and heavy secret service presence. >> mr. trump will be met by a member of the district attorney's office and informed he is under arrest pursuant to the indictment. this is an indictment that remains sealed at this hour. nbc news is now reporting that trump is facing roughly 30 counts related to document fraud. >> he will then be processed under standard procedure that includes fingerprinting. it is unknown if there will be a mug shot taken. >> from there he heads to the courtroom on the 15th floor where at 2:15 this afternoon the arraignment is set to begin. could last between 15 to 20 minutes. cameras will not be allowed in court for that proceeding. >> after all that, the former president will leave new york, go back to his home in florida where he is scheduled to give a post-arraignment speech later tonight. we have it all covered for you from the legal to political fall-out to the security and protest concerns. we will start with garrett haake, who is just outside the

courtroom this morning. good morning. >> reporter: hoda, good morning. the moment donald trump walks into the courthouse doors behind me this morning, he will make history. the first-ever current or former president to face criminal charges. all while he is running for the white house for a third time. while his legal fate may end up in the hands of a new york jury, his political future is in the hands of republican voters and they have shown no sign of abandoning him. today at this new york city courthouse, a turning point in american history. in a matter of hours, donald trump is expected to surrender to authorities who will place him under arrest and process him before the 45th president enters a courtroom to face a new york state judge. mr. trump's attorneys say he will plead not guilty to the charges against him, facing some 30 document fraud related fraud counts, according to two sources familiar with the indictment to be unsealed today. the manhattan da's investigation centered around 2016 hush money

payments made by former trump fixer michael cohen to stormy daniels to buy her silence about an alleged affair with mr. trump, which he denies cohen, the prosecution star witness, calls attacks on hi credibility irrelevant >> i'm not asking people to believe what i'm saying. look at the evidence look at the documents that will be presented. >> reporter: the former president left palm beach monday, returning to new york, his plane landing at laguardia airport. escorted by nypd and secret service to trump tower where he waved to gathered supporters with robust security around the courthouse, the new york mayor's message to potential protesters. >> control yourselves. new york city is our home, not a playground for your misplaced anger. >> reporter: president biden weighing in on the city's security but not on the case specifics. >> no, i have faith in the new york police department.

>> reporter: on social media, mr. trump without evidence has lashed out at the judge as trump hating, while blasting the democratic d.a. as corrupt and his case as election interference overnight the judge ruling i mr. trump's favor, agreeing to keep television cameras out of today's hearing, but allowing them to set up in a hallway outside the courtroom. a group of still photographers will be allowed to take photos proceedings begin. with his legal fate out of his control, mr. trump and his advisers are trying to use the indictment to boost his prospects for 2024 he is expected to return to florida later today, delivering a defiant prime time address to supporters from his mar-a-lago estate since the indictment the trump campaign says it has raised more than $7 million since his indictment you are looking down the alley now between the d.a.'s office and the courthouse

just part of the security footprint downtown you can see the alley where mr. trump is expected later today, completely closed off. a block and a half the other direction every square foot of sidewalk is taken up by reporters, which stretches around the building behind us. what we don't see here this morning are protesters none have arrived so far but with a pro-trump rally scheduled for later this morning, that is expected to change. savannah >> thank you we are joined by hallie jackson and laura jarrett. ladies, good morning it will be history today for donald trump we are still waiting for this indictment until we see the indictmen honestly no one knows anything can we agree on that >> yes, absolutely we know there are at least more than 30 counts, but we don't know the exact parameters of those accounts we believe it has to do with the falsification of business records. remember, the paying of the hush money is not illegal under state law. what we believe they're after is how that got documented on the books of the trump organization.

something you talked about at length with the president's lawyers. we need to understand their theory for how you elevate what is normally a misdemeanor to a felony that part we don't know yet. >> when we talk about the legal theory, that's what we're talking about. how do you convert a business records misdemeanor to a more serious crime? there is also the question of whether this surrounds only this issue of so-called hush money with stormy daniels or if there is other conduct revealed in an indictment. >> right we know the grand jury has heard testimony about another payment to another woman michael cohen didn't make that payment. that came from the "national enquirer." but we don't know yet is that going to be there to show a course of conduct or is it an actual charge? again, we have to seen the actual papers. >> don't tell that to the people that - >> and i'm smiling, but it's true it is like everyone is weighing in as though we know the strength of this case we don't yet know the strength of this case, good, bad or indifferent.

