DEAF. AND HE SAID, A DOG THAT WAS BORN JUST LIKE ME. >> SEVEN YEARS LATER, COLE HAS BECOME A WORLD FAMOUS ADVOCATE FOR FOLKS BORN WITH ALL KINDS OF ABILITIES. AS ALL YEAR, CHRIS AND COLE VISIT SCHOOLS AROUND THE COUNTRY. >> I’M GOING AS CRAZY AND AS A CERTIFIED THERAPY DOG, COLE

ROUTINELY VISITS THEIR LOCAL VETERAN’S HOME. >> IN FACT, THIS PAST FALL, COLE WAS EVEN HONORED AS THE ASPCA NATIONAL DOG OF THE YEAR FOR A LIFETIME OF TEACHING MILLIONS OF PEOPLE THEIR MOTTO, QUOTE, A DISABILITY ISN’T AN INABILITY. IT’S A SUPERPOWER. >> SURE, THIS IS SOMETHING SO UNIQUE AND SO POWERFUL FOR THESE

CHILDREN THAT THEY THEY HAVE A HERO, THAT THEY’RE THEY’RE LEARNING TO BELIEVE IN. >> ALSO, MY FAVORITE FACT GUYS THAT VETERANS HOME THAT LOVES COLE SO MUCH, THEY EVEN PETITIONED THE STATE OF NEW JERSEY TO MAKE COLE THEIR OFFICIAL MILITARY MASCOT. WE’D SIGN THAT WE WOULD, YES, HAVE A GREAT

Whenever Wherever news breaks, it’s so important to always remember that lives are changed here in London in Buffalo >> WHENEVER WHEREVER HE WAS BREAKS, IT’S SO IMPORTANT TO ALWAYS REMEMBER THAT LIVES ARE CHANGED HERE IN LONDON, IN BUFFALO, EVOLVED IN TEXAS, EDINBURGH, SCOTLAND, FROM POLAND ONCE AGAIN TONIGHT.

STREAM IN THE SUN LOVELY PLACE ON AMERICA’S MOST OPEN STREAMS PROGRAM ON ABC NEWS LIVE STREAMING FREE RIGHT NOW WHEREVER IT STREAMS FROM. IT’S WEDNESDAY, JANUARY 24TH AND HE’S TWO FOR TWO. >> WE START HERE. THIS IS A GREAT, GREAT STATE. DONALD TRUMP WINS THE NEW HAMPSHIRE PRIMARY AND WITH IT,

PERHAPS THE REPUBLICAN NOMINATION. BUT DON’T TELL THAT TO NIKKI HALEY. NEW HAMPSHIRE IS FIRST IN THE NATION. IT IS NOT THE LAST. TAKE NOTHING FOR GRANITE TODAY. WE’LL WALK YOU THROUGH THE VOTES. THE VOTERS, NOBODY THAT I KNOW WANTS TO SEE A BIDEN TRUMP MATCHUP AND WHETHER THE CANDIDATES HAVE ALREADY

MOVED INTO A GENERAL ELECTION CAMPAIGN. >> ABC NEWS. THIS IS A SPECIAL EDITION OF START HERE. I’M BRAD MIELKE TAKE BALLOT OVER HERE, PLEASE. AT THE BEGINNING OF PRIMARY DAY ,ANYTHING’S POSSIBLE. HOW’S IT GOING SO FAR, SMITH? YEAH. GOOD. SO FAR, SO GOOD. YESTERDAY, AS POLLS OPENED

IN NEW HAMPSHIRE, WE STARTED OUR DAY IN BEDFORD, A TRADITIONAL REPUBLICAN STRONGHOLD. >> EVERYONE WAS IN HIGH SPIRITS. NO MATTER WHO YOU VOTED FOR, FIRST TIME VOTERS. >> WELL, THE IOWA CAUCUSES ARE TECHNICALLY A STRAW POLL AMONG A RELATIVELY SMALL SLICE OF THE POPULATION. THIS IS THE FIRST REAL VOTE OF

THE ELECTION SEASON. REPUBLICANS, DEMOCRATS, UNDECLARED VOTERS, THEY CAN ALL SHOW UP AND CAST THEIR BALLOT. >> IT IS THE BUSIEST I’VE EVER SEEN IT. IS THAT RIGHT? YEAH. MOST PEOPLE ARE SAYING I’LL BE IN THE LAST TWO ELECTIONS COMBINED. AND AS THE DAY WENT ON, YOU COULD FEEL THE RATCHETING UP.

>> CAN I ASK WHO YOU VOTED FOR? IT’S MY RIGHT TO GIVE AWAY DONALD TRUMP. >> I’VE BEEN FOR NIKKI FOR QUITE A WHILE. >> HOPEFULLY THEY’RE ALL RIDING IN JOE BIDEN. OUTSIDE PRECINCTS LIKE THESE, THERE ARE VOLUNTEERS STANDING WITH SIGNS EXPRESSING SUPPORT. EVER SINCE SHE TURNED HER BACK

ON PRESIDENT TRUMP, SHE LOST ALL CONFIDENCE FROM HER TALKS ABOUT DRAINING THE SWAMP. >> HE’S GOT THE WHOLE SWAMP BEHIND THEM. CANDIDATES THEMSELVES EVEN STOPPED BY AMPED THEM UP. GOOD LUCK TO YOU. THANK YOU FOR COMING OUT. YEAH, MY FRIENDS. >> BUT AS THE POLLS CLOSED,

AS THEY TURNED INTO NIGHT, DO YOU WANT TO ANNOUNCE THAT ABC NEWS CAN PROJECT THAT DONALD TRUMP WILL WIN THE NEW HAMPSHIRE PRIMARY? A SENSE OF INEVITABILITY BEGAN TO CREEP IN. NO UPSETS, NO MIRACLES. WITHIN MINUTES OF POLLS CLOSING, NIKKI HALEY CAME ON STAGE AND CONCORD, NEW HAMPSHIRE.

>> I WANT TO CONGRATULATE DONALD TRUMP ON HIS VICTORY TONIGHT AND ADMITTED TO HER SUPPORTERS THAT DONALD TRUMP HAD WON THE STATE. NEW HAMPSHIRE IS FIRST IN THE NATION. IT IS NOT THE LAST PLACE. >> AND YET IN WHAT MIGHT BE THE BIGGEST SURPRISE OF THE NIGHT, HALEY SAID SHE’S STILL NOT

BOWING OUT OF THIS RACE. SO WHAT I WANT TO KNOW TODAY IS WHETHER THIS TRULY IS STILL A TWO PERSON RACE OR WHETHER IT’S OVER, BECAUSE EITHER SCENARIO’S GOT BIG CONSEQUENCES FOR THE FALL. >> OKAY. SO IT IS LATE AT NIGHT HERE IN MANCHESTER, NEW HAMPSHIRE. WE’VE JUST WRAPPED UP A PRIMARY

NIGHT COVERAGE AND I’VE GOT THE PERSON WHO’S BEEN LIKE SIMULTANEOUSLY COVERING BOTH OF THESE CANDIDATES OVER THIS LAST WEEK. >> ABC’S RACHEL SCOTT RACHEL, IT WASN’T JUST WHO WON THAT SEEMED IMPORTANT. RIGHT. >> IT ALSO SEEMED BY HOW MUCH. WHAT ARE THE NUMBERS TELLING YOU? YEAH. NO SURPRISE.

AND NO UPSET FOR NIKKI HALEY. LOOK, BEST CASE SCENARIO, SHE WANTED TO COME OUT HERE IN NEW HAMPSHIRE WITH THIS SORT OF LANDSLIDE VICTORY THAT HER TEAM WAS PROMISING WEEKS AGO. BUT AS WE GOT CLOSER TO THE PRIMARY, REALITY STARTED TO SINK IN. AND THEY WERE JUST HOPING TO GET WITHIN STRIKING DISTANCE

OF THE FORMER PRESIDENT WHILE THAT WOULD BE MAYBE FOUR OR FIVE POINTS. WE’RE NOT REALLY SEEING THAT AT THIS POINT. LEAST TEN POINTS DIFFERENCE BETWEEN DONALD TRUMP AND NIKKI HALEY. THIS IS NOT WHAT HER TEAM WANTED HERE. AND REALLY, THEY WERE RELYING HEAVILY ON THE INDEPENDENT VOTE IN THIS STATE,

FAR DIFFERENT THAN THE IOWA ELECTORATE WHERE SHE GOT A THIRD PLACE FINISH. I AM VERY WORRIED ABOUT THE COUNTRY. >> I’M NOT ENTIRELY SURE NIKKI HALEY HAS ALL THE ANSWERS. BUT, YOU KNOW, AGAIN, IT WAS REALLY MORE OF A VOTE AGAINST TRUMP. USUALLY I’M A DEMOCRAT, BUT YEAH, JUST NOT VERY HAPPY

WITH JOE BIDEN NOT BEING HERE AND YET WANTED TO SUPPORT ANYONE BUT JOE BIDEN AND DONALD TRUMP. >> SHE KNEW THAT INDEPENDENTS IN THIS STATE WERE REALLY NOT THAT KEEN ON JOE BIDEN, REALLY NOT THAT KEEN ON DONALD TRUMP. >> AND THAT’S THE ARGUMENT THAT SHE’S BEEN MAKING OUT ON THE CAMPAIGN TRAIL,

THAT SHE’S THE VESSEL TURNER TO BOTH OF THEM THIS NOVEMBER. >> SHE CAN’T SAY THAT PEOPLE DIDN’T SHOW UP. >> RIGHT. LIKE NOT TURNOUT NUMBERS SEEM BIG, BRIGHT WHEN I TELL YOU THAT I WAS AT A POLLING LOCATION AT 6:30 A.M., 30 MINUTES BEFORE THE POLLS, EVEN OPEN, AND THERE WERE LINES

SNAKING AROUND THE BUILDING OF PEOPLE WAITING TO GET IN. YOU REALLY GOT THE SENSE, TALKING TO VOTERS THAT KNEW THIS WAS CONSEQUENTIAL. >> WE’VE GOT TO START CHOOSING PEOPLE WHO THINK RATIONALLY AND NOT ABOUT OURSELVES AS JUST UNIT. WE ARE PART OF A WHOLE WORLD. BECAUSE TYPICALLY, RIGHT IN

THE NEW HAMPSHIRE, YOU GOT A BUNCH OF CANDIDATES ON THE BALLOT, YOU GOT A LOT OF PEOPLE TO CHOOSE FROM. WELL, THIS ALL CAME DOWN TO A TWO-PERSON RACE WITH JUST TO GO . AND SO A LOT OF THESE VOTERS TOOK THIS VERY SERIOUSLY. THEY KNEW WHATEVER THEY DECIDED

IN THIS NEW HAMPSHIRE PRIMARY WOULD HAVE SIGNIFICANT CONSEQUENCES ON THE OUTCOME, NOT ONLY OF THIS PRIMARY, BUT ALSO THE GENERAL ELECTION. >> TOO OPTIMISTIC, OPTIMISTIC, OPTIMISTIC THAT’S JUST JUST FOR. RIGHT. THIS IS WHAT WE’RE DOING NOW. >> WE’RE ALL SHOWING UP AND BRAD MIELKE THERE WAS SUCH AN EAGERNESS TO GET OUT

AND VOTE THAT IN SOME TOWNS AND CITIES THEY STARTED RUNNING OUT OF REPUBLICAN PRIMARY BALLOTS. >> THEY HAD TO MAKE LAST MINUTE REQUESTS FOR MORE BALLOTS JUST SO PEOPLE COULD VOTE. >> OKAY. AND SO THEN SHE STILL LOSES BY WHAT WE’RE SEEING RIGHT NOW IS LIKE, WHAT, TEN, ALMOST 11 POINTS?

WHAT WAS THE REACTION FROM FROM EACH OF THE CANDIDATES AS THE RACE WAS PROJECTED? YEAH. SO HALEY STARTS TO SEE THE WRITING ON THE WALL. SHE COMES OUT PRETTY QUICKLY HERE. >> THEY THINK AND SHE SAYS, LOOK, THIS RACE IS FAR FROM OVER. DUM DUM, DUM. I’M NOT DROPPING OUT.

AND THAT’S REALLY WHAT EVERYBODY WAS SORT OF WAITING FOR, RIGHT? HERE’S THE MOMENT. SHE THOUGHT SHE WAS GOING TO WIN BIG HERE. SHE DIDN’T. IS SHE GOING TO END HER CAMPAIGN AND ENDORSE DONALD TRUMP? THAT DIDN’T HAPPEN AT ALL. IN FACT, NIKKI HALEY SAID THE EXACT. SOUTH CAROLINA VOTERS DON’T

WANT A CORONATION. THEY WANT AN ELECTION. SHE WAS LIKE, LOOK, SEE YOU IN SOUTH CAROLINA. I’M STAYING IN THE RACE. AND IN FACT, I’M CHALLENGING YOU TO GET ON THE DEBATE STAGE AND GO ONE ON ONE WITH ME. >> GO HEAD TO HEAD. YEAH, AND FAR FROM ENDORSING

HIM, IT DID SEEM LIKE SHE WAS COMING OUT HARDER AGAINST HIM THAN EVEN ON THE CAMPAIGN TRAIL THIS FAR. >> YEAH. AND SHE’S REALLY HAD TO WALK THIS FINE LINE. RIGHT. ALL OF THESE REPUBLICAN CANDIDATES HAVE DURING THE PROCESS OF THIS REPUBLICAN PRIMARY, BECAUSE THEY DON’T WANT TO TURN OFF

THE VOTERS THAT THEY NEED TO PEEL AWAY IN ORDER TO CLINCH THE NOMINATION. BUT THEY ALSO, AT SOME POINT NEED TO DRAW SOME SORT OF CONTRAST WITH TRUMP THE OTHER DAY. DONALD TRUMP ACCUSED ME OF NOT PROVIDING SECURITY AT THE CAPITOL ON JANUARY 6. NOW KNOW I’VE LONG CALLED FOR

A MENTAL COMPETENCY TEST FOR POLITICIANS OVER THE AGE OF 75. AND SO THAT HAS PROVED REALLY DIFFICULT FOR NIKKI HALEY. AND SHE’S NOW STARTING TO RAMP UP HER ATTACKS ON THE FORMER PRESIDENT. >> BUT IT MIGHT JUST BE TOO LITTLE, TOO LATE. WHAT WAS TRUMP’S REACTION?

>> I GUESS HE COMES OUT NEXT AND YOU’RE THERE IN THE ROOM WITH HIM. YEAH. SO, LOOK, TRUMP’S MINDSET HEADING INTO THIS WAS HE JUST WANTED A WIN. DIDN’T MATTER REALLY BY HOW MUCH. HE JUST WANTED THAT. W OKAY. AND THAT WAS REALLY BECAUSE HE WANTED TO SEND A MESSAGE

TO NIKKI HALEY THAT IT’S TIME TO GET OUT OF THE RACE, THAT I WANT AN IOWA, I WANT A NEW HAMPSHIRE. THIS IS MY NOMINATION. THIS IS A GREAT, GREAT STATE. YOU HAVE THE FORMER PRESIDENT. HE WAS CLEARLY WATCHING NIKKI HALEY ON THAT STAGE. LISTENING CLOSELY TO WHAT SHE WAS SAYING.

>> AND IT CLEAR HE WAS NOT HAPPY ABOUT IT. AND SHE WAS UP AND SAID, WOW, SHE’S DOING LIKE A SPEECH LIKE SHE WON. >> SHE DIDN’T WIN. >> SHE LOST. AND YES, HE TOOK A VICTORY LAP, BUT HE ALSO TOOK ON NIKKI HALEY VERY AGGRESSIVELY, PERSONALLY ANGRY WITH HER, PERSONALLY

UPSET THAT SHE DID NOT DROP OUT OF THIS RACE. BUT THE ONLY PERSON MORE ANGRY THAN, LET’S SAY ME, BUT I DON’T GET TOO ANGRY. >> I GUESS EVEN THE ONLY PERSON AND B, LIKE THE REST OF HIS FORMER RIVALS, HE HAD TIM SCOTT ON THAT STAGE. HE HAD VIVEK RAMASWAMY.

THESE ARE PEOPLE THAT WERE IN THE RACE. THEY DROPPED OUT. THEY ENDORSED HIM. THAT WAS THERE TO SEND A MESSAGE THAT NOW IT’S TIME FOR THE PARTY TO UNIFY. AND HE WAS REALLY UPSET THAT NIKKI HALEY JUST DIDN’T DO THAT. DID YOU GET A SENSE OF WHY

THAT THIS STATE AT THIS MOMENT IRKED HIM SO MUCH THAT SHE WASN’T JUST DROPPING OUT? >> LOOK, IN TRUMP’S MIND RIGHT NOW, THIS IS A GENERAL ELECTION MATCH UP. SO HE’S JUST READY TO GET THIS PRIMARY OVER WITH QUICKLY SO THAT THE PARTY CAN FOCUS ON FIGURING OUT WAYS THAT THEY

CAN DEFEAT JOE BIDEN. >> I’M QUOTING TRUMP NO MATTER WHAT. I, I DON’T KNOW IF I’M GOING TO VOTE IF HE DOESN’T MAKE IT. ONE THING THAT I FOUND PARTICULARLY INTERESTING IS THAT BY EXIT POLLS, TRUMP DOES REALLY WELL ON THE ISSUES IN THE STATE. VOTERS LIKE WHAT HE HAS TO SAY

AND REPUBLICANS LIKE HIS STANCE ON IMMIGRATION. THEY LIKE HIS STANCE ON THE ECONOMY FAR MORE THAN THEY LIKE NIKKI HALEY STANCE ON THOSE ISSUES. >> AND JUST A LITTLE NOTE TO NIKKI. >> SHE’S NOT GOING TO WIN. CHUCK TODD. BUT IF SHE DID, SHE WOULD BE UNDER INVESTIGATION BY THOSE

PEOPLE IN 15 MINUTES. >> BUT SHE DIDN’T TALK ABOUT ANY POLICY DURING THAT SPEECH. IT WAS ALL GRIEVANCE WAS ALL ATTACKS AGAINST NIKKI HALEY, A LOT OF AIRING OF FRUSTRATIONS. >> SO THEN, OKAY, WHAT HAPPENS NOW? LIKE LATER THIS MORNING, THEY BOTH GO TO SOUTH CAROLINA. >> WHAT’S THE DEAL?

WELL, NIKKI HALEY IS GOING TO SOUTH CAROLINA. >> TRUMP GOD KNOWS WHAT HE’S GOING TO SAY TOMORROW, AND YOU JUST DON’T KNOW WHAT’S GOING TO HAPPEN. AND SO SHE’S THERE AND IF HE STUMBLES, SHE’S THERE. AND HER TEAM REALLY SEES THE NEXT FEW WEEKS AS ABSOLUTELY CRITICAL.

THEY HAVE JUST ABOUT A MONTH TO TRY TO GAIN ENOUGH MOMENTUM TO ACTUALLY BEAT TRUMP. >> IT’S BEEN TEN YEARS SINCE SHE’S ACTUALLY RUN IN SOUTH CAROLINA. SO COMING UP NEXT, WE’LL TALK ABOUT HOW SHE DOES THAT, WHETHER SHE’S GOT A CHANCE OR WHETHER THIS IS OVER. >> RACHEL SCOTT.

THANK YOU SO MUCH. THANKS, BRAD. ACTUALLY, I’M SURE WHEN RACHEL SLEEPS. ALL RIGHT. WHEN WE COME BACK, HALEY SAYS SHE’S GOING TO SOUTH CAROLINA. IS SHE GOING TO WIN SOUTH CAROLINA OR ANYWHERE, FOR THAT MATTER? EXAMINING WHAT COMES NEXT AFTER THE BREAK. >> YOU. >> WITH SO MUCH AT STAKE, SO

THIS IS A HUMAN SKULL. WE WERE DEFINITELY AGAINST THE CLOCK. HOW MANY MORE VICTIMS ARE OUT THERE? FOR TRYING THEM ON MOUNTAIN M.D.? WHOSE HOME ARE YOU READY? LET’S DO IT. YES. IT’S THE SHOW. AMERICA WANTS AND AMERICA NEEDS RIGHT NOW. THIS IS. WHAT WOULD YOU DO? LET’S GO.

HOW ARE YOU GUYS? SO WHAT WILL YOU BE WATCHING SATURDAY IS ON ABC NEWS LIVE. WHAT WOULD YOU DO? I GUESS I JUST FOUND OUT. WHAT WOULD YOU DO? MARATHON 2 TO 6 EASTERN EVERY SATURDAY ON ABC NEWS. >> MY FAVORITE NOW. BABE RUTH. HANK AARON SHOHEI OHTANI,

LEGENDS OF THE GAME. BUT NOW THE LIST OF GREATS REDEFINED FROM ABC NEWS RECLAIM THE FORGOTTEN LEAD SIDE OF THE STORY OF BASEBALL. YOU HAVE NEVER HEARD BEFORE LIKE THIS. THE AWARD WINNING PODCAST IS BACK. LISTEN, WHEREVER YOU GET YOUR PODCASTS OR SCAN THE QR CODE, YOU SEE HERE, YOU.

>> OKAY, SO WE JUST TALK TO RACHEL SCOTT, WHO HAS BEEN ON THE GROUND IN THE ROOMS WITH THE CANDIDATES. >> I WANT TO TURN TO ABC’S POLITICAL DIRECTOR RICK KLEIN, WHO WAS MANNING THE BIG BOARD ON OUR LIVE COVERAGE. >> HE’S BEEN WATCHING THESE VOTES COMING IN TOWN BY TOWN

AND TRANSLATING THEM INTO THE BROADER TREND WE SHOULD BE WATCHING OUT FOR. AND RICK, MY FIRST QUESTION IS, IS THIS OVER? LIKE STICK A FORK IN IT, DROP THE BALLOON, START PRINTING OUT THE BALLOTS FOR NOVEMBER. THERE’S GOING TO BE A TRUMP BIDEN REMATCH. >> IT’S DONE. LOOK, I’VE BEEN LOOKING FOR

WAYS THAT NIKKI HALEY WIN THIS AND YOU CAN FIND IT, BUT, MAN, YOU HAVE TO SQUINT. THE AREAS, THE STATE OF NEW HAMPSHIRE AND EVEN IOWA, WHERE SHE DID PRETTY WELL, SUBURBAN VOTERS AND FEMALE VOTERS, MODERATE INDEPENDENT VOTERS. YOU CAN LOOK HOW SHE SEES THE SHARE OF THE ELECTORATE EVEN IN NEW HAMPSHIRE.

THEN YOU CAN LOOK FORWARD A BIT AND SAY, WOW, NEXT BIG CONTEST ON EVERYONE’S RADAR SCREEN IS HER HOME STATE OF SOUTH CAROLINA. BUT IF YOU LOOK A LITTLE BIT DEEPER, YOU REALIZE THAT ACTUALLY BEFORE THAT IS THE NEVADA CAUCUSES. SHE’S NOT EVEN ON THE BALLOT ON THOSE CONTESTS.

AND THEN IN SOUTH CAROLINA, ALTHOUGH OUR FIVETHIRTYEIGHT POLLING AVERAGE HAS HER DOWN LIKE 35 POINTS, YOU’RE STILL LOOKING AT SUPER TUESDAY, WHERE TRUMP’S NATIONAL EDGE IS JUST ENORMOUS. SO IT IS A DAUNTING CHALLENGE. IT’S REALLY HARD TO SEE HOW NIKKI HALEY CAN PULL IT OUT AND NO ONE HAS EVER WON IOWA

AND NEW HAMPSHIRE AND NOT GONE ON TO WIN THE NOMINATION. IT DOESN’T LOOK LIKE NIKKI HALEY IS WELL POSITIONED RIGHT NOW TO BE THE ONE WHEN IT COMES TO SOUTH CAROLINA. >> LOOK, SHE CAN’T JUST FINISH SECOND IN A BUNCH OF STATES, RIGHT? THERE’S ONLY TWO CANDIDATES FINISHING SECOND.

IT’S NOT A GREAT PLACE. THAT’S NOT AWESOME. IS THERE A STATE WHERE SHE WINS? >> LIKE NEW HAMPSHIRE WAS SUPPOSED TO BE THE MOST FORGIVING STATE AND, YOU KNOW, SHE LOST IT. >> SHE’S GOT A BRONZE MEDAL IN IOWA, A SILVER IN NEW HAMPSHIRE. SHE ADDS TO IT, I THINK FUNCTIONALLY, SOUTH CAROLINA,

SHE CAN CONVINCE HER DONORS THAT THAT SHE CAN GO ON. BUT THERE’S ANOTHER STRATEGY THAT’S STARTING TO EMERGE THAT IS BASICALLY, LOOK, DONALD TRUMP IS SO FLAWED WITH SO MANY PROBLEMS, SO MANY DISTRACTIONS, THAT THERE’S SOMETHING TO BE SAID FOR JUST BEING IN THE GAME BECAUSE WHO KNOWS IF HE’LL IMPLODE.

WHO KNOWS IF THERE’LL BE A HEALTH ISSUE, CRIMINAL ISSUES THAT PUT HIM ESSENTIALLY BEHIND CONVENTION. YOU GET TO THE >> IT’S KIND OF A WILD STRATEGY. >> BUT THEN AGAIN, MORE LIKE JUST LIKE JUST TO BE THE CLEAR ALTERNATIVE. >> THERE’S ONE ALTERNATIVE, AND IT’S NIKKI HALEY, THE BRIT

CLASS ALTERNATIVE, AND OF COURSE, IF YOU REALLY GOT TO THAT SITUATION, THERE’S OTHER THERE’S OTHER GREAT CLASS SCENARIOS. BUT I HEARD THIS FROM DESANTIS PEOPLE IN THE DAYS BEFORE HE OUT THAT HE’S WORTH STAYING IN JUST IN CASE THINGS TRULY GO SOUTH FOR DONALD TRUMP. AND THERE WILL BE SOME PRESSURE

FROM PEOPLE THAT REALLY WANT A TRUMP ALTERNATIVE FOR NIKKI HALEY TO STICK IT OUT, EVEN IF SHE’S NOT WINNING. >> THE QUESTION ULTIMATELY BECOMES WHAT HALEY WANTS OUT OF THIS, RIGHT? BECAUSE IF SHE’S LOOKING OUT THERE AND SAYING, I DON’T REALLY SEE A PATH I MAY GET, I MAY GET HUMILIATED THERE

IN MY HOME STATE OF SOUTH CAROLINA, THEN IT BECOMES THE THERE’S A COST TO STICKING STICKING AROUND AND, YOU KNOW, LOSING IS NOT A WAY TO WIN. AND DONALD TRUMP HAS ALREADY SIGNALED IT IS GOING TO BE A VICIOUS MONTH BEFORE SOUTH CAROLINA. >> HE’S ALREADY DROPPING HINTS

OF THE THINGS HE’S GOING TO SAY ABOUT HER, WHAT SOME OF HIS ASSOCIATES WILL DO. YOU KNOW, I TALKED TO A TRUMP AIDE IN DECEMBER WHO TALKED ABOUT THE PRIMARY ROAD AHEAD AND SAID, LOOK, DO NOT UNDERESTIMATE OUR ABILITY TO DO BASICALLY WHATEVER WE WANT TO WHOMEVER WE WANT,

HOWEVER WE WANT TO DO IT. THEY ARE WITH THE JUGGERNAUT THEY HAVE BUILT OF OF RUNNING A CAMPAIGN THAT THE LIKES OF WHICH WE RARELY SEE IN POLITICS. >> GREAT BRAND. I CALL IT PRETTY HIGHLY OVERRATED. SHE’S A VERY HIGHLY OVERRATED PERSON. >> A LOT OF WHAT HE SAYS IS IS

OVER THE LINE AGAINST HIS HIS OPPONENTS. AND THE UPSIDE IS YOU’RE PROBABLY NOT GOING TO WIN ANYWAY. NIKKI HALEY’S GOING TO HAVE TO LOOK IN THE MIRROR. BUT LOOK, AT LEAST FOR NOW, SHE SAYS THEY’RE ON TO THE NEXT ROUND OF STATES AND THEY WILL GET SOME ENCOURAGEMENT FROM WHAT’S LEFT OF

THE ANTI-TRUMP FORCES. >> IS THAT KIND OF THE LEGACY OF THIS TRUMP CAMPAIGN? RICK, JUST THE ABJECT SORT OF POLITICAL CRUELTY AGAINST THESE OTHER CANDIDATES? >> IS THAT WHY THEY’VE ALL BEEN DROPPING OUT SO EARLY? BECAUSE THEY KNOW THAT IF THEY HANDLE THIS THE WRONG WAY, THEIR FUTURE IN REPUBLICAN

POLITICS IS DONE. >> HE CAN SHRED THE REPUTATION OF ANYONE HE WANTS TO. ALSO, WE’VE ALSO SEEN JUST THE FRUSTRATION ALL THESE CANDIDATES HAVE ABOUT PEELING AWAY ANY OF HIS SUPPORT. >> I MEAN, YOU LOOK AT THE FIELD THAT FIRST EMERGED HERE. >> YOU HAD RON DESANTIS, THIS

RISING STAR HAD SUCCESSES IN A IN A REDDENING STATE. >> IT’S CLEAR TO ME THAT A MAJORITY OF REPUBLICAN PRIMARY VOTERS WANT TO GIVE DONALD TRUMP ANOTHER CHANCE. >> TIM SCOTT, THE ONLY BLACK REPUBLICAN SENATOR HIMSELF, IS THE INSPIRING STORY ON THE CAMPAIGN TRAIL. >> WE NEED A PRESIDENT WHO WILL

OUR SOUTHERN BORDER TO DO. WE NEED DONALD TRUMP. YOU HAD CHRIS CHRISTIE BRINGING THAT ANTI-TRUMP BANNER. >> YOU HAD VICE PRESIDENT PENCE, HIS OWN VP UP THERE. >> NONE OF THOSE GUYS MADE IT TO NEW HAMPSHIRE. THE ONLY PERSON STANDING IS NIKKI HALEY. SO THERE’S SOMETHING TO BE

SAID FOR THAT ACHIEVEMENT ALONE. BUT YEAH, IF NIKKI HALEY WANTS TO STICK THIS OUT, SHE’S GOING TO HAVE TO BUCKLE UP FOR A BRUTAL COUPLE OF WEEKS OF CAMPAIGNING. AT LEAST NOT SEVERAL MONTHS OF A LONG SLOG, PROBABLY SHE, ON TODAY’S FACTS, DOES NOT END IN HER WINNING WELL.

>> AND SO IF WHAT I’M HEARING IS LIKE, YOU KNOW, FOR ALL INTENTS AND PURPOSES, TRUMP IS THE PRESUMPTIVE NOMINEE, LIKE SOMETHING WOULD NEED TO ALMOST GET OUT OF THAT ROLE SOMEHOW. >> HOW IS HE POSITIONING HIMSELF, NATALIE? DOES HE START POSITIONING HIMSELF RIGHT NOW FOR THE GENERAL ELECTION?

>> AND WHAT DOES THAT LOOK LIKE? HE’S GOING TO BE TRUMP. I MEAN, LOOK, THIS IS NOT SOMEONE I THINK THAT YOU COULD SAY IS CAPABLE OF A PIVOT TO A GENERAL ELECTION. THERE’S TIMES WHERE HE’S TRIED TO DO THAT. >> HE’S TALKED ABOUT DOING THAT. YOU’VE BEEN HERE.

I JUST SEE IT LIKE TIM SCOTT IS LIKE ALMOST WEARING A SIGN AROUND HIS NECK THAT SAYS, LIKE, PICK ME FOR VICE PRESIDENT. I JUST WONDERING IF THAT’S ON TRUMP’S MIND. >> YEAH, THAT’S NOT THAT’S NOT GOING TO BE WHAT WE SEE OUT OF OUT OF DONALD TRUMP IS GOING

TO BE SOME KIND OF MODERATING. >> I THINK YOU’RE GOING TO SEE WHAT YOU ALWAYS SEE WITH HIM, WHICH IS HE’LL TRY OUT A LOT OF WILD THINGS. HE’S NOT GOING TO BACK DOWN. AND LOOK, HE HAS BUILT THIS CAMPAIGN AROUND HIMSELF. >> IF YOU WANT TO DEFEAT THE RADICAL LEFT DEMOCRATS

AND SAVE AMERICA, YOU MUST VOTE FOR YOUR FAVORITE PRESIDENT OF ALL TIME, DONALD J. >> TRUMP. THAT’S BEEN VENGEANCE FOR HIM AND HIS SUPPORTERS AROUND GRIEVANCE POLITICS AND AROUND FUNDAMENTALLY, THE FEELING THAT REPUBLICAN VOTERS WILL BUY INTO THE STRUGGLE THAT HE HAS TALKED ABOUT AS THEIR OWN. >> HOW IS BIDEN DEALING?

I CAN’T BELIEVE I’M ALREADY ASKING YOU THIS, BUT I MEAN, THIS IS THE REALITY. WHAT IS BIDEN DOING AS FAR AS A GENERAL ELECTION MATCH UP? >> OH, LOOK, HE IS NOW SAYING IT’S CLEAR THAT IT’S GOING TO BE TRUMP AND HE HAS POSITIONED HIMSELF FOR SOME TIME AGAINST THE MAGA MOVEMENT.

>> HE’S MADE CLEAR THAT HE RELISHES THAT FIGHT. TRUMP SAYS HE’S PROUD THAT HE OVERTURN ROE V. WADE. HE SAID, AND I QUOTE, THERE HAS TO BE PUNISHMENT FOR THE ONE THAT EXERCISING THE REPRODUCTIVE FREEDOM. HE DESCRIBES THE DECISION AS A MIRACLE. >> BUT FOR AMERICAN WOMEN, IT’S A NIGHTMARE.

BIDEN THIS WHOLE POLITICAL IDENTITY AS PRESIDENT HAS BEEN SHAPED AROUND THE REACTIONS TO TRUMP. AND THAT TEAM HAS BEEN PREPARING. EVEN IF IT WASN’T, TRUMP WAS THE NOMINEE. THEY WERE GOING TO SQUARE OFF AGAINST THE MAGA AGENDA. >> AS IT IS, THEY’RE PROBABLY GOING TO GET TRUMP. >> AND SO YOU’RE STARTING

TO SEE THEM POKE OUT A LITTLE BIT MORE, TALKING ABOUT THE THREATS TO DEMOCRACY, TALKING ABOUT ABORTION RIGHTS AND FREEDOMS, TRYING TO TOUT THEIR ACCOMPLISHMENTS. BUT THEY HAVE BEEN SLOW GOING. BUT THERE’S A TEAM THAT’S IN WILMINGTON THAT’S READY TO GO AGAINST DONALD TRUMP. LAST QUESTION, RICK. I’M WONDERING WHAT WHAT WE’VE

JUST SEEN MEANS FOR LIKE THE FUTURE ELECTIONS, BECAUSE LAST TIME I WAS HERE IN NEW HAMPSHIRE, IT WAS A VERY DYNAMIC DEMOCRATIC PRIMARY. >> RIGHT? EVERYONE, EVERYONE’S ENGAGED. EVERYONE AGREES THIS IS HOW WE DECIDE THE PROCESS. NOW, FOUR YEARS LATER, DESPITE A VERY DIFFERENT CAMPAIGN PROCESS, ONE PARTY DOESN’T EVEN

WANT TO BE HERE AND THE OTHER ONE JUST ELECTED THE SAME GUY IT ELECTED EIGHT YEARS AGO. IT LOOKS LIKE WE’RE GOING TO THE SAME MATCHUP, RIGHT? SO IF NOTHING HAS CHANGED, IF THE MODERATE POLITICIAN WHO FOCUSES ON RETAIL POLITICS CANNOT CARRY THE STATE, DOES IT MEAN THE OLD STYLE OF NEW

HAMPSHIRE CAMPAIGNING IS DONE? >> IT’S FINISHED. YOU KNOW, THIS IS A CONVERSATION I HAD A LOT WHEN I WAS IN NEW HAMPSHIRE IN THE RUN UP TO THE PRIMARY THIS YEAR BECAUSE I LOVE IT. I LOVE THE FEEL, THE VIBES, THE WAY PEOPLE IT. >> SERIOUSLY, I’M NOT READY

TO GIVE UP ON THE NEW HAMPSHIRE PRIMARY. >> I THINK THERE’S SOMETHING REALLY VALUABLE ABOUT THE CANDIDATES BEING OUT AMONG THE PEOPLE, MEETING THEM, HEARING THEIR CONCERNS, QUESTIONS. >> YOU BRING THIS TO A BIGGER STATE. YOU KNOW, CALIFORNIA OR NEW YORK OR SOMETHING LIKE THAT, AND YOU JUST CAN’T COVER

IT THE WAY YOU DO HERE. I THINK THIS MIGHT JUST BE A PHASE. THIS IS A WEIRD ELECTION THAT MAY TURN OUT TO BE ESSENTIALLY TO INCUMBENTS RUNNING AGAINST EACH OTHER. DONALD TRUMP IS BROKEN. SO MUCH OF WHAT WE WE KNOW ABOUT POLITICS, I THINK THERE WILL BE ANOTHER SIDE TO THIS

AND I THINK WHEN THE 2028 CAMPAIGN STARTS GOING THAT PEOPLE ARE GOING TO START GOING BACK TO NEW HAMPSHIRE AND IT’S HARD FOR ME TO IMAGINE THIS TRADITION. >> AND THERE WAS A SENSE THAT I HAD IN NEW HAMPSHIRE THAT FELT LIKE MAYBE MAYBE AN ERA WAS ENDING, BUT THINK IT’S PROBABLY

JUST STARTING A NEW CHAPTER. ALL RIGHT. REALLY INTERESTING STUFF. RIGHT? RICK KLEIN, OUR POLITICAL DIRECTOR, THANK YOU SO MUCH. THANKS, MARK. >> AND AS RICK DESCRIBED THAT, IT MADE ME THINK ABOUT HOW MANY WE SPOKE TO HERE WHO ARE AS PLUGGED IN AS ANYONE. >> YOU KNOW, TRUMP WON IOWA.

HE MAY WIN, BUT I DON’T THINK HE CAN WIN IN NOVEMBER. THIS IS A STATE WHERE PEOPLE OPENLY TALK POLITICS ACROSS THE DINING ROOM TABLE. THAT THIS WAS A HUSBAND AND WIFE. SHE HAD JUST VOTED FOR HALEY. HE HAD VOTED FOR TRUMP. I WAS FOR NIKKI TO BEGIN WITH.

YEAH BUT I CHANGED MY. OH, AND HOW DO YOU FEEL ABOUT THAT? HE CAN VOTE FOR WHOEVER HE WANTS. WHEN IT COMES TO THE ISSUES. THIS IS A STATE THAT IS SO UNIQUE IN SO MANY WAYS, RIGHT? IT’S GOT AN AGING POPULATION AND IT’S GOT A DISPROPORTIONATE NUMBER OF VETERANS.

SO MANY FAMILIES HERE HAVE BEEN RAVAGED BY THE OPIOID CRISIS. THEY WERE SOUNDING THE ALARM. BUT WHEN YOU ASK VOTERS THIS YEAR, WHAT THEY CARE ABOUT, THE THINGS THAT COULD REALLY DECIDE THEIR CHOICE. >> I MEAN, IMMIGRATION IS MY NUMBER ONE CONCERN FOR MYSELF IS THE ECONOMY IT’S MY CHILDREN, IT’S EDUCATION,

CORRUPTION IN GOVERNMENT. ABSOLUTELY HANDS DOWN. >> THESE ARE NATIONAL ISSUES. THESE ARE THE SAME ISSUES YOU’D HEAR ABOUT IN TEXAS OR CALIFORNIA, WHICH IS FINE. THEY AFFECT US ALL. BUT IT’S ONE MORE REASON THAT THE CONVERSATION HAS MOVED BEYOND THE TRADITIONAL PLAYBOOK ABOUT WINNING OVER POCKETS OF VOTERS, AND THAT HAS

PROFOUNDLY OCCASIONS FOR HOW CAMPAIGNS ARE WON. >> IOWA, WE LOVE YOU. YOU ARE GOING TO GO. YOU JUST GO OUT AND BUY LARGER TRACTORS AND MORE LAND. >> DON’T WORRY ABOUT IT. IOWA WAS DECIDED. CONSERVATIVES LIKE, ACCORDING TO EXIT POLLS, HALF OF CAUCUS GOERS DESCRIBE THEMSELVES AS VERY CONSERVATIVE.

ONLY 9% DESCRIBE THEMSELVES AS MODERATE. >> WELL, THERE ARE A LOT MODERATES IN THIS COUNTRY. A LOT OF THEM WANT TO VOTE FOR A REPUBLICAN PRESIDENT. AND NEW HAMPSHIRE, WHERE UNDECLARED VOTERS CAN PARTICIPATE. >> WE SAW A LOT MORE OF THEM. >> NO, NOBODY THAT I KNOW WANTS

TO SEE A BIDEN TRUMP MATCHUP. MANY MODERATES BROKE FOR HALEY. WOMEN TURNED OUT FOR HALEY. >> SHE IS THE PERSON WE NEED. OH, YEAH. YOUNG AND CONSERVATIVE. >> IT COULD BE ONE OF THE REASONS TRUMP SEEMS READY TO BE DONE WITH THIS WHOLE PRIMARY THING. AS STRONG AS HE’S BEEN RUNNING

IN REPUBLICAN CIRCLES. >> THIS BROADER ELECTORATE DID EXPOSE SOME WEAK SPOTS. SO, I MEAN, CANDIDLY, MY VOTE FOR HALEY IS A MIDDLE TO TRUMP. >> NEW HAMPSHIRE IS ONE OF THE WHITEST STATES IN THE NATION. IT’S ALSO ONE OF THE OLDEST. THERE ARE GOOD REASONS TO SAY,

YOU KNOW, LET’S GIVE OTHER STATES TRY. >> BUT EVERY FOUR YEARS, LIKE AN AGING PITCHER HEADING BACK TO THE MOUND, IT STILL HAS SOME LESSONS TO TEACH AND IT’S STILL GOT A FEW CURVE LEFT. >> IT’S A GREAT PLACE TO LIVE. THAT’S IT. THEN GO HOME. OKAY.

WE WILL FOLLOW THAT VOTER’S ADVICE. WE ARE PACKING UP. REALLY? YOU FOUND THIS PRIMARY COVERAGE USEFUL. ALWAYS CURIOUS TO HEAR WHAT YOU THINK AND IF YOU FOUND THESE EPISODES VALUABLE. HEY, LEAVE A FIVE STAR RATING AND REVIEW WHEREVER YOU LISTEN . MANY THANKS TO PRODUCERS, KELLY TEREZ AND JEN NEWMAN FOR

A TRADITIONAL REPUBLICAN STRONGHOLD. >> EVERYONE WAS IN HIGH SPIRITS. NO MATTER WHO YOU VOTED FOR, FIRST TIME VOTERS. >> WELL, THE IOWA CAUCUSES ARE TECHNICALLY A STRAW POLL AMONG A RELATIVELY SMALL SLICE OF THE POPULATION. THIS IS THE FIRST REAL VOTE OF THE ELECTION SEASON. REPUBLICANS, DEMOCRATS, UNDECLARED VOTERS, THEY CAN

ALL SHOW UP AND CAST THEIR BALLOT. >> IT IS THE BUSIEST I’VE EVER SEEN IT. IS THAT RIGHT? YEAH. MOST PEOPLE ARE SAYING I’LL BE IN THE LAST TWO ELECTIONS COMBINED. AND AS THE DAY WENT ON, YOU COULD FEEL THE RATCHETING UP. >> CAN I ASK WHO YOU VOTED FOR?

IT’S MY RIGHT TO GIVE AWAY DONALD TRUMP. >> I’VE BEEN FOR NIKKI FOR QUITE A WHILE. >> HOPEFULLY THEY’RE ALL RIDING IN JOE BIDEN. OUTSIDE PRECINCTS LIKE THESE, THERE ARE VOLUNTEERS STANDING WITH SIGNS EXPRESSING SUPPORT. EVER SINCE SHE TURNED HER BACK ON PRESIDENT TRUMP, SHE LOST ALL CONFIDENCE FROM HER TALKS

WITHIN MINUTES OF POLLS CLOSING, NIKKI HALEY CAME ON STAGE AND CONCORD, NEW HAMPSHIRE. >> I WANT TO CONGRATULATE DONALD TRUMP ON HIS VICTORY TONIGHT AND ADMITTED TO HER

SUPPORTERS THAT DONALD TRUMP HAD WON THE STATE. NEW HAMPSHIRE IS FIRST IN THE NATION. IT IS NOT THE LAST PLACE. >> AND YET IN WHAT MIGHT BE THE BIGGEST SURPRISE OF THE NIGHT, HALEY SAID SHE’S STILL NOT BOWING OUT OF THIS RACE. SO WHAT I WANT TO KNOW TODAY

IS WHETHER THIS TRULY IS STILL A TWO PERSON RACE OR WHETHER IT’S OVER, BECAUSE EITHER SCENARIO’S GOT BIG CONSEQUENCES FOR THE FALL. >> OKAY. SO IT IS LATE AT NIGHT HERE IN MANCHESTER, NEW HAMPSHIRE. WE’VE JUST WRAPPED UP A PRIMARY NIGHT COVERAGE AND I’VE GOT THE PERSON WHO’S BEEN LIKE

SIMULTANEOUSLY COVERING BOTH OF THESE CANDIDATES OVER THIS LAST WEEK. >> ABC’S RACHEL SCOTT RACHEL, IT WASN’T JUST WHO WON THAT SEEMED IMPORTANT. RIGHT. >> IT ALSO SEEMED BY HOW MUCH. WHAT ARE THE NUMBERS TELLING YOU? YEAH. NO SURPRISE. AND NO UPSET FOR NIKKI HALEY. LOOK, BEST CASE SCENARIO, SHE

WANTED TO COME OUT HERE IN NEW HAMPSHIRE WITH THIS SORT OF LANDSLIDE VICTORY THAT HER TEAM WAS PROMISING WEEKS AGO. BUT AS WE GOT CLOSER TO THE PRIMARY, REALITY STARTED TO SINK IN. AND THEY WERE JUST HOPING TO GET WITHIN STRIKING DISTANCE OF THE FORMER PRESIDENT WHILE THAT WOULD BE MAYBE FOUR OR

FIVE POINTS. WE’RE NOT REALLY SEEING THAT AT THIS POINT. LEAST TEN POINTS DIFFERENCE BETWEEN DONALD TRUMP AND NIKKI HALEY. THIS IS NOT WHAT HER TEAM WANTED HERE. AND REALLY, THEY WERE RELYING HEAVILY ON THE INDEPENDENT VOTE IN THIS STATE, FAR DIFFERENT THAN THE IOWA ELECTORATE WHERE SHE GOT A THIRD PLACE FINISH.

I AM VERY WORRIED ABOUT THE COUNTRY. >> I’M NOT ENTIRELY SURE NIKKI HALEY HAS ALL THE ANSWERS. BUT, YOU KNOW, AGAIN, IT WAS REALLY MORE OF A VOTE AGAINST TRUMP. USUALLY I’M A DEMOCRAT, BUT YEAH, JUST NOT VERY HAPPY WITH JOE BIDEN NOT BEING HERE AND YET WANTED TO SUPPORT

ANYONE BUT JOE BIDEN AND DONALD TRUMP. >> SHE KNEW THAT INDEPENDENTS IN THIS STATE WERE REALLY NOT THAT KEEN ON JOE BIDEN, REALLY NOT THAT KEEN ON DONALD TRUMP. >> AND THAT’S THE ARGUMENT THAT SHE’S BEEN MAKING OUT ON THE CAMPAIGN TRAIL, THAT SHE’S THE VESSEL TURNER TO BOTH OF THEM THIS NOVEMBER.

>> SHE CAN’T SAY THAT PEOPLE DIDN’T SHOW UP. >> RIGHT. LIKE NOT TURNOUT NUMBERS SEEM BIG, BRIGHT WHEN I TELL YOU THAT I WAS AT A POLLING LOCATION AT 6:30 A.M., 30 MINUTES BEFORE THE POLLS, EVEN OPEN, AND THERE WERE LINES SNAKING AROUND THE BUILDING OF PEOPLE WAITING TO GET IN.

YOU REALLY GOT THE SENSE, TALKING TO VOTERS THAT KNEW THIS WAS CONSEQUENTIAL. >> WE’VE GOT TO START CHOOSING PEOPLE WHO THINK RATIONALLY AND NOT ABOUT OURSELVES AS JUST UNIT. WE ARE PART OF A WHOLE WORLD. BECAUSE TYPICALLY, RIGHT IN THE NEW HAMPSHIRE, YOU GOT A BUNCH OF CANDIDATES

ON THE BALLOT, YOU GOT A LOT OF PEOPLE TO CHOOSE FROM. WELL, THIS ALL CAME DOWN TO A TWO-PERSON RACE WITH JUST TO GO . AND SO A LOT OF THESE VOTERS TOOK THIS VERY SERIOUSLY. THEY KNEW WHATEVER THEY DECIDED IN THIS NEW HAMPSHIRE PRIMARY WOULD HAVE SIGNIFICANT CONSEQUENCES ON THE OUTCOME,

NOT ONLY OF THIS PRIMARY, BUT ALSO THE GENERAL ELECTION. >> TOO OPTIMISTIC, OPTIMISTIC, OPTIMISTIC THAT’S JUST JUST FOR. RIGHT. THIS IS WHAT WE’RE DOING NOW. >> WE’RE ALL SHOWING UP AND BRAD MIELKE THERE WAS SUCH AN EAGERNESS TO GET OUT AND VOTE THAT IN SOME TOWNS AND CITIES THEY STARTED RUNNING

OUT OF REPUBLICAN PRIMARY BALLOTS. >> THEY HAD TO MAKE LAST MINUTE REQUESTS FOR MORE BALLOTS JUST SO PEOPLE COULD VOTE. >> OKAY. AND SO THEN SHE STILL LOSES BY WHAT WE’RE SEEING RIGHT NOW IS LIKE, WHAT, TEN, ALMOST 11 POINTS? WHAT WAS THE REACTION FROM FROM EACH OF THE CANDIDATES AS THE

RACE WAS PROJECTED? YEAH. SO HALEY STARTS TO SEE THE WRITING ON THE WALL. SHE COMES OUT PRETTY QUICKLY HERE. >> THEY THINK AND SHE SAYS, LOOK, THIS RACE IS FAR FROM OVER. DUM DUM, DUM. I’M NOT DROPPING OUT. AND THAT’S REALLY WHAT EVERYBODY WAS SORT OF WAITING FOR, RIGHT? HERE’S THE MOMENT.

SHE THOUGHT SHE WAS GOING TO WIN BIG HERE. SHE DIDN’T. IS SHE GOING TO END HER CAMPAIGN AND ENDORSE DONALD TRUMP? THAT DIDN’T HAPPEN AT ALL. IN FACT, NIKKI HALEY SAID THE EXACT. SOUTH CAROLINA VOTERS DON’T WANT A CORONATION. THEY WANT AN ELECTION. SHE WAS LIKE, LOOK, SEE YOU IN

SOUTH CAROLINA. I’M STAYING IN THE RACE. AND IN FACT, I’M CHALLENGING YOU TO GET ON THE DEBATE STAGE AND GO ONE ON ONE WITH ME. >> GO HEAD TO HEAD. YEAH, AND FAR FROM ENDORSING HIM, IT DID SEEM LIKE SHE WAS COMING OUT HARDER AGAINST HIM THAN EVEN ON THE CAMPAIGN TRAIL

THIS FAR. >> YEAH. AND SHE’S REALLY HAD TO WALK THIS FINE LINE. RIGHT. ALL OF THESE REPUBLICAN CANDIDATES HAVE DURING THE PROCESS OF THIS REPUBLICAN PRIMARY, BECAUSE THEY DON’T WANT TO TURN OFF THE VOTERS THAT THEY NEED TO PEEL AWAY IN ORDER TO CLINCH THE NOMINATION. BUT THEY ALSO, AT SOME POINT

NEED TO DRAW SOME SORT OF CONTRAST WITH TRUMP THE OTHER DAY. DONALD TRUMP ACCUSED ME OF NOT PROVIDING SECURITY AT THE CAPITOL ON JANUARY 6. NOW KNOW I’VE LONG CALLED FOR A MENTAL COMPETENCY TEST FOR POLITICIANS OVER THE AGE OF 75. AND SO THAT HAS PROVED REALLY DIFFICULT FOR NIKKI HALEY.

AND SHE’S NOW STARTING TO RAMP UP HER ATTACKS ON THE FORMER PRESIDENT. >> BUT IT MIGHT JUST BE TOO LITTLE, TOO LATE. WHAT WAS TRUMP’S REACTION? >> I GUESS HE COMES OUT NEXT AND YOU’RE THERE IN THE ROOM WITH HIM. YEAH. SO, LOOK, TRUMP’S MINDSET HEADING INTO THIS WAS HE JUST

WANTED A WIN. DIDN’T MATTER REALLY BY HOW MUCH. HE JUST WANTED THAT. W OKAY. AND THAT WAS REALLY BECAUSE HE WANTED TO SEND A MESSAGE TO NIKKI HALEY THAT IT’S TIME TO GET OUT OF THE RACE, THAT I WANT AN IOWA, I WANT A NEW HAMPSHIRE. THIS IS MY NOMINATION.

THIS IS A GREAT, GREAT STATE. YOU HAVE THE FORMER PRESIDENT. HE WAS CLEARLY WATCHING NIKKI HALEY ON THAT STAGE. LISTENING CLOSELY TO WHAT SHE WAS SAYING. >> AND IT CLEAR HE WAS NOT HAPPY ABOUT IT. AND SHE WAS UP AND SAID, WOW, SHE’S DOING LIKE A SPEECH LIKE SHE WON.

>> SHE DIDN’T WIN. >> SHE LOST. AND YES, HE TOOK A VICTORY LAP, BUT HE ALSO TOOK ON NIKKI HALEY VERY AGGRESSIVELY, PERSONALLY ANGRY WITH HER, PERSONALLY UPSET THAT SHE DID NOT DROP OUT OF THIS RACE. BUT THE ONLY PERSON MORE ANGRY THAN, LET’S SAY ME, BUT I DON’T GET TOO ANGRY.

>> I GUESS EVEN THE ONLY PERSON AND B, LIKE THE REST OF HIS FORMER RIVALS, HE HAD TIM SCOTT ON THAT STAGE. HE HAD VIVEK RAMASWAMY. THESE ARE PEOPLE THAT WERE IN THE RACE. THEY DROPPED OUT. THEY ENDORSED HIM. THAT WAS THERE TO SEND A MESSAGE THAT NOW IT’S TIME

FOR THE PARTY TO UNIFY. AND HE WAS REALLY UPSET THAT NIKKI HALEY JUST DIDN’T DO THAT. DID YOU GET A SENSE OF WHY THAT THIS STATE AT THIS MOMENT IRKED HIM SO MUCH THAT SHE WASN’T JUST DROPPING OUT? >> LOOK, IN TRUMP’S MIND RIGHT NOW, THIS IS A GENERAL ELECTION MATCH UP.

SO HE’S JUST READY TO GET THIS PRIMARY OVER WITH QUICKLY SO THAT THE PARTY CAN FOCUS ON FIGURING OUT WAYS THAT THEY CAN DEFEAT JOE BIDEN. >> I’M QUOTING TRUMP NO MATTER WHAT. I, I DON’T KNOW IF I’M GOING TO VOTE IF HE DOESN’T MAKE IT. ONE THING THAT I FOUND PARTICULARLY INTERESTING

IS THAT BY EXIT POLLS, TRUMP DOES REALLY WELL ON THE ISSUES IN THE STATE. VOTERS LIKE WHAT HE HAS TO SAY AND REPUBLICANS LIKE HIS STANCE ON IMMIGRATION. THEY LIKE HIS STANCE ON THE ECONOMY FAR MORE THAN THEY LIKE NIKKI HALEY STANCE ON THOSE ISSUES. >> AND JUST A LITTLE NOTE TO NIKKI.

>> SHE’S NOT GOING TO WIN. CHUCK TODD. BUT IF SHE DID, SHE WOULD BE UNDER INVESTIGATION BY THOSE PEOPLE IN 15 MINUTES. >> BUT SHE DIDN’T TALK ABOUT ANY POLICY DURING THAT SPEECH. IT WAS ALL GRIEVANCE WAS ALL ATTACKS AGAINST NIKKI HALEY, A LOT OF AIRING OF FRUSTRATIONS.

>> SO THEN, OKAY, WHAT HAPPENS NOW? LIKE LATER THIS MORNING, THEY BOTH GO TO SOUTH CAROLINA. >> WHAT’S THE DEAL? WELL, NIKKI HALEY IS GOING TO SOUTH CAROLINA. >> TRUMP GOD KNOWS WHAT HE’S GOING TO SAY TOMORROW, AND YOU JUST DON’T KNOW WHAT’S GOING TO HAPPEN. AND SO SHE’S THERE AND IF

HE STUMBLES, SHE’S THERE. AND HER TEAM REALLY SEES THE NEXT FEW WEEKS AS ABSOLUTELY CRITICAL. THEY HAVE JUST ABOUT A MONTH TO TRY TO GAIN ENOUGH MOMENTUM TO ACTUALLY BEAT TRUMP. >> IT’S BEEN TEN YEARS SINCE SHE’S ACTUALLY RUN IN SOUTH CAROLINA. SO COMING UP NEXT, WE’LL TALK ABOUT HOW SHE DOES THAT,

WHETHER SHE’S GOT A CHANCE OR WHETHER THIS IS OVER. >> RACHEL SCOTT. THANK YOU SO MUCH. THANKS, BRAD. ACTUALLY, I’M SURE WHEN RACHEL SLEEPS. ALL RIGHT. WHEN WE COME BACK, HALEY SAYS SHE’S GOING TO SOUTH CAROLINA. IS SHE GOING TO WIN SOUTH CAROLINA OR ANYWHERE, FOR THAT MATTER? EXAMINING WHAT COME

VOTES COMING IN TOWN BY TOWN AND TRANSLATING THEM INTO THE BROADER TREND WE SHOULD BE WATCHING OUT FOR. AND RICK, MY FIRST QUESTION IS, IS THIS OVER? LIKE STICK A FORK IN IT, DROP THE BALLOON, START PRINTING OUT THE BALLOTS FOR NOVEMBER. THERE’S GOING TO BE A TRUMP BIDEN REMATCH.

>> IT’S DONE. LOOK, I’VE BEEN LOOKING FOR WAYS THAT NIKKI HALEY WIN THIS AND YOU CAN FIND IT, BUT, MAN, YOU HAVE TO SQUINT. THE AREAS, THE STATE OF NEW HAMPSHIRE AND EVEN IOWA, WHERE SHE DID PRETTY WELL, SUBURBAN VOTERS AND FEMALE VOTERS, MODERATE INDEPENDENT VOTERS. YOU CAN LOOK HOW SHE SEES

THE SHARE OF THE ELECTORATE EVEN IN NEW HAMPSHIRE. THEN YOU CAN LOOK FORWARD A BIT AND SAY, WOW, NEXT BIG CONTEST ON EVERYONE’S RADAR SCREEN IS HER HOME STATE OF SOUTH CAROLINA. BUT IF YOU LOOK A LITTLE BIT DEEPER, YOU REALIZE THAT ACTUALLY BEFORE THAT IS THE NEVADA CAUCUSES.

SHE’S NOT EVEN ON THE BALLOT ON THOSE CONTESTS. AND THEN IN SOUTH CAROLINA, ALTHOUGH OUR FIVETHIRTYEIGHT POLLING AVERAGE HAS HER DOWN LIKE 35 POINTS, YOU’RE STILL LOOKING AT SUPER TUESDAY, WHERE TRUMP’S NATIONAL EDGE IS JUST ENORMOUS. SO IT IS A DAUNTING CHALLENGE. IT’S REALLY HARD TO SEE

HOW NIKKI HALEY CAN PULL IT OUT AND NO ONE HAS EVER WON IOWA AND NEW HAMPSHIRE AND NOT GONE ON TO WIN THE NOMINATION. IT DOESN’T LOOK LIKE NIKKI HALEY IS WELL POSITIONED RIGHT NOW TO BE THE ONE WHEN IT COMES TO SOUTH CAROLINA. >> LOOK, SHE CAN’T JUST FINISH

SECOND IN A BUNCH OF STATES, RIGHT? THERE’S ONLY TWO CANDIDATES FINISHING SECOND. IT’S NOT A GREAT PLACE. THAT’S NOT AWESOME. IS THERE A STATE WHERE SHE WINS? >> LIKE NEW HAMPSHIRE WAS SUPPOSED TO BE THE MOST FORGIVING STATE AND, YOU KNOW, SHE LOST IT. >> SHE’S GOT A BRONZE MEDAL

IN IOWA, A SILVER IN NEW HAMPSHIRE. SHE ADDS TO IT, I THINK FUNCTIONALLY, SOUTH CAROLINA, SHE CAN CONVINCE HER DONORS THAT THAT SHE CAN GO ON. BUT THERE’S ANOTHER STRATEGY THAT’S STARTING TO EMERGE THAT IS BASICALLY, LOOK, DONALD TRUMP IS SO FLAWED WITH SO MANY PROBLEMS, SO MANY DISTRACTIONS,

THAT THERE’S SOMETHING TO BE SAID FOR JUST BEING IN THE GAME BECAUSE WHO KNOWS IF HE’LL IMPLODE. WHO KNOWS IF THERE’LL BE A HEALTH ISSUE, CRIMINAL ISSUES THAT PUT HIM ESSENTIALLY BEHIND BARS BEFORE YOU GET TO THE CONVENTION. >> IT’S KIND OF A WILD STRATEGY. >> BUT THEN AGAIN, MORE LIKE

JUST LIKE JUST TO BE THE CLEAR ALTERNATIVE. >> THERE’S ONE ALTERNATIVE, AND IT’S NIKKI HALEY, THE BRIT CLASS ALTERNATIVE, AND OF COURSE, IF YOU REALLY GOT TO THAT SITUATION, THERE’S OTHER THERE’S OTHER GREAT CLASS SCENARIOS. BUT I HEARD THIS FROM DESANTIS PEOPLE IN THE DAYS BEFORE HE OUT THAT HE’S WORTH STAYING

IN JUST IN CASE THINGS TRULY GO SOUTH FOR DONALD TRUMP. AND THERE WILL BE SOME PRESSURE FROM PEOPLE THAT REALLY WANT A TRUMP ALTERNATIVE FOR NIKKI HALEY TO STICK IT OUT, EVEN IF SHE’S NOT WINNING. >> THE QUESTION ULTIMATELY BECOMES WHAT HALEY WANTS OUT OF THIS, RIGHT? BECAUSE IF SHE’S LOOKING OUT

THERE AND SAYING, I DON’T REALLY SEE A PATH I MAY GET, I MAY GET HUMILIATED THERE IN MY HOME STATE OF SOUTH CAROLINA, THEN IT BECOMES THE THERE’S A COST TO STICKING STICKING AROUND AND, YOU KNOW, LOSING IS NOT A WAY TO WIN. AND DONALD TRUMP HAS ALREADY

SIGNALED IT IS GOING TO BE A VICIOUS MONTH BEFORE SOUTH CAROLINA. >> HE’S ALREADY DROPPING HINTS OF THE THINGS HE’S GOING TO SAY ABOUT HER, WHAT SOME OF HIS ASSOCIATES WILL DO. YOU KNOW, I TALKED TO A TRUMP AIDE IN DECEMBER WHO TALKED ABOUT THE PRIMARY ROAD AHEAD AND SAID, LOOK, DO

NOT UNDERESTIMATE OUR ABILITY TO DO BASICALLY WHATEVER WE WANT TO WHOMEVER WE WANT, HOWEVER WE WANT TO DO IT. THEY ARE WITH THE JUGGERNAUT THEY HAVE BUILT OF OF RUNNING A CAMPAIGN THAT THE LIKES OF WHICH WE RARELY SEE IN POLITICS. >> GREAT BRAND. I CALL IT PRETTY HIGHLY OVERRATED.

SHE’S A VERY HIGHLY OVERRATED PERSON. >> A LOT OF WHAT HE SAYS IS IS OVER THE LINE AGAINST HIS HIS OPPONENTS. AND THE UPSIDE IS YOU’RE PROBABLY NOT GOING TO WIN ANYWAY. NIKKI HALEY’S GOING TO HAVE TO LOOK IN THE MIRROR. BUT LOOK, AT LEAST FOR NOW, SHE

SAYS THEY’RE ON TO THE NEXT ROUND OF STATES AND THEY WILL GET SOME ENCOURAGEMENT FROM WHAT’S LEFT OF THE ANTI-TRUMP FORCES. >> IS THAT KIND OF THE LEGACY OF THIS TRUMP CAMPAIGN? RICK, JUST THE ABJECT SORT OF POLITICAL CRUELTY AGAINST THESE OTHER CANDIDATES? >> IS THAT WHY THEY’VE ALL BEEN

DROPPING OUT SO EARLY? BECAUSE THEY KNOW THAT IF THEY HANDLE THIS THE WRONG WAY, THEIR FUTURE IN REPUBLICAN POLITICS IS DONE. >> HE CAN SHRED THE REPUTATION OF ANYONE HE WANTS TO. ALSO, WE’VE ALSO SEEN JUST THE FRUSTRATION ALL THESE CANDIDATES HAVE ABOUT PEELING AWAY ANY OF HIS SUPPORT.

>> I MEAN, YOU LOOK AT THE FIELD THAT FIRST EMERGED HERE. >> YOU HAD RON DESANTIS, THIS RISING STAR HAD SUCCESSES IN A IN A REDDENING STATE. >> IT’S CLEAR TO ME THAT A MAJORITY OF REPUBLICAN PRIMARY VOTERS WANT TO GIVE DONALD TRUMP ANOTHER CHANCE. >> TIM SCOTT, THE ONLY BLACK

REPUBLICAN SENATOR HIMSELF, IS THE INSPIRING STORY ON THE CAMPAIGN TRAIL. >> WE NEED A PRESIDENT WHO WILL OUR SOUTHERN BORDER TO DO. WE NEED DONALD TRUMP. YOU HAD CHRIS CHRISTIE BRINGING THAT ANTI-TRUMP BANNER. >> YOU HAD VICE PRESIDENT PENCE, HIS OWN VP UP THERE. >> NONE OF THOSE GUYS MADE IT

TO NEW HAMPSHIRE. THE ONLY PERSON STANDING IS NIKKI HALEY. SO THERE’S SOMETHING TO BE SAID FOR THAT ACHIEVEMENT ALONE. BUT YEAH, IF NIKKI HALEY WANTS TO STICK THIS OUT, SHE’S GOING TO HAVE TO BUCKLE UP FOR A BRUTAL COUPLE OF WEEKS OF CAMPAIGNING. AT LEAST NOT SEVERAL MONTHS

OF A LONG SLOG, PROBABLY SHE, ON TODAY’S FACTS, DOES NOT END IN HER WINNING WELL. >> AND SO IF WHAT I’M HEARING IS LIKE, YOU KNOW, FOR ALL INTENTS AND PURPOSES, TRUMP IS THE PRESUMPTIVE NOMINEE, LIKE SOMETHING WOULD NEED TO ALMOST GET OUT OF THAT ROLE SOMEHOW.

>> HOW IS HE POSITIONING HIMSELF, NATALIE? DOES HE START POSITIONING HIMSELF RIGHT NOW FOR THE GENERAL ELECTION? >> AND WHAT DOES THAT LOOK LIKE? HE’S GOING TO BE TRUMP. I MEAN, LOOK, THIS IS NOT SOMEONE I THINK THAT YOU COULD SAY IS CAPABLE OF A PIVOT TO A GENERAL ELECTION.

THERE’S TIMES WHERE HE’S TRIED TO DO THAT. >> HE’S TALKED ABOUT DOING THAT. YOU’VE BEEN HERE. I JUST SEE IT LIKE TIM SCOTT IS LIKE ALMOST WEARING A SIGN AROUND HIS NECK THAT SAYS, LIKE, PICK ME FOR VICE PRESIDENT. I JUST WONDERING IF THAT’S ON TRUMP’S MIND. >> YEAH, THAT’S NOT THAT’S NOT

GOING TO BE WHAT WE SEE OUT OF OUT OF DONALD TRUMP IS GOING TO BE SOME KIND OF MODERATING. >> I THINK YOU’RE GOING TO SEE WHAT YOU ALWAYS SEE WITH HIM, WHICH IS HE’LL TRY OUT A LOT OF WILD THINGS. HE’S NOT GOING TO BACK DOWN.

AND LOOK, HE HAS BUILT THIS CAMPAIGN AROUND HIMSELF. >> IF YOU WANT TO DEFEAT THE RADICAL LEFT DEMOCRATS AND SAVE AMERICA, YOU MUST VOTE FOR YOUR FAVORITE PRESIDENT OF ALL TIME, DONALD J. >> TRUMP. THAT’S BEEN VENGEANCE FOR HIM AND HIS SUPPORTERS AROUND GRIEVANCE POLITICS AND AROUND FUNDAMENTALLY, THE FEELING

THAT REPUBLICAN VOTERS WILL BUY INTO THE STRUGGLE THAT HE HAS TALKED ABOUT AS THEIR OWN. >> HOW IS BIDEN DEALING? I CAN’T BELIEVE I’M ALREADY ASKING YOU THIS, BUT I MEAN, THIS IS THE REALITY. WHAT IS BIDEN DOING AS FAR AS A GENERAL ELECTION MATCH UP?

>> OH, LOOK, HE IS NOW SAYING IT’S CLEAR THAT IT’S GOING TO BE TRUMP AND HE HAS POSITIONED HIMSELF FOR SOME TIME AGAINST THE MAGA MOVEMENT. >> HE’S MADE CLEAR THAT HE RELISHES THAT FIGHT. TRUMP SAYS HE’S PROUD THAT HE OVERTURN ROE V. WADE. HE SAID, AND I QUOTE, THERE HAS

TO BE PUNISHMENT FOR THE ONE THAT EXERCISING THE REPRODUCTIVE FREEDOM. HE DESCRIBES THE DECISION AS A MIRACLE. >> BUT FOR AMERICAN WOMEN, IT’S A NIGHTMARE. BIDEN THIS WHOLE POLITICAL IDENTITY AS PRESIDENT HAS BEEN SHAPED AROUND THE REACTIONS TO TRUMP. AND THAT TEAM HAS BEEN PREPARING. EVEN IF IT WASN’T, TRUMP WAS

THE NOMINEE. THEY WERE GOING TO SQUARE OFF AGAINST THE MAGA AGENDA. >> AS IT IS, THEY’RE PROBABLY GOING TO GET TRUMP. >> AND SO YOU’RE STARTING TO SEE THEM POKE OUT A LITTLE BIT MORE, TALKING ABOUT THE THREATS TO DEMOCRACY, TALKING ABOUT ABORTION RIGHTS AND FREEDOMS, TRYING TO TOUT THEIR ACCOMPLISHMENTS.

BUT THEY HAVE BEEN SLOW GOING. BUT THERE’S A TEAM THAT’S IN WILMINGTON THAT’S READY TO GO AGAINST DONALD TRUMP. LAST QUESTION, RICK. I’M WONDERING WHAT WHAT WE’VE JUST SEEN MEANS FOR LIKE THE FUTURE ELECTIONS, BECAUSE LAST TIME I WAS HERE IN NEW HAMPSHIRE, IT WAS A VERY DYNAMIC DEMOCRATIC PRIMARY. >> RIGHT?

EVERYONE, EVERYONE’S ENGAGED. EVERYONE AGREES THIS IS HOW WE DECIDE THE PROCESS. NOW, FOUR YEARS LATER, DESPITE A VERY DIFFERENT CAMPAIGN PROCESS, ONE PARTY DOESN’T EVEN WANT TO BE HERE AND THE OTHER ONE JUST ELECTED THE SAME GUY IT ELECTED EIGHT YEARS AGO. IT LOOKS LIKE WE’RE GOING TO THE SAME MATCHUP, RIGHT?

SO IF NOTHING HAS CHANGED, IF THE MODERATE POLITICIAN WHO FOCUSES ON RETAIL POLITICS CANNOT CARRY THE STATE, DOES IT MEAN THE OLD STYLE OF NEW HAMPSHIRE CAMPAIGNING IS DONE? >> IT’S FINISHED. YOU KNOW, THIS IS A CONVERSATION I HAD A LOT WHEN I WAS IN NEW HAMPSHIRE IN THE

RUN UP TO THE PRIMARY THIS YEAR BECAUSE I LOVE IT. I LOVE THE FEEL, THE VIBES, THE WAY PEOPLE IT. >> SERIOUSLY, I’M NOT READY TO GIVE UP ON THE NEW HAMPSHIRE PRIMARY. >> I THINK THERE’S SOMETHING REALLY VALUABLE ABOUT THE CANDIDATES BEING OUT AMONG THE PEOPLE, MEETING THEM,

HEARING THEIR CONCERNS, QUESTIONS. >> YOU BRING THIS TO A BIGGER STATE. YOU KNOW, CALIFORNIA OR NEW YORK OR SOMETHING LIKE THAT, AND YOU JUST CAN’T COVER IT THE WAY YOU DO HERE. I THINK THIS MIGHT JUST BE A PHASE. THIS IS A WEIRD ELECTION THAT MAY TURN OUT TO BE

ESSENTIALLY TO INCUMBENTS RUNNING AGAINST EACH OTHER. DONALD TRUMP IS BROKEN. SO MUCH OF WHAT WE WE KNOW ABOUT POLITICS, I THINK THERE WILL BE ANOTHER SIDE TO THIS AND I THINK WHEN THE 2028 CAMPAIGN STARTS GOING THAT PEOPLE ARE GOING TO START GOING BACK TO NEW HAMPSHIRE

AND IT’S HARD FOR ME TO IMAGINE THIS TRADITION. >> AND THERE WAS A SENSE THAT I HAD IN NEW HAMPSHIRE THAT FELT LIKE MAYBE MAYBE AN ERA WAS ENDING, BUT THINK IT’S PROBABLY JUST STARTING A NEW CHAPTER. ALL RIGHT. REALLY INTERESTING STUFF. RIGHT? RICK KLEIN, OUR POLITICAL DIRECTOR, THANK YOU SO MUCH.

THANKS, MARK. >> AND AS RICK DESCRIBED THAT, IT MADE ME THINK ABOUT HOW MANY WE SPOKE TO HERE WHO ARE AS PLUGGED IN AS ANYONE. >> YOU KNOW, TRUMP WON IOWA. HE MAY WIN, BUT I DON’T THINK HE CAN WIN IN NOVEMBER. THIS IS A STATE WHERE PEOPLE OPENLY TALK POLITICS

ACROSS THE DINING ROOM TABLE. THAT THIS WAS A HUSBAND AND WIFE. SHE HAD JUST VOTED FOR HALEY. HE HAD VOTED FOR TRUMP. I WAS FOR NIKKI TO BEGIN WITH. YEAH BUT I CHANGED MY. OH, AND HOW DO YOU FEEL ABOUT THAT? HE CAN VOTE FOR WHOEVER HE WANTS.

