THE NEW WORLD RECORD ON THE FIELD, THE INSTANT CLASSICS IN VOLLEYBALL AND BASKETBALL AND FOR THE LAST TIME IN THESE GAMES, KEIR SIMMONS'S FAVORITE MOMENT AS HE PREPARES FOR HIS OWN PERSONAL BEST FOR THE LIVE SHOT HE WILL DO FOR US LATER IN THE SHOW. >>> WE ARE COMING ON THE AIR WITH DRAMATIC BODY CAMERA VIDEO SHOWING THE MOMENT A POLICE OFFICER CLIMBED ONTO THE ROOF WHERE A WOULD-BE ASSASSIN WAS GETTING READY TO OPEN FIRE ON FORMER PRESIDENT TRUMP. THIS IS THE VIDEO SHOWING A BUTLER TOWNSHIP PENNSYLVANIA POLICE OFFICER CLIMBING ON THE ROOF BEFORE DROPPING BACK DOWN. POTENTIALLY BECAUSE THERE WAS CONCERN THE SHOOTER COULD TURN HIS RIFLE ON THE OFFICER. THERE IS NO AUDIO FROM THAT MOMENT THAT VIDEO CAPTURE THE OFFICER'S REACTION TO WHAT HE SAW. >> WAIT THIS CLOSE, BRO. HE TURNED AROUND ON ME. >> SERIOUSLY HE WAS ON THAT LEFT SIDE. >> THE SUSPECT, WAS ABLE TO GET SEVERAL SHOTS OFF IN THE MOMENTS AFTER THE OFFICER CLIMBED THE ROOF HURTING THE FORMER PRESIDENT AND KILLING A BYSTANDER BEFORE HE WAS THEN KILLED BY A SECRET SERVICE SNIPER. TOM WINTERS IS ALL OVER THESE DEVELOPMENTS. TALK US THROUGH WHAT WE SEE AND HEAR BECAUSE THERE ARE NEW INSIGHTS BASED ON CONVERSATIONS BETWEEN THE OFFICERS AND WHAT THE VIDEO SHOWS. >> SOME OF THE MOST IMPORTANT EVIDENCE TO LAW ENFORCEMENT OFFICIALS WHEN THEY INVESTIGATE A CRIME OF THE THINGS PEOPLE IMMEDIATELY SAY AFTER SOMETHING IS HAPPENED BECAUSE IT'S AT THAT MOMENT THE MEMORY IS MOST CLEAR, THAT THEY ARE REACTING AND IN THE MOST GENUINE WAY TO WHAT TRAUMA OR SHOCK THEY JUST SAW THE VIDEO YOU PLAYED FOR US AND THE VIDEO WE LOOKING AT NOW CAPTURES A MOMENT. WE DON'T SEE IT BECAUSE THE BODY WORN CAMERA IS WORN APPROXIMATELY CHEST LEVEL SO WE DON'T SEE IT AS HE TRIES TO GET ON THE ROOF AND IMMEDIATELY DROPS BACK DOWN BECAUSE ACCORDING TO THE SECRET SERVICE TESTIMONY AND THE TIMELINE OF EVENTS, IT'S 30 SECONDS AFTER HE GETS ON THE ROOF WHERE HE SEES THOMAS MATTHEW CROOKS TURNED TO HIM WITH HIS RIFLE AND POINT AT HIM THAT HE JUMPS DOWN, RADIOS AND 30 SECONDS LATER SHOTS WERE FIRED AT THE FORMER PRESIDENT. BUT A LOT OF THIS OVER THE PAST SEVERAL WEEKS HAS BEEN HOW COULD THAT HAVE HAPPENED. WE HEARD TODAY FROM A BUTLER TOWNSHIP POLICE DEPARTMENT MEMBER AND WHAT HE SAYS HAPPENED IN THE BACK AND FORTH WITH THE SECRET SERVICE LEADING UP TO THIS EVENT. LET'S TAKE A LISTEN. >> [ BLEEP ] I TOLD THEM TO POST A GUY OVER HERE. I TOLD THEM THAT. THE SECRET SERVICE. I TOLD THAT [ BLEEP ] TUESDAY. I TOLD THEM TO POST [ BLEEP ] GUYS OVER HERE. >> IN ADDITION TO THAT HE LATER SENT ON THE TAPE HE HAD A DISCUSSION WITH THE SECRET SERVICE ON TUESDAY. THE SHOOTING WAS ON A SATURDAY OR TUESDAY, HE IS TALKING TO SECRET SERVICE WHERE HE SAID THEY SHOULD HAVE BEEN POSTED BACK THERE, BACK THERE ON THE VIDEO IS BEHIND THE BUILDING OR BUILDINGS WERE EVENTUALLY CROOKS WAS ABLE TO GET ON TOP OF AND FIRE SHOTS AT FORMER PRESIDENT TRUMP, EIGHT ROUNDS IN TOTAL. THAT'S THE REACTION WE ARE GETTING FROM POLICE OFFICERS IN THE SECOND AS AFTER THIS HAPPENED AND CLEARLY THEY WERE UPSET THAT THEY WERE RESPONDING TO THIS AT ALL BASED ON WHAT THEY SAY THEY TOLD THE SECRET SERVICE. WE ARE STILL WAITING ON A RESPONSE FROM THE SECRET SERVICE AND WE HAVE REACHED OUT TO THEM. >> WE'VE SEEN THIS WEDGE BETWEEN THE LOCALS AND THE STATE AND THE FEDERAL OFFICIALS ON THIS. GIVEN YOUR EXPERTISE ON THIS STORY AND POTENTIALLY THE MOST IMPORTANT EVIDENCE WE'VE SEEN SINCE THE ATTEMPT HAPPENED AND THE INVESTIGATION INTO HOW THE FAILURES OCCURRED, DOES THIS RAISE OTHER QUESTIONS? BRING US INSIDE YOUR REPORTER'S NOTEBOOK WHAT OTHER PATHS DOES THIS OPEN UP? >> IT'S CRITICAL WE GET ANSWERS FROM THE SECRET SERVICE IN THIS INVESTIGATION AS TO WHO WAS TOLD WHAT AND WHEN. AND CLEARLY THERE WAS A WALK THROUGH. THIS HAPPENS ALL THE TIME. THEY GET EVERYBODY INVOLVED. THIS WAS IN NEW YORK CITY WOULD BRING IN THE NYPD AND SAY WHAT DO YOU SEE AS A POTENTIAL THREAT OR PROBLEM WITH THIS BUILDING? OR THIS STREET OR THIS AVENUE? AND THEY GO THROUGH IT BUT THIS AROUND THE TABLE AND EVERYONE INKS ABOUT WHAT ARE THE THINGS SOMEBODY COULD DO AND HOW WILL WE COVER THAT? THAT APPEARS TO HAVE TAKEN PLACE HERE IF WE BELIEVE THE OFFICER IN WHAT IS CLEARLY AN IMMEDIATE REACTION AFTER THE EVENT. WHO WAS HE TALKING TO? WHAT WAS SAID. IN THE CRITICAL QUESTION I HAVE, ACTUALLY TWO QUESTIONS. ONE, DID ANYBODY GO BACK TO THE BUILDING AND CHECK DO WE HAVE OFFICERS WHERE WE NEED THEM TO BE? IS THE SECRET SERVICE WHERE WE NEED THEM TO BE? ARE WE ON THE ROOF? WHO IS RESPONSIBLE FOR CHECKING THE MATH? AND IT'S CLEAR FROM THE FIRST VIDEO, THIS VIDEO WE LOOKING AT NOW, THAT THE OFFICER DID ALERT THAT THIS PERSON WAS ON THE ROOF Tropical Storm Debbie Hits North Carolina . AND THE FACT THERE WERE TWO SEPARATE COMMAND POST AND THE INFORMATION COULD NOT BE RELAYED REAL-TIME WILL BE A BIG COMPONENT OF THIS INVESTIGATION GOING FORWARD. >> WINTER. THANK YOU VERY MUCH. LOTS TO FOLLOW. >>> AND LOTS TO FOLLOW DOWN SOUTH BECAUSE WE ARE ON THE GROUND AS TROPICAL STORM DEBBY CARVES A PATH OF DANGEROUS DESTRUCTION ACROSS THE SOUTH. SLAMMING NORTH CAROLINA. THIS IS THE SCENE OUTSIDE RALEIGH WHERE A TORNADO RIPPED APART A HOME IN MIDDLE SCHOOL. ONE PERSON WAS KILLED. THE GOVERNOR SAID THAT STATE IS FACING UNRELENTING PAIN AND DESTRUCTION. AND THAT THIS IS GIVING YOUR DEJA VU IT'S BECAUSE THIS IS THE SECOND TIME THIS SAME STORM HAS MADE LANDFALL AND IT'S A TRIPLE THREAT WITH A TON OF RAIN, FLASH FLOODING AND TORNADOES. CLOSE TO 100,000 PEOPLE ARE IN THE DARK ACROSS THE CAROLINAS AS THE STORM RIPS THROUGH, KNOCKING DOWN POWER LINES IN ITS PATH. IT WILL NOW MOVE FURTHER NORTH WITH TENS OF MILLIONS ALONG THE THOUSAND MILE STRETCH IN ITS PATH ALL THE WAY UP TO CANADA. LET'S GET TO PRISCILLA THOMPSON IN NORTH CAROLINA AND IT'S STORY AFTER STORY OF PEOPLE WHOSE LIVES HAVE BEEN CHANGED BY THE STORM SYSTEM AND ITS DAMAGE. >> Reporter: ABSOLUTELY. THE GOOD NEWS TODAY IS A LOT OF THOSE FLOODWATERS THAT RUSHED INTO THOSE COMMUNITIES OVERNIGHT IS STARTING TO RECEIVE BUT I WILL TELL YOU THE THREAT THAT IS STILL RISING AND THAT ARE THE RIVERS. WE'VE BEEN