the u.s. so far this year. the archive defines a mass shooting at any incident where four or more people are shot >> just devastating weekend, gabe thank you so much. we turn to the 2024 presidential race. it has been a busy holiday weekend on the campaign trail, including the first rally of president biden's re-election bid. meanwhile, some republican candidates are sharpening their attacks on mr. biden and the gop front-runner, donald trump garrett haake joins us from washington with that story good morning. >> reporter: good morning to you. it was a busy weekend indeed a little over 500 days to go until election day and some democrats are breathing a sigh of relief that president biden's re-election campaign ramping up over the course of the weekend this as donald trump continues to consolidate support on the republican side despite attacks from some rivals and his mounting legal challenges. president biden kicking off his re-election campaign in philadelphia

>> hello, organized labor! >> reporter: rallying union workers, the president pointing to progress on the economy >> we created 13 million new jobs since i became president. >> reporter: still, the president is facing political headwinds as he campaigns for a second term with a recent poll showing mr. biden with a narrow four-point lead over former president donald trump in a possible 2020 rematch. mr. trump remains the overwhelming republican front-runner, nearly a week after pleading not guilty to 37 federal criminal charges tied to his lhandling of classified material at mar-a-lago some of his gop rivals suggested they would pardon the farmer president if he's convicted. but mr. trump's former vice president mike pence telling chuck todd such discussions are premature. >> i don't know why some of my competitors in the republican primary presume the president will be found guilty look, all we know is what the president has been accused of in the indictment

we don't know what his defense is we don't know if this will even go to trial. >> reporter: other republican candidates are sharpening their attacks on mr. trump especially former new jersey governor chris christie, arguing republicans will go down to defeat if the former president is the party's 2024 nominee. a message he says he'll deliver in the gop debates >> i will do what i need to do to be up on that stage to try to save my party, and save my country from going down the road of being led by three-time loser donald trump >> reporter: echoed by florida governor ron desantis, who argues the gop must move on from mr. trump without mentioning his name >> we have developed a culture of losing in this party where we had three successive elections with substandard results >> reporter: now the big focus on the campaign trail for the rest of this week isn't so much campaigning as it is raising money. the first lady, the vice president, and the president all fanning out across the country for high dollar fund-raisers

this week with president biden headed first to california today. >> garrett haake in washington, thank you. also this morning, there is welcome news for drivers coping with a travel nightmare in the wake of last week's fiery collapse on i-95 in philadelphia officials moving up to the timeline for the initial wave of repairs to one of the busiest stretches of the road in the country. nbc's george solis is on the scene with an update for us. good morning to you. >> reporter: good morning, kristen. this 24/7 operation kicked into high gear with the promise for pennsylvania governor josh shapiro that this stretch of i-95 would be opened within two weeks. the governor joined by president joe biden over the weekend here in philadelphia who says there is no more important project going on right now >> this morning, the race to get traffic moving on one of the nation's major northeast highways is on >> i can state with confidence that we will have i-95 reopened within the next two weeks.

>> reporter: over the weekend, pennsylvania governor josh shapiro vowing to get the job done in record time. the incredible pace coming just over a week since a crucial stretch of interstate 95 in philadelphia collapsed after authorities say a tractor trailer hauling more than 8500 gallons of gas flipped over an off ramp and caught fire the resulting explosion causing the northbound lanes to buckle, and damaged the southbound lanes beyond repair. the initial estimate to reopen the road was months. now -- >> we're getting it done here in philly >> reporter: the governor making the stunning announcement alongside president joe biden who took a helicopter tour of the site during a campaign stop. >> there is no more important project right now in the country as far as i'm concerned. >> reporter: crews have been working around the clock to demolish and begin to rebuild the interstate with the plan for now to build six temporary lanes. this past week, the pennsylvania department of transportation

also launched a 24/7 live stream of repairs with thousands tuning in daily >> traffic be bad. so you got to get to work. i got to leave an hour earlier. >> reporter: an estimated 160,000 vehicles travel this stretch of highway daily, including more than 14,000 trucks according to transportation officials the urgency also fueled by concerns, lengthy detours could impact the supply chain. and to ease some of the traffic concerns, officials have added extra cars to commuter trains and made parking free at some mass transit lots. the federal government has already pumped several millions into this rebuild project. but we know costs are only expected to soar kristen? >> george solis, george, thanks so much for that. all right, let us check in with dylan once again, coming up on 7:18. heavy rain. >> we will see heavy rain across parts of the appalachians today and the chance of severe storms down through georgia, through the panhandle of florida, especially where we could see several inches of rain looks pretty nice in the northeast. it is hot and sunny through the middle of the country.

