>> welcome. the u.s. house overwhelmingly voted today to pass a bill that could band tiktok in the u.s. unless it cuts ties with china. last night we heard from the lead sponsors of the bell about why the legislation is necessary. tonight, we hear from an opposing voice. he is the civil liberties director and senior staff attorney at the electronic rent here foundation. you oppose this bill on first amendment grounds. we talked to the lead sponsors. one of them said of china's practices that there is no first amendment right to espionage. why is he wrong in your opinion? >> he is not thinking about the first amendment rights of u.s. people who want to use tiktok. they have a right to use communication tools like tiktok to get information. i understand that. he is first concerned with that.

we are concerned about the first amendment rights of u.s. users. >> doesn't china present a special case? to the fbi director said china is the defining threat of this generation. the chinese coming this partly requires chinese companies to share information and user data upon request. that is the perceived threat. >> i defer to the fbi director

on the threat posed by china. the u.s. does much of the same thing through national security letters the u.s. has many of these same tools. china is not unique among nations in requiring companies thereto provide internet user data. the question is whether forcing the sale or blaming -- banning the platform as it currently operates is the properly tailored way to address this threat. the government has not talked about this law in terms of the

first amendment scrutiny and the specificity that the first amendment requires. >> what would be a more appropriate solution? >> a few things. the justification for this law keeps on changing. yesterday, those who supported it had been very strongly saying that it is not about the content on tiktok at all. it is about national security. i think what we saw from your interview yesterday and from a lot of the statements made on

the floor today, this is very much a concern about the content that u.s. users get from tiktok. we heard this yesterday. they talked about how in china they get content about healthy living. in the u.s., it is about drug paraphernalia. we know this is clearly about content. it is very difficult under the first amendment for the government to restrict content. if the goal of the bill is to say, we do not like the content you are getting, that is a very difficult thing for the children to do. >> if tiktok is forced to divest, how does that infringe upon someone's first amendment rights. i can still post whatever i am posting a matter who owns it. >> there are a couple of things that could happen. one is that it could shut down.

those who previously used the site and received information from it would not get that anymore. if they are sold to a u.s. company or other ownership, that still may affect first amendment rights because the new owners may have different editorial policies. it seems like based on the comments of the people on your show yesterday that they want it to have different editorial policies. to show different content and treated in different ways. that is an infringement on the first amendment rights of the user. what congress wants is for them to get different information. by having different ownership

and different editorial policies. i think we have all seen what a change in ownership can mean for the editorial policies of a social media company. whether they want to engage with that service. >> you and your organization have called for comprehensive data privacy legislation. how exactly would th work and how would it solve the tiktok problem? >> this really relies on if the problem is a data privacy problem, and this is what some people have said early on, a concern that too much u.s. user data was flowing to the chinese government. and that represents a national security concern. we agree that the flow of u.s. user data is a serious problem. not just for national security but for individual privacy. you address privacy concerns by passing privacy laws. what we do not have in the u.s. is comprehensive data privacy regulation that controls how much data companies can collect about their users in the first base. the extent to which they can retain and share such data. if companies are not collecting and retaining and sharing so much data in the first place, we would not need to single out tiktok for such exceptional treatment.

it is hard to take congress seriously about data privacy if they do not pass data privacy laws. if they don't look at how tiktok and other social media companies retain social media data. how data purchasers redistribute the data to lots of actors, and looting governments and our enemies. >> thank you for your time and insights as evening. >> thank you for having me. >> a judge in georgia tossed out six charges against president trump and his allies.