WHEN IT COMES TO THE ISSUES. THIS IS A STATE THAT IS SO UNIQUE IN SO MANY WAYS, RIGHT? IT’S GOT AN AGING POPULATION AND IT’S GOT A DISPROPORTIONATE NUMBER OF VETERANS. SO MANY FAMILIES HERE HAVE BEEN RAVAGED BY THE OPIOID CRISIS. THEY WERE SOUNDING THE ALARM. BUT WHEN YOU ASK VOTERS THIS

YEAR, WHAT THEY CARE ABOUT, THE THINGS THAT COULD REALLY DECIDE THEIR CHOICE. >> I MEAN, IMMIGRATION IS MY NUMBER ONE CONCERN FOR MYSELF IS THE ECONOMY IT’S MY CHILDREN, IT’S EDUCATION, CORRUPTION IN GOVERNMENT. ABSOLUTELY HANDS DOWN. >> THESE ARE NATIONAL ISSUES. THESE ARE THE SAME ISSUES YOU’D HEAR ABOUT IN TEXAS OR

CALIFORNIA, WHICH IS FINE. THEY AFFECT US ALL. BUT IT’S ONE MORE REASON THAT THE CONVERSATION HAS MOVED BEYOND THE TRADITIONAL PLAYBOOK ABOUT WINNING OVER POCKETS OF VOTERS, AND THAT HAS PROFOUNDLY OCCASIONS FOR HOW CAMPAIGNS ARE WON. >> IOWA, WE LOVE YOU. YOU ARE GOING TO GO.

YOU JUST GO OUT AND BUY LARGER TRACTORS AND MORE LAND. >> DON’T WORRY ABOUT IT. IOWA WAS DECIDED. CONSERVATIVES LIKE, ACCORDING TO EXIT POLLS, HALF OF CAUCUS GOERS DESCRIBE THEMSELVES AS VERY CONSERVATIVE. ONLY 9% DESCRIBE THEMSELVES AS MODERATE. >> WELL, THERE ARE A LOT MODERATES IN THIS COUNTRY.

A LOT OF THEM WANT TO VOTE FOR A REPUBLICAN PRESIDENT. AND NEW HAMPSHIRE, WHERE UNDECLARED VOTERS CAN PARTICIPATE. >> WE SAW A LOT MORE OF THEM. >> NO, NOBODY THAT I KNOW WANTS TO SEE A BIDEN TRUMP MATCHUP. MANY MODERATES BROKE FOR HALEY. WOMEN TURNED OUT FOR HALEY.

>> SHE IS THE PERSON WE NEED. OH, YEAH. YOUNG AND CONSERVATIVE. >> IT COULD BE ONE OF THE REASONS TRUMP SEEMS READY TO BE DONE WITH THIS WHOLE PRIMARY THING. AS STRONG AS HE’S BEEN RUNNING IN REPUBLICAN CIRCLES. >> THIS BROADER ELECTORATE DID EXPOSE SOME WEAK SPOTS.

SO, I MEAN, CANDIDLY, MY VOTE FOR HALEY IS A MIDDLE TO TRUMP. >> NEW HAMPSHIRE IS ONE OF THE WHITEST STATES IN THE NATION. IT’S ALSO ONE OF THE OLDEST. THERE ARE GOOD REASONS TO SAY, YOU KNOW, LET’S GIVE OTHER STATES TRY. >> BUT EVERY FOUR YEARS, LIKE

AN AGING PITCHER HEADING BACK TO THE MOUND, IT STILL HAS SOME LESSONS TO TEACH AND IT’S STILL GOT A FEW CURVE LEFT. >> IT’S A GREAT PLACE TO LIVE. THAT’S IT. THEN GO HOME. OKAY. WE WILL FOLLOW THAT VOTER’S ADVICE. WE ARE PACKING UP. REALLY? YOU FOUND THIS PRIMARY COVERAGE

USEFUL. ALWAYS CURIOUS TO HEAR WHAT YOU THINK AND IF YOU FOUND THESE EPISODES VALUABLE. HEY, LEAVE A FIVE STAR RATING AND REVIEW WHEREVER YOU LISTEN .

PRIMARY EVEN THOUGH HE WASN’T THE BALLOT. ABC NEWS SENIOR CONGRESSIONAL CORRESPONDENT RACHAEL SCOTT. >> THE LATEST FROM MANCHESTER. DONALD TRUMP WITH A DECISIVE VICTORY IN THE FIRST IN THE NATION PRIMARY, DEFEATING HIS FORMER U.N. AMBASSADOR HALEY BY MORE THAN 11 POINTS IN NEW HAMPSHIRE. SHE DID VERY POORLY, ACTUALLY.

SHE HAD TO WIN. THE GOVERNOR SAID SHE’S GOING TO WIN. SHE’S GOING TO WIN. SHE’S GOING TO WIN. THEN SHE SHE FAILED BADLY. >> TRUMP NOW BARRELING TOWARD THE REPUBLICAN NOMINATION, SHARING THE STAGE. >> TWO OF HIS FORMER RIVALS CALLING ON THE PARTY TO UNIFY AROUND HIM.

>> IT IS TIME FOR THE REPUBLICAN PARTY TO COALESCE AROUND OUR NOMINEE AND THE NEXT PRESIDENT OF THE UNITED STATES, DONALD TRUMP. >> BUT HALEY REJECTED THAT, VOWING PRESS ON THIS RACE IS FAR FROM OVER. THERE ARE DOZENS OF STATES LEFT TO GO IN THE NEXT ONE IS

MY SWING STATE OF SOUTH. >> THE FORMER SOUTH CAROLINA GOVERNOR STAKED HER CAMPAIGN A STRONG SHOWING HERE, HOPING INDEPENDENTS WOULD HELP HER PULL OFF A MAJOR. WE FEEL CONFIDENT. WE’RE EXCITED. I MEAN, THIS WHAT ELECTION DAY IS ALL ABOUT. >> HALEY ARGUING SHE’S THE LAST PERSON STANDING A TRUMP

BIDEN REMATCH WITH DONALD TRUMP. >> YOU HAD ONE BOUT OF CHAOS AFTER ANOTHER. THIS COURT CASE, THAT CONTROVERSY, THIS TWEET, THAT SENIOR MOMENT, YOU CAN’T FIX JOE BIDEN’S CHAOS WITH REPUBLIC IN CHAOS. >> AFTER TWO DISAPPOINTING LOSSES IN IOWA AND NEW HAMPSHIRE, HALEY’S PATH TO THE NOMINATION IS ONLY GETTING MORE DIFFICULT.

AND SHE’S UP AGAINST HISTORY. NO REPUBLICAN CANDIDATE HAS EVER WON THE FIRST TWO STATES AND WENT ON TO LOSE THE NOMINATION. >> WHEN WIN IOWA AND YOU WIN NEW HAMPSHIRE, THEY’VE NEVER A LOSS. THERE’S NEVER BEEN. SO IF WE’RE NOT GOING TO BE THE FIRST, I CAN TELL YOU.

HOURS EARLIER WHEN I ASKED TRUMP ABOUT HALEY STAYING IN THE RACE HE INSISTED HE WASN’T THAT CONCERNED. >> MR.. LOOKING TO THIS YOU GET TO YOU KNOW AND I DON’T CARE WHAT YOU DO WHATEVER YOU WANT IT DOESN’T MATTER. >> BUT ONCE SHE REFUSED TO DROP

OUT AFTER HIS WIN, HE LASHED OUT, CALLING HER DELUSIONAL. >> AND WHEN I WATCHED HER IN THE FANCY DRESS, THAT PROBABLY WASN’T SO FANCY COMING UP, I SAID. >> WHAT’S SHE DOING? WE WON. BUT I DON’T GET TOO ANGRY. I GET EVEN. >> THE SPEECH WAS LIGHT ON THE POLICY, HEAVY

ON THE PERSONAL ATTACKS AND GRIEVANCES. THE FORMER PRESIDENT MAKING FALSE CLAIMS, EVERYTHING FROM THE 2020 ELECTION TO DEMOCRATIC POLICIES. SO YOU COULD ACTUALLY VOTE IN THE NEW HAMPSHIRE REPUBLICAN PRIMARY. THE HALEY CAMPAIGN WATCHING SPEECH CLOSELY, ISSUING A STATEMENT CALLING IT AN ANGRY RANT, SAYING THE FORMER PRESIDENT OFFERED NOTHING TO THE AMERICAN PEOPLE

ABOUT HIS VISION FOR THE FUTURE OF THE COUNTRY. >> DIANE. SENIOR CONGRESSIONAL CORRESPONDENT RACHEL SCOTT YOU. AND ABC NEWS DEPUTY POLITICAL DIRECTOR AVERI HARPER JOINS ME NOW FROM MANCHESTER, NEW HAMPSHIRE WITH MORE. AVERY, NEW HAMPSHIRE WAS SUPPOSED BE NIKKI HALEY’S BIG BREAKOUT MOMENT. SO WHAT HAPPENED? RIGHT. NIKKI HALEY SPENT A LOT

OF TIME, MONEY AND EFFORT HERE IN THE STATE OF NEW HAMPSHIRE. AND WE KNOW THAT UNDECLARED VOTERS WERE A CRITICAL PART OF HER STRATEGY HERE. THEY WERE 46% OF THE ELECTORATE OF THE FOLKS WHO TURNED OUT TO VOTE YESTERDAY. BUT IT JUST WAS NOT ENOUGH FOR HER TO OVERTAKE FORMER PRESIDENT TRUMP.

HE IS STILL REMAINS VERY POPULAR WITH THE REPUBLICAN HERE. AND SO ULTIMATELY, SHE HAS LOST THAT RACE. SHE CAME IN ABOUT TEN POINTS BEHIND FORMER PRESIDENT TRUMP. AND I’M ALWAYS IT’S A QUESTION OF IF SHE HAS A VIABLE PATH TO THE NOMINATION. THE NEXT CONTEST IS THE NEVADA

REPUBLICAN LESS THAN A MONTH AWAY. BUT TRUMP AND HALEY ARE BOTH CONCENTRATING ON SOUTH CAROLINA. WE HEARD KELLY SAY SOUTH CAROLINA IS NEXT. WHY IS THAT? RIGHT. SO NEVADA’S HOSTING TWO CONTESTS, ONE IS A GOVERNMENT RUN PRIMARY AND ANOTHER IS THE PARTY RUN CAUCUSES? THAT PARTY RUN CAUCUSES ARE THE

ONLY ONES THAT ACTUALLY COUNT TOWARD THE RACES, COUNTING OF DELEGATES AND WHO GETS TO ULTIMATELY BE THE NOMINEE OF THE PARTY. NIKKI HALEY IS ON THE BALLOT FOR THE PRIMARY. DONALD IS ON THE BALLOT FOR THE CAUCUSES. AND THIS IS REALLY AN INTRA PARTY SORT OF DISPUTE IN WHAT

WAS THE WIDE OPEN FIELD OF GOP CANDIDATES. THERE WAS THOUGHT THAT THE CAUCUSES ACTUALLY STACKED THE CHIPS FOR FORMER PRESIDENT TRUMP. AND SO THERE WASN’T A LOT OF ENTHUSIASM ON THE PART OF FOLKS TO PARTICIPATE IN THAT. SO IN SOUTH CAROLINA, WE WILL SEE BOTH OF THEM ON THE BALLOT.

THAT IS THE NEXT TIME THEY ARE GOING TO BE BOTH COMPETING IN A NOMINATING CONTEST. SO HOW MUCH SUPPORT DOES HALEY HAVE IN HER HOME STATE AND WHAT WOULD IT TAKE AT POINT FOR HALEY TO WIN THE GOP NOMINATION? YOU RIGHT IN HER HOME. SO SHE’S ACTUALLY TRAILING PRETTY FAR BEHIND, FORMER

PRESIDENT TRUMP WHEN WE LOOK AT OUR RECENT POLLING. IF YOU LOOK AT THE FIVETHIRTYEIGHT POLLING ANALYSIS, SHE IS NEARLY 40 POINTS BEHIND FORMER PRESIDENT TRUMP IN HER HOME STATE, DESPITE THE FACT THAT SHE HAS WIDE NAME RECOGNITION, ARE FAMILIAR WITH HER AFTER HAVING BEEN THE GOVERNOR OF THAT STATE.

AND SO IT’S DEFINITELY GONG TO BE AN UPHILL BATTLE FOR HER TO WIN THAT STATE OF SOUTH CAROLINA AND MANY OF THE PRIMARIES THAT COME AFTER IT. SO WHAT DOES SHE HAVE TO CONSIDER IN WEIGHING LONG TO STAY IN THIS RACE? RIGHT. I THINK SHE HAS TO CONSIDER

THE CONFIDENCE OF HER SUPPORTERS AND OF HER DONORS, THE FOLKS WHO ARE FINANCIALLY POWERING HER CAMPAIGN. NOW, SHE HAS SOME MONEY TO KEEP GOING, BUT IT DOESN’T NECESSARILY MEAN THAT SHE’S GOING TO BE ABLE TO SUSTAIN HER CAMPAIGN FOR MUCH LONGER. I THINK SHE ALSO HAS TO WEIGH

WHAT HER POLITICAL FUTURE LOOKS LIKE. DOES SHE NEED TO MAINTAIN RELATIONSHIPS WITHIN THE REPUBLICAN PARTY FOR A FUTURE RUN, SAY, IN 2028? THOSE ALL HAVE TO BE AS NIKKI HALEY DECIDES WHETHER SHE’S GOING TO CONTINUE TO GO FOR. ALL RIGHT. DEPUTY POLITICAL DIRECTOR AVERI HARPER IN NEW HAMPSHIRE, THANK YOU.

AND RUSSIA’S DEFENSE MINISTER SAYS A RUSSIAN MILITARY PLANE CARRYING 74 PEOPLE, 65 OF THEM UKRAINIAN PRISONERS OF WAR, HAS CRASHED NEAR THE RUSSIAN UKRAINE BORDER. RUSSIAN STATE MEDIA REPORTS THE CAPTURED SOLDIERS WERE BEING TAKEN TO A PRISONER EXCHANGE. AND A REGIONAL GOVERNOR SAYS EVERYONE ON BOARD WAS KILLED.

UKRAINE HAS NOT CONFIRMED THE INCIDENT, NOR THAT A PRISONER EXCHANGE WAS PLANNED. A NEW U.S. AIRSTRIKES ARE TARGETING BACKED MILITIA GROUPS, THIS TIME IN IRAQ. TWO U.S. OFFICIALS SAY IT WAS IN RETALIATION FOR ATTACKS ON AMERICAN TROOPS OVER THE WEEKEND. NOW, IRAN IS WARNING OF THE DANGER OF A WIDER WAR.

ABC CHIEF GLOBAL AFFAIRS CORRESPONDENT MARTHA RADDATZ HAS THE LATEST. >> U.S. CENTRAL COMMAND ANNOUNCING ANOTHER STRIKE IN YEMEN TARGETING TWO HOUTHI ANTI-SHIP MISSILES POSING AN IMMINENT THREAT. THIS IS THE 10TH MILITARY AIR STRIKE IN THE REGION. A SEPARATE OPERATION TUESDAY TARGETED THREE SITES IN IRAQ, INCLUDING A STORAGE FACILITY, HOUSING, ARMED DRONES

AND MISSILES. >> THE STRIKES IN DIRECT RETALIATION FOR ATTACKS ON AMERICAN TROOPS OVER THE WEEKEND, INCLUDING AT THE AL-ASSAD AIR BASE, WHERE FOUR U.S. PERSONNEL SUFFERED TRAUMATIC BRAIN INJURIES. >> AND IN THE RED SEA, THE U.S. ALSO TRADING FIRE WITH THE IRAN BACKED HOUTHIS. IRAN’S FOREIGN MINISTER

PRAISING THE YEMENI REBELS ATTACKS ON COMMERCIAL VESSELS AND TARGETING OF U.S. NAVY SHIPS. HE CALLED THEM BRAVE, BUT DENYING EVIDENCE HIS COUNTRY IS SUPPLYING THE WEAPONS. >> THE PENTAGON SENT OUT PICTURES OF THOSE WEAPONS SHOWING THEY WERE FROM IRAN IN HALL. >> IT’S A SHOW THEY PUT ON TV.

HE CLAIMS AMERICAN OFFICIALS HAVE SENT MULTIPLE PRIVATE MESSAGES TO IRAN WARNING AGAINST ESCALATION. >> IS THERE A RED LINE FOR IRAN WHERE YOU ENTER A WAR WITH THE U.S.? >> SATURDAY, THE MINISTER SAYING THE DANGER OF A WIDER WAR HAS AND THAT THE THREAT WILL PERSIST AS LONG AS THE

U.S. STANDS BEHIND ISRAEL. THE FOREIGN MINISTER BLAMES THE WAR IN GAZA FOR ALL THESE MILITANT, BUT EXPECT THESE RETALIATORY STRIKES TO CONTINUE SINCE DETERRENCE HAS NOT YET WORKED. DIANE, CHIEF GLOBAL AFFAIRS CORRESPONDENT MARTHA RADDATZ, THANK YOU. AND BOEING IS NEW SCRUTINY ABOUT THE SAFETY OF ITS PASSENGER JETS. THE COMPANY’S CEO IS MEETING

THAT WARM AIR ON OF ALL THE COLD, 49% OF THE COUNTRY COVERED IN SNOW. WE’RE GOING TO SEE MORE OF THAT ADVECTION FOG THE NEXT COUPLE OF DAYS. SO WARM AIR ON TOP OF COLD ALWAYS MAKES THAT YOU’LL ALSO ON THE SOUTHERN PART OF THIS HAVE FLOOD WATCHES.

JOIN THE MOVEMENT FOR A MORE NEWS LITERATE AMERICA AMERICA. WELCOME BACK TO ABC NEWS LIVE. FIRST, THANKS FOR SHARING WITH US. YOU’RE LOOKING AT MANCHESTER, NEW HAMPSHIRE ON THIS WEDNESDAY AND WE HAVE A LOT OF NEWS TO GET TO. HERE’S A RUNDOWN RIGHT NOW. DANGEROUS WINTER WEATHER

IS TAKING AIM AT THE NORTHEAST STATES FROM PENNSYLVANIA TO MAINE NOW UNDER WINTER WEATHER ADVISORIES. MEANWHILE, PARTS OF EAST TEXAS UNDER FLASH FLOOD WARNINGS AFTER GETTING SIX INCHES OF RAIN IN ONE DAY. 16 OTHER STATES IN THE SOUTH ARE NOW UNDER FLOOD WATCHES AS HEAVY RAIN MELT SNOW FROM THEIR RECENT WINTER STORM.

JOHNSON JOHNSON SAYS IT’S REACHED A TENTATIVE SETTLEMENT OVER CLAIMS IT MISLED CONSUMERS ABOUT THE SAFETY OF ITS TALC BABY POWDER. THE COMPANY’S CFO SAYS IT WILL PAY $700 MILLION IN CLAIMS FROM 42 STATES. THE SETTLEMENT NOT APPLY TO THE TENS OF THOUSANDS OF CONSUMER LAWSUITS ALLEGING. THOSE PRODUCTS CAUSED CANCER.

SOME OF THOSE CASES ARE SCHEDULED TO GO TO TRIAL THIS YEAR. AND CONSERVATIONISTS ARE CELEBRATING A NEW FERTILITY BREAKTHROUGH THAT COULD SAVE THE NORTHERN WHITE RHINO FROM EXTINCTION. SCIENTISTS ANNOUNCED THEY’VE ACHIEVED THE WORLD’S FIRST IVF RHINO PREGNANCY, SAYING THEY TRANSFERRED A LAB, CREATED RHINO EMBRYO INTO, A SURROGATE MOTHER.

THE ONLY TWO REMAINING WHITE RHINOS ARE FEMALE AND MOTHER AND DAUGHTER. THE TWO ARE KEPT UNDER TIGHT SECURITY AT A CONSERVANCY IN KENYA. PLUS, CONGRATULATIONS ARE IN ORDER FOR THE BASEBALL HALL OF FAME’S CLASS OF 2024. FORMER MINNESOTA TWINS CATCHER AND FIRST BASEMAN JOE MAUER, FORMER COLORADO ROCKIES OUTFIELDER TODD HELTON

AND ADRIAN BELTRE ARE CONSIDERED ONE OF THE GREATEST THIRD BASEMAN IN BASEBALL HISTORY. WERE ELECTED BY THE BASEBALL WRITERS ASSOCIATION OF AMERICA ON TUESDAY. THEY WILL ALL BE INDUCTED JULY . >> FORMER PRESIDENT TRUMP IS ONE STEP CLOSER TO THE 2024 REPUBLICAN NOMINATION, A DOUBLE DIGIT VICTORY IN NEW HAMPSHIRE.

>> NIKKI HALEY CAME UP SHORT, BUT SHE’S VOWING TO STAY IN THE RACE AHEAD OF NEXT MONTH’S PRIMARY IN HER HOME STATE, SOUTH CAROLINA. THIS RACE IS FAR FROM OVER. THERE ARE DOZENS STATES LEFT TO GO. AND THE NEXT ONE IS MY SWING STATE OF SOUTH CAROLINA WITH DONALD TRUMP.

YOU HAVE ONE BOUT OF CHAOS AFTER ANOTHER. THIS COURT CASE CONTROVERSY, THIS TWEET, THAT SENIOR MOMENT. YOU CAN’T FIX JOE BIDEN’S CHAOS WITH REPUBLICAN CHAOS. ABC’S ZOHREEN SHAH IS IN MANCHESTER, NEW HAMPSHIRE WITH. MORE. ZIRIN HALEY’S VOWING TO KEEP CAMPAIGNING. SO WHAT MESSAGE IS SHE TRYING TO SEND AFTER THIS LOSS?

AND WITH THIS DETERMINATION TO STAY IN THIS RACE? DIANE, THREE WORDS. HELLO. SOUTH CAROLINA, I SAW ONE OF HER ADS AND THAT IS HOW SHE ENDED. SHE’S REMINDING THAT SHE’S FROM THERE, THAT SHE WON THERE TWICE AND SHE’S CONTINUING DRAW A CONTRAST BETWEEN BIDEN AND TRUMP SAYING SHE’S A NEW GENERATIONAL LEADER.

BUT LOOK, SHE HAD A DOUBLE DIGIT LOSS HERE LAST NIGHT, A LOSS BY ABOUT 12 POINTS. HER CAMPAIGN’S MESSAGING FOR US, THOUGH IS THAT THERE ARE SEVERAL OPEN PRIMARIES AND SEMI-OPEN PRIMARIES COMING ,AND THAT COULD BE FERTILE GROUND FOR HER. SHE HAD MORE SUPPORT THAN ANYWHERE IN THE STATE, ONLY GET

HARDER FOR HER GOING FORWARD. BUT I HEARD THIS PHRASE ON THE CAMPAIGN TRAIL ALL THE TIME THAT CAMPAIGNS ARE MADE UP OF BILLIONAIRES AND BROKE KIDS. AND AS LONG AS SHE HAS STUCK WITH HER, SHE’S GONE. AND YOU SPOKE TO MANY VOTERS LEADING UP TO THIS AND YOU SAY

YOU GOT THE SENSE THEY ALREADY KNEW THEY’LL LIKELY OUTCOME HERE. SO WHAT STOOD OUT TO YOU FROM THOSE CONVERSATIONS? YEAH, I REALLY FELT THAT. I MEAN, WE SPOKE TO A PANEL OF SIX INDEPENDENT VOTERS THIS WEEKEND. EVERY SINGLE PERSON THAT WE SPOKE TO SAID THAT PREDICTED THAT TRUMP WOULD BE THE NOMINEE.

LESSIG WOULD WIN LAST NIGHT IN THE SENATE, WOULD GO ON TO BE THE NOMINEE EVERY ONE TOLD ME THAT THEY WERE EXHAUSTED, INCLUDING ALL THE VOTERS I SPOKE TO YESTERDAY. AND MANY FEEL THEY’RE EXHAUSTED BECAUSE THEY’RE GOING TO SEE A REPEAT OF 2016. MANY SHARED FEARS THAT THE

CANDIDATE THAT THEY DON’T LIKE ,WHETHER IT’S BIDEN OR TRUMP, WILL ULTIMATELY WIN. PRESIDENT BIDEN WON THE DEMOCRATIC PRIMARY AND HE WASN’T EVEN ON THE BALLOT THERE. >> WALK US THROUGH HOW THIS WHOLE THING WENT DOWN OVER IN. >> IT WAS REALLY SOMETHING. DIANE, YOU HAD A LOT OF PEOPLE WRITING HIS NAME.

I MEAN, THIS IS THE FIRST TIME IN DECADES THAT A DEMOCRAT NOT ON THE BALLOT SINCE LBJ DECADES AGO WHEN HE WAS AN INCUMBENT. USUALLY WHEN DEMS ARE IN THE BATTLE, THEY GET AT LEAST 80% OF THE VOTES ARE STILL BEING COUNTED. BUT THE CAMPAIGN BIDEN’S CAMPAIGN DID DO A DROP WORK

THIS MORNING AND WORKS THROUGHOUT. THEY WROTE ON A SHIRT. TOGETHER, WE WILL DEFEAT TRUMP AGAIN. CLEARLY A FOR THE ADMINISTRATION THAT THEY ARE EXPECTING THAT REMATCH REGARDLESS WHAT NUMBERS THEY GET IN NEW HAMPSHIRE DIANE. ALL RIGHT, ZOHREEN SHAH IN NEW HAMPSHIRE, THANK YOU. AND ABC NEWS POLITICAL DIRECTOR

RICK KLEIN HAS A BREAKDOWN OF THE RESULTS IN THE NEW HAMPSHIRE PRIMARIES AND WHAT IT ALL MEANS FOR NIKKI HALEY AS WE LOOK AHEAD TO THE NEXT RACE. HI, RICK. DIANE, UNLIKE IN IOWA, WE SAW RECORD TURNOUT IN NEW HAMPSHIRE. >> WE’VE NEVER SEEN THIS MANY REPUBLICANS VOTE.

>> AND AS YOU CAN SEE, IT’S A BIT OF A SPLIT MAP. DONALD WON HANDILY, BUT NIKKI HALEY WON A WHOLE LOT OF SUBURBAN AREAS AND SOME OF THE HIGHER INCOME PARTS OF THE STATE BY THE SEA COAST. SO WE’VE KIND OF MADE FOR AN INTERESTING EVENING. AND WHAT’S EVEN

MORE INTERESTING IS, THE MAKEUP OF THE ELECTORATE. IT WAS A LOT DIFFERENT THAN IOWA, AND IT’S EVEN DIFFERENT THAN YOU TYPICALLY SEE IN NEW HAMPSHIRE. >> 46% OF REPUBLICAN PRIMARY VOTERS YESTERDAY WERE ACTUALLY INDEPENDENT, UNDECLARED. >> THAT SETS A NEW RECORD. IT WASN’T ENOUGH FOR NIKKI HALEY TO OVERCOME DONALD

TRUMP’S LEAD, BUT IT DOES POINT TO SOME POTENTIAL PROBLEM AREAS FOR FOR TRUMP MOVING FORWARD. THIS IS AN INTERESTING STATISTIC FOR ME AT. THE EXIT POLLS. 47% OF REPUBLICANS BELIEVE THAT JOE BIDEN LEGITIMATELY WON THE ELECTION. OF COURSE, THAT IS TRUE, THAT HE WON THE. BUT DONALD TRUMP SAYS IT ISN’T.

SO THIS IS SOME SKEPTICISM ON. A KEY TRUMP CLAIM. ANOTHER ANOTHER EXIT POLL THAT I THOUGHT WAS INTERESTING. 54% OF REPUBLICANS BELIEVE THAT DONALD TRUMP IS STILL FIT TO BE PRESIDENT IF HE IS CONVICTED OF A CRIME. >> BUT 42% SAY HE ISN’T. >> AND THAT’S A BIG NUMBER

THAT HAS TO BE TROUBLING IF YOU’RE DONALD TRUMP AND AN ISSUE THAT THE REPUBLICANS NATIONWIDE SCRAMBLING TO TRY TO ACCOUNT FOR. 67% OF NEW HAMPSHIRE PRIMARY VOTERS, REPUBLICAN PRIMARY VOTERS SAY THEY DON’T WANT SEE A NATIONWIDE BAN ON ABORTION AGAIN, MUCH DIFFERENT TWIST AS THIS RACE GOES FORWARD.

AND IF YOU TAKE A LOOK AT WHAT’S COMING UP FOR NIKKI HALEY, YOU BEGIN TO SEE HOW HARD THIS PATH REALLY IS. THERE ARE A LOT OF STATES THAT HAVEN’T VOTED YET, BUT THERE AREN’T A LOT OF PLACES WHERE SHE HAS A REAL OPPORTUNITY TO BREAK THROUGH

THE NEXT STATE UP THAT OF ANY SIGNIFICANCE IS NEVADA. BUT IT TURNS OUT SHE’S NOT EVEN ON THE BALLOT IN THE CAUCUSES THERE. SHE HAS NO SHOT AT ANY OF THOSE DELEGATES RIGHT AFTER THAT. HOT ON ITS HEELS, SOUTH CAROLINA. THAT IS NIKKI HALEY’S HOME STATE, BUT SHE’S TRAILING

BIG IN THE POLLS. SO THE CHALLENGE FOR HER, SHE TRULY HAS TO WIN IN SOUTH CAROLINA AND THEN MOVE FORWARD. >> IF SHE CAN GET TO SUPER TUESDAY, YOU START TO STATES LIKE NORTH CAROLINA AND VIRGINIA, MASSACHUSETTS, TEXAS, A LOT OF THOSE STATES HAVE HAVE OPEN PRIMARIES. THEY ALLOW INDEPENDENTS, EVEN

DEMOCRATS, TO VOTE. THAT IS GOT TO BE THE KEY TO NIKKI HALEY. IF SHE HAS ANY PATH LEFT IN THIS NOMINATION DIANE. >> ALL RIGHT. POLITICAL DIRECTOR RICK KLEIN, THANK YOU. AND FORMER PRESIDENT TRUMP AND NIKKI HALEY ARE NOW LOOKING TO THE SOUTH CAROLINA PRIMARIES ONE MONTH FROM TODAY ABC NEWS,

WHITE HOUSE CORRESPONDENT MARYALICE PARKS IS IN CHARLESTON, SOUTH CAROLINA, WITH MORE ON THAT. THIS IS NIKKI HALEY’S HOME STATE. SHE SERVED AS GOVERNOR THERE. SO HOW DO HER CHANCES LOOK NOW ? RIGHT NOW, DIANE, IN THE POLLING? IT IS TOUGH FOR HER. BUT YOU’RE RIGHT SHE WAS HERE

FOR AS A TWO TERM GOVERNOR AND A POPULAR ONE. SHE WAS REELECTED BY LARGE MARGINS. AND SHE HAS TALKED ABOUT HOW SHE GETS TO COME HOME TO HER HOME STATE. SHE’S FLYING BACK HERE TONIGHT HOLDING, A BIG RALLY. HER TEAM ALREADY UP WITH ADS, NEW ADS TODAY. LOOK, THE STATE OFFICIALS I’VE

TALKED TO SAY THIS IS GOING TO BE AN UPHILL CLIMB. TRUMP IS THE ONE WITH FIERCE, FIERCE LOYALTY. THEY’VE TOLD ME IT’S NOT REALLY NECESSARILY THAT PEOPLE DON’T LIKE HER AND THAT SHE HAS BEEN REALLY LIKED, BUT THAT THEY SENSE PEOPLE LOVE DONALD TRUMP HERE. WANT TO SEE IF SHE CHANGES

SOME OF HER CAMPAIGN TACTICS, HOW PEOPLE HERE RESPOND TO ANY NEW TRUMP ATTACKS AGAINST THEIR FORMER GOVERNOR AND WHETHER THAT CAN SHAKE UP THE RACE. BECAUSE I THINK THIS IS ABSOLUTELY A MAKE OR BREAK STATE FOR HER, DIANE, IT WOULD JUST BE TOO EMBARRASSING TO TO LOSE YOUR HOME STATE.

THIS IS ALSO THE FIRST OFFICIAL PRIMARY FOR DEMOCRATS MARYALICE AFTER THE DNC RESHUFFLE, THIS CALENDAR. SO WHAT ARE YOU WATCHING FOR THERE? SO INTERESTING THAT DEMOCRATS ARE PUTTING SO MUCH TIME AND ATTENTION INTO THIS STATE. YOU’RE RIGHT, IT WAS THEIR DECISION TO CHANGE THE CALENDAR AROUND TWO, ELEVATE SOUTH CAROLINA, TO GO

FIRST. AND WE’VE SEEN PRESIDENT BIDEN SPENDING A LOT OF TIME HERE. HE WAS HERE JUST A FEW WEEKS AGO. HE IS COMING BACK LATER THIS WEEK, BRINGING BIDEN, THE FIRST LADY, WITH HIM AS WELL. THEY HAVE STAFF HERE. THEY’RE POURING INTO THE STATE. INTERESTING FOR SOMEONE THAT DOESN’T HAVE A SERIOUS

PRIMARY CHALLENGER, I MEAN, HE’S A SITTING INCUMBENT PRESIDENT. THEIR TEAM SAYS THIS IS ABOUT HONORING THE BLACK VOTE, MAKING SURE THEY SHOW THE REST OF THE COUNTRY THAT BLACK VOTERS HERE IN SOUTH CAROLINA, A KEY PART OF DEMOCRATS BASE, ARE WITH HIM, ARE COMING OUT FOR HIM, THAT THAT MIGHT SEND MESSAGE

TO OTHER BLACK VOTERS AROUND THE COUNTRY. BUT I GOT TO TELL YOU, THERE’S A LOT DEMOCRATS WHO ARE ACTUALLY PRETTY SKEPTICAL ABOUT THIS STRATEGY. THEY SAY THE BIDEN CAMPAIGN SHOULD BE SPENDING MORE TIME ON MORE BATTLEGROUND STATES THAT MIGHT MUCH CLOSER IN A GENERAL ELECTION DIANE. ALL RIGHT. WHITE HOUSE CORRESPONDENT

AT ITS 737 PLANTS THURSDAY TO HOLD WORKING SESSIONS ON QUALITY CONTROL. >> ALTHOUGH BOEING CEO HAS SAID THE COMPANY IS GOING TO GET BETTER. AIRLINES ARE GROWING FRUSTRATED WITH DELAYS. UNITED SAYING ORDERS FOR THE MAX TEN ARE NOT CANCELED, BUT THE PLANE IS REMOVED FROM INTERNAL GROWTH PLANS.

ITS CFO SAYING THE MAX GROUNDING IS KIND OF THE STRAW THAT BROKE THE CAMEL’S BACK. >> WHAT YOU’RE SEEING NOW IS TREMENDOUS COOPERATION BETWEEN BOEING, THE AIRLINES AND THE NTSB, THE FAA. >> THEY’LL GET THE ANSWERS IF THESE BIRDS BACK IN THE AIR SAFELY, BUT IT WILL TAKE A COUPLE OF WEEKS.

MEANWHILE, BOEING CEO DAVE CALHOUN WILL MEET WITH ON CAPITOL HILL TODAY. WE’RE TOLD THAT THE MEETINGS WERE HIS REQUEST, BUT WITHOUT A DOUBT, THESE LAWMAKERS WILL HAVE TOUGH QUESTIONS FOR HIM AND. THE BOEING BRAND FACES A TOUGH ROAD AHEAD, NO QUESTION ABOUT IT. >> DIANE GIO BENITEZ AT NEWARK AIRPORT, THANK YOU.

AND IT’S TIME NOW FOR BUT TELL IT LIKE IT IS WHERE DR. ALOK PATEL SHARES HEALTH ADVICE ON THE TOPICS THAT MATTER MOST TO YOU. AND TODAY, WE’RE TALKING ABOUT THE RISKS. MARIJUANA. RECREATIONAL MARIJUANA USE FOR ANYONE UNDER 21 IS NOT LEGAL ANYWHERE IN THE UNITED STATES,

BUT TEENS ARE STILL USING IT. AND NEW STUDIES SHOW HOW DANGEROUS THE SIDE EFFECTS COULD BE FOR THEM. HERE’S DR. PATEL WITH WHAT YOU NEED TO KNOW. >> MORE PEOPLE, INCLUDING TEENS, ARE USING MARIJUANA AND THEN DEVELOPING EXTREME SYMPTOMS LIKE HALLUCINATIONS, BURNS, CONFUSION AND LOSING TOUCH WITH REALITY.

DID THAT GET YOUR ATTENTION? BECAUSE IT GOT MINE? DATA FROM A HEALTH CARE ANALYTICS FIRM SHOWS A LINK BETWEEN MARIJUANA USE AND PSYCHOSIS IN TEENS. IT ALSO SHOWS THAT EMERGENCY DEPARTMENT VISITS FOR CANNABIS USE DISORDER WENT UP 50% FROM 2019 TO 2020. AND IN 2023, NUMBERS ARE STILL HIGHER THAN THEY WERE

FOUR YEARS AGO. THERE ARE SEVERAL TYPES OF CANNABIS RELATED OR INDUCED DISORDERS, INCLUDING INTOXICATION, WITHDRAWAL, ANXIETY, DELIRIUM, SLEEP DISORDERS AND PSYCHOSIS AND PSYCHOSIS. THAT IS NOT A SAFE STATE TO BE IN, ESPECIALLY FOR TEENS WHO HAVE IT UNDERLYING MENTAL HEALTH CONDITION. I MEAN, THIS COULD INCREASE SOMEONE’S RISK OF INJURED OR

ATTEMPTING SUICIDE. NOW THAT MARIJUANA IS LEGALIZED FOR MEDICAL AND OR RECREATIONAL USE IN ABOUT 40 STATES AND OVER 50 MILLION PEOPLE ABOVE THE AGE OF 12 TRIED IT IN 2021. WE HAVE TO HAVE A CONVERSATION ABOUT SOME OF THE ADVERSE SIDE EFFECTS. AND PLUS, THE PLANT ITSELF HAS ACTUALLY CHANGED OVER THE PAST

YEARS. THE MOST PSYCHOACTIVE COMPONENT, DELTA NINE TETRAHEDRA CANNABIDIOL OR THC, IS ACTUALLY MORE CONCENTRATE NOW THAN IT USED TO BE IN THE NINETIES. THE CONCENTRATION OF THC CANNABIS WAS AROUND 4%. IN 2017, THAT NUMBER JUMPED UP TO 17%. AND MOVING BEYOND PLANTS TODAY ,CERTAIN OILS AND EDIBLES CAN

BE AS HIGH AS 90%. THC. SOME PEOPLE MAY NOT EVEN KNOW THIS WHEN THEY TRY THESE PRODUCTS. BOTTOM LINE, AS WEED CULTURE BECOMES MORE MAINSTREAM, PARENTS SHOULD DO TWO THINGS. HAD CONVERSATIONS WITH TEENS ABOUT THE DANGERS OF CONSUMPTION AND SAFELY STORE ANY CANNABIS PRODUCTS THAT ARE THE HOUSE AWAY FROM LITTLE

HANDS WHO MIGHT THINK IT’S CANDY. AND DR. ALOK PATEL JOINS ME NOW FOR MORE ON THIS DR. PATEL. NO WEED FOR TEENS. LOVE THE SIGN. IT’S A PRETTY CLEAR MESSAGE THERE. BUT TALK TO ME ABOUT THIS CANNABIS USE DISORDER. IS THERE AN ACTUAL DEFINITION FOR THAT?

AND WHAT ARE THE WARNING SIGNS ? >> DIANE, SIMPLY PUT, CANNABIS USE DISORDER IS ESSENTIALLY SOMEONE HAS TROUBLE CUTTING DOWN THEIR CANNABIS USE, EVEN IF THE EFFECTS OR THEIR CABIN IS INTERFERING WITH THEIR SOCIAL OR HOME, THEIR WORK LIFE OR THEIR HEALTH. >> AND THE CDC ESTIMATES THIS AFFECTS ABOUT THREE IN TEN

MARIJUANA USERS. NOW, THERE IS THIS PERCEPTION THAT MARIJUANA, BECAUSE IT’S ALL NATURAL, IT MAY HAVE LESS TOXIC EFFECTS. >> WE’RE NOT BY COMPARISON GAIN HERE WITH OTHER DRUGS, BUT MARIJUANA CAN ACTUALLY BE AND CAN AFFECT SOMEONE’S BRAIN, MENTAL HEALTH OR ATHLETIC PERFORMANCE. THEIR ABILITY, DRIVE AND SO FORTH.

SO IF ANYONE OUT THERE FEELS LIKE THEY’RE ADDICTED THEY HAVE SUBSTANCE USE DISORDER BECAUSE OF CANNABIS AND THEY WANT TO CUT DOWN AND SUPPORT, TALK TO A HEALTH CARE PROFESSIONAL. THERE ARE NO FDA APPROVED MEDICATIONS TO HELP WITH THIS, BUT METHODS SUCH AS TALK THERAPY AND COUNSELING CAN ABSOLUTELY HELP.

IS THERE A SENSE OF HOW MUCH THC THC IS TOO MUCH IN ABSOLUTE ABSOLUTELY? >> DEPENDS ON SOMEBODY’S TOLERANCE AGE. THEIR WEIGHT, AND THESE INDIVIDUAL FACTORS, WHEN IT COMES DOWN TO DETERMINING HOW MANY MILLIGRAMS OF THC CAN CAUSE A TOXIC EFFECT. >> BUT SOME STUDIES DO SUGGEST

THAT AS LITTLE AS 2 TO 3 MILLIGRAMS OF INHALED THC OR 5 TO 20 MILLIGRAMS OF INGESTED THC CAN SHOW TOXIC ADVERSE EFFECTS. >> AND THERE IS ONE STUDY IN CHILDREN SHOWING THAT A DOSE OF TWO MILLIGRAMS PER KILOGRAM OF INGESTED THC IS PREDICTIVE OF TOXICITY AND SOME SEVERE SYMPTOMS.

TO PUT THIS IN PERSPECTIVE, IF YOU HAVE A CHILD WHO WEIGHS ABOUT 30 KILOGRAMS OR £14, THAT’S ABOUT 28 MILLIGRAMS OF THC, WHICH IS NOT THAT HARD FOR A YOUNG CHILD TO INGEST IF THEY FIND A CAN OF GUMMIES, ESPECIALLY GIVEN THE FACT OF HOW CONCENTRATED THC NOW IS. AND SO MANY.

AND IN THIS STUDY, SOME KIDS EAT 10 TO 20 TIMES THAT AMOUNT. >> ANY PRACTICAL TIPS ON HOW PARENTS CAN DISCUSS THIS TOPIC WITH, THEIR TEENS AND WHAT TO LOOK OUT FOR? >> WELL, ONE OF THE MOST IMPORTANT THINGS YOU JUST MENTIONED IS DISCUSSING THIS WITH YOUR TEENS, REMINDING

TEENS OF THE HARMFUL EFFECTS OF INGESTING MARIJUANA, HOW IT CAN AFFECT THEIR DEVELOPMENT, THEIR ATHLETIC PERFORMANCE, THEIR HEALTH, REMINDING THAT IT IS NOT LEGAL ANYWHERE IN THE COUNTRY FOR TEENS TO INGEST OR USE MARIJUANA UNDER THE AGE OF 21. >> AND ALSO, WHEN IT COMES TO YOUNGER KIDS, IT’S SAFE

STORAGE IS KEY AND KEEPING ANY TYPE OF CANNABIS PRODUCTS AWAY FROM KIDS IN CHILD RESISTANT PACKAGING AND NOT FROM ANY OTHER FOOD SNACK. IT’S EXTREMELY IMPORTANT THAT PARENTS AWARE OF THIS, BECAUSE I WILL TELL YOU, AS A PEDIATRICIAN, I HAVE SEEN KIDS IN EMERGENCY DEPARTMENT OF INTOXICATION FROM EDIBLES.

>> WHETHER OR NOT THAT WAS INTENTIONAL OR NOT OR WITH SEVERE SYMPTOMS SUCH AS LOSS OF BALANCE, SLURRED SPEECH, NAUSEA, VOMITING, CARDIAC SYMPTOMS, MORE SO WHEN IN DOUBT, YOU WOULDN’T HAVE THOSE CONVERSATIONS, BUT YOU WANT TO SEEK EMERGENCY CARE OR CALL POISON CONTROL. >> IF YOU HAVE ANY. ANY THOUGHTS THAT CHILDREN

HAVE ACCIDENTALLY GOTTEN INTO SOME CANNABIS. >> ALL RIGHT, DR. PATEL GOOD ADVICE THERE. THANK YOU. AND DR. PATEL IS HERE TO TAKE YOUR QUESTIONS SO JUST LEAVE A MESSAGE ON OUR INSTAGRAM FEED AT ABC NEWS LIVE AND YOU MIGHT ANSWER YOUR QUESTION RIGHT HERE ON FRIDAY. A NATIONWIDE SHORTAGES ARE BEING REPORTED FOR

MEDICATIONS USED FOR WEIGHT LOSS LIKE WE GO THE AWESOME PICK AND MUNJAL TWO IN FIVE AMERICANS ARE CLASSIFIED AS OBESE AND FOR MANY THESE DRUGS HAVE BEEN REVOLUTIONARY. BUT HOW DO YOU KNOW IF THEY’LL WORK FOR YOU? ABC’S BECKY WORLEY IS LOOKING AT DIFFERENT OPTIONS FOR THOSE STRUGGLING TO REACH A HEALTHY

WEIGHT. >> STEPHANIE DAMORE OF WASHINGTON STATE SAYS WHEN SHE £260 SHE KNEW SOMETHING HAD TO CHANGE. >> I STARTED HAVING PROBLEMS WITH HIGH BLOOD PRESSURE PRE-DIABETES. >> AFTER YEARS OF TRYING DIET AND EXERCISE, SHE SAYS, NOTHING SEEMED TO HELP. >> I WAS FRUSTRATED, SUPER FRUSTRATED AND VERY

MISERABLE WITH EVERYTHING. >> SHE TALKED TO HER DOCTOR ABOUT GETTING ON MUNJAL, A DIABETES MEDICATION USED OFF LABEL BY SOME FOR WEIGHT LOSS. >> I’VE LOST £93 SINCE MARCH AND I FEEL ABSOLUTE AMAZING. >> THIS HONESTLY HAS BEEN A GODSEND. SINCE STEPHANIE MUNJAL, ANOTHER DRUG, ZAP, WHICH HAS THE SAME

ACTIVE INGREDIENT ZIPPER TIED, HAS BEEN APPROVED FOR WEIGHT LOSS. >> JOINING WOULD GO ME AN APPROVED WEIGHT LOSS INJECTABLE. >> WHAT WE’RE SEEING RIGHT NOW IS A HUGE REVOLUTION IN THE TREATMENT OF METABOLIC DISEASE. >> DR. LEWIS ARONEY IS AN OBESITY SPECIALIST AND, HELPS PATIENTS DETERMINE WHICH WEIGHT LOSS INTERVENTION IS RIGHT FOR

. >> I THINK PEOPLE WHO HAVE BEEN TRYING FOR YEARS TO LOSE WEIGHT AND HAVEN’T BEEN ABLE TO SUCCEED ARE EXCELLENT CANDIDATES FOR TREATMENT LIKE THIS. >> AND WHAT THEY WILL REALIZE IT’S NOT THEIR FAULT. THERE’S SOMETHING PHYSICAL THAT’S GOING ON IN THE BACKGROUND. >> HE SAYS CANDIDATES SHOULD

HAVE A BMI OF 30 OR IF THEY HAVE A PREEXISTING CONDITION, LIKE HIGH BLOOD PRESSURE, CHOLESTEROL. >> THEIR BMI CAN BE AS LOW AS 27. BUT HE ADDS, THESE DRUGS ARE NOT FOR EVERYONE. >> WHAT ABOUT PEOPLE WHO HAVE AN EXTRA TEN, £12 THAT THEY JUST WANT TO GET OFF QUICKLY?

THESE ARE NOT FOR THOSE PEOPLE. >> AND HE SAYS THERE ARE SOME PEOPLE HIGHER BMI, WHO ARE BETTER CANDIDATES FOR BARIATRIC SURGERY. >> WE SEE PATIENTS WHO DON’T RESPOND TO THESE MEDICINES. THEIR BRAINS WE BELIEVE, ARE RESISTANT TO EVEN THESE BRAND NEW ONES. WE’RE NOT SURE WHY THAT IS.

>> BUT FOR STEPHANIE, HER HEALTHIER WEIGHT, THANKS TO MEDICATIONS, HAS BEEN THE RIGHT FIT AND A WELCOME RELIEF. NOW SOME NEWS BREAKING ON THIS TOPIC. A NEW ANALYSIS FROM EPIC THAT LOOKED AT THE HEALTH RECORDS OF MORE THAN 20,000 PEOPLE TAKING SOME TIME HAS SHOWN MANY PEOPLE AVOID REGAINING AFTER STOPPING

THE DRUGS. IN THE EPIC STUDY, OVER HALF OF PATIENTS THEIR WEIGHT LOSS, EVEN A YEAR AFTER DISCONTINUING THE MEDICATION, ONLY ABOUT 18% OF PEOPLE REGAINED ALL THE WEIGHT THEY HAD LOST. NOW. THIS IS ENCOURAGING FOR PEOPLE TAKING SEMAGLUTIDE, ESPECIALLY LIGHT OF PRIOR WARNINGS ABOUT WEIGHT REGAIN AND SOME PEOPLE STOP TAKING DRUG.

>> EVERYBODY IS DIFFERENT AND DOCTORS ARE STILL LEARNING HOW RESPOND TO THESE TYPES OF DRUGS. >> DIANE, IT’S SO IMPORTANT TO TALK TO YOUR DOCTOR THAT. BECKY WORLEY, THANK YOU. COMING UP, THE BARBIE BACKLASH ,HOW THE MOVIE’S FANS AND CAST ARE REACTING TO. MARGOT ROBBIE AND GRETA GERWIG BEING LEFT OUT OF THE

NOMINATIONS RIGHT. >> WE CAN CHANGE THE COURSE HISTORY, FIGHT AGAINST OPPRESSION BY ANY MEANS NECESSARY. BROTHERS AND SISTERS, ARE YOU READY? YOU MUST BE IN THE GAME. THIS IS OUR REALITY NOW. STATE POLICE. THERE’S A YOUNG GIRL RUNNING AROUND HERE SCREAMING, AND THERE WAS SOME GUY TRYING TO FOLLOW HER.

>> REPORTING FROM THE SCENE OF THE DEADLY MEDICAL CENTER SHOOTING HERE IN ATLANTA. I’M STEVE OSUNSAMI WHEREVER THE STORY IS WE’LL TAKEN THERE WAS STREAMING ABC NEWS LIVE. WELCOME BACK. REACTIONS ARE POURING IN AFTER YESTERDAY’S OSCAR NOMINATIONS, ESPECIALLY TO TWO NOTABLE ABSENCES. DESPITE BARBIE’S INCREDIBLE YEAR, GRETA GERWIG WAS NOT

NOMINATED THE DIRECTOR CATEGORY AND MARGOT ROBBIE GOT NO NOMINATION FOR LEAD ACTRESS . NOW NOMINATED COSTARS RYAN GOSLING AND AMERICA FERRERA ARE RESPONDING. >> LARA SPENCER HAS MORE OFFER AND CONFUSION IN HOLLYWOOD OVER A MAJOR OSCAR SNUB. >> HI, BARBIE. >> BARBIE SCORING EIGHT NOMINATIONS. AND IT TURNS OUT, IN FACT,

THAT NOT ARE YOU DOING EVERYTHING WRONG, BUT ALSO EVERYTHING IS YOUR FAULT INCLUDING BEST SUPPORTING ACTRESS FOR AMERICA FERRERA AND SUPPORTING ACTOR FOR RYAN GOSLING. THE MOVIE ALSO GETTING BEST PICTURE NOD, BUT LEFT OUT THE BILLION DOLLAR BLOCKBUSTER STAR MARGOT ROBBIE FOR BEST ACTRESS AND GRETA GERWIG FOR DIRECTING.

>> I THINK THAT’S THE NAME THAT EVERYONE HAS ON THEIR LIVES IS NOT BARBIE AND GRETA GERWIG. GRETA DID GET NOMINATED FOR ADAPTED SCREENPLAY, BUT SHE WAS SNUBBED IN BEST DIRECTOR, WHICH MANY PEOPLE, ALL INCLUDING MYSELF, THOUGHT THAT SHE WAS GOING TO BE A SHOO IN FOR. >> FANS UPSET.

>> HOW DOES CAN GET AN OSCAR NOMINATION FOR BARBIE BUT BARBIE DOESN’T GET AN OSCAR NOMINATION FOR BARBIE. >> YOU SCRIPTED THIS SCENARIO. >> NO ONE WOULD EVER BELIEVE YOU AND. GOSLING RELEASING A STATEMENT SAYING, QUOTE, THERE IS NO CANNES WITHOUT BARBIE AND THERE IS NO “BARBIE” MOVIE WITHOUT

GRETA GERWIG AND MARGOT ROBBIE . TO SAY THAT I’M DISAPPOINTED THAT THEY ARE NOT NOMINATED IN THEIR RESPECTIVE CATEGORIES WOULD BE AN UNDERSTATEMENT. AND IT’S LITERALLY IMPOSSIBLE TO BE A WOMAN. THE NOMINATIONS FOR EACH CATEGORY, THOUGH, DETERMINED BY THOSE WHO ARE MEMBERS OF IT . MANY ACTORS VOTE FOR ACTORS

AND DIRECTORS DETERMINE. >> WHO GETS THE DIRECTING NODS. THE DIRECTORS BRANCH IS A LOT SMALLER THAN THE ACTORS BRANCH. >> IT DOES MEAN MUCH MORE MALE AND AN OLDER GROUP OF VOTERS. >> BUT EXPERTS SAY THE SNUB COULD END UP PLAYING TO BARBIE’S ADVANTAGE WHEN IT COMES TO THE BEST PICTURE.

>> ANYTHING CAN HAPPEN. ATTITUDES CAN CHANGE. PEOPLE CAN, YOU KNOW, RALLY BEHIND A FILM IF THEY THINK THAT IT’S KIND OF LAGGING BEHIND OTHERS. SO THIS IS DEFINITELY SOMETHING THAT THE AWARDS STRATEGISTS BEHIND BARBIE OR ANY OTHER FILMS FOR THAT MATTER, WILL PROBABLY CONSIDER AND TRY TO TAKE ADVANTAGE OF.

FIRST, TRUMP TAKES NEW HAMPSHIRE. THE DECISIVE WIN PUTS THE FORMER PRESIDENT ON TRACK FOR HIS THIRD STRAIGHT GOP NOMINATION. BUT NIKKI HALEY’S PROMISING TO KEEP FIGHTING AS PRESIDENT BIDEN GEARS UP FOR THE GENERAL ELECTION. OUR TEAM BREAKS DOWN THE STATE OF THE RACE. NEW U.S. AIRSTRIKES IN IRAQ. OFFICIALS SAY THE ATTACKS

TARGETED IRAN BACKED MILITIA GROUPS IN RETALIATION FOR ATTACKS ON AMERICAN TROOPS OVER THE WEEKEND. WHAT’S AT STAKE AS IRAN’S FOREIGN MINISTER WARNS OF THE DANGER OF A WIDER WAR. THE CONSUMER ALERT ABOUT PAYMENT APPS. WHY A TOP DISTRICT ATTORNEY SAYS VENMO, ZELLE AND CASH APP ARE LEAVING USERS

AT RISK OF FRAUD. AND A SWEET AIRPLANE SURPRISE GOING VIRAL. WHY IS ACT OF KINDNESS FOR FIRST TIME PARENTS? IS WARMING AROUND THE WORLD. BUT WE BEGIN WITH FORMER PRESIDENT TRUMP ONE STEP CLOSER TO THE 2024 REPUBLICAN NOMINATION AFTER DOUBLE DIGIT WIN IN NEW HAMPSHIRE. >> NIKKI HALEY CAME UP

SHORT BUT IS VOWING STAY IN THE RACE AHEAD OF NEXT MONTH’S PRIMARY IN HER HOME STATE OF SOUTH CAROLINA. MEANWHILE, PRESIDENT BIDEN WON THE DEMOCRATIC NEW HAMPSHIRE PRIMARY EVEN THOUGH HE WASN’T ON THE BALLOT. ABC NEWS SENIOR CONGRESSIONAL CORRESPONDENT RACHEL SCOTT HAS THE LATEST FROM MANCHESTER.

>> DONALD TRUMP WITH A DECISIVE VICTORY IN THE FIRST IN THE NATION PRIMARY, DEFEATING HIS FORMER U.N. AMBASSADOR NIKKI HALEY BY MORE THAN 11 POINTS IN NEW HAMPSHIRE. SHE DID VERY POORLY, ACTUALLY. SHE HAD TO WIN. THE GOVERNOR SAID SHE’S GOING TO WIN. SHE’S GOING TO WIN. SHE’S GOING TO WIN.

THEN SHE SHE FAILED BADLY. >> TRUMP NOW BARRELING TOWARD THE REPUBLICAN NOMINATION, SHARING THE STAGE. >> TWO OF HIS FORMER RIVALS CALLING ON THE PARTY TO UNIFY AROUND HIM. IT IS TIME FOR THE REPUBLICAN PARTY TO COALESCE AROUND OUR NOMINEE AND THE NEXT PRESIDENT OF THE UNITED STATES, DONALD TRUMP.

>> BUT HALEY REJECTED THAT, VOWING PRESS ON THIS RACE IS FAR FROM OVER. >> THERE DOZENS OF STATES LEFT TO GO, AND THE NEXT IS MY SWING STATE OF SOUTH CAROLINA. >> THE FORMER SOUTH CAROLINA GOVERNOR STAKED HER CAMPAIGN ON A STRONG SHOWING HERE, HOPING INDEPENDENTS WOULD HELP

HER PULL OFF A MAJOR UPSET. >> IF YOUR COMPANY WANTS TO STAY OUT AND WE’RE EXCITED. I MEAN, THIS IS ELECTION DAY. >> IT’S ALL ABOUT HALEY ARGUING. SHE’S THE LAST PERSON STANDING BETWEEN A TRUMP BIDEN REMATCH WITH DONALD TRUMP. YOU HAD ONE BOUT OF CHAOS AFTER ANOTHER. THIS COURT CASE,

THAT CONTROVERSY, THIS TWEET THAT SENIOR MOMENT. YOU CAN’T FIX JOE BIDEN’S CHAOS WITH REPUBLICAN CHAOS. >> AFTER TWO DISAPPOINTING LOSSES IN IOWA AND NEW HAMPSHIRE, HALEY’S PATH TO THE NOMINATION IS ONLY GROWING MORE DIFFICULT. AND SHE’S UP AGAINST HISTORY. NO REPUBLICAN CANDIDATE HAS EVER WON THE FIRST TWO STATES

AND WENT ON TO LOSE THE NOMINATION. >> WHEN YOU WIN IOWA AND YOU WIN NEW HAMPSHIRE, THEY’VE NEVER HAD A LOSS. THERE’S NEVER BEEN. SO WE’RE NOT GOING TO BE THE FIRST. I CAN TELL YOU. HOURS EARLIER, WHEN I ASKED TRUMP ABOUT HALEY STAYING IN THE RACE, HE INSISTED HE WASN’T THAT CONCERNED.

>> MR.. IN SUPER TUESDAY. IS SHE A THREAT TO YOU? NO. AND I DON’T CARE TO DO WHATEVER SHE WANTS. IT DOESN’T. >> BUT ONCE SHE REFUSED TO DROP OUT AFTER HIS WIN, HE LASHED, CALLING HER DELUSIONAL. >> AND WHEN I WATCHED HER IN THE FANCY DRESS, THAT PROBABLY

WASN’T SO FANCY COMING UP, I WHAT SHE DOING? >> WE WON. BUT I DON’T GET TOO ANGRY. I GET EVEN. DIANE TRUMP’S SPEECH WAS LIGHT ON THE POLICY HEAVY ON THE PERSONAL ATTACKS AND GRIEVANCES. THE FORMER PRESIDENT MAKING FALSE CLAIMS ABOUT EVERYTHING FROM THE 2020 ELECTION TO DEMOCRATIC POLICIES TO COULD

ACTUALLY VOTE IN THE NEW HAMPSHIRE REPUBLICAN PRIMARY. >> THE HALEY CAMPAIGN WATCHING THAT SPEECH CLOSELY, ISSUING A STATEMENT CALLING IT AN ANGRY RANT, SAYING THE FORMER PRESIDENT OFFERED NOTHING TO THE AMERICAN PEOPLE ABOUT HIS VISION FOR THE FUTURE OF THE COUNTRY DIANE. >> ALL RIGHT. SENIOR CONGRESSIONAL CORRESPONDENT RACHEL SCOTT, THANK YOU.

AND HOST OF THE FIVETHIRTYEIGHT POLITICS PODCAST GALEN DRUKE JOINS ME NOW. KAITLYN, WHAT DOES HALEY’S LOSS IN NEW HAMPSHIRE TELL YOU ABOUT HER CHANCES, THE UPCOMING PRIMARIES, ESPECIALLY SOUTH CAROLINA, HER HOME STATE? >> SHE SERVED AS GOVERNOR? YEAH, DIANE, IF NIKKI HALEY CAN’T WIN IN NEW HAMPSHIRE, SHE LIKELY CAN’T WIN ANYWHERE.

AND I KNOW THAT FOLKS BE SAYING WE’VE ONLY SEEN TWO CONTESTS SO FAR. WE’VE GOT 48 MORE TO GO. HOW CAN YOU SAY THAT? WE HAVE A DIPLOMA IN AMERICA, WHICH MEANS THAT WHETHER OR NOT YOU HAVE A FOUR YEAR COLLEGE DEGREE IS SOME SORT OF INDICATION OF HOW YOU VIEW

THE WORLD OF POLITICS, HOW YOU END UP VOTING. AND NEW HAMPSHIRE IS ON THE SIDE OF THAT DIPLOMA DIVIDE OF A VERY COLLEGE EDUCATED ELECTORATE. THAT’S ALSO THE GROUP OF VOTERS THAT NIKKI HALEY DOES REALLY WELL WITH. I MEAN, IF WERE TRYING TO DEVISE THE BEST POSSIBLE STATE DEMOGRAPHICALLY FOR NIKKI

HALEY, IT MIGHT WELL BE NEW HAMPSHIRE. >> AND SHE DID GET, YOU KNOW, WITHIN ABOUT TEN POINTS. THAT’S BETTER THAN WE EXPECT HER TO GET REALLY ANYWHERE ELSE. BUT THAT’S IN LARGE PART WHITE ,FOLKS ARE SAYING IS NIKKI HALEY CAN’T PERFORM IN A PLACE WHERE ALL OF THESE UNDECLARED

VOTERS CAN JOIN IN WHERE THERE’S A LARGE, COLLEGE EDUCATED POPULATION. YOU KNOW, THINK OF THOSE TOWNS ALONG THE SEACOAST WITH COUNTRY CLUBS, THE ANCESTRAL REPUBLICAN BASE. THOSE ARE THE KINDS PEOPLE WHO TURNED OUT FOR NIKKI HALEY, BUT THEY WEREN’T ENOUGH TO GET HER OVER THE OVER THE BUMP.

NOW, NEVADA IS NEXT, BUT BOTH CANDIDATES ARE FOCUSED ON SOUTH CAROLINA. >> WHY? WELL, YOU KNOW, THESE PRIMARIES CAN BE FICKLE. FOR EXAMPLE, AS YOU SAID, JOE BIDEN WON A PRIMARY, BUT HE WASN’T EVEN ON THE BALLOT FOR. AND SO WHEN IT COMES TO NEVADA, NIKKI HALEY IS COMPETING IN THE

PRIMARY THAT AWARDS DELEGATES. AND DONALD TRUMP IS THE ONLY PERSON COMPETING IN THE CAUCUS WHICH AWARDS ALL OF THE DELEGATES. NOW, PEOPLE CAN MAKE ACCUSATIONS ABOUT WHY IT ENDED UP THIS WAY. THERE’S PERHAPS A CHANCE THAT NIKKI DIDN’T SEE HERSELF PERFORMING WELL IN THAT CAUCUS. SO SAID, I’D RATHER TRY TO GET

A MORAL VICTORY IN A PRIMARY. BUT WE’RE NOW AT A POINT WHERE I THINK ANYONE’S GOING TO BE PAYING MUCH ATTENTION AT ALL TO NEVADA. SO WHAT STANDS OUT FROM THE EXIT POLLS FROM NEW HAMPSHIRE, WHAT DO THEY TELL YOU ABOUT THIS RACE LOOKS GOING FORWARD? >> YEAH, AND IF I CAN, THIS

MIGHT BE WHERE I TURN A LITTLE BIT TO THE GENERAL ELECTION. YOU KNOW IF THINGS PLAY OUT AS WE EXPECT, WHILE THE PRIMARY IS NOT TECHNICALLY OVER IN MANY WAYS STARTING TO TURN OUR FOCUS TOWARDS A TRUMP BIDEN MATCH. AND WHAT I SAW IN THE EXIT POLLS LAST NIGHT WAS, I THINK,

INDICATIVE OF HOW OF AN IMPORTANT INDICATOR IN THE 2024 ELECTION, WHICH IS THIS THE TRUMP THE WHO VOTED FOR TRUMP WERE VERY ENTHUSIASTIC IN THE EXIT POLLS. THE FOLKS WHO FOR NIKKI HALEY WERE LESS ENTHUSIASTIC. >> AND I THINK THAT GROUP OF VOTERS THAT IS NOT NECESSARILY FOR HALEY,

BUT THEY’RE TURNING OUT ANYWAY ARE FOLKS WHO ARE LOOKING FOR AN ALTERNATIVE TO BIDEN AND TRUMP. >> WE KNOW FROM POLLS, ABOUT 60% OF AMERICANS DON’T WANT TRUMP TO RUN AGAIN. ABOUT 60% OF AMERICANS DON’T WANT BIDEN TO RUN AGAIN. NEW HAMPSHIRITES HAD AN ALTERNATIVE LAST NIGHT. THEY HAD NIKKI HALEY.

AND WE SAW FOLKS TURN OUT, EVEN IF THEY WEREN’T SUPER ENTHUSIASTIC TO THAT ALTERNATIVE. AS WE GO FORWARD INTO THE GENERAL ELECTION, AMERICAN MANY AMERICANS WILL NOT HAVE THAT ALTERNATIVE. THEY WILL HAVE TO EITHER CHOOSE BETWEEN BIDEN AND TRUMP, NOT VOTE OR VOTE. THIRD PARTY. AND HOW THAT SORT OF MIDDLE

SEGMENT OF THE ELECTORATE DOESN’T PARTICULARLY LIKE TRUMP AND DOESN’T PARTICULARLY LIKE BIDEN VOTES 2024 COULD GO A LONG WAY TO DETERMINING WHO ULTIMATELY WINS IN NOVEMBER. >> BIG QUESTION MARK OVER THAT GROUP. SO WHAT ARE YOU WATCHING AS WE LOOK AHEAD TO SOUTH CAROLINA? >> YOU KNOW, I’M WATCHING FOR

WHAT NIKKI HALEY DOES. CANDIDATES SAY A LOT THINGS WHEN THEY’RE ON THE CAMPAIGN TRAIL, LIKE RON DESANTIS, WHO SUGGESTED THAT HE WAS GOING TO STAY IN THE RACE AFTER HE CAME IN SECOND IN IOWA. NIKKI HALEY SUGGESTED THE SAME LAST NIGHT. SHE SAID, I’M GOING HOME TO SWEET SOUTH CAROLINA.

THERE’S A MONTH BEFORE SOUTH CAROLINA VOTES. AND WHAT I EXPECT WILL HAPPEN, SHE’S GOING TO GO CAMPAIGN IN SOUTH CAROLINA THE WAY SHE DID IN NEW HAMPSHIRE FROM TOWN TO TOWN TO TOWN, DO A LOT OF HANDSHAKING, BABY KISSING AND SO ON. AND SHE’S GOING TO SEE IF THOSE

POLLS MOVE BECAUSE RIGHT NOW SHE’S ALMOST 40 POINTS BEHIND DONALD TRUMP IN HER HOME STATE. AND I WOULD SAY IF IN A COUPLE OF WEEKS WE DON’T SEE THOSE POLLS MOV FOR THE FUTURE OF YOUR POLITICAL CAREER. YOU DON’T WANT TO PERFORM POORLY IN YOUR HOME STATE

TO THE TUNE OF MAYBE EVEN PERCENTAGE POINTS. >> RIGHT. ALL RIGHT. HOST OF THE FIVETHIRTYEIGHT POLITICS PODCAST, CALENDAR OF THANKSGIVING. >> AND ALWAYS GREAT TO GET YOUR ANALYSIS ON THESE THINGS. THANK YOU. ALWAYS TO CHAT. >> MEANWHILE, NEW U.S. AIRSTRIKES ARE TARGETING IRAN BACKED MILITIA GROUPS, THIS TIME IN IRAQ.

TWO U.S. OFFICIALS SAY IT WAS IN RETALIATION FOR ATTACKS ON AMERICAN TROOPS OVER WEEKEND. NOW, IRAN IS WARNING OF THE DANGER OF A WIDER WAR. ABC CHIEF GLOBAL AFFAIRS CORRESPONDENT MARTHA RADDATZ HAS THE LATEST. U.S. CENTRAL COMMAND ANNOUNCING ANOTHER STRIKE IN YEMEN TARGETING TO HOUSE THE ANTI-SHIP MISSILES, POSING IMMINENT THREAT.

THIS IS THE 10TH MILITARY AIRSTRIKE IN THE REGION. >> A SEPARATE OPERATION TUESDAY TARGETED THREE SITES IN IRAQ, INCLUDING A WEAPONS STORAGE FACILITY, HOUSING, ARMED DRONES AND MISSILES. THE STRIKES DIRECT RETALIATION FOR ATTACKS ON AMERICAN TROOPS OVER THE WEEKEND, INCLUDING AT THE AL-ASSAD AIR BASE, WHERE FOUR U.S. PERSONNEL SUFFERED

TRAUMATIC BRAIN INJURIES. >> AND IN THE RED SEA, THE U.S. ALSO TRADING FIRE WITH THE IRAN BACKED HOUTHIS. IRAN’S FOREIGN MINISTER PRAISING THE YEMENI REBELS ATTACKS COMMERCIAL VESSELS AND TARGETING OF U.S. NAVY SHIPS. HE CALLED THEM BRAVE, BUT DENYING EVIDENCE HIS COUNTRY IS SUPPLYING THE WEAPONS. >> THE PENTAGON SENT OUT

PICTURES OF THOSE WEAPONS SHOWING THEY WERE FROM IRAN. >> IN THE HALL. IT’S A SHOW THEY PUT ON TV. HE CLAIMS AMERICAN OFFICIALS HAVE SENT MULTIPLE PRIVATE MESSAGES TO IRAN WARNING AGAINST ESCALATION. >> IS THERE A RED LINE FOR IRAN WHERE YOU WOULD ENTER A WAR WITH THE U.S.?

>> SATURDAY, THE MINISTER SAYING THE DANGER OF A WIDER WAR HAS INCREASED AND THAT THE THREAT WILL PERSIST AS LONG AS U.S. STANDS BEHIND ISRAEL. THE FOREIGN MINISTER BLAMED THE WAR IN GAZA FOR ALL THESE MILITANT ATTACKS, BUT EXPECT THESE RETALIATORY STRIKES TO CONTINUE SINCE DETERRENCE HAS NOT YET WORKED. DIANE. ALL RIGHT.

YOU GLOBAL AFFAIRS CORRESPONDENT MARTHA RADDATZ. THANK YOU. AND THE CEO OF BOEING IS HEADING TO CAPITOL HILL TODAY TO MEET WITH LAWMAKERS AMID GROWING SAFETY CONCERNS. MEETING COMES AS THE FAA NOW SAYS IT IS INVESTIGATING AFTER A WHEEL FELL A DELTA PLANE OVER THE WEEKEND JUST BEFORE TAKEOFF IN ATLANTA.

ALASKA AIRLINES ALSO SAYS IT FOUND MORE LOOSE ON DOOR PLUGS ,INSPECTING 737 MAX, NINE PLANES AFTER A DOOR PLUG OFF MID-FLIGHT EARLIER THIS MONTH. THE FAA IS ALSO RECOMMENDING MORE INSPECTIONS OF DOOR PLUGS ON A DIFFERENT 737 MODEL. BOEING SAYS IT WILL PAUSE MANUFACTURING ON THURSDAY AT THE PLANT THAT MAKES 737

PLANES TO WORK ON QUALITY CONTROL. >> AND IT’S TIME NOW FOR WORLDVIEW, WHERE WE BRING YOU THE LATEST INTERNATIONAL HEADLINES FOR A MONSTER WAVE IN THE MARSHALL ISLANDS TO MEXICO’S FIGHT AGAINST GUN VIOLENCE AND UNREST IN HAITI. OUR FOREIGN CORRESPONDENTS ARE TRACKING THE BIGGEST STORIES FROM AROUND THE WORLD

ON BRITT CLENNETT IN HONG KONG. THE DESTRUCTION LEFT BY A SERIES OF GIGANTIC AND UNEXPECTED WAVES THAT SWAMPED MARSHALL ISLANDS IN THE SOUTH PACIFIC IS EXPECTED TO TAKE MONTHS TO REPAIR. DRAMATIC VIDEO CAPTURES THE MOMENT A WALL OF WATER SUDDENLY COMES RUSHING INTO A U.S. MILITARY FACILITY,

SMASHING INTO THE DOORS OF THE DINING AND SENDING FURNITURE SURGING. A SECOND WAVE INUNDATING, THE ROOM TAKING OUT THE WINDOWS. PEOPLE THERE SCRAMBLING TO EVACUATE. MINOR INJURIES REPORTED, BUT THE WAVES DID SERIOUS DAMAGE. SEVERAL LOCATIONS IN THE NORTHERN IRELAND OF ROY MOORE. ACCORDING TO THE U.S. ARMY.

NOW, THIS IS AN IMPORTANT BASE HOME TO THE MILITARY SPACE TRACKING EQUIPMENT. BUT THE MARSHALL ISLANDS ARE CONSIDERED VERY MUCH AT THE FRONTLINES OF CLIMATE CHANGE, WITH RESEARCH SHOWING THAT RISING SEA LEVELS CONTRIBUTE TO POWERFUL, DESTRUCTIVE WAVES AND MORE SEVERE FLOODING IN COASTAL AREAS.

>> I’M MATT RIVERS IN MEXICO CITY. A FEW YEARS AGO. MEXICO’S GOVERNMENT DID WHAT IT SAID, A HISTORIC STEP. THE FIRST COUNTRY THAT WOULD SOON U.S. BASED GUN MANUFACTURERS AND A DISTRIBUTOR FOR WHAT MEXICO CLAIMS. ARE THOSE COMPANIES ROLLED, OR AT LEAST IN PART THE ONGOING CARTEL VIOLENCE HERE IN MEXICO.

BACK IN 2022, A U.S. DISTRICT COURT THREW OUT THAT LAWSUIT CLAIMING THAT MEXICO DIDN’T HAVE STANDING TO SUE. BUT IN A WIN THIS WEEK FOR MEXICO, THE FIRST U.S. COURT OF APPEALS OUT OF MASSACHUSETTS RULED THAT MEXICO DID, IN FACT, HAVE THE RIGHT TO SUE, SENDING THAT CASE BACK DOWN TO THE

LOWER COURT FOR PROCEEDINGS TO CONTINUE. MEANWHILE, MEXICO ALSO DEMANDING U.S. INVESTIGATE HOW WEAPONS THAT IT SAYS WERE DESIGNATED FOR U.S. MILITARY USE. ONLY HAVE BEEN FOUND RECENTLY. DIANE, AT CARTEL RELATED CRIME SCENES HERE IN THE COUNTRY. >> AND MATT, MEANWHILE, HAITI IS FACING ESCALATING VIOLENCE. WHAT’S THE LATEST THERE?

WELCOME BACK TO ABC NEWS LIVE. FIRST, THANKS FOR STREAMING WITH US. YOU’RE LOOKING AT MANCHESTER, NEW HAMPSHIRE ON THIS WEDNESDAY. AND WE HAVE A LOT OF NEWS TO GET TO. HERE’S THE RUNDOWN RIGHT NOW. DANGEROUS WINTER WEATHER IS TAKING AIM AT THE NORTHEAST STATES FROM PENNSYLVANIA TO ARE NOW UNDER WINTER WEATHER ADVISORIES.

