decline in older adults this is a very important step forward in looking at the research of nutrition and vitamin supplementation in an aging population when we're talking about cognitive decline dementia and Alzheimer's and this set of disord orders affects 50 million Americans the latest study in the American journal of clinical nutrition is one of three in a series researchers followed more than 500 adults ages 60 and older who took a daily multivitamin over a 2-year period we can say that th
ere might be hope that optimizing nutrition in this population whether it's from a diet or from vitamin supplementation May prevent cognitive decline and improve memory researchers say those who took the vitamins versus a placebo had memory equivalent to someone nearly 5 years younger and had cognition equivalent to someone 2 years younger still the results are raising skepticism because previous studies were inconclusive about the benefits of multivitamins there are a lot of studies out there t
hat do show that the claims put forth by the vitamin and supplementation industry are not evidence-based this is a multi-billion dollar industry that is not tightly regulated so if you are an older individual and you have a deficiency in some vitamins or minerals or perhaps that you don't have optimal nutritional status it may be a good idea to take a multivitamin but again this is a conversation that people should be having with their doctor it is important to note doctors say not every multivi
tamin may have the same results and multivitamins should not be viewed as a replacement for a healthy diet and exercise Andrew Andrea Allison thank you coming up Madonna sued over being late plus the college football player returning for his ninth year we'll explain how he can do it with so much at stake so much on the line more Americans turn here than any other newscast ABC News World News Tonight with David mure America's number one most watched newscast across all of [Music] [Applause] telev

dvisory committee is actually debating whether to recommend reclassifying potatoes as something other than a vegetable God I love these fries however this discussion doesn't seem to actually have to do with whether potatoes grow from the ground or not but instead how we eat them I've been on teen potato all along Wendy Wesley a registered dietician nutritionist says that many of us are forgetting that potatoes can be quite healthy in their natural state potatoes are a wonderful food and and and
should be included in the diet potatoes boil them mash them stick them in a stew that Hobbit gets it because when you boil or roast them especially with the skin potatoes can be a tremendous source of potassium and fibers it's just when we fry them they become oil sponges now the decision won't come until 2025 but if we do reclassify them according to the international fresh produce Association America would be losing its most popular vegetable I thought you were um trying to lose weight lay off
me I'm starving of course we know a lot of that has to do with fries so the question is with us schools still serving fries as a quote unquote vegetable and our country's adult obesity rate currently sitting at 40% could this reclassification be technically incorrect but possibly for the best if this reclassification pulls french fries from our Public Schools then let's do it something to think about anyway can we hear Dolly paron say Spud one more time Spud love her guys you know maybe the pot

City dangerously cold in the Midwest and plains and more ice concerns in Oregon and finally the debate over potatoes Danny new looks at whether the potato is really a vegetable every diet I've ever fell off of has been because of a potato even Immortals like Dolly Parton succumb to the power of a potato I never met a Spur I didn't like I love me some fries too but now the US dietary guidelines advisory committee is actually debating whether to recommend reclassifying potatoes as something other
than a vegetable God I love these fries however this discussion doesn't seem to actually have to do with whether potatoes grow from the ground or not but instead how we eat them I've been on teen potato all along Wendy Wesley a registered dietitian nutritionist says that many of us are forgetting that potatoes can be quite healthy in their natural state potatoes are a wonderful food and and and should be included in the diet po potatoes boil them mash them stick them in a stew that Hobbit gets
it because when you boil or roast them especially with the skin potatoes can be a tremendous source of potassium and fibers it's just when we fry them they become oil sponges now the decision won't come until 2025 but if we do reclassify them according to the international fresh produce Association America would be losing its most popular vegetable I thought you were um trying to lose weight off me I'm starving of course we know a lot of that has to do with fries so the question is with us schoo
ls still serving fries as a quote unquote vegetable and our country's adult obesity rate currently sitting at 40% could this reclassification be technically incorrect but possibly for the best if this reclassification pulls french fries from our Public Schools then let's do it something to think about anyway can we hear Dolly Parton say Spud one more time time SP I love her guys you know maybe the potato just needs a fresh starch a happy Friday breaking news in America this [Music] morning right

sory committee is actually debating whether to recommend reclassifying potatoes as something other than a vegetable God I love these fries however this discussion doesn't seem to actually have to do with whether potatoes grow from the ground or not but instead how we eat them I've been on Team potato all along Wendy Wesley a registered dietician nutritionist says that many of us are forgetting that potatoes can be quite healthy in their natural state potatoes are a wonderful food and and and sho
uld be included in the diet potatoes boil them mash them stick them in a stew that Hobbit gets it because when you boil or roast them especially with the skin potatoes can be a tremendous source of potassium and fibers it's just when we fry them they become oil sponges now the decision won't come until 2025 but if we do reclassify them according to the international fresh produce Association America would be losing its most popular vegetable I thought you were um trying to lose weight lay off me
I'm starving of course we know a lot of that has to do with fries so the question is with us schools still serving fries as a quote unquote vegetable and our country's adult obesity rate currently sitting at 40% could this reclassification be technically incorrect but possibly for the best if this reclassification pulls french fries from our Public Schools then let's do it something to think about anyway can we hear Dolly paron say Spud one more time Spud I love her guys no maybe the potato jus
t needs a fresh starch a happy Friday breing news in America this [Music] morning it's Friday January 19th and and even after the shooting was over they didn't know what to do with the victims we start [Music] here the justice department gives a scathing report on First Responders in Uvaldi Texas trapped in a room with an active shooter for over an hour we'll delve into the most damning details the Innocence Project usually defends people they think are innocent one of the investigators said the
moment he met him he thought Scott Peterson was guilty the story of convicted murderer Scott Peterson takes a bizarre new turn and if you were hoping this would all end with the functional Gaza government Benjamin Netanyahu says he doesn't even want that prime minister Netanyahu in a speech in response to this saying no way how a two-state solution is driving the wedge deeper between the US and Israel from ABC News this is start here I'm Brad [Music] milky oh my God they're running I don't know
why oh my God if I going to have you around to 7:15 old Cel Road have a one vehicle 77 minutes that's how long it took for First Responders to breach a door and take down a gunman in a classroom with fourth graders I'm in classroom 102 please hurry there's a lot of dead bodies please 77 minutes of waiting during one of the most deadly school shootings in American history it's been a year and a half almost 20 months since that fateful in Uvaldi Texas 19 students and two teachers were murdered at
Rob Elementary since then there have been investigations at the local and state level asking what those First Responders were thinking what their bosses were telling them there's compelling evidence that the law enforcement response to the attack at Rob Elementary was an abject failure and antithetical to everything we've learned over the last two decades since the callip mine Massacre the children's parents have begged for answers knowing that even if they'd never get get their kids back at le
ast they could demand accountability but yesterday for the very first time the federal government put out its own findings the Department of Justice has now released a report detailing what it calls cascading failures of leadership on and even before that day so let's go to ABC's Maria VA roale who spent a year going back and forth between her home and that small town of Uvalde she was there yesterday as attorney general Maya Garland told this community what was in this 600 page report Mara I me
an you've seen lots of different reports since that day and you've already describing what happened what was different about this you know I think anytime something like this comes out for this community it opens up those wounds once again um there is no obviously for the parents for the families there's no getting past what happened on that day in May of 2022 but I think there is a lot of validation that comes with this particular report because one it's coming from the top law enforcement agen
c in the country the Department of Justice and then on top of that you have you know attorney general merri Garland coming into town and spending hours with these families on top of all of the details that came out in the report yeah and let's talk about some of those details I mean where in the eyes of the justice department where did these First Responders fall short the sense we got from AG Garland and and the staff that came with him was that from the moment that the shooter walked in that d
oor there was a cascading amount of failures here failures in leadership and tactics in Communications in training and in preparedness from the moment he stepped in there um you know within minutes you had officers following behind him through the same door that the shooter went through and yet for whatever reason never engaged him as a result 33 students and three of their teachers many of whom have been shot were trapped in a room with an active shooter for over an hour as law enforcement offi
cials remained outside you had five other officers on the other side of the school same thing trying to get in the door and then retreating because two of them had received a hit from shrapnel the biggest moment that you know AG Garland talked about was the moment that school district police chief Arondo says we're not treating this anymore like an act of shooter this is a barricaded subject and the reason why that's so meaningful is because you're no longer trying to engage him you're trying to
negotiate with him it meant that officials asked for and waited for additional responders and Equipment instead of following generally accepted active shooter practice and moving toward the shooters shooter with this resources they had there were systematic failures that also included the idea that you didn't have a command center that was set up so who's making the decisions where is everybody meeting where is the Intel coming from this lack of a command structure exacerbated by communication
difficulties contributed to confusion among responders about who was in charge and how they could help one thing I did find interesting was during that press conference we heard about misinformation we knew of the for example the misinformation that was given by the Texas governor where he said everybody went in and did a brave job um but what we didn't know were were the very specific examples of local law enforcement local city officials and even the school district putting out on their social
media at 12:06 p.m. law enforcement posted on Facebook reassuring parents that quote students and staff are safe in the buildings close quote and the reality was that didn't happen and that wasn't happening and they never went back and corrected that misinformation and that added to the chaos yeah and you mentioned that you know the people who are being shot there in that classroom as parents are trying to figure out why is no one going in there then you have the people who are injured who do m
ake it out somehow and it sounds like there were even there was even confusion about how to deal with them you know we are learning more of that confusion and that chaos to the point where we we heard a victim for example was taken out of the actual shooting location put on a sidewalk and was never treated and then later died because they weren't quickly treated without appropriate precautions victims who had already passed away were taken to the hospital in ambulances well children with bullet
wounds were put on school buses without any medical attention all of those failures on that day came out in this report yeah and let's talk about these parents I mean what has been the reaction of these parents that you know you've spoken to and you've spoken to some of them several times over the over the last couple years they were looking for honestly they were looking for backup I think now the families are going to take this report and use it as they continue to fight for change um in schoo
ls and change on a larger scale for gun reform I hope that the failures end today and the local officials do what wasn't done that day do right by the victims and survivors of Rob Elementary after the Attorney General finished up his press conference the families did come out and Kimberly Rubio spoke Rob Elementary began the day an 18-year-old was allowed to purchase an AR-15 she still felt very frustrated knowing that these men and women had responded on that day and you know with training and
everything never went in and her daughter didn't have that kind of training um and she was an innocent victim um we also spoke one-on-one with Veron Mata who is the mother of Tess baata who lost her life on that day what is the right thing in your mind and in the minds of the families that were just standing behind us it's B assault weapons it's a big ask it is a big ask but my daughter's life is is worth asking that hey lastly Maria is there a chance that the leaders you know these are First Re
sponders these are members of law enforcement in some cases are there is there a chance that any of these people would even face criminal charges as a result of what we're now seeing our chief justice correspondent Pier Thomas said this I'm going to steal this from him he said there is no law out there that says you should go to jail for not being brave or for being competent at incompetent at your job and so the real struggle here for families is to wait again wait longer on the district attorn
ey here locally and to see whether or not she will file criminal charges against anybody involved cuz ultimately it's in her hands and as of right now she's also trying to digest this report that's where we kind of stand with all of this it's it's it's still wait and see for these families that said I think they are to some extent resigned to the fact that charges may not be filed uh which is why they continue their fight on a different level right it again just scathing report here and yet ques
tion is will we see action perhaps not at the federal level but at least at least we've got a sense of where the federal government stands here all right uh Mara vial there in yval thank you so much thanks again Brad you remember the name Scott Peterson Scott Peterson was arrested in 2003 Scott Peterson no longer on California's death row if that name rings a bell and you can't quite Place why he was convicted of murdering his wife an unborn child in an Infamous case Lacy Peterson was last seen
walking her dog about 10:30 on Christmas Eve morning we hold hope we keep praying Lacy Peterson who was 8 months pregnant at the time went missing right before Christmas in 2002 he saw her at 9:30 in the morning before he went fishing obviously regret now you know I could just decide to stay home she was later found dead on the shores of San Francisco Bay and after extensive searches prosecutors determined Scott Peterson in the throws of an affair had killed Lacy sinking her body with a homemade
concrete anchor I can only hope that the sound of Lacy's voice begging for her life and begging for the life of her unborn child is Hur over and over and over again in the mind of that person every day for the rest of his life when the movie Gone Girl came out many people said it bore a striking resemblance to this case the guy who just looks more and more guilty the more you look into him but in the case of Scott Peterson a jury actually found him guilty they said he did it we yesterday in a r
emarkable twist ABC News learned that the Los Angeles Innocence Project a chapter of the lauded National pro bono Legal Group has taken on Peterson's case ABC's Alex Stone broke this news exclusively Alex what this is a guy who's serving life in prison his case is seen as like this notorious example of a husband murdering his family in Cold Blood and this group thinks that he didn't do it well they say they're looking into it Brad they don't know yet this filing is asking for all kinds of things
from DNA testing to be done to what kind of evidence police had and that there are different scenarios that they want to look at that he has claimed for many years and his family has claimed for many years that they say shows that he did not commit the crime but we heard from one of the jurors who was on the jury and that juror saying he is guilty police have stood by saying he is guilty prosecutors have said that as well we the jury and the above entitled cause find the defendant Scot Le Peter
son guilty of the crime of murder of lacy Denise Peterson he was tried and convicted it was a long trial I covered it it was my started ABC News back in 2004 well I took the day off to come down because I I figured there'd be a verdict today the whole world was watching it at that time it was one of those kinds of [Music] Trials and he was found guilty by that jury and he's tried several times in the the California courts to either get a new trial or get released from prison every time the court
s have said no this is a new attempt but to have the Innocence Project of LA that name behind it that brings a lot of weight and and they're saying they want to see the evidence yeah what are they examining because I mean you got your hands on this court filing that they made that you know no one else had seen until you what are they seeing that so many other people apparently haven't seen over the years this has been litigated this is a big Court filing it's about 800 Pages all of the everythin
g that they submitted to the the court we heard about these back during the trial and it was said that they had been investigated and ruled out we have heard about them in every every appeal that he has done and every attempt to get a new trial which by the way he was on death row at San Quenton until a couple of years ago when he went to court and said that there had been misconduct the Court ruling potential jurors for the death penalty phase were improperly dismissed after saying they disagre
ed with the death penalty but would be willing to impose it so right now he's in in prison without parole but they are saying a couple of things they say there is evidence that they want to look at involving a burglary that happened across the street from Scott and Lacy Peterson's home around the time of her disappearance maybe even the same day maybe even within hours police said they investigated it they arrested a couple of guys for it was not related to The Disappearance of lacy Peterson the
y're not so sure they want to see dnaa from that scene the other thing there were some in the the neighborhood who say they saw somebody on a bicycle riding around around the time of her disappearance they want to know what police found out there other Witnesses claimed that people saw 70s looking van driving by the the home several times and then a couple of days really only about a day later on Christmas day there was a burned out van with blood in it found near the Modesto Airport they want t
o know more about that did they DNA test that blood whose van was that what was the deal with that van was it the same one in the neighborhood the Innocence Project is saying all of this raises questions that they feel police ignored or did not fully investigate or were so focused in on Scott Peterson as her suspect one of the investigators said the moment he met him he thought Scott Peterson was guilty well Alex like like you said the weight that the name the Innocence Project carries right bec
ause this group usually takes on the cases of people who don't have the means to defend themselves right or who never got the media Spotlight that they might have needed to move the needle to get their case taken more seriously can they say the same about Scott Peterson like why them and why this guy well this is really interesting because they don't want to make any comment other than saying that they do now represent him and they're investigating his claims of actual innocence is how they put
it but they said they'll have no other comment he was a vilified character in The the country in 2004 2005 okay first of all I met Scott Peterson November 20th 2002 he was seen as this evil guy who had been cheating on his wife wanted her out of the picture to be with Amber fry with the his mistress Scott told me he was not married we did have a romantic relationship and then she found out that he was accused of killing his wife there was so much against him did your wife find out about it I tol
d my wife when in um early December they've got to know with the Innocence Project that this is going to be a controversial one no matter which way it goes and there's a chance that the court is going to look at this and say no way it's going to be up to a judge to say okay we're going to have a hearing on it or no thank you that that we've tried this he was convicted there have been numerous hearings that California Supreme Court has gotten involved in his case and he has not been freed he has
not gotten a new trial and we're done with it uh good chance though they're going to say prosecutors tell us what what you want us to do and then maybe hold a hearing on it and then we'll see where it goes yeah I was good to say so so not a given that he gets a new trial or anything but that clearly is what the Innocence Project will be looking for no I mean the court could say no way yeah the court could deny him all right Alex Stone they're in La covering this case what 20 years later thank yo
u so much you got it thanks Brad since the war in the Middle East began a few months ago the biggest concern for American officials was making sure this didn't turn into something wider because Israel's got lots of enemies militant groups across the region have allegiances to various countries so it wouldn't take a lot for Nations to be forced to respond to attacks which then incur more attacks and then spiral out of control well in the last 24 hours the US has launched new strikes against houth
i rebels in Yemen Pakistan is responded to strikes from Iran and Israel's leader says he doesn't think Palestinians should ever have a government of their own in Gaza how's that for keeping everything simple let's go to ABC's foreign correspondent Patrick Revel who's in Tel Aviv in Israel right now Patrick first of all can you explain these us attacks on the houthis to me cuz we hit like dozens of targets a couple weeks ago right that if that was supposed to them why are we striking them again y
eah hi Brad I mean this is actually the fifth round of strikes that we've just seen against the houthis by the US um and this time the Pentagon is saying that they were destroying houthi missiles on the launches these missiles on launch rails presented an imminent threat to Merchant vessels and US Navy ships in the region and could have been fired at any time despite these pretty significant pretty broad strikes that we've seen involving now dozens of Cru missile and air strikes by the US the ho
uthis are still able to launch missiles at ships in the Red Sea the US and the International Community call on the houthis to cease their unlawful attacks on commercial shipping vessels and since the strikes we've seen the houthis successfully strike at least one American operated and owned cargo ship and frankly the houthis are making clear that they have no intention of stopping for now um the leader of the houthis has said that this is actually a great blessing from God that they are now in a
conference with the us we've said from the outset that we did not think that the attacks would stop after our first military strike that we would have to take further action you've seen us take further action and we're committed to to continuing to do so the other thing is that many experts believe and worry that the US to a certain extent may even be kind of playing into the hands of Iran and the houthis who right now want to bring the us more and more into this confrontation and to pull Israe
l and the US deeper and deeper into this confrontation but still stopping short of a full-scale war because it saps the US and Israel's Global influence and just it sort of Death By A Thousand Cuts is the kind of strategy that that's what we're hearing from from most experts when they look at this and frankly if there's one thing we can say we are not further away from a regional War than we were a few days ago well and then I mean if we're talking about you know strikes against militant groups
who are also kind of representing countries but kind of not Iran itself the Iranian government admitted to firing missiles at Pakistan now Pakistan is firing missiles back at Iran I mean how bad could this get yeah I think this caught many people by surprise even you know close watches of the region I think we very surprised to hear that Pakistan was now involved in this widening conflict and simply Iran fired a number of missiles into Pakistan targeting what it said were militant groups who it
blamed for a terror attack a very deadly terror attack a few weeks ago in Iran and Pakistan has responded um by firing its own missiles into Southern Iran in the Border again saying it is targeting separatist groups inside Iran Pakistan undertook a series of Highly coordinated and specifically targeted Precision military strikes against terrorist hideouts and both sides saying basically they're not targeting each other but targeting militant groups but obviously it's okay if you're just targetin
g terrorists in the other country but you still ing into the other country yeah well yes although at the same time Pakistan very much said this is not okay this is absolutely not okay it's a clear violation of international law but ultimately Pakistan in particular but also Iran both sides have said we don't want this to escalate we'd like to deescalate it now and so this just part of this frankly extraordinary exchange of missiles that we're seeing in the Middle East right now where everyone is
essentially communicating with missiles but still staying below the level of a fullscale war War but of course as that obviously sounds it's extremely dangerous hey and let's talk about one other thing with Israel that's happened in the last 24 hours and this might be confusing to a lot of Americans because we always hear about this idea of a two-state solution right because currently we talk about Israel the country and then we talk about the Palestinians we we rarely say Palestine because it'
s not recognized by the us as a country of Palestine with a recognized government even if they're represented the United Nations that's not how the US sees it right then yet we always talk about the day when Gaza might be you know just another one of these countries now Benjamin nyaho is saying he doesn't see himself ever recognizing Gaza as its own country I mean is that the death of the two-state solution as we know it what's going on so I don't think this is the death of the two-state solutio
n but I think the comments we've heard from Benjamin Netanyahu are very very significant I tell this truth to our American friends and I also stop the attempt to impose a reality on us that would harm Israel's security basically they're significant because the US in the last week and frankly for the last several weeks but particularly in the last week has been pushing alongside key Arab states to try and put forward something that's like the general outline of a possible peace plan and it would
see Saudi Arabia normalize relations with Israel in exchange for Israel promising to take concrete steps towards a Palestinian State M and this is the US's sort of Grand Vision for how to not only end this war but to bring something good out of it and finally end this Palestinian Israeli conflict that has just plagued the world for so long but the problem is we've heard directly from prime minister Netanyahu in a speech in response to this saying no way saying I don't want to do this I won't do
this in any future Arrangement settlement or no settlement Israel needs security control over all territory west of the Jordan and that means it's impossible really for there to be a fullscale Palestinian state in that in that case and so what we're seeing here really is a growing very severe gap between what the US increasingly wants after this war and what Benjamin Netanyahu wants but it matters because it also suggests how the current Israeli government sees the war and how the US sees it and
the current Israeli government wants to keep going wants to keep going for months more it doesn't really care ultimately if there continue to be large numbers of Civilian deaths the main goal is to destroy Hamas and to get their hostages back and the US government on the other hand wants them to start wrapping this up because it's inflicting enormous damage on the US standing in the world and Israel standing in the world and so we're increasingly seeing this confrontation and so the big questio
n now is what is the Biden Administration going to do when it has a partner like Benjamin Netanyahu who does does not want to compromise with the US and seems to have fundamentally different views on how this war should go and what should come after yeah and I should mention Israel and Hamas actually struck a deal to send medicines to these Israeli hostages and under the terms of the supply run for every one box that goes to the hostages a thousand boxes of medicine go to the broader Palestinian
population which is just a reminder of how many lives hang in the balance in all this Patrick reval there in Tel Aviv thank you so much thanks br and one last thing for a lot of Americans the snow drought is over this week several regions saw their first snow in a year for New York and Washington it was the first snowfall in multiple years well think about what's happened between then and now lots of drivers bought their first electric cars which this week led to scenes like this we caught up w
ith many who say they were looking to get to a charging station when they got to to this one at 95th in Western and Evergreen Park the stations weren't working remember electric cars don't charge instantaneously even a Tesla Supercharger takes an hour to go from 0 to 100% And in cold weather it can be a lot slower than that and you can look around here every single car is a Tesla car full with the Tesla cars this whole parking lot when temperatures go way below freezing like what we saw in the m
idwest a few things happen one is Chargers don't work as well batteries don't hold the charge as well plus your car uses more energy to run all of its systems and we're waiting waiting waiting for over an hour and it's unfortunate that all these cars are sitting just dead in the spots so in Chicago people recently found themselves close to empty only to drive up to superchargers with huge lines of cars taking hours at a time to get full after a while some people had to abandon their cars in line
rather than be stranded in subzero temps I think just someone needs to come out here and make sure everything's okay cuz it's not okay car experts said this should not tell you electric cars don't work or that they're a bad investment what it does tell you is that just like with every other emerging technology we are still working out the Kinks like for 100 years you had to heat up your gas engine for a while for it to work in cold weather until we finally replaced carburetors with fuel injecti
on systems that's a recent development batteries are advancing at a much faster rate we're just in this weird transition moment we think these are isolated incidents but we are looking into them and seeing where we can make an impact in fact the Biden White House was asked this week whether these crazy stories mean more Chargers need to be made available smash cut to this morning the administration is out with a new plan to build more charging stations stuff is happening Tesla has actually creat
ed a tip sheet for winter driving which includes stuff I would never have thought of for instance just the act of warming up the battery in the morning uses a significant amount of battery power so they got this feature called scheduled departure where while you're waking up it'll be pre-warming the battery while the car's still plugged in but then there's a stuff that just seems unnecessary Tesla designed these really Sleek door handles that actually fold into the car body itself well then when
there's a layer of ice on the car guess what you can't pull the door handle anymore there's nothing to grab onto and as the snow remains on the ground it's a good reminder while cars are smarter than ever Mother Nature will outsmart you if you're not careful shout out to Friend of the Pod and producer sister Kristen TZ who's Apparently one of these people who are driving around this week desperately realizing oh no all the public Chargers are full I got to get home cuz when it's freezing and yo

laims a daily multivitamin could be the answer ABC's Alison kasic has more my feeling is that I don't need them or do we a new study shows taking a multivitamin every day could help improve memory for everyday events and prevent cognitive decline in older adults this is a very important step forward and look at the research of nutrition and vitamin supplementation in an aging population when we're talking about cognitive decline dementia and Alzheimer's and this set of disorders affects 50 milli
on Americans the latest study in the American journal of clinical nutrition is one of three in a series researchers followed more than 500 adults ages 60 and older who took a daily multivitamin over a 2-year period we can say that there might be hope that op optimizing nutrition in this population whether it's from a diet or from vitamin supplementation May prevent poog Decline and improve memory researchers say those who took the vitamins versus a placebo had memory equivalent to someone nearly
5 years younger and had cognition equivalent to someone 2 years younger still the results are raising skepticism because previous studies were inconclusive about the benefits of multivitamins there are a lot of studies out there that do show that the claims put forth by the vitamin and supplementation industry are not evidence-based this is a multi-billion doll industry that is not tightly regulated so if you are an older individual and you have a deficiency in some vitamins or minerals or perh
aps that you don't have optimal nutritional status it may be a good idea to take a multivitamin but again this is a conversation that people should be having with their doctor it is important to note doctors say not every multiv vitamin may have the same results and multivitamins should not be viewed as a replacement for a healthy diet and exercise Andrew Andrea Allison thank you coming up Madonna sued over being late plus the college football player returning for his n9th year we'll explain how

off of has been because of a potato even Immortals like Dolly Parton succumb to the power of a potato I never met a spur I didn't like I love me some fries too but now the US dietary guidelines advisory committee is actually debating whether to recommend reclassifying potatoes as something other than a vegetable God I love these fries however this discussion doesn't seem to actually have to do with whether potatoes grow from the ground or not but instead how we eat them I've been on Team potato
all along Wendy Wesley a registered dietitian nutritionist says that many of us are forgetting that potatoes can be quite healthy in their natural state potatoes are a wonderful food and and and should be included in the diet potatoes boil them mash them stick them in a stew that Hobbit gets it because when you boil or roast them especially with the skin potatoes can be a tremendous source of potassium and fibers it's just when we fry them they become oil sponges now the decision won't come unti
l 2025 but if we do reclassify them according to the International fresh produce Association America would be losing its most popular vegetable I thought you were um trying to lose weight off me I'm starving of course we know a lot of that has to do with fries so the question is with us schools still serving fries as a quote unquote vegetable and our country's adult obesity rate currently sitting at 40% could this reclassification be technically incorrect but possibly for the best if this reclas
sification pulls from french fries from our Public Schools then let's do it something to think about anyway can we hear Dolly paron say Spud one more time SP I love her guys you know maybe the potato just needs a fresh starch a happy Friday breing news in America this [Music] morning it's Friday January 19th and even after the shooting was over they didn't know what to do with the victims we start [Music] here the justice department gives a scathing report on First Responders in Uvaldi Texas tra

