THIS IMAGE EMERGED FROM THE SCENE OF STUDENTS BALANCING ON THE THIN LEDGE OF A BUILDING AND HOLDING ONTO EACH OTHER AS THEY TRIED TO HIDE. HERE'S WHAT WE KNOW ABOUT THAT SUSPECT RIGHT NOW. POLICE SAY HE WAS A STUDENT AT THE SCHOOL AND BELIEVE HE ACTED ALONE. AUTHORITIES SAY THE GUNMAN'S FATHER WAS ALSO FOUND DEAD TODAY AND THAT THE SUSPECT MIGHT BE RESPONSIBLE FOR A DOUBLE HOMICIDE LAST WEEK. THE COUNTRY'S PRIME MINISTER SAYING, CHRISTMAS THIS YEAR WILL BE INCREASINGLY SAD. IN PRAGUE, WITH THE DETAILS. >> PANIC IN PRAGUE IS A GUNMAN OPENED FIRE ON A COLLEGE CAMPUS. IMAGES OF TERRIFIED STUDENTS, CROUCHING HIGH UP ON A LEDGE. >> MAKING A BARRICADE, WE WERE WALKING AWAY. >> A GUN MAN, OPENING FIRE IN THE CITY'S OLD TOWN. THEY SAY HE KILLED 14 IN THE CZECH REPUBLIC. S.W.A.T. TEAMS, RUSHING TO THE SCENE. THIS TOWN, USUALLY PACK WITH HOLIDAY TAURUS AS POLICE VEHICLES COME IN. ONE STUDENT. POLICE SAY THE SUSPECT IS DEAD. THERE WAS A FIREFIGHT. THE WHITE HOUSE, LATE TODAY. THEY INVESTIGATE THIS INCIDENT. >> WHAT IS THE LATEST ON THE INVESTIGATION? >> THAT BALCONY, THAT'S WHERE YOU SAW THE STUDENTS IN THE REPORT, WITH FORENSIC OFFICERS UP THERE, BUT SO FAR, THEY SAY THAT THERE IS NO SIGN OF ACCOMPLICES OR A TERROR MOTIVE. >> THERE HAVE TO BE SO MANY DIFFERENT EMOTIONS IN THAT CITY FOR THE PEOPLE WHO CALL IT HOME. WHAT THEY EXPECT DID, THEIR SAFETY, ALL OF IT, SHATTERED. WHAT'S IT LIKE IN PRAGUE RIGHT NOW? >> TO SAY THE LEAST, THIS IS INCREDIBLY UNUSUAL. THEY HAVE NOT SEEN SOMETHING LIKE THIS IN THE MODERN CZECH REPUBLIC HISTORY. THIS PLACE SHOULD BE BUSTLING AND IT IS SILENT TONIGHT. MANY ROADS WERE CLOSED. YOU CAN SEE THAT MANY ARE TRYING TO TAKE IN WHAT'S HAPPENED TODAY. >>> BACK AT HOME, AND MAJOR HEADLINE IN POLITICS MADE RUDY GIULIANI, THE ONCE RESPECTED NEW YORK MAYOR AND FORMER ATTORNEY FOR DONALD TRUMP HAS FILED FOR BANKRUPTCY. THIS COMES AFTER A JURY LAST WEEK SLAMMED HIM WITH A $140 MILLION VERDICT AGAINST HIM FOR DEFAMING TWO FORMER GEORGIA ELECTION WORKERS. FOR MORE ON THIS FILING AND WHAT IT MEANS, JOINING ME NOW. TALK TO US ABOUT WHAT'S HAPPENING BECAUSE THERE'S ALWAYS A SITUATION OR MULTIPLE THINGS CAN BE TRUE AT ONCE, RIGHT? >> IT SEEMS LIKE HE THAT THIS IS A LEGAL STRATEGY. >> BANKRUPTCY, CHAPTER 11 IN PARTICULAR, IT ALLOWS SOMEONE TO FILE AND REMAIN A TRUSTEE