BATHED IN DUST FROM THE DEADLY ATTACK ON ONE OF THE MOST DENSELY POPULATED PARTS OF GAZA. A HUGE CRATER SPEAKS TO THE POWER OF THE STRIKE. >> AND A HOSPITAL NEARBY INUNDATED WITH PATIENTS. DOCTORS ALREADY OVERWHELMED, NOW TENDING TO YET MORE CHILDREN WOUNDED IN A WAR THEY CAN’T ESCAPE. ISRAEL’S DEFENSE FORCES SAY

THEY WERE TARGETING AND SUCCESSFULLY KILLING A TOP HAMAS COMMANDER WHO PLAYED A MAJOR ROLE IN PLANNING THE OCTOBER 7TH ATTACK THAT KILLED 1400 PEOPLE IN ISRAEL. THE IDF SAYS THAT HAMAS HIDES BEHIND CIVILIANS, USING THEM AS HUMAN SHIELDS. >> I PRESSED AN IDF SPOKESMAN ON WHY ISRAEL WOULD TARGET

A REFUGEE CAMP PACKED WITH CIVILIANS. >> WE UNDERSTAND THAT THERE WERE SECONDARY EXPLOSIONS AND THAT THE SUBTERRANEAN INFRASTRUCTURE ALSO EXPLODED OR IMPLODED AS A RESULT OF SOME KIND OF SECONDARY EXPLOSION, AND THAT THERE ARE QUITE A LOT OF CASUALTIES IN THE AREA. PRESUMABLY AMID THE CIVILIAN SURGE OF CIVILIAN CASUALTIES

AT THIS STAGE, I CAN CONFIRM THAT THEY. I CAN I ASSESS THAT IS THE CASE. >> THE DEATH TOLL IN GAZA NOW OVER EIGHT AND A HALF THOUSAND, ACCORDING TO THE PALESTINIAN HEALTH MINISTRY. >> ISRAELI FORCES MOVING DEEPER INTO GAZA, RELEASING FOOTAGE SHOS ON THE GROUND, AND ABC NEWS

ABANDONED AND MISTREATED BY HER OWN COUNTRY. BECAUSE OUR COUNTRY IS SUPPOSED TO BE THE ONE THAT BACKS US UP TO MAKE SURE THAT THEIR CITIZENS COME HOME SAFELY. WE HAVEN’T SLEPT FOR 24 DAYS. WELL, DIANE, YOU CAN HEAR THE SOUND OF ONGOING FIGHTING, THE BOMBARDMENT OF GAZA.

WE’RE HEARING THE SOUND OF GUN BATTLES RAGING ON THE GROUND AS ISRAEL SAYS IT’S FOR THE FIRST TIME IN ITS GROUND INCURSION INTO GAZA, THAT IT HAS LOST 11 OF ITS SOLDIERS. NO WORD YET ON HOW MANY HAVE BEEN WOUNDED. MEANWHILE, THE FALLOUT FROM THAT ATTACK ON THE JABALYA REFUGEE CAMP IS STILL

BEING FELT. MANY OF THE PEOPLE WOUNDED IN THAT ATTACK STILL DESPERATELY NEEDING TREATMENT IN HOSPITAL. INTERESTINGLY, THOUGH, FOR THE FIRST TIME SINCE THIS CONFLICT BEGAN ON OCTOBER THE SEVENTH WITH THAT TERRIBLE MASSACRE HERE IN ISRAEL, WE’RE NOW THAT BORDER CROSSING INTO EGYPT, OPENING, ALLOWING SOME PEOPLE TO LEAVE.

YOU CAN HEAR THE SOUND OF OUTGOING ARTILLERY AND TANK FIRE. THERE. NOW, THAT COULD BE IMPORTANT IF IT’S THEN FOLLOWED THROUGH OVER THE NEXT FEW DAYS. IN OTHER WORDS, IF THESE BORDER GATES CONTINUE TO ALLOW PEOPLE TO LEAVE. WE KNOW THERE ARE HUNDREDS OF AMERICAN PASSPORT HOLDERS, THOUSANDS OF FOREIGN PASSPORT

HOLDERS DESPERATE TO GET OUT. IT LOOKS LIKE NEGOTIATIONS ARE ONGOING TO ALLOW THEM TO ESCAPE. BUT OF COURSE, FOR THE VAST MAJORITY OF PEOPLE IN GAZA, THERE IS NO ESCAPE. THERE IS NO GET OUT OF JAIL CARD. DIANE ALL RIGHT. >> DOESN’T SEEM THAT WAY. CHIEF FOREIGN CORRESPONDENT IAN PANNELL

IN ISRAEL, THANK YOU. MEANWHILE, THE FBI WARNS THE WAR BETWEEN ISRAEL AND HAMAS IS RAISING THE THREAT OF AN ATTACK ON U.S. SOIL, QUOTE, TO A WHOLE OTHER LEVEL. THIS COMES AS AGENTS ANNOUNCE AN ARREST IN CONNECTION WITH VIOLENT THREATS AGAINST STUDENTS AT CORNELL. CHIEF JUSTICE CORRESPONDENT PIERRE THOMAS HAS

THE DETAILS. >> THE AUTHORITIES ANNOUNCING THE ARREST OF CORNELL STUDENT PATRICK DAI AFTER HE ALLEGEDLY POSTED MESSAGES ONLINE THIS WEEK CALLING FOR THE DEATHS OF HIS JEWISH CLASSMATES AT THE UNIVERSITY. THE COMPLAINT ALLEGES THAT DION THREATENED TO KILL STUDENTS AT A DINING HALL THAT CATERS TO JEWISH STUDENTS AND IS

LOCATED NEXT TO THE CORNELL JEWISH CENTER. THE UNIVERSITY SAYING IN A STATEMENT IT IS GRATEFUL TO THE FBI FOR THE SWIFT ARREST, BUT ADDING CAMPUS POLICE WILL MAINTAIN ITS HEIGHTENED SECURITY PRESENCE. THESE ARREST CAME ON THE DAY OF A STARK WARNING FROM THE FBI DIRECTOR FOR THE ONGOING WAR IN THE MIDDLE EAST.

>> HAS RAISED THE THREAT OF AN ATTACK AGAINST AMERICANS IN THE UNITED STATES TO A WHOLE NOTHER LEVEL. >> MUSLIM AND JEWISH COMMUNITIES UNDER UNPRECEDENTED THREATS. DOJ PARTICULARLY CONCERNED SINCE A SIX YEAR OLD BOY WAS FATALLY STABBED 26 TIMES, ALLEGEDLY BY HIS FAMILY’S LANDLORD. AUTHORITIES SAY IT’S PERHAPS THE MOST CHALLENGING THREAT

ENVIRONMENT IN RECENT MEMORY. WRAY POINTING TO A RECENT ARREST IN HOUSTON AS EVIDENCE THE FBI BELIEVES SO HEY, BOBBY GHOSH WAS IN CONTACT WITH RADICALS ONLINE AND TRAINED WITH WEAPONS, INCLUDING ASSAULT STYLE RIFLES, TO POSSIBLY COMMIT AN ATTACK. THE FBI SAYS HE WAS STUDYING HOW TO BUILD BOMBS AND POSTING

ONLINE ABOUT KILLING JEWISH PEOPLE. AND FBI ACCUSING THIS MAN OF THREATENING TO KIDNAP OR KILL NEVADA SENATOR JACQUI ROSEN, WHO IS JEWISH. POLICE CLAIM JONATHAN ANTHONY MILLER LEFT A SERIES OF VIOLENT ANTI-SEMITIC VOICEMAILS AT ROSEN’S OFFICE, INCLUDING ONE SAYING WE’RE GOING TO EXTERMINATE YOU. >> I’M FEELING THE SAME AS JEWS

ARE FEELING ALL AROUND THE WORLD. UNDER ATTACK AND UNDER THREAT. THE FBI RECENTLY TOOK THE UNUSUAL STEP OF RELEASING PUBLIC SERVICE ANNOUNCEMENTS, CALLING FOR CITIZENS TO BE ON THE LOOKOUT FOR SUSPICIOUS ACTIVITY. A SENIOR OFFICIAL TELLING ME LAST NIGHT THE DIRECTOR DOES NOT WANT PEOPLE TO QUOTE,

PANIC, BUT HE DOES WANT THEM TO BE VIGILANT. ANOTHER SIGN OF THIS VERY INTENSE MOMENT, DIANE. ALL RIGHT. >> CHIEF JUSTICE CORRESPONDENT PIERRE THOMAS, THANK YOU. AND A NEW FUNDING FIGHT IS BREWING IN WASHINGTON. THE BIDEN ADMINISTRATION IS ASKING CONGRESS FOR BILLIONS OF DOLLARS FOR ISRAEL, HUMANITARIAN AID FOR PALESTINIANS AND UKRAINE.

AND NOW THE NEW SPEAKER OF THE HOUSE, MIKE JOHNSON, IS DEMANDING THE MONEY BE TAKEN FROM THE IRS BUDGET. >> YOU PRODUCE TO THE AMERICAN PEOPLE AND THEY WEIGH THE TWO NEEDS. I THINK THEY’RE GOING TO SAY STANDING WITH ISRAEL AND PROTECTING THE INNOCENT OVER THERE IS IN OUR NATIONAL

INTEREST AND IS A MORE IMMEDIATE NEED THAN IRS AGENTS . >> CRITICS SAY CUTTING THE IRS BUDGET COULD AFFECT SOME TAXPAYER SERVICES AND HURT ENFORCEMENT ACTIONS AGAINST TAX CHEATERS. SENIOR CONGRESSIONAL CORRESPONDENT RACHEL SCOTT HAS THE LATEST. >> HI, RACHEL. HEY, DIANE. WELL, THE BIDEN ADMINISTRATION HAS BEEN MAKING THE ROUNDS HERE

ON CAPITOL HILL, PLEADING WITH CONGRESS FOR ADDITIONAL FUNDING FOR BOTH ISRAEL AND UKRAINE, INSISTING THAT THESE TWO WARS ARE INTERCONNECTED. BUT REPUBLICANS OVER IN THE HOUSE REMAIN UNCONVINCED. THE PRESIDENT IS ASKING CONGRESS FOR $14 BILLION IN AID TO ISRAEL, 61 BILLION IN AID TO UKRAINE. THERE IS BIPARTISAN SUPPORT FOR

THAT OVER IN THE SENATE. BUT IN THE HOUSE, THE NEW SPEAKER IS PLANNING TO MOVE FORWARD WITH HIS OWN PROPOSAL, EXPECTED TO PUT A BILL ON THE FLOOR TOMORROW WOULD ONLY INCLUDE FUNDING FOR ISRAEL, AND IT ALSO INCLUDES A KEY DEMAND FROM JOHNSON THAT ANY OF THE MONEY SPENT

ON ISRAEL WOULD THEN HAVE TO BE CUT FROM THE BUDGET OF THE IRS. JOHNSON LIKE A GROWING NUMBER OF REPUBLICANS OVER IN THE HOUSE, ARE SKEPTICAL. THEY HAVE DEEP RESERVATIONS ABOUT MORE FUNDING FOR UKRAINE, SAYING INCLUDING IT IN THEIR BILL IS A NONSTARTER. BUT THIS HAS NOW SET THE STAGE

FOR A MASSIVE FIGHT. THIS MORNING, THE WHITE HOUSE SAYS THE PRESIDENT WOULD VETO THAT REPUBLICAN PROPOSAL FROM THE HOUSE. JUST SAYING FLAT OUT THAT IT’S BAD FOR NATIONAL SECURITY, THE MIDDLE EAST AND, ISRAEL DIANE. SENIOR CONGRESSIONAL CORRESPONDENT RACHEL SCOTT, THANK YOU. MEANWHILE, THE FEDERAL RESERVE IS SET TO ANNOUNCE WHETHER IT

WILL RAISE INTEREST AGAIN TODAY. THE DECISION IS SLATED TO COME DOWN AT 2 P.M. ABC NEWS ELIZABETH SCHULZE HAS A LOOK AT WHAT TO EXPECT. HI. >> HEY, DIANE. THIS IS A CRITICAL DECISION FROM THE FEDERAL RESERVE AS IT TRIES TO DECIPHER THE PATH FORWARD FOR THE ECONOMY.

THE FED IS EXPECTED TO KEEP INTEREST RATES ON HOLD AT THE END OF ITS MEETING HERE LATER TODAY. IT HAS ALREADY HIKED RATES 11 TIMES IN THE PAST YEAR AND A HALF, MAKING IT A LOT MORE EXPENSIVE TO BORROW MONEY. DURING THAT TIME, MORTGAGE RATES HAVE MORE THAN DOUBLED

TO, A 23 YEAR HIGH OF AROUND 8%, AND THE AVERAGE CREDIT INTEREST RATE IS NOW AT A RECORD HIGH. NEARLY 21%. THE FED’S GOAL IS TO SLOW DOWN SPENDING IN THE ECONOMY, TO TAME INFLATION, AND THERE ARE SIGNS THAT IT’S WORKING AS OVERALL PRICES COOL. BUT THE FED DOES NOT WANT

TO DECLARE VICTORY QUITE YET. SO INVESTORS WILL BE PARSING THE WORDS OF FED CHAIR JEROME POWELL TO SEE IF HE EXPECTS ANOTHER RATE HIKE AS SOON AS NEXT MONTH. NOW THE PERK OF THESE HIGHER INTEREST RATES IS THAT IT CAN PAY TO PUT MORE MONEY INTO YOUR SAVINGS.

SOME HIGH YIELD SAVINGS ACCOUNTS NOW OFFER RETURNS OF ABOUT 5%. DIANE WRIGHT, ABC NEWS ELIZABETH SCHULZE. >> THANK YOU. AND DONALD TRUMP JR IS SET TO TAKE THE WITNESS STAND TODAY IN. >> THE TRUMP ORGANIZATION CIVIL FRAUD TRIAL. TRUMP JR IS THE FIRST OF HIS SIBLINGS TO TESTIFY IN THE CASE

THAT COULD TEAR THE FAMILY REAL ESTATE BUSINESS APART. SENIOR INVESTIGATIVE REPORTER AARON KATERSKY HAS THE LATEST. >> HI, ERIN. DIANE, GOOD MORNING. DONALD TRUMP JR. IS GOING TO BE THE FIRST OF HIS SIBLINGS TO TESTIFY IN A CIVIL TRIAL HERE THAT. COULD RUIN THE FAMILY REAL ESTATE BUSINESS. A JUDGE HAS ALREADY FOUND

FORMER PRESIDENT TRUMP AND HIS ADULT SONS COMMITTED FRAUD BY MAKING HIM SEEM FAR WEALTHIER THAN HE ACTUALLY WAS SO THEY COULD GET BETTER TERMS ON LOANS AND INSURANCE. THE TRIAL IS GOING TO DETERMINE WHAT PENALTY, IF ANY, THE TRUMPS NEED TO PAY. THE LAWSUIT BY NEW YORK GENERAL LETITIA JAMES SAID THIS PUBLIC

DESIRE TO INFLATE HIS NET WORTH WAS WELL KNOWN AMONGST HIS CHILDREN. SO DON JR, ERIC AND IVANKA TRUMP HAVE BEEN CALLED TO TESTIFY. THE LAWSUIT SAYING THOSE THREE CHILDREN WERE INTIMATELY INVOLVED IN THE OPERATION OF THE TRUMP ORGANIZATION. BUSINESS ATTORNEYS COULD QUESTION DONALD TRUMP JR. ABOUT FINANCIAL DOCUMENTS

THAT HE SIGNED THAT SAID HIS FATHER’S FIFTH AVENUE PENTHOUSE IN TRUMP TOWER WAS 30,000 SQUARE FEET WORTH $327 MILLION WHEN IN FACT IT’S A THIRD THE SIZE. HE COULD ALSO FACE QUESTIONS ABOUT TRUMP PARK AVENUE APARTMENTS VALUED AS IF THEIR RENTS WERE UNRESTRICTED, IGNORING LOW INCOME TENANTS WHOSE RENTS ARE FIXED.

DIANE DON JR HAS CALLED THIS TRIAL A SHAM BEING CONDUCTED IN A KANGAROO COURT. ONCE HIS TESTIMONY IS OVER, HIS BROTHER ERIC IS GOING TO TAKE HIS PLACE ON THE WITNESS STAND. THEIR SISTER, IVANKA TRUMP, IS NOW SCHEDULED TO TESTIFY AT THE TRIAL HERE NEXT WEEK. >> DIANE? ALL RIGHT.

SENIOR INVESTIGATIVE REPORTER AARON KATERSKY YOU. NEARLY 90 MILLION AMERICANS, MEANWHILE, FROM NEW YORK TO TEXAS ARE UNDER FREEZE ALERTS. SOME PARTS OF THE COUNTRY ARE EVEN GETTING THEIR FIRST SNOW OF THE SEASON. METEOROLOGIST GREG DUTCHER, OUR STATION WLS HAS MORE FROM CHICAGO. HI, GREG. DION, CHICAGO IN THE MIDWEST

CERTAINLY ISN’T NEW THIS, BUT IT’S A REMINDER THAT FALL IS OVER AND WINTER HAS ARRIVED ALBEIT A LITTLE BIT EARLY. NOW, THE MOST SNOW WE’VE EVER SEEN ON HALLOWEEN THAT JUST HAPPENED EVEN THOUGH RECORDS GO ALL THE WAY BACK TO 1871. THAT WAS IN 2019. WE SAW ABOUT THREE AND A HALF

INCHES OF SNOW, BUT WE GOT JUST UNDER AN INCH OF SNOW AND WE DON’T SEE THAT IN CHICAGO UNTIL DECEMBER. NOW, OUT THIS VIDEO, IT DID COME DOWN IN BURSTS OF WHITEOUT CONDITIONS, CAUSING MANY ACCIDENTS. AND JUST ACROSS THE LAKE, IT WAS EVEN WORSE OUT IN MUSKEGON, ALL POWER LINES DOWN.

THOUSANDS WERE WITHOUT POWER AND THEY SAW A HALLOWEEN RECORD, 8.8 INCHES OF SNOW BY, THE WAY JUST DOWNRIGHT COLD WINDCHILLS THIS MORNING. THEY WERE IN THE TEENS TO LOWER TWENTIES AND YESTERDAY’S HIGH TEMPERATURE OF 38 DEGREES ON HALLOWEEN. FIFTH COLDEST ON RECORD. AND AGAIN, THOSE RECORDS,

THEY GO ALL THE WAY BACK TO THE 1800S. >> ALL RIGHT. METEOROLOGIST GREG DUTRA, THANK YOU. AND NOW LET’S TURN TO ABC NEWS CHIEF METEOROLOGIST GINGER ZEE FOR A LOOK AT HOW LONG THESE CHILLY TEMPERATURES WILL STICK AROUND. GOOD MORNING, GINGER. DIANE LET’S GO AHEAD AND DIVE IN BECAUSE WE ARE NOT

ONLY TALKING ABOUT SOME REALLY COLD AIR FROM THE GREAT LAKES NORTHEAST, BUT LOOK HOW FAR SOUTH THOSE FREEZE ALERTS GO. TEXAS, LOUISIANA, MISSISSIPPI, PLACES THAT HAVE HAD ONE OF, IF NOT THE HOTTEST SUMMERS ON RECORD. NOW, TALKING ABOUT RECORD LOWS, THAT IS A PHRASE I HAVEN’T USED IN A LONG TIME.

WE HAVE THOSE FREEZE ALERTS UP TO COASTAL CONNECTICUT BECAUSE THE CORE OF THAT WINTER AIR IS GOING TO SETTLE IN TOMORROW MORNING FOR PLACES LIKE PHILADELPHIA. LOOK AT RICHMOND, SUBFREEZING, RALEIGH TO ASHEVILLE, NORTH CAROLINA, UP WITH SOME ELEVATION INTO THE 20S. SO WE’RE ALSO GOING TO ADD A LITTLE BIT MORE SNOW.

YOU KNOW, FOLKS ALREADY GOT SOME OF THAT LAKE ENHANCED SNOW, MORE THAN A HALF FOOT IN PLACES AND MAYBE WESTERN PENNSYLVANIA, NEW YORK, ADD AN INCH TO THREE INCH PLUS ON TOP OF AND I THINK IT’S A REALLY GOOD TIME OF YEAR TO REMIND EVERYONE WHEN WE HAVE THESE

OUTBREAKS OF COLD OR SNOW, THAT DOES NOT NEGATE THE WARMING OF OUR PLANET. RIGHT. WE’RE ALWAYS LOOKING AT EARTH’S OVERALL TEMPERATURE. AND THIS FROM BERKELEY EARTH. THEY JUST CAME OUT WITH A NEW STUDY THAT SAYS WE ARE CLOSER THAN WE THOUGHT TO GETTING TO THAT ALL IMPORTANT THRESHOLD OF 1.5 DEGREES.

AND IN THAT LAST GRAPH YOU SAW THE UNITED STATES DID NOT HAVE A WARMEST SEPTEMBER, BUT SO MUCH OF THE EARTH DID. AND THAT’S WHAT KEEPS US IN THAT UNPRECEDENTED TERRITORY WHEN IT COMES TO GLOBAL TEMPERATURES. AND SO WE WILL KEEP SEEING THAT, EVEN THOUGH WE WILL HAVE

WINTER LIKE CONDITIONS TIMES. >> DIANE, ABC NEWS CHIEF METEOROLOGIST GINGER ZEE, THANK YOU.

HUNDREDS OF FOREIGN NATIONALS, INCLUDING AT LEAST FIVE AMERICANS, HAVE STARTED

THE PROCESS TO CROSS INTO EGYPT. THIS AS ISRAELI FORCES SAY THEY’VE KILLED A TOP HAMAS COMMANDER WITH AN AIRSTRIKE IN GAZA’S LARGEST CAMP. CHIEF FOREIGN CORRESPONDENT IAN PANEL STARTS US OFF FROM STEWART, ISRAEL. >> HI. CROWDS OF FOREIGN NATIONALS, INCLUDING AT LEAST FIVE AMERICANS TRAPPED IN GAZA SINCE THE WAR BEGAN, HAVE

AT LEAST 52 PEOPLE KILLED, ACCORDING TO THE HAMAS RUN HEALTH. SURVIVORS DESPERATELY SCOURING THROUGH THE DEBRIS IN JABALYA, LOOKING FOR PEOPLE BURIED IN THE RUBBLE. CHILDREN AMONG THE VICTIMS BATHED IN DUST FROM THE DEADLY ATTACK ON ONE OF THE MOST DENSELY POPULATED PARTS OF GAZA. A HUGE CRATER SPEAKS TO THE

POWER OF THE STRIKE. AND A HOSPITAL NEARBY INUNDATED WITH PATIENTS. DOCTORS ALREADY OVERWHELMED, NOW TENDING TO YET MORE CHILDREN WOUNDED IN A WAR THEY CAN’T ESCAPE. ISRAEL’S DEFENSE FORCES SAY THEY WERE TARGETING AND SUCCESSFULLY KILLING A TOP HAMAS COMMANDER WHO PLAYED A MAJOR ROLE IN PLANNING THE OCTOBER 7TH ATTACK

THAT KILLED 1400 PEOPLE IN ISRAEL. THE IDF SAYS HAMAS HIDES BEHIND CIVILIANS, USING THEM AS HUMAN SHIELDS. I PRESSED AN IDF SPOKESMAN ON WHY ISRAEL WOULD TARGET A REFUGEE CAMP PACKED WITH CIVILIANS. >> WE UNDERSTAND THAT THERE WERE SECONDARY EXPLOSIONS AND THAT SUBTERRANEAN INFRASTRUCTURE ALSO EXPLODED OR

IMPLODED AS A RESULT OF SOME KIND OF SECONDARY EXPLOSION, AND THAT THERE ARE QUITE A LOT OF CASUALTIES IN THE AREA. PRESUMABLY MIDDLE CIVILIANS. SORRY TO INTERRUPT. CIVILIAN CASUALTIES, A AT THIS STAGE, I CAN’T CONFIRM THAT THEY ARE. I CAN. I ASSESS IS THE CASE. >> THE DEATH TOLL IN GAZA NOW

CITIZENS COME HOME SAFELY. WE HAVEN’T SLEPT FOR 24 DAYS. CHIEF FOREIGN CORRESPONDENT IAN, PANEL, THANK YOU. AND EXPERTS NOW WARN WARS OVERSEAS COULD LEAD TO A GLOBAL HEALTH CRISIS. THEY WHILE PEOPLE IN WAR TORN AREAS SUFFER PHYSICAL AND PSYCHOLOGICAL DISTRESS, OTHERS COULD ALSO SUFFER MENTAL AND PHYSICAL HEALTH ISSUES DUE

TO FEAR AND STRESS. ABC NEWS MEDICAL CONTRIBUTOR AND PHYSICIAN AT STANFORD CHILDREN’S HEALTH DR. ALOK PATEL IS HERE WITH MORE ON THIS. >> DR. PATEL. HOW DOES THIS WORK? HOW CAN PEOPLE WITH NO DIRECT CONNECTION TO THESE WARS SUFFER MENTAL AND PHYSICAL EFFECTS FROM THEM? >> SIMPLY PUT, DIANE, WE

ARE WIRED AS HUMANS. THE EMPATHETIC CREATURES, WHEN WE SEE OR HEAR STORIES OF OTHERS WHO ARE SUFFERING. IT DOES AFFECT US. AND ANYONE WHO HAS WORKED WITH TRAUMA SURVIVORS CAN ATTEST TO THE FACT THAT WE CAN EXPERIENCE SOMETHING CALLED VICARIOUS TRAUMA. WE SEE THE IMAGES. WE HEAR ABOUT WHAT IS HAPPENING

TO PEOPLE WHO ARE DISPLACED OR INJURED, WHOSE FRIENDS OR FAMILY ARE AT RISK, AND THAT ACTUALLY CAUSE SYMPTOMS OF POST-TRAUMATIC STRESS. YOU CAN ADD DEPRESSION, ANXIETY AND A LACK OF SLEEP AS WE ARE TRYING TO FIGURE OUT WHAT POSSIBLY COULD BE A SOLUTION TO END ALL THE SUFFERING.

>> AND IT’S IMPORTANT TO NOTE AS YOU MENTIONED, THAT THIS GOES FAR BEYOND THE PHYSICAL EFFECTS OF WAR, WHETHER THAT’S CRASH BURNS OR INJURIES. BUT THERE ARE THESE INDIRECT EFFECTS. WELL, SUCH AS A LACK OF HEALTH CARE ACCESS, DISPLACEMENT FOR SO MANY MILLIONS OF PEOPLE, LACK OF FOOD, WATER,

SANITATION, EFFECTS ON MATERNAL HEALTH, CHILDREN’S HEALTH. AND THESE BROAD SCALE EFFECTS ON MENTAL HEALTH FOR PEOPLE. THIS AFFECTS HUNDREDS OF MILLIONS OF PEOPLE WORLDWIDE BECAUSE OF ALL THE CONFLICT OUT THERE. >> THIS IS A GLOBAL HEALTH CATASTROPHE. NOW, DR. PATEL, THESE EXPERTS SAY THAT I’M QUOTING HERE INDIRECT, HEALTH EFFECTS

SOMETIMES LINGER LONG AFTER THE WAR IS OVER. >> SO HOW LONG ARE WE TALKING AND HOW CAN YOU TELL IF THIS IS AFFECTING YOU IN A WAY THAT CALLS FOR PROFESSIONAL HELP? >> WHEN WE LOOK AT THE INDIRECT EFFECTS OF WAR, I MEAN, LOOK AT STUDIES AND YOU CAN LOOK

THROUGHOUT TIME OF THE EFFECTS OF WAR IN LATIN AMERICA, SOUTHEAST ASIA SYRIA, ETHIOPIA, YEMEN, UKRAINE. AND NOW WHAT WE’RE SEEING RIGHT NOW IN ISRAEL AND GAZA, IT’S SIMPLY ASTONISHING. LOOK AT WHAT CAN HAPPEN WHEN YOU TAKE DOWN THE HEALTHCARE INFRASTRUCTURE OF A WAR ZONE AND OF A SUDDEN PEOPLE DON’T

HAVE ACCESS TO PREVENTATIVE CARE OR THE ABILITY TO MANAGE CHRONIC HEALTH CONDITIONS. >> THIS CAN LAST AN ENTIRE LIFETIME. THEIR STUDIES LOOKING AT THE RISK CHILDREN ARE IN WHEN THEY’RE BORN INTO A PLACE OF CONFLICT, HOW THEY CAN AFFECT THEIR LONG TERM DEVELOPMENT AND TOXIC STRESS. IT IS AWFUL FOR OUR BRAINS.

IT CAN INCREASE OUR RISK OF. SO MANY DIFFERENT HEALTH CONDITIONS. AND PEOPLE OUT THERE WHO ARE WITNESSING THIS AND IT CAN FEEL THOSE SENSES OF GUILT, OF HELPLESSNESS, OF ANXIETY. THEY’RE LOSING SLEEP. IT’S SO IMPORTANT TO CHECK IN ON YOURSELF AND TO SEE HOW THIS IS AFFECTING YOUR DAY TO DAY FUNCTIONING.

AND IT’S OKAY TO TAKE A STEP BACK OR ASK FOR HELP AS YOU’RE TRYING TO PROCESS WHAT IS HAPPENING. SO, DR. PATEL, WHAT CAN PEOPLE DO TO TAKE CARE OF THEIR PHYSICAL AND MENTAL HEALTH RIGHT NOW? AND HOW DO WE DO THE SAME FOR OUR KIDS? >> IT’S REALLY IMPORTANT FOR

PEOPLE TO TAKE SOME TIME FOR YOURSELF OBSERVATION AND ASK YOURSELF HOW YOU ARE DOING, HOW IS YOUR MENTAL HEALTH? CHECK IN ON YOUR FRIENDS AND FAMILY. AND IT MAY SEEM COUNTERINTUITIVE FOR A POPULATION WHO WANTS TO PAY ATTENTION TO THE NEWS, BUT TAKING BREAKS AWAY FROM NEWS HEADLINES, AWAY FROM

SOCIAL MEDIA, ENCOURAGING THIS FOR YOUR KIDS TO NOT ONLY BE GOOD FOR OUR MENTAL HEALTH, BUT CAN ACTUALLY HELP OUR BRAINS PROCESS WHAT IS GOING ON, OUR EMOTIONAL REGULATION, OUR JUDGMENT. >> IT’S ALSO A REALLY GOOD IDEA TO ASK FOR HELP ENCOURAGE PEOPLE AROUND YOU TO DO THE SAME, WHETHER IT’S GOING

TO YOUR FRIENDS, COLLEAGUES OR THERAPY. AND I LAST, BUT DEFINITELY NOT LEAST IS THINK ABOUT TRYING TO CHANNEL YOUR ENERGY INTO SOMETHING ACTIONABLE. IS IT WORKING ON AN ADVOCACY PROJECT? IS IT DONATING? IS IT TALKING TO PEOPLE WHO MAY HAVE FRIENDS OR FAMILY WHO ARE AFFECTED? >> IS IT SOMETHING THAT YOU

FEEL LIKE YOU CAN DO THAT’S CONSTRUCTIVE? >> BECAUSE I THINK RIGHT NOW THE MAJOR MESSAGES AS WE ARE WAITING FOR THE WORLD TO FIND AN ANSWER, TO FIND A WAY TOWARDS PEACE, WE CAN ALL DO BETTER FOR OURSELVES, TO BE MORE EMPATHETIC AND COMPASSIONATE. >> I THINK THAT IS SOMETHING WE

CAN ALL TRY TO DO. DR. PATEL, THANK YOU. THANK YOU. AND A NEW REPORT RAISING CONCERNS ABOUT CANCER AND PEOPLE UNDER THE AGE OF 39. THE REPORT OUT OF FLORIDA FOUND THE NUMBER OF YOUNGER ADULTS BEING DIAGNOSED. CANCER INCREASED IN THE PAST DECADE. ECHOING NUMBERS, WE’RE SEEING NATIONWIDE. GEORGE STEPHANOPOULOS BREAKS

DOWN THOSE NUMBERS. >> A NEW MEDICAL REPORT OUT OF FLORIDA HIGHLIGHTS A 15% INCREASE IN THE RATE OF CANCER IN PEOPLE AGES 20 TO 39. THAT’S FROM 2010 TO 2020. WITH CANCER BEING THE MOST COMMON CANCER IN THAT AGE RANGE, AS WELL AS THYROID CANCER AND MELANOMA. THE FINDINGS, LARGELY

CONSISTENT WITH NATIONAL TRENDS THAT SHOW INCREASED DIAGNOSES IN PEOPLE UNDER 50, ESPECIALLY FOR BREAST CANCER AND AND HIGHER EARLY CANCER RATES IN WOMEN THAN IN MEN. THE SCREENING AGE FOR BOTH TYPES OF CANCER RECENTLY LOWERED FOR WOMEN. INDIANA RESIDENT LAUREN DEGAS, WHO WAS DIAGNOSED WITH CANCER AT AGE 31.

>> IT CAN COME OUT OF THE BLUE. I WAS COMPLETELY SHOCKED, MAINLY BECAUSE THERE WAS A NEW TYPE OF STRONG CANCER HISTORY IN MY FAMILY THAT I KNEW OF AND MISSED A LOT OF THE EARLY WARNING SIGNS. IT WASN’T ON MY RADAR AT ALL. AND FOR MARQUITA MONROE,

WHO GOT HER CANCER DIAGNOSIS AT 33 AND IS NOW CANCER FREE, SHE’S HOPING TO GET THE MESSAGE OUT THAT IT CAN HAPPEN TO ANYONE. >> IT IS VERY IMPORTANT TO BE AWARE OF YOUR BODY, MAKING SURE THAT YOU TAKING CARE OF YOURSELF, EATING HEALTHY, EXERCISING AND DOING SELF-EXAMS, TO MAKE SURE

THAT IF ANYTHING CHANGES OR IF THERE’S SOMETHING GOING ON WITH YOUR BODY, YOU CAN FIND IT AND YOU CAN BE AN ADVOCATE FOR YOURSELF. >> GEORGE STEPHANOPOULOS, THANK YOU. AND OUR CHIEF MEDICAL CORRESPONDENT, DR. JEN ASHTON, SAYS THE GLOBAL TREND OF HIGHER DIAGNOSIS IS STILL UNCLEAR. BUT THINGS LIKE ENVIRONMENTAL

EXPOSURE AND BEHAVIORS LIKE POOR DIET, EXCESSIVE DRINKING AND LACK OF EXERCISE ALL PLAY A ROLE. >> COMING UP, REAL ESTATE RIP OFF. A MAJOR RULING FINDS REALTORS LIABLE FOR COLLUDING TO KEEP COMMISSIONS HIGH. WHAT IT MEANS IF YOU’RE LOOKING TO BUY OR SELL A HOME. ALSO AHEAD, STUDENT LOAN

I IN CALLING OUT A BIG COMPANY AND SCARY. WHAT MAKES SHEEHAN SO DIFFERENT IS? >> THE UNBOXING SHE AND THIS IS “IMPACT X NIGHTLINE” NOW STREAMING ON HULU. >> WELCOME BACK. THE FEDERAL GOVERNMENT SAYS IT’S WORKING FIX A NUMBER OF PROBLEMS PLAGUING THE RESTART OF STUDENT LOAN REPAYMENTS.

THE DEPARTMENT OF EDUCATION SAYS ROUGHLY 830,000 PEOPLE MISSED THEIR FIRST PAYMENTS AFTER LOAN SERVICE FAILED TO SEND OUT TIMELY NOTICES TO MORE THAN 2 MILLION BORROWERS. THE DEPARTMENT OF EDUCATION SPOKESPERSON ALSO TELLS ABC NEWS 21,000 PEOPLE RECEIVED INCORRECT BILLS AND 16,000 MORE RECEIVED BILLS DESPITE THE BIDEN ADMINISTRATION THEIR DEBT.

LET’S BRING IN SENIOR NATIONAL POLICY REPORTER AND FLAHERTY FOR MORE ON THIS. AND THIS SOUNDS LIKE A MESS. WHAT WENT WRONG HERE? YEAH, IT’S ABOUT THE MESS THAT YOU WOULD EXPECT AFTER THERE’S BEEN A THREE YEAR HIATUS WHERE PEOPLE DIDN’T HAVE TO MAKE PAYMENTS ON STUDENT LOANS.

>> AND I THINK THERE ARE REALLY TWO BIG THINGS THAT ARE HAPPENING HERE. ONE IS THAT ELIGIBILITY. >> ELIGIBILITY, I CAN’T SAY THAT WORD. PEOPLE ARE QUALIFYING FOR DIFFERENT THINGS. SO THERE’S NOW A SAVE A PROGRAM THAT BIDEN HAS IN EFFECT THAT BASICALLY SET YOUR MONTHLY PAYMENT TO YOUR INCOME LEVEL.

SO PEOPLE ARE NOW HAVING TO PAY DIFFERENT THINGS EACH MONTH THAN THEY DID BEFORE. SO THE SERVICERS ARE SCRAMBLING TO FIGURE THAT OUT. I THINK THE OTHER THING THAT’S HAPPENED IS THAT THESE LOAN SERVICERS HAVE CHANGED SO NAVIENT FOR EXAMPLE, WITH A VERY LARGE LOAN SERVICER THAT IS NO LONGER WORKING

ON FEDERAL STUDENT LOANS. SO PEOPLE NOW HAVE DIFFERENT COMPANIES THAT THEY’RE DEALING WITH. SO QUITE A BIT OF A MESS AFTER THREE YEARS. EVERYTHING CHANGED. >> SO WHAT DOES THIS MEAN FOR BORROWERS AND COULD THOSE WHO MISSED PAYMENTS FACE PENALTIES EVEN IF THEY DIDN’T GET THE NOTICE TIME?

>> SO I THINK THE REALLY BIG THING TO UNDERSTAND WITH THIS IS, THAT NOBODY IS GOING TO BE FACING PENALTIES FOR ABOUT A YEAR UNDER THE BIDEN ADMINISTRATION. THEY HAVE SAID THAT THEY’RE GOING TO GIVE IT A YEAR GRACE PERIOD. BUT SPECIFICALLY FOR THESE PEOPLE WHO HAD MAHELA,

THEY WERE WORKING WITH THAT LOAN SERVICER AND THEY DIDN’T GET THEIR BILLS ON TIME. THE ADMINISTRATION HAS ASKED MAHELA TO PUT THOSE ACCOUNTS IN WHAT THEY CALL ADMINISTRATIVE FORBEARANCE, ESSENTIALLY PUT THEM ON ICE SO THAT NOBODY IS PENALIZED IF THEY DIDN’T MAKE THAT PAYMENT IN TIME. YOU’RE SUPPOSED TO GET

ABOUT THREE WEEKS NOTICE. SOME PEOPLE ONLY GOT LESS THAN A WEEK. THEY SAY THAT’S NOT FAIR. THEY’RE TRYING TO SORT THROUGH THESE PROGRAM PROBLEMS RIGHT NOW. >> SO THE ADMINISTRATION NOW SAYS THEY’RE WORKING TO FIX THESE ISSUES. HOW SO? IN ADDITION TO ASKING FOR THAT ADMINISTRATIVE FORBEARANCE WITH MAHELA ACCOUNT OWNERS,

THE ADMINISTRATION IS ALSO DOING SOMETHING WE HAVEN’T SEEN BEFORE. THEY ARE GOING AFTER THESE LOAN SERVICERS THAT ARE MAKING MISTAKES AND SAYING, LOOK, WE’RE GOING TO WITHHOLD MONEY FROM YOUR CONTRACT UNTIL YOU CAN FIX PROBLEMS. SO IN THE CASE OF MAHELA AND WE HAVE ASKED THEM FOR COMMENT,

THEY DID NOT RESPOND TO A REQUEST FOR COMMENT FROM ABC. BUT THEY ARE GOING. THE ADMINISTRATION SAYS THEY’RE GOING TO WITHHOLD $7 MILLION IN PAYMENTS ON THEIR CONTRACT UNTIL THEY CAN SORT THIS OUT. >> SO HOW DO YOU FIND OUT IF YOUR WAS IMPACTED OR WHAT DO YOU DO IF YOU HAVE QUESTIONS?

YEAH, I THINK THE MOST IMPORTANT THING IS THAT YOU HAVE TO CREATE A PAPER TRAIL. YOU HAVE TO GO THROUGH THOSE PAPERS. NOTHING IS GOING AWAY. YOU HAVE TO SORT THROUGH THEM AND FIGURE OUT WHETHER OR NOT THESE BILLS ARE ACCURATE. SO LOOK AT THEM CAREFULLY. CONTACT YOUR LOAN SERVICER.

YOU CAN ALSO GO TO STUDENT AID DOT GOV. >> BUT YOU’VE GOT TO FIGURE THIS OUT. IT’S NOT GOING TO GO AWAY. ALL RIGHT. >> SENIOR NATIONAL POLICY REPORTER AND FLAHERTY, THANK YOU. AND A MAJOR RULING IN A MISSOURI REAL ESTATE CASE COULD SHAKE UP THE MARKET.

HOME BUYERS AND SELLERS. A KANSAS CITY JURY FOUND THE NATIONAL ASSOCIATION OF REALTORS AND OTHER ORGANIZATIONS CONSPIRED TO KEEP REALTORS COMMISSION FEES HIGH. THE PLAINTIFFS ARGUED THE ORGANIZATION’S FORCED HOME SELLERS TO PAY BOTH THE SELLER AND BUYER FEES. CALLING THAT PRACTICE WRONG AND ILLEGAL. THE JURY APPARENTLY AGREED, AWARDING HALF $1,000,000

TO MISSOURI HOME SELLERS, OR RATHER AWARDING HALF A MILLION HOME SELLERS, $1.8 BILLION IN DAMAGES. LET’S BRING IN ABC NEWS BUSINESS REPORTER ALEXIS CHRISTOFOROUS FOR MORE ON THAT. >> ALEXIS, SO HOW DID THESE ORGANIZATIONS FORCE TO PAY THESE FEES? >> WELL, FIRST, I JUST WANT TO TAKE A STEP BACK AND SAY

THIS IS A HUGE PRECEDENT SETTING RULING IF IT STICKS AND IT COULD HAVE LONG LASTING RAMIFICATIONS FOR THE REAL ESTATE INDUSTRY, IT COULD CHANGE THE WAY AMERICANS PAY THOSE BROKER FEES, GOING. SO AT THE HEART OF THIS CASE IS SOMETHING CALLED AN OFFER OF COMPENSATION, WHICH BASICALLY SAYS THE SELLER MUST

PAY THE AGENT FEE FOR THEMSELVES, BUT ALSO FOR THE BUYER. AND IN DOING SO, THEY’RE SAYING THAT THESE ORGANIZATIONS IN ESSENCE, INFLATE THE HOME OF THE PRICE BECAUSE THOSE COMMISSIONS ARE ESSENTIALLY BAKED INTO THE PRICE. SO PEOPLE ARE PAYING PRICES THAT ARE HIGHER. >> SO HOW COULD THIS CHANGE WAY

REAL ESTATE AGENTS DO BUSINESS? AND WHAT DOES THIS MEAN FOR, SOMEONE TRYING TO BUY OR SELL A HOME? IT’S STILL YET TO BE DETERMINED. AND THE FINAL JUDGMENT HAS COME DOWN FROM THIS JUDGE IN KANSAS CITY. BUT IT COULD MEAN THAT THIS OFFER OF COMPENSATION IS NOT

GOING TO BE A RULE NATIONWIDE. IT COULD MEAN THAT SELLERS WILL NO LONGER HAVE TO PAY THE BROKER ON THE BUYER SIDE. AND IT COULD REALLY CHANGE THE DYNAMIC. I MEAN, THERE HAVE BEEN REPORTS THAT THE INTERNET HAS CHANGED THE REAL ESTATE INDUSTRY SO MUCH. NOW REGULAR FOLKS CAN GO ON

AND DO RESEARCH IN THEIR AREA ABOUT HOW MUCH IS A HOME SELLING FOR WHERE ARE THE HOMES FOR SALE THAT THEY’RE QUESTIONING THE OVERALL VALUE OF REAL ESTATE AGENTS. THERE ARE SIMILAR CASES IN THE WORKS OUTSIDE MISSOURI. YOU’RE SAYING THIS COULD POTENTIALLY CATCH ON. SO WHAT’S THE LANDSCAPE THERE?

I THINK IT’S A IT’S A CHANGING LANDSCAPE. AND A LOT IS GOING TO REST ON WHETHER OR NOT THIS CASE REMAINS THE WAY IT IS. I MEAN, I KNOW THE NATIONAL ASSOCIATION OF REALTORS SAYS THEY’RE GOING TO APPEAL. TWO MAJOR REAL ESTATE FIRMS WERE PART OF THIS VERDICT. HOME AMERICA SERVICES SAYS

THEY’RE GOING TO APPEAL. KELLER WILLIAMS SAYS THEY ARE THINKING ABOUT APPEALING. THIS COULD TAKE YEARS TO GET THROUGH THE COURTS, BUT — BUT AT THE HEART OF IT IS THESE COMPENSATION RULES AND THE WAY BROKERS ARE PAID. >> I THINK WE’RE GOING TO SEE SOME MAJOR CHANGES MOVING FORWARD. ALL RIGHT. INTERESTING.

IT’S FUNNY, I HAVE THIS SINGSONG TONE NATURALLY, BUT AROUND THE WORLD, STUDIES SHOW THAT ALL PARENTS DO RAISE THEIR VOICE WHEN THEY TALK TO BABIES AND TODDLERS, AND THAT THAT IS HELPFUL FOR LANGUAGE DEVELOPMENT. >> THAT’S LIKE MIND BLOWING

BECAUSE IT SEEMS SO SIMPLE. WELL, YEAH, IT’S A LOT OF RESEARCH AND LIKE, DORKY RESEARCH. I DO. I READ RESEARCH PAPERS. WHAT’S EXCITING IS WE SEE SO MANY PARENTS ON SOCIAL MEDIA WORKING, ON THESE THINGS AWAY FROM THE SCREEN TREATMENT ISSUES AND USING THE TECHNIQUES AND THE SONGS AND THE GAMES AND.

YOU SHOULD BUY YOUR TURKEY. >> WELL, WE BEGIN WITH DONALD TRUMP JR. SET TO TAKE THE WITNESS STAND IN THE TRUMP ORGANIZATION CIVIL FRAUD TRIAL TODAY. TRUMP JR IS THE FIRST OF HIS SIBLINGS TO TESTIFY IN THE CASE THAT COULD TEAR THE FAMILY REAL ESTATE BUSINESS APART. BRING IN SENIOR INVESTIGATIVE

REPORTER AARON KATERSKY AND ABC NEWS LEGAL CONTRIBUTOR BRIAN BUCKMIRE WITH MORE ON THAT. ERIN TRUMP JUNIOR IS EXPECTED TO QUESTIONS ABOUT HIS ROLE IN MANAGING HIS FATHER’S REVOCABLE AND THAT WAS USED TO PREVENT POTENTIAL BUSINESS CONFLICTS WHILE. TRUMP WAS PRESIDENT. WHY IS THAT SO IMPORTANT TO THIS CASE?

>> OH, IT’S IMPORTANT BECAUSE IN THAT ROLE, DONALD TRUMP JR SIGNED OFF ON MANY OF THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS THAT THE TRUMP ORGANIZATION USED IN BUSINESS THAT THE JUDGE HAS ALREADY DECIDED WERE FRAUDULENT. SO HE SIGNED THE DOCUMENTS THAT MADE TRUMP’S NET WORTH SEEM FAR HIGHER THAN IT ACTUALLY WAS BY BY AS MUCH

THE ATTORNEY GENERAL’S OFFICE HERE SAYS IS $2.2 BILLION. NOW, THERE’S BEEN OTHER TESTIMONY, DIANE, THAT SAYS DONALD TRUMP JR WASN’T REALLY IN THE CRAFTING OF THOSE FINANCIAL DOCUMENTS, BUT HE SIGNED THEM. AND THAT’S WHAT THE ATTORNEY GENERAL’S OFFICE IS EXPECTED TO ASK HIM ABOUT HERE TODAY. >> BRIAN, WHAT DO PROSECUTORS

WANT TO HEAR FROM DONALD TRUMP JR. AND WHAT ARE YOU LISTENING FOR IN THIS TESTIMONY? >> I THINK THE PROSECUTION GOT A LOT FROM MICHAEL COHEN AND OTHER EXPERTS ABOUT THE FINANCES, WHAT WAS SIGNED OFF, WHAT THEY WANT FROM DONALD TRUMP JR. IS HOW MUCH DID YOU KNOW?

WHAT DID YOU DO AND HOW INVOLVED WERE YOU? WHAT I’M LISTENING FOR IS WHAT IS DONALD TRUMP JR STRATEGY TO BE? IS HE GOING TO PROTECT HIS FATHER? IS HE GOING TO THROW HIM UNDER THE BUS? HE’S GOING TO PROTECT HIMSELF? AND COULD HIS OWN STATEMENTS LEAD TO OTHER PROBLEMS FOR

HIMSELF, HIS FAMILY AND HIS FATHER? >> SO, ERIN, ERIC TRUMP IS EXPECTED TO THE STAND TOMORROW. IVANKA IS SET TO FACE QUESTIONS NEXT WEEK. WHAT IS THE PROSECUTION LOOKING TO HEAR FROM THEM? >> WELL, THE CHILDREN, ACCORDING TO THE ATTORNEY GENERAL’S OFFICE HERE, DIANE, WERE INTIMATELY INVOLVED IN THE TRUMP ORGANIZATION’S DAY

TO DAY BUSINESS, ESPECIALLY AFTER DONALD TRUMP BECAME PRESIDENT. AND IN A PRESS CONFERENCE FROM JANUARY 2017, HE SORT OF THEATRICALLY TURNED OVER CONTROL OF THE TRUMP ORGANIZATION TO HIS KIDS. AND SO THE ATTORNEY GENERAL’S OFFICE BELIEVES THEY ARE JUST AS CULPABLE. THE SONS ERIC AND DON JR ARE NAMED DEFENDANTS.

IVANKA TRUMP WAS REMOVED FROM THE CASE BY A BY AN APPELLATE COURT. BUT STILL THE ATTORNEY GENERAL’S OFFICE BELIEVES SHE WAS INVOLVED IN VALUING SOME OF THE KEY ASSETS THAT HELPED TRUMP’S NET WORTH GET SO INFLATED. >> NOW BRIAN TRUMP’S FORMER LAWYER AND FIXER, MICHAEL COHEN, TESTIFIED THAT HE UNDERSTOOD THAT TRUMP’S

CHILDREN WERE INVOLVED IN THE PROPERTY VALUATIONS, BUT THAT HE DIDN’T WITNESS THAT HIMSELF. COULD THE CHILDREN ACTUALLY BE HELD LIABLE IN THIS CASE? >> ABSOLUTELY. FOR THE PROSECUTOR, WHAT THEY’VE GOT TO DO IS CREATE CONNECTIVE TISSUE. WHY ISN’T MICHAEL COHEN UNDERSTOOD THAT THEY KNEW THE VALUATIONS ARE THE AG’S OFFICE

IS GOING TO BE ABLE TO PUT THEM IN THE ROOM WHERE THESE CONVERSATIONS WERE BEING WHERE DOCUMENTS WERE BEING SIGNED, WHERE THEY CANNOT WIGGLE THEIR WAY OUT OF. WELL, I DIDN’T KNOW THIS. I DIDN’T KNOW THAT. TAKE MICHAEL COLLINS TESTIMONY AND JUXTAPOSED AGAINST THE ADULT CHILDREN AND SEE WHERE THEY GO.

ARE THEY GOING TO ADMIT AND DENY OR SOMETHING ELSE? I DON’T. THIS IS GOING TO BE THE O.J. SIMPSON. THE GLOVE DON’T FIT. DON’T FIT. TYPE OF ISSUE. BUT I DO THINK IT MIGHT BE A STANCE EXPLAINING YOURSELF. >> ALL RIGHT. AARON KATERSKY BRIAN BUCKMIRE BE WATCHING THAT ONE CLOSELY.

>> THANK YOU. MEANWHILE, IT LOOKS LIKE PEOPLE TO LEAVE ARE FINALLY MAKING THEIR WAY OUT OF GAZA. 17 AMBULANCES, EACH CARRYING ONE INJURED GAZAN HAVE NOW CROSSED THE BORDER. EGYPT, ALONG WITH 110 DUAL NATIONALS. HUNDREDS OF FOREIGN NATIONALS TRAPPED IN GAZA, INCLUDING AT LEAST FIVE AMERICANS, ARE STILL WAITING TO CROSS.

THIS AS ISRAELI FORCES SAY THEY’VE KILLED A TOP HAMAS COMMANDER WITH AN AIRSTRIKE IN GAZA’S LARGEST REFUGEE CAMP. CHIEF FOREIGN CORRESPONDENT IAN PANEL HAS MORE FROM STEWART, ISRAEL. HUNDREDS OF FOREIGN NATIONALS, INCLUDING AT LEAST FIVE AMERICANS TRAPPED IN GAZA SINCE THE WAR BEGAN, HAVE FINALLY BEEN ALLOWED TO CROSS INTO EGYPT.

>> DOZENS OF AMBULANCES TO FERRY THE MOST BADLY WOUNDED GAZANS MOVING INTO THE BORDER AREA. THE FIRST JUST SEEN CROSSING BACK INTO EGYPT AS ISRAEL CONTINUES TO STRIKE OVERNIGHT, SAYING IT CARRIED OUT THE DEADLY STRIKE ON A REFUGEE CAMP IN GAZA. >> AT LEAST 52 PEOPLE KILLED, ACCORDING TO THE HAMAS RUN

HEALTH MINISTRY. SURVIVORS DESPERATELY SCOURING THROUGH THE DEBRIS IN JABALYA LOOKING FOR PEOPLE BURIED IN THE RUBBLE. CHILDREN AMONG THE VICTIMS BATHED IN DUST FROM THE DEADLY ATTACK ON ONE OF THE MOST DENSELY POPULATED PARTS OF GAZA. A HUGE SPEAKS TO THE POWER OF THE STRIKE AND A HOSPITAL NEARBY INUNDATED WITH PATIENTS.

DOCTORS ALREADY OVERWHELMED. NOW TENDING TO YET MORE CHILDREN WOUNDED IN A WAR THEY CAN’T ESCAPE. ISRAEL’S DEFENSE FORCES SAY THEY WERE TARGETING AND SUCCESSFULLY KILLING TOP HAMAS COMMANDER WHO PLAYED A MAJOR ROLE IN PLANNING THE OCTOBER 7TH ATTACK THAT KILLED 1400 PEOPLE IN ISRAEL. THE IDF SAYS THAT HAMAS HIDES

BEHIND CIVILIANS, USING THEM AS HUMAN SHIELDS. I PRESSED AN IDF SPOKESMAN ON WHY ISRAEL WOULD TARGET REFUGEE CAMP PACKED WITH CIVILIANS. >> WE UNDERSTAND THAT THERE WERE SECONDARY EXPLOSIONS AND THAT SUBTERRANEAN INFRASTRUCTURE ALSO EXPLODED OR IMPLODED AS A RESULT OF SOME KIND OF SECONDARY EXPLOSION, AND THAT THERE ARE QUITE A LOT

OF CASUALTIES IN THE AREA. PRESUMABLY MIDDLE AND CERTAIN CIVILIAN CASUALTIES AT THIS STAGE, I CAN CONFIRM THAT THEY. I CAN I ASSESS THAT IS THE CASE. >> THE DEATH TOLL IN GAZA NOW OVER EIGHT AND A HALF THOUSAND, ACCORDING TO THE PALESTINIAN HEALTH MINISTRY. >> ISRAELI FORCES MOVING DEEPER

INTO GAZA, RELEASING FOOTAGE SHOWING ITS TROOPS ON THE GROUND. AN ABC NEWS ANALYSIS SHOWING THE AREAS WHERE ISRAELI ARE NOW OPERATING IN GAZA FACE TO FACE BATTLES WITH HAMAS FIGHTERS IN NORTHERN GAZA. AND TODAY ANNOUNCING 11 SOLDIERS HAVE NOW BEEN KILLED IN ACTION. HAMAS RELEASING THIS FOOTAGE, APPEARING TO SHOW FIGHTERS

EMERGING FROM UNDERGROUND TUNNELS, FIRING WHAT THEY SAY ARE ISRAELI TARGETS ALONG THE BORDER. >> ON SUNDAY. >> THE SITUATION FOR GAZANS NOW DESPERATE. SECRETARY OF STATE ANTONY BLINKEN SAYING THE ADMINISTRATION IS TRYING TO GET OUT HUNDREDS OF AMERICAN PASSPORT HOLDERS. >> AMONG THEM, LENA PERSICO FROM UTAH. >> SHE’S CALLING ON PRESIDENT

BIDEN FOR HELP. WE’RE STUCK HERE IN GAZA FEELING ABANDONED AND MISTREATED BY OUR OWN COUNTRY BECAUSE OUR COUNTRY IS SUPPOSED TO BE THE ONE THAT BACKS UP TO MAKE SURE THAT THERE CITIZENS COME HOME SAFELY. WE HAVEN’T SLEPT FOR 24 DAYS. AND CHIEF FOREIGN CORRESPONDENT IAN PANNELL JOINS

US LIVE NOW FROM STEWART. >> AND WHAT ARE YOU HEARING ABOUT HOW MANY PEOPLE HAVE ACROSS THAT BORDER NOW FROM GAZA INTO EGYPT? >> YEAH, WHAT WE UNDERSTAND IS THAT AT LEAST HUNDRED FOREIGN PASSPORT HOLDERS HAVE CROSSED OVER AND 17 AMBULANCES WERE TOLD IS ONLY ONE PASSENGER

IN EACH OF THOSE AMBULANCES. THE PALESTINIAN RED CRESCENT THIS MORNING SAID THAT THERE WERE 81 SEVERELY INJURED PEOPLE, DESPERATELY NEEDED MEDICAL AID WHO WAS SUPPOSED TO CROSS INTO EGYPT. CLEARLY, SOME OF THEM HAVE BEEN ABLE TO CROSS OVER, BUT NOT ALL. WE WERE ALSO TOLD THAT THERE WERE 400 FOREIGN PASSPORT HOLDERS, INCLUDING

FIVE AMERICANS. NOW, THESE ARE AMERICANS WHO ARE AID WORKERS WHO WERE WHO WERE WORKING IN GAZA WHEN THE WAR STARTED. THE BORDERS WERE CLOSED AND THEY WERE UNABLE TO LEAVE. THE FIVE AMERICAN PASSPORT HOLDERS WHO ARE AID WORKERS ALSO AMONGST THAT NUMBER, WE’RE TOLD THAT THEY’RE IN THIS KIND

OF NO MAN’S LAND AT THE MOMENT BETWEEN, GAZA AND EGYPT AT THE RAFAH BORDER CROSSING. NO WORD YET AS TO WHETHER OR NOT THEY’VE CROSSED, BUT I THINK IT’S A BIG DEAL BECAUSE NO ONE HAS BEEN ABLE TO LEAVE GAZA SINCE THE MASSACRE HERE IN ISRAEL ON OCTOBER THE SEVENTH.

THE FACT THAT SOME DEAL HAS CEASED SEEMS TO HAVE BEEN DONE TO ALLOW FOR THE FLOW OF AID IN AND FOR BADLY INJURED PEOPLE AND FOREIGN PASSPORT HOLDERS TO LEAVE, I THINK CERTAINLY FOR THE HUNDREDS OF AMERICAN PASSPORT HOLDERS AND CERTAINLY GOOD NEWS. >> IT DOES SOUND THAT WAY.

MEANWHILE, THE IDF IS SAYING THAT THEY KILLED TOP HAMAS COMMANDER IN THAT REFUGEE CAMP IN GAZA. WE HEARD YOU PUSHING THEM FOR MORE ANSWERS ABOUT THE CIVILIAN CASUALTIES THERE. >> WHAT’S THE LATEST ON THAT ATTACK? >> YEAH, THAT’S RIGHT. I MEAN, ACCORDING TO THE HAMAS RUN PALESTINIAN HEALTH AUTHORITIES, MORE THAN

50 PEOPLE DIED AND A NUMBER WERE WOUNDED. WE’VE SEEN KIND DISTRESSING IMAGES CIRCULATING ONLINE OF PATIENTS AT THE HOSPITAL THAT IS VERY CLOSE TO THE JABALYA REFUGEE CAMP. BILL, I SPOKE TO THE IDF ABOUT THAT PARTICULAR ATTACK. THEY SAID THAT, YES, THEY CARRIED IT OUT. THEY SAID THAT THEY WERE

TARGETING A KEY HAMAS COMMANDER WHO WAS ONE OF THOSE PEOPLE INVOLVED, THE OCTOBER 7TH MASSACRE. THEY ALSO MANAGED TO CAPTURE MATCH TO KILL A NUMBER OF OTHER HAMAS FIGHTERS. THEY WHAT THEY SAY HAPPENED AT THE SITE WAS THAT WHEN THEY BOMBED IT AND AGAIN, IT WAS UNCLEAR ABOUT WHETHER THERE

WAS ONE BOMB OR MORE, BUT SAID THERE WAS MORE THAN ONE FIGHTER JETS IN THE AIR. THE TUNNEL SYSTEM, WHICH THEY WERE TARGETING, ESSENTIALLY COLLAPSED. AND THAT EXPLAINS SOME OF THE DAMAGE. BUT AS YOU WRITE, WE PRESSED THEM. >> LET’S LISTEN TO WHAT HE HAD TO SAY.

>> WE TRY NOT TO STRIKE LOCATIONS WHERE THERE CIVILIANS. BUT THE SAD REALITY IN GAZA IS THAT HAMAS USES THOSE CIVILIANS EXACTLY LIKE WHAT WE ARE SEEING TODAY IN AN ATTEMPT TO SHIELD THEMSELVES FROM OUR ATTACKS. THEY HAVE CIVILIANS ABOVE THEM AND THEY HIDE IN THEIR TUNNELS.

>> I THINK IT SHOULD BE CLEAR TO THEM AND TO EVERYBODY ELSE IN GAZA AND EVERYBODY WATCHING. WE HAVE ASKED THE CIVILIANS TO EVACUATE. WE HAVE GIVEN THEM AMPLE TIME. WE HAVE SAID IT IN ARABIC. WE HAVE TOLD THEM WHERE TO EVACUATE TO. ANYBODY WHO STAYS IN THE

NORTHERN PART OF GAZA IS ACTIVE ENDANGERING HIMSELF AND HE SHOULD MAKE IT. WELL, THAT WAS JONATHAN CONRICUS, WHO IS THE SPOKESMAN FOR THE IDF FOR ONE OF THE KEY SPOKESMEN FOR THE IDF, WHICH ALSO HAS A NUMBER OF OTHER THINGS, BECAUSE HE SAID THAT THEY HAD INTELLIGENCE THAT THIS KEY

HAMAS COMMANDER ON THE SIDES. I MEAN, I ASKED IF YOU HAD INTELLIGENCE THAT THEY WERE THERE, DID YOU KNOW THAT THERE WERE CIVILIANS? HE SAID THAT WASN’T THE CASE. WHAT HE SAID THAT THEY’VE BEEN URGING CIVILIANS TO LEAVE THE NORTHERN PARTS OF GAZA, WHICH THEY DONE AGAIN, ACTUALLY IN THE LAST HOUR.

THE ISRAELI DEFENSE FORCES HAVE BEEN DROPPING LEAFLETS URGING ANYONE LEFT THERE TO LEAVE. HE SUGGESTED THAT HAMAS WAS TRYING TO MAKE IT DIFFICULT FOR MANY PEOPLE TO LEAVE. BUT ALSO THE REALITY IS MANY PEOPLE DON’T HAVE MANY OPTIONS. SOME PEOPLE WHO FLED SOUTH BECAUSE THEY TOLD THAT WOULD BE SAFER ALSO CAME ACROSS

SOME OF THE BOMBING AND WENT BACK HOME TO THE NORTH. BUT IT’S A DIFFICULT SITUATION FOR EVERYONE. THERE. >> AND SURE, AS CHIEF FOREIGN CORRESPONDENT IAN PANNELL, STAY SAFE AND THANK YOU. MEANWHILE, HERE AT HOME, A NEW FUNDING FIGHT IS BREWING IN WASHINGTON. THE BIDEN ADMINISTRATION IS ASKING CONGRESS FOR BILLIONS

OF DOLLARS FOR ISRAEL, FOR HUMANITARIAN AID FOR PALESTINIANS AND FOR UKRAINE. NOW, THE NEW SPEAKER OF THE HOUSE, MIKE JOHNSON, IS DEMANDING THAT MONEY TAKEN FROM THE IRS BUDGET. >> HE PUT THIS TO THE AMERICAN PEOPLE AND THEY WEIGH THE TWO NEEDS. I THINK THEY’RE GOING TO SAY STANDING WITH ISRAEL

AND PROTECTING THE INNOCENT OVER THERE IS IN OUR NATIONAL INTEREST AND IS A MORE IMMEDIATE NEED. >> AN IRS AGENTS. CRITICS CUTTING THE IRS BUDGET COULD AFFECT SOME TAXPAYER SERVICES AND HURT ENFORCEMENT TAX CHEATERS. SENIOR CONGRESSIONAL CORRESPONDENT RACHEL SCOTT HAS THE LATEST ON THAT. >> HI, RACHEL. HEY, DIANE. WELL, THE BIDEN ADMINISTRATION

BEEN MAKING THE ROUNDS HERE ON CAPITOL HILL, PLEADING WITH CONGRESS FOR ADDITIONAL FUNDING FOR BOTH ISRAEL AND UKRAINE, INSISTING THAT THESE TWO WARS ARE INTERCONNECTED. BUT REPUBLICANS OVER IN THE HOUSE REMAIN UNCONVINCED. THE PRESIDENT IS ASKING CONGRESS FOR $14 BILLION IN AID TO ISRAEL, 61 BILLION IN AID TO UKRAINE.

>> THERE IS BIPARTISAN SUPPORT FOR THAT OVER IN THE SENATE. BUT IN THE HOUSE, THE NEW SPEAKER IS PLANNING TO MOVE FORWARD WITH HIS OWN PROPOSAL, EXPECTED TO PUT A BILL ON THE FLOOR TOMORROW THAT WOULD ONLY INCLUDE FUNDING FOR ISRAEL. AND IT ALSO INCLUDES KEY DEMAND FROM JOHNSON THAT ANY OF THE

MONEY SPENT ON ISRAEL WOULD THEN HAVE TO BE CUT FROM THE BUDGET OF THE IRS. JOHNSON LIKE A GROWING NUMBER OF REPUBLICANS OVER IN THE HOUSE, ARE SKEPTICAL. THEY HAVE DEEP RESERVATIONS ABOUT MORE FUNDING FOR UKRAINE. SAYING INCLUDING IT IN THEIR BILL IS A NONSTARTER. BUT THIS HAS NOW SET THE STAGE

FOR A MASSIVE FIGHT. THIS MORNING, THE WHITE SAYS THE PRESIDENT WOULD VETO THAT REPUBLICAN PROPOSAL FROM THE HOUSE. JUST SAYING FLAT OUT THAT IT’S BAD FOR NATIONAL SECURITY. THE MIDDLE EAST AND ISRAEL DIANE. >> ALL RIGHT. SENIOR CONGRESSIONAL CORRESPONDENT RACHEL SCOTT, THANK YOU. AND NEARLY 90 MILLION AMERICANS FROM NEW YORK TO

TEXAS ARE UNDER FREEZE ALERTS. SOME PARTS OF THE COUNTRY EVEN GETTING THEIR FIRST SNOW OF THE SEASON. METEOROLOGIST THEODORE JOINS ME NOW. >> AND SEEMA, IS THIS A TEMPORARY THING OR IS THIS JUST WHAT WE DO NOW? YOU THINK? RIGHT. WELL, WE DO HAVE A WARM ON

THE WAY, BUT IT MAY GET A LITTLE WORSE BEFORE IT GETS A LITTLE BETTER. ALL RIGHT. SO COME WITH ME RIGHT NOW TO CHICAGO. HELLO, CHICAGO. HOW ARE YOU DOING THIS MORNING ? THIS IS YOU ALL YESTERDAY. SHE’S GOT A BLANKET ON HERE. HE’S VIDEO RECORDING THIS.

>> WE’VE GOT SIR, WALKING IN A VEST AND A REAL COAT THERE. SO MAYBE NOT EVERYONE WAS PREPARED FOR THIS. AND THAT’S UNDERSTANDABLE, BECAUSE IN CHICAGO THIS IS THE THIS IS ABOUT THE THIRD TIME IN RECORDED HISTORY WHERE THEY’VE SEEN MEASURABLE SNOW ON HALLOWEEN. LAST TIME WE SAW THAT WAS IN 2014, 2019.

SO THEY GOT A NICE LITTLE WHITE THERE AND THE SNOWFALL CONTINUES. IN FACT, TODAY WE HAVE A LAKE EFFECT WARNING FOR PARTS OF OHIO AND PENNSYLVANIA. ONCE THAT LAKE EFFECT SNOW GETS GOING, IT’S LIKE A MACHINE AND WE TEND TO SEE THAT ON THE EASTERN SIDE OF OHIO.

NOW, 3 TO 6 INCHES IS CERTAINLY POSSIBLE. GENERALLY SPEAKING, THOUGH, IN THESE SHADED AREAS OF GRAY UP INTO BUFFALO, SYRACUSE, WE COULD SEE ABOUT 1 TO 3 INCHES OF SNOW, MAYBE DOWN INTO AREAS WEST VIRGINIA IN THE HIGHER ELEVATIONS THERE. THE TEMPERATURES, THOUGH THAT’S IMPACTING A WIDE SWATH OF FOLKS OUT THERE.

WE HAVE FREEZE ALERTS STILL STRETCHING FROM TEXAS THROUGH THE SOUTH INTO UP TO RALEIGH, UP BY 95 UNTIL THE DELMARVA PENINSULA DMV, HOW YOU DO IN PHILADELPHIA, YOU’RE ALSO UNDER FREEZE ALERTS THIS MORNING AND WINTER’S COMING AT THIS POINT. I THINK I’M GOING HAVE TO CHANGE THAT TO WINTER IS HERE.

>> TEMPERATURES THIS MORNING WE’RE IN THE TWENTIES AND THIRTIES. IT WAS A REALLY COLD. WE HAVE THIS WINTER LIKE AIR MASS, REALLY SETTING UP SHOP TOMORROW IN THE NORTHEAST. SO IF YOU WOKE UP IN NEW YORK CITY THIS MORNING AND YOU STEPPED OUTSIDE AND YOU SAID IT’S COLD, I’VE GOT NEWS

DIANE, LOOK AT THESE MILD CONDITIONS AHEAD. OH, MY GOODNESS. I NEVER THOUGHT I’D BE SO HAPPY TO SEE THE 60S.

>> YEAH, I AM. SO WE DON’T HAVE TO BRING OUT ALL THE PARK IS JUST. YEAH, WE CAN STILL KEEP YOUR LIGHT JACKET AROUND A LITTLE BIT. >> IS IT STILL A LITTLE SWEATER WEATHER? I’LL TAKE IT. ALL RIGHT. METEOROLOGIST SOMARA THEODORE. THANK YOU. THANK. COMING UP, WILL INTEREST RATES

A WHOLE BUNCH OF STUFF, INCLUDING THE FEDERAL RESERVE. DIANE SO THE FED IS EXPECTED TO KEEP INTEREST RATES ON HOLD

AT THE END OF ITS MEETING TODAY. IT’S ALREADY HIKED RATES 11 TIMES IN THE PAST YEAR A HALF, MAKING IT A WHOLE LOT MORE EXPENSIVE TO BORROW MONEY DURING TIME. MORTGAGE RATES HAVE MORE THAN DOUBLED TO A 23 YEAR HIGH OF AROUND 8%. AND THE AVERAGE CREDIT CARD

RATE NOW AT A RECORD HIGH OF NEARLY 21%. FED’S GOAL IS TO SLOW DOWN SPENDING, TO TAME INFLATION AND THERE ARE SIGNS IT’S WORKING. AS OVERALL PRICES COOL OFF INVESTORS WILL BE LISTENING FOR CLUES ABOUT THE FUTURE DIRECTION OF INTEREST RATES. WHEN FED CHAIR JEROME POWELL TAKES QUESTIONS FROM REPORTERS

THIS AFTERNOON. OF COURSE, THE PERK OF THESE HIGHER INTEREST RATES IS THAT IT CAN PAY TO PUT MORE MONEY IN THE SAVINGS BANK. SOME HIGH YIELD SAVINGS ACCOUNTS NOW OFFERING RETURNS OF ABOUT 5%. WE WORK IS PLANNING TO FILE FOR BANKRUPTCY AS EARLY AS NEXT WEEK. THAT’S ACCORDING TO THE

“WALL STREET JOURNAL”. ONCE A DARLING OF THE VENTURE CAPITAL WORLD. IT WOULD BE A STUNNING REVERSAL FOR THE SHARED OFFICE SPACE COMPANY, WHICH WAS ONCE VALUED AT A STAGGERING $7 BILLION. PART OF THE PROBLEM MUCH OF WE WORKS OFFICE SPACE SITS EMPTY POST-PANDEMIC AND THE COMPANY IS SADDLED WITH DEBT.

AND CAN CRANBERRIES UP 60%? ALTHOUGH THE CENTERPIECE BIRD TURKEY AVERAGING A DOLLAR 47 A POUND, IS DOWN 9% FROM LAST YEAR. >> A LOT OF TIMES THE CANNED PRICES REPRESENT, WHAT HAPPENED A YEAR AGO, BECAUSE IT TAKES A LONG TIME TO PREPARE THEM AND PUT THEM INTO THE INTO THE SUPERMARKETS.

SO LAST YEAR THERE WAS LABOR DISRUPTION THERE, WAS A PACKAGING DISRUPTION. SO CRANBERRY PRICES AND IT CAN WHAT WAS HAPPENING YEARS AGO. >> EXPERTS SAY GROCERY STORES ARE MARKING UP THE PRODUCTS FROM WHOLESALE PRICES HIGHER THAN THEY EVER HAVE BEFORE. >> BUT THERE ARE SOME WAYS

>> THE SITUATION FOR GAZANS, NO DESPERATE. SECRETARY OF STATE ANTONY BLINKEN SAYING THE ADMINISTRATION’S TO GET OUT HUNDREDS OF AMERICAN PASSPORT HOLDERS AMONG LENA PERSICO FROM UTAH. SHE’S CALLING ON PRESIDENT BIDEN. >> HELP. WE’RE STUCK HERE IN GAZA FEELING ABANDONED AND MISTREATED BY OUR OWN COUNTRY BECAUSE OUR COUNTRY

IS SUPPOSED TO BE THE ONE THAT TO MAKE SURE THAT THEIR CITIZENS COME HOME SAFELY. WE HAVEN’T SLEPT FOR 24 DAYS. >> CHIEF FOREIGN CORRESPONDENT, THANK YOU. AND EXPERTS NOW WARN WARS OVERSEAS COULD LEAD TO A GLOBAL HEALTH CRISIS. THEY SAY WHILE PEOPLE IN WAR TORN AREAS SUFFER PHYSICAL AND PSYCHOLOGICAL DISTRESS,

OTHERS COULD ALSO SUFFER MENTAL AND PHYSICAL HEALTH ISSUES DUE TO FEAR AND STRESS. ABC NEWS MEDICAL CONTRIBUTOR AND PHYSICIAN AT STANFORD CHILDREN’S HEALTH DR. ALOK PATEL IS HERE WITH MORE ON THIS. >> DR. PATEL, HOW DOES THIS WORK? HOW CAN PEOPLE WITH NO DIRECT CONNECTION TO THESE WARS SUFFER MENTAL AND PHYSICAL EFFECTS

FROM THEM? >> SIMPLY PUT, DIANE ARE WIRED AS HUMANS TO BE EMPATHETIC CREATURES. WHEN WE SEE OR HEAR STORIES OF OTHERS WHO ARE SUFFERING, IT DOES AFFECT US AND ANYONE WHO HAS WITH TRAUMA SURVIVORS CAN ATTEST TO THE FACT THAT WE CAN EXPERIENCE SOMETHING CALLED VICARIOUS TRAUMA. WE SEE THE IMAGES.

WE HEAR ABOUT WHAT IS HAPPENING TO PEOPLE WHO ARE DISPLACED OR INJURED, WHOSE FRIENDS OR FAMILY ARE AT RISK, AND THAT CAN ACTUALLY CAUSE SYMPTOMS OF POST-TRAUMATIC STRESS. YOU CAN HAVE DEPRESSION, ANXIETY AND A LACK OF SLEEP AS. WE WERE TRYING TO FIGURE OUT WHAT POSSIBLY COULD BE A

SOLUTION TO END ALL THIS SUFFERING. AND IT’S IMPORTANT TO NOTE, AS YOU MENTIONED, THAT THIS GOES FAR BEYOND THE EFFECTS OF WAR, WHETHER THAT’S CRASH BURNS OR INJURIES. BUT THERE THESE INDIRECT EFFECTS AS WELL, SUCH AS A LACK OF HEALTH CARE ACCESS, DISPLACEMENT FOR SO MANY MILLIONS OF PEOPLE, LACK

OF FOOD, WATER, SANITATION, EFFECTS ON MATERNAL HEALTH, CHILDREN’S HEALTH, AND THESE BROAD EFFECTS ON MENTAL HEALTH FOR PEOPLE. >> AND THIS AFFECTS HUNDREDS OF MILLIONS OF PEOPLE WORLDWIDE BECAUSE OF ALL THE CONFLICT OUT THERE. >> THIS IS A GLOBAL HEALTH CATASTROPHE. NOW, DR. PATEL, EXPERTS SAY THAT AND I’M QUOTING HERE,

INDIRECT HEALTH EFFECTS SOMETIMES LONG AFTER THE WAR IS OVER. >> SO HOW LONG ARE WE TALKING AND HOW CAN YOU TELL IF THIS IS AFFECTING YOU IN A WAY THAT CALLS PROFESSIONAL HELP? >> WHEN WE LOOK AT THE INDIRECT EFFECTS OF WAR, WE LOOK AT STUDIES AND YOU CAN LOOK

THROUGHOUT TIME OF THE EFFECTS OF WAR IN LATIN AMERICA, SOUTHEAST ASIA, SYRIA, ETHIOPE YEMEN, UKRAINE, AND NOW WHAT WE’RE SEEING RIGHT NOW IN ISRAEL AND GAZA IT’S SIMPLY ASTONISHING TO LOOK AT WHAT CAN HAPPEN AND TAKE DOWN THE HEALTHCARE INFRASTRUCTURE OF A WAR ZONE AND ALL OF A SUDDEN PEOPLE DON’T HAVE

ACCESS TO PREVENTATIVE CARE OR THE ABILITY TO MANAGE CHRONIC CONDITIONS. THIS CAN LAST AN ENTIRE LIFETIME THERE. THEIR STUDIES LOOKING AT THE RISK CHILDREN ARE IN WHEN THEY’RE BORN INTO A PLACE OF CONFLICT. HOW CAN AFFECT THEIR LONG TERM DEVELOPMENT IN TOXIC STRESS? >> IT IS AWFUL FOR OUR BRAINS.

IT CAN INCREASE OUR RISK OF SO MANY DIFFERENT HEALTH CONDITIONS AND PEOPLE OUT THERE WHO ARE WITNESSING THIS AND IT CAN FUEL THOSE SENSES OF GUILT, OF HELPLESSNESS, OF ANXIETY. THEY’RE LOSING SLEEP. IT’S SO TO CHECK IN ON YOURSELF, I WANT TO SEE HOW THIS IS AFFECTING YOUR DAY TO FUNCTIONING.

