12:00 pm
hi, everyone, i'm kate snow? and i'm zinhle essamuah. "nbc news daily" starts right now.
12:01 pm
today, tuesday, may 16th, 2023. motive for murder. the search for answers of a teenage gunman goes on a killing spree in new mexico. what we're learning about the arsenal of weapons he had and how police finally ended the violent rampage. touching tribute the widow of the bride killed by a suspected drunk driver hours after their wedding is speaking out. how he's honoring her memory two weeks after her death. lost and found, an illinois girl reunited with her father six years after being abducted by her mother and how a netflix series helped lead to the reunion. the cdc warning of a potential mpox resurgence. what you need to know. >> we begin with america's latest deadly mass shooting, this time in new mexico. investigators there are examining evidence in a large crime scene in the city of farmington where a teenage gunman killed three people and
12:02 pm
injured six others. among those hurt are two police officers, one of whom is estimate in the hospital. >> yeah, police confronted the shooter and killed him minutes into the attack. mass shootings have been happening with alarming frequency this year. there have been 225 mass shootings, over 136 days so far in 2023. a mass shooting is defined by the gun violence archive as an incident with four or more people are hurt. rehema ellis is following this story for us so, rehema, what do we know about those who were killed and the conditions of those of who survived but are still. >> reporter: >> reporter: we don't know a lot about those injured or who were killed. authorities are expected to hold a news conference later this afternoon. we certainly hope we'll get more information then. but at this point, as you mentioned, we do know of the victims, two police officers were shot, one remains in the hospital, the other was able to go home. and of those who were killed, we know there were three
12:03 pm
70-year-old women, one who left five children behind. and of the victims, victims were also those who may not have been pierced by bullets, but this horror of what happened there certainly is wounding them as well. listen to one woman who managed to get out of this alive. >> it went from pop, pop, pop. to pop, pop, pop, pop, pop, pop and i freaked out because i knew then it was gunshots, and i just grabbed my daughter. we just barricaded in between the washer and the dryer. >> reporter: so it's just incredible when you hear the sound from this woman talking about how she heard these gunshots and just imagine what might have been going through her mind as she's trying to figure out how does she keep her family safe. >> you can only imagine. rehema, what are police saying about the suspect, a possible motive? >> reporter: this is a big part of what's going on here, the suspect we know is an 18-year-old man that he was walking through about a quarter mile area of the community, just
12:04 pm
randomly shooting at cars, houses like this woman's house. and why did he do this? we understand authorities have also been questioning his family to try and find out if they could reveal some sort of a motive. maybe we will get some answers to all of this as i say, a news conference is scheduled with authorities a little bit later this afternoon. a lot of questions we all have for them. hopefully they'll have some answers. >> we know you'll stay on it, rehema ellis, thank you. lawmakers on capitol hill and the people who work for them are very concerned about their safety today. on monday a man wielding a bat attacked two staffers inside the district office of virginia congressman gerry connolly. those staffers are out of the hospital. the suspect is in custody. today the u.s. capitol police chief testified on the hill saying lawmakers and their staffs are becoming bigger targets for potential violence. >> one of the biggest challenges we face today is dealing with the sheer increase in the number
12:05 pm
of threats against the members of congress. it's gone up over 400% over the last six years. >> nbc news correspondent ryan nobles is on capitol hill for us. what do we know about the suspect? what sort of charges is he facing? >> reporter: he's facing four different charges, three felonies and stem from two different incidents that took place yesterday. in addition to the attack on the congressman's office which he is accused of the same suspect is accused of approaching a woman in a car, asking if she was white and smashing the window of that car with that bat he used in the congressman's office and seen chasing her later in the day. as a result three felony charges of that and the hate crime that stemmed from the prior incident. an individual with a history of mental health problems. he was arrested back in january. those charges were ultimately
12:06 pm
