. >> IT IS NOT AS THOUGH HE IS COMING BACK BETWEEN THE ALL CHILLED I OF THE TIME. HE'S GOING TO BE KIND OF BANANAS, ESPECIALLY WITH THE DEADLINE COMING UP AT THE END OF THE MONTH. HE WOULD BE INSTRUMENTAL IN ANY OF THESE NEGOTIATIONS ON THE GOP SIDE. >> HE IS GOING TO HAVE A CRITICAL PLAYER. THIS IS THE SENATE BACK IN TOWN. THEY REALLY HIT THE GAS WHEN THE HOUSE GOT BACK. VERY LITTLE TIME BEFORE THE END OF THE MONTH, WHICH SAW THE GOVERNMENT SHUTDOWN. THE 12 APPROPRIATIONS MAKE UP THE GOVERNMENT. THEY ARE TRYING TO BE DONE. RIGHT NOW, ZERO OF THEM ARE GOING THROUGH CHAMBERS. THEY HAVE BASICALLY PUT THEM WITH EVERYONE IN THE CAPITOL. IT IS ANOTHER ROUTE. THEY HAVE TWO KEY PRIORITIES. THEY HAVE MONEY FOR UKRAINE IN A PACKAGE THAT GETS PAST IT. HE WANTS TO SEE THAT GET DONE. HE IS TRYING TO GET THIS DONE THROUGH A REGULAR ORDER. ON THE SENATE SIDE, THEY HAVE BEEN LOOKING AT A BIPARTISAN WAY. THIS IS UNANIMOUSLY OUT OF COMMITTEES. THAT IS USUALLY HAPPENING. THIS IS ALL ON THE SENATE SIDE. THE WAY WE ARE DOING IT OVER HERE, IS SHOWING WHAT THE HOUSE REPUBLICANS ARE DOING ON THAT SIDE. THEY ARE TRYING TO GET INTO THE NITTY-GRITTY, OF HOW HE GETS STRUCK. THEY HAVE SHORT-TERM EXTENSIONS OF FUNDING, OR HOPEFULLY, GETTING THEM FUNDED AGAINST THAT AT SOME POINT. THIS IS HOW WE GET BETWEEN THERE AND HERE OVER THE NEXT COUPLE WEEKS. IT IS GOING TO BE MESSY. >> DOING THE MESSY WORK OF COVERING. TAKE YOU SO MUCH. WE APPRECIATE IT. >>> COMING UP, YOU KNOW ABOUT THE HOLLYWOOD WRITER. THIS COULD MEAN THE PRICE OF A NEW CAR COULD BE A LOT MORE EXPENSIVE. >>> A COUPLE OF NEW STUDIES, SAY THAT THERE IS A WAY TO IDENTIFY AUTISM YEARS IN ADVANCE, BY LOOKING WITHIN A KIDS EYEBALL. THAT IS >>> HUNDREDS OF FLIGHTS ARE DELAYED ALL ACROSS THE COUNTRY TONIGHT. IT IS NOT BECAUSE OF THE WEATHER. UNITED AIRLINES IS BLAMING THIS, COMING UP ON OUR FIVE THINGS. >>> 10 MORE DAYS BEFORE THE BIG CARMAKER, AND THE AUTO WORKERS UNION TO AVOID A STRIKE. IF IT HAPPENS, THEY CAN HAVE A MAJOR IMPACT ON PRETTY MUCH EVERYBODY. THEY ARE SHUTTING DOWN PRODUCTION LINES. THEY WANT MORE MONEY ABOUT 50%. THEY WANT THE RESTORATION OF WHAT THEY HAD BEFORE. PRESIDENT JOE BIDEN, HAS GONE TO THE LEVEL WHERE HE WAS TALKING ABOUT IT. HE DOESN'T ACTUALLY THINK WE ARE GOING TO GET TO THE POINT OF A STRIKE. THAT IS NOT EXACTLY WHAT EXPERTS IN THE INDUSTRY THINK. THE QUESTION IS HOW BIG IT IS GOING TO BE. ARE THEY GOING TO WALK OUT ON FORD, GM, AND OTHERS? THEY ARE TALKING A LOT ABOUT THIS POTENTIAL STRIKE. HERE WE ARE. THE CLOCK IS TICKING. THE DEADLINE IS CLOSER. HOW ARE YOU GETTING OUT? >> THIS IS 146,000, POTENTIALLY OFF OF THE JOB. IT IS ALL ABOUT THE INDUSTRY EXPERTS. THEY THINK THEY ARE GOING TO HAPPEN AS WELL. WHAT DOES THAT MEAN FOR YOU? IT MEANS THAT YOU AND I ARE GOING TO BUY AN AMERICAN-MADE CAR. THERE IS A PRETTY GOOD CHANCE THAT IN THE COMING WEEKS, THIS GOES FORWARD. PRICES ARE GOING TO GO UP. THERE ARE GOING TO BE FEW OPTIONS FOR US. THERE'S ALSO THE POSSIBILITY AS YOU SUGGESTED, THAT WE ARE GOING TO HAVE TO PAY MORE FOR THE CAR PARTS TO GET THE CAR SERVICED. WE ARE TALKING ABOUT THE BIG THREE. THEY DON'T CALL THEM THAT FOR ANYTHING. >> THIS IS WHAT WE ARE WORKING ON NOW. IT'S ALL UNDER 20 GRAND. WE KNOW WE HAVE A LABOR MOVEMENT. THEY ARE LOOKING AT MORE LEVERAGE. >> THEY ARE PRYING THEMSELVES RIGHT THROUGH. 46% WERE LOOKING AT WHAT THEY WERE ASKING FOR. THAT IS HIGHLY UNLIKELY. EVEN THE UNION PRESIDENT SAID THAT IT WAS VERY AUDACIOUS. THEY WILL 46 MEANT MORE MONEY. YOU AND I WOULD TAKE THAT DEAL. THAT IS A NEGOTIATING TACTIC. WE HAVE SO FEW WORKERS OUT THERE. THEY KNOW THAT THESE COMPANIES HAVE HIGH DEMAND FOR THEIR VEHICLES RIGHT NOW. A LOT OF PEOPLE WANT THE VEHICLES. THEY'RE TRYING TO ROLL THEM OFF OF THE ASSEMBLY LINE. WHAT IF THEY SHUTDOWN? THEY ARE LYING TO THEIR WORKERS. YOU HAVE THE UPPER HAND. >> WE LOOK FORWARD TO MORE OF YOUR REPORTING TONIGHT. >> I WILL BE THERE. 6:30. >>> D TO THE FIVE THINGS THAT YOUR TEAM IS GOING INTO TONIGHT? THIS IS STILL AS WE SPEAK. THIS IS ALL ACROSS THE COUNTRY TODAY. WHY? THEY ARE TRYING TO LOOK AT A SYSTEMWIDE COMPUTER PROBLEM. THEY FIXED IT. THIS IS NOT EVEN AN HOUR. THE AIRLINE IS TRYING TO FIGURE OUT WHAT HAPPENED. THEY HAVE DIFFERENT PASSENGERS AND CREWS. THEY ARE MESSING UP THE GREAT WALL OF CHINA. THEY ARE WIDENING THE GAP. THEY ARE TRYING TO GET TO A WORKSITE NEARBY. RUNNING SAFELY THROUGH THE WALL. THEY HAVE A DIFFERENT PORTION OF THE WALL. THEY HAVE JUST GONE THROUGH IT. THIS IS A DIFFERENT COURT RULING. THEY ARE TRYING TO LOOK AT THE BLACK VOTING DISTRICT. THEY ARE TRYING TO RELIEVE THEMSELVES. THEY HAVE ANOTHER NEUTRAL. THEY ARE HELPING RESEARCHERS GET RIGHT THROUGH IT. THEY ARE TRYING TO GET IT GOING. THEY'RE WATCHING VIDEOS OF OTHER KIDS. THE KIDS WHO WERE LOOKING THROUGH AUTISM, WERE LOOKING AT OTHER VIDEOS. THE AUSTRALIAN GOVERNMENT, HAS RESCUED MORE RESEARCHERS IN ANTARCTICA. IT IS REALLY SICK. AN ICEBREAKER SHIP TRAVEL MORE THAN 1800 MILES TO TRY TO GET UP TO THE SPACE. THEY'RE TRYING TO COMPLETE THE FINAL LEG. THEY HAVE BEEN EXPECTED TO ARRIVE IN AUSTRALIA NEXT WEEK. THIS IS GOING TO COME BACK READ CHECK OUT WISCONSIN. DOZENS OF STUDENTS COLLAPSED ON THIS STRUCTURE. ANOTHER TRIAL HAPPENING RIGHT NOW IN TEXAS. REPUBLICANS ARE TRYING TO IMPEACH ONE OF RIGHT NOW? THIS IS ALL ABOUT NBC NEWS NOW. >>> RIGHT NOW IN TEXAS, THE IMPEACHMENT TRIAL. ONE OF THE HIGH-PROFILE ATTORNEY GENERALS IN THE COUNTRY. THEY ARE TAKING OFF ON A RARE CASE THAT HAS REPUBLICANS TAKING ON ONE OF THEIR OWN IN ANOTHER STATE. YOU'RE TAKING ON ANOTHER TEXAS SENATE CHAMBER. THEY HAD 20 ARTICLES. THEY HAVE ACTIVE DAYS OF CORRUPTION, VIEWING PUBLIC TRUST. THEY'RE TRYING TO GET IT THROUGH RIGHT HERE. THEY ARE TRYING TO FIGURE OUT WHETHER TO KICK THEM OUT OR NOT. THEY DENIED DOING ANYTHING WRONG. TAKING A LIVE LOOK AT THE STATE CAPITOL IN AUSTIN. IT IS INTERESTING FOR THESE REPUBLICANS. IT IS ABOUT THE TEXAS LEGISLATOR, AND REPUBLICANS. THEY ARE VOTING TO IMPEACH HIM HERE. THIS IS A RARE MOVE INSIDE THE GOP. WHY IS IT HAPPENING? >> Reporter: IT IS INCREDIBLY POLITICAL HERE. THEY HAVE DIFFERENT TROUBLES. THEY ARE TRYING TO LOOK AT THE FBI IN 2020. IT APPEARS THAT THEY ARE TRYING TO LOOK AT THE SUPPLENESS THAT THEY AGREED TO SETTLE. THIS WAS BACK IN 2020. $3.3 MILLION SETTLEMENT IS RIGHT THERE. IT IS ALL ABOUT THE HOUSE REPUBLICANS. WE ARE TRYING TO SEE WHERE THEY WILL STAND. WE KNOW THAT THEY HAD A CHANCE TO STOP THIS TRIAL IN THEIR TRACKS TODAY. 