MEANWHILE, PARTS OF EAST ARE UNDER FLASH FLOOD WARNINGS AFTER GETTING SIX INCHES OF RAIN IN ONE DAY. 16 OTHER STATES IN THE SOUTH ARE NOW UNDER FLOOD WATCHES AS HEAVY RAIN MELT SNOW FROM THEIR RECENT WINTER STORM. JOHNSON JOHNSON SAYS IT’S REACHED A TENTATIVE SETTLEMENT, CLAIMS IT MISLED CONSUMERS ABOUT THE SAFETY

OF ITS TALC. BABY POWDER. THE COMPANY’S CFO SAYS IT WILL PAY $700 MILLION IN CLAIMS FROM 42 STATES. THE SETTLEMENT DOES NOT APPLY TO THE TENS OF THOUSANDS OF CONSUMER LAWSUITS ALLEGING THOSE PRODUCTS CAUSED CANCER. SOME OF THOSE CASES ARE SCHEDULED TO GO TO TRIAL THIS YEAR. JOHNSON JOHNSON HAS MAINTAINED

ITS TALC BASED POWDERS, ARE SAFE AND DID NOT CAUSE CANCER, BUT NO LONGER SELLS THE PRODUCTS. AND CONSERVATIONISTS ARE CELEBRATING A NEW FERTILITY THAT COULD SAVE THE NORTHERN WHITE RHINO FROM EXTINCTION. SCIENTISTS ANNOUNCED THEY’VE ACHIEVED THE WORLD’S FIRST IVF RHINO PREGNANCY, SAYING THEY TRANSFERRED A LAB, CREATED

EMBRYO INTO A SURROGATE MOTHER. THE ONLY TWO REMAINING WHITE RHINOS ARE FEMALE, A MOTHER AND DAUGHTER. THE TWO ARE KEPT UNDER TIGHT SECURITY AT A CONSERVANCY IN KENYA. PLUS, CONGRATULATIONS ARE IN ORDER FOR BASEBALL HALL OF FAME’S CLASS OF 2024. FORMER MINNESOTA TWINS CATCHER JOE MAAS, FORMER COLORADO ROCKIES FIRST BASEMAN

TODD HELTON AND ADRIAN BELTRE ARE CONSIDERED ONE OF THE GREATEST THIRD BASEMAN IN BASEBALL HISTORY. WERE ELECTED THE BASEBALL WRITERS ASSOCIATION OF AMERICA ON TUESDAY. IT WILL ALL BE INDUCTED IN JULY . FORMER PRESIDENT TRUMP IS ONE STEP CLOSER TO THE 2024 REPUBLICAN NOMINATION, WITH A DOUBLE DIGIT VICTORY IN NEW HAMPSHIRE.

NIKKI HALEY CAME UP SHORT, BUT SHE’S VOWING TO STAY IN THE RACE AHEAD OF NEXT MONTH’S PRIMARY IN HER HOME STATE OF SOUTH CAROLINA. THIS RACE IS FAR FROM OVER. THERE ARE DOZENS OF STATES LEFT TO GO AND THE NEXT ONE IS MY SWING STATE OF SOUTH CAROLINA WITH DONALD TRUMP.

YOU HAVE ONE BOUT OF CHAOS AFTER ANOTHER. THIS COURT CASE, THAT CONTROVERSY, THIS TWEET, THAT SENIOR MOMENT, YOU CAN’T FIX JOE BIDEN’S CHAOS WITH REPUBLICAN CHAOS. >> ABC’S ZOHREEN SHAH IS IN MANCHESTER, NEW HAMPSHIRE WITH MORE. ZIRIN HALEY’S VOWING TO KEEP CAMPAIGNING. SO WHAT MESSAGE IS SHE TRYING

TO SEND AFTER THIS LOSS AND WITH THIS DETERMINATION TO STAY IN THIS RACE? DIANE, THREE WORDS. HELLO. SOUTH CAROLINA, I ONE OF HER ADS AND THAT IS HOW SHE ENDED. SHE’S REMINDING PEOPLE THAT SHE IS FROM THERE, THAT SHE WON THERE TWICE AND SHE’S CONTINUING DRAW A CONTRAST

BETWEEN BIDEN AND TRUMP SAYING SHE’S A NEW GENERATIONAL LEADER . BUT LOOK, SHE HAD A DOUBLE DIGIT LOSS HERE LAST NIGHT, A LOSS BY ABOUT 12 POINTS. HER CAMPAIGN’S MESSAGING FOR US, THOUGH IS THAT THERE ARE SEVERAL OPEN PRIMARIES AND A SATELLITE OPEN PRIMARIES COMING, AND THAT COULD BE FERTILE GROUND FOR HER.

MORE SUPPORT THAN ANYWHERE. THE STATES ONLY GET HARDER FOR HER GOING. BUT I HEARD THIS PHRASE ON THE CAMPAIGN TRAIL ALL THE TIME THAT CAMPAIGNS ARE MADE UP OF BILLIONAIRES AND BROKE KIDS. AND AS LONG AS SHE HAS STUCK WITH HER, SHE’S GOT A YOU SPOKE TO MANY VOTERS UP TO THIS

AND YOU SAY YOU GOT THE SENSE THEY ALREADY KNEW. THEY’LL LIKELY HERE. SO WHAT STOOD OUT TO YOU FROM THOSE CONVERSATIONS? YEAH, I REALLY FELT THAT. I MEAN, WE SPOKE TO A PANEL OF SIX INDEPENDENT VOTERS THIS WEEKEND. EVERY SINGLE PERSON THAT WE SPOKE TO SAID THAT OR PREDICTED

THAT TRUMP WOULD BE THE NOMINEE, THEY WOULD WIN LAST NIGHT AND WOULD GO ON TO BE THE NOMINEE. EVERYONE TOLD ME THAT THEY WERE EXHAUSTED, INCLUDING ALL THE VOTERS I SPOKE TO YESTERDAY. AND MANY FEEL THEY’RE EXHAUSTED BECAUSE THEY’RE GOING TO SEE A REPEAT OF 2016. MANY SHARE FEARS OF A CANDIDATE

THAT THEY DON’T LIKE, WHETHER IT’S BIDEN OR TRUMP WILL ULTIMATELY WIN. MEANWHILE, BIDEN WON THE DEMOCRATIC PRIMARY AND HE WASN’T EVEN ON THE BALLOT THERE . WALK US THROUGH HOW THIS WHOLE THING WENT DOWN OVER IN. IT WAS REALLY SOMETHING. DIANE, YOU HAD A LOT OF PEOPLE WRITING IN HIS NAME.

I MEAN, THIS IS THE FIRST TIME IN DECADES THAT A DEMOCRAT WAS NOT THE BALLOT EVER SINCE LBJ DECADES AGO WHEN HE WAS AN INCUMBENT. USUALLY WHEN DEMS ARE IN A BATTLE, THEY GET AT LEAST 80% OF THE VOTES ARE STILL BEING COUNTED. BUT THE CAMPAIGN BIDEN’S CAMPAIGN DID DO A DROP MERCH

THIS MORNING, A MARKED DROP. THEY WROTE ON A SHIRT. TOGETHER, WE WILL DEFEAT TRUMP AGAIN. CLEARLY A SIGN OF THE ADMINISTRATION THAT THEY ARE EXPECTING THAT REMATCH REGARDLESS OF WHAT NUMBERS THEY IN NEW HAMPSHIRE DIANE. ALL RIGHT, ZOHREEN SHAH IN NEW HAMPSHIRE. THANK YOU. AND ABC NEWS POLITICAL DIRECTOR

RICK KLEIN HAS A BREAKDOWN OF THE IN THE NEW HAMPSHIRE PRIMARIES AND WHAT IT ALL MEANS FOR NIKKI HALEY AS WE LOOK AHEAD TO THE NEXT RACE. >> HI, RICK. DIANE, UNLIKE IN IOWA, WE SAW RECORD TURNOUT IN NEW HAMPSHIRE. >> WE’VE NEVER SEEN THIS MANY REPUBLICAN VOTE VOTING, AS YOU CAN SEE.

IT’S A BIT OF A SPLIT MAP. DONALD TRUMP WON HANDILY. BUT NIKKI WON A WHOLE LOT OF SUBURBAN AREAS. AND SOME OF THE HIGHER INCOME PARTS OF THE OF THE STATE BY THE SEACOAST. >> SO IT KIND OF MADE FOR AN INTERESTING EVENING. >> AND WHAT’S EVEN MORE INTERESTING IS THE MAKEUP

OF THE ELECTORATE. IT WAS A LOT DIFFERENT THAN IOWA, AND IT’S EVEN DIFFERENT THAN YOU TYPICALLY SEE IN NEW. 46% OF REPUBLICAN PRIMARY VOTERS YESTERDAY WERE ACTUALLY INDEPENDENT, UNDECLARED. THAT SETS A NEW. IT WASN’T ENOUGH FOR NIKKI HALEY TO OVERCOME DONALD TRUMP’S LEAD, BUT DOES POINT

TO SOME POTENTIAL PROBLEM AREAS FOR FOR DONALD TRUMP MOVING FORWARD. THIS IS AN INTERESTING STATISTIC FOR ME. AT THE EXIT POLLS, 47% OF REPUBLICANS BELIEVE THAT JOE LEGITIMATELY WON THE ELECTION. OF COURSE, THAT IS TRUE, THAT HE WON THE ELECTION. DONALD TRUMP SAYS IT ISN’T. SO. THIS IS SOME SKEPTICISM ON ON

A KEY TRUMP CLAIM. ANOTHER ANOTHER EXIT POLL THAT I THOUGHT WAS INTERESTING. 54% OF REPUBLICANS BELIEVE THAT DONALD TRUMP IS STILL FIT TO BE PRESIDENT IF HE IS CONVICTED OF A CRIME, BUT 42% SAY HE ISN’T. >> AND THAT’S A BIG NUMBER THAT HAS TO BE TROUBLING IF YOU’RE DONALD TRUMP AND AN

ISSUE THAT THE REPUBLICANS ARE SCRAMBLING TO TRY TO ACCOUNT FOR 67% OF NEW HAMPSHIRE PRIMARY VOTERS, REPUBLICAN PRIMARY VOTERS SAY THEY DON’T WANT TO SEE A NATIONWIDE BAN ON ABORTION AGAIN. A MUCH DIFFERENT TWIST AS THIS RACE GOES FORWARD. AND IF YOU TAKE LOOK AT WHAT’S COMING UP FOR NIKKI HALEY,

YOU BEGIN TO SEE HOW HARD THIS PATH REALLY IS. THERE ARE A LOT OF STATES THAT HAVEN’T VOTED YET, BUT THERE AREN’T A LOT PLACES WHERE SHE HAS A REAL OPPORTUNITY TO BREAK THROUGH THE NEXT STATE UP. THAT OF ANY SIGNIFICANCE IS NEVADA. BUT IT TURNS OUT SHE’S NOT EVEN

ON THE BALLOT IN THE CAUCUSES. SHE HAS NO SHOT AT ANY OF THOSE DELEGATES RIGHT AFTER THAT, HOT ON ITS HEELS SOUTH CAROLINA. >> THAT IS NIKKI HALEY’S HOME STATE. BUT SHE’S TRAILING BIG IN THE POLLS. SO THE CHALLENGE FOR HER, SHE TRULY HAS TO WIN SOUTH CAROLINA AND THEN MOVE FORWARD.

>> IF SHE CAN GET TO SUPER TUESDAY, YOU START TO SEE STATES LIKE NORTH CAROLINA AND VIRGINIA, MASSACHUSETTS, A LOT OF THOSE STATES HAVE HAVE OPEN PRIMARIES. THEY ALLOW INDEPENDENTS, EVEN DEMOCRATS, TO VOTE. THAT IS GOT TO BE THE KEY TO NIKKI HALEY IF SHE HAS ANY PATH LEFT IN THIS NOMINATION

DIANE. >> ALL RIGHT. POLITICAL RICK KLEIN, THANK YOU. AND FORMER PRESIDENT TRUMP AND NIKKI HALEY ARE NOW LOOKING AHEAD TO THE SOUTH CAROLINA PRIMARIES ONE MONTH FROM TODAY ABC NEWS WHITE HOUSE CORRESPONDENT MARYALICE PARKS IS IN CHARLESTON, SOUTH CAROLINA WITH MORE ON THAT BECAUSE THIS IS NIKKI HALEY’S HOME STATE.

SHE SERVED GOVERNOR THERE. >> SO HOW DO HER CHANCES LOOK RIGHT NOW? RIGHT NOW, DIANE, IN THE POLLING, IT IS TOUGH HER. BUT YOU’RE RIGHT, SHE WAS HERE FOR AS A TWO TERM GOVERNOR AND A POPULAR ONE. SHE WAS REELECTED BY LARGE MARGINS. SHE HAS TALKED ABOUT HOW SHE

GETS TO COME HOME TO, HER HOME STATE. SHE’S FLYING BACK HERE TONIGHT HOLDING A BIG RALLY. HER TEAM ALREADY UP WITH ADS, NEW ADS TODAY. LOOK, THE STATE OFFICIALS I’VE TALKED TO SAY THIS IS GOING TO BE AN UPHILL CLIMB THAT TRUMP THE ONE WITH FIERCE, FIERCE LOYALTY.

THEY’VE TOLD ME IT’S NOT REALLY NECESSARILY THAT PEOPLE DON’T LIKE HER AND THAT SHE HAS BEEN REALLY LIKED, BUT THEN THEY SENSE PEOPLE LOVE DONALD TRUMP HERE. WE’LL HAVE TO SEE IF SHE CHANGES SOME OF HER CAMPAIGN TACTICS, HOW PEOPLE HERE RESPOND. ANY NEW TRUMP ATTACKS AGAINST THEIR FORMER GOVERNOR AND

WHETHER THAT CAN SHAKE UP THE RACE, BECAUSE I THINK THIS IS ABSOLUTELY A MAKE BREAK STATE FOR HER. DIANE, IT WOULD JUST BE TOO EMBARRASSING, TOO TOUGH TO LOSE YOUR HOME STATE. THIS IS ALSO THE FIRST OFFICIAL PRIMARY FOR DEMOCRATS, MARYALICE AFTER THE DNC RESHUFFLED ITS CALENDAR.

>> SO WHAT ARE YOU WATCHING FOR THERE? IT’S SO INTERESTING THAT DEMOCRATS ARE PUTTING SO MUCH TIME ATTENTION INTO THIS STATE. YOU’RE RIGHT. IT WAS THEIR DECISION TO CHANGE THE CALENDAR, TO ELEVATE SOUTH CAROLINA, TO GO FIRST. AND WE’VE SEEN PRESIDENT BIDEN SPENDING A LOT OF TIME HERE.

HE WAS HERE JUST A FEW WEEKS AGO. HE IS COMING BACK LATER THIS WEEK, BRINGING JILL BIDEN THE FIRST LADY, WITH HIM AS WELL. THEY HAVE STAFF HERE. THEY’RE POURING RESOURCES INTO THE STATE. INTERESTING FOR SOMEONE THAT DOESN’T HAVE A SERIOUS PRIMARY CHALLENGER, I MEAN, HE’S A SITTING INCUMBENT PRESIDENT.

THEIR TEAM SAYS THIS IS ABOUT HONORING BLACK VOTE, MAKING SURE THEY SHOW THE REST OF THE COUNTRY THAT BLACK VOTERS HERE IN SOUTH CAROLINA, A KEY PART OF DEMOCRATS BASE, ARE WITH HIM, ARE COMING OUT FOR HIM, THAT THAT MIGHT SEND A MESSAGE TO OTHER BLACK VOTERS AROUND THE COUNTRY.

BUT I GOT TO TELL YOU, THERE’S A LOT OF DEMOCRATS ARE ACTUALLY PRETTY SKEPTICAL ABOUT THIS STRATEGY. THEY SAY THE BIDEN CAMPAIGN SHOULD BE SPENDING MORE TIME ON MORE BATTLEGROUND STATES THAT MIGHT BE MUCH CLOSER IN A GENERAL ELECTION DIANE. ALL RIGHT. WHITE HOUSE CORRESPONDENT MARYALICE PARKS IN CHARLESTON, SOUTH CAROLINA.

THE LATEST INCIDENT IS EXPECTED TO COME TODAY AS BOEING’S CEO HEADS TO CAPITOL HILL FOR QUESTIONS FROM SENATORS ABOUT FLIGHT SAFETY. ABC NEWS TRANSPORTATION CORRESPONDENT GIO BENITEZ HAS THE DETAILS. >> IT WAS A SCARY IN ATLANTA. >> DELTA 982. THIS IS THE AIRCRAFT LOOKING ONE OF YOUR NOSE TIRES THIS

TIME OFF A DELTA BOEING 57 GETTING READY FOR TAKEOFF, LOSING ONE OF ITS NOSE TIRES. >> YOU HAVE LOCATED A TIRE TO SERVE AS SAFE AREA ON THE SOUTH SOUTHWEST. >> WELL, EXPERTS, THIS WAS LIKELY A MAINTENANCE ISSUE ON THE 31 YEAR OLD JET. BOEING HAS FACED A SLEW

OF QUESTIONS OVER, OTHER RECENT INCIDENTS. >> OH, MY GOD. FIRED JUST DAYS AGO. SPARKS SHOOTING FROM THE ENGINE OF A BOEING 747 CARGO PLANE OVER MIAMI. AND THEN, OF COURSE, THAT PLUG THAT FLEW OFF OF BOEING’S 737 MAX NINE. 16,000 FEET IN THE AIR. ALASKA AIRLINES CEO BEN MINUCCI

SAYS INSPECTORS HAVE FOUND MANY LOOSE BOLTS AND THAT HE’S FRUSTRATED AND ANGRY. >> BOEING IS BETTER THAN THIS. AND FLIGHT 1282 SHOULD NEVER HAVE HAPPENED. >> 171 MAX NINE REMAIN GROUNDED AS BOEING ANNOUNCES IT WILL PAUSE MANUFACTURING AT ITS 737 PLANTS THURSDAY TO HALT WORKING ON QUALITY CONTROL.

>> ALTHOUGH BOEING CEO HAS SAID THE COMPANY IS GOING TO GET BETTER, AIRLINES ARE GROWING FRUSTRATED WITH DELAYS. >> UNITED SAYING ORDERS FOR THE MAX TEN ARE NOT CANCELED, BUT THE PLANE IS REMOVED FROM INTERNAL GROWTH PLANS. AND CFO SAYING THE MAX NINE GROUNDING IS KIND OF THE STRAW THAT BROKE THE CAMEL’S

BACK. WHAT YOU’RE SEEING NOW IS TREMENDOUS COOPERATION BETWEEN BOEING, THE AIRLINES AND THE NTSB, THE FAA. >> THEY’LL GET THE ANSWERS AND THESE BIRDS BACK IN THE AIR SAFELY, BUT IT WILL TAKE A COUPLE OF WEEKS. >> MEANWHILE, BOEING CEO DAVE CALHOUN WILL MEET WITH SENATORS CAPITOL HILL TODAY.

WE’RE TOLD THAT THE MEETINGS WERE HIS REQUEST, BUT WITHOUT A DOUBT, THESE LAWMAKERS WILL HAVE TOUGH QUESTIONS FOR HIM AND THE BOEING FACES A TOUGH ROAD AHEAD, NO QUESTION ABOUT IT. DIANE GIO BENITEZ AT NEWARK AIRPORT, THANK YOU. >> AND IT’S TIME NOW FOR BUT TELL IT LIKE IT IS, WHERE

DR. ALOK PATEL SHARES HEALTH ADVICE ON THE TOPICS THAT MATTER MOST TO YOU. AND TODAY, WE’RE TALKING ABOUT THE RISKS OF MARIJUANA INTO RECREATIONAL MARIJUANA USE FOR ANYONE UNDER 21 IS NOT LEGAL ANYWHERE IN THE UNITED STATES. BUT TEENS ARE STILL USING IT. AND NEW STUDIES SHOW HOW DANGEROUS THE SIDE EFFECTS

COULD BE FOR THEM. >> HERE’S DR. PATEL WITH WHAT YOU NEED TO KNOW. >> MORE PEOPLE, INCLUDING TEENS, ARE USING MARIJUANA AND THEN DEVELOPING SYMPTOMS LIKE HALLUCINATIONS, CONFUSION AND, LOSING TOUCH WITH REALITY. DO THEY GET YOUR ATTENTION? BECAUSE THEY GOT MINE? DATA FROM A HEALTH CARE

ANALYTICS FIRM SHOWS A LINK BETWEEN MARIJUANA USE AND PSYCHOSIS IN TEENS. IT ALSO SHOWS THAT EMERGENCY DEPARTMENT VISITS FOR CANNABIS USE DISORDER WENT UP 50% FROM 2019 TO 2020. AND IN 2023, NUMBERS ARE STILL HIGHER THAN THEY WERE FOUR YEARS AGO. THERE ARE SEVERAL TYPES OF CANNABIS RELATED OR INDUCED DISORDERS, INCLUDING

INTOXICATION, WITHDRAWAL, ANXIETY, DELIRIUM, SLEEP DISORDERS AND PSYCHOSIS AND PSYCHOSIS. THAT IS NOT A SAFE STATE TO BE IN, ESPECIALLY FOR TEENS WHO HAVE UNDERLYING MENTAL HEALTH CONDITION. I MEAN, THIS COULD INCREASE SOMEONE’S RISK GETTING INJURED OR ATTEMPTING SUICIDE. NOW THAT MARIJUANA IS LEGALIZED FOR MEDICAL AND OR RECREATIONAL

USE IN ABOUT 40 STATES AND OVER 50 MILLION PEOPLE ABOVE THE AGE OF 12 TRIED IT IN 2021. WE HAVE TO HAVE A CONVERSATION . SOME OF THE ADVERSE SIDE EFFECTS. AND PLUS, THE PLANT ITSELF HAS ACTUALLY CHANGED OVER THE PAST 30 YEARS. THE MOST PSYCHOACTIVE COMPONENT DELTA NINE TETRAHYDROCANNABINOL, OR

THC, IS ACTUALLY MORE CONCENTRATED NOW THAN IT USED TO BE IN THE NINETIES. THE CONCENTRATION THC IN CANNABIS WAS AROUND 4% IN 2017. THAT NUMBER JUMPED UP TO 17%. AND MOVING BEYOND PLANTS TODAY, CERTAIN OILS AND EDIBLES CAN BE AS HIGH 90% THC. SOME PEOPLE MAY NOT EVEN KNOW

THIS WHEN THEY TRY THESE PRODUCTS. BOTTOM LINE, AS WEED CULTURE BECOMES MAINSTREAM, PARENTS SHOULD DO TWO THINGS. HAD CONVERSATIONS WITH TEENS ABOUT THE DANGERS OF CONSUMPTION AND SAFELY ANY CANNABIS PRODUCTS THAT ARE IN THE HOUSE AWAY FROM LITTLE HANDS WHO MIGHT THINK IT’S CANDY. AND DR. ALOK PATEL JOINS ME NOW

FOR MORE ON THIS DR. PATEL NO WEED FOR TEENS. LOVE THE SIGN. THAT’S MY PSA. PRETTY CLEAR MESSAGE THERE. BUT TALK TO ME ABOUT THIS CANNABIS USE DISORDER. IS THERE AN ACTUAL FOR THAT? AND WHAT ARE THE WARNING SIGNS ? >> DIANE, SIMPLY CANNABIS USE DISORDER IS ESSENTIALLY WHEN SOMEONE TROUBLE CUTTING

DOWN THEIR CANNABIS USE, EVEN IF THE TOXIC EFFECT OR THEIR CABIN IS INTERFERING WITH THEIR SOCIAL, THEIR HOME, THEIR WORK LIFE, OR THEIR HEALTH. AND THE CDC ESTIMATES THAT THIS AFFECTS ABOUT THREE IN TEN MARIJUANA USERS. NOW, THERE IS THIS PERCEPTION THAT MARIJUANA, BECAUSE IT’S ALL NATURAL, IT MAY

HAVE LESS TOXIC EFFECTS. >> WE’RE NOT LIKE A COMPARISON GAME HERE WITH OTHER DRUGS, BUT MARIJUANA CAN ACTUALLY BE AND CAN AFFECT SOMEONE’S BRAIN, MENTAL HEALTH, THEIR ATHLETIC PERFORMANCE, THEIR ABILITY TO DRIVE AND SO FORTH. SO IF ANYONE OUT THERE FEELS LIKE THEY’RE ADDICTED THEY HAVE SUBSTANCE USE DISORDER BECAUSE

OF CANNABIS AND THEY WANT TO CUT DOWN AND SUPPORT AND TALK TO A HEALTH CARE PROFESSIONAL. THERE ARE NO FDA APPROVED MEDICATIONS TO HELP WITH THIS, BUT METHODS SUCH AS TALK THERAPY AND COUNSELING CAN ABSOLUTELY HELP. >> IS THERE A SENSE OF HOW MUCH THC THC IS TOO MUCH?

IT ABSOLUTELY LOOSELY DEPENDS ON SOMEBODY’S TOLERANCE AGE. >> THEIR AND THESE INDIVIDUAL FACTORS WHEN IT COMES DOWN TO DETERMINING HOW MANY MILLIGRAMS OF THC CAN CAUSE A TOXIC EFFECT. >> BUT SOME STUDIES DO SUGGEST THAT AS LITTLE AS 2 TO 3 MILLIGRAMS OF INHALED THC OR 5 TO 20 MILLIGRAMS OF INGESTED

THC CAN SHOW THOSE TOXIC ADVERSE EFFECTS OF. >> AND THERE IS ONE STUDY IN CHILDREN SHOWING THAT A DOSE OF TWO MILLIGRAMS PER KILOGRAM OF INGESTED THC IS PREDICTIVE OF TOXICITY AND SOME SEVERE SYMPTOMS. >> TO PUT THIS IN PERSPECTIVE, IF YOU HAVE A CHILD WHO WEIGHS ABOUT 30 KILOGRAMS, £14, THAT’S

ABOUT 28 MILLIGRAMS OF THC IS NOT THAT HARD FOR A YOUNG CHILD TO INGEST. >> IF THEY FIND A CAN OF GUMMIES, ESPECIALLY GIVEN THE FACT OF HOW CONCENTRATED THC NOW IS IN SO MANY PRODUCTS. >> AND IN THIS STUDY, SOME KIDS, THEY TENDED TIMES THAT AMOUNT.

NOW, ANY PRACTICAL TIPS ON HOW PARENTS CAN DISCUSS THIS TOPIC WITH, THEIR TEENS AND WHAT TO LOOK OUT FOR? >> ONE OF THE MOST IMPORTANT THINGS YOU JUST MENTIONED IS DISCUSSING THIS WITH YOUR TEEN. FOR MY MEETING OF THE HARMFUL EFFECTS OF INGESTING MARIJUANA, HOW IT CAN AFFECT THEIR DEVELOPMENT,

THEIR ATHLETIC PERFORMANCE, THEIR HEALTH, REMINDING YOU THAT IT IS NOT LEGAL ANYWHERE IN THE COUNTRY FOR TEENS TO INGEST OR USE MARIJUANA THE AGE OF 21. AND ALSO, WHEN IT COMES TO YOUNGER KIDS, SAFE STORAGE IS AND KEEPING ANY TYPE OF CANNABIS PRODUCT AWAY FROM AND CHILD RESISTANT PACKAGING

AND NOT ABOUT ANY OTHER FOOD SNACK EXTREMELY IMPORTANT THAT PARENTS AWARE OF THIS BECAUSE I WILL TELL YOU AS A PEDIATRICIAN I HAVE SEEN KIDS IN EMERGENCY DEPARTMENT BECAUSE OF INTOXICATION FROM EDIBLES WHETHER OR NOT THAT WAS INTENTIONAL OR NOT OR WITH SEVERE SYMPTOMS SUCH AS LOSS OF BALANCE, SLURRED SPEECH, NAUSEA VOMITING,

CARDIAC SYMPTOMS, AND MORE. SO WHEN IN DOUBT, YOU HAVE THOSE CONVERSATIONS, BUT YOU WANT TO SEEK EMERGENCY CARE OR CALL POISON CONTROL. >> YET ANY ANY THOUGHT THAT YOUR CHILDREN HAVE ACCIDENTALLY GOTTEN INTO SOME CANNABIS. >> ALL RIGHT, DR. PATEL, GOOD ADVICE THERE. THANK YOU. AND DR. IS HERE TO TAKE

YOUR QUESTIONS. SO JUST LEAVE A MESSAGE ON OUR INSTAGRAM FEED AT ABC NEWS LIVE. AND YOU MIGHT ANSWER YOUR QUESTION RIGHT HERE ON FRIDAY. AND NATIONWIDE SHORTAGES ARE BEING REPORTED FOR MEDICATIONS USED FOR WEIGHT LOSS LIKE WE GO THE OZEMPIC AND MUNJAL. TWO IN FIVE AMERICANS ARE CLASSIFIED AS OBESE AND FOR

MANY THESE DRUGS HAVE BEEN REVOLUTIONARY. BUT HOW DO YOU KNOW IF THEY’LL WORK FOR YOU? ABC’S BECKY WORLEY IS LOOKING AT DIFFERENT OPTIONS THOSE STRUGGLING TO REACH A HEALTHY WEIGHT. >> STEPHANIE OF WASHINGTON STATE SAYS WHEN SHE HIT £260, SHE KNEW SOMETHING HAD TO CHANGE. I STARTED HAVING PROBLEMS WITH HIGH BLOOD PRESSURE,

PRE-DIABETES. AFTER YEARS OF TRYING DIET AND EXERCISE SHE SAYS NOTHING SEEMED TO HELP. >> I WAS FRUSTRATED, SUPER FRUSTRATED AND VERY MISERABLE WITH EVERYTHING. >> SHE TALKED TO HER DOCTOR GETTING ON MUNJAL, A DIABETES MEDICATION BEING USED OFF LABEL BY, SOME FOR WEIGHT LOSS. >> I’VE LOST £93 SINCE MARCH

AND I FEEL ABSOLUTELY AMAZING. THIS HONESTLY HAS BEEN A GODSEND. >> SINCE STEPHANIE STARTED MUNJAL, ANOTHER DRUG, ZMAPP, WHICH HAS THE SAME ACTIVE INGREDIENT CALLED TERMS APPETITE HAS BEEN APPROVED FOR WEIGHT LOSS. JOINING WOULD GO BE AS AN APPROVED WEIGHT LOSS. INJECTABLE. >> WHAT WE’RE SEEING RIGHT NOW

IS A HUGE REVOLUTION IN THE TREATMENT OF METABOLIC DISEASE. >> DR. ARONEY IS AN OBESITY SPECIALIST AND HELPS PATIENTS DETERMINE WHICH WEIGHT LOSS INTERVENTION IS RIGHT FOR THEM. >> I THINK PEOPLE WHO HAVE BEEN TRYING FOR YEARS TO LOSE WEIGHT AND HAVEN’T BEEN ABLE TO SUCCEED ARE EXCELLENT CANDIDATES FOR TREATMENT THIS.

AND WHAT THEY WILL REALIZE IT’S NOT FAULT THERE’S SOMETHING PHYSICAL THAT’S GOING ON IN THE BACKGROUND. HE SAYS CANDIDATES SHOULD HAVE A BMI OF 30 OR IF THEY HAVE A PREEXISTING CONDITION LIKE HIGH BLOOD PRESSURE OR CHOLESTEROL, THEIR BMI CAN BE AS LOW AS 27. BUT HE ADDS, THESE DRUGS

ARE NOT FOR EVERYONE. >> WHAT ABOUT PEOPLE WHO HAVE AN EXTRA TEN, £12 THAT THEY JUST WANT TO GET OFF QUICKLY? >> THESE MEDICINES ARE NOT FOR THOSE PEOPLE. >> AND HE SAYS THERE ARE SOME PEOPLE WITH HIGHER BMI WHO ARE BETTER CANDIDATES FOR BARIATRIC SURGERY. >> WE SEE PATIENTS WHO DON’T

RESPOND TO THESE MEDICINES, THEIR BRAINS. >> WE BELIEVE ARE RESISTANT TO EVEN THESE BRAND NEW GLP ONES. >> WE’RE NOT SURE WHY THAT IS. BUT FOR STEPHANIE, HER HEALTHIER WEIGHT, THANKS TO MEDICATIONS, HAS BEEN THE RIGHT FIT AND. >> A WELCOME RELIEF. NOW TO MOVE BREAKING THIS TOPIC, A NEW ANALYSIS FROM EPIC

RESEARCH THAT LOOKED AT THE HEALTH RECORDS OF MORE THAN 20,000 PEOPLE TAKING SEMAGLUTIDE HAS SHOWN MANY PEOPLE REGAINING WEIGHT AFTER STOPPING THE DRUGS. IN THE EPIC STUDY, HALF OF PATIENTS MAINTAINED THEIR WEIGHT LOSS EVEN A YEAR AFTER DISCONTINUING MEDICATION . ONLY ABOUT 18% OF PEOPLE REGAINED THE WEIGHT THEY HAD LOST.

NOW THIS IS ENCOURAGING FOR PEOPLE TAKING SEMAGLUTIDE, ESPECIALLY IN LIGHT OF PRIOR WARNINGS ABOUT WEIGHT REGAIN IN SOME. PEOPLE STOP TAKING THE DRUG. EVERYBODY’S DIFFERENT. AND DOCTORS ARE STILL LEARNING HOW PEOPLE RESPOND TO THESE TYPES OF DRUGS. >> DIANE SO, IMPORTANT TO TALK TO YOUR DOCTOR ABOUT THAT.

DESPITE BARBIE’S INCREDIBLE, GRETA GERWIG WAS NOT NOMINATED IN THE DIRECTOR CATEGORY AND MARGOT ROBBIE GOT NO NOMINATION FOR LEAD ACTRESS.

NOW NOMINATED COSTARS RYAN GOSLING AND AMERICA FERRERA ARE RESPONDING. LARA SPENCER HAS MORE THAN ANY CONFUSION IN HOLLYWOOD OVER. >> A MAJOR OSCAR SNUB. HI, BABY. HI, BARBIE BARBIE SCORING EIGHT NOMINATIONS. AND IT TURNS OUT, IN FACT, THAT NOT ONLY ARE YOU DOING EVERYTHING WRONG, BUT ALSO EVERYTHING IS YOUR FAULT,

INCLUDING BEST SUPPORTING ACTRESS FOR AMERICA FERRERA. JUST KIDDING. AND SUPPORTING ACTOR FOR RYAN GOSLING. THE MOVIE ALSO GETTING A BEST PICTURE NOD, BUT LEFT OUT THE BILLION DOLLAR BLOCKBUSTER STAR MARGOT ROBBIE FOR BEST ACTRESS AND GRETA GERWIG FOR DIRECTING. >> I THINK THAT’S THE NAME THAT EVERYONE HAS ON THEIR

LIVES IS NOT BARBIE. GRETA GERWIG GRETA DID GET NOMINATED FOR ADAPTED SCREENPLAY, BUT SHE WAS SNUBBED AND THAT’S DIRECTOR, WHICH MANY ,ALL, INCLUDING MYSELF, THOUGHT THAT SHE WAS GOING TO BE A SHOO IN FOR FANS UPSET . >> HOW DOES CAN GET AN OSCAR NOMINATION FOR BARBIE? >> BARBIE DOESN’T GET AN OSCAR

NOMINATION FOR BARBIE. IF YOU SCRIPTED THIS SCENARIO, NO ONE WOULD EVER BELIEVE YOU AND GOSLING RELEASING A STATEMENT SAYING, QUOTE, THERE IS NO CANNES WITHOUT BARBIE AND THERE IS NO “BARBIE” MOVIE WITHOUT GRETA GERWIG AND MARGOT ROBBIE. TO SAY THAT I’M DISAPPOINTED THAT THEY ARE NOT NOMINATED IN THEIR RESPECTIVE CATEGORIES

WOULD BE AN UNDERSTATEMENT. IT IS LITERALLY IMPOSSIBLE TO BE A WOMAN. THE NOMINATIONS FOR EACH CATEGORY ARE DETERMINED BY THOSE WHO ARE MEMBERS OF IT ,MEANING ACTORS VOTE FOR ACTORS AND DIRECTORS DETERMINE WHO GETS THE DIRECTING NODS. >> THE DIRECTORS BRANCH IS A LOT SMALLER THAN THE ACTORS BRANCH IN.

IT DOES LEAN MUCH MORE, AND AN OLDER GROUP VOTERS. END UP PLAYING TO BARBIE’S ADVANTAGE WHEN IT COMES TO BEST PICTURE. >> ANYTHING CAN HAPPEN. ATTITUDES CAN CHANGE. PEOPLE CAN, YOU KNOW, RALLY BEHIND A FILM IF THEY THINK THAT IT’S KIND OF LAGGING BEHIND OTHERS. SO THIS IS DEFINITELY SOMETHING

BUT NIKKI HALEY PROMISING TO KEEP FIGHTING. PRESIDENT BIDEN NOW GEARS UP FOR THE GENERAL ELECTION. OUR TEAM BREAKS DOWN THE STATE OF THE RACE. AND NEW U.S. AIRSTRIKES IN IRAQ. OFFICIALS SAY THE ATTACKS TARGETED, IRAN BACKED MILITIA GROUPS IN RETALIATION FOR ATTACKS ON AMERICAN TROOPS OVER THE WEEKEND.

WHAT’S AT STAKE IS IRAN’S FOREIGN MINISTER WARNS THE DANGER OF A WIDER WAR. AND NEW TROUBLE FOR BOEING AFTER A JET LOST A TIRE WHILE PREPARING FOR TAKEOFF. BUT THE COMPANY’S CEO IS NOW SET TO MEET WITH LAWMAKERS AND HOW STRING OF RECENT INCIDENTS COULD AFFECT YOUR TRAVEL PLANS.

AND A DOG PROVING WHY WE CALL THE MAN’S BEST FRIEND. WE’RE GOING TO MEET CODY, THE DEAF PUP WHOSE STORY OF FINDING HIS FOREVER HOME IS SO INSPIRING. HE’S GOING ON TOUR. FIND OUT. WHY? CODY’S NEW OWNER SAYS HIS DOG HAS A SUPERPOWER. AND WE THANK YOU FOR WATCHING.

ABC NEWS LIVE. FORMER PRESIDENT IS NOW ONE STEP CLOSER TO THE 2024 REPUBLICAN NOMINATION. AFTER A DOUBLE DIGIT VICTORY IN, NEW HAMPSHIRE NIKKI HALEY CAME UP SHORT, BUT SHE IS VOWING TO STAY IN THE RACE AHEAD OF NEXT MONTH’S PRIMARY IN HER HOME STATE OF SOUTH CAROLINA. MEANWHILE, PRESIDENT BIDEN WON

THE DEMOCRATIC NEW HAMPSHIRE PRIMARY EVEN THOUGH HE WAS NOT ON THE BALLOT. ABC NEWS WHITE HOUSE CORRESPONDENT MARYALICE PARKS JOINS US NOW FROM CHARLESTON, SOUTH CAROLINA, FOR MUCH MORE ON THIS. MARYALICE, JUST HOW CRITICAL ARE THESE NEXT FEW WEEKS GOING TO BE FOR, NIKKI HALEY, AS SHE’S GETTING READY FOR THIS

PRIMARY IN HER OWN HOME STATE? YEAH, ABSOLUTELY CRITICAL. SECOND PLACE ONLY GETS YOU SECOND PLACE. YOU CAN’T WIN UNLESS YOU ACTUALLY A STATE. AND SHE HAS TO SHOW THAT SHE CAN WIN HER HOME STATE HERE. I THINK IT WOULD JUST BE TOO TOUGH OF A CELL AFTERWARDS IF SHE DIDN’T HAVE.

THAT STORY. SO, LOOK, SHE’S HEADED BACK HOME. SHE TALKS ABOUT IT AS HER SWEET HOME, SOUTH CAROLINA. SHE HAS AN EVENT HERE IN CHARLESTON LATER TODAY. BUT THERE’S A TOUGH REALITY WAITING FOR HER BACK HOME, WHICH IS THAT FORMER PRESIDENT DONALD TRUMP IS REALLY BELOVED HERE IN POLLS

SHOW HIM WITH 60% OF THE SUPPORT HERE. I’VE TALKED TO STATE PARTY OFFICIALS AND, SOME FORMER STATE PARTY OFFICIALS THAT SAY SHE WAS POPULAR, BUT THEN HE IS LOVED. THERE IS A FIERCE LOYALTY HERE. YOU KNOW, HER TEAM SAYS, THAT THEY’RE JUST GOING TO CHIP AWAY AT THAT. THEY HAVE BEEN MAKING

THE ARGUMENT THAT HE HAS ALL THE TRAPPINGS OF AN INCUMBENT, ALL OF THE SUPPORT OF THE ESTABLISHMENT, AND HE ONLY GOT ABOUT 50, JUST OVER 50% OF THE VOTE. THEY SAY THAT SHOWS A WEAKNESS THAT THEY CAN STILL EXPLOIT. THEY DO HAVE ABOUT A MONTH TO GO UNTIL THE SOUTH CAROLINA PRIMARY.

TREVOR AND NIKKI HALEY OF COURSE SPEAKS VERY FONDLY OF SOUTH CAROLINA, BUT DOES IT GO THE OTHER DIRECTION? >> WHAT ARE THE VOTERS TELLING YOU THERE ON THE GROUND? YEAH, THEY’RE TELLING US IT’S GOING TO BE REALLY HARD LIKE THAT. SHE IS HAS UPHILL ROAD TO CLIMB, LARGELY BECAUSE SHE

BEEN HERE ALL THAT MUCH. I MEAN, THAT’S PART OF IT IS SHE SPENT SO MUCH TIME TREVOR IN NEW HAMPSHIRE. SHE PUT ALL THE EGGS IN THAT BASKET AND HE HAS HAD TRUMP, ON THE OTHER HAND, HAS HAD STAFF HERE, VOLUNTEERS HERE, RESOURCES. AND I THINK THAT THAT MEANS

THAT SHE HAS TO COME AND REALLY HIT THE GROUND RUNNING. IT WILL BE INTERESTING, THOUGH, HOW HER CAMPAIGN MIGHT CHANGE. YOU KNOW, I WAS IN NEW HAMPSHIRE AND TALKING TO VOTERS ABOUT TRUMP’S MOST RECENT ATTACKS, HIM CALLING HER DISLOYAL, HIM EVEN MOCKING HER GIVEN NAME. AND THEY REALLY PUSHED BACK ON

THAT. IT DOESN’T SIT WELL WITH VOTERS. AND THAT’S THE KIND OF THING I THINK COULD MAKE AN EVEN BIGGER DIFFERENCE HERE. NO ONE LIKES TO SEE THEIR HOMETOWN GAL ATTACKED, EVEN IF THEY LIKE TRUMP. I THINK THAT SOME OF THOSE PERSONAL ATTACKS MIGHT NOT PLAY WELL ON THE GROUND HERE

AND THAT VOTERS I THINK THAT THERE’S A REAL THERE POTENTIALLY FOR NIKKI HALEY TO TAKE ADVANTAGE OF MAYBE TRUMP GETTING NASTY AT THIS POINT IN THE RACE. SHE DOES HAVE A COUPLE OF WEEKS TO AT LEAST TRY TO MAKE UP SOME GROUND. MARYALICE PARKS FOR US THERE IN SOUTH CAROLINA.

WE LOOK FORWARD TO YOUR CONTINUING REPORTING. THANK YOU. WELL, FOR MUCH MORE ANALYSIS ON WHAT’S HAPPENED IN NEW HAMPSHIRE, WE HAVE EDITOR OF THE NATIONAL REVIEW, RAMESH PONNURU AND DEMOCRATIC STRATEGIST JULIE RIGG LYNSKEY JOINING US NOW FOR MORE. RAMESH, LET’S START WITH YOU. HOW DOES NIKKI HALEY GO FORWARD IN THIS RACE?

>> LOOKING AHEAD TO THIS PRIMARY IN HER STATE OF SOUTH CAROLINA? >> WELL, I THINK IT’S GOING TO BE VERY DIFFICULT FOR HER. I THINK THERE’S GOING BE INTENSE PRESSURE FROM THE REPUBLICAN PARTY, PARTY OFFICIALS, AND MAYBE EVEN FROM VOTERS SAYING SHE NEEDS TO GET OF THE RACE. THIS IS TRUMP’S NOMINATION

AND THE PARTY NEEDS TO UNIFY. SHE’S GOING TO PUSH BACK SAYING THAT IT’S A LITTLE BIT ABSURD TO SAY THAT AFTER ONLY TWO STATES HAVE WEIGHED IN. THAT’S WHAT SHE SAID LAST NIGHT. BUT I THINK THAT THAT’S GOING TO BE A REAL, REAL UPHILL CLIMB. JUST GETTING THE HEARING OVER THE NEXT MONTH.

IF SHE DOES THAT THEN SHE CAN MAKE HER CASE. SHE CAN BE IN SOUTH CAROLINA. SHE’S GOT TIME. SHE CAN BE THERE IN A WAY THAT SHE’S BEEN IN NEW HAMPSHIRE AND MAYBE CHIP AWAY AT SOME OF THOSE NUMBERS. >> IN FACT IT’S SO MUCH OF AN UPHILL CLIMB THAT ON

THE DEMOCRATIC SIDE, PRESIDENT BIDEN IS ALREADY LOOKING TO THE GENERAL ELECTION, GIULIANI SAID. >> AFTER LAST NIGHT’S RESULTS, TRUMP WILL BE THE REPUBLICAN NOMINEE. >> HOW DOES THE PRESIDENT PREPARE FOR THAT? >> WELL, I THINK THE PRESIDENT’S BEEN PREPARING FOR THAT FOR YEARS BECAUSE THERE’S NOBODY IN THE REAL

WORLD WHO BELIEVES THAT ANYBODY COULD OF BEATING DONALD TRUMP IN A REPUBLICAN PRIMARY. IT’S BECOME LESS OF A POLITICAL PARTY, MORE OF CULT SERVICE OF DONALD TRUMP. AND THE PRESIDENT KNOWS THAT. AND SO DOES THE FORMER PRESIDENT. >> YOU KNOW, I THINK PRESIDENT TRUMP IS, THE CANDIDATE THAT PRESIDENT

BIDEN WANTS TO RUN AGAIN AGAINST. HE DID IT SUCCESSFULLY FOUR YEARS AGO AND HE WILL DO IT SUCCESSFULLY, I THINK THE WHITE HOUSE BELIEVES NOW. AND DESPITE THE PRESIDENT’S POLL NUMBERS WHICH SOMETIMES FLUCTUATE FROM FROM WORST TO BAD DONALD TRUMP IS REALLY CHALLENGED IN THIS ELECTION, BECAUSE IF YOU LOOK AT WHAT

HAPPENED IN NEW HAMPSHIRE, HE GOT 74% OF REPUBLICAN VOTERS. THAT MEANS THAT MORE THAN QUARTER OF ALL REPUBLICANS JUST WILL NOT VOTE FOR DONALD TRUMP, DESPITE 100% NAME SATURATION. THAT’S SOMETHING THE WHITE HOUSE IS PAYING ATTENTION TO, PAYING ATTENTION TO HAVE FORMALLY DECLARED MODERATES IN HAMPSHIRE HAVE WAITED AMONG COLLEGE EDUCATED REPUBLICANS

AND BARELY THEY’RE AMONG INDEPENDENT VOTERS. THESE ARE ALL THINGS THAT NOBODY ELSE HAD PROBLEMS THAT NOBODY ELSE BUT DONALD TRUMP CAN POSSIBLY HAVE. AND SO AS A RESULT, I THINK THIS IS SOMETHING THE WHITE HOUSE IS PROBABLY NOT JUST PREPARED FOR, BUT EXCITED ABOUT. >> RAMESH, WE DID SEE THE FORMER

PRESIDENT COMPLAINING DURING NEW HAMPSHIRE PRIMARY YESTERDAY ABOUT HOW INDEPENDENTS COULD VOTE. SOUTH CAROLINA IS A LITTLE BIT UNIQUE IN THAT THE DEMOCRATIC AND REPUBLICAN PRIMARIES THERE ARE STAGGERED. THEY ARE WEEKS APART FROM EACH OTHER, WHICH ALLOWS ANY VOTER WHO FIRST CAST A BALLOT IN THE DEMOCRATIC PRIMARY TO VOTE

IN THE REPUBLICAN CONTEST IF THEY CHOOSE. DOES THAT BENEFIT TRUMP, HALEY, OR IS THERE ANY KIND OF STRATEGY THERE? >> THINK AT THIS POINT, IT’S PRETTY CLEAR THAT TRUMP BENEFITS THE MORE CLOSED REPUBLICAN CONTEST AS IT’S DIFFERENT THAN 2016 WHEN HE WAS REGULARLY WINNING INDEPENDENTS AND HE WON INDEPENDENTS IN NEW

HAMPSHIRE IN 2016. >> NOT THIS TIME AROUND. BUT I THINK OF THE THINGS THAT SHOWS AND JULIE WAS IT WAS GETTING RIGHT TO THAT POINT IS THAT THERE ARE SOME VULNERABILITIES BEING EXPOSED HERE IN THE GENERAL ELECTION. I AGREE WITH HER. THERE IS A KIND CULTISH ELEMENT TO TRUMP’S FOLLOWING, BUT THERE

ARE A OF REPUBLICANS WHO ARE NOT IN THE CULT AND CERTAINLY A LOT OF INDEPENDENTS WHO HAVE BEEN OPEN TO BACKING REPUBLICANS IN THE PAST. THAT’S GOING TO BE A PROBLEM FOR HIM. OF COURSE, BIDEN HAS TO SOLIDIFY HIS OWN AND HE’S GOT SOME PROBLEMS ON THE LEFT RIGHT NOW.

>> AND JULIE, WHAT JUST TO WRAP THIS UP HERE, WE DO KNOW THAT IN NEW HAMPSHIRE, OF COURSE, THE PRESIDENT WON AS A WRITE IN CAMPAIGN, BUT SOUTH CAROLINA IS THE FIRST OFFICIAL PRIMARY FOR DEMOCRATS BECAUSE THE DNC RESHUFFLED ITS CALENDAR. DOES IT MATTER? IS THERE ANYTHING THAT YOU’RE

GOING TO BE LOOKING FOR IN THE RESULTS THERE? >> ABSOLUTELY CRITICAL. I MEAN, CRITICAL TO PRESIDENT TO HAVE A STRONG SHOWING AMONG AFRICAN-AMERICAN VOTERS WHO ARE THE BACKBONE OF NOT JUST THE SOUTH CAROLINA DEMOCRATIC BASE, BUT ALSO THE DEMOCRATIC NATIONALLY. NO DEMOCRATIC PRESIDENT HAS EVER WON ELECTION SINCE LYNDON JOHNSON, I BELIEVE, WITHOUT

WITH JUST A MAJORITY OF WHITE VOTERS. SO AFRICAN-AMERICAN VOTERS AND PEOPLE OF COLOR GENERALLY ARE THE BACKBONE. THIS PARTY AND SOUTH CAROLINA WILL TELL THE TALE. IF HAS A STRONG SHOWING AMONG AFRICAN-AMERICAN VOTERS, SPECIFICALLY AFRICAN-AMERICAN WOMEN, THAT WILL REALLY TELL THE TALE OF HOW HE’S GOING TO DO GOING FORWARD IN THE

GENERAL ELECTION. IT IS CRITICAL FOR HIM TO MAKE SURE THAT THAT BASE TURNS OUT NOT JUST IN SOUTH CAROLINA NEXT ,BUT ALSO IN NEXT NOVEMBER. >> AND WE WILL BE WATCHING VERY CLOSELY. JULIE LINSKY AND RAMESH PONNURU, THANK YOU VERY MUCH FOR YOUR TIME. MOVING OVERSEAS NOW,

THE DIRECTOR OF THE U.N. RELIEF AND WORKS AGENCY SAYS ONE OF ITS BUILDINGS SHELTERING HUNDREDS OF PALESTINIANS HAS BEEN HIT AS FIGHTING ESCALATES IN GAZA. THE AGENCY SAYS TWO TANK ROUNDS HIT ITS TRAINING CENTER IN KHAN YUNIS, LEAVING AT LEAST NINE PEOPLE DEAD AND 75 MORE INJURED. MEANWHILE, THE WHITE SAYS SERIOUS DISCUSSIONS

ARE UNDERWAY ABOUT TRYING TO GET ANOTHER PAUSE IN FIGHTING TO SECURE THE RELEASE OF HOSTAGES. AND NEW U.S. AIRSTRIKES ARE TARGETING IRAN BACKED MILITIA GROUPS THIS IN IRAQ. TWO U.S. OFFICIALS SAY THIS WAS IN RETALIATION FOR ATTACKS ON AMERICAN TROOPS OVER THE WEEKEND. NOW, IRAN IS WARNING OF THE

DANGER OF A WIDER WAR. ABC CHIEF GLOBAL AFFAIRS CORRESPONDENT RADDATZ HAS THE LATEST. >> U.S. CENTRAL ANNOUNCING ANOTHER STRIKE IN YEMEN TARGETING TO HOUSE ANTI-SHIP MISSILES, POSING AN IMMINENT THREAT. THIS IS THE 10TH MILITARY AIR STRIKE IN THE REGION. >> A SEPARATE OPERATION TUESDAY TARGETED THREE SITES IN IRAQ,

INCLUDING A WEAPONS STORAGE FACILITY, HOUSING, ARMED DRONES AND MISSILES. >> THE STRIKES IN DIRECT FOR ATTACKS ON AMERICAN TROOPS OVER THE WEEKEND INCLUDING AT THE AL-ASSAD AIR BASE, WHERE FOUR U.S. PERSONNEL SUFFERED TRAUMATIC BRAIN INJURIES. AND IN THE RED SEA, THE U.S. ALSO TRADING FIRE WITH THE IRAN BACKED HOUTHIES.

IRAN’S FOREIGN MINISTER PRAISING, THE YEMENI REBELS ATTACKS ON COMMERCIAL VESSELS AND TARGETING U.S. NAVY SHIPS. HE CALLED THEM BRAVE, BUT DENYING EVIDENCE HIS COUNTRY IS SUPPLYING THE WEAPONS. THE PENTAGON SENT OUT PICTURES OF THOSE WEAPONS SHOWING WERE FROM IRAN. >> IN ALL, IT’S A SHOW THEY PUT ON TV.

>> HE CLAIMS AMERICAN OFFICIALS HAVE SENT MULTIPLE PRIVATE MESSAGES TO IRAN, WARNING AGAINST ESCALATION. >> IS THERE A RED LINE FOR IRAN WHERE YOU WOULD ENTER A WAR WITH THE U.S.? SATURDAY, THE MINISTER SAYING THE DANGER OF A WIDER WAR HAS INCREASED AND THAT THE THREAT WILL PERSIST AS LONG AS THE

U.S. STANDS BEHIND ISRAEL. >> OUR THANKS TO OUR CHIEF GLOBAL AFFAIRS CORRESPONDENT, MARTHA RADDATZ, FOR THAT REPORT. MARTHA, THANK YOU. AND AS WE MENTIONED, NATIONAL SECURITY COUNCIL SPOKESPERSON JOHN KIRBY SAYS THE U.S. IS IN SERIOUS DISCUSSIONS NOW ABOUT TRYING GET ANOTHER PAUSE IN FIGHTING BETWEEN ISRAEL AND HAMAS, TRYING TO SECURE

THE RELEASE OF THE REMAINING HOSTAGES. WE WANT TO BRING IN ABC NEWS WHITE HOUSE CORRESPONDENT KAREN TRAVERS FOR MORE NOW. SO, KAREN, WHAT IS THE LATEST HERE ON THESE EFFORTS TO FREE THE HOSTAGES, TREVOR? >> THERE WERE REPORTS THERE ARE CONVERSATIONS ABOUT A POTENTIAL TWO MONTH PAUSE IN THE FIGHTING BETWEEN

ISRAEL AND HAMAS IN ORDER TO SECURE THE RELEASE OF ALL THE REMAINING HOSTAGES HELD IN GAZA. THAT WOULD ALSO ALLOW MORE AID TO GET INTO GAZA. NOW, THE WHITE HOUSE YESTERDAY WAS NOT CONFIRMING THAT TIMEFRAME. NATIONAL SECURITY SPOKESMAN JOHN KIRBY WOULD NOT SAY WHETHER THAT IS SOMETHING THAT IS ON THE TABLE.

BUT DID SAY THERE ARE SERIOUS DISCUSSIONS UNDERWAY ABOUT ANOTHER PAUSE. AND BRAD MCGURK, A SENIOR WHITE HOUSE OFFICIAL, IS IN REGION RIGHT NOW ENGAGED IN THOSE CONVERSATIONS. THE WHITE HOUSE WILL NOT SAY, THOUGH, WHERE THEY STAND, BUT SAYS THAT THIS IS, OF COURSE, A TOP PRIORITY FOR THE PRESIDENT AND THE

ADMINISTRATION TO TRY AND EXTEND THE PAUSE TO BE ABLE TO GET HOSTAGES OUT AND, OF COURSE, GET MORE AID IN TO THE PEOPLE IN GAZA WHO DESPERATELY NEED IT RIGHT NOW. >> AND WHILE WE HAVE YOU, KAREN, DO YOU WANT TO TALK ABOUT TWO ISSUES CLOSER TO HOME

HERE AS WE’VE BEEN WATCHING THE IOWA CAUCUS, THE NEW HAMPSHIRE PRIMARY, WHAT A LOT OF REPUBLICAN VOTERS ARE SAYING IT’S A TOP ISSUE FOR THEM IS IMMIGRATION. AND I KNOW THAT THE WHITE HOUSE HAS TOLD YOU THAT THEY’RE GOING TO CONTINUE TO BE OPTIMISTIC ABOUT A BORDER DEAL, AS THE SENATE NEGOTIATORS

APPEAR TO BE, MAYBE INCHING CLOSER TO AN AGREEMENT. IS THE LATEST THERE. >> THEY’RE GETTING CLOSER. THERE WAS SOME TALK ABOUT MAYBE HAVING A VOTE THIS WEEK THAT SEEMS VERY OPTIMISTIC BECAUSE THERE HAS BEEN NO BILL TEXT THAT’S EVEN BEEN ANNOUNCED AND NO AGREEMENT YET. >> BUT THERE ARE CERTAINLY

SIGNS OF OPTIMISM ON CAPITOL HILL THAT THEY’RE GETTING CLOSER, FINALIZING A DEAL ON BORDER POLICY CHANGES THAT WOULD UNLOCK SUPPORT FOR THE UKRAINE, AID THAT THE WHITE HOUSE HAS BEEN ASKING FOR. NOW, THIS IS SIGNIFICANT AMOUNT OF MONEY, $106 BILLION IS WHAT THE WHITE HOUSE WANTED. 61 BILLION OF THAT WOULD GO TO

UKRAINE. THEY ASKED FOR ABOUT $14 BILLION FOR BORDER SECURITY. BUT RIGHT NOW IT LOOKS LIKE WITH THE CHANGE THAT NEGOTIATORS HAVE BEEN TALKING ABOUT BEHIND CLOSED DOORS, THAT PRICE COULD COME IN SIGNIFICANTLY HIGHER ON THAT. SO NOW, TREVOR, THE BIG DEAL WOULD BE TRYING TO GET ALL OF THE NUMBERS TO WORK.

THE WHITE HOUSE SAYS THEY’RE GOING TO REMAIN OPTIMISTIC THAT THEY’RE GETTING CLOSER TO THE FINISH LINE, BUT THEY’RE NOT TO TALK ABOUT WHAT IS BEING DISCUSSED RIGHT NOW BEHIND THE SCENES. JUST GOT TO GET THOSE DARN NUMBERS TO WORK. KAREN TRAVERS FOR US AT, THE WHITE HOUSE.

KAREN, THANK YOU SO MUCH. AND JUST DOWN THE ROAD FROM KAREN, ACTUALLY, BOEING IS FACING SOME NEW SCRUTINY ABOUT THE SAFETY OF ITS PASSENGER JETS. SO COMPANY’S CEO IS MEETING WITH LAWMAKERS ON CAPITOL HILL TODAY, THE WAKE OF THE ALASKA AIRLINES MIDAIR DOOR BLOWOUT. AND THAT COMES AS TWO MAJOR

AIRLINES ARE NOW VOICING GROWING CONCERNS ABOUT THE AVIATION. SO OUR TRANSPORTATION REPORTER SAM SWEENEY IS GOING TO JOIN US NOW FOR MUCH ON THIS. SAM, WE’VE GOT BOEING CEO DAVE CALHOUN. HE’S ON CAPITOL MEETING WITH SENATORS RIGHT NOW. DID WE HAPPEN TO HEAR FROM HIM ON HIS WAY IN?

>> YEAH, HE JUST SPOKE BRIEFLY WITH REPORTERS THERE OUTSIDE SENATOR WARNER’S OFFICE BEFORE GOING IN THAT FIRST MEETING. THESE ARE PRIVATE MEETINGS. HE IS NOT HERE FOR A HEARING, BUT WHAT HE SAID BRIEFLY WHEN HE WALKED IN IS THAT THESE PLANES ARE SAFE. THEY WILL NOT PUT A PLANE

IN THE AIR THAT IS NOT SAFE. AND HE STANDS THEIR PRODUCT. BUT AS YOU CAN IMAGINE, DAVE CALHOUN, THE CEO OF BOEING, IS NOW ON DAMAGE CONTROL. AND HE HAS TO SPEAK WITH MEMBERS OF CONGRESS TO SHARE WHAT THEY’RE DOING TO MAKE SURE THAT THESE PLANES ARE SAFE, HOW THE INVESTIGATION

IS PROGRESSING, HOW THEY’RE WORKING WITH THE NTSB AND THE FAA TO GET THESE PLANES BACK IN THE AIR. AND THEN, OF COURSE, PROMISE TO THE AMERICAN PUBLIC THAT THESE PLANES THAT EVERYONE IS FLYING ON ARE SAFE. BUT AGAIN, WE STILL DON’T HAVE ANY PLAN FOR THE MAX

NINE TO GET BACK INTO THE AIR ANY TIME SOON. AND WE’VE BEEN HEARING FROM A LOT OF CEOS LATELY, SAM, I KNOW THE ALASKA AIRLINES CEO RECENTLY SPOKE OUT, TOO. HE SAYS HE’S FRUSTRATED. HE SAYS HE’S ANGRY ABOUT THE BLOWOUT. HE ADDED INSPECTORS HAVE NOW FOUND SOME LOOSE BOLTS ON MANY

OF THESE MAX JETS THAT HAVE BEEN GROUNDED SINCE THIS INCIDENT. I KNOW THAT THEY’RE STILL LOOKING THIS, BUT HOW DOES SOMETHING LIKE THIS GET OVERLOOKED? >> THAT’S A GREAT QUESTION. AND BOEING, OF COURSE, IS TRYING TO FIGURE OUT THEMSELVES. THEY ARE THROUGH THEIR PROCESS. THEY’RE GOING THROUGH THEIR SUBCONTRACTORS TO HOW

THESE PLANES ARE PUT TOGETHER, HOW SOMETHING LIKE THIS COULD HAPPENED AND NOT JUST ON ONE PLANE, BUT A NUMBER OF PLANES. AS YOU MENTIONED, FINDING THESE BOLTS AND A NUMBER OF NOT JUST ALASKA PLANES, BUT ALSO DELTA PLANES AND OTHER AIRLINES AROUND THE WORLD. AND THAT’S WHY THEY REMAIN GROUNDED.

YOU REMEMBER NOT TOO LONG AGO, THE FAA SAID SPEED WILL NOT WHEN WE GET THESE PLANES BACK IN THE AIR, BUT WE WILL MAKE SURE THEY ARE SAFE DOING THAT. THE AIRLINES AT SOME POINT ARE GOING TO GET A MANUAL ON HOW TO FIX THIS PROBLEM. BUT IT’S BEEN DAYS SINCE

THAT JANUARY 5TH INCIDENT, AND THEY STILL DON’T HAVE A CONCRETE FIX. AND SOURCES ARE TELLING US THEY DON’T EXPECT THAT TO COME FOR AT LEAST ANOTHER WEEK. AND THEN IT WILL TAKE ABOUT 8 TO 10 HOURS TO REVIEW EACH PLANE THAT ALL OF THESE PLANES ARE BEING SCRUTINIZED.

AND AS WE REPORTED EARLIER THIS WEEK, THEY’RE NOW LOOKING INTO MORE 737 PLANES THAT HAVE BEEN IN SERVICE YEARS TO MAKE SURE THERE ARE NO ISSUES WITH THOSE PLANES AS WELL. IT HAS TO MAKE YOU WONDER IF IT’S THE ONLY ISSUE WITH THESE PLANES. AND WE KNOW THE ALASKA AIRLINES

CEO SAYS HE’S SENDING HIS OWN INSPECTORS TO AUDIT QUALITY CONTROL SYSTEMS. >> UNITED AIRLINES IS QUESTIONING ITS COMMITMENT FOR FUTURE ORDERS HERE. I MEAN, WHAT DOES THE FUTURE LOOK LIKE FOR BOEING WITH ALL THESE ABOUT THEIR QUALITY? >> LOOK, ALASKA AND UNITED, THEY ARE BIG OF BOEING AND THEIR BUSINESSES RELY

ON THESE AIRPLANES. SO WHEN THERE’S AN ISSUE LIKE THIS AND THEY LOSE ALL OF THIS CAPACITY, THAT THE GROUND, ALL THESE PLANES CANCEL THEIR FLIGHTS, THEIR CUSTOMERS BECOME ANGRY. YOU HAVE TO WONDER IF YOU’RE IN A LEADERSHIP POSITION, DO YOU CONTINUE TO STICK WITH BOEING OR DO YOU SAY, HEY,

>> MAKE IT YOUR DAILY FIRST LISTEN WHEREVER YOU GET YOUR PODCASTS. ABC NEWS, AMERICA’S NUMBER ONE SOURCE. I’M GOING TO SAY IT OUT TODAY ON ABC NEWS LIVE. FIRST, TRUMP TAKES NEW HAMPSHIRE. THE DECISIVE WIN PUTS THE FORMER PRESIDENT ON TRACK HIS THIRD STRAIGHT GOP NOMINATION. BUT NIKKI HALEY IS PROMISING

TO KEEP FIGHTING. AS PRESIDENT BIDEN GEARS UP FOR THE GENERAL ELECTION. OUR TEAM BREAKS DOWN THE STATE OF THE RACE. NEW AIRSTRIKES IN IRAQ. OFFICIALS SAY THE ATTACKS TARGETED IRAN BACKED MILITIA GROUPS IN RETALIATION FOR ATTACKS ON AMERICAN TROOPS OVER THE WEEKEND. WHAT’S AT STAKE AS IRAN’S FOREIGN MINISTER WARNS OF THE

DANGER OF, A WIDER WAR. THE CONSUMER ALERT ABOUT PAYMENT APPS. WHY A TOP DISTRICT ATTORNEY SAYS VENMO, ZELLE AND CASH APP ARE LEAVING USERS AT RISK OF FRAUD. AND A SWEET AIRPLANE SURPRISE GOING VIRAL. WHY A SPONTANEOUS ACT OF KINDNESS FOR FIRST TIME PARENTS IS WARMING HEARTS AROUND.

THE WORLD. BUT WE BEGIN WITH FORMER PRESIDENT TRUMP ONE STEP CLOSER TO THE 2024 REPUBLICAN NOMINATION AFTER, A DOUBLE DIGIT WIN IN NEW HAMPSHIRE. >> IT CAN. HE CAME UP SHORT, BUT IS VOWING STAY IN THE RACE AHEAD OF NEXT MONTH’S PRIMARY IN HER HOME STATE OF SOUTH CAROLINA.

MEANWHILE, PRESIDENT BIDEN WON THE DEMOCRATIC NEW HAMPSHIRE PRIMARY EVEN THOUGH HE WASN’T ON THE BALLOT. ABC NEWS SENIOR CONGRESSIONAL CORRESPONDENT HAS THE LATEST FROM MANCHESTER. >> DONALD TRUMP WITH A DECISIVE VICTORY IN THE FIRST IN THE NATION PRIMARY, DEFEATING HIS FORMER U.N. AMBASSADOR, NIKKI HALEY BY MORE THAN

11 POINTS IN NEW HAMPSHIRE. SHE DID VERY POORLY, ACTUALLY. SHE HAD TO WIN. THE GOVERNOR. SHE’S GOING TO WIN. SHE’S GOING TO WIN. SHE’S GOING TO WIN. THEN SHE SHE FAILED BADLY. >> TRUMP NOW BARRELING TOWARD THE REPUBLICAN, SHARING THE STAGE WITH TWO OF HIS FORMER RIVALS, CALLING

ON THE PARTY TO UNIFY AROUND HIM. >> IT IS TIME FOR THE REPUBLICAN TO COALESCE AROUND OUR NOMINEE AND THE NEXT PRESIDENT OF THE UNITED STATES, DONALD TRUMP. BUT HALEY REJECTED THAT, VOWING TO PRESS ON THIS RACE IS FAR FROM OVER. THERE ARE DOZENS OF STATES TO GO, AND THE NEXT ONE IS

MY SWING STATE OF SOUTH CAROLINA, THE FORMER SOUTH CAROLINA GOVERNOR STAKED HER CAMPAIGN ON A STRONG SHOWING HERE, WHO’LL BE WOULD HELP HER PULL OFF A MAJOR UPSET. >> I FEEL CONFIDENT BECAUSE THIS GUY, WE’RE EXCITED. I MEAN, THIS IS WHAT ELECTION NIGHT IS ALL HALEY ARGUE. >> AND SHE’S THE LAST PERSON

STANDING BETWEEN A TRUMP BIDEN WITH DONALD TRUMP. >> YOU HAVE ONE OUT OF CHAOS AFTER ANOTHER. THIS COURT CASE, THAT CONTROVERSY, THIS TWEET, THAT SENIOR MOMENT. YOU CAN’T FIX JOE BIDEN’S CHAOS WITH REPUBLICAN. >> AFTER TWO DISAPPOINTING LOSSES IN IOWA AND NEW HAMPSHIRE. PATH TO THE NOMINATION IS ONLY

GROWING MORE DIFFICULT. AND SHE’S AGAINST HISTORY. NO REPUBLICAN CANDIDATE HAS EVER WON THE FIRST TWO STATES AND WENT ON TO LOSE THE NOMINATION. >> WHEN YOU WIN IOWA AND YOU WIN NEW HAMPSHIRE, THEY’VE NEVER HAD A LOSS. THERE’S NEVER BEEN. SO WE’RE NOT GOING TO BE THE FIRST, I CAN TELL YOU.

HOURS EARLIER, WHEN I ASKED TRUMP ABOUT HALEY IN THE RACE, HE INSISTED HE WASN’T THAT CONCERNED. >> MR. PRESIDENT, IF YOU WERE TO ISSUE A THREAT TO YOU AND I DON’T HEAR HAVING YOU WATCH, IT DOESN’T MATTER. >> BUT WHEN SHE REFUSED TO DROP OUT AFTER HIS, HE LASHED OUT, CALLING HER DELUSIONAL.

>> AND WHEN I WATCHED HER IN THE FANCY DRESS THAT PROBABLY WASN’T SO FANCY COMING UP, I SAID, WHAT’S SHE DOING? >> WE WON. BUT I DON’T GET. >> TOO ANGRY. I GET EVEN. DIANE TRUMP’S SPEECH WAS LIGHT ON THE POLICY, HEAVY ON THE PERSONAL ATTACKS AND GRIEVANCES.

THE FORMER PRESIDENT MAKING FALSE CLAIMS ABOUT EVERYTHING FROM THE 2020 ELECTION TO DEMOCRATIC TO COULD ACTUALLY VOTE IN THE NEW HAMPSHIRE REPUBLICAN PRIMARY. THE HALEY CAMPAIGN WATCHING THAT SPEECH CLOSELY, ISSUING A STATEMENT CALLING IT AN ANGRY RANT, SAYING THE FORMER PRESIDENT OFFERED NOTHING TO THE AMERICAN ABOUT HIS VISION FOR THE FUTURE

OF THE COUNTRY DIANE. >> ALL RIGHT. SENIOR CONGRESSIONAL RACHEL SCOTT, THANK YOU. AND HOST OF THE FIVETHIRTYEIGHT POLITICS PODCAST GALEN DRUKE JOINS ME NOW. KAITLYN, WHAT DOES HALEY’S IN NEW HAMPSHIRE TELL YOU ABOUT HER CHANCES IN THE UPCOMING PRIMARIES, ESPECIALLY SOUTH CAROLINA, HER HOME STATE WHERE SHE SERVED AS GOVERNOR?

YEAH, DIANE IF NIKKI HALEY CAN’T WIN IN NEW HAMPSHIRE, SHE LIKELY CAN’T WIN ANYWHERE. AND I KNOW THAT FOLKS MIGHT BE SAYING WE’VE ONLY SEEN TWO CONTESTS SO FAR. WE’VE GOT 48 MORE TO GO. HOW CAN YOU SAY. WE HAVE A DIPLOMA DIVIDE IN AMERICA, WHICH MEANS

THAT WHETHER OR NOT YOU A FOUR YEAR COLLEGE DEGREE IS SOME SORT OF INDICATION OF HOW VIEW THE WORLD OF POLITICS AND HOW YOU END UP VOTING. AND NEW HAMPSHIRE ON THE SIDE OF THAT DIPLOMA DIVIDE OF A VERY COLLEGE EDUCATED. THAT’S ALSO THE GROUP OF VOTERS THAT NIKKI HALEY DOES REALLY

WELL. I MEAN, IF YOU WERE TRYING TO DEVISE THE BEST POSSIBLE STATE DEMOGRAPHICALLY FOR NIKKI HALEY, IT MIGHT WELL BE NEW HAMPSHIRE. AND SHE DID GET, YOU KNOW, WITHIN ABOUT TEN POINTS. THAT’S BETTER THAN WE EXPECT HER TO GET REALLY ANYWHERE ELSE. BUT THAT’S IN LARGE PART WHY

FOLKS ARE SAYING IF NIKKI HALEY CAN’T PERFORM IN A PLACE, ALL OF THESE UNDECLARED VOTERS CAN JOIN IN WHERE THERE’S A LARGE COLLEGE EDUCATED POPULATION. YOU KNOW, THINK OF THOSE TOWNS ALONG THE SEACOAST WITH COUNTRY CLUBS AND THE ANCESTRAL REPUBLICAN BASE. THOSE ARE THE KINDS OF PEOPLE

WHO TURNED OUT FOR NIKKI HALEY, BUT THEY WEREN’T ENOUGH TO GET HER THE OVER THE BUMP. >> NOW, NEVADA IS. BUT BOTH CANDIDATES ARE FOCUSED ON SOUTH CAROLINA. WHY? WELL, YOU KNOW, THESE PRIMARIES CAN BE FICKLE. >> FOR EXAMPLE, AS YOU SAID, JOE BIDEN WON A PRIMARY, BUT HE

WASN’T EVEN ON THE BALLOT FOR IT. AND SO WHEN IT COMES TO NEVADA, NIKKI HALEY IS COMPETING THE PRIMARY THAT A, WANTS NO DELEGATES. AND DONALD TRUMP IS THE ONLY PERSON COMPETING IN THE CAUCUS WHICH AWARDS ALL OF THE DELEGATES. NOW, PEOPLE CAN MAKE ACCUSATIONS ABOUT WHY IT ENDED UP THIS WAY.