happen it looked like it. yeah it hit the other plane >> reporter: rick frederickson and his 11-year-old son daniel were onboard the united flight bound for newark when they saw the two planes inching closer. >> i felt a thump that didn't seem right like as soon as you felt it. >> it was a little shocking. everyone didn't know what was going on, and they were like, what happened? what happened? >> reporter: emergency crews quickly arrived and the planes were towed back to their gates the airlines say passengers were booked on new flights and there were no reported injuries. according to the faa, the two aircrafts have been waiting on the runway. >> there is no one outside to direct you it is up to the pilots to make sure their wing clearance is not going to hit anything. sometimes that can be difficult. >> reporter: friday's incident just the latest of a string of close calls. last week a near miss in minneapolis after the faa says an air traffic controller cleared a flight to depart from

runway 30 left but then cleared an american airlines plane to land on that same runway. realizing the mistake, the controller ordered the american flight to go around. >> i thought you were going on the right side, sir. >> you said left side. sorry. >> turn left, heading 280. >> reporter: but the american plane ended up flying directly above the delta aircraft that was sitting on the runway. federal authorities are investigating that incident, too. >> again, sam, so many incidents over the last few months here. what is being done to try to prevent these close calls from continuing to happen >> reporter: so, craig, the faa back in march called for a nationwide safety summit that ended up earmarking some $100 million to 12 airports across the country to try to cut down on these runway incursions that includes here at mia which received $6 million. the agency says what they're doing is reconfiguring taxi ways that might be confusing or

adding lighting to airfields the faa says they are on track this year to hire some 1,500 controllers. so far since march, they have cut down on incursions by half however, craig, it is still one every three weeks, give or take. >> sam brock for us there. thank you. another troubling story we're following this morning, we're learning more about a fatal bear encounter in arizona. a black bear killed a man sitting on his rural property in what appears to be an unprovoked attack nbc national correspondent miguel almaguer has more on this story. miguel, good morning to you. >> reporter: the horrifying attack shocked the community and authorities who say fatal bear attacks are incredibly rare. now an investigation is underway to try to determine what exactly caused the deadly encounter. >> rp reporting that the neighbor was being attacked by a bear. >> reporter: in what's being described as a vicious, unprovoked attack, authorities say on friday in this rural area

of northern arizona, an adult male black bear mauled a 66-year-old man to death witnesses telling sheriff deputies, steven jackson was having a cup of coffee on his property where he had begun building a cabin when the bear approached him and attacked. jackson's screams heard by neighbors who tried to distract the bear and stop the brutal scene. >> there was honking horns, different things they were doing. there was no success in stopping the attack >> reporter: the bear dragged jackson about 75 yards down a nearby hill before one neighbor arrived with a rifle >> the bear has been shot. >> the bear is down. i have visual on it. it's not moving. >> reporter: the neighbor killed the bear, but it was too late for jackson, who died from his injuries >> nothing jumped out at us as being obvious of why this occurred or what brought the bear to this location. this attack appears to be predatory in nature. >> reporter: adult male black bears can weigh up to 600 pounds despite their intimidating size,

attacks are incredibly rare with about 300,000 living in the u.s., there is only about one fatal attack per year. experts think the animal involved in this fatal run-in may have been in search or food or felt it needed to protect its surroundings. >> it could be this terrible situation where the man, unbeknownst to him was building territory in the bear's territory and the bear was trying to defend that. >> reporter: now with summer approaching, encounters may become more common as bears awake from hibernation and roam for food and humans head outdoors experts say black bears are actually the least aggressive species, which adds to the mystery of why this one may have attacked still, if you find yourself being approached by a bear, it is best to back away slowly, make yourself appear larger and louder and try to scare it away. >> good tips miguel, thank you so much. that's a tough one. >> scary stuff i got a good one for you

not work out today the u.s. desire to restore the long practice of direct military to military communications to keep peace when incidents and close calls could turn dangerous. >> i think it's absolutely vital that we have these kind of communications military-to-military that imperative, i think, was only underscored by recent incidents that we saw in the air and on the seas. and at this moment, china has not agreed to move forward with that i think that's an issue that we have to keep working on. >> reporter: blinken says other u.s. officials will head to china to continue these talks in the coming weeks on a range of issues from taiwan to human rights, russia's war and trade craig? >> kelly o'donnell from the white house. kelly o., thank you. there was no break from the severe and deadly weather. check it out tornadoes were reported in nine states, including one that caused serious property damage