HERE THE PAST THREE HOURS AND HAVE HAD TO MOVE OUR CREW ABOUT 50 FEET BECAUSE OF HOW QUICKLY THE RIVER IS RISING. IT IS EXPECTED TO REACH MAJOR FLOOD STAGE SO IT WILL CONTINUE TO RISE BEFORE CREST. AS WERE WATCHING THESE RIVERS WE ARE ALSO IN COMMUNITIES WHERE FOLKS ARE CLEANING UP. WE WERE IN A COMMUNITY 20 MINUTES FROM HERE THAT WENT UNDER A VOLUNTARY EVACUATION OVERNIGHT AS FLOODWATERS RUSHED INTO THE DOWNTOWN AREA. THEY SAID WITHIN AN HOUR THEY HAD THREE FEET OF WATER AND SOME OF THOSE BUSINESSES AND PEOPLE FROM THE COMMUNITY ARE COMING OUT TO HELP PEOPLE GET FURNITURE AND GET THINGS THAT THEIR BUSINESSES AND PUT THINGS HIGHER UP. I SPOKE TO FOLKS IN THE COMMUNITY AND I WANT TO PLAY WHAT THEY HAD TO SAY. >> IT LOOKED LIKE A LAKE. WHERE WE ARE STANDING NOW WE WOULD'VE BEEN IN SHINBONE, KNEE- DEEP WATER. IT'S OUR FOURTH STORM IN THE LAST 12 OR 15 YEARS. >> Reporter: THAT IS FLOODED LIKE THIS? >> IT LOOKED REALLY FAMILIAR BUT NOT IN A GOOD WAY. WHEN SOMETHING LIKE THIS HAPPENS, WE ALL JUMP IN AND DO WHAT WE CAN AND TAKE IT SERIOUSLY. >> Reporter: TRAGICALLY WE DID SEE THAT TORNADO ROLE THROUGH OUTSIDE OF RALEIGH. ONE PERSON WAS KILLED BRINGING THE DEATH TOLL FROM THE STORM TO SEVEN AS IT CONTINUES TO MOVE NORTH. 70,000 PEOPLE HERE AND NORTH CAROLINA ARE WITHOUT POWER. >> THANK YOU. >>> NEW DETAILS ON THE PLANNED ATTACK ON TALUS WAS CONCERTS AND BEGIN WITH OFFICIALS SAYING ONE OF THE SUSPECTS CONFESSED THAT HE WANTED TO KILL AS MANY AS POSSIBLE WITH KNIVES AND EXPLOSIVES AT ONE OFER SHOWS AND THEN DIE BY SUICIDE. OFFICIALS FINDING ASSEMBLED EXPLOSIVE DEVICES INSIDE HIS HOME, ALONG WITH VAST AMOUNTS OF AL QAEDA AND ISIS MATERIAL. ABOUT 24 HOURS AGO WE BROUGHT YOU THIS AS BREAKING NEWS. THE CONCERT ORGANIZES DECIDED TO CANCEL ALL THREE SWIFT SHOWS SET TO START TONIGHT AND GO INTO THE WEEKEND AFTER OFFICIALS ARRESTED TWO SUSPECTS. TAYLOR SWIFT'S CONCERT MANAGER SAID PART OF THE REASON THEY DECIDED TO CANCEL IS BECAUSE ONE OF THE SUSPECTS ACTUALLY WORK AT THE VENUE FOR DAYS. THE CANCELLATIONS ARE STILL A DISAPPOINTMENT TO FANS. >> KIND OF A ONCE-IN-A-LIFETIME OPPORTUNITY TO COME WITH MY PESTY TO SEE TAYLOR SWIFT SO I'M A LITTLE BUMMED. >> WE PLANNED ALL YOUR TO BE HERE SO WHAT A HUGE DISAPPOINTMENT FOR OUR FRIENDS AND OUR KIDS? >> WE WERE JUST HEARTBROKEN TO HEAR IT WAS CANCELED. >> AND THERE'S GOT OUT IT WAS CANCELED, THERE WERE A LOT OF TEARS. >> QUESTIONS NOW ABOUT WHAT THE SITUATION MEANS FOR OTHER EVENTS PLANNED IN THAT CITY THE NEXT FEW DAYS INCLUDING FOUR MEGA COLDPLAY CONCERTS AT THE END OF THE MONTH. A LOT OF NEW DETAILS OF COME OUT SINCE WE WERE UNPACKING THIS WHEN IT WAS HAPPENING YESTERDAY. TALK US THROUGH WHERE THE INVESTIGATION STANDS BECAUSE IT SOUNDS LIKE IT HAS THE POTENTIAL TO BE VERY SERIOUS. >> EXTREMELY SERIOUS AND IT APPEARS THIS WAS A CLOSE CALL. WE LEARNED THAT U.S. INTELLIGENCE PROVIDED THE ORIGINAL TIP TO AUSTRIAN AUTHORITIES THAT LED THEM TO FIND THE SUSPECT. APPARENTLY HE POSTED A MANIFESTO PLEDGING A LIST -- ALLEGIANCE TO ISIS A FEW WEEKS BEFORE AND THAT MAY HAVE CONTRIBUTED TO THEM FINDING HIM. THEY SEARCHED HIS HOUSE AND FOUND A MACHETE, EXPLOSIVES, CHEMICALS, ICES AND AL QAEDA PROPAGANDA. HE HAS NOW CONFESSED, WE ARE TOLD, ANY PLAN TO KILL AS MANY AS HE COULD, AND HIMSELF. AND THIS UNDERSCORES THE THREAT FROM RADICAL ISLAM, PARTICULARLY IN EUROPE. >> Reporter: TAYLOR SWIFT HAS OTHER SHOWS. AND HER CROWDS ARE HUGE. TONS OF PEOPLE TURN OUT AND SHE'S ONE OF THE WORLD'S BIGGEST STARS AND SHE'S HEADING TO LONDON NEXT PICK THE MAYOR SAID THOUGH SHOWS FOR NOW WILL GO ON AS PLANNED. BUT TALK ABOUT THE CONCERN AROUND THE WORLD NOW. AUSTRALIA JUST RAISE IT TAYLOR THREAT LEVEL. FEELS LIKE SOME PLACES ARE GETTING TO BE ON EDGE. >> WE THOUGHT WE WERE OUT OF THE WOODS WITH THIS ISLAMIC EXTREMIST TERRORIST THREAT BUT IT SEEMS TO ME WE ARE SEARCHING AND THESE ARE DIFFICULT TO FERRET OUT BECAUSE THEY ARE LONE WOLVES. THERE IS NO EVIDENCE OF CONNECTION TO SPECIFIC ISIS PEOPLE. THEY WERE INSPIRED ONLINE AND THAT CAN HAPPEN ANYWHERE. IN 2017 IT WAS AN ATTACK IN MANCHESTER ON AN ARIANA GRANDE CONCERT. BRITISH AUTHORITIES ARE MINDFUL THEY SAY THEY ARE STEPPING UP SECURITY. YOU CAN'T STOP EVERY OUTDOOR Trump Commits To 3 Debate CONCERT VENUE. YOU HAVE TO LIVE YOUR LIFE AND THAT'S ALL THEY INTEND TO DO WITH VIGILANCE. >> THANK YOU. >>> WE HAVE SEEN FORMER PRESIDENT TRUMP COMMIT TO THREE DEBATES NEXT MONTH ON THREE DIFFERENT NETWORKS. IN HIS FIRST PUBLIC APPEARANCE SINCE VICE PRESIDENT HARRIS ANNOUNCED TIM WALZ OF MINNESOTA AS A RUNNING MATE. MR. TRUMP HAS SAID HE WILL BE AT THESE THREE DEBATES WHAT ABOUT VICE PRESIDENT HARRIS? HERE'S WHAT SHE SAID A COUPLE MINUTES AGO. >> DONALD TRUMP AGREED TO THREE DEBATES. WILL YOU BE PARTICIPATING IN ALL THREE? >> I HAVE ALWAYS BEEN ON RECORD THAT I'M LOOKING FORWARD TO DEBATING DONALD TRUMP AND WE HAVE A DATE OF SEPTEMBER 10th AND LOOKING FORWARD TO IT. >> THE VP RESPONSE COMING AFTER A LONG PRESS CONFERENCE FROM FORMER PRESIDENT TRUMP WHO AT VARIOUS POINTS PERSONALLY INSULTED HARRISES INTELLIGENCE, RAN THROUGH A LIST OF CLAIMS THAT ARE NOT TRUE AND SEEMED ANNOYED BY THE TALK OF CROWD SIZES AT HARRIS-WALZ RALLIES MAKING A CONTROVERSIAL COMPARISON BETWEEN THE CROWD HE SPOKE TO ON JANUARY 6 AND THE CROWD WHO WATCHED MLK THE I HAVE A DREAM SPEECH. >> THE BIGGEST CROWD I'VE EVER SPOKEN AND UNSPOKEN TO THE BIGGEST CROWDS. NOBODY HAS SPOKEN TO CROWDS BIGGER THAN ME. IF YOU LOOK AT MARTIN LUTHER KING WHEN HE DID HIS SPEECH, HIS GREAT SPEECH, AND YOU LOOK AT HOURS, SAME REAL ESTATE. SAME EVERYTHING. THE SAME NUMBER OF PEOPLE, IF NOT WE HAD Trump Takes Questions At Press Conference MORE. >> OKAY. OBVIOUSLY NOT THE CASE. WE SEE A TALE OF TWO CAMPAIGNS EMERGE WITH DIFFERENT STRATEGIES. WE HAVE TEAM COVERAGE ACROSS BOTH CAMPAIGNS. >>> BREWSTER IS IN DETROIT WITH THE VICE PRESIDENT THAT WE START WITH GARRETT HAIG OUTSIDE OF MR. TRUMP'S MAR-A-LAGO CLUB. YOU WERE IN THE ROOM WHEN THIS WENT DOWN AND THIS IS SIGNIFICANT BECAUSE IT WAS THE FIRST TIME WE WOULD SEE DONALD TRUMP ON CAMERA AND PUBLIC TAKING QUESTION SINCE GOVERNOR