THERE’S PERHAPS A CHANCE THAT NIKKI HALEY DIDN’T SEE HERSELF PERFORMING IN THAT CAUCUS AND SAID, I’D RATHER TRY TO GET A MORAL VICTORY IN A PRIMARY. BUT WE’RE NOW AT A POINT WHERE I DON’T THINK ANYONE’S GOING TO BE PAYING MUCH ATTENTION AT ALL. >> NEVADA. SO WHAT STANDS OUT FROM

THE EXIT POLLS FROM NEW HAMPSHIRE? WHAT DO THEY TELL ABOUT HOW THIS RACE LOOKS GOING FORWARD? >> YEAH, AND IF I CAN, THIS MIGHT BE WHERE I TURN A LITTLE BIT TO, THE GENERAL ELECTION. YOU KNOW, IF THINGS PLAY OUT AS WE EXPECT, WHILE THE PRIMARY IS NOT TECHNICALLY OVER,

IN MANY WAYS, WE’RE STARTING TO TURN OUR FOCUS A TRUMP BIDEN MATCH. AND WHAT I SAW IN THE EXIT POLLS LAST NIGHT WAS, I THINK, INDICATIVE OF HOW AN IMPORTANT INDICATOR IN THE 2024 ELECTION, WHICH IS THIS THE TRUMP THE PEOPLE WHO VOTED TRUMP WERE VERY ENTHUSIASTIC IN THE EXIT POLLS.

THE FOLKS WHO VOTED FOR NIKKI HALEY WERE LESS ENTHUSIASTIC. >> AND I THINK THAT THAT GROUP OF VOTERS THAT IS NOT NECESSARILY ENTHUSIASTIC FOR HALEY, BUT WERE TURNING OUT ANYWAY ARE FOLKS WHO ARE LOOKING FOR ALTERNATIVE TO BIDEN AND TRUMP. WE KNOW FROM POLLS ABOUT 60% OF AMERICANS DON’T WANT

TRUMP TO RUN AGAIN. ABOUT 60% OF AMERICANS DON’T WANT BIDEN TO RUN AGAIN. NEW HAD AN ALTERNATIVE LAST NIGHT. THEY HAD NIKKI HALEY. AND WE SAW FOLKS TURN OUT, EVEN IF THEY WEREN’T SUPER ENTHUSIASTIC TO THAT ALTERNATIVE. AS WE GO FORWARD INTO THE GENERAL ELECTION, AMERICANS, MANY AMERICANS WILL

NOT HAVE THAT ALTERNATIVE. THEY WILL HAVE TO EITHER CHOOSE BETWEEN BIDEN AND TRUMP, NOT VOTE OR VOTE THIRD PARTY AND HOW THAT SORT OF MIDDLE SEGMENT OF THE THAT DOESN’T PARTICULARLY LIKE TRUMP AND DOESN’T PARTICULARLY LIKE BIDEN VOTES IN 2024 COULD GO A LONG WAY TO DETERMINING WHO ULTIMATELY WINS IN NOVEMBER.

>> BIG QUESTION MARK OVER THAT GROUP THAT. SO WHAT ARE YOU WATCHING FOR AS WE LOOK AHEAD TO SOUTH CAROLINA? >> YOU KNOW, I’M WATCHING FOR WHAT NIKKI HALEY DOES. CANDIDATES SAY A LOT OF THINGS WHEN THEY’RE ON THE CAMPAIGN TRAIL, LIKE RONDA, WHO SUGGESTED THAT HE WAS GOING

TO STAY IN THE RACE AFTER HE CAME IN SECOND IN IOWA. NIKKI HALEY SUGGESTED THE SAME LAST NIGHT. SHE SAID I’M GOING HOME TO SWEET SOUTH CAROLINA. THERE’S A MONTH BEFORE SOUTH CAROLINA VOTES. AND WHAT I EXPECT WILL HAPPEN IS SHE’S GOING TO GO CAMPAIGN IN SOUTH CAROLINA THE WAY SHE

DID IN NEW HAMPSHIRE, GO FROM TOWN TO TOWN TO TOWN, DO A LOT OF HANDSHAKING, BABY KISSING AND SO ON. AND SHE’S GOING TO SEE IF THOSE POLLS MOVE, BECAUSE RIGHT NOW SHE’S ALMOST 40 POINTS BEHIND DONALD TRUMP IN HER HOME STATE. AND I WOULD SAY IF IN A COUPLE

OF WEEKS WE DON’T SEE THOSE POLLS MOVE IN HER DIRECTION, THERE IS THERE’S GOING TO BE SOME PRESSURE TO GET OUT BECAUSE YOU DON’T LIKE FOR THE FUTURE YOUR POLITICAL CAREER. YOU DON’T WANT TO PERFORM POORLY IN YOUR HOME STATE TO THE TUNE OF MAYBE EVEN 40 PERCENTAGE POINTS. >> RIGHT. ALL RIGHT.

HOST OF THE FIVETHIRTYEIGHT POLITICS PODCAST, CALENDAR OF THANKSGIVING. AND ALWAYS GREAT TO GET YOUR ANALYSIS ON, THESE THINGS. >> THANK YOU. ALWAYS GOOD TO CHAT. MEANWHILE, U.S. AIRSTRIKES ARE TARGETING IRAN BACKED MILITIA GROUPS. THIS TIME IN IRAQ. TWO U.S. OFFICIALS SAY IT WAS IN RETALIATION FOR ATTACKS ON AMERICAN TROOPS OVER

THE WEEKEND. NOW, IRAN IS WARNING OF THE DANGER OF A WAR. ABC CHIEF GLOBAL AFFAIRS CORRESPONDENT MARTHA RADDATZ HAS, THE LATEST. >> U.S. CENTRAL COMMAND ANNOUNCING STRIKE IN YEMEN TARGETING TWO HOUTHI ANTI-SHIP MISSILES POSING AN IMMINENT THREAT. THIS IS THE 10TH MILITARY AIR STRIKE IN THE REGION. A SEPARATE OPERATION TARGETED

THREE SITES IN IRAQ, INCLUDING A WEAPONS STORAGE FACILITY, HOUSING, ARMED DRONES AND MISSILES. THE STRIKES IN DIRECT RETALIATION FOR ATTACKS ON AMERICAN TROOPS OVER THE WEEKEND, INCLUDING AT THE AL-ASAD AIR BASE, WHERE U.S. PERSONNEL SUFFERED TRAUMATIC BRAIN INJURIES. >> AND IN THE RED SEA, THE U.S.

ALSO TRADING FIRE WITH THE IRAN BACKED HOUTHIS, IRAN’S FOREIGN MINISTER PRAISING THE YEMENI REBELS ATTACKS ON COMMERCIAL AND TARGETING OF U.S. NAVY SHIPS. HE CALLED THEM BRAVE BUT DENYING EVIDENCE HIS COUNTRY IS SUPPLYING WEAPONS. >> THE PENTAGON SENT OUT PICTURES OF WEAPONS SHOWING THEY WERE FROM IRAN.

>> YOU KNOW, IT’S A SHOW THEY PUT ON TV. HE CLAIMS AMERICAN OFFICIALS HAVE SENT MULTIPLE PRIVATE MESSAGES TO IRAN WARNING AGAINST ESCALATION. THERE A RED LINE FOR IRAN WHERE YOU WOULD ENTER A WAR WITH THE U.S.. >> SATURDAY, THE MINISTER THE DANGER OF A WIDER WAR HAS

INCREASED AND THAT THE THREAT WILL PERSIST AS LONG AS THE U.S. STANDS BEHIND ISRAEL. THE FOREIGN MINISTER, THE WAR IN GAZA FOR ALL THESE MILITANT ATTACKS. BUT EXPECT THESE RETALIATORY STRIKES TO CONTINUE SINCE DETERRENCE HAS YET WORKED DIANE. CHIEF GLOBAL AFFAIRS CORRESPONDENT MARTHA RADDATZ. THANK YOU. >> AND IT’S TIME NOW FOR

WORLDVIEW, WHERE WE BRING YOU THE LATEST HEADLINES FOR A MONSTER WAVE IN THE MARSHALL ISLANDS TO MEXICO’S FIGHT AGAINST GUN VIOLENCE AND UNREST IN HAITI. OUR FOREIGN CORRESPONDENTS TRACKING THE BIGGEST STORIES FROM AROUND THE WORLD. AND WE BEGIN WITH THE LATEST. >> THE ISRAEL-HAMAS WAR ON THAT GOVERNMENT ALONG THE ISRAEL-LEBANON TENSIONS

HERE HAVE BEEN HIGH FOR MONTHS NOW BETWEEN ISRAEL AND HEZBOLLAH, BUT THE FOCUS RIGHT NOW IS ON POSSIBLE NEGOTIATIONS BETWEEN ISRAEL AND HAMAS OVER A HOSTAGE RELEASE AND A CEASE FIRE. >> WE’VE HEARD THAT THERE ARE MORE. ISRAEL OFFERING A CEASE FIRE FOR A MONTH OR TWO MONTHS IN EXCHANGE FOR THE HOSTAGES.

HAMAS APPARENTLY REJECTING THAT. BUT THERE IS MORE MOMENTUM ON THE RIGHT NOW, ALTHOUGH MULTIPLE ISRAELI SOURCES TELL US RIGHT NOW. THEY ARE STILL FAR FROM A DEAL. BUT U.S. SPECIAL BRAD MCGURK IS IN THE REGION. HE’LL GO TO EGYPT AND TO TRY TO MOVE THESE NEGOTIATIONS ALONG. THERE’S A TREMENDOUS AMOUNT

OF PRESSURE TO GET IT DONE ON. >> BRITT CLENNETT IN HONG KONG, THE DESTRUCTION LEFT BY A SERIES OF GIGANTIC, UNEXPECTED WAVES THAT SWAMPED THE MARSHALL ISLANDS IN THE SOUTH PACIFIC. IS EXPECTED TO TAKE MONTHS TO REPAIR. DRAMATIC VIDEO CAPTURES THE MOMENT A WALL OF WATER SUDDENLY COMES RUSHING INTO

A U.S. FACILITY, SMASHING INTO THE DOORS OF THE DINING HALL AND SENDING SURGING. A SECOND WAVE INUNDATING THE ROOM, TAKING OUT THE WINDOWS. PEOPLE THERE SCRAMBLING TO EVACUATE. MINOR INJURIES REPORTED, BUT THE WAVES DID SERIOUS DAMAGE TO SEVERAL LOCATIONS. THE NORTHERN IRELAND OF ROY MOORE, ACCORDING TO THE U.S. ARMY.

NOW, THIS IS IMPORTANT BASE HOME TO THE MILITARY SPACE TRACKING EQUIPMENT. BUT THE MARSHALL ISLANDS ARE CONSIDERED VERY MUCH AT THE FRONTLINES OF CLIMATE CHANGE, WITH RESEARCH SHOWING THAT RISING SEA LEVELS CONTRIBUTE TO POWERFUL, DESTRUCTIVE WAVES AND MORE SEVERE FLOODING IN COASTAL AREAS. I’M MATT RIVERS IN MEXICO CITY.

>> A FEW YEARS AGO, MEXICO’S GOVERNMENT DID WHAT IT WAS A HISTORIC STEP. THE FIRST COUNTRY THAT WOULD SUE U.S. BASED GUN MANUFACTURERS AND A DISTRIBUTOR FOR WHAT MEXICO CLAIMS ARE THOSE COMPANIES ROLL, OR AT LEAST IN PART THE ONGOING CARTEL VIOLENCE HERE IN MEXICO. >> BACK IN 2022, A U.S.

DISTRICT COURT THREW OUT THAT LAWSUIT, CLAIMING MEXICO DIDN’T HAVE STANDING TO SUE. BUT IN A WIN THIS WEEK FOR MEXICO, THE FIRST U.S. COURT OF APPEALS OUT OF MASSACHUSETTS RULED THAT MEXICO DID, IN FACT, HAVE THE RIGHT TO SUE, SENDING THAT CASE BACK DOWN TO THE LOWER COURT FOR PROCEEDINGS TO CONTINUE.

MEANWHILE, MEXICO ALSO DEMANDING THE U.S. INVESTIGATE HOW WEAPONS THAT IT SAYS WERE SPECIFIC DESIGNATED FOR U.S. MILITARY USE ONLY HAVE BEEN FOUND RECENTLY. DIANE, AT CARTEL RELATED CRIME SCENES HERE IN THE COUNTRY. AND MEANWHILE, HAITI IS FACING ESCALATING VIOLENCE. WHAT’S THE LATEST THERE? YEAH, WE’VE BEEN TRACKING THIS

ONGOING POVERTY AND, OF COURSE, GANG RELATED VIOLENCE IN HAITI. AND WE’RE GETTING MORE DATA ABOUT THAT FROM THIS LATEST U.N. REPORT OUT THIS WEEK SAYING THAT GANG RELATED HOMICIDES NEARLY DOUBLED IN 2023 AS COMPARED TO THE PREVIOUS YEAR. ROUGHLY 5000 PEOPLE KILLED AS A RESULT OF GANG RELATED VIOLENCE IN 2023.

KIDNAPINGS ALSO ON THE RISE. AND WE KNOW THOSE TWO ISSUES REMAIN A PROBLEM DURING THESE LAST FEW WEEKS AS WE BEGIN THE NEW YEAR. ALSO, WE’RE WATCHING LATER ON THIS AND A KEY VOTE SET TO TAKE PLACE IN THE KENYAN HIGH COURT. THAT HIGH COURT SET TO DETERMINE WHETHER IT

IS CONSTITUTIONAL FOR THAT COUNTRY’S GOVERNMENT TO SEND 1000 OF ITS NATIONAL POLICE OFFICERS AS, A PART OF A U.N. AUTHORIZED SECURITY INTERVENTION FORCE AS A VERY VOTE. >> WE’RE GOING TO BE WATCHING VERY CLOSELY, DIANE. ALL RIGHT. MATTRIVERS BRITT CLENNETT YOU BOTH. >> COMING UP, KY IS RECALLING

MORE THAN 100,000 CARS AND SUVS BECAUSE OF A POTENTIALLY DEADLY . FIND OUT WHICH VEHICLES ARE IMPACTED. ALSO, A NEW WARNING ABOUT POPULAR PAYMENT APPS. WHY THE MANHATTAN D.A.

IN THE RACE AHEAD OF NEXT MONTH’S IN HER HOME STATE OF SOUTH CAROLINA. MEANWHILE, PRESIDENT BIDEN WON THE DEMOCRATIC NEW HAMPSHIRE PRIMARY EVEN THOUGH HE WAS NOT ON BALLOT. JOINING US NOW, THE HOST OF THE FIVETHIRTYEIGHT POLITICS PODCAST, GALEN DRUKE, FOR A DEBRIEF OF ALL OF THIS IN NEW HAMPSHIRE.

THANKS SO MUCH FOR BEING HERE, GALEN. ALWAYS GOOD. >> SEE YOU. SO, NIKKI HALEY, DOUBLE DIGIT LOSS DID OVER A LITTLE BIT ACCORDING TO RECENT EXPECTATIONS HERE. WHAT ARE THE TAKEAWAYS FROM WHAT WE SAW IN NEW HAMPSHIRE? >> YES. SO GOING INTO NEW HAMPSHIRE, THE POLLING AVERAGE SHOWED

THAT TRUMP WAS LEADING BY ABOUT 18 POINTS. HE ULTIMATELY BY ABOUT 11 POINTS. THAT’S AN ERROR FOR A PRIMARY. SEVEN POINTS MAY SEEM LIKE A LOT, BUT THIS HAPPENS ALL THE TIME IN PRIMARIES THAT ARE PRETTY VOLATILE. BUT WHAT I’M LOOKING AT HERE IS A RECORD TURNOUT FOR UNDECLARED VOTERS.

NEW HAMPSHIRE, OF COURSE, UNDECLARED VOTERS CAN CAST BALLOTS IN THE REPUBLICAN PRIMARY AND ALS A REALLY HIGH TURNOUT OVERALL, 33% OF ELIGIBLE VOTERS IN NEW HAMPSHIRE TURNED OUT TO VOTE IN JUST THE REPUBLICAN PRIMARY. WE’RE NOT EVEN TALKING ABOUT THE DEMOCRATIC PRIMARY. >> AND WHAT THAT TELLS ME

IS THAT THERE’S A SEGMENT OF THE ELECTORATE THAT DOESN’T IDENTIFY AS REPUBLICAN OR DEMOCRAT, THAT IS LOOKING FOR AN ALTERNATIVE TO BIDEN AND TRUMP. AND THEY OUT IN FORCE LAST NIGHT. BUT I THINK THE REALITY GOING FORWARD IS THAT A LOT OF AMERICAN VOTERS, BY THE TIME THEY GET TO VOTE, WHETHER

IT’S IN THE PRIMARY OR IN THE GENERAL, MAY NOT HAVE THAT ALTERNATIVE OF. NIKKI HALEY. AND SO THOSE MAYBE MORE MODERATE VOTERS, THOSE MORE INDEPENDENT VOTERS MAY BE STUCK EITHER VOTING FOR BIDEN, FOR TRUMP, NOT CASTING A BALLOT AT ALL OR VOTING THIRD PARTY. >> WELL, ULTIMATELY, THE PEOPLE

THAT VERY WELL COULD DECIDE THIS GENERAL ELECTION WE ALREADY SEEING PRESIDENT BIDEN IS POINTING TO THIS CHUNK OF VOTERS IN NEW HAMPSHIRE SAYING THE FORMER TRUMP IS HAVING SOME DIFFICULTY WITH THEM. BUT WHAT DOES THE DATA ACTUALLY SHOW? >> YES. SO I THINK THAT YOU COULD SAY THAT BOTH LIKELY NOMINEES

ARE HAVING SOME DIFFICULTY. THERE IS IF YOU LOOK AT FAVORABILITY NUMBERS FOR BOTH BIDEN AND TRUMP, BIDEN IS 15 POINTS UNDERWATER. TRUMP IS NINE POINTS UNDERWATER . SO THESE ARE BOTH ALREADY PRETTY UNPOPULAR CANDIDATES IN HEAD TO HEAD POLLING TODAY. NOW, IT’S TEN MONTHS TOO EARLY TO REALLY FOCUS ON THIS.

DONALD TRUMP LEADS BY 1 TO 2 POINTS NATIONALLY AND EVEN MORE THAN THAT IN THE BATTLEGROUND STATES. SO I THINK BIDEN CANNOT REST EASY JUST BASED ON NEW HAMPSHIRE. HIS NUMBERS HAVE HELD UP WELL IN NEW HAMPSHIRE, I SHOULD SAY THAT WHEN YOU LOOK HYPOTHETICAL, HAD HAD POLLING THERE, HE HAS PERFORMED WELL

AND IT’S IN LARGE PART IT’S A VERY WHITE STATE AND IT’S A VERY COLLEGE EDUCATED STATE. AND THOSE ARE SOME OF THE VOTERS WITH WHOM HIS FAVORABLE NUMBERS HAVE UP BEST. BUT WHEN YOU LOOK AT ARIZONA, GEORGIA, MICHIGAN, WISCONSIN, THINGS LOOK A LOT HARDER FOR HIM.

AND SO HE CAN POINT FINGERS AT TRUMP ON LAST NIGHT AND MAKE THIS ARGUMENT. BUT AS WE MOVE INTO ON THE GENERAL ELECTION, I THINK HE’S GOING TO HAVE TO TAKE A HARD LOOK IN THE MIRROR, TOO, AND SEE IF HE IS ABLE TO SORT OF DRAW IN THOSE

VOTERS THAT MAY NOT LIKE EITHER BIDEN MORE TRUMP AND QUICK WITH THIS DOWN TIME UNTIL SOUTH CAROLINA, WHAT ARE WE LOOKING TOWARD IN THE MEANTIME? I THINK IT’S A BIG QUESTION ABOUT WHETHER OR NOT NIKKI HALEY MAKES IT SOUTH CAROLINA. SHE SAID DURING HER SPEECH LAST NIGHT THAT SHE WAS GOING

TO SWEEP HOME SOUTH CAROLINA. BUT CANDIDATES SAY A LOT OF THINGS ON THE CAMPAIGN TRAIL AND I THINK WE SHOULD LOOK CRITICALLY AT THE SITUATION. SHE HAS A FUTURE IN POLITICS, OR AT LEAST SHE HOPES SHE DOES. AND RIGHT NOW, SHE TRAILS DONALD TRUMP BY ALMOST 40 POINTS IN HER HOME STATE

IN THE POLLS. >> AND WHO WANTS TO MAKE A CASE FOR A FUTURE PRESIDENTIAL RUN? DOESN’T WANT TO HAVE THAT KIND OF PERFORMANCE IN THEIR HOME STATE. >> SO WE’LL SEE IF SHE ENDS UP MAKING IT WOULD BE. VERY INTERESTING. GALEN DRUKE, THE HOST OF THE FIVETHIRTYEIGHT POLITICS PODCAST.

THANKS SO MUCH FOR BEING HERE. THANK YOU. FOR MUCH MORE ANALYSIS ON WHAT’S HAPPENED IN NEW HAMPSHIRE, WE HAVE EDITOR OF THE NATIONAL REVIEW, RAMESH PONNURU, AND DEMOCRATIC JULIE RIGG LYNSKEY JOINING US NOW FOR MORE REACTION. LET’S START WITH YOU. HOW DOES NIKKI HALEY GO FORWARD IN THIS RACE?

WELL, LOOKING AHEAD TO THIS PRIMARY IN HER STATE OF SOUTH CAROLINA, WELL, I THINK IT’S GOING TO BE VERY DIFFICULT FOR HER. I THINK THERE’S GOING TO BE INTENSE PRESSURE FROM THE REPUBLICAN PARTY, FROM PARTY OFFICIALS, MAYBE EVEN FROM VOTERS, SAYING SHE NEEDS TO GET OUT OF THE RACE.

>> THIS IS TRUMP’S NOMINATION AND THE PARTY NEEDS TO UNIFY AND SHE’S GOING TO PUSH BACK, SAYING THAT IT’S A LITTLE BIT ABSURD TO SAY THAT AFTER ONLY TWO STATES HAVE WEIGHED IN. THAT’S WHAT SHE SAID NIGHT. BUT I THINK THAT THAT’S GOING TO BE A REAL, REAL UPHILL CLIMB

JUST GETTING THE HEARING OVER THE NEXT MONTH. IF SHE DOES THAT, THEN SHE CAN MAKE HER CASE. SHE CAN BE THERE IN SOUTH CAROLINA. SHE’S GOT TIME. SHE CAN BE THERE IN A WAY THAT SHE’S BEEN IN NEW HAMPSHIRE AND MAYBE CHIP AWAY AT SOME OF THOSE NUMBERS.

>> IN FACT, IT’S SO MUCH OF AN UPHILL CLIMB THAT ON THE DEMOCRATIC SIDE, PRESIDENT BIDEN IS ALREADY LOOKING AHEAD TO THE GENERAL ELECTION, JULY. HE SAID AFTER LAST NIGHT’S RESULTS, TRUMP WILL BE THE REPUBLICAN NOMINEE. HOW DOES THE PRESIDENT PREPARE FOR THAT? >> WELL, I THINK THE PRESIDENT’S BEEN PREPARING

FOR FOR YEARS BECAUSE THERE’S NOBODY IN THE REAL WORLD WHO BELIEVES ANYBODY COULD BEAT DONALD TRUMP IN A REPUBLICAN PRIMARY. IT’S BECOME LESS OF A POLITICAL PARTY, OF A CULT SERVICE OF DONALD TRUMP. AND THE PRESIDENT KNOWS THAT, AND SO DOES THE FORMER PRESIDENT. >> YOU KNOW, I THINK PRESIDENT TRUMP IS THE

CANDIDATE THAT PRESIDENT BIDEN WANTS TO RUN AGAIN AGAINST. HE DID IT SUCCESSFULLY FOUR YEARS AGO, AND HE WILL DO ,I THINK THE WHITE HOUSE BELIEVES NOW. AND DESPITE THE POLL NUMBERS WHICH SOMETIMES FLUCTUATE FROM FROM WORST TO BAD, DONALD TRUMP IS REALLY CHALLENGED IN THIS ELECTION BECAUSE IF YOU LOOK AT WHAT HAPPENED

IN NEW HAMPSHIRE, HE GOT ONLY 74% OF REPUBLICAN VOTERS. THAT THAT MORE THAN A QUARTER OF ALL REPUBLICANS JUST WILL NOT VOTE FOR DONALD TRUMP. 100% NAME SATURATION. THAT’S SOMETHING THE WHITE IS PAYING ATTENTION TO. IT’S PAYING ATTENTION TO HOW POORLY HE DID AMONGST THE THIRD MODERATES IN HAMPSHIRE, WHERE

HE DID AMONG COLLEGE REPUBLICANS AND POORLY HE DID AMONG INDEPENDENT VOTERS. ARE ALL THINGS THAT NOBODY ELSE HAD PROBLEMS THAT NOBODY ELSE BUT TRUMP CAN POSSIBLY HAVE. AND SO AS A RESULT, I THINK THIS IS SOMETHING THE WHITE HOUSE IS PROBABLY NOT JUST PREPARED FOR BUT EXCITED ABOUT.

>> RAMESH WE DID SEE THE FORMER PRESIDENT COMPLAINING DURING THE NEW HAMPSHIRE PRIMARY YESTERDAY HOW INDEPENDENTS COULD VOTE. SOUTH CAROLINA IS A LITTLE BIT UNIQUE IN THAT THE DEMOCRATIC AND REPUBLICAN PRIMARIES THERE ARE STAGGERED. THEY ARE WEEKS FROM EACH OTHER, WHICH ALLOWS ANY VOTER WHO DOESN’T FIRST CAST A BALLOT

IN THE DEMOCRATIC PRIMARY TO VOTE IN THE REPUBLICAN IF THEY CHOOSE. DOES THAT BENEFIT TRUMP OR HALEY? >> IS THERE ANY KIND OF STRATEGY THERE? I THINK AT THIS POINT, IT’S PRETTY CLEAR THAT TRUMP BENEFITS THE MORE CLOSED REPUBLICAN CONTEST. IT’S DIFFERENT THAN 2016 WHEN HE WAS REGULARLY WINNING INDEPENDENTS.

ANYONE INDEPENDENTS IN NEW HAMPSHIRE, 2016. NOT THIS TIME AROUND. BUT I THINK OF THE THINGS THAT SHOWS AND JULIE WAS IT WAS GETTING RIGHT. THAT POINT IS THAT THERE ARE SOME VULNERABILITIES BEING EXPOSED HERE IN THE GENERAL ELECTION. I AGREE WITH HER. THERE IS A KIND CULTISH ELEMENT TO TRUMP’S FOLLOWING, BUT THERE

ARE A LOT REPUBLICANS WHO ARE NOT IN THE CULT AND CERTAINLY A LOT OF INDEPENDENTS WHO HAVE BEEN OPEN TO BACKING REPUBLICANS IN THE PAST. THAT’S GOING BE A PROBLEM FOR THEM. OF COURSE, BIDEN HAS TO SOLIDIFY HIS OWN SIDE AND HE’S GOT SOME PROBLEMS ON THE LEFT RIGHT NOW.

GOING TO BE LOOKING FOR IN THE RESULTS THERE? ABSOLUTELY CRITICAL. I MEAN, CRITICAL FOR THE PRESIDENT TO HAVE A STRONG SHOWING AMONG AFRICAN-AMERICAN VOTERS WHO ARE THE BACKBONE OF NOT JUST THE SOUTH CAROLINA DEMOCRATIC BASE, BUT ALSO THE DEMOCRATIC BASE. NO DEMOCRATIC PRESIDENT HAS EVER WON AN ELECTION.

LYNDON JOHNSON, I BELIEVE, WITHOUT WITH JUST A MAJORITY OF WHITE VOTERS. SO AFRICAN-AMERICAN VOTERS AND PEOPLE OF COLOR GENERALLY ARE THE BACKBONE OF THIS PARTY. AND SOUTH CAROLINA WILL TELL THE TALE. IF HE A STRONG SHOWING AMONG AFRICAN-AMERICAN VOTERS, SPECIFICALLY AMONG AFRICAN-AMERICAN WOMEN, THAT WILL REALLY TELL THE TALE

OF HOW HE’S GOING TO DO GOING FORWARD IN THE GENERAL ELECTION. IT IS CRITICAL FOR HIM TO MAKE SURE THAT THAT BASE TURNS OUT NOT JUST IN SOUTH CAROLINA NEXT MONTH, BUT ALSO IN NEXT NOVEMBER. >> AND WE WILL BE WATCHING VERY CLOSELY. ROMANSKI AND RAMESH PONNURU, THANK YOU VERY MUCH FOR

YOUR TIME. MOVING OVERSEAS NOW, THE DIRECTOR OF THE U.N. RELIEF AND WORKS AGENCY SAYS ONE OF ITS BUILDINGS SHELTERING HUNDREDS OF PALESTINIANS HAS BEEN HIT AS FIGHTING ESCALATES IN GAZA. THE AGENCY, TWO TANK ROUNDS HIT ITS TRAINING CENTER IN KHAN YUNIS, LEAVING LEAST NINE PEOPLE DEAD AND 75 MORE INJURED.

MEANWHILE, THE WHITE HOUSE SAYS SERIOUS DISCUSSIONS ARE UNDERWAY ABOUT TRYING TO GET ANOTHER PAUSE IN FIGHTING TO SECURE THE RELEASE OF HOSTAGES. AND NEW U.S. AIRSTRIKES ARE TARGETING IRAN BACKED MILITIA GROUPS, THIS TIME IN IRAQ. TWO U.S. OFFICIALS SAY THIS WAS IN RETALIATION FOR ATTACKS ON AMERICAN TROOPS OVER THE WEEKEND.

NOW, IRAN IS WARNING OF DANGER OF A WIDER WAR. ABC CHIEF GLOBAL AFFAIRS CORRESPONDENT MARTHA RADDATZ HAS THE LATEST. >> U.S. CENTRAL COMMAND ANNOUNCING ANOTHER STRIKE IN YEMEN TARGETING TWO HOUTHI ANTI-SHIP POSING AN IMMINENT THREAT. THIS IS THE 10TH MILITARY AIR STRIKE IN THE REGION. A SEPARATE OPERATION TUESDAY

TARGETED THREE SITES IN IRAQ, INCLUDING A WEAPONS STORAGE FACILITY, HOUSING, ARMED DRONES ,MISSILES. THE STRIKES IN DIRECT RETALIATION FOR ATTACKS ON AMERICAN TROOPS OVER THE WEEKEND, INCLUDING AT THE AL-ASAD AIR BASE, WHERE FOUR U.S. PERSONNEL SUFFERED BRAIN INJURIES. >> AND IN THE SEA, THE U.S. ALSO TRADING FIRE WITH THE BACKED HOUTHIS.

IRAN’S FOREIGN MINISTER PRAISING YEMENI REBELS ATTACKS ON COMMERCIAL VESSELS AND TARGETING OF U.S. NAVY SHIPS. HE CALLED THEM BRAVE, BUT DENYING HIS COUNTRY IS SUPPLYING THE WEAPONS. THE PENTAGON SENT OUT PICTURES OF THOSE WEAPONS SHOWING THEY WERE FROM IRAN. >> YOU KNOW, IT’S A SHOW THEY PUT ON TV. HE CLAIMS AMERICAN OFFICIALS

HAVE SENT MULTIPLE PRIVATE MESSAGES TO IRAN WARNING AGAINST ESCALATION. >> IS THERE A RED LINE FOR IRAN WHERE HE WOULD ENTER A WAR WITH THE U.S.? >> THAT’S THE MINISTER SAYING THE DANGER OF THE WIDER WAR HAS INCREASED AND THAT THE THREAT WILL PERSIST AS LONG AS THE U.S. STANDS BEHIND ISRAEL.

OUR THANKS TO OUR CHIEF GLOBAL AFFAIRS CORRESPONDENT, MARTHA RADDATZ. THAT REPORT. MARTHA, THANK YOU. AND AS WE MENTIONED, NATIONAL SECURITY COUNCIL JOHN KIRBY SAYS THE U.S. IS IN SERIOUS DISCUSSIONS NOW ABOUT TRYING TO GET ANOTHER PAUSE IN FIGHTING BETWEEN ISRAEL AND HAMAS TRYING TO SECURE THE RELEASE OF THE REMAINING HOSTAGES.

SO WE WANT TO BRING IN ABC NEWS WHITE HOUSE CORRESPONDENT KAREN TRAVERS FOR MORE NOW. SO, KAREN, WHAT THE LATEST HERE ON THESE EFFORTS TO FREE THE HOSTAGES? >> TREVOR, THERE WERE REPORTS THAT THERE ARE CONVERSATIONS ABOUT A POTENTIAL TWO MONTH PAUSE IN THE FIGHTING BETWEEN ISRAEL AND HAMAS IN TO SECURE

THE RELEASE OF ALL THE REMAINING HOSTAGES HELD IN GAZA. THAT WOULD ALSO ALLOW MORE AID TO GET INTO GAZA. NOW, THE WHITE HOUSE YESTERDAY WAS NOT CONFIRMING THAT TIMEFRAME. NATIONAL SECURITY SPOKESMAN JOHN KIRBY WOULD NOT SAY WHETHER THAT IS SOMETHING THAT IS ON THE TABLE, BUT DID SAY THERE ARE SERIOUS DISCUSSIONS UNDERWAY

ABOUT ANOTHER LONG PAUSE. AND BRAD MCGURK, A SENIOR WHITE HOUSE OFFICIAL, IS IN THE REGION NOW ENGAGED IN THOSE CONVERSATIONS. THE WHITE HOUSE WILL NOT, THOUGH, WHERE THEY STAND, BUT SAYS THAT THIS IS, OF COURSE, A TOP PRIORITY, THE PRESIDENT AND THE ADMINISTRATION, TO TRY

AND EXTEND THE PAUSE TO BE ABLE TO GET HOSTAGES OUT AND, OF COURSE, GET MORE AID IN TO THE PEOPLE IN GAZA WHO DESPERATELY NEED IT RIGHT NOW. >> AND WHAT WE HAVE TO CARE AND DO WANT TO TALK ABOUT SOME ISSUES CLOSER TO HOME HERE AS WE’VE BEEN WATCHING THE IOWA

CAUCUS, THE NEW HAMPSHIRE PRIMARY, WHAT A LOT OF REPUBLICAN VOTERS ARE SAYING, IT’S A TOP ISSUE FOR THEM IS IMMIGRATION. AND I KNOW THAT THE WHITE HOUSE HAS TOLD YOU THAT THEY’RE TO CONTINUE TO BE OPTIMISTIC ABOUT A BORDER DEAL AS THE SENATE NEGOTIATORS APPEAR TO BE MAYBE INCHING CLOSER TO AN AGREEMENT.

WHAT IS THE LATEST THERE? >> THEY’RE GETTING CLOSER. THERE WAS SOME TALK ABOUT MAYBE EVEN HAVING VOTE THIS WEEK. THAT SEEMS VERY OPTIMISTIC BECAUSE THERE HAS BEEN NO BILL THAT’S EVEN BEEN ANNOUNCED AND NO AGREEMENT YET. >> BUT THERE ARE CERTAINLY OF OPTIMISM ON CAPITOL HILL THAT THEY’RE GETTING CLOSER

TO FINALIZING A DEAL ON BORDER POLICY CHANGES THAT WOULD UNLOCK REPUBLICAN FOR THE UKRAINE AID THAT THE WHITE HOUSE HAS BEEN ASKING FOR. NOW, THIS IS SIGNIFICANT AMOUNT OF MONEY, $106 BILLION IS WHAT THE WHITE HOUSE HAS WANTED. 61 BILLION OF THAT WOULD GO TO UKRAINE. THEY ASKED FOR ABOUT $14

BILLION FOR BORDER SECURITY. BUT RIGHT NOW IT LOOKS LIKE WITH THE CHANGES THAT NEGOTIATORS HAVE BEEN TALKING ABOUT BEHIND CLOSED DOORS, THAT PRICE TAG COULD COME IN SIGNIFICANTLY HIGHER ON THAT. SO NOW, TREVOR, THE BIG DEAL WOULD BE TRYING TO GET ALL OF THE NUMBERS TO WORK. THE WHITE HOUSE SAYS

THEY’RE GOING TO REMAIN OPTIMISTIC THAT THEY’RE GETTING CLOSER TO THE FINISH LINE, BUT THEY’RE NOT GOING TO TALK ABOUT WHAT IS BEING DISCUSSED RIGHT NOW BEHIND THE SCENES. JUST GOT TO GET THOSE DARN NUMBERS TO WORK. KAREN TRAVERS FOR US AT THE WHITE HOUSE. KAREN, THANK YOU SO MUCH.

AND JUST DOWN THE ROAD FROM KAREN, ACTUALLY, BOEING IS FACING SOME NEW SCRUTINY ABOUT THE SAFETY OF ITS PASSENGER JET. SO THE CEO IS MEETING WITH LAWMAKERS ON CAPITOL HILL TODAY, THE WAKE OF THE ALASKA AIRLINES MIDAIR DOOR BLOWOUT. AND THAT COMES AS TWO MAJOR AIRLINES ARE NOW VOICING GROWING CONCERNS ABOUT THE

AVIATION GIANT. SO OUR TRANSPORTATION REPORTER SAM SWEENEY IS GOING TO JOIN US NOW FOR MUCH ON THIS, SUZANNE. WE’VE GOT BOEING CEO DAVE CALHOUN. HE’S ON CAPITOL HILL MEETING WITH SENATORS RIGHT NOW. DID WE HAPPEN TO HEAR FROM HIM ON HIS WAY? >> YEAH, HE JUST SPOKE BRIEFLY

WITH REPORTERS THERE OUTSIDE, SENATOR WARNER’S OFFICE BEFORE GOING INTO THAT FIRST MEETING. THESE ARE PRIVATE MEETINGS. HE IS NOT HERE FOR A HEARING. BUT WHAT HE SAID BRIEFLY WHEN HE WALKED IN IS THAT THESE PLANES ARE SAFE. THEY WILL NOT PUT A PLANE IN THE AIR THAT IS NOT SAFE.

AND HE STANDS BEHIND THEIR PRODUCT. BUT AS YOU CAN IMAGINE, THEY’VE CALHOUN, THE CEO OF BOEING, IS NOW ON DAMAGE CONTROL. AND HE HAS TO SPEAK WITH MEMBERS OF CONGRESS TO, SHARE WHAT THEY’RE DOING TO MAKE SURE THAT THESE PLANES ARE SAFE. HOW WILL THE INVESTIGATION IS PROGRESSING, HOW THEY’RE

WORKING WITH THE NTSB AND, THE FAA, TO GET THESE PLANES BACK IN THE AIR, AND THEN, OF COURSE, TO PROMISE TO THE AMERICAN PUBLIC THAT THESE PLANES THAT EVERYONE IS FLYING ON ARE SAFE. BUT AGAIN, WE STILL DON’T HAVE ANY PLAN FOR MAX NINE TO GET BACK IN THERE ANYTIME SOON.

AND WE’VE BEEN HEARING FROM A LOT OF CEOS LATELY, SAM, I KNOW THE ALASKA AIRLINES CEO RECENTLY SPOKE OUT, TOO HE SAYS HE’S FRUSTRATED. HE SAYS HE’S ANGRY ABOUT THE BLOWOUT. HE ADDED INSPECTORS HAVE NOW FOUND SOME LOOSE BOLTS ON MANY OF THESE MAX JETS THAT HAVE BEEN GROUNDED SINCE THIS INCIDENT.

I KNOW THAT THEY’RE STILL LOOKING INTO THIS, BUT HOW DOES SOMETHING LIKE THIS GET OVERLOOKED? A GREAT QUESTION. AND BOEING, OF COURSE, IS TRYING TO FIGURE OUT THEMSELVES. THEY ARE THROUGH THEIR PROCESS. THEY’RE GOING THROUGH THEIR SUBCONTRACTORS TO SEE HOW THESE PLANES ARE PUT TOGETHER, HOW SOMETHING LIKE THIS COULD HAVE HAPPENED NOT

JUST ON ONE PLANE, BUT A NUMBER OF PLANES. AS YOU MENTIONED, THEY’RE LOOSE BOLTS AND A NUMBER OF NOT JUST ALASKA PLANES, BUT ALSO DELTA PLANES AND OTHER AIRLINES AROUND THE WORLD. AND THAT’S WHY THEY REMAIN GROUNDED. YOU REMEMBER NOT TOO LONG AGO, THE FAA SAID SPEED WILL NOT

WHEN WE GET THESE PLANES BACK IN THE AIR, BUT WE WILL MAKE SURE THEY ARE SAFE BEFORE DOING THAT. THE AIRLINES AT SOME POINT ARE GOING TO GET A A MANUAL ON HOW TO FIX THIS PROBLEM. BUT IT’S BEEN DAYS SINCE THAT JANUARY 5TH INCIDENT, AND THEY STILL DON’T HAVE A

CONCRETE FIX. AND SOURCES ARE TELLING US THEY DON’T EXPECT THAT TO COME FOR AT LEAST ANOTHER. AND THEN IT WILL TAKE ABOUT 8 TO 10 HOURS TO REVIEW EACH PLANE. BUT ALL OF THESE PLANES ARE BEING SCRUTINIZED. AND AS WE REPORTED EARLIER THIS WEEK, THEY’RE LOOKING INTO

MORE THAN 37 PLANES THAT HAVE BEEN IN SERVICE FOR YEARS TO MAKE SURE THERE ARE NO ISSUES WITH THOSE PLANES. WELL. IT HAS TO MAKE YOU WONDER IF IT’S THE ONLY ISSUE WITH THESE . AND THEN WE KNOW THE ALASKA AIRLINES CEO SAYS HE’S SENDING HIS OWN INSPECTORS TO AUDIT

BOEING’S QUALITY CONTROL SYSTEMS. UNITED AIRLINES IS QUESTIONING ITS COMMITMENT FOR FUTURE ORDERS HERE. I MEAN, WHAT DOES THE FUTURE LOOK LIKE FOR BOEING WITH ALL THESE QUESTIONS ABOUT THEIR QUALITY? ALASKA AND UNITED, THEY ARE BIG CUSTOMERS. BOEING AND THEIR BUSINESS IS RELIANT ON THESE AIRPLANES. SO WHEN THERE’S AN ISSUE LIKE

THIS AND THEY LOSE ALL OF THIS CAPACITY, THEY HAVE TO GROUND ALL THESE PLANES, CANCEL THEIR FLIGHTS, THEIR CUSTOMERS, BE KIND OF ANGRY. YOU HAVE TO WONDER IF YOU’RE IN A LEADERSHIP POSITION, DO YOU CONTINUE TO STICK BOEING OR DO YOU SAY, HEY, MAYBE IT’S TIME WE LOOK AT AIRBUS OR

ANOTHER AND START BRINGING IN PLANES FROM SOMEWHERE ELSE SO THAT WE CAN HAVE SOME SORT OF RELIABILITY IN OUR SYSTEM? AND THESE ARE CONTINUOUS PROBLEMS THAT SHOULD NOT BE HAPPENING. >> AND REAL QUICK, SAM, WHILE WE HAVE YOU, I KNOW THERE’S GOING TO BE A BRIEF WORK STOPPAGE AT THE 737 FACTORY FOR

BOEING BECAUSE THEY’RE HOLDING QUALITY CONTROL WORKSHOPS. I MEAN, WHAT WHAT JUST WHAT’S NEXT FROM HERE FOR THAT? THIS IS JUST ONE MORE STEP FOR BOEING TO SLOW DOWN AND GO TO THEIR WORKERS AND SAY, LOOK, BRING US YOUR CONCERNS. BRING US YOUR ISSUES, BUT HERE’S HOW WE NEED TO DO X,

Y, AND Z TO MAKE SURE THAT OUR PLANES ARE SAFE. YOU THINK ABOUT THIS, BOEING HAS A 737 ROLLING OFF THE ASSEMBLY ASSEMBLY LINE ALMOST EVERY 24 HOURS. THAT’S A RAPID PACE. AND THEY NEED TO SURE THAT EVERYTHING IS PERFECT. PLANES ARE A ZERO FAIL OPERATION. YOU CANNOT HAVE ANY PROBLEMS,

ESPECIALLY SO MANY PROBLEMS IN SO MANY PLANES ON BRAND NEW AIRCRAFT. >> ALL RIGHT, SAM SWEENEY, OUR TRANSPORTATION REPORTER SAM, SO THANK YOU SO MUCH. ALWAYS NICE TO TALK TO YOU. AND COMING UP HERE ON ABC NEWS LIVE, WE’RE FOLLOWING THAT DANGEROUS WINTER WEATHER ACROSS THE COUNTRY. THAT’S RIGHT.

FROM FOG TO FLOODING FROM ICE TO WARMTH. THERE IS A LOT GOING ON IN THE WORLD OF WEATHER AROUND THE COUNTRY. I’LL HAVE THAT COMING UP FOR YOU. >> I HAVE A PET PROJECT THEY’RE EXPECTING US. IT’S OUR SECRET WORLD WE HAVE. DO YOU THINK WE’RE GOING TO BE SAFE?

MEANWHILE, PARTS OF THE SOUTH ALSO SEE SOME SEVERE THUNDERSTORMS WITH DAMAGING

WINDS AND MAYBE EVEN A FEW TORNADO. >> SO METEOROLOGIST SOMARA THEODORE IS TRACKING IT ALL. ALL RIGHT. HEY, GOOD MORNING, TREVOR. THAT’S RIGHT. SO WE’RE LOOKING AT A MULTIDAY RAIN EVENT FOR MUCH OF THE SOUTH. THE GULF COAST STATES. AND SO AS A RESULT, FLOODING IS A SIGNIFICANT CONCERN.

>> WE’RE ALSO MONITORING THIS FOG SITUATION THAT HAS BEEN DEVELOPING SO MANY STATES REMAIN UNDER DENSE FOG ADVISORY. WE ARE SEEING IMPROVEMENTS, BUT WE MORE RECENTLY SAW A GROUND STOP IN CHICAGO AT THE AIRPORT THERE. OVERNIGHT, THERE WAS A GROUND STOP IN DALLAS. BUT WE’RE STARTING SEE IT THERE. SO WHILE THE VISIBILITY

IMPROVES THROUGH LUNCHTIME, WE DO ANTICIPATE IT TO DETERIORATE AGAIN OVERNIGHT. >> REMEMBER, LIKE I SAID EARLIER, WE’VE GOT A LOT OF SNOW COVER FARTHER NORTH, WARMER AIR MOVING OVER. THAT IS GOING TO HELP TO CREATE AND EXACERBATE THE FOG SITUATION. ALL RIGHT. NOW LET’S TALK ABOUT THE NEXT WEATHER HEADLINE.

THAT’S THE FLOODING THAT’S TAKING PLACE IN THE GULF. THIS STORM SYSTEM THAT IS MOVING FROM WEST TO EAST IS REALLY MEANDERING, TAKING ITS TIME, IN SOME MOISTURE FROM THE GULF OF MEXICO TAPPING INTO THAT MOISTURE FROM THE RAIN THAT WE SAW IN SAN DIEGO WITH THE VISUALS THERE OF THAT FLOODING.

AND AS A RESULT FROM HOUSTON TO BIRMINGHAM, WE HAVE THE THREAT FOR HEAVY RAIN, SOME FLOODING WITH THE WORST FLOODING OCCURRING IN JACKSON, MISSISSIPPI. ALEXANDRIA, NEW ORLEANS, LOUISIANA, THERE. THERE’S ALSO A TORNADO THREAT WITH THE SAME STORMS THAT ARE DUMPING HEAVY RAIN IN THIS REGION BY. THE TIME IT’S ALL SAID AND

DONE, 3 TO 6 INCHES OF RAIN IN LOUISIANA AND LOUISIANA HAS BEEN UNDER DROUGHT. THEY NEED THE RAIN, BUT IT’S COMING DOWN SO FAST THAT IT BECOMES DANGEROUS. >> ATLANTA, YOU’RE UP NEXT. TOMORROW, YOU’RE GOING TO BE SEEING HEAVY RAIN, 2 TO 3 INCHES, BUT SOME SPOTS COULD

SEE FIVE INCHES OF RAIN. ALL RIGHT. NOW LET’S HEAD TO THE NORTHEAST. I’M SEGMENTING THIS FOR US. SARANAC LAKE, NEW YORK, BEAUTIFUL WINTER WONDERLAND PHOTO WE HAVE HERE. BUT WHAT’S GOING TO HAPPEN IS WE’RE GETTING ON THE WARMER END OF THAT STORM NOW. >> SO ALL THAT SNOW WE SAW

CHANGING OVER TO RAIN AS THE STORM SYSTEM CONTINUES TO MOVE TO THE EAST. AS A RESULT, THAT’S GOING TO BE MELTING THERE. YOU COULD SEE SOME ICE ON THE NORTHERN PERIPHERY TONIGHT, ESPECIALLY IN PARTS NEW HAMPSHIRE AND VERMONT. AND THEN FINALLY, TEMPERATURES HAS BEEN SO COLD. BUT LOOK AT WHAT’S GETTING

READY TO HAPPEN NEXT BETWEEN THE 31ST AND THE SIX. >> WE COULD SEE NEAR RECORD TEMPERATURES FOR PARTS OF THE GREAT LAKES. SO WE ARE GOING TO SEE A BIG SWING IN THE NUMBERS. I’LL LEAVE YOU HERE, TREVOR, WITH SOME SPRING LIKE TEMPERATURES. TEMPERATURES ANTICIPATED TO WARM UP THROUGH

FIRST, THANKS FOR STREAMING WITH US. YOU’RE LOOKING AT MANCHESTER, NEW HAMPSHIRE ON THIS WEDNESDAY AND WE HAVE A LOT OF NEWS TO GET TO. HERE’S A RUNDOWN RIGHT NOW. DANGEROUS WINTER WEATHER IS TAKING AIM AT THE NORTHEAST. STATES FROM PENNSYLVANIA TO MAINE ARE NOW UNDER WINTER WEATHER ADVISORIES IN ALL PARTS

OF EAST TEXAS ARE UNDER FLASH FLOOD WARNINGS AFTER GETTING SIX INCHES OF RAIN IN ONE DAY. SIX OTHER STATES IN THE SOUTH ARE NOW UNDER FLOOD WATCHES AS HEAVY RAIN MELT SNOW FROM THEIR RECENT WINTER STORM. JOHNSON AND JOHNSON SAYS IT’S REACHED A TENTATIVE SETTLEMENT OVER CLAIMS IT MISLED CONSUMERS ABOUT THE

SAFETY ITS TALC BABY POWDER. THE COMPANY’S CFO SAYS IT WILL PAY $700 MILLION IN CLAIMS FROM 42 STATES. THE SETTLEMENT DOES NOT APPLY TO THE TENS OF THOUSANDS OF CONSUMER LAWSUITS ALLEGING THOSE PRODUCTS CAUSED CANCER. SOME THOSE CASES ARE SCHEDULED TO GO TO TRIAL THIS YEAR. JOHNSON JOHNSON HAS MAINTAINED

ITS TALC BASED POWDERS ARE SAFE AND DID NOT CAUSE CANCER, BUT NO LONGER SELLS THE PRODUCTS AND CONSERVATIONISTS ARE CELEBRATING A NEW FERTILITY BREAKTHROUGH THAT COULD SAVE THE NORTHERN WHITE RHINO FROM EXTINCTION. SCIENTISTS ANNOUNCED THEY’VE ACHIEVED THE WORLD’S IVF RHINO PREGNANCY, SAYING THEY TRANSFERRED A LAB, CREATED EMBRYO INTO A SURROGATE MOTHER.

THE ONLY TWO REMAINING WHITE RHINOS ARE FEMALE, A MOTHER AND DAUGHTER. THE ARE KEPT UNDER TIGHT SECURITY AT A CONSERVANCY IN KENYA. PLUS, CONGRATULATIONS ARE IN ORDER FOR THE BASEBALL HALL OF FAME’S CLASS OF 2024. FORMER MINNESOTA TWINS CATCHER MAAS, FORMER COLORADO ROCKIES FIRST BASEMAN TODD HELTON AND ADRIAN BELTRE, CONSIDERED

ONE OF THE GREATEST THIRD BASEMAN IN BASEBALL HISTORY, WERE ELECTED BY THE BASEBALL WRITERS ASSOCIATION OF AMERICA TUESDAY. THEY WILL ALL BE INDUCTED IN JULY. FORMER PRESIDENT TRUMP IS ONE STEP CLOSER TO THE 2024 REPUBLICAN NOMINATION WITH A DOUBLE DIGIT VICTORY IN NEW HAMPSHIRE. NIKKI HALEY CAME UP SHORT,

BUT SHE’S VOWING TO STAY IN THE RACE AHEAD OF NEXT MONTH’S PRIMARY IN HER HOME STATE OF SOUTH CAROLINA. THIS RACE IS FAR FROM OVER. THERE ARE DOZENS OF STATES LEFT TO GO AND THE NEXT ONE IS MY SWING STATE OF SOUTH. WITH DONALD TRUMP.

YOU HAVE ONE OUT OF CHAOS AFTER ANOTHER. THIS CASE, THAT CONTROVERSY, THIS TWEET, THAT SENIOR MOMENT ,YOU CAN’T FIX. JOE BIDEN’S CHAOS WITH REPUBLIC IN CHAOS. >> ABC’S ZOHREEN SHAH IN MANCHESTER, NEW HAMPSHIRE WITH MORE CZARINA HALEY’S VOWING TO KEEP CAMPAIGNING. SO WHAT MESSAGE IS SHE TRYING

TO SEND AFTER THIS LOSS? WITH THIS DETERMINATION TO STAY IN THIS RACE? DIANE THREE WORDS. SOUTH CAROLINA SAW ONE OF HER ADS AND THAT IS HOW SHE ENDED. SHE’S REMINDING PEOPLE THAT SHE IS FROM THERE, THAT SHE WON THERE TWICE. AND SHE’S CONTINUING TO DRAW A CONTRAST BETWEEN BIDEN AND

TRUMP SAYING SHE’S A NEW GENERATIONAL. BUT LOOK, SHE HAD A DOUBLE DIGIT LOSS HERE LAST NIGHT, A LOSS BY ABOUT 12 POINTS. HER CAMPAIGN’S MESSAGING FOR US, THOUGH, IS THAT THERE ARE SEVERAL OPEN PRIMARIES AND THAT MIGHT OPEN PRIMARIES COMING UP AND THAT COULD BE FERTILE GROUND FOR HER.

LET’S LOOK AT MORE SUPPORT HERE THAN ANYWHERE. THE STATES ONLY GET HARDER FOR HER GOING FORWARD. BUT I HEARD THIS PHRASE ON THE CAMPAIGN TRAIL ALL THE TIME THAT CAMPAIGNS ARE MADE UP OF BILLIONAIRES AND BROKE KIDS. AND AS LONG AS SHE HAS STUCK WITH HER, SHE’S GOT A YOU SPOKE

TO MANY VOTERS UP TO THIS AND YOU SAY YOU GOT THE SENSE THEY ALREADY KNEW THEY’LL LIKELY OUTCOME HERE. SO WHAT STOOD OUT TO YOU FROM THOSE CONVERSATIONS? YEAH, I REALLY FELT THAT. I MEAN, WE SPOKE TO A PANEL OF INDEPENDENT VOTERS THIS WEEKEND. EVERY SINGLE PERSON THAT SPOKE

TO SAID THAT WERE PREDICTED THAT TRUMP WOULD BE THE NOMINEE LAST NIGHT, WIN LAST NIGHT, AND WOULD GO ON TO BE THE NOMINEE EVERY. ONE TOLD ME THAT THEY WERE EXHAUSTED, INCLUDING ALL THE VOTERS I SPOKE TO YESTERDAY. AND MANY FEEL THEY’RE EXHAUSTED BECAUSE THEY’RE GOING TO SEE

A REPEAT OF 2016. MANY SHARE FEARS THAT THE CANDIDATE THAT THEY DON’T LIKE ,WHETHER IT’S BIDEN OR TRUMP, WILL ULTIMATELY WIN. MEANWHILE, PRESIDENT BIDEN WON THE DEMOCRATIC PRIMARY AND HE WASN’T EVEN ON THE BALLOT THERE . >> WALK US THROUGH HOW THIS WHOLE THING WENT DOWN DURING.

>> IT WAS REALLY SOMETHING. DIANE, YOU HAD A LOT OF PEOPLE WRITING IN HIS NAME. I MEAN, THIS IS THE FIRST TIME IN DECADES THAT A DEMOCRAT WAS ON THE BALLOT EVER SINCE LBJ DECADES AGO WHEN HE WAS AN INCUMBENT. USUALLY WHEN DEMS ARE ABOUT TO GET AT LEAST 80% OF THE

VOTES ARE STILL BEING COUNTED. BUT THE CAMPAIGN BIDEN’S CAMPAIGN DID DO A DROP WORK THIS MORNING. A MERE EXTRA, THEY WROTE ON A SHIRT. TOGETHER WE WILL DEFEAT TRUMP AGAIN. CLEARLY A SIGN FOR THE ADMINISTRATION THAT THEY ARE EXPECTING THAT REMATCH REGARDLESS WHAT NUMBERS THEY GET IN NEW HAMPSHIRE DIANE.

ALL RIGHT, ZOHREEN SHAH IN NEW HAMPSHIRE, THANK YOU. AND ABC POLITICAL DIRECTOR RICK HAS A BREAKDOWN OF THE RESULTS IN THE NEW HAMPSHIRE PRIMARIES AND WHAT IT ALL MEANS FOR NIKKI HALEY AS WE LOOK AHEAD TO THE NEXT RACE. HI, RICK. >> DIANE, UNLIKE IN IOWA, WE SAW RECORD TURNOUT IN NEW

HAMPSHIRE, NEVER SEEN THIS MANY REPUBLICANS VOTE. >> AND AS YOU CAN SEE, IT’S A BIT OF A SPLIT. DONALD TRUMP WON HANDILY, BUT NIKKI HALEY WON A WHOLE LOT OF SUBURBAN AND SOME OF THE HIGHER INCOME PARTS OF THE OF THE STATE BY THE SEACOAST. SO IT KIND OF MADE FOR AN

INTERESTING EVENING. AND WHAT’S EVEN MORE INTERESTING IS THE MAKEUP OF THE ELECTORATE. IT WAS A LOT DIFFERENT THAN IOWA AND. IT’S EVEN DIFFERENT THAN YOU TYPICALLY SEE IN NEW HAMPSHIRE. 46% OF REPUBLICAN PRIMARY VOTERS YESTERDAY WERE INDEPENDENT, UNDECLARED. THAT SETS A NEW RECORD OUT. WASN’T ENOUGH FOR NIKKI HALEY TO OVERCOME DONALD TRUMP’S

LEAD, BUT IT DOES POINT TO SOME POTENTIAL PROBLEM AREAS FOR FOR DONALD TRUMP MOVING FORWARD. THIS IS AN INTERESTING STATISTIC FOR ME. AT THE EXIT POLLS, 47% OF REPUBLICANS BELIEVE THAT JOE BIDEN LEGITIMATELY WON THE ELECTION. OF COURSE, THAT IS TRUE, THAT HE WON THE ELECTION. BUT DONALD TRUMP, IT ISN’T.

SO THIS IS SOME SKEPTICISM ON ON A KEY TRUMP CLAIM. ANOTHER ANOTHER EXIT POLL THAT I THOUGHT WAS INTERESTING. 54% OF REPUBLICANS BELIEVE THAT DONALD TRUMP IS STILL FIT TO BE PRESIDENT IF HE IS CONVICTED OF A CRIME. BUT 42% SAY HE ISN’T. >> AND THAT’S A BIG NUMBER.

THAT HAS TO BE TROUBLING IF YOU’RE DONALD TRUMP AND AN ISSUE THAT THE REPUBLICANS NATIONWIDE ARE SCRAMBLING TO TRY TO ACCOUNT FOR 67% OF NEW HAMPSHIRE PRIMARY VOTERS, REPUBLICAN PRIMARY VOTERS SAY THEY DON’T WANT TO SEE A NATIONWIDE BAN ON ABORTION AGAIN, MUCH TWIST AS THIS RACE GOES FORWARD.

UP OF ANY SIGNIFICANCE IS, NEVADA. BUT IT TURNS OUT SHE’S NOT EVEN ON THE BALLOT IN THE CAUCUSES THERE. SHE HAS NO SHOT AT ANY OF THOSE DELEGATES RIGHT AFTER THAT. HOT ON ITS HEELS, SOUTH CAROLINA, THAT IS NIKKI HALEY’S HOME STATE, WHICH IS TRAILING BIG IN THE POLLS.

SO THE CHALLENGE FOR HER, SHE TRULY HAS TO WIN IN SOUTH CAROLINA AND THEN MOVE FORWARD. >> IF SHE CAN GET TO SUPER TUESDAY, YOU START TO SEE STATES LIKE NORTH CAROLINA AND VIRGINIA, MASSACHUSETTS, TEXAS A LOT OF THOSE STATES HAVE HAVE OPEN PRIMARIES. THEY ALLOW INDEPENDENTS, DEMOCRATS TO VOTE.

THAT IS GOING TO BE THE KEY TO NIKKI HALEY IF SHE ANY PATH LEFT IN THIS NOMINATION DIANE. >> ALL RIGHT. POLITICAL RICK KLEIN, THANK YOU. AND FORMER PRESIDENT TRUMP AND NIKKI HALEY ARE NOW LOOKING AHEAD TO THE SOUTH CAROLINA PRIMARIES ONE MONTH FROM TODAY . ABC NEWS WHITE HOUSE CORRESPONDENT MARYALICE

PARKS IS IN CHARLESTON, SOUTH CAROLINA WITH MORE ON THAT BECAUSE THIS IS NIKKI HALEY’S HOME. SHE SERVED AS GOVERNOR THERE. SO HOW DO HER CHANCES LOOK NOW ? RIGHT NOW DOWN IN THE POLLING, IT IS TOUGH FOR HER, BUT YOU’RE RIGHT. SHE WAS HERE AS A TWO TERM

GOVERNOR AND A POPULAR ONE. SHE WAS REELECTED BY LARGE MARGINS. AND SHE HAS TALKED ABOUT HOW SHE GETS TO COME HOME TO HER HOME STATE. SHE’S FLYING BACK HERE HOLDING A BIG RALLY. HER TEAM ALREADY UP WITH ADS, NEW ADS. LOOK, THE STATE OFFICIALS I’VE TALKED TO SAY THIS IS GOING

TO BE AN UPHILL CLIMB. BUT TRUMP IS THE ONE WITH FIERCE, FIERCE LOYALTY. THEY’VE TOLD ME IT’S NOT REALLY NECESSARILY THAT PEOPLE DON’T LIKE HER AND THAT SHE HAS REALLY LIKED, BUT THAT THEY SENSE PEOPLE LOVE DONALD TRUMP HERE. WE’LL HAVE TO SEE IF SHE CHANGES SOME OF HER CAMPAIGN TACTICS.

HOW PEOPLE HERE RESPOND TO ANY NEW TRUMP ATTACKS AGAINST THEIR FORMER GOVERNOR, AND WHETHER THAT CAN SHAKE UP THE RACE. BECAUSE I THINK THIS IS ABSOLUTELY A MAKE OR BREAK STATE FOR HER THAT IT WOULD JUST BE TOO EMBARRASSING, TOO TOUGH TO LOSE YOUR HOME STATE. THIS IS ALSO THE FIRST OFFICIAL

PRIMARY FOR DEMOCRATS AFTER THE DNC RESHUFFLED ITS CALENDAR. SO WHAT ARE YOU WATCHING FOR THERE? SO INTERESTING THAT DEMOCRATS ARE SO MUCH TIME AND ATTENTION INTO THIS STATE. YOU’RE RIGHT. IT WAS THEIR DECISION TO CHANGE THE CALENDAR AROUND TO ELEVATE SOUTH CAROLINA, TO GO FIRST. AND WE’VE SEEN PRESIDENT BIDEN

SPENDING A LOT OF TIME HERE. HE WAS HERE A FEW WEEKS AGO. HE IS COMING BACK LATER THIS WEEK, BRINGING BIDEN, THE FIRST LADY, WITH HIM AS WELL. THEY HAVE STAFF HERE. THEY’RE POURING RESOURCES INTO THE STATE. INTERESTING FOR SOMEONE THAT DOESN’T HAVE A SERIOUS PRIMARY, I MEAN, HE’S A SITTING INCUMBENT PRESIDENT.

THEIR TEAM SAYS THIS IS ABOUT HONORING THE BLA VOTE, MAKING SURE THEY SHOW THE REST OF THE COUNTRY THAT BLACK VOTERS HERE IN SOUTH CAROLINA, A KEY PART OF DEMOCRATS BASE, ARE WITH HIM, ARE COMING OUT FOR HIM THAT THAT MIGHT SEND A MESSAGE TO OTHER BLACK VOTERS AROUND THE COUNTRY.

BUT I GOT TO TELL YOU, THERE’S A LOT OF DEMOCRATS ARE ACTUALLY PRETTY SKEPTICAL ABOUT THIS STRATEGY. THEY SAY THE BIDEN CAMPAIGN SHOULD BE SPENDING MORE TIME ON MORE BATTLEGROUND STATES THAT MIGHT BE MUCH CLOSER IN A GENERAL ELECTION. DAN? ALL RIGHT. WHITE HOUSE CORRESPONDENT MARYALICE PARKS IN CHARLESTON, SOUTH CAROLINA, THANK YOU.

WE ARE GETTING CLOSER TO. THE GRAVEL ROAD THAT IS SUPPOSED TO LEAD US TO AREA 51. >> ARE WE ALONE? IT’S ABOUT TIME NOW TO FIND OUT THE ANSWER. ALIENS ARE ALONE NOW STREAMING ON HULU. WELCOME BACK TO ABC NEWS LIVE. FIRST, ANOTHER INCIDENT ON A BOEING JET IS RAISING

NEW QUESTIONS ABOUT SAFETY FOR THE AVIATION GIANT. DELTA AIRLINES SAYS A TIRE ON ONE OF ITS BOEING PLANES FELL OFF JUST AS THE FLIGHT WAS ABOUT TO TAKE OFF THIS WEEKEND IN ATLANTA. THE LATEST IS EXPECTED TO COME UP TODAY AS BOEING’S CEO HEADS TO CAPITOL HILL FOR QUESTIONS

FROM SENATORS ABOUT FLIGHT SAFETY. ABC NEWS TRANSPORTATION. >> GIO BENITEZ HAS THE DETAILS. IT WAS A SCARY INCIDENT IN ATLANTA. >> DELTA 982. THIS IS THE AIRCRAFT LOOKING AT YOU. YOU WANT TO HEAR THOSE TIRES JUST CAME OFF A DELTA BOEING 757 GETTING READY FOR TAKEOFF, LOSING ONE OF ITS NOSE TIRE.

>> YOU HAVE LOCATED A FIRE SERVICE IN A SAFE AREA ON THE SOUTH SOUTHWEST. >> WELL, EXPERTS SAY THIS WAS LIKELY A MAINTENANCE ISSUE ON THE 31 YEAR OLD JET. BOEING HAS FACED A SLEW OF QUESTIONS OVER OTHER RECENT INCIDENTS. >> OH, MY GOD. THEY GOT FIRED JUST DAYS AGO.

SPARKS SHOOTING FROM ENGINE OF A BOEING 747 CARGO PLANE OVER MIAMI. AND THEN, OF COURSE, THAT PLANE THAT FLEW OFF OF BOEING 737 MAX NINE. >> 16 THOUSAND FEET THE AIR. >> ALASKA AIRLINES CEO BEN MCCUTCHEN SAYS INSPECTORS FOUND MANY LOOSE BOLTS AND THAT HE’S FRUSTRATED AND ANGRY.

>> BOEING IS BETTER THAN THIS AND THEY TOLD YOU TO SHOULD NEVER HAVE HAPPENED. >> 171, MAX NINE REMAIN GROUNDED AS BOEING ANNOUNCES IT WILL PAUSE MANUFACTURING AT ITS 737 PLANES THURSDAY TO HOLD WORKING SESSIONS ON QUALITY CONTROL. >> ALTHOUGH BOEING CEO HAS SAID THE COMPANY IS GOING TO GET BETTER.

>> AIRLINES ARE GROWING FRUSTRATED WITH DELAYS. UNITED SAYING ORDERS FOR THE MAX, TEN ARE NOT CANCELED, BUT THE PLANE IS REMOVED. INTERNAL GROWTH PLANS. ITS CFO SAYING THE MAX NINE GROUNDING IS KIND OF THE STRAW THAT BROKE THE CAMEL’S BACK. >> WHAT YOU’RE SEEING NOW IS TREMENDOUS COOPERATION BETWEEN BOEING, THE AIRLINES

AND THE NTSB, THE FAA. THEY’LL GET THE ANSWERS AND EVERYTHING’S MERGED BACK IN THE AIR SAFELY, BUT IT WILL TAKE A OF WEEKS. >> GIO BENITEZ, THANK YOU. AND IT’S TIME NOW FOR. BUT TELL IT LIKE IT IS. WE’RE DR. ALOK PATEL SHARES HEALTH ADVICE ON THE TOPICS THAT MATTER MOST TO YOU.

AND TODAY WE’RE TALKING ABOUT THE RISKS OF. RECREATIONAL MARIJUANA USE FOR ANYONE UNDER 21 IS NOT LEGAL ANYWHERE IN THE UNITED STATES, BUT TEENS ARE STILL IT. AND NEW STUDIES SHOW HOW DANGEROUS THE SIDE EFFECTS BE FOR THEM. HERE’S DR. PATEL WITH WHAT YOU NEED TO KNOW. >> MORE PEOPLE, INCLUDING

TEENS, ARE USING MARIJUANA AND THEN DEVELOPING EXTREME SYMPTOMS LIKE HALLUCINATIONS CONFUSION AND LOSING TOUCH WITH REALITY. DID THAT GET YOUR ATTENTION? BECAUSE IT GOT MINE? DATA FROM A HEALTHCARE ANALYTICS FIRM SHOWS A LINK BETWEEN USE AND PSYCHOSIS IN TEENS. IT ALSO SHOWS THAT EMERGENCY VISITS FOR CANNABIS

USE DISORDER WENT UP 50% FROM 2019 TO 2020 AND 2023 NUMBERS ARE STILL HIGHER THAN THEY WERE FOUR YEARS AGO. THERE ARE SEVERAL TYPES OF CANNABIS RELATED INDUCED DISORDERS, INCLUDING INTOXICATION, WITHDRAWAL ANXIETY, DELIRIUM, SLEEP DISORDERS AND PSYCHOSIS AND PSYCHOSIS. THAT IS NOT A SAFE STATE TO BE IN, ESPECIALLY FOR TEENS

WHO HAVE AN UNDERLYING MENTAL HEALTH CONDITION. I MEAN, THIS COULD INCREASE SOMEONE’S RISK OF GETTING INJURED OR ATTEMPTING SUICIDE. NOW THAT MARIJUANA LEGALIZED FOR MEDICAL AND OR RECREATIONAL USE IN ABOUT 40 STATES AND OVER 50 MILLION PEOPLE ABOVE THE AGE OF 12 TRIED IN 2021, WE HAVE TO HAVE A CONVERSATION ABOUT OF

THE ADVERSE SIDE EFFECTS. AND PLUS, THE PLANT ITSELF HAS ACTUALLY CHANGED OVER THE PAST 30 YEARS. THE MOST PSYCHOACTIVE COMPONENT DELTA NINE TETRAHYDROCANNABINOL OR THC, IS ACTUALLY MORE CONCENTRATED NOW THAN IT USED TO BE IN THE NINETIES. THE CONCENTRATION OF THC IN CANNABIS WAS AROUND 4%. IN 2017, THAT NUMBER JUMPED UP

TO 17%. AND MOVING BEYOND PLANTS TODAY. LET’S TO OILS AND EDIBLES CAN BE AS HIGH AS 90% THC. SOME PEOPLE MAY NOT EVEN KNOW THIS WHEN THEY TRY THESE PRODUCTS. BOTTOM LINE, AS WEED CULTURE BECOMES MORE MAINSTREAM, PARENTS DO TWO THINGS. HAD CONVERSATIONS WITH TEENS ABOUT THE DANGERS OF AND SAFELY

STORE ANY CANNABIS THAT ARE IN THE HOUSE AWAY FROM LITTLE HANDS WHO MIGHT THINK IT’S CANDY. AND DR. ALOK PATEL JOINS ME NOW FOR ON THIS DR. PATEL. NO WEED FOR TEENS. LOVE THE SIGN. THAT’S MY PSA. A PRETTY CLEAR MESSAGE THERE. BUT TALK TO ME ABOUT THIS

CANNABIS USE DISORDER. IS THERE AN ACTUAL DEFINITION FOR THAT? AND WHAT ARE THE WARNING SIGNS THEN? >> SIMPLY PUT, CANNABIS USE DISORDER IS ESSENTIALLY WHEN SOMEONE HAS TROUBLE CUTTING DOWN THEIR CANNABIS USE, EVEN THE TOXIC EFFECTS OR THEIR HABIT IS INTERFERING WITH THEIR SOCIAL OR HOME, THEIR WORK LIFE OR THEIR HEALTH.

AND THE CDC ESTIMATES THAT THIS AFFECTS ABOUT THREE IN TEN MARIJUANA USERS. >> NOW, THERE IS THIS PERCEPTION THAT MARIJUANA, BECAUSE IT’S ALL NATURAL, IT MAY HAVE LESS TOXIC EFFECTS. WE’RE NOT LIKE COMPARISON GAME HERE WITH OTHER DRUGS BUT MARIJUANA ACTUALLY BE ADDICTIVE AND CAN AFFECT SOMEONE’S BRAIN MENTAL HEALTH,

THEIR ATHLETIC, THEIR ABILITY TO DRIVE AND SO FORTH. SO IF ANYONE OUT THERE FEELS LIKE THEY’RE ADDICTED, THEY HAVE A SUBSTANCE USE DISORDER BECAUSE OF CANNABIS, THEY WANT TO CUT DOWN AND SUPPORT AND TALK TO A HEALTH CARE PROFESSIONAL. THERE ARE NO FDA APPROVED MEDICATIONS TO HELP WITH THIS,

BUT METHODS SUCH AS TALK THERAPY AND COUNSELING ABSOLUTELY HELP. >> IS THERE A SENSE OF HOW THC THC IS TOO MUCH? >> IT ABSOLUTELY DEPENDS ON SOMEBODY IS TALLER IN AGE, THEIR WEIGHT, AND THESE INDIVIDUAL FACTORS, WHEN IT COMES DOWN TO DETERMINING HOW MANY MILLIGRAMS OF THC CAN CAUSE A TOXIC EFFECT.

BUT STUDIES DO SUGGEST THAT AS LITTLE AS 2 TO 3 MILLIGRAMS OF INHALED THC OR 5 TO 20 MILLIGRAMS OF INGESTED THC CAN SHOW THOSE TOXIC ADVERSE EFFECTS. AND THERE IS ONE STUDY IN CHILDREN SHOWING THAT A DOSE OF TWO MILLIGRAMS PER KILOGRAM OF INGESTED IS PREDICTIVE OF TOXICITY AND SOME SEVERE SYMPTOMS.

IS IN SO MANY PRODUCTS. AND IN THIS STUDY, SOME KIDS EAT 10 TO 20 TIMES THAT AMOUNT . BUT ANY PRACTICAL TIPS ON HOW PARENTS CAN DISCUSS THIS TOPIC WITH THEIR TEENS AND WHAT TO LOOK OUT FOR? >> ONE OF THE MOST IMPORTANT THINGS YOU JUST MENTIONED IS DISCUSSING THIS WITH YOUR

TEENS, REMINDING TEENS OF THE HARMFUL EFFECTS OF INGESTING MARIJUANA, HOW IT CAN AFFECT THEIR DEVELOPMENT, THEIR ATHLETIC PERFORMANCE, THEIR HEALTH, REMINDING TEEN THAT IT IS NOT LEGAL ANYWHERE IN THE COUNTRY FOR TEENS TO INGEST OR USE MARIJUANA UNDER THE AGE OF 21. AND ALSO, WHEN IT COMES TO YOUNGER KIDS, IT’S SAFE.

