PRESIDENT BIDEN AND FORMER PRESIDENT TRUMP FACING OFF IN THE FIRST PRESIDENTIAL DEBATE OF THE SEASON. >> IF HE WENDS THIS ELECTION, OUR COUNTRY DOESN'T HAVE A CHANCE. >> THE TWO CANDIDATES SPARRING OVER KEY ISSUES AND EVEN PERSONAL ATTACKS. >> I DID NOT HAVE SEX WITH A PORN STAR. >>> ALSO, ANOTHER DECISION FOR THE SUPREME COURT WITH SEVERAL CASES STILL ON THE LINE. THIS JUST ONE DAY AFTER TWO CONSEQUENTIAL DECISIONS, ONE CLEARS THE WAY FOR EMERGENCY ABORTIONS IN IDAHO AND ANOTHER KILLS A MULTIMILLION DOLLAR BANKRUPTCY SETTLEMENT FOR A PHARMACEUTICAL GIANT. WE WILL BRING YOU THE LATEST AS THE SUPREME COURT'S TERM STRETCHES INTO JULY. >>> THE INDEPENDENCE DAY GETTING UNDERWAY. MILLIONS GETTING AN EARLY START ON THEIR TRAVEL AS EARLY AS TODAY BUT COULD SEVERE STORMS DISRUPT YOUR FOURTH OF JULY PLANS? WHAT YOU CAN EXPECT AS YOU ARE HEADING OUT THE DOOR. >>> THE CITY OF LIGHTS BUZZING WITH EXCITEMENT LESS THAN ONE MONTH FROM THE SUMMER OLYMPICS. >>> ONE BMX RACER IS GOING FOR GOLD AND REDEMPTION. WE WILL TALK TO FELICIA STANSEL ABOUT HER SECOND QUEST FOR OLYMPIC GLORY AFTER BARELY FALLING SHORT FOUR YEARS AGO. >>> GOOD MORNING AND IT IS GOOD TO HAVE YOU WITH US ON THIS FRIDAY. I AM JOE FRYER AND SAVANNAH SELLERS IS ON ASSIGNMENT. >>> WE BEGIN WITH THE FIRST PRESIDENTIAL DEBATE NOW IN THE BOOKS. PRESIDENT BIDEN AND FORMER PRESIDENT TRUMP WENT HEAD-TO HEAD FOR 90 MINUTES IN ATLANTA WITHOUT THE STUDIO AUDIENCE AND WHAT WAS THOUGHT WOULD'VE AS A PERSONAL DEBATE. IT WAS THE FIRST TIME THEY SHARED A STAGE IN FOUR YEARS AND THE FIRST TIME THIS YEAR THAT THE CANDIDATES CAN BE HEARD AT THE SAME TIME. THE CANDIDATES TRADED BLOWS THROUGHOUT THE NIGHT, PRESIDENT BIDEN STRUGGLING WITH A RASPY VOICE AND HIS CAMPAIGN TELLING NBC NEWS THAT HE HAD A COLD. PROMPTING A WAVE OF PANIC AMONG DEMOCRATS. WHILE MR. TRUMP DOUBLED DOWN ON HIS GRIEVANCES AND FALSEHOODS KEEPING FACT CHECKERS BUSY THROUGHOUT THE NIGHT. HERE ARE SOME OF THE HIGHLIGHTS. >> IT WAS A PIVOTAL MOMENT BETWEEN JOE BIDEN AND FORMER PRESIDENT DONALD TRUMP AND THE REMATCH FOR THE NATION'S HIGHEST OFFICE. EACH WILL MAKE HIS CASE TO THE AMERICAN PEOPLE WITH JUST OVER FOUR MONTHS UNTIL ELECTION DAY. >> PLEASE WELCOME THE 46th PRESIDENT OF THE UNITED STATES, JOE BIDEN. AND PLEASE WELCOME THE 45th PRESIDENT OF THE UNITED STATES, DONALD TRUMP. >> WE HAVE THE GREATEST ECONOMY IN THE HISTORY OF OUR COUNTRY AND WE HAD NEVER DONE SO WELL. EVERYBODY WAS AMAZED BY IT. HE HAS NOT DONE A GOOD JOB. HE HAS DONE A POOR JOB OF INFLATION. IT IS KILLING OUR COUNTRY. IT IS ABSOLUTELY KILLING US. >> WE HAVE THE GREATEST ECONOMY IN THE WORLD. HE CAUSED THE INFLATION. >> WHEN I BECAME PRESIDENT, THE ECONOMY IS FLAT ON ITS BACK. THIS GUY TOLD TRUMP, DO WHATEVER YOU WANT. DO WHATEVER YOU WANT AND THAT IS EXACTLY WHAT TRUMP DID. PUTIN ENCOURAGED HIM, DO WHATEVER YOU WANT AND HE WENT IN FOR SIX WEEKS AND YOU CANNOT SEE A DOCTOR AND HAVE HIM DECIDE ON WHAT YOUR CIRCUMSTANCES ARE WHEN YOU NEED HELP. THIS IS LIKE SAYING WE ARE GOING TO TURN CIVIL RIGHTS BACK TO THE STATES AND EACH STATE HAS A DIFFERENT RULE. THE IDEA THAT SHE WAS MURDERED BY AN IMMIGRANT, IT IS A TOTAL INITIATIVE RELATIVE TO WHAT WE ARE DOING WITH BORDER PATROL. >> I REALLY DON'T KNOW WHAT HE SAID. >> LET ME TELL YOU ABOUT JANUARY 6th. ON JANUARY 6, WE HAD A GREAT BORDER. WE WERE ENERGY DEPENDENT. WE HAD THE LOWEST TAXES EVER, THE LOWEST REGULATIONS EVER. ON JANUARY 6th, WE WERE RESPECTED ALL OVER THE WORLD, ALL OVER THE WORLD WE WERE RESPECTED AND NOW HE COMES IN AND WE ARE LAUGHED AT. WE ARE LIKE A BUNCH OF STUPID PEOPLE. YOU OUGHT TO BE ASHAMED OF YOURSELF, WHAT YOU HAVE DONE, YOU HAVE DESTROYED THE LIVES OF SO MANY PEOPLE. >> YOU ARE IN TROUBLE FOR MOLESTING A WOMAN IN PUBLIC, FOR HAVING SEX WITH A PORN STAR WHILE YOUR WIFE IS PREGNANT. WHAT ARE YOU TALKING ABOUT? YOU ARE AN ALLEYCAT. >> I DID NOT HAVE SEX WITH A PORN STAR. NUMBER ONE. NUMBER TWO, THEY MOVED A HIGH- RANKING DOJ TO START THAT CASE AND THAT CASE IS GOING TO BE APPEALED. >> THE QUESTION WAS, WOULD YOU ACCEPT THE RESULTS OF THE ELECTION, YES OR NO, PLEASE? >> IF IT IS A FAIR AND LEGAL AND GOOD ELECTION, ABSOLUTELY. >> THE ELECTION IS OVER AND YOU ARE A WHINER. WHEN YOU LOST THE FIRST TIME, YOU APPEAL TO COURTS ALL OVER THE COUNTRY. THIS LIE ABOUT ALL OF THIS MISREPRESENTATION. >> TWO REGULAR CLUB CHAMPIONSHIPS AND TO DO THAT, YOU HAVE TO BE -- >> I GOT MY HANDICAP. AND BY THE WAY, I AM HAPPY TO PLAY GOLF IF YOU CARRY YOUR OWN BAG. >> FOR MORE ON THE DEBATE, WE ARE JOINED BY BOB HILLIARD IN ATLANTA COVERING THE TRUMP CAMPAIGN AND WE ARE JOINED BY MIKE. AFTER A VERY LATE NIGHT AND EARLY MORNING, LET'S START WITH YOU ON TRUMP'S PERFORMANCE. HE OFTEN KEPT REFERENCING THE BORDER. WHAT ARE SOME OF THE RESPONSES AND TAKEAWAYS? >> Reporter: THE SENIOR ADVISOR AFTER THE DEBATE LAST NIGHT IN ATLANTA AND THE CONFIDENCE IN THE FORMER PRESIDENT WOULD BE AN UNDERSTATEMENT. AFTER THE BIDEN CAMPAIGN, THE TRUMP CAMPAIGN WAS THERE ESSENTIALLY MAKING THE CASE THAT THEY HAVE BEEN ABLE TO EXPAND THE MAP, ELECTORALLY. THEY THINK THAT THEY CAN PICK UP MINNESOTA AND NEW MEXICO BASED ON MILLIONS OF AMERICANS WATCHING THE DEBATE, LAST NIGHT. AND HE IS SAID TO HAVE PREVIOUSLY SEXUALLY ABUSED A WOMAN EARLIER THIS YEAR AND FINANCIAL FRAUD AND YET THERE IS LITTLE PUSHBACK FROM THE PRESIDENT AND ROE VERSUS WADE BECAME A TOPIC OF CONVERSATION, DONALD TRUMP DROVE THAT CONVERSATION BY SUGGESTING THAT THE STATES HAVE THE ABILITY TO DO WHAT THEY SO DESIRE. I WILL LET YOU HEAR ABOUT THIS. >> AS PRESIDENT, WOULD YOU BLOCK ABORTION MEDICATION? >> FIRST OF ALL, THE SUPREME COURT JUST APPROVED THE ABORTION PILL AND I AGREE WITH THE DECISION TO DO THAT. WE BROUGHT IT BACK TO THE STATES IN THE COUNTRY IS NOW COMING TOGETHER ON THIS ISSUE. IT HAS BEEN A GREAT THING. >> PRESIDENT BIDEN? >> IT IS A TERRIBLE THING WHAT YOU HAVE DONE AND IF I AM ELECTED PRESIDENT, I AM GOING TO RESTORE ROE VERSUS WADE. >> THAT MEANS HE CAN TAKE THE LIFE OF THE BABY IN THE NINTH MONTH. >> Reporter: THE FORMER PRESIDENT FOCUSING ON RECORD NUMBER OF CROSSINGS OVER THE BORDER AND THE STEADY RISE OF PRICING AROUND THE COUNTRY SINCE JOE BIDEN TOOK OFFICE. >> LET'S TALK ABOUT PRESIDENT BIDEN'S NIGHT. HE SEEMED TO STUMBLE OVER THE ANSWERS AND THAT RASPY VOICE. VOTERS HAVE EXPRESSED CONCERN ABOUT HIS AGE AND SHARPNESS SO TELL US MORE ABOUT HIS NIGHT AND WHAT HIS CAMPAIGN IS SAYING IN RESPONSE TO SOME OF THE CONCERNS. >> THE BIDEN CAMPAIGN BELIEVES THE PRESIDENT HAS BUILT A RECORD OF ACCOMPLISHMENT THAT IS THE ENVY OF HIS PREDECESSORS. THEY BOTH RAISED A RECORD AMOUNT OF MONEY AND BUILD A MASSIVE CAMPAIGN TO REACH VOTERS ACROSS THE COUNTRY. THE MISSING PIECE AND ONE REASON WHY THEY WANTED THIS DEBATE EARLIER IS BECAUSE PRESIDENT BIDEN COULD NOW BRING THOSE SKEPTICAL VOTERS WHO HAVE WANTED TO ADDRESS EITHER PARTY ABOUT SOME OF THE MAJOR ISSUES, THE ECONOMY AND HIS AGE. IN THAT VERY FIRST QUESTION