one of the dismissed counts involved him urging the secretary of state to find thousands of votes to overturn the election. the superior court judge found the charges too broad. he said the lack of detail is fatal. prosecutors will have the option of seeking a new indictment related to the dismissed counts. six palestinians have died in clashes are across the occupied west bank. a teenager was killed after he allegedly stabbed israeli

cronkite school of journalism at arizona state university. >> the race for the white house is officially a rematch. the two most occupants -- most recent occupants prepared to face off. on his first day as the democratic nominee, president biden was in wisconsin. >> my predecessor failed in his duty to care. now we are building a future america for possibilities >> the general election matchup is now official. after sweeping four states yesterday, donald trump secured enough delegates to become the gop nominee. >> we have the worst president in the history of our country. >> i would love to see our country represented not by

somebody in their 80's who is a white man. >> we do not have exceptional candidates right now. it was a difficult decision. >> the president won 95% of the vote in georgia and 85% of the vote in washington's date. >> i did not feel comfortable giving him my support again. i want to devote uncommitted today to send that message. people are not going to continue voting for whoever is in office as a democrat. >> other democrats say the stakes are too high for symbolic protest votes. >> i am voting for joe biden all the way through. it is an important election this year. probably the most important we have ever faced. >> i have never in my lifetime seeing this economy as bad as it is now. i am all for donald trump and i want everybody to come out. i want a red wave come november.

>> trump will spend some time off the campaign trail. he will be back in a record in florida facing charges of mishandling classified documents and obstructing justice. his hush money trial starts later this month in new york. the focus will stay -- soon turned to battleground states. and what will be the longest general election campaign in modern his career. let's bring in the former communications director. donald trump lost georgia by fewer than 12,000 votes in 2020. nikki haley won more than 77,000

votes even though she quit the race last week. a lot of those folks voted early. that was a protest vote against donald trump. how alarm should the trump campaign be? >> they should take this very seriously. this is something i learned before in north carolina. i went to a nikki haley event. what i saw was a room that was jammed. to handle the crowd. there was something real going on in our room. you are looking at a state like

georgia, if 20% of those who voted for nikki haley do not support donald trump, that is a real problem for the trump campaign. pushing people away will not be the answer. politics should be about addition, not subtraction. donald trump needs to learn that i lesson this week and moving forward. >> donald trump has not shown an ability or even a willingness to ask van his base of support outside of people who already support him. he has an unusually strong floor of support but also a low ceiling of support. how does he deal with that? >> did you look at the polling trend, for years now donald trump has been relatively flat. there are not a lot of places for him to go. we will see him try to start to appeal to some voters that he very proactively turned off. he will have to say, and join. going to those people who do not

like donald trump and do not like joe biden. who think that trump is better on a lot of issues. those issues and a lot more where joe biden is very deeply underwater, you will hear him talk about those more and more. the problem is he is still donald trump. he will overshadow himself by talking about judges hate him. insulting as many people as he can. that turns off of the voters that he needs. >> i want to draw on your experience. donald trump has cemented his control of the republican national committee. they affirmed his handpicked leaders, including his daughter-in-law. this is not unheard of. still, within rnc that is organized to support donald trump, what does that for

republicans running down ballot? >> that is where the concern will be. laura trump said the only priority is to elect donald trump. you need to be concerned about that. but that is where you have the other party committees working with the rnc to make sure money is flowing to states in all direction. you do have concerns about money being spent on other activities, whether it is legal bills or what have you. this makes the congressional committees that much more important.

>> when you look at how the rnc has been hollowed out with the installation of loyalists including lawyers who worked for him, one of whom has just been named to the senior counsel for election integrity, what does any of that suggest about the way donald trump would govern if he has a second term? >> some of that is business as usual. there are biden loyalists. you are a loyalist to your party when you are the chair. a lot of this is very normal and what happens when someone becomes the nominee. some of this is cause for concern. we need to see more about if they will be start -- smart about how they redirect their money. making sure the ains run on time. that there is money for those trains. he is a pro. somebody who will be very effective in that job. on the issue of election

integrity, we often hear about polling that shows voters are concerned about democracy. a lot of those are republicans who think the election was stolen. it does not surprise me that donald trump would hire people who will subscribe to that worldview. that is what happens in politics. >> thank you as always. >> thank you. >> tens of thousands of unaccompanied children arrived on the u.s.-mexico border each year, most coming from central america. it is a long, often dangerous journey. we talked to a group of sisters making the trek alone. >> just yesterday, and a remote stretch of the arizona border with mexico, we met three sisters. one is 14, 1 is 13, and the smallest is just eight. they just made the journey from southern mexico up to the u.s. border. their mother had left years ago to come to the states to support her family. they had been living with a