dismissed and put into a mental health program. congressman connolly, i spoke to him a few minutes ago and he acknowledged it was a mental health situation. regardless, kate, it does still show how vulnerable these offices are for members of congress, particularly back in their home districts. >> yeah, ryan, i want to note that the capitol police chief, we mentioned he was scheduled to testify before the attack, but he did go ahead and testify and underscores the growing threats. what's being done to keep lawmakers and their staffers and their families safe? >> reporter: yeah, the capitol police chief saying this is his biggest challenge, 400% increase in these threats against members of congress and they're doing everything they can to try and harden these district offices, and congressman connolly told us this is a problem for not just democrats but republicans, as well. take a listen. >> i was really mobbed on the floor by republicans and democrats who easily related what happened to me today, like, we don't have security -- we don't have the
12:07 pm
kind of security we you have in the capitol at the district level. >> reporter: this isn't an easy solution. there are 535 members of congress, and one of the things they want to be is as accessible as possible to their constituents and want their offices to be open because part of their work is helping them with federal programs and different federal agencies and troubles that they may have. congressman connolly told me he's trying to find that balance right now, but right now us's most concerned about his staffers and their recovery, kate. >> big part of the work is constituent relations. ryan, thank you. america may just be two weeks away from a potential debt default but top lawmakers from both parties are no closer to a compromise. >> i'll be glad to sit in at the white house to support speaker mccarthy and urge president biden to start operating in reality. >> nobody should say unless you do this then we default because
12:08 pm
the consequences will be devastating for america. >> nbc news white house correspondent allie raffa is in washington. a deadline to avoid default could come as soon as june 1st, a few weeks away. what are you hearing today as speaker mccarthy heads to the white house. >> reporter: yeah, zinhle, i'm glad you brought up the timing piece of this. the timing has become so critical, as a matter of fact that just a few minutes ago in today's white house press briefing we heard officials hint that the president's week-long overseas trip that was supposed to cover three countries could be trimmed short of two of those stop, those officials saying that the rest of that trip is being re-evaluated after the president goes to japan for the g7 summit and white house officials have said from the beginning that the president remains clear-eyed and realistic about this and doesn't expect a done deal coming out of today's meeting. he simply expects there to be progress in finding common ground with republicans on some
12:09 pm
of the things that we are hearing these conversations pertain to, things like finding common ground on permitting reform, clawing back unspent covid funds, those seem to be the most likely areas of agreement because the white house has drawn a hard line for republicans on things like spending cuts to their democratic priorities, as well as adding work requirements to federal aid programs, so there is a lot to squeeze in, not just in today's meeting but in the two weeks before that so-called june 1st x date and it's looking like potentially the president could trim that down to get all of this done before then. >> yeah, the president shortening his trip is no small thing. the stakes high and a lot of talk about the potential consequences of a default. what impact would that have beyond capitol hill on everyday people? >> reporter: yeah, zinhle, really the stakes could not be higher, because this is -- this would be unprecedented. the uted states defaulting on
12:10 pm
its debt so becau it's never happened before, there's really no playbook on how to prepare for it. we do know that if the u.s. was not able to pay its debts and had to decide what to pay and what not t pay, the results could be catastrophic we know that federal benefs like social security could be frozen, interest and mortgage rates could rise even higher than they already are. there are estimates that more than 7 million americans could lose their jobs and the u.s. dollar would be severely weakened which would, of course, have global effects so treasury secretary janet yellen warned even this morning that these results would be absolutely catastrophic if the u.s. were to default on its debts for the first time in history, zinhle. >> we know you'll stay on this. allie, thank you. let's turn to financial news. thousands of jeeps are being recalled and it's tuesday, taco tuesday and taco bell is fighting for taco tuesday. >> okay. morgan brennan joins us now with cnbc's "money minute." hi, morgan.
12:11 pm
>> hi. amazon is considering to push forward in ai technology. the e-commerce giant looking to add a chatgpt style search to its online store. it has already listed job postings with these ambitions. it rifles microsoft's efforts to infuse searches with ai. recalling nearly 220,000 jeep cherokees because they could catch on fire even when engines are off and aat thes power lift gates on certain cherokees from 2014 to 2016 models and warns the suvs shoulding parked out --s until it can figure out a fix. the carmaker says it is not aware of any injuries. and taco bell is fighting to quote, unquote liberate the taco tuesday trademark filing a position with the patent trademark to cancel it owned by taco john's, been owned by them for 34 years.
