BUT THEY SAY BECAUSE HE HAD AN AIR PLATFORM RIFLE PROVIDED TO HIM BY HIS FATHER, THEY ALLEGE IT WAS ALMOST NO SCENARIO WHERE THEY COULD HAVE PREVENTED THIS ENTIRELY. >> BY THE TIME IT BEGAN, THE FIREPOWER WAS JUST TOO GREAT. >> BUT ONE OF THE SUSPECTS OWN FAMILY MEMBERS IS NOW SAYING THERE WAS A CALL AHEAD OF ALL THIS WARNING OFFICIALS. SEVERAL NEW DEVELOPMENTS HERE. THE WEEKEND AND ABC'S FAITH ABUBEY HAS BEEN AT THE SCENE OF THE SHOOTING SINCE IT HAPPENED. FAITH. WHAT HAVE WE LEARNED ABOUT WHAT MAY HAVE TRANSPIRED IN THE MOMENTS LEADING UP TO THE SHOOTING? >> YES. SO, BRAD, I JUST WANT TO PREFACE THIS BY SAYING ALL THIS INFORMATION I'M ABOUT TO SHARE WITH YOU ABOUT THE MOMENTS LEADING UP TO THE SHOOTING IS FROM THE AUNT. SHE CONFIRMED DETAILS TO ABC NEWS AFTER THEY WERE FIRST REPORTED IN THE WASHINGTON POST. BUT AT THIS POINT, THEY'RE STILL JUST ALLEGATIONS. NOW, WHAT HAPPENED, ACCORDING TO THE IS THAT AFTER THE SHOOTING HAPPENED, SHE RECEIVED A TEXT MESSAGE FROM HER SISTER WHO WOULD BE THE ACCUSED SHOOTER'S MOTHER AND SHE SAYS THAT HER SISTER TOLD HER THAT ON THE DAY OF THE SHOOTING RIGHT AROUND MAYBE 950 IN THE MORNING, SHE CALLED THE SCHOOL AND SPOKE WITH A COUNSELOR. THAT'S THE ACCUSED SHOOTER'S MOTHER, CALLED THE SCHOOL, SPOKE TO A COUNSELOR TO WARN THEM ABOUT WHAT SHE SAID WAS AN EXTREME EMERGENCY. AND SHE SAYS SHE TOLD THEM TO IMMEDIATELY GO AND CHECK IN ON HER SON BECAUSE THERE WAS SOMETHING WRONG. AND SO THAT WAS ROUGHLY MAYBE ABOUT 30 MINUTES BEFORE THE FIRST GUNFIRE WAS REPORTED. "THE WASHINGTON POST" DID LOOK AT THE CALL LOGS AND DID CONFIRM THAT THERE WAS A PHONE CALL THAT HAPPENED TO THE SCHOOL BEFORE THE SHOOTING HAPPENED THAT MORNING. IT'S NOT CLEAR HOW THE SCHOOL REACTED. BUT IT'S ALSO INTERESTING BECAUSE SEPARATELY FROM THAT, WE SPOKE WITH THE CLASSMATE OF THE ACCUSED SHOOTER. SHE WAS IN CLASS. SHE WAS IN ALGEBRA CLASS WITH THE TEENAGER THAT MORNING. AND SHE TELLS US THAT A SCHOOL ADMINISTRATOR CAME INTO THEIR CLASSROOM AFTER THE TEENAGER LEFT THE CLASS. THE ADMINISTRATOR CAME IN AND GRABBED A BACKPACK. THAT BACKPACK BELONGED TO SOMEONE ELSE WHOSE NAME IS VERY SIMILAR TO THE ACCUSED SHOOTER HERE. YEAH. THEY TOOK THE BACKPACK AND THEN CAME BACK AND GAVE IT BACK TO THE STUDENT. >> OBVIOUSLY, WHEN HE CAME BACK WITH THIS BAG, WE KNEW AT THAT POINT THEY WERE LOOKING FOR COLE AND HIS BAG. SO WE THOUGHT HE HAD SOMETHING FROM HER UNDERSTANDING BECAUSE SHE'S FRIENDS WITH THAT STUDENT. SHE WAS TOLD THAT THERE WAS CONFUSION. THEY WERE ACTUALLY LOOKING FOR THE ACCUSED TEENAGER. >> I DON'T THINK SHE REALLY KNEW LIKE THAT. HE WAS ANGRY UNTIL LIKE THE SHOTS WENT OFF. LIKE NO ONE REALLY KNEW HE HAD A GUN. >> ALL THAT HAPPENED JUST MOMENTS BEFORE THAT GUNFIRE ERUPTED IN THAT HALLWAY. >> I SEE. WHICH THEN, OF COURSE, WOULD LEAD TO QUESTIONS LIKE, WAS EVERYONE ON THE SAME PAGE? FROM THE MOMENT THIS STARTED HAPPENING, THE POLICE HAVE SAID THEY DON'T HAVE ANY RECORDS OF THESE CALLS, APPARENTLY. SO WHAT WAS THE WARNING EXACTLY TO THE FAMILY IS CLAIMING THEY GAVE? BECAUSE IF THEY'RE SAYING THERE'S AN EMERGENCY, WHAT TYPE OF EMERGENCY DO THEY MEAN? >> YES. ACCORDING TO THE WASHINGTON POST, THE CLAIMS THAT WERE PUBLISHED BY THEM, THEY SAID THAT THE MOTHER TALKED TO THE COUNSELOR AND THE COUNSELOR MENTIONED THAT THE ACCUSED TEENAGER WAS TALKING ABOUT A SCHOOL SHOOTING EARLIER IN THE MORNING. SO ALL OF THIS IS COMING FROM THE AUNT. THEY ARE STILL ALLEGATIONS AT THIS POINT. THEY SAID THAT THERE WAS A DISCUSSION ABOUT THE BOY'S MENTAL HEALTH AT SOME POINT LEADING UP TO THE SHOOTING. THERE WERE CONVERSATION LINES ABOUT SCHOOL SHOOTINGS. >> I REALLY HOPE THAT THEY GIVE US AN ANSWER AS TO WHY HE WAS HERE AND WAS HE ALREADY ON THEIR RADAR THAT THEY KNEW THAT COULD BE A POSSIBILITY? AND WERE THEY WATCHING HIM, JUST ALL OF THAT IS PLAYING INTO ALL OF THESE QUESTIONS THAT PEOPLE IN THIS COMMUNITY HAVE. DID THIS BOY SLIP THROUGH THE CRACKS? WAS THIS BOY ON THE RADAR OF A LOT OF PEOPLE FROM LAW ENFORCEMENT TO SCHOOL OFFICIALS AND THEN NOBODY TOOK ACTION IN TIME IN ORDER TO MAKE A DIFFERENCE IN WHAT HAPPENED HERE? >> WELL, LET'S TALK ABOUT THE SCHOOL OFFICIALS, BECAUSE WE KEEP HEARING ABOUT THIS FBI REPORT AND THIS VISIT FROM POLICE IN A NEIGHBORING COUNTY LAST YEAR. BUT WAS THE QUESTION I HAVEN'T HEARD ANSWERED YET WAS, WAS THIS STUDENT KNOWN AT THIS SCHOOL AS A THREAT? >> HAD THEY BEEN WARNED, HEY, WE'VE HAD COMPLAINTS OR CONCERNS ABOUT HIM IN THE PAST. SO AS FAR AS WE KNOW, NO, THEY HAD NO IDEA THAT THIS STUDENT HAD JUST TRANSFERRED TO THEIR DISTRICT TWO WEEKS BEFORE SCHOOL YEAR STARTED A MONTH PRIOR. HE HAD ONLY BEEN IN CLASS MAYBE FIVE, SIX, SEVEN TIMES IN THE TWO WEEK PERIOD THAT HE WAS IN SCHOOL BEFORE HE ALLEGEDLY SHOT UP THE SCHOOL. >> WHEN HE IS THERE IN SCHOOL AND HE'S NOT SKIPPING, HE DOESN'T TALK. THE PREVIOUS COUNTY WHERE HE WAS, THE SHERIFF'S INVESTIGATORS TOLD THE FBI THAT THEY ALERTED THAT SCHOOL DISTRICT THAT THEY NEEDED TO MONITOR HIM BECAUSE OF THIS DISTURBING POST ON SOCIAL MEDIA ABOUT A SCHOOL SHOOTING THAT THEY LEARNED ABOUT BACK IN MAY OF LAST YEAR. >> I GOT TO TAKE ITS WORD, AND I HOPE YOU'RE BEING HONEST. I'M NOT SAYING YOU'RE LYING, BUT IT'S SO SERIOUS. >> THEY SAID THERE WAS NO PROBABLE CAUSE TO ARREST HIM. THEY WANTED THE SCHOOL TO MONITOR HIM. BUT OVER THE WEEKEND, WE LEARNED THAT THE SCHOOL SAID THAT THERE WAS NO RECORD, THAT THE SHERIFF'S INVESTIGATORS ACTUALLY SENT THEM ANY ALERT, TELLING THEM TO MONITOR THIS KID AND THAT THE SHERIFF'S OFFICE ITSELF HAS NO RECORD, THAT IT ACTUALLY DID WHAT IT TOLD THE FBI THAT IT DID. >> SO A LOT OF QUESTIONS STILL LEFT HERE ONCE THE SHOOTING DID TAKE PLACE LAST WEEK, POLICE WERE ON THE SCENE INCREDIBLY FAITH. >> WHY IS THAT? YOU'VE BEEN DOING SOME REPORTING ON THAT. YES. SO THEY SAID THEY WERE WITHIN THE SPAN OF 7 MINUTES. THEY WERE HERE AT THE SCENE. AND THE SHERIFF IN MY ONE ON ONE SIT DOWN WITH HIM SAID THAT THIS WAS CRITICAL. IT POSSIBLY SAVED LIVES BECAUSE OF A SYSTEM THAT THEY HAD JUST INSTALLED JUST A WEEK BEFORE THE SHOOTING. AND, IN FACT, THE DAY BEFORE THE SHOOTING, THEY TESTED THEIR SYSTEM AT ANOTHER TO MAKE SURE IT WORKS. THEY HAD NO IDEA THAT THEY WOULD BE USING IT FOR A MASS SHOOTING THE NEXT DAY AFTER THEY THAT SYSTEM EACH TEACHER WEARS AND IT HAS AN ALERT BADGE THAT THEY CARRY WITH A BUTTON. AND WHEN AN EVENT HAPPENS, THEY CAN PUSH THAT BUTTON SO MANY TIMES AND IT ALERTS LAW ENFORCEMENT. ONCE YOU PRESS THE BUTTON, DEPENDING ON HOW MANY TIMES YOU PRESS THE BUTTON, A ALERTS THE PROPER AUTHORITIES. SO LET'S SAY IT'S A MEDICAL EMERGENCY AND, YOU KNOW, IT CAN ALERT THE AMBULANCE IF IT IS A FIGHT IN THE SCHOOL, IT CAN ALERT THE ROSE IF IT'S MAYBE SOME SORT OF VIOLENCE THE POLICE NEED TO BE INVOLVED IN. YOU PRESS IT A CERTAIN NUMBER OF TIMES AND THEN LAW ENFORCEMENT CAN ARRIVE. >> IT PULLS UP A MAP AND THE DEPUTY CAN SEE OR THE POLICE OFFICER SHOWING OR THE PUBLIC SAFETY OFFICER SHOWING EXACTLY WHERE THAT EMERGENCY IS AT. AND WE KNOW WHAT HOW TO GO ON THE SHERIFF TELLS ME THERE WERE 26 TEACHERS IN THAT SCHOOL BUILDING WHOSE SIMULTANEOUSLY PRESS THAT BUTTON WHEN THIS SHOOTING HAPPENED. AND SO THE ALERTS POPPED UP ON THEIR PHONES, ON THEIR COMPUTER SYSTEMS. AND SO THEY RUSHED HERE WITHIN 6 MINUTES. AND ALL 13 PEOPLE WHO WERE SHOT, FOUR OF THEM DIED. BUT THE SHERIFF TELLS ME THAT MORE OF THEM COULD HAVE DIED HAD IT NOT BEEN FOR THEIR QUICK RESPONSE. >> AND THANK GOODNESS, ALTHOUGH THEN YOU THINK LIKE AS QUICKLY AS THAT, THAT WAS ALMOST BEST CASE SCENARIO. AND STILL FOUR PEOPLE LOSE THEIR LIVES. NINE OTHERS ARE INJURED IN THIS LIFE ALTERING EVENT. >> FAITH ABUBEY DARREN WINDER, GEORGIA, RIGHT NOW, THANK YOU SO MUCH. THANK YOU, BRAD. NOW, AMERICA'S PROBLEM WITH MASS SHOOTINGS WAS FULLY ON DISPLAY THIS WEEKEND BECAUSE OBVIOUSLY IT'S NOT JUST GEORGIA AND IT'S NOT JUST SCHOOLS. THIS WEEKEND, POLICE IN KENTUCKY RESPONDED TO REPORTS OF AN ACTIVE SHOOTER ON INTERSTATE 75 SHOOTING AT VEHICLES. >> WE JUST HEARD THIS LOUD DEAFENING SOUND. AND IN MY EAR, MY RIGHT EAR STARTED RINGING AND WE DIDN'T KNOW WHAT THE SOUND WAS, BUT WE BOTH LOOKED AT EACH OTHER AND SAID, WAS THAT A GUNSHOT? >> LET'S BRING IN ABC'S ALEX PRESHA, WHO'S IN LAUREL COUNTY, KENTUCKY RIGHT NOW. ALEX, WHAT DO WE KNOW ABOUT HOW THIS ALL UNFOLDED? >> WELL, BRAD, I MEAN, IT WAS A TERRIFYING SCENE. SATURDAY AFTERNOON AROUND 530, POLICE GOT REPORTS OF SHOTS BEING FIRED AT CARS ALONG I-75 ,WHICH IS THIS MAIN INTERSTATE THAT GOES THROUGH KENTUCKY. >> I GOT TO SERVE TWO SHOTS IN HIS VEHICLE. >> HE'S HANDSOME AND A LOT OF IT'S PLAYED OUT OVER POLICE SCANNERS. WE HAVE THIS TOOL CALLED BROADCAST IFY WHERE WE CAN LISTEN TO THIS. >> THESE ALSO RUN OF THE WOODS, NO SHIRT, SWEATING PROFUSELY. >> WE HEARD FROM EYEWITNESSES. THERE WAS ONE WOMAN WHO WAS ON HER WAY TO TENNESSEE WITH A FRIEND. >> WE WERE IN THE MIDDLE LANE AND ALL OF A SUDDEN WE HEARD WHAT SOUNDED LIKE A LOUD ALMOST AN EXPLOSION COMING FROM THE RIGHT HAND SIDE OF THE VEHICLE. >> AND IT WASN'T UNTIL THEY GOT OUT OF THE CAR THAT THEY REALIZED THAT IT WAS THEIR CAR THAT MAY HAVE GOTTEN HIT BY A BULLET. >> WE GOT OUT OF THE CAR AND I NOTICED THAT THE RIM OF MY FORERUNNER HAD LIKE AN INDENT AND LOOKED LIKE A BULLET OR SOME RICOCHET HAPPENED TO IT AND IT DENTED THE METAL. >> AT LEAST NINE VEHICLES WERE HIT. FIVE VICTIMS. WE'RE TOLD THAT WHILE THESE VICTIMS ARE EXPECTED TO SURVIVE, THEIR INJURIES ARE QUITE SEVERE. >> ONE INDIVIDUAL WAS SHOT IN THE FACE. ONE INDIVIDUAL HAD AN ARM THAT WAS VERY, VERY SERIOUSLY INJURED. >> THE SHERIFF'S PIO TELLING US THAT, YOU KNOW, IT'S GOING TO CHANGE THE LIVES OF OF MANY OF THESE PEOPLE. >> STABLE IS THE LAST WORD THAT WE HAD ON ALL FIVE SHOOTING VICTIMS. >> THE RIPPLE EFFECT IS THAT IT LOCKED DOWN THE INTERSTATE FOR HOURS AS AUTHORITIES CLOSED IN AND TRIED TO FIGURE OUT WHO WAS DOING THIS AND WHY. >> WHAT AN ALEX. I MEAN, POLICE HAVE NOW IDENTIFIED A PERSON OF INTEREST OR A SUSPECT. WHAT ARE POLICE SAYING ABOUT THAT PERSON AND WHAT'S BEEN HAPPENING WITH THEIR INVESTIGATION. SO THE PERSON OF INTEREST, JOSEPH COUCH, HAS OFFICIALLY BEEN UPGRADED TO A SUSPECT. AND THERE ARE A COUPLE OF BIG BREAKS IN THIS CASE. NUMBER ONE, THEY FOUND THE CAR. THEY FOUND THIS SILVER TOYOTA RAV4 ON A FOREST SERVICE ACCESS ROAD NEAR THE HIGHWAY AND LEARNED THAT IT BELONGED TO THIS GUY, JOSEPH COUCH, AND ALSO IN THE WOODS, THEY FOUND AN AR-15 STYLE WEAPON AND SOME FULLY CHARGED MAGAZINES, MEANING THAT THESE MAGAZINES WERE FULLY LOADED. AND IT IS IN A WOODED AREA NEXT TO THE INTERSTATE IN A LOCATION THAT HE COULD HAVE SHOT DOWN UPON THE INTERSTATE FROM THAT WOODED LOCATION. >> THEY BELIEVE THAT WHERE THAT AIR 15 WAS IS WHERE COUCH NOW THEIR SUSPECT IN THIS, SAT AS HE SHOT AT CARS PASSING BY ON THE HIGHWAY, WHICH IS THE IDEA, ALEX, THAT POLICE ARE THINKING HE WAS JUST SITTING THERE FIRING RANDOMLY AND THEN RAN INTO THE WOODS BECAUSE HOW DO YOU EVEN FIND A GUY LIKE THAT GOING FORWARD? >> THAT IS, THEY'RE WORKING THEORY. THEY SAY THAT THIS WAS NOT ROAD RAGE. THEY SAY THAT IT WAS SOMETHING THAT WAS CALCULATED AND PLANNED. >> BUT THE VICTIMS HAVE BEEN RANDOM. >> I MEAN, YOU'VE GOT FIVE DIFFERENT VICTIMS THAT HAVE BEEN SHOT ONCE FROM KENTUCKY, THE REST FROM WHILE THIS GUY HAS ABANDONED HIS WEAPON. >> IT APPEARS THAT HE'S ABANDONED HIS CAR AND NOW HE'S IN THIS REALLY RUGGED, REMOTE TERRAIN. AND WE DON'T REALLY KNOW THAT HE HAS MANY RESOURCES IS IT'S VERY, VERY, VERY REMOTE. >> THE TREES ALMOST BUMP INTO A TREE EVERY TWO OR THREE FEET. >> ALSO, THIS MAKES THE SEARCH HARD AS WELL. THEY SAID SATURDAY NIGHT THEY WENT UNTIL ABOUT THREE IN THE MORNING, BUT ULTIMATELY HAD TO CALL IT OFF BECAUSE, FRANKLY, IT WAS JUST SO DARK OUT THERE THAT IT WASN'T SAFE. SOME NERVE RACKING TO PEOPLE AROUND THIS AREA OVER THE WEEKEND. OBVIOUSLY, LIFE CHANGING TO SO MANY PEOPLE THAT WERE HIT IN, THIS MASS SHOOTING. >> ALL RIGHT, ALEX PRESHA THERE IN KENTUCKY RIGHT NOW. THANK YOU. THANKS, BRAD. NEXT UP ON "START HERE", THE GROUND RULES ARE SET, BUT ARE THE CANDIDATES READY? >> WE'LL TAKE YOU BEHIND THE SCENES IN PENNSYLVANIA AFTER THE BREAK. >> WITH SO MUCH AT STAKE, MUCH ON THE LINE, MORE AMERICANS TURN HERE THAN ANY OTHER NEWSCAST. ABC NEWS, "WORLD NEWS TONIGHT" WITH DAVID MUIR, AMERICA'S NUMBER ONE MOST WATCHED NEWSCAST ACROSS ALL OF TELEVISION. >> AND IN THE CASE OF WINNING AMERICA, GOOD MORNING, AMERICA. GOOD MORNING, AMERICA. >> YOU DON'T JUST SEE IT. YOU FEEL IT. I'M IN HERE. GOOD MORNING, AMERICA. >> LET'S GO. THIS SHIP IS INCREDIBLE. IT FEELS LIKE LIVING IN A SCIENCE FICTION MOVIE. WE JUST SAW WHAT NO ONE HAS SEEN BEFORE. LOOK AT THAT. OH, MY GOSH. WOW. WE ARE HEADING INTO THE UNKNOWN HAMMER. HAMMER. AND IT DOESN'T GET ANY MORE CUTTING EDGE. AND THIS TUESDAY NIGHT, THE MOST CONSEQUENTIAL MOMENT OF THIS CAMPAIGN. KAMALA HARRIS. TOGETHER, WE WILL TALK NO WAY OVER DONALD TRUMP. WE WILL SOON BE A GREAT NATION AGAIN. FACE TO FACE HISTORIC. >> THE ABC NEWS PRESIDENTIAL DEBATE MODERATED BY DAVID MUIR AND LINSEY DAVIS TUESDAY NIGHT LIVE ON ABC AND STREAMING ON ABC NEWS LIVE. HULU AND DISNEY PLUS THE ABC NEWS PRESIDENTIAL DEBATE. >> NOW YOU MIGHT HAVE HEARD. TOMORROW NIGHT IS DEBATE NIGHT. THIS WAS SCHEDULED AS THE SECOND DEBATE BETWEEN PRESIDENT BIDEN AND FORMER PRESIDENT TRUMP. WELL, ROUND ONE WAS SO IMPACTFUL THAT THE DEMOCRATS HAVE FIELDED AN ENTIRELY DIFFERENT CANDIDATE. THAT MEANS THAT THIS DEBATE, WHICH IS BEING HOSTED BY ABC NEWS IN PHILADELPHIA, IS QUITE POSSIBLY THE ONLY TIME WE SEE KAMALA HARRIS AND DONALD TRUMP ON A STAGE TOGETHER THIS YEAR. AND THEREFORE, IT'LL BE ONE OF THE BIGGEST INFLECTION POINTS IMAGINABLE FOR AMERICANS WHO HAVE YET TO MAKE UP THEIR MINDS. SO HOW IS EACH CANDIDATE PREPPING? LET'S HIT THE CAMPAIGN TRAIL WITH ABC'S WHITE HOUSE CORRESPONDENT MARYALICE PARKS. SHE'S ACTUALLY FOLLOWING THE HARRIS CAMPAIGN IN PITTSBURGH RIGHT NOW. >> MARYALICE SET THE STAGE FOR US. HOW IMPORTANT IS THIS DEBATE TO EACH OF THESE CAMPAIGNS? >> BRAD, I THINK THAT YOU'RE RIGHT THAT DEBATES ALWAYS HAVE THE POTENTIAL TO BE THESE HUGE INFLECTION POINTS. BUT THE STAKES DO FEEL EVEN HIGHER RIGHT NOW. >> I MEAN, I THINK THAT'S BECAUSE WHAT YOU SAID THIS WILL LIKELY BE THE ONLY TIME THAT HARRIS AND TRUMP DEBATE EACH OTHER WERE SO LATE IN THE SEASON. THEY'VE ONLY AGREED THIS ONE DEBATE. I 60 DAYS BEFORE THE ELECTION AND SO MUCH HAS HAPPENED. >> WE KNOW THIS WILL BE A TIGHT RACE UNTIL THE VERY END. AND SO LET'S NOT PAY TOO MUCH ATTENTION TO THE POLLS. >> I MEAN, THERE'S SO MANY QUESTIONS STILL FOR HARRIS ABOUT TAKING OVER THE DEMOCRATIC TICKET, ABOUT EVERYTHING THAT HAPPENED THIS SUMMER. AND, LOOK, THE STAKES ARE HIGH BECAUSE THE RACE IS SO CLOSE. I MEAN, THE BATTLEGROUND STATE POLLS SHOW REALLY A TOSS UP RACE AND. SO I THINK THAT BOTH CAMPAIGNS REALIZE THAT THIS COULD BE AN ABSOLUTE MAKE OR BREAK MOMENT FOR BOTH OF THEM. >> I THINK THAT UNLIKE THE NEW YORK TIMES, CNN COLLEGE POLL THIS WEEKEND, THAT I THINK IT'S LIKE 28% OF VOTERS SAID THEY STILL NEED TO LEARN MORE ABOUT KAMALA HARRIS. ONLY 9% SAID THE SAME ABOUT TRUMP. LIKE THEY KNOW HIM. DOES THAT AFFECT HOW EACH OF THESE CANDIDATES ARE PREPPING? >> YEAH, ABSOLUTELY. I MEAN, LOOK, THE HARRIS TEAM HAS SAID THAT FOR A WHILE, THAT THEY KNOW THEY STILL HAVE THIS MOMENT TO SORT OF INTRODUCE HER TO THE COUNTRY THAT THEY FEEL LIKE A LOT OF AMERICANS TO THE POINT OF THAT POLL, THAT A LOT OF AMERICANS ALREADY HAVE STRONG OPINIONS. ONE WAY OR THE OTHER ABOUT FORMER PRESIDENT TRUMP, BUT THAT SOME ARE STILL REALLY DECIDING ABOUT HER, REALLY CONSIDERING HER. YOU KNOW, WE'VE SEEN HER IN THE LAST FEW WEEKS REALLY MAKE A PLAY FOR FOR A MODERATE, YOU KNOW, THE SORT OF CHAMBER OF COMMERCE TYPE REPUBLICANS SWING VOTERS. SHE'S PUT OUT SOME ECONOMIC POLICIES, TAX POLICIES OBVIOUSLY ROLLING OUT A LOT OF REPUBLICAN ENDORSEMENTS, EVEN HER TEAM SAYS THAT THEY'RE TAKING NO CHANCES WHEN IT COMES TO JUST THE FUNDAMENTALS OF THE DEBATE, TOO. I MEAN, WE'VE BEEN STAKED OUT INSIDE THIS HOTEL IN PITTSBURGH WHERE SHE'S BEEN MOSTLY INSIDE HOLDING THESE STUDY SESSIONS WITH HER TEAM. I MEAN, THEY'VE BEEN DOING FOR MOCK DEBATES. WE KNOW THEY SET UP A WHOLE STAGE FULL TV LIGHTING. I MEAN, THE WORKS. THEY THEY HAVE SOMEONE PLAYING TRUMP THEN APPARENTLY IS TAKING ON SORT OF A REAL METHOD ACTOR APPROACH, WEARING A SUIT AND TIE AND EVERYTHING, TRYING TO FIGURE OUT IN GAME PLAN WHAT IT ACTUALLY COULD LOOK LIKE. I MEAN, LOOK, HE'S HE'S TOUGH TO GO AGAINST. THERE'S A WHOLE LOT OF POLITICIANS OUT THERE, DEMOCRATS AND REPUBLICANS, THAT HAVE HAD A REALLY HARD TIME DEBATING. YOU KNOW, HE HE DOESN'T OFTEN TALK ABOUT POLICY. I'M THINKING BACK TO HIS FIRST DEBATES WITH HILLARY CLINTON, WHERE YOU KNOW, JUST THE PHYSICALITY OF ALL THAT BECAME SUCH A BIG DEAL. THEN, YOU KNOW, SOME OF HIS FIRST DEBATES WITH PRESIDENT BIDEN, THE LAST CYCLE WHERE HE INTERRUPTED SO MUCH, THAT BECAME A BIG PART OF THE. YOU KNOW, HE OFTEN IS VERY LOOSE WITH FACTS AND HE OFTEN IS A HARD PART FOR OTHER CANDIDATES. FIGURE OUT, DO THEY FACT CHECK HIM AND THEN DO THEY JUST FALL INTO HIS OWN TRAPS? THEY WANT TO TALK ABOUT THEIR OWN STUFF. SO, YEAH, WELL, YOU KNOW, THIS IS HER FIRST PRESIDENTIAL DEBATE. HER TEAM KNOWS THAT THIS IS HIS SEVEN. AND SO THEY LIKE I SAID, THEY'RE NOT TAKING ANY CHANCES. THEY'VE BEEN REALLY SETTING AND PREPPING THIS WEEKEND. >> IS IT THE SAME WITH FORMER PRESIDENT TRUMP THEN? I GUESS I MEAN, HIS TEAM, YOU KNOW, AND AND THE FORMER PRESIDENT HIMSELF, THEY LIKE TO SAY, OH, HE DOESN'T NEED PRACTICE. HE'S LIKE BORN READY. YOU KNOW, THAT'S WHAT HE'S SORT OF HIS POSTURE. I'VE DONE THIS. HE SORT OF MAKES FUN OF THE IDEA OF STUDYING THAT. I'D RATHER RUN AGAINST HER. I THINK SHE'S EASIER TO BEAT. >> I REALLY DO. I BELIEVE THAT. BUT LOOK, HIS TEAM SAYS THAT WHILE THEY WELL, THEY'RE NOT, YOU KNOW, DOING THESE BIG FORMAL MOCK DEBATES, THEY ARE, OF COURSE, GETTING READY. HE HAS BEEN HAVING POLICY MEETINGS, POLICY DISCUSSIONS. WE KNOW THAT SOME OF HIS ADVISERS FOR THIS HAVE BEEN REPRESENTATIVE MATT GATES, ALSO FORMER REPRESENTATIVE TULSI GABBARD. YOU KNOW, WHEN SHE WAS RUNNING FOR PRESIDENT AS A DEMOCRAT, SHE WAS ON THE DEBATE STAGE AGAINST KAMALA HARRIS. AND SHE OBVIOUSLY BRINGS AN INTERESTING PERSPECTIVE IN THAT WAY. >> YOU KNOW, I'M SURE THAT HE'S BEEN LOOKING AT HER PAST DEBATES. I MEAN, THAT'S SOME OF WHAT HIS TEAM HAS BEEN SAYING. AT LEAST THEY'VE BEEN LOOKING AT SOME OF HARRIS' PAST DEBATES AND NO DOUBT THEY ARE SEEING SORT OF STUDYING TRUMP'S PAST DEBATES AS WELL. HE AS FAR AS THE FORMAT, LIKE YOU SAID, KAMALA HARRIS IS UP THERE WITH THE LIGHTS ON THE STAGE AND LIKE THERE ARE PODIUMS. I THINK THEY'VE BEEN GIVEN POSITIONS AT THIS POINT. >> WONDER IF SHE PRACTICES ON THE SAME SIDE. ARE THERE RULES? I KNOW RULES WERE SORT OF FINALIZED RECENTLY. ARE THERE ANY RULES THAT WOULD IMPACT ANYTHING HERE? YEAH, ABSOLUTELY. I MEAN, FIRST, NO LIVE AUDIENCE. THAT IS A BIG DEAL, RIGHT? YOU KNOW, TRUMP FEEDS OFF AN AUDIENCE HERE. HE LIKES THE ENERGY OF A CROWD . >> SO I THINK THAT THAT'S A PART OF THIS THAT WILL MAKE A DIFFERENCE. BUT ALSO, YOU KNOW, THE FACT THAT THE MICROPHONES ARE ONLY GOING TO BE ON WHEN IT'S THE CANDIDATE'S TURN TO SPEAK, THEY'RE GOING TO BE MUTED IN BETWEEN. I'M WONDERING IF THAT ACTUALLY COULD BE IN IN TRUMP'S FAVOR. >> ALSO, I'M THINKING ABOUT WHEN HARRIS DEBATED MIKE PENCE IN THE VICE PRESIDENTIAL DEBATE. >> JOE BIDEN HAS BEEN VERY CLEAR HE WILL NOT RAISE TAXES ON ANYBODY WHO MAKES LESS THAN $400,000 A YEAR. REPEAL THE TRUMP TAX CUTS. MR. VICE PRESIDENT, I'M SPEAKING WELL AND SPEAKING. >> SHE REALLY. OH, THAT ROOM OH, THAT MOMENT MADE HIM LOOK LIKE SOMEONE THAT WAS INTERRUPTING A WOMAN, RIGHT? YOU KNOW, I IMAGINE THAT HER TEAM PROBABLY WAS HOPING FOR SOME KIND OF SIMILAR INTERACTION WITH TRUMP. IT'S EASY FOR TRUMP TO LOOK LIKE IT'S KIND OF FALL INTO BEING THE ONE THAT'S TRYING TO TALK OVER HIS OPPONENT. BUT IF THE MICROPHONES ARE MUTED, WHAT DOES THAT MEAN? HOW DOES THAT PLAY? >> ARE THERE THINGS THAT HAPPEN IN THE ROOM? THAT'S A READ ON THE MICROPHONES. I MEAN, IT'S FASCINATING. SO, YES, I THINK THE RULES COULD IN SOME ACTUALLY MAKE A DIFFERENCE ON TUESDAY NIGHT. YEAH, IT REALLY INTERESTING BECAUSE THESE WERE THE RULES THAT WERE ORIGINALLY AGREED TO BY PRESIDENT BIDEN AND FORMER PRESIDENT TRUMP. WELL, NOW THERE'S A WHOLE DIFFERENT CANDIDATE DEALING WITH THEM. OKAY. MARYALICE PARKS TRACKING, THE HARRIS CAMPAIGN RIGHT NOW IN PITTSBURGH. >> WE'LL SEE YOU LATER. THANKS, BRAD. OKAY, ONE MORE QUICK BREAK. >> WHEN WE COME BACK. DON'T ADOPT THAT TONE WITH ME. ONE LAST THING IS NEXT. >> IT'S LUNCHTIME IN AMERICA, SO WHY DON'T WE SERVE ON THAT? WELL, HOW ABOUT EVERYTHING YOU NEED TO KNOW? >> WE NEED YOUR HELP. YOUR MONEY. BREAKING NEWS, POP CULTURE WITH THE BIGGEST STARS. MUSIC TRENDS, AND, OF COURSE, GOOD FOOD. COMING UP ON "GMA3", YOU'RE GOING TO LOVE IT. WE'LL SEE YOU THEN. THREE WHAT YOU NEED TO KNOW. A THIRD HOUR OF "GMA" IN THE AFTERNOON. SO JOIN US. AFTERNOON FOR EVERYTHING YOU NEED TO KNOW ABOUT THAT. >> THREE TO. >> WITH SO MUCH AT STAKE, SO MUCH ON THE LINE. MORE TURN HERE THAN ANY OTHER NEWSCAST. ABC NEWS WORLD NEWS TONIGHT WITH DAVID MUIR, AMERICA'S NUMBER ONE MOST WATCHED NEWSCAST ACROSS ALL OF TELEVISION. >> HI, I'M ANDY. AND I'M SABRINA. AND WE'RE MOMS JUGGLING TONS OF STUFF EVERY DAY. LIKE ALL YOU MOMS OUT THERE. >> AND YOU KNOW WHAT? WE LOVE? REALLY LOVE POP CULTURE. SO LISTEN NOW TO OUR NEW PODCAST, POP CULTURE MOMS. WHEREVER YOU GET YOUR PODCASTS LET'S GO. WE ARE HEADING INTO THE UNKNOWN. OH, MY GOSH. WE JUST SAW WHAT NO ONE HAS SEEN BEFORE. AND IT DOESN'T GET ANY MORE CUTTING EDGE. AND THIS REPORTING FROM THE DEVASTATING FLOOD ZONES IN SOUTH DAKOTA. I'M MELISSA. DAN, WHEREVER THE STORY IS, WE'LL TAKE YOU THERE. YOU'RE STREAMING ABC NEWS LIVE . >> AND ONE LAST THING. >> ANYONE WHO'S EVER ADOPTED A CHILD KNOWS IT CAN BE EIGHT YEARS LONG PROCESS FILLED WITH CONFUSION AND BUREAUCRACY SEE. >> WELL, THIS WEEKEND, HUNDREDS OF PLANNED ADOPTIONS WERE THROWN INTO CHAOS AFTER CHINA ANNOUNCED IT'S ENDING THE PRACTICE OF FOREIGNERS ADOPTING CHILDREN. >> TOMORROW, THE CURRENT FOREIGN MINISTRY SPOKESPERSON, MAO NING, SAID LATE LAST WEEK THAT WHILE CHINA APPRECIATES THE LOVE AND KINDNESS THAT FOREIGN PARENTS AND GOVERNMENTS HAVE SHOWN IN THE PAST, CHINA WILL NO LONGER SEND ITS CHILDREN ABROAD FOR ADOPTION. >> AND IN THE WORLD OF ADOPTIONS, THIS IS A REALLY BIG DEAL. FROM THE EARLY AUGHTS THROUGH 2016, THE U.S. ALONE WAS RESPONSIBLE FOR ADOPTING UP TO 3000 CHINESE CHILDREN PER YEAR. MY LITTLE COUSIN, ONE OF THEM, WHO I REFUSE TO BELIEVE IS NOT GENETICALLY RELATED TO ME BECAUSE SHE'S GOT THE EXACT SAME PERSONALITY, THE EXACT SAME LOUD VOICE. >> AT ANY RATE THE ADOPTION RATE SLOWED DURING CHINA'S RESTRICTIVE COVID LOCKDOWNS, AND NOW THE ONLY FOREIGNERS ALLOWED TO ADOPT IN CHINA WILL BE STEPPARENTS AND FAMILY MEMBERS WITH CHINESE ROOTS. >> THIS ACTUALLY SPEAKS TO SOME TRENDS IN EACH COUNTRY. FOR DECADES, AMID FEARS OF OVERPOPULATION AND FOOD SHORTAGES, CHINA ENFORCED ITS ONE CHILD POLICY, WHICH RESULTED IN MILLIONS OF CHILDREN, MOSTLY GIRLS, BEING SENT TO ORPHANAGES. >> ONE CHILD PER FAMILY, SHE SAYS, OR ELSE. I SAW SOME WOMEN THAT WERE NINE MONTHS PREGNANT PUT ON THE OPERATING TABLE AND FORCED TO HAVE ABORTION. >> IN RECENT YEARS, THOUGH, THE GOVERNMENT EASED THESE RESTRICTIONS AND EVENTUALLY DID AWAY WITH THEM ALTOGETHER, RESULTING IN LESS NEED FOR FOREIGN ADOPTERS. BUT YOU CAN ALSO SENSE LITTLE BIT OF NATIONAL PRIDE HERE IN A COUNTRY THAT IS SO OFTEN FELT BELITTLED BY FOREIGNERS. MANY HAVE EXPRESSED RESENTMENT AT THESE FAMILIES SWOOPING TO TAKE CHILDREN AWAY TO WHAT THEY THINK IS A BETTER LIFE. IN RECENT YEARS, THE CHINESE GOVERNMENT HAS MADE A POINT OF PRIORITIZING DOMESTIC ADOPTIONS. IT WAS ACTUALLY FIVE YEARS AGO THIS MONTH THAT WE WERE MATCHED WITH A LITTLE GIRL NAMED THAT WE CALLED PENELOPE. >> MEANWHILE, IN THE U.S., THIS ANNOUNCEMENT HAS DERAILED ADOPTION PROCESSES THAT WERE ALREADY UNDERWAY. >> WE KNOW SHE'S FOR FIVE YEARS HAS CALLED ME MOM FOR FIVE YEARS. >> SHE'S CALLED MY HUSBAND. HER FATHER. HUNDREDS OF WOULD BE PARENTS HAD ALREADY BEEN PAIRED WITH THEIR ADOPTIVE KIDS. AND AS THE PANDEMIC STRETCHED ON, THEY WERE TOLD TO WAIT ONE YEAR AND TWO YEARS. WELL, YEARS LATER, THIS DOOR IS BEING SLAMMED SHUT AND THEY'RE ALL BEING TOLD TO START THEIR JOURNEY ELSEWHERE. >> SHE CARRIES A BLANKET WITH HER EVERYWHERE THAT, HAS A PICTURE OF OUR FAMILY ON IT. >> SO IN HER, WE ARE HER FAMILY AND SHE'S BEEN WAITING FOR US. ALSO LAYS BARE QUESTIONS THAT WERE ALREADY FILLED WITH ETHICAL LANDMINES FOR ADOPTIVE FAMILIES. ADOPTING DOMESTICALLY IN THE U.S. IS NOTORIOUSLY DIFFICULT, BUT MANY OF THE REASONS ARE PRETTY LEGITIMATE ONES, LIKE COMING TO TERMS WITH HOW MUCH CONTACT BIRTH PARENTS SHOULD HAVE. >> IF IT'S SIMPLER IN A FOREIGN COUNTRY, DOES THAT COME AT THE EXPENSE OF SOME OF THOSE FOREIGN FAMILIES, OR ARE YOU JUST HELPING A CHILD FORGE THE BEST LIFE POSSIBLE? MAYBE IT'S ALL A SIMPLE SUPPLY AND DEMAND ISSUE, BUT SUPPLY AND DEMAND ITSELF IS A CREEPY PHRASE WHEN YOU'RE DISCUSSING CHILDREN'S LIVES. >> IN ANY CASE, THIS WEEK, LOTS OF PROSPECTIVE AMERICAN FAMILIES WILL HAVE TO START FROM SCRATCH AS CHINA PROMISES TO KEEP WHAT'S THEIRS . I FEEL LIKE WE DO MANY STORIES ABOUT FERTILITY ON THE SHOW. SHOUT OUT TO ALL THE ADOPTIVE FAMILIES AND FAMILIES OUT THERE. HEY, BIG EXCITING NEWS, BY THE WAY, BECAUSE ABC NEWS IS HOSTING THE DEBATE TOMORROW NIGHT AT 9 P.M. EASTERN, BY THE WAY, AN 8 P.M. SPECIAL ON ABC AND ABC NEWS LIVE SHOULD BE REALLY GOOD. >> WE ARE ABLE TO POST THE RAW AUDIO OF THE DEBATE RIGHT HERE ON THE START HERE FEED TUESDAY NIGHT RIGHT AFTER EVERYTHING.

SEVERAL NEW DEVELOPMENTS HERE. THE WEEKEND AND ABC'S FAITH ABUBEY HAS BEEN AT THE SCENE OF THE SHOOTING SINCE IT HAPPENED. FAITH. WHAT HAVE WE LEARNED ABOUT WHAT MAY HAVE TRANSPIRED IN THE MOMENTS LEADING UP TO THE SHOOTING? >> YES. SO, BRAD, I JUST WANT TO PREFACE THIS BY SAYING ALL THIS INFORMATION I'M ABOUT TO SHARE WITH YOU ABOUT THE MOMENTS LEADING UP TO THE SHOOTING IS FROM THE AUNT. SHE CONFIRMED DETAILS TO ABC NEWS AFTER THEY WERE FIRST REPORTED IN THE WASHINGTON POST. BUT AT THIS POINT, THEY'RE STILL JUST ALLEGATIONS. NOW, WHAT HAPPENED, ACCORDING TO THE IS THAT AFTER THE SHOOTING HAPPENED, SHE RECEIVED A TEXT MESSAGE FROM HER SISTER WHO WOULD BE THE ACCUSED SHOOTER'S MOTHER AND SHE SAYS THAT HER SISTER TOLD HER THAT ON THE DAY OF THE SHOOTING RIGHT AROUND MAYBE 950 IN THE MORNING, SHE CALLED THE SCHOOL AND SPOKE WITH A COUNSELOR. THAT'S THE ACCUSED SHOOTER'S MOTHER, CALLED THE SCHOOL, SPOKE TO A COUNSELOR TO WARN THEM ABOUT WHAT SHE SAID WAS AN EXTREME EMERGENCY. AND SHE SAYS SHE TOLD THEM TO IMMEDIATELY GO AND CHECK IN ON HER SON BECAUSE THERE WAS SOMETHING WRONG. AND SO THAT WAS ROUGHLY MAYBE ABOUT 30 MINUTES BEFORE THE FIRST GUNFIRE WAS REPORTED. "THE WASHINGTON POST" DID LOOK AT THE CALL LOGS AND DID CONFIRM THAT THERE WAS A PHONE CALL THAT HAPPENED TO THE SCHOOL BEFORE THE SHOOTING HAPPENED THAT MORNING. IT'S NOT CLEAR HOW THE SCHOOL REACTED. BUT IT'S ALSO INTERESTING BECAUSE SEPARATELY FROM THAT, WE SPOKE WITH THE CLASSMATE OF THE ACCUSED SHOOTER. SHE WAS IN CLASS. SHE WAS IN ALGEBRA CLASS WITH THE TEENAGER THAT MORNING. AND SHE TELLS US THAT A SCHOOL ADMINISTRATOR CAME INTO THEIR CLASSROOM AFTER THE TEENAGER LEFT THE CLASS. THE ADMINISTRATOR CAME IN AND GRABBED A BACKPACK. THAT BACKPACK BELONGED TO SOMEONE ELSE WHOSE NAME IS VERY SIMILAR TO THE ACCUSED SHOOTER HERE. YEAH. THEY TOOK THE BACKPACK AND THEN CAME BACK AND GAVE IT BACK TO THE STUDENT. >> OBVIOUSLY, WHEN HE CAME BACK WITH THIS BAG, WE KNEW AT THAT POINT THEY WERE LOOKING FOR COLE AND HIS BAG. SO WE THOUGHT HE HAD SOMETHING FROM HER UNDERSTANDING BECAUSE SHE'S FRIENDS WITH THAT STUDENT. SHE WAS TOLD THAT THERE WAS CONFUSION. THEY WERE ACTUALLY LOOKING FOR THE ACCUSED TEENAGER. >> I DON'T THINK SHE REALLY KNEW LIKE THAT. HE WAS ANGRY UNTIL LIKE THE SHOTS WENT OFF. LIKE NO ONE REALLY KNEW HE HAD A GUN. >> ALL THAT HAPPENED JUST MOMENTS BEFORE THAT GUNFIRE ERUPTED IN THAT HALLWAY. >> I SEE. WHICH THEN, OF COURSE, WOULD LEAD TO QUESTIONS LIKE, WAS EVERYONE ON THE SAME PAGE? FROM THE MOMENT THIS STARTED HAPPENING, THE POLICE HAVE SAID THEY DON'T HAVE ANY RECORDS OF THESE CALLS, APPARENTLY. SO WHAT WAS THE WARNING EXACTLY TO THE FAMILY IS CLAIMING THEY GAVE? BECAUSE IF THEY'RE SAYING THERE'S AN EMERGENCY, WHAT TYPE OF EMERGENCY DO THEY MEAN? >> YES. ACCORDING TO THE WASHINGTON POST, THE CLAIMS THAT WERE PUBLISHED BY THEM, THEY SAID THAT THE MOTHER TALKED TO THE COUNSELOR AND THE COUNSELOR MENTIONED THAT THE ACCUSED TEENAGER WAS TALKING ABOUT A SCHOOL SHOOTING EARLIER IN THE MORNING. SO ALL OF THIS IS COMING FROM THE AUNT. THEY ARE STILL ALLEGATIONS AT THIS POINT. THEY SAID THAT THERE WAS A DISCUSSION ABOUT THE BOY'S MENTAL HEALTH AT SOME POINT LEADING UP TO THE SHOOTING. THERE WERE CONVERSATION LINES ABOUT SCHOOL SHOOTINGS. >> I REALLY HOPE THAT THEY GIVE US AN ANSWER AS TO WHY HE WAS HERE AND WAS HE ALREADY ON THEIR RADAR THAT THEY KNEW THAT COULD BE A POSSIBILITY? AND WERE THEY WATCHING HIM, JUST ALL OF THAT IS PLAYING INTO ALL OF THESE QUESTIONS THAT PEOPLE IN THIS COMMUNITY HAVE. DID THIS BOY SLIP THROUGH THE CRACKS? WAS THIS BOY ON THE RADAR OF A LOT OF PEOPLE FROM LAW ENFORCEMENT TO SCHOOL OFFICIALS AND THEN NOBODY TOOK ACTION IN TIME IN ORDER TO MAKE A DIFFERENCE IN WHAT HAPPENED HERE? >> WELL, LET'S TALK ABOUT THE SCHOOL OFFICIALS, BECAUSE WE KEEP HEARING ABOUT THIS FBI REPORT AND THIS VISIT FROM POLICE IN A NEIGHBORING COUNTY LAST YEAR. BUT WAS THE QUESTION I HAVEN'T HEARD ANSWERED YET WAS, WAS THIS STUDENT KNOWN AT THIS SCHOOL AS A THREAT? >> HAD THEY BEEN WARNED, HEY, WE'VE HAD COMPLAINTS OR CONCERNS ABOUT HIM IN THE PAST. SO AS FAR AS WE KNOW, NO, THEY HAD NO IDEA THAT THIS STUDENT HAD JUST TRANSFERRED TO THEIR DISTRICT TWO WEEKS BEFORE SCHOOL YEAR STARTED A MONTH PRIOR. HE HAD ONLY BEEN IN CLASS MAYBE FIVE, SIX, SEVEN TIMES IN THE TWO WEEK PERIOD THAT HE WAS IN SCHOOL BEFORE HE ALLEGEDLY SHOT UP THE SCHOOL. >> WHEN HE IS THERE IN SCHOOL AND HE'S NOT SKIPPING, HE DOESN'T TALK. THE PREVIOUS COUNTY WHERE HE WAS, THE SHERIFF'S INVESTIGATORS TOLD THE FBI THAT THEY ALERTED THAT SCHOOL DISTRICT THAT THEY NEEDED TO MONITOR HIM BECAUSE OF THIS DISTURBING POST ON SOCIAL MEDIA ABOUT A SCHOOL SHOOTING THAT THEY LEARNED ABOUT BACK IN MAY OF LAST YEAR. >> I GOT TO TAKE ITS WORD, AND I HOPE YOU'RE BEING HONEST. I'M NOT SAYING YOU'RE LYING, BUT IT'S SO SERIOUS. >> THEY SAID THERE WAS NO PROBABLE CAUSE TO ARREST HIM. THEY WANTED THE SCHOOL TO MONITOR HIM. BUT OVER THE WEEKEND, WE LEARNED THAT THE SCHOOL SAID THAT THERE WAS NO RECORD, THAT THE SHERIFF'S INVESTIGATORS ACTUALLY SENT THEM ANY ALERT, TELLING THEM TO MONITOR THIS KID AND THAT THE SHERIFF'S OFFICE ITSELF HAS NO RECORD, THAT IT ACTUALLY DID WHAT IT TOLD THE FBI THAT IT DID. >> SO A LOT OF QUESTIONS STILL LEFT HERE ONCE THE SHOOTING DID TAKE PLACE LAST WEEK, POLICE WERE ON THE SCENE INCREDIBLY FAITH. >> WHY IS THAT? YOU'VE BEEN DOING SOME REPORTING ON THAT. YES. SO THEY SAID THEY WERE WITHIN THE SPAN OF 7 MINUTES. THEY WERE HERE AT THE SCENE. AND THE SHERIFF IN MY ONE ON ONE SIT DOWN WITH HIM SAID THAT THIS WAS CRITICAL. IT POSSIBLY SAVED LIVES BECAUSE OF A SYSTEM THAT THEY HAD JUST INSTALLED JUST A WEEK BEFORE THE SHOOTING. AND, IN FACT, THE DAY BEFORE THE SHOOTING, THEY TESTED THEIR SYSTEM AT ANOTHER TO MAKE SURE IT WORKS. THEY HAD NO IDEA THAT THEY WOULD BE USING IT FOR A MASS SHOOTING THE NEXT DAY AFTER THEY THAT SYSTEM EACH TEACHER WEARS AND IT HAS AN ALERT BADGE THAT THEY CARRY WITH A BUTTON. AND WHEN AN EVENT HAPPENS, THEY CAN PUSH THAT BUTTON SO MANY TIMES AND IT ALERTS LAW ENFORCEMENT. ONCE YOU PRESS THE BUTTON, DEPENDING ON HOW MANY TIMES YOU PRESS THE BUTTON, A ALERTS THE PROPER AUTHORITIES. SO LET'S SAY IT'S A MEDICAL EMERGENCY AND, YOU KNOW, IT CAN ALERT THE AMBULANCE IF IT IS A FIGHT IN THE SCHOOL, IT CAN ALERT THE ROSE IF IT'S MAYBE SOME SORT OF VIOLENCE THE POLICE NEED TO BE INVOLVED IN. YOU PRESS IT A CERTAIN NUMBER OF TIMES AND THEN LAW ENFORCEMENT CAN ARRIVE. >> IT PULLS UP A MAP AND THE DEPUTY CAN SEE OR THE POLICE OFFICER SHOWING OR THE PUBLIC SAFETY OFFICER SHOWING EXACTLY WHERE THAT EMERGENCY IS AT. AND WE KNOW WHAT HOW TO GO ON THE SHERIFF TELLS ME THERE WERE 26 TEACHERS IN THAT SCHOOL BUILDING WHOSE SIMULTANEOUSLY PRESS THAT BUTTON WHEN THIS SHOOTING HAPPENED. AND SO THE ALERTS POPPED UP ON THEIR PHONES, ON THEIR COMPUTER SYSTEMS. AND SO THEY RUSHED HERE WITHIN 6 MINUTES. AND ALL 13 PEOPLE WHO WERE SHOT, FOUR OF THEM DIED. BUT THE SHERIFF TELLS ME THAT MORE OF THEM COULD HAVE DIED HAD IT NOT BEEN FOR THEIR QUICK RESPONSE. >> AND THANK GOODNESS, ALTHOUGH THEN YOU THINK LIKE AS QUICKLY AS THAT, THAT WAS ALMOST BEST CASE SCENARIO. AND STILL FOUR PEOPLE LOSE THEIR LIVES. NINE OTHERS ARE INJURED IN THIS LIFE ALTERING EVENT. >> FAITH ABUBEY DARREN WINDER, GEORGIA, RIGHT NOW, THANK YOU SO MUCH. THANK YOU, BRAD. NOW, AMERICA'S PROBLEM WITH MASS SHOOTINGS WAS FULLY ON DISPLAY THIS WEEKEND BECAUSE OBVIOUSLY IT'S NOT JUST GEORGIA AND IT'S NOT JUST SCHOOLS. THIS WEEKEND, POLICE IN KENTUCKY RESPONDED TO REPORTS OF AN ACTIVE SHOOTER ON INTERSTATE 75 SHOOTING AT VEHICLES. >> WE JUST HEARD THIS LOUD DEAFENING SOUND. AND IN MY EAR, MY RIGHT EAR STARTED RINGING AND WE DIDN'T KNOW WHAT THE SOUND WAS, BUT WE BOTH LOOKED AT EACH OTHER AND SAID, WAS THAT A GUNSHOT? >> LET'S BRING IN ABC'S ALEX PRESHA, WHO'S IN LAUREL COUNTY, KENTUCKY RIGHT NOW. ALEX, WHAT DO WE KNOW ABOUT HOW THIS ALL UNFOLDED? >> WELL, BRAD, I MEAN, IT WAS A TERRIFYING SCENE. SATURDAY AFTERNOON AROUND 530, POLICE GOT REPORTS OF SHOTS BEING FIRED AT CARS ALONG I-75 ,WHICH IS THIS MAIN INTERSTATE THAT GOES THROUGH KENTUCKY. >> I GOT TO SERVE TWO SHOTS IN HIS VEHICLE. >> HE'S HANDSOME AND A LOT OF IT'S PLAYED OUT OVER POLICE SCANNERS. WE HAVE THIS TOOL CALLED BROADCAST IFY WHERE WE CAN LISTEN TO THIS. >> THESE ALSO RUN OF THE WOODS, NO SHIRT, SWEATING PROFUSELY. >> WE HEARD FROM EYEWITNESSES. THERE WAS ONE WOMAN WHO WAS ON HER WAY TO TENNESSEE WITH A FRIEND. >> WE WERE IN THE MIDDLE LANE AND ALL OF A SUDDEN WE HEARD WHAT SOUNDED LIKE A LOUD ALMOST AN EXPLOSION COMING FROM THE RIGHT HAND SIDE OF THE VEHICLE. >> AND IT WASN'T UNTIL THEY GOT OUT OF THE CAR THAT THEY REALIZED THAT IT WAS THEIR CAR THAT MAY HAVE GOTTEN HIT BY A BULLET. >> WE GOT OUT OF THE CAR AND I NOTICED THAT THE RIM OF MY FORERUNNER HAD LIKE AN INDENT AND LOOKED LIKE A BULLET OR SOME RICOCHET HAPPENED TO IT AND IT DENTED THE METAL. >> AT LEAST NINE VEHICLES WERE HIT. FIVE VICTIMS. WE'RE TOLD THAT WHILE THESE VICTIMS ARE EXPECTED TO SURVIVE, THEIR INJURIES ARE QUITE SEVERE. >> ONE INDIVIDUAL WAS SHOT IN THE FACE. ONE INDIVIDUAL HAD AN ARM THAT WAS VERY, VERY SERIOUSLY INJURED. >> THE SHERIFF'S PIO TELLING US THAT, YOU KNOW, IT'S GOING TO CHANGE THE LIVES OF OF MANY OF THESE PEOPLE. >> STABLE IS THE LAST WORD THAT WE HAD ON ALL FIVE SHOOTING VICTIMS. >> THE RIPPLE EFFECT IS THAT IT LOCKED DOWN THE INTERSTATE FOR HOURS AS AUTHORITIES CLOSED IN AND TRIED TO FIGURE OUT WHO WAS DOING THIS AND WHY. >> WHAT AN ALEX. I MEAN, POLICE HAVE NOW IDENTIFIED A PERSON OF INTEREST OR A SUSPECT. WHAT ARE POLICE SAYING ABOUT THAT PERSON AND WHAT'S BEEN HAPPENING WITH THEIR INVESTIGATION. SO THE PERSON OF INTEREST, JOSEPH COUCH, HAS OFFICIALLY BEEN UPGRADED TO A SUSPECT. AND THERE ARE A COUPLE OF BIG BREAKS IN THIS CASE. NUMBER ONE, THEY FOUND THE CAR. THEY FOUND THIS SILVER TOYOTA RAV4 ON A FOREST SERVICE ACCESS ROAD NEAR THE HIGHWAY AND LEARNED THAT IT BELONGED TO THIS GUY, JOSEPH COUCH, AND ALSO IN THE WOODS, THEY FOUND AN AR-15 STYLE WEAPON AND SOME FULLY CHARGED MAGAZINES, MEANING THAT THESE MAGAZINES WERE FULLY LOADED. AND IT IS IN A WOODED AREA NEXT TO THE INTERSTATE IN A LOCATION THAT HE COULD HAVE SHOT DOWN UPON THE INTERSTATE FROM THAT WOODED LOCATION. >> THEY BELIEVE THAT WHERE THAT AIR 15 WAS IS WHERE COUCH NOW THEIR SUSPECT IN THIS, SAT AS HE SHOT AT CARS PASSING BY ON THE HIGHWAY, WHICH IS THE IDEA, ALEX, THAT POLICE ARE THINKING HE WAS JUST SITTING THERE FIRING RANDOMLY AND THEN RAN INTO THE WOODS BECAUSE HOW DO YOU EVEN FIND A GUY LIKE THAT GOING FORWARD? >> THAT IS, THEY'RE WORKING THEORY. THEY SAY THAT THIS WAS NOT ROAD RAGE. THEY SAY THAT IT WAS SOMETHING THAT WAS CALCULATED AND PLANNED. >> BUT THE VICTIMS HAVE BEEN RANDOM. >> I MEAN, YOU'VE GOT FIVE DIFFERENT VICTIMS THAT HAVE BEEN SHOT ONCE FROM KENTUCKY, THE REST FROM WHILE THIS GUY HAS ABANDONED HIS WEAPON. >> IT APPEARS THAT HE'S ABANDONED HIS CAR AND NOW HE'S IN THIS REALLY RUGGED, REMOTE TERRAIN. AND WE DON'T REALLY KNOW THAT HE HAS MANY RESOURCES IS IT'S VERY, VERY, VERY REMOTE. >> THE TREES ALMOST BUMP INTO A TREE EVERY TWO OR THREE FEET. >> ALSO, THIS MAKES THE SEARCH HARD AS WELL. THEY SAID SATURDAY NIGHT THEY WENT UNTIL ABOUT THREE IN THE MORNING, BUT ULTIMATELY HAD TO CALL IT OFF BECAUSE, FRANKLY, IT WAS JUST SO DARK OUT THERE THAT IT WASN'T SAFE. SOME NERVE RACKING TO PEOPLE AROUND THIS AREA OVER THE WEEKEND. OBVIOUSLY, LIFE CHANGING TO SO MANY PEOPLE THAT WERE HIT IN, THIS MASS SHOOTING. >> ALL RIGHT, ALEX PRESHA THERE IN KENTUCKY RIGHT NOW. THANK YOU. THANKS, BRAD. NEXT UP ON "START HERE", THE GROUND RULES ARE SET, BUT ARE THE CANDIDATES READY? >> With so much at stake. So much on the line, more Americans turn here than any other news cast, ABC News World News Tonight, with David Muir. America's number one, most watched news cast across all of television, It's lunchtime in America. So what are we serving up? Well, how about everything you need to know your money breaking news pop culture with the biggest Stars music Trends and of course good food style coming up on J and a fairy you're gonna love it will see you then. Three what you need to know a third hour of GMA in the afternoon. So Jordan afternoon her everything you need to know. Hi, I'm Andy and I'm Sabrina and we're mom juggling tons of stuff every day like all you moms out there and you know what? We love really love Pop Culture. So listen now to our new podcast pop culture mom's wherever you get your podcast. Betrayal is one of the hardest types of trauma to overcome. This is her knight in shining armor. Everything felt right all the sudden. I found this hidden folder. I opened it. I don't think I can say I'm sorry shocking my stomach just dropped. He just really didn't think I had it in me Lisa. So I did betrayal a father's secret the all new season on Hulu. >> NOW YOU MIGHT HAVE HEARD. TOMORROW NIGHT IS DEBATE NIGHT. THIS WAS SCHEDULED AS THE SECOND DEBATE BETWEEN PRESIDENT BIDEN AND FORMER PRESIDENT TRUMP. WELL, ROUND ONE WAS SO IMPACTFUL THAT THE DEMOCRATS HAVE FIELDED AN ENTIRELY DIFFERENT CANDIDATE. THAT MEANS THAT THIS DEBATE, WHICH IS BEING HOSTED BY ABC NEWS IN PHILADELPHIA, IS QUITE POSSIBLY THE ONLY TIME WE SEE KAMALA HARRIS AND DONALD TRUMP ON A STAGE TOGETHER THIS YEAR. AND THEREFORE, IT'LL BE ONE OF THE BIGGEST INFLECTION POINTS IMAGINABLE FOR AMERICANS WHO HAVE YET TO MAKE UP THEIR MINDS. SO HOW IS EACH CANDIDATE PREPPING? LET'S HIT THE CAMPAIGN TRAIL WITH ABC'S WHITE HOUSE CORRESPONDENT MARYALICE PARKS. SHE'S ACTUALLY FOLLOWING THE HARRIS CAMPAIGN IN PITTSBURGH RIGHT NOW. >> MARYALICE SET THE STAGE FOR US. HOW IMPORTANT IS THIS DEBATE TO EACH OF THESE CAMPAIGNS? >> BRAD, I THINK THAT YOU'RE RIGHT THAT DEBATES ALWAYS HAVE THE POTENTIAL TO BE THESE HUGE INFLECTION POINTS. BUT THE STAKES DO FEEL EVEN HIGHER RIGHT NOW. >> I MEAN, I THINK THAT'S BECAUSE WHAT YOU SAID THIS WILL LIKELY BE THE ONLY TIME THAT HARRIS AND TRUMP DEBATE EACH OTHER WERE SO LATE IN THE SEASON. THEY'VE ONLY AGREED THIS ONE DEBATE. I 60 DAYS BEFORE THE ELECTION AND SO MUCH HAS HAPPENED. >> WE KNOW THIS WILL BE A TIGHT RACE UNTIL THE VERY END. AND SO LET'S NOT PAY TOO MUCH ATTENTION TO THE POLLS. >> I MEAN, THERE'S SO MANY QUESTIONS STILL FOR HARRIS ABOUT TAKING OVER THE DEMOCRATIC TICKET, ABOUT EVERYTHING THAT HAPPENED THIS SUMMER. AND, LOOK, THE STAKES ARE HIGH BECAUSE THE RACE IS SO CLOSE. I MEAN, THE BATTLEGROUND STATE POLLS SHOW REALLY A TOSS UP RACE AND. SO I THINK THAT BOTH CAMPAIGNS REALIZE THAT THIS COULD BE AN ABSOLUTE MAKE OR BREAK MOMENT FOR BOTH OF THEM. >> I THINK THAT UNLIKE THE NEW YORK TIMES, CNN COLLEGE POLL THIS WEEKEND, THAT I THINK IT'S LIKE 28% OF VOTERS SAID THEY STILL NEED TO LEARN MORE ABOUT KAMALA HARRIS. ONLY 9% SAID THE SAME ABOUT TRUMP. LIKE THEY KNOW HIM. DOES THAT AFFECT HOW EACH OF THESE CANDIDATES ARE PREPPING? >> YEAH, ABSOLUTELY. I MEAN, LOOK, THE HARRIS TEAM HAS SAID THAT FOR A WHILE, THAT THEY KNOW THEY STILL HAVE THIS MOMENT TO SORT OF INTRODUCE HER TO THE COUNTRY THAT THEY FEEL LIKE A LOT OF AMERICANS TO THE POINT OF THAT POLL, THAT A LOT OF AMERICANS ALREADY HAVE STRONG OPINIONS. ONE WAY OR THE OTHER ABOUT FORMER PRESIDENT TRUMP, BUT THAT SOME ARE STILL REALLY DECIDING ABOUT HER, REALLY CONSIDERING HER. YOU KNOW, WE'VE SEEN HER IN THE LAST FEW WEEKS REALLY MAKE A PLAY FOR FOR A MODERATE, YOU KNOW, THE SORT OF CHAMBER OF COMMERCE TYPE REPUBLICANS SWING VOTERS. SHE'S PUT OUT SOME ECONOMIC POLICIES, TAX POLICIES OBVIOUSLY ROLLING OUT A LOT OF REPUBLICAN ENDORSEMENTS, EVEN HER TEAM SAYS THAT THEY'RE TAKING NO CHANCES WHEN IT COMES TO JUST THE FUNDAMENTALS OF THE DEBATE, TOO. I MEAN, WE'VE BEEN STAKED OUT INSIDE THIS HOTEL IN PITTSBURGH WHERE SHE'S BEEN MOSTLY INSIDE HOLDING THESE STUDY SESSIONS WITH HER TEAM. I MEAN, THEY'VE BEEN DOING FOR MOCK DEBATES. WE KNOW THEY SET UP A WHOLE STAGE FULL TV LIGHTING. I MEAN, THE WORKS. THEY THEY HAVE SOMEONE PLAYING TRUMP THEN APPARENTLY IS TAKING ON SORT OF A REAL METHOD ACTOR APPROACH, WEARING A SUIT AND TIE AND EVERYTHING, TRYING TO FIGURE OUT IN GAME PLAN WHAT IT ACTUALLY COULD LOOK LIKE. I MEAN, LOOK, HE'S HE'S TOUGH TO GO AGAINST. THERE'S A WHOLE LOT OF POLITICIANS OUT THERE, DEMOCRATS AND REPUBLICANS, THAT HAVE HAD A REALLY HARD TIME DEBATING. YOU KNOW, HE HE DOESN'T OFTEN TALK ABOUT POLICY. I'M THINKING BACK TO HIS FIRST DEBATES WITH HILLARY CLINTON, WHERE YOU KNOW, JUST THE PHYSICALITY OF ALL THAT BECAME SUCH A BIG DEAL. THEN, YOU KNOW, SOME OF HIS FIRST DEBATES WITH PRESIDENT BIDEN, THE LAST CYCLE WHERE HE INTERRUPTED SO MUCH, THAT BECAME A BIG PART OF THE. YOU KNOW, HE OFTEN IS VERY LOOSE WITH FACTS AND HE OFTEN IS A HARD PART FOR OTHER CANDIDATES. FIGURE OUT, DO THEY FACT CHECK HIM AND THEN DO THEY JUST FALL INTO HIS OWN TRAPS? THEY WANT TO TALK ABOUT THEIR OWN STUFF. SO, YEAH, WELL, YOU KNOW, THIS IS HER FIRST PRESIDENTIAL DEBATE. HER TEAM KNOWS THAT THIS IS HIS SEVEN. AND SO THEY LIKE I SAID, THEY'RE NOT TAKING ANY CHANCES. THEY'VE BEEN REALLY SETTING AND PREPPING THIS WEEKEND. >> IS IT THE SAME WITH FORMER PRESIDENT TRUMP THEN? I GUESS I MEAN, HIS TEAM, YOU KNOW, AND AND THE FORMER PRESIDENT HIMSELF, THEY LIKE TO SAY, OH, HE DOESN'T NEED PRACTICE. HE'S LIKE BORN READY. YOU KNOW, THAT'S WHAT HE'S SORT OF HIS POSTURE. I'VE DONE THIS. HE SORT OF MAKES FUN OF THE IDEA OF STUDYING THAT. I'D RATHER RUN AGAINST HER. I THINK SHE'S EASIER TO BEAT. >> I REALLY DO. I BELIEVE THAT. BUT LOOK, HIS TEAM SAYS THAT WHILE THEY WELL, THEY'RE NOT, YOU KNOW, DOING THESE BIG FORMAL MOCK DEBATES, THEY ARE, OF COURSE, GETTING READY. HE HAS BEEN HAVING POLICY MEETINGS, POLICY DISCUSSIONS. WE KNOW THAT SOME OF HIS ADVISERS FOR THIS HAVE BEEN REPRESENTATIVE MATT GATES, ALSO FORMER REPRESENTATIVE TULSI GABBARD. YOU KNOW, WHEN SHE WAS RUNNING FOR PRESIDENT AS A DEMOCRAT, SHE WAS ON THE DEBATE STAGE AGAINST KAMALA HARRIS. AND SHE OBVIOUSLY BRINGS AN INTERESTING PERSPECTIVE IN THAT WAY. >> YOU KNOW, I'M SURE THAT HE'S BEEN LOOKING AT HER PAST DEBATES. I MEAN, THAT'S SOME OF WHAT HIS TEAM HAS BEEN SAYING. AT LEAST THEY'VE BEEN LOOKING AT SOME OF HARRIS' PAST DEBATES AND NO DOUBT THEY ARE SEEING SORT OF STUDYING TRUMP'S PAST DEBATES AS WELL. HE AS FAR AS THE FORMAT, LIKE YOU SAID, KAMALA HARRIS IS UP THERE WITH THE LIGHTS ON THE STAGE AND LIKE THERE ARE PODIUMS. I THINK THEY'VE BEEN GIVEN POSITIONS AT THIS POINT. >> WONDER IF SHE PRACTICES ON THE SAME SIDE. ARE THERE RULES? I KNOW RULES WERE SORT OF FINALIZED RECENTLY. ARE THERE ANY RULES THAT WOULD IMPACT ANYTHING HERE? YEAH, ABSOLUTELY. I MEAN, FIRST, NO LIVE AUDIENCE. THAT IS A BIG DEAL, RIGHT? YOU KNOW, TRUMP FEEDS OFF AN AUDIENCE HERE. HE LIKES THE ENERGY OF A CROWD . >> SO I THINK THAT THAT'S A PART OF THIS THAT WILL MAKE A DIFFERENCE. BUT ALSO, YOU KNOW, THE FACT THAT THE MICROPHONES ARE ONLY GOING TO BE ON WHEN IT'S THE CANDIDATE'S TURN TO SPEAK, THEY'RE GOING TO BE MUTED IN BETWEEN. I'M WONDERING IF THAT ACTUALLY COULD BE IN IN TRUMP'S FAVOR. >> ALSO, I'M THINKING ABOUT WHEN HARRIS DEBATED MIKE PENCE IN THE VICE PRESIDENTIAL DEBATE. >> JOE BIDEN HAS BEEN VERY CLEAR HE WILL NOT RAISE TAXES ON ANYBODY WHO MAKES LESS THAN $400,000 A YEAR. REPEAL THE TRUMP TAX CUTS. MR. VICE PRESIDENT, I'M SPEAKING WELL AND SPEAKING. >> SHE REALLY. OH, THAT ROOM OH, THAT MOMENT MADE HIM LOOK LIKE SOMEONE THAT WAS INTERRUPTING A WOMAN, RIGHT? YOU KNOW, I IMAGINE THAT HER TEAM PROBABLY WAS HOPING FOR SOME KIND OF SIMILAR INTERACTION WITH TRUMP. IT'S EASY FOR TRUMP TO LOOK LIKE IT'S KIND OF FALL INTO BEING THE ONE THAT'S TRYING TO TALK OVER HIS OPPONENT. BUT IF THE MICROPHONES ARE MUTED, WHAT DOES THAT MEAN? HOW DOES THAT PLAY? >> ARE THERE THINGS THAT HAPPEN IN THE ROOM? THAT'S A READ ON THE MICROPHONES. I MEAN, IT'S FASCINATING. SO, YES, I THINK THE RULES COULD IN SOME ACTUALLY MAKE A DIFFERENCE ON TUESDAY NIGHT. YEAH, IT REALLY INTERESTING BECAUSE THESE WERE THE RULES THAT WERE ORIGINALLY AGREED TO BY PRESIDENT BIDEN AND FORMER PRESIDENT TRUMP. WELL, NOW THERE'S A WHOLE DIFFERENT CANDIDATE DEALING WITH THEM. OKAY. MARYALICE PARKS TRACKING, THE HARRIS CAMPAIGN RIGHT NOW IN PITTSBURGH. >> WE'LL SEE YOU LATER. THANKS, BRAD. OKAY, ONE MORE QUICK BREAK. >> WHEN WE COME BACK. DON'T ADOPT THAT TONE WITH ME It's lunchtime in America. So what are we serving up? Well, how about everything you need to know your money breaking news pop culture with the biggest Stars music Trends and of course good food style coming up on J and a fairy you're gonna love it will see you then. Three what you need to know a third hour of GMA in the afternoon. So Jordan afternoon her everything you need to know. With so much at stake. So much on the line, more Americans turn here than any other news cast, ABC News World News Tonight, with David Muir. America's number one, most watched news cast across all of television, It's the most consequential moment of this campaign. Now, Kamala Harris, Donald Trump face-to-face. The ABC News presidential debate moderated by David, Muir and Lindsey Davis tomorrow night live on EBC and streaming on Hulu and Disney Plus ABC News live honored with eight Emmy nominations more than any other streaming news network and ABC News live Prime with Lindsey Davis the first and only streaming show nominated for best outstanding live news program. Thank you for making ABC News live America's number one streaming news. Traveling with the president to the u.s. Mexico border. I'm Mary Bruce wherever the story is will take you there. You're streaming ABC News live. WE'LL TAKE YOU THERE. YOU'RE STREAMING ABC NEWS LIVE . >> AND ONE LAST THING. >> ANYONE WHO'S EVER ADOPTED A CHILD KNOWS IT CAN BE EIGHT YEARS LONG PROCESS FILLED WITH CONFUSION AND BUREAUCRACY SEE. >> WELL, THIS WEEKEND, HUNDREDS OF PLANNED ADOPTIONS WERE THROWN INTO CHAOS AFTER CHINA ANNOUNCED IT'S ENDING THE PRACTICE OF FOREIGNERS ADOPTING CHILDREN. >> TOMORROW, THE CURRENT FOREIGN MINISTRY SPOKESPERSON, MAO NING, SAID LATE LAST WEEK THAT WHILE CHINA APPRECIATES THE LOVE AND KINDNESS THAT FOREIGN PARENTS AND GOVERNMENTS HAVE SHOWN IN THE PAST, CHINA WILL NO LONGER SEND ITS CHILDREN ABROAD FOR ADOPTION. >> AND IN THE WORLD OF ADOPTIONS, THIS IS A REALLY BIG DEAL. FROM THE EARLY AUGHTS THROUGH 2016, THE U.S. ALONE WAS RESPONSIBLE FOR ADOPTING UP TO 3000 CHINESE CHILDREN PER YEAR. MY LITTLE COUSIN, ONE OF THEM, WHO I REFUSE TO BELIEVE IS NOT GENETICALLY RELATED TO ME BECAUSE SHE'S GOT THE EXACT SAME PERSONALITY, THE EXACT SAME LOUD VOICE. >> AT ANY RATE THE ADOPTION RATE SLOWED DURING CHINA'S RESTRICTIVE COVID LOCKDOWNS, AND NOW THE ONLY FOREIGNERS ALLOWED TO ADOPT IN CHINA WILL BE STEPPARENTS AND FAMILY MEMBERS WITH CHINESE ROOTS. >> THIS ACTUALLY SPEAKS TO SOME TRENDS IN EACH COUNTRY. FOR DECADES, AMID FEARS OF OVERPOPULATION AND FOOD SHORTAGES, CHINA ENFORCED ITS ONE CHILD POLICY, WHICH RESULTED IN MILLIONS OF CHILDREN, MOSTLY GIRLS, BEING SENT TO ORPHANAGES. >> ONE CHILD PER FAMILY, SHE SAYS, OR ELSE. I SAW SOME WOMEN THAT WERE NINE MONTHS PREGNANT PUT ON THE OPERATING TABLE AND FORCED TO HAVE ABORTION. >> IN RECENT YEARS, THOUGH, THE GOVERNMENT EASED THESE RESTRICTIONS AND EVENTUALLY DID AWAY WITH THEM ALTOGETHER, RESULTING IN LESS NEED FOR FOREIGN ADOPTERS. BUT YOU CAN ALSO SENSE LITTLE BIT OF NATIONAL PRIDE HERE IN A COUNTRY THAT IS SO OFTEN FELT BELITTLED BY FOREIGNERS. MANY HAVE EXPRESSED RESENTMENT AT THESE FAMILIES SWOOPING TO TAKE CHILDREN AWAY TO WHAT THEY THINK IS A BETTER LIFE. IN RECENT YEARS, THE CHINESE GOVERNMENT HAS MADE A POINT OF PRIORITIZING DOMESTIC ADOPTIONS. IT WAS ACTUALLY FIVE YEARS AGO THIS MONTH THAT WE WERE MATCHED WITH A LITTLE GIRL NAMED THAT WE CALLED PENELOPE. >> MEANWHILE, IN THE U.S., THIS ANNOUNCEMENT HAS DERAILED ADOPTION PROCESSES THAT WERE ALREADY UNDERWAY. >> WE KNOW SHE'S FOR FIVE YEARS HAS CALLED ME MOM FOR FIVE YEARS. >> SHE'S CALLED MY HUSBAND. HER FATHER. HUNDREDS OF WOULD BE PARENTS HAD ALREADY BEEN PAIRED WITH THEIR ADOPTIVE KIDS. AND AS THE PANDEMIC STRETCHED ON, THEY WERE TOLD TO WAIT ONE YEAR AND TWO YEARS. WELL, YEARS LATER, THIS DOOR IS BEING SLAMMED SHUT AND THEY'RE ALL BEING TOLD TO START THEIR JOURNEY ELSEWHERE. >> SHE CARRIES A BLANKET WITH HER EVERYWHERE THAT, HAS A PICTURE OF OUR FAMILY ON IT. >> SO IN HER, WE ARE HER FAMILY AND SHE'S BEEN WAITING FOR US. ALSO LAYS BARE QUESTIONS THAT WERE ALREADY FILLED WITH ETHICAL LANDMINES FOR ADOPTIVE FAMILIES. ADOPTING DOMESTICALLY IN THE U.S. IS NOTORIOUSLY DIFFICULT, BUT MANY OF THE REASONS ARE PRETTY LEGITIMATE ONES, LIKE COMING TO TERMS WITH HOW MUCH CONTACT BIRTH PARENTS SHOULD HAVE. >> IF IT'S SIMPLER IN A FOREIGN COUNTRY, DOES THAT COME AT THE EXPENSE OF SOME OF THOSE FOREIGN FAMILIES, OR ARE YOU JUST HELPING A CHILD FORGE THE BEST LIFE POSSIBLE? MAYBE IT'S ALL A SIMPLE SUPPLY AND DEMAND ISSUE, BUT SUPPLY AND DEMAND ITSELF IS A CREEPY PHRASE WHEN YOU'RE DISCUSSING CHILDREN'S LIVES. >> IN ANY CASE, THIS WEEK, LOTS OF PROSPECTIVE AMERICAN FAMILIES WILL HAVE TO START FROM SCRATCH AS CHINA PROMISES TO KEEP WHAT'S THEIRS . I FEEL LIKE WE DO MANY STORIES ABOUT FERTILITY ON THE SHOW. SHOUT OUT TO ALL THE ADOPTIVE FAMILIES AND FAMILIES OUT THERE. HEY, BIG EXCITING NEWS, BY THE WAY, BECAUSE ABC NEWS IS HOSTING THE DEBATE TOMORROW NIGHT AT 9 P.M. EASTERN, BY THE WAY, AN 8 P.M. SPECIAL ON ABC AND ABC NEWS LIVE SHOULD BE REALLY GOOD. >> WE ARE ABLE TO POST THE RAW AUDIO OF THE DEBATE RIGHT HERE ON THE START HERE FEED TUESDAY NIGHT RIGHT AFTER EVERYTHING. SO IF YOU OR YOUR FRIEND IS LIKE I'M NOT GOING TO WATCH TV THAT NIGHT, I'M WORKING. >> YOU CAN TELL YOUR FRIEND. >> YOU CAN LISTEN TO IT ON YOUR COMMUTE.