great-grandmother who could no longer care for them. here is what one of them told us about this trip. how did you know where to go over to go with? >> we got to know a group and we started trusting each other and helping each other. >> why did you leave in the first place? >> because it is too dangerous. there is a lot of drug trafficking and other stuff. >> as remarkable as it is to see three young girls who have made that very long, very dangerous tourney on their own, the sisters are part of a growing trend being seen at the border. more unaccompanied minors arriving there. in 2022 record high. they are coming from more and more countries. officials say they have seen unaccompanied children from as far away as egypt, india, and

china. >> these journeys are incredibly dangerous for anyone, let alone three young girls traveling without adults. what did they say about that? >> the girls in many ways are lucky. they traveled on planes and buses and then on foot four hours. we spoke to the mother on the phone and were able to talk to her notches to get her permission to speak with the girls but also to hear what she had to say. she said she felt she had no choice. she told her daughter's to stay calm and stick together. i asked the youngest is she was

scared at any point in the journey. >> no. >> why not? because you are with your sisters? when we met the girls, they had been out there for hours. the humanitarian aid group offered it to them. they were waiting for the border control to come and pick them up. when we left them on my hours went by. because of something asian lack of resources, they somehow got left behind with a larger migrant group. it was pitch black in rough terrain. it is dangerous with the cartels coming through. the girls called their mother, who called us. we alerted border patrol that there were unaccompanied children still out there. all of this underscores how incredibly precarious this journey can be, even when the girls thought they had reached

safety. >> what happens now to those three young girls and other unaccompanied minors were making similar track -- treks. >> they will be passed into hhs custody. they have a system to care for and how unaccompanied minors. we will continue to follow their story. the larger you -- question is how will the u.s. continue to provide an air or a rising number of unaccompanied children coming from further and further afield. that is just one of the challenges to deal with. >> incredible reporting by you and your team there. we will see you back here tomorrow. >> thank you. >> today, the top spokesperson for israel publicly suggested that israel has a plan to evacuate many of the more than one million people who have fled

to southern gaza. this comes as the u.s. continues to call on israel to allow more humanitarian aid into the area. what plant does israel have when it comes to attacking rafah and then moving civilians out of harm's way? >> u.s. officials say there is no plan. the top military spokesman said today that they have a plan to evacuate a significant number of gazans who have fled. they would be evacuated to humanitarian islands in gazan. he gave no more detail than that. the u.s. officials i've spoken to are very skeptical that this is actually a plan. >> they are cast to be if there is going to be military operations in rafah a clear and implementable plan to get

civilians out of harm's way and provide for them. we have not seen that plan. is it possible? it is possible. but we have not seen it. thmost important thing is to see it. and to make sure it is something that can be implemented. >> u.s. officials i've spoken to are skeptical that there would ever be a plan that israel has to evacuate all those people. they do believe israel is serious about going into rafah because the final four battalions of hamas are there. israel says they must be defeated. which led to warnings about what would happen if israel goes into rafah and what multiple officials say are considerations what happens. there could be votes in the

security council to conditioning the use and sale of weapons to israel. but we are a long way from that. >> the u.s. is still trying to get a hostage deal. what is the latest? there has been an effort in the region trying to get a passive forward. what u.s. officials fear is that hamas is biding time, hoping during ramadan that israel will make a move that would inflame opinion and alleviate some of the pressure that is being put on hamas, especially by qatar right now. part of that is for loss once the world -- hamas once the world to focus on the humanitarian crisis. >> one that is very real. >> especially about food. they say all of the 2.2 million people in gazan are in food crisis. one quarter of gazans is one

step away from famine. as the holy month of ramadan begins, there is simply not enough food to go around. >> there is fasting and then there is starving. many gazans now say they are doing both. at this soup kitchen, families struggle for a small pot of soup. before ramadan, this was the only meal. sustenance to stop starvation. during ramadan, it is the meal that breaks their fast. he is the organizer and head chef. his team organized for us. we spoke to him on a patchy phone link. >> they would starve without