>> AND IT’S OKAY TO TAKE A STEP BACK, ASK FOR HELP AS YOU’RE TRYING TO PROCESS WHAT IS HAPPENING. >> SO, DR. PATEL, WHAT CAN PEOPLE DO TO TAKE CARE OF THEIR PHYSICAL, MENTAL HEALTH RIGHT NOW? >> AND HOW DO WE DO THE SAME FOR OUR KIDS? >> IT’S REALLY IMPORTANT FOR

PEOPLE TO TAKE SOME TIME FOR SELF OBSERVATION AND ASK YOURSELF HOW YOU ARE DOING, HOW IS YOUR MENTAL HEALTH? CHECK IN ON YOUR FRIENDS AND FAMILY? AND IT MAY SEEM COUNTERINTUITIVE FOR A POPULATION WHO TO PAY ATTENTION TO THE NEWS, BUT TAKING BREAKS AWAY FROM NEWS HEADLINES, AWAY FROM SOCIAL MEDIA, ENCOURAGING THIS

FOR YOUR KIDS TO NOT ONLY BE GOOD FOR OUR MENTAL HEALTH, BUT CAN ACTUALLY HELP OUR BRAINS PROCESS WHAT IS GOING ON, OUR EMOTIONAL REGULATION, OUR JUDGMENT. >> IT’S ALSO A REALLY GOOD IDEA TO FOR HELP ENCOURAGE PEOPLE AROUND YOU TO DO THE SAME, WHETHER IT’S GOING TO YOUR FRIENDS OR THERAPY.

AND I HAD LAST BUT DEFINITELY NOT LEAST, IS THINKING ABOUT TRYING TO CHANNEL YOUR ENERGY INTO SOMETHING ACTIONABLE. IS IT WORKING ON AN ADVOCACY PROJECT? IS IT DONATING? IS IT TALKING TO PEOPLE WHO MAY HAVE FRIENDS, FAMILY WHO ARE AFFECTED? >> IS IT SOMETHING THAT YOU FEEL LIKE YOU CAN DO THAT’S

CONSTRUCTIVE? I THINK RIGHT NOW THE MAJOR MESSAGES AS WE ARE WAITING FOR THE WORLD, FIND AN ANSWER TO FIND A WAY TOWARDS PEACE. WE CAN ALL DO BETTER FOR OURSELVES, TO BE MORE EMPATHETIC AND COMPASSIONATE. >> I THINK THAT IS SOMETHING WE CAN ALL TRY TO DO. >> DR. PATEL, THANK YOU.

>> THANK YOU. AND A NEW REPORT IS RAISING CONCERNS ABOUT, CANCER AND PEOPLE UNDER THE AGE OF 39. THE REPORT OUT OF FLORIDA FOUND THE NUMBER OF YOUNGER ADULTS BEING DIAGNOSED WITH CANCER INCREASED IN THE PAST DECADE, ECHOING NUMBERS WE’RE SEEING NATIONWIDE. GEORGE STEPHANOPOULOS BREAKS DOWN THOSE NUMBERS.

>> A NEW MEDICAL REPORT OUT OF FLORIDA HIGHLIGHTS A 15% INCREASE IN THE RATE OF CANCER IN PEOPLE AGES 20 TO 39. THAT’S FROM 2010 TO 2020. WITH CANCER BEING THE MOST COMMON IN THAT AGE RANGE, AS WELL AS THYROID CANCER AND MELANOMA. THE FINDINGS ARE LARGELY CONSISTENT WITH NATIONAL TRENDS

THAT SHOW INCREASED DIAGNOSES IN PEOPLE UNDER 50, ESPECIALLY FOR BREAST CANCER AND CANCER AND HIGHER EARLY CANCER RATES IN WOMEN THAN IN MEN. THE SCREENING AGE FOR BOTH TYPES OF CANCER RECENTLY LOWERED FOR WOMEN LIKE INDIANA . LAUREN DEGAS, WHO WAS DIAGNOSED WITH CANCER AT AGE 31.

>> IT CAN COME OUT OF THE BLUE. I WAS COMPLETELY SHOCKED, MAINLY BECAUSE THERE WASN’T ANY TYPE OF STRONG CANCER HISTORY IN MY FAMILY THAT I KNEW OF AND MISSED A LOT OF THE EARLY WARNING SIGNS. >> IT WASN’T ON MY RADAR AT ALL. AND FOR MARQUITA MORROW,

WHO GOT HER CANCER DIAGNOSIS AT 33 AND IS NOW CANCER FREE, SHE’S HOPING TO GET THE MESSAGE OUT THAT IT CAN HAPPEN TO ANYONE. >> IT IS VERY IMPORTANT. BE AWARE OF YOUR BODY MAKING SURE THAT YOU ARE TAKING OF YOURSELF, EATING HEALTHY, EXERCISING AND DOING SELF-EXAMS

TO MAKE SURE THAT IF CHANGES OR IF THERE’S SOMETHING GOING ON WITH YOUR BODY, YOU CAN FIND IT AND YOU CAN BE AN ADVOCATE FOR YOURSELF. GEORGE STEPHANOPOULOS, THANK YOU. AND OUR CHIEF MEDICAL CORRESPONDENT, DR. JEN ASHTON, SAYS A GLOBAL TREND OF HIGHER DIAGNOSIS IS STILL UNCLEAR. BUT THINGS LIKE ENVIRONMENTAL

EXPOSURE AND BEHAVIORS LIKE POOR DIET, EXCESSIVE DRINKING AND LACK OF EXERCISE ALL PLAY A ROLE. >> COMING UP, REAL ESTATE RIP OFF A MAJOR RULING FINDS REALTORS LIABLE FOR COLLUDING TO KEEP COMMISSIONS HIGH.

WHEREVER THE STORY IS, WE’LL TAKE YOU THERE. BABABACK.WS LIVE. THE FEDERAL GOVERNMENT’S SAYS IT’S WORKING TO FIX A NUMBER

OF PROBLEMS PLAGUING THE RESTART OF STUDENT LOAN REPAYMENTS. THE DEPARTMENT OF EDUCATION SAYS ROUGHLY 830,000 PEOPLE MISSED THEIR FIRST PAYMENTS AFTER LOAN SERVICE FAILED TO SEND OUT TIMELY NOTICES TO MORE THAN 2 MILLION BORROWERS. THE DEPARTMENT OF EDUCATION SPOKESPERSON ALSO TELLS ABC NEWS 21,000 PEOPLE RECEIVED INCORRECT BILLS AND 16,000

MORE RECEIVED BILLS DESPITE THE BIDEN ADMINISTRATION CANCELING THEIR DEBT. LET’S BRING IN SENIOR NATIONAL POLICY REPORTER AND FLAHERTY FOR MORE ON THIS. >> AND THIS SOUNDS LIKE A MESS. WHAT WENT WRONG HERE? YEAH, IT’S ABOUT THE MESS THAT YOU WOULD EXPECT AFTER THERE’S BEEN THREE YEAR HIATUS WHERE PEOPLE DIDN’T HAVE

TO MAKE PAYMENTS ON THESE STUDENT. >> AND I THINK THERE ARE REALLY TWO BIG THINGS THAT ARE HAPPENING HERE. IS THAT ELIGIBILITY? >> ELIGIBILITY? I CAN’T SAY THAT WORD PEOPLE ARE QUALIFYING FOR DIFFERENT THINGS. SO THERE’S NOW A SAVE IT PROGRAM THAT BIDEN HAS IN EFFECT THAT BASICALLY SET

YOUR MONTHLY PAYMENT TO YOUR INCOME LEVEL. SO PEOPLE ARE NOW HAVING TO PAY DIFFERENT THINGS EACH MONTH THAN THEY DID BEFORE. SO THE SERVICERS ARE SCRAMBLING TO FIGURE THAT OUT. I THINK THE OTHER THING THAT’S HAPPENED THAT THESE LOAN SERVICERS HAVE CHANGED SO NAVIENT EXAMPLE, WITH A VERY

LARGE LOAN SERVICER THAT IS NO WORKING ON FEDERAL STUDENT LOANS. SO PEOPLE NOW HAVE DIFFERENT COMPANIES THAT THEY’RE DEALING WITH. SO QUITE A BIT OF A MESS. >> AFTER THREE YEARS, EVERYTHING HAS CHANGED. SO WHAT DOES THIS FOR BORROWERS AND COULD THOSE WHO MISSED PAYMENTS FACE PENALTIES EVEN IF

THEY DIDN’T GET THE NOTICE IN TIME? >> SO I THINK THE REALLY BIG TO UNDERSTAND WITH THIS IS THAT NOBODY IS GOING TO BE FACING PENALTIES FOR ABOUT A YEAR. UNDER THE BIDEN ADMINISTRATION, THEY HAVE SAID THEY’RE GOING TO GIVE A YEAR GRACE PERIOD. BUT SPECIFICALLY FOR THESE PEOPLE WHO HAD MAHELA,

THEY WERE WORKING WITH THAT LOAN SERVICER AND THEY DIDN’T GET THEIR BILLS TIME. THE ADMINISTRATION HAS ASKED MAHELA TO PUT THOSE ACCOUNTS IN WHAT THEY CALL ADMINISTRATIVE FORBEARANCE, ESSENTIALLY PUT THEM ON ICE SO THAT NOBODY IS PENALIZED IF THEY DIDN’T MAKE THAT PAYMENT TIME. YOU’RE SUPPOSED TO GET

ABOUT THREE WEEKS NOTICE. SOME PEOPLE ONLY GOT LESS THAN A WEEK. THEY SAY THAT’S NOT FAIR. THEY’RE TRYING TO SORT THROUGH THESE PROGRAM PROBLEMS RIGHT NOW. >> SO THE ADMINISTRATION NOW SAYS THEY’RE WORKING TO FIX THESE ISSUES. HOW SO? IN ADDITION TO ASKING FOR THAT ADMINISTRATIVE FORBEARANCE WITH MAHELA ACCOUNT OWNERS,

THE IS ALSO DOING SOMETHING WE HAVEN’T SEEN BEFORE. THEY ARE GOING THESE LOAN SERVICERS THAT ARE MAKING MISTAKES AND SAYING, LOOK, WE’RE GOING TO WITHHOLD MONEY FROM YOUR CONTRACT UNTIL YOU CAN FIX THESE PROBLEMS. >> SO IN THE CASE OF, MAHELA, WE HAVE ASKED THEM FOR COMMENT. THEY DID NOT RESPOND TO A

REQUEST FOR COMMENT. ABC, BUT THEY ARE GOING. THE ADMINISTRATION SAYS THEY’RE GOING TO WITHHOLD $7 MILLION IN PAYMENTS ON THEIR CONTRACT UNTIL THEY CAN SORT OUT. >> SO HOW DO YOU FIND OUT IF YOUR ACCOUNT WAS IMPACTED OR WHAT DO YOU DO IF YOU HAVE QUESTIONS? YEAH, I THINK THE MOST

IMPORTANT THING IS THAT YOU HAVE TO CREATE A PAPER TRAIL. YOU HAVE TO GO THROUGH THOSE PAPERS. NOTHING IS GOING AWAY. YOU HAVE TO SORT THROUGH THEM AND FIGURE OUT WHETHER OR NOT THESE BILLS ARE ACCURATE. SO LOOK AT THEM CAREFULLY. CONTACT YOUR LOAN. YOU CAN ALSO GO TO STUDENT AID

DOT GOV. BUT YOU’VE GOT TO FIGURE THIS OUT. IT’S NOT GOING TO GO AWAY. ALL RIGHT. SENIOR NATIONAL POLICY REPORTER AND FLAHERTY, THANK YOU. >> AND A MAJOR RULING IN MISSOURI REAL ESTATE CASE COULD SHAKE UP THE MARKET FOR HOME BUYERS AND SELLERS. A KANSAS CITY JURY FOUND THE NATIONAL ASSOCIATION

OF REALTORS AND OTHER ORGANIZATIONS TO KEEP REALTOR COMMISSION FEES HIGH. THE PLAINTIFFS ARGUED THE ORGANIZATIONS FORCED HOME SELLERS TO PAY BOTH THE SELLER AND FEES. CALLING THAT PRACTICE WRONG AND ILLEGAL. THE JURY APPARENTLY AGREED, AWARDING HALF A MILLION DOLLARS TO MISSOURI HOME SELLERS, OR RATHER AWARDING HALF A MILLION

HOME SELLERS ONE POINT $8 BILLION IN DAMAGES. LET’S BRING IN ABC NEWS BUSINESS REPORTER ALEXIS CHRISTOFOROUS FOR MORE ON THAT. >> ALEXIS, SO HOW DID THESE ORGANIZATIONS FORCE SELLERS TO PAY THESE FEES? WELL, FIRST, I JUST TO TAKE A STEP BACK AND SAY THIS IS A HUGE PRECEDENT SETTING RULING.

IF IT STICKS AND IT COULD HAVE LONG LASTING RAMIFICATIONS FOR THE REAL ESTATE INDUSTRY, IT COULD CHANGE THE WAY AMERICANS PAY THOSE BROKER FEES GOING FORWARD. >> SO AT THE OF THIS CASE IS SOMETHING CALLED AN OFFER OF COMPENSATION, WHICH BASICALLY THE SELLER MUST PAY THE AGENT FEE FOR THEMSELVES,

BUT ALSO FOR THE BUYER. AND IN DOING SO, THEY’RE SAYING THAT THESE ORGANIZATIONS IN ESSENCE INFLATE THE HOME OF THE PRICE BECAUSE THOSE COMMISSIONS ARE ESSENTIALLY BAKED INTO THE PRICE. SO PEOPLE ARE PAYING PRICES ARE HIGHER. SO HOW COULD THIS CHANGE WAY REAL ESTATE AGENTS DO BUSINESS? AND WHAT DOES THIS MEAN FOR

SOMEONE TRYING TO BUY OR SELL A HOME? IT’S STILL YET TO BE DETERMINED, BUT THE FINAL JUDGMENT HASN’T COME DOWN FROM THIS JUDGE IN KANSAS CITY. BUT IT COULD MEAN THAT OFFER OF COMPENSATION IS NOT GOING TO BE A RULE NATIONWIDE WIDE. IT COULD MEAN THAT SELLERS

WILL NO LONGER HAVE TO PAY BROKER ON THE BUYER SIDE. AND IT COULD REALLY CHANGE THE DYNAMIC. I MEAN, THERE HAVE BEEN REPORTS THAT THE INTERNET HAS CHANGED THE REAL ESTATE INDUSTRY SO MUCH. NOW REGULAR FOLKS CAN GO ON AND DO RESEARCH IN THEIR ABOUT HOW MUCH IS A HOME SELLING FOR.

WHERE ARE THE HOMES FOR SALE THAT THEY’RE QUESTIONING THE OVERALL VALUE OF ESTATE AGENTS? THERE ARE SIMILAR CASES IN THE WORKS. MISSOURI. YOU’RE SAYING THIS COULD POTENTIALLY CATCH ON. SO WHAT’S THE LANDSCAPE THERE? I THINK IT’S A IT’S A CHANGING LANDSCAPE. AND A LOT IS GOING TO REST

ON WHETHER OR NOT THIS CASE REMAINS THE WAY IT IS. I MEAN, I KNOW THE NATIONAL ASSOCIATION OF REALTORS, THEY’RE GOING TO APPEAL. TWO MAJOR REAL ESTATE FIRMS PART OF THIS VERDICT. HOME AMERICA SERVICES SAYS THEY’RE GOING TO APPEAL. KELLER WILLIAMS SAYS THEY ARE THINKING ABOUT APPEALING.

THIS COULD TAKE YEARS TO GET THROUGH THE COURTS, BUT — BUT AT THE HEART, IT IS THESE COMPENSATION RULES AND THE WAY BROKERS PAID. >> I THINK WE’RE GOING TO SEE SOME MAJOR CHANGES MOVING FORWARD.

>> SHE SAYS HER METHODS ARE BACKED WITH RESEARCH ON SPEECH DEVELOPMENT AND EARLY CHILDHOOD EDUCATION. ON THIS SHOW, I MIGHT GO, CAN YOU SEE THE BASS? >> NO. WE TOUCHED OUR NOSE. WE TOUCH STAR NOTES. SO WITH THAT, I’M ENCOURAGING ONE IMITATION AND IMITATION IS THE BUILDING BLOCK OF SPEECH.

I’M ENCOURAGING POINTING, WHICH IS A MILESTONE AND BEING SILLY, WHICH IS ENGAGING.

IT’S FUNNY, I HAVE THIS SINGSONG TONE NATURALLY, BUT AROUND THE WORLD, STUDIES

WELL, YEAH, IT’S A LOT OF RESEARCH AND LIKE, DORKY RESEARCH. I DO. I READ RESEARCH PAPERS.

WHAT’S EXCITING IS WE SEE SO MANY PARENTS ON SOCIAL MEDIA WORKING ON THESE THINGS AWAY FROM THE SCREEN TWEETS ISSUES AND USING THE TECHNIQUES AND THE SONGS AND THE GAMES. AND THAT’S JUST SO WONDERFUL TO SEE BECAUSE WE DON’T WANT KIDS WATCHING TONS OF TV. >> THERE’S THIS WHOLE KIND

TRUMP JUNIOR IS THE FIRST OF HIS SIBLINGS TO TESTIFY IN THE CASE THAT COULD TEAR

THE FAMILY REAL ESTATE BUSINESS APART. ABC NEWS INVESTIGATIVE REPORTER OLIVIA RUBIN JOINS ME NOW WITH MORE ON THAT. >> OLIVIA, WHAT’S THE LATEST FROM COURT? >> WELL, COURT JUST GETTING UNDERWAY NOW AND THE STATE CONTINUING WITH KIND OF ANOTHER A NUMBER OF OTHER WITNESSES. THEY HAVE AN EXPERT WITNESS,

A FORMER EMPLOYEE ALSO WHO WORKED THE TRUMP ORGANIZATION. BUT AS YOU SAID, ALL EYES WAITING FOR. DONALD TRUMP JR. DONALD TRUMP’S SON TO COME LATER THIS AFTERNOON AND TAKE THE STAND HIMSELF AND WHAT HE IS GOING TO FACE QUESTIONS ON, DIANE, IS EXACTLY WHAT HE DID WHEN HE WAS OVERSEAS.

THE TRUST THAT OVERSAW DONALD TRUMP’S BUSINESS EMPIRE. HIS FATHER WAS PRESIDENT OF THE UNITED STATES AND HE WILL SURELY FACE QUESTIONS ON HIS OWN INVOLVEMENT IN THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS THAT THE ATTORNEY GENERAL SAYS WERE FRAUDULENT. AND ALSO, DIANE, REMEMBER, AS THE SON OF DONALD TRUMP AND SOMEONE THAT OVERSAW

THE BUSINESS, HE IS SOMEONE THAT IS ON THE INNERMOST CIRCLE OF THE FAMILY AND THE BUSINESS, AND HE WILL REALLY ABLE TO SPEAK TO WHAT WENT ON KIND OF ON THE INNER MOST AND WHAT WAS SAID ABOUT THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS AND THE WAY THEY WERE PREPARED IN A WAY, AGAIN, THAT THE

ATTORNEY GENERAL SAYS WAS FRAUDULENT. >> NOW, THE CRUX OF THIS CASE HAS ALREADY BEEN OLIVIA TRUMP HAS BEEN FOUND LIABLE FOR FRAUD. HIS BUSINESS CERTIFICATES CANCELED. BUT NOW THAT RULING HAS BEEN STAYED ON APPEAL. >> SO WHERE DOES THAT LEAVE TRUMP’S BUSINESSES NOW? WELL, IT LEAVES THEM SAFE FOR

THE TIME BEING, BECAUSE THE APPEALS COURT HAS SAID THAT THEY WILL NOT BE CANCELING THE BUSINESS CERTIFICATE AS OF NOW. SO IT SORT OF GIVES THEM A PAUSE, A SIGH OF RELIEF TO OF FIGURE OUT WHERE THIS GOES. BUT REMEMBER WHAT THE APPEALS COURT REFUSED TO DO WAS PAUSE THE TRIAL ALTOGETHER, WHICH

IS WHY WE’RE HERE TODAY AT ALL. THEY SAID THAT IT WOULD STILL GO FORWARD. A BIG FOR THE ATTORNEY GENERAL AS THIS COURT ULTIMATELY SEEKS TO DECIDE WHAT THE FINANCIAL PENALTY IS GOING TO BE FOR WHAT SAID. AS THE JUDGE ALREADY DETERMINING THAT DONALD TRUMP COMMITTED.

AND I WOULD ALSO ADD THAT THE COURT ALSO DETERMINED THAT THE KIDS COMMITTED FRAUD AS WELL. THAT’S DON JR. THAT’S ERIC. THAT’S IVANKA, BECAUSE REMEMBER, THEY WERE NAMED AS DEFENDANTS. WELL, IN THIS LAWSUIT, IT IS NOT JUST DONALD TRUMP WHO IS ON THE LINE HERE IT IS HIS CHILDREN.

IT WAS ONLY IVANKA TRUMP WHO LATER DISMISSED FROM THE SUIT BECAUSE THE COURT FOUND THAT IT WAS OUTSIDE OF THE STATUTE OF LIMITATIONS. SO REALLY, IT’S NOT JUST DONALD TRUMP AND HIS COMPANY WHO IS ON THE LINE HERE. IT IS HIS CHILDREN WHO ALSO HOLD EXECUTIVE ROLES IN THE COMPANY.

SO HIGH STAKES FOR THE ENTIRE NOT JUST DONALD TRUMP, DIANE. ALL RIGHT. >> INVESTIGATIVE REPORTER OLIVIA RUBIN.

CHILDREN AMONG THE VICTIMS BATHED IN DUST FROM THE DEADLY

ATTACK ON ONE OF THE MOST DENSELY POPULATED PARTS OF GAZA. A HUGE CRATER SPEAKS TO THE POWER OF THE STRIKE. AND A HOSPITAL NEARBY INUNDATED WITH PATIENTS. DOCTORS ALREADY OVERWHELMED NOW TENDING TO YET MORE CHILDREN WOUNDED IN A WAR THEY CAN’T ESCAPE. ISRAEL’S DEFENSE FORCES SAY THEY WERE TARGETING

AND SUCCESSFULLY KILLING A TOP HAMAS COMMANDER WHO PLAYED A MAJOR ROLE PLANNING THE OCTOBER 7TH ATTACK THAT KILLED 1400 PEOPLE IN ISRAEL. THE IDF SAYS THAT HAMAS HIDES BEHIND CIVILIANS, USING THEM AS HUMAN SHIELDS. I PRESSED AN IDF SPOKESMAN ON WHY ISRAEL WOULD TARGET A REFUGEE CAMP PACKED WITH CIVILIANS.

THAT BACKS US UP TO MAKE SURE THAT THEIR CITIZENS COME HOME SAFELY. WE HAVEN’T SLEPT FOR 24 DAYS. >> OUR CHIEF CORRESPONDENT, IAN PANNELL, THANK YOU. AND WITH THAT BORDER CROSSING OPEN, WE ARE CONTINUING TO MONITOR THE INFLUX OF PEOPLE EXPECTED TO FLEE FROM GAZA INTO EGYPT AS HUNDREDS OF FOREIGN

NATIONALS ARE STILL WAITING TO CROSS. OUR INES DE LA CUETARA IS TRACKING IT ALL FROM JERUSALEM FOR US. AND AS WHAT’S THE SCENE LIKE AT THE RAFAH BORDER CROSSING RIGHT NOW? >> HEY, DIANA. YES, SOME GOOD NEWS THERE. THE RAFAH CROSSING OPENING UP TO PEOPLE FOR THE FIRST TIME SINCE OCTOBER SEVENTH.

WE ARE STARTING TO SEE PEOPLE CROSS. WE’RE STARTING TO SEE AMBULANCES LEAVE GAZA AS WELL. AT LEAST 17 AMBULANCES, BY OUR COUNT, HAVE NOW GAZA AND CROSSED OVER INTO EGYPT. PRIORITY IS BEING GIVEN TO CRITICALLY INJURED. AND WE’VE SEEN AMBULANCES ON THE OTHER SIDE OF THE BORDER IN EGYPT WAITING FOR THE WOUNDED.

THERE HAVE BEEN HOSPITALS AS WELL SET UP IN EGYPT. WE KNOW THE PALESTINIAN RED CRESCENT IS SAYING THAT 81 CRITICALLY INJURED WILL BE TRANSFERRED. UNCLEAR IF THAT MANY HAVE ACTUALLY MADE IT INTO EGYPT. AND LIKE YOU SAY, FIVE AMERICANS HAVE NOW BEEN ALLOWED TO CROSS. FIVE NGO WORKERS.

THEY PART OF A LIST OF 500 FOREIGN NATIONALS THAT OFFICIALS SAID WOULD BE ALLOWED TO CROSS TODAY. AGAIN, UNCLEAR IF ALL THOSE 500 NATIONALS, FOREIGN NATIONALS HAVE BEEN ALLOWED TO CROSS, BUT WE DO HAVE CONFIRMATION THE AMERICANS HAVE BEEN ALLOWED TO LEAVE. NO WORD ON THE OTHER AMERICANS KNOW. ACCORDING TO THE STATE

DEPARTMENT, THERE ARE STILL 400 AMERICAN NATIONALS, STILL TRAPPED INSIDE GAZA TOGETHER WITH THEIR FAMILIES. THAT’S ABOUT 1000 INDIVIDUALS THAT THE STATE DEPARTMENT IS WORKING TO GET OUT OF GAZA. UNCLEAR WHAT THEIR STATUS IS HERE. AND WE KNOW THE STATE DEPARTMENT HAD TOLD AMERICAN CITIZENS TO MOVE CLOSE

TO THE RAFAH CROSSING TO BE ABLE TO LEAVE AT A MOMENT’S NOTICE SHOULD THE BORDER CROSSING OPEN UP AGAIN. SO WE’LL SEE WHAT HAPPENS THERE. AID BEING ALLOWED INTO GAZA AS WELL. WE DID SEE SOME AMBULANCES CROSSING INTO GAZA AND AID TRUCKS AS WELL. AT LEAST 28 TRUCKS HAVE BEEN ALLOWED TO CROSS.

AGAIN, THAT’S JUST A DROP IN THE OCEAN. IT USED TO BE HUNDREDS OF AID TRUCK TRUCKS CROSSING INTO RAFAH EVERY DAY JUST 20 TRUCKS ALLOWED TO CROSS IN TODAY CARRYING FOOD, WATER AND MEDICAL. AND ONE MORE NOTE ON THE CROSSING, DAN, SO REUTERS NOW REPORTING QATAR IS BROKERING A DEAL WITH ISRAEL.

HAMAS AND EGYPT WITH US COORDINATION TO POSSIBLY ALLOW FOR LIMITED. IT’S UNCLEAR, THOUGH, WHEN UNLIKELY THAT ANY TYPE OF MASS EVACUATIONS WOULD BE ALLOWED. IT’S UNLIKELY THAT WE’LL SEE MASS EVACUATIONS OF PALESTINIAN REFUGEES FROM GAZA INTO EGYPT, BUT IT WOULD CERTAINLY BE GOOD NEWS IF LIMITED EVACUATIONS WERE ALLOWED FOR.

AND AS MEANWHILE, THE IDF SAYS IT’S ARE SIGNIFICANTLY EXPANDING OPERATIONS ON THE GROUND IN NORTHERN GAZA . WHAT’S THE LATEST ON THAT? YES, SO THE IDF THIS MORNING THAT THEY ARE VERY, VERY MUCH CONTINUING THEIR GROUND OPERATION, EXPANDED OPERATION INTO GAZA, PUSHING DEEPER INTO GAZA, INTO NORTHERN. NOW, IT’S STILL UNCLEAR JUST

HOW FAR THEY’VE MADE IT INTO GAZA, WHETHER THEY’RE NEARING GAZA CITY, WHETHER IT’S JUST A COUPLE OF MILES INTO GAZA. BUT THEY ARE RELEASING SHOWING THEIR TROOPS ON THE GROUND AND TANKS ON THE GROUND, VEHICLES ON THE GROUND. THERE IS VIDEO RELEASED YESTERDAY SHOWING BULLDOZERS CLEARING THE WAY FOR VEHICLES FOR TROOPS.

>> SO THEY ARE VERY MUCH MOVING FULL STEAM AHEAD AHEAD HERE. THEY’RE TOUTING THE THE THE HAMAS MILITANTS THAT THEY ARE KILLING GOING AFTER TERRORIST KILLING. THEY SAY ONE TOP HAMAS COMMANDER YESTERDAY IN THAT MASSIVE STRIKE ON THE JABALYA REFUGEE CAMP, THE LARGEST REFUGEE CAMP IN GAZA. IDF, THOUGH, IS SUFFERING CASUALTIES.

SO YOU HEARD IT IN IAN’S PACKAGE AS OF THIS MORNING, THEY HAD 11 SOLDIERS KILLED AS OF JUST A FEW MOMENTS AGO. THAT NUMBER WENT UP. WE ARE NOW AT 15 ISRAELI SOLDIERS WHO HAVE BEEN KILLED IN. ACTION. SO THEY ARE STARTING TO SUFFER CASUALTIES AS WELL. AND THEY’RE CONTINUING

TO STRIKE GAZA FROM THE SKY. RELENTLESS AIRSTRIKES CONTINUING AS WELL. THE IDF SAYING THAT SINCE THE BEGINNING OF THE WAR, THEY HAVE STRUCK 11,000 TARGETS. 11,000. WOW. AND AS QATAR AND JERUSALEM. THANK YOU. >> AND THE IDF SAYS ALL OF ITS INTELLIGENCE AGENCIES ARE WORKING TO FREE THE ROUGHLY

240 HOSTAGES KIDNAPPED BY HAMAS ,OUR NEXT GUEST IS STILL HOPING TO BE REUNITED WITH FIVE FAMILY MEMBERS CAPTURED DURING THE OCTOBER 7TH ATTACKS. >> EROTEME ATIKA WAS ELDERLY AUNT, UNCLE, HER COUSIN AND HER COUSINS, TWO DAUGHTERS, AGED THREE AND FIVE, ARE STILL BELIEVED TO BE HELD BY THE TERRORISTS AND THEREFORE JOINS

US NOW FROM SOUTHERN ISRAEL WITH MORE. FIRST OFF, I JUST WANT TO SAY I’M SORRY. I CANNOT IMAGINE WHAT IT IS LIKE TO BE IN YOUR POSITION RIGHT NOW. SO THANK YOU FOR COMING ON TO SHARE YOUR STORY. WHEN WAS THE LAST YOU HEARD ANYTHING FROM OR ABOUT YOUR

MISSING FAMILY MEMBERS? THANK YOU FOR HAVING ME. INDEED. IT’S — IT’S HARD, BUT I FEEL IT’S MY MISSION. SO THANK YOU FOR LETTING ME FULFILL MY MISSION. >> I LAST SPOKE WITH MY ON SATURDAY MORNING, 718. I CALLED HER BECAUSE I EARLIER I TEXTED MY COUSIN EARLIER AND SHE SOMETHING IS VERY

WRONG. AND I WAS REALLY SCARED. I FELT IT IS VERY DIFFERENT THIS TIME. AND AS MY AUNT ISN’T THAT SAVVY WITH ALL THAT TECHNOLOGY. I CALLED HER AND SHE WHISPERED AND SHE TOLD ME SOMETHING IS VERY WRONG. I HEAR SHOUTING. I THINK THEY’RE HERE. AND I ASKED HER, WHERE ARE YOU?

WHERE ARE YOU? SHE SAID, I’M IN THE SAFE ROOM. AND I SAID, DON’T YOU WORRY, YOU’LL BE SAFE IN A SAFE ROOM. DON’T DON’T WORRY. AND I LOVE YOU. I LOVE YOU AND ALL. SHE SAID ALL SHE SAID WAS, I LOVE YOU. >> I LOVE YOU, I LOVE YOU.

AND I JUST CLOSED THE PHONE BECAUSE I WAS VERY WORRIED. AND THAT WAS THE LAST TIME. WE DON’T KNOW ANYTHING. >> WOW. AND I. YOU COME FROM A VERY SMALL KIBBUTZ NEAR THE GAZA BORDER, AND YOU SAY YOU PERSONALLY KNEW ALMOST EVERY RESIDENT WHO WAS.

HAVE YOU BEEN ABLE TO GET ANY NEW INFORMATION ABOUT? WHAT HAPPENED TO THEM? AND WHAT DOES YOUR COMMUNITY LOOK LIKE NOW? YEAH, IT IS IN MY FIRST COMMUNITY. I LIVE NOW IN A DIFFERENT COMMUNITY, BUT IT’S THE COMMUNITY THAT MY MY PARENTS WERE THE PIONEERS WHO WERE THE FIRST TO BE THERE.

>> AND I DO KNOW EVERYBODY TRYING TO DESCRIBE WHAT’S HAPPENING, THIS CATASTROPHE, THIS BRUTAL ATTACK ON THIS CIVILIAN, PEACEFUL, WONDERFUL PEOPLE IS TOO HARD TO EXPRESS IN ANY LANGUAGE, IN ARABIC, IN HEBREW, IN ENGLISH. IT’S HARD TO EXPRESS THE PAIN, THE PAIN, THE THE CIRCLE OF PRIDE AND LONGING AND FEAR

OF THE WHOLE COMMUNITY FROM THOSE WHO SURVIVED, FROM THOSE WHO ARE WORRIED FOR THEIR FAMILY MEMBERS IN LARGER CIRCLE OF THE COMMUNITY, AND THEN FRIENDS, OTHER FAMILY. WE ARE A CRYING NATION. I FEEL WE ARE UNDER IN AN ETHICAL. I FEEL I. WHO IS SUCH AN EDUCATOR WHO BELIEVES IN EDUCATION AND PEACE.

>> I, I HOPE IT’S TEMPORARY, BUT I LOST TRUST IN HUMANITY. THE TERROR ATTACKS OF AND KILLING AND BEHEADING AND CUTTING PARTS OF BODIES AND TAKING OUT I CAN’T EVEN EXPRESS THE HORRIFYING EXPERIENCES OF MURDER. IT’S JUST BEYOND A NORMAL HUMAN BEING CAPACITY TO OBSERVE THE KNOWLEDGE.

I STILL FEEL WE LIVE IN A NIGHTMARE AND I REALLY HOPE TO WAKE UP. >> I WANT EVERYBODY TO COME BACK. 80 PEOPLE FROM KIBBUTZ NIKLAUS ARE MISSING. HALF OF THE KIDS, 60 KIDS FROM NINE MONTHS TO 18 AND 15 ARE FROM KIBBUTZ NINE. CAN YOU BELIEVE THE WHOLE

COMMUNITY, A QUARTER OF A COMMUNITY IS BEING EMBRACED, A FRIEND. >> HOW DO YOU FEEL NOW THAT WE HAVE A SMALL NUMBER OF HOSTAGES RELEASED AND ONE RESCUED? >> IS THAT GIVING YOU HOPE? I NEVER LOST MY HOPE. I WILL NEVER LOSE MY HOPE. >> I NEVER DID.

>> WE ARE A PEOPLE WHO BELIEVE IN GOODNESS AND EVIL, SHALL NOT EVER TAKE OVER THE GOODNESS. I AM HOPEFUL. I AM HOPEFUL THAT THE RIGHT THING WILL BE DONE. AND I HAVE THIS SAND CLOCK WITH ME ALL THE TIME WHICH I PLAY WITH. AND I KNOW TIME IS RUNNING OUT

BECAUSE THEY ARE OUT THERE SICK AND ILL AND YOUNG AND OLD ,INNOCENT PEOPLE, AND WE HAVE NO TIME, TIME TO RESCUE MY FAMILY, MY COMMUNITY, OUR NATION COMMUNITY IS RUNNING OUT. AND PLEASE, PLEASE DO SHARE THOSE STORIES. WE NEED THEM BACK HOME. WELL, AND THAT’S WHY IT’S SO

IMPORTANT TO HAVE YOU COME ON AND TELL THEM. RIGHT. WE SO APPRECIATE YOUR TIME TODAY. THANK YOU. WISHING ALL OF FAMILY MEMBERS AND ALL THOSE THERE A SAFE RETURN HOME. THANK YOU. >> I REALLY DO WANT TO SAY ONE THING. LOOK AT ME, EVERYONE. I AM NOT A PERSON OF HATE.

I AM NOT A PERSON OF REVENGE. AND LIKE ME, ARE MY FAMILY. ARE MY COMMUNITY MEMBERS. PLEASE BRING THEM HOME. ALL RIGHT. THANK YOU. >> MEANWHILE, HERE AT HOME, A NEW FUNDING FIGHT IS BREWING IN WASHINGTON. THE BIDEN ADMINISTRATION IS ASKING CONGRESS FOR OF DOLLARS FOR ISRAEL, FOR

HUMANITARIAN AID, FOR PALESTINIAN JEWS AND FOR UKRAINE. NOW, THE NEW SPEAKER OF THE HOUSE, MIKE JOHNSON, IS DEMANDING MONEY BE TAKEN FROM THE IRS BUDGET. >> HE PUT THIS TO THE AMERICAN PEOPLE AND THEY WEIGH THE TWO NEEDS. I THINK THEY’RE GOING TO SAY STANDING WITH ISRAEL AND PROTECTING THE INNOCENT

OVER THERE IS IN OUR NATIONAL INTEREST AND IS A MORE IMMEDIATE NEED. >> AN IRS AGENTS. >> CRITICS SAY CUTTING THE IRS BUDGET COULD AFFECT SOME TAXPAYER SERVICES, HURT ENFORCEMENT ACTIONS AGAINST TAX CHEATERS. OUR SENIOR CONGRESSIONAL CORRESPOND AT RACHEL SCOTT HAS THE LATEST ON THAT. >> HI, RACHEL. HEY, DIANE.

WELL, THE BIDEN ADMINISTRATION HAS BEEN MAKING THE ROUNDS HERE ON CAPITOL HILL, PLEADING WITH CONGRESS FOR ADDITIONAL FUNDING FOR BOTH ISRAEL AND UKRAINE, INSISTING THAT THESE TWO WARS ARE INTERCONNECTED. BUT REPUBLICANS OVER IN THE HOUSE REMAIN UNCONVINCED. THE PRESIDENT IS ASKING CONGRESS FOR $14 BILLION IN AID TO ISRAEL, 61 BILLION IN AID

TO UKRAINE. >> THERE IS BIPARTISAN FOR THAT OVER IN THE SENATE. BUT IN THE HOUSE, THE NEW SPEAKER HAS PLANNING TO MOVE FORWARD WITH HIS OWN PROPOSAL, EXPECTED TO PUT A BILL ON THE FLOOR TOMORROW THAT WOULD ONLY INCLUDE FUNDING FOR ISRAEL. AND IT ALSO INCLUDES KEY DEMAND

FROM JOHNSON THAT ANY OF THE MONEY SPENT ON ISRAEL WOULD HAVE TO BE CUT FROM THE BUDGET OF THE IRS. JOHNSON LIKE A GROWING NUMBER OF REPUBLICANS OVER IN THE HOUSE, ARE SKEPTICAL. THEY HAVE DEEP RESERVATIONS ABOUT MORE FUNDING FOR UKRAINE. SAYING INCLUDING IT IN THEIR BILL IS A NONSTARTER.

BUT THIS HAS NOW SET THE STAGE FOR A MASSIVE FIGHT. THIS MORNING, THE WHITE HOUSE SAYS THE PRESIDENT WOULD VETO THAT REPUBLICAN PROPOSAL FROM THE HOUSE. JUST SAYING FLAT OUT THAT IT’S BAD FOR NATIONAL SECURITY. THE MIDDLE EAST, ISRAEL, DIANE. >> ALL RIGHT. SENIOR CONGRESSIONAL CORRESPONDENT RACHEL SCOTT ON CAPITOL HILL.

NOW CROSSED INTO GAZA OR CROSSED INTO EGYPT FROM GAZA. WHO ELSE IS EXPECTED TO GET OUT ? THE RAFAH BORDER CROSSING FINALLY OPENS. THE EARLY WINTER BLAST. NEARLY 90 MILLION AMERICANS FROM TEXAS TO NEW YORK ARE UNDER FREEZE ALERT. HOW LONG? THE COLD TEMPS COULD STICK AROUND? PLUS, THE MISSISSIPPI MIRACLE

PROGRAM CHANGING READING NATIONWIDE AS TEACHERS WARN ABOUT A LITERACY CRISIS. BUT WE BEGIN WITH DONALD TRUMP JUNIOR SET TO TAKE THE WITNESS STAND IN THE TRUMP ORGANIZATION CIVIL FRAUD TRIAL TODAY. TRUMP JUNIOR IS THE FIRST OF HIS SIBLINGS TO TESTIFY IN THE CASE THAT COULD TEAR THE FAMILY REAL ESTATE BUSINESS APART.

ABC NEWS INVESTIGATIVE REPORTER OLIVIA RUBIN JOINS NOW WITH MORE ON THAT. OLIVIA, WHAT’S THE LATEST FROM COURT? WELL, COURT JUST GETTING UNDERWAY NOW, DIANE AND THE STATE CONTINUING WITH KIND OF ANOTHER A NUMBER OF OTHER WITNESSES. THEY HAVE AN EXPERT WITNESS, A FORMER EMPLOYEE ALSO WHO WORKED AT THE TRUMP ORGANIZATION.

BUT AS YOU SAID, ALL EYES WAITING FOR DONALD TRUMP JR, DONALD TRUMP’S SON TO COME LATER THIS AFTERNOON AND TAKE THE STAND HIMSELF AND WHAT HE IS GOING TO FACE QUESTIONS ON DIANE IS EXACTLY WHAT HE DID WHEN. HE WAS OVERSEEING THE TRUST THAT OVERSAW DONALD TRUMP’S BUSINESS EMPIRE WHEN HIS FATHER

WAS PRESIDENT OF THE UNITED STATES. AND HE WILL SURELY, DIANE, FACE QUESTIONS ON HIS OWN INVOLVEMENT IN THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS THAT THE ATTORNEY GENERAL SAYS WERE FRAUDULENT. AND ALSO, DIANE, REMEMBER, AS THE SON OF DONALD TRUMP AND SOMEONE THAT OVERSAW THE BUSINESS, HE IS SOMEONE THAT IS ON THE INNERMOST CIRCLE

OF THE FAMILY AND THE AND HE WILL BE REALLY ABLE TO SPEAK TO WHAT WENT ON KIND OF ON THE INNERMOST STEPS AND WHAT WAS SAID ABOUT THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS AND THE WAY THEY WERE PREPARED. IN A WAY, AGAIN, THAT THE ATTORNEY GENERAL SAYS WAS FRAUDULENT. NOW THE, CRUX OF THIS CASE HAS

ALREADY BEEN DECIDED. >> OLIVIA HAS BEEN FOUND LIABLE FOR FRAUD. HIS BUSINESS CERTIFICATES CANCELED, BUT NOW THAT RULING HAS BEEN STAYED ON APPEAL. SO WHERE DOES THAT LEAVE TRUMP’S NOW? WELL, IT LEAVES THEM SAFE FOR THE TIME BEING, BECAUSE THE APPEALS COURT HAS SAID THAT THEY WILL NOT BE CANCELING

THE BUSINESS AS OF NOW. SO IT SORT OF GIVES THEM A PAUSE, A SIGH OF RELIEF TO SORT OF FIGURE OUT WHERE THIS GOES. BUT REMEMBER WHAT THE APPEALS COURT REFUSED TO DO WAS PAUSE THE TRIAL ALTOGETHER, WHICH IS WHY WE’RE HERE TODAY AT ALL. THEY SAID THAT IT WOULD STILL

GO FORWARD. BIG WIN FOR THE ATTORNEY GENERAL AS THIS COURT ULTIMATELY SEEKS TO DECIDE WHAT THE FINANCIAL PENALTY IS GOING TO BE. WHAT YOU SAID AS THE JUDGE ALREADY DETERMINING THAT DONALD COMMITTED FRAUD. AND I WOULD ALSO ADD THAT THE COURT ALSO DETERMINED THAT THE KIDS COMMITTED FRAUD AS WELL.

THAT’S DON JR. THAT’S ERIC, THAT’S IVANKA, BECAUSE REMEMBER, THEY WERE NAMED DEFENDANTS AS WELL IN THIS LAWSUIT. IT IS NOT JUST DONALD TRUMP IS ON THE LINE HERE. IT IS HIS CHILDREN AND IT WAS ONLY IVANKA WHO WAS LATER DISMISSED FROM THE SUIT BECAUSE THE COURT FOUND THAT WAS OUTSIDE OF THE STATUTE

OF LIMITATIONS. SO REALLY, IT’S NOT JUST DONALD AND HIS COMPANY WHO IS ON THE LINE HERE. IT IS HIS CHILDREN WHO ALSO HOLD EXECUTIVE ROLES IN THE COMPANY SO HIGH FOR THE ENTIRE FAMILY, NOT JUST DONALD TRUMP. DIANE. ALL RIGHT. INVESTIGATIVE REPORTER OLIVIA RUBIN. OLIVIA, THANK YOU. >> MEANWHILE, ABC NEWS HAS

LEARNED PEOPLE ARE FINALLY STARTING TO PASS THROUGH THE RAFAH CROSSING OUTSIDE OF GAZA. FIVE AMERICAN NGO WORKERS HAVE CROSSED THAT BORDER FROM GAZA AND NOW INTO EGYPT, ACCORDING TO THE PALESTINIAN CHILDREN’S RELIEF FUND. 17 AMBULANCES, EACH CARRYING ONE INJURED GAZAN, HAVE ALSO CROSSED THE BORDER. EGYPT, ALONG WITH 110 DUAL NATIONALS.

AND THIS COMES AS ISRAELI FORCES SAY THEY’VE KILLED A TOP HAMAS COMMANDER WITH AN AIRSTRIKE IN GAZA’S LARGEST REFUGEE CAMP. CHIEF FOREIGN CORRESPONDENT AND STARTS US OFF FROM STEVE ISRAEL. >> HUNDREDS OF FOREIGN NATIONALS, INCLUDING AT LEAST FIVE AMERICANS TRAPPED IN GAZA SINCE THE WAR BEGAN, HAVE FINALLY BEEN ALLOWED TO CROSS

HEALTH MINISTRY. SURVIVORS DESPERATELY SCOURING THROUGH THE DEBRIS IN JABALIA, LOOKING PEOPLE BURIED IN THE RUBBLE. CHILDREN AMONG THE VICTIMS BATHED IN DUST FROM THE DEADLY ATTACK ON ONE OF THE MOST DENSELY POPULATED PARTS OF GAZA. A HUGE CRATER SPEAKS TO THE POWER OF THE STRIKE. AND A HOSPITAL NEARBY INUNDATED

WITH PATIENTS. DOCTORS ALREADY OVERWHELMED, NOW TENDING TO YET MORE CHILDREN WOUNDED IN A WAR CAN’T ESCAPE. ISRAEL’S DEFENSE FORCES SAY THEY WERE TARGETING AND SUCCESSFULLY KILLING A TOP HAMAS COMMANDER WHO PLAYED A MAJOR ROLE IN PLANNING THE OCTOBER 7TH ATTACK THAT KILLED 1400 PEOPLE IN ISRAEL. THE SAYS THAT HAMAS HIDES

BEHIND CIVILIANS, USING THEM AS HUMAN SHIELDS. I PRESSED AN IDF SPOKESMAN ON WHY ISRAEL WOULD TARGET A REFUGEE CAMP PACKED WITH CIVILIANS. >> WE UNDERSTAND THAT THERE SECONDARY EXPLOSIONS AND THAT SUBTERRANEAN INFRASTRUCTURE ALSO EXPLODED OR IMPLODED AS A RESULT OF SOME KIND OF SECONDARY EXPLOSION. AND THAT THERE ARE QUITE A LOT

OF CASUALTIES IN THE AREA. PRESUMABLY A SURGE IN CIVILIAN CASUALTIES AT THIS STAGE. I CAN’T CONFIRM THAT THEY. I CAN, I ASSESS THAT IS THE CASE. >> THE DEATH TOLL IN GAZA NOW OVER EIGHT AND A HALF THOUSAND, ACCORDING TO THE PALESTINIAN HEALTH MINISTRY. ISRAELI FORCES MOVING DEEPER INTO GAZA, RELEASING FOOTAGE

SHOWING ITS TROOPS ON THE GROUND AND ABC NEWS ANALYSIS SHOWING THE AREAS WHERE ISRAELI FORCES NOW OPERATING IN GAZA FACE TO FACE BATTLES WITH HAMAS FIGHTERS IN GAZA. AND TODAY ANNOUNCING 11 SOLDIERS HAVE NOW BEEN KILLED IN ACTION. >> HAMAS RELEASING THIS FOOTAGE ,APPEARING TO SHOW FIGHTERS EMERGING FROM UNDERGROUND

TUNNELS, FIRING ON WHAT THEY SAY ARE ISRAELI TARGETS ALONG THE BORDER. ON SUNDAY. >> THE SITUATION FOR GAZANS NOW DESPERATE. SECRETARY OF STATE ANTONY BLINKEN SAYING THE ADMINISTRATION’S TRYING TO GET OUT HUNDREDS OF AMERICAN PASSPORT HOLDERS. AMONG THEM, LENABASUM FROM UTAH. SHE’S CALLING ON PRESIDENT BIDEN FOR HELP WHILE STUCK HERE

IN GAZA, FEELING ABANDONED AND, MISTREATED BY HER OWN COUNTRY BECAUSE. OUR COUNTRY IS SUPPOSED TO BE THE ONE THAT BACKS UP TO MAKE SURE THAT THERE CITIZENS COME HOME SAFELY. WE HAVEN’T SLEPT FOR 24 DAYS. OUR CHIEF FOREIGN CORRESPONDENT IAN PANNELL, THANK YOU. AND WITH THAT BORDER CROSSING

BACK OPEN, WE ARE CONTINUING TO MONITOR THE INFLUX OF EXPECTED TO FLEE FROM GAZA INTO EGYPT AS HUNDREDS FOREIGN NATIONALS ARE STILL WAITING TO CROSS. OUR INES DE LA CUETARA IS TRACKING ALL FROM JERUSALEM FOR US. AND IS WHAT’S THE SCENE LIKE AT THE RAFAH BORDER CROSSING RIGHT NOW? >> HEY, DIANA.

SO SOME GOOD NEWS THERE. THE RAFAH BORDER CROSSING OPENING UP TO PEOPLE FOR THE FIRST TIME SINCE OCTOBER 7TH. WE ARE STARTING TO SEE PEOPLE CROSS. WE’RE STARTING TO SEE AMBULANCES LEAVE GAZA AS WELL. AT LEAST 17 AMBULANCES, BY OUR COUNT, HAVE NOW LEFT GAZA AND OVER INTO EGYPT.

PRIORITY IS BEING GIVEN TO THE CRITICALLY INJURED. WE’VE SEEN AMBULANCES ON THE OTHER SIDE OF THE BORDER IN EGYPT WAITING FOR THE WOUNDED. THERE HAVE BEEN FIELD HOSPITALS AS WELL, SET UP IN EGYPT. WE KNOW THE PALESTINIAN RED CRESCENT IS SAYING THAT 81 CRITICALLY INJURED WILL BE TRANSFERRED.

UNCLEAR IF THAT MANY HAVE ACTUALLY MADE IT INTO EGYPT. AND LIKE YOU SAY, FIVE AMERICANS HAVE NOW BEEN ALLOWED TO CROSS. FIVE NGO WORKERS. THEY WERE PART OF A LIST OF 500 FOREIGN NATIONALS THAT OFFICIALS HAD SAID WOULD BE ALLOWED TO CROSS TODAY. AGAIN, UNCLEAR IF ALL OF THOSE 500 NATIONALS, FOREIGN

NATIONALS, HAVE BEEN ALLOWED TO CROSS, BUT WE DO HAVE CONFIRMATION THAT THE AMERICANS THAT HAVE BEEN ALLOWED TO LEAVE, NO WORD ON THE OTHER AMERICANS. WE KNOW, ACCORDING TO THE STATE DEPARTMENT, THERE ARE STILL 400 AMERICAN NATIONALS STILL TRAPPED INSIDE GAZA WITH THEIR FAMILIES. THAT’S ABOUT A THOUSAND INDIVIDUALS THAT THE STATE

DEPARTMENT IS WORKING TO GET OUT OF GAZA. UNCLEAR WHAT THEIR STATUS IS HERE. AND WE KNOW THE DEPARTMENT HAD TOLD AMERICAN CITIZENS TO MOVE CLOSE TO THE RAFAH CROSSING TO BE ABLE TO LEAVE AT A MOMENT’S NOTICE SHOULD THE BORDER CROSSING OPEN UP AGAIN. SO WE’LL SEE WHAT HAPPENS THERE.

AID BEING ALLOWED INTO GAZA AS WELL. WE DID SEE SOME AMBULANCES CROSSING INTO GAZA AND AID TRUCKS AS WELL. AT LEAST 28 TRUCKS HAVE BEEN ALLOWED TO CROSS. AGAIN, THAT’S JUST A IN THE OCEAN. IT USED TO BE HUNDREDS OF TRUCKS CROSSING INTO RAFAH EVERY DAY. JUST 20 TRUCKS ALLOWED TO CROSS

IN TODAY CARRYING FOOD, WATER AND MEDICAL SUPPLIES. AND ONE MORE NOTE ON THE CROSSING, DIANE. SO REUTERS NOW REPORTING THAT QATAR IS BROKERING A DEAL WITH ISRAEL HAMAS AND EGYPT WITH U.S. COORDINATION TO POSSIBLY ALLOW FOR LIMITED EVACUATIONS. IT’S UNCLEAR, THOUGH, WHEN UNLIKELY THAT ANY TYPE OF MASS EVACUATIONS WOULD BE ALLOWED,

UNLIKELY THAT WE’LL SEE MASS EVACUATIONS OF PALESTINIAN REFUGEES FROM GAZA INTO EGYPT. BUT IT WOULD CERTAINLY BE GOOD NEWS IF LIMITED EVACUATIONS WERE ALLOWED FOR. AND AS MEANWHILE, THE IDF SAYS ITS FORCES ARE SIGNIFICANTLY EXPANDING OPERATIONS ON THE GROUND IN NORTHERN GAZA. WHAT’S THE LATEST ON THAT?

>> YES, SO THE IDF SAYING THIS MORNING THAT THEY ARE VERY, VERY MUCH CONTINUING THEIR GROUND OPERATION, EXPANDED GROUND OPERATION INTO PUSHING DEEPER INTO GAZA, INTO NORTHERN GAZA. NOW, IT’S STILL JUST HOW FAR THEY’VE MADE IT INTO GAZA, WHETHER THEY’RE NEARING GAZA CITY, WHETHER IT’S JUST A COUPLE OF MILES INTO GAZA.

BUT THEY ARE RELEASING VIDEO SHOWING THEIR TROOPS ON THE GROUND AND TANKS ON THE GROUND, VEHICLES ON THE GROUND. THERE IS VIDEO RELEASED SHOWING BULLDOZERS CLEARING THE WAY FOR OTHER VEHICLES FOR TROOPS. SO THEY ARE VERY ■MUCH MOVING FULL STEAM AHEAD AHEAD HERE. THEY’RE TOUTING THE THE HAMAS MILITANTS THAT THEY ARE KILLING

GOING AFTER TERRORIST KILLING. THEY SAY ONE TOP HAMAS COMMANDER YESTERDAY, THAT MASSIVE STRIKE ON THE JABALYA REFUGEE CAMP, THE LARGEST CAMP IN GAZA. THE IDF, THOUGH, IS SUFFERING CASUALTIES. SO YOU HEARD IT IN IAN’S PACKAGE AS OF THIS MORNING, THEY HAD 11 SOLDIERS KILLED AS OF JUST A FEW MOMENTS AGO,

THAT NUMBER WENT UP. WE ARE NOW 15 ISRAELI SOLDIERS WHO HAVE BEEN KILLED IN ACTION. SO THEY ARE STARTING TO SUFFER CASUALTIES AS WELL. AND THEY’RE CONTINUING TO STRIKE GAZA FROM THE SKY. RELENTLESS AIRSTRIKES CONTINUING AS WELL. THE IDF SAYING THAT SINCE BEGINNING OF THE WAR, THEY HAVE STRUCK 11,000 TARGETS.

DAY IN 11,000 WHILE IN QATAR AND JERUSALEM. THANK YOU. AND THE IDF SAYS ALL OF ITS INTELLIGENCE AGENCIES ARE WORKING TO FREE THE ROUGHLY 240 HOSTAGES KIDNAPPED BY HAMAS . OUR NEXT GUEST IS STILL HOPING TO BE REUNITED WITH FIVE FAMILY MEMBERS CAPTURED DURING THE OCTOBER 7TH ATTACKS. IRAQ MASSACRE WAS ELDERLY AUNT

AND HER COUSIN AND HER COUSINS, TWO DAUGHTERS, AGE THREE AND FIVE, ARE STILL BELIEVED TO BE HELD BY THE TERRORISTS. AND OUTFRONT JOINS US NOW FROM SOUTHERN ISRAEL WITH MORE. FIRST OFF, I JUST WANT TO SAY I’M SORRY. I CANNOT IMAGINE WHAT IT IS LIKE TO BE IN YOUR POSITION RIGHT NOW.

I CALLED HER AND, SHE WHISPERED AND SHE TOLD ME SOMETHING IS VERY WRONG. I CAN HEAR SHOUTING. I THINK THEY’RE HERE. AND I ASKED HER, WHERE ARE YOU? WHERE ARE YOU? SHE SAID, I’M IN THE SAFE ROOM. AND I SAID, DON’T YOU WORRY, YOU’LL BE SAFE. THE SAFE FROM DON’T WORRY.

A VERY SMALL KIBBUTZ NEAR THE GAZA BORDER. AND YOU SAID YOU PERSONALLY KNEW ALMOST EVERY RESIDENT WHO WAS ABDUCTED. HAVE YOU BEEN ABLE TO GET ANY NEW INFORMATION ABOUT WHAT HAPPENED TO THEM? AND WHAT IS YOUR COMMUNITY LOOK LIKE NOW? YEAH, IT IS IN MY COMMUNITY. I LIVE NOW IN DIFFERENT

COMMUNITY, BUT IT’S THE COMMUNITY THAT MY MY PARENTS WERE THE PIONEER WHO WERE THE FIRST TO BE THERE. AND I DO KNOW EVERYBODY TRYING TO DESCRIBE WHAT’S HAPPENING, THIS CATASTROPHE, THIS BRUTAL ATTACK ON THIS CIVILIAN, PEACEFUL, WONDERFUL PEOPLE IS TOO HARD TO EXPRESS IN ANY LANGUAGE, IN ARABIC IN HEBREW,

IN ENGLISH, IT’S HARD TO EXPRESS THE PAIN, THE PAIN, THE THE CIRCLE OF CRY AND LONG PAIN AND FEAR OF THE WHOLE FROM THOSE WHO SURVIVED, FROM THOSE ARE WORRIED FOR THEIR FAMILY MEMBERS IN LARGER CIRCLE OF THE COMMUNITY AND THEN FRIENDS AND OTHER FAMILY. WE ARE A CRYING NATION.

I FEEL WE ARE NOW IN AN ETHICAL . I FEEL I WHO IS SUCH AN EDUCATOR, WHO BELIEVES IN EDUCATION AND PEACE. >> I LOST. I HOPE IT’S TEMPORARILY, BUT I LOST MY TRUST, HUMANITY, THE TERROR ATTACKS OF AND KILLING AND BEHEADING AND CUTTING PARTS OF IT IS AND

TAKING OUT. I CAN’T EXPRESS THE HORRIFYING EXPERIENCE. THIS IS AT DOOR. IT’S JUST BEYOND A NORMAL HUMAN BEING CAPACITY TO OBSERVE THE KNOWLEDGE. I STILL FEEL WE LIVE IN A NIGHTMARE, AND I REALLY HOPE TO WAKE UP. I WANT EVERYBODY TO COME BACK. 80 PEOPLE FROM KIBBUTZ US ARE

MISSING HALF OF THE KIDS THERE, 60 KIDS FROM NINE MONTHS TO 18 AND 15 ARE FROM KIBBUTZ NINE. CAN YOU THE WHOLE COMMUNITY, A QUARTER OF A COMMUNITY IS BEING EMBRACED, A FRIEND. >> HOW DO YOU FEEL NOW THAT WE HAVE SEEN A SMALL NUMBER OF HOSTAGES RELEASED AND ONE RESCUED?

>> IS THAT GIVING YOU HOPE? I NEVER LOST MY HOPE. >> I WILL NEVER LOSE MY HOPE. I NEVER DID. WE ARE A PEOPLE WHO BELIEVE IN GOODNESS AND EVIL, SHALL NOT EVER TAKE OVER THE. >> I AM HOPEFUL. I AM HOPEFUL THAT THE RIGHT THING WILL BE DONE.

>> AND I HAVE THIS SAND CLOCK WITH ME ALL THE TIME WHICH I PLAY WITH. AND I KNOW TIME IS RUNNING OUT BECAUSE THEY ARE OUT THERE SICK AND ILL AND YOUNG AND OLD AND INNOCENT PEOPLE AND WE HAVE NO TIME, TIME TO RESCUE MY FAMILY, MY COMMUNITY,

OUR NATION COMMUNITY IS RUNNING . AND PLEASE, PLEASE DO SHARE THOSE STORIES. WE NEED THEM BACK HOME. WELL, AND THAT’S WHY IT’S SO IMPORTANT TO HAVE YOU COME ON AND TELL THEM. WE SO APPRECIATE YOUR TIME TODAY. THANK YOU. WISHING ALL OF YOUR FAMILY MEMBERS AND ALL THOSE THERE

MEANWHILE, HERE AT HOME, A NEW FUNDING FIGHT BREWING IN WASHINGTON. THE BIDEN ADMINISTRATION IS ASKING CONGRESS FOR BILLIONS DOLLARS FOR ISRAEL, FOR HUMANITARIAN AID FOR PALESTINIANS, FOR UKRAINE. NOW, THE NEW SPEAKER OF THE HOUSE, MIKE JOHNSON, IS DEMANDING THAT MONEY BE TAKEN FROM THE IRS BUDGET FOR THE AMERICAN PEOPLE AND

THEY WEIGH THE TWO NEEDS. I THINK THEY’RE GOING TO SAY STANDING WITH ISRAEL AND PROTECTING THE INNOCENT OVER THERE IS IN OUR NATIONAL INTEREST AND IS A MORE IMMEDIATE NEED. >> AN IRS AGENTS. >> CRITICS SAY CUTTING THE IRS BUDGET COULD AFFECT SOME TAXPAYER SERVICES AND HURT ENFORCEMENT ACTIONS AGAINST TAX CHEATERS.

OUR SENIOR CONGRESSIONAL RACHEL SCOTT HAS THE LATEST ON THAT. HI, RACHEL. HEY, DIANE. WELL, THE BIDEN ADMINISTRATION HAS BEEN MAKING THE ROUNDS HERE ON CAPITOL HILL, PLEADING WITH CONGRESS FOR ADDITIONAL FUNDING FOR BOTH ISRAEL AND UKRAINE, INSISTING THAT THESE TWO WARS ARE INTERCONNECTED. BUT REPUBLICANS OVER IN THE HOUSE REMAIN UNCONVINCED.

THE PRESIDENT IS ASKING CONGRESS FOR $14 BILLION IN AID TO ISRAEL, 61 BILLION IN AID TO UKRAINE. >> THERE IS BIPARTISAN SUPPORT THAT OVER IN THE SENATE. BUT IN THE HOUSE, THE NEW SPEAKER IS PLANNING MOVE FORWARD WITH HIS OWN PROPOSAL, EXPECTED TO PUT A BILL ON THE FLOOR TOMORROW

THAT WOULD ONLY INCLUDE FUNDING FOR ISRAEL. AND IT ALSO INCLUDES A KEY DEMAND FROM JOHNSON THAT ANY OF THE MONEY SPENT ON ISRAEL WOULD THEN HAVE TO BE CUT FROM THE BUDGET OF THE IRS. JOHNSON LIKE A GROWING NUMBER OF REPUBLICANS OVER IN THE HOUSE, ARE SKEPTICAL. THEY HAVE DEEP RESERVATIONS ABOUT.

MORE FUNDING FOR UKRAINE SAYING INCLUDING IT IN THEIR BILL IS A NONSTARTER. BUT THIS HAS NOW SET THE STAGE FOR A MASSIVE FIGHT. THIS MORNING, THE WHITE SAYS THE PRESIDENT WOULD VETO THAT REPUBLICAN PROPOSAL FROM THE HOUSE. JUST SAYING FLAT OUT THAT IT’S BAD FOR NATIONAL SECURITY.

THE MIDDLE AND ISRAEL DIANE. >> ALL RIGHT. SENIOR CONGRESSIONAL CORRESPONDENT RACHEL SCOTT ON CAPITOL HILL. >> THANKS, RACHEL. COMING UP, WILL INTEREST GO UP AGAIN? THE FED IS SET TO ANNOUNCE ITS DECISION TODAY. HOW IT COULD IMPACT YOUR WALLET. ALSO AHEAD, INFLATION AND THE WHICH THANKSGIVING DINNER ITEM

COULD GOBBLE UP YOUR BUDGET? AND WHEN YOU SHOULD BUY YOUR TURKEY. WE’LL BE RIGHT BACK. >> THIS IS ABC NEWS LIVE. THE CRUSH OF FAMILIES HERE IN POLAND AT REFUGEE CENTERS IN PUTIN’S RUSSIA ON THE GROUND IN UKRAINE, CLOSE TO THE FRONT LINE FROM THE CAPITAL DESTRUCTIVE FORCE.

>> I FIND BOSTON IS IN THE BULL’S EYE OF ABC LIVE. AMERICA’S NUMBER ONE STREAMING NEWS ANY ANYWHERE. STREAMING 24/7 STRAIGHT OUT TO YOU FOR FREE. THANK YOU FOR MAKING ABC NEWS LIVE NUMBER ONE. >> STREAMING NEWS. WELCOME BACK. THE FEDERAL RESERVE IS SET TO ANNOUNCE WHETHER IT PLANS

TO RAISE INTEREST RATES. >> IT’S A CRITICAL DECISION THAT COULD HAVE A BIG IMPACT ON YOUR MONEY. ABC NEWS BUSINESS REPORTER ALEXIS CHRISTOFOROUS HAS MORE ON THAT AND YOUR OTHER BUSINESS HEADLINES. >> ALEXIS, WHAT ARE YOU WATCHING TODAY? OH, A WHOLE BUNCH OF STUFF, INCLUDING THE FEDERAL RESERVE.

SO THE FED IS EXPECTED TO KEEP INTEREST RATES ON HOLD AT THE OF ITS MEETING TODAY. IT’S ALREADY HIKED RATES 11 TIMES IN THE PAST YEAR AND A HALF, MAKING IT A WHOLE LOT MORE EXPENSIVE TO BORROW MONEY. DURING THAT TIME, MORTGAGE RATES HAVE MORE THAN DOUBLED

TO A 23 YEAR HIGH OF AROUND 8%. AND THE AVERAGE CREDIT CARD INTEREST RATE NOW AT A RECORD HIGH OF NEARLY 21%. THE FED’S GOAL IS TO SLOW DOWN SPENDING TO TAME INFLATION, AND THERE ARE SIGNS IT’S WORKING. AS OVERALL PRICES COOL OFF. INVESTORS WILL BE LISTENING CLUES ABOUT THE FUTURE

DIRECTION OF INTEREST RATES. WHEN FED CHAIR JEROME POWELL QUESTIONS FROM REPORTERS THIS AFTERNOON. OF COURSE, THE PERK OF THESE HIGHER INTEREST RATES IS THAT IT CAN PAY TO PUT MORE MONEY IN THE SAVINGS BANK. SOME HIGH YIELD SAVINGS ACCOUNTS NOW RETURNS OF ABOUT 5%. WE WORK IS PLANNING TO FILE FOR

BANKRUPTCY AS EARLY AS NEXT WEEK. THAT’S ACCORDING THE WALL STREET JOURNAL. >> ONCE A DARLING OF THE VENTURE CAPITAL WORLD WOULD BE A STUNNING REVERSAL FOR THE SHARED OFFICE SPACE COMPANY ,WHICH WAS ONCE VALUED AT A STAGGERING $47 BILLION. PART OF THE PROBLEM, MUCH OF WEWORK’S OFFICE SPACE SITS,

EMPTY POST-PANDEMIC, AND THE COMPANY IS SADDLED WITH DEBT. OF REWORK ARE DOWN 96% SO FAR THIS YEAR. MCDONALD’S AND CHIPOTLE SAY THEY’LL RAISE MENU PRICES IN CALIFORNIA TO PAY FOR THE STATE’S HIKE IN THE MINIMUM WAGE BEGINNING IN APRIL. FAST FOOD WORKERS IN WILL BE PAID A MINIMUM OF $20 AN HOUR.

THAT’S THE HIGHEST IN THE NATION. MCDONALD’S AND CHIPOTLE DIDN’T SAY HOW MUCH PRICES WILL GO UP . BOTH CHAINS HAVE ALREADY BEEN HIKING MENU PRICES NATIONWIDE. AMID PERSISTENTLY HIGH INFLATION, SEEMS WE ARE PAYING MORE FOR JUST EVERYTHING. >> DOESN’T LOOK THAT WAY. ALEXIS CHRISTOFOROUS. THANK YOU. AND A NEW REPORT COULD HELP

YOU PLAN YOUR THANKSGIVING DAY FEAST. WELLS FARGO IS BREAKING DOWN WHICH THANKSGIVING STAPLES COULD COST YOU MORE, WHICH COST YOU LESS, AND WHEN TO BUY YOUR TURKEY. TREVOR AULT HAS THE DETAILS. >> WE’VE GOT ANOTHER HOLIDAY TO WORRY ABOUT. IT SEEMS THANKSGIVING DAY IS UPON US. >> I EVEN FINISHED EATING.

>> WELL, MY HALLOWEEN CANDY. IT’S THAT TIME OF YEAR, THANKSGIVING RIGHT AROUND THE CORNER. AND WE HAVE NEW DETAILS ON WHAT EVERYONE’S FAVORITE TURKEY DINNER MIGHT COST. THINGS ARE GOING TO BE A LITTLE BIT MORE EXPENSIVE THIS YEAR THAN LAST YEAR. TURKEY IS KIND OF THE EXCEPTION TO THE RULE THIS YEAR.

THAT IS ACTUALLY CHEAPER THAN A YEAR AGO. FARGO REPORTS WHILE INFLATION HAS STARTED TO SLOW DOWN, THIS YEAR’S DINNER WILL NOT BE ANY MORE AFFORDABLE. SOME PRODUCTS HAVE RISING. PRICE TAGS HAVE HIT AN ALL TIME HIGH, A PRICE OF $4.56 A POUND IN SEPTEMBER. IT’S UP PERCENT FROM LAST YEAR.

AND CAN CRANBERRIES ARE UP 60%. ALTHOUGH THE CENTERPIECE BIRD TURKEY, A DOLLAR 47 A POUND IS DOWN 9% FROM LAST YEAR. >> A LOT OF TIMES THE CANNED PRICES REPRESENT WHAT HAPPENED A YEAR AGO BECAUSE IT TAKES A LONG TIME TO PREPARE THEM AND PUT THEM INTO THE INTO THE SUPERMARKETS.

SO LAST YEAR THERE WAS LABOR. THERE WAS A PACKAGING DISRUPTION. SO CRANBERRY PRICES IN IT CAN REPRESENT WHAT WAS HAPPENING YEARS AGO. >> EXPERTS SAY GROCERY STORES ARE MARKING UP THE PRODUCTS FROM WHOLESALE PRICES HIGHER THAN THEY EVER HAVE BEFORE. >> BUT THERE ARE SOME WAYS

TO GET THE MOST OUT OF YOUR FEAST. WATCH OUT FOR FALLING TURKEY PRICES CLOSER TO THANKSGIVING BY, FRESH FRUITS AND VEGGIES AND OPT FOR WINE OVER BEER. THIS THANKSGIVING SUPPLY CHAIN IS DOING VERY WELL. THE STORES HAVE GOOD PRODUCT AVAILABILITY. KEEP YOUR EYES OPEN FOR FEATURES PROMOTIONS BECAUSE

THIS YEAR YOU’RE NOT GOING TO WORRY ABOUT NOT FINDING. >> YOU JUST GOT TO TRY TO FIND THE BEST PRICE. AND DIANE KEY IS SHOPPING SMART. >> WHILE CANNED CRANBERRIES ARE MORE EXPENSIVE, CRANBERRIES ARE ACTUALLY ABOUT 20% CHEAPER THIS YEAR. AND YOU GOT TO REMEMBER SOME STORES LIKE WALMART

AND ALDI ARE ALREADY OFFERING THANKSGIVING SPECIALS. >> YOU CAN GET AT A DISCOUNT. DIANE, WE WILL TAKE THOSE SAVINGS WHEREVER WE FIND THEM. >> TREVOR AULT. THANKS FOR THAT. COMING UP, REBUILDING IN MAUI, HOW VOLUNTEERS ARE WORKING TO HELP WILDFIRE VICTIMS. ONE TINY HOME AT A TIME.

SAYING ABOUT STRIKES AGAINST ISRAEL? WELL, HEY, DIANE. THEY ARE SAYING THAT THOSE STRIKES WILL WILL CONTINUE AS LONG AS ISRAEL IS CARRYING OUT THE MILITARY OPERATION THERE IN GAZA. THIS GROUND OFFENSIVE THAT WE HAVE WATCHED UNFOLD OVER THE PAST SEVERAL DAYS. AND WE ALSO UNDERSTAND FROM HEZBOLLAH, ACCORDING

TO STATEMENTS THAT THEY HAVE CLAIMED RESPONSIBILITY FOR AT LEAST TWO MORE ROCKETS OR MISSILE STRIKES ALONG LEBANON’S BORDER WITH ISRAEL, JUST TODAY. AND THAT INCLUDES THE TEN THAT WERE REPORTED JUST YESTERDAY. SO IT HAS BEEN VERY BUSY ALONG THE BORDER. HEZBOLLAH SAYING THAT THEY WILL UP THOSE STRIKES. AND INTERESTINGLY, IN THEIR

STATEMENT TODAY, THEY SAID THAT THEY USED APPROPRIATE WEAPONS. SEEMING TO SUGGEST THAT WHAT THEY DID USE THE MISSILES IN ARTILLERY WAS NO MORE AND NO LESS POWERFUL. >> WHAT ISRAEL HAS BEEN USING TO ATTACK, ATTACK LEBANON. AND THAT IS WHAT WE’VE HEARD FROM FROM HEZBOLLAH SO FAR TODAY AS THIS CONFLICT

CONTINUES TO UNFOLD. >> AND MARCUS, SECRETARY GENERAL, IS SET TO DELIVER A SPEECH ON FRIDAY. WHAT CAN WE EXPECT? HEAR FROM THAT? >> YEAH, THIS THIS IS A HIGHLY ANTICIPATED SPEECH. THE GENERAL NASRALLAH, WE OF COURSE, EXPECT THAT HE WILL TALK THEIR THEIR UNWAVERING SUPPORT, HEZBOLLAH’S UNWAVERING SUPPORT FOR

PEOPLE OF GAZA AND ALSO PALESTINIANS OVERALL. AND ALSO SPEAKING ABOUT THE WOMEN AND CHILDREN WHO HAVE DIED SINCE THE OCTOBER 7TH ATTACKS ON ISRAEL. NO DOUBT HE WILL MENTION THOSE ELEMENTS. BUT BEYOND THAT, WE’LL JUST HAVE TO AND SEE. OF COURSE, DIANA, AS YOU KNOW, A LOT OF PEOPLE ARE WONDERING

WHAT HEZBOLLAH’S NEXT MOVE MIGHT BE. AS WE KNOW, THEY HAVE BEEN CARRYING OUT ROCKET STRIKES. BUT WILL THEIR EFFORTS EXPAND BEYOND THAT? THOSE ARE SOME OF THE DETAILS THAT EVERYONE HOPING TO HEAR FROM FROM HEZBOLLAH, FROM NASRALLAH ON. AND HE HAS ALREADY RELEASED A PAIR OF DRAMATIC VIDEOS REALLY HELPING TO BUILD

THE ANTICIPATION AHEAD OF THAT SPEECH THAT THAT’S EXPECTED TO HAPPEN AT 3 P.M. ON FRIDAY. DIANE. MARCUS, IS THERE A SENSE OF HOW HEZBOLLAH’S ROLE IN THIS WAR COULD CHANGE. >> GOING. >> YEAH, THAT’S ANOTHER BIG QUESTION. AND NOBODY KNOWS. OF COURSE, THE CONCERN OVER ALL OF THIS AS WATCH

WHAT HAPPENS IN ISRAEL THAT CONTINUE TO DEVELOP A CONCERN IS THAT THIS COULD TURN INTO A WIDER CONFLICT. AND IF HEZBOLLAH WERE TO GET INVOLVED IN A DIFFERENT WAY, I.E., HAVING MORE ITS FIGHTERS INVOLVED, THAT THAT COULD REALLY CHANGE THE DYNAMIC HERE. AND YOU’RE TALKING ABOUT HEZBOLLAH? A WELL AND HEAVILY ARMED

ORGANIZATION WITH TENS OF THOANDS OF FIGHTERS BY SOME ESTIMATES, MORE THAN 100,000. SO THE SHORT ANSWER TO THAT QUESTION AGAIN IS NO KNOWS WHAT THEIR NEXT MOVE WILL BE OR HOW THEY WILL WILL CHANGE THEIR INVOLVEMENT OR THEIR ROLE IN THIS IN THE DAYS AHEAD. BUT IF THEY WERE TO GET

INVOLVED, DIANE, IT WOULD MARK A MAJOR CHANGE AND CERTAINLY WOULD ALMOST UNDOUBTEDLY LEAD TO A MUCH WIDER CONFLICT, ONE INVOLVING SEVERAL ORGANIZATIONS AND GROUPS AND COUNTRIES. >> ALL RIGHT. >> MARCUS MOORE IN BEIRUT FOR US.

IN NEW YORK TODAY AS TRUMP’S CIVIL FRAUD TRIAL ENTERS WEEK FIVE. THE EARLY WINTER BLAST NEARLY 90 MILLION AMERICANS FROM TEXAS TO NEW YORK ARE UNDER FREEZE ALERTS. >> HOW LONG? THE COLD TEMPS COULD STICK AROUND. BUT WE BEGIN WITH PEOPLE FINALLY STARTING TO PASS THROUGH THE RAFAH BORDER,

CROSSING OUT OF GAZA. FIVE AMERICAN NGO WORKERS HAVE NOW CROSSED FROM GAZA INTO EGYPT, ACCORDING TO THE PALESTINIAN CHILDREN’S RELIEF FUND. 110 DUAL NATIONALS HAVE ALSO CROSSED INTO EGYPT, ALONG WITH 17 AMBULANCES, EACH CARRYING ONE INJURED GAZAN. MEANWHILE, ISRAELI FORCES SAY THEY HAVE KILLED A TOP HAMAS COMMANDER WITH AN AIRSTRIKE

IN GAZA’S LARGEST REFUGEE CAMP. ABC NEWS INES DE LA CUETARA HAS THE LATEST FROM JERUSALEM. AMBULANCES CARRYING INJURED ENTERING EGYPT THROUGH THE JUST OPENED RAFAH BORDER CROSSING. THE PALESTINIAN RED CRESCENT SAYS MORE THAN 80 SERIOUSLY WOUNDED PEOPLE TO LEAVE GAZA FOR MEDICAL TREATMENT. EGYPT ORDERED ITS HOSPITALS

TO PREPARE TO TAKE IN DOZENS OF WOUNDED PEOPLE FROM GAZA FOR TREATMENT. >> AND JUST MILES FROM THE BORDER, A NEW FIELD HOSPITAL SET UP TO TREAT THE INJURED. THE HAMAS RUN PALESTINIAN BORDER AUTHORITY IS ALSO LETTING FOREIGN PASSPORT HOLDERS LEAVE GAZA. HUNDREDS HAD GATHERED AT THE CROSSING BUT HAD NOT BEEN

ALLOWED OUT UNTIL TODAY DUE TO DISAGREEMENTS AMONG EGYPT ISRAEL AND HAMAS. AND MORE AID TRUCKS WENT THE OTHER WAY AT THE CROSSING, CARRYING MUCH NEEDED FOOD, WATER AND MEDICINE. >> WE ARE CONTINUING TO TO INCREASE THE NUMBER THAT MAKE IT THROUGH RAFAH EVERY DAY. SO WE HAVE SUSTAINED DELIVERIES OF HUMANITARIAN ASSISTANCE.