WALZ WAS ANNOUNCED AS A RUNNING MATE HERE. IT WAS A LOT OF STUMPY AND RALLY GRIEVANCES WE HEARD FROM BEFORE, BUT IT'S ALSO TELLING US WHERE HIS HEAD IS THAT STRATEGY WISE IN A RACE THAT IS EXTREMELY COMPETITIVE. >> Reporter: THAT'S RIGHT. IF THERE'S ONE ISSUE DONALD TRUMP WILL LIKELY EXAGGERATE IT'S CROWD SIZE AND IF THERE ARE TWO ISSUES, THE SECOND IS POLLING ANTEDATE WE SAW HIM DO BOTH. THAT IS PARTLY HIS RESPONSE TO WHAT HAS BEEN A SURGE FROM HARRIS, IF NOT WIDELY OVERTAKING DONALD TRUMP IN THE POLLS, WHICH SHOW THIS VERY MUCH A NECK AND NECK CAMPAIGN, AT LEAST ERASING AN ENTHUSIASM GAP THAT EXISTED ON THE DEMOCRATIC SIDE WHEN IT WAS JOE BIDEN AT THE TOP OF THE TICKET. THE MAIN POINT OF THIS NEWS CONFERENCE TODAY WAS YOU HAVE A NEWS CONFERENCE AT ALL AND TO TRY TO PUT THE HARRIS CAMPAIGN ON THE BACK FOOT FOR WHAT IS BEEN A STRATEGY OF AVOIDING QUESTIONS THAT THEY DON'T HAVE TO TAKE. AND THE OTHER BIG POINT WAS TO TRY TO PUT THIS DEBATE INTO A SPOTLIGHT AS DONALD TRUMP DID WITH THIS MOMENT HERE WHERE HE SAID HE WOULD DO AT LEAST THESE THREE DEBATES WE KNOW ABOUT. >> THE DEBATES SEPTEMBER 10 SEEMS TO BE A GO WITH ABC NEWS. QUESTION MARKS ON THE REST BUT WHAT'S INTERESTING HERE IS THE WAY HE HEARD THE FORMER PRESIDENT TALK ABOUT THE RACE. I THINK IT WAS YOU WHO ASKED HIM WHAT HE HAS SEEN AND WHAT HE THINKS IT IS ABOUT THE HARRIS CAMPAIGN THAT HAS INJECTED SUCH ENTHUSIASM INTO DEMOCRATS AND HE RESPONDED, SHE IS A WOMAN AND WENT ON TO TALK ABOUT IDENTITY POLITICS-TYPE STOP IN HIS VIDEO. THE STRATEGY, YOU HAD A CHANCE TO UNPACK THIS WITH SENIOR ADVISERS SEEMS TO BE NOT NECESSARILY TO WIN SWING VOTERS BUT SUPERCHARGE A BASE THAT ALREADY EXIST. HE SUGGESTED 75% OF AMERICA IS HIS BASE. THERE IS NO POPULAR BOLLINGER POPULAR VOTE RESULTS THAT SHOW THAT TO BE TRUE. >> Reporter: THAT'S MOSTLY RIGHT BUT THE WAY WE THINK ABOUT SWING VOTERS IN THIS ELECTION HAS TO CHANGE HER FOR TALKING ABOUT WHAT THE TRUMP CAMPAIGN STRATEGY IS. IT'S MOSTLY INTERNET STRATEGY TO GET THE PEOPLE THEY KNOW WHO VOTED FOR DONALD TRUMP IN THE PAST TO VOTE FOR DONALD TRUMP AGAIN IN A RACE WHERE THEY THINK TURNOUT WILL BE DOWN FROM WHAT WE SAW IN 2020. WILL BE ABOVE 2016 BUT SOMEWHERE IN THE SWEET SPOT. THE IDEA OF TARGETABLE, PERSUADABLE VOTERS ISN'T SUBURBAN MOMS. IT ISN'T NIKKI HALEY VOTERS. IT'S MOSTLY WHITE, MEN, WHO ARE A LITTLE BIT YOUNGER AND NOT AS ENGAGED IN THIS POLITICAL PROCESS AS FOLKS WHO WATCH THE NEWS EVERY DAY MIGHT BE. THAT'S WHY HE DOES PODCASTS AND HE WAS ON A STREAMING PLATFORM USUALLY USED TO WATCH PEOPLE PLAY VIDEO GAMES ON MONDAY. THAT'S WHY HE PAYS ATTENTION TO GET UFC FIGHTS AND TALKS TO THAT AUDIENCE. THAT'S WHO THEY SEE AS THE PERSUADABLE VOTERS WHO THEY HAVE TO CONVINCE. NOT NECESSARILY TO VOTE FOR DONALD TRUMP BUT TO SHOW UP AND VOTE. THAT IS PART OF THE WAY THEY LOOK AT THIS CAMPAIGN AND IT SPEAKS TO SOME OF THE TACTICAL AND STRATEGIC DECISIONS WE'VE SEEN HIM MAKE THAT ARE SO PERPLEXED POLITICAL VETERANS AS TO WHY HE'S NOT DOING THE TRADITIONAL CAMPING THINGS YOU EXPECT THE REPUBLICAN TICKET TO DO. THAT'S NOT HOW THE CAMPAIGN SEES THE RACE DEVELOPING. Kamala Harris To Do More Media Interviews >> SO WHAT'S NEXT? HE HEADS TO MONTANA? >> Reporter: THAT'S RIGHT. RAISING MONEY AND HOLDING A RALLY IN MONTANA, MOSTLY FOR THE REPUBLICAN SENATE CANDIDATE THERE NOT A COMPETITIVE GENERAL ELECTION STATE FOR DONALD TRUMP. >> THANK YOU. LET ME GO TO YOU WITH THAT ONE ON ONE--ISH WITH THE VICE PRESIDENT ASKING ABOUT THAT DEBATE PROPOSAL. THERE'S BEEN A LINE OF CRITICISM FROM FORMER PRESIDENT TRUMP THAT SHE HAS NOT DONE ANY MEDIA INTERVIEWS SINCE SHE ANNOUNCED SHE WAS GOING TO TAKE THE TOP OF THE TICKET AND BECAME THE NOMINEE FOR PRESIDENT. THE HARRIS CAMPAIGN IS SUGGESTING THAT WILL CHANGE THE NEXT FEW WEEKS. >> Reporter: YEAH. THEY ARE PICKED THEY SAY YOU CAN EXPECT A JOINT INTERVIEW IN THE NEXT COUPLE OF WEEKS, THOUGH IT'S LIKELY THAT WILL TAKE PLACE AFTER THE DEMOCRATIC NATIONAL CONVENTION. WHEN YOU TALK TO CAMPAIGN AIDES AND ADVISERS THEY ACKNOWLEDGE THEY DO NEED TO SPEAK MORE TO THE MEDIA. THERE IS SOME SELF-AWARENESS THERE. THEY SAY YOU CAN EXPECT TO SEE HER TALKING TO LOCAL MEDIA AND NATIONAL MEDIA. ALSO TALKING TO SOCIAL MEDIA INFLUENCERS. YOU CAN EXPECT TO SEE HER MORE BUT THERE IS AN ACKNOWLEDGMENT THAT SHE HAS NOT BEEN DOING THAT MUCH. WE DO KNOW THAT SHE HAS BEEN TUCKED AWAY DOING VICE PRESIDENTIAL SELECTION. SHE'S HAD TO BUILD THIS CAMPAIGN FROM A POINT WHEN YOU HAD PRESIDENT BIDEN DROPPING OUT SOMEWHAT SUDDENLY. THERE IS AN AWARENESS THEY NEED TO ENGAGE A BIT MORE. AND IF YOU LOOK AT WHAT HAPPENED EARLIER TODAY, THERE IS A HINT THEY ARE PLANNING TO DO THAT. >> WHAT IS NEXT FOR HARRIS AND PRESIDENT BIDEN, WHO WILL BE IN DELAWARE AND A LITTLE BIT FOR THIS OFF-CAMERA MEETING WITH HIS NOW FORMER CAMPAIGN STAFF? >> Reporter: OFF-CAMERA AND BEHIND CLOSED DOORS SO IT'S NOT A RALLY. IT'S NOT LIKE YOU WILL SEE HIM ON STAGE OR SEE THEM TOGETHER. THAT IS SOMEWHAT OF AN OPEN QUESTION. HE WAS ASKED ABOUT THAT AND IT SEEMED AS IF YOU WANTED TO GET OUT THERE BUT DEFERRED TO WHAT THE CAMPAIGN, THE HARRIS CAMPAIGN, IS DOING. LOOK AT THIS POLLING AND YOU GET A SENSE OF WHY. THERE IS SOME HESITATION THERE. WHEN PRESIDENT BIDEN WAS THE NOMINEE, YOU HAD A SIGNIFICANT AMOUNT OF THE VOTE, 33%, SAYING THEY WERE SATISFIED WITH BIDEN. NOW THAT NUMBER IS 81% OF DEMOCRATS SAY THEY ARE SATISFIED WITH HARRIS AS THEIR NOMINEE. I THINK THERE IS AN OPPORTUNITY TO TALK ABOUT THE CAMPAIGN TRYING TO DEFINE THE BP AND THE GOVERNOR. THAT'S PART OF THE REASON. IT SEEMS LIKE HE'S TRYING TO GIVE THEM SPACE TO DO THAT. >> YOU SAW THAT MOMENT OF YOU GETTING THAT QUESTION INTO VICE PRESIDENT HARRIS. HOW DID THAT WORK AND YOU HAD YOUR PHONE READY? YOU TAKE A LOT OF SELFIES? >> Reporter: THERE WERE A LOT OF YELLING. Stock Market Up After Worst Week Since 2022 ALONG THE ROPE LINE KEPT TRYING TO ASK THE QUESTION AND I FINALLY WENT TO THE END AND THAT'S WHERE WE HAD SOME LUCK IN GETTING IT ANSWERED. >> THANK YOU VERY MUCH. >>> BREAKING NEWS PICKED THE S&P CLOSING WITH ITS BEST DATE SINCE 2002. THREE DAYS