st deadly School shootings in American history it's been a year and a half almost 20 months since that fateful day in Uvaldi Texas 19 students and two teachers were murdered at Rob Elementary and since then there have been investigations at the local and state level asking what those First Responders were thinking what their bosses were telling them there's compelling evidence that the law enforcement response to the attack at Rob Elementary was an abject failure and antithetical to everything w
e've learned over the last two decades since since the call of mine Massacre the children's parents have begged for answers knowing that even if they'd never get their kids back at least they could demand accountability but yesterday for the very first time the federal government put out its own findings the Department of Justice has now released a report detailing what it calls cascading failures of leadership on and even before that day so let's go to ABC's Mara VA roale who spent a year going
back and forth between her home and that small town of Uvalde she was there yesterday as a attorney general mayri Garland told this community what was in this 600 page report Mara I mean we've seen lots of different reports since that day and you've already describing what happened what was different about this you know I think any time something like this comes out for this community it opens up those wounds once again um there is no obviously for the parents for the families there's no gettin
g past what happened on that day in May of 20122 but I think there is a lot of validation that comes with with this particular report because one it's coming from the top law enforcement agency in the country the Department of Justice and then on top of that you have you know attorney general Meritt Garland coming into town and spending hours with these families on top of all of the details that came out in the report yeah and let's talk about some of those details I mean where in the eyes of th
e justice department where did these First Responders fall short the sense we got from AG Garland and and the staff that came with him was that from the moment that the shooter walked in that door there was a cascading amount of failures here failures in leadership in tactics in Communications in training and in preparedness from the moment he stepped in there um you know within minutes you had officers following behind him through the same door that the shooter went through and yet for whatever
reason never engaged him as a result 33 students and three of their teachers many of whom have been shot were trapped in a room with an active shooter for over an hour as law enforcement officials remained outside you had five other officers on the other side of the school same thing trying to get in the door and then retreating because two of them had received a hit from shrapnel the biggest moment that you know a Garland talked about was the moment that school district police chief Arondo say
s we're not treating this anymore like an active shooter this is a barricaded subject and the reason why that's so meaningful is because you're no longer trying to engage him you're trying to negotiate with him it meant that officials asked for and waited for additional responders and Equipment instead of following generally accepted active shooter practice and moving toward the shooters shooter with the resource they had there were systematic failures that also included the idea that you didn't
have a command center that was set up so who's making the decisions where is everybody meeting where is the Intel coming from this lack of a command structure exacerbated by communication difficulties contributed to confusion among responders about who was in charge and how they could help one thing I did find interesting was during that press conference we heard about misinformation we knew of the for example the misinformation that was given by the Texas governor where he said everybody went
in and did a brave job um but what we didn't know were were there very specific examples of local law enforcement local city officials and even the school district putting out on their social media at 12:06 p.m. law enforcement posted on Facebook reassuring parents that quote students and staff are safe in the buildings close quote and the reality was that didn't happen and that wasn't happening and they never went back and corrected that misinformation and that added to the chaos yeah and you m
entioned that you know the people who are being shot they're in that classroom as parents are trying to figure out why is no one going in there then you have the people who are injured who do make it out somehow and it sounds like there were even there was even confusion about how to deal with them you know we are learning more of that confusion and that chaos to the point where we we heard a victim for example was taken out of the actual shooting location put on a sidewalk and was never treated
and then later died because they weren't quickly treated without appropriate precautions victims who had already passed away were taken to the hospital in ambulances well children with bullet wounds were put on school buses without any medical attention all of those failures on that day came out in this report yeah and let's talk about these parents I mean what has been the reaction of these parents that you know you've spoken to and you've spoken to some of them several times over the over the
last couple years they were looking for honestly they were looking for backup I think now the families are going to take this report and use it as they continue to fight for change um in schools and change on a larger scale for gun reform I hope that the failures end today and the local officials do what wasn't done that day do right by the victims and survivors of Rob Elementary after the Attorney General finished up his press conference the families did come out and Kimberly Rubio spoke Rob E
lementary began the day an 18-year-old was allowed to purchase an AR-15 she still felt very frustrated knowing that these men and women had responded on that day and you know with training and everything never went in and her daughter didn't have that kind of training um and she was an innocent victim um we also spoke one-on-one with Veron mat who is the mother of Tess maata who lost her life on that day what is the right thing in your mind and in the minds of the families that were just standin
g behind us man assault weapons it's a big ask it is a big ask but my daughter's life is is worth asking that hey lastly Maria is there a chance that the leaders you know these are first respons ERS these are members of law enforcement in some cases are there is there a chance that any of these people would even face criminal charges as a result of what we're now seeing our chief justice correspondent uh Pierre Thomas said this I'm going to steal this from him he said there is no law out there t
hat says you should go to jail for not being brave or for being competent at incompetent at your job and so the real struggle here for families is to wait again wait longer on the district attorney here locally and to see whether or not she will file criminal charges against anybody involved CU ultimately it's in her hands and as of right now she's also trying to digest this report that's where we kind of stand with all of this it's it's it's still wait and see for these families that said I thi
nk they are to some extent resigned to the fact that charges may not be filed uh which is why they continue their fight on a different level right again just scathing report here and yet the question is will we see action perhaps not at the federal level but at least at least we've got a sense of where the federal government stands here all right uh Mara vaale there in yval thank you so much thanks again Brad you remember the name Scott Peterson Scott Peterson was arrested in 2003 Scott Peterson
no longer on California's death row if that name rings a bell and you can't quite Place why he was was convicted of murdering his wife an unborn child in an Infamous case Lacy Peterson was last seen walking her dog about 10:30 on Christmas Eve morning we hold hope we keep praying Lacy Peterson who was 8 months pregnant at the time went missing right before Christmas in 2002 he saw her at 9:30 in the morning before he went fishing obviously regret now you know I could just decide to stay home sh
e was later found dead on the shores of San Francisco Bay and after extensive searches prosecutors determined Scott Peterson in the throws of an affair had killed Lacy sinking her body with a homemade concrete anchor I can only hope that the sound of Lacy's voice begging for her life and begging for the life of her unborn child is heard over and over and over again in the mind of that person every day for the rest of his life when the movie Gone Girl came out many people said it bore a striking
resemblance to this case the guy who just looks more and more guilty the more you look into him but in the case of Scott Peterson a jury actually found him guilty they said he did it we yesterday in a remarkable twist ABC News learned that the Los angelis Innocence Project a chapter the lauded National pro bono Legal Group has taken on Peterson's case ABC's Alex Stone broke this news exclusively Alex what this is a guy who's serving life in prison his case is seen as like this notorious example
of a husband murdering his family in Cold Blood and this group thinks that he didn't do it well they say they're looking into it Brad they don't know yet this filing is asking for all kinds of things from DNA testing to be done to what kind of evidence police had and that there are different scenarios that they want to look at that he has claimed for many years and his family has claimed for many years that they say shows that he did not commit the crime but we heard from one of the jurors who w
as on the jury and that juror saying he is guilty police have stood by saying he is guilty prosecutors have said that as well we the jury in the above entitled C caus by the defendant Scott Le Peterson guilty of the crime of murder of lacy Denise Peterson he was tried and convicted it was a long trial I covered it it was my started ABC News back in 2004 well I took the day off to come down because I I figured there'd be a verdict today the whole world was watching it at that time it was one of t
hose kinds of [Music] Trials and he was found guilty by that jury and he's tried several times in the the California courts to either get a new trial or get released from prison and every time the courts have said no this is a new attempt but to have the Innocence Project of La that name behind it that brings a lot of waight and and they're saying they want to see the evidence yeah what are they examining cuz you I mean you got your hands on this court filing that they made that you know no one
else had seen until you what are they seeing that so many other people apparently haven't seen over the years this has been litigated this is a big Court filing it's about 800 Pages all of the everything that they submitted to the the court we heard about these back during during the trial and it was said that they had been investigated and ruled out we have heard about them in every appeal that he has done in every attempt to get a new trial which by the way he was on death row at San Quenton u
ntil a couple of years ago when he went to court and said that there had been misconduct the Court ruling potential jurors for the death penalty phase were improperly dismissed after saying they disagreed with the death penalty but would be willing to impose it so right now he's in in prison without parole but they are saying a couple of things they say there is evidence that they want to look at involving a burglary that happened across the street from Scott and Lacy Peterson's home around the
time of her disappearance maybe even the same day maybe even within hours police said they investigated it they arrested a couple of guys for it was not related to The Disappearance of lacy Peterson they're not so sure they want to see DNA from that scene the other thing there were some in the the neighborhood who say they saw somebody on a bicycle riding around around the time of her disappearance they want to know what police found out there other Witnesses claimed that people saw a 70s lookin
g van driving by the the home several times and then a couple of days really only about a day later on Christmas day there was a burned out van with blood in it found near the Modesto Airport they want to know more about that did they DNA test that blood whose van was that what was the deal with that van was it the same one in the neighborhood the Innocence Project is saying all of this raises questions that they feel police IGN or did not fully investigate or were so focused in on Scott Peterso
n as her suspect one of the investigators said the moment he met him he thought Scott Peterson was guilty well Alex like like you said the weight that the name the Innocence Project carries right because this group usually takes on the cases of people who don't have the means to defend themselves right or who never got the media Spotlight that they might have needed to move the needle to get their case taken more seriously can they say the same about Scott Peterson like why them and why this guy
well this is really interesting because they don't want to make any comment other than saying that they do now represent them and they're investigating his claims of actual innocence is how they put it but they said they'll have no other comment he was a vilified character in The the country in 2004 2005 okay first of all I met Scott Peterson November 20th 202 he was seen as this evil guy who had been cheating on his wife wanted out of the picture to be with Amber fry with the his mistress Scot
t told me he was not married we did have a romantic relationship and then she found out that he was accused of killing his wife there was so much against him did your wife find out about it I told my wife when in um early December they've got to know with the Innocence Project that this is going to be a controversial one no matter which way it goes and there's a chance that the court is going to look at this and say no way it's going to be up to a judge to say okay we're going to have a hearing
on it or no thank you that that we've tried this he was convicted there have been numerous hearings the California Supreme Court has gotten involved in his case and he has not been freed he has not gotten a new trial and we're done with it uh good chance though they're going to say prosecutors tell us what what you want us to do and then maybe hold a hearing on it and then we'll see where it goes yeah I was going to say so so not a given that he gets a new trial or anything but that clearly is w
hat the innocent project will be looking for no I mean the court could say no way yeah the court could deny him all right Alex Stone they're in La covering this case what 20 years later thank you so much you got it thanks Brad since the war in the Middle East began a few months ago the biggest concern for American officials was making sure this didn't turn into something wider because Israel's got lots of enemies militant groups across the region have allegiances to various countries so it would
n't take a lot for Nations to be forced to respond to attacks which then incur more attacks and then spiral out of control well in the last 24 hours the US has launched new strikes against houthi rebels in Yemen Pakistan has responded to strikes from Iran and Israel's leader says he doesn't think Palestinians should ever have a government of their own in Gaza how's that for keeping everything simple let's go to ABC's foreign correspondent Patrick reval who's in Tel Aviv in Israel right now Patri
ck first of all can you expl these us attacks on the houth to me cuz we hit like dozens of targets a couple weeks ago right that if that was supposed to them why are we striking them again yeah hi Brad I mean this is actually the fifth round of strikes that we've just seen against the houthis by the US um and this time the Pentagon is saying that they were destroying houthi missiles on the launches these missiles on launch rails presented an imminent threat to Merchant vessels and US Navy ships
in the region and could have been fired at any time despite these pretty significant pretty broad strikes that we've seen involving now dozens of cruise missiles and air strikes by the US the houthis are still able to launch missiles at ships in the Red Sea the US and the International Community call on the houthis to cease their unlawful attacks on commercial shipping vessels and since the strikes we've seen the houthi successfully strike at least one American operated and own cargo ship and fr
ankly the houthis are making clear that they have no intention of stopping for now um the leader of the houthis has said that this is actually a great blessing from God that they are now in a confrontation with the us we've said from the outset that we did not think that the attacks would stop after our first military strike that we would have to take further action you've seen us take further action and we're committed to to continuing to do so the other thing is that many experts believe and w
orry that the US to a certain extent may even be kind of playing into the hands of Iran and the houthis who right now want to bring the US more and more into this confrontation and to pull Israel and the US deeper and deeper into this confrontation but still stopping short of a full scale War because it saps the US and Israel's Global influence and just it's sort of Death By A Thousand Cuts is the kind of strategy that that's what we're hearing from from most experts when they look at this and f
rankly if there's one thing we can say we are not further away from a regional War than we were a few days ago well and then I mean if we're talking about you know strikes against militant groups who are also kind of representing countries but kind of not Iran itself the Iranian government admitted to firing missiles at Pakistan now Pakistan is firing missiles back at Iran I mean h how bad could this get yeah I think this caught many people by surprise even you know close watches of the region I
think were very surprised to hear that Pakistan was now involved in this widening conflict and simply Iran fired a number of missiles into Pakistan targeting what it said were militant groups who it blamed for a terror attack a very deadly terror attack a few weeks ago in Iran and Pakistan has responded um by firing its own missiles into Southern Iran in the Border again saying it is targeting separatist groups inside Iran Pakistan undertook a series of Highly coordinated and specifically targe
ted Precision military strikes against terrorist hideouts and both sides saying basically they're not targeting each other but targeting militant groups but obviously it's okay if you're just targeting terrorists in the other country but you're still firing into the other country yeah well yes although same time Pakistan very much said this is not okay this is absolutely not okay it's a clear violation of international law but ultimately Pakistan in particular but also Iran both sides have said
we don't want this to escalate we'd like to deescalate it now and so this's just part of this frankly extraordinary exchange of missiles that we're seeing in the Middle East right now where everyone is essentially communicating with missiles but still staying below the level of a fullscale war but of course as that obviously sounds it's extremely dangerous hey and let's talk about one other thing with Israel that's happened in the last 24 hours and this might be confusing to a lot of Americans b
ecause we always hear about this idea of a two-state solution right because currently we talk about Israel the country and then we talk about the Palestinians we we rarely say Palestine because it's not recognized by the us as a country of Palestine with a recognized government even if they're represented the United Nations that's not how the US sees it right then yet we always talk about the day when Gaza might be you know just another one of these countries now Benjamin Netanyahu is saying he
doesn't see himself ever recognizing Gaza as its own country I mean is that the death of the two-state solution as we know it what's going on so I don't think this is the death of the two-state solution but I think the comments we've heard from Benjamin Netanyahu are very very significant I tell this truth to our American friends and I also stop the attempt to impose a reality on us that would harm Israel's security basically the significant because the US in the last week and frankly for the la
st several weeks but particularly in the last week has been pushing alongside key Arab states to try and put forward something that's like the general outline of a possible peace plan and it would see Saudi Arabia normalized relations with Israel in exchange for Israel promising to take steps towards a Palestinian State mhm and this is the US's sort of Grand Vision for how to not only end this war but to bring something good out of it and finally end this Palestinian Israeli conflict that has ju
st plagued the world for so long but the problem is we've heard directly from prime minister Netanyahu in a speech in response to this saying no way saying I don't want to do this I won't do this in any future Arrangement settlement or no settlement Israel needs security control over all territory west of the Jordan and that means it's impossible really for there to be a fullscale Palestinian state in that in that case and so what we're seeing here really is a growing very severe gap between wha
t the US increasingly wants after this war and what Benjamin Netanyahu wants but it matters because it also suggests how the current Israeli government sees the war and how the US sees it and the current Israeli government wants to keep going it wants to keep going for months more it doesn't really care ultimately if there continue to be large numbers of Civilian deaths their main goal is to destroy Hamas and to get their hostages back and the US government on the other hand wants them to start
wrapping this up because it's inflicting enormous damage on the US standing in the world and Israel standing in the world and so we're increasingly seeing this confrontation and so the big question now is what is the Biden Administration going to do when it has a partner like Benjamin Netanyahu who does not want to compromise with the US and seems to have fundamentally different views on how this war should go and what should come after yeah and I should mention Israel and Hamas actually struck
a deal to send medicines to these Israeli hostages and under the terms of the supply run for every one box that goes to the hostages a thousand boxes of medicine go to the broader Palestinian population which is just a reminder of how many lives hang in the balance in all this Patrick revil there in Tel Aviv thank you so much thanks BR and one last thing for a lot of Americans the snow drought is over this week several regions saw their first snow in a year for New York and Washington it was the
first snowfall in multiple years well think about what's happened between then and now lots of drivers bought their first electric cars which this week led to scenes like this we caught up with many who say they were looking to get to a charging station when they got to this one at 95th in Western in Evergreen Park the stations weren't working remember electric cars don't charge instantaneously even a Tesla Supercharger takes an hour to go from zero to 100% And in cold weather it can be a lot s
lower than that and you can look around here every single car is a Tesla car full with the Tesla cars this whole parking lot when temperatures go way below freezing like what we saw in the Midwest a few things happen one is Chargers don't work as well batteries don't hold to charge as well plus your car uses more energy to run all of its systems and we're waiting waiting waiting for over an hour and it's unfortunate that all these cars are sitting just dead in the spots so in Chicago people rece
ntly found themselves close to empty only to drive up to superchargers with huge lines of cars taking hours at a time to get full after a while some people had to abandon their cars in line rather than be stranded in subzero temps I think just someone needs to come out here and make sure everything's okay cuz it's not okay car experts said this should not tell you electric cars don't work or that they're a bad investment what it does tell you is that just like with every other emerging technolog
y we are still working out the Kinks like for 100 years you had to heat up your gas engine for a while for it to work in cold weather until we finally replaced carburetors with fuel injection systems that's a recent development batteries are advancing at a much faster rate we're just in this weird transition moment we think these are isolated incidents but we are looking into them and seeing where we can make an impact in fact the Biden White House was asked this week whether these crazy stories
mean more Chargers need to be made available smash cut to this morning the administration is out with a new plan to build more charging stations stuff is happening Tesla has actually created a tip sheet for winter driving which includes stuff I would never have thought of for instance just the act of warming up the battery in the morning uses a significant amount of battery power so they got this feature called scheduled departure where while you're waking up it'll be pre-warming the battery wh
ile the car is still plugged in but then there's a stuff that just seems unnecessary Tesla design these really Sleek door handles that actually fold into the car body itself well then when there's a layer of ice on the car guess what you can't pull the door handle anymore there's nothing to grab onto and as the snow remains on the ground it's a good reminder while cars are smarter than ever Mother Nature will outsmart you if you're not careful shout out to Friend of the Pod and producer sister K
risten terz who's Apparently one of these people who are driving around this week desperately realizing oh no all the public Chargers are full I got to get home cuz when it's freezing and your car is running out of juice you stop thinking about the gadgetry real quick start here is produced by Kelly TZ Jen Newman brendis lenus Baker via arenson Cameron chavan Anthony Ali Mara Milwaukee and terara gimbal Ariel Chester is our social media producer Josh Cohan is director of podcast programming I'm

subject and not as an active shooter 77 minutes passed before police entered the classroom and took down the shooter the report also shedding light on what happened after the shooting victims who had already passed away were taken to the hospital in ambulances well children with bullet wounds were put on school buses without any medical attention for grieving families I hope that the failures end today and the local officials do what wasn't done that day do right by the victims and survivors of

orite hacks to make life a little easier and today I bring you my favorite freezer hack to save food waste keep the freezer organized and save you dishwashing time take a look do you ever go to your freezer and realize you have a whole container of food but you only want one portion guess I'm eating spinach dip every day this week getting the food out of the container is always a good time and of course you have to put it in a different container to actually heat it ah more dishes great and all
that's assuming you can actually find the food you're looking for I don't see it where'd it go but now there's a better way and all you need is some silic cone ice cube trays and a wine marker these are meant for whiskey ice cubes but they've been a GameChanger for me in the kitchen here's why each Cube holds exactly half a cup that's a perfect serving size for most dishes so now you can pull out just the amount of food you actually want you can even put different food groups in each Cube so you
end up with a full microwave meal ready to go and speaking of microwave these can go right in there and the oven and the dishwasher plus you can label what's inside with a wine pen and I like to put mine in my freezer door so no more freezer scavenger hunt dinner is [Music] served that's good it really is you can share or save that hack right now on the ABC News live Instagram account and stay tuned for more maso methods meanwhile potatoes could soon lose their official status as a vegetable us
dietary guidelines advisory committee is considering reclassifying them as a type of starchy carb ABC's Danny Lou takes a look into the heated debate every diet I've ever fell off of has been because of a potato even Immortals like Dolly Parton succumb to the power of a potato I never met a Spur I didn't like I love me some fries too but now the US dietary guidelines advisory committee is actually debating whether to recommend reclassifying potatoes as something other than a vegetable God I lov
e these fries however this discussion doesn't seem to actually have to do with whether potatoes grow from the ground or not but instead how we eat them I've been on Team potato all along Wendy Wesley a registered dietitian nutritionist says that many of us are forgetting that potatoes can be quite healthy in their natural state potatoes are a wonderful food and and and should be included in the diet potatoes boil them mash them stick them in a stew that Hobbit gets it because when you boil or ro
ast them especially with the skin potatoes can be a tremendous source of potassium and fibers it's just when we fry them they become oil sponges now the decision won't come until 2025 but if we do reclassify them according to the international fresh produce Association America would be losing its most popular vegetable I thought you were um trying to lose weight lay off me I'm starving of course we know a lot of that has to do with fries so the question is with us schools still serving fries as
a quote unquote vegetable and our country's adult obesity rate currently sitting at 40% could this reclassification be technically incorrect but possibly for the best if this reclassification pulls french fries from our Public Schools then let's do it something to think about anyway can we please hear Dolly Parton say Spud one more time Spud thank you I love her Diane thoughts I think everybody loves do pardon and everybody loves franch fries Danny that's probably the problem here Danny new than

the NFL is bringing some star power to the Super Bowl pregame show the league has announced reaba McIntyre will sing the national anthem post Malone will perform America the Beautiful and Andrew day will sing lift every voice and sing the big game is on February 11th meanwhile tens of thousands of people across the country are getting some relief from their student loan debt the Biden Administration has approved cancelling nearly billion in debt for 74,000 borrowers ABC News senior White House c
orrespondent Selena Wang joins me now for more on that Selena who qualifies for this relief package hey good morning Diane so this is 74,000 borrowers and the majority of them they are public servants including teachers firefighters and nurses who've been working as public servants for at least 10 years another portion of them there are people who've been trying to repay their debt for more than 20 years but haven't seen it forgiven so to be clear though this plan it is fixing gaps in the system
these are people who should have already had some of their debt forgiven based on existing law but they did not get that relief because of these problems in the system so the President says this is just one step and part of his broader efforts to fix what they see as the broken student loan system but just one part of the efforts that they're making and President Biden's $400 billion student debt relief plan was struck down by the Supreme Court last year so how is the administration getting aro
und that ruling yeah so the Administration has been saying look we're not going to let that derail our plans but the Supreme Court striking down his major plan it has forced the administration to take this more peacemeal approach they've had to take these smaller more targeted steps so part of that is fixing gaps in the system giving people the student let debt relief that they are entitled to under the existing law other parts of it include increasing pel grants to low-income students they are
also rolling out these repayment plans that are lower than ever but really the message from the administration from the president is that he's not going to back down from using all of the tools he can the Administration has tried to be creative to try and give relief to as many borrowers as possible and student debt relief was one of Biden's campaign promises in 2020 so what impact could this have on his reelection campaign and we're going to continue to see the president and the vice president
tout this on the campaign Trail it's something that they are very proud of but the really big challenge here Diane is communicating to voters that they've put in all these policies that it's having an impact as this President continues to face persistently low polling numbers but the campaign is betting that this is just going to be one of the key issues that is going to motivate voters especially when it comes to young voters but again the challenge is communicating this to voters what the pres
ident has been touting is the Topline number that their Administration has canceled student loan debt for more than 3.7 million Americans Diane all right senior White House correspondent Selena Wang thank you and Macy's is announcing major cuts the top retailer plans to cut more than 2,000 jobs and close more of its retail stores meanwhile mortgage rates are dropping to their lowest level in eight months ABC News business reporter Alexis christopherus is here to break it all down for us Alexis t
hese layoffs come on the heels of some major layoffs with other retailers too so what do you make of the landscape yeah we're just a few weeks into the new year and thousands of layoffs across a number of different Industries Diane including retail Macy's is just the latest the specifics here they're going to be laying off about 2,300 workers that's across its corporate staff and it's uh store workers it says it's actually going to uh close five stores two in California one in Virginia uh one in
Hawaii this represents about 3 and a half% of its overall Workforce and Macy's also says it's going to automate some of its supply chain and Outsource some other roles what we talked about those other layoffs uh Google Amazon City Group uh among the companies announcing layoffs so far this year but the overall employment picture remains very strong and we have unemployment sitting at its lowest level in nearly 50 years Health Care construction those areas continuing to bring workers on and mort
gage rates are down so does that mean now is the time to buy oh that's always the question is now the time to buy you know what I'm going to say it's specific to your own situation right but the we want answers I wish I could give but the overall picture is is you know a little more positive than it was a few weeks ago because mortgage rates are now at their lowest level than that we've seen since May of 2023 so the rate now 6.6% remember in October it was inching toward uh 8% and just to put th
is in real dollar terms if you were looking at a house $400,000 you put a 20% down payment on it your monthly mortgage uh payment would be about $260 less than it would have been in October so definitely good news we're not where we were back in 2020 remember at the end of 2020 mortgage rates are below 3% the ongoing problems high prices they persist and inventory levels there just aren't enough houses on the market now of course the irony is as these mortgage rates come down more people may wan
t to enter the market which means higher demand which means it puts pressure on prices again but but slowly things are starting to loosen up all right so I can't Outsource my major life decisions to you is what you're telling me please don't I have enough of my own all right pH report Alexis Christoper thanks Alexis you're welcome and the Los Angeles Innocence Project is taking up the notorious case of convicted killer Scott Peterson the California man was convicted in 2004 of murdering his wife

nnocence and points to the actual perpetrators of the crimes against Lacy and Connor Peterson the motion claims Witnesses who saw Lacy the mornings she went missing were not properly interviewed and that a burglary right near their Peterson home are around the same time was not fully investigated they also want more DNA testing of a burned out van found a mile away Peterson's trial attorney Mark gagos remembers arguing the case there were unbelievable amount of leads and pieces of evidence that

on Good Morning America Chief legal analyst Dan Abrams broke down the case and how he thinks prosecutors are going to respond I mean look this case is 18 years old you don't automatically get new trial and new evidence and new testing 18 years later they're going to have to demonstrate that they have a real chance of proving his innocence I think that's a long shot is it possible that they'll get a hearing on this maybe is it possible they'll get a new trial on this I think almost impossible bu

News contributor Dr Lo Patel shares Health advice on the topics that matter most to you and today he is taking your questions and mine but first I want to quickly get to some news Dr Patel the CC CDC is issuing this new guidance on blood testing for pias also known as forever chemicals so who should consider getting tested here people need to understand that these these this class of chemicals you're referring to Diane these per and polyfloral alcohal substances while testing may be able to give
some broad context to your doctor if you're worried about certain medical conditions such as kidney disease or hypertension we don't yet have any way to remove these forever chemicals from your body testing may not be accessible to everything everyone in the country it might be very expensive and so this is just one piece in a puzzle if you want to have that conversation with your physician based on your environmental exposures and potential risk factors because one thing that is clear is some
estimates say that 90% of Americans have an exposed to these forever chemicals they're in a lot of consumer goods such as food packaging some water or heat repellent things non-stick pants they're everywhere and they have been for decades so that conversation with the healthcare professional is important all right Dr Batel we know I love a good life hack and I keep seeing these videos on social media saying to store avocados underwater in the fridge to help them last longer is that safe and do y
ou have any tips for food storage in general my first question is like how long do you need to store your avocados for I mean if you buy an avocado depending on how ripe it is that bad boy can last for like two weeks so just cut it up and make your tacos and eat it but getting back to your question I do not recommend storing avocados underwater neither does the FDA or any public health agency because you're potentially creating an environment in which bacteria such as leria and salmonella nasty
bugs from the surface of avocados can grow and multiply in that underwater environment and then what they can then do is penetrate the avocado and get into the avocado's pulp so when you take it out of the water it might not matter if you sanitize that avocado it's already going to be in your green tasty snack so just store it normally and some other fun tips if you cut fruit or vegetables get them in the fridge within two 2 hours you want to make sure that you were washing your fruits and veget
ables but not using a disinfectant and also and this is a fun tip that people forget about if you see a bruised or cut fruit or vegetable you want to cut that part away before you eat it or potentially avoid buying that specific fruit in the grocery store because that is an area where bacteria on the surface of your food can get inside that's not a good thing just eat your avocados people we also have a viewer question from Scott in Oakland California Scott wants to know how strict do we have to
with the timing of baby vaccines I'm so glad that Scott asked this question because the timing of those baby vaccines this is assuming that Scott is referring to that when babies are born they get Hepatitis B then there's another he be shot around one to two months and then there's that R those routine vaccines at 2 four and six months now the timing between that set eight weeks that is an optimal time frame for those growing immune systems to make sure they're building up the right amount of p
rotection in some situations you may need to get those vaccines slightly earlier maybe a few days or a week earlier if you're going to an international destination you want to make sure you're getting your babies protected so it's important that you have a conversation with your pediatrician or doctor about timing and that we don't look at alternative vaccine schedules there's no evidence to back those up and sometimes you could create a gap in your baby's immunity and oftentimes when I hear peo
ple and parents look at these schedules and they say things like oh my gosh I don't I've never seen a case of diptheria tetanus pertusus polio mackus why is my baby getting these shots I'm like you haven't seen a case of those because vaccines work all right Dr Al Patel always great to have you and your advice and if you have questions for Dr Batel leave a message on our Instagram feed he might answer your question right here on Friday and whether you call it being dry sober or alcohol free givi
ng up booze is having a moment this dry January according to the CDC one in six adults binge drink but a growing number of people are making the decision to forego go alcohol now experts say they're on to something ABC's will Gans has more is it even cool to drink alcohol anymore now it's cringe why am I doing this it feels like dry January is everywhere with people getting candid on Tik Tok where my dry January people at this is my first ever time doing dry January and like I am actually strugg
ling and mixing mocktail on social media so dry January the idea behind it is simply reevaluating your relationship with alcohol and taking a break from it I think so often we don't realize how alcohol is associated with so many of our social events uh so many of our daily life activities it's a moment for us to readjust how we culturally look at alcohol it's a social media Trend that for some turns into something more celebrities like Tom Holland telling Jay shett how doing dry January led him
to a sober lifestyle year round and I decided to just give up for January I just wanted to do dry January and all I could think about was having a drink if I can do six months without alcohol then I can prove to myself that I don't have a problem and by the time I had got to June 1st I was the happiest I'd ever been in my life no matter why people decide to abstain medical doctors say that taking a break from booze has immediate health benefits many people don't realize that they might be partic
ipating in Ben shrinking having more more than three to four alcoholic beverages in one experience and that directly affects your sleep that night but also your health in the long run your gastrointestinal health and then so on and so forth your risk of cancer from day Breakers early morning Raves where people trade in bottomless brunch for beads to bars where booze isn't even on the menu companies are cashing into Stars releasing non-alcoholic products like Katy Perry's booze free beverage line
Des swah a great time Blake Lively Seltzer Betty Buzz let them know how good it is more and more are embracing life without alcohol congratulations your first dry January how's it going so far it's going good it's going very dry Austin Burton has been posting his past month on Tik Tok it's not because I have a drinking problem by any means I just have a problem with what comes with drinking and my recover is off sleep's off and just my mental game is is a little slower than usual and so I just
wanted to take a break from it all it wasn't necessarily like okay I'm going 100% sober but let's just see what happens when I can take a break and do something for myself my own decision and I haven't really looked back since he decided to stop drinking last September and used dry January to keep the momentum going and Austin isn't alone in fact 28% of college aged adults are going booze free entirely you're 33 I'm 31 I feel like like our age in particular and younger are really re-evaluating o
ur relationships with alcohol do you have any sense of why that might be I think it's because of these conversations I don't remember ever hearing any of this growing up like I remember watching my parents and their friends have a a wine cooler and a cigarette to relax Kelsey Sorenson has documented what she says are three solid sober years I had tried several times to do a dry January to take 30 days to not drink for a weekend and I kept coming up short and that's when I really was like if I ca
n't remove this thing from my life easily it has to be problematic give sobriety a year try it out for a year see how you like it and if you don't your misery is refunded for free she's found a community online by sharing her journey so if this resonates with you at all you are not alone I am over 2 years alcohol free now in my life incredibly different what advice do you give to someone who is taking that very first step in re-evaluating their relationship with alcohol yeah just take it day by
day I think we can get really worried about forever I mean when I first started this journey I was like what am I going to do at my wedding what am I going to do at my bachelorette party so just take it one day at a time hey I'm not going to drink today see how I feel tomorrow Kelsey and Austin have different but both are part of a growing community that will continue far beyond dry January I just want to keep going and see where this where this takes me I had no idea there was so many people do
ing it it's a movement it's something and people are are really into it because of that well Gans thank you coming up get ready to scream Janet Jackson is extending her tour and Megan Wright is droing stopping the details [Music] next we can change the course of history you will fight against oppression by any means necessary brothers and sisters are you ready you must be a little daring this is our reality now [Music] tonight he told me I've killed before and I'm not afraid to kill again the 20

facing she said that she would be open to considering a pardon for Trump if he is convicted saying that it would be healing for the country as for Dan santis well he openly admitted here that his campaign strategy is to try to hold on until South Carolina hoping that Nikki Haley drops out and that this becomes a one-on-one matchup between himself and Donald Trump I am all right Rachel Scott in Manchester New Hampshire Rachel thank you and we will cover the New Hampshire primary through the day T
uesday January 23rd with special coverage as results come in starting at 700 p.m. Eastern right here on ABC News live meanwhile Congress has passed a short-term spending Bill to avert a partial government shutdown just a day before the deadline the deal is now headed to President Biden's desk to be signed ABC's Jay O'Brien is on Capitol Hill with more on that Jay Congress is buying a few extra weeks to try to work out a more long-term agreement so what happens next well it's deja vu Diane how ma
ny times have you and I been here together and said Congress has passed a short-term funding bill right before the deadline and they've kicked the can down the road this is the third short-term funding bill Congress has passed within this broader funding fight it's the second one Mike Johnson has been speaker of the house during while it's passed what it means is it kicks Federal funding and extends it into two different deadlines in March um it gives speaker Johnson and Chuck Schumer the top De
mocrat in the Senate who controls that chamber time to implement that broader funding plan that they agreed to a few weeks back essentially get that through the various chambers of Congress for Mike Johnson it is a complicated Factor because he's got hardliners in his own party who do not like firstly this temporary funding deal that's now in place and secondly that broader funding deal that he struck with Shu Schumer and they're pledging to put some Gremlins in the works as Mike Johnson tries t
o get get that broader plan through the House of Representatives before those deadlines in March and President Biden's son Hunter has agreed to sit down for a closed door deposition with lawmakers after weeks of back and forth about whether he should be held in contempt of congress so how do you expect that to play out well it's been this roller coaster ride right initially House Republicans said they wanted hunter Biden to testify behind closed doors um in a deposition which the rest of their W
itnesses have done as part of this impeachment inquiry Hunter Biden says no he's only going to testify in public how Republicans then say okay we're going to hold you in contempt of congress Hunter Biden says fine and he crashes that hearing remember about holding him in contempt of congress and then Hunter Biden's lawyers say to House Republicans well because they voted now to formalize this impeachment inquiry into President Biden they uh that means that Hunter Biden if Republicans issued a ne
w subpoena would potentially comply with that subpoena so now they have set that date to depose him behind closed doors in late February um don't expect there to be any kind of video other than Hunter Biden walking in and out um but we have heard um that there is a potential to get a little bit more of a fome readout of what's said behind those closed doors because the hunter Biden team is so concerned that his testimony could be cherry-picked or manipulated by lawmakers who leave that room and
go out and talk to reporters now the house armed services committee is asking Secretary of Defense Lloyd Austin to testify publicly next month for not disclosing his hospitalization what do lawmakers want to hear from him well we've heard this repeatedly particularly from House Republicans but even some Democrats in the early moments after that Austin hospitalization news broke that they were concerned as you noted by what they said was a lack of transparency by the Department of Defense not jus
t a lack of transparency to the American people but a lack of transparency to the White House remember there was a delay to which President Biden learned of firstly secretary Austin's hospitalization and secondly his cancer diagnosis and so that is the overall question that Lloyd Austin is likely to face if he does comply with this request from the house to testify in that house armed services hearing all right ABC's J O'Brian Jay thank you and the US has launched a new round of strikes against
the houthis in Yemen the Iranian backed Rebel group has repeatedly attacked ships in the Red Sea which are key to the global supply chain now those attacks and count attacks all over the Middle East are raising fears the us could get sucked into a war it doesn't want Chief Global Affairs correspondent Martha RIT has the latest the fifth round of American air strikes in just a week pounding houthi Targets in Yemen the Pentagon strikes taking out several houthi anti-ship missiles it said posed an