>> what is so interesting to me is when i talk with thes republicans, so many of them give covers to mr. trump even though that detail is still tbd. short-term gain for donald trump, that is what we're seeing in the polling numbers that's what we see when he talks about in his view being politically persecuted this is helping him, clearly, with his base. we will see him go down. if you lay it out, we will see him go down lower manhattan. we will see him appear in court at least briefly in the hole, at least for a couple of seconds. this is unprecedented. he will use that to motivate his base you know what? he needs more than his base to succeed in a general election. so far, nobody has come after him on this. give it six months and let's see if his republican rivals give him that cover. >> lindsey graham said this all but seals the nominations for him. no -- his republican rivals, people in the race against him -- >> mike pence, ron desantis. >> nikki haley did not lay a

glove on him he thinks that donald trump should drop out based on the indictment that separates him from most of the republican field. >> it does but asa hutchinson is not seen as someone who is a front runner for the republicans at this moment lindsey graham said this unites the gop in a way he did not expect this year because of so many people coming around donald trump on this issue. let's see about the other investigations against donald trump. my sense from talking to republicans is it is not likely to i think the pressure of a campaign closer to election day, as we get closer and closer to election day, donald trump needs people beyond his base to win, let's see how that plays. >> might take away a lot politically and legally. but today will provide some answers. thank you both and nbc news will bring you live coverage on many of these stations and it will be streaming on nbc news now. let's get to a major story another round of severe weather on the way for many of the same areas that have been hard hit

over the weekend al has been busy tracking the storms, letting us know what to expect. >> we're really concerned about what will be happening in the next 48 hours. right now winter weather alerts for millions flood alerts for three million we have wind alerts for 26 million. you can see on the satellite radar we already have snow firing up throughout parts of the plains where we are lookin at blizzard conditions, heavy snow and thundershowers. today heavy snow, blizzard conditions into minnesota. severe storms developing later this afternoon and this evening. 42 million people at risk. for strong torntd tornadoes. intense, damaging winds. golf ball sized hail these are the areas we're most concerned about, little rock, west plains, little rock down to tyler, texas the greatest threat for these tornadoes late afternoon into the evening. nocturnal tornadoes twice as deadly tomorrow these storms move east. winter weather firing up severe weather will last throughout the entire day.

buffalo, detroit chicago is right now in this area where we could see ef-2 tornadoes or stronger. and this tornado threat will be from the morning through the evening, so we will be watching this champagne, detroit, toledo cleveland might even get added into this later on heavy rain, hourly rates on wednesday of up to 2 inches per hour could be flooding from texas on in to louisiana. blizzard-like conditions from northern minnesota all the way into the rockies so, again, we've got everything but the kitchen sink over the next 72 hours and we will continue to track it. >> al, thank you. in the meantime, we ar learning more about the chinese spy balloon that traveled across the united states. the first to report new details on the intelligence it was able to gather and send back to beijing. janis mackey frayer is on the story for us good morning. >> reporter: good morning. it still isn't clear how much

information china might have gathered, but u.s. officials tell nbc news that as the chinese balloon flew over several military sites, it was collecting intelligence, despite efforts to block it from doing this morning, new details about what that chinese spy balloon was doing as it traveled over the u.s. in february in exclusive reporting by nbc news, the air ship china claims was just a weather balloon was able to gather intelligence passing over sensitive u.s. military sites according to two current and one former senior official, it was being maneuvered from china, even steered in a figure eight pattern at times and collected electrical signals collected from u.s. bases. rejected u.s. claims of spying, repeating that it was a civilian balloon.

what is also known is that the balloon was able to send back intelligence to china in realtime. >> as of right now, we're stil doing an assessment of what the intel was that china was able to gather. >> reporter: national security officials say the u.s. did take measures to limit the balloon's ability to gather sensitive data from the time it took offer on china's island until it was shot down on president biden's orders. >> obviously, this was an intelligence gathering platform, which is why we took action. >> reporter: sources also say the balloon had a remote self-destruct mechanism, but it is unclear whether it failed or if china didn't use it in the fallout over the spy balloon, u.s.-china relations have hit a new low there are no talks on any issue here now adding to the tension, house kevin mccarthy meeting tomorrow in california with the president of taiwan, a summit that

with what we can expect on this historic day hey, garrett good morning >> reporter: you said it, it will be historic the moment the former president, donald trump, walks through the doors of the courthouse behind me, he will be the first-ever current or former president to face charges he will do it while seeking the white house for a third time there is a lot we know about what will happen today and a lot we frankly do not know we expect the former president will face some 30 odd charges or counts related to document fraud. but we do not know the specifics of what those charges will be. they are still under seal, likely to be released to the public just about the same time mr. trump walks into the courtroom around 2:00 this afternoon. now, the judge has already made one ruling in this case. overnight deciding against allowing television cameras into the courtroom. that was a motion that donald trump's attorneys made to say that they didn't want tv cameras in the courtroom the judge ruling in their favor. that is not to say there will not be television coverage you can probably see behind me every square inch of a block and a half of lower manhattan this morning is taken up by

television crews, nypd officers. part of downtown is locked down with cameras trained on the building behind me waiting for donald trump's arrival also this morning, we are expecting to see at least one significant protest downtown, led by trump ally marjorie taylor greene. yesterday the new york city mayor had a message to her and other protesters down here do not cause a ruckus, do not take things too far. the nypd is ready for anything we could see anything on a historic day. hoda >> garrett, thank you. tens of millions of americans are in the path of severe storms once again from texas all the way to the northeast. al is back this has been a busy week. who has the worst of it now? >> oh, my gosh we have seven million people under weather alerts 26 million people especially in the southwest under wind alerts and flood alerts for wind and snow

