rockefeller plaza. >> hi, everybody. good morning. welcome to "today." it is friday morning. it feels good. it feels even better because the jonas brothers are right outside ready for a concert. >> the place is packed. there is a song called "summer baby" that has caught my attention. >> will you be listening to it all summer long? >> on repeat. >> that's later this morning. we have overnight developments to tell you about along the southern border. >> here is a look at one of the locations migrants are headed into the united states this morning. >> it comes after title 42 expired at midnight. this was the restriction used during the pandemic to quickly turn away migrants, citing health concerns. nbc news confirmed the first group made the crossing with as many as 65,000 migrants in northern mexico waiting to cross. >> overnight, a major development.

a federal judge in florida blocking a biden administration's plan to directly release some, quote, thoroughly vetted migrants into the u.s. with no way to track them. move designed to speed up the process, but it's been blasted by critics, citing safety concerns. >> much to discuss with the homeland security secretary who has already issued a stern warning telling migrants the border is not open and that those that arrive without a lawful pathway will be presumed ineligible for asylum. let's get started at the border. senior national correspondent tom llamas in el paso, texas for us. tom, good morning. >> reporter: hey, savannah. good morning to you. look, no one expected title 42 to now to be smooth. but what's happening in places like el paso where we are this morning is a mess. you have migrants being processed and then being released in some cases without court dates. cities are fed up, they're saying shelters are full, and they can't understand what's going on.

here in el paso they are still sleeping on the ground outside of churches. now the bidden administration has a new court battle on their hands as tens of thousands are still trying to come into the u.s. this morning title 42 is done. but a part of president biden's plan to deal with it now on hold. overnight, a federal judge in florida temporarily blocking a biden administration policy aiming to speed up processing that would allow migrants into the country without court dates and with no way to track them. the record number of illegal crossings already taxing cities big and small. >> there is 3,500 people sitting along that tijuana border. a normal day is about 200 people. >> reporter: the search everyone is expecting is here. officials say more than 11,000 migrants were apprehended wednesday trying to enter the country illegally, the highest number ever. in el paso, many residents are fed up.

>> i understand that everybody wants a better future. but they're taking our taxes. they're taking everything from us. >> reporter: and the issue is not just impacting the border. in chicago, immigrants are sleeping in a police station. in denver, it is a parking garage overwhelming this intake center. >> there's nowhere else for these refugees to go. >> reporter: in new york city, mayor eric adams, a democrat, is at war with the suburbs where he's shipping migrants to hotels. blaming the biden administration for the city running out of shelter space. >> the national government has turned its back on new york city. >> reporter: parts of the border seen increased enforcement with more fencing and less troops in an effort to slow the influx. but tens of thousands making the dangerous journey to the u.s. the desperation clear. one group bringing a baby held in a suitcase.

under new rules from the biden immigration, immigrants seeking asylum need to do it first in another country, then schedule an appointment on the new app that some call confusing. if they cross illegally, they could be barred from the u.s. for at least five years. those new rules are set to begin today as the flow of migrants shows no slowing down. >> we must seal and secure our border, put back in policies that just make sense and that keep americans safe. >> reporter: now, the dhs told me just yesterday they hope this spike will level out, but it is unclear how because it takes months for these migrants to reach the u.s. to top of that they're being fed misinformation on social media. there are social media posts in spanish that have been seen millions of times that claim the border is open. the biden administration trying to control what's happening here with immigration.

back to you. appreciate it. joining us from washington is the secretary of homeland security, alejandro mayorkas. mr. secretary, good morning to you. >> good morning. thank you for having me. >> let us not sugar coat us. already you have a record number of crossings, exceeding your own estimates. you are severely crowded detention facilities already. the president acknowledged it will be chaotic for a while. that's his word, not mine. my question is why. you have had two years to prepare for this. why do we have this chaos and confusion at the border? >> savannah, the answer is very, very clear. we are operating within the constraints of a broken immigration system. there is unanimous agreement about that fact. our system has been broken for more than two decades. it was last reformed in the 1990s. so that is the first point.