Thursday and a new strategy for grocery shopping is taking off on social media more and more people say the six to1 method saves them both money and time ABC News Elizabeth shelzy tested it out for us take a look it's the viral strategy saving some grocery Shoppers time and money let me show my favorite way of grocery shop on a budget in 30 minutes meet the 6 to1 method influencer will Coleman's creation where each week you buy Six veggies five fruits four proteins three starches two sauces one
fun thing for yourself and that's it what was behind the idea of this method I just wanted to take control of my wallet and my time and and just figure out a way to be strategic when it cames to the normal thing of grocery shopping something we all have to do Coleman says he spends between $80 and $90 per week using the 6:1 method on groceries for his household of two almost half of what the typical couple spends every week the six method has saved me hundreds of dollars because you come in the
grocery store with a plan you're not just shopping for anything Tiara Smith says the method helped cut back spending cash on takeout and it forces me to save even more money because I'm not going to eat out because I have food at home that I know I can cook we decided to give the six to1 method a try this definitely counts as one fruit right for me six fresh vegetables felt like a lot to use before they spoiled okay we'll do some broccoli why not I opted for some frozen options good for the kids
and my one fun item coffee it was non-negotiable my bill coming out to just under $100 nutritionists say the plan which is heavy in produce also has health benefits I always feel like we can all stand to have more plants in our pattern of eating so this breakdown really encourages people to eat their fruits and veggies okay so Diane to maximize the effectiveness of this strategy it is still best to make a list of meals ideas and recipes in advance so you're not just throwing random items in you
r cart like I did and to make sure that all of that fresh food doesn't go to waste Coleman suggest cutting it up as soon as you get home from the store Diane all right great tips Elizabeth Shela thank you and coming up GMA lifestyle contributor Lori burato joins us for the right stuff with the best meal kits it's time for the right stuff when we come back [Music] back we can change the course of history you will fight against oppression by any means necessary brothers and sisters are you ready w

ajority of them they are public servants including teachers firefighters and nurses who've been working as public servants for at least 10 years another portion of them there are people who've been trying to repay their debt for more than 20 years but haven't seen it forgiven so to be clear though this plan it is fixing gaps in the system these are people who should have already had some of their debt forgiven based on existing law but they did not get that relief because of these problems in th
e system so the President says this is just one step been part of his broader efforts to fix what they see as the broken student loan system but just one part of the other efforts that they're making President Biden's $400 billion student debt relief plan was struck down by the Supreme Court last year so how is the administration getting around that ruling yeah so the Administration has been saying look we're not going to let that derail our plans but the Supreme Court striking down his major pl
an it has forced the administration to take this more peacemeal approach they've had to take these smaller more targeted steps so part of that is fixing gaps in the system giving people the student debt relief that they are entitled to under the existing law other parts of it include increasing pel grants to low-income students they are also rolling out these repayment plans that are lower than ever but really the message from the administration from the president is that he's not going to back
down from using all of the tools he can the Administration has tried to be creative to try and give relief to as many borrowers as possible and student debt relief what was one of Biden's campaign promises in 2020 so what impact could this have on his re-election campaign and we're going to continue to see the president and the vice president tout this on the campaign Trail it's something that they are very proud of but the really big challenge here Diane is communicating to voters that they've
put in all these policies that it's having an impact as this President continues to face persistently low polling numbers but the campaign is betting that this is just going to be one of the key issues that is going to motivate voters especially when it comes to to young voters but again the challenge is communicating this to voters what the president has been touting is the Topline number that their Administration has canceled student loan debt for more than 3.7 million Americans Diane all righ
t senior White House correspondent Selena Wang thank you and Macy's is announcing major cuts the top retailer plans to cut more than 2,000 jobs and close more of its retail stores meanwhile mortgage rates are dropping to their lowest level in 8 months ABC News business reporter Lexus CHR stus is here to break it all down for us Alexis these layoffs come on the heels of some major layoffs with other retailers too so what do you make of the landscape yeah we're just a few weeks into the new year a
nd thousands of layoffs across a number of different Industries Diane including retail Macy's is just the latest the specifics here they're going to be laying off about 2300 workers that's across its corporate staff and its uh store workers it says it's actually going to uh close five stores two in California one in Virginia uh one in Hawaii this represents about three and a half% of its overall Workforce and Macy's also says it's going to automate some of its supply chain and Outsource some oth
er roles what we talked about those other layoffs uh Google Amazon City Group uh among the companies announcing layoffs so far this year but the overall employment picture remains very strong and we have unemployment sitting at its lowest level in nearly 50 years Health Care construction those areas continuing to bring workers on and mortgage rates are down so does that mean now is the time to buy oh that's always the question is now the time to buy you know what I'm going to say it's specific t
o your own situation right but the boo we want answers I wish I could give but the overall picture is is you know a little more positive than it was a few weeks ago because mortgage rates are now at their lowest level than that we've seen since May of 2023 so the rate now 6.6% remember in October it was inching toward uh 8% and just to put this in real dollar terms if you were looking at a house $400,000 you put a 20% down payment on it your monthly mortgage uh payment would be about $260 less t
han it would have been in October so definitely good news we're not where we were back in 2020 remember at the end of 2020 mortgage rates were below 3% the ongoing problems high prices they persist and inventory levels there just aren't enough houses on the market now of course the irony is as these mortgage rates come down more people may want to enter the market which means higher demand which means it puts pressure on prices again but but slow things are starting to loosen up all right so I c
an't Outsource my major life decisions to you is what you're telling me please don't I have enough of my own all right pH report Alexis Christoper is thanks Alexis welcome and the Los Angeles Innocence Project is taking up the notorious case of convicted killer Scott Peterson the California man was convicted in 2004 of murdering his wife Lacy and their unborn child now the Innocence Project says newly discovered evidence points to different perpetrators ABC's Kaa Whitworth has the latest from Lo

atically get new trial and new evidence and new testing 18 years later they're going to have to demonstrate that they have a real chance of proving his innocence I think that's a long shot is it possible that they'll get a hearing on this maybe is it possible they'll get a new trial on this I think almost impossible but you never know Scott Peterson has always maintained his innocence and claimed he received an unfair trial based on possible jury misconduct coming up storing avocados underwater

cs that matter most to you and today he is taking your questions and mine but first I want to quickly get to some news Dr Patel the CC CDC is issuing this new guidance on blood testing for pasas also known as forever chemicals so who should consider getting tested here people need to understand that these these this class of chemicals you're referring to Diane these per and polyfloral alcohol substances while testing may be able to give some broad context to your doctor if you're worried about c
ertain medical conditions such as kidney disease or hypertension we don't yet have any way to remove these forever chemicals from your body testing may not be accessible to everything everyone in the country it might be very expensive and so this is just one piece in a puzzle if you want to have that conversation with your physician based on your environmental exposures and potential risk factors because one thing that is clear is some estimates say that 90% of Americans have been exposed to the
se forever chemicals they're in a lot of consumer goods such as food packaging some water or heat repellent things non-stick pants they're everywhere and they have been for decades so that conversation with the healthcare professional is important all right Dr butel we know I love a good life hack and I keep seeing these videos on social media saying to store avocados underwater in the fridge to help them last longer is that safe and do you have any tips for food storage in general my first ques
tion is like how long do you need to store your avocados for I mean if you buy an avocado depending on how ripe it is that bad boy can last for like two weeks so just cut it up and make tacos and eat it but getting back to your question I do not recommend storing avocados underwater neither does the FDA or any public health agency because you're potentially creating an environment in which bacteria such as leria and salmonella nasty bugs from the surface of avocados can grow and multiply in that
underwater environment and then what they can then do is penetrate the avocado and get into the avocado's pulp so when you take it out of the water it might not matter if you sanitize that avocado it's already going to be in your green tasty snack so just store it normally and some other fun tips if you cut fruit or vegetables get them in the fridge within 2 hours you want to make sure that you were washing your fruits and vegetables but not using a disinfectant and also and this is a fun tip t
hat people forget about if you see a bruised or cut fruit or vegetable you want to cut that part away before you eat it or potentially avoid buying that specific fruit in the grocery store because that is an area where bacteria on the surface of your food can get inside that's not a good thing just eat your avocados people we also have a viewer question from Scott in Oakland California Scott wants to know how strict do we have to be with the timing of baby vaccines I'm so glad that Scott asked t
his question because the timing of those baby vaccines this is assuming that Scott is referring to that when babies are born they get Hepatitis B then there's another he be shot around one to two months and then there's that R those routine vaccines at 2 4 and 6 months now the timing between that set 8 weeks that is an optimal time frame for those growing immune systems to make sure they're building up the right amount of protection in some situations you may need to get those vaccines slightly
earlier maybe a few days or a week earlier if you're going to an international destination you want to make sure you're getting your babies protected so it's important that you have a conversation with your pediatrician or doctor about timing and that we don't look at alternative vaccine schedules there's no evidence to back those up and sometimes you could create a gap in your baby's immunity and often times D when I hear people and parents look at these schedules and they say things like oh my
gosh I don't I've never seen a case of dip theia tetanus pertusus polio pacus why is my baby getting these shots I'm like you haven't seen a case of those because vaccines work all right Dr Lo Patel always great to have you and your advice and if you have questions for Dr Batel leave a message on our Instagram feed he might answer your question right here on Friday and whether you call it being dry sober or alcohol free giving up booze is having a moment this dry January according to the CDC on
e in six adults binge drink but a growing number of people are making the decision to forgo alcohol now experts say they're on to something ABC's will Gans has more is it even cool to drink alcohol anymore now it's cringe why am I doing this it feels like dry January is everywhere with people getting candid on Tik Tok where my dry January people at this is my first ever time doing dry January and like I am actually struggling and mixing mocktails on social media so dry January the idea behind it
is simply re-evaluating your relationship with alcohol and taking a break from it I think so often we don't realize how alcohol is associated with so many of our social events uh so many of our daily life activities it's a moment for us to readjust how we culturally look at alcohol it's a social media Trend that for some turns into something more celebrities like Tom holl and telling J Shetty how doing dry January led him to a sober lifestyle year round and I decided to just give up for January
I just wanted to do dry January and all I could think about was having a drink if I can do six months without alcohol then I can prove to myself that I don't have a problem and by the time I had got to June 1st I was the happiest I'd ever been in my life no matter why people decide to abstain medical doctors say that taking a break from booze has immed imediate health benefits many people don't realize that they might be participating in binge drinking having more than three to four alcoholic b
everages in one experience and that directly affects your sleep that night but also your health in the long run your gastrointestinal health and then so on and so forth your risk of cancer from day Breakers early morning Raves where people trade in bottomless brunch for beads to bars where booze isn't even on the menu companies are cashing into Stars release reling non-alcoholic products like Katy Perry's booze-free beverage line Des swwa a great time or Blake Lively's Seltzer Betty buds let the
m know how good it is more and more are embracing life without alcohol congratulations your first dry January how's it going so far it's going good it's going very dry Austin Burton has been posting his past month on Tik Tok it's not because I have a drinking problem by any means I just have a problem with what comes with drinking my recover is off sleep's off and just my mental game is is a little slower than usual and so I just wanted to take a break from it all it wasn't necessarily like okay
I'm going 100% sober but let's just see what happens when I can take a break and do something for myself my own decision and I haven't really looked back since he decided to stop drinking last September and used dry January to keep the momentum going and Austin isn't alone in fact 28% of college aged adults are going booze free entirely you're 33 I'm 31 I feel like our age in particular and younger are really re-evaluating our relationships with alcohol do you have any sense of why that might b
e I think it's because of these conversations I don't remember ever hearing any of this growing up like I remember watching my parents and their friends have a a wine cooler and a cigarette to relax Kelsey senson has documented what she says are three solid sober years I had tried several times to do a dry January to take 30 days to not drink for a weekend and I kept coming up short and that's when I really was like if I can't remove this thing from my life easily it has to be problematic give s
obriety a year try it out for a year see how you like it and if you don't your misery is refunded for free she's found a community online by sharing her journey so if this resonates with you at all you are not alone I am over 2 years alcohol free now in my life incredibly different what advice do you give to someone who is taking that very first step in re-evaluating their relationship with alcohol yeah just take it day by day I think we can get really worried about forever I mean when I first s
tarted this journey I was like what am I going to do at my wedding what am I going to do at my bachelorette party so just take it one day at a time hey I'm not going to drink today see how I feel tomorrow Kelsey and Austin have different Journeys but both are part of a growing community that will continue far beyond dry January I just want to keep going and see where this where this takes me I had no idea there was so many people doing it it's a movement it's something and people are are really

is we'll take you there you're streaming ABC News live hi I'm D today on ABC News live first the battle for New Hampshire Nikki Haley is stepping up attacks on former president Trump but will it be enough to keep her campaign live snow emergencies 100 million Americans are under winter alerts the timing of the next storm and another major cold blast impacting the weekend plus my favorite food freezing hack we are heading into my kitchen for the latest maso [Music] methods we begin with former u
n Ambassador Nikki Haley stepping up her attacks on former president Trump just four days away from the nation's first primary New Hampshire's Governor has thrown his support behind Haley predicting December that she would win the state's primary now she's going after Trump on everything from his age to his track record ABC zorin Shaw is in Manchester New Hampshire with more on that soene how critical is this primary for Nikki Haley Diane you said it critical is the word look Haley has to win in
this state if she wants to be seen as a real Challenger to Donald Trump after next week and right now he is leading in the polls she is trying very hard to change that now the moment you turn on your TV when you're here you see her attacking both Biden and Trump making the point that many Americans do not want to see a rematch between two 80-year-olds or one almost 80-year-old Trump said the Republicans will lose if she's the nominee lose races up and down the ballot and so are Rachel Scott las
t night she asked Haley on this she pressed her she said you know is this what do you think about this and Haley said look the reality is who lost the house for us who lost the Senate making the case that the Republican Party would be worse off if if Trump was in fact the nominee so what are Republican voters there saying as we're just a few days away now from the primary that's the question right okay so listen when I was in New Hampshire four years ago for the Democrats and their race there we
re several candidates that were in that race in that moment that had a real shot the difference is right now there are three candidates that people have to choose from and it's not a hard decision when you have to make a decision between three people versus many people out here tell me they have their minds made up and there are not a lot of undecided voters that I can find at this point meanwhile Z Democrats decision to change the order of their primaries to set off this chain reaction in New H
ampshire now the DNC says it won't actually count and you spoke to democratic Challenger Dean Phillips ahead of the primary what's at stake for his campaign this is a really interesting scenario that has gotten set up I did speak to Dean Phillips in fact he is polling at 7% compared to Joe Biden's 69 and look by all indication Joe Biden will be the next Democratic nominee but Dean says that Biden has been bad for the average American and then I asked him this question take a listen are people st
ruggling more under Joe Biden than they were under Donald Trump it depend that those are questions for individuals there's a sense right now what I'm see what I'm seeing is people feeling very insecure financially insecure and even physically insecure uh both in their neighborhoods and frankly with the world when I talk about chaos I'm talking about chaos at the southern border talking about chaos in the Middle East and in Eastern Europe and there's a sense of fear right now that is really palpa
ble so Diane I think it's interesting that he did not make that comparison between Trump and Biden but I also asked about that independent vote that I was talking about specifically about the anti-trump voter why would a voter in this state make a calculation to vote in the Democratic race here when they could make a difference in a much closer closer racing the polls the Republican race so his senior adviser told me just a few minutes ago he said they are making the case that Dean has a much be
tter chance of beating Biden than Haley has a beating Trump because Haley is trailing and they say she will not win here she will not win in her home state and they see say people just do not know Dean they say that Dean will surprise people here in New Hampshire and then he will surprise people when he moves on to Michigan and they believe that things will shift from there di all right we'll see zorin sha in New Hampshire for us thanks GRE and we will cover the New Hampshire primary through the
day on Tuesday January 23rd with special coverage as results come in starting at 7 p.m. Eastern right here on ABC News [Applause] [Music] live the US appears to be at odds with Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu over the future of a post-war Gaza Netanyahu is voicing opposition to a potential pal inian State saying quote in any agreement Israel must control all the territory west of Jordan meanwhile Aid groups are warning of inhumane conditions in Gaza saying residents have little to no
water or food as Israel defends against accusations of genocide in the international court of justice ABC's Patrick Revel has the latest on that case from Tel Aviv and we do want to warn you some of this video is difficult to watch is Israel committing genocide in Gaza that is the question before the un's highest court the international court of justice please be [Music] seated one of the most significant and controversial cases held there in years it's a second holoc Israel vly rejects it South
Africa which brought the case argues Israel has the scale of the destruction resulting from the bombardment of Gaza and the deliberate restriction of food water medicines and electricity demonstrates that the government of Israel not Jewish people or Israeli citizens the government of Israel and its military is intent on destroying the Palestinians in Gaza as a group but for most Israelis the case is a painful Distortion the applicant has regrettably put before the court a profoundly distorted
factual and legal picture the entirety of its case hinges on a deliberately curated decontextualized and manipulative description of the reality of current hostilities it was Hamas they say that committed genocidal acts on October 7th killing over 1200 Israelis and taking over 240 hostages and they find the case all the more distressing because the genocide convention was created in response to the Holocaust nearly 25,000 Palestinians have been killed according to gaza's Hamas run Health Ministr
y 85% have been internally displaced according to the UN signs South Africa says that combined with dehumanizing rhetoric from Israeli officials points to genocide Israel says its war is aimed at destroying Hamas not Palestinians and that it seeks to protect civilians it's based on a on an international agreement that was formulated uh in the aftermath of the Holocaust to prevent the recurrence of genocide the specific genocide was genocide against Jews on October 7th Israel experiened an attemp
ted genocide uh perpetrated by an openly genocidal organization and now Israel defending itself as being accused of genocide so think to how perverse a nightmare this is for us um and to be totally Frank with you it's already loss for [Music] Israel a ruling on whether Israel committed genocide will take years but the court can impose an injunction within weeks demanding Israel end its military operations it boils down to one basic thing saving lives Aur CIF is a far-left member of Israel's parl
iament the only Israeli lawmaker to sign a petition of support for South Africa's genocide case cassif is a Jewish member of a majority Israeli Arab party and longtime critic of Israel's policies toward Palestinians so that's one of the main reasons why you did this is to just try and get an order to stop the War I mean this is the last Refuge because we are blocked in Israel it can hardly raise our voice as I said so they left us no other way way and option but to appeal to International bodies
cif's move has provoked Fury in Israel lawmakers are moving to expel him from Parliament particularly in the area the court has almost no power to enforce its rulings and Israel's prime minister Benjamin Netanyahu has already said Israel will continue its war on Hamas regardless of the Court's ruling breaking the silence is an NGO established by former Israeli soldiers that's gathered evidence of abuses by Israel's military in the West Bank and Gaza the real question up for the court is um does
this amount to genocide I would uh personally think the answer would probably be no but uh still this doesn't clean Israel from I think very very deep questions about its conduct in the past three months ABC's Patrick revil joins me now from tele Israel for more Patrick when could we see a ruling on these charges of genocide and how much power does the court have to enforce a potential penalty hi Dan yeah I mean it's going to take years before a ruling comes on whether Israel committed genocide
but the court could within just a matter of weeks impose an injunction ordering Israel to end its military operations and that requires a far lower threshold for that to happen and experts are divided on whether it will or not but if it were to it would have pretty huge implications because it would not only apply to Israel but it would apply to countries that are helping Israel including the United States and that could put the US in a position where it has to choose between either continuing
to help Israel or ignoring the Court's ruling and that would be a huge blow to international law and so of course that is why this is such a consequential case that is being heard right now the US is vowing to keep working for a two-state solution what impact are netanyahu's comments having on that yeah these comments that Benjamin Netanyahu made um just a couple of days ago where he ruled out the possibility of a Palestinian state after the war have obviously set off a a diplomatic Firestorm be
cause obviously this puts his government at odds with the US government policy at the moment but what we've also seen um overnight is actually within Benjamin netanyahu's War cabinet we' started to see signs of Division coming out publicly because one of the members um guardi eisenkot who's a retired military Chief of Staff he has come out and criticized Netanyahu in particular over the question of whether to make a deal with Hamas to get a ceasefire to rescue the remaining over a hundred hostag
es still held in Gaza he said there's no dilemma and that Israel absolutely should seek to have a ceasefire we know that the there's a Wing under Netanyahu that opposes that because they fear that if there were to be a ceasefire um they fear that that could be become permanent and would stop them from going for what he has said will be total Victory he has said that Israel will continue until the total Destruction of Hamas and so we're starting to see increasingly these divisions within the war
cabinet and ultimately what happens here in Israeli politics is going to shape very much what happens in the war in Gaza Diane all right Patrick Revel in Tel Aviv Patrick thank you and the US has launched a new round of strikes against the houthis in Yemen the Iranian backed Rebel group has repeatedly attacked ships in the Red Sea which are key to the global supply chain now those attacks and counterattacks all over the Middle East are raising fears the US will get sucked into a war War it doesn
't want Chief Global Affairs correspondent Martha RIT has the latest the fifth round of American air strikes in just a week pounding houthi Targets in Yemen the Pentagon strikes taking out several houi anti-ship missiles it said posed an imminent threat to Commercial and US Navy ships in the region a barrage of us tomahawk missiles destroyed 14 hotti missiles and launchers early earlier this week after houthi missile struck a us-owned ship in the Red Sea one of more than 30 ships targeted by the
houthis with missiles and drones in the last few months President Biden asked if the retaliatory strikes meant to deter the houthis are working the president acknowledging the obvious when you say working are they stopping the hoties no are they going to continue yes Yemen just wanted of The Flash points in this part of the world Blazing Red Iran and Pakistan now trading fire and with the war in Gaza raging tensions between Israel and Hezbollah in Lebanon grow while militants attack US forces i
n Syria and Iraq and there is no sign the exchange of fire in the Red Sea is stopping reports of yet more ships targeted by the Iranian backed groups Diane Chief Global Affairs correspondent Martha r thank you meanwhile US military ships are also in the region in case they're needed for rescue missions foreign correspondent Maggie ruy has more from the USS batan in the Mediterranean hey yeah we're on board the USS batan it's part of three ships traveling as a unit in the Eastern Mediterranean ri
ght now about 500 Miles off the coast of Israel uh this group is called an amphibious ready group uh meaning they are ready to offload Marines and all of this equipment that you see from ship to the shore this is a huge feet you can see uh some of these light armored vehicles around me right now they have more than 80 vehicles on board this ship they have more than 2500 Marines and Navy sailors uh they have dozens and dozens of aircrafts as well what's really special about this ship is that thei
r sole mission is to be able to get all of this everything you see off the ship and on the shore and this this is really the core of that mission this is It's called The Well deck it's about a third of the ship and this entire area can be flooded in just 20 minutes and they're able to transport everything that you see on this ship to the shore they can get all of these vehicles all of the Marines from ship to shore in less than a day so that is a major impact and when you're talking about the US
S baton and the two other ships that's traveling with its presence in the region right now this is what we're talking about every Marine is telling us they are ready to go at a moment's notice meaning they can get to shore whenever they are needed uh they can do things like evacuations they can have amphibious assaults it's an incredibly powerful group and it's this presence they're hoping can deter a wider war in the region now as we're seeing there are questions of if this presence is really d
oing that but you know every Marine we've spoken to acknowledges the power of having this presence of the Navy and the Marine in the region they also tell us they understand the added significance and importance of being here right now the events of October 7th and the war afterwards happened right in the middle of this deployment and they say added a a dose of reality to the situation that they're now living with on board this ship all right foreign correspondent Maggie ruy on the USS batan tha
nk you and families are demanding action after the justice department detailed what it calls cascading failures by law enforcement in the Uvaldi Texas school shooting the Attorney General says because of those failures 33 students and three teachers were trapped in a room with an active shooter for over an hour many of them shot ABC's Mar V has the latest from yaldi a scy new report from the justice department paints a fuller picture of the law enforcement response to the Uval school shooting th
e law enforcement response to the mass shooting at Rob Elementary was a failure the 600 page report finding officers didn't swiftly confront the gunmen during the school shooting in Texas that took the lives of 19 children and two teachers in May of 2022 as a consequence of failed leadership training and policies injured and scared students and teachers remain trapped with the subject in the classrooms waiting to be rescued attorney general Merrick Garland saying some law enforcement leaders was
ted time treating the gualda gunman as a barricaded subject and not as an active shooter 77 minutes passed before police entered the classroom and took down the shooter the report also shedding light on what happened after the shooting victim who had already passed away were taken to the hospital in ambulances while children with bullet wounds were put on school buses without any medical attention for grieving families I hope that the failures end today and the local officials do what wasn't don
e that day do right by the victims and survivors of Rob Elementary the work isn't over what is your big takeaway hearing the Attorney General say that um if the officers would have gone in there could have been a possibility that more kids would have been saved the local district attorney has not commented on the report in fact as of yesterday she was saying she hadn't even read it yet but they will continue with their own independent investigation the Texas governor has also weighed in on the r

ays and a wine marker these are meant for whiskey ice cubes but they've been a game changer for me in the kitchen here's why each Cube holds exactly half a cup that's a perfect serving size for most dishes so now you can pull out just the amount of food you actually want you can even put different food groups in each Cube so you end up with a full microwave meal ready to go and speaking of microwave these can go right in there and the oven and the dishwasher Plus you can label what's inside with
a wine pen and I like to put mine in my freezer door so no more freezer scavenger hunt dinner is [Music] served that's good and you can share or save this hack right on the ABC News live Instagram account and stay tuned for more maso methods thanks for streaming with us I'm Diane Meo ABC News live is here for you anytime with the latest news context and Analysis we'll be right back back whenever wherever news breaks it's so important to always remember that lives are changed here in London in B

ce which can happen pretty quickly with this arctic cold now I want you to take a look at my body with help from this infrared camera you can see the parts that are covered are darker in color but if you look at my face it's that bright yellow color that means I'm losing heat and need to bundle up and where I'm standing you should be able to see the city skyline here in Philly but you can see it's completely obscured by the snow this city expected to more than double the amount of snow it's seen
so far this season States like Pennsylvania New York and New Jersey could see up to 3 in certainly enough to make it very slick out Diane all right areel Rush up in Philadelphia thank you and Philly is one of several cities now under a snow emergency ABC News meteorologist Samar Theodor is there and tracking it all for us Samara you are a busy woman right now what is it like well right now here in Philadelphia we woke up to a coating of a snow but since then it's been pretty steady and while it

ng as it moves out to sea now I will say behind it we are anticipating uh totals to reach anywhere from 1 to 3 Ines generally but down in West Virginia some spots in Pennsylvania we could see anywhere from 3 to 6 Ines of snow and the story doesn't end there after this snow moves out the Arctic air moves in cities that had remained unscathed in the first plunge was well New York City you're waking up to temperatures feeling like 11° Saturday morning Nashville even colder feeling like a degree bel

on everything from his age to his track record ABC News senior Congressional correspondent Rachel Scott has the latest from New Hampshire Donald Trump is escalating his attacks on his former un Ambassador Nikki Haley she's not going to make it she has no chance she's got no way maggot's not going to be with her the former South Carolina governor saying there needs to be a new generation in the White House do we really want to have two 80-year-olds running for president when we've got a country
in disarray and a world on fire Trump on defense I feel like I'm about 35 years old I actually feel better now than I did 30 years ago tell me is that crazy I feel better now and I think cognitively I'm better than I was 20 years ago I don't know why Trump is 77 Biden is 81 and that's a top concern for some independent voters like Kathy Piaza from she voted for Trump in 2016 and Biden in 2020 we just really need a younger generation for one it's time to move on to someone that has a younger pers
pective and um fresh ideas someone that really can make change with just four days to go until the primary Trump and Haley taking aim at each other Trump telling his supporters Republicans will lose if Haley is nominated he says if you're the Nomine then Republicans are not only going to lose the White House but they're going to lose races up and down the ballot your response I mean Trump says things Americans aren't stupid to just believe what he says the reality is who lost the house for us wh
o lost the Senate who lost the White House Donald Trump Donald Trump Donald Trump Diane Nikki Haley has been reluctant to go after the former president for any of the 91 criminal charges that he is facing she said that she would be open to considering a pardon for Trump if he is convicted saying that it would be healing for the country as for Dan santis well he openly admitted here that his campaign strategy is to try to hold on until South Carolina hoping that Nikki Haley drops out and that thi
s becomes a one-on-one matchup between himself and Donald Trump Diane all right Rachel Scott in Manchester New Hampshire Rachel thank you and we will cover the New Hampshire primary through the day Tuesday January 23rd with special coverage as results Comm in starting at 7 p.m. Eastern right here on ABC News live meanwhile Congress has passed a short-term spending Bill to avert a partial government shutdown just a day before the deadline the deal is now headed to President Biden's desk to be sig
ned ABC's Jay O'Brien is on Capitol Hill with more on that Jay Congress is buying a few extra weeks to try to work out more long-term agreement so what happens next well it's deja vu Diane how many times have you and I been here together and said Congress has passed a shortterm funding bill right before the deadline and they've kicked the can down the road this is the third short-term funding bill Congress has passed within this broader funding fight it's the second one Mike Johnson has been spe
aker of the house during while it's past what it means is it kicks Federal funding and extends it into two different deadlines in March um it gives speaker Johnson and Chuck Schumer the top Democrat in the Senate who controls that chamber time to implement that broader funding plan that they agreed to a few weeks back essentially get that through the various chambers of Congress for Mike Johnson it is a complicated Factor because he's got hardliners in his own party who do not like firstly this
temporary funding deal that's now in place and secondly that broad funding deal that he struck with Shu Schumer and they're pledging to put some Gremlins in the works as Mike Johnson tries to get that broader plan through the House of Representatives before those deadlines in March and President Biden's son Hunter has agreed to sit down for a closed door deposition with lawmakers after weeks of back and forth about whether he should be held in contempt of congress so how do you expect that to pl
ay out well it's been this roller coaster ride right initially House Republicans said they wanted hunter Biden to testify behind closed door um in a deposition which the rest of their Witnesses have done as part of this impeachment inquiry Hunter Biden says no he's only going to testify in public how Republicans then say okay we're going to hold you in contempt of congress Hunter Biden says fine and he crashes that hearing remember about holding him in contempt of congress and then Hunter Biden'
s lawyers say to House Republicans well because they voted now to formalize this impeachment inquiry into President Biden they uh that means that Hunter Biden if Republicans issued a new subpoena would potentially comply with that subpoena so now they have set that date to depose him behind closed doors in late February um don't expect there to be any kind of video other than Hunter Biden walking in and out um but we have heard um that there is a potential to get a little bit more of a fome read
out of what's said behind those closed doors because the hunter Biden team is so concerned that his testimony could be cherry-picked or manipulated by lawmakers who leave that room and go out and talk to reporter now the house armed services committee is asking Secretary of Defense Lloyd Austin to testify publicly next month for not disclosing his hospitalization what do lawmakers want to hear from him well we've heard this repeatedly particularly from House Republicans but even some Democrats i
n the early moments after that Austin hospitalization news broke that they were concerned as you noted by what they said was a lack of transparency by the Department of Defense not just a lack of transparency to the American people but a lack of trans transparency to the White House remember there was a delay to which President Biden learned of firstly secretary Austin's hospitalization and secondly his cancer diagnosis and so that is the overall question that Lloyd Austin is likely to face if h
e does comply with this request from the house to testify in that house armed services hearing all right ABC's J obrien Jay thank you and the US has launched a new round of strikes against the houthis in Yemen the Iranian backed Rebel group has repeatedly attacked ships in the Red Sea which are key to the global supply chain now those attacks and counterattacks all over the Middle East are raising fears the us could get sucked into a war it doesn't want Chief Global Affairs correspondent Martha