AFTER IT SAW ITS WORST DATE SINCE 2022. TAKE A LOOK AT EVERYTHING IN GREEN. THEY DOUBT, THE S&P AND NASDAQ PICK A FEW DAYS AGO WE WERE TALKING ABOUT HOW WORRIED INVESTORS SEEM TO BE BECAUSE OF LAST WEEK'S WORSE THAN EXPECTED JOBS REPORT AND CONCERNS THE BED NEEDED TO CUT INTEREST RATES TO AVOID A RECESSION. THE CALEB SILVER IS JOINING US NOW. HOW WAS IT FROM MONDAY TO NOW THIS IS WHAT'S HAPPENING HERE? IS THIS WHERE THE MARKETS ARE ON THIS ROLLER COASTER AND WE NEED TO SIT BACK AND CHILL? >> ENTER WHAT I WERE ONLY DOWN ABOUT A HALF A PERCENT ON THE S& P. SOMETIMES BAD NEWS IN THE ECONOMY IS GOOD NEWS FOR THE STOCK MARKET AND GOOD IS FOR THE ECONOMY IN BADNESS WITH THE STOCK MARKET. GOOD NEWS IS GOOD NEWS BECAUSE WE GOT LOWER-THAN-EXPECTED WEEKLY JOBLESS CLAIMS. EVERY DATA POINT MATTERS NOW THAT THE JUNE AND JULY UNEMPLOYMENT REPORT ROSE TO 4.3% SO WERE LOOKING AT DATA AND THIS WAS GOOD NEWS. MAYBE WE DON'T HAVE A RECESSION. MAYBE THE UNEMPLOYMENT RATE WILL NOT GO UP SO YOU SAW ENTHUSIASM COMING BACK TO THE STOCK MARKET TODAY. ALL SECTORS ARE HIGHER. THEY BOTH STARTED RUNNING AGAIN. WE STILL HAVE FRIDAY AND WE ARE A LONG WAY FROM THE REST OF THE YEAR AND THE ELECTIONS? >> AND I SHOULD REMIND PEOPLE, MY PEOPLE, NORMAL, NON-ECONOMY NERDS HERE THAT TYPICALLY THE ADVICE FOR FOLKS IS TO SIT BAC . IF YOU'RE NOT DAYTRADING STOCKS, DON'T STRESS ABOUT YOUR 401(K) ON A DAY-TO-DAY BASIS. IS STILL THE OPERATIVE THINKING? >> ABSOLUTELY PICKED THE STOCK MARKET AVERAGE BETWEEN 8 AND 10% A YEAR. Boeings New CEO Hits The Ground Running I HAD FRIENDS ASKING IF THEY SHOULD SELL AND I SAID GO TO BED AND LET'S TALK TOMORROW. >> VERY GOOD. CAN I GET ON THAT TEXT CHANGE AS I HAVE QUESTIONS FOR YOU? THANK YOU PICKS AT BOEING'S NEW CEO TRYING TO HIT THE GROUND RUNNING WITH A TOUGH JOB UNDER HIS BELT AND HE'S ALREADY GETTING PRAISE BECAUSE HE HAS TAKEN THE LEAD FROM THE FACTORY FLOOR OF A COMPANY IN CRISIS MODE. HE SPENT THE DAY WALKING AROUND THE BOEING FACTORY IN WASHINGTON TALKING TO WORKERS AND LOOKING OVER SAFETY PLANS AND QUALITY PLANS. HE HAS PLANS DO THE SAME AT OTHER PLANTS. AN EMAIL TO EMPLOYEES TODAY HE SAID LIVES DEPEND ON WHAT WE DO EVERY DAY AND WE MUST KEEP THAT TOP OF MIND. IT MAY NOT BE EASY. THERE ARE A LOT ON THE LINE FOR BOEING AFTER SERIOUS IMAGE ISSUES. A DOOR PLUG OUT OF AN ALASKA AIRLINES FLIGHT MID AIR EARLIER THIS YEAR. TWO DEADLY CRASHES OF ITS BEST SELLING PLANES IN 2018 AND 2019. LAST MONTH THE COMPANY AGREED TO PLEAD GUILTY TO DEFRAUDING THE GOVERNMENT DURING CERTIFICATION OF THE PLANES. WE WERE TELLING YOU ABOUT THE STALINIST PATIENT STILL IN SPACE TWO MONTHS AFTER THE CREW WAS SUPPOSED TO COME HOME YOU'RE NOT STUCK, ACCORDING TO BOEING AND NASA. MAYBE THERE FOR AS MUCH AS SIX MORE MONTHS. TOM COSTELLO IS JOINING US NOW. IT'S BEEN A YEAR FOR BOEING AND NOT THE YEAR THEY WANTED TO HAVE THIS GUY HAS THE HARDEST JOB IN AVIATION STARTING HIS FIRST DAY TODAY. >> THIS COMPANY IS VITAL TO THE NATIONAL ECONOMY. NOBODY OTHER THAN AIRBUS IS ROOTING AGAINST BOEING. BUT THEY HAVE A LOT OF PROBLEMS AND IT'S NOT JUST THE 737 MAX 8 CRASHES OVERSEAS AND THE MAX 9 DOOR PLUG OR THE FACT THEY PLEADED GUILTY TO A FELONY OR THE FACT THEY ARE UNDER NTSB AND FAA INVESTIGATION, OR THE FACT THEY HAVE AN INSPECTOR GENERAL REPORT COMING DOWN HARD ON THEM FURTHER SPACE DIVISION, OR AN IG REPORT COMING DOWN HARD ON THE PENTAGON DEFENSE DIVISION. LOOK AT THE TO DO LIST. AND AS A READ THAT TO YOU OR AS YOU SEE WHAT THIS IS, LET ME MAKE THE POINT. IT IS SPACE, STARLINER'S, COMMERCIAL AIRCRAFT. I WENT BACK AND LOOKED AT DEFENSE DEFENSE IS OPERATING AT A LOSS. THEY MAKE A LOT OF PLANES A LOT OF WEAPONS SYSTEMS $3.5 BILLION LOSS IN 2022. $1.8 BILLION IN '23. THE GAO FOUND 108 WEAPONS SYSTEMS HAD PROBLEMS. NINE MAJOR COST OVERRUNS. PROBLEMS WITH THE NEW AIR FORCE ONE BEHIND SCHEDULE AND OVER BUDGET. THE NEW F-15 EX FIGHTER AND THE KC 46 TANKER AND THE TRAINER. THE ENTIRE DEFENSE SYSTEM, UNI , IS IN TROUBLE. NOT TO MENTION EVERY OTHER UNI . THE REASON HE IS MOVING HIS HEADQUARTERS BACK TO RENTON, WASHINGTON, IS BECAUSE THAT IS ESSENTIALLY THE HEART AND SHOW OF BOWLING. IT'S WHERE COMMERCIAL AIRCRAFT ARE MADE BUT THEY MOVE THE HEADQUARTERS TO CHICAGO 20 YEARS AGO AND THEN THEY MOVED TO ALEXANDRIA, VIRGINIA, TO BE CLOSE TO THE PENTAGON AND TOOK THEIR EYE OFF THE BALL HERE, CLEARLY, COMMERCIAL AVIATION. >> SO THERE'S A LOT ON HIS PLATE. THAT OILS DOWN TO A OT ON HIS PLATE AND HE'S HAD TWO PREDECESSORS WHO WERE ALSO TASKED IN DIFFERENT WAYS IN DIFFERENT CIRCUMSTANCES WITH TRYING TO INJECT BOEING. THEY HAD A TOUGH TIME. WILL HE DO ANY BETTER? >> THIS COMPANY HAS A HISTORY OF CEOs WHO HAVE FAILED. FAILED WITH A CAPITAL F. LOOK AT THE LIST OF CEOs AND THEN WE TELL YOU HOW MUCH THESE PEOPLE MAKE. DENNIS MUILENBURG WAS THE CEO AND HE WAS THERE DURING THE MAX 8 -- I'M SORRY. HE FAILED MISERABLY AND GOT SOMETHING LIKE A $50 MILLION PAYOUT YOU BROUGHT IN DAVE CALHOUN. MAX 9 AND THE DOOR PLUG BLOWOUT AND STARLINER AND EVERYTHING GOING ON IN THE DEFENSE UNIT. HE LEAVES WITH A $45 MILLION PAYOUT. NOW THEY BRING IN KELLY ORTBERG PICK $17 MILLION FOR TAKING THE JOB. $22 MILLION SALARY. A LOT OF PEOPLE ARE HOPING HE IS THE ANSWER. HE COMES WITH AN IMPRESSIVE RESUME ON AEROSPACE ENGINEERING FOR AEROSPACE COMPANIES. THIS Maui Wildfires One Year Later IS A TOUGH, TOUGH JOB AND THE PRESSURE IS ON. >> FASCINATING. THANK YOU FOR WATCHING THIS. >>> PEOPLE IN HAWAII HONORING MORE THAN 100 PEOPLE KILLED BY THE DEVASTATING WILDFIRES THAT TORE THROUGH MAUI ONE YEAR AGO. IT'S BEEN A YEAR SINCE THE TOWN OF LAHAINA BURNED. NOW THEY ARE HOSTING SEVERAL COMMUNITY EVENTS INCLUDING WHAT YOU LOOK AT HERE. A BEACH PADDLE OUT AND AN EVENING MEMORIAL TONIGHT. THIS HORRIFIC FIRE STARTED AS A BRUSH FIRE AND WAS BOOSTED BY HIGH WIND AND EXPLODED INTO A FULL-BLOWN WILDFIRE WITH QUESTIONS STILL OVER WHAT SPARKED IT AND WHAT LED FOR IT TO GET SO OUT OF CONTROL. THOUSANDS LOST THEIR HOMES AND HISTORIC LANDMARKS WERE DESTROYED AND REBUILDING IS FINALLY HAPPENING AGAIN BUT SLOWLY WITH MANY FAMILIES STILL LIVING IN HOTELS. PRESIDENT