12 REPUBLICANS JOINED WITH THE DEMOCRATS AGAINST THEM EARLIER TODAY. WE SAW IT ON THE SCREEN OF CORRUPTION. WE HAD THE MISUSE OF FUNDS. IT IS VERY SERIOUS TOO MANY OTHER REPUBLICANS. >> A LOT OF THEM KNOW ABOUT IT IN POLITICAL CIRCLES. WHAT ARE THE STEPS THAT WE HAVE TO TAKE IN ORDER TO BE REMOVED FROM OFFICE? >> TO BE REMOVED, HE NEEDS TWO THIRDS OF THE SENATE, 21 SENATORS, FOR THOSE DOING THE MATH AT HOME, THAT ARE ALLOWED TO VOTE. SHE WILL NOT BE VOTING. A NUMBER OF REPUBLICANS AGREE TO ALL OF THE DEMOCRATS THERE WERE GOING TO VOTE FOR IMPEACHMENT. THEY WERE TRYING TO REMOVE THEM FOR OFFICE. THEY WERE TRYING TO REMOVE THEM AGAIN IN THE SPECIAL COLLECTION. THEY KNOW HOW IT WILL BE CALLED. >> THIS IS LIVE IN AUSTIN. WATCHING ALL OF IT. >> WE ARE LOOKING AT A DIFFERENT COURSE OF IT. >>> YOU COULDN'T POSSIBLY READ OR WATCH ALL OF THEM. THEY HAVE DONE IT FOR YOU. THIS IS GOING TO TELL US WHAT IS GOING ON IN THE REGION. IT IS ALL ABOUT THE LOCAL. THIS IS FROM OUR SOUTHERN BUREAU. FIVE TEENAGERS, DEAD, AFTER A CAR THEY WERE RIDING IN, LANDED ON THE HIGHWAY ON I-85 HERE IN ATLANTA. THIS WAS FROM A RAMP EARLIER YESTERDAY MORNING. THREE OTHER PEOPLE WERE TAKEN TO THE HOSPITAL. WE ARE TRYING TO FIGURE OUT WHY THE CRASH HAPPENED IN THE FIRST PLACE. SCARY MOMENTS AT A WELCOME BACK EVENT FOR THE UNIVERSITY OF WISCONSIN STUDENTS. A STRUCTURE COLLAPSES INTO THE LAKE. 70 PEOPLE WERE ON THIS THING. NO LIFEGUARDS. FORTUNATELY, FEW PEOPLE WERE TREATED FOR MINOR INJURIES. I THINK EVERYONE IS PRETTY GLAD THAT IT WASN'T WORSE. >>> RIVER TAXIS ARE MAKING THEIR WEEKDAY COME BACK TODAY. THEY GOT DOCKED AT THE START OF THE PANDEMIC. THEY STARTED GOING ON WEEKENDS AGAIN. THEY ARE GOING TO RUN DURING RUSH HOUR. THIS WAS SIX DOLLARS PER TRIP. DOES THAT SEEM GOOD TO YOU? COMING UP. >>> CHILDCARE, ALREADY EXPENSIVE. HARD TO FIND. IT IS GOING TO GET EVEN WORSE SOON. WE WILL TELL YOU WHY TONIGHT IS THE ORIGINAL. >>> IS SOMEBODY GOT FIRED IN THE SOCCER WORLD AFTER THAT FORCE KISS AT THE WOMEN'S WORLD >>> TONIGHT, AN ORIGINAL, IN DEPTH LOOK ON WHAT WE HAVE BEEN WATCHING. TONIGHT IS A CRISIS, GETTING CLOSER AND CLOSER. MILLIONS OF KIDS, AND THE WORKING CAREGIVERS, LOOKING AT CHILDCARE. THE PANDEMIC FROM CHILDCARE IS RUNNING OUT. WE HAVE THE HARD DECISIONS THAT ARE GOING TO BE MADE. THIS IS HOW THIS MONEY DRIVES UP. >> Reporter: STORYTIME IN MISSIONARY CLASS AT THIS CHILD DEVELOPMENT CENTER IN CONNECTICUT. >> Reporter: SHE IS FOUR YEARS OLD. ONE THING IS FOR SURE, SHE IS HAPPY. >> I LOVE MY TEACHERS. I LIKE FLAMINGOS AND VOLCANOES. >> SEE YOU LATER, ALLIGATOR. IT IS HARD TO FIND QUALITY CHILDCARE. I FEEL LIKE IT IS IMPORTANT TO HAVE A SCHOOL LIKE THIS FOR ALL OF THE CHILDREN TO HAVE AN OPPORTUNITY TO LEARN AND GROW. >> Reporter: THE SCHOOLS WORRY THAT THEY NEED TO DOWNSIZE. IT MILLIONS OF DOLLARS IN PANDEMIC FUNDING FOR CHILD CARE, IS SET TO EXPIRE AT THE END OF THE MONTH. ACROSS THE COUNTRY, 3.2 MILLION KIDS COULD LOSE THEIR CHILDCARE, AND 70,000 PROGRAMS ARE EXPECTED TO CLOSE. THIS IS THE DIRECTOR OF GROWING SEED. SHE IS RUNNING THROUGH SCENARIOS FOR WHEN THE FUNDING DRIES UP READ >> THERE COULD BE A RUMOR TO THAT DID THIS IS ALL BASED ON THE FUNDING THAT WE DON'T SEE. THAT MEANS YOU COULD HAVE 20 OR 30 CHILDREN THAT WILL NOT BE ATTENDING PRESCHOOL ANYMORE. >> Reporter: THERE IS A RIPPLE EFFECT. SOME KIDS ARE NOT IN SCHOOL. WHAT DID THESE PARENTS NEED TO CHANGE OR MAYBE LEAVE THEIR JOB WITH? $9 BILLION ARE HERE IN EARNINGS EVERY YEAR. EXPERTS SAY IT HAS EXPOSED WHAT IS A REALLY LONG-STANDING PROBLEM. >> CHILDCARE HAS NEVER BEEN ADEQUATE. WHAT HAPPENED DURING THE PANDEMIC, WE WERE MADE CLEAR THAT THIS SYSTEM WAS FRAGMENTED. >> Reporter: ON AVERAGE, CHILDCARE CAN COST ANYWHERE FROM $5000 TO MORE THAN $15,000 , ACCORDING TO GOVERNMENT DATA. CHILDCARE WORKERS, HAVE HISTORICALLY MADE LESS THAN THE NATIONAL AVERAGE AS OF MAY 2022. THEY ONLY MADE AROUND $14 AN HOUR. SOME CHILDCARE WORKERS, ARE GOING TO LEAVE THE INDUSTRY. >> CHILDCARE IS ON THE LINE RIGHT NOW. THEY DON'T REALLY WANT TO STAY OR GO LOOK FOR SOMETHING ELSE. THEY HAVE MORE BENEFITS. >> Reporter: THOSE WHO STAY, SAY THEY NEED MORE SUPPORT. >> WE HAD TO PURCHASE THINGS FOR OUR CLASSROOM OUT OF OUR OWN POCKET. IT SHOULD NOT BE LIKE THAT. WE SHOULD GET THE FUNDING TO PROVIDE SUPPLIES FOR NEW TOYS AND BOOKS. NEW FURNITURE, STUFF LIKE THAT. >> Reporter: MAYBE JUST KIDS LIKE HER, WHO JUST WANT TO LEARN. >> WE HAVE BEEN JOINED NOW. IT IS INCREDIBLE TO SEE THESE KIDS, AND LOOK AT HOW THEY ARE GETTING THESE APPROPRIATE CENTERS. WE KNOW THERE IS A LOT AT STAKE. IS THERE ANY RELIEF INSIDE? >> THE FIRST SHORT ANSWER, NO. CONGRESS IS TRYING TO LOOK AT SOMETHING THAT IS NOT GOING THROUGH RIGHT NOW. SOME INDIVIDUALS, STATE THAT A LOT IS AT STAKE. RESEARCHERS INDICATED THAT CHILDCARE IS PART OF THE ECONOMY. IT IS ONE OF THE REASONS WHY. ALMOST 50 PERCENT OF AMERICAN HOUSEHOLDS ARE HEADED BY WOMEN FOR CHILDREN UNDER 18. NOT ALL OF THEM ARE OF LEGAL AGE. THIS IS ENORMOUSLY IMPORTANT. IF WOMEN AREN'T WORKING, THEY ARE NOT EARNING. IF THEY ARE NOT EARNING, THEY ARE NOT SPENDING. NOT SPENDING, MEANS IT IS AN ATTACK ON THE ECONOMY. IN TERMS OF CHILDREN BEING READY, THEY HAVE TO BE GOOD CITIZENS AND GOOD, EFFECTIVE MEMBERS OF SOCIETY. CHILDREN FROM LOW INCOME FAMILIES ONLY HAVE 25 HOURS OF EDUCATION BEFORE KINDERGARTEN. 