today, friday, june 28th, 2024, breaking news, narrowing the scope, the supreme court makes it harder to charge january 6th defendants with obstruction. what the decision means for the former president, as the court gets ready to rule on presidential immunity. about last night. if you were one of the tens of millions of americans who tuned in to the presidential debate you probably have some thoughts. the growing fallout for president biden and how the campaign is responding. failure to act, the former police chief for uvalde schools arrested in connection with a 2022 mass shooting, the charges he's facing and how victims' families are reacting. get a whiff of this, some thing is rotten in the state of denmark, could danish farm es get taxed over their gassy livestock? we'll clear the air. >> yes, we are talking about cow farts later this hour. >> we are, stay tuned for that. >> stay tuned.

series news this hour breaking out of the supreme court. >> yeah, a major decision that deals a victory to a january 6th riot, possibly hundreds of others charged in connection with the assault on the capitol. in a 6-3 ruling the court said the law used was being used too broadly. notably, this vote did not fall along ideological lines, liberal justice ketanji brown jackson joined a majority conservative justice amy coney barrett filed a dissent. >> donald trump faces the exact same charge and questioned today in his election interference case. let's bring in kennedy rainian and georgetown law prfrs michelle goodwin. thank you for being here. ken, start with you, tell us about this january 6th rioter, how did the justices ultimately come to this decision and what is the justice department saying about all that? >> zinhle, joseph fischer is a former pennsylvania police officer who allegedly joined the crowd reaching the east side of

the capitol on january 6th and rushed a line of police officers. he's charged with several offenses, including the one at issue, obstruction of an official proceeding and what the court ruled today was that the law in question had been applied too broadly and that it must involve an effort to alter or fake documents, which is in one clause in the law. and it did not, in fischer's case. most of the january 6th defendants who are charged with this crime are also charged with other crimes, and prosecutors say there are only 27 people still serving a sentence based on this crime alone. the impact is pretty limited. donald trump is also charged with this crime in the special counsel's january 6th case against him but many legal experts believe the charge as interpreted still applies to mr. trump because his conduct involved documents, slates of fake electors. in a statement attorney general merrick garland said he was, quote, disappointed by today's decision which limits an important federal statute the department has sought to use to ensure that those most responsible for the attack face appropriate consequences, but garland said the prosecutions will continue. >> michelle, what does today's

ruling mean for the other january 6th defendants, and also former president donald trump and his election interference case? >> well, merrick garland has expressed it won't ultimately mean very much for the former president and these other individuals in that they have been charged with multiple crimes, not just this particular law, which the supreme court has said doesn't apply. keep in mind, that this is a 2002 law that was made in response to the enron case where there really wasn't a law that would capture the kind of criminality that was involved this that particular case. just as amy coney barrett said, this was basically the court getting involved in politicking, and that is to say that congress had written this, broadly enough, to cover what occurred on january 6th. and that the specific language of the statute itself says otherwise, and then otherwise

destroying or concealing government records or who obstructed, influenced or impeded any official proceeding of the government, which he said should apply, and she was joined by liberals on the court. >> michelle, while we have you, i also want to ask about another major decision today involving people experiencing homelessness on the west coast. can you explain this ruling, and what happens now? >> yes, well, this is a ruling where the supreme court has overturned lower court decisions coming out of the ninth circuit which essentially has said these anti-camping laws, which were about getting rid of homeless individuals from the streets, the ninth circuit had said that those were laws that violated the eighth amendment against cruel and unusual punishment when local municipalities had no provided homes or shelter, in the ruling today the supreme court has said it's not cruel and it's not unusual. >> ken dilanian, michelle

goodwin, thank you both, we appreciate it. president biden and his campaign are defiant today after he struggled on stage in the first presidential debate. >> the president held a campaign event in north carolina earlier today where he sounded much stronger than he did last night. >> i know, like millions of americans know, when you get knocked down, you get back up. >> during the debate the president sounded hoarse and stumbled while speaking several times. the president said afterward he had a sore throat. his performance is reenforcing fears many voters have about his age. >> former president donald trump is in virginia today, while he appeared more confident last night he also repeatedly lied throughout the debate. here's a recap. >> this place, the whole world is blowing up under him. >> president biden? >> i've never heard so much malarkey in my whole life.