th the former un Ambassador Nikki Haley is uh and former president Trump are stepping up attacks on each other just four days from the nation's first primary New Hampshire's Governor has thrown his support behind Haley predicting in December that she would win the state's primary now she's going after Trump on everything from his age to his track record ABC zorin Shaw is in Manchester New Hampshire for more zorin Nikki Haley has already made a few stops today in New Hampshire what message is she
sending as she makes his final push Diane she's making the point that Americans do not want to see another match between two 80-year-olds essentially now even though polls contradict this Trump says that Republicans will lose if she is the nominee she says he is the one who lost the house he lost the Senate she says Republicans will be worse off but you asked about messaging so take a listen to what she said this morning during one of her stops let's take what we've learned over the last few ye
ars and say what's working what's not working and let's make it more local so the second we start giving students power that we start giving parents power that we start giving teachers power and we put transparency back in the classroom and the ability for parents to say this is what I want for my child that's when America will Thrive like never okay so did you notice what I did she did not mention Donald Trump there in fact regularly she doesn't mention Donald Trump and there is never a full fo
rced attack on Trump in fact she said that she would pardon him if he was convicted because the country would be better off so zaren what's Trump doing in these final days before the New Hampshire primary so he has a rally tonight in Concord New Hampshire and then he's been back and forth between New York for court appearances and New Hampshire he's basically combining the campaign trail with his trial but tomorrow he will be speaking in the arena right behind me actually and you heard that righ
t arena there is no other candidate who is managing to book such a large venue so where does this all leave Ron de santis who has shifted his resources to South Carolina it leaves him really hoping that Nikki Haley will not win on Tuesday because if she doesn't he hopes that the race will then be between him and Donald Trump he's trailing significantly though by all by all indication Trump is going to be the next Republican nominee but there's a feeling that if some candidates stay longer in the
race that could be perhaps to their advantage because of all of Trump's indictments we simply just do not know what will happen with that Diane all right zoren Sha in New Hampshire thank you and we will cover the New Hampshire primary through the day Tuesday January 23rd with special coverage as results come in starting at 700 p.m. Eastern right here on ABC News live an anti-abortion Advocates are gathering on the National Mall in Washington DC right now for the March for Life rally despite the

ael defends against accusations of genocide in the international court of justice ABC's Patrick Revel has the latest on that case from Tel Aviv and we do want to warn you some of this video is difficult to watch is Israel committing genocide in Gaza that is the question before the un's highest court the international court of justice please be seated one of the most significant and controversial cases held there in years it's a second Hol Israel vly rejects it South Africa which brought the case
argues Israel has the scale of the destruction resulting from the bombardment of Gaza and the deliberate restriction of food water medicines and electricity demonstrates that the government of Israel not Jewish people or Israeli citizens the government of Israel and its military is intent on destroying the Palestinians in Gaza as a group but for most Israelis the case is a painful Distortion the applicant has regrettably put before the court a profoundly distorted factual and legal picture the
entirety of its case hinges on a deliberately curated decontextualized and manipulative description of the reality of current hostilities it was Hamas they say that committed genocidal acts on October 7th killing over 1200 Israelis and taking over 240 hostages and they find the case all the more distressing because the genocide convention was created in response to the Holocaust nearly 25,000 Palestinians have been killed according to gaza's Hamas run Health Ministry 85% have been internally dis
placed according to the UN signs South Africa says that combined with dehumanizing rhetoric from Israeli officials points to genocide Israel says its war is aimed at destroying Hamas not Palestinians and that it seeks to protect civilians it's based on a on an international agreement that was formulated uh in the aftermath of the Holocaust to prevent the recurrence of genocide the specific genocide was genocide against Jews on October 7th Israel experiened an attempted genocide uh perpetrated by
an openly genocidal organization and now Israel in defending itself as being accused of genocide so think to how perverse a nightmare this is for us um and to be totally Frank with you it's already a loss for Israel a ruling on whether Israel committed genocide will take years but the court can impose an injunction within weeks demanding Israel end its military operations it boils down to one basic thing saving lives Aur CIF is a far-left member of Israel's parliament the only Israel lawmaker t
o sign a petition of support for South Africa's genocide case CIF is a Jewish member of a majority Israeli Arab party and longtime critic of Israel's policies toward Palestinians so that's one of the main reasons why you did this is to just try and get an order to stop the War I mean this is the last Refuge because we are blocked in Israel it can hardly raise our voice as I said so they left us no other way and option but to appeal to International bodies 's move has provoked Fury in Israel lawm
akers are moving to expel him from Parliament particularly in the area the court has almost no power to enforce its rulings and Israel's prime minister Benjamin Netanyahu has already said Israel will continue its war on Hamas regardless of the Court's rulings breaking the silence is an NGO established by former Israeli soldiers that's gathered evidence of abuses by Israel's military in the West Bank and Gaza the real question up for the court is um does this amount to genocide I would uh persona
lly think the answer would probably be know but uh still this doesn't clean Israel from I think very very deep questions about its conduct in the past three months ABC's Patrick reval joins me now from Tel Aviv Israel for more Patrick when could we see a ruling on these charges of genocide and how much power does the court have to enforce a potential penalty hi Dan yeah I mean it's going to take years before a ruling comes on whether Israel committed genocide but the court could within just a ma
tter of weeks impose an injunction ordering Israel to end its military operations and that requires a far lower threshold for that to happen and experts are divided on whether it will or not but if it were to it would have pretty huge implications because it would not only apply to Israel but it would apply to countries that are helping Israel including the United States and that could put the us in a position where it has to choose between either continuing to help Israel or ignoring the Court'
s ruling and that would be a huge blow to international law and so of course that is why this is such a consequential case that is being heard right now the US is vowing to keep working for a two-state solution what impact are netanyahu's comments having on that yeah these comments that Benjamin Netanyahu made um just a couple of days ago where he ruled out uh the possibility of a Palestinian state after the war have obviously set off a a diplomatic Firestorm because obviously this puts his gove
rnment at odds with the US government policy at the moment but what we've also seen um overnight is actually within Benjamin netanyahu's War cabinet we started to see signs of Division coming out publicly because one of the members um guardi eisenkot who's a retired military Chief of Staff he has come out and criticized Netanyahu in particular over the question of whether to make a deal with Hamas to get a ceasefire to rescue the remaining over a 100 hostages still held in Gaza he said there's n
o dilemma and that Israel absolutely should seek to have a ceasefire we know that the that there's a Wing under Netanyahu that opposes that because they fear that if there were to be a ceasefire um they fear that that could be become permanent and would stop them from going for what he has said will be total Victory he has said that Israel will continue until the total Destruction of Hamas and so we're starting to see increasingly these divisions within the war cabinet and ultimately what happen
s here in Israeli politics is going to shape very much what happens in the war in Gaza Diane all right Patrick Revel in Tel Aviv Patrick thank you and the US has launched a new round of strikes against the houthis in Yemen the Iranian backed Rebel group has repeatedly attacked ships in the Red Sea which are key to the global supply chain now those attacks and counterattacks all over the Middle East are raising fears the US will get sucked into a war it doesn't want Chief Global Affairs correspon
dent Martha Raditz has the latest the fifth round of American air strikes in just a week pounding houthi Targets in Yemen the Pentagon strikes taking out several houi anti-ship missiles it said posed an imminent threat to Commercial and US Navy ships in the region a barrage of us tomahawk missiles destroyed 14 houi missiles and launchers earlier this week after a houthi missile struck a us-owned ship in the Red Sea one of more than 30 ships targeted by the houthis with missiles and drones in the
last few months President Biden asked if the retaliatory strikes meant to deter the houthis are working the president acknowledging the obvious when you say working are they stopping the h no are they going to continue yes Yemen just one of the flash points in this part of the world Blazing Red Iran and Pakistan now trading fire and with the war in Gaza raging tensions between Israel and Hezbollah in Lebanon grow while militants attack US forces in Syria and Iraq and there is no sign the exchan
ge of fire in the Red Sea is stopping reports of yet more ships targeted by the Iranian backed groups Diane Chief Global Affairs correspondent Martha RIT thank you meanwhile US military ships are also in the region in case they're needed for rescue missions foreign correspondent Ry has more from the USS batan in the Mediterranean hey yeah we're on board the USS batan it's part of three ships traveling as a unit in the Eastern Mediterranean right now about 500 Miles off the coast of Israel uh thi
s group is called an amphibious ready group uh meaning they are ready to offload Marines and all of this equipment that you see from ship to the shore this is a huge feet you can see uh some of these light armored vehicles around me right now they have more than 80 vehicles on board this ship they have more than 2500 Marines and Navy sailors uh they have dozens and dozens of aircrafts as well what's really special about this ship is that their sole mission is to be able to get all of this everyt
hing you see off the ship and on the shore and this this is really the core of that mission this is It's called The Well deck it's about a third of the ship and this entire area can be flooded in just 20 minutes and they're able to transport everything that you see on this ship to the shore they can get all of these vehicles all of the Marines from ship to shore in less than a day so that is a major impact and when you're talking about the USS baton and the two other ships is traveling with its
presence in the region right now this is what we're talking about every Marine is telling us they are ready to go at a moment's notice meaning they can get to shore whenever they are needed uh they can do things like evacuations they can have amphibious assaults it's an incredibly powerful group and it's this presence they're hoping can deter a wider War in the region now as we're seeing there are questions of if this presence is really doing that but you know every Marine we've spoken to acknow
ledges the power of having this presence of the Navy and the Marine in the region they also tell us they understand the added significance and importance of being here right now the events of October 7th and the war afterwards happened right in the middle of this deployment and they say it added um a dose of reality to the situation that they're now living with on board this ship all right foreign correspondent Maggie ruy on the USS batan thank you and families are demanding action after the jus
tice department detailed what it calls cascading failures by law enforcement in the Uvaldi Texas school shooting the Attorney General says because of those failures 33 students and three teachers were trapped in a room with an active shooter for over an hour many of them shot ABC's Maria vial has the latest from yaldi a scy new report from the justice department paints a full picture of the law enforcement response to the uad school shooting the law enforcement response to the mass shooting at R
ob Elementary was a failure the 600 page report finding officers didn't swiftly confront the gunmen during the school shooting in Texas that took the lives of 19 children and two teachers in May of 2022 as a consequence of failed leadership training and policies injured and scared students and teachers remain trapped with the subject in the classrooms waiting to be rescued attorney general Merrick Garland saying some law enforcement leaders wasted time treating the Uvalda gunman as a barricaded
subject and not as an active shooter 77 minutes passed before police entered the classroom and took down the shooter the report also shedding light on what happened after the shooting victims who had already passed away were taken to the hospital in ambulances while children with bullet wounds were put on school bus without any medical attention for grieving families I hope that the failures end today and the local officials do what wasn't done that day do right by the victims and survivors of R
ob Elementary the work isn't over what is your big takeaway hearing the Attorney General say that um if the officers would have gone in there could have been a possibility that more kids would have been saved the local district attorney has not commented on the report in fact as of yesterday she was saying she hadn't even read it yet but they will continue with their own independent investigation the Texas governor has also weighed in on the report saying he's they've implemented a number of the
recommendations listed in the report but that was based off of the statel investigation they released several months ago Diane I'm Mara vial in yaldi Texas thank you coming up 100 million ion Americans are under winter weather alerts that's right and here in Philadelphia we're one of those cities a winter storm warning in effect our meteorologist Samar theer myself and Melissa will time out the storm and what's coming up just behind [Music] it whenever news breaks we are here in Israel a nation

FL is bringing some Starpower to the Super Bowl pregame show the league has announced Rea McIntyre will sing the national anthem post Malone will perform America the Beautiful and Andrew day will sing lift every voice and sing the big game is on February 11th meanwhile tens of thousands of people across the country are getting some relief from their student loan debt the Biden Administration has approved canceling nearly $5 billion doll in debt for 74,000 borrowers ABC News senior White House co
rrespondent Selena Wang joins me now for more on that Selena who qualifies for this relief package hey good morning Diane so this is 74,000 borrowers and the majority of them they are public servants including teachers firefighters and nurses who've been working as public servants for at least 10 years another portion of them there are people who've been trying to repay their debt for more than 20 years but haven't seen it forgiven so to be clear though this plan it is fixing gaps in the system
these are people who should have already had some of their debt forgiven based on existing law but they did not get that relief because of these problems in the system so the President says this is just one step in part of his broader efforts to fix what they see as the broken student loan system but just one part of the other efforts that they're making now President Biden's $400 billion student debt relief plan was struck down by the Supreme Court last year so how is the administration getting
around that ruling yeah so the Administration has been saying look we're not going to let that derail our plans but the Supreme Court striking down his major plan it has forced the administration to take this more peacemeal approach they've had to take these smaller more targeted steps so part of that is fixing gaps in the system giving people the student debt relief that they are entitled to under the existing law other parts of it include increasing pel grants to low-income students they are
also rolling out these repayment plans that are lower than ever but really the message from the administration from the president is that he's not going to back down from using all of the tools he can the Administration has tried to be creative to try and give relief to as many borrowers as possible and student debt relief was one of Biden's campaign promises in 2020 so what impact could this have on his re-election campaign and we're going to continue to see the president and the vice president
tout this on the campaign Trail it's something that they are very proud of but the really big challenge here Diane is communicating to voters that they've put in all these policies that it's having an impact as this President continues to face persistently low polling numbers but the campaign is betting that this is just going to be one of the key issues that is going to motivate voters especially when it comes to young voters but again the challenge is communicating this to voters what the pre
sident has been touting is the Topline number that their Administration has canceled student loan debt for more than 3.7 million Americans Diane all right senior White House correspondent Lena Wang thank you and Macy's is announcing major cuts the top retailer plans to cut more than 2,000 jobs and close more of its retail stores meanwhile mortgage rates are dropping to their lowest level in eight months ABC News business reporter Lexis christopherus is here to break it all down for us Alexis the
se layoffs come on the heels of some major layoffs with other retailers too so what do you make of the landscape yeah we're just a few weeks into the new year and thousands of layoffs across a number of different Industries Diane including retail Macy's is just the latest the specifics here they're going to be laying off about 2300 workers that's across its corporate staff and it's uh store workers it says it's actually going to uh close five stores two in California one in Virginia uh one in Ha
waii this represents about 3 and a half% of its overall Workforce and Macy's also says it's going to automate some of its supply chain and Outsource some other roles what we talked about those other layoffs uh Google Amazon City Group uh among the companies announcing layoffs so far this year but the overall employment picture remains very strong and we have unemployment sitting at its lowest level in nearly 50 years Health Care construction those areas continuing to bring workers on and mortgag
e rates are down so does that mean now is the time to buy oh that's always the question is now the time to buy you know what I'm going to say it's specific to your own situation right but the we want answers I wish I could give but the overall picture is is you know a little more positive than it was a few weeks ago because mortgage rates are now at their lowest level than that we've seen since May of 2023 so the rate now 6.6% remember in October it was inching toward uh 8% and just to put this
in real dollar terms if you were looking at a house $400,000 you put a 20% down payment on it your monthly mortgage uh payment would be about $260 less than it would have been in October so definitely good news we're not where we were back in 2020 remember at the end of 2020 mortgage rates were below 3% the ongoing problems high prices they persist and inventory levels there just aren't enough houses on the market now of course the irony is as these mortgage rates come down more people may want
to enter the market which means higher demand which means it puts pressure on prices again but but slowly things are starting to loosen up all right so I can't Outsource my major life decisions to you is what you're telling me please don't I have enough of my own all right pH report Alexis christopherus thanks Alexis you're welcome and the Los Angeles Innocence Project is taking up the notorious case of convicted killer Scott Peterson the California man was convicted in 2004 of murdering his wif

back to ABC News live it is time for our weekly segment Pat tell it like it is where ABC News contributor Dr Lo Batel shares Health advice on the topics that matter most to you and today he is taking your questions and mine but first I want to quickly get to some news Dr Patel the CC CDC is issuing this new gu on blood testing for pias also known as forever chemicals so who should consider getting tested here people need to understand that these these this class of chemicals you're referring to
Diane these per and poly floral alkohol substances while testing may be able to give some broad context to your doctor if you're worried about certain medical conditions such as kidney disease or hypertension we don't yet have any way to remove these forever chemicals from your body testing may not be accessible to everything everyone in the country it might be very expensive and so this is just one piece in a puzzle if you want to have that conversation with your physician based on your environ
mental exposures and potential risk factors because one thing that is clear is some estimates say that 90% of Americans have been exposed to these forever chemicals they're in a lot of consumer goods such as food packaging some water or heat repellent things non-stick pants they're everywhere and they have been for decades so that conversation with the healthcare professional is important uh all right Dr butel we know I love a good life hack and I keep seeing these videos on social media saying
to store avocados underwater in the fridge to help them last longer is that safe and do you have any tips for food storage in general my first question is like how long do you need to store your avocados for I mean if you buy an avocado depending on how ripe it is that bad boy can last for like two weeks so just cut it up and make your tacos and eat it but getting back to your question I do not recommend storing avocados underwater neither does the FDA or any public health agency because you're
potentially creating an environment in which bacteria such as leria and salmonella nasty bugs from the surface of avocados can grow and multiply in that underwater environment and then what they can then do is penetrate the avocado and get into the avocado's pulp so when you take it out of the water it might not matter if you sanitize that avocado it's already going to be in your green tasty snack so just store it normally and some other fun tips if you cut fruit or vegetables get them in the fr
idge within 2 hours you want to make sure that you were washing your fruits and vegetables but not using a disinfectant and also and this is a fun tip that people forget about if you see a bruised or cut fruit or vegetable you want to cut that part away before you eat it or potentially avoid buying that specific fruit in the grocery store because that is an area where bacteria on the surface of your food can get inside that's not a good thing just eat your avocados people oh we also have a viewe
r question from Scott in Oakland California Scott wants to know how strict do we have to be with the timing of baby vaccines I'm so glad that Scott asked this question because the timing of those baby vaccines this is assuming that Scott is referring to that when babies are born they get Hepatitis B then there's another he be shot around one to two months and then there's that R those routine vaccines at 2 four and six months now the timing between that set 8 weeks that is an optimal time frame
for those growing immune systems to make sure they're building up the right amount of protection in some situations you may need to get those vaccines slightly earlier maybe a few days or a week earlier if you're going to an international destination you want to make sure you're getting your babies protected so it's important that you have a conversation with your pediatrician or doctor about timing and that we don't look at alternative vaccine schedules there's no evidence to back those up and
sometimes you could create a gap in your baby's immunity and oftentimes I when I hear people and parents look at these schedules and they say things like oh my gosh I don't I've never seen a case of dip theia tetanus pertusus Poli or pacus why is my baby getting these shots I'm like you haven't seen a case of those because vaccines work all right Dr Lo Patel always great to have you and your advice and if you have questions for Dr Batel leave a message on our Instagram feed he might answer your
question right here on Friday and whether you call it being dry sober or alcohol free giving up booze is having a moment this dry January according to the CDC one in six adults binge drink but a growing number of people are making the decision to forgo alcohol now experts say they're on to something ABC's will Gans has more is it even cool to drink alcohol anymore now it's cringe why am I doing this it feels like dry January is everywhere with people getting candid on Tik Tok where I dry January
people at this is my first ever time doing dry January and like I am actually struggling and mixing mocktails on social media so dry January the idea behind it is simply reevaluating your relationship with alcohol and taking a break from it I think so often we don't realize how alcohol is associated with so many of our social events uh so many of our daily life activities it's a moment for us to readjust how we culturally look at alcohol it's a social media Trend that for some turns into someth
ing more celebrities like Tom Holland telling J shett how doing dry January led him to a sober lifestyle year round and I decided to just give up for January I just wanted to do dry January and all I could think about was having a drink if I can do 6 months without alcohol then I can prove to myself that I don't have a problem and by the time I had got to June 1st I was the happiest I'd ever been in my life no matter why people decide to abstain medical doctors say that taking a break from booze
has immediate health benefits many people don't realize that they might be participating in binge drinking having more than three to four alcoholic beverages in one experience and that directly affects your sleep that night but also your health in the long run your gastrointestinal health and then so on and so forth your risk of cancer from day Breakers early morning Raves where people trade in bottomless brunch for Beats to bars where booze isn't even on the menu companies are cashing into Sta
rs releasing non-alcoholic products like Katy Perry's booze free beverage line Des SWAT a great time or Blake Lively Betty Buzz let them know how good it is more and more are embracing life without alcohol congratulations your first dry January how's it going so far it's going good it's going very dry Austin Burton has been posting his past month on Tik Tok it's not because I have a drinking problem byans I just have a problem with what comes with drinking you my recover is off sleep's off and j
ust my mental game is is a little slower than usual and so I just wanted to take a break from it all it wasn't necessarily like okay I'm going 100% sober but let's just see what happens when I can take a break and do something for myself my own decision and I haven't really looked back since he decided to stop drinking last September and used dry January to keep the momentum going and Austin isn't alone in fact 28% of college AED adults are going booze free entirely you're 33 I'm 31 I feel like
our age in particular and younger are really re-evaluating our relationships with alcohol do you have any sense of why that might be I think it's because of these conversations I don't remember ever hearing any of this growing up like I remember watching my parents and their friends have a a wine cooler and a cigarette to relax Kelsey Sorenson has documented what she says are three solid sober years I had tried several times to do a dry January to take 30 days to not drink for a weekend and I ke
pt coming up short and that's when I really was like if I can't remove this thing from my life easily it has to be problematic give sobriety a year try it out for a year see how you like it and if you don't your misery is refunded for free she's found a community online by sharing her journey so if this resonates with you at all you are not alone I am over 2 years alcohol free now in my life incredibly different what advice do you give to someone who is taking that very first step in reevaluatin
g their relationship with alcohol yeah just take it day by day I think we can get really worried about forever I mean when I first started this journey I was like what am I going to do at my wedding what am I going to do at my bachelorette party so just take it one day at a time hey I'm not going to drink today see how I feel tomorrow Kelsey and Austin have different Journeys but both are part of a growing community that will continue far beyond dry January I just want to keep going and see wher
e this where this takes me I had no idea there was so many people doing it it's a movement it's something and people are are really into it because of [Music] that well Gans thank you coming up get ready to scream Janet Jackson is extending her tour and Megan Wright is dropping the details [Music] next tonight with new storm alerts across the country what to expect plus the Red Sea crisis as tension spread in the Middle East region more Americans turn to the most watched newscast on television W

g ABC News [Music] live right now on ABC's News live winter weather emergency heavy snow crippling ice dangerously low wind chills millions of Americans from coast to coast right now in the grips of a life-threatening Arctic blast our extreme weather team is timing it all out on the attack GOP Presidential candidates lashing each other with just days until the New Hampshire primary the latest poll numbers and how voters are feeling and the late breaking news involving a critical new endorsement
and the real Captain America for the first time ever an active duty military member crowned Miss America her story on the historic win when she joins me live good afternoon everyone I'm Kira Phillips we do begin with the life-threatening weather emergency though from coast to coast right now a powerful winter storm on the move and already dumping snow on the northeast Philadelphia bracing for the most of 6 in with 1 to 3 in farther north then in the west a deadly ice storm Oregon the latest stat
e to declare an emergency the crippling house ice Downing power lines there some residents without power for nearly a week now at least 41 deaths are blamed on the extreme weather some Tesla drivers saying it's so cold they even had trouble charging their Batteries More Than a 100 million people now under winter alerts Nationwide more brutal cold is on the way wind chills this weekend dropping Below Zero from Chicago to Kansas City to Nashville our extreme weather team tracking it all but we're
going to begin with our Samar Theodore she's in a very snowy Philadelphia hey Cara good afternoon that's right so I'm here at Independence Hall I just went out and measured some of the snow just under three in and the snowfall has been really steady we woke up to a nice coating and it hasn't stopped since uh as a result we have school cancellations commutes this morning were definitely slowed a lot of the major or main roads in the city are cleared it's the secondary roads where you're seeing a
lot of issues sidewalks they're doing their best to clear them but like I said with half an inch falling an hour we are looking at those sidewalks quickly coated again here in Philadelphia they went 715 days without an inch of snow and now here we are uh this week seeing two storms back to back bringing those inches for certain now the good news is a lot of the snow should taper off this afternoon but as Melissa will tell you we have cold air coming in right behind it Kira and I can see it and f
eel it just looking at you Samar we so appreciate you being there to bring us the latest we'll keep tracking it with you we're also tracking with our Melissa Griffin uh who's in studio I just checking everything all across the country not just Philly yeah that's right Cara happy to be inside where the snow is coming down in New York it's pretty light though for New York so only expecting about 1 to two inches in our area the heaviest snow though is further south in a place like Philadelphia wher
e we saw saw Samara 2 to three inches falling there DC just north of DC closer to Baltimore we're seeing four to 6 Ines of snow and that's why they're under those winter storm warnings there from Baltimore to Philly but the winter weather advisories it stretch all the way from New York back through Pittsburgh into Columbus as this storm was really taking over the Great Lakes right into the North East now I want to show you the timing we're going to continue to see that snowfall through the after
noon but it does wind down pretty quickly behind it it's extremely cold and blustery so even as the snow does clear those roads still very dangerous as the snow that was left behind turns to ice as these temperatures continue to plummet and that's why Here We Go Again wind chill alerts all the way from the plains back through the Deep South by this we weekend another major Arctic blast sweeping the country it will feel like 17 on Sunday in Chicago back to below zero wind chills for Saturday morn
ing in Nashville there in Philadelphia you're getting the snow today not a picnic in the park though over the weekend as those brutal wind chills return it feels like single digits up and down the East Coast yet again Cara all right Melissa we'll talk clearly through out the day and all through the weekend as well thank you [Music] and breaking news now in the race for the White House sources are telling us the South Carolina Senator Tim Scott is actually planning to endorse former president Tru
mp tonight and will actually join him on the campaign Trail in New Hampshire this comes just four days from voting in New Hampshire and the primary there and Nikki Haley is really turning up the heat she's inching closer and closer to Donald Trump in the polls and Ronda santis while he's remains at a distant third already putting his energy into South Carolina our Zen Shaw is there on the ground in Manchester and joins me now well here we go already the news starts to break Tim Scott endorsing T
rump no surprise really there's been a lot of talk about that VP position as well if but Donald Trump takes it all the way that's a very good point here actually and yeah you're exactly right congressman from South Carolina this is a huge blow to Haley former governor of South Carolina in that state she needs New Hampshire but she also needs to do well in South Carolina and it's looking less and less likely that either can be possible I mean Scott is expected to go with Trump at to a rally tonig
ht in New Hampshire according to the New York Times and he thinks that Trump is the best person to beat Biden according to the times as well well it's interesting I mean Haley is the one that appointed Tim Scott to the Senate so I mean this just creates more conversation in questions and is it possible we could hear more from Haley's Camp I'm sure we will I I I you know I haven't heard any sort of leaks about uh possible endorsements that could be coming up on her and again it it's really the pa
th is tough for her even if she were to squeak out a win in New Hampshire on Tuesday what is the game plan for her coming up ahead Trump has pushed very hard his team has pushed hard to have the DNC to change to have the RNC change the rules in some states like Nevada California in order to benefit Trump so the map really favors him going forward and you know what the other night I went bar to bar here in Manchester what really struck me is that people here knew exactly who they wanted to vote f
or when I talk to them most people told me Donald Trump it's totally different story from when I came down here four years ago I clearly remember walking into my hotel lobby Cara with campaign AIDS biting their fingers just not knowing at all you know how the rest of this state and the rest of the race would pan out I mean remember Biden only got his footing in Nevada uh and the race effectively ended then in South Carolina for him it is different this time with the Republicans it is and we're a
lso seeing that loyalty isn't necessarily locked in either with this news of Tim Scott coming out now well New Hampshire this year is a bit confusing on the Democratic side you actually spoke to democratic Challenger Dean Phillips ahead of the primary what did he tell you it was a really interesting conversation but first I want to tell you why New Hampshire is so confusing for the Democrats coming up on Tuesday first of all the president isn't even on the ballot I mean look Biden was fifth plac
e in New Hampshire last time it was very embarrassing for him he didn't do well in Iowa either and so this is what happened the DNC basically decided that South Carolina would be the first primary and it's actually New Hampshire's state law that they go first so they pushed back and they're still holding a primary but no Biden on the ballot and know delegates will leave New Hampshire so the DNC basically calls Tuesday's Democratic vote meaningless I spoke to Dean Phillips last night and I asked
him what a win then looks like for him in this state we started at zero 10 weeks ago if we are in the 20s I think that is uh not just newsworthy I think it's remarkable and if the president as I anticipate will be somewhere in the maybe 50s you know an incumbent president a strong incumbent should be getting in the 80% range that's what Bill Clinton got 84% Barack Obama got 81% still quite a long shuck here many people I spoke to feel his real impact in the race is taking away independence from
Haley who really needs every vote that she can get just further propelling Trump to the nomination is how some folks feel Kira all right zorine Shaw appreciate uh the breaking news and the update we'll keep talking throughout the day we're also going to cover the New Hampshire primary of course uh all day Tuesday January 23rd with special coverage as results come in starting at 7:00 p.m. Eastern right here on ABC News Live Well forgive and forget the Biden Administration canceling nearly $5 bill
ion in student debt today 74,000 people will get some relief under the newly announced plan from the White House our Jo O'Brien has all the details up from the hill there so who exact oh no sorry you're back here with us in studio I apologize I'm so used to going to the hill I'm upstairs go upstairs and we'll talk I'm right up stairs from you I'm knocking on the ceiling um all right let's talk about who qualified for the debt cancellation exactly and just how this is all going to work Jay yeah s
o it's about billion it qualifies there about 74,000 Americans that qualify for it really who they are people that have applied to existing income driven programs within the Department of Education and also people that have applied for public service waivers like teachers or nurses or First Responders so they're all people that in some way or another fall into existing programs that the department of education has that the Biden Administration has essentially been supercharging and that's becaus
e they can't do the $400 billion dollar worth of student loan forgiveness that they wanted to do Kira because remember over the summer the Supreme Court struck down the president's student loan forgiveness plan saying that the administration overstepped its Authority so what the administration has been doing is try to use these existing programs to cancel or at least amend whatever debt they can got it so student debt relief was just one of Biden's key campaign promises in 2020 so do you think I
don't know this could have any impact on his reelection campaign well it was a huge campaign promise and particularly as polling shows and in my conversations and others conversation shows with younger voters it's still a significant driving issue it's one of the reasons why you see the White House consistently trying to make good on that campaign promise because it was a signature promise in 2020 and it is something that young voters have said that they are going to remember M this time around
if the president responds to it's why the White House said that despite the fact that they can't do the plan they wanted to do they're still going to look at all these available Avenues as we just discussed to try to cancel whatever debt they can got it t bran thanks coming up rejecting calls from the US and widening the rift Benjamin Netanyahu refusing the notion of a Palestinian State postwar Gaza we head to Tel Aviv for more next whenever news breaks we are here in Israel a nation at war aft

Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu publicly rejects any notion of a potential Palestinian State post-war Gaza the Israeli leader saying in any agreement Israel must control all territory west of Jordan meanwhile Aid groups say say people in Gaza are starving and that residents living in this war have little to no water or food Israel is also continue to defend itself against those accusations of genocide as our Patrick Revel takes us inside the international court of justice and we do want to wa
rn you that some of the video here is difficult to watch is Israel committing genocide in Gaza that is the question before the un's highest court the international court of justice please be seated [Music] one of the most significant and controversial cases held there in years it's a second Israel vehemently rejects it South Africa which brought the case argues Israel has the scale of the destruction resulting from the bombardment of Gaza and the deliberate restriction of food water medicines an
d electricity demonstrates that the government of Israel not Jewish people or Israeli citizens the government of Israel and its military is intent on destroying the Palestinians in Gaza as a group but for most Israelis the case is a painful Distortion the applicant has regrettably put before the court a profoundly distorted factual and legal picture the entirety of its case hinges on a deliberately curated decontextualized and manipulative description of the reality of current hostilities it was
Hamas they say that committed genocidal acts on October 7th killing over 1200 Israelis and taking over 240 hostages and they find the case all the more distressing because the genocide convention was created in response to the Holocaust nearly 25,000 Palestinians have been killed according to gaza's Hamas run Health Ministry 85% have been internally displaced according to the UN signs South Africa says that combined with dehumanizing rhetoric from Israeli officials points to genocide Israel say
s its war is aimed at destroying Hamas not Palestinians and that it seeks to protect civilians it's based on a on an international agreement that was formulated uh in the aftermath of the Holocaust to prevent the recurrence of genocide the specific genocide was genocide against Jews on October 7th Israel experiened an attempted genocide uh perp ated by an openly genocidal organization and now Israel in defending itself as being accused of genocide so think to how perverse a nightmare this is for
us um and to be totally Frank with you it's already a loss for Israel a ruling on whether Israel committed genocide will take years but the court can impose an injunction within weeks demanding Israel end its military operations it boils down to one basic thing saving lives auur CIF is a far-left member of of Israel's parliament the only Israeli lawmaker to sign a petition of support for South Africa's genocide case cassif is a Jewish member of a majority Israeli Arab party and longtime critic
of Israel's policies toward Palestinians so that's one of the main reasons why you did this is to just try and get an order to stop the War I mean this is the last Refuge because we are blocked in Israel it can hardly raise our voice as I said so they left us no other way and option but to appeal to International bodies cif's move has provoked Fury in Israel lawmakers are moving to expel him from Parliament particularly in the area the court has almost no power to enforce its rulings and Israel'
s prime minister Benjamin Netanyahu has already said Israel will continue its war on Hamas regardless of the Court's rulings breaking the silence is an NGO established by former Israeli soldiers that's gathered evidence of abuses by Israel's military in the West Bank and Gaza the real question up for the court is um does this amount to genocide I would uh personally think the answer would probably be no but uh still this doesn't clean Israel from I think very very deep questions about its conduc
t in the past three months most legal Scholars say it's extremely difficult to predict what the court will rule but the state are very high if the court were to rule that Israel should end its military operation that could also apply to the US and its help for Israel and that could mean putting the US in the position between choosing whether to end its support for Israel or ignoring the court and if it were to ignore the court that would be a huge blow for international law and that's just one o
f the reasons why this case is so consequential Patrick Revel and Israel Forest Patrick thank you so much well as the Israel Gaza tension continues to spread the US military is shuffling its warships bracing for any escalation and possible rescue missions foreign correspondent Maggie ruy has more now from the USS baton in the Mediterranean hey yeah we're on board the USS baton it's part of three ships traveling as a unit in the Eastern Mediterranean right now about 500 Miles off the coast of Isr
ael uh this group is called an amphibious ready group meaning they are ready to offload Marines and all of this equipment that you see from ship to the shore this is a huge feet you can see uh some of these light armored vehicles around me right now they have more than 80 vehicles on board this ship they have more than 2500 Marines and Navy sailors uh they have dozens and dozens of aircrafts as well what's really special about this ship is that their sole mission is to be able to get all of this
everything you see off the ship and on the shore and this this is really the core of that mission this is It's called The Well deck it's about a third of the ship and this entire area can be flooded it in just 20 minutes and they're able to transport everything that you see on this ship to the shore they can get all of these vehicles all of the Marines from ship to shore in less than a day so that is a major impact and when you're talking about the USS baton and the two other ships it's traveli
ng with it's presence in the region right now this is what we're talking about every Marine is telling us they are ready to go at a moment's notice meaning they can get to shore whenever they are needed uh they can do things like evacuation they can have amphibious assaults it's an incredibly powerful group and it's this presence they're hoping can deter a wider war in the region now as we're seeing there are questions of if this presence is really doing that but you know every Marine we've spok
en to acknowledges the power of having this presence of the Navy and the Marine in the region they also tell us they understand the added significance and importance of being here right now know the events of October 7th and the war afterwards happened right in the middle of this deployment and they say it added a a dose of reality to the situation that they're now living with on board this ship Maggie ruy thank you so much and coming up here she is Miss America sounds much better from one Runwa

and now she's made history on another type of Runway Landing her newest rank of Miss America Madison March now the first active duty military member to win the pageant's title in its nearly 100-year history leaving this pilot select D flying high your Miss America 2024 is Miss Colorado Madison the 22-year-old second lieutenant in the Air Force and recent graduate from its Academy in Colorado has a degree in physics with a focus on astronomy and is not only training to be a military pilot but sh
e's also pursuing a master's degree at Harvard all of this while taking on the title of Miss America joining me now second Lieutenant Miss America 2024 Madison March oh my gosh Madison talk about breaking stereotypes girlfriend how did the air force uh react did you get a Thunderbirds fly over yet no but I mean they are so so excited so we've been kind of working on a potential plan for the past couple of months and I won't give away anything yet but I will say we have tons of really exciting op
portunities of crossovers with the Miss America opportunity and the Air Force wow okay well stay tuned we'll definitely want to hear more about that you know you started competing in pageants during your first year at the Air Force Academy tell me why you wanted to do that because when you think of military and pageants I mean those are Polar Opposites MH so I started competing like you said my freshman year and I felt like at the Academy it is such a difficult year I mean that's a a very very f
ormative year on how your leadership goes learning how to be a freshman and so I'd also lost my mom less than a year prior to that and so I really struggled with my identity so I looked to my cousin who had competed in pageants and I thought that might be something fun but the more I really dug into it the more I saw the crossover of what the military represents and pageants so obviously at the Air Force Academy they care a lot about higher education so do pageants they both care about service s
o now I get to serve as second Lieutenant Marsh and serve our nation as Miss America and I also care about the passion and Leadership and community service so it seemed a perfect opportunity to get to promote my nonprofit the Whitney Marsh foundation in honor of my mom and so even though outwardly they kind of seem very different the more you dive into pageants and the military the more overlap there actually is so here's the best part and I love this I don't know if we can roll the HUD video on

ew endorsement and the real Captain America for the first time ever an active duty military member crowned Miss America her story on the historic win when she joins me live good afternoon everyone I'm Kira Phillips we do begin with the life-threatening weather emergency though from coast to coast right now a powerful winter storm on the move and already jumping snow on the northeast Philadelphia bracing for the most of 6 in with 1 to 3 in farther north then in the west a deadly ice storm Oregon
the latest state to declare an emergency the crippling out ice rather Downing power lines there some residents without power for nearly a week now at least 41 deaths are blamed on the extreme weather some Tesla drivers saying it's so cold they even had trouble charging their Batteries More Than a 100 million people now under winter alerts Nation wide more brutal cold is on the way wind chills this weekend dropping Below Zero from Chicago to Kansas City to Nashville our extreme weather team track
ing it all but we're going to begin with our Samar Theodore she's in a very snowy Philadelphia hey Cara good afternoon that's right so I'm here at Independence Hall I just went out and measured some of the snow just under three inches and the snowfall has been really steady we woke up to a nice coating and it hasn't stopped since uh as a result we have school cancellations commutes the this morning we definitely slowed a lot of the major or main roads in the city are cleared it's the secondary r
oads where you're seeing a lot of issues sidewalks they're doing their best to clear them but like I said with half an inch falling an hour we are looking at those sidewalks quickly coated again here in Philadelphia they went 75 days without an inch of snow and now here we are uh this week seeing two storms back to back bringing those inches for certain now the good news is a lot of the snow should taper off this afternoon but as Melissa will tell you we have cold air coming in right behind it K
ira and I can see it and feel it just looking at you Samar we so appreciate you being there to bring us the latest we'll keep tracking it with you we're also tracking with our Melissa Griffin uh who's in studio uh just checking everything all across the country not just Philly yeah that's right Cara happy to be inside where the snow is coming down in New York it's pretty light though for New York so only expecting about 1 to 2 Ines in our area the heaviest snow though is further south in a place
like Philadelphia where we saw saw Samara 2 to 3 Ines falling there DC just north of DC closer to Baltimore we're seeing 4 to 6 inches of snow and that's why they're under those winter storm warnings there from Baltimore to Philly but the winter weather advisories stretch all the way from New York back through Pittsburg into Columbus as this storm was really taking over the Great Lakes right into the Northeast now I want to show you the timing we're going to continue to see that snowfall throug
h the afternoon but it does wind down pretty quickly behind it it's extremely cold and blustery so even as the snow does clear those roads still very dangerous as the snow that was left behind turns to ice as these temperatures continue to plummet and that's why Here We Go Again wind chill alerts all the way from the plains back through the Deep South by this weekend another major Arctic blast sweeping the country it will feel like negative 17 on Sunday in Chicago back to below zero wind chills
for Saturday morning in Nashville there in Philadelphia you're getting the snow today not a picnic in the park though over the weekend as those brutal wind chills return it feels like single digits up and down the East Coast yet again Cara all right Melissa we'll talk clearly throughout the day and all through the weekend as well thank [Music] you and breaking news now in the race for the White House sources are telling us that South Carolina Senator Tim Scott is actually planning to endorse for
mer president Trump tonight and will actually join him on the campaign Trail in New Hampshire this comes just 4 days from voting in New Hampshire and the primary there and Nikki Haley is really turning up the heat she's inching closer and closer to Donald Trump in the polls and Ronda santis while he's remains at a distant third already putting his energy into South Carolina our zaren Shaw is there on the ground in Manchester and joins me now well here we go already the news starts to break Tim S
cott endorsing Trump no surprise really there's been a lot of talk about that VP position as well but Donald Trump takes it all the way that's a very good point here actually and yeah you're exactly right congressman from South Carolina this is a huge blow to Haley former governor of South Carolina in that state she needs New Hampshire but she also needs to do well in South Carolina and it's looking less and less likely that either can be possible I mean Scott is expected to go with Trump at to
a rally tonight in New Hampshire according to the New York Times and he thinks that Trump is the best person to beat Biden according to the times as well well it's interesting I mean Haley is the one that appointed Tim Scott to the Senate so I mean this just creates more conversation and questions and as it possible we could hear more from Haley's Camp I'm sure we will I I I you know I haven't heard any sort of leaks about uh possible endorsements that could be coming up on her and again it it's
really the path is tough for her even if she were to squeak out a win in New Hampshire on Tuesday what is the game plan for her coming up ahead Trump has pushed very hard his team has pushed hard to have the DNC to change to have the RNC change the rules in some states like Nevada California in order to benefit Trump so the map really favors him going forward and you know the other night I went bar- toar here in Manchester what really struck me is that people here knew exactly who they wanted t
o vote for when I talked to them most people told me Donald Trump it's totally different story from when I came down here four years ago I clearly remember walking into my hotel lobby Kira with campaign AIDS biting their fingers just not knowing at all you know how the rest of this state and the rest of the race would pan out I mean remember Biden only got his footing in Nevada uh and the race effectively ended then in South Carolina for him it is different this time with the Republicans it is a
nd we're also seeing that loyalty isn't necessarily locked in either with this news of Tim Scott coming out now well new Hampshire this year is a bit confusing on the Democratic side you actually spoke to democratic Challenger Dean Phillips ahead of the primary what did he tell you it was a really interesting conversation but first I want to tell you why New Hampshire is so confusing for the Democrats coming up on Tuesday first of all the president isn't even on the ballot I mean look Biden was
fifth place in New Hampshire last time it was very embarrassing for him he didn't do well in Iowa either and so this is what happened the DNC basically decided that South Carolina would be the first primary and it's actually New Hampshire's state law that they go first so they pushed back and they're still holding a primary but no Biden on the ballot I know delegates will leave New Hampshire so the DNC basically calls Tuesday's Democratic vote meaningless I spoke to Dean Phillips last night and
I asked him what a win then looks like for him in this state we started at 0 10 weeks ago if we are in the 20s I think that is uh not just newsworthy I think it's remarkable and if the president as I anticipate will be somewhere in the maybe 50s you know an incumbent president a strong incumbent should be getting in the 80% range that's what Bill Clinton got 84% Barack Obama got 81% still quite a long shuck here many people I spoke to feel his real impact in the race is taking away independence
from Haley who really needs every vote that she can get just further propelling Trump to the nomination is how some folks feel Kira all right zorine appreciate uh the breaking news and the update we'll keep talking throughout the day we're also going to cover the New Hampshire primary of course uh all day Tuesday January 23rd with special coverage as results come in starting at 700 p.m. Eastern right here on ABC News Live Well forgive and forget the bid Administration canceling nearly $5 billion
in student debt today 74,000 people will get some relief under the newly announce plan from the White House our Jo O'Brien has all the details up from the hill there so who exact oh no sorry you're back here with us in studio I apologize I'm so used to going to the hill I'm upstairs go upstairs and we'll talk I'm right up the stairs from you I'm I'm knocking on the ceiling um all right let's talk about who qualifies for the debt cancellation exactly and just how this is all going to work Jay ye
ah so it's about5 billion do it qualifies there about 74,000 Americans that qualify for it really who they are people that have applied to existing income driven programs within the Department of Education and also people that have applied for public service waivers like teachers or nurses or First Responders so they're all people that in some way or another fall into existing programs that the Department of Education has that the Biden Administration has essentially been supercharging and that'
s because they can't do the $400 billion dollar worth of student loan forgiveness that they wanted to do Kira because remember over the summer the Supreme Court struck down the president's student loan forgiveness plan saying that the administration overstepped its Authority so what the administration has been doing is try to use these existing programs to cancel or at least amend whatever debt they can got it so student debt relief was just one of Biden's key campaign promises in 2020 so do you
think I don't know this could have any impact on his reelection campaign well it was a huge campaign promise and particularly as polling shows and in my conversations and others conversation shows with younger voters it's still a significant Drive issue it's one of the reasons why you see the White House consistently trying to make good on that campaign promise because it was a signature promise in 2020 and it is something that young voters have said that they are going to remember this time ar
ound if the president responds to it's why the White House said that despite the fact that they can't do the plan they wanted to do they're still going to look at all these available Avenues as we just discussed to try to cancel whatever debt they can got it t bran thanks coming up rejecting calls from the US and widening the rift Benjamin Netanyahu refusing the notion of a Palestinian State postwar Gaza we head to Tel Aviv for more next whenever news breaks we are here in Israel a nation at war

s glad you're streaming with us his rejection clearly creating a rift with the us as Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu public rejects any notion of a potential Palestinian State post-war Gaza the Israeli leaders saying in any agreement Israel must control all territory west of Jordan meanwhile Aid groups say people in Gaza are starving and that residents living in this war have little to no water or food Israel has also continued to defend itself against those accusations of genocide as
our Patrick reval takes us inside the international court of justice and we do want to warn you some of the video here is difficult to watch is Israel committing genocide in Gaza that is the question before the un's highest court the international court of justice please be [Music] seated one of the most significant and controversial cases held there in years it's a second Hol Israel vehemently rejects it South Africa which brought the case argues Israel has the scale of the destruction resultin
g from the bombardment of Gaza and the deliberate restriction of food water medicines and electricity demonstrates that the government of Israel not Jewish people or Israeli citizens the government of Israel and its military is intent on destroying the Palestinians in Gaza as a group but for most Israelis the case is a painful Distortion the applicant has regrettably put before the court a profoundly distorted factual and legal picture the entirety of its case hinges on a deliberately curated de
contextualized and manipulative description of the reality of current hostilities it was Hamas they say that committed genocidal acts on October 7th killing over 12200 Israelis and taking over 240 hostages and they find the case all the more distressing because the genocide con ion was created in response to the Holocaust nearly 25,000 Palestinians have been killed according to gaza's Hamas run Health Ministry 85% have been internally displaced according to the UN signs South Africa says that co
mbined with dehumanizing rhetoric from Israeli officials points to genocide Israel says its war is aimed at destroying Hamas not Palestinians and that it seeks to protect civilians it's based on a on an international agreement that was formulated uh in the aftermath of the Holocaust to prevent the recurrence of genocide the specific genocide was genocide against Jews on October 7th Israel exped an attempted genocide uh perpetrated by an openly genocidal organization and now Israel in defending i
tself as being accused of genocide so think to how perverse a nightmare this is for us um and to be totally Frank with you it's already a loss for Israel a ruling on whether Israel committed genocide will take years but the court can impose an injunction within weeks demanding Israel end its military operations it boils down to one basic thing saving lives auur CIF is a far-left member of Israel's parliament the only Israeli lawmaker to sign a petition of support for South Africa's genocide case
cassif is a Jewish member of a majority Israeli Arab party and longtime critic of Israel's policies toward Palestinians so that's one of the main reasons why you did this is to just try and get an order to stop the world I mean this is the last Refuge because we are blocked in Israel it can hardly raise our voice as I said so they left us no other way way and option but to appeal to International bodies cif's move has provoked Fury in Israel lawmakers are moving to expel him from Parliament par
ticularly in the area the court has almost no power to enforce its rulings and Israel's prime minister Benjamin Netanyahu has already said Israel will continue its war on Hamas regardless of the Court's rulings breaking the silence is an NGO established by former Israeli soldiers that's gathered evidence of abuses by Israel's military in the West Bank and Gaza the real question up for the court is um does this amount to genocide I would uh personally think the answer would probably be no but uh
still this doesn't clean Israel from I think very very deep questions about its conduct in the past three months most legal Scholars say it's extremely difficult to predict what the court will rule but the stakes are very high if the court were to rule that Israel should end its military operation that could also apply to the US and its help for Israel and that could mean putting the US in the position between choosing whether to end its support for Israel or ignoring the court and if it were to
ignore the court that would be a huge blow for international law that's just one of the reasons why this case is so consequential Patrick Revel and Israel Forest Patrick thank you so much well as the Israel Gaza tension continues to spread the US military is shuffling its warships bracing for any escalation and possible rescue missions foreign correspondent Maggie rouy has more now from the USS baton in the Mediterranean hey yeah we're on board the USS batan it's part of three ships traveling a
s a unit in the east Eastern Mediterranean right now about 500 Miles off the coast of Israel uh this group is called an amphibious ready group uh meaning they are ready to offload Marines and all of this equipment that you see from ship to the shore and this is a huge feet you can see uh some of these light armored vehicles around me right now they have more than 80 vehicles on board this ship they have more than 2500 Marines and Navy sailors uh they have dozens and dozens of aircrafts as well w
hat's really special about this ship is that their sole mission is to be able get all of this everything you see off the ship and on the shore and this this is really the core of that mission this is It's called The Well deck it's about a third of the ship and this entire area can be flooded in just 20 minutes and they're able to transport everything that you see on this ship to the shore they can get all of these vehicles all of the Marines from ship to shore in less than a day so that is a maj
or impact and when you're talking about the USS baton and the two other ships that's traveling with its presence in the region right now this is what we're talking about every Marine is telling us they are ready to go at a moment's notice meaning they can get to shore whenever they are needed uh they can do things like evacuations they can have amphibious assaults it's an incredibly powerful group and it's this presence they're hoping can deter a wider war in the region now as we're seeing there
are questions of if this presence is really doing that but you know every Marine we've spoken to acknowledges the power of having this presence of the Navy and the Marine in the region they also tell us they understand the added significance and importance of being here right now the events of October 7th and the war afterwards happened right in the middle of this deployment and they say it added a a dose of reality to the situation that they're now living with on board this ship Maggie ruy tha

r the past couple of months and I won't give away anything yet but I will say we have tons of really exciting opportunities of crossovers with the Miss America opportunity and the Air Force wow okay well stay tuned we'll definitely want to hear more about that you know you started competing in pageants during your first year at the Air Force Academy tell me why you wanted to do that because when you think of military and pageants I mean those are Polar Opposites so I started competing like you s
aid my freshman year and I felt like at the Academy it is such a difficult year I mean that's a a very very formative year on how your leadership goes learning how to be a freshman and so I'd also lost my mom less than a year prior to that and so I really struggled with my identity so I looked to my cousin who had competed in pageants and I thought that might be something fun but the more I really dug into it the more I saw the crossover of what the military represents and pageants so obviously
at the Air Force Academy they care a lot about higher education SOA pageants they both care about service so now I get to service second Lieutenant Marsh and serve our nation as Miss America and I also care about the passion and Leadership and community service so it seemed a perfect opportunity to get to promote my nonprofit the Whitney Marsh foundation in honor of my mom and so even though outwardly they kind of seem very different the more you dive into pageants and the military the more over
lap there actually is so here's the best part and I love this I don't know if we can roll the HUD video once again I see you strapping in there uh are you in the backseat or are you flying there I'm in the back seat so I have a female fighter pilot up front she's the only female fighter pilot in her entire Squadron out at Nellis Air Force Base and she's just I I can't spank highly enough of her she's just fantastic so she brought me on that ride about a month ago so why did you choose the Air Fo
rce Academy and why flying so I went to space camp a long long time ago uh I believe I was going into the 8th grade and I wanted to be an astronaut really bad and every time I spoke to these astronauts or looked into their background I saw a lot of them had one thing in common and it was being a military pilot so then I started to dive in how can I become a military pilot and a test pilot the best place to do that is the Air Force Academy they have the most pilot slots they have the best trainin
g to get people into it they pay you go to go to school and you get amazing education all at the same time so I made it my goal to go to the Air Force Academy and I knew I wanted to be a more competitive applicant going in so my parents uh were fortunate enough to allow me to start flying before I went to into the academy around the age of 15 and so I really fell in love with civilan flying and I had an amazing pilot instructor JD Williams and the rest is now history well I'll tell you what you'

ket Street I just measured the snow here we've reached about 3 in of snow still counting even though I know the storm will begin to taper off soon it's still leaving behind really treacherous driving conditions a lot of the primary roads relatively clear you get to those secondary roads it's really dicey difficult walking around I have seen a lot of the SEPTA but is still moving that's their Metro System here so it's good that folks can still get around but you know if you can stay indoors it's
one of those days that you want to here in Philadelphia Cara yeah no kidding Samara thank you so much we'll keep talking to you also Melissa Griffin is tracking everything all across the country for us where do you want to begin Melissa car I want to begin right in the Northeast where we're tracking those Winter Wonderland conditions from DC to Philly right up to New York you can look on the radar though it's starting to lighten up a bit in New York so about an in in or two that we've gotten if
that so much lighter but when you look further south I'm talking about South Jersey back through Philadelphia and even into parts of Delaware back through DC and Baltimore that's when they're getting more in the range of those 2 to four plus inches so that's where the heavier snow is falling right now and that's where you saw Samara with those winter weather conditions and those winter storm mornings continuing through late tonight from Philly back through Baltimore winter weather advisory stret
ching across much of the Ohio Valley as well including parts of Ohio where I want to show you the effect snow because we got to talk about that too after Western New York got 3 to 5et over the past couple of days parts of now Ohio getting into that and into Michigan this lick effect snow band very stubborn band dropping 12 to 18 Ines there but look at the storm that we've been tracking the snow really going to clear out pretty quickly by tonight cold and blustering conditions really widespread a
cross the Northeast because our next major Arctic blast is on the way windchill advisories for several States across the Midwest into the Tennessee Valley hard freeze warnings there Deep South New Orleans back through Jacksonville you're in those windshield advisories as well so not even the southern states getting in on this because yet again we're watching for these record cold temperatures and look at this weekend in Kansas City it feels like8 on Saturday netive 17 on Sunday in Chicago and in
the Northeast Cara yet again we're dealing with major cold blast with single digit wind chills right through the entire weekend okay Melissa thank you and we got a bit of breaking news to you right now we've got some dramatic images coming out of Virginia where the video is showing what appears to be a small plane making emergency landing on the highway there the single engine plane blocking all Lanes right now it's unclear at this time how many people were on board that plane emergency crews s
ay no injuries were reported we'll follow all the details via V Dot [Music] there so we also have breaking news in the race for the White House sources telling us here at ABC news that South Carolina Senator Tim Scott is planning to endorse former president Trump tonight and will join him on the campaign Trail in New Hampshire this comes just four days from voting in the primary where Nikki Haley is turning up the heat inching closer and closer to Donald Trump in the polls Ronda Sanz remains at
a distant third already putting his energy into South Carolina our zaren Shaw is still there on the ground in Manchester joins me once again so zaren Tim Scott endorsing Trump pretty big news uh we shouldn't forget that Nikki Haley actually appointed Scott to the Senate uh when she was governor so little uh I guess lack of loyalty here kir politics makes very interesting bedfellows and just a few moments ago the Haley Camp released this statement they said it is interesting that Trump's lining u
p with all the Washington insiders when he claimed he wanted to drain the swamp but the fellas are going to do what the fellas are going to to do look Trump had reportedly been courting Senator Scott a congressman from South Carolina this is a very huge blow to Haley former governor of South Carolina she needs this state New Hampshire but she also needs to do well in South Carolina and all of this is looking less and less like likely for her that it can be possible Scott is expected to be at the
rally at a rally with Trump tonight um and you know he said that Trump was the best person to beat Biden reportedly so what are we hearing from people in New Hampshire just ahead of the voting on Tuesday so here we're actually planning on sitting down with a group of undecided voters tomorrow let me tell you prop to my producers for finding these folks because it is not easy to find them most voters told me that they have made up their mind this is a race look either for or against Donald Trump
is what they tell me there's three total viable people in this race right now most people know where they stand New Hampshire is the first Primary in this state and normally it doesn't have the last say but the truth is we could really know whether Trump is essentially a shoe in or not come this Tuesday the Gap in the polls between him and Haley it just keeps widening here she had hoped to win by a landslide and now her team is saying they're looking at second place so they're hoping for second
place okay seren sha it's going to get busy and we're going to cover of course the New Hampshire primary throughout the day on Tuesday January 23rd with special coverage as results come in starting at 7:00 p.m. Eastern right here on ABC News live zoren thank you well from the campaign Trail to all the trials of Donald Trump ABC News has now obtained video of an April 2023 deposition by the former president as part of the New York AG's $370 million civil fraud lawsuit in the video Trump calls hi
s real estate portfolio the Mona Lisa's of properties and suggest that his assets are worth far more than what appeared on property valuations our senior investigative correspondent Aon kki joins us now with uh the video he got his hands on let's just like listen to a part of that deposition Aaron and I'll get you to weigh in um if you look at Biden he certainly does business and and uh politics at the same time but I felt I wanted to be a legitimate uh president I didn't have to be from the sta
ndpoint of even using the word legitimate I think it's important that you if you're running the country you're not doing business now just to add to that the recent house oversight committee report says that Trump's business has received millions of dollars from foreign entities from 20 different countries you've reported on that all during his presidency the 156 report by the house Democrats was literally called White House for sale so just lay out the facts here for us as now we think about th
at in addition to what we're hearing in this deposition yeah because that was a bit of an aside and what otherwise was a five and a half hour deposition that the former president sat for back in April Kira as part of the Attorney General's civil fraud lawsuit that has now ended the trial's over we're still awaiting a verdict from the judge and the former president was being asked in that moment why or whether he was still involved in his company while he was in office and he had said that he tur
ned most of its day-to-day running over to uh to his son Eric and and his children had other varying roles within the company but the Attorney General's office had included Eric Trump and Donald Trump J J in the Civil fraud lawsuit and said they were just as culpable as their father for doing a decade's worth of business with fraudulent financial statements that the company prepared but the former president as you heard Kira couldn't resist a little jab at Joe Biden even back in April when he wa
s giving his deposition as part of his legal case so the Attorney General's office says that Trump inflated his net worth by at least $2.2 billion in just one year and then benefited by receiving more favorable terms on his loans and insurance policies do you think this deposition hurts the facts in his case here well it certainly gave the Attorney General's office something to work with uh Trump ultimately testified so the deposition itself was only played during opening statements but they rea
lly uh dug in on him on the witness stand about whether he knew that the statements being prepared that mentioned his wealth were exaggerated and and they they showed evidence that Trump just kind of wanted to appear wealthier than he was if somebody said he was worth a billion he'd say make it two if it was two billion he'd say make it three and and Trump never took the bait during the deposition Kira uh but it does give us a rare window into the kind of tactics that he employed to kind of exag
gerate how successful he perhaps really was we'll track every detail Aon kerki thank you so it happens every year and this year is no different it's just a lot colder anti-abortion rights Advocates once again gathering on the National Mall here in DC for the right to life march despite the snow though they're listening to speeches and marching past the capital and the Supreme Court and it doesn't seem to have affected the turnout RJ O'Brien joining us for more there is another difference though
uh that this March it's the second event since June 2022 when the Supreme Court uh ruled and ended the Federal Protection for abortion rights uh talking about Row versus Wade 14 States now enforce these bans on abortion uh what are organizers of this March hoping to achieve just in light of what has changed within the past two years yeah and I think it's best summed up by a a quote that the president of of national right for life one of the groups involved in this March gave to USA Today about a
day ago and she said it's an opportunity to show people quote we are not going away but to your point Kira the larger National landscape in the battle over abortion rights has shifted completely after the overturning of row and now it's very much a state byst state battle and you have seen abortion rights Advocates have some serious wins in the last few months really the last few year on the abortion rights landscape as it relates to state-by-state battles think about that ballot measure in Ohi
o for example so it's shaping up to not only be a state-by-state battle but also something that defines very likely at least in some form or another the shape of the 2024 election because while it happened you know about two years ago 2024 will be the first presidential election since the overturning of Rome so the Biden campaign has openly stated uh that it plans to make the president's campaign uh synonymous with the fight to preserve abortion rights in the US so how are we going to see this i
ssue abortion already make its way into the campaign well the Biden campaign and Democrats generally firstly believe this is a winning issue for them and secondly believe and and they say that the midterm showed that in addition to other elections in other states uh the Virginia legislature race not long ago etc etc but but additionally they're using it as an issue to hammer Republicans specifically to hammer Trump I'll give you a good example Trump at a fox Town Hall not long ago said that he w
as quote unquote proud to have appointed the conservative justices and shaped the ideological balance of the Court leading to the overturning of row that notion of being proud was instantly blasted out on X by Biden surrogates and by the Democratic and by the Biden campaign itself trying to hang this idea of trump bragging about getting rid of roie Wade around his neck and make it a key issue for 2024 all right Jo O Brien thanks so much and we'll follow the march of course also coming up passeng
ers aboard that Alaska Airlines flight where that door just flew right off they're speaking out and there's more lawsuits to talk about as well we'll be back in a minute whenever news breaks we are here in Israel a nation at war after that brutal surprise attack by Hamas on the ground in Ukraine reporting from Leon main the scene of a horrific mass shooting ABC News live is right there everywhere from the scene of that deadly missile strike in Dena Ukraine reporting from the earthquake in Turkey