>> STORAGE IS KEY AND KEEPING ANY TYPE OF CANNABIS PRODUCTS FROM KIDS AND CHILD RESISTANT PACKAGING AND NOT ALLOWING ANY OTHER FOOD SNACKS. IT’S EXTREMELY IMPORTANT THAT PARENTS AWARE OF THIS, BECAUSE I WILL TELL YOU AS A PEDIATRICIAN, I HAVE SEEN KIDS IN EMERGENCY DEPARTMENT BECAUSE OF INTOXICATION FROM EDIBLES.

>> WHETHER OR NOT THAT WAS INTENTIONAL OR, NOT OR WITH SEVERE SYMPTOMS SUCH AS LOSS OF BALANCE, SLURRED SPEECH, NAUSEA, VOMITING, CARDIAC SYMPTOMS, AND SO WHEN IN DOUBT, YOU WOULDN’T HAVE THOSE CONVERSATIONS, BUT YOU WANT TO SEEK EMERGENCY CARE OR CALL POISON CONTROL IF YOU HAVE ANY ANY THOUGHT THAT YOUR CHILDREN

HAVE ACCIDENTALLY GOTTEN INTO SOME CANNABIS. >> ALL RIGHT, DR. PATEL, ADVICE THERE. THANK YOU. AND DR. PATEL IS HERE TO TAKE YOUR QUESTIONS OR. JUST LEAVE A MESSAGE ON OUR INSTAGRAM FEED AT ABC NEWS LIVE AND YOU MIGHT ANSWER YOUR QUESTION RIGHT HERE ON FRIDAY. AND NATIONWIDE SHORTAGES ARE BEING REPORTED FOR

MEDICATIONS USED FOR WEIGHT LOSS. LIKE WE GO, WE SHAMPOO AND MOUNJARO. TWO AND FIVE AMERICANS ARE CLASSIFIED AS OBESE. AND FOR MANY, THESE DRUGS HAVE BEEN REVOLUTIONARY. BUT HOW DO YOU KNOW IF THEY’LL WORK FOR YOU. ABC’S BECKY WORLEY IS LOOKING AT DIFFERENT OPTIONS FOR THOSE STRUGGLING TO REACH A HEALTHY

WEIGHT. >> STEPHANIE DINMORE OF WASHINGTON STATE SAYS WHEN SHE HIT £260, SHE KNEW SOMETHING HAD TO CHANGE. >> I STARTED HAVING PROBLEMS WITH HIGH BLOOD PRESSURE, PRE-DIABETES. >> AFTER YEARS OF TRYING DIET AND EXERCISE, SHE SAYS, NOTHING SEEMED TO HELP. >> I WAS FRUSTRATED, SUPER FRUSTRATED AND VERY MISERABLE.

>> EVERYTHING. SHE TALKED TO HER DOCTOR ABOUT GETTING ON MUNJAL DIABETES MEDICATION BEING USED OFF LABEL BY SOME FOR WEIGHT LOSS. >> I’VE LOST 93 POUNDS SINCE MARCH AND I FEEL ABSOLUTELY AMAZING. THIS HONESTLY HAS BEEN A GODSEND. >> SINCE STEPHANIE STARTED MUNJAL, ANOTHER DRUG, ZMAPP, WHICH HAS THE SAME ACTIVE

INGREDIENT CALLED TERMS. >> PEPTIDE HAS BEEN APPROVED FOR WEIGHT LOSS, JOINING MANGO AS AN APPROVED WEIGHT LOSS INJECTABLE. >> WHAT SEEING RIGHT NOW IS A HUGE REBELLION IN THE TREATMENT OF METABOLIC DISEASE. >> DR. LEWIS ARONEY IS AN OBESITY SPECIALIST AND HELPS PATIENTS DETERMINE WHICH WEIGHT LOSS INTERVENTION IS RIGHT FOR THEM.

>> I THINK PEOPLE WHO HAVE BEEN TRYING FOR YEARS TO LOSE WEIGHT AND HAVEN’T BEEN ABLE TO SUCCEED ARE EXCELLENT CANDIDATES FOR TREATMENT LIKE THIS. AND WHAT THEY WILL REALIZE, IT’S NOT THEIR FAULT THERE’S SOMETHING PHYSICAL THAT’S GOING ON IN THE BACKGROUND. >> HE SAYS CANDIDATES SHOULD

HAVE A BMI OF 30 OR IF THEY HAVE A PREEXISTING CONDITION, HIGH BLOOD PRESSURE OR CHOLESTEROL, THEIR BMI CAN BE AS LOW AS 27. BUT HE ADDS, THESE DRUGS ARE NOT FOR EVERYONE. WHAT ABOUT PEOPLE WHO HAVE AN EXTRA TEN, £12 THAT THEY JUST WANT TO GET OFF QUICKLY?

>> THESE MEDICINES ARE NOT FOR THOSE PEOPLE. AND HE SAYS THERE ARE SOME PEOPLE WITH HIGHER BMI WHO ARE BETTER CANDIDATES FOR BARIATRIC SURGERY. >> WE SEE PATIENTS WHO DON’T RESPOND TO THESE MEDICINES. THEIR BRAINS, WE BELIEVE, ARE RESISTANT TO EVEN THESE BRAND NEW GOP ONES. WE’RE NOT SURE WHY THAT IS.

>> BUT FOR STEPHANIE, HER HEALTHIER THANKS TO MEDICATIONS HAS BEEN THE RIGHT FIT AND A WELCOME. NOW SOME NEWS BREAKING ON THIS TOPIC. NEW ANALYSIS FROM EPIC RESEARCH THAT LOOKED AT THE HEALTH RECORDS OF MORE THAN 20,000 PEOPLE TAKING SOME TIME HAS SHOWN MANY PEOPLE AVOID REGAINING WEIGHT AFTER STOPPING THE DRUGS.

IN THE EPIC STUDY, OVER HALF OF PATIENTS MAINTAINED THEIR WEIGHT LOSS EVEN A YEAR AFTER DISCONTINUE THE MEDICATION. ONLY ABOUT 18% OF PEOPLE REGAINED THE WEIGHT THEY HAD LOST. NOW, THIS IS ENCOURAGING FOR PEOPLE TAKING SEMAGLUTIDE, ESPECIALLY IN LIGHT OF PRIOR WARNINGS ABOUT WEIGHT REGAIN IN, PEOPLE STOP TAKING THE DRUG.

REACTIONS ARE POURING IN AFTER YESTERDAY’S OSCAR NOMINATIONS, ESPECIALLY TO TWO NOTABLE ABSENCES. DESPITE BARBIE’S INCREDIBLE YEAR, GRETA GERWIG WAS NOT NOMINATED IN THE

DIRECTOR CATEGORY AND MARGOT ROBBIE GOT NO NOMINATION FOR LEAD ACTRESS. NOW NOMINATED COSTARS. RYAN GOSLING AND AMERICA FERRERA ARE RESPONDING. >> LARA SPENCER HAS MORE TO SAY . >> CONFUSION HOLLYWOOD OVER A MAJOR OSCARS SNUB. >> ALL RIGHT BY ME. >> HI, BARBIE. BARBIE SCORING EIGHT NOMINATIONS.

AND IT TURNS, IN FACT, THAT NOT ONLY ARE YOU DOING EVERYTHING WRONG, BUT ALSO EVERYTHING YOUR FAULT, INCLUDING BEST SUPPORTING ACTRESS FOR AMERICA FERRERA. I’M JUST KIDDING. AND SUPPORTING ACTOR RYAN GOSLING. THE MOVIE ALSO GETTING A BEST PICTURE NOD, BUT LEFT OUT THE BILLION DOLLAR BLOCKBUSTER STAR MARGOT ROBBIE FOR BEST

ACTRESS AND GRETA GERWIG FOR DIRECTING. >> I THINK THAT’S THE NAME THAT EVERYONE HAS ON THEIR LIVES IS NOT BARBIE. AND GRETA GERWIG. GRETA DID GET NOMINATED FOR ADAPTED SCREENPLAY, BUT SHE WAS SNUBBED AND BEST DIRECTOR, WHICH MANY ALL, INCLUDING MYSELF, THOUGHT THAT SHE WAS

GOING TO BE A SHOO IN FOR FANS ARE UPSET. HOW DOES CAN GET AN OSCAR NOMINATION FOR BARBIE BUT BARBIE DOESN’T GET AN OSCAR NOMINATION FOR BARBIE. >> IF YOU SCRIPTED THIS, NO ONE WOULD EVER BELIEVE YOU AND . GOSLING RELEASING A STATEMENT SAYING, QUOTE, THERE IS NO

CANNES WITHOUT BARBIE AND THERE IS NO “BARBIE” MOVIE WITHOUT GRETA GERWIG AND MARGOT ROBBIE . TO SAY THAT I’M DISAPPOINTED THAT THEY ARE NOT NOMINATED IN THEIR RESPECTIVE CATEGORIES WOULD BE AN UNDERSTATEMENT. IT IS LITERALLY IMPOSSIBLE TO BE A WOMAN. THE NOMINATIONS FOR EACH CATEGORY, THOUGH, DETERMINED

BY THOSE WHO ARE MEMBERS OF IT . MANY ACTORS VOTE FOR ACTORS AND DIRECTORS DETERMINE GETS THE DIRECTING NODS. >> THE DIRECTORS BRANCH IS A LOT SMALLER THAN THE ACTORS BRANCH. IT DOES MEAN MUCH MORE MALE AND AN OLDER GROUP OF VOTERS. >> BUT EXPERTS SAY THE SNUB COULD END UP PLAYING

DONALD TRUMP MAY HAVE BEAT NIKKI HALEY, BUT VOWS TO STAY IN THE FIGHT. THE FORMER PRESIDENT DOUBLING DOWN ON HIS ATTACKS WHILE THE FORMER SOUTH CAROLINA GOVERNOR SAYS HER STATE WILL PROTECT HER STATE OF THE RACE STRAIGHT AHEAD. AND EXTREME WEATHER ACROSS THE COUNTRY, STATES NOW UNDER FLOOD WATCHES. YOUR LIFE FORECAST HOUR.

AND GOOD AFTERNOON, EVERYONE. I’M KYRA PHILLIPS. WE DO BEGIN WITH THE CEO OF BOEING UNDER FIRE NOW FACING LAWMAKERS ON CAPITOL HILL. THE MEETING COMES AMID GROWING SCRUTINY AFTER SERIES OF INCIDENTS INVOLVING BOEING JETS, INCLUDING THAT MIDAIR DOOR BLOWOUT ON AN ALASKA AIRLINES 737 MAX NINE EARLIER THIS MONTH.

THE FAA IS ALSO INVESTIGATING BOEING PLANE INCIDENT IN ATLANTA THIS PAST WEEKEND WHERE A TIRE ACTUALLY FELL OFF A DELTA FLIGHT JUST BEFORE TAKEOFF LIFTS OFF THIS HOUR. >> OUR TRANSPORTATION REPORTER, SAM SWEENEY ALSO, OUR JAY O’BRIEN, WHO’S FOLLOWING EVERYTHING THAT’S HAPPENING THERE ON THE HILL AS.

WELL, SO, SAM, LET’S START WITH YOU. LET’S TALK ABOUT BOEING CEO DAVE CALHOUN. WHAT IS HE HAD TO SAY? >> WHAT IS HE SAID SO FAR? WELL, KIRAN, DAVE CALHOUN SHOWED UP THIS MORNING. >> HE ACTUALLY REQUESTED THIS MEETING WITH. LAWMAKERS, YOU CAN IMAGINE HE IS UNDER EXTREME PRESSURE,

NOT ONLY FROM THE PRIVATE, BUT ALSO FEDERAL OFFICIALS AND LAWMAKERS HERE ON CAPITOL HILL. AND HE IS HERE THIS MORNING ON DAMAGE CONTROL. HE SPOKE BRIEFLY BEFORE HE WENT INTO A MEETING WITH SENATORS. >> LET’S LISTEN. >> WE FIND A SAFE PLACE. WE DON’T JUST GET AIRPLANES

IN THE AIR THAT WE DON’T HAVE 100% CONFIDENCE IN. I’M HERE TODAY IN THE SPIRIT OF TRANSPARENCY. NUMBER ONE, RECOGNIZE THE SERIOUSNESS OF WHAT JUST ASKED. NUMBER TWO, TO SHARE EVERYTHING I CAN WITH OUR CAPITOL HILL INTERESTS AND ALL THEIR QUESTIONS, BECAUSE THEY HAVE A LOT OF THEM AND DEFINITELY A LOT

OF QUESTIONS FROM A LOT OF PEOPLE. WE ARE NOW HEARING FROM AIRLINES ABOUT MORE LOOSE PARTS ON MORE. AND KYRA, WE STILL DON’T HAVE ANY ANSWERS FROM BOEING OR THE OF WHEN THOSE MAX NINE JETS COULD RETURN TO THE SKIES. >> HEY, A LOT OF PEOPLE WONDERING WHEN THAT WILL HAPPEN.

AND JAY, LET’S JUST TALK ABOUT WHO CALHOUN IS ACTUALLY MEETING WITH TODAY AND WHAT ARE THOSE LAWMAKERS HOPING TO GET OUT OF HIM? LET ME GO THROUGH HIS AGENDA. >> HE’S MEETING WITH TED CRUZ, WHO’S THE RANKING MEMBER ON THE SENATE COMMERCE COMMITTEE, WHICH IS A COMMITTEE

THAT IS IS HE AND I HAVE BEEN IN THOSE HEARINGS THAT HAS BEEN TAKING A VERY QUIZZICAL LOOK AT THE AIRLINE INDUSTRY WRIT LARGE. IT’S IN CHARGE REGULATING THAT INDUSTRY. >> HE’S ALSO MEETING WITH MARK WARNER. WHEN I WOKE UP THIS MORNING AND SAW THESE MEETINGS. I WASN’T CLEAR WHY HE WAS

MEETING WITH MARK WARNER, WHO HAS NOTHING TO DO WITH AIRLINES. >> HE’S THE CHAIR OF THE INTELLIGENCE COMMITTEE, BUT A COLLEAGUE OF MINE, ALI POPCORN, WHO COVERS THE SENATE, REMINDS ME IT’S BECAUSE MARK WARNER IS THE SENATOR OF VIRGINIA. AND BOEING HAS SUCH A BIG FOOTPRINT IN THE STATE

OF VIRGINIA THE LAST NAME HE’S MEETING WITH IS POTENTIALLY ONE OF THE MOST IMPORTANT. WHO IS MARIA CANTWELL, WHO IS THE CHAIR OF THE SENATE COMMERCE COMMITTEE. SHE HAS ALREADY INDICATED SHE’S INTERESTED IN LOOKING AT WHAT WENT WRONG HERE WITH. >> BOEING POTENTIALLY HOLDING A POTENTIAL HEARING. SHE’S ALSO ALREADY SENT

A LETTER TO THE FAA ASKING THEM ABOUT THEIR INSPECT OPTIONS OF THE BOEING PRODUCTION PLANT AND WHAT THEY CAN PROVIDE AS ANY EVIDENCE ON THAT FRONT. THEIR DEADLINE, BY THE WAY, TO GIVE THAT INFORMATION IS TOMORROW KYRA. ALL RIGHT. AND JUST ONE MORE, SAM, IF YOU DON’T MIND.

WE HAVE BEEN TALKING ABOUT HOW HOW ALL THESE NINE PLANES HAVE NOW BEEN GROUNDED. DO WE KNOW ANYTHING MORE ON THE INVESTIGATIONS AND ALSO THE INSPECTIONS THAT ARE SUPPOSED TO BE PLACE? >> WELL, THE AIRLINES ARE DOING THEIR OWN INSPECTIONS, BUT THEY ARE STILL WAITING FOR INSTRUCTIONS FROM BOEING THAT,

HAVE BEEN SIGNED OFF BY THE FAA ON EXACTLY HOW TO FIX THESE MAX NINE JETS AND GET THEM BACK INTO THE AIR. AND WE ARE TOLD BY SOURCES THAT THAT COULD BE AT LEAST ANOTHER WEEK AWAY. BUT WHAT WE ARE NOW IS THAT THESE AIRLINES ARE FINDING MORE IN THESE PARTS.

AS I MENTIONED EARLIER ON THESE PLANES. CERTAINLY CONCERNS FOR BRAND NEW AIRCRAFT AND THE FEDERAL GOVERNMENT IS SENDING INSPECTORS TO BOEING TO GO OVER THEIR THEIR PARTS AND THEIR PROCESSES TO SEE HOW THEY PUT THESE PLANES TOGETHER AND FIGURE OUT WHAT WENT WRONG HERE. ALL RIGHT. SANJAY, THANK YOU BOTH SO MUCH.

WE’LL FOLLOW IT ALL THROUGHOUT THE DAY. >> OF COURSE. SO IT MAY HAVE BEEN A DOUBLE DIGIT VICTORY FOR DONALD, BUT NIKKI HALEY SAYS SHE VOWS TO STAY IN THE FIGHT. THE NEW HAMPSHIRE PRIMARY NOW MARKING THE FORMER PRESIDENT’S SECOND MAJOR WIN IN HIS BID TO BE REELECTED. AND DESPITE DEFEATING

THE FORMER U.N. AMBASSADOR BY MORE THAN 11 POINTS, THE FORMER SOUTH CAROLINA GOVERNOR SAYS SHE’S NOT GIVING UP. >> HALEY NOW TAKING THE RACE TO HER HOME STATE WHERE SHE SERVED AS GOVERNOR WITH THE SOUTH CAROLINA PRIMARY. EXACTLY ONE MONTH AWAY NOW. OUR ZOHREEN SHAH IS ON THE TRAIL.

NEW JOINS US NOW WITH MORE. SO NIKKI HALEY WAS REALLY HOPING TO BE THE UNDERDOG IN NEW HAMPSHIRE ZAREEN. WHAT HAPPENED? YEAH, HOPE IS VERY DIFFERENT FROM REALITY. I MEAN, WE SPOKE THAT WHOLE WEEK BEFORE, RIGHT. I DON’T THINK THIS IS A SURPRISE THAT WEEK SHE WAS TRAILING BY DOUBLE DIGITS.

SHE WAS EXPECTED TO LOSE HERE. BUT WHAT SHE DID DO WAS SHOWS THE WEAKNESS WITH TRUMP. SHE LOST INDEPENDENT VOTERS BY 24 POINTS. AND ANY POLITICAL EXPERT WILL TELL YOU THAT IS VERY WEAK GOING INTO A GENERAL ELECTION. NOW, WITH HIS LEGAL WOES THAT APPEAR TO BE SORT

OF BOLSTERING HIS CAMPAIGN, THAT IS SOMETHING THAT, YOU KNOW, HIS CAMPAIGN IS KEEPING THEIR EYES ON, PROBABLY SOME THAT’S FRUSTRATING HIM RIGHT NOW. BUT YOU ASK WHAT HAPPENED, THOUGH. I MEAN, LOOK, TRUMP HAS BEEN ON THE MINDS OF PEOPLE IN THE STATE FOR A VERY LONG TIME. HE’S A FORMER PRESIDENT,

A CELEBRITY FOR ALL. HE CAME HERE TO NEW HAMPSHIRE TO FLIRT WITH A POLITICAL ONE IN 1987. HE HAD FANS AND HE HAD CROWDS WAY BACK THEN. THAT IS ALL VERY HARD TO BEAT. AND HIS MESSAGING REALLY WITH AMERICANS WHEN IT’S ABOUT THE BORDER AND THE ECONOMY, ALL OF IT.

SO TODAY, HALEY’S SUPER-PAC SAYS THAT IT’S PREPARED FOR A LONG TERM BATTLE HERE WITH TRUMP. >> BUT WHILE SHE WILL CONTINUE ON IF SHE GETS BEAT IN HER OWN STATE, LET’S JUST A REALITY CHECK. AND YOU SAID SHE GETS BEAT IN HER OWN STATE. I THINK THE QUESTION IS,

WILL SHE COMPETE IN HER OWN HOME STATE. I MEAN, THERE’S A LOT OF TIME FOR HER TO DECIDE HERE. THE PRIMARY THERE IS FEBRUARY 24TH. EXACTLY. YOU SAID ONE MONTH AWAY. BUT THIS IS SOMEONE WHO WANTS A POLITICAL FUTURE. SHE’S 52 YEARS OLD. NO POLITICIAN WANTS TO GET

EMBARRASSED THEIR OWN HOME STATE, ESPECIALLY IF SHE’S TRAILING BY DOUBLE DIGITS THEN, AS SHE IS NOW. THERE’S A VERY STRONG CHANCE THAT SHE DROPS OUT IF THOSE NUMBERS HOLD AND BECOME OR AS I REMEMBER, FALLING 2019, SHE DROPPED OUT BEFORE HER NAME COULD EVEN APPEAR ON CALIFORNIA’S BALLOT ON SUPER TUESDAY.

NO ONE EVER WANTS TO GET BEATEN IN THEIR OWN HOME STATE. ALL RIGHT. STAY TUNED, ZOHREEN SHAH APPRECIATE ALL YOUR REPORTING. WE’RE ALSO BREAKING DOWN THE MOST RECENT DATA FROM NEW HAMPSHIRE AND LOOKING FORWARD TO SOUTH CAROLINA. LET’S BRING IN OUR ABC NEWS POLITICAL DIRECTOR RICK KLEIN WITH MORE ON THAT.

HEY, RICK. >> KYRA, WHAT NIKKI HALEY IS TRYING TO DO IS QUITE A DAUNTING NOW. SHE’S RIGHT. THE ONLY TWO LITTLE STATES OF VOTERS, ALL THESE OTHER STATES LEFT ON THE CALENDAR. >> BUT IF YOU LOOK AT WHAT COMES UP JUST AFTER WHAT WE’VE ALREADY HAD SO FAR, THE NEXT

STATE UP IS NEVADA, 26 DELEGATES. GUESS WHAT? NIKKI HALEY CAN’T GET ANY OF THEM. SHE’S NOT EVEN ON THE BALLOT ON THE CAUCUSES THERE. SO THAT IS OUT FOR CONSIDERATION. NEXT UP AFTER THAT IS HER HOME STATE OF SOUTH CAROLINA. THAT IS SO IMPORTANT, HER, FRANKLY.

>> SHE’S GOT TO WIN THAT STATE TO HAVE ANY CHANCE TO BE ABLE MOVE FORWARD TO MICHIGAN AND THEN TO SUPER TUESDAY. HER TEAM TALKING ABOUT A LOT OF STATES THAT VOTE ON SUPER TUESDAY THAT ALLOW INDEPENDENTS THAT A OF DEMOCRATS TO VOTE. SIMILAR TO NEW HAMPSHIRE, YOU CAN CHANGE THE ELECTORATE

BASED YOUR MESSAGING. SHE WOULD LOVE TO BE ABLE TO GET TO NORTH CAROLINA, TO VIRGINIA, TO MASSACHUSETTS. THAT’S TO TEXAS. THE ONLY WAY, THOUGH, FUNCTIONALLY SHE GETS THERE IS IF SHE WINS IN SOUTH CAROLINA. AND HERE’S SOME OF WHAT SHE’S UP AGAINST IN SOUTH CAROLINA. SHE WAS ELECTED TWICE STATEWIDE.

BUT GUESS WHAT? SHE HAS NEVER COME CLOSE IN THE TO DONALD TRUMP IN THAT STATE RIGHT NOW IN THE FIVETHIRTYEIGHT POLLING AVERAGE ,SHE’S DOWN 35 POINTS TO DONALD TRUMP. IT IS A FULL MONTH AWAY. >> THAT’S REALLY UNUSUAL WHEN USED TO KIND OF A FAST PACE HERE, BUT THAT IS TIME FOR

NIKKI HALEY TO START TO MAKE UP . SHE’S ALREADY GOT ADVERTISING. SHE’S GOING TO BE THERE LATER TODAY FOR HER FIRST CAMPAIGN RALLY AFTER NEW HAMPSHIRE SO SHE COULD DO IT. BUT ALSO HEARD FROM DONALD TRUMP BEGINNING TO FORECAST SOME OF THE ATTACKS THAT ARE COMING IN. SHE’S GOING TO HAVE TO CLOSE

THAT GAP AND CLOSE IT FAST IF SHE’S GOING TO HAVE ANY SHOT AT THE NOMINATION KYRA. >> ALL RIGHT. WE’RE KIND THANKS SO MUCH. MILLIONS OF AMERICANS ARE ON ALERT AND IN THE PATH, MORE EXTREME WEATHER. FLOOD RAVAGED SAN DIEGO STILL RECOVERING FROM. DAYS OF TORRENTIAL RAIN. THE NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE

CONFIRMING THAT HAD ITS FOURTH WEDNESDAY ON RECORD THIS WEEK. SAN DIEGO’S MAYOR SAYING, IT WILL TAKE MONTHS TO CLEAN UP NOW. AND THEN HEAVY RAINS SLAMMING PARTS OF TEXAS. FLOOD WARNINGS THERE IN EFFECT IN THE EASTERN PART OF THE STATE. AND EXTREME WEATHER COULD ALSO BRING DAMAGING WINDS AND POSSIBLE TORNADOES TO.

THE SOUTH. METEOROLOGIST SOMARA THEODORE IS TRACKING ALL OF IT FOR US TOMORROW. >> WHERE WOULD YOU LIKE TO BEGIN? WELL, WE’RE GOING TO HEAD TO THE GULF COAST STATES BECAUSE THAT IS THE IMMINENT THREAT THERE RIGHT NOW? WE ARE. WE’VE ALREADY BEEN COPIOUS AMOUNTS OF RAIN FALLING IN THIS

REGION AND THEY’RE IN FOR MORE RAIN FROM TO BIRMINGHAM TODAY. WE HAVE THE THREAT FOR FLOODING. NOW, IF YOU LOOK IN THIS LITTLE RED POCKET HERE, ALEXANDRA IN NEW ORLEANS, JACKSON, MISSISSIPPI, YOU ALL HAVE THE HIGHEST RISK FOR FLASH FLOODING. AND THAT’S WHERE WE SEE SOME OF THE HEAVIEST RAINFALL IN TODAY

BETWEEN HOUSTON AND JACKSON, MISSISSIPPI THERE IS ALSO A THREAT FOR TORNADOES. SO THESE STORMS THAT ARE RIDING THROUGH, THEY HAVE AMPLE MOISTURE. THEY’RE PULLING ON THAT MOISTURE FROM THE GULF OF MEXICO. >> THEY’RE USING THE MOISTURE FROM THAT SYSTEM THAT BROUGHT THE FLOODING TO SAN DIEGO JUST A MONDAY.

AND WE ARE IN FOR THE THREAT FOR TORNADOES ALONG WITH THAT FLASH FLOODING. WE COULD SEE 3 TO 6 PLUS INCHES OF RAIN. THAT’S A LOT OF RAIN IN A SHORT AMOUNT OF TIME. AND THEN ATLANTA, YOU’RE UP NEXT TOMORROW, YOU’LL BE IN FOR SHOWERS, 2 TO 3 INCHES ROUGHLY,

BUT SOME SPOTS COULD HIT FIVE INCHES OF RAIN. SO FLOODING THEN BECOME AN ISSUE IN ATLANTA. >> LET’S TALK TO THE NORTHEAST NEXT. SO HERE ARE IN SARANAC LAKE, NEW YORK. THIS WAS TAKEN EARLIER TODAY, ABSOLUTELY GORGEOUS WINTER. THAT’S ALL SHIFTING. THE SAME STORM SYSTEM GETS

A LOT OF WARM WITH IT AND WE SEE MORE RAIN START TO MOVE INTO UPSTATE NEW YORK AS OPPOSED TO WINTRY WEATHER. SO WE’RE STARTING TO SEE THOSE WINTER WEATHER ADVISORIES FALL OFF AS WE HEAD THROUGH THE HOURS. PENNSYLVANIA, SCRANTON, SYRACUSE, BOSTON, ALL RAIN, MAYBE A BIT OF ICE, TOO, UP

TOWARDS CITIES LIKE PORTLAND, MAINE, PARTS OF NEW HAMPSHIRE AND VERMONT. >> SO KEEP THAT IN MIND THEN WE GO FROM ICE TO WARM AIR. LOOK AT THIS CLIMATOLOGICAL OUTLOOK FOR JANUARY 31ST TO FEBRUARY SIX, AS WE ENTER FEBRUARY, WE ARE EXPECTING NEAR RECORD HIGH TEMPERATURES FOR AREAS NEAR THE GREAT LAKES.

>> THIS INCLUDES KANSAS CITY AS WELL AS CHICAGO. AS FAR AS TEMPERATURES GO, KYRA, BY THE OF THE WEEK, WASHINGTON, D.C. COULD BE IN THE LOW SEVENTIES. >> WELL, OKAY. WELL, THAT’S GOOD FOR US. THE VIRUS. THANK YOU SO MUCH. WELL, THE U.S. MILITARY IS LAUNCHING FIERCE ROUND

OF ATTACKS ON THE IRAN BACKED MILITIA GROUPS. THIS TIME IRAQ. SECRETARY OF DEFENSE AUSTIN CALLING THE STRIKES A DIRECT RESPONSE. THE IRANIAN SPONSORED ATTACKS AGAINST U.S. FORCES IN THE REGION. U.S. CENTRAL COMMAND REPORTING TUESDAY’S STRIKES TARGETED THREE SITES IN IRAQ, INCLUDING A WEAPONS STORAGE FACILITY, HOUSING ARMED AND MISSILES.

ALSO BLAMING THE MILITIA GROUPS FOR THOSE ATTACKS ON AMERICAN TROOPS LIVING ON THE AL-ASSAD AIR BASE. LET’S BRING IN SENIOR PENTAGON REPORTER LUIS MARTINEZ ALI. WHAT MORE DO WE KNOW ABOUT STRIKES IN IRAQ? KYRA, WE SPOKE WITH A U.S. OFFICIAL WHO TELLS US THAT THEY BELIEVE THAT THE STRIKES

LAST NIGHT ON THE STREET TARGETS WERE EFFECTIVE, THAT THEY HIT TWO HEADQUARTERS BUILDINGS AND AN INTELLIGENCE BUILDING, AND THAT THEY THAT SEVEN MEMBERS OF KATAEB HEZBOLLAH, THAT’S THE PARTICULAR ISLAMIC BACKED MILITIA THAT THEY BELIEVE IS RESPONSIBLE FOR THESE ATTACKS, WERE KILLED IN LAST NIGHT’S AIRSTRIKES. SO THAT’S THE LATEST

INFORMATION THAT WE HAVE ABOUT WHAT WHAT THEY TARGETED AND THE END RESULTS OF THOSE AIRSTRIKES, WHICH WE KNOW WERE CARRIED LAST NIGHT IN DIRECT RESPONSE TO THAT ATTACK ON AL-ASAD AIR BASE, WHERE 17 MISSILES AND ROCKETS WERE LAUNCHED AT THAT BASE IN WESTERN IRAQ, INJURING AT LEAST FOUR SERVICE MEMBERS

WITH TRAUMATIC BRAIN INJURIES. SO CENTCOM ALSO ANNOUNCING THIS AIRSTRIKE IN YEMEN TARGETING THE HOUTHI ANTI-SHIP MISSILES. >> DO YOU HAVE ON THAT? KYRA, THIS IS THE NINTH AIR STRIKE CARRIED OUT BY THE UNITED STATES IN RETALIATION, THE HOUTHIS LAUNCHING THESE ATTACKS ON SHIPPING VESSELS,

GOING THE RED SEA AND THE GULF OF ADEN. SO THE RESPONSE THERE IS ANYTHING UNITED STATES SEES THAT THESE MISSILES ARE BEING LOADED. THEY ARE TO STRIKE AT THEM PREEMPTIVELY. THAT’S WHAT WE’VE SEEN OVER THE LAST WEEK. EARLIER THIS, WE SAW THIS COORDINATED MISSION, WHICH THE UNITED STATES AND UNITED KINGDOM THAT STRUCK

A VARIETY OF TARGETS THROUGHOUT YEMEN. AND THE GOAL HERE IS TO DEGRADE THE HOUTHIS CAPABILITY OF MISSILES. BUT AS WE JUST LEARNED THIS AFTERNOON, THERE WAS YET ANOTHER ATTACK, DID NOT STRIKE A VESSEL AND AN AMERICAN SHIP. BUT ANOTHER AMERICAN STORY THAT WAS NEARBY HAD TO SHOOT DOWN TWO OR THREE MISSILES

AIMED AT THAT SHIP. >> SO HOW WORRIED U.S. OFFICIALS NOW ABOUT THIS CONFLICT CONTINUING TO ESCALATE ANY FURTHER? COULD WE SEE OTHER TARGETS POSSIBLY? >> WELL, YOU KNOW, WE’RE SEEING NOW A TOTAL OF TEN AIRSTRIKES HITTING A LOT SINCE JANUARY, THE ONE IN IRAQ AND THE NINE IN YEMEN.

AMERICAN SAYING THAT THEY ARE TRYING TO DEGRADE THE CAPABILITIES OF THE MILITIAS, IRAQ, AS WELL AS THE HOUTHIS IN YEMEN, AND THAT THEY’RE NOT LOOKING FOR CONFLICT. SO ULTIMATELY, IT’S ALWAYS IN THE COURT OF, THOSE MILITIAS AND THESE BECAUSE THE UNITED STATES, THEY DON’T WANT CONFLICT TO GROW. AND THE CONFLICT WE’RE TALKING

ABOUT IS HAMAS AND ISRAEL AND GAZA. AND THE GOAL HERE IS TO CONTAIN ALL THAT VIOLENCE TAKING PLACE IN THESE OTHER COUNTRIES. >> ALL RIGHT, LUIS MARTINEZ. WE’LL CONTINUE TO FOLLOW IT ALL WITH. YOU APPRECIATE IT. ALSO, A RUSSIAN MILITARY PLANE CARRYING 74 PEOPLE, 65 OF THEM

UKRAINIAN PRISONERS OF WAR HAS CRASHED NEAR THE RUSSIA UKRAINE BORDER. IT’S BEING REPORTED RUSSIAN STATE MEDIA. AND IT SAYS THAT THE CAPTURED SOLDIERS WERE BEING TAKEN TO A PRISONER EXCHANGE AND A REGIONAL SAYS THAT EVERYONE ON BOARD WAS KILLED. UKRAINE HAS NOT CONFIRMED THIS INCIDENT, NOR THAT A PRISONER EXCHANGE WAS EVEN PLANNED.

>> WE’LL TRACK IT COMING UP. PROSECUTORS HAVE REVEALED NEVER BEFORE SEEN EVIDENCE IN THE CASE AGAINST MICHELLE TROCONIS . THE NEW VIDEOS AND HOW IT ALL CONNECTS TO THE MURDER OF JENNIFER DULOS WHEN WE RETURN. WHENEVER NEWS BREAKS, WE ARE HERE IN ISRAEL, A NATION AT WAR AFTER THAT BRUTAL

SURPRISE ATTACK BY HAMAS ON THE GROUND IN UKRAINE FROM LEWISTON, MAINE, THE SCENE OF A HORRIFIC MASS SHOOTING, ABC NEWS IS RIGHT THERE EVERYWHERE FROM THE SCENE OF THAT DEADLY MISSION STRIKE.

WE’RE STREAMING ABC NEWS LIVE, ABC NEWS LIVE HERE, STREAMING ABC NEWS LIVE, ABC NEWS LIVE, STREAMING FREE EVERYWHERE. >> AMERICA’S NUMBER ONE STREAMING NEWS STATE POLICE .

THERE’S A YOUNG GIRL RUNNING AROUND HERE SCREAMING AND THERE WAS SOME GUY TRYING FOLLOW THE 911 CALL IS A CRUCIAL PIECE OF EVIDENCE. UNRAVELING THE MYSTERY. COULD FOUR MURDERS ON LONG ISLAND BE THE WORK OF A SERIAL KILLER? THEY START, FIND MORE BODIES. SUDDENLY IT’S AN ARM OR A LEG.

WHAT IS GOING ON? I NEVER ONCE FEARED FOR MY LIFE. WHEN I MET HIM, IT WAS THE ONLY TIME I STARED TRUTH IN THE LAST TEN YEARS. >> THURSDAY NIGHT ON ABC. FIRST THING IN THE MORNING. THERE’S A LOT GOING ON. EVERYBODY IN THAT HOME IS OKAY

TO CATCH YOU UP WITH WHAT HAPPENED OVERNIGHT. WE ARE AT FASHION’S BIGGEST NIGHT OUT. WHAT’S HAPPENING TODAY? YOUTUBE HAS UNVEILED A NEW SET OF POLICIES. WHAT PEOPLE ARE TALKING ABOUT, THE NEW AD FAST, STRAIGHT FORWARD WITH SOME FUN IN BETWEEN A REAL LIFE BARBIE DREAM HOUSE. A NAME CHANGE FOR

THE WIENERMOBILE FIRST THING IN THE MORNING, AMERICA THIS MORNING, AMERICA’S NUMBER ONE EARLY MORNING NEWS ON ABC NEWS. >> WHAT SO, SO GLAD YOU’RE SWIMMING WITH US. >> WELL, HE WAS CONVICTED FOR OPENING FIRE AT HIS HIGH SCHOOL, KILLING FOUR PEOPLE AND WOUNDING SEVERAL OTHERS. NOW, THE MOTHER OF ETHAN

CRUMBLY IS IN COURT FOR GIVING HER SON ACCESS TO THAT GUN. JENNIFER CRUMBLY, NOW FACING FOUR COUNTS OF INVOLUNTARY. HER SON, ETHAN, HAS SINCE BEEN SENTENCED TO LIFE IN PRISON WITHOUT, THE POSSIBILITY OF PAROLE. PROSECUTORS SAY HIS PARENTS DIDN’T TELL OFFICIALS ETHAN HAD ACCESS TO THAT GUN WHEN

THEY WERE CALLED A SCHOOL MEETING JUST HOURS BEFORE THE SHOOTING. THE TRIAL IS THE FIRST TIME PARENTS HAVE BEEN CHARGED IN CONNECTION WITH THE SCHOOL IN THE UNITED STATES. OUR TREVOR AULT AND LEGAL CONTRIBUTOR BRIAN BUCKMIRE HAVE BEEN FOLLOWING THE CASE FROM THE VERY BEGINNING. BRIAN, LET’S START WITH YOU.

WHAT CAN WE EXPECT TO HAPPEN IN COURT TODAY? >> SO THERE WILL BE MORE JURY SELECTION FOR WHAT WE’RE SEEING IN DAYS. THE DEFENSE AND PROSECUTION ARE FOCUSING ON ISSUES LIKE GUN PARENTAL RESPONSIBILITY, WHAT YOU BELIEVE IN TERMS OF WHAT A PARENT SHOULD DO, IN TERMS OF KEEPING THAT GUN

LOCKED AND SAFELY CLEARLY KNOW THAT THE SHOOTER IN THIS CASE HAD ACCESS TO GUN. AND SO WHAT THE DEFENSE AND PROSECUTION ARE TRYING TO DO IS TRYING TO FIND AN UNBIASED PERSON, NOT NECESSARILY SOMEONE WHO DOESN’T KNOW ABOUT THE CASE, BUT KNOWS MORE ABOUT THE CASE. THE LAW WILL HOLD JUDGMENT

UNTIL. THEY SEE ALL THE EVIDENCE IN THIS CASE. THEY’RE EXPECTING TO FIND A JURY BY THE END OF TODAY AND THEN POTENTIALLY START WHAT I BELIEVE TO BE A 3 TO 4 WEEK TRIAL. AND THEN THE HUSBAND HAVING A TRIAL RIGHT AFTER THAT. >> SO AMONG THE EVIDENCE AGAINST THE PARENTS HERE

ARE THESE MESSAGES THAT THE PARENTS ACTUALLY SENT THEIR SON ON THE DAY OF THE SHOOTING, EVEN THE ONE THAT WE SAW, DON’T DO IT. HOW THOSE IMPACT THE TRIAL HERE. >> YEAH. SO SOME CONTEXT FOR TEXT MESSAGE, KYRA, ACCORDING TO PROSECUTORS, IS THAT ONE OF THE SHOOTER’S PARENTS, AFTER THE SHOOTING HAD STARTED

TO HAPPEN AND WORD WAS SPREADING AROUND THE COMMUNITY, ONE OF THOSE PARENTS LEARNED THAT A SHOOTING WAS HAPPENING AT THE SCHOOL. THEY DIDN’T KNOW WHO WAS DOING IT, BUT IMMEDIATELY THEN, ACCORDING TO PROSECUTORS, TEXTED THEIR SON, DON’T DO IT, WHICH I BELIEVE PROSECUTORS ARE GOING TO USE AS EVIDENCE

TO SHOW THAT THESE PARENTS HAD IT. SO IN THE FRONT OF THEIR MINDS THAT THEIR SON COULD BE CAPABLE OF DOING THIS, THAT AS SOON AS THEY HEARD A SHOOTING OCCURRED, THEY ASSUMED IT WAS THEIR SON, WHICH THEY BELIEVE, ACCORDING TO PROSECUTORS, IS PROOF THAT THEY KNEW THIS A POSSIBILITY AND THEY DIDN’T

DO ENOUGH OR ANYTHING TO STOP IT. THAT, OF COURSE, IS GOING TO BE THE CRUX OF THIS ENTIRE ARGUMENT. AS WE HAVE SAID, IS THE FIRST TIME THAT PARENTS HAVE BEEN CHARGED IN THE CASE OF A SCHOOL SHOOTING, BASICALLY WHAT PROSECUTORS HAVE SAID AND I WAS THERE IN THE

AFTERMATH OF THE SHOOTING HAVE TALKED THE PROSECUTOR MYSELF, SHE SAID THAT SHE’S NOT TRYING TO SET A PRECEDENT HERE ABOUT, YOU KNOW, ALL PARENTS NEED TO BE HELD RESPONSIBLE FOR THEIR CHILD’S BEHAVIOR, BUT THEY FELT THE PARENTS BEHAVIOR WAS SO HERE THAT IT WAS CRIMINAL IN NATURE KYRA.

>> SO, BRIAN OVER THE PAST 25 MONTHS, THE PARENTS HAD LARGELY ARGUED TOGETHER COURT BATTLES AS THEY APPEALED CHARGES ALL THE WAY TO THE STATE SUPREME COURT. BUT LAST OCTOBER, THE MICHIGAN SUPREME COURT REFUSED TO HEAR APPEALS FROM, THE CRUMBLES. >> WHY DO YOU THINK THAT IS? SO THE MICHIGAN SUPREME COURT

GAVE US THIS THREE LINE PARAGRAPH BASICALLY SAYING THAT WHAT WAS DECIDING AN APPEALS COURT, THAT THE LOWER COURT JUST ALONG THE MICHIGAN SUPREME WILL TO STAY. >> THEY SAID THAT THE ISSUE PRESENTS ARE NOT ONES THAT THEY BELIEVE SHOULD BE ADDRESSED. THERE ARE A NUMBER OF REASONS WHY A STATE SUPREME COURT WOULD

SAY THAT CONCEPT OF LIKENESS THAT IS NOT READY FOR THEM TO DECIDE. >> BUT I THINK REGARDLESS WHAT THE PROSECUTOR THINKS, THIS WILL BE A CASE THAT SETS A PRECEDENT AROUND THE COUNTRY . YEAH, I THINK IT WILL, TOO. AND WE’RE GOING TO FOLLOW IT CLOSELY. TREVOR BRYAN, THANK YOU BOTH SO MUCH.

WELL, PROSECUTORS HAVE REVEALED NEVER BEFORE SEEN EVIDENCE IN THE CASE AGAINST MICHELLE TROCONIS. SHE’S THAT CONNECTICUT WOMAN ACCUSED OF HELPING HER LATE BOYFRIEND COVER UP THE MURDER OF HIS ESTRANGED JENNIFER DULOS. NOW, PROSECUTORS SAY THAT VIDEOS AND OTHER CONNECTS TROCONIS TO THE CRIME. THE DEFENSE ARGUES THAT TROCONIS HAD NO IDEA

WHAT HER BOYFRIEND WAS UP TO. HERE’S OUR ERIELLE RESHEF MORE. >> GOOD MORNING, YOUR HONOR. A JURY. THE CASE AGAINST MICHELLE TROCONIS, THE ALLEGED ACCOMPLICE, GIRLFRIEND OF THE CONNECTICUT FATHER ACCUSED OF KILLING HIS ESTRANGED THE MOTHER OF THEIR FIVE CHILDREN, JENNIFER DULOS, MISSING FOR FOUR YEARS BEFORE BEING DECLARED LEGALLY DEAD

IN 2023. HER HUSBAND, FOTIS DULOS, DYING SUICIDE WHILE AWAITING TRIAL FOR HER DEATH. NOW TRACON IS FACING CHARGES INCLUDING CONSPIRACY TO COMMIT MURDER. PROSECUTORS ZEROING IN ON SURVEILLANCE VIDEOS SHOWING PHOTOS ALLEGEDLY TRAVELING MILES FROM HIS HOME TO HARTFORD IN HIS BLACK PICKUP TRUCK AFTER HIS ESTRANGED WIFE’S DISAPPEARANCE, THROWING AWAY.

30 BAGS OF ITEMS IN VARIOUS TRASH RECEPTACLES AROUND CITY. ONE SHOT SHOWING A WOMAN BENDING OUT OF THAT TRUCK. >> PROSECUTORS SAY IT WAS TROCONIS. HER ATTORNEYS DENY HER COMPLICITY CLEARLY WAS INVOLVED. BUT, YOU KNOW, THE BOTTOM LINE IS YOU GET TO SEE ANYTHING THAT SUGGESTS THAT CULTURE,

ANYTHING NEW ABOUT WHAT THE SMARTEST TACTIC THAT THE DEFENSE CAN TAKE IS TO ADMIT THAT SHE WAS IN THE CAR. IF SHE WAS IN THE CAR, THEN HER DNA IS GOING TO BE FOUND ON. THEY DON’T HAVE TO EXPLAIN THAT PORTION OF THE EVIDENCE. THEY JUST HAVE TO DISPUTE NOW

WHETHER OR NOT SHE WAS KNOWLEDGEABLE OF WHAT THESE ITEMS IN COURT TUESDAY. JURORS SEEING ZIP TIES, GLOVES AND CLOTHING WITH BLOODSTAINS PROSECUTORS SAY WERE PULLED FROM THOSE TRASH BINS BEFORE HER DEATH. JENNIFER? AND PHOTOS LOCKED IN A BITTER DIVORCE CUSTODY BATTLE. AND PROSECUTORS ALLEGE TROCONIS PLOTTED WITH HIM TO KILL

JENNIFER, THEN COVER UP THE CRIME. THE FAMILY TAKING TO THE STAND DESCRIBING THE DAY SHE REPORTED JENNIFER MISSING THE SECOND I CALLED JENNIFER. >> IT’S LIKE MY STOMACH JUST SANK BECAUSE SHE NEVER ANSWERED THE PHONE. >> OH MY THANKS TO ERIELLE RESHEF FOR THAT WILL FOLLOW IT.

ALSO COMING UP, HE GOT AWAY IS PRETENDING TO BE A POLICE OFFICER THREE YEARS. NOW THE EVIDENCE AND CHARGES HE FACES NEXT TONIGHT AFTER THE GOP FACE OFF WHERE THE RACE FOR THE WHITE HOUSE STANDS. PLUS, THE WARS IN AND UKRAINE AND THE STRIKES AGAINST TUTSIS IN AND.

THE JUSTICE DEPARTMENT SAYS HE WAS ALSO PLOTTING AN ARMED INSURRECTION OF PORTLAND, OREGON STATE CAPITOL BREW MAINTAINS HIS INNOCENCE. INVESTIGATORS SAY A MAN IN AUSTIN, TEXAS, GOT AWAY WITH PRETENDING TO BE A COP FOR THREE YEARS.

OUR AFFILIATE KATU REPORTING 35-YEAR-OLD SEAN MCDONALD, SEEN HERE, POSTED PHOTOS, VIDEOS OF HIMSELF WEARING AN AUSTIN POLICE OFFICER’S UNIFORM IN SOME PHOTOS, EVEN WEARING A FULLY EQUIPPED GUN BELT. DONALD IS CHARGED WITH MISDEMEANOR FALSE ID AS A OFFICER AND COULD FACE UP TO SIX MONTHS IN JAIL. HE RECALLING MORE THAN 100,000

CARS, NOW SAYING PARTS OF THE CAR’S ROOF MOLDING MAY DETACH AND INCREASE THE RISK OF A CRASH. RECALL KIA SPORTAGE AND CARNIVAL MODELS. THE CAR MANUFACTURER SAYS NOT AWARE OF ANY CRASHES OR INJURIES RELATED TO THE DEFECT AS OF NOW. BUT DRIVERS MAY NOTICE A NOISE WHILE DRIVING IF THEIR VEHICLE

IS AFFECTED. WELL, IT’S A SNUB THAT JUST KEEPS ON SNAPPING. AND NOW THE STARS ARE WEIGHING IN ON THE SWIRLING CONTROVERSY FOLLOWING OSCAR DISS INVOLVING BARBIE. DESPITE THE FILMS YEAR, GRETA GERWIG WAS NOT NOMINATED IN THE DIRECTOR CATEGORY. MARGOT ROBBIE GOT NO NOMINATION FOR LEAD ACTRESS. SO NOMINATED COSTARS

RYAN GOSLING IN AMERICA ARE NOW SPEAKING OUT. HERE’S OUR LARA SPENCER CARLSON CONFUSION IN HOLLYWOOD OVER A MAJOR SNUB. >> HI, BABY. HI, BARBIE. BARBIE, EIGHT NOMINATIONS. AND IT TURNS OUT, IN FACT, THAT NOT ONLY ARE YOU DOING EVERYTHING WRONG, BUT ALSO EVERYTHING IS YOUR FAULT, INCLUDING SUPPORTING ACTRESS FOR AMERICA FERRERA.

>> I’M JUST KIDDING. AND SUPPORTING ACTOR FOR RYAN GOSLING. THE MOVIE ALSO GETTING BEST PICTURE NOD, BUT LEFT OUT THE BILLION DOLLAR BLOCKBUSTER . MARGOT ROBBIE FOR BEST ACTRESS AND GRETA GERWIG FOR DIRECTING. >> I THINK THAT’S THE NAME EVERYONE HAS ON THEIR LIVES IS NOT BARBIE, IT’S GRETA GERWIG.

GRETA DID GET NOMINATED FOR ADAPTED SCREENPLAY, BUT SHE WAS SNUBBED AND BEST DIRECTOR, WHICH MANY PEOPLE, INCLUDING MYSELF, THAT SHE WAS GOING TO BE A SHOO IN FOR. >> FANS ARE UPSET. DOES CAN GET AN OSCAR NOMINATION FOR BARBIE BUT BARBIE DOESN’T AN OSCAR NOMINATION FOR BARBIE. >> IF YOU SCRIPTED THIS

SCENARIO, NO ONE WOULD EVER BELIEVE YOU AND GOSLING RELEASING STATEMENT SAYING, QUOTE, THERE IS NO CANNES WITHOUT BARBIE AND THERE IS NO MOVIE WITHOUT GRETA GERWIG AND MARGOT ROBBIE. TO SAY THAT I’M DISAPPOINTED THAT THEY ARE NOT NOMINATED IN THEIR RESPECTIVE CATEGORIES WOULD BE AN UNDERSTATEMENT.

IT IS IMPOSSIBLE TO BE A WOMAN. THE NOMINATIONS FOR EACH CATEGORY, THOUGH, DETERMINED BY THOSE WHO ARE MEMBERS OF IT. MANY ACTORS VOTE. >> ACTORS AND DIRECTORS DETERMINE WHO GETS THE DIRECTING NODS. THE DIRECTORS BRANCH IS A LOT SMALLER THAN THE ACTORS BRANCH IN. >> IT DOES LEAN MUCH MORE MALE

AND AN OLDER GROUP OF VOTERS. >> BUT EXPERTS SAY THE SNUB COULD END UP PLAYING TO BARBIE’S ADVANTAGE WHEN IT COMES TO BEST PICTURE. >> ANYTHING CAN HAPPEN. ATTITUDES CAN CHANGE. >> PEOPLE CAN, YOU KNOW, RALLY BEHIND A FILM. THEY THINK THAT IT’S KIND OF LAGGING BEHIND OTHERS.

SO THIS IS DEFINITELY SOMETHING THAT THEY WANT STRATEGISTS BEHIND. BARBIE OR ANY OTHER FILMS FOR THAT MATTER, WILL PROBABLY CONSIDER AND TRY TO TAKE ADVANTAGE. >> AND OUR THANKS TO LARA SPENCER FOR THAT. THANKS FOR SHARING WITH US. I’M KYRA PHILLIPS. THE NEWS NEVER STOPS.

NEW ALASKA AIRLINES JET, RESULTING IN THE GROUNDED MAX NINE AIRPLANES. DONALD TRUMP MAY HAVE BEAT NIKKI HALEY, BUT SHE VOWS STAY IN THE FIGHT. THE FORMER PRESIDENT DOUBLING DOWN ON HIS ATTACKS WHILE FORMER SOUTH CAROLINA GOVERNOR SAYS HER STATE WILL PROTECT HER STATE OF THE RACE STRAIGHT AHEAD. AND EXTREME WEATHER ACROSS

THE COUNTRY, STATES NOW UNDER FLOOD WATCHES. YOUR LIFE FORECAST THIS HOUR. AND GOOD AFTERNOON, EVERYONE. I’M KYRA PHILLIPS. WE DO BEGIN WITH THE CEO OF BOEING UNDER FIRE NOW FACING LAWMAKERS ON CAPITOL HILL. THE MEETING COMES AMID GROWING SCRUTINY AFTER A SERIES OF INCIDENTS INVOLVING BOEING JETS, INCLUDING THAT MIDAIR

DOOR BLOWOUT ON AN ALASKA AIRLINES 737 MAX NINE EARLIER THIS MONTH. THE FAA IS ALSO INVESTIGATING A BOEING PLANE INCIDENT IN ATLANTA PAST WEEKEND WHERE A TIRE ACTUALLY FELL OFF A DELTA FLIGHT JUST BEFORE TAKEOFF. >> WELL, YES. OFF THIS HOUR, OUR TRANSPORTATION REPORTER SAM SWEENEY, ALSO OUR JAY O’BRIEN, WHO’S

FOLLOWING EVERYTHING HAPPENING THERE ON THE HILL AS WELL. SO, SAM, LET’S START WITH YOU. LET’S TALK ABOUT BOEING CEO, DAVE CALHOUN. WHAT IS HE HAD TO SAY? WHAT IS HE SAID FAR? WELL, HERE DAVE CAMERON SHOWED UP THIS MORNING. HE ACTUALLY REQUESTED THIS MEETING WITH LAWMAKERS. YOU CAN IMAGINE HE IS UNDER

EXTREME PRESSURE NOT ONLY FROM THE PRIVATE SECTOR, BUT ALSO FEDERAL OFFICIALS AND, LAWMAKERS HERE ON CAPITOL HILL. AND HE IS HERE THIS MORNING ON DAMAGE CONTROL. HE SPOKE BRIEFLY BEFORE HE WENT INTO A MEETING WITH SENATORS. LISTEN. >> I SAY THINGS WE DON’T GET AIRPLANES IN THE AIR

THAT WE DON’T HAVE 100% CONFIDENCE IN. I’M HERE TODAY IN THE SPIRIT OF TRANSPARENCY. NUMBER ONE, RECOGNIZE THE SERIOUSNESS OF WHAT YOU JUST ASKED. NUMBER TWO, TO SHARE EVERYTHING I CAN WITH OUR CAPITOL HILL INTERESTS AND ANSWER ALL THEIR QUESTIONS BECAUSE THEY HAVE LOT OF THEM. >> DEFINITELY A LOT

OF QUESTIONS FROM A LOT OF WE ARE NOW HEARING FROM AIRLINES ABOUT MORE OR LOSE PARTS ON MORE. AND KYRA, WE STILL DON’T HAVE ANY ANSWERS FROM BOEING OR FAA ON WHEN THOSE MAX NINE JETS COULD RETURN TO THE SKIES. >> HEY, A LOT OF PEOPLE WONDERING WHEN THAT WILL HAPPEN.

AND JAY, LET’S JUST TALK ABOUT WHO CALHOUN IS ACTUALLY MEETING WITH TODAY AND WHAT ARE THOSE LAWMAKERS HOPING TO GET OUT OF HIM? >> YEAH, LET ME GO THROUGH HIS AGENDA. >> HE’S MEETING WITH TED CRUZ, WHO’S RANKING MEMBER ON THE SENATE COMMERCE COMMITTEE, WHICH IS A COMMITTEE THAT IS SAM KNOWS THIS.

HE AND I HAVE BEEN IN THOSE HEARINGS THAT HAS BEEN TAKING A VERY QUIZZICAL AT THE AIRLINE INDUSTRY WRIT LARGE, WHO’S IN CHARGE OF REGULATING INDUSTRY. >> HE’S ALSO MEETING WITH MARK WARNER. WHEN I WOKE UP THIS MORNING AND SAW THESE MEETINGS, I WASN’T CLEAR WHY HE WAS MEETING WITH MARK WARNER,

WHO HAS NOTHING TO DO WITH AIRLINES. HE’S THE CHAIR OF THE INTELLIGENCE COMMITTEE, BUT A COLLEAGUE, MINE, ALI POPCORN, WHO COVERS THE SENATE, REMINDS ME IT’S BECAUSE MARK WARNER IS THE CENTER VIRGINIA. >> AND BOEING HAS SUCH A BIG FOOTPRINT IN THE STATE OF VIRGINIA. THE THING HE’S MEETING WITH IS

POTENTIALLY ONE OF THE MOST IMPORTANT. >> WHO IS MARIA, WHO IS THE CHAIR OF THE SENATE COMMERCE COMMITTEE? SHE HAS ALREADY INDICATED SHE’S INTERESTED IN LOOKING AT WHAT WENT WRONG HERE WITH BOEING POTENTIALLY HOLDING A POTENTIAL HEARING. SHE’S ALSO SENT A LETTER TO THE FAA ASKING THEM ABOUT THEIR INSPECTIONS OF THE BOEING

PRODUCTION PLANT AND WHAT THEY CAN PROVIDE AS ANY EVIDENCE ON THAT FRONT. THEIR DEADLINE, BY THE WAY, TO GIVE HER THAT INFORMATION IS TOMORROW KYRA. ALL RIGHT. IN JUST ONE MORE, SAM, I YOU DON’T MIND. WE HAVE BEEN TALKING ABOUT HOW HOW ALL THESE NINE PLANES HAVE NOW BEEN GROUNDED.

DO WE KNOW ANYTHING MORE ON THE INVESTIGATIONS AND ALSO THE INSPECTIONS THAT ARE SUPPOSED TO BE TAKING PLACE? >> WELL, THE AIRLINES ARE DOING THEIR OWN INSPECTIONS, BUT THEY ARE STILL WAITING FOR INSTRUCTIONS FROM BOEING THAT HAVE BEEN SIGNED OFF BY THE FAA ON EXACTLY HOW TO FIX THESE MAX.

NINE JETS AND GET THEM BACK INTO THE AIR. AND WE ARE TOLD BY SOURCES THAT THAT COULD AT LEAST ANOTHER WEEK AWAY. BUT WHAT WE ARE NOW LEARNING IS THAT THESE AIRLINES ARE FINDING MORE OF THESE PARTS. AS I MENTIONED EARLIER ON THESE PLANES. CERTAINLY CONCERNS FOR BRAND NEW AIRCRAFT.

AND NOW THE FEDERAL GOVERNMENT IS SENDING INSPECTORS TO BOEING TO, GO OVER THERE, THEIR PARTS AND THEIR PROCESSES TO SEE HOW THEY PUT THESE PLANES TOGETHER AND FIGURE OUT WHAT WENT WRONG HERE. ALL RIGHT, SANJAY, THANK YOU BOTH SO MUCH. WE’LL FOLLOW IT ALL THROUGHOUT THE DAY. >> OF COURSE.

>> SO IT MAY HAVE BEEN A DOUBLE DIGIT VICTORY FOR DONALD TRUMP. IT NIKKI HALEY SAYS SHE VOWS TO STAY IN THE FIGHT. THE NEW HAMPSHIRE PRIMARY NOW MARKING THE FORMER PRESIDENT’S SECOND MAJOR WIN IN HIS BID BE REELECTED. AND DESPITE DEFEATING THE FORMER U.N. AMBASSADOR BY MORE THAN POINTS, THE FORMER

SOUTH CAROLINA GOVERNOR SAYS SHE’S NOT GIVING UP. HALEY NOW TAKING THE RACE TO HER HOME STATE WHERE SHE SERVED GOVERNOR WITH THE SOUTH CAROLINA PRIMARY. EXACTLY ONE MONTH AWAY NOW. OUR ZOHREEN SHAH IS ON THE TRAIL IN NEW HAMPSHIRE, JOINS US NOW WITH MORE. SO NIKKI HALEY WAS REALLY

HOPING TO BE THE IN NEW HAMPSHIRE. >> WHAT HAPPENED? YEAH, HOPE IS VERY DIFFERENT FROM REALITY. I MEAN, WE SPOKE THAT WHOLE WEEK BEFORE, RIGHT. I DON’T THINK THIS IS A SURPRISE THAT. LAST WEEK, SHE WAS TRAILING BY DOUBLE DIGITS. SHE WAS EXPECTED TO LOSE.

BUT WHAT SHE DID DO WAS SHOW SOME WEAKNESS WITH FRONT. SHE LOST INDEPENDENT VOTERS BY 24 POINTS. AND END POLITICAL EXPERTS WILL TELL YOU THAT IS VERY WEAK GOING INTO A GENERAL ELECTION. NOW, EVEN WITH HIS LEGAL WOES THAT APPEAR TO BE SORT OF BOLSTERING HIS CAMPAIGN, THAT IS SOMETHING THAT,

YOU KNOW, HIS CAMPAIGN IS KEEPING THEIR EYES ON AND PROBLEMS. AND THAT’S FRUSTRATING HIM RIGHT NOW. YOU ASKED WHAT HAPPENED, THOUGH. I MEAN, THE TRUMP HAS BEEN ON THE MINDS OF PEOPLE IN THE STATE FOR A VERY LONG TIME. HE IS A FORMER PRESIDENT, A CELEBRITY. BEFORE ALL THAT, HE CAME HERE

TO NEW HAMPSHIRE TO FLIRT WITH A POLITICAL RUN IN 1987. HE HAD BANNED AND HAD CROWDS WAY BACK THEN. THAT IS ALL VERY HARD TO BEAT. AND HIS MESSAGING REALLY RESONATES WITH AMERICANS WHEN IT’S ABOUT THE AND THE ECONOMY AND ALL OF IT. SO TODAY, HALEY PAC SAYS

THAT IT’S PREPARED FOR A LONG TERM BATTLE HERE WITH. TRUMP BUT WHILE SHE REALLY CONTINUE ON, IF SHE GETS IN HER OWN STATE, LET’S JUST HAVE A REALITY CHECK. AND YOU SAID GETS BEAT IN HER OWN STATE. I THINK THE QUESTION IS WILL SHE COMPETE IN HER OWN HOME STATE?

I MEAN, THERE’S A LOT TIME FOR HER TO DECIDE HERE. THE PRIMARY THERE IS FEBRUARY 2014, EXACTLY AS YOU SAID, ONE MONTH AWAY. BUT THIS IS SOMEONE WHO WANTS A POLITICAL FUTURE. SHE’S 52 YEARS OLD. NO POLITICIAN WANTS TO GET EMBARRASSED IN THEIR OWN HOME STATE, ESPECIALLY IF SHE’S TRAILING BY DOUBLE DIGITS

STILL THEN, AS SHE IS NOW. THERE’S A VERY STRONG CHANCE THAT SHE DROPS OUT IF THOSE NUMBERS HOLD. AND KAMALA HARRIS, I REMEMBER FOLLOWING HER IN 2019. SHE DROPPED OUT BEFORE HER NAME EVEN APPEAR ON CALIFORNIA’S BALLOT ON SUPER TUESDAY. NO ONE EVER WANTS TO GET BEATEN IN THEIR OWN HOME STATE.

ALL RIGHT. STAY ZOHREEN SHAH APPRECIATE ALL YOUR REPORTING. WE’RE ALSO BREAKING DOWN THE MOST RECENT DATA FROM NEW HAMPSHIRE AND LOOKING FORWARD TO SOUTH CAROLINA. LET’S BRING IN OUR ABC NEWS POLITICAL DIRECTOR RICK KLEIN WITH MORE ON THAT. HEY. >> KYRA, WHAT NIKKI HALEY IS TRYING TO DO IS QUITE

A DAUNTING TASK NOW. SHE’S RIGHT. THE ONLY TWO LITTLE STATES HAVE VOTED. THERE’S ALL OTHER STATES LEFT ON THE CALENDAR. BUT IF YOU LOOK AT WHAT COMES UP JUST AFTER WHAT WE’VE ALREADY HAD SO FAR, THE NEXT STATE UP IS NEVADA, 26 DELEGATES. GUESS WHAT? NIKKI HALEY CAN’T GET ANY OF THEM.

SHE’S NOT ON THE BALLOT ON THE CAUCUSES THERE. SO THAT IS OUT FOR CONSIDERATION. NEXT UP, THAT IS HER HOME STATE OF SOUTH CAROLINA. >> THAT IS SO IMPORTANT FOR HER, FRANKLY. SHE’S GOT TO WIN THAT STATE TO HAVE ANY CHANCE TO BE ABLE TO MOVE FORWARD TO MICHIGAN

AND THEN TO SUPER TUESDAY. HER TEAM IS TALKING ABOUT A LOT STATES THAT VOTE ON SUPER TUESDAY, THAT ALLOW INDEPENDENTS, THAT ALLOW DEMOCRATS TO VOTE. SIMILAR TO NEW HAMPSHIRE, YOU CAN CHANGE THE ELECTORATE BASED ON YOUR MESSAGING. SHE’D LOVE TO BE ABLE TO GET TO NORTH CAROLINA, TO VIRGINIA,

TO MASSACHUSETTS, TO TEXAS. THE ONLY WAY, THOUGH, FUNCTIONALLY SHE GETS THERE IS IF SHE WINS IN SOUTH CAROLINA. AND HERE’S SOME OF WHAT SHE’S UP AGAINST IN SOUTH CAROLINA. SHE WAS ELECTED TWICE, BUT GUESS WHAT? SHE HAS NEVER COME CLOSE IN THE POLLING TO DONALD TRUMP IN

THAT STATE RIGHT NOW IN THE FIVETHIRTYEIGHT POLLING AVERAGE, SHE’S DOWN 35 POINTS TO DONALD TRUMP. >> IT IS A FULL MONTH AWAY. >> THAT’S REALLY UNUSUAL. WE’RE USED TO KIND OF A FAST PACE HERE, BUT IS TIME FOR NIKKI HALEY TO START TO MAKE UP GROUND? SHE’S ALREADY GOT SHE’S GOING

TO BE THERE LATER TODAY FOR HER FIRST CAMPAIGN RALLY AFTER NEW HAMPSHIRE SO SHE COULD DO IT. BUT WE’VE ALSO HEARD FROM DONALD TRUMP BEGINNING TO FORECAST SOME OF THE ATTACKS THAT ARE COMING IN. SHE’S GOING TO HAVE TO CLOSE THAT GAP AND CLOSE IT FAST IF

SHE’S GOING TO ANY SHOT AT THE NOMINATION KYRA. >> ALL RIGHT, RICK KLEIN THANKS SO MUCH. WELL, MILLIONS OF AMERICANS ARE ON ALERT AND IN THE PATH OF MORE EXTREME WEATHER. FLOOD RAVAGED SAN DIEGO STILL RECOVERING FROM DAYS, TORRENTIAL RAIN. THE NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE CONFIRMED CONFIRMING THAT IT HAD FOURTH WETTEST DAY

ON RECORD THIS WEEK. SAN DIEGO’S MAYOR SAYING WILL TAKE MONTHS TO CLEAN UP NOW. AND THEN HEAVY RAINS SLAMMING OF TEXAS. FLOOD WARNINGS THERE IN EFFECT IN THE EASTERN PART OF THE STATE. AND EXTREME WEATHER COULD ALSO BRING DAMAGING WINDS, A POSSIBLE TORNADOES TO THE SOUTH. METEOROLOGIST SOMARA THEODORE

IS TRACKING ALL THAT FOR US TOMORROW. WHERE WOULD YOU LIKE TO BEGIN? >> OH, WELL, WE’RE GOING TO HEAD TO THE GULF COAST STATES BECAUSE THAT IS IMMINENT THREAT THERE RIGHT NOW. WE ARE WE’VE ALREADY BEEN SEEING COPIOUS AMOUNTS OF RAIN FALLING IN THIS REGION AND THEY’RE IN FOR MORE RAIN

FROM HOUSTON TO BIRMINGHAM TODAY. WE HAVE THE THREAT FOR FLOODING. NOW, IF YOU IN THIS LITTLE RED POCKET HERE, ALEXANDRA IN NEW ORLEANS, JACKSON, MISSISSIPPI, YOU WON’T HAVE THE HIGHEST RISK FOR FLASH FLOODING. AND THAT’S WHERE WE’LL SEE SOME OF THE HEAVIEST RAINFALL IN TODAY BETWEEN HOUSTON AND JACKSON, MISSISSIPPI.

THERE ALSO A THREAT FOR TORNADOES. SO THESE STORMS THAT ARE RIDING THROUGH, THEY HAVE AMPLE MOISTURE. THEY’RE PULLING ON THAT MOISTURE FROM THE GULF OF MEXICO. >> THEY’RE USING THE MOISTURE FROM THAT SYSTEM THAT BROUGHT THE FLOODING TO SAN DIEGO JUST A MONDAY. AND NOW WE ARE IN FOR

THE THREAT FOR TORNADOES ALONG WITH THAT FLASH FLOODING. SO WE COULD SEE TO SIX PLUS INCHES OF RAIN. >> THAT’S A LOT OF RAIN IN A SHORT AMOUNT OF TIME. AND THEN YOU’RE UP NEXT TOMORROW, YOU’LL BE IN FOR SHOWERS, 2 TO 3 INCHES ROUGHLY, BUT SOME SPOTS COULD HIT

FIVE INCHES OF RAIN. SO FLOODING COULD THEN BECOME AN ISSUE IN ATLANTA. LET’S OUT TO THE NORTHEAST NEXT. SO HERE WE ARE IN SARANAC LAKE, NEW YORK, THIS TAKEN EARLIER TODAY. >> ABSOLUTELY GORGEOUS WINTER WONDERLAND. THAT’S ALL SHIFTING. THE SAME STORM SYSTEM GETS A LOT OF WARM AIR WITH IT

AND WE SEE MORE RAIN START TO MOVE INTO UPSTATE NEW YORK AS OPPOSED TO WINTRY WEATHER. SO WE’RE STARTING TO SEE THOSE WEATHER ADVISORIES FALL OFF AS WE HEAD THROUGH THE EVENING HOURS. >> PENNSYLVANIA, SCRANTON, SYRACUSE, BOSTON, ALL RAIN, MAYBE A BIT OF ICE UP TOWARDS CITIES LIKE PORTLAND, MAINE,

AND PARTS OF NEW HAMPSHIRE AND VERMONT. >> SO KEEP THAT IN MIND. THEN WE GO FROM ICE TO WARM AIR. LOOK AT THIS. CLIMATOLOGICAL OUTLOOK FOR JANUARY 31ST TO FEBRUARY SIX. AS WE ENTER FEBRUARY, WE EXPECTING NEAR RECORD HIGH TEMPERATURES FOR AREAS NEAR THE GREAT LAKES. THIS INCLUDES KANSAS CITY

AS WELL AS CHICAGO. AS FAR AS TEMPERATURES GO, KYRA, BY THE END OF THE WEEK, WASHINGTON, D.C. COULD BE IN THE LOW SEVENTIES. >> WELL, OKAY. WELL, THAT’S GOOD FOR TOMORROW. THANK YOU SO MUCH. WELL, THE U.S. MILITARY IS LAUNCHING ANOTHER FIERCE ROUND OF ATTACKS ON THE IRAN BACKED MILITIA GROUPS.

TIME IN IRAQ. SECRETARY OF DEFENSE AUSTIN CALLING THE STRIKES A DIRECT TO THE IRANIAN SPONSORED ATTACKS AGAINST U.S. FORCES IN THE REGION. U.S. CENTRAL COMMAND REPORTING TUESDAY’S STRIKES TARGETED THREE SITES IN IRAQ, INCLUDING A WEAPONS STORAGE FACILITY, HOUSING ARMED DRONES AND MISSILES. ALSO BLAMING THE MILITIA GROUPS FOR, THOSE ATTACKS ON AMERICAN

TROOPS LIVING ON THE AL-ASSAD AIR. FOR MORE. LET’S BRING IN OUR SENIOR PENTAGON REPORTER, LUIS MARTINEZ LOUIS. WHAT MORE DO WE KNOW ABOUT THE STRIKES IN IRAQ? KYRA, WE SPOKE WITH A U.S. OFFICIAL WHO TELLS US THAT THEY BELIEVE THAT THE STRIKES LAST NIGHT ON THE STREET TARGETS WERE EFFECTIVE,

THAT THEY HIT TWO HEADQUARTERS BUILDINGS AND AN INTELLIGENCE, AND THAT THEY BELIEVE THAT SEVEN MEMBERS OF KATAEB HEZBOLLAH, THAT’S THE PARTICULAR ISLAMIC BACKED MILITIA THAT THEY BELIEVE RESPONSIBLE FOR THESE ATTACKS, WERE KILLED IN LAST NIGHT’S AIRSTRIKES. SO THAT’S THE LATEST INFORMATION THAT WE HAVE ABOUT WHAT WHAT THEY TARGETED AND THE

END RESULTS OF THESE AIRSTRIKES ,WHICH WE KNOW WERE CARRIED OUT LAST NIGHT IN DIRECT RESPONSE TO THAT ATTACK, AL-ASAD AIR BASE, WHERE 17 MISSILES AND ROCKETS WERE LAUNCHED AT THAT BASE IN WESTERN IRAQ, INJURING AT LEAST FOUR SERVICE MEMBERS WITH TRAUMATIC INJURIES. >> SO CENTCOM ALSO ANNOUNCING THIS AIRSTRIKE IN YEMEN

TARGETING THE HOUTHI ANTI MISSILES. WHAT DO YOU HAVE ON THAT? KYRA, THIS IS THE NINTH AIR STRIKE CARRIED OUT BY THE UNITED STATES IN RETALIATION FOR THE HOUTHIS LAUNCHING THESE ATTACKS ON SHIPPING VESSELS, GOING THROUGH THE RED SEA AND THE GULF OF ADEN. SO THE RESPONSE THERE IS THAT

IF THE UNITED STATES SEES THAT THESE MISSILES ARE BEING LOADED, THEY ARE GOING TO STRIKE AT THEM PREEMPTIVELY. THAT’S WHAT WE’VE OVER THE LAST WEEK. EARLIER THIS WEEK, WE SAW THIS COORDINATED MISSION, WHICH THE UNITED STATES AND THE UNITED KINGDOM, THAT STRUCK A VARIETY OF TARGETS, YEMEN.

AND THE GOAL HERE IS TO DEGRADE THE HOUTHIS CAPABILITY OF LAUNCHING MISSILES. BUT AS WE JUST LEARNED THIS AFTERNOON, THERE WAS YET ANOTHER HOUTHI ATTACK, DID NOT STRIKE A VESSEL AND WAS AN AMERICAN SHIP BY AMERICAN STORY THAT WAS NEARBY, HAD A SHOOT DOWN OR THREE MISSILES AIMED AT THAT SHIP.