PRESIDENT BIDEN FACED INFLATION, THEY HAVE MADE THOSE CONCERNS ABOUT BOTH ISSUES EVEN WORSE. LET'S LOOK AT HOW PRESIDENT BIDEN ANSWERED THAT FIRST QUESTION. >> AND BE ABLE TO HELP CHILD CARE, ELDERLY CARE AND STRENGTHENING OUR HEALTHCARE SYSTEM. EVERY SINGLE SOLITARY PERSON IS ELIGIBLE FOR WHAT I HAVE BEEN ABLE TO DO. DEALING WITH EVERYTHING WE HAVE TO DO. LOOK, WE FINALLY BEAT MEDICARE. >> THAT WAS THE MOMENT DEMOCRATS WERE FEARING THE ENTIRE CAMPAIGN AND WHEN YOU HEARD FROM CAMPAIGN ADVISORS AS THE DEBATE WAS GOING ON, THE FIRST THING WE HEARD WAS THAT HE HAD A COLD. THAT MAY EXPLAIN THE VOICE BUT NOT THE PERFORMANCE. KAMALA HARRIS WAS OUT DOING CABLE NEWS AND WHEN IT WAS OVER, SHE SAID, I WILL NOT SUGARCOAT THIS. IT WAS A SLOW START BUT HE FINISHED STRONG AND PULLING SHOWS THAT THE VOTERS IN THE SWING STATES DID NOT LIKE WHAT THEY HEARD FROM DONALD TRUMP BUT WE ARE HEARING FROM DEMOCRATS WHO DO WONDER, SHOULD JOE BIDEN BE THE CANDIDATE GOING FORWARD? >> NO MATTER WHAT, THIS IS EXPECTED TO BE A TIGHT RACE. WE ARE STILL WAITING ON THE VP ANNOUNCEMENT. WHERE DOES THE CAMPAIGN GO FROM HERE WITH WEEKS UNTIL THE GOP CONVENTION WHICH GOES FIRST THIS YEAR? >> Reporter: ESSENTIALLY, HE WOULD MAKE THAT LAST PRESIDENTIAL ANNOUNCEMENT BEFORE THE DEBATE BUT NOW LOOKING LIKELY IN THE REPUBLICAN NATIONAL ATTENTION, 2.5 WEEKS FROM NOW ON JULY 15th. FOR DONALD TRUMP AND THE LITTLE SCRUTINY THAT HE FACED, THIS WAS A WIN FOR HIM BECAUSE THERE WAS POTENTIALLY A RUNNING MATE WHO COULD MAKE THE CASE AND REPUBLICANS THAT DONALD TRUMP WOULD HAVE SOMEBODY IN OFFICE WHO WOULD BE A MORE MODERATING FORCE BUT COMING OUT OF THAT DEBATE, THIS IS VERY MUCH EVEN MORE SO ON DONALD TRUMP'S TIMELINE, FOUR MONTHS AFTER THE GENERAL ELECTION. >> WE GOT THOSE THREE FRONT RUNNERS IN ATLANTA SO PRESIDENT BIDEN STOPPED AT WAFFLE HOUSE AFTER THE DEBATE AND HE WILL RALEIGH NORTH CAROLINA HERE IN NEW YORK CITY. WHAT CAN WE EXPECT FROM HIM, TODAY? >> Reporter: ONE OF HIS FAVORITE EXPRESSIONS IS TO QUOTE HIS FATHER, WHEN YOU GET KNOCKED DOWN, YOU JUST HAVE TO GET BACK UP. THE PRESIDENT ARRIVED LATE OVERNIGHT AND THIS WILL BE A CAMPAIGN RALLY WITH A LOT OF OPTIMISM AND SIGNALING WHAT THEY WERE TRYING TO DO. NORTH CAROLINA THAT DONALD WON YEARS AGO, YOU WILL SEE DEMOCRATS JOINING HIM, AS WELL. THE QUESTION IS, CAN HE BEGAN TO EXPLAIN TO DEMOCRATS THE FIGHT GOING FORWARD? >> THANK YOU BOTH AND WE APPRECIATE YOU JOINING US, THIS MORNING. LET'S BRING IN HALLIE JACKSON. GOOD TO HAVE YOU WITH US SO LET'S BREAK IT ALL DOWN. WHERE DOES THE BIDEN CAMPAIGN GO FROM HERE? >> Reporter: PHYSICALLY AND LITERALLY, WE ARE IN NORTH CAROLINA RIGHT NOW WHICH IS THE STATE THEY HOPE TO WIN. THE BIDEN CAMPAIGN HAS THIS RALLY PLAN AND THAT IS WHERE HE WILL BE LOOKING TO TURN THE PAGE FROM LAST NIGHT. LET ME TELL YOU MORE ABOUT WHERE THEY MIGHT GO FROM HERE AS IT RELATES TO CONCERN WE HAVE BEEN TALKING ABOUT INSIDE THE DEMOCRATIC PARTY. OBVIOUSLY, NOT ALL LAWMAKERS WANDERING ANONYMOUSLY AT THIS POINT WHETHER PRESIDENT BIDEN SHOULD REMAIN ON THE TICKET. FOR EXAMPLE, THIS MORNING, SOME CALLS FOR PRESIDENT BIDEN TO SERIOUSLY CONSIDER THAT AND THE NEXT QUESTION, HOW REAL IS THAT MOVEMENT? IS THIS A FEW DAYS OF PANIC OR IS THIS SOMETHING MORE SUBSTANTIAL? THE BIDEN CAMPAIGN CAN TELL YOU IT IS CLEARLY THE FORMER. THERE IS INTERNAL DATA SUGGESTING THEY BELIEVE INDEPENDENT VOTERS RESPONDED WELL TO PRESIDENT BIDEN AND WERE TURNED OFF BY FORMER PRESIDENT TRUMP AND THEIR BIGGEST FUNDRAISING DAY, SO FAR, THAT IS WHAT THEY ARE LOOKING AHEAD TO. I WILL TELL YOU, IT IS REAL AND I HAVE HEARD FROM DEMOCRATS THAT THERE IS CONCERN ABOUT THE PRESIDENT'S PERFORMANCE BECAUSE YOU WALKED INTO THIS DEBATE WITH A CLEAR MISSION, ONE OF THE BIGGEST CONCERNS AS IT RELATES TO THE PRESIDENT, THE MISSION WAS IN PART TO ALLEVIATE THOSE CONCERNS. IT IS CLEAR THAT THAT WAS NOT ACCOMPLISHED. CONCERNS WERE NOT ALLEVIATED BASED ON THE PRESIDENTS PERFORMANCE AND EVEN HIS OWN VICE PRESIDENT ARTICULATED THAT IT WAS NOT A STRONG START. ADVISORS WILL SAY HE GOT BETTER AS IT WENT ON. THE QUESTION, HOW LONG DOES THE DEBATE POTENTIALLY LAST, JOE? >> USED THE DEBATE TO AIR HIS GRIEVANCES AND CLIMATE CHANGE. HE ALSO DID MAKE A LOT OF FALSE STATEMENTS ABOUT ABORTION, JANUARY 6th, THE ECONOMY AND MORE. WHAT STOOD OUT? >> Reporter: THE GRIEVANCES, THE MOST MISLEADING ATTACK, WHAT HAPPENED ON JANUARY 6th AND DOWNPLAYING WHAT HAPPENED ON THE UNITED STATES CAPITOL. A LOT OF THAT OVERSHADOWED BY PRESIDENT BIDEN'S STRUGGLES BUT FOR PRESIDENT TRUMP, IF YOU WATCH AS RALLIES, IT WAS SOMEWHAT FAMILIAR FOR THE FORMAL PRESIDENT. HE GOT PERSONAL AT TIMES INVOKING HUNTER BIDEN SO THAT WAS THE DYNAMIC FOR PRESIDENT TRUMP ON STAGE. I WILL TELL YOU, THE FALLOUT, IF YOU WILL. A DIFFERENT REACTION. PROBABLY HALF A DOZEN TRUMP AGE WHO COME OUT ALMOST IMMEDIATELY, WANTING TO TOUT WITH THE DECISIVE WIN FOR FORMER PRESIDENT TRUMP. YOU ARE GOING TO HEAR SOMETHING LIKE THAT BUT I AM TOLD BY ONE ALLY OF THE FORMER PRESIDENT THAT HE WAS JUBILANT IN THE MOMENTS AFTER THE DEBATE. THE BIDEN CAMPAIGN IS PUSHING BACK ON THAT IDEA SUGGESTING THAT THE CRUCIAL INDEPENDENT VOTERS, LATINO VOTERS WERE NOT INTO WHAT FORMER PRESIDENT TRUMP WAS PUTTING DOWN. >> YOU MENTIONED INDEPENDENT VOTERS AND WE HAVE THIS SUBCATEGORY OF THOSE WE CALL THE DOUBLE HATERS. DO WE HAVE AN IDEA YET HOW MUCH OF AN IMPACT THEY HAD OR MIGHT HAVE ON THOSE VOTERS? >> IF I COULD TELL YOU THAT, MY FRIEND, LET ME TELL YOU HOW I THINK IT COULD PLAY OUT BECAUSE THERE WILL BE POLLS AND WE KNOW ANECDOTALLY THAT GADI SCHWARTZ WAS OUT WITH A SERIES OF WHAT WE HAVE DUBBED DOUBLE HATERS ON DEBATE NIGHT, WATCHING THEM, WATCHING THE DEBATE. ESSENTIALLY, THE DOUBLE HATERS ARE GOING TO BE IMPORTANT AND HERE IS WHY DOSE IF THEY DON'T GO TO THE POLLS, THAT COULD BE DAMAGING IN AN ELECTION THAT IS GOING TO BE DECIDED BY A VERY THIN, VERY SMALL NUMBER OF PEOPLE, A RAZOR THIN MARGIN IN JUST A HANDFUL OF CRITICAL STATES. SO OBVIOUSLY, IT IS GOING TO MATTER. HERE IS WHAT I WOULD SAY, A PERSPECTIVE AS WE LOOK AT THIS NIGHT, IT IS JUNE. NORMALLY, WE DON'T EVEN SEE THE DEBATE UNTIL FURTHER ON. THE GENERAL ELECTION DEBATE. WE STILL HAVE TWO CONVENTIONS COMING UP AND WE STILL HAVE WHAT IS PLANNED TO BE ANOTHER DEBATE IN SEPTEMBER, AS WELL. >> DELIGHTS HAVE GONE OUT SO HALLIE JACKSON, TAKE A MOMENT. WE APPRECIATE YOUR REPORTING. THANK YOU SO MUCH. >>> ONE OF THE MAIN TOPICS WAS THE ISSUE OF ABORTION ACCESS. A HOT BUTTON ISSUE THAT WAS THE SUBJECT OF A BIG SUPREME COURT RULING YESTERDAY BY A 6 HAPPENED 3 MAJORITY, THE JUSTICES HAVE CLEARED THE WAY IN IDAHO FOR DOCTORS TO PERFORM AN EMERGENCY ABORTION EVEN THOUGH THE STATE BANS THE PROCEDURE. THEY DID NOT RULE ON THE MERITS OF THE CASE LEAVING AND LOWER COURT RULING IN PLACE. THE COURT ALSO ISSUED ANOTHER MAJOR DECISION YESTERDAY, THIS ONE DISMANTLES T BANKRUPTCY PLAN FOR THE OPIOID MAKER. TO WALK US THROUGH IT ALL, WE