>> PEOPLE IN GAZA ARE STILL REELING. AN ISRAELI AIRSTRIKE ON GAZA’S LARGEST REFUGEE CAMP. AT LEAST TWO PEOPLE KILLED, ACCORDING TO THE HAMAS RUN HEALTH MINISTRY. THIS MAN SAYS LOST 15 MEMBERS OF HIS FAMILY. >> ISRAEL’S DEFENSE FORCES SAY THEY WERE TARGETING AND SUCCESSFULLY KILLED A HAMAS COMMANDER WHO PLAYED A MAJOR

ROLE IN PLANNING THE OCTOBER 7TH ATTACK THAT KILLED 14 PEOPLE IN ISRAEL. THE CLAIMS THAT HAMAS IS USING CIVILIANS AS HUMAN SHIELDS. THE DEATH IN GAZA NOW OVER EIGHT AND A HALF THOUSAND, ACCORDING TO THE HAMAS PALESTINIAN HEALTH MINISTRY. ISRAELI FORCES MOVING DEEPER INTO GAZA RELEASING FOOTAGE SHOWING ITS TROOPS

ON THE GROUND BATTLING HAMAS FIGHTERS. THE ISRAELI MILITARY ANNOUNCING MORE THAN TEN SOLDIERS HAVE NOW BEEN KILLED IN ACTION. >> ABC NEWS INES DE LA CUETARA IN JERUSALEM. YOU. AND OFFICIALS IN LEBANON ARE REPORTEDLY BLAMING WILDFIRES THAT BROKE OUT OVERNIGHT ON ISRAELI SHELLING. CROSS-BORDER CLASHES BETWEEN IDF AND IRAN BACKED MILITANTS

EXCUSE ME, MILITANT GROUP HEZBOLLAH ARE FUELING CONCERNS THE BORDER WITH LEBANON COULD TURN INTO ANOTHER FULL FRONT IN THE WAR. >> OUR MARCUS MOORE IS COVERING THIS STORY FROM. HE JOINS ME NOW WITH MORE. MARCUS, WHAT IS HEZBOLLAH SAYING ABOUT STRIKES AGAINST ISRAEL? WELL, HEY, DIANE. THEY ARE SAYING THAT THOSE

STRIKES WILL WILL CONTINUE AS LONG AS ISRAEL IS CARRYING OUT MILITARY OPERATION THERE IN GAZA. THIS GROUND OFFENSIVE THAT WE HAVE WATCHED UNFOLD OVER THE PAST SEVERAL DAYS. AND WE ALSO UNDERSTAND FROM HEZBOLLAH, ACCORDING TO STATEMENTS THAT THEY HAVE CLAIMED RESPONSIBILITY FOR AT LEAST TWO MORE ROCKETS STRIKES OR MISSILE STRIKES

ALONG LEBANON’S BORDER WITH ISRAEL, JUST TODAY. AND THAT INCLUDES THE TEN THAT WERE REPORTED JUST YESTERDAY. >> SO IT HAS BEEN VERY BUSY ALONG THE BORDER. HEZBOLLAH SAYING THAT THEY WILL KEEP UP THOSE STRIKES. AND INTERESTINGLY, IN THEIR STATEMENT TODAY, DIANE SAID THAT THEY USED APPROPRIATE WEAPONS SEEMING TO SUGGEST

THAT WHAT THEY DID USE THE MISSILES AND THE ARTILLERY WAS NO MORE AND NO LESS POWERFUL THAN WHAT ISRAEL BEEN USING TO ATTACK, ATTACK LEBANON AND THAT IS WHAT WE’VE HEARD FROM FROM HEZBOLLAH SO FAR TODAY AS THIS CONFLICT CONTINUES TO UNFOLD. >> AND MARK, IS HEZBOLLAH GENERAL IS SET TO DELIVER

A SPEECH ON FRIDAY. WHAT CAN WE EXPECT TO FROM THAT? >> YEAH, THIS THIS IS A HIGHLY ANTICIPATED SPEECH. THE GENERAL NASRALLAH, WE OF COURSE, EXPECT THAT HE WILL TALK ABOUT THEIR THEIR UNWAVERING SUPPORT, HEZBOLLAH’S UNWAVERING SUPPORT FOR THE PEOPLE OF GAZA AND ALSO PALESTINIANS OVERALL. AND ALSO SPEAKING ABOUT THE

WOMEN AND CHILDREN WHO HAVE DIED SINCE THE OCTOBER 7TH ATTACKS, ISRAEL. NO DOUBT HE WILL MENTION THAT THOSE ELEMENTS. BUT BEYOND THAT, WE’LL JUST HAVE TO WAIT AND SEE. OF COURSE, DIANE, AS YOU KNOW, A LOT OF PEOPLE ARE WONDERING WHAT HEZBOLLAH’S NEXT MOVE MIGHT BE. AS WE KNOW, THEY HAVE BEEN

CARRYING OUT ROCKET STRIKES, BUT WILL THEIR EFFORTS EXPAND BEYOND THAT? THOSE ARE SOME OF THE DETAILS THAT EVERYONE IS HOPING TO HEAR FROM FROM HEZBOLLAH, FROM NASRALLAH ON FRIDAY? >> AND HE HAS ALREADY RELEASED A PAIR OF DRAMATIC VIDEOS, REALLY HELPING TO TO BUILD THE ANTICIPATION AHEAD OF THAT SPEECH.

AND THAT’S EXPECTED TO HAPPEN AT 3 P.M. ON FRIDAY DIANE. >> MARCUS, IS THERE A SENSE OF HOW ROLE IN THIS WAR COULD CHANGE GOING FORWARD? YEAH, THAT’S THAT’S ANOTHER BIG QUESTION AND NOBODY KNOWS. >> OF COURSE, THE CONCERN OVER ALL OF THIS, AS WE WATCH WHAT HAPPENS IN ISRAEL THAT TO

DEVELOP A CONCERN IS THAT THIS COULD TURN INTO A WIDER CONFLICT AND IF HEZBOLLAH WERE TO GET INVOLVED IN A DIFFERENT WAY I.E. HAVING MORE OF ITS FIGHTERS INVOLVED, THAT THAT COULD REALLY CHANGE THE DYNAMIC HERE. AND YOU’RE TALKING ABOUT HEZBOLLAH, A WELL-ORGANIZED AND HEAVILY ARMED ORGANIZATION WITH TENS

OF THOUSANDS OF FIGHTERS BY, SOME ESTIMATES MORE THAN 100,000. >> SO THE SHORT ANSWER TO THAT QUESTION AGAIN IS NO ONE KNOWS WHAT THEIR NEXT MOVE WILL BE OR HOW THEY WILL WILL CHANGE THEIR INVOLVEMENT OR THEIR ROLE IN THIS. IN THE DAYS. BUT IF THEY WERE TO GET

INVOLVED, DIANE, IT WOULD MARK A MAJOR CHANGE AND CERTAINLY WOULD ALMOST UNDOUBTEDLY LEAD TO A MUCH WIDER ONE INVOLVING SEVERAL ORGANIZATIONS AND GROUPS AND COUNTRIES. ALL RIGHT. MARCUS MOORE IN BEIRUT FOR US. THANK YOU, MARCUS. MEANWHILE, UNICEF IS CALLING FOR A CEASE FIRE, SAYING GAZA IS NOW A, QUOTE, GRAVEYARD FOR

THOUSANDS OF CHILDREN. UNICEF SAYS OVER 420 KIDS ARE BEING KILLED OR INJURED EVERY SINGLE DAY AMID INCREASED DESTRUCTION TO CIVILIAN INFRASTRUCTURE, REFUGEE CAMPS AND HOSPITALS. NOW THEY WANT AN IMMEDIATE HUMANITY AND CEASE FIRE TO ALLOW FOR THE FLOW OF AID AND FOR ABDUCTED KIDS BE RELEASED. UNICEF SPOKESPERSON RICARDO

PETERS JOINING ME NOW FOR MORE. RICARDO. UNICEF HAS BEEN DISTRIBUTING CLEAN WATER, HYGIENE AND MEDICAL SUPPLIES IN GAZA. HOW IS ISRAEL’S EXPANDING GROUND OPERATION AFFECTING YOUR WORK THERE? HI, DIANE. THANKS FOR HAVING ME. THE CONTINUING VIOLENCE IS AFFECTING OUR WORK EVERY DAY. IT’S VERY DIFFICULT TO DISTRIBUTE OUR SUPPLIES

ON THE GROUND TO HAVE THOSE LOGISTICS ALIGNED. SO THOSE IN NEED, ESPECIALLY CHILDREN. LET’S REMIND THE THAT HALF THE POPULATION IN GAZA IS OF MINORS AND THEY ARE AT THE SHARP END OF THIS CRISIS. SO WITH GROUND INCREASING AND THE CONFLICT ESCALATING AS IT IT BECOMES VERY DIFFICULT FOR US TO CONTINUE

OUR HUMANITARIAN WORK, EVEN THOUGH SUPPLIES ARE GETTING IN AND ARE NOT ENOUGH, JUST A DROP IN THE OCEAN, AS WAS SAID BEFORE. HOWEVER, IF WE HAVE SAFETY TO OPERATE ON THE GROUND AND MORE SUPPLIES START GETTING THROUGH CROSSINGS, IT BECOMES REALLY DIFFICULT TO A DIFFERENCE FOR CHILDREN ON THE GROUND.

>> AND GAZA IS FACING A NUMBER OF BUT A WATER CRISIS, PERHAPS CHIEF AMONG THEM. WHAT’S THE LATEST ON THAT AND WHERE ARE YOU SEEING THE IMPACT MOST? WELL, WE’RE SEEING IT ON EVERYDAY WATER NEEDS FOR CHILDREN. I MEAN, WE HAVE A STORY FROM OUR ONE OF OUR COLLEAGUES

ON THE GROUND WHO’S PALESTINIAN, WHO HAS TWO GIRLS, ONE OF SEVEN, AND THE OTHER ONE OF FOUR WHO ARE ASKING THEIR MOM. WHY DO WE HAVE TO DRINK THIS WATER WITH SO MUCH SALT IT. WHERE’S THE NORMAL WATER QUOTE THAT THAT WE HAD BEFORE? I MEAN, THEY ARE NOT HAVING

ACCESS TO THAT. SO THE RISKS ARE IMMENSE. ON TOP OF WATERBORNE DISEASES FROM DRINKING CONTAMINATED WATER. AND TO SOLVE THAT, WE NEED AID TO GET OUR SUPPLIES IN, INCLUDING WATER AND BE START WORKING ON THE INFRASTRUCTURE THAT GOT DESTROY INCLUDING DESALINATION PLANTS THAT WERE RESPONSIBLE

FOR FOR A LOT OF THAT OF THAT THE PROVISION OF WATER TO CHILDREN AND FAMILIES. SO THE IMPACT IS IMMENSE AS WITH ANYTHING ELSE AND CRISIS AND THE WATER IS AN EVERYDAY NEED AND IT’S A MATTER OF LIFE AND DEATH FOR CHILDREN AND THEY’RE NOT RECEIVING A SUFFICIENT RIGHT NOW.

>> AND RICARDO, THE IDF SAYS THAT THEY HAVE WARNED PEOPLE REPEATEDLY TO EVACUATE NORTHERN GAZA AND THAT ANYONE STAYING THERE IS PUTTING THEMSELVES IN HARM’S WAY. WHAT’S YOUR REACTION TO THAT? >> WELL, OUR REACTION IS TO, FIRST AND FOREMOST, ASK FOR THE SAFETY OF CHILDREN, NO MATTER WHERE THEY ARE.

AND IN GAZA RIGHT NOW, ALONG THE GAZA STRIP AND THERE IS NO SAFE PLACE FOR THEM. AND RIGHT NOW, NO MATTER WHERE CHILDREN MOVE, THEY ARE EXPOSED TO THE CONFLICT AND TO THE VIOLENCE, TO TO BOMBINGS AND. THEY ARE TRAUMATIZED BY THAT. THEY’RE HIDING IN SCHOOLS. WELL, INSTEAD, GOING TO CLASSROOMS TO STUDY

AND LEARN AND THRIVE. SO THAT THEIR LIVES ARE COMPLETELY DISRUPTED. AND NO MATTER WHERE THEY GO IN THE TERRITORY ALONG THE GAZA STRIP, THEY ARE NOT SAFE. THERE IS NO SAFE PLACE FOR THEM RIGHT NOW. AND YOU CAN THAT BY THE NUMBER OF OF REPORTED DEATHS THAT CAME THROUGH OVER 3.5 THOUSAND NOW.

>> IT’S INCREDIBLE. NOW, WITH THE RAFAH CROSSING NOW OPEN, HOW MUCH OF A DIFFERENCE DO YOU THINK THAT WILL MAKE IN GETTING AID TO WHERE IT’S NEEDED? >> WELL, IT’S — IT’S IT’S A GLIMPSE OF HOPE FOR. SURE. WE REALLY WELCOME THAT DECISION. AND BECAUSE WE CAN START EVACUATING, INJURED

CIVILIANS, INCLUDING CHILDREN, AND ALSO WE CAN HOPEFULLY EXPAND OUR OUR SUPPLY INCOME AND, PROVIDE MORE SUPPLIES AND LIFESAVING SERVICES FOR CHILDREN. SO ANY ANY SMALL OR BIG OR MEDIUM ACTION NOW MAKES A BIG DIFFERENCE. AND WE’RE CALLING FOR OTHER CROSSINGS TO OPEN FOR HUMANITARIAN CEASEFIRE SO WE CAN START INCREASING THE AMOUNT

OF SUPPLIES THAT GO IN RIGHT NOW, IT’S REALLY NOT SUFFICIENT. BEFORE THIS CRISIS, WE DEALING WITH 400 TRUCKS MORE OR LESS CROSSING TO DELIVER AND NOW THIS IS AROUND 100. SO EVEN BEFORE THE CRISIS, THAT NUMBER WASN’T IDEAL. AND NOW IT’S FAR, FAR FROM WHAT WE NEED.

>> LESS AID NOW THAN THAN BEFORE. UNICEF SPOKESPERSON RICARDO PETERS. RICARDO, THANK. GOOD LUCK. MEANWHILE, HERE AT HOME, A NEW FUNDING IS BREWING IN WASHINGTON. THE BIDEN ADMINISTRATION IS ASKING CONGRESS BILLIONS OF DOLLARS FOR ISRAEL FOR HUMANITARIAN AID FOR PALESTINIANS AND FOR UKRAINE. NOW, THE NEW SPEAKER OF THE HOUSE, MIKE JOHNSON,

IS DEMANDING THAT MONEY BE TAKEN FROM THE IRS BUDGET? >> HE PUT THIS TO THE AMERICAN PEOPLE AND THEY WEIGH THE TWO NEEDS. I THINK THEY’RE GOING TO SAY STANDING WITH ISRAEL AND PROTECTING THE INNOCENT OVER THERE IS IN OUR NATIONAL INTEREST AND IS A MORE IMMEDIATE NEED AN IRS AGENTS.

>> NOW, THE NONPARTISAN CONGRESSIONAL BUDGET OFFICE SAYS THE GOP PLAN TO IRS FUNDING WOULD ADD MORE THAN $12 BILLION TO THE DEFICIT OVER THE NEXT DECADE. SENIOR CONGRESSIONAL CORRESPONDENT RACHEL SCOTT HAS THE LATEST. >> HI, RACHEL. HEY, DIANE. WELL, THE BIDEN ADMINISTRATION HAS BEEN MAKING THE ROUNDS HERE ON CAPITOL HILL, PLEADING

WITH CONGRESS FOR ADDITIONAL FUNDING FOR BOTH ISRAEL AND UKRAINE, INSISTING THAT THESE TWO WARS ARE INTERCONNECTED. BUT REPUBLICANS OVER IN THE HOUSE UNCONVINCED. THE PRESIDENT IS ASKING CONGRESS FOR $14 BILLION IN AID TO ISRAEL, 61 BILLION IN AID TO UKRAINE. >> THERE IS BIPARTISAN SUPPORT FOR THAT OVER IN THE SENATE.

BUT IN THE HOUSE, THE NEW SPEAKER IS PLANNING TO MOVE FORWARD WITH HIS OWN PROPOSAL, EXPECTED TO PUT A BILL ON THE FLOOR TOMORROW THAT WOULD ONLY INCLUDE FUNDING FOR ISRAEL. AND IT ALSO INCLUDES A DEMAND FROM JOHNSON THAT ANY OF THE MONEY SPENT ON ISRAEL WOULD THEN HAVE TO BE CUT FROM

THE BUDGET OF THE IRS. JOHNSON LIKE A GROWING NUMBER OVER IN THE HOUSE, ARE SKEPTICAL. THEY HAVE DEEP RESERVATIONS ABOUT MORE FUNDING FOR UKRAINE, SAYING INCLUDING IT IN THEIR BILL IS A NONSTARTER. BUT THIS HAS NOW SET THE STAGE FOR A MASSIVE FIGHT. THIS MORNING, THE WHITE HOUSE SAYS THE PRESIDENT WOULD

VETO THAT REPUBLICAN PROPOSAL FROM THE HOUSE. JUST SAYING FLAT OUT THAT IT’S BAD FOR NATIONAL SECURITY. THE MIDDLE EAST, ISRAEL DIANE. ALL RIGHT. SENIOR CONGRESSIONAL CORRESPONDENT RACHEL SCOTT, THANK YOU. AND DONALD TRUMP JR IS SET TO TAKE THE WITNESS STAND IN THE TRUMP ORGANIZATION CIVIL FRAUD TRIAL TODAY. TRUMP JR.

THE FIRST OF HIS SIBLINGS TO TESTIFY IN THE CASE IS AGAIN THE FIRST NOW. AND THIS CASE COULD TEAR THE FAMILY REAL ESTATE BUSINESS APART. ME NOW, ABC NEWS SENIOR INVESTIGATIVE REPORTER AARON KATERSKY HAS MORE. ERIN, WHAT’S THE LATEST FROM THE COURT? WELL, THEY’RE STILL HEARING FROM AN EXPERT WITNESS AND IT’S

BEEN TESTIMONY, DIANE, BECAUSE THIS IS THE FIRST WITNESS IN THE CIVIL FRAUD TO ACTUALLY START TO TALK ABOUT THE POTENTIAL PENALTIES THAT THE TRUMPS MAY HAVE TO PAY, DEPENDING ON HOW THE JUDGE RULES. REMEMBER, IT’S A BENCH TRIAL. NO JURY, BUT THE EXPERT SAYS THAT BECAUSE TRUMP BUMPED UP

HIS NET WORTH AND HE WAS ABLE TO GET BETTER TERMS ON LOANS, THAT THAT MEANT THAT SOME OF THE BANKS THAT LENDING MONEY MISSED OUT ON 68 MILLION IN POTENTIAL INTEREST. AND THAT’S PART OF THE CALCULATION FOR FOR A DISGORGEMENT AT THE END OF ALL OF THIS.

DONALD TRUMP IS EXPECTED TO BE THE NEXT WITNESS UP. HE WILL FACE QUESTIONS ABOUT ROLE AT THE TRUMP ORGANIZATION, WHICH HE AND HIS BROTHER TOOK OVER AFTER FORMER PRESIDENT TRUMP TOOK OVER THE WHITE HOUSE. MEANWHILE, ERIN, THE FEDERAL JUDGE OVERSEEING THE PROBE INTO TRUMP’S HANDLING CLASSIFIED DOCUMENTS IS SET TO HEAR

ARGUMENTS TODAY ABOUT TRUMP’S TO DELAY THE DEADLINE, SOURCES TELL ABC NEWS. TRUMP WAS IN MIAMI YESTERDAY, REVIEWING EVIDENCE SHARED BY SPECIAL COUNSEL JACK SMITH. SO WHAT ARE YOU LEARNING ABOUT THAT? THIS ALL HAS TO DO WITH THE NATURE OF THE EVIDENCE. IT’S ALL ABOUT CLASSIFIED DOCUMENTS.

AND THE SPECIAL COUNSEL HAS BEEN ABOUT GIVING ACCESS TO TRUMP TO TO TO THOSE DOCUMENTS, BECAUSE, OF COURSE, THE SPECIAL COUNSEL BELIEVES THAT HE MISHANDLED THEM IN THE FIRST PLACE. SO WHILE THEY FIGURE OUT WHERE AND HOW TRUMP CAN SAFELY VIEW THOSE DOCUMENTS SO HE CAN PROPERLY PREPARE A DEFENSE,

THE TRUMP DEFENSE HAS ASKED THE JUDGE TO KIND OF PAUSE THE TRIAL. OF COURSE, WHOLE STRATEGY IS TO DELAY IT AS LONG AS POSSIBLE. SO IN THE EVENT HE’S, AGAIN, HE COULD MAKE IT GO AWAY. BUT THE SO THE JUDGE IS GOING TO BE HEARING ARGUMENTS ABOUT THAT AND POTENTIALLY

WHETHER PUT THE TRIAL DATE OR SHE HAS ALREADY TENTATIVELY SCHEDULED THE TRIAL FOR MAY AND IT COULD BE PUSHED EVEN BEYOND THAT. >> MEANWHILE, ERIN, ANOTHER CASE TRUMP IS RESUMING IN COLORADO TODAY. A GROUP OF VOTERS IS TRYING TO THE 14TH AMENDMENT TO KEEP HIM OFF THE PRESIDENTIAL BALLOT .

>> WHAT’S THE LATEST ON THAT CASE? THIS IS THE CASE THAT THAT ARGUES THAT BECAUSE TRUMP IN AN INSURRECTION, IN THE VIEW OF SIX CURRENT AND FORMER COLORADO REPUBLICAN VOTERS, HE IS DISQUALIFIED FROM APPEARING ON THE BALLOT BASED THE 14TH AMENDMENT. THEY’RE HEARING NOW THE JUDGE

IS HEARING NOW THAT THE LAST WITNESSES FOR THE PLAINTIFFS, THEIR EXPERT IN CONSTITUTIONAL LAW, TO GIVE THEIR OPINION AND THEN TRUMP SIDE IS GOING TO GO. AND THEY SAY THAT THIS IS JUST A SHOW. THIS IS LIKE THE MINI ME OF THE JANUARY 6TH COMMITTEE. AND THEY’RE NOT IMPRESSED WITH THE PLAINTIFFS

PRESENTATION. BUT IT IS JUST THE FIRST LAWSUIT. THERE’S ANOTHER ONE THAT’S GOING TO BE HEARD TOMORROW, MINNESOTA AND MORE AFTER THAT IN MICHIGAN AND NEW HAMPSHIRE. ALL RIGHT. OUR SENIOR INVESTIGATIVE REPORTER, AARON KATERSKY ERIN. >> AND THE HOUSE IS EXPECTED TO VOTE ON A RESOLUTION TONIGHT TO EXPEL EMBATTLED

CONGRESSMAN GEORGE SANTOS. NEW YORK REPUBLICANS, THE RESOLUTION, AFTER MONTHS OF FRUSTRATION AND PERSISTENT CALLS FOR TO RESIGN. BUT THEY NEED A TWO THIRDS MAJORITY TO SUCCEED. THE NEW HOUSE SPEAKER, MIKE JOHNSON, HAS SIGNALED CONCERN THAT EXPELLING COULD ENDANGER THE SLIM MAJORITY, SAYING HE DESERVES DUE PROCESS .

SANTOS HAS NOT BEEN CONVICTED OF A CRIME, BUT HE HAS BEEN INDICTED ON THREE FEDERAL COUNTS. >> HE’S PLEADED NOT GUILTY TO THE CHARGES IN COURT. >> COMING UP, REAL ESTATE RIP OFF A MAJOR RULING FINDS REALTORS LIABLE FOR COLLUDING TO KEEP COMMISSIONS HIGH. WHAT IT IF YOU’RE LOOKING

TO BUY OR SELL A HOME. ALSO AHEAD, STUDENT LOAN REPAYMENT PROBLEMS, THE ERRORS THE GOVERNMENT IS WORKING TO CORRECT. HOW TO FIND OUT IF YOUR ACCOUNT WAS IMPACTED. TONIGHT, THE CYCLE OF VIOLENCE AS ISRAEL FACES THE THREAT OF A REGIONAL WAR. PLUS, FORMER PRESIDENT TRUMP’S CHILDREN TAKE THE STAND IN A

CASE AGAINST HIM. MORE AMERICANS TURN TO THE MOST WATCHED NEWSCAST ON ALL OF TELEVISION. “WORLD NEWS TONIGHT” WITH DAVID MUIR COMING. >> GIVE IT TO ME. HE WELCOME BACK. THE FEDERAL GOVERNMENT SAYS, IT’S WORKING TO FIX A NUMBER OF PROBLEMS PLAGUING THE RESTART OF STUDENT LOAN REPAYMENTS.

THE DEPARTMENT OF EDUCATION SAYS ROUGHLY 830,000 PEOPLE MISSED THEIR FIRST PAYMENTS AFTER LOAN SERVICE FAILED TO SEND OUT NOTICES TO MORE THAN 2 MILLION BORROWERS. THE DEPARTMENT OF EDUCATION SPOKESPERSON ALSO TELLS ABC NEWS 20 1000 PEOPLE RECEIVED INCORRECT BILLS AND 16,000 MORE RECEIVED BILLS DESPITE THE BIDEN ADMINISTRATION CANCELING THEIR DEBT.

LET’S BRING IN SENIOR NATIONAL POLICY REPORTER AND FLAHERTY FOR MORE ON THIS. AND THIS SOUNDS LIKE A MESS. WHAT WENT WRONG HERE? YEAH, IT’S ABOUT THE MESS THAT YOU WOULD EXPECT AFTER THERE’S BEEN A THREE YEAR HIATUS WHERE PEOPLE DIDN’T HAVE TO MAKE PAYMENTS ON, THESE STUDENT LOANS.

>> AND I THINK THERE ARE REALLY TWO BIG THINGS THAT ARE HAPPENING HERE. >> ONE IS THAT ELIGIBILITY ELIGIBILITY? I CAN’T SAY THAT WORD. PEOPLE ARE QUALIFYING FOR DIFFERENT. SO THERE’S NOW A SAVE A PROGRAM THAT BIDEN HAS IN EFFECT THAT BASICALLY SET YOUR MONTHLY PAYMENT TO YOUR INCOME LEVEL.

SO PEOPLE ARE NOW HAVING TO PAY DIFFERENT THINGS EACH MONTH THAN THEY DID BEFORE. SO THE SERVICERS ARE SCRAMBLING TO FIGURE THAT OUT. I THINK THE OTHER THING THAT’S HAPPENED IS THAT THESE LOAN SERVICERS HAVE CHANGED SO NAVIENT, FOR EXAMPLE, WITH A VERY LARGE LOAN SERVICER THAT IS NO LONGER WORKING

ON FEDERAL STUDENT LOANS. SO PEOPLE NOW HAVE DIFFERENT THAT THEY’RE DEALING WITH. SO QUITE A BIT OF A MESS. >> AFTER THREE YEARS, EVERYTHING HAS CHANGED. SO WHAT DOES THIS MEAN FOR BORROWERS? AND COULD THOSE WHO MISSED PAYMENTS, PENALTIES EVEN IF THEY DIDN’T GET THE NOTICE IN TIME?

SO I THINK THE REALLY BIG THING TO UNDERSTAND WITH THIS IS THAT NOBODY IS GOING TO BE FACING PENALTIES FOR ABOUT A YEAR UNDER THE BIDEN ADMINISTRATION. AND THEY HAVE SAID THAT THEY’RE GOING TO GIVE IT A YEAR GRACE PERIOD. BUT SPECIFICALLY FOR PEOPLE WHO HAD MAHELA, THEY WERE WORKING

WITH THAT LOAN SERVICER AND THEY DIDN’T GET THEIR BILLS ON TIME. THE ADMINISTRATION HAS ASKED MAHELA TO PUT THOSE ACCOUNTS IN WHAT THEY CALL ADMINISTRATIVE FORBEARANCE, ESSENTIALLY PUT THEM ON ICE SO THAT NOBODY IS PENALIZED IF THEY DIDN’T MAKE PAYMENT IN TIME. YOU’RE SUPPOSED TO GET ABOUT THREE WEEKS NOTICE.

SOME PEOPLE ONLY GOT THAN A WEEK. THEY SAY THAT’S NOT FAIR. THEY’RE TRYING TO SORT THROUGH PROGRAM PROBLEMS RIGHT NOW. >> SO THE ADMINISTRATION NOW SAYS WORKING TO FIX THESE ISSUES. HOW SO? IN ADDITION TO ASKING FOR THAT ADMINISTRATIVE FORBEARANCE WITH MAHELA ACCOUNT OWNERS, THE ADMINISTRATION IS ALSO DOING SOMETHING WE HAVEN’T SEEN

BEFORE. THEY ARE GOING AFTER THESE LOAN SERVICERS THAT ARE MAKING MISTAKES AND SAYING, WE’RE GOING TO WITHHOLD MONEY FROM YOUR CONTRACT UNTIL YOU CAN FIX PROBLEMS. SO IN THE CASE OF MAHELA AND WE HAVE ASKED THEM FOR COMMENT, THEY DID NOT RESPOND TO REQUESTS FOR COMMENT FROM ABC, BUT THEY ARE GOING.

THE ADMINISTRATION SAYS THEY’RE GOING TO WITHHOLD $7 MILLION IN PAYMENTS ON THEIR CONTRACT UNTIL THEY CAN SORT THIS OUT. >> SO HOW DO YOU FIND OUT IF YOUR WAS IMPACTED OR WHAT DO YOU DO IF YOU HAVE QUESTIONS. YEAH, I THINK MOST IMPORTANT THING IS THAT YOU HAVE TO CREATE A PAPER TRAIL.

YOU HAVE TO GO THROUGH THOSE PAPERS. NOTHING IS GOING AWAY. YOU HAVE TO SORT THROUGH THEM AND FIGURE OUT WHETHER OR NOT THESE BILLS ARE ACCURATE. SO LOOK AT THEM CAREFULLY. CONTACT YOUR LOAN SERVICER. YOU CAN ALSO GO TO STUDENT AID DOT GOV. >> BUT YOU’VE GOT TO FIGURE

THIS OUT. IT’S NOT GOING TO GO AWAY. ALL RIGHT, SENIOR NATIONAL POLICY REPORTER AND FLAHERTY, THANK YOU. AND A MAJOR RULING IN A MISSOURI REAL ESTATE CASE COULD SHAKE UP THE MARKET FOR HOMEBUYERS SELLERS. A KANSAS CITY JURY FOUND THE NATIONAL ASSOCIATION OF REALTORS, OTHER ORGANIZATIONS CONSPIRED TO KEEP REALTOR COMMISSION HIGH.

THE PLAINTIFFS ARGUED THE ORGANIZATIONS FORCED HOME SELLERS TO PAY BOTH THE SELLER AND BUYER FEES. CALLING THAT PRACTICE WRONG AND ILLEGAL. THE JURY APPARENTLY AGREED, AWARDING HALF A MILLION DOLLARS TO MISSOURI HOME SELLERS, OR RATHER AWARDING HALF A MILLION HOME SELLERS, $1.8 BILLION IN DAMAGES. LET’S BRING IN ABC NEWS

BUSINESS REPORTER ALEXIS ON THAT. >> ALEXIS, SO HOW DID THESE ORGANIZATIONS FORCE SELLERS TO PAY THESE FEES? WELL, FIRST, I JUST WANT TO TAKE A STEP BACK AND SAY IS A HUGE PRECEDENT SETTING RULING IF IT STICKS AND IT COULD HAVE LONG LASTING RAMIFICATIONS FOR THE REAL ESTATE INDUSTRY, IT COULD

CHANGE THE WAY AMERICANS PAY THOSE BROKER FEES GOING FORWARD. SO AT THE HEART OF THIS CASE IS SOMETHING CALLED AN OFFER OF COMPENSATION WHICH BASICALLY SAYS THE SELLER MUST THE AGENT FEE FOR THEMSELVES, BUT ALSO FOR THE BUYER. >> IN DOING SO, THEY’RE SAYING THAT THESE ORGANIZATIONS IN ESSENCE INFLATE THE HOME

OF THE PRICE, BECAUSE THOSE COMMISSIONS ARE ESSENTIALLY BAKED INTO THE PRICE. SO PEOPLE ARE PAYING PRICES THAT ARE HIGHER. >> SO HOW COULD THIS CHANGE THE WAY REAL ESTATE AGENTS DO BUSINESS? AND WHAT DOES THIS MEAN FOR SOMEONE TRYING TO BUY OR SELL A HOME? IT’S STILL YET TO BE

DETERMINED. THE FINAL JUDGMENT HASN’T COME DOWN FROM THIS IN KANSAS CITY, BUT IT COULD MEAN THAT THIS OFFER OF COMPENSATION NOT GOING TO BE A RULE NATIONWIDE. IT COULD MEAN THAT SELLERS WILL NO LONGER HAVE TO PAY THE BROKER ON BUYER SIDE. AND IT COULD REALLY CHANGE THE DYNAMIC.

I MEAN, THERE BEEN REPORTS THAT THE INTERNET HAS CHANGED THE REAL ESTATE INDUSTRY. SO NOW REGULAR FOLKS CAN GO ON AND DO RESEARCH IN THEIR AREA ABOUT HOW MUCH IS A HOME SELLING FOR WHERE ARE THE HOMES FOR SALE THAT THEY’RE QUESTIONING THE OVERALL VALUE OF REAL AGENTS.

THERE ARE SIMILAR CASES IN THE WORKS. MISSOURI. YOU’RE SAYING THIS COULD POTENTIALLY ON. SO WHAT’S THE LANDSCAPE THERE? I THINK IT’S A IT’S A CHANGING LANDSCAPE. AND A LOT IS GOING TO REST ON WHETHER OR NOT THIS CASE REMAINS THE WAY IT IS. I MEAN, I KNOW THE NATIONAL

ASSOCIATION REALTORS SAYS THEY’RE GOING TO APPEAL TO MAJOR REAL ESTATE FIRMS, PART OF THIS VERDICT. HOME AMERICA SERVICES SAYS THEY’RE TO APPEAL. KELLER WILLIAMS SAYS THEY ARE THINKING ABOUT APPEALING THIS COULD TAKE YEARS TO GET THROUGH THE COURTS. BUT — BUT AT THE AT THE HEART OF IS THESE COMPENSATION RULES

AND THE WAY BROKERS ARE PAID. >> I THINK WE’RE GOING TO SEE SOME MAJOR CHANGES MOVING FORWARD. ALL RIGHT. INTERESTING ABC BUSINESS REPORTER ALEXIS CHRISTOFOROUS. >> THANKS, ALEXIS. PLEASURE. >> COMING UP, A PRESCHOOL TEACHER TURNED INTERNET SENSATION. WE GO BEHIND THE SCENES WITH MISS RACHEL ON WHY THERE THAN

MISS RACHEL HAS CAPTIVATED MILLIONS WITH HER SIGNATURE HIGH PITCHED VOICE AND CATCHY MELODIES. BUT THERE’S MORE TO HER VIRAL VIDEOS, YOU MIGHT THINK. ABC’S EVA PILGRIM SAT DOWN WITH HER TO LEARN MORE ABOUT. >> THE WOMAN BEHIND THE PHENOMENON. >> YES, YOU’LL SEE IF YOU KNOW A TODDLER.

THERE’S A GOOD CHANCE YOU’LL KNOW THIS VOICE. >> HELLO, RACHEL. >> A CURSO KNOWN AS MISS RACHEL. THE YOUTUBE TIKTOK SENSATION WITH NEARLY 7 MILLION SUBSCRIBERS HAS BEEN CALLED THIS GENERATION’S MISTER ROGERS . >> A BEAUTIFUL DAY FOR A NEIGHBOR. I GOT A MASTER’S IN EDUCATION

AND I WAS A PUBLIC SCHOOL MUSIC TEACHER. I WAS AMAZED HOW WONDERFUL MUSIC IS FOR FINDING AND SOOTHING BABIES AND TODDLERS. >> BUT EVERYTHING CHANGED WHEN HER OWN SON EXPERIENCED SPEECH DELAYS. >> YOU SAY THE WORDS SOMETIMES YOU ZOOM IT REALLY CLOSE ON THE MOUTH AND SAYS, HMM,

I THINK FOR MY SON, HIS BRAIN WASN’T REALLY CONNECTING WITH HIS MOUTH. WE REALLY NEEDED TO SEE WHAT THE MOUTH WAS DOING. I WANTED SOMETHING FOR HIM SO BAD THAT WOULD HELP HIM. AND IT WASN’T THERE. I THOUGHT MAYBE WE COULD CREATE IT FOR HIM AND OTHER KIDS THAT NEED IT.

>> I JUST DIDN’T KNOW IT WAS GOING TO BE. A LOT OF PEOPLE WOULD KEEPING YOU BUBBLE GUM. SHE SAYS HER METHODS ARE BACKED WITH RESEARCH ON SPEECH DEVELOPMENT AND EARLY CHILDHOOD EDUCATION. ON THIS SHOW, I MIGHT GO. >> CAN YOU SEE THE BASS? NO. WHEN WE TOUCHED OUR NOSE, WE

TOUCHED NOTES. SO WITH THAT, I’M ONE IMITATION. AND IMITATION IS THE BUILDING OF SPEECH. I’M ENCOURAGING POINTING, WHICH IS A MILESTONE AND BEING SILLY, WHICH IS ENGAGING. I’M THINKING ABOUT A LOT OF THINGS WHEN I DO SOMETHING SIMPLE LIKE THAT. >> SHE SAYS EVEN THAT SIGNATURE HIGH PITCH PLAYS AN IMPORTANT ROLE.

IT’S FUNNY, I HAVE THIS SINGSONG TONE NATURALLY, BUT AROUND THE WORLD, STUDIES SHOW THAT ALL PARENTS ACTUALLY NEED TO RAISE THEIR VOICE WHEN THEY TALK TO BABIES AND, TODDLERS, AND THAT THAT IS HELPFUL FOR THEIR LANGUAGE DEVELOPMENT. >> THIS LIKE MIND BLOWING BECAUSE IT SEEMS SO SIMPLE. WELL, YEAH, IT’S A LOT

OF RESEARCH AND LIKE, DORKY RESEARCH. I DO. I READ RESEARCH PAPERS. WHAT’S EXCITING IS WE SO MANY PARENTS ON SOCIAL MEDIA WORKING ON THESE THINGS AWAY FROM THE SCREEN, TWEETS AND USING THE TECHNIQUES IN SONGS AND THE GAMES. AND THAT’S JUST SO WONDERFUL TO. SEE, BECAUSE WE DON’T WANT KIDS

WATCHING TONS OF TV. THERE’S THIS WHOLE KIND OF HOW MUCH SCREEN TIME FOR KIDS TO WE SHOULDN’T HAVE AROUND THE SCREEN SO MUCH. HOW DO YOU FEEL ABOUT THAT. WHAT WE TRY TO DO IS PROVIDE THE MOST HELPFUL CONTENT WE CAN THAT MODELS ALL THESE WONDERFUL TECHNIQUE SONGS, GAMES

THAT THEY CAN USE AWAY FROM THE SCREEN. AND WE REALLY SEE THAT HAPPENING. I THINK A WORD WOULD BE BALANCE WHEN IT COMES TO SCREEN TIME. MOST PARENTS ARE STRUGGLING, LET’S BE HONEST, ABOUT AN HOUR, AND I THINK WE NEED LESS JUDGMENT AND SHAME. I THINK WE NEED TO SUPPORT

PARENTS AND YOU NEVER KNOW WHAT SOMEONE’S STORY IS AS WELL. YOU WERE YOURSELF BULLIED AS A CHILD. >> AND THE CRAZY THING I WAS REALIZING IS WAS BULLIED FOR MY VOICE, MY CRY. THINK THIS. IT WAS SO LIKE, HI. AND LIKE, JUST BE OH MY GOSH.

>> AND THINK I WAS GOING TO CRY BEING SO LIKE HIGH. PEOPLE WOULD BELIEVE ME ABOUT THAT. AND NOW IT’S LIKE MY SUPERPOWER AND IT’S LIKE, THAT’S JUST SO COOL. WHY DO YOU YOUR HEART WAS SET ON BEING A TEACHER. WHAT IS IT ABOUT BEING A TEACHER THAT YOU FELT CALLED TO?

I REMEMBER I TAUGHT A PRESCHOOL FOR KIDS WITH DISABILITIES, AND I WENT IN THINKING THAT I GOING TO CHANGE THEIR LIVES. I WAS GOING TO HELP. AND THEN THEY TRANSFORMED ME. THEY GAVE ME SO MUCH AND I WAS LIKE, I WANT TO DO THIS FOREVER. I WANT TO HELP KIDS.

I LOVE KIDS SO MUCH AND I LOVE TEACHING AND I’M SO PASSIONATE ABOUT IT. IT’S A JOY THAT, LIKE, SUSTAINS YOU NOT A FLEETING JOY. >> IT’S A JOY THAT YOU CAN CARRY WITH YOU TO SERVE KIDS. >> AND BIG THANKS FOR THIS HOUSEHOLD TO MISS. RACHEL, I’M SURE, EVEN FEELS

WHEREVER THE STORY IS WILL TAKE YOU THERE YOU’LL STREAMING ABC NEWS LIVE TODAY ON ABC NEWS LIVE GETTING OUT OF GAZA. FIVE AMERICAN AID WORKERS ENTER EGYPT AS THE BORDER FINALLY

OPENS. WE’LL TAKE YOU THERE. DONALD TRUMP JUNIOR TAKING THE STAND AS HIS BOSS AT HIS FATHER’S CIVIL FRAUD THREATENING THE FAMILY BUSINESS. WE’RE LIVE AT THE COURTHOUSE. GOOD AFTERNOON, EVERYONE. I’M KYRA PHILLIPS. TOP STORY THIS HOUR, HOWEVER, IS THE PALESTINIAN CHILDREN’S RELIEF FUND CONFIRMING. NOW TO ABC NEWS THAT FIVE

AMERICAN AID WORKERS ARE SAFE IN EGYPT AFTER AN EXCRUCIATING LONG WAIT AT THE RAFAH BORDER CROSSING GAZA. THOSE FAMILIES OF EMILY CALLAHAN AND BARBARA ZIND, RAMONA ACAMPORA, ALYSON GRECO AND SAMANTHA HUNT BREATHING A SIGH OF RELIEF AS THEY ARE ONE STEP CLOSER TO COMING HOME. AN ADDITIONAL 335 DUAL

NATIONALS AND FOREIGNERS HAVE ALSO CROSSED THE BORDER ALONG WITH 17 AMBULANCES CARRYING AT LEAST 76 INJURED GAZANS. ALL OF THIS COMING AFTER HAMAS CONTROLLED HEALTH MINISTRY SAYS THAT WAS THERE WAS A SECOND AIRSTRIKE THERE ON THE JABALYA REFUGEE CAMP. INES DE LA CUETARA JOINS US NOW FROM JERUSALEM WITH MORE.

SO INES, FIRST OF ALL, WHAT DO WE KNOW ABOUT THOSE WHO’VE CROSSED THE BORDER, INCLUDING THE FIVE U.S. AID WORKERS? HEY, CURIOUS, SOME REALLY GOOD NEWS THERE OUT OF ROSA ARAFA. THE RAFAH BORDER CROSSING WITH PEOPLE FINALLY BEING ALLOWED TO LEAVE GAZA AND CROSS INTO EGYPT.

THIS IS THE FIRST TIME THAT THE RAFAH BORDER CROSSING HAS OPENED UP TO PEOPLE SINCE OCTOBER 7TH AND A PRIORITY GIVEN TO THE CRITICALLY INJURED. SO LIKE YOU SAY, AT LEAST 76 CRITICALLY INJURED PEOPLE WERE ABLE TO LEAVE GAZA, HEAD INTO EGYPT. WE KNOW THAT THERE WERE AMBULANCES WAITING FOR THEM

ON THE OTHER SIDE OF THE BORDER FIELD HAVE ALSO BEEN SET UP. AS FAR AS FOREIGN NATIONALS, WE DO KNOW THAT OTHER FOREIGN NATIONALS WERE ALSO ALLOWED TO LEAVE, INCLUDING THOSE FIVE AMERICAN NGO WORKERS. THE LATEST NUMBERS WE GOT WERE IT WAS 335 FOREIGN NATIONALS HAD BEEN ALLOWED TO LEAVE.

THAT’S DOWN FROM THE 500 WE EXPECTED. SO WE’LL SEE IF THEY END UP MATCHING THAT 500 NUMBER. BUT AS OF YOU KNOW, JUST A FEW MOMENTS AGO, WE DID GET CONFIRMATION THAT 335 FOREIGN NATIONALS WERE ALLOWED TO LEAVE AND HUMANITARIAN AID ALSO GETTING IN. SO AN ADDITIONAL 51 AID TRUCKS

WERE ALLOWED TO GET INTO GAZA TODAY AS U.S. CONTINUES TO PUT PRESSURE ON ISRAEL TO ALLOW FOR MORE HUMANITARIAN AID TO GET IN. BUT AGAIN, KYRA, WE’VE TALKED ABOUT THIS. THESE TRUCKS JUST A DROP THE OCEAN IN TERMS OF WHAT IS NEEDED. PEOPLE IN GAZA ARE RUNNING OUT OF FOOD, FUEL, MEDICAL

SUPPLIES, WATER. AND IT USED TO BE THAT HUNDREDS TRUCKS EVERY DAY WOULD GO THROUGH THAT RAFAH CROSSING. SO 51 TRUCKS, YOU KNOW, GOOD NEWS, BUT STILL NOT ENOUGH IN TERMS WHAT IS ACTUALLY NEEDED. >> SO WHAT MORE ARE WE HEARING FROM EGYPTIAN AND COULD WE SEE OTHER PLAYERS, YOU THINK,

IN THE ARAB WORLD GET INVOLVED WITH REGARD TO TAKING IN REFUGEES? >> YES. SO INTERESTINGLY, QATAR IS, ACCORDING TO REUTERS, TRYING TO BROKER SOME KIND OF DEAL HERE, ISRAEL, HAMAS, EGYPT WITH U.S. COORDINATION TO ALLOW FOR LIMITED EVACUATIONS OUT OF GAZA. WELL, WE’LL HAVE TO SEE WHAT HAPPENS THERE.

IT’S UNLIKELY WE’LL SEE ANY TYPE OF MASS EVACUATIONS. THE EGYPTIANS HAVE SHOWN NO INDICATION THAT THEY’RE WILLING TO TAKE IN A MASSIVE NUMBERS OF PALESTINIAN REFUGEES FOR SEVERAL REASONS. SO ONE, OF COURSE, BEING RESOURCES THEY MAY NOT WANT TO HAVE TO DEAL WITH. HUNDREDS OF THOUSANDS, MILLIONS OF PALESTINIAN REFUGEES

ON EGYPTIAN TERRITORY TO BEING NATIONAL SECURITY. SO THE EGYPTIANS CONCERNED ABOUT POSSIBLY HAVING HAMAS MILITANTS POURING OUT OF GAZA, HAMAS SUPPORTERS INTO EGYPTIAN TERRITORY. AND THE THIRD REASON BEING THAT THEY DO NOT WANT TO BE SEEN AS AIDING IN ANY WAY THE RESETTLEMENT OF HUNDREDS OF THOUSANDS OF PALESTINIAN REFUGEES, BECAUSE

THAT ESSENTIALLY BE THE END OF THIS DREAM OF PALESTINIAN STATEHOOD, WHICH KNOW THAT EGYPT SUPPORTS. AND SAME GOES FOR JORDAN. SO UNLIKELY THAT JORDAN WILL BE WOULD BE WILLING TO TAKE IN ANY PALESTINIAN REFUGS AS WELL FOR THOSE SAME REASONS, KYRA. ALL RIGHT. WE ALSO SPOKE TO YESTERDAY

RIGHT AFTER THAT TRY STRIKE, RATHER, IN THE JABALYA REFUGEE CAMP. NOW WE’RE HEARING REPORTS OF A SECOND ONE. WHAT MORE CAN YOU TELL US ABOUT THAT? YEAH, SO THIS WOULD BE THE SECOND STRIKE ON THE JABALYA REFUGEE CAMP IN LESS THAN 24 HOURS. SO WE GOT NO CONFIRMATION FROM THE IDF.

THE IDF NOT COMMENTING YET ON THAT POSSIBLE SECOND STRIKE, BUT IT IS BEING REPORTED BY THE HAMAS RUN HEALTH MINISTRY. THEY’RE SAYING THAT TENS CIVILIANS MAY HAVE BEEN INJURED OR KILLED. WE ARE WAITING FOR EXACT NUMBERS THERE. BUT, YEAH, THIS COMES ON THE HEELS OF THAT MASSIVE BLAST.

WE SAW THOSE HORRIFIC IMAGES. THAT MASSIVE CRATER LEFT SURROUNDED BY MULTI-STORY BUILDINGS AND PEOPLE RUSHING. AND FROM THE SCENE, WE UNDERSTAND THAT AT LEAST 52 PEOPLE WERE KILLED IN THAT BLAST. AGAIN, ACCORDING TO THE HAMAS RUN HEALTH MINISTRY, THE IDF SAID THAT THAT EXPLOSION WAS LINKED TO THEM TO TAKE OUT

HAMAS MILITANTS. THEY WERE OPERATING OUT OF THIS REFUGEE CAMP, OUT OF TUNNELS BENEATH THE REFUGEE CAMP. BUT THIS IS ONE OF THE MOST DENSELY POPULATED AREAS IN GAZA. THIS IS THE LARGEST CAMP IN GAZA. AND SO THEY ARE, YOU KNOW, TAKING OUT IN THEIR PURSUIT OF THESE HAMAS MILITANTS. THEY DO SAY THAT.

ONE OF THE MILITANTS THEY TOOK OUT WAS A TOP HAMAS COMMANDER WHO THEY SAY ONE OF THE MASTERMINDS BEHIND THE OCTOBER 7TH TERROR ATTACK. SO WAITING FOR MORE INFORMATION ON THAT SECOND STRIKE. BUT IF CONFIRMED, IT WOULD BE THE SECOND STRIKE ON THIS DENSELY POPULATED AREAS IN LESS THAN 24 HOURS KYRA.

>> ALL RIGHT, INES DE LA CUETARA SARA, THANK YOU SO MUCH. WE’LL STAY IN CLOSE TOUCH. AND AS TENSIONS ESCALATE BETWEEN AND HAMAS, ORGANIZATIONS LIKE THE INTERNATIONAL COMMITTEE, THE RED CROSS ARE HELPING PEOPLE SUFFERING ON BOTH SIDES OF THIS. AND WE’RE NOT JUST TALKING ABOUT A THE RED CROSS IS ALSO

VITAL AGENCY WHEN IT COMES TO HUMANITARIAN HOSTAGE RELEASES. DIRECTOR GENERAL ROBERT MARDINI IS ON CAPITOL HILL. HE JOINS ME NOW. ROBERT, SO GOOD TO SEE YOU. AND WE WILL GET TO WHAT ARE DOING HERE IN D.C. AND ON THE HILL IN JUST A MOMENT. BUT FIRST, I JUST WANT TO GO

TO OUR REPORTING THAT WE KNOW AT LEAST 335 DUAL NATIONALS AND FOREIGNERS, FIVE U.S. AID WORKERS AND AT LEAST 76 INJURED GAZANS HAVE NOW CROSSED THE RAFAH BORDER INTO EGYPT. CAN YOU TELL US ANYTHING ABOUT THEIR OVERALL CONDITIONS, WHAT YOU KNOW, AND DO YOU BELIEVE THAT THERE WILL BE

MORE THAT WILL BE ABLE TO CROSS OVER? THANK YOU FOR HAVING ME. WE WE HAVEN’T BEEN INVOLVED AT A CRC IN THIS IN THIS OPERATION, BUT WELCOME ANY MOVE ANY CONCRETE MEASURE TO ALLEVIATE SUCH AS EVACUATING CRITICALLY INJURED, TO GET MEDICAL TREATMENT AND THEY SHOULD BE AS ADVOCATED FROM

THE VERY BEGINNING, A VERY FLUID THE FLOW AND ROTATION OF STAFF IN AND OUT FROM GAZA IN TO ENSURE A MEANINGFUL HUMANITARIAN RESPONSE ON THE GROUND. >> SO TELL US MORE THEN HOW THE ICRC WORKING TO GET MORE CIVILIANS OVER THE RAFAH BORDER AND EGYPT RIGHT NOW.

WELL, FOR NOW, OUR FOCUS IS TO PROVIDE AND TO SUPPORT EXISTING SERVICES IN THE GAZA STRIP, STARTING WITH THE PROVISION OF MEDICAL SERVICES IN THE EXISTING HOSPITALS THAT ARE REALLY TODAY THE BREAKING POINT. THE NURSES DOCTORS ARE WORKING FOUR SEVEN AND ARE ABSORBING UNPRECEDENTED LEVEL OF MASS CASUALTIES.

AND I THINK THE PRIORITY FOR US AND OUR TEAMS, THE GROUND IS TO PROVIDE THOSE HOSPITALS WITH THE BADLY NEEDED SURGICAL EQUIPMENT, I.V. FLUID, ANESTHETICS ANTIBIOTICS TO SAVE LIVES WHERE THE WOUNDED ARE TODAY. THAT’S OUR FOCUS. ABLE TO GET A LOT OF THOSE SUPPLIES IN. TELL ME WHAT BIGGEST CHALLENGES

HAVE BEEN FOR YOU AT THIS MOMENT? I MEAN, THE BIG CHALLENGE IS, IS, OF COURSE GETTING ENOUGH AID IN AT THE LEVEL OF THE NEEDS. AND TODAY, THE VERY FEW TRUCKS, 150 TRUCKS SO FAR BEING ABLE TO ENTER INTO THE GAZA STRIP IS ONLY A SMALL FRACTION

OF WHAT IS NEEDED AND MUCH MORE NEEDS TO BE DONE ON THAT FRONT. WE NEED MUCH MORE STAFF TO BE ABLE TO WORK. WE ALSO NEED REGULAR HUMANITARIAN POLICIES TO ALLOW FIRST AND TO PROVIDE RESPITE TO THE CIVILIAN POPULATION, BUT ALSO TO ALLOW HUMANITARIAN WORKERS SUCH AS THE ICRC,

THE PALESTINE RED CRESCENT SOCIETY AND OTHER AGENCIES TO PROVIDE LIFESAVING SERVICES INSIDE. THE STRIP WHERE 2 MILLION PEOPLE LIVE UNDER CONDITIONS. AND ROBERT, WE WILL NEVER FORGET THOSE FIRST HOSTAGES FROM CHICAGO WHEN THEY WERE. YOUR ORGANIZATION PLAYED A CRUCIAL ROLE IN TO TO BRING THEM BACK SAFE.

TELL US MORE ABOUT THAT MOMENT WHAT IT WAS LIKE FOR YOU AND AND WHAT YOUR STAFF DID THAT THAT JUST MADE YOU SO PROUD IN THAT MOMENT AS THE WORLD WATCHED WE WERE ALL PROUD OF THAT MOMENT. >> LET ME START BY SAYING THAT THE PLIGHT OF THE HOSTAGES AND THEIR FAMILIES REMAINS

OUR TOP PRIORITY. WE’RE DOING EVERYTHING WE CAN TO BE ABLE TO VISIT THOSE HOSTAGES TO ENSURE AND TO CHECK ON THEIR HEALTH, TO ENSURE THAT THEY GET MEDICINES AND THAT THEY HAVE THE OPPORTUNITY TO EXCHANGE MESSAGES WITH THEIR FAMILIES. AND, OF COURSE, WE STAND READY TO FACILITATE MORE RELEASES

AS SOON AS THE NEGOTIATED AGREEMENTS ARE CONCLUDED BETWEEN THE PARTIES. SO WE WERE ABLE SO FAR TO FACILITATE THE RELEASE FOUR HOSTAGES AND THOSE ARE YOU MOMENTS WHERE YOU SEE THAT IN THE WORST OF CIRCUMSTANCES THERE ARE STILL MOMENTS OF HUMANITY WHERE PARTIES AGREE ON, ON, ON CERTAIN THINGS

THAT WILL BRING RELIEF TO CIVILIANS, TO THEIR FAMILIES AND MY COLLEAGUES BEARING WITNESS AND FACILITATING THIS OPERATION WAS REALLY VERY MOVING. AND THERE WERE VERY PROUD AND WE ARE VERY PROUD TO BE ABLE TO ACHIEVE THIS TYPE OF OPERATIONS AS WE ARE PROUD OF ANY EFFORTS WE ARE DOING TO ALLEVIATE THE HUMAN

SUFFERING THAT IS UNFOLDING IN THE GAZA STRIP TODAY. >> WELL, I THINK IT’S FAIR TO SAY WE ALL FEEL THAT WAY. AND WHEN YOU FACILITATE THESE TYPES OF RELEASES, ROBERT, YOU KNOW, YOU A VERY DELICATE DANCE OF REMAINING NEUTRAL, HAVING TO REMAIN NEUTRAL, YOU HAVE TO STAY IN CONTACT WITH HAMAS.

TELL US HOW YOU DO THAT WITH TRUST AND CONFIDENCE AND HOW YOU MAKE THE REQUESTS THAT YOU DO WHILE KEEPING THINGS CIVIL AND SAFE. >> WELL, THAT’S A VERY IMPORTANT POINT. AND OUR LICENSE TO OPERATE IN WAR ZONES IS REALLY BASED THIS TRUST BUILDING WITH ALL PARTIES TO THE CONFLICT.

THE STATES, OF COURSE, BUT ALSO NON-STATE ARMED GROUPS, INCLUDING HAMAS. AND THIS IS ALSO ABOUT BUILDING TRUST AND EQUITY. OF COURSE, NOT AGREEING TO EVERYTHING, HAVING THE ROBUST CONVERSATION IN PRIVATE. BUT THIS THIS IS ABSOLUTELY CRITICAL TO ENSURE AND ENABLE AN IMPARTIAL AND NEUTRAL HUMANITARIAN ACTIONS TO ENABLE

THAT MY COLLEAGUES ARE ABLE TO VISIT, TO ENABLE THAT WE CAN CROSS FRONTLINES, DELIVER MOST NEEDED HUMANITARIAN AID. AND THIS DIALOG IS STILL ONGOING TODAY. IT IS IT IS HARD. IT’S TAKING PLACE, OF COURSE, WITH THE ISRAELI OFFICIALS AND WITH HAMAS. AND WE’RE ALWAYS TRYING TO MOVE THE NEEDLE SO THAT THE CURSOR

MOVES TOWARDS THE OBLIGATION OF PARTIES TO THE TO TAKE PRECAUTIONS AND TO PROTECT CIVILIANS FROM HARM RATHER THAN TO FOCUS EXCLUSIVELY MILITARY OBJECTIVES. AND ROBERT, I THINK IT’S SO IMPORTANT TO FOLLOW UP ON ON MORE PERSPECTIVE ON HOW YOU DO THAT, BECAUSE AS YOU KNOW, THIS IS SUCH A SENSITIVE, FRAGILE

SITUATION AND THERE’S MUCH HATE THAT WE ARE WITNESSING AROUND THE WORLD. THIS IS FUELED BY HATE. YET YOU CAN REMAIN NEUTRAL AND CALM AND ACTUALLY GET TOGETHER TALKING AND AND BRINGING HOSTAGES BACK SAFELY, WHICH IS TRULY REMARKABLE. COULD YOU JUST GIVE US INSIGHT AS AS VIEWERS, HOW DO THAT HOW

YOU MANAGE TO DO THAT WHEN THIS THIS THIS IS SUCH A VOLATILE SITUATION? WE WATCHED PEOPLE KIDNAP, BUT WE HEAR OF THEM BEING TORTURED. WE HEAR OF THEM BEING KILLED. YET YOU ARE ABLE TO FACILITATE CONVERSATIONS WITH BOTH PARTIES AND REMAIN NEUTRAL. HOW DO YOU DO THAT? IT’S ABOUT CALLING

ON THE HUMANITY THAT EXISTS IN EVERYONE, INCLUDING PARTIES TO THE CONFLICT, INCLUDING AT A TIME WHERE EMOTIONS ARE RUNNING HIGH, WHERE WHERE OUTRAGE IS UNDERSTANDABLE ON BOTH SIDES. BUT AND THE TOOL FOR THIS IS ARE THE GENEVA CONVENTIONS. THOSE HAVE BEEN REALLY FOLLOWED ,RATIFIED, ADOPTED BY ALL COUNTRIES ON EARTH PRECISELY

TO ENSURE THAT IN THE WORST OF CIRCUMSTANCE, IN THE DARKEST MOMENTS OF HUMANITY STILL THERE IS THE MINIMUM TO ALLEVIATE HUMAN SUFFERING IN WAR. AND THERE ARE VERY PRACTICAL RULES. AND WHEN THOSE RULES ARE, THEY REDUCE HUMANITARIAN NEEDS, THEY ALLEVIATE. AND THIS IS WHAT WE DO EVERY

DAY IN MORE THAN 100 EXISTING ARMED CONFLICT ACROSS THE GLOBE, INCLUDING NOW IN ISRAEL AND THE GAZA STRIP, AS WELL. IN THOSE DARKEST MOMENTS, YOU DEFINITELY DO BRING LIGHT. THE RED CROSS IS A GIFT TO ALL OF US. DIRECTOR GENERAL ROBERT MARDINI SO GLAD OR MARDINI SO GLAD

TO HAVE YOU WITH US TODAY. AND KEEP US POSTED ON EVERYTHING THAT. YOU ARE ACCOMPLISHING THERE ON THE HILL AND HERE IN D.C. WE APPRECIATE YOU. THANK YOU. THANK YOU FOR HAVING ME. >> AND BACK HERE AT HOME, DONALD TRUMP JUNIOR SET TO TESTIFY IN HIS FATHER’S FRAUD TRIAL. DON JR.

NAMED AS A DEFENDANT IN THE $250 MILLION LAWSUIT BROUGHT BY THE NEW YORK AG’S. AND IT ACCUSES HIM AND HIS BROTHER ERIC OF KNOWINGLY PARTICIPATED IN A SCHEME TO INFLATE THEIR FATHER’S NET WORTH SO THEY COULD OBTAIN BETTER BENEFITS. ABC INVESTIGATIVE PRODUCER AND REPORTER OLIVIA OUTSIDE COURT IN NEW YORK THERE

WITH MORE. OLIVIA, WHAT’S THE LATEST FROM COURT TODAY? WELL, KYRA, SEEMS WERE STILL A BIT A WAYS AWAY FROM WHEN DON JR IS GOING TO TESTIFY, WHICH, OF COURSE, EVERYONE HERE IS WAITING FOR. THIS MORNING, WE HAVE SPENT THE DAY LISTENING TO TESTIMONY FROM ONE OF THE STATE’S EXPERT

WITNESSES STATE JUST WRAPPED UP WITH HIM. AND NOW IT’S DONALD TRUMP’S ATTORNEY’S TURN TO CROSS-EXAMINE HIM. AND THEY HAVE ESTIMATED THAT THEY NEED 2 TO 3 HOURS TO CROSS-EXAMINE THIS WITNESS HERE, A MUCH TO THE SORT OF IRE OF THE JUDGE WHO ESSENTIALLY HAS BEEN ASKING THEM TO SPEED

IT ALONG, SAYING THAT THERE IS NO REASON IT SHOULD TAKE 2 TO 3 HOURS AND ESSENTIALLY TELLING THE DEFENSE ATTORNEY ONE POINT THAT THEY WERE TURNING WHAT SHOULD BE ONE QUESTION INTO FOUR QUESTIONS. SO ALREADY A LITTLE BIT OF HEAT FLYING HERE. THE JUDGE IS STILL CLEARLY

TRYING TO MOVE IT ALONG TO GET TO THAT WITNESS EVERYONE IS WAITING FOR HERE AT DON JR. SO MOVING ALONG AND LUNCH BREAK NOW. WHEN WE COME BACK, WE’LL SEE MORE TESTIMONY FROM THE EXPERT AND THEN ONCE HE IS DONE, THEN WE’LL GET DON JUNIOR ON THE STAND.

>> SO WHAT EXACTLY HAS DONALD JUNIOR BEEN DOING SINCE ALL OF THIS HAS BEGUN? AND JUST GOING BACK TO HIS INVOLVEMENT IN THE TRUMP ORGANIZATION AND WE HAVEN’T HEARD MUCH FROM HIM SINCE THIS ALL BEGAN. WE HAVEN’T EXCEPT SORT OF ON SOCIAL MEDIA LIKE WE DO

A NUMBER OF MEMBERS OF THE TRUMP FAMILY. BUT REMEMBER, DON JUNIOR IS ONE OF THE TOP EXECUTIVES AT THE TRUMP ORG, AND HE STEPPED IN ESSENTIALLY ONE OF THE LEADERS OF THE COMPANY WHEN HIS FATHER, DONALD, BECAME PRESIDENT OF THE UNITED STATES. AND STILL TO THIS DAY HERE, HE HOLDS A LEADERSHIP POSITION

AT THE COMPANY. SO HE IS CERTAIN TO FACE QUESTIONS ABOUT WHAT HIS ROLE WAS THEN, SPECIFICALLY SOME OF THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS THAT THE ATTORNEY GENERAL SAYS WERE FRAUDULENT AND THAT WERE INTENTIONALLY FRAUDULENT IN ORDER TO GAIN THE FAVORABLE LOANS AND THE FAVORABLE TAX BREAK. SO I’M SURE HE’LL FACE

QUESTIONS ABOUT THAT HE’LL FACE QUESTIONS ABOUT WHAT SPECIFICALLY HE SAID WITH HIS AND CREATING THOSE STATEMENTS, BECAUSE, REMEMBER, HE’S NOT JUST AN EXECUTIVE HERE. HE IS A TRUMP FAMILY MEMBER. SO REALLY, YOU DON’T GET MORE OF AN INSIDER IN THE COMPANY AND IN THE FAMILY THAN HIM.

AND WHAT DO YOU THINK WE CAN EXPECT NEXT IN THIS CASE? WHO’S GOING TO TAKE THE STAND? AND I GUESS WE COULD HEAR FROM MORE FAMILY MEMBERS. ABSOLUTELY. DON IS GOING TO SET OFF SORT OF A ONE AFTER ANOTHER WHO’S WHO? THE TRUMP FAMILY. ONCE HE’S DONE HIS BROTHER

ERIC IS GOING TAKE THE STAND. THAT’S GOING TO GIVE WAY TO DONALD TRUMP HIMSELF, TAKING THE STAND ON MONDAY. AND THEN FINALLY, IVANKA, SHE HAD TRIED TO GET OUT OF TESTIFYING, BUT THE JUDGE ULTIMATELY RULED THAT SHE DID HAVE TO DO SO. WE’RE GETTING INTO NOW WHAT IS

ESSENTIALLY ONE OF THE MOST CRITICAL WEEKS IN THE ATTORNEY GENERAL’S CASE TO HEAR FROM THE FOUR TRUMP FAMILY MEMBERS THEMSELVES. AFTER WEEKS OF TESTIMONY ABOUT FINANCIAL DOCUMENTS FROM BANKERS, INSURANCE MEMBERS, WE ARE NOW GETTING INTO THE CENTRAL CASE THAT TRUMPS AND THAT IS CERTAINLY WHAT EVERYONE IS WAITING TO HEAR. ALL RIGHT.

AND ON TOP OF ALL THAT, THE DEPARTMENT OF EDUCATION ADMITS THAT ROUGHLY 830,000 PEOPLE MISSED THEIR FIRST

PAYMENTS AFTER A LOAN SERVICE FAILED TO SEND OUT TIMELY NOTICES TO MORE THAN 2 MILLION BORROWERS. >> ALSO, 21,000 PEOPLE RECEIVED INCORRECT BILLS. OH, AND ADDING EVEN MORE SALT TO THE WOUND. 16,000 MORE PEOPLE RECEIVE BILLS. DESPITE THE BIDEN ADMINISTRATION CANCELING THEIR DEBT. >> FOR MORE, LET’S BRING IN OUR ABC NEWS CORRESPONDENT

ELIZABETH SCHULZE TO TALK ABOUT A HOT MESS. WHAT ARE THEY GOING DO TO FIX IT? ELIZABETH RIGHT HERE. IN SOME WAYS, THESE GLITCHES AREN’T UNEXPECTED GIVEN THE FACT THAT THERE WAS THIS MORE THAN THREE YEAR PAUSE ON THOSE FEDERAL STUDENT LOAN PAYMENTS FROM THE GOVERNMENT. AND THEN DURING THAT TIME,

20 MILLION PEOPLE SAW THEIR LOANS SWITCH OVER, LOAN SERVICER SWITCH OVER. PART OF THE REASON WHY IS SOME OF THE LOAN SERVICERS DOING THE PANDEMIC WENT OUT OF BUSINESS. SO THIS KIND OF DELUGE OF PEOPLE COMING BACK ONLINE AND MAKING THOSE PAYMENTS AFTER THREE YEARS, IT WAS EXPECTED BE A LITTLE BIT CHAOTIC.

BUT WHAT WE’VE LEARNED IS THAT A TOTAL OF 1.3 MILLION PEOPLE ARE SUFFERING FROM SOME SORT OF BILLING. THEY WERE NOTIFIED THE WRONG AMOUNT OF THEIR PAYMENTS. THEY DIDN’T GET THEIR PAYMENTS AT ALL AND THEY DIDN’T GET THEIR OR THEY DIDN’T GET THE NOTIFICATION TIME. SO WHAT THE GOVERNMENT

IS TRYING TO DO NOW, AND THIS IS A KEY STEP THAT THE ADMINISTRATION HAS ANNOUNCED, KNOWING THAT THIS MIGHT BE A LITTLE BIT CHAOTIC COMING BACK IS THERE’S A ONE YEAR GRACE PERIOD WHERE IF YOU’RE A BORROWER WITH STUDENT, FEDERAL STUDENT, AND YOU MISS A PAYMENT OVER THE NEXT YEAR,

YOU WILL NOT BE DELINQUENT. NOW, IMPORTANTLY, THOUGH, DURING THAT TIME, YOU’RE STILL GOING TO INTEREST GOING UP. YOU’RE STILL GOING TO SEE YOUR BALANCE ON YOUR LOANS GO UP. SO IT’S NOT LIKE THIS IS JUST THE FREEZE HAS BEEN EXTENDED FOR ANOTHER YEAR, BUT IT DOES GIVE A LITTLE BIT OF BREATHING

ROOM TO TRY TO SORT THESE ISSUES OUT. AND WE’RE FINDING THAT THAT BREATHING ROOM ISN’T JUST HELPING THE BORROWERS, BUT IT’S ALSO HELPING THESE SERVICERS WHO HAVE PLENTY OF THEIR OWN ISSUES, TOO KYRA. ALL RIGHT. SO THIS IS THE FIRST INSTANCE, RIGHT, OF THE GOVERNMENT WITHHOLDING PAYMENT FROM A LOAN SERVICER.

>> SO HOW UNUSUAL IS THIS PROTOCOL? IT’S PRETTY UNUSUAL. AND THE SERVICE THAT WE’RE TALKING ABOUT HERE IS MAHELA. A LOT OF PEOPLE WITH STUDENT LOANS WILL KNOW NAME VERY WELL, AND THEY’LL HAVE PROBABLY HAD THEIR OWN ISSUES GETTING THROUGH TO THE COMPANY. AND WE’VE WE’VE BEEN HEARING

NOT JUST SOME OF THESE BILLING ERRORS, GETTING A PERSON ON THE OTHER SIDE ON THE PHONE, GETTING IN TOUCH WITH THEM ABOUT THESE ERRORS IN THE FIRST PLACE IS PROVING TO BE DIFFICULT. SO WHAT THE EDUCATION IS DOING IS IT’S BASICALLY USING ITS LEVERAGE. IT HAS THIS CONTRACT, MAHELA,

LIKE IT DOES WITH OTHER LOAN SERVICERS. AND THE GOVERNMENT IS, HEY, GET YOUR ACT TOGETHER, WE DO BUSINESS WITH YOU AND WE’RE SENDING YOU A WARNING THAT YOU NEED TO GET IN LINE AND THE EDUCATION DEPARTMENT IS SAYING THIS SHOULD SEND A STRONG MESSAGE NOT JUST TO MAHELA

WHICH BY THE WAY, HAS NOT RESPONDED TO A REQUEST FOR COMMENT, BUT TO SOME OF THE OTHER SERVICERS FOR THEM TO GET THEIR ACT IN LINE TO KYRA. SO THE BIDEN ADMINISTRATION IS PLANNING ANOTHER STAB AT STUDENT LOAN FORGIVENESS UNDER THE HIGHER ACT. DO YOU HAVE ANYTHING MORE ON

THIS PROPOSAL, WHAT IT WOULD ENTAIL AND WILL IT WORK? >> WELL, WE HAVE LEARNED THAT WEEK THE EDUCATION DEPARTMENT IS CONVENING A MEETING WITH EXPERTS, WITH DEBT RELIEF ADVOCATES TO TRY TO FIGURE OUT A PLAN B FOR THIS BROADER STUDENT LOAN DEBT CANCELLATION. AND, OF COURSE, IT’S A PLAN

B BECAUSE PRESIDENT BIDEN PROPOSED WIDE RANGING PLAN THAT WOULD HAVE CANCELED UP TO $20,000 IN STUDENT LOAN DEBT FOR MILLIONS OF BORROWERS. BUT THAT PLAN WAS STRUCK DOWN BY THE SUPREME COURT. TYPICALLY, THIS PROCESS WOULD TAKE MORE THAN A YEAR. IT’S GOING TO TAKE SOME TIME

FOR THEM TO FIGURE OUT HOW TO MAKE THIS HAPPEN THROUGH THE HIGHER EDUCATION ACT. BUT THE REALITY THERE IS A POLITICAL PRESSURE HERE. THIS IS AN ISSUE THAT THE PRESIDENT HAS CAMPAIGNED ON AND THEY’RE TRYING TO EXPEDITE THIS AS FAST AS THEY CAN. ALL RIGHT, ELIZABETH SCHULZE, THANK YOU SO MUCH.

>> I LOVE THAT SO MUCH. WEEKENDS ON ABC NEWS LIVE, ABC NEWS AMERICA’S NUMBER ONE NEWS SOURCE. >> TODAY ON ABC NEWS LIVE GETTING OUT OF GAZA FIVE AMERICAN AID WORKERS ENTER EGYPT AS THE RAFAH BORDER FINALLY OPENS. WE’LL TAKE YOU THERE. DONALD TRUMP JR. TAKING THE STAND AS HIS BOSS

AT HIS FATHER’S CIVIL FRAUD TRIAL, THREATENING THE FAMILY BUSINESS. WE’RE LIVE AT THE COURTHOUSE. GOOD AFTERNOON, EVERYONE. I’M KYRA PHILLIPS. OUR TOP STORY THIS HOUR, WHOEVER HAS THE PALESTINIAN CHILDREN’S RELIEF FUND CONFIRMING NOW TO ABC NEWS, FIVE AMERICAN AID WORKERS ARE SAFE IN EGYPT AFTER EXCRUCIATING LONG WAIT AT THE

RAFAH BORDER CROSSING IN GAZA. THOSE FAMILIES OF EMILY CALLAHAN, BARBARA ZIND, RAMONA ALISON GRECO AND SAMANTHA HUNT ALL BREATHING A SIGH OF RELIEF AS THEY ARE ONE STEP CLOSER TO COMING. AN ADDITIONAL 335 DUAL NATIONALS AND FOREIGNERS ALSO CROSSED THE BORDER, ALONG WITH 17 AMBULANCES CARRYING AT LEAST 76 INJURED GAZANS.

ALL OF THIS COMING THE HAMAS CONTROLLED HEALTH MINISTRY SAYS THERE WAS THERE WAS A SECOND AIRSTRIKE THERE ON THE JABALYA REFUGEE CAMP TODAY. INES DE LA CUETARA JOINS US NOW FROM JERUSALEM WITH MORE. SO, FIRST OF ALL, WHAT DO WE KNOW ABOUT THOSE WHO’VE CROSSED THE BORDER, THE FIVE U.S. AID WORKERS?

>> HEY, KYRA. SO SOME REALLY GOOD NEWS THERE OUT OF ROSA ARAFA, THE RAFAH BORDER CROSSING WITH PEOPLE FINALLY BEING ALLOWED TO LEAVE GAZA AND CROSS INTO EGYPT. THIS IS THE FIRST TIME THAT THE RAFAH BORDER CROSSING HAS OPENED UP TO PEOPLE SINCE OCTOBER SEVENTH AND PRIORITY WAS GIVEN TO THE CRITICALLY INJURED.

SO LIKE YOU SAY, AT LEAST 76 CRITICALLY INJURED PEOPLE WERE ABLE TO LEAVE GAZA HEAD INTO EGYPT. WE KNOW THAT THERE WERE AMBULANCES WAITING FOR THEM ON THE OTHER SIDE OF THE BORDER FIELD. HOSPITALS HAVE ALSO BEEN SET UP AS FAR AS NATIONALS, WE DO KNOW THAT OTHER FOREIGN NATIONALS

WERE ALSO ALLOWED TO LEAVE, INCLUDING THOSE FIVE AMERICAN NGO WORKERS. THE LATEST NUMBERS WE GOT, IT WAS 335 FOREIGN NATIONALS HAD BEEN ALLOWED TO LEAVE. THAT’S DOWN FROM THE 500 WE EXPECTED. SO WE’LL SEE IF THEY END UP MATCHING THAT 500 NUMBER. BUT AS OF YOU KNOW, JUST A FEW

MOMENTS AGO, WE DID GET CONFIRMATION THAT 335 FOREIGN NATIONALS WERE ALLOWED LEAVE AND HUMANITARIAN AID ALSO GETTING IN. SO AN ADDITIONAL ONE AID TRUCKS WERE ALLOWED TO GET INTO GAZA TODAY AS THE U.S. CONTINUES TO PUT PRESSURE ON ISRAEL TO ALLOW FOR MORE HUMANITARIAN AID. GET IN. BUT AGAIN, KYRA, WE’VE TALKED

ABOUT THIS. THESE TRUCKS JUST A DROP IN THE OCEAN IN TERMS OF WHAT IS NEEDED. PEOPLE IN GAZA ARE RUNNING OUT OF FOOD, FUEL MEDICAL SUPPLIES, WATER. AND IT USED TO BE THAT HUNDREDS OF TRUCKS DAY WOULD GO THROUGH THAT RAFAH CROSSING. SO 51 TRUCKS. YOU KNOW, GOOD, BUT STILL NOT

ENOUGH IN TERMS OF WHAT IS ACTUALLY NEEDED. >> SO WHAT MORE ARE WE HEARING FROM EGYPTIAN OFFICIALS AND COULD WE SEE PLAYERS, YOU THINK, IN THE ARAB WORLD HERE GET INVOLVED WITH REGARD TO TAKING IN REFUGEES? >> YES. SO INTERESTINGLY, QATAR IS, ACCORDING TO REUTERS, TRYING

TO BROKER SOME KIND OF DEAL HERE BETWEEN ISRAEL, HAMAS, EGYPT WITH U.S. COORDINATION TO ALLOW FOR LIMITED EVACUATIONS OUT OF GAZA. WE’LL HAVE TO SEE WHAT HAPPENS THERE. UNLIKELY WE’LL SEE ANY TYPE OF MASS EVACUATIONS. THE EGYPTIANS HAVE NO INDICATION THAT THEY’RE WILLING TO TAKE IN, YOU KNOW, OF A

MASSIVE NUMBERS OF PALESTINIAN REFUGEES FOR SEVERAL REASONS. SO ONE, OF COURSE, RESOURCES THEY MAY NOT WANT TO HAVE TO DEAL WITH, YOU KNOW, HUNDREDS OF THOUSANDS, MILLIONS OF PALESTINIAN REFUGEES ON EGYPTIAN TO BEING NATIONAL SECURITY. SO ARE THE EGYPTIANS CONCERNED ABOUT HAVING HAMAS MILITANTS POURING OUT OF GAZA? HAMAS SUPPORTERS INTO EGYPTIAN TERRITORY?