this. >> ramadan is about charity and family. they try to be generous together. three generations starting food. they start preparation at don. -- dawn. >> i feel happy to see young children eat. >> they have no school to attend. so she does the stirring. >> i miss my friends in school. i miss my home. i hope we can go back to the way it was before. my dream is for the war to end. that we are safe. >> those dreams are deferred. this ramadan is defined by displacement and deprivation. most have fled their homes. the u.n. warns that gossett is approaching famine. >> people are stealing from each other so they do not starve to death. there are many orphans asking for food. >> man-made famine is real. families are hurting. >> he is based in the u.s.. >> they could still find some potatoes. they kept growing.

is it enough? no, but it is good for our neighbors and friends. >> on the first day of ramadan, they served soup with some lamb to thousands. >> 5% of the people of god's are either killed, injured, or missing. our family will have six less people. >> they were killed when the family home was bombed. >> i feel sad for the loss of my brother. he was my buddy and my sidekick. we say we are resilient people but that has gone down. >> humanitarian groups say the soup kitchen is only necessary because israel is not allowing

enough aid into gazans. israel says that it does not block aid. last night they opened a new truck route directly into northern gossett. >> this was a pilot to prevent a loss from taking -- hamas from taking over the aid as they normally do. >> the u.s. will continue dropping aid by air. their plans for soldiers to build a tear. -- pier. >> there is movement. it is positive. but it remains insufficient. israel still needs to open as many access points as possible and keep them open. >> traditionally, aid is delivered by these groups. >> israel accuses multiple members of participating in the october 7 terrorist attack. of being intertwined with hamas.

is that true? >> i am horrified reading the news about those organizations. >> in december, israeli forces determine -- detained gazans they accused of being members of hamas. >> they humiliated us, stripped us, took us to the coast. we were on the sand all day in the cold. i thought, we are not leaving here, we are going to die.

>> the soup kitchen was born. this ramadan is about charity amid catastrophe. >> we are going to shift our focus to the latest concerns about boeing and aviation safety. the aerospace giant remains on the hot seat over important questions about manufacturing and production processes. the head of the ntsb told lawmakers do not know who worked on the door panel a key supplier failed a number of recent audits.

boeing reportedly failed 33 of them. >> we have increased our audit and oversight capability very significantly. if we see something that requires us to cease production, we will do that. we are continuing that oversight. we are demanding that they come up with a detailed plan for the next 90 days to fix the quality issues that are out there. >> equally unnerving, a series of problems and flights in the last week, including several on united airlines. they have been half a dozen incidents, including one flight that had to turn around after an engine caught fire. on monday, a flight dropped suddenly and temporarily in mid air.

the plane landed safely but more than 50 people suffered injuries. one passenger woke up suddenly to the stair. -- scare. >> i looked ahead and there was a guy on the ceiling. there were people flying through the air going across the aisles. >> let's praying in our aviation correspondent. always great to see you. let's start with boeing. an audit revealed that the company failed an evaluation. 33 of 89 audits. put that into context for us. what more can you tell us? >> those numbers are kind of stunning. they used the euphemism, quality escape. that is a lot of escaping. that causes a lot of concern about what is going on on the factory floor at boeing. also very importantly here you have to ask the question, where

was the faa in advance of all of this? why weren't these audits ongoing? as we have discussed several times, the faa has moved to a system where manufacturers do their own inspecting. obviously we have a problem with a conflict of interest. to the extent that there are faa inspectors involved, in most cases they are requesting and receiving paperwork, not necessarily putting things out on the factory floor. when the administrator says they need to rethink all of this, it is a big wreath thank because the way they do things is allowing a lot of safety problems to escape into the market.

that is not what anybody wants to hear. >> the ntsb seems to be saying that boeing is not cooperating. how do you interpret those comments? they don't even know who was working on the door panel. >> they would like to speak to the machinist who actually did the work on that door which escaped from the alaska airlines flight. what happened? what did they do or not do? what was on the checklist?