BIDEN TODAY IS PROMISING HIS ADMINISTRATION WILL GIVE MORE SUPPORT THANK WE'VE MADE TREMENDOUS PROGRESS THIS PAST YEAR BUT WE HAVE MORE TO DO PICK STEVE PATTERSON IS BACK TONIGHT IN THE TOWN OF LAHAINA AND IT'S A VERY DIFFERENT SCENE BEHIND IT THAN WHEN YOU AND I SPOKE A YEAR AGO. GIVE US A SENSE OF HOW PEOPLE ARE FEELING AT THIS VERY SOMBER BUT IMPORTANT MOMENT. >> Reporter: WE ARE AT THE TAIL END OF THIS PADDLE OUT SO THE FOOTAGE YOU JUST SAW IS WRAPPING UP. PEOPLE SWARMING THE SPEECH PICK UP I DON'T KNOW HOW MUCH SENSE THIS MAKES BUT WE'VE BEEN HERE SINCE MONDAY. WE HAVE EITHER INTERVIEWED SO MANY PEOPLE ARE BEEN TO PRESS CONFERENCES OF OFFICES OF MANY DIFFERENT PEOPLE AND I THINK WHAT IS SO TELLING IS ALL OF THEM ARE HERE. THE MAYOR AND THE GOVERNOR LIEUTENANT COLONEL BUT THE ARMY CORPS OF ENGINEERS IS HERE. THE GUY THAT SHOWED US THIS HOUSING DEVELOPMENT IS HERE. EVERYONE IS HERE BECAUSE EVERYBODY CARES ABOUT THIS COMMUNITY AND THEY ARE TOGETHER AND UNFORTUNATELY THE TRAUMA AND SIGNIFICANT AMOUNT OF LOSS IN THE PROCESS OF HEALING, EVERYBODY INCLUDING PUBLIC OFFICIALS TO THE CITIZENS WHO LOST EVERYTHING, ARE IN IT TOGETHER AND FEELING THAT SENSE OF TRAUMA. STILL REQUIRING SOME ANSWERS. STILL FEELING A SENSE OF UNEASINESS ABOUT EVERYTHING THAT'S GOING ON. STILL WANTING TO KNOW WHAT WILL HAPPEN NEXT IN A LOT OF WAYS, BUT DOING THAT TOGETHER AND MOVING FORWARD AND TRYING TO HEAL AND SOME OF THAT HEALING IS COMING BECAUSE WE ARE FINALLY STARTING TO GET PERMANENT HOUSING PROMISED EARLY ON. >> OFFICIALS AND LOCAL WANT TO BE INTENTIONAL ON HOW THEY REBUILD AND REALLY PUT THOUGHT BEHIND IT. THAT OBVIOUSLY TAKES TIME. THAT IS PART OF THE PROCESS HERE TOO AND WHY IT'S NOT AN INSTANTANEOUS MOMENT THAT WAS NEVER WHAT IT WAS GOING TO BE. >> Reporter: NEVER. AND OF COURSE IT WOULD TAKE TIME . I THINK THERE COULD'VE BEEN MORE TRANSPARENCY WITH SOME OF THE MESSAGING. I THINK IT TAKES AN INCREDIBLE AMOUNT OF TIME JUST TO CLEAN THE AREA, THE FIRE AREA. IT'S NOW 90% CLEANED UP OF DEBRIS SO FINALLY SOME OF THE PERMITS ARE COMING THROUGH SOME OF THE BUILDS ARE GOING OUT. ABOUT 20 UNITS RIGHT NOW BEING BUILT. OBVIOUSLY THERE WERE SOME ANSWERS ON WHERE PEOPLE WOULD BE GOING. A LOT OF THE HOUSING, TEMPORARY HOUSING AND HOTELS FELL THROUGH ON FOLKS AND LET PEOPLE IN A BAD WEIGHT WITH A BAD TASTE IN THEIR MOUTH, BUT NOW SINCE THE SETTLEMENT IS COMING THROUGH, THINGS ARE GOING TO CHANGE IN A BIG WAY MOVING FORWARD. THE GOVERNOR SAID THE FIRST YEAR IS ABOUT SURVIVAL BUT PHASE TWO IS ABOUT REBUILDING SO WE WILL SEE. >> STEVE PATTERSON THANK YOU. >>> OFFICIALS SAY ONE ATHLETE IS DEAD AFTER COMPETING IN A CROSSFIT GAMES. WHAT WE'RE LEARNING FROM POLICE ABOUT WHAT HAPPENED. >>> NEW QUESTIONS ABOUT THE FACT CHECKING SYSTEM FORS. Elon Musk Election Misinformation On X >> TALKING TUITION AS A NEW CLASS OF FRESHMEN GET READY TO GO TO COLLEGE. >> YOU THINK THIS COULD IMPACT HOW PEOPLE VOTE? >> MORNING NEWS NOW STREAMING WEEKDAYS AT 7:00. >>> NEW AND GROWING CONCERNS ABOUT THE SPREAD OF ELECTION MISINFORMATION ONLINE, SPECIFICALLY ON X. WITH NEW REPORT SHOWING FALSE OR MISLEADING CLAIMS ABOUT THE ELECTION POSTED BY ELON MUSK HIMSELF HAVE BEEN SEEN MORE THAN 1 BILLION TIMES. MORE THAN 1 BILLION TIMES. THAT'S ACCORDING TO THE NONPROFIT CENTER FOR COUNTERING DIGITAL HATE. RESEARCHERS SAY THEY FOUND 50 POSTS BY MUSK WITH ELECTION CLAIMS THAT HAVE BEEN DEBUNKED BY FACT CHECKERS INCLUDING CLAIMS THAT THE AMERICAN ELECTIONS ARE OPEN FOR FRAUD AND ILLEGAL VOTING BY NONCITIZENS. NBC NEWS AND OTHER ORGANIZATION BACK TO CHECK THOSE CLAIMS THAT NONCITIZENS ARE JUST GOING TO VOTE AND FOUND THEM FALSE. DAVID INGRAM IS JOINING US NOW. WHEN ELON MUSK BOUGHT TWITTER AND CHANGE THE NAME TO X, HE LIT OFF A BUNCH OF PEOPLE AND THAT RAISED CONCERNS AND ALARMS SOUND AT THE TIME AND WE COVERED THEM ABOUT FACT CHECKING AND THE ABILITY FOR THE PLATFORM AND DISINFORMATION. X HAS A USER DRIVEN BACK CHECKING SYSTEM. PEOPLE RECOGNIZE THAT AT A TWEET THAT'S UPON -- WRONG. IT FEELS LIKE PEOPLE FROM THIS RESEARCH THAT MAY NOT BE WORKING SO EFFECTIVELY HERE. WHAT'S HAPPENING? >> I THINK THAT'S RIGHT. THIS IS NOT WORKING. PERHAPS AT ALL AND NOT TO THE EXTENT MUSK CLAIMS THAT IT DOES. THIS SYSTEM ON X CALLED COMMUNITY NOTES WAS CREATED BEFORE MUSK BOUGHT THE COMPANY AND WAS NEVER INTENDED TO BE A COMPLETE TRUTH SQUAD SYSTEM TO CATCH EVERY PIECE OF MISINFORMATION. TWITTER USED TO HAVE STAFF AT THEIR HEADQUARTERS IN SAN FRANCISCO AND ELSEWHERE WHO WOULD HELP TO TRACK MISINFORMATION SPREADING ON THE PLATFORM AND LIMIT THE SPREAD. NOW X IS RELYING ON THE SYSTEM. YOU HAVE SO MANY OF THESE FANS OF ELON MUSK USING X AND VOTING DOWN SOME OF THE PROPOSED NOTES ON HIS FALSE CLAIMS. >> LET'S TALK ABOUT ELON MUSK. HE IS A TRUMP BACKER AND COMMITTED TO DONATING, HE SAYS, MILLIONS OF DOLLARS A MONTH TO TRUMP IS A QUESTION OF IF THAT WILL HAPPEN BUT THAT HE HAS A HUGE AUDIENCE ON HIS PLATFORM. NEARLY 200 MILLION FOLLOWERS. HE HAS A BIG MEGAPHONE AND THERE HAVE BEEN QUESTIONS AS TO HOW HE HAS USED IT. >> YEAH. HE HAS REALLY TAKING A BIG STICK IN THE SELECTION COMING OUT STRONGER DONALD TRUMP AND USING THIS ENORMOUS MEGAPHONE TO TRY TO PUSH ISSUES THAT ARE FAVORABLE TO TRUMP, INCLUDING IMMIGRATION, AND TO CRITICIZE DEMOCRATS THE QUESTION HERE IS WHAT CONSEQUENCES HE COULD FACE FOR THIS OVER THE LONG-TERM. HE SPENT $44 BILLION TO BUY TWITTER TWO YEARS AGO. IT'S NOW LOST SOMETHING LIKE 70% OF ITS VALUE SO THIS IS A LOSING BUSINESS FOR HIM RIGHT NOW. BUT ALSO HE HAS THESE LONG-TERM Competitor Dies At CrossFit Games REPUTATIONAL IDEAS WHERE PEOPLE THINK LESS OF HIM SO WE SEE HOW THAT PLAYS OUT OVER TIME. >> THANK YOU EXTRACT LET'S GET TO THE FIVE THINGS ARE TEAM THINGS YOU SHOULD KNOW. NUMBER ONE, A COMPETITOR HAS CDC Says Third Person Has Died From Deli Meat DIED DURING HIS SWIMMING PORTION OF THE CROSSFIT GAMES TODAY IN TEXAS. HE WAS 28 YEARS OLD AND FROM SERBIA.