IN POSSESSION OF THEIR OWN ASSETS BUT WHAT HAPPENS WHEN YOU SAY TO THE WORLD HEY, I DON'T HAVE ENOUGH ASSETS TO PAY MY LIABILITIES AND I HAVE DEBTORS LINED UP? THERE'S A COMPLEX SYSTEM OF DECIDING WHO AMONG YOUR CREDITORS SHOULD BE AT THE FRONT OF THE LINE AND WHO SHOULD BE AT THE BACK. YOU HAVE SECURED CREDITORS AT THE FRONT, UNSECURE AT THE BACK. THERE ARE DIFFERENT EXAMPLES, BUT THEY MAY NOT NECESSARILY GET PAID, BUT THEY HAVE TO GET IN LINE WITH EVERYBODY ELSE, ACCORDING TO THE PRIORITY OF THE CREDITORS SO IT IS FRUSTRATING. >> LOOKING AT WHAT WE LEARNED ABOUT THOSE FINANCES, CREDITORS JUST OVER $1 MILLION AND $700,000 IN FEDERAL BACK TAXES, 300,000 IN DELINQUENT STATE TAXES. HE SAYS HE OWES HUNTER BIDEN MONEY AND WE ARE HEARING REPORTS THAT HUNTER BIDEN IS NOW SUING RUDY GIULIANI FOR MISINFORMATION. WHEN YOU FILE FOR BANKRUPTCY, ARE YOU ABLE TO NOT DISCLOSE? >> IN ADDITION, THE SIMPLEST EXAMPLE IS THAT IF YOU LIST THE HOME AS PART OF THAT IS EIGHT, YOU CAN'T GO IN THERE AND TAKE OUT AN OLD VALUABLE OR JEWELRY OR SOMETHING CONSIDERED PART OF THE ESTATE AND LIQUIDATED. THAT IS SOMETHING THAT BANKRUPTCY COURTS ARE MINDFUL OF. LIKE SOMEONE WHO'S NOT IN BANKRUPTCY AFTER ALL, THOSE DECISIONS ARE HOW PEOPLE ARRIVE AT THESE COURTS TO BEGIN WITH. RUDY GIULIANI WILL BE WATCHED. THAT'S THE PRICE YOU PAY. THERE WILL BE CREDITORS LINED UP. >> WITH THAT SUPREME COURT, FROM THE PRESIDENTIAL PRIMARY BALLOT. THE COURT HAS MADE THAT DECISION AND WE ARE NOW LEARNING HIS LEGAL TEAM WILL LIKELY FILE AN APPEAL TO THE SUPREME COURT AS EARLY AS NEXT WEEK. IT'S NOT A HUGE SURPRISE BECAUSE LOOKING AT THE TIMING, WHEN THE FIRST STATE WILL VOTE. THE TIMELINE, WHAT YOU THINK IS THE LEGAL EFFORT THEY MAKE? >>THEY CAN ALMOST LIST THEM IN BULLET POINTS, THE DIFFERENT LEGAL ISSUES. SECTION 3 OF THE 14th AMENDMENT, THEN INSURRECTIONIST CANNOT RUN FOR OFFICE. THERE ARE A NUMBER OF ISSUES SURROUNDING THAT, THE DISTRICT COURT, THE LOWER COURT CONCLUDED THAT TRUMP DID ENGAGE IN INSURRECTION AND CONCLUDED THAT HE IS NOT AN OFFICER IN SECTION 3 AND IF YOU LOOK AT THAT TEXT, IT WAS A LOT OF DIFFERENT JOBS AND IT DOES NOT LIST THE PRESIDENT WHICH IS AN ARGUMENT THAT MAY BE MADE ON THAT DETERMINATION AND THESE LEGAL ISSUES, THEY WILL LOOK AT IT WITH FRESH EYES AND MAY NOT GIVE DEFERENCE. IS THIS EVEN