ARE JOINED BY RYAN REILLY AND CHRISTIAN GIBBONS WHO IS ALSO AN NBC NEWS CONTRIBUTOR. BY ESSENTIALLY NOT DECIDING IF IDAHO'S STATE ABORTION LAW VIOLATES THE LAW CALLED THE EMERGENCY MEDICAL TREATMENT AND LABOR ACT, EXPERTS SAY THEY SIZED UP THE ISSUE AND WHAT EXACTLY DID THE COURT SAY AND WHAT IS THE IMPACT OF THE DECISION? >> THEY SHOULD HAVE TAKEN THIS UP TO BEGIN WITH AND WHAT THE DEFENSE SAYS IS THAT THIS HAS CAUSED A REAL IMPACT BECAUSE THE COURT CAUSED A REAL IMPACT FOR DOCTORS AND PATIENTS. THE FACT THAT THEY TOOK THIS AND BOTH WERE IN PLACE. THIS WILL PLAY OUT MORE FOR THE COURTS TO DECIDE ON. A LITTLE BIT OF CHAOS TO FIRST BRING IT UP AND WE PROBABLY SHOULD NOT HAVE TAKEN IT, YET. THIS IS TO ULTIMATELY DECIDE. >> THERE ARE OTHER STATES THAT HAVE SIMILAR LAWS BUT THE SPECIFIC RULING DOES NOT AFFECT THE STATES LAWS. WHAT CALENDARS DOES KIND OF CHALLENGE DO YOU THINK WE WILL SEE IN THE FUTURE? >> I THINK IT IS ALL GUARANTEED, REALLY. AS YOU MENTIONED, THERE ARE MULTIPLE STATES SEEING LEGAL ISSUES AND BECAUSE OF THE WAY THE COURT HAS DISMISSED IT WITHOUT RULING ON THE SUBSTANCE, IT COULD BE CHAOS. THERE WILL BE DIFFERENT DECISIONS BY DIFFERENT STATES BECAUSE THERE ARE DIFFERENT INTERPRETATIONS BY DIFFERENT JUDICIARIES AND THE JUSTICES POINTED OUT THE SAME LEGAL QUESTIONS WILL COME BACK AND I THINK PROBABLY VERY SOON. BUT, ULTIMATELY, THEY WILL BE DEALING WITH THE FEDERAL ISSUE THAT BRIAN KIND OF POINTED OUT. >> BRIAN, LET'S TALK ABOUT THE OTHER RULING, BLOCKING THE OPIOID DEAL WHICH MEANS STATES COULD LOSE OUT ON BILLIONS OF DOLLARS TO COMBAT THE OPIOID EPIDEMIC AND IT ALSO MEANS THE FAMILY THAT USED TO OWN PURDUE IS NOT PROTECTED FROM FUTURE LAWSUITS. WHAT DID THE COURT FIND IN THIS RULING AND WHAT OTHER LEGAL CHALLENGES COULD THE FAMILY FAITH? >> IT IS REALLY BACK TO THE DRAWING BOARD AND THEY HAVE TO BASICALLY COME UP WITH A SOLUTION BECAUSE THE SOLUTION ALSO PROTECTED THE FAMILY FROM FURTHER LOSSES. IT WAS SORT OF ONE OF THOSE SCENARIOS WHERE YOU GET A NEGOTIATION WHERE NOT EVERYONE IS HAPPIER. THEY DID NOT WANT TO GET THE DEAL AND THAT IS WHERE THEY ARE ABLE TO LAND ON SO THEY ALLOWED THEM TO GO FORWARD AND THEY HAVE TO FIGURE OUT WHAT THEY ARE GOING TO DO TO GET THE MONEY TO THE VICTIMS OF THE FAMILY. >> KRISTEN, UNDERSTANDABLY, ATTORNEYS FOR THE VICTIMS AND THE PURDUE PHARMA SETTLEMENT UNDERSTAND THEY COULD LOSE OUT ON BILLIONS OF DOLLARS. IS IT POSSIBLE WE WILL GET A NEW DEAL? >> Reporter: YES, TO ACTUALLY INCREASE THE FUNDING AND INCREASE ACCOUNTABILITY SO THAT THE AMILY IS NOT SHIELDED FROM LIABILITY IN THE FUTURE AND I THINK THERE COULD BE THE POTENTIAL FOR INCREASED FINANCIAL COMPENSATION EVEN THOUGH $6 BILLION SOUNDS LIKE A LOT, GIVEN THE EFFECT AND IMPACT OF THE OPIOID EPIDEMIC AND HOW IT HAS AFFECTED NOT JUST INDIVIDUAL VICTIMS BUT STATES, GOVERNMENTAL ENTITIES. I THINK THE INCREASED PRESSURE WILL -- STAFF WE EXPECT MORE DECISIONS TODAY AND INTO EARLY NEXT WEEK. WHAT ARE THE BIG ONES WE ARE WAITING FOR? >> PRESIDENTIAL IMMUNITY. ALSO THE JANUARY 6th CASE BUT THE ULTIMATE IS THE FEW DOZENS GIVEN HOW THE CASE HAS PLAYED OUT SO IT WON'T HAVE THIS SPRAWLING IMPACT ON THE JANUARY 6th CASE BUT IT WILL IMPACT AND MORE IMPORTANTLY -- >> THANK YOU BOTH FOR BREAKING DOWN THESE DECISIONS. >>> MUCH MORE TO COME. FINANCIAL FEARS FUELING A NEW TREND WHEN IT COMES TO GETTING READY FOR RETIREMENT. WE WILL BREAK DOWN THE STRATEGY FOR THE SO-CALLED SUPER SAVERS. >>> OUT OF OFFICE AND INTO TRAFFIC. CONDITIONS ON THE ROAD AND THE SKY STRATHMORE HEAVY RAIN IS ON THE WAY. >>> WELCOME BACK. YOU MAY BE TRYING TO FINALIZE YOUR FOURTH OF JULY FANS BUT THE TSA KNOWS ONE THING FOR SURE, NEXT WEEK WILL BE BUSY. THEY ARE BRACING FOR YET ANOTHER WEEK OF RECORD TRAVEL AND THE TSA IS FORECASTING 32 MILLION PEOPLE WILL TAKE TO THE SKIES, NEXT WEEK. THE TSA ALREADY BROKE THE RECORD FOR MOST INDIVIDUALS SCREENED ON A SINGLE DAY EARLIER THIS WEEK. MAGGIE VESPA JOINS US FROM O'HARE INTERNATIONAL AIRPORT WITH MORE. TODAY, ALONE, MORE THAN 3 MILLION PEOPLE WILL LIKELY BE SCREENED SO IF YOU ARE FLYING, WHAT DO YOU NEED TO KNOW AND WHAT IS THE TSA SAYING ABOUT IT? >> Reporter: WHAT YOU NEED TO KNOW IS THAT THE FOURTH OF JULY TRAVEL RUSH HAS ALREADY BEGUN. THE TSA IS SAYING TODAY, TOMORROW AND WEDNESDAY ARE EXPECTED TO BE THE PEAK TRAVEL DAYS. GETTING SOMEWHERE TWO HOURS AHEAD OF TIME, ALLOWING FOR THE SECURITY LINES TO BE BACKED UP AND THEY SAY THAT IS EVEN MORE IMPORTANT THIS EARLY ON. WE ARE TALKING ABOUT TODAY, TOMORROW AND EARLY WEDNESDAY. TAKE THAT ADVICE AND INJECTED WITH STEROIDS BECAUSE THE HOLIDAY RUSH IS UNDERWAY. AND WE HAVE ALMOST A WEEK TO GO. HERE IS WHAT WE DO KNOW, MILLIONS ACROSS THE COUNTRY WITH DAMAGING STORMS. WE HAVE BEEN TALKING ABOUT IT FOR DAYS. A BUSY AIRPORT AND STORMY WEATHER, THAT IS A BAD COMBINATION. >> Reporter: IT COULD IMPACT TRAVEL IN WAYS THAT WE HAVE SEEN BEFORE, KIND OF COLLIDING WITH FLIGHT PLANS BUT HERE IS SOMETHING INTERESTING ABOUT THIS SUMMER IN PARTICULAR, EXPERTS ARE WARNING THAT PEOPLE SHOULD TAKE INTO ACCOUNT THE EXTREME HEAT. THE AIRLINES HAVE AT TIMES HEAT RELATED DELAYS BECAUSE WHEN IT GETS THIS HOT, SOMETIMES THEY HAVE WEIGHT RESTRICTIONS ON PLAINS AND THEY CAN DO THAT BY BUMPING PASSENGERS OR DELAYING. THE BEST ADVICE IS TO TRY TO BOOK YOUR FLIGHT IN THE MORNING OR THE EVENING TO COMBAT THIS WORLD OF SEVERE WEATHER WE ARE LIVING IN. >>> LET'S TAKE A CLOSER LOOK AT THE WEATHER. HEAVY RAIN IS MOVING THROUGH THE ALREADY SOAKED MIDWEST. ANGIE LASSMAN HAS YOUR FORECAST. >> THIS IS NOT THE NEWS THAT FOLKS WANT TO HEAR. MORE RAIN IN THE FORECAST. THIS IS ALREADY REALLY SATURATED GROUNDS THAT HAVE BEEN PROBLEMATIC. HERE IS THE PICTURE OF WHAT THE STORMS LOOK LIKE. MINNEAPOLIS, WATERLOO AND EVEN CHICAGO WILL START TO SEE THIS. WE WILL SEE THIS MOISTURE SHIFT TO THE EAST AS THE DAY GOES ON BUT WE HAVE ANOTHER CHANCE OF SEVERE WEATHER INTO THE AFTERNOON HOURS AND EVENING HOURS. 