SO HOW ARE U.S. OFFICIALS NOW ABOUT THIS CONFLICT CONTINUING ESCALATE ANY FURTHER? COULD WE SEE OTHER POSSIBLY? >> WELL, YOU KNOW, WE’RE SEEING NOW A TOTAL OF TEN AIRSTRIKES SINCE JANUARY 11TH. THE ONE IN IRAQ AND THE NINE IN YEMEN. AMERICAN OFFICIALS SAYING THAT THEY ARE TRYING TO DEGRADE THE CAPABILITIES OF THE

MILITIAS IN IRAQ, AS WELL AS THE HOUTHIS IN YEMEN, AND THAT THEY’RE NOT LOOKING FOR CONFLICT. SO ULTIMATELY, IT’S ALWAYS IN THE COURT OF THOSE MILITIAS AND IN THESE BECAUSE THE UNITED STATES, THEY DON’T WANT THIS CONFLICT TO GROW IN THE CONFLICT. WE’RE TALKING ABOUT IS HAMAS IN ISRAEL AND GAZA.

AND THE GOAL IS TO CONTAIN ALL THAT VIOLENCE TAKING PLACE IN THESE OTHER COUNTRIES. ALL RIGHT, LUIS MARTINEZ. WE’LL CONTINUE TO FOLLOW IT ALL WITH YOU. APPRECIATE. ALSO, A RUSSIAN MILITARY PLANE CARRYING 74 PEOPLE, 65 OF THEM UKRAINIAN PRISONERS OF WAR HAS CRASHED NEAR THE RUSSIA UKRAINE BORDER.

IT’S BEING REPORTED ON RUSSIAN STATE MEDIA AND IT SAYS THAT THE CAPTURED SOLDIERS WERE BEING TAKEN TO A PRISONER EXCHANGE. AND A REGIONAL GOVERNOR SAYS THAT EVERYONE ON BOARD WAS KILLED. UKRAINE HAS NOT CONFIRMED THIS INCIDENT, NOR THAT A PRISONER EXCHANGE WAS EVEN PLANNED. WE’LL TRACK IT. >> COMING UP.

PROSECUTORS HAVE REVEALED NEVER BEFORE SEEN EVIDENCE IN THE CASE AGAINST MICHELLE TROCONIS. THE NEW VIDEOS, HOW IT ALL CONNECTS TO THE MURDER OF JENNIFER DULOS. WHEN WE RETURN, WE CAN CHANGE THE COURSE OF HISTORY WE WILL FIGHT AGAINST REPRESSION BY ANY MEANS NECESSARY. BROTHERS AND SISTERS. ARE YOU READY?

YOU MUST BE IN DANGER. THIS IS OUR REALITY NOW. TONIGHT, AFTER THE GOP FACE OFF, WHERE THE RACE FOR THE WHITE HOUSE STANDS. PLUS, THE WARS IN AND UKRAINE AND THE STRIKES AGAINST TUTSIS IN YEMEN. MORE AMERICANS TURN TO THE MOST WATCHED NEWSCAST ON TELEVISION WORLD TONIGHT WITH DAVID MUIR

FROM AMERICA’S NUMBER ONE NEWS COMPANY ON THE ABC NEWS APP. BREAKING NEWS, INCREDIBLE VIDEO FASTER, SMARTER AND CUSTOMIZABLE TO YOUR INTERESTS. IF YOU LOVE BEING IN THE KNOW, YOU’RE GOING TO LOVE THIS EXPERIENCE. THE NEW ABC NEWS APP, DOWNLOAD IT NOW. >> SO GLAD YOU’RE SWIMMING WITH US.

WELL, HE WAS CONVICTED FOR OPENING FIRE AT HIS HIGH SCHOOL, KILLING FOUR PEOPLE AND WOUNDING SEVERAL OTHERS. NOW THE MOTHER OF ETHAN CRUMBLY IS IN COURT FOR GIVING HER SON ACCESS TO THAT GUN. JENNIFER CRUMBLY NOW FACING FOUR COUNTS OF INVOLUNTARY MANSLAUGHTER. HER SON HAS SINCE BEEN SENTENCED TO LIFE IN PRISON

WITHOUT THE POSSIBILITY OF PAROLE. PROSECUTORS SAY HIS PARENTS DIDN’T TELL SCHOOL OFFICIALS ETHAN HAD ACCESS TO THAT GUN WHEN THEY WERE CALLED TO A SCHOOL MEETING JUST HOURS BEFORE THE SHOOTING. THE TRIAL IS THE FIRST TIME PARENTS HAVE BEEN CHARGED IN CONNECTION WITH A SCHOOL SHOOTING IN THE UNITED STATES.

OUR TREVOR AULT AND LEGAL CONTRIBUTOR BRIAN BUCKMIRE HAS BEEN FOLLOWING THE CASE FROM THE VERY BEGINNING. BRIAN, START WITH YOU. WHAT CAN WE EXPECT TO HAPPEN IN COURT TODAY? >> SO THERE WILL BE MORE JURY SELECTION FOR WHAT WE’RE SEEING IN PREVIOUS DAYS. THE DEFENSE AND PROSECUTION ARE FOCUSING ON ISSUES, GUN

RIGHTS, PARENTAL RESPONSIBILITY, WHAT YOU BELIEVE IN TERMS, OF WHAT A PARENT SHOULD DO IN TERMS OF KEEPING THAT GUN LOCKED AND SAFELY AND CLEARLY KNOW THAT THE SHOOTER IN THIS CASE HAD ACCESS TO A GUN. AND SO WHAT THE DEFENSE AND PROSECUTION ARE TRYING TO DO IS, TRY TO FIND AN

UNBIASED PERSON, NOT NECESSARILY SOMEONE WHO DOESN’T KNOW ABOUT THE CASE, BUT KNOWS A LOT ABOUT THE CASE. THE LAW WILL HOLD JUDGMENT UNTIL. THEY SEE ALL THE EVIDENCE IN THIS CASE. THEY’RE EXPECTING TO FIND A JURY BY THE END TODAY AND THEN POTENTIALLY START WHAT

I BELIEVE TO BE A 3 TO 4 WEEK TRIAL. AND THEN THE HUSBAND HAVING A TRIAL RIGHT AFTER. >> SO, TREVOR, AMONG THE EVIDENCE AGAINST THE PARENTS HERE ARE THESE MESSAGES THAT THE PARENTS ACTUALLY SENT THEIR SON ON THE DAY OF THE SHOOTING. EVEN THE THAT WE SAW. >> DON’T DO IT.

HOW COULD THOSE THE TRIAL HERE. >> YES. SO SOME CONTEXT FOR THAT TEXT MESSAGE, KYRA ACCORDING TO PROSECUTORS, IS THAT ONE OF THE SHOOTER’S PARENTS, AFTER THE SHOOTING HAD STARTED TO HAPPEN AND WORD WAS SPREADING THE COMMUNITY. ONE OF THOSE PARENTS LEARNED THAT A SHOOTING WAS HAPPENING AT THE SCHOOL.

>> THEY DIDN’T KNOW WHO WAS DOING IT, BUT IMMEDIATELY THEN, ACCORDING TO PROSECUTORS, TEXTED THEIR SON, DON’T DO IT, WHICH I BELIEVE PROSECUTORS ARE GOING TO USE AS EVIDENCE TO SHOW THAT THESE PARENTS HAD IT. >> SO IN THE FRONT OF THEIR MINDS THAT THEIR SON COULD BE CAPABLE OF DOING THIS,

THAT AS SOON AS HEARD A SHOOTING OCCURRED, THEY ASSUMED IT WAS THEIR SON, WHICH THEY, ACCORDING TO PROSECUTORS, IS PROOF THAT THEY KNEW THIS WAS A POSSIBILITY AND THEY DIDN’T DO ENOUGH OR ANYTHING TO STOP IT. THAT, OF COURSE IS GOING TO BE THE CRUX OF THIS ENTIRE ARGUMENT.

AS WE HAVE SAID, THIS IS THE FIRST TIME THAT PARENTS HAVE BEEN CHARGED IN THE CASE OF A SCHOOL SHOOTING. BASICALLY, WHAT PROSECUTORS HAVE SAID AND I WAS THERE IN THE AFTERMATH OF SHOOTING, I TALKED TO THE PROSECUTOR MYSELF. SHE SAID THAT SHE’S NOT TO SET A PRECEDENT HERE ABOUT,

YOU KNOW, ALL PARENTS NEED TO BE HELD RESPONSIBLE FOR THEIR CHILD’S BEHAVIOR. BUT THEY FELT THE PARENTS BEHAVIOR WAS SO EGREGIOUS HERE THAT IT WAS CRIMINAL IN NATURE KYRA. >> SO, BRIAN, OVER THE PAST 25 MONTHS, THE PARENTS HAD LARGELY ARGUED TOGETHER THROUGH COURT BATTLES AS THEY APPEALED

CHARGES ALL THE WAY TO THE STATE COURT. BUT LAST OCTOBER, THE MICHIGAN SUPREME COURT REFUSED TO HEAR APPEALS FROM THE CRUMBLES. >> WHY DO YOU THINK THAT IS? >> THE MICHIGAN SUPREME COURT GAVE US THIS THREE LINE PARAGRAPH BASICALLY SAYING THAT WHAT WAS DECIDED IN THEIR APPEALS COURT, THAT THE

LOWER COURT, JUST A LITTLE. >> THE MICHIGAN SUPREME COURT RULED STAY. THEY SAID THAT THE ISSUE PRESENT ARE NOT ONES THAT THEY BELIEVE SHOULD BE ADDRESSED. THERE ARE A NUMBER OF REASONS WHY STATE SUPREME COURT WOULD SAY THAT CONCEPT OF RIPENESS THAT IS NOT READY FOR THEM TO DECIDE.

BUT I THINK REGARDLESS OF THE PROXIMATE THINGS, THIS WILL BE A CASE THAT SETS A PRECEDENT AROUND THE COUNTRY. >> YEAH, I THINK IT WILL, TOO. AND WE FOLLOW IT CLOSELY. TREVOR BRYAN, THANK YOU BOTH SO MUCH. WELL, PROSECUTORS REVEALED NEVER BEFORE SEEN EVIDENCE IN THE CASE AGAINST MICHELLE TROCONIS.

SHE’S CONNECTICUT WOMAN ACCUSED OF HELPING HER LATE BOYFRIEND COVER UP THE MURDER OF HIS ESTRANGED WIFE, JENNIFER DULOS. NOW, PROSECUTORS SAY THAT VIDEOS AND OTHER EVIDENCE CONNECTS TROCONIS TO THE CRIME. THE DEFENSE THAT TROCONIS HAD NO IDEA WHAT HER BOYFRIEND WAS UP TO. HERE’S OUR ERIELLE RESHEF WITH MORE.

>> GOOD MORNING, YOUR HONOR. A JURY HEARING THE CASE AGAINST MICHELLE TROCONIS THE ACCOMPLICE AND GIRLFRIEND OF THE CONNECTICUT FATHER ACCUSED OF KILLING ESTRANGED WIFE, THE MOTHER OF THEIR FIVE CHILDREN. JENNIFER DULOS MISSING FOR FOUR YEARS BEFORE BEING DECLARED LEGALLY DEAD IN 2023. HER HUSBAND, FOTIS DULOS DYING

BY SUICIDE WHILE AWAITING TRIAL FOR HER DEATH. NOW TROCONIS FACING CHARGES INCLUDING CONSPIRACY TO COMMIT MURDER. PROSECUTORS ZEROING ON SURVEILLANCE VIDEOS SHOWING FOTIS ALLEGEDLY TRAVELING FROM HIS HOME TO HARTFORD IN HIS BLACK PICKUP TRUCK AFTER ESTRANGED WIFE DISAPPEARANCE, THROWING AWAY 30 BAGS OF ITEMS IN VARIOUS TRASH RECEPTACLES AROUND CITY.

ONE SHOT SHOWING A WOMAN BENDING OUT OF THAT TRUCK. >> PROSECUTORS SAY IT WAS TROCONIS. HER ATTORNEYS DENY HER COMPLICITY. SOMETHING CLEARLY WAS INVOLVED. BUT, YOU KNOW, THE BOTTOM LINE IS YOU GET TO SEE ANYTHING THAT SUGGESTS SHELTON KNEW ANYTHING ABOUT WHAT. >> THE SMARTEST TACTIC THAT THE

DEFENSE CAN TAKE IS TO ADMIT THAT SHE WAS IN THE CAR. >> IF SHE WAS IN THE CAR. THAT HER DNA IS GOING TO BE FOUND ON EVERYTHING. THEY DON’T HAVE TO EXPLAIN THAT PORTION OF THE EVIDENCE. THEY JUST HAVE TO DISPUTE NOW WHETHER OR NOT SHE WAS KNOWLEDGEABLE OF WHAT THESE

ITEMS IN COURT TUESDAY, JURORS SAYING ZIP TIES, GLOVES, CLOTHING WITH BLOODSTAINS PROSECUTORS SAY WERE PULLED FROM THOSE BINS BEFORE HER DEATH. JENNIFER? AND PHOTOS LOCKED IN A BITTER AND CUSTODY BATTLE. AND PROSECUTORS ALLEGE TROCONIS PLOTTED WITH HIM TO KILL JENNIFER, THEN COVER UP THE CRIME. THE FAMILY NANNY TAKING TO THE

STAND, DESCRIBING THE DAY SHE JENNIFER MISSING. >> THE SECOND I CALLED JENNIFER . IT’S LIKE MY STOMACH JUST SANK BECAUSE SHE NEVER NOT ANSWER HER PHONE. >> MY THANKS TO ERIELLE RESHEF FOR THAT. WEL FOLLOW IT. ALSO COMING UP, HE GOT AWAY WITH PRETENDING TO BE A POLICE OFFICER FOR THREE YEARS.

WELL, IT’S A SNUB THAT JUST KEEPS ON SNUBBING. AND NOW THE STARS ARE WEIGHING IN ON THE SWIRLING CONTROVERSY FOLLOWING THAT OSCAR DISS INVOLVING BARBIE. DESPITE THE FILMS YEAR, GRETA GERWIG WAS NOT NOMINATED IN THE DIRECTOR CATEGORY AND MARGOT ROBBIE GOT NO NOMINATION FOR LEAD. SO NOMINATED COSTARS

RYAN GOSLING, AMERICA FERRERA ARE NOW SPEAKING OUT. HERE’S OUR LARA SPENCER CARLOS. IN THE CONFUSION IN HOLLYWOOD OVER A MAJOR OSCAR SNUB. >> I MEAN, HI, BARBIE. >> BARBIE SCORING EIGHT NOMINATIONS. AND IT TURNS, IN FACT, THAT NOT ONLY ARE YOU DOING EVERYTHING WRONG, BUT ALSO EVERYTHING IS YOUR FAULT, INCLUDING BEST

SUPPORTING ACTRESS FOR AMERICA FERRERA AND SUPPORTING ACTOR RYAN AND MOVIE ALSO GETTING A BEST PICTURE NOD, BUT LEFT OUT THE BILLION DOLLAR BLOCKBUSTER STAR MARGOT ROBBIE ,BEST ACTRESS AND GRETA GERWIG FOR DIRECTING. >> I THINK THAT’S THE NAME THAT EVERYONE HAS ON THEIR LIVES IS NOT BARBIE, IT’S GRETA GERWIG.

GRETA DID GET NOMINATED ADAPTED SCREENPLAY, BUT SHE WAS SNUBBED AND BEST DIRECTOR, WHICH MANY PEOPLE, INCLUDING MYSELF, THOUGHT THAT SHE WAS GOING TO BE A IN FOR HER. >> FANS ARE UPSET. HOW DOES CAN GET OSCAR NOMINATION FOR BARBIE BUT BARBIE DOESN’T GET AN OSCAR NOMINATION FOR. >> YOU SCRIPTED THIS SCENARIO

NO ONE WOULD EVER BELIEVE YOU. AND GOSLING RELEASING A STATEMENT SAYING, QUOTE, THERE IS NO KEN WITHOUT BARBIE AND THERE IS NO “BARBIE” MOVIE WITHOUT GRETA GERWIG AND MARGOT ROBBIE. TO SAY THAT I’M DISAPPOINTED DID THAT THEY ARE NOT NOMINATED IN THEIR RESPECTIVE CATEGORIES WOULD BE AN UNDERSTATEMENT IS LITERALLY IMPOSSIBLE TO BE

A WOMAN. THE NOMINATIONS FOR EACH CATEGORY, THOUGH, DETERMINED BY THOSE WHO ARE MEMBERS OF IT. MANY ACTORS VOTE FOR ACTORS AND DIRECTORS, DETERMINE WHO GETS THE DIRECTING NODS. THTH THE ACTORS BRANCH IN IT. >> IT DOES LEAN MUCH MORE MALE AND, AN OLDER GROUP OF VOTERS. >> BUT EXPERTS SAY.

THE SNUB COULD END UP PLAYING TO BARBIE’S ADVANTAGE WHEN IT COMES TO PICTURE. >> ANYTHING CAN HAPPEN. ATTITUDES CAN CHANGE. PEOPLE CAN, YOU KNOW, RALLY BEHIND A FILM IF THEY THINK IT’S KIND OF LAGGING BEHIND OTHERS. SO THIS DEFINITELY SOMETHING THAT THE AWARD STRATEGISTS BEHIND BARBIE OR ANY OTHER

FILMS FOR THAT MATTER, WILL PROBABLY CONSIDER AND TRY TO TAKE ADVANTAGE OF. AND OUR THANKS TO LARA SPENCER FOR THAT. >> THANKS FOR SHARING WITH US. I’M KYRA PHILLIPS. THE NEWS NEVER STOPS. WE GOT A LOT MORE ON THE OTHER SIDE. STAY WITH US. >> TONIGHT, AFTER THE GOP OFF

WHERE THE RACE FOR THE WHITE HOUSE STANDS. PLUS, THE WARS IN ISRAEL AND UKRAINE AND THE STRIKES AGAINST HOUTHIS IN YEMEN. AMERICANS TURN TO THE MOST WATCHED NEWSCAST ON TELEVISION WORLD TONIGHT WITH DAVID MUIR AND DAVID LEE SAFELY. >> THERE’S A YOUNG GIRL RUNNING AROUND HERE SCREAMING AND THERE’S SOME GUY TRYING TO.

THE 911 CALL IS A CRUCIAL PIECE OF EVIDENCE. UNRAVELING THE MYSTERY. COULD FOUR MURDERS ON LONG ISLAND BE THE WORK OF A SERIAL KILLER? THEY START, FIND MORE BODIES. SUDDENLY IT’S AN ARM OR A LEG. WHAT IS GOING ON HERE? I NEVER ONCE FEARED FOR MY LIFE WHEN I MET HIM.

>> IT WAS THE ONLY TIME I STARED TRUTH IN MY EYES. DON’T. >> IN PREVIEWS 13 ON ABC. >> LOOK UP. THERE’S GOT TO BE SOMETHING OUT THERE. YOU’RE SHOCKED. SCARED TO DEATH. OH, WOW. MY NAME IS KAT PATTERSON, AND I AM AN ALIEN INSECT. >> EXTRATERRESTRIAL INTELLIGENCE. ALIENS.

WE ARE GETTING CLOSER TO. THE GRAVEL ROAD THAT IS SUPPOSED TO LEAD US TO AREA 51. ARE WE ALONE? IT’S ABOUT TIME. NOW FIND OUT THE ANSWER. >> ALIENS. ARE WE ALONE? NOW STREAMING ON HULU FROM AMERICA’S NUMBER ONE SOURCE BECOMES THE ONLY ABC NEWS APP. BREAKING NEWS, INCREDIBLE VIDEO.

FASTER, SMARTER, AND IT CAN CUSTOMIZE TO YOU AND YOUR INTERESTS IF YOU’VE BEEN IN THE KNOW. YOU’RE GOING TO LOVE THIS EXPERIENCE. ALL THE LESSONS OF THAT EXPERIENCE. THE ALL-NEW ABC NEWS APP DOWNLOADED NOW. >> I’M AARON KATERSKY IN WORCESTER MASSACHUSETTS. WHEREVER THE STORY IS, WE’LL TAKE YOU THERE.

YOU’RE STREAMING ABC NEWS LIVE TODAY ON ABC NEWS LIVE GETTING GRILLED ON THE FAA GROUNDING CEO ON THE HILL AS SENATORS DEMAND ANSWERS ABOUT SAFETY INSPECTIONS AFTER THE MIDAIR BLOW OUT ON A NEW ALASKA AIRLINES JET RESULTING IN THE GROUNDED MAX NINE AIRPLANES. TRUMP MAY HAVE BEAT NIKKI

HALEY, BUT SHE VOWS TO STAY IN THE FIGHT. THE FORMER PRESIDENT DOUBLING DOWN ON HIS ATTACKS WHILE THE FORMER SOUTH CAROLINA GOVERNOR, HER STATE, WILL PROTECT HER. THE STATE OF THE RACE STRAIGHT AHEAD. 35 MILLION AMERICANS UNDER ALERT FOR EXTREME WEATHER. WELL 14 STATES FROM TEXAS TO THE NORTHEAST ON ALERT FOR

HEAVY RAIN AND FLOODING. YOUR LIVE FORECAST THIS HOUR. GOOD AFTERNOON, EVERYONE. I’M KYRA PHILLIPS. WE DO START WITH THE CEO OF BOEING UNDER AND FACING LAWMAKERS ON CAPITOL HILL RIGHT NOW. THE MEETING COMES AMID GROWING SCRUTINY AFTER A SERIES OF INCIDENTS INVOLVING BOEING JETS, INCLUDING THAT MIDAIR DOOR BLOWOUT ON ALASKA AIRLINES

,737 MAX NINE EARLIER THIS MONTH. THE FAA IS ALSO INVESTIGATING BOEING PLANE INCIDENT IN ATLANTA THIS PAST WEEKEND WHERE A TIRE ACTUALLY FELL OFF A DELTA FLIGHT JUST BEFORE TAKEOFF. LEADING US OFF THIS HOUR. OUR TRANSPORTATION CORRESPONDENT, GIO BENITEZ. SO, GIO IS CALHOUN. TELL US EXACTLY WHO IS MEETING

WITH TODAY NOW AND WHAT ARE THOSE LAWMAKERS HOPING TO SPECIFICALLY LEARN FROM HIM? YEAH, KYRA. SO BASICALLY HE THE DAY MEETING WITH SENATORS WARNER OR SENATOR CANTWELL AND ALSO SENATOR SULLIVAN OF THAT OF ALASKA. OBVIOUSLY ALASKA AT THE FOREFRONT HERE BECAUSE WE’RE TALKING ABOUT ALASKA AIRLINES.

AND SO THAT’S WHAT HE WAS SO CONCERNED ABOUT WHEN HE’S TALKING ABOUT THIS IS SAYING 20% OF THE ALASKA FLEET IS BASICALLY OUT, THE MAX NINE BEING GROUNDED. AND SO HE WANTS TO MAKE SURE THAT PEOPLE ARE ABLE TO GET TO AND FROM ALASKA VERY EASILY. AND HE DID SAY THAT THIS WOULD

BE SOMETHING THAT WE’RE TALKING ABOUT DAYS OR WEEKS, NOT MONTHS, AT LEAST. THAT IS THE HOPE OF DAVE CALHOUN. BUT NO DOUBT ABOUT IT, FACING TOUGH QUESTIONS. EACH OF THESE MEETINGS HAS LASTED WELL OVER AN HOUR, TO BE HONEST WITH YOU. SO CLEARLY, LOT OF QUESTIONS ARE BEING ASKED OF DAVE CALHOUN

,AND WE’RE HOPING FOR YOU TO CATCH UP WITH THEM, TOO, AT SOME TODAY AND BRING IT TO US AS SOON AS IT HAPPENS. YOU KNOW, SINCE THE ALASKA AIRLINES INCIDENT, BOINGBOING SAYS THAT THEY GROUNDED AND YOU REPORTED ON ALL THE MAX NINE PLANES AND THEY’RE SUPPOSED TO BE CONDUCTING INSPECTIONS. RIGHT.

DO WE KNOW ANYTHING ABOUT WHAT FOUND HOW IT’S GOING? SO, CAROL, THAT’S A GREAT BECAUSE THE TRUTH OF THE MATTER IS THE AIRLINES DO NOT HAVE INSTRUCTIONS FOR THE INSPECTIONS JUST YET. AND SO THE AIRLINES CAN’T GO AHEAD AND DO THE KIND OF INSPECTION THE FAA NEEDS TO DO BECAUSE THEY STILL

HAVEN’T RECEIVED THOSE INSTRUCTIONS FROM BOEING AND THE FAA. THEY’VE DONE THEIR OWN SORT OF INSPECTIONS. THEY’VE SEEN THAT THEY DO, IN FACT, HAVE SOME LOOSE BOLTS. AND THAT’S BEEN AN ISSUE AND IS VERY CONCERNING. IN FACT, THE CEO OF ALASKA AIRLINES HAS SAID THEY FOUND MANY LOOSE BOLTS IN THEIR OWN INSPECTIONS.

BUT BEFORE THESE GET BACK IN THE AIR. THEY HAVE TO GET THOSE INSTRUCTIONS FROM BOEING, THE FAA, AND THEN START THOSE OFFICIAL INSPECTIONS. REALLY NO WORD YET ON HOW LONG THAT’S GOING TO TAKE. ALL WE’RE STANDING BY. I LOOK FORWARD TO TALKING TO YOU AGAIN. APPRECIATE IT.

SO IT’S A DOUBLE DIGIT VICTORY FOR DONALD TRUMP, BUT NIKKI HALEY REFUSES TO GIVE UP AFTER YESTERDAY’S NEW HAMPSHIRE PRIMARY, EVEN THOUGH THIS IS THE FORMER PRESIDENT’S SECOND MAJOR WIN IN HIS BID TO BE THE GOP. THE FORMER SOUTH CAROLINA GOVERNOR SAYS SHE’S VOWING TO FIGHT NOW TAKING THE RACE

TO HER HOME STATE. SOUTH CAROLINA PRIMARY EXACTLY ONE MONTH AWAY NOW. ZOHREEN SHAH IS ON THE TRAIL THERE IN NEW HAMPSHIRE, JOINS ONCE AGAIN. SO ZARIAN TRUMP SAYS LAST NIGHT’S WIN IS JUST SOLIDIFY SHOWING HIS NOMINATION. BUT EXIT POLLS ARE SIGNALING IT’S NOT ALL SUNSHINE. LET’S TALK ABOUT LAST NIGHT’S

RESULTS AND WHAT THEY ACTUALLY DO. TELL US DO. WE HAVE TO TALK ABOUT SUNSHINE ,THOUGH, KYRA. SUNSHINE, FINALLY, WE’RE REPORTERS, RIGHT? WE’RE HEADING TO SOUTH CAROLINA . BUT LOOK, TRUMP, WE LOST INDEPENDENT VOTERS BY 24 POINTS. ANY POLITICAL EXPERT WILL TELL YOU THAT IS VERY WEAK GOING INTO A GENERAL ELECTION, EVEN

WITH ALL OF THE LEGAL WOES THAT APPEARED TO BE CAMPAIGN VICTORIES FOR HIM, COURSE, HE WON BY DOUBLE DIGITS. HE’S LEADING BY AN INCREDIBLE AMOUNT IN HIS OWN HOME STATE. SO ALL EYES WILL BE ON HER THESE NEXT FEW DAYS, THESE NEXT FEW WEEKS TO SEE IF THAT POLLING CHANGES AND THEN

IF IT DOESN’T AND WHAT SHE DOES NEXT. >> SO NIKKI HALEY WAS WAS REALLY HOPING TO BE ENDORSED BY TIM SCOTT, WHO SHE APPOINTED TO THE SENATE WHEN SHE WAS GOVERNOR. AS WE KNOW, HE ULTIMATELY ENDORSED TRUMP AFTER HE SUSPENDED HIS OWN PRESIDENTIAL BID IN NOVEMBER. LET’S JUST TALK ABOUT THE

SIGNIFICANCE THIS, BECAUSE YOU REALLY DID LOOK LIKE HE WAS AUDITIONING FOR A VICE PRESIDENTIAL ROLE. >> BUT AT THE SAME TIME, YOU KNOW, WHERE WAS THE LOYALTY ? NIKKI HALEY? >> I MEAN, LOOK, IT FEELS LIKE EVERYONE’S AUDITIONING FOR A VICE PRESIDENTIAL ROLE RIGHT NOW, EVEN THOUGH WE DON’T

HAVE A FINAL NOMINEE RIGHT. BUT YOU’RE EXACTLY RIGHT. NIKKI HALEY IS THE ONE WHO GAVE TIM SCOTT A POLITICAL YEARS AGO WHEN SHE WAS GOVERNOR. SHE APPOINTED HIM TO SENATOR AND HE’S USING THAT POLITICAL POWER FOR HER ARCH RIVAL IN RACE. THAT HAS GOT TO BE HURTFUL ON SOME LEVELS.

SHE HAS ALWAYS MADE IT VERY CLEAR THAT SHE DOESN’T TAKE THINGS PERSONALLY. AND OF COURSE, IT’S POLITICS KYRA. OH, YEAH, PERFECTLY SAID. YOU ALL. WELL, MILLIONS OF AMERICANS ARE ON ALERT AND IN THE PATH OF EXTREME WEATHER RIGHT NOW. FLOOD RAVAGED SAN DIEGO STILL PICKING THE PIECES FROM DAYS OF TORRENTIAL RAIN.

THE NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE CONFIRMING THAT IT HAD ITS FOURTH WEATHER STAY ON RECORD THIS WEEK. AND THE MAYOR THERE IN SAN DIEGO SAYING IT’S GOING TO TAKE MONTHS TO CLEAN UP. THEN THERE’S HEAVY RAIN SLAMMING PARTS OF TEXAS. FLOOD WARNINGS ARE IN EFFECT IN THE EASTERN PART OF THAT.

EXTREME WEATHER COULD ALSO BRING DAMAGING WINDS AND POSSIBLE TORNADOES TO THE SOUTH. OUR SOMARA THEODORE IS TRACKING IT ALL FOR US. >> TAKE IT AWAY. ALL RIGHT. SO MANY THINGS TO GET THROUGH HERE. SO START WITH THE GULF OF MEXICO. A LOT OF THOSE STATES THERE FROM TEXAS TO LOUISIANA INTO GEORGIA, FLORIDA.

HERE’S THE DEAL. WE THIS RAIN, IT’S A MULTI-DAY RAIN EVENT. AND WHAT WE’RE IN FOR IS 3 TO 8 INCHES OF RAIN THROUGH PARTS OF ALEXANDRIA. JACKSON, PARTS OF HOUSTON. AND THEN THE WIDER SCOPE OF IT FROM HOUSTON, CORPUS CHRISTI, ALL THE WAY UP TO ATLANTA, KNOXVILLE. WE COULD SEE SOME THUNDERSTORMS

THAT BRING THE THREAT FOR TORNADOES, DAMAGING WINDS. ATLANTA TOMORROW, THAT’S WHEN YOU WILL SEE THE HEAVIEST OF THE RAIN. WE COULD SEE UP TO FIVE INCHES OF RAIN LOCALLY IN SOME SPOTS THERE. IN FACT, HERE’S A LOOK AT THE RAIN FORECAST SO YOU CAN SEE WHERE THE BULL’S EYE

ARE HITTING OVER THE NEXT COUPLE OF. TONS OF RAIN DOWN IN LOUISIANA. THEY NEED IT BUT IT’S COMING DOWN REALLY FAST AND THAT POSES THE RISK FOR FLASH FLOODING. >> ALSO, SOME LIGHTER SHOWERS THE FARTHER NORTH YOU HEAD. OKAY, SO WHAT ABOUT NORTHERN TIER OF THIS STORM SYSTEM, RIGHT.

>> BECAUSE THAT’S THE SOUTHERN PORTION OF IT. BUT WHEN SEE THE NORTHERN PART OF THE STORM, IT’S ACTUALLY BEEN BRINGING WINTRY WEATHER TO PARTS THE NORTHEAST. A LITTLE BIT OF ICE REMAINING TONIGHT IN PARTS OF NEW ENGLAND. BUT FOR MOST PART, AREAS THAT HAVE SEEN SNOW WILL NOW SEE THAT TRANSITION OF RAIN

AS THAT WARMER WEATHER STARTS TO WORK ITS WAY FARTHER NORTH AND THAT RAIN IN ON THE WEST COAST, WE ARE LOOKING AT ANOTHER SYSTEM THAT’S BRINGING ANYWHERE 3 TO 5 INCHES FROM SEATTLE DOWN TO EUREKA. BUT WANT TO PUT THIS ON YOUR RADAR, THE BIGGER PICTURE HERE. NOTICE THIS TIME STAMP, FRIDAY,

JANUARY 26. WHAT WE’RE LOOKING AT IS A VERY ACTIVE JET STREAM FROM JAPAN TO THE UNITED STATES OF AMERICA. >> THIS BY FEBRUARY 2ND, NEXT WEEK, FRIDAY IS SETTING UP OR POSTURING BE A VERY SIGNIFICANT EVENT FOR THE WEST COAST. THIS COULD BE MAJOR FLOODING FOR PARTS OF CALIFORNIA

THAT HAVE ALREADY A TON OF RAIN. SO THIS IS SOMETHING TO LOOK OUT FOR NEXT WEEK. AND WE’VE GOT ALL THE WEATHER WE’RE GETTING THROUGH NOW. WE WILL HAVE A LITTLE TIME FOR THIS, KYRA. I JUST WANT TO PUT THIS ON ON EVERYONE’S SCOPE AS. WARM UP IS ON THE WAY.

SO IF YOU HAVE BEEN FRIGID AND COLD, WE’RE NOW GOING TO BE A BIT ABOVE AVERAGE IN A LOT OF MAJOR CITIES. >> SOME ARE THERE. ALWAYS MORE TIME FOR YOU. THANK YOU VERY MUCH. >> WELL, THE U.S. MILITARY LAUNCHING ANOTHER FIERCE ROUND OF ATTACKS ON IRAN, MILITIA

GROUPS, THIS TIME IN IRAQ. SECRETARY OF DEFENSE LLOYD AUSTIN CALLING THE STRIKES A DIRECT RESPONSE. THE IRANIAN SPONSORED ATTACKS AGAINST, U.S. FORCES IN THAT REGION. CENTCOM SAYING THAT TUESDAY STRIKES THREE SITES IN IRAQ, INCLUDING A WEAPONS STORAGE FACILITY, HOUSING, ARMED DRONES AND MISSILES, WHILE ALSO BLAMING THE MILITIA GROUPS FOR

THE ATTACKS ON AMERICAN TROOPS LIVING ON THE AL-ASAD AIR BASE. IT’S JUST A SHORT TIME AGO THAT CENTCOM ALSO CONFIRMING THESE FIRED THREE MISSILES AT U.S. COMMERCIAL SHIPS IN THE GULF OF ADEN. A NAVY DESTROYER, THE USS GRAVELY SHOOTING DOWN TWO OF THOSE MISSILES. LET’S BRING IN OUR REENA ROY,

WHO’S BEEN TRACKING ALL FOR US. SERENA, WE’RE GETTING THIS NEW BATTLE DAMAGE ASSESSMENT FROM A U.S. DEFENSE OFFICIAL THAT SAYS THE STRIKES ACTUALLY YIELDED EFFECTIVE RESULTS. >> SO WHAT DO YOU KNOW ABOUT THIS REPORT? WELL, CAROL, WE JUST HEARD FROM THAT OFFICIAL WITHIN THIS LAST HOUR WHO SAYS THE U.S. SAW

EFFECTIVE RESULTS ON ALL THREE TARGETS, THAT TWO HEADQUARTERS BUILDINGS AND, AN INTELLIGENCE FACILITY, WERE DESTROYED AND THAT INITIAL REPORTS INDICATE THAT UP TO SEVEN IRAN BACKED MILITIA MEMBERS WERE KILLED IN THE. AND AN IRAQI SECURITY SOURCE ALSO TELLS ABC THAT ONE LOCATION WAS THE HEADQUARTERS OF ISLAMIC RESISTANCE IN IRAQ, SAYING

THAT THERE WERE A NUMBER OF INJURIES. ALL RIGHT. SO CENTCOM IS ALSO ANNOUNCING THAT THIS AIRSTRIKE IN YEMEN TARGETED TO HOUTHI ANTI-SHIP MISSILES WERE SOMEWHAT SUCCESSFUL. >> WHAT DO YOU KNOW ABOUT THAT? RIGHT. WELL, CENTCOM SAYS THOSE TWO ANTI-SHIP MISSILES WERE AIMED INTO THE SOUTHERN RED SEA, PREPARED TO LAUNCH

AND POSE AN IMMINENT THREAT TO MERCHANT VESSELS. AND THE U.S. NAVY SHIPS IN THE REGION, U.S. FORCES AND STRIKING AND DESTROYING THE MISSILES, SELF-DEFENSE. AND JUST TODAY, AS YOU MENTIONED, THERE WAS A HOUTHI MISSILE ATTACK ON A U.S. COMMERCIAL VESSEL IN THE GULF OF ADEN, WHERE U.S. NAVY DESTROYER WAS SHOT DOWN.

>> TWO INCOMING MISSILES. >> ALL RIGHT. AND LET’S TALK ABOUT HOW WORRIED U.S. OFFICIALS ARE ABOUT THIS CONFLICT GROWING AND ESCALATING. COULD THIS MOVE TO OTHER TARGETS SOON? WELL, LOOK, WE KNOW THAT U.S. HAVE BEEN RAMPING UP EVERY DAY. AND THIS IS THE 10TH U.S. MILITARY AIRSTRIKE IN THE

REGION SINCE JANUARY 11. BUT DEFENSE SECRETARY LLOYD AUSTIN, HE SAYS THE U.S. IS NOT LOOKING TO ESCALATE CONFLICT IN THE REGION. HE DID ADD, THOUGH, THAT THEY ARE FULLY PREPARED, TAKE FURTHER MEASURES TO PROTECT AMERICANS AS WELL AS AMERICAN FACILITIES KYRA. >> ALL RIGHT, REENA ROY APPRECIATE THE UPDATE.

ALSO, RUSSIA’S MINISTER, RATHER, IS SAYING THAT A RUSSIAN MILITARY PLANE CARRYING 74 PEOPLE, 65 OF THEM UKRAINIAN PRISONERS OF WAR, HAS CRASHED NEAR THE RUSSIA UKRAINE BORDER. RUSSIAN STATE MEDIA IS REPORTING THAT THE CAPTURED SOLDIERS WERE BEING TAKEN TO A PRISONER EXCHANGE AND A REGIONAL GOVERNOR SAYS THAT EVERYONE ON BOARD WAS

KILLED. BUT UKRAINIAN MILITARY INTELLIGENCE IS SUGGESTING IT WAS TRICKED INTO SHOOTING DOWN THE RUSSIAN, BUT DOES NOT CONFIRM THAT A PRISONER EXCHANGE WAS SUPPOSED TO TAKE PLACE. >> COMING UP, LAWSUITS CLAIMED ITS BABY POWDER CAUSE CANCER. UP NEXT, JOHNSON JOHNSON STRIKES, A DEAL OVER ALL THE CLAIMS WHENEVER NEWS WE

ARE HERE IN ISRAEL, A NATION AT WAR AFTER. >> THAT BRUTAL SURPRISE ATTACK BY HAMAS. ON THE GROUND IN UKRAINE REPORTING LEWISTON, MAINE, THE SCENE OF A HORRIFIC MASS SHOOTING. >> ABC NEWS LIVE RIGHT THERE DAY FROM THE SCENE OF THAT DEADLY MISSILE STRIKE. THE NEED FOR. REPORTING FROM THE EARTHQUAKE

ABC NEWS LIVE, ABC NEWS LIVE STREAMING FREE AMERICA’S NUMBER ONE STREAMING NEWS WE CAN CHANGE THE COURSE OF HISTORY IN THE FIGHT AGAINST REPRESSION BY ANY MEANS NECESSARY. BROTHERS AND SISTERS, ARE YOU READY? WE MUST BE A LITTLE BETTER. THIS IS REALITY NOW I WILL TALK POLITICS. THEY’RE EXPECTING US.

IT’S OUR SECRET WORLD WE HAVE. DO YOU THINK? WE’RE GOING TO BE SAFE. I DON’T KNOW. THIS IS ONE PERSON INSIDE OUT AND IS A SOURCE OF HUMAN BLOOD. THESE ARE ASSASSINATIONS THAT PEOPLE ARE GOING TO BE MURDERED. THERE’S REALLY NO TELLING WHAT SOME OF THEM WILL DO.

IT’S HAPPENING EVERYWHERE ANYWHERE. WOW. IN THE COURTS, LIKE ONE OF THE BIGGEST ONLINE ROCK FACES ON THE PLANET. NOW I’M STARTING TO GET VERY EXCITED. IF WE MANAGE TO CLIMB IN RECORD, LIKE IT’LL BE THE BIGGEST VERSUS THAT WE’VE EVER DONE. ULTIMATELY, WHAT’S AT STAKE WITH CLIMATE?

THIS IS NOT WHAT I SIGNED UP FOR. IT IS ALWAYS YOUR LIFE. >> FRIDAY NIGHT THERE ARE MILLIONS OF PEOPLE FOLLOWING ON SOCIAL MEDIA. YET YOU WERE CONVICTED, HELPING TO KILL YOUR MOM. HER ENTIRE LIFE HAD BEEN A LIE. THE FEEDING TUBE, THE SCARS, SO MANY MEDICATIONS WAS A BRUTAL DEATH.

14 STAB WOUNDS TO THE BACK. WHAT WERE GYPSY REVEAL? WHY REVEAL IT NOW? WHY DIDN’T YOU SAY ANYTHING ABOUT IT IN THE 2020 DEBORAH ROBERTS INTERVIEW ? WOW. WOW. FRIDAY NIGHT AT NINE AND CENTRAL ON ABC. >> CHINA’S JOHNSON SAYS IT’S REACHED A TENTATIVE SETTLEMENT OVER CLAIMS IT

MISLED CONSUMERS ABOUT THE SAFETY OF ITS BABY POWDER. THE COMPANY’S CFO SAYING IT WILL PAY $700 MILLION IN CLAIMS FROM 42 STATES. >> OUR ALEXIS CHRISTOFOROUS HAS BEEN FOLLOWING THIS FOR. >> SO WHAT MORE DO WE KNOW ABOUT THE SETTLEMENT, ALEXIS AND KIRA? WE KNOW THAT YOU MENTIONED THAT $700 MILLION PAYOUT

TO SETTLE THOSE CLAIMS, 42 STATES. BUT WHAT THAT DOES NOT INCLUDE IS ANY LITIGATION. >> TENS OF THOUSANDS OF CONSUMER LAWSUITS BROUGHT ABOUT JOHNSON AND JOHNSON, MOSTLY FROM WOMEN WHO CLAIM THAT TALC POWDER, WHICH IS USED IN ONE OF ITS BEST KNOWN AND BEST SELLING PRODUCTS, CAUSED THEIR CANCERS,

SPECIFICALLY OVARIAN CANCER. THERE ARE 52,000 SUCH LAWSUITS NOW OUT THERE. OF THEM ARE GOING TO BE GOING TO TRIAL LATER THIS YEAR. AND AGAIN, THAT SETTLEMENT OF $700 MILLION IS SEPARATE FROM THESE PERSONAL INJURY LAWSUITS. SO THERE’S STILL A LOT OF LIABILITY THERE THAT JNJ IS OPENING ITSELF UP TO.

IT DID TRY ON TWO SEPARATE OCCASIONS TO SETTLE THOSE PERSONAL INJURY LAWSUITS THROUGH BANKRUPTCY COURT FILINGS. IN FACT, IT HAD EVEN OFFERED $9 BILLION TO SETTLE THOSE LAWSUITS. >> BUT A BANKRUPTCY JUDGE DENIED THAT. >> SO THEN WHAT IS JOHNSON JOHNSON SAYING ABOUT ALL OF THIS BESIDES THAT, THEY’RE GOING TO PAY THESE

CLAIMS? >> RIGHT. WELL, THE CFO SAID THAT THIS $700 MILLION PAYOUT IS PART OF WHAT’S GOING TO HELP PUT THIS BEHIND THIS COMPANY. BUT BY NO MEANS, KYRA, IS THE LITIGATION OVER. IT HAS LONG MAINTAINED, THOUGH, THAT ITS TALCUM POWDER PRODUCTS ARE SAFE AND DO NOT CAUSE CANCER.

SO THE COMPANY DID PULL ITS TALC POWDERS OFF THE MARKET YOU MIGHT REMEMBER, IN CANADA AND THE U.S. BACK IN 2020. IT NOW SELLS A TALCUM POWDER OR A POWDER, RATHER, THAT IS NOT TALC BASED, BUT IS THAT IS CORNSTARCH BASED. SO THAT’S WHAT’S ON THE MARKET RIGHT NOW.

YOU WON’T FIND THOSE TALC BASED POWDERS SOLD BY JNJ ANYMORE. >> ALL RIGHT, ALEXIS APPRECIATE THE UPDATE. SURE. AND A NEW YORK MAN NOW FOUND GUILTY OF MURDER FOR SHOOTING A WOMAN WHO MISTAKENLY ENTERED HIS DRIVEWAY. KEVIN MONAHAN WAS CHARGED IN THE DEATH OF 20 YEAR OLD KAITLYN GILLIS LAST YEAR AND

HER STORY TOLD. I’M A BEAUTIFUL PERSON. SHE WAS HOW MANY PEOPLE LOVED HER. >> LAST YEAR, TEN-YEAR-OLD KAITLYN GILLIS WAS WITH HER FRIENDS, DRIVING IN TWO CARS IN A MOTORCYCLE LOOKING FOR ANOTHER FRIEND’S HOUSE. >> LATE AT NIGHT IN RURAL UPSTATE NEW YORK. SHE WAS THE PASSENGER IN ONE

OF THE CARS THAT MISTAKENLY DROVE UP KEVIN MONAHAN’S DRIVEWAY. HIS LAWYER SAYS MONAHAN FELT THREATENED BY THE GROUP AND FIRED A WARNING SHOT IN THE AIR, BUT THEN STUMBLED AND TRIPPED ACCIDENTALLY. >> ANOTHER ROUND THAT HIT GILLIS. THE PHOTO FROM THE PROSECUTION FROM THE POLICE WASN’T CLEAR ENOUGH TO SHOW THE AREA

WHERE HE STUMBLED AND FELL. >> BUT, YOU KNOW, THIS CAN HAPPEN. BUT TOOK THE JURY LESS THAN 2 HOURS TO FIND MONAHAN AND GUILTY OF SECOND DEGREE MURDER, RECKLESS ENDANGERMENT AND TAMPERING WITH PHYSICAL EVIDENCE.

NEW EXCLUSIVES KEEP SWIMMING WITH ABC NEWS LIVES TODAY ON ABC NEWS LIVE. GETTING GRILLED ON THE FAA GROUNDING BOEING CEO THE HILL AS SENATORS DEMAND ANSWERS ABOUT SAFETY INSPECTIONS AFTER THE MIDAIR BLOWOUT ON A NEW ALASKA AIRLINES JET RESULTING THE GROUNDED MAX NINE AIRPLANES. DONALD TRUMP MAY BEAT NIKKI

HALEY, BUT SHE VOWS TO STAY IN THE FIGHT. THE FORMER PRESIDENT DOUBLING DOWN ON HIS ATTACKS WHILE THE FORMER SOUTH CAROLINA GOVERNOR SAYS HER STATE WILL PROTECT HER STATE OF THE RACE. STRAIGHT AHEAD, AN WEATHER ACROSS THE COUNTRY. 17 STATES NOW UNDER FLOOD. YOUR LIVE FORECAST THIS HOUR. AND GOOD AFTERNOON, EVERYONE.

I’M KYRA PHILLIPS. WE DO BEGIN WITH THE CEO OF BOEING UNDER FIRE NOW FACING LAWMAKERS ON CAPITOL HILL. THE MEETING AMID GROWING SCRUTINY AFTER A SERIES OF INCIDENTS INVOLVING. BOEING JETS, INCLUDING THAT MIDAIR DOOR BLOWOUT ON AN ALASKA 7.37 MAX NINE EARLIER THIS MONTH. THE FAA IS INVESTIGATING A BOEING PLANE INCIDENT

IN ATLANTA THIS PAST WEEKEND WHERE A TIRE ACTUALLY FELL OFF A DELTA FLIGHT JUST TAKEOFF. LEE IS OFF THIS HOUR. OUR TRANSPORTATION REPORTER, ALSO OUR JAY O’BRIEN, WHO’S FOLLOWING EVERYTHING HAPPENING THERE ON THE HILL AS WELL. SO, SAM, LET’S START WITH YOU. LET’S TALK ABOUT BOEING, DAVE CALHOUN.

WHAT IS HE HAD TO SAY? WHAT IS HE SAID SO FAR? WELL, KIRAN, DAVE CALHOUN SHOWED UP THIS MORNING. HE ACTUALLY REQUESTED THIS MEETING WITH LAWMAKERS. YOU CAN IMAGINE HE IS UNDER EXTREME PRESSURE, NOT ONLY FROM THE PRIVATE SECTOR, BUT ALSO FEDERAL OFFICIALS AND LAWMAKERS HERE ON CAPITOL HILL.

AND HE IS HERE THIS MORNING ON DAMAGE CONTROL. HE SPOKE BRIEFLY BEFORE HE WENT INTO A MEETING WITH SENATORS. LET’S LISTEN. >> WE SAY, PLEASE, WE DON’T LET THEIR PLANES IN THE AIR, THAT WE DON’T HAVE 100% CONFIDENCE IN. I’M HERE TODAY IN THE SPIRIT OF TRANSPARENCY. NUMBER ONE, RECOGNIZE

THE SERIOUSNESS OF WHAT YOU JUST ASKED. TWO, TO SHARE EVERYTHING I CAN WITH OUR CAPITOL HILL INTERESTS AND ANSWER ALL THEIR QUESTIONS BECAUSE THEY HAVE A LOT OF THEM . >> DEFINITELY A LOT OF QUESTIONS FROM A LOT OF PEOPLE ARE NOW HEARING FROM AIRLINES ABOUT MORE OR LOSE

PARTS ON MORE AIRCRAFT. AND KYRA, WE STILL DON’T HAVE ANY ANSWERS FROM BOEING OR THE FAA OF WHEN THOSE MAX NINE JETS COULD RETURN TO THE SKIES. YEAH, A LOT OF PEOPLE WONDERING WHEN THAT WILL HAPPEN. >> AND JAY, LET’S JUST TALK WHO CALHOUN IS ACTUALLY MEETING

WITH TODAY AND WHAT ARE THOSE LAWMAKERS HOPING TO GET OUT OF HIM? >> YEAH, LET ME GO THROUGH AGENDA. HE’S MEETING WITH TED CRUZ, WHO’S THE RANKING MEMBER ON THE SENATE COMMERCE COMMITTEE, WHICH IS A COMMITTEE THAT IS SAM NOS. IS HE? I HAVE BEEN IN THOSE HEARINGS

THAT HAS BEEN TAKING A VERY QUIZZICAL LOOK AT THE AIRLINE INDUSTRY WRIT LARGE, IS IN CHARGE OF REGULATING THAT INDUSTRY. >> HE’S ALSO MEETING WITH MARK WARNER. WHEN I WOKE UP THIS MORNING AND SAW THESE MEETINGS, I WASN’T CLEAR WHY HE WAS MEETING WITH MARK WARNER, WHO HAS NOTHING DO WITH AIRLINES.

HE’S THE CHAIR OF THE INTELLIGENCE COMMITTEE, BUT A COLLEAGUE OF MINE, ALI POPCORN, WHO COVERS THE SENATE, REMINDS ME IT’S BECAUSE MARK WARNER IS THE SENATOR OF VIRGINIA. >> AND BOEING HAS SUCH A BIG FOOTPRINT IN THE STATE OF VIRGINIA. THE LAST THING HE’S MEETING WITH IS POTENTIALLY ONE OF

THE MOST IMPORTANT WHO IS MARIA CANTWELL, WHO IS THE CHAIR OF THE SENATE COMMERCE COMMITTEE. SHE HAS ALREADY INDICATED SHE’S INTERESTED IN LOOKING AT WHAT WENT WRONG HERE WITH BOEING POTENTIALLY HOLDING A POTENTIAL HEARING. >> SHE’S ALSO ALREADY SENT A LETTER TO THE FAA ASKING THEM ABOUT THEIR INSPECTIONS OF THE

BOEING PLANT AND WHAT THEY CAN PROVIDE AS ANY EVIDENCE ON THAT FRONT THERE. DEADLINE. BY THE WAY, TO GIVE HER THAT INFORMATION IS TOMORROW. ALL RIGHT. AND JUST ONE MORE, SAM, IF YOU DON’T MIND. WE HAVE BEEN TALKING ABOUT HOW HOW ALL THESE MAX, NINE PLANES HAVE NOW BEEN GROUNDED.

>> DO WE KNOW ANYTHING MORE ON THE INVESTIGATIONS AND ALSO THE INSPECTIONS THEY’RE SUPPOSED TO BE TAKING PLACE? >> WELL, THE AIRLINES DOING THEIR OWN INSPECTIONS, BUT THEY ARE STILL WAITING FOR INSTRUCTIONS FROM BOEING THAT HAD BEEN SIGNED OFF BY THE FAA ON EXACTLY HOW TO FIX THESE

MAX NINE JETS AND GET THEM BACK INTO THE AIR. AND WE ARE TOLD BY SOURCES THAT THAT COULD BE AT LEAST ANOTHER WEEK AWAY. BUT WHAT WE ARE NOW LEARNING IS THAT THESE AIRLINES ARE FINDING MORE IN THESE PARTS I MENTIONED EARLIER ON THESE PLANES. CERTAINLY CONCERNS FOR NEW AIRCRAFT.

AND NOW THE FEDERAL GOVERNMENT IS SENDING INSPECTORS TO BOEING TO GO OVER THEIR PARTS AND THEIR PROCESSES TO SEE HOW THEY PUT THESE PLANES TOGETHER AND FIGURE OUT WENT WRONG HERE. >> ALL RIGHT, SANJAY, THANK BOTH SO MUCH. >> WE’LL FOLLOW IT ALL THROUGHOUT THE DAY. OF COURSE.

SO IT MAY HAVE BEEN A DOUBLE DIGIT VICTORY, DONALD TRUMP. BUT NIKKI HALEY SAYS SHE VOWS TO STAY IN THE FIGHT. THE NEW HAMPSHIRE PRIMARY NOW MARKING THE FORMER PRESIDENT’S SECOND MAJOR WIN IN HIS BID TO BE REELECTED DESPITE DEFEATING THE FORMER U.N. AMBASSADOR BY MORE THAN 11 POINTS.

THE FORMER SOUTH CAROLINA SAYS SHE’S NOT GIVING UP. HALEY NOW TAKING THE RACE TO HER STATE WHERE SHE SERVED AS GOVERNOR WITH THE SOUTH CAROLINA PRIMARY EXACTLY ONE MONTH AWAY NOW. OUR ZOHREEN SHAH IS ON THE TRAIL IN NEW HAMPSHIRE, JOINS US NOW WITH MORE. SO NIKKI HALEY WAS REALLY

HOPING TO BE THE UNDERDOG IN NEW HAMPSHIRE. WHAT? YEAH, HOPE IS VERY DIFFERENT FROM REALITY. I MEAN, WE SPOKE THAT WHOLE WEEK BEFORE, RIGHT? I DON’T THINK THIS IS A SURPRISE THAT LAST WEEK SHE WAS TRAILING BY DOUBLE DIGITS. SHE WAS EXPECTED TO HERE. BUT WHAT SHE DID DO WAS

SHOW SOME WEAKNESS WITH TRUMP. SHE LOST INDEPENDENT VOTERS BY 24 POINTS. AND POLITICAL EXPERTS WILL TELL YOU THAT IS VERY WEAK INTO A GENERAL ELECTION. NOW, EVEN WITH HIS LEGAL WOES THAT APPEAR TO SORT OF BOLSTERING HIS CAMPAIGN, THAT IS SOMETHING THAT, YOU KNOW, HIS CAMPAIGN IS KEEPING THEIR EYES ON.

AND PROBABLY EVEN THAT’S FRUSTRATING HIM RIGHT NOW. >> YOU ASKED WHAT HAPPENED, THOUGH. I MEAN, LOOK, TRUMP HAS BEEN ON THE MINDS OF PEOPLE IN THIS STATE FOR A VERY LONG TIME. HE IS A FORMER PRESIDENT, A CELEBRITY. FOR ALL THAT, HE CAME HERE TO NEW HAMPSHIRE TO FLIRT WITH A POLITICAL WAR.

IN 1987, HE HAD FANS. HE HAD CROWDS WAY BACK THEN. THAT IS ALL VERY HARD TO BEAT AT. HIS MESSAGING REALLY RESONATES WITH AMERICANS WHEN IT’S ABOUT BORDER AND THE ECONOMY AND ALL OF THAT. SO TODAY, HALEY SAYS THAT IT’S PREPARED FOR A LONG TERM BATTLE HERE WITH TRUMP.

BUT WHILE SHE WILL CONTINUE ON IF SHE GETS BEAT IN OWN STATE, LET’S JUST HAVE A REALITY CHECK. AND YOU SAID GETS BEAT IN HER OWN STATE. I THINK THE QUESTION IS, WILL SHE COMPETE IN HER OWN HOME STATE. I MEAN, THERE’S A LOT OF TIME FOR HER TO DECIDE HERE.

THE PRIMARY THERE IS FEBRUARY 24TH. EXACTLY AS YOU SAID, ONE MONTH AWAY. BUT THIS IS SOMEONE WHO WANTS A POLITICAL FUTURE. SHE’S 52 YEARS OLD. NO POLITICIAN WANTS TO GET EMBARRASSED IN THEIR OWN HOME STATE, ESPECIALLY IF SHE’S TRAILING BY DOUBLE STILL THEN AS SHE IS NOW. THERE’S A VERY STRONG CHANCE

THAT SHE DROPS OUT IF THOSE NUMBERS HOLD. AND KAMALA HARRIS, I REMEMBER FOLLOWING HER IN 2019. SHE DROPPED OUT BEFORE HER NAME COULD EVEN APPEAR ON CALIFORNIA’S BALLOT ON SUPER TUESDAY. NO ONE EVER WANTS TO GET BEATEN IN THEIR OWN HOME STATE. ALL STAY TUNED. ZOHREEN SHAH APPRECIATE ALL YOUR REPORTING.

AND WE’RE ALSO BREAKING THE MOST RECENT DATA FROM NEW HAMPSHIRE AND LOOKING FORWARD TO SOUTH CAROLINA, LET’S BRING IN OUR ABC NEWS POLITICAL DIRECTOR RICK KLEIN WITH MORE ON THAT. >> HEY, RICK. KYRA, WHAT NIKKI HALEY IS TRYING TO DO IS QUITE A DAUNTING TASK NOW. SHE’S RIGHT.

THE ONLY TWO LITTLE STATES OF VOTERS, ALL THESE OTHER STATES LEFT ON THE CALENDAR. BUT IF YOU LOOK AT WHAT COMES UP JUST AFTER WHAT WE’VE ALREADY HAD SO FAR, THE NEXT STATE UP IS NEVADA 26 DELEGATES. GUESS WHAT? NIKKI HALEY CAN’T GET ANY OF THEM. SHE’S NOT EVEN ON THE BALLOT

ON THE CAUCUSES THERE. >> SO THAT IS OUT FOR CONSIDERATION. NEXT UP AFTER THAT IS HER HOME STATE OF SOUTH CAROLINA. THAT IS SO IMPORTANT FOR FRANKLY. >> SHE’S GOT TO WIN THAT STATE TO HAVE ANY CHANCE TO BE ABLE TO MOVE FORWARD TO MICHIGAN AND THEN TO SUPER TUESDAY.

>> HER TEAM IS TALKING ABOUT A LOT STATES THAT VOTE ON SUPER TUESDAY, THAT ALLOW INDEPENDENTS, THAT ALLOW DEMOCRATS TO VOTE. SIMILAR TO NEW HAMPSHIRE, YOU CAN CHANGE THE ELECTORATE BASED ON YOUR MESSAGING. SHE’D LOVE TO BE ABLE TO GET TO NORTH CAROLINA, TO VIRGINIA, TO MASSACHUSETTS. TEXAS.

THE ONLY WAY, THOUGH, FUNCTIONALLY SHE GETS THERE IS IF SHE WINS SOUTH CAROLINA. AND HERE’S SOME OF WHAT SHE’S UP AGAINST IN SOUTH CAROLINA. SHE WAS ELECTED TWICE STATEWIDE. BUT GUESS WHAT? SHE HAS NEVER COME CLOSE IN THE POLLING TO DONALD TRUMP IN THAT STATE RIGHT NOW. IN THE FIVETHIRTYEIGHT POLLING

AVERAGE, SHE’S DOWN 35 POINTS TO DONALD TRUMP. IT IS A MONTH AWAY. >> THAT’S REALLY UNUSUAL. WE’RE USED TO KIND OF A FAST PACE HERE, BUT THAT IS TIME FOR NIKKI HALEY TO START TO MAKE UP GROUND. SHE’S ALREADY GOT ADVERTISING. SHE’S GOING TO BE THERE LATER TODAY FOR HER FIRST CAMPAIGN

RALLY AFTER NEW HAMPSHIRE. SO SHE COULD DO. BUT WE’VE ALSO HEARD FROM DONALD TRUMP BEGINNING TO FORECAST SOME OF THE ATTACKS THAT ARE COMING IN. AND SHE’S GOING TO HAVE TO CLOSE THAT GAP AND CLOSE IT FAST IF SHE’S GOING TO HAVE ANY SHOT AT THE NOMINATION KYRA.

>> ALL RIGHT, RICK KLEIN THANKS SO MUCH. WELL, MILLIONS OF AMERICANS ARE ON ALERT AND IN THE PATH OF MORE EXTREME WEATHER. FLOOD RAVAGED SAN DIEGO STILL FROM DAYS OF TORRENTIAL RAIN. THE NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE CONFIRMING THAT IT HAD ITS FOURTH WETTEST DAY ON RECORD THIS WEEK. SAN DIEGO’S SAYING IT WILL TAKE

MONTHS TO CLEAN UP NOW AND THEN. HEAVY SLAMMING PARTS OF TEXAS. FLOOD WARNINGS THERE IN EFFECT IN THE EASTERN PART OF THE STATE. AND EXTREME WEATHER COULD ALSO BRING DAMAGING WINDS AND POSSIBLE TORNADOES TO THE SOUTH. METEOROLOGIST SOMARA THEODORE IS TRACKING ALL THAT FOR US TOMORROW. >> WHERE WOULD YOU LIKE TO BEGIN?

OH, WELL, WE’RE GOING TO HEAD OF THE GULF COAST STATES BECAUSE. >> THAT IS THE IMMINENT THREAT THERE RIGHT NOW. WE ARE WE’VE ALREADY BEEN SEEING COPIOUS AMOUNTS OF RAIN FALLING IN THIS REGION AND THEY’RE IN FOR MORE FROM HOUSTON TO BIRMINGHAM TODAY. WE HAVE THE THREAT FOR.

NOW, IF YOU LOOK IN THIS LITTLE RED POCKET HERE, ALEXANDRA, IN NEW ORLEANS, JACKSON, MISSISSIPPI, YOU WILL HAVE THE HIGHEST RISK FOR FLASH FLOODING. AND THAT’S WE’RE GOING TO SEE SOME OF THE HEAVIEST RAIN FALLING TODAY BETWEEN HOUSTON AND JACKSON, MISSISSIPPI. >> THERE IS ALSO A THREAT FOR TORNADOES.

SO THESE STORMS THAT ARE RIDING THROUGH, THEY HAVE AMPLE MOISTURE. THEY’RE PULLING ON THAT MOISTURE FROM THE GULF OF MEXICO. THEY’RE USING THE MOISTURE FROM THAT SYSTEM THAT BROUGHT THE FLOODING TO SAN DIEGO JUST A MONDAY. AND NOW WE ARE IN FOR THE THREAT FOR TORNADOES ALONG WITH THAT FLASH FLOODING.

SO WE COULD SEE 3 TO 6 PLUS INCHES OF RAIN. THAT’S A LOT OF RAIN A SHORT AMOUNT OF TIME. >> AND THEN ATLANTA, YOU’RE UP NEXT TOMORROW, YOU’LL BE IN FOR SHOWERS, 2 TO 3 INCHES ROUGHLY, BUT SOME SPOTS COULD HIT FIVE INCHES OF RAIN. SO FLOODING COULD THEN BECOME

AN ISSUE IN ATLANTA. LET’S OUT TO THE NORTHEAST NEXT. SO HERE WE ARE IN SARANAC LAKE, NEW YORK. THIS WAS EARLIER TODAY. ABSOLUTELY GORGEOUS WINTER WONDERLAND. THAT’S ALL SHIFTING. THE SAME STORM SYSTEM GETS A LOT OF WARM AIR WITH IT AND WE SEE MORE RAIN START TO

MOVE INTO UPSTATE NEW YORK AS OPPOSED TO WINTRY WEATHER. SO WE’RE STARTING TO SEE THOSE WINTER WEATHER ADVISORIES FALL OFF AS WE HEAD THROUGH THE EVENING HOURS. >> PENNSYLVANIA SCRANTON, SYRACUSE, BOSTON, ALL RAIN, MAYBE A BIT OF ICE UP TOWARDS CITIES LIKE PORTLAND, MAINE, AND PARTS OF NEW HAMPSHIRE AND VERMONT.

>> SO KEEP THAT IN MIND. THEN WE GO FROM ICE TO WARM AIR. LOOK AT THIS. CLIMATOLOGICAL OUTLOOK FOR JANUARY 31ST AND FEBRUARY SIX. AS WE ENTER FEBRUARY, WE EXPECTING NEAR RECORD HIGH TEMPERATURES FOR AREAS NEAR THE GREAT LAKES, INCLUDES KANSAS CITY AS WELL AS CHICAGO. AS FAR AS TEMPERATURES, KYRA,

BY THE END OF THE WEEK, WASHINGTON, D.C. COULD BE IN THE 70S. >> WELL, OKAY. WELL, THAT’S FOR US. THANKS SO MUCH, CHRIS. THANK YOU SO MUCH. WELL, U.S. MILITARY IS LAUNCHING ANOTHER FIERCE ROUND OF ATTACKS ON THE IRAN BACKED MILITIA GROUPS, THIS TIME IN IRAQ. SECRETARY OF DEFENSE AUSTIN

CALLING STRIKES A DIRECT RESPONSE TO THE IRANIAN SPONSORED ATTACKS AGAINST U.S. FORCES. THE REGION. U.S. CENTRAL COMMAND REPORTING TUESDAY STRIKES TARGETED SITES IN IRAQ, INCLUDING A WEAPONS STORAGE FACILITY, HOUSING, DRONES AND MISSILES. ALSO BLAMING THE MILITIA GROUPS FOR THOSE ATTACKS ON AMERICAN TROOPS LIVING ON THE AL-ASSAD AIR. FOR MORE.

LET’S BRING IN OUR SENIOR PENTAGON REPORTER, LUIS MARTINEZ. SO LOUIS, WHAT MORE DO WE KNOW ABOUT THE STRIKES IN IRAQ? KYRA, WE WITH A U.S. OFFICIAL WHO TELLS US THAT THEY BELIEVE THAT THE STRIKES LAST NIGHT IN THOSE THREE TARGETS WERE EFFECTIVE, THAT THEY HIT TWO HEADQUARTERS BUILDINGS AND AN INTELLIGENCE BUILDING,

AND THAT THEY BELIEVE THAT SEVEN MEMBERS OF KATAIB HEZBOLLAH, THAT’S THE PARTICULAR ISLAMIC BACKED MILITIA THAT THEY BELIEVE IS RESPONSIBLE FOR THESE ATTACKS WERE KILLED IN LAST NIGHT’S AIRSTRIKES. SO THAT’S LATEST INFORMATION THAT WE HAVE ABOUT WHAT WHAT THEY TARGETED AND WHAT THE RESULTS OF THOSE AIRSTRIKES, WHICH WE KNOW WERE

CARRIED OUT NIGHT IN DIRECT RESPONSE TO THAT ATTACK ON AL-ASAD AIR BASE, WHERE 17 MISSILES AND ROCKETS WERE LAUNCHED AT THAT BASE IN WESTERN IRAQ, INJURING AT LEAST FOUR SERVICE MEMBERS WITH TRAUMATIC BRAIN INJURIES. >> SO CENTCOM ALSO ANNOUNCING THIS AIRSTRIKE IN YEMEN TARGETING THE HOUTHI ANTI-SHIP MISSILES.

DO YOU HAVE ON THAT? KYRA, THIS IS THE NINTH AIR STRIKE CARRIED OUT BY THE UNITED STATES IN RETALIATION, THE HOUTHIS LAUNCHING THESE ATTACKS ON SHIPPING VESSELS, GOING THROUGH THE RED SEA AND THE GULF OF ADEN. SO THE RESPONSE IS THAT IF THE UNITED STATES SEES THAT THESE MISSILES ARE BEING

LOADED, THEY ARE GOING TO STRIKE AT THEM PREEMPTIVELY. THAT’S WHAT WE’VE SEEN OVER THE LAST WEEK. EARLIER WEEK, WE SAW THIS COORDINATED MISSION, WHICH THE UNITED STATES AND THE UNITED KINGDOM HAVE, THAT STRUCK A VARIETY OF TARGETS THROUGHOUT YEMEN. AND THE GOAL HERE IS TO DEGRADE THE HOUTHIS CAPABILITY OF MISSILES.

BUT AS WE JUST LEARNED THIS AFTERNOON, THERE WAS ANOTHER HOUTHI ATTACK, DID NOT STRIKE A VESSEL IN AN AMERICAN SHIP, BUT AN AMERICAN DESTROY THAT WAS NEARBY, HAD TO SHOOT DOWN TWO OR THREE MISSILES AIMED AT THAT SHIP. >> SO HOW WORRIED ARE U.S. OFFICIALS NOW ABOUT THIS CONFLICT CONTINUING ESCALATE ANY FURTHER?

COULD WE SEE OTHER POSSIBLY? >> WELL, YOU KNOW, WE’RE SEEING NOW A TOTAL OF TEN AIRSTRIKES SINCE JANUARY 11TH. THE ONE IN IRAQ AND THE NINE IN YEMEN. AMERICAN OFFICIALS SAYING THAT THEY ARE TRYING TO DEGRADE THE CAPABILITIES OF THE MILITIAS IN IRAQ AS WELL AS THE HOUTHIS IN YEMEN, AND THAT

THEY’RE NOT LOOKING FOR CONFLICT. SO ULTIMATELY, IT’S ALWAYS IN THE COURT OF THOSE MILITIAS AND ENTITIES BECAUSE THE UNITED STATES, THEY DON’T WANT THIS CONFLICT GROWING. THE CONFLICT WE’RE TALKING ABOUT IS HAMAS AND ISRAEL AND GAZA. THE GOAL HERE IS TO CONTAIN ALL THAT VIOLENCE TAKING PLACE

IN THESE OTHER COUNTRIES. ALL RIGHT, LUIS MARTINEZ. WE’LL CONTINUE TO FOLLOW IT ALL WITH YOU. APPRECIATE IT. ALSO, A RUSSIAN MILITARY PLANE CARRYING 74 PEOPLE, 65 OF THEM UKRAINIAN PRISONERS OF WAR HAS CRASHED NEAR THE RUSSIA UKRAINE BORDER. IT’S BEING REPORTED ON RUSSIAN STATE MEDIA AND IT SAYS

THAT THE CAPTURED SOLDIERS WERE BEING TAKEN TO PRISONER EXCHANGE. AND A REGIONAL GOVERNOR SAYS THAT EVERYONE ON BOARD KILLED. UKRAINE HAS NOT CONFIRMED THIS INCIDENT NOR, THAT A PRISONER EXCHANGE WAS EVEN PLANNED. WE’LL TRACK IT. COMING UP. PROSECUTORS HAVE REVEALED NEVER BEFORE SEEN EVIDENCE IN THE CASE AGAINST MICHELLE TROCONIS.

THE NEW VIDEOS AND HOW IT ALL CONNECTS TO THE MURDER OF JENNIFER DULOS. WHEN WE RETURN. TONIGHT, AFTER THE GOP FACE OFF WHERE THE RACE THE WHITE HOUSE STANDS. PLUS, THE WARS IN ISRAEL AND UKRAINE AND THE STRIKES AGAINST COMMUNITIES IN YEMEN. MORE AMERICANS TURN TO MOST WATCHED NEWSCAST ON TELEVISION.

“WORLD NEWS TONIGHT” WITH DAVID MUIR. >> GIVE IT TO ME. >> LOOK UP. THERE’S GOT TO BE SOMETHING OUT THERE. YOU’RE SHOCKED. SCARED TO DEATH. OH, WOW. MY NAME IS KAT PATTERSON, AND I AM AN ALIEN ABDUCTION. EXTRATERRESTRIAL INTELLIGENCE. ALIENS. WE ARE GETTING CLOSER TO GRAVEL

ROAD THAT IS SUPPOSED TO LEAD US TO AREA 51. >> ARE WE ALONE? IT’S ABOUT TIME NOW TO FIND OUT THE ANSWER. ALIENS. WE ARE ALONE NOW STREAMING ON HULU. >> IN COURSE, LIKE ONE OF THE BIGGEST ONLINE ROCK FACES ON THE PLANET. NOW IT’S STARTING TO GET VERY EXCITED.

