THEY ARE NOT LEAVING HIM.

05:41

WHILE BIDEN IS TRYING TO SHORE

05:43

UP HIS OWN BASES, REACHING OUT

06:10

TRUMP CAMPAIGN PREPARING?

06:12

ARE THERE MULTIPLE WAYS FOR

06:14

THIS CAN GO?

06:15

>> NOBODY KNOWS WHAT THE

06:18

VERDICT IS.

06:19

WE'VE GOT THE PREVIEW OF HOW

06:22

THE TEAM AND TRUMP HIMSELF.

06:25

WE'VE SEEN THE POST LASHING OUT

06:30

AT THE JUDGE.

06:33

IN HIS VARIOUS LEGAL TROUBLES.

06:36

I THINK YOU CAN EXPECT -- IF

06:40

THE VERDICT DOESN'T GO HIS WAY,

06:43

HE WILL CONTINUE TO HAMMER THIS

06:47

MESSAGE.

06:48

HE WILL SAY THIS IS ELECTION

06:53

INTERFERENCE.

06:53

IF HE IS ACQUITTED, YOU CAN SEE

06:56

HIM GOING OUT THERE AND SAYING,

06:57

HEY, LOOK, THEY THREW

06:58

EVERYTHING BUT THE KITCHEN SINK

06:58

AT ME.

07:00

WE'VE ALREADY SEEN THIS JUST

07:02

OVER THE LAST 24 HOURS.

07:05

HE IS ASKING HIS VOTERS AND HIS

07:08

BASE TO SUPPORT HIM.

07:10

THE QUESTION, WOULD YOU STILL

07:11

SUPPORT ME IF I WERE ARRESTED?

07:15

HE IS TRYING TO SELL THE NOTION

07:17

THAT IF THERE WERE A CONVICTION

07:19

IN THIS CASE, THAT SOME VOTERS

07:22

MIGHT THINK TWICE.

07:24

>> THANK YOU SO MUCH, DASHA,

07:27

FOR YOUR REPORTING.

07:48

JURY INSTRUCTION, NOT GETTING

07:50

THE ATTENTION I THINK IT REALLY

07:51

MERITS.

07:51

I WILL START WITH THE CLOSING

07:53

ARGUMENTS.

07:54

THEY ARE DIFFERENT FROM OPENING

07:56

STATEMENTS.

07:57

THE LAWYERS ARE SUPPOSED TO

07:58

STICK TRULY TO JUST THE FACTS

08:00

OF WHAT THEY BELIEVE, THE

08:05

EVIDENCE.

08:06

WHAT ACTUALLY HAPPENED IN THE

08:07

CASE.

08:09

IN CLOSING ARGUMENT, THEY ARE

08:14

ALLOWED TO ARGUE.

08:15

LITTLE BITS AND PIECES OVER A

08:18

LONG TIME FRAME, BUT IT IS NOW

08:22

THE DUTY TO PUT THAT ALL INTO A

08:30

NARRATIVE.

08:30

THEY HAVE REALLY KEPT AN OPEN

08:31

MIND.

08:32

THEY ARE WAITING TO HEAR THE

08:35

CLOSING ARGUMENTS ON BOTH SIDES.

08:37

AND TO HEAR WHAT MAKES SENSE TO

08:39

THEM.

08:40

NEW YORK IS A LITTLE DIFFERENT

08:42

FROM OTHER JURISDICTIONS.

08:43

THEY ACTUALLY DON'T HAVE THE

08:48

PROSECUTION ARGUMENT FIRST.

08:49

THEN THEY HAVE THE REBUTTAL

08:50

ARGUMENT.

08:51

IN NEW YORK STATE, THE DEFENSE

08:54

GOES FIRST, THEN THE

08:56

PROSECUTION GOES.

08:57

THAT IS IT FOR CLOSING

09:00

ARGUMENTS.

09:01

>> YOU CAN REALLY MAP OUT HOW

09:05

THIS IS GOING TO GO.

09:07

THE JURY MIGHT NOT REMEMBER

09:09

EVERYTHING.

09:10

HOW IMPORTANT ARE THE CLOSING

09:12

ARGUMENTS TO LEAVING THE JURY

09:17

WITH THE LAST MESSAGE HERE?

09:20

>> THOUGH I WOULD LOVE TO BE

09:22

THE SIDE THAT GOES LAST, THE

09:24

LAST VOICE THAT THE JURORS

09:25

HERE.

09:26

IN THIS CASE, IT WILL BE THE

09:27

PROSECUTION.

09:28

THEY HAVE THE BURDEN OF PROOF.

09:30

YOU'VE HEARD THIS MANY TIMES

09:35

BEYOND A REASONABLE DOUBT.

09:36

THEY HAVE TO GET 12 JURORS TO

09:38

AGREE UNANIMOUSLY THAT THE

09:39

FORMER PRESIDENT IS GUILTY.

09:40

THE PROSECUTION GETS TO GO

09:41

SECOND.

09:42

WHAT THEY NEED TO DO, THEY NEED

09:45

TO TELL THE JURORS WHICH PIECES

09:48

OF EVIDENCE GO TO SHOW THAT THE

09:53

FORMER PRESIDENT IS GUILTY.

09:55

THEY'VE GOT TO TIE THOSE THINGS

09:56

TOGETHER FOR THE JURORS.

09:59

THE DEFENSE WILL ARGUE THAT

10:03

MICHAEL COHEN HAD -- HE'S

10:07

ADMITTED PERJURY, HE CAN'T TRUST

10:11

ANYTHING.

10:12

10:36

UNUSUAL.

10:36

THEY MAY HELP THE JURY GET

10:41

THROUGH ALL OF THEIR QUESTIONS.

10:43

THE LAWYERS ON THE JURY MAY BE

10:45

ABLE TO POINT THEM TO JURY

10:49

INSTRUCTION. HOPEFULLY THEY

10:51

WILL GO INTO THE JURY WITH THEM.

10:55

THE LAWYERS SHOULD BE ABLE TO

10:58

PINPOINT ANSWERS FOR THE JURORS

11:01

THAT PERHAPS THE JURY WITHOUT

11:34

TRIAL, WHAT IS THE AFTERMATH

11:38

LOOKING LIKE?

11:39

WHEN YOU THINK ABOUT WHAT HE IS

11:41

GOING TO SAY AND DO, NO MATTER

11:42

WHAT THE VERDICT IS.

11:43

>> I THINK THE KEY HERE IS,

11:46

REGARDLESS OF THE VERDICT, IT

11:47

WILL BE THE SAME MESSAGE WE'VE

11:49

HEARD ALL ALONG.

11:51

ALL OF THIS IS A WRONGFUL

11:54

PROSECUTION.

11:54

THAT HE IS INNOCENT OF THE

11:57

CHARGES REGARDLESS OF WHAT THE

11:59

JURY FINDS.

12:00

THIS IS REALLY PART OF HIS

12:01

EFFORT TO CAST HIMSELF AS

12:03

SOMEBODY WHO HAS BEEN THE VICTIM

12:06

OF AN ILLEGITIMATE PROSECUTION.

12:07

THAT ARGUMENT CARRIES A LOT

12:11

WITH THIS POLITICAL BASE.

12:13

THE BIG QUESTION WILL BE WHAT

12:15

THE IMPACT IS GOING TO BE ON

12:16

THOSE VOTERS WHO ARE

12:18

PERSUADABLE.