in mississippi thunderstorms caused flash flooding and left hundreds of thousands without power. the week begins with heavy rain fall in florida and more of the record breaking heat in the south. and dylan's tracking it all. dylan? >> good morning, guys. we have severe storms to watch out for this morning they will continue throughout the day. back through hattiesburg, through mississippi now, we have that severe thunderstorm warning and some tornado warnings still in effect. then you move east through eastern alabama into parts of the panhandle of florida where we have torrential downpours, and also the threat of large hail, damaging winds and isolated tornadoes still available in this area here. besides the severe storms, we also have extreme heat, especially down through texas where we are going to be close to record-breaking temperatures, even breaking the records in some temperatures. 107 the forecast today del rio 111. the old record was 106 it will stay hot going into tomorrow

waco, forecast of 103. the humidity makes it feel like it is above 110 degrees. wichita falls will feel like 104 degrees. the record is 106. this heat will stick around all week long and through the upcoming weekend, so it will be a long go with these hot temperatures. >> hot indeed. thanks so much. now to a country taking quick action to address gun violence after a pair of rare mass shootings last month. nbc's chief foreign corresponden richard engel tells us about the steps serbia is taking to loosen the nation's grip on guns. this is fascinating. good morning. >> good morning. i think a lot of americans will be particularly interested in this story last month there were these two extremely rare mass shootings in serbia, and they caused a moment of reflection across the entire country. it was a what has become of us type moment and it inspired serbs to completely change their relationship with guns

serbians didn't see it coming. yes, they have a lot of guns in this country the third most per capita after the united states and yemen. but they have never been used like this before on may 3rd, a 13-year-old boy, for reasons still unclear, stormed into a school with two of his father's guns and a hit list and killed eight classmates the next day, a man in his 20s with a history of violence opened fire in a village, killing eight more but then came more than thoughts and prayers. outrage became action. tens of thousands demanded not just tighter gun controls, but a reorientation of society away from violence, a reaction against armed rage. >> i think a lot of us have just had enough, and now it is a make or break moment. >> reporter: his nine-year-old daughter was in the school when the 13-year-old boy went on a killing spree. what would you say to americans who have been through this and

see no change. >> i would say to them safeguard your democracy, if you still have it, and mobilize and act. >> reporter: within weeks of the shootings here, new laws were introduced, and old ones enforced now all existing gun permits are under review all sales of new guns of any type are banned for two years. gun owners must submit to in person psychological and background checks. and owning an illegal gun is punishable by up to 15 years in prison many serbs are deciding being armed isn't worth the risk or hassle and are turning in their guns voluntarily there is lots of aks and assault rifles. there are 70,000 guns in this police warehouse, surrendered under a no questions asked amnesty. the deputy interior minister says this is only the start. he wants to take 90% of guns off

the streets soon what do you think when you see all of this? >> i see lives saved i see children's lives saved i see better safety for society, he said. >> reporter: serbia is deeply divided politically. overpopulism, abortion and gender identity. but overhauling gun laws was universally popular. he is an opposition politician there is outrage every time there was one of these shooting in the united states, every time but very little is done about it why is it, do you think, you were able to cross political divides? >> i would say the one, the big condition for that is we are not having these big gun lobbies and the big industry, which is behind it. >> reporter: there were more than 300 mass shootings in the united states so far this year in serbia, two were more than enough to bring change and, frankly, it wasn't that difficult. jacob? >> richard, thanks

it is so shocking to see the 70,000 guns that were turned in there. this is getting a lot of people in the u.s. thinking about what we could learn from serbia as well. >> the speed with which they mobilized there is just telling. >> yeah. you got to check out this next story two young brothers at a red sox/yankees game a roller coaster of emotions ultimately leads to a happy ending but yankees outfielder hits a foul ball into the stands at fenway park. a red sox fan catches that ball. then he turns around you see him turn around there and give it to a little kid sitting behind him that young boston fan proceeds to throw the ball on that field. that did not sit well with his older brother. check out his older brother's reaction. >> oh, no. the little bro ruined the moment. >> little bro threw the ball back oh no! >> are you kidding me? oh, did you see big bro? oh, no >> he is beside himself.