jenna is here with the story of a district that's trying. >> you may think a group of school kids hope and dreamed this up. but in this case it is an ohio superintendent behind the push. he's hoping to help an overworked group of teachers by instituting a four-day workweek. >> right now you need to get out your chromebook. >> reporter: in classrooms coast to coast, many devoted teachers work long hours, even weekends for the love of the job. >> really good teaching has a lot of components that extend beyond the direct instruction that you do in a classroom. >> reporter: but in north college hills schools, superintendent eugene blaylock is alarmed by what's happening. what were you seeing in your teachers? >> you walk through the building and you can see it in their eyes how tired they are. >> reporter: teacher burn-out and a whole lot of it. >> i was a teacher. i think it is the most important job there is. i know from my time in the classroom that it is not a 9:00 to 5:00. teachers are spending hours in

the afternoon planning, collaborating. >> and the teachers don't have ample time to do that, then they struggle. and it is almost like being on a hamster wheel. you are just going, going, going and you never get a chance to go and take a breath. i think it is a dying profession. >> reporter: and teaching is only part of the job. >> teachers didn't sign up to be police officers or security guards those are all things that plague on the stress level. >> reporter: so superintendent blaylock said enough is enough his entire district is now switching to a four-day school week students will only go in tuesday through friday monday is for self-guided work at home, while teachers have a student free day at school for lesson planning. >> we really dig deep. this is about student achievement. and if our teachers aren't 100%, then our students won't get what they need and deserve. >> reporter: among parents there is a lot of support, but some hesitation, too. >> i'm excited because i think that it gives the teachers and

kids a little bit of a break. >> i'm glad to see they're being innovative, but i feel like the world is not yet ready for that schedule. >> reporter: here, the new four-day week will start in august, with provisions being made to help parents with child care needs and reduced meal compensation. >> i was so happy. i was like, yes, this is what we need it gives students more time to breathe and relax. >> reporter: while some argue kids need to make up for lost class time during the pandemic educators here believe this is the right equation to score with students and teachers alike. >> we reenergized the teachers, and they are 100% onboard. it might change the game completely >> wow >> and, you guys, he's not the only superintendent doing this there is 850 schools across the country that already have a four-day workweek instilled or school week. obviously it is five days of working, but four days actually in school. >> boy, this is a huge shift because i think a lot of people

might look at it and go, wait a second i want my kid in five days i work five days what's the argument? what are parents saying? >> yeah. i mean, i think many parents are saying that, but he is making sure there is accommodations for kids that need child care so that they can go to school they're figuring that out. but also, the school i taught in washington, d.c. was 99% free and reduced lunch, meaning all of our kids needed to eat there breakfast and lunch. >> with the pandemic, a lot of kids were missing meals and a lot of kid missed school during the pandemic it is not like there is an easy answer, but how interesting that he's willing to experiment to try it to see if we can persist in this conversation. >> tote. i think because of the pandemic, this is why this is happening, because they did figure out how to feed kids that needed food even during the depth of the pandemic it is hard because there are studies that say that kids are behind because of being at home for that year.

>> i think putting the finger on something he said, which i teaching is a dying profession to hear him say that outloud was awful. we all know teachers are underappreciated, underpaid. >> totally. >> like all of those things and now expected in the school to protect children from some kind of physical harm >> and the hours and hours i think sometimes we think as parents -- i mean, i remember when i taught. i went to a party with my sister here in new york somebody said what is your job i said, i'm a third grade teacher. they said how cute teaching is -- kids are cute teaching is not. >> sometimes kids are cute >> teaching is dynamic it is a very hard job. and it is one that is necessary for the success of our country you're right, there are so many things that can be done. this is one of them, you know? by the way, the teachers will work on monday, but they will spend that day doing planning, which is something they're spending their evenings doing at home.

>> like in some cases the kids can come to the school, a study hall something with more of a modified schedule, so that might alleviate the parents' concerns, too. >> some great ideas are born out of desperation you can tell he's desperate. he wants to keep his teachers, so he came up with something innovative, which i think is super cool. >> as parents, we should go into our teachers' classrooms, e-mail them and say what can we do to help we know they're overworked and underappreciated by society. how can we help you? that's one way we can help out. >> love it when jenna is on a mission. i love it. >> if you want to find out more about this, a really interesting conversation, you can go to our website, today.com we will see in our next half hour because we have something to celebrate, your april book reveal the author herself. >> she's here. i'm so excited she's incredible. >> we have a little surprise, too. there is a lot happening right after a little bit but let's go to al. >> all right, guys we can see snow getting fired up through the plains where we will see blizzard conditions later