12:19

SOFT REPUBLICANS, SOFT

12:21

DEMOCRATS, THE CONCERNS ABOUT

12:23

THE ECONOMY, CONCERNS ABOUT

12:27

IMMIGRATION.

12:28

IT IS VERY HARD BETWEEN NOW AND

12:30

THE END OF THE YEAR.

12:32

A LOT OF THIS LEGAL OUTCOME MAY

12:34

BE BAKED INTO PEOPLE'S PUBLIC

12:35

IMPRESSIONS OF THE FORMER

12:37

PRESIDENT.

12:38

AND REALLY FOR THESE VOTERS

12:41

OVER THE PAST SEVERAL MONTHS.

12:43

HE WILL HAVE TO DO WHAT HE CAN

12:45

TO CONVINCE HIM THAT THE

12:46

PROSECUTION IS REALLY NO BIG

12:46

DEAL.

12:47

WHETHER HE CAN GET THERE OR

12:49

NOT, THAT WILL BE THE BIG

12:49

QUESTION.

12:50

>> HE JUST SAID THIS COULD BE

12:52

ALL -- I WONDER, COULD THERE BE

12:55

AN IMPACT IF HE ENDS UP WRITING

12:57

THIS ELECTION?

12:58

RUNNING FOR PRESIDENT AS A

12:59

CONVICTED FELON?

13:01

>> YAMICHE, IF YOU LOOK AT IT

13:06

FROM A POLLING PERCENTAGE, 20%

13:08

OF FOLKS WHO ARE LEANING TOWARD

13:10

HIM.

13:11

IF HE WERE A CONVICTED FELON,

13:13

THAT WOULD BE ENOUGH.

13:14

THAT WOULD BE A REDLINE THAT

13:17

HAVE CAUSED, WHAT CAUSED THEM

13:19

TO RECONSIDER, IF NOT OUTRIGHT

13:23

WITHDRAW THEIR SUPPORT.

13:24

WE WOULD NOT KNOW THE ANSWER

13:26

UNTIL IF AND WHEN HE IS

13:28

CONVICTED, AND THEN THE PUBLIC

13:29

POLLS STARTING TO COME IN

13:34

WITHIN DAYS A WEEKS.

13:36

THE ONLY CONVICTION THEY REALLY

13:38

ARE LOOKING FOR IS THEIR

13:39

CONVICTION ON NOVEMBER 5th.

13:41

WHEN AND IF THE VOTERS REJECT

13:43

DONALD TRUMP'S RUN FOR THE

13:45

PRESIDENT.

13:46

IT COULD VERY WELL BE THAT THIS TRIAL RESULTS IN SOME SORT OF

13:50

TRIAL RESULTS IN SOME SORT OF

13:53

TRUMP MAKING THE CASE.

13:57

IT HAS BEEN THE UNHINGED POST

14:02

OVER AND OVER AGAIN.

14:05

WILL WE SEE THAT REFLECTED IN

14:08

THE POLLS?

14:10

AND IF NOT, WHAT DOES THE TRUMP

14:11

CAMPAIGN DO IN RESPONSE IF THEY

14:14

DO NOT GET CONVICTED?

14:15

DO THEY SAY, SEE?

14:17

IT WAS ALL ABOUT GOING AFTER IT.

14:20

>> I WANT TO STICK WITH YOU.

14:23

MY NBC COLLEAGUES, THEY WILL

14:26

GET MORE AGGRESSIVE ON TRUMP

14:29

ONCE THE TRIAL IS DONE.

14:32

WHAT DO YOU THINK THAT WILL

14:33

LOOK LIKE?

14:33

DO YOU THINK THAT IS A

14:35

BRILLIANT IDEA TO LEAN INTO

14:36

THIS?

14:37

>> I WASN'T SO SURE IT WAS A

14:39

GOOD IDEA TO LEAN INTO THIS

14:39

PARTICULARLY.

14:40

WHETHER OR NOT HE IS CONVICTED,

14:41

HE'S DONE IT.

14:44

ENOUGH TO DISQUALIFY HIM AS

14:46

PRESIDENT IN THE

14:47

POSTPRESIDENTIAL PERIOD.

14:49

EVEN IN THIS CAMPAIGN TODAY, IT

14:51

IS THE DAY ABOUT SUCKERS AND

14:54

LOSERS, TALKING ABOUT HUMAN

14:56

SCUM.

14:57

I THINK IT IS IMPERATIVE FOR

15:00

THE BITING CAMPAIGN TO KEEP

15:03

REMINDING, AND DEFINING TO

15:05

THOSE VOTERS.

15:06

I HAVE JUST NOT TUNED INTO THE

15:09

POLITICAL SPECTACLE LIKE ALL OF

15:11

US JUNKIES ON THE SHOW TODAY.

15:13

REMINDING THEM WHO THIS MAN IS,

15:15

WHAT HE SAYS, AND WHAT HE

15:19

REPRESENTS.

15:19

TRUMP HAD SPOKEN ON SEVERAL

15:21

OCCASIONS ABOUT HIM BEING A

15:22

DICTATOR ON DAY ONE.

15:23

HE IS TALKING ABOUT

15:24

IMPLEMENTING A NEW RADICAL

15:25

SYSTEM THAT WOULD DO AWAY WITH

15:27

THE CIVIL SERVICE.

15:28

AND THE GUARDRAIL THAT KEPT HIM

15:31

SOMEWHAT IN CHECK FROM 2017 TO

15:35

2021.

15:35

IF THE BITING CAMPAIGN DOES

15:37

THAT, THEY WILL BE ON THE

15:38

BETTER SIDE OF THE DEBATE.

15:40

>> I WANT TO PLAY A LITTLE BIT

15:45

MORE OF WHAT HE SAID.

15:47

>> THE LIBERTARIAN PARTY CAN

15:48

MAKE A BIG DIFFERENCE.

15:50

TOGETHER, WE CAN MAKE AMERICA

15:53

FREER THAN EVER BEFORE.

15:57

WE CAN UNLEASH ENERGY.

15:59

WE CAN RELEASE LIMITED

16:02

GOVERNMENT SO THAT THE PEOPLE --

16:06

WE WILL BE UNSTOPPABLE.

16:10

IF WE UNITE, WE ARE UNSTOPPABLE.

16:13

I WILL BE A TRUE FRIEND TO

16:15

LIBERTARIANS IN THE WHITE

16:16

HOUSE.

16:16

>> SO I WILL ASK YOU, WHAT DID

16:23

HE GET OUT OF THIS APPEARANCE?

16:25

>> HE WAS COMMUNICATING A

16:26

MESSAGE TO LIBERTARIANS BEYOND

16:28

THE ONES IN THAT ROOM.

16:29

THE CONVENTION GOERS

16:30

THEMSELVES, THE BASE OF THE

16:32

PARTY, THEY WOULD NOT BE OPEN

16:34

TO THE MESSAGE, SUPPORTING OR

16:36

ENDORSING THE REPRESENTATIVE,

16:38

OR NOMINEE OF THE PARTY.

16:40

I THINK THE ISSUE WAS, COULD HE

16:46

MESSAGE BEYOND? SOME WHO MIGHT

16:49

IDENTIFY AS PRESBYTERIAN.

16:53

HE MADE THOSE PROMISES THAT HE

16:57

WOULD GET INPUT FROM

16:58

LIBERTARIANS ACROSS THE

16:58

COUNTRY.

17:00

THAT HE WOULD BE RECEPTIVE.

