of california democrat diane feinstein. she's died at the age of 90. plus, a co—defendendant of donald trump's pleads guilty in an election interference case in georgia. hello, i'm caitriona perry. the us house of representatives has adjourned for the evening here in washington, without a deal on averting a government shutdown. they will reconvene on saturday morning as a deadline looms to find a path forward on spending. earlier on friday, the house rejected a short—term funding measure on friday with 21 republicans joining house democrats to vote no, increasing the likelihood of a shutdown. that stopgap measure could have kept the government funded for several weeks while congress worked on long—term spending plans.

the republicans, who hold a slim majority in the house of representatives, are at a deadlock, with members on the right of the party demanding wide—ranging spending cuts. one of that group's main objections has been the white house's request for an additional $24 billion in aid to ukraine. tonight, mr mccarthy urged the senate to drop that measure from its resolution. i think if we had a clean one without ukraine on it, we could probably be able to move that through. i think if the senate puts ukraine on there and focuses ukraine over america, i think that could cause real problems. megan scully is bloomberg congress editor and she joined me in the last hour. what is your initial reaction to this news from speaker mccarthy? that if ukraine was removed, a deal might be on the table. this is one of many ideas that are percolating this evening. the closer we get to the deadline, the more ideas

seem to be giving birth by both sides. this latest offer, not even quite an offer proposal, something floated to republicans during a meeting of republicans that was closed door and spanned about two hours. there are hard—line republicans that will not vote for any continuing resolution at all. and there are democrats who could not be on board with a bill that would not fund ukraine. this becomes a big problem particularly in the senate where support for ukraine funding is quite high. even if mccarthy was able to get this through the house, it is not the final deal looking at. before we go much further, let's look now at what a shutdown would really mean. firstly, hundreds of thousands of workers would be furloughed and without pay. various federal services

and programs would also be impacted. this includes the federal workforce of 2.2 million who would either be working with pay, working but without pay or not working and not being paid. the 1.3 million active—duty servicemembers who would continue to work but would not get a paycheck. access to food would also be at risk for over 41 million people through the snap food assistance program. and more than 420 national parks across the country will be off limits to the public starting monday. congressmanjuan ciscomani is a republican from arizona and hejoined me earlier. thanks forjoining us. we heard a few moments ago those remarks from speaker mccarthy who said if funding for ukraine was pulled from the continuing resolution from a temporary deal that perhaps that would make a difference. do you think it would? at this point, we are in a time crunch. everything makes a difference at this point. this has been a successful week.

thanks for having me on. glad to spend some time with you and explain what is happening. i am in the appropriations committee, i have been heavily involved with this process from the beginning and also a freshman, i am in my ninth month in office and it is quite the experience. this week we have seen more progress than we saw in the last month for sure. we were able to get 3 more appropriation bills passed out of the house, we are now up to four bills. within these four bills, it represents over 70% of spending the appropriations committee is responsible for. 0k, sorry, tojump in there. you might have made progress but nevertheless we find ourselves in a position where there still is no deal and about a day away from a government shutdown. that is right. as i was saying, we made the progress we were meant to do this week. the continuing resolution, the temporary funding solution we put at the table earlier today unfortunately

did not pass. i voted for it. i don't love everything in it but we need to keep the government funded and avoid a shutdown. that is my priority. i will continue... can that happen in the next day? to be able to get something done. we did adjourn in terms of voting but meetings are happening and we have met, 32 republicans and democrats that we need to find common ground solutions. we are still working on this, we're not giving up on it. are you hopeful then? i am optimistic. there is no telling what will happen here in terms of every step in the next 2a hours. what i can tell you is there are others like me with the same focus of saying we have to do everything we can to avoid a shutdown. nobody wins in a shutdown and it is my message from the beginning and i will

work with whoever we need to work with in order to avoid that. you talk about doing everything you can to avoid a shutdown, some members of your party has said that should have meant being in town last weekend, being in town maybe in august as well to start the negotiations earlier. that falls back on the plate of speaker kevin mccarthy. what sort ofjob do you think he has done? he has done all that he can with what we have on the table. he has gotten us to this point, we passed good legislation throughout the entire year. we had a setback today, no question about it. i don't think anyone preferred the road we are on right now with the timeline we have but i have to tell you, i agree, we have to stay, we have a calendar of what we have coming up, to be back meeting with constituents. as important as that is, we need to stay here and get thejob done. we're going to work over the weekend and over the next two weeks to get it done. this is the number i focus we have in congress.