10 >>> LET'S TALK SOCCER SHAKEUPS IN SPAIN. WOMEN'S SOCCER COACH IS OUT. WEEKS AFTER THEY WON THE WORLD CUP, A NEW COAT IS IN CHARGE. SHE IS LOOKING TO MAKE SOME CHANGES. WE HAD THE LATEST FOLLOWED AFTER THE SPANISH SOCCER FEDERATION PRESIDENT KISSED A PLAYER ON THE MOUTH. LET ME BE CLEAR HERE. THE PERSON WHO GOT FIRED, VILDA. THE MENU SEE HERE. THE PERSON WHO DID NOT GET FIRED, LUIS RUBIALES. HE IS THE GUY WHO GAVE THE UNWANTED KISS TO A PLAYER. HE SAID IT WAS CONSENSUAL. SHE SAYS AT NO TIME DID SHE CONSENT. WE ARE NOT ACTUALLY SHOWING YOU THAT MOMENT. JUST TODAY, THE SOCCER FEDERATION'S INTERIM PRESIDENT, PUT OUT A STATEMENT, APOLOGIZING, THAT THEY WERE ACKNOWLEDGING LUIS RUBIALES'S KISS. THEY WERE SUSPENDING THEM. IN A FEDERATION STATEMENT, ANNOUNCED THAT THE COACH, IS LOOKING AT ONE OF THE FIRST RENOVATION MEASUREMENTS. IT IS GOING TO LEAD THE DOOR OPENED ON THE ROAD. HELP US UNDERSTAND THIS. IF LUIS RUBIALES, KISSED A PLAYER WHO DID NOT WANT TO KISS, WHY IS SOMEBODY ELSE, THE COACH, FIRED? >> THE SPANISH EDERATION DIDN'T ACTUALLY GIVE A REASON FOR FIRING VILDA. IT LEAVES A LOT OF QUESTIONS. IT LOOKS AS IF WE COULD TAKE THEM FOR THEIR WORD. THEY ARE TRYING TO MAKE THE TEAM CHANGE THE CULTURE. WE HAVE TO GO BACK A LITTLE BIT FURTHER FROM BEFORE THAT KISS. THIS IS BEFORE THE WORLD CUP. THIS IS BACK TO SEPTEMBER OF LAST YEAR. THIS WAS THE INSURRECTION AMONG DOZENS OF THESE PLAYERS. THIS IS PART OF THE NATIONAL TEAM, AGAINST VILDA, NOT LUIS RUBIALES. WE HAVE MORE CHANGES THAT WERE MADE. AT THE TIME, THEY WEREN'T INTENDING TO HAVE VILDA FIRED. THEY ARE LOOKING FOR A WAY TO GET RID OF THIS MAN FOR QUITE A LONG TIME. THEY WANTED TO, A LOT OF THESE TENSIONS DOWN. IT IS PROBABLY NOT GOING TO BE THE LAST, IF WE ARE TRYING TO CHANGE THE ENTIRE CULTURE WITHIN THE FOOTBALL SQUAD. >> INTERESTING, THAT THEY NEEDED TO BE READ. THIS IS THE FIRST WOMAN TO COACH THE SPANISH WOMEN'S TEAM. WHAT DO WE KNOW ABOUT THAT? >> FORMER MIDFIELDER. SHE IS PART OF LUIS RUBIALES'S COACHING STAFF , ALONGSIDE VILDA. SHE HAS A LOT OF LOCKER ROOM RAPPORT WITH THE PLAYERS. SHE IS GOING TO BE LEADING TEAMS TO SOME QUALIFYING MATCHES LATER THIS MONTH AGAINST SWEDEN, AND SOME OTHER REALLY CHALLENGING TEAMS. SHE WILL BE ABLE TO SHOW WHETHER OR NOT SHE HAS DISCUSSIONS FROM THE TEAM. THEY HAVE VERY FEW FEMALE COACHES ON A FEMALE TEAM. SHE COULD BE LEADING, AMIDST ALL OF THE CONTROVERSY, AMID CHANGES WITH OTHER TEAMS. WE COULD SEE DIFFERENT ACCESSIBILITY'S SPREAD. A LOT OF WOMEN HAVE BEEN WONDERING, WHY WE HAVE MEN COACHING US, WHEN THE IT DOESN'T SPEAK TO THE CULTURE. >> THEY ARE OUT THANK YOU SO MUCH. WE APPRECIATE IT. THAT DOES IT FOR US FOR THIS HOUR. WE HAVE MORE COVERAGE PICKING UP RIGHT NOW THIS IS A POPULAR LOCAL SPOT. IT LOOK LIKE HE'S GOT MORE STUFF WITH HIM. THAT BACKPACK, SOMETHING UNDER HIS ARMS. ABOUT FIVE MILES. POLICE INITIALLY THOUGHT THEY HAD HIM CORNERED. THEY ARE MAKING PROGRESS, LISTEN. >> THAT PRESSURE WE HAVE BEEN PLANNING ON THEM IS WORKING. THIS WAS OVER A PERIOD OF A FEW DAYS. I WISH YOU WOULD HAVE BEEN ABLE TO CAPTURE HIM WITHOUT HIM GETTING THROUGH THAT PERIMETER, BUT IT IS ALSO NOT SHARKING. IT'S DARK, A LARGE AREA. NOT TO MAKE EXCUSES, IT IS DIFFICULT TO REIN IN THINGS. MAKE THE MANHUNT, NOW STRETCHING IN TODAY SIX. TWO SCHOOL SHUTTING DOWN INTO A FEW DAYS OF CLASSES. IN JUST THE LAST HOUR, WE HAVE LEARNED THIS IS A PERSPECTIVE FIRST ONE FROM THIS PRISON. ACCORDING TO COURT DOCUMENTS OBTAINED, SOMEBODY ELSE ESCAPED A FEW MONTHS AGO BY CLIMBING A WALL, PULLING HIMSELF ONTO THE ROOF, AND THEN GETTING OUT. THAT WHOLE THING WAS APPARENTLY CAPTURED ON SURVEILLANCE VIDEO. CAVALCANTE HAS BEEN DESCRIBED BY POLICE BY EXTREMELY DANGEROUS. HE IS CONVICTED OF MURDERING HIS EX-GIRLFRIEND IN FRONT OF HER KIDS. EMILY OKADA IS JOINING US NOW FROM PENNSYLVANIA. YOU HAVE THIS SEARCH, THESE NEW PHOTOS, THE LATEST INDICATION OF WHERE THIS ESCAPED KILLER WAS AT LEAST OVERNIGHT WHEN HE WAS APPARENTLY AT LONGWOOD GARDEN. TALK TO US ABOUT WHERE THIS STARTS AND WHERE IT GOES? >> THE SEARCH IS RAPIDLY EVOLVING AS THEY GET ADDITIONAL TIPS, HALLIE. YOU CAN HEAR THE HELICOPTER CONTINUING TO COVER THIS AREA. INTERESTINGLY IN THE APPROACH FROM AUTHORITIES AT ALL LEVELS, THEY ARE BLARING A MESSAGE. A RECORDED MESSAGE FROM THE MOTHER, RECORDING IN PORTUGUESE, PLEADING FOR HIM TO PEACEFULLY RETURN TO POLICE CUSTODY. THAT HAS CONTINUED TO PLAY. THIS IS A UNIQUE APPROACH FROM AUTHORITIES. WE HAVE ALSO SEEN CANINES ON THE GROUND, POLICE PATROLLING BY FOOT, BY CAR. THEY ARE BLOCKING ROADWAYS. THE SEARCH AREA CONTINUES TO EXPAND AND SHIFT WITH NEW INFORMATION. RIGHT NEXT TO ME, LONGWOOD GARDEN. THOSE ARE WHERE THE LATEST PICTURES HAVE COME IN FROM OVERNIGHT. THEY SAW CAVALCANTE SEVERAL TIMES ON A TRAIL CAMERA AT THE BOTANICAL GARDEN, A SPAN OF THOUSANDS OF ACRES. DAVE NOTICED HE HAS SINCE ACCUMULATED A NUMBER OF SUPPLIES WHICH IS SUSTAINING HIM ON HIS RIGHT AS HE CONTINUES TO EVADE AUTHORITIES, NOW ON DAY SIX SINCE HIS ESCAPE. HE'S GOT A BACKPACK, A DUFFEL BAG, A SWEATSHIRT. HERE IS MORE FROM RESIDENTS WHO ARE ABSOLUTELY LEFT ON EDGE AS THE SEARCH CONTINUES. >> THE WHOLE NIGHT ON OUR DECK WITH HIS GUN AND EVERYTHING. HE STAYED UP ALL NIGHT AND WALKED THE PERIMETER OF OUR BACKYARD. >> CAVALCANTE, 120 POUNDS, FIVE FEET TALL FROM BRAZIL, JUST A COUPLE OF WEEKS AGO, HE WAS SENTENCED TO LIFE IN PRISON FOR STABBING HIS GIRLFRIEND TO DEATH, HALLIE. >> WHAT DO WE KNOW IS HE'S OBTAINED SOME OF THESE DOCUMENTS ABOUT THAT ONE? IT WAS MAYBE FOUR MONTHS AGO BACK IN MAY. DID THEY EVER CATCH THAT PERSON? >> YES, THEY DID, HALLIE. THEY WERE FRANKLY CONCERNED FROM PEOPLE ON THE GROUND HERE. WE LEARNED THESE NEW DETAILS JUST MONTHS AGO. ACCORDING TO ARREST DOCUMENTS, HE ESCAPED THE PRISON A COUPLE MILES FROM WHERE I'M STANDING NOW. IT WAS EARLY IN THE MORNING. ACCORDING TO THOSE DOCUMENTS, THE INMATE TOLD INVESTIGATORS HE WAS A GOOD ROCK CLIMBER. HE MANAGED TO SCALE THE WALL OF THE PRISON, THEN MADE A RUN FOR IT ACROSS THE ROOFTOP, GETTING AWAY FOR WHAT APPEARS TO BE JUST AN HOUR BEFORE GETTING BACK INTO POLICE CUSTODY. A GUARD HAD APPARENTLY BEEN DISTRACTED AT THE TIME BY AN ARGUMENT AT AN EARLY MORNING BASKETBALL GAME. NEAR THESE ACTIONS, THEY WOULDN'T COMMENT ON THAT. THEY SAID THEIR ATTENTION RIGHT NOW IS BRINGING HIM BACK INTO CUSTODY. >> EMILY OKADA LIVE FOR US THERE IN CHESTER COUNTY. THANK YOU SO MUCH. >>> TO SOME BREAKING NEWS OUT OF WASHINGTON. WE ARE LEARNING ABOUT THE LONGEST SENTENCE YET FOR ONE OF THE ORGANIZERS OF THE DAY MARRIED -- DEADLY JANUARY 6th ATTACK. ENRIQUE TARRIO , GETTING 22 YEARS AFTER GETTING CONVICTED ON CONSPIRACY, THE SERIOUS CHARGE DAY USED IN THE HUNDREDS OF CASES THEY HAVE PURSUED HERE. DANNY IS JOINING US NOW. DANNY, THE JUDGE WAS CLEAR ABOUT THIS. HE CAME UP, GAVE A STATEMENT. JUDGE KELLY SAID HE WAS GLAD TO HEAR ABOUT THIS APOLOGETIC STATEMENT, BUT FOUND HIS REMARKS LACKING, SAYING, I DON'T THINK HE HAS ANY INDICATION THAT HE IS REMORSEFUL. THAT CLEARLY SEEMS TO PLAY A PART IN THE SIGNIFICANT SENTENCE, MORE THAN TWO DECADES. >> YEAH, 22 YEARS IS A LOT LESS THAN THE 33 