17:03

I THINK THE HOPE WAS NOT TO

17:06

CONVINCE PEOPLE IN THAT ROOM.

17:08

IT WAS TO SPEAK TO LIBERTARIANS

17:11

IN THAT ROOM, WHO IF THEY

17:14

DECIDED TO VOTE FOR SOMEBODY

17:16

ELSE, IT MIGHT BE A LARGE

17:18

ENOUGH MARGIN TO SWING THE VOTE

17:20

IN WISCONSIN, PENNSYLVANIA, AND

17:21

OTHERS.

17:22

HE WOULD LIKE TO WIN AND LIKE

17:24

TO DO WELL.

17:26

IT WASN'T ABOUT THE ROOM SO MUCH

17:29

AS WHAT WAS GOING ON BEYOND THE

17:33

ROOM.

17:34

>> INTERESTING THAT YOU THINK

17:35

ABOUT IT THAT WAY.

17:39

I WANT TO SHIFT FOR A MOMENT.

17:41

MY COLLEAGUE, HE CAUGHT UP WITH

17:43

REPUBLICAN SENATE CANDIDATE

17:44

KERRY LAKE OVER THE WEEKEND.

17:49

HERE'S WHAT SHE HAD TO SAY.

17:53

>> I KNOW THE TRUMP SUPPORTERS

17:55

SUPPORT US, AS WELL.

17:58

I'VE SEEN REALLY GOOD POLLING.

18:00

NOT SOME OF THESE BOGUS POLLS

18:02

TO TRY TO SWAY VOTERS.

18:05

I KNOW WHAT THE REAL POLLING IS.

18:07

PRESIDENT TRUMP SUPPORTERS ARE

18:10

ALSO KARI LAKE SUPPORTERS.

18:13

>> HOW NOTABLE IS IT THAT SHE

18:16

IS WANTING TO STICK SO CLOSE TO

18:17

PRESIDENT TRUMP?

18:18

WE'VE SEEN THEM TRY TO KEEP

18:24

DISTANCE BETWEEN THEMSELVES.

18:25

>> YOU KNOW THAT THE REPUBLICAN

18:29

PARTY TODAY IS A TRUMP COLT.

18:32

IF YOU TRY TO BREAK, SHOW ANY

18:33

DAYLIGHT BETWEEN YOURSELF AND

18:37

THE FORMER PRESIDENT, ALSO

18:39

GOING AFTER THAT PERSON

18:40

HIMSELF.

18:40

SHE HAS NO CHOICE.

18:42

WE SAW IT ALSO WITH NIKKI HALEY

18:46

LAST WEEK.

18:48

IT WOULD BE EXPECTED FOR ANYONE

18:50

TO DO.

18:51

I THINK WHAT IS INTERESTING, IN

18:55

A LOT OF STATES, ON THE

18:57

DEMOCRATIC SIDE, THEY ARE

18:58

RUNNING EVEN STRONGER THAN JOE

18:58

BIDEN IS.

19:00

WE MIGHT ACTUALLY SEE A REVERSE COCKTAIL IN SOME OF THESE STATES

19:04

COCKTAIL IN SOME OF THESE STATES

19:06

. THEY MAKE IT EVEN HARDER FOR

19:10

THE NOMINEES TO WIN ON THE

19:14

REPUBLICAN SIDE.

19:15

>> ESPECIALLY WHEN YOU TALK TO

19:16

SOME FRONT-LINE REPUBLICANS IN

19:17

YOUR STATE.

19:18

THEY REALLY TAKE IN A MUCH

19:20

DIFFERENT TONE THAN THEY DID IN

19:21

2020.

19:23

ARE YOU SURPRISED?

19:27

>> IN SOUTHERN CALIFORNIA

19:30

THROUGH THE CENTRAL PART OF THE

19:33

STATE.

19:34

YOU'VE GOT DISTRICTS THAT ARE

19:35

REASONABLY PURPLE.

19:36

IT WILL BE VERY, VERY HARD TO

19:40

EMBRACE FORMER PRESIDENT TRUMP,

19:42

OR TOO HARD TO THE OTHER SIDE

19:45

FOR ANY GIVEN REASON.

19:46

I DO THINK IT WILL BE IMPORTANT

19:48

FOR THEM TO FORGE THEIR OWN

19:52

IDENTITY.

19:54

IT RUNS THROUGH CALIFORNIA.

19:56

THAT MAKES IT A VERY

19:58

INTERESTING DYNAMIC.

20:00

CERTAINLY, THEY WILL BE

20:02

THINKING ABOUT WAYS TO NAVIGATE

20:05

THAT DYNAMIC.

20:06

>> THANK YOU BOTH FOR JOINING

20:08

US.

20:10

>> THANK YOU.

20:12

>> COMING UP, RENEWED PRESSURE

20:15

ON ISRAEL AND THE WHITE HOUSE

20:18

TODAY. THIS IS IN AN AREA WHERE

20:23

CIVILIANS WERE SHELTERING.

20:27

>>> AND EXCLUSIVE REPORTING

20:31

FROM TAIWAN.

20:32

JUST MEETING WITH THE NEWLY

20:33

INAUGURATED PRESIDENT AFTER A

20:35

SERIES OF PROVOCATIVE CHINESE

20:36

MILITARY -- YOU ARE WATCHING MEET THE PRESS NOW.

20:38

>>> NEWS LIVES IN THE NOW. >>> NEWS FOR THE GENERATION OF

20:42

>>> NEWS FOR THE GENERATION OF

20:44

NOW IS NBC NEWS NOW.

20:49

>>> A DEADLY STRIKE ON A CAMP

20:52

IN RAFAH.

20:54

CALLING IT TRAGIC, AND USING A

20:57

WORD IN HEBREW THAT COULD MEAN

20:59

MISTAKE OR MISHAP.

21:02

WHEN ASKED FOR CLARIFICATION,

21:03

NETANYAHU CALLED IT A TRAGIC

21:05

INCIDENT.

21:06

AS YOU CAN SEE HERE, VIDEO OF

21:09

THE AREA WHERE MANY DISPLACED

21:10

CIVILIANS WERE SHELTERING.

21:12

RESCUE WORKERS RACED TO PUT OUT

21:13

THE FIRE.

21:14

THE WHITE HOUSE CALLED THE

21:18

IMAGES HEARTBREAKING, SAYING IT

21:19

WAS ACTIVELY WORKING WITH THE

21:20

MILITARY AND OTHERS ON THE

21:22

GROUND TO FIGURE OUT WHAT

21:24

HAPPENED.

21:25

45 PEOPLE WERE KILLED IN THE

21:25

STRIKE.

21:26

MANY OF THEM, WOMEN AND

21:29

CHILDREN.

21:31

MORE THAN 200 WERE INJURED.

21:35

THE STRIKE KILLED TWO SENIOR

21:36

HAMAS OFFICIALS.

21:38

THE AREA TARGETED WAS NOT PART

21:41

OF THE IDF DECLARED SAVE ZONE.

21:43

WHILE SPEAKING BEFORE

21:44

PARLIAMENT TODAY, PRIME

21:46

MINISTER NETANYAHU SAID ISRAEL

21:47

WILL CONDUCT THE INVESTIGATION

21:50

INTO THE STRIKE.