9 MILLION PEOPLE WILL BE WITH US WITH WIND GUSTS IMPACTING US AND THAT IS OUR BIGGEST CONCERN. LIKE I MENTIONED, THE FLOODING IS SOMETHING WE ARE KEEPING A CLOSE EYE ON. WE DO HAVE SOME SPOTS UNDER MODERATE FLOODING. WHEN WE LOOK AT THE AREAS, MOST OF THE RAIN WE ARE EXPECTING TONIGHT WILL STAY TO THE SOUTH OF THOSE AREAS DEALING WITH THE WORST OF THAT WRITING. THE KANSAS CITY AREA AND POINTS EAST AND NORTH COULD POTENTIALLY GET UP TO TWO INCHES OF RAIN BY THE TIME WE GET TO THE EVENING HOURS. BY TOMORROW, 90 MILLION PEOPLE AT RISK FOR YOUR SATURDAY PLANS, PITTSBURGH, COLUMBUS, CLEVELAND AND BUFFALO LOOKING AT THE CHANCES OF SHOWERS. NOT QUITE AS STRONG AS TODAY. A TORNADO OR TWO, YOU WILL NOT BE ABLE TO ROLL THOSE OUT. OTHERWISE, THE WEST IS STAYING HOT AND THE SOUTH IS STAYING HOT. THE NORTHERN TIER OF THE COUNTRY, BELOW AVERAGE HIGHS AND A MILD POSITION IN THE 60s AND 70s FOR THE UPPER MIDWEST. ONCE THEY DRY OUT, THEY WILL HAVE SOME NICE CONDITIONS AND THE HIGHS STAY. IT IS THE SEVERE STORMS HUGGING THE EAST COAST THAT WE WILL HAVE TO WATCH FOR, JOE. THE WEST COAST, PLENTY OF SUNSHINE. >> SOME PLACES ARE GOING TO HAVE A NICE WEEKEND. >>> ISRAELI FORCES ARE BOMBING A NEIGHBORHOOD IN GAZA CITY. THIS COMES ONE DAY AFTER IDF GROUND FORCES STORMED THE SAME AREA THEY HAD ATTACKED EARLIER IN THE WAR WITH HAMAS. WE CAPTURE THE MOMENT THE ISRAELI MILITARY BEGAN THE OPERATION AND IT SHOWS PALESTINIANS FLING THE BOMBING AND THE SCENE IS DESCRIBED AS HARROWING ADDING DEATH IN EVERY CORNER. MATT BRADLEY JOINS US NOW FROM TEL AVIV. WHAT ARE WE HEARING FROM OUR TEAM IN GAZA ABOUT THIS LATEST ISRAELI ATTACK IN GAZA AND ONE OF THE IS REALLY SAYING ABOUT IT? >> Reporter: THE ISRAELIS RELEASED A STATEMENT TODAY TALKING ABOUT THE ATTACK BASED ON INTELLIGENCE SAYING THERE WERE TERRORISTS HIDING OUT AMONG THE CIVILIAN POPULATION AND THE ISRAELIS SAY THEY ARE USING THE CIVILIAN POPULATION AS SHIELDS. HAMAS HAS SAID THESE ATTACKS HAVE BEEN ONGOING FOR SEVERAL DAYS IN THE NEIGHBORHOOD AND THAT THEY HAVE SPENT -- SEEN HUNDREDS OF PEOPLE RUNNING FOR SHELTER AND SAFETY AND THE HEALTH AUTHORITIES HAVE SET AT LEAST SEVEN PEOPLE WERE KILLED BUT SOME OF THE MISSING ARE STILL STUCK UNDER RUBBLE SO THOSE NUMBERS ARE LIKELY TO GO UP BUT ONE OF THE IMPORTANT THINGS TO MENTION IS THAT THIS IS KIND OF A GLAM OF WHAT THE ISRAELIS SAY WILL BE THE FUTURE OF OPERATIONS. WE HEARD FROM BENJAMIN NETANYAHU AND MILITARY LEADERS SAYING THEY WERE ENTERING THE NEXT PHASE OF THE WAR, ONE OF THE PINPOINT OPERATIONS LIKE YOU SEE HERE AND THERE IS NOTHING PARTICULARLY SURGICAL ABOUT THIS. IT DOES LOOK LIKE A MASSIVE ATTACK BUT NOT THE SAME STYLE WE HAVE SEEN OVER THE LAST COUPLE OF MONTHS. >> ALSO PRESENT FOR THE FIRST MEDICAL EVACUATION OF 21 CHILDREN IN GAZA, WHAT CAN YOU TELL US ABOUT THAT? >> AS YOU MENTIONED, THIS IS THE FIRST MEDICAL EVACUATION SINCE MAY. THESE CHILDREN ARE AFFLICTED WITH CANCER THAT WOULD BE TREATABLE UNDER NORMAL CIRCUMSTANCES AND THE REASON THEY NEED TO LEAVE THE GAZA STRIP IS BECAUSE THEY DON'T HAVE ACCESS TO MEDICAL CARE OR FOOD OR MEDICINE AND THAT IS A MAJOR ISSUE BECAUSE A LOT OF THESE HOSPITALS HAVE BEEN ALMOST COMPLETELY DESTROYED IN REPEATED ISRAELI ATTACKS AND THERE HAS NOT BEEN AID GETTING INTO THE STRIP. THE MODERN MEDICAL FACILITIES NOT AFFECTED BY WAR, THIS WOULD BE TREATABLE. THIS IS A RESULT OF THE CONTINUED ATTACK. THERE WERE NEARLY 70 PEOPLE WHO LEFT THE GAZA STRIP, 20 CHILDREN AND THEIR ADULT COMPANIONS AND MOST OF THEM DO NOT KNOW WHERE THEY ARE HEADING. THE LEFT FROM THE BORDER CROSSING AND ARE HEADED TO EGYPT . THEY DON'T KNOW WHERE THEIR FINAL DESTINATION IS. IT WAS A DIPLOMATIC VICTORY GETTING THEM OUT OF THERE. >>> WE HAVE MORE INTERNATIONAL NEWS. IN IRAN, THE POLLS ARE OPEN FOR A SNAP ELECTION TO CHOOSE A NEW PRESIDENT. CLAUDIO LAVANGA HAS THAT AND OTHER WORLD HEADLINES. GOOD MORNING. >> Reporter: GOOD MORNING. IRANIANS ARE HEADING TO THE POLLS TO CHOOSE A NEW PRESIDENT OVER THE FORMER PRESIDENT WHO DIED IN A HELICOPTER CRASH LAST MONTH. USUALLY, AN IRANIAN PRESIDENTIAL ELECTION BUT THIS TIME, THERE SEEMS TO BE A WILDCARD. A FORMER HEAD OF SURGEON AFTER HE CALLS IMMORAL THE ACTIONS BY POLICE, THE DRESS CODE OF WOMEN AND PROMISED TALKS. >>> THE PRESIDENT, LUIS ARCE, DENIES ACCUSATIONS THAT HE WAS BEHIND A FAILED COUP . SAYING THE PRESIDENT HAS ORDERED HIM TO CARRY OUT -- CALLING THE ALLEGATIONS ALLY AND SING THE GENERAL WILL NOW FACE JUSTICE. >>> LET'S GO TO THE WORLD IN JAPAN WHERE SPORTS AUTHORITIES SAY THE TOKYO MARATHON WILL ALLOW ATHLETES TO FILE AS NON- BINARY. GENDER-NEUTRAL RESTROOMS WILL BE ALONG THE COURSE. THE FOUNDATION SAYING THEY WANT TO BECOME THE MOST INCLUDED IN THE WORLD. >>> COMING UP, THE FORMER POLICE CHIEF IN UVALDE ARRESTED AND CHARGED AFTER THE MASS SHOOTING THAT KILLED 21 PEOPLE, 19 OF THEM ARE STUDENTS. >>> A LANDMARK MOMENT FOR THE BIRTHPLACE OF THE MODERNRIGHTS MOVEMENT . WE WILL TAKE YOU INSIDE OF THE STONEWALL NATIONAL MONUMENT >>> WE ARE BACK WITH FINANCIAL NEWS. IT LOOKS LIKE NIKE IS LANDING ON THE WRONG FOOT THIS QUARTER. WE HAVE THAT AND OTHER MONEY NEWS. BERTHA COOMBS. >> SHARES WITH NIKE ARE NOT DOING IT FOR INVESTORS THIS MORNING AFTER THE COMPANY REPORTED LOWER THAN EXPECTED SALES THIS LAST QUARTER AND NIKE IS GRAPPLING WITH DEMANDS FOR CONSUMERS SAYING THIS IS GOING TO BE A TRANSITION YEAR CUTTING PRODUCTION OF THE LOWEST SELLING CLASSIC SNEAKERS AND IS WAITING FOR POTENTIAL GAINS FROM NEWER SHOES AND EXCITEMENT FROM ATHLETES LIKE CAITLIN CLARK . >>> THE KING OF POP OWES MORE THAN HALF $1 BILLION TO CREDITORS. THE CREDITORS FILING A PETITIO . THEY SAY MICHAEL JACKSON'S MAJOR ASSETS WERE SUBJECT TO $500 MILLION OF DEBT AND COMPLAINTS FROM CREDITORS. THEY HAVE MANAGED TO TURN THE ESTATES FINANCES AROUND LARGELY BY SELLING STAKES AND PUBLISHING RIGHTS OF WHAT JACKSON OWNED, MOTOWN CLASSICS AND THE SONG CATALOGS OF CAROLYN KING. >>> LOOKING FOR FOLKS TO DITCH THEIR CARS, THE COMPANY HAS A NEW PROMOTION WHERE IT WILL TAKE 175 PEOPLE IN SELECT CITIES OF THE UNITED STATES AND CANADA. CHICAGO, WASHINGTON DC, MIAMI, SAN FRANCISCO, TORONTO AND VANCOUVER. THOSE SELECTED WILL BE GIVEN CREDITS FOR BIKE SHARE AND PUBLIC TRANSPORT TO STOP DRIVING. YOU CAN SIGN UP FOR THE TRIAL WHICH STARTS ON JULY 22nd. YOU HAVE TO BE 18 YEARS OR OLDER, HAVE A DRIVERS LICENSE AND THE CAR YOU USE MORE THAN 300 WEEKS AND BE COMFORTABLE SHARING YOUR EXPERIENCE. NEW YORK CITY IS NOT ON THAT LIST BECAUSE A LOT OF US DO NOT DRIVE MORE THAN THREE TIMES A WEEK. >>> LET'S LOOK AHEAD TO THE FUTURE OF YOUR MONEY WITH THE POTENTIAL CONCERNS FOR THOSE WITH 401(K)S AND OTHER TYPES OF REQUIREMENT PLANS. RETIREMENT BALANCES ARE FALLING SHORT OF WHAT PEOPLE WILL NEED TO LIVE ON ONCE THEY RETIRE. THE 2023 STUDY FINDS 53% OF WORKERS ARE SAVING 10% OR LESS TOWARD RETIREMENT. CALEB SILVER. FIRST OF ALL, WHY IS THIS HAPPENING? WHY AREN'T PEOPLE SAVING? >> BECAUSE THEY NEED THAT MONEY FOR EXPENSES. WHEN YOU'RE LOOKING AT YOUR 401(K) OPTIONS, THIS IS ACTUALLY PAYING YOURSELF IN THE FUTURE BUT FOR A LOT OF FOLKS THAT DON'T THINK THEY CAN MUSTER IT, ONLY 56% OF PEOPLE ARE SAVING 10%. 