IF WE TO CLIMB IN RECORD LIKE IT KNOW BE THE BIGGEST FIRST THAT YOU’VE EVER DONE. ULTIMATELY, WHAT’S AT STAKE WITH TIME? THIS IS NOT WHAT SIGNED UP FOR BECAUSE IT WAS YOUR LIFE. I SO GLAD YOU’RE SWIMMING WITH US. >> WELL, HE WAS CONVICTED FOR FIRE AT HIS HIGH SCHOOL,

KILLING FOUR PEOPLE AND WOUNDING SEVERAL OTHERS. NOW, THE MOTHER OF ETHAN CRUMBLY, IS IN COURT FOR GIVING HER SON. ACCESS TO THAT GUN. JENNIFER CRUMBLY, NOW FACING FOUR COUNTS OF INVOLUNTARY MANSLAUGHTER. HER SON, ETHAN HAS SINCE BEEN SENTENCED TO LIFE IN PRISON WITHOUT THE POSSIBILITY OF PAROLE. PROSECUTORS SAY HIS PARENTS

DIDN’T TELL SCHOOL OFFICIALS ETHAN HAD ACCESS TO THAT GUN WHEN THEY WERE CALLED TO A SCHOOL MTING JUST HOURS BEFORE THE SHOOTING. THE TRIAL IS THE FIRST TIME PARENTS HAVE BEEN CHARGED CONNECTION WITH A SCHOOL SHOOTING IN THE UNITED STATES. OUR TREVOR AULT AND LEGAL CONTRIBUTOR BRIAN BUCKMIRE HAVE BEEN FOLLOWING THE CASE

FROM THE VERY BEGINNING. BRIAN, START WITH YOU. >> WHAT CAN WE EXPECT TO HAPPEN IN COURT TODAY? >> SO THERE WILL BE MORE JURY SELECTION FOR WHAT WE’RE SEEING IN PREVIOUS DAYS. THE DEFENSE AND PROSECUTION ARE FOCUSING ON ISSUES, GUN RIGHTS, PARENTAL RESPONSIBILITY, WHAT YOU BELIEVE IN TERMS, OF WHAT

A PARENT SHOULD DO IN TERMS OF KEEPING THAT GUN LOCKED AND SAFE. >> WE CLEARLY KNOW THAT THE SHOOTER IN THIS CASE HAD ACCESS, A GUN. AND SO WHAT THE DEFENSE AND PROSECUTION ARE TRYING TO DO IS TRY AND FIND AN UNBIASED PERSON, NOT NECESSARILY SOMEONE DOESN’T

KNOW ABOUT THE CASE, BUT KNOWS ENOUGH ABOUT THE CASE FOR WILL HOLD JUDGMENT UNTIL. THEY SEE ALL THE EVIDENCE IN THIS CASE. THEY’RE EXPECTING TO FIND A JURY BY THE END OF TODAY AND THEN POTENTIALLY START WHAT I BELIEVE TO BE A 3 TO 4 WEEK TRIAL. AND THEN THE HUSBAND HAVING

A TRIAL RIGHT AFTER THAT. >> SO, TREVOR, AMONG THE EVIDENCE AGAINST THE PARENTS HERE ARE THESE MESSAGES THAT THE PARENTS ACTUALLY SENT THEIR SON ON THE DAY OF THE SHOOTING, EVEN THE ONE THAT WE SAW. >> DON’T DO IT. HOW COULD THOSE IMPACT THE TRIAL HERE? >> YES. SOME CONTEXT FOR THAT MESSAGE,

KYRA, ACCORDING TO PROSECUTORS, IS THAT ONE OF THE SHOOTER’S PARENTS, AFTER THE SHOOTING HAD STARTED TO HAPPEN AND WORD WAS SPREADING AROUND THE COMMUNITY. ONE OF THOSE PARENTS LEARNED THAT A SHOOTING WAS HAPPENING AT THE SCHOOL. THEY DIDN’T KNOW WHO WAS DOING IT, BUT IMMEDIATELY THEN, ACCORDING TO PROSECUTORS,

TEXTED THEIR, SON, DON’T DO IT, WHICH I BELIEVE PROSECUTORS ARE GOING TO USE AS EVIDENCE TO SHOW THAT THESE PARENTS HAD IT. SO IN THE FOREFRONT OF THEIR MINDS THAT THEIR SON COULD BE CAPABLE OF DOING THIS THAT. AS SOON AS THEY HEARD A SHOOTING OCCURRED, THEY ASSUMED IT WAS THEIR SON,

WHICH THEY BELIEVE, ACCORDING TO PROSECUTORS, IS PROOF THAT THEY KNEW THIS WAS A POSSIBILITY AND THEY DIDN’T DO ENOUGH OR ANYTHING TO STOP IT. THAT, OF COURSE, IS GOING TO BE THE CRUX OF THIS ENTIRE ARGUMENT, AS WE HAVE SAID, THIS IS THE FIRST TIME THAT PARENTS

HAVE BEEN CHARGED IN THE CASE OF A SCHOOL SHOOTING. BASICALLY, WHAT PROSECUTORS HAVE SAID AND I WAS THERE IN THE AFTERMATH OF THE SHOOTING, I’VE TALKED TO THE PROSECUTOR MYSELF. SHE SAID THAT SHE’S NOT TRYING TO SET A PRECEDENT HERE ABOUT, YOU KNOW, ALL PARENTS NEED TO BE HELD RESPONSIBLE FOR

THEIR CHILD’S BEHAVIOR, BUT THEY FELT THE PARENTS BEHAVIOR WAS SO EGREGIOUS HERE THAT IT WAS CRIMINAL IN NATURE . >> SO, BRIAN, OVER THE PAST 25 MONTHS, THE CRUMBLY PARENTS HAD ARGUED TOGETHER THROUGH COURT BATTLES AS THEY APPEALED CHARGES ALL THE WAY TO THE STATE SUPREME COURT. BUT LAST OCTOBER, THE MICHIGAN

SUPREME COURT REFUSED TO HEAR APPEALS FROM THE CRUMBLES. WHY DO YOU THINK THAT IS? >> SO THE MICHIGAN SUPREME COURT GAVE US THIS THREE LINE PARAGRAPH, BASICALLY SAYING THAT WHAT WAS DECIDING THE APPEALS COURT, THAT THE LOWER COURT JUST BELOW THE MICHIGAN SUPREME COURT RULED STATE. >> THEY SAID THAT THE ISSUE

PRESENTS ARE NOT ONES THAT THEY BELIEVE SHOULD BE ADDRESSED. THERE ARE A NUMBER OF REASONS STATE SUPREME COURT WOULD SAY THAT CONCEPT OF RIGHTNESS THAT IS NOT READY FOR THEM TO DECIDE. BUT I THINK REGARDLESS OF THE PROPER THINGS, THIS WILL BE A CASE SETS A PRECEDENT AROUND THE COUNTRY.

YEAH, I THINK IT WILL, TOO. WE’RE GOING TO FOLLOW IT CLOSELY. TREVOR BRYAN, THANK YOU BOTH SO MUCH. WELL, HAVE REVEALED NEVER BEFORE SEEN EVIDENCE IN THE CASE AGAINST MICHELLE TROCONIS . SHE’S THAT CONNECTICUT WOMAN ACCUSED OF HELPING HER LATE BOYFRIEND COVER UP THE MURDER OF HIS ESTRANGED WIFE, JENNIFER DULOS.

NOW, PROSECUTORS SAY THAT VIDEOS AND OTHER EVIDENCE CONNECTS TROCONIS TO THE CRIME. THE DEFENSE ARGUES THAT TROCONIS HAD NO IDEA WHAT HER BOYFRIEND WAS UP TO. HERE’S OUR ERIELLE RESHEF WITH MORE. >> GOOD MORNING, YOUR HONOR. A JURY HEARING THE CASE AGAINST MICHELLE TROCONIS THE ALLEGED ACCOMPLICE AND GIRLFRIEND

OF THE CONNECTICUT FATHER ACCUSED OF KILLING HIS ESTRANGED WIFE, THE MOTHER OF THEIR FIVE CHILDREN, JENNIFER DULOS, MISSING FOR FOUR YEARS BEFORE BEING DECLARED LEGALLY DEAD IN 2023 HER HUSBAND, FOTIS DULOS, DYING BY SUICIDE WHILE AWAITING FOR HER DEATH. NOW TROCONIS FACING CHARGES INCLUDING CONSPIRACY TO COMMIT MURDER. >> PROSECUTORS ZEROING IN ON

SURVEILLANCE VIDEOS SHOWING FOTIS ALLEGEDLY TRAVELING MILES HIS HOME TO HARTFORD IN HIS BLACK PICKUP TRUCK AFTER HIS ESTRANGED DISAPPEARANCE, THROWING AWAY 30 BAGS OF ITEMS IN VARIOUS TRASH RECEPTACLES AROUND THE CITY. >> ONE SHOT SHOWING A WOMAN BENDING OUT OF THAT TRUCK. PROSECUTORS SAY IT WAS TRUCK JONAS. HER ATTORNEYS DENY

HER COMPLICITY IN MONEY CLEARLY WAS INVOLVED. BUT, YOU KNOW, THE BOTTOM LINE IS YET TO SEE ANYTHING THAT SUGGESTS THAT SHELTER PUNISHMENT, ANYTHING ABOUT WHAT’S ONE OF THE SMARTEST THAT THE DEFENSE CAN TAKE IS TO ADMIT THAT SHE WAS IN THE CAR. IF SHE WAS IN THE CAR.

>> THAT HER DNA IS GOING TO BE FOUND ON EVERYTHING. THEY DON’T HAVE TO EXPLAIN THAT PORTION OF THE EVIDENCE. THEY JUST HAVE TO DISPUTE NOW WHETHER OR NOT SHE WAS KNOWLEDGEABLE OF WHAT THESE ITEMS CONTAINED IN COURT. JURORS SAYING ZIP TIES, GLOVES AND CLOTHING WITH BLOOD STAINS

SAY WERE PULLED FROM THOSE TRASH BINS BEFORE HER DEATH. JENNIFER AND FOTIS LOCKED IN A BITTER DIVORCE AND CUSTODY BATTLE AND. PROSECUTORS ALLEGE TROCONIS PLOTTED WITH HIM TO KILL JENNIFER, THEN COVER UP THE CRIME. THE FAMILY NANNY TAKING TO THE STAND DESCRIBING THE DAY SHE REPORTED JENNIFER MISSING.

THE SECOND I CALLED JENNIFER. IT’S LIKE MY STOMACH JUST BECAUSE SHE NEVER ANSWERED THE PHONE. THANKS TO ERIELLE RESHEF FOR THAT WILL FOLLOW IT. ALSO COMING UP, HE GOT AWAY PRETENDING TO BE A POLICE OFFICER FOR THREE YEARS. NOW THE EVIDENCE AND CHARGES NE, WHEREVER NEWS BREAKS, IT’S SO

IMPORTANT TO ALWAYS REMEMBER THAT LIVES CHANGED HERE IN LONDON, IN BARCELONA, ALL DAY. >> TAXES. EDINBURGH, SCOTLAND REPORTING FROM ROLLING FORK, MISSISSIPPI, UKRAINIAN REFUGEES.

HIS SENTENCE TODAY. PROSECUTORS CALLED MARK BREW, ONE OF THE LAST REMORSEFUL RIOTERS ON JANUARY SIX. THE JUSTICE DEPARTMENT SAYS HE WAS ALSO PLOTTING AN ARMED INSURRECTION OF PORTLAND. OREGON STATE CAPITOL BREW MAINTAINS INNOCENCE. INVESTIGATORS SAY A MAN IN AUSTIN, TEXAS, GOT AWAY WITH PRETENDING TO BE A COP FOR THREE YEARS.

OUR AFFILIATE KATU, REPORTING 35-YEAR-OLD SEAN MCDONALD, SEEN HERE, POSTED PHOTOS, VIDEOS OF HIMSELF WEARING AN AUSTIN POLICE OFFICER’S UNIFORM IN SOME PHOTOS, EVEN WEARING A FULLY EQUIPPED GUN BELT. DONALD IS CHARGED WITH MISDEMEANOR FALSE IDENTIFICATION AS A POLICE AND COULD FACE UP TO SIX MONTHS IN JAIL. HE IS RECALLING MORE THAN

100,000 CARS NOW SAYING PARTS OF THE CAR’S ROOF MOLDING DETACH AND INCREASE THE RISK OF A CRASH. THE RECALL AFFECTS SPORTAGE AND CARNIVAL MODELS. THE CAR MANUFACTURER SAYS IT’S AWARE OF ANY CRASHES OR INJURIES RELATED TO THE DEFECT. AS OF. BUT DRIVERS MAY NOTICE A NOISE WHILE DRIVING IF THEIR VEHICLE

IS AFFECTED. WELL, IT’S — IT’S NOT THAT JUST KEEPS ON SNUBBING. AND NOW THE STARS ARE WEIGHING IN ON THE SWIRLING CONTROVERSY FOLLOWING THAT OSCAR DISS INVOLVING BARBIE. DESPITE THE FILMS YEAR, GRETA GERWIG WAS NOT NOMINATED IN THE DIRECTOR CATEGORY AND MARGOT ROBBIE GOT NO NOMINATION FOR LEAD. SO NOMINATED COSTARS

RYAN GOSLING, AMERICA FERRERA ARE NOW SPEAKING OUT. HERE’S OUR LARA SPENCER CARLSON . CONFUSION IN HOLLYWOOD, OVER A MAJOR OSCARS SNUB. >> HIGH FIVING. HI, BARBIE. BARBIE SCORING EIGHT NOMINATIONS. AND IT TURNS, IN FACT, THAT NOT ONLY ARE YOU DOING EVERYTHING WRONG, BUT ALSO EVERYTHING IS YOUR FAULT, INCLUDING BEST

SUPPORTING ACTRESS FOR AMERICA FERRERA AND SUPPORTING ACTOR RYAN. THE MOVIE ALSO GETTING A BEST PICTURE NOD, BUT LEFT OUT THE BILLION DOLLAR BLOCKBUSTER STAR MARGOT ROBBIE, BEST ACTRESS AND GRETA GERWIG FOR DIRECTING. >> I THINK THAT’S THE NAME THAT EVERYONE HAS ON THEIR IS NOT BARBIE, IT’S GRETA GERWIG.

GRETA DID GET NOMINATED ADAPTED SCREENPLAY, BUT SHE WAS SNUBBED AND BEST DIRECTOR. WHICH MANY PEOPLE, INCLUDING MYSELF, THOUGHT THAT SHE WAS GOING TO BE A IN FOR. >> FANS ARE UPSET. HOW DOES CAN GET AN OSCAR NOMINATION FOR BARBIE BUT BARBIE DOESN’T GET AN OSCAR NOMINATION FOR. >> IF YOU SCRIPTED THIS

SCENARIO, NO ONE WOULD EVER BELIEVE YOU. AND GOSLING RELEASING A STATEMENT SAYING, QUOTE, THERE IS NO CANNES WITHOUT BARBIE AND THERE IS NO “BARBIE” MOVIE WITHOUT GRETA GERWIG AND MARGOT ROBBIE. TO SAY THAT I’M DISAPPOINTED DID THAT THEY ARE NOT NOMINATED IN THEIR RESPECTIVE CATEGORIES WOULD BE AN UNDERSTATEMENT

IS LITERALLY IMPOSSIBLE TO BE A WOMAN. THE NOMINATIONS FOR EACH CATEGORY, THOUGH, DETERMINED BY THOSE WHO WERE MEMBERS OF IT. MANY ACTORS VOTE FOR ACTORS AND DIRECTORS, DETERMINE WHO GETS THE DIRECTING NODS. >> THE DIRCTORS BRANCH IN IT. >> IT DOES LEAN MUCH MORE MALE AND, AN OLDER GROUP OF VOTERS.

>> BUT EXPERTS SAY. THE SNUB COULD END UP PLAYING TO BARBIE’S ADVANTAGE WHEN IT COMES TO PICTURE. >> ANYTHING CAN HAPPEN. ATTITUDES CAN CHANGE. PEOPLE CAN, YOU KNOW, RALLY BEHIND A FILM IF THEY THINK IT’S KIND OF LAGGING BEHIND OTHERS. SO THIS DEFINITELY SOMETHING THAT THE AWARD STRATEGISTS

BEHIND BARBIE OR ANY OTHER FILMS FOR THAT MATTER, WILL PROBABLY CONSIDER AND TRY TO TAKE ADVANTAGE OF. AND OUR THANKS TO LARA SPENCER FOR THAT. >> THANKS FOR SHARING WITH US. I’M KYRA PHILLIPS. THE NEWS NEVER STOPS. WE GET A LOT MORE ON THE OTHER SIDE. STAY WITH US.

AS SENATORS DEMAND ANSWERS ABOUT SAFETY INSPECTIONS AFTER THE BLOW OUT ON A NEW ALASKA AIRLINES JET RESULTING IN A GROUNDED MAX NINE AIRPLANES. DONALD TRUMP MAY HAVE BEAT NIKKI HALEY, BUT SHE VOWS TO STAY IN THE FIGHT. THE FORMER PRESIDENT DOUBLING DOWN ON HIS ATTACKS WHILE THE FORMER SOUTH CAROLINA

GOVERNOR SAYS HER STATE WILL PROTECT HER STATE OF THE RACE STRAIGHT AHEAD. ISRAELI PRIME MINISTER BENJAMIN NETANYAHU UNDER PRESSURE AS FAMILIES OF HOSTAGES PROTEST OUTSIDE HIS HOME. OUR MATT GUTMAN JOINS US LIVE FROM TEL AVIV. GOOD AFTERNOON, EVERYONE. >> I’M KYRA PHILLIPS. WE BEGIN WITH THE CEO OF BOEING

UNDER FIRE NOW FACING LAWMAKERS ON CAPITOL HILL. THAT MEETING COMING AMID GROWING SCRUTINY AFTER A SERIES OF INCIDENTS INVOLVING JETS, INCLUDING THAT MIDAIR DOOR BLOWOUT ON AN ALASKA AIRLINES 37 MAX NINE EARLIER THIS MONTH. THE FAA IS ALSO INVESTIGATING A BOEING PLANE INCIDENT IN ATLANTA JUST OVER THE WEEKEND WHERE A TIRE

ACTUALLY FELL OFF A DELTA FLIGHT JUST BEFORE TAKEOFF. LEADING US OFF THIS HOUR ARE ABC NEWS TRANSPORTATION CORRESPONDENT GIO BENITEZ. ALSO OUR JAY O’BRIEN, WHO FOLLOWS EVERYTHING ON THE HILL FOR US. GINA, LET’S START WITH THE LATEST. THE MEETING. WHAT DO WE KNOW? SO WE KNOW THAT HE MET SENATORS

CANTWELL, WARNER AND SENATOR SULLIVAN OF ALASKA AS WELL. I WAS ABLE TO SPEAK TO SENATOR SULLIVAN AFTERWARD, AND HE BASICALLY SAID, LISTEN, THE BIGGEST ISSUE HERE IS SAFETY. WHEN ARE MAX NINE GOING TO GET BACK IN THE AIR AFTER THAT A DOOR PLUG FLEW OFF THE ALASKA AIRLINES FLIGHT?

WE’RE TOLD THAT HE TOLD SULLIVAN THAT THIS WOULD BE A MATTER OF DAYS IF WEEKS, BUT DEFINITELY NOT MONTHS. THAT’S WHAT HE SAID. THAT IS CERTAINLY HIS HOPE THAT THIS IS NOT EXTENDED INTO A MONTH LONG SITUATION WHERE THEY ARE INSPECTING THESE. BUT THE TRUTH IS THAT, RIGHT NOW, THE AIRLINES STILL

DO NOT HAVE ANY OFFICIAL INSPECTIONS, REDUCTIONS FROM THE FAA OR BOEING. >> SO, JAY, WHY IS SENATOR MARK WARNER INVOLVED IN THE MEETING NOW? AND WHAT HAVE WE HEARD FROM OTHER LAWMAKERS ABOUT THE ALASKA INCIDENT THAT STARTED ALL OF THIS? YEAH, AND SENATOR IS INVOLVED, IT SEEMS, BECAUSE HE’S NOT

INVOLVED IN REGULATING THE AIRLINE INDUSTRY PER SAY, WITH THIS COMMITTEE ASSIGNMENTS ON THE HILL. BUT HE’S THE SENATOR FROM VIRGINIA. AND BOEING HAS A BIG FOOTPRINT IN THE STATE OF VIRGINIA. IN THE OTHER NAMES THAT JOE JUST LISTED, THE TEA AND ALL OF THAT IS THAT THAT’S A MURDERER’S ROW OF PEOPLE

ON THE SENATE COMMERCE COMMITTEE. THE SENATE COMMERCE COMMITTEE HAS BEEN INVOLVED IN THE LAST FEW YEARS IN REGULATING THE AIRLINE. AND THEY’VE EXPRESSED THEY WANT TO HOLD HEARINGS, AS YOU SAID, KYRA, ON ALASKA AIRLINES AND PARTICULARLY WHAT THE FAA INSPECTIONS BEEN LIKE AT BOEING MANUFACTURING FACILITIES. >> SO, JOE, SINCE THE ALASKA

AIRLINES INCIDENT, MAX, NINE PLANES HAVE BEEN GROUNDED . WHAT’S THE LATEST WITH THE INVESTIGATIONS? AND DO WE KNOW ANYTHING ABOUT WHAT WHAT AIRLINES ARE FINDING DURING THESE THAT APPARENTLY, AS YOU TOLD US EARLIER, HAVEN’T STARTED YET BECAUSE THEY REALLY NEED TO LAY OUT THE GROUND RULES. >> RIGHT. RIGHT.

SO BASICALLY, KYRA, RIGHT NOW, ALL OF THE AIRLINES ARE DOING WHAT THEY CAN, LOOKING AT WHAT THEY CAN AND WHAT THEIR OWN MECHANICS CAN THINK OF, BUT THEY CAN’T DO. THE KIND OF INSPECTION THAT’S NEEDED FOR THE FAA TO ALLOW THEM TO FLY THE MAX NINE, BECAUSE THOSE INSTRUCTIONS,

THEY ARE STILL WAITING ON THEM. BUT ALASKA AIRLINES CEO, HE BASICALLY SAID WE HAVE MANY, MANY BOLTS THAT THEY FOUND THAT WERE LOOSE ON THEIR DOOR PLUGS. WE KNOW AS WELL THAT UNITED HAS ALSO THAT THEY FOUND SOME DOOR PLUGS THAT HAD SOME LOOSE BOLTS. SO THEY’RE GOING TO BE LOOKING

AT THAT BECAUSE THAT’S VERY, VERY CONCERNING. AND WHERE THAT COMING FROM? DID THAT HAPPEN DURING THE MANUFACTURING AND THE INSTALLATION OR LATER ON? GOT IT. JOE AND JAY WILL FOLLOW THIS, OF COURSE, TO THE VERY END. APPRECIATE IT. SO A DOUBLE DIGIT VICTORY FOR DONALD TRUMP, BUT NIKKI HALEY

REFUSES GIVE UP AFTER YESTERDAY’S NEW HAMPSHIRE PRIMARY, EVEN THOUGH THIS IS THE FORMER PRESIDENT’S SECOND MAJOR WIN IN HIS BID TO BE THE GOP NOMINEE. THE FORMER SOUTH CAROLINA GOVERNOR SAYS SHE’S VOWING TO STILL FIGHT. NOW TAKING THE RACE TO HER HOME STATE, THE SOUTH CAROLINA PRIMARY IS EXACTLY ONE MONTH

AWAY NOW. OUR ZOHREEN SHAH IS ON THE TRAIL IN NEW HAMPSHIRE, JOINS US NOW FOR MORE. SO ZAREEN TRUMP MAY HAVE, BUT NIKKI HALEY DID OVERPERFORM EXPECTATIONS IN MANY WAYS. >> YEAH, I’M NOT SURE OVERPERFORM IS THE RIGHT WORD. I MEAN, TRUMP LOST VOTERS BY 24 POINTS AND THAT IS VERY WEAK

INTO A GENERAL ELECTION. BUT HALEY WAS SUPPOSED TO ALWAYS PERFORM WELL WITH INDEPENDENTS ALMOST TO THE POINT WHERE SHE WAS RELIANT ON THEM. I MEAN THE STATE IS 40% INDEPENDENT AND THERE’S NOT THAT SAME SYSTEM OTHER STATES. SO, YOU KNOW, SOMETIMES YOU CAN BE AN INDEPENDENT AND VOTE LAST MINUTE OF THE

REPUBLICAN BALLOT. SO THE MAP GETS REALLY HARD FOR HER GOING FORWARD AND ALL EYES WILL BE ON HER IN THE DAYS AND THE WEEKS AHEAD BECAUSE TRUMP IS BEATING HER BY HUGE NUMBERS RIGHT NOW IN SOUTH CAROLINA. AND IF THAT CONTINUES, IT’S JUST GOING TO BE A VERY BAD SIGN FOR HER.

>> SO HALEY’S SUPER PAC SAYS THAT IT’S PREPARED A LONG TERM BATTLE WITH TRUMP, BUT WILL SHE REALLY CONTINUE ON IF, YOU KNOW, SHE’S DEFEATED IN HER OWN HOME STATE? THAT’S A GOOD QUESTION. DEFEATED ALSO IS AN IMPORTANT WORD, RIGHT? BECAUSE I’M NOT CONVINCED THAT SHE’S EVEN GOING TO COMPETE.

SOUTH CAROLINA, IT’S YET TO BE SEEN BECAUSE NO ONE WANTS TO LOSE IN THEIR OWN HOME STATE. OF COURSE, WE’LL HAVE TO SEE HOW THE NUMBERS SHAPE UP FOR THE NEXT COUPLE OF WEEKS. IT JUST DOESN’T MATTER, THOUGH, HOW MANY BILLIONAIRES AND KIDS, FRANKLY, ARE STILL BACKING YOU. I MEAN, SHE LIKELY WANTS

A POLITICAL FUTURE. SHE’S 52 YEARS OLD. SHE MIGHT BE THINKING ABOUT 2028. AND SO I’M CURIOUS IF SHE EVEN CONTINUES MAKES IT TO THIS SOUTH CAROLINA PRIMARY. ALL RIGHT. WELL, SOME GOOD NEWS FOR JOE BIDEN, RIGHT? THE PRESIDENT BEING ENDORSED NOW BY THE UAW AFTER HIS WIN LAST NIGHT.

HOW SIGNIFICANT, SIGNIFICANT IS THIS IF YOU’RE A SUPPORTER? IT IS VERY SIGNIFICANT. I MEAN, LOOK, HE HAS DESCRIBED HIMSELF AS THE MOST PRO-UNION PRESIDENT IN HISTORY. HE WAS EVEN OUT ON THE PICKET LINE WITH AUTOWORKERS LAST FALL . AND THIS ENDORSEMENT COULD BE CRITICAL IN STATES LIKE MICHIGAN.

IT IS A BIG SWING STATE. HE WON THAT LAST SIGN AND HE’S ARGUABLY VOTING THERE RIGHT NOW IN THE STATE, HAS 200,000 ARAB AND MUSLIM VOTERS AND A LOT OF THEM ARE JUST REALLY NOT HAPPY WITH SOME OF THE WAYS HE’S DEALING WITH THE SITUATION IN THE MIDDLE EAST HERE.

>> ALL RIGHT, ZOHREEN SHAH WE’LL FOLLOW IT. ALL RIGHT, ALONG WITH YOU. THANK YOU. WELL, MILLIONS OF ARE ON ALERT NOW IN THE PATH OF EXTREME WEATHER. FLOOD RAVAGED SAN DIEGO IS STILL PICKING UP PIECES FROM DAYS OF TORRENTIAL RAIN. THE NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE CONFIRMING THAT IT HAD ITS

FOURTH WETTEST DAY ON RECORD THIS WEEK. AND SAN DIEGO’S MAYOR SAYING IT’S GOING TO TAKE MONTHS TO CLEAN UP. THEN THERE’S HEAVY RAIN SLAMMING PARTS OF TEXAS. FLOOD WARNINGS THERE IN EFFECT IN THE EASTERN PART OF THAT STATE. EXTREME WEATHER COULD ALSO BRING DAMAGING WINDS AND POSSIBLE TORNADOES IN THE SOUTH.

METEOROLOGIST MILE THEODORE CONTINUES TO TRACK FORECASTS FOR US. SAMARRA AND TO THINK HERE IN YOUR HOMETOWN OF SAN DIEGO. >> THEY’VE BEEN KEEPING RECORDS SINCE 50, SO THAT IS REALLY PROLIFIC. ALL RIGHT. SO HERE’S THE DEAL. A LOT GOING ON. IF YOU’RE JUST TUNING IN, LET ME BRING YOU UP TO SPEED.

WE HAVE THIS BIG FLOOD THREAT RIGHT NOW, FOUR STATES LINING THE GULF OF MEXICO FROM CORPUS CHRISTI TO HOUSTON ALL THE WAY TO KNOXVILLE, TENNESSEE, IN ATLANTA. THERE WE COULD SEE THUNDERSTORMS THAT ALSO BRING DAMAGING WINDS AND MAYBE AN ISOLATED TORNADO OR TWO. SOMETHING WATCH FOR THE BIG WIDESPREAD THREAT IS A

SIGNIFICANT FLASH FLOODING THAT COULD OCCUR IN ALEXANDRA IN NEW ORLEANS, LOUISIANA, JACKSON, MISSISSIPPI, 3 TO 8 INCHES COMING DOWN VERY QUICKLY. NOW, WHAT ABOUT THE NORTHERN PART OF THIS STORM. OKAY. WE’RE GOING TO SEGMENT THIS STORM. WE HAVE THE SOUTHERN PORTION BRINGING THE FLOODS TO THE SOUTHEAST AND THE RAIN IN THE NORTHEAST.

BUT THIS MORNING WE SAW SNOW. SO THAT’S NOW SWITCHING OVER TO RAIN TONIGHT FOR CITIES LIKE SYRACUSE DOWN WEST, STILL DEALING WITH SHOWERS AS. THE GOOD NEWS IS DOWN TOWARDS LOS ANGELES AND SAN DIEGO DRY. BUT FARTHER NORTH, 3 TO 5 INCHES FROM SEATTLE TO PORTLAND. CHECK THIS OUT, FRIDAY,

JANUARY 6, WE HAVE AN ACTIVE JET STREAM GETTING GOING FROM JAPAN TO THE U.S. IS THAT GOING TO DO BY FEBRUARY 2ND? NEXT WEEK, FRIDAY, HEAVY RAIN IS SLAMMING INTO SOUTHERN CALIFORNIA. REALLY, THE ENTIRE WEST COAST THERE. AND WE’RE LOOKING AT THIS POSTURING TO BE A VERY SIGNIFICANT FLOODING EVENT FRIDAY.

IN FACT, BY THE END OF NEXT WEEK, LOOKING AT THE CLIMATOLOGICAL OUTLOOK, MUCH WETTER THAN NORMAL FOR THOSE LIVING ON THE WEST COAST. AND OF COURSE, WE ARE ANTICIPATING VERY WARM CONDITIONS WHERE ARE. KYRA. LOW SEVENTIES BY FRIDAY. ALL RIGHT. VERY EXCITED THAT. >> YES, I KNOW.

I HOPE MY HOMETOWN OF SAN DIEGO DRIES OUT. BUT AT THE SAME TIME, VERY EXCITED ABOUT THE WARMER TEMPS HERE IN OUR NATION’S CAPITAL, SAMARRA. THANK YOU. SO A MINNESOTA STATE TROOPER IS BEING CHARGED IN CONNECTION WITH THE DEADLY SHOOTING OF A BLACK MAN DURING A TRAFFIC STOP .

STATE OFFICIALS SAY THAT AFTER MONTHS OF REVIEWING THIS CASE, THEY ARE CHARGING RYAN LUNGREN WITH MULTIPLE CHARGES, INCLUDING SECOND DEGREE MURDER FOR THE SHOOTING THAT KILLED RICKY COBB SECOND. OUR ALEX PEREZ IS FOLLOWING THE STORY FOR US. IT’S THIS HOUR. >> SO, ALEX, WHAT ARE YOU LEARNING YET?

KARA, THAT TROOPER HAS ALSO BEEN CHARGED WITH SECOND DEGREE MANSLAUGHTER AND FIRST DEGREE ASSAULT. NOW, REFRESH OUR MEMORIES ON THIS CASE. THIS ALL UNFOLDED BACK JULY FIRST OF 2023, THE EARLY MORNING HOURS. TROOPERS SAY THEY INITIALLY PULLED COBB OVER BECAUSE HIS TAIL WERE OUT. BUT ONCE THEY RAN HIS INFORMATION,

THEY DETERMINED THAT A NEIGHBORING WAS ACTUALLY LOOKING TO SPEAK WITH HIM ON AN ACCUSATION HE VIOLATED A DOMESTIC ORDER OF PROTECTION. THINGS ESCALATED WHEN COBB WAS ASKED TO STEP OUT OF THE CAR. HE REFUSED TO DO SO. EVENTUALLY, HE WAS SHOT BY THAT TROOPER AND HE DIED. NOW, AUTHORITIES BEEN

INVESTIGATING THIS FOR SEVERAL MONTHS. AND THESE ARE THE CHARGES THAT FAMILY HAS BEEN CALLING FOR SINCE THIS SHOOTING OCCURRED. NOW, IN A STATEMENT, AN ATTORNEY FOR THE SAYS THAT THE COUNTY ATTORNEY THERE IN HENNEPIN COUNTY, MINNEAPOLIS, IS OUT OF CONTROL. THAT IS THE QUOTE, THE ATTORNEY FOR THE TROOPER AND THEN

THEIR OWN. THE FAMILY OF RICKY COBB SAYS THAT THESE CHARGES ARE THE FIRST STEP TOWARDS CLOSURE AND JUSTICE. IF CONVICTED, THIS TROOPER COULD FACE 10 TO 15 YEARS BEHIND BARS KYRA. ALEX PEREZ, THANKS FOR THE UPDATE. ALSO DEVELOPING THIS HOUR, SIX PEOPLE HAVE BEEN FOUND DEAD IN A REMOTE DESERT AREA

OF CALIFORNIA. THE BODIES WERE FOUND NEAR SAN BERNARDINO COUNTY AND COMMUNITY OF EL MIRAGE. AUTHORITIES SAY THAT A MASSIVE INVESTIGATION IS NOW UNDERWAY. AND OUR WILL REEVE IS IN CALIFORNIA THIS HOUR FOLLOWING THE DEVELOPING DETAILS. SO, WILL, WHAT MORE DO WE KNOW ABOUT INVESTIGATION AT THIS POINT? >> WELL, GOOD AFTERNOON, KYRA.

THIS HAPPENED ABOUT 90 MILES NORTHEAST OF LOS IN A DESOLATE AREA. AND THE AERIAL FOOTAGE SHOWS GRISLY SCENE. TWO VEHICLES PARKED NEAR THESE ,THE WINDOWS BLOWN OUT. FIVE BODIES FOUND LAST NIGHT WITH GUNSHOT WOUNDS. A SIXTH DISCOVERED THIS MORNING . THE FBI AND ATF ARE NOT INVESTIGATING, BUT LOCAL SAN BERNARDINO COUNTY

AUTHORITIES ARE INVESTIGATING THIS AS A HOMICIDE. AS YET, IT IS UNCLEAR WHO THESE PEOPLE WERE OR WHY THEY WERE KILLED. BUT CERTAINLY A GRIM SCENE THAT WILL BE INVESTIGATED CAROL. OKAY. WE’LL FOLLOW THE INVESTIGATION ALONG WITH YOU. WILL APPRECIATE IT. SO PRESSURE MOUNTING ON ISRAELI PRIME MINISTER BENJAMIN

NETANYAHU AS THE IN GAZA IS BRINGING HIGH COSTS AND FEW OPERATIONAL SUCCESSES HOSTAGE. FAMILY MEMBERS CONTINUE TO PROTEST OUTSIDE HIS HOME AS NEW VIDEO IS NOW SHOWING RELATIVES AND FRIENDS OF THOSE HOSTAGES BLOCKING AID TRUCKS FROM CROSSING INTO GAZA. MEMORIALS BEGIN. OUR CHIEF NATIONAL CORRESPONDENT, MATT GUTMAN. SO, MATT, THE PRESSURE CLEARLY

BUILDING HERE. GIVE US MORE INFORMATION. WHAT DO YOU KNOW ABOUT WHAT THESE ARE INTENT ON DOING? YOU KNOW, THE PRESSURE, KYRA, HAS BEEN FROM ALMOST THE VERY START AND IT HAS MOUNTED AND INCREASED TO THE POINT THAT BRINGING THE HOSTAGES HOME IS LIKELY THE MOST POWERFUL ON NETANYAHU RIGHT NOW.

BUT HE HAS THIS OTHER PUSH, WHICH TO DEFEAT HAMAS IN SOME WAY, WHATEVER THAT MEANS. AND THESE TWO ISRAELI OFFICIALS TELL ME, ARE COMPETING. SO IT’S A BIG PROBLEM FOR HIM. THE ONLY WAY THAT WE KNOW AND THAT HE KNOWS THAT THEY CAN ACTUALLY RELEASE THE HOSTAGES IS BY NEGOTIATING SOME SORT

OF CEASE FIRE WITH HAMAS. OTHERWISE, THEY’RE NOT GOING TO GIVE THEM UP. IT’S TOO DIFFICULT TO. TRY TO EXTRACT THEM THROUGH SPECIAL FORCES AT THIS POINT. THEY HAVEN’T REALLY RESCUED A SINGLE PERSON SINCE, I THINK ,TWO MONTHS AGO. SO THE PRESSURE IS MOUNTING. THE QUESTION IS, IS HE GOING

TO DO AND WHAT KIND OF DEAL IS HE GOING TO ALLOW HIMSELF TO ENTER INTO? THE ISRAELI CABINET HAS BEEN FIELDING A BUNCH OF THESE CEASE FIRE PROPOSALS. THERE IS NOW PRETTY MUCH CONSTANT NEGOTIATION. BRAD MCGURK, U.S. SPECIAL ENVOY, IS IN REGION. HE’S BEEN BOUNCING BETWEEN EGYPT AND QATAR, TRYING

TO HAMMER SOMETHING OUT. BUT AN ISRAELI OFFICIAL TELLS US THEY ARE STILL FAR FROM A DEAL KYRA. SO, I MEAN, LET’S JUST ABOUT BENJAMIN NETANYAHU. HE IS NOT BACK DOWN AT ALL. HE THAT ISRAEL CONTINUED, WE’LL CONTINUE TO FIGHT UNTIL HAMAS IS JUST COMPLETELY WIPED OUT. WELL, THE QUESTION IS, WHAT IS

THE GOAL? RIGHT. AND WHAT DOES MEAN TO DEFEAT HAMAS? AND I THINK THAT THAT HAS BEEN CHANGING. IT’S BEEN MORPHING REALLY FOR THE PAST SIX WEEKS NOW. I SPOKE A VERY SENIOR ISRAELI OFFICIAL OVER THE WEEKEND AND ANOTHER JUST YESTERDAY. AND THE BOTTOM LINE IS, IT’S NOT DESTROY HAMAS.

IT’S NO LONGER KILL EVERY SINGLE HAMAS OPERATIVE. THEY’RE NOW TALKING DISMANTLING IT AS A MILITARY ORGANIZATION, COMPLETELY DEMILITARIZING IT, AND EVEN EXILING ITS LEADERS. A MONTH OR TWO AGO, IT WOULDN’T HAVE BEEN ENOUGH. YOU WOULD HAVE HAD TO HAVE SAID, WE WILL KILL THEM ALL WILL EXECUTE THEM.

NOW THEY’RE TALKING ABOUT EXILE ,SOME SORT OF OTHER OFF RAMP THAT IS DIFFERENT FROM THE DEFEAT. SO THIS THIS COMPLETE AND ABSOLUTE HAS BEEN CHANGING. BUT THE THING THAT NETANYAHU REALLY NEEDS MOST RIGHT NOW IS TO BRING THE HOSTAGES HOME. THAT IS SOMETHING THAT ON ALL OF ISRAELIS AND IT’S REALLY

THE ONE UNIFYING FACTOR EVERYBODY CAN GET AROUND AT THIS POINT IN THIS WAR KYRA . >> WELL, YOU’VE TALKED ABOUT HOW ISRAEL EXTENDED THIS OFFER OF A TWO MONTH CEASE FIRE THAT HAMAS ACTUALLY REJECTED. >> SO, I MEAN, WHAT DOES A NEW HOSTAGE NEGOTIATION EVEN LOOK LIKE? IT’S INCREDIBLY COMPLEX.

AND I HONESTLY I DON’T THINK ANYBODY REALLY KNOWS THE INTRICACIES OF WHAT’S GOING ON. I MEAN, IF WE TAKE WHAT HAPPENED IN NOVEMBER AS AN EXAMPLE, THAT WAS JUST A SMALL SLIVER, RIGHT. HAMAS WAS PRETTY WILLING TO PART WITH THE WOMEN AND CHILDREN. IT WAS A BAD LOOK.

IT WAS MUCH MORE TO KEEP THEM. HAVING CHILDREN IN CAPTIVITY IS COSTLY. IT’S DIFFICULT FOR THE CAPTORS THEMSELVES. IT’S JUST VERY PROBLEMATIC FOR THEM. BUT TO KEEP THEM GROWN MEN, ADULT MEN, WOMEN AND SOLDIERS IS A DIFFERENT MATTER. AND THESE ARE THE LAST THAT HAMAS HAS IN GAZA.

SO THEY’RE HOLDING ON TO THEM VERY TIGHTLY. WHAT THEY’RE LOOKING FOR BROADLY IS FOR A COMPLETE OF VIOLENCE FOR ISRAEL TO WITHDRAW COMPLETELY FROM THE GAZA STRIP. ISRAEL SAYS THAT’S NOT GOING TO HAPPEN. SO THE QUESTION NOW, HOW LONG THE CEASE FIRE THAT BOTH SIDES CAN AGREE TO WHILE THEY GET

THE HOSTAGES RELEASED. AND THAT SENIOR ISRAELI SOURCE TELLING ME THAT THERE IS NO WAY THAT YES, SINWAR, WHO IS THE HEAD OF HAMAS GAZA AND SAID TO BE THE MASTERMIND BEHIND OCTOBER 7TH. THERE’S NO HE’S GOING TO GIVE UP ALL OF THE HOSTAGES. THIS SOURCE SAYS THAT HE’S

TO KEEP AT LEAST SOME OF THEM AS HIS INSURANCE CARD KYRA. ALL RIGHT. MATT GUTMAN, APPRECIATE YOUR REPORTING AS ALWAYS. WELL, UKRAINE NOW CONFIRMS THAT A RUSSIAN MILITARY PLANE HAS GONE DOWN NEAR ITS BORDER WITH RUSSIA. THE RUSSIAN DEFENSE MINISTER SAYING THAT THE PLANE WAS ACTUALLY CARRYING 74 PEOPLE,

65 OF THEM UKRAINIAN PRISONERS WAR. UKRAINE SAYS IT CAN’T CONFIRM HOW MANY PEOPLE WERE ON OR THEIR IDENTITIES. BUT UKRAINE’S MILITARY INTELLIGENCE IS TELLING ABC THAT THE INCIDENT MAY AMOUNT TO DELIBERATE ACTIONS BY RUSSIA AIMED AT ENDANGERING THE LIVES AND SAFETY OF PRISONERS. COMING UP, WE’RE HEADING TO CONNECTICUT.

THE NEVER BEFORE SEEN EVIDENCE IN THE CASE AGAINST MICHELLE TROCONIS. WHEN WE COME BACK, WHENEVER A NEWS BREAKS, WE ARE HERE IN ISRAEL, A NATION AT AFTER THAT BRUTAL SURPRISE ATTACK BY HAMAS ON THE GROUND, UKRAINE. >> REPORTING FROM LEWISTON, MAINE, THE SCENE OF A HORRIFIC MASS SHOOTING.

IN THE MORNING. AMERICA THIS MORNING, AMERICA’S NUMBER ONE EARLY MORNING NEWS ON ABC NEWS. >> WHY DO SO MANY PEOPLE START THEIR DAY HERE? FROM ABC NEWS? >> THIS IS “START HERE” TO BE IN THE MORNING AND GET A DIFFERENT TAKE ON THE DAY’S TOP STORIES. A LOT OF NEWS TODAY.

SO LET’S GET TO IT LISTEN NOW TO THE DAILY NEWS PODCAST HONORED WITH FOR EDWARD OUR MURROW AWARDS AND SEE WHY THE NEW YORK TIMES CALLS IT A NEWS PODCAST WORTH LISTENING TO START HERE ABC NEWS MAKE IT YOUR DAILY FIRST LISTEN. NOW THAT’S A PART OF THE STORY

THAT YOU DIDN’T SEE COMING. >> WHEREVER YOU GET YOUR PODCASTS, START HERE HERE . >> SO GLAD YOU’RE STREAMING WITH US. WELL, NEW THIS HOUR. A JURY HAS BEEN SEATED IN THE TRIAL OF JENNIFER CRUMBLY. SHE’S FACING FOUR COUNTS OF INVOLUNTARY MANSLAUGHTER AFTER HER SON OPENED FIRE AT HIS MICHIGAN HIGH SCHOOL,

KILLING FOUR PEOPLE AND WOUNDING SEVERAL OTHERS. >> JENNIFER CRUMBLY IS IN COURT, GIVING HER FOR GIVING HER SON TO THAT GUN. OUR TREVOR AULT IS COVERING IT ALL FOR US AND HAS THE LATEST ON WHAT FAMILY. >> JENNIFER KYRA PHILLIPS HUSBAND JAMES CRUMBLY IS ALSO FACING THOSE SAME FOR INVOLUNTARY MANSLAUGHTER CHARGES.

HIS TRIAL WILL BE HELD AFTER IT’S SCHEDULED FOR MARCH RIGHT NOW. BUT TO OUR KNOWLEDGE, THIS IS THE FIRST INSTANCE OF PARENTS, A SCHOOL SHOOTER BEING CHARGED IN THE UNITED STATES AND EVIDENCE AGAINST THESE PARENTS IS PRETTY SUBSTANTIAL, ACCORDING THE PROSECUTION, IN TERMS OF THE MANY MISSED WARNING SIGNS AND FLAGS.

FOR EXAMPLE, THEY CITE THE FACT THAT THEY BOUGHT A WEAPON THAT THE PROSECUTION SAYS WAS FOR THEIR 15 YEAR OLD SON. THEIR SON HAS TESTIFIED WHEN HE PLED GUILTY THAT THAT GUN WAS KEPT UNLOCKED AND THEN HE THEN USED IT TO CARRY OUT THE SHOOTING TO KILL SEVERAL OF HIS CLASSMATES.

THAT DAY OF THE SHOOTING, THESE PARENTS WERE CALLED INTO THE SCHOOL BECAUSE A TEACHER HAD DRAWINGS FROM THEIR SON AND THEY HAD A GUN THAT HAD A PERSON BEING SHOT THAT SAID, THE THOUGHTS WON’T STOP, HELP ME. AND THOSE PARENTS, ACCORDING TO PROSECUTORS, DECLINED TO TAKE THEIR SON HOME THAT DAY.

AND THEN THE SHOOTING HAPPENED A FEW HOURS AFTER. AND THEN, ACCORDING TO PROSECUTORS, WHEN THE PARENTS LEARNED A SHOOTING HAD HAPPENED AT THE SCHOOL, THEY DIDN’T KNOW WHO HAD CARRIED IT OUT. THEY IMMEDIATELY TEXTED THEIR SON, ETHAN, DON’T DO IT. PROSECUTORS WILL LIKELY USE THAT AS EVIDENCE.

THESE PARENTS KNEW THIS WAS A POSSIBILITY. OF COURSE, THE ATTORNEYS FOR JENNIFER CRUMBLEY HAD SAID THEY NEVER KNEW HE WAS CAPABLE OF THIS AND THEY WOULD HAVE STOPPED HIM HAD THEY KNOWN. AND IT IS NOT ILLEGAL TO BE A BAD PARENT, BUT THERE’S ABSOLUTELY CAN BE A PRECEDENT SETTING CASE IN THE

UNITED STATES, KYRA ALL RIGHT, TREVOR, THANKS SO MUCH. AND NOW THAT THE JURY HAS BEEN SELECTED OPENING STATEMENTS IN THAT TRIAL ARE EXPECTED TO BEGIN ON THURSDAY IN ANOTHER COURTROOM, THIS TIME IN STAMFORD, CONNECTICUT. MICHELLE TROCONIS, TRIAL HAS ENTERED ITS NINTH DAY OF TESTIMONY. TROCONIS IS ACCUSED OF CONSPIRING WITH HER LATE

BOYFRIEND TO COVER UP THE MURDER OF HIS ESTRANGED WIFE. SHE’S PLEADED NOT GUILTY TO CONSPIRACY TO COMMIT MURDER EVIDENCE AND ALSO HINDERING THE PROSECUTION. PROSECUTORS FOCUSED ON SHOWING THE JURY WHAT LIKE STAINS LINKED TO THE CASE SEIZED TRASH BINS IN THE AREA. INVESTIGATORS SAY THIS IS WHERE TROCONIS AND HER EX WERE

ON THE NIGHT THAT JENNIFER FARBER DULOS WENT MISSING. LET’S BRING IN OUR LEGAL CONTRIBUTOR AND TRIAL ATTORNEY AND OF COME HOME SAFE BRIAN BUCKMIRE BRYANT. BASED ON THE EVIDENCE HERE. JUST TALK TO US ABOUT WHAT THE JURY NEEDS TO WEIGH. >> WELL, THE JURY HAS TO WEIGH HOW MUCH KNOWLEDGE DID

THE CHARGE RECORDERS HAVE IN THE DISAPPEARANCE AND MURDER OR JENNIFER DULOS. THEY’VE GOT TO LOOK AT, AS YOU POINTED OUT, THE EVIDENCE THAT THEY SAW YESTERDAY, THE ZIP TIES, THE BLOODSTAINED CLOTHES, THE WHITE T-SHIRT, THE THAT WAS ALL SCATTERED THROUGHOUT HARTFORD, CONNECTICUT, IN MAY OF 2019 THAT THE PROSECUTION IS SAYING

WAS DUMPED BY PHOTOS DULOS. NOW, FOR THE DEFENSE, I THINK THE ARGUMENT HERE, FOR LACK OF A BETTER TERM IS TO SAY THAT HER HANDS WERE DIRTY BUT NOT BLOODY, THAT SHE MIGHT HAVE ACCOMPANIED PHOTOS DULOS THROUGHOUT THIS KIND OF DUMPING OF OF ITEMS. BUT SHE DIDN’T HAVE THE

KNOWLEDGE THAT WHAT HE WAS DUMPING OR WHAT HE HAD DONE TO HIS ESTRANGED WIFE DAYS. >> SO DO OR DIE BY SUICIDE AFTER BEING CHARGED HIS WIFE’S DISAPPEARANCE. BUT IN A NOTE HE SAID THAT TROCONIS HAD NOTHING TO DO WITH THE DISAPPEARANCE OF HIS WIFE. IS THAT GOING TO PLAY A ROLE

IN TRIAL, YOU THINK? >> SO, SO FAR, WE HAVEN’T HEARD ABOUT EVIDENCE COMING IN AS YET. AND SO IT’S NOT NECESSARILY WHAT YOU KNOW, BUT WHAT YOU CAN PROVE. >> AND WHAT I MEAN BY THAT IS THAT NO INSANITY WE CALL HEARSAY. IT’S AN OUT-OF-COURT STATEMENT BECAUSE HE SAID IT OUTSIDE

OF THE COURT MEANT TO PROVE THE TRUTH, THAT HE’S ASSERTING THAT SHE AND MICHELLE TROCONIS WERE NOT GUILTY OF THIS. NOW, THERE ARE EXCEPTIONS TO HEARSAY LIKE A DYING DECLARATION AND THE DEFENSE CAN ARTFULLY ARGUE THAT THIS IS THAT THESE IS THE FINAL WORDS OF A DYING MAN, THAT THAT

SHOULD BE CONSIDERED TO BE TRUE AND THAT MIGHT COME IN TO THE COURT. BUT I THINK IT’LL BE VERY FORWARD BASED ON THE FACTS OF HOW CONNECTICUT WORKS, THROUGH DIANE DECLARATIONS AND WHETHER OR NOT THIS IS TRUTHFUL, THIS COULD BE A MAN’S LAST LINE AFFECTING THE PROSECUTORS WILL ARGUE,

BEFORE HE TAKES HIS OWN LIFE. ALL RIGHT, BRIAN BLACKMORE, THANK YOU. >> SO COMING UP ON THE RUN, THE ONGOING SEARCH FOR TWO ESCAPED INMATES IN ARKANSAS, ONE OF THEM ACCUSED OF MURDER. STAY WITH US. >> TONIGHT, AFTER THE GOP FACE OFF WHERE THE RACE FOR THE WHITE HOUSE STANDS, PLUS,

WE BEGIN WITH THE CEO OF BOEING UNDER FIRE NOW FACING, LAWMAKERS ON CAPITOL HILL. THAT MEETING COMING AMID GROWING SCRUTINY AFTER A SERIES

OF INCIDENTS INVOLVING BOEING JETS, INCLUDING THAT MIDAIR BLOWOUT ON AN ALASKA AIRLINES 737 MAX, NINE EARLIER THIS MONTH. THE FAA IS ALSO INVESTIGATING A BOEING PLANE IN ATLANTA JUST OVER THE WEEKEND WHERE A TIRE ACTUALLY OFF A DELTA FLIGHT JUST BEFORE TAKEOFF. LEADING US OFF THIS HOUR ARE ABC NEWS TRANSPORTATION

CORRESPONDENT GIO BENITEZ. ALSO OUR JAY O’BRIEN, WHO FOLLOWS EVERYTHING ON THE HILL FOR US. GINA, LET’S START WITH THE LATEST, THE MEETING. WHAT DO WE KNOW? SO WE KNOW THAT HE MET SENATORS CANTWELL, WARNER AND SENATOR SULLIVAN OF ALASKA AS WELL. I WAS ABLE TO SPEAK TO SENATOR SULLIVAN AFTERWARDS, AND HE

BASICALLY SAID, LISTEN, THE BIGGEST ISSUE HERE IS SAFETY. WHEN ARE THESE MAX NINES GOING TO GET BACK IN THE AIR AFTER THAT DOOR PLUG FLEW OFF THE ALASKA AIRLINES FLIGHT. WE’RE TOLD HE TOLD SULLIVAN THAT THIS WILL BE A MATTER OF DAYS, NOT WEEKS, BUT DEFINITELY NOT MONTHS. THAT’S WHAT HE SAID.

AND THAT IS CERTAINLY HOPE THAT THIS IS NOT EXTENDED INTO A MONTH LONG SITUATION WHERE THEY ARE INSPECTING THESE. BUT THE TRUTH IS THAT RIGHT NOW ,AIRLINES STILL DO NOT HAVE ANY OFFICIAL INSPECTION INSTRUCTIONS FROM THE FAA OR BOEING. >> SO JAKE, WHY IS SENATOR MARK WARNER INVOLVED IN THE MEETING NOW?

AND WHAT HAVE WE HEARD FROM OTHER LAWMAKERS ABOUT THE ALASKA AIRLINES INCIDENT THAT STARTED ALL OF THIS? >> YEAH, AND SENATOR WARNER IS INVOLVED, IT SEEMS, BECAUSE HE’S NOT INVOLVED IN REGULATING THE AIRLINE INDUSTRY PER SAY, WITH HIS COMMITTEE ASSIGNMENTS ON THE HILL. BUT HE’S THE SENATOR FROM VIRGINIA.

AND BOEING HAS A BIG FOOTPRINT IN THE STATE OF VIRGINIA. IN THE OTHER NAMES THAT JOE JUST LISTED, THE TEA LEAVES AND ALL THAT, IS THAT THAT’S A MURDERER’S ROW OF PEOPLE ON THE COMMERCE COMMITTEE. THE SENATE COMMERCE COMMITTEE HAS BEEN DEEPLY INVOLVED IN THE LAST FEW YEARS IN REGULATING

THE AIRLINE INDUSTRY. THEY’VE EXPRESSED THAT THEY WANT TO HOLD HEARINGS, AS YOU SAID, KYRA, ON THAT ALASKA AIRLINE INCIDENT, PARTICULARLY WHAT THE FAA INSPECTIONS HAVE BEEN LIKE AT, BOEING MANUFACTURING FACILITIES. >> SO, JOE, SINCE THE ALASKA INCIDENT, MAX, ON PLANES HAVE BEEN GROUNDED. WHAT’S THE LATEST WITH THE

INVESTIGATION AND DO WE KNOW ANYTHING ABOUT WHAT WHAT AIRLINES ARE FINDING DURING THESE INSPECTIONS THAT APPARENTLY, AS YOU US EARLIER, HAVEN’T STARTED YET BECAUSE THEY REALLY NEED TO LAY OUT THE GROUND RULES, RIGHT? >> RIGHT. SO BASICALLY, KYRA, RIGHT NOW, ALL OF THE AIRLINES ARE DOING WHAT THEY CAN, LOOKING AT WHAT

THEY CAN AND WHAT THEIR OWN MECHANICS CAN THINK OF. BUT THEY CAN’T DO THE KIND OF INSPECTION THAT’S NEEDED FOR THE FAA TO ALLOW THEM TO FLY THE MAX, BECAUSE THOSE INSTRUCTIONS, THEY ARE STILL WAITING ON THEM. BUT ALASKA CEO, HE BASICALLY SAID WE HAVE MANY, MANY BOLTS

THAT THEY FOUND THAT WERE LOOSE ON THEIR DOOR PLUG. WE KNOW AS WELL THAT UNITED HAS ALSO SAID THAT THEY FOUND DOOR CLUBS THAT HAD SOME LOOSE BOLTS. SO THEY’RE GOING TO BE LOOKING AT THAT BECAUSE THAT’S VERY, VERY CONCERNING. AND WHERE IS THAT COMING FROM? DID HAPPEN DURING

THE MANUFACTURING AND THE INSTALLATION OR LATER. GOT IT. JOHN JAY, WE WILL FOLLOW THIS, OF COURSE, TO THE VERY END. >> APPRECIATE IT. SO A DOUBLE DIGIT VICTORY FOR DONALD TRUMP, BUT NIKKI HALEY REFUSES TO GIVE UP AFTER YESTERDAY’S NEW HAMPSHIRE PRIMARY, EVEN THOUGH THIS IS THE FORMER PRESIDENT’S

SECOND MAJOR WIN IN HIS BID TO BE THE GOP NOMINEE. FORMER SOUTH CAROLINA GOVERNOR SAYS SHE’S VOWING TO STILL FIGHT. NOW TAKING RACE TO HER HOME STATE, THE SOUTH CAROLINA PRIMARY IS EXACTLY ONE MONTH AWAY NOW. OUR ZOHREEN SHAH IS ON THE TRAIL THERE IN NEW HAMPSHIRE, JOINS US NOW FOR MORE.

SO SERENE, TRUMP MAY HAVE WON, BUT NIKKI HALEY DID OVERPERFORM EXPECTATIONS MANY WAYS. >> I’M NOT SURE OVERPERFORM IS THE RIGHT WORD. I MEAN, TRUMP LOSS VOTERS BY 24 POINTS AND THAT IS VERY WEAK GOING INTO A GENERAL ELECTION. BUT HALEY WAS SUPPOSED TO ALWAYS PERFORM WELL INDEPENDENTS ALMOST TO THE

POINT WHERE SHE WAS RELIANT ON THEM. I MEAN THE STATE IS 40% INDEPENDENT AND THERE’S NOT THAT SAME SYSTEM UP IN OTHER STATES. SO, YOU KNOW, SOMETIMES YOU CAN BE AN INDEPENDENT AND VOTE LAST MINUTE ON THE REPUBLICAN BALLOT. SO THE MATH GETS REALLY HARD FOR HER GOING FORWARD AND ALL

EYES WILL BE ON HER IN THE DAYS AND WEEKS AHEAD. BECAUSE TRUMP IS BEATING HER BY HUGE NUMBERS RIGHT NOW IN SOUTH CAROLINA. AND IF THAT CONTINUES, IT’S JUST GOING TO BE A VERY BAD SIGN FOR. >> SO HALEY’S PAC SAYS THAT IT’S PREPARED FOR A LONG TERM BATTLE WITH TRUMP,

BUT WILL SHE REALLY CONTINUE ON? YOU KNOW, SHE’S DEFEATED IN HER OWN HOME STATE. I MEAN, THAT’S A GOOD QUESTION. DEFEATED ALSO IS AN IMPORTANT WORD, RIGHT? BECAUSE I’M NOT CONVINCED THAT SHE’S EVEN GOING TO COMPETE. SOUTH CAROLINA, THAT’S YET TO BE SEEN BECAUSE NO ONE WANTS

TO LOSE IN THEIR OWN HOME STATE. OF COURSE, WE’LL HAVE TO SEE HOW THE NUMBERS SHAPE UP FOR THE NEXT COUPLE OF WEEKS. AND IT JUST DOESN’T MATTER, THOUGH, HOW MANY BILLIONAIRES AND GROUPINGS, FRANKLY ARE STILL BACKING YOU. I MEAN, SHE LIKELY STILL WANTS A POLITICAL FUTURE, 52 YEARS OLD.

SHE MIGHT BE THINKING ABOUT 2028. AND SO I’M CURIOUS IF SHE EVEN CONTINUES AND MAKES IT TO THE SOUTH CAROLINA PRIMARY. >> ALL RIGHT. WELL, SOME NEWS FOR JOE BIDEN, RIGHT? THE PRESIDENT’S BEING ENDORSED NOW BY THE UAW AFTER HIS WIN LAST NIGHT. HOW HOW SIGNIFICANT, SIGNIFICANT IS THIS?

IF YOU’RE HIS SUPPORTER, IT IS VERY SIGNIFICANT. I MEAN, LOOK HERE, DESCRIBING STUFF AS THE MOST PRO-UNION PRESIDENT IN HISTORY. HE WAS EVEN OUT ON THE PICKET LINE WITH AUTOWORKERS LAST FALL. AND THIS ENDORSEMENT COULD BE CRITICAL IN STATES LIKE MICHIGAN. IT IS A BIG SWING STATE.

HE WON THAT LAST TIME AND HE’S ARGUABLY HURTING THERE RIGHT NOW. I MEAN, THE STATE HAS 200,000 ARAB AND MUSLIM VOTERS AND A LOT OF THEM ARE JUST REALLY HAPPY WITH SOME OF THE WAYS HE’S DEALING WITH THE SITUATION IN THE MIDDLE EAST HERE. ALL RIGHT, ZOHREEN SHAH.

WE’LL FOLLOW IT ALL RIGHT ALONG WITH YOU. THANK YOU. MILLIONS OF AMERICANS ON ALERT NOW IN THE PATH, EXTREME WEATHER. FLOOD RAVAGED SAN DIEGO IS STILL PICKING UP PIECES FROM DAYS OF TORRENTIAL RAIN. THE NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE CONFIRMING THAT IT HAD ITS FOURTH WETTEST DAY ON RECORD THIS WEEK AND SENDING THOSE

MAYORS SAYING GOING TO TAKE MONTHS TO CLEAN UP. THEN THERE’S HEAVY RAIN SLAMMING PARTS OF TEXAS. FLOOD WARNINGS THERE IN EFFECT IN THE EASTERN PART OF THAT STATE. EXTREME WEATHER COULD ALSO BRING DAMAGING WINDS AND POSSIBLE TORNADOES, THE SOUTH. OUR METEOROLOGIST, MY THEODORE CONTINUES TO TRACK FORECAST FOR US SAMARRA.

>> AND TO THINK HERE IN YOUR HOMETOWN, SAN DIEGO, THEY’VE BEEN KEEPING RECORDS SINCE 1850. SO THAT IS REALLY PROLIFIC. ALL RIGHT. SO HERE’S A DEAL. A LOT GOING ON. IF YOU’RE JUST TUNING IN, ME BRING YOU UP TO SPEED. WE HAVE THIS BIG FLOOD THREAT RIGHT NOW FOR STATES LINING

THE GULF OF MEXICO FROM CORPUS CHRISTI TO HOUSTON ALL THE WAY TO KNOXVILLE, TENNESSEE IN ATLANTA, THERE WE COULD SEE THUNDERSTORMS THAT ALSO BRING DAMAGING WINDS AND MAYBE AN ISOLATED TORNADO OR TWO. SOMETHING TO WATCH FOR. THE BIG WIDESPREAD THREAT IS A SIGNIFICANT FLASH FLOODING THAT COULD OCCUR. AND ALEXANDRA IN NEW ORLEANS,

LOUISIANA, JACKSON MISSISSIPPI, 3 TO 8 INCHES COMING DOWN VERY QUICKLY. >> NOW, WHAT ABOUT THE NORTHERN PART OF THE STORM? OKAY. WE’RE GOING TO SEGMENT THIS STORM. WE HAVE THE SOUTHERN PORTION BRINGING THE FLOODS TO THE SOUTHEAST AND THEN RAIN IN THE NORTHEAST. BUT EARLIER THIS MORNING, WE SAW SNOW.

SO THAT’S NOW SWITCHING OVER TO RAIN TONIGHT FOR CITIES LIKE SYRACUSE. NOW OUT WEST, STILL DEALING WITH SHOWERS. WELL. THE GOOD NEWS IS DOWN TOWARDS LOS ANGELES AND SAN DIEGO, DRY, BUT FARTHER, 3 TO 5 INCHES FROM SEATTLE TO PORTLAND. CHECK THIS OUT. FRIDAY, JANUARY 26. WE HAVE AN ACTIVE JET STREAM

GETTING GOING FROM JAPAN TO THE U.S. WHAT IS THAT GOING TO DO BY FEBRUARY 2ND, NEXT WEEK, FRIDAY, HEAVY RAIN IS SLAMMING INTO SOUTHERN CALIFORNIA. REALLY, THE ENTIRE WEST COAST THERE. AND WE’RE LOOKING AT THIS POSTURING TO BE A VERY SIGNIFICANT FLOODING EVENT NEXT FRIDAY. IN FACT, BY THE END OF NEXT

WEEK, LOOKING AT THE CLIMATOLOGY OUTLOOK, MUCH WETTER THAN NORMAL FOR THOSE LIVING ON THE WEST COAST. AND OF COURSE, WE ARE ANTICIPATING VERY WARM CONDITIONS WHERE ARE. KYRA. LOW SEVENTIES BY FRIDAY. EVERYBODY’S VERY EXCITED ABOUT THAT. YES, I KNOW. I HOPE MY HOMETOWN OF SAN DIEGO DRIES OUT.

BUT AT THE SAME TIME, VERY EXCITED ABOUT THE WARMER TEMPS HERE IN OUR NATION’S CAPITAL, SAMARA, YOU. SO A MINNESOTA STATE TROOPER IS BEING CHARGED IN CONNECTION WITH THE DEADLY SHOOTING OF A BLACK MAN DURING A TRAFFIC. STATE OFFICIALS SAY THAT AFTER MONTHS OF REVIEWING THIS CASE, THEY ARE CHARGING RYAN LUNDGREN

WITH MULTIPLE CHARGES, INCLUDING SECOND DEGREE MURDER FOR THE SHOOTING THAT KILLED RICKY COBB THE SECOND. OUR ALEX PEREZ IS FOLLOWING THE STORY FOR US. IT’S THIS HOUR. SO, ALEX, WHAT ARE YOU LEARNING ? YES, KARA, THAT TROOPER HAS ALSO BEEN CHARGED WITH SECOND DEGREE MANSLAUGHTER AND FIRST DEGREE ASSAULT.

NOW, LET’S REFRESH OUR MEMORIES ON THIS CASE. THIS ALL UNFOLDED BACK JULY 31ST OF 2023, THE EARLY MORNING HOURS TROOPERS SAY THEY INITIALLY PULLED COBB OVER BECAUSE HIS LIGHTS WERE OUT. BUT ONCE THEY RAN HIS INFORMATION, THEY DETERMINED THAT A NEIGHBORING COUNTY WAS ACTUALLY LOOKING TO SPEAK WITH HIM ON ACCUSATION THAT HE

VIOLATED A DOMESTIC ORDER OF PROTECTION. THINGS THEN ESCALATED WHEN COBB WAS ASKED TO STEP OF THE CAR AND HE REFUSED TO DO SO. EVENTUALLY, HE SHOT BY THAT TROOPER AND HE DIED. NOW, AUTHORITIES HAVE BEEN INVESTIGATING THIS FOR SEVERAL MONTHS. AND THESE ARE THE CHARGES THAT THE FAMILY HAS BEEN

CALLING FOR SINCE THIS SHOOTING OCCURRED. NOW, IN A STATEMENT, AN ATTORNEY FOR THE TROOPER SAYS THAT THE COUNTY ATTORNEY THERE IN HENNEPIN, MINNEAPOLIS, IS OUT OF CONTROL. THAT IS THE QUOTE FROM THE ATTORNEY FOR THE TROOPER AND THEN THEIR STATEMENT. THE FAMILY OF RICKY COBB SAYS THAT CHARGES ARE THE FIRST STEP

TOWARDS CLOSURE AND JUSTICE. IF CONVICTED, KYRA, THIS TROOPER COULD FACE 10 TO 15 YEARS BEHIND BARS KYRA. ALEX PEREZ, THANKS FOR THE UPDATE. ALSO DEVELOPING THIS HOUR, SIX PEOPLE HAVE BEEN FOUND DEAD IN A REMOTE DESERT AREA OF CALIFORNIA. THE BODIES WERE FOUND NEAR SAN BERNARDINO COUNTY AND THE COMMUNITY OF EL MIRAGE.

AUTHORITIES SAY THAT A MASSIVE INVESTIGATION IS NOW UNDERWAY. AND OUR WILL REEVE IS IN CALIFORNIA THIS HOUR FOLLOWING DEVELOPING DETAILS. SO, WILL, WHAT MORE DO WE KNOW ABOUT INVESTIGATION AT THIS POINT? >> WELL, GOOD AFTERNOON, KYRA. THIS HAPPENED ABOUT 90 MILES NORTHEAST OF LOS ANGELES IN A DESOLATE AREA.

AND THE AERIAL FOOTAGE SHOWS GRISLY SCENE. TWO VEHICLES PARKED NEAR THESE ,THE WINDOWS BLOWN OUT. FIVE BODIES FOUND LAST NIGHT WITH GUNSHOT WOUNDS. A SIXTH DISCOVERED THIS MORNING . CURRENTLY, THE FBI AND ATF ARE NOT INVESTIGATING, BUT LOCAL SAN BERNARDINO COUNTY AUTHORITIES ARE INVESTIGATING THIS AS A HOMICIDE.

AS YET, IT IS UNCLEAR WHO THESE PEOPLE WERE OR WHY THEY WERE KILLED, BUT CERTAINLY A GRIM SCENE THAT WILL BE INVESTIGATED CAROL. OKAY. WE’LL FOLLOW THE INVESTIGATION ALONG WITH YOU, WILL APPRECIATE IT. SO PRESSURE IS MOUNTING ON ISRAELI PRIME MINISTER BENJAMIN NETANYAHU. THE WAR IN GAZA IS BRINGING

HIGH COSTS AND FEW OPERATE SUCCESSES HOSTAGE. FAMILY MEMBERS CONTINUE TO PROTEST OUTSIDE HIS HOME AS NEW VIDEO IS NOW SHOWING RELATIVES AND FRIENDS OF THOSE HOSTAGES BLOCKING AID TRUCKS FROM CROSSING INTO GAZA. MEMORIALS BEGIN. OUR CHIEF NATIONAL CORRESPONDENT, MATT GUTMAN. SO, MATT, THE PRESSURE CLEARLY BUILDING HERE.

>> GIVE US MORE INFORMATION. WHAT DO YOU KNOW ABOUT WHAT THESE FAMILIES ARE INTENT ON DOING? YOU KNOW, THE PRESSURE, KYRA, HAS BEEN FROM ALMOST VERY START AND IT HAS MOUNTED AND INCREASED TO THE POINT THAT BRINGING THE HOSTAGES HOME IS LIKELY THE MOST POWERFUL ON NETANYAHU RIGHT NOW.

BUT HE HAS THIS OTHER PUSH, WHICH IS TO DEFEAT HAMAS IN SOME WAY, WHATEVER THAT MEANS. AND THESE ISRAELI OFFICIALS TELL ME, ARE COMPETING. SO IT’S A BIG PROBLEM FOR HIM. THE ONLY WAY THAT WE KNOW AND THAT HE KNOWS THAT CAN ACTUALLY RELEASE THE HOSTAGES IS BY NEGOTIATING SOME SORT

OF CEASE FIRE WITH HAMAS. OTHERWISE, THEY’RE NOT GOING TO GIVE THEM UP. IT’S TOO DIFFICULT TO TRY TO EXTRACT THEM THROUGH SPECIAL FORCES AT THIS POINT. THEY HAVEN’T REALLY RESCUED A SINGLE PERSON SINCE, I THINK, TWO MONTHS AGO. SO PRESSURE IS MOUNTING. THE QUESTION IS, WHAT IS

HE GOING TO DO AND WHAT KIND DEAL IS HE GOING TO ALLOW HIMSELF TO ENTER INTO? THE ISRAELI CABINET HAS BEEN FIELDING A BUNCH OF THESE CEASE FIRE PROPOSALS. THERE IS NOW PRETTY MUCH CONSTANT NEGOTIATION. BRAD, U.S. SPECIAL ENVOY, IS IN THE REGION. HE’S BEEN BOUNCING BETWEEN EGYPT AND QATAR TRYING

TO HAMMER SOMETHING OUT. BUT AN ISRAELI OFFICIAL TELLS US THEY ARE STILL FAR FROM A DEAL. SO, I MEAN, LET’S JUST TALK ABOUT BENJAMIN NETANYAHU. HE HAS NOT BACKED DOWN AT ALL. HE SAYS THAT ISRAEL WILL CONTINUE. WE’LL CONTINUE TO FIGHT UNTIL HAMAS IS JUST COMPLETELY WIPED OUT.

WELL, THE QUESTION IS, WHAT IS THE GOAL? RIGHT. AND WHAT DOES IT MEAN TO DEFEAT HAMAS? AND I THINK THAT THAT BEEN CHANGING. IT’S BEEN MORPHING REALLY FOR THE PAST SIX WEEKS NOW. I SPOKE TO A VERY SENIOR ISRAELI OFFICIAL OVER THE WEEKEND AND ANOTHER ONE JUST YESTERDAY.

AND THE BOTTOM LINE IS IT’S NOT DESTROY HAMAS. IT’S NO LONGER KILL EVERY SINGLE HAMAS OPERATIVE. THEY’RE NOW TALKING ABOUT DISMANTLING IT AS A MILITARY, COMPLETELY DEMILITARIZING IT, AND EVEN EXILING ITS LEADERS. A MONTH OR TWO AGO, IT WOULDN’T HAVE BEEN ENOUGH. YOU WOULD HAVE HAVE TO HAVE

SAID, WE WILL KILL THEM ALL, WILL EXECUTE THEM. NOW THEY’RE TALKING ABOUT EXILE AND SOME SORT OF OTHER OFFRAMP THAT IS DIFFERENT FROM, THE COMPLETE DEFEAT. SO THIS THIS COMPLETE AND VICTORY HAS BEEN CHANGING. BUT THE THING THAT NETANYAHU REALLY NEEDS MOST RIGHT NOW IS TO BRING THE HOSTAGES HOME.

THAT IS SOMETHING THAT WEIGHS ON ALL OF ISRAELIS. AND IT’S REALLY THE ONE UNIFYING FACTOR THAT EVERYBODY CAN GET AROUND AT THIS POINT, THIS WAR KYRA. >> WELL, YOU’VE TALKED ABOUT HOW ISRAEL EXTENDED THIS OFFER OF A TWO MONTH CEASE FIRE THAT HAMAS ACTUALLY REJECTED. SO, I MEAN, WHAT IS A NEW

HOSTAGE NEGOTIATION EVEN LOOK LIKE? IT’S INCREDIBLY COMPLEX AND. I HONESTLY I DON’T THINK ANYBODY REALLY KNOWS THE INTRICACIES OF WHAT’S GOING . I MEAN, IF WE TAKE WHAT HAPPENED IN NOVEMBER AS AN EXAMPLE, THAT WAS JUST SMALL SLIVER, RIGHT? HAMAS WAS PRETTY WILLING TO PART WITH THE WOMEN AND CHILDREN.

IT WAS A BAD LOOK. IT WAS MUCH MORE DIFFICULT TO KEEP THEM HAVING CHILDREN IN CAPTIVITY IS COSTLY. IT’S DIFFICULT FOR THE CAPTORS THEMSELVES. IT’S JUST VERY PROBLEMATIC FOR THEM. BUT TO KEEP THEM GROWN MEN, ADULT MEN, WOMEN AND SOLDIERS IS A DIFFERENT MATTER. AND THESE ARE THE LAST CARDS

THAT HAMAS HAS IN GAZA. SO THEY’RE HOLDING ON TO THEM VERY TIGHTLY. WHAT THEY’RE LOOKING FOR BROADLY IS A COMPLETE CESSATION OF VIOLENCE FOR ISRAEL TO WITHDRAW COMPLETELY FROM THE GAZA STRIP. ISRAEL SAYS THAT’S NOT GOING TO HAPPEN. SO THE QUESTION NOW, HOW LONG IS THE CEASE FIRE THAT BOTH

SIDES CAN AGREE TO WHILE THEY GET THE HOSTAGES RELEASED? AND THAT SENIOR ISRAELI TELLING ME THAT THERE IS NO WAY THAT YES, YES, SINWAR IS THE HEAD OF HAMAS IN GAZA IS SAID TO BE THE MASTERMIND BEHIND OCTOBER SEVENTH. THERE’S NO WAY HE’S GOING TO GIVE UP ALL OF THE HOSTAGES.

