"nbc news daily" starts right now. march 4th, 2025. trading blows. the trump administration slaps

sweeping new tariffs on canada, mexico, and china and all three say they'll hit right back. what this could mean for the prices you pay. prime time speech. president trump will address congress and the nation just hours from now. what's at the top of the president's agenda? >> it's getting real. have you gotten your real id yet? time is running out. why you need one and what it will take to get it. >> and zach attack. mark-paul gosselaar gets candid with me about his iconic character, zach, saved by the bell. >> i think he was extremely dark. >> say more. >> he really was. >> okay. we're going to talk about his career plus his brand-new nbc show. it's called found. when he sits down for the drip. >> oh, i cannot wait for that. >> that got your attention, right? >> i am hooked. so stay with us. we are beginning to begin this hour with those growing concerns about a potential trade war and what it means for your money. >> president trump's new tariffs are now in effect. the u.s. putting 25% tariffs on

most products from mexico and canada, however, canadian emergency products like oil will face a lower 10% rate. the u.s. is also adding an additional 10% tariff on goods from china on top of the 10% tariff on chinese goods that was announced last month. >> canada and china have already announceretaliatory measures on the united states and mexico's president will announce response on sunday. >> it's not in my habit to agree with "the wall street journal," but donald, they point out that even though you're a very smart guy, this is a very dumb thing to do. >> strong words there. joining us now, nbc business and data correspondent, brian cheung. get all the reaction from this. remind us what the trump administration is hoping to

accomplish specifically with the economics on this. >> they describe this as a drug war, not a trade war. because they've been tieing negotiations over these tariffs with china, mexico, and canada to progress on the fentanyl crisis saying those three countries allegedly are the ones allowing fentanyl to get into this country and if they can resolve that and see the number of deaths go down in the u.s., the tariffs could go away. they don't see this right now because they put in place these tariffs on mexico, canada. these are likely going to lead to price increases for average americans even though we've heard scott bessant say we think china's going to pay for it but a lot of producers and companies we've been speaking to have said we're the ones that are going to have to foot the bill because we pay that and we'll have to pass it on to customers. >> that's the thg.

does china sosh it or pass it along. what are we talking about? what do economists think will go up in price? >> they've been projecting inflation will increase after this, but what's more impactful is that you have business owne, large businesses down the street from you likely that are opining on this as well. like brian cornell, the ceo of target. he was talking about the tariffs this morning. take a listen. >> we know for certain categories like fruits and vegetables where during this winter season, we depend on mexico for a significant amount of supply. those are categories where we'll try to protect pricing but the consumer will likely see price increases over the next couple of days. >> that's the target ceo telling their customers that we will likely have to raise prices. not just on things like electronics. he mentioned grocery prices. we import a lot of fruits and vegetables from mexico and grains and potatoes from canada.

these are very much real life impacting that we'll see from these tariffs. >> thanks so much. >> tariffs are sure to be a major topic in present trump's address tonight. >> it has been a fast-moving first 43 days in office. that's to say the least for president trump. and there are three topics we're closely watching for in his remarks. first, he ran on bringing prices down, but consumers aren't really feeling relief, least not yet. what will he say about the progress on that front. >> also, what will he have to say about the sweeping cuts to the federal government made by elon musk. and then there's foreign policy. certainly that's been top of mind since last week's explosive oval office clash between president trump and president zelenskyy. >> gabe gutierrez joins us now. what is the white house telling us about what we should expect to be the? >> reporter: well, fast-moving 43 days, indeed.

senior official tells us tonight's speech theme will be quote, renewal of the american dream. president trump will use it as an opportunity to highlight what he sees as the successes of his administration during these first 43 days. now, we expect to hear, as you mentioned, as your previous story suggests, tariffs. he will certainly bring that up, but we also expect to hear about what the administration views his success so far in slashing the federal government, which it believes it has a mandate after the election and we expect the president to point out the department of government efficiency, doge, and we're told that elon musk himself will be in attendance tonight as the president addresses a joint session of congress. also, another topic that we expect to hear from the president is illegal immigration. in fact, according to one senior administration official, that will make up about one eighth of his speech. we're told the president is expected to highlight that

illegal border crossings are down dramatically since he took office and he's also expected to push congress for more funding for his mass deportation plan. >> and gabe, let's talk ukraine because that's sure to come up tonight. the white house has paused all military aid going to the country as of last night. so what are we hearing from president zelenskyy today? >> well, we did hear from president zelenskyy overnight. he posted on social media essentially looking to come back to the negotiating table here. saying it was regrettable the meeting in washington on friday that it did not got the way it was supposed to be and president zelenskyy also saying that he was grateful for u.s. support. and what the trump administration has given him. still, he has not yet publicly apologized. earlier today, vice president vance said on capitol hill that isn't so much the public apology, but the behind the