21:51

IT COMES JUST DAYS AFTER THE

21:53

UN'S HIGHEST COURT ORDERED

21:54

ISRAEL TO IMMEDIATELY HOLD THE

21:57

MILITARY OFFENSIVE IN RAFAH

21:58

BECAUSE OF THE RISKS OF THE

22:00

CIVILIAN POPULATION.

22:01

NBC NEWS INTERNATIONAL

22:02

CORRESPONDENT RAF SANCHEZ IN

22:06

TEL AVIV WITH MORE.

22:08

>> Reporter: THE IMAGES COMING

22:09

OUT OF RAFAH ARE CAUSING SHOCK

22:12

AND SPARKING COME THE NATION --

22:15

CONDEMNATION ALL ACROSS THE

22:17

COUNTRY.

22:18

MANY OF THESE MADE OF PLASTIC,

22:21

WOOD. WHEN THE STRIKE CAME

22:25

CRASHING DOWN, ALL HELL BROKE

22:29

LOOSE, ACCORDING TO SURVIVORS.

22:31

THEY SAY FLAMES RIPPED THROUGH

22:32

THE ENCAMPMENT.

22:34

CHILDREN WERE SCREAMING.

22:36

ULTIMATELY, AROUND 40 PEOPLE

22:38

KILLED, ACCORDING TO THE

22:41

EMERGENCY SERVICES IN HAMAS RAN

22:44

GAZA.

22:45

MANY OF THEM, WOMEN AND

22:47

CHILDREN.

22:48

SOME OF THEM, APPARENTLY BURNED

22:50

TO DEATH.

22:51

PRIME MINISTER BEEBE --

22:54

BENJAMIN NETANYAHU CALLING IT A

22:57

TRAGIC MISHAP.

22:59

SAYING ISRAEL WILL INVESTIGATE

23:00

WHAT HAPPENS HERE.

23:01

THE ISRAELI MILITARY SAYS THE

23:04

STRIKE DID SUCCEED IN KILLING

23:07

TWO SENIOR HAMAS COMMANDERS

23:09

ALLEGED TO HAVE BEEN INVOLVED

23:10

IN THE PLANNING OF ATTACKS IN

23:13

THE OCCUPIED WEST BANK.

23:14

THE IDF SAYS IT TOOK MEASURES

23:17

AHEAD OF TIME TO TRY TO REDUCE

23:19

CIVILIAN CASUALTIES.

23:21

THERE IS NOW AN OPERATION

23:24

UNDERWAY.

23:25

THE IMAGES COMING OUT OF RAFAH

23:28

ARE, QUOTE, HEARTBREAKING.

23:29

THEY SAY ISRAEL HAS THE RIGHT

23:31

TO PURSUE HAMAS AFTER THE

23:33

OCTOBER 7th ATTACK, BUT THAT IT

23:35

MUST TAKE EVERY POSSIBLE

23:38

PRECAUTION TO PROTECT

23:40

PALESTINIAN CIVILIANS BEFORE

23:42

LAUNCHING A STRIKE.

23:43

WE HAVE HEARD STRONGER

23:48

CONDEMNATION FROM PRESIDENT

23:50

MACRON IN FRANCE.

23:52

MANY OF THOSE FAMILIES WHO WERE

23:56

DISPLACED SEVERAL TIMES ARE

23:57

DIGGING THROUGH THE CHARRED

23:58

REMAINS OF WHAT WERE THEIR

24:02

TENTS.

24:02

THEY ARE MOVING ON, HOPING TO

24:04

FIND SAFETY SOMEWHERE ELSE.

24:05

BACK TO YOU.

24:07

>> RAF SANCHEZ , THANK YOU SO

24:10

MUCH FOR THAT REPORTING.

24:12

WE NOW TURN TO ALLIE RAFFA WHO

24:15

WAS AT THE WHITE HOUSE.

24:18

THEY'VE RAISED MANY CONCERNS.

24:19

HOW IS THE ADMINISTRATION

24:21

REACTING TO THIS LATEST RIGHT?

24:22

AND DO WE ANTICIPATE ANY

24:26

REPERCUSSIONS?

24:26

>> YES.

24:27

THAT IS THE BIG QUESTION

24:29

LOOMING OVER THIS AREA WE KNOW

24:31

THIS HAS BEEN AND IS THE WORK

24:34

REALLY SINCE PRIME MINISTER

24:36

NETANYAHU VOWED TO CONTINUE THE

24:40

INVASION OF RAFAH TO 100%

24:44

DESTROY HAMAS, IN HIS WORDS.

24:46

SAYING THAT THE U.S. IS WORKING

24:48

WITH ISRAELI OFFICIALS AND

24:49

PARTNERS TO INVESTIGATE WHAT

24:52

HAPPENED.

24:53

WHILE THEY ARE ACKNOWLEDGING

24:54

HOW DEVASTATING THE IMAGES

24:56

COMING OUT OF RAFAH ARE, THEY

24:57

ARE ONCE AGAIN STRESSING

24:58

ISRAEL'S RIGHT TO DEFEND ITSELF

25:00

AND GO AFTER HAMAS.

25:02

THAT IS WHAT ISRAEL SAYS IT WAS

25:03

DOING WHEN CONDUCTING THE

25:05

STRIKE.

25:06

OVERALL, THIS IS REALLY A

25:09

REFLECTION, THE RESPONSE WE'VE

25:11

SEEN FROM THE WHITE HOUSE.

25:13

REALLY HOW DELICATE OF A

25:15

POSITION THIS ADMINISTRATION

25:17

HAS BEEN.

25:18

THEY BEGAN THEIR GROUND

25:21

INVASION OF RAFAH.

25:22

REMEMBER, THE PRESIDENT HAD

25:23

SAID THAT ANY GROUND INVASION

25:26

OF RAFAH WITHOUT A ROBUST PLAN

25:31

TO RELOCATE PALESTINIANS, MANY

25:33

OF THEM NOW DISPLACED.

25:34

THE WHITE HOUSE WOULD NOT

25:37

SUPPORT THAT MOVE.

25:38

HE SAID THAT WOULD BE A REDLINE

25:40

FOR HIM, AND THAT WOULD FORCE

25:42

HIM TO RECONSIDER THE U.S. AND

25:44

MILITARY SUPPORT.

25:45

EVEN AFTER WE SAW ISRAEL BEGAN

25:47

WHAT WE SAW THEM CALL TARGETED

25:51

AND SPECIFIC STRIKES, THE WHITE

25:55

HOUSE WAS STILL SUPPORTING

25:57

THOSE MOVES.

26:00

THIS STRIKE, IT WAS DESIGNATED

26:07

BY THEM.

26:09

ANY PAUSES OF THOSE STILL

26:12

REMAINS TO BE SEEN.

26:14

>> AND THAT IS AN ISSUE OF THE

26:16

CEASE-FIRE TALKS, WHICH WERE

26:17

HOPEFULLY RESUMING NEXT WEEK.

26:19

HOW MUCH OF THIS INCIDENT --

26:21

HOW MUCH DO YOU THINK THIS

26:23

MIGHT IMPACT AND COMPLICATE

26:25

THOSE EFFORTS WHEN YOU THINK

26:26

THERE ARE MORE CIVILIANS THAT

26:28

HAVE BEEN KILLED?

26:29

>> ABSOLUTELY.

26:30

THAT IS ANOTHER BIG QUESTION

26:31

HERE.

26:32

I'VE SPOKEN WITH OFFICIALS

26:34

ABOUT THIS.