I CAN STAND HERE AND TALK GEOPOLITICS. WE CAN TALK ABOUT THE NEW COLD WAR AND ALL THAT STUFF BUT HOW CAN IT BE THAT AMERICA GETS THAT CLOSE TO LOSING TO SERBIA IN BASKETBALL? IT'S LIKE LeBRON JAMES, KEVIN DURANT, THEY ARE ALL ON -- AND TO COME INTO THE FOURTH QUARTER AND ARE 13 POINTS BEHIND. I MEAN, IT WAS EXCITING. NO JOKE. IT WAS THRILLING. IT WAS INCREDIBLE. THEY MANAGED TO PULL IT BACK AND THEY WERE CHANCE. EVERY AMERICAN VOICE ACROSS THE WHOLE CITY OF PARIS WAS HOLLERING. HOLLERING. I'M TELLING YOU. AMAZING.

HE GETS A BRONZE MEDAL IN THE 200 METER CELLULITE, THAT'S IMPRESSIVE. AND THEN HE COLLAPSES AND NEEDS OF MEDICS WITH THEM. SO, YOU'RE THINKING, THAT'S SCARY. AND THEN, OF COURSE AS WE BEGIN TO MAKE SENSE OF THIS BECAUSE IT'S ONLY LATER AFTER THE RACE WE FIND OUT THAT HE TESTED POSITIVE FOR COVID. IT'S LIKE, OKAY, SO WEIGHT. HE STILL WENT AND RAN AND YOU RACED YOUR FELLOW ATHLETES AND MAYBE EVEN DID INTERVIEWS DURING THE WEEK AFTER YOUR TESTED? THERE ARE A LOT OF QUESTIONS HERE. ANDY SUCH A GREAT ATHLETE? SUCH A GREAT PERFORMER BUT LET'S NOT PRETEND THAT THIS -- THIS WILL BE TALKED ABOUT. >> IT'S THE BODY SO I THINK THERE WILL BE A LOT OF EYEBALLS ON THAT AND ALSO ON THIS NEXT QUESTION. THIS IS OUR LAST BECAUSE CLOSING CEREMONIES ARE THIS WEEKEND. THIS IS IT FOR THIS. SO YOU GOT TO LAY IT ON ME. FAVORITE MOMENT TO THE WHOLE OLYMPICS. WHAT SHOULD WE KNOW? WHAT IS KEIR SIMMONS'S FAVORITE MOMENT AT THE OLYMPICS?

SHOWING THE EXACT MOMENT THIS POLICE OFFICER CLIMBED ONTO THE ROOF. THERE GETTING READY TO OPEN FIRE ON A PRESIDENT DONALD TRUMP. A BUTLER TOWNSHIP OFFICER CLIMBING UP ON THE ROOF AND THEN IMMEDIATELY DROPPING BACK DOWN IT IS JUST THIS VIDEO, LATER MOMENTS CAPTURE THIS OFFICER'S IMMEDIATE REACTION TO WHAT HE SAW, LISTEN. >> HE WAS ON HE LEFT SIDE. >> THE SUBJECT WAS ABLE TO GET Police Officers React To Trump Shooting SEVERAL SHOTS OFF. BEFORE THE SHOOTER WAS KILLED BY SECRET SERVICE SNIPER. LET'S GO TO NBC'S TOM WINTER WAS FOLLOWING THIS FOR US. >> THERE ARE NEW INSIGHTS WE ARE GETTING BASED ON CONVERSATIONS BETWEEN THESE OFFICERS AND WHAT THIS VIDEO SHOWS. THE MEMORY IS MOST CLEAR, THEY ARE REACTING IN THEIR MOST GENUINE WAY TO WHATEVER TRAUMA OR SHOCK THAT THEY JUST SAW, THE VIDEO YOU PLAY FOR US IN THE VIDEO WE ARE LOOKING AT NOW CAPTURES A MOMENT, WE DON'T SEE IT. IT IS 30 SECONDS AFTER HE GETS UP ON THAT ROOF WHERE HE SEES THOMAS TURNED TO HIM WITH HIS RIFLE. AND POINT AT HIM THAT HE JUMPS DOWN THERE ARE SHOTS FIRED AT THE FORMER PRESIDENT BUT A LOT OF THIS OVER THE PAST SEVERAL WEEKS HAS BEEN HOW COULD THAT HAVE EVEN HAPPENED AND WE HEARD TODAY FROM A BUTLER TOWNSHIP POLICE DEPARTMENT MEMBER AND WHAT HE SAYS HAPPENED IN A BACK- AND-FORTH WITH THE SECRET SERVICE LEADING UP TO THIS, LET'S TAKE A LISTEN, HOWIE. >> THE SECRET SERVICE, I TOLD HIM THAT TUESDAY. >> IN ADDITION TO THAT HE LATER SAID THAT HE HAD A DISCUSSION TO THE SECRET SERVICE ON TUESDAY THE SHOOTING WAS ON A SATURDAY, TUESDAY SEVERAL DAYS BEFORE HE IS TALKING TO SECRET SERVICE WHERE HE SAYS THAT THEY SHOULD OF BEEN POSTED BACK THERE ON THE VIDEO, IT IS BEHIND THE BUILDING OR BUILDINGS WHERE EVENTUALLY HE WAS ABLE TO GET ON TOP OF AND FIRE SHOTS, EIGHT ROUNDS IN TOTAL. THAT IS THE REACTION WE ARE GETTING FROM POLICE OFFICERS. CLEARLY THEY WERE UPSET THAT THEY WERE EVEN RESPONDING TO THIS AT ALL BASED ON WHAT THEY SAY THEY TOLD THE SECRET SERVICE WE'RE STILL WAITING ON A RESPONSE FROM THE SECRET SERVICE BUT OF COURSE WE HAVE REACHED OUT TO THEM. >> OKAY THAT WAS A QUESTION THERE TOO. WE HAVE SEEN THIS WEDGE BETWEEN THE LOCALS, THE STATE AND THE FEDERAL OFFICIALS WHO WERE ON THIS. GIVE ME YOUR EXPERTISE ON THIS. AS YOU SAY POTENTIALLY THE MOST IMPORTANT EVIDENCE THAT WE HAVE SEEN INTO HOW THE SECURITY FAILURES OCCURRED, DOES THIS RAISE OTHER NEW QUESTIONS? IN OTHER WORDS, BRING US INSIDE OF WHAT HAPPENED HERE. >> IT IS CRITICAL, AS TO WHO WAS TOLD WHAT AND WHEN, VERY CLEARLY THERE WAS A WALK THROUGH. THIS HAPPENS ALL THE TIME. THEY GET EVERYBODY INVOLVED. THEY BRING IN THE NYPD AND THEY SAY HEY, WHAT YOU AUSSIE IS A POTENTIAL THREAT OR A PROBLEM WITH THIS BUILDING OR THIS AVENUE. EVERYBODY THINKS I WANT ALL THE THINGS THAT SOMEBODY COULD DO THAT APPEARS TO HAVE TAKEN PLACE HERE IN WHAT IS CLEARLY AN IMMEDIATE REACTION AFTER THIS EVENT AND SO WHO IS HE TALKING TO? WHAT WAS SAID? IN THE CRITICAL QUESTION I CONTINUE TO HAVE, ACTUALLY TWO QUESTIONS. ONE, DID ANYBODY GO BACK TO THAT BUILDING AND CHECK? IS THE SECRET SERVICE WHERE WE NEED THEM TO BE? ARE WE ON TOP OF THE ROOF? WHO IS ON TOP OF CHECKING THAT IN THE SECOND QUESTION IS, IS VERY CLEAR FROM THE FIRST VIDEO. Secret Service Responds To Trump Shooting ACTED COURAGEOUSLY ADDING THAT THE ATTEMPTED ASSASSINATION WAS A SECRET SERVICE FAILURE WE ARE New Details In Taylor Swift Attack Plot UPDATING OUR POLICIES AND PROCEDURES. ALSO TONIGHT NEW DETAILS IN THE PLANNED ATTACK ON TAYLOR SWIFT CONCERT IN VIENNA, OFFICIAL SAYING THAT HE WANTED TO KILL AS MANY PEOPLE AS POSSIBLE. >> ALONG WITH THE, IN THEIR WORDS, VAST AMOUNTS F AL QAEDA AND ISIS MATERIAL, IT IS ONLY ABOUT 24 HOURS AGO THAT WE BROUGHT YOU HERE ON THE SHOW AS BREAKING NEWS, THE NEWS THAT ORGANIZERS DECIDED TO CANCEL ALL THREE OF THOSE SWIFT SHOWS SET TO START TONIGHT AND INTO THE WEEKEND. AFTER OFFICIALS RESCUED TWO SUSPECTS IN THE SPOT. TAYLOR SWIFT CONCERT MANAGER SAYS PART OF THE REASON THEY DECIDED TO CALL OFF ONE OF THE SHOWS IS BECAUSE ONE OF THE SUSPECTS ACTUALLY WORKED AT THE VENUE FOR DAYS. OBVIOUSLY TAYLOR SWIFT BRINGS IN HUGE CROWDS. SOME OF THOSE FANS OF COURSE DISAPPOINTED. >> A ONCE-IN-A-LIFETIME OPPORTUNITY WITH MY BEST YOU TO SEE TAYLOR SWIFT. >> WE PLANNED ALL YEAR TO BE HERE, WHAT A HUGE DISAPPOINTMENT FOR OUR FRIENDS AND KIDS. >> THERE WERE A LOT OF TEARS. >> A LOT OF NEW DETAILS HAVE COME OUT SINCE WE WERE UNPACKING THIS, TALK WITH HER A LITTLE BIT ABOUT WHERE THIS INVESTIGATION STANDS. IT SOUNDS LIKE FROM ARTIFICIAL SAY THAT IT HAD HE POTENTIAL TO BE VERY SERIOUS. >> IT APPEARS THAT THIS IS A CLOSE CALL. WE LEARNED THAT U.S. INTELLIGENCE PROVIDED THE TIP THAT LED THEM TO FIND THE SUSPECT. APPARENTLY HE POSTED A MANIFESTO PLEDGING ALLEGIANCE TO ISIS A FEW WEEKS BEFORE THAT MAY HAVE CONTRIBUTED TO THEM FINDING HIM. THEY