looming this morning for former president trump's legal team his lawyers have until 5:00 p.m. to respond from a request from the justice department special counsel that could force him to stay silent about evidence in the january 6th case nbc's brie jackson is in d.c. with the latest. bro, good morning. the former president kept the case front and center on the campaign trail >> that's right. good morning, frances. former president trump called the most recent indictment against him outrageous during a fundraising event in south carolina over the weekend, he also lashed out at special counsel jack smith, calling him a maniac and yesterday morning, he went after the judge oversee:00 his 2020 election interference case, writing there is no way i can get a fair trial adding, quote, we will be immediately asking for recusal of this judge. that judge set today's deadline mr. trump's legal team needs to respond by 5:00 p.m. to requests from the special counsel to block him from commenting

publicly on parts of the case. prosecutors warn that he could use evidence in a way that may have a chilling effect on witnesses, citing a social media post where he warns, if you go after me, i'm coming after you his defense attorney john lauro made the rounds on tv saying they're going to oppose the request. he is also refuting the indictments claim that his client ordered former vice president mike pence to overturn the 202010 election results on january 6th. pence contradicting that take. >> what former frump did is not ask direct. >> in the days before, the president was talking about us rejecting votes. then late in the process, his lawyers suggested that we return votes to the states, but frankly, the day before january 6th, if memory serves, they came

back, his lawyers did and said we want you to reject votes outright they were asking me to overturn the election i had no right to overturn the election >> and pence also repeated his criticism against trump saying anyone who puts himself over the constitution should never be president of the united states the former vp, who is now running for president himself says that he is not ruling out testifying in this case, if compelled. frances? >> okay, brie, thank you and a quick programing note. our nbc news exclusive interview tonight with florida governor ron desantis and his wife casey on "nightly news." news we're following, breaking news. three people have died after two firefighting helicopters collided in midair while battling a fire in cabazon, california sunday evening. one chopper safely landed, but that other one ended up crashing after the collision. during a press conference, fire officials say that the victims

included a cal fire division chief, a fire captain and a pilot. that crash sparked a four acre fire that was quickly extinguished the ntsb has joined the investigation into finding out the initial cause of that crash. . turning now to one of the biggest cyber security breaches in health care for quite some time, forcing hospitals and clinics across the country to cancel surgeries and treatments last week. dana griffin has the latest. >> reporter: it's the latest cyber attack on hospitals this year prospect medical holdings, which owns more than 170 medical facilities in california, pennsylvania, rhode island, and connecticut says it took its national computer systems offline thursday after discovering the ransomware attack in a statement saying we are focused on addressing the pressing needs of our patients as we work diligently to return to normal operations as quickly as possible. the attack is forcing doctors and nurses to use pin and paper instead of computers

some outpatient facilities have closed, and some effective surgeries canceled student nurse eduardo says he works at one of the affected hospitals. >> it's a whole commotion, going back to the start again. something we could do two or three minutes on a c computer is taking forever now >> reporter: the fbi is now investigating. >> i'm concerned about being able to see my doctor and getting the updated lab reports. >> reporter: the prospect hack is one of about 275 cyber attacks on u.s. health care organizations this year. according to john regi with the american hospital association, he says the recovery process can often take weeks and disruptions can delay health care. >> think about it. as ambulances may be diverted carrying stroke, heart attack, or trauma patients, that certainly increases the risk of a negative outcome. >> reporter: these increasing attacks have also impacted local government, schools, and businesses as hackers hold systems hostage, demanding payment to make them accessible

again. and when hospitals are attacked, lives are threatened >> and our thanks to dana for that report. the latest on ukraine takes us to saudi arabia this morning, which hosted a peace summit for ukraine over the weekend and there was some surprising movement on the diplomatic front there. china joined the talks, signaling a possible new approach to moscow the communist party is reported to be in support of a third round of talks it's an effort to finalize a ten-point peace plan that's been endorsed by kyiv but not yet by the kremlin. over the weekend the summit hosted 40 countries, excluding russia china's envoy for special affairs attended after previously boycotting the ukraine peace meetings back in the u.s., four u.s. navy ships responded to a dozen chinese and russian military vessels that were patrolling off of alaska. they appear to be operating

together this is just the latest close call between the u.s., chinese and russian militaries nbc's aaron gilchrist has the details. >> reporter: it is called an incursion and happened here near the aleutian islands of alaska 11 military ships from russia and china patrolling the waters according to a statement from both alaska senators adding four american navy destroyers were sentnt to shadow them until they leftft the area. what is the u.s. signaling to russia and china by putting destroyers in the water near their exercises >> well, i think it was, again, an attempt to countersignal that we are aware of their presence and have military power in the region >> reporter: the patrol never entered u.s. waters according to u.s. northern command, confirming to nbc news that air and sea assets conducted operations to ensure the defense of the united states and canada. it is the latest aggressive maneuver by the chinese military after this close call between chinese and american war ships in june in the taiwan strait and this chinese war plane dangerously close to an american

military plane in may. last month lester holt visited norad in alaska where a top general there warned alaska was on the front lines. >> any threats coming from russia, china, that part of the world, into america, they are first going to cross into alaska air space. this is kind of the front lines for america and canada. >> reporter: alaska senators renewing calls for increased investment in military power in alaska. >> and our thanks to aaron for that report. and alaska is also dealing with record flooding near the state's capitol, and officials have to declare an emergency there after part of the glacier broke along a lake video captured the moment a house, wow, collapsed into the rushing water. the mendenhall river rose to a record level of nearly 15 feet several other homes and other debris, including trees as we see there fell in as well. some residents were already under evacuation orders due to those rising floodwaters