speaking back to going back to your district, you are a congressman from arizona. the issue of what we call agencies is a big one for you. those folks are going to have to come to work without any pay if the government's shutdown. what do you say to them? that is a tragedy. exactly why inviting every single day to avoid that happening. these men and women are facing the worst crisis we have seen in our southern border ever with the highest numbers, they already feel unprotected and under—represented by this administration with the biden team and now they're being told they're not going to get paid and have to go home and tell spouses they won't have a paycheck and cannot pay their mortgage. that is not the position we want to put our agents in. that is one of the number one reasons i am fighting so hard against this shutdown. worst time for a shutdown, never a good time but with this border crisis, in my home district is suffering, it is even worse over time. are you frustrated with your party colleagues, the member of the freedom caucus

and a couple others who just seem to be putting up barriers to getting a deal done? i am frustrated with washington overall. i am an outsider, this is my ninth month in thejob, i learned a lot of things don't go well because people are unwilling to find consensus and they have this attitude of it is my way or the highway. it is not how you do things, although republicans won the house and proud of being a part of that by flipping the district, we control one third of government. we have to work with this in and work with the white house and get something passed. we have the power of the purse, want to advance our most conservative priorities and that is what we have done with the appropriation bills. that is the frustrating part, we put in all this work to pass good conservative bills out of the appropriations process but for some, not enough. not only is it not enough, disagreeing is not the problem is how you disagree and go about it. that really puts us in a bad

position and we have not been able to find unity within the republican side. that is the problem and pretty frustrating. how are you going to go about agreeing in the next few hours? all you folks locked up in that room on capitol hill? the fact that it is hard does not mean it is impossible. we have to continue to work on this. again, we're all on the same team and have to find some solution here. i do have to believe and also going to be a glass half full kind of guy that we're going to a solution here. we're going to work with whoever we need to work with in order to avoid a shutdown. anyone that wants to work towards avoiding a shutdown, i will work with them to make sure that happens. thank you so much forjoining us. you get back to broker of trying to find a consensus there on capitol hill. amid the possibility of a shutdown here in washington, we also got news on friday that the longest serving female senator in us history, dianne feinstein, has passed away.

she died overnight at the age of 90 after casting her last vote in congress on thursday. i spoke about her legacy and the shutdown with senator chris coons of delaware. thanks forjoining us and our condolences on the loss of your friend and colleague. we appreciate you talking under the circumstances. you went back quite a number of years. you mind telling us what you remember from that meeting? . you mind telling us what you rememberfrom that meeting? . i was a young man in my early 20s. working and living in new york city and a friend working on the campaign told me there still elected senator from california that i had heard about was coming to new york and would i mind driving into the airport and picking up and bring you into the city for the event. i happened to have a car at the time. i was told do not expect senator to speak to you.

she has work to do. i was happy to pick up at the airport and she insisted on sitting in the front seat and chanting the entire way. it was warm and engaging. very exciting and very thoughtful about the conditions of people in new york city and the city where she lived in san francisco. it had a real impact. i was able to ask her questions about what it was like to become mayor under such difficult circumstances. her predecessor was assassinated. and what it was assassinated. and what it was like to bejoining was assassinated. and what it was like to be joining the united states senate and why she did the job she united states senate and why she did thejob she did. and why she was so committed to public service. many years later ijoined her here in the senate as a colleague and i told you that story and it order had been so looking a chance to serve with her. she was an incredible colleague in the senate. we served of the judiciary and progresses committees together. she was always well prepared and

thoughtful, fierce, determined, capable, elegant, gracious, memorable.— capable, elegant, gracious, memorable. ., ., , ., memorable. you mentioned you served together _ memorable. you mentioned you served together in _ memorable. you mentioned you served together in the _ memorable. you mentioned you served together in the senate i served together in the senate judiciary committee. what do you see is her legacy in that field? ,, ., , you see is her legacy in that field? ,, ., ., field? she was someone who was at the forefront _ field? she was someone who was at the forefront of _ field? she was someone who was at the forefront of fighting - at the forefront of fighting for gun safety in the united states. partly because of the tragedy of san francisco and the impact of gun violence across many communities in the country. she led the assault weapons ban legislation in 1994 when she was just in her first term for the nobody thought it was possible and with her determined and capable leadership it became law for a few years and she was persistent even this year and trying to pass it again. after it had expired. gun safety was a key piece of her legacy. so too was protecting america's women against violence. she