44% ARE SAVING 10% OR MORE AND SUPER SAVERS ARE SAVING 10% TO 15%. >> I AM SURPRISED THERE ARE THAT MANY PEOPLE WHO ARE SUPER SAVERS. >> THE FIRST 10 OR 15 YEARS OF YOUR CAREER, IT IS HARD TO IMAGINE PAYING 10% OF THAT PAYCHECK. >> 53% OF CLIENTS WITH INCOMES OVER $150,000 CONTRIBUTE THE MAXIMUM AMOUNT TO THEIR RETIREMENT PLAN. EXPLAIN HOW AGE CAN PLAY A DIFFERENT. >> IT IS ON YOU. IF YOU DON'T MAKE A LOT OF MONEY, THE 401(K) IS NOT HELPING YOU BECAUSE YOU CANNOT PUT MUCH AWAY. HIGHER INCOME PEOPLE BENEFIT MORE BECAUSE THEY CAN PUT AWAY MORE AND THEY CAN TAKE ADVANTAGE OF THE COMPANY MATCH, THEY ARE DOING EVEN BETTER. WHEN YOU LOOK AT THE RETIREMENT, IT TAKES $1.4 MILLION IF YOU'RE GOING TO RETIRE AT 65 AND LIVED TO ABOUT 85, YOU ARE GOING TO NEED A LOT MORE. >> IT IS NOT TOO LATE ESPECIALLY IF YOU ARE YOUNG SO WHAT CAN WE DO TO MAXIMIZE? >> YOU HAVE TO BE ABLE TO PAY YOURSELF INTO THE FUTURE SO YOU HAVE TO START EARLY AND BE CONSISTENT. BE SURE TO ROLL THAT 401(K) OVER IF YOU CHANGE JOBS. I KNOW IT IS HARD AT THE BEGINNING BUT AS YOU MAKE MORE MONEY, PEAK DOES KEEP ADDING TO THAT AND OPEN A ROTH IRA, IF YOU NEED TO. GET MULTIPLE ACCOUNTS GOING SO THAT YOU CAN TAKE ADVANTAGE. THAT IS CALLED COMPOUNDING AND YOU NEED TO START EARLY. THE EARLIER YOU START, THE BETTER OFF YOU ARE. >> IT IS AMAZING WHEN YOU ARE YOUNGER. WHAT AM I DOING AND I DON'T GET IT AND SUDDENLY WHEN YOU ARE INTO YOUR 40s, THIS REALLY IS ADDING UP. >> COMPOUNDING FOR THE LONG-TERM IS A MARATHON. >>> ONE MONTH OUT FROM THE SUMMER OLYMPICS AND FOR ONE BMX RIDER, WE WILL TALK TO FELICIA AS SHEE. THIS IS MY FAVORITE TIP OF THE DAY. >>> TOP MAGNIFIER. WE CAN ZOOM IN. >>> THE WAY TO GET IT OUT IS TO USE THE SHELL THAT IS LEFT OVER. IT WORKS EVERY SINGLE TIME. >>> THIS IS MY FAVORITE TIP OF THE DAY. >>> YOU DON'T WANT TO DO WHAT SOMEONE ELSE IS DOING. >>> YOU JUST SAVED ME 40 BUCKS. >>> THAT IS A GOOD IDEA. >>> WE ARE LESS THAN ONE MONTH OUT FROM THE OLYMPICS. SOME OF THE ATHLETES HAVE ALREADY PUNCHED THEIR TICKET TO FRANCE. ONE IS FELICIA STANSEL AND SAYS HER OLYMPIC DREAM IS ONE THAT STARTED AT A VERY YOUNG AGE AND A TRAGIC TIME FOR HER AND HER FAMILY. IN LOVE AND SUPPORT FOR HER DAD AND AT THE PINNACLE OF HER CAREER, SHE HOPES TO BRING HOME THE GOLD AND WE ARE SO EXCITED TO HAVE FELICIA JOIN US, THIS MORNING. CONGRATULATIONS ON MAKING IT TO THE OLYMPICS FOR THE SECOND TIME. HOW ARE YOU FEELING? >> THANK YOU. I AM FEELING REALLY GOOD. I AM CURRENTLY IN PARIS ON THE TRACK WE WILL BE RACING NEXT MONTH SO I AM FEELING REALLY GOOD AND THE FIRST STEP IS DONE BUT THE BIG STEP OF PREPARING FOR THE ACTUAL RACE IS GOING ON. WORKING HARD AT THE MOMENT AND VERY EXCITED. >> IF I HAVE TO GO TO PARIS EARLY, I WILL GO TO PARIS EARLY, RIGHT? YOU PERSONALLY SHARED YOUR JOURNEY AND YOU LOST YOUR MOTHER WHEN YOU WERE THREE YEARS OLD AND IT WAS THE YEAR AFTER THAT THAT YOU REALIZED YOUR DREAM OF BECOMING AN OLYMPIC RACER. HOW DID THAT TIME OF YOUR LIFE SHAPE THE PERSON IN THE ATHLETE THAT YOU ARE NOW? >> IT WAS DEFINITELY SOMETHING THAT IS NOT TYPICALLY NORMAL. MY MOM UNFORTUNATELY PASSED AWAY ON MY BIRTHDAY BUT A YEAR LATER, MY DAD SHOWED SUPPORT THROUGH A DIFFICULT TIME. I THINK BMX I THINK IT WAS VERY SPECIAL. MY DAD AND I TRAVELED ALL ACROSS THE COUNTRY STARTING SO IT IS JUST SOMETHING VERY SPECIAL THAT WE SHARED TOGETHE , A PASSION FOR BMX AND I DON'T KNOW IF I WOULD HAVE GONE THIS FAR IF ANOTHER SITUATION WOULD'VE HAPPENED WITH MY MOM BUT I THINK WE TOOK SOMETHING THAT WAS UNFORTUNATE AND CREATED AN AMAZING CAREER TOGETHER AND HE TAUGHT ME A LOT ABOUT THE SPORT. HE IS ONE OF THE FIRST IN HISTORY AND THAT IS HOW HE KNEW SO MUCH ABOUT IT AND HAS TAUGHT ME SO MUCH. AND I AM GRATEFUL FOR EVERYTHING HE HAS TAUGHT ME ABOUT SPORTS. >> WE HAVE A MINUTE LEFT BUT I WANT TO TALK ABOUT THE TOKYO GAMES. LESS THAN HALF A SECOND BETWEEN YOU AND THE OLYMPIC MEDAL. WHAT DID YOU LEARN FROM THAT EXPERIENCE AND HOW ARE YOU USING THAT FOR THIS YEAR'S GAME? >> I THINK THE BIGGEST THING I LEARNED IS MY MIND SET BACK I HAD DURING THAT TIME. I DEFINITELY WORKED HARD. BUT I THINK THE MINDSET I HAD WAS TO WORK HARD AND HOPE FOR THE BEST AND I DID NOT REALIZE THAT WAS MY MINDSET AT THE TIME. I THINK NOW, I AM TRYING TO WORK HARD TO MAKE IT HAPPEN. DIFFERENCE BETWEEN THIS OLYMPICS AND LAST OLYMPICS IS I'M PROBABLY MORE CONFIDENT AND WANTING TO MAKE IT HAPPEN. >> IT ALL MAKES SENSE AND WE WILL BE PUSHING FOR YOU AND CHEERING YOU ON AS WE GET CLOSER TO THE OLYMPIC GAMES.

HIS CAMPAIGN IS POINTING TO INTERNAL DATA, INDEPENDENT VOTERS RESPONDED WELL TO PRESIDENT BIDEN AND RETURNED UP BY TRUMP. POINTING TO WHAT THEY DESCRIBE AS A BIGGEST FUNDRAISING DAY THE CAMPAIGN SO FAR. >>> FOR MORE ON THE DEBATE, SPRING AND SENIOR NATIONAL POLITICS REPORTER JONATHAN ALLEN. GOOD MORNING AT THINK YOU FOR JOINING US. SOME NEW REPORTING OVERNIGHT SOME DEMOCRATS HAVE STARTED TO CALL THEM PRESIDENT BIDEN TO STEP ASIDE SO THE PARTY CAN NOMINATE ANOTHER CANDIDATE FOLLOWING HIS PERFORMANCE. YOU SEE THE HEADLINE SAYING HE SHOULD THROW IN THE TOWEL. WHAT ARE YOU HEARING? >> THERE IS A MIXED SET OF VIEWS AMONG DEMOCRATS. THE VAST MAJORITY THINK THERE WAS A DEBACLE FOR THE PARTY LAST NIGHT. SOME DEMOCRATS I SPOKE TO IN SOME OF OUR COLLEAGUES SPOKE TO LAST NIGHT IN THE AFTERMATH OF THE DEBATES IT IS TIME FOR BIDEN TO STEP ASIDE AND MAKE ROOM FOR ANOTHER DEMOCRATIC CANDIDATE. I THINK SOME OF THEM SAW THEIR WORST NIGHTMARE VERSION OF JOE BIDEN LAST NIGHT. ALL THE PEOPLE I SPOKE TO WERE RELUCTANT TO STAY IT. THEY SAID THEY HAD MISGIVINGS AND LIKE JOE BIDEN AND APPRECIATE THE WORK HE HAS DONE AS PRESIDENT, BUT IN THE END THEY DON'T BELIEVE HE WILL BE A STRONG CANDIDATE AGAINST TRUMP IN THE FALL. >> THERE IS NO SUGGESTED THAT PRESIDENT BIDEN WON'T BE RUNNING BUT SINCE THE ISSUE HAS COME UP, WE SHOULD ASK IF DEMOCRATS DID DECIDE TO GO DOWN THE WHOLE OF FINDING A REPLACEMENT, IF MR. BIDEN DID STEP ASIDE, HOW WOULD THAT EVEN WORK? >> JOE, YOUR GUESS IS AS GOOD AS MINE. JUST KIDDING. IT WOULD BE AN UGLY PROCESS. THERE WOULD BE A BRUTAL INTRAPARTY FIGHT AMONG DEMOCRATS . HE COULD STEP ASIDE BUT THE OTHER WAY HE WOULD BE DENIED THE NOMINATION IS IF THERE WAS A REVOLT AMONG THE DEMOCRATIC DELEGATES, NATIONAL CONVENTION IN AUGUST, WHICH THE VAST MAJORITY OF THEM WERE ELECTED TO BECOME DELEGATES TO THE CONVENTION BY PLEDGING TO SUPPORT JOE BIDEN, SO IT'S HARD TO SEE THAT HAPPENING. IT'S AN OPTION TO WHETHER HE WANTS TO CONTINUE OR STEP ASIDE. IF HE DID STEP ASIDE, THE DEMOCRATS WOULD HAVE TO MAKE A DECISION EVER THEY WANTED NEXT AND THAT COULD BE EVEN MORE DIFFICULT THAN WHAT THEY'RE FACING NOW. A VICE PRESIDENT IN KAMALA HARRIS IS THE FIRST BLACK VICE PRESIDENT, FIRST WOMAN VICE PRESIDENT. IF THERE WAS AN ATTEMPT TO DENY HER SUCCEEDING JOE BIDEN, YOU COULD SEE A REAL FIGHT WITHIN THE DEMOCRATIC PARTY THAT WOULD SPLIT AND AGGRAVATE THE DIVISIONS BETWEEN THE FACTIONS OF THE PARTY. >> LET'S TURN TO TRUMP'S PERFORMANCE. WHEN YOU GET DOWN TO THE ISSUES AND SUBSTANCE, THERE WAS A LINE OF FALSE STATEMENTS WEATHER JANUARY 6 OR ABORTION OR THE ECONOMY, WHERE THE TAKEAWAYS FROM HIS DEBATE LAST NIGHT? >> THERE'S ALMOST NO ANSWER THAT DONALD TRUMP GIVES YOU LOOK AT AND SAY IT'S OBJECTIVELY TRUTHFUL AS SOMEBODY WHO POSTS. HE COVERS UP HIS WEAKNESSES OFTEN WITH DECEPTION OR DISHONESTY. AT THE SAME TIME, THE TWO PERFORMANCES WERE SO STARKLY DIFFERENT IN TERMS OF ENERGY AND THE STAMINA OF THESE TWO CANDIDATES IN TERMS OF THE ACUITY OF THESE TWO. THE SUBSTANCE APPEARED TO BE IMMATERIAL. I DID NOT TALK TO A SINGLE DEMOCRAT LAST NIGHT WHO TALKED ABOUT ANYTHING RELATED TO THE SUBSTANCE OF THE DEBATE, THE CONTRAST ON ISSUES, EVERYBODY WAS TALKING ABOUT EITHER THEIR