>> i feel it i feel that pain. >> so the older brother has a meltdown, which leads to the younger brother having a meltdown dad gets caught in the middle. fortunately, though, someone from the red sox staff saw what went down and they brought big brother a game ball and an autographed jersey if you are wondering what happened to the little brother there, apparently dad took him out for a little walk around the stadium to give the big brother a little time to cool off. >> go ahead. >> just that that dad deserves an award i think it is the father's day award. >> he did the right thing. when you get a ball from the opposing team in the outfield, you throw it back. >> you throw it back, yeah. >> let's set the record straight here, guys still ahead, some major upsets to discuss in today's first ever ice cream truck bracket. >> looking forward to that first, though, we will take you to charleston, south

the great migration and the civil rights movement. contributes in the arts and sciences and every other field of american life >> this is a living, vibrant, breathing culture. >> reporter: a powerful component of this new museum will be the center for family history. the center will offer a team genealogist to help people of any background to help uncover their family history dr. shelly murphy heads up the center what is the hardest part of sort of finding out where you are from, who your people are and how you got here >> if we're talking specifically african american, there is a lot of challenges. number one challenge is could be a first name only. number two, the records we might not have access to them because they could be with the plantation owner's family. >> reporter: dr. murphy says it can be difficult to find the branches of a family tree that date back to the slave era, but not impossible she helped me using census records and documents from a slave-owning family.

>> john h. livingston is white okay and this will is dated november 7th, 1849. >> okay. >> so a lot of times, if it is a slave owner, he's gonna hand out or divvy out the enslaved people what's interesting with john h. livingston is that he handed out family groupings to his children. >> reporter: so families of enslaved people. >> that is your line and who owned them and in his will where he's divvying them up. >> reporter: so my great, great, great. >> it's three. >> reporter: were enslaved. >> yes. >> reporter: that wasn't that long ago. >> no, no. >> reporter: but this is the man who would have owned my great, great, great grandpa >> yes. >> reporter: thank you for this. these are details i always hoped

to learn, the story of my family and that of more then 40 million people like me many of those stories started here in charleston, and they're still being written. when folks come and experience this museum, what do you hope that they take away from it? >> african americans simultaneously hold trauma and joy. not trauma on tuesday and joy on thursday it is woven in there together. so i'm hoping that folks get that yeah, there's real sadness here, but there's also real triumph. >> it really is a complete museum in that regard. it is not just a look at slavery in history. >> what was that moment like when you saw the name of the family that owned your ancestors? >> it was -- yes, it was moving, to say the least you know, we had suspected through oral history in my family, we had suspected that we came in around charleston.

be dirty words. >> we're doing the complete opposite it took us three years and we spent three times our budget on it. >> we are buying this house to save it, restore it. we also wanted to show people, this is how you can renovate a house in the city and still give it so much character, so much soul. >> all right check this out they just recently closed on another property and they're planning to renovate is using recycled materials they're coming out with a book, you knew this was coming it features their sustainable designs. it will show people how to turn things into home decor and furniture. i have a feeling we all have that stuff. >> it's going to inspire a lot of people. >> i'm going to turn this into something. >> all right great stuff. well, coming up next, from baseball to bowling, camping to community pools, vicky is sharing new ways to save wherever you are headed this summer but first, this is "today" on

nbc.

estamos de vuelta, nos series "today summer savings". >> it seems like everything is more expensive these days. >> vicky is here to help us have fun without breaking the bank. so let's start with camping. a lot of folks want to get outside this time of year, enjoy mother nature. the thing about camping is it can get expensive quickly. >> exactly exploring the great outdoors is the best way to enjoy your family, but you don't want to spend a fortune on tents and gear either buy it secondhand, borrow from neighbors they are happy to lend this stuff to you and stores like rei also sell this stuff secondhand or you can rent it. i love this tip about visiting state parks.

if you can't get into the national parks, they're going to the state parks, for example, here in new york for $80, $72 actually, you can get the empire pass and you get admission to all the state parks for the whole season make sure when you get there, you are renting the paddle boards, the kayaks because it is much cheaper and free cam sites.net is a great website. it is based on maps, and it will tell you the free camp sites. not just for tents, but rvs and campers. >> obviously we're headed for some hot days, so if you want to cool off, how can you do that? >> maximize your beach weekend, kristen. that means getting there early on a saturday. if you can't get early check-in at the hotel, that's okay. give them your bags. take out your tote with your bathing suit and umbrella and spend a full day at the beach. go back, sleep there, next day check out early. you can leave your bags at the hotel. spend that whole day there, then get your stuff and leave state parks with late beaches as well look, maybe you are not going to get out to the ocean, but there are a lot of big lakes that