AND THE THIRD REASON BEING THAT THEY DO NOT WANT TO BE SEEN AS AIDING IN ANY WAY THE RESETTLEMENT OF HUNDREDS OF THOUSANDS OF PALESTINIAN REFUGEES, BECAUSE THAT WOULD ESSENTIALLY BE THE END OF THIS DREAM OF PALESTINIAN STATEHOOD, WHICH WE KNOW THAT EGYPT SUPPORTS. AND SAME GOES FOR JORDAN.

SO UNLIKELY THAT JORDAN WILL BE WOULD BE WILLING TAKE IN ANY PALESTINIAN REFUGEES AS WELL FOR THOSE SAME REASONS, KYRA. ALL RIGHT. WE ALSO SPOKE TO RIGHT AFTER THAT DEVASTATING TRY STRIKE IN THE JABALYA REFUGEE CAMP. NOW WE’RE HEARING REPORTS OF SECOND ONE. WHAT MORE CAN YOU TELL US ABOUT THAT?

>> YEAH, SO THIS WOULD BE THE SECOND STRIKE ON THE JABALYA REFUGEE CAMP IN LESS THAN 24 HOURS. SO WE GOT NO CONFIRMATION FROM THE IDF. IDF NOT COMMENTING YET ON THAT POSSIBLE SECOND STRIKE, BUT IT IS BEING REPORTED BY THE HAMAS RUN HEALTH MINISTRY. THEY’RE SAYING THAT TENS

OF CIVILIANS MAY HAVE BEEN INJURED OR KILLED. WE ARE WAITING FOR EXACT NUMBERS THERE. BUT, YEAH, THIS COMES ON THE HEELS OF THAT MASSIVE BLAST YESTERDAY, SAW THOSE HORRIFIC IMAGES, THAT MASSIVE CRATER LEFT THERE BY MULTI-STORY BUILDINGS AND PEOPLE RUSHING TO AND FROM THE SCENE. WE UNDERSTAND THAT AT LEAST

52 PEOPLE WERE KILLED IN THAT. AGAIN, ACCORDING TO THE HAMAS RUN HEALTH MINISTRY, THE IDF SAID THAT THAT EXPLOSION WAS LINKED TO THEM TRYING TO TAKE OUT HAMAS. THEY WERE OPERATING OUT OF THIS REFUGEE CAMP, OUT OF TUNNELS BENEATH THE REFUGEE CAMP. BUT THIS IS ONE OF THE MOST

DENSELY POPULATED AREAS IN GAZA. THIS IS THE LARGEST REFUGEE IN GAZA. AND SO THEY ARE, YOU KNOW, TAKING OUT CIVILIANS IN THEIR PURSUIT OF THESE HAMAS MILITANTS. THEY DO SAY THAT ONE OF THE MILITANTS THEY TOOK OUT WAS A TOP HAMAS COMMANDER WHO THEY SAY WAS ONE OF THE MASTERMINDS

BEHIND THE OCTOBER 7TH TERROR ATTACK. SO WAITING FOR MORE INFORMATION ON THAT SECOND STRIKE. BUT IF CONFIRMED, IT WOULD BE THE SECOND STRIKE ON THIS DENSELY POPULATED IN LESS THAN 24 HOURS KYRA. ALL RIGHT, INES DE LA CUETARA THANK YOU SO MUCH. WE’LL STAY IN CLOSE TOUCH. AND AS TENSIONS ESCALATE

BETWEEN ISRAEL AND HAMAS, ORGANIZATIONS LIKE THE INTERNATIONAL COMMITTEE OF THE RED CROSS ARE HELPING PEOPLE SUFFERING ON BOTH SIDES OF THIS CONFLICT, WE’RE NOT JUST TALKING ABOUT AID. THE RED CROSS IS ALSO A VITAL AGENCY WHEN IT COMES TO HUMANITARIAN HOSTAGE RELEASES. DIRECTOR ROBERT MARDINI IS ON CAPITOL HILL. HE JOINS ME NOW.

ROBERT SO GOOD TO SEE YOU. AND WE WILL GET TO WHAT YOU ARE DOING HERE IN D.C. AND ON THE HILL IN JUST A MOMENT. BUT FIRST, I JUST WANT TO GO TO OUR REPORTING THAT WE KNOW AT LEAST 335 DUAL NATIONALS AND FOREIGNERS FIVE U.S. AID WORKERS AND AT LEAST 76 INJURED

GAZANS HAVE CROSSED THE RAFAH BORDER INTO EGYPT. CAN YOU TELL US ANYTHING ABOUT THEIR OVERALL CONDITIONS ,WHAT YOU KNOW, AND DO YOU BELIEVE THAT THERE WILL BE MORE THAT BE ABLE TO CROSS OVER? >> THANK YOU FOR HAVING ME. WELL, WE HAVEN’T BEEN INVOLVED AT IN THIS IN THIS OPERATION,

BUT WE WELCOME ANY MOVE, ANY CONCRETE MEASURE TO ALLEVIATE SUFFERING SUCH AS EVACUATING CRITICALLY INJURED PEOPLE TO GET MEDICAL TREATMENT. AND THEY SHOULD BE, AS WE ADVOCATED THE VERY BEGINNING, A VERY FLUID THE FLOW AND ROTATION OF STAFF IN AND OUT FROM GAZA IN ORDER TO ENSURE A MEANINGFUL HUMANITARIAN RESPONSE

ON THE GROUND. SO TELL US MORE THEN HOW THE ICRC IS WORKING TO MORE CIVILIANS OVER THE RAFAH BORDER AND INTO EGYPT NOW? >> WELL, FOR NOW, OUR FOCUS REALLY IS TO PROVIDE AND TO SUPPORT EXISTING SERVICES IN THE GAZA STRIP, STARTING WITH THE PROVISION, MEDICAL SERVICES IN THE EXISTING

HOSPITALS THAT ARE REALLY TODAY THE BREAKING POINT. THE NURSES DOCTORS ARE WORKING FOUR SEVEN AND ARE ABSORBING UNPRECEDENTED LEVEL OF MASS CASUALTIES. AND I THINK THE PRIORITY FOR US AND OUR TEAMS, THE GROUND IS TO PROVIDE THOSE HOSPITALS WITH THE BADLY NEEDED SURGICAL EQUIPMENT, I.V. FLUID, ANESTHETICS, ANTIBIOTICS, TICKS

TO SAVE LIVES WHERE THE WOUNDED ARE TODAY. >> THAT’S OUR FOCUS. ABLE GET A LOT OF THOSE SUPPLIES IN. TELL ME WHAT THE BIGGEST CHALLENGES BEEN FOR YOU AT THIS MOMENT. I MEAN, THE CHALLENGE IS, IS, OF COURSE, GETTING ENOUGH AID IN AT THE LEVEL OF THE NEEDS

AND TODAY, THE VERY FEW TRUCKS, 150 TRUCKS SO FAR BEING ABLE TO ENTER INTO THE GAZA IS ONLY A SMALL FRACTION OF WHAT IS NEEDED. AND MUCH MORE NEEDS TO BE DONE ON THAT FRONT. WE NEED MUCH MORE STAFF TO BE ABLE TO WORK. WE ALSO NEED REGULAR HUMANITARIAN POLICIES TO ALLOW

FIRST AND TO PROVIDE RESPITE TO THE CIVILIAN POPULATION, BUT ALSO ALLOW HUMANITARIAN WORKERS SUCH AS THE ICRC, THE PALESTINE RED CRESCENT SOCIETY AND OTHER AGENCIES TO PROVIDE LIFESAVING SERVICES INSIDE THE STRIP WHERE 2 MILLION PEOPLE LIVE UNDER TERRIBLE CONDITIONS. AND ROBERT, WE WILL NEVER FORGET THOSE HOSTAGES FROM

CHICAGO WHEN THEY WERE RELEASED. YOU’RE ORGANIZATION PLAYED A CRUCIAL ROLE IN THAT, TOO, TO BRING BACK SAFE. TELL US MORE ABOUT THAT MOMENT, WHAT IT WAS LIKE FOR YOU AND AND WHAT YOUR STAFF DID THAT THAT JUST MADE YOU SO PROUD IN THAT MOMENT AS THE WORLD WATCHED?

>> WE WERE ALL PROUD OF THAT MOMENT. LET ME START BY SAYING THAT THE PLIGHT OF HOSTAGES AND THEIR FAMILIES REMAINS OUR TOP PRIORITY. WE’RE DOING EVERYTHING WE CAN TO BE ABLE TO VISIT THOSE HOSTAGES TO ENSURE AND TO CHECK ON THEIR HEALTH, TO ENSURE THAT THEY GET MEDICINES AND THAT THEY HAVE

THE OPPORTUNITY TO EXCHANGE MESSAGES WITH THEIR FAMILIES. AND OF COURSE, WE STAND READY TO FACILITATE MORE RELEASES AS SOON AS THE NEGOTIATE AGREEMENTS ARE CONCLUDED BETWEEN THE PARTIES. SO WE WERE ABLE SO FAR TO FACILITATE THE RELEASE OF FOUR HOSTAGES. AND THOSE ARE, YOU KNOW, MOMENTS WHERE YOU SEE THAT IN

WORST OF CIRCUMSTANCES, THERE ARE STILL MOMENTS OF HUMANITY WHERE PARTIES AGREE ON ON ON ON CERTAIN THINGS THAT WILL BRING RELIEF TO CIVILIANS WITH THEIR FAMILIES. AND MY COLLEAGUES WITNESS AND FACILITATING THIS OPERATION WAS VERY MOVING AND THEY WERE VERY PROUD. AND WE ARE VERY PROUD TO BE ABLE TO ACHIEVE THIS TYPE

OF OPERATIONS AS WE ARE PROUD ANY EFFORTS WE ARE DOING TO ALLEVIATE THE HUMAN SUFFERING THAT IS UNFOLDING IN THE GAZA STRIP TODAY. WELL, I THINK IT’S FAIR TO SAY WE ALL FEEL THAT WAY. AND WHEN YOU FACILITATE THESE TYPES OF RELEASES, ROBERT, YOU KNOW, YOU HAVE A VERY DELICATE OF REMAINING NEUTRAL,

HAVING TO REMAIN NEUTRAL. YOU HAVE TO STAY IN CONTACT WITH HAMAS. TELL US HOW YOU THAT WITH TRUST AND CONFIDENCE AND HOW YOU THE REQUESTS THAT YOU DO WHILE KEEPING THINGS CIVIL AND SAFE? >> WELL, THAT’S A VERY IMPORTANT POINT. AND OUR LICENSE TO OPERATE IN WAR ZONES IS REALLY BASED

ON THIS TRUST BUILDING WITH ALL PARTIES TO THE CONFLICT. THE STATES, OF COURSE, BUT ALSO NON-STATE ARMED GROUPS, INCLUDING HAMAS. AND THIS IS ALSO ABOUT BUILDING TRUST AND EQUITY OF COURSE, NOT AGREEING TO EVERYTHING, HAVING THE ROBUST CONVERSATION IN PRIVATE. BUT THIS THIS DIALOG IS ABSOLUTELY CRITICAL.

ENSURE AND ENABLE AN IMPARTIAL AND NEUTRAL HUMANITARIAN ACTION TO ENABLE THAT. MY COLLEAGUES ARE ABLE TO VISIT DETAINEES TO ENABLE THAT WE CAN CROSS FRONTLINES AND DELIVER MOST NEEDED HUMANITARIAN AID. AND THIS DIALOG IS STILL ONGOING TODAY. IT IS IT IS HARD. IT’S TAKING PLACE, OF COURSE, WITH ISRAELI OFFICIALS AND WITH

HAMAS AND WE’RE ALWAYS TRYING TO MOVE THE NEEDLE SO THAT THE CURSOR MOVES MORE TOWARDS THE OBLIGATION OF PARTIES TO THE CONFLICT TO TAKE PRECAUTIONS AND TO PROTECT CIVILIANS FROM HARM RATHER THAN TO FOCUS EXCLUSIVELY ON MILITARY OBJECTIVES. AND ROBERT, I THINK IT’S SO IMPORTANT TO FOLLOW UP ON ON

MORE PERSPECTIVE ON HOW YOU DO THAT, BECAUSE AS YOU KNOW, THIS SUCH A SENSITIVE, FRAGILE SITUATION AND THERE’S SO MUCH HATE THAT WE ARE WITNESSING AROUND THE WORLD. THIS IS FUELED BY HATE. YET YOU CAN REMAIN NEUTRAL AND CALM AND ACTUALLY GET EVERYBODY TALKING AND BRINGING HOSTAGES BACK SAFELY,

WHICH IS TRULY REMARKABLE. COULD YOU JUST GIVE US INSIGHT AS AS VIEWERS. HOW YOU DO THAT, HOW YOU MANAGE TO DO THAT WHEN THIS THIS THIS IS SUCH A VOLATILE SITUATION. WE WATCHED PEOPLE KIDNAPPED WE HEAR OF THEM BEING TORTURED. WE HEAR OF THEM BEING KILLED. YET YOU ABLE TO FACILITATE

CONVERSATIONS WITH BOTH PARTIES AND REMAIN NEUTRAL. >> HOW DO YOU DO THAT? IT’S ABOUT CALLING ON THE HUMANITY THAT EXISTS IN EVERYONE, INCLUDING PARTIES TO THE CONFLICT INCLUDE BEING AT A TIME WHERE EMOTIONS ARE RUNNING HIGH, WHERE WHERE OUTRAGE IS UNDERSTANDABLE ON BOTH SIDES. BUT AND THE TOOL FOR THIS

IS ARE GENEVA CONVENTIONS. THOSE HAVE BEEN REALLY THOUGHT RATIFIED AND ADOPTED BY ALL COUNTRIES ON EARTH PRECISELY TO ENSURE THAT IN THE WORST OF CIRCUMSTANCES, IN THE DARKEST OF HUMANITY STILL, THERE IS THE MINIMUM TO ALLEVIATE HUMAN SUFFERING IN WAR AND. THERE ARE VERY PRACTICAL RULES, AND WHEN THOSE RULES

ARE RESPECTED, THEY REDUCE HUMANITARIAN NEEDS, THEY ALLEVIATE SUFFERING. AND THIS IS WHAT WE DO EVERY DAY IN MORE THAN 100 EXISTING ARMED CONFLICT ACROSS THE GLOBE, INCLUDING NOW IN ISRAEL AND THE GAZA STRIP. >> SO GLAD TO HAVE YOU WITH US TODAY. AND KEEP US POSTED ON EVERYTHING YOU ARE

ACCOMPLISHING THERE ON THE HILL AND HERE IN D.C. WE APPRECIATE YOU. THANK YOU. >> THANK YOU FOR HAVING ME. AND BACK HERE AT HOME, DONALD TRUMP JR. SET TO TESTIFY IN HIS FATHER’S FRAUD TRIAL. DON JR. NAMED AS A DEFENDANT IN THE $250 MILLION LAWSUIT BROUGHT

BY THE NEW YORK AG’S OFFICE. AND IT ACCUSES HIM AND HIS BROTHER ERIC OF KNOWINGLY PARTICIPATING A SCHEME TO INFLATE THEIR FATHER’S NET WORTH SO THEY COULD OBTAIN BETTER BENEFITS. NBC INVESTIGATIVE PRODUCER AND REPORTER OLIVIA OUTSIDE COURT IN NEW YORK THERE WITH MORE. OLIVIA, WHAT’S THE LATEST FROM COURT TODAY?

WELL, KYRA, IT SEEMS WE’RE STILL A BIT OF A WAYS AWAY FROM WHEN DON JR IS GOING TO TESTIFY, WHICH, OF COURSE, HERE IS WAITING FOR OF THIS MORNING. WE SPENT THE DAY LISTENING TO TESTIMONY FROM ONE OF THE STATE’S EXPERT WITNESSES. THE STATE JUST WRAPPED UP WITH HIM.

AND NOW IT’S DONALD TRUMP’S ATTORNEY’S TURN CROSS-EXAMINE HIM. AND THEY HAVE ESTIMATED THAT THEY NEED 2 TO 3 HOURS TO CROSS-EXAMINE THIS WITNESS HERE, MUCH TO THE SORT OF IRE OF THE JUDGE WHO ESSENTIALLY HAS BEEN ASKING THEM TO SPEED IT ALONG, SAYING THAT THERE IS NO REASON IT SHOULD TAKE

2 TO 3 HOURS AND ESSENTIALLY TELLING THE DEFENSE ATTORNEY AT ONE POINT THAT THEY WERE TURNING WHAT SHOULD BE ONE QUESTION INTO FOUR QUESTIONS. SO ALREADY A LITTLE BIT OF HEAT FLYING HERE AS THE JUDGE IS STILL CLEARLY TRYING TO MOVE IT ALONG TO GET TO THAT WITNESS EVERYONE IS WAITING FOR HERE

AT DON JR. SO MOVING ALONG IN LUNCH NOW. WHEN WE COME BACK, WE’LL SEE MORE TESTIMONY FROM THE EXPERT . THEN ONCE HE IS DONE, THEN WE’LL GET DON JUNIOR ON THE STAND. >> SO WHAT EXACTLY HAS DONALD JR. BEEN DOING SINCE ALL OF THIS HAS AND JUST GOING BACK TO HIS

INVOLVEMENT IN THE TRUMP ORGANIZATION AND WE HAVEN’T HEARD MUCH FROM HIM SINCE THIS ALL BEGAN. WE HAVEN’T EXCEPT SORT OF ON SOCIAL MEDIA LIKE WE DO FROM A NUMBER OF MEMBERS OF THE TRUMP FAMILY. BUT REMEMBER DON JR IS ONE OF THE TOP EXECUTIVES AT THE TRUMP ORG.

AND HE STEPPED IN ONE OF THE LEADERS OF THE COMPANY WHEN HIS FATHER, DONALD BECAME PRESIDENT OF THE UNITED STATES. AND STILL TO THIS DAY, HE HOLDS A LEADERSHIP POSITION AT THE COMPANY. SO HE IS CERTAIN TO FACE QUESTIONS ABOUT WHAT HIS ROLE WAS THEN, SPECIFICALLY SOME OF THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

THAT THE ATTORNEY GENERAL SAYS WERE FRAUD TO AND THAT WERE INTENTIONALLY FRAUDULENT IN TO GAIN THE FAVORABLE LOANS AND THE FAVORABLE TAX RATE. SO I’M SURE HE’LL FACE QUESTIONS ABOUT THAT. HE’LL FACE QUESTIONS ABOUT WHAT SPECIFICALLY HE SAID WITH HIS FATHER AND CREATING THOSE STATEMENTS. BECAUSE REMEMBER HE’S NOT JUST AN EXECUTIVE HERE.

HE IS A TRUMP FAMILY MEMBER. SO REALLY, YOU DON’T GET MORE OF AN INSIDER IN THE COMPANY AND IN THE FAMILY THAN HIM. AND WHAT DO YOU THINK WE CAN EXPECT NEXT IN THIS CASE? WHO’S GOING TO THE STAND? AND I GUESS WE HEAR FROM MORE FAMILY MEMBERS. ABSOLUTELY, DON.

GOING TO SET OFF SORT OF A ONE AFTER ANOTHER WHO’S WHO OF THE TRUMP FAMILY. ONCE HE’S DONE, HIS BROTHER, ERIC IS GOING TO TAKE THE STAND THAT’S GOING TO GIVE WAY TO DONALD TRUMP HIMSELF, TAKING THE STAND ON MONDAY. AND THEN FINALLY, IVANKA. SHE HAD TRIED TO GET OUT

OF TESTIFYING, BUT THE ULTIMATELY RULED THAT SHE DID HAVE TO. SO WE’RE GETTING INTO NOW WHAT IS ESSENTIALLY ONE OF THE MOST CRITICAL WEEKS IN THE ATTORNEY GENERAL’S CASE TO HEAR FROM THE FOUR TRUMP FAMILY MEMBERS THEMSELVES. AFTER WEEKS OF TESTIMONY, FINANCIAL DOCUMENTS FROM BANKERS AND INSURANCE MEMBERS,

WE ARE NOW GETTING INTO THE CENTRAL CASE, THE TRUMPS THEMSELVES, AND THAT CERTAINLY WHAT EVERYONE IS WAITING TO HEAR. ALL RIGHT, LYDIA RUBEN THERE IN NEW YORK. IT’LL BE INTERESTING TO FOLLOW, THAT’S FOR SURE. THANK YOU SO MUCH. COMING UP, BORROWERS, BEWARE. THE EDUCATION DEPARTMENT SCRAMBLING TO FIX THE PROBLEMATIC RESTART

IF YOU LOVE BEING IN THE KNOW YOU’RE GOING TO LOVE THIS EXPERIENCE IT’S THE ALL NEW ABC NEWS APP DOWNLOAD IT N >> GLAD YOU’RE STREAMING WITH US IT’S TO BE A CASH CRUNCH CUSTOMER SERVICE NIGHTMARE AND STUDENT LOAN BORROWERS ARE GOING TO SUFFER THE CONSEQUENCES. AND ON TOP OF ALL THAT,

THE DEPARTMENT EDUCATION ADMITS THAT ROUGHLY 830,000 PEOPLE MISSED THEIR FIRST PAYMENTS AFTER A LOAN SERVICE FAILED, SEND OUT TIMELY NOTICES TO MORE THAN 2 MILLION BORROWERS. ALSO, 21,000 PEOPLE RECEIVED INCORRECT BILLS. OH, AND ADDING EVEN MORE SALT TO THE WOUND, 16,000 MORE PEOPLE RECEIVE BILLS DESPITE THE BIDEN ADMINISTRATION CANCELING THEIR DEBT.

>> FOR MORE, LET’S BRING IN OUR ABC NEWS CORRESPONDENT SPECIALS TO TALK ABOUT A HOT MESS. WHAT ARE THEY GOING TO DO TO FIX IT, ELIZABETH? RIGHT HERE. IN SOME WAYS, THESE GLITCHES AREN’T UNEXPECTED, GIVEN THE FACT THAT THERE WAS THIS MORE THAN THREE YEAR PAUSE ON THOSE FEDERAL STUDENT LOAN

PAYMENTS, THE GOVERNMENT AND THEN DURING THAT TIME, 20 MILLION PEOPLE SAW THEIR LOAN SWITCH, LOAN SERVICER SWITCH OVER. PART OF THE REASON WHY SOME OF THE LOAN SERVICERS IN THE PANDEMIC WENT OUT OF BUSINESS. SO THIS KIND OF DELUGE OF PEOPLE COMING BACK ONLINE AND MAKING THOSE AFTER

THREE YEARS, IT WAS EXPECTED TO BE A LITTLE BIT CHAOTIC. BUT WHAT WE’VE LEARNED IS THAT A TOTAL OF 1.3 MILLION PEOPLE ARE SUFFERING SOME SORT OF BILLING ERROR. THEY WERE NOTIFIED THE WRONG AMOUNT OF THEIR PAYMENTS. THEY DIDN’T GET THEIR PAYMENTS AT ALL AND THEY DIDN’T GET THEIR OR THEY DIDN’T

GET THE NOTIFICATION ON TIME. SO WHAT THE GOVERNMENT IS TRYING TO DO NOW, AND THIS IS A KEY STEP THAT THE ADMINISTRATION HAS ANNOUNCED, KNOWING THAT THIS MIGHT BE A LITTLE BIT CHAOTIC COMING BACK IS THERE’S A ONE YEAR GRACE PERIOD IF YOU’RE A BORROWER WITH STUDENT FEDERAL STUDENT LOANS AND YOU MISS

A PAYMENT OVER THE NEXT YEAR, YOU WILL NOT BE HELD DELINQUENT. NOW, IMPORTANTLY, THOUGH, DURING THAT TIME, YOU’RE STILL GOING TO HAVE INTEREST GOING UP. YOU’RE STILL GOING TO SEE YOUR BALANCE ON YOUR LOANS GO UP. SO IT’S NOT LIKE THIS IS JUST THE FREEZE HAS BEEN EXTENDED ANOTHER YEAR, BUT IT DOES

GIVE A LITTLE BIT OF BREATHING ROOM TO TRY TO SORT THESE ISSUES OUT. AND WE’RE FINDING THAT THAT BREATHING ROOM ISN’T JUST HELPING THE BORROWERS, BUT IT’S ALSO HELPING THESE SERVICERS WHO HAVE PLENTY OF THEIR OWN ISSUES, TOO KYRA. ALL RIGHT. SO THIS THE FIRST INSTANCE, RIGHT, OF THE GOVERNMENT

WITHHOLDING PAYMENT, A STUDENT LOAN SERVICER. SO HOW UNUSUAL IS THIS PROTOCOL? IT’S PRETTY UNUSUAL. AND THE SERVICER THAT WE’RE TALKING ABOUT HERE IS MAHELA. A LOT OF PEOPLE WITH STUDENT LOANS WILL KNOW THAT NAME VERY WELL AND THEY’LL HAVE PROBABLY HAD THEIR OWN ISSUES GETTING THROUGH TO THE COMPANY.

WE’VE BEEN HEARING NOT JUST SOME OF THESE BILLING ERRORS, GETTING A PERSON ON THE OTHER SIDE ON THE PHONE, GETTING IN TOUCH WITH ABOUT THESE ERRORS IN THE FIRST PLACE IS PROVING TO BE DIFFICULT. SO WHAT EDUCATION DEPARTMENT IS DOING IS IT’S BASICALLY USING ITS LEVERAGE. IT HAS THIS CONTRACT

WITH MAHELA LIKE IT DOES WITH OTHER LOAN SERVICERS AND THE GOVERNMENT IS SAYING, HEY, GET YOUR ACT TOGETHER. WE DO BUSINESS WITH YOU. WE’RE SENDING YOU A WARNING THAT YOU NEED TO GET IN LINE AND THE EDUCATION DEPARTMENT IS SAYING THIS SHOULD SEND A STRONG MESSAGE, NOT JUST

TO MAHELA, WHICH BY THE WAY, HAS NOT RESPONDED TO OUR REQUESTS FOR COMMENT, BUT TO SOME OF THE SERVICERS FOR THEM TO GET THEIR ACT IN LINE TO KYRA. >> SO THE BIDEN ADMINISTRATION IS PLANNING ANOTHER STAB AT STUDENT LOAN FORGIVENESS UNDER HIGHER EDUCATION ACT. DO YOU HAVE ANYTHING MORE ON

THIS PROPOSAL, WHAT IT WOULD ENTAIL, AND WILL IT WORK? WELL, WE HAVE LEARNED THAT NEXT WEEK THE EDUCATION DEPARTMENT IS CONVENING A, MEETING WITH LEGAL EXPERTS, WITH DEBT RELIEF ADVOCATES TO TRY TO FIGURE OUT A PLAN B FOR THIS BROADER STUDENT LOAN DEBT CANCELLATION. AND OF COURSE, IT’S A PLAN

B BECAUSE PRESIDENT BIDEN PROPOSED THAT WIDE RANGING PLAN THAT WOULD HAVE CANCELED UP TO $20,000 IN STUDENT LOAN DEBT FOR MILLIONS OF BORROWERS. BUT THAT PLAN WAS STRUCK DOWN BY THE SUPREME COURT. TYPICALLY, RULEMAKING PROCESS WOULD TAKE MORE THAN A YEAR. IT’S GOING TO TAKE SOME TIME

FOR THEM TO FIGURE OUT HOW TO MAKE THIS HAPPEN THROUGH THE HIGHER EDUCATION ACT, BUT THEY’LL IS THERE IS A POLITICAL PRESSURE HERE. THIS IS AN ISSUE THAT THE PRESIDENT HAS CAMPAIGNED ON AND THEY’RE TRYING TO EXPEDITE THIS AS FAST THEY CAN. ALL RIGHT, ELIZABETH SCHULZE, THANK YOU SO MUCH AND COMING UP.

WE’LL TAKE YOU THERE. THE FEDERAL RESERVE’S NEXT MOVE ON INTEREST RATES AFFECTING EVERYTHING FROM THE NATIONAL DEBT TO YOUR WALLET.

WE’RE BREAKING DOWN THE NUMBERS AND THE THANKSGIVING FORECAST. THE BEST TIME TO BUY YOUR TURKEY AND WHICH FOODS WILL COST MORE THIS HOLIDAY SEASON. GOOD, EVERYONE. I’M KYRA PHILLIPS. OUR TOP STORY THIS HOUR, NEW PICTURES OUT GAZA SHOWING THE DEVASTATING DAMAGE AT THE JABALYA REFUGEE AS THE HAMAS CONTROLLED HEALTH MINISTRY

THERE CLAIMING A SECOND ISRAELI AIRSTRIKE IN THE LAST TWO DAYS. THE IDF SAYS THEY ARE NOT AWARE OF THE STRIKE, BUT ARE LOOKING INTO REPORTS. THIS COMES AS THE PALESTINIAN CHILDREN’S RELIEF FUND CONFIRMS TO ABC NEWS THAT AMERICAN AID WORKERS ARE NOW SAFE IN EGYPT AFTER AN EXCRUCIATING WAIT

AT THE RAFAH BORDER CROSSING IN GAZA. THE FAMILIES OF EMILY CALLAHAN, BARBARA ZIND, RAMONA OKAMURA, ALISON GRECO AND SAMANTHA HUNT ALL BREATHING SIGH OF RELIEF AS THEY ARE ONE STEP CLOSER TO COMING HOME. AN ADDITIONAL 335 DUAL NATIONALS AND FOREIGNERS HAVE ALSO CROSSED THE BORDER, ALONG WITH 17 AMBULANCES CARRYING

AT LEAST 76 INJURED GAZANS IN AS THEY LIQUID TERROR. JOINS ME NOW FROM JERUSALEM WITH MORE. SO AS WE SPOKE YESTERDAY, RIGHT AFTER THAT FIRST STRIKE ON THE JABALYA REFUGEE CAMP. NOW, HEARING REPORTS OF A SECOND ONE. WHAT CAN YOU CONFIRM? HEY, KYRA. YEAH, SO AS OF JUST A FEW

MOMENTS AGO, ACTUALLY WE DID GET CONFIRMATION FROM THE IDF THAT THEY DID STRIKE THE JABALYA REFUGEE CAMP A SECOND TIME TODAY. SO THEY SAY EARLIER TODAY, BASED ON PRECISE IDF FIGHTER JETS, STRUCK A HAMAS COMMAND AND CONTROL COMPLEX IN JABALYA. WE CAN CONFIRM THAT HAMAS TERRORISTS WERE ELIMINATED IN STRIKE.

THEY THEN GO ON TO TALK ABOUT HOW THEY’VE BEEN URGING GAZANS TO FLEE NORTHERN GAZA AND HEAD SOUTH. THAT’S SIMILAR TO WHAT WE HEARD YESTERDAY IN THEIR STATEMENT. THEY DON’T REALLY ACKNOWLEDGE THE CIVILIAN CASUALTIES HERE, BUT REITERATE THEIR POSITION AND THEIR CALL FOR CIVILIANS TO HEAD SOUTH. THIS IS THE SECOND STRIKE

ON THE JABALYA REFUGEE CAMP IN LESS THAN 24 HOURS. WE SAW THAT MASSIVE BLAST YESTERDAY. THOSE HORRIFIC IMAGES, THE CRATER THAT WAS LEFT THERE AND THE CHAOS THAT ENSUED, PEOPLE RUSHING TO THE SCENE TRYING TO DIG THROUGH THE RUBBLE TO GET TO SURVIVORS. WE KNOW THE HAMAS RUN HEALTH MINISTRY THAT AT LEAST

52 PEOPLE WERE KILLED IN THAT STRIKE. IT’S UNCLEAR HOW MANY PEOPLE MAY HAVE BEEN KILLED IN THIS STRIKE. BUT THE HAMAS RUN HEALTH MINISTRY SAID THAT IT COULD BE TENS OF THOUSANDS OF SORRY, TENS OF PEOPLE INJURED OR WOUNDED IN THAT STRIKE. SO REAL FOR THE CIVILIAN DEATH TOLL THERE.

AND AGAIN, THE IDF INSISTING THAT THEY GOING AFTER TERRORISTS HERE, THE FIRST STRIKE, THEY SAY THEY TOOK OUT A TOP HAMAS COMMANDER WHO THEY SAY WAS ONE OF THE MASTERMINDS BEHIND THE OCTOBER SEVENTH TERROR ATTACK. >> SO WHAT DO WE KNOW ABOUT THOSE WHO WERE ABLE TO CROSS THE BORDER, INCLUDING

THE FIVE U.S. AID WORKERS? YES. SO GREAT NEWS THERE. THE FACT THAT THE RAFAH BORDER CROSSING IS ONCE AGAIN OPEN TO PEOPLE, THIS IS THE FIRST TIME IT’S BEEN OPEN TO PEOPLE SINCE OCTOBER 7TH. WE KNOW PRIORITY IS BEING GIVEN TO WHO HAVE BEEN CRITICALLY WOUNDED. AND WE UNDERSTAND THAT 76

CRITICALLY INJURED PATIENTS WERE ABLE TO CROSS OUT OF GAZA INTO EGYPT. THERE WERE AMBULANCES THERE WAITING THAT FIELD. HOSPITALS ARE ALSO BEING SET UP ON THE EGYPTIAN SIDE OF THE BORDER. AS FAR AS FOREIGN NATIONALS, THAT’S ANOTHER PART OF THIS, THOUGH WE DO KNOW THAT SOME FOREIGN NATIONALS ARE FINALLY

BEING ALLOWED TO LEAVE GAZA AND. WE UNDERSTAND THAT 335 FOREIGN NATIONALS WERE ALLOWED TO CROSS ,INCLUDING THOSE FIVE AMERICAN NGO WORKERS. OKAY. AND WHAT MORE ARE WE HEARING FROM EGYPTIAN LEADERS AS WELL? AND COULD WE SEE OTHER PLAYERS IN THE ARAB WORLD AS GET INVOLVED WHEN IT COMES IN,

WHEN IT COMES TO TAKING IN REFUGEES? YEAH, THAT’S THE BIG QUESTION HERE. SO ACCORDING REUTERS, QATAR IS WORKING ON A DEAL RIGHT NOW TO TRY TO ALLOW FOR LIMITED EVACUATIONS, BUT IT’S UNLIKELY THAT WE’LL SEE ANY KIND OF MASS EVACUATIONS, UNLIKELY THAT EGYPT WILL WANT TO TAKE IN PALESTINIAN HERE.

PROBABLY BE FOR SEVERAL REASONS, BUT PROBABLY MOST IMPORTANT BEING THAT THEY DON’T WANT TO BE SEEN AS AIDING THE RESETTLEMENT OF THOUSANDS HUNDREDS OF THOUSANDS OF PALESTINIAN REFUGEES, BECAUSE THAT WOULD ESSENTIALLY SPELL THE END OF THIS DREAM OF PALESTINIAN STATEHOOD, WHICH EGYPT SUPPORTS. AND SAME GOES FOR JORDAN. UNLIKELY THAT JORDAN WOULD TAKE

IN ANY PALESTINIAN REFUGEES ON THE JORDANIAN FRONT. INTERESTING TO NOTE THAT THIS EVENING THE JORDAN RECALLED ITS AMBASSADOR TO ISRAEL SLAMMING ISRAEL FOR THE WAR IN GAZA, TALKING ABOUT THE CATASTROPHIC HUMANITARIAN SITUATION THERE AND TALKING ABOUT HOW THIS WILL LIKELY CAUSE INSTABILITY FOR FOR THE ENTIRE REGION. SO ISRAEL, JORDAN RELATIONS

THERE, YOU KNOW, REALLY FRAUGHT TO SAY THE LEAST. AND THERE ARE FEARS AS TO WHAT THIS COULD MEAN FOR THE ISRAEL EGYPT RELATIONSHIP AS WELL. ALL RIGHT, INES DE LA CUETARA, THANK YOU SO MUCH. WELL, IT WAS 25 DAYS AGO WHEN THE SAVAGE HAMAS ATTACK OUT AND YARDEN ROMAN HANDED

HER THREE YEAR OLD DAUGHTER TO HER HUSBAND, HOPING THAT HE COULD RUN FASTER AS THEY TRIED TO FLEE HAMAS GUNMEN. HER HUSBAND AND CHILD WERE ABLE TO ESCAPE THAT GUNFIRE. HIDING IN THE WOODS FOR 12 HOURS. BUT 36 YEAR OLD YARDEN DID NOT ESCAPE. NOW, THIS MOTHER AND WIFE HAS

BEEN MISSING EVER SINCE DEVASTATING ATTACK, AND HER FAMILY HAS BEEN CALLING FOR HER RELEASE DAY. THAT INCLUDES HER COUSIN, MAYA, WHO’S HERE IN D.C. ADVOCATING FOR YARDEN SAFE RETURN. MAYA, SO GLAD TO HAVE YOU WITH US. AND WE’LL TALK ABOUT WHY YOU’RE HERE IN OUR NATION’S CAPITAL IN A MOMENT.

BUT FIRST, JUST TELL ABOUT YOUR COUSIN AND WHAT SHE’S LIKE. THANK YOU, KYRA. YOUR DAD IS ACTUALLY A VERY, VERY QUIET PERSON. IF WERE TO KNOW HOW MUCH HER PICTURE HAS BEEN GOING AROUND ALL OVER THE WORLD, SHE WOULD BE HORRIFIED. I SUPPOSE. IT WAS A 36TH BIRTHDAY JUST

ABOUT A WEEK AGO WHEN ME AND SOME OTHER FAMILY MEMBERS WERE IN BERLIN BECAUSE THEIR DAD IS ALSO A GERMAN CITIZEN, AS WE ARE. AND WE WERE ADVOCATING. WE HELD A HUGE RALLY WITH 25,000 PEOPLE AT THE BRANDENBURG BRIDGE IN BERLIN, WHERE WE SANG HAPPY BIRTHDAY TOGETHER, FOLLOWED

AND WE ALL THOUGHT ABOUT HOW YOU WEIRD IT IS THAT WE ARE CELEBRATING HER BIRTHDAY WITH 25,000 PEOPLE WHEN SHE NEVER WANTED TO DO ANYTHING ON HER BIRTHDAY. OTHER THAN SIT AROUND WITH HER CLOSE FAMILY. SHE IS A VERY ATHLETIC PERSON. SHE’S A PROFESSIONAL ROCK CLIMBER. SHE’S A PHYSICAL THERAPIST,

AND SHE’S AN AMAZING, AMAZING MOTHER. HER THREE YEAR OLD DAUGHTER, GEFFEN, THAT IS STAYING WITH US WAS SO CONNECTED TO HER THAT SHE NEVER EVEN NOTICED ANYONE ELSE. SO I AM NOW THE CLOSEST I’VE EVER BEEN TO GEFFEN BECAUSE WHENEVER I MET HER BEFORE, SHE JUST WOULDN’T LET GO OF HER MOM.

AND NOW THAT HER MOM ISN’T AROUND, SHE IS SUDDENLY FORCED TO, YOU KNOW, SHE’S DEALING AND SHE’S VERY SOCIAL. BUT YOU SEE THAT THIS, YOU KNOW, DERIVED FROM A TERRIBLE, TERRIBLE CIRCUMSTANCE THAT NO THREE-YEAR-OLD SHOULD HAVE TO DEAL WITH. SO ALL MISS CHILDREN VERY MUCH. AND YEAH, WE’RE DOING

EVERYTHING TO GET HER BACK AS FAST AS POSSIBLE. >> WELL, CLEARLY FEELS HER MOM THROUGH YOU AND WHAT A BLESSING THAT IS. SO YOU NEED TO HOLD HER TIGHT AND MAKE SURE YOU DO EVERYTHING YOU CAN TO REASSURE HER THAT SHE’S GOING TO BE OKAY. AND I KNOW YOU JUST CAME FROM

THIS MEETING BY AT THE STATE DEPARTMENT. CAN TELL US WHO YOU HAD A CHANCE TO MEET WITH. WHAT DID YOU DISCUSS? AND ALSO, WHAT DID THEY TELL YOU? I CAN’T TALK ABOUT THIS MEETING ,ACTUALLY, BUT I CAN SAY THAT WE’VE HAD A LOT OF MEETINGS WITH MANY SENATORS SINCE WE GOT HERE.

THEY HAVE BEEN AMAZING. PEOPLE ARE VERY MUCH CONNECTED TO THIS ISSUE. WE’RE VERY STRENGTHENED TO SEE THAT THEIR SUPPORT ACROSS THE AISLE FOR THE ISSUE OF THE HOSTAGES. AND WE BELIEVE THAT THE UNITED STATES PLAYS A MAJOR ROLE IN THIS ISSUE, AS THERE ARE, OF COURSE, HOSTAGES WITH AMERICAN NATIONALITY.

BUT — BUT IN GETTING BACK ALL OF THE HOSTAGES SAFELY. BUT IT IS VERY IMPORTANT TO US TO CONVEY, YOU KNOW, THE TERRIBLE SITUATION THAT WE’RE IN. IT IS SOON A MONTH SINCE WE’VE LAST SEEN THE IN. WE DON’T KNOW IF SHE’S OKAY. SHE DOESN’T KNOW THAT HER DAUGHTER IS OKAY.

IT’S A MONTH THAT WE HAVE NO SIGN OF LIFE. THIS IS CONSIDERED A WAR CRIME ACCORDING TO INTERNATIONAL STANDARDS. THE FACT HAMAS HAS NOT GIVEN US ANY INDICATION ABOUT WHETHER SHE’S ALIVE OR DEAD OR HURT AND HAS NOT GIVEN RED CROSS THE ABILITY TO MEET ALL OF THE HOSTAGES.

AND I THINK THIS NEEDS TO BE, YOU KNOW, THE TOP PRIORITY WHEN WE DISCUSS WHAT’S ON RIGHT NOW IN GAZA, WHICH IS IMPORTANT. WE HAVE TO REMEMBER THIS ISSUE OF THE HOSTAGES. THERE ARE OVER 200 HOSTAGES THAT WE HAVE TO GET BACK. AND WE’RE VERY PLEASED TO SEE THAT THE UNITED STATES

UNDERSTANDS THIS AND IS REALLY GIVING US ALL OF ITS SUPPORT AND ALL OF ITS ALL OF ITS PEOPLE TO TRY AND RESOLVE THIS AS FAST AS POSSIBLE BY DIPLOMATIC MEANS OR BY MILITARY MEANS. BUT WE ARE VERY CONCERNED BECAUSE AS TIME GOES BY, WE THAT EVENTUALLY THE PUBLIC

ATTENTION IS GOING TO GO ON TO THE NEXT THING. AND, YOU KNOW, THIS IS A DISASTER YEAR FOR OVER 220 FAMILIES WHOSE LOVED ONES ARE STILL MISSING. WE CAN’T. SO WHAT ARE YOUR COME? YEAH. WHAT ARE YOUR BIGGEST CONCERNS THEN, AS AS IDF FORCES EXPAND THIS GROUND, THE GROUND OPERATIONS HAVE SEEN

SOME HOSTAGES RELEASED. SO, YOU KNOW, THERE’S HOPE, BUT THERE’S ALSO TOTAL ANXIETY. WHAT ARE YOUR THOUGHTS AS YOU SEE OPERATIONS PICK UP? ANXIETY IS VERY, VERY CORRECT. YOU KNOW, THERE’S ALSO THE ASPECT OF THE PSYCHOLOGICAL TERROR THAT WE’VE ALL BEEN GOING THROUGH FOR THE PAST FOUR MONTHS, BECAUSE REALLY, WE

INITIALLY THOUGHT THAT A DEAL, A HUMANITARIAN DEAL WAS MINUTES AWAY. AND EVERY TIME WE HEAR FROM HAMAS, OH, THEY’RE GOING TO LET ALL OF THE DUAL NATIONALITIES GO OR THEY’RE GOING TO LET WOMEN AND CHILDREN GO OR, WAIT, ACTUALLY, THEY’RE NOT GOING TO LET ANYONE GO. SO, YOU KNOW, WE WERE VERY

PRO A HUMANITARIAN DEAL. AND OF WE ARE STILL FOR ANY KIND OF DEAL THAT CAN BE REACHED. BUT AT THE SAME TIME, WE UNDERSTAND THAT WE ARE DEALING WITH A TERROR ORGANIZATION THAT WE CANNOT TRUST. AND THAT IS WHY WE UNDERSTAND THE MILITARY INCURSION THAT BASICALLY IS ALSO MEANT

TO CREATE MORE PRESSURE ON HAMAS AND TO FORCE THEM TO COME BACK TO THE NEGOTIATING TABLE. SO YOU KNOW, YOU NEVER KNOW WHAT TO BELIEVE AND WHAT NOT TO BELIEVE AND WHAT THE RIGHT TACTIC IS GOING TO BE. I’M NOT A MILITARY SPECIALIST AND I’M NOT, YOU KNOW ANY KIND

OF SPECIAL I DON’T HAVE ANY SPECIAL KNOWLEDGE REGARDING THE SITUATION. I JUST FIND MYSELF IN IT. SO YOU NEVER KNOW WHAT WHAT TO BELIEVE AND WHAT TO TAKE SERIOUSLY. AND THIS LEADS THIS CONSTANT ANXIETY. FEW DAYS AGO WE HEARD THAT SHANI LUKE, WHO WAS ANOTHER PERSON WE BELIEVE TO BE

KIDNAPPED WITH DUAL CITIZENSHIP ,DUAL GERMAN CITIZENSHIP. SHE WAS KIDNAPPED FROM THE MUSIC FESTIVAL AND HER MOTHER WAS WITH US IN BERLIN ADVOCATING FOR HER RELEASE. AND JUST A FEW DAYS AGO WE LEARNED THAT SHE HAS BEEN SHE’S BEEN MURDERED. SHE WAS DEAD THIS ENTIRE TIME. SO HER MOTHER HAS BEEN SPENDING

THE LAST FOUR WEEKS ADVOCATING AND TALKING ABOUT HER DAUGHTER AND HOW IMPORTANT IT IS FOR HER TO COME BACK. AND ALL THIS TIME SHE WASN’T WITH US. AND IT’S JUST DEVASTATING TO TO UNDERSTAND THAT THIS CAN HAPPEN. WELL, WE WANT TO STAY IN CLOSE TOUCH WITH YOU, MAIA, OF COURSE, AS YOU CONTINUE

TO ADVOCATE FOR YOUR COUSIN’S RELEASE, WE WANT TO FOLLOW THE STORY AND FOLLOW IT WITH YOU. MAIA, THANK YOU. THANK YOU. >> SO THE FEDERAL RESERVE IS NOT RAISING INTEREST RATES. THE FED JUST ANNOUNCED ITS DECISION, A MOVE BEING CLOSELY WATCHED IN WALL STREET AND MAIN STREET.

SO FOR MORE, LET’S BRING IN OUR MAVENS OF ALL THINGS, MONEY, ELIZABETH SCHULZE AND ALEXIS CHRISTOFOROUS. ALEXIS, LET’S START WITH YOU AND BREAK DOWN ALL THE NUMBERS FOR US AS WE AWAIT POWELL’S COMMENTS. >> SO THE FEDERAL RESERVE FOR THE SECOND MONTH IN A ROW, NOT RAISING INTEREST RATES AS THEY

SEE HOW THESE HIGHER RATES SORT OF PLAY OUT THROUGH THE ECONOMY. INFLATION STILL HIGHER THAN THE FED WANTS AT 3.7%. WE KNOW THE FED HAS ITS TARGET. THERE IS A 2%. SO THERE IS STILL MORE WORK TO BE DONE. THOUGH THE FED DIDN’T RAISE INTEREST RATES TODAY, THEY DEFINITELY DID LEAVE

THE DOOR OPEN FOR MORE INTEREST RATE HIKES DOWN THE ROAD. THEY DID ACKNOWLEDGE THAT THE ECONOMY REMAINS STRONG AND THAT THE JOB MARKET IS ALSO STRONG. REMEMBER, THIS IS THE 11TH. WELL BEFORE THIS WE HAD 11 INTEREST RATE HIKES IN JUST THE PAST YEAR AND A HALF AND WE’RE STARTING TO SEE

THAT FILTER THROUGH THE ECONOMY IN THE WAY OF HIGHER MORTGAGE RATE WHICH HAVE NOW MORE THAN DOUBLED TO ABOUT 8%. WE’VE GOT INTEREST ON CREDIT CARDS NOW NEAR, A RECORD 21%. DESPITE THAT, CONSUMERS ARE STILL SPENDING AND WE HAVE A VERY STRONG AND SOMEWHAT TIGHT LABOR MARKET. WE’LL MORE ABOUT THAT ON FRIDAY

WHEN THE WHEN THE GOVERNMENT RELEASES ITS LATEST REPORT. BUT — BUT OVERALL, THE FED IS REALLY TAKING A WAIT AND SEE ATTITUDE DECIDING NOT TO MOVE ON RATES NOW. BUT SOME ECONOMISTS SAY, WE COULD SEE THAT RATE HIKE COME IN DECEMBER. >> ALL RIGHT, ELIZABETH, AS AMERICANS REMAIN PRETTY MUCH

PESSIMISTIC ABOUT THE RIGHT NOW, YOU KNOW, PRESIDENT BIDEN’S APPROVAL RATING AMONG DEMOCRATS IS JUST TANKING. SO HOW IS THE BIDEN ADMINISTRATION PLAN TO SPIN THIS? AND HERE IT’S THIS DICHOTOMY WE’VE SEEN WHERE A LOT OF THE ECONOMIC DATA, WHEN IT LOOKS AT THE JOBS MARKET, WHEN YOU LOOK AT GDP GROWTH,

IS REMARKABLY STRONG. AND YET CONTINUE TO SAY THAT THE ECONOMY IS NOT IN GOOD SHAPE AND THEY HAVE VERY RATINGS OF PRESIDENT BIDEN’S HANDLING OF THE ECONOMY. AND THIS IS SOMETHING THE WHITE IS AWARE OF. THE PRESIDENT CONTINUES TO TRY TO FOCUS IN HIS PUBLIC REMARKS ON LEGISLATION THAT HE’S PASSED

THAT WOULD, OVER THE LONG TERM, LOWER COSTS FOR THINGS LIKE HEALTH CARE. HE’S PROPOSED LEGISLATION FOR LOWER CHILD CARE. BUT PART OF THE PROBLEM THERE IS THAT THAT’S THAT TAKES TIME TO KICK IN. SO THAT’S SOMETHING THAT AMERICANS ARE IMMEDIATELY FEELING. AND PART OF THE DISCONNECT, AT LEAST WHEN TALK WHEN

YOU LOOK AT THE SURVEYS AND YOU SEE WHY PEOPLE SAY THE ECONOMY IS SO BAD, KYRA. COMES DOWN TO THAT INFLATION PIECE. AND THAT’S WHY THE FED HAS BEEN DOING ALL INTEREST RATE HIKES OVER THE PAST YEAR AND A HALF IS TO TRY TO BRING DOWN PRICES . PRICES HAVE COME DOWN.

THEY’VE COME UP. THERE WAS A 9% INFLATION RATE JUST OVER A YEAR AGO. WE’RE NOW CLOSER TO 3%. BUT THE FACT IS THAT PEOPLE ARE STILL PAYING MORE, ESPECIALLY FOR A LOT OF EVERYDAY GOODS, GROCERIES AND GAS. AND THAT’S WEIGHING ON SENTIMENT AND THAT’S WEIGHING ON THEIR FEELINGS ABOUT THE ECONOMY.

AND IT’S WHY THE FED IS SAYING IT HAS TO CONTINUE THIS INFLATION FIGHT. OF COURSE, POLITICALLY, THE FED IS INDEPENDENT, BUT IT’S SAYING IT CONTINUES TO FOCUS ON INFLATION. IT’S NOT RULING OUT MORE INTEREST RATE HIKES AS PART OF THAT FIGHT AGAINST INFLATION. SO, ALEXIS, WHAT ARE WE EXPECTING TO HEAR FROM POWELL?

WELL, I THINK, YOU KNOW, YOU’RE GOING TO HEAR MORE ABOUT REPORTERS WILL HAVE AN OPPORTUNITY TO ASK HIM QUESTIONS THEY’RE GOING TO BE ASKING ABOUT WHERE DOES HE SEE INFLATION HEADED, WHAT IS IT GOING TAKE FOR THE FEDERAL RESERVE TO SAY, ALL RIGHT, ENOUGH. >> IS STILL MEAN THAT INFLATION

HAS TO HIT 2%? ARE THEY OKAY WITH IT NOT HITTING 2%, BUT SEEING A BIGGER PULLBACK IN OVERALL ECONOMIC GROWTH AND JOB? I THINK THESE ARE SOME OF THE QUESTIONS YOU’RE GOING TO SEE. AND ALSO, WE’VE SEEN A RECENT RUN UP, A RATHER DRAMATIC AND SWIFT RUN UP IN TREASURY YIELDS.

THESE ARE INTEREST RATES TIED TO BONDS. SO THEY CAN ALSO TIGHTEN FINANCIAL CONDITIONS. AND SOME ARE SAYING THAT THAT ALONE SORT OF ACTS AS ONE OR TWO, MAYBE EVEN THREE INTEREST RATE HIKES FROM THE FEDERAL RESERVE. SO THEY’LL BE QUESTIONS, I WOULD IMAGINE, ABOUT HOW THEY ARE SEEING THAT RISE

IN BOND YIELDS AND HOW THAT’S FACTORING INTO THEIR DECISIONS TO RAISE, NOT TO RAISE INTEREST RATES IN THE MONTHS AHEAD. ALL RIGHT. ELIZABETH SCHULZE ALEXIS CHRISTOFOROUS. LADIES, THANK YOU SO MUCH. >> AND COMING UP, ANOTHER TRUMP TO TESTIFY. THIS TIME IT’S THE FORMER PRESIDENT’S SON. WHAT COULD HE REVEAL IN HIS

GLAD YOU’RE STREAMING WITH US. DONALD TRUMP’S SON SET TO TESTIFY IN HIS FATHER’S CIVIL FRAUD TRIAL. DON JR. NAMED AS A DEFENDANT IN THE $250 MILLION LAWSUIT BROUGHT ON BY THE NEW AG’S OFFICE. AND IT ACCUSES HIM AND HIS BROTHER ERIC OF KNOWINGLY PARTICIPATING IN A SCHEME TO INFLATE THEIR FATHER’S NET

SO THEY COULD OBTAIN BETTER FINANCIAL BENEFITS. OUR SENIOR INVESTIGATIVE AARON KATERSKY IS OUTSIDE COURT THERE IN NEW YORK WITH MORE SO ,ERIN, I KNOW JUNIOR JUST ARRIVED THERE TO COURT, BUT HE HASN’T TAKEN THE STAND YET. RIGHT. IS THERE A DELAY? THERE’S NO REAL DELAY. THEY’VE GONE A LITTLE LONGER

HERE WITH A PRIOR WITNESS THAN I THINK WAS ANTICIPATED. BUT DONALD TRUMP JUNIOR ARRIVED HERE ABOUT AN HOUR AGO, CLIMBED UP THE STEPS AT THE COURTHOUSE BEHIND ME IN THE COMPANY OF HIS LAWYERS. THIS IS THE FIRST TIME HE’S ACTUALLY HERE. HE’S A NAME DEFENDANT IN CASE ALONGSIDE HIS FATHER,

HIS BROTHER ERIC. ERIC, TRUMP’S BEEN HERE BEFORE, JUST TO WATCH, AS HAS FORMER PRESIDENT TRUMP. BUT THIS THE FIRST TIME DONALD TRUMP JUNIOR IS GOING TO BE HERE TO WITNESS PROCEEDINGS AND IS AN EXPERT WITNESS THAT THE STATE CALLED TO HELP THE JUDGE UNDERSTAND THE ILL GOTTEN GAINS OF THE TRUMP ORGANIZATION

BY FRAUDULENTLY INFLATING FORMER PRESIDENT TRUMP’S NET WORTH BY AS MUCH AS $2.2 BILLION. THE EXPERT WITNESS SAID IT MEANT $168 MILLION IN POTENTIAL INTEREST PAYMENTS THAT BANKS MISSED OUT ON BECAUSE THEY GIVEN FALSE INFORMATION BY THE TRUMP ORGANIZATION. THE TRUMP, OF COURSE, DISPUTES THAT, BUT IT’S THE FIRST WITNESS THAT’S ACTUALLY GETTING

TO TALK ABOUT THE POTENTIAL PENALTIES THAT TRUMP COULD HAVE TO PAY DEPENDING ON HOW THIS TRIAL GOES. SO WHAT MORE CAN WE EXPECT TO HEAR FROM JR’S TESTIMONY? I MEAN, HOW DETAILED DO YOU THINK HE WILL GET OR CAN? I’M NOT SURE HE CAN GET TERRIBLY DETAILED, KYRA,

BUT HE MIGHT NOT HAVE TO. OTHER WITNESSES HAVE ALREADY SAID THAT DONALD TRUMP JR WAS NOT HEAVILY INVOLVED IN IN THE PREPARATION OF THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS OF HIS OF FATHER’S THAT HAVE ALREADY BEEN DETERMINED TO BE FRAUDULENT BY THE JUDGE. HE DID SIGN THEM. AND JUST LIKE IF YOU SIGN

YOUR TAX RETURNS, YOU’RE LIABLE FOR WHAT THOSE TAX RETURNS, EVEN IF SOMEONE ELSE IN YOUR FAMILY MAY HAVE COMMITTED FRAUD HERE. THE ATTORNEY GENERAL’S OFFICE SAID DONALD TRUMP JUNIOR SIGNED OFF ON, SAY, THE VALUATION OF TRUMP’S PENTHOUSE APARTMENT ON FIFTH AVENUE AND TRUMP TOWER SAID IT WAS 30,000 SQUARE FEET

WORTH $327 MILLION. IT’S A THIRD THAT SIZE AND NO APARTMENT. NEW YORK CITY HAS EVER COME CLOSE TO THAT PRICE. HE ALSO SIGNED OFF ON THE VALUE OF TRUMP PARK AVENUE IN OTHER TRUMP PROPERTY, BUT HE VALUED THE APARTMENTS AS IF THEIR RENTS WERE UNRESTRICTED. THEY COULD CHARGE WHATEVER THEY

WANT, EVEN THOUGH THERE’S A BUNCH OF RENT STABILIZED UNITS IN THAT BUILDING. SO EVEN IF HE DIDN’T DO CALCULATIONS HIMSELF, THE ATTORNEY GENERAL’S OFFICE SAID DONALD TRUMP JR. IS RESPONSE BECAUSE HE SIGNED THE PAPERS. YOU KNOW, DO YOU THINK WE’LL SEE ALL KIDS TESTIFY? I JUST THINK IT’S INTERESTING.

HAVEN’T SEEN ANY PHOTO OPS LATELY WITH TRUMP AND HIS KIDS KNOW DURING HIS PRESIDENCY YOU SAW A LOT OF FAMILY TOGETHERS SOCIALLY AND PROFESSIONALLY. NOW JUST SORT OF SEEMS TO BE ON HIS OWN. WELL, CERTAINLY IVANKA TRUMP, EVER SINCE HER FATHER LEFT THE WHITE HOUSE, HAS TRIED TO AVOID

PUBLIC APPEARANCES WITH HIM. SHE NOT GO TO HIS KICKOFF FOR HIS CURRENT CAMPAIGN, BUT IS GOING TO HAVE TO TESTIFY HERE AS WELL, ALONG WITH HER BROTHER ERIC. BUT HER TESTIMONY IS LIKELY TO HAPPEN NEXT WEEK AND. THE ATTORNEY GENERAL’S OFFICE SAYS ALL THREE CHILDREN WERE WELL AWARE OF THEIR FATHER’S

DESIRE TO MAKE HIM SEEM RICHER THAN ACTUALLY WAS AND WERE DEEPLY INVOLVED, ESPECIALLY AFTER TRUMP BECAME PRESIDENT. IN THE THE INNER WORKINGS, THE TRUMP ORGANIZATION. SO EACH CHILD WOULD BE ABLE TO CALL THEM CHILDREN. THEY’RE ADULTS NOW, BUT EACH OF THEM ARE GOING TO HAVE TO TAKE THE STAND AND AT LEAST

BE ASKED QUESTIONS ABOUT PROPERTIES THEY WERE INVOLVED IN AND WHAT THEY KNEW ABOUT THE PREPARATION OF TRUMP’S FINANCIAL DOCUMENTS. >> AARON KATERSKY FOR US THERE IN NEW YORK. >> APPRECIATE IT, ERIN.

TODAY ON, ABC NEWS LIVE GETTING OUT OF GAZA. FIVE AMERICAN AID WORKERS ENTER ,EGYPT AS THE RAFAH BORDER FINALLY OPENS. WE’LL TAKE YOU THERE. TRUMP JUNIOR TAKING THE STAND AS HIS BOSS AT HIS FATHER’S CIVIL TRIAL, THREATENING THE FAMILY BUSINESS. WE’RE LIVE AT THE COURTHOUSE. GOOD AFTERNOON, EVERYONE. I’M KYRA PHILLIPS.

OUR TOP STORY THIS HOUR, HOWEVER, IS THE PALESTINIAN CHILDREN’S RELIEF FUND CONFIRMING. NOW TO ABC NEWS THAT FIVE AMERICAN AID WORKERS ARE SAFE. EGYPT, AFTER AN EXCRUCIATING LONG WAIT AT THE RAFAH BORDER CROSSING IN GAZA. THOSE FAMILIES OF EMILY CALLAHAN AND BARBARA ZIND, ACAMPORA, ALISON GRECO AND SAMANTHA HUNT BREATHING

A SIGH OF RELIEF AS THEY ARE ONE STEP CLOSER TO COMING HOME. AN ADDITIONAL 335 DUAL NATIONALS AND FOREIGNERS HAVE ALSO CROSSED THE BORDER ALONG WITH 17 AMBULANCES CARRYING AT LEAST 76 INJURED GAZANS. ALL OF THIS COMING AFTER THE HAMAS CONTROLLED HEALTH MINISTRY SAYS THERE WAS THERE WAS A SECOND AIRSTRIKE THERE

ON THE JABALYA REFUGEE CAMP. INES DE LA CUETARA JOINS US NOW FROM JERUSALEM WITH MORE. SO, INES, FIRST OF ALL, WHAT DO WE KNOW ABOUT THOSE WHO’VE CROSSED THE BORDER, INCLUDING THE FIVE U.S. AID WORKERS? HEY CURIOUS IS SOME REALLY GOOD NEWS THERE OUT OF ROSA ARAFA, THE RAFAH BORDER

CROSSING WITH PEOPLE FINALLY BEING ALLOWED TO LEAVE GAZA AND CROSS INTO EGYPT. THIS IS THE FIRST TIME THAT THE RAFAH BORDER CROSSING HAS OPENED UP TO PEOPLE SINCE OCTOBER 7TH AND A PRIORITY WAS GIVEN TO THE CRITICALLY INJURED. SO LIKE YOU SAY, AT LEAST 76 CRITICALLY INJURED PEOPLE WERE ABLE TO LEAVE GAZA,

HEAD INTO EGYPT. WE KNOW THAT THERE WERE AMBULANCES WAITING FOR THEM ON THE OTHER SIDE OF THE BORDER FIELD. HOSPITALS HAVE ALSO BEEN SET UP. AS FAR AS FOREIGN NATIONALS, WE DO KNOW THAT OTHER FOREIGN NATIONALS WERE ALSO ALLOWED TO LEAVE, INCLUDING THOSE FIVE AMERICAN NGO WORKERS.

THE LATEST NUMBERS WE WERE IT WAS 335 FOREIGN NATIONALS HAD BEEN ALLOWED TO LEAVE. THAT’S DOWN FROM THE 500 WE EXPECTED. SO WE’LL SEE IF THEY END UP MATCHING THAT 500 NUMBER. BUT AS OF YOU KNOW, JUST A FEW MOMENTS AGO, WE DID GET THAT 335 FOREIGN NATIONALS WERE ALLOWED TO LEAVE

AND HUMANITARIAN AID ALSO GETTING IN. SO AN ADDITIONAL 51 AID TRUCKS WERE ALLOWED TO GET INTO GAZA TODAY AS. THE U.S. CONTINUES TO PUT PRESSURE ON ISRAEL TO ALLOW FOR MORE HUMANITARIAN TO GET IN. BUT AGAIN, KYRA, WE’VE TALKED ABOUT THIS. THESE TRUCKS JUST A DROP THE OCEAN IN TERMS OF WHAT

IS NEEDED. PEOPLE IN GAZA ARE RUNNING OUT OF FOOD, FUEL MEDICAL SUPPLIES, WATER. AND IT USED TO BE THAT HUNDREDS TRUCKS EVERY DAY WOULD GO THROUGH THAT RAFAH CROSSING. SO 51 TRUCKS, YOU KNOW, GOOD NEWS, BUT STILL NOT ENOUGH IN TERMS OF WHAT IS ACTUALLY NEEDED. >> SO WHAT MORE ARE WE HEARING

FROM EGYPTIAN OFFICIALS AND COULD WE SEE OTHER PLAYERS, YOU THINK, IN THE ARAB WORLD HERE GET INVOLVED WITH REGARD TO TAKING IN REFUGEES? >> YES. SO INTERESTINGLY, QATAR IS, ACCORDING TO REUTERS, TRYING TO BROKER SOME KIND OF DEAL HERE, ISRAEL, HAMAS, EGYPT WITH U.S. COORDINATION TO FOR LIMITED EVACUATIONS OUT OF GAZA.

WELL, WE’LL HAVE TO SEE WHAT HAPPENS THERE. IT’S UNLIKELY WE’LL SEE ANY TYPE OF MASS EVACUATIONS. THE EGYPTIANS HAVE SHOWN NO INDICATION THAT THEY’RE WILLING TO TAKE IN MASSIVE NUMBERS OF PALESTINIAN REFUGEES FOR SEVERAL REASONS. SO ONE, OF COURSE, BEING RESOURCES THEY MAY NOT WANT TO HAVE TO DEAL WITH. YOU KNOW, HUNDREDS

OF THOUSANDS, MILLIONS OF PALESTINIAN REFUGEES ON EGYPTIAN TERRITORY TO BEING NATIONAL SECURITY. SO THE EGYPTIANS CONCERNED ABOUT POSSIBLY HAVING HAMAS MILITANTS POURING OUT OF GAZA SUPPORTERS INTO EGYPTIAN TERRITORY. AND THE THIRD REASON BEING THAT THEY DO NOT WANT TO BE SEEN AS AIDING IN ANY WAY RESETTLEMENT OF HUNDREDS OF THOUSANDS OF PALESTINIAN

REFUGEES, BECAUSE THAT ESSENTIALLY BE THE END OF THIS DREAM OF PALESTINIAN STATEHOOD, WHICH KNOW THAT EGYPT SUPPORTS. AND SAME GOES FOR JORDAN. SO UNLIKELY THAT JORDAN BE WOULD BE WILLING TO TAKE IN ANY PALESTINIAN REFUGEES AS WELL FOR THOSE SAME REASONS, KYRA. ALL RIGHT. WE ALSO SPOKE TO YESTERDAY

RIGHT AFTER THAT STRIKE, RATHER, IN THE JABALYA REFUGEE . NOW WE’RE HEARING REPORTS OF A SECOND ONE. WHAT MORE CAN YOU TELL US ABOUT THAT? >> YEAH SO THIS WOULD BE THE SECOND STRIKE ON THE JABALYA REFUGEE CAMP IN LESS THAN 24 HOURS. SO WE GOT NO CONFIRMATION FROM THE IDF.

THE IDF NOT COMMENTING YET ON THAT POSSIBLE SECOND STRIKE, BUT IT IS BEING REPORTED BY THE HAMAS RUN HEALTH MINISTRY. THEY’RE SAYING THAT TENS CIVILIANS MAY HAVE BEEN INJURED OR KILLED. WE’RE WAITING FOR EXACT THERE. BUT, YEAH, THIS COMES ON THE HEELS OF THAT MASSIVE BLAST YESTERDAY WE SAW THOSE HORRIFIC IMAGES.

THAT MASSIVE CRATER LEFT SURROUNDED BY MULTI-STORY BUILDINGS AND PEOPLE RUSHING TO AND FROM THE SCENE. WE UNDERSTAND THAT AT LEAST 52 PEOPLE WERE KILLED IN THAT BLAST. AGAIN, ACCORDING TO THE HAMAS RUN HEALTH MINISTRY, THE IDF SAID THAT THAT EXPLOSION WAS LINKED TO THEM TRYING TO TAKE OUT HAMAS MILITANTS THEY SAY

WERE OPERATING OUT OF THIS CAMP, OUT OF TUNNELS BENEATH THE REFUGEE CAMP. BUT THIS IS ONE OF THE MOST DENSELY POPULATED AREAS IN GAZA. THIS IS THE LARGEST REFUGEE CAMP IN GAZA. AND SO THEY ARE, YOU KNOW, TAKING OUT CIVILIANS IN THEIR PURSUIT OF THESE HAMAS MILITANTS. THEY DO SAY ONE OF

THE MILITANTS THEY TOOK OUT WAS A TOP HAMAS COMMANDER WHO THEY SAY WAS ONE OF THE MASTERMINDS BEHIND THE OCTOBER 7TH TERROR ATTACK. SO WAITING FOR MORE INFORMATION ON THAT SECOND STRIKE. BUT IF CONFIRMED, IT WOULD BE SECOND STRIKE ON THIS DENSELY POPULATED AREAS IN LESS THAN 24 HOURS KYRA.

ALL RIGHT, INES DE LA CUETARA. SARA, THANK YOU SO MUCH. WE’LL STAY IN CLOSE TOUCH. AND AS TENSIONS ESCALATE BETWEEN, ISRAEL AND HAMAS ORGANIZATIONS LIKE THE INTERNATIONAL COMMITTEE OF THE RED CROSS ARE HELPING PEOPLE SUFFERING ON BOTH SIDES OF THIS. AND WE’RE NOT JUST TALKING ABOUT AID.

THE RED CROSS IS ALSO A VITAL AGENCY WHEN IT COMES TO HUMANITARIAN HOSTAGE RELEASES. DIRECTOR GENERAL ROBERT MARDINI IS ON CAPITOL HILL. HE JOINS ME. ROBERT, SO GOOD TO SEE YOU. AND WE WILL GET TO WHAT ARE DOING HERE IN D.C. AND ON THE HILL IN JUST A MOMENT.

BUT FIRST, I JUST WANT TO GO TO OUR REPORTING THAT WE ■KNOW AT LEAST 335 DUAL NATIONALS AND FOREIGNERS, U.S. AID WORKERS AND AT LEAST 76 INJURED GAZANS HAVE NOW CROSSED THE RAFAH BORDER INTO EGYPT. CAN YOU TELL US ANYTHING ABOUT THEIR OVERALL WHAT YOU KNOW? AND DO YOU BELIEVE THAT THERE

WILL BE MORE THAT WILL BE ABLE TO CROSS OVER? THANK YOU FOR HAVING ME. WE WE HAVEN’T BEEN INVOLVED ICRC IN THIS IN THIS OPERATION, BUT WE WELCOME ANY MOVE, ANY CONCRETE MEASURE TO ALLEVIATE, SUCH AS EVACUATING, CRITICALLY INJURED PEOPLE TO GET MEDICAL TREATMENT. AND THEY SHOULD BE AS ADVOCATED

FROM THE VERY BEGINNING, A VERY FLUID THE FLOW AND ROTATION OF STAFF IN AND OUT FROM GAZA IN ORDER TO ENSURE A MEANINGFUL HUMANITARIAN RESPONSE ON THE GROUND. >> SO TELL US MORE THEN HOW THE ICRC IS WORKING TO GET MORE CIVILIANS OVER THE RAFAH BORDER AND EGYPT RIGHT NOW?

WELL, FOR NOW, OUR FOCUS IS TO PROVIDE AND TO SUPPORT EXISTING SERVICES IN THE GAZA STRIP, STARTING WITH THE PROVISION, MEDICAL SERVICES IN THE EXISTING HOSPITAL THAT ARE REALLY TODAY AT THE BREAKING POINT, THE NURSES DOCTORS ARE WORKING 24/7 AND ARE ABSORBING UNPRECEDENTED LEVEL OF MASS CASUALTIES.

AND I THINK THE PRIORITY FOR US AND OUR TEAMS ON THE GROUND IS TO PROVIDE THOSE HOSPITALS WITH THE BADLY SURGICAL EQUIPMENT, I.V. FLUID, ANESTHETICS TO SAVE LIVES WHERE THE WOUNDED ARE TODAY. >> THAT’S OUR FOCUS. ABLE TO GET A LOT OF THOSE SUPPLIES IN. TELL ME WHAT THE BIGGEST

CHALLENGE IS HAVE BEEN FOR YOU AT THIS MOMENT. I MEAN THE BIG CHALLENGE IS, IS, OF COURSE, GETTING ENOUGH AID IN AT THE LEVEL OF THE NEEDS TODAY. THE VERY FEW TRUCKS, 150 TRUCKS. SO FAR BEING ABLE TO ENTER INTO THE GAZA STRIP IS ONLY SMALL FRACTION OF WHAT IS NEEDED

AND MUCH MORE NEEDS TO BE DONE ON THAT FRONT. WE NEED MUCH MORE STAFF TO BE ABLE TO WORK. WE ALSO NEED REGULAR HUMANITARIAN POSES TO ALLOW FIRST AND TO PROVIDE RESPITE TO THE CIVILIAN POPULATION, BUT ALSO TO ALLOW HUMANITARIAN WORKERS SUCH AS THE ICRC THE PALESTINE RED CRESCENT

SOCIETY AND OTHER AGENCIES TO PROVIDE LIFESAVING SERVICES INSIDE THE STRIP WHERE. 2 MILLION PEOPLE LIVE UNDER TERRIBLE CONDITIONS. AND, ROBERT, WE WILL NEVER FORGET THOSE FIRST HOSTAGES FROM CHICAGO WHEN THEY WERE RELEASED. YOUR ORGANIZATION PLAYED A CRUCIAL ROLE IN THAT TO BRING THEM BACK SAFE.

TELL US MORE ABOUT THAT MOMENT, WHAT IT WAS LIKE FOR YOU AND AND WHAT YOUR STAFF DID THAT THAT JUST MADE YOU SO PROUD IN THAT MOMENT AS THE WORLD WATCHED? >> WE WERE ALL PROUD OF THAT MOMENT. LET ME START BY SAYING THAT THE PLIGHT OF HOSTAGES AND THEIR

FAMILIES REMAINS OUR TOP PRIORITY. WE’RE DOING EVERYTHING WE CAN TO BE ABLE TO VISIT THOSE HOSTAGES TO ENSURE AND TO CHECK ON THEIR HEALTH, TO ENSURE THAT THEY GET MEDICINES AND THAT THEY HAVE THE OPPORTUNITY TO EXCHANGE MESSAGES WITH THEIR FAMILIES. AND, OF COURSE, WE STAND READY TO MORE RELEASES AS SOON

AS NEGOTIATED AGREEMENTS ARE CONCLUDED BETWEEN THE PARTIES. SO WE WERE ABLE SO FAR TO FACILITATE THE RELEASE OF FOUR HOSTAGES. AND THOSE ARE, YOU KNOW, MOMENTS WHERE YOU SEE THAT IN THE WORSE CIRCUMSTANCES, THERE ARE STILL MOMENTS OF WHERE PARTIES AGREE ON ON ON ON CERTAIN THINGS THAT WILL BRING

RELIEF TO CIVILIANS, TO THEIR FAMILIES. AND MY COLLEAGUES BEARING AND FACILITATING THIS OPERATION WAS REALLY VERY AND THEY WERE VERY PROUD AND WE ARE VERY PROUD TO BE ABLE TO ACHIEVE THIS TYPE OF OPERATIONS AS WE ARE PROUD OF ANY EFFORTS WE ARE DOING TO ALLEVIATE THE HUMAN SUFFERING THAT IS

UNFOLDING IN THE GAZA STRIP TODAY. >> WELL, I THINK IT’S FAIR TO SAY WE ALL FEEL THAT WAY. AND WHEN YOU FACILITATE THESE TYPES RELEASES, ROBERT, YOU KNOW, YOU HAVE A VERY DELICATE DANCE OF REMAINING NEUTRAL, HAVING TO REMAIN NEUTRAL. YOU TO STAY IN CONTACT WITH HAMAS.

TELL US HOW YOU DO THAT WITH TRUST AND CONFIDENCE AND HOW YOU MAKE THE REQUEST THAT YOU DO WHILE KEEPING THINGS CIVIL AND SAFE? WELL, THAT’S A VERY IMPORTANT POINT. AND OUR LICENSE TO OPERATE WAR ZONES IS REALLY BASED ON DISTRUST WITH ALL PARTIES TO THE CONFLICT, TO THE STATES.

OF COURSE, ALSO NON-STATE ARMED GROUPS, INCLUDING HAMAS. AND THIS IS ALSO ABOUT BUILDING TRUST AND EQUITY, OF COURSE, NOT AGREEING TO EVERYTHING, HAVING THE ROBUST CONVERSATION IN PRIVATE. BUT THIS THIS DIALOG IS ABSOLUTELY CRITICAL TO ENSURE AND ENABLE AN IMPARTIAL AND NEUTRAL HUMANITARIAN ACTION TO ENABLE THAT MY COLLEAGUES ARE ABLE

TO VISIT DETAINEES TO ENABLE THAT WE CAN CROSS FRONTLINES AND DELIVER MOST HUMANITARIAN AID. AND THIS DIALOG IS STILL ONGOING TODAY. IT IS IT IS HARD. IT’S TAKING PLACE, OF COURSE, WITH ISRAELI OFFICIALS AND WITH HAMAS. AND WE’RE ALWAYS TRYING TO MOVE THE NEEDLE SO THAT THE CURSOR MOVES MORE TOWARDS

THE OBLIGATION OF PARTIES TO THE CONFLICT TO TAKE PRECAUTIONS AND TO PROTECT CIVILIANS FROM HARM RATHER THAN TO FOCUS EXCLUSIVELY ON MILITARY OBJECTIVES. >> AND ROBERT, I THINK IT’S SO IMPORTANT TO FOLLOW UP ON ON MORE PERSPECTIVE ON HOW YOU DO THAT, BECAUSE AS YOU KNOW, THIS IS SUCH A SENSITIVE, FRAGILE

SITUATION AND THERE’S SO MUCH HATE THAT WE ARE WITNESSING AROUND THE THIS IS FUELED BY HATE, YET YOU CAN REMAIN AND CALM AND ACTUALLY GET EVERYBODY TOGETHER AND BRINGING HOSTAGES BACK SAFELY, WHICH IS TRULY REMARKABLE. COULD YOU JUST GIVE INSIGHT AS AS VIEWERS HOW YOU DO THAT HOW YOU MANAGED TO DO

THAT WHEN THIS THIS THIS SUCH A VOLATILE SITUATION? WE WATCHED PEOPLE KIDNAPPED. WE HEAR THEM BEING TORTURED. WE HEAR OF THEM BEING KILLED. YET YOU ARE ABLE TO FACILITATE CONVERSATIONS WITH BOTH PARTIES AND REMAIN NEUTRAL. >> HOW DO YOU DO THAT? IT’S ABOUT CALLING ON THE HUMANITY THAT EXISTS IN EVERYONE, INCLUDING

ALL PARTIES TO THE CONFLICT, INCLUDING AT A TIME WHERE EMOTIONS ARE RUNNING HIGH, WHERE WHERE OUTRAGE IS UNDERSTANDABLE ON BOTH SIDES. BUT AND THE TOOL FOR THIS IS ARE THE GENEVA CONVENTIONS. THOSE HAVE BEEN REALLY THOUGHT RATIFIED ADOPTED BY ALL COUNTRIES ON EARTH PRECISELY TO THAT IN THE WORST

OF CIRCUMSTANCES, IN THE DARKEST MOMENTS OF HUMANITY. STILL, THERE IS THE MINIMUM TO ALLEVIATE HUMAN SUFFERING IN WAR. AND THERE ARE VERY PRACTICAL RULES. AND WHEN THOSE RULES ARE RESPECTED, THEY REDUCE HUMANITARIAN NEEDS, THEY ALLEVIATE SUFFERING. AND THIS IS WHAT WE DO EVERY DAY IN MORE THAN 100 EXISTING ARMED CONFLICTS ACROSS

THE GLOBE, INCLUDING IN ISRAEL AND THE GAZA STRIP. >> SO GLAD TO HAVE YOU WITH US TODAY. AND KEEP US POSTED ON EVERYTHING THAT. YOU ARE ACCOMPLISHING THERE ON THE HILL AND HERE IN D.C. WE APPRECIATE YOU. THANK YOU. >> THANK YOU FOR HAVING ME. AND BACK HERE AT HOME, DONALD TRUMP JR.

