Q & A
What is the current weather situation that is causing concern across the central United States?
-There is a dangerous tornado outbreak affecting multiple states including Texas, Oklahoma, and Nebraska. Tornado emergencies have been declared in parts of Nebraska with large tornadoes on the ground threatening population centers.
What was the impact of the tornadoes on the infrastructure and residents in the affected areas?
-The tornadoes have caused significant damage, ripping roofs off homes and leaving a path of destruction. Tens of millions of people are at risk, and there is a potential for more severe weather including flooding, hail, and strong winds over the weekend.
What is the latest development in Donald Trump's hush money trial?
-Donald Trump's longtime executive assistant, Ronna Graff, testified in court, confirming contacts were saved on the company's computer system for Karen McDougal and Stormy Daniels, two women who claim to have had affairs with the former president.
What did President Biden indicate about his willingness to debate Donald Trump?
-President Biden expressed in a radio interview with Howard Stern that he is happy to debate Donald Trump, although he did not specify when or how many times.
What is the situation regarding pro-Palestinian demonstrations on college campuses?
-Pro-Palestinian demonstrations are spreading across college campuses, leading to crackdowns by the police. Some universities are grappling with growing tensions over the war in Gaza, and some commencement ceremonies have been canceled, such as at the University of Southern California.
What findings did NBC News uncover in their investigation of Israeli air strikes in Gaza?
-NBC News found that there were at least seven deadly strikes in areas that the Israeli Defense Forces (IDF) had designated as safe. This includes zones in Rafah's Al Zuhur neighborhood, which was identified as one of three evacuation zones in a leaflet drop over Gaza.
What is the update on King Charles' health and his return to royal duties?

However, pasteurization is shown to be effective, and there is currently only one known case of minor symptoms in a person related to direct contact with infected cattle.
Why are some Tesla owners trying to sell their vehicles?
-Tesla owners are trying to sell their vehicles due to plummeting resale values as the company lowers prices on new models, making currently owned Teslas less valuable.
What is the situation with the small town of Potosi, Wisconsin, and how did it revitalize itself?
-Potosi, Wisconsin, which saw its population decline after its major employer, the Potosi Brewing Company, shut down in the 1970s, has managed to revitalize itself by rebuilding the brewery. The brewery now packages more than 80 million cans per year and hosts the National Brewery Museum and annual festivals, attracting 70,000 tourists a year.
What is the current state of the electric vehicle market in terms of resale value?
-The resale value of electric vehicles (EVs) is dropping dramatically, ten times faster than traditional cars. The average used car price for an EV fell nearly 32% in the past year, compared to a decline of just over 3% for gas-powered cars.
What are the main concerns of potential electric vehicle buyers according to Keith Boseman?
-According to Keith Boseman, who has been selling used cars for four years, the main concerns of potential electric vehicle buyers are not about resale value but about battery life and infrastructure.

A tornado emergency has been declared in parts of Nebraska, and the coverage includes dramatic footage of the storms and their aftermath. The segment also discusses the potential for further severe weather, including more tornadoes, flooding, hail, and strong winds over the weekend, with tens of millions of people at risk.

This part of the script covers legal proceedings related to former President Donald Trump's hush money trial, with new witnesses being called, including his longtime assistant. The segment touches on the claims of two women who allege affairs with Trump and the involvement of American Media Inc.'s former CEO, David Pecker. Additionally, President Biden's interview with Howard Stern is mentioned, where he expresses willingness to debate Trump, and the ongoing pro-Palestinian demonstrations on college campuses, with particular focus on the University of Southern California's decision to cancel its commencement ceremony.
💥 NBC News Investigation: Israeli Air Strikes and Gaza
An NBC News investigation is highlighted, focusing on Israeli air strikes in Gaza, specifically in areas that were designated as safe by the Israeli Defense Forces (IDF) but still resulted in civilian casualties. The report details several deadly strikes in zones that were considered evacuation zones and supposedly safe, contradicting the IDF's assurances.