12:12 pm
since they own it others must seek permission to use "taco tuesday" in branding and advertising and, of course, guys, we're getting this news on what else, a tuesday. >> so it's like trademarked? >> yes. >> taco tuesday. >> ask for permission to use it. >> from this wyoming-based much smaller chain called taco john's and apparently according to the reports they're litigious about it and own the trademark in 49 of the 00 state, not new jersey. >> don't tell them i've been using taco tuesday for my whole life. thank you, morgan. what one of the victims of that deadly outlet mall rampage is saying about the terrifying ordeal. how a netflix series helped how a netflix series helped bring a young girl home s six when modererate to sevevere ulcecerative cololitis keeps flflaring, when modererate to sevevere ulcecerative cololitis put itit in check k with rin, a a once-dailyly pill. put itit in check k with rin, whenen uc got unprpredictable,e, i got rarapid symm relief witith rin. and left b bathrom urgegency behind. check. and left b bathrom urgegency behind. whwhen uc got t in my way,, i i got lastining, steroid-frfree remissision

their children as well. take a listen to what they had to say. [ crowd chanting ] >> reporter: they were saying we support asylum seekers, but not at school and, kate, this comes after months of mayor eric adams sounding the alarm over just how many migrants had come to new york city, so far the city has received more than 60,000 and by next year taxpayers will foot the bill for their care to the tune of $4 billion, an ongoing situation over the last several months, as you know, several suburban counties are fighting back trying to go to court with new york city to prevent migrants being bused to their areas. surrounding rockland county as well as orange county, those suburban counties around new york city, so this controversy certainly boiling over not just

unsolved mysteries and worth noting it was featured in a peacock series or one streaming called "vanished: the missing persons project" shining a national spotlight on her case and she was 9 years old when police say her mother heather unbehaun, the woman recognized in north carolina, and who also did not have custody of her kidnapped her from her home here in the chicago area, kayla is now 15 and we're told she's in the custody of the north carolina division of social services. she is expected to be brought back to illinois and reunited with family soon. zinhle, but just crazy to think about after all these years. >> absolutely and shows you the power of media here, i mean, what's next, maggie for both the mother and also have we heard anything from kayla's father? >> reporter: yeah, so first of all with the mother, with heather she is now in custody and charged with kidnapping. she's expected to be extradited back here to illinois on that charge soon. as far as the father goes, he released a statement quickly
12:37 pm
through the center for missing aeks exploited children and says he wants to thank the south elgin police department, the chicago suburb where they live and the national center for missing enexploited childrennd all the law enforcement agencies that assisted and thank the followers of the facebook page that they started to, as you can see, bring kayla home and added we asked for privacy as we get to know each other again and navigate this new beginning and hasn't seen her since she was 9. she's now 15 and they'll meet for the first time in six year, zinhle, so we wish them well. >> we do. maggie, thank you. artificial intelligence took center stage today in a high-stakes hearing on capitol hill as congress tries to grapple with what to do about the revolutionary technology. sam altman, the ceo of the company that developed chatgpt issued a dire warning. >> my worst fires are we cause
12:38 pm
significant -- we, the field, the technology cause significant harm to the world. >> harm to the world. cnbc's technology correspondent is here with us. >> reporter: what didn't we hear? this hearing covered everything from potential disruption on social media, for example, senator josh howley and senator klobuchar said what if it's used to generate new ads and going into the '24 election. all kinds of stuff. senator marsha blackburn said what happens when ai tools scrape copyrighted material which leads into the jobs question and what that means for jobs like yours and mine and so many other white collar jobs that could be disrupted by ai. here's what sam altman had to say about that. >> there will be an impact on
12:39 pm
jobs and i think it will require partnership between industry and government but mostly by government to see how to mitigate it but i'm optimistic about how great the jobs of the future will be. >> reporter: that was the theme from sam altman saying we need regulation. basically there was surprise on the senators' side saying we never have people you begging for regulation and yet here you are saying please regulate us before this gets out of hand. a huge theme today. >> almost feels like he was saying please, senators, pass some kind of legislation, take some action. is there a sense that there might be some legislation pending? do they even -- i hate to say it, understand ai well enough to be able to legislate around it? >> reporter: well, on the understanding point there was -- this was more of an educational hearing, i would say. they were trying to get their arms around this technology and what can be done but, look, nothing really solid on the books yet. it's going to take a while. i would note that eu already has an ai law.