scenes negotiations, outreach from ukraine that the white house has so far said has not come. but the big question right now, will this minerals deal that was supposed to be signed on friday, will that come to fruition at some point in the near future. at this point, we just don't have confirmation if it will or not. yesterday, president trump did say, however, that the minerals deal is not dead yet. >> certainly the whole world is watching here. gabe, thanks so much. be sure to join nbc news for complete coverage of president trump's address to congress and the democratic response. our special coverage begins at 8:00 p.m. eastern. 5:00 p.m. pacific on nbc news now and continues at 6 9:00 on your local nbc news station. parts of the u.s. are bracing for severe weather and the possibility of tornados. >> texas and new mexico are also dealing with a fire threat and parts of the rockies and upper midwest, blizzard conditions are

possible. this all comes as new orleans celebrates mardi gras today while the official closely monitor the storm that's closing in. bill karins is tracking that storm system. bill, what should folks around it had south be bracing for tonight? >> i know all eyes are on new orleans. so many people are there for the festivities. we had the line of storms that will move in about two to three hours from now. this morning, it was over dallas and we had a lot of problems with high winds. so far today, about 133 severe weather reports. only one tornado. no reports of fatalities. one active tornado warning in mississippi. until 7:00 p.m. this line of storms hasn't produced a lot of tornados but doesn't mean we couldn't get an isolated one on two. the line of storms is on i-10. so everything in new orleans is safe for another couple of hours. here's the area of concern for tonight. about 15 million people

included. we'll watch those storms go into mississippi next couple of hours then after sunset, into alabama. these hash lines, the atmosphere is favorable for another spinning for a strong tornado or twtwo. again, so far so good, but evening new orleans is in that risk. then this thing arrives on the east coast with a lot of wind problems as we go throughout the afternoon and morning tomorrow. that will cause a lot of airport problems across the coast. then as far as the cold side of this storm, and this may end up being worse than the severe side. we have blizzard warnings from des moines, omaha, and kansas city. expecting 50 to 70 mile per hour winds. these are areas that today have been near 60 degrees. then tonight, the temperature crashes. we're going to have people losing power because of the wind. it's not like they're going to get a ton of snow, but it's going to be blowing and drifting all over the place. this is quite a storm typical

for late winter and early springs. >> thank you. serena williams is making headlines in a new sport. >> and how many people watched the oscars? bertha coombs has more. >> serena williams is getting into basketball. the tempo, a new wnba expansion team announced monday that williams is joining the ownership group and added that williams will play an active role in the team's branding, including the design of its future jerseys. >> she's designed a lot of her own tennis outfits. >> her investment still needs final approval from the league. and 18 million people tuned in to the academy awards on sunday, citing nielsen data. host abc said there was an 8% drop from the year before, snapping a three-year streak of ratings growth for the oscars.

texas health officials have just announced another confirmed measles case as the outbreak there continues to spread and it's spreading across the country now. the state says there are 159 confirmed cases across nine counties in texas. that includes one child who died from the virus last week. as cases continue to spad, some doctors have growing concerns about the federal government's response to the state's growing outbreak. nbc news medical reporter erica edwards joins us now. what do we know about this latest case and how are health

officials trying to protect the public? >> so, officials on the ground in texas really aren't disclosing a lot of personal details about this new case, but what i can tell you is that nearly all cases so far have been in unvaccinated children. usually between the ages of 5 and 17, however,r, yesterday, t head of the texas department of health said that they are starting to see an increase in cases reported among its tinier kids between the ages of 0 and 4. and we know people are still getting sick enough to be hospitalized. 22 people have had to be admitted to the hospital. right now what people are doing on the ground is trying to get as many people tested as possible and trying to get as many people vaccinated as possible. even people who are unvaccinated can get the shot's protection if they've had an exposure to measles as long as it happened within about a 72-hour window. kate? >> i also want to ask about your

new reporting. you report that some doctors are weary of robert f. kennedy jr., the nation's top health official, and his response to this outbreak.. he also, secretary kennedy, also spoke out about the outbreak today. so talk to us about the skepticism he's facing and what he's saying. >> yeaeah, so deite what the secretary said during his confirmation hearings last month, he is not coming out to encourage or urge people to get mmr shots to try to combat this outbreak, which by the way, is predecessor did in 2019 in response to a smaller measles outbreak during the first trump administration. but what the secretary is touting right now is vitamin a. that's usually reserved for people with very low nutritn. not usually given to folks here in the u.s. doctors are concerned that the messages could, you know, prompt people to go out and up their