>>> BACK WITH OUR
SERIES, "THE FUTURE OF
THE ROAD."
WITH THE ELECTRIC
VEHICLE MARKET HITTING
SOME BUMPS, SOME
OWNERS ARE FINDING
TROUBLE WHEN THEY TRY
TO RESELL THEM.
HERE'S CHRISTINE
ROMANS.
>> Reporter: EVERYONE
KNOWS THE MINUTE YOU
DRIVE A NEW CAR OFF
THE LOT, ITS VALUE
DEPRECIATES, BUT FOR
ELECTRIC VEHICLES, THE
DROP IS DRAMATIC, TEN
TIMES FASTER THAN
TRADITIONAL CARS
ACCORDING TO A RECENT
STUDY SHOWING THE
AVERAGE USED CAR PRICE
FOR AN EV FELL NEARLY
32% IN THE PAST YEAR
COMPARED WITH THE
DECLINE OF JUST OVER
3% FOR GAS-POWERED
CARS.
>> RIGHT NOW I AM
TRYING TO OFFLOAD MY
TESLA.
I WANT TO SELL IT
BECAUSE THE VALUE FOR
TESLAS HAS BEEN
PLUMMETING.
>> Reporter: SOME
TESLA OWNERS
FRUSTRATED AS THE
COMPANY LOWERS THE
PRICES ON NEW MODELS
MAKING CURRENTLY OWNED
TESLAS LESS VALUABLE.
>> THIS INVESTMENT, I
WILL LOSE OVER
$30,000.
>> Reporter: FALLING
RESALE PRICES JUST
ANOTHER FACTOR HOLDING
SOME PEOPLE BACK FROM
SWITCHING OVER TO
ELECTRIC VEHICLES.
WITH SO MANY ALREADY
EXPRESSING CONCERN
ABOUT RANGE ANXIETY
AND BATTERY
INFRASTRUCTURE
GRANDMOTHER'S
HOUSE IN TEXAS,
HOW MANY STO.
>> IF I WANT TO MAKE
IT FROM HERE TO MY
GRANDMOTHER'S HOUSE IN
TEXAS, HOW MANY STOPS
WOULD I HAVE TO MAKE
TO GET THERE?
>> Reporter: KEITH
BOSEMAN HAS BEEN
SELLING USED CARS FOR
FOUR YEARS.
>> RESALE VALUE IS NOT
THEIR NUMBER ONE
CONCERN?
>> NO, HONESTLY.
THAT'S NOT THE NUMBER
ONE QUESTION I GET.
IT'S BATTERY LIFE.
>> Reporter: EVs MADE
UP 7.3% OF NEW CAR
SALES EVEN WITH
GOVERNMENT REBATES AND
DEALER INCENTIVES.
>> THERE'S SO MUCH
DISCOUNTING GOING ON,
IT'S REALLY HAMMERING
USED CARS, ESPECIALLY
THOSE USED EVs,
SOMETIMES THE DOUBLE
DOWN EFFECT WHERE A
LOT OF THAT IS PUSHING
USED CAR PRICES DOWN.
>> Reporter: THE IRONY
THAT LOWER PRICES FOR
NEW CARS COULD HURT
DEMAND FOR EVs OVERALL
AS RESALE VALUES ARE
DRIVEN DOWN.
CHRISTINE ROMANS, NBC
NEWS, JERSEY CITY, NEW
JERSEY.

TOWN THAT SAVED ITSELF

LOCAL TRADITION.

TOWN'S SECOND WIND.

OVER A PINT BEGINS IN
1852 WITH THE BIRTH OF
THE POTOSI BREWING

POTOSI'S POPULATION
PLUMMETED.

LOCAL ARTIST, GARY
DAVID, BOUGHT IT FOR
$6,300.

MEMORIES OF THE
FOREFATHERS WHO CAME
BEFORE US AND THOUGHT
IT WAS WORTH THE
EFFORT AND RISK.
>> Reporter: THIS
INSURANCE AGENT
LAUNCHED THE POTOSI
FOUNDATION TO BRING
THE JOBS BACK.

THE JOBS TO ME.

SMALL TOWN ALIVE
THROUGH BEER.
>> YEP.

THEY FUND-RAISED.

OTHER BEVERAGE
COMPANIES FROM ACROSS
THE COUNTRY.
INDUSTRY BUZZ
FOLLOWED.
POTOSI IS NOW HOME TO
THE NATIONAL BREWERY
MUSEUM AND ANNUAL