he said i don't want to go in there because they're losers and suckers. you're the sucker, you're the loser. >> the general got fired because he was no good. if he said that, that's why he made it up. we're going to make this country successful again, right now it's a failing nation. my retribution is going to be success. >> the idea that you have a right to seek retribution against any american just because you're president is wrong. >> nbc news national political correspondent steve kornacki is at the big board. let's start with nbc news chief political analyst chuck todd, chuck, good to see you. start with biden, here a lot of democrats are now sounding the alarm about his debate performance, we even heard from "new york times" columnist tom friedman, a close friend of biden, he has an opinion piece, joe biden is a good man and a good president, he must bow out of the race. chuck, i imagine this is not the narrative the biden campaign was looking for in pushing for an earlier debate date. >> no, they were hoping the debate would create the contrast

with trump, that they were looking for, that was more that made this a referendum on trump and his character, and his four years in office, and instead this first debate is now, right now, turning in a referendum on whether biden is up to the job. i will say this. behind the scenes, the biden campaign is pretty frantic. and they're trying to send a message that, hey, you're wasting your time if you think he's going to get out. don't bother calling for it. they're really trying to not let anybody open the door and so far no major elected official has come out and said, you know, right now it's tom friedman, a columnist, it's former elected officials, it's former democratic strategists, it's not anybody currently in elected office. now, behind the scenes, there, if you took a vote of these folks they'd all like to see him step aside. but, i think the reason there hasn't been a sort of this

public move today is there's a lot of skepticism. if he doesn't voluntarily do this, isn't willing to go. >> yeah. >> then you're just going to divide the party further and make it worse. so, there's still a lot of hand wringing today, but it is notable to me who hasn't wrapped their arms around him. you haven't seen a nancy pelosi yet, or a barack obama, those are people i'm waiting to hear from. >> chuck, when you're talking to your sources within the biden campaign, what do they feel like needs to happen, or what does the president need to do between the next debate, which is september 10th, right, and then the actual election, what do they think needs to change? >> well, i think they're going to argue that -- and what they've argued to me is that, hey, this isn't going to change the race the way the pundits think it is or the way twitter says it is. they may be right about that. they're trying to comfort themselves and maybe there will only be a one or two point shift

away from them and that over time is recoverable. the real problem that they have is there isn't a state of the union coming up where he can show vigor. there isn't, you know, the democratic convention is in the middle of august. it's going to be a long six weeks before he gets to show vigor. >> that's true. and chuck, we've got to talk about former president trump's performance, his answers, filled with falsehoods, exaggerations without much live fact correction. did he do anything, though, to win over new voters last night? >> and that's the irony. he didn't have a good night. but because biden had such a catastrophic night, and i'm sorry, he did, i mean, this is about as bad of a performance of a presidential debate that any major presidential candidate has done, the closest i can come to is admiral stockdale, ross perot's running mate back in 1992 who infamously said who am i? why am i here? trump was not good. in fact, i heard from some nervous -- wait a minute, you know, as bad as biden was, so

was trump. >> right. >> you know, he stepped in it on january 6th. he's just lucky biden did such a poor job pushing back on the january 6th answers. but he gave answers that many folks that i talked to thought would be damaging in the fall, and campaign ads. >> we'll see how it plays out. chuck todd, thanks so much. nbc news national political correspondent steve kornacki is at the big board. president biden's age has been a concern for a while now. a lot of talk also about the other candidate, trump's age. talk to us about the latest polling numbers, does age matter? >> this was the backdrop for what happened last night in the conversation taking place. now, go back to four years ago, trump, biden, the first time around, our poll, we asked the question of the candidates then, who's better when it comes to having the necessary mental and physical health to be president. four years ago in that campaign, there were concerns about both, but they both kind of rated equally on this question. into joe biden's presidency several years later, we have seen his numbers decline pretty