the second point is we have not received from congress the resources that we need and that we requested. and so we need our immigration system fixed once and for all, and we need the resources that we have requested. >> mr. secretary -- >> now within those constraints -- >> mr. secretary, given those undisputed facts, that we have a broken immigration system, why not delay the expirations of title 42 until you are ready to handle it? even some democratic congress members have suggested let's delay it for a little while and get more ready. >> my answer is two-fold, savannah. number one, title 42 is a public health authority. the public health emergency has ended. we are now using our traditional immigration enforcement authorities, number one. number two, we have been preparing for this moment for

more than a year and a half. i have been very clear that it's going to be challenging, but we do have a plan. we're executing on our plan. and it will take some time for our plan to show results. but we have confidence in that plan because it has worked in the past. >> can i just ask you about that because one aspect of the plan are these regional processing centers where migrants could go, not right at our borders but be processed. that's the plan. but not one has been built yet. okay? it's been two years. the original lifting deadline for title 42 is actually a year ago. why isn't that construction already underway? why isn't this plan further along when you have known for two years this is coming? >> savannah, our president has led the greatest expansion of lawful pathways ever. let me be clear. we have communicated to the migrants, to individuals thinking of taking the journey that there is a right way to do

it that is lawful, safe and orderly, and there is a wrong way. and the wrong way is in the hands of smugglers. we already have multiple lawful pathways available to individuals. we have demonstrated their success with respect to individuals from cuba, haiti, nicaragua. and venezuela. we have expanded those. the regional processing centers are an additional pathway that are being built now, and they require the negotiation and the planning with our international partners. so we are only expanding the lawful pathways. people need to take them because what they are going to encounter at our border is border patrol agents who will take them into custody and remove them. we're going to be delivering tougher consequences. >> let me ask you about this severe overcrowding we're already seeing in detention

facilities. they're overflowing such that you have allowed a new policy that allows some highly vetted countries to be released into this country but with no court date and no way to track them. late yesterday a federal judge struck that down. what now then? what do you do about this overcrowding? >> so we consider that ruling to be very harmful. the procedure that we were executing is something that other administrations have done. these individuals are screened and vetted, and then they are released and then placed into immigration enforcement proceedings. the department of justice is, of course, considering its options with respect to the court's ruling. we are ready for different eventualities, savannah. >> people will hear that, wait, even if it's a subset, relatively a small number, you say the border is not open,

but there is a subset of people that are being released into this country with no court date and no way to track them. i mean, that sounds like the border is open for some. >> oh, savannah, the vast majority are being removed. i think if one asked, any one of the 1.4 million people who are expelled, removed or returned last year, i don't think they would tell you that the border is open. >> the administration has enacted a new policy that would require migrants to have first attempted asylum in another country before they come to the u.s. this is a policy the president harshly criticized. i'm going to play some sound here. >> this is the first president in the history of the united states of america that anybody seeking asylum has to do it in another country. that's never happened before in america. that's never happened before in america. you come to the united states and you make your case.

>> then-candidate biden outraged at president trump for a policy he is now enacting. what changed? did he fail to understand the difficulties here? >> savannah, actually, that's not true. this is not the trump administration policy by any means. number one, we have built lawful, safe and orderly pathways for people to use. number two, if they don't use those pathways, then they will have had to have made a claim for asylum or protection in one of the countries through which they travel and have been denied. if they don't do either of those things, they don't face a ban like that one that existed in the trump administration. but they have a higher burden of proof to meet. we have a security obligation and a humanitarian obligation to cut the ruthless smugglers out. we see too much tragedy and trauma, too much death at the hands of smugglers.