along with dan senatorjoe biden helped write and pass the violence against women act which has been reauthorised many times and laid the foundation for modern efforts across our country to prevent and respond appropriately to ballistic —— domestic violence. she was the first female chair of the committee, first e—mail, many firsts in this country. president biden said today it was one of her legacy is that she had notjust broken down doors for women, she held the doors for women, she held the door open for women coming behind as well. was that something she was very conscious of doing? yes. she was very _ conscious of doing? yes. she was very conscious _ conscious of doing? yes. she was very conscious of - conscious of doing? yes. she was very conscious of her - conscious of doing? yes. she l was very conscious of her place in the senate, in american history and in particular as a trailblazer. she and senator mikulski were leaders in the senate, committee chairs when i got here and they and barbara boxer were elected in 1982

along with senator patty murray and they were part of an important vanguard of leadership among the seasoned senior women's senators in the senate. senator murray is today the president and chair of the appropriations committee and carrying for the appropriate legacy. i know what i have heard from other colleagues, morejuniorfemale that heard from other colleagues, more junior female that she was a wonderful mental, —— mental oran a wonderful mental, —— mental or an attentive to the issues women face when tending to family concerns and professional concerns in the public eye in the senate. i was talking with a few colleagues about that on the floor earlier today. she was an incredible senator and also a very good kind and warm person and terrific colleague.- terrific colleague. you mentioned _ terrific colleague. you mentioned a - terrific colleague. you mentioned a little - terrific colleague. you i mentioned a little earlier terrific colleague. you - mentioned a little earlier she was a retail politician, she was a retail politician, she was very conscious of the impact the work senators and promised people to enter the impact that has on real people and their real lives. when we look at what is going on around

you on capitol hill this weekend and the impending, it looks like shutdown of the government, as her spirit been on it there at all? will any kind of deal be reached or can anything be done? it can be done easily if one of the republican senators here who blocks our proceedings would relent, we could then pass the continuing resolution here in the senate that has bipartisan risk that make support this afternoon. risk that make support this afternoon-— risk that make support this afternoon. , . , ., ., afternoon. instead the senator is blocking _ afternoon. instead the senator is blocking our— afternoon. instead the senator is blocking our proceeding - afternoon. instead the senator is blocking our proceeding any| is blocking our proceeding any sooner than the absolute maximum amount of time. that our rules require. in the senate we do with unanimous consent but you can't do anything without unanimous consent. in the house there is a small and determined group of to dozen very extreme republican house members who have just succeeded in defeating their effort at passing a continuing

resolution. so i hope that the spirit of cenotaph einstein encourages these folks to recognise the very real human costs for millions of federal employees for them and their families, the men and women of law enforcement, armed forces, border patrol who will be serving without pay this weekend if we go all the way through with the shutdown. this will impact our stuff here in congress and hundreds and hundreds of thousands of other civilian workers all over the country. if you care about environmental safety, cancer research, food inspections, if you care about air traffic control and air traffic safety, all of these are roles where federal workers play a central and key facilitating role in the government shutdown harms them and their safety and our security as a nation and i know the senator, where she still with us today, would be working with us today, would be working with great determination to try and craft a compromise. she cast her last vote yesterday

and i think it is a tribute to the fact that she was so determined to keep serving the people of california that she did so for more than 30 years. and on that note we will leave it. thank you so much for joining us. former president donald trump plans to attend at least the first day of his upcoming civil trial in new york. that's according to sources, speaking to our us media partner cbs news. mrtrump and three of his adult children are expected to be called as witnesses in the case, which begins on monday. new york attorney general letitia james has accused them — and the trump 0rganization — of illegally inflating the value of their properties to obtain more favourable loans from banks. meanwhile, one of the 18 co—defendants in mr trump's georgia election interference case pleaded guilty to multiple criminal charges on friday. scott hall, a bail bondsman, pleaded guilty to five misdemeanor counts in the 2020 election subversion case in georgia. he will serve five years

of probation, pay a fine and write a letter of apology to georgia voters. the other co—defendents in the case have pleaded not guilty. sarah krissoff is a former federal prosecutor for the southern district of new york, and shejoined me a short time ago. he pleaded guilty to five misdemeanour charges under a deal with the prosecution he faced a charge of racketeering and six other penalty that black felonies. what is the difference? —— six other felonies. it difference? -- six other felonies.— difference? -- six other felonies. it looks like the district attorney's - felonies. it looks like the district attorney's office i felonies. it looks like the | district attorney's office is gearing up for the trial in october against the two lawyers 0ctober against the two lawyers who are standing for trial at the end of october, i think the 23rd and they are figuring out what they will do in that trial. what the case they will put on is and i think this is ourfirst indication of put on is and i think this is our first indication of who the witnesses may be. mr hall looks like he may be a witness in that case.