26:35

THEY SAY THAT AS OF RIGHT NOW,

26:37

THE PLAN IS FOR THOSE TALKS TO

26:39

CONTINUE AFTER WE SAW MEETINGS

26:40

OVER THE WEEKEND BETWEEN THE

26:42

CIA DIRECTOR, KOTHARI, AND

26:45

ISRAELI OFFICIALS.

26:47

THE PLAN AS OF RIGHT NOW IS TO

26:50

BUILD ON THAT PROGRESS TO BE

26:51

ABLE TO REACH SOME SORT OF

26:53

AGREEMENT.

26:53

THE QUESTION REALLY REMAINS

26:55

WHETHER HAMAS IS GOING TO BE

26:57

WILLING.

26:58

OR WHETHER THEY WILL BE REALLY

27:00

INHIBITED FROM AGREEING TO ANY

27:02

SORT OF PROPOSAL BECAUSE OF THE

27:05

LATER STRIKES, YAMICHE.

27:06

>> YES.

27:08

A LOT OF QUESTIONS.

27:09

ALLIE RAFFA AT THE WHITE HOUSE.

27:13

THANK YOU SO MUCH.

27:14

>>> UP NEXT, TENS OF MILLIONS

27:16

OF AMERICANS STILL FACING

27:21

27:24

U.S. COULD SEE SUPPORT FOR A

HIGHLY ACTIVE HURRICANE SEASON.

27:47

REMAIN UNDER SEVERE WEATHER.

27:50

ACROSS THE MIDDLE OF THE COUNTRY

27:53

, WHERE THIS VIDEO, A MASSIVE

27:58

CLOUD WAS CAUGHT.

28:00

THE WHITE HOUSE SAID PRESIDENT

28:01

BIDEN SPOKE WITH GOVERNORS OF

28:02

THE STATE AFFECTED BY

28:02

TORNADOES.

28:03

THE STORMS LEFT A TRAIL OF

28:06

DESTRUCTION.

28:06

WIDESPREAD DAMAGE STRETCHING

28:08

FROM TEXAS TO OKLAHOMA, UP TO

28:11

ARKANSAS AND KENTUCKY.

28:12

>>> THIS WAS THE TERRIFYING

28:15

AFTERMATH.

28:16

A TORNADO TORE THROUGH A GAS

28:18

STATION.

28:19

125 PEOPLE WERE SHELTERING

28:25

THERE, EVERYONE INSIDE SURVIVED.

28:27

COAST, PREDICTING AN UNUSUALLY

28:30

ACTIVE HURRICANE SEASON IN THE

28:31

28:59

HOW SHOULD PEOPLE BE LOOKING AT

29:00

THIS UPCOMING STORM SEASON?

29:03

>> THAT'S A GREAT QUESTION.

29:04

THE WHERE THEY KEEP USING IS

29:07

EXTRAORDINARY.

29:08

THIS IS A CASE OF EVERYTHING

29:12

GOING WRONG AT THE SAME TIME.

29:14

WE'VE GOT THE EL NINO, THE

29:18

INCOMING EL NINO -- LA NINA.

29:21

AND THEN THE SUPER, SUPER HOT

29:23

ATLANTIC OCEAN RIGHT NOW.

29:24

THAT CALLS FOR A NUMBER OF

29:29

DIFFERENT THINGS.

29:31

THE GREENHOUSE GASES, THE USE OF

29:35

-- ARE NOT AS PREVALENT IN THE

29:39

ATMOSPHERE ANYMORE.

29:40

AND OTHER THINGS, LIKE A

29:41

VOLCANIC ERUPTION.

29:43

IT IS LATE MAY RIGHT NOW AND

29:46

EXHIBITORS OF WHAT WE ARE

29:48

SEEING ARE SIMILAR TO WHAT WE

29:50

WOULD EXPECT IN AUGUST.

29:51

THAT IS RED BULL FOR HURRICANES.

29:53

MATT YOU ARE SAYING WE ARE

29:55

FEELING AUGUST TEMPERATURES.

29:58

HOW WILL THAT CHANGE THE VIEW

30:01

OF HURRICANES?

30:02

>> IT IS A LITTLE BIT

30:03

COMPLICATED.

30:04

WE DON'T SEE MORE HURRICANES

30:06

BECAUSE OF CLIMATE CHANGE, BUT

30:08

WE DO SEE MORE INTENSE

30:11

HURRICANES. THOSE ARE AGAIN BECAUSE OF THESE

30:14

THOSE ARE AGAIN BECAUSE OF THESE

30:17

ATMOSPHERIC CONDITIONS. WHAT WE

30:21

CAN EXPECT BECAUSE OF CLIMATE

30:23

CHANGE IS THE STORMS TO

30:25

INTENSIFY A LOT FASTER AND BE A

30:28

LOT STRONGER.

30:29

IT REALLY CAUSES PROBLEMS WHEN

30:30

IT COMES TO THE LOSS OF HUMAN

30:34

LIFE AND DAMAGE.

30:35

>> IS SOMEONE WHO GREW UP IN

30:37

MIAMI, YOU TALKED ABOUT THIS IN

30:38

YOUR ARTICLE.

30:39

THERE ARE PEOPLE THAT FEEL

30:42

FARAWAY FROM THE COAST.

30:43

MAYBE THEY AREN'T WORRIED ARE

30:45

PAYING ATTENTION TO THESE.

30:46

WITH WEATHER STORMS, DOES IT

30:49

REALLY INCREASE?

30:50

AND EVEN IF YOU ARE NOT ON A

30:53

BEACHFRONT?

30:53

MATT I AM SO GLAD YOU BROUGHT

30:55

THAT UP.

30:58

THAT IS SO, SO IMPORTANT.

31:02

WE SEE THE EFFECTS OF FLOODING

31:05

FAR INLAND.

31:06

WE SEE THE FLOODING FROM

31:11

HURRICANES.

31:11

ALSO, AREAS THAT ARE NOT

31:13

TRADITIONALLY SEEN AS THE SAME

31:14

LOCATION.

31:14

PEOPLE IN NEW YORK,

31:17

MASSACHUSETTS. THEY SHOULD ALL

31:21

BE PLAYING -- PAYING ATTENTION .

31:23

AGAIN, THE FLOODING IS REALLY

31:26

WHERE WE SEE LOSS OF LIFE FROM

31:29

HURRICANES.

31:30

IT IS VERY FAR INLAND.

31:35

>> PEOPLE ARE THINKING, WELL,

31:37

I'M INLAND.

31:39

HOW SHOULD PEOPLE BE PREPARED?

31:42

WHAT SHOULD PEOPLE BE READY FOR?

31:43

>> YEAH.

31:46

THAT IS A GREAT QUESTION.

31:50

THESE EVENTS ARE SO, SO LOCAL.

31:53

IT REALLY DEPENDS ON THE PLACE

31:54

YOU ARE LIVING.

31:58

FOLLOW THOSE ALERTS.

32:00

IT IS A CLICHI TO SAY PREPARE,

32:06

PREPARE, PREPARE.

32:08

IT MIGHT HAVE MOVED INTO THE

32:11

REGIONS.

32:13

READY.GOV, AND KNOW YOUR FLOOD

32:23

ZONE.

32:23

>> CRAIG, I WANT TO GO TO YOU.

32:26

SHE JUST WALKED US THROUGH WHAT

32:27

INDIVIDUALS CAN BE DOING TO

32:28

PREPARE.