we are cutting them out. we are building lawful pathways. we are going to deliver consequences for people who don't use those pathways. we have an obligation to disincentivise people from taking a dangerous journey and suffering peril. >> mr. secretary, this is an incredibly complex situation and i'm glad you mentioned the human aspect of that because that is key. i have to ask you a question. does the president bear some responsibility for the surge we're seeing right now? i want to play you a piece of something he said during the campaign back in 2019. take a listen. >> all those people are seeking asylum. they deserve to be heard. that's who we are. we're a nation that says if you want to flee and you're facing oppression, you should come. >> mr. secretary, they came. they're sitting outside our border right now. it is cold at night, sizzling hot during the day.

there is dust, there are children, they came. did that messaging encourage people to make this crossing? >> what it encouraged people to make the crossing is the false information, the lies that the smuggling organization communicate. that's what makes these people take the dangerous journey. they're deceived into doing so. let me share with you, though, what is the fundamental point here. the fundamental point is that we need congress to act. the president on day one presented congress with legislative reform. our system has been broken for more than two decades. everyone agrees about that. it's time, not to criticize, it is time to act. fix the system. give us the resources we need and have requested. those are the avenues that our legislators need to take. >> everybody agrees this is a broken system. mr. secretary, difficult times.

thank you for your time this morning for answering questions. it is much appreciated. >> thank you, savannah. also this morning a major development in new york's subway choke hold death here in new york that sparked widespread protests. the former marine at the center of the case now facing charges. stephanie gosk is here with the latest. good morning. >> reporter: hey there. that 24-year-old veteran, daniel penny, surrendered this morning. he can be seen in that infamous video putting a homeless man in a choke hold. it has led to protests throughout the city. the video we are about to show you is disturbing. ten days after the death of jordan neely captured on video, the manhattan da taking action against a man that put him in a choke hold. writing, we are confirm daniel penny will be arrested on manslaughter in the second degree. the manslaughter charge carrying a sentence of up to 15 years.

penny, a marine veteran, put neely in a choke hold for several minutes. one witness said the homeless performer had been screaming at passengers, saying he was hungry and ready to die when penny acted. lawyers for penny said he and others on the train were aggressively threatened by neely. overnight releasing a statement saying penny risked his life and safety for fellow passengers, adding we are confident once all the facts and circumstances surrounding this incident are brought to bear mr. penny will be absolved of any wrongdoing. at the time of the incident, penny was questioned by police and released. the death was called homicide,c, sparking outrage and protests throughout the city. while some are calling penny's actions vigilanteism, others point to the issues of homelessness and mental illness in new york city. >> jordan neely did not deserve

to die and all of us must work to do more to help our brothers and sisters struggling with serious mental illness. >> reporter: neely who police say was arrested more than 40 times was known to b struggling with mental illness since his mother's murder in 2007. >> hospitalization as a tactic -- it's not a plan jordan had been in the hospital. if you place someone in the hospital when they're released with no continuum of care, it doesn't really help. >> reporter: today's anticipated arrest easing tensions in a conflicted city. mayor adams wants to bring together leaders of homeless outreach services next week for a summit in improvin outcomes for people with serious mental illness the goal to develop an action plan to ensure homeless accountability and get people the help they need. jordan neely will be laid to rest on may 19th >> thank you so much craig joining us this

certain have weakened such a poultry and pork. >> reporter: this owner walking us through your best deals you mentioned chicken and poultry. better value in here >> definitely. compared to beef, poultry is much more reasonable right now chicken wings are the best bet right now in the market. great for grilling >> reporter: as for key tips to save more, a private label can be around 20% cheaper and look ahead of time online at what stores are dolling out. >> if i have to pay for something, i will wait and buy it when it is buy one, get one free. >> sam, some good news here. i mean can we continue to see these food prices go down? >> reporter: no doubt trends are moving in the right direction. this is month to month now that is what's dipped. if you look at grocery prices year over year, where were we 12 months ago