significantly, but not trump's, asked the same question at the start of this year, and this time look at the result we got here, biden's number plummeting from 41% to 23%. trump's number actually ticking up a bit. so that's part of it. and then there's this, on the eve of the debate this week, "the new york times" had a poll that came out. asked the question this way, do you think age is such an issue with these candidates that they're not capable of handling the presidency, 45% said biden, 16 trump and that was before the debate. >> steve, that was before the debate. now, we're here, the biden campaign says he is not dropping out of the race. hypothetically, though, if he were to, what other options are there? >> and that's a big problem for democrats because it's not clear what the answer to that would be. look, logically, if the president steps aside, the vice president would step in. we've seen kamala harris run for president before. she certainly seems to have the ambition. but look, two recent polls on the favorable, unfavorable question. these are harris's numbers, not very good, majority unfavorable,

and compared to biden's in this fox news poll, biden was 44 favorable, harris just 41, 37 here, biden was 39. so, if harris steps in, it's not clear the political situation gets any better for democrats when you get beyond that. you just don't have democrats with automatic national stature. >> steve kornacki, really helpful, thank you so much. americans in nationwide are getting an early jump on the july 4th holiday where severe july 4th holiday where severe weather is threatening to rain my moderate to severe plaque psoriasis held me back... now with skyrizi, i'm all in with clearer skin. ♪ things are getting clearer ♪ (♪♪) ♪ i feel free ♪ (♪♪) ♪ to bare my skin, yeah that's all me. ♪ ♪ nothing is everything ♪ (♪♪) with skyrizi, 3 out of 4 people achieved 90% clearer skin at 4 months. and most people were clearer even at 5 years.

welcome back, let's talk about your money now, and new economic data that shows inflation is slowing. >> today the commerce department released what's called the personal consumption pce, measures the changes in prices of things you buy. from may 2023 to may 2024 prices rose 2.6%. that's the lowest year over year rate in more than three years. nbc news senior business correspondent christine romans joins us now to break it all down. talk to us about what these numbers mean, what stands out to you, and for the average american, what do we need to know? >> pce, three years ago the average american did not care about these numbers, it is what the fed watches to measure inflation. inflation, higher prices for everything you're paying, what this is showing you is inflation is slowing a little bit. and so this is good news for

consumers, and anyone borrowing money, and for businesses, you know, that rely on borrowing money to grow. so 2.6% year over year, the fed would like to see 2%, that is the slowest growth in three years, that's an important milestone in this big inflation fight we've been going through here. >> the fed wants two, we're at 2.6. and they watch this number closely. what are the chances then of interest rate changes. >> we saw the numbers we saw on your screen, consumer spending was a little bit softer, earnings were up. people were making more money. more cautious on spending and inflation is coming down. that might mean the fed is in a position at some point later this year to actually cut interest rates after all those big rate hikes, cutting interest rates is good news. it means that the fed is stopping -- think of raising interest rates as tapping on the brakes of an economy that's going too fast. so, look cutting interest rates would be coming off the brakes a little bit and signaling that the economy, while still doing

well is not overheated and inflation is under control. >> christine romans, thank you so much, we appreciate it. >> thank you. all across the country people are gearing up for the holidays. >> yes, if you are traveling some of that severe weather we've been talking about all week could really put a damper on your plans, the tsa expects to screen more than 3 million people to date alone. that would top the all-time record, which was just set sunday. and the roads are expected to be pretty busy as well. aaa predicts a record-breaking 60 million people will drive to their 4th of july destinations. nbc news correspondent priya sridhar is keeping an eye on things in the busiest airport in the world, in atlanta. today is the peak of this holiday travel period. i understand the airport has already been packed. talk to us about what you're seeing. >> that's right, ellison, well, here in atlanta they're expecting about 367,000 people to pass through the tsa check points as you mentioned, 3 million across all the tsa check

points across the country. today is expected to be the most volume of passengers, they're passing last sunday, was you mentioned, but we're expecting a high volume of passengers on saturday and sunday, july 7th. this is really a nine-day travel period, one of the things contributing to that is the fact that domestic airfare is down 18% since last summer with the average round trip ticket price domestically costing around $263. we're also seeing many people choosing to hit the roads this holiday period, and that's partly because the average price of gas per gallon nationally is at $3.50 per gallon, which is up a nickel from last week, but actually down six cents since last year, so, all of that is contributing to the fact that many people are choosing to come to the airports and also hit the roads. and break records this summer travel season. >> and priya, you hit on air travel, can you just briefly