THE STATE'S UNDER THE BIGGEST THREAT. >> AND WHEN THE STORM COULD MAKE LANDFALL, THE FIRST VICE PRESIDENT, HARRIS AND FORMER PRESIDENT TRUMP ARE SET TO FACE OFF ON THE DEBATE STAGE FOR THE FIRST TIME TOMORROW NIGHT. HARRIS SAYS SHE'S READY AFTER HUNKERING DOWN FOR INTENSE DEBATE PREP. >> MEANWHILE, TRUMP IS HOLDING INFORMAL POLICY SESSIONS WITH A SMALL TEAM OF ADVISERS WHO'VE BEEN FIRING QUESTIONS AT HIM ON HIS LEGAL TROUBLES, HIS STANCE ON ABORTION AND MORE. WE HAVE FULL TEAM COVERAGE, STARTING WITH OUR SENIOR CONGRESSIONAL CORRESPONDENT, RACHEL SCOTT. >> WITH THE FIRST PRESIDENTIAL DEBATE NOW JUST OVER 24 HOURS AWAY, DONALD TRUMP AND KAMALA HARRIS ARE PREPARING TO COME FACE TO FACE FOR THE FIRST TIME. >> ARE YOU READY? VICE PRESIDENT READY. >> THE VICE PRESIDENT OFF THE CAMPAIGN TRAIL, SPENDING THE LAST FOUR DAYS, HUNKERED DOWN IN PITTSBURGH DOING HIGHLY CHOREOGRAPHED, MARKED. THE PRESIDENT ISN'T DOING ANY OF THAT. INSTEAD HOLDING INFORMAL SESSIONS WITH ADVISERS. ON FRIDAY, HE CAME BEFORE THE CAMERAS FOR AN EVENT BILLED AS A NEWS CONFERENCE. BUT HE DIDN'T TAKE A SINGLE QUESTION. AFTER APPEARING IN COURT FOR ORAL ARGUMENTS IN HIS APPEAL OF THE E. JEAN CARROLL ABUSE CASE, TRUMP WASN'T REQUIRED TO SHOW UP FOR THE HEARING, BUT HE CHOSE TO GO. LATER, COMPLAINING TO REPORTERS FOR NEARLY AN HOUR, ALL THE WOMEN WHO HAVE ACCUSED HIM OF MISCONDUCT OVER THE YEARS WHICH HE DENIES, AND EVEN REPEATING CLAIMS ABOUT CAROL THAT A JURY ALREADY CONSIDERED DEFAMATORY. TRUMP THEN TRAVELING TO BATTLEGROUND WISCONSIN, A RALLY THIS WEEKEND. >> WE ARE GOING TO WIN WISCONSIN. WE'RE GOING TO DEFEAT COMRADE KAMALA HARRIS. >> WHILE TRUMP'S ADVISERS AND ALLIES HAVE PUSHED HIM TO STAY FOCUSED ON THE ISSUES HE, STILL SPENT MUCH OF HIS TIME ON STAGE RANTING ABOUT HIS LEGAL BATTLES, THE MINUTE DEBATE WILL INCLUDE TWO BREAKS, NO OPENING STATEMENTS, NO AUDIENCE IN THE ROOM, NO PRE-WRITTEN NOTES OR HUDDLING WITH STAFF DURING COMMERCIAL BREAKS. MICROPHONES WILL BE MUTED WHEN IT'S NOT THE CANDIDATE'S TURN TO SPEAK. >> AND TRUMP, WHO WON THE COIN TOSS, WILL HAVE THE FINAL WORD . >> IS ANYBODY GOING TO BE WATCHING? WITH THE RACE NECK AND NECK, TRUMP IS VOWING RETRIBUTION IF HE WINS A SECOND TERM AND HIS MOST DIRECT THREAT AGAINST THOSE WHO ADMINISTER ELECTIONS . THE FORMER PRESIDENT INSISTING HE WOULD JAIL LAWYERS, POLITICAL OPERATIVES, DONORS, VOTERS AND CORRUPTLECTION OFFICIALS, STATING THOSE INVOLVED IN UNSCRUPULOUS BEHAVIOR WILL BE SOUGHT OUT, CAUGHT AND PROSECUTED AT LEVELS. UNFORTUNATELY SEEN BEFORE IN OUR COUNTRY. THE REALITY. ILLEGAL VOTING EXTREMELY RARE. AND JUST DAYS AGO ON A PODCAST, TRUMP IN RARE MOMENT EVEN ACKNOWLEDGED HE LOST THE LAST ELECTION. >> I WAS TOLD IF I GOT 63 MILLION, WHICH IS WHAT I GOT THE FIRST TIME, YOU YOU, YOU WOULD WIN. YOU CAN'T NOT WIN. AND I GOT MILLIONS OF MORE VOTES AND LOST BY A WHISKER. >> IN RESPONSE, DEMOCRATIC ELECTION LAWYER ELIAS, WHO WORKS WITH THE HARRIS CAMPAIGN, WRITING, WE WON'T LET DONALD TRUMP INTIMIDATE US. WE WON'T LET HIM SUPPRESS THE VOTE. WE WON'T LET HIM SUBVERT THE ELECTION. THAT FEAR ABOUT DEMOCRACY SHARED BY A HANDFUL REPUBLICANS, INCLUDING FORMER CONGRESSWOMAN LIZ CHENEY AND HER FATHER, FORMER VICE PRESIDENT CHENEY, A ONCE UNTHINKABLE MOVE THE CONSERVATIVE FORMER VICE PRESIDENT NOW ENDORSING HARRIS, SAYING TRUMP CAN NEVER BE TRUSTED WITH POWER AGAIN. YOU HAVE MANY REPUBLICANS OUT THERE WHO ARE SAYING, WELL, YOU KNOW, WE'RE NOT GOING TO VOTE HIM, BUT WE WILL WE WILL WRITE SOMEONE ELSE IN. AND I THINK THIS TIME AROUND, THAT'S NOT ENOUGH, THAT IT'S IMPORTANT. >> ACTUALLY CAST A VOTE FOR VICE PRESIDENT HARRIS. >> AND DONALD TRUMP IS HERE AT MAR A LAGO. HE LEAVES TOMORROW FOR PENNSYLVANIA FOR THAT CRITICAL DEBATE. AND AS A FORMER PRESIDENT'S ADVISERS SAYS, HE DOES NOT NEED ANY TRADITIONAL DEBATE PREP. HE IS ACTUALLY PREPARING MORE THAN HE'S LETTING ON. THOSE INFORMAL POLICY SESSIONS HAVE INCLUDED FORMER CONGRESSWOMAN TULSI GABBARD, WHO CHALLENGED HARRIS ON THE DEBATE STAGE BACK IN 2019, ALSO INVOLVED IN HIS DEBATE PREPARATION IS CONGRESSMAN MATT GAETZ, WE ARE TOLD, HAS BEEN FIRING QUESTIONS AT HIM ON SOME THE TOUGHER TOPICS, INCLUDING HIS LEGAL ISSUES AND HIS STANCE ON ABORTION. DIANE SENIOR CONGRESSIONAL CORRESPONDENT RACHEL SCOTT, THANK YOU. LET'S BRING IN CHIEF WHITE HOUSE CORRESPONDENT MARY BRUCE IN PITTSBURGH NOW FOR MORE ON VICE PRESIDENT HARRIS IS PREPARING. >> MARY HARRIS IS DOING THESE MOCK DEBATES WITH A STAGE WITH FULL TV LIGHTING, THE WHOLE NINE YARDS. SO WHAT IS SHE FOCUSING ON DURING THESE REHEARSALS? >> WELL, SHE'S DOING THESE REHEARSALS, HUNKERED DOWN HERE ,THIS PITTSBURGH HOTEL, AND SHE IS TAKING HER PREPARATIONS VERY SERIOUSLY . YOU KNOW, THEY ARE DOING THESE FULL MOCK DEBATES. THEY HAVE THAT STAGE. THEY HAVE THE TV LIGHTING UP. SHE'S ALSO LEANING INTO THE ADVICE, A LOT OF ADVISERS WHO HELPED HILLARY CLINTON PREPARE BACK IN 2016, INCLUDING ONE OF THOSE ADVISERS WHO IS NOW PLAYING THE ROLE OF, FORMER PRESIDENT DONALD TRUMP, IN THESE REHEARSALS. AND LOOK, HARRIS CERTAINLY AN EXPERIENCED DEBATER, BUT HER CAMPAIGN IS QUICK TO NOTE THAT THIS IS NEW TERRITORY FOR HER. THIS IS GOING TO BE TRUMP'S SEVENTH PRESIDENTIAL DEBATE. BUT HARRIS' FIRST AND ACTUALLY THE FIRST TIME THAT THE TWO OF THEM HAVE EVER COME FACE TO FACE, THEY'VE NEVER MET BEFORE, DIANE. SO THIS IS REALLY, YOU KNOW, UNCHARTED TERRITORY FOR EVERYONE HERE. AND THE CHALLENGE FOR KAMALA HARRIS AND HER GOAL HERE IS REALLY TO YOU OUTLINE HER PROPOSALS AND HER AGENDA TO INTRODUCE HERSELF TO VOTERS BEFORE DONALD TRUMP HAS A CHANCE TO DO IT HIMSELF, BUT THEN TO PIVOT, TO GO ON THE ATTACK, TO HIGHLIGHT TRUMP'S RECORD, TO COUNTER WITH WHAT THE CAMPAIGN DESCRIBING AS SOME OF THAT TRUMP AMNESIA THAT THEY FEAR IS OUT THERE AMONG SOME VOTERS. AND YES, DIANE, SHE ALSO WANTS TO GET UNDER DONALD TRUMP'S SKIN. THE CHALLENGE FOR HARRIS IS GOING TO BE HOW TO BEAT TRUMP WITHOUT GETTING BAITED HERSELF. NOW, THE HARRIS CAMPAIGN ALSO JUST ADDED A PAGE, ITS WEBSITE, OUTLINING HER POSITION ON SEVERAL ISSUES, INCLUDING THE ECONOMY, HEALTH CARE, FOREIGN POLICY. WHAT STANDS OUT TO YOU THERE? >> HOW DO YOU EXPECT HER TO ADDRESS THOSE ISSUES ON STAGE TOMORROW NIGHT? I THINK THE CAMPAIGN IS WELL AWARE THAT CERTAINLY POLLING SHOWN THAT VOTERS WANT TO KNOW MORE ABOUT WHAT SHE WOULD DO AS PRESIDENT. THEY ALSO WANT TO KNOW HOW SHE WOULD DISTINGUISH HERSELF, HOW A HOW A HARRIS CAMPAIGN AND A HARRIS ADMINISTRATION WOULD LOOK DIFFERENT FROM WHAT THEY HAVE SEEN UNDER PRESIDENT BIDEN. HARRIS HAS BEEN WALKING THIS FINE LINE. SHE OBVIOUSLY IS VERY PROUD OF THE WORK THAT SHE HAS DONE IN THIS ADMINISTRATION. SHE IS VERY MUCH RUNNING ON THAT RECORD, BUT ALSO, YOU KNOW, IN CERTAIN AREAS, TRYING TO PUT A LITTLE DISTANCE OR A BIT MORE MEAT ON THE BONES . NOW, WE SHOULD SAY ALSO, OF COURSE, YOU KNOW, DONALD TRUMP HAS NOT EXACTLY PUT A LOT OF MEAT ON THE BONES OF HIS PROPOSALS EITHER. AND WHAT HARRIS PUT OUT LAST NIGHT, WHILE IT IS STILL LIGHT ,A LOT OF SPECIFICS. AND I DO THINK VOTERS WOULDN'T BE SURPRISED IF THEY WANTED TO HEAR MORE. THAT DOES ACTUALLY INCLUDE MORE DETAIL THAN WHAT PRESIDENT BIDEN HAD UP ON HIS WEBSITE. YOU KNOW, RIGHT AT THE POINT WHEN HE DROPPED OUT OF THE RACE. SO I THINK TOMORROW. SHE IS DEFINITELY GOING TO TRY TO ARTICULATE MORE AND, BRING MORE INTO FOCUS, YOU KNOW, HER VISION FOR THE NEXT FOUR YEARS. >> AND MEANWHILE, MARY, HOUSE REPUBLICANS JUST RELEASED A SWEEPING REPORT ON THE U.S. WITHDRAWAL FROM AFGHANISTAN. >> IT BLAMES THE WHITE HOUSE AND THE STATE DEPARTMENT FOR BEING SLOW TO LISTEN TO GENERALS WHO WARNED THAT THE SECURITY SITUATION WOULD DETERIORATE QUICKLY. BUT THE REPORT DOESN'T SAY THAT VICE PRESIDENT HARRIS PLAYED A ROLE IN THE PLANNING OR EXECUTION OF THAT EVACUATION. >> SO HOW VULNERABLE IS ON THAT ISSUE? >> WELL, LOOK, IT'S CERTAINLY AN ISSUE WHERE WE HAVE SEEN THAT DONALD TRUMP IS EAGER TO HIGHLIGHT. WE HAVE SEEN HIM AND HIS CAMPAIGN. THEY'VE PUT OUT VIDEOS, YOU KNOW, DONALD TRUMP MAKING THAT THAT VISIT TO ARLINGTON NATIONAL IN PART TO HIGHLIGHT WHAT WAS A VERY CHAOTIC WITHDRAWAL FROM AFGHANISTAN AND TO TRY AND TIE KAMALA HARRIS TO THAT. NOW, HARRIS HAS BOASTED, ACTUALLY, THAT SHE WAS THE LAST PERSON IN THE ROOM WITH PRESIDENT BIDEN WHEN HE MADE THAT FINAL DECISION, CEMENTING HIS WITHDRAWAL. BUT THIS REPORT FINDS THAT SHE HAD NO SORT OF DIRECT INVOLVEMENT, NOT TRYING TO BLAME HER, YOU KNOW, IN ANY KIND OF WAY. BUT A LOT THIS COMES DOWN TO PERCEPTION AND WHAT VOTERS THINK ABOUT THIS. AND I THINK THIS IS AN AREA WHERE CERTAINLY THE HARRIS CAMPAIGN IS BRACED AND EXPECTING FOR DONALD TRUMP CONTINUE TO TRY AND HIT HER. >> NOW, FORMER REPUBLICAN CANDIDATE NIKKI HALEY NOW SAYS SHE WOULD JOIN TRUMP ON STAGE AT A RALLY. HOW SIGNIFICANT IS THAT, GIVEN HOW BITTER THIS RIVALRY ONCE WAS? >> WELL, YES, THE RIVALRY WAS ONCE BITTER, BUT OF COURSE, NIKKI HALEY HAS COME OUT AND FULLY ENDORSED PRESIDENT TRUMP. FORMER PRESIDENT TRUMP. AND IT REALLY WHAT IT DOES IS HIGHLIGHT HOW SO MANY PEOPLE IN BOTH CAMPAIGNS ARE REALLY FOCUSED ON GETTING THOSE NIKKI HALEY VOTERS. AND WE HAVE SEEN THE HARRIS CAMPAIGN STILL OPTIMISTIC THAT THOSE REPUBLICAN WHO MAY NOT HAVE BEEN SATISFIED WITH DONALD TRUMP AS AN OPTION, THEY VOTED FOR NIKKI HALEY. WELL, THIS CAMPAIGN, THE HARRIS CAMPAIGN, STILL THINKS THAT A LOT OF THOSE VOTERS MAY BE UP FOR. THEY HAVE MADE OVERTURES TO THEM. THEY ARE STILL TRYING TO TARGET VERY THOSE REPUBLICANS WHO MIGHT NOT BE SATISFIED WITH TRUMP AND MIGHT BE WILLING TO COME OVER TO KAMALA HARRIS AND CHIEF WHITE HOUSE CORRESPONDENT MARY BRUCE IN PITTSBURGH, THANK YOU. >> MEANWHILE, A NEW POLL SHOWS THE RACE IS NECK AND NECK HEADING INTO TOMORROW NIGHT'S DEBATE. THE NEW YORK TIMES SIENA COLLEGE POLL ALSO SHOWS VOTERS WANT TO LEARN MORE ABOUT VICE PRESIDENT BEFORE MAKING UP THEIR MINDS. ABC NEWS WASHINGTON BUREAU CHIEF AND POLITICAL DIRECTOR RICK KLEIN HAS THE DETAILS. >> DIANA, RACE FOR PRESIDENT IN SOME WAYS HAS EVEN GOTTEN CLOSER IN RECENT DAYS. THE 538 POLLING AVERAGE NOW HAS HARRIS UP BY LESS THAN THREE PERCENTAGE POINTS AGAINST DONALD TRUMP. SO SOME OF THE MOMENTUM THAT SHE HAD IN THE LAST COUPLE OF WEEKS APPEARS TO HAVE STALLED. AND IN THE BATTLEGROUND STATES, WE ALSO SEE A VERY TIGHT RACE RIGHT NOW. HARRIS LEADING IN FIVE OF THE SEVEN BIG BATTLEGROUNDS. BUT IT IS SO TIGHT IN ALL OF INCLUDING IN PENNSYLVANIA, WHERE THE DEBATE IS GOING TO BE TOMORROW NIGHT. HARRIS LEADING BY LESS THAN A PERCENTAGE POINT, THAT'S ESSENTIALLY A TOSS UP IN THE BIGGEST AND PROBABLY THE MOST IMPORTANT OF THE BATTLEGROUND STATES. ANOTHER THING THAT HIGHLIGHTS A CHALLENGE FOR KAMALA HARRIS IN THE "NEW YORK TIMES" SIENA POLL OUT THIS WEEK, TRUMP ACTUALLY LED BY POINT OVERALL AND A THIRD OF VOTERS, ALMOST 28%. SO THEY NEED LEARN MORE ABOUT KAMALA HARRIS AND HER POSITIONS. THAT COMPARES TO LESS THAN ONE IN TEN VOTERS WHO SAY THE SAME ABOUT DONALD TRUMP. JUST 9%. AND IN TERMS OF PERCEPTIONS OF WHAT SHE HAS TO DO, FIND LITTLE BIT. ALMOST HALF OF VOTERS IN THIS SURVEY SAID THAT THEY CONSIDER HARRIS TO BE TOO LIBERAL IN HER POSITIONS. LESS THAN A THIRD OF VOTERS SAY THAT DONALD TRUMP IS TOO CONSERVATIVE. SO IT ALL LINES IN AN ELECTION WHERE VOTERS ALSO WANT TO SEE SOME CHANGES FROM THE BIDEN ADMINISTRATION. HARRIS HAS TO DEFINE HERSELF TO FIND HERSELF AS A MODERATE AND DEFINE HERSELF AS MORE DISTINCT FROM JOE BIDEN THAN A LOT OF VOTERS CURRENTLY . >> DIANE, ABC NEWS WASHINGTON BUREAU CHIEF RICK KLEIN. THANK. AND ABC NEWS CONTRIBUTOR CRISTINA SINCE JUNE RAMIREZ JOINS ME NOW ALONG WITH REPUBLICAN STRATEGIST TRICIA MCLAUGHLIN FOR MORE CRISTINA LILLY 30% OF PEOPLE POLLED SAY THEY WANT TO KNOW MORE ABOUT HARRIS. >> WHAT DO YOU EXPECT HER TO DO TOMORROW TO TRY TO SHOW VOTERS HER POLICIES AND WHO SHE IS AS A CANDIDATE? >> WELL, THIS IS A GREAT OPPORTUNITY, VICE PRESIDENT HARRIS, AND THE FACT THAT A THIRD SAY THEY DON'T KNOW MORE WANT TO LEARN MORE AND DONALD TRUMP HAVE MUCH ROOM. HE DOES. THE PEOPLE ALREADY KNOW ENOUGH AND HE'S NOT WINNING IN FIVE OF THE KEY STATES, EVEN THOUGH IT'S A SLIM MARGIN. SO SHE'S GOT A LOT OF GROUND SHE CAN MAKE UP. THIS IS A GREAT OPPORTUNITY FOR HER TO ARTICULATE HER VISION, HOW SHE'S DISTINCT AND DIFFERENT FROM DONALD TRUMP AND LOT OF PEOPLE ARE VERY SICK AND TIRED OF THE VITRIOL AND DIVISION THAT HAS COME FROM. DONALD TRUMP, AS HE'S ASCENDED TO POWER AND TAKEN OVER THE ENTIRE REPUBLICAN PARTY. AND THEN THE LAST THING I'LL SAY, SHE'S AN EXCELLENT DEBATER . SHE IS GOING TO COME OUT AHEAD IN THIS DEBATE COMPARED TO DONALD TRUMP. IF WE LOOK AT THE DEBATE, DONALD TRUMP DID BETTER. BUT THAT WAS BECAUSE JOE BIDEN DID SO POORLY. THERE WERE MANY QUESTIONS HE DIDN'T ANSWER. SHE'S GOING TO GET UNDER HIS SKIN. AND SHE IS GREAT AT MAINTAINING HER COOL, CALM, COLLECTED SELF. AND I THINK SEE THAT IN THIS DEBATE. >> JOSHUA 538 BATTLEGROUND STATES POLLING SHOWS HARRIS LEADING TRUMP IN CRITICAL STATES LIKE PENNSYLVANIA AND GEORGIA. WHAT DO YOU THINK TRUMP NEEDS TO DO TO WIN OVER VOTERS THERE ? >> WELL, I THINK CHRISTINE IS ABSOLUTELY RIGHT THAT KAMALA HARRIS IS TO TRY TO PROSECUTE DONALD TRUMP, THE MAN VERSUS DONALD NEEDS TO PROSECUTE KAMALA HARRIS. HIS RECORD, WHICH IS BERNIE SANDERS THIS WEEKEND ON MEET THE PRESS, IS THAT SHE IS AN INCREDIBLY PROGRESSIVE RECORD AND THAT SHE'S SAYING WHAT SHE NEEDS TO WIN. I MEAN SHE WAS THE CO-SPONSOR OF THE GREEN NEW DEAL, ONE OF THOSE BATTLEGROUND YOU TALKED ABOUT. A MAJOR ISSUE IN PENNSYLVANIA IS FRACKING AND NOT ONLY DID SHE CO-SPONSOR THE GREEN NEW DEAL, BUT SHE ALSO PLEDGED TO END THE FILIBUSTER IN ORDER FOR THAT TO GET THROUGH. SO AS THIS DEBATE GOES ON, DONALD TRUMP NEEDS TO NOT TAKE THE BAIT. >> HE NEEDS TO AVOID ANY PERSONAL ATTACKS, TRANSCEND, AND HE NEEDS TO GO TO THOSE POLICIES LIKE IMMIGRATION, THE ECONOMY. REMEMBER, SHE WAS TIE BREAKING VOTE ON THE INFLATION REDUCTION ACT, WHICH JUST TOOK 40 TRILLIONS MORE INTO OUR ECONOMY. THAT'S WHAT HE NEEDS TO FOCUS ON, BECAUSE WHEN VOTERS HAVE THE INFORMATION, THEY WILL GO WITH TRUMP. >> I AM CONFIDENT OF THAT. AND CHRISTINA HARRIS WILL LIKELY FACE ABOUT HER CHANGING STANCES ON A VARIETY OF ISSUES FROM POLICING ENERGY POLICY. HOW CAN SHE BLUNT THE CRITICISM FROM THOSE CALLING HER A FLIP FLOPPER? >> LOOK, I THINK HER RECORD SPEAKS FOR ITSELF. SHE IS A PERSON THAT STAKES OUT POLICY POSITIONS. AND THEN, YOU KNOW, SHE SEES THE AS A NEGOTIATING PROCESS. RIGHT. AND SO SHE HAS TRIED ALWAYS CONSISTENTLY TO MOVE FORWARD POLICIES THAT ARE ALSO TRYING TO CALL HER CONRAD HARRIS. THAT IS SO ABSURD TO TRY AND SAY THAT KAMALA HARRIS IS A COMMUNIST. I THINK IT FALLS AS AN ABSOLUTE FOR MOST FOLKS. AND I THINK SHE EXPLAINED HER POSITION WELL DURING LAST CNN DEBATE THAT HER VALUES HAVE NOT CHANGED AND SHE'S TRIED TO MATCH THE POLICIES TO MEET THE TO MEET THE MOMENT . >> AND TRICIA TRUMP FEEDS OFF AN AUDIENCE, BUT THE SEATS WILL BE EMPTY DURING TOMORROW'S DEBATE. DO YOU THINK THAT WILL IMPACT HIS PERFORMANCE? I DON'T THINK IT WILL IMPACT HIS PERFORMANCE AGAIN ON JUNE 27TH. THAT ALSO BEING SAID, I WANT TO ADDRESS THE KAMALA HARRIS PIECE. >> I'M NOT A BIG FAN OF NAME CALLING. THAT BEING SAID, YOU PROBABLY SHOULDN'T INTRODUCE SOCIALIST PRICE CONTROLS AS PART OF YOUR MAJOR POLICY WHEN YOUR OPPONENT'S ACCUSING YOU OF BEING A SOCIALIST OR A COMMUNIST. >> THAT'S JUST PURE POLITICS. >> ALL RIGHT, CRISTINA TZINTZUN RAMIREZ TRISH MCLAUGHLIN, WE HAVE TO LEAVE IT THERE. >> THANK YOU BOTH.

WHILE WILDFIRES RAGE IN CALIFORNIA, GULF COAST IS FACING THE THREAT OF A POSSIBLE HURRICANE. ABC'S CHIEF METEOROLOGIST GINGER ZEE IS TRACKING THAT FOR US. HI, GINGER. >> WE ARE CAREFULLY WATCHING THIS BROAD AREA OF THUNDERSTORMS THAT WILL LIKELY BECOME FRANCINE, OUR NEXT NAMED STORM. THAT COULD BE A LANDFALLING BY WEDNESDAY NIGHT. IT LOOKS LIKE RIGHT NOW IN LOUISIANA. BUT LET'S GO AHEAD, GO THROUGH THIS. SO IT'S GOING TO TAKE A BIT FOR THIS TO GET A CENTER TOGETHER AND THE WINDS AND THAT'S WHEN IT WILL EVENTUALLY GET ITS NAME. AND SO IT'LL TAKE ABOUT 24 HOURS UNTIL WE REALLY START TO SEE THE MOVEMENT HERE. AND A TROUGH PICKS IT UP AND MOVES IT EAST OF MOST OF SOUTHEAST TEXAS. AT THIS MOMENT, THE PATH WHICH REMEMBER IT CAN GO ANYWHERE WITHIN THIS CONE. SO IF IT'S ON THE WESTERN SIDE, YOU GET MORE RAIN ON THE BACKSIDE IN HOUSTON, ON THE EASTERN SIDE, NEW ORLEANS HAS MORE IMPACTS. BUT AT THIS MOMENT, THE SHORTER TERM MODELS HAVE IT STILL KIND OF HANGING IN THE GULF. THERE TUESDAY AT NOON, VERY FAR SOUTH IN TEXAS, GETTING SOME OF THOSE OUTER BANDS. THEN BY WEDNESDAY MORNING, GALVESTON FEELING OF THE OUTER BANDS. BUT AT THE CENTER, THE CORE OF THE WORST OF IT IS STILL WAY OFFSHORE. AND THEN BY WEDNESDAY NIGHT, THAT'S WHEN IT LOOKS LIKE IT APPROACHES COASTAL LOUISIANA. A LOT OF THOSE SUPER LOW LYING AREAS, THAT DIRTY SIDE OR THE RIGHT SIDE KEEPS HOUMA AND THEN EVENTUALLY NEW ORLEANS THERE ON THAT EAST SIDE. SO YOU'LL BE PULLING WATER INTO IT. AND THAT'S WHERE WE SEE PROBLEMS. SO WATCH FOR THE PATH AS WE KEEP SEEING IT EVOLVE. BUT MOST IMPORTANTLY, JUST KNOW YOU WERE GOING HAVE A LOT OF RAIN NO MATTER WHERE IN THAT AREA. YOU'RE GOING TO SEE 4 TO 6 INCHES WIDESPREAD. YOU COULD SEE UP TO A FOOT LOCALLY. AND IT'S NOT JUST AT THE COAST. THIS WOULD BE INLAND FOR JACKSON, MISSISSIPPI, ALONG I-20 AND I-10, OF COURSE, BUT THEN EVEN UP TO ARKANSAS AND TENNESSEE. LET'S TALK ABOUT A COMPLETELY DIFFERENT PICTURE, IF THAT WAS THIS WEEKEND. HOT AND DRY AND SMOKY LOS ANGELES, 112 DEGREES ON FRIDAY. THAT WAS JUST ONE DEGREE FROM THEIR ALL TIME HOTTEST AND THEY'VE ONLY HAD 112 A COUPLE OF TIMES IN HISTORY. SO THAT WAS SUPER HOT. IT'S STILL WARM. EXCESSIVE HEAT WARNINGS ALL THE WAY DOWN TO THE COAST. SAN DIEGO IS INCLUDED MUCH OF NEVADA. AND THEN YOU SEE UP INTO THE ROCKIES AND, MONTANA AND WYOMING, TOO. >> THAT RIDGE WILL BE SLIDING EAST, THOUGH. SO WE'RE GOING TO SEE SOME COOLER NUMBERS COMING IN. WE CAN DROP BELOW 100 IN LAS VEGAS. LOOK AT THE MID 90S THERE. THAT'LL FEEL COOL. PHOENIX AWAY FROM 110. SO YOU KNOW RELATIVE I GUESS BUT ALSO THAT COMES WIND AND SO SOME OF THOSE FIRES ARE GOING TO HAVE THOSE GUSTY WINDS WHICH ARE THE BIGGEST PROBLEM OUT OF EVERYTHING.

FACE TO FACE, HISTORIC THE ABC NEWS PRESIDENTIAL DEBATE MODERATED DAVID MUIR AND LINSEY DAVIS TOMORROW NIGHT LIVE ON ABC AND STREAMING ON ABC NEWS LIVE. HULU AND DISNEY PLUS THE ABC NEWS PRESIDENTIAL DEBATE. WELCOME BACK TO ABC NEWS LIVE. FIRST, THANKS FOR STREAMING WITH US AND LOOKING AT PHILADELPHIA ON THIS MONDAY. AND WE HAVE A LOT OF NEWS TO GET TO. HERE'S A RUNDOWN RIGHT NOW. THE ISRAELI DEFENSE FORCES ARE REPORTING AN AERIAL INFILTRATION ATTACK IN NORTHERN ISRAEL. THE IDF SAYS TWO SUSPICIOUS AERIAL DEVICES CROSSED INTO ISRAELI TERRITORY FROM, LEBANON, BUT THAT NO ONE WAS INJURED. ISRAELI MEDIA REPORTS A DRONE AFTER CRASHING INTO AN APARTMENT BLOCK. MEANWHILE, SYRIAN STATE REPORTS AT LEAST FOUR PEOPLE ARE DEAD AFTER ISRAEL LAUNCHED STRIKES ON CENTRAL SYRIA. THOSE STRIKES REPORTEDLY WOUNDED 13 OTHERS, SPARKED FIRES AND DAMAGED A HIGHWAY. ISRAEL HAS NOT COMMENTED ON THE STRIKES. AND IT COMES AS ISRAELI AUTHORITIES CONFIRM, BORDER CROSSINGS BETWEEN ISRAEL AND JORDAN HAVE PARTIALLY REOPENED AFTER, CLOSING DUE TO AN ATTACK THAT KILLED THREE POLICE OFFICERS. JURY SELECTION BEGINS TODAY IN THE TRIAL OF THREE FORMER MEMPHIS POLICE CHARGED IN THE DEATH OF TYREE NICHOLS. NICHOLS DIED LAST YEAR AFTER PULLED OVER AND RUNNING FROM POLICE WHO CAUGHT AND BEAT HIM. POLICE VIDEO SHOWED HIM YELLING FOR HIS MOTHER. HE DIED THREE DAYS LATER IN THE HOSPITAL. FORMER OFFICERS TO DARIUS, DEMETRIUS, HALEY AND JUSTIN SMITH ARE CHARGED WITH DEPRIVING NICHOLS OF HIS CIVIL RIGHTS. THEY HAVE PLEADED NOT GUILTY. EGGS ARE BEING RECALLED AMID A SALMONELLA OUTBREAK IN NINE STATES THAT HAS LEFT AT LEAST 65 PEOPLE INFECTED. MOST VICTIMS ARE IN WISCONSIN. OFFICIALS. THE TAINTED EGGS WERE SOLD UNDER THE BRANDS MILO'S POULTRY FARMS AND TONY'S MARKET. THE CDC IS ADVISING ANYONE WHO ATE THOSE EGGS AND IS EXPERIENCING SYMPTOMS TO CONTACT A HEALTH CARE PROVIDER. US SOCCER STAR ALEX MORGAN IS LEAVING IT ALL ON THE FIELD AFTER ANNOUNCING HER RETIREMENT IN THE 13TH MINUTE OF THE GAME IN HONOR OF HER JERSEY NUMBER 13. MORGAN OFF HER CLEATS AND MADE HER FINAL WALK TO THE SIDELINE. MORGAN NEARLY 14 YEAR CAREER INCLUDED 224 APPEARANCES FOR THE NATIONAL TEAM, 123 INTERNATIONAL GOALS, TWO WORLD CUP TITLES AND AN OLYMPIC GOLD MEDAL. ALEX MORGAN AND HER HUSBAND ARE EXPECTING THEIR SECOND CHILD AND VICE PRESIDENT AND FORMER PRESIDENT TRUMP ARE SET TO FACE OFF ON THE DEBATE STAGE FOR THE FIRST TIME TOMORROW NIGHT. HARRIS SAYS SHE'S READY AFTER HUNKERING DOWN FOR INTENSE DEBATE PREP. MEANWHILE, TRUMP HAS BEEN HOLDING POLICY SESSIONS WITH A SMALL TEAM OF ADVISERS FIRING OFF VARIOUS QUESTIONS AT HIM FOR HIS STANCES AND LEGAL. ABC'S JAY O'BRIEN JOINS ME NOW FROM PHILADELPHIA FOR MORE ON THAT. JAY THE STAGE IS SET NOW. SO WHAT'S AT HERE FOR BOTH CANDIDATES? I MEAN THE STAKES NOT BE HIGHER. DIANE, IF YOU THINK ABOUT THE LAST TIME THERE WAS A DEBATE IN THIS PRESIDENTIAL CYCLE, THERE WERE TWO DIFFERENT CANDIDATES ON THAT STAGE AND THAT AND PRESIDENT BIDEN'S PERFORMANCE IN IT LITERALLY REWROTE ENTIRE STORY OF THIS RACE. THE STAKES COULDN'T BE HIGHER. THIS IS GOING TO BE A TEST, REALLY FOR BOTH CANDIDATES OF THEIR KIND PUNCHING AND COUNTERPUNCHING STYLE. THESE ARE BOTH DEBATERS THAT LIKE TO COME ON TO THE STAGE WITH GUNS BLAZING. WE'VE SEEN THAT IN PRESIDENT TRUMP'S POLITICAL HISTORY. THINKING BACK TO HIS DEBATES WITH SECRETARY CLINTON IN THE 2016 ELECTION. WITH KAMALA HARRIS, WE'VE SEEN THAT OVER THE COURSE OF HER ENTIRE POLITICAL CAREER AS WELL. THINK BACK TO THOSE IN THE 2020 CYCLE. THE DEMOCRATIC PRIMARY DEBATES IN WHICH SHE WAS RESPONSIBLE FOR REALLY A NUMBER OF ATTACK LINES AGAINST. THEN CANDIDATE JOE BIDEN, NOW PRESIDENT BIDEN, FOR WHOM SHE SERVED AS VICE PRESIDENT. SO THESE ARE BOTH CANDIDATES WHO LIKE TO PUNCH WHO LIKE TO COUNTERPUNCH. THOSE STYLES WILL BE TESTED WHEN THEY MEET HEAD ON. HEAD THEY HAVE NEVER EVEN BEEN IN THE SAME ROOM TOGETHER. THEY'VE NEVER MET IN PERSON. AND ALSO, THE RULES ARE GOING TO PLAY A FACTOR IN ALL OF THIS, PARTICULARLY THE MICROPHONES. WHEN WE TALK ABOUT THAT PUNCHING AND COUNTERPUNCHING STYLE. ONE OF THE RULES THAT BOTH CAMPAIGNS HAVE AGREED TO IS THAT THE MICROPHONES BE MUTED WHEN IT IS NOT THAT CANDIDATE'S TURN TO SPEAK, SO THAT SOMETIMES HAMPERS THE ABILITY TO COUNTERPUNCH IN THE EYES OF THE HARRIS CAMPAIGN. IT ALSO HAMPERS THE ABILITY FOR AMERICANS TO HEAR SOME OF THE FREE, OFF THE CUFF THINGS THAT DONALD TRUMP SAYS. BUT NO DOUBT, VICE PRESIDENT IS STILL GOING TO TRY TO MAKE NOTE OF THAT. >> AND FORMER DEMOCRATIC AND TRUMP ADVISER TULSI GABBARD SAID ON FOX NEWS TODAY THAT HARRIS SHOULD NOT BE UNDERESTIMATED. SHE STRESSED THE SOLID PREP THAT HARRIS HAS BEEN DOING AND HOW SERIOUSLY SHE'S TAKING THE DEBATE. >> IS THE TRUMP CAMPAIGN TRYING TO TEMPER EXPECTATIONS HERE? THE EXPECTATIONS GAME IS INTERESTING BECAUSE WITH THE EXPECTATIONS GAME AS IT RELATES TO PRESIDENT BIDEN, FOR INSTANCE, THEY LOWERED EXPECTATIONS SO LOW THAT PRESIDENT BIDEN COULD HAVE REALLY DONE A LOT TO CLEAR THOSE EXPECTATIONS. AND EVEN THEN, HE DIDN'T HEAR THEY'RE DOING IS RAISING, IN A WAY, EXPECTATIONS ABOUT KAMALA HARRIS, TALKING ABOUT HER STYLE IN THE COURTROOM. AT LEAST TRUMP'S ORBIT IS DOING WHEN IT COMES TO FORMER PRESIDENT TRUMP. HE DOESN'T NECESSARILY GO THAT FAR AS TO PRAISE HIS RIVAL THE WAY HE SOMETIMES TRIED DO WITH JOE BIDEN. TRY TO RAISE THAT EXPECTATIONS BAR. BUT WHEN IT COMES TO TULSI GABBARD, THERE'S ONE MORE THING TO KEEP IN MIND HERE, WHICH IS SHE HAS A WINDOW INTO HOW THE TRUMP CAMPAIGN AND FORMER PRESIDENT TRUMP SPECIFICALLY ARE GOING TO TREAT THIS DEBATE. THINK BACK TO 2019. IT WAS TULSI GABBARD WHO HAD THE STRONGEST ATTACK LINES AGAINST KAMALA HARRIS WHEN THEY WERE ON THAT DEMOCRATIC PRIMARY STAGE TOGETHER, TALKING ABOUT HARRIS' CAREER AS A PROSECUTOR. SO WITH TULSI GABBARD IN THE ROOM ADVISING TRUMP, IT GIVES YOU PERHAPS A WINDOW INTO HIS THINKING GOING INTO TOMORROW NIGHT. ALL RIGHT, JAY O'BRIEN THANK YOU. >> AND THE FIRST PRESIDENTIAL DEBATE BETWEEN FORMER PRESIDENT TRUMP AND VICE PRESIDENT HARRIS IS TOMORROW NIGHT. YOU CAN WATCH IT RIGHT HERE ON ABC NEWS LIVE WITH COVERAGE STARTING AT 9 P.M. EASTERN. >> AND AN INVESTIGATION IS AFTER A CHAOTIC START TO THE SEASON FOR MIAMI DOLPHINS.

HILL PUT ON A SHOW ON THE FIELD CATCHING SEVEN PASSES, INCLUDING THIS 80 YARD TOUCHDOWN, THEN APPEARING TO CELEBRATE BY MIMICKING BEING HANDCUFFED. >> SOME OF HILL'S TEAMMATES SAW WHAT WAS HAPPENING. THEY PULLED OVER AND TRIED TO HELP. OVERNIGHT, HILL'S AGENT RELEASING A STATEMENT SAYING IN PART THAT WHAT HAPPENED IS COMPLETELY HE DID NOT DESERVE TO BE TREATED THIS WAY AND THAT LEGAL TEAM WILL BE PURSUING THE MATTER. DIANE? >> ABC'S VICTOR OQUENDO. THANK YOU. AND NEW DETAILS ARE EMERGING ABOUT A POSSIBLE OVERLOOKED WARNING BEFORE LAST WEEK'S DEADLY SHOOTING AT APALACHEE HIGH SCHOOL IN GEORGIA. THE SUSPECTS AND TELLS ABC NEWS HIS MOTHER CALLED THE HIGH SCHOOL ON THE MORNING OF THE SHOOTING TO WARN A COUNSELOR OF A, QUOTE, EXTREME EMERGENCY INVOLVING SON. NOW SHE'S EXPRESSING FRUSTRATION THAT THE SCHOOL FAILED PREVENT THE TRAGEDY. >> ABC'S FAITH ABUBEY HAS MORE. >> NEW QUESTIONS ABOUT WHETHER THERE WERE MISSED WARNING SIGNS AHEAD OF A GEORGIA SCHOOL SHOOTING THAT KILLED FOUR PEOPLE AND INJURED NINE OTHERS. >> THE SCHOOL IS SUPPOSED TO BE A SAFE PLACE FOR KIDS FROM THE ACCUSED GUNMAN, TELLING ABC NEWS ROUGHLY 30 MINUTES BEFORE THE SHOOTING AT APALACHEE HIGH SCHOOL IN WINDER, COOLIDGE, GRAY'S MOTHER CALLED A SCHOOL COUNSELOR TO WARN OF AN EXTREME EMERGENCY. HIS MOTHER, MARCI GRAY, SPEAKING TO ABC NEWS OVERNIGHT SAYING SHE TRIED TO GET HIM THE HELP HE NEEDED ONE. >> 000. THE AUNT TELLING THE WASHINGTON THAT DURING THE TEN MINUTE CONVERSATION, A SCHOOL COUNSELOR TOLD MARCI GRAY THAT HER SON HAD SPOKEN ABOUT A SCHOOL SHOOTING THE SAME MORNING CLASSMATE LELA SCIARRA TELLING ABC NEWS THAT A SCHOOL CONFISCATED A BACKPACK OF A STUDENT WITH A SIMILAR. >> A LITTLE BIT LATER HE CAME BACK IN WITH HIS BAG AND HE SAID THAT THEY WEREN'T LOOKING FOR HIM. THEY WERE LOOKING FOR, QUOTE. MOMENTS LATER, THE ACCUSED TEENAGER ALLEGEDLY OPENED FIRE. >> THE CLASSROOM DOOR. DIANE, THE ALLEGED SHOOTER AND HIS FATHER ARE BOTH FACING MULTIPLE FELONY CHARGES RELATED TO THIS MASS SHOOTING. THEY HAVE NOT ENTERED A PLEA IN COURT. IN THE MEANTIME, SCHOOL DISTRICT OFFICIALS ARE NOT COMMENTING ON THE FAMILY'S CLAIMS THAT THEY WERE WARNED, BUT THE BELL COUNTY SHERIFF TELLS ME IT'S MISINFORMATION. DIANE. ABC'S FAITH ABUBEY. THANK YOU. AND A TRIAL BEGINS TODAY IN A NEW ANTITRUST LAWSUIT THAT COULD BREAK GOOGLE. THE JUSTICE DEPARTMENT IS ACCUSING THE COMPANY OF A MONOPOLY OVER ITS ADVERTISING TECHNOLOGY. THE TRIAL COMES A MONTH AFTER A JUDGE RULED GOOGLE'S SEARCH ENGINE IS AN ILLEGAL MONOPOLY BECAUSE LEGAL BRIAN BUCKMIRE JOINS ME NOW FOR MORE ON THAT. BRIAN, GOOD MORNING. >> YOU KNOW, THE JUSTICE DEPARTMENT ARGUES THAT GOOGLE'S DOMINANCE ALLOWS IT TO CHARGE EXCESSIVE FEES FOR ADS ON ITS PLATFORM. >> BUT GOOGLE THE GOVERNMENT'S CASE IS TOO FOCUSED ON DESKTOP ADS AND DOESN'T TAKE INTO ACCOUNT MOBILE APPS SOCIAL MEDIA. >> WHAT DO YOU MAKE OF BOTH OF THOSE ARGUMENTS? GOOD MORNING, DAN. I THINK IT'S A GOOD ARGUMENT. IT COULD BE ONE THAT IF GOOGLE LOSES, COULD IMPACT THE OVERALL DAMAGES OF THE CASE, SAYING THAT WE ONLY FOCUS ON THIS SMALL SECTION AND NOT THE LARGER IMPACT OF IT. BUT I THINK GOOGLE HAS TO STEP UP THEIR ARGUMENT A LITTLE BIT MORE AND ADDRESS SOME OF THE ISSUES THAT THE DOJ IS ARGUING PRIMARILY THAT THEY'RE ACQUIRING COMPETITION, THEY'RE FORCING THE ADOPTION OF THEIR GOOGLE TOOLS, KIND OF AN ALL OR NOTHING TYPE OF METHOD THAT THEY'RE DISRUPTING THE AUCTION COMPETITION, MANIPULATING THAT AUCTION. IN THE DOJ FILING, THEY ACTUALLY QUOTE AN AD EXACT THAT WHAT GOOGLE IS DOING IN CONTROLLING THE BUYING SELLING AND USE OF THIS AD TECHNOLOGY WOULD BE LIKE IF GOLDMAN CITIBANK OWNED THE NEW YORK STOCK EXCHANGE. SO THEY HAVE TO DO A LITTLE BIT MORE THAN JUST MAKE A SMALL ARGUMENT. >> SO HOW SIGNIFICANT IS IT THAT A, HAS ALREADY DECLARED GOOGLE SEARCH ENGINE AN ILLEGAL MONOPOLY? >> COULD THAT AFFECT THIS CASE? IT SHOULDN'T AFFECT CASE. THERE ARE TWO DIFFERENT CASES ALTOGETHER, ONE ABOUT A SEARCH ENGINE AND ONE ABOUT ADS. HOWEVER, THEY ARE BOTH ANTITRUST CASES IN THE SAME IN THE SHERMAN ACT. AND SO SOME OF THE ARGUMENTS THAT WE PERCEIVE GOOGLE PROBABLY MAKING IN THIS CASE SEEM TO HAVE ALREADY FAILED THE FIRST ONE. SO I THINK IN TERMS OF A FACT, THEY SHOULD LEARN FROM PAST MISTAKES AND LOOK TO VENTURE INTO OTHER AREAS THAT THEY CAN ARGUE. SO WHAT'S AT STAKE FOR GOOGLE HERE? A LOT, BOTH IN TERMS OF DOLLAR AMOUNTS AND LITIGATION THERE. THE DOJ IS FOCUSING ON TRYING TO DIVEST GOOGLE'S AD MANAGER SUITE. THAT'S WHAT ALLOWS PEOPLE TO BE TO BUY AND SELL AD SPACE. AND JUST IN THE SECOND QUARTER ALONE, THE DOJ SAYS THAT GOOGLE MADE $7.4 BILLION. SO A VERY LARGE PRICE TAG THERE. BUT ALSO, IF THE DOJ WINS, WOULD EXPECT ADVERTISERS WHO ARE AFFECTED BY THIS TO ALSO START THEIR OWN CASE AGAINST GOOGLE. AND YOU MIGHT SEE THE FLOODGATES SO-TO-SPEAK OPEN UP THERE. AND IN AN ANTITRUST CASE, IT'S ALWAYS SMART TO REMEMBER THAT WHEN PEOPLE, THEY LOOK FOR TREBLE DAMAGES. >> SO TRIPLE THE AMOUNT THAT THEY LOST. >> ALL RIGHT. ABC NEWS LEGAL CONTRIBUTOR BRIAN BUCKMIRE. THANK YOU. >> COMING UP, KENDRICK LAMAR IS SET TO HEADLINE THE BIGGEST SHOW OF THE YEAR, WHAT WE CAN EXPECT FROM THE 17 TIME GRAMMY WINNER, THE SUPER BOWL WITH SO MUCH AT STAKE, SO MUCH ON THE LINE, MORE AMERICANS TURN HERE THAN ANY OTHER NEWSCAST.

YOU'RE STREAMING ABC NEWS LIVE, ABC NEWS LIVE, YOU'RE STREAMING, ABC, THINGS LIKE ABC NEWS LIVE, STREAMING FREE EVERYWHERE FIRST THING IN THE MORNING. THERE'S A LOT GOING ON. WE'RE STILL IN A FLASH WARNING TO CATCH YOU UP WITH WHAT HAPPENED OVERNIGHT. CLASHING OVER NATIONAL. WHAT'S HAPPENING TODAY? TENSIONS IN THE MIDDLE EAST, WHAT PEOPLE WERE TALKING ABOUT, THE WORRIES ON WALL STREET, FAST STRAIGHT FORWARD WITH SOME FUN IN BETWEEN. CATCHING UP ON SLEEP DURING THE WEEKEND COULD BE GOOD FOR YOUR HEART. NONALCOHOLIC BARS ARE POPPING UP IN A GROWING NUMBER OF CITIES. THAT'S THE SPIRIT, AMERICA THIS MORNING. AMERICA'S NUMBER ONE EARLY MORNING NEWS ON ABC NEWS. >> WHY IT'S LUNCH TIME IN AMERICA? SO WHAT DO WE SERVE? WELL, HOW ABOUT EVERYTHING YOU NEED TO KNOW YOUR HEALTH, YOUR MONEY. BREAKING NEWS POP CULTURE WITH THE BIGGEST STARS. MUSIC TRENDS AND OF COURSE, GOOD FOOD. THAT'S COMING UP ON. YOU'RE GOING TO LOVE IT. WE'LL SEE YOU THEN. SEE THREE WHAT YOU NEED TO KNOW. A THIRD HOUR JAMMING IN THE AFTERNOON. SO JORDAN AFTERNOON HERE. >> EVERYTHING YOU NEED TO KNOW ABOUT. BACK TO. WELCOME BACK ABC NEWS LIVE. >> FIRST FOOTBALL IS BACK AND THE FIRST NFL SUNDAY OF THE YEAR IS OFFICIALLY IN THE BOOKS. WE SAW UPSETS WITH THE DOUBLE DIGIT UNDERDOG NEW ENGLAND PATRIOTS TAMING THE CINCINNATI BENGALS AND WE SAW SOME ROOKIES STUMBLE WITH THE NUMBER ONE OVERALL PICK IN THE DRAFT STRUGGLING ADJUST TO THE PRO GAME. FOR ALL THAT AND MORE OR LESS HAS BEEN SENIOR NFL WRITER JEREMY FOWLER. JEREMY, THANKS SO MUCH FOR COMING ON. WHAT A WEEK ONE. CURIOUS TO KNOW, WHAT ARE YOUR BIGGEST TAKEAWAYS AFTER? >> THE FIRST NFL SUNDAY OF THE YEAR? >> YEAH, THANK YOU FOR HAVING ME. YOU KNOW, AMERICA'S TEAM, THE DALLAS COWBOYS, LOOKS PRETTY DARN GOOD AFTER A OFFSEASON OF TURMOIL AND SOME OF THEIR STAR PLAYERS NOT BEING SIGNED TO THE BIG CONTRACTS UNTIL VERY IN THE PROCESS. DAK PRESCOTT, THE QUARTERBACK SIGNING A $240 MILLION DEAL JUST HOURS BEFORE KICKOFF . THERE WERE QUESTIONS ABOUT WHETHER THE COWBOYS, WHO HAVE TRADITIONALLY STRUGGLED IN THE PLAYOFFS, ARE GOING TO BE ABLE TO PUT IT ALL TOGETHER THIS YEAR. WELL, THEY HAD A VERY CONVINCING WIN OVER THE BROWNS ,UP 33 POINTS. THEY LOOK LIKE THEY'RE GOING TO BE RIGHT IN THE PLAYOFF MIX . SO THAT STOOD OUT TO ME PLAYING A BROWNS TEAM THAT IS SORT OF THE OPPOSITE RIGHT NOW A LITTLE BIT WITH DESHAUN WATSON, A QUARTERBACK. THEY GAVE A LOT OF MONEY TO, HAS STRUGGLED IN THE LAST FEW YEARS, STRUGGLED AGAIN YESTERDAY. SO THE BROWNS NEED HIM TO REALLY PICK UP THE PACE A LITTLE BIT. >> JEREMY, ROOKIES STRUGGLED A BIT YESTERDAY, PARTICULARLY ROOKIE QUARTERBACK. SHOULD THESE TEAMS BE WORRIED? >> I WOULDN'T SAY WORRIED YET. MAYBE A MILD CONCERN. YOU'D WANT TO SEE A LITTLE MORE OUTPUT. YOU KNOW, BO NIX, THE ROOKIE STARTER IN DENVER AVERAGED JUST OVER THREE YARDS PER PASSING ATTEMPT THAT'S JUST NOT GOING TO GET IT DONE AT THE NFL LEVEL. >> BUT A LOT OF TIMES, YOU KNOW, COACHES WILL ALWAYS WARN ME WEEK ONE, WEEK TWO, THE DEFENSES ARE USUALLY A LITTLE BIT AHEAD. YOU KNOW, THEY'VE GOT AN ADVANTAGE, THEY'VE GOT MORE EXPERIENCE. AND SO THEY CAN CONFUSE THESE YOUNG QUARTERBACKS. BUT YOU KNOW, YOU GOT CALEB WILLIAMS, THE NUMBER ONE OVERALL PICK THROWING FOR LESS THAN 90 YARDS IN A GAME WHEN YOU TYPICALLY NEED 200 TO 250 YARDS TO WIN NFL CONTEST MOST WEEKS. SO IT'S A BIT OF AN ISSUE AND. THEY ALL STRUGGLED A LITTLE BIT, BUT THERE'S A LOT OF TALENT. THIS IS CONSIDERED ONE OF THE BETTER QUARTERBACK CLASSES IN RECENT YEARS WITH SIX OF THE QUARTERBACKS GOING IN THE TOP 12 PICKS BACK IN APRIL'S NFL DRAFT. SO THEY SHOULD GET IT TOGETHER. THERE'S ENOUGH TALENT. WELL, THAT WILL SHINE OVER 17 GAMES. >> AND JEREMY TONIGHT MIGHT BE THE MOST ANTICIPATED DAY IN FOOTBALL SINCE THE SUPER BOWL, RIGHT? THE RETURN OF AARON RODGERS. THE JETS TAKE ON THE 40 NINERS AND RODGERS OF COURSE, SET FOR THIS SEASON ENDING INJURY. JUST THREE PLAYS INTO LAST SEASON. SO WHAT ARE YOU EXPECTING TO SEE TONIGHT. >> YEAH AARON RODGERS RETURN IS PROBABLY THE BEST STORYLINE IN THE NFL RIGHT NOW. THIS IS A QUARTERBACK WHO'S NOW 40 YEARS OLD HAS SOME QUESTIONS ABOUT WHETHER BODY AT THAT AGE COULD RESPOND TO AN ACHILLES TEAR THAT HE HAD TO REHAB FOR MONTHS. AND NOT ONLY HAS HE REHAB SUCCESSFULLY, BUT HE'S LOOKED REALLY GOOD IN THE PRESEASON AND TRAINING CAMP WITH THE JETS. THIS IS A TEAM THAT TRADITIONALLY HAS STRUGGLED BUT THEY HAVE A LOT OF TALENT RIGHT NOW AROUND RODGERS. >> THE QUESTION IS, CAN HE GET AROUND THE POCKET AND MOVE AROUND, SHOW HIS MOBILITY AND STILL THROW ON THE RUN LIKE HE'S DONE SO SUCCESSFULLY ALL THESE YEARS? WE'LL FIND OUT AGAINST ONE OF THE VERY BEST DEFENSES IN THE NFL, THE 49 OR SO. YOU KNOW, THE JETS ARE GOING TO BE AN OFF SEASON COMPELLING STORYLINE REALLY EVERY WEEK OF THE YEAR STARTING TONIGHT. AND AARON RODGERS HAS ALWAYS BEEN PRODUCTIVE. SO I'M ASSUMING WILL BE TONIGHT. >> ALL RIGHT. WE'LL SEE HOW HE DOES. ESPN SENIOR NFL WRITER JEREMY FOWLER. THANKS, JEREMY. AND AGAIN, AARON RODGERS RETURNS TONIGHT AGAINST THE DEFENDING NFC CHAMPION SAN FRANCISCO. 49 ERS MONDAY NIGHT FOOTBALL, 815 EASTERN HERE ON ABC AND ESPN. >> AND IN OTHER FOOTBALL NEWS, GRAMMY AWARD WINNER KENDRICK LAMAR IS SET TO POP OUT ON NFL'S STAGE NEXT FEBRUARY AT THE SUPER BOWL IN NEW ORLEANS. THEN, LIKE US RAPPER TOOK TO SOCIAL MEDIA, MAKING THE ANNOUNCEMENT ALONGSIDE THE NFL ROCK NATION AND APPLE MUSIC, LAMAR IS NOW THE ONLY RAPPER EVER SOLO HEADLINE, THE SUPER BOWL. ABC NEWS CONTRIBUTOR SIRIUS XM RADIO HOST MIKE MUSE IS JOINING ME NOW FOR MORE ON THIS. MIKE, THANKS FOR COMING ON. YOU KNOW KENDRICK LAMAR DOMINATED THIS SUMMER IN PART DUE TO HIS ONGOING BEEF WITH DRAKE. SO IS IT A RISKY FOR THE HALFTIME SHOW TO SEEMINGLY LEAN INTO THAT AND APPARENTLY TAKE A SIDE HERE? >> I KNOW IT'S RISKY IN THE SENSE OF INDIRECTLY LOOKING AT TAKING HIS SIDE, BUT IT IS IMPORTANT IN OUR CULTURE. AND IF YOU LOOK AT THE DATA, HIP-HOP IS ONE OF THE MOST CONSUMED GENRES CURRENTLY RIGHT NOW. AND IF YOU LOOK AT WHAT HAPPENED BETWEEN THE BEEF BETWEEN KENDRICK AND DRAKE, REALLY ELEVATED HIP-HOP TO NEW AUDIENCES AND IT REALLY INFUSE NEW ENERGY INTO HIP-HOP IN PARTICULAR COMING OFF OF THE 50TH ANNIVERSARY OF THAT. SO THE IDEA THAT YOU WOULD PRESUMABLY WHAT EVERYONE SAYS IS THE WINNER OF THAT THAT RAP BATTLE WILL BE ON THE LARGEST STAGE WITHIN THE SUPER BOWL, AVERAGING 140 MILLION VIEWS TO HAVE KENDRICK ON THAT STAGE PERFORMING. IT'S HUGE FOR HIP-HOP IS HUGE FOR THE CULTURE, AND IT IS REFLECTIVE OF JUST HOW BIG THAT MOMENT IS. >> THEY'RE UPSET THAT NEW ORLEANS NATIVE ISN'T HEADLINING SINCE THAT'S WHERE THE GAME IS TAKING PLACE. LIL WAYNE'S ENGINEER POSTED THAT HE WAS CONFUSED AND ANGRY THAT LIL WASN'T CHOSEN. >> WHAT DO YOU MAKE OF THAT AND SOME OF THE NEGATIVE REACTIONS? >> YEAH, NO, ABSOLUTELY. I UNDERSTAND EXACTLY HOW LITTLE WAYNE IS FEELING. BOTH CAN BE TRUE. YOU CAN BE UPSET ABOUT LITTLE NOT PERFORMING. FEEL LIKE LIL WAYNE SHOULD BE THERE BECAUSE THAT IS HIS HOME. BUT SUPER BOWL IS ALL ABOUT THE BIG TEAMS, THE TWO BEST TEAMS IN THE NFL GOING HEAD TO HEAD FOR THIS BIG CULTURAL MOMENT. AND SO YOU WANT TO MAKE SURE THAT THE ARTIST THAT IS IS MEET THE MEET THE MOMENT OF THE PLAY ON THE FIELD. AND AT THIS MOMENT CURRENTLY RIGHT NOW, KENDRICK LAMAR IS THE BIGGEST MOMENT THAT WE HAVE NOW IN CULTURE AND IN MUSIC FOR WHAT THAT REPRESENTED. SO THAT MADE SENSE FOR THAT SELECTION. SO BOTH CAN BE TRUE AT THE SAME TIME. I DO HOPE THE PRODUCER OF THE HALFTIME SHOW, JESSE COLLINS, FINDS A WAY TO INCLUDE LIL WAYNE IN SOME CAPACITY. DON'T KNOW HOW THAT BE DONE, BUT IT WILL BE NICE TO SEE. >> ALL RIGHT. YOU'RE KIND OF LEADING ME TO MY NEXT QUESTION, WHICH IS KENDRICK HAS PERFORMED THE SUPER BOWL BEFORE. HE WAS THERE IN 2022 WITH A HOST OF OTHER HIP LEGENDS. >> SO LET'S TALK SPECIAL GUESTS. WHO DO YOU THINK WE MIGHT SEE PERFORM BESIDE KENDRICK THIS TIME AROUND? >> I MEAN, POSSIBLY LIL WAYNE, BUT ALSO TO KENDRICK IS SUCH AN ART AS HE IS VERY THEATRICAL. >> IF YOU LOOK AT WHAT HE DID WHEN HE DID HIS LIVE FROM PARIS CONCERT ON AMAZON MUSIC. HIS THEATRICAL PERFORMANCE IS AMAZING. THE WAY HE DOES THE STAGE. IT STAGING IS INCREDIBLE. AND IF YOU LOOK AT SOME OF THE FEATURES THAT HE'S ADDED IN SOME OF HIS VIDEOS IN PARTICULAR, THEY'RE NOT LIKE US. YOU JUST NEVER KNOW WHAT IT IS. BUT I THINK IF IT'S GOING TO BE ,IT'S GOING TO BE ARTIST AND CULTURAL REPRESENTATIVE FROM LOS ANGELES, SOUTH CENTRAL LOS ANGELES, AND CONTENT IN PARTICULAR THAT THEY REALLY SEE A LOT OF WEST COAST REFERENCES AND POSSIBLY LIL WAYNE, IF WE SEE ANY FEATURES AT ALL. >> ALL RIGHT. WE'LL SEE. MIKE MUSE, THANKS, FRIEND. THANK YOU. COMING UP, THE NEW SCHOOL AND THE RETURN TO A RIGOROUS ROUTINE. AND TODAY'S MOTIVATION MONDAY, MAKE SURE THEIR SELF CAREC DOESN'T TAKE A BACKSEAT. >> WHENEVER NEWS BREAKS, WE ARE HERE IN A NATION AT WAR ENROLLING FOR TORNADO TALKS THROUGH THIS HOUSE. >> SOUND FROM LEWISTON, MAINE, THE SCENE OF A HORRIFIC MASS SHOOTING FROM THE SCENE OF THAT DEADLY MISSILE STRIKE.

THINGS JUST GET SO BUSY THAT I JUST DON'T HAVE TIME. SO NOW THAT SCHOOL SEASON IS BACK IN SESSION, HOW DO YOU STICK TO A ROUTINE OR MAYBE A NEW ONE ONCE THE SCHEDULE STARTS SHIFTING LIKE THEY DO TIME OF YEAR? >> WELL, WHEN THE SCHEDULE STARTS TO SHIFT, EVERYTHING GETS A LITTLE BIT CHAOTIC. WE TO TAKE A SECOND AND JUST PAUSE AND REALIZE WE WOKE UP FIRST THING IN THE MORNING. JUST THAT LEVEL GRATITUDE CAN CANCEL OUT SO MUCH NEGATIVITY AND FEAR AND SO MUCH THE LEVEL OF MENTAL RESISTANCE THAT IF YOU GET INTO THIS MINDSET OF THE JUST STEMS MOTTO OF YOU DON'T HAVE TO GET TO THAT OPPORTUNITY, THAT'S SHIFTING THAT PERSPECTIVE WILL ALLOW TO GET TO YOUR GOALS A LITTLE BIT EASIER. SO JUST HAVING THAT UNDERSTANDING OF YOU DON'T HAVE TO YOU GET TO IS A VERY BIG TOOL THAT I TRY TO TEACH PEOPLE IN A SENSE OF GETTING YOUR FITNESS ROUTINE OR ANYTHING STARTED THAT'S NEW. >> SO I DON'T TO GO WORKOUT. >> I GET YOU GET YOUR WORKOUT AS A BLESSING.

I'M IKE EJIOCHI AND WHEREVER THE STORY IS, WE'LL TAKE YOU THERE. NOW SEEKING ABC NEWS LIVE LIVE . HI I'M DIANE MACEDO TODAY ON ABC NEWS LIVE FIRST VICE PRESIDENT HARRIS AND FORMER PRESIDENT TRUMP'S FIRST FACE TO FACE SHOWDOWN. THE PRESIDENTIAL CANDIDATES ARE PREPARING TOMORROW AND WHAT A NEW POLL SHOWS ABOUT THE STATE OF THE RACE. THE URGENT MANHUNT UNDERWAY FOR A HIGHWAY SHOOTING SUSPECT IN KENTUCKY. WHAT WE'RE LEARNING ABOUT THE SUSPECT. WHERE HE MIGHT BE HIDING AND THE CONDITION THE FIVE PEOPLE SHOT. AND BRACING FOR FRANCES IN THE GULF COAST IS ON ALERT FOR POSSIBLE HURRICANE. THE STATE'S UNDER THE THREAT. >> AND WHEN THE STORM COULD MAKE LANDFALL, THE FIRST VICE PRESIDENT, HARRIS AND FORMER PRESIDENT TRUMP ARE SET TO FACE OFF ON THE DEBATE STAGE THE FIRST TIME TOMORROW NIGHT. >> HARRIS SAYS SHE'S READY AFTER HUNKERING DOWN FOR AN INTENSE DEBATE PREP, TRUMP IS HOLDING INFORMAL POLICY SESSIONS WITH A SMALL TEAM OF ADVISERS WHO'VE BEEN ASKING HIM FOR HIM TO PRACTICE ON HIS LEGAL TROUBLES, HIS STANCE ON ABORTION AND MORE. WE HAVE FULL TEAM COVERAGE JUST ONE DAY LEFT UNTIL THE DEBATE STARTING WITH ABC NEWS SENIOR REPORTER KATHERINE FAULDERS IN PHILADELPHIA. >> KATHERINE VICE PRESIDENT HARRIS HAS ONLY DONE ONE UNSCRIPTED EVENT, ONE INTERVIEW SINCE BECOMING THE NOMINEE. SO HOW HIGH ARE THE STAKES FOR HER TOMORROW? YEAH, THE STAKES ARE EXTREMELY HIGH HERE, DIANE. THIS IS HER FIRST PRESIDENTIAL DEBATE. IT WILL BE DONALD TRUMP'S SEVENTH PRESIDENTIAL DEBATE. THE TWO, OF COURSE, HAVEN'T MET ON ANY STAGE, SO THE STAKES ARE CERTAINLY HIGH. AND HARRIS IS TAKING DEBATE VERY SERIOUSLY. SHE'S IN PITTSBURGH, HUNKERED DOWN WITH HER TEAM AND THEY'RE DOING MOCK SESSIONS, IF YOU WILL, THERE EVEN ESSENTIALLY HAVE A DEBATE STAGE SET UP WITH FULL TV LIGHTING. OF COURSE, SOMEBODY IS PLAYING THE ROLE OF DONALD TRUMP. AND ESSENTIALLY SHE HASN'T BEEN DOING MANY CAMPAIGN EVENTS AS SHE PREPARES FOR THIS EVENT . SO THE STAKES CERTAINLY HIGH SOMETHING THAT SHE REALIZES. AND OF IT COMES AS THIS RACE IS LOCKED IN A DEAD HEAT. DIANE MEANWHILE, CATHERINE, TRUMP ATTEMPTED TO LOWER EXPECTATIONS IN AN AIRPORT HANGAR RALLY IN WISCONSIN SAYING HIS OPPONENTS WILL CLAIM HE LOST EVEN IF HE, QUOTE, DESTROYS HER IN. THE DEBATE. WHAT'S AT STAKE FOR HIM HERE? WELL, A LOT AT STAKE FOR HIM, TOO. AND OF COURSE, WE DO KNOW WE'VE REPORTED THAT TRUMP ISN'T DOING THESE FORMAL DEBATE PREP SESSIONS, DOING WHAT HIS ADVISERS CALL THEM. WHAT SOURCES ARE TELLING US ARE UNQUOTE, POLICY SESSIONS. BUT AS YOU JUST MENTIONED THERE, TRUMP IS TRYING TO GET AHEAD, OF COURSE, OF ANY CRITICISM. THIS ISN'T GOING TO BE LIKE THE DEBATE WITH JOE BIDEN. IT'S GOING TO BE MUCH DIFFERENT . THIS IS SOMETHING THAT TRUMP ACKNOWLEDGES AND KNOWS BEHIND THE SCENES. AND WHILE HIS ADVISERS WANT US TO THINK THAT HE'S NOT REALLY PREPPING A AT THE END OF THE DAY. SO SEVEN OF THESE, HE IS PREPPING MORE THAN HE'S LEADING ON THE STAGE, CERTAINLY ARE HIGH AS A GROUP OF ADVISERS AROUND HIM, PEOPLE PEPPERING HIM WITH QUESTIONS ABOUT THOSE TOUGHER ISSUES, HIS LEGAL TROUBLES, CONVICTIONS STANCES ON ISSUES LIKE ABORTION, FOR EXAMPLE. SO CERTAINLY IS TAKING IT MORE SERIOUSLY BEHIND THE SCENES. ALSO ISN'T, OF COURSE, DOING THESE MOCK DEBATES. NOBODY IS PLAYING HARRIS, FOR EXAMPLE. ALL RIGHT. KATHERINE FAULDERS IN PHILADELPHIA. >> THANK YOU. MEANWHILE, A NEW POLL SHOWS THE RACE IS NECK AND, NECK HEADING INTO TOMORROW NIGHT'S DEBATE. THE NEW YORK TIMES SIENA COLLEGE POLL ALSO SHOWS VOTERS WANT TO LEARN MORE ABOUT VICE PRESIDENT HARRIS BEFORE THEY UP THEIR MINDS. ABC NEWS WASHINGTON BUREAU CHIEF POLITICAL DIRECTOR RICK KLEIN HAS THE DETAILS. >> DIANE, A CLOSE RACE FOR PRESIDENT IN SOME WAYS HAS EVEN GOTTEN CLOSER IN RECENT DAYS. THE FIVETHIRTYEIGHT POLLING AVERAGE NOW HAS HARRIS UP BY LESS THAN THREE PERCENTAGE POINTS AGAINST DONALD. SO SOME OF THE MOMENTUM THAT SHE HAD IN THE LAST COUPLE OF WEEKS APPEARS TO HAVE STALLED. AND IN THE BATTLEGROUND STATES, WE ALSO SEE A VERY TIGHT RACE RIGHT NOW, HARRIS LEADING IN FIVE OF THE SEVEN BIG BATTLEGROUNDS. BUT IT IS SO TIGHT IN ALL OF THEM, INCLUDING IN PENNSYLVANIA, WHERE THE DEBATE IS GOING TO BE TOMORROW NIGHT. HARRIS LEADING BY LESS THAN A PERCENTAGE POINT. THAT'S ESSENTIALLY A TOSS UP IN THE BIGGEST AND PROBABLY THE MOST IMPORTANT OF THE BATTLEGROUND STATES. ANOTHER THAT HIGHLIGHTS A CHALLENGE FOR KAMALA HARRIS IN A "NEW YORK TIMES" SIENA POLL OUT WEEK, TRUMP ACTUALLY LED BY A POINT OVERALL AND A THIRD OF VOTERS ALMOST 28%. SO THEY NEED TO LEARN MORE ABOUT KAMALA HARRIS AND HER POSITIONS. THAT COMPARES TO LESS THAN ONE IN TEN VOTERS WHO SAY THE SAME ABOUT DONALD TRUMP, JUST 9%. AND IN TERMS OF PERCEPTIONS AND WHAT SHE HAS TO DEFINE A LITTLE BIT, ALMOST HALF OF VOTERS IN THIS SURVEY SAID THAT THEY CONSIDERED KAMALA HARRIS TO BE TOO LIBERAL IN HER POSITIONS. LESS A THIRD OF VOTERS SAY THAT DONALD TRUMP IS TOO CONSERVATIVE. SO IT ALL LINES UP IN AN ELECTION WHERE VOTERS ALSO WANT TO SEE SOME CHANGES FROM THE BIDEN ADMINISTRATION. HARRIS HAS TO DEFINE HERSELF TO FIND HERSELF AS A MODERATE AND DEFINE AS MORE DISTINCT FROM JOE BIDEN THAN A LOT OF VOTERS CURRENTLY THINK. >> DIANE, ABC NEWS WASHINGTON BUREAU CHIEF RICK KLEIN. THANKS, RICK. AND REPUBLICAN STRATEGIST ALEXA HENNING JOINS ME NOW, ALONG WITH FORMER DEPARTMENT HOMELAND SECURITY OFFICIAL UNDER THE BIDEN ADMINISTRATION. MARSHA ESPINOSA, THANK YOU BOTH FOR COMING ON. ALEXA, THE LATEST "NEW YORK TIMES" CNN POLL SHOWS TRUMP AND HARRIS NECK AND NECK, BUT A FIVETHIRTYEIGHT BATTLEGROUND STATES POLLING SHOWS TRUMP LAGGING IN THOSE KEY RACES. SO WHAT DOES HE NEED TO DO IN THIS DEBATE TO TRY TO WIN OVER THOSE VOTERS? >> WELL, DIANE, THANK YOU FOR HAVING ME ON. I THINK THE REALLY IMPORTANT QUESTION HERE IS ABC HAS UNIQUE OPPORTUNITY. AND I KNOW YOU EVEN NOTED AT THE BEGINNING OF THIS PROGRAM THAT SHE'S ONLY DONE ONE OTHER UNSCRIPTED EVENT, AN INTERVIEW. WHAT THE AMERICAN PEOPLE WANT TO IS WHAT ARE HER POLICIES, WHAT ARE HER STANCES? WHAT DOES STAND FOR? IS IT THE KAMALA HARRIS THAT AIDES HAVE BEEN SAYING DENOUNCE ALL OF HER PREVIOUS POSITIONS? OR IS IT THAT KAMALA HARRIS, WHO'S BEEN JOE BIDEN'S VICE PRESIDENT FOR THE LAST THREE AND A HALF YEARS? I KNOW PRESIDENT TRUMP IS EAGER TO LAY OUT HIS VISION FOR AMERICA, AND I GUESS WE WILL. >> WHICH KAMALA HARRIS SHOWS UP. MARCIA, NEARLY 30% OF PEOPLE POLLED SAY THEY WANT TO KNOW MORE ABOUT HARRIS. AND TO THAT POINT, ESPECIALLY GIVEN HER LACK OF UNSCRIPTED EVENTS UNTIL THIS POINT, WHAT DO YOU THINK SHE NEEDS TO DO IN THIS DEBATE AND HOW HIGH ARE THE STAKES HER IN JUST TRYING TO LET PEOPLE KNOW WHO SHE IS AS A CANDIDATE. WELL, TO CLARIFY, IT'S NOT HER FIRST UNSCRIPTED EVENT. IT'S HER FIRST UNSCRIPTED EVENT SINCE BECOMING THE IT WHICH IS IT HAD BEEN ONLY SEVEN WEEKS. BUT SHE'S GOT A LONG OF DOING INTERVIEWS AND DEBATES. THERE IS A LOT STAKE BECAUSE WE KNOW AND THE CAMPAIGN HAS BEEN SAYING ALL ALONG THAT IS GOING TO BE RAZOR THIN MAJORITY. SO WHILE THIS DEBATE GOING TO CHANGE MINDS AND HEARTS, MOST PEOPLE IN EACH CAMP ARE NOT GOING TO HAVE THEIR MINDS CHANGED. >> BUT IT WILL SHINE A LIGHT ON THE STARK CONTRAST OF THESE TWO PEOPLE AND THEIR POLICIES. FOR THE COUNTRY MOVING FORWARD. SO I THINK THAT'S WHAT'S MOST IMPORTANT FOR HARRIS TO POINT OUT TO TONIGHT OR TOMORROW NIGHT IN THIS DEBATE, JUST EXACTLY WHAT'S AT STAKE HERE ON WHAT HER PLAN IS, WHAT HER VISION IS. AND LIKE YOU MENTIONED, REALLY TELL HER STORY TO THE VOTERS. WE KNOW THAT MORE ATTENTION IS GOING TO BE ON DONALD TRUMP NOW THAT BIDEN IS OUT OF THE RACE AND WE'RE NO LONGER TALKING ABOUT AGE, BUT MORE MORE ATTENTION IS GOING TO BE PAID ON DONALD TRUMP, WHO OFTEN JUST RESORTS TO RAMBLING AND LIES, INSULTS. SO THERE IS A LOT AT STAKE HERE. WE'LL ALL BE WATCHING TOMORROW NIGHT. >> ALEXA, A FORMER DEMOCRATIC REPRESENTATIVE AND NOW TRUMP TULSI GABBARD, SAID ON FOX NEWS TODAY THAT KAMALA HARRIS SHOULD NOT BE UNDERESTIMATED. SHE'S STRESSING HER SOLID PREP, SAYING THAT SHE'S BEEN TAKING THIS SERIOUSLY. WHAT DO YOU MAKE OF THAT STRATEGY? WHY DOES IT SEEM LIKE THE TRUMP CAMPAIGN IS TRYING TO TEMPER EXPECTATIONS THIS DEBATE? WELL, I THINK THE BIGGEST THING IS THE CONTRAST IS GOING TO BE BETWEEN KAMALA HARRIS AS VICE PRESIDENT AND, KAMALA HARRIS WALKING AWAY FROM HER PREVIOUS POSITIONS. I THINK IT IS SHE IS SEASONED. SHE'S, YOU KNOW, HAS A LONG HISTORY OF A POLITICAL CAREER. SHE SHOULD READY FOR THIS. I MEAN, THE HARRIS CAMPAIGN KEEPS NOTING THAT SHE'S ONLY BEEN THE NOMINEE FOR A FEW WEEKS, BUT SHE'S BEEN VICE PRESIDENT FOR THREE AND A HALF YEARS. SO SHE SHOULD BE WELL VERSED ON POLICIES THAT ARE FRANKLY VERY UNPOPULAR AND HURTING THE AMERICAN. >> AND WE'LL SEE HOW SHE DEFENDS THOSE. MARCIA? 2016 PRESIDENTIAL CANDIDATE HILLARY CLINTON OFFERED HARRIS SOME TIPS GIVEN HER EXPERIENCE DEBATING TRUMP. AND AMONG OTHER THINGS, SHE SAID HE CAN BE RATTLED AND THAT HE DOESN'T KNOW HOW TO RESPOND TO SUBSTANTIVE ATTACKS. HOW DO YOU EXPECT HARRIS TO TRY TO USE THAT ADVICE? >> WELL, I THINK THAT SHE WILL DO WHAT SHE'S DONE IN PRIOR DEBATES. SHE THINKS REALLY QUICKLY ON HER FEET. SHE'S BEEN A PROSECUTOR. AND SO SHE'S GOT THAT EXPERIENCE SO SHE KNOWS HOW HOW TO POINT THINGS OUT. I DON'T THINK SHE'S GOING TO SPEND ALL OF HER TIME FACT CHECKING THE FORMER PRESIDENT, WHICH WILL BE A FULL TIME JOB. BUT JUST EXPLAINING HER POLICIES. AND I DO THINK THAT HE DOES BECOME RATTLED LIKE WE SAW ALL WEEKEND. HE'S BEEN TWEETING A LOWERING EXPECTATIONS AND INSULTING PEOPLE. BUT -- BUT WHAT WE HAVEN'T SEEN ARE HIS POLICIES AND WHAT HE THINKS ABOUT WHAT'S ACTUALLY AFFECTING THE AMERICAN PEOPLE. THE OTHER DAY HE GOT A QUESTION ON CHILD CARE, WHICH IS MOST PEOPLE'S, INCLUDING MINE. A NUMBER ONE EXPENSE. >> AND HE COULDN'T ANSWER IT. HE SAID CHILDCARE IS CHILDCARE . SO WE DON'T KNOW WHAT THAT MEANS. WE DON'T KNOW WHAT HIS POLICIES ARE. ALL WE KNOW THAT HE'S STILL FOCUSED ON THE 2020 ELECTION AND HE DOESN'T REALLY HAVE ANY GOOD SOLUTIONS. SO VICE PRESIDENT HARRIS IS GOING TO BE BUILDING UPON WHAT THEY HAVE DONE IN THE BIDEN, WHICH IS BASICALLY BUILDING BACK ALL THE POLICIES THAT WERE TORN, TORN DOWN BY THE TRUMP ADMINISTRATION. AND WE'LL SEE TOMORROW NIGHT AND WATCH WHAT VOTERS ARE ACTUALLY FOCUSED ON. >> ALL RIGHT WE HAVE TO LEAVE IT THERE. >> ALEXA HENNING, MARSHA ESPINOSA, THANK YOU BOTH . >> AND THE FIRST PRESIDENTIAL DEBATE BETWEEN FORMER PRESIDENT TRUMP AND VICE PRESIDENT HARRIS IS TOMORROW NIGHT. YOU CAN WATCH IT RIGHT HERE ON ABC NEWS LIVE WITH COVERAGE STARTING AT 9 P.M. EASTERN. >> AND AN URGENT MANHUNT IS UNDERWAY FOR A SUSPECT ACCUSED OF SHOOTING CARS ON A KENTUCKY INTERSTATE. AUTHORITIES ARE SEARCHING THAT RUGGED TERRAIN IN SOUTHEASTERN KENTUCKY FOR 32-YEAR-OLD JOSEPH COUCH. THEY SAY HE OPENED FIRE ON INTERSTATE 75 OUTSIDE LONDON, KENTUCKY, ON SATURDAY NIGHT, INJURING FIVE PEOPLE. LET'S BRING IN ABC NEWS ALEX PRESHA LIVE IN LONDON, KENTUCKY, AND FORMER FBI AGENT, ABC NEWS CONTRIBUTOR BRAD GARRETT FOR MORE. ALEX, WHAT'S THE LATEST ON THIS INVESTIGATION AND THE SUSPECT OVERSEEING THIS INVESTIGATION? >> JUST TO GIVE YOU A SENSE AS TO HOW THIS HAS BEEN PLAYING OUT, USUALLY THEY STAGE RIGHT BEFORE 9 A.M. AND THEN AROUND NINE THEY GO BACK INTO THOSE WOODS. LISTEN, THE LAST COUPLE OF NIGHTS THEY HAVE SEARCHED BASICALLY UNTIL THEY DEEMED IT WAS TOO UNSAFE TO SEARCH YOU. IT PRETTY DARK IN THIS PART OF THE COUNTRY, ESPECIALLY ONCE THE SUN GOES DOWN. THEY'LL CREATE A PERIMETER. THEY HAVE REASON. THEY BELIEVE THIS SUSPECT, 32-YEAR-OLD JOSEPH COUCHES, IS IN. AND THEN THEY'LL THEY'LL THEY'LL THEY'LL THEY'LL REGROUP THE MORNING. BUT A COUPLE OF THINGS THAT WE'VE NOTED ABOUT THIS SEARCH AREA. NUMBER ONE, DIANE, IT'S REALLY, REALLY RUGGED TERRAIN. A STATE TROOPER LAST NIGHT DESCRIBED IT AS TROMPING THROUGH THE JUNGLE. YOU NEED A MACHETE TO WHACK DOWN A BRUSH HEAD AT TIMES. THE OTHER THING THAT'S ONE OF THE LAUREL COUNTY OR EXCUSE ME, ONE OF THE LONDON POLICE, A SHERIFF'S DEPUTIES TOLD US, IS THAT THERE'S ALSO EXTENSIVE SYSTEM OF CAVERNS HERE. AND THAT IS ALSO THAT THEY'RE DEALING WITH SEARCHING. >> AND ALEX, THIS AREA OF SOUTHEASTERN KENTUCKY, IS VERY RUGGED AND FULL OF CAVES. SO HOW CHALLENGING IS THAT FOR THE AUTHORITIES THERE RIGHT NOW ? >> WELL, IT'S EXTREMELY CHALLENGING. SOME OF THE LAW ENFORCEMENT HAS TOLD US THAT, LOOK, I MEAN, THERE ARE TIMES WHERE THEY LITERALLY HAVE TO TAKE IT A FEW FEET AT A TIME BECAUSE IT'S SO DENSE WITH TREES. THIS SUSPECT COULD BE HIDING ON THE BACKSIDE OF ONE OF THESE TREES OR UNDER A LEDGE OR UNDER UNDER ONE OF THE CLIFFS. AND SO, YOU KNOW, OUT OF CONCERN FOR THEIR SAFETY, BUT ALSO JUST TRYING TO BE FAIR ,THEY REALLY HAVE TO TAKE THEIR TIME WITH THIS SEARCH. >> BRAD, WHAT'S PROCESS LIKE TO CONDUCT A SEARCH LIKE THIS IN AN AREA LIKE THIS? SO YOU HAVE TO IT'S SLOW AND GO BECAUSE THE WAY IT'S BEEN DESCRIBED WITH POTENTIAL CAVE OR TUNNEL SYSTEM AND VERY DENSE UNDERBRUSH IS THAT YOU MAY JUST WALK UPON THE PERSON YOU'RE LOOKING FOR. IT'S THE BIGGEST RISK. AND THAT'S WHY THEY DON'T TO DO IT AT NIGHT. AND SO I WOULD THINK ONE OF THE KEYS IS THE FOLLOWING IS TO FIND SOMEBODY THAT'S AN EXPERT ON THE TUNNELS AND CAVES IN THIS PARTICULAR AREA AROUND LONDON, KENTUCKY. FOR ONE THING, THE OTHER IS IN INTERVIEWS ABOUT THE SUSPECT DOES HE HAVE FAMILIAR PLACES? I MEAN, MY SENSE WOULD, BASED ON WHERE HE CONDUCTED THIS SHOOTING, IS THAT HE KNOWS THE AREA TO SOME EXTENT. AND IS AN AREA HE IS FROM THAT HE GOES TO AS PERHAPS AND MAYBE FOCUS ON THAT AREA. THAT'S REALLY GOING TO BE THE KEY, ASSUMING THAT THEY THINK HE STILL AS MENTIONED INSIDE THIS PERIMETER, WHICH MAY OR MAY NOT BE. >> SO, BRAD, WHAT ARE YOU LISTENING FOR AS WE WAIT TO HEAR ABOUT A POSSIBLE MOTIVE HERE? YOU KNOW, OBVIOUSLY, TO CATCH HIM IS THE REAL. BUT YOU KNOW, THE PROBLEM, DIANE, WITH THESE SHOOTERS AND TYPICALLY IT'S INTERSTATE SHOOTERS IS THEY'RE SORT OF ALL OVER THE MAP ON MOTIVE. I MEAN, YOU KNOW, RAGE IS PROBABLY DRIVING MOST OF IT ,BUT THAT'S JUST NOT ENOUGH. >> IS THERE SOMETHING ELSE? AND THERE'S TWO INTERESTING OTHER THINGS ABOUT THIS PARTICULAR SUSPECT IS HE LEAVES HIS CAR AND HE LEAVES THE WEAPON IN PLACES THAT. OBVIOUSLY, THE POLICE WILL FIND IN FAIRLY SHORT ORDER. SO WHAT DOES THAT MEAN, THAT HE WALK OFF? DID HE HAVE ANOTHER CAR? IS HE IN A CAVE. IT MAY GO TO MINDSET HERE. YOU KNOW, IS HE STILL ALIVE? I MEAN, ALL OF THESE THINGS ARE GOING TO PLAY INTO AND WHERE HE MIGHT BE. AND IF IN FACT, HE HAS HARMED HIMSELF. MY GUESS IS HE MAY WELL BE NOT FAR FROM WHERE HIS CAR AND WEAPON WERE FOUND. ALL RIGHT, ALEX PRESHA BRAD GARRETT, THANK YOU BOTH. COMING UP, A MASSIVE WILDFIRE ACROSS SOUTHERN CALIFORNIA. >> THE AREA IS BEING AND WHAT FIREFIGHTERS SAY IS MAKING THIS FIRE SO HARD TO CONTROL. >> WHENEVER NEWS BREAKS, WE ARE HERE IN ISRAEL, A NATION AT WAR. >> THAT BRUTAL SURPRISE ATTACK BY HAMAS ON THE GROUND IN UKRAINE FROM LEWISTON, MAINE, THE SCENE OF A HORRIFIC MASS SHOOTING, ABC NEWS LIVE IS RIGHT THERE.