still 7.1% more expensive for groceries. a lot of families are thinking it is still elevated from the pandemic, that is true go back to august of 2022 when it was a 13.5% increase year over year. that is, again, a better direction we're going. some of the underlying causes, labor issues, supply chain issues they're still there. but fuel has come down more than 12%. one of the driving reasons right now why we're looking at a slightly more digestible tab for families ahead of the holidays. all right. thank you. all right, let's go over to dylan and find out what's happening with the weather. >> we're watching a significant system that moved through texas. we saw a lot yesterday and will see more rain today. now, the soil in texas is very rich in clay so it doesn't absorb a lot of water. different terrain and elevations that creates runoff. with all this heavy rain expected, we are looking at the potential for some flooding. we could see as much as 7, 8, 9, 10 inches of rain in some areas

because the storm is not moving quickly to the east. once it does, more moisture reinforces it coming in from the south. we are going to see this threat of flash flooding, especially down across central texas, including san antonio into del rio. we could see rainfall rates of two to three inche of rain per hour that will be the biggest concern. with as much as six to ten inches possible and, again, as i mentioned, doesn't absorb a whole lot of water in the first place we're looking at a chance of severe storms today, especially across the midwest moving through the plains states wher we could see large hail, l, good friday morning. i'm meteorologist kari hall. it's going to be mostly sunny going into late morning as well as the afternoon. a little bit warmer than it was yesterday as we start that warming trend. and for our inland valleys, we'll see temperatures peaking tomorrow up to about 90 degrees, and still pretty hot on mother's day with a slight chance of an

isolated storm. and then going into next week, it's still pretty warm, but a little bit milder. san francisco will see low to and that's your latest forecast. >> all right, dylan. thank you. coming up next, we're putting kids and their love of sports on display for the boost right ahead after this are we clolose? gogoogle assisistant: tuturn left inin four milel. ♪ ehhhhhhh n no. ♪ ¿cucuáles son t tus intetenciones cocon mi nieto? google assssistant: what are y your intentntions with my y grandson?? lilife's lilittle problblem, fifixed on goooogle pixel.. ththe only phohone enengineered b by google buy gogoogle pixixel 7a and get t pixel budsds a-seri. ♪♪ ♪ find d it ♪ ♪ tryry it ♪ ♪ paintnt it ♪ ♪ love e it ♪ ♪ find d it ♪ ♪ tryry it ♪ ♪ paiaint it ♪ ♪ lovove it ♪

91-year-old robert frey says a mugger on a bike snatched his laptop from the back of his wheelchair as he waited for a bus last week in redwood city. samtrans said it had no surveillance cameras in the area where it happened. frey hopes by speaking out, it can lead to changes. >> time to get a look at that forecast. meteorologist kari hall is checking the numbers across the bay area. >> we're going to see those numbers going up. that means warmer temperatures, especially for the inland valleys. across the bay area, seeing a wide range in temperatures from mid-60s near the coast to mid to upper 80s for the inland valleys. it's going to be hot tomorrow with temperatures going up another 10 degrees, reaching 91 in spots like martinez and los gatos, and in san francisco some mid-70s, up to 91 in livermore and san martin, and even going into mother's day it's still going to be hot, with some low 90s in the inland east bay into the tri-valley, while the coastline will be in the low 70s.

we're going to continue to see more of this heat in the forecast through next week. >> thanks, kari. we'll have another local news update in 30 minutes.

we've got some other interesting news martha stewart will be here next week that's not surprising. maybe you do know her, maybe you know her show. but trust us, you have never, ever seen martha the way you are going to see her on monday do not miss this big reveal. we're going to emphasize that again. >> you won't see her the same after this >> true. >> you don't want to miss this that's next week on "today." let's get to news at 8:00 friday morning a new surge of migrants at the southern border after those title 42 pandemic restrictions expired overnight. the u.s. military and federal agents there and on alert. nbc senior national correspondent tom llamas in el paso along the border with what's being done to keep the immigration system from being overwhelmed, and it is already overwhelmed, tom >> reporter: it is, savannah great to be with you this morning. listen, the surge is here, and it's been here all week. we are tracking historic highs more than 11,000 migrants crossing illegally every single