DESIRE TO SEE JOE BIDEN MOVE ASIDE OR, TO YOUR POINT, THEY SAW TRUMP SPOUTING A BUNCH OF LIES. NOBODY I SPOKE TO ON THE DEMOCRATIC SIDE SAID ANYTHING ABOUT ANY OF THE ISSUES. >> I KNOW IT WAS A BUSY NIGHT, THANK YOU FOR JOINING US AND THANK YOU FOR YOUR REPORTING. >>> THIS IS ABOUT REACTION SO LET'S TALK ABOUT THAT. ESPECIALLY FROM BLACK VOTERS IN PENNSYLVANIA. PRESIDENT BIDEN FLIPPED THAT STATE IN THE LAST ELECTION WITH THE BLACK BONES SEEN AS VITAL. THE QUESTION IS SUPPORT FROM THE VOTING BLOCK WANING. SHAQUILLE BREWSTER JOINS US FROM PHILADELPHIA WHERE HE WATCH THE DEBATE WITH A GROUP OF BLACK VOTERS. SET THE SCENE. TELL US ABOUT THE PEOPLE YOU WATCH THE DEBATE WITH AND WHAT THE NUMBERS ARE TELLING US ABOUT PRESIDENT BIDEN'S SUPPORT AMONG BLACK VOTERS RIGHT NOW? >> Reporter: GOOD MORNING. LET'S BE CLEAR. POLLING TO SHOW THAT PRESIDENT BIDEN IS STILL WINNING BLACK VOTERS AT AN OVERWHELMING RATE. THE DIFFERENCE IS IT'S NOT THE LEVEL WAS I IN 2020 THE HELPED USHER INTO THE WHITE HOUSE. IT'S NOT THE 92% SHARE THAT HE WON. WE CAME HERE TO PHILLY TO TALK TO A GROUP OF BLACK VOTERS WHO WATCHED THE DEBATE. THIS IS A CITY WHERE IN THE PAST MONTH, VISITS FROM DONALD TRUMP AND JOE BIDEN MAKING DIRECT APPEALS TO BLACK VOTERS. THESE VOTERS TOLD US HEADING INTO THE DEBATE THEY WERE WORRIED ABOUT THE ECONOMY. DISAPPOINTED IN PRESIDENT BIDEN ABOUT THE WAR IN GAZA AND WE WANT AN OPPORTUNITY TO WATCH THE LIVE REACTIONS AS THEY WERE WATCHING THE TWO CANDIDATES ON STAGE. >> WHAT WAS THEIR REACTION? DID IT CHANGE ANYONE'S MIND? >> Reporter: ONE IMPORTANT THING TO NOTE, THESE ARE FOLKS WHO VOTED FOR BIDEN IN 2020. ONLY ONE BEFORE THE DEBATE SAID THEY WERE STILL WITH HIM. US INTO SOME REACTIONS AFTER THE DEBATE. >> IT IS BAD FOR THE COUNTRY. WE ARE IN A DIFFICULT SPOT AS A NATION. VERY FRANKLY. >> Reporter: YOU DON'T LIKE THE TWO OPTIONS YOU SAW TONIGHT? >> I DON'T IMAGINE IF ANYBODY IS HONEST THAT ANYBODY IS EXCITED OR ENTHUSIASTIC ABOUT EITHER CANDIDATE. >> Reporter: IF THE ELECTION WERE TOMORROW, WHO WOULD YOU VOTE FOR? >> ME? I WOULD VOTE FOR BIDEN. FOR SURE. >> Reporter: WITH THAT UP IN YOUR ANSWER BEFORE THE DEBATE? >> I WAS NOT SURE. >> Reporter: THERE WAS FOR AT LEAST THAT ONE VOTER A SHIFT TOWARD BIDEN. THE QUESTION IS HOW ARE OTHER PEOPLE WITNESSING AND REACTING AND DIGESTING THE DEBATE LAST NIGHT. >> WE KNOW THE AGE OF THE CANDIDATES IS A HUGE TALKING POINT. HOW DID THE GROUP FEEL ABOUT THEIR PERFORMANCES WITH THAT IN MIND, ESPECIALLY THAT MOMENT WHERE PRESIDENT BIDEN STRUGGLED TO FINISH A THOUGHT AND WAS CUT OFF BY THE MODERATOR? >> Reporter: THAT WAS A MOMENT THAT REPLAYED AT THE END OF THE DEBATE BECAUSE IT'S BEEN GETTING SO MUCH ATTENTION. LISTEN TO HOW THEY REACTED. >> I DIDN'T THINK THAT THAT ONE MOMENT TOOK AWAY FROM EVERYTHING ELSE THAT HE HAD TO SAY. >> I THOUGHT TRUMP WAS UNHINGED FOR 90 STREET MINUTES. I THINK COMPARING THAT LITTLE STUMBLE FROM BIDEN TO RACIST RANTINGS FOR 90 MINUTES, THERE'S NO COMPARISON. >> Reporter: ONE GOOD THING TO KEEP IN MIND, THESE ARE FOLKS TUNED INTO THE DEBATE AND WERE WATCHING EVERY MINUTE. TALKING TO THEMSELVES ABOUT THE REACTIONS AT THEIR OWN REACTIONS IN REAL TIME. MOST AMERICANS DON'T WATCH THE DEBATE LIKE THAT. THEY SEE THE CLIPS, THE HIGHLIGHTS, THE CONVERSATIONS AFTERWARDS. THERE IS SOMETIMES A DIVIDE BETWEEN WHAT PEOPLE BELIEVE ONCE THERE WATCHING IT REAL- TIME AND HOW THEY FEEL AFTERWARDS. THAT IS SOMETHING WE WILL WATCH IN THE DAYS AND WEEKS TO COME. >> INTERESTING TO HEAR THEIR IMMEDIATE REACTIONS. THANK YOU FOR JOINING US. >>> AS AMERICANS GET READY TO CELEBRATE THE FOURTH OF JULY, OFFICIALS PREDICT THE HOLIDAY TRAVEL RUSH WILL SET A NEW RECORD. NEARLY 71 MILLION PEOPLE ARE EXPECTED TO TAKE SOME KIND OF TRIP ACCORDING TO AAA AND TSA PREDICTS IT COULD BE ONE OF THE BUSIEST TRAVEL PERIODS EVER FOR AIRPORTS ACROSS THE COUNTRY. THERE'S CONCERN THAT ALL THIS COULD BE HAMPERED BY SEVERE WEATHER. MAGGIE VESPA IS AT CHICAGO O'HARE WITH MORE. GOOD MORNING. >> Reporter: GOOD MORNING. THE CROWD WE TALKED ABOUT AN HOUR ABOUT HIS BACK. IT'S WORTH POINTING OUT WE AREN'T EVEN IN JULY BUT THE JULY 4 TRAVEL RUSH IS OFFICIALLY ON. TSA EXPECTING CLOSE TO 3 MILLION SCREENINGS TODAY ALONE. OVERALL, SUMMER TRAVEL IS EXPECTED TO GET A RECORD BREAKING BOOM FOR AMERICA'S BIRTHDAY.

AAA PREDICTING A RECORD 70 MILLION AMERICANS WILL TRAVEL THIS HOLIDAY WEEK WITH SOME 60 MILLION HITTING THE ROADS AND ANOTHER 5 MILLION FLYING TO THEIR LOCATION. BOTH TOTALS TOPPING LAST YEAR'S JULY 4 TRAVEL RUSH, OVERALL NUMBERS SLATED TO SMASH RECORDS SET BEFORE THE PANDEMIC. >> EVERY YEAR PRIOR TO THE PANDEMIC, TRAVIS HAD BEEN MOVING UP AND THEN 2020 WE FELL OFF THE CLIFF. FOR THE FIRST TIME, WE ARE BACK ON THAT TRAJECTORY WE SHOULD HAVE BEEN ALL ALONG. >> Reporter: AIRPORT TRAFFIC EXPECTED TO PEAK TODAY, TOMORROW AND JULY 3. THE SURGE COMING WITH GOODNESS FOR FLYERS. DOMESTIC AIRFARES ARE DOWN 18% FROM LAST YEAR AVERAGING $263 A TICKET. GAS JUMPED A NICKEL IN THE LAST WEEK BUT THE CURRENT NATIONWIDE AVERAGE OF $3.50 IS STILL $0.06 CHEAPER THAN ONE YEAR AGO. >> NO MATTER HOW HIGH GAS PRICES ARE, ONCE PEOPLE DECIDE THEY ARE GOING TO TAKE A VACATION, THEY TAKE THE VACATION. >> Reporter: EXPERTS WARN EVEN THE MOST PATRIOTIC TRAVELERS SHOULD PREPARE FOR THE UNEXPECTED. THIS YEAR COMING AMID AN ONSLAUGHT OF SEVERE WEATHER WITH VIOLENT STORMS BATTERING THE NORTHEAST THIS WEEK AND CATASTROPHIC FLOODING IMPACTING NEIGHBORHOODS IN THE MIDWEST. >> EVERYTHING I HAVE IS GONE. >> Reporter: AS TEMPERATURES CONTINUE TO SOAR, TRAVEL EXPERTS RECOMMEND BOOKING MORNING AND EVENING FLIGHTS TO AVOID DELAYS CAUSED BY HEAT. ADVICE AIMED AT MAKING THE MOST OF THIS INDEPENDENCE DAY. WITH ALL THAT IN MIND, IT'S A GOOD IDEA TO LEAVE EXTRA TIME, ESPECIALLY IF HEADED FOR ONE OF THESE FIVE AIRPORTS. HOPPER LISTING THE ONES EXPECTED TO BE THE BUSIEST DURING THIS JULY 4 TRAVEL RUSH. ATLANTA, DALLAS, DENVER, CHICAGO, AND LAX. BUSINESS DRIVERS, TIPS, AVOID AT ALL COST IF YOU CAN ACTUALLY DRIVING ON THE FOURTH, ESPECIALLY BETWEEN 2:00 AND 7:00 P.M. OTHERWISE IT'S THE LAST MINUTE RUSH. LIKE RUSH HOUR TO MAKE IT TO THE FIREWORKS. >> SON GOOD ICE. >>> WE ARE KEEPING AN EYE AND THREE DIFFERENT STORMS IN THE TROPICS WITH ONE THAT COULD DEVELOP INTO A TROPICAL DEPRESSION. LET'S GET A CHECK IN YOUR MORNING NEWS NOW FORECAST WITH METEOROLOGIST ANGIE LASSMAN. >>> I KNOW IT'S JUNE AND IT IS HURRICANE SEASON BUT WE DON'T USUALLY SEE AT THIS ACTIVE AT THIS POINT ACROSS THE TROPICS, BUT THAT'S WHAT WE ARE GETTING AS WE GEAR UP FOR THE END OF JUNE. A COUPLE SPOTS. ONE IN PARTS OF THE CARIBBEAN SEA, LIKELY A 30% CHANCE OF IT DEVELOPING. WE WILL WATCH IT. IT'S A DISTURBED AREA OF WEATHER RIGHT NOW. WE WILL SEE IF THAT CAN GET INTO SOMETHING, MAYBE BRING HEAVY RAIN ACROSS MEXICO. WE HAVE ONE AREA COMING OFF THE COAST OF AFRICA, 20% CHANCE OF DEVELOPMENT. THIS ONE WHERE YOU SEE 90% WE WILL KEEP A CLOSE EYE ON THE NEXT COUPLE OF DAYS AND INTO NEXT WEEK. TROPICAL DISTURBANCE 90 5L, LIKELY BECOME A TROPICAL DEPRESSION OR TROPICAL STORM. TODAY, TOMORROW, AND IT WILL CONTINUE TO MOVE TO THE WEST. SEE WHERE MODELS ARE TAKING A? FOLKS IN THE WINDWARD ISLANDS, LESSER ANTILLES COULD SEE POTENTIAL IMPACTS, IF WE SEE THIS FAVORABLE ENVIRONMENT CONTINUE WHICH WE LIKELY WILL. IT COULD BE A TROPICAL DEPRESSION OR STORM LATER TODAY OR TOMORROW. WE HAVE TEMPERATURES CALLING FOR HEAT ALERTS. 