it is not a criminal proceeding. this is just an effort to understand what went wrong. this is how aviation gets safer, you learn from it and you make better moves in the future. boeing so far has blocked that effort. you have to ask the question, why would the manufacture do that? why wouldn't it be the interest of aviation safety for those machinists to speak to the ntsb so lessons to be learned? >> we also learned that alaska airlines flight was scheduled for a safety check that same day that the door plano -- panel blew off. there were engineers concerned about warning lights. are there times when it is ok to fly when warning lights are going off? >> pilots have a minimum equipment list -- list. things that might not be working completely but you can still dispatch and take off with. these lights were on that list. you could fly and get it to maintenance in a reasonable course as opposed to grounding the aircraft. in retrospect, maybe that s not great. however, there were no other signs or symptoms of trouble with the pressurization system. the crew or passengers would feel popping in their user feel a rushing of wind. none of that was occurring. they all knew it was a bad sensor. the decision to wait until they got to seattle in retrospect was probably ok. >> here we are three months later. do we still know enough about the circumstances? >> we are getting there. but it would be nice to talk to

all the parties involved. exactly what they were thinking. everything that is done in aviation has a checklist. the process of tilting aircraft is no different than that. this particular activity, taking off the door to fix some rivets, does not into the system. it was kind of an ad hoc move to make a fix. back kind of detail is very important to understand how that slipped through the cracks and how those bolts were not put in place. >> amid all of this, a veteran boeing employee and a whistleblower involved in quality control died by suicide. what more can you tell us about his case and his deposition? >> he worked for a long time in the south carolina plant for boeing that produces the 787. his whistleblower case has been

around quality control issues. at the core of his testimony is the idea that parts taken out of the production line by workers, with the concern that they were not up to snuff, and put to the side, were not properly evaluated but rather were put right back on onto aircraft flying around the world. that is a big concern. that deposition was a very heated one from the company officials. what that might have to do with what happened later, we do not know. but it is a tragic end to his story. >> as we mentioned, they have been a series of incidents involving boeing planes with different airlines. how concerning is all of this? >> it is kind of all over the map. cases where wheels are falling off could be contributed to maintenance.

an aircraft taxing of a runway is probably pilot error. an engine flameout is on the manufacturer. a plane had a precipitous fall between australia and new zealand. what drives that is hard to say. the aviation industry was clobbered by the pandemic. it lost experienced people in every quarter. factory floors, control towers, cockpits. people who screw on the wheels to airplanes. all of those places lost experienced during covid when people retired. this and is struggling to keep up with all of that. it is worrisome. >> we appreciate your insights. >> thank you. >> for many americans, politics has become far more personal and divisive. now in the run-up to the november election, that is creating friction in families. tonight, we look at the impact of politics on marriages,

dating, and families as part of our ongoing series. >> for this family, politics is never too far from home. >> whom are you voting for? >> i will go with biden. >> trump. >> joe biden all of the way. >> they were married nine years ago. they have always butted heads, even making light of it in their wedding vows. >> i said something about still loving him even though he votes wrong. we last. >> she is the executive director of colorado wins, a labor union representing thousands of state employees. she has always been a diehard liberal. >> as long as i can remember, i have been a democrat. >> her husband is on the opposite side.

he voted for donald trump. >> he is probably not that nice of a guy. but i think overall his policies probably have my best interests in mind. >> he says he will vote for him again in november if he is the nominee. >> the economy was good. >> both admit it has led to shouting matches. >> it comes out of nowhere. >> it does get heated. we have big fights. we have heard there are people who are opposite parties and they just avoid the topic. i don't understand how people do the. politics is a big deal to me. >> they are part of a small minority in america that is growing even smaller, marriages between democrats and republicans. this polarized time when politics have become so personal has led to fewer people dating and marrying people with

different views. and it is one factor in a decline in marriages. they have dropped by 60% since the 1970's. >> people are waiting longer. or for going. part of the challenge is there are different biological camps. >> the director of the national marriage project at the university of virginia studies the impact of marriage on society. >> a much larger share of young women who are in the more progressive camp has more than doubled since the 1980's. women who are identifying as liberal. we saw a modest uptick in the share of young men who are single and identified as conservatives. there are a lot of issues that are dividing americans now. that makes it harder for people who are republican to go with a democratic family members. >> political tension was not