YEARS THE GOVERNMENT WAS ASKING FOR, BUT STILL MORE THAN ANY OF THE SENTENCING. THE GOVERNMENT WAS ASKING FOR THE ENHANCEMENT, WHICH THIS SENDS THIS INTO THE STRATOSPHERE. THIS COULD HAVE BEEN A LOT WORSE FOR THIS. I'M A LITTLE SURPRISED THE JUDGE EVEN FOCUSED ON THIS. I HAVE LONG BELIEVED THAT WHEN THE DEFENDANT GETS UP AND SAYS I'M SORRY, I THINK THAT IS PROBABLY PRETTY LOW ON THE PRIORITY LIST OF WHAT JUDGES CONSIDER. I THINK THEY LOOK AT THE SENTENCING GUIDELINE, THE NUMBERS, TRYING TO AVOID UNWARRANTED SENTENCING DISPARITIES. THIS IS A MAJOR DISPARITY? PROBABLY NOT. IT IS MORE THAN SOME OF THE OTHER DEFENDANTS, BUT NOT ALL ARE IDENTICAL. THIS SENTENCE LIKELY REFLECTS THAT. >> IF YOU DO SEEK A PATH AWAY FROM WHERE YOU WERE ON JERRY SIXTH, HE SAYS I WISH YOU THE BEST ON THAT PATH, DANNY. >> YEAH, THAT PATH WILL BE IN A FEDERAL CORRECTIONS FACILITY FOR THE NEXT 22 YEARS. IN THE FEDERAL SYSTEM, THERE IS NO PAROLE. YOU WOULD DO YOUR TIME. THE BEST YOU CAN DO IS ABOUT 15% OFF EVERY YEAR FOR GOOD BEHAVIOR. YOU WOULD DO 85% OF YOUR TIME. THERE IS VIRTUALLY NO WAY OUT OF FEDERAL PRISON. YOU ARE DOING YOUR TIME, UNLESS OF COURSE, A PRESIDENT DECIDES TO PARDON YOU. >> THAT IS AN INTERESTING POINT. THANK YOU VERY MUCH. >>> MORE BREAKING NEWS OUT OF SOUTH CAROLINA. FOR ALEX MURDAUGH, THEY ARE OPTIMISTIC. THEY WILL GET A NEW TRIAL, WHY? BECAUSE OF NEW ALLEGATIONS ACCUSING AN EMPLOYEE OF JURY TAMPERING. THESE ARE HIS LEGAL TEAM. THEY ARE CALLING OUT THIS CLERK FOR, IN THEIR WORDS, BETRAYING THEIR OATH FOR MONEY AND FAME. >> THE COURT IS THE PERSON THAT MAKE SURE THE JURY GETS THEIR FOOD. IF THEY'RE PUT UP FOR THE NIGH , SOMEPLACE TO STAY, TRAVEL ACCOMMODATIONS ARE MET. THEY ARE NOT SOMEONE THAT EVER SHOULD TALK TO THEM ABOUT THE CASE. I'VE NEVER HAD IT HAPPEN! >> APPARENTLY TAKING THESE ALLEGATIONS SERIOUSLY. AT LEAST TWO OF THE MEMBERS OF THE JURY HAVE HIRED THEIR OWN LAWYERS. REMEMBER, MURDAUGH IS IN PRISON ON TWO LIFE SENTENCES FOR KILLING HIS WIFE AND SON. A LOT CALLED IT THE DOUBLE MURDER TRIAL OF THE CENTURY. MURDAUGH REPEATEDLY TOLD THE JURY THAT HE IS NOT GUILTY, THAT SOMEONE ELSE KILLED THEM. HIS DEFENSE TEAM NEVER PRESENTED EVIDENCE ABOUT A DIFFERENCE OF IT. KATHY PARK IS JOINING US NOW FROM COLUMBIA, SOUTH CAROLINA. >> THIS NEW ALLEGED EVIDENCE FOCUSING ON THIS COURT CLERK, REBECCA HILL, WHO THEY POINT OUT IS AN ELECTED OFFICIAL. WE KNOW THAT THERE ARE INTERACTIONS SHE WOULD HAVE A JURIST. SHE'S ALSO GOT A BOOK ON HER EXPERIENCES CALLED, BEHIND THE DOORS OF JUSTICE. HIS ATTORNEY SAYS THAT IS WHY SOME OF THE JURORS TALKED ABOUT THIS, RIGHT? >> HALLIE, THAT IS ABSOLUTELY RIGHT. AFTER THE TRIAL WRAPPED UP IN MARCH, ALEX MURDAUGH'S LEGAL TEAM SAID THEY WANTED TO GO BACK AND FIND THAT EXACTLY WHAT HAPPENED TO THE JURY ROOM. INITIALLY, THEY WERE MET WITH SILENCE. NO ONE WANTED TO SHARE EXACTLY WHAT HAPPENED DURING THE TRIAL. THAT IS UNTIL THAT BOOK CAME OUT. ACCORDING TO MURDAUGH'S ATTORNEYS, SOME OF THE JURORS WERE UPSET AND WERE FORTHCOMING ABOUT WHAT EXACTLY HAPPENED BEHIND CLOSED DOORS. TAKE A LISTEN. >> WE WERE HITTING BRICK WALLS UNTIL A BOOK CAME OUT. JURORS WHO OBVIOUSLY WERE NOT COMFORTABLE WITH HOW SHE HANDLED MATTERS WERE EVEN LESS COMFORTABLE WITH HER GOING ON A BOOK TOUR AND MAKING MONEY OFF WHICH HE DID. >> HALLIE, WE SHOULD POINT OUT THAT THE COURT FILINGS ARTIFICIAL, LET ME TAKE YOU THROUGH SOME OF THE THINGS THAT HILL IS BEING ACCUSED OF, BASED ON THE COURT DOCUMENTS. ALLEGEDLY, SHE HAD FREQUENT CONVERSATIONS WITH THE JURY. THEY ASKED ABOUT OPINIONS. PRESSURING THEM TO REACH A VERDICT, AND ALSO INVENTED A STORY THAT DOES SHE BELIEVE MOOD IN FAVOR OF THE DEFENSE. WE ALSO ASKED DURING THE PRESS CONFERENCE THIS AFTERNOON, HAVE ANY OF THEM REACHED OUT TO BECKY HILL? APPARENTLY, THEY HAVEN'T. >> ONE OF THE NEXT STEPS? WHAT ARE THE TIMELINE THEY ARE LOOKING AT? >> SO RIGHT NOW, I THINK THE MOTION HAS BEEN FILED. THEY HAVE 10 DAYS TO RESPOND. WE WILL BE COUNTING DOWN THOSE DAYS TO SEE EXEC HEN WE WILL HAVE THE HEARING. >> ALL RIGHT, THANK YOU. LISTEN, BURNING MAN IS FINALLY STARTING TO CLEAR UP. THOUSAND PEOPLE BEGAN THE EXODUS OUT OF THAT MUGGY FIELD. LOOK AT THIS. THESE ARE SOME OF THE LINES AS PEOPLE WERE STARTING TO LEAVE. SIX MILES, EIGHT HOURS, RIGHT THAT IS MAJOR GRIDLOCK. THE LITERAL BURNING OF THE MAN, WHICH IS KIND OF THE POINT OF THE FESTIVAL, WHICH IS WHAT IT IS NAMED FOR, THE BURNING MAN FESTIVAL. >> WE ARE AT THE MAIN ENTRANCE IN AND OUT OF BURNING MAN. YOU CAN SEE THE LONG LINE OF CARS HERE. BUMPER TO BUMPER, MAKING THEIR WAY OUT THE SO-CALLED EXIT IS HERE. LESS THAN MAKES ME FOUR HOURS AGO, PARTS OF IT WERE COVERED IN MUD. NOW THINGS HAVE DRIED UP. IT IS IS THE LONG HAUL OUT OF HERE. IT IS A LONG END TO WOULD HAVE BEEN A REALLY TRYING FEW DAYS FOR A LOT OF THE ATTENDEES AFTER TORRENTIAL RAIN CAUSING THE DESERT SAND HERE TO TURN INTO STICKY, WET MUD. PEOPLE HAVING TO HIKE OUT FOR MILES TO GET OUT. FOR THOSE WHO DID WAIT IT OUT AND ARE JUST MAKING THEIR WAY INTO CIVILIZATION, THEY TELL US THEY ARE VERY RELIEVED TO BE GOING HOME. BURNING MAN DEFINITELY ATTRACTS THE PEOPLE THAT WANT TO LIVE OFF THE GRID. THIS WHOLE ORDEAL HAS PUT EVEN THE MOST RELIANT TO TEST. >> -- REPORTING THERE FROM NEVADA. >>> SEPTEMBER IS NOT REALLY GETTING THE MEMO THAT LABOR DAY MEANS THE SUMMER IS SUPPOSED TO BE OVER. 75 MILLION OF US WINNING IT OUT UNDER HEAT ALERT. LOOK AT THIS FROM TEXAS AND THE UPPER MIDWEST, ALL THE WAY TO THE NORTHEAST. THIS IS NOT NORMAL. THIS IS NOT NORMAL FOR THIS TIME OF THE YEAR. WE HAVE ALREADY HAD A RECORD TODAY, 98 DEGREES. MORE THAN 80 RECORDS IN ALL POSSIBLE BY THE END OF THE DAY. SOME SCHOOLS IN DETROIT AD TO SHUT DOWN TOTALLY TO THE DAY. OTHER SCHOOLS IN NEW JERSEY AND PHILLY LET OUT EARLY BECAUSE THEY ARE HAVING PROBLEMS WITH AC. THEY DON'T HAVE ENOUGH AC TO COOL DOWN THESE CLASSROOMS THAT ARE JUST GETTING SO BLISTERING HOT. THEY WERE UNABLE TO BE OUTSIDE. >> A LOT ALWAYS WONDER, FLORIDA GOES TO SCHOOL IN THE MIDDLE OF AUGUST. A LOT OF THE SOUTHERN AREAS HAVE ALREADY BEEN IN SCHOOL FOR THREE WEEKS. A LOT OF THE NORTHERN PLACES JUST DON'T HAVE THE AIR CONDITIONING LIKE THAT. WHEN THEY START SCHOOL AND IT IS HOT LIKE THIS, THEY DON'T HAVE A WAY TO COOL THE CLASSROOMS. IT IS MISERABLE FOR THE STUDENTS AND TEACHERS. 