THE ABC NEWS PRESIDENTIAL DEBATE MODERATED BY DAVID MUIR AND LINSEY DAVIS TOMORROW NIGHT LIVE ON ABC AND STREAMING ON ABC NEWS LIVE, HULU AND DISNEY PLUS THE ABC NEWS PRESIDENTIAL DEBATE. >> WELCOME BACK TO ABC NEWS LIVE. FIRST, MILLIONS ALONG THE GULF COAST ARE FACING THE THREAT OF A POSSIBLE HURRICANE. >> THE SYSTEM COULD SOON BECOME TROPICAL STORM FRANCINE AND IS FORECAST TO BECOME A HURRICANE . IT REACHES THE NORTHWESTERN GULF COAST NEXT WEEK. IT COULD BRING UP TO 12 INCHES OF RAIN TO PORTIONS OF TEXAS AND LOUISIANA. MEANWHILE, HIGH WINDS AND RECORD TEMPS ARE FUELING THE FAST GROWING LINE WILDFIRE IN CALIFORNIA. IT'S ALREADY BURNED MORE THAN 20,000 ACRES IN LESS THAN FOUR DAYS. ABC'S MOLA LENGHI HAS MORE. >> THOUSANDS OF PEOPLE IN CALIFORNIA EVACUATE FROM THEIR HOMES AS A MASSIVE WILDFIRE RAVAGES THE REGION. I DON'T. THE HOUSE BURNS DOWN, BUT NOT WITHIN A MINUTE. THE LINE FIRE BURNING THROUGH MORE THAN 20,000 ACRES AND INJURING THREE FIREFIGHTERS. ASH AND SMOKE STRETCHING AS FAR AS THE EYE CAN SEE. >> YOU CAN SEE BY ALL THIS SCORCHED EARTH, THOUSANDS OF ACRES HERE IN SAN BERNARDINO COUNTY HAVE ALREADY BURNED WITH THOUSANDS OF HOMES AND BUSINESSES AND STRUCTURES BEING THREATENED. >> EVACUATIONS ARE UNDERWAY. AUTHORITIES DOWN PART OF CALIFORNIA'S STATE ROUTE 38 DUE TO THAT SAME FIRE IN L.A. COUNTY. THE BRIDGE FIRE GROWING TO AROUND 800 ACRES IN SIZE. FIREFIGHTERS DESPERATELY TRYING HOLD BACK THE INFERNO. HELICOPTERS AND PLANES FLYING OVER, FLAMES DROPPING WATER AND FIRE RETARDANT TO BEAT BACK THE BLAZE. MEANWHILE, IN NORTHERN CALIFORNIA, AUTHORITIES RACING SHEPHERD RESIDENTS TO SAFETY AS THE BOILS FIRE CAUSES MANDATORY AND EVACUATE ALL OF 18TH AVENUE FROM HIGHWAY 53 ALL THE WAY EAST. RECORD BREAKING TEMPERATURES, DRY VEGETATION AND GUSTY WINDS CREATING THE PERFECT ENVIRONMENT FOR WILDFIRES LIKE THESE TO GROW OUT OF CONTROL. >> WE HAVE NOT ONLY THE HEAT WAVE, WE'RE GETTING THESE THUNDERSTORMS THAT CREATE THEIR OWN WEATHER AND BLOW THE FIRE IN ALL DIFFERENT DIRECTIONS. >> WELL EXTREME TEMPERATURES OVER THE LAST FEW DAYS HAVE MADE CONDITIONS HERE ON THE GROUND FOR FIREFIGHTERS EXTREMELY CHALLENGING. TRIPLE DIGIT TEMPERATURES, THAT EXTREME HEAT EXPECTED TO CONTINUE TODAY BEFORE THE REGION FINALLY GETS A BREAK THE REST OF THE WEEK. >> DIANE. MOLA LENGHI, THANK YOU. AND FOR MORE ON THOSE WILDFIRES AND THE HURRICANE THREAT FACING THE GULF COAST, LET'S BRING IN ABC NEWS METEOROLOGIST SOMARA THEODORE THOMAS. WALK US THROUGH WHAT CAN WE EXPECT HERE? WELL, A FEW THINGS, DIANE. THAT HEAT IS PERSISTING AT LEAST THROUGH TODAY. IN FACT, IN LOS ANGELES ON FRIDAY, 112 DEGREES, ONE DEGREE AWAY FROM THEIR ALL TIME HOTTEST TEMPERATURE EVER. SO THAT IS ONLY HELPING THINGS TO STAY DRY. WE'VE ALSO SEEN PRETTY LOW HUMIDITY, EVERYTHING WE NEED FOR THESE WILDFIRES TO CONTINUE TO GROW. >> I'M SORRY. EXCUSE ME. NOW, THE OTHER THING I WANTED TO NOTE IS THE SHIFT IN WINDS THAT'S COMING. IT'S GOOD FOR US. IT'S GOOD NEWS. WE'RE GETTING SOME COOLER AIR MOVING INTO THE WEST. BUT AS WE SEE THESE WINDS SHIFT NOW THROUGH TUESDAY AND INTO WEDNESDAY, THAT COULD IMPACT THE DIRECTION THAT THE FIRES ARE BURNING. RIGHT. AND CHANGE DIRECTION. SO THAT'S SOMETHING TO BE VERY MINDFUL OF IN A LOT OF AREAS THAT ARE STILL UNDER RED FLAG WARNINGS GOING BACK TO THE HEAT. MUCH OF THE WEST IS WONDERING, ARE WE GETTING THE REPRIEVE? WE'LL LOOK AT HOW BIG OF A DIP WE'RE COMING OFF OF. SO WE'RE COMING FROM TRIPLE DIGITS IN PLACES LIKE LOS ANGELES. BY WEDNESDAY, 77 DEGREES. THURSDAY, 75 DEGREES. BOISE ON, TUESDAY IN THE NINETIES. BY WEDNESDAY IN THE LOW 7060S. BY THURSDAY. SO A WILD TEMPERATURE SPRING CHANGE, I'M SORRY, IS UNDERWAY FOR THE WEST. NOW LET'S TALK TROPICS BECAUSE THIS IS A DEVELOPING THAT I MUST BRING YOU UP TO SPEED ON, ESPECIALLY IF YOU LIVE ALONG THE LOUISIANA COASTLINE AND THE TEXAS COASTLINE, SPECIFICALLY EASTERN TEXAS. SO WHAT WE HAVE HERE IS POTENTIAL TROPICAL CYCLONE SIX. ONCE IT BECOMES A NAMED STORM, IT WILL BE CALLED FRANCINE. FRANCINE'S PROJECTED TRAJECTORY RIGHT NOW, HAS IT MOVING ANYWHERE IN THIS CONE OF UNCERTAINTY SO IT COULD MAKE LANDFALL IN THAT FAR EASTERN OF TEXAS THROUGH LAKE CHARLES, PRETTY CLOSE TO NEW ORLEANS. THERE NOTICE HOW IT'S ANTICIPATED TO STRENGTHEN FROM WHAT IT IS NOW A TROPICAL STORM AND THEN POTENTIALLY A CATEGORY ONE HURRICANE. BY THE TIME MAKES LANDFALL. >> WHEN WILL IT MAKE LANDFALL? WELL, HERE'S A LOOK. FUTURE CAST ON SHOWS AT 12 P.M. TOMORROW, CENTRAL TIME. WE'RE ALREADY SEEING OUTER BANDS WHIP FROM GALVESTON RIGHT ON INTO CORPUS CHRISTI. SO RAIN ARRIVES AS EARLY AS TUESDAY. THE CORE OF THE STORM IS MAKING A RUN RIGHT NOW JUST BETWEEN CHARLES AND NEW ORLEANS. >> ANYWHERE BETWEEN, YOU KNOW, WEDNESDAY AND THURSDAY, SO LATE WEDNESDAY INTO THURSDAY IS WHEN WE ANTICIPATING THAT LANDFALL. AND THIS IS GOING TO BE SOMETHING WE CONTINUE WATCH, DIANE, WITH THE TEMPERATURES, THE SEA SURFACE TEMPERATURES AS WARM AS THEY ARE IN THAT PART OF THE GULF. WE ARE CONCERNED ABOUT RAPID INTENSIFICATION. SO THIS COULD STRENGTHEN FAIRLY QUICKLY AND BE A RELATIVELY IMPACTFUL, ESPECIALLY WHEN IT COMES TO FLOODING ALONG THE LOUISIANA COASTLINE. DIANE ALL RIGHT. ABC NEWS METEOROLOGIST AMARA THEODOROU, THANK YOU. COMING UP. >> EUGENE LEVY AND DAN LEVY ARE HOSTING THE EMMYS.

I THINK YOU WERE FORTUNATE ENOUGH TO HAVE A KIND OF CHEMISTRY THAT WORKS ON AN AWARD SHOW. >> WAS IT THE SAME CHEMISTRY YOU HAD GROWING JUST AS FATHER AND SON, OR WAS IT SOMETHING THAT YOU FOUND IN TERMS OF PERFORMING? >> HE FOUND IT AT SOME POINT. HE FOUND HIS COMEDIC VOICE AT SOME POINT, AND HE WAS ABLE TO PUT THE FAMILY AWAY WITH LIKE A SINGLE WORD OR PHRASE AND IN PARTICULAR WORK. >> I CAN'T REMEMBER NOW, BUT I DO REMEMBER USING HAVING AN UNDERSTANDING OF WHAT REALLY KIND OF PUSHED MY DAD TO THE EDGE, USING THAT IN OUR SHOW AS MUCH AS I POSSIBLY COULD. >> WHAT KINDS OF THINGS WOULD THOSE BE?

THE NEWS PRESIDENTIAL DEBATE MODERATED BY DAVID MUIR AND TOMORROW NIGHT LIVE ON ABC AND STREAMING ON ABC NEWS LIVE, HULU AND DISNEY. PLUS THE ABC NEWS PRESIDENTIAL DEBATE. WELCOME BACK TO ABC NEWS LIVE. FIRST, THANKS FOR STREAMING WITH US. YOU'RE LOOKING AT PHILADELPHIA THIS MONDAY AND WE HAVE A LOT OF NEWS TO GET TO. HERE'S A RUNDOWN RIGHT NOW. THE ISRAELI DEFENSE FORCES ARE REPORTING AN AERIAL INFILTRATION ATTACK IN NORTHERN ISRAEL. THE IDF SAYS TWO SUSPICIOUS AERIAL DEVICES CROSSED INTO ISRAELI TERRITORY FROM LEBANON, BUT THAT NO ONE WAS INJURED. ISRAELI MEDIA REPORTS A DRONE DETONATED CRASHING INTO AN APARTMENT BLOCK. MEANWHILE, SYRIAN STATE MEDIA REPORTS, AT LEAST FOUR PEOPLE ARE DEAD AFTER ISRAEL LAUNCHED STRIKES ON CENTRAL SYRIA. THOSE STRIKES REPORTEDLY WOUNDED 13 OTHERS, SPARKED FIRES AND DAMAGED A HIGHWAY. ISRAEL HAS NOT COMMENTED ON THE STRIKES ISRAEL AND JORDAN HAVE PARTIALLY REOPENED AFTER CLOSING DUE TO AN ATTACK THAT KILLED THREE POLICE OFFICERS. JURY SELECTION BEGINS TODAY IN THE TRIAL OF THREE FORMER MEMPHIS POLICE OFFICERS CHARGED IN THE DEATH OF TYREE NICHOLS. NICHOLS DIED LAST YEAR AFTER BEING PULLED OVER AND FROM POLICE WHO CAUGHT AND BEAT HIM. POLICE VIDEO SHOWED HIM YELLING FOR HIS MOTHER. HE DIED THREE DAYS LATER IN THE HOSPITAL. OFFICERS TO DARIUS BEING DEMETRIUS, HALEY AND JUSTIN SMITH, CHARGED WITH DEPRIVING NICHOLS OF HIS CIVIL RIGHTS. THEY HAVE PLEADED GUILTY. EGGS ARE BEING RECALLED AMID A OUTBREAK IN NINE STATES THAT HAS LEFT AT LEAST 65 PEOPLE INFECTED. MOST VICTIMS ARE IN WISCONSIN, AND OFFICIALS SAY THE TAINTED EGGS WERE SOLD UNDER THE BRANDS MILO'S POULTRY FARMS AND TONY'S FRESH MARKET. THE CDC IS ADVISING ANYONE WHO ATE THOSE EGGS AND IS EXPERIENCING SYMPTOMS TO CONTACT A HEALTH CARE PROVIDER. U.S. SOCCER STAR ALEX MORGAN IS LEAVING IT ALL ON FIELD AFTER ANNOUNCING HER RETIREMENT IN THE 13TH MINUTE OF THE GAME IN HONOR OF HER JERSEY NUMBER 13. MORGAN TOOK OFF HER CLEATS AND MADE HER FINAL WALK TO THE SIDELINE. MORGAN'S NEARLY 14 YEAR CAREER INCLUDE A 224 APPEARANCES FOR THE NATIONAL TEAM, 123 INTERNATIONAL GOALS, TWO WORLD CUP TITLES AND AN OLYMPIC GOLD MEDAL. ALEX MORGAN AND HER HUSBAND ARE EXPECTING THEIR SECOND CHILD. AND VICE PRESIDENT HARRIS AND FORMER PRESIDENT TRUMP ARE SET TO FACE OFF ON THE DEBATE STAGE FOR THE FIRST TIME TOMORROW NIGHT. HARRIS SAYS SHE'S READY AFTER HUNKERING DOWN FOR INTENSE DEBATE PREP. MEANWHILE, TRUMP BEEN HOLDING INFORMAL POLICY SESSIONS WITH A SMALL TEAM OF ADVISERS FIRING OFF VARIOUS QUESTIONS AT HIM FOR HIS STANCES AND LEGAL TROUBLES. ABC'S JAY O'BRIEN JOINS ME NOW FROM PHILADELPHIA FOR ON THAT. JAY THE STAGE IS SET NOW. SO WHAT'S AT STAKE HERE FOR BOTH CANDIDATES. I MEAN THE STAKES COULD NOT BE HIGHER. DIANE, IF YOU THINK ABOUT THE LAST TIME THERE WAS A DEBATE IN THIS PRESIDENTIAL CYCLE, THERE WERE TWO DIFFERENT CANDIDATES ON THAT STAGE IN THAT DEBATE. AND PRESIDENT BIDEN'S PERFORMANCE IN IT LITERALLY REWROTE THE ENTIRE STORY OF THIS RACE. THE STAKES COULDN'T BE HIGHER. IS GOING TO BE A TEST REALLY FOR BOTH CANDIDATES OF THEIR KIND PUNCHING AND COUNTERPUNCHING STYLE. THESE ARE BOTH DEBATERS LIKE TO COME ON TO THE STAGE WITH GUNS BLAZING. WE'VE SEEN THAT IN FORMER PRESIDENT TRUMP'S POLITICAL HISTORY. THINKING BACK TO HIS DEBATES WITH SECRETARY CLINTON IN THE 2016 ELECTION. WITH KAMALA HARRIS, WE'VE SEEN THAT OR THE OF HER ENTIRE POLITICAL CAREER AS WELL. THINK BACK TO THOSE DEBATES IN THE 2020 CYCLE, THE DEMOCRATIC PRIMARY DEBATES IN WHICH SHE WAS RESPONSIBLE FOR REALLY A NUMBER OF ATTACK LINES AGAINST THEN CANDIDATE JOE BIDEN. NOW PRESIDENT BIDEN, FOR WHOM SHE SERVED AS VICE PRESIDENT. SO THESE ARE BOTH CANDIDATES WHO LIKE TO PUNCH, WHO LIKE TO COUNTERPUNCH. THOSE STYLES WILL BE TESTED WHEN THEY MEET HEAD ON HEAD. THEY HAVE NEVER EVEN BEEN IN THE SAME ROOM TOGETHER. THEY'VE NEVER MET IN. AND ALSO, THE RULES ARE GOING TO PLAY A FACTOR IN ALL OF THIS, PARTICULARLY MICROPHONES, WHEN WE TALK ABOUT THAT PUNCHING AND COUNTERPUNCHING STYLE. ONE OF THE RULES THAT BOTH CAMPAIGNS HAVE AGREED TO IS THAT THE MICROPHONES WILL BE MUTED WHEN IT IS NOT THAT CANDIDATE'S TURN TO SPEAK, SO THAT SOMETIMES HAMPERS THE ABILITY TO COUNTERPUNCH IT IN THE EYES OF THE HARRIS CAMPAIGN. IT ALSO HAMPERS THE ABILITY FOR AMERICANS TO HEAR SOME OF THE FREE WHEELING OFF THE CUFF THINGS THAT DONALD TRUMP SAYS. BUT NO DOUBT, VICE PRESIDENT IS STILL GOING TO TRY TO MAKE NOTE OF THAT. >> AND FORMER DEMOCRATIC AND TRUMP ADVISER TULSI GABBARD SAID ON FOX NEWS TODAY THAT KAMALA HARRIS SHOULD NOT BE UNDERESTIMATED. SHE STRESSED THE SOLID DEBATE PREP THAT HARRIS HAS BEEN DOING AND HOW SERIOUSLY SHE'S THE DEBATE. IS THE TRUMP CAMPAIGN TRYING TO TEMPER EXPECTATIONS HERE? THE EXPECTATIONS GAME IS INTERESTING WITH THE EXPECTATIONS GAME AS IT RELATES TO PRESIDENT BIDEN. FOR INSTANCE, THEY LOWERED EXPECTATIONS SO LOW THAT PRESIDENT BIDEN COULD HAVE REALLY DONE A LOT TO CLEAR THOSE EXPECTATIONS. AND EVEN THEN, HE DIDN'T. HERE WHAT THEY'RE DOING IS RAISING, IN A WAY, EXPECTATIONS ABOUT KAMALA, TALKING ABOUT HER STYLE IN THE COURTROOM. AT LEAST TRUMP'S ORBIT IS DOING THAT WHEN IT COMES TO FORMER PRESIDENT TRUMP. HE DOESN'T NECESSARILY THAT FAR AS TO PRAISE HIS RIVAL THE WAY HE SOMETIMES TRIED TO DO WITH JOE BIDEN, TRY TO RAISE THAT EXPECTATIONS BAR. BUT WHEN IT COMES TO TULSI GABBARD, THERE'S ONE MORE THING TO KEEP IN MIND HERE, WHICH IS SHE IS A WINDOW INTO HOW THE TRUMP CAMPAIGN AND FORMER PRESIDENT TRUMP SPECIFICALLY ARE GOING TO TREAT THIS DEBATE. THINK BACK TO 2019. IT WAS TULSI GABBARD WHO HAD THE STRONGEST ATTACK LINES AGAINST KAMALA HARRIS WHEN THEY WERE ON THAT DEMOCRATIC PRIMARY STAGE TOGETHER, TALKING ABOUT HARRIS' CAREER AS A PROSECUTOR. SO WITH TULSI GABBARD IN THE ROOM ADVISING TRUMP, IT GIVES, YOU PERHAPS A WINDOW INTO HIS THINKING GOING INTO TOMORROW NIGHT. ALL JAY O'BRIEN THANK YOU. >> AND THE FIRST PRESIDENTIAL DEBATE BETWEEN FORMER PRESIDENT TRUMP AND VICE PRESIDENT HARRIS TOMORROW NIGHT. YOU CAN WATCH IT RIGHT HERE ON ABC NEWS LIVE WITH COVERAGE STARTING AT 9 P.M. EASTERN. >> AND AN INVESTIGATION IS UNDERWAY, A CHAOTIC START TO THE SEASON FOR MIAMI DOLPHINS.

THE SUSPECT'S AND TELLS ABC NEWS HIS MOTHER CALLED THE HIGH SCHOOL ON THE MORNING OF THE SHOOTING TO WARN A COUNSELOR OF A QUOTE EXTREME EMERGENCY HER SON. NOW SHE'S EXPRESSING FRUSTRATION THAT THE SCHOOL TO PREVENT THE TRAGEDY. ABC'S FAITH ABUBEY HAS MORE. >> NEW QUESTIONS ABOUT WHETHER THERE WERE MISSED SIGNS AHEAD OF A GEORGIA SCHOOL SHOOTING THAT KILLED FOUR PEOPLE AND INJURED NINE OTHERS. >> THE SCHOOL IS SUPPOSED TO BE A SAFE PLACE FOR KIDS. >> THE ACCUSED GUNMAN'S AUNT TELLING ABC NEWS ROUGHLY 30 MINUTES BEFORE THE SHOOTING AT APALACHEE HIGH SCHOOL IN. WINDER COURT, GRAY'S MOTHER CALLED A SCHOOL COUNSELOR TO WARN OF AN EXTREME EMERGENCY. HIS MOTHER, MARCI GRAY, SPEAKING TO NEWS OVERNIGHT, SAYING SHE TRIED TO GET HIM THE HELP HE NEEDED. OH, OH, OH. THE AUNT TELLING "THE WASHINGTON POST" THAT DURING THE TEN MINUTE CONVERSATION, A SCHOOL COUNSELOR TOLD MARCI GRAY THAT HER HAD SPOKEN ABOUT A SCHOOL SHOOTING THE SAMHE SAME MORNING. CLASSMATE LELA SCIARRA TELLING ABC NEWS THAT A SCHOOL ADMINISTRATOR CONFISCATED A BACKPACK OF A STUDENT WITH A SIMILAR NAME. >> A LITTLE BIT LATER. HE CAME BACK IN WITH HIS BAG AND HE SAID THAT THEY WEREN'T LOOKING FOR HIM. >> THEY WERE LOOKING FOR COATS. MOMENTS LATER, THE ACCUSED TEENAGER OPENED FIRE OUTSIDE THE CLASSROOM DOOR. DIANE, THE ALLEGED SHOOTER AND HIS FATHER ARE BOTH FACING MULTIPLE FELONY CHARGES RELATED TO THIS MASS SHOOTING. THEY HAVE NOT ENTERED A PLEA IN COURT. IN THE MEANTIME, SCHOOL DISTRICT OFFICIALS ARE NOT COMMENTING ON THE FAMILY'S CLAIMS THAT THEY WERE WARNED. BUT THE COUNTY SHERIFF TELLS IT'S MISINFORMATION. >> DIANE. ABC'S FAITH ABUBEY. THANK YOU. AND A TRIAL BEGINS TODAY IN A NEW ANTITRUST LAWSUIT THAT COULD BREAK UP GOOGLE. THE JUSTICE DEPARTMENT IS ACCUSING THE COMPANY OF A MONOPOLY OVER ITS ADVERTISING TECHNOLOGY. THE TRIAL COMES A MONTH AFTER A JUDGE RULED GOOGLE'S SEARCH ENGINE IS AN ILLEGAL MONOPOLY. ABC NEWS LEGAL CONTRIBUTOR BRIAN BUCKMIRE JOINS ME NOW FOR MORE ON THAT. >> BRIAN, GOOD MORNING. THE JUSTICE DEPARTMENT ARGUES THAT IS ALLOWS IT TO CHARGE EXCESSIVE FEES FOR ADS ON ITS PLATFORM. BUT GOOGLE SAYS THE GOVERNMENT'S CASE IS TOO FOCUSED ON DESKTOP ADS AND DOESN'T TAKE INTO ACCOUNT MOBILE APPS SOCIAL MEDIA. >> WHAT DO YOU MAKE OF BOTH OF THOSE ARGUMENTS. >> GOOD MORNING TO YOU AND I THINK IT'S A GOOD ARGUMENT AND COULD BE ONE THAT IF GOOGLE LOSES, COULD IMPACT OVERALL DAMAGES OF THE CASE, SAYING THAT WE ONLY FOCUS ON THIS SMALL SECTION AND NOT THE LARGER IMPACT OF IT. BUT I THINK GOOGLE HAS TO STEP UP THEIR ARGUMENT A LITTLE BIT MORE AND ADDRESS SOME OF THE ISSUES THAT THE DOJ IS ARGUING PRIMARILY, THAT THEY'RE ACQUIRING COMPETITION. THEY ARE FORCING THE ADOPTION OF THEIR GOOGLE TOOLS, KIND OF AN ALL OR NOTHING TYPE OF METHOD THAT THEY'RE DISRUPTING THE AUCTION COMPETITION AND MANIPULATING THAT AUCTION. IN THE DOJ IS FILING, THEY ACTUALLY QUOTE AN AD EXACT THAT WHAT GOOGLE IS DOING IN CONTROLLING THE BUYING AND SELLING AND USE OF THIS AD TECHNOLOGY WOULD BE LIKE IF GOLDMAN OR CITIBANK OWNED THE NEW YORK STOCK EXCHANGE. SO THEY HAVE TO DO A LITTLE BIT MORE THAN JUST MAKE A SMALL ARGUMENT. >> SO HOW SIGNIFICANT IS IT THAT A JUDGE HAS ALREADY DECLARED GOOGLE SEARCH ENGINE AN MONOPOLY? >> COULD THAT AFFECT THIS CASE? IT SHOULDN'T AFFECT THIS CASE. THERE ARE TWO DIFFERENT CASES ALTOGETHER. ONE ABOUT A SEARCH ENGINE AND ONE ABOUT ADS. HOWEVER, THEY ARE BOTH ANTITRUST CASES, THE SAME SECTION OF THE SHERMAN ACT. AND SO SOME OF THE ARGUMENTS THAT WE GOOGLE PROBABLY MAKING IN THIS CASE SEEM TO HAVE ALREADY FAILED IN THE FIRST ONE. SO I THINK IN TERMS OF FACT, THEY SHOULD LEARN FROM MISTAKES AND LOOK TO VENTURE INTO OTHER AREAS THAT THEY CAN ARGUE. SO WHAT'S AT STAKE FOR GOOGLE HERE? >> A LOT, BOTH IN TERMS OF DOLLAR AMOUNTS AND LITIGATION THERE. THE DOJ IS FOCUSING ON TRYING TO DIVEST GOOGLE'S AD MANAGER SUITE. THAT'S WHAT ALLOWS PEOPLE TO BE ABLE TO BUY AND SELL AD SPACE. AND JUST IN THE SECOND QUARTER ALONE, THE DOJ SAYS THAT GOOGLE MADE $7.4 BILLION. SO A VERY LARGE PRICE TAG THERE. BUT ALSO, IF THE DOJ WINS, WOULD EXPECT ADVERTISERS WHO ARE AFFECTED BY THIS TO ALSO START THEIR OWN CASE AGAINST GOOGLE. AND YOU MIGHT SEE THE FLOODGATES, SO TO SPEAK, OPEN UP THERE. AND IN AN ANTITRUST CASE, IT'S ALWAYS SMART TO REMEMBER THAT WHEN PEOPLE SUE, THEY LOOK FOR TREBLE DAMAGES. >> SO TRIPLE THE AMOUNT THAT THEY LOST. ALL RIGHT. ABC NEWS LEGAL CONTRIBUTOR BRIAN BUCKMIRE. THANK YOU. >> COMING UP, KENDRICK LAMAR IS SET TO HEADLINE THE BIGGEST OF THE YEAR.

YOU'RE WATCHING AMERICA'S NUMBER ONE STREAMING NEWS. >> ABC NEWS LIVE. LIVE. FIRST FOOTBALL IS BACK AND THE FIRST NFL SUNDAY OF THE YEAR IS OFFICIALLY IN THE BOOKS. WE SAW UPSETS WITH THE DOUBLE DIGIT UNDERDOG NEW ENGLAND PATRIOTS TAMING THE CINCINNATI BENGALS AND WE SAW SOME ROOKIES STUMBLE WITH THE NUMBER ONE OVERALL PICK IN THE DRAFT STRUGGLING TO ADJUST TO THE PRO GAME. FOR ALL THAT AND MORE, LET'S BRING IN ESPN SENIOR NFL WRITER FOWLER. JEREMY, THANKS SO MUCH FOR COMING ON. WHAT A WEEK ONE CURIOUS TO KNOW, WHAT ARE YOUR BIGGEST TAKEAWAYS AFTER THE FIRST NFL SUNDAY OF THE YEAR. >> YEAH, THANK YOU FOR HAVING ME. YOU KNOW, AMERICA'S TEAM, THE DALLAS COWBOYS, LOOKS PRETTY DARN GOOD AFTER A OFFSEASON OF TURMOIL AND SOME OF THEIR STAR PLAYERS NOT BEING SIGNED TO THE BIG CONTRACTS UNTIL VERY LATE IN THE DAK PRESCOTT, THE QUARTERBACK SIGNING A $240 MILLION DEAL JUST HOURS BEFORE KICKOFF. THERE WERE QUESTIONS ABOUT WHETHER THE COWBOYS, WHO TRADITIONALLY STRUGGLED IN THE PLAYOFFS, ARE GOING TO BE ABLE TO PUT IT ALL THIS YEAR. WELL, THEY HAD A VERY CONVINCING WIN OVER THE BROWNS, PUTTING UP 33 POINTS. THEY LOOK LIKE THEY'RE GOING TO BE RIGHT IN THE PLAYOFF MIX . THAT STOOD OUT TO ME PLAYING A BROWNS TEAM. THAT IS SORT OF THE OPPOSITE RIGHT NOW, A LITTLE BIT WITH DESHAUN WATSON, A QUARTERBACK. THEY GAVE A LOT OF MONEY TO, HAS STRUGGLED IN THE LAST FEW YEARS, STRUGGLED AGAIN YESTERDAY. SO THE BROWNS NEED HIM TO REALLY PICK UP THE PACE A LITTLE BIT. >> JEREMY ROOKIE STRUGGLED A BIT YESTERDAY PARTICULARLY ROOKIE QUARTERBACK. >> SHOULD THESE TEAMS BE WORRIED? >> I WOULDN'T SAY WORRIED YET. MAYBE A MILD CONCERN BECAUSE YOU WANT TO SEE A LITTLE MORE OUTPUT. YOU KNOW BO NIX THE ROOKIE STARTER IN DENVER JUST OVER THREE YARDS PER PASSING ATTEMPT THAT'S JUST NOT GOING TO GET IT DONE AT THE NFL LEVEL. >> BUT A LOT OF TIMES, YOU KNOW COACHES WILL ALWAYS WARN ME. WEEK ONE, WEEK TWO, THE DEFENSES ARE USUALLY A LITTLE BIT AHEAD. YOU KNOW, THEY'VE GOT AN ADVANTAGE, THEY'VE GOT MORE EXPERIENCE. AND SO THEY CAN CONFUSE THESE YOUNG QUARTERBACKS. BUT YOU KNOW, YOU GOT CALEB WILLIAMS, THE NUMBER ONE OVERALL PICK THROWING LESS THAN 90 YARDS IN A GAME WHEN YOU TYPICALLY NEED 200 TO 250 YARDS TO WIN AN NFL CONTEST MOST WEEKS. SO IT'S A BIT OF AN ISSUE. AND THEY ALL STRUGGLED A LITTLE BIT. THERE'S A LOT OF TALENT. THIS IS CONSIDERED ONE OF THE BETTER QUARTERBACK CLASSES IN RECENT YEARS WITH SIX OF THE QUARTERBACKS GOING IN THE TOP 12 PICKS BACK IN APRIL'S NFL DRAFT. SO THEY SHOULD GET IT TOGETHER . >> ENOUGH TALENT. WELL, THAT WILL SHINE OVER 17 GAMES. >> AND JEREMY, TONIGHT MIGHT BE THE MOST ANTICIPATED DAY FOOTBALL SINCE THE SUPER BOWL, RIGHT? THE RETURN OF AARON RODGERS, THE JETS TAKE ON THE 40 NINERS AND RODGERS, OF COURSE SUFFERED THIS SEASON ENDING INJURY JUST THREE PLAYS INTO LAST SEASON. WHAT ARE YOU EXPECTING TO SEE TONIGHT. >> YEAH AARON RODGERS RETURN IS PROBABLY THE BEST STORYLINE IN THE NFL. NOW, THIS IS A QUARTERBACK WHO'S NOW 40 YEARS OLD, HAD SOME QUESTIONS ABOUT WHETHER HIS BODY AT THAT AGE COULD RESPOND TO AN ACHILLES TEAR THAT HE HAD TO REHAB FOR MONTHS. AND NOT ONLY HAS HE REHABBED SUCCESSFULLY, BUT HE'S LOOKED REALLY GOOD IN THE PRESEASON AND TRAINING CAMP WITH THE JETS . THIS IS A TEAM THAT TRADITIONALLY HAS STRUGGLED, BUT THEY HAVE A LOT OF TALENT RIGHT NOW AROUND AARON RODGERS. THE QUESTION IS, CAN HE GET AROUND THE POCKET, MOVE AROUND, SHOW HIS MOBILITY AND STILL THROW ON THE RUN LIKE DONE SO SUCCESSFULLY ALL THESE YEARS? WE'LL FIND OUT AGAINST ONE OF THE VERY BEST DEFENSES IN THE NFL, THE 49 OR SO. YOU KNOW, THE JETS ARE GOING TO BE AN OFF SEASON COMPELLING STORYLINE EVERY WEEK OF THE YEAR STARTING TONIGHT. AND AARON RODGERS HAS ALWAYS BEEN PRODUCTIVE. >> SO I'M ASSUMING HE WILL BE TONIGHT. ALL RIGHT. WE'LL SEE HOW HE DOES. SENIOR NFL WRITER JEREMY FOWLER. THANKS, JEREMY. AND AGAIN, AARON RODGERS RETURNS TONIGHT AGAINST THE DEFENDING NFC SAN FRANCISCO 49 ERS MONDAY NIGHT FOOTBALL, EIGHT EASTERN HERE ON ABC AND ESPN AND ANOTHER FOOTBALL NEWS. GRAMMY AWARD WINNER KENDRICK LAMAR IS SET TO POP OUT ON NFL'S BIGGEST STAGE NEXT FEBRUARY AT THE SUPER BOWL IN NEW ORLEANS THEN THAT LIKE US RAPPER TOOK TO SOCIAL MEDIA MAKING THE ANNOUNCEMENT ALONGSIDE THE NFL ROCK NATION AND APPLE MUSIC. LAMAR IS NOW THE ONLY RAPPER TO EVER SOLO HEADLINE THE SUPER BOWL. ABC NEWS CONTRIBUTOR XM RADIO HOST MIKE MUSE IS JOINING ME NOW FOR MORE ON THIS. MIKE, THANKS FOR COMING ON. YOU KNOW KENDRICK LAMAR DOMINATED THIS SUMMER PART DUE TO HIS ONGOING BEEF WITH DRAKE. SO IS IT A RISKY MOVE FOR THE HALFTIME SHOW TO SEEMINGLY LEAN INTO THAT AND APPARENTLY TAKE A SIDE HERE? >> I DON'T KNOW IF IT'S RISKY. THE SENSE OF INDIRECTLY LOOKING AT TAKING HIS SIDE, BUT IT IMPORTANT IN OUR CULTURE AND IF YOU LOOK AT DATA, HIP-HOP IS ONE OF THE MOST CONSUMED GENRES CURRENTLY NOW. AND IF YOU LOOK AT WHAT HAPPENED BETWEEN THE BEEF BETWEEN KENDRICK AND DRAKE, IT REALLY ELEVATED HIP-HOP TO A NEW AUDIENCE AND IT REALLY INFUSED NEW ENERGY INTO HIP-HOP IN PARTICULAR OFF OF THE 50TH ANNIVERSARY OF THAT. SO THE IDEA THAT YOU HAVE PRESUMABLY WHAT EVERYONE SAYS IS THE WINNER, THAT THAT RAP BATTLE WILL BE ON THE LARGEST STAGE WITH THE SUPER BOWL AVERAGING 140 MILLION VIEWS. TO HAVE KENDRICK ON THAT STAGE PERFORMING, IT'S HUGE FOR HIP-HOP IS HUGE FOR THE CULTURE AND IT JUST REFLECTIVE OF JUST BIG THAT MOMENT IS. >> THEY'RE UPSET THAT A NEW ORLEANS NATIVE ISN'T HEADLINING SINCE THAT'S WHERE THE GAME IS TAKING PLACE. LIL WAYNE'S ENGINEER POSTED THAT HE WAS CONFUSED AND ANGRY THAT WAYNE WASN'T CHOSEN. >> WHAT DO YOU MAKE OF THAT AND SOME OF THE NEGATIVE REACTIONS? YEAH, NO, ABSOLUTELY. I UNDERSTAND EXACTLY HOW LITTLE WAYNE IS FEELING. BOTH CAN BE TRUE AND YOU CAN BE UPSET ABOUT LIL WAYNE. >> NOT BEFORE. I FEEL LIKE LIL WAYNE SHOULD BE THERE BECAUSE THAT IS HIS HOME. BUT SUPER BOWL IS ALL ABOUT THE BIG TEAMS. THE TWO BEST TEAMS IN THE NFL GOING HEAD TO HEAD FOR THIS BIG CULTURAL MOMENT. AND SO YOU WANT TO MAKE SURE THAT THE ARTIST THAT IS PERFORMING IS MEET THE MEET THE MOMENT OF THE PLAY ON THE FIELD. AND AT THIS MOMENT CURRENTLY RIGHT NOW, KENDRICK LAMAR IS THE BIGGEST MOMENT THAT WE HAVE RIGHT NOW IN CULTURE AND IN MUSIC FOR WHAT THAT REPRESENTED. SO THAT MADE SENSE FOR THAT SELECTION. SO BOTH CAN BE TRUE AT THE SAME TIME. I DO HOPE THE PRODUCER OF THE HALFTIME SHOW, JESSE COLLINS, FINDS A WAY TO INCLUDE LIL WAYNE IN SOME CAPACITY. DO KNOW HOW THAT WILL BE DONE, BUT IT WILL BE NICE TO SEE. >> ALL RIGHT. YOU'RE KIND OF LEADING ME TO MY NEXT QUESTION IS KENDRICK HAS PERFORMED AT THE SUPER BOWL BEFORE. HE WAS THERE IN 2022 WITH A HOST OF OTHER HIP-HOP LEGENDS. SO LET'S TALK SPECIAL GUEST. WHO DO YOU THINK WE MIGHT SEE PERFORM THIS SIDE KENDRICK THIS TIME AROUND? >> I MEAN, POSSIBLY LIL WAYNE, BUT ALSO TRUE. >> KENDRICK IS SUCH AN ART. HE IS VERY THEATRICAL. IF YOU LOOK AT WHAT HE DID WHEN HE HIS LIVE FROM PARIS CONCERT ON AMAZON MUSIC, HIS THEATRICAL PERFORMANCE IS AMAZING. THE WAY HE DOES THIS STAGING IS INCREDIBLE. AND IF YOU LOOK AT SOME OF THE FEATURES THAT HE'S ADDED IN SOME OF HIS VIDEOS IN PARTICULAR, THEY'RE NOT LIKE US. YOU JUST NEVER KNOW WHAT IT IS. BUT I THINK IF IT'S GOING TO BE ANYBODY, IT'S GOING TO BE ARTISTS AND CULTURAL REPRESENTATIVES FROM LOS ANGELES, SOUTH CENTRAL LOS ANGELES AND COMPTON IN PARTICULAR, THAT THEY'RE GOING TO SEE A LOT OF COAST REFERENCES AND POSSIBLY LIL WAYNE IF WE SEE ANY FEATURES AT ALL. >> ALL RIGHT. WE'LL SEE. MIKE MUSE, THANKS, FRIEND. THANK YOU. >> COMING UP, THE NEW SCHOOL YEAR AND THE RETURN TO A RIGOROUS ROUTINE AND TODAY'S MOTIVATION MONDAY PELOTON'S ALEX, U.S. TELLS US TEACHERS AND PARENTS CAN MAKE SURE THEIR SELF CARE DOESN'T TAKE A BACKSEAT WHENEVER, WHEREVER NEWS BREAKS. >> IT'S SO IMPORTANT TO ALWAYS REMEMBER THAT LIVES CHANGED HERE IN LONDON. >> IN BUFFALO NEWS ALL DAY, TEXAS EDINBURGH, SCOTLAND REPORTING FROM ROLLING FORK, MISSISSIPPI, THE UKRAINIAN HERE IN WARSAW.

SO WE PLAY EVERYTHING FROM WHITNEY HOUSTON REMIXES TO LITTLE JON REMIXES.

WHEREVER THE STORY IS, WE'LL TAKE YOU THERE. YOU'RE STREAMING ABC NEWS LIVE . HI, I'M DIANE MACEDO TODAY ON ABC NEWS LIVE. FIRST, VICE PRESIDENT HARRIS AND FORMER PRESIDENT TRUMP'S FIRST FACE TO FACE SHOWDOWN. HOW THE PRESIDENTIAL CANDIDATES ARE PREPARING FOR TOMORROW AND WHAT A NEW POLL SHOWS ABOUT THE STATE OF THE RACE. THE URGENT MANHUNT UNDERWAY FOR A HIGHWAY SHOOTING SUSPECT IN KENTUCKY. WHAT WE'RE LEARNING ABOUT THE SUSPECT, WHERE HE MIGHT BE HIDING AND THE CONDITION OF THE FIVE PEOPLE SHOT. AND BRACING FOR FRANCINE. THE GULF COAST IS ON ALERT FOR A POSSIBLE HURRICANE. THE STATE'S UNDER THE BIGGEST. >> AND WHEN THE STORM COULD MAKE LANDFALL. BUT FIRST, VICE PRESIDENT HARRIS AND FORMER PRESIDENT TRUMP ARE SET TO FACE OFF ON THE DEBATE STAGE FOR THE FIRST TIME TOMORROW NIGHT. HARRIS SAYS SHE'S READY AFTER HUNKERING DOWN FOR INTENSE PREP. MEANWHILE, TRUMP IS HOLDING INFORMAL POLICY SESSIONS WITH A SMALL TEAM OF ADVISERS. >> WE HAVE FULL TEAM COVERAGE WITH JUST ONE DAY LEFT UNTIL THE DEBATE, STARTING WITH ABC'S JAY O'BRIEN IN PHILADELPHIA. >> JAY THE STAGE IS SET. SO WHAT MORE CAN YOU TELL US ABOUT HOW TRUMP PREPARING FOR THIS DEBATE AND WHAT'S AT STAKE FOR HIM? YEAH, THE LIGHTS GO UP IN THE NATIONAL CONSTITUTION CENTER BEHIND ME JUST ABOUT 24 HOURS FROM NOW, DIANE, A LITTLE BIT MORE. AND WE KNOW FROM REPORTING FROM OUR RACHEL SCOTT, OUR KATHERINE FAULDERS, OUR JOHN SANTUCCI THAT TRUMP HAS BEEN HAVING, AS YOU SAID, THESE KIND OF INFORMAL DEBATE SESSIONS WITH KEY ADVISERS. ONE OF THEM IS FORMER CONGRESSWOMAN TULSI GABBARD, WHO HAS FACED KAMALA HARRIS BECAUSE SHE WAS ONCE A DEMOCRAT ON. THAT DEBATE STAGE IN THE DEMOCRATIC PRIMARIES IN 2019. AND ANOTHER IS CONGRESSMAN MATT GAETZ, WHO'S KNOWN AS A CONSERVATIVE FIREBRAND AND A BOMB THROWER AND CERTAINLY CAN TRY TO PLAY TO TRUMP'S KIND OF COUNTERPUNCHING TENDENCIES. BUT IT CANNOT BE UNDERSTATED OR OVERSTATED, RATHER, JUST HOW HIGH. THE STAKES ARE FOR BOTH CANDIDATES HERE FOR DONALD TRUMP. A RECOGNITION OF THE FACT THAT THIS RACE HAS FUNDAMENTALLY CHANGED. HE WENT INTO THIS ELECTION. HE WENT INTO THE LAST DEBATE FACING JOE BIDEN. AND THE POLITICAL EARTH HAS SHIFTED UNDERNEATH HIS FEET. AND THE QUESTION FACING DONALD TRUMP GOING INTO TOMORROW NIGHT IS, CANDY, ADAPT AND CAN HE REALLY KIND OF KEEP UP WITH THE FACT THAT THIS RACE HAS SO FUNDAMENTALLY CHANGED? >> NOW, VICE PRESIDENT HARRIS HAS ONLY DONE ONE UNSCRIPTED EVENT, ONE INTERVIEW SINCE BECOMING THE NOMINEE. SO HOW HIGH ARE THE STAKES FOR HER TOMORROW? >> AND THAT'S THE QUESTION FACING HER. THE STAKES EQUALLY HIGH FOR HER IS WHAT DOES SHE LOOK LIKE IN, AN UNSCRIPTED SETTING, PARTICULARLY BECAUSE THE TRUMP CAMPAIGN HAS REALLY MADE THAT THEIR KNOCK AGAINST VICE PRESIDENT HARRIS AMONG A NUMBER OF OTHER CRITICISMS. DONALD TRUMP HAS FREQUENTLY SAID SHE'S NOT HOLDING ENOUGH PRESS CONFERENCES. SHE'S HOLDING ENOUGH INTERVIEWS IN HIS VIEW. HE WANTS TO SEE HER IN MORE UNSCRIPTED SETTINGS. HE SAYS THAT SHE'S MANAGED AND THINGS LIKE THAT. AND SO WHEN HE SET THOSE EXPECTATIONS FOR HER, HOW DOES SHE MEET THEM ON DEBATE STAGE OR DOES SHE MEET THEM AND SHE ABLE TO ESSENTIALLY EXCEED THOSE EXPECTATIONS THAT TRUMP HAS SET FOR HER WHILE TRUMP AND THE TRUMP CAMPAIGN HAVE SAID THAT HARRIS HASN'T DONE A LOT OF UNSCRIPTED EVENTS? THERE ARE SOME TRUMP ALLIES, TULSI GABBARD, WHO HAVE KIND OF TRIED TO RAISE THE EXPECTATIONS GAME FOR HARRIS AND SAY, LOOK, SHE WAS A GOOD DEBATER IN THAT 2020 ELECTION CYCLE IN THOSE PRIMARY DEBATES. SHE TOOK IT TO JOE BIDEN ON THE DEBATE, REMEMBER, IN 2019, ETC., ETC.. >> SO THE EXPECTATIONS THAT THE TRUMP CAMPAIGN IS REALLY SET FOR HARRIS IS SOMEWHAT VARIED, BUT CERTAINLY BECAUSE SHE HASN'T DONE A LOT OF THOSE UNSCRIPTED EVENTS THAT IS GOING TO BE ONE OF THE QUESTIONS HANGING OVER HER IS WHAT DOES SHE LOOK LIKE IN A UNSCRIPTED SETTING? >> ALL RIGHT. AND JOE HAS JUST RELEASED A SWEEPING REPORT ON THE U.S. WITHDRAWAL FROM AFGHANISTAN, AND IT BLAMES THE WHITE HOUSE AND THE STATE DEPARTMENT FOR BEING SLOW TO LISTEN TO GENERALS WHO WARNED THE SECURITY SITUATION WOULD DETERIORATE. >> SO HOW ARE THE WHITE HOUSE AND STATE DEPARTMENT RESPONDING TO THAT? WELL, IT'S INTERESTING THE TIMING OF THE RELEASE OF THAT REPORT, NOT COINCIDENTAL AT ALL. THE WHITE HOUSE, THE STATE DEPARTMENT, THE ADMINISTRATION ARE RESPONDING BY TAKING ISSUE BY POINT BY POINT REALLY THROUGH THIS HOUSE REPUBLICAN REPORT. HOUSE REPUBLICANS SAY THAT IT DEMONSTRATES THE WHITE HOUSE THAT IN THEIR VIEW, WAS TOO CAUGHT UP WITH OPTICS AND VARIOUS OF THAT NATURE AND NOT PLANNING EFFECTIVELY AHEAD FOR THAT WITH AFGHANISTAN WITHDRAWAL. AND THAT'S WHAT LED TO THAT CHAOTIC, DISASTROUS WITHDRAWAL . THE WHITE HOUSE, THE ADMINISTRATION, THEY PUSHED BACK ON THAT. THEY SAYING, AMONG OTHER, THAT THEY WERE HAMPERED BY THAT AGREEMENT THAT FORMER PRESIDENT TRUMP WITH THE TALIBAN WHEN HE WAS IN OFFICE IN DOHA FOR THAT AFGHANISTAN WITHDRAWAL, AND THAT BECAUSE THEY WERE BINDED BY THAT AGREEMENT. THAT'S WHAT LED TO THAT CHAOTIC WITHDRAWAL. BUT POINT BEING, AGAIN, THE TIMING NOT COINCIDENTAL, BUT WORTH POINTING OUT IN THIS REPORT, THE REPORT DOESN'T DRAW KIND OF A STRAIGHT LINE BETWEEN VICE PRESIDENT HARRIS AND ANY OF THOSE DECISIONS THAT HOUSE REPUBLICANS POINTED TO AS TO LEADING TO THAT CHAOTIC SITUATION IN AFGHANISTAN. >> ALL RIGHT, JAY O'BRIEN IN PHILADELPHIA, THANKS. AND FORMER DEPARTMENT OF HOMELAND SECURITY OFFICIAL UNDER THE BIDEN ADMINISTRATION, MARSHA ESPINOSA, JOINS ME NOW, ALONG WITH REPUBLICAN STRATEGIST TRICIA MCLAUGHLIN FOR MORE. >> MARCIA, THERE'S NO AUDIENCE TOMORROW. MICROPHONES WILL BE LIVE ONLY FOR THE CANDIDATE WHOSE TURN IT IS TO SPEAK AND ONLY THE MODERATORS BE ALLOWED TO ASK QUESTIONS. SO HOW DO YOU THINK THAT SETUP PLAYS INTO HOW HARRIS? WELL, I THINK THEY'RE READY FOR THAT. WE WE HEARD SOME BACK AND FORTH ABOUT THE DEBATE NEGOTIATIONS, BUT IT'S ALL ON THE TABLE NOW. AND SHE'S HAD MANY DEBATES BEFORE AS A VICE PRESIDENTIAL CANDIDATE, AS A PRESIDENTIAL CANDIDATE AS THE SENATE. SO AS A SENATOR AND SHE'S BEEN A PROSECUTOR YEARS. SO WE KNOW THAT SHE'S QUICK ON HER FEET. SHE USES SHE'S CHARISMATIC IN THESE SORT OF SITUATIONS. SO I THINK THIS IS GOING TO PLAY WELL. I THINK SHE'S GOING TO HAVE TO TO SHOW THAT THE VOTERS, ALL OF TRUMP'S WEAKNESSES AND WHERE ACTUALLY STANDS ON THE ISSUES. THERE WILL BE MORE ATTENTION PAID ON HIM AND HIS AGE, HIS ACUITY, HOW WELL HE KNOWS THE ISSUES AS OPPOSED TO THE LAST DEBATE. WE SAW HIM JUST THE OTHER GET ASKED ABOUT A POLICY ISSUE LIKE CHILD CARE AND HE REALLY DIDN'T KNOW HOW TO ANSWER THAT AND SAID CHILD CARE IS CHILD CARE. IT IS ONE OF THE MOST IMPORTANT EXPENSES TO TO PEOPLE, INCLUDING MYSELF. SO VOTERS ARE GOING TO WANT TO SEE WHAT HE CAN DO. AND HE TENDS TO JUST RAMBLE AND THROW PUNCHES AND DEGRADE PEOPLE RATHER THAN ACTUALLY GET INTO THOSE ISSUES. SO SHE'S GOING TO BE USING ALL OF THAT TO HER ADVANTAGE. AND I THINK THERE'S GOING TO BE A A VERY CLEAR CONTRAST HERE. PATRICIA, CONGRESSMAN MATT GAETZ HAS BEEN HELPING TRUMP PREPARE BY ASKING HIM ABOUT HIS LEGAL BATTLES, HIS STANCE, ABORTION. >> HOW DO YOU EXPECT HIM TO ADDRESS THOSE ISSUES TOMORROW? >> WELL, AS I'VE SAID BEFORE, I THINK KAMALA HARRIS IS VERY MUCH GOING TO HAVE TO TRY TO PROSECUTE DONALD TRUMP, THE MAN OF DONALD TRUMP'S RECORD AS DONALD TRUMP'S RECORD LARGELY IS PRETTY POSITIVE AS FAR AS NOW. WE'RE FACING DOUBLE THE INFLATION WE WERE UNDER TRUMP. WE WEREN'T FACING ANY WARS WHEN DONALD TRUMP WAS PRESIDENT, AND NOW WE'RE FACING IT ON MULTIPLE FRONTS FROM THE MIDDLE EAST TO UKRAINE. SO DONALD TRUMP REALLY NEEDS TO STICK TO POLICY, WHETHER IT BE IMMIGRATION UNDER KAMALA HARRIS' WATCH. I KNOW SHE WAS THE BORDER, NOT NECESSARILY THE CZAR, BUT SHE WAS IN CHARGE OF BORDER POLICY, LARGELY THE THE ROOTS OF BORDER POLICY. >> SHE ALLOWED 10 TO 15 MILLION PEOPLE TO ILLEGALLY ENTER THIS COUNTRY. >> THAT'S A TOP MIND OF PEOPLE, OF VOTERS, NOT EVEN THOSE WHO ARE IN BORDER STATES AS WELL. THE ECONOMY, HE SHOULD REALLY STICK TO THE ISSUES AND NOT BE BAITED, WHICH I THINK IS VERY MUCH PART OF KAMALA HARRIS STRATEGY, IS TO BAIT HIM INTO EITHER TRYING TO SPEAK OVER HER OR GO FOR THE PERSONAL ATTACKS, WHICH WE'VE LARGELY SEEN AMERICANS DO NOT LIKE MARSHA HARRIS HAS BEEN CALLED A FLIP FLOPPER BY SOME. HOW DO YOU EXPECT HER TO ADDRESS HER CHANGE IN STANCE ON CERTAIN POLICIES LIKE FRACKING TOMORROW NIGHT? >> SHE SAID THAT HER POLICIES MAY HAVE CHANGED A LITTLE BIT FOR HER VALUES HAVEN'T. AND THIS IS A CHANCE FOR HER TO REALLY BE CRYSTAL WHERE SHE STANDS ON ALL OF THESE ISSUES, ALL OF THESE ISSUES. AND JUST A FACT CHECK. ONE QUICK THING. SHE WAS NOT. THE BORDERS ARE BUT SHE WAS HELPING WITH THE ROOT CAUSES OF IMMIGRATION AND IN THE WHITE HOUSE THAT WE'VE WE'VE GOT BORDERS ARE HE'S THE SECRETARY OF HOMELAND SECURITY WHO I WORKED FOR FOR YEARS AND OTHER PEOPLE WHO WORK ON THOSE BORDER BORDER ISSUES. BUT THAT'S ONE OF THE POINTS THAT SHE WILL, I THINK, MAKE IN ADDITION TO THE ECONOMY AND OTHER ISSUES THAT ARE REALLY AFFECTING VOTERS TODAY. AND REALLY TELLING HER STORY NOW IS HER TIME TO SHINE SHE NO LONGER IS IN THE SHADOW OF PRESIDENT BIDEN SO SHE CAN COME OUT, TALK TO VOTERS ONE ON ONE, WHICH SHE HAS BEEN DOING FOR THE PAST SEVEN WEEKS SINCE SHE'S BEEN A CANDIDATE. SO I THINK THAT WE CAN REALLY EXPECT HER TO TO SHINE IN THESE MOMENTS. WE THE CAMPAIGN HAS SAID IT'S GOING TO BE A RAZOR THIN VOTE. SHE'S CERTAINLY THE UNDERDOG HERE. TRUMP IS OUTPACING HER JUST IN THE SLIMMEST OF MARGINS. >> SO THEIR OPPORTUNITY IS REALLY HERS. PATRICIA, A POLL FROM "THE WASHINGTON POST" AND IPSOS FOUND A LARGE OF BLACK REGISTERED VOTERS SAY THEY WILL DEFINITELY OR PROBABLY FOR HARRIS. HOW BIG OF A PROBLEM IS THAT FOR TRUMP? >> WELL, IF YOU LOOK AT HER NUMBERS COMPARED TO JOE BIDEN'S IN 2020 WITH HISPANIC VOTERS, WITH BLACK VOTERS, SHE'S UNDERWATER. >> SHE HAS A LOT OF ROOM TO MAKE UP. SHE'S GOT TO INCREASE THOSE MARGINS. AND I THINK PART OF THAT IS THAT AMERICAN VOTERS RECOGNIZE THAT HARRIS IS DAY ONE WAS THREE AND A HALF YEARS AGO, AND SHE IS VERY MUCH TIED TO THOSE BIDEN-HARRIS ADMINISTRATION POLICIES, WHETHER IT BE ON IMMIGRATION, WHETHER IT BE ON THE ECONOMY. PEOPLE KNOW THAT THEY'RE PAYING NEARLY DOUBLE ON SOME. I MEAN, ELECTRICITY IS UP 31%, RENTS UP 20%. PEOPLE ARE HAVING TO GRAPPLE THAT EVERY OF THEIR LIVES. SO I THINK THAT THE MOST RECENT "NEW YORK TIMES" SIENA POLL, ALL OF IT SHOWS VERY RAZOR THIN MARGINS. BUT WE ALSO HAVE TO REMEMBER IN 2020, WE SEEM TO HAVE COLLECTIVELY THAT THESE POLL POLLS REALLY SHOW THE TRUTH. WHEN WE START ABOUT 5% MARGIN OF ERROR ON ANY GIVEN POLL. >> ALL RIGHT. MARSHA ESPINOSA, TRICIA MCLAUGHLIN, THANK YOU BOTH. AND THE FIRST PRESIDENTIAL DEBATE BETWEEN FORMER PRESIDENT TRUMP AND VICE PRESIDENT IS TOMORROW NIGHT. YOU CAN WATCH IT RIGHT HERE ON ABC NEWS. LIVE COVERAGE STARTS 9 P.M. EASTERN. >> AND AUTHORITIES IN KENTUCKY ARE NOW OFFERING A $10,000 REWARD FOR INFORMATION LEADING TO THE CAPTURE OF A SUSPECTED HIGHWAY SHOOTER. CLASSES ARE ALSO CANCELED IN MULTIPLE SCHOOL DISTRICTS AMID THE SEARCH FOR 32-YEAR-OLD JOSEPH COUCH. OFFICIALS SAY HE OPENED FIRE ON INTERSTATE 75 OUTSIDE LONDON, KENTUCKY, ON SATURDAY NIGHT, INJURING FIVE PEOPLE. LET'S BRING IN ABC NEWS ALEX PRESHA IN LONDON, KENTUCKY, FORMER FBI AGENT, ABC NEWS CONTRIBUTOR BRAD GARRETT FOR MORE. ALEX, WHAT'S THE LATEST BOTH ON THIS INVESTIGATION AND THE CONDITION OF THOSE WHO WERE INJURED HERE? WELL, THEY AND LET'S START WITH THE CONDITION OF THOSE INJURED. WHAT WE KNOW RIGHT NOW IS THAT ARE ALL CONSIDERED IN STABLE CONDITION AND THAT'S BEEN CONCERNED OVER THE LAST COUPLE DAYS. LISTEN, THEY'RE ALL EXPECTED TO SURVIVE, BUT WHAT THE STATE POLICE AND THE SHERIFF'S DEPARTMENT HERE IN AND IN LAUREL COUNTY HAS TOLD US IS THAT WHILE THEY WERE EXPECTED TO SURVIVE, THESE INJURIES ARE QUITE SEVERE. ONE DEPUTY LAST NIGHT DESCRIBED THEM AS LIFE ALTERING. AND SO WE KNOW THAT THERE WAS AN INDIVIDUAL WHO WAS SHOT IN THE FACE. WE KNOW THERE WAS A WOMAN WHO WAS SHOT ACROSS HER CHEST. ANOTHER INDIVIDUAL WAS SHOT IN THE ARM, FIVE OF THESE PEOPLE. AND SO AND SO, YOU KNOW, THAT IS THAT IS SOMETHING THAT'S A VERY, VERY SERIOUS. AND IN TERMS OF THE INVESTIGATION, WE KNOW THAT IT RESUMED THIS MORNING. THEY ARE BASICALLY WALKING THROUGH A VERY DENSE, REMOTE AND RUGGED AREA SURROUNDING THE CITY OF LONDON. IT'S BEEN DESCRIBED TO US AS WALKING THROUGH THE JUNGLE. YOU HAVE TO HACK THE GATES WITH MACHETES, THAT AT TIMES THERE'S ALSO AN UNDERGROUND CAVERN SYSTEM. WE'VE BEEN TOLD THAT THEY ALSO TO TRY TO TO TO TO SEARCH SAFELY. AND THAT'S ONE OF THE BIG CHALLENGES HERE IN TRYING TO FIND THIS SUSPECT, TWO-YEAR-OLD JOSEPH COUCH. AND THIS AREA OF SOUTH EASTERN KENTUCKY, IT IS VERY RUGGED. >> IT IS FULL OF CAVES. HOW CHALLENGING IS THAT IN A SEARCH LIKE THIS? VERY CHALLENGING. DIANE BECAUSE BECAUSE YOU DON'T HAVE BASICALLY A LIMITED. IF YOU THINK ABOUT GOING INTO A DARK CAVE OR TUNNEL, I MEAN, YOU COULD JUST COME UPON THIS PARTICULAR SUSPECT AND HE'S RIGHT IN FRONT OF YOU . >> IS HE ARM? IS HE NOT ARMED? WE DON'T KNOW THAT. BUT YOU JUST HAVE TO ASSUME THAT HE MAY WELL BE. AND YOU KEEP LOOKING THE KEY IS CAN YOU NARROW THE SCOPE OF WHAT YOU'RE LOOKING FOR? >> IN OTHER WORDS, DOES THIS PARTICULAR SUSPECT, THROUGH INTERVIEWS YOU THAT HE DOES KNOW THE CAVE SYSTEM? THAT'S ONE POSSIBILITY. YOU NEED TO TALK TO EXPERTS ABOUT THIS PARTICULAR SYSTEM BECAUSE YOU MAY BE ABLE TO, BASED ON THE PROXIMITY OF THE RIFLE. THE AR 15 AND HIS VEHICLE WERE FOUND. YOU KNOW, IT MAY BE THAT HE'S AT A REASONABLE DISTANCE IF, IN FACT, STILL IN THE ZONE OF WHERE HE WAS LAST SEEN. >> AND BRIAN, HOW DO YOU ENSURE PUBLIC SAFETY WITH SOMEONE LIKE THIS ON THE RUN? WELL, YOU KNOW, THE PROBLEM, OBVIOUSLY, IS WE DON'T HAVE A MOTIVE. AND TYPICALLY, ALL OF THESE TYPE OF SHOOTINGS FROM A LOCATION DOWN ONTO VEHICLES IS RANDOM. I MEAN, THEY JUST DON'T KNOW WHO THEY'RE SHOOTING AT. SO DOES THAT MEAN THAT HE'S GOING TO SOMEPLACE ELSE? >> I MEAN, I DON'T KNOW. I THINK THIS IS OUT OF AN ABUNDANCE OF CAUTION. I WOULDN'T QUESTION POLICE AND SCHOOL SYSTEMS TO TEMPORARILY SHUT DOWN. >> BUT IT GIVES YOU AN IDEA WHEN YOU HAVE SOMEBODY THAT IS USED IN AR 15 THAT SHOT 12 VEHICLES AND SHOT MAYBE 20 PLUS ROUNDS OF AMMUNITION FROM A HIGH POWERED WEAPON, YOU JUST CAN'T REALLY TAKE ANY CHANCES. >> AND ALEX, I UNDERSTAND YOU HAVE AN UPDATE NOW. WHAT ARE YOU HEARING I WOULD POINT TO ABOUT THIS THIS INVESTIGATION DIANE, WE LEARNED THIS OVERNIGHT. SO POLICE HAVE BEEN COMBING THROUGH HIS HISTORY AND IN THAT WE DO KNOW THAT, THERE WAS SOME SORT OF INTEL THAT THEY RECEIVED THAT WAS NOT EITHER FROM, YOU KNOW, LAPTOPS OR ANY OF HIS PERSONAL BELONGINGS, SPECIFIC INFORMATION THAT THEY RECEIVED SOMEWHERE FROM THE COMMUNITY, WHETHER IT BE A FAMILY MEMBER, WHETHER IT BE A PARTNER OR SOMETHING LIKE THAT, THAT MADE THEM A CONCERN, MADE THEM CONFIDENT THAT THIS WAS THEIR GUY AND THAT IT WAS LIKELY HIM TO CARRY THESE. SO. SO THERE IS COMMUNICATION WITH WITH SOME SORT OF SOURCE HERE. WE KNOW FROM LAW ENFORCEMENT. >> ALL RIGHT.

SO LET ME START WITH TROPICAL STORM FRANCINE BECAUSE IT'S JUST HAPPENED RECENTLY. WE NOW HAVE A NAMED STORM. IT'S OUR SIXTH NAMED STORM OF THE SEASON. KEEP IN MIND, SEPTEMBER 10TH IS THE PEAK OF HURRICANE SEASON. SO TOMORROW WE'RE PEAKING SO THIS IS RIGHT ON TIME. IT'S NORMAL TO SEE ANOTHER STORM FORMING THIS OF YEAR IN THIS SEASON. OKAY.

THE SEA SURFACE TEMPERATURES HERE ARE ACTUALLY ABOVE AVERAGE FOR WHERE SHOULD BE. AND SO WE WILL SEE THIS INTENSIFY EVEN IN THIS SHORT DURATION OF OF TRACKING. AND IT COULD INTENSIFY TO A CATEGORY ONE HURRICANE, AT WHICH POINT THEY'RE MAKING LANDFALL ANYWHERE WITHIN THIS CONE OF UNCERTAINTY FROM FAR WESTERN LOUISIANA CLOSE TO NEW ORLEANS. AND THEN WHAT'S LEFT WILL HEAD UP TOWARDS PLACES LIKE, ARKANSAS, MEMPHIS. OKAY. NOW, TIMING THIS OUT. >> WHEN IS THIS ALL GOING TO HIT? SO THIS IS TUESDAY, 12 P.M.. NOTICE HOW SOME OF THE OUTER RAIN BANDS ARE ALREADY REACHING PLACES, GALVESTON INTO PARTS OF HOUSTON, BEAUMONT. >> AND THEN BY 6 A.M.

OKAY, SO WE'RE LOOKING AROUND WEDNESDAY AFTERNOON FOR LANDFALL THAT, TIMING, GIVE OR TAKE JUST A BIT. AND WE COULD SEE A GOOD AMOUNT OF RAIN FROM THIS.

DAVID MUIR AND LINSEY DAVIS TOMORROW NIGHT LIVE ON ABC AND STREAMING ON ABC NEWS LIVE KUMU AND DISNEY PLUS THE ABC NEWS PRESIDENTIAL DEBATE. I AM DEVASTATED. WE HAVE BREAKING NEWS. PRINCESS KATE IS GIVING AN UPDATE ON HER HEALTH. SHE SAYS HER CHEMOTHERAPY TREATMENT IS COMPLETE AND THAT HER FOCUS IS NOW ON STAYING CANCER FREE. THE PRINCESS STEPPED OUT OF THE PUBLIC EYE IN JANUARY TO UNDERGO ABDOMINAL SURGERY, WHICH WAS LATER LINKED TO A CANCER DIAGNOSIS. NOW, SHE SAYS SHE'S DOING WHAT SHE STAY CANCER FREE AND FOCUSING ON THAT. >> TAKE A LOOK. AS AS THE SUN COMES TO AN END, I CANNOT TELL YOU WHAT A RELIEF IT IS TO FINALLY COMPLETED MY CHEMOTHERAPY TREATMENT. THE LAST NINE MONTHS HAVE BEEN INCREDIBLY TOUGH FOR US. A FAMILY. LIFE IS YOU KNOW, IT CAN CHANGE IN AN INSTANT. AND WE'VE HAD TO FIND A WAY TO NAVIGATE THE STORMY WATERS AND. VERY UNKNOWN. THE CANCER JOURNEY IS COMPLEX SCARY AND UNPREDICTABLE FOR EVERYONE. ESPECIALLY THOSE CLOSEST TO WITH HUMILITY. >> IT ALSO BRINGS YOU FACE TO FACE WITH YOUR OWN VULNERABILITIES IN A WAY YOU'VE NEVER CONSIDERED BEFORE. AND WITH THAT, A NEW PERSPECTIVE ON EVERYTHING. >> IT JUST FELT LIKE A THIS TIME HAS ABOVE ALL, REMINDER WILLIAM AND ME TO REFLECT AND BE GRATEFUL FOR THE SIMPLE YET THINGS IN LIFE WHICH SO MANY OF US OFTEN TAKE FOR GRANTED AS SIMPLY LOVING AND BEING LOVED. >> DOING WHAT I CAN TO STAY CANCER FREE IS MY FOCUS. ALTHOUGH I FINISHED CHEMOTHERAPY, MY PATH TO HEALING AND FULL RECOVERY IS LONG, AND I MUST CONTINUE TO TAKE EACH DAY AS IT COMES. I AM, HOWEVER, LOOKING FORWARD TO BEING BACK AT WORK AND UNDERTAKING A FEW MORE PUBLIC ENGAGEMENTS IN THE COMING MONTHS WHEN I CAN. DESPITE ALL THAT'S GONE BEFORE ,I ENTER THIS NEW PHASE OF RECOVERY WITH A RENEWED SENSE OF HOPE, AN APPRECIATION OF LIFE. >> WILLIAM AND I ARE SO GRATEFUL FOR THE SUPPORT WE'VE RECEIVED AND HAVE DRAWN GREAT STRENGTH FROM ALL THOSE WHO ARE HELPING US AT THIS TIME. EVERYONE'S KINDNESS, EMPATHY, AND COMPASSION HAS BEEN TRULY HUMBLING TO ALL THOSE WHO CONTINUE THEIR OWN CANCER JOURNEY. I REMAIN WITH YOU SIDE BY SIDE ,HAND IN HAND, OUT OF DARKNESS. CAN COME LIGHT. SO LET THAT LIGHT SHINE BRIGHT . AND I WANT TO BRING IN ABC NEWS FOREIGN CORRESPONDENT WHO JOINS ME NOW ALONG WITH ABC NEWS ROYAL CONTRIBUTOR VICTORIA MURPHY MORE. >> MAGGIE, WHAT ARE YOU HEARING FROM THE PALACE ABOUT THE CONDITION NOW? WELL, HEY, DIANA, YOU KNOW, I THINK FIRSTLY THAT THIS WAS SUCH A RAW AND INTIMATE PORTRAYAL THAT WE SAW OF THE PRINCESS. IT'S SOMETHING WE RARELY GET A CHANCE TO SEE HER WITH, HER FAMILY, HER HUSBAND, HER THREE KIDS. WE'VE BEEN, YOU KNOW, HEARD SOME LAUGHTER, HER KIDS. IT WAS SUCH AN INTIMATE GLIMPSE INSIDE THEIR FAMILY. AND I FEEL LIKE IT WAS REALLY IMPORTANT FOR THE PRINCESS TO SHARE THAT WITH PEOPLE AT THIS AFTER GOING THROUGH SO MUCH AND MUCH OF IT VERY PUBLICLY AS TO GIVE PEOPLE THIS GLIMPSE SAYING SHE'S OKAY, IT'S BEEN TOUGH, BUT SHE IS DOING OKAY. AND I THINK THAT'S THE MAIN MESSAGE THE PALACE REALLY WANTED TO GET ACROSS THIS FEELING OF CALMNESS, OF PEACEFULNESS. I MEAN, YOU WATCHED THAT VIDEO AND IT'S HARD NOT TO FEEL PEACEFUL WITH HER FAMILY LIKE YOU'RE RIGHT THERE WITH THEM, LIKE YOU'VE BEEN ON THIS JOURNEY WITH THEM. BUT I THINK WHAT'S REALLY IMPORTANT, DAN, RIGHT NOW COMING FROM THE PALACE IS THAT THERE'S STILL HARD TIMELINE. WE HEARD FROM THE PRINCESS HERSELF THAT SHE'S PLANNING TO START DOING SOME FORMAL ENGAGEMENTS BEFORE THE END OF THE YEAR, BUT EVEN THAT IS GOING TO BE QUITE LIMITED. YOU KNOW, THEY'RE LYING TIME AND TIME AGAIN OVER THE PAST NINE MONTHS HAS BEEN IT'S GOING TO BE BASED ON HER DOCTOR'S ADVICE. I THINK THAT WILL STILL STAY TRUE. BUT RIGHT NOW, WE HAVE HEARD FROM THE PRINCESS HERSELF THAT SHE WANTS TO GET BACK TO WORK. SHE'S GOING TO DO AS MUCH AS SHE CAN, BUT IN GENERAL, STAYING CANCER FREE IS HER NUMBER ONE PRIORITY, AS IS HER FAMILY. >> DIANE. MAGGIE, WHAT DO WE KNOW ABOUT THE TIMING OF WHEN THIS VIDEO WAS SHOT AND WHY THEY'RE RELEASING THIS INFORMATION NOW? >> YEAH, WE UNDERSTAND THE VIDEO WAS SHOT IN AUGUST, SO NOT THAT LONG AGO IT WAS SHOT IN NORFOLK, A PLACE THAT THE FAMILY OFTEN VACATIONS IN THIS SUMMER. IT'S JUST A COUPLE OUTSIDE HOURS OUTSIDE OF LONDON. AND, YOU KNOW, AT THIS POINT, WE'RE NOT EXACTLY SURE WHY IT WAS RELEASED JUST AT THIS MOMENT. BUT I THINK, YOU KNOW, THE TIMING AROUND HER FINISHING HER CHEMOTHERAPY TREATMENT, OBVIOUSLY, SHE TO SPEAK WITH THE PUBLIC AFTER THAT WAS DONE, YOU KNOW, SHE MADE A POINT TO REALLY THANK PEOP FOR BEING THERE WITH HER ON THIS JOURNEY TO REMIND PEOPLE WHO STILL GOING THROUGH CANCER TREATMENT THAT SHE STANDS WITH THEM SIDE BY SIDE, HAND IN HAND. I THINK THEY'VE REALLY BEEN TOUCHED BY HOW THE PUBLIC HAS REACHED OUT TO THEM DURING THIS TIME. AND I THINK SHE WANTED TO UPDATE PEOPLE QUITE GENUINELY ON HOW SHE WAS DOING, HOW HER FAMILY IS DOING. YOU KNOW, SHE MENTIONED THAT DIAGNOSIS LIKE THIS IS NOT ONLY DIFFICULT FOR, THE PERSON GOING THROUGH TREATMENT, BUT ALSO THE FAMILY AS WELL. THESE PAST NINE MONTHS HAVE BEEN VERY DIFFICULT FOR HERSELF, HER HUSBAND, HER THREE LITTLE CHILDREN. SO I THINK SHE WANTED TO GENUINELY SHARE AN UPDATE WITH, PEOPLE LETTING THEM KNOW HER CHEMOTHERAPY TREATMENT IS OVER. SHE'S DOING WHAT SHE CAN RIGHT NOW TO STAY CANCER FREE. AND THAT'S HER MAIN PRIORITY AND FOCUS, BUT ALSO LETTING PEOPLE KNOW THAT WE CAN EXPECT TO SEE HER BEFORE THE END OF THE YEAR TO FEELING MOMENTS . AND I THINK IT'S SOMETHING THAT PEOPLE WILL REALLY BE LOOKING FORWARD TO DAY. DAN VICTORIA, WHAT DO WE KNOW ABOUT THIS TREATMENT AND HOW BIG OF A DEAL IT IS FOR HER TO SAY SHE'S DONE WITH THIS PREVENTATIVE CHEMOTHERAPY? >> I WOULD GUESS. I MEAN, THE BIG HEADLINE TODAY IS THAT SHE HAS FINISHED HER CHEMOTHERAPY TREATMENT. I THINK WE DO NEED TO URGE CAUTION ON SUGGESTING THAT THAT MEANS THAT SHE'S FINISHED ALL OF HER TREATMENT BECAUSE THAT IS NOT WHAT IS BEING SAID HERE. THEY HAVE BEEN VERY SPECIFIC ABOUT THE FACT THAT IT'S CHEMOTHERAPY TREATMENT. AND SHE'S MADE IT VERY CLEAR THAT HER JOURNEY IS ONGOING. SHE HAS NEVER DISCLOSED WHAT TYPE OF CANCER SHE HAS OR OTHER THAN THIS PREVENTATIVE CHEMOTHERAPY, WHAT KIND OF SHE IS HAVING. AND IT DOESN'T SEEM LIKE THAT IS GOING TO CHANGE NOW, SHE'S BEEN QUITE PERSONAL IN THIS MESSAGE ABOUT HOW SHE'S FELT ABOUT THINGS AND THE NATURE OF WHAT THIS HAS MEANT FOR AND WHAT IT'S MADE HER REFLECT ON THAT SHE HASN'T GONE INTO ANY DETAILS ON HER TREATMENT. AND I DON'T THINK THAT WE'RE GOING TO SEE THAT NOW. VICTORIA, DO YOU THINK THIS CHANGES HOW SHE IS VIEWED BY THE BRITISH PUBLIC AND BY THE WORLD, FOR THAT MATTER, TO UNDERGO SOMETHING LIKE THIS AND SORT OF FORCE HER TO OPEN UP MAYBE A LITTLE BIT MORE THAN SHE WOULD HAVE OTHERWISE? >> I DO. AND WHAT I WOULD SAY, DIANA, THAT THAT VIDEO THAT THEY HAVE RELEASED TODAY ALONGSIDE THIS PERSONAL MESSAGE WHERE SHE'S NARRATING HER MESSAGE, I CAN HONESTLY SAY I DON'T THINK I'VE ANYTHING LIKE IT. YOU KNOW, I'VE COVERED THE WORLD FOR A VERY LONG TIME AND I'VE SEEN LOTS OF MESSAGES AND LOTS OF VIDEO MESSAGES, BUT I DON'T THINK I'VE SEEN ANYTHING AS PERSONAL AS THIS ONE BEFORE. IT'S NOT JUST THE FACT THAT THE WORDS ARE PERSONAL. IT'S ALSO WHEN YOU WATCH THAT FOOTAGE, AND I WOULD URGE EVERYONE TO WATCH IT. IT'S INCREDIBLY PERSONAL. BEHIND THE SCENES FOOTAGE, THEM INSIDE THEIR HOME, YOU SEE WILLIAM AND KATE HUGGING EACH OTHER LYING DOWN ON THE GRASS OUTSIDE TOGETHER. WE'VE NEVER SEEN THIS OF INTIMACY BEFORE. AND I THINK THAT THAT REALLY KIND OF SHOWS US THAT SHE WANTS PEOPLE TO UNDERSTAND HER PERSONAL JOURNEY AND, THAT SHE'S REALLY WILLING WITH THIS MESSAGE TO OPEN UP ABOUT WHAT HAS BEEN LIKE AND TO REMIND PEOPLE THAT THIS HAS REALLY AFFECTED HER FAMILY. >> AND SHE HAS ALSO, MAGGIE, CREDITED THE FAMILY WITH HELPING HER THROUGH THIS. WHAT DO WE KNOW ABOUT THE LEVEL OF SUPPORT SHE'S HAD THROUGHOUT NEW DAY? >> AND I THINK TALKING SOMEBODY VICTORIA JUST SAID WATCHING HER WITH HER HUSBAND AND THE FACT THAT WE RARELY SEE SUCH INTIMACY BETWEEN MEMBERS OF THE ROYAL FAMILY IN SUCH A PUBLIC WAY. AND I THINK THAT'S A TESTAMENT TO THE SUPPORT SHE FEELS SHE'S GOTTEN FROM HER FAMILY. YOU KNOW, SHE MENTIONED THE MANY TIMES IN THE VIDEO SUPPORT FROM HER FAMILY SUPPORT FROM THE PUBLIC. AND IT SEEMS WHEN YOU WATCH THIS VIDEO THAT IT DOES APPEAR TO BE GENUINE. I THINK THAT THE WHOLE FAMILY FEELING QUITE GRATEFUL FOR THE AMOUNT OF SUPPORT THEY RECEIVED FROM THE PUBLIC THE LAST NINE MONTHS. AND KATE HAS MADE A P POINT TO SAY SHE'S REALLY LEANED INTO HER FAMILY AS WELL. AND AGAIN, WHAT REALLY STOOD OUT FOR ME WAS HER TALKING ABOUT HOW DIFFICULT THIS TIME HAS BEEN NOT JUST FOR HERSELF, BUT FOR HER WHOLE FAMILY. AND I THINK ANYONE THAT'S GONE THROUGH, WHETHER IT BE CANCER OR ANOTHER LONG TERM HEALTH DIAGNOSIS, YOU KNOW, FAMILY MEMBERS REALLY DO PUT A BURDEN ON THEMSELVES AS WELL. AND SO IT FEELS LIKE WITH THIS VIDEO SHE WAS SAYING YOU NOT JUST TO THE PUBLIC, BUT TO HER FAMILY, SHOWING THAT HER FAMILY IS GETTING THROUGH THIS DIFFICULT TIME AS WELL AND BEING ABLE TO SEE HER THREE CHILDREN INTERACT LIKE THAT. AGAIN, AS VICTORIA MENTIONED. IT'S SO RARE TO SEE THIS FROM THE ROYAL FAMILY, A FAMILY THAT NORMALLY STAYS VERY PRIVATE. YOU DON'T HEAR FROM THEIR CHILDREN YOU KNOW, THE FACT THAT WE EVEN JUST HEARD LITTLE GIGGLES FROM THE CHILDREN. IT REALLY STRUCK ME AS A CHANCE FOR THE ROYAL FAMILY TO SHOW THIS PERSONAL SIDE THAT WE OFTEN DON'T GET TO SEE. >> VICTORIA, DO YOU THINK WE'LL SEE MORE INSTANCE LIKE THIS? >> COULD THIS EPISODE KIND OF CHANGE A LITTLE BIT THE WAY THE ROYAL FAMILY COMMUNICATES? >> I THINK THIS VIDEO DOES FEEL VERY UNIQUE BECAUSE IT'S PARTICULARLY OPEN AND IT'S PARTICULARLY INTIMATE. I THINK WE MIGHT SEE SOME PERSONAL MESSAGES MOVING FORWARD. SHE'S RELEASED PERSONAL MESSAGES IN THE PAST, VIDEO MESSAGES, BUT I DON'T KNOW IF WE'LL SEE ANYTHING QUITE LIKE THIS AGAIN. I'M NOT SURE THAT THEY WILL OPEN THE FLOODGATES, DO THIS REGULARLY, BECAUSE IT KIND OF DOES FEEL LIKE A VERY SORT OF SPECIAL ONE OFF MOMENT THAT WE'RE SEEING HERE TODAY. BUT I DO THINK THAT KENSINGTON PALACE AND WILLIAM AND KATE ARE VERY AWARE OF THE FACT THAT THE BRITISH PUBLIC ADORES HER. PEOPLE REALLY WANT TO KNOW HOW SHE'S DOING. PEOPLE ARE VERY INVESTED IN HER STORY AND IN HER RECOVERY. AND SO PEOPLE DO WANT TO KNOW FROM TIME TO TIME HOW SHE'S GETTING ON. PEOPLE UNDERSTAND THAT SHE'S ASKING FOR SPACE AND PRIVACY AND ACTUALLY SHE'S THANKING THE PUBLIC AND THE MEDIA FOR GIVING HER THAT OVER THE LAST FEW MONTHS. BUT THEY UNDERSTAND THAT PEOPLE DO WANT TO KNOW HOW SHE'S DOING. SO I DEFINITELY THINK WE WILL GET UPDATES IN THE FUTURE, JUST MAYBE NOT QUITE AS UNIQUE AS THIS ONE. >> AND MAGGIE, CAN WE EXPECT TO SEE MORE OF THE PRINCESS NOW THAT SHE'S MADE THIS ANNOUNCEMENT? >> I THINK SO, TOO. HAVE WE HEARD FROM THE PRINCESS HERSELF IN HER OWN WORDS SAYING SHE WANTS TO GET BACK TO WORK? WE DO KNOW THAT SHE BEEN WORKING FROM HOME. WE'VE SEEN GLIMPSES OF HER SINCE SHE HER DIAGNOSIS BACK IN MARCH. WE'VE SEEN HER ABOUT THREE TIMES IN PUBLIC. SHE WAS AT WIMBLEDON. SHE WAS AT TROOPING THE COLOR. SHE WENT TO CHURCH IN BALMORAL. SHE'S RELEASED VIDEOS, SOCIAL MEDIA, YOU KNOW, CONGRATULATING THE UK'S OLYMPIC TEAM. AND THEN WE HAVE THIS HIGHLY PRODUCED INTIMATE VIDEO. AND AS SHE SAID, SHE WANTS TO GET BACK THERE ON A BIGGER PLATFORM. SHE WANTS TO START DOING PUBLIC ENGAGEMENTS. SO I THINK BEFORE END OF THE YEAR, DIANA, WE CAN EXPECT TO SEE HER OUT ACTUALLY IN A FORMAL VERY PUBLIC CAPACITY AS A WORKING ROYAL. BUT SHE ALSO MADE THE POINT, JULIE REITERATED THAT SHE'S GOING TO TAKE IT AT HER OWN PACE. AS VITTORIA MENTIONED, YOU KNOW SHE'S STILL IN RECOVERY. SHE'S STILL GOING THROUGH POTENTIALLY SOME TREATMENTS. WE'RE NOT SURE THIS IS A LONG PROCESS, SAYS THE PRINCESS. SO I THINK WHILE SHE WANTS TO GET BACK OUT THERE WORKING, WE SHOULD EXPECT TO SEE HER AS A WORKING ROYAL IN SOME CAPACITY GOING FORWARD BEFORE THE END OF THE YEAR. YOU KNOW WHAT THAT MEANS. IT'S STILL UP IN THE AIR. AND I THINK, AGAIN, IT'LL COME TO HER DOCTOR'S ORDERS, HOW SHE IS FEELING, HOW MUCH SHE REALLY WANTS TO BE OUT THERE, THE PUBLIC. >> BUT IT SEEMS LIKE SHE WANTS TO BE. DIANE ALL RIGHT. MAGGIE RULLI THANK YOU BOTH. >> AND WE WILL HAVE CONTINUING UPDATES HERE ON ABC NEWS LIVE THROUGHOUT THE DAY, THROUGHOUT THE DAY. THANKS FOR JOINING US. I'M DIANE MACEDO HAVE A GREAT REST OF YOUR DAY. >> HERE'S TO GOOD MORNING AMERICA.