SET TO TESTIFY IN HIS FATHER’S CIVIL FRAUD TRIAL. DON JR. NAMED AS A DEFENDANT IN THE $250 MILLION LAWSUIT BROUGHT BY THE NEW YORK AG’S OFFICE. IT ACCUSES HIM AND HIS BROTHER ERIC OF KNOWINGLY PARTICIPATING A SCHEME TO INFLATE THEIR FATHER’S NET WORTH SO THEY COULD OBTAIN BETTER BENEFITS. NBC INVESTIGATIVE PRODUCER

AND REPORTER OLIVIA OUTSIDE COURT IN NEW YORK THERE WITH MORE. OLIVIA, WHAT’S THE LATEST FROM COURT TODAY? WELL, KYRA, SEEMS WE’RE STILL BIT OF A WAYS AWAY FROM WHEN DON JR IS GOING TO TESTIFY. OF COURSE, EVERYONE HERE IS WAITING FOR OF THIS MORNING . WE HAVE SPENT THE DAY LISTENING

TO TESTIMONY FROM ONE OF THE STATE’S EXPERT WITNESSES AS THE STATE JUST WRAPPED UP WITH HIM. AND NOW IT’S DONALD TRUMP’S ATTORNEY’S TURN TO CROSS-EXAMINE HIM. AND THEY HAVE ESTIMATED THAT THEY NEED 2 TO 3 HOURS TO CROSS-EXAMINE THIS WITNESS HERE, A MUCH TO THE SORT OF IRE OF THE JUDGE WHO ESSENTIALLY

HAS BEEN ASKING THEM TO SPEED IT ALONG, SAYING THAT THERE’S NO REASON IT SHOULD TAKE 2 TO 3 HOURS AND ESSENTIALLY TELLING THE DEFENSE ATTORNEY ONE POINT THAT THEY WERE TURNING WHAT SHOULD BE ONE QUESTION INTO FOUR QUESTIONS. SO ALREADY A LITTLE BIT OF HEAT FLYING HERE AS THE JUDGE IS

STILL CLEARLY TRYING TO MOVE IT ALONG TO GET TO THAT WITNESS THAT EVERYONE IS WAITING FOR HERE AT DON JR. SO MOVING ALONG IN, LUNCH BREAK NOW. WHEN WE COME BACK, WE’LL SEE MORE TESTIMONY FROM THE EXPERT. AND THEN ONCE HE IS DONE, THEN WE’LL GET DON JUNIOR ON THE STAND.

>> SO WHAT EXACTLY HAS DONALD JUNIOR BEEN DOING SINCE ALL OF THIS HAS BEGUN? AND JUST GOING BACK TO HIS INVOLVEMENT IN THE TRUMP ORGANIZED MOTION, WE HAVEN’T HEARD MUCH FROM HIM SINCE THIS ALL BEGAN. WE HAVEN’T EXCEPT SORT OF ON SOCIAL MEDIA LIKE WE DO A NUMBER OF MEMBERS OF THE

TRUMP FAMILY. BUT REMEMBER, DON JUNIOR IS ONE OF THE TOP EXECUTIVES AT THE TRUMP OREGON. HE STEPPED IN ESSENTIALLY ONE OF THE LEADERS OF THE COMPANY WHEN HIS FATHER BECAME PRESIDENT OF THE UNITED STATES. AND STILL TO THIS DAY, KYRA, HE HOLDS A LEADERSHIP POSITION AT THE COMPANY.

HE IS CERTAIN TO FACE QUESTIONS ABOUT WHAT HIS ROLE WAS THEN, SPECIFICALLY IN SOME OF THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS THAT THE ATTORNEY GENERAL SAYS WERE FRAUDULENT AND THAT WERE INTENTIONALLY FRAUDULENT IN ORDER TO GAIN THE FAVORABLE LOANS AND THE FAVORABLE TAX RATE. SO I’M SURE HE’LL FACE QUESTIONS THAT HE’LL FACE QUESTIONS ABOUT WHAT

SPECIFICALLY HE SAID WITH HIS FATHER AND CREATING THOSE STATEMENTS, BECAUSE, REMEMBER, HE’S JUST AN EXECUTIVE HERE. HE IS A TRUMP FAMILY MEMBER. SO REALLY, YOU DON’T GET MORE OF AN INSIDER IN THE COMPANY AND IN THE THAN HIM. AND WHAT DO YOU THINK WE CAN NEXT IN THIS CASE?

WHO’S GOING TO TAKE THE STAND? AND I GUESS WE COULD HEAR FROM MORE FAMILY MEMBERS. ABSOLUTELY, DON. IT’S GOING TO SET OFF OF A ONE OFF FOR ANOTHER WHO’S WHO OF THE TRUMP FAMILY. HE’S DONE HIS BROTHER, ERIC, IS GOING TO TAKE THE STAND. THAT’S GOING TO GIVE WAY

TO DONALD TRUMP HIMSELF, TAKING THE STAND ON MONDAY. AND THEN FINALLY, IVANKA. SHE HAD TRIED TO GET OUT OF TESTIFYING, BUT THE JUDGE ULTIMATELY RULED THAT SHE DID HAVE TO. SO WE’RE GETTING NOW WHAT IS ESSENTIALLY ONE OF THE MOST CRITICAL WEEKS IN THE ATTORNEY GENERAL’S CASE TO HEAR

FROM THE FOUR TRUMP FAMILY MEMBERS THEMSELVES. AFTER WEEKS OF TESTIMONY, FINANCIAL DOCUMENTS FROM BANKERS AND INSURANCE MEMBERS, WE ARE NOW GETTING INTO THE CENTRAL CASE, THE TRUMPS THEMSELVES. AND THAT CERTAINLY WHAT EVERYONE IS WAITING TO HEAR. ALL RIGHT, LYDIA RUBIN THERE IN NEW YORK. IT’LL BE INTERESTING TO FOLLOW,

THAT’S FOR SURE. THANK YOU SO MUCH. AND COMING UP, BORROWERS, BEWARE. THE EDUCATION DEPARTMENT SCRAMBLING TO FIX THE PROBLEMATIC RESTART OF STUDENT LOAN PAYMENTS UP NEXT. WHO WILL SUFFER THE CONSEQUENCES? >> TONIGHT, THE CYCLE OF VIOLENCE AS FACES THE THREAT OF A REGIONAL WAR. PLUS, FORMER PRESIDENT TRUMP’S

CHILDREN TAKE THE STAND AND A CASE AGAINST HIM. MORE AMERICANS TURN TO THE MOST WATCHED NEWSCAST ON ALL OF TELEVISION. “WORLD NEWS TONIGHT”, DAVID MUIR, DAVID GAVE IT TO ME. HE LEFT ME WITH GOOD, BAD PICTURES ON THE LEFT. BUT SO FAR, A LITTLE BIT OF SUNSHINE ON SOMETHING. A BIT MORE.

THE UNBOXING SHE AND THIS IS “IMPACT X NIGHTLINE” NOW STREAMING ON HULU. >> GLAD YOU’RE STREAMING WITH US. IT’S GOING TO BE A CASH CRUNCH CUSTOMER SERVICE NIGHTMARE AND STUDENT LOAN BORROWERS ARE TO SUFFER THE CONSEQUENCES. AND ON TOP OF ALL THAT, THE DEPARTMENT OF EDUCATION THAT ROUGHLY 830,000

PEOPLE MISSED THEIR FIRST PAYMENTS AFTER A LOAN SERVICE FAILED TO SEND OUT TIMELY NOTICES TO MORE THAN 2 MILLION BORROWERS. ALSO, 21,000 PEOPLE RECEIVED INCORRECT BILLS. OH, AND ADDING EVEN MORE SALT TO THE WOUND, 16,000 MORE PEOPLE RECEIVED BILLS DESPITE THE BITE CANCELING THEIR DEBT. >> FOR MORE, BRING IN OUR

ABC NEWS CORRESPONDENT ELIZABETH SCHULZE TO TALK ABOUT A HOT MESS. WHAT ARE THEY GOING TO DO TO FIX IT, ELIZABETH? RIGHT HERE. IN SOME WAYS, GLITCHES AREN’T UNEXPECTED GIVEN THE FACT THAT THERE WAS THIS MORE THAN THREE YEAR PAUSE ON THOSE FEDERAL STUDENT LOAN PAYMENTS FROM, THE GOVERNMENT AND THEN

DURING THAT TIME, 20 MILLION PEOPLE SAW THEIR LOAN SWITCH, LOAN SERVICER SWITCH OVER. PART OF THE REASON WHY SOME OF THE LOAN SERVICERS DURING THE PANDEMIC WENT OUT OF BUSINESS. >> SO THIS KIND OF DELUGE OF PEOPLE COMING BACK ONLINE AND MAKING THOSE PAYMENTS AFTER THREE YEARS, IT WAS EXPECTED

TO BE A LITTLE BIT CHAOTIC. BUT WHAT LEARNED IS THAT A TOTAL OF 1.3 MILLION PEOPLE ARE SUFFERING FROM SOME SORT OF BILLING ERROR. THEY WERE NOTIFIED THE WRONG AMOUNT OF THEIR PAYMENTS. THEY DIDN’T GET THEIR PAYMENTS AT ALL AND THEY DIDN’T GET THEIR OR THEY DIDN’T GET THE NOTIFICATION ON TIME.

SO WHAT THE GOVERNMENT IS TRYING TO DO NOW, AND THIS IS A KEY STEP THAT THE ADMINISTRATION HAS ANNOUNCED, KNOWING THIS MIGHT BE A LITTLE BIT CHAOTIC COMING BACK IS THERE IS A ONE YEAR GRACE PERIOD WHERE IF YOU’RE A BORROWER WITH STUDENT FEDERAL STUDENT LOANS AND YOU MISS

A PAYMENT OVER NEXT YEAR, YOU WILL NOT BE HELD DELINQUENT. NOW, IMPORTANTLY THOUGH, DURING THAT TIME YOU’RE STILL GOING TO HAVE INTEREST GOING UP. YOU’RE STILL GOING TO SEE YOUR BALANCE ON LOANS GO UP. SO IT’S NOT LIKE THIS IS JUST A FREEZE HAS BEEN EXTENDED FOR ANOTHER YEAR, BUT IT DOES

GIVE A LITTLE BIT OF BREATHING ROOM TO TRY TO SORT THESE ISSUES OUT AND. WE’RE FINDING THAT THAT BREATHING ROOM ISN’T JUST HELPING THE BORROWERS, BUT IT’S ALSO HELPING SERVICERS WHO HAVE PLENTY OF THEIR OWN ISSUES, TOO KYRA. ALL RIGHT. SO THIS IS THE FIRST INSTANCE, RIGHT, OF THE GOVERNMENT WITHHOLDING PAYMENT FROM

A STUDENT LOAN SERVICER? SO HOW UNUSUAL IS THIS PROTOCOL? IT’S PRETTY UNUSUAL. AND THE SERVICES THAT WE’RE TALKING ABOUT HERE IS MAHELA. A LOT OF PEOPLE WITH STUDENT LOANS WILL KNOW NAME VERY WELL, AND THEY’LL HAVE HAD PROBABLY HAD THEIR OWN ISSUES GETTING THROUGH TO THE COMPANY. AND WE’VE WE’VE BEEN HEARING

NOT JUST SOME OF THESE BILLING ERRORS, GETTING A PERSON ON THE OTHER SIDE ON THE PHONE, GETTING IN TOUCH WITH THEM. THESE ERRORS IN THE FIRST PLACE IS PROVING TO BE DIFFICULT. SO WHAT THE EDUCATION IS DOING IS IT’S BASICALLY USING ITS LEVERAGE. IT HAS THIS CONTRACT, MAHELA,

LIKE IT DOES WITH OTHER LOAN SERVICERS. AND THE GOVERNMENT IS SAYING, HEY, GET YOUR ACT TOGETHER, WE DO BUSINESS WITH YOU AND WE’RE SENDING YOU A WARNING THAT YOU NEED TO GET IN LINE AND THE EDUCATION IS SAYING THIS SHOULD SEND A STRONG MESSAGE NOT JUST TO MAHELA, WHICH BY THE WAY,

HAS NOT RESPONDED TO OUR REQUESTS FOR COMMENT, BUT TO SOME OF THE OTHER SERVICERS FOR THEM TO GET THEIR ACT IN LINE TO KYRA. SO THE BIDEN ADMINISTRATION IS PLANNING ANOTHER STAB AT STUDENT LOAN FORGIVENESS UNDER THE HIGHER ACT. DO YOU HAVE ANYTHING MORE ON THIS PROPOSAL, WHAT IT WOULD

ENTAIL AND WILL IT WORK? >> WELL, WE HAVE LEARNED THAT WEEK THE EDUCATION DEPARTMENT IS CONVENING A MEETING WITH LEGAL EXPERTS, WITH DEBT RELIEF ADVOCATES TO TRY FIGURE OUT A PLAN B FOR THIS BROADER STUDENT LOAN DEBT . AND, OF COURSE, IT’S A PLAN B BECAUSE PRESIDENT BIDEN PROPOSED WIDE RANGING PLAN

THAT WOULD HAVE CANCELED UP TO $20,000 IN STUDENT LOAN DEBT FOR MILLIONS OF BORROWERS. BUT THAT PLAN WAS STRUCK DOWN BY THE SUPREME COURT. TYPICALLY, THIS PROCESS WOULD TAKE MORE THAN A YEAR. IT’S GOING TO TAKE SOME TIME FOR THEM TO FIGURE OUT HOW TO MAKE THIS HAPPEN THROUGH

THE HIGHER EDUCATION ACT. BUT THE REALITY IS THERE IS A POLITICAL PRESSURE HERE. THIS IS AN ISSUE THAT THE PRESIDENT HAS CAMPAIGNED ON AND THEY’RE TRYING TO EXPEDITE THIS AS FAST AS THEY CAN. ALL RIGHT, ELIZABETH SCHULZE, THANK YOU SO MUCH. >> AND COMING UP. SEE YOU LATER, SANTOS.

WELL, THE HOUSE COUTHER TO EXPEL THE INDICTED LAWMAKER. WE’VE GOT THE DETAILS NEXT. >> I GOT SENT TO IDAHO TO COVER THE MURDERS OF FOUR COLLEGE STUDENTS. IT WAS A STORY THAT DIDN’T MAKE ANY SENSE. FOUR STUDENTS STABBED TO DEATH IN THEIR BEDS WHILE TWO ROOMMATES WERE HOME.

ARE NOW SAFE IN EGYPT AFTER AN EXCRUCIATING WAIT THERE AT THE RAFAH BORDER CROSSING IN GAZA. INES DE LA CUETARA JOINING US NOW FROM JERUSALEM WITH MORE SO INÉS ISRAEL NOW ACKNOWLEDGING THIS SECOND AIRSTRIKE THERE ON THE REFUGEE CAMP. WHAT MORE DO WE KNOW ABOUT THE BLAST? HEY, GUYS.

YEAH, SO INTERESTINGLY, THE IDF HASN’T PUBLICLY SPOKEN ABOUT THIS SECOND BLAST. IN FACT, THERE WAS AN IDF BRIEFING MOMENTS AGO WITH IDF SPOKESPERSON DANIEL HAGAR. HE MADE MENTION OF THE JABALYA REFUGEE CAMP. BUT IN RESPONSE TO QUESTION FROM ABC, WE DID GET A STATEMENT FROM THE IDF THAT THEY ARE BEHIND THE SECOND

STRIKES THAT THEY SAY IN THE STATEMENT EARLIER TODAY, BASED ON PRECISE INTELLIGENCE, IDF FIGHTER JETS STRUCK A HAMAS COMMAND AND CONTROL COMPLEX IN JABALYA. WE CAN CONFIRM THAT HAMAS TERRORISTS WERE ELIMINATED IN THE STRIKE. THEY DO NOT REALLY MAKE ANY MENTION THE CIVILIAN CASUALTIES HERE. THEY GO ON TO REITERATE

THEIR CALLS FOR CIVILIANS TO LEAVE NORTHERN GAZA AND HEAD SOUTH. AND THAT’S SIMILAR TO WHAT WE HEARD FROM THE IDF YESTERDAY WHEN THEY CONFIRMED THAT THEY WERE BEHIND THAT MASSIVE YESTERDAY ON THE JABALYA REFUGEE CAMP. THE IDF SAYING THEY WERE AFTER TERRORISTS THERE, INCLUDING A TOP HAMAS COMMANDER WHO SAY

WAS ONE OF THE MASTERMINDS BEHIND THE OCTOBER 7TH TERROR ATTACK. AND AGAIN, IN THAT STATEMENT, THEY MADE NO MENTION OF CIVILIAN CASUALTIES, AGAIN REITERATED THEIR CALLS FOR CIVILIANS TO MOVE SOUTH. SO WE KNOW YESTERDAY AT LEAST 52 PEOPLE WERE KILLED, ACCORDING TO THE HAMAS RUN HEALTH MINISTRY. WE’RE STILL WAITING FOR EXACT

NUMBERS WHEN IT COMES TO THIS STRIKE. BUT THE JABALYA REFUGEE CAMP, ONE OF THE MOST DENSELY POPULATED AREAS IN GAZA AND THE LARGEST REFUGEE CAMP IN GAZA. >> AND I WANT TO ASK YOU ABOUT THE RAFAH BORDER CROSSING, THE BORDER BETWEEN GAZA AND EGYPT. PEOPLE FORGET THAT EGYPT

IS CONTROLLED OF THE GAZA BORDER AS WELL AND HAVE BEEN OBVIOUSLY FOR SECURITY REASONS AND OTHER REASONS, KEEPING IT SHUT. U.S. STATE DEPARTMENT WARNS THERE ARE AS MANY AS A THOUSAND AMERICANS STILL TRYING TO GET OUT OF GAZA, EVEN THOUGH IT LIKE THE PACE IS PICKING UP. WHAT DO WE KNOW ABOUT A

TIMELINE? YEAH, TERRY, SO SOME GREAT NEWS THERE. THE FACT THAT THIS BORDER CROSSING HAS REOPENED TO PEOPLE. THIS IS THE FIRST TIME THAT PEOPLE ARE BEING ALLOWED OUT OF GAZA SINCE OCTOBER 7TH. THE HOLDUP WAS THAT ISRAEL, HAMAS AND EGYPT REALLY COULDN’T AGREE HERE ON ANY KIND OF DEAL.

SO THEY HAVE FINALLY REACHED A DEAL. WE DID SEE PEOPLE LEAVING. PRIORITY IS BEING GIVEN TO THE CRITICALLY WOUNDED. WE UNDERSTAND AT LEAST 76 CRITICALLY INJURED PALESTINIANS HAVE BEEN TAKEN OUT OF GAZA AND TRANSFERRED TO MEDICAL FACILITIES IN EGYPT . THERE WERE AMBULANCES WAITING FOR THEM ON THE OTHER SIDE

OF THE BORDER. EGYPT ALSO SETTING UP FIELD HOSPITALS THERE ON THE OTHER SIDE OF THE RAFAH BORDER CROSSING. FOREIGN NATIONALS ARE ALSO BEING ALLOWED OUT. SO WE UNDERSTAND AT LEAST 335 FOREIGN NATIONALS HAVE BEEN ALLOWED OUT, INCLUDING FIVE AMERICAN NGO WORKERS. BUT LIKE YOU SAY, WE DON’T REALLY KNOW WHAT’S GOING

TO HAPPEN. THE OTHER AMERICANS THAT ARE CURRENTLY STILL TRAPPED IN GAZA, ACCORDING TO THE STATE DEPARTMENT, THERE ARE AT LEAST 400 AMERICAN CITIZENS CURRENTLY IN GAZA. AND TOGETHER WITH THEIR FAMILIES, THAT’S ABOUT A THOUSAND PEOPLE THAT THE STATE DEPARTMENT IS TRYING TO GET OUT. SO WE’LL SEE. WE KNOW SOME OF THESE

PEOPLE HAVE BEEN TOLD TO MOVE CLOSE TO THE BORDER CROSSING TO BE READY TO GO AT A MOMENT’S NOTICE SHOULD THE BORDER CROSSING OPEN AGAIN. SO WE’RE KEEPING AN EYE ON THAT. AND THEN, OF COURSE, AID TRUCKS MOVING INTO GAZA AS WELL, MORE AID TRUCKS MOVING

IN TODAY, BUT STILL JUST A DROP IN THE OCEAN IN TERMS OF WHAT’S NEEDED WITH PEOPLE IN GAZA. OF COURSE, RUNNING OUT OF FOOD, FUEL AND MEDICAL SUPPLIES AS WELL. SO SECRETARY STATE ANTONY BLINKEN SET TO VISIT ISRAEL ONCE AGAIN. WHAT’S ON HIS AGENDA THIS TIME AROUND? >> THAT’S RIGHT. YES.

WE UNDERSTAND THAT THE SECRETARY OF STATE WILL RETURN TO ISRAEL ON FRIDAY. THIS WILL BE YET ANOTHER TRIP TO ISRAEL. HE’S MADE A NUMBER HERE IN RECENT DAYS. HE FIRST CAME TO ISRAEL SHORTLY AFTER THE WAR, BROKE OUT, THEN WENT TO VISIT OTHER STATES IN THE REGION, HEADED BACK TO ISRAEL.

SO THIS WILL BE REALLY HIS HIS THIRD VISIT TO ISRAEL SINCE THE WAR OUT. HE’S GOING TO BE MEETING WITH ISRAELI LEADERS TO DISCUSS THE WAR. WE KNOW THIS COMES AS THE U.S. HAS BEEN PUTTING PRESSURE ON ISRAEL TO ALLOW FOR MORE HUMANITARIAN AID TO GET INTO GAZA.

THE U.S. ALSO TRYING TO FIND A WAY OUT FOREIGN NATIONALS IN GAZA, BUT ALSO FOR HOSTAGES. WE KNOW AMERICANS ARE AMONG THE HOSTAGES. THEY’RE BEING DETAINED BY HAMAS SO THAT ALL OF THAT TAKES A LOT OF DIPLOMACY AND NEGOTIATING WITH NEIGHBORING COUNTRIES. AND WE UNDERSTAND, ACCORDING TO THE STATE DEPARTMENT,

THAT SECRETARY BLINKEN ALSO BE HEADING TO OTHER COUNTRIES. WE’RE NOT QUITE SURE WHICH COUNTRIES HE’LL GO TO. WE KNOW LAST TIME AROUND HE WENT TO EGYPT, SAUDI ARABIA ,JORDAN. SO WE’LL SEE WHAT HAPPENS THERE. AND I DO WANT TO FLAG ALSO COMMENTS THAT BLINKEN MADE YESTERDAY DURING A SENATE HEARING WHEN HE TALKED

ABOUT HOW A REVITALIZED PALESTINIAN AUTHORITY COULD RUN GAZA AFTER THE WAR. AND SO I’M CURIOUS TO SEE IF BLINKEN DURING HIS VISIT TO ISRAEL DECIDES TO MAYBE MEET WITH PALESTINIAN AUTHORITY LEADERS. WE’LL HAVE TO SEE. WE KNOW PRESIDENT BIDEN WAS SET TO MEET WITH MAHMOUD ABBAS AND THEN THAT ENDED UP BEING CANCELED.

SO KEEPING CLOSE EYE ON THAT AS WELL. ALL RIGHT, INES DE LA CUETARA, THANK YOU SO MUCH. >> THANK YOU. AND AS WELL, A CORNELL UNIVERSITY STUDENT IS IN CUSTODY CHARGED BY THE DEPARTMENT OF JUSTICE WITH MAKING VIOLENT ANTI-SEMITIC THREATS. INVESTIGATORS SAY PATRICK DAI WAS ARRESTED YESTERDAY, ACCUSED OF ONLINE THREAT

AGAINST JEWISH STUDENTS, INCLUDING AND MURDER. THE DOJ ALSO SAYS DI THREATENED TO BRING AN ASSAULT RIFLE TO CAMPUS TO SHOOT JEWS. >> THIS COMES AMID A SADDENING SURGE, ANTI-SEMITIC THREATS AND HATE CRIMES ACROSS THE U.S. AND TODAY, ATTORNEY GENERAL MERRICK GARLAND EVEN DOUBLED DOWN HIS PROMISE THAT THE DOJ

WILL COMBAT THESE ACTS OF HATE, TELLING JEWISH AMERICANS YOU ARE NOT ALONE. AMANDA SILVERSTEIN IS A SOPHOMORE AT CORNELL AND IS ON THE BOARD OF THE CENTER FOR JEWISH LIFE. AMANDA, GLAD YOU COULD BE WITH US. >> YES, THANK YOU FOR JOINING US. AMANDA, THIS IS SUCH A DISTURBING STORY.

HOW ARE YOU AND YOUR CLASSMATES DOING IN OF THIS? AND WHAT’S THE MOOD THERE ON CORNELL’S CAMPUS RIGHT NOW? >> I THINK THAT EVERYONE IS JUST A LITTLE OVERWHELMED, SHOCK, ACTUALLY FINDING OUT THAT IT WAS A CORNELL STUDENT, DESPITE ANY ANY POSSIBILITY THAT HIS REMARKS ONLINE, HOWEVER VIOLENT THEY WERE

TOWARDS ME AND MY COMMUNITY, THAT THEY COULD HAVE STEMMED FROM A PLACE OF ISOLATION, DEPRESSION, STILL BEING ABLE TO FINALLY UNDERSTAND THAT IT WAS, IN FACT A CORNELL STUDENT, SOMEONE WE CLASS WITH EVERY DAY WHO POSED THESE THREATS TO OUR LIVES IS REALLY SHOCKING. AND WE’RE ALL JUST KNOW TRYING

TO FIGURE OUT HOW TO COPE WITH IT AND TO UNDERSTAND REALLY HAPPENED. SO YOUR UNIVERSITY’S PRESIDENT ALERTED THE COMMUNITY ABOUT THE ANTI-SEMITIC THREATS MADE ONLINE AND YOUR EXPERIENCE AS A JEWISH STUDENT. I MEAN, HOW BAD HAS THIS GOTTEN? HOW MUCH WORSE HAS THIS GOTTEN SINCE THE HAMAS ATTACK ON OCTOBER 7TH?

>> SO PRIOR TO OCTOBER 7TH, I PERSONALLY HAD NEVER EXPERIENCED ANTI-SEMITISM ON CAMPUS. WE REALLY DO HAVE AN AMAZING JEWISH COMMUNITY HERE AT CORNELL THAT HAS GROWN SUBSTANTIALLY IN RECENT YEARS. HOWEVER, SINCE OCTOBER 7TH, THERE HAVE BEEN MANY INSTANCES WHERE THERE WERE OUTWARD CASES OF ANTI-SEMITISM, INCLUDING OUR OF HOSTAGES, LITTLE KIDS

BEING TORN DOWN OR VANDALIZED WITH THE WORDS VERY HAMAS WRITTEN OVER THEM. THERE HAVE BEEN CASES OF GRAFFITI ALL OVER CAMPUS WITH THE WORDS ISRAEL. ZIONISM IS AND FREE PALESTINE WRITTEN ALL OVER CAMPUS. AND, YOU KNOW, THE UNIVERSITY DID ACT TO REMOVE THEM, BUT IT TOOK TIME AND HAVING TO WALK

TO CLASS, SEEING THAT WAS REALLY STRIKING. ADDITIONALLY THERE WERE CHANTS OF FROM THE RIVER PALACE FROM THE RIVER TO THE SEA. PALESTINE WILL BE FREE AT VARIOUS RALLIES AROUND CAMPUS, WHICH ESSENTIALLY CALLS FOR DESTRUCTION OF ISRAEL, WHICH IS SITUATED IN BETWEEN THE JORDAN RIVER AND THE MEDITERRANEAN SEA.

>> SO ARE YOU TAKING MORE PRECAUTIONS TO PROTECT YOURSELF? YEAH, EVEN. EVEN FAMILY MEMBERS WHO ARE IN ISRAEL KEEP CHECKING IN WITH ME. >> THEY’RE MORE ABOUT MY SAFETY HERE ON AN AMERICAN COLLEGE CAMPUS THAN, YOU KNOW, THEY’RE WORRIED ABOUT THEIR OWN SAFETY BEING IN ISRAEL RIGHT NOW AND TELLING ME, DON’T

ENGAGE WITH THE PROTESTERS. YOU KNOW, SAFE. I ACTUALLY PERSONALLY HAVE A JEWISH FLAG AN ISRAELI FLAG STICKER ON MY WATER BOTTLE. AND I THOUGHT TO MYSELF, YOU KNOW, TRYING TO HIDE IT SOMETIMES WHEN WALKING BY THESE RALLIES OUT OF FEAR FOR MY OWN SAFETY. I MEAN, THAT’S INSANE. YEAH.

BOTH OF US ARE SITTING HERE JUST I MEAN, ESPECIALLY AS PARENTS, YOU KNOW, I MEAN, AND THINK I MEAN, WE DIDN’T EVEN. UNFATHOMABLE THAT YOU’RE YOU FEEL THAT THEY FEEL YOU’RE YOU’RE NOT SAFE ON A U.S. COLLEGE CAMPUS WORSE OFTEN THAN THEY ARE IN ISRAEL. I MEAN THAT JUST HAMMERS HOME

AND IF I MAY DRILL DOWN ON THAT, IS IT SOMETHING THAT STUDENTS BROUGHT TO CORNELL OR SOMETHING ABOUT WHAT WHAT PEOPLE OBSERVE AS THE TEACHING IN MANY CAMPUSES ABOUT ABOUT ABOUT ISRAEL, ABOUT OTHER THINGS? IS THIS WHAT IS GOING ON? SO I HAVEN’T TAKEN ANY OF THOSE COURSES RELATED TO THE TOPIC.

I CAN’T SPEAK SPECIFICALLY TO WHAT, YOU KNOW, TEACHERS WHO DEAL WITH THIS EVERY DAY ARE SAYING ABOUT THE ISSUE IN THEIR CLASSES. BUT, YOU KNOW, WE HAVE HEARD HISTORY PROFESSORS ON CAMPUS, YOU KNOW, COMMENDING HAMAS FOR CARRYING OUT THESE ATTACKS FOR, YOU KNOW, AND BURNING, WHICH IS REALLY STRIKING AND,

YOU KNOW, CAN MAKE ME WONDER, YOU KNOW, WHAT THOSE STUDENTS ARE THINKING WHEN THAT IS THEIR PROFESSOR WHO IS IN IN A SENSE, INDOCTRINATING THEM TO BELIEVE THAT, YOU KNOW, ISRAEL IS SOME SORT OF MONSTER AND THAT, YOU KNOW, ACCORDING TO THAT ALL JEWS ARE MONSTERS WHO SHOULD BE ELIMINATED.

>> ARE THEY REALLY THAT IGNORANT. DO YOU REALLY THINK THEY ARE THAT IGNORANT? >> WHEN I HEAR PEOPLE CHANTING FROM THE RIVER TO SEA ALL OVER CAMPUS, YOU KNOW, MY FIRST THOUGHT ISN’T LIKE, OH, I HATE YOU REALLY WANT TO SEE ME DEAD? YOU KNOW, MY FIRST THOUGHT

IS THAT THE MAJORITY OF THE PEOPLE HAVE NO IDEA WHAT THEY’RE SAYING. THEY GENUINELY DO NOT UNDERSTAND THE ISSUES AT HAND. MAYBE SEE PICTURES OF, YOU KNOW, INJURED PALESTINIANS RIGHT NOW IN GAZA WHICH, YOU KNOW, MAKES MY HEART HURT AS WELL. AND IT IS UNDERSTANDABLE SOMEONE COULD LOOK AT THOSE

IMAGES AND FEEL PAIN FOR THE PALESTINIAN PEOPLE, ASSUME THAT ISRAEL IS THE ULTIMATE OPPRESSOR. BUT A OF THE PEOPLE WHO ATTEND THESE RALLIES, WHO CHANT THESE HARMFUL SLOGANS, EVEN KNOW WHAT THEY’RE SAYING AND DON’T EVEN UNDERSTAND THE SITUATION. AND THE HISTORY THERE. >> YEAH. YOU KNOW, POLLS SHOW THAT

THAT OLDER AMERICANS TEND TO BE MORE SUPPORTIVE OF ISRAEL, YOUNGER AMERICANS, LESS. AND I WONDER, DO YOU THINK THAT THIS IS. DO YOU FEEL SAFE ON CAMPUS? YOU KIND OF ANSWER IT, BUT I WANT YOU TO DIG INTO THAT A LITTLE BIT. AND DO YOU THINK THIS IS A

TEMPORARY THING, A FLARE UP BECAUSE OF THE THE ANGUISH THAT PEOPLE JUSTIFIABLY FEEL, THE DEATHS OF INNOCENTS, NO MATTER WHERE? I REALLY HOPE IT’S TEMPORARY. I MEAN WHAT WE’RE SEEING AROUND THE COUNTRY, EVEN AROUND THE WORLD RIGHT NOW, IS REALLY REALLY HORRIFYING. AND GROWING UP. I’M A THIRD GENERATION HOLOCAUST SURVIVOR.

I HEARD STORIES DIRECTLY FROM MY GRANDFATHER OF HIS EXPERIENCE, HOW HE SURVIVED AUSCHWITZ, YOU KNOW, THE HORRORS HE ENDURED DURING HIS TIME IN WHILE IN GERMANY AND IN THE CAMPS. AND, YOU KNOW, IT IT DIDN’T SEEM LIKE A REALITY. IT SEEMED LIKE I WAS, YOU KNOW ,HEARING SOME SORT OF MADE UP

STORIES THAT COULDN’T POSSIBLY BE TRUE. BUT, YOU KNOW, SEEING THEM ACTUALLY EMERGE IN IN REAL LIFE AND SEEING PEOPLE DIRECTLY CALL FOR THE DESTRUCTION OF THE JEWISH PEOPLE IN AMERICA IN, 2023 IS IS REALLY SHOCKING. AND HONESTLY, AT FIRST, I DO THINK THAT CORNELL WAS A LITTLE TO TAKE A DIRECT

STANCE AGAINST ANTI-SEMITISM AS AS AN ADMINISTRATION. IT DEFINITELY IS A DIFFICULT LINE TO TOE BETWEEN FREE SPEECH AND, YOU KNOW, CALLING OUT HATE SPEECH. BUT I THINK THAT, YOU KNOW, SINCE SUNDAY, WHEN THESE DIRECT THREATS TO OUR COMMUNITY EMERGED, THE UNIVERSITY HAS TAKEN A VERY, VERY STRONG STANCE.

AND ALONG WITH GOVERNOR HOCHUL AND THE STATE OF NEW YORK, HAS REALLY ACTED SWIFTLY, ENSURE OUR SAFETY, WHICH HAS BEEN VERY COMFORTING. >> YOU YOU’RE A MEMBER OF THE HARVARD ORGANIZATION THERE ON CAMPUS. YOU KNOW WHAT? I THINK YOU SHOULD BRING SOME SORT OF GUEST SPEAKER TO TEACH THE DEFINITION OF TERRORISM.

WHAT HAMAS REPRESENTS, WHAT THEY DO TO PEOPLE. THERE NEEDS TO BE SOME TYPE OF EDUCATION TO FOR THESE KIDS TO UNDERSTAND WHAT THEY’RE CHANTING, IF THEY INDEED DO NOT UNDERSTAND OR HAVE ANY IDEA WHAT THEY’RE CHANTING, CLEARLY THAT’S THE CASE. AND MAYBE, YOU KNOW, MAYBE THAT’S SOMETHING YOUR ORGANIZATION CAN TAKE ON,

OR AT LEAST THE UNIVERSITY SHOULD TO PROPERLY EDUCATE WHAT HAMAS IS. AMANDA, WE’RE SO GLAD WE GOT TO TALK TO YOU. YOU SO MUCH. THANK YOU. THANK YOU. >> WELL, WE TURN NOW TO A COURT CASE IN NEW YORK. DONALD TRUMP’S ELDEST SON HAS ARRIVED IN COURT.

HE IS NOW ON THE WITNESS STAND TESTIFYING IN HIS FATHER’S CIVIL FRAUD TRIAL. DON JUNIOR IS ALSO NAMED AS A DEFENDANT IN THIS $250 MILLION LAWSUIT THAT’S BEEN BROUGHT BY NEW YORK ATTORNEY GENERAL’S OFFICE. IT ACCUSES HIM AND HIS BROTHER, ERIC, KNOWINGLY PARTICIPATING IN A SCHEME TO INFLATE THEIR FATHER’S NET WORTH SO

THEY COULD OBTAIN BETTER FINANCIAL BENEFITS. OUR INVESTIGATIVE PRODUCER AND REPORTER OLIVIA RUBIN IS JUST OUTSIDE THE COURTROOM. THERE IN NEW YORK WITH MORE. SO, OLIVIA, WHAT’S THE LATEST? WELL, KYRA, DON JR JUST TOOK THE STAND 20 MINUTES AGO AND IT’S REALLY JUST STARTING TO KICK OFF HIS TESTIMONY NOW

THIS LATE IN THE AFTERNOON. AND WHAT THE ATTORNEY GENERAL’S TEAM IS DOING WITH HIM SO FAR HAS PRETTY MUCH BEEN LAYING THE GROUNDWORK. WHO IS DON JUNIOR? WHAT IS HIS EDUCATIONAL BACKGROUND? WHAT IS HIS ROLE? THE COMPANY. HE’S SPEAKING TO HIS FAMILIARITY WITH FINANCIAL TERMS AND HOW CLOSELY HE IS

AWARE OF THAT. AT ONE POINT, HE SORT OF CRACKED A JOKE SAYING HE HADN’T DEALT WITH ONE PARTICULAR FINANCIAL PRINCIPLE AT ISSUE HERE SINCE HE AN ESSENTIALLY ACCOUNTING 101 BACK AT BUSINESS SCHOOL. SO THAT’S WHAT’S SORT OF BEEN GOING ON SO FAR. AND THEY ALSO, KYRA, HAVE SORT

OF BEEN ASKING ABOUT THE STRUCTURE IN THE TRUMP ORGANIZATION. WHO DID HE REPORT TO? WHAT DID HE DO? HE AT ONE POINT SAYING HE REPORTED DIRECTLY TO HIS FATHER, DONALD TRUMP, ALONG WITH SOME OTHERS. AND REALLY, EVEN THOUGH HE’S ONLY BEEN ON THE STAND FOR ABOUT 20 MINUTES NOW, IT’S A

REALLY STRIKING THING TO BE IN THAT COURTROOM WITH THE SON OF DONALD TRUMP ON THE STAND AFTER. THIS IS SOMEONE THAT WE HAVE SEEN ON THE CAMPAIGN TRAIL PREVIOUSLY WITH HIS FATHER, SOMEONE RIGHT BY HIS FATHER’S SIDE. AND NOW WE ARE SEEING HIM IN A COURTROOM ON WITNESS STAND

ALONGSIDE HIS FATHER IN A CRIMINAL CASE. SO REALLY STRIKING SEEING IN THERE JUST AS TESTIMONY GETS UNDER WAY. AND OLIVIA EARLIER IN COURT TODAY BEFORE, DON JUNIOR TOOK THE WITNESS STAND. I GUESS THERE WAS SOME IMPORTANT DEVELOPMENTS IN THE. >> TELL US ABOUT THEM. THERE WERE.

SO THE STATE HAD ON WHAT ITS EXPERT WITNESS WHO SORT OF THE FIRST TIME IN THIS TRIAL TESTIFIED ABOUT ACTUAL HUNDREDS OF MILLIONS OF DOLLARS THAT BANKS LOST IN INTEREST RATES THAT THEY GRANTED TO THE TRUMP ORGANIZATION, WHICH IS SORT OF GOES THE FACE OF SOMETHING THAT DONALD TRUMP HAS BEEN SAYING PUBLICLY,

WHICH IS THAT THERE WAS NO ONE HARMED IN THIS CASE. ALL OF THE BANKS WERE PAID. THEY GOT WHAT THEY NEEDED. BUT FOR THE FIRST TIME, WE’RE SORT OF HEARING THAT THERE A FINANCIAL LOSS FOR SOME OF THE BANKS WHEN THEY WERE LENDING TO DONALD TRUMP. AND IT WAS SIGNIFICANT.

AND EVEN THE DEFENSE ATTORNEYS SAID THAT THEY WANTED TO TAKE THEIR TIME ON CROSS WITH THIS WITNESS BECAUSE WAS THE FIRST TIME A WITNESS HAD SPOKEN TO WHAT THEY SAID WERE ILL GOTTEN GAINS IN THE TRIAL. AND THEY WANTED TO BE ABLE TO CHALLENGE THAT. AND, OF COURSE, IT PROMPTED

THIS SORT OF VERY INTERESTING REMARK FROM THE JUDGE DRAWING BACK TO THE FACT THAT HE ALREADY RULED IT, TERRY, WHICH IS IMPORTANT TO REMEMBER THAT THERE WAS FRAUD COMMITTED IN THIS CASE. AND HE SAID, I’VE ALREADY FOUND THAT THERE WERE ILL GOTTEN GAINS HERE. TERRY. >> WELL, LET’S TALK

ABOUT WHAT’S NEXT IN THE CASE. IVANKA, ERIC ALSO SET TO TESTIFY RIGHT? THEY ARE. SO DON JUNIOR IS SORT OF KICKING OFF THE WHO’S OF THE TRUMP FAMILY MEMBERS THAT ARE SCHEDULED TO TESTIFY HERE. IT DOES SEEM LIKE DON WILL BE BACK TO TESTIFY AGAIN TOMORROW. HIS TESTIMONY DIDN’T START TILL

SO LATE TODAY. THAT WILL LEAD INTO HIS BROTHER, ERIC’S TESTIMONY, WHO ALSO WORKED AT THE TRUMP ORGANIZATION. AND THAT ON MONDAY IS GOING TO LEAD INTO DONALD TRUMP HIMSELF TESTIFYING. AND THEN YET AGAIN, WE’RE GOING TO GO TO ANOTHER TRUMP MEMBER OF VODKA IS SCHEDULED TO TESTIFY ON WEDNESDAY.

AND HER TESTIMONY IS A LITTLE BIT INTERESTING. SHE HAS BEEN FIGHTING THE SUBPOENA THAT IS BRINGING HER DOWN HERE TO TESTIFY ON WEDNESDAY. AND THE JUDGE IN THIS CASE DENIED HER EFFORT TO QUASH THAT SUBPOENA. AND JUST NOW, TODAY, SHE APPEALED THAT RULING. SO TAKING IT ONE STEP FURTHER

TO SEE IF SHE CAN BLOCK THE EFFORT TO BRING HER DOWN HERE TO TESTIFY, TO TESTIFY, BUT AS OF NOW, SET FOR WEDNESDAY, GUYS. ALL RIGHT. OLIVIA RUBIN IN NEW YORK FOR US, THANK YOU SO MUCH. AND SORT OF INTERESTING, YOU SEEN ANY OF THE KIDS IN ANY

KIND OF PHOTO OPS WITH THEIR DAD LATELY? THAT’S RIGHT. COMES QUITE BY HIMSELF. YEAH, IT COULD BE INTERESTING IF THEY’RE ALL. THAT’S WHERE THEY ALL COME TOGETHER FOR THE FIRST TIME PUBLICLY IN A WHILE. STAY TUNED. >> HAPPY THANKSGIVING. COMING UP, THE FEDERAL RESERVE MAKES A MAJOR POLICY DECISION.

WE’RE GOING TO DIG INTO THE NUMBERS AND HOW IT COULD AFFECT EVERYTHING FROM YOUR SAVINGS ACCOUNT TO YOUR GROCERY. >> THAT’S UP NEXT. >> WHENEVER NEWS BREAKS THE CRUSHING OF FAMILIES IN POLAND, HERE IN KENTUCKY, NO MATCH FOR THE TORNADO. MONTEREY PARK, CALIFORNIA. ON THE GROUND IN UKRAINE,

STRAIGHT FORWARD WITH SOME FUN IN BETWEEN A REAL LIFE BARBIE DREAM HOUSE. A NAME CHANGE FOR THE WIENERMOBILE. FIRST THING IN THE MORNING, AMERICA. THIS MORNING, AMERICA’S NUMBER

ONE EARLY MORNING NEWS ON ABC NEWS LIVE. WHEN I GOT SENT TO IDAHO TO COVER THE MURDERS OF FOUR COLLEGE STUDENTS, IT WAS A STORY. DIDN’T MAKE ANY SENSE. FOUR STUDENTS STABBED TO DEATH IN THEIR WHILE TWO ROOMMATES WERE HOME. YOU GOT TO THINK TO YOURSELF, OKAY, THE TARGET AND HOW MANY

PEOPLE WERE A MAN GOING THROUGH TO GET TO HIS TARGET. I’M KAYNA WHITWORTH WITH ABC NEWS. THIS IS THE STORY OF SAVAGE MURDERS, A DETERMINED SMALL TOWN POLICE FORCE AND A SCHOLAR OF CRIME. THIS IS THE KING ROAD KILLINGS. THE FULL SERIES IS OUT NOW. >> LISTENED TO EVERY EPISODE

WHEREVER YOU GET YOUR PODCASTS . THANKS FOR STREAMING WITH US. THE FEDERAL RESERVE IS ANNOUNCING THAT IT IS KEEPING RATES UNCHANGED. NOW THAT DECISION HAS BEEN WATCHED ON BOTH WALL STREET AND MAIN STREET AS THE FED CONTINUES TO FIGHT AGAINST. >> WE UNDERSTAND THE HARDSHIP THAT HIGH IS CAUSING, AND WE

REMAIN STRONGLY COMMITTED TO BRINGING INFLATION BACK TO OUR 2% GOAL. FOR MORE ON THE NUMBERS, OUR BUSINESS CORRESPONDENT ALEXIS CHRISTOFORS ,AS OUR PRODUCER SAID, APPROPRIATE WHERE APPROPRIATELY WEARING GREEN. DID YOU PLAN ON THAT AS YOU WERE GOING TO BREAK DOWN THE NUMBERS? US? I DID NOT.

BUT IT GREEN IS THE COLOR OF MONEY AND SO I DRESSED APPROPRIATELY KYRA. ALL RIGHT. BREAK THE NUMBERS. >> AND WHAT DO WE EXPECT TO HEAR FROM POWELL? SO FOR THE SECOND MEETING IN A ROW, THE FED HAS DECLINED TO RAISE INTEREST RATES AGAIN, BUT NOT DECLARING VICTORY OVER INFLATION YET.

REMEMBER, INFLATION WAS AT MORE THAN NINE, UP MORE THAN 9% JUNE OF LAST YEAR. IT’S NOW DOWN TO 3.7%. BUT AS YOU HEARD FROM FED CHAIR POWELL JUST A FEW SECONDS AGO, IT IS NOWHERE NEAR THAT 2% TARGET. THE FED WANTS. POLICYMAKERS DID MAKE SEVERAL TWEAKS TO THEIR NOVEMBER,

INCLUDING ACKNOWLEDGING THE STRONG PACE OF ECONOMIC IN THE THIRD QUARTER. THE FED ALSO NOTING THAT JOB GAINS MODERATED SINCE EARLIER IN THE YEAR, BUT THEY SAID INFLATION REMAINS ELEVATED. SO IN SHORT, THE FED TODAY THE DOOR WIDE OPEN FOR YET ANOTHER INTEREST RATE HIKE, POSSIBLY AT THE DECEMBER MEETING OR INTO 2024.

>> SO, ALEXIS, THERE’S A LOT OF GOOD NEWS IN THERE. AS YOU POINTED OUT LAST YEAR, INFLATION IS AT 9%, WHICH IS THE HIGHEST IT HAD BEEN IN 40 YEARS. IT’S DOWN TO SOME 3% AROUND THERE. AND YET AMERICANS REALLY ANXIOUS ABOUT COST OF LIVING. WHAT’S THE WHAT’S NOT

REGISTERING OR WHAT THE NUMBER MEASURE AND WHAT IS THE PATH FORWARD FOR POWELL WELL, I THINK FOR MANY AMERICANS, THEY’RE SAYING WHAT YOU MEAN INFLATION IS COMING DOWN, YOU KNOW, BECAUSE IT STILL COSTS SO MUCH MORE TO DO JUST ABOUT. AND THAT’S BECAUSE INFLATION HAS BECOME STICKY IN MANY

DIFFERENT PARTS OF OUR ECONOMY. YOU KNOW, FOR ONE THING, DOWN THE GROCERY, I’LL WRITE SOME OF THOSE ARE HIGH AND THEY’RE GOING TO REMAIN HIGH, I THINK, FOR FED CHIEF POWELL AND ALL THE CENTRAL BANKERS ARE GOING TO HAVE TO REALLY IT’S GOING TO BE A BALANCING ACT FOR THEM GOING FORWARD.

THEY HAVE INFLATION THAT’S STARTING TO COME DOWN AT THE SAME. THE ECONOMY IS STILL STRONG AND THE LABOR MARKET IS STRONG. YOU USUALLY DON’T THOSE THINGS HAPPENING AT THE SAME TIME. >> THIS IS A BIT OF A PUZZLE FOR THE FEDERAL AND WHICH IS WHY I THINK THEY’RE THEY’RE

GOING TO KEEP THE DOOR OPEN FOR ANOTHER INTEREST RATE HIKE DOWN THE ROAD. THEY DON’T WANT TO COMMIT THEMSELVES AND WE’RE DONE RAISING RATES BECAUSE THEY CAN’T BE SURE THAT INFLATION IS REALLY UNDER WRAPS RIGHT NOW TERRY. >> ALL RIGHT, ALEXIS CHRISTOFOROUS HOUSE, THANKS VERY MUCH FOR THAT. MY PLEASURE. COMING UP.

SEE YOU LATER, SANTOS. THE HOUSE COULD VOTE AS SOON AS TODAY WHETHER TO EXPEL THE INDICTED LAWMAKER. WE’VE GOT THE DATE STRAIGHT AHEAD TONIGHT, CYCLE OF VIOLENCE AS ISRAEL FACES THE THREAT OF A REGIONAL WAR. PLUS, FORMER PRESIDENT TRUMP’S CHILDREN TAKE THE STAND IN. THE CASE AGAINST HIM.

IS GENERALLY A REFUGEE CAMP. ISRAELI FORCES CONFIRM THEY ARE BEHIND THE STRIKE TARGETING A HAMAS COMMAND CENTER IN THE AREA. WE’VE GOT THE DETAILS. RISING HATE IN AMERICA. A CORNELL STUDENT HAS BEEN ARRESTED AFTER MAKING ANTI-SEMITIC THREATS. WE’RE GOING TO SPEAK WITH ONE OF HIS CLASSMATES. AS EMOTIONS RUN HIGH

ON CAMPUSES ACROSS THE COUNTRY. THE FEDERAL RESERVE LEAVES INTEREST RATES UNCHANGED. HOW THE FED’S DECISION WILL AFFECT EVERYTHING FROM THE NATIONAL DEBT TO YOUR WALLET. >> WE ARE BREAKING DOWN THE NUMBERS, EVERYONE. I’M KYRA PHILLIPS. AND I’M TERRY MORAN. AND OUR TOP STORY THIS HOUR, ISRAEL IS NOW TAKING

RESPONSIBILITY FOR THE LATEST ATTACK AT THE JABALYA REFUGEE CAMP IN GAZA. THIS MARKS THE SECOND AIRSTRIKE THERE IN THE LAST TWO DAYS. NEW PICTURES OUT OF GAZA SHOW JUST DEVASTATING DAMAGE IN THAT DENSELY POPULATED AREA AS THE CONTROLLED HEALTH MINISTRY SAYS DOZENS WERE KILLED IN THIS SECOND ATTACK.

AND OFFICIALS WITH THE ISRAELI DEFENSE FORCES, THEY SAY FIGHTER JETS STRUCK A HAMAS COMMAND CENTER KILLING ,A NUMBER OF HAMAS TERRORISTS IN THE PROCESS. >> SO THIS COMES AS THE PALESTINIAN CHILDREN’S RELIEF FUND CONFIRMS TO ABC NEWS THAT FIVE AMERICAN AID WORKERS ARE NOW SAFE IN EGYPT AFTER AN

EXCRUCIATING WAIT THERE AT THE RAFAH BORDER CROSSING IN GAZA. INES DE LA CUETARA JOINING US NOW FROM JERUSALEM WITH MORE SO SAYS ISRAEL, NOW ACKNOWLEDGING THIS SECOND AIRSTRIKE THERE ON THE REFUGEE . WHAT MORE DO WE KNOW ABOUT THE BLAST? GUYS? YES. SO INTERESTINGLY, THE IDF HASN’T PUBLICLY SPOKEN THIS SECOND BLAST.

IN FACT, THERE WAS AN IDF BRIEFING JUST MOMENTS AGO WITH IDF SPOKESPERSON DANIEL HAGAR. HE MADE NO MENTION OF THE JABALYA REFUGEE CAMP. BUT IN RESPONSE TO A QUESTION FROM WE DID GET A STATEMENT FROM THE IDF CONFIRMING THAT THEY BEHIND THE SECOND STRIKE. SO THEY SAY IN THE STATEMENT

EARLIER TODAY, BASED PRECISE INTELLIGENCE, IDF FIGHTER JETS STRUCK A HAMAS COMMAND AND CONTROL IN JABALYA. WE CAN CONFIRM THAT HAMAS TERRORISTS WERE ELIMINATED IN THE STRIKE. THEY DO NOT REALLY MAKE ANY MENTION OF THE CIVILIAN CASUALTIES HERE. THEY GO ON TO REITERATE THEIR CALLS FOR CIVILIANS TO LEAVE NORTHERN GAZA AND HEAD SOUTH.

AND THAT’S SIMILAR TO WHAT WE HEARD FROM THE YESTERDAY WHEN THEY CONFIRMED THAT THEY WERE BEHIND THAT MASSIVE BLAST YESTERDAY ON THE JABALYA REFUGEE CAMP. THE IDF SAYING THEY WERE GOING AFTER THERE, INCLUDING A TOP HAMAS COMMANDER WHO THEY SAY WAS ONE OF THE MASTERMINDS BEHIND THE OCTOBER 7TH TERROR ATTACK.

AND AGAIN, IN THAT STATEMENT, THEY MADE NO MENTION OF CIVILIAN CASUALTIES. AGAIN REITERATED THEIR CALLS FOR CIVILIANS TO MOVE SOUTH. SO WE KNOW YESTERDAY AT 52 PEOPLE WERE KILLED, ACCORDING TO THE HAMAS RUN HEALTH MINISTRY. WE’RE STILL WAITING FOR EXACT NUMBERS WHEN IT COMES TO THIS STRIKE. BUT THE JABALYA REFUGEE CAMP,

ONE OF THE MOST DENSELY POPULATED AREAS IN GAZA AND THE LARGEST REFUGEE CAMP IN GAZA AND. I WANT TO ASK ABOUT THE RAFAH BORDER CROSSING, THE BORDER BETWEEN GAZA AND EGYPT. PEOPLE FORGET THAT EGYPT IS CONTROLS PART OF THE GAZA BORDER AS WELL, AND HAVE BEEN OBVIOUSLY FOR SECURITY REASONS

AND OTHER REASONS, KEEPING IT SHUT. U.S. STATE DEPARTMENT WARNS THERE ARE AS MANY AS THOUSAND AMERICANS STILL TRYING TO GET OUT OF GAZA, EVEN THOUGH IT SEEMS THE PACE IS PICKING UP. WHAT DO WE KNOW ABOUT A TIMELINE? YEAH, TERRY, SO SOME GREAT NEWS THERE. THE FACT THAT THIS BORDER HAS

REOPENED TO PEOPLE. THIS IS THE FIRST TIME THAT PEOPLE ARE BEING ALLOWED OUT OF GAZA SINCE OCTOBER 7TH. THE HOLD UP WAS THAT ISRAEL, HAMAS AND EGYPT REALLY COULDN’T AGREE HERE ON ANY KIND OF DEAL. SO THEY HAVE FINALLY A DEAL AND WE DID SEE PEOPLE LEAVING. PRIORITY IS BEING GIVEN

THE CRITICALLY WOUNDED AND WE UNDERSTAND AT LEAST 76 CRITICALLY INJURED HAVE BEEN TAKEN OUT OF GAZA AND TRANSFERRED TO MEDICAL FACILITIES IN EGYPT. THERE WERE AMBULANCES WAITING FOR THEM ON THE OTHER SIDE OF THE BORDER EGYPT, ALSO SETTING UP FIELD HOSPITALS THERE ON THE OTHER SIDE OF THE RAFAH CROSSING.

FOREIGN NATIONALS ARE ALSO BEING ALLOWED OUT. SO WE UNDERSTAND AT LEAST 335 FOREIGN NATIONALS HAVE BEEN ALLOWED OUT, INCLUDING FIVE AMERICAN NGO WORKERS. BUT LIKE YOU SAID, WE DON’T REALLY KNOW WHAT’S GOING TO HAPPEN TO THE OTHER AMERICANS THAT ARE CURRENTLY STILL TRAPPED IN GAZA. ACCORDING TO THE STATE DEPARTMENT.

THERE ARE AT LEAST 400 AMERICAN CITIZENS CURRENTLY TRAPPED IN GAZA. AND TOGETHER WITH THEIR FAMILIES, THAT’S ABOUT A THOUSAND PEOPLE THAT THE STATE DEPARTMENT IS TRYING TO GET. SO WE’LL SEE. WE KNOW SOME OF THESE PEOPLE HAVE BEEN TOLD TO MOVE CLOSE TO THE BORDER CROSSING,

TO BE READY TO GO AT A MOMENT’S NOTICE SHOULD THE BORDER CROSSING OPEN UP AGAIN. SO WE’RE KEEPING AN EYE ON THAT. AND THEN, OF COURSE, AID TRUCKS MOVING GAZA AS WELL. MORE AID TRUCKS MOVING IN TODAY, BUT STILL JUST A DROP IN THE OCEAN IN TERMS OF WHAT’S

NEEDED WITH PEOPLE IN GAZA. OF COURSE, RUNNING OUT FOOD, FUEL, WATER AND MEDICAL SUPPLIES AS WELL. SO SECRETARY OF STATE ANTONY BLINKEN SET TO VISIT ISRAEL ONCE AGAIN. WHAT’S ON HIS AGENDA THIS TIME AROUND? >> THAT’S RIGHT, YES. WE UNDERSTAND THAT THE SECRETARY OF STATE WILL RETURN

TO ISRAEL ON FRIDAY. THIS WILL BE YET ANOTHER TRIP TO ISRAEL. HE’S MADE A NUMBER HERE IN RECENT DAYS. HE FIRST CAME TO ISRAEL SHORTLY AFTER THE WAR, BROKE OUT, THEN WENT TO VISIT OTHER STATES IN THE REGION, HEADED BACK TO ISRAEL. SO THIS WILL BE REALLY HIS HIS

THIRD VISIT TO ISRAEL SINCE THE WAR BROKE OUT. HE’S GOING TO BE MEETING WITH ISRAELI LEADERS TO DISCUSS THE WAR. WE KNOW THIS COMES AS THE U.S. HAS BEEN PUTTING PRESSURE ON ISRAEL TO ALLOW FOR MORE HUMANITARIAN AID TO GET INTO GAZA. THE U.S. ALSO TRYING TO FIND

A WAY OUT FOR FOREIGN NATIONALS IN GAZA, BUT ALSO FOR HOSTAGES. WE KNOW AMERICANS ARE AMONG THE HOSTAGES. THEY’RE BEING DETAINED BY HAMAS. SO THAT OF THAT TAKES A LOT OF DIPLOMACY AND NEGOTIATING WITH NEIGHBORING COUNTRIES. WE UNDERSTAND, ACCORDING TO THE STATE DEPARTMENT, THAT SECRETARY BLINKEN WILL ALSO HEADING TO OTHER COUNTRIES.

WE’RE NOT QUITE SURE WHICH COUNTRIES HE’LL GO TO. WE LAST TIME AROUND, HE WENT TO EGYPT, SAUDI ARABIA, JORDAN . SO WE’LL SEE WHAT HAPPENS THERE. AND I DO WANT TO FLAG ALSO COMMENTS THAT BLINKEN MADE YESTERDAY DURING A SENATE HEARING WHEN HE TALKED ABOUT HOW A REVITALIZED PALESTINIAN AUTHORITY COULD

MAYBE RUN GAZA AFTER THE WAR. AND SO I’M CURIOUS TO SEE IF BLINKEN, DURING HIS VISIT TO ISRAEL, DECIDES TO MAYBE MEET WITH PALESTINIAN AUTHORITY LEADERS. WE’LL HAVE TO SEE. WE KNOW PRESIDENT BIDEN WAS SET TO MEET WITH MAHMOUD ABBAS AND THEN THAT ENDED UP BEING CANCELED.

SO KEEPING A CLOSE EYE ON THAT AS WELL. ALL RIGHT, INES DE LA CUETARA, THANK YOU SO MUCH. >> THANK YOU. AND AS WELL, A CORNELL UNIVERSITY STUDENT IN CUSTODY CHARGED BY THE DEPARTMENT OF JUSTICE WITH MAKING VIOLENT ANTI-SEMITIC THREATS. INVESTIGATORS SAY PATRICK DAI WAS ARRESTED YESTERDAY, ACCUSED OF ONLINE THREATS

AGAINST JEWISH STUDENTS, INCLUDING AND MURDER. THE DOJ ALSO SAYS DI THREATENED TO BRING AN ASSAULT RIFLE TO CAMPUS TO SHOOT JEWS. >> THIS COMES AMID A SADDENING SURGE IN ANTI-SEMITIC THREATS AND HATE CRIMES ACROSS THE U.S.. AND TODAY, ATTORNEY GENERAL ERIC MERRICK GARLAND EVEN DOUBLED DOWN ON HIS PROMISE

THAT THE DOJ COMBAT THESE ACTS OF HATE. TELLING JEWISH AMERICANS YOU ARE ALONE. AMANDA SILBERSTEIN IS SOPHOMORE AT CORNELL AND IS ON THE BOARD OF THE SCHOOL’S CHABAD CENTER FOR JEWISH LIFE. AMANDA, GLAD YOU COULD BE WITH US. YES, YOU FOR JOINING US. AMANDA, THIS IS SUCH A DISTURBING STORY.

HOW ARE YOU AND YOUR CLASSMATES DOING IN LIGHT OF THIS AND WHAT’S MOOD THERE ON CORNELL’S CAMPUS RIGHT NOW? >> I THAT EVERYONE IS JUST A LITTLE OVERWHELMED WITH SHOCK ACTUALLY FINDING OUT THAT IT WAS A CORNELL STUDENT. YOU KNOW, DESPITE ANY POSSIBILITY THAT HIS REMARKS ONLINE, HOWEVER VIOLENT

THEY WERE TOWARDS ME AND MY COMMUNITY, THAT THEY COULD HAVE STEMMED FROM A PLACE OF ISOLATION AND DEPRESSION STILL BEING ABLE TO FINALLY UNDERSTAND THAT IT WAS, IN FACT A CORNELL STUDENT, SOMEONE WE ATTEND CLASS WITH EVERY DAY WHO POSED THESE THREATS TO OUR IS REALLY SHOCKING AND WE’RE

ALL JUST, YOU KNOW, TRYING TO FIGURE OUT HOW TO COPE WITH IT AND TO UNDERSTAND WHAT REALLY HAPPENED. >> SO YOUR UNIVERSITY’S PRESIDENT ALERTED THE COMMUNITY ABOUT THE ANTI-SEMITIC THREATS MADE ONLINE. IN YOUR EXPERIENCE, A JEWISH STUDENT, I MEAN, HOW BAD HAS THIS GOTTEN? HOW MUCH WORSE HAS THIS GOTTEN

SINCE THE HAMAS ATTACK ON OCTOBER 7TH? >> SO PRIOR TO OCTOBER 7TH, I PERSONALLY HAD NEVER EXPERIENCED ON CAMPUS. WE REALLY DO HAVE AN AMAZING JEWISH COMMUNITY HERE AT CORNELL THAT HAS GROWN SUBSTANTIALLY IN RECENT YEARS. HOWEVER, SINCE OCTOBER 7TH, THERE HAVE MANY INSTANCES WHERE THERE WERE OUTWARD CASES OF ANTI-SEMITISM, INCLUDING

OUR POSTERS OF HOSTAGES, LITTLE KIDS BEING TORN DOWN OR VANDALIZED WITH THE WORDS HAMAS WRITTEN OVER THEM. THERE HAVE BEEN CASES OF GRAFFITI ALL OVER CAMPUS WITH THE WORDS ISRAEL ZIONISM IS AND FREE PALESTINE ALL OVER CAMPUS. AND, YOU KNOW, THE UNIVERSITY DID ACT TO REMOVE THEM. BUT IT TOOK TIME.

AND HAVING WALK TO CLASS, SEEING THAT WAS REALLY STRIKING. ADDITIONALLY THERE WERE CHANTS OF FROM THE RIVER, COWS FROM THE RIVER TO THE SEA PALESTINE WILL BE FREE AT VARIOUS RALLIES AROUND CAMPUS, WHICH ESSENTIALLY CALLS FOR THE DESTRUCTION OF ISRAEL, WHICH IS SITUATED IN BETWEEN THE JORDAN RIVER AND THE MEDITERRANEAN SEA.

SO ARE YOU TAKING MORE PRECAUTIONS TO PROTECT YOURSELF? >> YEAH, EVEN EVEN MY FAMILY MEMBERS ARE IN ISRAEL. KEEP CHECKING IN WITH ME. THEY’RE MORE WORRIED ABOUT MY SAFETY HERE ON AN AMERICAN COLLEGE CAMPUS THAN, YOU KNOW, THEY’RE WORRIED ABOUT THEIR SAFETY BEING IN ISRAEL RIGHT NOW AND TELLING ME

ENGAGE WITH THE PROTESTERS, YOU KNOW, STAY SAFE. I ACTUALLY PERSONALLY HAVE A JEWISH FLAG, AN ISRAELI FLAG STICKER ON MY WATER BOTTLE. AND I THOUGHT TO MYSELF, YOU KNOW, TRYING TO HIDE IT SOMETIMES WHEN WALKING BY RALLIES OUT OF FEAR FOR MY OWN SAFETY. >> I MEAN, THAT’S. YEAH.

BOTH OF US ARE SITTING HERE. I MEAN, ESPECIALLY AS PARENTS, YOU KNOW, I MEAN, AND TO THINK I MEAN, WE DIDN’T EVEN I DON’T KNOW IT’S UNFATHOMABLE THAT YOU’RE YOU FEEL THAT THEY FEEL YOU’RE YOU’RE NOT SAFE ON A U.S. COLLEGE CAMPUS WORSE OFTEN THAN THEY ARE IN ISRAEL.

I MEAN, THAT JUST HAMMERS AT HOME. >> AND IF I MAY DRILL DOWN ON THAT, IS IT SOMETHING THAT STUDENTS BROUGHT TO CORNELL OR SOMETHING ABOUT THE WHAT WHAT PEOPLE OBSERVE THE THE TEACHING IN MANY CAMPUSES ABOUT ABOUT RACE, ABOUT ISRAEL, ABOUT OTHER THINGS. IS THIS WHAT IS GOING ON.

>> SO I PERSONALLY HAVEN’T TAKEN ANY OF THOSE COURSES RELATED TO THE TOPIC. SO I CAN’T SPEAK SPECIFICALLY TO WHAT TEACHERS WHO DEAL WITH THIS EVERY DAY ARE SAYING ABOUT THE ISSUE IN THEIR CLASSES. BUT, YOU KNOW, WE HAVE HEARD HISTORY PROFESSORS ON CAMPUS, YOU KNOW, COMMENDING HAMAS FOR

CARRYING OUT THESE ATTACKS FOR YOU AND BURNING FAMILIES, WHICH IS STRIKING AND, YOU KNOW, CAN ONLY MAKE ME WONDER, YOU KNOW, WHAT THOSE STUDENTS ARE THINKING WHEN THAT IS THEIR PROFESSOR WHO, YOU KNOW, IS IN IN A SENSE INDOCTRINATING THEM TO BELIEVE THAT ISRAEL IS SOME SORT

OF MONSTER AND THAT, YOU KNOW, ACCORDING TO THAT ALL JEWS ARE MONSTERS WHO SHOULD BE ELIMINATED. >> ARE THEY REALLY THAT IGNORANT? DO YOU REALLY THINK THEY ARE THAT IGNORANT? WHEN I HEAR CHANTING FROM THE RIVER TO THE SEA ALL OVER CAMPUS, YOU KNOW, MY FIRST THOUGHT ISN’T LIKE, OH, I HATE YOU.

YOU REALLY WANT TO SEE ME DEAD? YOU KNOW. MY FIRST THOUGHT IS THAT THE MAJORITY OF THE PEOPLE HAVE NO IDEA WHAT THEY’RE SAYING. THEY GENUINELY DO NOT UNDERSTAND THE ISSUES AT HAND. MAYBE SEE PICTURES OF, YOU KNOW, INJURED PALESTINIANS RIGHT NOW IN. GAZA, WHICH, YOU KNOW, MAKES

MY HEART HURT AS WELL. AND IT UNDERSTANDABLE THAT SOMEONE COULD LOOK AT THOSE IMAGES AND FEEL PAIN FOR THE PEOPLE AND ASSUME THAT ISRAEL IS THE ULTIMATE OPPRESSOR. BUT A LOT OF THE PEOPLE WHO ATTEND THESE RALLIES WHO CHANT THESE HARMFUL SLOGANS DON’T EVEN KNOW WHAT THEY’RE SAYING AND DON’T EVEN UNDERSTAND

THE SITUATION AND THE HISTORY THERE. >> YEAH, YOU KNOW, POLLS THAT THAT OLDER AMERICANS TEND TO BE MORE SUPPORTIVE OF ISRAEL, YOUNGER, LESS SO. AND I WONDER, DO YOU THINK THAT THIS IS. DO YOU FEEL SAFE ON CAMPUS? YOU KIND OF ANSWER, BUT I WANT YOU TO DIG INTO THAT A LITTLE BIT.

AND DO YOU THINK THIS IS A TEMPORARY THING, A FLARE UP BECAUSE OF THE THE ANGUISH THAT PEOPLE JUSTIFIABLY FEEL ABOUT THE DEATHS OF INNOCENTS, NO MATTER WHERE? >> I REALLY HOPE IT’S TEMPORARY . I MEAN, WHAT WE’RE SEEING AROUND THE COUNTRY, EVEN AROUND THE WORLD, RIGHT NOW, IS REALLY, REALLY HORRIFYING.

AND GROWING UP I’M A THIRD GENERATION HOLOCAUST SURVIVOR. I HEARD STORIES DIRECTLY FROM MY GRANDFATHER OF HIS EXPERIENCE HOW HE SURVIVED AUSCHWITZ AND, YOU KNOW, THE HORRORS HE ENDURED HIS TIME IN WALL IN GERMANY AND IN THE CAMPS. AND, YOU KNOW, IT IT DIDN’T SEEM LIKE A REALITY.

IT SEEMED LIKE I WAS, YOU KNOW, HEARING SOME SORT OF MADE UP STORIES THAT COULDN’T POSSIBLY BE TRUE. BUT, YOU KNOW, SEEING THEM ACTUALLY EMERGE IN IN REAL LIFE AND SEEING PEOPLE DIRECTLY CALL FOR THE DESTRUCTION OF THE JEWISH PEOPLE IN AMERICA IN 2023 IS IS REALLY SHOCKING.

AND HONESTLY, AT FIRST, I DO THINK THAT CORNELL WAS A LITTLE SLOW TO TAKE A DIRECT STANCE AGAINST ANTISEMITISM BECAUSE AS AS AN ADMINISTRATION, IT DEFINITELY IS A DIFFICULT TO TELL BETWEEN FREE SPEECH AND, YOU KNOW, CALLING OUT HATE. BUT I THINK THAT SINCE SUNDAY WHEN THESE DIRECT THREATS

TO OUR COMMUNITY EMERGED, THE UNIVERSITY HAS TAKEN A VERY, VERY STRONG STANCE. AND ALONG WITH GOVERNOR HOCHUL AND THE STATE OF NEW YORK HAS REALLY SWIFTLY TO ENSURE OUR SAFETY, WHICH HAS BEEN VERY COMFORTING. >> YOU KNOW, YOU’RE A MEMBER OF THE HARVARD ORGANIZATION ON CAMPUS. YOU KNOW WHAT?

I THINK YOU SHOULD BRING SOME SORT OF GUEST SPEAKER TO TEACH STUDENTS THE DEFINITION OF TERRORISM. WHAT HAMAS, WHAT THEY DO TO PEOPLE. THERE NEEDS TO BE SOME TYPE EDUCATION FOR THESE KIDS TO UNDERSTD WHAT. THEY’RE CHANTING IF THEY INDEED DO NOT UNDERSTAND OR HAVE ANY IDEA WHAT THEY’RE CHANTING.

CLEARLY THAT’S THE CASE. AND MAYBE, YOU KNOW, MAYBE THAT’S SOMETHING YOUR ORGANIZATION CAN TAKE ON, OR AT LEAST THE UNIVERSITY SHOULD TO PROPERLY EDUCATE WHAT HAMAS IS. >> AMANDA, WE’RE SO GLAD WE GOT TO TALK TO YOU. THANK YOU SO MUCH. THANK YOU. THANK. >> WELL, WE TURN NOW TO A COURT

CASE IN NEW YORK CITY. DONALD TRUMP’S ELDEST SON HAS ARRIVED IN COURT AND HE IS NOW ON THE WITNESS STAND TESTIFYING IN HIS FATHER’S CIVIL FRAUD TRIAL. DON JUNIOR’S, ALSO NAMED AS A DEFENDANT IN THIS $250 MILLION LAWSUIT THAT’S BEEN BROUGHT BY THE NEW YORK GENERAL’S OFFICE, ACCUSES HIM AND HIS

BROTHER, ERIC, OF KNOWINGLY PARTICIPATING IN A SCHEME TO INFLATE THEIR FATHER’S NET WORTH. SO THEY COULD OBTAIN BETTER FINANCIAL BENEFITS. OUR INVESTIGATIVE PRODUCER AND REPORTER OLIVIA RUBIN IS JUST OUTSIDE THE COURTROOM THERE IN NEW YORK WITH MORE. SO, OLIVIA WHAT’S THE LATEST? WELL, KYRA, DON JR JUST TOOK

THE STAND ABOUT 20 MINUTES AGO AND IT’S REALLY JUST STARTING TO KICK OFF HIS TESTIMONY NOW THIS LATE IN THE AFTERNOON. AND WHAT THE ATTORNEY GENERAL’S TEAM DOING WITH HIM SO FAR HAS PRETTY MUCH BEEN LAYING THE GROUNDWORK. WHO IS DON JUNIOR? WHAT IS HIS EDUCATIONAL BACKGROUND?

WHAT IS HIS ROLE AT THE COMPANY ? HE’S SPEAKING TO HIS FAMILIARITY WITH, FINANCIAL TERMS AND HOW CLOSELY HE IS AWARE WITH THAT. AT ONE POINT, HE SORT OF CRACKED A JOKE SAYING HE HADN’T DEALT WITH ONE PARTICULAR FINANCIAL PRINCIPLE AT ISSUE HERE SINCE HE WAS AN ESSENTIALLY ACCOUNTING 101

BACK AT BUSINESS SCHOOL. SO THAT’S WHAT SORT OF BEEN GOING ON SO FAR. AND THEY ALSO, KYRA, HAVE SORT OF BEEN ASKING HIM ABOUT THE STRUCTURE IN THE TRUMP ORGANIZATION. WHO DID HE REPORT TO? WHAT DID HE DO? HE AT ONE POINT SAY HE REPORTED DIRECTLY TO HIS FATHER, DONALD

TRUMP, ALONG WITH SOME OTHERS. AND REALLY, EVEN THOUGH HE’S ONLY BEEN THE STAND FOR ABOUT 20 MINUTES NOW, IT’S A REALLY STRIKING SCENE TO. BE IN THAT COURTROOM WITH THE SON OF DONALD TRUMP ON THE STAND AFTER. THIS IS SOMEONE THAT WE HAVE SEEN ON THE CAMPAIGN TRAIL

PREVIOUSLY WITH HIS FATHER, SOMEONE ONE RIGHT BY HIS FATHER’S SIDE. AND NOW WE ARE SEEING HIM IN A COURTROOM, THE WITNESS STAND ALONGSIDE HIS FATHER IN A CRIMINAL CASE. SO REALLY STRIKING SEEING IN THERE JUST AS TESTIMONY GETS UNDER WAY. AND OLIVIA, EARLIER IN COURT TODAY, BEFORE DON JR TOOK

THE WITNESS STAND, I GUESS THERE WAS SOME IMPORTANT DEVELOPMENTS IN THE CASE. TELL US ABOUT THEM. >> THERE WERE. SO THE STATE HAD ON WHAT ITS EXPERT WITNESS WHO SORT OF FOR THE FIRST TIME IN THIS TRIAL TESTIFIED ABOUT ACTUAL HUNDREDS OF MILLIONS OF DOLLARS THAT BANKS LOST IN INTEREST

RATES THAT THEY GRANTED TO THE TRUMP ORGANIZATION, WHICH IS SORT OF GOES IN THE FACE OF SOMETHING THAT DONALD TRUMP HAS BEEN SAYING PUBLICLY, WHICH IS THAT THERE WAS NO ONE HARMED IN THIS CASE. ALL OF THE BANKS WERE PAID BACK. THEY GOT WHAT THEY NEEDED. BUT FOR THE FIRST TIME, WE’RE

SORT OF HEARING THAT THERE WAS A FINANCIAL LOSS FOR SOME OF THE BANKS WHEN THEY WERE LENDING TO DONALD TRUMP, AND IT WAS SIGNIFICANT. AND EVEN THE DEFENSE ATTORNEYS SAID THAT THEY WANTED TO TAKE THEIR TIME ON CROSS WITH THIS WITNESS BECAUSE WAS THE FIRST TIME A WITNESS HAD SPOKEN

TO WHAT THEY SAID WERE ILL GAINS IN THE TRIAL. AND THEY WANTED TO BE ABLE TO CHALLENGE THAT. AND, OF COURSE, IT PROMPTED THIS SORT OF VERY INTERESTING REMARK FROM THE JUDGE DRAWING TO THE FACT THAT HE ALREADY RULED IT, TERRY, WHICH IS IMPORTANT TO REMEMBER THAT THERE WAS FRAUD COMMITTED

IN THIS CASE. AND HE SAID, I’VE ALREADY FOUND THERE WERE ILL GOTTEN GAINS HERE. TERRY. >> WELL, LET’S TALK ABOUT WHAT’S NEXT IN THE CASE. IVANKA, ERIC ALSO SET TO TESTIFY RIGHT? THEY ARE. SO DON JUNIOR IS SORT OF KICKING OFF THE WHO’S WHO OF THE TRUMP FAMILY MEMBERS

THAT ARE SCHEDULED TO TESTIFY HERE. IT DOES SEEM LIKE DON WILL BE BACK TO TESTIFY AGAIN TOMORROW. HIS TESTIMONY DIDN’T START UNTIL SO LATE TODAY. THAT WILL LEAD INTO HIS ERIC’S TESTIMONY, WHO ALSO WORKS AT THE TRUMP ORGANIZATION. AND THAT ON MONDAY IS GOING TO LEAD INTO DONALD

TRUMP HIMSELF TESTIFYING. AND THEN YET AGAIN, WE’RE GOING TO GO TO ANOTHER TRUMP FAMILY OF VODKA IS SCHEDULED TO TESTIFY ON WEDNESDAY. AND HER TESTIMONY IS A LITTLE BIT INTERESTING. SHE HAS BEEN FIGHTING THE SUBPOENA THAT IS BRINGING DOWN HERE TO TESTIFY WEDNESDAY. AND THE JUDGE IN THIS CASE

DENIED HER TO QUASH THAT SUBPOENA. AND JUST NOW, TODAY, SHE HAS APPEALED THAT RULING. SO TAKING IT ONE STEP FURTHER TO SEE IF SHE CAN BLOCK THE EFFORT TO BRING HER DOWN HERE TO TESTIFY, TO TESTIFY. BUT AS OF NOW, SET FOR WEDNESDAY, GUYS ALL RIGHT. OLIVIA RUBIN IN NEW YORK FOR

US, THANK YOU SO MUCH. AND SORT OF INTERESTING, YOU HAVEN’T SEEN ANY OF THE KIDS IN ANY KIND OF PHOTO OPS WITH THEIR DAD LATELY. THAT’S RIGHT. COMES TO COURT BY HIMSELF. YEAH. IT’LL BE INTERESTING IF THEY’RE ALL. THAT’S WHERE THEY ALL COME TOGETHER FOR THE FIRST TIME PUBLICLY IN A WHILE.