SEARCHED HIS HOUSE, THEY FOUND A MACHETE, EXPLOSIVES, CHEMICALS. ISIS AND AL QAEDA PROPAGANDA. HE HAS NOW CONFESSED WE ARE TOLD ANY PLAN TO KILL AS MANY PEOPLE AS HE COULD, AND HIMSELF. THIS JUST UNDERSCORES THE THREAT FROM RADICAL ISLAM THAT HAS NOT GONE AWAY. >> TAYLOR SWIFT HAS OTHER SHOWS. HER CROWDS ARE HUGE, TONS OF PEOPLE TURN OUT FOR HER. THE MAYOR SAYS THOSE SHOWS FROM NOW ARE GOING TO GO ON AS PLANNED THE TALK ABOUT THE CONCERT AROUND THE WORLD KNOW. IT FEELS LIKE THERE ARE SOME PLACES THAT ARE GETTING TO BE A LITTLE BIT ON EDGE. >> WE THOUGHT WE WERE OUT OF THE WOODS, IT SEEMS TO BE RESURGING IN THESE ARE SO DIFFICULT BECAUSE THEY ARE LONE WOLVES. THAT CAN HAPPEN ANYWHERE. SO BRITISH AUTHORITIES ARE MINDFUL OF THAT THEY SAY THAT THEY ARE STEPPING UP SECURITY AND YOU CAN'T STOP EVERY Trump Commits To 3 Debates OUTDOOR CONCERT OR VENUE, LIVE YOUR LIFE AND THAT'S WHAT THEY INTEND TO DO WITH VIGILANCE. >>> THE VICE PRESIDENT RESPONDING JUST BEFORE GETTING ON AIR FORCE TWO A COUPLE OF MINUTES AGO. >> WE'RE LOOKING FORWARD TO IT. I'M HOPING HE SHOWS UP. >> ARE YOU OPEN TO MORE DEBATE? >> I'M HAPPY TO HAVE THE CONVERSATION OF AN ADDITIONAL DEBATES. >> AFTER SEPTEMBER 10th THAT WOULD PRESUMABLY BE POTENTIALLY IF SHE IS HAVING THE CONVERSATION THE POSSIBILITY OF AN NBC NEWS DEBATE WE ARE ALSO NOW HEARING FROM PRESIDENT BIDEN ON THIS, ULTIMATELY IT SEEMS THAT ENDED IN HIS RE ELECTION CAMPAIGN. >> YOU ARE THE PRESIDENT THERE AS LONG AS HE KEEPS TALKING, ALL OF IT. A PRETTY LONG STEM WINDER OF A PRESS CONFERENCE FROM PRESIDENT TRUMP WHO PERSONALLY INSULTED HIS INTELLIGENCE. SEEMED KIND OF ANNOYED BY TALK OF CROWD SIZES AT THE RALLIES MAKING A CONTROVERSIAL COMPARISON ON THE CROWD WHO WATCHED THE DREAM SPEECH. >> NOBODY HAS SPOKEN TO CROWDS BIGGER THAN ME. IF YOU LOOK AT MARTIN LUTHER KING, WHEN HE DID HIS GREAT SPEECH AND YOU LOOK AT HOURS, SAME REAL ESTATE, SAME EVERYTHING. SAME NUMBER OF PEOPLE IF NOT, WE HAD MORE. >> OBVIOUSLY NOT THE CASE. A TALE OF TWO CAMPAIGNS EMERGED WITH TWO VERY DIFFERENT STRATEGIES. LET'S HIT IT WITH BOTH OF OUR CAMPAIGN REPORTERS IN THE FIELD TONIGHT. SO, YOU KNOW THE MEME OF PEOPLE WHO TAKE MEETINGS IN THERE LIKE HEY, THIS MEETING COULD'VE BEEN AN EMAIL. THE ANNOUNCEMENT ON THE PRESS CONFERENCES COULD'VE BEEN A FORMER POST. THE HARRIS CAMPAIGN SUGGESTED THAT HE WAS ESSENTIALLY SO EAGER FOR THE SPOTLIGHT TO TURN BACK TO HIM HE WAS THROWING WHAT THEY DESCRIBED AS A TEMPER TANTRUM IN FRONT OF THE MEDIA. HE WANTED TO TALK AND TALK HE DID TODAY. >> BACK FOOTING THE CAMPAIGN BY SUGGESTING HE IS NOT CAPABLE OF DOING WHAT WE JUST SAW HER DO ON THE TARMAC, TAKE QUESTIONS FROM REPORTERS WITHOUT A TELEPROMPTER IN THE MIDDLE ESSENTIALLY. THEY WANT TO TRY TO GET HER OUT THERE, NOT BECAUSE THEY THINK IT IS A GOOD MEDIA STORY, BUT BECAUSE THEY THINK THE MORE SHE TALKS THE LESS VOTERS PARTICULARLY THE INDEPENDENT VOTERS ARE LIKELY TO BUY INTO THE HYPE AND MOMENTARY SURGE THAT THEY BELIEVE SHE IS HAVING. IT HAD MORE FALSE THING IN IT. AGAIN THAT WASN'T EVEN REALLY THE POINT. THE POINT WAS TO PROVE THAT HE CAN DO THIS, WHY ISN'T SHE? >> IT'S ALL ABOUT HER COMMENTS ABOUT POLICY. A STATEMENT BY THE OTHER HOUR, FOUR MINUTES AND 30 SECONDS OF HIM GOING AFTER. THEY ARE TRUTHFULLY NOT BASED IN EVIDENCE HERE. WHAT IS THE PLAN, THE STRATEGY FOR THE NEXT 89 DAYS? WE HEAR A LOT ABOUT LET TRUMP BE TRUMP, IS THAT IT? >> YOU HIT THE DETENTION OF THIS, THE PLAN, THE STRATEGY IS TO DO WHAT TRUMP STARTED OUT DOING WHICH WAS TO CRITICIZE KAMALA HARRIS ON POLICY AND ON THE THINGS THAT SHE HAD SAID IN THE PAST THAT SHE IS FOR, THINGS LIKE MEDICARE FOR ALL. THEY BELIEVE THAT HER ACTUAL POLICY IS WELL TO THE LEFT THAN WHERE THE PEOPLE ARE IF THEY CAN JUST COMMUNICATE THAT MESSAGE THEY WILL WIN THE CENTER-RIGHT COALITION THAT THEY NEED TO BECOME PRESIDENT OF THE UNITED STATES. THE PLAN IS SOMETIMES COMPLICATED BY DONALD TRUMP THE CANDIDATE WHO LIKES TO COMMUNICATE A CERTAIN WAY THAT OFTEN INCLUDES PERSONAL ATTACKS LIKE CALLING HER INCOMPETENT OR QUESTIONING HER RACIAL HERITAGE AND THEN DENYING WHERE HE IS ACTUALLY DONE SO. IS THE COST OF PUTTING YOUR CANDIDATE OUT THERE TO TAKE QUESTIONS FROM THE PRESS. YOU WILL GET PERHAPS SLIGHTLY OFF MESSAGE OR WILDLY OFF MESSAGE AS WE SAW FROM DONALD TRUMP TODAY. >> LIVE IN PALM BEACH, I APPRECIATE IT. VICE PRESIDENT HAS TO STOP IN ARIZONA. >> THAT'S RIGHT, ARIZONA AND THEN NEVADA, THERE ON THE WAY OUT WEST RIGHT NOW. YOU KNOW, WE TALKED A LITTLE BIT ABOUT THAT DEBATE NOW THAT IT IS ON THE CALENDAR IT IS NOW SEPTEMBER 10th. I WENT TO PUT THE DEBATE DAY IN MY PHONE AND I WILL TELL YOU I GOT CONFUSED BECAUSE IT WAS ALREADY THERE. THAT IS BECAUSE THIS JUST SHOWS YOU THE BACK-AND-FORTH WE HAVE BEEN LOOKING AT FOR THE PAST COUPLE OF MONTHS. BACK THEN IT WAS WHEN IT WAS SUPPOSED TO BE JOE BIDEN AND DONALD TRUMP THEN DONALD TRUMP BACKED OUT OF IT AND ONCE HE SAW THE VICE PRESIDENT RISE TO THE TOP OF THE TICKET THERE IS BEEN A LOT OF BACK-AND-FORTH ABOUT THAT DEBATE. YOU ARE HEARING THE CAMPAIGN PUSHBACK NOT ONLY ON THE IDEA THAT SHE IS READY AND WILLING TO DEBATE BUT THAT SHE CAN TAKE THOSE QUESTIONS IN THE FACT THAT SHE DID SO JUST A COUPLE OF MINUTES AGO, THE CAMPAIGN TRYING TO DO WHAT THEY CAN TO PUSH BACK ON THE MESSAGING AS THERE ALSO ON THE CAMPAIGN TRAIL. >> WAS INTERESTING TOO, THE MOMENT WE JUST WATCHED TOGETHER, IT LITERALLY JUST HAPPENED SHE SAID I WOULD BE INTERESTING AND -- INTERESTED IN HAVING A CONVERSATION WHICH WOULD ROLLOUT THE WEEK BEFORE. I WOULDN'T BE SURPRISED MAYBE IT TURNS INTO JUST A TOWN ALL OR SOMETHING IT LOOKS PRETTY CLEAR. >> IT LOOKS LIKE THAT IS NOT GOING TO BE A DEBATE BUT WE REALLY DON'T KNOW AT THIS POINT, TODAY HAS KIND OF MOVED VERY QUICKLY IN BOTH WHAT WE HAVE BEEN HEARING FROM THE VICE PRESIDENT AND WHAT WE HAVE BEEN HEARING FROM DONALD TRUMP'S SIDE. >> THERE IS ALSO BEEN THIS ATTACK THAT THEY HAVE TRIED TO LEVEL -- LEVY AGAINST TIM WALZ, THE GOVERNOR OF MINNESOTA. IN THE CAMPAIGN IS KIND OF FLEXING SOME MUSCLE TO PUSH BACK ON IT. >> I WILL TELL YOU, WHAT YOU HAVE BEEN HEARING FIRST FROM THE