SOMETHING THAT IS JUST VISIBLE BY THE COURT? THERE ARE CERTAIN QUESTIONS. THEY WILL FILE SUIT IN DISTRICT COURT. THEY SAY THAT IMPEACHMENT IS SOLELY THE PROVIDENCE OF CONGRESS AND YOU'RE COUNTING UP THOSE ISSUES, ANY ONE OF THOSE IN THE SUPREME COURT. >> UNTIL JANUARY 4th, ON JANUARY 5th, THE REPUBLICAN PRIMARY, THEY START WILLING AND NOT ON THE 15th OF JANUARY. CAN THE SUPREME COURT POSSIBLY GET THROUGH THIS AND GET TO THE LEGAL ARGUMENTS IN A TIMELY MANNER? >> ALMOST EVERY TIME I AM ON AIR, WE GET ASKED HOW SOON? AND IF I'M BEING CANDID, INVOLVING CASES YOU NEVER HEARD OF, THE ANSWER IS, WHO KNOWS? IT TAKES YEARS. MOST LAWYERS NEVER HAVE AN OPPORTUNITY, AND YET, WE HAVE A JANUARY 4th DEADLINE OVER THE HOLIDAYS. THE SUPREME COURT MAY HAVE TO DEAL WITH JUST THAT ISSUE AND IT LOOKS LIKE NOBODY WILL GO HOME AMONG TRUMP'S ATTORNEYS OR ANYONE INVOLVED IN ANY OF THESE HOT BUTTON ISSUES THAT HAVE CLOCKS TICKING. >> IT'S MIND-BOGGLING WHEN YOU LOOK AT THESE UPCOMING DAYS. WE APPRECIATE IT. >>> TO THE HOLIDAY TRAVEL CRUNCH IN A STORM SYSTEM SLAMMING THE WEST COAST, CAUSING AIR TRAVEL DELAYS AND CANCELLATIONS, I HUNDRED AND 16 MILLION PEOPLE ARE SET TO TRAVEL THIS CHRISTMAS HOLIDAY, THE MOST SINCE 2019. TOM COSTELLO HAS THE LATEST. >> ON THE BUSIEST PRE-CHRISTMAS AIR TRAVEL DAY, HEAVY VOLUME CALIFORNIA RAIN HAVE LED TO 3000 FLIGHT DELAYS NATIONWIDE IN LOS ANGELES AND DALLAS.

IF THE WEATHER GOES BAD ON THE EAST COAST, YOU'LL FEEL THAT SQUEEZE BETWEEN THE D.C. AND NEW YORK. THE DEICING TRUCKS ARE READY. ONE SNOWSTORM COULD SLOW AIR TRAVEL TO A CRAWL. NEARLY EVERY AIRPORT HAS SEEN RECORD PASSENGER VOLUMES THIS YEAR, UP NEARLY 14%. MEANWHILE, MOST AMERICANS ARE DRIVING WITH 27 STATES AVERAGING THREE DOLLARS A GALLON OR LESS, CHRISTMAS RELIEF. >> HEAVY RAIN IS CONTINUING WITH 26 MILLION PEOPLE IN THE SOUTHWEST STILL UNDER FLOOD WATCHES AS WE HEAD FOR THE HOLIDAY. SO, WHAT'S THE LATEST? >> SOUTHERN CALIFORNIA, BUT IT'S NOT WIDESPREAD. OVER THE TOP, SANTA BARBARA, TO THE NORTH, WE HAVE A FOOT OF RAIN, ALREADY. SANTA BARBARA ITSELF, SIX INCHES OF RAIN. NOT A LOT OF IT HAS BEEN FALLING, BUT THAT WILL CHANGE. THESE STORMS PEAKED TONIGHT AND EARLY TOMORROW AND INTO ARIZONA SO THERE'S THAT FLASH FLOOD WARNING. EVERYBODY ELSE HAS A CHANCE FOR SIMILAR BUT I DON'T THINK THAT ANYONE WILL SEE