day, and there is no sign of a slowdown whatsoever. because of that, cities across america are demanding that the biden administration do more they are stretched to the limit when it comes to the resources they can provide and their shelter space. there are states of emergencies in cities like new york, chicago, and right here in el paso where they have had families and migrants sleeping outside of churches like you see just behind me here for weeks. you talk to residents of el paso, and they'll tell you they feel for the migrants here, but this is just not right this is taking over their city, and something has to be done it's unclear what's going to happen because in many cases these migrants are being processed, and then being released, and in some cases we know they're not being given court dates, and there's no way to track them. earlier on savannah had the chance to ask the secretary of homeland security about what's happening with those court dates. >> you say the border is not open but there is a subset of people who are being released into this country with no court date and no way to track them

i mean, that's that sounds like the border is open for some. >> oh, savannah, the vast majority are being removed i think if one asks any one of the 1.4 million people who were expelled, removed, or returned last year, i don't think they would tell you that the border is open. >> reporter: now this morning a federal judge in florida says the biden administration cannot do that, they cannot be releasing migrants without court dates. it's one more obstacle the biden administration is now going to have to face they now have a new court battle on their hands savannah >> tom llamas at the border. thank you. the feud between disney and ron desantis is escalating just as the florida governor appears closer to entering the 2024 presidential race. the head of disney now accusing florida officials of retaliating against the company. nbc national correspondent gabe gutierrez has the details. >> reporter: governor desantis plans to visit iowa tomorrow,

widely seen as one step closer to announcing a presidential run. his ongoing feud with disney is making new headlines disney's ceo suggesting the company's plans to invest billions of dollars in florida over the next decade could be in jeopardy as speculation mounts over his potential run for president, florida's republican governor ron desantis is facing even more pushback from disney on an earnings call with investors, disney's ceo, bob iger, responding when asked about the company's ongoing fight with the state of florida. >> this is about one thing and one thing only, and that's retaliating against us for taking a position about pending legislation. and we believe that in us taking that position we are merely exercising our right to free speech >> reporter: while iger says disney still plans to invest $17 billion over the next ten years at walt disney world, he pointedly asked this question -- >> does the state want us to invest more, employ more people, and pay more taxes, or not >> reporter: the battle began

last year when disney opposed the parental rights in education act desantis signed that opponents labeled a "don't say gay" law the policy banned teaching about sexual orientation or gender identity in florida classrooms desantis and florida legislators are now trying to get rid of disney's decades' old deal allowing the company to essentially govern itself. iger is accusing florida of unfairly targeting disney saying many of the almost 2,000 other special districts in the state like those surrounding the daytona speedway and the villages retirement community have not faced the same scrutiny desantis is not backing down, telling newsmax last week -- >> can't have a situation where the legislature has spoken and one company just decides to contract out against the will of the people the end of the day, i think they just have to understand the party is over for them >> reporter: in conservative lake county, florida, some h40 miles from walt disney world, many tell us they support their governor

>> definitely on desantis' side. go walt, go broke. >> reporter: other voters doubt whether desantis' rhetoric matches his record >> going around the country, now the world saying that florida is free, that he's made us more free he hasn't made us more free. >> reporter: governor desantis also signed a transportation bill that gives the state authority to inspect disney's monorail system. so the disney drama continues with a happy ending looking increasingly unlikely. >> all right thank you so much. we'll go to the nba playoffs now. the denver nuggets punched their ticket to the western conference finals overnight they beat the phoenix suns 125-120. yokich leading the way for denver with 32 points. nuggets winning the series, moving to the next round they'll face the lakers or warriors game six of that series tonight in l.a we'll be watching friday night. crack open a beer. okay here, eastern conference the celtics beat the 76ers 95-86.