75 MILLION ARE INCLUDED. THIS TYPE OF THE YEAR, THE SON IS -- YOU ONLY HAVE LIKE 12-13 HOURS OF DAYLIGHT. IT HAS REALLY BEEN IN TWO OR THREE SPOTS. THIS IS THE END OF YOUR HEAT IN MINNEAPOLIS. CONGRATULATIONS TO YOU. DALLAS, DEL RIO, HOUSTON. YOU WILL HAVE TO DO QUITE A BIT LONGER. MID ATLANTIC, YOU MIGHT HAD TO WAIT UNTIL READY TO FEEL SOME RELIEF. BALTIMORE, EVEN NORTHERN NEW ENGLAND. THERE IS SOME COLOR. IT IS LIKE 90 DEGREES. HAD TO GET THAT WHOLE PUMPKIN SPICE LATTE THING WHEN YOU ARE SWEATING IT OUT WITH TEMPERATURES LIKE THIS. HERE ARE TEMPERATURES ON FRIDAY FOR YOU, HALLIE. IT IS THE SAME IN D.C. 89 FRIDAY. IT DOES KIND OF GET BACK TO NORMAL, BUT IT IS NOT LIKE A DRY -- THE HUMIDITY WILL STILL BE PRETTY HARD TO THE UPCOMING WEEKEND. >> SHOULD EVEN BE TALKING ABOUT A TROPICAL STORM THAT IS BREWING IN THE ATLANTIC YET? OR DO WE NEED TO HOLD OUR POWER ON THAT ONE FOR NOW? >> THE WAY SOCIAL MEDIA IS, I ALREADY -- WE KIND OF HAD TO GET AHEAD OF IT WITH THE MESSAGING. WHENEVER THERE IS A WARM, HE GETS A LOT OF ATTENTION. PEOPLE ARE SAYING, OH, THERE IS A NEW MAJOR HURRICANE. AND THEN THE ANXIETY LEVELS BUILD. IT IS LITTLE OVER 1000 MILES FROM EVEN GETTING TO ST. LUCIA, ALL OF THE NORTHERN LEEWARD ISLANDS. IT HAS A LONG WAY TO GO. WE WILL HAVE CHANGES, IT WILL NOT BE PERFECT. WE HAVE A GENERAL IDEA THAT WITH THE STEERING PATTERN FOR AT LEAST THE NEXT 5-DAYS. AFTER THAT, IT GETS A LITTLE MORE IFFY. THIS IS JUST NORTH OF THE U.S. VIRGIN ISLANDS AND PUERTO RICO. YOU ARE CLOSE ENOUGH THAT I'M SURE YOU DON'T LIKE IT, AND YOU ESPECIALLY DO NOT LIKE IT WHEN YOU SEE THIS HURRICANE SYMBOL, CATEGORIES 1, 2, AND THEN THE MAJOR 3-5. CONDITIONS ARE FAVORABLE. THIS COULD EVEN GET UP TO A CATEGORY 5 AT SOME POINT. EVERYONE WANTS TO KNOW, WHAT IS APPLE COMPUTER SAYING? THEY ARE IN AGREEMENT, NOT HITTING ANY LAND IN SEVEN DAYS FROM NOW. I DON'T LIKE THAT AT ALL. AND THEN A LOOK AT OUR AMERICAN MODEL, THIS IS THE -- A GLOBAL MODEL. EACH OF THESE REDLINES, WE KIND OF CHANGE IT AND TWEAK A LITTLE BIT TO SEE WHAT DIFFERENT OUTCOMES WE GET. IT IS ALSO VERY CONSISTENT. RIGHT NOW, WE ARE OOKING AT ANYTHING HEADING TOWARD FLORIDA, THE BAHAMAS, PUERTO RICO. THAT WOULD BE ABOUT 7-8 DAYS FROM NOW. WANT TO KEEP A LOOK ON THE OUTER BANKS. I'LL BE TALKING ABOUT THE STORM NEXT WEEK AT THIS TIME. IT PROBABLY WON'T EVEN BE GONE UNTIL NOT THIS WEEKEND, BUT THE WEEKEND AFTER THAT. GET USED TO TO HEARING ABOUT THE A LOT. >> WE HAVE SEEN PRESIDENT BIDEN TAKEN OFF HIS MASK TO AWARD THE MEDAL OF HONOR TO A VIETNAM ARMY HELICOPTER PILOT, JUST AFTER THE FIRST LADY TESTED POSITIVE FOR COVID. YOU SEE THE PRESIDENT AND THAT VETERAN HERE. HE IS 81 YEARS OLD. THE PRESIDENT TESTED NEGATIVE FOR COVID TODAY, WE FOUND OUT. THAT IS A FACT THAT HE IS GIVING THE METAL HERE. ALL OF IT, AHEAD OF A JAMPACKED SCHEDULE FOR HIM. IT IS A CONCERN NOW GROWING THAT HE MIGHT GET SICK WHILE OVERSEAS OMA HE COULD POTENTIALLY SPREAD THE VIRUS WHILE TRAVELING. RIGHT NOW, THE U.S. IS DEALING WITH HIS LATE-SUMMER SURGE. HOSPITALIZATIONS ARE UP SOMETHING LIKE 20% IN THE MIDDLE TO END OF AUGUST THERE. REMEMBER, THESE NUMBERS WERE 10 TIMES WHAT THEY ARE AT PEAK COVID. IT IS NOT PEAK ANYMORE, BUT IT IS A PEEK AT WHAT THIS WALKABOUT RIGHT. MONICA IS COVERING THIS. LET ME START WITH YOU HERE. LISTEN, THIS -- THAT IS CLEARLY NOT THE CASE AS WE LOOK AT THE NUMBERS. IT SEEMS LIKE THE WHITE HOUSE IS ALSO CHANGING IT FROM WHAT IT WAS NEARLY A YEAR AND A HALF OF THE WITH THE FIRST LADY TESTING POSITIVE. THE PRESIDENT IS GOING ON THE STRIP SEEING WORLD LEADERS, AIDES AND ADVISERS. HE IS STILL ON THE TAIL END, AND AFTER THIS EXPOSURE. TALK ME THROUGH ABOUT HOW THE ADMINISTRATION WILL HANDLE THIS. >> IT IS SOMETHING THEY REALLY HAVE CONFRONTED SINCE HE TOOK OFFICE. ANYONE WHO MEETS WITH THE PRESIDENT, THEY HAVE TO TO TAKE A COVID TEST. THAT IS STILL THE CASE NEARLY THREE YEARS INTO THE ADMINISTRATION BECAUSE OF COURSE THEY WILL WANT TO CONTAIN AND KNOW ABOUT ANY CASE. WHAT HAPPENED YESTERDAY, THE FIRST LADY DID TEST POSITIVE. SHE SPENT THE WHOLE WEEKEND WITH THE PRESIDENT. THEY WENT TO FLORIDA TO LOOK AT THE HURRICANE AFTERMATH AND THE DAMAGE THERE. WE KNOW ALSO THAT THE FIRST LADY HAD BEEN TRAVELING ALL LAST WEEK AS PART OF HER OFFICIAL DUTIES. THE WHITE HOUSE OFFICIAL SAID, LOOK, THIS COULD HAPPEN TO ANY AMERICAN. WE NOW HAVE THE TOOLS LIKE VACCINE, BOOSTERS, TRYING TO TAKE SOME KIND OF PRECAUTION WHEN THESE THINGS HAPPEN. HE TESTED NEGATIVE LAST NIGHT, AND AGAIN TONIGHT. WE ARE LEARNING A LITTLE BIT MORE FROM THE WHITE HOUSE ON WHAT OTHER STEPS THEY ARE TAKING RIGHT NOW. HERE'S A LITTLE BIT FROM THE BRIEFING EARLIER. >> AS FAR AS THE STEPS HE IS TAKING, SINCE THE PRESIDENT LIVES WITH THE FIRST LADY, HE WILL BE MASKING WHILE INDOORS AND AROUND PEOPLE. HE WILL REMOVE HIS MASK WHEN DISTANCE FROM OTHERS INDOORS, AND WHILE OUTSIDE, AS WELL. >> SO HE WILL BE WEARING A MASK INDOORS AT EVENTS. LIKELY WHEN HE ARRIVED IN INDIA FOR THE SUMMIT, FOR SOME OF THOSE MEETINGS, HE MIGHT HAVE TO WEAR A MASK. HE MIGHT STILL BE IN THAT WINDOW OF EXPOSURE. WE KNOW THEY HAVE THEIR OWN GUIDANCE. THE WHITE HOUSE IS FOLLOWING THAT VERY CLOSELY. AT THIS POINT, THEY SAY THEY ARE NOT MAKING ANY CHANGES TO THE PLANS. >> MONICA, THANK YOU SO MUCH. THAT TEASE YOU UP NICELY HERE. LET'S TALK ABOUT IT -- >> I THINK ON THE TAIL END, ARE IN THE MIDDLE OF THE SURGE WE ARE HAVING, WE ARE PROBABLY IN A BETTER POSITION THAN WE HAVE EVER BEEN AT ANY TIME IN THE PANDEMIC. WHY DO I SAY THAT? FROM PEOPLE HAVING GOTTEN SICK, BEING VACCINATED AND BOOSTED. WE HAVE AN ANTIVIRAL THAT WORKS INCREDIBLY WELL. IT STILL WORKS AGAINST ALL THE NEW VARIANTS, AND WE HAVE A NEW BOOSTER. IN THE NEXT COUPLE OF WEEKS, THE CDC IS MEETING NEXT WEDNESDAY. OR NEXT TUESDAY, I BELIEVE. RECOMMENDATIONS IN TERMS OF WHO SHOULD BE IN HIGH PRIORITY FOR THAT BOOSTER. WE LIKE TO THINK OF COVID AS A THING OF THE PAST. IT ISN'T. IT IS VERY MUCH LIKE THE FLU, IF NOT WORSE. WE HAVE THE TOOLS IN THE TOOLBOX. PEOPLE JUST HAD TO DO THOSE THINGS. REMEMBER, GET YOUR BOOSTER, CHECK UP ON THE WEBSITE TO SEE IF YOUR TESTS ARE EXPIRED. MASK WHEN YOU AREN'T FEELING WELL. USE TESTING TO YOUR ADVANTAGE. >> THANK YOU SO MUCH. WE APPRECIATE IT. >> WE ARE JUST HEARING TONIGHT FROM THE SENATE'S TOP REPUBLICAN, MITCH McCONNELL, LIZ BACK IN CAPITOL HILL AFTER