FIRST FOOTBALL IS BACK AND THE FIRST NFL SUNDAY OF THE YEAR IS OFFICIALLY THE BOOKS. WE SAW UPSETS WITH THE DOUBLE DIGIT UNDERDOG NEW ENGLAND PATRIOTS, THE CINCINNATI BENGALS. AND WE SAW SOME ROOKIES STUMBLE WITH THE NUMBER OVERALL PICK IN THE DRAFT STRUGGLING TO ADJUST TO THE PRO GAME. FOR ALL THAT AND MORE, LET'S BRING IN ESPN SENIOR NFL WRITER JEREMY FOWLER. JEREMY, THANKS SO MUCH FOR COMING ON. WHAT A WEEK. ONE CURIOUS NOW. WHAT ARE YOUR BIGGEST TAKEAWAYS AFTER THE FIRST NFL SUNDAY OF THE YEAR? YEAH, THANK YOU FOR HAVING ME. YOU KNOW, AMERICA'S TEAM, THE DALLAS COWBOYS LOOKS DARN GOOD AFTER A OFFSEASON OF TURMOIL AND SOME OF STAR PLAYERS NOT BEING SIGNED TO THE BIG CONTRACTS UNTIL VERY LATE IN THE PROCESS. DAK PRESCOTT, THE QUARTERBACK, SIGNING A $240 MILLION DEAL JUST HOURS BEFORE KICKOFF ,THERE WERE QUESTIONS ABOUT WHETHER THE COWBOYS, WHO TRADITIONALLY STRUGGLED IN THE PLAYOFFS, YOU'RE GOING TO ABLE TO PUT IT ALL TOGETHER WELL, THEY HAD A VERY CONVINCING WIN OVER THE BROWNS ,UP 33 POINTS. THEY LOOK LIKE THEY'RE GOING TO BE RIGHT IN THE PLAYOFF MIX . SO THAT STOOD OUT TO ME PLAYING A BROWNS TEAM THAT IS SORT OF THE OPPOSITE NOW, A LITTLE BIT WITH DESHAUN WATSON, A QUARTERBACK. THEY GAVE A LOT OF MONEY TO, HAS STRUGGLED IN THE LAST FEW YEARS, STRUGGLED AGAIN YESTERDAY. >> SO THE BROWNS NEED HIM TO REALLY PICK UP THE PACE A LITTLE BIT. >> JEREMY ROOKIE STRUGGLED A BIT YESTERDAY PARTICULARLY ROOKIE QUARTERBACK. SHOULD THESE TEAMS BE WORRIED? >> I WOULDN'T SAY WORRIED YET. MAYBE A MILD CONCERN BECAUSE YOU WANT TO SEE A LITTLE MORE OUTPUT YOU KNOW BO NICK'S THE ROOKIE STARTER DENENVER AVERAGED JUST OVER THREE YARDS PER PASSING ATTEMPT THAT'S JUST NOT TO GET IT DONE AT THE NFL LEVEL. BUT A LOT OF TIMES, YOU KNOW, COACHES WILL WARN ME WEEK ONE, WEEK TWO, THE DEFENSES ARE USUALLY A LITTLE BIT AHEAD . YOU KNOW, THEY'VE GOT AN ADVANTAGE. THEY GOT MORE EXPERIENCE AND SO THEY CAN CONFUSE YOUNG QUARTERBACKS. BUT, YOU KNOW, YOU GOT CALEB WILLIAMS, THE NUMBER ONE OVERALL PICK THROWING FOR LESS THAN 90 YARDS IN A GAME. WHEN YOU TYPICALLY NEED 200 TO 250 YARDS TO WIN AN NFL CONTEST MOST WEEKS. SO IT'S A BIT OF AN ISSUE. AND ALL STRUGGLED A LITTLE BIT. BUT THERE'S A LOT OF TALENT. THIS IS CONSIDERED ONE OF THE BETTER QUARTERBACK CLASSES IN RECENT YEARS WITH SIX OF THE QUARTERBACKS GOING IN THE TOP 12 PICKS BACK IN APRIL'S NFL DRAFT. THEY SHOULD GET IT TOGETHER. THERE'S ENOUGH TALENT. WELL, THAT WILL SHINE OVER 17 GAMES. >> AND JEREMY TONIGHT MIGHT THE MOST ANTICIPATED DAY IN FOOTBALL SINCE THE SUPER BOWL RIGHT THE RETURN OF COURSED THIS SEASON ENDING INJURY JUST THREE PLAYS INTO LAST SEASON. SO WHAT ARE YOU TO SEE TONIGHT . YEAH AARON RODGERS RETURN IS PROBABLY THE BEST STORYLINE IN THE NFL RIGHT NOW THIS IS A QUARTERBACK WHO'S NOW 40 YEARS OLD HAS SOME QUESTIONS ABOUT WHETHER HIS BODY AT THAT AGE COULD RESPOND TO AN ACHILLES TEAR THAT HE TO REHAB FOR MONTHS. AND NOT ONLY HAS HE REHABBED SUCCESSFULLY, HE'S LOOKED REALLY GOOD IN THE PRESEASON AND TRAINING CAMP WITH THE JETS. THIS IS A TEAM THAT TRADITIONALLY HAS STRUGGLED BUT THEY HAVE A LOT OF TALENT RIGHT NOW AROUND RODGERS. THE QUESTION IS, CAN HE GET AROUND THE POCKET MOVE AROUND, SHOW HIS MOBILITY AND STILL THROW ON THE RUN LIKE HE'S DONE SO SUCCESSFULLY ALL THESE YEARS? WE'LL FIND OUT AGAINST ONE OF THE VERY BEST DEFENSES IN THE NFL, THE 49 OR SO. YOU KNOW, THE JETS ARE GOING TO AN OFF SEASON, COMPELLING STORYLINE, REALLY EVERY WEEK OF THE YEAR STARTING TONIGHT. AND AARON RODGERS HAS ALWAYS BEEN PRODUCTIVE. SO I'M ASSUMING WILL BE TONIGHT. >> ALL RIGHT. WE'LL SEE HOW HE DOES. ESPN SENIOR NFL WRITER JEREMY. THANKS, JEREMY. AND AGAIN, AARON RODGERS RETURNS TONIGHT AGAINST THE DEFENDING NFC CHAMPION SAN FRANCISCO 49ERS MONDAY NIGHT FOOTBALL EIGHT EASTERN HERE ON ABC AND ESPN AND IN OTHER FOOTBALL NEWS GRAMMY AWARD WINNER KENDRICK LAMAR IS SET TO POP OUT ON NFL'S BIGGEST STAGE NEXT FEBRUARY AT THE SUPER BOWL IN NEW ORLEANS. THEN THAT LIKE US RAPPER TOOK TO SOCIAL, MAKING THE ANNOUNCEMENT ALONGSIDE THE NFL'S ROC NATION AND APPLE MUSIC. LAMAR IS NOW THE ONLY RAPPER TO EVER SOLO HEADLINE THE SUPER BOWL. >> ABC NEWS CONTRIBUTOR SIRIUS XM RADIO HOST MIKE MUSE IS JOINING ME NOW FOR MORE ON THIS. MIKE, THANKS FOR COMING ON. KENDRICK LAMAR DOMINATED THIS SUMMER IN PART DUE TO HIS ONGOING WITH DRAKE. SO IS IT A RISKY MOVE FOR THE HALFTIME SHOW TO SEEMINGLY LEAN INTO THAT AND APPARENTLY TAKE A SIDE HERE? >> I KNOW IF IT'S RISKY IN THE SENSE OF INDIRECTLY LOOKING AT TAKING A SIDE, BUT IT IS IMPORTANT IN OUR CULTURE. IF YOU LOOK AT THE DATA, HIP-HOP IS ONE OF THE MOST CONSUMED GENRES CURRENTLY RIGHT NOW. AND IF YOU LOOK AT WHAT HAPPENED BETWEEN THE BEEF, KENDRICK AND DRAKE, IT REALLY ELEVATED HIP-HOP TO NEW AUDIENCES AND IT REALLY INFUSE NEW ENERGY INTO. HIP-HOP IN PARTICULAR, COMING OFF OF THE 50TH ANNIVERSARY OF THAT. SO IDEA THAT YOU WOULD HAVE PRESUMABLY WHAT EVERYONE SAYS IS THE WINNER OF THAT THAT RAP BATTLE WILL BE ON LARGEST STAGE WITH THE SUPER BOWL AVERAGING 140 MILLION VIEWS. TO HAVE KENDRICK THAT STAGE PERFORMING, IT'S HUGE FOR HIP-HOP IS HUGE FOR THE CULTURE AND IT IS REFLECTIVE OF JUST HOW BIG THAT MOMENT IS. >> THEY'RE UPSET THAT A NEW ORLEANS NATIVE ISN'T HEADLINING SINCE THAT'S WHERE THE GAME IS TAKING PLACE. LIL WAYNE'S ENGINEER POSTED THAT HE WAS CONFUSED AND ANGRY THAT LIL WAYNE WASN'T CHOSEN. WHAT DO YOU MAKE OF THAT AND SOME OF THE NEGATIVE REACTIONS? >> YEAH, NO, ABSOLUTELY. I UNDERSTAND EXACTLY HOW LITTLE WAYNE IS FEELING. BOTH CAN BE TRUE AND YOU CAN UPSET ABOUT LITTLE WAYNE NOT PERFORMING. FEEL LIKE LIL WAYNE SHOULD BE THERE BECAUSE. THAT IS HIS HOME. BUT SUPER BOWL IS ALL ABOUT THE BIG TEAMS, THE TWO BEST TEAMS IN THE NFL GOING HEAD TO HEAD FOR THIS BIG CULTURAL MOMENT. AND SO YOU WANT TO MAKE SURE THE ARTIST THAT IS PERFORMING IS MEET THE MEET THE OF THE PLAY ON THE FIELD. >> AND AT THIS MOMENT CURRENTLY NOW KENDRICK LAMAR IS THE BIGGEST MOMENT THAT WE HAVE RIGHT NOW IN CULTURE AND IN MUSIC FOR WHAT THAT REPRESENTS. SO THAT MADE SENSE FOR THAT SELECTION. SO BOTH CAN BE TRUE AT THE SAME TIME. I DO HOPE THE PRODUCER OF THE HALFTIME SHOW, JESSE COLLINS, FINDS A WAY TO INCLUDE LIL WAYNE IN SOME CAPACITY. DON'T KNOW HOW THAT WILL BE DONE, BUT IT WILL BE NICE TO SEE. >> ALL RIGHT. YOU'RE KIND OF LEADING TO MY NEXT QUESTION, WHICH IS KENDRICK HAS PERFORMED AT THE SUPER BOWL BEFORE. HE WAS THERE IN 2022 WITH A HOST OF OTHER HIP-HOP. SO LET'S TALK SPECIAL GUEST. WHO DO YOU THINK WE MIGHT SEE PERFORM BESIDE KENDRICK THIS TIME AROUND? >> I MEAN, POSSIBLY WAYNE, BUT ALSO TRUE KENDRICK IS. SUCH AN ART IS HE IS VERY THEATRICAL. IF YOU LOOK AT WHAT HE DID WHEN HE DID HIS LIVE FROM PARIS CONCERT ON AMAZON MUSIC, HIS THEATRICAL PERFORMANCE IS AMAZING. >> THE WAY HE DOES THE STAGING IS INCREDIBLE. AND IF YOU LOOK AT SOME OF THE FEATURES THAT HE'S ADDED IN SOME OF HIS VIDEOS, IN PARTICULAR, THEY'RE NOT LIKE US. YOU JUST NEVER KNOW WHAT IT IS. BUT I THINK IF IT'S GOING TO BE ANYBODY, IT'S GOING TO BE ARTISTS AND CULTURAL REPRESENTATIVES FROM LOS ANGELES, SOUTH CENTRAL LOS ANGELES AND COMPTON IN PARTICULAR, THAT THEY REALLY SEE A LOT OF WEST COAST REFERENCES AND POSSIBLY LIL WAYNE. >> IF WE SEE ANY FEATURES AT ALL. ALL RIGHT. WE'LL SEE MIKE MUSE, THANKS, FRIEND. >> THANK YOU. COMING UP, THE NEW SCHOOL YEAR AND THE RETURN TO A RIGOROUS ROUTINE AND TODAY'S MOTIVATION. MONDAY PELOTON'S, ALEX, U.S. TELLS US HOW TEACHERS AND PARENTS CAN MAKE SURE THEIR SELF CARE DOESN'T TAKE A BACKSEAT WHENEVER NEWS BREAKS. >> WE ARE HERE IN ISRAEL, A NATION AT WAR ENROLLING FOR THIS TORNADO THROUGH THIS TOWN FROM LEWISTON, MAINE, THE SCENE OF A HORRIFIC MASS FROM THE SCENE OF THAT DEADLY MISSILE STRIKE.

SO NOW THAT SCHOOL SEASON IS BACK IN SESSION, HOW DO YOU STICK TO A ROUTINE OR MAYBE CREATE A NEW ONE ONCE THE SCHEDULES START SHIFTING LIKE THEY DO THIS TIMEULE STARTS TO SHIFT, EVERYTHING GETS A LITTLE BIT CHAOTIC. >> WE NEED TO TAKE A SECOND AND JUST PAUSE AND REALIZE WE WOKE UP FIRST THING IN THE MORNING. JUST THAT LEVEL GRATITUDE COULD CANCEL OUT SO MUCH NEGATIVITY AND FEAR AND SO MUCH LEVEL OF MENTAL RESISTANCE THAT IF YOU GET INTO THIS MINDSET OF THE JUST STEMS MOTTO, YOU DON'T HAVE TO GET TO THAT OPPORTUNITY. THAT'S SHIFTING THAT PERSPECTIVE WILL ALLOW YOU, TO GET TO YOUR GOALS A LITTLE BIT EASIER. SO JUST HAVING THAT UNDERSTANDING OF YOU DON'T HAVE TO YOU GET TO IS A VERY BIG TOOL THAT I TRY TO TEACH PEOPLE IN A SENSE OF GETTING YOUR FITNESS ROUTINE OR ANYTHING STARTED THAT'S NEW. >> SO I DON'T HAVE TO GO WORKOUT. >> I GET YOU GET YOUR WORKOUT IS A BLESSING. YOU GET TO WHERE YOU GET TO GO TO. >> EXACTLY. WHAT'S YOUR MESSAGE TO TEACHERS AND PARENTS WHO MAY BE STRUGGLING TO SET REALISTIC GOALS BECAUSE YOU DON'T WANT TO SELL YOURSELF SHORT. BUT IF IT STARTS TO FEEL LIKE IT'S UNATTAINABLE.

SO WE PLAY EVERYTHING FROM WHITNEY HOUSTON REMIXES TO LITTLE JOHN REMIXES. WE WANT TO CREATE AN ENVIRONMENT EVERYBODY FEELS SEEN IN AND IN SYNC WITHIN THE CLUB.

HI, I'M DIANE MACEDO. WE HAVE BREAKING NEWS. PRINCESS KATE IS GIVING AN UPDATE ON HER SAYING HER CHEMOTHERAPY TREATMENT IS COMPLETE AND THAT HER FOCUS IS NOW ON STAYING CANCER FREE. THE PRINCESS STEPPED OUT OF THE PUBLIC EYE IN JANUARY TO UNDERGO ABDOMINAL SURGERY, WHICH WAS LATER LINKED A CANCER DIAGNOSIS. NOW SHE'S OPENING UP ABOUT A JOURNEY SHE CALLS SCARY AND COMPLEX AS THE SUMMER TO AN END. I CANNOT TELL YOU WHAT A RELIEF IT IS TO FINALLY COMPLETED MY CHEMOTHERAPY TREATMENT DOING . WHAT I CAN TO STAY CANCER FREE IS NOW MY FOCUS. ALTHOUGH I FINISHED CHEMOTHERAPY, MY PATH TO HEALING AND FULL RECOVERY IS LONG AND MUST CONTINUE TO TAKE EACH DAY AS IT COMES. I AM, HOWEVER, LOOKING FORWARD TO BEING BACK AT WORK AND A FEW MORE PUBLIC ENGAGEMENTS IN THE COMING MONTHS WHEN I CAN. ABC'S FOREIGN CORRESPONDENT MAGGIE RULLI JOINS ME NOW, ALONG WITH MEDICAL CORRESPONDENT DR. DARIEN SUTTON AND ABC NEWS ROYAL CONTRIBUTOR VICTORIA MURPHY. FOR MORE. MARY, LET'S START WITH THE HERE . >> WHAT ARE YOU HEARING ABOUT THE PRINCESS, HIS CONDITION ANY DAY? WELL, I THINK WHAT'S REALLY IMPORTANT HERE IS THAT WE JUST HEARD FROM THE PRINCESS IN HER OWN WORDS. YOU KNOW, SO OFTEN WE HEAR STATEMENTS FROM THE PALACE OR GET IT INDIRECTLY, BUT THIS WAS PRINCESS KATE RELEASING, A VIDEO, I THINK, REALLY WANTING TO SPEAK DIRECTLY TO THE PUBLIC. AND WE HER THANK THE PUBLIC FOR THEIR SUPPORT. AND I THINK THIS WAS HER CHANCE TO. GIVE THEM A RARE AND INTIMATE GLIMPSE INTO HOW SHE'S DOING. AND SHE WAS VERY HONEST. YOU KNOW, SHE TALKED ABOUT HER VULNERABILITIES. SHE TALKS ABOUT THE FACT THAT SHE IS DONE WITH HER CHEMOTHERAPY TREATMENT, BUT THAT THE PATH TO RECOVERY IS LONG. AND I THINK THAT'S ALSO IMPORTANT TO NOTE HERE THAT WHILE THIS IS A CAUSE FOR HAPPINESS. YOU KNOW, CLEARLY THIS VIDEO, IT'S CALM, IT'S PEACEFUL, IT'S REFLECTIVE. IT'S A CHANCE TO CELEBRATE THE LOVE OF A FAMILY. IT'S ALSO AN ACKNOWLEDGMENT THAT, YOU KNOW, THIS HAS BEEN A LONG JOURNEY AND IT'S A JOURNEY THAT SHE'S GOING TO CONTINUE TO BE ON. AND WHILE SHE'S EXCITED TO GET BACK TO WORK. SHE SAYS, YOU KNOW, IT'S GOING TO BE IN A LIMITED FASHION, THE BEGINNING, AND SHE'S GOING TO KEEP WORKING ONE DAY AT A TIME. AND SO I THINK GETTING THAT UPDATE FROM THE PRINCESS IN HER OWN WORDS, IN HER OWN VOICE IS REALLY IMPACTFUL. >> DIANE DR. SUTTON, SHE SAYS SHE'S COMPLETED CHEMOTHERAPY. WALK US THROUGH WHAT THAT MEANS AND WHAT PATIENTS WHO COMPLETE THIS KIND OF TREATMENT IN GENERAL CAN EXPECT. >> YEAH. SO PREVENTATIVE CAN BE IN DIFFERENT THINGS FROM ONE PATIENT TO ANOTHER, DEPENDING ON THEIR HISTORY, THE DIAGNOSIS AND THE PLAN AFTERWARDS. SOMETIMES AFTER PREVENTATIVE IS COMPLETED, PATIENTS WILL UNDERGO SURGERY OR RADIATION OR. OTHER METHODS TO ASSURE THAT ALL CANCER, IF ANY, WAS DETECTED PRIOR, ELIMINATED, AND ALSO WITH THE GOAL OF PREVENTING ANY NEW CANCER FROM FORMING THE STEPS HERE THAT HAPPEN AFTER THIS OF THE RECOVERY CHEMOTHERAPY CAN A DEBILITATING PROCESS ON THE BODY. SO MANY ARE LEFT IN REHABILITATION OR SOME OTHER FORM OF REHABILITATION, WHETHER THAT BE AT HOME OR WITHIN A CONTROLLED. >> REGARDLESS THAT TIME, THAT PIECE OF COMFORT IS NEEDED AND. WHEN YOU SAY PREVENTATIVE, IN THIS CASE, SHE DID HAVE A CANCER DIAGNOSIS. SO IS THIS SORT OF LIKE EXTRA CHEMO TO TRY TO KEEP THE CANCER FROM COMING BACK, THAT'S ESSENTIALLY THE THOUGHT PROCESS HERE, GIVEN THE FACT THAT WE DON'T KNOW WHAT TYPE OF CANCER. WE HAD EVERY PLAN OR PROCEDURE OR PLAN OR METHOD THAT'S PLANNED AFTER DIAGNOSIS IS DIFFERENT. AGAIN, SPECIFIC TO THE PATIENT. IN THEIR CASE. BUT YES, THAT'S VERY MUCH THE GOAL. AT PREVENTATIVE CHEMO, THERE ARE TWO PRIMARY GOALS, EITHER TO PREVENT NEW CANCER FROM FROM FORMING AND ALSO TO MAKE SURE THAT ANY CANCER THAT HAS BEEN REMOVED IS FULLY ELIMINATED. >> VICTORIA, LET'S TALK A LITTLE BIT ABOUT THE MESSAGE, BECAUSE WE HEARD TALKING ABOUT THE PERSONAL NATURE HERE, HEARING THE PRINCESS IN HER WORDS, IT'S UNUSUAL FOR THE ROYALS TO RELEASE A VIDEO LIKE THIS. >> SO WHAT DID YOU MAKE OF THAT CHOICE? AND DO YOU THINK WE'LL SEE MORE HER IN THE PUBLIC EYE GOING FORWARD NOW? >> HONESTLY, DIANE, TO MY MIND, THIS MESSAGE WAS REALLY, TRULY EXTRAORDINARY. >> WE'VE HAD MESSAGES FROM HER BEFORE, PERSONAL MESSAGES, INCLUDING ABOUT HER CANCER DIAGNOSIS. AND WE'VE HAD VIDEOS BEFORE FROM THE ROYAL FAMILY. BUT BRINGING THESE TWO THINGS TOGETHER, TALKING ON SUCH A PERSONAL TOPIC AND SHOWING US SO MUCH OF THE FAMILY BEHIND THE SCENES, I THINK REALLY LIKE NOTHING WE'VE EVER SEEN BEFORE. AND THIS VIDEO, YOU WATCH IT, YOU KNOW, IT'S INCREDIBLY MOVING, IT'S INCREDIBLY EMOTIONAL AND IT'S REALLY, REALLY INTIMATE. WE'RE SEEING THE FAMILY TRULY BEHIND SCENES IN THE HOME. WE'RE SEEING HER AND WILLIAM LYING DOWN TOGETHER, HUGGING ARE NOT THE KIND OF THINGS THAT WE SEE OR WE'VE EVEN EVER SEEN BEFORE FEEL. AND THE FACT THAT HER PARENTS ARE IN THE VIDEO AS WELL. NOW, HER PARENTS DO NOT HAVE ANY PUBLIC ROLE. THEY'RE NOT PUBLIC FIGURES. AND I THINK THAT SHOWS YOU JUST PERSONAL AND JUST HOW INTIMATE THIS IS FOR HER. SHE HAS BEEN VERY OPEN. SHE'S BEEN VERY OPEN ABOUT HOW SHE'S FELT ABOUT HER JOURNEY, ABOUT HOW DIFFICULT SHE'S FOUND IT, HOW HARD IT'S BEEN ON HER FAMILY. BUT SHE STILL HASN'T DISCLOSED ANY MORE SPECIFICS ABOUT HER DIAGNOSIS. AND I DON'T THINK THAT'S GOING TO HAPPEN. AND MAGGIE, SHE SAYS SHE PLANS TO RETURN TO WORK, BUT IT SOUNDS LIKE SHE'S GOING SLOW AND STEADY. SO WHAT DO YOU THINK WE'LL SEE FROM HER? WELL, EXACTLY, DIANE KNOW, I THINK SHE MADE THAT POINT CLEAR. SHE IS ON THE ROAD TO RECOVERY RIGHT NOW. SHE'S STILL GOING DAY BY DAY. SHE DID SAY SHE LOOKS FORWARD TO GETTING BACK TO WORK. AND I THINK, YOU KNOW, KATE HAS BEEN IN THE PUBLIC EYE FOR SO MANY YEARS NOW. I THINK SHE GENUINELY DOES WANT TO GET BACK OUT THERE. SO SHE SAID WE SHOULD EXPECT TO SEE HER AT SOME PUBLIC ENGAGEMENTS IN A WORKING CAPACITY BEFORE THE END OF THE YEAR. YOU KNOW WHAT EXACTLY THAT MEANS? WHAT IT LOOKS LIKE. IT'S STILL UP IN THE AIR WE HAVE SEEN HER A LITTLE BIT SINCE SHE ANNOUNCED HER CANCER DIAGNOSIS BACK IN. WE SAW HER AT WIMBLEDON WHERE SHE RECEIVED A STANDING OVATION . WE SAW HER AT TROOPING THE COLOR CELEBRATE THE KING'S BIRTHDAY. WE ALSO SAW HER RECENTLY ATTENDING CHURCH IN BALMORAL. SHE'S ALSO RELEASED VIDEOS ON SOCIAL MEDIA, MORE RECENTLY CONGRATULATING THE UK'S OLYMPIC TEAM. SO AND SHE SAYS SHE'S BEEN WORKING FROM HOME. SO WE KNOW THAT SHE'S BEEN INVOLVED EVEN WHILE SHE WAS GOING THROUGH THIS CHEMOTHERAPY. I THINK NOW THAT SHE'S BEEN ABLE TO ANNOUNCE IT'S COMPLETE, IT'S JUST KIND OF IN THE NEXT PHASE OF HER RECOVERY. >> WE SHOULD EXPECT TO SEE QUITE A BIT MORE FROM HER. DIANE ALL MAGGIE RULLI. >> VICTORIA MURPHY DR. SUTTON. THANK YOU ALL. AND WE HAVE BREAKING NEWS NOW IN THE UNIVERSITY OF IDAHO MURDER CASE. THE JUDGE HAS GRANTED SUSPECT BRIAN KOHBERGER A CHANGE OF VENUE, HIS UPCOMING TRIAL. THE DEFENSE ARGUED THAT THE POTENTIAL JURY WOULD NOT BE ABLE TO RETURN AN UNBIASED VERDICT GIVEN THE EXTENSIVE MEDIA COVERAGE AND THE GRUESOME NATURE OF THE KILLINGS. KOHBERGER IS ACCUSED OF BRUTALLY MURDERING FOUR UNIVERSITY OF IDAHO STUDENTS IN A DORM IN NOVEMBER 2022. THE NEW VENUE FOR THE TRIAL HAS YET TO BE DETERMINED. LET'S BRING IN ABC NEWS LEGAL CONTRIBUTOR BRIAN BUCKMIRE MORE ON THIS. BRIAN, WHAT DO YOU MAKE OF THIS DECISION GIVEN THE ARGUMENTS ON BOTH SIDES HERE AND THE NATURE OF THE CASE? >> WAS THIS THE RIGHT CALL? I DON'T I THINK THIS IS THE RIGHT CALL AFTER WATCHING A VERY EXTENSIVE ARGUMENT BY THE DEFENSE THAT WAS RIDDLED WITH EXPERTS AND A SURVEY THAT THEY GAVE OUT TO THE COMMUNITY. I THINK DID REACH THE VERDICT, AS THIS JUDGE HAS AGREED, OF A PRESUMED PREJUDICE, THAT THE AMOUNT OF INFORMATION THAT LAY TODD COUNTY HAS GONE WAY MORE THAN THE REST OF THE STATE WOULD CREATE PREJUDICE. AND THAT'S WHY I WOULD HAVE TO BE. AND THE PROSECUTION DIDN'T EVEN REALLY GIVE MUCH MORE AS A PUSHBACK. SO MAKES SENSE. >> BRIAN, WHAT KIND OF CRITERIA DO YOU USUALLY NEED TO MEET THAT THAT YOU'RE TALKING ABOUT IN ORDER TO GET THIS KIND OF CHANGE OF VENUE MET? BECAUSE THE DEFENSE HAD DONE THIS SURVEY, WHICH THE PROSECUTION REALLY TRIED TO DISMISS. >> SO WHAT DO YOU THINK ULTIMATELY PUSHED THIS OVER THE EDGE? >> YES, IT'S THE STANDARD. AND ACTUALLY THE JUDGE SAID THAT IN END, THE DECISION A VERY LOW STANDARD. MOST PEOPLE ARE FAMILIAR BEYOND A REASONABLE DOUBT WHEN IT COMES TO A CRIMINAL CASE. THAT'S WHERE A CONVICTION, THE STANDARD TO GET A CASE MOVE FROM ONE VENUE TO THE NEXT IS WHAT'S CALLED REASONABLE, LIKELY OR LIKELY REASONABLE, SORRY, STANDARD IN ENGLISH. IT'S BASICALLY THAT'S LIKELY POSSIBLE TO HAPPEN. SO IT'S LIKELY POSSIBLE THAT THERE WOULD BE A PREJUDICED JURY IN LATER COUNTY. AND THE JUDGE IS SAYING, YES, THAT'S A VERY LOW STANDARD. AND SO THAT'S WHY IT'S BEING MOVED FROM THIS VENUE TO ANOTHER. WE DON'T KNOW WHICH ONE YET. IT'S GOING TO GO TO THE SUPREME COURT OF, THE OF THE STATE, AND THEY WILL DECIDE WHERE IT SHOULD GO. >> SO WHAT DOES THIS MEAN, THE TRIAL NOW, THIS MEANS THAT THE PROSECUTION AND THE DEFENSE WILL HEAR FROM THE SUPREME COURT, THEY WILL DECIDE WHAT COUNTY IT GOES TO. WE KNOW THAT ADA COUNTY IS A VERY POPULAR COUNTY FOR THIS STATE. WE SAW THE DOOMSDAY A COUPLE PARENTS BEING PROSECUTED IN THAT CASE. AND SO THEY HAVE THE RESOURCES, THEY HAVE THE SIZE, THEY HAVE EVERYTHING THAT THEY CAN DO. WE MIGHT SEE A COURT CASE THERE. AND THEN BOTH THE DEFENSE PROSECUTION WILL HAVE TO TRANSPORT ALL OF THEIR INFORMATION THERE. AND HAVE TO UP THEIR SECURITY, AND THEN WE MIGHT HAVE A TRIAL THERE. >> ALL RIGHT. ABC NEWS LEGAL CONTRIBUTOR BRIAN BUCKMIRE, THANK YOU. >> MY PLEASURE. >> VICE PRESIDENT HARRIS AND FORMER PRESIDENT TRUMP ARE SET FACE OFF ON THE DEBATE STAGE FOR THE FIRST TIME TOMORROW NIGHT. >> HARRIS SAYS SHE'S READY AFTER HUNKERING DOWN FOR INTENSE DEBATE PREP. MEANWHILE, TRUMP IS HOLDING INFORMAL POLICY SESSIONS WITH A SMALL TEAM OF ADVISERS. >> WE HAVE FULL TEAM COVERAGE. JUST ONE DAY LEFT UNTIL THE DEBATES, STARTING WITH ABC'S JAY O'BRIEN PHILADELPHIA. JAY THE STAGE IS LITERALLY SET. SO WHAT MORE YOU TELL US ABOUT HOW TRUMP IS PREPARING FOR THIS DEBATE AND WHAT'S AT STAKE FOR HIM RIGHT NOW? >> WELL, DIANE, WE KNOW THAT THE FORMER PRESIDENT HAS HUDDLED WITH ADVISERS AT MAR A LAGO, HAD THESE KIND OF WHAT THE CAMPAIGN IS CHARACTERIZING AS INFORMAL POLICY CONVERSATIONS, NOT QUOTE UNQUOTE, DEBATE PREP, AS IT IS TYPICALLY DONE WITH, YOU KNOW, SOMEONE PLAYING THE PART OF YOUR OPPONENT. AND THESE MOCK DEBATE SESSIONS. THE CAMPAIGN SAYS TRUMP IS NOT DOING THAT, BUT HE IS TALKING AND KIND OF GETTING QUESTIONS PEPPERED AT HIM. SOURCES HAVE TOLD ABC NEWS BY ADVISERS LIKE TULSI GABBARD, THE FORMER CONGRESSWOMAN WHO HAS DEBATED KAMALA HARRIS WHEN THEY WERE BOTH RUNNING FOR THE DEMOCRATIC NOMINATION IN THE 2020 ELECTION CYCLE. AND THEN MATT GAETZ, WHO'S A CONSERVATIVE AND SOMEONE WHO COULD POTENTIALLY TALK TO TRUMP'S MORE BASE, ARE COUNTERPUNCHER. POLITICAL BARE KNUCKLE POLITICS, INSTINCTS. BUT THE BUT THE OTHER THING TO KEEP IN MIND HERE IS THAT THIS IS A DEBATE THAT COULD RESHAPE THE LANDSCAPE OF THIS RACE. THE LAST DEBATE RESHAPED THE LANDSCAPE OF THIS RACE WHEN IT WAS TRUMP AND BIDEN. AND NOW THIS IS THE SCHEDULED MATCHUP AT THE MOMENT BETWEEN TRUMP AND HARRIS. THE OTHER THING TO KEEP IN MIND IS THAT THESE ARE TWO CANDIDATES WHO HAVE NEVER EVEN IN PERSON, DIANE. NOW, JUST ABOUT A DAY FROM NOW ,THEY WILL BE ON STAGE, JUST ABOUT ARM'S LENGTH FROM EACH OTHER, FACING OFF FOR THE FIRST TIME. >> NOW, VICE PRESIDENT HARRIS HAS ONLY DONE ONE UNSCRIPTED EVENT, ONE INTERVIEW SINCE BECOMING THE NOMINEE. >> HOW HIGH ARE THE STAKES FOR HER TOMORROW, GIVEN HOW MANY VOTERS ARE SAYING THAT THEY FEEL LIKE THEY DON'T KNOW HER ALL THAT WELL? WELL, LOOK, THE STAKES ARE HIGH AGAIN WITH THOSE UNDECIDED VOTERS, THOSE VOTERS WHO THE JURY IS STILL SOMEWHAT OUT WITH. THEY COULD SWING THIS RACE, PARTICULARLY IN SOME OF THOSE SWING STATES LIKE RIGHT HERE IN PENNSYLVANIA, MICHIGAN, WISCONSIN, ETC.. BUT THE OTHER THING TO KEEP IN MIND IS THAT THE TRUMP CAMPAIGN HAS BEEN THE ONES PROPAGATING THAT NARRATIVE REALLY THAT HARRIS HASN'T DONE A LOT OF UNSCRIPTED. THEY'RE THE ONES THAT KEEP USING IT TO KNOCK HER, THEY SAY, BUT SHE'S NOT DOING THE KINDS OF PRESS CONFERENCES THAT TRUMP HAS. SHE'S NOT DOING THE KINDS OF INTERVIEWS THAT TRUMP HAS. AND SO BECAUSE THEY PUSH FORWARD THIS NARRATIVE, THEY ESSENTIALLY SET THE EXPECTATIONS FOR HER THAT IF SHE SHOWS UP AND SHE'S TO DELIVER IN AN UNSCRIPTED FORMAT, IT MIGHT CUT AGAINST THOSE EXPECTATIONS THAT THE TRUMP CAMPAIGN HAS REALLY SET UP FOR HER HERE. SO FOR DONALD, THE QUESTION HANGING OVER HIM IS, AS OFTEN IS THE CASE WITH DONALD TRUMP. WHICH TRUMP DO YOU GET ON THE STAGE? DO YOU GET THE TRUMP THAT STICKS ON MESSAGE OR DO YOU GET THE DONALD TRUMP THAT LASHES OUT? FOR KAMALA HARRIS, THE QUESTION HANGING OVER HER IS, IS SHE ABLE TO BRING IT? WE KNOW THAT SHE IS A STRONG DEBATER. SHE HAS DEBATED IN THE PAST AND HAD HIGH POINT MOMENTS IN THE DEMOCRATIC PRIMARIES, FOR INSTANCE. BUT IS SHE ABLE TO CONTINUE THAT MOMENTUM AND BE THAT KIND OF COUNTERPUNCHER IN THE FACE OF DONALD TRUMP, WHO IS SOMEONE WHO TO GET UP IN HIS OPPONENT'S FACE ON A DEBATE STAGE? ALL RIGHT, JAY O'BRIEN IN PHILADELPHIA, THANK YOU. AN EDITOR OF THE NATIONAL REVIEW, RAMESH PONNURU JOINS ME NOW, ALONG WITH ABC NEWS CONTRIBUTOR CHRISTINA SINCE SOON RAMIREZ FOR MORE. RAMESH, TRUMP APPEARED TO ACKNOWLEDGE HE LOST THE 2020 ELECTION DURING A PODCAST INTERVIEW. >> I WANT TO PLAY THAT CLIP YOU. >> I'VE DONE WELL WITH DEBATES. I MEAN I BECAME PRESIDENT THE SECOND TIME. I GOT MILLIONS MORE VOTES THAN I GOT THE FIRST TIME. I WAS TOLD IF I GOT 63 MILLION, WHICH IS WHAT I GOT THE FIRST TIME, YOU YOU, YOU WOULD YOU CAN'T NOT WIN. AND I GOT MILLIONS OF MORE VOTES THAN THAT. AND LOST BY A WHISKER. >> LOST BY A WHISKER. HE THEN LATER SAID IN THAT SAME INTERVIEW, RAMESH, THAT HE THINKS THE ELECTION WAS A FRAUD . SO WHAT DID YOU MAKE OF THAT? WAS THIS A SLIP UP? IS THIS PART OF THE STRATEGY? WHAT YOU THINK? >> WELL, TRUMP HAS NEVER BEEN PARTICULARLY COHERENT OR COMPELLING ON THE OF HIS DEFEAT IN 2020. I THINK HE HAS BEEN MUCH MORE LIKELY TO SAY THAT IT WAS STOLEN FROM HIM AND THAT IF HE LOST, IT WAS BECAUSE OF ILLEGAL VOTES, THOUGH THAT IS TO SAY THAT HE DIDN'T REALLY LOSE. EVEN THOUGH, OF COURSE, ALL THE EVIDENCE WE HAVE SUGGESTS THAT HE WAS DEFEATED, FAIR AND SQUARE IN THE SENSE THAT THE VOTES WERE LEGALLY CAST AND ACCURATELY COUNTED. >> NOW, CHRISTINE, AND NEARLY 30% OF PEOPLE POLLED SAY THEY WANT TO KNOW MORE ABOUT HARRIS. SO WHAT DO YOU EXPECT HER TO DO TOMORROW TO TRY TO SHOW VOTERS THAT SHOW THEM WHERE HER POLICY STANCES AND WHO SHE IS AS A CANDIDATE? >> AND THIS IS GOING BE PROBABLY THE MOST WATCHED DEBATE IN AMERICAN HISTORY AND THAT NUMBER OF CLOSE TO A THIRD OF THE ELECTORATE SAYING THEY WANT TO LEARN MORE ABOUT HER IS, A GREAT OPPORTUNITY FOR HER. SHE IS EIGHT ABSOLUTELY STRONG DEBATER AND WE KNOW DONALD TRUMP CAN EASILY BE RATTLED THAT HE REALLY PROBABLY WILL STRUGGLE TO NOT MAKE PERSONAL ATTACKS AGAINST HER, WHICH WE KNOW A LOT OF VOTERS DON'T LIKE THAT THEY ARE SICK OF THE VITRIOL, DIVISION AND CHAOS THAT COMES WITH DONALD TRUMP. SO I THINK WE'RE GOING TO SEE HER NOT ONLY PUT OUT A CLEAR VISION OF WHAT SHE STANDS FOR, BUT PROBABLY BE ABLE TO GO DONALD TRUMP INTO ,YOU KNOW, MAKING THESE PERSONAL ATTACKS, SAYING INCOHERENT THINGS AND OFF MESSAGE. >> AND RAMESH, A POLL FROM "THE WASHINGTON POST", AN IPSOS FOUND A LARGE MAJORITY OF BLACK REGISTERED VOTERS SAY THEY WILL EITHER DEFINITELY OR PROBABLY VOTE FOR HARRIS DURING AN INTERVIEW WITH NEW YORK MAGAZINE, THEN CLAIMED THAT HE DIDN'T TALK MUCH ABOUT HARRIS, HIS RACIAL IDENTITY, DESPITE HE REPEATEDLY EMPHASIZING THAT HER INDIAN HERITAGE AND HE DISMISSED HER IDENTITY AS A BLACK PERSON. >> WHAT DO YOU MAKE OF HIS RHETORIC HERE AND HOW BIG OF A PROBLEM IS THIS IN GENERAL? >> TRUMP? WELL, I THINK BOTH FROM A CIVIC PERSPECTIVE AND FROM THE PERSPECTIVE OF HIS OWN SELF-INTEREST, IT'S GOOD THAT HE IS BACKING OFF FROM DUMB AND AN OBNOXIOUS LINE OF ATTACK. I DO THINK THAT TRUMP IS ON TRACK TO POST BETTER NUMBERS THAN REPUBLICANS USUALLY DO AMONG AFRICAN-AMERICANS AND ALSO AMONG HISPANICS. HE'S NOT GOING TO GET A MAJORITY OF EITHER VOTE, BUT THE MARGINS ARE GOING TO MATTER, PARTICULARLY IN STATES WHERE YOU'VE GOT A LARGER NONWHITE POPULATION. AND THEY COULD MAKE DIFFERENCE . >> SO, CRISTINA, HOW DO YOU EXPECT HARRIS TO USE HER SKILLS AS A PROSECUTOR IN THIS DEBATE AGAINST TRUMP? SHE HAS SORT OF MIXED REVIEWS IN DEBATES IN THE PAST. >> WELL, I THINK WE'RE GOING TO SEE HER AGAIN, A STRONG DEBATER. >> SHE'S GOING TO PROSECUTE A CASE AGAINST DONALD TRUMP ABOUT WHAT A SECOND TERM WOULD LOOK LIKE AND MEAN TO THE AMERICAN. WE SEE ABORTION STILL BEING A VERY TOP ISSUE, ESPECIALLY WOMEN ACROSS THE COUNTRY, ESPECIALLY IN ITS KEY BATTLEGROUND STATES LIKE GEORGIA AND ARIZONA. AND SO SHE'S GOING TO BRING THAT TO THE FOREFRONT. SHE'S GOING TO TALK ABOUT DEMOCRACY AND ALSO HER ECONOMIC PLAN AND VISION, WHICH WE KNOW IS SO IMPORTANT TO SO MANY AMERICANS. I THINK, YOU KNOW, LAST DEBATE, IT WAS UNCLEAR WHO WAS GOING TO WIN AHEAD OF TIME. BUT HANDS DOWN, I THINK WE'RE GOING TO SEE KAMALA HARRIS COME OUT OF DEBATE VERY STRONG. TRUMP IS NOT ACTUALLY A STRONG DEBATER AND SO I THINK WE'RE GOING TO SEE THAT AT THE PINNACLE OF ALL OF THE DEBATES HE'S EVER HAD. THIS WILL PROBABLY BE THE WORST DEBATE HE EVER HAS. >> ALL RIGHT. WE'LL SEE CRISTINA TZINTZUN RAMIREZ OR NOT. RAMESH PONNURU, THANK BOTH. >> THE FIRST PRESIDENTIAL DEBATE BETWEEN FORMER PRESIDENT TRUMP AND VICE PRESIDENT HARRIS IS TOMORROW NIGHT. YOU CAN WATCH IT RIGHT HERE ON ABC NEWS LIVE WITH COVERAGE STARTING AT 9 P.M. EASTERN. >> COMING UP, A MASSIVE WILDFIRE ACROSS SOUTHERN CALIFORNIA. >> THE AREA IS BEING EVACUATED AND WHAT FIREFIGHTERS IS MAKING THIS FIRE SO HARD TO CONTROL. IT WAS A REGULAR DAY FOR 19-YEAR-OLD MELISSA WITH SOMETHING TERRIBLE WOULD HAPPEN TO HER. YOU HAD SUSPECTS, ALL THESE KINDS OF LEADS, KNOWN SERIAL KILLER IN YOUR AREA. COULD HE BE INVOLVED? WE'RE ACTUALLY FINDING EVIDENCE THAT COULD HAVE SLIPPED THROUGH THE CRACKS. >> HER LAST HOURS, THIS EARTH WITH HER HONORIFIC, THIS BEAUTIFUL CANDLE, POLICE WILL FIND OUT WHAT HAPPENED AT WIT'S END. THE HUNT FOR A KILLER. ONLY ON HULU TOMORROW NIGHT. THE MOST CONSEQUENTIAL MOMENT OF THIS CAMPAIGN. KAMALA HARRIS GOT. WE WILL TAKE IT AWAY. OH, DONALD TRUMP. WE WILL SOON BE A GREAT NATION AGAIN. FACE TO FACE. HISTORIC. THE ABC NEWS PRESIDENTIAL DEBATE MODERATED BY DAVID MUIR AND LINSEY DAVIS TOMORROW NIGHT LIVE ON ABC AND STREAMING ON ABC NEWS LIVE KUMU AND DISNEY PLUS THE ABC NEWS PRESIDENTIAL DEBATE. WELCOME BACK TO ABC NEWS LIVE. FIRST, FRANCINE IS NOW A TROPICAL STORM THREATENING MILLIONS ALONG THE GULF COAST. THE FORECAST TO BECOME A HURRICANE BEFORE IT REACHES THE NORTHWESTERN GULF COAST WEEK AND COULD DROP UP TO 12 INCHES OF RAIN ON PARTS OF TEXAS AND, LOUISIANA. AND OUT WEST, HIGH WINDS AND RECORD TEMPS ARE FUELING THE FAST GROWING LINE WILDFIRE IN SOUTHERN CALIFORNIA. IT'S ALREADY BURNED MORE THAN 20,000 ACRES IN LESS THAN FOUR DAYS. AND FOR MORE ON BOTH OF THE THREATS, LET'S BRING IN ABC NEWS METEOROLOGIST MARA THEODORE, AS FAR AS CAN WE EXPECT HERE. >> ALL RIGHT. SO LET ME START WITH TROPICAL STORM FRANCINE, BECAUSE THIS JUST HAPPENED RECENTLY. WE NOW HAVE A NAMED STORM, OUR SIXTH NAMED STORM OF THE SEASON. KEEP IN MIND, SEPTEMBER 10TH IS THE PEAK OF HURRICANE SEASON. SO TOMORROW WE'RE PEAKING. SO THIS IS RIGHT ON TIME. IT'S NORMAL TO SEE ANOTHER STORM FORMING THIS TIME OF YEAR IN THIS SEASON. OKAY. SO YOU'RE LOOKING AT THE SATELLITE IMAGERY HERE. WE'RE GOING TO SHOW YOU THE PATH AND WHERE FRANCINE IS INTENDED TO GO. >> SO YOU CAN SEE IT'LL CONTINUE TO STRENGTHEN. THIS IS VERY WARM WATER. THE SEA SURFACE TEMPERATURES HERE ARE ACTUALLY ABOVE AVERAGE FOR WHERE THEY SHOULD BE. AND SO WE WILL SEE THIS INTENSIFY EVEN IN THIS SHORT DURATION OF OF TRACKING. AND IT COULD INTENSIFY TO A CATEGORY ONE HURRICANE, AT WHICH POINT THEY'RE MAKING LANDFALL ANYWHERE WITHIN THIS OF UNCERTAINTY FROM FAR WESTERN LOUISIANA CLOSE TO NEW ORLEANS. AND THEN WHAT'S LEFT WILL HEAD UP TOWARDS PLACES LIKE ARKANSAS MEMPHIS. OKAY. NOW, TIMING THIS OUT WHEN, IS THIS ALL GOING TO HIT? >> SO THIS IS TUESDAY, 12 P.M.. NOTICE HOW SOME OF THE OUTER RAIN BANDS ARE ALREADY REACHING PLACES LIKE GALVESTON INTO PARTS OF HOUSTON, BEAUMONT, AND THEN BY 6 A.M. WEDNESDAY, THE CORE OF THE STORM IS GETTING CLOSER AND CLOSER TO THE LOUISIANA COASTLINE. BY LATE WEDNESDAY AND THEN INTO THURSDAY MORNING, WE'LL START TO SEE THIS DRIVE INLAND. OKAY. SO WE'RE LOOKING AROUND WEDNESDAY AFTERNOON FOR LANDFALL. THAT TIMING, GIVE OR TAKE JUST A BIT. AND WE COULD SEE A GOOD AMOUNT OF RAIN FROM THIS. UPWARDS OF TEN INCHES OF RAIN IS CERTAINLY POSSIBLE THIS STORM SYSTEM. SO FLOODING WILL BE THE BIGGEST THREAT ALONG WITH LIFE THREATENING STORM SURGE. DIANE, IS WHAT WE'RE CONCERNED ABOUT BEFORE IT DRIVES FURTHER INLAND. >> LIKE I, DIANE, WE'RE STILL IN THE THROES OF HURRICANE SEASON. IT PEAKS TOMORROW. THE FOLKS IN CITIES LIKE LAKE CHARLES, NEW ORLEANS, BATON ROUGE, BEAUMONT AND EVEN HOUSTON, WHEN IT COMES TO SOME OF, THE RAINFALL JUST NEED TO BE PREPARED AND READY AS WE HEAD INTO. ALL RIGHT.

IT'S 911. YOU'VE RUNNING OUT WITH AN AMERICAN FLAG LIKE EVERYBODY IN THEIR MOM IS WATCHING LIKE THIS AMAZING STORYLINE THAT'S ABOUT TO UNFOLD. AND THEN WHAM, OBVIOUSLY WE ALL GET CHEATED OUT OF IT. BUT I'M CURIOUS, I'M CURIOUS, THOUGH, A YEAR LATER NOW, LIKE, WELL, LIKE ARE YOUR MEMORIES THAT DAY LIKE WHAT'S. YEAH, YOU KNOW, IT'S KIND OF A BLUR HONESTLY, I KNEW WHEN I WAS ON THE GROUND THAT SOMETHING WAS WRONG AND SOMETIMES YOU GET DRILLED AND YOU KNOW OFF AND YOU JUST KIND OF HOPE YOU GET UP AND IT KIND OF LIKE SHAKES ITSELF OUT ,YOU KNOW LIKE, OH, OKAY, WELL, THAT'S JUST A SPRAINED MEAL, THE ANKLE THAT'S, YOU KNOW, GOING TO WALK OFF. BUT WHEN I STOOD UP, I, I KNEW IT. AND THEN JUST THINKING THAT'S GOING TO BE THE LAST TIME, YOU KNOW, BECAUSE I KNOW I'M OLD AND THE REHAB I KNOW I KNEW WAS GOING TO BE TOUGH. AND SO IN THE TRAINING ROOM, I REALLY THOUGHT,, THAT'S HOW I'M GOING TO GO OUT THERE. >> THE INJURY, CRUSHING THE DREAMS OF JETS FANS WHO HOPED THE FOUR TIME MVP WOULD TURN AROUND A TEAM THAT HASN'T THE PLAYOFFS SINCE 2010 AND HASN'T WON A SUPER BOWL SINCE 69. >> YEAH. I MEAN, IT'S BEEN A TOUGH IT'S BEEN A TOUGH YEAR. IT'S PROBABLY BEEN THE BEST YEAR IN MY LIFE. SO AT THE SAME TIME, WHEN YOU GET HURT IN A SIGNIFICANT WAY.

THOSE ARE EXCITING TIMES, BUT THE MENTAL PART TAKES FOREVER BECAUSE YOU'RE STILL TRYING TO GET OVER THE FRUSTRATION, THE HEARTACHE, THE HEARTBREAK, THE WHAT IF THE WHAT COULD HAVE BEEN THE EXCITEMENT, FEELING LIKE YOU LET PEOPLE DOWN YOU STILL WONDER, CAN I GO OUT THERE AND DO IT UNTIL YOU'VE IT NOW? TRAINING CAMP WAS AWESOME FOR ME BECAUSE I HAD ONE OF THE BETTER CAMPS I'VE HAD. I JUST FELT LIKE. BUT EVERY DAY I SAW ONE OF THE COACHES. EVERY DAY I GOT TO REMIND MYSELF I'M GREAT. I GOT GO OUT THERE, REMIND MYSELF I CAN DO THIS. IT'S BEEN A COUPLE OF YEARS SINCE I PLAYED, YOU KNOW, FULL GAME. >> RODGERS SAYS HE'S GRATEFUL FOR THE EXPERIENCE IT WAS A TOTAL RESET FOR MY LIFE AND I'M SO THANKFUL FOR IT IN THE MOMENT. NEVER THINK, YOU KNOW, I NEVER SAID I DON'T EVEN LIKE THE SAYING. EVERYTHING HAPPENS FOR A REASON BECAUSE I'M LIKE, REALLY? YEAH. BUT I DO BELIEVE.

TOMORROW NIGHT THE MOST CONSEQUENCE YOUR MOMENT OF THIS CAMPAIGN. KAMALA HARRIS YOU GOT THERE. WE WILL TALK IN NO WAY OVER DONALD. WE WILL SOON BE A GREAT NATION AGAIN. FACE TO FACE, HISTORIC. THE NEWS PRESIDENTIAL DEBATE MODERATED BY DAVID MUIR AND. LINSEY DAVIS TOMORROW NIGHT LIVE ON ABC AND STREAMING ON ABC NEWS LIVE, HULU AND DISNEY. PLUS THE ABC NEWS PRESIDENTIAL DEBATE. WELCOME BACK TO ABC NEWS LIVE. FIRST, THANKS FOR STREAMING WITH US. YOU'RE LOOKING AT PHILADELPHIA ON THIS MONDAY AND WE HAVE A LOT OF NEWS TO GET TO. HERE'S A RUNDOWN RIGHT NOW? THE ISRAELI DEFENSE FORCES ARE REPORTING AN AERIAL INFILTRATION ATTACK IN NORTHERN ISRAEL. THE IDF SAYS TWO SUSPICIOUS AERIAL DEVICES INTO ISRAELI TERRITORY FROM LEBANON, BUT THAT NO ONE WAS INJURED. ISRAELI MEDIA REPORTS A DRONE DETONATED AFTER CRASHING INTO AN APARTMENT BLOCK. MEANWHILE, SYRIAN STATE MEDIA REPORTS, AT LEAST FOUR PEOPLE ARE DEAD AFTER ISRAEL LAUNCHED STRIKES ON CENTRAL SYRIA. THOSE STRIKES REPORTEDLY WOUNDED 13 OTHERS, SPARKED FIRES AND DAMAGED A HIGHWAY. ISRAEL HAS NOT COMMENTED ON THE STRIKES AND IT COMES AS ISRAELI AUTHORITIES CONFIRM BORDER CROSSINGS BETWEEN ISRAEL AND JORDAN HAVE PARTIALLY REOPENED AFTER CLOSING DUE TO AN ATTACK THAT KILLED THREE POLICE OFFICERS. JURY SELECTION BEGINS TODAY IN THE TRIAL OF THREE FORMER MEMPHIS POLICE OFFICERS CHARGED IN THE DEATH OF NICHOLS. NICHOLS DIED LAST YEAR AFTER BEING PULLED OVER AND FROM POLICE WHO CAUGHT AND BEAT HIM. POLICE VIDEO SHOWED HIM FOR HIS MOTHER. HE DIED THREE DAYS LATER IN THE HOSPITAL. OFFICERS TO DARIUS BEING DEMETRIUS, HALEY AND JUSTIN SMITH, CHARGED WITH DEPRIVING NICHOLS OF HIS CIVIL RIGHTS. THEY HAVE PLEADED GUILTY. EGGS ARE BEING RECALLED AMID A SALMONELLA OUTBREAK IN NINE STATES THAT HAS LEFT AT LEAST 65 PEOPLE INFECTED. MOST VICTIMS ARE IN WISCONSIN, AND OFFICIALS SAY THE TAINTED EGGS WERE SOLD UNDER THE BRANDS MILO'S POULTRY FARMS AND TONY'S FRESH MARKET. CDC IS ADVISING ANYONE WHO ATE THOSE EGGS AND IS EXPERIENCING SYMPTOMS TO CONTACT A HEALTH CARE PROVIDER. U.S. SOCCER STAR ALEX MORGAN IS LEAVING IT ALL ON FIELD AFTER ANNOUNCING HER RETIREMENT IN THE 13TH MINUTE OF THE GAME IN HONOR OF HER JERSEY NUMBER 13. MORGAN TOOK OFF HER CLEATS AND MADE HER FINAL WALK TO THE SIDELINE. MORGAN'S NEARLY 14 YEAR CAREER INCLUDE A 224 APPEARANCES FOR THE NATIONAL TEAM, 123 INTERNATIONAL GOALS, TWO WORLD CUP TITLES AND AN OLYMPIC GOLD MEDAL. ALEX MORGAN, HER HUSBAND, ARE EXPECTING THEIR SECOND CHILD. AND VICE PRESIDENT HARRIS AND FORMER PRESIDENT TRUMP ARE SET TO FACE OFF ON THE DEBATE STAGE FOR THE FIRST TIME TOMORROW NIGHT. HARRIS SAYS SHE'S READY AFTER HUNKERING DOWN FOR INTENSE DEBATE PREP. MEANWHILE, TRUMP HAS BEEN HOLDING INFORMAL POLICY SESSIONS WITH A SMALL TEAM OF ADVISERS FIRING OFF VARIOUS QUESTIONS AT HIM FOR HIS STANCES AND TROUBLES. ABC'S JAY O'BRIEN JOINS ME NOW FROM PHILADELPHIA FOR ON THAT. JAY THE STAGE IS SET NOW. SO WHAT'S AT STAKE HERE FOR BOTH CANDIDATES. I MEAN THE STAKES COULD BE HIGHER. DIANE, IF YOU THINK ABOUT THE LAST TIME THERE WAS A DEBATE IN PRESIDENTIAL CYCLE, THERE WERE TWO DIFFERENT CANDIDATES ON THAT STAGE. IN THAT DEBATE. AND PRESIDENT BIDEN'S PERFORMANCE IN IT LITERALLY REWROTE THE ENTIRE STORY OF THIS RACE SO THE STAKES COULD NOT BE HIGHER. THIS GOING TO BE A TEST REALLY FOR BOTH CANDIDATES OF THEIR KIND OF PUNCHING AND COUNTERPUNCHING STYLE. THESE ARE BOTH DEBATERS THAT LIKE TO COME ON TO THE STAGE WITH GUNS BLAZING. WE'VE SEEN THAT IN FORMER PRESIDENT TRUMP'S POLITICAL HISTORY. THINKING BACK TO HIS DEBATES WITH SECRETARY CLINTON. THE 2016 ELECTION. WITH KAMALA HARRIS. WE'VE SEEN THAT OVER THE COURSE OF HER ENTIRE POLITICAL CAREER AS WELL. THINK BACK TO THOSE DEBATES IN THE 2020 CYCLE, THE DEMOCRATIC PRIMARY DEBATES IN WHICH SHE WAS RESPONSIBLE FOR REALLY A NUMBER OF ATTACK LINES AGAINST THEN CANDIDATE JOE BIDEN. NOW PRESIDENT BIDEN, FOR WHOM SHE SERVED AS PRESIDENT. SO THESE ARE BOTH CANDIDATES WHO LIKE TO PUNCH, WHO LIKE TO. THOSE STYLES WILL BE TESTED WHEN THEY MEET HEAD ON HEAD. THEY NEVER EVEN BEEN IN THE SAME ROOM TOGETHER. THEY'VE NEVER MET IN. AND ALSO, THE RULES ARE GOING TO PLAY A FACTOR IN ALL OF THIS, PARTICULARLY THE MICROPHONES. WE TALK ABOUT THAT PUNCHING AND COUNTERPUNCHING STYLE. ONE OF THE RULES THAT BOTH CAMPAIGNS HAVE AGREED TO IS THAT THE MICROPHONES WILL BE MUTED WHEN IT IS NOT THAT CANDIDATE'S TURN TO SPEAK, SO THAT SOMETIMES HAMPERS THE ABILITY TO COUNTERPUNCH IT IN THE EYES OF THE HARRIS CAMPAIGN. IT ALSO HAMPERS THE ABILITY FOR AMERICANS TO HEAR SOME OF THE FREE WHEELING OFF THE CUFF THINGS THAT DONALD TRUMP SAYS. BUT NO DOUBT, VICE PRESIDENT IS STILL GOING TO TRY TO MAKE NOTE OF THAT. >> AND FORMER DEMOCRATIC AND TRUMP ADVISER TULSI GABBARD SAID ON FOX NEWS TODAY, KAMALA HARRIS SHOULD NOT BE UNDERESTIMATED. SHE STRESSED THE SOLID DEBATE PREP THAT HARRIS HAS BEEN DOING AND HOW SERIOUSLY SHE'S TAKING THE DEBATE. IS THE TRUMP CAMPAIGN TRYING TO TEMPER EXPECTATIONS? THE EXPECTATIONS GAME IS INTERESTING BECAUSE WITH THE EXPECTATIONS GAME AS IT RELATES TO PRESIDENT BIDEN, FOR INSTANCE, THEY LOWERED EXPECTATIONS SO LOW THAT PRESIDENT BIDEN COULD HAVE REALLY DONE A LOT TO CLEAR THOSE EXPECTATIONS. AND EVEN THEN, HE DIDN'T. HERE WHAT THEY'RE DOING IS RAISING, IN A WAY, EXPECTATIONS ABOUT KAMALA, TALKING ABOUT HER STYLE IN THE COURTROOM. AT LEAST TRUMP'S ORBIT IS DOING THAT WHEN IT COMES TO FORMER PRESIDENT TRUMP. HE DOESN'T NECESSARILY GO THAT FAR AS TO PRAISE HIS RIVAL THE WAY HE SOMETIMES TRIED TO DO WITH JOE BIDEN. TRY TO RAISE THAT EXPECTATIONS BAR. BUT WHEN IT COMES TO TULSI GABBARD, THERE'S ONE MORE THING TO KEEP IN MIND HERE, WHICH IS SHE IS A WINDOW INTO HOW THE TRUMP CAMPAIGN AND FORMER PRESIDENT TRUMP SPECIFICALLY ARE GOING TO TREAT THIS DEBATE. THINK BACK TO 2019. IT WAS TULSI WHO HAD THE STRONGEST ATTACK LINES AGAINST KAMALA HARRIS WHEN THEY WERE ON THAT PRIMARY STAGE TOGETHER, TALKING ABOUT HARRIS' CAREER AS A PROSECUTOR. SO WITH TULSI GABBARD IN THE ROOM ADVISING TRUMP, IT GIVES, YOU PERHAPS A WINDOW INTO HIS THINKING GOING INTO TOMORROW NIGHT. ALL JAY O'BRIEN THANK YOU. >> AND THE FIRST PRESIDENTIAL DEBATE BETWEEN FORMER PRESIDENT TRUMP AND VICE PRESIDENT HARRIS IS TOMORROW NIGHT. YOU CAN WATCH IT RIGHT HERE ON ABC NEWS LIVE WITH COVERAGE STARTING AT 9 P.M. EASTERN. >> AND AN INVESTIGATION IS UNDERWAY AFTER A CHAOTIC START TO THE SEASON FOR MIAMI DOLPHINS. TYREEK BEFORE HE EVEN SET FOOT ON THE FIELD. >> THE WIDE RECEIVER WAS HANDCUFFED BY POLICE JUST HOURS BEFORE THE FIRST GAME OF THE SEASON YESTERDAY. SOURCES TELL ESPN HILL WAS STOPPED FOR SPEEDING AND THEN GOT INTO A VERBAL ALTERCATION WITH POLICE. MIAMI-DADE PD SAYS ONE OFFICER INVOLVED HAS BEEN PLACED ON ADMINISTRATIVE DUTIES WHILE THE DEPARTMENT REVIEWS THE INCIDENT. ABC'S VICTOR OQUENDO HAS MORE. THE SHOCKING SCENE CAUGHT ON CAMERA OUTSIDE. MIAMI DOLPHINS HARD ROCK STADIUM. THAT'S NFL SUPERSTAR TYREEK HILL, SURROUNDED BY POLICE HOURS BEFORE SUNDAY'S GAME. THAT OFFICER ORDERING, THE WIDE RECEIVER OUT OF HIS BLACK SPORTS CAR. THIS VIDEO SHOWING LYING FACE DOWN ON THE GROUND AS POLICE HANDCUFFED THE 30 YEAR OLD PRO BOWLER BEFORE SETTING HIM UP. AT ONE POINT, AN OFFICER SUDDENLY TAKING HILL TO THE GROUND. MIAMI-DADE PD PLACING ONE OF THE OFFICERS INVOLVED ON ADMINISTRATIVE, SAYING THEY'LL CONDUCT AN INTERNAL INVESTIGATION. >> I'M STILL TRYING TO PUT IT ALL TOGETHER SO I'M NOT TO GIVE YOU A VERSION THAT I STILL DON'T KNOW WHAT HAPPENED. >> THE MIAMI DOLPHINS SAYING HILL WAS PULLED OVER FOR A TRAFFIC INCIDENT AND BRIEFLY DETAINED BY POLICE BEFORE BEING RELEASED. THEY SAID I WAS SPEEDING, BUT I DON'T KNOW. >> THEY SAID WAS SPEEDING, RECKLESS DRIVING, WHATEVER. >> JULIO JONES, HE LOVED TO DO IT ALL. HILL PUT ON A SHOW ON THE FIELD CATCHING SEVEN PASSES, INCLUDING THIS 80 YARD TOUCHDOWN, THEN APPEARING TO CELEBRATE BY MIMICKING BEING HANDCUFFED. SOME OF HILL'S TEAMMATES ACTUALLY SAW WHAT WAS HAPPENING. THEY PULLED OVER AND TRIED TO HELP. OVERNIGHT, HILL'S AGENT RELEASING A STATEMENT SAYING IN PART THAT WHAT HAPPENED IS COMPLETELY UNACCEPTABLE. HE DID NOT DESERVE TO BE TREATED THIS WAY AND THAT HILL'S LEGAL TEAM WILL BE PURSUING MATTER. >> DIANE. ABC'S VICTOR OQUENDO. THANK YOU. AND NEW DETAILS ARE EMERGING ABOUT A POSSIBLE OVERLOOKED WARNING BEFORE LAST WEEK'S DEADLY SHOOTING AT APALACHEE HIGH SCHOOL IN GEORGIA. THE SUSPECTS AND ABC NEWS. HIS MOTHER CALLED THE HIGH SCHOOL ON THE MORNING OF THE SHOOTING TO WARN A COUNSELOR OF A, QUOTE, EXTREME EMERGENCY, HER SON. NOW SHE'S EXPRESSING FRUSTRATION THAT THE SCHOOL FAILED TO PREVENT THE TRAGEDY. ABC'S FAITH ABUBEY HAS MORE NEW QUESTIONS ABOUT WHETHER THERE WERE MISSED SIGNS AHEAD OF A GEORGIA SCHOOL SHOOTING THAT KILLED FOUR PEOPLE AND INJURED NINE OTHERS. >> THE SCHOOL IS SUPPOSED TO BE A SAFE PLACE FOR KIDS. >> THE MOVE WAS PART OF THE ACCUSED GUNMAN'S AUNT TELLING ABC NEWS ROUGHLY 30 MINUTES BEFORE THE SHOOTING AT APALACHEE HIGH SCHOOL IN WINDER QUOTE, GRAY'S MOTHER CALLED A SCHOOL COUNSELOR TO WARN AN EXTREME EMERGENCY. HIS MOTHER, MARCEE GRAY, SPEAKING TO NEWS OVERNIGHT, SAYING SHE TRIED TO GET HIM THE HELP NEEDED. >> I JUST WENT, OH, OH, OH. >> THE TELLING "THE WASHINGTON POST" THAT DURING THE TEN MINUTE CONVERSATION, A SCHOOL COUNSELOR TOLD MARCI GRAY THAT HER SON HAD SPOKEN ABOUT A SCHOOL SHOOTING THE SAME MORNING. CLASSMATE LELA SCIARRA TELLING ABC NEWS THAT A SCHOOL ADMINISTRATOR CONFISCATED A BACKPACK OF A STUDENT WITH A SIMILAR NAME. >> A LITTLE BIT LATER, HE CAME BACK IN WITH HIS BAG AND HE SAID THAT THEY WEREN'T LOOKING FOR HIM. >> THEY WERE LOOKING FOR COAT. MOMENTS LATER, THE ACCUSED TEENAGER ALLEGEDLY OPENED FIRE OUTSIDE THE CLASSROOM DOOR. >> DIANE, THE ALLEGED SHOOTER AND HIS FATHER ARE FACING MULTIPLE FELONY CHARGES RELATED TO THIS MASS SHOOTING. THEY HAVE NOT ENTERED A PLEA IN COURT. IN THE MEANTIME, SCHOOL DISTRICT ARE NOT COMMENTING ON THE FAMILY'S CLAIMS THAT THEY WERE WARNED, BUT THE COUNTY SHERIFF TELLS ME IT'S MISINFORMATION. DIANE. ABC'S FAITH ABUBEY. THANK YOU. AND A TRIAL TODAY IN A NEW ANTITRUST LAWSUIT THAT COULD BREAKUP GOOGLE. THE JUSTICE DEPARTMENT IS ACCUSING THE COMPANY OF A MONOPOLY OVER ITS ADVERTISING TECHNOLOGY. THE TRIAL COMES A MONTH AFTER A JUDGE RULED GOOGLE'S SEARCH ENGINE IS AN ILLEGAL MONOPOLY. >> ABC NEWS LEGAL CONTRIBUTOR BRIAN BUCKMIRE JOINS ME NOW FOR MORE ON THAT. BRIAN, GOOD MORNING. YOU KNOW, THE JUSTICE DEPARTMENT ARGUES THAT GOOGLE'S DOMINANCE ALLOWS IT TO CHARGE EXCESSIVE FEES FOR ADS ON ITS PLATFORM. BUT GOOGLE SAYS THE GOVERNMENT'S CASE IS TOO FOCUSED DESKTOP ADS AND DOESN'T TAKE INTO ACCOUNT MOBILE APPS. SOCIAL MEDIA. >> WHAT DO YOU MAKE OF BOTH OF THOSE ARGUMENTS? GOOD MORNING, DAVID. I THINK IT'S A GOOD ARGUMENT AND COULD BE ONE THAT IF GOOGLE LOSES, COULD IMPACT THE OVERALL DAMAGES OF THE CASE, SAYING THAT WE ONLY FOCUS ON THIS SMALL SECTION AND NOT THE LARGER IMPACT OF IT. BUT I THINK GOOGLE HAS TO STEP UP THEIR ARGUMENT A LITTLE BIT MORE, ADDRESS SOME OF THE ISSUES THAT THE DOJ IS ARGUING PRIMARILY THAT THEY'RE ACQUIRING COMPETITION. THEY ARE FORCING ADOPTION OF THEIR GOOGLE TOOLS, KIND OF AN ALL OR NOTHING TYPE OF METHOD THAT THEY'RE DISRUPTING THE AUCTION COMPETITION AND MANIPULATING THAT OPTION. IN THE DOJ IS FILING, THEY ACTUALLY QUOTE AN AD EXACT THAT WHAT GOOGLE'S DOING IN CONTROLLING THE BUYING AND SELLING AND USE OF THIS AD TECHNOLOGY WOULD BE LIKE IF GOLDMAN CITIBANK OWNED THE NEW YORK STOCK EXCHANGE. SO THEY HAVE TO DO A LITTLE BIT MORE THAN JUST A SMALL ARGUMENT. >> SO HOW SIGNIFICANT IS IT THAT? A JUDGE HAS ALREADY DECLARED GOOGLE SEARCH ENGINE AN ILLEGAL MONOPOLY. COULD THAT AFFECT THIS CASE. >> IT SHOULDN'T AFFECT. THIS CASE. THERE ARE TWO DIFFERENT CASES ALTOGETHER, ONE ABOUT A SEARCH ENGINE AND ONE ABOUT ADS. HOWEVER, THEY ARE BOTH ANTITRUST CASES IN THE SECTION OF THE SHERMAN ACT. AND SO SOME OF THE ARGUMENTS THAT WE GOOGLE PROBABLY MAKING IN THIS CASE SEEM TO HAVE ALREADY FAILED IN THE FIRST ONE. SO I THINK IN TERMS OF, IN FACT, THEY SHOULD LEARN FROM PAST MISTAKES AND LOOK TO VENTURE INTO OTHER AREAS THAT THEY CAN ARGUE. SO WHAT'S AT STAKE FOR GOOGLE HERE? >> A LOT, BOTH IN TERMS OF DOLLAR AMOUNTS AND LITIGATION THERE. THE DOJ IS FOCUSING ON TRYING TO DIVEST GOOGLE'S AD MANAGER SUITE. THAT'S WHAT ALLOWS TO BE ABLE TO BUY AND SELL AD SPACE. AND JUST IN THE SECOND QUARTER ALONE, THE DOJ SAYS THAT GOOGLE MADE $7.4 BILLION. SO A VERY LARGE PRICE TAG THERE. BUT ALSO, IF THE DOJ WINS, WOULD EXPECT ADVERTISERS WHO ARE AFFECTED BY THIS TO ALSO START THEIR OWN CASE AGAINST GOOGLE. AND YOU MIGHT SEE THE FLOODGATES, SO TO SPEAK, OPEN UP THERE. AND AS AN ANTITRUST CASE, IT'S ALWAYS SMART TO REMEMBER THAT WHEN PEOPLE SUE THEY LOOK FOR TREBLE DAMAGES. >> SO TRIPLE THE AMOUNT THAT THEY LOST. ALL RIGHT. ABC NEWS LEGAL CONTRIBUTOR BRIAN BUCKMIRE. THANK YOU. >> COMING UP, KENDRICK LAMAR IS SET TO HEADLINE THE BIGGEST SHOW OF THE YEAR. WHAT WE CAN EXPECT FROM THE 17 TIME GRAMMY WINNER AT THE SUPER BOWL. >> WHAT DOES IT TAKE TO BE THE MOST WATCHED NEWSCAST IN AMERICA? AN OPERATION AFTER ISIS PLUNDERED COMBAT OPERATIONS. WE'RE APPROACHING THE GATE NOW. MILITANTS CAME IN FROM FOUR OR FIVE DIFFERENT DIRECTIONS. OPERATION NUCLEAR REACTOR CITY ,THE COUPLE LOADED AND READY TO GO. THE HOUSE IS DESTROYED, BUT THE FLAG, THERE'S NOT A TEAR IN AND OUT OF HOW FAR YOU CAN JUST LABEL RIGHT HERE. MAKE THE U.S.A.. >> LOOK AT YOUR SMILE. YOU'RE PROUD OF IT? I LOVE IT. GREAT. ONE. HI. WHERE ARE YOU. ARE YOU? APPRECIATE IT. THANK YOU. IT'S AN INTERESTING SMILE DAVID GAVE. >> YES. YES. I'M DAVID MUIR. >> I KNOW YOU DO. EVERY NIGHT. ABC'S WORLD NEWS TONIGHT WITH DAVID MUIR. IS MOST WATCHED NEWSCAST. >> IF YOU WERE COMING OF AGE IN THE 1980S, THE BRAT PACK WAS NEAR THE CENTER OF YOUR CULTURAL AWARENESS. BUT FOR THOSE OF US EXPERIENCING IT FROM INSIDE, THE BRAT PACK WAS SOMETHING VERY DIFFERENT. IF YOU HAVE A BRAT PACK NAME NOT EXIST, WOULD YOU? >> HMM. I HATED THE PART. WHAT A DISASTER. DID WE TAKE IT AS AN OFFENSE AND THEN LIKE, SAY WE'RE THE BEATLES, RIGHT? >> WELL, WE DIDN'T SELL SHEA STADIUM 1980 FIVE. >> I THINK WE COULD HAVE. WHY DO SO MANY PEOPLE START THEIR DAY HERE FROM NEWS? >> THIS IS START HERE. TO BE IN THE KNOW AND GET A DIFFERENT TAKE ON THE DAY'S TOP STORIES. A LOT OF NEWS TODAY. SO LET'S INTO IT. LISTEN NOW TO THE DAILY NEWS PODCAST HONORED WITH FOUR EDWARD R. MURROW AWARDS AND SEE WHY THE NEW YORK TIMES CALLS IT A NEWS PODCAST WORTH LISTENING TO YOU STAR 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, WELCOME BACK TO ABC NEWS LIVE. FIRST, FOOTBALL IS BACK AND THE FIRST NFL SUNDAY OF THE YEAR IS OFFICIALLY IN THE BOOKS. WE SAW UPSETS WITH THE DOUBLE DIGIT UNDERDOG NEW ENGLAND PATRIOTS TAMING THE CINCINNATI BENGALS. AND WE SAW SOME ROOKIES STUMBLE WITH THE NUMBER ONE OVERALL PICK IN THE DRAFT STRUGGLING TO ADJUST TO THE PRO GAME. FOR ALL THAT AND MORE, LET'S BRING IN ESPN'S SENIOR NFL WRITER JEREMY FOWLER. JEREMY, THANKS SO MUCH FOR COMING ON. WHAT A WEEK. ONE. I'M CURIOUS TO KNOW, WHAT ARE YOUR BIGGEST TAKEAWAYS AFTER FIRST NFL SUNDAY OF THE YEAR? >> YEAH, THANK YOU FOR HAVING ME. YOU KNOW, AMERICA'S TEAM, THE DALLAS COWBOYS, LOOKS PRETTY DARN GOOD AFTER A OFFSEASON OF TURMOIL AND SOME OF STAR PLAYERS NOT BEING SIGNED TO THE BIG CONTRACTS UNTIL VERY LATE IN THE PROCESS, DAK PRESCOTT, THE QUARTERBACK, SIGNING A $240 MILLION DEAL JUST HOURS BEFORE KICKOFF ,THERE WERE QUESTIONS ABOUT WHETHER THE COWBOYS, WHO TRADITIONALLY STRUGGLED IN THE PLAYOFFS, ARE GOING TO BE ABLE TO PUT ALL TOGETHER THIS YEAR. WELL, THEY HAD A VERY CONVINCING WIN OVER THE BROWNS, PUTTING UP 33 POINTS. THEY LOOK LIKE THEY'RE GOING TO BE RIGHT IN THE PLAYOFF MIX . SO THAT STOOD OUT TO ME PLAYING A BROWNS TEAM THAT IS SORT OF THE OPPOSITE RIGHT NOW A LITTLE BIT WITH DESHAUN WATSON, A QUARTERBACK. THEY GAVE A LOT OF MONEY TO, HAS STRUGGLED IN THE LAST FEW YEARS, STRUGGLED AGAIN YESTERDAY. THE BROWNS NEED HIM TO REALLY PICK UP THE PACE A LITTLE BIT. >> JEREMY ROOKIE STRUGGLED A BIT YESTERDAY PARTICULARLY ROOKIE QUARTERBACK. SHOULD THESE TEAMS BE WORRIED? >> I WOULDN'T SAY WORRIED YET. MAYBE A MILD CONCERN BECAUSE YOU WANT TO SEE A LITTLE MORE OUTPUT. YOU KNOW BO NIX THE ROOKIE STARTER DENVER AVERAGED JUST OVER THREE YARDS PER PASSING ATTEMPT THAT'S JUST NOT TO GET IT DONE AT THE NFL LEVEL. >> BUT A LOT OF TIMES, YOU KNOW, COACHES WILL ALWAYS ME WEEK ONE, WEEK TWO, THE DEFENSES ARE USUALLY A LITTLE BIT AHEAD. YOU KNOW, THEY'VE GOT AN ADVANTAGE. THEY'VE GOT MORE EXPERIENCE. AND SO THEY CAN CONFUSE THESE YOUNG QUARTERBACKS. BUT, YOU KNOW, YOU GOT CALEB WILLIAMS, THE NUMBER ONE OVERALL PICK THROWING FOR LESS THAN 90 YARDS IN A GAME WHEN YOU TYPICALLY NEED 200 TO 250 YARDS TO WIN AN NFL CONTEST MOST WEEKS. SO IT'S A BIT OF AN ISSUE. AND THEY ALL STRUGGLED A LITTLE BIT. BUT THERE'S A LOT OF TALENT. THIS IS CONSIDERED ONE OF THE BETTER CLASSES IN RECENT YEARS WITH SIX OF THE QUARTERBACKS GOING IN THE TOP 12 PICKS BACK IN APRIL'S NFL DRAFT. SO THEY SHOULD GET IT TOGETHER . >> ENOUGH TALENT. WELL, THAT WILL SHINE OVER 17 GAMES. >> AND JEREMY, TONIGHT MIGHT BE THE MOST ANTICIPATED IN FOOTBALL SINCE THE SUPER BOWL, RIGHT? THE RETURN OF AARON RODGERS THE JETS TAKE ON THE 40 NINERS AND RODGERS OF COURSE UP FOR THIS SEASON ENDING INJURY JUST THREE PLAYS INTO LAST SEASON. SO WHAT ARE YOU EXPECTING TO SEE TONIGHT. YEAH AARON RODGERS RETURN IS PROBABLY THE BEST STORYLINE IN THE NFL RIGHT NOW. THIS IS A QUARTERBACK IS NOW 40 YEARS OLD HAD SOME QUESTIONS ABOUT WHETHER HIS BODY AT THAT AGE COULD RESPOND TO AN ACHILLES TEAR THAT HE HAD TO REHAB FOR MONTHS. AND NOT ONLY HAS HE REHAB SUCCESSFULLY, BUT HE'S LOOKED REALLY GOOD IN THE PRESEASON AND TRAINING CAMP WITH THE JETS. THIS A TEAM THAT TRADITIONALLY HAS STRUGGLED, BUT THEY HAVE A LOT OF TALENT RIGHT NOW AROUND RODGERS. THE QUESTION IS, CAN HE GET AROUND THE POCKET AND AROUND, SHOW HIS MOBILITY AND STILL THROW ON THE RUN LIKE HE'S DONE SO SUCCESSFULLY ALL THESE YEARS? WE'LL FIND OUT AGAINST ONE OF THE VERY BEST DEFENSES IN THE NFL, THE 49 OR SO. YOU KNOW, THE JETS ARE GOING TO BE OFF SEASON COMPELLING STORYLINE REALLY EVERY WEEK OF THE YEAR STARTING TONIGHT. AND AARON RODGERS HAS ALWAYS BEEN PRODUCTIVE. SO I'M ASSUMING HE WILL BE TONIGHT. >> ALL RIGHT. WE'LL SEE HOW HE DOES. ESPN SENIOR NFL WRITER JEREMY FOWLER. THANKS, JEREMY AND AGAIN, AARON RODGERS RETURNS TONIGHT AGAINST. THE DEFENDING NFC CHAMPIONS, SAN FRANCISCO, 49 ERS MONDAY NIGHT FOOTBALL, EIGHT EASTERN HERE ON ABC. ANDY ESPNW AND ANOTHER FOOTBALL NEWS GRAMMY AWARD WINNER KENDRICK IS SET TO POP OUT ON NFL'S BIGGEST STAGE NEXT FEBRUARY AT THE SUPER IN NEW ORLEANS. >> THE NOT LIKE US RAPPER TOOK TO SOCIAL MEDIA MAKING ANNOUNCEMENT ALONGSIDE THE NFL ROCK NATION AND APPLE MUSIC. LAMAR'S NOW THE ONLY RAPPER TO EVER SOLO HEADLINE THE BOWL. >> ABC'S CONTRIBUTOR, SIRIUS XM RADIO HOST MIKE MUSE JOINING ME NOW FOR MORE ON THIS. MIKE, THANKS FOR COMING ON. KENDRICK DOMINATED THIS SUMMER IN PART DUE TO HIS ONGOING BEEF WITH DRAKE. SO IS IT A RISKY MOVE FOR THE HALFTIME SHOW TO SEEMINGLY LEAN INTO THAT AND APPARENTLY TAKE A SIDE HERE? >> IT'S RISKY IN THE SENSE OF INDIRECTLY LOOKING AT TAKING HIS SIDE, BUT IT IS IMPORTANT IN OUR CULTURE AND IF YOU LOOK AT THE DATA, HIP-HOP IS ONE OF THE MOST CONSUMED GENRES CURRENTLY RIGHT NOW. AND IF YOU LOOK AT WHAT HAPPENED BETWEEN THE BEEF, KENDRICK AND DRAKE, IT REALLY ELEVATED HIP-HOP TO NEW AUDIENCES AND IT REALLY INFUSED NEW ENERGY INTO, HIP-HOP IN PARTICULAR, COMING OFF OF THE 50TH ANNIVERSARY OF THAT. SO IDEA THAT YOU WOULD HAVE PRESUMABLY WHAT EVERYONE IS THE WINNER OF THAT THAT RAP BATTLE WILL BE ON LARGEST STAGE, WHICH IS THE SUPER BOWL AVERAGING 140 MILLION VIEWS. TO HAVE KENDRICK THAT STAGE PERFORMING, IT'S HUGE FOR HIP-HOP IS HUGE FOR THE CULTURE . >> AND IT IS REFLECTIVE OF JUST HOW BIG THAT MOMENT IS. >> THEY'RE UPSET THAT A NEW ORLEANS NATIVE ISN'T HEADLINING SINCE THAT'S WHERE THE GAME IS TAKING PLACE. LIL WAYNE'S ENGINEER POSTED THAT HE WAS CONFUSED AND ANGRY THAT LIL WAYNE WASN'T CHOSEN. WHAT DO YOU MAKE OF THAT? AND SOME OF THE NEGATIVE REACTIONS? >> GANO ABSOLUTELY. I UNDERSTAND EXACTLY HOW LITTLE WAYNE IS DEALING. BOTH CAN BE TRUE. YOU CAN UPSET ABOUT LIL WAYNE THAT BEFORE. I FEEL LIKE LIL WAYNE SHOULD BE THERE BECAUSE IS HIS HOME. BUT SUPER BOWL IS ALL ABOUT THE TEAMS, THE TWO BEST TEAMS IN THE NFL GOING HEAD TO HEAD THIS BIG CULTURAL MOMENT. AND SO YOU WANT TO MAKE SURE THAT THE ARTIST THAT IS PERFORMING IS MEET THE MEET THE MOMENT THE PLAY ON THE FIELD. >> AND AT THIS MOMENT CURRENTLY RIGHT NOW, KENDRICK LAMAR IS THE BIGGEST MOMENT THAT WE HAVE RIGHT IN CULTURE AND IN MUSIC FOR WHAT THAT REPRESENTED. SO THAT MADE SENSE FOR THAT SELECTION. SO BOTH CAN BE TRUE AT THE SAME. I DO HOPE THE PRODUCER OF THE HALFTIME SHOW, JESSE COLLINS, FINDS A WAY TO INCLUDE LIL WAYNE IN SOME CAPACITY. DON'T KNOW HOW THAT BE DONE, BUT IT WILL BE NICE TO SEE. >> ALL RIGHT. YOU'RE KIND OF LEADING ME TO MY NEXT QUESTION, WHICH IS KENDRICK HAS PERFORMED THE SUPER BOWL BEFORE. HE WAS THERE IN 2022 WITH A HOST OF OTHER HIP-HOP LEGENDS. SO LET'S TALK SPECIAL GUEST. WHO DO YOU THINK WE MIGHT SEE BESIDE KENDRICK THIS TIME AROUND? >> I MEAN, POSITIVELY LITTLE WAYNE, BUT ALSO TRUE KENDRICK IS AN ART AS HE IS VERY THEATRICAL. IF YOU LOOK WHAT HE DID WHEN HE DID HIS LIFE IN PAIRS CONCERT ON AMAZON MUSIC, THEATRICAL PERFORMANCE IS AMAZING. >> THE WAY HE DOES THIS STAGING IS INCREDIBLE. AND IF YOU LOOK AT SOME OF THE FEATURES THAT HE'S ADDED IN SOME OF HIS VIDEOS, IN PARTICULAR, THEY'RE NOT LIKE US. YOU JUST NEVER KNOW WHAT IT IS. BUT I THINK IF IT'S GOING TO BE ANYBODY GOING TO BE ARTISTS AND CULTURAL REPRESENTATIVES FROM LOS ANGELES, SOUTH CENTRAL LOS ANGELES AND COMPTON IN PARTICULAR, THAT THEY REALLY SEE A LOT OF WEST COAST REFERENCES AND POSSIBLY LIL WAYNE. >> IF WE SEE ANY FEATURES AT ALL. ALL RIGHT. WE'LL SEE MIKE. >> MOVE. THANKS, FRIEND. THANK YOU. COMING UP, THE NEW SCHOOL YEAR AND THE RETURN TO A RIGOROUS ROUTINE AND TODAY'S MOTIVATION. MONDAY PELOTON'S, ALEX, U.S. TELLS US HOW TEACHERS AND PARENTS CAN MAKE SURE THEIR CARE DOESN'T TAKE A BACKSEAT. >> WHY DO SO MANY PEOPLE START THEIR DAY HERE? FROM ABC, THIS IS START HERE.

