my co-anchor kate snow is off today. "nbc news daily" starts right now. today, wednesday, august 28, 2024. indicted again. former president donald trump faces a revised federal indictment for allegedly trying to overturn results of the 2020 election. why he was reindicted and how the former president is reacting. breaking news. the man who attempted to assassinate former president trump. the information the shooter searched for before opening fire at the butler rally. house of horrors. mold, mice, roaches and groundwater, disturbing new photos appear to show subpar living conditions on some u.s. military bases. what the group behind the images wants to see from the pentagon in an nbc news exclusive. and one happy family. it's no secret. being a parent can be stressful.

now the nation's top before is warning those stress levels have reached a critical level. surgeon general, joining us live to explain why now and what we can all do to fix it. definitely stick around for that conversation. we are going to start this hour with new development in the legal troubles facing former president donald trump. the republican candidate for president is dealing with a revised indictment for his alleged efforts to overturn the 2020 election. the new indictment comes almost two months after the consequential and controversial decision from the supreme court ruling the former president is immune from prosecution for official acts taken while in office. this new indictment contains the same charges it's a the original but specific details of the accusations have been changed. in a string of social media posts trump called the new indictment shocking and part of an attempt to interfere in the

election. joining us, ken, start with you. when does the new indictment differ and how from the original one? >> reporter: pared down from 45 to 36. an effort die jack smith to comply with the supreme court's decision holding that presidents can not be prosecuted for official acts while in office. so anyone that jack smith felt could be construed as an official act he's now removed from the original indictment, and principally the main thing he removed was a whole section that described donald trump asking and exhorting pressuring his justice department to investigate and proclaim bogus allegations of fraud in the election. the supreme court clearly said that was an official act. that section is gone. smith reframed other aspects of the indictment. taken out references to donald trump speaking with aides in the oval office. what he's kept in, though,

donald trump's exhortations on state officials regarding fraud in the election and where donald trump then pressured then vice president mike pence to slow down the certification of electoral votes. the theory that mike pence was not acting as vice president while he did that. acting as president of the senate and donald trump was not acting as president. acting as a presidential candidate. hotly disputeed by president trump's lawyers. this whole thing litigated before judge chutkan. >> thanks. danny, bring you in. how fast could the case move now that we have a new indictment? stalled when the supreme court considered that presidential immunity case. it's not lost. trump is currently on the campaign trail. could he leave to be in court? >> not necessarily for arraignment. anytime the government supersedes and indictment, government has to come back in

for a new aramt, but jack smith is not looking to bring trump in for that arraignment. a little unusual but this is an unusual case. streamline it? probably. think about it, some of the allegations, for example, as to trump co-opting the doj to serve his campaign purposes, that was always going to get thrown out. whether jack smith did it on his end by superseding the indictment or waited around for a court do it. little doubt. because the supreme court explicitly said these are the kinds of things you cannot charge the president for. however, as ken pointed out, they are leaving in some of the stuff that's in that gray area. so the government is feeling pretty confident that they have allegations that will survive. >> okay. danny, while i have you, switching eang news from the su court. not going to lift a pause on the biden administration student loan forgiveness program. walk us through what happens next year? of course, been in legal limbo. >> this is one of those

injunctions on top of injunctions cases. in other words, gotten up to the supreme court to dispute not the underlying facts, not core issues, rather what do we do while we wait for the case to resolve? we have a word "injunction." preserve status quo. say to the court, preserve things the way they are until we resolve this. that's really what this fighting is about. now what happens the case goes back and they actually litigate it on the merits. >> all right. danny savalas. appreciate it. thanks. we are following breaking news. fbi released new details about the man who tried to assassinate former president donald trump. you remember trump carried off the stage by secret service agents after a 20-year-old gunman opened fire at a rally in butler, pennsylvania, last month. nbc news justice reporter ryan rilesy following these new developments. ryan, i understand fbi officials briefed reporters and released new pictures from their investigation. what did you learn?