IS THAT IS WHAT WE SEE, HERE. WE HAVE ANOTHER BATCH OF HEAVY RAIN AND AN INCH OF A HALF -- INCH AND HALF OF RAIN, WHICH IS IMPRESSIVE IN THAT LOCATION. FRIDAY, L.A., SAN DIEGO, INTO PHOENIX. >> SO WHAT IF YOU ARE SOMEONE WHO DECIDED TO TRAVEL CLOSER TO THE HOLIDAY, CHRISTMAS MORNING OR CHRISTMAS EVE? WHAT'S THE OUTLOOK? >> WE WILL TRACK THAT SAME STORM PAID EAST COAST, NO PROBLEM, CHICAGO, BUT IT'S CLEARLY WARM, UPPER 40s TO LOW 50s IN THE STORMS MOVE INTO THIS REGION IN COLORADO WAS HIGH ELEVATION AND RAINY WEATHER. IT'S KIND OF GLOOMY WITH CLOUDY SKIES IN THE VALLEY. INTO CHRISTMAS EVE, THIS IS WHERE THAT STORM IS REALLY STRONG WITH THUNDERSTORMS AND HEAVY RAIN. 65 DEGREES, WITH RAIN AND WEATHER AND COLORADO, WYOMING, TO WESTERN NEBRASKA THAT, EXPECTING SNOW ON CHRISTMAS EVE. I FEEL BAD. SOAKING RAIN THROUGHOUT MUCH OF THE COUNTRY. EVEN IF YOU LOOK OKAY, THAT RAIN IS COMING OUR WAY. >>> NOW, THE RECORD NUMBER OF MIGRANTS CROSSING AT THE SOUTHERN BORDER. 12,000 CROSSING IN A SINGLE DAY WITH PROCESSING CENTERS AT CAPACITY. THE STATE OF TEXAS FINDS SOME MIGRANTS ARE IN CHICAGO, SPARKING PUSHBACK FROM THE MAYOR OF THE WINDY CITY AS THEY FACE A GROWING CRISIS. >> TEXAS GOVERNOR, GREG ABBOTT, RELEASED THIS VIDEO OF STATE OFFICIALS FLYING ROUGHLY 100 MIGRANTS TO CHICAGO AFTER CHICAGO OFFICIALS STARTED FINDING BUSES THAT MADE PREVIOUS TRIPS. THEY SAID THEY WILL CONTINUE TO PROVIDE OVERWHELMED TOWNS WITH MUCH-NEEDED ASSISTANCE. CHICAGO'S MAYOR FIRED BACK. >> BEAR DROPPING PEOPLE ANYWHERE. DO YOU UNDERSTAND HOW RAGGEDY AND EVIL THAT IS? >> THEY'VE HAD MASSIVE CROWDS, 12,000 MIGRAINES PER DAY, THE HIGHEST NUMBERS EVER REPORTED. A RECORD 27,000 MIGRAINES ARE NOW BEING DETAINED AND WILL BE PROCESSED AND MOST WILL BE RELEASED TO THE U.S. WITH CUSTOMS AND BORDER PROTECTION COMPLETELY OVERWHELMED, DOZENS OF MIGRANTS HAVE TO WAIT IN THIS FIELD, MANY SLEEPING OVERNIGHT, WHICH IS CREATING A HUMANITARIAN CRISIS AS GROUPS CONTINUE ARRIVING FROM MEXICO. WE SPOKE WITH THIS GROUP FROM VENEZUELA. THEY SAY A LOT OF THE PEOPLE ARE DEHYDRATED AND HAVE WALKED FOR 30 HOURS. >> FIRST RESPONSE CREWS HAVE WORKED NONSTOP TO ATTEND TO MEDICAL NEEDS, RECEIVING MORE THAN DOUBLE THE AMOUNT OF PATIENTS THEY CAN HANDLE. >> THEY ARE BEYOND CAPABILITIES. >> NOW, FROM EAGLE PASS, TEXAS. ARE THERE FEARS THAT