THIS SOURCE SAYS THAT HE’S GOT TO KEEP AT LEAST SOME OF THEM AS HIS INSURANCE CARD. ALL RIGHT. MATT GUTMAN, APPRECIATE YOUR REPORTING AS ALWAYS. WELL, UKRAINE NOW CONFIRMS THAT A RUSSIAN MILITARY PLANE HAS GONE DOWN NEAR ITS BORDER WITH RUSSIA. THE RUSSIAN DEFENSE MINISTER SAYING THE PLANE WAS

ACTUALLY CARRYING 74 PEOPLE, 65 OF THEM UKRAINIAN PRISONERS OF WAR. UKRAINE SAYS IT CAN’T CONFIRM HOW MANY PEOPLE WERE ON BOARD OR THEIR IDENTITIES, BUT UKRAINE’S MILITARY INTELLIGENCE IS TELLING ABC THAT THE INCIDENT MAY AMOUNT TO DELIBERATE ACTIONS BY RUSSIA AIMED AT ENDANGERING THE LIVES AND SAFETY OF PRISONERS.

COMING UP, WE’RE HEADING TO CONNECTICUT. NEVER BEFORE SEEN EVIDENCE IN THE CASE AGAINST MICHELLE TROCONIS. WHEN WE COME BACK, WE CAN CHANGE THE COURSE OF HISTORY. WE WILL FIGHT AGAINST REPRESSION BY ANY MEANS NECESSARY. BROTHERS AND SISTERS ARE YOU READY? IT MUST BE AMAZING BEING THIS

IS OUR REALITY NOW, TONIGHT, AFTER THE GOP FACE OFF, WHERE THE RACE FOR THE WHITE HOUSE STANDS. PLUS, THE WARS IN ISRAEL AND UKRAINE AND THE STRIKES AGAINST TUTSIS IN YEMEN. MORE AMERICANS TURN TO THE MOST WATCHED NEWSCAST ON TELEVISION “WORLD NEWS TONIGHT” WITH DAVID MUIR. DAVID. >> GIVE IT TO ME.

WHY DO SO MANY PEOPLE THEIR DAY HERE? FROM ABC NEWS THIS IS START TO BE IN THE NEWSROOM AND GET A DIFFERENT TAKE ON THE DAY’S TOP STORIES. A LOT OF NEWS TODAY, SO LET’S GET INTO IT. LISTEN NOW TO THE DAILY NEWS PODCAST HONORED WITH FOUR

EDWARD ARMOR AWARDS AND SEE WHY THE NEW YORK CALLS IT A NEWS PODCAST WORTH LISTENING TO. YOU START HERE. ABC NEWS MAKE IT YOUR DAILY FIRST LISTEN NOW THAT’S A PART OF THE STORY THAT YOU DIDN’T SEE COMING. >> WHEREVER YOU GET YOUR PODCASTS, START HERE. >> YOU’RE WATCHING AMERICA’S

ONE STREAMING NEWS WITH ABC LIVE SO GLAD YOU’RE STREAMING WITH US. NEW THIS HOUR, A JURY HAS BEEN SEATED IN THE TRIAL OF JENNIFER CRUMBLY. SHE’S FACING FOUR COUNTS OF INVOLUNTARY MANSLAUGHTER AFTER HER SON OPENED AT HIS MICHIGAN HIGH SCHOOL, KILLING FOUR PEOPLE AND WOUNDING SEVERAL OTHERS. JENNIFER CRUMBLY IS IN COURT

FOR GIVING HER SON. ACCESS TO THAT GUN. OUR TREVOR AULT COVERING IT FOR US AND HAS THE LATEST NOW ON WHAT THE CRUMBLES COULD FACE NEXT. >> JENNIFER CRUMBLES. HUSBAND JAMES IS ALSO FACING THOSE SAME FOUR INVOLUNTARY MANSLAUGHTER CHARGES. HIS TRIAL WILL BE HELD AFTER IT’S SCHEDULED FOR MARCH RIGHT.

BUT TO OUR KNOWLEDGE, THIS IS THE FIRST INSTANCE OF PARENTS OF SCHOOL SHOOTER BEING CHARGED IN THE UNITED STATES. AND EVIDENCE AGAINST THESE PARENTS IS PRETTY SUBSTANTIAL, ACCORDING THE PROSECUTION. IN TERMS OF THE MANY MISSED WARNING SIGNS, RED FLAGS, FOR EXAMPLE, THEY CITE THE FACT THAT THEY BOUGHT A WEAPON. THAT PROSECUTION,

THE PROSECUTION SAYS, WAS FOR THEIR 15 YEAR OLD SON. >> THEIR SON HAS TESTIFIED WHEN HE PLED GUILTY, THAT GUN WAS KEPT UNLOCKED, AND THEN HE THEN USED IT TO CARRY OUT THE TO KILL SEVERAL OF HIS CLASSMATES THE DAY OF THE SHOOTING. THESE PARENTS WERE CALLED INTO THE SCHOOL BECAUSE A TEACHER

HAD DISCOVERED DRAWINGS THEIR SON, AND THEY HAD A GUN THAT HAD A PERSON BEING SHOT THAT SAID THE THOUGHTS WON’T STOP. HELP ME. AND THOSE PARENTS, ACCORDING TO PROSECUTORS, DECLINED TO TAKE THEIR SON HOME THAT DAY. AND THEN THE SHOOTING HAPPENED A FEW HOURS AFTER. AND THEN, ACCORDING TO PROSECUTORS, WHEN

THE PARENTS LEARNED A SHOOTING HAD HAPPENED AT THE SCHOOL, THEY DIDN’T KNOW WHO HAD CARRIED IT. THEY IMMEDIATELY TEXTED THEIR SON, ETHAN, DON’T DO IT. PROSECUTORS WILL LIKELY USE THAT AS EVIDENCE. THESE PARENTS KNEW THIS WAS A POSSIBILITY. OF COURSE, THE ATTORNEYS FOR JENNIFER CRUMBLEY HAD THEY NEVER KNEW HE WAS CAPABLE

OF THIS AND THEY WOULD HAVE STOPPED HIM HAD THEY KNOWN . AND IT IS NOT NECESSARILY ILLEGAL TO BE A BAD PARENT, BUT THERE’S ABSOLUTELY COULD BE A PRECEDENT SETTING CASE IN THE STATES KYRA. ALL RIGHT, TREVOR, THANKS SO MUCH. AND NOW THAT THE JURY HAS BEEN SELECTED, OPENING STATEMENTS

IN THAT TRIAL ARE EXPECTED BEGIN ON THURSDAY IN ANOTHER COURTROOM. THIS TIME IN STAMFORD, CONNECTICUT. THE MICHELLE TROCONIS TRIAL HAS ENTERED ITS NINTH DAY OF TESTIMONY. TROCONIS IS ACCUSED OF CONSPIRING WITH HER LATE BOYFRIEND TO COVER UP THE MURDER OF HIS ESTRANGED WIFE. SHE’S NOT GUILTY TO CONSPIRACY TO COMMIT MURDER, EVIDENCE

TAMPERING AND ALSO HINDERING THE PROSECUTION. PROSECUTORS FOCUSED ON THE JURY BLOOD LIKE STAINS LINKED TO THE CASE SEIZED TRASH BINS IN THE AREA. INVESTIGATORS SAY THIS IS WHERE TROCONIS AND HER EX WERE ON THE NIGHT THAT JENNIFER FARBER DULOS MISSING. BRING IN OUR LEGAL CONTRIBUTOR AND TRIAL ATTORNEY, AUTHOR OF COME HOME

SAFE BRIAN BUCKMIRE BRYANT, BASED ON THE EVIDENCE HERE. JUST TALK TO US ABOUT WHAT DECISION. THE JURY NEEDS TO WEIGH. >> WELL, YOU KNOW, THE JURY HAS TO WEIGH HOW MUCH KNOWLEDGE THE SHOW’S REPORTERS HAVE IN THE DISAPPEARANCE AND MURDER OF JENNIFER DULOS. THEY’VE GOT TO LOOK AT, AS YOU

POINTED OUT, THE EVIDENCE THAT THEY SAW YESTERDAY, THE ZIP TIES, THE BLOODSTAINED CLOTHES, THE WHITE T-SHIRT THAT WAS ALL SCATTERED THROUGHOUT HARTFORD, CONNECTICUT, IN MAY OF 2019 THAT THE PROSECUTION IS SAYING WAS DOGGED BY PHOTOS DULOS. NOW, FOR THE DEFENSE, I THINK THE ARGUMENT HERE, FOR LACK

OF A BETTER, IS TO SAY THAT HER HANDS WERE DIRTY OR NOT BLOODY, THAT SHE MIGHT HAVE ACCOMPANIED PHOTOS DULOS THROUGHOUT THIS KIND OF A DUMPING OF ITEMS. BUT TO HAVE THE KNOWLEDGE THAT WHAT SHE DUMPING OR WHAT HE HAD DONE TO HIS ESTRANGED WIFE DAYS BEFORE SO THEY DIED BY SUICIDE AFTER

BEING CHARGED WITH HIS WIFE’S DISAPPEARANCE. BUT IN A NOTE HE SAID THAT TROCONIS HAD NOTHING TO DO WITH THE DISAPPEARANCE OF HIS WIFE. >> IS THAT GOING TO PLAY A ROLE IN THIS TRIAL? YOU THINK SO? WE HAVEN’T HEARD ABOUT THAT EVIDENCE COMING IN AS YET. AND SO IT’S NOT NECESSARILY,

YOU KNOW, BUT WHAT YOU CAN PROVE. AND WHAT I MEAN BY THAT IS THAT NO IS ANYTHING WE CALL HEARSAY. >> IT’S AN OUT-OF-COURT BECAUSE HE SAID IT OUTSIDE OF THE COURT, MEANT TO PROVE THE TRUTH THAT HE DISTURBING THAT HE AND MICHELLE TROCONIS WERE GUILTY OF THIS. NOW, THERE ARE EXCEPTIONS

TO HEARSAY LIKE A DYING. AND IF THE DEFENSE CAN ARTFULLY ARGUE THAT THIS IS THAT THESE ARE THE FINAL WORDS OF A DYING MAN, THAT THAT SHOULD BE CONSIDERED TO BE TRUE AND THAT MIGHT COME IN TO THE COURT. BUT I THINK IT’LL BE VERY HARD

BECAUSE SOME OF THE FACT OF HOW CONNECTICUT WORKS, WHO DIED EXPIRATIONS AND WHETHER OR NOT THIS IS TRUTHFUL, THIS COULD BE ANNOUNCED LAST LINE. >> I THINK THE PROSECUTORS WILL ARGUE BEFORE HE TAKES HIS OWN LIFE. ALL RIGHT, BRIAN BALTIMORE, THANK YOU. >> SO COMING UP ON THE RUN,

OBESITY HAD HIGHER LEVELS OF LONELINESS, HIGHER RISKS OF DEATH, HIGHER RISKS OF CARDIOVASCULAR DISEASE. AGAIN, THINGS THAT AFFECT A LOT OF PEOPLE, BUT DO SO MORE IN CERTAIN POPULATIONS. BIG PICTURE IN THE U.S., LAST YEAR THE U.S. SURGEON GENERAL DECLARED LONELINESS A PUBLIC HEALTH CRISIS.

NIKKI HALEY DECLARING, OUR FIGHT IS NOT OVER AS SHE VOWS TO CONTINUE ON TO HER HOME STATE OF SOUTH CAROLINA. >> DeMarco: JOINING US FROM NEW HAMPSHIRE IS EVA PILGRAM AND HERE IN STUDIO ABC POLITICAL DIRECTOR RICK KLEIN. EVA, WE MISS YOU, FRIEND.

YOU WERE AT NIKKI HALEY’S EVENT LAST NIGHT. WHAT WAS THE MOOD THERE AND WHAT WERE VOTERS TELLING YOU? >> Eva: WE WERE THERE LAST NIGHT. THERE WAS A BOOST OF ENERGY WE HAVEN’T SEEN AT ONE OF HER CAMPAIGN EVENTS. THERE’S A LITTLE BIT OF MOMENTUM

SHE HAS PICKED UP HERE IN NEW HAMPSHIRE. THE QUESTION IS IS IT ENOUGH AS SHE HEADS TO HER HOME STATE OF SOUTH CAROLINA WHERE DONALD TRUMP IS PULLING AHEAD OF HER THERE. THE THING WE HEARD FROM VOTERS HERE IN NEW HAMPSHIRE, NOW THAT

IT’S DOWN TO A TWO-MAN RACE, IT’S ABOUT THE CANDIDATES. THEY’RE CHOOSING THE PERSON THEY LIKE AND THINKING LESS ABOUT THE ISSUES. WHILE THE ISSUES MATTER TO THEM, IT’S ABOUT THE CHARACTER OF THESE TWO CANDIDATES. >> Erielle: RICK, WE SAW THAT TURN IN TONE FROM PRESIDENT TRUMP.

HIS SPEECH IN IOWA WAS A BIT MORE GRACIOUS. TALKING ABOUT HIS OPPONENTS IN A SOFTER WAY. THIS TIME HE SEEMED ANGRIER. HIS ADVISERS SEEMED TO BE TELLING HIM AVOID TALKING ABOUT NIKKI HALEY, TALK ABOUT BIDEN, HE DID THE OPPOSITE. >> LOOK, THIS WAS TRUMP UNLEASHED.

TO MY MIND THIS IS A GLIMPSE OF WHAT YOU GET WITH HIM. THE NIKKI HALEY CAMPAIGN IS HAPPY WITH IT. THEY DON’T WANT DONALD TRUMP TO BE THIS CONCILIATORY FIGURE WHO IS HAPPY. THEY WANT TO REMIND PEOPLE HE’S AN ATTACKER. HE’S A FIGHTER WHO MAKES THINGS PERSONAL.

THE FLIP SIDE IS IT’S GOING TO BE A BRUTAL MONTH FOR NIKKI HALEY. IF SHE DECIDES TO STAY IN THIS, SHE’S PROBABLY GOING TO LOSE HER HOME STATE OF SOUTH CAROLINA. THAT WAS THE MESSAGE FROM TRUMP. IF SHE DECIDES TO GO ON, IT’S GAME ON.

>> DeMarco: WHAT ARE VOTERS THINKING? YOU HAVE EXIT POLLING. >> A LOT OF VOTERS ARE THINKING ABOUT PEOPLE MORE THAN ISSUES. TO THE EXTENT THEY’RE TALKING ABOUT ISSUES, WE SAW MOST PEOPLE TALKING ABOUT THE ECONOMY. THE SECOND PLACE ON THAT, IMMIGRATION. WE SAW THAT RIGHT BEHIND THERE.

THOSE ARE ISSUES DONALD TRUMP TALKS ABOUT ALL THE TIME. FOREIGN POLICY AND ABORTION, THOSE ARE NIKKI HALEY ISSUES. I WAS STRUCK BY THIS IN THE EXIT POLLS, THE QUESTION ABOUT WHETHER TRUMP IS FIT FOR OFFICE IF HE’S CONVICTED. 54% OF REPUBLICANS SAY IT’S FINE IF HE’S CONVICTED.

4 IN 10 SAY IT’S NOT. THERE’S A GOOD CHANCE HE WILL BE CON CONVICTED BY NOVEMBER. THAT’S WHAT NIKKI HALEY WANTS TO RAISE THE ALARMS ABOUT. >> Erielle: I WONDER IF NIKKI HALEY CAN CAPITALIZE ON THAT MESSAGE. EVA, SHE’S HEADING TO SOUTH CAROLINA, YOUR HOME STATE.

FIVETHIRYEIGHT SAYS IF SHE CAN’T WIN IN SOUTH CAROLINA, IT’S TOUGH. >> Eva: THERE’S A MONTH BEFORE THE PRIMARY. A MONTH IN THE WORLD OF POLITICS IS A LONG TIME. THEY THINK THERE’S A PATH FORWARD THERE FOR HER TO BECOME THE PRESIDENTIAL NOMINEE. IN SOUTH CAROLINA, ANYONE CAN

VOTE IN THE PRIMARY, AS LONG AS THEY DIDN’T VOTE IN THE DEMOCRATIC PRIMARY. INDEPENDENTS CAN VOTE IN THAT PRIMARY. WE SAW HER DO REALLY WELL WITH INDEPENDENTS IN NEW HAMPSHIRE. THE THING SHE NEEDS IN SOUTH CAROLINA ARE FOR THOSE TRADITIONAL REPUBLICANS TO VOTE FOR HER.

WHEN YOU LOOK AT HER TIME IN SOUTH CAROLINA, WE MENTIONED IT A FEW TIME. I’M FROM SOUTH CAROLINA. I KNOW SOUTH CAROLINA WELL. SHE WAS WELL THOUGHT OF AS A GOVERNOR IN SOUTH CAROLINA. THE QUESTION IS, WHO DO THOSE VOTERS LIKE MORE, NIKKI HALEY OR DONALD TRUMP?

IN LEXINGTON COUNTY, THE COUNTY WHERE SHE HELD HER FIRST SEAT, I WAS THERE A FEW WEEKS AGO. THE TARGET, THE WALMART, THE GROCERY STORE EVERYWHERE THERE WERE TRUMP STICKERS, TRUMP HATS, TRUMP FLAGS. PEOPLE LIKE DONALD TRUMP. SHE HAS TO FIGURE OUT A WAY TO GET TRADITIONAL VOTERS TO CHOOSE

TO VOTE FOR HER AND NOT THE FORMER PRESIDENT. >> DeMarco: IT’S A CHALLENGE INDEED. >> Erielle: EVA, WE COULDN’T THINK OF SOMEONE TO GIVE US BETTER INSIGHT IN SOUTH CAROLINA. RICK KLEIN, THANK YOU FOR THE COVERAGE. >>> UP NEXT, THEY’REHE BETSY R

DIFFERENT AESTHETICS OF A TIME. SO THE FLAGS SPECIFICALLY FROM THE ’80s AND ’90s, THE COLOR VARIANCE AND THE STITCH DIRECTIONS LOOK DIFFERENT. >> WE’VE STUDIED UNDER EMBROIDERY MASTERS FROM ENGLAND, FRANCE, INDIA, KOREA, VIETNAM AND HONG KONG. IT GIVES US A UNIQUE STYLE.

THE STYLES TAUGHT IN THIS ROOM HAVE FUSED INTO AN AMERICAN STYLE THAT ONLY WE PRACTICE. IN A LOT OF WAYS THE FLAGS ARE INFINITELY MORE ACCURATE THAN A MACHINE COULD EVER BE. EACH ONE OF THEM IS ONE OF A KIND. THIS FLAG CAN’T BE REPLICATED.

NOW ON ABC NEWS LIVE. PRESIDENT BIDEN PICKING UP A MAJOR AHEAD OF THE GENERAL ELECTION. HOW THE BACKING OF THE UNITED WORKERS COULD GIVE HIM AN EDGE IN TWO MIDWEST SWING AS DONALD TRUMP AND NIKKI HALEY HEAD FOR ANOTHER PRIMARY SHOWDOWN, HER HOME STATE OF SOUTH CAROLINA. AND BOEING CEO CAPITOL HILL

TODAY FACING THE FALLOUT FROM RECENT SAFETY SCARES. WHAT HE’S TELLING LAWMAKERS AS FRUSTRATION BUILDS AMONG SOME AIRLINES. AND THE FLOOD AND TORNADO THREAT THREAT ACROSS SOUTH AFTER TORRENTIAL RAIN SENT WAVES OF WATER TO THE STREETS HERE ON THE WEST COAST. WE HAVE THE LATEST TIME AND TRACK JUST AHEAD.

>> WE BEGIN HERE WITH PRESIDENT BIDEN PICKING UP A MAJOR ENDORSEMENT IN THE GENERAL ELECTION FROM THE UNITED AUTO WORKERS. THE HEAD OF THE UNION CHAMPAGNE MAKING THE ANNOUNCEMENT AS PRESIDENT BIDEN ATTENDED A UAW IN D.C. TODAY. BIDEN TELLING MEMBERS THAT HE’S HIS COMMITMENT TO BEING WHEN HE LABELS HIMSELF THE MOST

PRESIDENT EVER. >> TOGETHER, THE THREE YEARS I’VE ALWAYS BELIEVED WALL STREET GROW AMERICA, THE MIDDLE CLASS. BLOOMBERG AND UNIONS BUILT THE CLASS. >> THAT’S A FACT. WELL, THE UNION ALSO BACKED BIDEN IN 2020, AND YOU MIGHT REMEMBER THAT HE JOINED UAW PICKET LINE IN MICHIGAN DURING LAST YEAR’S HIS AUTOWORKERS

STRIKE. ABC NEWS SENIOR WHITE HOUSE CORRESPONDENT SELINA WANG IS JOINING ME NOW WITH MORE. SELINA, YOU WOULDN’T BE PRESIDENT. I MEAN NOT ONLY ENDORSING BIDEN TODAY, BUT THEN HE ALSO SAID SOME HARSH WORDS FOR DONALD TRUMP. >> YEAH, I MEAN, SEAN FAHY IS A KNOWN OUTSPOKEN CRITIC OF DONALD TRUMP, BUT REALLY

HE DID NOT MINCE HIS WORDS HERE. AND HE SPENT A LONG TIME IN HIS SPEECH REALLY GOING TRUMP THROWING INSULTS AT HIM AND DRAWING THAT CONTRAST WITH PRESIDENT. HE CALLED DONALD TRUMP A BILLIONAIRE WHO DOESN’T CARE ABOUT THE AMERICAN WORKER. THEN HE PRAISED BIDEN FOR REALLY WORKING AND EARNING THIS

ENDORSEMENT AND, PRAISING HIM FOR BEING THE FIRST SITTING PRESIDENT TO JOIN THE UAW, THE PICKET LINE. NOW, HE DID REFERENCE THIS SPECIFIC INSTANCE OF DONALD HANDLING OF THE UNION STRIKE IN 2019, AND HE HAD SOME VERY WORDS HERE. >> TAKE A LISTEN. HE WENT TO A NONUNION INVITED

BY THE BOSS AND TRASHED ARE TRIED. >> AND HERE IS WHAT JOE BIDEN DID DURING OUR STAND UP STRIKE. HE HEARD THE CALL AND HE STOOD UP AND HE SHOWED UP. >> NOW, LOOK, IT’S NO SURPRISE THAT THE UAW IS SUPPORTING A DEMOCRATIC CANDIDATE. BUT THIS WAS A LONG TIME

IN WAITING BECAUSE LAST YEAR MANY UNIONS HAD SUPPORTED BIDEN’S REELECTION CAMPAIGN. BUT THE UAW, THEY HELD OFF FOR MONTHS. THEY CITED SOME CONCERNS AROUND THE PRESIDENT’S POLICIES AND WHAT THAT COULD MEAN FOR THEIR JOBS. SO REALLY, THE PRESIDENT HAD A COURT, THE UAW, HE REALLY HAD TO WORK FOR THIS.

>> HE CERTAINLY DID. AND ALSO HIS ENDORSEMENT, I MEAN, IT COULD BE KEY AS PRESIDENT SEEKS TO RALLY SUPPORT FROM BLUE COLLAR WORKERS IN SWING STATES, OF COURSE, LIKE MICHIGAN. LIKE WISCONSIN. EXACTLY. I MEAN, THIS COULD BE REALLY CRITICAL BECAUSE OF THE INFLUENCE OF THE UAW, THESE BATTLEGROUND STATES LIKE MICHIGAN.

AND IT’S REALLY BEEN A KEY PART OF THE PRESIDENT’S REELECTION STRATEGY TO COURT THESE UNION VOTERS. THE PRESIDENT, AS YOU MENTIONED, CONSISTENTLY CALLING HIMSELF THE MOST PRO-UNION PRESIDENT HISTORY. AND IT COULD MATTER NOW, BACK IN 2020, PRESIDENT BIDEN, HE DID DO BETTER WITH UNION VOTERS THAN. TRUMP BUT IN 2016, DONALD

TRUMP GOT THE MOST UNION SUPPORT OF ANY REPUBLICAN PRESIDENTIAL NOMINEE SINCE REAGAN. SO THE TRUMP STILL TRYING TO GO THE UNION MEMBERS AS WELL. AND ALL OF THIS COMING AS THE BIDEN THEY WERE REALLY FULLY PIVOTING DOWN TO GENERAL ELECTION MODE. THEIR FOCUSING THEIR ATTACKS ON TRUMP. THEY’RE REALLY AMPING UP,

AMPING UP THE ANTE. >> ALL RIGHT, SELENA FROM THE WHITE HOUSE, THANK YOU SO MUCH. AND NOW THE RACE FOR PRESIDENT ON. THE REPUBLICAN SIDE. YOU’RE SHIFTING TO NIKKI HALEY’S HOME STATE OF SOUTH CAROLINA. DONALD TRUMP’S COMMANDING WIN OVER HER IN NEW HAMPSHIRE. THE FORMER PRESIDENT SECURING

A DOUBLE DIGIT VICTORY LAST NIGHT, BEATING HALEY, 54 TO 43%. >> AND DESPITE THE LOSS, HALEY USING CONCESSION SPEECH TO RALLY HER SUPPORTERS, VOWING TO STAY IN THIS AND ISSUING SOME OF HER STRONGEST ATTACKS YET AGAINST, THE FRONT RUNNER WITH DONALD TRUMP. REPUBLICANS HAVE LOST ALMOST EVERY COMPETITIVE. THE WORST KEPT SECRET

IN POLITICS IS HOW BADLY THE DEMOCRATS WANT RUN AGAINST DONALD TRUMP. WELL, THOSE COMMENTS DRAWING A BLISTERING COUNTERATTACK FROM THE FORMER PRESIDENT DURING HIS VICTORY SPEECH. WHO THE HELL WAS THE IMPOSTOR THAT WENT UP ON THE STAGE BEFORE AND LIKE CLAIMED THE VICTORY? SHE DID VERY POORLY, ACTUALLY.

>> SHE HAD TO WIN. THE GOVERNOR SAID SHE’S, GOING TO WIN. SHE’S GOING TO WIN. SHE’S GOING TO WIN. THEN SHE SHE FAILED BADLY. >> WELL, HALEY HOPES TO GAIN SOME HOME FIELD ADVANTAGE HERE IN THE NEXT MAJOR PRIMARY CONTESTS NEXT MONTH IN SOUTH CAROLINA. BUT THE LATEST POLLING AVERAGE

FROM OUR PARTNERS AT 538 YOU SEE HERE SHOWS TRUMP LEADING THERE BY MORE THAN 30 POINTS. THE HOST OF THE FIVETHIRTYEIGHT POLITICS PODCAST, GALEN DRUKE, IS JOINING ME NOW FOR MORE ON THIS. GALEN, THANKS FOR BEING US. SO POLLING WITHIN ABOUT TEN POINTS OF TRUMP IN NEW HAMPSHIRE NOW, THAT’S A BIG

IMPROVEMENT ON HALEY’S PART, ESPECIALLY CONSIDERING 30 POINT LOSS HURT HIM IN IOWA. >> IS THAT ENOUGH OF A REASON FOR HER TO FEEL OPTIMISTIC GOING FORWARD? >> CAME OUT ON VALUE. YOU MIGHT THINK IT DOES, BUT THE REALITY IS THAT NEW IN TERMS OF THE COALITION THAT’S VOTING IS THE MOST SORT

OF OPTIMISTIC ELECTORATE GOING TO SEE FOR THE KIND OF VOTER THAT SHE ATTRACTS IN THIS RACE . I MEAN, IF YOU WANT TO TRY TO DEVISE THE BEST STATE ELECTORALLY FOR HALEY, IT MIGHT BE NEW HAMPSHIRE. IT’S ONE OF THE STATES, THE COUNTRY WITH THE HIGHEST LEVEL OF FOUR YEAR COLLEGE

DEGREE ATTAINMENT. >> AND SHE DOES REALLY WELL WITH THOSE KINDS OF VOTERS. AND SHE ALSO DOES WELL WITH INDEPENDENT VOTERS WHO, AS WE’VE DISCUSSED, CAN VOTE IN THE NEW HAMPSHIRE PRIMARY. >> AND SO WHILE CLOSING THAT GAP FROM 30 POINTS TO TEN POINTS SOUNDS LIKE A BIG IMPROVEMENT, THE REALITY IS,

ACCORDING TO OUR BENCHMARKS AT FIVETHIRTYEIGHT, IF NIKKI HALEY WAS TO BE ON TRACK TO WIN THE REPUBLICAN NOMINATION, SHE ACTUALLY NEEDED WIN ALL OF THE DELEGATES UP FOR GRABS IN NEW HAMPSHIRE LAST NIGHT. INTERESTING. SO NOW, OF COURSE, THEY’RE GOING TO SOUTH CAROLINA. HER HOME STATE.

I’M STRUCK BY THIS QUOTE FROM SOUTH CAROLINA’S FORMER GOP CHAIRMAN WHO ESSENTIALLY SAID, LOOK, PEOPLE LIKE HALEY HERE, BUT THEY LOVE DONALD TRUMP. SO WHAT ARE YOU SEEING IN TERMS OF THE SOUTH CAROLINA ELECTORATE? >> YEAH, I MENTIONED THE DIPLOMA DIVIDE THAT WE HAVE AMERICAN POLITICS, WHICH IS THAT WHETHER YOU HAVE

A COLLEGE DEGREE SHAPED, YOU VIEW POLITICS AND MAYBE HOW YOU VOTE. SOUTH CAROLINA IS A STATE, JUST TO PUT SOME NUMBERS TO IT. 41% OF NEW HAMPSHIRE RESIDENTS HAVE A FOUR YEAR COLLEGE DEGREE. >> IN SOUTH CAROLINA, THAT’S 26%. THOSE A VERY RELIGIOUS STATE, IT TENDS TO BE MORE EVANGELICAL.

>> AND THOSE ARE VOTERS WHO LIKE DONALD TRUMP. WE’VE SEEN, YOU KNOW, WE’RE WE’VE BEEN DOING THIS FOR EIGHT YEARS NOW. SO WE KNOW THE TRENDS PRETTY WELL IN TERMS OF THE GROUPS DONALD TRUMP OVERPERFORMED WITH. >> AND SO WE TALKED ABOUT THE 30 PLUS POINT GAP BETWEEN

TRUMP AND HALEY AT THIS POINT. AND YEAH, WHILE THEY LIKE HER, LIKED HER AS GOVERNOR, WE’VE SEEN TIME AND TIME AGAIN THAT EVEN IN THE FACE OF POPULAR STATE POLITICIANS LIKE KIM REYNOLDS IN IOWA ENDORSING RON DESANTIS WHEN IT COMES TO TRUMP, HE MAY BE ABLE TO TRUMP ALL OF THAT POTENTIALLY.

>> AND NOW WE HEAR TRUMP AND WE HEAR BIDEN NOW TALKING LIKE THE PRIMARIES OVER. IT’S ON TO THE GENERAL ELECTION JUST BETWEEN THE TWO OF THEM. SO WHAT ISSUES DO YOU THINK NOW, IF THAT’S THE CASE, COULD DEFINE THE GENERAL ELECTION? >> YEAH, SO I THINK THAT FROM

LOOKING AT EXIT POLLS LAST NIGHT AND LOOKING AT POLLS OF A HYPOTHETICAL GENERAL ELECTION OVERALL, I THINK ONE REALLY BIG TREND TO STICK OUT, WHICH IS THAT WE HAVE HISTORICALLY UNPOPULAR ON EITHER SIDE. YOU KNOW, ACCORDING TO OUR FAVORABLE OUR FAVOURABILITY AVERAGES AT FIVETHIRTYEIGHT, TRUMP IS POLLING AT NET NEGATIVE NINE UNFAVORABILITY

AND BIDEN IS THAT NET NEGATIVE 15 FAVORABILITY. SO THIS IS GOING TO BE IN SOME WAYS A RACE TO THE BOTTOM. >> THEY’RE GOING TO BE FIGHTING FOR FOUR AMERICANS WHO HAVE UNFAVORABLE VIEWS OF BOTH OF THEM. ARE THEY GOING TO SWING TOWARDS BIDEN OR ARE THEY GOING TO SWING TOWARDS TRUMP AND

THE ISSUES THAT THAT’S GOING TO BE FOUGHT ARE IN LARGE PART THE ECONOMY, IMMIGRATION AND TO SOME EXTENT FOREIGN POLICY AND ABORTION. SO IF THEY’RE CORRECT, IF THIS IS THE MATCHUP, THAT’S THE KIND OF, YOU KNOW, 20, 24 GENERAL ELECTION, WE SHOULD GET READY FOR A RACE TO THE BOTTOM.

>> THAT IS SO INTERESTING. GALEN, THANK YOU FOR ANALYSIS. >> WE APPRECIATE IT. AND NOW LET’S GO ON TO BOEING HERE. BOEING OF UNDER SOME GROWING PRESSURE. NOW THE COMPANY’S CEO FACING TOUGH QUESTIONS ON CAPITOL HILL FROM LAWMAKERS TODAY. DAVE CALHOUN VOWED TO BE AS TRANSPARENT AS POSSIBLE IN DISCUSSING RECENT INCIDENTS

INVOLVING BOEING’S MAX NINE PLANES. HERE’S WHAT HE HAD TO SAY EARLIER. >> WI-FI, SIX PLANES. WE DON’T SET AIRPLANES IN. THE AIR THAT WE DON’T HAVE 100% CONFIDENCE IN. I’M HERE TODAY IN THE SPIRIT OF TRANSPARENCY, THE NUMBER ONE HAVE THE SERIOUSNESS OF WHAT YOU JUST ASKED. NUMBER TWO, TO SHARE EVERYTHING

I CAN WITH OUR CAPITOL HILL INTERESTS AND ANSWER ALL THE QUESTIONS BECAUSE THEY HAVE A LOT OF THEM. >> WELL, ALL HAPPENING AFTER THE DISCOVERY OF MANUFACTURING ERRORS DURING PLANE INSPECTIONS. AND, OF COURSE THAT MIDAIR SCARE ON THAT ALASKA AIRLINES FLIGHT. UNITED AIRLINES, WHICH ALSO FLIES THOSE MAX NINE PLANES,

SAYS IT ALSO FOUND LOOSE BOLTS DURING INSPECTIONS AND NOW IS RETHINKING THE COMPANY’S COMMITMENT TO BOEING FOR FUTURE ORDERS OVER QUALITY CONCERNS. ABC NEWS TRANSPORTATION CORRESPONDENT GIO BENITEZ JOINS US NOW FROM REAGAN NATIONAL AIRPORT. GIO, THANK YOU FOR BEING HERE WITH US. I KNOW IT’S A BUSY DAY FOR YOU.

YOU WERE UP ON THE AS WELL TODAY. >> WHAT ELSE DID CALHOUN SAY ABOUT? HIS AND BOEING’S RESPONSIBILITY HERE. AND HOW ARE THE SENATORS? THOSE CLOSED DOOR MEETINGS WRAPPING? WELL, LOOK, WHAT’S SO INTERESTING ABOUT THIS IS THAT HE IS THE ONE WHO REQUESTED THESE MEETINGS.

SO HE KNEW HE WAS GOING TO FACE TOUGH QUESTIONS. WE KNOW THAT A LOT OF THESE THESE MEETINGS, AT LEAST AN HOUR LONG IN MANY CASES. WE KNOW THAT THE SENATORS WERE PRESSING HIM ON SAFETY. RIGHT. BECAUSE THAT IS THE ENTIRE FOCUS HERE, ESPECIALLY THE SENATOR FROM ALASKA. SULLIVAN.

HE WAS TALKING ABOUT, LISTEN, MY CONSTITUENTS, ALASKA, THEY NEED THESE PLANES BECAUSE IT ACCOUNTS FOR SOME 20% OF THE ENTIRE ALASKA AIRLINES FLEET. SO THEY NEED THE MAX NINE. THEY NEED TO BE ABLE TO USE THEM TO GET AROUND THIS COUNTRY. BUT WE NEED TO MAKE SURE THAT THIS IS SAFE.

THIS IS ALL ABOUT SAFETY. AND SO NOW ALL OF THE SENATORS ARE SAYING, YOU KNOW WHAT WE DO IN NEED HEARINGS TO TAKE PLACE. WE NEED TO TALK ABOUT THIS IN AND FIGURE OUT WHAT HAPPENED. WAS THIS A MANUFACTURING ERROR? WERE THERE BOLTS ON THAT DOOR? PLUG IT TO WITH?

>> AND THAT’S ONE OF THE BIG QUESTIONS HERE. THAT IS A HUGE QUESTION. OF COURSE, WE KNOW ONE SENATOR EVEN SAYING THERE SHOULD BE SOME KIND OF SEPARATE BILL THAT COMES OUT OF THIS COMMITTEE RELATED TO AIRLINE SAFETY. AND I KNOW YOU’VE BEEN WATCHING THIS CLOSELY, JOE. AND THE FAA IS INVESTIGATING

THIS OTHER INCIDENT WITH A BOEING. AND THIS HAPPENED IN ATLANTA, AND A TIRE ACTUALLY FELL OFF A DELTA FLIGHT JUST BEFORE TAKEOFF. >> WHAT DO WE KNOW ABOUT THAT? >> SO RIGHT NOW, WHAT WE KNOW IS THAT THIS IS LIKELY A MAINTENANCE ISSUE. SO IT MAY NOT EVEN BE A BOEING

ISSUE IS LIKELY A MAINTENANCE ISSUE THAT LED TO THAT TIRE OR THAT TIRE FALLING OFF. >> BUT THE POINT IS THIS. THERE IS A PUBLIC PERCEPTION THAT THERE IS AN ISSUE AT BOEING. AND SO NOW ANY TIME SOMETHING HAPPENS WITH A BOEING AIRPLANE, A LOT OF PEOPLE ARE SAYING,

WELL, WAIT A MINUTE, WHAT CAUSED IT? WHY DID THAT HAPPEN? AND SHOULD WE BE LOOKING INTO IT A LOT CLOSER? SO THAT MAY ACTUALLY NOT BE RELATED TO BOEING, BUT IT SIGNALS WHAT’S HAPPENING WITH BOEING’S PUBLIC PERCEPTION AND THE TRUST THAT FOR SO MANY YEARS IT EARNED WITH THE FLYING

FLYING PUBLIC AND NOW I’M GETTING TWEETS FROM PEOPLE SAYING, IS IT SAFE TO FLY ON A BOEING PLANE? >> AND YOU COULD UNDERSTAND WHY. RIGHT. AND THAT’S CERTAINLY NOT SOMETHING THE AIRLINE INDUSTRY WANTS THEIR PASSENGERS TO BE ASKING. ALSO, JOE, WE TALKED ABOUT BOEING GROUNDING THESE, MAX NINE PLANES AND THEY’VE

BEEN CONDUCTING THESE INSPECTIONS. BUT DO THEY HAVE ANY IDEA AS TO WHEN WE COULD POSSIBLY THESE PLANES BACK IN THE SKIES? >> YES. SO. >> SULLIVAN SENATOR SULLIVAN ACTUALLY SAID TODAY THAT DAVE CALHOUN, THEM IT’S A MATTER OF DAYS OR WEEKS, NOT MONTHS, BUT DID SAY IT SOUNDED LIKE THAT WAS HIS HOPE.

AND SO CERTAINLY HOPES THIS TO BE SOMETHING THAT’S DONE QUICKLY. BUT THE TRUTH IS KIND. THE AIRLINES HAVE NOT YET RECEIVED THE SPECIAL SAFETY INSPECTION GUIDELINES THAT THEY NEED FROM THE FAA AND BOEING. THOSE ARE THE GUIDELINES THAT ARE GOING TO TELL THEM EXACTLY HOW TO INSPECT THESE

PLANES TO MAKE SURE THEY ARE SAFE BEFORE THEY GET BACK ON THE AIR. AND WITHOUT THOSE GUIDELINES, THEY CLAIM, THEY CANNOT GET THESE PLANES BACK IN THE AIR. AND SO THEY ARE WAITING. THOSE TO SEE HOW LONG THESE INSPECTIONS TAKE, BECAUSE CERTAINLY YOU COULD TAKE DAYS OR WEEKS JUST TO DO THE INSPECTIONS.

>> WOW. THAT IS INTERESTING. GIO BENITEZ, THANK YOU SO MUCH FOR JOINING US ON THIS BUSY DAY. WE APPRECIATE IT. >> AND NOW WE’VE GOT A MINNESOTA STATE TROOPER NOW CHARGED WITH IN THE DEADLY SHOOTING OF A BLACK MOTORIST DURING A TRAFFIC STOP. INVESTIGATORS SAY THAT MOTORIST RICKY COBB, THE SECOND FAILED

TO GET OUT OF HIS CAR DURING THAT TRAFFIC STOP. IT HAPPENED IN JULY AND THEN TOOK HIS FOOT OFF THE BRAKE WHEN OFFICERS TO ARREST HIM. ABC’S ALEX PEREZ IS LIVE IN CHICAGO FOLLOWING THIS STORY. SO ALEX, WHAT IS THE LATEST HERE? HEY KEN THAT TROOPER RYAN LANDRIGAN HAS ACTUALLY BEEN CHARGED

WITH THREE CHARGES. HE’S FACING A SECOND DEGREE UNINTENTIONAL MURDER CHARGE, A SECOND DEGREE MANSLAUGHTER CHARGE AND A FIRST DEGREE ASSAULT. THESE CHARGES ALL COME AFTER A MONTHS LONG INVESTIGATION. NOW, TO REFRESH YOUR MEMORY, THIS ALL HAPPENED BACK ON JULY 31ST, THE EARLY MORNING HOURS LAST YEAR, 2023.

AUTHORITIES SAY THOSE TROOPERS SAY THEY PULLED THE CARD OVER BECAUSE HIS TAIL LIGHTS ON HIS VEHICLE WERE. AND ONCE THEY PULLED HIM OVER AND RAN HIS INFORMATION, THEY DISCOVERED THAT A NEIGHBORING COUNTY ACTUALLY WANTED TO SPEAK WITH HIM AFTER AN ALLEGATION THAT HE VIOLATED A DOMESTIC OF PROTECTION.

AND THAT’S WHEN THINGS ESCALATED. WAS A BACK AND FORTH BETWEEN THOSE TROOPERS AND COBB. AND THEN A TROOPER FIRES AT COBB KILLING HIM. THOSE TROOPERS DID TRY TO PERFORM CPR AND FIRST AID. BUT AT THAT POINT, IT WAS TOO LATE. AND THE PARK FAMILY SAYS THAT THESE CHARGES ARE A STEP

IN THE RIGHT DIRECTION AND THEY’RE A STEP TOWARDS JUSTICE FOR THEM. AND ATTORNEY FOR COBB CRITICIZES THE HENNEPIN COUNTY ATTORNEY, SAYING THE COUNTY ATTORNEY IS, QUOTE, OUT CONTROL. IF CONVICTED, THIS TROOPER COULD 10 TO 15 YEARS BEHIND BARS, HANNAH. ALL RIGHT, ALEX, PRESENT CHICAGO FOR US. THANK YOU SO MUCH.

AND WE NOW TO THE EXTREME WEATHER, FLASH FLOODING. THERE’S A TORNADO THREAT IN THE . 17 STATES ARE UNDER FLOOD WATCH. HEAVY RAIN IS NOW PARTS OF TEXAS AND FLOOD WARNINGS ARE IN EFFECT IN THE EASTERN PART OF THAT STATE AS. >> FLOOD RAVAGED SAN DIEGO IS STILL RECOVERING AFTER DAYS

OF TORRENTIAL RAIN. IN FACT, THE NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE SAYS THAT CITY HAD FOURTH WETTEST DAY ON RECORD THIS WEEK. SAN MAYOR SAYING IT’S GOING TO TAKE MONTHS TO CLEAN UP AND THAT EXTREME WEATHER COULD BRING DAMAGING WINDS AND POSSIBLE TORNADOES TO THE SOUTH. OUR ABC NEWS METEOROLOGIST SOMARA THEODORE IS TRACKING IT

ALL FOR US TOMORROW KATE. >> RIGHT NOW, THERE’S SO MANY THINGS GOING ON IN THE WORLD OF WEATHER. SO I WANT TO GET STARTED WITH THIS THIS STORM SYSTEM THAT’S BEEN IMPACTING THE GULF OF MEXICO, BRINGING A SIGNIFICANT THREAT FOR FLOODING. CITIES LIKE ALEXANDRIA JACKSON, MISSISSIPPI, NEW ORLEANS, DOWN

TO HOUSTON HAVE THE GREATEST THREAT FOR FLASH FLOODING. NOT ONLY THAT, BUT STORMS THAT ARE POPPING UP FROM CHRISTI TO KNOXVILLE OVER TO ATLANTA MOBILE TO BRING WITH THEM THE THREAT FOR, DAMAGING WINDS ALONG WITH SOME TORNADOES AS WE HEAD THROUGH THE REMAINDER OF WEDNESDAY. >> NOW, THE RAIN TOTALS

ARE GOING TO VARY, BUT WE COULD SEE 5 TO 8 INCHES FROM HOUSTON, IN JACKSON, MISSISSIPPI, AND THEN TOMORROW, ATLANTA GETS IN ON THIS FLOODING COULD BE A SIGNIFICANT PROBLEM FOR THOSE IN ATLANTA TOMORROW WHERE THEY COULD SEE 3 TO 5 INCHES OF RAIN NOW IN THE NORTHERN TIER OF THIS STORM SYSTEM.

RIGHT, BECAUSE THAT THE SOUTHERN PORTION OF THE STORM, THE NORTHERN TIER, IT BROUGHT WINTRY WEATHER TO MUCH OF THE NORTHEAST. NOW WE’RE SEEING THAT SWITCH OVER TO RAIN. THE SOAKING CONDITIONS, A LOT OF THAT SNOW IN UPSTATE NEW YORK, PARTS OF PENNSYLVANIA AND NEW ENGLAND. MEANWHILE, ON THE WEST COAST,

MORE WET WEATHER MOVING IN IN THE NEXT DAYS. WE COULD PICK UP ANYWHERE FROM 3 TO 5 INCHES FROM SEATTLE ALL THE WAY DOWN TO SAN FRANCISCO. FURTHER INLAND IS A CHANCE FOR SNOW IN THE ROCKIES AS LOOK THE FORECAST. KATE. BACK TO YOU. ALL RIGHT, TAMARA, THANK YOU SO MUCH.

AND WE ARE FOLLOWING THE LATEST NOW OUT OF THE MIDDLE EAST WHERE U.S. CENTRAL COMMAND IS CONFIRMING YET ANOTHER IRAN BACKED HOUTHI ATTACK.

DONALD TRUMP SECURING A DOUBLE DIGIT VICTORY IN NEW HAMPSHIRE

LAST NIGHT AND BEATING HALEY 54 TO 43%. A LITTLE MORE THAN A WEEK AFTER LANDSLIDE WIN IN IOWA. DESPITE THE LOSS, HALEY TO STAY IN THE RACE AND ISSUING SOME OF HER STRONGEST ATTACKS AGAINST THE GOP FRONTRUNNER. >> WITH DONALD, REPUBLICANS HAVE LOST ALMOST EVERY COMPETITIVE ELECTION, THE WORST

KEPT SECRET IN POLITICS IS HOW BADLY THE DEMOCRATS WANT TO RUN AGAINST DONALD TRUMP. WELL, THOSE COMMENTS DRAWING THEN A BLISTERING COUNTERATTACK FROM THE FORMER PRESIDENT. AND DURING HIS VICTORY SPEECH. >> WHO THE HELL WAS THE IMPOSTOR THAT WENT UP ON THE STAGE BEFORE AND LIKE CLAIMED VICTORY? SHE DID VERY POORLY, ACTUALLY.

SHE HAD TO WIN. THE GOVERNOR. SHE’S GOING TO WIN. SHE’S GOING TO WIN. SHE’S GOING TO WIN. THEN SHE SHE FAILED BADLY. >> WELL, IN THE MEANTIME, PRESIDENT BIDEN SCORING A HUGE ENDORSEMENT TODAY FROM THE UNITED AUTO WORKERS. HE TOLD MEMBERS IN D.C. TODAY THAT HE’S KEEPING

HIS COMMITMENT TO, BEING WHAT HE CALLS HIMSELF THE MOST PRO-UNION PRESIDENT EVER PUT TOGETHER FOR. >> I’VE ALWAYS BELIEVED WALL STREET DIDN’T BUILD AMERICA MIDDLE CLASS. GOLDBERG AND UNIONS BUILT THE MIDDLE CLASS. THAT’S A FACT. >> WELL, JOINING ME NOW IS SENIOR SPOKESPERSON FOR THE BIDEN HARRIS CAMPAIGN,

KEVIN MUNOZ, FROM THEIR CAMPAIGN CAMPAIGN HEADQUARTERS THERE IN WILMINGTON, DELAWARE. THANK YOU SO MUCH FOR JOINING US. WE APPRECIATE YOUR TIME. I KNOW HOW BUSY IT IS RIGHT NOW. AND LET’S TALK, FIRST OF ALL, ABOUT LAST NIGHT, PRESIDENT BIDEN RELEASING THIS STATEMENT WHERE HE WAS YOU KNOW, HE WAS REALLY QUITE

CLEAR THAT HE VIEWS TRUMP AS THE REPUBLICAN NOMINEE, WHICH THEN, YOU KNOW, KICKS OFF A LENGTHY GENERAL ELECTION, THE LONGEST GENERAL ELECTION WE WILL HAVE SEEN IN OUR LIFETIME. DO YOU FEEL LIKE THAT’S AN ADVANTAGE IN ANY WAY FOR THE BIDEN-HARRIS CAMPAIGN? >> WELL, LOOK, I JUST WANT

TO START OUT BY SAYING HERE’S WHAT WE SAW FROM DONALD TRUMP AND NIKKI HALEY LAST NIGHT. THEY WERE FIGHTING OTHER. THEY WERE FOCUSED ON A DIVISIVE ,FOCUSED ON THE ISSUES THAT LOSE REPUBLICANS ELECTION AFTER ELECTION. >> AND YOU SAW JOE BIDEN AND KAMALA HARRIS HOST A RALLY YESTERDAY IN TALKING ABOUT ONE

OF THE MOST IMPORTANT ISSUES TO AMERICANS RIGHT NOW, ABORTION RIGHTS. AND COMING AFTER THAT, YOU’VE SEEN A HISTORIC ENDORSEMENT, THE UNITED AUTOWORKERS FOR JOE BIDEN. SO WHAT WE’RE REALLY SEEING ON THE SIDE IN THE JOE BIDEN IS A COALESCING AROUND A WINNING POPULAR AGENDA, BECAUSE PEOPLE KNOW THE STAKES

OF THIS ELECTION WHEN COMES TO THE MAGA AGENDA, WHETHER IT’S NIKKI HALEY OR DONALD TRUMP. THEY’VE ENDORSED A NATIONAL ABORTION BAN. THEY WANT TO CUT TAXES FOR THE CORPORATIONS. THEY WANT TO UNDO THE AFFORDABLE CARE ACT. AND WE’RE HAPPY TO HAVE THIS DEBATE BECAUSE WE KNOW THE ELECTIONS ARE ON OUR SIDE.

>> WHEN BROUGHT UP THIS CAMPAIGN KICKOFF YESTERDAY AND WE WATCHED IT AND THEY WERE OF COURSE, WE’RE TALKING ABOUT THEIR PARTY’S RECORD ON ABORTION RIGHTS. BUT THE PRESIDENT WAS INTERRUPTED NUMEROUS TIMES BY THESE PRO-PALESTINIAN PROTESTERS RIGHT THERE AT HIS EVENT. HOW DOES THE CAMPAIGN PLAN TO TACKLE ANGER OR DISSATISFACTION, IF YOU WILL,

AMONG THESE YOUNG AND PROGRESSIVE VOTERS OVER THE PRESIDENT’S HANDLING OF THE . >> FIRST OF ALL, IT’S REALLY IMPORTANT TO UNDERSTAND WE WERE AT A REPRODUCTIVE RIGHTS RALLY TALKING ABOUT AN ISSUE THAT IS RELATED TO DONALD TRUMP TAKING AWAY A CONSTITUTIONAL RIGHT FROM HALF OF THE COUNTRY. AND SO WE ARE SEEING WOMEN

ACROSS THIS COUNTRY. THEY ARE STILL ANGRY. THEY DO NOT WANT TO LIVE THE HORROR THAT KATE COX FACED SO MANY OTHER WOMEN HAVE ALSO FACED. I THINK IT’S IMPORTANT TO UNDERSTAND WE ARE GOING TO CAMPAIGN ON THIS ISSUE AND A WHOLE SUITE ISSUES THAT WE KNOW OUR VOTERS CARE ABOUT.

I THINK WHEN IT COMES TO PROTEST, THE PRESIDENT IS DOING THE IMPORTANT WORK THAT HE NEEDS TO DO AS COMMANDER IN CHIEF. AND HE RESPECTS EVERYBODY’S VIEWS AND PUT THAT IN CONTRAST TO WHAT ARE RUNNING UP AGAINST DONALD TRUMP, WHO BULLIES HIS ENEMIES, ATTACKS THE FREE PRESS PROMISES TO BE A DICTATOR

FOR A DAY IF HE IS ELECTED. AND WE HAVE TO REMIND FOLKS, THAT’S THE CHOICE THAT’S GOING TO BE ON THE BALLOT BOX. AND NEED TO VOTE LIKE OUR DEMOCRACY, OUR FREEDOMS, OUR ABILITY TO DIFFERENT OPINIONS IS ON THE BALLOT THIS YEAR. >> BUT LET’S TALK A LITTLE BIT

MORE ABOUT THIS DIVISION HERE IN THE PARTY. WE’RE TALKING ABOUT THESE YOUNG PROGRESSIVE VOTERS THAT ARE CONCERNED ABOUT HOW HE HANDLED ISRAEL, HAMAS THEY’RE MAKING THEIR VOICES HEARD AND THEY ARE ALSO CONCERNED ABOUT HIS ADVANCED AGE. AND THAT IS SOMETHING THAT CANNOT BE CHANGED. HOW WILL THE CAMPAIGN ADDRESS THAT.

>> LOOK, I THINK YOU’RE GOING TO SEE THE PRESIDENT OUT THERE. THE MORE THAT THE AMERICAN PEOPLE SEE THE PRESIDENT, THE MORE THEY REALIZE MORE ABOUT HIS ACCOMPLISHMENTS AND THE REALITY OF THE MATTER IS, IS THAT HIS EXPERIENCE, HIS EXPERIENCE IN WASHINGTON IS AN ASSET. IT’S WHY WE’VE DELIVERED ON A

HISTORIC CLIMATE THAT’S CREATING GOOD PAYING JOBS ACROSS THE COUNTRY. IT’S WHY WE HAVE THE BEST BIPARTISAN GUN SAFETY LEGISLATION THAT WE’VE SEEN IN WASHINGTON PASS IN MORE THAN THREE DECADES. AND IT’S WHY WE ARE CONTINUING TO DELIVER ON A MIRACULOUS ECONOMIC RECOVERY BEST IN THE WORLD SINCE COVID. >> I DO THINK.

THERE ARE SOME VOTERS THAT WOULD ARGUE ON THE MIRACULOUS RECOVERY. I THINK THERE ARE SOME VOTERS THAT ARE VERY CONCERNED ABOUT HOW EXPENSIVE THEIR GROCERIES ARE AND THINGS LIKE THAT. BUT I KNOW THAT YOU’RE TARGETING SUBURBAN WOMEN. YESTERDAY AGAIN, AT THAT RALLY. BUT THERE ARE OTHER ISSUES PEOPLE ARE WORRIED ABOUT, MAJOR

ISSUES LIKE IMMIGRATION, BORDER SECURITY AND CRIME AS WELL. HOW DO YOU THINK THE BIDEN-HARRIS WILL EXPLAIN NOT ONLY THOSE ISSUES, BUT SOME OF THEIR POLICY THINGS THAT HAVE LED TO THE PROBLEMS THAT WE’RE SEEING? >> YEAH, LOOK, RESPECTFULLY A LITTLE BIT DISAGREE ON THE IDEA THAT THE THINGS

THAT WE DOING ARE, YOU KNOW, CONTRIBUTING TO THE CHALLENGES THAT WE’RE AT THE BORDER WITH THE ECONOMY. WE ARE INHERITING A MESS THAT WE GOT FROM DONALD TRUMP THAT HAS FAILED THE AMERICAN PEOPLE. AND WE ARE STILL, FOR EXAMPLE, REUNITING FAMILIES THAT DONALD TRUMP SEPARATED, AND THAT IS JUST COMPLETELY ANTI-AMERICAN.

BUT LOOK, WE ARE GOING TO TALK ABOUT THE WHOLE SET OF ISSUES THAT MATTER TO THE AMERICAN PEOPLE. WE SAW BEFORE THE MIDTERMS, A LOT OF THE PUNDITS SAYING DON’T TALK ABOUT ABORTION TALK ABOUT THE ECONOMY LIKE IT’S A BINARY CHOICE. WE HAVE TO TALK ABOUT EVERYTHING AND WE

ARE REALLY PROUD TO RUN ON AN AGENDA THAT IS WILDLY POPULAR WITH THE AMERICAN PEOPLE, ESPECIALLY WHEN YOU PUT IT UP AGAINST WHAT DONALD TRUMP IS RUNNING ON TAX CUTS FOR THE RICH FAMILY, SEPARATION, CAGING KIDS, DOING NOTHING TO ACTUALLY ADDRESS THE CRIME PROBLEM, JUST MAKE IT EASIER FOR CRIMINALS TO GET GUNS.

>> IT’S A DEBATE WE’RE HAPPY TO HAVE. KEVIN MUNOZ, I SO APPRECIATE YOUR TIME WITH US TODAY. THANK YOU VERY MUCH FOR JOINING US. AND I WANT TO BRING OUR BIG STORY NOW TO OUR PANEL. SO JOINING TODAY HERE FOR OUR PANEL IS OUR ABC NEWS CONTRIBUTOR AND SIRIUS

XM RADIO HOST MIKE, MUSE, ABC NEWS CONTRIBUTING POLITICAL CORRESPONDENT AND COAUTHOR OF THE POLITICAL PLAYBOOK, RACHEL BAY AND HOST OF THE FIVETHIRTYEIGHT POLITICAL PODCAST GALEN DRUKE AND OUR ABC NEWS CONTRIBUTOR AND OP ED COLUMNIST FOR THE L.A.. L.Z. GRANDERSON. SO THANK YOU ALL FOR BEING HERE. SO, GALEN, LET’S JUMP INTO

SOME NUMBERS HERE THAT FIVETHIRTYEIGHT HAS THAT ESSENTIALLY POINTS ONE OF BIDEN’S WEAKNESSES, WHICH IS WHAT I TRIED TO ASK HIM ABOUT, IS BEING CAUGHT IN THE MIDDLE HERE OF TWO SIDES OF THEIR PARTY. WHAT ARE SOME THOSE AREAS WHERE BIDEN IS TOGGLING HIS PARTY’S STANCE? >> YEAH. SO BIDEN IS STRUGGLING FROM

BOTH HIS LEFT AND RIGHT FLANK RIGHT NOW, WHICH IS THAT ON THE LEFT HE HAS YOUNGER VOTERS WHO DISAGREE WITH HOW THE ADMINISTRATION HAS HANDLED THE WAR IN GAZA ON HIS RIGHT. >> HE HAS MORE INDEPENDENT VOTERS THAT HE WON IN THE 2020 ELECTION. THINK ABOUT THE MORE SUBURBAN

PARTS OF ATLANTA OR PHOENIX THAT HE ACTUALLY WON OVER FROM TRUMP IN 2016, HELPED HIM WIN IN 2020 THAT ARE UPSET ABOUT THE ECONOMY OR AND THOSE ARE REAL CONCERNS. I MEAN, REALLY, THAT WAS SOME SPIN THAT WE HEARD. BUT IF YOU LOOK AT THE HEAD TO HEAD HYPOTHETICAL NUMBERS

RIGHT NOW, IT LOOKS LIKE TRUMP IS BEATING BIDEN ON AVERAGE BY 1 TO 2 POINTS NATIONALLY IN POLLING AND IN THE BATTLEGROUND BY EVEN MORE. >> AND SO THERE ARE REAL CONCERNS. AND IF YOU GO ISSUE BY ISSUE, AMERICANS ARE NOT HAPPY WITH HOW BIDEN HAS HANDLED ECONOMY OR IMMIGRATION OR CRIME.

NO, THEY ARE NOT. AND THEY’RE MAKING THEIR VOICES HEARD. AND SO, L.Z., LOOK, BIDEN’S CAUGHT IN THE MIDDLE BETWEEN THESE PARTY STANCES HERE. WHO’S THE MORE RELIABLE VOTER, RIGHT, FOR THE BIDEN CAMPAIGN? IS IT THE PROGRESSIVES? ARE THEY GOING TO VOTE FOR HIM NO MATTER WHAT?

OR DOES HE REALLY NEED TO GO MORE TOWARDS THESE UNDECIDED MODERATES OR BLACK WOMEN WHO ARE THE BACKBONE OF THE DEMOCRATIC PARTY? THEY’VE ALWAYS BEEN THE BACKBONE OF THE DEMOCRATIC PARTY, SORT OF ALWAYS NEEDS TO START. WHAT ARE THE ISSUES THAT YOUR BACKBONE IS CONCERNED WITH WHEN YOU ABOUT THE REPUBLICANS,

PARTICULARLY DONALD TRUMP? HE’S NOT WORRIED ABOUT ANYONE ELSE OTHER THAN HIS BASE. SO IN MY OPINION, ASK YOUR QUESTION. THE VERY FIRST PEOPLE YOU WORRY ABOUT HAVE ALWAYS HISTORICALLY DEPENDED ON BLACK VOTERS, PARTICULARLY BLACK WOMEN, ARE THEIR CONCERNS. KITCHEN TABLE ISSUES WITH THE ECONOMY. THOSE ARE THE THINGS NEED

TO FOCUS IN ON. THE MOST IMPORTANT THING TO ME IS TO STOP BEING THAT COMPARED TO DONALD TRUMP AND TO BE SOMEONE IN WHICH BACKED JOE BIDEN. YOU KNOW, IN 2020, A LOT OF PEOPLE VOTED FOR JOE BIDEN BECAUSE THEY DIDN’T WANT. TRUMP IS ASKING A LOT

OF AMERICANS AT THAT SAME SORT OF, YOU KNOW, PHILOSOPHY. BUT HE HAS A RECORD NOW. SO HE NEEDS TO FIND ON THE RECORD WHERE HE CAN LIVE AND NOT BE COMPARED TO TRUMP. AND CELEBRATE HIS OWN SUCCESSES . I MEAN, AS GALEN POINTED OUT EARLIER, SO A LOT OF VOTERS

HERE ARE GOING TO BE VOTING TWO PEOPLE THAT THEY DON’T REALLY LIKE. SO IT’S THE RACE TO THE BOTTOM TO QUOTE GALEN AND RACHEL, TO YOU. >> YOU KNOW, WE’RE HEARING ABOUT AN INCREASED NUMBER OF IN CONGRESS WHO ARE NOW SUPPORTING THIS TRUMP NOMINEE AND WHEN MAYBE THEY WERE REALLY SKEPTICAL BEFORE.

SO, RACHEL, CAN WE EXPECT ALL REPUBLICANS IN CONGRESS TO COALESCE BEHIND TRUMP OR? >> IS THERE STILL SOME OUTLIERS THERE? WELL, THERE’S GOING TO BE OUTLIERS, BUT I THINK THE SIGNIFICANT POINT HERE IS WE DON’T SEE A LOT OF THEM RIGHT NOW. IN FACT, THERE’S BEEN A LOT

OF REPUBLICANS WHO HAVE, EXCEPT FOR TRUMP, AS YOU MENTIONED, JUST TRIPPING OVER THEMSELVES TO, KISS THE RING AND ENDORSE HIM. >> I’M TALKING ABOUT PEOPLE WHO SENATOR TED CRUZ OF TEXAS, WHO YOU’LL REMEMBER SOMEONE SUGGESTED THAT HIS WIFE WAS UGLY AND YET HE’S OUT THERE SAYING IT’S TIME UNIFY BEHIND TRUMP.

PEOPLE LIKE NANCY MACE, WHO ACTUALLY TRIED TO OUST FROM HER SEAT, WHO’S NOW BACKING PRESIDENT, AND PEOPLE LIKE FREEDOM CAUCUS CHAIRMAN BOB GOODLATTE, WHO WAS A SUPPORTER RON DESANTIS AND IS NOW EMBRACING TRUMP AFTER THE CAMPAIGN HAS IDENTIFIED HIM AS A TOP TARGET FOR THEM TO TO OUST HIM NEXT ELECTION.

AND I THINK YOU HAVE TO ASK, WHY ARE THEY DOING THIS NOW? A NUMBER OF THINGS. THE REPUBLICANS ARE SEEING THE WRITING ON THE WALL. THEY WANT TO ON A WINNING FORCE. THEY’RE ALSO SEEING THIS POLLING THAT SUGGESTS THAT TRUMP COULD BEAT PRESIDENT JOE BIDEN. AND THAT MAKES THEM FEEL

A LITTLE BETTER. RIGHT. AND THEN LASTLY, DO YOU HAVE A LONG MEMORY AND HE ALSO HAS A REPUTATION HOLDING BRUSHES AND THEY WANT TO BE ON HIS WRONG SIDE. SO THAT’S WHY YOU’RE SEEING THIS COALESCING RIGHT ON CAPITOL HILL. RIGHT. SOMETIMES THEIR SEAT IS AT RISK IF THEY DON’T SUPPORT HIM,

AS WE’VE SEEN HAPPEN TIME AND TIME AGAIN. AND MIKE, TO YOU, WE MENTIONED I MEAN, THIS IS SHAPING UP TO BE THE LONGEST GENERAL ELECTION OF OUR LIFETIME. DO YOU THINK THAT, YOU KNOW, AMIDST DISSATISFACTION OF VOTERS, THEY COULD ALSO START TO EXPERIENCE FATIGUE? >> WE ABSOLUTELY WILL SEE VOTER

FATIGUE IF WE GET MORE THE SAME CONVERSATION ON POLICIES GOING FORWARD. JUST TO TAKE THE CONVERSATION YOU HAD WITH THE SPOKESPERSON REGARDING JUST TWO THINGS AND PUT IT IN CONVERSATION WITH GALIA MENTIONED ABOUT THE ECONOMY AND ABOUT IMMIGRATION FROM THE ECONOMY PERSPECTIVE. YOU KNOW, EVERY DAY ON MY RADIO

SHOW, I’M TALKING ABOUT HOW THE ECONOMY IS SHOWING STRENGTH WITH ALL THE TRADITIONAL INDICATORS OF WHAT A STRUGGLING ECONOMY IS. BUT THE BOTTOM LINE IS THAT WHEN I’M TALKING WITH MY COLLEAGUES AND OUR LISTENERS, THEY’RE STILL NOT FEELING THE EFFECTS OF AN IMPROVING ECONOMY BECAUSE OF THE DAY TO DAY PRICES, GROCERIES

AND EVERYDAY HOUSEHOLD ITEMS, WHICH THEY’RE GOING TO NEED IN PARTICULAR FOR WOMEN IF THEY’RE GOING TO BE THE BASE THAT THEY’RE GOING AFTER, NEEDS TO LOOK AT. WHEN IT COMES TO IMMIGRATION, MOST VOTERS ARE NOT AWARE OF THE COMPLEX OF COMPREHENSIVE IMMIGRATION. SO IT NEEDS TO BE MORE EXPLANATION ABOUT THAT REPUBLICAN SIDE.

IF IT’S MORE OF THE SAME PERSONAL ATTACKS WHEN I CAN PARTY, THAT IS GOING TO EXHAUST THE VOTING PUBLIC. SO IF WE DON’T ADVANCE THESE CONVERSATIONS AND POSITIVE DISCOURSE THEIR PRACTICAL LEVEL, THEN WE WILL SEE EXHAUSTION AND VOTER FATIGUE. AND IT’S GOING TO BE INTERESTING. MIKE, RACHEL, GALEN AND L.Z.,

INTERESTS AND ANSWER ALL THEIR QUESTIONS BECAUSE THEY HAVE A LOT OF THEM. >> WHEN OUR SPOTLIGHT AVIATION GIANT BOEING UNDER FIRE IS CEO DAVID CALHOUN. FACING LAWMAKERS ON CAPITOL HILL TODAY, SOME TOUGH QUESTIONS. AND THIS COMES AMID GROWING SCRUTINY FOR THE COMPANY AFTER A SERIES OF INCIDENTS INVOLVING BOEING JETS, INCLUDING

THAT MIDAIR DOOR WHEN IT FELL OFF AN ALASKA AIRLINES FLIGHT EARLIER THIS MONTH. THE FAA IS ALSO INVESTIGATING AN INCIDENT IN ATLANTA. A TIRE FELL OFF OF A DELTA FLIGHT JUST BEFORE TAKEOFF. I WANT TO BRING BACK OUR PANEL HERE, MIKE MYERS, RACHEL BAY, L.Z. GRANDERSON, AND JOINING

TODAY IS OUR ABC NEWS TRANSPORTATION REPORTER SAM SWEENEY ON CAPITOL HILL. SO THANK YOU ALL FOR BEING HERE WITH US. AND SAM, LET’S START HERE WITH YOU. WHAT ON THE HILL TODAY, WHAT DID BOEING CEO REALLY HAVE TO SAY AND THEN, YOU KNOW, KIND OF WHAT HAPPENS NEXT HERE

FOR THIS AVIATION GIANT? >> WELL, DAVE CALHOUN CAME HERE TODAY. HE ASKED THESE SENATORS TO MEET WITH THEM. YOU KNOW, HE SAID YOU HEARD IN THAT SOUNDBITE EARLIER THAT THIS IS ABOUT TRANSPARENCY AND ANSWERING THE QUESTION BY LAWMAKERS, MANY WHO REPRESENT AREAS OF THE COUNTRY WHERE BOEING IS BIG BIRD.

YES, SENATOR WARNER HAD QUESTIONS. ALSO, MARIA CANTWELL IN WASHINGTON, SHE SAID SHE HAS CONCERNS ABOUT BOEING’S SAFETY CULTURE AND SHE WANTS THE BEST FOR HER EMPLOYEES THERE. BOEING’S EMPLOYEES WHO LIVE THERE IN, WASHINGTON STATE. AND THIS COMES AS THEY PLAN TO SHUT DOWN THE WASHINGTON PLANT WHERE

THE 737 MAX IS MADE TOMORROW SO THEY CAN WORK ON THAT SAFETY CULTURE, ANSWER QUESTIONS AND HELP WORK WITH EMPLOYEES AS THIS CRISIS UNFOLDS. AND RACHEL, WHAT MIGHT LAWMAKERS HAVE LEARNED FROM THIS THAT COULD THEN HELP THEM BETTER PROTECT THEIR TRAVELERS? RIGHT. I MEAN THERE COULD BE A

BILL THAT COMES OUT OF THE COMMERCE COMMITTEE SOMEWHERE, PERHAPS. >> I MEAN, CONGRESS CERTAINLY HAS A CRITICAL ROLE TO DO SORT OF OVERSIGHT IN INVESTIGATE MATTERS OF PUBLIC INTEREST. IT COMES TO BIG SAFETY LAPSES LIKE THIS. I’M SURE THEY’RE GOING TO BE ASKING HOW PLANES WERE ABLE

TO FLY WHEN THEY HAVE THESE DEFECTS. >> RIGHT. I THINK IT IS REALLY INTERESTING, AS DAN JUST MENTIONED, THAT THE CEO OF BOEING IS CLEARLY TRYING TO DO DAMAGE CONTROL AND GET AHEAD OF ANY PUBLIC THAT HE’S GOING TO BE GETTING IN THE COMING WEEKS, BECAUSE YOU CAN

BET HE’S CERTAINLY GOING TO ONE . I BELIEVE CANTWELL SAID THERE’S GOING TO BE A HEARING THAT THAT IS GOING TO COME UP IN THE NEXT COUPLE OF DAYS. AND SO HE’S HUDDLING WITH THE LEADERS OF THE SENATE COMMERCE COMMITTEE, BASICALLY TO SORT OF SMOOTH THINGS OVER AS MUCH AS HE CAN.

BUT THIS IS, AS I MENTIONED, IT’S A CRITICAL ROLE FOR CONGRESS TO SORT OF GET THE BOTTOM OF THIS. AND YOU CAN BET THAT THIS IS GOING TO BE HARD ON AND THAT CEOS GOING TO BE IN THE HOT SEAT ANSWERING THESE QUESTIONS. >> AND IT’S NOT GOING BE PRETTY FLAT. RIGHT.

AND, L.Z., TO YOU, I MEAN, DO YOU SEE BOEING TAKING A HIT HERE WITH ITS TRACK RECORD? MEAN, WE’RE TALKING ABOUT THIS DOOR. WE’RE TALKING ABOUT THE ENTIRELY SEPARATE ISSUE OF THIS . WE ARE FALLING OFF. RIGHT? THAT COULD HAVE JUST BEEN AN ISSUE THAT HAPPENED SPECIFICALLY TO THAT PLANE

WITH THE PERSON THAT WAS SUPPOSED TO PUT ON THE WHEEL. THEY MAY NOT BE RELATED AT ALL . >> BUT HOW ARE AMERICAN PEOPLE GOING TO LOOK AT THAT? WELL, YOU KNOW, IT’S BEEN INTERESTING. YOU KNOW, I TRAVEL A LOT AND WE COMPLAIN ABOUT AIRLINES, BUT WE DON’T NECESSARILY TALK

ABOUT MAKERS OF THE JET PLANE. RIGHT. SO I THINK PART OF THIS CONVERSATION IS ABOUT GETTING THE AMERICAN PEOPLE CAUGHT UP TO WHAT PLANES ARE WITH AIRLINES AND WHICH AND WHICH PLANES GOING TO WHICH DESTINATIONS. YOU KNOW, IT’S NOT NECESSARILY ON TERMS OF WHO’S IN THE BUBBLE OF THIS CONVERSATION

THAT WE WORRY ABOUT IS THE PEOPLE WHO ARE JUST GOING, I JUST WANT TO GET ON THE PLANE I JUST WANT TO BE SAFE. RIGHT. SO IT’S LIKE, HOW DO YOU COMMUNICATE THE SAFETY AS A WHOLE? BECAUSE NO ONE’S REALLY KNOWING IF THEY’RE ON THE PHONE OR NOT SPEAKING.

>> YEAH, I MEAN, UNLESS YOU’RE MY HUSBAND AND JUST SORT OF GEEK OUT ABOUT THE PLANE BEFORE YOU GET ON EVERY TIME HE KNOWS ALL ABOUT THEM, YOU KNOW? BUT IT MIGHT I MEAN, AS PEOPLE START TO PICK THIS APART, I DO THINK THAT THE GENERAL PUBLIC, THE GENERAL TRAVELING PUBLIC

IS RAISING A LOT OF QUESTIONS AND CONCERNS ME. IS BOEING GOING TO BE ABLE TO, YOU KNOW, LET PEOPLE ARE THEY GOING TO TRUST BOEING AGAIN AS SHOULD BE ASKING QUESTIONS, CAN AND SHOULD BE CONCERNED, BUT CAN HAVE YOU ALLOW ME, I’M GOING TO TAKE OFF MY POLITICAL HAT FOR A SECOND

AND PUT ON MY FORMER ENGINEER HAT AND THEN PERFORMING ENGINEERING RELATED FOCUS ON SUPPLY CHAIN MANAGEMENT QUALITY CONTROL OF OUR SUPPLIERS AND MANUFACTURING. I THINK WE’RE TALKING ABOUT THIS ALL WRONG FROM A REGULATORY PERSPECTIVE, WHICH IS GREAT AND IS IMPORTANT, BUT WE NEED START DOING THE DEEP DIVE OF THE QUESTIONS

REGARDING MANUFACTURING QUALITY ,QUALITY ASSURANCE, TOTAL QUALITY MANUFACTURING SIGMA, LOOKING AT THE PROCESSES FROM HOW THEIR SUPPLIERS ARE INSTALLS ALL THE WAY TO WHEN THE PARTS COME IN, SAID BOEING.