HIS SECOND FREEZE UP. HE IS ALLUDING TO, BUT NOT SAYING A TON ABOUT HIS HEALTH. >> A PARTICULAR MOMENT OF MY TIME AT HOME HAS RECEIVED ITS FAIR SHARE OF ATTENTION IN THE PRESS OVER THE PAST WEEK. I ASSURE YOU, ALL OF THIS WAS A BUSY AND PRODUCTIVE MONTH FOR ME AND MY STAFF. >> THE CAPITOL DOCTOR SAYS TODAY THERE ARE NO SIGNS THAT THE SENATOR HAS HAD A SEIZURE DISORDER OR A STROKE, AFTER BOTH OF THOSE EPISODES DURING RECESS, AND THE ONE BEFORE THAT. CONGRESS COMES IN, ALREADY SHAPING UP TO BE A BUSY SEPTEMBER FOR SENATOR McCONNELL. MITCH McCONNELL WAS NOT ASKED DIRECTLY ABOUT WHAT HAPPENED DURING THE SECOND FREEZE UP IN KENTUCKY. HE ALLUDED TO IT THERE. WE KNOW THEY DON'T OFTEN TAKE QUESTIONS, BUT GIVE ME A SENSE OF WHAT IT IS LIKE? AND WHAT ARE YOU HEARING FROM PEOPLE BEHIND THE SCENES? >> THAT'S RIGHT, HALLIE. HE WILL HAVE HIS FIRST -- BACK FROM RECESS TOMORROW AFTERNOON. THAT IS USUALLY A DAY AFTER THE SENATE COMES BACK AT THE BEGINNING OF THE WEEK. McCONNELL AND HIS OFFICE HAVE TRIED TO PROJECT THE IMAGE THAT EVERYTHING IS FINE. HE IS READY TO GET BACK TO WORK. IT WAS SIMPLY A SENSE OF LIGHTHEADEDNESS. HE RELEASED THIS LETTER FROM THE CAPITOL, ATTENDING PHYSICIANS EARLIER TODAY. HE SAYS, QUOTE, THERE IS NO EVIDENCE THAT YOU HAVE A SEIZURE DISORDER, OR THAT YOU HAVE EXPERIENCED A STROKE, OR -- DISORDER, SUCH AS PARKINSON'S DISEASE. >> HAD TO THE OTHERS FEEL ABOUT THIS? THEY CAN'T DO ANYTHING TO FORCE HIM TO STEP DOWN. KENTUCKY VOTERS DON'T GET ESSAY ON WHAT HAPPENS TO THAT SEAT. BEFORE THEM, IT IS THESE 40 REPUBLICANS WHO WOULD DECIDE WHETHER OR NOT. MY COLLEAGUES AND I SPENT THE LAST HOUR, HOUR AND A HALF AS ABOUT THIS. FOR THE MOST PART, THEY DON'T APPEAR MOVED AT ALL. THEY TALK TO HIM YESTERDAY, SEVERAL DAYS SINCE IT HAS HAPPENED. THEY DON'T BELIEVE HE HAS THE ABILITY TO LEAD. ONE, SENATOR MITT ROMNEY TOLD ME, QUOTE, WE MIGHT LOSE 20 SECONDS A DAY, BUT THE OTHERS ARE JUST FINE. I'M HAPPY TO HAVE THAT LATER. IT IS UNCLEAR IF THIS WILL CHANGE OVER THE NEXT FEW DAYS. >> THAT WAS SENATOR MITT ROMNEY ON THE RECORD. OKAY, I MISS THAT. I WOULD IMAGINE IT BECAUSE I MIGHT WILL WANT TO GO ON THE RECORD WITH THAT. FOR SENATOR ROMNEY FOR THAT MATTER, THEY ARE NOT COMING BACK TO A PARTICULARLY RELAXED SEPTEMBER. THERE IS A LOT GOING ON THIS MONTH. AND THAT POTENTIAL GOVERNMENT SHUTDOWN JUST, WHAT? 25 DAYS FROM NOW QUICK NOT EVEN. >> NOT VERY RELAXED. IT WILL BE A JAMPACKED FRENZIED SEPTEMBER, FULL OF DEADLINES. THE BIGGEST ONE, SEPTEMBER 30th. THEY WILL HAD TO PASS A BILL THAT PREVENTS A SHUTDOWN. ALSO, MOVING OVER ALL OF THIS IS A POTENTIAL IMPEACHMENT INQUIRY. OF COURSE, THEY HAD CONCERNS ABOUT McCONNELL, AS WELL. DIANE, WHO ALSO SAID SHE IS NOT GOING ANYWHERE UNTIL 2025, AND THEN WHAT THEY DO ABOUT THE UKRAINE FUNDING. A LOT OF FIGHTS ARE BEING DRIVEN. >> THANK YOU VERY MUCH. APPRECIATE IT. SPEAKING OF THINGS GOING DOWN. NOON NEWS. NEWLY FILED DOCUMENTS IN THE CASE AGAINST GEORGE SANTOS AND HIS FORMER CAMPAIGNED AID. THE TWO SIDES ARE ACTIVELY DISCUSSING POSSIBLE PATHS FORWARD, WHICH MAY BE CODE OR A SIGNAL THAT THEY ARE WORKING ON A PLEA DEAL. MAYBE. THIS IS JUST A FEW MONTHS AFTER THE CONTROVERSIAL CONGRESSMAN WAS CHARGED WITH A BUNCH OF CRIMES INCLUDING FRAUD, THEFT, MONEY LAUNDERING. JUST LAST MONTH, ONE OF THE CAMPAIGN AIDES WAS CHARGED WITH IMPERSONATING THE CHIEF OF TO PULL IN DONATIONS FOR THE CONGRESSMAN AND HIMSELF. WILL BE WATCHING THE STORY AS IT DEVELOPS. >>> COMING OUT, STRONG WORDS USED BY GEORGE'S ATTORNEY GENERAL. PLUS, SOMETHING FISHY AT THE -- DENVER ZOO. THE RUSH TO GIVE ONE FISH A CT SCAN, AND HOW ZOOKEEPERS PULLED IT OFF. THEY WITH US >>> NEW FALLOUT IN THE WOMEN'S WORLD CUP KISS CONTROVERSY. ONE SPANISH SOCCER LEADER IS OUT OF A JOB. MAYBE NOT THE ONE YOU WOULD WANT TO EXPECT. WE WILL EXPLAIN. THE CARMAKERS IN THE AUTOMAKERS UNION TO TRY TO AVOID A STRIKE. IT COULD HAVE A BIG IMPACT, LOOKING TO BUY A CAR, OR FIX A CAR THERE READY HAVE. NEW CARS AND CAR PARTS. WHAT IS AT STAKE HERE? HERE IS WHAT THE UNION WANTS, THEY WANT MORE MONEY. A 46% PAY RAISE. A 42 HOUR WEEK WITH 40 HOURS OF PAY, AND TRADITIONAL PENSION BENEFITS. RESIDENT BIDEN SAYS HE IS NOT CONCERNED. HE DOESN'T ACTUALLY THINK WE WILL GET TO THE POINT OF A STRIKE. SOME INDUSTRY EXPERTS DISAGREE. THEY THINK A STRIKE SEEMS MORE LIKELY THAN NOT. THE QUESTION IS, HOW BIG WILL IT BE? WILL THEY WALK OUT ON FORD, GM, AND -- TOM COSTELLO IS JOINING US NOW. WHAT ABOUT THIS POTENTIAL STRIKE ON THE SHOW, TOM. AND HERE WE ARE WITH THE CLOCK TICKING. >> 10 DAYS AWAY UNTIL 146,000 POTENTIALLY WALK OFF THE JOB. MOST EXPERTS I TALKED TO THINK IT WILL HAPPEN. INSIDERS THINK IT WILL HAPPEN, AS WELL. WHAT DOES THIS MEAN FOR YOU AND ME? IF WE WANTED TO GO BY AN AMERICAN MADE CAR, THERE IS A PRETTY GOOD CHANCE THAT IN THE COMING WEEKS AND MONTHS, PRICES WILL GO UP. THERE WILL BE FEWER OPTIONS FOR US. AND THEN THERE'S ALSO THE POSSIBILITY, AS YOU SUGGESTED, THAT WE WILL HAVE TO PAY MORE FOR THE CARPORTS. ALL OF THAT BECAUSE WE ARE TALKING ABOUT THE BIG THREE. THEY DON'T CALL THEM THE BIG 3 FOR NOTHING. >> THIS IS A BIG DEAL, ESPECIALLY WITH THE CARS THAT ARE THERE NOW. I THINK THERE IS ONE CAR YOU CAN GET UNDER 20 GRAND. THINGS ARE EXPENSIVE. WE KNOW THERE IS A LABOR MOVEMENT THAT IS HAPPENING NOW. IT WILL KIND OF LEVERAGE DOES THE AUTOMAKERS UNION HAVE? >> WAS HAVING A LOT OF LEVERAGE. THEY MAY BE PLAYING A LITTLE BIT OVER HERE. I MEAN, MOST EXPERTS SAY THAT IS HIGHLY UNLIKE ME. EVEN THE UNION PRESIDENT SAYS, THIS IS VERY AUDACIOUS. I WOULD SAY, IT IS AUDACIOUS. SURE, THEY WANT 46% MORE MONEY, AND THEY WANT TO WORK AT A 32 HOUR WEEK, BUT GET PAID FOR 40. YOU AND I WOULD STATE THAT, TOO, RIGHT? YOU ARE RIGHT. HERE'S THE THING, RIGHT NOW, THEY HAVE LEVERAGE. AS A RESULT OF THAT, NOT ENOUGH WORKERS. AND LISTEN, THEY KNOW THE COMPANIES HAVE HIGH DEMAND FOR THEIR VEHICLES RIGHT NOW. THEY ARE PAYING TOP DOLLAR. WHAT ABOUT THE ASSEMBLY LINE SHUTTING DOWN BECAUSE THERE AREN'T ENOUGH WORKERS? WHAT WILL YOU DO? THEY ARE RIGHT. THE UNIONS RIGHT NOW MIGHT HAVE THE UPPER HAND. >> THANK YOU. LET'S GET TO THE FIVE THINGS OUR TEAM THINKS YOU SHOULD KNOW ABOUT TONIGHT. NUMBER ONE, FORMER WHITE HOUSE CHIEF OF STAFF, MARK MEADOWS, AND ALL THE OTHERS IN THAT CASE IN GEORGIA, THEY HAVE NOW PLEADED NOT GUILTY. THEY HAVE ALSO