7:02 am
>> good morning, america. great to have you with us on a saturday. janai is off this morning but great to have will reeve here back on the desk. >> great to be here. >> great to see you, as well. we have a lot to cover. we begin with the subpoena from the january 6th committee, ordering donald trump to testify under oath and provide documents. >> the former president's legal team reacting overnight to the historic move. >> abc white house correspondent maryalice parks, with the latest on the legal battle brewing. >> reporter: the january 6th committee voted unanimously to take this extraordinary step and now, they have done it. they wrote that the former president oversaw an effort to overturn the 2020 election. and now, he needs to answer for that. this morning, former president trump waking up under deadline. now, formally subpoenaed by the
7:03 am
january 6th congressional committee. >> to subpoena a former president is a serious and extraordinary action. >> reporter: the committee demanding trump turn over his text messages and call records from january 6th. as well as conversations with lawmakers about the election results and any communications relating to militias, like the proud boys and oath keepers who stormed the capitol. the subpoena requiring trump to testify under oath by november 14th. >> we are obligated to seek answers from the man who set this all in motion. >> reporter: the co-chairs writing in their letter to the former president, you were at the center of the first and only effort by a u.s. president to overturn an election and obstruct the peaceful transition of power, ultimately culminating in a bloody attack on the capitol and on the congress itself. the subpoena comes as the committee concludes nine public hearings, carefully building a case, alleging that trump knew he lost the election and
7:04 am
repeated lies about it anyway. >> said something to the effect of, i don't want people to know we lost, mark. this is embarrassing. figure it out. we need to figure it out. >> reporter: and claiming on january 6th, as commander in chief, he took no action for hours to stop the attack as congressional leaders hid for their safety. though many experts agree it's unlikely that trump will sit for questions, the subpoena setting up a prolonged legal fight. >> assuming that he will fulfill his legal obligation and honor the subpoena. if that doesn't happen, then we'll take the steps we need to take after that. >> reporter: trump's attorneys offering an initial response, saying they will respond as appropriate to this unprecedented action. on the same day that trump was subpoenaed, his long-time adviser, steve bannon, was sentenced to four months in prison for stonewalling congress, something he says he
7:05 am
will appeal. whit? >> maryalice parks, thank you so much. let's bring in kate shaw. good to see you in the studio on a saturday. let's talk about the next steps for the president, given his legal options. how likely is it that we will see him testify? >> i would say it's unlikely but not impossible. we know that former president trump loves an audience, right? and the january 6th committee has been, you know, well-rated. people have really tuned in. i'm sure he will be tempted to actually respond to the subpoena by agreeing to appear and testify publicly. but at the end of the day, i think the legal risk for him is too great. if he is listening to the advice of his lawyers, he won't, at the end of the day, agree to show up and testify. testifying opens up the possibility of perjury charges. and he is facing serious investigations, one out of the mar-a-lago classified documents. i don't think at the end of the day it happens. he may keep us in suspense about it. >> he likely will. what happens to this subpoena if republicans win the house in november? >> if republicans win the house, the turnover won't happen until january. we still have that lame duck period of november and december. and it is possible that the house will vote to hold former president trump in contempt of congress.
7:06 am
if he does defy the subpoena and make a referral to the department of justice for the prosecution. that's what we saw with steve bannon who was sentenced this week, for defying a january 6th subpoena. if -- it's in doj's hands if they're going to go forward with the prosecution. if the house after january tries to withdraw the subpoena, it's anyone's guess what happens next. i don't think turnover in the house necessarily means the end of the story of this subpoena. >> we've heard donald trump and his supporters ask why the select committee took so long to make this official request. did this wait hurt or help the committee in the long run? >> you know, look. if they were trying to get information and testimony from former president trump, it would have been better to move faster. a couple of weeks before this important midterm election is probably too late to get the information they are looking for. but i think they wanted to make sure they had laid the groundwork and coldn't get the information they needed anywhere else. and now, they really think they
7:07 am
need to hear directly or to try for the sake of history, to hear from the former president directly. i think they think it is worth it, but the odds are long of actually getting that testimony and those documents. >> something to watch, see how the process plays out. kate shaw, we appreciate it. will, over to you. a federal appeals court granted the request from attorneys general of six republican-led states to put a hold on the biden administration student loan forgiveness plan. that plan now in limbo, just days after people began applying for loan forgiveness. karen travers joins us with details. good morning. >> reporter: good morning. this is a blow to a key policy that president biden is campaigning on ahead of midterm elections. 22 million americans have applied for this relief program and it's been open for a week. now, it's not clear what the order means for the borrowers. the white house is encouraging people to apply under this program.
7:08 am
white house press secretary karine jean-pierre said in a statement, this order does not prevent the education department from reviewing applications. but unknown is whether the several legal challenges against the president's loan forgiveness program will be resolved by january 1st. that's when payments have to restart, after a nearly three-year pause due to the covid pandemic. that's leading to uncertainty for people with federal student loan debt. the president's plan would cancel up to $10,000 for individuals making less than $125,000 a year or as much as $20,000 for eligible borrowers who were also pell grant recipients. the biden administration now has until monday evening to file an appeal. and they say they're going to fight this. press secretary karine jean-pierre said they will fight the republicans trying to block the efforts for student loan relief.

7:12 am
but in the final stretch, it has gotten tighter. voters will have to decide between the democratic incumbent who was focused in on abortion rights and her republican challenger, the former attorney general. he has zeroed in on the economy. our friends at 538 have crunched the numbers. and this race is a dead heat. one thing is clear, with the senate split 50/50, republicans have to net one seat to flip the senate. if they win here in nevada, the odds of doing it go up significantly. democrats are facing some political headwinds here. inflation is soaring. president biden's approval ratings are low. and they are calling in heavyweights. former president barack obama will be in the state right before election day to rally voters, a sign of just how high the stakes are. eva? >> rachel scott for us. it goes down to who turns out to vote for election day. thanks for that. and a closer look at the challenges as americans cast their votes in the midterms.

more so than in previous years. you know, the infectious disease environment for children has been really walked a bit by covid, where you have disassociation of contact with people, wearing masks and being protected. as people pull back, no longer wear masks and congregate together, you get a surge of infections that might have been spread out over a period of time. we're seeing a concentration of them now. this is particularly problematic because as we get into the flu season, you might have a convergence of respiratory diseases. rsv and we're concerned in the winter of a surge of a new variant of covid-19. it's particularly difficult, at this particular time, as we