tory 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 America's number one streaming news I have a point of contact they're expecting us this our secret world we have do you think we're going to be safe I don't know this is my pen inside that pen is a slice of human brain these are assassinations of people are going to be murdered there's really no telling what some of them will do oh my God it's
happening everywhere and anywhere [Music] wow all right here we go you ready let's do it yes it's the show America wants and America needs right now this is what would you do let's go how are you I H you so what will you be watching Saturdays on ABC News live would you do hey I guess I just found out the what would you do marathon 2 to 6 Eastern every Saturday on ABC News live my favorite [Music] show glad you're streaming with us well Boeing and Alaska Airlines are now facing multiple lawsuits
from passengers on flight 1282 after that door just blew off in mid-flight narrowly avoiding pretty massive disaster in a news conference announcing the suit passengers are describing those very moments that had happened on the flight looking at the flight attendant's faces um it was clear to me this wasn't going to go well I'm not prepared for this I wasn't prepared to die on this flight uh it was just going to be a quick flight getting back to Southern California and um so now that's a thought
that's my eyes are glued to that opening um and I'm just wondering what's going to happen next and just thinking about the fact that this this is it I mean just this is it been following the story out of Los Angeles so Jacqueline these passengers truly believed they were going to die on this flight I don't think any of us realized how intense uh their feelings were because we had not heard from them so how do you think these statements are going to impact the lawsuits that's exactly right Kira
I mean you have to think that they are talking about intense emotional trauma they are painting a picture of what those moments were like on that plane I mean there's a gaping hole in the side of the plane they're describing they think they're going to die they're texting their loved ones uh that they love them because they think they will never see them again there are masks that are down and you have to remember when this first happened the NTSB chair explained it was an explosive event there
was debris flying everywhere it was very chaotic so in regards to this lawsuit it is very important for the victims to be explained exactly what they went through to hopefully you know win some more damages through this lawsuit Kira so Alaska Airlines has offered all passengers $1,500 uh and a complete refund for that flight but clearly the passengers uh are asking for a lot more than that in this lawsuit exactly I mean the the damages are unspecified but you have to think about you're saying th
at you know from the perspective of the victims I just experienced this very very traumatic situation and you're telling me you're going to give me $1,500 and a refund of what I paid for this Fair no dice no so they want you know more than that and which is why they are explaining just how traumatic this was they're suing Boeing for product liability they're accusing Boeing and Alaska Airlines uh for negligence and ultimately they want their attorney attorney's fees paid for and they are demandi
ng a jury trial so by explaining all of this they're hoping that they can get a lot more than $1,500 and a refund Kira well sticking with the airlines here uh Atlas Air uh Boeing cargo plane had to return to Miami International Airport After experiencing an engine malfunction soon after departure what more do we know about that so we know that a witness saw sparks flying from the cargo plane it made that emergency landing and yes according to that FAA incident report uh the postflight inspection
revealed a softball size hole above engine number two so the NTSB is investigating Boeing says no comment they're actually deferring all comments um to the airlin so ultimately uh we'll see how this plays out but it's definitely not a good look for Bo and Kira yeah it sure certainly isn't um it's just watching their stock you know drop as well too I mean the news is impacting their money jacqulyn Lee in Los Angeles thank you so much well potential historic Discovery in Florida McDale Airbase uh
Air Force Base rather in Tampa is now confirming its finding of possible Graves from a lost black Cemetery the base began a formal investigation and search for the graves actually back in 2019 now Julie Solomon of our ABC affiliate in Tampa digs a little deeper into the story in an open field on mcdill Air Force Base in Tampa officials have located more than 120 Graves belonging mainly to African-Americans the Lost Cemetery known as Port Tampa cemetery is located near tanker way gate not far fr

hat the unmanned Craft only about the size of a passenger car became the fifth country's space mission to land on the moon it's communicating actually with that Japanese space agency and still trying to determine though if the mission is a success stay tuned for more details well has just announced that it's planning on cutting more than 2,300 jobs impacting nearly 133% of its corporate staff and closing Five stores this is all being done in an effort to trim cost and redirect spending to improv
e customer service meanwhile after moving higher the past two weeks mortgage rates actually fell this week dropping to the lowest level since May of 2023 however this morning it was announced that existing home sales was the slowest in 30 years all right we threw a lot at you but that's why we have Alexis kristofer cuz she's going to explain what this all means I'm going to try Cara that's for sure let's start with the the housing market and those mortgage rates you mentioned uh existing home sa
les for all of last year they fell to their lowest level since 1995 and there are a couple of main reasons for that one is affordability Was Out Of Reach for so many Americans especially for those first-time home buyers right we had higher mortgage rates and also the the price of a home Rose in December remember the price of a the median price of an existing home in this country nearly $383,000 that's up about 4.5% year overy year let me get to some of the good news now because mortgage rates ar
e trending lower and this past week Freddy Max says the average rate on a 30-year loan is 6.67% remember or 6.6% I should say back in October we had rates nearing 8% so here's a real life example of what that looks like if you are purchasing a $400,000 home with 20% down at the prevailing interest rate today your monthly mortgage payment would be about $260 less than it would have been in October so so the housing market still lots of challenges uh remain but the fact that these mortgage rates a
re starting to come down should help loosen things as the year moves along the Macy layoffs they come at the same time as other major brands such as Wayfair Sports Illustrated or letting go a lot of their employees as well let's just talk about the impact that this could have on the market yeah we're not even 3 weeks into the new year and already thousands of layoffs kir across a number of different Industries mostly Tech Google uh Amazon laying off workers we know in just the past few days uh a
lso the banking sector with City Group laying off about 20,000 people you mentioned Sports Illustrated in iconic magazine they've had some issues unique to themselves but nearly all of their staff today uh was let go so um you know the layoffs uh seem Troublesome of course but we still have to remember overall we do have a solid job market all right well that's good news and we've got this internal Memo from yesterday where the Google CEO actually told employees to expect more layoffs there um w
hat do we know about that well look Google and a lot of the tech companies over hired especially during the early days of the pandemic when we were all going online to do what we needed to do because we were stuck at home and now they're trying to write their payrolls again bring things back to a a normal time and so they're streamlining so you're seeing uh these layoffs in these particular sectors but overall unemployment still near a 50-year l here lots of hiring happening in areas like Health
Care uh and hospitality and Leisure so uh there's a lot to like in the job market right now as well good we like to end on a high note Alexis Christoper is thank you sure and thanks to all of you for streaming with us I'm Kira Phillips a lot more news on the other side we'll be right back look up there's got to be something out there we were shocked scared to death oh wow my name is cat Patterson and I am an alien abductee extraterrestrial intelligence aliens we are getting closer to the gravel

Kira Phillips we do begin with the life-threatening weather emergency though from coast to coast right now a powerful winter storm on the move and already dumping snow on the northeast Philadelphia bracing for the most of 6 in with 1 to 3 in is farther north then in the west a deadly ice storm Oregon the latest state to declare an emergency the crippling I ice rather Downing power lines there some residents without power for nearly a week now at least 41 deaths are blamed on the extreme weather
some Tesla drivers saying it's so cold they even had trouble charging their Batteries More Than a 100 million people now under winter alerts Nationwide more brutal cold is on the way wind chills this weekend dropping Below Zero from Chicago Chicago to Kansas City to Nashville our extreme weather team tracking it all but we're going to begin with our Samar Theodore she's in a very snowy Philadelphia hey Cara good afternoon that's right so I'm here at Independence Hall I just went out and measure
d some of the snow just under three in and the snowfall has been really steady we woke up to a nice coating and it hasn't stopped since uh as a result we have school cancellations commutes this morning were definitely slowed a lot of the major or main roads in the city are cleared it's the secondary roads where seeing a lot of issues sidewalks they're doing their best to clear them but like I said with half an inch falling an hour we are looking at those sidewalks quickly coated again here in Ph
iladelphia they went 715 days without an inch of snow and now here we are uh this week seeing two storms back to back bringing those inches for certain now the good news is a lot of the snow should taper off this afternoon but as Melissa will tell you we have cold air coming in right behind it Kira and I can see it and feel it just looking at you tomorrow we so appreciate you being there to bring us the latest we'll keep tracking it with you we're also tracking with our Melissa Griffin uh who's
in studio uh just checking everything all across the country not just Philly yeah that's right Cara happy to be inside where the snow is coming down in New York it's pretty light though for New York so only expecting about 1 to two inches in our area the heaviest snow though is further south in a place like Philadelphia where we saw saw Samara 2 to 3 Ines falling there DC just north of DC closer to Baltimore we're seeing 4 to 6 Ines of snow and that's why they're under those winter storm warning
s there from Baltimore to Philly but the winter weather advisories stretch all the way from New York back through Pittsburgh into Columbus as this storm was really taking over the Great Lakes right into the Northeast now I want to show you the timing we're going to continue to see that snowfall through the afternoon but it does wind down pretty quickly behind it it's extremely cold and blustery so even as the snow does clear those roads still very dangerous as the snow that was left behind turns
to ice as these temperatures continue to plummet and that's why Here We Go Again wind chill alerts all the way from the plains back through the Deep South by this weekend another major Arctic blast sweeping the country it will feel like negative 17 on Sunday in Chicago back to below zero wind chills for Saturday morning in Nashville there in Philadelphia you're getting the snow today not a picnic in the park though over the weekend as those brutal wind chills return it feels like single digits
up and down the East Coast yet again Cara all right Melissa we will talk clearly throughout the day and all through the weekend as well thank you and breaking news now in the race for the White House sources are telling us that South Carolina Senator Tim Scott is actually planning to endorse former president Trump tonight and will actually join him on the campaign Trail in New Hampshire this comes just 4 days from voting in New Hampshire in the primary there and n Haley is really turning up the
heat she's inching closer and closer to Donald Trump in the polls and Ronda santis while he's remains at a distant third already putting his energy into South Carolina our Zen Shaw is there on the ground in Manchester and joins me now well here we go already the news starts to break Tim Scott endorsing Trump no surprise really there's been a lot of talk about that VP position as well if but Donald Trump takes it all the way that's a very very good point here actually and yeah you're exactly righ
t congressman from South Carolina this is a huge blow to Haley former governor of South Carolina in that state she needs New Hampshire but she also needs to do well in South Carolina and it's looking less and less likely that either can be possible I mean Scott is expected to go with Trump at to a rally tonight in New Hampshire according to the New York Times and he thinks that Trump is the best person to beat Biden according to the times as well well it's interesting I mean hey haly is the one
that appointed Tim Scott to the Senate so I mean this just creates more conversation and questions and is it possible we could hear more from Haley's Camp I'm sure we will I I I you know I haven't heard any sort of leaks about uh possible endorsements that could be coming up on her and again it it's really the path is tough for her even if she were to squeak out a win in New Hampshire on Tuesday what is the game plan for her coming up ahead Trump has pushed very hard his team has pushed hard to
have the DNC to change to have the RNC change the rules in some states like Nevada California in order to benefit Trump so the map really favors him going forward and you know the other night I went bar to bar here in Manchester what really struck me is that people here knew exactly who they wanted to vote for when I talked to them most people told me Donald Trump it's totally different story from when I came down here four years ago I clearly remember walking into my hotel lobby Kira with campa
ign AIDS biting their fingers just not knowing at all you know how the rest of this state and the rest of the race would pan out I mean remember Biden only got his footing in Nevada and the race effectively ended then in South Carolina for him it is different this time with the Republicans it is and we're also seeing that loyalty isn't necessarily locked in either with this news of Tim Scott coming out now well New Hampshire this year is a bit confusing on the Democratic side you actually spoke
to Democratic Challenger Dean Phillips ahead of the primary what did he tell you it was a really interesting conversation but first I want to tell you why New Hampshire is so confusing for the Democrats coming up on Tuesday first of all the president isn't even on the ballot I mean look Biden was fifth place in New Hampshire last time it was very embarrassing for him he didn't do well in Iowa either and so this is what happened the DNC basically decided that South Carolina would be the first pri
mary and it's actually New Hampshire's state law that they go first so they pushed back and they're still holding a primary but no Biden on the ballot and no delegates will leave New Hampshire so the DNC basically calls Tuesday's Democratic vote meaningless I spoke to Dean Phillips last night and I asked him what a win then looks like for him in this state we started at zero 10 weeks ago if we are in the 20s I think that is uh not just newsworthy I think it's remarkable and if the president as I
anticipate will be somewhere in the maybe 50s you know an incumbent president a strong incumbent should be getting in the 80% range that's what Bill Clinton got 84% Barack Obama got 81% still quite a long shuck here many people I spoke to feel his real impact in the race is taking away independence from Haley who really needs every vote that she can get just further propelling Trump to the nomination is how some folks feel Kira all right zor Shaw appreciate the breaking news and the update we'l
l keep talking throughout the day we're also going to cover the New Hampshire primary of course uh all day Tuesday January 23rd with special coverage as results come in starting at 7:00 p.m. Eastern right here on ABC News Live Well forgive and forget the Biden Administration canceling nearly billion do in student debt today 74,000 people will get some relief under the newly announced plan from the White House our Jo O'Brien has all the details up from the hill there so who exact oh no sorry you'
re back here with us in studio I apologize I'm so used to going to the hill I'm upstairs go upstairs and we'll talk I'm right up the stairs from you I'm knocking on the ceiling all right let's talk about who qualifies for the debt cancellation exactly and just how this is all going to work Jay yeah so it's about $5 billion do it qualifies there about 74,000 Americans that qualify for it really who they are people that have applied to existing income driven programs within the Department of Educa
tion and also people that have applied for public service waivers like teachers or nurses or First Responders so they're all people that in some way or another fall into existing programs that the Department of Education has that the Biden Administration has essentially been supercharging and that's because they can't do the $400 billion dollar worth of student loan forgiveness that they wanted to do Kira because remember over the summer the Supreme Court struck down the president's student loan
forgiveness plan saying that the administration overstepped its Authority so what the administration has been doing is try to use these existing programs to cancel or at least amend whatever debt they can got it so student debt relief was just one of Biden's key campaign promises in 2020 so do you think I don't know this could have any impact on his reelection campaign well it was a huge campaign promise and particularly as polling shows and in my conversations and others conversations shows wi
th younger voters it's still a significant driving issue it's one of the reasons why you see the White House consistently trying to make good on that campaign promise because it was a signature promise in 2020 and it is something that young voters have said that they are going to remember this time around if the president responds to it's why the White House said that despite the fact that they can't do the plan they wanted to do they're still going to look at all these available Avenues as we j
ust discussed to try to cancel whatever debt they can got it t bran thanks coming up rejecting calls from the US and widening the rift Benjamin Netanyahu refusing the of a Palestinian State postwar Gaza we head to Tel Aviv for more next tonight with new storm alerts across the country what to expect plus the Red Sea crisis as tensions spread in the Middle East region more Americans turn to the most watched newscast on television World News Tonight with David mure Sunday morning with a New Hampsh
ire vote just days away and DeSantis already looking ahead to South Carolina can Haley make any dent in Trump's big lead are we just getting closer to a Biden Trump rematch the PowerHouse round T takes it on Sunday morning on ABC's this week me with them Good Vibes on my phone everything is so little bit of sun more just a little bit breathing more just a little bit smile little more a minut I've been running through thees my everything is so little bit of sunsh Good Morning [Music] [Applause] [
Music] America glad you're streaming with us his rejection clearly creating a rift with the us as Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu publicly rejects any notion of a potential Palestinian State post-war Gaza the Israeli leaders saying in any agreement Israel must control all territory west of Jordan meanwhile Aid groups say people in Gaza are starving and that residents living in this war have little to no water or food Israel has also continued to defend itself against those accusations
of genocide as our Patrick reval takes us inside the international court of justice and we do want to warn you some of the video here is difficult to watch is Israel committing gen side in Gaza that is the question before the un's highest court the international court of justice please be [Music] seated one of the most significant and controversial cases held there in years it's a second Israel vehemently rejects it South Africa which brought the case argues Israel has the scale of the destructi
on resulting from the bombardment of Gaza and the deliberate restriction of food water medicines and electricity demonstrates that the government of Israel not Jewish people or Israeli citizens the government of Israel and its military is intent on destroying the Palestinians in Gaza as a group but for most Israelis the case is a painful Distortion the applicant has regrettably put before the court a profoundly distorted factual and legal picture the entirety of its case hinges on a deliberately
curated decontextualized and manipulative description of the reality of current hostilities it was Hamas they say that committed genocidal acts on October 7th killing over 12200 Israelis and taking over 240 hostages and they find the case all the more distressing because the genocide convention was created in response to the Holocaust nearly 20 5,000 Palestinians have been killed according to gaza's Hamas run Health Ministry 85% have been internally displaced according to the UN signs South Afr
ica says that combined with dehumanizing rhetoric from Israeli officials points to genocide Israel says its war is aimed at destroying Hamas not Palestinians and that it seeks to protect civilians it's based on a on an international agreement that was formulated uh in the aftermath of the Holocaust to prevent the recurrence of genocide the spefic genocide was genocide against Jews on October 7th Israel experiened an attempted genocide uh perpetrated by an openly genocidal organization and now Is
rael in defending itself is being accused of genocide so think to how perverse a nightmare this is for us um and to be totally Frank with you it's already a loss for Israel a ruling on whether Israel committed genocide will take years but the court can impose an injunction within weeks demanding Israel end its military oper operations it boils down to one basic thing saving lives Aur CIF is a far-left member of Israel's parliament the only Israeli lawmaker to sign a petition of support for South
Africa's genocide case cassif is a Jewish member of a majority Israeli Arab party and longtime critic of Israel's policies toward Palestinians so that's one of the main reasons why you did this is to just try and get an order to stop the War I mean this is the last Refuge because we are blocked in Israel it can hardly raise our voice as I said so they left us no other way and option but to appeal to International B cif's move has provoked Fury in Israel lawmakers are moving to expel him from Pa
rliament particularly in the the court has almost no power to enforce its rulings and Israel's prime minister Benjamin Netanyahu has already said Israel will continue its war on Hamas regardless of the Court's rulings breaking the silence is an NGO established by former Israeli soldiers that's gathered evidence of abuses by Israel's military in the West Bank and Gaza the real question up for the court is um does this amount to genocide I would uh personally think the answer would probably be no
but uh still this doesn't clean Israel from I think very very deep questions about its conduct in the past three months most legal Scholars say it's extremely difficult to predict what the court will rule but the stakes are very high if the court were to rule that Israel should end its military operation that could also apply to the US and its help for Israel and that could mean putting the US in the position between choosing whether to end its support for Israel or ignoring the court and if it
were to ignore the court that would be a huge blow for international law and that's just one of the reasons why this case is so consequential Patrick reval and Israel Forest Patrick thank you so much well as the Israel Gaza tension continues to spread the US military is shuffling its warships bracing for any escalation and possible rescue missions foreign correspondent Maggie ruy has more now from the USS baton in the Mediterranean hey yeah we're on board the USS batan it's part of three ships t
raveling as a unit in the Eastern Mediterranean right now about 500 Miles off the coast of Israel this group is called an amphibious ready group uh meaning they are ready to offload Marines and all of this equipment that you see from ship to the shore this is a huge feet you can see uh some of these light armored vehicles around me right now they have more than 80 vehicles on board this ship they have more than 2500 Marines and Navy sailors uh they have dozens and dozens of aircrafts as well wha
t's really special about this ship is that their sole mission is to be able to get all of this everything you see off the ship and on the shore and this this is really the core of that mission this is It's called The Well deck it's about a third of the ship and this entire area can be flooded in just 20 minutes and they're able to transport everything that you see on this ship to the shore they can get all of these vehicles all of the Marines from ship to shore in less than a day so that is a ma
jor impact and when you're talking about the USS baton and the two other ships that's traveling with its presence in the region right now this is what we're talking about every Marine is telling us they are ready to go at a moment's notice meaning they can get to shore whenever they are needed uh they can do things like evacuations they can have amphibious assaults it's an incredibly powerful group and it's this presence they're hoping can deter a wider war in the region now as we're seeing ther
e are questions of if this presence is really doing that but you know every Marine we've spoken to acknowledges the power of having this presence of the Navy and the Marine in the region they also tell us they understand the added significance and importance of being here right now know the events of October 7th and the war afterwards happened right in the middle of this deployment and they say it added a a dose of reality to the situation that they're now living with on board this ship Maggie R

nother type of Runway Landing her newest rank of Miss America Madison March now the first active duty military member to win the pageants title in its nearly 100-year history leaving this pilot select D flying high your Miss America 2024 is Miss Colorado Madison the 22-year-old second lieutenant in the Air Force and recent graduate from its Academy in Colorado has a degree in physics with a focus on astronomy and is not only training to be a military pilot but she's also pursuing a master's degr
ee at Harvard all of this while taking on the title of Miss America joining me now second Lieutenant Miss America 2024 Madison March oh my gosh Madison talk about breaking stereotypes girlfriend how did the air force uh react did you get a Thunderbirds fly over yet no but I mean they are so so excited so we've been kind of working on a potential plan for the past couple of months and I won't give away anything yet but I will say we have tons of really exciting opportunities of crossovers with th
e Miss America opportunity and the Air Force wow okay well stay tuned we'll definitely want to hear more about that you know you started competing in pageants during your first year at the Air Force Academy tell me why you wanted to do that because when you think of military and pageants I mean those are Polar Opposites so I started competing like you said my freshman year and I felt like at the Academy it is such a difficult year I mean that's a very very formative year on how your leadership g
oes learning how to be a freshman and so i' had also lost my mom less than a year prior to that and so I really struggled with my identity so I looked to my cousin who had competed in pageants and I thought that might be something fun but the more I really dug into it the more I saw the crossover of what the military represents and pageants so obviously at the Air Force Academy they care a lot about higher education so do pageants they both care about service so now I get to service second Lieut
enant Marsh and serve our nation as Miss America and I also care about the passion and Leadership and community service so it seemed a perfect opportunity to get to promote my nonprofit the Whitney Marsh foundation in honor of my mom and so even though outwardly they kind of seem very different the more you dive into pageants and the military the more overlap there actually is so here's the best part and I love this I don't know if we can roll the HUD video once again I see you strapping in ther
e are you in the back seat or are you flying there I'm in the backseat so I have a female fighter pilot up front she's the only female fighter pilot and her entire Squadron out at Nellis Air Force Base and she's just I I can't spin Kylie enough of her she's just fantastic so she brought me on that ride about a month ago so why did you choose the Air Force Academy and why flying so I went to space camp a long long time ago uh I believe I was going into the eighth grade and I wanted to be an astro
naut really bad and every time I spoke to these astronauts or looked into their background I saw a lot of them had one thing in common and it was being a military pilot so then I started to dive in how can I become a military pilot and a test pilot the best place to do that is the Air Force Academy they have the most pilot slots they have the best training to get people into it they pay you go to go to school and you get amazing education all at the same time so I made it my goal to go to the Ai
r Force Academy and I knew I wanted to be a more competitive applicant going in so my parents uh were fortunate enough to allow me to start flying before I went into the academy around the age of 15 and so I really fell in love with civilian flying and I had an amazing pilot instructor JD Williams and the rest is now history well I'll tell you what you're going to continue to make history and uh before we go I do want to show some pictures and lift up your mom I know you lost her to pancreatic c
ancer and that is going to be something you're going to focus on uh and raise awareness for I have no doubt your mom is looking down on you working through you uh your spirit is as strong as hers congratulations Madison uh I know you're making her proud and you'll continue to do so thank you so much and thank you for having me today it was our honor thanks for streaming with us I'm Kira Phillips a lot more news on the other [Music] side we can change the course of history you will fight against

ency landing a small plane touching down on a highway in Virginia we've got new information and we'll tell you what we're learning about those passengers on board and on the attack Republican presidential candidates lashing out at each other with just days until the New Hampshire primary how voters are feeling there and the new endorsement for Donald Trump H everyone I'm Kira Phillips and I'm Terry Moran but we begin with that breaking new news out of New Mexico a grand jury has now indicted Ale
c Baldwin on an involuntary manslaughter charge in the deadly shooting of cinematographer helina Hutchins on the New Mexico set of the movie rust prosecutors had initially dropped their case against Baldwin last year now Baldwin's attorneys say we look forward to our day in court let's bring in our jacqulyn Lee also our legal contributor Brian buckmire jacine New Mexico grand jury heard evidence presented by the special prosecutors talk to us about what is exactly in this new indictment yes that
's right Kira and Terry you know it's also worth noting it's one year to the day that he was initially charged Alec Baldwin now we have a copy of the grand jury indictment right here and it says he has been charged with count one involuntary manslaughter negligent use of a firearm or in the alternative involuntary manslaughter without due caution or circumspection saying you know this was an act committed with the total disregard or indifference for the safety of others it's important to not you
know last year when he was initially charged those charges were dropped in April because of new evidence surrounding the gun but prosecutors say it did not absolve him of criminal culpability and those charges can be refiled and as we see here they did refile those charges H and Brian this new indictment comes months after prosecutors dropped their case against Alec Baldwin over Helen Hut's death let me ask you if his name wasn't Alec Baldwin you think he'd be charged in this manner h I mean th
at's a great question and I would I would say no only to that last part of your or sentence Terry in this manner I think he might have initially faced charges but the back and forth I don't think would have happened but for his Celebrity Status um but I think it might actually help him the end of the day because I would love to represent a client myself being a defense attorney as well where the prosecution flips back and forth as to we have enough evidence we don't have enough evidence now we h
ave enough evidence because if there's doubt within the prosecution's office better believe I can show there's doubt within a jury of 12 people jacn Lee Brian buckmire thank you so much we will follow all the developments of course since the release of this new indictment now to that lifethreatening weather emergency from coast to coast a powerful winter storm on the move and already dumping snow on the northeast Philadelphia is bracing for the most up to 6 in there with one to 3 in farther nort
h in the West a deadly ice storm there Oregon the latest state to declare an emergency the crippling ice Downing power lines some residents even without power for nearly a week at least 41 deaths are now blamed on this extreme weather some Tesla drivers saying it's so cold they've had trouble charging their batteries 140 million Americans now under winter alerts 30 states in the grips of this bone chilling cold our extreme weather team is tracking it all let's begin with Samar Theodore in a very
snowy Philadelphia tomor how cold is it there good afternoon it's very cold too cold uh nonetheless we have a snow emergency here in Philadelphia as a result schools were closed today uh city offices closed also the office of homeless Services has issued a code blue meaning they're looking for folks out on the street who are homeless and they want to bring them into the warming centers they don't need an ID to do so and I completely understand it's very cold out here the snow is coming down pre
tty steadily since Daybreak I've been measuring the snow out here at Independence Hall slowly creeping up uh just most recently in the last 5 minutes I've measured about 3 in of snow some spots a little bit higher there so we're on track for that expected two to four generally some spots could see as high as 6 in throughout this region the good news is that it should start to taper off in a few hours but the roads the roads are still really dicey especially secondary roads and sidewalks I'm seei
ng some sepa buses continuing to go by so it looks like uh the Metro system is still up and running but it's very difficult to Traverse Outdoors right now especially while we're in the thick of it like I said the good news is it's tapering off pretty soon but behind it boy do we have an Arctic blast in store all right Samara uh I was mentioning to Terry we're used to seeing you in the studio I can tell this is a totally different experience I can see the yeah that's it and pulling the I icicles
off her sweet eyelashes there Samara you're terrific we appreciate you so much I mean you're bringing it to us right Melissa Griffin she's there showing us in real time while you're tracking it across the entire country that's right here I know Samara is jealous of me for being inside but we got to talk about the weather Coast to Coast with these dangerous winter conditions here's the radar some of that snow really starting to taper off from New York down through DC we've seen Philly Airport jus
t about 3 Ines but four to five just north of the city so really still in that 3 to six range there but this storm is going to move out quickly and then all the snow Left Behind is going to turn to with that Arctic blast making its way in as this storm heads out a new storm making its way into the west of course we've been talking about Oregon Millions without power there yet another active pattern heading to parts of the West Coast from Seattle back through Portland all the way down to LA right
through the weekend but of course that other big weather story is the new Arctic blast Sweeping in with windchill advisories from the Midwest all the way to the Deep South now with freeze warnings that effect there and look at some of these numbers it is back to 10 to 20 degrees below zero there in in the midwest back to the single digits for wind chills in Memphis and you guys there K and Terry it's going to feel like five Sunday morning there in DC but you know I got to leave you with a littl
e bit of good news as we head into the weekend is this red on the map the whole country going to see a warmup as we head into next week so finally this Relentless winter weather coming to an end for Millions across the country we just got to get through the weekend first yay all right we like to see red in this situation I like winter I like a cold snap I like a good snow a good cold snap do I do yeah building snowmen and snow women and it's babies yes it is it iswi y that's right I mean our kid
s love it all right well we do have breaking news to get to a small plane making emergency landing on a highway in Virginia the single engine plane actually departed dullas International Airport just shortly afternoon and seven people were on board that plane emergency crews say no injuries were reported and investigations is underway a remarkable bit of uh aircraft handling there and maybe the snow in that instance helped it because the roads are pretty clear of most traffic good point we'll fo
llow the details as we get [Music] them we've also got breaking news in the race for the White House sources telling us here at ABC news that South Carolina Senator Tim Scott is actually planning to endorse former president Trump tonight and will join him on the campaign Trail in New Hampshire this comes just 4 days from voting in the primary where Nikki Haley is really turning up the heat inching closer and closer to Donald Trump in the polls Florida Governor Ronda sandis remains a distant thir
d in the Hampshire he's already shifting some of his energy into South Carolina ABC's zorin Shaw is on the ground in Manchester and she joins us now uh so Zarin Tim Scott endorsing Trump what's the impact do you think and and does Haley have any response yeah Terry this is this is not exactly the news that Nikki Haley woke up really hoping to hear and I think she's subtly reminding everyone that she is the only woman left in the race although my colleague says it was so subtle he did not even no
tice but she released a statement just a bit ago saying interesting that Trump's lining up with all the Washington insiders when he claimed he wanted to drain the swamp but the fellas are going to do what the fellas are going to do she's trying to say she's trying to make a reference to the old boys club in essence right the old way of doing things when she says she's a generational change and if you look at this image right the screen right here my producer Josh Asher had to remind me of this l
ittle moment in history when you can see Nikki Haley on stage with Tim Scott they had just finished endorsing Marco Rubio and she made a reference then she said you're going to look at what the new conservative movement looks like because it looks like a benan commercial of course this was several years ago and a lot of political experts saying this race in just a little bit that they predict is going to be down to Dan santis and Trump if in fact Micki Haley doesn't do well next week certainly n
ot a peniton ad but look Trump has reportedly been courting Senator Scott the congressman from South Carolina that is Haley you know that used to be her home state the state that she was the governor at it's a huge blow to her all right zorine Shaw there for us in Manchester we'll be talking a lot over the next uh couple of days into the beginning of the week well he has called Donald Trump an idiot reprehensible even said that he never really liked the guy and he made headlines after explaining
the cultural phenomenon that led to the election of Donald Trump in his best-selling Memoir hillbilly elegy but Senator JD Vance has not only uh changed the tune about Trump over the years he he he Praises Trump quite a bit he's uh saying he was a quote ex effective and successful president that brought quote peace and prosperity so now he's campaigning for him up in New Hampshire Republican senator from Ohio JD van joins us now Senator good to have you with us tell about it thanks guys appreci
ate it so you know I want to start with how you say Trump brought peace and pro Prosperity that that those are your words so all right the economy was pretty solid you know but the Insurrection was far from peaceful so how do you reconcile that and what makes you so sure that if Trump were to lose the election again there wouldn't be another Insurrection and he wouldn't call the results rigged well the reason I say that Trump delivered peace and prosperity is that he did I me you call it an Insu
rrection I think that's a gross overstatement of what what happened on January the 6th and I think that people are ready to move Beyond January the 6th and focus on the future that's what I'm trying to do that's what Donald Trump is trying to do and I think that's what the American people deserve we have to remember that between October the 7th in Israel the war in Ukraine chaos in the Red Sea we have an extraordinarily chaotic world when Joe Biden promised peace and a return to normal this is n
ot a return to normal Steve this is a return to disaster Politics on the global stage and I think the one guy who actually delivered some semblance of calm was Donald Trump we got to send him back to the White House and hopefully redeliver that for the American people you know all right I I I'll I'll give you one thing about calm if you watch his town hall in Iowa he seemed to stay on point he did appear more calm more measured he didn't spend the whole time talking about retribution and witch h
unts so as a supporter of him now that you're campaigning for him how how do you keep him on point like that that was a different Donald Trump I don't feel like I need to keep Donald Trump on point I think Donald Trump needs to deliver the message that only he can deliver which is I actually had a peaceful and prosperous country for four years and we can do it again it's really not rocket science here I mean if you look at what's going on at the southern border you just need a president who's wi
lling to stop that if you see all of the people dying fitting all over overdoses in this country you need a person who's willing to send in the enforcements to say we're not going to let this crap come into our country we have such an incredible country but it's being destroyed by all of these intersecting crises that are being delivered by President Joe Biden I don't think we need to keep Donald Trump on point I think we need to get Donald Trump out there to tell the story that we can have a pe
aceful and prosperous country once again if we just get better leadership uh and part of that leadership might might be you I guess Senator Donald Trump Jr he's brought up your name as one of the people he'd love to see as his dad's running mate uh and we've heard other Republicans argue that that that would be a good idea so do you want it look I I appreciate Don junr throwing my name out there my attitude is very simple I want to be a good Ally for the president of the United States and actual
ly redelivering him to the White House there's a lot that I can do in the United States Senate for the people of Ohio the people who elected me and also I think for the Trump agenda in 2025 and Beyond uh one of the things that really bothered me and frankly one of the things that changed my mind about Donald Trump is is that he never had allies in the Republican Party who are trying to close down the Border who were trying to fight back against the loss of good manufacturing jobs to China he nee
ds that and I think that's one of the things that I can do and and if I do it and do it well and I plan to I think I'll be a great servant for the people of Ohio over the next 5 years all right so uh let me just follow up on that that's not a no but but I'm not going to press but let's say you were in that you know one of the reasons we're having this discussion is because obviously Mike Pence isn't on the ticket because he wouldn't do what Donald Trump told him to on January 6th he decided that
the vice president under the Constitution did not have the authority to set aside uh votes do you agree with that or would you would would you have agreed with Trump would you have done what Trump asked look Terry I I know that you guys are really preoccupied with talking about January the 6th here but I think it's important to focus on the future which is what Donald Trump is trying to do and what I'm trying to do uh if you guys are so preoccupied with January 6th I'm happy to answer the quest
ion here here's the fundamental issue we have a consal process we are talking about the future well I'm trying to let me let me answer let me answer the question we have a constitutional process for challenging election results in this country that's all that was happening on the the runup to January the 6th the president was making president Trump meeting was making an argument that there were problems and there are ways to deal with those problems constit Ally you guys act like uh Donald Trump
was about to cross the the pomac river with the first Marine Division it's craziness nobody actually buys it and I think most Americans see this as a distraction from the question of how do we deler peace and prosperity over the next few years Senator he he went against all no he went against all legal advice uh that he was given he went he went against all legal advice and also advisors told him not to act on Powers that they pointed out that he just didn't have and he did it anyway well he di
dn't go against all legal advice because I know a number of lawyers who think the president was justified in the run up to January the 6th but again I I just find this so interesting I've answered your question about January the 6th I've answered your question about how to deal in a constitutional manner with disputed election results the Constitution is is big enough to handle these conversations in these questions but you guys are constantly returning to January the 6th because you know you ca
n't talk about the future uh I I would like to ask Joe Biden how do you plan to deliver lower inflation how do you plan to redeliver a world that's at peace those are the questions the American people should focus on again I'm happy to talk about January the 6 all day we talk the future we've got the border to talk about we've got ongoing Wars to talk about Senator uh thank you for that uh January 6 was kind of a big deal but aside from that let's look to the Future Let's look to the problem of
immigration the crisis on the border which is so important uh and which Donald Trump has a specific plan for he wants the largest mass exportations uh of people from this country in history he refers to the Eisenhower quote operation plan 1.3 million people will Deport he wants to build large detention camps with money from the military budget you like those ideas well look if people come into this country illegally you either have to let them stay here or you have to deport them it's it's reall
y common sense and if you're not willing to deport some of the people who come here illegally you're not actually ready and willing to enforce the American southern border uh we have to be honest about the choices that we're confronting as a country I saw a story just a couple of days ago an innocent young girl was raped by an illegal alien who had been let back into this country multiple times do I want to deport those people absolutely I want to deport those people and I think that's the only
rational immigration policy for our country now we we we also have to accept that we could stop the flow of additional people right now we have prob probably 30 million illegal aliens in this country Joe Biden is paroling a million illegal aliens a year into this country the last Democratic Administration Barack Obama paroled 5,000 this is a crisis of Joe Biden's making we should be asking tough questions of President Biden why did you let this happen rather than attacking Donald Trump for actua
lly having a plan to deal with the crisis that he will inherit because I think he's going to win the presidency all right let's talk about Trump's uh strong suit you say is foreign policy we have the Israel Hamas war going on the escalating conflicts throughout the Middle East Putin's war in Ukraine How Will trump get a handle on all of that Senator will Hamas Netanyahu even Putin all listen to Trump and would any of these wars happened do you think if Trump were president no I don't think the w
ars would have happened if Donald Trump was President here here's something I'm I'm going to tell you that I I really have heard in the United States sen over the last year I've even heard it from some of my Democratic colleagues that leaders on the world stage respected Donald Trump they actually recognized that if they did the wrong thing Trump might respond in a way that was commensurate uh with the offense I think that's one of the reasons why Russia didn't invade one of its neighbors during
the Trump Administration it's one of the reasons why we had the Abraham Accords actually bringing Israelis and Arabs together for the first time in a generation uh so yeah I I think president Trump can address all of these crises but it really does require strong leadership and this is really important it requires a desire to engage in diplomacy the attitude of Democrats and I hate to say it far too many Republicans is that we can warmonger our way out of every crisis sometimes you need a perso
n who's willing to do some statesmanship you may not like the way that he does it but Donald Trump is the only person I think who's given diplomacy a real shot in the last generation of Foreign Affairs in this country well it has been said that Trump has said some pretty crazy things in his time if you're dealing with someone like Putin or Hamas or other types that well North Korea uh sometimes they scare each other and uh it will be interesting to Watch What Happens uh as we move forward JD Van
ce appreciate your time thank you Senator thank you guys of course we'll cover the New Hampshire primary throughout the day on Tuesday January 23rd special coverage as the results will be coming in 7: a.m. eastern you can see it all right here on ABC News live and coming up tensions continue to rise in the Middle East the US is launching another round of strikes against the the houthi rebels in Yemen we're going to have the latest from telie Israel our correspondent in the region when we [Music]