WAIVED THEIR ARRAIGNMENTS. FORMER PRESIDENT TRUMP PLEADED NOT GUILTY. HUNDREDS OF UNITED FLIGHTS ARE STILL DELAYED TONIGHT AFTER A NATIONWIDE GROUND STOP EARLIER TODAY. THAT IS BECAUSE OF A APPARENTLY COMPUTER WIDE OUTAGE. OBVIOUSLY YOU ARE NOT LOOKING AT UNITED, BUT I'M STILL TELLING YOU ABOUT IT, BECAUSE THAT IS WHAT HAPPENED. >> THE AIRLINE IS STILL TRYING TO FIGURE OUT WHAT HAPPENED. PROSECUTORS HAVE INDICTED 61 PEOPLE ON RACKETEERING CHARGES AFTER FAILED INVESTIGATIONS INTO PROTESTS AGAINST WHAT CRITTERS -- CRITICS CALL -- THE INDICTMENT IS THE LATEST USE OF THE STATES RICO LAW. REMEMBER, THE LAW THAT WAS USED TO CHARGE FORMER PRESIDENT TRUMP. HELPING IDENTIFY AUTISM IN CHILDREN IS YOUNGEST 18 MONTHS OLD. THERE IS A SPECIAL DEVICE THAT ATTRACTS THE PATIENT'S EYES AS THEY WATCH A VIDEO OF TWO OTHER CHILDREN. MOST FOCUS ON THAT INTERACTION, THE KIDS THEY ARE SEEING ON SCREEN. THE TODDLER'S LADY THAT WAS LATER DIAGNOSED LOOK AT OTHER SPOTS IN THE VIDEOS. NUMBER FIVE, OFFICIALS AT A DENVER ZOO SAY A FRENCH ANGELFISH IS DOING BETTER AFTER IT WAS FOUND FLOATING LOPSIDED. THE ZOO DID A CT SCAN ON THE FISH. THEY ACTUALLY HAD TO SEDATE IT FIRST. LOOK AT THAT. THEY HAD TO BALANCE THEM ON A SPONGE, THEN POUR WATER SO WE CAN BREATHE. THE DIAGNOSIS, TOO MUCH GAS BECAUSE OF AN INFECTION. MOVING ON. COMING UP HERE IN THE SHOW, IMPEACHMENT ON THE TABLE IN TEXAS. WHILE SOME LAWMAKERS ARE TRYING TO GET RID OF ONE OF THEIR OWN. THIS IS WHAT WE ARE LEARNING OF THE IMPACT. LOOK AT THAT. THAT IS COMING UP. ♪ ♪ AND YOUR WALLET. >> SOME REALLY GREAT LAST- MINUTE DEALS IF YOU HAVE FLEXIBILITY. >> WEEKDAYS FROM 12:00 TO 4:00 P.M. EASTERN. >>> TONIGHT IN TEXAS, THE IMPEACHMENT TRIAL ONE OF THE MOST HIGH PROFILE ATTORNEY GENERALS IN THE COUNTRY IS KICKING OFF. A RARE CASE THAT HAVE REPUBLICANS IN A DEEP RED STATE TAKING ON ONE OF THEIR OWN. KEN PAXTON, PLEADING NOT GUILTY IN THE TEXAS CHAMBER . ALL 20 ARTICLES OF IMPEACHMENT, INCLUDING CHARGES OF CORRUPTION, ABUSE OF PUBLIC TRUST, LYING ON OFFICIAL RECORDS. YOU SEE THE LIST HERE GOES ON. THE STATE SENATE IS DECIDING WHETHER OR NOT TO REMOVE HIM FROM OFFICE. HE SAYS HE WILL FIGHT THESE ALLEGATIONS. IT SOUNDS LIKE WE ARE NOW HERE AT 6:37 EASTERN TIME, THINGS HAS SORT OF SHUT DOWN FOR THE DAY. THIS WILL LAST PROBABLY, WHAT? TWO OR THREE WEEKS? WALK US THROUGH IT. >> YEAH, WE JUST ADJOURNED FOR THE DAY. MAYBE AN HOUR INTO THE PRESENTATION, ABOUT 27 HOURS TO ARGUE THEIR CASE. THAT INCLUDES PRESENTING WITNESSES, CROSS EXAMINATIONS. IT IS FASCINATING HERE IN TEXAS. WE ARE LOOKING AT REPUBLICAN REPRESENTATIVES ARGUING AGAINST REPUBLICAN ATTORNEY GENERAL. WHAT IS MOST INTERESTING TO ME ABOUT TODAY, PAXTON WILL NOT BE FORCED TO TAKE THE STANCE. THE HOUSE MANAGER FOUGHT TO PUT HIM ON THE STAND. HE SAID HE MAY TAKE THE FIFTH. I'M SORRY, LIEUTENANT GOVERNOR DAN PATRICK SAY THEY WOULD NOT COMPEL HIM TO TAKE THE STAND, GIVING A WIN TO THE PAXTON CAN'T. ANOTHER BIG TAKE AWAY, JUST HOW MANY REPUBLICAN SENATORS JOINED TO VOTE AGAINST MAKING THESE ARTICLES OF IMPEACHMENT. THEY COULD HAVE STOPPED THIS, AND THEY CHOSE NOT TO. >> TALK TO ME ABOUT THE BROADER IMPLICATIONS HERE. WHAT I THINK IS SUPER INTERESTING ABOUT THIS, REPUBLICANS IN A RED STATE GOING AFTER ANOTHER REPUBLICAN. NOT JUST ANY REPUBLICAN, BUT SOMEONE WHO DOES HAVE A NATIONAL PROFILE. SOMEONE WHO IS AN ALLY. THAT IS WHAT MAKES THIS FEEL LIKE SUCH A BIG DEAL. >> YEAH, YOU KNOW, HE WAS A REPUBLICAN FIRE BRANCH, FIGHTING DONALD TRUMPS THE BATTLES FROM HERE IN AUSTIN. HIS POLITICAL POWER IS TIED AT SOME POINT TO PRESIDENT DONALD TRUMP. IT HAS ALSO BEEN TAKEN AS POLITICAL SUPPORT WITHIN THE STATE. THESE ARE INTERTWINED GROUP OF PEOPLE. A LOT OF THESE, THEY WOULD BE QUALIFIED IN ANY OTHER CASE. THEY ARE INVOLVED WITH THE IMPEACHMENT ARTICLES. THEY HAVE BEEN MENTIONED BECAUSE OF THE CONVERSATIONS IN THE ACTIONS HE TOOK. AT THE END OF THE DAY, PAXTON'S POLITICAL POWER IS BEING TESTED. SO IS DONALD TRUMPS POLITICAL POWER. >> LIVE FOR AS THEY ARE IN AUSTIN. WE WILL SEE HOW THAT GOES. THANKS. NBC NEWS COVERS HUNDREDS OF INTERNATIONAL STORIES EVERYDAY. BECAUSE IT IS TOUGH TO LISTEN TO THEM ALL, WE HAVE DONE IT FOR YOU. HERE IS A LOOK AT WHAT THEY ARE WATCHING IN A SEGMENT WE CALL THE GULLIBLE. A STATE OF EMERGENCY BECAUSE OF ALL THIS FLOODING. MORE THAN 60 EVACUATED. LOOK AT THIS. SOME CARS, JUST TOTALLY UNDERWATER LIKE THAT. OFFICIALS SAY PEOPLE SHOULD NOT DRINK THE TAP WATER THERE, AS IT HAS BEEN CONTAMINATED. OUT OF HONG KONG, THE TOP QUOTE RULING. THEY HAD TO HAVE A FRAMEWORK FOR RECOGNIZING SAME-SEX PARTNERSHIP. ADVOCATES THINK IT IS A LANDMARK VICTORY FOR THE LGBTQ+ COMMUNITY THERE. THE GOVERNOR HAS TWO YEARS TO FIGURE OUT WHAT THIS FRAMEWORK ACTUALLY LOOKS LIKE. DOCTORS FOUND A -- MEDICAL TOOL INSIDE A WOMAN. IT SAYS DOCTORS ACCIDENTALLY LEFT THE TOOL INSIDE OF HER AFTER A C-SECTION. IT WAS IN HER FOR LIKE A YEAR. SHE WENT TO THE DOCTOR, SHE SAID SHE HAD A REALLY INTENSE PAIN. FOR MONTHS, SHE'S BEEN IN PAIN. THE COMMISSIONERS AT THE HEALTH BOARD FAILED TO TAKE CARE OF HER. THEY APOLOGIZED HER, BUT OFFICIALS SAY -- IN THE NEXT FEW WEEKS. >>> A BIG WEEK FOR A LOT OF STUDENTS HEADING BACK TO SCHOOL. THE DISTRICTS ARE PREPARED TO BE OVERWHELMED BY NEW STUDENTS. GROWING CONCERNS ABOUT OVERCROWDING IN CLASSROOMS. WHAT IT MEANS FOR KIDS ACROSS THE COUNTRY? WE HAVE MORE. >> THEY ARE DEALING WITH AN ONGOING MIGRANT INFLUX. THE SCHOOL YEAR IS SET TO AGAIN THURSDAY WITH A SURGE OF NEW STUDENTS. >> THE LATEST ROUND OF WHAT WE HAVE BEEN RECEIVING, LARGE NUMBER OF THOSE ARE CHILDREN AND FAMILIES. >> SINCE LAST JULY, NEARLY 19,000 STUDENTS IN TEMPORARY HOUSING, MANY MIGRANTS, HAVE ENROLLED IN CITY SCHOOLS. ALL KIDS BETWEEN AGES 5-21 ARE GUARANTEED A PUBLIC EDUCATION, REGARDLESS OF IMMIGRATION STATUS. >> WE COMPLETELY CHANGED THE FUNDING FORMULA TO PROVIDE ADDITIONAL FUNDING TO SCHOOLS BASED ON THE NUMBER OF STUDENTS IN TEMPORARY HOUSING THEY ENROLL. >> THEY WARY SCHOOLS WILL BE STRETCHED TOO THIN. >> I FEAR WE ARE NOT PREPPED TO HELP THEM. WE SHOULD BE. >> IT COMES AS A GROWING NUMBER OF ASYLUM-SEEKERS ARE ARRIVING IN IT IS NATIONWIDE. MANY STILL STUCK IN HOUSING AND OTHER MAKESHIFT SHELTERS. IT HAS BECOME A FLASHPOINT FOR RESIDENTS AS MORE MIGRANTS ARRIVED BY THE BUSLOADS, THEY RUN FROM VENEZUELA LAST MONTH