like he may be a witness in that case-— like he may be a witness in that case. . ., , , that case. he agreed to testify a . ainst that case. he agreed to testify against other _ that case. he agreed to testify against other defendants - that case. he agreed to testify against other defendants we i against other defendants we don't know which ones. how will that strengthen the case for the da by having a co—defendant telling tales, giving evidence on the others involved? it is an important _ on the others involved? it is an important part _ on the others involved? it is an important part of - on the others involved? it 3 an important part of most cases that have witnesses who were part of the conspiracy, part of the crime, testifying against the crime, testifying against the people on trial so this will certainly help to strengthen the case by the da office and i expect more defendant to follow in his footsteps in this case and in the others against the former president. fin the others against the former president-— president. on that exact note when other— president. on that exact note when other codefendants - president. on that exact note | when other codefendants have seen what has happened here, the type of deal that he got in general does that encourage others to do the same? i think it does. frankly, _ others to do the same? i think it does. frankly, many - others to do the same? i think it does. frankly, many of - others to do the same? i think it does. frankly, many of his l it does. frankly, many of his allies have held strong thus far and they have not been cooperating. but with mr hall

going first here and breaking ground i expect others to follow, particularly when they see the benefit to them, they see the benefit to them, they see that mr hall will not go to prison, he is facing probation and define and a letter of apology and seeing that as an option on the table will likely influence of the defendants. for those viewers who are not familiar with us charges, what is the difference between six felony charges which is what he was originally facing and the five misdemeanours he has pled guilty to? charges against him were very serious and carried significantjail time, finds significant jail time, finds and repercussions. significantjail time, finds and repercussions. these are much less serious charges which seem to be an exchange risk testimony, he is allowed to

plead due to these lesser charges, the misdemeanour charges, the misdemeanour charges which is a lower—level charges which is a lower—level charge in the us system. usually punishable by under one yearin usually punishable by under one year in prison in exchange risk testimony. we year in prison in exchange risk testimony-— year in prison in exchange risk testimony. we do not know the exact details — testimony. we do not know the exact details here _ testimony. we do not know the exact details here but - testimony. we do not know the exact details here but in - exact details here but in general if the prosecutor is going to downgrade charges so significantly, like that, does that mean they put a value on the evidence that that person can provide?— the evidence that that person can provide? each prosecutor's office handles _ can provide? each prosecutor's office handles that _ office handles that differently. in exchange for the testimony from folks each office, each us attorney offers across the country handles that across the country handles that a little differently. what benefit does the benefit yet for an exchange for testimony? here i think the georgia district attorney has signalled to all of the other 17 or 18 defendants in the case what benefit they could get if they

choose to do the same path. [30 choose to do the same path. do ou choose to do the same path. do you think this may give pause for concern to some of the other codefendants? certainly those who _ other codefendants? certainly those who are _ other codefendants? certainly those who are heading - other codefendants? certainly those who are heading to - other codefendants? certainly | those who are heading to trial, ms powell and others heading to trial on october 23, they see the case against them strengthen each day as we approach trial so that may put the pressure on them to make a similar decision like that of mr hall. �* , ., ,, mr hall. and perhaps within the advisors on _ mr hall. and perhaps within the advisors on the _ mr hall. and perhaps within the advisors on the team _ mr hall. and perhaps within the advisors on the team around . mr hall. and perhaps within the | advisors on the team around the former president himself, donald trump was to mark perhaps. donald trump was to mark perhaps-— donald trump was to mark erha s. , . , perhaps. they have the benefit of seeinu perhaps. they have the benefit of seeing this _ perhaps. they have the benefit of seeing this trial, _ perhaps. they have the benefit of seeing this trial, this - of seeing this trial, this first trial against the lawyers go first so they will have opportunity to see the evidence presented by the state, evaluated and make a judgement call on how they should go forward. i think the former

president is unlikely to resolve any of these cases short of trial. he appears to be bent on persevering until the end of these matters. thank ou ve the end of these matters. thank you very much — the end of these matters. thank you very much for _ the end of these matters. thank you very much for your- you very much for your insights. officials in the us state of nevada have charged a former gang leader in the murder of tupac shakur. the rap icon was gunned down in a drive—by shooting in las vegas in 1996. barbara plett usher has the details. tupac shakur is still one of the bestselling and most influential rappers of all time. he took off after the release of his debut album in 1991. just five years, later he was gunned down, his career cut short — shot on the las vegas strip while waiting at a red light. hit by bullets fired from a passing cadillac, he died six days later. now, after 27 years, police have finally arrested a suspect. 27 years... 27 years.