>> reporter: yeah. essentially the fbi laid out that the individual who tried to assassinate former fred trump, thomas crooks, appeared to be searching for some sort of target he could go after. it wasn't necessarily trump that he was aimed after and appears that this trump event was sort of an opportunity for him. actually on july 5th he apparently googled when the rnc and when the dnc were going to take place suggesting he was considering targeting those events, but what ended up happening, lo and behold this fell into his lap. a trump event announced in early july as he was already trying to figure out what to target and right near his house. sort of how this came out. the fbi also released some images you're seeing on the screen now including the gun. including the trunk and also an image of the air conditioning unit that crooks apparently used to get up on that roof. seeing it on the screen now.

not that tough to get up there and obviously the secret service is facing a lot of questions whether there was an actual man on that roof making sure no one could get up and get that strategic viewpoint over the site when donald trump was speaking. >> interesting developments. waiting to learn more about the motive, a better sense of timeline is important. what's next in the investigation? >> reporter: the fbi is focused more on the motive than the shooter. separate investigations are happening simultaneously. one from congress obviously. already seen head of the secret service resign, and numerous officials placed on leave as this investigation continues, but you'll see more i think investigations unfolding from the department of homeland security. inspector general and congress looking at accountability for what happened that day and failures of law enforcement in the leadup to that shooting. >> ryan reilly, thanks so much. and now to an nbc news exclusive on a look at living conditions at some u.s. military bases around the world that

advocacy call unsanitary even dangerous. the group pots and cots leading the effort shared photos exclusively with nbc news. showing mold, mice, roaches and groundwater in living areas and dining quarters. the group is calling on the pentagon to fix these issues now rather than wait years for planned renovations. joining me nbc news pentagon correspondent. what have you learned about images, living conditions, and how widespread the problem is? >> reporter: pictures are tough to look at knowing individuals are in the u.s. military living amongst these conditions. we do know that the bases included in many of these photos, there are more than just these ones showing. they're all over the world. they're various services, army, air force, marine corp., it's not at every base according to advocacy groups. that's not what they're focusing on here. it's exactly what you said.

they are calling on the military and the pentagon to not only address these issues but to do so in a much faster manner. this all started with a group called hots and cots, an app allowing family members to anonymously upload photos, reviews of housing, dining facilities on base and hopefully get information about any problems in the public much faster. with the goal of not only protecting the service members' identities and anonymity but getting it to their senior officers and enlisted to hopefully get adjudicated in a faster manner. what these groups are now calling for. that being said, this is not a new problem. the jao put out a report in september 20923 highlights some of these problems where hots and cots got the idea to put it in a more public forum. >> briefly, what's the

pentagon's response? >> reporter: arguing now create add new system for service members to report these sorts of problems. they say they have a moral obligation to ensure the space where is our service members and they're fe families live are healthy and functional and believe this new feedback system will provide an opportunity to report what's observed. >> important. appreciate it. >> reporter: thanks. time for today's cnbc "money minute." a fast food giant launching its biggest burger ever. kate rooney joins us. >> reporter: so at&t wireless is down for some customers yesterday, but the company saying the software issue causing the outage is fixed. the latest in a series of outages. announcing a $950,000 settlement for fileating fcc rules during an outage last summer and not able to handle 911 calls.

and caregivers. increased stress levels in parents compared to other u.s. adults. the advisory calls on government, businesses and communities to increase mental health resources for parents and names importance of national paid family and medical leave as well as a child tax credit. and joining us now bottom of the hour surgeon general vivek murn fi to talk about a new op-ed and initiative. thank you for being with us. i know you have spoken a lot a lot of initiatives. this om edd stood out because how personal it was. rote in the "new york times" the stress you dealt with when you became a father. talk to us about the worries and why you're issues this advisory right now? >> thanks so much. the issue of parenting is obviously very personal to me, as a dad myself, but parenting touches many of our lives whether parents or not. many know family members or friends who are parents and from

the outside it's sometimes hard to know the extent to which parents are struggling. when i began working with the mental health epidemic in our countries started having conversations with family ace cross america. not just kids are struggling. parents are struggling, too. half of parents in america, 48%, say that most days they are completely overwhelmed by the stress in their lives. that is a starting number. and it is not normal, by the way. we shouldn't accept that as a norm. harnts are struggling with loneliness at higher rates than other adults. particularly single parents. when you put these together, they really have profound impacts on mental health and well being of parents. >> to that end, 48% of parents feeling that stress. what do we need to do? >> one of the most important things, make a cultural shift.