THE SITUATION COULD GET SIGNIFICANTLY WORSE? COULD WE SEE HIGHER NUMBERS IN CUSTODY OVER CHRISTMAS AND NEW YEAR'S? >> THERE IS NO WAY TO KNOW FOR SURE. WHAT WE DO KNOW FROM CONVERSATIONS WE'VE HAD WITH MIGRANTS IS THAT LARGE GROUPS ARE STILL IN MEXICO. I ASKED IF THEY KNEW HOW BIG THE CROWDS WERE AND THEY SAID THEY KNOW PEOPLE WHO ARE DOWN THERE IN GROUPS OF 3 TO 500 SO THERE ARE STILL THOUSANDS. THEY TELL ME THAT THEY ARE WORKING TO STOP THE FLOW IN MEXICO BUT THEY THERE'S NOT ENOUGH OFFICERS SO IT SEEMS LIKE THERE'S NO ONE TO STOP THOSE NUMBERS FROM ARRIVING. WE SAW ANOTHER GROUP COME AND THEY CONTINUE TO MAKE THEIR WAY THROUGH EAGLE PASS, SO THERE'S NO WAY TO KNOW, BUT WE DO KNOW THAT MORE MIGRANTS ARE IN MEXICO . >> SO HOW IS THE BIDEN ADMINISTRATION RESPONDING TO THE INCREASE? >> WE NOW KNOW THAT PRESIDENT BIDEN HAD A PHONE CALL WITH MEXICO'S PRESIDENT WHICH IS VERY IMPORTANT AGAIN, BECAUSE THESE LARGE GROUPS ARE COMING THROUGH MEXICO, SO AFTER THAT CONVERSATION, THE SECRETARY IS GOING TO TRAVEL TO MEXICO TO TALK ABOUT THE ACTIONS THAT THEY SAY NEED TO BE TAKEN TO FIX THIS PROBLEM OR DO SOMETHING ABOUT THIS. >> IN TEXAS, THANK YOU. >>> NEXT, HOPES FOR ANOTHER CEASE-FIRE ANYTIME SOON BETWEEN ISRAEL AND HAMAS. NEW REPORTING THAT HAMAS REJECT DID IN ISRAELI OFFICER. MOLLY HUNTER HAS THE LATEST. >>> AS ISRAEL INTENSIFIES THE WAR, A NEW REPORT THAT HAMAS HAS REJECTED CEASE-FIRE IN EXCHANGE FOR THE RELEASE OF DOZENS OF HOSTAGES INCLUDING REMAINING WOMEN AND CHILDREN. TODAY, THEY ANNOUNCED THAT THEY REFUSED AND HE TALKS ABOUT RELEASING HOSTAGES, SOMETHING THAT ISRAEL AND THE U.S. SAID WOULD BE HORRENDOUS AFTER HAMAS KILLED 1200 PEOPLE. >> THERE HAVE BEEN SERIOUS TALKS AND NEGOTIATIONS, TRYING TO GET BACK INTO ANOTHER PAUSE. >> INSIDE GAZA, THE AIRSTRIKES ARE RELENTLESS. THIS BOY SAYS WHY? THE U.N. SOUNDED THE ALARM, REPORTING THAT HALF 1 MILLION PEOPLE IN GAZA ARE STARVING AND THIS WEEK, THE W.H.O. DELIVERED CRITICAL SUPPLIES TO OVERWHELM -- AND OVERWHELMED HOSPITAL IN THE NORTH. >> THAT IS SUCH A DANGEROUS JOURNEY AND THEY ALSO VISITED AND IT WAS UNBELIEVABLE, SO OVERWHELMING. PEOPLE WERE BADLY INJURED, ASKING FOR FOOD AND WATER AND THE W.H.O. SAID THERE ARE NO FULLY FUNCTIONING HOSPITALS IN GAZA. >>> NOW, TO THE IMPACT OF THE WAR BETWEEN ISRAEL AND HAMAS HERE AT HOME.