REPUBLICAN SIDE IS THAT THERE IS SOME SUGGESTION THAT THE TIME IN WHICH HE RETIRED, HE DID SO TO AVOID GOING TO IRAQ AND THERE ARE SOME COMMENTS WHERE HE SUGGESTED THAT HE IS IN A WAR OR COMBAT THEATER WHEN WE KNOW THAT IS NOT THE CASE. THAT IS SOMETHING I TRY TO ASK HIM DIRECTLY AND HE DID NOT ANSWER ANY OF THOSE QUESTIONS BUT VICE PRESIDENT HARRIS WAS ASKED ABOUT THAT LISTEN TO WHAT HE SAID -- SHE SAID. >> LOOK, THIS IS ALL PART OF THE RACE TO DEFINE GOVERNOR WALZ WAS ON THAT EFFECT -- TICKETS. YOU GET A SENSE OF HOW THESE ARE GOING TO GO BACK AND FORTH AS WE HAVE THE ELECTION COMING UP IN 89 DAYS. >> MORE FROM YOU I KNOW AS THE POLITICAL SEASON CONTINUES TO UNFOLD, JUST 89 DAYS LEFT. >> LET'S TALK BOEING NOW. DAY ONE OF A TOUGH JOB NOW UNDER HIS BELT. IS ALREADY GETTING SOME PRAISE BECAUSE A COMPANY IN CRISIS MODE. TALKING WITH WORKERS LOOKING OVER SAFETY AND QUALITY PANS -- PLANS. WRITING IN AN EMAIL TO EMPLOYEES TODAY, PEOPLE'S LIVES DEPEND ON WHAT WE DO EVERY DAY AND WE MUST KEEP THAT TOP OF MIND. IT MAY NOT BE EASY. THERE'S A LOT ON THE LINE FOR BOEING. TWO DEADLY CRASHES OF THE BEST SELLING PLANES IN 2018 IN 2019 LAST MONTH WHEN THE COMPANY AGREED TO PLEAD GUILTY TO DEFRAUDING THE GOVERNMENT, WE HAVE BEEN TELLING YOU ABOUT THAT STAR LINER SPACESHIP STILL IN SPACE AFTER THE CREW WAS SUPPOSED TO COME HOME, THEY MAY BE THERE ANOTHER SIX MONTHS. TOM CASTILLO IS TO JOIN US NOW. >> YOU HAVE THIS GUY WHO HAS MAYBE THE HARDEST JOB IN AVIATION STARTING THIS FIRST DAY TODAY. >> LISTEN, THIS COMPANY IS VITAL TO THE NATIONAL ECONOMY. NOBODY OTHER THAN MAYBE AIRBUS, NOBODY IS ROOTING AGAINST BOEING. THEY HAVE A LOT OF PROBLEMS AND IT IS NOT JUST THE CRASHES OVERSEAS, THE FACT THAT THEY PLEADED GUILTY TO A FELONY OR THE FACT THAT THEY ARE UNDER FAA INVESTIGATION, OR THE FACT THAT THEY HAVE GOT AN INSPECTOR GENERAL REPORT COMING DOWN HARD ON THEM FOR THEIR SPACE DIVISION OR AN IG REPORT COMING DOWN HARD ON THE PENTAGON DEFENSE DIVISION, TAKE A LOOK AT THE TO DO LIST AND AS I READ THAT TO YOUR AS YOU SEE WHAT THE TO DO LIST IS LET ME JUST MAKE THE POINTS, IT IS SPACE, STAR LINER AS WE SAID, COMMERCIAL AIRCRAFT, I JUST WENT BACK AND LOOKED AT DEFENSE, DEFENSES OPERATING AT A LOSS. THEY MAKE A LOT OF PLANES, A LOT OF WEAPON SYSTEMS. 3 1/2 BILLION DOLLAR LOSS IN 2022, 1.8 BILLION IN 2023. THEY FOUND 108 WEAPON SYSTEMS HAD PROBLEMS, NINE MAJOR COST OVERRUNS, WE HAVE PROBLEMS WITH THE NEW AIR FORCE ONE BEHIND SCHEDULE WITH THE NEW F-15 FIGHTER AND WITH THE TRAINER, THE ENTIRE DEFENSE SYSTEM UNIT IS IN TROUBLE. NOT TO MENTION EVERY OTHER UNIT, THE REASON HE IS MOVING HIS HEADQUARTERS, HIS CEO SHIPPED BACK TO WASHINGTON IS BECAUSE THAT IS ESSENTIALLY THE HEART AND SOUL OF BOEING. IT IS WHERE COMMERCIAL AIRCRAFT ARE MADE, THEY MOVED THE HEADQUARTERS TO CHICAGO ABOUT 20 YEARS AGO AND THEN THEY MOVED IT TO ALEXANDRIA VIRGINIA TO BE CLOSE TO THE PENTAGON AND THEY TOOK THEIR EYE OFF THE BALL HERE CLEARLY ON COMMERCIAL AVIATION. >> ALL OF THAT BOILS DOWN TO THIS IS A LOT ON THIS GUYS PLATES. HE HAS HAD TWO PREDECESSORS WHO ARE ALSO TASKED WITH TRYING TO INJECT BOEING WITH THE MORE. THEY HAD A TOUGH TIME. IS HE GOING TO DO ANY BETTER? >> THEY HAVE FAILED, FAILED WITH THE F >> HE WAS THERE, I'M SORRY HE FAILED MISERABLY. HE GOT SOMETHING LIKE A $50 MILLION PAYOUT. STAR LINER, EVERYTHING GOING ON NOW IN THE DEFENSE UNIT. HE LEAVES WITH A $45 MILLION PAYOUT. NOW THEY BRING IN KELLY, $17 MILLION FOR TAKING THE JOB. A LOT OF PEOPLE ARE HOPING HE IS THE ANSWER. LISTEN, THIS IS A TOUGH TOUGH JOB. AND THE PRESSURE IS ON. >> JUST FASCINATING, THANK YOU FOR WATCHING ALL OF IT FOR US. >> PEOPLE IN HAWAII ARE HONORING MORE THAN 100 OTHER KILLED -- OTHERS KILLED, IT IS BEEN A YEAR. TONIGHT THERE HOSTING SOME EVENTS AND A MEMORIAL THIS EVENING TO HONOR AND REMEMBER THE VICTIMS. REMEMBER, THIS STARTED OUT AS A BRUSH FIRE AND THEN EXPLODED INTO A WILDFIRE, A MASSIVE AND HORRIFIC ONE. THERE ARE STILL SOME QUESTIONS AS TO WHAT SPARKED IT. THOUSANDS OF PEOPLE LOST THEIR HOMES. HISTORIC LANDMARKS WERE DESTROYED. IT IS HAPPENING SLOWLY. PRESIDENT BIDEN IS PLEDGING HIS ADMINISTRATION'S CONTINUED SUPPORT SING WE HAVE MADE TREMENDOUS PROGRESS BUT WE HAVE A LOT MORE TO DO. HE IS JOINING US NOW, THIS PADDLE OUT, THIS MEMORIAL TONIGHT IT IS AN OPPORTUNITY FOR PEOPLE IN AND AROUND TO HONOR THIS FIRE YET AGAIN. >> THE TRAUMA HERE IS DEEP AS IT IS WIDE. IT'S TOUCHED SO MANY PEOPLE AND HAS TOUCHED THEM DEEPLY IN A WAY I THINK EVERYBODY HAS FELT IT PERMEATES THROUGH THE COMMUNITY. TO HAVE THESE EVENTS AND TO HAVE THE CATTLE OUT WHICH ENDED HOURS AGO WHEN THERE ARE STILL PEOPLE HERE TOGETHER REMEMBERING, CELEBRATING, BEING TOGETHER I THINK IS IMPORTANT. IT'S IMPORTANT FOR THE FOLKS HERE TO BE ABLE TO MOVE ON IN WHATEVER WAY THEY CAN. A LOT OF IT IS GOING TO COME THROUGH REVIVAL OPPORTUNITIES, HAVING ACTUAL SAFE SOUND PERMANENT HOUSING I THINK THAT IS THE NUMBER ONE THING. PEOPLE CANNOT MOVE FORWARD UNLESS THEY FEEL SAFE ABOUT WHERE THEY ARE NOW I THINK JUST KNOWING THAT PEOPLE ARE HERE AND SHARING THAT TRAUMA TOGETHER AND TRYING TO PUT IT PAST THEM ALTOGETHER THAT INCLUDES THE MAYOR, THE GOVERNOR, SOME OF THE PEOPLE THAT WE HAVE BEEN MEETING SINCE WE HAVE BEEN HERE ON MONDAY ON THE GROUND HITTING IT'S IMPORTANT FOR EVERYONE TO DO AND WE HAVE SEEN IT CERTAINLY TODAY. >> TALK ABOUT THE ROAD AHEAD. EVEN TO GET TO THIS POINT WAS JUST SUCH AN UNDERTAKING FOR PEOPLE IN THE AREA. THIS IS REALLY ONLY THE BEGINNING, IT IS A MARATHON. >> IT IS A MARATHON, NOT A SPRINT. I DON'T THINK ANYBODY WOULD THINK THAT THE ROAD AHEAD IS GOING TO BE EASY. THIS IS AN ISLAND THAT HAS SUSTAINED A MAJOR WOUND THAT HAS NEVER DEALT WITH A CRISIS THIS HUGE AND THEY NEVER SHOULD HAVE. BUT HERE THEY ARE, I THINK A LOT OF PEOPLE HAVE BEEN COMPLAINING ABOUT THE AMOUNT OF RED TAPE IT HAS TAKEN, THE AMOUNT OF TIME IT HAS TAKEN TO GET ASSISTANCE TO GET PERMANENT HOUSING, THERE HAS BEEN A LOT OF COMPLAINTS ABOUT THAT. THERE HAS BEEN PROGRESS, 90% OF ALL OF THE DEBRIS THAT YOU ARE SHOWING IN THESE PICTURES IS CLEANED UP, IT LOOKS TOTALLY DIFFERENT.
