passenger at the front of the plane and they did that and then they diverted to oklahoma city, air traffic control telling other planes in the air that they had an inbound emergency. the bottom line we've seen according to the faa nearly 3,000 reports of unruly or bad behavior since the start of the year, just an unprecedented surge in bad behavior according to the faa. some people are being fined 10,000, 17,000, $20,000 and more and banned for life by the airlines for behaving badly. you can also be put in jail. the faa says a big reason for this is because people are simply upset about and don't want to wear the masks. the masks are still required on board planes and in airports, why? because half the population isn't vaccinated, including children under the age of 12, so the faa trying to protect all of those passengers and some people simply don't want to supply. the faa says if anybody

continues to behave in this fashion, they will be prosecuted and as you know, we already have one southwest airlines flight attendant lose two teeth punched out on board a plane. guys back to you in the bay area. leaders in europe aren't being shy about t they're relieved joe biden is president. >> scott mcgrew, they're praising the president. >> they are praising him effusiveely, good morning. their message is fairly obvious. the message is obvious, everybody gets what they're saying. president biden meeting with ian soltenberg. he says he knows biden has a rock solid commitment to our allies and they can count on america. in the g7 meeting in england the conservative british prime minister called biden a "breath of fresh air" and the french president macron said "america

is back." biden for his part reiterated that the free and democratic countries of the world will protect freedom and democracy. >> and i think how we act and whether we pull together as democracies is going to determine whether our grandkids look like 15 years from now and say did they step up? are democracies as relevant and powerful as they have? and i walked away from the meeting with all my colleagues believing they are convinced that is correct now, too. >> in washington, meanwhile, concern and a bit of confusion as some leaders discovered they may have been subject of a secret justice department subpoena of their apple icloud and iphone accounts, spouses, too, and in some cases minor children. the latest to find out he was part of an investigation is former white house council don mb began, this is cording to the "new york times" which relied on a single source. nobody knows why the justice department wanted his apple information, whether maybe the doj is investigating him or

maybe someone associated with him, other subjects of subpoenas include democratic members of the senate intelligence community. this happened while president trump was president, which means his two former attorneys general, jeff sessions and bill barr, may know something about it, depending on what happened. it's highly irregular for the doj to order a secret subpoena against a senator and highly likely the two of them will have to explain it to the american public. >> they must testify. sessions and bar must testify under oath as part of a formal congressional investigation. >> we'll be talking about that and certainly monitoring the nato meeting as well. you can follow me on facebook and twitter,@scottmcgrew. the red hot housing market squeezing out middle class home buyers trying to make it in the bay.