chain and all this comes is the US and Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu are in disagreement now after Netanyahu publicly rejected any notion of a potential Palestinian State post-war Gaza for more let's bring in AB News Patrick reville in Israel for more Patrick the US is vowing to keep working for a two-state solution Biden even called Netanyahu today what what is the impact netanyahu's comments are having first on the Israeli public where you are but then really you know on the on th
eir main sponsor in the world whose goal has long been two states living side by side in peace and security hi Terry yeah just a little while ago the White House announced that um President Biden had called prime minister Benjamin Netanyahu for the first time in 27 days this is amid reports that there is growing frustration in the Biden Administration with Netanyahu over how he is trying to lead Israel during this war this comes just a day after Netanyahu delivered very blunt comments directly r
ejecting and ruling out the creation of a Palestinian state after the war and directly contradicting US policy and a push right now to try and get Israel to move towards taking steps towards a Palestinian State um you know the White House National Security spokesperson John Kirby has spoken just a little while ago saying that this call was scheduled and was not in response to those comments he said we shouldn't read it into that but I think clearly netanyahu's comments are causing not only a maj
or problem for the us but increasingly here we're starting to see tensions within netanyahu's own government with people starting to question you know are Israel's long-term goals here achievable is it possible for them to fully defeat Hamas and so I think you know as we see this it's going to become a bigger and bigger question the future of prime minister Netanyahu here so the White House has said the strikes on the houthis and Yemen are having an effect you're reaction yeah just a little whil
e ago um the White House National Security spokesman John Kirby said that yes there have been more strikes again today by the US they said that they launched three more strikes against houthi missile launchers they described these as self-defense saying that there were missiles on those launchers ready to fire at ships and yes he said that um the US strikes are making good progress in degrading the houthi capability but he said that they still retain some offensive capability and I think that's

responding and a winter weather emergency heavy snow crippling ice dangerously low wind chills millions of Americans from coast to coast in the grips of an Arctic blast our extreme weather team is timing it all out for also breaking this hour emergency landing a small plane touching down on a highway in Virginia we've got new information and we'll tell you what we're learning about those passengers on board and on the attack Republican presidential candidates lashing out at each other with just
days until the New Hampshire primary how voters are feeling there and the new endorsement for Donald Trump hello everyone I'm Kira Phillips and I'm Terry Moran but we begin with that breaking news out of New Mexico a grand jury has now indicted Alec Baldwin on an involuntary manslaughter charge in the deadly shooting of cinematographer helina Hutchins on the New Mexico set of the movie rust prosecutors had initially dropped their case against Baldwin last year now Baldwin's attorneys say we loo
k forward to our day in court Court let's bring in our Jaclyn Lee also our legal contributor Brian buckmire jacqulyn New Mexico grand jury heard evidence presented by the special prosecutors talk to us about what is exactly in this new indictment yes that's right Kira and Terry you know it's also worth noting it's one year to the day that he was initially charged Alec Baldwin now we have a copy of the grand jury indictment right here and it says he has been charged with count one involuntary man
slaughter negligent use of a firearm or in the alternative involuntary manslaughter without due caution or circumspection saying you know this was an act committed with a total disregard or indifference for the safety of others it's important to note you know last year when he was initially charged those charges were dropped in April because of new evidence surrounding the gun but prosecutors say it did not absolve him of criminal culpability and those charges can be refiled and as we see here t
hey did refile those charges uh and Brian this new indictment comes months after prosecutors dropped their case against Alec Baldwin over Helena hutson's death let me ask you if his name wasn't Alec Baldwin do you think he'd be charged in this manner I mean that's a great question and I would I would say no only to that last part of your or your sentence Terry in this manner I think he might have initially faced charges but the back and forth I don't think would have happened but for his Celebri
ty Status um but I think it might actually help him the end of the day because I would love to represent a client myself being a defense attorney as well where the prosecution flips back and forth as to we have enough evidence we don't have enough evidence now we have enough evidence because if there's doubt within the prosecution's office better believe I can show there's doubt within a jury of 12 people jacn Lee Brian buckmire thank you so much we will follow all the developments of course sin
ce the release of this new indictment now to that life-threatening weather emergency from coast to coast a powerful winter storm on the move and already dumping snow on the northeast Philadelphia is bracing for the most up to 6 Ines there with one to 3 Ines farther north in the west a deadly ice storm there Oregon the latest state to declare an emergency the crippling ice Downing power lines some residents even without power for nearly a week at least 41 deaths are now blamed on this extreme wea
ther some Tesla drivers saying it's so cold they've had trouble charging their batteries 140 million Americans now under winter alerts 30 states in the grips of this bone chilling cold our extreme weather team is tracking it all let's begin with Samara Theodore in a very snowy Philadelphia Samar how cold is it there good afternoon it's very cold too cold uh nonetheless we have a snow emergency here in Philadelphia as a result schools were closed today uh city offices closed also the office of ho
meless Services has issued a code blue meaning they're looking for folks out on the street who are home homeless and they want to bring them into the warming centers they don't need an ID to do so and I completely understand it's very cold out here the snow is coming down pretty steadily since Daybreak I've been measuring the snow out here at Independence Hall slowly creeping up uh just most recently in the last 5 minutes I've measured about 3 Ines of snow some spots a little bit higher there so
we're on track for that expected two to four generally some spots could see as high as 6 Ines throughout this region the good news is that it should start to taper off in a few hours but the roads the roads are still really dicey especially secondary roads and sidewalks I'm seeing some sepa buses continuing to go by so it looks like uh the Metro system is still up and running but it's very difficult to Traverse Outdoors right now especially while we're in the thick of it like I said the good ne
ws is it's tapering off pretty soon but behind it boy do we have an Arctic Glass in store all right Samara uh I was mentioning to Terry we're used to seeing you in the studio I can tell this is a totally different experience I can see the yeah that's it pulling the I icicles off her sweet eyelashes there Samara you're terrific we appreciate you so much I mean you're bringing it to us right Melissa Griffin she's there showing us in real time while you're tracking it across the entire country that
's right K I know samara's jealous of me for being inside but we got to talk about the weather Coast to Coast with these dangerous winter conditions here's the radar some of that snow really starting to taper off from New York down through DC we've seen Philly Airport just about 3 in but four to five just north of the city so really still in that 3 to six range there but this storm is going to move out quickly and then all the snow Left Behind is going to turn to ice with that Arctic blast makin
g its way in as this storm heads out a new storm making its way into the west of course we've been talking about Oregon Millions without power there yet another active pattern heading to parts of the West Coast from Seattle back through Portland all the way down to LA right through the weekend but of course that other big weather story is the new Arctic blast Sweeping in with windchill advisories from the Midwest all the way to the Deep South now with freeze warnings and effect there and look at
some of these numbers it is back to 10 to 20 degrees below zero there in the midwest back to the single digits for wind chills in Memphis and you guys there K and Terry it's going to feel like five Sunday morning there in DC but you know I got to leave you with a little bit of good news as we head into the weekend this this red on the map the whole country going to see a warm-up as we head into next week so finally this relentless winter weather coming to an end for Millions across the country
we just got to get through the weekend first yay all right we like to see red in this situation I like winter I I like a cold snap I like a good snow a good cold snap I do yeah building snowmen and snow women and snow babies yes it is it is yep that's right I mean our kids love it all right well we do have breaking news to get to a small plane making emergency landing on a highway in Virginia the single engine plane actually departed dullas International Airport just shortly afternoon and seven
people were on board that plane emergency crews say no injuries were reported and investigation is under way remarkable bit of uh aircraft handling there and maybe the snow in that instance helped it because the roads are pretty clear of most traffic good point we'll follow the details as we get [Music] them we've also got breaking news in the race for the White House sources telling us here at ABC news that South Carolina Senator Tim Scott is actually planning to endorse former president Trump
tonight and will join him on the campaign Trail in New Hampshire this comes just four days from voting in the primary where Nikki Haley is really turning up the heat inching closer and closer to Donald Trump in the polls Florida Governor Ronda sandis remains a distant third in the Hampshire he's already shifting some of his energy into South Carolina up ABC's zaren Shaw is on the ground in Manchester and she joins us now so zaren Tim Scott endorsing Trump what's the impact do you think and and d
oes Haley have any response yeah Terry this is this is not exactly the news that Nikki Haley woke up really hoping to hear and I think she's subtly reminding everyone that she is the only woman left in the race although my colleague says it was so subtle he did not even notice but she released a statement just a bit ago saying interesting that Trump's lining up with all the washingt insiders when he claimed he wanted to drain the swamp but the fellas are going to do what the fellas are going to
do she's trying to say she's trying to make a reference to the old boys club in essence right the old way of doing things when she says she's a generational change and if you look at this image right on the screen right here my producer Josh Asher had to remind me of this little moment in history when you can see Nikki Haley on stage with Tim Scott they had just finished endorsing Marco Rubio and she made a reference then she said you're going to look at what the new conservative movement looks
like because it looks like a beniton commercial of course this was several years ago and a lot of political experts saying this race in just a little bit that they predict is going to be down to DeSantis and Trump if in fact Nikki Haley doesn't do well next week certainly not a beniton ad but look Trump has reportedly been courting Senator Scott the congressman from South Carolina that is Haley you know that used to be her home state the state that she was the governor at it's a huge blow to her
all right zorine Shaw there for us in Manchester will be talking a lot over the next uh couple of days into the beginning of the week well he has called Donald Trump an idiot reprehensible even said that he never really liked the guy and he made headlines after explaining the cultural phenomenon that led to the election of Donald Trump in his best-selling Memoir hillbilly elegy but Senator JD Vance has not only uh changed the tune about Trump over the years he he he Praises Trump quite a bit he
's saying he was a quote effective and successful president that brought quote peace and prosperity so now he's campaigning for him up in New Hampshire Republican senator from Ohio JD Vans joins us now Senator good to have you with us about it thanks guys appreciate it so you know I want to start with how you say Trump brought peace and pro Prosperity that that those are your words so all right the economy was pretty solid you know but the Insurrection was far from peaceful so how do you Recon S
ile that and what makes you so sure that if Trump were to lose the election again there wouldn't be another Insurrection and he wouldn't call the results rigged well the reason I say that Trump delivered peace and prosperity is that he did I mean you call it an Insurrection I think that's a gross overstatement of what what happened on January the 6th and I think that people are ready to move Beyond January the 6th and focus on the future that's what I'm trying to do that's what Donald Trump is t
rying to do and I think that's what the American people deserve we have to remember that between October the 7th in Israel the war in Ukraine chaos in the Red Sea we have an extraordinarily chaotic world when Joe Biden promised peace and a return to normaly this is not a return to normaly this is a return to disaster Politics on the global stage and I think the one guy who actually delivered some semblance of calm was Donald Trump we got to send him back to the White House and hopefully redelive
r that for the American people you know all right I I I'll I'll give you one thing about calm if you watch his town hall in Iowa he seemed to stay on point he did appear more calm more measured he didn't spend the whole time talking about retribution and witch hunts so as a supporter of him now that you're campaigning for him how how do you keep him on point like that that was a different Donald Trump I don't feel like I need to keep Donald Trump on point I think Donald Trump needs to deliver th
e message that only he can deliver which is I actually had a peaceful and prosperous country for four years and we can do it again it's really not rocket science here I mean if you look at what's going on at the southern border you just need a president who's willing to stop that if you see all of the people dying of fit and all overdoses in this country you need a person who's willing to send in the enforcements to say we're not going to let this crap come into our country we have such an incre
dible country but it's being destroyed by all of these intersecting crises that are being delivered by President Joe Biden I don't think we need to keep Donald Trump on point I think we need to get Donald Trump out there to the story that we can have a peaceful and prosperous country once again if we just get better leadership uh and part of that leadership might might be you I guess Senator Donald Trump Jr he's brought up your name as one of the people he'd love to see as his dad's running mate
uh and we've heard other Republicans argue that that that would be a good idea so do you want it look I I appreciate Don Jr throwing my name out there my attitude is very simple I want to be a good Ally for the president of United States and actually redelivering him to the White House there's a lot that I can do in the United States Senate for the people of Ohio the people who elected me and also I think for the Trump agenda in 2025 and Beyond uh one of the things that really bothered me and f
rankly one of the things that changed my mind about Donald Trump is is that he never had allies in the Republican Party who were trying to close down the Border who were trying to fight back against the loss of good manufacturing jobs to China he needs that and I think that's one of the things that I can do and and if I do it and it well and I plan to I think I'll be a great servant for the people of Ohio over the next 5 years all right so uh let me just follow up on that that's not a no but but
I'm not going to press you on it but let's say you were in that position you know one of the reasons we're having this discussions because obviously Mike Pence isn't on the ticket because he wouldn't do what Donald Trump told him to on January 6th he decided that the vice president under the Constitution did not have the authority to set aside uh votes do you agree with that or would you would would you have agreed with Trump would you have done with Trump asked look Terry I know that you guys
are really preoccupied with talking about January the 6th here but I think it's important to focus on the future which is what Donald Trump is trying to do and what I'm trying to do uh if you guys are so preoccupied with January 6 I'm happy to answer the question here here's the fundamental issue we have a constitutional process we are talking about the future well I'm trying to let me let me answer let me answer the question we have a constitutional process for challenging election results and
this country that's all that was happening on the the runup to January the 6th the president was making president Trump meeting was making an argument that there were problems and there are ways to deal with those problems constitutionally you guys act like uh Donald Trump was about to cross the the pomac river with the first Marine Division it's craziness nobody actually buys it and I think most Americans see this as a distraction from the question of how do we Del peace and prosperity over the
next few years he he went against no he went against all legal advice uh that he was given he went he went against all legal advice and also advisers told him not to act on Powers that they pointed out that he just didn't have and he did it anyway well he didn't go against all legal advice because I know a number of lawyers who think the president was justified in the run up to January the 6th but again I I just find this so interesting I've answered your question about January the 6th I've ans
wered your question about how to deal in a constitutional manner with disputed election results the Constitution is is big enough to handle these conversations and these questions but you guys are constantly returning to January the 6th because you know you can't talk about the future uh I I would like to ask Joe Biden how do you plan to deliver lower inflation how do you plan to redeliver a world that's at peace those are the questions the American people should FOC on again I'm happy to talk a
bout January the 6th all day Amic ongoing Wars to talk about Senator uh thank you for that uh January 6 was kind of a big deal but aside from that let's look to the Future Let's look to the problem of immigration the crisis on the border which is so important uh and which Donald Trump has specific plan for he wants the largest mass exportations uh of people from this country in history he refers to the Eisenhower quote operation plan 1.3 million people who deported he wants to build large detent
ion camps with money from the military budget you like those ideas well look if people come into this country illegally you either have to let them stay here or you have to deport them it's it's really common sense and if you're not willing to deport some of the people who come here illegally you're not actually ready and willing to enforce the American southern border uh we have to be honest about the choices that we're confronting as a country I saw a story just a couple of days ago an innocen
t young girl was raped by an illegal alien who had been let back into this country multiple times do I want to to deport those people absolutely I want to deport those people and I think that's the only rational immigration policy for our country now we we we also have to accept that we could stop the flow of additional people right now we have probably 30 million illegal aliens in this country Joe Biden is paroling a million illegal aliens a year into this country the last Democratic Administra
tion Barack Obama paroled 5,000 this is a crisis of Joe Biden's making we should be asking tough questions of President Biden why did you let this happen rather than attacking Donald Trump for actually having a plan to deal with the crisis that he will inherit because I think he's going to win the presidency all right let's talk about Trump's uh strong suit you say is foreign policy we have the Israel Hamas war going on the escalating conflicts throughout the Middle East Putin's war in Ukraine H
ow Will trump get a handle on all of that Senator will Hamas Netanyahu even Putin all listen to Trump and would any of these wars happen do you think if Trump were president no I don't think the wars would have happened if Donald Trump was President here here's something I'm I'm going to tell you that I I really have heard in the United States over the last year I've even heard it from some of my Democratic colleagues that leaders on the world stage respected Donald Trump they actually recognize
d that if they did the wrong thing Trump might respond in a way that was commensurate uh with the offense I think that's one of the reasons why Russia didn't invade one of its neighbors during the Trump Administration it's one of the reasons why we had the Abraham Accords actually bringing Israelis and Arabs together for the first time in a generation uh so yeah I I think president Trump can address all of these crises but it really does require strong leadership and this is really important it
requires a desire to engage in diplomacy the attitude of Democrats and I hate to say it far too many Republicans is that we can warmonger our way out of every crisis sometimes you need a person who's willing to do some statesmanship you may not like the way that he does it but Donald Trump is the only person I think who's given diplomacy a real shot in the last generation of foreign affairs in this country well it has been said that Trump has said some pretty crazy things in his time if you're d
ealing with someone like Putin or Hamas or other types that know North Korea uh sometimes they scare each other and uh it will be interesting to Watch What Happens uh as we move forward JD Vance appreciate your time thank you Senator thank you guys of course we'll cover the New Hampshire primary throughout the day on Tuesday January 23rd special coverage as results will be coming in 7: a.m. eastern you can see it all right here on ABC News live and coming up tensions continue to rise in the Midd

launching another round of strikes against the houthis in in Yemen and the Iranian back Rebel group has continued to attack ships now in the Red Sea which are key as you know to Global supply chain and all this comes as the US and Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu are in disagreement now after Netanyahu publicly rejected any notion of a potential Palestinian State postwar Gaza for more let's bring in ABC News Patrick revil in Israel for more Patrick the US's o to keep working for a two-s
tate solution Biden even called Netanyahu today what is the impact netanyahu's comments are having first on the Israeli public where you are but then really you know on the on their main sponsor in the world whose goal has long been two states living side by side in peace and security hi Terry yeah just a little while ago the White House announced that President Biden had called prime minister Benjamin Netanyahu for the first time in 27 days this is a mid reports that there is growing frustratio
n in the Biden Administration with Netanyahu over how he is trying to lead Israel during this war this comes just a day after Netanyahu delivered very blunt comments directly rejecting and ruling out the creation of a Palestinian state after the war and directly contradicting US policy and a push right now to try and get Israel to move towards taking steps towards a Palestinian State um you know the White House National Security spokesperson John Kirby has spoken just a little while ago saying t
hat this call was scheduled and was not in response to those comments he said we shouldn't read into that but I think clearly uh netanyahu's comments are causing not only a major problem for the us but increasingly here we're starting to see tensions within netanyahu's own government with people starting to question you know are Israel's long-term goals here achievable is it possible for them to fully defeat Hamas and so I think you know as we see this it's going to become a bigger and bigger qu
estion the future of prime minister Netanyahu here h so the White House has said the strikes on the houthis and Yemen are having an effect your reaction yeah just a little while ago um the White House National Security spokesman John Kirby said that yes there have be more strikes again today by the US they said that they launched three more strikes against houthi missile launchers they described these as self-defense saying that there were missiles on those launchers ready to fire its ships and
yes he said that um the US strikes are making good progress in degr aing the houthi capability but he said that they still retain some offensive capability and I think that's obvious you know we're seeing them continue to try and make these strikes and most experts say that's not surprising they think that it will be very difficult to fully degrade the houthi missile capability and that these strikes in the short term we're almost certainly going to continue guys Patrick revil there in Israel fo

what more do you know about what happened and also the passengers on board well Cara just based on some of the people we've spoken to we can definitely tell that this was a frantic situation as it was all unfolding uh right behind me you can see that single engine Cessna the crews right now working to actually tow it out of the the road trying to get some semblance of normaly back to this area that certainly some people were shocked to see now what we're learning so far is that 27-year-old ahed
awas was the pilot of this plane that actually had to make that emergency landing uh awas along with a co-pilot and five other passengers were on this plane Virginia State Police tell us that no one was injured thankfully in this emergency landing but although no one was injured there were definitely several people who were startled who were startled rather uh we spoke to one individual who saw this plane actually make that emergency landing a spoke to us and said that they couldn't believe wha
t they saw take a listen I look up and there's a plane 20 ft above me um and lands 30 ft in front of me um and literally you know first thought is this is insane it landed went underneath the traffic light um got squirly over here and hit the guard rail um looks like it only damaged the propeller now the FAA and the NTSB are currently on scene investigating this emergency landing uh just before they were actually checking out the middle part of the plane as well as the front part of the plane wh

the country so I had to and she yeah and she was saying it was cold out west and we were sitting over here freezing and you know Eva had on battery Opera gloves you know I was in Iowa early this week just to explain it wasn't the New York cold that was my problem I was worried about you but 48 in La is cold it is my husband breaks out the parka when it drops below 70 so no I'm kiding I'm totally kind of not really kidding let's talk about something that I know you're not kidding about the CDC ha
s some new recommendations that they just put out for blood testing for these forever chemicals break this down for us so these are substances that are literally everywhere in our environment the soil fabric Cosmetics food water you name it the trend has been of these levels in our blood because they linger when we ingest them for a long time hence the name forever chemicals the rates of these levels in our blood are dropping dramatically over the past two uh decades but the CDC now suggesting t
hat healthare providers start testing people uh so take a look at some of the background on this if you if you look at the uh Deep dive if you will uh these forever chemicals they linger in our body they are found in our blood and various organs they have been associated with some potential adverse health effects like higher cholesterol low birth weight preeclampsia or high blood pressure during pregnancy and some types of cancer then you have to ask well what are the benefits of starting to tes
t people may and I want to emphasize May guide exposure reduction and a relief from knowing what your level is but again there's a saying you guys in medicine you shouldn't do a test unless you know what you're going to do with the results of that test right now this is about a $500 test that insurance probably is not going to cover I don't think it's ready for prime time but we're going to stay on it all right you're on it SOC thank you very much appreciate it Andrew dimber is in the house with

ty Buzz Deals and Steals and the coolest lifestyle tips from GMA I love that so much streaming weekends on ABC News live welcome back to gma3 South Carolina Congressman Jim klyburn was crucial to President Biden's Victory and the 2020 Democratic primary now the key Biden surrogate is speaking bluntly about the 2024 race here to discuss the South Carolina Congressman Jim kver from my home state so good to see you Congress thank you you've said that President Biden isn't breaking through the Maga
wall what do you mean by that I meant that a lot of what we were doing not getting reported and for some reason uh we couldn't seem to break through that was then this is now and one of the things has to do with the promo you just made this morning the news that came out additional 5 billion in student loan loan debt relief is now being reported that had not been reported before and there was 132 billion that he had done was not getting reported for some reason we were not breaking through that
wall why I don't know we seem to be doing so now I've seen in the last week three different reports on the amount of relief students gotten and so as I traveled around the country I had young people saying to me Joe Biden has not kept his promise on relieving debt for students and but he was keeping his promise it was not getting reported $137 billion that is a lot of money for around 3.8 million people so what are some of the other accomplishments that the president has made that you believe ar
e being overlooked and what do you say to people will say he hasn't done it enough uh you know what has he done for the country I think that the biggest one that's being under reported is the pack act what the president did with the pack act not just the relief for those who sered uh in Afghanistan and Iraq and got cancer and other maladies because of the burn pits but Joe Biden went back and picked up those people who served in Vietnam and were not getting treated fairly look at the biggest inf
rastructure bills since Dwight Eisen house in the State Highway uh I think uh you hear all the announcements made at the local levels but I don't think the national reporting of that has been uh up to what it should be let's look at some numbers according to our recent ABC News ipsos poll President Biden's approval rating has dropped to a new low 33% are you concerned that his numbers are trending in the wrong direction well I don't think that's a trend I think that's an outlier uh I have seen p
olls recently that said not only is he being approved but his numbers show that he's leading Trump I've seen two polls saying that but I've seen other polls saying differently this snapshots are taken at certain times and when you are uh polling young people and young people are not being told what's been done uh then that's a problem so I I feel real good about where the campaign is I think we're beginning to break through simply because we having complete reporting rather than the incomplete r
eporting that was being done before How concerned are you when it comes to the president's ability to reach black voters uh the president has an approval rating of 65% amongst black Americans age 50 and up but that drops down to 32% amongst black Americans under the age of 50 are you concerned I'm concerned with the reporting of this yes when I see those numbers you know my goodness if there's any truth to the numbers which I don't believe them because I talk to black people all the time uh I ha
ve three black daughters they tell me differently uh my grandchildren tell me differently so I don't know where those numbers are coming from but when you ask a question and someone is basing their opinion on incomplete information or misinformation and the other side seem to be pretty good at misinformation we know what happened in the last election they didn't stop when the election was over it's still going on now so there's a lot of misinformation going on out here there are a lot of things
being said that's just not true and I think that we are going to break through that uh when it goes oneon-one we'll see what happens after the South Carolina primary you we've been out on the campaign TR I've gotten talked to a lot of voters recently and some of them have raised the concern that they think Joe Biden is too old to be running for president again what do you say to them I said that with age comes wisdom you know I grew up in aich and one of the things I learned from my daddy's serm
ons is that we who are older or call for our experiences those who are younger are call for their strength there is a meaningful contribution uh combination of both that will contribute to the future of this country so Joe Biden brings a lot of wisdom to this office and I will say to anybody what do you rather have style or substance I will take substance over style any time well all be watching our South Carolina Congressman Jim Clyburn thank you for joining us and again thanks for coming on we