32:29

ORGANIZATIONS LIKE FEMA, THINK

32:31

ABOUT THE FACT THAT THE U.S. IS

32:35

GETTING ALL OF THESE WARNINGS.

32:38

>> I WILL GIVE YOU AN EXAMPLE.

32:44

2010, NOAH SAYS WE WOULD HAVE

32:46

-- I SAID NOTHING.

32:48

WE GET READY FOR EVERY

32:50

HURRICANE SEASON. I THINK THAT IS THE KEY THING.

32:53

I THINK THAT IS THE KEY THING.

32:56

IT HELPS EDUCATE PEOPLE. THEY

32:59

HAVE TO GET READY.

33:02

WE DON'T KNOW WHO WILL GET HIT.

33:04

SO YOU TAKE THIS WITH THE

33:07

UNDERSTANDING THAT EVEN IN A

33:10

QUIET YEAR, WE HAD HURRICANE

33:14

ANDREW.

33:14

2005, WE HAVE ADDITIONAL

33:17

HURRICANES.

33:18

IN 2017, HURRICANES FROM PUERTO

33:21

RICO TO TEXAS.

33:24

IT WILL NOT JUST BE ONE STORM.

33:28

PARTICULARLY FOR FEMA, THEY

33:32

HAVE TO BE FLEXIBLE.

33:36

THEY CAN COME BACK TO BACK.

33:41

2004, 2005, 2017.

33:43

>> WHEN YOU SAID HURRICANE

33:45

ANDREW, IT BROUGHT BACK

33:46

MEMORIES FOR ME.

33:47

IT HIT WHEN I WAS LIVING IN

33:50

MIAMI.

33:51

THAT BEING SAID, NOT ALL BOUTS

33:55

CAN BE RELATED TO THE CHANGE.

33:57

LET'S TALK TO WHETHER OR NOT IN

33:59

CAN BE SEEN AS THE BREAKING

34:03

POINT.

34:04

AND THE ONE WE'VE SEEN IN MORE

34:07

RECENT YEARS?

34:08

>> THEY ARE OT ABLE TO ENSURE

34:10

THESE RISKS.

34:11

IN FLORIDA AND OTHER PARTS OF

34:15

THE COUNTRY.

34:18

THE OTHER THING WE ARE SEEING,

34:21

WHEN THE STORMS HIT, WE ARE

34:28

SEEING A SIGNIFICANT IMPACT.

34:31

IT IS USUALLY PRICED OUT,

34:33

LIVING IN THERE ALTOGETHER.

34:35

WE ARE SEEING THIS FROM

34:37

RENTERS, HOMEOWNERS.

34:38

THIS IS THE THING WE ARE NOT

34:44

REALLY PAYING ATTENTION TO.

34:46

THE PRICE OF HOUSING ESCALATES

34:48

SO FAST.

34:49

MANY PEOPLE CANNOT AFFORD TO

34:52

LIVE IN THEIR AMENITIES.

34:53

>> DO YOU THINK WE WILL SEE AN

34:56

INCREASE BECAUSE OF WHAT YOU

34:58

JUST MENTIONED?

34:59

ALSO THE INSURANCE ISSUES?

35:03

>> WE ALREADY SEE IT.

35:05

IN FLORIDA, YOU SAW WHAT

35:06

HAPPENED ON THE EAST COAST OF

35:07

FLORIDA.

35:08

YOU SAW IT ON THE WEST COAST.

35:11

PEOPLE ARE INCREASINGLY HAVING

35:13

TO MOVE INLAND, DISPLACING

35:16

FARMWORKERS FROM THEIR HOMES.

35:18

THEY ARE GETTING SO BAD THAT

35:20

MANY INDUSTRIES ARE LOOKING AT

35:21

HOW TO HOUSE PEOPLE THEMSELVES.

35:25

IT IS ALREADY TAKING PLACE.

35:28

AND IN OUR CURRENT PROGRAMS,

35:30

THEY REALLY DON'T ADDRESS THE

35:33

LACK OF INSURANCE TYPICALLY FOR

35:36

FLOODING.

35:37

AND AS SHE POINTED OUT, THIS IS

35:41

TAKING PLACE IN AREAS SHE'S

35:44

NEVER SEEN FLOODING.

35:45

THIS WAS IN AREAS THAT HAD

35:48

NEVER FLOODED.

35:49

WE SEE THE RECORD-SETTING

35:55

FLOODING.

35:56

AND PEOPLE TOO OFTEN THINK THEY

36:00

ARE NOT IN THAT FLOOD ZONE.

36:04

THEN THEY FIND OUT RISING WATER

36:07

IS NOT COVERED BY THEIR

36:09

HOMEOWNERS POLICY.

36:09

>> WOW.

36:11

THAT IS IMPORTANT INFORMATION

36:13

FOR PEOPLE TO KNOW WHAT IS

36:15

GOING ON AND ALSO HOW TO

36:16

PREPARE THEM HILLS.

36:18

>> THANK YOU.

36:20

>> AFTER THE BREAK, CHINA WITH

36:25

ITS MILITARY MUSCLES, OFF THE

36:27

COAST OF TAIWAN.

36:30

WE'VE GOT AN EXCLUSIVE INTERVIEW

36:33

WITH THE CHAIRMAN OF THE

36:35

FOREIGN AFFAIRS COMMUNITY IN

36:35

TAIWAN.

36:37

>>> THE FIRE HAS GROWN LEAPS

36:38

AND BOUNDS.

36:39

>> HOW ARE YOU DOING?

36:40

>> PRETTY, PRETTY BAD.

36:44

♪ ♪

36:45

>>> WELCOME BACK.

36:47

A BIPARTISAN CONGRESSIONAL IN

36:49

TAIWAN TODAY STANDING SIDE-BY-

36:52

SIDE WITH THE NEWLY INAUGURATED

36:56

PRESIDENT.

36:57

THE VISIT BY U.S. LAWMAKERS

36:59

COMES AT A PARTICULARLY TENSE

37:05

TIME. CARRYING OUT TWO DAYS OF

37:08

CARRYING OUT TWO DAYS OF

37:12

MILITARY TALKS.

37:15

CONGRESSMAN MICHAEL McCALL,

37:18

CHAIR OF THE FOREIGN AFFAIRS

37:20

COMMITTEE, AND THE LEADER OF

37:24

THAT SIDED THOSE MILITARY DRONES

37:26

IS THE REASON THE U.S. CONTINUE

37:30

STRENGTHENING THE CAPABILITIES.

37:31

NBC'S RYAN NOBLES SAT DOWN WITH

37:35

McCALL FOR AN EXCLUSIVE ONE-ON

37:36

ONE INTERVIEW.

37:38

TAKE A LISTEN.

37:40

>> THE CHINESE GOVERNMENT SENT

37:44

A VERY SPECIFIC MESSAGE.

37:46

WHY?

37:47

>> BECAUSE WE SUPPORT TAIWAN.

37:50

WE SUPPORT FREEDOM AND DEMOCRACY

37:53

. IT IS VERY CLOSE TO WHERE WE

38:01

ARE SITTING RIGHT NOW.

38:03

WARNING YOU NOT TO COME HERE,

38:08

THAT IT WOULD BE IN VIOLATION.

38:11

AND THEN THAT IS ONE OF THE

38:14

LARGEST ONES WE'VE SEEN

38:16

SURROUNDING THE ISLAND,

38:19

BASICALLY EXECUTING WHAT THEY

38:21

WOULD DO IN THE EVENT OF A WAR,

38:24

ALL BECAUSE OF DEMOCRACY.