tell us about driving? >> reporter: yeah, that's right, so they're expecting that the best time to hit the roads, if you don't want to deal with too much travel, or traffic congestion, i should say, would be monday is the best day, tuesday evening is also pretty good, try to drive, if you can, anytime before 2:00 p.m., they say the roads are expected to be the busiest between 2:00 and 7:00 p.m. on july 4th. guys? >> awesome, priya sridhar, thanks so much. coming up, a massive cyberattack paralyzes car dealerships nationwide. what drivers in the market for a new ride need to know. that's next on "nbc news daily." node-positive breast cancer. my fear of recurrence could've held me back. but i'm staying focused. and doing more to prevent recurrence. verzenio is specifically for hr-positive, her2-negative, node-positive early breast cancer with a high chance of returning, as determined by your doctor when added to hormone therapy. verzenio reduces the

this neighborhood here, just west of union city boulevard and north of gene drive. you're looking at about 5 or 10 acres that burned. the fire is out right now. firefighters are just doing mop up. but it was a quite frightening for the people who live in this neighborhood when it started. you can see why this is a security camera. footage from one of the homes that butts up against the open space here where this fire started. now, what might not be evidence is that there is a large swath of wetlands, marsh and a stone wall separating the area that burned from the neighborhood. so the risk of this fire coming into the neighborhood was relatively low, especially given the fact that, according to the fire department, the winds were not that high. but still, as i mentioned, a matter of concern for people who live here. it's just like a sense of unease. and just like all the different stories of fires and napa and lahaina and it's kind of freak me out because it's also kind of close to the power lines, and there's nothing back here other than brush. there is a large

transmission line that runs over the area that burned, and pg&e is out here along with the fire department. it's not clear if this transmission line might have sparked and caused the fire. if this fire was caused by something else that is still to be determined here in union city. bob redell nbc bay area news. bob, thanks very much. a big day for oakland city leaders are voting on this year's and next year's budget proposals, and they could approve $63 million in budget cuts. here's why. the city is working on closing a $177 million budget gap. well, last month, mayor sheng thao proposed a budget that included selling the oakland coliseum property to reduce the budget. but that sale might not happen fast enough. so the mayor proposed cuts to parks, libraries, animal services, police and fire departments in the south bay. a legendary judo coach has died. yoshihiro uchida coached at san jose state for more than 80 years. he died yesterday at 104.

arredondo, the school police chief. it had been a long time for people waiting for this, these with the first charges against officers that have been brought. so, according to the indictment the chief or former chief arredondo failed to identify this incident as an active shooter incident and failed to respond as training to an active shooter incident and instead called s.w.a.t., thereby delaying the response of the law enforcement officers, now, we do know that a second officer has been indicted according to the parents of one of the victims, we're still waiting to get more information on the charges, but we understand that these are similar charges, so, right now, we're looking at ten charges against former chief pete arredondo, ten counts of abandoning and endangering a child and, again, these are the first charges brought against officers that responded that day, ellison. >> guad, what has the reaction been like from victims' families? >> reporter: ellison, from day one the families were very upset

because when you -- officers delayed entering that classroom and there was a lot of anger right when this happened and they wanted justice. they've wanted the investigation. so we had the justice department go in and do their report, the one that released this information, 600 pages, and now a lot of parents say this is the moment they've been waiting for, but it's also difficult to remember this tragedy. so, it's a bittersweet moment for some of them, it brings justice, but for others, it's remembering something they want to put behind them. let's hear from one of the relatives of one of the victims. >> i don't consider this a happy moment, lives are still being ruined because of this, and unfortunately they did not do their job. >> reporter: you know, also earlier today the uncle of one of the victims spoke to our sister network telemundo and said that although they feel like justice is moving forward, they do want to see more officers being held accountable for what happened that day, the largest number of officers present that day were from the

texas department of public safety. so we'll have to wait and see what else happens as investigations move forward. >> guad venegas, thank you. well, ellison, fresh off the debate president biden is in new york city today to honor a historic milestone for the lgbtq+ community. he'll be attending the grand opening of the stonewall national monument visitor center, the first lgbtq+ visitor center to be recognized by the national park service, and it's connected to the stonewall inn, which became the birthplace of the modern gay rights movement 55 years ago. nbc news correspondent steven romo is near that new visitor center in new york city, joins us now. so, steven, sounds like the who's who, everyone's going to be there, including elton john. talk to us about what we should expect from today's ceremony. >> reporter: yeah, so much excitement, zinhle, president biden expected to be here as you mentioned, also elton john, the piano is actually up on the stage, they've been testing it out for the sound checks, very exciting. haven't actually spotted elton