oy wherever the story is we'll take you there you're streaming ABC News live back now from Foster Care to president of Sacramento State the college he once attended Luke wood is using his story and platform to advocate for others just like him his goal to increase the enrollment and graduation rate for former foster kids Nationwide it is good to see you all and it's good to be back home in Sacramento and at Sacramento State I am very proud to be serving as the president of this institution becom
ing president was something that I had planned on happening not for the sake of the title but for the sake of the impact that we could have on the community one of the Bold goals that we have is to be the institution that has the highest enrollment and the highest graduation rate for former Foster I was born while my mother was in prison both myself and my identical twin brother so we immediately went into the Foster system and then went into a foster home we were eventually adopted in that same
home I experienced what a lot of our first generation students of color former Foster youth experience in college which is I didn't have a system of support it was basically just a tough experience the guardian Scholars Program at sax state provides a lot of services and resources to students it provides students with advising mentorship emergency crisis Services it also has a case management approach where it follows each student based upon their unique experiences and their unique needs in th
e institution I feel the guardian Scholars Program is what is that key piece that makes the difference between those statistics of foster youth not graduating versus all of our foster youth succeeding and achieving their dreams being adopted as a child I was four years old and I reentered the foster care system when I turned 16 it was pretty scary to navigate it's often kind of the stigma that Foster youth face is that we have these predisposed Futures that we can't alter which is the farthest t
hing from the truth I'm kind of proof of that I'm hoping to graduate at sax State this semester with highest honors I could not have done it without the guardian Scholars Program I look forward to us establishing a national movement where you'll see select colleges and universities across the country serving as magnets for students who've been part of the Foster system because they know when they go to that institution they come to a place like Sacramento state that they're not just coming to a
school but they're coming home you know it sounds cliche but it's true it's not how you start it's how you finish I love his story Bravo all right coming up are you concerned that you may have a vitamin deficiency if so Dr Jan's got your cover she always has his cover plus she's starring in a new Amazon series with an intriguing premise SAR you blue is here previewing X stay us first thing in the morning there's a lot going on everybody in that home is okay to catch you up with what happened ove
rnight we are here at Fashion's biggest night out what's happening today YouTube has unveiled a new set of policies what people are talking about the new ad campaign fast straightforward with some fun in between a real life Barbie Dream House a name change for the wiener mobile first thing in the morning America this morning America's number one early morning news on ABC News live look up there's got to be something out there we were shocked scared to death oh wow my name is cat Patterson and I
am an alien abductee extraterrestrial intelligence aliens we are getting closer to the gravel road that is supposed to lead us to Area 51 okay are we alone it's about time now to find out the answer aliens are we alone now streaming on Hulu all right here we go you ready let's do it yes it's the show America want and America needs right now this is what would you do let's go how are you you yes so what will you be watching Saturdays on ABC News live what would you do hey I guess I just found out
the what would you do marathon 2 to 6 Eastern every Saturday on ABC News live my favorite show we can change the course of history you will fight against oppression by any means necessary brothers and sisters are you ready we must be a little daring this is our reality [Music] [Music] now you're watching America's number one streaming news ABC News live breaking news exclusives live reporting keep streaming with ABC News live all right Dr Jenna's back we were taking a look at a new study that y
our daily multivitamin may be good for your brain yes and this medical headline is getting a lot of attention so uh this was a study published in the American journal of clinical nutrition it was as we say in science the gold standard in terms of study design randomized dou double blind Placebo control trial looking at just over 500 people followed them for 2 years older adults average age of 69 and they found that the group that took a multivitamin in this case in the study they used Centrum Si
lver but any overthe counter multivitamin performed better in terms of their short-term memory testing so you've heard me say it before Association and observation is very different than cause and effect in science and nutrition but obviously vitamin deficiencies are very common in older people for a variety of reasons so risk benefit what is the risk of taking an over- the- counter multivitamin very low other than cost pretty much and this study really suggesting there may be a benefit so how d
o you get the most of your multivitamin when do you take it in the morning or at night well you know what I there's no confirmed data on that in terms of recommendations and you have a lot of doctors and even nutritionists say that you know all multivitamin produces is expensive urine because a lot of it is just excreted um because in order to fit so much in that multivitamin you know it's a little of this and a little of that but food supply is not what it is older people have different absorpt
ions so you know again if talk to your healthcare provider a multivitamin is probably not going to do any harm and is it still best to try to get you know everything that you need your Nutri food food yes of course but that's easier said than done all right we're back in a moment I took that vitamin either way I [Music] mean why do so many people start their day here from ABC News this is start here to be in the know and get a different take on the day's top stories a lot of news today so let's

concert for SiriusXM at Irving fazza the show in advance of their new album release saviors this brings back so many memories from my childhood I was about to say that's a favorite there GRE wow all right Dr Jan's back and she's taking a look at some of the questions that you guys are asking and here's one how do I know what vitamin deficiencies are linked to fatigue and what can I do about it that question is from Diana okay very comp at question because a lot of things cause fatigue and we can
't with relative certainty pinpoint one vitamin deficiency with that symptom of fatigue however the short answer is pretty much any or all true vitamin deficiencies can contribute to causing someone to feel fatigued the problem is we can't reliably test for every single vitamin and a test in one point in time might not give you an accurate picture of what your true body stores are uh typically with vitamins when I got my degree in nutrition I learned this concept I thought it was really helpful
think of it like a conveyor belt when all those stations are filled adding more there's nowhere for it to go so don't assume that just taking more of a vitamin will necessarily help because once those docks are loaded you really can't oversaturate yourself most of the time the big vitamins B complex and D you can test for them by a simple blood test if they're low yes you can treat them with supplementation or food sources and you may feel less fatigued but there are a lot of other reasons that
cause fatigue low thyroid depression anemia I would look there first your prescription for wellness okay has to do with some tips to ease nighttime leg cramps if you've had them which I have you know how painful and annoying they can be so number one hydration drink about six to eight glasses of water every day I do not do that that's probably why I get those cramps uh propping your feet up on a pillow at night or even putting a a soft pillow under your knees can help stretching your leg muscles
and your feet muscles with a tennis ball or something like that can help and then keep that bedding loose around your feet a lot of people just they tuck those sheets in in a military way have to keep your feet warm yes I love the time who sleeps with their feet out of the covers no but just Lo just loose just loose okay bye that's another seg I'll work on that yes it is and folks we we would love to hear from you so us up on Instagram with all of your medical questions for Dr Jan at ABC gma3 w

my dreams I had to step Beyond it and get honest I think that's first step being hon honest about where we're limited and why we haven't walked into everything that God has said you've helped so many women why do you think it's so difficult for us as women to live authentically I was afraid that who I was authentically wouldn't be accepted that she wasn't enough um as I started to relax into the fact that God made me on perfect on purpose specifically how he desired me to be I started to kind of
let the the the bugs kind of get away and to step into the fullness of that and not be afraid to own that version that he had made specifically and uniquely for a purpose but how do you find that confidence as I've learned that I Was Made In His Image and his likeness I understood that he was perfect that he was infinite strategic I settled into that I'm made like him and I could kind of dominate in that space and so I understood that there was something so beautiful inside of me reflecting the
father that I didn't have to be afraid to be hurt we used to say in Sunday school God Don't Make No Junk he does it he does all things welle was up all night just listening to some of your videos on YouTube and I was like I need to turn this off so I can go to work give us some words of encouragement as we go into the weekend and next week one of the biggest things that was hard for me to believe is that God did not make a mistake in my design I felt as if he is Master Creator perfect in all th
ings that he does that he made me on purfect on purpose specifically for a purpose and if that be true I had to stop being so critical of her but to decide to trust her to love her and most importantly to authentically just be her give you yourself Grace give us give Grace be heard all right thank you very much we appreciate it Dr Jackie yes good to see you and you can pick up a copy of permission to live free everywhere that books are sold and coming up when we come back star you blue one of th

sending temperatures plummeting from Coast to Coast the very latest as tens of millions of Americans remain under winter weather alerts Donald Trump and Nikki Haley sharpening their attacks on each other ahead of next week's Primary in New Hampshire how a high a new high-profile endorsement for Trump could be a setback for haly's campaign and just eight teams left on the road to the Super Bowl I'll speak with an 89-year-old lifelong Detroit Lions fan after he went viral tending the team's first
playoff Victory and more more than three decades but we do begin with another round of brutal winter weather as a powerful winter storm front puts more than a 100 million Americans under extreme weather alerts storms pounding the Mid-Atlantic and Northeast 30 states are now on alert for snow and ice as the cross country storm moves East in the west a deadly ice storm Oregon is the latest state to declare a state of emergency downed trees and crippling ice Downing power lines some residents have
been without power now for more than a week more than 40 deaths are now blamed on this extreme weather and across the us more than a thousand flights today were canceled at least 5 5,600 were delayed the roads were so bad in Ohio that the Cincinnati Police tweeted don't call them if there's a car crash with no injuries just exchange insurance information Philadelphia declaring a snow emergency seeing up to 6 in in some areas so let's bring in ABC News meteorologist Samar Theodore joining us fro
m a very snowy Philadelphia Samara what are the conditions where you are right now right now it's becoming more and more blustery winds are beginning to pick up Elizabeth it's getting even colder the snow is still coming down so we woke up to a coating of snow this morning and it's been steady ever since I'm Independence Hall right off of Market Street in central Philadelphia and I've been measuring the snow most recently here we saw about 4 and A2 Ines of snow which is on par for the forecast t
hat we anticipated in this region as you mentioned Philadelphia has been under a snow emergency so school was closed today we saw a few kiddos come down and build snowman but the road conditions is something they've been really focusing on main roads have been looking good it's the secondary roads that uh have been really dicey and the sidewalks awfully slick they've been doing diligent work though to try and keep it clear I've also noticed that SEPTA's still been running so their Metro uh syste
m has continued to run buses are moving right now but like I said snow emergency so city offices are close the office of homeless Services also issued a code blue so they're trying to get folks in off the street that means that they're able to come into the warming centers without IDs which is really good news nonetheless the storm system is getting ready to wrap up but what's coming next the brutal arctic cold so many of us on the northeast are going to be feeling like the single digits Elizabe
th given that brutal arctic cold tomorrow what should people be doing right now to stay safe we do know that this weather has turned deadly so give us some advice for those who are dealing with these frigid temperatures and conditions well I would certainly recommend making sure all your devices are charged because we could be looking at power outages strong Gusty winds I like to keep hand warmers on deck at all times having some water around uh lots of snacks lots of blankets all those things j
ust in case the power goes out uh but ultimately like you said we're getting ready for the cold air moving in and avoid the roads if you can just stay off the roads it's not the best we're now dealing with the slushy conditions and uh we have to be careful for any icing that may occur at night as well Samara thank you and stay safe too the frigid temperatures ASR said are sticking around more than a dozen states are facing Sub-Zero temperatures heading into this weekend so ABC News Meteorologist
Melissa Griffin is tracking all of this for us hey Melissa and Elizabeth this storm has dropped about 2 to6 in from DC up through Philly about 1 to two for the New York City area but as you can see this evening the storm is going to be making its way out quickly but it's going to leave behind some brutally cold air so all of that snow that fell that is definitely going to be freezing over so very slick roads tonight through the overnight right into Saturday morning with the cold and blustery ai
r filtering in now as this storm moves out a brand new storm moves into the West Coast Oregon a place where Millions remain without power as they've gotten slammed with ice storms earlier this week more active weather right through the weekend from Seattle back through Portland all the way down to San Francisco and LA so a very active pattern continues in the west while the rest of the country deals with brutally cold wind chills yet again look at these wind chill advisory stretching from the pl
ains across the Midwest you even have hard freeze warnings here in the Deep South that includes New Orleans back through mobile Jacksonville you're under that windchill advisory and we're going to see these numbers dip again Below Zero from Chicago to Kansas City it feels like negative 18 Saturday morning in Kansas City it feels like the single digits as far south as memph Memphis Dallas you're in this as well and look at DC feeling like 5° on Sunday morning so just a brutally cold weekend ahead
after all the snow they just got but I have to leave you with some good news because after the weekend as we head into next week most of the country going to see these above normal temperatures especially there in the Midwest and Northeast so finally this Relentless winter weather coming to an end for Millions right as we head into next week Elizabeth relief amid those frigid is heing to see Melissa thanks so much now to some breaking news dramatic images out of Virginia video shows a small pri

hway that's right Elizabeth we're learning new information right now about this shocking and startling scene right here on Lowden County Virginia as a matter of fact right now you can see crews are starting to work to get this plane out of here you see the Heavy Duty Towing truck they've attached a pulley to the front wheel of that plane and they're currently working to pull that single engine Cessna off of this highway just as traffic is beginning to pull up now here's what we're learning right
now from the NTSB they're investigating reports of loss of engine power on takeoff obviously this is still ongoing but those are the preliminary reports that we're hearing from those officials at the moment now what we do know is that this plane right now was piloted by 27-year-old Amed awas AAS along with a co-pilot and five other passengers seven total were on this plane when it was making that emergency landing thankfully none of them was hurt during this entire process now we also managed t
o speak to some eyewitnesses Jesse Lael he told us that he was he saw that plane fly 20 ft above his car before making that emergency landing just 30 ft in front of his car take a listen I look up and there's a plane 20 ft above me um and lands 30 ft in front of me um and literally you know first thought is this is insane it landed went underneath the traffic light um got squirly over here and hit the guard rail um looks like it only damaged the propeller now Crews right now are on scene they're
still working to clear at this highway we're being told the FAA and the NTSB will continue investigating this emergency landing Elizabeth just a striking image of that plane behind you Ike thanks so much a grand jury has indicted Alec Baldwin on an involuntary manslaughter charge in the deadly shooting of cinematographer Helena Hutchins in the New Mexico set of the movie rust prosecutors had initially dropped their case against Baldwin last year ABC News Jaclyn Lee has been following this story
from us from our Los Angeles Bureau and Jacqueline this New Mexico grand jury heard evidence presented by special prosecutors so what is in this new indictment y That's Right Elizabeth we do have a copy of the indictment right here so as you can see you know he was charged with involuntary manslaughter uh negligent use of a firearm or in the alternative it says involuntary manslaughter without due caution or circumspection and they say that Baldwin committed this act with total disregard or ind
ifference for the safety of others and of course it is worth noting this is one year to the day that prosecutors initially brought charges against him those charges were then dropped in April due to New Evidence surrounding the gun prosecutors were very clear they said this does not absolve him of criminal culpability those charges can be refiled and as we've seen here today they indeed were what kind of response jacine are we getting from Baldwin's attorneys here you know Baldwin's attorneys we
re very simple they just said we look forward to our day in court they have maintained his innocence through this entire ordeal Elizabeth Jaclyn Lee thanks so much for staying on this for us we turn now to the Middle East and the war between Israel and Hamas the White House confirming that President Joe Biden and Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu spoke today this is the first known call between the two leaders in nearly a month it's a day after Netanyahu declared that he opposes the crea
tion of a Palestinian state in any post-war scenario the Israeli leader rejecting calls from the US to open a pathway for Palestinian statehood and standing firm that Israel will continue its offensive in Gaza until it declares quote decisive victory over Hamas it has been more than 100 days since hamas's deadly attack on Israel at least 136 hostages are still in Hamas captivity we are joined Now by Chief National correspondent Matt Gutman from Tel Aviv Matt Elizabeth the pressure on the Israeli
government is increasing with the death toll in Gaza the hunger there and the criticism of the Israeli government increasing worldwide today for the first time in a month President Biden with conversation with prime minister Netanyahu one of the things they talked about is the need to reduce civilian casualties in Gaza and internally Netanyahu is under increasing pressure massive pressure to bring all of the 130 plus hostages home early this morning there was a major protest on one of the bigge
st highways just outside of Tel Aviv uh protesters demonstrators blocking it demanding that more be done to bring those hostages home and we spoke to a 13-year-old boy yagil Yakov who was held captive in Gaza by the Islamic Jihad his brother was also taken we sat there with his mother in their apartment they've been evacuated their kotz of near o was was basically completely destroyed nobody lives there now and he recounted what he went through and specifically how early that Saturday morning on
October 7th regular civilians came into their Community uh just outside Gaza and that's who took them hostage and he describes what it was like those initial moments the last thing I heard him say on the phone when the phone was still on was uh you contact me I'm too young don't take me I mean I just can't imagine hearing all of that happening while you're on the phone hearing your two sons being kidnapped did you know it's uh it's every parents nightmare coming coming true and hearing it live
yeah it's uh you can't describe how it feels what was it like to see your brother again after 52 days crazy did you hug [Laughter] it's incredible to hear that his mother was actually on the phone with the two boys as they were taken now each of them was actually separated they were taken into Gaza uh by different groups um eventually yagil was held by one group that was Loosely affiliated with the Palestinian Islamic Jihad they put out um this I guess Proof of Life video of him about 34 days in
and it was only about 50 days in that he understood that he was going to be part of this hostage release and finally on that last day he was reunited with his stepmother and he describes that hug as the biggest hug of his life and then when he got into the van leading to the Red Cross Rondevu Point that's when he saw his brother or for the first time and he describes this massive cathartic crying bear hug that he gave him and he said that was pretty much the only time we've ever hugged um now h
is mother Raina who we spoke with extensively said that she did the interview because she is trying to bring more awareness to the hostages trying to get them home as quickly as as possible including yag Gil's father um yair who has been held for over 105 days they are severely concerned about his welfare he was wounded that first day they don't know if he's alive they haven't seen a proof of life and they say the time is of the essence to get people like your Gill's father your ear home and all

so join us afternoon for everything you need to know I love [Music] that former president Donald Trump is set to pick up a new high-profile endorsement Just 4 days away from the next Stakes GOP Primary contest I'm Elizabeth schy in Washington in today's big story sources tell ABC news that Tim Scott is expected to formally back Trump at a rally in New Hampshire today as Nikki Haley looks for a big win there next week so what this move from Tim Scott the senator from her own state will mean for h
er campaign and in our Spotlight the Biden Administration forgiving student loan debt for tens of thousands more Borrowers our panel weighs in on that and why the American dream seems so Out Of Reach for so many in a younger [Music] generation but we do begin with our big story sources tell ABC news that South Carolina Republican senator Tim Scott is expected to endorse Donald Trump for president we're told Scott plans to make the announcement at a rally in New Hampshire this evening just 4 days
away from the state's first in the nation Prime AR the news comes after a source confirmed to ABC news that Haley and Trump had reached out to Scott trying to get his endorsement of course Haley and Scott are both from South Carolina which is holding the third GOP Primary next month meantime Haley has been creeping up in the polls in New Hampshire but Trump still holds a strong double digigit lead there Haley earlier today said her campaign will not stop no matter the outcome on Tuesday I won S
outh Carolina twice as Governor I think I know what favorable territory is in South Carolina we are going to South Carolina we're going to be strong in South Carolina the road is never going to stop here in New Hampshire that's always been the plan strong in Iowa stronger in New Hampshire and even stronger in South ABC News Deputy political director Avery Harper joins me now for more Avery great to have you on this Friday night let's talk about this endorsement from Senator Tim Scott how big a d
eal is this for former president Trump well it's certainly a feather in his cap to have another one of his former competitors endorse him this is the third uh former Contender to endorse Scott Doug berham also a v ramaswami have endorsed him uh but look I think this is actually a bigger loss for Nikki Haley than it is a win for former president Trump you have to remember Trump has been leading in polling across the board for the entirety of the primary season uh he has the endorsement of Lindsey
Graham in South Carolina the Governor Henry McMaster three members of Congress Nikki Haley only has one Congressional endorsement in her home state do you see this move Avery as a play for VP for someone like Tim Scott when it comes to Trump he look it's it's possible it's very early to be having a conversation about a VP pick uh former president Trump is not yet the nominee but there's been a lot of names that have been floated Alise stonic the the congresswoman from New York Christy Noam the
South Dakota governor uh even Tucker Carlson has been floated as a possible VP pick for former president Trump but again I think those conversations are pretty premature well and let's talk about what is the most imminent contest here which of course New Hampshire you've been in New Hampshire as you were there Avery did you get the sense that Trump is set for the same type of landslide victory in the primary on Tuesday that we saw earlier this week in Iowa look Trump won by historic margins in I
owa he won by 30 points I I don't think that we can anticipate that former president Trump is going to uh come out with a win like that there when we look at the most recent uh analysis of polling from 538 we see that he's just about 15 points ahead of Nikki Haley uh there Nikki Haley is trying to run up the score utilizing the support of Independents who she's popular with and can participate in that primary and so we'll see what happens right you mentioned Nikki Haley we've seen her really esc
alate her attacks on the former president this week do you think there's a recognition from the Haley campaign that they should have been more critical of the former president sooner in their own campaign no that is not something that we're hearing from the Haley campaign look when you ask Haley about this she says look there were 14 candidates in this race before uh and now that the uh field has narrowed her her uh attacks are getting a little sharper and she's going to try and draw some contra
st between herself and former president Trump because uh that's who she's up against in in New Hampshire that's the only person who she is trailing behind in New Hampshire uh and so we'll see her continue to make those attacks she's really been trying to aump both uh former president Trump and President Biden together yesterday in a televised Town Hall she said do we really want two 80y olds running for president and then there's also an ad that's pretty unavoidable if you turn on the television
in New Hampshire in which he says both men are consumed by chaos and negativity uh and so we'll see if that strategy is effective for her in the state of New Hampshire trying to walk that fine line of criticizing Trump but also not alienating alienating his supporters let's bring this conversation and the big story St to our bigger panel Avery joining us today is ABC News contributor and serus XM host Mike Muse former Republican congressman from New York John catco and former senator from North
Dakota Heidi hi high camp thank you all for being here on this Friday night John I'm gonna pick up on what Avery was just saying what do you make of Nikki Haley intensifying at least her attacks of the former president is this something she should have been doing more aggressively earlier on to try to condense that lead at least well I think the first job was to winow down the field she's done that and now it's she's characterized the races her against Trump and that really just santis doesn't
matter now so U I think maybe you know could she have gone a little bit earlier perhaps but she's certainly ready now and I think Trump's taking notice because they're hitting back and they're hitting back hard and they're making personal nasty attacks that's generally a good sign when I was in office when people Hit me hard I knew I was making Headway in polls and if you look at the polls in New Hampshire Trump has stayed relatively static since the very beginning hovering right around the 50%
Mark and she's the only candidate whose Arc is going up right now so will she be able to catch him uh who knows but is she gonna have a good showing there yes it's gonna be enough to change a tide Lord only knows but a lot of people like Tim Scott are all falling behind Trump and I don't think they all love them but they're it's a politically expedient thing to do so we'll see what happens after New Hampshire well HEI what do you make of that endorsement from Senator Tim Scott you know expected
to throw his support behind Trump tonight in New Hampshire these are your former Republican colleagues in the Senate do you think more are going to follow his lead you know what do you make of the significance of that endorsement uh tonight well I'm not a big believer that endorsements make a big difference um obviously they get some attention from the media in this case I think it's it it's kind of sad of Tim to do this because Tim would not be in the United States Senate if it w for Nikki Hale
y um she appointed him to that job and so you know I'm sure she's smarting a little bit from from that kind of uh uh friendship gone Ary but you know I think at the end of the day she is trying to differentiate herself from the president I think that uh endorsements won't matter I totally agree with John if she has a good showing and by that comes within 10 of the uh sitting or the the person who is really the presumptive uh nominee because he was the president I think that's a really good showi
ng it's going to give her a bounce in South Carolina so I think she's playing a very smart strategic game and she's not going to let an endorsement throw her off her game well and when we talk about this race there is still Florida Governor Ronda santis we know that he's basically abandoned New Hampshire he is focusing on South Carolina Avery what do you make of that decision from Ronda santis this close to the primary in New Hampshire you know I think it's reflective of how his campaign thinks
he is going to fa there come Tuesday on primary night now look he's polling in single digits uh there's lots of folks who say he does not necessarily have a presence there I'll tell you when I turn on the television in New Hampshire I don't see any pro disantis ads it's really all pro Trump and pro haly ads and so I think they're hedging their bets they're heading to South Carolina to try and get a head start there Mike way in here is this a race between Trump and Haley is it even a race between
Trump and Haley at this point or has Trump got this and are voters ready for this rematch of trump and President Biden that we saw four years ago I think we're stand now that it is a race between former president Trump and Governor Nikki Haley uh they are the two that has the momentum as John catco said Nikki's momentum is trending upward in Upper trajectory for me Elizabeth the significance of Senator Tim Scott's endorsement not necessarily isn't so much the impact that he have on it in New Ha
mpshire but the impact he would have on it in South Carolina uh Senator Tim Scott is beloved in South Carolina he's a popular politician in South Carolina uh Governor Nikki Haley is trailing in the behind former president Trump in her own home state so having the support of Senator Tim Scott um endorsing president Trump stomping for him campaigning for him doing convin him in South Carolina it actually hurts Governor Nikki Haley's momentum and so this is why it's important that she has to win Ne
w Hampshire no way she can come in second place New Hampshire than head into South Carolina uh where it will be very tough for her to win in South Carolina with this endorsement momentum on Trump's side and that electorate favors more Iowa than it does New Hampshire and you're right I the electorate won't be enthused uh if they do see Biden uh and Trump uh but both sides will have to work hard to get their voters out Heidi wait on that because there there is a lot of talk about not there's a lot
of concerns about enthusiasm people not showing up because they're not excited about these candidates whoever it is at this point do you think that's the case or are we you know we're pretty far out here still are people just not paying attention yet at this point I think it certainly was the case in Iowa they were predicting almost 200,000 votes they got half of that and so I think whether whether people didn't come out because it was cold guess what about 60% of the people who did come out we
re over the age of 55 and so you know cold didn't stop the older people I think that there is a there's a momentum shift here if she comes very close in uh New Hampshire and I have to disagree a little bit I I think when you look at endorsements maybe it matters when you don't know the other the candidate that's being endorsed to say oh if he likes him I'm probably going to like him too Trump is a known commodity I don't see this endorsement playing a big role anywhere in the country I think it'
s a play for vice president and you know good for Tim if if that pulls off for him but I I I think this race is not over yet but it's pretty close to being over a very public play for VP if that's the case Mike John Heidi and Avery thank you so much much more to come on this in the days ahead coming up in our Spotlight new relief ahead for crippling student loan debt we're going to bring you the latest details of the new plan from the Biden Administration to cancel some of that debt that is afte

would you do let's go how are you H you so what will you be watching Saturdays on ABC News live what would you do hey I guess I just found out the what would you do marathon 2 to 6 Eastern every Saturday on ABC News live my favorite show why do so many people start their day here from ABC News this is start here to be in the know and get a different take on the day's top stories a lot of news today so let's get into it listen now to the Daily News podcast honored with four Edward R ml Awards and
see why the New York Times calls it a news podcast worth listening to start here ABC News make it your daily first listen now that's a part of the story I bet you didn't see coming wherever you get your podcasts start [Music] here in today's Spotlight forgive and forget the Biden Administration announcing today it's cancelling nearly $5 billion in student loan debt about 74,000 people will get some relief under the newly announced plan it's G geared toward helping Public Service workers like nu
rses and firefighters who've been paying off their debt while working for at least 10 years the announcement comes on the same day that new data revealed that new home sales hit their lowest last year in nearly three decades with the American dream unaffordable and Out Of Reach for so many younger Americans let's bring back our panel Mike Muse John CCO Heidi hiid camp and joining us is ABC senior White House correspondent Selena Wang Selena I'll start with you student debt was relief was of cour
se one of President Biden's big campaign promises in 201 20 is this announcement geared toward courting some of those younger voters as we see this campaign ramp up well look Elizabeth the Biden campaign believes that this is going to be a motivating factor in 2024 for voters especially for those young voters so we are going to see student loan relief continue to be a major talking point of the president throughout the campaign Trail and with this announcement the president is conveying that he'
s still making good on his campaign promise even after the Supreme Court struck down his student loan relief plan last year but the Supreme Court decision it has forced his administration to take this more peac Mill approach they've had to take these smaller more targeted measures for instance the $5 billion in cancellation of student loans for more than 70,000 Americans that announcement this morning that actually applies to people who already qualify for student loan relief under the existing
law but they haven't been able to get it because of gaps in the system so that is one tactic that this Administration is taking they're also increasing pel grants to low-income students students in addition to that they're also making student loan repayments lower than ever now the big challenge for the campaign though Elizabeth is how this campaign convinces American people that these policies are leading to positive changes as we still see persistently low approval ratings for the President ri
ght and such a challenge when he' made a bigger promise and that promise was struck down John kako what do you make of President Biden taking these unilateral steps kind of on his own to try to provide this student loan debt relief Alit peac mail as Selena says you we've obviously seen intense opposition from republicans in Congress and at the state level too to some of these actions yeah it's a tough one for me look I I got out of Law School in 1988 and I was $70,000 in debt no one paid off my
loans I paid them all off and my wife and I made tremendous sacrifices for a couple of decades to do so and I but on the same hand I empathize with people now college has gotten out of control with cost but how a president can basically legislate from the executive branch and and do this uh is something that sits with me wrong and the other thing that sits with me wrong is many people chose not to go to college because they couldn't afford it truck drivers and others and they're actually going t
o be paying for these individuals loans to be paid off and that's the problem I have I think the bigger picture is we got to look at the catastrophic costs associated with colleges and try and put pressure on colleges to stop them and if you're encouraging people in the public sector to same public sector and help them out I guess I'm okay with that but I think it's a tough one overall what do you think Heidi I mean is this debt forgiveness from the executive branch kind of the way to give those
younger Americans the chance given you know what John's talking about there are so many headwinds they're facing High Cost of college overall cost you know buying so many of them well there's really two questions right the policy question is this good policy and John just outlined an argument against against it I could give an argument for it but when you look at uh uh politics of this there's so many young people who are so cynical because they were promised something and it wasn't delivered a
nd so um and they also feel like they're they're getting the brunt of a bad economy they don't they don't have an ability to be upwardly mobile or buy buy a home this is an opportunity to say especially to those young people who are pursuing a career in public service look we recognize that there's an existing program we're going to expedite that program we're going to look at lowincome folks and if I were going to do this and I've argued this they should be doing interest rate relief and if you
apply the excess interest that these students have been paying for many many years you could wipe out this student debt so you know there's a lot of arguments about this the political argument is really being responsive to a camp campaign pledge well and Mike what do you make of that the the policy versus the politics is there an obvious choice here and is this the job of the federal government to try to make that American Dream more realistic for especially younger Americans Elizabeth that is
such a great question you asked I'm going to do my best to answer in 30 seconds I know time is is is running short but here's what's at stake we asked these students do everything we ask them to do do great in K through 12 go to college live the American dream you're going to get a job waiting for you a beautiful house with a white picket fence uh and the economy happen and jobs are shrinking and AI is involved right and the future of work has changed and the future of work is now I think Elizab
eth were asking the wrong questions though not here on this panel but as a society I think we need to address the issue of the root of the cause is why is college so expensive and what can the federal government do to work with these institutions to bring down the cost of tuition and how can they lean more on their endowments and donor base of the the Collegiate system in order to drive down the cost of college tuition we're always asking the right questions on these panels right Mike I mean we
could do this for like they just got to listen to what we're talking about we could do this for a lot longer in 30 second we actually and in 30 seconds and on that note I'm going to wrap you because we do still do have our last call coming up it's a pretty good one so we're going to talk about Vogue magazine which is facing backlash over the digital cover that features Usher we're going to tell you why when the panel weighs in coming up next [Music] we can change the course of history you will f

ter Jade Nova posted on X to ask can someone explain to me why Usher's Vogue cover looks like a we's Waldo book and another social media user said on X that Vogue cover is not good Usher looks like an extra and not the cover star let's bring this to our panel Mike John Heidi and Avery okay John are you an usher fan first of all but Usher has made a major comeback with his Las Vegas residency he's releasing this new album he set to perform at the Super Bowl halftime show what's your take on this
oh for God's sakes people lighting up my God he's a great he's a great artist it's all it's a it'sit a cover for gosh sakes the only thing I really care about about sure is that he's at the Super Bowl and I pray to God that he sings a Buffalo Bills theme song which is shout because that means the bills won the Super Bowl that's all I care go washer go bills that's a tall order John Mike I don't know vogue's vogue's a women's magazine but we have seen like Harry Styles on this before that was in
December 2020 why doesn't Usher get his own cover like Harry Styles did well first of all to John Go Lions oh come on man this is not an NFL segment people sorry Elizabeth um um yes one I'm excited that Usher is on the car V magazine he's been in this industry for over 30 years so to convert from a child actor all the way into an adult Superstar headlining the Super Bowl 30 years later is de feat onto itself the question does come into play when you compare that story to Harry Styles's cover um
and then another question could be could they had brought him more into the Forefront of it but at the end of the day I did talk with this team and they are very excited and very proud of this cover look at you breaking some news there on our last call you talked with this team they say anything else you got to give us anything else there Mike if you want I can car's rapping us but they did say they are very proud of this cover story they're very pleased with it um they're excited for the way th