38:27

IT IS LIKE A PROCESS, A

38:30

MILITARY EXERCISE GAME TO

38:32

PROCESS DEMOCRACY.

38:34

THEY DON'T LIKE THE FACT THAT

38:38

PRESIDENT LAI WON, FAIR AND

38:41

SQUARE, THROUGH A PEACEFUL WAY.

38:43

>> HOW CONCERNED SHOULD

38:46

AMERICANS BE ABOUT THIS QUICK

38:48

IT SEEMS AS THOUGH CHINA IS

38:50

DOING THIS ON A MORE REGULAR

38:51

BASIS, WITH THEY ARE MOVING

38:53

INTO AREAS THAT ARE CONTROLLED

38:54

BY TAIWAN.

38:55

YET, THEY HAVE YET TO TAKE THAT

38:58

STEP OF A FORMAL INVASION.

38:59

IS THAT SOMETHING THAT IS

39:00

IMMINENT?

39:03

IS IT INEVITABLE?

39:09

OR IN SOME CIRCUMSTANCES?

39:11

>> IT IS WHAT EXPERTS LIKE

39:15

MYSELF THINK ABOUT EVERY DAY.

39:17

HOW CAN WE STOP?

39:19

HOW CAN WE STOP THE AGGRESSION

39:22

AND CONFLICTS IN THE WAR.

39:26

YOU HAVE TO GET INSIDE THEIR

39:32

HEAD.

39:33

NOW, SINCE HE DID NOT WIN THE

39:37

ELECTION, THE PROTESTS WITH ALL

39:41

THE WARSHIPS.

39:42

WHAT IS MY NEXT MOVE HERE?

39:47

IF HE THINKS THIS NOW, LIKES TO

39:53

TAKE BACK THE ISLAND.

39:56

THIS WOULD BE WAY TOO SEVERE.

40:00

AND THE REWARD OF DOING THAT.

40:03

THE FIRST THING, YOU GOT TO GET

40:07

THESE. I'VE SIGNED OFF ON THE

40:12

22 WEAPON SYSTEMS.

40:13

CONGRESS VOTED $2 BILLION OF

40:16

FINANCES FOR TAIWAN TO HELP

40:18

PREPARE THEM.

40:20

AND SHOWING THE DETERRENCE TO

40:22

CHINA THAT IT IS NOT WORTH

40:30

INVADING.

40:31

THAT MEANS THE SUBMARINES, ANTI-

40:36

SHIP WEAPONS.

40:37

ALSO, THEY WOULD BE HIT WITH A

40:43

BARRAGE.

40:44

>> SO WHEN THEY SAY DETERRENCE,

40:49

DOES THAT ALSO INCLUDE THE

40:51

POSSIBILITY THAT THE U.S. WOULD

40:52

BE INVOLVED IN ANY LEVEL OF

40:54

DEFENSE IF IT WERE TO COME TO

40:55

THAT?

40:56

>> THAT IS THE CALCULATION WE

41:00

WOULD HAVE TO THINK ABOUT.

41:02

WE DON'T WANT TO DRAW REDLINES

41:03

RIGHT NOW.

41:04

THAT IS A REDLINE FOR THEM.

41:07

AND THAT WOULD RESULT IN AN

41:10

INVASION. SO FOR US, THE QUESTION WOULD

41:11

SO FOR US, THE QUESTION WOULD

41:14

BE FOR THE AMERICAN PEOPLE.

41:17

IF THEY DID NOT PROVOKE AN

41:20

INVASION, AND THEY WERE

41:23

PEACEFUL, BUT YET INVADED BY

41:27

COMMUNIST CHINA.

41:28

THAT IS SOMETHING WE THINK

41:29

ABOUT ALL THE TIME, RIGHT?

41:31

MY COMMITTEE, I DEAL WITH THE

41:34

ISSUES. MY COMMITTEE HAS THE

41:35

POWER TO DECLARE WAR.

41:37

THAT IS ULTIMATELY A QUESTION

41:39

FOR THE AMERICAN PEOPLE.

41:42

>> NBC'S RYAN NOBLES JOINS US

41:45

LIVE.

41:46

RYAN, CONGRATULATIONS ON THE

41:48

EXCLUSIVE ONE-ON-ONE INTERVIEW.

41:49

THIS IS THE FIRST TIME U.S.

41:53

OFFICIALS ARE MEETING WITH

41:54

TAIWAN AND THEIR PRESIDENT.

41:55

WHY WAS IMPORTANT FOR THESE

41:56

LAWMAKERS TO GO?

41:57

GIVEN ALL OF THE HOTSPOTS AROUND THE WORLD?

42:00

AROUND THE WORLD?

42:02

>> THERE IS NO DOUBT, BEING

42:07

HERE, TALKING TO THE PEOPLE OF

42:09

TAIWAN, GETTING AN

42:10

UNDERSTANDING OF THIS

42:11

RELATIONSHIP AND THE DYNAMIC

42:12

BETWEEN THE ISLAND AND THE

42:12

MAINLAND OF CHINA.

42:15

FROM AN INSIDERS PERSPECTIVE,

42:17

LIVING THOUSANDS OF MILES AWAY,

42:19

WHICH MOST OF US DO, YOU WOULD

42:21

TAKE THESE ACTS OF AGGRESSION

42:22

AS THE SPECIFIC CALLING OUT OF

42:24

THIS CONGRESSIONAL DISTRICT,

42:26

TELLING THEM NOT TO COME AS A

42:28

REASON TO AVOID FURTHER

42:29

CONFLICT.

42:30

IT IS CLEAR THAT THESE MEMBERS

42:32

OF CONGRESS, THE GOVERNMENT

42:34

HERE IN TAIWAN, THEY BELIEVE IT

42:36

IS IMPORTANT TO STAND UP TO

42:38

CHINA, TO DEMONSTRATE THAT YOU

42:39

ARE NOT NECESSARILY OF RATE OF

42:43

THEIR NAME AGGRESSION.

42:44

SO FOR THIS DELEGATION TO GET

42:46

THOSE WARNINGS FROM CHINA, TO

42:48

STILL COME, IT IS A

42:50

DEMONSTRATION THAT IT IS A FIRM

42:52

COMMITMENT TO TAIWAN AND THEIR

42:54

FUTURE.

42:55

NOT JUST THAT THAT COMES WITH

42:58

AGE, BUT IT COMES WITH WEAPONS,

43:01

MILITARY SUPPORT, MANY

43:03

DIFFERENT FACTORS.

43:04

YOU REALLY GET A SENSE THAT

43:06

THEY APPRECIATE THAT, AND THAT

43:08

THEY FEEL LIKE THEY CAN STAND

43:11

UP TO CHINA.

43:12

NOT ONLY THE U.S., BUT MANY

43:13

OTHER DEMOCRACY COUNTRIES

43:14

AROUND THE WORLD HAVE A SIMILAR

43:17

LEVEL OF RESPECT AND SUPPORT FOR

43:19

TAIWAN IN ITS ABILITY TO SELF

43:24

GOVERN, YAMICHE.

43:25

>> YOU SAID THERE WAS A FIRM

43:27

COMMITMENT HERE, AND ALSO

43:28

TALKING ABOUT THE FUTURE.

43:29

IS THERE ANY CONCERN IN TAIWAN

43:31

THAT IT COULD CHANGE IF FORMER

43:33

PRESIDENT TRUMP WERE TO COME

43:35

BACK INTO OFFICE?