ABC NEWS LIVE AMERICA’S NUMBER ONE STREAMING NEWS. THANKS FOR STREAMING WITH US. THE FEDERAL RESERVE IS ANNOUNCING THAT IT IS KEEPING INTEREST RATES UNCHANGED. NOW THAT DECISION HAS BEEN WATCHED CLOSELY ON BOTH WALL STREET AND MAIN STREET AS THE FED CONTINUES TO FIGHT AGAINST INFLATION. >> WE UNDERSTAND THE HARDSHIP

THAT HIGH INFLATION IS CAUSING AND WE REMAIN STRONGLY COMMITTED TO BRINGING BACK DOWN TO OUR 2% GOAL. FOR MORE ON THE NUMBERS, OUR BUSINESS CORRESPONDENT ALEXIS CHRISTOFOR, AS OUR PRODUCER SAID, APPROPRIATE WHERE APPROPRIATELY WEARING GREEN. DID YOU PLAN ON THAT AS YOU WERE GOING TO BREAK DOWN THE NUMBERS FOR US, ALEXIS?

I DID NOT, BUT GREEN IS THE COLOR OF MONEY, SO I AM DRESSED APPROPRIATELY, KYRA. ALL RIGHT. >> BREAK DOWN THE NUMBERS. AND WHAT DO WE EXPECT TO HEAR FROM POWELL? SO FOR SECOND MEETING IN A ROW, THE FED HAS DECLINED TO RAISE RATES AGAIN, BUT NOT DECLARING VICTORY OVER INFLATION JUST

YET. REMEMBER, INFLATION WAS AT MORE THAN NINE, UP MORE THAN 9% JUNE OF LAST YEAR. IT’S NOW DOWN TO 3.7%. BUT AS YOU HEARD FROM FED CHAIR POWELL JUST A FEW SECONDS AGO, IT IS NOWHERE NEAR THAT 2% TARGET. THE FED WANTS. NOW, POLICYMAKERS DID MAKE SEVERAL TWEAKS TO THEIR

NOVEMBER, INCLUDING ACKNOWLEDGING THE STRONG PACE OF ECONOMIC EXPANSION IN THE THIRD QUARTER. THE FED ALSO NOTING THAT JOB GAINS MODERATED SINCE EARLIER IN THE YEAR, BUT THEY SAID INFLATION REMAINS ELEVATED. SO IN SHORT, THE FED TODAY THE DOOR WIDE OPEN FOR YET ANOTHER INTEREST HIKE, POSSIBLY AT THE DECEMBER MEETING OR INTO 2024.

>> SO, ALEXIS, THERE’S A LOT OF GOOD NEWS IN THERE. AS YOU POINTED OUT LAST YEAR, INFLATION IS AT 9%, WHICH IS THE HIGHEST IT HAS BEEN IN 40 YEARS. IT’S DOWN TO SOME 3% AROUND THERE. AND YET AMERICANS STILL REALLY ANXIOUS ABOUT COST LIVING. WHAT’S THE WHAT’S NOT

REGISTERING OR WHAT THE NUMBER MEASURE. RIGHT. AND WHAT IS THE PATH FORWARD FOR POWELL WELL, I THINK FOR MANY AMERICANS, THEY’RE SAYING WHAT YOU MEAN INFLATION IS COMING DOWN, YOU KNOW, BECAUSE IT STILL COSTS SO MUCH MORE TO DO JUST ABOUT. AND THAT’S BECAUSE INFLATION HAS BECOME STICKY IN MANY

DIFFERENT PARTS OF OUR ECONOMY. YOU KNOW, FOR ONE THING, DOWN THE GROCERY, I’LL WRITE SOME OF THOSE ARE HIGH AND THEY’RE GOING TO REMAIN HIGH, I THINK, FOR FED CHIEF POWELL AND ALL CENTRAL BANKERS ARE GOING TO HAVE TO REALLY IT’S GOING TO BE A BALANCING ACT FOR THEM GOING.

THEY HAVE INFLATION THAT’S STARTING TO COME DOWN. AT THE SAME TIME, THE ECONOMY IS STILL STRONG AND THE LABOR MARKET IS STRONG. YOU USUALLY DON’T SEE THOSE THINGS HAPPENING AT THE SAME TIME. THIS IS A BIT OF A PUZZLE FOR THE FEDERAL AND WHICH IS WHY I THINK THEY’RE THEY’RE GOING

TO KEEP THE DOOR OPEN FOR ANOTHER INTEREST RATE HIKE DOWN THE ROAD. THEY DON’T WANT TO COMMIT THEMSELVES AND WE’RE DONE RAISING RATES BECAUSE THEY CAN’T BE SURE THAT INFLATION IS REALLY UNDER WRAPS RIGHT NOW TERRY. >> ALL RIGHT, ALEXIS CHRISTOFF FOR US, THANKS VERY MUCH FOR THAT. MY PLEASURE. COMING UP.

NEW PICTURES OF GAZA SHOW DEVASTATING DAMAGE IN THIS DENSELY POPULATED AREA AS THE HAMAS CONTROLLED HEALTH MINISTRY THERE SAYS.

>> DR. JEN ASHTON AND WHAT YOU NEED TO KNOW. HEY, GOOD AFTERNOON, EVERYBODY . SO WHAT DON’T YOU NEED TO KNOW ON THIS WEDNESDAY? MEAN, WHAT A WAY TO WAKE UP TO IT AND SAY, GOOD AFTERNOON TO YOU, EVERYONE. GOOD TO SEE YOU GUYS. YOU GUYS AND BOOGIE. HOW DO YOU.

THANK YOU. DID YOU JUST I JUST WANT TO POINT OUT WE DID NOT TALK TO EACH OTHER. WE’RE ALMOST COMPLETELY IN THE GROOVE WITH THE EARTH TONE WARDROBE. LOOK, TODAY YOU’RE PICKING IT UP WITH THE ORANGE. ALWAYS AND SAYING, YEAH, GREAT MINDS THINK ALIKE, BUT A GOOD HALLOWEEN FOR YOU GUYS, RIGHT?

ALL THE CANDY I GOT. SINCE WE GET A CANDY, I GOT TO TELL EVERYBODY, OUR TRAINER GAVE ME AN AVOCADO YESTERDAY. I GAVE IT TO I GAVE IT RIGHT BACK. >> AND THAT’S WHY YOU LOOK LIKE THIS SHREDDED, Y’ALL GOT ABOUT A WEEK. >> COME ON. MY. YEAH. SO WE LOVE CORY.

THAT’S ALSO WHY HE HAS NO BODY FAT. ALL RIGHT, DR. J, LET’S TALK ABOUT SOME HEALTH HEADLINES NEW CANCER SCREENING GUIDELINES. LUNG CANCER SCREENING GUIDELINES ARE OUT FROM THE AMERICAN CANCER CENTER. AND TALK US THROUGH THESE CHANGES. SO BIG PICTURE HERE IS THAT THEY’VE LOOSENED UP OR EXPANDED, BROADENS THEIR SCREENING CRITERIA

TO LOOK FOR LUNG CANCER. POTENTIALLY, THIS COULD INCLUDE MANY MILLIONS OF MORE PEOPLE. THE PUSH IS TO GET PEOPLE SCREENED BECAUSE, AGAIN, EARLY DETECTION WITH LUNG CANCER, LIKE WITH SO MANY CANCERS, SO IMPORTANT IN A GOOD PROGNOSIS. SO LET’S GO THROUGH THEIR NEW RECOMMENDATIONS NEW SCREENING AGE ELIGIBILITY FROM 50 TO

80 YEARS OF AGE. IF YOU’RE IN FAIRLY GOOD HEALTH, THE OLD GUIDELINES HAD THAT FROM 55 TO 74. SO THEY BROUGHT IN TO THAT AGE GROUP. % IF YOU HAVE AT LEAST A 20 PACK YEAR SMOKING HISTORY THAT USED TO BE VERSUS A 30 PACK YOUR SMOKING HISTORY PACK HERE,

I’LL TALK YOU THROUGH IT. IT’S A SIMPLE CALCULATION THAT WE USE ALSO ELIGIBLE IS IF YOU CURRENTLY SMOKE OR YOU’VE QUIT IN THE PAST 15 YEARS. IT USED TO BE THAT IF YOU QUIT TO 15 YEARS AGO AND IT’S MORE THAN 15 YEARS THAT YOU CAN DISCONTINUE SCREENING, THEY’VE DROPPED THAT.

AND WE HAVE TO REMEMBER BIG PICTURE HERE, LUNG CANCER IS THE LEADING CAUSE OF CANCER RELATED DEATHS GLOBALLY AMONG MEN AND WOMEN AND 15 TO 20% OF LUNG CANCER NOT DUE TO SMOKING WHEN YOU TALK ABOUT THAT CALCULATION, PACK YOUR SMOKING HISTORY. IF YOU SMOKED ONE PACK A DAY FOR TEN YEARS.

IF YOU LOVE BEING IN THE KNOW, YOU’RE GOING TO LOVE THIS EXPERIENCE THE ALL-NEW ABC NEWS APP DOWNLOAD IT NOW WE TAKE YOU NOW TO DUTCH CREEK FARMS IN NORTHFIELD, MINNESOTA, WHERE PRESIDENT BIDEN

IS SPEAKING ABOUT THE FIVE AMERICAN AID WORKERS WHO WERE ABLE TO CROSS FROM GAZA INTO EGYPT TODAY. >> LET’S LISTEN IN. THEY DON’T ABOUT IT. ALL RIGHT. I DON’T BLAME HIM OR HER. I DON’T BLAME HER. LOOK, THE LOSS OF EVERY EVERY INNOCENT LIFE IS A TRAGEDY. WE GRIEVE FOR THOSE.

WE CONTINUE TO GRIEVE FOR THE ISRAELI CHILDREN. THE MOTHERS ARE BRUTALLY SLAUGHTERED BY HAMAS TERRORISTS AND ALSO CONTINUE TO HOLD IN OUR HEARTS THE HUNDREDS OF FAMILIES AND LOVED ONES, INCLUDING SMALL CHILDREN AND ELDERLY GRANDPARENTS, INCLUDING AMERICAN CITIZENS BEING HELD HOSTAGE. MY ADMINISTRATION CONTINUES TO WORK AROUND THE CLOCK TO,

REUNITE THOSE FAMILIES. WE’RE NOT GOING TO GIVE UP, PERIOD I’M NOT GOING TO GIVE UP . >> AND I AM OPTIMISTIC. BUT THEN I AM AN OPTIMIST. FOLKS, NOW I WANT TO THANK BRAD FOR INTRODUCTION. BRAD SAID HE WASN’T SURE WHAT A GOOD SPEAKER WAS.

HE CAN SPEAK A WHOLE LOT BETTER THAN I CAN. FAR. AND I’M GLAD TO BE ACCOMPANIED BY. I WANT TO TALK ABOUT MY ADMINISTRATION AND ITS INVESTMENT RURAL AMERICA. >> BUT I ALSO WANT TO THANK GOVERNOR VILSACK, FORMER GOVERNOR VILSACK, THE SECRETARY OF AGRICULTURE, FOR CREATING OPPORTUNITIES FOR FAMILY FARMERS WITH TRIBAL COMMUNITIES

ACROSS THE COUNTRY IS WHAT WE’RE TO DO HERE IN TERMS GOVERNOR, ALSO GOVERNOR, IT’S A GREAT THANK YOU FOR THE GREAT WORK AND THE PARTNERSHIP THAT YOU’RE DOING HERE IN MINNESOTA. >> AND I’M MAYOR PAUL BROWN. >> BUT WHAT WAS WRONG WITH THE MAYOR THERE? >> YOU ARE MAYOR, THANK YOU FOR

BEING HERE AS WELL. I APPRECIATE AND THANK YOU FOR THE PASSPORT AND THE CITY. I DON’T GET MANY PASSPORTS THESE DAYS. OVER THE PAST 40 YEARS OR SO, WE’VE HAD A PRACTICE IN AMERICAN ECONOMIC PRACTICE CALLED TRICKLE DOWN ECONOMICS, AND IT HIT RURAL AMERICA ESPECIALLY HARD

AND HOLLOWED OUT MAIN STREET, TELLING FARMERS THE ONLY PATH TO SUCCESS WAS TO GET BIG OR GET OUT. TAX CUTS FOR BIG CORPORATIONS ENCOURAGE COMPANIES TO GROW BIGGER AND BIGGER, MOVE JOBS AND PRODUCTION OVERSEAS FOR CHEAPER LABOR, AND UNDERCUT LOCAL SMALL BUSINESSES, BIG PRODUCING COMPANIES AND THE RETAIL GROCERY CHAINS. CONSOLIDATE, LEAVING FARMERS

AND RANCHERS WITH FEW CHOICES ABOUT WHERE SELL THEIR PRODUCTS, REDUCING THEIR BARGAINING POWER. CORPORATIONS TO SELL SEED, FERTILIZER AND EVEN FARM EQUIPMENT USE THEIR OUTSIZED MARKET POWER TO CHANGE FARMERS AND CHARGE THEM AND RANCHERS UNFAIR PRICES, YOU KNOW, IN PART OF THESE CONDITIONS OVER THE PAST FOUR DECADES, WE

LOST 400,000 FARMS IN AMERICA, 400,000 OVER 141 MILLION ACRES OF FARMLAND. AND THAT’S AN AREA EQUAL TO THE SIZE OF MINNESOTA, NORTH AND SOUTH DAKOTA. COMBINE THREE FACING HIGHER COST AND EARNING LESS FAMILY FARMS ARE STRUGGLE TO MAKE TO MAKE IT WORK, MAKE THE MATH WORK. >> ALL RIGHT.

AS THE PRESIDENT THEN DESCRIBES HIS APPROACH TO FAMILY FARMS, WE WANT TO FOCUS ON THIS ISSUE OF THE AMERICANS WHO ESCAPED ESSENTIALLY FROM GAZA THROUGH THE RAFAH CROSSING. IT HAS BEEN VERY DIFFICULT FOR AMERICANS IN RAFAH. THESE WERE FIVE AMERICAN AID WORKERS TO GET OUT OF THAT WAR ZONE.

EGYPT HAS CLOSED THE BORDER. THAT IS A BORDER THAT EGYPT CONTROLS ISRAEL, DOESN’T CONTROL ALL THE BORDERS OF GAZA. AND THERE WERE FIVE AMERICAN AID WORKERS WHO MADE IT OUT. THE PRESIDENT, THE TOP OF THE REMARKS BEFORE WE GOT IN THERE SAID THAT THIS IS RESULT, THIS RELEASE OF URGENT

AMERICAN DIPLOMACY WITH IN THE REGION. HE SINGLED OUT THE NATION OF QATAR, WHICH HAS A VERY CLOSE RELATIONSHIP WITH HAMAS, AS BEING INSTRUMENTAL IN GETTING THESE AMERICANS OUT. AND HE ALSO, AS WE HEARD, THAT THERE ARE MORE AMERICANS WHO MAY BE ABLE TO COME OUT. SO LET’S BRING IN ABC NEWS

WHITE HOUSE CORRESPONDENT MARYALICE PARKS. MARYALICE, THE PRESIDENT SAID THAT THIS IS ONE OF HIS TOP GOALS IN THIS WAR, OBVIOUSLY TO GET AMERICAN HOSTAGE JUST BEING HELD BY HAMAS, BUT ALSO GET AMERICANS IN GAZA AND DUAL OUT. >> SO THIS IS PROGRESS TODAY IN PROGRESS. BUT, TERRY, IT HAS BEEN SLOW PROGRESS.

THIS WAS PROMISE. THIS WAS A GOAL OF THIS WHITE HOUSE OF THE LAST SEVERAL SINCE THE FIGHTING STARTED. IT’S BEEN REMARKABLE THAT WE HAVE SEEN SUCH FIGHTING THERE IN GAZA, KNOWING THAT WE HAD AMERICANS U.S. PASSPORT HOLDERS THAT WERE STUCK THERE ON THE GROUND. THE STATE DEPARTMENT HAD ESTIMATED BETWEEN 406 HUNDRED

AMERICANS A OF THEM DUAL NATIONALS STILL THERE IN GAZA. SO THIS IS A SIGNIFICANT THAT’S WHAT THE WHITE HOUSE IS SAYING. BUT JUST THE BEGINNING, WE’RE TALKING ABOUT A HANDFUL OF AMERICANS THAT WE KNOW HAVE BEEN ABLE TO GET THROUGH MANY, MANY MORE. THEY’RE STILL STUCK. AND THAT WAS INTERESTING LIKE

YOU SAID, THE PRESIDENT TALKED ABOUT HIS PERSONAL DIPLOMACY MAKING CALLS, MANY PHONE CALLS, NOT ONLY WITH ISRAELI PRIME MINISTER NETANYAHU, BUT WITH OTHER LEADERS IN THE REGION TRYING TO MAKE THIS HAPPEN. OBVIOUSLY IMPORTANT TO GET AID WORKERS OUT, BUT TO GET ALL OF THE AMERICANS OUT AS WELL.

THE PRESIDENT SAID HE HOPES THIS IS JUST THE BEGINNING AND THAT HUNDREDS WILL BE ABLE TO GET OUT OF THE RAFAH CROSSING IN THE NEXT FEW, PERHAPS AS MANY AS A THOUSAND, HE SAID. MARYALICE PARKS WANT TO THANK YOU VERY MUCH FOR YOUR COVERAGE OF THAT AND YOUR HELP.

THANKS VERY MUCH. WELL, THANK YOU FOR STREAMING WITH US. >> WE’LL HAVE MORE NEWS JUST AHEAD FIRST THING IN THE MORNING. THERE’S A LOT GOING ON. EVERYBODY IN THAT HOME IS OKAY TO CATCH YOU UP WITH WHAT HAPPENED OVERNIGHT. WE ARE HERE AT FASHION’S BIGGEST NIGHT OUT. WHAT’S HAPPENING TODAY?

SONG AND CARCARTOONS. HOW DID THIS COME TO BE? >> MY MISSION IS TO PROVIDE INFORMATION THAT INFORMS PEOPLE AND PUT CHOCOLATE ON VEGETABLES. WE’RE TEACHING KIDS WHAT THEIR RIGHTS AND RESPONSIBILITIES AND ROLES AS CITIZENS ARE. WE LOVED “SCHOOLHOUSE ROCK,” BUT THAT WAS MADE DECADES AGO.

WE DECIDED THERE’S A NEW MODEL. WE PARTNERED WITH I-CIVICS TO CREATE A NEW PRODUCT, CREATED ANIMATED CHARACTERS, CATCHY SONGS TO TEACH KIDS THE BILL OF RIGHTS, THE CONSTITUTION AND HOW THEY CAN BE ACTIVE PARTICIPANTS IN OUR DEMOCRACY. >> DeMarco: THERE WAS ALSO A

PUSH TO MAKE SURE THESE YOUNG, ANIMATED CHARACTERS LOOKED LIKE AMERICA. WHY IS DIVERSITY IMPORTANT? >> IT’S IMPORTANT TO HAVE CHARACTERS THAT LOOK LIKE GEN ALPHA, KIDS BORN AFTER THE YEAR 2010. WE WANTED TO MAKE SURE THE CHARACTERS LOOK FUN AND HIP AND

COOL AND YOUNG, BUT ALSO PUT THEM INTO SCENES AND ENVIRONMENTS THAT ARE RELEVANT TO KIDS. THEY’RE IN SWIMMING POOLS. THEY’RE AT PLAY GROUNDS. THEY’RE IN A LUNCH CAFETERIA, ON A BASKETBALL COURT, LEARNING RULES, HOW TO DISAGREE MORE EFFECTIVELY AND USING DISPUTES

THEY HAVE IN SCHOOL TO TEACH THE FRAMEWORK OF HOW WE CAN WORK TOGETHER AND ACTUALLY BUILD LAWS AND OUTCOMES THAT ARE MORE PRODUCTIVE FOR ALL OF US. >> DeMarco: START THEM YOUNG. >> Eva: FOR SURE. YOU HAVE FAMOUS LADIES HELPING YOU, JILL BIDEN, LAURA BUSH. WHAT ARE THEIR ROLES?

>> THEY’RE LIFE LONG EDUCATORS. WE’RE HONORED TO SHOW THE WORLD IT’S BIPARTISAN. LEARNING HOW TO BE A GOOD CITIZEN ISN’T ABOUT BEING A DEMOCRAT OR REPUBLICAN. IT’S ABOUT HOW CAN I USE MY VOICE TO MAKE MY COMMUNITY BETTER ON THE LOCAL LEVEL UP TO THE FEDERAL LEVEL.

WE WANTED TO SHOW THE WORLD THAT THIS IS NOT ABOUT PARTY. IT’S ABOUT COUNTRY AND CITIZENSHIP AND THAT STARTS EVEN BEFORE YOU CAN VOTE. MY FAVORITE SCENE IN THE SHOW IS WHEN THE KIDS ARE VOTING AND THEY THINK THERE’S GOING TO BE A PIZZA PARTY, BUT NONE OF THEM

SHOW UP AND VOTE. THEY ACTUALLY GET AN EGG SALAD PARTY. THAT’S WHAT HAPPENS WHEN YOU DON’T VOTE. YOU GET EGG SALAD AS OPPOSED TO PIZZA. THAT’S HOW WE TEACH THESE KIDS. >> Eva: WE ALL WANT PIZZA. >> DeMarco: THAT WILL TEACH YOU A LESSON. WE LOVE IT.

MATTHEW, THANK YOU. GOOD TO SEE YOU. YOU CAN CHECK OUT “WELL VERSED” ACROSS ALL NICKELODEON PLATFORMS AND PARAMOUNT PLUS. >>> UP NEXT, DR. JEN HAS HER EYE ON YOUR HALLOWEEN PUMPKIN. >> Eva: PLUS, A GROWING TREND THAT MAY HAV AN IMPACT INTO TREATING DEPRESSION AND

TYPE OF HAIR LOSS THAT AFFECTS MEN AND WOMEN. RECENTLY IN THE LAST COUPLE YEARS IT’S EXPERIENCED A REAL BOOM IN POPULARITY AS AN OFF-LABEL TREATMENT, PARTICULARLY FOR WOMEN WITH THINNING HAIR, HAIR LOSS, USED IN LOWER DOSES. ONCE DERMATOLOGISTS — TO BE

VIRGINIA AND MARYLAND, A SHORTAGE OF THE SUPPLY. IT’S AN ELECTIVE MEDICATION. I PERSONALLY TAKE THE ORAL FORM OF THIS PRESCRIPTION MEDICATION TO HELP WITH THINNING HAIR AND HAIR LOSS THAT I’VE BEEN VERY PUBLIC ABOUT. IT SPEAKS TO A BIGGER ISSUE

WHICH IS THAT IF THIS DRUG IS IN SHORT SUPPLY, IMAGINE DRUGS THAT AREN’T OPTIONAL, THAT ARE NECESSARY, LIFE OR DEATH SIGNIFICANCE. OUR DRUG SUPPLY IN THIS COUNTRY IS A MAJOR ISSUE. >> DeMarco: WHAT CAN YOU DO IF IT’S IN SHORT SUPPLY? >> Dr. Jen: PLAN AHEAD.

DON’T LET THINGS GO TO THE LAST MINUTE. ASK YOUR PRESCRIBING PHYSICIAN IF THERE ARE OTHER ALTERNATIVES. DON’T TAKE A MEDICATION UNLESS IT’S NECESSARY FOR YOU. EVERYONE NEEDS TO DECISION FOR THEMSELVES. >> DeMarco: DOC, THANK YOU. BACK It All Began. So beautiful. Suddenly, there was a shop.

THE IDEAL DOSING ARE STILL BEING STUDIED. THERE’S A RISK KETAMINE COULD INDUCE A PSYCHOTIC EPISODE IN CERTAIN PATIENTS. >> PEOPLE WHO HAVE SCHIZOPHRENIA, SO FAR WE WOULD NOT RECOMMEND. THERE ARE PEOPLE WHO ARE DEVELOPING A PSYCHIATRIC ILLNESS, WE WOULD TYPICALLY NOT

A DRUG THAT’S A DERIVATIVE OF KETAMINE. >> Dr. Jen: WE TALKED BEFORE ABOUT THIS. THIS AREA OF PSYCHIATRY LOOSELY UNDER THE UMBRELLA OF PSYCHODELICS IS EXPLODING IN RESEARCH AND DEVELOPMENT. THAT FDA-APPROVED COUSIN TO KETAMINE IS S-KETAMINE. IT’S A NASAL SPRAY.

A DERIVATIVE OF A DRUG IS NOT THE SAME THING. IT HAS DIFFERENT SIDE EFFECTS, DIFFERENT INDICATIONS, DIFFERENT DOSING. IF YOU’RE CONSIDERING EITHER OF THESE OR ANY TYPE OF TREATMENT UNDER THE UMBRELLA OF PSYCHODELICS, IT’S NOT A DIY TYPE OF THING.

IT’S NOT A LET’S GO FOR THE CHEAPEST VERSION. THIS SHOULD BE DONE UNDER ONGOING PROFESSIONAL MEDICAL TREATMENT AND MANAGEMENT. THERE’S A LOT OF INTEREST AND EXCITEMENT. >> Eva: WE HAVE A MUSICAL TREAT AHEAD FOR YOU ON “GMA3.” THE 7-YEAR-OLD SINGING SENSATION

STRIKE ON THAT MASSIVE REFUGEE CAMP IN GAZA. THE IDF REPORTING IT TARGETED HAMAS TERRORISTS AT THE CAMP, ACCUSING THE GROUP OF DELIBERATELY BUILDING INFRASTRUCTURE AROUND AND WITHIN CIVILIAN AREAS. WHAT WE’RE LEARNING AT THIS, PLUS THE NEW PROGRESS IN THE PUSH TO ALLOW AMERICANS THROUGH THAT KEYBOARD CROSSING WITH EGYPT.

ALSO, DONALD TRUMP JUNIOR TAKING THE STAND IN THAT CIVIL FRAUD TRIAL IN NEW YORK, THREATENING HIS FAMILY’S BUSINESS EMPIRE. WHAT HE TOLD THE COURT TODAY. AND THE FED MAKING ANOTHER KEY INTEREST RATE DECISION, HOW IT COULD IMPACT THE ECONOMY. FAMILIES FACE HIGH MORTGAGE AND CREDIT CARD RATES. BUT BEGIN WITH ISRAEL

CONFIRMING YET AGAIN THIS SECOND AIR STRIKE TARGETING DENSELY POPULATED REFUGEE CAMP IN NORTHERN GAZA. THE IDF REPORTING THAT ITS FIGHTER JETS TARGETED A HAMAS COMMAND AND CONTROL COMPLEX AT THE SITE OF THIS REFUGEE CAMP, KILLING WITH THE GROUP. NOW THE HAMAS RUN HEALTH AGENCY IN GAZA REPORTING THAT, QUOTE,

TENS OF PEOPLE WERE INJURED AND KILLED. ISRAELI OFFICIALS AGAIN ACCUSING HAMAS OF USING CIVILIANS AS HUMAN SHIELDS, SAYING THAT THEY HAD BEEN URGING PEOPLE TO EVACUATE THAT AREA. >> NOW, THIS COMES JUST ONE DAY AFTER THE IDF SAID IT STRUCK THAT SAME REFUGEE CAMP KILLING ONE OF THE LEADERS BEHIND

THAT INITIAL DEADLY SEVENTH TERROR ATTACK IN ISRAEL. NOW, IN THE MEANTIME, FOR THE FIRST TIME IN MORE THAN THREE WEEKS SINCE THIS CONFLICT BEGAN. PALESTINIAN OFFICIALS REPORTING THAT HUNDREDS OF FOREIGN PASSPORT HOLDERS HAVE BEEN ALLOWED THROUGH THAT CRITICAL RAFAH BORDER FROM GAZA INTO EGYPT. THEY ALSO SAY THAT 76 GAZAN

PATIENTS, SOME OF THEM BADLY WOUNDED, CROSSED INTO EGYPT AND THAT DOZENS MORE AID TRUCKS ALLOWED THROUGH THE OTHER DIRECTION INTO GAZA. NOW, PRESIDENT BIDEN SPEAKING ABOUT THE RAFAH CROSSING JUST A SHORT TIME AGO. >> WE’RE IN A SITUATION WHERE SAFE PASSAGE WOUNDED PALESTINIANS AND FOREIGN NATIONALS TO EXIT GAZA HAS STARTED.

AMERICAN CITIZENS WILL EXIT TODAY AS PART OF THE FIRST GROUP OF PROBABLY OVER A THOUSAND. WE’LL SEE MORE OF THIS PROCESS GOING ON IN THE COMING. >> WELL, ABC NEWS MATT RIVERS IS LIVE FOR US IN, TEL AVIV, ISRAEL WITH MORE. MATT, THANK YOU FOR BEING WITH US. AND MATT, WHAT MORE

ISRAELI OFFICIALS SAYING ABOUT THIS NEW STRIKE AT THAT REFUGEE CAMP THERE IN NORTHERN GAZA AND HOW ARE PALESTINIAN OFFICIALS RESPONDING THERE? >> KATE, AND THIS IS THE SECOND STRIKE IN A 24 HOUR SPAN IN THAT JABALYA REFUGEE CAMP. WE SHOULD REMIND OUR VIEWERS THAT IS ONE OF THE MOST DENSELY

POPULATED PART OF GAZA. AND YET THAT NOT DETERRING ISRAELI OFFICIALS FROM CARRYING OUT THESE STRIKES AGAINST WHAT THEY CALL HAMAS LEADERSHIP ,SAYING THAT THEY TARGETED YET ANOTHER COMMAND AND CONTROL CENTER, THAT HAMAS USES THERE, KILLING WHAT THEY WOULD CALL HAMAS TERRORISTS IN THAT PART OF GAZA. AND IT’S JUST NOT FAR AWAY FROM

WHERE THAT AIRSTRIKE WAS CARRIED YESTERDAY. THEY HAVE ACKNOWLEDGED THAT THERE ARE CIVILIAN CASUALTIES AS RESULT OF THAT, BUT THAT IS NOT STOPPING THEM FROM CARRYING OUT THESE KIND OF STRIKES. CLEARLY, ISRAELI OFFICIALS THINKING THAT THEY CAN MAKE A DIFFERENCE IN THIS CONFLICT BY TARGETING SOME OF THESE AREAS, EVEN THOUGH THEY ARE

DENSELY PACKED WITH CIVILIANS. AND AS YOU MENTIONED AT THE TOP THERE, WE’RE HEARING FROM THE HAMAS RUN GAZA HEALTH MINISTRY SAYING THAT AT LEAST TENS OF PEOPLE WERE KILLED AND INJURED. AND THAT IS NOT A SURPRISE GIVEN HOW DENSELY POPULATED IS. SO IT DOES APPEAR THAT THIS IS THIS NEW REALITY IN OR

AT LEAST THE CONTINUATION OF THE REALITY THAT WE’VE SEEN SINCE. THIS CONFLICT BEGAN. CIVILIANS ARE CONTINUING TO DIE AS. ISRAELI OFFICIALS SAY THEY ARE CONTINUING TO TARGET AND KILL HAMAS LEADERSHIP. >> AND ALSO AT THE STATE DEPARTMENT HAS SAID NOW THAT WAS IN TOUCH WITH THE ROUGHLY 400 AMERICANS AND 600

OF THEIR IMMEDIATE FAMILY MEMBERS WHO HAVE NOW INDICATED THAT THEY WANT TO LEAVE. SO WHAT IS THE LATEST THERE? YEAH, THIS HAS BEEN AN ONGOING SITUATION RIGHT FROM THE BEGINNING OF THIS. WE’VE KNOWN THAT THERE HUNDREDS OF AMERICAN OF AMERICAN CITIZENS, AS WELL AS THEIR IMMEDIATE FAMILY MEMBERS TRAPPED IN GAZA.

AND THE QUESTION HAS BEEN SINCE THE BEGINNING OF ALL THIS, HOW WILL THEY BE LET OUT INTO EGYPT, THE NEGOTIATIONS BETWEEN THE ISRAELIS THE EGYPTIANS, THE AMERICANS, THE QATARIS INVOLVED AS WELL, AND IT LED UP TO TODAY, WHICH FOR THE FIRST TIME WE HAVE SEEN FOREIGN PASSPORT HOLDERS EXIT THE GAZA STRIP.

HUNDREDS OF PEOPLE WITH FOREIGN PASSPORTS WERE ALLOWED OUT, BUT ONLY FIVE AMERICANS, THESE FIVE AMERICANS BELONGING TO DIFFERENT AID ORGANIZATIONS OPERATING IN GAZA. BUT THE STATE DEPARTMENT SAYING THEY ARE OPTIMISTIC THAT OVER THE COMING DAYS AND AGAIN, IT’S VERY FLUID, THAT OVER THE COMING DAYS, THE REMAINING AMERICANS, 400 CITIES, AMERICAN CITIZENS PLUS

THEIR IMMEDIATE FAMILY MEMBERS, WILL ALLOWED OUT. AND THEY’VE BEEN SENDING EMAILS TO THAT EFFECT TO THESE AMERICAN. BUT WE’VE BEEN IN TOUCH AS A NEWS ORGANIZATION WITH MEMBERS OF THAT AMERICAN POPULATION THERE WHO ARE FRUSTRATED WITH THE STATE DEPARTMENT, BASICALLY SAYING THAT THEY DON’T EVEN HAVE GOOD E-MAIL SERVICE.

AND SO WAITING FOR AN EMAIL TO TELL THEM TO GO TO THE BORDER. TOUGH SITUATION, RIGHT? >> I SPOKE WITH THE FAMILIES WHO SAY, YOU KNOW, WE’VE BEEN TO THE RAFAH BORDER CROSSING SO MANY TIMES AND NOTHING IS HAPPENING FOR US. I ALSO MET THE IDF SHARING MORE DETAILS ABOUT ITS MILITARY

PLANS TODAY. AND MATT, YOU KNOW, JUST YESTERDAY WE SPOKE ABOUT THE IDF SOLDIERS ENGAGING IN HAND-TO-HAND COMBAT WITH HAMAS. SO NOW WHAT CAN WE EXPECT IN THE HOURS AND DAYS AHEAD? >> I MEAN, THERE’S JUST NO QUESTION THAT CONTINUES TO PUSH FORWARD IN FURTHER AND FURTHER INTO GAZA, DIRECTLY CONFRONTING HAMAS.

BOTH SIDES HAVE PUT OUT VIDEO OF SOME OF THOSE CONFRONTATIONS. WE SAW VIDEO EARLIER TODAY THAT HAMAS PUT OF ITS FIGHTING WITH ISRAELI TROOPS. SO THIS IS SOME VERY, VERY INTENSE FIGHTING REALLY, YOU KNOW, CLOSE QUARTERS COMBAT BETWEEN THESE TWO SIDES. AND I THINK THAT’S ONLY GOING TO BECOME MORE AND MORE COMMON

AS ISRAELI FORCES CONTINUE TO PUSH FURTHER TOWARD GAZA, BECAUSE THAT IS A VERY DENSELY PACKED URBAN ENVIRONMENT. WHAT WE’VE SEEN, NORTHERN GAZA, NOTHING COMPARED TO WHAT WE’RE GOING TO SEE OVER THE DAYS AND WEEKS AHEAD. >> SCARY TO THINK ABOUT THAT REVERSE. OUR THANKS TO YOU, AS ALWAYS.

AND NOW TO THE CORNELL UNIVERSITY STUDENT CHARGED WITH MAKING THREATS AGAINST. JEWISH STUDENTS ON CAMPUS NOW MAKING HIS FIRST APPEARANCE TODAY IN FEDERAL COURT. NOW, AMONG OTHER ACCUSATIONS, FEDERAL PROSECUTORS SAY THAT 21 YEAR OLD PATRICK DAI CALLED FOR THE DEATH OF JEWISH PEOPLE ON SOCIAL MEDIA, THREATENED TO BRING AN ASSAULT RIFLE

TO CAMPUS AND, QUOTE, SHOOT UP A KOSHER DINING HALL. WELL HE’S FACING UP TO FIVE YEARS IN PRISON IF CONVICTED. NOW, HE DID WAIVE HIS RIGHT TO A BAIL HEARING AND WILL REMAIN IN JAIL. ATTORNEY GENERAL MERRICK GARLAND WEIGHING IN ON THIS TODAY, ADDRESSING THE CASE, SAYING IN PART THAT NO

COMMUNITY IN THIS COUNTRY SHOULD HAVE TO LIVE IN FEAR OF HATE FUELED VIOLENCE. WE ALSO HAVE SOME NEW DETAILS TODAY, THESE TWO HIGH PROFILE CASES INVOLVING FORMER PRESIDENT DONALD TRUMP STARTING IN NEW YORK. DONALD TRUMP JR. TESTIFYING IN THAT CIVIL FRAUD TRIAL, THREATENING HIS FAMILY’S BUSINESS EMPIRE. AND THEN IN FLORIDA TODAY,

A JUDGE WEIGHING A NEW PUSH FROM THE FORMER PRESIDENT’S LEGAL TEAM TO DELAY THE TRIAL OVER HIS HANDLING OF CLASSIFIED DOCUMENTS. >> I WANT TO BRING IN ABC NEWS INVESTIGATIVE REPORTER OLIVIA RUBIN, WHO’S OUTSIDE COURTHOUSE IN LOWER MANHATTAN. OLIVIA, THANK YOU FOR BEING WITH US. WHAT CAME OF DON JR’S TESTIMONY

TODAY? WELL, THE KEY ASPECT OF DON JUNIOR’S TESTIMONY AND IT CAME AT THE VERY END OF THE DAY TODAY, WHEN HE ESSENTIALLY SOUGHT TO DISTANCE HIMSELF FROM THOSE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS THAT ARE AT THE CENTER OF THE CASE HERE ARE THE ONES THAT THE ATTORNEY GENERAL’S OFFICE SAYS WERE FRAUDULENT.

SO HE WAS ASKED ABOUT THOSE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS. AND I HAVE HIS EXACT TESTIMONY FOR YOU. HE WAS ASKED SPECIFICALLY IF HE WORKED ON THIS FINANCIAL STATEMENTS OF CONDITIONS, AND HE SAID, I DID NOT. THE ACCOUNTANTS WORKED IT. THAT’S WHAT WE PAID THEM TO DO. SO REALLY CAME TO TRYING

TO SHIFT THE BLAME ON TO THE FEET OF THE ACCOUNTANTS AND, THE LOWER LEVEL PEOPLE WHO PREPARED THOSE STATEMENTS AND ESSENTIALLY SAYING, WELL, HE SIGNED OFF ON IT. IT WAS NOT HIM WHO PUT THEM. AND I WOULD ALSO JUST POINT OUT, LASTLY, KAYLA, THAT THAT TESTIMONY FROM DON JR.

CAME AT THE VERY END OF THE DAY TODAY, JUST BEFORE COURT BROKE FOR THE DAY AND HE SPENT MOST OF THE DAY REALLY JUST ANSWERING FOUNDATIONAL QUESTIONS TO THE POINT WHERE EVEN THE JUDGE AT ONE POINT ASKED THE RELEVANCE OF WHAT THE ATTORNEY GENERAL OFFICE’S LINE OF WAS.

SO WITH THAT TONIGHT, HE WILL BE BACK ON THE STAND TOMORROW AT 10 A.M. TO CONTINUE HIS TESTIMONY. INTERESTING. OLIVIA. AND OLIVIA, WHAT ABOUT THIS OTHER CASE INVOLVING THE FORMER PRESIDENT AND HIS HANDLING OF THESE CLASSIFIED DOCUMENTS? TRUMP’S LEGAL TEAM, AS WE KNOW, IS REQUESTING DELAY IN THAT CASE.

AND OLIVIA, THE FEDERAL JUDGE IS SET TO HEAR THESE ARGUMENTS THAT TODAY. SO WHAT’S THE LATEST THERE CAME OUT SHE HEARD THOSE ARGUMENTS. THE JUDGE IN FLORIDA DID AND ESSENTIALLY OUT OF THAT HEARING, SHE’S SAYING THAT SIGNALING THAT SHE GOING TO PUSH BACK SOME OF THE DEADLINES IN THAT CASE.

REMEMBER, TRIAL IN THE CLASSIFIED DOCUMENTS CASE IN FLORIDA SET FOR MAY OF NEXT YEAR. SO SHE DID NOT INDICATE IF SHE SPECIFICALLY WOULD PUSH BACK THE TRIAL ITSELF OR JUST SOME OF THE HEARINGS AND DEADLINES LEADING UP TO IT. WE WILL HAVE TO WAIT FOR AN OFFICIAL RULING FROM HER ON

TO SEE HOW FAR IT GOES. BUT ANY DELAY, KATE, I REMEMBER FOR DONALD TRUMP IS A SIGNIFICANT WIN FOR HIM. FOR HIM. IS TRYING TO DELAY ALL OF HIS CRIMINAL CASES ANYTHING HE CAN AND PUSH IT BACK AS FAR AS POSSIBLE. SO AGAIN, NOT CLEAR YET ON HOW

FAR HE WILL PUSH THIS BACK. THE JUDGE HAS INDICATED THAT. SHE WILL. BUT EVEN AGAIN, A SLIGHT PUSHBACK HERE, WIN FOR DONALD TRUMP AND EXACTLY WHAT HE WOULD WANT GOING INTO THIS HEARING AFTER REQUESTING DELAYS. ALL RIGHT. OLIVIA RUBIN, YOU FOR KEEPING TABS ON ALL OF THAT FOR US. WE APPRECIATE IT.

NOW TO THE DAY’S ECONOMIC HEADLINES. THE FEDERAL RESERVE NOT RAISING RATES. THE FED ANNOUNCING ITS DECISION TODAY, A MOVE BEING CLOSELY WATCHED IN D.C. AND FROM WALL STREET TO MAIN STREET. EARLIER TODAY, PRESIDENT SPOKE ABOUT THE HEALTH OF THE ECONOMY. >> A YEAR AGO, EXPERTS SAID, A RECESSION WAS ALMOST

GUARANTEED, NEVER MUCH AGAIN. RECESSIONS COME AND RECESSIONS COME TO ME. WELL, GUESS WHAT? JUST LAST WEEK, WE LEARNED THE ECONOMY GREW BY NEARLY 5%. THE LAST QUARTER. >> SO THE EXPERTS FROM ALL. WELL, MEANWHILE, THE DEPARTMENT OF EDUCATION ADMITS THAT ROUGHLY 830,000 PEOPLE MISSED THEIR FIRST PAYMENTS AFTER THE LOAN

SERVICERS FAILED TO SEND OUT TIMELY NOTICES TO MORE THAN 2 MILLION BORROWERS. AND THAT IS 21,000 PEOPLE RECEIVED INCORRECT BILLS . >> ALSO, 16,000 MORE BORROWERS RECEIVED BILLS OF PAYMENTS DUE ,DESPITE THE BIDEN ADMINISTRATION CANCELING THEIR DEBT. A BIT OF A MESS THERE. SO LET’S BRING IN ABC NEWS CORRESPONDENT ELIZABETH SCHULZE

FOR MORE ON THIS. ELIZABETH, FIRST OF ALL, LET’S START WITH THE FEDERAL RESERVE KEEPING THESE INTEREST RATES UNCHANGED. SO WHY DOES THIS DECISION WHAT DOES IT MEAN FOR AMERICANS AND THEIR BORROWING COSTS? WHEN YOU THINK ABOUT, YOU KNOW, YOUR MORTGAGE OR, YOUR CREDIT CARDS? >> WELL, IT CAN GET A LITTLE

BIT OF A REPRIEVE WHEN IT COMES TO THOSE HIGH BORROWING COSTS. WE’VE SEEN THE FEDERAL RESERVE RAISE INTEREST RATES. 11 TIMES OVER THE PAST YEAR AND A HALF. THIS IS PART OF THE FED’S FIGHT AGAINST INFLATION. IT WANTS TO SLOW DOWN SPENDING IN THE ECONOMY IN ORDER TO BRING THE PRICES THAT WE

PAY. AND THERE ARE SIGNS THAT THAT’S BEEN WORKING. INFLATION HAS BEEN COOLING. SO WHAT THE FED DID TODAY, IT SAYS WE’RE LOOKING AT THIS DATA, WE’RE LOOKING AT OUR JOB AND WE’RE SAYING WE’RE NOT QUITE DONE YET, BUT WE’RE GOING TO TAKE A LITTLE BIT OF A BREATHER.

SO WHEN IT COMES TO YOUR MORTGAGE RATE, WE’VE SEEN THAT DOUBLE ON AVERAGE MORTGAGE RATES ARE AT A 23 YEAR HIGH. CREDIT CARD RATES ARE AT A RECORD HIGH RIGHT NOW. THOSE RATES COULD STAY THIS WAY A LITTLE BIT LONGER, HOWEVER, BECAUSE THE FED IS NOT SAYING IT’S READY TO INTEREST RATES

QUITE YET. IT SAYS. WE WANT TO ASSESS THE ECONOMY. WE WANT TO SEE IF INFLATION CONTINUES TO IMPROVE. BUT IT’S GOING TO BE A LITTLE BIT OF A TIME BEFORE THOSE RATES COME MEANINGFULLY DOWN, AT LEAST. >> AND ELIZABETH, WHAT ABOUT THIS TALK OF A RECESSION?

I MEAN, CAN WE AVOID? WELL, THE FED CHAIR WAS PRETTY BLUNT IN SAYING THAT HE THINKS A RECESSION CAN BE AVOIDED. AND THIS IS SOMETHING THAT HAS BEEN A BIG DEBATE ON WALL STREET. CAN THE ECONOMY GO THROUGH THIS TIME OF REALLY HIGH INTEREST RATES AND STILL AVOID A BIG DOWNTURN?

AND ONE OF THE REASONS WHY IS THAT THE JOBS MARKET IS JUST REALLY STRONG STILL. WE’RE SEEING A NUMBER OF PEOPLE CONTINUE TO BE EMPLOYED EVERY SINGLE MONTH. WE’LL GET A NEW REPORT ON THE JOBS MARKET ON FRIDAY. AND AS LONG AS THAT’S THE CASE PEOPLE HAVE STEADY PAYCHECKS, THEY’RE OUT SPENDING

THEIR MONEY. CONSUMER SPENDING HAS BEEN REALLY RESILIENT. AND FOR THE FIRST TIME, REALLY IN THE LAST MONTHS, WE’VE SEEN PEOPLE’S WAGES GOING UP AT A FASTER PACE THAN INFLATION. THAT MEANS MORE MONEY IN PEOPLE’S POCKETS. THAT’S ALL GOOD NEWS. AT LEAST THAT’S WHAT THE FED IS, A SIGN THAT WE COULD AVOID

THAT DREADED RECESSION. OKAY, ELIZABETH, AND WHAT ABOUT THE RESTART OF THESE FEDERAL STUDENT LOAN? WE’RE LEARNING ABOUT SEVERAL GLITCHES IN THIS PROCESS AFTER THIS. THREE YEAR PAUSE ON PAYMENTS ENDED LAST MONTH. I MEAN, THIS IS SO SIGNIFICANT FOR SO MANY FAMILIES. I KNOW YOU’VE SPOKEN WITH THEM .

>> SO WHAT IS THE GOVERNMENT DOING TO FIX THESE ISSUES? SO MANY BORROWERS AND IN SOME WAYS, THESE GLITCHES WERE EXPECTED BECAUSE WE HAD THIS MORE THAN THREE YEAR PAUSE ON PAYMENTS. AND WHEN ALL OF THOSE WENT BACK ONLINE, THERE WERE GOING TO BE SOME HICCUPS. SO WHAT THE FEDERAL GOVERNMENT

IS DOING IS ALLOWING A ONE YEAR GRACE PERIOD WHERE BASICALLY IF A BORROWER GETS ONE OF THOSE INCORRECT BILLS AND YOU CONTINUOUSLY 21,000 PEOPLE HAVE ALREADY RECEIVED INCORRECT BILLS. 16,000 PEOPLE RECEIVE BILLS DESPITE SAYING THEIR DEBTS WOULD BE CANCELED. SO THE ADMINISTRATION IS DOING IS THERE’S A ONE YEAR GRACE

PERIOD WHERE IF YOU MISS A PAYMENT, YOU WILL NOT BE HELD DELINQUENT. SO THAT’S REALLY IMPORTANT FOR BORROWERS WHO ARE TRYING TO GET BACK INTO THE SWING OF THINGS AND FOR THESE LOAN SERVICERS WHO ARE ALSO TRYING TO FIGURE THINGS OUT. AGAIN BUT IMPORTANT TO KNOW THAT DURING THAT TIME, INTEREST

WILL STILL KEEP ACCRUING ON YOUR STUDENT LOANS. SO, YOU KNOW, IF YOU’RE NOT MAKING YOUR PAYMENTS, YOUR BALANCE COULD GO. AND THAT’S A REALLY IMPORTANT THING TO KEEP IN MIND AS YOU’RE LOOKING AT YOUR STUDENT LOAN DEBT GOING FORWARD. DANA? OH, NO KIDDING. ALL RIGHT, ELIZABETH SCHULZE. OUR THANKS TO YOU AS ALWAYS.

>> AND COMING UP NEXT HERE, A TOWN MANAGER BLOCKED A FROM HIS FACEBOOK PAGE. SO IS IT A CASE OF PROTECTING PRIVACY OR BLOCKING FREE SPEECH? CASE WILL BE DECIDED BY THE SUPREME COURT. THAT’S NEXT. WHENEVER NEWS BREAKS THE CRUSH OF FAMILIES HERE IN PORTLAND, HERE IN KENTUCKY, NO MATCH FOR

TO THE TO THE THE OFFICIAL MEDIA AROUND THE CITY. >> FACEBOOK WAS JUST A SECONDARY AND WHEN IT CAME TO CRITICISM POSTED ON THAT PAGE, I’LL TAKE CRITICISM FROM MY RESIDENTS, BUT I’M NOT GOING TO HAVE A CONVICTED FELON WHO DOESN’T LIVE HERE STALKING FAMILY. ONLY THING I ACTUALLY EVER POST

I REMEMBER WAS HE PUT THREE LITTLE SMILEY FACES WHICH WERE REAL CREEPY AND A RANDOM POST. HE SAYS YOU WERE TRYING TO CENSOR HIM. WERE YOU TRYING TO SILENCE YOUR CRITICS? >> NO, NO, NOT AT ALL. IT’S NOT A PUBLIC FORUM. NOT A PUBLIC. YOU CAN COME TO CITY COUNCIL

MEETINGS. YOU CAN WRITE ME A LETTER ON MY CITY EMAIL ADDRESS. YOU CAN WRITE ME A LETTER HERE. YOU COME TO MY OFFICE AND TALK TO ME. THERE IS LITERALLY 100 DIFFERENT WAYS TO GET YOUR CRITICISM TO ME. BUT MY PERSONAL PAGE DOESN’T HAVE TO BE ONE OF THEM.

>> IT’S A DEBATE OVER PERSONAL MEDIA ACCOUNTS OPERATED BY GOVERNMENT OFFICIALS AND THE FIRST AMENDMENT’S PROTECTION OF FREE SPEECH. KATIE FALLOW WITH THE NIGHT FIRST AMENDMENT INSTITUTE AT COLUMBIA UNIVERSITY SAYS THE STAKES ARE SWEEPING PUBLIC OFFICIALS HAVE BEEN USING SOCIAL ACCOUNTS AS A PRIMARY WAY TO. TALK TO CONSTITUENTS ABOUT THE

WORK OF GOVERNMENT. AND IT IS EXTREMELY IMPORTANT THAT PEOPLE BE ABLE TO SPEAK TO THEIR PUBLIC OFFICIALS WITHOUT FEARING THAT THEY’RE GOING TO BE CENSORED BECAUSE THEIR VIEWPOINTS, CASES OF PUBLIC OFFICIALS ALLEGEDLY SILENCING, CENSORING THEIR CRITICS ONLINE HAVE BEEN GROWING IN A CASE CALIFORNIA ALSO BEFORE THE SUPREME COURT.

A GROUP OF PARENTS TO SCHOOL BOARD MEMBERS FOR BLOCKING THEIR CRITICISM ON SOCIAL AND ONE IN A CASE FROM 2017. SO DID A GROUP OF TWITTER USERS BLOCKED BY FORMER PRESIDENT DONALD. >> I THINK WE’RE LOOKING AT THE SAME CASE HERE. MR. FREED ENDED UP USING STARTED USING HIS FACEBOOK PAGE

TO GIVE DIRECTIVES ABOUT THE COVID RESPONSE AND THAT, YOU KNOW, AND AT THAT POINT, IT SEEMED PRETTY OFFICIAL. >> THERE’S NOTHING THAT PART OF MY JOB THAT REQUIRES ME TO USE SOCIAL MEDIA, THERE’S NOTHING DIRECTING ME TO USE SOCIAL MEDIA OR, HOW I SHOULD USE SOCIAL MEDIA.

IT WAS ME AND MY PERSONAL PHONE . >> PLEASE. I DON’T LIKE THE COMPARISONS TO DONALD TRUMP, FREED SAYS. MILLIONS OF PUBLIC OFFICIALS HAVE RIGHTS TOO, INCLUDING OWNING AND MANAGING A PERSONAL ACCOUNT ON SOCIAL MEDIA. IF I WAS USING AN OFFICIAL CITY REPORT HERE ON FACEBOOK PAGE AND I WAS BLOCKING PEOPLE.

I THINK WE’D HAVE AN ISSUE. ANYONE WHO LOOKS AT THAT PAGE KNOWS THAT OFFICIAL COMMUNICATION. >> THEY’RE NOT GOING TO LIKE THAT. AND I LOVE THAT LINK. HE SAYS THERE NEED TO BE CLEARER RULES. AND WHILE HE HOPES TO WIN HIS SUPREME COURT CASE, HE IN SOME WAYS HE’S ALREADY WON.

>> AND MY HOPE IS THAT THE JUSTICES, ONE WAY OR THE OTHER, THEY ARE GOING TO PUT A BRIGHT RULE IN PLACE ABOUT SOCIAL MEDIA AND PUBLIC OFFICIALS AND THEIR ACTIVITIES ON THERE. >> WHY BRING A CASE OVER DELETED FACEBOOK COMMENTS? I MEAN, YOU HAVE BIGGER FISH TO FRY. I DO.

>> MY FAVORITE NOW ON DEVELOPING RIGHT NOW IS SECOND STRIKE ON A REFUGEE CAMP IN GAZA. I’M KAYNA WHITWORTH IN LOS ANGELES AND THAT IS TODAY’S BIG STORY. ISRAELI DEFENSE FORCES TAKING RESPONSIBILITY FOR THIS LATEST ATTACK. DRAMATIC IMAGES SHOWING THE UTTER DEVASTATION. THE REFUGEE CAMP AND THE IDF

CONFIRMING THAT HAMAS TERRORISTS WERE KILLED IN THAT ATTACK. NOW, THIS COMES AS AMERICAN AID WORKERS ARE FINALLY ENTERING EGYPT. THE BORDER CROSSING BETWEEN GAZA AND EGYPT FOR THE FIRST TIME SINCE THE START OF THE WAR FOR, NATIONALS SEEN LEAVING GAZA. SEVERAL AMBULANCES CROSSING THE BORDER AS WELL. THIS AS THE DEEPENING CRISIS

CAN USE TO UNFOLD. THERE IS GROWING CONCERN ABOUT THE HOSTAGES BEING HELD THERE IN GAZA. AND I’LL BE SPEAKING WITH A FATHER WHOSE SON IS AMONG THEM. ALSO IN OUR SPOTLIGHT, THE HOUSE BACK TO WORK ON CAPITOL HILL, THE KEY ISSUES THAT LAWMAKERS ARE TACKLING WITH A NEW SPEAKER AT THE HELM .

OF COURSE, WE BEGIN WITH OUR BIG STORY, A SECOND STRIKE ON A REFUGEE CAMP IN GAZA. >> THE CONFIRMING THAT HAMAS TERRORISTS WERE KILLED IN THAT ATTACK IN. THIS AS THE PLEA FOR THE RELEASE OF THESE HOSTAGES BEING HELD IN GAZA IS GROWING EVEN LOUDER. NOW, AMONG THOSE HOSTAGES,

26-YEAR-OLD ALAN CHUM RHYS, ALAN’S FATHER, SAYS HE WAS KIDNAPPED FROM HIS HOME DURING THAT TERROR ATTACK IN ISRAEL ON OCTOBER 7TH. HIS FATHER, AVI, IS JOINING ME NOW. AND AVI, THANK YOU SO MUCH FOR TAKING THE TIME TO SPEAK WITH US. I CAN’T IMAGINE HOW DIFFICULT THIS HAS BEEN FOR YOU.

FIRST, HAVE YOU RECEIVED ANY INFORMATION ABOUT, YOUR SON, SINCE HE WAS KIDNAPPED? >> WELL, UNFORTUNATELY, FROM OCTOBER SEVEN, 10 A.M. IN THE MORNING, I HAVE NO IDEA WHAT’S HAPPENED TO MY SON. AND UNTIL WE DIDN’T GET ANY MESSAGE, THE HAMAS OR ANY OTHER PERSON ABOUT MY SON.

>> OR IT WAS JUST TODAY THAT THE NSC COORDINATOR, JOHN KIRBY, SAID THAT WHILE A BROAD CEASE FIRE IS NOT THE RIGHT, HE CONTINUES TO SUPPORT THIS IDEA OF A TEMPORARY PAUSE IN THE FIGHTING SO THAT NOT ONLY AID CAN GET IN AND PEOPLE CAN GET OUT, BUT SPECIFICALLY MAYBE HOSTAGES

COULD GET OUT. SO WHAT IS YOUR TAKE ON THAT? WELL, I’M NOT A POLITICIAN. I’M JUST A CIVILIAN IN ISRAEL. I KNOW MY SON WAS TAKEN FROM HIS HOUSE AS A HOSTAGE IN GAZA. AND I WANT HIM BACK. I DON’T KNOW. HOW SHOULD I COME TO MY GOVERNMENT OR TO THE HAMAS

GOVERNMENT AND ASK TO RELEASE ALL THE HOSTAGES BECAUSE? MY SON IS NOT A SOLDIER OR NOT A SOMEBODY WHO WAS FIGHTING. HE WAS JUST A CIVILIAN AT HIS HOME. THE PALESTINIAN PEOPLE CAME TO MY KIBBUTZ AND TO HIS HOUSE PULL HIM OUT AND KIDNAP HIM TO GAZA.

SO FOR ME, IF IT’S A CEASEFIRE ,NOT I DON’T CARE. >> I WANT MY SON BACK. UNDERSTANDABLE. AND WHAT IS YOUR REACTION WHEN YOU SEE THESE VIDEOS RELEASED OF THE HOSTAGES THAT ARE HELD BY HAMAS AND YOU SEE THESE VIDEOS AND YOU DON’T SEE YOUR IN THEM, THAT THE HAMAS

TOOK MY SON FROM HOUSE AND THEY PUT HIM SOMEWHERE IN GAZA . >> I DON’T KNOW HOW HOW I COME TO THEM AND ASKED THEM PLEASE RELEASE MY SON. HE DIDN’T DO ANYTHING TO YOU. A JUST A CITIZEN IS NOT AND ARMY GUY IS NOT A FIGHTER. HE CIVILIAN.

HE WAS STAYING PEACEFULLY IN HIS HOME. SO I DON’T KNOW HOW SHOULD COME TO THE THE HAMAS TAKE PLACE. RELEASE THEM. >> THEY DIDN’T HARM YOU EVER BRING. >> RIGHT. YOU KNOW, LAST WEEK WE SAW A BIT OF A SHIFT FROM THE IDF AND PRIME MINISTER BENJAMIN NETANYAHU THAT THEIR PRIORITY

WAS RESCUING HOSTAGES HELD BY HAMAS. AND YET IN THE LAST COUPLE OF DAYS, WE’RE HEARING, AS YOU KNOW, THAT THE IDF FOCUS ON KILLING HAMAS LEADERS, THIS FACE TO FACE COMBAT IN GAZA, THEY’RE MOVING FURTHER INTO GAZA EACH DAY. DOES THAT REASSURE YOU AT ALL THAT RESCUING THE HOSTAGES

IS STILL A PRIORITY FOR THE IDF ? BENJAMIN NETANYAHU IS A POLITICIAN. I’M NOT A POLITIC. I DON’T CARE WHAT IS TRYING TO. BENJAMIN NETANYAHU IS THE PRIME MINISTER OF ISRAEL. MY SON IS A CITIZEN OF ARGENTINA AND ISRAELI. SO FOR ME, THE FIRST PRIORITY IS TO RELEASE MY SON.

WHAT BENJAMIN ARE TRYING TO DO WITH THE HAMAS? IT’S HIS BUSINESS. MY SON IS NOT PART OF THIS BUSINESS. I WANT HIM OUT IMMEDIATELY. IT’S ABSOLUTELY UNDERSTANDABLE. AVI, THANK YOU FOR TALKING WITH US AND FOR SHARING YOUR STORY. AND PLEASE KEEP US UPDATED. >> WE’LL BE CHECKING IN WITH YOU.

OKAY? THANK YOU. PLEASE, I WILL ASK IF SOMEBODY IN THE OTHER SIDE IN GAZA IS LISTENING OR WATCHING THIS INTERVIEW. I’M ASKING TO KEEP HIM ALIVE SAFE, AND I WANT TO BACK AS FAST AS WE CAN IN PEACEFUL. >> THANK YOU VERY MUCH. OF COURSE. THANK YOU, AVI.

I WANT TO NOW BRING THE STORY TO OUR PANEL. SO JOINING US TODAY IS OUR ABC NEWS CONTRIBUTOR AND SIRIUS XM RADIO HOST MIKE MUSE, ALONG ABC NEWS, NATIONAL SECURITY AND DEFENSE ANALYST MICK MULROY AND ABC NEWS DEPUTY DIRECTOR AVERI HARPER AND ABC NEWS SENIOR PENTAGON REPORTER LUIS MARTINEZ.

THANK YOU ALL FOR BEING HERE WITH WITH ME. AND I YOU HEARD THAT AS WELL AS YOU’RE HEARING A TERRIFIED FATHER ESSENTIALLY PLEADING FOR HIS SON’S LIFE RIGHT NOW. AND SO MICK AS WE START HERE WITH YOU, YOU KNOW, THE IDF IS MAKING THEIR WAY ALL THE WAY INTO NORTHERN GAZA.

THEY’RE TALKING ABOUT FACE TO FACE COMBAT. SO IN ACTUALITY, WHAT DOES THAT REALLY MEAN IN TERMS OF RESCUING THESE HOSTAGES? AND COULD ANYTHING HAVE BEEN GAINED FROM THIS SOLDIER, THIS IDF SOLDIER THAT WAS RESCUED LAST WEEK? WHAT KIND OF INTELLIGENCE COULD SHE HAVE PROVIDED? YES, CAN I THAT IS A

GOOD QUESTION AND A GOOD POINT . I THINK SHE LIKELY WAS THOROUGHLY DEBRIEFED TO GET ALL THE INFORMATION THAT SHE KNOWS ABOUT HOW SHE WAS HELD, WHERE SHE WAS HELD, THE PEOPLE THAT WERE AROUND HER IN ALL OF THAT CIRCUMSTANCES, WHICH IS REALLY CRITICAL WHEN IT COMES TO FACILITATING AN ACTUAL

MILITARY OPERATION TO FREE SOME OTHER HOSTAGES. I THINK THAT WILL HAPPEN RIGHT. WE’VE SEEN, I THINK, AROUND 10,000 IDF SOLDIERS INFILTRATE FROM THE NORTH, FROM THE EAST AND FROM THE SEA, AND THEY ARE ESSENTIALLY SURROUNDING GAZA CITY. AND THEY’RE GETTING CLOSE. AND SOME OF THEM, I THINK, ARE ALREADY INSIDE THE CITY.

SO THIS IS URBAN COMBAT REALLY GETS DIFFICULT. I’VE SPENT A LOT OF MY CAREER IN URBAN COMBAT, AND IT IS THE WORST IT IS IT IS VIOLENT, IT IS DESTRUCTIVE, AND IT IS VERY CHAOTIC. YOU REALLY CAN’T TELL WHO’S WHO, ESPECIALLY WHEN YOU’RE FIGHTING PEOPLE WHO DELIBERATELY HIDE AMONGST

THE CIVILIAN POPULATION. AND WE KNOW HAMAS SOLDIERS, ACCORDING TO THE IDF, ALSO DRESSED CIVILIAN CLOTHING AS WELL. LUI TO YOU AND WHAT KOMPASS CITY HAVE YOU HEARD THAT THE U.S. SPECIAL FORCES OPERATIONS THERE, THEY’RE INVOLVED IN AIDING ISRAEL, AT LEAST GATHERING INFORMATION ABOUT THESE HOSTAGES TAKEN BY HAMAS.

>> WHAT ROLE ARE THEY PLAYING? WE KNOW THAT THERE IS A SMALL FORCE OF SPECIAL OPERATORS, AS THEY’RE KNOWN, WHO HAVE BEEN IN ISRAEL NOW FOR WEEKS. AND WHAT THEY HAVE BEEN DOING IS PROVIDING ASSISTANCE, PROVIDING INFORMATION, INTELLIGENCE TO THE ISRAELI MILITARY ABOUT SPECIFICALLY HOW THEY MIGHT HAVE TAKE SOME HOSTAGE

RESCUE OPERATIONS IF THEY GET INFORMATION ABOUT WHERE THESE HOSTAGES MAY BE. THE HARDEST PART IS ACTUALLY TRYING TO FIGURE OUT WHERE THEY MAY BE. WE KNOW THAT IN THAT ONE RESCUE OF THE MILITARY, THE ISRAELI MILITARY SOLDIER FROM PAST WEEK, THAT THERE WAS, I THINK, SUSPICION THAT THERE MAY HAVE

BEEN OTHER WHO WERE AT THAT SAME LOCATION AND INSTEAD THEY ONLY FOUND HER. SO I THINK THAT SHOWS THE DIFFICULTY IN TRYING TO ASCERTAIN EXACTLY WHERE THESE MAY BE. THIS U.S. TEAM IS THERE. THEY CAN PROVIDE THEIR EXPERIENCE, MICK SUGGESTED. A LOT OF SPECIAL OPERATORS OVER THE LAST 20 YEARS HAVE TONS

OF EXPERIENCE, ESPECIALLY AT THE TIER ONE LEVEL, AND SO THEY CAN PASS THAT ON TO THE ISRAELIS. BUT MOST IMPORTANTLY, THINK IT’S THE INFORMATION SHARING THAT IN PASSING OUT OF INTELLIGENCE THAT REALLY HELPS WITH THE ISRAELIS AND TRY TO ASCERTAIN EXACTLY WHERE THEY MIGHT BE. CERTAINLY AN AVERAGE HEARING EARLIER TODAY, NSC SPOKESPERSON

JOHN KIRBY ESSENTIALLY CONTINUED TO PUSH FOR A HUMANITARIAN PAUSE IN GAZA DESPITE THE PRESSURE COMING FROM THE DEMOCRATIC PARTY PARTY FOR A CEASE. SO WHAT ARE YOUR SOURCES TELLING YOU IN THE DEMOCRATIC ABOUT THESE LATEST CALLS FOR A CEASE FIRE AGAIN VERSUS A HUMANITARIAN PAUSE? >> RIGHT.

I THINK WHEN WE LOOK AT THIS FROM A POLITICAL LENS AND AGAIN, IT’S REALLY HEARTBREAKING TO HEAR THE STORY OF THAT, WHO JUST DESPERATELY WANTS HIS SON TO COME HOME. YOU HEAR FOLKS IN INCREASING CALLS FOR A PAUSE OR A CEASE FIRE, NOT ONLY TO TRY AND FIND SOME OF THESE HOSTAGES,

BUT ALSO TO ALLOW FOR HUMANITARIAN AID TO COME IN TO GAZA. AND I THINK WHEN WE LOOK AT THIS POLITICALLY, IT’S GOING TO START TO IMPACT PRESIDENT BIDEN AS HE STARTS HIS REELECTION. RIGHT. THERE ARE MUSLIM LEADERS AND GROUPS THAT ARE CALLING FOR A CEASE FIRE AND TO WITHHOLD

SUPPORT FOR BIDEN IN KEY SWING STATES AND PLACES LIKE MICHIGAN, WISCONSIN, PENNSYLVANIA, THE EYES OF THIS COMMUNITY ARE ON THE BIDEN ADMINISTRATION TO SEE HOW THEY HANDLE THIS CONFLICT. >> AND, MIKE, TO YOU, YOU KNOW, AS AVERY POINTS OUT, I MEAN, THIS HAS BEEN SO POLITICIZED.

AND MIKE, AS I WAS SPEAKING WITH THAT FATHER, IT JUST SORT OF STRUCK ME THAT SOMETIMES THE HEADLINES IN THIS STORY ARE SO POLITICAL AND ARE WE SOMETIMES JUST OVERLOOKING THE INDIVIDUAL GRIEVING FAMILIES RIGHT NOW. >> WE ARE. THAT SOMETHING ABOUT THAT INTERVIEW THAT YOU DID WITH THAT FATHER REALLY STRUCK ME.

AND, YOU KNOW, WE HAVE TO REPORT ON THIS EVERY DAY SO THAT ALMOST SOMETIMES WE BECOME NUMB TO IT. BUT EVERY NOW AND THEN, A STORY BREAKS THROUGH. AND HEARING THAT FATHER’S STORY PLEAD HIS CASE ABOUT HIS SON, YOU COULD HEAR THE SHEER TERROR AND CONCERN THAT HE HAS FOR HIS SON.

AND THAT JUST SENT CHILLS TO ME WITH THAT. AND YOU SAW ME MY HEAD WHEN AVERY WAS SPEAKING ABOUT THE POLITICALIZATION ASPECT OF IT, WHICH I FOUND REALLY INTERESTING, THAT VICE PRESIDENT HARRIS WAS SPEAKING TODAY IN BILATERAL MEETINGS AND U.K. WITH THE PRIME MINISTER REALLY DISCUSSING THE STATEMENT THAT SHE MADE WAS

THAT WE MUST NOT CONFLATE THE PALESTINIAN PEOPLE WITH HAMAS AND TO ENSURE THAT ISLAMOPHOBIA IS ON THE RISE JUST AS MUCH AS ANTI-SEMITISM IS ON THE RISE. AND I CAN’T. BUT REMINDER, WHAT GEORGE BUSH SAID AFTER 911 IS THAT WE’RE NOT AT WAR AGAINST THE MUSLIM PEOPLE OR A RELIGION, BUT THOSE

WHO SEEK TO DO HARM AND HATE. AND I THINK THAT HAS TO UNDERSCORE SOMETHING TODAY, THIS EVENING IS REALLY SITTING WITH ME, AS WE DISCUSSED THIS. >> RIGHT. KEEP THE FOCUS THERE. MIKE, NICK, AVERY, LOUIS, THANK YOU ALL. WE APPRECIATE YOUR TIME. COMING UP NEXT HERE, THE NEW HOUSE SPEAKER, MIKE JOHNSON.

>> HE WON THE GAVEL, AS YOU KNOW. BUT CAN HE LEAD A DIVIDED CONGRESS WITH ISSUES LIKE AID TO ISRAEL, A LOOMING GOVERNMENT SHUTDOWN? WE’LL TALK ABOUT THAT NEXT. IN OUR SPOTLIGHT WHENEVER NEWS BREAKS. >> THE CRUSH OF FAMILIES HERE IN POLAND HERE IN KENTUCKY, NO MATCH FOR THE TORNADO.

THERE’S BEEN SOME HUMAN REMAINS FOUND AT THE BOTTOM OF NORTH HEAD AND THE BODY WAS NAKED, COMMITTING NAKED IS ALMOST UNHEARD OF. WHAT’S GOING ON HERE? AND THAT’S SOME CHILLING EVIDENCE. OH, MY GOODNESS. NO ONE KNEW IT WAS COMING. IT’S ABOUT FINDING JUSTICE FOR ,MY BROTHER.

SOMETIMES YOU JUST HAVE TO STIR THE POT. ALL RIGHT, HERE WE GO. READY? LET’S DO IT. YES, IT’S THE SHOW AMERICA WANTS AND AMERICA NEEDS RIGHT NOW. >> THIS IS WHAT YOU DO NOW. >> HEY, GIRL. HOW ARE YOU? I LIKE YOU. YEAH. SO, WHAT WILL YOU BE WATCHING?

SATURDAYS ON ABC NEWS LIVE. WHAT WOULD YOU DO? >> I GUESS I JUST FOUND OUT. WHAT WOULD YOU DO? MARATHON. 2 TO 6 EASTERN EVERY SATURDAY ON ABC LIVE. >> MY FAVORITE SHOW WHEN I GOT SENT TO IDAHO TO COVER THE MURDERS OF FOUR COLLEGE STUDENTS.

>> IT WAS A STORY THAT. DIDN’T MAKE ANY SENSE. FOUR STUDENTS STABBED TO DEATH IN THEIR BEDS. TWO ROOMMATES WERE HOME. YOU GOT TO THINK TO YOURSELF, OKAY, WHO’S THE TARGET AND HOW MANY PEOPLE WERE A MAN GOING THROUGH TO GET TO HIS TARGET? I’M KAYNA WHITWORTH WITH ABC NEWS.

THIS IS THE STORY OF SAVAGE MURDERS, A DETERMINED SMALL TOWN POLICE FORCE AND A SCHOLAR OF CRIME. THIS IS THE KING ROAD KILLINGS. THE FULL SERIES IS OUT NOW WITH TO EVERY WHEREVER YOU GET YOUR PODCASTS. WELCOME BACK. IN OUR SPOTLIGHT, THE HOUSE GETTING BACK TO BUSINESS WITH A

BRAND NEW SPEAKER. AFTER WEEKS OF CHAOS, THE HILL LAWMAKERS COULD VOTE AS SOON AS TONIGHT ON A RESOLUTION TO GOP CONGRESSMAN JORGE SANTOS, WHO’S PLEADED NOT GUILTY TO 23 FEDERAL CHARGES, INCLUDING FRAUD AND ALLEGED CAMPAIGN VIOLATIONS. IN THE MEANTIME, NEW REPUBLICAN HOUSE SPEAKER MIKE JOHNSON IS FORCING A SHOWDOWN SHOWDOWN

OVER EMERGENCY AID TO ISRAEL, PUSHING A $14 BILLION PACKAGE THAT DOES NOT INCLUDE AID TO UKRAINE AND ALSO FAR LESS THAN THE $106 BILLION PROPOSAL FROM PRESIDENT BIDEN, WHICH DOES INCLUDE AID FOR UKRAINE AND ALSO HAS SUPPORT FROM HOUSE DEMOCRATS, SENATE DEMOCRATS AND SENATE REPUBLICANS. SO I WANT TO BRING BACK OUR

PANEL HERE, MIKE MUSE, AVERI HARPER, AND JOINING US FOR THIS ONE IS JAY O’BRIEN THERE ON CAPITOL. JAY, THANKS FOR BEING WITH US. AND WE’LL START HERE WITH YOU. WHAT IS THE LATEST THERE, DO YOU THINK WE’LL ACTUALLY SEE THIS VOTE TONIGHT TO EXPEL SANTOS? >> AND WHAT ABOUT THE SPEAKER’S

PROPOSAL HERE, HERE FOR ADDITIONAL FUNDING TO ISRAEL WITHOUT THE AID FOR UKRAINE? LET’S START WITH SANTOS ON ONE, JAY. YEAH, WE’RE ON TRACK FOR AN EXPULSION VOTE TONIGHT FOR SANTOS. JUST WRAPPED UP THE DEBATE ON THE HOUSE FLOOR ABOUT WHETHER OR NOT HE SHOULD BE EXPELLED. AND SANTOS EVEN SAID HIS PIECE

THERE, HE ACCUSED HIS COLLEAGUES ACTING AS, QUOTE, JUDGE, JURY AND EXECUTIONER FOR HIM. ON THE FLIP, NEW YORK REPUBLICANS, THOSE IN SANTOS, HIS OWN PARTY AND HIS OWN STATE WHO BROUGHT FORWARD THIS RESOLUTION SAID THAT EVERY TIME THEY TO DO THE WORK OF THEIR CONSTITUENTS, QUOTE, THEY’RE JUST SIDETRACKED

BY STORY ABOUT GEORGE SANTOS. SO, AGAIN, WE’RE ON TRACK FOR THAT VOTE TONIGHT. SHOULD BE IN A FEW HOURS FROM NOW. BUT YOU’VE GOT TO GET TWO THIRDS OF THE HOUSE TO AGREE TO KICK SANTOS OUT. AND THAT’S A TALL ORDER. NOW ON THAT, UKRAINE AND ISRAEL FUNDING HARD CORE, HARD LINE

REPUBLICANS SAID THEY DON’T WANT TO LINK FUNDING FOR ISRAEL TO FUNDING FOR UKRAINE. THE SPEAKER FORWARD HIS OWN PLAN THAT DIDN’T LINK THE TWO, AS YOU SAID, AND ARE STEEP CUTS TO THE IRS. BUT THERE’S A LOT OF PUSHBACK BECAUSE A NEW REPORT OUT TODAY FROM, A NONPARTISAN CONGRESSIONAL BUDGET OFFICE,

SAID IT ACTUALLY ADDS $12 BILLION TO THE DEFICIT RATHER THAN TRIES TO OFFSET ANY KIND MONEY THAT WOULD GO TO ISRAEL BY CUTTING MONEY OUT OF THE IRS, WHICH PUTS THE SPEAKER IN A TOUGH POSITION AND POTENTIALLY TEES UP A FIGHT BETWEEN THE HOUSE AND THE SENATE. >> CERTAINLY DOES.

THERE AN AVERAGE YOU AS JAY JUST MENTIONED HERE, TWO THIRDS VOTE WHEN IT COMES TO THIS CAN BE A REALLY RARE MOVE IF WE SEE IT GO THROUGH. DO YOU THAT LAWMAKERS CAN ACTUALLY PUSH TO THROW HIM OUT? DO YOU THINK THEY’LL BE? >> I MEAN, IT’S A REALLY HIGH

BAR, BUT REGARDLESS OF WHAT HAPPENS IN THE VOTE TONIGHT, WE KNOW THAT THERE ARE ELECTIONS COMING UP AND THERE ARE CANDIDATES ON BOTH SIDES OF THE AISLE WHO ARE LINING UP TO TRY AND TAKE GEORGE SANTOS’S SEAT. HIS SEAT WAS ONE THAT FLIPPED RED. IT WAS HELD BY A DEMOCRAT PRIOR TO THAT.