TIME FOR MY MIND RIGHT NOW ON ABC NEWS LIVE, THE PHILLY FACE OFF. AND IT'S HAPPENING HERE ON ABC NEWS LIVE. THE FIRST DEBATE BETWEEN VICE PRESIDENT HARRIS AND FORMER PRESIDENT DONALD TRUMP. AND IT'S ONLY ONE DAY AWAY. FULL COVERAGE FROM THE CITY OF BROTHERLY LOVE ALL DAY LONG. PLUS, TROPICAL STORM FRANCINE TAKING AIM AT THE GULF COAST. THE LATEST ON THE SOON TO BE HURRICANE'S TRACK AND TIMING THIS HOUR. AND AN URGENT MANHUNT UNDERWAY RIGHT NOW. A SHOOTING AT A KENTUCKY HIGHWAY. WHERE THE INVESTIGATION STANDS THIS HOUR. AND GOOD AFTERNOON, EVERYONE. I'M PHILLIPS. OUR TOP STORY, COUNTING DOWN THE HOURS. VICE PRESIDENT KAMALA HARRIS AND FORMER PRESIDENT DONALD TRUMP SET TO FACE OFF FOR THE VERY FIRST TIME IN TOMORROW'S PRESIDENTIAL DEBATE RIGHT ON ABC NEWS LIVE. WE ARE TOLD THAT TRUMP IS HOLDING INFORMAL POLICY SESSIONS WITH A SMALL TEAM OF HIS ADVISERS, WHILE HARRIS SAYS SHE'S READY TO GO AFTER A WEEKEND OF INTENSE DEBATE PRACTICE WITH HER TEAM SAYING IN A RADIO INTERVIEW SHE'S EVEN FOR TRUMP'S LIES. >> TAKE A LISTEN. >> IT IS A CHANCE FOR HIM IN TERMS OF HOW LONG HE WILL GO AND AND WE SHOULD BE PREPARED FOR THAT. AND WE SHOULD BE PREPARED FOR THE FACT THAT HE IS NOT BURDENED BY TELLING TRUTH. AND WE SHOULD BE PREPARED FOR THE FACT THAT HE IS PROBABLY GOING TO SPEAK A LOT OF UNTRUTHS. >> WELL, WITH ONLY 56 DAYS UNTIL ELECTION DAY, WE DO HAVE TEAM COVERAGE STARTING OFF WITH SENIOR WHITE HOUSE CORRESPONDENT SELINA WANG, ALONG WITH OUR JAY O'BRIEN, WHO'S NOW AT THE DEBATE SITE RIGHT THERE IN PHILLY. SELINA HARRIS ALREADY LAYING THE GROUNDWORK THAT TRUMP IS GOING TO LIE DURING THIS DEBATE. SO GIVE US THE DETAILS. WHAT ARE YOU LEARNING AND WHAT ARE YOUR SOURCES TELLING YOU ABOUT HOW SHE'S PREPARING NOW? >> WELL, KYRA, SOURCES TELL ME THAT VICE PRESIDENT HARRIS IS PREPARED FOR WHATEVER VERSION OF DONALD TRUMP UP ON THAT DEBATE STAGE. >> AND YOU HEARD HER IN THAT RADIO INTERVIEW, CLEARLY SETTING EXPECTATIONS THAT REGARDLESS SHE IS PREPARED FOR DONALD TRUMP TO REPEATEDLY LIE. >> NOW, THERE IS A LOT ON THE LINE IN THIS DEBATE FOR VICE PRESIDENT HARRIS. THIS WOULD BE DONALD TRUMP'S SEVENTH GENERAL ELECTION PRESIDENTIAL DEBATE. IT WILL ONLY BE HER FIRST. SO THAT'S PART OF THE REASON WHY SHE'S SO INTENSELY PREPARING. SHE'S TRYING TO DO HER BEST TO RECREATE THE ENVIRONMENT THAT SHE'S GOING TO CONFRONT ON THAT DEBATE STAGE. SHE'S BEEN DOING THESE FULL MOCK DEBATE SESSIONS WITH, THE FULL LIGHTING WITH THE TRUMP STANDARD, WHO I'M TOLD IS REALLY APPROACHING HIS ROLE AS A FULL ON METHOD ACTOR. SHE'S TAKING THIS VERY, VERY SERIOUSLY. AND SOURCES TELL ME, KYRA, THAT SHE'S GOT A FEW GOALS FOR THIS DEBATE. SHE STILL WANTS TO CONTINUE TO EDUCATE THE AMERICAN PEOPLE ABOUT WHO SHE IS, HER MIDDLE CLASS UPBRINGING, HER BACKGROUND AS A PROSECUTOR, AS A SENATOR, AS AN ATTORNEY GENERAL. SHE WANTS TO CONTINUE TO LAY OUT HER ECONOMIC POLICIES TO THE AMERICAN. AND, OF COURSE, SHE WANTS TO TRY AND GET UNDER DONALD TRUMP'S SKIN WHILE MAINTAINING HER OWN COMPOSURE. JAY I THINK IT'S JUST WILD THAT THEY HAVE NEVER EVEN MET IN PERSON AFTER ALL THESE YEARS. AND TRUMP'S SMALL GROUP OF ADVISERS NOW, INCLUDING CONGRESSMAN MATT GATES AND, FORMER CONGRESSWOMAN TULSI GABBARD, HELPING HIM PREPARE FOR THIS MOMENT. WHAT MORE DO WE KNOW YET HERE? THINK ABOUT IT THIS WAY. THE FIRST TIME DONALD TRUMP AND KAMALA HARRIS WILL LOOK INTO EACH OTHER'S EYES IN PERSON AND MEET WILL BE ON THAT DEBATE STAGE IN THEIR BEHIND ME. AND I CAN TELL YOU, I'VE GOTTEN LOOK AT IT AND IT'S CLOSE QUARTERS IN THERE. THEY'RE GOING TO BE VERY CLOSE TO ONE ANOTHER. THE THING ABOUT DONALD TRUMP'S DEBATE PREP TO KEEP IN IS IT GIVES YOU A LITTLE BIT OF A WINDOW INTO HIS POSSIBLE LINES ATTACK AGAINST HARRIS. AS YOU SAID, HE'S NOT DOING, AS ONE WOULD CHARACTERIZE, MOCK DEBATES. HE'S INSTEAD AS HIS ADVISERS CHARACTERIZE IT, DOING THESE KIND OF INFORMAL POLICY SESSIONS. IT'S THE EXACT SAME WAY HE FRAMED HIS PREPARATION FOR THAT PREVIOUS DEBATE, PRESIDENT BIDEN. HE'S MEETING WITH TULSI GABBARD, AS YOU SAID, DEMOCRATIC WHO HAS FACED KAMALA HARRIS ON THE DEBATE STAGE BEFORE AND TOOK HER TO TASK ON HER RECORD AS A PROSECUTOR. THAT'S A LITTLE BIT OF INSIGHT INTO A POSSIBLE LINE OF ATTACK THAT TRUMP WILL EMPLOY. HE'S ALSO HEARING FROM MAC GATES. MAC GATES IS A CONSERVATIVE FIREBRAND. HE'S A BOMB THROWER. AND DONALD TRUMP LIKES TO CHARACTERIZE HIMSELF AS A COUNTERPUNCHER ON THE DEBATE STAGE. SO IT GIVES YOU A LITTLE BIT OF A WINDOW INTO HIS STRATEGY TOMORROW NIGHT. WHILE SELINA HARRIS FINALLY ADDED THIS LONG AWAITED PAGE TO HER WEBSITE. >> WHY DID IT TAKE SO LONG? YEAH, HERE. I MEAN, IN THE BEGINNING WEEKS OF VICE PRESIDENT HARRIS ANNOUNCING HER CANDIDACY REALLY WANTED TO JUST RIDE ON THAT EUPHORIA, THAT WAVE OF EUPHORIA AND EXCITEMENT AROUND HER AND HER TEAM. CLEARLY WANT TO GET BOGGED DOWN INTO THE NITTY GRITTY POLICY DETAILS. BUT CLEARLY, WHERE SHE STANDS AND HER ISSUES IS BECOMING A VULNERABILITY FOR HER. >> THAT LATEST "NEW YORK TIMES" SIENA POLL SHOWS THAT ABOUT ONE THIRD OF VOTERS SAY THEY WANT TO LEARN MORE ABOUT HER. THAT IS, OF COURSE, A VULNERABILITY DONALD TRUMP DOES NOT HAVE. AND MANY OF THOSE VOTERS ALSO SAY THAT THEY WANT TO UNDERSTAND MORE ABOUT WHERE SHE STANDS ON THE ISSUES, ESPECIALLY SINCE SHE HAS MODERATED HER POSITION QUITE SIGNIFICANTLY, SINCE WHEN SHE WAS RUNNING IN THE 2020 DEMOCRATIC PRIMARIES. NOW, HER WEBSITE DOES GO INTO MORE DETAIL ABOUT SOME OF THE ECONOMIC POLICY PROPOSALS THAT SHE'S ALREADY LAID OUT AROUND LOWERING PRICES FOR AMERICANS, GOING AFTER CORPORATE PRICE GOUGING, HER PLANS TO MAKE HOUSING MORE AFFORDABLE AMONG NUMBER OF OTHER ISSUES. AND THAT'S ALSO WHAT SHE WANTS TO ACCOMPLISH ON THAT STAGE, IS TO MAKE CLEAR WHERE SHE STANDS NOW IN WANTING TO RUN AS A MORE MODERATE DEMOCRAT. >> ALL RIGHT, SELINA THERE AT THE WHITE HOUSE FOR US THERE IN PHILLY. SEE YOU SOON. THANKS, GUYS. YOU KNOW, THERE'S A LOT RIDING ON THIS DEBATE FOR BOTH CANDIDATES, AS WE ALL KNOW NOW AND NOW THERE'S THIS NEW POLL THAT'S ACTUALLY SHOWING THAT THE RACE IS NECK AND NECK . THE NEW YORK TIMES SIENA COLLEGE POLL INDICATES THAT VOTERS WANT TO LEARN MORE ABOUT VICE PRESIDENT HARRIS AS WELL BEFORE CASTING BALLOT. OUR WASHINGTON BUREAU CHIEF AND POLITICAL DIRECTOR RICK KLEIN HAS THE DETAILS FOR US. >> RICK, YOU'RE A TIGHT RACE FOR PRESIDENT IN SOME WAYS HAS GOTTEN EVEN TIGHTER IN THE LAST COUPLE OF DAYS GIVEN THE POLLS HAVE ROLLED IN. OUR FIVETHIRTYEIGHT POLLING AVERAGE NOW HAS HARRIS LEADING TRUMP LESS THAN THREE PERCENTAGE POINTS. FOR A WHILE, IT SEEMED LIKE SHE HAD SOME MOMENTUM WAS STARTING TO PULL AWAY A BIT. THAT APPEARS TO HAVE STALLED OUT. AND IN THE BATTLEGROUND STATES, WE HAVE SETTLED INTO A VERY CLOSE RACE IN ALMOST ALL OF THOSE STATES. HARRIS NOW LEADING BUT NARROWLY IN FIVE OF THE SEVEN BATTLEGROUNDS RIGHT HERE IN PENNSYLVANIA, WHERE THE DEBATE WILL BE TOMORROW NIGHT. HARRIS' LEAD IS NOW LESS A PERCENTAGE POINT. THAT'S BASICALLY A TOSS UP, AND THAT'S IN THE BIGGEST AND PROBABLY MOST IMPORTANT OF THE BATTLEGROUND STATES. AND IN TERMS OF PERCEPTIONS, WHAT HARRIS HAS TO DO, TOMORROW NIGHT GETS REALLY WELL DEFINED BY THE. ALMOST A THIRD OF VOTERS OVERALL SAY FOR THE SITTING VICE PRESIDENT. THEY NEED TO LEARN MORE ABOUT HER AND HER POSITIONS TO DECIDE WHO TO VOTE FOR AND HOW TO VOTE. LESS THAN ONE IN TEN VOTERS, 9% SAY THE SAME ABOUT DONALD TRUMP. SO DONALD TRUMP GOES IN MUCH DEFINED IN TERMS OF HOW THEY'RE DEFINED. ALMOST HALF OF VOTERS, THEY THINK KAMALA HARRIS IS TOO LIBERAL. LESS THAN A THIRD SAY THAT DONALD TRUMP IS TOO CONSERVATIVE. AT THE SAME TIME, A MAJORITY OF VOTERS SAY THEY WANT A BREAK FROM JOE BIDEN. HARRIS COURSE IS JOE BIDEN'S VICE PRESIDENT. SO IT ALL LINES UP TO MAKE A SERIES OF CHALLENGES. SHE HAS TO DEFINE HERSELF. SHE HAS TO DEFINE HERSELF AS A MODERATE AND SHE HAS TO DEFINE HERSELF AS MORE DISTINCT FROM JOE BIDEN THAN MANY VOTERS CURRENTLY BELIEVE KYRA. >> ALL RIGHT. THANKS MUCH AND I'LL SEE YOU SOON, TOO. SO MARKET ON YOUR CALENDAR BECAUSE. IT'S ONE OF THE MOST HIGH STAKES PRESIDENTIAL DEBATES TO DATE. IT'S HAPPENING RIGHT HERE ON ABC NEWS LIVE. THE FIRST FACE OFF BETWEEN FORMER PRESIDENT TRUMP AND VICE PRESIDENT KAMALA HARRIS TOMORROW NIGHT, 9 P.M.. WE HEADED TO PHILLY TODAY, SO WE WILL SEE YOU THERE. MILLIONS OF YOU ALONG THE GULF COAST ARE ON ALERT NOW AS FRANCINE IS TURNING INTO TROPICAL STORM AND IS ON ITS WAY TO BECOMING A HURRICANE THIS WEEK. THE NATIONAL HURRICANE CENTER FORECASTING THAT FOR US. FRANCINE IS JUST GOING TO KEEP GROWING BEFORE MAKING LANDFALL IN LOUISIANA. THEN ON THE WEST COAST, THE STATE OF EMERGENCY IS ALREADY IN EFFECT IN SAN BERNARDINO COUNTY BECAUSE OF A FAST MOVING FIRE. SCORCHING TEMPERATURES, THE FIGHT, THE LINE FIRE MORE DIFFICULT AS SAY AT LEAST 17,000 ACRES HAVE NOW BEEN BURNED. OUR METEOROLOGIST SOMARA THEODORE JOINS ME NOW. SO SMART. LET'S GO AND START WITH THE STORM ON THE GULF COAST, IF YOU DON'T MIND. TALK ABOUT WHAT WE CAN EXPECT AND WHERE IT'S HEADED. >> AREN'T HERE. YEAH, LET'S DO IT. SO RIGHT, WE HAVE TROPICAL STORM FRANCINE, WHICH COULD BECOME A HURRICANE AS SOON AS TOMORROW, MAKING LANDFALL MORE LIKELY ON WEDNESDAY. THE CORE OF THE STORM RIGHT NOW IS HITTING 480 MILES SOUTH, SOUTHWEST OF CAMERON, LOUISIANA, AS YOU SEE HERE. NOW, WHAT WE'RE ANTICIPATING IS THAT IN THE COMING HOURS AND COMING DAYS THAT THIS STORM WILL CONTINUE TO DRIVE TOWARDS LOUISIANA. SO THE THE CONE OF UNCERTAINTY THAT MEANS THE CENTER OF THE STORM COULD FALL ANYWHERE AS FAR WEST AS BORDER OF TEXAS AND LOUISIANA, AS FAR EAST AS NEW ORLEANS. NONETHELESS, IT IS LIKELY TO STRENGTHEN TO A CAT ONE BY THE TIME IT MAKES LANDFALL. >> SO HERE'S THE THE FORECAST IN TERMS OF TIMING. THIS IS LUNCHTIME ON. NOTICE WHERE THE CORE OF THE STORM IS, BUT ALSO NOTICE WHERE THE RAIN BANDS ARE. THEY'RE ALREADY REACHING FAR UP INTO INTO HOUSTON, GALVESTON, LAKE CHARLES, NEW ORLEANS, GETTING WHIPPED BY RAIN FROM FRANCINE AS WE HEAD THROUGH TUESDAY AFTERNOON AND EVENING. THE CORE OF THE STORM GETS CLOSER AND CLOSER TO LOUISIANA . THIS PROJECTED MODEL HERE HAS IT DRIVING IN VERY TO LAKE CHARLES AND CAMERON, THE CENTER OF THE STORM IS AND THAT'S BY WEDNESDAY AFTERNOON. AND, YOU KNOW, WE'RE GOING TO BE EXPECTING NOT JUST THE HEAVY RAINFALL WITH THIS SYSTEM, BUT ALSO THE THREAT FOR LIFE THREATENING STORM SURGE. THAT'S SOMETHING TO BE VERY, VERY VIGILANT ABOUT. BUT FLASH FLOODING IN THE AREAS SHADED IN RED HERE. SO I-10 ACROSS THE ENTIRETY OF LOUISIANA RIGHT ON INTO THE SOUTHERN OF MISSISSIPPI KYRA. >> ALL RIGHT, SOMARA APPRECIATE . THANKS SO MUCH. WELL, PRINCESS KATE SAYS THAT SHE IS DONE WITH CHEMO, IS NOW CANCER FREE. THE PRINCESS OF WALES SHARING THE GOOD NEWS IN A HIGHLY PRODUCED SHARED BY BUCKINGHAM PALACE TODAY. JUST SIX MONTHS AFTER OPENING UP ABOUT HER DIAGNOSIS, KATE SAYS FOCUS IS NOW STAYING CANCER FREE WHILE LOOKING AHEAD TO HER NEW JOURNEY. >> ALTHOUGH I FINISHED CHEMOTHERAPY, MY PATH TO HEALING AND FULL RECOVERY IS LONG AND I MUST CONTINUE TO TAKE EACH DAY AS IT COMES. I AM, HOWEVER, LOOKING FORWARD TO BEING BACK AT WORK AND UNDERTAKING A FEW MORE PUBLIC ENGAGEMENTS IN THE COMING WHEN I CAN. DESPITE ALL THAT'S GONE BEFORE I ENTER THIS NEW PHASE OF RECOVERY WITH, A RENEWED SENSE OF HOPE AND APPRECIATION OF LIFE. >> LET'S BRING IN OUR FOREIGN CORRESPONDENT MAGGIE RULLI NOW OUT OF LONDON. SO, MAGGIE, WHAT MORE DO WE KNOW ABOUT KATE'S CONDITION? WELL, YOU KNOW, I THINK WHAT'S MOST STRIKING, WHAT WE'VE LEARNED TODAY, JUST BEING ABLE TO HEAR FROM PRINCESS KATE IN HER OWN WORDS. NOW, THAT VIDEO IS REALLY EXTRAORDINARY. WE HAVEN'T REALLY SEEN ANYTHING LIKE IT FROM THE ROYAL FAMILY, SOMETHING THAT WAS SO PERSONAL AND SO INTIMATE. AND KATE REALLY GETS VULNERABLE. WE HEARD IT THERE HERSELF TALKING ABOUT, YOU KNOW, LOOKING AT LIFE IN A NEW WAY, HAVING A NEW. AND, OF COURSE, WE STILL DON'T KNOW ANY NEW DETAILS ABOUT EXACTLY WHAT TYPE OF CANCER SHE HAD, WHAT STAGE IT WAS, WHAT HER TREATMENT PLAN WAS, THAT THE PALACE HAS SAID SHE WISHES TO REMAIN PRIVATE, BUT SHE DID OPEN UP SAYING THAT SHE HAS FINISHED HER ROUND OF CHEMOTHERAPY, THAT HER FOCUS RIGHT NOW IS ON STAYING CANCER FREE. BUT SHE ALSO ACKNOWLEDGED IT'S A LONG ROAD TO RECOVERY. AND WHILE SHE'S DONE WITH THIS ROUND OF CHEMOTHERAPY, HER JOURNEY IS BY NO MEANS OVER. SHE'S GOING TO TAKE IT SLOW, RELYING ON FAMILY. SHE TOOK THE TIME TO REALLY THANK THE PUBLIC FOR THEIR PRIVACY FOR THEIR SUPPORT AND ALSO CARE. WHAT REALLY STUCK WITH ME IS THAT WHEN SHE ENDS THIS VIDEO, SHE MAKES A POINT TO SAY, I'M STILL WITH EVERYONE . THEIR CANCER JOURNEY. SHE UNDERSTANDS SO MANY PEOPLE ARE GOING THROUGH EITHER THEIR OWN JOURNEY OR THEIR JOURNEY WITH OTHER, YOU KNOW, MEDICAL TRAGEDIES AS WELL. AND SHE'S MAKING THE POINT. SHE GETS IT NOW. SHE'S BEEN THROUGH IT. HER FAMILY'S BEEN IT, AND SHE'S GOING TO STAY SIDE BY SIDE WITH THEM KYRA. MAGGIE, GREAT. SEE YOU. THANK YOU FOR THE UPDATE. ALL RIGHT. COMING UP, BIG FROM THE JUDGE IN THE CASE OF THE IDAHO UNIVERSITY KILLINGS. PLUS, KENTUCKY RESIDENTS ARE ON EDGE AS A HIGHWAY SHOOTER IS STILL ON THE LOOSE. WE'RE TRYING TO TRACK IT NEXT. WHENEVER THE NEWS BREAKS. >> WE ARE HERE IN ISRAEL, A NATION AT 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 MISSILE STRIKE IN UKRAINE. REPORTING FROM THE EARTHQUAKE IN TURKEY IN ROLLING FORTH THIS TORNADO TORE THROUGH THIS LITTLE TOWN FROM THE MOST DEVASTATING DISASTER IN HAWAII, FROM CHARLESTON, SOUTH CAROLINA, ON THE 2024 CAMPAIGN TRAIL IN ICELAND. LET'S GO TRAVELING WITH THE PRESIDENT IN MEXICO CITY. WHEREVER THE STORY IS ON THE FRONT LINES FROM SOUTHERN ISRAEL OUTSIDE THE GAZA STRIP IN FOR THE FBI, REPORTING FROM THE NURSES ON THE PICKET LINE HERE AT TEN DOWNING STREET IN LONDON, STREAMING LIVE TO YOU WHEREVER THE STORY IS, WHEREVER THE STORY IS, WHEREVER THE STORY IS, WE'RE GOING TO TAKE YOU THERE. WE'RE STREAMING ABC NEWS LIVE, ABC NEWS LIVE, YOU'RE STREAMING, ABC NEWS LIVE, ABC NEWS LIVE STREAMING EVERYWHERE. AMERICA'S NUMBER ONE STREAMING NEWS IF YOU WERE COMING OF AGE IN THE 1980S, THE BRAT PACK WAS NEAR THE CENTER OF YOUR CULTURAL AWARENESS. BUT FOR THOSE OF US, IT FROM THE INSIDE, THE BRAT PACK WAS SOMETHING VERY THAT CRITICS AGREE HAS MADE A DIFFERENCE. WHAT A DISASTER. >> WHY DID WE TAKE IT AS AN OFFENSE AND NOW, LIKE I, SAY, WE'RE BEETLES? WELL, WE DIDN'T KILL SHEA STADIUM 1985. I THINK WE COULD HAVE CUT IT. >> ABC NEWS LIVE HONORED WITH EIGHT EMMY NOMINATIONS MORE THAN ANY OTHER STREAMING NEWS NETWORK. ABC NEWS LIVE PRIME WITH LINSEY DAVIS FIRST AND ONLY STREAMING SHOW NOMINATED FOR BEST OUTSTANDING LIVE NEWS PROGRAM. THIS IS ABC NEWS LIVE. IT'S THE MOST MOMENT OF THIS CAMPAIGN NOW. KAMALA HARRIS, DONALD FACE TO FACE. THE ABC NEWS PRESIDENTIAL DEBATE MODERATED BY DAVID MUIR AND LINSEY DAVIS TOMORROW NIGHT LIVE ON ABC STREAMING ON HULU AND DISNEY PLUS. >> ALL RIGHT. WE HAVE BREAKING NEWS BRING YOU RIGHT NOW. THE JUDGE OVERSEEING THE IDAHO COLLEGE MURDER CASE OF BRIAN KOHBERGER HAS GRANTED A CHANGE OF VENUE FOR HIS UPCOMING TRIAL. THIS COMES AFTER THE DEFENSE SUCCESSFULLY ARGUED IT WAS TOO GREAT OF A RISK PULL A JURY FROM THE AREA THAT THE KILLINGS OCCURRED IN 2020. COWORKERS OF MURDERING FOUR UNIVERSITY OF IDAHO STUDENTS IN THEIR OFF CAMPUS. OUR LEGAL CONTRIBUTOR AND TRIAL ATTORNEY BRIAN BUCKMIRE JOINS ME NOW FOR MORE. SO, BRIAN, ARE YOU SURPRISED THAT THEY GOT A VENUE CHANGE? >> NOT NOT REALLY. AFTER LISTENING TO THE ARGUMENTS, LOOKING AT THE STANDARDS, I THOUGHT THIS WAS PRETTY POSSIBLE, ESPECIALLY WHEN I REMINDED THEM OF THE FACT OF IDAHO MOVING ANOTHER MAJOR CASE JUST A MONTH AGO AND TALKING ABOUT CHAD DAYBELL. THAT CASE WAS IN IDAHO AS WELL, AND MOVED TO ADA COUNTY FROM WHERE IT WAS NOW. AND LISTENING TO THE ARGUMENTS AND THE DECISION AS WELL, JUST UNDERSTANDING THAT THE JUDGE IS SAYING YES TO THE FACT THAT IT WAS REASONABLY LIKELY THERE'D BE A PRESUMPTION OF PREJUDICE IF THE CASE REMAINED IN THIS VENUE BASED ON ALL OF THE PUBLICITY. BUT HE ALSO ARGUED THAT THE AREA OF LAYTON COUNTY JUST ISN'T BIG ENOUGH, THAT LOCAL POLICE WANT TO COME INTO THE COURT TO HELP MONITOR THE CASE AS IT GOES ON. AND OF COURSE, THEY'RE NOT BIG ENOUGH FOR SUCH A MAJOR CASE. SO IT MADE SENSE TO MOVE IT. >> SO WHAT HAPPENS NEXT? WELL, JUDGE, WILL THE JUDGE REMAIN ON THE CASE? SO UNLIKELY THAT THE JUDGE WILL REMAIN IN THE CASE. WHAT HAPPENS NEXT IS THE HAS ACTUALLY ORDERED THIS CASE TO GO TO THE STATE SUPREME COURT TO THEN DECIDE WHERE IT SHOULD GO WITHIN THE STATE. MORE LIKELY THAN NOT THE CASE WHEN IT GETS TRANSFERRED. WE HAVE THE SAME PROSECUTORS IN THE SAME DEFENSE ATTORNEYS OF COURSE. >> BUT WHEREVER IT GO AND PROBABLY GO TO A JUDGE IN THAT COUNTY. ALL RIGHT, BRIAN BUCKMIRE, GOOD TO SEE YOU. SO AN URGENT MANHUNT ON THE WAY RIGHT NOW IN KENTUCKY NOW STRETCHING INTO ITS THIRD DAY. POLICE ARE LOOKING FOR THE SUSPECT THAT THEY SAY SERIOUSLY INJURED AT LEAST FIVE DRIVERS ALONG A STRETCH OF INTERSTATE 75, JUST AN HOUR SOUTHEAST OF LEXINGTON. POLICE ARE ACTIVELY LOOKING FOR THIS MAN. HE IS IDENTIFIED AS 32 YEAR OLD JOSEPH COUCH, WHO ALLEGEDLY HID IN A HEAVILY WOODED AREA NEAR THE RAMP OFF OF EXIT 49 AND THEN SHOT AS MANY AS 12 VEHICLES ON THE HIGHWAY. SEVERAL PEOPLE WERE WOUNDED BY THE GUNFIRE, BUT THANKFULLY NO FATALITIES. SO FAR, AUTHORITIES THAT THEY'VE RECOVERED A VEHICLE ASSOCIATED WITH COUCH AND AN AR-15 ASSAULT STYLE RIFLE. LET'S BRING IN OUR ALEX PRESHA . HE IS NEAR THE SCENE THERE IN LONDON, KENTUCKY, ALONG WITH OUR CONTRIBUTOR AND FORMER FBI AGENT BRAD GARRETT. SO, AX, LET'S TALK ABOUT JUST THE LATEST UPDATE MORE. DO WE KNOW FROM POLICE ABOUT THE SUSPECT AND JUST HOW ALL THIS UNFOLDED? HEY, CAROL. SO WE WE GOT THIS WITHIN THE LAST HOUR. THIS IS THE ARREST WARRANT FOR 32-YEAR-OLD JOSEPH COUCH. IT'S EIGHT PAGES LONG AND IT DETAILS WHAT HE WILL BE CHARGED WITH. HE FACES FIRST DEGREE ASSAULT CHARGES AND ATTEMPTED MURDER CHARGES FOR ALL FIVE OF THOSE VICTIMS THAT WERE INJURED IN SATURDAY'S INCIDENT. NOW, YOU MENTIONED ON THAT ON SATURDAY, WHENEVER HE WAS SHOOTING AT THESE CARS, AT LEAST 12 THAT WE KNOW OF THAT WERE HIT, THAT IS ACCORDING TO LAW ENFORCEMENT. NOW, THAT NUMBER HAS HAS CHANGED OVER THE LAST 48 HOURS ,AND THAT'S FRANKLY, BECAUSE IT'S A HIGHWAY. AND MANY OF THESE PEOPLE REALIZE THAT THEIR VEHICLE HAD BEEN STRUCK BY GUNFIRE UNTIL THEY GOT TO WHERE THEY WERE. WE TALKED TO AT LEAST ONE WOMAN WHO WAS IN TENNESSEE BEFORE SHE REALIZED THAT A BULLET HAD EITHER HIT OR RICOCHETED OFF OF HER CAR. AND SO THAT KIND OF GIVES YOU A SENSE AS TO JUST HOW EXPANSIVE THIS INVESTIGATION IS AND ALSO JUST HOW HARD IT IS FOR MANY OF THESE INVESTIGATORS AND THEN LAW ENFORCEMENT TO FIND DETAILS ABOUT THIS CASE. >> SO WE'RE ON THE THIRD DAY OF THIS SEARCH NOW. SEVERAL AGENCIES ARE INVOLVED, THE FBI. HOW DIFFICULT DO YOU THINK THIS IS GOING TO BE? I ME WE'VE COVERED SEARCHES LIKE THIS A NUMBER OF TIMES. IT CAN THEY CAN FIND THEM WITHIN HOURS. SOMETIMES IT TAKES A COUPLE OF MONTHS. >> SO, YOU KNOW, THE REAL QUESTION HERE IS, IS THIS PARTICULAR SUSPECT IN THE SEARCH AREA? YOU KNOW, I'M SORT OF UNCLEAR ABOUT THE TIMEFRAME HERE OF THE AMOUNT OF LEAD TIME HE HAD IN WORDS. THE SHOOTING, I THINK, OCCURRED LATE AFTERNOON. I THINK BY THE TIME THE POLICE GOT THERE, IT WAS ALMOST DARK. >> SO HE HAD SOME LEAD TIME, ASSUMING HE LEFT RIGHT AFTER THE SHOOTING. AND SO THE QUESTION IS, BECAUSE HE LEFT HIS CAR BEHIND. DID HE HAVE OTHER AUTOMOBILE TRANSPORTATION PARKED SOMEPLACE ? >> DID HE HIDE IN THIS AREA THAT THEY'RE SEARCHING? ACCORDING TO LAW ENFORCEMENT THERE? THERE'S A LOT OF CAVES, TUNNELS. AND IT'S SO DENSELY POPULATED FROM A WOODED STANDPOINT AND UNDERGROWTH STANDPOINT. APPARENTLY EXTREMELY RURAL. >> I'VE DONE SEARCHES LIKE THAT. YOU TO SLOW AND GO BECAUSE YOU DON'T KNOW WHAT YOU'RE WALKING INTO. SO YOU HAVE TO BE REALLY CAREFUL AS YOU MOVE FORWARD. I DON'T KNOW IF THEY KNOW HE'S ARMED OR NOT. >> SO ANSWER YOUR QUESTION. IT IT COULD HAPPEN WITHIN A REASONABLE AMOUNT OF TIME OR NOT. I MEAN, IF THERE'S EXTENSIVE CAVE AND TUNNEL SYSTEM AROUND THERE, YOU'RE GOING HAVE TO GET AN EXPERT THAT KNOWS THOSE THAT WAS THERE TO HELP YOU MAYBE GUIDE WHERE THEY GO AND WHERE HE HE MIGHT POTENTIALLY BE. >> ALL RIGHT. SO, ALEX, MULTIPLE SCHOOL DISTRICTS IN THE REGION NOW ARE CLOSED WHILE THIS CONTINUES. WHAT ELSE IS THE COMMUNITY DOING TO SORT OF DEAL WITH THIS AND STAY VIGILANT? >> WELL, TO YOUR POINT AND GOING INTO TODAY, WE KNEW THAT LAUREL COUNTY IS WHERE THIS INCIDENT HAPPENED, THAT THAT SCHOOL SYSTEM WAS GOING TO BE CLOSING. BUT WE'VE HEARD THAT AT LEAST NINE DIFFERENT SCHOOL DISTRICTS AROUND REGION HAVE HAVE CLOSED JUST OUT OF ADD OUT OF PRECAUTION. LISTEN THEY'VE URGED THE COMMUNITY TO REMAIN VIGILANT AND CERTAINLY KNOW THERE IS A HEIGHTENED SENSE OF OF OF TENSENESS HERE AS AS PEOPLE REALIZE THAT, YES, THERE LAW ENFORCEMENT IS OPTIMISTIC THAT THEY HAVE THIS SUSPECT TO A PARTICULAR REMOTE AREA. BUT THERE'S A THERE'S THERE'S A REALIZATION IT IS POSSIBLE THAT HE MAY HAVE SLIPPED OUT. AND IF HE'S IN THIS COMMUNITY, PEOPLE CERTAINLY ARE ON GUARD FOR THAT. >> WELL, WE'LL STAY ON THE STORY FOR SURE. ALEX, BRAD, THANK YOU BOTH. SOME MORE ARE SWIRLING OUT OF GEORGIA NOW AS TO WHETHER THE APALACHEE SCHOOL SHOOTING COULD HAVE BEEN AVOIDED. THE AND ACCUSED GUNMAN COLT GRAY IS NOW TELLING ABC NEWS IT WAS HIS OWN MOTHER WHO CALLED HER SON'S SCHOOL TO ACTUALLY OF AN EXTREME EMERGENCY. JUST 30 MINUTES BEFORE POLICE SAY THE 14 YEAR OLD GUNNED DOWN TWO CLASSMATES AND TWO TEACHERS. BUT THE SHERIFF'S OFFICE IS SHUTTING. THOSE ALLEGATIONS SAY THAT THE SCHOOL DISTRICT CLAIMS THAT THEY HAD NO RECORD OF EVEN BEING NOTIFIED. FAITH ABUBEY THERE ON THE GROUND IN GEORGIA. STILL WITH THE LATEST DEVELOPMENTS, FAITH. >> NEW QUESTIONS ABOUT WHETHER THERE WERE MISSED SIGNS AHEAD OF A GEORGIA SCHOOL SHOOTING THAT KILLED FOUR PEOPLE AND INJURED NINE OTHERS. >> THE SCHOOL IS SUPPOSED TO BE A SAFE PLACE FOR KIDS BECAUSE THE ACCUSED GUNMAN'S AUNT TELLING ABC ROUGHLY 30 MINUTES BEFORE THE SHOOTING AT APALACHEE HIGH SCHOOL IN COURT, GRAY'S MOTHER CALLED A SCHOOL COUNSELOR TO WARN OF AN EXTREME EMERGENCY. HIS MOTHER, MARCY GRACE, SPEAKING TO ABC NEWS OVERNIGHT, SAYING SHE TRIED TO GET HIM THE HELP HE NEEDED TO TO BRING THE. >> THE TELLING "THE WASHINGTON POST" THAT DURING THE TEN MINUTE CONVERSATION, A SCHOOL COUNSELOR TOLD MARCI GRAY THAT HER SON HAD SPOKEN ABOUT A SCHOOL SHOOTING THE SAME MORNING. CLASSMATE LILA SCIARRA TELLING ABC NEWS THAT A SCHOOL ADMINISTRATOR CONFISCATED A BACKPACK OF A STUDENT WITH A SIMILAR NAME. >> A LITTLE BIT LATER. HE CAME BACK IN WITH HIS BAG AND HE SAID THAT THEY WEREN'T FOR HIM. >> THEY WERE LOOKING FOR COAT. MOMENTS LATER, THE ACCUSED TEENAGER ALLEGEDLY OPENED FIRE OUTSIDE THE CLASSROOM DOOR . AND KIARA, THE ALLEGED SHOOTER AND HIS FATHER, ARE BOTH FACING MULTIPLE FELONY CHARGES RELATED TO THIS MASS SHOOTING. THEY HAVE NOT ENTERED A PLEA IN COURT. IN THE MEANTIME, THOUGH, SCHOOL DISTRICT OFFICIALS ARE NOT ON THE FAMILY'S ALLEGATIONS THAT THEY WERE WARNED. BUT THE BUREAU COUNTY SHERIFF TELLS ME IT'S MISINFORMATION KYRA. >> ALL RIGHT. THANK YOU. STRAIGHT AHEAD, VENEZUELA'S OPPOSITION LEADER IN HIDING AFTER A VIOLENT CRACKDOWN CARRIED OUT BY THE COUNTRY'S DICTATOR, MADURO. WE'VE GOT THE DETAILS NEXT. >> WHAT DOES IT TAKE TO?

WHAT A DISASTER. >> WHY DID WE TAKE IT AS AN OFFENSE AFTER THAT? LIKE, SAY WE WERE THE BEATLES? >> WELL, WE DIDN'T SELL SHEA STADIUM 1980 FIVE.

AND AN URGENT MANHUNT UNDERWAY RIGHT NOW AFTER A SHOOTING AT A KENTUCKY HIGHWAY. WHERE THE INVESTIGATION STANDS AT THIS HOUR. AND GOOD AFTERNOON, EVERYONE. I'M KYRA PHILLIPS. OUR TOP STORY DOWN THE HOURS. VICE PRESIDENT KAMALA HARRIS AND. FORMER PRESIDENT DONALD TRUMP SET TO FACE OFF FOR THE VERY FIRST TIME IN TOMORROW'S PRESIDENTIAL DEBATE RIGHT HERE ON ABC LIVE. WE ARE TOLD THAT TRUMP IS HOLDING INFORMAL POLICY SESSIONS, A SMALL TEAM OF HIS ADVISERS. WHILE HARRIS SAYS SHE'S READY TO GO AFTER A WEEKEND OF INTENSE DEBATE PRACTICE WITH, HER TEAM SAYING IN A RADIO INTERVIEW SHE'S EVEN PREPARING FOR TRUMP'S LIES. >> TAKE A LISTEN. IS NOT FAIR FOR HIM IN TERMS OF HOW HE WILL GO AND AND WE SHOULD BE PREPARED FOR THAT, THAT WE SHOULD BE PREPARED FOR THE FACT THAT HE IS NOT BURDENED BY TELLING THE TRUTH. AND WE SHOULD BE PREPARED FOR THE FACT THAT HE IS PROBABLY GOING TO SPEAK A LOT OF UNTRUTHS. >> WELL, WITH ONLY 56 DAYS UNTIL ELECTION DAY, WE DO HAVE TEAM COVERAGE STARTING US OFF WITH SENIOR WHITE HOUSE CORRESPONDENT SELINA WANG, ALONG WITH OUR JAY O'BRIEN, WHO'S NOW THE DEBATE SITE RIGHT THERE IN PHILLY. SELINA HARRIS ALREADY LAYING THE GROUNDWORK THAT TRUMP IS GOING TO LIE DURING THIS DEBATE. SO GIVE US THE DETAILS. WHAT ARE YOU LEARNING AND WHAT ARE YOUR SOURCES TELLING YOU ABOUT HOW SHE'S PREPARING NOW? >> WELL, KYRA, SOURCES TELL ME THAT VICE PRESIDENT HARRIS IS PREPARED FOR WHATEVER VERSION OF DONALD TRUMP SHOWS UP ON THAT DEBATE STAGE. >> AND YOU HEARD HER IN THAT RADIO INTERVIEW. SHE CLEARLY EXPECTATIONS THAT REGARDLESS, SHE IS PREPARED FOR DONALD TRUMP TO REPEATEDLY LIE. NOW, THERE IS A LOT ON THE LINE IN THIS DEBATE FOR VICE PRESIDENT HARRIS. THIS WOULD BE DONALD TRUMP'S SEVENTH GENERAL ELECTION PRESIDENTIAL DEBATE. IT WILL ONLY BE HER FIRST. SO THAT'S PART OF THE REASON WHY SHE'S SO INTENSELY PREPARING. SHE'S TRYING TO DO HER BEST TO RECREATE THE ENVIRONMENT THAT SHE'S GOING TO CONFRONT THAT DEBATE STAGE. SHE'S BEEN DOING THESE FULL MOCK DEBATE SESSIONS WITH FULL LIGHTING, WITH THE TRUMP STANDARD, WHO I'M TOLD IS REALLY APPROACHING HIS ROLE AS A FULL ON METHOD ACTOR. SHE'S TAKING THIS VERY, VERY SERIOUSLY. AND SOURCES TELL ME, KYRA, THAT SHE'S GOT A FEW GOALS FOR THIS DEBATE. SHE STILL WANTS CONTINUE TO EDUCATE THE AMERICAN PEOPLE ABOUT WHO SHE IS, HER MIDDLE CLASS, HER BACKGROUND AS A PROSECUTOR, AS A SENATOR, AS AN ATTORNEY GENERAL. SHE WANTS TO CONTINUE TO LAY OUT HER ECONOMIC POLICIES TO THE AMERICAN PEOPLE. AND, OF COURSE, SHE WANTS TO TRY TO GET UNDER DONALD TRUMP'S SKIN WHILE MAINTAINING HER OWN COMPOSURE. >> OKAY. J I THINK IT'S JUST WILD THAT THEY HAVE NEVER EVEN MET IN PERSON AFTER ALL THESE YEARS. AND TRUMP'S SMALL GROUP ADVISERS NOW, INCLUDING CONGRESSMAN MATT GAETZ AND, FORMER CONGRESSWOMAN TULSI GABBARD, HELPING HIM PREPARE FOR THIS MOMENT. WHAT MORE DO WE KNOW YET HERE? THINK ABOUT IT THIS WAY. THE FIRST TIME DONALD TRUMP AND KAMALA HARRIS WILL EVER LOOK INTO EACH OTHER'S EYES IN PERSON AND MEET WILL BE ON THAT DEBATE STAGE IN THERE BEHIND ME. AND I CAN TELL YOU, I'VE GOTTEN LOOK AT IT AND IT'S CLOSE QUARTERS IN THERE. THEY'RE GOING TO BE VERY CLOSE TO ONE ANOTHER. THE THING ABOUT DONALD TRUMP'S DEBATE PREP TO KEEP IN IS IT GIVES YOU A LITTLE BIT OF A WINDOW INTO HIS POSSIBLE LINES OF ATTACK AGAINST HARRIS. AS YOU SAID, HE'S NOT DOING, AS ONE WOULD CHARACTERIZE, MOCK DEBATES. HE'S INSTEAD AS ADVISERS CHARACTERIZE IT, DOING THESE KIND OF INFORMAL POLICY SESSIONS. IT'S THE EXACT SAME WAY HE FRAMED HIS PREPARATION FOR THAT PREVIOUS DEBATE, PRESIDENT BIDEN. HE'S MEETING WITH TULSI GABBARD, AS YOU SAID, DEMOCRATIC WHO HAS FACED KAMALA HARRIS ON THE DEBATE STAGE BEFORE AND TOOK HER TASK ON HER RECORD AS A PROSECUTOR. THAT'S A LITTLE BIT OF INSIGHT INTO A POSSIBLE LINE OF ATTACK THAT TRUMP WILL EMPLOY. HE'S ALSO HEARING FROM MAC GATES. AND MAC GATES IS A CONSERVATIVE FIREBRAND. HE'S A BOMB THROWER. AND DONALD LIKES TO CHARACTERIZE HIMSELF AS A COUNTERPUNCHER ON THE STAGE. SO IT GIVES YOU A LITTLE BIT OF A WINDOW INTO HIS STRATEGY TOMORROW NIGHT. WELL, SELINA HARRIS FINALLY ADDED THIS LONG AWAITED ISSUES PAGE TO HER WEBSITE. >> WHY DID IT TAKE SO LONG? YEAH, LOOK HERE. I MEAN, IN THE BEGINNING WEEKS OF VICE PRESIDENT HARRIS ANNOUNCING HER CANDIDACY, SHE REALLY WANTED TO JUST RIDE ON THAT EUPHORIA, THAT WAVE OF EUPHORIA AND EXCITEMENT AROUND HER. AND HER TEAM CLEARLY DIDN'T WANT TO GET BOGGED DOWN INTO THE NITTY GRITTY POLICY DETAILS. BUT CLEARLY WHERE SHE STANDS AND HER ISSUES IS BECOMING A VULNERABILITY FOR HER. THAT LATEST "NEW YORK TIMES" SIENA POLL SHOWS THAT ABOUT ONE THIRD OF VOTERS SAY THEY WANT TO LEARN MORE ABOUT HER. THAT IS, OF COURSE, A VULNERABILITY DONALD TRUMP DOES NOT HAVE. AND MANY OF THOSE VOTERS ALSO SAY THAT THEY WANT TO UNDERSTAND MORE ABOUT WHERE SHE STANDS ON THE ISSUES, ESPECIALLY SINCE SHE HAS MODERATED HER POSITION QUITE SIGNIFICANTLY, SINCE WHEN SHE WAS RUNNING IN THE 2020 DEMOCRATIC PRIMARIES. NOW, HER WEBSITE DOES GO INTO MORE DETAIL ABOUT SOME OF THE ECONOMIC POLICY PROPOSALS THAT SHE'S ALREADY LAID OUT, INCLUDING AROUND LOWERING PRICES FOR AMERICANS, GOING AFTER CORPORATE GOUGING HER PLANS TO MAKE HOUSING MORE AFFORDABLE AMONG, A NUMBER OF OTHER ISSUES. AND THAT'S ALSO WHAT SHE WANTS TO ACCOMPLISH ON DEBATE STAGE IS TO MAKE CLEAR WHERE SHE STANDS NOW IN WANTING TO RUN AS A MORE MODERATE DEMOCRAT. >> ALL RIGHT, SELINA THERE AT THE WHITE HOUSE FOR US THERE IN PHILLY. SEE YOU SOON. THANKS, GUYS. THERE'S A LOT RIDING ON THIS DEBATE FOR BOTH CANDIDATES, AS WE ALL KNOW NOW AND NOW THERE'S THIS NEW POLL THAT'S ACTUALLY SHOWING THAT THE RACE IS NECK AND NECK. "NEW YORK TIMES" SIE COLLEGE POLL INDICATES THAT VOTERS WANT TO LEARN MORE ABOUT VICE PRESIDENT HARRIS AS WELL BEFORE CASTING THEIR BALLOT. OUR WASHINGTON BUREAU CHIEF AND POLITICAL DIRECTOR RICK KLEIN HAS THE DETAILS. >> US. RICK, YOU'RE A TIGHT RACE FOR PRESIDENT. SOME WAYS HAS GOTTEN EVEN TIGHTER IN THE LAST COUPLE OF DAYS GIVEN THE POLLS HAVE ROLLED IN. OUR FIVETHIRTYEIGHT POLLING AVERAGE NOW HAS HARRIS LEADING TRUMP BY LESS THAN THREE PERCENTAGE POINTS. FOR WHILE, IT SEEMED LIKE SHE HAD SOME MOMENTUM WAS STARTING TO PULL AWAY A BIT. THAT APPEARS TO HAVE STALLED OUT. AND IN THE BATTLEGROUND, WE'VE SETTLED INTO A VERY CLOSE RACE IN ALMOST ALL OF THOSE STATES. HARRIS NOW LEADING BUT NARROWLY IN FIVE OF THE SEVEN BATTLEGROUNDS RIGHT HERE IN PENNSYLVANIA, WHERE THE DEBATE WILL BE TOMORROW NIGHT. HARRIS' LEAD IS NOW LESS THAN A PERCENTAGE POINT. THAT'S BASICALLY A TOSS UP, AND THAT'S IN THE BIGGEST AND PROBABLY MOST IMPORTANT OF THE BATTLEGROUND STATES. AND IN TERMS OF PERCEPTIONS, WHAT HARRIS HAS TO DO TOMORROW NIGHT GETS REALLY WELL DEFINED BY THE POLLS. ALMOST A THIRD OF VOTERS OVERALL SAY FOR THE SITTING VICE PRESIDENT NEED TO LEARN MORE ABOUT HER AND HER POSITIONS TO DECIDE WHO TO VOTE FOR AND HOW TO VOTE. LESS THAN ONE IN TEN VOTERS, 9% SAY THE SAME ABOUT DONALD TRUMP. SO DONALD TRUMP GOES IN MUCH MORE IN TERMS OF HOW THEY'RE DEFINED. ALMOST HALF OF VOTERS SAY, THEY THINK KAMALA HARRIS IS TOO LIBERAL. LESS THAN A THIRD SAY THAT DONALD TRUMP IS TOO CONSERVATIVE. AT THE SAME TIME, A LARGE MAJORITY OF VOTERS SAY THEY WANT A BREAK FROM JOE BIDEN. HARRIS OF COURSE, JOE BIDEN'S VICE PRESIDENT. SO IT ALL LINES UP TO MAKE A SERIES OF CHALLENGES. SHE HAS TO DEFINE HERSELF. SHE HAS TO DEFINE HERSELF AS A MODERATE AND SHE HAS TO DEFINE HERSELF AS MORE DISTINCT FROM JOE BIDEN THAN MANY VOTERS CURRENTLY BELIEVE KYRA. >> ALL RIGHT, RICK, THANKS MUCH. AND I'LL SEE YOU SOON, TOO. SO MARKET ON YOUR CALENDAR BECAUSE IT'S ONE OF THE MOST HIGH STAKES PRESIDENTIAL DEBATES TO DATE. HAPPENING RIGHT HERE ON ABC NEWS LIVE, THE FIRST FACE OFF BETWEEN FORMER PRESIDENT TRUMP AND VICE PRESIDENT KAMALA HARRIS TOMORROW NIGHT, 9 P.M.. WE HEADED TO PHILLY TODAY, SO WE WILL SEE YOU THERE. MILLIONS OF YOU ALONG THE GULF COAST ARE ON ALERT NOW AS FRANCINE IS TURNING INTO A TROPICAL STORM AND IS ON ITS WAY TO BECOMING A HURRICANE THIS WEEK. THE NATIONAL HURRICANE CENTER FORECASTING THAT FOR US, FRANCINE IS JUST GOING TO KEEP GROWING BEFORE MAKING LANDFALL IN LOUISIANA. THEN ON THE WEST COAST, THE STATE OF EMERGENCY IS ALREADY IN EFFECT IN SAN BERNARDINO COUNTY BECAUSE OF A FAST MOVING FIRE. SCORCHING TEMPERATURES MAKING THE FIGHT THE LINE FIRE MORE DIFFICULT AS SAY AT LEAST 17,000 ACRES HAVE NOW BEEN BURNED. OUR METEOROLOGIST SMART THEODORE JOINS ME NOW. SO SMART. LET'S GO AND START WITH THE STORM ON THE GULF COAST, IF YOU DON'T MIND. TALK ABOUT WHAT WE CAN EXPECT AND WHERE IT'S HEADED. AUNT CARRIE. YEAH, LET'S DO IT. SO RIGHT NOW WE HAVE TROPICAL STORM FRANCINE, WHICH COULD BECOME A HURRICANE SOON AS TOMORROW, MAKING LANDFALL MORE LIKELY ON WEDNESDAY. THE CORE OF THE STORM RIGHT NOW IS HITTING 480 MILES SOUTH SOUTHWEST OF CAMERON, LOUISIANA, AS YOU SEE HERE. NOW, WHAT ANTICIPATING IS THAT IN THE COMING HOURS AND COMING DAYS THAT THIS STORM WILL CONTINUE TO DRIVE TOWARDS LOUISIANA. SO THE THE CONE OF UNCERTAINTY, THAT MEANS THE CENTER OF THE STORM COULD FALL ANYWHERE AS FAR WEST AS THE BORDER OF TEXAS AND LOUISIANA, AS FAR EAST AS NEW ORLEANS. NONETHELESS, IT IS LIKELY TO STRENGTHEN A CAT ONE BY THE TIME IT MAKES LANDFALL. >> SO HERE'S THE THE FORECAST IN TERMS OF TIMING. THIS IS LUNCHTIME ON TUESDAY. NOTICE WHERE THE CORE OF THE STORM IS, BUT ALSO NOTICE THE RAIN BANDS ARE THEY'RE ALREADY REACHING FAR INTO BEAUMONT, INTO HOUSTON, GALVESTON, LAKE CHARLES, NEW ORLEANS, GETTING WHIPPED BY RAIN FROM FRANCINE AS WE HEAD THROUGH AFTERNOON AND EVENING. THE CORE OF THE STORM GETS CLOSER AND CLOSER TO LOUISIANA. THIS PROJECTED MODEL HERE HAS IT DRIVING IN VERY CLOSE TO LAKE CHARLES AND CAMERON, THE CENTER, THE STORM THAT IS. AND THAT'S BY WEDNESDAY AFTERNOON. AND, YOU KNOW, WE'RE GOING TO BE EXPECTING NOT JUST THE HEAVY RAINFALL WITH THIS SYSTEM, BUT ALSO THE THREAT FOR LIFE THREATENING STORM SURGE. THAT'S SOMETHING TO BE VERY, VERY VIGILANT ABOUT. SIGNIFICANT FLASH FLOODING IN THE AREAS SHADED IN RED HERE. SO I-10 ACROSS THE ENTIRETY OF LOUISIANA, RIGHT ON THE SOUTHERN TIP OF MISSISSIPPI KYRA. >> ALL RIGHT SOMARA, APPRECIATE IT. THANKS SO MUCH. WELL, PRINCESS KATE SAYS THAT SHE DONE WITH CHEMO AND IS NOW CANCER FREE. THE PRINCESS OF WALES SHARING THE GOOD NEWS IN A HIGHLY PRODUCED VIDEO SHARED BY BUCKINGHAM PALACE TODAY. JUST SIX MONTHS AFTER OPENING UP ABOUT HER DIAGNOSIS. KATE SAYS HER FOCUS IS NOW STAYING CANCER FREE. WHILE LOOKING AHEAD TO HER NEW JOURNEY. ALTHOUGH I FINISHED CHEMOTHERAPY, MY PATH TO HEALING FULL RECOVERY IS LONG AND I MUST CONTINUE TO TAKE DAY AS IT COMES. I AM, HOWEVER, LOOKING FORWARD TO BEING BACK AT WORK AND UNDERTAKING A FEW MORE PUBLIC ENGAGEMENTS IN THE COMING MONTHS WHEN I CAN. >> DESPITE THAT'S GONE BEFORE I ENTER THIS NEW PHASE OF RECOVERY WITH A RENEWED SENSE OF HOPE AND APPRECIATION OF LIFE. >> LET'S BRING IN OUR FOREIGN CORRESPONDENT NOW OUT OF LONDON. SO, MAGGIE, WHAT MORE DO WE KNOW ABOUT KATE'S CONDITION? WELL, YOU KNOW, I THINK WHAT'S MOST STRIKING, WHAT WE'VE LEARNED TODAY IS JUST BEING ABLE TO HEAR FROM PRINCESS KATE IN HER OWN WORDS WITH THAT VIDEO IS REALLY EXTRAORDINARY. WE HAVEN'T REALLY SEEN ANYTHING LIKE IT FROM THE ROYAL FAMILY. SOMETHING THAT WAS SO PERSONAL ,SO INTIMATE. AND KATE REALLY GETS VULNERABLE. WE IT THERE HERSELF TALKING ABOUT, YOU KNOW, LOOKING AT LIFE IN A NEW HAVING A NEW PERSPECTIVE. AND OF COURSE, WE STILL DON'T KNOW ANY NEW ABOUT EXACTLY WHAT TYPE OF CANCER SHE HAD, WHAT STAGE IT WAS. HER TREATMENT PLAN WAS THAT THE PALACE HAS SAID SHE WISHES TO REMAIN PRIVATE, BUT SHE DID OPEN UP SAYING THAT SHE HAS FINISHED HER ROUND CHEMOTHERAPY, THAT HER FOCUS RIGHT NOW IS ON STAYING CANCER FREE. BUT SHE ALSO ACKNOWLEDGED IT'S A LONG ROAD TO RECOVERY. AND WHILE SHE'S DONE WITH THIS ROUND OF CHEMOTHERAPY, HER JOURNEY IS BY NO MEANS OVER . SHE'S GOING TO TAKE IT SLOW. SHE'S RELYING ON FAMILY. AND SHE TOOK THE TIME TO REALLY THANK THE PUBLIC FOR THEIR PRIVACY, FOR THEIR SUPPORT AND ALSO CARE. WHAT REALLY STUCK WITH ME IS THAT WHEN SHE ENDS THIS VIDEO, SHE MAKES A POINT TO SAY, STILL WITH EVERYONE ON THEIR CANCER JOURNEY. SHE UNDERSTANDS SO MANY PEOPLE GOING THROUGH EITHER THEIR OWN CANCER JOURNEY OR THEIR JOURNEY WITH OTHER, YOU KNOW, MEDICAL TRAGEDIES AS WELL. AND SHE'S MAKING THE POINT SHE GETS IT NOW. SHE'S BEEN THROUGH IT. HER FAMILY'S BEEN THROUGH IT, AND SHE'S GOING TO STAY SIDE BY SIDE WITH THEM KYRA. MAGGIE, GREAT TO SEE YOU. THANK YOU FOR THE UPDATE. ALL RIGHT. COMING UP, BIG RULING FROM THE JUDGE IN THE CASE OF THE IDAHO UNIVERSITY KILLINGS. PLUS, KENTUCKY RESIDENTS ON EDGE AS A HIGHWAY SHOOTER IS STILL ON THE LOOSE.

NONALCOHOLIC BARS ARE POPPING UP IN A GROWING NUMBER OF. THAT'S THE SPIRIT, AMERICA THIS MORNING AMERICA'S NUMBER ONE EARLY MORNING NEWS ON ABC NEWS. >> WHAT? ALL RIGHT. WE HAVE BREAKING NEWS TO BRING YOU RIGHT NOW. THE JUDGE OVERSEEING THE IDAHO COLLEGE CASE OF BRANKO BURGER HAS GRANTED A CHANGE OF VENUE, HIS UPCOMING TRIAL. THIS COMES AFTER THE DEFENSE SUCCESSFULLY ARGUED. IT WAS TOO GREAT OF A RISK TO PULL A JURY FROM THE AREA THAT THE KILLINGS OCCURRED IN 2020. KOHBERGER IS ACCUSED OF MURDERING FOUR UNIVERSITY OF IDAHO STUDENTS IN THEIR OFF CAMPUS HOME. OUR LEGAL CONTRIBUTOR AND TRIAL ATTORNEY JOINS ME NOW FOR MORE. >> SO, BRIAN, ARE YOU SURPRISED THAT THEY GOT VENUE CHANGE? >> NOT NOT REALLY. AFTER LISTENING TO THE ARGUMENTS AND LOOKING AT THE STANDARDS, I THOUGHT THIS WAS PRETTY POSSIBLE, ESPECIALLY WHEN I THEM OF THE FACT OF IDAHO MOVING ANOTHER MAJOR CASE JUST SOME MONTHS AGO AND TALKING ABOUT CHAD DAYBELL. THAT CASE WAS IN IDAHO AS WELL AND MOVED TO ADA COUNTY FROM WHERE IT WAS NOW. AND LISTENING TO THE ARGUMENTS AND THE DECISION AS WELL, JUST UNDERSTANDING THAT THE JUDGE IS SAYING YES. TO THE FACT THAT IT WAS REASONABLY LIKELY THAT THE A PRESUMPTION OF PREJUDICE IF THE CASE REMAINED IN THIS VENUE BASED ON ALL OF THE PUBLICITY. BUT HE ARGUED THAT THE AREA OF LAYTON COUNTY JUST ISN'T BIG ENOUGH, THAT LOCAL POLICE WERE TO COME INTO THE COURT TO HELP MONITOR THE CASE AS IT ON. AND OF COURSE, THAT'S NOT BIG ENOUGH FOR SUCH A MAJOR CASE. SO IT MADE SENSE TO MOVE IT. >> SO WHAT HAPPENS NEXT? WELL, WILL THE JUDGE REMAIN ON THE CASE? SO UNLIKELY THAT THE JUDGE WILL MADE IN THE CASE. WHAT HAPPENS NEXT IS THE JUDGE HAS ACTUALLY ORDERED THIS CASE TO GO TO THE STATE SUPREME COURT TO THEN DECIDE WHERE IT SHOULD GO WITHIN THE STATE. MORE LIKELY THAN NOT THE CASE WHEN IT GETS TRANSFERRED. WE HAVE THE SAME PROSECUTORS AND THE SAME DEFENSE ATTORNEYS ,OF COURSE. BUT WHEREVER IT GO AND PROBABLY GO TO A JUDGE IN THAT COUNTY. ALL RIGHT, BRIAN BUCKMIRE, GOOD TO SEE YOU. >> SO AN URGENT MANHUNT ON THE WAY RIGHT NOW IN KENTUCKY NOW STRETCHING INTO ITS THIRD DAY. POLICE ARE LOOKING FOR THE SUSPECT THAT THEY SAY SERIOUSLY INJURED AT LEAST FIVE DRIVERS ALONG A STRETCH OF INTERSTATE 75, JUST AN HOUR SOUTHEAST OF LEXINGTON. POLICE ARE ACTIVELY LOOKING FOR THIS MAN. HE IS IDENTIFIED 32-YEAR-OLD JOSEPH COUCH, WHO ALLEGEDLY HID IN A HEAVILY WOODED AREA NEAR THE RAMP OFF OF EXIT 49 AND THEN SHOT AS MANY AS 12 VEHICLES ON THE HIGHWAY. SEVERAL PEOPLE WERE WOUNDED BY THE GUNFIRE, BUT THANKFULLY NO FATALITIES. SO FAR, AUTHORITIES SAY THAT THEY'VE RECOVERED A VEHICLE ASSOCIATED WITH COUCH AND AN AR-15 ASSAULT STYLE RIFLE. LET'S BRING IN OUR ALEX PRESHA HE IS NEAR THE SCENE THERE IN LONDON, KENTUCKY, ALONG WITH OUR CONTRIBUTOR AND FORMER FBI AGENT BRAD GARRETT. SO, ALEX, LET'S TALK ABOUT JUST THE LATEST UPDATE. WHAT MORE DO WE KNOW FROM POLICE ABOUT THE SUSPECT AND JUST HOW ALL THIS UNFOLDED ? >> HEY, KYRA. SO WE WE GOT THIS WITHIN THE LAST HOUR. THIS IS THE ARREST WARRANT FOR 32-YEAR-OLD JOSEPH CAO, WHO IS EIGHT PAGES LONG AND DETAILS WHAT HE WILL BE CHARGED WITH. HE FACES FIRST DEGREE ASSAULT CHARGES AND ATTEMPTED MURDER CHARGES FOR ALL OF THOSE VICTIMS THAT WERE INJURED IN SATURDAY'S. NOW, YOU MENTIONED ON THAT ON SATURDAY, WHENEVER HE WAS SHOOTING AT THESE CARS, AT LEAST 12 THAT WE KNOW OF THAT WERE HIT. THAT IS ACCORDING TO LAW ENFORCEMENT. NOW, NUMBER HAS HAS HAS CHANGED OVER THE LAST 48 HOURS. AND THAT'S FRANKLY BECAUSE IT'S A HIGHWAY IN MANY. THESE PEOPLE DIDN'T REALIZE THAT THEIR VEHICLE HAD BEEN STRUCK BY GUNFIRE. THEY GOT TO WHERE THEY WERE. WE TALKED TO AT LEAST ONE WOMAN WHO WAS IN TENNESSEE BEFORE SHE REALIZED THAT A BULLET HAD EITHER HIT OR RICOCHETED OFF OF CAR. AND SO THAT KIND OF GIVES YOU A SENSE AS TO JUST HOW EXPANSIVE THIS INVESTIGATION IS AND ALSO JUST HOW HARD IT IS FOR MANY OF THESE INVESTIGATORS AND IN LAW ENFORCEMENT TO FIND DETAILS ABOUT THIS CASE. >> SO, BRAD, WE'RE ON THE THIRD DAY OF THIS SEARCH NOW. SEVERAL AGENCIES ARE INVOLVED, INCLUDING THE FBI. HOW DIFFICULT DO YOU THINK THIS IS GOING TO BE? I MEAN, WE'VE COVERED SEARCHES LIKE THIS A NUMBER OF TIMES, AND THEY CAN FIND THEM WITHIN HOURS. >> SOMETIMES IT TAKES A COUPLE OF MONTHS. >> SO, YOU KNOW, THE REAL QUESTION, KYRA, IS, IS THIS PARTICULAR SUSPECT IN THE SEARCH? YOU KNOW, I'M SORT OF UNCLEAR ABOUT THE TIMEFRAME OF THE AMOUNT OF LEAD TIME HE HAD. IN OTHER WORDS, THE SHOOTING, I THINK, OCCURRED AFTERNOON. I THINK BY THE TIME THE POLICE GOT THERE, IT WAS ALMOST DARK. >> SO HE HAD SOME LEAD TIME. HE LEFT RIGHT AFTER THE SHOOTING. AND SO THE QUESTION IS BECAUSE HE LEFT HIS CAR BEHIND, DID HE HAVE OTHER AUTOMOBILE TRANSPORTATION PARKED SOMEPLACE ELSE? DID HE IN THIS AREA THAT THEY'RE SEARCHING? APPARENTLY, ACCORDING TO LAW ENFORCEMENT THERE? THERE'S A LOT OF CAVES AND TUNNELS, AND IT'S SO DENSELY POPULATED FROM A WOODED STANDPOINT AND UNDERGROWTH STANDPOINT, APPARENTLY EXTREMELY RURAL. >> I'VE DONE SEARCHES LIKE THAT. YOU HAVE TO SLOW AND GO BECAUSE YOU DON'T KNOW WHAT YOU'RE WALKING INTO. SO YOU HAVE TO BE REALLY CAREFUL AS YOU MOVE FORWARD. I DON'T KNOW IF THEY KNOW IF HE'S ARMED OR. SO TO ANSWER YOUR QUESTION, IT IT COULD HAPPEN WITHIN A REASONABLE AMOUNT OF TIME OR NOT. >> I MEAN, IF THERE'S AN EXTENSIVE CAVE AND TUNNEL SYSTEM AROUND THERE, YOU'RE GOING TO HAVE TO GET AN EXPERT THAT KNOWS THOSE THAT WAS THERE TO HELP YOU MAYBE GUIDE WHERE THEY GO AND WHERE HE HE MIGHT POTENTIALLY BE. ALL RIGHT. SO, ALEX, MULTIPLE SCHOOL DISTRICTS IN THE REGION NOW ARE CLOSED WHILE THIS MANHUNT CONTINUES. WHAT ELSE IS THE COMMUNITY DOING JUST TO SORT OF DEAL WITH THIS AND STAY VIGILANT? >> WELL, TO YOUR POINT AND GOING TODAY, WE KNEW THAT LAUREL COUNTY, WHICH IS WHERE THIS INCIDENT HAPPENED AT THAT SCHOOL, WAS GOING TO BE CLOSING. BUT WE'VE HEARD THAT AT LEAST NINE DIFFERENT SCHOOL DISTRICTS AROUND THIS REGION HAVE HAVE CLOSED, JUST OUT OF ADD OUT OF PRECAUTION. LISTEN. THEY'VE URGED THE TO REMAIN VIGILANT. AND CERTAINLY, YOU KNOW, THERE IS A HEIGHTENED SENSE OF OF OF TENSENESS HERE AS AS PEOPLE REALIZE THAT, YES, THEIR LAW ENFORCEMENT OPTIMISTIC THAT THEY HAVE THIS SUSPECT CONTAINED TO A PARTICULAR AREA. BUT THERE'S THERE'S THERE'S A REALIZATION THAT IT IS POSSIBLE THAT HE MAY HAVE SLIPPED OUT. AND IF HE'S IN THIS COMMUNITY, PEOPLE CERTAINLY ARE ON GUARD FOR THAT. >> WELL, WE'LL STAY ON THE STORY FOR SURE. ALEX, BRAD, THANK YOU BOTH. SOME MORE QUESTIONS ARE SWIRLING OUT OF GEORGIA NOW AS TO WHETHER THE APALACHEE HIGH SCHOOL SHOOTING COULD HAVE BEEN AVOIDED. ACTIONS OF ACCUSED GUNMAN COLT GRAY IS NOW TELLING ABC NEWS IT WAS HIS OWN MOTHER WHO CALLED HER SON'S SCHOOL TO ACTUALLY WARN OF AN EXTREME EMERGENCY JUST 30 MINUTES BEFORE POLICE SAY THE 14 YEAR OLD GUNNED DOWN TWO CLASSMATES AND TWO TEACHERS. BUT THE SHERIFF'S OFFICE IS SHUTTING DOWN. THOSE ALLEGATIONS SAYING THAT THE SCHOOL DISTRICT CLAIMS THAT THEY HAD RECORD OF EVEN BEING NOTIFIED. OUR FAITH ABUBEY IS THERE. >> THE GROUND IN GEORGIA STILL WITH THE LATEST DEVELOPMENTS, FAITH. >> NEW QUESTIONS ABOUT WHETHER THERE WERE MISSED SIGNS AHEAD OF A GEORGIA SCHOOL SHOOTING THAT KILLED FOUR PEOPLE AND INJURED NINE OTHERS. >> THE SCHOOL IS SUPPOSED TO BE A SAFE PLACE FOR KIDS. >> TOMORROW, THE ACCUSED GUNMAN IS TELLING ABC ROUGHLY 30 MINUTES BEFORE THE SHOOTING AT APALACHEE HIGH SCHOOL IN WINDER COURT, GRAY'S MOTHER CALLED A SCHOOL COUNSELOR TO WARN OF AN EXTREME EMERGENCY. HIS MOTHER, MARCY, SPEAKING TO ABC NEWS OVERNIGHT, SAYING SHE TRIED TO HIM THE HELP HE NEEDED. >> I JUST WITH THE AUNT TELLING "THE WASHINGTON POST" THAT DURING THE TEN MINUTE CONVERSATION, A SCHOOL COUNSELOR TOLD MARCI GRAY THAT HER SON HAD SPOKEN ABOUT A SCHOOL SHOOTING THE SAME MORNING. CLASSMATE LELA SCIARRA TELLING ABC NEWS THAT A SCHOOL ADMINISTRATOR, A BACKPACK OF A STUDENT WITH A SIMILAR NAME. A LITTLE BIT LATER HE CAME BACK IN WITH HIS BAG AND SAID THAT THEY WEREN'T LOOKING FOR HIM. >> THEY WERE LOOKING FOR COAT. MOMENTS LATER, THE ACCUSED TEENAGER ALLEGEDLY OPENED FIRE OUTSIDE THE CLASSROOM DOOR. >> AND KIARA, THE ALLEGED SHOOTER AND HIS FATHER, ARE BOTH FACING MULTIPLE FELONY CHARGES RELATED TO THIS MASS SHOOTING. THEY HAVE NOT ENTERED A PLEA IN COURT. IN THE MEANTIME, THOUGH, SCHOOL DISTRICT OFFICIALS ARE NOT COMMENTING ON THE FAMILY'S ALLEGATIONS THAT THEY WERE WARNED. TELLS ME IT'S MISINFORMN KYRA. WOW.