43:37

>> Reporter: YOU KNOW, IT IS SO

43:40

INTERESTING TO ACTUALLY BE

43:41

HERE.

43:41

THERE IS NOWHERE IN THE WORLD

43:43

THAT YOU CAN GO AND ESCAPE THE

43:45

SECTOR OF DONALD TRUMP.

43:47

EVERYONE KNOWS WHO HE IS.

43:49

WE SPENT A FULL DAY THERE ON

43:50

SUNDAY.

43:51

EVERYONE KNOWS WHO DONALD TRUMP

43:53

IS.

43:54

THERE DOES APPEAR TO BE A LEVEL

43:56

OF ANXIETY, BOTH FOR AND

43:59

AGAINST DONALD TRUMP.

44:01

IF YOU WERE TO WIN THE UPCOMING

44:02

PRESIDENTIAL ELECTION.

44:04

THAT POLICY WILL NOT CHANGE. THAT IS SOMETHING THAT CHAIRMAN

44:06

THAT IS SOMETHING THAT CHAIRMAN

44:09

McCALL BELIEVES, AS WELL.

44:14

>> IN FACT, THE VOTE ON TAIWAN,

44:18

IT WAS ALMOST UNANIMOUS.

44:20

THEY HAD THE STRONGEST SUPPORT

44:21

OUT OF ANY OF THEM.

44:24

AND AGAIN, I DON'T SEE EITHER

44:28

TWO CANDIDATES TAKING A WEEK

44:33

POSITION ON CHINA.

44:34

THE CURRENT PRESIDENT SAID

44:38

THINGS ABOUT SUPPORTING TAIWAN.

44:39

AND I KNOW PRESIDENT TRUMP

44:41

DOES, AS WELL.

44:42

I DON'T SEE THOSE POLICY

44:47

CHANGES.

44:48

>> SO THEY BELIEVE THE STATUS

44:51

QUO WILL INCUR, REGARDLESS OF

44:53

WHAT THE ADMINISTRATION IS.

44:55

THAT IS WHAT THE PEOPLE OF

44:59

TAIWAN STRIVE FOR.

45:00

AT THE SAME TIME, THEY DO NOT

45:03

WANT CHINA TO ATTEMPT TO

45:05

FORCEFULLY REALIGN THE ISLAND

45:08

WITH THE REST OF THE COUNTRY.

45:11

>> RYAN NOBLES, THANK YOU SO

45:13

MUCH.

45:15

LIVE FROM TAIWAN FOR US.

45:17

>>> STILL TO COME, THE

45:20

PRESIDENT PAYS TRIBUTE TO

45:26

AMERICANS FALLEN SERVICEMEMBERS.

45:29

>>> THE CHALLENGE OF CHILDCARE

45:30

>> MENTAL HEALTH BIG PICTURE.

45:32

WHY IS IT SO TOUGH RIGHT NOW?

45:34

>> NEWS FOR THE GENERATION OF

45:39

NOW IS NBC NEWS NOW.

45:42

>>> FREEDOM HAS NEVER BEEN

45:43

GUARANTEED.

45:44

EVERY GENERATION HAS TO EARN

45:48

IT, FIGHT FOR IT, DEMOCRACY,

45:53

THE AGREED TO -- IT MATTERS.

45:58

OUR DEMOCRACY IS MORE THAN JUST

46:00

THE GOVERNMENT.

46:01

IT IS THE VERY SOUL OF AMERICA.

46:05

HOW WE'VE BEEN ABLE TO ADAPT.

46:07

IT IS WHAT WE'VE ALWAYS EMERGED

46:09

FROM EVERY CHALLENGE STRONGER

46:11

THAN WE'VE GONE IN.

46:12

COMING TOGETHER AS ONE NATION

46:15

UNITED. JUST AS OUR FALLEN

46:17

HEROES HAVE KEPT OUR COUNTRY

46:18

SAFE.

46:20

WE MUST KEEP FAITH WITH THEM.

46:23

>>> WELCOME BACK.

46:25

THAT WAS PRESIDENT BIDEN THIS

46:28

MORNING.

46:29

SPEAKING ABOUT THE SACRIFICE OF

46:30

FALLING U.S. SERVICEMEN AND

46:32

WOMEN THIS MEMORIAL DAY, AFTER

46:35

LAYING A WREATH AT THE TOMB OF

46:39

THE UNKNOWN CHILDREN.

46:41

HONORING THOSE WHO DIED, WE

46:44

HAVE NEW REPORTING ON THE

46:47

UNIQUE OBSTACLES FACING OUR

46:49

MILITARY MEMBERS AND THEIR

46:50

FAMILIES.

46:51

PARTICULARLY WHEN IT COMES TO

46:53

CHILDCARE.

46:55

THE LARGEST EMPLOYER AND

46:58

CHILDCARE OPERATOR IN THE

47:00

COUNTRY.

47:01

THERE ARE STILL 9000 KIDS ON

47:03

THE WAITLIST. JOIN ME NOW FOR

47:06

MORE OF HER REPORTING, NBC NEWS'

47:10

SHANNON PETTIS.

47:13

HE DID A REMARKABLE JOB. WHAT

47:16

DID YOU HEAR FROM THOSE

47:19

FAMILIES?

47:19

AND DO YOU THINK THIS IS

47:21

GETTING WORSE?

47:23

>> ANYONE IN THE PAST COUPLE

47:26

YEARS, THEY KNOW ABOUT THE

47:30

STRUGGLE IT COULD BE.

47:33

THEY MOVE FREQUENTLY EVERY 1-2

47:38

YEARS.

47:39

THERE ARE OFTEN MONTH LONG WAIT

47:44

LISTS.

47:45

IT DOESN'T WORK FOR MILITARY

47:48

FAMILIES.

47:48

OFTEN TIMES, THEY ARE STATIONED

47:51

IN PLACES WITH LIMITED

47:54

CHILDCARE OPTIONS.

47:55

AT THE SAME TIME, THE DEFENSE

47:57

DEPARTMENT DOES PROVIDE

48:00

MILITARY CHILDCARE. LIKE EVERY

48:02

CHILDCARE CENTER, THEY HAVE BEEN

48:04

STRUGGLING TO HIRE WORKERS, AS

48:06

WELL.

48:07

YOU HAVE THOUSANDS OF KIDS ON

48:09

THESE WAIT LISTS.

48:10

ALL OF THAT HAS CREATED A LOT

48:12

OF FINANCIAL AND EMOTIONAL

48:15

STRAIN.

48:16

IT IS AN ADVOCACY GROUP FOR

48:20

MILITARY FAMILIES.

48:21

THIS IS WHAT SHE SAID SHE'S

48:23

BEEN HEARING AND SEEING.

48:25

>> WHAT WE ARE FINDING RIGHT

48:27

NOW, WE CAN GET THESE TWO

48:29

INCOMES.

48:31

THE FAMILIES ARE SUFFERING.

48:33

THERE ARE SERVICEMEMBERS

48:37

WORKING TWO JOBS.

48:39

THE NUMBER ONE REASON THEY TELL

48:41

US THEY CAN'T GET THOSE JOBS IS

48:42

LACK OF CHILDCARE.

48:44

>> SHE TOLD ME IN A SURVEY THAT

48:48

THEY FOUNDED A THIRD OF MILITARY

48:50

SPOUSES, THEY CAN'T FIND THE