new york city. you have been talking with folks who are out there, part of the lgbtq+ community, what are they saying about what opening means to them? >> reporter: yeah, it's just fascinating hearing the difference of opinions of what's happening, many people reflecting on how much progress has been made, but some people still mentioning how much progress is left to go, mentioning the 500 plus bills the aclu is reporting, that are going through state legislatures right now, that go after lgbtq+ rights. but all in all, it's the time of celebration and reflection on what happened here today, and the actual visitor center, you can see a panel talking about specific people who were involved in stonewall, it is a sight to see, and it's all starting today where people can come and take a look themselves. >> so glad you get to help us take a look. steven romo, thanks so much. for the millions of americans who own or are looking to buy a car, this summer holiday season, well, they could be hitting some major roadblocks at their local dealerships. a key piece of software used by

most car dealers is offline after a crippling cyberattack. the hack is affecting thousands of businesses, and it's leading to costly delays for dealers and customers. nbc news correspondent morgan chesky spoke to dealers about all of this, and he joins us now with more, so, morgan, what do we know about who was behind this attack, and what are you hearing about the impact it's having on business? >> reporter: yeah, ellison, the investigation still very much ongoing, cybersecurity experts say that they believe it's traced to a hacking group located somewhere in eastern europe, the impact has been incredibly vast. we first reported on this last week, and here we are, seven days later, still seeing the consequences play out in dealerships all across the country, right now, we know this specific company that was targeted, ellison, is cdk global, they are essentially a vendor to tens of thousands of dealerships nationwide who use them for their operating

systems. i spoke to one dealer who says that it touches almost every aspect of his business, and we've heard bit by bit how this has impacted both the dealer and the consumer, ellison, and at one point dealers dug up a typewriter so they could try to fill out forms to keep business moving as their computers ground to a halt here because they rely on those cdk systems, we're going to hear from one of those dealers outside l.a. in his own words about this ongoing impact from the cyberattack. >> we can't order parts when people come in and get service you have to write them up by hand. if i have to get a part i can't order it on the machine. the cdk talks to the factory, the cdk talks to the banks and check writing, payables, receivables, everything is shut down. >> reporter: there is not one aspect of your business that's not impacted? >> i can't continue to do business with it down.

>> reporter: and the owner says that while he does have staff that's pulling out the pen and paper to try to close these deals, it's certainly adding to precious time and losing valuable business the longer this goes on. >> what's the advice for customers who might be impacted by this hack? >> reporter: well, number one, be patient. if you have to buy a vehicle for some reason, immediately, try to reach out to your dealer ahead of time, as it could be a case-by-case basis how they're operating and to what extent cdk's hacking problem is impacting them. but most of all, just be patient. there will be a solution coming, although, not yet. ellison? >> morgan chesky, thank you. now, let's head to denmark. where the country is trying out something no other place has done to reduce the effects of climate change. >> uh-huh. they want to tax farmers for gassy cows, pigs, and sheep, you did hear that right.

we said gassy, these animals naturally produce greenhouse gases, specifically meth that i know and their burps and farts make the earth warmer. it was a compromise when the government, farmer representatives, the farming industry and unions, let's bring in nbc climate reporter chase cain, chase, why cows, pigs and sheeps. it feels like they're being unfairly targeted when a lot of animals and people do that too. >> yeah, cows are really a big emitter of methane, the average cow over the course of a year can burp and fart about 50 pounds of methane, you see up to 265 pounds a year. that's a lot more than a pig or a person, even the gassiest of people. methane is much more potent than carbon dioxide, only stays in the atmosphere for 20 years but in that time it can trap heat 90 times more effectively. a lot more heat is getting