12:40 pm
they've been ahead of us regulating technology industries for awhile now and they're already doing it again with ai. that was another concern brought up in the hearing today is that eu regulating these u.s. companies for us, no one here wants that to happen. they want the u.s. to be a leader so that's why we're seeing so much effort to get ahead of the story, get ahead of any potential regulation and really own this space which so many people believe is the future for technology. >> all right, steve kovach, thank you so much. >> thanks, kate. the battle over abortion rights is front and center in north carolina. right now the republican controlled assembly is meeting to try to override the governor's veto of a proposed 12-week abortion ban and yamiche alcindor is here. it's expected to happen shortly. what can we expect from the vote and break down what exactly is at stake here. >> reporter: well, today the future of abortion access is at stake in north carolina. this new bill would ban virtually all abortions after 12
12:41 pm
weeks of pregnancy. that is a change, of course, from the state's current 20-week ban. this new bill was passed through the north carolina legislature in less than 48 hours and now the gop which has a thin supermajority in the legislature is expected to override it of the democratic governor roy cooper and note republicans can do this because one democrat in the statehouse switched parties in april. she was at one point an outspoken supporter of abortion rights and even talked about having a medically necessary abortion herself. but she since changed her party and her tune and has voted to restrict abortion access so the timing of this vote is fluid but the state said it opens at 4:00 p.m. and expecting state senators to vote. >> with all that what are we hearing from governor cooper ahead of the vote? >> reporter: governor cooper now in his second term has been barnstorming the state of north carolina. he's trying to mobilize voters to convince them, i mean convince one gop senator to vote to stop this new abortion bang. it only takes one republican,
12:42 pm
either the senate or house to do this so he's been speaking out including on "morning joe." take a listen to the governor. >> let's just hope that party politics doesn't rule the day here and let's hope that one of these republicans will decide to do the right thing. we need to leave the medicine to doctors and the decisions to women. >> reporter: the governor also said he's worried that women will, quote, die if this bill goes into effect. meanwhile, there are protests happening right now outside the north carolina capitol. activists say they're protesting the bill, against it but also against anti-lgbtq and gun laws that are going through the state legislature, they say calling this the we are the supermajority rally, zinhle. >> all right, yamiche, thank you so much. coming up for us, where the cdc is tracking new cases of the disease formerly known as monkeypox and what doctors want you to know about it watching "nbc news daily." streaming free 24/7 on nbc

12:46 pm
outbreak. joining us now medical distribute dr. natalie azar. good to see you. doctors confirmed 13 reported or probable cases so we're not talking about a lot of mpox to public health officials in chicago. what do we know about these cases and it's coming after they said we don't need to really worry about this anymore. >> i know. well, kate, it's a little analogous to no longer declaring the covid pandemic a global health emergency but that doesn't mean that the infections have gone away and that's basically what happened here. so of these 13 individuals, we know that none of them was sick enough to be hospitalized. nine of them, we know, had two doses of the vaccine and i think that that's excellent news and i think that should be interpreted as the vaccines will help keep these people out of the hospital and not having severe diseases. all the cases were in men and all men had typical symptoms. >> but people hear the vaccine part, that nine of them were previously vaccinated against
12:47 pm
mpox and wonder does that mean the vaccine isn't effective? >> so we know that the vaccine is actually very, very effective, so individuals who have not had either dose of the vaccine are ten times more likely to be infected and if you've had one dose of the vaccine it is a two-dose series, then you're 7 1/2 times more likely to be effective. it's not 100% and the thing that we also don't know at this juncture is how long protection lasts. i don't actually think that we have a lot of good studies the way we did with the covid vaccine following people out, you know, week to week and month to month but just like the flu shot, right, it only last, you know one season so i think as we're gathering this information there very well might come a recommendation to do a booster but as of now two doses is what is recommended for individuals at high risk and no booster because, again, it's keeping people from being hospitalized and hopefully helping severe
12:48 pm
disease. >> we don't know how many would have gotten sick but had the vaccine and it prevented it. can you remind us how it spreads, the symptoms and what are the best ways to protect yourself. >> again, the number one way to protect yourself if you are at a high risk individual, again, is to be vaccinated and obviously to ask partners about any potential, you know, skin lesions or rashes so the classic presentation is, of course, these blistering painful rashes, people definitely get, you know, what we call a viral syndrome, fevers, chills, swollen lymph nodes, emption haugs and headache and it is skin-to-skin contact, kate, is the way that virus is stance submitted between people. >> doctor, great to see you. there's a new therapy program helping to improve the lives of stroke patients who suffer from afacial ya, a disorder that affects how people communicate. lauren petty with our nbc station in chicago explains.
12:49 pm
>> read it. >> reporter: eric struggled with his speech after a stroke. >> it made it difficult to find words. to put a sentence together. >> reporter: an anesthesiologist dr. werner had become the patient. >> that inability to communicate can be devastating? >> they become i think isolated because they feel bad about it. >> card game. >> cards. how many other people would say card games? >> reporter: he joined group therapy at the northwestern medicine aphasia center. >> there's a lot more understanding and empathy in that setting. >> let's go around and talk about it. what's everyone thoughts? >> reporter: michele runs the sessions. >> they all get it and can