46 MILLION UNDER HEAT ALERTS. IT'S MOSTLY ACROSS PARTS OF THE PLAINS IN SOUTH. HOUSTON, DALLAS, WICHITA IN THE HEAT ALERTS WITH TEMPERATURES WELL ABOVE NORMAL FOR THIS TIME OF YEAR AND QUITE STEAMY. 100 DEGREES IS THE ACTUAL TEMPERATURE IN DALLAS BUT WILL FEEL LIKE 109. ATLANTA, LOW 90s BUT FEELING LIKE 98. JACKSONVILLE WILL FEEL LIKE 106. WE WILL KEEP IT GOING TOMORROW. 111 IN THE HEAT INDEX VALUE FOR LITTLE ROCK. WICHITA FALLS, ACTUAL TEMPERATURES OF 100 DEGREES AND WE KEEP THAT HEAT IN PLACE EARLY NEXT WEEK. IT WILL BE FEELING LIKE JULY ACROSS THIS REGION. >> IT IS JULY SO I GUESS I SHOULD FEEL LIKE JULY. >>> WE ARE LOOKING AT A SUPREME COURT RULING ON THE HOT BUTTON ISSUE OF ABORTION RIGHTS. YESTERDAY, THE COURT DISMISSED AN APPEAL BROUGHT BY IDAHO OFFICIALS AND WHETHER TO BAN DOCTORS FROM PERFORMING ABORTIONS TO SAVE A MOTHER LIFE. THAT MEANS PROCEDURES ARE ALLOWED FOR NOW. THE RULING SIDESTEPPED A BIGGER QUESTION WHETHER IDAHO'S BAN BUT CONFLICT WITH THE FEDERAL ABOUT CARE FOR EMERGENCY ROOM PATIENTS. SENIOR LEGAL CORRESPONDENT LAURA JARRETT BREAKS IT DOWN. >> Reporter: THE SUPREME COURT'S TERM IS ALMOST OVER AND AS USUAL, THEY SAVED THE BIGGEST DECISIONS TO THE END. THIS CASE OUT OF IDAHO CRYSTALLIZING THE STAKES INVOLVED WHEN STATES PASSED STRICT ABORTION BANS, BY PREDICATE THE JUSTICES OVERTURNING ROE V. WADE TWO YEARS AGO THIS WEEK. THE BATTLE OVER WHO CAN GET AN ABORTION AND WHEN MARCHES ON. THE SUPREME COURT CLEARING THE WAY FOR WOMEN IN IDAHO TO TO RECEIVE ABORTIONS WHEN THEIR HEALTH IS IN JEOPARDY. FOR NOW. BUT SIDESTEPPING A MORE CONCLUSIVE DECISION ON PRECISELY WHAT CARE DOCTORS MUST PROVIDE GOING FORWARD. >> IT PUTS US BACK IN THIS HOLDING PATTERN OF UNCERTAINTY. WE CAN PROVIDE EMERGENCY CARE FOR STABILIZATION IN IDAHO. BUT WE DO NOT HAVE THE REASSURANCE -- >> Reporter: EMTALA, SHORT HEIFER FEDERAL LAW THE BIDEN ADMINISTRATION SAYS REQUIRES HOSPITALS TO PROVIDE ABORTIONS IF NECESSARY TO PROTECT A WOMAN'S HELP ALL THE LAWS IN IDAHO AND AT LEAST SIX OTHER STATES ONLY ALLOW ABORTION TO SAVE A WOMAN'S LIKE. >> WE WILL LITIGATE VIGOROUSLY. >> Reporter: MAJORITY OF THE JUSTICES PUNTING THE ISSUE OF WHO WINS TO THE LOWER COURTS FOR NOW. AND BRIEF UNEXPLAINED OPINIONS IDENTICAL TO THE ONE MISTAKENLY POSTED ONLINE THURSDAY. JUSTICE ALITO IN JACKSON BLASTING COLLEAGUES FOR REFUSING TO TACKLE THE MERITS OF THE ISSUE. THEY WERE SWEEP OF THE QUEBEC EMOTIONAL AND HIGHLY POLITICIZED NATURE OF THE ISSUE. JACKSON WRITING AS LONG AS WE REFUSED TO DECLARE WHAT E LAW REQUIRES, PIGMENTATION AND IDAHO, TEXAS AND ELSEWHERE WILL PAY THE PRICE. THIS IS THE HIGH COURT WADES INTO ANOTHER CLOSELY WATCHED BATTLE. A MULTIBILLION-DOLLAR BANKRUPTCY PLAN INVOLVING PURDUE PHARMA, MAKER THE POWERFUL PAINKILLER OXYCONTIN. THAT DEAL THROWN INTO UNCERTAINTY NOW THAT JUSTICES FOUND THE PLAN WOULD'VE SHIELDED THE SACKLER FAMILY FROM LIABILITY. IT MEANS BILLIONS OF DOLLARS SECURED FOR VICTIMS COULD NOT BE THREATENED. THE COURT WILL RELEASE MORE OPINIONS AS WE WAIT TO SEE A DECISION ON WHETHER FORMER PRESIDENT TRUMP IS IMMUNE FROM ANY PROSECUTION. TODAY, I WILL NOT BE THE LAST DAY THE COURT MAKING THE RAMP TO GO INTO JULY WITH MORE EXPECTED OPINIONS ON MONDAY AS WELL. >>> IN OKLAHOMA, THE TOP EDUCATION OFFICIAL IS ORDERING SCHOOLS TO TEACH THE BIBLE FROM GRADES FIVE THROUGH 12. IN A MEMO SENT OUT TO ALL SCHOOL DISTRICT, THE SUPERINTENDENT OF PUBLIC INSTRUCTION SAID THE NEW ROLE WILL BE EFFECTIVE IMMEDIATELY. THE MEMO GOES ON TO SAY SCHOOLS ARE INSTRUCTED TO REFER TO THE BIBLE IN 10 COMMANDMENTS FOR THE, QUOTE, SUBSTANTIAL INFLUENCE ON THE NATION'S FOUNDERS AND FOUNDATIONAL PRINCIPLES OF THE CONSTITUTION. HERE WITH ME TO DISCUSS, LEGAL ANALYST DANNY CEVALLOS. THE SUPERINTENDENT EXPECTS, QUOTE, IMMEDIATE AND STRICT COMPLIANCE WITH THIS NEW RULE. UNDER STATE LAW HOW CAN HE ENFORCE THIS? >> Reporter: IF YOU'D ASKED ME THIS TUBER THREE OR FOUR YEARS AGO, WOULD'VE BEEN DIFFERENT. AT THE TIME, SUPREME COURT PRECEDENT DICTATED A TEST CALLED THE LEMON TEST. IF YOU HAVE ENTANGLEMENT BETWEEN CHURCH AND STATE, WHATEVER THE STATE IS DOING IS USUALLY UNCONSTITUTIONAL. THAT MAY HAVE CHANGED A COUPLE OF YEARS AGO WHEN THE SUPREME COURT DECISION CAME DOWN AND YOU MAY RECALL THE FOOTBALL COACH WHO WANTED TO PRAY AFTER THE GAME IN THE MIDFIELD OF THE FOOTBALL FIELD THAT WE MAY BE UNDER A NEW REGIME WHICH IS AN ANALYSIS OF THE HISTORICAL TRADITION OF WHAT IS BEING TAUGHT IN SCHOOL. IT APPEARS A LOT OF SCHOOL DISTRICTS AND STATES ARE SAYING, AS LONG AS WE CAN TETHER IT TO A HISTORICAL TRADITION IN THE UNITED STATES, IT MAY PASS CONSTITUTIONAL MUSTER. IT IS UNTESTED AND MAY NOT SURVIVE. YOU CAN EXPECT THERE WILL BE SWIFT CHALLENGES. I THINK THERE'S ALREADY A PROMISE OF SWIFT CHALLENGE. >> THERE'S CRITICISM INCLUDING AMERICANS UNITED FOR SEPARATION OF CHURCH AND STATE CALLING THIS ABUSE OF PUBLIC OFFICE. WHAT COULD THE ARGUMENT BE ESPECIALLY IF IT DOES GO TO COURT. >> IT WILL CERTAINLY GO TO COURT AND IT'S ROOTED IN THE CONSTITUTION WHICH COMMANDS THERE SHALL NOT BE ENTANGLEMENTS BETWEEN CHURCH AND STATE. SOMETIMES, THE SUPREME COURT CREATES NEW PRECEDENT AND LEFT TO INTERPRET IT. WHAT I SEE THIS IS AS SOME STATES AND SCHOOL DISTRICTS ARE TAKING INCOME AGGRESSIVE INTERPRETATION OF THE SUPREME COURT PRECEDENT AND SAYING, WE READ IT AS SAYING JUST AS LONG AS WE HAVE CONNECTION TO HISTORICAL TRADITIONS, THEN WE HAVE A SHOT AT SURVIVING AND WILL TAKE OUR CHANCES IN THE COURT. AT LEAST IT WILL LAST FOR AS LONG AS IT TAKES TO GET TO THE APPEALS COURT. IN ALL LIKELIHOOD, THIS KIND OF CONNECTION BETWEEN SCHOOLS AND RELIGIOUS CONSTRUCTION IS NOT LIKELY TO SURVIVE NO MATTER WHAT CURRENT SUPREME COURT PRECEDENT IS. >> IN ADDITION, THE REPUBLICAN GOVERNOR OF OKLAHOMA APPROVED A SET OF RULES THAT INCLUDES TIME FOR PRAYER IN SCHOOLS. IS THIS DIFFERENT? >> IT'S IN THE SAME BUCKET. A PUBLIC SCHOOL, PUBLIC ENTITY AND MOST OFTEN IT'S IN SCHOOLS, AND YOU SEE THE INTRODUCTION OF PRAYER WHETHER IT'S ORGANIZED PRAYER, UNORGANIZED PRAYER OF PARTICULAR DENOMINATION, YOU WILL GET A CHALLENGE. UNDER THE OLD REGIME IT WAS THE LEMON TEST WHICH LOOKED AT ENTANGLEMENT. NOW IT'S NOT CERTAIN WHAT THAT TEST WILL BE. GIVEN THE CONSTITUTION HAS BEEN CLEAR ON THIS ISSUE, THIS SEEMS TO BE A PRETTY EASY DECISION WHEN OR IF IT MAKES IT TO THE SUPREME COURT. >>> MUCH MORE TO COMMON THIS HOUR OF MORNING NEWS NOW INCLUDING NEW DEVELOPMENTS IN THE MURDER CASE AGAINST BRYAN KOHBERGER.