trapped by methane being released by these cows when they burp and pass gas. >> super helpful. how will this tax plan work, and does it appear it would be effective, truly, in curbing the effects of climate change? >> reporter: i think it's going the to depend upon how badly you want that cheeseburger or how badly you want, you know, that butter or that milk. basically, the farmers are going to be taxed, and so of course they're going to pass that cost along to the end consumer. does this change habits? does this sort of prompt farmers to produce less, to have fewer cows? we'll have to wait and see. but denmark will be the first country to successfully pass this law. new zealand tried to do a similar thing. there is a real cost here, the equivalent of u.s. dollars is about $17 per ton. you multiply that by, you know, all the tons that a typical danish cow can produce, and that could add up. >> chase, before we let you go i want to ask you about this big decision that came today from the supreme court, the conservative majority overturned

a 40-year-old precedent that essentially cuts down the power of federal agencies. could you talk to us about the environmental impact of that ruling? >> reporter: yeah, there are broad implications for what this could mean. let's talk about it through an environmental lens, let's say that congress passes regulation related to environmental regulation or climate change, and then it's up to the epa to carry out that law. but then when the epa looks at it, if the law isn't clear that congress passed, then the epa previously has been able to say we're the experts here, here's how we think this should happen. what the supreme court decision does is it says no more epa, you don't get to fill in the blanks and decide what congress didn't explicitly spell out for you. now the courts will have the authority to step in. so, it's kind of taking away the expertise, or experience of these federal agencies. >> all right, chase cain, thank you as always, we appreciate it. coming up, we are going to talk about body language, and expert shares her tips on ecoming fluent,

in today's mental health check we're decoding body language. you might not realize it but your body gestures could be giving away your true feelings. >> understanding body language can help you feed on non-verbal

cues, and become a better communicator. joining us is tasha brown, a licensed clinical psychologist, we're so excited to talk about this because as discussed, we have a lot of expressive -- there's been a story when i've been filling in with you where the post reaction on a story that changed was so obvious that we were surprised. what can we learn from watching people's body language movements and facial expressions. >> i love this conversation because we can't talk about communication without talking about our body language. we can learn a lot from body language, what a person's feeling, we can learn what mood they might be in. we can learn how they're responding or how they may be thinking through what it is that you're saying. the important thing to remember, though, is although you may look at someone and look at their body language, it's important not to make a lot of assumptions about what that body language may be meaning in the context of your conversation. >> let's talk first about positive body language.

can you give us examples of that, how we might be able to emulate that, and what does it normally signal? >> smiling, making direct eye contact, in some cases, depending who you're with, physical touch. we do this thing naturally when we're speaking with someone, like we mirror their body language a little bit. if that's occurring, those are all positive parts of communication with our bodies. >> what about negative? what is like the red flag that if somebody's leaning away, we should be like, we're out. >> distance is really important. if you notice that someone is starting to like, go back a little bit, crossing their arms, rolling their eyes, making bigger gestures, those are all forms of body language that very often can cause tension or conflict or misinterpretation in the context of conversation. >> but you made an important point not to draw too many assumptions, solely based on someone's body language. some people maybe have a more

solemn demeanor, but perhaps they're not actually feeling the best. maybe look sad, or vice versa. what do you recommend for that on both sides? >> yeah, number one, take into consideration everything that plays a role in communication. our body language is influenced by our culture, it's influenced by our family. our context, and so, you may be in spaces where your body language is fully accepted, and then go somewhere else and someone have a very different interpretation of what's going on. remembering that when you are engaging with someone, there's so much at play. >> yeah. >> that is occurring within the conversation. and just that little acknowledgment can really be helpful. >> how could we work to improve our non-verbal communication? specifically, and say a work environment versus home. >> yeah, number one, just be aware of the expectations around body language and communication, and then, practice, ask each other questions, ask your

trusted colleagues, friends, family, hey, is there something with my body language that i do that is sometimes offputing or something you think i need to work on, practice with them, practice in the mirror, and in conversations intentionally telling yourself, okay, i'm going to be talking to today, i'm going to be mindful of making sure i'm smiling or not using as many hand gestures, those could be helpful. >> quick tips on body language we should be listening to. >> maintaining eye contact, making sure you're respecting everyone's personal boundaries, sometimes getting too close into someone's personal space is a big part of body language that big part of body language that impacts and sometimes if you spit blood when you brush, it could be the start of a domino effect. new parodontax active gum repair breath freshener. clinically proven to help reverse the four signs of early gum disease. a new toothpaste from parodontax, the gum experts.