for 27 years, the family of tupac shakur have been waiting for justice. we are here today to announce the arrest of 60—year—old duane keith davis, aka keefe d, for the murder of tupac shakur. keefe d was the leader of a gang that was feuding with tupac�*s record label, death row records. police said the whole thing started with this fight at a las vegas hotel. tupac and record executive suge knight punched and kicked a rival gang member. keefe d is accused of then hatching a plan to retaliate. put your hands up. sir, put your phone down. fast forward to july this year, police raided keefe d's home in a los angeles suburb. he's the man on the right. the case had been revived in recent years using his own words about the incident published in a memoir. tupac�*s musical legacy was honoured at the hollywood walk of fame earlier this year. the questions surrounding his death

have also gripped his fans. they may soon get their answers. barbara plett usher, bbc news, washington. and before we go, officials in new york have declared a state of emergency after heavy rainfall caused flooding in the streets. subways were flooded and highways became rivers after five inches — or more than ten centimetres — of water fell in just hours. officials warned new yorkers to avoid all non—essential travel as most subway services are suspended, and airports faced major delays. drivers were forced to abandon their cars on some streets. brooklyn is said to be the hardest—hit area of the city. that's all for now, i'm caitriona perry. stay with us here on bbc news. hello. we may be officially into autumn, but a little dose of summer on the way for some of us over the next few days, notjust here in the uk,

but widely across europe. and in fact, temperatures are expected to reach the 30s in spain, france, in the uk, even mid—20s expected in the south in the days ahead. now, at the moment, there is a little weather front heading our way — that is going to bring a bit of a mixed bag for some of us. now, the early hours will be clear, generally speaking, across most of the country, and it will be quite a nippy morning. in fact, in the glens of scotland, it could be around four degrees, but i think for most of us, in the range of around 7—10 celsius. so, it starts off quite sunny and bright at the very least for most of us. but out towards the west, this rain crosses ireland and you can see thickening cloud there from the southwest across wales, the irish sea, northern ireland and into southwestern scotland. so here, a very different picture to other parts of the country. outbreaks of rain, at times heavy in belfast, and also gusty winds around coasts. the north of scotland, most of the north sea coast and further south the weather's looking fine, sunny. i think sunshine for plymouth, for the isle of wight

and also for london, where highs will reach 20 celsius. now, notice that rain never reaches the south. it veers off towards the north, and with that also comes relatively humid air to the south of that weather front, and that humid and also quite warm air will spread across many parts of the country. that means that early in the morning, on sunday, it will be very warm. look at that — 16—17 degrees celsius at eight o'clock in the south. now, there will be a little bit of rain around in the morning, i think across parts of wales and the midlands. but eventually, the sun should come out in most areas, and we're talking about the mid—20s in the southeast on sunday. a little bit fresher in scotland and northern ireland here of around 16 or 17 celsius. now, the outlook for the rest of europe shows a large area of high pressure building across the continent. that's basically going to allow the warm air to spread all the way to eastern parts of europe. there'll be a bit of a blip because this weather front will introduce temporarily some

slightly fresher air to some parts of europe. but i think overall, it's going to stay on the warm side. let's have a look at a snapshot, then, for some of our cities into the week ahead, and generally speaking, really quite warm.

hey, i'mjulia

with the catch up. a 14—year—old girl and a coach driver have died after their school bus overturned on the m53 in merseyside. police say that 58 people were involved. a 14—year—old boy also suffered life—changing injuries. pupils at the schools are getting special support. some other stories now from sunday. a new law will ban shops and takeaways from selling single—use plastic like cutlery and polystyrene cups. the thing is, some businesses are saying they have no idea about the ban, and haven't prepared at all. facing financial stress, more than half of uni students are balancing their studies with paid jobs. the higher education policy institute, which did the research, is worried it makes inequalities between students worse. people born using sperm or egg donors in the uk who turn 18 after sunday will now be able

to find out who their donor is, because of a law from 2005.