something she expected to face with her husband. >> the day after the election in 2016, my husband was working in italy. i called him because i have never been political. i am an anti-news, artsy gal. i called him and said hillary lost and i was absolutely in tears. he said of course, she should have. i said here we go. that was the beginning of realizing that his beliefs were different than mine. >> in an effort to find support after the election, she started a private facebook group, wives of the deplorable's, a tongue-in-cheek name drawing on a comment by hillary clinton. a handful of the group members spoke to us but did not want to use their last names. >> i think politics were not discussed as intensely. before the 2016 election. i knew he was a republican and i was a democrat. i have no idea that these were some of the beliefs he had. that is very hard to stomach. >> most of these mixed political

marriages have survived. some ended in divorce. the 2016 election was a turning point for the mall. >> i needed other women to talk to who were in similar situations to help walk me through it, figure out strategies, get to common ground again. >> if you look at the group, you will hear a lot of pain that women are struggling to be able to maintain the relationships. in some cases, they are not able to continue. this is the way of the world right now. with friends, relatives. polar opposites, different silos , not able to listen to each other. >> these political tensions are

not just with married couples. he says many young americans are choosing to only date people with their same political views. a recent survey found 81% good prefer not to date across the aisle when it comes to serious relationships. >> there is another supply of liberal men for liberal women. and in undersupplied liberal -- conservative women for the conservative men. we are seeing a large minority of folks having difficulty finding someone who fits their worldview. >> their daughter is one of those young people. >> i think it is really a case-by-case basis. >> there not issues that if you say somebody has a different

view from the on this, that would not matter? >> absolutely. reproductive rights, lgbtq plus rights, immigrant rights, really if black lives matter, that is important. >> i think conservatives deftly need to stick together. >> a political advisor who served in the trump administration created a dating app for conservatives called the right stuff. >> we are sorry you have wasted your time with people who do not see the world our way. >> we took it to an investor and he loved the idea. that was a couple of years ago. we are off and running. >> you think it is good for all of us in the long run? ? to be separated this way >> if you match up in this day and age and you do not agree with some of the main values, it is going to end poorly and may in disaster. >> he says in the past, mixing

politics and relationships has been beneficial to society. >> marriage has tended to bridge the sexual divide. bringing men and women together on a number of different fronts. there were many marriages back in the day when you had a democrat and a republican getting married. moderating their approach to life in general. today, because of this more polarized context, people are tending to marry along similar lines. >> the context is greater than they cannot find a date for saturday night? >> there is life, liberty, and the pursuit of happiness. but people don't realize is that happiness in our love lives is not just for ourselves or for our kids but for the wider country. >> even when there are profound disagreements in those connections, some couples have figured out how to turn the focus to what brought them together in the first place. >> we used to scream at each other outside in the hot tub.

literally. where we live, everybody can hear you. we just this last couple of months were like, this is a politics free zone. >> humor has saved us now. we can get to a disagreement in less than a minute. we kinda of make the other person crack up. >> others acknowledge that repairing fractured relationships will take time. >> it took us seven or eight years to get past all of this anger. it will take us a while to get back to where we were. hopefully improve our relationship and therefore it. but it will take time. >> their secret for happiness across the divide is focusing on what they have in common. >> i firmly believe legitimately

everybody wants wants best. if you come from that position, i just disagree with the path that she seeks. that is it. politics is a big part but so are the kids and everything else. the things we like about each other. that is more than who i voted for. >> if we can figure out a way we can all still love each other despite the differences, i think that is important. a™ >> remember, there is much more online. >> we will have much more coming soon from the u.s.-mexico border , including a closer look at how u.s. authorities are dealing with challenges. that is it for tonight. >> thank you for joining us and have a great evening. >> major funding has been provided by -- >> actually, you do not need vision to do most things in life. yes, i am legally blind, and yes, i am responsible for the user interface. >> remember, there is much more online. >> we will have much more coming soon from the u.s.-mexico border , including a closer look at how