AN URGENT MANHUNT UNDERWAY AFTER A SHOOTING ON A KENTUCKY HIGHWAY WHERE THE INVESTIGATION STANDS AT THIS HOUR. PLUS, THE PHILLY FACE OFF AND IT'S HAPPENING HERE ON ABC NEWS LIVE. THE FIRST DEBATE BETWEEN VICE PRESIDENT HARRIS AND FORMER PRESIDENT DONALD TRUMP ONLY ONE DAY AWAY. FULL COVERAGE FROM THE CITY OF BROTHERLY LOVE ALL DAY LONG . AND SHE HAD THE HAT, THE HITS AND THE HOLD THEM. BUT THIS AIN'T TEXAS. THIS IS THE CMAS. AND BEYONCE GOT SNUBBED, SNUFFED OUT WHY COUNTRY MUSIC'S BIGGEST AWARDS SHOW LEFT OUT OF ITS RODEO. AND GOOD AFTERNOON, EVERYONE. I'M KYRA PHILLIPS. OUR TOP STORY THIS HOUR, COUNTING DOWN THE HOURS THEY HAVE NEVER MET IN PERSON BUT WILL GET TO KNOW EACH OTHER VERY QUICKLY. VICE PRESIDENT KAMALA HARRIS AND FORMER PRESIDENT DONALD TRUMP SET TO FACE OFF FOR THE VERY FIRST TIME IN TOMORROW'S PRESIDENTIAL DEBATE RIGHT HERE ON, ABC NEWS LIVE. WE ARE TOLD THAT TRUMP IS HOLDING INFORMALLY INFORMAL POLICY SESSIONS WITH A SMALL TEAM OF HIS ADVISERS, WHILE HARRIS SAYS SHE'S READY TO GO AFTER A WEEKEND OF INTENSE DEBATE PRACTICE WITH HER TEAM SAYING IN A RADIO INTERVIEW SHE'S EVEN PREPARING FOR TRUMP'S LIES. >> TAKE A LISTEN. IT NOT FAIR FOR HIM IN TERMS OF HOW HE WOULD GO AND AND WE SHOULD BE PREPARED FOR THAT. WE SHOULD BE PREPARED FOR THE FACT THAT HE IS NOT BURDENED BY TELLING THE TRUTH. AND WE SHOULD BE PREPARED FOR THE FACT THAT HE IS GOING TO SPEAK A LOT OF UNTRUTHS. >> WITH ONLY 50 SIX DAYS UNTIL ELECTION DAY, WE ARE STARTING WITH OUR JAY O'BRIEN, WHO'S THERE IN PHILADELPHIA AT THE DEBATE. SO, JAY, LET'S JUST TALK ABOUT HOW IMPORTANT THIS DEBATE FOR BOTH CANDIDATES. I MEAN, THIS RACE IS NECK AND NECK. >> I MEAN, THE STAKES COULD NOT BE HIGHER, KYRA. AND WE'VE SEEN RECENT POLLING THAT SHOWS THE RACE NECK AND NECK. WE'VE SEEN A NEW NEW YORK IN A COLLEGE POLL, FOR INSTANCE, THAT HAS THE RACE PRETTY MUCH VIRTUALLY. WE'VE SEEN ABC NEWS POLLING THAT HAS HARRIS WITH A SLIGHT ADVANTAGE OVER REGISTERED VOTERS, BUT STILL IT'S VERY TIGHT. HER LEAD, EVEN IF IT EXISTS, SOME POLLING. ONE OF THE THINGS I CAN TELL YOU IS THAT THINK ABOUT THE LAST TIME THERE WAS A DEBATE IN THIS PRESIDENTIAL CYCLE. THERE WERE TWO DIFFERENT CANDIDATES. THAT DEBATE COMPLETELY REWROTE THE STORY OF THIS RACE. AND SO THIS DEBATE, THE STAKES COULD NOT BE HIGHER AS DONALD TRUMP AND KAMALA HARRIS FACE OFF ON THAT DEBATE STAGE. REMEMBER, THOSE TWO HAVE NEVER EVEN MET IN PERSON. THEY'VE NEVER EVEN BEEN IN THE SAME ROOM TOGETHER. AND SO WHEN THEY FACE OFF ON THAT DEBATE IN CLOSE QUARTERS, BY THE WAY, I CAN TELL YOU I SAW THAT STAGE. THEY RELATIVELY CLOSE TOGETHER. IT WILL BE THE FIRST TIME THEY'VE EVEN MET. OF COURSE, THEY'LL GO HEAD TO HEAD. BOTH OF THEM CAN BOTH OF THEM CONSIDER THEMSELVES TO BE PUNCHERS AND COUNTER PUNCHERS OR DEBATE STAGE SO HOW THEIR STYLES NASH AND HOW THEY FRANKLY CLASH IS SOMETHING THAT REMAINS TO BE SEEN. YOU KNOW, I WONDER, HOW DO YOU THINK I DON'T KNOW. I'M JUST THROWING THIS OUT THERE. JAY THEY'VE NEVER MET IN PERSON THIS IS THE FIRST TIME THEY'RE ACTUALLY GOING TO BE NEXT TO EACH LOOKING AT EACH OTHER. IT'LL BE INTERESTING TO SEE IF THEY EVEN SHAKE HANDS BEFORE THEY START. I WONDER IF THAT WILL MAKE THIS MORE DIFFICULT. THIS WILL MAKE IT EASIER. I DON'T KNOW. WHAT ARE WHAT ARE YOU LEARNING ABOUT OTHER WAYS THAT THEY'RE PREPARING NOT ONLY FOR SUCH A HIGH STAKES DEBATE, BUT THEY'VE NEVER, EVER BEEN CLOSE TO EACH OTHER. >> AND I THINK ONE OF THE QUESTIONS HANGING OVER THIS DEBATE TO YOUR IS HOW MUCH DO THEY INTERACT? DO THEY SHAKE HANDS? REMEMBER, TRUMP AND BIDEN DIDN'T SHAKE HANDS BEFORE THAT DEBATE A FEW MONTHS BACK THAT REALLY PRECIPITATED THE PATH THAT THIS RACE TURNED ON TO WITH BIDEN DROPPING HARRIS BECOMING THE DEMOCRATIC NOMINEE. BUT ALSO, HOW MUCH DO THEY INVOKE OTHER. IT LOOKS LIKE IF YOU READ THE TEA LEAVES OF THEIR DEBATE PREP ORATION, THAT THEY ARE PREPARING TO TALK ABOUT ONE ANOTHER AND TO EVOKE EACH OTHER AND TO REALLY SPEAK PERSON PERSON WITH ONE ANOTHER. THINK ABOUT IT THIS WAY. DONALD TRUMP HAS GOT TULSI IN HIS INFORMAL DEBATE PREPARATION SESSIONS. THAT'S NOTABLE BECAUSE TULSI GABBARD FACED OFF AGAINST KAMALA HARRIS IN THOSE DEMOCRATIC PRIMARY DEBATES IN 2019. AND SHE WAS ONE OF THE THOSE CANDIDATES WHO REALLY DELIVERED ONE OF THE STRONGEST LINES OF ATTACK AGAINST HARRIS, CRITICIZING HER RECORD AS A PROSECUTOR IN SAN. THAT'S ONE OF THE REASONS WHY SHE'S INSIDE THOSE TRUMP DEBATE PREPARATIONS. KAMALA HARRIS IS DOING MOCK DEBATES WITH SOMEONE WHO WAS PLAYING DONALD TRUMP A TYPICAL STRATEGY. SO THEY ARE GEARING UP TO TALK TO ANOTHER TO BRING THIS TO EACH OTHER DIRECTLY. AND THE QUESTION BECOMES, HOW FIERY DOES IT GET? YEAH, THAT'S SUCH A GREAT WAY TO TO IT ALL TOGETHER. J AND THEN OVER THE WEEKEND, TRUMP AGAIN THROWING OUT THESE THREATS ABOUT PRISON SENTENCES FOR HIS POLITICAL RIVALS WHILE REPEATING HIS BASELESS ELECTION CLAIMS. I MEAN, JUST GIVEN THE INFAMOUS MOMENT ON SIX AND THE INSURRECTION THAT WE WITNESSED, SHOULD WE BE WORRIED HERE WHEN HE STARTS TALKING LIKE THAT, WHO DONALD TRUMP HAS CHARACTERIZED THIS RACE AS A RACE OF RETRIBUTION? IT'S BEEN ONE OF THE PHRASES HE'S USED REPEATEDLY AND THEN HE'S KIND OF WAFFLED BACK AND FORTH AS TO WHAT RETRIBUTION REALLY MEANS. AT SOME POINT, HE SAID RETRIBUTION AGAINST HIS ENEMIES. AND THEN OTHER POINTS, HE SAID RETRIBUTION IS JUST GOVERNING WELL. AND SO EXACTLY WHAT THAT THEME LOOKS LIKE IN A SECOND TRUMP PRESIDENCY IS VERY MUCH UNCLEAR. BUT I CAN TELL YOU ALSO UNVEILS ONE OF THE KEY QUESTIONS FACING DONALD TRUMP ON THIS DEBATE STAGE TOMORROW NIGHT, WHICH IS WHICH DONALD TRUMP WALKS ON TO THAT STAGE. IS IT THE DONALD TRUMP THAT IS ON MESSAGE THAT IS TALKING POLICY OR IS IT THE DONALD TRUMP THAT IS TALKING ABOUT RETRIBUTION THAT IS REPEATING FALSEHOODS ABOUT THE 2020 ELECTION AND TALKING HIS BASE VOTERS RATHER THAN THOSE INDEPENDENT AND MODERATE VOTERS THAT HE'S GOT TO WIN IN KEY STATES LIKE RIGHT HERE IN PENNSYLVANIA TO WIN THE WHITE HOUSE AGAIN. ALL RIGHT, JOE, APPRECIATE YOU. WE'VE GOT BREAKING NEWS RIGHT NOW. THE JUSTICE DEPARTMENT CHARGING TWO PEOPLE IN CALIFORNIA SAYING THAT THEY WERE LEADING A WIDESPREAD BUSINESS GROUP THAT WANTED TO IGNITE A RACE WAR HERE IN THE UNITED STATES. OUR ABC NEWS JUSTICE REPORTER CHECKED TODAY, HAS THE LATEST FOR US. >> JACK, WHAT DO WE KNOW? THIS IS AN UGLY CASE, KYRA. ARE THESE TWO INDIVIDUALS OR A WOMAN NAMED DALLAS AARON HUMBER AND HER CODEFENDANT MATTHEW ROBERT ALLISON? THEY'VE BOTH BEEN CHARGED. THEY WERE OPERATING THEIR GROUP ON TELEGRAM IS AN ENCRYPTED MESSAGING APP THAT'S BEEN IN THE NEWS LATELY. AS YOU. THE CEO OF TELEGRAM WAS RECENTLY ARRESTED IN FRANCE, BUT WERE OPERATING THIS GROUP FOR YEARS ON TELEGRAM AND IT WAS REALLY PROMOTING A RACE WAR. AND THEY WERE ENCOURAGING PEOPLE, ENCOURAGING PEOPLE TO COMMIT LONE WOLF ATTACKS WHEREVER THEY WERE. AND SOME OF THE THE ATTACKS THAT THEY'RE PROMOTING EXTENDED INTERNATIONALLY AS WELL. AND THEY WANTED PEOPLE TO ATTACK FEDERAL OFFICIALS HERE IN THE STATES, INCLUDING A UNITED STATES SENATOR, THAT THEY TARGETED A UNITED STATES ATTORNEY, A FEDERAL JUDGE. THEY ACTUALLY PRODUCED AND POSTED TARGET LIST IN ADDITION TO ALL KINDS OF OTHER PUBLICATIONS WITH INSTRUCTIONS ON HOW TO COMMIT BOMBINGS, HOW TO COMMIT OTHER ACTS OF TERROR, OTHER ACTS OF VIOLENCE, AND ATTACKS ON THE POWER AND OTHER INFRASTRUCTURE AND KEY GOVERNMENT TARGETS. SO THEY'VE BEEN PUSHING THEIR ADHERENTS AND PEOPLE FOLLOW THEM TO COMMIT THESE ATTACKS SO THAT THEY COULD BECOME SAINTS IN THEIR GROUP AND BECOME INFAMOUS, EVEN IN THEIR DEATH, THAT THEY WOULD COMMIT THESE ATTACKS AND THEIR REPUTATIONS WOULD LIVE ON AS PEOPLE WHO TRIED TO ACCELERATE A RACE WAR AND TO HAVE SORT OF A RESET OF SOCIETY AND THE DESTRUCTION REALLY, OF SOCIETY AS WE IT. >> SO ALSO, I GUESS THESE SUSPECTS ALLEGEDLY WANTED BRING ABOUT A WHITE ETHNO STATE AND TOOK CREDIT FOR A TEEN KILLING TWO PEOPLE AT AN LGBTQ BAR IN SLOVAKIA. HOW GLOBAL WAS THIS GOAL OF THEIRS? >> THAT'S RIGHT. AND SO THERE HAVE BEEN SEVERAL WORLD THAT ARE LINKED TO THEIR TELEGRAM PAGE THAT THEY CALLED TERROR. GRAHAM AND SOME OF THESE PEOPLE WHO COMMITTED ACTUAL ATTACKS IN THE REAL WORLD CITED THEM AS THEIR INSPIRATION. ONE ATTACK, AS YOU MENTIONED, IN SLOVAKIA, KILLED TWO PEOPLE OUTSIDE A BAR, AN LGBTQ BAR IN SLOVAKIA IN BRATISLAVA. ANOTHER NEW JERSEY TEEN WAS ARRESTED THIS SUMMER FOR PLOTTING TO ATTACK A POWER GRID IN NEW JERSEY. SEPARATELY, A SEPARATE IN TURKEY, WHERE AN ADHERENT STABBED SEVERAL PEOPLE, FIVE PEOPLE OUTSIDE OF A MOSQUE IN TURKEY. THAT INDIVIDUAL THEY WOULD NOT REGARD AS A BECAUSE THEY SAID HE'S NOT WHITE, BUT THEY CELEBRATED HIS ATTACK AND THEY HAD BEEN CALLING FOR MORE LIKE IT. >> ALL RIGHT. JACK, APPRECIATE THE UPDATE, BRINGING US THE BREAKING NEWS. WE'RE ALSO LEARNING MORE ABOUT WHAT MAY HAVE LED UP TO THIS MASS SHOOTING ON A KENTUCKY HIGHWAY. THE SEARCH FOR THE SUSPECT STRETCHING INTO ITS THIRD DAY. POLICE SAY THE SHOOTER SERIOUSLY INJURED AT LEAST FIVE DRIVERS ALONG A STRETCH OF I-75 JUST AN HOUR SOUTHEAST OF LEXINGTON. POLICE ARE ACTIVELY LOOKING FOR THIS. HE'S SAID TO BE 32-YEAR-OLD JOSEPH COUCH, WHO ALLEGEDLY IN A HEAVILY WOODED AREA NEAR THE RAMP OFF OF EXIT 49 AND THEN SHOT AS MANY AS 12 VEHICLES THERE ON THE HIGHWAY. POLICE SAY THE SUSPECT WAS INVOLVED IN TWO ALTERCATIONS AND PURCHASED A WEAPON ON THE DAY OF THE SHOOTING. POLICE SAY THEY'VE NOW RECOVERED A CAR ASSOCIATED WITH COUCH IN ADDITION TO AN AR-15 ASSAULT STYLE RIFLE. OUR ALEX PRESHA IS NEAR THE SCENE THERE IN LONDON, KENTUCKY. ALSO, OUR CONTRIBUTOR AND FORMER FBI AGENT BRAD GARRETT JOINS US. SO, ALEX, POLICE JUST ISSUED THIS ARREST WARRANT FOR COUCH. WHAT IS HE FACING AND DO THEY BELIEVE THEY MAY KNOW WHERE HE IS, AT LEAST AN AREA? >> HEY, KYRA. OKAY. SO WE JUST GOT THAT ARREST WARRANT. ACTUALLY, I'M HOLDING A COPY OF IT HERE. AND IT LISTS THE CHARGES THAT COUCH WILL FACE. HE FACES FIRST DEGREE ASSAULT AND ATTEMPTED MURDER FOR ALL FIVE OF THOSE INDIVIDUALS INJURED IN THIS. AND WE ALSO ARE GETTING SOME DETAILS ABOUT THIS. BUT WE'RE TALKING THE VICTIMS. ONE IS REBECCA, POOR NORMAN, LIBERIA, RENEE WALKER, JANET BOOTH AND ERIC TALLEY. SOMETHING ELSE. THE AFFIDAVIT ATTACHED TO THIS WARRANT IS IS IS DETAILING IS A LITTLE BIT OF A TOCK AS TO HOW THIS UNFOLDED. WE LEARNED FROM LAW ENFORCEMENT THAT IT STARTED AS A DOMESTIC OR A DOMESTIC SITUATION EARLIER ON IN THE MORNING, THAT COUCH ALLEGEDLY WENT TO A GUN STORE SATURDAY, BOUGHT THAT AR 15 AND ABOUT 1000 ROUNDS OF OF AMMO IT GOT INTO A LITTLE BIT OF A ROAD RAGE INCIDENT ON I-75, INVESTIGATORS BELIEVE. AND IT'S THAT AT THAT POINT THAT HE FOUND A PURSE SOMEWHERE IN THE NEARBY WOODS AND, THEN STARTED CARRYING OUT THIS HEINOUS ACT. WE ALSO LEARNED THAT ENFORCEMENT WAS ACTUALLY TIPPED OFF BY A WOMAN NAMED SARA WHO HAD RECEIVED SOME DISTURBING TEXTS FROM COUCH AROUND 5:00, WHICH IS ABOUT 30 MINUTES BEFORE THIS GUNFIRE ERUPTED. A COUCH ALLEGEDLY TELLING HER THAT HE WAS GOING TO KILL, QUOTE, A LOT OF PEOPLE. WELL, AT LEAST TRY. AND IN ANOTHER MESSAGE, HE SAID THAT I WILL KILL MYSELF AFTERWARDS KYRA. WOW. WELL, BRAD, IF THE AGENCIES INVOLVED IN THIS MANHUNT CAN'T BE CERTAIN COUCH IS STILL IN THE AREA, YOU KNOW, WHAT'S NEXT? WHAT'S THE NEXT MOVE? >> WELL, IT IS TO DETERMINE THOROUGHLY CLEARED OUT THE IMMEDIATE AREA AROUND WITH THE WEAPON IN THIS CAR WAS FOUND. IF IT'S TRUE THAT THIS THERE IS A LOT OF CAVES AND TUNNEL SYSTEMS. COULD HE BE IN ONE OF THOSE? WHAT'S INTERESTING IS TO ME THAT IF HE LEFT THE CAR AND A WEAPON BEHIND, CERTAINLY SUGGESTING HE DOESN'T REALLY CARE WHAT HAPPENS FROM THIS POINT FORWARD, BECAUSE THAT'S A LOT OF EVIDENCE TO POTENTIALLY LEAVE. >> THERE'S A THERE'S A LINE IN WHAT ALEX JUST READ ABOUT HIM MAYBE TAKING HIS OWN LIFE. >> I DISCOUNT THAT. AND IF THAT'S TRUE, IT COULD EVEN MAYBE TAKE LONGER TO FIND HIM BASED ON THE TERRAIN AND TUNNEL AND CAVE SYSTEMS THAT THEY'RE WORKING IN. SO THAT MAY RESULT IN LENGTHY SEARCHES TO EVENTUALLY, YOU KNOW, FIND HIS BODY. NOW HE MAY HAVE TO SAID ALSO HE CAN CLEARLY STILL BE ON THE RUN HIDING IN ONE OF THESE CAVES OR TUNNELS OR DID HE GET OUTSIDE THE SEARCH PERIMETER AND HAS MOVED ON. SO IT LOOKS LIKE EVERYTHING'S PLAY HERE. BUT THE IDEA THAT YOU MAY FIND QUICKLY, YOU KNOW, REMAINS TO BE SEEN. >> ALL RIGHT, BRAD, ALEX, THANKS. WE'LL STAY ON THE STORY AND OF COURSE, TRACKING THIS SUSPECT. WE ALSO HAVE BREAKING NEWS TO TELL YOU ABOUT, THE JUDGE OVERSEEING THE IDAHO COLLEGE CASE. BRIAN KOHBERGER HAS GRANTED A CHANGE OF VENUE FOR HIS UPCOMING TRIAL AFTER THE DEFENSE SUCCESSFULLY ARGUED THAT IT WAS TOO GREAT OF A RISK TO PULL A JURY FROM THE THAT THE KILLINGS ACTUALLY OCCURRED IN COURT. WALKER IS ACCUSED OF MURDERING UNIVERSITY STUDENTS IN THEIR OFF CAMPUS HOUSE BACK NOVEMBER OF 2022. OUR LEGAL CONTRIBUTOR AND TRIAL ATTORNEY BRIAN BUCKMIRE JOINS ME ONCE AGAIN FOR MORE. SO, BRIAN, LET'S TALK ABOUT THE SIGNIFICANCE OF THIS VENUE CHANGE. >> IT PROBABLY HAD TO HAPPEN, DIDN'T IT? >> YEAH, IT IS SIGNIFICANT IN THE SENSE THAT FOR MUCH OF THAT COMMUNITY, WHO WAS AFFECTED BY THIS CASE AND THE FAMILIES, THE VICTIMS FAMILIES ARE WITHOUT TO TRANSPORT TO A NEW VENUE. BUT IT'S ALSO AFFECTS JURY POOL THAT'S GOING TO BE COMING IN TO THIS CASE. I DON'T THINK GOING TO BE THE GREATEST JURY POOL THE DEFENSE IS HOPING FOR. HOPEFULLY LESS BIAS, LESS SATURATED WITH MEDIA TO FIND THAT TRULY IMPARTIAL AND FAIR JURY FOR THIS DEFENDANT. >> AND WHAT HAPPENS NEXT? I MEAN, DO YOU THINK THE JUDGE WILL REMAIN ON THE CASE AFTER? >> ALL OF THIS? SO, INTERESTINGLY ENOUGH, KAYNA WHITWORTH OR NOT, KIND OF GOING BACK AND FORTH ON THIS DECISION THAT THE JUDGE GAVE AND NOW ACCORDING TO IDAHO, THE JUDGE COULD HAVE SIGNALED THAT HE WAS INTERESTED IN KEEPING THE CASE AND THEN IT WOULD JUST SIMPLY GO TO THE STATE SUPREME COURT FOR THEM TO PICK THE VENUE. BUT THERE'S NO INDICATION IN THIS DECISION THAT THE JUDGE WANTS TO KEEP CASE ACTUALLY IN THE FINAL LINES OF THE DECISION. THE JUDGE SAYS, I'M GIVING THIS UP TO THE SUPREME COURT OF IDAHO SO THAT THEY CAN DECIDE WHO IS THE ON THIS CASE AND THE PROPER VENUE. SO IT LOOKS LIKE THAT'S ALREADY BEEN. >> ALL RIGHT, BRIAN BUCKMIRE, STAY TUNED. >> COMING UP, PRINCESS KATE SAYS DONE WITH CHEMO AND SHE'S CONTINUING TO FIGHT HER CANCER WHENEVER NEWS BREAKS WE ARE HERE IN ISRAEL, A NATION AT WAR.

THE ABC NEWS PRESIDENTIAL DEBATE, MODERATED BY DAVID MUIR AND LINSEY DAVIS NIGHT LIVE ON ABC AND STREAMING ON ABC NEWS. HULU AND DISNEY PLUS THE ABC NEWS. PRESIDENTIAL. >> WELL, PRINCESS KATE SAYS THAT SHE IS DONE CHEMO AND IS CONTINUING HER FIGHT AGAINST CANCER. THE PRINCESS OF WALES SHARED THE GOOD NEWS IN A HIGHLY PRODUCED VIDEO AS YOU SEE HERE SHARED BY BUCKINGHAM PALACE TODAY. IT WAS MADE SIX MONTHS AFTER OPENING UP ABOUT HER DIAGNOSIS. KATE SAID THAT HER FOCUS NOW IS JUST STAYING CANCER FREE AND TRYING TO STAY HOPEFUL. >> EVERYONE'S KINDNESS AND EMPATHY AND COMPASSION HAS BEEN TRULY HUMBLING TO ALL THOSE WHO CONTINUE BATTLING CANCER JOURNEY. I REMAIN WITH YOU SIDE BY, SIDE, HAND IN, HAND, OUT OF DARKNESS CAN COME LIGHT. SO LET THAT LIGHT SHINE FOR FREE IN OUR FOREIGN CORRESPONDENT MAGGIE RULLI THERE IN WHAT'S WHAT STICKS OUT TO YOU ABOUT THIS MESSAGE. I JUST I HAVE TO BE HONEST HERE. IT'S A LITTLE ODD, MAGGIE. I MEAN, YOU SEE IT AND YOU WATCH IT AND, YOU LISTEN TO IT AND IT JUST I DON'T KNOW, I GUESS THE BEST WAY TO SAY IS IT'S HIGHLY PRODUCED IN A WAY. IT'S SORT OF STRANGE. >> WELL, I THINK WHAT'S SO INTERESTING, KYRA, THE DIFFERENCE BETWEEN HOW THE ROYAL FAMILY NORMALLY SPEAKS ABOUT THESE ISSUES IN THIS VIDEO. AND I THINK YOU MENTIONED THAT WORD HIGHLY PRODUCED, THAT'S WHAT STRUCK AT FIRST. YOU KNOW, I THINK WE WERE EXPECTING MAYBE ANOTHER VIDEO OF KATE SITTING THERE TALKING ABOUT ALL THAT SHE'S BEEN GOING THROUGH. >> AND INSTEAD WE GET THIS VERY PRODUCED, VERY INTIMATE VIDEO OF, THE FAMILY WITH DIFFERENT EDITING EFFECTS THAT THEY'VE PUT ON THERE. I WHAT'S STRIKING IS, AGAIN, THIS IS NOT SOMETHING WE'VE EVER SEEN FROM THE ROYAL FAMILY BEFORE. I THINK WE SHOULD EMPHASIZE THAT POINT. THIS IS RARE. THIS IS AN INTIMATE LOOK INSIDE LIVES OF A ROYAL FAMILY. THEY JUST DON'T DO THAT. AND I THINK THAT'S WHAT'S IMPORTANT HERE. SO WHILE IT MAY FEEL STRANGE FOR, AMERICANS, I THINK FOR MANY BRITISH PEOPLE, THEY'RE LOOKING AT THIS SAYING, WOW, WHAT A GLIMPSE THAT I DON'T NORMALLY GET TO SEE. THIS IS A PRINCESS, THE FUTURE WHO'S BEING VERY RAW OF AN INTIMATE PERSONAL PORTRAYAL OF THEIR FAMILY LIFE. YOU KNOW, SEEING HER PRINCE WILLIAM, HAVING SOME PUBLIC DISPLAYS OF AFFECTION, THEIR ARMS AROUND, EACH OTHER. WE DON'T SEE THAT FROM ROYAL COUPLES ACTUALLY HEARING THEIR KIDS GIGGLING, PLAYING CARDS TOGETHER, PLAYING CARDS WITH THEIR GRANDPARENTS. PARENTS MAKE AN APPEARANCE. ALL OF THIS IS ARE THINGS THAT WE SEE. AND I THINK THAT'S WHAT'S SO STRIKING AND SO SIGNIFICANT. THIS VIDEO. NOT ONLY DO WE HEAR HER OPEN UP ABOUT HER CANCER DIAGNOSIS AND SPEAKING TO OTHER PEOPLE ON WHAT SHE CALLS CANCER JOURNEYS. BUT AGAIN, THIS THIS INTIMATE LOOK AT THEIR LIVES, IT'S JUST SOMETHING THAT'S EXTRAORDINARY ,THE ROYAL FAMILY TO PUT OUT. YEAH, YOU'RE RIGHT. AND THAT THAT'S IT YOU NAILED IT. I MEAN, THAT'S WHAT STANDS OUT. IT'S JUST WE'VE NEVER SEEN ANYTHING LIKE IT. MAGGIE, GREAT TO. SEE YOU. THANK YOU SO MUCH FOR JUST THE PERSPECTIVE. ALL RIGHT COMING UP, SHE HAD THE HAT, THE HITS AND THE HOLD THEM AT THE SAME TEXAS, THE CMAS AND BEYONCE GOT SNUBBED AND SNUB DOUBT.

I'M MELISSA. DON. WHEREVER THE STORY IS, WE'LL TAKE YOU THERE. YOU'RE STREAMING ABC NEWS LIVE STREAM WITH US. SOME OF THE OTHER TOP HEADLINES THAT WE'RE TRACKING FOR YOU THIS HOUR. JURY SELECTION SET BEGIN TODAY IN THE FEDERAL TRIAL OF THOSE THREE MEMPHIS COPS INVOLVED THE BEATING DEATH OF TYREE NICHOLS FROM OUR OFFICERS. DARIUS, DEMETRIUS, HALEY AND JUSTIN SMITH, ALL CHARGED WITH OBSTRUCTING NICHOLS RIGHT THROUGH EXCESSIVE FORCE AND OBSTRUCTING JUSTICE. THEY'RE WITNESS TAMPERING. ALL THREE OF THEM PLED NOT GUILTY, BUT TWO OTHER COPS INVOLVED HAVE ENTERED INTO PLEA DEALS WITH PROSECUTORS. STARTING TOMORROW, THE FDA WILL REQUIRE ALL MAMMOGRAM REPORTS TO PATIENTS OF THEIR BREAST TISSUE DENSITY. ABOUT HALF OF WOMEN OVER 40 OF DENSE TISSUE. WELL, IT ISN'T AN IMMEDIATE HEALTH ISSUE CAN ACTUALLY MAKE CANCER MORE DIFFICULT TO SEE IN A MAMMOGRAM. NEW REQUIREMENT DOESN'T PROVIDE NEXT STEPS, BUT PATIENTS WITH DENSE BREAST TISSUE ARE ENCOURAGED TO FOLLOW UP WITH THEIR DOCTORS. AND SUNUNU TO THE RESCUE, A SCARE AT A LOBSTER ROLL EATING COMPETITION. NEW HAMPSHIRE. YEAH, WE'RE NOT MAKING THIS UP. A CONTESTANT BY THE NAME OF CHRISTIAN MURANO BEGAN CHOKING. BUT THANKFULLY, THE NEW HAMPSHIRE GOVERNOR WAS NEARBY AND RUSHED TO PERFORM THE HEIMLICH MANEUVER. IT WORKED. MORENO RECOVERED OR MORENO RECOVERED, RATHER AND FORTUNATELY, HE LOST THE COMPETITION AND CLEARLY WAS SURPRISED TO FIND OUT IT WAS THE GOVERNOR BECAUSE IT IS LIFE . >> WELL, SHE TOOK HER ROOTS RHYTHMS AND RODE HER WAY RIGHT INTO THE HEADLINES. >> NO KNOW, BACK YOUR CAR? DOWN, DOWN, DOWN, DOWN. >> SO LAKE. OH, YEAH. BEYONCE'S COWBOY. CARTER MADE HISTORY THIS YEAR WHEN IT SPENT FOUR WEEKS ON TOP OF BILLBOARD'S TOP COUNTRY ALBUMS, MAKING HER THE FIRST BLACK WOMAN TO ACHIEVE FEAT. BUT SHE STILL GOT A SNUB AS BIG AS TEXAS. NO CMA NOMINATIONS, EVEN THOUGH TEXAS HOLD'EM WAS ONE OF THIS YEAR'S BIGGEST COUNTRY HITS TOPPING THE BILLBOARD HOT SONGS CHART FOR TEN CONSECUTIVE WEEKS BETWEEN FEBRUARY AND APRIL YEAR, MAKING IT THE SECOND LONGEST RUNNING NUMBER ONE HIT OF 2024 ON THAT CHART. SO WHAT THE HECK HAPPENED? SIRIUS XM RADIO HOST AND MY ALL THINGS POP CULTURE GURU MIKE MUSE JOINING ME NOW. ALL RIGHT. I'M JUST GOING TO GET RIGHT TO THE POINT. I'M GOING TO ASK THE QUESTION STRAIGHT UP KNOW, IS RACISM AT THE HEART OF THIS? >> DO YOU THINK? I MEAN, THE PREMISE OF THE QUESTION, I THINK IT NEEDS A BIT MORE CONTEXT. I THINK YOU HAD TO LOOK AT THE TROUBLE THAT BLACK ARTISTS HAVE ALWAYS FACED WITH COUNTRY . GOING BACK TO LINDA MARTELL, WHO WAS FEATURED, CELEBRATED ON BEYONCE'S ALBUM BACK IN 1969, SHE WAS THE FIRST BLACK WOMAN TO PLAY AT THE GRAND OLE OPRY TO, WHICH SHE WAS BOOED. SHE WAS HECKLED. SHE WAS CALLED ALL KIND OF RACIST NAMES TO THE POINT THAT SHE HAD TO LEAVE THE COUNTRY MUSIC BECAUSE SHE DIDN'T FEEL A PLACE WAS THERE. I INTERVIEWED ARTISTS ON MY SHOW NAMED MONEY LONG WHO STARTED OUT IN COUNTRY MUSIC, A BLACK FEMALE ARTIST WHO SAYS SHE DIDN'T FEEL WELCOMED IN, THE KIND OF MUSIC SPACE SHE LEFT. I'VE INTERVIEWED MICKEY GUYTON ON MY SHOW, TOO, AS WELL. ANOTHER BLACK FEMALE ARTIST WHO ACTUALLY CRIED ON MY SHOW BECAUSE HOW SHE DIDN'T FEEL WELCOMED INTO THE COUNTRY MUSIC SCENE. THEN YOU LOOK AT WHAT HAPPENED WITH BEYONCE AT THE CMA WHEN SHE PERFORMED DADDY'S LESSONS WITH THE DIXIE CHICKS, TO WHICH TALKED ABOUT THE EXPERIENCE OF THAT, HER FEELING WELCOMED. YOU HAD ONE OF THE SINGERS AND THEN DIXIE CHICKS TALK ABOUT HOW AFTER THAT PERFORMANCE, WHICH WAS THE HIGHEST RATED 15 MINUTE SEGMENT ON THE CMA YEAR, THE AMOUNT OF RACIST COMMENTARY THAT THE CMA RECEIVED, THEY ACTUALLY TOOK DOWN BEYONCE'S VIDEO, HER PERFORMING AT THE CMA. IS THAT ACCURATE? WITHIN 24 HOURS AT THE RECEIVING BACKLASH FOR REMOVING IT, THE CMA HAS TO BRING IT BACK UP. AND SO YOU HAVE TO PUT MORE THINGS IN CONTEXT WHEN MAKING THAT TYPE OF STATEMENT. THE OTHER THING IS, IF YOU LOOK AT IT WHAT CONSTITUTES A COUNTRY SONG, BY DEFINITION, WHAT CONSTITUTES THAT STORYTELLING AND THE USE OF INSTRUMENTATIONS, LIKE THE BANJOS TO WHICH ALL OF THAT WAS FORMULATED, AND HER CONSTRUCTIONS OF HER SONG AND THE ARCHITECTURES OF HER ALBUM, SHE BROKE RECORDS. IT WAS CRITICALLY. SO THEN THE QUESTION IS WHAT HAPPENED AFTER PUTTING ALL OF THAT INTO CONTEXT? >> RIGHT. I MEAN, JUST THE NOTE ON THE BANJO, RHIANNON GIDDENS, WHO I'M SUCH A BIG FAN OF AND HAD MANY AND INTERACTIONS WITH, SHE PLAYED BANJO ON THAT ALBUM . AND IT'S INTERESTING, WE HAD SUCH A HUGE TALK ABOUT MARKETING. WELL, YOU KNOW HER WELL IN THE DEEP DIVE. WE TALKED ABOUT JUST, YOU KNOW BLACK COUNTRY MUSIC ARTISTS AND WHAT THEY'VE BEEN UP AGAINST SINCE ROOTS MUSIC, YOU KNOW, AND TRYING TO GET, YOU KNOW, JUST RECOGNITION IN THIS WHOLE AREA OF COUNTRY. SO LET ME ASK YOU THIS QUESTION THEN. HOW IS IT THAT DARIUS RUCKER WINS A CMA AWARD FOR BEST NEW ARTIST? JUST YEARS AGO AND BEYONCÉ GETS NOTHING? WHAT DID DARIUS OR NOT DO THAT BEYONCÉ DIDN'T DO OR NOT DO? >> I LOVE TO HEAR THAT YOU WERE ABLE TO ASK THE DIFFICULT QUESTIONS AND, THE QUESTIONS THAT ARE OFTEN NOT EASY TO DISCUSS ON NATIONAL TELEVISION AND PLATFORMS LIKE THIS. IT GOES TO THE CONVERSATION THAT WE TALK OFTEN ABOUT IN TERMS OF IDENTITY, POLITICS AND SOCIETY. THERE IS STILL THE MAJORITY NORMS AND CONSTRUCTIONS ON WHAT IS ACCEPTABLE BLACKS AND WHAT IS ACCEPTABLE BLACK POLITICS. AND WHEN YOU ARE IN THE MAJORITY OF BLACK WHITE SPACES ,THERE OFTEN IS THIS NARRATIVE OF WHO IS THE ACCEPTABLE BLACK, THE ROOM. WE IN THE BLACK CONTENT COMMUNITY, WE HAVE A NARRATIVE OUT THERE, BUT WE DO DISCUSS WHO IS A SAFE IN WHITE AMERICA. AND OFTENTIMES YOU WOULD SEE THIS NARRATIVE, IT GETS CREATED OF WHO IS ACCEPTABLE IN THE WHITE AND WHO ISN'T ACCEPTABLE IN WHITE SPACES. THERE SEEMS TO BE SOME QUESTION ABOUT IF YOU LOOK AT EVERYTHING WE TALKED ABOUT AND YOU LOOK AT THE RECORDS AND THE CHARTS THAT SHE'S MAKE, BUT THIS ALBUM ,WHY IS SHE SHE MEANING BEYONCE, NOT ABLE TO RECEIVE THE NOMINATION AND FELT WELCOMED INTO THIS CMS. >> I TELL YOU WHAT, I COULD TALK TO YOU FOR HOURS ABOUT THIS AND WE WILL CONTINUE DISCUSSION. MIKE NEWS LOVE TAB AND YOU THANK YOU SO MUCH. >> THANK YOU. THE NEWS NEVER STOPS. NEITHER DO WE. I'M KYRA PHILLIPS. THANKS FOR STARTING WITH US. >> A LOT MORE NEWS UP NEXT. DON'T GO FAR. >> WHENEVER AND WHEREVER NEWS BREAKS, IT'S SO IMPORTANT TO ALWAYS REMEMBER THAT LIVES ARE CHANGED HERE IN LONDON, IN BARCELONA, ALL TEXAS, EDINBURGH, SCOTLAND, REPORTING FROM ROLLING FORK, THE UKRAINIAN REFUGEES HERE IN WARSAW. WE'RE HEADING TO A SMALL COMMUNITY OUTSIDE OF MEXICO CITY, GETTING YOU BEHIND THE STORIES. >> THEY HAPPEN. ABC NEWS LIVE PRIME.

ABC NEWS WORLD NEWS TONIGHT WITH MUIR, AMERICA'S NUMBER ONE MOST WATCHED NEWSCAST ACROSS OF TELEVISION. >> FIRST THING IN THE MORNING. THERE'S A LOT GOING ON. WE'RE STILL IN A FLASH FLOOD WARNING TO CATCH YOU UP WITH WHAT HAPPENED OVERNIGHT. CLASHING OVER NATIONAL SECURITY . WHAT'S HAPPENING TODAY, TENSIONS IN THE MIDDLE EAST, WHAT PEOPLE ARE TALKING ABOUT, THE WORRIES ON WALL STREET. FAST STRAIGHT FORWARD WITH SOME FUN IN BETWEEN. CATCHING UP ON SLEEP DURING THE WEEKEND. COULD BE GOOD FOR YOUR HEART. NONALCOHOLIC BARS ARE POPPING UP IN A GROWING NUMBER OF CITIES. THAT'S THE SPIRIT, AMERICA THIS MORNING, AMERICA'S NUMBER ONE EARLY MORNING NEWS ON ABC NEWS. >> WHY IT A REGULAR DAY FOR 19-YEAR-OLD MELISSA WITH SOMETHING TERRIBLE HAD HAPPENED TO HER. WE HAD SEVERAL SUSPECTS. ALL THESE KINDS OF LEADS. A KNOWN SERIAL KILLER IN YOUR AREA. COULD HE BE INVOLVED. WE'RE ACTUALLY FINDING KEY EVIDENCE THAT COULD HAVE SLIPPED THROUGH THE CRACKS. >> HER LAST HOURS ON THIS EARTH WITH HER HONORIFIC. >> THIS BEAUTIFUL YOUNG GIRL. POLICE WILL FIND OUT WHAT HAPPENED AT WIT'S END AT THE HUNT FOR A KILLER. ONLY ON HULU. IT'S THE MOST CONSEQUENTIAL MOMENT OF THIS CAMPAIGN. NOW, KAMALA HARRIS. DONALD TRUMP FACE TO FACE THE ABC NEWS PRESIDENTIAL DEBATE, MODERATED BY DAVID AND DAVIS TOMORROW NIGHT LIVE ON ABC. AND STREAMING ON HULU AND DISNEY PLUS RIGHT NOW ON ABC NEWS LIVE, THE PHILLY FACE OFF. AND IT'S HAPPENING RIGHT HERE ON ABC NEWS LIVE. THE FIRST DEBATE BETWEEN VICE PRESIDENT KAMALA HARRIS AND FORMER PRESIDENT DONALD TRUMP. AND IT'S ONLY ONE DAY AWAY. FULL COVERAGE FROM THE CITY OF BROTHERLY LOVE ALL DAY LONG. PLUS, TROPICAL STORM FRANCINE TAKING AIM AT THE GULF COAST. THE LATEST ON THE SOON TO BE HURRICANE'S TRACK AND TIMING THIS HOUR. AND AN URGENT MANHUNT UNDERWAY RIGHT NOW AFTER A SHOOTING AT A KENTUCKY HIGHWAY WHERE THE INVESTIGATION AT THIS HOUR. AND GOOD AFTERNOON, EVERYONE. I'M KYRA PHILLIPS. OUR TOP STORY, COUNTING DOWN THE HOURS. VICE PRESIDENT KAMALA HARRIS AND FORMER PRESIDENT DONALD TRUMP SET TO FACE FOR THE VERY FIRST TIME IN TOMORROW'S PRESIDENTIAL DEBATE RIGHT HERE ,ABC NEWS LIVE. WE ARE TOLD THAT TRUMP IS HOLDING INFORMAL POLICY SESSIONS WITH A SMALL TEAM OF HIS ADVISERS. WHILE HARRIS SAYS SHE'S READY TO GO AFTER A WEEKEND OF INTENSE DEBATE PRACTICE WITH HER TEAM SAYING IN A RADIO INTERVIEW SHE'S EVEN PREPARING FOR TRUMP'S LIES. TAKE A LISTEN. IT IS NOT FOR HIM IN TERMS OF HOW HE WOULD GO AND AND WE SHOULD BE PREPARED FOR THAT. AND WE SHOULD BE PREPARED FOR THE FACT THAT HE IS NOT BURDENED BY SOMETHING THE TRUTH. AND WE SHOULD BE PREPARED FOR THE FACT THAT HE IS PROBABLY GOING TO SPEAK A LOT OF UNTRUTHS. >> WELL, WITH ONLY 56 DAYS UNTIL ELECTION DAY, WE DO HAVE TEAM COVERAGE US OFF WITH SENIOR WHITE HOUSE CORRESPONDENT SELINA WANG ALONG WITH OUR JAY O'BRIEN NOW AT THE DEBATE SITE RIGHT THERE IN PHILLY. SELINA HARRIS LAYING THE GROUNDWORK THAT TRUMP IS GOING TO LIE DURING THIS DEBATE. SO GIVE US THE DETAILS. WHAT ARE YOU LEARNING AND WHAT ARE YOUR SOURCES TELLING YOU ABOUT HOW SHE'S PREPARING NOW? >> WELL, SOURCES TELL ME THAT VICE PRESIDENT HARRIS IS PREPARED FOR WHATEVER VERSION OF DONALD TRUMP SHOWS UP ON THAT DEBATE STAGE. >> AND YOU HEARD HER IN THAT RADIO. SHE'S CLEARLY SETTING EXPECTATIONS THAT REGARDLESS SHE IS PREPARED FOR DONALD TRUMP TO REPEATEDLY LIE. NOW, THERE IS A LOT THE LINE IN THIS DEBATE FOR VICE PRESIDENT HARRIS. >> THIS WOULD BE DONALD TRUMP'S SEVENTH GENERAL ELECTION PRESIDENTIAL DEBATE. IT WILL ONLY BE HER FIRST. SO THAT'S PART OF THE REASON WHY SHE'S SO INTENSELY PREPARING. SHE'S TRYING TO DO HER BEST TO RECREATE THE ENVIRONMENT THAT SHE'S GOING TO CONFRONT ON THAT DEBATE STAGE. SHE'S BEEN DOING THESE FULL MOCK DEBATE SESSIONS WITH THE LIGHTING, WITH THE TRUMP STANDARD, WHO I'M TOLD IS REALLY APPROACHING HIS ROLE AS A FULL ON METHOD ACTOR. SHE'S TAKING THIS VERY, VERY SERIOUSLY. AND SOURCES TELL ME, KYRA, THAT SHE'S GOT A FEW GOALS FOR THIS DEBATE. SHE STILL WANTS TO CONTINUE TO EDUCATE THE AMERICAN PEOPLE ABOUT WHO SHE IS, HER MIDDLE CLASS, HER BACKGROUND AS A PROSECUTOR, AS A SENATOR, AS AN ATTORNEY GENERAL. SHE WANTS TO CONTINUE TO LAY OUT HER ECONOMIC POLICIES TO THE AMERICAN PEOPLE. AND, OF COURSE, SHE WANTS TO TRY TO GET UNDER DONALD TRUMP'S SKIN WHILE, MAINTAINING HER OWN COMPOSURE. JAY, I THINK IT'S JUST WILD THAT THEY HAVE NEVER EVEN MET IN PERSON AFTER ALL THESE YEARS. AND TRUMP'S GROUP OF ADVISERS NOW, INCLUDING CONGRESSMAN MATT GATES AND FORMER CONGRESSWOMAN TULSI GABBARD, HELPING HIM PREPARE FOR THIS MOMENT. WHAT MORE DO WE KNOW YET HERE? THINK ABOUT IT THIS WAY. THE FIRST TIME DONALD TRUMP AND KAMALA HARRIS WILL EVER LOOK INTO EACH OTHER'S EYES IN PERSON AND MEET WILL BE ON THAT DEBATE STAGE IN THEIR BEHIND ME. AND I CAN YOU I'VE GOTTEN TO LOOK AT IT AND IT'S CLOSE QUARTERS IN THERE THEY'RE GOING TO BE VERY CLOSE ONE ANOTHER. THE THING ABOUT DONALD TRUMP'S DEBATE PREP TO KEEP IN MIND IS IT GIVES YOU A LITTLE BIT OF A WINDOW INTO HIS POSSIBLE LINES OF ATTACK AGAINST. HARRIS AS YOU SAID, HE'S NOT DOING, AS ONE WOULD CHARACTERIZE, MOCK DEBATES INSTEAD, AS HIS ADVISERS CHARACTERIZE IT, DOING THESE KIND OF INFORMAL SESSIONS. IT'S THE EXACT SAME WAY HE FRAMED HIS PREPARATION FOR THAT PREVIOUS DEBATE WITH PRESIDENT BIDEN. HE'S MEETING WITH TULSI GABBARD ,AS YOU SAID, DEMOCRATIC CONGRESSWOMAN WHO HAS FACED KAMALA HARRIS ON THE DEBATE STAGE BEFORE AND TOOK HER TO TASK ON HER RECORD AS A PROSECUTOR. THAT'S A LITTLE BIT OF INSIGHT INTO A POSSIBLE LINE OF ATTACK THAT TRUMP WILL EMPLOY. HE'S ALSO FROM MAC GATES. AND MAC GATES IS A CONSERVATIVE FIREBRAND. HE'S A BOMB. AND DONALD TRUMP LIKES TO CHARACTERIZE HIMSELF AS A COUNTERPUNCHER ON THE DEBATE STAGE. SO IT GIVES YOU A LITTLE BIT OF A WINDOW INTO HIS STRATEGY TOMORROW NIGHT. >> WELL, SELINA HARRIS FINALLY ADDED THIS LONG ISSUES PAGE TO HER WEBSITE. >> WHY DID IT TAKE SO LONG? YEAH, LOOK, I MEAN, IN THE BEGINNING WEEKS OF VICE PRESIDENT HARRIS ANNOUNCING HER CANDIDACY, SHE REALLY WANTED TO JUST RIDE ON THAT EUPHORIA, THAT WAVE EUPHORIA AND EXCITEMENT AROUND HER AND HER TEAM. CLEARLY WANT TO GET BOGGED DOWN INTO THE NITTY GRITTY POLICY DETAILS. BUT CLEARLY, WHERE SHE STANDS AND HER ISSUES IS BECOMING A VULNERABILITY FOR HER. >> THAT LATEST "NEW YORK TIMES" SIENA POLL SHOWS THAT ABOUT ONE THIRD OF VOTERS SAY THEY WANT TO LEARN MORE ABOUT HER. THAT, OF COURSE, A VULNERABILITY THAT DONALD TRUMP DOES NOT HAVE. AND MANY OF THOSE VOTERS ALSO SAY THAT THEY WANT TO UNDERSTAND MORE ABOUT WHERE SHE STANDS ON THE ISSUES, ESPECIALLY. SHE HAS MODERATED HER POSITION QUITE SIGNIFICANTLY SINCE WHEN SHE WAS IN THE 2020 DEMOCRATIC PRIMARIES. NOW, HER WEBSITE DOES GO INTO MORE DETAIL ABOUT SOME OF THE ECONOMIC POLICY PROPOSALS THAT SHE'S ALREADY LAID OUT, INCLUDING AROUND LOWERING PRICES FOR AMERICANS GOING AFTER CORPORATE PRICE GOUGING. HER PLANS TO MAKE HOUSING MORE AFFORDABLE AMONG A NUMBER OF OTHER ISSUES. AND THAT'S ALSO WHAT SHE WANTS TO ACCOMPLISH ON THAT DEBATE STAGE, IS TO MAKE CLEAR WHERE SHE STANDS NOW IN WANTING TO RUN AS A MORE MODERATE DEMOCRAT. >> ALL RIGHT, SELINA THERE AT THE WHITE HOUSE FOR US THERE IN PHILLY. SEE YOU SOON. THANKS, GUYS. THERE'S A LOT RIDING ON THIS DEBATE FOR BOTH CANDIDATES, AS WE ALL KNOW NOW. AND NOW THERE'S NEW POLL THAT'S ACTUALLY SHOWING THAT THE RACE IS NECK AND NECK. THE NEW TIMES SIENA COLLEGE POLL INDICATES THAT VOTERS WANT TO LEARN MORE ABOUT VICE PRESIDENT HARRIS AS WELL BEFORE CASTING THEIR BALLOT. WASHINGTON BUREAU CHIEF AND POLITICAL DIRECTOR RICK KLEIN HAS THE DETAILS FOR US. RICK, YOU WROTE A TIGHT RACE FOR PRESIDENT IN SOME WAYS HAS GOTTEN TIGHTER IN THE LAST COUPLE OF DAYS GIVEN THE POLLS THAT HAVE ROLLED IN. OUR FIVETHIRTYEIGHT POLLING AVERAGE NOW HAS HARRIS LEADING TRUMP BY LESS THAN THREE PERCENTAGE POINTS. FOR A WHILE, IT SEEMED LIKE SHE HAD SOME MOMENTUM. WAS STARTING TO PULL AWAY A BIT. THAT APPEARS TO HAVE STALLED OUT. AND IN THE BATTLEGROUND STATES SETTLED INTO A VERY CLOSE RACE IN ALMOST ALL OF THOSE STATES. HARRIS NOW LEADING BUT NARROWLY IN FIVE OF THE SEVEN BATTLEGROUNDS RIGHT HERE IN PENNSYLVANIA, WHERE THE DEBATE WILL BE TOMORROW NIGHT. HARRIS' LEAD IS NOW LESS THAN A PERCENTAGE POINT. THAT'S BASICALLY A TOSS UP, AND THAT'S IN THE BIGGEST AND PROBABLY THE IMPORTANT OF THE BATTLEGROUND STATES. AND IN TERMS OF PERCEPTIONS, WHAT HARRIS HAS TO DO TOMORROW NIGHT GETS REALLY WELL DEFINED BY POLLS. ALMOST A THIRD OF VOTERS OVERALL SAY FOR THE SITTING VICE PRESIDENT THEY NEED TO LEARN MORE ABOUT HER AND HER POSITIONS TO DECIDE TO VOTE FOR AND HOW TO VOTE. LESS THAN ONE IN TEN VOTERS, 9% SAY THE SAME ABOUT DONALD TRUMP. SO DONALD TRUMP GOES IN MUCH MORE IN TERMS OF HOW THEY'RE DEFINED. ALMOST HALF OF VOTERS SAY, THEY THINK KAMALA HARRIS IS TOO LIBERAL. LESS THAN A THIRD SAY THAT DONALD TRUMP IS TOO CONSERVATIVE. AT THE SAME TIME, A LARGE OF VOTERS SAY THEY WANT A BREAK FROM JOE BIDEN. HARRIS OF COURSE, JOE BIDEN'S VICE PRESIDENT. SO IT ALL LINES UP TO MAKE A SERIES OF CHALLENGES SHE HAS TO DEFINE HERSELF. SHE HAS TO DEFINE HERSELF AS A MODERATE. AND SHE HAS TO DEFINE HERSELF AS MORE DISTINCT FROM JOE BIDEN THAN MANY VOTERS CURRENTLY BELIEVE KYRA. >> ALL RIGHT, RICK, THANKS MUCH. AND I'LL SEE YOU SOON, TOO. SO MARKET ON YOUR CALENDAR BECAUSE IT'S ONE OF THE MOST HIGHEST STAKES PRESIDENTIAL DEBATES TO DATE. IT'S HAPPENING RIGHT HERE ON ABC NEWS LIVE, THE FIRST FACE OFF BETWEEN FORMER PRESIDENT TRUMP AND VICE PRESIDENT KAMALA HARRIS TOMORROW NIGHT, 9 P.M.. WE ARE HEADED TO PHILLY TODAY, SO WE WILL SEE YOU THERE. MILLIONS OF YOU ALONG THE GULF COAST ARE ON ALERT NOW AS FRANCINE IS TURNING INTO A TROPICAL STORM AND IS ON ITS WAY TO BECOMING A HURRICANE THIS WEEK. THE NATIONAL HURRICANE CENTER FORECASTING THAT FOR US, FRANCINE IS JUST GOING TO KEEP GROWING, MAKING LANDFALL IN LOUISIANA. THEN ON THE WEST COAST, THE STATE OF EMERGENCY IS ALREADY IN EFFECT IN SAN BERNARDINO COUNTY BECAUSE OF A FAST MOVING FIRE. SCORCHING TEMPERATURES MAKING THE FIGHT THE LINE FIVE OR MORE DIFFICULT AS FIREFIGHTERS . AT LEAST 17,000 ACRES HAVE NOW BEEN BURNED. OUR METEOROLOGIST MARIA THEODORE JOINS ME NOW. SO SMART. LET'S GO AND START WITH THE STORM ON THE GULF COAST. IF YOU DON'T TALK ABOUT WHAT WE CAN EXPECT AND WHERE IT'S HEADED AUNT CARRIE. YEAH, LET'S DO IT. SO RIGHT NOW WE HAVE TROPICAL FRANCINE, WHICH COULD BECOME A HURRICANE AS SOON AS TOMORROW, MAKING LANDFALL MORE LIKELY ON WEDNESDAY. THE CORE OF THE STORM RIGHT NOW IS HITTING 480 MILES SOUTH SOUTHWEST OF CAMERON, LOUISIANA, AS YOU SEE HERE. NOW, WHAT WE'RE ANTICIPATING IS THAT IN THE COMING HOURS AND COMING DAYS THAT THIS STORM WILL CONTINUE TO DRIVE TOWARDS LOUISIANA. SO THE THE CONE OF UNCERTAINTY, THAT MEANS THE CENTER OF THE STORM COULD FALL ANYWHERE AS FAR WEST AS THE BORDER OF TEXAS AND LOUISIANA, AS FAR EAST NEW ORLEANS. NONETHELESS, IT IS LIKELY TO STRENGTHEN TO A CAT ONE BY THE TIME IT MAKES LANDFALL. >> SO HERE'S THE THE FORECAST IN TERMS OF TIMING. THIS IS LUNCHTIME ON TUESDAY. >> NOTICE WHERE THE CORE OF THE STORM IS. BUT ALSO NOTICE WHERE THE RAIN BANDS ARE. THEY'RE ALREADY REACHING FAR UP INTO BEAUMONT, INTO HOUSTON, GALVESTON, LAKE CHARLES, NEW ORLEANS, GETTING WHIPPED BY RAIN FROM FRANCINE AS HEAD THROUGH TUESDAY AFTERNOON AND EVENING. THE CORE OF THE STORM GETS CLOSER AND CLOSER TO LOUISIANA. THIS PROJECTED MODEL HERE HAS, IT DRIVING IN VERY CLOSE TO LAKE CHARLES AND CAMERON, THE CENTER OF THE STORM, THAT IS. AND THAT'S BY WEDNESDAY AFTERNOON. AND, YOU KNOW, WE'RE GOING TO BE EXPECTING NOT JUST THE HEAVY RAINFALL WITH THIS SYSTEM, BUT ALSO THE THREAT FOR LIFE THREATENING STORMS. THAT'S SOMETHING TO BE VERY, VERY VIGILANT ABOUT. BUT SIGNIFICANT FLASH FLOODING IN THE AREAS SHADED IN RED HERE. SO I-10 ACROSS THE ENTIRETY OF LOUISIANA RIGHT ON INTO THE SOUTHERN TIP OF MISSISSIPPI KYRA. >> ALL RIGHT, SOMARA APPRECIATE IT. THANKS SO MUCH. WELL, PRINCESS KATE SAYS THAT SHE IS DONE WITH CHEMO AND IS NOW CANCER FREE. THE PRINCESS OF WALES SHARING THE GOOD NEWS IN A HIGHLY PRODUCED VIDEO SHARED BY BUCKINGHAM PALACE TODAY. JUST SIX MONTHS AFTER OPENING UP ABOUT HER DIAGNOSIS. KATE SAYS HER FOCUS IS NOW STAYING CANCER FREE WHILE LOOKING AHEAD TO HER NEW JOURNEY. >> ALTHOUGH I FINISHED CHEMOTHERAPY, MY PATH TO HEALING AND FULL RECOVERY IS LONG AND I MUST CONTINUE TO TAKE EACH DAY AS IT COMES. I AM, HOWEVER, LOOKING FORWARD TO BEING BACK AT WORK AND UNDERTAKING A FEW MORE PUBLIC ENGAGEMENTS IN THE COMING MONTHS WHEN I CAN. DESPITE ALL THAT'S GONE BEFORE I ENTER THIS NEW PHASE OF RECOVERY WITH A RENEWED OF HOPE AND APPRECIATION OF LIFE. >> LET'S BRING IN OUR FOREIGN CORRESPONDENT MAGGIE RULLI NOW OUT OF LONDON. SO, MAGGIE, WHAT MORE DO WE KNOW ABOUT KATE'S CONDITION? WELL, YOU KNOW, I THINK WHAT'S MOST STRIKING, WHAT WE'VE LEARNED TODAY IS JUST BEING ABLE TO HEAR FROM PRINCESS KATE IN HER OWN WORDS. NOW, THAT VIDEO IS REALLY EXTRAORDINARY. WE HAVEN'T REALLY SEEN ANYTHING LIKE FROM THE ROYAL FAMILY. SOMETHING THAT WAS SO PERSONAL AND SO INTIMATE. AND KATE REALLY GETS VULNERABLE. WE HEARD IT THERE HERSELF TALKING ABOUT, YOU KNOW, LOOKING AT LIFE IN A NEW WAY, HAVING A NEW PERSPECTIVE. AND WE STILL DON'T KNOW ANY NEW DETAILS ABOUT EXACTLY WHAT OF CANCER SHE HAD, WHAT STAGE IT WAS, WHAT HER TREATMENT PLAN WAS, THAT THE PALACE HAS SAID SHE WISHES TO REMAIN PRIVATE, BUT SHE DID OPEN UP SAYING THAT SHE HAS FINISHED HER ROUND OF CHEMOTHERAPY, THAT HER FOCUS RIGHT NOW ON STAYING CANCER FREE. BUT SHE ALSO ACKNOWLEDGED IT'S A LONG TO RECOVERY. AND WHILE SHE'S DONE WITH THIS ROUND OF CHEMOTHERAPY JOURNEY IS BY NO MEANS OVER, SHE'S GOING TO TAKE IT SLOW. SHE'S RELYING ON FAMILY AND USED TO BE TIME TO REALLY THINK THE PUBLIC FOR THEIR PRIVACY, FOR THEIR SUPPORT AND ALSO CARE. WHAT REALLY STUCK WITH ME IS THAT WHEN SHE ENDS THIS VIDEO, SHE MAKES A TO SAY I'M STILL WITH EVERYONE ON THEIR CANCER JOURNEY. SHE UNDERSTANDS SO MANY PEOPLE ARE GOING THROUGH EITHER THEIR OWN CANCER JOURNEY OR THEIR JOURNEY WITH OTHER, YOU KNOW, MEDICAL TRAGEDIES AS WELL. AND SHE'S MAKING THE POINT SHE GETS IT NOW. SHE'S BEEN THROUGH IT, HER FAMILY'S BEEN THROUGH IT, AND SHE'S GOING TO STAY SIDE BY SIDE WITH THEM KYRA. MAGGIE, GREAT TO SEE YOU. THANK YOU FOR THE UPDATE. ALL RIGHT. COMING UP, BIG RULING FROM THE JUDGE IN THE CASE OF THE IDAHO UNIVERSITY KILLINGS. PLUS, KENTUCKY RESIDENTS ON EDGE AS A HIGHWAY SHOOTER IS STILL ON THE LOOSE. WE'RE TRYING TO TRACK NEXT, WHAT DOES IT TAKE TO BE THE MOST WATCHED NEWSCAST IN AMERICA? AN OPERATION TO CAP YOUR LICENSE PLATE DURING COMBAT OPERATIONS. WE'RE APPROACHING THE GATE NOW. MILITANTS CAME IN FROM FOUR OR FIVE DIFFERENT DIRECTIONS, OPERATE NUCLEAR REACTORS. A LOADED AND READY TO GO. THE HOUSE IS DESTROYED, BUT THE FLAG THERE'S NOT A TEAR IN AND OUT OF IT. HOW IMPORTANT IS THIS LABEL RIGHT HERE MADE TO YOU WHEN THEY LOOK AT YOUR SMILE? >> YOU'RE PROUD OF IT? I LOVE IT. GREAT WORK. HI. WHERE ARE YOU? ARE YOU. IT'S MALE DAVID DAVIS. >> YES. YES. I'M. >> YOU ARE. I KNOW YOU ARE. YOU DO? EVERY NIGHT. ABC'S WORLD NEWS TONIGHT WITH DAVID MUIR IS AMERICA'S MOST NEWSCAST. >> IF YOU WERE COMING OF AGE IN THE 1980S, THE BRAT PACK WAS NEAR THE CENTER OF YOUR AWARENESS. BUT FOR THOSE OF US EXPERIENCING IT FROM THE INSIDE THE BRAT PACK WAS SOMETHING VERY DIFFERENT. IF YOU COULD HAVE BRAT PACK NAME NOT EXIST. >> I HATED IT. >> WHAT A DISASTER. WHY DID WE TAKE AS AN OFFENSIVE ADDRESS? >> LIKE I SAY, WE WERE THE BEATLES. WELL, DIDN'T SELL SHEA STADIUM 1985. I THINK WE COULD HAVE HAD. BUT WHY DO SO MANY PEOPLE START THEIR DAY HERE? FROM ABC NEWS THIS IS "START HERE" BE IN THE KNOW AND GET A DIFFERENT TAKE ON THE DAY'S TOP STORIES A LOT OF NEWS TODAY SO LET'S GET RIGHT TO IT. LISTEN NOW TO THE DAILY NEWS PODCAST. HONORED WITH FOUR EDWARD R. 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 PART OF THE STORY THAT YOU DIDN'T SEE COMING. >> WHEREVER YOU GET >> ALL RIGHT., WE HAVE BREAKING TO BRING YOU RIGHT NOW, THE JUDGE OVERSEEING THE IDAHO COLLEGE MURDER CASE OF BRYAN COE BURGER HAS GRANTED A CHANGE OF VENUE FOR HIS UPCOMING TRIAL. THIS COMES AFTER THE DEFENSE SUCCESSFULLY ARGUED IT WAS TOO GREAT OF A RISK TO PULL A JURY FROM THE AREA THAT THE KILLINGS OCCURRED. AND 2020 COWORKERS ACCUSED OF MURDERING FOUR UNIVERSITY OF IDAHO STUDENTS IN THEIR OFF CAMPUS HOME. OUR LEGAL CONTRIBUTOR AND TRIAL ATTORNEY BRIAN BUCKMIRE ME NOW FOR MORE. >> SO, BRIAN, ARE YOU SURPRISED THAT THEY GOT A VENUE CHANGE? >> NOT REALLY. AFTER LISTENING TO THE ARGUMENTS AND LOOKING AT THE STANDARDS, I THOUGHT THIS WAS PRETTY POSSIBLE, ESPECIALLY WHEN I REMINDED THEM OF THE FACT OF IDAHO MOVING ANOTHER MAJOR CASE JUST A MONTH AGO AND TALKING ABOUT CHAD DAYBELL . THAT CASE WAS IN IDAHO AS WELL, AND MOVED TO L.A. COUNTY FROM WHERE IT WAS NOW. AND LISTENING TO THE ARGUMENTS AND THE DECISION AS WELL, JUST UNDERSTANDING THAT THE JUDGE IS SAYING YES TO THE FACT THAT IT WAS REASONABLY LIKELY THERE WOULD BE A PRESUMPTION OF PREJUDICE IF THE CASE REMAINED IN THIS VENUE BASED ON ALL OF THE PUBLICITY. BUT HE ALSO ARGUED THAT THE AREA OF CLAYTON COUNTY JUST ISN'T BIG ENOUGH THAT LOCAL POLICE HAVE TO COME INTO THE COURT TO HELP MONITOR CASE AS IT GOES ON. AND OF COURSE, THAT'S NOT BIG ENOUGH FOR A SUCH A MAJOR CASE. >> SO IT MADE SENSE TO MOVE IT. SO WHAT HAPPENS NEXT? WELL, JUDGE, WILL THE JUDGE REMAIN ON THE CASE? SO UNLIKELY THAT THE JUDGE REMAINED IN THE CASE. WHAT HAPPENS NEXT IS THE JUDGE HAS ACTUALLY ORDERED THIS CASE TO GO TO THE STATE SUPREME COURT TO THEN DECIDE WHERE IT SHOULD GO WITHIN THE STATE. MORE LIKELY THAN NOT THE CASE WHEN IT GETS TRANSFERRED. WE HAVE THE SAME PROSECUTORS AND THE SAME DEFENSE ATTORNEYS ,OF COURSE, BUT WHERE IT GOES WOULD PROBABLY GO TO A JUDGE IN THAT COUNTY. ALL RIGHT, BRIAN BUCKMIRE, GOOD TO SEE YOU. >> SO AN URGENT MANHUNT ON THE WAY RIGHT NOW IN KENTUCKY NOW STRETCHING INTO ITS THIRD DAY. POLICE ARE LOOKING FOR THE SUSPECT THAT THEY SAY SERIOUSLY INJURED AT LEAST FIVE DRIVERS ALONG A STRETCH OF INTERSTATE 75, JUST AN HOUR SOUTHEAST OF LEXINGTON. POLICE ARE ACTIVELY LOOKING FOR THIS MAN. HE IS IDENTIFIED 32-YEAR-OLD JOSEPH COUCH, WHO ALLEGEDLY HID IN HEAVILY WOODED AREA NEAR THE RAMP OFF OF EXIT 49 AND THEN SHOT AS MANY AS 12 VEHICLES ON THE HIGHWAY. SEVERAL PEOPLE WERE WOUNDED BY THE GUNFIRE. THANKFULLY, NO FATALITIES. SO FAR, AUTHORITIES SAY THAT THEY'VE RECOVERED A VEHICLE ASSOCIATED WITH COUCH AND AN AR-15 ASSAULT STYLE RIFLE. LET'S BRING IN OUR ALEX PRESHA . HE IS NEAR THE SCENE THERE IN LONDON, KENTUCKY, ALONG WITH OUR CONTRIBUTOR AND FORMER FBI AGENT BRAD GARRETT. SO, ALEX, LET'S TALK ABOUT JUST THE LATEST UPDATE. WHAT MORE DO WE KNOW FROM POLICE ABOUT THE SUSPECT AND JUST HOW ALL THIS. HEY, KYRA. SO WE WE GOT THIS WITHIN THE LAST HOUR. THIS IS THE ARREST WARRANT FOR ,32-YEAR-OLD JOSEPH COUCH. IT IS EIGHT PAGES LONG AND IT DETAILS WHAT HE WILL BE CHARGED WITH. HE FACES FIRST DEGREE ASSAULT CHARGES AND ATTEMPTED MURDER CHARGES FOR ALL FIVE OF THOSE VICTIMS THAT WERE INJURED IN SATURDAY'S INCIDENT. NOW, YOU MENTIONED ON THAT ON SATURDAY, WHENEVER HE WAS SHOOTING AT THESE CARS AT, LEAST 12 THAT WE KNOW OF THAT WERE HIT, THAT IS ACCORDING TO LAW ENFORCEMENT. NOW, THAT NUMBER HAS HAS HAS CHANGED OVER THE LAST 48 HOURS. AND THAT'S FRANKLY, BECAUSE IT'S A HIGHWAY IN MANY. THESE PEOPLE DIDN'T REALIZE THAT THEIR VEHICLE HAD BEEN STRUCK BY GUNFIRE UNTIL THEY GOT TO WHERE THEY WERE. WE TALKED TO AT LEAST ONE WOMAN WHO WAS IN TENNESSEE BEFORE SHE REALIZED THAT A BULLET HAD EITHER HIT OR RICOCHETED OFF OF CAR. AND SO THAT KIND OF GIVES YOU A SENSE AS TO JUST HOW EXPANSIVE THIS INVESTIGATION IS AND ALSO JUST HOW HARD IS FOR MANY OF THESE INVESTIGATORS IN LAW ENFORCEMENT TO FIND ABOUT THIS CASE. >> SO, BRAD, WE'RE ON THE THIRD DAY OF THIS SEARCH NOW. SEVERAL AGENCIES ARE INVOLVED, INCLUDINGHE FBI, HAVE DIFFICULT. DO YOU THINK THIS IS GOING TO BE I MEAN, WE'VE COVERED SEARCHES LIKE THIS A NUMBER OF TIMES AND THEY CAN FIND THEM WITHIN HOURS. >> SOMETIMES IT TAKES A COUPLE OF MONTHS. SO, YOU KNOW, THE REAL QUESTION, KYRA, IS, IS THIS PARTICULAR SUSPECT IN THE SEARCH AREA? YOU KNOW, I'M SORT OF UNCLEAR ABOUT THE TIMEFRAME OF THE AMOUNT OF LEAD TIME HE HAD AND OTHER WORDS, THE SHOOTING, I THINK, OCCURRED AFTERNOON. I THINK BY THE TIME THE POLICE GOT THERE, IT WAS ALMOST DARK. >> SO HE HAD SOME LEAD TIME, ASSUMING HE LEFT RIGHT AFTER THE SHOOTING. AND SO THE QUESTION IS HE LEFT HIS CAR BEHIND. DID HE HAVE OTHER AUTOMOBILE TRANSPORTATION PARKED SOMEPLACE ELSE? DID HE HIDE IN THIS AREA THAT THEY'RE SEARCHING? APPARENTLY, ACCORDING TO LAW ENFORCEMENT THERE? THERE'S A LOT OF CAVES AND TUNNELS. AND IT'S SO DENSELY POPULATED FROM A WOODED STANDPOINT AND UNDERGROWTH STANDPOINT, APPARENTLY EXTREMELY RURAL. I'VE DONE SEARCHES LIKE THAT. YOU HAVE TO SLOW AND GO BECAUSE YOU DON'T KNOW WHAT YOU'RE WALKING INTO. SO YOU HAVE TO BE REALLY CAREFUL AS YOU MOVE FORWARD. I DON'T KNOW IF THEY KNOW IF HE'S ARMED OR, NOT. SO TO ANSWER YOUR QUESTION, IT IT COULD HAPPEN WITHIN A REASONABLE AMOUNT OF TIME OR NOT. >> I MEAN, IF THERE'S AN EXTENSIVE CAVE AND TUNNEL SYSTEM AROUND THERE, YOU'RE GOING TO HAVE TO GET AN EXPERT THAT KNOWS THOSE THAT LIVES THERE TO HELP YOU MAYBE GUIDE THEY GO AND WHERE HE HE MIGHT POTENTIALLY BE. >> ALL RIGHT. SO ALEX MULTIPLE SCHOOL DISTRICTS IN THE REGION NOW ARE CLOSED WHILE THIS MANHUNT CONTINUES. WHAT ELSE IS THE COMMUNITY DOING JUST TO SORT OF DEAL WITH THIS AND STAY VIGILANT? >> WELL, TO YOUR POINT AND GOING INTO TODAY, WE KNEW THAT LAUREL COUNTY, WHICH IS WHERE THIS INCIDENT HAPPENED, THAT THAT SCHOOL WAS GOING TO BE CLOSING. BUT WE'VE HEARD THAT AT LEAST NINE DIFFERENT SCHOOL DISTRICTS AROUND THIS REGION HAVE HAVE CLOSED JUST OUT OF OUT OF OUT OF PRECAUTION. LISTEN, THEY'VE URGED THE COMMUNITY TO REMAIN VIGILANT. AND CERTAINLY, YOU KNOW, THERE IS A HEIGHTENED OF OF OF TENSENESS HERE AS AS PEOPLE REALIZE THAT, YES, THERE LAW ENFORCEMENT OPTIMISTIC THAT THEY HAVE THIS SUSPECT CONTAINED TO A PARTICULAR AREA . BUT THERE'S A THERE'S THERE'S A REALIZATION THAT IT IS POSSIBLE THAT HE MAY HAVE SLIPPED OUT. AND IF HE'S IN THIS COMMUNITY, PEOPLE CERTAINLY ARE ON GUARD FOR THAT. >> WELL, WE'LL STAY ON THE STORY FOR SURE. ALEX, THANK YOU BOTH. SOME MORE QUESTIONS ARE SWIRLING OF GEORGIA NOW AS TO WHETHER THE APALACHEE HIGH SCHOOL SHOOTING COULD HAVE BEEN AVOIDED. THE AUNT OF ACCUSED GUNMAN COLT GRAY IS NOW TELLING ABC NEWS IT WAS HIS OWN MOTHER WHO CALLED HER SON'S SCHOOL TO ACTUALLY WARN OF AN EXTREME EMERGENCY JUST 30 MINUTES BEFORE POLICE SAY THE 14 YEAR OLD GUNNED DOWN TWO CLASSMATES AND TWO TEACHERS. BUT SHERIFF'S OFFICE IS SHUTTING DOWN THOSE ALLEGATIONS, SAYING THAT THE SCHOOL DISTRICT CLAIMS THAT THEY HAD NO RECORD OF EVEN BEING NOTIFIED. OUR FAITH ABUBEY IS THERE ON THE GROUND IN GEORGIA. STILL WITH THE LATEST DEVELOPMENTS FAITH. >> NEW QUESTIONS ABOUT THERE WERE MISSED WARNING SIGNS AHEAD OF A GEORGIA SCHOOL SHOOTING THAT KILLED FOUR PEOPLE AND INJURED NINE OTHERS. >> THE SCHOOL IS SUPPOSED TO BE A SAFE PLACE FOR KIDS TO MOVE. >> THE ACCUSED GUNMAN'S AUNT TELLING ABC NEWS ROUGHLY 30 MINUTES BEFORE THE SHOOTING AT APALACHEE HIGH SCHOOL IN WINDER QUOTE, GRAY'S MOTHER CALLED A SCHOOL COUNSELOR TO WARN OF AN EXTREME EMERGENCY. HIS MOTHER, MARCI GRAY, SPEAKING TO NEWS OVERNIGHT, SAYING SHE TRIED TO GET HIM THE HELP HE NEEDED TO BRING THE AUNT TELLING "THE WASHINGTON POST" THAT DURING THE TEN MINUTE CONVERSATION, A COUNSELOR TOLD MARCI GRAY THAT HER SON HAD SPOKEN ABOUT A SCHOOL SHOOTING THE SAME MORNING. CLASSMATE LAYLA SCIARRA TELLING ABC NEWS THAT A SCHOOL ADMINISTRATOR CONFISCATED A BACKPACK OF A STUDENT WITH A SIMILAR NAME. >> A LITTLE BIT LATER, HE CAME BACK IN WITH HIS BAG AND HE SAID THAT THEY WEREN'T LOOKING FOR HIM. >> THEY WERE LOOKING FOR COAT. >> MOMENTS LATER, THE ACCUSED TEENAGER ALLEGEDLY OPENED FIRE OUTSIDE THE CLASSROOM DOOR . AND KIARA, THE ALLEGED SHOOTER AND HIS FATHER, ARE BOTH FACING MULTIPLE FELONY CHARGES RELATED TO THIS MASS SHOOTING. THEY HAVE NOT ENTERED A PLEA IN COURT. IN THE MEANTIME, THOUGH, SCHOOL DISTRICT OFFICIALS ARE NOT COMMENTING THE FAMILY'S ALLEGATIONS THAT THEY WERE WARNED. BUT THE BUREAU COUNTY SHERIFF I. WOW. ALL RIGHT. THANK YOU.