AND SO THERE’S DEMOCRATS THAT TRYING THEIR DARNDEST TO GET THAT SEAT BACK. AND THE GOP IN NEW YORK IS TRYING TO PUT UP A VIABLE CANDIDATE WHO CAN KEEP THAT SEAT RED THAT SEAT. AND MANY OF THOSE GOP SEATS IN NEW YORK WERE CRITICAL TO THE GOP HAVING ITS MAJORITY IN THE HOUSE.

>> AND LET’S TALK ABOUT FUNDING FOR ISRAEL HERE. SO I WANT TO POINT OUT THAT THE DEFENSE SECRETARY, LLOYD AUSTIN, SAID YESTERDAY, QUOTING HIM, HARRY SAID, CAN GUARANTEE YOU THAT WITHOUT OUR SUPPORT, PUTIN WILL BE SUCCESSFUL. SO OF COURSE, HE’S TALKING ABOUT IN TERMS OF FUNDING FOR AS WELL.

AND HE WENT ON TO SAY THAT, YOU KNOW, ESSENTIALLY THE U.S. PAY MORE DEARLY IN THE FUTURE IF RUSSIA IS ALLOWED TO SUCCEED IN UKRAINE. WHAT’S YOUR TAKE ON POTENTIALLY GETTING A BILL THROUGH THAT DOESN’T INCLUDE AID THEM? I THINK THAT’S A BAD IDEA. I THINK PHILOSOPHICALLY IT

MAKES SENSE TO HAVE A BILL THAT INCLUDES UKRAINE, ISRAEL AND TAIWAN, ALL DEMOCRACIES OUR LONG TIME SECURITY PARTNERS, THE UNITED STATES. SO PHILOSOPHICALLY IT DOES MAKE SENSE. ON UKRAINE, IT’S IMPORTANT TO NOTE THAT WE HAD A UNANIMOUS SO I DON’T GET INTO POLITICS, BUT WE HAD NEAR UNANIMOUS SUPPORT FOR THAT AT

THE BEGINNING. THEY’RE FIGHTING OUR SECOND MOST SIGNIFICANT ADVERSARY. WE PUSHED THEM TO DO A COUNTER OFFENSIVE. IF WE DON’T FIND IT NOW, NOT ONLY IS THAT NO WAY TO TREAT A PARTNER, BUT EVERYBODY’S GOING TO NOTICE THAT BOTH OUR FRIENDS AND OUR FOES, THE UNITED STATES WILL LOSE SIGNIFICANT CREDIBILITY

WILL ESSENTIALLY LEFT A FRIEND IN A FIGHT THAT WE ASK THEM TO DO. THE KIND OF. >> YEAH, AND MAKE IT. THAT’S REALLY PART OF WHAT LLOYD AUSTIN KIND OF WENT ON TO SAY. HE SAID IF PUTIN’S SUCCESSFUL, HE WILL NOT STOP AT UKRAINE. AND IF YOU’RE A BALTIC STATE

YOU’RE WONDERING IF I’M AND NEXT A TERRIFYING REALITY THERE AND MIKE TO YOU LOOK THIS WEEKSLONG CHAOS THAT WE SAW ON THE HILL MEAN IT’S OVER AT LEAST FOR NOW. RIGHT. BUT WE KNOW THERE’S ALSO ANOTHER SHUTDOWN DEADLINE. >> IT’S JUST A FEW WEEKS AWAY. SO WHAT IS WHAT ARE

AMERICAN PEOPLE LOOKING AT FROM THE HOUSE AND THE LAWMAKERS AS THEY’RE STARTING TO GET BACK TO WORK HERE? >> WHAT ARE THEY SAYING? THEY WANT GOVERNANCE TO BE DONE WITHIN THE HOUSE. BUT AS JAKE WAS REPORTING I DON’T KNOW IF WE’RE GOING TO SEE MUCH GOVERNMENT AS GETS DONE BECAUSE WHAT SPEAKER

JOHNSON HAS SIGNALED TODAY WITH HIS COUNTERPROPOSAL, EMERGENCY AID FUNDING, IS THAT THIS IS NOW ABOUT IDEOLOGY. SO IDEOLOGY SEEMS TO COME BEFORE EVEN NATIONAL SECURITY AND GOING, GETS PRECEDENT ABOUT HOW EMERGENCY AID IS ACTUALLY ALLOCATED WITHOUT HAVING SPENDING CUTS ATTACHED TO IT. AND SO I THINK THAT WE’RE GOING

TO BE IN FOR A VERY COMPLICATED SPEAKERSHIP WITH JOHNSON IN TERMS OF IDEOLOGY GET IN THE WAY OF GOVERNANCE, WHICH ALSO IS GOING TO THE AMERICAN PUBLIC AND THE VOTER, TO WHICH AVERY WAS MENTIONING WITH ELECTIONS COMING UP SOON AROUND THE CORNER. >> AND JANE, WHAT’S YOUR RESPONSE TO THAT?

I KNOW WE SAW A LOT OF DEMOCRATS SAYING, YOU KNOW, WE’VE NEVER SEEN SOMETHING THIS ,BUT IT WAS IT’S LIKE A FOR TAT. >> YEAH. DO I GET TO TALK? MIKE INVOKED MY NAME RIGHT. LIKE THE RULES OF THE DEBATE. >> YEAH. BUT ANYWAY, SO IT’S INTERESTING BECAUSE THE PLAYBOOK

THAT YOU’RE SEEING FROM SPEAKER JOHNSON IS SOMEWHAT WHAT YOU SAW FROM SPEAKER MCCARTHY, WHICH IS TAKE SOMETHING THAT THE SENATE HAS BIPARTISAN AGREEMENT ON, PARTICULARLY WHEN IT COMES TO UKRAINE FUNDING. AND INSTEAD OF DOING THAT AND MCCARTHY DID THIS WITH THE GOVERNMENT SHUTDOWN FOR A WHILE AS WELL DO YOUR OWN

CONSERVATIVE BILL THAT HAS YOUR OWN CONSERVATIVE PRIORITIES IN IT AND A BILL THAT FRANKLY WOULD NOT PASS IN A DEMOCRAT CONTROLLED SENATE AND FRANKLY, A BILL THAT EVEN SOME SENATE REPUBLICANS LIKE MITCH MCCONNELL, THE TOP REPUBLICAN IN THAT CHAMBER, WOULD OPPOSE. AND SO THE REALITY HERE IS IT

SETS UP JOHNSON FOR NOT JUST A FIGHT WITH THE MODERATES IN HIS OWN, BUT ALSO WITH SENATE REPUBLICANS AS WELL AS, OF COURSE, SENATE DEMOCRATS AND, OF COURSE, THE WHITE HOUSE HERE, TOO. AND IT’S A FIGHT, FRANKLY, THAT WILL DEFINE AT LEAST THE FIRST MONTH OR SO OF HIS

TENURE UP UNTIL WE HEAD TOWARD THAT DEADLINE OF A GOVERNMENT SHUTDOWN, WHICH IS ANOTHER THING THAT WILL DEFINE HIS SPEAKERSHIP. >> ALL RIGHT. WE’LL SEE HOW IT GOES. JAY, I KNOW BE WATCHING THAT FOR US AND OUR THANKS TO YOU AS WELL, AVERY, MICK AND MICK.

>> COMING UP NEXT HERE IN OUR LAST CALL, WHICH MEGASTAR MUSICIAN AND SELF-PROCLAIMED LOVER OF ALL THINGS CHRISTMAS IS OFF THE HOLIDAY FOR US. HEY, CAN YOU GUESS WHO IT IS? THAT’S OUR LAST. WHEN WE COME BACK. >> THIS IS ABC NEWS LIVE. >> THE CLUSTER OF FAMILIES HERE ,POLAND AT REFUGEE CENTERS

THE IDF REPORTING THAT IT TARGETED HAMAS TERRORISTS AT THE CAMP ACCUSING THE TERROR GROUP OF DELIBERATELY BUILDING INFRASTRUCTURE AROUND AND WITHIN CIVILIAN AREAS. WE’LL TALK ABOUT WHAT WE’RE LEARNING AT THIS HOUR. PLUS, THE NEW PROGRESS IN THE

PUSH TO ALLOW AMERICANS THROUGH THAT KEY BORDER CROSSING WITH EGYPT. ALSO, THE FED MAKING ANOTHER KEY INTEREST RATE DECISION, HOW IT COULD IMPACT THE ECONOMY AS FAMILIES FACE THESE HIGH MORTGAGE AND CREDIT CARD RATES. ALSO THERE IS NEW BODY CAMERA VIDEO RELEASED IN THE ALLEGED INTENTIONAL HIT AND RUN

THAT KILLED A FORMER POLICE CHIEF. THE MOMENTS THAT HIS FAMILY AND POLICE ARRIVE THAT SCENE. >> BUT WE BEGIN HERE WITH ISRAEL CONFIRMING YET AGAIN A SECOND STRIKE HERE TARGETING THAT DENSELY POPULATED REFUGEE CAMP IN GAZA. THE IDF REPORTING THAT ITS FIGHTER JETS TARGETED A HAMAS AND CONTROL COMPLEX AT THE SITE

OF THIS REFUGEE CAMP. MILITANTS WITH THE GROUP NOW THE HAMAS RUN HEALTH AGENCY IN GAZA, REPORTING, QUOTE, THIS IS WHAT THEY SAID. TENS PEOPLE WERE INJURED AND KILLED. ISRAELI OFFICIALS AGAIN NOW ACCUSING HAMAS OF USING CIVILIANS AS HUMAN SHIELDS, SAYING THAT THEY HAD BEEN URGING PEOPLE TO EVACUATE THAT AREA.

THIS CAMP IS IN NORTHERN GAZA AND. THIS IS COMING JUST ONE DAY AFTER THE IDF SAID IT STRUCK THAT SAME CAMP KILLING ONE OF THE LEADERS BEHIND THE INITIAL DEADLY OCTOBER SEVEN TERROR ATTACK IN ISRAEL. NOW, IN THE MEANTIME, FOR THE FIRST TIME IN MORE THAN THREE WEEKS SINCE THE CONFLICT

BEGAN, PALESTINIAN OFFICIALS ARE REPORTING THAT HUNDREDS OF FOREIGN PASSPORT HOLDERS HAVE BEEN ALLOWED THROUGH THAT CRITICAL RAFAH BORDER CROSSING FROM INTO EGYPT. THEY ALSO SAY THAT 76 GAZAN PATIENTS, SOME OF THEM BADLY WOUNDED CROSSED INTO EGYPT AND THAT DOZENS MORE AID TRUCKS WERE ALLOWED THROUGH THE OTHER DIRECTION INTO GAZA. PRESIDENT BIDEN SPEAKING

ABOUT THE RAFAH CROSSING JUST A SHORT TIME AGO. >> WE’RE IN A SITUATION WHERE SAFE PASSAGE FOR WOUNDED PALESTINIANS AND FOREIGN NATIONALS TO EXIT. GAZA HAS STARTED. AMERICAN CITIZENS ARE ABLE TO EXIT TODAY AS PART OF THE FIRST GROUP OF PROBABLY OVER A THOUSAND. WE’LL SEE MORE OF THIS PROCESS

GOING ON IN THE COMING DAYS. >> WE’LL ALSO NEW THIS HOUR, THE IDF NOW CLAIMING TO HAVE BROKEN THROUGH THE FRONT LINE OF HAMAS IN THE NORTHERN GAZA STRIP. ABC NEWS CHIEF FOREIGN CORRESPONDENT INES DE LA CUETARA HAS THE LATEST FROM JERUSALEM. >> PEOPLE IN GAZA WERE STILL REELING AFTER TUESDAY’S

ISRAELI AIRSTRIKE ON GAZA’S LARGEST REFUGEE CAMP WHEN BOMBS HIT AGAIN TODAY. >> HUGE PLUMES OF SMOKE SEEN BILLOWING OVER THE JABALYA CAMP WITH RESCUERS USING ALL MEANS TO GET THE INJURED TO THE HOSPITAL. >> MEDICS AND CIVILIANS SEARCHING THE RUBBLE FOR SURVIVORS. ISRAEL’S DEFENSE FORCES SAYING A SENIOR HAMAS COMMANDER WAS

IN THAT AREA. THE DEATH TOLL IN, GAZA NOW MORE THAN 8700, ACCORDING TO THE HAMAS RUN HEALTH MINISTRY. THE ISRAELI MILITARY RELEASED A VIDEO SHOWING LINES OF TANKS ,MILITARY CANINES AND MORE SOLDIERS PREPARING TO ENTER GAZA. A COMMANDING OFFICER DELIVERING AN ENCOURAGING SPEECH OVER RADIO TELLING TROOPS IN HEBREW.

I WISH YOU GOOD LUCK. I TRUST YOU. YOU HAVE PERMISSION CROSS THE BORDER. THE ISRAELI MILITARY ANNOUNCING MORE THAN A DOZEN SOLDIERS HAVE NOW BEEN KILLED IN ACTION. THE HAMAS RUN PALESTINIAN BORDER AUTHORITY IS ALSO LETTING OVER 300 FOREIGN PASSPORT HOLDERS LEAVE GAZA, INCLUDING AT FIVE AMERICAN AID WORKERS.

HUNDREDS GATHERED AT THE CROSSING. NO ONE HAD BEEN ALLOWED OUT UNTIL TODAY DUE TO DISAGREEMENTS AMONG. EGYPT AND HAMAS. >> WE HEARD YESTERDAY THAT THE BORDERS WILL BE OPENING SEVEN A. SO WE CAME HERE HOPING TO LEAVE AND AMBULANCES CARRYING INJURED PALESTINIANS ALSO ENTERING EGYPT, THE RAFAH BORDER CROSSING.

>> PALESTINIAN RED CRESCENT SAYS MORE THAN 80 SERIOUSLY WOUNDED PEOPLE ALLOWED TO LEAVE GAZA FOR MEDICAL TREATMENT. >> YOU’RE WELCOME. ANY MOVE, ANY CONCRETE MEASURE TO ALLEVIATE SUFFERING AND LIMITED EVACUATIONS COME MORE THAN THREE WEEKS INTO A TOTAL BLOCKADE OF GAZA BY ISRAEL. AND MORE AID TRUCKS WENT

THE OTHER WAY AT THE CROSSING GAZA CARRYING MUCH NEEDED FOOD, WATER AND MEDICINE. >> ALL RIGHT. INES IS JOINING US NOW. AND THANK YOU FOR BEING WITH US. AND WHAT MORE ARE ISRAELI OFFICIALS SAYING ABOUT HOW HAMAS WAS THE TARGET OF THIS NEW STRIKE, KNOWING THIS WAS A DENSELY POPULATED CIVILIAN AREA?

AND AS I KNOW THAT THE IDF HAVE ENCOURAGED PEOPLE TO TRY TO EVACUATE THAT AREA. >> IT’S IN NORTHERN GAZA RIGHT? THAT’S RIGHT. YES. THE IDF CONFIRMING THIS EVENING THAT THEY ARE BEHIND THIS SECOND STRIKE ON THE JABALYA REFUGEE CAMP. INTERESTINGLY, THEY MADE PUBLIC MENTION OF THAT SECOND STRIKE FOR SEVERAL HOURS.

AND IN FACT, JUST CONFIRMED IT TO ABC NEWS IN A RESPONSE TO A QUESTION THAT WE HAD ASKED THEM. SO I’LL READ YOU THE STATEMENT THEY SAID EARLIER. BASED ON PRECISE INTELLIGENCE, IDF FIGHTER JETS STRUCK A HAMAS AND CONTROL COMPLEX IN JABALYA. WE CAN CONFIRM THAT HAMAS TERRORISTS WERE ELIMINATED

IN THE STRIKE. THEY MAKE VIRTUALLY NO MENTION OF CIVILIAN CASUALTIES AND LIKE YOU SAY, JUST REITERATE THEIR CALLS FOR CIVILIANS TO HEAD SOUTH TO LEAVE NORTHERN GAZA. AND IT’S SIMILAR TO THE STATEMENT WE GOT FROM THEM YESTERDAY DURING OR AFTER THAT. THAT FIRST MASSIVE STRIKE ON THIS REFUGEE CAMP WHEN

THE IDF AGAIN SAID THEY WERE TARGETING TERRORISTS IN THE REFUGEE CAMP THAT HAVE BEEN, THEY SAY, IN A VAST NETWORK OF TUNNELS BENEATH THIS REFUGEE CAMP. AND AGAIN, IN THAT STATEMENT, THEY DIDN’T MAKE ANY MENTION OF THE CIVILIAN CASUALTIES. WE UNDERSTAND THAT IN FIRST STRIKE, AT LEAST 52 PEOPLE WERE

KILLED, ACCORDING TO THE HAMAS RUN MINISTRY. STILL NO WORD YET ON THE DEATH TOLL FOR THIS SECOND STRIKE, BUT THIS IS THE SECOND STRIKE ON THAT REFUGEE CAMP IN LESS THAN 24 HOURS KATE. >> NOW, ALSO IN AS THE FIRST AMERICANS, ALONG WITH SOME OTHER FOREIGN NATIONALS, WERE ABLE TO LEAVE THROUGH

THAT CROSSING INTO EGYPT TODAY. PRESIDENT BIDEN SAYING THAT MORE WILL FOLLOW. >> WHAT’S THE LATEST THERE? YES, SOME REALLY GOOD NEWS THERE. THE FACT THAT THE RAFAH BORDER CROSSING HAS REOPENED TO PEOPLE. SO THIS IS THE FIRST TIME THAT PEOPLE HAVE BEEN ABLE TO LEAVE GAZA SINCE OCTOBER SEVEN.

WE KNOW THAT PRIORITY IS BEING GIVEN THE CRITICALLY INJURED. SO AT LEAST 76 CRITICALLY INJURED PALESTINIAN. INS WERE TRANSFERRED OUT OF GAZA THROUGH RAFAH INTO EGYPT. THERE WERE AMBULANCES WAITING FOR THEM. ON THE OTHER SIDE. WE KNOW THAT FIELD HOSPITALS ARE ALSO BEING SET UP ON THE OTHER SIDE IN EGYPT

AND FOREIGN NATIONALS AS WELL ARE BEING ALLOWED TO CROSS. AT LEAST 335 FOREIGN NATIONALS WERE ALLOWED TO CROSS TODAY. FIVE AMERICAN NGO WORKERS. NO WORD ON REMAINING AMERICANS WHO ARE IN GAZA, ACCORDING TO THE U.S. STATE DEPARTMENT. THERE, ROUGHLY 400 AMERICANS STILL IN GAZA. AND TOGETHER WITH FAMILIES,

THAT’S ABOUT 1000 PEOPLE THAT THE STATE DEPARTMENT IS TRYING TO OUT OF GAZA. NO WORD ON WHEN THOSE EVACUATIONS MIGHT TAKE PLACE. >> ALL RIGHT. THANK YOU SO MUCH. WE APPRECIATE. ALSO NOW TO THE HOUSE TO GETTING BACK TO BUSINESS WITH A BRAND NEW SPEAKER AFTER WEEKS

OF CHAOS ON THE HILL. LAWMAKERS COULD VOTE AS SOON AS TONIGHT ON A RESOLUTION TO EXPEL GOP CONGRESSMAN GEORGE SANTOS, WHO HAS PLEADED NOT GUILTY TO 23 FEDERAL CHARGES. AND THAT INCLUDES FRAUD AND ALLEGED FINANCE VIOLATIONS. IN THE MEANTIME, A NEW REPUBLICAN HOUSE SPEAKER, MIKE JOHNSON, IS FORCING A SHOWDOWN OVER EMERGENCY AID

TO PUSHING A $14 BILLION PACKAGE THAT DOES NOT INCLUDE AID TO UKRAINE AND IS ALSO FAR LESS THAN THE $106 BILLION PROPOSAL FROM BIDEN, WHICH DOES INCLUDE AID FOR UKRAINE AND ALSO IT HAS SUPPORT FROM HOUSE DEMOCRATS, SENATE DEMOCRATS AND SENATE REPUBLICANS. I WANT TO BRING IN ABC NEWS

CORRESPONDENT JAY O’BRIEN WHO’S LIVE ON CAPITOL HILL FOR US. JAY, THANKS FOR COMING BACK. WHAT IS THE LATEST ON THIS VOTE, DO YOU THINK THAT THEY’LL VOTE TONIGHT AND SUCCESSFULLY EXPEL SANTOS YEAH, IT’S ON TRACK FOR TONIGHT. CAN OF THE DEBATE OVER IT JUST ENDED SANTOS ACTUALLY STANDING IN THE HOUSE CHAMBER

AND LISTENING TO CRITICISM, FELLOW REPUBLICANS AND RESPONDING THERE IN THAT DEBATE. BUT IT’S A HIGH THRESHOLD TO KICK GEORGE SANTOS OUT OF THE HOUSE. YOU NEED TWO THIRDS OF THE HOUSE VOTING TO EXPEL HIM. AND THAT’S A TALL ORDER. THE LAST TIME THAT WAS DONE WAS 2002. BUT THE PEOPLE BRINGING

RESOLUTION TO EXPEL SANTOS ARE HIS OWN REPUBLICANS FROM NEW YORK. >> AND HERE’S WHAT ONE TOLD ME WHEN I ASKED WHY SANTOS NEEDS TO GO, GEORGE SANTOS SHOULD HAVE RESIGNED. GEORGE SANTOS SHOULD BE EXPELLED. HE HE ABOUT EVERY ASPECT OF WHO HE IS. ARE YOU WORRIED ABOUT THE SIGNAL?

YOUR PARTY IS SENDING IF THEY DON’T VOTE TO EXPOSE WHAT’S IN, EVERYBODY’S GOT TO MAKE THIS CHOICE. THIS DECISION BASED ON WHAT THEY THINK IS APPROPRIATE. >> SO, MARC MOLINARO, THERE SANTOS, ON THE OTHER HAND, IN THAT DEBATE ON THE HOUSE FLOOR SAYING THAT HIS REPUBLICAN COLLEAGUES ARE ACTING AS JUDGE, JURY

AND EXECUTIONER AND THAT KICKING HIM OUT WOULD SET A DANGEROUS PRECEDENT. CAN. >> ALL RIGHT, JAY AND JAY, UPDATE US ON THIS SHOWDOWN OVER U.S. AID TO ISRAEL. >> YEAH. SPEAKER JOHNSON NOW PROPOSING OWN PLAN, NOT THE ONE THAT THE WHITE HOUSE ASKED FOR, AS YOU SAID, NOT THE ONE THAT SENATE

REPUBLICANS AND DEMOCRATS ARE BEHIND. AND IN ADDITION TO EVERYTHING YOU OUTLINED EARLIER, IT ALSO HAS SIGNIFICANT CUTS TO THE IRS . JOHNSON USED AS A WAY TO APPEAL TO HARD LINE CONSERVATIVES, SAYING THAT THE PLAN WOULD PAY FOR ITSELF WITH CUTS FROM THE IRS. BUT HERE’S THE THING. A CBO, A NONPARTISAN

CONGRESSIONAL BUDGET OFFICE REPORT TODAY FOUND THAT IT WOULD ACTUALLY ADD $12 BILLION TO THE FEDERAL DEFICIT AND NOT PAY FOR ITSELF IN THE WAY THAT SOME REPUBLICANS HAD CLAIMED. JOHNSON MEANTIME, SAYING THAT HE WASN’T SURPRISED BY THAT REPORT, THAT THE REPUBLICANS ARE GOING TO STICK TO THEIR CONSERVATIVE PLAN,

WHICH WOULD LIKELY BE DEAD ON ARRIVAL IN A DEMOCRAT CONTROLLED SENATE AND CERTAINLY OPPOSED BY THE WHITE HOUSE. THE PRESIDENT SAYING THAT HE WOULD VETO THAT KATE. >> ALL RIGHT, JAY. AND THEN THERE’S OF COURSE, THERE’S ANOTHER POTENTIAL SHUTDOWN LOOMING JUST ABOUT TWO WEEKS AWAY. >> RIGHT.

SO ARE THEY GOING TO BE ABLE TO KEEP THE GOVERNMENT OPEN? WELL, THAT’S CERTAINLY THE STATED OF SPEAKER JOHNSON. HE’S GOT THIS AMBITIOUS PLAN TO PASS NUMBER OF SPENDING BILLS TO TRY TO KEEP AS MUCH OF THE GOVERNMENT FUNDED THROUGH THOSE SPENDING BILLS THAT WOULD NORMALLY FUND THE GOVERNMENT AS POSSIBLE

BY THAT NOVEMBER 17TH DEADLINE. BUT EVEN JOHNSON HAS ACKNOWLEDGED THEY WOULD LIKELY NEED TO BE SOME KIND OF TEMPORARY FUNDING MEASURE TO KEEP THE GOVERNMENT RUNNING WHILE THE REST OF THOSE SPENDING BILLS PASSED. >> IT’S THE SAME KIND OF TEMPORARY FUNDING MEASURE BY THE BY THAT SPEAKER MCCARTHY PASSED HARD LINE CONSERVATIVES

BALKED AT AND LED IN PART TO MCCARTHY’S. BUT WE’VE HEARD FROM THOSE SAME REPUBLICANS, THOSE HARD LINE CONSERVATIVES THAT MOVED TO OUST MCCARTHY, THE EIGHT OF THEM WHO SAID THEY’RE WILLING TO CUT SPEAKER JOHNSON MORE SLACK THAN THEY CUT. KEVIN MCCARTHY CAN. >> OH, INTERESTING. JAY AND ALSO, JAY,

WHAT ABOUT REPUBLICAN CONGRESSMAN BUCK? HE’S ANNOUNCED ESSENTIALLY THAT HE IS RETIRING. HE HAD PRETTY FIERY LANGUAGE TO SHARE TODAY, JAY. >> YEAH, KEN WAS ONE OF THOSE EIGHT REPUBLICANS, REMEMBER, THAT MOVED TO OUST KEVIN. BUT HE WAS ALSO ONE OF THE REPUBLICANS THAT DID NOT VOTE TO, DECERTIFY THE RESULTS

OF THE 2020 ELECTION AND HE OPPOSED JIM JORDAN’S BID FOR SPEAKER BECAUSE JIM JORDAN DID NOT ACCEPT RESULTS OF THE 2020 ELECTION, ALTHOUGH KEN BUCK THEN VOTED FOR SPEAKER JOHNSON, WHO OBVIOUSLY WAS INTEGRAL TO FORMER PRESIDENT EFFORTS TO TRY TO OVERTURN THE RESULTS OF THE 2020 ELECTION. NONETHELESS, HE WAS ONE OF

WHAT YOU CONSIDER MORE MODERATE REPUBLICAN VOICES IN THE HOUSE REPUBLICAN GROUP, ALTHOUGH HE DID SOME HARDLINE CONSERVATIVE STANCES AS WELL. >> HE ALSO OPPOSED, FOR INSTANCE, CONGRESSIONAL TRADING AND PARTNERED WITH DEMOCRATS ON ASPECTS LIKE THAT. SO THERE ARE MODERATE DEMOCRATS SAYING TONIGHT THAT THEY WILL MISS KEN BUCK AS HE AGAIN

SAYS HE’S NOT GOING TO RUN FOR REELECTION. >> ALL RIGHT, JAY REPORTING. CAPITOL HILL, THANK YOU, AS ALWAYS. AND NOW TO THE DAY’S ECONOMIC. THE FEDERAL RESERVE NOT RAISING INTEREST RATES. THE FED ANNOUNCING ITS DECISION TODAY, A MOVE THAT IS BEING CLOSELY WATCHED IN D.C.,

THEN FROM WALL STREET TO MAIN STREET. YOU KNOW, EARLIER TODAY, PRESIDENT BIDEN ACTUALLY SPOKE ABOUT THE HEALTH OF THE ECONOMY. >> A YEAR AGO, EXPERTS SAID A RECESSION WAS ALMOST GUARANTEED. REMEMBER MONTHS AGO, A RECESSION IS COMING, RECESSION IS COMING. WELL, GUESS WHAT? JUST LAST WEEK WE LEARNED

THE ECONOMY GREW BY NEARLY 5%. THE LAST QUARTER. SO THE EXPERTS. >> MEANWHILE, THOUGH, THE FIRST MONTH OF THESE STUDENT LOAN REPAYMENTS SINCE THE END OF A THREE YEAR PANDEMIC PAUSE ON FEDERAL STUDENT LOANS HAS BEEN FILLED WITH ERRORS. THE DEPARTMENT OF EDUCATION SAYS THAT THOUSANDS OF BORROWERS FACED INCORRECT

BILLING AMOUNTS OR LATE NOTICES FOR BILLS DUE MORE THAN 2 MILLION BORROWERS ACTUALLY NEVER EVEN RECEIVED A TIMELY NOTICE AT ALL. ABC NEWS CORRESPONDENT ELIZABETH SCHULZE HAS MORE FROM WASHINGTON. >> HEY, ELIZABETH. HEY, CAN AND WILL FOR ITS SECOND MEETING IN A ROW, THE FEDERAL RESERVE IS TAKING A PAUSE TO TO UNDERSTAND

HOW ITS AGGRESSIVE INTEREST RATE HIKES ARE RIPPLING THE ECONOMY. THE FED HAS ALREADY HIKED INTEREST RATES 11 TIMES OVER THE PAST YEAR AND A HALF, AND THAT HAS MADE IT A LOT MORE EXPENSIVE TO BORROW MONEY. DURING THAT TIME, MORTGAGE RATES MORE THAN DOUBLED TO A 23 YEAR HIGH.

CREDIT CARD RATES A NEW RECORD HIGH. SO THE FED RIGHT NOW SAYS IT’S TRYING TO SLOW DOWN SPENDING IN THE ECONOMY IN ORDER TO TAME INFLATION. AND THERE ARE SIGNS THAT’S WORKING, BUT IT DOES NOT WANT TO DECLARE VICTORY QUITE YET. EVEN THOUGH IT DIDN’T HIKE INTEREST RATES TODAY, IT DID

LEAVE THE DOOR TO FURTHER INTEREST RATE HIKES, POSSIBLY AS SOON AS ITS MEETING DECEMBER . NOW, THERE ARE STILL OTHER RISKS TO THE ECONOMY THAT THE FED, A GOVERNMENT SHUTDOWN, GEOPOLITICAL RISKS AND CONSUMER SPENDING COULD STILL SLOW DOWN. ONE FACTOR AFFECTING CONSUMER SPENDING, THE RESTART OF FEDERAL STUDENT LOAN PAYMENTS.

THAT THREE YEAR PAUSE FROM THE FEDERAL GOVERNMENT ENDED LAST MONTH, AND ALREADY THERE HAVE BEEN PLENTY OF GLITCHES WHEN IT COMES TO GETTING THOSE PAYMENTS BACK ONLINE. THE EDUCATION DEPARTMENT SAYS THAT A LOAN SERVICER STRUGGLED IN SENDING PEOPLE THE WRONG BILLS. PEOPLE HAVE HAD A HARD TIME REACHING PEOPLE ON REACHING

LOAN SERVICERS ON THE PHONE. SO THE EDUCATION DEPARTMENT IS TAKING STEPS TO TRY TO PROVIDE A ONE YEAR GRACE PERIOD FOR BORROWERS AND MEANING IF THEY MISS A PAYMENT, THEY WILL NOT BE HELD DELINQUENT. BUT IMPORTANT TO KNOW IN HIGH INTEREST RATE WORLD THAT WE’RE LIVING IN. AND EVEN IF YOU DO MISS

A PAYMENT ON YOUR STUDENT LOANS IN THAT TIME, YOUR INTEREST WILL KEEP GOING UP. IMPORTANT TO LOOK AT YOUR BUDGET AS YOU’RE LOOKING FOR THE PAYMENTS IN THE MONTHS AHEAD. ALL RIGHT, ELIZABETH SCHULZE, OUR THANKS TO YOU, AS ALWAYS. >> AND COMING NEXT HERE, A FORMER CHIEF OF POLICE KILLED

IN A HIT AND RUN. FAMILY’S EMOTIONAL JOURNEY TO BRING JUSTICE FOR THE FALLEN AS NEW POLICE VIDEO CAMERA FOOTAGE WAS JUST RELEASED. WE’LL UPDATE YOU ON THAT STORY WHEN WE COME BACK. >> WHENEVER A NEWS BREAKS THE OF FAMILIES HERE IN POLAND HERE IN KENTUCKY. NO MATCH FOR THE TORNADO FROM

REPORTING FROM UVALDE, TEXAS ABC NEWS LIVE IS RIGHT THERE EVERYWHERE FROM THE SCENE OF THAT DEADLY MISSILE STRIKE INTO NEIGHBORING UKRAINE. >> REPORTING FROM THE EARTHQUAKE IN TURKEY. FROM CHARLESTON, SOUTH CAROLINA, ON THE 24 CAMPAIGN TRAIL FROM KATHMANDU, TRUCKEE, COVERING RECORD SNOWFALL.

>> TRAVELING WITH THE PRESIDENT IN MEXICO THIS MORNING HERE AT THIS AIRPORT IN TAMPA, IT’S ALREADY DOWN RECORDING WITH THE NURSES ON THE PICKET LINE, WALKING FROM JERUSALEM HERE AT 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. YOU’RE STREAMING ABC NEWS LIVE ABC NEWS LIVE, YOU’RE STREAMING ABC NEWS LIVE, ABC NEWS LIVE, STREAMING FREE EVERYWHERE. OUR AMERICA’S NUMBER ONE STREAMING NEWS. >> FOR 30 YEARS, MY BROTHER’S DEATH WAS THIS MYSTERY. WAS HE PUSHED? DID HE KILL HIMSELF?

THERE’S BEEN SOME HUMAN REMAINS FOUND AT THE BOTTOM OF NORTH HEAD AND THE BODY WAS NAKED COMMITTING SUICIDE. NAKED IS ALMOST UNHEARD OF. WHAT’S GOING ON HERE? AND THEY HAD SOME CHILLING EVIDENCE. OH, GOODNESS. NO ONE KNEW IT WAS COMING. AND IT’S ABOUT FINDING JUSTICE FOR MY BROTHER.

SOMETIMES YOU JUST HAVE TO STIR THE POT. ALL RIGHT, HERE WE GO. READY? LET’S DO IT. YES. IT’S THE SHOW AMERICA WANTS AND AMERICA NEEDS. RIGHT NOW. >> THIS IS. WHAT WOULD YOU DO NOW? I AM THIS GIRL. HOW ARE YOU? >> YEAH. SO WHAT? YOU BE WATCHING SATURDAYS

ON ABC NEWS LIVE? WHAT YOU DO? I GUESS I JUST FOUND OUT. WHAT WOULD YOU DO? MARATHON 2 TO 6 EASTERN EVERY SATURDAY ON ABC NEWS LIVE. >> MY FAVORITE NOW. >> AND BACK. POLICE IN LAS VEGAS HAVE RELEASED BODY CAMERA VIDEO THAT DEADLY HIT AND RUN INVOLVING A RETIRED POLICE

CHIEF FROM CALIFORNIA. ANDY PROBST WAS HIT AND KILLED WHILE ON AN EARLY MORNING BIKE RIDE. AND TWO TEENAGERS ARE BEING CHARGED WITH HIS MURDER. >> AUTHORITIES SAY THAT THEY RECORDED THE ENTIRE THING WHILE LAUGHING. NOW, BOTH HAVE PLEADED NOT GUILTY. >> IN AN EXCLUSIVE INTERVIEW,

WE SPOKE WITH A FAMILY WHO WAS AMONG THE FIRST TO ARRIVE ON THE SCENE BASED ON CONDITION. WE MIGHT HAVE SOME INVESTIGATIVE DETAILS HERE TO INVESTIGATE THE ACCIDENT. WE MIGHT HAVE TO LEAVE EVERYTHING AWAY AT THIS CALL. LIKE ALL I’M ALL I’M GETTING FROM HAPPY IS THAT IT’S JUST CRITICAL CONDITION RIGHT NOW.

THAT’S ALL. THAT’S ALL I HAVE TO. >> I’LL NEVER GET TO HAVE MY DAD THERE. HOW ABOUT, YOU KNOW, DADDY DAUGHTER DAY AND HAVE HIM GIVE ME AWAY OR ANYTHING LIKE THAT, AND THAT HURTS. IT’S HARD TO GRIEVE WHEN YOU HAVE ANGER. ALL RIGHT. BRIAN BUCKMIRE IS JOINING ME NOW.

BRIAN, THANK YOU SO MUCH FOR BEING HERE WITH US AS AN ABC NEWS LEGAL CONTRIBUTOR AND TRIAL ATTORNEY. BRIAN, YOU KNOW, INITIALLY JUST TO UPDATE EVERYONE ON SOME THINGS, SAW SOME VIDEO THERE OF A SHATTERED WATCH. THE REASON THAT THIS FAMILY WAS AMONG THE FIRST TO ARRIVE IS BECAUSE THEY ACTUALLY GOT AN

ALERT, YOU KNOW, FROM HIS IWATCH RIGHT TO THEIR PHONES. THEY TOLD ME THEY THREW ON THEIR PAJAMAS AND RAN TO THE SCENE. >> AND BRIAN, AS YOU KNOW, BOTH OF YOUNG MEN HAVE PLEADED NOT GUILTY. AND WE ACTUALLY SPOKE WITH ATTORNEY FOR THE ALLEGED HASTINGS, WHO WAS 17 WHEN THIS HAPPENED, BRIAN.

BUT HE’S NOW 18. AND HE SAID THAT HIS CLIENT AND THE OTHER DEFENDANT, A 16 YEAR OLD, WHO POLICE SAY RECORDED THE WHOLE THING, WHERE WE TRIED TOGETHER. BUT, BRIAN, DO YOU ANTICIPATE THIS ACTUALLY GOING TO TRIAL ALL? >> KATE, I DON’T THINK THIS IS A TRIAL CASE.

I DON’T THINK A TRIAL CASE BASED ON THE FACTS THAT WE’RE SEEING HERE IN MY MIND. THIS IS A CASE WHERE YOU’RE SEEKING MITIGATION. NOW THEY’RE BEING CHARGED AS ADULTS BASED ON THE CRIME AND THE AGE THAT THEY HAD. THEY’RE NOT FACING THE DEATH PENALTY. SO THE MOST THEY’RE LOOKING

AT IS 20 YEARS TO LIFE HERE. I WOULD BE LOOKING AT MITIGATION TO, TRY TO FIGURE OUT WHEN THEY CAN GET BEFORE THE PAROLE BOARD, AS SOON AS POSSIBLE AND HAVE THE BEST AND LIKELY POSSIBILITY OF GETTING OUT. THIS IS NOT AN EASY CASE IN ANY WAY, SHAPE OR FORM, BUT I

UNDERSTAND THE DEFENSE ATTORNEYS, YOU HAVE TO SHOW A STRONG FRONT SAY THAT YOU’RE LOOKING FOR AN IMPARTIAL, YOU’RE LOOKING FOR A POTENTIAL OR JUST FAIR. >> BUT I CAN’T IMAGINE IT’S GOING TO TRIAL OVERALL. AND BOTH OF THE DEFENDANTS WERE ACTUALLY SEEN IN COURT. THEY WERE LAUGHING DURING A PRETRIAL HEARING.

AND THE FAMILY TOLD US THEY THOUGHT THAT THEY WERE LAUGHING AT THEM. THEY WERE VERY UPSET. WHAT WHAT DOES THIS KIND OF BEHAVIOR SAY ABOUT THEM, ESPECIALLY CONSIDERING BRIAN THAT ONE OF THEIR LAWYERS ACTUALLY DID TELL US HE’S WORRIED THAT HIS CLIENT WILL GET A FAIR TRIAL. >> I MEAN, THE CLIENT CAN

GET AS FAR AS A TRIAL AS THEY PUT THEIR BEST OR WORST FOOT FORWARD, DEPENDING ON WHAT YOU ARE LOOKING AT IN THIS CASE. IF YOU’RE A DEFENSE ATTORNEY, I’M ALREADY LOOKING WHAT WE CALL THE DSM FIVE. THAT’S HOW YOU DIAGNOSE SOMEONE BASED ON A PERSONALITY. IF I’M THE DEFENSE ATTORNEY,

I’M SAYING THAT’S NARCISSISTIC PERSONALITY DISORDER. A OF EMPATHY, A LACK OF UNDERSTANDING OF OTHER PEOPLE’S HARM AND A IMPRESSION OF YOURSELF. BUT FOR THE PROSECUTION AND EVERYONE ELSE LOOKING AT THAT, THAT’S A COLD HEARTED KILLER. THESE PEOPLE ARE NOT JUST ACCUSED OF RUNNING OVER ONE ELDERLY MAN WHO WAS A RETIRED POLICE OFFICER.

THEY’RE ACCUSED OF STEALING MULTIPLE CARS, BURGLARIZING GRAND LARCENY AND RUNNING OVER NOT JUST ONE, BUT TWO PEOPLE. LUCKILY, WE ONLY HAVE A SINGLE MURDER HERE. WE DON’T HAVE TO. AND SO I THINK FOR MANY PEOPLE VIEWING THIS, NOT ONLY LAUGHING AT THE COURT, BUT HEAR THERE’S ALSO ALLEGATIONS OF LAUGHING INSIDE

THE POLICE CRUISER. THAT’S A COLD HEARTED KILLER. BUT THE DEFENSE HAS GOT TO TRY TO WRAP IT IN A DIFFERENT PACKAGE. >> AND ON THAT NOTE, INSIDE THE POLICE CRUISER, BRIAN, ALSO A VIDEO. IT’S FROM THE BODY WORN CAMERAS FROM THESE OFFICERS DURING THE ARREST OF THE ALLEGED DRIVER.

AND HE’S HE IS LAUGHING. >> HE’S SAYING THINGS LIKE HE WOULD ONLY GET A SLAP ON THE WRIST BECAUSE HE’S A JUVENILE. >> CLEARLY, THAT’S NOT THE CASE, BRIAN. YEAH, I MEAN, TO HIS POINT, IF HE DID NOT BELIEVE THAT HE HAD KILLED ANYONE WOULD BE RIGHT.

THE ONLY REASON WHY HE’S BEING CHARGED AS AN ADULT IS BECAUSE OF MURDER OCCURRED AND SOMEONE DIED. BUT THAT HEARTLESSNESS, THAT CALLOUS GENIUS, THE WAY HE’S OPERATING, THE JUDGE, I DON’T THINK IS GOING TO BE A JURY, BUT THE PROSECUTOR AND ESPECIALLY THE FAMILY WHO’S GOING TO BE ABLE TO PARTICIPATE

WITH THE PROSECUTOR IN DETERMINING ARE THEY GOING TO GET A PLEA DEAL? WILL THEY BE OFFERED SOMETHING OR WILL THEY BE HELD TO THE MAXIMUM PENALTY IN THIS CASE? THEY’RE GOING TO BE LISTENING TO THOSE LAUGHTER, NOT ONLY IN THE COURTROOM, BUT ALSO IN THE BODY WORN CAMERA, BECAUSE

THAT SHOWS A LACK OF REMORSE, A LACK OF CALLOUSNESS THAT WILL AFFECT THEIR CASE NOT ONLY TODAY OR TOMORROW BUT POTENTIALLY IF THEY’RE SENTENCED BEFORE A PAROLE BOARD. ARE THEY EVEN GOING TO GET RELEASED IF THEY GET THE MAXIMUM 20 YEARS OR COULD THEY SEE MORE OF A LIFE

SENTENCE BECAUSE OF THE LACK OF REMORSE AND OTHER ASPECTS OF THIS CASE THAT ARE JUST SO HEINOUS. >> RIGHT. AND BRIAN, I SPOKE WITH AUTHORITIES THERE IN LAS VEGAS AND THEY SAID ME ESSENTIALLY IT’S REALLY RARE IN A CASE WHERE THEY HAVE THIS VIDEO WHERE YOU GET AN INSIDE

LOOK AT A SUSPECT, YOU KNOW, BEFORE DURING AND AFTER THEY COMMIT A CRIME LIKE THIS. AND THEY SAID THAT THAT IS VERY INTERESTING AS THEY MOVE FORWARD. >> ABSOLUTELY. THE BEST THING THAT A DEFENSE HAS IS THAT THE PROSECUTION, THE JUDGE DON’T, HAVE A GLIMPSE INTO THE MINDSET OF THE DEFENDANT.

AND SO THEY CAN ARGUE MENTAL HEALTH OR ANY OTHER ISSUES THAT MIGHT MITIGATE THE CASE. BUT HERE WE HAVE THE LAUGHTER, WE HAVE THE POINTING OUT WE HAVE THE GO AND GET THEM. YOU WOULD THINK THAT THIS WAS SOME SORT OF A VIDEO GAME TO THEM, WAY THAT THEY CALLOUSLY TREATED OTHER

ABC NEWS, “WORLD NEWS TONIGHT” WITH DAVID MUIR, AMERICA’S NUMBER ONE MOST WATCHED NEWSCAST ACROSS ALL TELEVISION .

ON DEVELOPING RIGHT NOW, A SECOND STRIKE ON A REFUGEE CAMP GAZA. I’M KAYNA WHITWORTH IN LOS ANGELES, AND THAT IS TODAY’S BIG. ISRAELI DEFENSE FORCES TAKING RESPONSIBILITY FOR THIS LATEST ATTACK. DRAMATIC IMAGES SHOWING THE UTTER DEVASTATION AT THE REFUGEE CAMP AND THE IDF CONFIRMING THAT HAMAS TERRORISTS WERE KILLED IN THAT ATTACK.

NOW, THIS COMES AS AMERICAN AID WORKERS ARE FINALLY ENTERING EGYPT. THE BORDER CROSSING BETWEEN GAZA AND EGYPT FOR THE FIRST TIME SINCE THE START OF THE WAR FOR, NATIONALS SEEN LEAVING GAZA. SEVERAL AMBULANCES CROSSING THE BORDER AS WELL. THIS AS THE DEEPENING CRISIS CAN USE TO UNFOLD. THERE IS GROWING CONCERN

ABOUT THE HOSTAGES BEING HELD THERE IN GAZA. AND I’LL BE SPEAKING WITH A FATHER WHOSE SON IS AMONG THEM. ALSO IN OUR SPOTLIGHT, THE HOUSE BACK TO WORK ON CAPITOL HILL. THE KEY ISSUES THAT LAWMAKERS ARE TACKLING. WITH A NEW SPEAKER AT THE HELM . AND, OF COURSE, WE BEGIN

WITH OUR BIG STORY, A SECOND STRIKE ON A REFUGEE CAMP IN GAZA. >> THE IDF CONFIRMING THAT HAMAS TERRORISTS WERE KILLED IN THAT ATTACK AND AS THE PLEA FOR THE RELEASE OF THESE HOSTAGES BEING HELD IN GAZA IS GROWING EVEN LOUDER. NOW, AMONG THOSE HOSTAGES, 26-YEAR-OLD ALAN SHUM REIS

ON FATHER SAYS THAT HE WAS KIDNAPPED FROM HIS HOME DURING THAT TERROR ATTACK IN ISRAEL ON OCTOBER 7TH. HIS FATHER, AVI, IS JOINING ME NOW. AVI, THANK YOU SO MUCH FOR TAKING THE TIME TO SPEAK WITH US. I CAN’T IMAGINE HOW DIFFICULT THIS HAS BEEN FOR YOU. FIRST, HAVE YOU RECEIVED ANY

INFORMATION ABOUT, YOUR SON, SINCE HE WAS KIDNAPPED? WELL, UNFORTUNATELY, FROM OCTOBER SEVEN, 10 A.M. IN THE MORNING, I HAVE NO IDEA WHAT’S HAPPENED TO MY SON. AND UNTIL WE DIDN’T GET ANY MESSAGE, THE HAMAS OR ANY OTHER PERSON ABOUT MY SON. >> WELL, IT WAS JUST TODAY THAT THE NSC COORDINATOR,

JOHN KIRBY, THAT WHILE A BROAD CEASE FIRE IS NOT THE RIGHT, HE CONTINUES TO SUPPORT THIS IDEA OF A TEMPORARY PAUSE, THE FIGHTING SO THAT NOT ONLY AID CAN GET IN AND PEOPLE CAN GET OUT, BUT SPECIFICALLY MAYBE HOSTAGES COULD GET OUT. SO WHAT IS YOUR TAKE ON THAT?

>> WELL, I’M NOT A POLITICIAN. I’M JUST A CIVILIAN IN ISRAEL. I KNOW MY SON WAS TAKEN FROM HIS HOUSE AS A HOSTAGE IN GAZA AND I WANT HIM BACK. I DON’T KNOW. HOW SHOULD I COME TO MY GOVERNMENT OR TO THE HAMAS GOVERNMENT AND ASK THEM TO RELEASE ALL THE HOSTAGES

BECAUSE? MY SON IS NOT THE SOLDIER OR NOT THE SOMEBODY WHO WAS FIGHTING. HE WAS JUST A CIVILIAN AT HIS HOME. THE PALESTINIAN WHO CAME TO KIBBUTZ AND TO HIS HOUSE PULLING OUT AND KIDNAPPING TO GAZA. SO FOR ME, IF IT’S A CEASE FIRE, NOT I DON’T CARE.

>> I WANT MY SON BACK. UNDERSTANDABLE. AND WHAT IS YOUR REACTION WHEN YOU SEE THESE VIDEOS RELEASED OF THE HOSTAGES THAT ARE HELD, HAMAS AND YOU SEE THESE VIDEOS AND YOU DON’T SEE YOUR IN THEM THAT THE HAMAS TOOK MY SON FROM HOUSE AND THEY PUT HIM SOMEWHERE IN GAZA.

>> I DON’T KNOW HOW HOW I COME TO THEM AND ASK THEM PLEASE IT IS MY SON. HE DIDN’T DO ANYTHING TO YOU IS JUST A CITIZEN IS NOT. AND ARMY GUY IS NOT A FIGHTER. IT IS JUST CIVILIAN. HE WAS STAYING PEACEFULLY IN HIS HOME. SO I DON’T KNOW HOW SHOULD COME

TO THE HAMAS AS THEY PLEASE RELEASE THEM. >> THEY DIDN’T HARM YOU EVER. >> RIGHT? RIGHT. YOU KNOW, LAST WEEK WE SAW A BIT OF A SHIFT HERE FROM THE IDF AND PRIME MINISTER BENJAMIN NETANYAHU SAYING THAT THEIR PRIORITY WAS RESCUING HOSTAGES HELD BY HAMAS. AND YET IN THE LAST COUPLE

OF DAYS, WE’RE HEARING, AS YOU KNOW, THAT THE IDF FOCUSED ON KILLING HAMAS LEADERS IN FACE TO FACE COMBAT IN GAZA. THEY’RE MOVING FURTHER INTO GAZA EACH DAY. DOES THAT REASSURE YOU AT ALL THAT RESCUING THE HOSTAGES IS STILL A PRIORITY FOR THE IDF ? BENJAMIN NETANYAHU IS A POLITICIAN.

I’M NOT A POLITICIAN. I DON’T CARE WHAT HE’S TRYING TO. BENJAMIN NETANYAHU IS THE PRIME MINISTER OF ISLAM. MY SON IS A CITIZEN OF. ARGENTINA AND AN ISRAELI. SO FOR ME, THE FIRST PRIORITY IS THE LATEST. MY SON. WHAT BENJAMIN TRYING TO DO WITH THE HAMAS. IT IS BUSINESS.

MY SON IS NOT PART OF THIS BUSINESS. I WANT HIM OUT IMMEDIATELY. >> IT’S ABSOLUTELY UNDERSTANDABLE. AVI, THANK YOU FOR TALKING WITH US AND FOR SHARING YOUR STORY. AND PLEASE KEEP US UPDATED. >> WE’LL BE CHECKING IN WITH YOU. OKAY? THANK YOU, AVI. PLEASE.

I WILL ASK IF SOMEBODY IN THE OTHER SIDE IN GAZA IS LISTENING OR WATCHING THIS INTERVIEW. I’M ASKING TO KEEP HIM ALIVE SAFE, AND I WANT TO BACK AS FAST AS WE CAN IN PEACEFUL. >> THANK YOU VERY MUCH. OF COURSE. THANK YOU, AVI. I WANT TO NOW BRING THE STORY

TO OUR PANEL. SO JOINING US TODAY IS OUR ABC NEWS CONTRIBUTOR AND SIRIUS XM RADIO HOST MIKE MUSE, ALONG ABC NEWS, NATIONAL SECURITY AND DEFENSE ANALYST MICK MULROY AND ABC NEWS DEPUTY POLITICAL DIRECTOR AVERI HARPER AND ABC NEWS SENIOR PENTAGON REPORTER MARTINEZ. THANK YOU ALL FOR BEING HERE WITH WITH ME.

AND I YOU HEARD THAT AS WELL AS YOU’RE HEARING A TERRIFIED FATHER ESSENTIALLY PLEADING FOR HIS SON’S LIFE RIGHT NOW. AND SO MIKE AS WE START HERE WITH YOU, YOU KNOW, THE IDF IS MAKING THEIR WAY ALL THE WAY INTO NORTHERN GAZA. THEY’RE TALKING ABOUT FACE TO FACE COMBAT.

SO IN ACTUALITY, WHAT DOES THAT REALLY MEAN IN TERMS OF RESCUING THESE HOSTAGES? AND COULD ANYTHING HAVE BEEN GAINED FROM THIS SOLDIER, THIS IDF SOLDIER THAT WAS RESCUED LAST WEEK? WHAT KIND OF INTELLIGENCE COULD SHE HAVE PROVIDED? >> YES, THAT IS A GOOD QUESTION AND A GOOD POINT.

I THINK SHE LIKELY WAS THOROUGHLY DEBRIEFED TO GET ALL THE INFORMATION THAT SHE KNOWS ABOUT HOW SHE WAS HELD, WHERE SHE WAS HELD, THE PEOPLE THAT WERE AROUND HER IN ALL THAT CIRCUMSTANCES, WHICH IS REALLY CRITICAL WHEN IT COMES TO FACILITATING AN ACTUAL MILITARY OPERATION TO FREE SOME OTHER HOSTAGES.

I THINK THAT WILL HAPPEN RIGHT. WE’VE SEEN, I THINK, AROUND 10,000 IDF SOLDIERS INFILTRATE FROM THE NORTH, FROM THE EAST, AND FROM THOSE SEA, AND THEY ARE ESSENTIALLY SURROUNDING GAZA CITY. AND THEY’RE GETTING CLOSE. AND SOME OF THEM, I THINK, ARE ALREADY INSIDE THE CITY. SO THIS IS WHERE URBAN COMBAT

REALLY GETS DIFFICULT. I’VE SPENT A LOT OF MY CAREER IN URBAN COMBAT, AND IT IS THE WORST. IT IS IT IS VIOLENT, IT IS DESTRUCTIVE, AND IT IS VERY CHAOTIC. YOU REALLY CAN’T TELL WHO’S WHO, ESPECIALLY WHEN YOU’RE FIGHTING PEOPLE, WHO DELIBERATELY HIDE AMONGST THE CIVILIAN POPULATION.

AND WE KNOW HAMAS SOLDIERS, ACCORDING TO THE IDF, ALSO DRESSED CIVILIAN CLOTHING AS WELL. LUI TO YOU AND WHAT CAPAZ? HAVE YOU HEARD THAT THE U.S. SPECIAL FORCES OPERATIONS THERE ,THEY’RE INVOLVED IN AIDING ISRAEL AND AT LEAST GATHERING INFORMATION ABOUT THESE HOSTAGES TAKEN BY HAMAS? >> WHAT ROLE ARE THEY PLAYING?

YOU KNOW, WE KNOW THAT THERE IS A SMALL FORCE OF SPECIAL OPERATORS, AS THEY’RE KNOWN WHO HAVE BEEN IN ISRAEL NOW FOR WEEKS. AND WHAT THEY HAVE BEEN DOING IS PROVIDING PROVIDING INFORMATION, INTELLIGENCE TO THE ISRAELI MILITARY ABOUT SPECIFICALLY HOW THEY MIGHT COUNTER TAKE SOME HOSTAGE RESCUE OPERATIONS IF THEY GET

INFORMATION ABOUT WHERE THESE HOSTAGES MAY BE. THE HARDEST PART IS ACTUALLY TRYING TO FIGURE OUT WHERE THEY MAY BE. WE KNOW THAT IN THAT ONE RESCUE OF THE MILITARY, THE ISRAELI MILITARY SOLDIER FROM PAST WEEK, THAT THERE WAS, I THINK, SUSPICION THAT THERE MAY HAVE BEEN OTHER HOSTAGES WHO WERE

AT THAT SAME LOCATION AND INSTEAD THEY ONLY FOUND HER. I THINK THAT SHOWS THE DIFFICULTY IN TRYING TO ASCERTAIN EXACTLY THESE HOSTAGES MAY BE. THIS U.S. TEAM IS THERE. THEY CAN PROVIDE THEIR EXPERIENCE, LIKE MICK SUGGESTED. A LOT OF SPECIAL OPERATORS OVER THE LAST YEARS HAVE TONS OF EXPERIENCE, ESPECIALLY

AT THE TIER ONE LEVEL. AND SO THEY PASS THAT ON TO THE ISRAELIS. BUT MOST IMPORTANTLY, I THINK IT’S THE INFORMATION THAT PASSING A LOT OF INTELLIGENCE THAT REALLY HELPS IN WHAT THE ISRAELIS AND TRY TO ASCERTAIN EXACTLY WHERE THEY MIGHT BE. >> IT’S CERTAINLY AN AVERAGE HERE. >> EARLIER TODAY, NSC

SPOKESPERSON JOHN KIRBY ESSENTIALLY CONTINUED TO PUSH FOR HUMANITARIAN PAUSE IN GAZA DESPITE THE PRESSURE COMING FROM THE DEMOCRATIC PARTY PARTY FOR A CEASE FIRE. SO WHAT ARE YOUR SOURCES TELLING YOU IN THE DEMOCRATIC ABOUT THESE LATEST CALLS FOR A CEASE FIRE AGAIN VERSUS A HUMANITARIAN PAUSE? >> RIGHT.

I THINK WHEN WE LOOK AT THIS FROM A POLITICAL LENS AND AGAIN, IT’S REALLY HEARTBREAKING TO HEAR THE STORY OF THAT, WHO JUST DESPERATELY WANTS HIS SON TO COME HOME. YOU HEAR FOLKS IN INCREASING CALLS FOR A PAUSE OR A CEASE FIRE, NOT ONLY TO TRY AND FIND SOME OF THESE HOSTAGES,

BUT ALSO TO ALLOW FOR HUMANITARIAN AID TO COME IN TO GAZA. AND I THINK WHEN WE LOOK AT THIS POLITICALLY, IT’S GOING TO START TO IMPACT PRESIDENT BIDEN AS HE STARTS HIS REELECTION. RIGHT. THERE MUSLIM LEADERS AND GROUPS THAT ARE CALLING FOR A CEASE FIRE AND TO WITHHOLD SUPPORT

FOR BIDEN IN KEY SWING STATES AND PLACES, MICHIGAN, WISCONSIN, PENNSYLVANIA. THE EYES OF THIS COMMUNITY ARE ON THE BIDEN ADMINISTRATION TO SEE HOW THEY HANDLE THIS CONFLICT. >> AND, MIKE, TO YOU, YOU KNOW, AS AVERY POINTS OUT, I MEAN, THIS HAS BEEN SO. AND, MIKE, AS I WAS SPEAKING

WITH THAT FATHER, IT JUST SORT OF STRUCK THAT SOMETIMES THE HEADLINES IN THIS STORY ARE SO POLITICAL AND ARE WE SOMETIMES JUST OVERLOOKING THE INDIVIDUAL GRIEVING FAMILIES? RIGHT NOW, WE ARE. THAT SOMETHING ABOUT THAT INTERVIEW THAT YOU DID, THAT FATHER REALLY STRUCK ME. AND, YOU KNOW, KIND OF WE HAVE

TO REPORT ON THIS EVERY DAY THAT ALMOST SOMETIMES WE BECOME NUMB TO IT. BUT EVERY NOW AND THEN, A STORY BREAKS THROUGH. AND HEARING THAT FATHER STORY PLEAD HIS CASE, HIS SON, YOU COULD HEAR THE SHEER TERROR AND CONCERN THAT HE HAS FOR HIS SON. AND THAT JUST SENT CHILLS TO ME

WITH THAT. AND YOU SAW ME MY HEAD WHEN HE WAS SPEAKING ABOUT THE AMERICANIZATION ASPECT. IT WHICH I FIND REALLY INTERESTING THAT VICE PRESIDENT HARRIS WAS SPEAKING TODAY IN BILATERAL MEETINGS AND U.K. WITH THE PRIME MINISTER REALLY DISCUSSING THE STATEMENT THAT SHE MADE WAS THAT WE MUST NOT CONFLATE

THE PALESTINIAN PEOPLE WITH HAMAS AND TO ENSURE THAT THE ISLAMOPHOBIA IS ON THE RISE JUST AS MUCH AS ANTI-SEMITISM IS ON THE RISE. AND I CAN’T HELP BUT REMIND OF WHAT GEORGE BUSH SAID AFTER 911 IS THAT WE’RE NOT AT WAR AGAINST THE MUSLIM PEOPLE OR A RELIGION, BUT THOSE WHO SEEK

TO DO HARM IN HATE. AND I THINK THAT HAS TO UNDERSCORE SOMETHING TODAY, THIS EVENING, REALLY SITTING WITH ME, AS WE DISCUSSED THIS. >> RIGHT. KEEP THE FOCUS THERE. MIKE, MAC, AVERY AND LOUIS, THANK YOU ALL. WE APPRECIATE YOUR TIME. COMING UP NEXT HERE, THE NEW HOUSE SPEAKER, MIKE JOHNSON.

>> HE WON THE GAVEL, AS YOU KNOW. BUT CAN HE LEAD A DIVIDED CONGRESS WITH ISSUES LIKE AID TO ISRAEL AND A LOOMING GOVERNMENT SHUTDOWN? WE’LL TALK ABOUT THAT NEXT. IN OUR SPOTLIGHT. >> SUDDENLY, THERE WAS A SHOT IN, THE KENNEDY CENTER WITH THE GREATEST COURAGE ABOUT THAT.

>> THEY BRING BACK THE LARGE ORDER. WHY DO YOU YOU GIVE IT TO ME? GIVE IT TO ME. >> HE HIT ME WITH THUNDERBIRD ON THE PHONE. LOST EVERYTHING A LITTLE. JUST A LITTLE BIT IN THE MORNING. JUST A LITTLE BIT. SMILE A LITTLE MORE THAN A MINUTE.

WHEN I DO THE SAME JOB ON GOOD MORNING AMERICA. >> FROM AMERICA’S NUMBER NEWS SOURCE COMES THE ALL-NEW ABC NEWS APP. BREAKING NEWS INCREDIBLE VIDEO. FASTER, SMARTER AND IT CAN CUSTOMIZE YOU AND YOUR INTERESTS. IF YOU LOVE BEING IN THE KNOW YOU’RE GOING TO LOVE THIS EXPERIENCE WITH ALL THE LESSONS

LAWMAKERS COULD VOTE AS SOON AS TONIGHT. A RESOLUTION TO EXPEL GOP CONGRESSMAN JORGE SANTOS, WHO’S PLEADED NOT GUILTY TO 23 FEDERAL CHARGES, INCLUDING FRAUD AND ALLEGED CAMPAIGN FINANCE VIOLATIONS. >> IN THE MEANTIME, NEW REPUBLICAN HOUSE SPEAKER MIKE JOHNSON IS FORCING A SHOWDOWN SHOWDOWN. EMERGENCY AID TO ISRAEL PUSHING

A $14 BILLION PACKAGE THAT DOES NOT INCLUDE AID TO UKRAINE. AND IT’S ALSO FAR LESS THAN THE $106 BILLION PROPOSAL FROM PRESIDENT BIDEN, WHICH DOES INCLUDE AID FOR UKRAINE AND ALSO HAS SUPPORT FROM HOUSE, SENATE DEMOCRATS AND SENATE REPUBLICANS. SO I WANT TO BRING BACK OUR PANEL HERE, MIKE MUSE,

MICK MULROY, AVERI HARPER, AND JOINING US FOR THIS ONE IS JAY O’BRIEN THERE ON CAPITOL HILL. JAY, THANKS FOR BEING WITH US. AND WE’LL START HERE WITH YOU. WHAT IS THE LATEST THERE? DO YOU THINK THEY WILL ACTUALLY SEE THIS VOTE TO EXPEL SANTOS? AND WHAT ABOUT THE NEW SPEAKER’S PROPOSAL?

HEAR FOR ADDITIONAL FUNDING TO ISRAEL WITHOUT AID FOR UKRAINE? >> LET’S START WITH SANTOS ON THAT ONE DAY. YEAH, WE’RE ON TRACK FOR AN EXPULSION VOTE TONIGHT FOR SANTOS. THEY JUST WRAPPED UP THE DEBATE ,THE HOUSE FLOOR, ABOUT WHETHER OR NOT HE SHOULD BE EXPELLED. AND SANTOS EVEN SAID HIS PIECE

THERE, HE ACCUSED HIS COLLEAGUES OF ACTING AS, QUOTE, JUDGE AND EXECUTIONER FOR HIM. ON THE FLIP SIDE, NEW YORK REPUBLICANS, THOSE IN SANTOS, HIS OWN PARTY AND HIS OWN STATE WHO BROUGHT FORWARD RESOLUTION SAID THAT EVERY TIME THEY TRY TO DO THE WORK OF THEIR CONSTITUENTS ,THEY’RE JUST SIDETRACKED

BY ANOTHER STORY ABOUT GEORGE. SO, AGAIN, WE’RE ON TRACK FOR THAT VOTE TONIGHT. SHOULD BE IN A FEW HOURS FROM NOW. BUT YOU’VE GOT TO GET TWO THIRDS OF THE HOUSE TO AGREE TO KICK SANTOS OUT. AND THAT’S A TALL ORDER. NOW ON THAT, UKRAINE AND ISRAEL FUNDING.

HARD CORE LINE REPUBLICANS HAVE SAID THEY DON’T WANT TO LINK FUNDING FOR ISRAEL TO FUNDING UKRAINE. >> THE SPEAKER PUT FORWARD HIS OWN PLAN THAT DIDN’T LINK THE TWO. AS YOU SD AND ARE STEEP CUTS TO THE IRS. BUT THERE’S A LOT OF PUSHBACK BECAUSE. A NEW REPORT OUT TODAY FROM

A NONPARTISAN CONGRESSIONAL BUDGET OFFICE SAID ADDS $12 BILLION TO THE DEFICIT RATHER THAN TRIES TO ANY KIND OF MONEY THAT WOULD GO TO ISRAEL BY CUTTING MONEY OUT OF THE IRS, WHICH PUTS THE SPEAKER IN A TOUGH POSITION AND POTENTIALLY TEES UP A FIGHT BETWEEN HOUSE AND THE SENATE. >> CERTAINLY DOES.

THERE AN AVERAGE YOU, AS JAY JUST MENTIONED HERE, TWO THIRDS VOTE WHEN IT COMES DESANTIS, THIS CAN BE A REALLY RARE MOVE WE SEE IT GO THROUGH. DO YOU THINK THAT LAWMAKERS CAN ACTUALLY PUSH TO THROW HIM OUT? >> DO YOU THINK THEY’LL BE SUCCESSFUL? I MEAN, IT’S A REALLY HIGH BAR

REGARDLESS OF WHAT HAPPENS IN THE VOTE TONIGHT. WE KNOW THAT THERE ARE ELECTIONS COMING UP AND THERE ARE CANDIDATES ON BOTH SIDES OF THE AISLE WHO ARE LINING UP TO TRY AND TAKE GEORGE SANTOS’S SEAT. HIS SEAT WAS THAT FLIPPED RED? IT WAS HELD BY A DEMOCRAT PRIOR TO THAT.

AND SO THERE’S DEMOCRATS THAT ARE TRYING THEIR DARNDEST TO GET THAT SEAT BACK. AND THE GOP IN NEW YORK IS TRYING TO PUT UP A VIABLE WHO CAN KEEP THAT SEAT RED THAT SEAT AND MANY OF THOSE GOP SEATS IN NEW YORK WERE CRITICAL TO. >> THE GOP HAVING ITS MAJORITY

IN THE HOUSE. >> AND MICK, LET’S TALK ABOUT THIS FUNDING FOR ISRAEL HERE. SO I WANT TO POINT OUT THAT THE DEFENSE SECRETARY, LLOYD AUSTIN, SAID YESTERDAY, QUOTING HIM, HARRY SAID, I CAN GUARANTEE YOU THAT WITHOUT OUR SUPPORT, PUTIN WILL BE SUCCESSFUL. >> SO OF COURSE, HE’S TALKING

ABOUT IN TERMS OF FUNDING FOR UKRAINE AS WELL. AND HE WENT ON TO SAY THAT, YOU KNOW, ESSENTIALLY THE U.S. WILL PAY MORE DEARLY IN THE FUTURE IF RUSSIA ALLOWED TO SUCCEED IN UKRAINE. SO WHAT’S YOUR TAKE ON POTENTIALLY GETTING A BILL THROUGH THAT DOESN’T INCLUDE AID FOR THEM?

WELL, I THINK THAT’S A BAD IDEA. I THINK PHILOSOPHICALLY IT MAKES SENSE TO A BILL THAT INCLUDES UKRAINE, ISRAEL AND TAIWAN, ALL DEMOCRACY IS A LONG TIME SECURITY PARTNER OF THE UNITED STATES. SO PHILOSOPHICALLY DOES MAKE SENSE. ON UKRAINE, IT’S IMPORTANT TO NOTE THAT WE HAD NIR IN UNANIMOUS.

I DON’T GET INTO POLITICS, BUT WE HAD NEAR UNANIMOUS SUPPORT FOR THEM AT THE BEGINNING. THEY’RE FIGHTING OUR SECOND MOST SIGNIFICANT ADVERSARY. WE PUSHED THEM TO DO A COUNTER OFFENSIVE. IF WE DON’T FIND IT NOW, NOT ONLY IS THAT NO WAY TO TREAT A PARTNER, BUT EVERYBODY’S GOING TO NOTICE THAT BOTH

OUR FRIENDS AND FOES, THE UNITED STATES WILL LOSE SIGNIFICANT CREDIBILITY. WE WILL ESSENTIALLY LEFT A FRIEND IN A FIGHT THAT WE ASK THEM TO DO THE KIND OF AND YEAH, AND MAKE IT. >> THAT’S REALLY PART OF WHAT LLOYD AUSTIN KIND OF WENT ON TO SAY. HE SAID IF PUTIN’S SUCCESSFUL

WILL NOT STOP AT UKRAINE AND IF YOU’RE A BALTIC STATE, YOU’RE WONDERING IF I’M AND NEXT A TERRIFYING REALITY THERE AND MIKE TO YOU LOOK THIS WEEK’S ON CHAOS THAT WE SAW ON THE HILL. I MEAN, IT’S OVER, AT LEAST FOR NOW. RIGHT. BUT WE KNOW THERE’S ALSO ANOTHER SHUTDOWN DEADLINE.

>> IT’S JUST A FEW WEEKS AWAY. SO WHAT WHAT ARE AMERICAN PEOPLE LOOKING AT FROM THE HOUSE, THE LAWMAKERS, AS THEY’RE STARTING TO GET BACK TO WORK HERE? WHAT ARE THEY SAYING? THEY WANT GOVERNANCE TO BE DONE WITHIN THE HOUSE. BUT AS JAKE WAS REPORTING,

I DON’T KNOW IF WE’RE GOING TO SEE MUCH IT GETS DONE, BECAUSE WHAT SPEAKER JOHNSON HAS SIGNALED TODAY WITH HIS COUNTERPROPOSAL FOR EMERGENCY AID FUNDING IS, THAT THIS IS NOW ABOUT IDEOLOGY AND IDEOLOGY SEEMS TO COME EVEN NATIONAL SECURITY AND GOING GETS PRECEDENT ABOUT HOW EMERGENCY IS ACTUALLY ALLOCATED WITHOUT HAVING SPENDING CUTS

ATTACHED TO IT. AND SO I THINK THAT WE’RE GOING TO BE IN FOR A VERY COMPLICATED DID SPEAKERSHIP WITH JOHNSON IN TERMS OF IDEOLOGY GET IN THE WAY OF GOVERNANCE WHICH ALSO IS GOING TO FRUSTRATE THE AMERICAN PUBLIC AND THE VOTER TO WHICH AVERY MENTIONING WITH ELECTIONS COMING UP SOON

AROUND THE CORNER. >> AND JARED, WHAT’S YOUR RESPONSE TO THAT? I KNOW WE SAW A LOT OF DEMOCRATS SAYING, KNOW, WE’VE NEVER SEEN SOMETHING LIKE THIS, THAT IT WAS LIKE A FOR TAT. YEAH. DO I GET TO TALK BECAUSE MIKE INVOKED MY NAME RIGHT? LIKE THE RULES OF A DEBATE.

>> YEAH, BUT ANYWAY, SO IT’S INTERESTING BECAUSE THE PLAYBOOK THAT YOU’RE SEEING FROM SPEAKER JOHNSON, SOMEWHAT WHAT YOU SAW FROM SPEAKER MCCARTHY, WHICH IS TAKE SOMETHING THAT THE SENATE HAS BIPARTISAN AGREEMENT ON, PARTICULARLY WHEN IT COMES TO UKRAINE FUNDING. AND INSTEAD OF DOING THAT AND MCCARTHY DID THIS WITH THE

GOVERNMENT SHUTDOWN FOR A WHILE AS WELL, DO YOUR OWN CONCERN, BILL, THAT HAS YOUR OWN CONSERVATIVE PRIORITIES IN AND A BILL THAT FRANKLY WOULD NOT PASS IN A DEMOCRAT CONTROLLED AND FRANKLY, A BILL THAT EVEN SOME SENATE REPUBLICANS LIKE MITCH MCCONNELL, THE TOP REPUBLICAN IN THAT CHAMBER, WOULD OPPOSE.

AND SO THE REALITY HERE IS IT SETS UP JOHNSON FOR NOT JUST A FIGHT WITH MODERATES IN HIS OWN PARTY, BUT ALSO WITH SENATE REPUBLICANS. WELL, AS, OF COURSE, SENATE DEMOCRATS AND, OF COURSE, THE WHITE HOUSE HERE, TOO. AND IT’S A FIGHT, FRANKLY, THAT WILL DEFINE AT LEAST

THE FIRST MONTH OR SO OF HIS TENURE UP UNTIL AS WE HEAD TOWARD THAT DEADLINE OF A GOVERNMENT SHUTDOWN, WHICH IS ANOTHER THING THAT WILL LIKELY DEFINE HIS SPEAKERSHIP. >> ALL RIGHT. WE’LL SEE HOW IT GOES. JAY, I KNOW YOU’LL BE WATCHING THAT FOR US. AND OUR THANKS TO YOU AS WELL,

AVERY, MICK AND MIKE. COMING UP NEXT HERE, OUR LAST CALL, WHICH MEGASTAR, MUSICIAN AND SELF-PROCLAIMED LOVER OF ALL THINGS, CHRISTMAS IS KICKING OFF THE HOLIDAY FOR . US. HEY, CAN YOU GUESS WHO IT IS? THAT’S OUR LAST CALL. WHEN WE COME BACK. >> WHEN I GOT SENT TO IDAHO

TONIGHT, WE GET TO KNOW THE MAN BEHIND CANDIDATE IN OUR LATEST EDITION OF WHO IS WITH FLORIDA GOVERNOR RON DESANTIS. BUT WE DO BEGIN TONIGHT WITH A NEW AND SIGNIFICANT DEVELOPMENT IN THE ISRAEL MASS WAR. A SELECT FEW CIVILIANS ARE BEING ALLOWED TO LEAVE THE WAR TERRITORY.

THIS COMES AS THE U.N. HUMAN RIGHTS OFFICE SAYS ISRAEL’S ON GAZA REFUGEE CAMP COULD AMOUNT TO WAR CRIMES. TODAY, 335 DUAL PASSPORT HOLDERS, INCLUDING A HANDFUL OF AMERICANS WERE ALLOWED TO PASS THROUGH THE RAFAH BORDER CROSSING EGYPT. THIS COMES AFTER THE DEAL WAS HAMMERED OUT LATE LAST NIGHT.

ISRAEL, EGYPT, HAMAS, THE U.S. AND QATAR WERE ALL PART OF THE NEGOTIATIONS. DUAL AMERICAN CITIZENS. RAMONA OKUMURA AND BARBARA ZIND ARE IN EGYPT TONIGHT. SOME 400 AMERICANS AND 600 OF THEIR IMMEDIATE FAMILY MEMBERS ARE AMONG THOSE WAITING TO LEAVE GAZA. A FLEET OF AMBULANCES WERE ALSO IN TO TAKE DOZENS OF CRITICALLY

INJURED PALESTINIANS, MANY OF THEM CHILDREN, INTO EGYPT FOR DESPERATELY NEEDED MEDICAL CARE. ISRAEL HAS CONFIRMED A SECOND AIRSTRIKE ON THAT REFUGEE CAMP IN NORTHERN GAZA. HAMAS TERRORISTS WERE KILLED, BUT MORE CIVILIANS ARE STILL AMONG DEAD. OUR TEAM IS STANDING BY WITH THE RIPPLE EFFECT OF THIS WAR. NOW HERE IN THE U.S..

BUT FIRST, OUR CHIEF FOREIGN CORRESPONDENT IAN PANNELL LEADS OFF FROM ISRAEL TONIGHT FOR THE FIRST TIME SINCE THE WAR BEGAN. HUNDREDS OF CIVILIANS WERE ALLOWED TO GET OUT OF GAZA INTO EGYPT. AMONG THEM, AT LEAST FIVE AMERICANS. BUT THE BIDEN ADMINISTRATION AWARE HUNDREDS MORE U.S. CITIZENS ARE STILL STUCK

IN GAZA, WORKING NONSTOP TO GET AMERICANS OUT OF GAZA AS SOON AS SAFELY AS POSSIBLE. >> AMERICAN DOCTORS RAMONA OKUMURA AND BARBARA ZIND AT THE . AMONG THOSE US CITIZENS ABLE TO GET OUT TODAY. ALSO AT THE BORDER, SOME OF THE YOUNGEST AND MOST VULNERABLE. THEY’VE WAITED FOR HOURS

SOME DAYS FOR THIS MOMENT. OUR TEAM THE GROUND INSIDE GAZA AT THAT BORDER AS PEOPLE DESPERATELY SEARCH THEIR NAMES ON AN APPROVED LIST, HOPING TODAY THEIR NIGHTMARE. THERE WERE AMBULANCES TO RESCUING SOME OF THE WOUNDED, SO MANY OF THEM CHILDREN. >> AND AS THE BOMBING AND FIGHTING CONTINUES FOR

THE SECOND DAY IN A ROW, ISRAEL CONFIRMING IT STRUCK THE SAME REFUGEE CAMP THAT WAS HIT WITH SUCH DEVASTATING EFFECT TUESDAY, CLAIMING IT WAS A HAMAS STRONGHOLD. THE GAZA HEALTH MINISTRY RUN BY HAMAS CLAIMING MORE PEOPLE KILLED AND OTHERS INJURED IN THE STRIKE. ISRAELI FORCES PUSHING DEEPER INTO GAZA NOW, RELEASING VIDEO

SHOWING HUNTING FOR HAMAS MILITANTS. THE IDF SAYING ITS ARE NOW AT THE GATES OF GAZA CITY DESPITE THE ADVANCE HAMAS STILL ABLE TO LAUNCH ATTACKS AT ISRAEL. >> TAKE OF STICKS. STICKS. WE SAW IT FIRSTHAND FIRSTHAND. THAT’S THE SOUND OF THE IRON DOME SYSTEM. YOU CAN JUST SEE THE AIR

DEFENSE SYSTEM GOING INTO THE AIR TO TRY AND INTERCEPT AN INCOMING HAMAS ROCKET IN CENTRAL. >> AND TONIGHT, UP TO 400 AMERICANS AND THEIR FAMILIES STILL BELIEVE IN GAZA, INCLUDING LENA PERSICO AND HER FAMILY. WE’VE BEEN FOLLOWING THEM FOR WEEKS AND WE’VE NOW LEARNED SHE JUST RECEIVED WORD FROM

THE STATE DEPARTMENT THAT SHE MAY FINALLY BE ABLE TO CROSS INTO EGYPT TOMORROW, STILL EXHAUSTED FROM THE HORRORS THE LAST THREE WEEKS. >> I JUST CAN’T BELIEVE THIS. I JUST CANNOT BELIEVE HOW UGLY THIS WORLD IS BECOMING. >> IT’S JUST HORRIBLE, UTTER DEVASTATION. IAN PANNELL JOINS US ONCE FROM TEL AVIV.