WITH THEIR THREE DAUGHTERS. THEIR DREAM, A BETTER QUALITY OF LIFE FOR SHE AND HER CHILDREN. STEPHANIE, NBC NEWS. >>> COMING UP ON THE SHOW, WE WOULD SAY WHY MILLIONS OF WORKING PARENTS ARE REALLY CONCERNED ABOUT WHAT MIGHT HAPPEN AT THE END OF THE MONTH. WE WILL EXPLAIN ABOUT THE CHILDCARE CENTER MONEY RUNNING OUT ALL ACROSS THE MODERATOR. >> THIS SUNDAY, MEET THE PRESS NOW. >> TONIGHT'S ORIGINAL WITH IN- DEPTH REPORTING ON A TOPIC WE'VE BEEN WATCHING. TONIGHT, IT IS A CRISIS. GETTING CLOSER AND CLOSER. IT COULD BE MILLIONS OF KIDS, AND THEIR WORKING CAREGIVERS -- FEDERAL MONEY APPROVED DURING THE PANDEMIC IS RUNNING OUT. VISITING THE CHILDCARE CENTER ABOUT THE HARD DECISIONS HAVING TO BE MADE WHEN THAT MONEY DRIES UP. >> IT IS STORYTIME HERE THE DEVELOPMENT CENTER IN CONNECTICUT. THIS IS MILA, SHE IS FOUR YEARS OLD. ONE THINGS FOR SURE, SHE'S HAPPY HERE. >> I LOVE MY SCHOOL, MY TEACHERS. MY TEACHERS TEACH ME HOW TO LEARN STUFF. >> SEE YOU LATER, ALLIGATOR. >> IT IS HARD TO FIND QUALITY CHILDCARE. I FEEL LIKE IT IS IMPORTANT TO HAVE A SCHOOL LIKE THIS YOU KNOW. FOR ALL THE CHILDREN TO HAVE AN OPPORTUNITY TO LEARN AND GROW. >> IT MAY NEED TO DOWNSIZE. BILLIONS OF DOLLARS IN PANDEMIC FEDERAL FUNDING FOR CHILD CARE IS SET TO EXPIRE AT THE END OF THE MONTH. ACROSS THE COUNTRY, 3.2 MILLION KIDS CUT LOOSE CHILDCARE WITH 70,000 PROGRAMS EXPECTED TO CLOSE. >> WE DEFINITELY WON'T BE OKAY. >> SHE IS RUNNING THROUGH SCENARIOS FOR WHEN THE FUNDING DRIES UP. >> THEY COULD BE SAYING, THERE WOULD BE A DASH OF CLOTHES BASED ON THE FUNDING. THAT MEANS YOU CAN HAVE 20 OR 30 CHILDREN THAT WILL NOT BE ATTENDING PRESCHOOL ANYMORE. >> AND THERE IS A RIPPLE EFFECT. WITH SOME KIDS NOT IN SCHOOL, WORKING PARENTS MY NEED TO CHANGE OR LEAVE THEIR JOBS. EXPERTS SAY IT HAS EXPOSED WITH A REALLY LONG-STANDING PROBLEM IS. >> THE SYSTEM REALLY HASN'T BEEN ADEQUATELY FUNDING THEIR RESOURCES. WHAT HAPPENED DURING THE PANDEMIC, IT REALLY MADE CLEAR THE SYSTEM. >> ON AVERAGE, CHILDCARE COULD COST ANYWHERE FROM ABOUT $5000 TO MORE THAN $15,000, ACCORDING TO GOVERNMENT DATA. YET, CHILDCARE WORKERS HAVE HISTORICALLY MADE LESS THAN THE NATIONAL AVERAGE. AS OF MAY 2022, THEY ONLY MADE ABOUT $14 AN HOUR. THAT IS LEADING SOME TO LEAVE THE INDUSTRY. >> I FEEL OUR CHILDCARE LIFE IS ON THE LINE. NOT WANTING TO STAY, OR GO LOOK FOR SOMETHING ELSE, BECAUSE THEY CAN GET HIGHER PAY AND MORE BENEFITS. >> THOSE WHO SAY SAY THAT THEY NEED MORE SUPPORT. >> SOMETIMES WE PURCHASE THINGS OUT OF OUR OWN POCKETS. IT SHOULDN'T BE LIKE THAT. WE SHOULD GET THE FUNDING TO SUPPLY THE SUPPLIES FOR NEW TOYS, BOOKS, FURNITURE, STUFF LIKE THAT. >> THERE ARE KIDS LIKE MILA WHO JUST WANT TO LEARN. >> IT IS INCREDIBLE TO SEE THESE KIDS, HOW MUCH THEY ARE GETTING OUT OF PROGRAMS LIKE THIS. WE KNOW THERE IS A LOT AT STAKE. IS THERE ANY RELIEF IN SIGHT? >> THE FIRST ANSWER IN SHORT ANSWER IS NO. CONGRESS IS TRYING TO DO SOMETHING. SOME INDIVIDUAL STATES. AS YOU POINT OUT, FOR DECADES, RESEARCH HAS INDICATED THAT CHILDCARE IS A LINCHPIN OF OUR ECONOMY. ALMOST 50 SOME ODD PERCENT OF AMERICAN HOUSEHOLDS ARE HEADED BY WOMEN WITH CHILDREN UNDER 18. OF COURSE, ALL OF THEM ARE NOT OF PRESCHOOL AGE. THIS IS ENORMOUSLY IMPORTANT. IF WOMEN AREN'T WORKING, THEY AREN'T EARNING. IF THEY AREN'T EARNING, THEY AREN'T SPENDING. ALSO JUST IN TERMS OF THE CHILDREN BEING READY, TO BE EFFECTIVE MEMBERS OF SOCIETY. GET THIS. CHILDREN WITH LOW INCOME FAMILIES ARE READY TO ONLY 24 HOURS BEFORE THEY GO TO KINDERGARTEN. THIS IS VERSUS THOUSANDS OF HOURS. WHO DO YOU THINK WILL BE READY FOR KINDERGARTEN, READY TO LEARN? AND READY TO BE PRODUCTIVE? IT MATTERS. >> THANK YOU SO MUCH FOR THAT IMPORTANT REPORTING. STILL TO COME, THE LATEST REACTION AFTER A FAN WAS THROWN OUT DURING A MATCH. WE ARE GETTING INTO WHAT HAPPENED NEXT. ♪ ♪ >>> MIXED UP, SOCCER SHAKEUPS IN SPAIN. ONLY WEEKS AFTER THEY WON THE WORLD CUP, A NEW COACH IS IN CHARGE. SHE IS LOOKING TO MAKE SOME CHANGES HERE. THIS IS JUST SOME OF THE LATEST FALLOUT AFTER THE PRESIDENT KISSED A PLAYER ON THE MOUTH. LET ME BE CRYSTAL CLEAR HERE. THE PERSON WHO GOT FIRED IS JORGE VILDA. THAT IS AMAZING HERE. THE PERSON WHO DID NOT GET FIRED, LUIS RUBIALES. HE IS THE GUY WHO GAVE THE UNWANTED KISS TO THE PLAYER. HE SAYS IT WAS CONSENSUAL. SHE SAID THAT AT NO TIME DID SHE CONSENT. THAT IS WHY WE ARE NOT ACTUALLY SHOWING YOU THAT MOMENT. JUST TODAY, THE INTERIM PRESIDENT PUT OUT A PRESIDENT STATEMENT, ACKNOWLEDGING THE DAMAGE CAUSED. HE IS SUSPENDED, 90 DAYS. THE STATEMENT ANNOUNCING THAT THE COACH CAUGHT THE MOVE, AND I'M QUOTING HERE, ONE OF THE FIRST MEASURES, WHICH MAY BE LATE THE DOOR OPEN TO MORE DOWN THE ROAD. HELP US UNDERSTAND THIS. IF IT IS LUIS RUBIALES WHO KISSED THE PLAYER THAT DID NOT WANT TO KISS, WHY IS THE COACH FIRED HERE? >> THEY DIDN'T ACTUALLY GIVE A REASON FOR FIRING HIM. IT KIND OF LEAVES OPEN A LOT OF QUESTIONS. IT LOOKS AS THOUGH WE CAN TAKE THEM TO THEIR WORD. THEY WANT TO >> Reporter: THE TEAM, CHANGE THE CULTURE. WE HAVE TO TO GO BEFORE THEY KISS, BEFORE THE WORLD CUP TO BACK IN SEPTEMBER OF LAST YEAR. THAT IS WHEN THERE WAS A MASSIVE INSURRECTION AMONG DOZENS OF WORLD CUP PLAYERS. THIS WAS AGAINST JORGE VILDA. THEY BASICALLY REFUSE TO PLAY UNLESS CHANGES WERE MADE. THEY SAID AT THE TIME THAT THEY WERE INTENDING TO HAVE THEM FIRED. IT LOOKS AS THOUGH THEY HAVE BEEN LOOKING FOR A WAY TO GET RID OF THIS MAN FOR QUITE A LONG TIME. THEY WANT TO, A LOT OF THE ATTENTION DOWN. LIKE YOU SAID, HE WILL PROBABLY NOT BE THE LAST THAT THEY ARE LOOKING TO CHANGE THE ENTIRE CULTURE. >> YES. A BIT OF AN INTERESTING FEW WEEKS. TALK TO US ABOUT THE NEW COACH. WHAT DO WE KNOW ABOUT HER? >> SHE WAS A FORMER MID PLAYER AND WAS A PART OF HIS COACHING STAFF. IT LOOKS AS THOUGH SHE HAS A LOT OF FAMILIARITY WITH THE LOCK ROOM, THE PLAYERS. SHE WILL BE LEADING THE TEAM TO THE WOMEN'S QUALIFYING MATCHES LATER THIS MONTH AGAINST THE LIKES OF SWEDEN, AND SOME OTHER CHALLENGING TEAMS. SHE WILL BE ABLE TO SHOW WHETHER OR NOT SHE HAS SEEN -- THE STUFF TO RUN THE TEAM. SHE COULD BE LEADING AMONGST ALL THIS CONTROVERSY, A LOT OF CHANGES WITH OTHER TEAMS. WE COULD SEE THIS SENSIBILITY SORT OF SPRAYED AS WE'VE SEEN IN THE PAST. SHE IS WONDERING, WHY DO WE HAVE MEN COACHING USTHE RULES BUT THEY CHEERED WHEN THEY GOT THIS GUY