IT'S HARD TO VERIFY THE DETAILS OF THE STORY BUT IT IS UNDENIABLE. >> I GREW UP IN IT. I WILL HAVE NO CHILDHOOD LEFT. >> HE AND HIS WIFE STRUGGLED TO BE HOPEFUL ABOUT THE FUTURE. >> DOES THAT INCREASE SUPPORT? FOR HAMAS? >> UNFORTUNATELY, YES. >> PRESIDENT BIDEN WAS IN THIS CHAIR, WHAT WOULD YOU SAY TO HIM? IT'S MAC ONE PHONE CALL CAN STOP IT. YOU CAN DO IT. >> HE SAYS THAT LIVING HERE HE EXPERIENCED PEACE FOR THE FIRST TIME AND WORRIED THAT HIS FAMILY BACK HOME WILL NEVER GET THE CHANCE. >>> TO THE GROWING PLAGIARISM ACCUSATIONS AGAINST HARVARD UNIVERSITY'S PRESIDENT AFTER SHE FACES CRITICISM FOR HER TESTIMONY IN CONGRESS ABOUT ANTI-SEMITISM ON SCHOOL CAMPUS. THE LATEST ROUND OF TROUBLE AND HOW THE UNIVERSITY IS RESPONDING. >>> HARVARD'S PRESIDENT IS BACK IN THE HOT SEAT FIRST REPORTED BY THE STUDENT NEWSPAPER, REQUESTING THREE CORRECTIONS TO A DISSERTATION FROM 1997 LESS THAN A WEEK AFTER THEY ANNOUNCED CORRECTIONS TO OTHER ARTICLES THAT SHE PUBLISHED. IN A STATEMENT, THEY SAID THEY REVIEWED MORE OF HER ACADEMIC WORK TO CORRECT INSTANCES OF " INADEQUATE CITATION." >> IT MAKES MY BLOOD BOIL. I'VE NEVER HEARD OF A SITUATION WHERE YOU ARE SUPPOSED TO GO BACK AND MAKE CORRECTIONS. >> THEY FOUND TWO PASSAGES IN THE WRITING AND SAID THAT THEY WERE PLAGIARIZED. >> THEY SHOULD BE DISMISSED OR SHOULD RESIGN. SHE'S BEEN CAUGHT RED HANDED GIVEN THAT THIS IS APPEARING TO BE REPEATED. >> IT'S ELITISM. SOMETHG ABOUT THAT. THEY HAVE NOT RESPONDED TO REQUESTS FOR COMMENT. SHE SAYS THAT SHE STANDS BY THE INTEGRITY OF HER SCHOLARSHIP. THIS DEVELOPMENT CROSSES A HOUSE COMMITTEE OVER ANTI- SEMITISM.

THE EDUCATION AND WORKFORCE COMMITTEE REPRESENTED BY FOX, DEMANDING MORE INFORMATION ABOUT THE HONOR CODE, ADDING THAT AN ALLEGATION OF PLAGIARISM WOULD BE REASON FOR CONCERN AND THAT HARVARD IS NOT JUST ANY UNIVERSITY IN STYLES ITSELF AS ONE OF THE TOP EDUCATIONAL INSTITUTIONS IN THE COUNTRY. >> AND NOW, FROM CHICAGO. JUST LAST WEEK, HARVARD WAS TAKING STEPS TO MOVE PAST THIS. COULD THIS CHANGE ANYTHING? >> LIKELY, IT WILL AND IT'S BEEN A TUMULTUOUS FEW MONTHS.

THE NEARLY $5000 HOME IS LISTED FOR $6.7 MILLION. >>> NOW, POWER AND POLITICS AND THE WORRY FOR PRESIDENT BIDEN'S RE-ELECTION. A GROUP OF STRATEGISTS WARNING THE ASSOCIATED PRESS, WITH OTHER CHALLENGES. JOINING ME NOW FOR PERSPECTIVE ON THIS CRITICAL MOMENT, ALICIA CRASHED. THANKS FOR JOINING US. LET'S START BROADLY WITH THIS, DESCRIBED AS SOMETHING THAT WAS CONDUCTED AND THE PEOPLE RESPONSIBLE, IN PART, FLIPPED BLUE LAST TIME. THEY HELPED TO CONSOLIDATE AND HE PROBABLY WOULD NOT HAVE BEEN CANDIDATE WITHOUT THEM BUT THE ELECTION, HISTORICALLY BROUGHT SUPPORT AND A RECENT POLL