AND APPLE'S NEXT GENERATION, A NEW PHONE, NEW AIRPODS AND A LOT MORE. BUT IS IT WORTH THE MONEY? STRAIGHT TO KENTUCKY NOW WHERE THE STATE POLICE ARE HOLDING A PRESS CONFERENCE. HOPEFULLY WITH MORE INFORMATION ON THAT MANHUNT FOR 32-YEAR-OLD JOSEPH COUCH. OUR STRESS TO THE MAX AND LAW ENFORCEMENT IS WORKING TIRELESSLY TO BRING THIS TO A CALM AND A EASE FOR THEM. SO I'M JUST GOING TO GIVE YOU SOME MINOR DETAILS OF WHAT'S GOING ON THAT WE'VE BEEN DOING SINCE LATE LAST NIGHT AND A LITTLE BIT INTO THE. TRYING TO LOCATE THE SUBJECT. THIS IS GOING ON 48 HOURS, 48 HOURS. IT HAPPENED AROUND THE 49 MILE MARKER ON I-75. THE SEARCH FOR JOSEPH COUCH OF WOODBINE REMAINS. WE WOULD LIKE TO THANK OUR PARTNERS WITH THE FBI, THE ATF, LOCAL LAW ENFORCEMENT, FISH AND WILDLIFE, THE FORCE FOR SERVICE AND LONDON CITY POLICE AND LAUREL COUNTY SHERIFF'S DEPARTMENT. THAT IS VERY AMOUNT TO THE PEOPLE THAT ARE INVOLVED WITH THIS. WE HAVE CASS COUNTY SHERIFF'S OFFICE. WE HAVE OTHER POLICE DEPARTMENT THAT CAME AND VOLUNTEERED THEIR TIME AND THEIR EXPERTISE HELP WITH THIS JACKSON COUNTY SHERIFF'S OFFICE. SO JUST NOT THE KENTUCKY STATE POLICE. IT'S JUST NOT THE SHERIFF'S OFFICE. OUR FEDERAL PARTNERS. THERE ARE SO MANY PEOPLE AND IT IS YOU ALL YOU BEING THE NEWSPEOPLE THAT IS REACHING OUT. AND I APOLOGIZE TO YOU ALL, I CAN'T ANSWER. I RECALL EVERY EMAIL. THAT'S WHY WE'VE DONE THIS AT ONE LOCATION AT ONE TIME. JUST THE AMOUNT OF CALLS AND, EMAILS THAT I'VE GOT, THERE'S NO WAY I CAN ANSWER IT. SO I APOLOGIZE TO YOU ALL. BUT THANK YOU ALL FOR GETTING OUT AS MUCH INFORMATION AS YOU CAN AND CORRECTING FORMATION. THIS MANHUNT HAS BECOME A METHODICAL EFFORT, SIMILAR LIKE A HIDE AND SEEK. WE'RE FOCUSED ON PROTECTING THE RESIDENTS AND THEIR HOMES AND THE BUSINESSES. DENNIS CRITICAL TIME. OUR GOAL IS TO APPLY STEADY AND WEARING MR. CROUCHED DOWN. THE LONGER IS IN THE WOODS. YOU KNOW LIKE LAST NIGHT IT IT GOT PRETTY CHILLY AND TODAY IT'S GOT KIND OF HUMID HOT. HOPEFULLY HE HAS NO WATER AND NOTHING TO EAT. AND JUST TIME THAT WE WILL WEAR HIM AND PUTTING PRESSURE ON HIM WITH CONSTANT STEADY AIR. OUR OUR HELICOPTERS FLYING OVER, DRONES FLYING OVER DOGS SRT IN THE IN THE WOODS LOOKING CARS RUNNING UP DOWN THE INTERSTATE JUST, THINGS LIKE THAT. IT'S PUTTING PRESSURE ON HIM AND HOPEFULLY HE'S HE EVENTUALLY JUST WALK OUT OF THE WOODS AND GAVE HIMSELF UP. THAT'S WHAT WE HOPE WILL HAPPEN IN THIS SCENARIO. WE'VE UTILIZED ALL KINDS OF TECHNOLOGY AND SEARCHING. LIKE I SAID, WE USE HELICOPTERS, WE USE DRONES, SPECIAL RESPONSE TEAMS, NOT JUST FROM THE KENTUCKY STATE POLICE. WE'VE HAD THE LA COUNTY SHERIFF'S DEPARTMENT WITH OUR SPECIAL RESPONSE TEAM. WE'VE HAD THE FBI, WE'VE HAD THE ATF WE'VE HAD NUMEROUS LOCAL AND SMALL AGENCIES THAT VOLUNTEERED THEIR SPECIAL RESPONSE PEOPLE TO COME AND ALSO ASSIST IN THIS AND CLEARLY, IF WE CONTINUE TO WORK TOGETHER, HOPEFULLY WE'LL COME OUT WITH A RESOLUTION IN THIS. THIS IS A CONSTANT COMMUNICATION EFFORT. SO PEOPLE, YOU KNOW, ASK, WHY AREN'T WE JUST GOING IN THERE? YOU KNOW, IF YOU'VE FOLLOWED MY FACEBOOK IN THE LAST HOUR OR SO, WE HAVE GAVE YOU A PHOTOGRAPH OF THE AREA. IT'S NOT LIKE GOING OVER TO THIS BUSINESS AND LOOKING FOR SOMEBODY IN THERE. IT'S NOT LIKE GOING TO A FOOTBALL FIELD AND TRYING TO FIND SOMEBODY BEHIND THE BLEACHERS. WE ARE IN THE DANIEL BOONE NATIONAL FORCE AND THIS IS THOUSANDS AND THOUSANDS OF ACRES. AND I STATED LAST NIGHT, IT'S KIND OF LIKE A JUNGLE. WELL, IT IS LIKE A JUNGLE AND WE HAVE CLIFF BEDS. WE HAVE SINKHOLES. WE HAVE CAVES WHERE CULVERTS THAT GO UNDER THE INTERSTATE. WE HAVE CREEKS AND RIVERS AND THE DENSE BRUSH. I MEAN, IT'S NOT SOMETHING I CAN JUST TAKE MY DOG FOR A NATURAL WALK THROUGH THIS. THERE ARE PATHS. BUT WHEN WE'RE LOOKING FOR SOMEBODY WE HAVE TO GO THROUGH THOSE DENSE AREAS. WE HAVE WE GOT TO GO AND MAKE SURE NO ROCK IS UNTURNED TO FIND NOT JUST HIM, BUT FIND EVIDENCE. AND WHEN YOU DO THESE THINGS, ALL THE PEOPLE INVOLVED, YOU GOT TO HAVE COMMUNICATION. THERE'S NOT A DIRECT LINE WHEN YOU FIRST GET THERE, EVEN MAYBE THE FIRST DAY THAT THE FBI CAN TALK TO THE STATE POLICE. THE STATE POLICE CAN TALK TO THE SHERIFF'S DEPARTMENT. WE HAVE TO TIE THOSE NETWORKS TOGETHER AND GO OUT AND DO GREAT SEARCHES, FIND CERTAIN THAT YOU'RE GOING TO GO AND NOT TRACK IN BEHIND EACH OTHER AND. ALSO, YOU'VE GOT TO KNOW WHO'S TO YOUR LEFT UNTIL YOUR RIGHT AND MAKE SURE SAFE. AND YOU GO VERY SLOWLY, BECAUSE NOT JUST YOU'RE LOOKING FOR HIM, YOU'RE LOOKING FOR EVIDENCE, YOU'RE LOOKING AND USUALLY WE WAS ABLE TO OBTAIN SOME EVIDENCE THAT THE SHERIFF'S DEPARTMENT IS ON THEIR INVESTIGATION SIDE OF IT. AND I'LL EXPLAIN THAT. A LOT OF PEOPLE ARE KIND OF CONFUSED, LIKE, WHAT'S THE STATE POLICE AND ROLE? WHAT THE FBI ZERO. THE SHERIFF'S DEPARTMENT. THE SHERIFF'S DEPARTMENT IS WORKING THE CRIMINAL PART OF THIS. THAT MEANS THERE WAS A ACTIVE SHOOTER ON THE INTERSTATE THAT THAT HARMED PEOPLE. THEY SHOT PEOPLE. THEY BE PRESENTING THIS CASE TO THE COMMONWEALTH ATTORNEY HERE IN LAUREL COUNTY. AND IF FOR SOME REASON THE FEDS THINK THERE'S A FEDERAL CHARGE OR THEY BELIEVE THAT TO BE A FEDERAL CHARGE, THEY CAN STEP AND HELP THE LA COUNTY SHERIFF'S DEPARTMENT WITH THAT. THE KENTUCKY STATE POLICE, ALONG WITH THE FBI, THE SHERIFF'S DEPARTMENT, WE HAVE ASKED TO STEP IN TO HELP WITH THE APPREHENSION AND MANHUNT OF MR. COUCH. THAT MEANS WE'RE BOOTS ON THE GROUND RIGHT NOW. THEY THEY INITIALLY GOT THE COMPLAINT AND HAVE WORKED TIRELESSLY OUT THERE, BUT THEY GOT TO HAVE A BREAK. THEY GOT TO BE ABLE TO GO INVESTIGATE. THEY GOT TO BE ABLE TO GET SEARCH WARRANTS. THEY TO BE ABLE TO GO HOME AND SEE THEIR FAMILY AND GET AN ARREST. SO THEY THINK STRAIGHTLY. AND THAT'S WHY WE UTILIZE THE KENTUCKY STATE POLICE. WE HAVE 16 POLICE. I SAID LAST NIGHT, WE HAVE RESOURCES AND WE HAVE A KENTUCKY STATE COMMISSIONER. THAT IS AMAZING. HE IS GOING TO GET US THE RESOURCES IN LAUREL COUNTY TO CONTINUE TO LOOK FOR MR. COUCH TIRELESSLY. AND SOMETIMES THESE INVESTIGATIONS WE WE HOPE THAT HE'S STILL IN THAT AREA. WE HOPE THAT WE'VE GOT IT CONTAINED. BUT WE ALL KNOW THEY DON'T ALWAYS IN THAT WAY. SO WE'RE GOING TO CONTINUE IF OUR SEARCH GETS BROADER, IT GETS WIDER, IT LEADS TO MORE MILES. YOU KNOW WE'RE GOING TO GO EVERY DAY AND TRY TO FIND HIM. WE'VE GOT HIM ENTERED IN NCIC. THAT MEANS IF HE'S NOT IN THIS AREA AND HE'S WALKING DOWN THE ROAD, SOME DEPUTY IN MADISON COUNTY OR WHITLEY COUNTY OR EVEN IN TENNESSEE GETS OUT WITH HIM AND, YOU KNOW, SEES SOME GUY THAT'S JUST WALKING DOWN AND FITS THE DESCRIPTION. YOU KNOW, HOPEFULLY THEY'LL USE CAUTION. WE'VE SET ALL THE INTELLIGENCE OUT TO THEM, OTHER AGENCIES. SOHEN THEY SEEM LIKE, SAY, THIS GUY FITS THE DESCRIPTION, THEY CAN USE CAUTION LIKE IN RUNNING AND MAYBE THAT THAT'S THAT'S HOW WE FIND HIM. YOU KNOW, WE HOPE HE'S STILL BUT HE MIGHT NOT BE. AND BUT WE'RE GOING TO TAKE ALL THE LEADS WE'RE GOING TO WE WANT THE CITIZENS TO CALL IN ON EVERYTHING. IF YOU SEE SOMETHING THAT LOOKS STRANGE IN YOUR AREA OR YOU LIVE OUT, IF YOU COME HOME AND YOUR DAUGHTERS DON'T SEE MARK, THAT'S HOW YOU LEFT IT. YOU KNOW, BACK OUT AND CALL SOMEBODY IF IF YOU'RE AT HOME, DON'T BE ALONE. ALWAYS HAVE YOUR CELL, HAVE A PHONE, ASSESS, WORKING, CHECK ON YOUR NEIGHBORS, CHECK ON YOUR ELDERLY NEIGHBORS. MAKE SURE THAT THAT YOU'VE HEARD FROM THEM. BE A GOOD NEIGHBOR AND JUST ON THEM, OF COURSE, THEY ARE JUST CHECKING ON YOU. MAKE SURE EVERYTHING'S OKAY. CAUSE IN THE ROCK CASTLE AREA, WHERE WE DO HAVE RESIDENTS THERE'S A LOT OF HOMEMADE LIKE WHERE PEOPLE LIVE HERE THAT COME IN FROM AREAS TO CAMP. SO MAYBE THEY DON'T HAVE PHONES IN THOSE AND THOSE LITTLE BUILDINGS OR SHACK OR CAMPERS. SO IF PEOPLE CASTLE THAT NO, THESE PEOPLE REACH OUT AND TALK TO THEM, JUST SAY, HEY, JUST CHECKING ON YOU, THEY WON'T GET YOUR BUSINESS. THIS ONE CHECK ON YOU IF YOU HEAR YOUR DOGS, YOU KNOW, MAKING, YOU KNOW, BARKING LATE AT NIGHT, YOU KNOW, CALL, CHECK YOUR PHONES IF YOU HAVE THAT TECHNOLOGY TO SEE IF SOMEBODY IS ON A DEER CAMERA OR YOUR CAMERAS, YOUR RING CAMERAS, YOU KNOW, WHEN YOU GO UP FOR YOU GO HOME, JUST SCROLL THROUGH. MAKE SURE IF YOU SEE SOMETHING THAT DON'T LOOK OF LOOKS WEIRD, SOMEBODY THROUGH THE YARD, IT COULD BE NOTHING, BUT IT COULD BE SOMETHING. AND IT COULD GIVE US A LEAD TO JUST DRIVE DOWN THERE. AND LIKE I SAID, HE COULD TURN HIMSELF IN OR IT COULD IT COULD GET WORSE. AND HOPEFULLY IT DOESN'T. BUT DEALING WITH COMMUNICATION. PARKER SAID EARLY, EVERYBODY ON THE GROUND IS COMMUNICATING. HE'S GOT TO BE ABLE TO TALK TO THE HELICOPTERS. HELICOPTERS GOT TO BE ABLE TO SEE THEM AND PUT EYES ON THEM BECAUSE IF YOU IF YOU HELICOPTER SEASON. BUT HE CAN'T TELL THE PERSON ON THE GROUND WHAT HE'S LOOKING FOR. IT'S KIND OF USELESS. AND THEN WE HAVE TO RELAY THAT STUFF BACK TO OUR COMMAND POST, WHICH RELAYS AT THE POST . AND IT KIND OF GOES IN EVERY DIRECTION. WE GET PEOPLE HEADING THAT WAY . SO COMMUNICATION IS BIG, IT'S BIG AND IT'S GOT BE THE RIGHT COMMUNICATION AND THAT'S WHY THESE THINGS TAKE SO LONG. OUR PRIORITY IS THE SAFETY OF EVERYONE INVOLVED. WE ARE COMMITTED TO MAKE SURE THAT THERE IS NO HARM TO ANY BODY IN THE COMMUNITY AND ALSO TO OUR FIRST RESPONDERS ON THE GROUND. OUR JOB IS TO MAKE SURE EVERYONE, ONE OF OUR PEOPLE THAT'S IN UNIFORM GOES HOME TO THEIR FAMILY, AND THAT'S OUR FIRST PRIORITY. AND WE HAVE TO GO SLOW AND LIKE A SNAIL, THAT'S WHAT WE'RE GOING TO DO BECAUSE WE DO NOT WANT TO ANYBODY IN OUR LINE OF WORK OR ANYBODY, THIS COMMUNITY TO BE HARMED. >> LIKE I SAID EARLIER, MR. COUCH IS ENTERED IN NCIC. WE ENCOURAGE ANY TIPS TO COME. PLEASE CALL US. PLEASE CALL US. I GUESS THAT WILL LEAVE. OH, I WILL CLARIFY SOME THINGS FOR Y'ALL. THAT WAS KIND OF EARLY IN THE INVESTIGATION ABOUT HIS MILITARY SERVICE. HE WAS IN THE MILITARY, BUT IT WAS NOT THE ARMY NATIONAL GUARD. IT WAS ARMY RESERVES. SO HE'S BEEN DISCHARGED WITH THE ARNOLD DISCHARGE. SO I WANTED TO CLARIFY THAT SO I CAN OPEN UP THE FLOOR FOR QUESTIONS FOR ME OR ANYBODY IN BEHIND ME. >> HAVE YOU SEEN ANY EVIDENCE TODAY THAT HE IS STILL IN THE WOODS AND STILL ALIVE? SO WE STILL HAVE PEOPLE COME ON TO LOOK THIS WAY, SIR. >> I'M SORRY. WE STILL HAVE PEOPLE IN THE AREA AND WE WILL REMAIN IN THE AREA UNTIL WE CAN'T FIND HIM. THIS IS VERY SLOW AND YOU'VE GOT TO LOOK. THE TEMPERATURE HAS GOT UP A LITTLE BIT TODAY. SO OUR PEOPLE ARE CONSTANTLY THERE SEARCHING, ARE SWITCHING GRIDS, YOU KNOW, ATVS, FOUR WHEELERS. AND, YOU KNOW, I THINK IT'S HURTING THINGS THAT PEOPLE OUT THERE HUNTING. SO WE ENCOURAGE PEOPLE IN THE COMMUNITY, IF YOU'RE GOING TO BE HUNTING, PLEASE DON'T BE OUT AT CROMER'S RIDGE AND LIVINGSTON AREA. PLEASE STAY AWAY FROM THAT AREA FOR A COUPLE OF DAYS UNTIL WE COME. RESOLVE AND PEOPLE OUT IN THE COUNTY DON'T DON'T HAVE SOMEBODY. I'M WANT TO SAVE THE WORLD. I'M GOING TO GO OUT AND GO FIND HIM MYSELF BECAUSE NOT ONLY COULD COULD YOU GET HARMED ,YOU COULD GET KILLED. AND WE DON'T WANT THAT TO HAPPEN. AND SO AT THIS TIME, WE HAVE NOT THE EVIDENCE HAS NOT COME THAT WE HAVE LOCATED HIM, BUT IT'S VERY SLOW. IT'S A VERY SLOW PROCESS. THE VICTIMS, YOU KNOW, THAT'S BEEN LITTLE CONFUSING IN THE EARLY STAGES OF THIS. STILL FIVE BULLETS ON THE HIGHWAY THERE. CAR CRASH. >> UNDERSTAND? AND WHAT CAN YOU TELL US ABOUT THAT? SO THAT THAT WOULD BE PART OF THE SHERIFF'S DEPARTMENT'S INVESTIGATION. AND I APOLOGIZE FOR THAT. I KNOW. AND PIECES, BUT NOT EVERYTHING. AND HOW MANY VEHICLES HAVE BEEN HIT? CAR WRECKS? I DON'T KNOW THAT WE'RE HERE TO TO FIND MR. COUCH. AND THAT'S THAT'S THAT'S OUR PRIMARY FOCUS. NOW, IF WE INFORMATION THAT HELPS THE SHERIFF'S DEPARTMENT, WE'RE GOING TO SHARE THAT INFORMATION, SOURCES THAT ARE SHARING INFORMATION WITH US. IT'S VAST. I MEAN, IT'S -- IT'S MOVING. YOU KNOW, PEOPLE ARE LIKE, OH, WAIT, YOU AIN'T GETTING INFORMATION. TRUST ME, WE'RE GETTING INFORMATION TOO MUCH. >> IT'S OVERLOAD. SOMETIMES THOSE CRIMINALS. >> WHAT'S THE RELATIONSHIP? I APOLOGIZE. THE FIRST TIME I'VE HEARD THAT AND I WASN'T UPDATED. I DIDN'T GET THE SEARCH WARRANTS. THE SHERIFF'S DEPARTMENT. I'M SORRY. YEAH, I'VE GOT TO USE THEIR GUT. IS THERE ANY EVIDENCE YOU'VE SEEN THE EVIDENCE OUT THERE SAYING THERE WAS ANYBODY INVOLVED HELPING THIS GUY OTHER THAN HIM AT THIS TIME? >> YOU KNOW, THAT'S PART OF THE INVESTIGATION. PARTIALLY. I HAVE IT. AND I DON'T KNOW IF THE KENTUCKY STATE POLICE HAS OUR JOB IS JUST TO TRY TO LOCATE THIS. IT'S SOMETHING YOU MIGHT BE ABLE TO ASK ANOTHER REPRESENTATIVE BEHIND ME, BUT TODAY IS US FINDING THIS MR. COUCH. YES, SIR. HOW CAN YOU HELP TO EXPAND THE SEARCH BEYOND THE FOURTH? >> WELL, WE'RE GOING TO WE'RE GOING TO KEEP GOING. I MEAN, IT WILL PROBABLY EXPAND AND THAT'S JUST THE JOB WE SIGNED UP FOR. WE'RE GOING TO GO AS FAR AS WE CAN GO UNTIL SOMETHING LEADS US SOMEWHERE ELSE. AND YOU KNOW THIS LIKE SOMETHING WE'RE GOING TO PACK UP AND GO HOME BECAUSE THE CITIZENS OF LAUREL COUNTY, THE CITIZENS COMMONWEALTH FOR ROCK COUNTY, THEY EXPECT THAT OUT OF US. AND THIS IS NOT EASY. IT'S TIRESOME, YOU KNOW, AND LET ME ALSO SAY THIS, YOU KNOW, CRIME AS IT HAPPENED IN LAUREL COUNTY TODAY, IT'S HAPPENING EVERYWHERE. SO, YOU KNOW, THE SHERIFF'S DEPARTMENT, KENTUCKY STATE POLICE, WE HAVE TO ANSWER CALLS AND OTHER COMMUNITIES EVEN IN THIS COUNTY. AND SO WE'RE GOING TO CONTINUE TO ANSWER THOSE CALLS. DON'T DON'T HESITATE TO CALL US BECAUSE YOU THINK YOU'RE BOTHERING US CAUSE WE'RE THIS AS WELL. WE'VE GOT RESOURCES THAT, YOU KNOW, SURROUNDING PLACES HARLAN HAS OR MADISON, COLUMBIA. WE'RE GOING TO CONTINUE TO ANSWER THOSE FROM HERE. MANY SCHOOLS ARE CLOSED TODAY. ARE YOU ALL RIGHT? BOTTOM LINE, THEY'RE OUT OF LINE IN KENTUCKY. NOT A LOT OF NEW INFORMATION, JUST THE FACT THAT THE SEARCH IS STILL ON FOR THIS SUSPECT. 32-YEAR-OLD JOSEPH COUCH. POLICE ACTIVELY LOOKING FOR HIM THROUGHOUT NATIONAL FOREST THERE JUST OUTSIDE OF LONDON. AND HE'S WANTED FOR SERIOUSLY INJURING AT LEAST FIVE DRIVERS. NOW ALONG THE STRETCH OF I-75. THAT'S JUST AN HOUR SOUTHEAST OF LEXINGTON, KENTUCKY. DID FIND OUT APPARENTLY THAT THIS SUSPECT IS ARMY. SO HE HAS HAD EXPERIENCE WITH A WEAPON THERE DOING SEARCHES, LOOKING NOT JUST FOR HIM, BUT FOR EVIDENCE AND WHAT BASICALLY WHAT WE'RE HEARING FROM LAW ENFORCEMENT NOW, THEY'RE JUST HOPING KEEP A STEADY PRESSURE AND WEAR HIM DOWN, BECAUSE IF HE'S HIDING OUT IN THIS VAST AREA OF THE NATIONAL FOREST, THOUSANDS, THOUSANDS OF ACRES THEY'RE THINKING AT SOME POINT, YOU KNOW, HE WON'T HAVE FOOD, HE WON'T HAVE WATER, AND HE'LL JUST TURN HIMSELF IN OR, YOU KNOW, SIMPLY HE JUST WON'T MAKE IT. BRAD GARRETT FORMER FBI HAS BEEN INVOLVED WITH PLENTY OF SEARCHES LIKE. THIS HE DOES MAKE A GOOD POINT, BRAD. IT'S A LOT OF ACREAGE. IT'S GOING TO BE PRETTY HARD TO SURVIVE ALL THE CAVES, THE CULVERTS THE DENSE BRUSH, THE RIVERS, YOU KNOW, AND THE WEATHER IS CHANGING IF HE DOESN'T HAVE FOOD OR WATER. BUT AND THEY SEEM TO BE PRETTY CONFIDENT THAT HE'S SOMEWHERE IN THE NATIONAL FOREST RIGHT NOW HIDING OUT. >> I THINK THEY BELIEVE THAT, KYRA, BECAUSE THEY WERE ABLE TO START LOOKING FOR HIM IN A VERY SHORT PERIOD OF TIME. AND I ASSUME THAT THEY CLOSED OFF ALL OF THE SURROUNDING ROADS AROUND THE DANIEL BOONE NATIONAL FOREST. SO, AGAIN, THAT'S NEVER PERFECT . YOU'RE IN A WILDERNESS THAT'S BIG TIME RURAL AND BIG TIME. DIFFICULT TO EVEN SEE ANY DISTANCE AT ALL. BUT YOU LOOK AT OF THIS TIMELINE, WE KNOW, IS THAT IF HE BOUGHT THE AIR 15 THE SAME DAY OF THE SHOOTING AND HE BOUGHT THE AMMUNITION, THE DAY ,THAT WOULD SUGGEST THAT THIS REALLY WASN'T PLANNED OUT TO ANY YOU KNOW, IN OTHER WORDS, DID HE HAVE FOOD STAGED? DID HE KNOW WHERE HE WAS GOING? >> MAYBE. BUT IT DOESN'T HAVE THAT FEEL TO IT, WHICH COULD BE TO LAW ENFORCEMENT'S ADVANTAGE, BECAUSE IF THE OFFICER WAS CORRECTED TO SELL THE PRESS CONFERENCE, YOU KNOW, NO FOOD, NO. YOU KNOW, HOW LONG WILL THE LAST SHORT OF HIM BE IN A HE'S NOT GOING TO LAST A LONG TIME. BUT, YOU KNOW, STILL BIG BECAUSE THE FACT IS HE'S STILL ALIVE. >> AND OR IS HE OUTSIDE THEIR SEARCH AREA? THE PROBLEM WITH PEOPLE WHO THEN GET AWAY, LET'S SAY HE GOT OUTSIDE THE SEARCH AREA. >> WHAT IS THIS MEANS TO ANYWHERE? DOES HE HAVE MONEY? DOES HE HAVE CREDIT CARDS? IS THERE ANOTHER CAR IS SOMEBODY HELPING HIM? IT BECOMES REALLY COMPLICATED TO BE A AND I JUST WHAT LITTLE WE KNOW ABOUT THIS GUY, I DON'T I'M NOT CONVINCED HE'S GOT ACT TOGETHER ON HOW HE COULD DO THAT IN A SUCCESSFUL WAY. >> SO THE REAL PROBLEM HERE IS GOING TO BE BECAUSE OF THE TERRAIN, BECAUSE OF THE CAVES AND SO FORTH AND SO ON IT COULD REALLY TAKE A LONG TIME TO SEARCH THIS OUT. AND IF PASSED AWAY, IT COULD BE EVEN LONGER, UNLESS HE IS SOMEPLACE THEY WALK UPON HIM. >> GOT IT. WE'RE GOING TO KEEP TRACKING IT. BRAD, APPRECIATE YOUR HELP. >> ALSO COMING UP, THE LATEST TROPICAL STORM CHURNING IN THE GULF OF MEXICO. IT'S ARRIVED.

THIS WEEK, THE NATIONAL HURRICANE CENTER FORECASTING FRANCINE JUST GOING TO KEEP GROWING BEFORE MAKING LANDFALL IN LOUISIANA. MEANWHILE, A STATE OF EMERGENCY IS IN EFFECT FOR BERNARDINO COUNTY, CALIFORNIA, BECAUSE OF A FAST MOVING FIRE. SCORCHING TEMPS, MAKING THE FIGHT THE LINE FIRE THAT MORE DIFFICULT, AS OFFICIALS SAY THAT AT LEAST 17,000 ACRES HAVE NOW BURNED. OUR METEOROLOGIST THEODORE TRACKING IT ALL FOR US. OKAY, LET'S START WITH THIS STORM IN THE GULF COAST. WHAT CAN WE EXPECT WITH REGARD TO ITS STRENGTH AND ITS PATH? SOMARA ALL RIGHT, KYRA. SO THIS STORM, TROPICAL STORM FRANCINE, WHICH IT IS NOW, IS ACTUALLY SITTING OVER WATERS THAT ARE ABNORMALLY WARM. SO WE ARE GOING TO SEE SOME INTENSIFICATION HERE. IT'S ALREADY MADE IT TO A TROPICAL STORM. AND BY TOMORROW, AS EARLY AS TOMORROW, THIS COULD REACH HURRICANE STATUS. IT'S NOT UNTIL WEDNESDAY THAT WE'RE ANTICIPATING A LANDFALL ALONG THE LOUISIANA COASTLINE. >> SO HERE'S THE INTENT OR THE FORECASTED TRAJECTORY. THIS HERE IS CALLED THE CONE OF UNCERTAINTY. AND THAT MEANS THE CENTER OF THE STORM FALL ANYWHERE INSIDE OF IT. THAT'S LAKE CHARLES. THAT'S THE BORDER BETWEEN AND LOUISIANA. OR IT COULD FALL AS FAR EAST AS NEW ORLEANS. NONETHELESS, WE KNOW THAT IT'S ANTICIPATED TO STRENGTHEN TO CAT ONE STATUS, AND AFTER WHICH IT MOVES INLAND. AND THEN IT COULD PUSH FORWARD TO PLACES LIKE ARKANSAS AND MEMPHIS. THOSE WOULD BE THE REMNANTS OF THE STORM. OKAY. SO LET'S TIME OUT. 12 P.M. TOMORROW, CENTRAL TIME. NOTICE WHERE THE STORM SYSTEM IS OFF THE COAST, PORT ISABEL THERE. >> AND THE NORTHERN TIER OF THIS, THOSE RAIN BANDS ARE WHIPPING INTO HOUSTON, BEAUMONT, LAKE CHARLES, BATON ROUGE, NEW ORLEANS. AND THAT'S TOMORROW AFTERNOON. >> THEN BY WEDNESDAY MORNING, 6 A.M. AND SITTING JUST OFF THE COAST OF CAMERON AND AS WE PUSH THROUGH WEDNESDAY AFTERNOON, EARLY AFTERNOON, EVEN LUNCH TIMEFRAME, WE COULD START TO SEE THIS MAKING LANDFALL JUST TO THE EAST OF LAKE CHARLES. SO THIS IS BY WEDNESDAY AT 8 P.M.. IT'S ALREADY DRIVEN NORTH OF BATON ROUGE. SO IT'S MOVING RELATIVELY QUICKLY. AND THE BIGGEST THREAT THAT WE'LL SEE WITH THIS FLASH FLOODING, SIGNIFICANT FLASH FLOODING ALONG I-10 AS WELL IS LIFE THREATENING STORM SURGE KYRA. ALL RIGHT, SOMARA THEODORE APPRECIATE IT. THANKS SO MUCH. AND COMING UP, IT'S GLOW TIME FOR APPLE AS IT UNVEILS THE NEXT GENERATION OF IPHONES. SHOULD YOU BUY ONE? WELL, WE'LL HAVE THE DETAILS NEXT NEXT. >> WHAT DOES IT TAKE TO BE THE MOST WATCHED NEWSCAST IN AMERICA AMERICA? AN OPERATION LIKE THIS. COMBAT OPERATIONS ARE WE'RE APPROACHING THE GATE NOW. MILITANTS CAME IN FROM FOUR OR FIVE DIFFERENT DIRECTIONS. OPERATION NUCLEAR REACTORS. WE HAVE A COUPLE LOADED AND READY TO GO. THE HOUSE IS DESTROYED WITH THE FLAG. THERE'S NOT A TEAR IN AND OUT OF CARE. HOW IMPORTANT IS THIS LABEL RIGHT HERE MADE FOR YOU AS THEY LOOK AT YOUR SMILE? >> YOU'RE PROUD OF IT? I LOVE IT. GREAT WORK. HI. WHERE ARE YOU? HOW ARE YOU? >> ISRAEL. DAVID, THERE'S. YES. YES I'M DAVID. >> YOU ARE? I KNOW YOU ARE. YOU DO EVERY NIGHT. >> ABC'S WORLD NEWS TONIGHT WITH DAVID MUIR IS AMERICA'S MOST WATCHED NEWSCAST. >> IF WERE COMING OF AGE IN THE 1980S, THE BRAT PACK WAS HERE. >> THE CENTER OF YOUR CULTURAL AWARENESS. BUT FOR THOSE OF US EXPERIENCING IT FROM THE INSIDE THE BRAT PACK WAS SOMETHING VERY DIFFERENT. IF YOU HAVE BRAT PACK MAY NOT EXIST. >> WOULD YOU? >> I CREATED THE BRAT PACK. WHAT A DISASTER. WHY DIDN'T WE TAKE IT AS AN OFFENSE, MAKE A SINGLE THE BEATLES OR ANYTHING? >> WELL, WE DIDN'T SELL SHEA STADIUM 1985. I THINK WE COULD HAVE CUT IT? >> WHY DO SO MANY PEOPLE START THEIR DAY HERE? FROM ABC NEWS? THIS IS START HERE TO BE IN THE KNOW 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 R. MURROW AND SEE WHY THE NEW YORK TIMES CALLS IT A NEWS PODCAST WORTH LISTENING TO START HERE. ABC NEWS MAKE IT YOUR FIRST LISTEN. >> NOW, THAT'S A PART OF THE STORY THAT YOU DIDN'T SEE COMING. WHEREVER YOU GET YOUR PODCASTS, START HERE. REPORTING FROM SAN JUAN, PUERTO RICO IN THE PATH OF TROPICAL STORM I'M IKE EJIOCHI AND WHEREVER THE STORY IS, WE'LL TAKE YOU THERE NOW SINGING ABC NEWS LIVE. >> GLAD YOU'RE STREAMING WITH US SO GET READY FOR APPLE'S NEXT GENERATION. >> IT'S HOSTING ITS ANNUAL EVENT IN CALIFORNIA, UNVEILING NEW VERSIONS, THE IPHONE, AIRPODS AND A LOT MORE. THE COMPANY ALSO MAKING HISTORY ITS FIRST LINEUP OF NEW PHONES BUILT FOR A.I. OR ELIZABETH SCHULZE HAS ALL THE LATEST FOR US. >> OH, BOY. JUST WHEN YOU JUST JUST WHEN YOU'RE GETTING USED TO WHAT YOU HAVE. THEN THEY YET ANOTHER IPHONE FEATURES MORE THINGS TO LEARN, MORE THINGS TO LEARN AND A LOT MORE TO LEARN ON THE IPHONE, WHICH IS STILL LIKE VERY TO A LOT OF PEOPLE WHEN IT COMES TO THE DAY TO DAY. USE THIS IDEA THAT YOUR SMARTPHONE IS KIND OF INTEGRATED WITH THE WAY I THINK MOST PEOPLE THINK. WHAT DOES THAT ACTUALLY LOOK LIKE? SO APPLE KIND OF GAVE US A GLIMPSE TODAY. IT RELEASED THE IPHONE 16. THE WHEN YOU LOOK AT THIS PHONE HERE A COUPLE BIG DIFFERENCES. FIRST OF ALL, JUST TO POINT OUT, THE SCREEN'S BIGGER THAN IT'S EVER BEEN. SO UNFORTUNATELY, LIKE WHEN YOU TRY TO FIT IT INTO YOUR BAG AND YOU ALREADY HAVE TROUBLE WITH THIS NEW PHONE, IT WOULD BE EVEN BIGGER ON THE DISPLAY. THEY ALSO SAY IT'S MORE SCRATCH RESISTANT, WHICH COULD BE A GOOD THING. AND THEN YOU'LL ALSO NOTICE THAT THERE WAS THERE'S ONLY GOING TO BE TWO CAMERAS, TWO LENSES IN THE BACK, WHICH A RETURN TO KIND OF THAT OLDER PHONE DEVICE. BUT THEY SAID THE CAMERA IS EVEN BETTER. SO WHAT DOES THAT MEAN FOR A.I.? THE EXAMPLE, FOR EXAMPLE, THEY SAID, IS IF YOU'RE OUT AND YOU WANT TO YOU SEE YOU'RE OUT IN THE STREET AND YOU SEE A DOG, YOU DO NOT RECOGNIZE WHAT TYPE OF BREED OF DOG THAT IS. YOU CAN TAKE A PHOTO OF IT AND YOUR PHONE WILL ACTUALLY JUST TELL YOU AUTOMATICALLY WHAT IT IS. THAT'S A OF EXAMPLE OF GENERATIVE AI AT USE. ANOTHER EXAMPLE WOULD BE AS IF YOU WANT TO CREATE A CUSTOM EMOJI. YOU CAN JUST TELL YOUR PHONE, CREATE EMOJI WITH X, Y, Z, AND THEN IT JUST DOES THAT AUTOMATICALLY. SO THE IS THAT IT'S GOING TO KIND OF INTEGRATE THESE GENERATIVE A.I. FEATURES INTO THE DAY TO DAY, BUT ALSO BE USED WITH SIRI, WITH THE VOICE ASSISTANT. TRY TO UP WITH THOSE DAY TO DAY USE CASES SO THAT A.I. IS MORE PART OF YOUR. I THINK THE KEY QUESTION HERE, KYRA, IS DOES THAT IS THAT A SELLING FOR PEOPLE YET? I MEAN, DO THEY REALLY WANT THOSE FEATURES? DO THEY SEE THAT AS SOMETHING THAT WOULD ADD A LOT OF BENEFITS TO THEIR DAY TO DAY LIVES WHEN WE'RE ALREADY TRYING TO KEEP UP WITH A LOT OF THE EXISTING TECHNOLOGY? PEOPLE HAVE NOT BEEN UPGRADING THEIR IPHONES AT NEARLY AS FAST OF A PACE THAT THEY WERE IN THE PAST. REMEMBER, FOR A WHILE THERE WAS THIS TIME WHERE I KNEW THAT THE NEW IPHONE WOULD COME OUT, PEOPLE WOULD LINE UP. THEY'RE DEFINITELY DIEHARD PEOPLE WHO GET THE NEW PHONE EVERY YEAR. BUT WHAT WE'VE SEEN IS THERE'S BEEN KIND OF A BACKLOG OF PEOPLE UPLOADING, UPGRADING THEIR PHONES, 300 MILLION PHONES ARE DUE FOR AN UPGRADE OVER THE NEXT FOUR YEARS. SO APPLE WANTS PEOPLE TO GET OUT AND BUY THOSE NEW PHONES. THIS IS WHERE IT GETS MOST OF ITS REVENUE. SO IT'S COUNTING ON HOPEFULLY A.I. TO HELP KIND OF GET PEOPLE OUT AND TO MAKE THOSE PURCHASES AND UPGRADE TO THE NEXT GENERATION. >> GOT IT. ALL RIGHT. STAY TUNED. IS SO HARD TO KEEP UP WITH ALL THIS. I HAVE YOU, ELIZABETH, YOU SO MUCH. THANKS. ALL RIGHT. THE NEWS NEVER STOPS. JUST LIKE IPHONES. YOU JUST CAN'T KEEP UP WITH IT. BUT YOU CAN FIND ANYWHERE YOU STREAM LIVE NEWS. AND IF YOU'RE ON THE GO, WE ARE ON THE ABC NEWS AND ABCNEWS.COM. ALSO I'M KYRA PHILLIPS.

CATCHING UP ON SLEEP DURING THE WEEKEND COULD BE GOOD FOR YOUR HEART, JOHN. ALCOHOLIC BARS ARE POPPING UP IN A GROWING NUMBER OF CITIES. THAT'S THE SPIRIT AMERICA THIS MORNING, AMERICA'S NUMBER ONE EARLY MORNING NEWS ON ABC NEWS. >> WHAT IT WAS A REGULAR DAY FOR 19-YEAR-OLD MELISSA WITH SOMETHING TERRIBLE. IT HAPPENED TO HER. WE HAD SEVERAL SUSPECTS, ALL THESE KINDS OF LEADS, A KNOWN SERIAL KILLER IN THE AREA. COULD HE BE INVOLVED OR ACTUALLY FINDING EVIDENCE THAT COULD HAVE SLIPPED THROUGH THE CRACKS? >> HER LAST HOURS ON THIS EARTH WERE HORRIFIC, THIS BEAUTIFUL YOUNG GIRL. POLICE WILL OUT WHAT HAPPENED AT WIT'S END AT THE HUNT FOR A KILLER. ON HULU. >> IT'S THE MOST CONSEQUENTIAL MOMENT OF THIS CAMPAIGN NOW. KAMALA HARRIS. DONALD TRUMP FACE TO FACE. THE ABC NEWS PRESIDENTIAL DEBATE MODERATED BY DAVID MUIR AND LINSEY DAVIS NIGHT LIVE ON ABC AND STREAMING ON HULU AND PLUS RIGHT NOW AND ABC NEWS LIVE, AN URGENT MANHUNT UNDERWAY, A SHOOTING ON A KENTUCKY HIGHWAY. WHERE THE INVESTIGATION STANDS NOW. PLUS, THE PHILLY FACE OFF AND IT'S HAPPENING RIGHT HERE ON ABC NEWS LIVE. THE FIRST DEBATE BETWEEN VICE PRESIDENT KAMALA HARRIS AND FORMER PRESIDENT DONALD TRUMP ONLY ONE DAY AWAY. FULL COVERAGE FROM THE CITY OF BROTHERLY ALL DAY LONG. AND APPLE'S NEXT GENERATION, A NEW PHONE. NEW AIRPODS AND A LOT MORE. BUT IS IT WORTH THE MONEY? AND GOOD AFTERNOON, EVERYONE. I'M KYRA PHILLIPS. OUR TOP STORY THIS HOUR, COUNTDOWN, THE HOURS. VICE PRESIDENT KAMALA HARRIS AND FORMER PRESIDENT TRUMP SET TO FACE OFF FOR THE VERY FIRST TIME IN TOMORROW'S PRESIDENTIAL DEBATE RIGHT HERE ON ABC NEWS LIVE. AND WE ARE TOLD TRUMPS HOING INFORMAL POLICY SESSIONS WITH A SMALL TEAM OF ADVISERS. WHILE HARRIS SAYS SHE'S READY TO GO AFTER A WEEKEND OF INTENSE DEBATE PRACTICE WITH HER TEAM, ALSO SAYING IN A RADIO INTERVIEW THAT SHE'S EVEN PREPARING FOR TRUMP'S LOT. >> TAKE A LISTEN. IT IS FOR HIM IN TERMS OF HOW HE WOULD GO AND AND WE SHOULD BE PREPARED FOR THAT. AND WE SHOULD BE PREPARED FOR THE FACT THAT HE IS NOT BURDENED BY TELLING THE TRUTH. AND WE SHOULD BE PREPARED FOR THE FACT THAT HE IS PROBABLY TO SPEAK A LOT OF UNTRUTHS. WITH ONLY 56 DAYS UNTIL ELECTION DAY, WE HAVE TEAM COVERAGE STARTING OUT WITH OUR SENIOR WHITE HOUSE CORRESPONDENT SELINA WANG, ALONG WITH OUR JAY O'BRIEN, WHO'S AT THE DEBATE SITE THERE IN PHILLY. TRUMP SMALL GROUP OF ADVISERS, DEBATE PREP INCLUDE CONGRESSMAN MATT GAETZ AND FORMER CONGRESSWOMAN TULSI . I UNDERSTAND. WHAT MORE DO WE KNOW? YEAH, THINK ABOUT IT. THIS WAY. TULSI GABBARD IS SOMEONE WHO HAS DEBATED KAMALA HARRIS IN PERSON. SHE'S MET KAMALA HARRIS, SOMEBODY THAT DONALD TRUMP HAS NEVER THOSE TWO HAVE ACTUALLY NEVER EVEN BEEN IN THE SAME ROOM TOGETHER. KAMALA HARRIS AND TRUMP. SHE ALSO HAD A VERY CONSISTENT LINE OF ATTACK WHEN THOSE TWO RAN FOR THE DEMOCRATIC NOMINATION, THAT BIG FIELD IN 2019. SHE ATTACKED TULSI GABBARD. DID KAMALA HARRIS ON HER RECORD AS A PROSECUTOR. SO TULSI GABBARD, BEING IN THAT ROOM GIVES, YOU A LITTLE BIT OF A WINDOW INTO WHAT MIGHT BE ONE OF DONALD TRUMP'S LINES OF ATTACK TOMORROW NIGHT. MATT GAETZ ALSO IN THAT ROOM, MAC GATES IS A CONSERVATIVE BOMB THROWER, A CLOSE ALLY OF DONALD TRUMP. HE MIGHT BE ABLE TO FEED TO DONALD TRUMP'S POLITICAL IDENTITY OF BEING A COUNTERPUNCHER, BEING SOMEONE WHO GOES ON OFFENSE. BUT ONE MORE THING TO KEEP IN MIND HERE, KARA, IS I'VE BEEN INSIDE THAT ROOM. I'VE SEEN DEBATE STAGE. THOSE TWO ARE GOING TO BE CLOSE TOGETHER. REMEMBER, THERE WAS NO LOVE LOST BETWEEN THEM. THEY HAVE NEVER MET IN AND BOTH ARE RARING FOR A POLITICAL FIGHT. THEY WILL BE JUST ARM'S LENGTH FROM RESULT FROM EACH OTHER. SO ONE OF THE QUESTIONS HANGING OVER TOMORROW NIGHT IS HOW TENSE DOES IT GET INSIDE THAT ROOM? >> WELL, SELINA HARRIS IS ALREADY THE GROUNDWORK, BELIEVING THAT TRUMP WILL TELL LIES THE DEBATE. GIVE US THE DETAILS. AND WHAT ARE YOUR SOURCES YOU ABOUT HOW SHE'S PREPARING AND WHY SHE'S COMING OUT AND REALLY MAKING THE STATEMENT? >> YEAH, CAROL. WELL, SOURCES TELL ME THAT VICE PRESIDENT HARRIS IS PREPARING FOR WHATEVER VERSION OF DONALD TRUMP WE GET TOMORROW NIGHT ON THAT DEBATE STAGE, WHETHER IT'S A MORE MELLOW TRUMP WHO'S ON ACTUAL ISSUES, AS HIS AIDES CERTAINLY WANT HIM TO DO, OR IF IT'S A TRUMP THAT IS HURLING A LOT OF PERSONAL ATTACKS AND INSULTS. NOW, SHE CLEARLY IS SETTING THE EXPECTATIONS HERE THAT SHE EXPECTS DONALD TRUMP TO REPEAT LIE. AND SOURCES TELL ME THAT VICE PRESIDENT HARRIS WANTS TO AVOID GETTING IN ANY RABBIT HOLES, BUT SHE ALSO WANTS TO HOLD TRUMP ACCOUNTABLE WHEN. HE TRIES TO DODGE SOME OF THOSE DIFFICULT QUESTIONS. BUT THERE IS A LOT AT STAKE HERE FOR VICE PRESIDENT HARRIS. THIS WILL BE HER FIRST GENERAL ELECTION PRESIDENTIAL DEBATE. THIS WILL BE DONALD TRUMP'S SEVENTH. AND SHE REALLY WANTS TO RECREATE THE ENVIRONMENT. SHE'S GOING TO FACE DURING HER PRACTICE SESSIONS. I'M TOLD SHE'S ALREADY DONE SEVERAL MOCK DEBATE. AND IN PENNSYLVANIA, SHE DID THESE MOCK DEBATES WITH A FULL STAGE LIGHTING, AN ACTUAL STAGE, AND SHE HAS A TRUMP STANDARD WHO'S REALLY APPROACHING HIS ROLE AS A METHOD ACTOR. SOURCES ALSO TELL ME THAT VICE PRESIDENT HARRIS WANTS TO LEAD INTO HER BACKGROUND DURING THIS DEBATE TO REMIND AMERICANS ABOUT HER MIDDLE CLASS UPBRINGING, WHICH HE ACHIEVED AS A PROSECUTOR, AS A SENATOR AS AN ATTORNEY GENERAL. SHE'S ALSO GOING TO WANT TO HIGHLIGHT HER POLICY POSITIONS, ESPECIALLY AROUND THE ECONOMY. AND, OF COURSE, KYRA, SHE CRITICALLY WANTS TO DRAW THAT CONTRAST WITH DONALD TRUMP. SHE'S GOING TO BE HAMMERING THIS MESSAGE THAT DONALD TRUMP IS OUT FOR HIMSELF, WHERE SHE'S OUT FOR AMERICAN PEOPLE AND THE MIDDLE CLASS. AND ANOTHER TOP TEST THAT I'M SHE WANTS TO ACCOMPLISH IS TO GET UNDER DONALD TRUMP SKIN WHILE MAINTAINING OWN CALM AND COMPOSURE. SO A LOT TO ACCOMPLISH HERE IN 90 MINUTES. IT'S A REALLY DIFFICULT BALANCE THAT SHE'S GOING TO HAVE TO WALK. >> ALSO TAKING A LOOK AT HER PAGE HERE, I GUESS SHE FINALLY ADDED THIS LONG AWAITED ISSUES PAGE TO HER WEB SITE. >> WHAT TOOK YOU SO LONG? >> WELL, LOOK, IN THE FIRST WEEKS OF HER ANNOUNCING HER CANDIDACY, HER TEAM REALLY WANTED TO RIDE ON THAT WAVE OF EUPHORIA AND AROUND THIS NEW CANDIDATE. THEY DIDN'T WANT TO GET BOGGED INTO THE NITTY GRITTY POLICY DIVISIONS. BUT, LOOK, THEY NOW KNOW IT IS A VULNERABILITY HERE. A ONE THIRD OF AMERICANS IN THAT NEW TIMES SIENA POLL SAY THAT THEY WANT TO KNOW MORE ABOUT VICE PRESIDENT AND MANY OF THEM WANT TO UNDERSTAND MORE ABOUT HER POLICY POSITIONS. SHE COURSE HAS CHANGED HER POSITION. SHE'S MODERATED THEM PRETTY SUBSTANTIALLY SINCE HER 2020 DEMOCRATIC PRIMARY RUN. SO VICE HARRIS NOW WANTS TO LAY OUT CLEARLY WHAT HER PROPOSALS ARE. SHE HAS BEEN DOING THAT IN RECENT WEEKS, ESPECIALLY AROUND THE ECONOMY, TO LOWER PRICES FOR AMERICANS, LOWER COSTS, MAKE HOUSING AFFORDABLE HER CHILD TAX CREDIT, AS WELL AS HER PROPOSALS TO HELP SMALL . AND THAT IS SOMETHING SHE'S GOING TO HAVE TO DO ON THE DEBATE STAGE AS WELL AS TO OUTLINE HOW SHE'S A CHANGE CANDIDATE. LOOKING FORWARD TO THE FUTURE. BUT SHE'S ALSO GOING TO NEED TO ACCOUNT FOR THE FACT THAT SHE HAS BEEN SERVING AS VICE PRESIDENT UNDER PRESIDENT BIDEN. AND MANY OF HIS POLICIES HAVE NOT BEEN VERY POPULAR. AND THE ECONOMY, OF COURSE, IS A VULNERABILITY FOR HER. BUT SHE WANTS TO FLIP THE TABLE ON THAT AND MAKE THAT VULNERABILITY A STRENGTH TO TALK ABOUT WHAT SHE WANTS TO DO IN THE FUTURE. ALL RIGHT, JAY O'BRIEN SELINA WANG, THANK YOU BOTH. NOW, MARKET ON CALENDAR BECAUSE IT'S ONE OF THE MOST HIGH STAKES PRESIDENTIAL DEBATES TO DATE, AND IT'S HAPPENING RIGHT HERE ON ABC NEWS LIVE. THE FIRST FACE OFF BETWEEN FORMER PRESIDENT AND VICE PRESIDENT KAMALA HARRIS. THAT'S TOMORROW NIGHT, 9 P.M. EASTERN. WE'RE HEADED TO PHILLY RIGHT NOW, SO WE'LL SEE YOU THERE. WELL, KENTUCKY STATE POLICE PROVIDING AN UPDATE NOW ON THE SEARCH FOR SUSPECTED SHOOTER JOE COUCH. CURRENTLY, IT'S IN ITS THIRD DAY. POLICE HELD A PRESS CONFERENCE JUST A SHORT BIT AGO. NOT A WHOLE LOT OF UPDATES, BUT ARE TRYING TO ASSURE THE PUBLIC THAT THEY'RE DOING EVERYTHING THEY CAN TO CATCH THE 32 YEAR OLD SUSPECT. POLICE SAY THE SHOOTER SERIOUSLY INJURED AT LEAST FIVE DRIVERS ALONG A STRETCH OF INTERSTATE 75, ALLEGEDLY HIDING IN A HEAVILY WOODED AREA NEAR THE RAMP OFF OF EXIT 49. OUR ALEX PRESHA STANDING BY RIGHT THERE AT THAT PRESS CONFERENCE THAT HAPPENED IN LONDON, KENTUCKY. ALSO, OUR CONTRIBUTOR AND FORMER FBI AGENT BRAD GARRETT. ALEX, WHAT STOOD OUT TO YOU FROM THE STATE POLICE? I MEAN, IT SEEMS LIKE THEY'RE STILL SEARCHING PUTTING A LOT OF ASSETS OUT THERE. THEY DID TELL US COUCH WAS ARMY RESERVES, BUT THIS IS GOING TO THEY COULD BE INVOLVED IN THIS FOR THE LONG HAUL. >> YES, IT WILL. DOES SEEM THAT WAY, KYRA. I MEAN, THERE HAVEN'T BEEN ANY DEFINITIVE UPDATES FOR THE LAST COUPLE. COUPLE PRESSERS. ASIDE FROM HIS BACKGROUND INFORMATION. BUT I WILL SAY WHEN WE DID GET THE WARRANT FOR HIS ARREST, WE KNOW THAT HE'S GOING TO BE CHARGED WITH FIRST DEGREE ASSAULT AND ATTEMPTED MURDER. FIVE COUNTS OF EACH OF THOSE FOR FIVE VICTIMS FROM SATURDAY'S EVENT. BUT THE OTHER THING THAT WE'RE GETTING SOME DETAILS, KIND OF LIKE A LITTLE BIT OF A TIKTOK. BASED ON THE AFFIDAVIT THAT WAS ATTACHED TO THIS, THE SEARCH WARRANT, WE'RE LEARNING THAT COUCH HAD CONTACT WITH A WOMAN NAMED SIERRA MILLS WHO ONE OF THE ATTORNEYS HERE TELLS ME IS THE MOTHER OF OF HIS CHILD WHERE HE TEXTED SAYING, I'M GOING TO KILL A LOT OF PEOPLE. WELL, AT LEAST TRY. AND THEN IN A SEPARATE TEXT MESSAGE THAT HE SAID THAT HE WAS GOING TO KILL HIMSELF AFTERWARDS. AND WE'RE TOLD THAT THAT IS WHAT KIND OF PROMPTED LAW ENFORCEMENT THAT THEIR PERSON OF INTEREST WAS THEIR SUSPECT, SARA MILLS. OBVIOUSLY, TO LAW ENFORCEMENT TO WARN. BUT WE'RE TOLD THAT THIS PLAYED OUT AROUND 5 P.M. AND, KYRA, WE KNOW THAT SHOOTING HAPPENED JUST ABOUT 30 MINUTES LATER. >> THAT'S RIGHT. AND BRAD, IT DOES SEEM LIKE THEY MAY BELIEVE THEY MIGHT KNOW THE AREA THAT HE'S IN. BUT YOU KNOW, THAT NATIONAL FOREST IS THOUSANDS AND THOUSANDS OF ACRES. I MEAN, THIS COULD TAKE A LOT OF TIME, BUT WANT TO PUT THE PRESSURE ON HIM, HOPING THAT HE'LL JUST GIVE UP AND GIVE IN. RIGHT. IF, IN FACT, HE'S STILL ALIVE, BASED ON THAT ONE TEXT MESSAGE. >> SO, YOU KNOW, A THINGS IF HE HAS PASSED AWAY. >> OBVIOUSLY, FROM THE STANDPOINT IF HE DIDN'T PASS AWAY IN SOME PLACE, THAT HE COULD BE EASILY BE FOUND. YOU COULD BE CHASING FOR A LONG TIME IF HE'S IN ONE OF THESE CAVES, YOU KNOW, THAT HAS HIS OWN CHALLENGES. IF HE'S BROTHER OR IF HE'S ALIVE OR DECEASED. BUT YOU KNOW, KYRA, IF YOU GO ON THE RUN AND YOU DON'T HAVE IT PLANNED OUT AND, YOU KNOW, THE IMMEDIATE AREA, ASSUME HE'S A KID. >> THAT'S FROM THE LONDON, KENTUCKY AREA. WHAT DOES HE KNOW BEYOND THAT? AND SO PEOPLE TEND NOT TO LEAVE WHERE THEY ARE FROM BECAUSE THEY'RE KIND OF LOST AT THAT POINT. NOW THAT WILL WORK TO THE ADVANTAGE OF LAW ENFORCEMENT IN THAT WHETHER CONFINED TO THE FOREST, THE NATIONAL FOREST, HE IS GOTTEN OUT OF THERE. WHERE IS HE REALLY GOING TO GO? HOW IS HE REALLY GOING TO SUPPORT HIMSELF? PROBABLY ALL THAT GREAT DIFFICULTY. SO SO WE'LL SEE. I THINK I'M GOING TO BE CONCERNED AFTER ANOTHER DAY OR TWO, IF HASN'T SURFACED, THAT HE MAY HAVE WELL TAKEN OWN LIFE AND THEY JUST HAVEN'T FOUND HIM RIGHT? YEAH. AND IF THEY DO, IT COULD TAKE A REALLY LONG TIME. ALEX, BRAD, THANK YOU BOTH. APPRECIATE IT. WE HAVE MORE BREAKING NEWS TELL YOU ABOUT THE JUSTICE DEPARTMENT CHARGING TWO PEOPLE IN CALIFORNIA SAYING THEY WERE LEADING WHITE SUPREMACIST GROUP THAT WANTED TO IGNITE A RACE WAR HERE IN THE U.S. OUR JUSTICE REPORTER JACK CAFFERTY HAS THE LATEST FOR US. SO WHAT DO WE KNOW, JACK? >> WELL, IT'S A REALLY CHILLING INDICTMENT. DALLAS ERIN HUMBER AND HER ASSOCIATE, MATTHEW ROBERT ALLISON, ARE CHARGED WITH, AMONG OTHER THINGS, SOLICITATION OF HATE CRIMES, SOLICITATION TO MURDER FEDERAL OFFICIALS, INCLUDING A U.S. SENATOR, A JUDGE, A FEDERAL JUDGE, THE UNITED STATES ATTORNEY, AND MATERIAL SUPPORT FOR TERRORISM. THEY'RE DOING A LOT OF THIS ACTIVITY. AND A MESSAGING APP CALLED TELEGRAM MESSENGER AND. IT'S AN ENCRYPTED MESSAGING APP. THEY'RE RUNNING A NETWORK OF CHANNELS ON THAT APP. AND WHAT THEY'RE REALLY TRYING TO DO IS STOKE PEOPLE TO COMMIT CRIMES AND TO REALLY START A RACE WAR. THEY'RE TRYING TO INSPIRE INDIVIDUALS TO ATTACK WHEREVER THEY WERE AND THE ATTACKS INCLUDED ATTACKS ON INDIVIDUALS BASED ON RACE, SEXUAL ORIENTATION, AND ALSO ATTACKS ON GOVERNMENT AND INFRASTRUCTURE. AND THE CHILLING PART THIS IS MANY OF THOSE ATTACKS OCCURRED IN THE REAL WORLD. >> WELL, THE SUSPECTS ALLEGEDLY WANTED TO BRING ABOUT THIS WHITE ETHNO STATE, ACCORDING TO THESE DOCUMENTS, TAKING CREDIT FOR TEEN KILLING TWO PEOPLE AT AN LGBTQ BAR IN SLOVAKIA. >> SO HOW GLOBAL WAS JUST THIS GOAL OF THEIRS? IT'S ABSOLUTELY GLOBAL. THEY REALLY WANTED TO JUST DESTROY SOCIETY AS WE KNOW IT AND INSPIRE SORT OF A WHITE UPRISING AGAINST EVERYBODY ELSE. AND THEY WANTED TO ATTACK PEOPLE OF COLOR AND ATTACK WHITE PEOPLE WHO WHO WERE FRIENDLY TO THEM. AND, YOU KNOW, THE ATTACKS OCCURRED ALSO AND AS YOU MENTIONED, IN SLOVAKIA, IN TURKEY, AND AS CLOSE AS NEW JERSEY, WHERE A TEEN WAS INSPIRED TO ATTACK A POWER GRID SYSTEM IN NEW JERSEY THAT WAS THWARTED BY THE FBI. BUT, YOU KNOW, THE IS THAT THEY WERE TRYING TO GET LONE WOLF ATTACKERS ATTACK WHEREVER THEY ARE. AND IN ADDITION TO SORT THESE INSPIRATIONAL IDEOLOGIES, THEY'RE PUSHING OF THE IDEA THAT IF YOU COMMITTED ONE OF THESE ATTACKS, YOU COULD BECOME A SAINT THEIR WORLD. AND THEY PROMOTED SAINTHOOD AS A WAY SORT OF HAVE INFAMY FOREVER IN THAT COMMUNITY. >> JACK TODAY, APPRECIATE IT. THANKS. A JUDGE, THE BRIAN KOHBERGER CASE HAS GRANTED NOW A CHANGE OF VENUE FOR. HIS UPCOMING TRIAL AFTER THE DEFENSE SUCCESSFULLY ARGUED THAT IT WAS TOO GREAT OF A RISK TO PULL A JURY FROM THE AREA THAT THE KILLINGS OCCURRED IN. KOHBERGER IS ACCUSED OF MURDERING FOUR UNIVERSITY OF IDAHO STUDENTS IN THEIR CAMPUS IN ARE OFF CAMPUS HOME BACK IN NOVEMBER OF 2020. TO OUR LEGAL CONTRIBUTOR AND TRIAL ATTORNEY BRIAN BUCKMIRE HAS BEEN FOLLOWING THESE DEVELOPMENTS FOR US. SO, BRIAN, LET'S TALK ABOUT JUST THE SIGNIFICANCE, THIS VENUE CHANGE. AND I GUESS WE SHOULDN'T BE SURPRISED RIGHT? >> YES, IT IS SIGNIFICANT HERE IN THE SENSE WE'RE NO LONGER GOING TO HAVE THE CASE IN THE SAME COUNTY WHERE THE MURDERS. IT'S A MAJOR CHANGE IN THE SENSE THAT THE DEFENSE WAS ABLE TO SUCCESSFULLY ARGUE NOT ONLY THAT THE MEDIA WOULD PREJUDICE THE DEFENDANT FROM GETTING A FAIR AND IMPARTIAL JURY IN THAT COUNTY AND ACCOUNTING IN IDAHO, BUT THAT ANOTHER HING IT IN THAT COURT WOULD BE JUST TOO MUCH FOR THE COURT STAFF, FOR THE OFFICERS, THAT THE BUILDING IS NOT MADE FOR IT. SO ULTIMATELY, THE JUDGE DECIDED THAT BOTH THE JUDGE AND THE COURT AND THE COUNTY SHOULD BE DIFFERENT FOR THIS CASE. >> SO WHAT HAPPENS NEXT? THE JUDGE IS GOING TO REMAIN ON THE CASE RIGHT? >> YEAH. SO ACTUALLY, IN IN IDAHO, A JUDGE GRANTS A CHANGE OF VENUE. THEY HAVE THE ABILITY TO SAY WHETHER OR NOT. THEY'RE INTERESTED IN KEEPING THE ASSIGNMENT OR OR KEEPING THE CASE IN CASE. THE JUDGE SAID THAT BOTH THE JURISDICTION AS WELL, AS THE JUDGE NEEDS TO BE SELECTED BY SOMEONE IN THE SUPREME COURT. SO IT SEEMS LIKE THE JUDGE HAS ALREADY HINTED THAT THEY WILL NOT BE STAYING ON THIS CASE. OF COURSE, THEY COULD HAVE ASKED FOR IT. IT MIGHT NOT HAVE HAPPENED. BUT AT LEAST AT THIS POINT, FROM THE CONCLUSION AND THE DECISION OF THIS JUDGE, THEY'VE SAID LET BOTH THE JURISDICTION AND THE JUDGE BE CHOSEN BY THE SUPREME COURT. >> BRIAN BUCKMIRE, GOOD TO SEE YOU. APPRECIATE YOU. >> COMING UP, THE LATEST TROPICAL STORM CHURNING IN THE GULF OF MEXICO. WELL, IT'S ARRIVED. WE'LL TELL YOU WHERE FRANCINE IS EXPECTED TO MAKE LANDFALL NEXT NEXT WHENEVER NEWS BREAKS .

TOMORROW NIGHT ON ABC AND STREAMING ON HULU AND DISNEY PLUS YOU'RE WATCHING AMERICA'S NUMBER ONE STREAMING NEWS ABC NEWS LIVE. BREAKING NEWS EXCUSE US LIVE REPORTING KEEPS STREAMING WITH ABC NEWS. GOT YOUR STORY WITH US SO GET READY APPLE'S NEXT GENERATION. IT'S HOSTING ITS ANNUAL EVENT IN CALIFORNIA, UNVEILING NEW VERSIONS OF IPHONE, AIRPODS AND A LOT MORE. THE COMPANY ALSO MAKING HISTORY ITS FIRST LINEUP OF NEW PHONES BUILT FOR WIRELESS WHICH SHOWS HE HAS ALL THE LATEST FOR US. >> OH, BOY. JUST WHEN YOU JUST JUST WHEN YOU'RE GETTING USED TO WHAT YOU HAVE. >> THEN THEY UNVEIL YET ANOTHER IPHONE WITH FEATURES MORE THINGS TO LEARN, MORE THINGS TO LEARN AND A MORE TO LEARN ON THE IPHONE, WHICH IS STILL VERY FOREIGN TO A LOT OF PEOPLE WHEN IT COMES TO THE DAY TO DAY. USE THIS IDEA THAT YOUR SMARTPHONE IS KIND OF INTEGRAL AND WITH THEY I THINK MOST PEOPLE THINK WHAT DOES THAT ACTUALLY LOOK LIKE? SO APPLE KIND OF GAVE US A GLIMPSE TODAY. IT RELEASED THE IPHONE 16. THE WHEN YOU LOOK AT THIS PHONE HERE, A COUPLE OF BIG DIFFERENCES FIRST OF ALL, JUST TO POINT OUT, THE SCREEN'S BIGGER THAN IT'S EVER BEEN. SO UNFORTUNATELY LIKE WHEN YOU TRY TO FIT IT INTO YOUR BAG AND YOU ALREADY HAVE TROUBLE WITH THIS NEW PHONE, IT BE EVEN BIGGER ON THE DISPLAY. THEY ALSO SAY IT'S MORE SCRATCH RESISTANT, WHICH COULD BE A GOOD THING. AND THEN YOU'LL ALSO NOTICE THAT THERE WAS THERE IS ONLY GOING TO BE TWO ON CAMERAS, TWO LENSES IN THE BACK, WHICH IS A RETURN TO KIND OF THAT OLDER PHONE DEVICE. BUT THEY SAID THE CAMERA'S EVEN BETTER. SO WHAT DOES THAT MEAN FOR A.I.? THE EXAMPLE, FOR EXAMPLE, THEY SAID, IS IF YOU'RE OUT AND YOU WANT TO YOU SEE YOU'RE OUT IN THE STREET AND YOU SEE A DOG THAT YOU DO RECOGNIZE WHAT TYPE OF BREED OF DOG THAT IS, YOU CAN TAKE A PHOTO OF IT AND. YOUR PHONE WILL ACTUALLY JUST TELL YOU AUTOMATICALLY WHAT IT IS. THAT'S A KIND OF EXAMPLE OF GENERATIVE AI AT USE. ANOTHER EXAMPLE WOULD BE AS IF YOU WANT TO CREATE A CUSTOM EMOJI, YOU CAN JUST TELL YOUR PHONE, CREATE AN EMOJI X, Y, Z, AND THEN IT JUST DOES THAT AUTOMATICALLY. SO THE IDEA IS THAT IT'S GOING TO KIND OF INTEGRATE THESE GENERATIVE A.I. FEATURES INTO THE DAY TO DAY WOULD ALSO BE USED WITH SIRI, WITH THE VOICE ASSISTANT. >> TRY TO COME UP WITH THOSE DAY TO DAY USE CASES SO THAT AI IS MORE PART OF YOUR LIFE. I THINK KEY QUESTION HERE, KYRA, IS DOES THAT IS THAT A SELLING POINT FOR PEOPLE YET? I MEAN, DO THEY REALLY WANT THOSE FEATURES? DO THEY SEE THAT AS SOMETHING THAT WOULD ADD A LOT OF BENEFITS TO THEIR DAY TO DAY LIVES WHEN WE'RE ALREADY TRYING TO KEEP UP WITH A LOT OF THE EXISTING TECHNOLOGY? PEOPLE HAVE NOT BEEN UPGRADING THEIR IPHONES AT NEARLY AS OF A PACE THAT THEY WERE IN THE PAST. REMEMBER, FOR A WHILE THERE WAS THIS TIME WHERE THE NEW IPHONE WOULD COME OUT. PEOPLE WOULD LINE UP. THERE ARE DEFINITELY STILL DIE HARD PEOPLE WHO GET THE NEW PHONE E E BEEN KIND OF A BACKLOG OF PEOPLE UPLOADING, UPGRADING THEIR PHONES. 300 MILLION PHONES ARE DUE FOR AN UPGRADE OVER THE NEXT FOUR YEARS. SO APPLE WANTS PEOPLE TO GET OUT AND BUY THOSE NEW PHONES. THIS IS WHERE IT GETS MOST OF ITS REVENUE. SO IT'S COUNTING ON HOPEFULLY A.I. TO HELP KIND OF GET PEOPLE OUT TO MAKE THOSE PURCHASES AND UPGRADE TO THE NEXT GENERATION. >> GOT IT. ALL RIGHT. STAY TUNED. IS SO HARD TO KEEP UP WITH ALL THIS. ACTUALLY HAPPENING, ELIZABETH SCHULZE. THANK YOU SO MUCH. THANKS. ALL RIGHT. THE NEWS NEVER STOPS. JUST LIKE IPHONES. YOU JUST CAN'T KEEP UP WITH IT.

THE FDA IS OUT WITH NEW RULES WHEN IT COMES TO MAMMOGRAMS FOR WOMEN. THIS IS BIG. >> Dr. Darien: SO IMPORTANT. THIS IS A NEW FDA RULE THAT WILL TAKE EFFECT TOMORROW. IT'S REGARDING THOSE RESULTS. WHEN YOU GET KNOWS RESULTS BACK HOW DO WE HIGHLIGHT THEM AS PHYSICIANS, HOW DO WE EXPLAIN THEM FOR PATIENTS IN THIS FDA RULE REQUIRES THAT WOMEN BE TOLD IF THEY HAVE DENSE BREASTS. THIS APPLIES TO APPROXIMATELY HALF OF ALL WOMEN OVER THE AGE OF 40. BREAST DENSITY CAN ONLY BE IDENTIFIED ON IMAGING, AND IT CAN MAKE SPOTTING CANCER MORE DIFFICULT. IT'S ALSO ASSOCIATED WITH AN INCREASED RIX, WHICH IS WHY THIS RULE IS COMING INTO EFFECT. GUYS, CURRENTLY THE GUIDELINES RECOMMEND ALL WOMEN AT THE AGE OF 40 START SCREENING. BUT THIS DENSE BREASTS CLAUSE PROVIDES INFORMATION FOR WOMEN TO KNOW IF THEY ARE AT HIGHER RISK TO MAKE BETTER CHOICES OR CHANGE THEIR SCREENING AFTER THAT. THAT CAN INCLUDE OTHER IMAGING LIKE MAMMOGRAMS. ASIDE FROM THAT, ULTRA SOUNDS, MRIs, THOSE TYPES OF THINGS REALLY IMPORTANT TO KNOW ABOUT. >> Eva: IT'S ALSO INTERESTING BECAUSE PEOPLE SHOULD BE HAVING THESE CONVERSATIONS WITH THEIR LOVED ONES BECAUSE IF YOU KNOW YOU HAVE DENSE BREASTS IN YOUR FAMILY YOU CAN SCHEDULE THESE APPOINTMENTS TOGETHER AND SAVE YOURSELF THE -- >> Dr. Darien: SUCH A HELPFUL POINT, EVA.

The worries, on Wall Street, fast, straight forward with some fun in between catching up on sleep. During the weekend could be good for your heart. Non-alcoholic bars are popping up in a growing number of cities. That's the spirit America This Morning. America's number one, early morning news on, ABC News live. It was a regular day for 19 year old Melissa with something terrible had happened to her had several suspects all these kinds of leads of known serial killer in your area. Could he be involved actually finding key evidence that could have slipped through the cracks her last hours on this Earth with horrific this beautiful control police will find out what happened at wit's end the hunt for a killer only on Hulu. Get ready, America every Friday hottest Trends Styles and must have what's the right stuff to buy right now. I really love that it's time to buy the right stuff. Yes. And save big time to the right stuff Fridays on GMA you're going to love it. With so much at stake. So much on the line, more Americans turn here than any other news cast, ABC News World News Tonight, with David Muir. America's number one, most watched news cast across all of television, Tomorrow night, the most consequential moment of this campaign, Kamala Harris. Donald Trump, we will soon be a great nation again face-to-face, historic, the ABC News presidential debate moderated by David Muir and Lindsey Davis. Tomorrow night live on ABC and streaming on ABC News, live, Hulu, and Disney plus the ABC News presidential debate. >> Eva: WELCOME BACK TO "GMA3." WITH LESS THAN TWO MONTHS UNTIL ELECTION DAY ALL EYES WILL BE RIGHT HERE ON ABC TOMORROW NIGHT WHEN VICE PRESIDENT KAMALA HARRIS AND FORMER PRESIDENT DONALD TRUMP SQUARE OFF IN THE EAGERLY ANTICIPATED ABC NEWS PRESIDENTIAL DEBATE. IT WILL BE THE FIRST TIME THE TWO CANDIDATES WILL MEET FACE TO FACE. >> DeMarco: AND HERE TO GET US READY FOR THE BIG NIGHT ABC CHIEF WHITE HOUSE CORRESPONDENT MARY BRUCE AND OUR CHIEF WASHINGTON CORRESPONDENT JONATHAN KARL. GOOD TO SEE YOU GUYS BOTH. MARY, WE'LL START WITH YOU. YOU'RE IN PITTSBURGH WHERE THE VICE PRESIDENT IS GETTING READY FOR THE BIG NIGHT. CAN YOU TELL US ABOUT HER PREP AND HOW SHE'S GETTING READY? >> YEAH, WELL, DeMARCO, BEHIND THESE HOTEL DOORS KAMALA HARRIS IS NOW HUNKERED DOWN GETTING READY FOR WHAT WILL NO DOUBT BE A DEFINING MOMENT IN THIS RACE. AND SHE IS TAKING THIS PREP PRETTY SERIOUSLY. WE KNOW SHE IS HOLDING THESE MOCK DEBATE SESSIONS AND EVEN SET UP A FULL STAGE WITH FULL TV LIGHTING HERE FOR THESE REHEARSALS. AND SHE'S ACTUALLY BEING PREPARED AND BEING GIVEN THE HELP OF SOME OF THE ADVISERS WHO HELPED HILLARY CLINTON PREP FOR HER 2016 DEBATE WITH DONALD TRUMP INCLUDING ONE ADVISER WHO IS NOW PLAYING THE ROLE OF THE FORMER PRESIDENT IN THESE MOCK DEBATE SESSIONS. AND OF COURSE KAMALA HARRIS, WE KNOW SHE'S AN EXPERIENCED DEBATER. SHE WAS KNOWN DURING HER DAYS UP ON CAPITOL HILL FOR THOSE POINTED EXCHANGES IN SO MANY HEARINGS. BUT THE CAMPAIGN IS QUICK TO NOTE THAT THIS IS FUNDAMENTALLY DIFFERENT, THIS WILL BE DONALD TRUMP'S SEVENTH PRESIDENTIAL DEBATE. IT WILL BE KAMALA HARRIS'S FIRST. AND AS YOU NOTED THERE, THIS IS THE FIRST TIME THE TWO OF THEM ARE EVER ACTUALLY COMING FACE TO FACE. THEY'VE NEVER MET BEFORE. SO THE GOAL HERE FOR KAMALA HARRIS IS REALLY TO OUTLINE HER PROPOSALS, TO CONTINUE TO REINTRODUCE HERSELF TO VOTERS BEFORE TRUMP HAS A CHANCE TO DO IT FOR HER, AND THEN TO PIVOT AND GO ON THE ATTACK. SHE REALLY WANTS TO HIGHLIGHT WHAT SHE BELIEVES IS DONALD TRUMP'S FAILED RECORD. THE CAMPAIGN HOPING TO COUNTER SOME OF WHAT THEY BELIEVE IS SOME TRUMP AMNESIA OUT THERE AMONG VOTERS. AND YES, GUYS, SHE WANTS TO GO ON THE ATTACK AND SHE WANTS TO GET UNDER DONALD TRUMP'S SKIN. THE CHALLENGE THERE, THOUGH, IS HOW SHE CAN SUCCESSFULLY BAIT DONALD TRUMP WITHOUT GETTING BAITED HERSELF, GUYS. >> Eva: ALL RIGHT. WE HAVE TO ASK, DONALD TRUMP VERY FAMOUSLY SAYS HE DOESN'T DO TRADITIONAL DEBATE PREP. WHAT ARE YOU HEARING ABOUT HOW HE'S PREPARING FOR THIS NIGHT? >> WELL, HE DOES A LITTLE MORE THAN HE LETS ON. A LITTLE MORE. YOU HEARD MARY DESCRIBE THE KAMALA HARRIS PROCESS. I MEAN, THEY LITERALLY GO IN AND BUILD AN EXACT REPLICA OF OUR DEBATE STAGE. THEY VIDEOTAPE IT SO THEY CAN WATCH HOW THOSE ANGLES LOOK, HOW THE CUTAWAY -- HOW THE TWO-SHOTS LOOK, HOW THE LIGHTING WORKS, HOW THE WALKOUT WORKS. TRUMP DOES NONE OF THAT. BUT HE DOES SIT AROUND WITH A TEAM OF ADVISERS WHO BOUNCE AROUND POSSIBLE QUESTIONS AND POSSIBLE ANSWERS. MATT GAETZ, THE CONGRESSMAN, IS AMONG THAT TEAM. SO IS TULSI GABBARD. LOOK, TRUMP -- I THINK IT'S A VERY IMPORTANT POINT THAT MARY JUST MENTIONED. HE HAS DONE SIX GENERAL ELECTION PRESIDENTIAL DEBATES. THIS WILL BE HIS SEVENTH. THAT WILL BE A RECORD IN AMERICAN HISTORY. NO OTHER PRESIDENT HAS DONE SO MANY GENERAL ELECTION DEBATES. SO HE'S BEEN AT THIS BEFORE. HE HAS A SENSE FOR IT. BUT MOST OF IT IS INSTINCT, NOT PRACTICE. >> DeMarco: BUT JONATHAN, WILL HE CHANGE HIS APPROACH WITH VICE PRESIDENT HARRIS OR WILL HE TAKE A SIMILAR APPROACH AS HE DID WITH PRESIDENT BIDEN BACK IN JUNE? >> WILL TRUMP CHANGE? THAT'S ALWAYS A GOOD QUESTION. I MEAN, LOOK, DeMARCO, THE TRUTH OF THE MATTER IS HIS TEAM AROUND HIM ARE DRILLING INTO HIS HEAD AS MUCH AS THEY CAN THAT IF HE STICKS TO THE ISSUES, IF HE COMPARES THE TRUMP RECORD WITH THE BIDEN-HARRIS RECORD THEY BELIEVE, IF HE STICKS TO THE ISSUES WHERE THE POLLS SHOW HE HAS AN ADVANTAGE OVER KAMALA HARRIS, THE IMIMMIGRATION, INFLATION, THE ECONOMY, THAT HE WILL WIN THIS DEBATE. AND IF HE GOES OFF ON PERSONAL ATTACKS HE'S IN PROBLEMATIC GROUND. >> Eva: MARY, THERE WAS A LOT OF BACK AND FORTH WITH THE RULES. THE MICS ARE GOING TO BE OFF WHILE THE CANDIDATES AREN'T SPEAKING. WHAT CAN WE MAKE OF ALL THE BACK AND FORTH OVER THE RULES OF THE MICROPHONES? >> DeMarco: MM-HMM. >> YEAH, LOOK, IT CERTAINLY IS NOT UNUSUAL FOR THE CAMPAIGNS TO SPAR AND GO BACK AND FORTH OVER THE RULES FOR THESE KINDS OF THINGS. BUT REMEMBER OF COURSE, THESE WERE THE SAME RULES WE SAW IN THE LAST DEBATE. OF COURSE THAT WAS BETWEEN JOE BIDEN AND DONALD TRUMP. THESE WERE THE RULES THAT THE BIDEN CAMPAIGN HAD AGREED TO GOING FORWARD. AND I THINK THERE IS SOME CONCERN NOW AMONGST THE HARRIS CAMPAIGN THAT THIS MAY ALLOW DONALD TRUMP TO SEEM MORE TEMPERED, TO SEEM MORE IN CONTROL. I THINK THEY WERE LOOKING FORWARD IN SOME WAYS FOR HIM BEING A LITTLE BIT MORE FREE-WHEELING. AND NOW THAT THE MICROPHONES WILL BE MUTED WHEN THE CANDIDATE IS NOT SPEAKING, THEY ARE WORRIED THAT THAT MAY BE TO DONALD TRUMP'S BENEFIT. BUT OF COURSE REMEMBER THE TWO OF THEM ARE STILL GOING TO BE STANDING SIDE BY SIDE ON THAT DEBATE STAGE. THERE WILL BE PLENTY OF OPPORTUNITY FOR THEM TO INTERACT AND FOR US TO SEE A VERY REAL DEBATE HERE, GUYS. >> DeMarco: AND ONE THING IS FOR CERTAIN. THE WORLD WILL BE WATCHING. ABC'S MARY BRUCE AND JONATHAN KARL, GOOD TO SEE YOU GUYS. WE APPRECIATE IT. AND BY THE WAY, OUR SPECIAL COVERAGE OF THE ABC NEWS PRESIDENTIAL DEBATE BEGINS TOMORROW NIGHT AT 8:00 P.M.

THE SUPER BOWL PERFORMER. WHAT DO YOU THINK -- WHAT'S THE WORLD SAYING ABOUT IT? >> DeMarco: IT'S GOING TO BE SO L.A. >> I CAN'T EVEN STOP SNIMILING. I'M SO EXCITED FOR THIS. WHEN YOU THINK ABOUT THE SUPER BOWL, SUPER BOWL IS NO LONGER JUST ABOUT FOOTBALL. RIGHT? SUPER BOWL NOW HAS BECOME THE BIGGEST CULTURAL MOMENT OF OUR TIME. WE'RE AVERAGING NOW OVER 140 MILLION VIEWERS WATCH THE SUPER BOWL. FROM THE PARTIES AND CELEBRATIONS AND THE GET-TOGETHERS. AND WHAT BETTER WAY TO CELEBRATE THE FOOTBALL AND SPORTS' BIGGEST MOMENT THAN TO HAVE THE PERSON WHO IS RESPONSIBLE FOR CULTURAL'S BIGGEST MOMENT WITH THE BEEF BETWEEN KENDRICK LAMAR AND DRAKE? GUYS, WE HAVE NEVER SEEN A MOMENT WHERE A RAP BATTLE HAS GOTTEN TO THE SUPER BOWL STAGE. ARE YOU KIDDING ME? >> DeMarco: FROM THE WHITE HOUSE TO THE SUPER BOWL. >> Eva: ARE WE GOING TO SEE DRAKE OUT THERE? >> ABSOLUTELY NOT. AND KENDRICK HAS MADE IT SURE -- EVA'S AN AGITATOR. >> DeMarco: YOU KNOW IT. >> EVA, YOU'RE HIP-HOP. I SEE YOU. AND WE'VE NEVER SEEN IT BEFORE. AND IN TRUE KENDRICK LAMAR FORM HE'S FULL OF EASTER EGGS. HE'S ALWAYS UNTANGLING THESE RIDDLES AND PUZZLES. EVEN IN THE VIDEO ROLL THAT HE DID, THAT IS FROM A MOVIE FROM 1970 CALLED "PATTON" ABOUT THE WORLD WAR II HERO GENERAL PATTON WHERE PATTON IS STANDING IN FRONT OF THE AMERICAN FLAG, IN FRONT OF THE AMERICAN TROOPS, REALLY GIVING THIS MOTIVATIONAL SPEECH ABOUT HOW AMERICA ALWAYS FIGHTS. AND IN THE BEEF KENDRICK DOES USE DRAKE'S CANADIAN NATIONALITY IN ORDER TO START THE BEEF. SO THE FACT THAT HE HAS THE AMERICAN FLAG BEHIND HIM, INFERRING AMERICA'S ALWAYS GOING TO FIGHT. BUT THEN HE SAYS -- AND EVA, I WANT TO GET IT RIGHT. HE SAYS IN HIS RESPONSE, QUOTE, YOU KNOW THERE'S ONLY ONE OPPORTUNITY TO WIN A CHAMPIONSHIP. NO ROUND 2s. THAT'S A SUBLIMINAL TO DRAKE BECAUSE DRAKE HAS SAID IN HIS SONG "FACE" A COUPLE WEEKS AGO THAT HE'S BACK IN THE STUDIO READY TO GO AT IT AGAIN AND KENDRICK IS LIKE IT'S DONE. >> DeMarco: EVA'S EATING ALL OF THIS UP. LET'S TALK "MONDAY NIGHT FOOTBALL." IT'S KIND OF NICE TO SEE "MONDAY NIGHT FOOTBALL," RIGHT? THE JETS AND 49ers. >> WHAT A GREAT WEEKEND OF FOOTBALL WE HAVE. >> DeMarco: QUARTERBACK AARON RODGERS IS BACK AFTER THAT INJURY THAT PUT HIM OUT FOR THE ANNES SEASON. HE ACTUALLY TALKED ABOUT THAT MOMENT ON ESPN. LET'S TAKE A LOOK AT THIS. >> EVERYTHING FLASHING BEFORE YOUR EYES. YOU KNOW, THE 18 YEARS AT GREEN BAY, THE TRADE, THE SPRING, THE EXCITEMENT, THE SUMMER, THE CITY. "HARD KNOCKS." RUNNING ON THE FIELD WITH THE FLAG FOR THE FIRST TIME. 9/11. YEAH. AND THEN JUST THINKING THAT'S GOING TO BE THE LAST TIME. >> DeMarco: YEAH, I THOUGHT THEY WERE GOING TO TAKE HIM OUT FOR GOOD. WHAT IS IT LOOKING LIKE FOR THE NEW SEASON? >> TONIGHT WILL BE THE BIG TEST FOR US TO SEE CAN SOMEONE WHO IS PRESUMABLY IN THE CONVERSATION A GOAT, CAN HE COME BACK AND CAN HE BRING THE JETS WHAT THEY'RE HOPING FOR IS THAT SUPER BOWL CHAMPIONSHIP? IN THAT INTERVIEW HE SAID SOMETHING VERY PROFOUND. I'M GOING TO SPEAK METAPHORICALLY AND PARAPHRASE A LOT OF WHAT HE SAZ SAYING BUT AT THE END OF THE DAY WHAT HE WAS SAYING IS THIS TAUGHT HIM HOW TO BE MORE PRESENT AND IT TALKED ABOUT HIM APPRECIATING THE BLESSINGS IN LIFE AND THOSE PEOPLE WHO CAN LOVE ON YOU AND HAVING LOVED ONES. BUT SOMETHING I THOUGHT WAS VERY PROFOUND, HE SAID, "I REALIZE THAT LIFE GOES ON." I THINK THAT'S A NOTE FOR ALL OF US, RIGHT? NO MATTER HOW SPECIAL WE THINK WE ARE, HOW GREAT WE THINK WE ARE. LIFE GOES ON EVEN WITH OR WITHOUT US. >> DeMarco: AND IT CAN CHANGE IN A SPLIT SECOND. >> IT CAN CHANGE IN A HEARTBEAT. SO HERE'S A PERSON, THE GOAT, PRIMED TO POSSIBLY BRING THE JETS TO THE SUPER BOWL, GOES OUT AND GUESS WHAT, AFTER ABOUT A MONTH OR TWO WE STOP TALKING ABOUT HIM. AND IT ALL BECAME ABOUT MAHOMES AND HURTS AND THE EAGLES. AND THAT'S JUST A LESSON FOR US . LIFE GOES ON. ENJOY THE MOMENT. APPRECIATE YOUR LOVED ONES P APPRECIATE THE BLESSINGS. AND APPRECIATE WHAT AARON RODGERS SAID WAS THE LITTLE THINGS. BUT TODAY ENOUGH OF THAT EMOTIONAL TALK. IT'S ALL ABOUT FOOTBALL. >> DeMarco: LET'S GET DOWN TO FOOTBALL. RIGHT? >> YEAH. EVA. >> Eva: IT'S ALWAYS SO GOOD TO HAVE YOU. >> LOVE YOU, EVA. LOVE YOU, DeMARCO. >> DeMarco: LOVE YOU TOO. >> Eva: WE WILL SEE YOU NEXT MONDAY FOR MONDAY MORNING QUARTERBACK. BE SURE TO CATCH THE REST OF AARON RODGERS' INTERVIEW ON ESPN. >> DeMarco: IT'S GOING TO BE A GOOD GAME. WHEN WE COME BACK, MANY OF TRAC CHAMPIONSHIP CAREER ON THE COURT SINCE SHE WAS A LITTLE GIRL IN COMPTON. >> Eva: AND NOW VENUS WILLIAMS HAS SOME THOUGHTS ON STRIVING THAT SHE IS SHARING WITH THE WORLD. SHE'S HERE WITH HER NEW BOOK IN JUST A MINUTE. >> DeMarco: IT'S GOOD. First thing in the morning. There's a lot going on. We're still in a flash flood warning to catch you up with what happened overnight, clashing over National Security. What's happening today tensions, in the Middle East. What people are talking about?