still have sandy shores and give you that wave-like experience as well then think about your community and city pools those are free to the public, and there are many of them, and they're open all summer long the rec center, this is something you can buy a season pass for you get the amenities too, like the gym, the ping-pong, all the other things that your kids like finally, let's say you are traveling in june or july. you want to hang out in august you can get a discounted pass at the end of the summer, too >> i've got a few kids you start traveling with all your kids, it gets expensive fast. >> major league baseball, craig, a great place. it is america's past time for a reason, right? the chicago white sox, for $19 a ticket, this is the upper deck, that includes a hot dog, chips and a drink. you could just go there just for lunch and you don't have to watch the game

it is such a great deal. the pittsburgh pirates have a deal $12 you can use towards concessions. that's fantastic fruit picking is cheaper than buying your fruit at the farmer's market. >> there is nothing more fun than fruit picking. >> you have got strawberries, blueberries, raspberries those are all in season right now. get home and make the cobbler. the kids are more likely to eat something they put hard work into these are part of the national park system. if you are in the military, free pass if you are a senior discounted pass regular person, 80 bucks if you have a fourth grader in your family, they get that free as well because i think they're studying national parks in fourth grade or something, but it is incredible you get to go in don't have to pay the parking free up to three other people get to go in with you for free. off season trips in new york city, no one empties out in august. this is a good time to visit the city and then finally, there is these two websites a lot of people have heard of them the famous story

you know tiffany haddish took will smith and jada pinkett smith on a trip. they didn't realize they would be on a little bus. >> i heard this story. >> groupon and certificate is another site. you can search by activity or geography. >> finally for those rainy days, what can we do >> yes the first thing you want to do on a rainy day, museums and your monuments. obviously, there are free museum days free days to visit monuments as well movie theater deals tuesday. this one, factorytoursusa.com, check it out there is a jelly belly factory in california. lots of factories around it is so fun to see how things are made a wholesome activity for the whole family and kidsbowlfree.com you get the bowling games for free, rent the shoes >> we love bowling love bowling vicky, thank you

the food and culture that surrounds it. >> blayne alexander joins us from atlanta with this incredible story good morning tell us about it. >> reporter: good morning to you. this was a lot of fun. juneteenth celebrations can take on many different forms, but food is right at the heart it's not so people with brag about who has the best mac and cheese recipe. the history is as rich as the holiday itself at this bar and grill in jonesboro, georgia, there is something special in the air >> fried asparagus. you never had nothing like it before >> reporter: if the smell doesn't entice you, just take one bite >> i feel the love in this >> reporter: at 42, the founder and owner is relatively new to the restaurant business, but her food is generations in the making so when people come into your restaurant and try your food, they're tasting your mom's

recipes, your grandma's recipes. >> oh, absolutely. my recipe comes from my grandmother. the fried chicken comes from my mother we would be in there doing chicken on sundays after church. >> reporter: it makes soul food a staple in american cuisine almost any american food you taste, depending how it is prepared, it has a little soul in it, right >> it does some of these cooking experiences and the different dishes, they go back to the slave times. when you look at the notable chefs in this country, they were black chefs. >> reporter: black chefs often face a steeper climb in the restaurant industry. warren helped foun black restaurant week, a way to showcase black cuisine and its rich history. >> when you look at someone like hercules, who was george washington's chef, he was one of the first traditional chefs in this country when you look at barbecue, it is a combination of african cooking techniques, indigenous cooking

techniques as well as european cooking techniques slaves were some of the best picked cooks in the south. >> reporter: there are so many foods that are delicacies today, but they came about because slaves really had no other options. >> we had no other options that's really where soul food came from. it came from taking the scraps and making something out of it something like ox tails that is so expensive now used to be known as a scrap but it has become a world favorite. >> reporter: it's why when we celebrate that unflinching spirit on juneteenth, food is often right at the center. >> the red has always represented the joy and the resilience of the people, of the slaves, freedom. so watermelons, strawberries, fruit punch. >> reporter: it is stunning you say watermelon because it has a negative connotation when you think about how black people are portrayed. >> when you understand

watermelon has a history of over 5,000 years, that it comes from africa >> reporter: that's why here at nuvo, she is taking her carefully curated juneteenth spread out into the community. free meals with some extra meaning on the side. so when people come into your restaurant and they take a bite of your food, what do you want them to taste? >> the love that's put into it that behind the people that's inside of those kitchens that are working so hard is that every dish is made with love it comes from the heart. >> reporter: and there was certainly a lot of love in that food i tasted it in every single bite mind you, i took a lot of bites. if you are interested, black restaurant week kicks off today in the new york area it is lasting until july 2nd, but it's expanded to 15 cities around the country you can go online to find out when it hits your city the bottom line, today on juneteenth, go out, celebrate and eat well.