essential for the well-being of society. parents are undertaking a really important job which is to help raise the next generation. we now know that the mental health of parents affects the mental health of kids. >> right. >> as a society we have a vested interest in caring for parents. that means taking action in terms of policy, programs and individual actions, and at a policy level, paid leave that allow parents to take time and be with a child when they're sick. provisions like making child care more affordable. making mental health care more accessible to parents. and finally, addressing the harms, for example, of social media which is a worry and a challenge for so many parents. parents to manage. some of the policy steps we've got to take. finally, workplaces consider we can also do more to make sure we have cultures and policies that support parents and provide them with, for example, predictable schedules so they can understand

how to balance work and home. >> doctor, talking about policies and it's not lost on me things like the child tax credit and paid parental leave have not been enacted into law. i wonder, what personally should parents do? what do you do could keep your stress couldn't given the nature of your job and role as parent? >> just say that despite being a doctor and having taken care of many patients over the year has not made me immune to stresses and strains of parenting. i've had many days i've felt exhausted or lost or uncertain how to manage some of the challenges that are coming up. i think in particular about at the time my daughter was really sick when she was 1 and in the hospital way severe leg infection that required an emergency surgery. and i felt just -- so worried, not just about her health. for which i was first and foremost. also kept going back thinking, did i miss something?

should i have figured this out earlier? could i have prevented her from going through this terrible experience? there are so many experiences, whether illness, managing technology and phones for your kids. trying to think what's the right balance between how much extracurriculars they need to be in. all of these parents doing so many different activities for their kids. on social media, the comparisons we get as parents can often feel we're not doing enough. i recommend for parents first and foremost recognize your well-being matters. investing and caring for yourself is not being selfish, it's not indulgent, it's necessary. realize you're not alone in feeling this way. many of us are struggling. finally, if you can reach out to other parents and be open about what you're dealing with, if you can ask for help from family and friends, you often find that there are more people willing to help than we may realize and also recognize that many other people are struggling. we're not alone.

>> absolutely. surgeon general, thank you for your vulnerability and sharing your story and joining us issues this public health alert. >> thank you so much. tomorrow kicks off the labor day holiday rush as many americans try to squeeze in one last trip before the unofficial end of summer. tsa is expecting an 8.5% jump from this time last year and te highest number this friday. joining me now nbc news correspondent trymaine lee at a bitty laguardia airport in new york. what should we expect to see this weekend at the airports? >> reporter: busy, busy, busy. not to time to play too loose arrival at the airport. 8.5% jump you mentioned tsa expects will likely push them to a record-breaking weekend from thursday to next wednesday. they plan on screening 17 million people. 2.8 million on friday alone at

a nighttime routine for z's. empty the trash. do the dishes, check the door locks, whatever. just do the same thing every night. this will begin to prepare our bodies and minds for sleep to follow. and when you're doing your routine, keep things calm. keep things quiet. teri and emerson both said proper lighting is key. if you have light bulbs that can change color. change them. move away from those bright blue daylight tones and toward dusky orange and yellow hues. also, go minimal in the bedroom. physical clutter equals mental clutter. if your mind races about tasks in the day ahead, just as you're trying to get into bed, teri says, don't worry. just write out a tomorrow to do list. just put it on paper. the old fashioned way, and then you'd be surprised kris how things look manageable. and that was chris chmura with a number of tips on how to get more sleep. really