IAN, WHAT ARE U.S. OFFICIALS TELLING YOU, THOSE 400 AMERICANS STILL TRYING TO GET OUT YET? WE KNOW THAT THE STATE DEPARTMENT IS NOW SENDING OUT EMAILS. AMERICANS LIKELY NOW TELLING THEM THAT THEIR NAMES ARE EXPECTED TO BE ON LIST, TO BE ALLOWED TO CROSS INTO

EGYPT IN THE COMING DAYS AND TO CHECK EACH MORNING TO SEE IF THEIR NAME IS ON IT. ANXIOUS HOURS AHEAD, OF COURSE, FOR BUT OBVIOUSLY FOR THE VAST MARITY OF PEOPLE IN GAZA. THEIR NAMES NOT GOING TO APPEAR ON ANY LIST AND THEY HAVE NO WAY TO ESCAPE THE WAR.

AND OF COURSE, THE MORE THAN 200 HOSTAGES HELD BY HAMAS NEGOTIATE IS STILL UNDER WAY TO GET THEM OUT. BUT FOR NOW, NO SIGN OF THEIR RELEASE. >> LINSEY. SUCH TRYING TIMES IN. OUR THANKS TO YOU. JOINING US NOW TO TALK MORE ABOUT THE OPENING OF THAT BORDER WITH EGYPT,

STEVE SOULSBY, THE PRESIDENT AND CO-FOUNDER OF PALESTINE CHILDREN’S RELIEF. STEVE, THANK YOU SO MUCH FOR COMING ON THE SHOW. YOU’RE BASED OHIO, BUT SOME OF YOUR STAFF IN GAZA, THEY’RE CLOSE TO OR ACROSS THE BORDER. WHERE ARE THEY NOW, AS FAR AS YOU KNOW? AND WHAT ARE THEY TELLING

YOU THAT THEIR JOURNEY HAS BEEN LIKE. >> WELL, WE HAD TO VOLUNTEERS WHO PHYSICIANS AND MEDICAL VOLUNTEERS WHO ARE IN GAZA FOR THE PAST THREE PLUS WEEKS. THEY WENT THERE ON HUMANITARIAN MISSIONS. ONE IS A PEDIATRICIAN WHO WAS SEEING CHILDREN WHO NEEDED MEDICAL CARE AND OTHER TYPES OF SUPPORT.

AND THE OTHER IS A PROSTHETIC AND ORTHOTIC SPECIALIST WHO IS FITTING KIDS WHO ARE AMPUTEES WITH ARTIFICIAL LIMBS. AND THEY WERE TO GET OUT THIS MORNING. UNEXPECTEDLY. WE GOT THIS NEWS LAST NIGHT THAT THEY WERE ABLE TO CROSS THIS MORNING AND ARE NOW CURRENTLY ON THEIR WAY, EXHAUSTED, OF COURSE, TO CAIRO

AND IN NEED OF A WELL-DESERVED . THEY’RE CROSSING TOOK SEVERAL HOURS. I MEAN NEARLY 12 HOURS TO GET OUT AND IT WAS A BIT CHAOTIC AND OF COURSE THERE WAS A LOT OF PEOPLE TRYING TO GET OUT UNDERSTANDABLY, INCLUDING PEOPLE. AND WE KNOW THAT, YOU KNOW, THERE WERE SOME INJURED

PEOPLE THAT OUT THROUGH EGYPT. THOSE ARE THE VOLUNTEERS WERE ABLE TO GET OUT. WE HAVE A STAFF OF 40 ON THE GROUND IN GAZA WHO WORK FOR US. THEY’RE SOCIAL WORKERS, FIELD WORKERS ACCOUNTANTS, PROCUREMENT SPECIALISTS. AND WE’RE JUST PRAYING EVERY DAY THAT THERE WILL BE A CEASE FIRE AND THAT THE VIOLENCE

WILL STOP. >> WHAT ARE YOU LEARNING FROM YOUR STAFF ABOUT THOSE SCENES AT THE CROSSING AND WHAT THEY’RE EXPERIENCING? >> WELL, THAT IT WASN’T I MEAN, IT WAS CHAOTIC AND WASN’T VERY WELL-ORGANIZED, UNDERSTANDABLY. AGAIN, THIS IS NOT TO COMPLAIN, BUT YOU CAN IMAGINE WHEN YOU HAVE A SITUATION WHERE

PEOPLE ARE RUNNING OUT OF FOOD OR RUNNING OUT OF CLEAN WATER, THERE’S NO ELECTRICITY, THERE’S NO FUEL, AND THAT THERE’S BOMBS GOING ON ALL OVER THE PLACE AND THERE’S NO SAFE SPACE. PEOPLE ARE BECOMING VERY NERVOUS, ANXIOUS. THEY HAVEN’T SLEPT IN MANY, MANY WEEKS. FOR THE MOST PART, I THINK IT

WAS AN ORDERLY CROSSING, DESPITE SOME OF THOSE SITUATIONS, THE SITUATION AND CONDITIONS THAT I MENTIONED AND, YOU KNOW, PEOPLE BEHAVE THEMSELVES CONSIDERING THAT IT IS KIND OF A DESPERATE AND CHAOTIC IN GENERAL, THE ENTIRE GAZA STRIP. >> A UNICEF SPOKESPERSON HAS CALLED IT GAZA, QUOTE, A GRAVEYARD FOR THOUSANDS OF CHILDREN.

YOUR ORGANIZATION SPECIFICALLY FOCUSES ON PALESTINIAN CHILDREN. WHAT ARE YOUR IMMEDIATE CONCERNS FOR THOSE WHO ARE STILL INSIDE? >> OUR IMMEDIATE CONCERN IS THAT CHILDREN BEING KILLED BY THE HUNDREDS EVERY SINGLE DAY, THEY’RE HAVING THEIR HOMES DESTROYED. THEY’RE BEING THEY’RE NOT ABLE TO FIND ANY REFUGE. THE MEDICAL TREATMENT IS RUNNING OUT.

GASOLINE AND FUEL IS RUNNING OUT. THEIR PAIN MEDICATION IS IN SHORT SUPPLY. DOCTORS CAN’T USE ANESTHESIA ANYMORE. SURGERIES ARE DONE IN THE HOSPITAL CORRIDORS, OFTEN WITHOUT ANESTHESIA. THESE POOR CHILDREN, KIDS ARE, YOU KNOW, INNOCENT VICTIMS ARE BEING KILLED. ORGANIZATIONS LIKE OURS WHO ARE OBLIGATED TO COME IN AND PROVIDE MEDICAL CARE

AND HUMANITARIAN AID FOR THESE KIDS OF ALL CAN’T GET THAT AID TO THEM BECAUSE THE BORDERS ARE, FOR THE MOST PART, BLOCKED . AND SECONDLY, WE’RE GOING TO BE MET WITH AN OVERWHELMING NEED THAT FAR EXCEEDS WHATEVER RESOURCES WE HAVE TO PROVIDE THESE CHILDREN THAT MEDICAL CARE AND HUMANITARIAN THAT THEY NEED

TO LIVE. >> RIGHT NOW, AID ORGANIZATIONS LIKE YOURS ARE STRUGGLING JUST TO PROVIDE THE BASIC NECESSITIES FOR CHILDREN AND THEIR FAMILIES. I AM CURIOUS IF ANYBODY’S THINKING AHEAD ABOUT THE POTENTIAL LONG TERM EFFECTS OF THIS CONFLICT COULD HAVE ON THE CHILDREN OF GAZA. WE HAVE A MENTAL HEALTH

PROGRAM, BUT IT’S IT’S FAR SHORT OF WHAT’S GOING TO BE NEEDED. EVERY SINGLE CHILD, EVERY SINGLE PERSON IN THE GAZA STRIP IS TRAUMATIZED PSYCHOLOGICALLY AND PHYSICALLY. BUT PSYCHOLOGICALLY TRAUMATIZED. IT’S GOING TO LEAVE LONG TERM SCARS IN THE HEALTH OF THESE CHILDREN AND HOW THEY GROW UP WITH THESE DEEP SCARS OF INSECURITY.

FEAR OF ANXIETY IS SOMETHING THAT REQUIRES AN INTENSIVE AMOUNT OF EFFORT TO TRY TO HEAL THEM. BUT GOING TO BE ALMOST IMPOSSIBLE IF THERE IS GOING TO BE A CONTINUATION OF BOMBING VIOLENCE. THAT IS THE ROOT CAUSE OF THIS ANXIETY AND THIS POST-TRAUMATIC STRESS. >> STEVE SALISBURY, WE THANK

YOU SO MUCH FOR TALKING WITH PRESIDENT AND CO-FOUNDER OF PALESTINE CHILDREN’S RELIEF FUND. REALLY APPRECIATE YOUR TIME. WELCOME. AND AT HOME, A CORNELL UNIVERSITY STUDENT APPEARED IN FEDERAL COURT OVER ACCUSATIONS POSTED THREATENING STATEMENTS ONLINE ABOUT JEWISH STUDENTS AT SCHOOL. ABC’S CHIEF JUSTICE CORRESPONDENT PIERRE THOMAS HAS THOSE DETAILS. TONIGHT. AUTHORITIES IDENTIFYING

THE SUSPECT ALLEGEDLY THOSE THREATS TO KILL JEWISH STUDENTS AT CORNELL UNIVERSITY. AND HE’S ONE OF THEM A STUDENT AT CORNELL. 21-YEAR-OLD PATRICK DAI, A JUNIOR ENGINEERING STUDENT IN FEDERAL COURT TODAY ORDERED TO REMAIN IN CUSTODY. POLICE RAIDING HIS HOME OVERNIGHT IN PITTSBURGH, NEW YORK, A SUBURB OF ROCHESTER .

THE FBI SAYS DI IS RESPONSIBLE FOR CREATING A CLIMATE OF FEAR ON CAMPUS, MAKING CHILLING STATEMENTS ONLINE THAT JEWISH PEOPLE NEED TO BE ELIMINATED FROM CORNELL. SAYING HE WAS GOING TO BRING AN ASSAULT RIFLE TO CAMPUS AND SHOOT UP ONE OF FOUR WEST, A KOSHER DINING HALL. THE JEWISH STUDENT AT THE

UNIVERSITY SAYING THEY’RE PAINED AND SADDENED TO LEARN SUCH HATE EXISTS AMONGST OUR PEERS. >> THE FBI HELPED UNIVERSITY POLICE OUT, AND I FEEL BETTER NOW. >> TODAY, THE ATTORNEY GENERAL NOTING, THE SIGNIFICANT INCREASE IN THREATS TARGETING JEWISH, MUSLIM AND ARAB AS THIS ARREST SHOWS. WE ARE FOCUSING EFFORTS ON CONFRONTING AND DISRUPTING

ILLEGAL THREATS WHEREVER THEY ARISE. >> DESPITE THE ARRESTS CORNELL PLANS TO MAINTAIN STEPPED UP SECURITY ON CAMPUS, BUT SADLY, SOME OF THE STUDENTS HAVE DECIDED IT’S SIMPLY SAFER TO GO HOME. >> LINSEY PIERRE, THANK YOU. THERE A PUSH UNDERWAY TO PUSH OUT ONE OF THEIR OWN. THE HOUSE IS CURRENTLY VOTING

ON A REPUBLICAN LED RESOLUTION TO EXPEL EMBATTLED REPRESENTATIVE GEORGE SANTOS, WHO MAINTAINS HIS INNOCENCE AFTER BEING INDICTED ON A SLEW OF FEDERAL CHARGES. JOINING US NOW FOR MORE ON THIS IS OUR SENIOR CONGRESSIONAL CORRESPONDENT, RACHEL. THIS EFFORT TO EXPEL SANTOS WAS BROUGHT BY REPUBLICANS FROM HIS OWN STATE, BUT ARE THERE

ENOUGH VOTES IN IS A NOTABLE POINT THAT YOU’RE MAKING THERE BECAUSE THIS WAS BROUGHT BY NOT ONLY FROM MEMBERS OF HIS OWN PARTY, BUT ALSO FROM HIS OWN STATE THAT ARE CALLING GEORGE SANTOS, WHO IS FACING 23 FEDERAL CHARGES, A STAIN ON THE INSTITUTION. THEY SAY THAT HE IS UNFIT TO SERVE.

BUT THIS IS ALSO A VERY HIGH BAR HERE. YOU NEED TWO THIRDS MAJORITY VOTE IN ORDER TO EXPEL A MEMBER OF CONGRESS, WHICH MEANS THAT MORE THAN 50 REPUBLICANS WOULD HAVE TO BE ON FOR THIS PUSH. IT DOESN’T SEEM LIKE THAT IS LIKELY THIS POINT. AND THIS IS ALSO AN EXTREMELY

RARE MOVE. THERE’S ONLY BEEN FIVE MEMBERS OF CONGRESS THAT HAVE BEEN EXPELLED IN THE UNITED STATES HISTORY. THREE OF THOSE WERE BEFORE THE CIVIL WAR AND THE OTHER TWO WERE CONVICTED OF CHARGES, LINSEY. >> SO SANTOS TOOK TO THE FLOOR TO DEFEND HIMSELF, IS STILL CLEARLY DEFIANT.

CURIOUS WHAT HE HAD TO SAY. AND IF THIS FAILS, COULD MEMBERS TRY TO FORCE A VOTE AGAIN TO EXPEL? >> SANTOS INSISTS THAT HE WILL NOT RESIGN. HE STILL IS DECLARING HIS INNOCENCE. >> TAKE A LISTEN. I MUST WARN MY COLLEAGUES THAT VOTING FOR EXPULSION AT THIS POINT WOULD CIRCUMVENT

THE JUDICIAL SYSTEMS RIGHT TO DUE PROCESS THAT I’M ENTITLED TO? MM-HMM. AND A LOT OF REPUBLICANS THAT DO BELIEVE THAT, WHAT HE HAS DONE, WHAT HE HAS LIED ABOUT, DOES NOT REPRESENT THE REPUBLICAN PARTY. DO YOU UNDERSCORE THAT SAME POINT THAT HE IS MAKING, THAT THIS WOULD BASICALLY SET A DANGEROUS PRECEDENT?

AND THEY’RE ALSO KEEPING IN MIND THIS VERY RAZOR MAJORITY THAT THEY DO HAVE RIGHT NOW. AND IF THEY WERE TO EXPEL SANTOS, THAT’S ONE MORE VOTE THAT THEY WOULD NOT HAVE WITH. ALL RIGHT, RACHEL, SCOUT, US REPORTING FROM INSIDE THE CAPITOL TONIGHT. THANKS SO MUCH, RACHEL. TO NEW YORK NOW, WHERE DONALD

TRUMP JUNIOR TOOK THE STAND AT FORMER PRESIDENT TRUMP’S CIVIL FRAUD TRIAL. PROSECUTORS WERE PRESSING HIM ABOUT WHAT HE KNEW THE FAMILY BUSINESS AFTER HIS FATHER BECAME PRESIDENT. OUR SENIOR INVESTIGATIVE REPORTER, AARON KATERSKY HAS THAT STORY. >> TONIGHT, FIRST OF DONALD TRUMP’S CHILDREN TAKING THE STAND AS A WITNESS IN THE

CIVIL FRAUD TRIAL THAT COULD TEAR THE FAMILY REAL ESTATE BUSINESS APART. I SHOULD HAVE MORE MAKEUP. DONALD TRUMP JR. AND HIS BROTHER ERIC TOOK CONTROL OF THE TRUMP ORGANIZATION WHEN THEIR FATHER BECAME PRESIDENT. >> THESE PAPERS ARE JUST SOME OF THE MANY DOCUMENTS THAT I’VE SIGNED TURNING OVER COMPLETE AND TOTAL CONTROL

TO MY SONS. >> BUT TODAY IN COURT, TRUMP JUNIOR DESCRIBED HIMSELF AS JUST A REAL ESTATE BROKER. AND WHEN ASKED IF HE WAS FAMILIAR WITH BASIC ACCOUNTING OR WAS A MEMBER OF AN ACCOUNTING ORGANIZATION, HE ANSWERED SOUNDS, BUT NO. JUDGE ARTHUR ENGORON HAS ALREADY DETERMINED DOCUMENTS SIGNED BY TRUMP JR. FRAUDULENTLY INFLATED FATHER’S

NET WORTH BY AS MUCH AS $2 BILLION. TODAY, TRUMP JUNIOR TESTIFIED HE WASN’T REALLY AWARE OF WHAT HE WAS SIGNING. I LEAVE IT TO MY CPAS. ECHOING WHAT HE SAID IN SWORN DEPOSITION. >> WHOEVER WAS BRINGING ME A DOCUMENT, IF IT WAS MORE ACCOUNTING, IT WAS PROBABLY FROM ACCOUNTING.

IF IT WAS MORE LEGAL, IT WOULD BE FROM LEGAL. AND I’D LIKE, ARE WE OKAY SIGNING THIS DOCUMENT? DO YOU BELIEVE IT? TO BE HONEST AND ACCURATE? AND IF THEY WERE OKAY WITH IT, THEY’D HAVE MUCH MORE KNOWLEDGE THAN I’D EVER BE ABLE TO AMASS, AND SO I WOULD SIGN IT.

>> TODAY TRUMP JR TELLING THE JUDGE. I HAVE AN OBLIGATION TO TRUST THOSE WITH EXPERTISE. HE HAS ARGUED HE WAS NOT ON TOP OF THE COMPANY’S FINANCES. >> HAVE NO REAL INVOLVEMENT IN THE PREPARATION OF THE STATEMENT ON FINANCIAL CONDITION. >> I DON’T REALLY REMEMBER EVER WORKING ON IT WITH ANYONE.

BUT NEW YORK ATTORNEY GENERAL JAMES SAYS THAT’S JUST NOT TRUE, ARGUING TRUMP JR AND TRUMP WERE AWARE OF AND KNOWINGLY PARTICIPATED IN A YEARS LONG SCHEME TO FRAUDULENTLY BOOST THE BUSINESS’S BOTTOM LINE TO WIN BETTER TERMS ON INSURANCE AND BANK LOANS. AARON KATERSKY JOINS US NOW FROM THE COURTHOUSE.

ERIN, WE KNOW DON GENERAL WILL BE BACK ON THE STAND TOMORROW. WHAT ABOUT ERIC TRUMP AND IVANKA. >> AS SOON AS DON JR FINISHES HIS TESTIMONY, LINSEY ERIC TRUMP WILL TAKE HIS BROTHER’S PLACE ON THE WITNESS STAND. THE JUDGE HAS ALSO ORDERED IVANKA TRUMP TO TESTIFY HERE AS WELL.

SHE’S APPEALING THAT ORDER. SHE’S NO LONGER A DEFENDANT IN THE CASE AND THEIR FATHER, THE FORMER PRESIDENT, IS ATTACKING THE JUDGE ON SOCIAL MEDIA SAYING LEAVE MY CHILDREN ALONE. LINSEY AARON KATERSKY FOR US. >> OUR THANKS TO YOU, ERIN. NEXT TONIGHT, TO THE MILLIONS OF AMERICANS UNDER FREEZE

ALERTS FROM TEXAS TO NEW ENGLAND, A SUDDEN COLD BLAST CATCHING MANY BY SURPRISE. HOW LONG WILL IT LAST? OUR SENIOR METEOROLOGIST ROB MARCIANO TRACKING ALL FOR US. >> HEY, ROB. HEY, LINSEY. WE HAVE THAT BAD RECORD IN 90 DAYS SHOWING THAT THIS COLD AIR BLAST REALLY MUCH

IN A STATEMENT, BOB KNIGHT’S FAMILY SAYS HE PASSED AWAY AT HIS HOME SURROUNDED BY HIS FAMILY. >> BOB KNIGHT WAS 83. STILL MUCH MORE TO GET TO HERE ON. IT MIGHT BE CUTE, BUT PLEASE DON’T CUDDLE. THE PARK SERVICE IS WARNING TO FALL FOLIAGE TOURISTS. BUT NEXT, WOULD YOU BE ABLE

>> HE’S PRODUCED FOR ARTISTS LIKE ALASKA, NICKI DOLL AND THE ROSIE CREATING SONG TO DEMONSTRATE HOW EASY IT IS TO REPLICATE YOUR FAVORITE SINGERS TYPE. ADELE THE VOCAL PROFILE OF A MUSICIAN IS LIKE AN AUDIO BLUEPRINT OF THEIR VOICE CREATED BY PEOPLE FROM ACROSS THE GLOBE, UPLOADING HUNDREDS, SOMETIMES THOUSANDS OF SAMPLES

BY AN ARTIST LIKE ADELE, THE MORE POPULAR AN ARTIST, THE MORE CLIPS ARE OFTEN UPLOADED AND THE MORE THOROUGH A PROFILE WILL BE. AIR TAKES THEM ALL AND BUILDS THE PROFILE AND THEY’RE POSTED ON WEBSITES AVAILABLE FOR ANYONE TO USE THESE PROFILES MADE WITHOUT THE ARTISTS OR THE RECORD LABEL’S KNOWLEDGE.

IT’S A CREATION BY AN ANONYMOUS TECH TALKER WHO GOES BY THE NAME THAT MADE EVERYBODY FREAK OUT. THAT’S A LITTLE ALARMING BECAUSE PARTS OF IT SOUND RIDICULOUS. PARTS OF IT SOUND PRETTY CONVINCING. >> IF IT SOUNDS LIKE THAT AT THIS EARLY STAGE, WHAT’S NEXT? >> GHOSTWRITER EVEN SUBMITTED THE SONGS FOR GRAMMY

CONSIDERATION, WHICH THE ACADEMY SOUNDLY REJECTED. >> THE RECORDING ACADEMY UPDATE THEIR RULES EVERY YEAR FOR THE GRAMMY AWARDS. IT SAID SOMETHING TO THE EFFECT OF NON-HUMANS CANNOT BE ELIGIBLE FOR A GRAMMY AWARD OR SOMETHING THAT, AS NEW AS THIS TECHNOLOGY MIGHT FEEL, A.I. HAS BEEN USED IN MUSIC FOR

THEY REMEMBER SEEING A.I. BEING USED TO CREATE WITH THE INCEPTION OF VIRTUAL RAPPER FAN MECCA IS ARTIST, WHICH WAS SOME COMPUTER GENERATED BLACK KID WHO HAD THIS TYPE OF STYLE AND THE SWAG OF SO MANY BLACK KIDS. THEY ACTUALLY RIGHT NOW AND THE MUSIC THAT THEY CREATE. >> THE DIGITAL AVATAR WENT

VIRAL. SOCIAL MEDIA CLAIMING TO USE A.I. TO GENERATE SONGS EARNING RECORD DEAL BEFORE PUBLIC BACKLASH FORCED THE RECORD LABEL TO PULL THE DEAL. APOLOGIZING TO THE BLACK COMMUNITY FOR WHAT THEY SAY WAS INSENSITIVITY. >> YOU’RE USING THIS THING TO MAKE MONEY NEED TO ACTUALLY JUST HIRE SOMEBODY FOR REAL

I DON’T THINK THEY ENVISIONED, YOU KNOW, ARTIFICIAL INTELLIGENCE AT THE TIME THAT IT WAS MADE. THERE’S SOMETHING CALLED RIDER PUBLICITY, WHICH ALLOWS

PEOPLE TO PROTECT AND EXPLOIT THEIR OWN NAME, IMAGE, LIKENESS. RIGHT. SO SOMEONE’S VOICE THERE ARE NO FEDERAL RIGHT OF PUBLICITY LAWS. >> THEY’RE GOVERNED STATE BY STATE. UNIVERSAL MUSIC GROUP ASKED CONGRESS TO PLACE NEW REGULATION ON AI. THE GROUP ALSO ANNOUNCED A PARTNERSHIP WITH SOME OF ITS AND YOUTUBE IN ORDER TO CREATE

A FRAMEWORK WHEN IT COMES TO AI ,INCLUDING A SET OF PRINCIPLES THAT ALLOWS CREATIVITY WHILE PROTECTING THEIR INTERESTS. >> 100,000 SONGS. A DARING UPLOAD. IF YOU’RE A RECORD LABEL, YOU’RE LIKE, OKAY, SURE, MAYBE WE MAKE OUR OWN A.I. TRACKS, BUT WHAT ABOUT THE THOUSANDS OF ARTISTS THAT WE SAW ON A DAY

>> WERE YOU CONSCIOUS AS A CHILD AND AS A YOUNG MAN THAT YOU CAME FROM A LIFE OF PRIVILEGE? DID YOU THINK TO YOURSELF, WHAT KIND OF HUBRIS IS THIS BEING PRESIDENT SAID, BE A MAN? YEAH, THEY SAID THE MAN. THEY SAID, WE’RE NOT GIRLS BECAUSE YOU’RE A MORMON KID.

YOU’RE DRINKING OR SMOKING GROWING UP AS A CHILD. >> WHAT DID YOU THINK YOU WANTED TO BE? >> IN A FEW WORDS, WHO IS RON DESANTIS? I’M A BLUE COLLAR KID. I’M A VETERAN, I’M A HUSBAND, AND I’M A AND I’M SOMEBODY THAT HAS ALWAYS BELIEVED

IN AMERICA AND HAS BEEN ABLE TO BENEFIT FROM THE THIS COUNTRY HAS TO OFFER. >> RON AND KAREN STILL IN THE SAME RANCH THAT YOU GREW UP IN. WHAT WAS THAT CHILDHOOD LIKE? WELL, I’LL TELL YOU, YOU KNOW, MY FATHER IS FROM WESTERN PENNSYLVANIA. HIS FATHER WAS A STEELWORKER IN ALIQUIPPA.

MY MOM WAS FROM YOUNGSTOWN, OHIO, IS VERY BLUE COLLAR, SALT OF THE EARTH PLACE IN NORTHEAST OHIO. SO. SO THAT WAS KIND OF ME MORE OF A SALT OF THE EARTH TYPE OF KID . PARENTS HAD VERY STRONG VALUES. THEY WORKED REALLY TO BE ABLE TO GIVE ME OPPORTUNITIES

TO PLAY SPORTS AND DO THE THINGS THAT THAT I LIKE TO DO GROWING UP. SO YOU TALKED ABOUT SPORTS. YOU’RE A BASEBALL STAR FROM AN EARLY AGE. I WENT TO THE 1991 LITTLE LEAGUE WORLD SERIES, WENT ON TO BE THE CAPTAIN OF YALE’S BASEBALL TEAM. WHAT DID YOU LEARN ON THAT BASEBALL DIAMOND?

IS PERHAPS A SERVED AS A LIFE LESSON FOR YOU? WELL, THE THING IS, YOU COULD BE, YOU KNOW, BEST HITTER AND IN THE WORLD WILL STILL FAIL. 65, 67% OF THE TIME. RIGHT. I MEAN, YOU KNOW, IT’S JUST IT’S A GAME THAT THAT THERE IS FAILURE BUILT INTO IT.

AND YOU GOT TO LEARN TO KIND OF BOUNCE BACK FROM THAT. AND THAT’S SOMETHING THAT I THINK BASEBALL TAUGHT ME. NOT EVERYTHING IS GOING TO WORK OUT, BUT YOU JUST GOT TO KEEP UP. YOU ALWAYS GOT TO GET ANOTHER TIME AT BAT TO TRY TO DO BETTER .

HOW DID YOU MEET YOUR WIFE, CASEY? AND WHAT MADE YOU DECIDE SHE’S THE ONE? >> SO I WAS A LIEUTENANT JUNIOR GRADE STATIONED IN STATION MAYPORT, FLORIDA. SHE WAS A TV REPORTER. AND WE JUST HAPPENED TO BE AT A AT A DRIVING RANGE TOGETHER. WE WERE NEXT TO EACH OTHER

AND THERE WAS A BUCKET OF IN BETWEEN US THAT PEOPLE HAD NOT USED. SHE WAS LIKE HER BACK TO ME. SHE WAS KIND LOOKING OVER HER SHOULDER. I GOT SHE WAS CHECKING ME OUT. TRUTH IS, SHE WASN’T. WE USE THE AS A WAY TO KIND OF HAVE A CONVERSATION AND THEN

I JUST ASKED HER TO GO OUT AFTER THAT, AND WE STARTED DATING. I GOT MOBILIZED TO GO TO IRAQ, BUT I TOLD MYSELF, ONCE I GET THROUGH, I AM GOING TO POP THE QUESTION TO HER. SO WHEN I GOT BACK, I POPPED THE QUESTION. >> WE GOT MARRIED AND THE

REST IS HISTORY. YOU’RE A DAD OF THREE YOUNG KIDS. WHAT KIND OF FATHER IS RON DESANTIS. OH, MAN. I MEAN, IT’S PROBABLY THE MOST IMPORTANT THING I DO IN MY LIFE. AND I THINK MY WIFE FEELS THE SAME WAY. SO WE HAVE A SIX YEAR OLD DAUGHTER, FIVE-YEAR-OLD SON,

AND A THREE-YEAR-OLD DAUGHTER. SO THEY’RE NOW ALL IN SCHOOL. WE LOVE OUR KIDS VERY MUCH. AND WE DO SPEND TIME, THOUGH, IF THEY’RE ON THE ROAD WITH US, WE’RE DOING THE HOMEWORK WITH THEM. WE’RE HOME SCHOOL. AND WHEN THEY MISS A DAY OF SCHOOL, WE DO A LOT OF SPORTS WITH THEM.

THEY ALL LIKE TO SWIM. THEY ALL LIKE T-BALL AND BASEBALL. MY A BIG FOOTBALL GUY. SO WE LIKE DOING THOSE ACTIVITIES. WE TRY TO SPEND MUCH TIME TOGETHER AS A FAMILY AS WE CAN. AND SO WHY PEOPLE HAVE SEEN US ON THE BUS TOGETHER IN IOWA AND NEW HAMPSHIRE, THESE PLACES

,THEY’RE GOING TO CONTINUE TO SEE THAT. >> SWITCHING GEARS NOW, I JUST WANT TO DO A LITTLE LIGHTNING ROUND WITH YOU THAT WE’VE BEEN DOING WITH ALL THE CANDIDATES. BIGGEST MISCONCEPTION ABOUT YOU ? >> WELL, I THINK IT’S KIND OF YOU KNOW, I CAME FROM HUMBLE ROOTS. I THINK SOMETIMES PEOPLE SAY,

WELL, THE GUY GOT FROM YALE AND HARVARD LAW SCHOOL LIKE I WAS NOT BORN THERE. LIKE LIKE I WORKED HARD AND PUT MYSELF IN A POSITION THERE. BUT I WOULD NOT HAVE BEEN SOMEBODY THAT PEOPLE WOULD HAVE THOUGHT WOULD HAVE GONE THROUGH THOSE CIRCLES. >> FERRIS CRITICISM OF YOU.

>> YOU KNOW, PEOPLE WILL SAY THAT, YOU KNOW, I THE POSITION AND I KIND OF STICK WITH IT. I THINK MOST OF THE TIME, YOU KNOW, THAT IS THE RIGHT THING TO DO. AND I LIKE TO THINK THAT I THAT I AM OPEN TO NEW EVIDENCE. BUT I DON’T THINK YOU WANT

TO BE WISHY WASHY. SO IF ANYTHING, I OVERCORRECT AND JUST SAY, I’M PLANNING THE FLAG. AND THERE WE GO. BIGGEST STRENGTH IS THAT I’M STRONG, THAT PEOPLE KNOW THAT, THAT I WILL FIGHT FOR YOU AND THAT I’M WILLING TO TAKE THE ARROWS, WILLING TO TAKE THE CRITICISM TO DO WHAT’S RIGHT.

AND IF I TELL YOU THAT I’M GOING TO DO SOMETHING, YOU CAN TAKE THAT TO THE BANK. >> I’M GOING TO DO IT. BIGGEST WEAKNESS, I THINK SOMETIMES YOU GOT TO, YOU KNOW HOW TO APPORTION THE TIME. I THINK I FIND MYSELF JUST KIND OF GOING ALL OUT ALL THE TIME.

AND, YOU KNOW, SOMETIMES YOU DO NEED TO TAKE A STEP BACK FROM THINGS. I REMEMBER FIRST YEARS, GOVERNOR, NONSTOP LEGISLATIVE SESSION, THEN THE NEXT LEGISLATIVE SESSION BEGINNING OF 2020. MY WIFE AND I ACTUALLY HAD A VACATION PLANNED FOR THE END OF MARCH OF 2020. AND GUESS WHAT HAPPENS? COVID 19 HAPPENS.

AND SO THEN WE GET IN THAT AND THEN SOMETHING ELSE HAPPENS AND THAT’S JUST KIND OF BEEN THE NATURE OF IT. >> THE ROAD NOT TAKEN. >> SO I WANTED TO DO BASEBALL FOR TONIGHT FOR THE REPUBLICANS RON DESANTIS HAS A SWING LINE BASE HIT THE RIGHT FIELD

UNDERSTOOD TO BE A MAJOR LEAGUE PLAYER WAS TOUGH BUT I THOUGHT MAYBE ON THE FRONT OFFICE SIDE OR BUSINESS SIDE AND I KIND OF HAD THAT DREAM AND THEN 911 PUSHED ME TO THE MILITARY AND THEN THAT PUSHED ME MORE IN THE DIRECTION OF PUBLIC SERVICE. BUT I WAS JUST LIKE SOME OF

THE 911 FAMILIES, AND IT OBVIOUSLY HAD A TREMENDOUS EFFECT ON THEM BECAUSE THEY LOST LOVED ONES. BUT — BUT MY LIFE CHANGED AS A RESULT THAT BECAUSE OF THE CHOICES I MADE, HAD THAT NOT HAPPENED, I VERY WELL MAY HAVE BEEN ON A DIFFERENT. >> OUR THANKS TO GOVERNOR

THE WAR TORN TERRITORY. THIS COMES AS THE U.N. HUMAN RIGHTS OFFICE SAYS ISRAEL’S AIRSTRIKES ON A GAZA REFUGEE CAMP COULD AMOUNT TO WAR CRIMES. TODAY 335 DUAL PASSPORT HOLDERS, INCLUDING A HANDFUL OF AMERICANS, WERE ALLOWED TO PASS THROUGH THE RAFAH BORDER CROSSING INTO EGYPT. COMES AFTER THE DEAL WAS

HAMMERED OUT LATE LAST NIGHT. ISRAEL, EGYPT, THE U.S. AND QATAR WERE ALL PART OF THE NEGOTIATIONS. DUAL AMERICAN CITIZENS. RAMONA OKAMURA AND BARBARA DESIGN ARE IN EGYPT TONIGHT. SOME 400 AMERICANS AND 600 OF THEIR IMMEDIATE FAMILY MEMBERS ARE AMONG THOSE STILL WAITING TO LEAVE GAZA. A FLEET OF AMBULANCES WERE

ALLOWED IN TO TAKE DOZENS OF CRITICALLY INJURED PALESTINIANS. MANY OF THEM CHILDREN, INTO EGYPT FOR DESPERATELY NEEDED MEDICAL CARE. OUR CHIEF FOREIGN CORRESPONDENT, IAN PANNELL LEADS US OFF FROM ISRAEL TONIGHT. FOR THE FIRST TIME SINCE THE WAR BEGAN. HUNDREDS OF CIVILIANS WERE ALLOWED TO GET OUT OF GAZA INTO EGYPT.

AMONG THEM, AT LEAST FIVE AMERICANS. BUT THE BIDEN ADMINISTRATION AWARE HUNDREDS MORE U.S. CITIZENS ARE STILL STUCK IN GAZA WORKING NONSTOP TO GET AMERICANS OUT OF GAZA. AS SOON SAFELY AS POSSIBLE. >> AMERICAN DOCTORS RAMONA OKUMURA AND BARBARA ZIND AT THE CROSSING ARE AMONG THOSE US CITIZENS ABLE GET OUT TODAY.

ALSO AT THE BORDER, SOME OF THE YOUNGEST AND MOST VULNERABLE. THEY’VE WAITED FOR HOURS SOME DAYS FOR THIS MOMENT. OUR TEAM ON THE GROUND INSIDE GAZA AT THAT BORDER AS PEOPLE DESPERATELY SEARCH FOR THEIR NAMES ON AN APPROVED LIST HOPING TODAY THEIR NIGHTMARE ENDS. THERE WERE AMBULANCES TO RESCUING SOME OF

THE WOUNDED. SO MANY OF THEM CHILDREN. AND AS THE BOMBING AND FIGHTING CONTINUES FOR THE SECOND DAY IN A ROW, ISRAEL CONFIRMING IT STRUCK THE SAME REFUGEE CAMP THAT WAS HIT WITH SUCH DEVASTATING EFFECT TUESDAY, CLAIMING WAS A HAMAS STRONGHOLD. THE GAZA HEALTH MINISTRY, RUN BY HAMAS CLAIMING MORE PEOPLE

WERE KILLED AND OTHERS INJURED IN THE STRIKE. ISRAELI FORCES PUSHING DEEPER INTO GAZA NOW, RELEASING VIDEO SHOWING SOLDIERS HUNTING FOR HAMAS MILITANTS. THE IDF SAYING ITS TROOPS ARE NOW AT THE GATES OF GAZA CITY. DESPITE THE ADVANCE, HAMAS STILL ABLE TO LAUNCH ATTACKS. >> ISRAEL TAKE OFF STICKS.

THEY GOT STICKS. WE SAW IT FIRSTHAND. THAT’S THE SOUND OF THE IRON DOME SYSTEM. YOU CAN JUST THE AIR DEFENSE SYSTEM GOING INTO THE AIR TO TRY AND INTERCEPT AN INCOMING ROCKET IN CENTRAL ISRAEL. >> AND TONIGHT, UP TO 400 AMERICANS AND THEIR FAMILIES STILL BELIEVED TRAPPED IN GAZA ,INCLUDING LENA PERSICO

AND HER FAMILY. WE’VE BEEN FOLLOWING THEM FOR WEEKS AND WE’VE NOW LEARNED SHE’S JUST RECEIVED WORD FROM THE STATE DEPARTMENT THAT SHE MAY FINALLY BE ABLE TO CROSS INTO EGYPT TOMORROW. STILL EXHAUSTED FROM THE HORRORS OF THE LAST THREE WEEKS. >> I JUST CAN’T BELIEVE THIS. >> I JUST CANNOT BELIEVE

HOW UGLY THIS WORLD IS BECOMING. IT’S JUST HORRIBLE, UTTER DEVASTATION. >> OUR THANKS TO IAN FOR THAT. A CORNELL UNIVERSITY STUDENT HAS BEEN CHARGED WITH MAKING THREATS TO THE SCHOOL’S JEWISH STUDENTS. PATRICK DAI A JUNIOR AT CORNELL WAS CHARGED BY THE JUSTICE DEPARTMENT WITH MAKING EXPLICIT THREATS AGAINST JEWISH PEOPLE,

ALLEGEDLY INCLUDING THREATS OF AND MURDER. DIE THREATENED TO BRING AN ASSAULT RIFLE TO CAMPUS AND SHOOT JEWS. THE CHARGE FILED AGAINST DYER CARRIES A MAXIMUM OF FIVE YEARS IN PRISON AND A FINE OF UP TO $250,000. THE PUSH TO EXPEL NEW CONGRESSMAN GEORGE SANTOS HAS FAILED. SANTOS HAS MAINTAINED INNOCENCE

AFTER BEING INDICTED ON A SLEW OF FEDERAL CHARGES. AND JOINING US NOW FOR MORE ON THIS IS OUR SENIOR CONGRESSIONAL CORRESPONDENT, RACHEL SCOTT. RACHEL, THIS WAS A RESOLUTION SANTOS’S OWN PARTY BROUGHT FORTH AND IT FAILED. >> JUST EXPLAIN TO US WHAT HAPPENED, CONGRESSMAN GEORGE SANTOS WILL LIVE TO SEE ANOTHER DAY

HERE ON CAPITOL HILL. >> HE HAS SURVIVED THIS PUSH TO EXPEL HIM FROM CONGRESS. AND THIS WAS REALLY A PARTY LINE VOTE, FOR THE MOST PART, REPUBLICANS AND A OF DEMOCRATS THROWING HIM THIS POLITICAL LIFELINE HERE, EVEN HE FACES 23 FEDERAL CHARGES ACCUSED OF LYING ABOUT EVERY SINGLE ASPECT OF HIS LIFE.

RIGHT BEFORE THAT VOTE, SANTOS TOOK TO THE FLOOR IN AN ATTEMPT TO DEFEND HIMSELF. >> TAKE A LISTEN TO WHAT HE SAID. MUST WARN MY COLLEAGUES THAT VOTING FOR EXPULSION AT THIS POINT WOULD CIRCUMVENT THE JUDICIAL SYSTEMS RIGHT TO DUE PROCESS. THAT I’M ENTITLED. >> AND THAT POINT WAS UNDERSCORED BY MANY

REPUBLICAN WHO VOTED AGAINST THIS MEASURE TONIGHT, SAYING THAT THIS SHOULD OUT IN THE COURTS FIRST AND THEN THE HOUSE SHOULD MOVE TO. CONSIDER THIS ARGUING THAT IT SETS A DANGEROUS PRECEDENT, NOTING THAT ONLY FIVE MEMBERS OF CONGRESS HAD BEEN EXPELLED IN U.S. HISTORY OF THEM BEFORE THE CIVIL WAR, AND THE OTHER

TWO WERE CONVICTED OF CHARGES. >> LINSEY. SO IT FAILED TODAY. >> BUT COULD WE SEE THIS COME UP AGAIN? WE COULD DEFINITELY SEE IT COME UP AGAIN. AND I ASKED THAT QUESTION TO SOME OF THE REPUBLICANS THAT ACTUALLY BROUGHT THIS THE FLOOR TODAY, AND THEY DID NOT RULE THAT OUT AT ALL.

>> WE KNOW THAT IN ADDITION TO THE FEDERAL INVESTIGATION THAT IS ONGOING, THERE’S ALSO AN ETHICS INVESTIGATION UNFOLDING HERE ON CAPITOL HILL. THEY RELEASED AN UPDATE SAYING THEY WOULD HAVE MORE INFORMATION TO SHARE IN JUST A MATTER OF WEEKS. SO THOSE NEW REPUBLICANS COULD TRY TO FORCE THIS VOTE. >> ONCE AGAIN,

LINSEY RACHEL SCOTT FROM, THE CAPITOL FOR US. THANKS SO MUCH, RACHEL. TO NEW YORK NOW WHERE DONALD TRUMP JR. TOOK THE STAND AT FORMER PRESIDENT TRUMP’S CIVIL FRAUD TRIAL. PROSECUTOR WERE PRESSING HIM ABOUT WHAT HE KNEW ABOUT THE FAMILY BUSINESS AFTER HIS FATHER BECAME PRESIDENT. OUR SENIOR INVESTIGATIVE REPORTER AARON KATERSKY HAS

MORE. TONIGHT, THE FIRST OF DONALD TRUMP’S CHILDREN, THE STAND AS A WITNESS IN THE CIVIL FRAUD TRIAL THAT COULD TEAR THE FAMILY REAL ESTATE BUSINESS APART. >> I SHOULD HAVE WORN MAKEUP. DONALD TRUMP JR AND HIS BROTHER ERIC TOOK CONTROL OF THE TRUMP ORGANIZATION WHEN THEIR FATHER BECAME PRESIDENT.

>> THESE PAPERS ARE JUST SOME OF THE MANY DOCUMENTS THAT I’VE SIGNED TURNING OVER COMPLETE AND TOTAL CONTROL TO MY SONS. >> BUT TODAY IN COURT, TRUMP DESCRIBED HIMSELF AS JUST A REAL ESTATE BROKER. AND WHEN ASKED IF HE WAS FAMILIAR WITH BASIC ACCOUNTING PRACTICES OR WAS A MEMBER OF AN

ACCOUNTING, HE ANSWERED, SOUNDS EXCITING, BUT NO. JUDGE AND GORAN HAS ALREADY DETERMINED FINANCIAL DOCUMENTS SIGNED BY TRUMP. FRAUDULENTLY INFLATED HIS FATHER’S NET WORTH BY AS MUCH $2 BILLION. TODAY, TRUMP JR TESTIFIED HE WASN’T AWARE OF WHAT HE WAS SIGNING, SAYING, I LEAVE IT TO MY CPAS, ECHOING WHAT HE

SAID IN A SWORN DEPOSITION. >> WHOEVER WAS BRINGING A DOCUMENT, IF IT WAS MORE ACCOUNTING, IT WAS PROBABLY FROM ACCOUNTING. IF IT WAS MORE LEGAL, IT WOULD BE FROM LEGAL. AND I HEY, ARE WE OKAY SIGNING THIS DOCUMENT? DO YOU BELIEVE IT? TO BE HONEST AND ACCURATE.

AND IF THEY WERE OKAY WITH IT, THEY’D HAVE MUCH KNOWLEDGE THAN I’D EVER BE ABLE TO AMASS, AND SO I WOULD SIGN IT. TODAY, TRUMP JR TELLING THE JUDGE, I HAVE AN OBLIGATION TO TRUST THOSE WITH EXPERTISE. >> HE HAS ARGUED HE WAS NOT ON TOP OF THE COMPANY’S FINANCES.

I HAD NO REAL INVOLVEMENT IN THE PREPARATION OF THE STATEMENT OF FINANCIAL CONDITION, AND I DON’T REALLY REMEMBER EVER WORKING ON IT WITH ANYONE. >> BUT NEW YORK ATTORNEY LETITIA JAMES SAYS THAT’S JUST NOT TRUE, ARGUING TRUMP JUNIOR ERIC TRUMP WERE AWARE OF AND KNOWINGLY PARTICIPATED IN A YEARS SCHEME TO FRAUDULENTLY BOOST

THE BUSINESS’S BOTTOM LINE. WIN BETTER TERMS ON INSURANCE AND BANK LOANS ARE THANKS TO AARON KATERSKY. THE AVERAGE AMERICAN HOLDS ALMOST $8,000 IN CREDIT CARD DEBT AND THANKFULLY FOR MILLIONS THERE, THAT DEBT WILL NOT GET MORE EXPENSIVE TO HOLD ON TO AFTER THE FEDERAL LEFT INTEREST RATES UNCHANGED TODAY.

THE ANNOUNCEMENT FROM FED CAME AFTER A TWO DAY POLICY MEETING. AND WHILE THEY RULED OUT AN INTEREST RATE, THEY LEFT THE DOOR OPEN FOR A DECEMBER INCREASE. ALL TOLD, THE FED RAISED RATES 11 TIMES IN THE LAST YEAR AND A HALF, RAISING THEM TO THEIR HIGHEST LEVELS IN MORE THAN TWO DECADES.

NEXT TONIGHT, TO THE COMMERCIAL PILOT WHO ALLEGEDLY THREATENED HIS COPILOT WITH A GUN WHILE ON BOARD A DELTA FLIGHT. HE NO LONGER WORKS FOR THE COMPANY. BUT WE’RE LEARNING MORE ABOUT WHAT HAPPENED IN THE INCIDENT LAST YEAR, WHICH IS JUST NOW BECOMING PUBLIC. GIO BENITEZ HAS THAT STORY.

>> TONIGHT, A DELTA PILOT IS FACING CRIMINAL CHARGES AFTER PULLING A GUN ON THE CAPTAIN IN THE COCKPIT. A GRAND IN UTAH INDICTING FIRST OFFICER JONATHAN DUNN FOR ASSAULTING INTIMIDATING A CREW MEMBER BACK IN AUGUST 2022. HAPPENED AFTER A DISAGREEMENT OVER WHETHER TO DIVERT THE FLIGHT FOR A PASSENGERS EMERGENCY.

DUNN ALLEGEDLY WITH GUN IN HAND IS OF TELLING HIS COPILOT, THE CAPTAIN, THAT HE WOULD BE SHOT TIMES IF THE CAPTAIN DIVERTED THE FLIGHT. THE DEPARTMENT TRANSPORTATION’S OFFICE OF INSPECTOR GENERAL SAYS DUNN WAS AUTHORIZED TO CARRY A GUN IN THE COCKPIT THROUGH THE TSA. A FEDERAL FLIGHT DECK OFFICER PROGRAM THAT WAS PUT

IN PLACE AFTER 911. >> IT’S OF A LAYERED PROGRAM THE TSA HAS IN PLACE TO PROTECT THE TRAVELING. >> IT COMES JUST DAYS AFTER AN OFF DUTY ALASKA AIRLINES PILOT ,DAVID EMMERSON PLEADED NOT GUILTY TO 83 COUNTS OF ATTEMPTED MURDER FOR ALLEGEDLY TRYING TO CRASH A PASSENGER. THAT PILOT TELLING POLICE

HE WAS HAVING A NERVOUS BREAKDOWN AFTER CONSUMING PSYCHEDELIC MUSHROOMS. >> GIO BENITEZ JOINS US NOW. JIM, WHAT A SCARY SITUATION. WHAT ELSE CAN YOU TELL? WELL, LINSEY, DELTA SAYS THAT JONATHAN DUNN IS NO LONGER WORKING FOR THE AIRLINE, AND IF CONVICTED HE FACES UP TO 20 YEARS IN PRISON.

AND AGAIN, I JUST WANT TO MENTION THAT PROGRAM ABOUT ALLOWING GUNS IN THE COCKPIT. WHAT WAS IMPORTANT ABOUT THAT IS THAT IT WAS ADDED AS A AS ANOTHER LAYER OF SECURITY. AND SO THAT’S WHY THAT WAS SO IMPORTANT AND SO HERE YOU’RE LOOKING AT THIS AND A LOT OF PEOPLE IN THE INDUSTRY

ARE SAYING, WELL, THAT IS NOT WHAT IT WAS INTENDED TO BE TO THREATEN SOMEONE ELSE IN THE COCKPIT, LINSEY, NOT WHAT IT WAS INTENDED FOR AT ALL. ALL RIGHT. GIO BENITEZ, FOR US, THANKS SO MUCH TO YOU. AN UPDATE NOW TO AN EXCLUSIVE INTERVIEW WE BROUGHT YOU A FEW

WEEKS AGO ON THE DEATH OF A RETIRED POLICE OFFICER. NEWLY RELEASED BODY CAMERA VIDEO SHOWS THE MOMENTS AFTER HIS WIFE AND DAUGHTER ARRIVED AT THE SCENE. HE WAS KILLED IN A DEADLY HIT AND RUN IN LAS VEGAS AND TWO TEENS ARE CHARGED IN THE CRIME. OUR KAYNA WHITWORTH SPOKE

IT’S HARD TO GRIEVE WHEN YOU HAVE ANGER. >> THE RETIRED POLICE CHIEF’S FAMILY TELLING ME THEY’RE DEVASTATED. I’LL NEVER GET TO HAVE MY DAD THERE. HOW ABOUT, YOU KNOW, DADDY DANCE, HAVE HIM GIVE ME AWAY OR ANYTHING LIKE THAT. AND THAT. SUCH A SENSELESS LOSS. KAYNA WHITWORTH JOINS US NOW.

WHAT ELSE DO WE KNOW ABOUT, THE SUSPECTS IN THIS CASE? ALL RIGHT, LINSEY. SO THEY WILL BE HERE AS ADULTS. THEY ARE FACING MURDER CHARGES, AMONG OTHER IN WHAT AUTHORITIES SAY REALLY WAS A STRING OF CRIMES THAT NOW THESE SUSPECTS HAVE PLEADED NOT GUILTY. BUT LINSEY, AUTHORITIES TOLD ME

THAT THEY ARE LOOKING INTO THEIR PAST BECAUSE THEY SAID WHEN THEY WATCH THAT VIDEO THAT WAS CLEAR TO THEM, THIS WASN’T THE FIRST TIME THAT THEY HAD DONE SOMETHING LIKE THAT. ALSO, LINSEY, WE DID REACH OUT TO THE ATTORNEYS. ONE OF THEM DID GET BACK TO US AND EXPRESS ONE AND

CREWS USING CHAINSAWS NOT ONLY BATTLING FIRE, BUT ALSO THE STEEP AND RUGGED TERRAIN, RUSHING LIVESTOCK AND HORSES TO SAFER GROUND. >> AND LINSEY, AT LEAST ONE FIREFIGHTER WHO WAS INJURED WHILE BATTLING THIS WILDFIRE.

AN OFFICER WORKING FOR MOSCOW’S PROSECUTORS OFFICE WAS REPORTED TO, HAVE TEMPORARILY, TEMPORARILY ADOPTED THE CAT WHILE IT RECUPERATES FOR YEARS. OUR NEXT GUEST HAS WRITTEN ABOUT EVERYTHING FROM THE BLACK

LIVES MATTER AND GENDER EQUALITY TO NICKI MINAJ’S DISCOGRAPHY AND THE FAST FURIOUS FRANCHISE, ALL WHILE STRONGLY EXPRESSING HER OPINIONS. ROXANE IS A BEST SELLING AUTHOR AND A CONTRIBUTING WRITER FOR THE NEW YORK TIMES. SHE’S ALSO THE AUTHOR OF THE NEW BOOK OPINIONS A DECADE OF ARGUMENTS AND MINDING OTHER PEOPLE’S BUSINESS.

ROXANE JOINS US NOW. >> THANK YOU SO MUCH FOR JOINING US. SO LET’S JUST TAKE IT ACTUALLY BACK TO THE BEGINNING WHEN YOU SAID, YOU KNOW WHAT? I HAVE AN OPINION. >> DOGGONE IT. I WANT PEOPLE TO HEAR IT. YES, DEFINITELY. KNOW THE FIRST I’VE ALWAYS, I THINK, BEEN OPINIONATED,

BUT I DON’T KNOW THAT I’VE EXPRESSED THOSE OPINIONS. BUT MANY YEARS AGO, I READ A STORY IN THE “NEW YORK TIMES” ABOUT A YOUNG GIRL WHO WAS GANG IN CLEVELAND, TEXAS, AND THE REPORTAGE WAS ABOUT HOW THE TOWN WAS STRUGGLING. AND I THOUGHT, THAT’S INTERESTING, BECAUSE REALLY

I WOULD THINK THAT THE CHILD, THE HEART OF ALL OF THIS IS SUFFERING. AND SO I WROTE AN ESSAY CALLED THE CARELESS LANGUAGE OF VIOLENCE. AND FOR WHATEVER REASON, THAT ESSAY HIT A NERVE. AND FROM THEN ON, I STARTED WRITING MY OPINIONS INTO THE WORLD THAT YOU WRITE OFTEN

ABOUT RACE RELATIONS IN PARTICULAR. ARE YOU RIGHT TO BE BLACK IN AMERICA IS TO EXIST WITH THE PRESUMPTION GUILT BURDENED BY AN IMPLACABLE DEMAND TO PROVE OUR INNOCENCE. EXPLAIN WHAT YOU MEAN BY THAT AND WHAT YOU HOPE THAT PEOPLE TAKE AWAY ULTIMATELY FROM FROM THE BOOK AND THE OPINIONS

THAT YOU SHARE IN IT. YES. WHEN I WAS WRITING THAT PIECE, I WAS THINKING ABOUT THE WAYS IN WHICH BLACK PEOPLE ARE OFTEN CONSIDERED UNTIL PROVEN INNOCENT AND WHAT KIND OF BURDEN IS TO LIVE IN A WORLD WHERE YOU ARE PRESUMED GUILTY FOR EXISTING. AND THAT LEADS TO THINGS LIKE

POLICE BRUTALITY AND MURDER. AND IT IS. THE WORLD IS UNFAIR, OF COURSE, BUT IT FEELS LIKE THIS IS A LEVEL OF UNFAIR THAT NO ONE SHOULD HAVE TO TOLERATE. >> YOU HAVE YOUR OWN MASTER CLASS. AND IN IT YOU ENCOURAGE WRITERS NOT TO SHY AWAY FROM EXPRESSING THEMSELVES. AND SPECIFICALLY YOU SAY

YOU DON’T NEED TO BE BRAVE WHEN YOU’RE WRITING. YOU NEED TO ACKNOWLEDGE THAT YOU’RE TERRIFIED AND DO IT ANYWAY. WHY IS SO IMPORTANT? IT’S INCREDIBLY IMPORTANT BECAUSE A LOT OF TIMES I THINK PEOPLE WAIT UNTIL THEY HAVE JUST ENOUGH COURAGE FOR THAT PERFECT MOMENT. THAT PERFECT MOMENT IS NEVER,

EVER GOING TO COME. AND FOR MOST OF US, THAT MOMENT WHERE ARE COMPLETELY UNAFRAID IS NEVER GOING TO COME. AND SO YOU HAVE TO DEVELOP TOLERANCE FOR DISCOMFORT AND A TOLERANCE FOR BEING AFRAID, BUT FINDING A WAY TO DO SOMETHING ANYWAY. AND THAT’S HOW I’M ABLE TO PUT

ANY OF MY WORK INTO THE WORLD IS, OF COURSE, I’M TERRIFIED BY WHAT PEOPLE MIGHT SAY. THE LEVEL OF PUSHBACK, THE LEVEL OF TROLLING ON THE INTERNET. BUT I DO IT ANYWAY, BECAUSE THAT’S WHAT LOVE TO DO AS A WRITER. I LOVE TO WRITE, AND I INEVITABLY, AT SOME POINT

IN YOUR CAREER AS A WRITER, YOU HOPE THAT SOMEONE WILL READ YOUR WORK AND WHEN THEY READ, YOU CAN’T CONTROL THAT RESPONSE. >> HATE DOESN’T, HIDE. THAT’S WHAT YOU CALLED ONE OF YOUR OPINIONS THAT YOU WROTE BACK IN 2017 ON CHARLOTTESVILLE. AND I AM CURIOUS, COURSE, WE’RE TALKING ABOUT THE WHITE SUPREMACIST RALLY

IN CHARLOTTESVILLE, VIRGINIA. CURIOUS YOUR THOUGHTS ON THE RECENT RISE IN HATE CRIMES WITH REGARD TO ALL RACES, RELIGIONS. YES. WHENEVER SOMETHING IN THE PUBLIC SPHERE THAT WOULD PROVIDE PEOPLE COVER FOR BEING OPENLY RACIST, ISLAMOPHOBIC, ANTI-SEMITIC PEOPLE WILL TAKE THAT BECAUSE THEY KNOW IT’S WRONG AND THEY WANT SOME KIND OF PUBLIC

SANCTION IN ORDER TO BE ABLE TO DO IT. >> DO YOU SAVE YOUR OPINIONS FOR THE PAPER AND, FOR THE BOOK, OR ARE YOU THE PERSON AT THE DINNER TABLE WHO PEOPLE ARE LIKE, OH, ASK ROXANNE, WHAT DID SHE THINK ABOUT X? >> PEOPLE ARE OFTEN ASKING ME WHAT I THINK.

I THINK THAT I WRITE IN THE INTRODUCTION OF THE BOOK THAT SOMETIMES PEOPLE SEEM TO SEE ME AS AN OPINION VENDING MACHINE. BUT I GREW UP IN A VERY OPINIONATED FAMILY WHERE MY BROTHERS AND I WERE ENCOURAGED TO SHARE OUR OPINIONS ALL THE TIME, WHICH I THINK CONTRIBUTED

TO THE PLACE I’M TODAY, WHERE I GET TO WRITE MY OPINIONS FOR A LIVING. AND WHEN PEOPLE ASK ME THEIR OPINIONS IF I ACTUALLY HAVE AN OPINION, I’M MORE THAN HAPPY TO SHARE IT. BUT SOMETIMES I KNOW IT’S BETTER FOR ME TO LISTEN AND LEARN THAN TO OPINE. AND FORTUNATELY, THE OLDER

I GET, THE MORE I RECOGNIZE THE DIFFERENCE. >> ROXANE, WHAT A PRIVILEGE TO HAVE YOU ON THE SHOW AND TALK TO US. WANT TO LET OUR VIEWERS KNOW THAT HER BOOK OPINIONS IS NOW AVAILABLE WHEREVER BOOKS ARE SOLD. >> AND STILL TO COME, A POSSIBLE BREAKTHROUGH IN THE FIGHT, SKIN CANCER.

. HE SAYS IT WAS THOSE YEARS IN HIS NATIVE LAND THAT INSPIRED CREATION. >> I ACTUALLY SAW A LOT OF PEOPLE WHO WERE WORKING LONG HOURS UNDER THE HOT SUN. PEOPLE WORK REALLY LONG HOURS IN THE SUN AND THERE IS NO AWARENESS OR ANY SORT OF INFORMATION BEING SHARED

AROUND ABOUT HOW DANGEROUS SUN EXPOSURE REALLY IS. SO THEN WHEN THEY DO END UP DEVELOPING ISSUES LIKE SKIN CANCERS, IT’S REALLY JUST INCREDIBLY DIFFICULT FOR THEM TO BE ABLE TO AFFORD THE AFFORDABLE CURES. >> AND THE BEST PART OF HEYMAN SOAP IS JUST HOW AFFORDABLE IT IS.

IT ONLY COSTS AS LOW AS $8.50 IN COMPARISON TO MODERN DAY SKIN CANCER TREATMENTS, WHICH THE AVERAGE OF SKIN CANCER TREATMENT IS ALMOST $40,000. >> HIS SOAP WON THAT THREE CHALLENGE AND HE’S BEEN AWARDED $25,000, WHICH HE PLANS TO USE ON HELPING SECURE A PATENT, THE SOAP, AND TO HELP PAY FOR

COLLEGE. HE’S GOT PLANS FOR THE FUTURE BY 20 20. >> I ACTUALLY DID THIS BAR OF SOAP INTO A NONPROFIT ORGANIZATION WHERE I CAN PROVIDE AND ACCESSIBLE SKIN CANCER TREATMENT TO AS MANY PEOPLE AS POSSIBLE. SO IMPRESSIVE. I’M SURE WE’LL BE HEARING MORE FROM HIM DOWN THE ROAD.

BLACK FEMALE IDENTITY. SO EVERYTHING THAT I DO HAS A DEEPER MEANING TO IT AND IT’S SEEN IN THE COLLECTIONS THAT I CREATE. >> ARCHER DANIELS IS A FASHION DESIGNER WITH A PASSION FOR MAKING INCLUSIVE CLOTHING. NOW SHE’S COMING FORWARD AS A NEW ACCUSER WITH HER OWN STORY ABOUT WORKING AS PART

OF LIZZO’S, THE SPECIAL TOUR, A BLACK WOMAN IN THE INDUSTRY. WHENEVER I KIND OF SUFFER AN ABUSE, A INJUSTICE, I’VE KIND OF TAKEN IT ON THE CHIN AND KIND OF JUST GONE BACK TO WORK. >> WHILE SHE NEVER INTERACTED WITH THE STAR, SHE’S ACCUSING THE STAR’S TEAM OF RACIAL AND HARASSMENT.

I’M COMING IN TO WORK WITH SOMEONE WHO HAS PHYSICALLY ASSAULTED ME WITH SOMEONE WHO’S THREATENED ME, SOMEONE WHO IS NOT ALLOWING ME TO GO EAT WHEN I NEED TO EAT. >> I THINK IT’S EXTREMELY DAMAGING IN THE COURT OF PUBLIC OPINION BECAUSE OF THE IMAGE THAT ALL BELIEVED LIZZO TO BE.

>> DANIELS COMPLAINTS ARE PART OF A GROWING LIST OF LEGAL ACTIONS MOUNTING AGAINST THE POP STAR BACK IN JULY. THREE DANCERS FILED THE LAWSUIT AGAINST THE SINGER AND HER PRODUCTION COMPANY ALLEGING, RACIAL HARASSMENT, EVEN ASSAULT, PLUS CREATING HOSTILE WORK ENVIRONMENT. >> LED BY LIZZO, LIZZO IS DENYING IT ALL.

>> DEFIANT FOR ALL TO SEE FROM SHOPPING SPREES IN BEVERLY HILLS TO POPPING UP AT BEYONCE SHOW IN L.A.. FOR YEARS, LIZZO HAS BEEN KNOWN FOR BODY POSITIVITY AND SELF-LOVE, WITH SONGS LIKE ABOUT DAMN TIME. >> IT’S A FACT. I THINK VULNERABILITY IS. I THINK VULNERABILITY IS EXTREMELY POWERFUL.

THAT’S WHY, YOU KNOW, YOU SEE ME AT MY MOST VULNERABLE STATE. >> I WAS ALREADY A FAN OF HER MESSAGE ABOUT LOVE, ABOUT EMPOWERMENT, ABOUT BLACK WOMEN’S EMPOWERMENT. AND SO I WAS REALLY TO GET TO DESIGN FOR THIS WORLD STAGE WHERE SUCH A BEAUTIFUL MESSAGE WAS GOING TO BE DELIVERED EVERY NIGHT.

>> I DECIDED TO GO WITH THIS WHITE LACE. >> DANIELS HAD ALREADY PROVEN HER CHOPS ON PROJECT RUNWAY. >> BEING MY LOOK, COME DOWN THE RUNWAY, I AM LIKE, YES. GOD, HONEY, LIKE THIS. LATER, STARTING HER OWN LINE WITH BEAUTIFUL AND EVENTUALLY FINDING HER WAY TO LIZZO’S IN FEBRUARY.

>> I FEEL BETTER. BUT WITHIN HER FEW DAYS ON THE JOB, DANIELS SAYS THINGS WEREN’T QUITE AS BEAUTIFUL AS SHE’D HOPED. >> IN PARTICULAR, WITH AMANDA NOMURA, A SUPERVISING AGENT FOR LIZZO, SHE SAYS SHE WAS HELPING HER MOVE A CLOTHING RACK WHEN THINGS STARTED TO GO AWRY. >> SHE ROLLS OVER MY FOOT

WITH THIS REALLY HEAVY RACK. AND SO I KIND OF LIKE WENT SOME LIKE, WAIT A MINUTE, MY FOOT IS REALLY HURTING. LIKE, I NEED TO STOP. I NEED TO SIT DOWN. AND SO SHE PUSHES ME INTO THE RACK AND SHE SAYS, DON’T MAKE EXCUSES LIKE, TAKE THIS RACK.

>> ACCORDING TO THE CLAIMS IN THE LAWSUIT, DANIELS CLAIMS DUE TO BEING SHOVED SHE LOST HER BALANCE AND ROLLED HER ANKLE, WHICH LED HER TO WEARING MORE COMFORTABLE SHOES THE NEXT DAY TO MINIMIZE THE PAIN. SHE ALLEGES NOMURA DEMANDED THAT SHE CHANGE INTO TENNIS SHOES. >> AND SO I’M STUNNED BECAUSE

I’VE NEVER HAD ANYONE PUT THEIR HANDS ON ME, ESPECIALLY IN A WORKPLACE IN, OF ALL PLACES ON TOUR WITH LESS. THE ONLY THING THAT’S DIFFERENT BETWEEN HOW SHE INTERACTED WITH ME AND HOW I INTERACT WITH OTHER PEOPLE IS THAT I WAS A BLACK WOMAN AND SHE FELT LIKE SHE COULD GET AWAY

WITH TREATING ME THAT WAY. >> BUT DANIELS SAYS NOMURA WASN’T THE ONLY STAFF MEMBER WHO WAS UNPROFESSIONAL. SHE SAYS THE TOUR WAS AN OVERLY WORKPLACE, POINTING ONE ALLEGED INCIDENT IN A TEAM GROUP CHAT WITH LIZZO STAFFERS . >> YOU SAY IN THE LAWSUIT THAT THERE WAS A GROUP

CHAT WITH NEARLY DOZEN PEOPLE, MORE THAN 30 PEOPLE, AND THERE WERE TIMES WHAT WAS DISCUSSED MADE YOU UNCOMFORTABLE. >> THERE IS A PICTURE THAT WAS SENT TO ALL 30 PLUS OF US OF A PORN STAR WHO WAS AND HIS WAS . MANAGEMENT WAS IN THAT GROUP CHAT AS WELL. NOBODY REPRIMANDED THE PERSON

WHO SENT IT. >> DANIELS SAYS SHE WAS INSPIRED THE THREE YOUNG DANCERS WHO WERE ALSO SUING LIZZO TO TELL HER OWN ABOUT WORKING FOR THE STAR. >> WHEN I SAW THEM SPEAK UP, I THOUGHT THAT’S WHAT STRONG LOOKS LIKE. AND I WAS REALLY PROUD OF THEM BECAUSE I KNEW HOW TOXIC

THE WORK CULTURE WAS ON THAT TOUR FIRSTHAND. >> THE TWO LAWSUITS ARE NOW RENEWING SCRUTINY ABOUT LIZZO. >> WE REACHED OUT TO LIZZO AND HER ATTORNEY TO SIT DOWN WITH US. THEY DECLINED. DANIELS CLAIMS SHE HEARD A SENIOR STAFFER ON LIZZO’S TEAM MOCKING, THE GIRLS AND EVEN LIZZO HERSELF IN A

RACIST WAY. YOU SAY THAT AMANDA WOULD ALLEGEDLY MOCK LIZZO? >> YEAH, AMANDA WOULD REGULARLY MOCK LIZZO AND THE BIG GIRLS, AND SHE WOULD REFER TO THEM AS FAT OR JUST LIKE A BEVY OF, LIKE, REALLY INAPPROPRIATE THINGS USELESSLY LAZY. AND I TOLD HER, LIKE, THIS IS ACTUALLY REALLY OFFENSIVE.

AND, YOU KNOW, SHE JUST LAUGHED IT OFF. >> MOST OF YOUR ALLEGATIONS ARE AGAINST AMANDA. NO MORE. WHAT ABOUT LIZZO HERSELF, SINCE YOU NEVER INTERACTED WITH HER? HOW MUCH RESPONSIBILITY DO YOU THINK SHE HAS IN ALL OF THIS? >> I’M A BUSINESS OWNER MYSELF, AND I WAS SO SHOCKED

THAT LIZZO’S WORKPLACE WASN’T IN LINE WITH, WE KNOW AS THE STAR LIZZO. SO I CAN SAY IN MY OWN LIFE, I’M RESPONSIBLE FOR THE PEOPLE WHO WORK FOR ME AND WHO WORK ON MY PROJECTS. >> AND I THINK THAT EVERYBODY IS. ASHA WAS LET GO LIZZO’S TOUR

MANAGER JUST A FEW WEEKS AFTER JOINING THE TEAM. WE REACHED OUT TO AMANDA TO MORE OF HER COMMENT. SHE DIDN’T RESPOND. I THINK BEING FAMOUS PUTS A TARGET ON YOUR BACK, BUT I THINK ANYONE KNOWN ONLINE, IF THERE’S A PARASOCIAL RELATIONSHIP THAT SOMEONE HAS WITH THE PUBLIC, THERE’S ALWAYS

A RISK OF SOMETHING HAPPENING. >> LIZZO RECENTLY RECEIVED A HUMANITARIAN AWARD FROM THE BLACK MUSIC ACTION COALITION, WHERE SOME OF HER DANCERS, HER TALKING ABOUT HER POSITIVE IMPACT ON THEM. >■> FOR A LOT OF US, YOU KNOW, SHE WAS FIRST PERSON TO EVER BELIEVE US, ACTUALLY, JUST LIKE

SHOW US LOVE AND BELIEVE IN OUR TALENT AND OUR CRAFT. AND WE THANK YOU SO MUCH FOR THAT. THANK SO MUCH. >> THE SINGER LATER SAID IN HER ACCEPTANCE SPEECH, AND I’M GOING TO CONTINUE TO PUT ON AND REPRESENT AND CREATE SAFE SPACES FOR BLACK FAT WOMEN .

ON THE DAY THAT LIZZO RECEIVED THAT AWARD, A SPOKESPERSON FOR LIZZO SENT IMPACT A STATEMENT SAYING IN PART THAT I SHOULD DANIELS’S LAWYER TRIES TO SULLY THIS HONOR BY RECRUITING SOMEONE TO FILE A BOGUS, ABSURD PUBLICITY STUNT LAWSUIT WHO WAIT FOR IT, NEVER ACTUALLY MET, OR EVEN SPOKE WITH LIZZO.

WE WILL PAY THIS AS MUCH ATTENTION AS IT DESERVES. >> NONE. WOULD YOU EVER GO ON TOUR WITH ANOTHER? >> ABSOLUTELY. NEVER. REALLY? YEAH. I WANT A WORLD WHERE BLACK WOMEN CAN COME AND PERFORM AT THE HEIGHT OF THEIR CAREER, THEIR TALENT, AND NOT SUFFER THESE ABUSES

AND NOT BE SILENCED AND NOT BE TREATED UNFAIRLY. >> OUR THANKS TO JANAY. FOR MORE. THE FULL EPISODE OF LIZZO’S LEGAL LIMBO IS NOW STREAMING ON HULU HULU. >> SO WE CAN STILL SAY A IS LIKE ONE AND TWO MAYBE. >> AND THEN B IF HAIRS

ON THE BACK OF YOUR NECK ARE STANDING UP AND YOU’RE FEELING SENSE OF DREAD. >> SO AGAIN, WHAT WE’LL DO IS LET’S DRAW VENN DIAGRAMS. >> THAT’S BECAUSE THIS IS A MATH CLASS, NOT JUST ANY SOPHISTICATED GRADUATE LEVEL STUFF. >> A UNION, B COMPLEMENT. >> ALL OF IT MAKES UP

THE BEDROCK OF ARTIFICIAL INTELLIGENCE OR A.I. AND UNDERSTANDING IT IS HOME IS WHERE WE START. >> CONGRESSMAN BEYER. >> COME ON. IT’S WHY YOU BROUGHT YOUR BOOKS. YEAH. I THOUGHT YOU MIGHT BE INTERESTED AT 72 YEARS OLD WHEN HE’S NOT DOING HIS DAY JOB. THE VIRGINIA IS GOING

BACK TO SCHOOL AT GEORGE MASON UNIVERSITY TO STUDY A.I. LEARNING. >> IT WORKS. IT DID GET 100 ON THE LAST DOSE. AND HOW BEST TO REGULATE IT. >> I’M NEVER GOING TO BE A SCIENTIST, BUT I’M HELPING MAKE POLICY ON SOME REALLY IMPORTANT THINGS. >> DO YOU FEEL THAT BEFORE THIS

EXPERIENCE YOU KNEW ENOUGH ABOUT THE SCIENCE BEHIND THE STUFF THAT YOU WERE TASKED WITH REGULATING AND MAKING LAWS ABOUT? PROBABLY TO TO DO IT. OKAY. BUT NO, I DIDN’T NEARLY ENOUGH. >> WHAT’S BEEN CALLED THE A.I. REVOLUTION IS ALMOST CERTAIN TO CHANGE THE WAY WE LIVE AND WORK. BASICALLY, ARTIFICIAL

INTELLIGENCE IS A COMPUTER. ITS ABILITY TO DO WHAT A HUMAN DOES. SEE THINGS, MAKE DECISIONS, SPEAK MOVE. AND MOST IMPORTANTLY, SOMETHING POWERED BY A.I. HAS THE CAPACITY TO LEARN AND IMPROVE. LIKE THIS ROBOT DOG AT GEORGE MASON FIGURING HOW TO GET AROUND CROWDS. >> YOU SEE THE DRAGON OR

THE REALITY DRAGON STUDENTS MAY LIE BEFORE VERY EYES NAVIGATING REAL WORLD OBSTACLES. OH, MY GOSH. SO IT’S LEARNING WHERE THE BUILDING CARS ARE AND WHERE THE TREES ARE. >> BUT A.I. IS ALMOST ENTIRELY UNREGULATED, WITH NOT A SINGLE LAW FOCUSED ON ARTIFICIAL INTELLIGENCE. SO WE. >> TOO LATE TO REGULATE? NO.

NO. IN FACT, IF WE TRIED TO REGULATE IT EARLY, WE WOULD HAVE NO IDEA WHAT WE WERE REGULATING. EVEN NOW, IT’S REALLY HARD TO SAY, HEY, HERE’S I THINK WE SHOULD DO BECAUSE IT’S SO NEW. WE DON’T KNOW THE UPSIDES OR THE DOWNSIDES. >> I POINTED THE ALGORITHM

TOWARDS THE VOICE I WANT, BUT THE TIME TO ACT IS NOW, ARGUES JAKE AITKEN KLOSS, THE MIT GRADUATE, SHOWED US HOW TRIED TO FORCE HIS COLLEAGUES TO START PAYING ATTENTION II. >> I WROTE A PROMPT THAT I THEN INPUT INTO THIS APP ON MY PHONE. >> TURNING TO HIS PHONE

AND ASKING CHATGPT TO WRITE THIS SPEECH. >> THIS IS A CRITICAL STEP FORWARD IN AN ERA WHERE AI AND ITS IMPLICATIONS ARE TAKING PLACE. >> A.I. GENERATED SPEECH DELIVERED ON THE FLOOR OF THE HOUSE OF REPRESENTATIVES. >> THIS CAN’T BE SOCIAL MEDIA 2.0 WHERE POLICYMAKERS FOR 15 YEARS ALLOWED COMPANIES

TO GET BIG, TO GET RICH, AND TO NOT INTERROGATE THE EFFECTS ON SOCIETY ON POLITICS, ON THE MEDIA, THAT THEIR TECHNOLOGY HAVING. WE HAVE GOT TO BE AHEAD OF THIS WAVE OF INNOVATION, NOT BEHIND . >> ARKIN KLOSS WANTS TO DEMOCRATIZE A.I., MAKE IT ACCESSIBLE TO EVERYONE, NOT JUST SILICON VALLEY BEHEMOTHS

INVESTING TENS OF BILLIONS. >> BIG TECH IS, NOT GOING TO WRITE THE POLICY. AND THE AMERICAN PEOPLE NEED TO BE WRITING THE POLICY ON. IS THAT A FIGHT YOU CAN WIN? YES, IT’S A FIGHT THAT WE HAVE TO WIN. >> BUT CAN CONGRESS REALLY REGULATE SOMETHING? WE FOUND MANY MEMBERS ADMIT

NEITHER THEY NOR THEIR FULLY UNDERSTAND. >> THE SHORT ANSWER IS NO. THE LONG ANSWER IS NO. I DON’T THINK YOUR COLLEAGUES KNOW ENOUGH. >> NO, OF COURSE NOT. SOME COLLEAGUES KNOW MORE THAN OTHERS, BUT I THINK EVERYBODY HAS TO BE AWARE OF WHAT’S HAPPENING. >> WE HAVE SOME COLLEAGUES UP HERE.

THEY DON’T. >> A LOG IN TO FACEBOOK OR ZOOM. DO WE HAVE THE KNOWLEDGE SET HERE TO DO IT? >> NO. VIDEO GAME DESIGNER TURNED REPRESENTATIVE OF J. OBER DOHERTY IS THE ONLY MEMBER OF CONGRESS WHO COULD DOUBLE THE FIREPOWER WITH A MASTER’S DEGREE IN A.I.. NOW, THE CALIFORNIA FINDS

HIMSELF EXPLAINING WHAT A.I. IS TO HIS FELLOW LAWMAKERS. >> WHEN WE TALK ABOUT THE DANGERS OF AI, MOST PEOPLE KNOW ABOUT IT. IT COMES FROM MOVIES, AND THEY THINK DANGEROUS A.I. IS SOMETHING OUT OF THE TERMINATOR. EVIL ARMY OF ROBOTS WITH, RED LASER EYES TAKING OVER THE WORLD. >> HAVE YOU EVER HAD

A CONSTITUENT COME UP TO YOU AND SAY, CONGRESSMAN, I’M WORRIED ABOUT LOSING MY JOB ,TOO. I HAVE. YOU HAD THAT HAPPEN TO YOU YET? YES. AND WHAT DO YOU SAY TO THEM? I SAY YES. I’M WORRIED ABOUT THAT, TOO. >> BUT A.I., HE SAYS, HAS SIGNIFICANT LIFE CHANGING BENEFIT, TOO, LIKE STREAMLINING