ALL THE CANDIDATES ARE CHOSEN BY THE SUPREME COUNCIL AND A CONSERVATIVE BODY WHOSE PURPOSE IS TO UPHOLD THE ISLAMIC REPUBLIC. >> ONLY A LIMITED NUMBER OF REGIME LOYALISTS ARE ALLOWED TO RUN FOR PRESIDENT. >> Reporter: ONLY ONE, THIS IS CONSIDERED MORE, QUOTE, MODERATE. >> TRYING TO SAY TO PEOPLE, YOUR PROBLEMS MAYBE 10 OUT OF 10 NOW.

OFTEN TIMES PEOPLE THINK THEY HAVE IT AND THEY TAKE A TEST AND IT'S NEGATIVE BUT THEN A DAY OR TWO THEY HAVE A POSITIVE TEST. >> THAT IS RIGHT. DOCTORS SAY ESPECIALLY DAY ONE OF SYMPTOMS, THE TESTS CAN PROVIDE FALSE NEGATIVES. THE ADVICE IS TO TAKE A TEST ON DAY TWO, THREE, AND EVEN FOUR. STAY HOME FROM WORK WHILE YOU ARE FEELING ILL. THERE IS NO MANDATES FOR ISOLATION ANYMORE. THE BEST ADVICE IS STAY AWAY FROM PEOPLE, LAY LOW UNTIL YOU ARE FEELING BETTER. >> IF YOU'RE SICK WHETHER COVID OR NOT, BEST NOT TO GET OTHERS SICK AS WELL. A CDC PANEL MET YESTERDAY TO TALK ABOUT VACCINE RECOMMENDATIONS FOR THE FALL. WHAT DO WE KNOW? DO WE KNOW WHEN WE MAKE THE NEXT ROUND OF SHOTS? >> SHOULD BE AVAILABLE IN AUGUST OR SEPTEMBER. THE CDC RECOMMENDS EVERYBODY SIX MONTHS OR OLDER GET THOSE VACCINES. THE SHOTS ARE REFORMULATED TO MORE CLOSELY MATCH THIS STRAIN THAT'S GOING AROUND. THE CDC DIRECTOR SAID THE TOP RECOMMENDATION IS TO PROTECT HERSELF AND LOVED ONES FROM RESPIRATORY ILLNESS. THE BEST WAY TO DO THAT IS GET VACCINATED. AS OF LAST MONTH, ONLY ABOUT -- LESS THAN A QUARTER OF U.S. ADULTS WERE UP TO DATE ON COVID SHOTS. >> THANK YOU SO MUCH. >>> A HOPE PROFILE PACK CAUSING MAJOR HEADACHES FOR THE AUTO INDUSTRY.

SUMMER IS OFFICIALLY HERE AND WITH IT PEAK SEASON FOR CAR BUYING. THIS YEAR THERE'S BEEN A MAJOR WRENCH THROWN INTO THE WORKS.

CDK SAID THEY HAVE BEEN ABLE TO RESTORE A SMALL GROUP OF DEALERS BACK ONLINE. THEY STILL DON'T KNOW THE TOTAL NUMBER OF DEALERSHIPS IMPACTED. THE SERVICE ABOUT 15,000 NATIONWIDE. IN THE MEANTIME, EXPERTS SAY IT'S TOO EARLY TO TELL OF SPECIFIC ELEMENTS LIKE PERSONAL DATA HAVE BEEN COMPROMISED SO AT LEAST FOR RIGHT NOW, IT LOOKS LIKE A BUMPY ROAD AHEAD. >>> MORE MONEY NEWS. IT'S A FLAG ON THE FIELD FOR THE NFL AFTER A CALIFORNIA JURY HANDED DOWN A VERDICT IN A MULTIBILLION-DOLLAR CLASS- ACTION LAWSUIT. BERTHA COOMBS HAS THE PLAY-BY- PLAY ALONG WITH OTHER MONEY HEADLINES. GOOD MORNING. >>> THOSE DAD JOKES ARE FLOWING. A FEDERAL JURY SAID THE NFL MUST PAY NEARLY $5 BILLION IN DAMAGES FOR OVERCHARGING SUBSCRIBERS OF ITS SUNDAY TICKET PACKAGE. PLAINTIFFS ACCUSE THE NFL OF CONSPIRING WITH TEAMS TO INFLATE THE PRICE OF THE SUNDAY TICKET FOR MILLIONS OF RESIDENTIAL AND OTHER SUBSCRIBERS SUCH AS BARS AND RESTAURANTS.

FRIEND OF THE SHOW DARREN IS HERE AND MUCH MORE >> NEWS FOR THE GENERATION OF NOW IS NBC NEWS NOW. >>> FINALLY ON FRIDAYS WE HAVE THE CAN'T MISS LIST WITH EVERYTHING YOU CAN'T MISS OUT ON INCLUDING THE EAGERLY AWAITED RETURN OF THE PIER. BRAVO PERSONALITY AND HOST OF SHAKEN AND DISTURBED JOINS US WITH EVERYTHING WE HAVE TO WATCH THIS WEEKEND. IT'S GOING TO BE HOT. STORMY. WE WILL GET TO THE BEAR BUT LET'S START WITH THE THEATERS, QUIET PLACE, DAY ONE. I LOVED THE FIRST QUIET PLACE MOVIE. IT WAS MY FIRST -- FAVORITE MOVIE. >> THE ORIGINAL MAKES ME THINK IT'S THE MOST SCARY MOVIE I'VE SEEN IN A WHILE. THIS ONE IS A LITTLE DIFFERENT. JOHN KRASINSKI IS NOT PART OF THIS. THIS IS MICHAEL. IT'S A LITTLE DIFFERENT FEEL. IT HITS CLOSE TO HOME FOR US BECAUSE IT TAKES PLACE IN NEW YORK CITY. SHE'S VISITING NEW YORK CITY AT THE MOST INOPPORTUNE TIME AND HAS TO ACCLIMATE TO THIS NEW WORLD OR LACK THEREOF WITH A STRANGER PLAYED BY --. IT'S ON THE EDGE OF YOUR SEAT AS THE OTHER ONES. >> YOU CAN'T MAKE ALL THE NOISE. THEY MONSTERS HAVE SUPERSONIC HEARING. >> THE NEXT ONE SOUNDS FASCINATING. SEAN PENN, DAKOTA JOHNSON AND THE MOVIE IS SET IN A CAR RIDE, TAXI RIDE FROM JFK TO NEW YORK CITY. THIS COULD GO ONE OF TWO WAYS. >> IT'S JUST THE TWO OF THEM THE ENTIRE TIME. JOHNSON PLAYS THE PASSENGER. SEAN PENN PLAYS THE CABDRIVER. THE WHOLE TRIP IS JUST THEIR CONVERSATION THEY ARE HAVING TOGETHER BUT IT'S HER DIRECTORIAL DEBUT. IT'S BEAUTIFUL AND IT SHOWS THE TRAFFIC YOU GET CAUGHT IN BUT THE CONVERSATIONS ARE SO DEEP. EVEN IF YOU WATCH THE TRAILER, YOU ARE AND MASHED IN A. THE DIRECTOR DID A GOOD JOB OF MAKING THIS ONE OCCASION, LIVE. >> IF IT'S AN HOUR AND A HALF, THAT'S A LONG TRIP. >> IT IS A LONG CONVERSATION BUT ALMOST SEAN PENN AT HIS FINEST. >> THE BEAR, SEASON THREE IS BACK. THEY HAVE THE FANCY RESTAURANT NOW. WHAT ARE FOLKS SAYING? >> ALL THE EPISODES THAT WERE SUPPOSED TO DROP IT THEY DROPPED ON WEDNESDAY. IT'S A FAST-PACED SHOW. IT CAME AT ONE YEAR FROM WHEN IT ORIGINALLY CAME OUT. IT GOT 100% ON ROTTEN TOMATOES AND NOW IT'S 94%. IT'S NOT AS GOOD BUT THAT'S STILL PRETTY GOOD. THIS IS EXCELLENT. I THINK IT'S A LITTLE GRITTY. WE REALLY GET INTO THE DEPTHS AND SOLD THE RESTAURANT AND THE CHARACTERS PLAYING. THE PARTNER HAS HER DIRECTORIAL DEBUT IN EPISODE SIX WHICH IS APPARENTLY PRETTY AMAZING. >> YOU HAVE TO CHANGE THINGS UP AND I CAN'T WAIT TO WATCH IT. IT'S A COMEDY ACCORDING TO THE ENEMIES. FANCY DANCE IS STREAMING. LILY GLADSTONE. SHE'S AN OSCAR NOMINEE AND THIS PERFORMANCE IS GETTING RAVE REVIEWS. >> IT IS. IT CAME AT DURING SUNDANCE FESTIVAL BUT DIDN'T GET DISTRIBUTION PICK UP. THE POPULARITY OF FLOWERS OF THE KILLERS MOON. HER SISTER IS MISSING SO SHE IS RESPONSIBLE FOR HER NIECE. AS THEY ARE -- THEIR PARENTAL RELATIONSHIP GETS THREATENED BY THE GRANDFATHER WILLING TO TAKE OVER PARENTING THE KIDS, THEY GO ON A ROAD TRIP TO FIND THE MISSING MOTHER, SISTER. IT'S GUTWRENCHING AND REALLY POWERFUL. I RECOMMEND THIS. >> THE NEXT ONE, TIKTOK MEETS THE TUTORS IS HOW SUMMER DESCRIBING MY LADY JANE ON AMAZON PRIME. >> THIS IS DIFFERENT BECAUSE IT'S HISTORICAL COMITY. IF YOU KNOW LADY JANE CRANE, SHE BECAME THE QUEEN OF ENGLAND AND FOR NINE DAYS BEFORE GETTING BEHEADED. I THINK IT WAS ONE OF THE MOST FAMOUS FOR HER DEATH THAN HER LIFE. THIS FLIPS IT AND SHE BECOMES QUEEN FOR A LITTLE LONGER AND A DIFFERENT TRAJECTORY. IT'S VERY FUNNY AND PRETTY WITTY AND GIVES SOME HISTORICAL CONTEXT. >> MEGAN THEE STALLION HAS A NEW ALBUM OUT. >> HER THIRD ALBUM. SOME ARE INCREDIBLE. IT'S GOOD TO LISTEN TO FOR PRIDE. IT COMES WITH AMAZON PRIME. >>> I LOVE IT BUT THIS ALBUM IS AWESOME. 18 TRACKS. WE HAVE BEEN WAITED ON BAITED BREATH FOR IT. I FEEL LIKE ANYTHING THAT MEGHAN LIVES ON. I'M HERE FOR IT. >> ALREADY. GOOD FOR YOU. THANK YOU FOR BEING WITH US. THAT WILL DO IT FOR THIS