INDICATED HE WAS DOWN IS MUCH AS 18% FROM THAT ELECTION. DOES THAT WORRY YOU? DO YOU THINK THAT BIDEN AND HIS TEAM NEED TO TAKE A LOOK AT HOW THEY ARE REACHING OUT AND COMMUNICATING? >> ABSOLUTELY. IT'S DEFINITELY SOMETHING THE CAMPAIGN HAS A KEEN EYE AND FOCUS ON. IT'S NOT ONLY IMPORTANT TO BIDEN AND HIS ADMINISTRATION AND CAMPAIGN THAT ACCORDING TO THE DEMOCRATIC PARTY, BROADLY. THIS IS BEEN THE SOLE VOTE. WE ARE TALKING 97% OF BLACK VOTERS WHO VOTE FOR DEMOCRATS. JOE BIDEN CANNOT AFFORD TO LOSE BLACK VOTERS. WE KNOW THAT. THAT SAVED HIM IN THE PRIMARY. IT SAVED 10 IN SOUTH CAROLINA, WHEN EVERYONE BASICALLY THOUGHT HE WAS OUT FOR DEAD. AT THIS POINT, A LOT OF THE VOTE HAS BEEN DENIED. WE ARE SEEING CHALLENGES AT THE POLLS, VOTING RIGHTS ARE BEING RESTRICTED, WE ARE SEEING BLACK PEOPLE NOT NECESSARILY FEEL A STRONG ECONOMY. WE ARE SEEING BLACK PEOPLE SAY HEY, WHAT ARE THE POLICIES THAT ARE GOING TO MAKE CHANGES IN MY COMMUNITY? WE VOTE FOR YOU, WHAT ARE YOU GOING TO DO FOR US? WAS A REAL QUESTIONS AND THINGS THE BIDEN ADMINISTRATION NEEDS TO ANSWER. IN ADDITION, NAILING HOME THE POLICY HE HAS WORKED TOWARD. >> SO ONE OF THE CO-AUTHORS OF THE REPORT, CHAIRWOMAN BARNES, HAD A MESSAGE THAT RESONATED AND SAID "WE MADE IT PART OF A BROADER MESSAGE ABOUT RIGHTS AND FREEDOM. WE HAVE NOT SEEN BIDEN LAYOUT IS FOR SECOND TERM AGENDA." THERE IS TIME FOR MORE TO COME TO THE FOREFRONT BUT WHAT SHOULD HIS AGENDA INCLUDE? >> BLACK WOMEN MATERNAL MORTALITY RATES OF THE HIGHEST IN THIS COUNTRY AND ARE THE EQUIVALENT OF THE DEVELOPING WORLD AND THAT'S FRIGHTENING. IT'S A NEAR DEATH SENTENCE TO BE BLACK AND PREGNANT IN AMERICA BUT THE BIDEN ADMINISTRATION SPECIFICALLY NEEDS TO PUT A KEEN EYE TOWARD REPRODUCTIVE RIGHTS AND SUSTAINING PREGNANT BLACK MOTHERS. AGAIN, I THINK THAT GOES BACK TO ECONOMIC ISSUES. BLACK PEOPLE, AT THE INTERSECTION OF RACE AND POVERTY, ARE HAVING A HARD TIME BITING INTO WHAT THE AMERICAN DREAM IS SUPPOSED TO HOLD. WE HAVE LESS BLACK AMERICANS OWNING HOMES TODAY THAN AT THE HEIGHT OF THE CIVIL RIGHTS MOVEMENT. IT'S FRUSTRATING TO WATCH, WHERE AMERICA IS BASICALLY IN A REGRESSION WITH CIVIL RIGHTS, WHEN IT COMES TO THINGS THAT MAKE BLACK AMERICANS FULL AMERICANS AND WE ARE NOT SEEING THAT ANYTHING THAT THE BIDEN ADMINISTRATION HAS A TOUGH ROAD AHEAD IF THEY DO NOT COORDINATE POLICY AND STRATEGY TO BLACK PEOPLE ABOUT HOW WE ARE GOING TO WORK AND IT'S WHAT THEY ARE TRYING TO TAKE AMERICA BACK TO. >> WE WILL KEEP AN EYE ON THIS AND WILL HAVE YOU BACK TO KEEP US UPDATED. JOHN SEVEN. WE APPRECIATE YOUR TIME AND INSIGHT. >>> ELECTION CHAOS. THE PRESIDENTIAL ELECTION IN THE DEMOCRATIC REPUBLIC OF THE CONGO MARRED BY