identical triplets so what do you think the odds are of identical triplets all becoming ob-gyns just like their mom and then joining her practice we have to believe these women are the very first this is dr. jan, an ob-gyn in miami, florida you're not seeing double vision, and no, that's not triple vision rather, it is because these three young doctors ar her identical triplet daughters, all ob-gyns now working together in the same medical practice possibly the first time this has ever happened in history when did it click for you this was going to be a family affair? >> i never would even dream about it it would be too good to be true. and they came to their senses and decided that was the thing to do. >> reporter: they knew not only were they in a unique circumstance as identical triplets but had a front row seat as a working mother already

breaking barriers. how did you first, i guess, become interested in gynecology and obstetrics during a time there wasn't a lot of few people -- a lot of women in the field? >> no, there were not. there were few women in my class. when i finished and opened my own practice there was only one other woman delivering babies at the big, local hospital so i was busy right from the start. >> reporter: she had hopes from the start that her daughters might follow in or footsteps but almost derailed her dreams inadvertently when she got called into work at the mall >> i'd rather you saw your first delivery when you were 8 years old. >> we were out shopping and i had to go to the hospital. >> i remember a lot of bright lights and screaming and then the poor patient was like, i'm sorry for cursing. i knew at some point younger that i wanted to be a doctor but if anything, it made me think, maybe not this one because i feel a little sick. >> reporter: do you think the dynamic of what you guys have

sets you apart in what way? >> it's unique it makes for a happy workplace and that only translates into the work you provide and hopefully happier patients >> this is how we grew up, treating people the way you want to be treated. so that extends to our patients, too. >> reporter: patients like miriam rivera. >> she has been a patient of mine for 40 years, and i delivered her daughter, michelle michelle, come here. >> hi, michelle! >> and my daughters delivered michelle's two babies. >> reporter: oh, my goodness how cool is that for you >> it's triple cool. >> reporter: if i were to ask you what you did right, what would you say? >> teaching my daughters to be responsible, to be caring and focus on their education >> reporter: just don't accuse her of playing favorites. >> we joke sometimes that she's

my favorite. but i don't have favorites she's not. i can't say they're all the same they're each just really fine people, and they have great qualities for caring and being empathetic and also really funny, especially vicky. >> especially, the favorite, vicky. >> how lucky are we? we've got all of your together janet and her daughters. we're so happy you all are here. i'm marveling at you, just marveling at what you are able to do in your life i know you said you taught your daughters well, but there must be something else in the water at your house because you could teach them well, but this might not have happened. why do you think it is all three wound up following you >> i just think by example they saw the work i did as

interesting, and i always included them in what i was doing, and they loved science and they pursued the career. i never wanted to impose my career on them i think they just over time decided that with the familiarity with it that that's what they wanted to do. >> your mom is a real trail blazer she was a female doctor goin into ob-gyn when there was no example to follow. you're so lucky you had her example to follow. can you lead us into how this all went down. we are all going to go to medical school was anyone like, why don't you do something else? you be a veterinarian, i'll be the -- how did this work >> it wasn't really a set plan i guess we grew up sort of familiar with everything and used to it in seeing what our mom was capable of, and it all kind of fell into place. it wasn't really a grand plan, but at some point it just made sense. why do we want to separate and do something different. >> were you competitive and grades and all the different

stuff that happens in med school >> luckily not and i think that's the secret to why we work so well. we were never competitive. we always worked together, studying together. yeah. >> how does this work at the practice because y'all really are identical. i guess you know that already. so how does it work? you all have the same last name. that's one of three people. >> yeah. >> are there funny things that happen in the practice >> we have to say dr. joanna, dr. sara dr. vicky. >> got it. >> that's the best. >> i think a nice fun way we say, wait. are you my doctor? it's fun >> i love it i mentioned, you're 35 weeks pregnant >> i am. an i asked would you deliver your sister's baby? you all said no. >> we talked about that, and i get that question all the time of course i would trust them with anything, but i just wanted