Tomorrow night live on ABC and streaming on ABC News, live, Hulu, and Disney plus the ABC News presidential debate. You're watching. America's number one, streaming news keeps screaming with ABC News live. >> DeMarco: ALL RIGHT, FOLKS, WE'RE BACK NOW WITH DR. DARIEN TALKING ABOUT A NEW STUDY THAT SUGGESTS THAT GUN-OWNING PARENTS WHO TEACH THEIR KIDS ABOUT GUN SAFETY ARE LESS LIKELY TO STORE THEIR GUNS SAFELY. TELL US. >> Dr. Darien: INCREDIBLY CONCERNING. NEW REPORT FROM JAMMA, LARGE CLINICAL TRIAL FROM PEDIATRICS SURVEYED 800 PATIENTS IN STATES OF VARYING GUN LAWS. AND HERE'S THIS. THEY FOUND HALF TAUGHT THEIR CHILDREN PROPER HANDLING OF GUNS. OF THOSE WHO OWN GUNS A THIRD HAD CHILDREN PRACTICE, A THIRD TAUGHT THEM HOW TO SHOOT BUT THE MOST CONCERNING STATISTIC HERE, THOSE THAT DID THIS WERE MORE THAN TWICE AS LIKELY TO LEAVE THEIR GUN LOADED AND UNLOCKED IN THE HOME WHICH WAS -- >> DeMarco: LOAD. >> Dr. Darien: -- OF COURSE EXPOSES CHILDREN TO THE RISK GUN VIOLENCE IS THE LEADING CAUSE OF DEATH OF CHILDREN BETWEEN THE AGE OF 1 AND 17. AN IMPORTANT NOTE, AN IMPORTANT REMINDER FOR THOSE WHO OWN GUNS, 40% OF HOMES WITHIN THE UNITED STATES, TO TAKE BETTER CARE TO KEEP THESE THINGS AWAY FROM CHILDREN. >> Eva: I GREW UP IN SOUTH CAROLINA. EVERYBODY HAS A GUN DOWN THERE. I MEAN, WHAT WERE THEY ABLE TO FIND WAS THE REASON THAT THESE PARENTS WERE CLEARLY LIKE CONCERNED ENOUGH TO TEACH THEIR KIDS BUT THEN DIDN'T STORE IT? DID THEY FIND ANY REASON FOR THAT? >> Dr. Darien: A LOT OF THE REASONS THAT RESPOND RESPONDED WERE THE FALSE SENSE OF SECURITY THAT COMES WITH THINKING THAT TEACHING YOUR CHILD HOW TO USE A GUN OR HOW TO EVEN LOAD A GUN IS SOMETHING THAT PROVIDES A BETTER LAYER OF PROTECTION. BUT I THINK BRINGING IT BACK TO BIOLOGY, OUR FRONTAL BRAINS THAT MAKE DECISIONS ARE NOT FORMED UNTIL WE ARE IN OUR MID 20s. WHY IS THAT IMPORTANT? BECAUSE THAT'S WHY CHILDREN AND TEENS ARE MORE LIKELY TO HAVE RISKY EVENTS AND TAKE RISKY BEHAVIORS AND NOT UNDERSTAND THE IMPORTANCE OF UNDERSTANDING GUN SAFETY. SO I THINK NUMBER ONE IF YOU HAVE A GUN IN YOUR HOME MAKE SURE IT'S NOT LOADED. KEEP IT HIDDEN AND KEEP AMMUNITION SEPARATELY HIDDEN TO DECREASE YOUR CHANCES OF YOUR CHILD GETTING EXPOSURE TO THAT GUN. >> DeMarco: TWO THINGS. KIDS ARE CURIOUS. AND ACCIDENTS HAPPEN. >> Dr. Darien: ABSOLUTELY. AND IT'S ALWAYS UNPLANNED. SO MAKING SURE THAT YOU PLAN AHEAD, KEEPIPIRATE, HIDE IT WELL. >> DeMarco: ALL RIGHT, DOC, THANK YOU VERY MUCH. >> Dr. Darien: OF COURSE. WOW. >> WHAT DO YOU SAY I PEOPLE START THEIR DAY HERE FROM ABC NEWS. THIS IS "START HERE". TO BE IN THE MIDDLE AND A DIFFERENT TAKE ON THE DAY'S TOP STORIES. A LOT OF NEWS TODAY. SO LET'S BACK TO IT.

THE NEWS NEVER STOPS. ♪ LET'S GET DOWN ♪ >> Eva: DR. DARIEN BACK WITH US NOW WITH A QUESTION FROM ONE OF YOU. THIS ONE IS FROM SARAH S. ARE THERE CERTAIN FOODS I SHOULD AVOID WHILE TAKING PRESCRIPTION WEIGHT LOSS DRUGS? >> Dr. Darien: GREAT QUESTION. SO MANY PEOPLE USING MORE AND MORE PRESCRIPTION WEIGHT LOSS DRUGS. WE TALK ABOUT THEM ALL THE TIME. THERE'S SOME IMPORTANT THINGS FOR EVERYONE TO REMEMBER. NUMBER ONE, HIGH SUGAR CONTENT IS MORE LIKELY TO MAKE YOU MORE NAUSEOUS. SO IF YOU'RE CHOOSING FOODS, IF YOU'RE CHOOSING SOMETHING WITH A LOT OF SUGAR, JUST BE PREPARED BECAUSE OFTEN THESE INJECTABLE MEDICATIONS ESPECIALLY CAN LEAD TO NAUSEA. ALSO HIGH FAT FOODS TAKE LONGER TO DIGEST. AND THAT'S IMPORTANT BECAUSE AGAIN, A LOT OF THESE WEIGHT LOSS MEDICATIONS SLOW DOWN STOMACH EMPTYING. AND SO THAT CAN ALSO INCREASE INDIGESTION. AVOIDING SPICY FOOD. AND THE REASON THERE IS BECAUSE WEIGHT LOSS MEDICATIONS ARE OFTEN ASSOCIATED WITH REFLUX OR GIRD AND SPICY FOOD CAN MAKE THAT WORSE. AND THEN ALSO SOMETHING IMPORTANT, CRUCIFEROUS VEGETABLES. WE ALWAYS TALK ABOUT EATING YOUR VEGETABLES BUT VEGETABLES LIKE BROCCOLI, BRUSSELS SPROUTS, CAULIFLOWER, THAT CAN CAUSE A LOT OF BLOATING AND DISCOMFORT. YOU PROBABLY WANT TO STEER AWAY FROM THOSE TYPES OF VEGETABLES, ESPECIALLY IF YOU HAVE THOSE SYMPTOMS. >> DeMarco: SO BOTTOM LINE YOU CAN'T BE ON THESE DRUGS AND JUST EAT WHAT YOU WANT TO EAT. >> Dr. Darien: NO, IT'S ABOUT CHOOSING HIGH QUALITY FOODS. AND THEN ALSO THESE DRUGS ARE SUPPOSED TO BE USED IN TANDEM WITH ACTIVITY, WORKING OUT. THAT'S HOW YOU GET THAT BEST EFFECT. SO PICKING RIGHT AND GETTING OUT THERE AND MOVING. >> DeMarco: ALL RIGHT. YOUR PRESCRIPTION FOR WELLNESS. >> Dr. Darien: MY PRESCRIPTION FOR WELLNESS. WHAT IS IT TODAY? LET'S FOCUS. WHAT IS IT TODAY? >> Eva: FLU SHOTS. >> Dr. Darien: FLU SHOTS. THANK YOU, EVA. AGAIN -- >> DeMarco: SHE'S THE ASSISTANT THERE. >> Dr. Darien: MY PRESCRIPTION FOR WELLNESS IS ON FLU SHOTS. THANK YOU, EVA, SO MUCH. MY TRIAGE NURSE HERE. WE'RE GOING TO WORK ON HOW TO TALK TO YOUR KIDS ABOUT FLU SHOTS. BE HONEST WITH THEM AND TELL THEM WHAT TO EXPECT. YOU CAN ROLE PLAY WITH THEM AT HOME TAKE THEM THROUGH THE STEPS FROM CHICKEN TO UNDRESSING THAT CAN BE HELPFUL IN DECREASING THEIR FEAR. ALSO ICING THE AREA. YOU CAN ASK FOR THINGS THAT HELP WITH PAIN, NUMB THE SKIN WITH ICE BEFOREHAND, EVEN ASK THE NURSE FOR THINGS LIKE TOPICAL ANESTHETIC SPRAY. ALSO BRING A DISTRACTION, A BOOK, A GAME, A SCREEN WITH YOUR FAVORITE VIDEO AND THEN ALSO REWARD THEIR BRAVERY. REMIND THEM ABOUT WHAT THEY JUST DID, PROTECTING THEMSELVES, PROTECTING THEIR FRIENDS, AND ALSO REMIND THEM THAT UNFORTUNATELY THEY'LL LIKELY HAVE TO DO IT AGAIN. SO THEY'LL HAVE SOMETHING TO LOOK FORWARD TO. >> Eva: SHOTS ARE A PART OF LIFE, AREN'T THEY? >> Dr. Darien: THEY SURE ARE. >> Eva: WHEN SHOULD KIDS AND PARENTS GET FLU SHOTS? >> Dr. Darien: NUMBER ONE, REMEMBERING RIGHT NOW WE'RE ABOUT TO STEP INTO THE FLU SEASON. IN SOME STATES, STATES LIKE FLORIDA AS WELL AS TEXAS, WE'RE SEEING THE RISING RATES OF FLU. >> DeMarco: ALREADY. >> Dr. Darien: ALREADY. YOU CAN GET IT NOW. THE GOAL IS TO GET IT BEFORE END OF OCTOBER AND THAT HELPS TO PROTECT YOU AGAINST THE MAJORITY OF THE FLU SEASON. COVID SHOTS SAME RULES, SAME DIRECTIONS. WE'RE SEEING COVID RATES RISE ON THE OPPOSITE END OF AMERICA, IN THE NORTHWEST AND IN THE MIDWEST. STATES LIKE MICHIGAN, SOUTH DAKOTA, WASHINGTON. WE'RE SEEING RISING RATES OF COVID. SO RIGHT NOW'S THE BEST TIME TO GET IT. IF YOU HAVE TIME. I CHOOSE TO SEPARATE MINE BECAUSE I LIKE TO KNOW WHAT SHOT GIVES ME WHAT SYMPTOM.

IF YOU'VE BEEN HOPING TO SHAKE THINGS UP IN YOUR LIFE AND MAKE SOME POSITIVE CHANGES, AN INSPIRING NEW BOOK MAY BE JUST WHAT YOU NEED TO LIVE YOUR BEST LIFE. THE AUTHOR IS PROVING IT WORKS. IT'S CALLED "STRIVE: EIGHT STEPS TO FIND YOUR AWESOME." >> DeMarco: GOT TO LOVE IT. AND IT COMES FROM ONE OF THE GREATEST ATHLETES OF ALL TIME. THE MOST DECORATED TENNIS PLAYER IN OLYMPIC HISTORY, BY THE WAY, WITH FIVE WIMBLEDON TITLES AND SEVEN GRAND SLAM SINGLES TITLES. PLEASE HELP US WELCOME TO THE STUDIO THE G.O.A.T., VENUS WILLIAMS, EVERYBODY. GOOD TO SEE YOU, MY FRIEND. >> THANK YOU. GOOD TO SEE YOU GUYS TOO. >> DeMarco: CONGRATULATIONS. BUT LET'S TALK ABOUT THIS SKIN ROUTINE. WHAT ARE YOU DOING? >> ARE YOU SERIOUS? >> DeMarco: YEAH, YOU LOOK GOOD. >> I'M ABSOLUTELY OBSESSED WITH SKIN. BUT MOSTLY I JUST MOISTURIZE. YOU CAN FIND ME WITH A ROSE WATER SPRAY ALL DAY. >> DeMarco: SHE SAID I JUST MOISTURIZE. MOISTURIZING IS GOOD. ON THE PLANE, EVERYWHERE. >> EVERYWHERE. >> Eva: LET'S TALK ABOUT THIS GOOD. IT WAS SORT OF SOMETHING THAT CAM OUT OF YOU, THIS AUTOIMMUNE DISORDER DIAGNOSIS THAT CAME. AND YOU MADE A LOT OF BIG LIFE CHANGES. >> YEAH. >> Eva: WHY DID YOU DECIDE TO SHARE EVERYTHING YOU LEARNED? >> OH, FOR SURE I'VE BEEN, YOU KNOW, GOING AT BEING A PROFESSIONAL TS PLAYER FOR LON. AND I WANTED TO JUST SHARE WHAT I LEARNED IN MY LIFE. YOU GET TO THE POINT IN LIFE TOO WHERE YOU'RE THINKING ABOUT LIKE WHAT CAN YOU GIVE. I JUST WANT TO SHARE ALL THIS INFORMATION I HAVE. AND I LEARNED ON THE COURT THATTING ALSO APPLY OFF OF THE COURT. AND LIKE YOU SAID, I WAS DIAGNOSED WITH AN AUTOIMMUNE DISEASE. SOMETHING THAT WAS COMPLETELY OUT OF MY CONTROL. YOU SPEND YOUR LIFE AS A PROFESSIONAL ATHLETE AT THE TOP OF YOUR GAME. AND AS LONG AS YOU WORK HARD ENOUGH YOU CAN GET WHAT YOU WANT. AND THEN SUDDENLY IT'S COMPLETELY OUT OF CONTROL. SO I REALLY HAD TO USE THE LESSONS I LEARNED ON THE COURT TO DEAL WITH THAT. RESILIENCE AND EVEN DISCIPLINE. BUT MORE THAN ANYTHING I HAD TO LEARN TO STILL ENJOY AND APPRECIATE EVERYTHING THAT I HAD BECAUSE IT WAS HARD. IT WAS HARD TO NOT BE ABLE TO DO THE SAME THINGS. HARD TO NOT KNOW WHAT I COULD GIVE. IT WAS HARD FOR ME TO HAVE MY EXPECTATIONS FOR MY CAREER STILL AND NOT KNOW HOW I WAS GOING TO GET THERE. SO THE ONE THING I HAD TO LEARN WAS APPRECIATE. SO I WAS STARTING TO PUT INTO WORDS ALL THESE THINGS I LEARNED. AND IT CAME INTO LIKE EIGHT KEY WORDS OF HOW TO STRIVE FOR WHAT YOU WANT. OF COURSE APPRECIATING, OBSERVING, ENRICHING, SOOTHING, BALANCING YOUR LIFE, ALL THESE DIFFERENT THINGS THAT YOU CAN DO ON A DAILY BASIS TO BE WELL. >> DeMarco: AND YOU TALK ABOUT SOME OF THE SIMPLE CHANGES THAT WE CAN MAKE FROM EVERYTHING, WHAT WE EAT EVERY DAY TO THE PEOPLE THAT WE SPEND OUR TIME WITH. >> YES. >> DeMarco: HOW LONG DID YOU SEE CHANGES WHEN YOU MADE THOSE ADJUSTMENTS? >> YOU KNOW, IT WAS -- I MADE SOME EXTREME ADJUSTMENTS AND NOW I'M LESS EXTREME. I WANT RAW VEGAN BECAUSE I WANTED TO PLAY PROFESSIONAL SPORTS AGAIN. AND THEN I'M NOT RAW VEGAN ANYMORE. I DON'T THINK RAW VEGANS HAVE AS MUCH FUN. >> DeMarco: THEY DON'T. >> IT JUST WASN'T FOR ME. THEN I MADE NEW RULES FOR MYSELF LIKE OKAY, AT LEAST HALF OF YOUR PLATE SHOULD BE VEGETABLES. OKAY. THAT'S EASY TO DO. BECAUSE IT SHOULD BE EASY, ENJOYABLE, AND IT SHOULD BE EXCITING. THE CHANGES THAT YOU MAKE IN YOUR LIFE. IT SHOULDN'T FEEL LIKE GOOD GOD, I'VE GOT TO EAT THIS RAWFOOD? YOU KNOW, THAT'S NOT FUN. SO ANY OF THOSE CHANGES I TRIED TO MAKE IT SOMETHING I COULD MAINTAIN. >> DeMarco: SO JUST DON'T GO COLD TURKEY. >> I DID GO COLD TURKEY RECENTLY ON NO SUGAR. BUT IT WAS JUST NECESSARY. AND I FEEL SO MUCH BETTER. AND THERE'S MOMENTS WHERE YOU'VE JUST GOT TO SAY I'VE GOT TO DO THIS. BUT THEN THE OTHER PARTS OF YOUR LIFE YOU GET TO FIGURE OUT HOW TO ENJOY IT. IT'S ABOUT FINDING THE BALANCE, WHICH IS ALSO ONE OF THE TENETS. IT'S LIKE HOW DO YOU FIND BALANCE IN YOUR LIFE? AND THAT'S HARD TO DO, RIGHT? BECAUSE JUST HAVING A JOB AND RAISING YOUR FAMILY, THAT IS ALREADY LIKE LIFE'S OFF BALANCE. IT'S A BIG JOB. IT'S A LOT OF WORK. SO HOW DO YOU FIND MOMENTS OF BALANCE IN YOUR LIFE? THAT'S ALSO SOMETHING WE DON'T TALK ABOUT ENOUGH. RIGHT? AND IF YOUR LIFE IS OFF BALANCE YOU AREN'T WELL. SO HOW DO YOU MAINTAIN THE BALANCE IN YOUR LIFE AGAIN? AND ALSO IN THE BOOK WE TALK ABOUT ALL KINDS OF WELLNESS. I WANTED TO TALK ABOUT THAT. BECAUSE IT'S NOT JUST LIKE OKAY, EAT WELL AND THEN YOU'RE HAPPY. NO. THAT'S NOT IT. OR GO TO THE GYM AND THEN YOU'RE HAPPY. WHAT ARE THE OTHER PARTS OF WELLNESS THAT WE ARE NOT TALKING ABOUT ENOUGH THAT ARE SO IMPORTANT? BECAUSE MY LIFE ON THE COURT, LIKE IF OTHER PARTS OF MY LIFE WEREN'T RIGHT I COULDN'T PERFORM MY JOB. YOU KNOW, IF YOU'RE IN A BAD RELATIONSHIP, IF YOU'RE ARGUING WITH YOUR PARENTS OR FAMILY, IT'S HARD TO FOCUS ON WHAT YOU NEED TO DO. SO HOW DO YOU BE WELL IN EVERYTHING SO YOU CAN ACTUALLY STRIVE FOR YOUR BEST? >> DeMarco: REAL QUICK, WHAT'S NEXT FOR YOU? YOU'VE ACCOMPLISHED SO MUCH. IS THERE SOMETHING THAT YOU WANT TO DO THAT YOU HAVEN'T GOTTEN A CHANCE TO TRY OUT YET? >> YEAH, ABSOLUTELY. THE ONE THING I'M WORKING ON IS BALANCE. I ALMOST WROTE THAT CHAPTER FOR ME. BALANCE IS HARD. AND NOT EASY TO ACHIEVE. SO I'M LOOKING TO FIND BALANCE IN MY LIFE. BUT ALSO LOOKING TO SEE HOW MUCH I CAN GIVE. I LOVE OF COURSE -- YOU KNOW PEOPLE IN SPORTS, I LOVE THIS TOPIC OF WELLNESS. THAT'S WHAT I'M DEDICATING A LOT OF TIME TO. >>. >> Eva: HE YEAH, BALANCE. WE'RE ALL STRIVING FOR BALANCE I FEEL LIKE. >> THANK YOU. >> DeMarco: THE G.O.A.T. VENUS WILLIAMS, EVERYBODY. >> THANK YOU VERY MUCH. >> DeMarco: WE APPRECIATE YOU BEING HERE. HER BOOK "STRIVE" IS AVAILABLE EVERYWHERE BOOKS ARE SOLD STARTING TOMORROW. AND YOU CAN SCAN THE QR CODE ON THE SCREEN TO PREORDER YOUR OWN COPY TODAY. GO GET IT.

I WANTED TO BE MORE LIKE A MAINSTREAM PERSONALITY. SO I WAS TRYING TO FIND LIKE MY MADONNA REBRAND MOMENT. SO THEN I STARTED A NEW JOB AND LIKE I NOTICED THAT A LOT OF THE LIKE OLDER MEN THAT WOULD COME -- THROUGH MY CASHIER LINE I THINK MAYBE BECAUSE I WEAR A LOT OF MAKEUP AND I'M BLOND THEY WOULD KIND OF LIKE TREAT ME I NOTICED LIKE I WAS KIND OF AIRHEADED. SO THEN I THOUGHT IT WAS KIND OF FUNNY TO KIND OF LIKE PUT IT OUT AND BE LIKE NO, I'M VERY DEMURE. KIND OF MAKE IT ITS OWN CHARACTER. YOU KNOW WHAT I MEAN? >> DeMarco: BUT WERE YOU SURPRISED IT TOOK OFF LIKE THIS? AND HOW DID YOU COME UP WITH THE WORD DEMURE? WE KNOW THE WORD. BUT JUST TO MAKE IT FAMOUS. >> I THINK IT'S FOR ME ANYWAY, I HAD JUST LIKE -- I THINK BECAUSE -- EXCUSE ME, I'M SORRY. I THINK BECAUSE AGAIN, LIKE I JUST FELT LIKE I'M THE COMPLETE OPPOSITE OF WHAT DEMURE IS. MY LONG BLOND HAIR. I WEAR HEAVY MAKEUP. MY LONG ACRYLIC NAILS. SO TO ME I WAS KIND OF LIKE -- THE FACT THAT I'M NOT LIKE THE TRADITIONAL LIKE DEFINITION OF DEMURE WAS KIND OF LIKE THE WHOLE JOKE OF IT ALL. AND I THINK THAT LIKE SOME PEOPLE LIKE REALLY LIKE EITHER RELATE TO THAT OR THEY LIKE DON'T UNDERSTAND IT'S A JOKE COMPLETELY. >> DeMarco: I JUST WONDER WHAT DO YOUR FRIENDS SAY, YOUR CLOSE FRIENDS? >> OH MY GOD, THEY'RE SHOCKED. LIKE WHAT IS GOING ON, GIRL? I'M LIKE I TOLD YOU GUYS. >> Eva: TALK ABOUT A E. BRAND.

AND I MEAN AS I PREDICTED, HE FOUND SOMEONE ELSE. THAT MAKES SENSE. LOOK AT HER. >> LOOK AT YOU. WOMAN KING. >> WOMAN KING. >> SAY IT LIKE YOU MEAN IT. WOMAN SKBL WOMAN KING! >> THAT'S A LITTLE BIT LOUD. >> DeMarco: ALL OF THAT AFTER TWERKING. WELCOME BACK TO "GMA3." THAT WAS A CLIP FROM THE NEW HULU COMEDY SERIES "HOW TO DIE ALONE." >> Eva: JUST THE NAME OF THE TITLE MAKES ME GIGGLE. AND HERE TO TELL US ALL ABOUT IT ARE THE STARS OF THE NEW SHOW. PLEASE WELCOME CONRAD RICAMORA AND NATASHA ROTHWELL. >> BRAVO! >> GOOD MORNING. >> Eva: LET'S TALK ABOUT YOU, NATASHA. YOU ARE MEL IN THE SHOW. FINANCIALLY STRUGGLING AIRPORT EMPLOYEE IN THE MIDST OF AN IDENTITY CRISIS WHICH WE WERE SEEING UNFOLD THERE. HAVING JUST CHEATED DEATH. >> YEAH. >> Eva: THAT DOESN'T SOUND LIKE A FUNNY CHARACTER. >> DeMarco: NOT AT ALL. >> Eva: SO HOW DO YOU MAKE THIS FUNNY? >> WELL, I THINK THOSE OF US WHO EXPERIENCED ADVERSITY AND PARTICULARLY MARGINALIZED PEOPLE, WE USE HUMOR TO COPE. AND LIKE DEAL. AND SO SHE LOOKS THROUGH LIFE WITH THAT LENS. AND I THINK YOU HAVE TO HAVE GRAVITY AND LEVITY WORKING TOGETHER FOR THE SHOW TO REALLY POP. SO WE HAVE THOSE MOMENTS THAT ARE VERY SERIOUS AND, YOU KNOW, MEANINGFUL THAT TUG AT THE HEARTSTRINGS BUT WE ALSO GIVE THAT MOMENT OF LEVITY TO GIVE A BREAK FROM THAT AS WELL. >> DeMarco: WHAT DO THEY SAY SOMETIMES, YOU'VE GOT TO LAUGH TO KEEP FROM CRYING. >> THAT'S RIGHT. AND STEVEN SPIELBERG HAS THE QUOTE, IF YOU CAN MAKE THEM LAUGH THEY'LL TRUST YOU TO CRY. SO BEING ABLE TO PULL THEM IN WITH THE LAUGHTER AND THEN GET DEEPER WITH THE MESSAGE OF THE SHOW HAS BEEN LIKE A REALLY NICE TROJAN HORSE FOR PEOPLE TO BE SURPRISED BY WHAT THEY SEE. >> Dr. Darien: IF YOU CAN MAKE THEM LAUGH THEY'LL TRUST YOU TO CRY. SPEAKING OF FRIENDS THAT MAKE YOU LAUGH TRUST TO CRY, CONRAD-U PLAY RORY. LIKE MANY OF US WHO HAVE THESE TYPES OF FRIENDS, OBLIVIOUS TO THE WORLD BUT ALSO JUST NOT CONSCIOUS FULLY OF THEIR PRIVILEGE. >> EXCUSE ME. WOW. GOOD MORNING. >> Dr. Darien: THE CHARACTER ACTING THAT YOU WERE MADE ME FEEL AS IN I WAS IN THERE WITH YOU WATCHING YOU IN THOSE CLIPS WITH MEL. WHAT MAKES RORY A GOOD PARTNER FOR MEL? >> I MEAN, YOU ALWAYS NEED THAT PERSON THAT BALANCE YOU OUT. SO IF THERE'S SOMEBODY WHO PLAYS BY THE RULES AND IS VERY MUCH SAFE, YOU NEED TO HAVE A FRIEND THAT IS GOING TO TAKE RISKS, THAT IS ADVENTUROUS, THAT IS GOING TO PUSH YOU TO GET OUTSIDE YOUR COMFORT ZONE. I THINK WE ALL HAVE THOSE PEOPLE IN OUR LIVES. >> DeMarco: EVA PLAYS BY THE RULES ALL THE TIME. SHE STILL DRIVES WITH LITERALLY BOTH HANDS ON THE STEERING WHEEL. >> Eva: THREE AND TEN. >> OH, YEAH, THEY CHANGED THEM. IT USED TO BE 10 AND 12 -- OH. NO. DON'T LISTEN TO ME. I'M SORRY. THAT'S BAD ADVICE. >> DeMarco: NATASHA, YOU'RE THE EXECUTIVE PRODUCER AND YOU SPENT SOME TIME TAKING A LOOK AT THE DIFFERENCE BETWEEN LONELINESS AND BEING ALONE. >> YEAH. >> DeMarco: WHAT DID YOU DISCOVER? >> WELL, FOR THE LONGEST TIME I HAD DYING ALONE AS MY BIGGEST FEAR. BUT THANKFULLY THROUGH A LOT OF THERAPY I REALIZED I WAS AFRAID OF THE WRONG THING BECAUSE WE CAN'T CONTROL IF WE DIE ALONE BUT WE CAN CONTROL WHETHER OR NOT WE DIE LONELY. AND THE ANTIDOTE TO LONELINESS IS VULNERABILITY AND OPENING YOURSELF UP. AND SO I WANTED TO WRITE A CHARACTER THAT WAS GOING THROUGH THAT PROCESS OF LETTING GO, OF SORT OF THE ROMANTICIZED IDEAL OF WHAT SHOULD BE AND REALLY EMBRACING WHAT HER LIFE IS AND FINDING THE LOVE AROUND HER. >> Eva: OKAY, CONRAD, YOU'RE ALSO REALLY BUSY RIGHT NOW BECAUSE YOU'RE IN "OH MARY" ON BROADWAY WHICH IS LIKE THE HOTTEST TICKET IN TOWN TO GET RIGHT NOW. >> YEAH. >> DeMarco: HE'S LIKE KEEP GOING. >> HILLARY CLINTON WAS AT THE SHOW LAST NIGHT WITH KACEY MUSGRAVES. JUST, YEAH, JUST CHILL. CASUAL SUNDAY. >> HE'S THE PEOPLE'S LINCOLN. >> Eva: YOU PLAY LINCOLN? >> YEAH. OBVIOUSLY I PLAY ABRAHAM LINCOLN.

WE WENT ON A HINGE DATE. AND -- >> YEAH. >> NOW I'M NOT GOING TO DIE ALONE. >> THERE YOU GO. WE HAD TWO MARRIAGES COME OUT OF THE SHOW PRODUCTION. >> YEAH. >> NOT ME. SO IF ANYONE'S OUT THERE -- >> YES. BUT THESE THINGS HAPPEN IN THREES. SO ONE,TWO, THREE. OH, PETER. YOU'RE ON CAMERA. >> HE'S SO CUTE. >> HE'S SO SHY. SO HE'S PROBABLY DYING RIGHT NOW. >> DeMarco: YOU GUYS ARE A TON OF FUN. >> Eva: CONRAD, NATASHA, YOU ALL HAVE BEEN SO MUCH FUN TODAY. THANK YOU SO MUCH.

AND SEE WHY THE NEW YORK CALLS IT A NEWS PODCAST WORTH LISTENING TO START HERE. ABC IS MAKE IT YOUR DAILY FIRST LISTEN. NOW THAT'S With so much at stake. So much on the line, more Americans turn here than any other news cast, ABC News World News Tonight, with David Muir. America's number one, most watched news cast across all of television, First thing in the morning. There's a lot going on. We're still in a flash flood warning to catch you up with what happened overnight, clashing over National Security. What's GOOD AFTERNOON EVERYBODY. I'M KAYNA WHITWORTH AND WE ARE COMING ON THE AIR RIGHT NOW BECAUSE ABC NEWS HAS JUST LEARNED THAT LEGENDARY ACTOR JAMES EARL JONES HAS DIED. HE'S AN ACTOR. MANY OF YOU ARE FAMILIAR WITH. HE WAS KNOWN FOR HIS POWERFUL STAGE AND ON FILM. HE WAS DEFINED BY HIS BOOMING VOICE, THE VOICE OF DARTH VADER IN THE STAR WARS FRANCHISE, HIS UNFORGETTABLE ROLE IN THE FIELD OF DREAMS, THE VOICE OF MUFASA IN THE LION KING, THE WINNER OF TWO TONY AWARDS AND THE COMMANDING PERFORMANCE THAT HE HAD CERTAINLY IN ANY ROLE, I WANT TO BRING IN. ABC NEWS CHRIS CONNELLY FOR MORE ON THIS. AND CHRIS, AGAIN, WE'RE TALKING ABOUT HIS LEGENDARY PERFORMANCES HERE, ONE THAT REALLY STANDS OUT TO ME, OF COURSE, AS WELL IS THE SANDLOT. >> WELL, CAN YOU REALLY HIT THE NOSE RIGHT ON THE HEAD? I MEAN, I THINK HE'S A FIGURE. JAMES EARL JONES IS A FIGURE OF TOWERING SIGNIFICANCE IN THE HISTORY OF AMERICAN MOVIEMAKING. AND ON THE STAGE AS WELL. I MEAN, HE WAS AN ACTOR OF JUST UNMATCHED POWER AND AUTHORITY, NOT JUST HIS VOICE THAT YOU ALLUDED TO, THAT WE HEARD IN FILMS LIKE THE LION KING AND OF COURSE, AS DARTH VADER IN THE STAR WARS MOVIES, BUT IN HIS BEARING AS WELL, IN THE WAY HE COMMANDED THE STAGE. I REMEMBER SEEING HIM IN A BROADWAY SHOW THAT KIND OF TRANSFORMED HIS CAREER, I GUESS WHEN HE STARTED IN THE GREAT WHITE HOPE IN 1968 AND WON HIS FIRST TONY AWARD FOR THAT, AND WENT ON TO PLAY THAT ROLE ON SCREEN AS WELL. BUT YOU THINK OF HIM IN SOME OF THE FINEST, STAGE PERFORMANCES OF HIS TIME IN THINGS LIKE OTHELLO AND CAT ON A HOT TIN ROOF. BUT SO MANY WONDERFUL MOVIES AS WELL. THINGS LIKE SNEAKERS AND MATEWAN. SO IT'S A PHENOMENAL LOSS FOR THE AMERICAN CINEMA AND A VOICE AND AN ACTOR WHO WILL ALWAYS BE REMEMBERED, ALWAYS BE REMEMBERED. >> AND HE WAS ONE THAT STARRED IN MOVIES THAT WE STUDIED IN COLLEGE AS WELL, LIKE DOCTOR STRANGELOVE. AND WE'RE GETTING WORD IN FROM HIS AGENT AS WELL, THAT HE WAS WIDELY REGARDED AS ONE OF THE GREATEST STAGE AND SCREEN ACTORS, BOTH IN HIS NATIVE USA AND INTERNATIONALLY. AS WELL. JAMES EARL JONES WAS JUST 93 YEARS OLD. CHRIS CONNOLLY, THANK YOU FOR BEING HERE WITH US. WE NOW RETURN YOU TO YOUR REGULARLY SCHEDULED PROGRAMING. OUR COVERAGE CONTINUES RIGHT HERE ON ABC NEWS LIVE. OF COURSE, DAVID MUIR WILL BE BACK HERE FOR WORLD NEWS TONIGHT, WHERE THEY WILL CONTINUE TO FOLLOW THIS STORY AS WELL. I'M KAYNA WHITWORTH EVERYBODY. HAVE A GOOD DAY. >> THIS HAS BEEN A Baywatch is a fantasy be watch. The sexy Baywatch, was the number one show in the world when you hear that theme song, how much can I was going to a meeting that stuff alive? It was a wild time and I was a wild chick Jason Momoa exploded. Common was a bombshell. Anderson was an icon Pamela was this sweet girl from Canada? AA, who came to get the American dream?

You're streaming ABC News a lot. YOU'RE STREAMING ABC NEWS LIVE . HELLO, EVERYBODY. I'M KAYNA WHITWORTH. I'M IN WITH YOU TONIGHT. AND WE BEGIN HERE WITH BREAKING NEWS. JAMES EARL, THE REVERED ACTOR WHO VOICED A STAR WARS VILLAIN DARTH VADER MUFASA IN THE LION KING AND STARRED IN FIELD OF DREAMS AND. MANY OTHER FILMS, YOU KNOW, AND LOVE HAS PASSED AWAY AT THE AGE OF 93. NOW, HE HAD BEEN WIDELY REGARDED AS ONE OF THE GREATEST SCREEN ACTORS. HE WON AN EGOT AS WELL, AND HE RECEIVED PRIMETIME EMMY AWARDS, A GRAMMY AWARD, AND THREE TONY AWARDS TO ROUND OUT THAT EGOT ARE ABC NEWS CONTRIBUTOR. MIKE MUSE IS JOINING ME NOW WITH MORE ON THIS. AND YOU KNOW WHAT MIKE WHEN YOU START TO READ THROUGH HIS LEGACY IT JUST IT HITS YOU RIGHT IN THE HEART BECAUSE HE'S THE STAR OF SO MANY OF THESE FILMS THAT WE KNOW AND LOVE THAT CARRY ON THROUGH GENERATIONS. I WATCHED SANDLOT WITH MY SONS ABSOLUTELY AND I'M SMILING BECAUSE. THIS IS A LIFE TO BE CELEBRATED, RIGHT? WHAT AN INCREDIBLE HUMAN. HE PLAYED THE VOICE OF A LION, BUT YET HE A LION AND HIS HEART AND HIS PRESENT AND HIS DAYS. HE HAD THIS REALLY GREAT PHILOSOPHY ABOUT HIM BEING A JOURNEYMAN AS AN ACTOR. AND KIND OF HE SAID, NOTHING IS YOUR FINAL THING. NOTHING IS YOUR GREATEST THING . >> NOTHING IS YOUR WORST THING. HOW INCREDIBLE OF A CONSTITUTION TO KEEP THOSE GUARD RULES, RIGHT? EVERY ONE OF US WHO IS LISTENING AND THINKING ABOUT THAT, THAT LIFE IS A JOURNEY THAT YOU'RE CONSTANTLY ON AND YOU'RE NOT. HE WAS THE VOICE OF IN SO MANY GREAT FILMS THAT I LOVED, INCLUDING THE LION KING COMING TO AMERICA. HE SO MUCH JOY, THE RANGE THAT HE HAD GAINED AND TO ABLE TO PLAY SO MANY VERSATILE PARTS FROM SCREEN AND STAGE ALL THE WAY TO SHAKESPEARE BY PLAYING OTHELLO AND MACBETH THE RICHNESS OF HIS VOICE MATCHED THE RICHNESS OF, HIS ARTISTRY, AND THE FACT THAT HE WENT INTO ACTING SUCH A GIFT FOR ALL OF US. BECAUSE THIS IS A MAN WHO HAD SEVERAL OTHER TALENTS THAT HE COULD HAVE PURSUED, RIGHT? I MEAN, HE WAS EVEN A PRE-MED MAJOR AT ONE POINT. >> I MEAN, YOU MENTIONED PRE-MED. YOU KNOW, YOU AND I ALWAYS LIKE TO ENJOY MY ALMA MATER, ROSA OF MICHIGAN. I WAS JUST WATCHING HIS VIDEO WEEK. I THINK POSSIBLY ONE OF HIS FINAL WORKS WAS. HE CREATED A VOICE OVER TO INTRODUCE THE UNIVERSITY OF MICHIGAN FOOTBALL TEAM FOR THEIR NATIONAL CHAMPIONSHIP, TO INTRODUCE HIM ONTO THE FIELD FOR THEIR FIRST GAME AGAINST FRESNO STATE LAST WEEKEND. SO THE FACT THAT I WAS JUST WATCHING THAT AND HERE WE ARE TODAY CELEBRATING HIS LIFE WHEN IT COMES TO THAT IS A VERY SPECIAL MOMENT TO CAME. AND WHAT WAS SPECIAL WAS THAT HE MADE HIS BROADWAY DEBUT IN 1958 AT THE COURT THEATER. I WAS THERE IN 2002 WHEN THEY RENAMED THE COURT THE JAMES EARL JONES THEATER. AND SO THAT WAS JUST SUCH A POWERFUL MOMENT TO KNOW THAT NOT ONLY IS HIS LEGACY GOING TO LIVE THROUGH FILM AND TELEVISION AND HAVING PEOPLE ALWAYS DISCUSS HIS LEGACY, BUT HIS NAME WILL ALWAYS BE ON THE LIGHTS. AND AS YOU KNOW, THE KEY TO A GREAT ACTOR IS IF THEY CAN HANDLE THE STAGE OF IF THEY CAN HEM THE LIGHT. AND SO THE FACT THAT HIS NAME WILL ALWAYS BE IN THE LIGHT WITH THE JAMES EARL JONES THEATER IS JUST SUCH A GREAT SIGNIFICANCE OF WHO THIS LION WAS AND IS WHEN IT COMES THE ARTS. >> WOW. AND NAME IN LIGHTS AND A VOICE REALLY STAYS IN OUR HEARTS. MIKE MYERS. I WAS SO GLAD TO BE ABLE TO TALK THIS WITH YOU. IT'S REALLY IMPORTANT TO SHARE HIS LEGACY. MIKE, THANKS FOR BEING WITH US TODAY. THANK YOU. AND OF COURSE, WE WANT TO NOW GO TO THE RACE TO THE WHITE HOUSE. WE KNOW IT'S A BIG STORY HERE TODAY, JUST ONE DAY OUT FROM WHAT IS SHAPING TO BE THE MOST CONSEQUENTIAL MOMENT OF THE 2024 CAMPAIGN AND WHAT WILL LIKELY BE THE FIRST AND ONLY DEBATE BETWEEN PRESIDENT KAMALA HARRIS AND FORMER PRESIDENT DONALD TRUMP. TOMORROW'S DEBATE MODERATED. ABC NEWS, WILL MARK THE FIRST TIME THAT TRUMP AND HARRIS WILL MEET FACE TO FACE OF THE 90 MINUTE SHOWDOWN. THE STAKES ARE ONLY GETTING HIGHER WITH THIS RACE LOCKED IN A DEAD HEAT. HARRIS HAS BEEN CAMPED OUT IN PITTSBURGH THURSDAY, UNDERSCORING JUST HOW CRITICAL THAT BATTLEGROUND STATE IS IN THIS RACE. OF COURSE, IT'S HAPPENING AS FORMER PRESIDENT TRUMP HAS BEEN PREPARING BY HOLDING SOME INFORMAL POLICY SESSIONS WITH A SMALL GROUP OF ADVISERS INCLUDING CONGRESSMAN MATT GAETZ AND FORMER DEMOCRATIC REP TULSI GABBARD. NOW, WE ARE TOLD THAT GATES HAS BEEN FIRING TEST QUESTIONS AT TRUMP AROUND SOME OF THESE TOUGHER ISSUES, LIKE HIS LEGAL TROUBLES, HIS STANCE ON ABORTION. FOR MORE ON THIS, I WANT TO BRING IN ABC NEWS ELIZABETH SCHULZE AND ABC NEWS JAY O'BRIEN, WHO'S IN PHILADELPHIA FOR US. SO, ELIZABETH, SO TOMORROW WILL BE THE FIRST TIME THAT VP HARRIS AND FORMER PRESIDENT TRUMP WILL MEET ON THE DEBATE STAGE, REALLY THE FIRST TIME THEY MEET AT ALL. >> SO WHAT ARE YOU ABOUT THE MESSAGE THAT HARRIS WANTS TO SEND TO THOSE UNDECIDED AND VOTERS THAT WILL BE WATCHING AND THOSE UNDECIDED VOTERS SO CRITICAL IN DETERMINING ULTIMATELY WHO WILL WIN THIS ELECTION? BUT WE DID JUST HEAR VICE PRESIDENT HARRIS CAME ON HER WAY TO PHILADELPHIA FOR THE DEBATE. SHE WAS ASKED BY REPORTERS AS SHE WAS BOARDING HER PLANE. HOW SHE'S FEELING, SHE SIMPLY SAID GOOD AND GAVE A THUMBS UP. SHE'S CERTAINLY TRYING TO PROJECT THAT CONFIDENCE AS WE ARE NOW, JUST ABOUT 24 HOURS, 4 HOURS, 40 HOURS OVER THAT OUT FROM THIS CRITICAL MOMENT. >> BUT SHE HAS PREPARING INTENSELY FOR THIS MOMENT, HUDDLING WITH HER STAFF, DOING DEBATES, EVEN SETTING UP A STAGE WITH TV LIGHTING, USING A LOT. THE SAME ADVISERS WHO ADVISED HILLARY CLINTON WHEN SHE DEBATED TRUMP BACK IN 16. >> THE CHALLENGE FOR HARRIS HERE IS TO ALSO DEFINE HERSELF, TO THOSE UNDECIDED VOTERS WE SAW OVER THE WEEKEND IN THAT NEW, "NEW YORK TIMES" SIENA POLL, 28% OF VOTERS SAID THEY STILL NEED TO LEARN ABOUT THE VICE PRESIDENT, DESPITE THE FACT THAT SHE'S BEEN VICE PRESIDENT OVER THE FOUR YEARS. SO DEFINING HERSELF, HER POSITIONS, HER POLICIES, BUT ALSO TO GO ON THE ATTACK AGAINST FORMER PRESIDENT TRUMP. WE HAVE HEARD HER CAMPAIGN SAY REPEATEDLY SHE WANTS TO PROSECUTE THE CASE AGAINST TRUMP AND, EVEN TRY TO GET UNDER HER SKIN KATE. >> WELL, THAT'LL BE INTERESTING . SEE HOW THAT PLAYS OUT, JAKE. CONTRARY, THOUGH, TO PUBLIC CLAIM THAT HE DOESN'T NEED ANY DEBATE PREP, DONALD TRUMP, IT SOUNDS LIKE HE'S HOLDING THESE PRETTY SERIOUS INFORMAL SESSIONS WITH HIS TEAM OF ADVISERS. >> BUT REALLY FOCUSING IN ON POLICY. >> SO WHAT'S HIS STRATEGY HERE? WELL, IT'S HOW TRUMP PREPARED FOR THE LAST DEBATE AGAINST PRESIDENT BIDEN. >> REMEMBER HE WILL TELL YOU THAT HE DOESN'T DO DEBATE PREP. HE INSTEAD MEETS WITH HIS ADVISERS. BUT IF YOU LOOK AT THE ADVISERS WHO HE HAS IN THE ROOM WITH HIM ,IT'S INSTRUCTIVE AS TO DONALD TRUMP'S OVERALL DEBATE STRATEGY . IN THE ROOM WITH HIM IS TULSI GABBARD, FORMER DEMOCRATIC CONGRESSWOMAN WHO, FACED OFF AGAINST KAMALA HARRIS ON THE DEBATE STAGE DURING THE DEMOCRATIC IN 2019, SHE HAD POINTED LINES OF ATTACK AGAINST HARRIS, TALKING ABOUT HARRIS' CAREER AS A PROSECUTOR IN FRANCISCO. SO IT GIVES YOU PERHAPS A LITTLE BIT OF A WINDOW INTO AT LEAST ONE OF DONALD TRUMP'S LINES OF ATTACK AGAINST HARRIS. AND THEN HE GOT HE HAS, OF COURSE, AS YOU MENTIONED, MATT GAETZ IN THE ROOM WITH HIM, TO MATT GATES, A CONSERVATIVE BOMB THROWER, REPUBLICAN CONGRESSMAN, AND HE PERHAPS PLAYS INTO DONALD TRUMP'S MORE BASER INSTINCTS TO PUNCH, TO COUNTERPUNCH. >> BUT AS ELIZABETH NOTED, KAMALA HARRIS IS A PRETTY IN-YOUR-FACE DEBATER AS WELL. >> AND AS YOU SAID EARLIER, BOTH OF THESE ARE TWO PEOPLE WHO HAVE NEVER BEEN IN THE SAME ROOM TOGETHER. THEY HAVE NEVER MET. AND I CAN TELL YOU, I JUST TOOK A LOOK INSIDE THAT ROOM, THAT DEBATE STAGE, WHERE THOSE TWO WILL FACE OFF. AND ONE OF THE THING THAT'S ONE OF THE THINGS THAT STRIKES A LOT OF PEOPLE WHEN THEY GO IN THERE IS HOW CLOSE THE QUARTERS ARE IN THE FACT THAT DONALD TRUMP AND KAMALA HARRIS WILL BE JUST ABOUT AN ARM'S LENGTH OR TWO APART FROM EACH OTHER. THERE WAS NO LOVE LOST BETWEEN THESE CANDIDATES, DESPITE FACT THAT THEY HAVE NEVER MET. SO THE QUESTION HANGING OVER TOMORROW NIGHT AMONG A LOT OF QUESTIONS IS HOW FIERY DOES IT GET AND PERHAPS HOW QUICKLY DOES IT GET FIERY CAROL. >> OH, THAT IS REALLY INTERESTING. AND THANK FOR SORT OF GIVING US A BIRD'S EYE VIEW, IF YOU WILL, OF WHAT THAT STAGE ACTUALLY LOOKS LIKE. ELIZABETH AND JEFF, THANK YOU SO MUCH. AND OF COURSE, EVERYBODY WATCHING MAKE TO MARK IT ON YOUR CALENDAR, CLICK IT ON YOUR PHONE. ONE OF THE MOST HIGH STAKES PRESIDENTIAL DEBATE IS TOMORROW. IT'S HAPPENING RIGHT HERE ON ABC NEWS LIVE. THE FIRST FACE OFF BETWEEN FORMER PRESIDENT TRUMP AND VICE PRESIDENT HARRIS AGAIN TOMORROW NIGHT, 9 P.M. EASTERN. WE'RE HEADED TO PHILLY. >> WE WILL SEE YOU THERE. ALL RIGHT. ALSO HERE TODAY, THE JUSTICE DEPARTMENT IS CHARGING TWO ALLEGED LEADERS OF A WHITE SUPREMACIST GROUP WITH A HOST OF FEDERAL CRIMES, INCLUDING SOLICITATION, THE KILLING OF A FEDERAL OFFICER DOXING FEDERAL OFFICIALS AND MAKING INTERSTATE THREATS. NOW, ACCORDING TO THIS INDICTMENT, DALLAS HUMBERT AND MATTHEW ALLISON ARE LEADERS OF THIS GROUP THAT GOES BY THE NAME OF GRAHAM. NOW, OFFICIALS SAY THAT THEY WANTED TO IGNITE A RACE WAR IN THE UNITED STATES AND INCITE FOLLOWERS TO CARRY OUT TERROR ATTACKS AROUND THE WORLD. ABC JUSTICE DEPARTMENT REPORTER ALEX MALLIN IS JOINING ME FOR MORE ON THIS. ALEX, THANK YOU FOR BEING HERE. SO FIRST OF ALL, WHAT ARE WE LEARNING ABOUT THIS GROUP AGAIN, THE NAME TERROR? GRAHAM AND WHY IS IT LEADERS HERE BEING INDICTED? >> WHAT MORE CAN YOU TELL US? YEAH, I THINK ONE OF THE MORE FASCINATING THINGS ABOUT THIS INDICTMENT, DANA, IS THAT THIS GROUP, GRAHAM IS CHARGED AS A MULTI-NATIONAL TERRORIST GROUP, BUT IT'S BASICALLY FULLY FUNCTIONING ONLINE ON THE SOCIAL MEDIA APP TELEGRAM, BUT IT'S ABLE TO FUNCTION ESSENTIALLY IN THE SHADOWS. THIS KIND OF LAYS OUT IN REAL DETAIL THIS ABOUT 37 PAGE INDICTMENT ABOUT HOW THIS GROUP ESSENTIALLY PROMOTED THINGS LIKE ON CRITICAL ENERGY FACILITIES, THINGS LIKE ASSASSINATIONS, HIGH PROFILE US POLITICIANS, INCLUDING AN UNNAMED U.S. AND ACTUALLY IT JUST DIDN'T LIMIT ITSELF TO WORDS THAT IN CERTAIN INSTANCES THIS ACTUALLY RESULTED IN THREE SEPARATE ATTACKS OR ATTEMPTED ATTACK AND BOTH IN THE U.S. AND ABROAD THREE SEPARATE ATTACKS. >> AND HOW IS THE DOJ SAYING THAT THESE SUSPECTS ALLEGEDLY COMMUNICATED HERE ON TELEGRAM? >> YEAH. TELEGRAM IS ESSENTIALLY A SOCIAL MEDIA APP. THE WAYS THAT THEY COMMUNICATED WERE ESSENTIALLY THEY WOULD TAKE IN MANIFESTOS FROM HIGH PROFILE RACIST MASS SHOOTERS, THINGS LIKE THE BUFFALO TOP SHOOTER, THE SHOOTER AT THE EL PASO WALMART, ALL MOTIVATED BY THIS GOAL OF CREATING A WHITE ETHNO STATE IN THE U.S. AND THEY'D POST IT. THEY THEY'D SHARE TIPS ON HOW TO CARRY OUT FOLLOW UP ATTACKS. THEY IN CERTAIN INSTANCES, WOULD POST, YOU KNOW, HIGH PROFILE TARGETS OR CERTAIN, YOU KNOW, THERE BE PEOPLE WHO WOULD SAY, YOU KNOW, I'M I'M DEBATING GOING THROUGH THIS ATTACK AND MEMBERS THE GROUP WOULD CHEER THEM ON AGAIN. WE'VE SEEN THESE TERRORIST NETWORKS OPERATE IN CERTAIN INSTANCES, YOU KNOW, OUT OF BASES OR SOMETHING LIKE THIS ENTIRELY EXISTED ONLINE. AND AGAIN, IT HAD A GLOBAL IMPACT. THERE WAS ONE CASE IN TURKEY WHERE AN INDIVIDUAL WHO WAS INVOLVED WITH THE GROUP STABBED FIVE PEOPLE OUTSIDE OF A MOSQUE AND LIVE STREAMED IT. ANOTHER INSTANCE IN SLOVAKIA, WHERE A MAN WHO WAS INVOLVED WITH THE GROUP KILLED PEOPLE OUTSIDE AN LGBTQ BAR AND THEN TOOK HIS OWN LIFE. BUT BEFORE HE TOOK HIS OWN LIFE. HE SENT HIS MANIFESTO TO THIS TELEGRAM. TELEGRAM. SO AGAIN, IT'S JUST REALLY PUTTING ON FULL DISPLAY THIS KIND OF UNHEARD OF NOW TRANSNATIONAL TERRORIST GROUP THAT THEY INDICTED THE TWO LEADERS OF. AGAIN, ONE LIVING IN CALIFORNIA AND, ONE LIVING IN IDAHO, KENYA, CALIFORNIA AND IDAHO. >> AND IF YOU COULD, JUST QUICKLY, I KNOW YOU TALKED A LITTLE BIT ABOUT SOME OF THESE CRIMES THAT THEY'RE ALLEGED TO HAVE DONE, BUT WHAT MORE DO WE KNOW ABOUT THIS REACH THAT THEY HAVE OVERSEAS AND HOW IS THAT BEING CONDUCTED ONLINE? >> YEAH, THINK THAT WHAT THEY REALLY WANTED TO ATTRACT IS THIS IDEA OF WHITE STATES PASSING OR POPPING UP ALL AROUND THE WORLD. WHITE SUPREMACY IS OBVIOUSLY ONE OF THE OLDEST FORMS AND THE ENTIRE WORLD OF HATE AND ANTI-SEMITIC HATE AS WELL. IT STRETCHED INTO NOT JUST ANTI LGBT ANTI-SEMITIC ANTI-BLACK IT IS REALLY AND IF YOU WATCH HOW GROUP KIND OF COMMUNICATES IN THIS INDICTMENT IT'S REALLY DESPICABLE FORM AN OLD EVIL IN THIS WORLD. BUT THE GOAL AGAIN THIS ACCELERATE THIS TYPE OF GOAL IS TO CREATE SO MUCH CONFLICT THAT THEY BELIEVE INCITE RACE WARS AND HAVE REALLY PERVERTED KIND OF IDEA OF UP WHITE ETHNO STATES. >> WELL, ALEX MALLIN, THANK YOU FOR BEING HERE WITH US TODAY. WE APPRECIATE YOU AS ALWAYS. WE ALSO NOW HAVE SOME NEW ARE STARTING TO EMERGE FROM THAT DEADLY GEORGIA SCHOOL SHOOTING LAST WEEK. IT KILLED PEOPLE AND INJURED AT LEAST NINE OTHERS. THE SUSPECT'S AUNT TELLING ABC THAT HIS MOTHER CALLED APALACHEE HIGH SCHOOL, WARNING THEM OF, QUOTE, EXTREME EMERGENCY INVOLVING HER SON. NOW, THE SHERIFF'S IS SHUTTING DOWN THAT STATEMENT SAYING THAT THE SCHOOL DISTRICT CLAIMS, THEY HAD NO RECORD OF BEING NOTIFIED. >> JOINING ME NOW IS ABC NEWS FAITH ABUBEY ALONG WITH ABC NEWS CONTRIBUTOR AND FORMER FBI AGENT BRAD GARRETT. THESE ARE REALLY IMPORTANT DETAILS HERE. SO, FAITH, WHAT MORE DO WE KNOW ABOUT THIS ALLEGED DESPERATE PLEA RIGHT BY THIS? >> AND DO WE KNOW ANYTHING ABOUT HOW THE SCHOOL WAS REACTING IN THIS MOMENT? WELL, THERE ARE STILL A LOT OF QUESTIONS WHETHER THAT CALL ACTUALLY HAPPENED AND IF IT DID, HOW THE SCHOOL DISTRICT AND SCHOOL OFFICIALS HERE REACTED BEFORE THAT SHOOTING LAST WEEK, WEDNESDAY BUT THE FAMILY IS INSISTING THAT THAT CALL DID HAPPEN. IT HAPPENED ACCORDING TO THEM. ABOUT A HALF HOUR BEFORE THE SHOOTING HAPPENED, THE MOTHER ALLEGEDLY THE SCHOOL SPOKE WITH THE COUNSELOR AND TOLD THEM TO GO FIND HER SON BECAUSE THERE WAS THAT EXTREME EMERGENCY, WHICH YOU JUST KNOW NOTED THERE. "THE WASHINGTON POST", WHICH FIRST REPORTED THIS AND THE DETAILS HAVE NOW BEEN CONFIRMED TO ABC NEWS FROM THE FAMILY, BASICALLY SAID THAT DURING THAT TEN MINUTE CALL, THE COUNSELOR ACTUALLY MENTIONED TO THE MOTHER OF THE SUSPECT THAT HE HAD SPOKEN ABOUT A SCHOOL SHOOTING EARLIER THAT MORNING. AND SO THERE WERE A LOT OF QUESTIONS ABOUT WHO KNEW, WHO KNEW WHAT AND WHEN DID KNOW IT. THE SCHOOL DISTRICT IS STILL NOT COMMENTING AT THIS POINT. THE SHERIFF IS TELLING ME, THOUGH, THAT HE BELIEVES THAT THIS IS MISINFORMATION BY THE FAMILY, THAT YOU'RE TRYING TO PROTECT THE SUSPECT. BUT HE DID SAY THEY ARE LOOKING AT THE TIMELINE OF EVENTS TO FIGURE OUT WHETHER ANY CALLS CAME IN THAT MORNING AND IF IT DID, WHAT WERE THE DETAILS OF THOSE CALLS? >> MISINFORMATION INTERESTING. >> AND SO, BRAD, LOOK, THE SHERIFF'S OFFICE AGAIN IS FAITH HAS TALKED ABOUT IT HERE, SORT OF REITERATED THAT THE MOTHER'S CLAIM THAT SHE NOTIFIED THE SCHOOL AT THIS CAN'T BE CORROBORATED. BUT THIS IS FASCINATING AS THEY'RE STARTING TO APART THIS INVESTIGATION, THE THOUGHT THAT THEY MIGHT BE TRYING TO PROTECT THIS SUSPECT HERE. AND IF, IN FACT, BRAD, THE SCHOOL WAS WARNED. HOW WOULD THAT IMPACT THIS INVESTIGATION? >> SO LET'S START WITH WHETHER THEY WERE WARNED OR NOT. >> OBVIOUSLY, WE DON'T KNOW, BUT IT WOULD BE VERY EASY TO PROVE THIS KID. >> FIRST OF ALL, YOU CAN EASILY THROUGH PHONE SYSTEM IS OUT THERE, PULL UP WHO CALLED INTO THE SCHOOL? WHERE DID IT GO? IF IT WENT TO THE MAIN OFFICE, WHERE DID IT GET TRANSFERRED TO? I MEAN, IT'S A BIG SCHOOL, BUT THE STAFF WILL KNOW IF CAME IN AND IF THEY, IN FACT, TRANSFERRED IT TO A COUNSELOR. IF THEY DID, WHO IS THE COUNSELOR? NOW, I GUARANTEE YOU, ALL THOSE PEOPLE BEEN INTERVIEWED AT THIS POINT FOR THE LAW ENFORCEMENT TO BASICALLY SAY THEY CAN FIND A RECORD OF IT, I'M GOING TO PRESUME MEANS THEY COULDN'T FIND A COUNSELOR THAT TOOK THAT CALL. SO, YOU KNOW, DID SHE CALL THE WRONG SCHOOL? THERE'S SO MANY UNKNOWNS HERE FROM OUR PERSPECTIVE OF, YOU KNOW, THE IDEA THAT SHE'S TRYING TO COVER FOR HER SON. I DON'T KNOW THAT I BUY THAT. BUT MAYBE. I MEAN, IT WAS A PRETTY SILLY THING TO DO BASED ON THE FACT THAT HE GOT CAUGHT THERE WITH A WEAPON AND WITNESSES SAW HIM SHOOT. BUT BE THAT WOULD IT BE THAT ALL HAS TO BE SORTED OUT? THE SHERIFF IS CORRECT. YOU GOT TO YOU GOT TO TAKE THIS INFORMATION TAMPA DOWN. >> ABSOLUTELY. AND OF COURSE, NOTING HERE THERE WAS SOME RED FLAGS. THE SUSPECT HAD BEEN ON THE FBI'S RADAR RADAR SINCE 2023. AND NOW THE SUSPECT'S FATHER IS CHARGED WITH FOUR COUNTS OF FELONY MURDER AS WELL. IT SOUNDS LIKE MORE CHARGES MIGHT BE HIS WAY. I'LL FAITH ABUBEY AND BRAD GARRETT. OUR THANKS TO BOTH OF YOU. AND COMING UP NEXT HOUR ON ABC NEWS LIVE, KATE MIDDLETON TODAY GIVING AN UPDATE ON HER BATTLE WITH CANCER SIX MONTHS AFTER DIAGNOSIS.

WE'RE JUST ONE DAY AWAY FROM THE FIRST PRESIDENTIAL DEBATE BETWEEN KAMALA HARRIS AND FORMER PRESIDENT DONALD TRUMP. MODERATED ABC NEWS. THIS, OF COURSE, COULD BE A DEFINING MOMENT IN THIS 2024 CAMPAIGN. WE HAVE MORE ON THE CANDIDATES STRATEGIES AS THEY PREPARE FOR TOMORROW. ALSO IN OUR SPOTLIGHT, A SHOCKING JUSTICE DEPARTMENT INDICTMENT ALLEGING WHAT'S BEING CALLED A TERROR GRAND CHAT GROUP WANTING TO IGNITE A RACE WAR IN THE UNITED AND INFLUENCE ITS FOLLOWERS TO CARRY OUT TERROR ATTACKS ATTACKS. ALL RIGHT. IN TODAY'S BIG STORY WE ARE JUST ONE DAY OUT FROM WHAT IS SHAPING UP TO BE THE MOST CONSEQUENTIAL MOMENT OF THE 2024 CAMPAIGN AND WHAT WILL LIKELY BE THE FIRST AND ONLY DEBATE BETWEEN VICE PRESIDENT KAMALA HARRIS AND FORMER PRESIDENT DONALD TRUMP. OF COURSE, TOMORROW'S DEBATE MODERATED BY ABC NEWS. AND IT WILL MARK THE FIRST TIME THAT TRUMP AND HARRIS WILL MEET FACE TO FACE AHEAD OF THIS 90 MINUTE SHOWDOWN. THE STAKES ONLY GETTING HIGHER WITH THIS RACE LOCKED IN A DEAD HEAT. >> HARRIS HAS BEEN CAMPED OUT IN PITTSBURGH THURSDAY, CERTAINLY UNDERSCORING JUST HOW CRITICAL THAT BATTLEGROUND STATE IS IN THE RACE. THIS, OF COURSE, AS FORMER PRESIDENT TRUMP HAS BEEN PREPARING BY HOLDING INFORMAL POLICY SESSIONS WITH A SMALL GROUP OF ADVISERS, INCLUDING CONGRESSMAN MATT GAETZ AND FORMER DEMOCRATIC REP TULSI GABBARD. NOW, WE'RE TOLD THAT GATES HAS BEEN FIRING TEST QUESTIONS AT TRUMP AROUND OF THESE TOUGHER ISSUES FOR HIM, LIKE HIS LEGAL TROUBLES AND HIS STANCE ON ABORTION. JOINING ME FOR MORE ON THIS IS OUR ABC NEWS WASHINGTON BUREAU CHIEF POLITICAL DIRECTOR RICK KLEIN. AND ALL MY GRATITUDE FOR YOU FOR TAKING THE TIME TO BE WITH US TODAY. RICK, THANK YOU SO MUCH. SO LET'S FIRST JUMP RIGHT INTO THE FASCINATING LOGISTICS OF DEBATE, RIGHT? >> THIS IS THE FIRST TIME THESE TWO WILL EVEN BE MEETING EACH OTHER. AND WE WERE TOLD BY JAY O'BRIEN THAT THE PODIUMS ARE PRETTY CLOSE WITHIN ARM'S REACH OF EACH OTHER. SET THE STAGE FOR US. >> YEAH, IT IS GOING TO BE CLOSE QUARTERS ON THAT STAGE. THEY'RE GOING TO BE VERY CLOSE AND IT'S JUST GOING TO BE THE TWO OF THEM AND THE TWO MODERATORS IN ADDITION TO SOME SOME SOME CREW IN THE ROOM. IT IS GOING TO BE VERY INTIMATE ,VERY, VERY CLOSE QUARTERS. AND IT'S GOING TO BE HARD NOT TO BE STRUCK, I THINK, BY THE THE THE HISTORY OF MOMENT, THE FACT THAT THEY'VE NEVER BEEN IN THE SAME ROOM TOGETHER. AND IT CHANGES THIS KIND OF HIGHEST PROFILE WAY ALL AT ONCE IN WHAT'S GOING TO BE A REALLY WILD AND FASCINATING 90 MINUTES TO WATCH. >> I MEAN, CERTAINLY MUST WATCH TELEVISION. AND WE KNOW, RICK, THAT DONALD TRUMP ESSENTIALLY, YOU WANT TO CALL HIM THE EXPERT IN THIS DEBATE SCENARIO. I MEAN, THIS IS HIS SEVENTH TELEVISED PRESIDENTIAL DEBATE IN THE GENERAL ELECTION, WHICH IS A RECORD NUMBER ANY CANDIDATE. MEANWHILE, THIS IS KAMALA HARRIS' FIRST DEBATE AS A PRESIDENTIAL NOMINEE. HOW ARE THEY PREPARING RIGHT NOW? >> YEAH, I MEAN, I THINK YOU SHOULD REMEMBER THAT SHE DID DEBATE VICE PENCE IN THE FOUR YEARS AGO AND SHE DID DEBATE PEOPLE IN THE DEMOCRATIC PRIMARIES. IN FACT, SOME OF THOSE PEOPLE THAT HELPED PREPARE HER ARE NOW INVOLVED IN DEBATE PREP IN VARIOUS WAYS, INCLUDING TULSI GABBARD, THE FORMER DEMOCRATIC CONGRESSWOMAN FROM HAWAII, WAS PART OF THE THE TRUMP DEBATE PREP. AND IT IS A LOT DIFFERENT. AND WE'VE BEEN TOLD ABOUT HOW THE HARRIS TEAM HAS SET UP A MOCK PODIUM IN THE ROOM THAT GOT IT TO THE SAME SPECIFICATIONS AS WE'LL HAVE SET UP INSIDE THAT BEAUTIFUL BUILDING BEHIND ME RIGHT NOW AT THE CONSTITUTION AND RUNNING THROUGH A LOT OF THINGS WITH PAUL METHOD ACTING FROM DONALD TRUMP IMPERSONATOR WHO HAPPENS TO BE A LONGTIME DEMOCRATIC STAFFER WHO'S DONE THE JOB BEFORE. ON THE OTHER SIDE, YOU KNOW, TRUMP LIKE TO SAY HE'S NOT PREPARING WHAT HE TRULY DOES. IT'S NOT WITH TULSI GABBARD IS WITH A LOT OF STAFFERS AND AIDES. IT'S MORE OF A ROLLING PREPARATION WHERE HE'S TAKING QUESTIONS AND DOING BACK AND FORTH RATHER THAN SITTING THERE FOR A FULL 90 MINUTE MOCK. BUT IT STILL IS PREPARATION, AS YOU SAID. HE HAS DONE THIS AND HE'S HAD SOME SOME SOME DO SOME OF THESE APPEARANCES THAT ARE THAT ARE VERY GOOD AND MEMORABLE FOR THAT REASON AND SOME OF THEM NOT SO MUCH. >> ALL RIGHT. >> THAT'S THE WHOLE IDEA, RIGHT FROM HIS CAMP IS FOR HIM TO NOT APPEAR UNHINGED IN MOMENT DURING THIS. LET'S TALK A LITTLE BIT ABOUT SOME OF THE POLLING, RICK, THAT WE'RE SEEING HERE, THIS STRIKING POLLING IN THE GENDER GAP. DONALD TRUMP PERFORMING AMONG MEN, KAMALA HARRIS PERFORMING WELL AMONG WOMEN. DO YOU EXPECT THAT GENDER GAP TO PLAY INTO THE CANDIDATE'S PERFORMANCES TONIGHT OR BECOME ISSUES THAT THEY TALK ABOUT IN THEIR ANSWERS? >> WELL, LOOK, THE GENDER GAPS ARE NOTHING NEW IN POLITICS, BUT THEY ARE PARTICULARLY PRONOUNCED THIS YEAR. AND IN SOME WAYS, IT LIKE THE MARGINS ARE GETTING WIDER. AND I THINK IF YOU'RE TALKING ABOUT TRUMP'S CAMPAIGN, HE KNOWS HE'S GOT A PROBLEM WITH FEMALE VOTERS. IT'S SOMETHING HE HAS TO ADDRESS. HE'S BEEN TRYING TO ADDRESS WITH SOME POLICY PROPOSALS. AND I THINK IF YOU'RE KAMALA HARRIS, YOU THAT YOU'VE GOT PARTICULAR WEAKNESSES AMONG MALE VOTERS AND THAT HAS TO PLAY INTO YOUR PREP. SO HOW DO YOU GO AT IT SPECIFICALLY SAYING, I'M GOING TO TALK ABOUT A WOMEN ARE GOING TO TALK NOW TO MEN, BUT YOUR ENTIRE CAMPAIGN IS BUILT AROUND REACHING THE KIND OF VOTERS THAT MIGHT BE DECIDING BETWEEN THE TWO CANDIDATES. AND ALSO MAYBE IT'S CRITICALLY DECIDING WHETHER OR NOT TO SHOW UP THERE. THOSE ARE THE KIND OF THE TWIN AUDIENCES THAT THE CANDIDATES WILL HAVE MIND TOMORROW. >> ALL RIGHT. THE CONCERN OF VOTER APATHY STILL REIGNS HEAVY OVER THOSE CANDIDATES. I KNOW. ALL RIGHT. LET'S TALK A LITTLE BIT ABOUT PENNSYLVANIA, IF WE CAN, FOR A MOMENT. I HEAR FROM SO MANY ANALYSTS THAT THEY THINK THIS RACE MIGHT COME DOWN TO PENNSYLVANIA, MAYBE EVEN JUST WESTERN HERE. AND OF NOTE, KAMALA HARRIS HAS BEEN CAMPED OUT. SHE'S BEEN PREPPING, BUT SHE'S ALSO BEEN MAKING THESE APPEARANCES, POPPING OUT TO A SPICE STORE, THINGS LIKE THAT. TELL ME ABOUT HOW JUST THE STATE ITSELF COMES INTO PLAY. YEAH, AND WE'RE HERE ON THE OTHER SIDE OF THE STATE, OF COURSE, PHILADELPHIA, THE BIGGEST CITY IN THE STATE THE CRITICAL SWING SUBURBS AROUND HERE ARE IMPORTANT TO MAYBE MAYBE MORE IMPORTANT THAN WESTERN P.A. BUT LOOK, THERE'S NO QUESTION, THIS IS THE BIGGEST BATTLEGROUND STATE ON THE MAP. OUR LATEST POLLING WITH FIVETHIRTYEIGHT, THEIR BATTLEGROUND STATE POLLING HAS LESS THAN A POINT SEPARATING. THE TWO CANDIDATES, THAT'S BASICALLY A TOSS UP. AND IT'S JUST IT'S VERY TO PLAY WITH THE ELECTORAL MAP AND, YOU KNOW, CAN I DO THAT QUITE A BIT AND COME TO PENNSYLVANIA AS THE DECIDING STATE? YOU TELL ME WHO WINS PENNSYLVANIA. I'VE GOT A PRETTY GOOD CHANCE OF TELLING YOU WHO'S GOING TO BE THE NEXT PRESIDENT. >> OH, THIS IS FASCINATING. AGAIN, RICK KLEIN, ALL OF OUR GRATITUDE HERE YOU FOR SPENDING SOME TIME WITH US AND WE'LL BE SEEING YOU THERE TOMORROW IN PHILLY. THANKS, RICK. >> THANKS, JOHN. ALL RIGHT. I WANT TO BRING OUR BIG STORY NOW TO OUR PANEL. US TODAY IS OUR ABC NEWS CONTRIBUTOR AND SERIOUS XM RADIO HOST, MIKE MUSE, ABC NEWS POLITICAL CONTRIBUTOR AND SENIOR EDITOR FOR THE DISPATCH, SARAH ISGUR, DEMOCRATIC AND PRESIDENT OF NEXT GEN AMERICA CRISTINA TZINTZUN RAMIREZ AND FORMER ADVISER FOR TIM SCOTT'S CAMPAIGN. MATT GORMAN, A PLEASURE TO HAVE ALL HERE WITH US. SO, MIKE MUSE, FIRST OF ALL, THE LAST WOMAN THAT DONALD TRUMP DEFEATED WAS, HILLARY CLINTON. SHE, OF COURSE, WAS A WOMAN THAT HE RESPECTED. THIS IS SOMETHING THAT OUR VERY OWN RACHEL SCOTT HAS BEEN REPORTING ON. HE INVITED HIM HER TO ONE OF HIS WEDDINGS. RIGHT. DO YOU ANTICIPATE THAT DONALD WILL BE ABLE TO KEEP HIS COOL WHEN HE IS ACROSS THE PODIUM FROM KAMALA HARRIS, WHICH IS A WOMAN TO ACCORDING TO RACHEL SCOTT REPORTING, HE DOESN'T NECESSARILY HAVE THAT SAME LEVEL OF RESPECT FOR. >> I DON'T THINK SO. I MEAN, YOU HAVE ABSOLUTELY NAIL THAT QUESTION BECAUSE HE HAD A RELATIONSHIP WITH SECRETARY CLINTON PREVIOUSLY. THERE WAS A DIFFERENT TYPE OF RESPECT LEVEL. VICE PRESIDENT KAMALA HARRIS IS A DIFFERENT TYPE FOR HIM BECAUSE OF THE FACT THAT HE REPRESENTS EVERYTHING THAT HE FELT IS BEING WRONG HIM IN THE CRIMINAL JUSTICE SYSTEM AND THAT HE IS BEING PERSECUTED POLITICALLY OR SHE IS A FORMER PROSECUTOR AND I THINK WHEN HE SEES HER, HE ACTUALLY SEES THE ISSUES AND CHALLENGES THAT IS FACING HIM AND IN THE COURT SYSTEM THAT, HE FEELS VERY POLITICALLY PERSECUTED. >> AND I THINK THAT IS GOING TO TRIGGER SUBCONSCIOUSLY A DIFFERENT TYPE OF ANGER IN HIM TO WHICH, IF SHE BRINGS UP ANY OF HIS CASES. IF SHE BRINGS UP HOW SHE PROSECUTES, AS SHE ALWAYS SAYS ON THE STUMP, PEOPLE LIKE SHE KNOWS PEOPLE LIKE HIM, I THINK THAT WOULD RATTLE HIM. JUST A BIT AND COULD POSSIBLY THROW HIM OFF HIS GAME. >> ALL RIGHT. COMPOSURE IS EVERYTHING HERE REALLY FOR BOTH CANDIDATES? SARAH ISGUR SOMETHING THAT JUST CAME INTO MY MIND HERE. IT REMINDED ME OF SOMETHING THAT ONE OF OUR INVESTIGATIVE REPORTERS, OLIVIA RUBIN, TOLD ME SHE WAS SPEAKING WITH BYRON DONALD THROUGHOUT THE DEMOCRATIC NATIONAL CONVENTION, AND HE NOTED THAT, LOOK, VIBES AND ENTHUSIASM ISN'T GOING TO PUT FOOD ON THE TABLE WHEN WE'RE AT THIS DEBATE NOW IT TIME TO MOVE ON FROM VIBES AND ENTHUSIASM AND REALLY GET INTO THE NITTY OF POLICY. >> AND IF THEY DO, CAN THAT MOVE THE NEEDLE FOR EITHER CANDIDATE? >> THIS HAS BEEN THE PROBLEM FOR THE HARRIS CAMPAIGN. OBVIOUSLY, ENTHUSIASM HAS SHIFTED DRAMATICALLY SINCE JOE BIDEN DROPPED OUT, BUT ENTHUSIASTIC DON'T GET AN EXTRA VOTE. SO IT'S ALL ABOUT GETTING THOSE VOTERS, MAKING SURE VOTE. AND ALSO THE CONCERN FROM THE HARRIS CAMPAIGN THAT SHE'S ALREADY HIT HER HIGH MARK AND THAT AS VOTERS GET TO KNOW HER, SHE MAY ACTUALLY DROP A LITTLE BIT. >> BUT IT'S WORTH REMEMBERING, YOU KNOW, THE DAY OF DEBATE BETWEEN DONALD TRUMP AND JOE BIDEN, THEY WERE 1.5 POINTS APART IN NATIONAL POLLING AVERAGES AT THE BIGGEST GAP THAT THEY HAD. >> SO IN THE MOST CATASTROPHIC DEBATE IN AMERICAN HISTORY, BASICALLY THAT WENT FROM 1.5% TO 3.4%, LESS THAN TWO POINT CHANGE FOR A REALLY IMPORTANT DEBATE. SO CHANCES ARE THIS DEBATE MAY LOCK IN SOME NARRATIVES FOR EITHER, BUT IT'S NOT GOING TO HAVE A HUGE POLLING DIFFERENCE . >> NOW, THAT IS REALLY INTERESTING ANALYSIS, CRISTINA, AS YOU'RE SPEAKING. >> OH, OF COURSE, WITH YOUNG VOTERS, AS I KNOW YOU ALWAYS DO IN THEIR MIND, WHAT DOES KAMALA HARRIS NEED TO DO IN THIS DEBATE FOR HER CAMPAIGN ? >> CONSIDER THIS ONE A WIN. WHAT THIS DEBATE IS GOING TO BE PROBABLY THE MOST WATCHED DEBATE IN AMERICAN HISTORY AND IS AN EXCELLENT DEBATER. WE KNOW THAT YOUNG PEOPLE ARE GOING TO BE CRITICAL FOR HER TO WIN THIS ELECTION. WE'VE ALREADY SEEN HUGE GAINS OVER BIDEN'S NUMBERS WITH YOUNG PEOPLE AND EXCITEMENT OF THE BASE. AND THERE ARE STILL YOUNG PEOPLE THAT ARE FIGURING OUT WHO THEY'RE GOING TO VOTE FOR, A THIRD OF THE OVERALL ELECTORATE SAID IN THIS RECENT THAT THEY DIDN'T QUITE KNOW ENOUGH YET ABOUT HARRIS, BUT NINE OUT OF TEN SAID THEY ALREADY FELT LIKE THEY KNEW ENOUGH ABOUT DONALD TRUMP AND WHERE HE. SO IN MY MIND, SHE HAS EVERYTHING TO GAIN OUT OF THIS AND DONALD TRUMP HAS EVERYTHING TO LOSE. YOU EARLIER IT NOW THAT HE HAS HIS GOAL IS TO REMAIN UNHINGED TO. MAKE SURE HE DOESN'T BECOME UNHINGED. I MEAN, THAT'S THE BASELINE FOR DONALD TRUMP OUT OF THIS DEBATE. SHE IS A STRONG DEBATER. SHE'S GOING TO MAKE THE CASE. I THINK WE'LL SEE A FOR HER AFTER THIS DEBATE. >> AND SO, MATT, AND TO CHRISTINA'S POINT THERE, I THINK AS SOME ANALYSIS, SOME ANALYSIS IS BEING DONE ON THIS, YOU THINK ABOUT THE DONALD TRUMP THAT WE SAW IN THE MOST RECENT DEBATE, BUT THEN YOU THINK ABOUT THE DONALD TRUMP OF 2016, THE DONALD TRUMP OF 2020. HOW DO YOU ANTICIPATE HIM TAKING STAGE TONIGHT AND HOW WILL THESE PEOPLE HELPING HIM? MATT GAETZ TULSI GABBARD LEAN ON THAT I THINK WOULD BE A MISTAKE FOR DEMOCRATS TO EXPECT MAYBE, YOU KNOW, WANTING THAT 2020 TRUMP TO EMERGE WHEN YOU'RE RIGHT, 2020 FOR A VERY DIFFERENT TRUMP, SOMEONE WHO HAD PREPPED, EVEN THOUGH HE MIGHT NOT HAVE WANTED TO ADMIT IT, HE WAS FAR MORE PREPARED WALKING OF THAT STAGE. AND EVEN IN HIS ANSWERS AND HIS MANNERISMS, HE WOULD LET JOE BIDEN ON TANGENTS. HE WOULDN'T TRY TO INTERJECT AS MUCH AS HE DID, SAY IN 2020. I THINK IT'S A MISTAKE. AND DEMOCRATS ARE PREPARING FOR A HERE LOOK TO THE ONE IN JUNE, MORE SO AND BE READY FOR RATHER THAN TRYING AND YOU KNOW IT MIGHT FEEL GOOD TO WANT EXPECT THAT TRUMP IN 2020 BUT LIKELIHOOD YOU'RE NOT GOING TO GET RIGHT HE'S GOING UP AGAINST SOMETHING SOMEBODY VERY VERY DIFFERENT THIS TIME. IT'LL BE REALLY INTERESTING TO WATCH. MIKE, SARAH, CHRISTINA, MATT, OUR THANKS TO ALL OF.

THIS IS MULTINATIONAL GROUP THAT'S COMMUNICATING ONLINE. BUT IT REALLY IS. >> IT WAS ALMOST IN THE SHADOWS THIS ENTIRE TIME WHEN WE'VE SEEN THIS BEFORE. OBVIOUSLY, THE FBI HAS WARNED ABOUT THESE SORT OF ONLINE TERRORIST EXTREMISTS GROUPS. >> BUT, YOU KNOW, THEY'VE ALSO BEEN WARNING US ABOUT FOREIGN INFLUENCE REGIMES TRYING TO INFLUENCE OUR ELECTION COMING OUT. THIS WAS AN ATTEMPT TO INFLUENCE THE ELECTION IN A WAY USING FOREIGN ACTORS AS WELL. WE SAW ARRESTS MADE. THE DEPUTY CHIEF OF STAFF TO THE GOVERNOR OF NEW YORK WITH CHINESE INFLUENCE. >> OF COURSE, RUSSIANS TRYING TO INFLUENCE OUR CAMPAIGN ONCE AGAIN. ARRESTS IN THAT CASE AS WELL, TRYING TO INFLUENCE CONSERVATIVE INFLUENCERS. SO I GUESS I WOULD JUST TELL PEOPLE WHEN YOU'RE SEEING THINGS ONLINE, THINK CAREFULLY WHO'S TRYING TO GET YOU ANGRY OUTRAGED, NOT JUST WHETHER IT'S TRUE, BUT WHY. ABSOLUTELY. ARE THEY STIRRING THAT POT IN THAT MANNER? AND, MATT, WHEN WE THINK THESE INTERNATIONAL TERROR PLOTS, WE DON'T OFTEN THINK ABOUT WHITE NATIONALISM. I THINK THERE'S A LOT OF CONCERN ABOUT THIS THROUGHOUT OUR COUNTRY. AND AGAIN, NOTING HERE THAT THIS WAS REALLY FUNCTIONING ONLINE AND IS AS ALEX MALLIN PUT IT FOR US IN THE SHADOWS. >> YEAH, YOU'RE RIGHT. I MEAN, LOOK, THIS IS IT'S CERTAINLY A LOT EASIER ONLINE TO FIND PEOPLE WHO ARE CERTAINLY INTERESTED IN THIS SORT OF DEMENTED THING. I MEAN YOU LOOK BACK IT, YOU KNOW, CERTAINLY WHITE SUPREMACISM AND TERRORISM ARE NOTHING. GOING BACK TO ERIC RUDOLPH AND TIMOTHY MCVEIGH, OKLAHOMA, SOME 30 YEARS AGO. BUT WHEN YOU HYPER CHARGE IT IN THE ONLINE, YOU CAN YOU'RE ABLE TO HAVE A NETWORK THAT EXTENDS FROM UNITED STATES TO, SLOVAKIA, TO ALL THE WAY AROUND THE WORLD IN A WAY THAT WAS NEVER EVEN CONCEIVED OF BEFORE. >> AND CHRISTINA, ONE OF THE THINGS THAT REALLY STOOD OUT TO ME HERE IS REALLY SCARY. AND THIS IS THAT THIS GROUP WAS TAKING IN THESE MANIFESTOS FROM, YOU KNOW, THESE SHOOTERS AND OTHER THROUGHOUT THIS COUNTRY AND SORT OF BUILDING UPON THOSE AND LEARNING FROM THEM. >> YEAH. I MEAN, THERE IS A DOMESTIC TERRORIST MOVEMENT IN THIS COUNTRY. YOU CAN ASK THE FAMILY MEMBERS OF THE 23 PEOPLE, LATINOS DIED IN EL PASO, THE TEN THAT WERE KILLED IN BUFFALO AT A GROCERY STORE THAT WERE MOSTLY AFRICAN AMERICAN. THE 11 PEOPLE KILLED IN PITTSBURGH AT A SYNAGOGUE IN THE 46 PEOPLE THAT WERE GUNNED DOWN AT THE PULSE NIGHTCLUB, MOSTLY FROM THE LGBTQ COMMUNITY. WE KNOW THAT THEY ARE MOSTLY INSPIRED BY WHITE SUPREMACIST RHETORIC THAT IS GROWING. BUT SOME OF THEM EVEN SAID THEY WERE INSPIRED BY THE WORDS OF POLITICIANS LIKE. DONALD TRUMP. I THINK THIS IS A MOMENT I'M GLAD TO SEE THAT THE THIS PLAN WAS FOILED BEFORE THEY COULD ACTUALLY TAKE ACTION. BUT WE NEED A LOT MORE RESOURCES TO INVESTIGATE THESE KINDS OF GROUPS AND AS MUCH AS WE CAN AHEAD OF TIME. AND WE ALSO NEED REAL LEADERS THAT UNDERSTAND WE ARE ALL AMERICANS AND THAT OUR DIVERSITY IS OUR STRENGTH, NOT SOMETHING TO FOMENT HATRED AND DIVISION ACROSS THE COUNTRY. CERTAINLY NOT. AND MIKE, I'M CURIOUS AS TO YOUR EXPERTISE HERE