VIOLENCE >>> WE ARE BACK WITH A LOOK AT A KEY ELECTION IN THE DEMOCRATIC REPUBLIC OF THE CONGO , AGAINST 18 OPPONENTS DESPITE FIGHTING IN THE EAST, PROMISING FAIR AND FREE ELECTIONS BUT SO FAR, VIOLENCE AND MISINFORMATION HAVE CAUSED SERIOUS DELAYS. CHAOS IN THE DEMOCRATIC REPUBLIC OF THE CONGO IS THE COUNTRY'S DEMOCRACY FACES A CRITICAL TEST. THE NATION DECIDING BETWEEN THE INCUMBENT PRESIDENT AND EIGHT TEEN OPPOSITION CHALLENGERS IN A HIGH-STAKES ELECTION WITH VOTING EXTENDED BECAUSE OF VIOLENCE, PROTEST, AND MASSIVE DELAYS. SAYING HE WAITED SIX HOURS TO CAST A BALLOT. ANOTHER PERSON SAID THAT THEY ARE HIDING SOMETHING FROM US, AFTER NOT BEING ABLE TO FIND HIS NAME AT A POLLING CENTER. LASTLY, LIVE ROUNDS FIRED DURING A RALLY BY ONE OF THE MAIN OPPOSITION CANDIDATES, CAUSING HIM TO TEMPORARILY SUSPEND HIS CAMPAIGN. THE DRC IS THE LARGEST COUNTRY IN SUB-SAHARAN AFRICA, ABOUT THE SIZE OF WESTERN EUROPE AND HOME TO 96 MILLION PEOPLE AND ONE OF THE TOP SUPPLIERS OF COPPER. >> IT'S A GIANT AT THE CENTER OF AFRICA AND THE REST OF THE WORLD CANNOT AFFORD TO IGNORE THIS COUNTRY, TO MAKE THE TRANSITION TO A GREEN ECONOMY, THE WORLD NEEDS MINERALS IN GREAT SUPPLY WHICH MEANS THAT EVERYONE HAS A STAKE IN WHAT'S GOING ON AND ITS GOVERNANCE, AND STABILITY. >> THE POPULATION LIVES ON JUST OVER TWO DOLLARS A DAY WITH 26 MILLION PEOPLE FACING FOOD INSECURITY. 44 MILLION PEOPLE WERE ELIGIBLE TO CAST VOTES. VIOLENCE IN THE EAST HAS GONE ON FOR DECADES AND DISPLACED 1 MILLION. VOTERS IN ONE TOWN COULD NOT VOTE BACK HOME AND EXPRESSED THEIR ANGER BY ATTACKING A POLLING STATION IN A DIFFERENT CITY. DESTROYING VOTINMACHINES. THE INCUMBENT WAS VOTED INTO POWER IN 2018, MARKING THE FIRST PEACEFUL TRANSFER OF POWER SINCE INDEPENDENCE FROM BELGIUM IN 1960. HIS FINAL CAMPAIGN RALLIED ON MONDAY, RAISING EYEBROWS FROM THE INTERNATIONAL COMMUNITY. HIS MAIN OPPONENTS, THE MAN WHO RAN IN 2018 AND IS CLAIMED THAT THAT ELECTION WAS RIGGED AFTER THEY DISMISSED A LEGAL CHALLENGE AND A WEALTHY BUSINESSMAN AND FORMER GOVERNO , SPOKESPERSON FOR HIS CAMPAIGN, FATALLY SHOT IN JULY AND WHAT HIS OPPOSITION PARTY CALLED AN ASSASSINATION. THE MOVE TO EXTEND, WITH INDEPENDENT OBSERVERS WITH SUCH AN EXTENSION THAT COULD THREATEN CONFIDENCE IN THE ELECTION RESULTS. >> THEY HAD A RECENT HISTORY OF ELECTORAL MANIPULATION. I ANTICIPATE THAT THERE WILL BE PROBABLY SOME INCIDENTS OF POLITICAL VIOLENCE IN ANY POSTELECTION SCENARIO. >> A POLL PUBLISHED EARLIER THIS WEEK BY RESEARCH ORGANIZATION SHOWED THE INCUMBENT PRESIDENT WITH SUPPORT. YEAR. CHRIS, THANK YOU SO MUCH. WE APPRECIATE IT. THANK YOU AT HOME FOR WATCHING TOP STORY. FOR TOM LLAMAS, I'M ELLISON BARBER IN NEW