vitamin a levels without a doctor's consent. kate? >> erica, thanks. you likely have not heard her name in years. casey anthony. who is now back in the spotlight more than a decade after being acquitted of murdering her 2-year-old daughter. >> anthony is now joining social media for the first time. >> reporter: more than 16 years after she was accused of murdering her own daughter -- >> this is my first of probably many recordings. >> reporter: casey anthony is reintroducing herself to the public on tiktok. >> i am a legal advocate. >> reporter: without providing much detail, the now 38-year-old says she wants to use her platform to help others in a legal capacity. >> i feel it's necessary that i start to advocate for myself and also for my daughter. >> reporter: casey also directing followers to new posts on the publishing platform, sub

stack. >> as a proponent for the lgbtq community, women's rights, i feel that it's important that i use this platform that was thrust upon me and now look at as a blessing as opposed to the curse it has been since 2008. >> reporter: the video racking up millions of views as well as drawing criticism across social media. >> casey anthony is on tiktok giving legal advice. are you out of your mind? >> reporter: in 2008, she was charged with first degree murder in the death of her 2-year-old daughter, caylee. years later in 2011, she was acquitted by a jury in one of the most watched criminal trials in history. more than a decade, the case continues to captivate the nation. >> i'm still defending the fact that i didn't hurt her. >> reporter: casey breaking her silence in a recent docuseries on peacock which is owned by nbc

daily. i'm janelle wang lanes of southbound 880 are back open in oakland. we broke into programing earlier this morning to bring you this breaking news. the chp shut down lanes around 1030 as officers walked the freeway to investigate a possible freeway shooting. we're still checking with chp. so far, no word of any victims or suspects. the el cerrito plaza bart station is back open after a person on the tracks was hit by a train. the transit agency first issued an alert around 840 this morning. this is also video from nbc bay area sky ranger limited train service has been restored between richmond and north berkeley. no word on that person's condition. right now, voters in san mateo county are making a major decision regarding the fate of their embattled sheriff. nbc bay area's barbara dell shows us what measure a is asking for.

measure a is the only issue on the ballot before voters in today's special election. it asks voters to give the san mateo county board of supervisors the power to remove a sheriff with cause for cause, assuming they have a 4/5 vote. now, the board is pursuing this measure in response to an independent report it commissioned in november of last year, the 400 plus page report was released and it accuses san mateo county sheriff christina corpus of a conflict of interest, abuse of power, intimidation and retaliation against employees, and the use of racist and homophobic language. her own captains, the deputies union, several cities here on the peninsula, and local political leaders. they have asked her to step down, but sheriff corpus has refused. she says she is the victim of false lies and accusations from those who want to keep the sheriff's office, quotea white man's world. and she has since filed a $10 million claim against san mateo county. last december, voters approved a special

election. sheriff corpus challenged measure a in court, but a judge last month upheld today's special election, which is obviously going forward. a political science professor at ucsc explained to us the implications of measure a by allowing the board of supervisors to do this. they also get to appoint an interim replacement. and so that seems semi undemocratic in the sense that the person who was elected could be overthrown by this board and then someone who was not elected could replace them. the county has until the end of next month to certify today's election. if voters approve measure a, the board would then meet would have to publicly explain their reasons for wanting to remove the sheriff and would then vote again. they would need 4/5 of vote for that measure to go through. here in redwood city. bob redell nbc bay area news. thank you bob. cool, cloudy and some rain. it's back to winter weather for us in the bay area. here's meteorologist kari hall with our forecast. the clouds continue today with a chance of rain as we go into the

in jefferson park that's near japantown. that's where police rested nearly 100 people. neighbors last week told us they believe many of those arrested relocated there after the city cleared out areas in the tenderloin and south of market neighborhoods. the superintendent of dublin schools says three students will be expelled following a large on campus brawl last month. the fight led to a lockdown at dublin high school. at least two students were treated at a hospital, and one student was briefly knocked knocked unconscious. the school board must still approve those recommended expulsions. oakland leaders are grappling with major budget cuts, and they received major backlash after proposed fire station closures. but late last week, the city announced a plan to keep four fire stations open. council members are expected to authorize that plan later today. you can get all your day's news on our website, nbcbayarea.com, and i'll be back in 30 minutes with more

also, he continues the oxygen therapy to help him breathe, but the doctors insist that of course his condition or prognosis remains guarded, meaning he's not out of danger yet. you can hear that behind me. that is is evening rosary taking place in st. peter's square. hundreds of people. they've been doing this for ten days now and they're praying for the pope's recovery so they come back here to the vatican soon. >> we hear that behind you. tomorrow is ash wednesday. the start of lent. do we know if the pope will be working in any capacity? >> reporter: well, we did ask that. a vatican official said they would let us know tomorrow. it depends on how he feels. in the past few days, he has been doing some work, signing documents and stuff like that. whatever he can do from the hospital. also, receiving visits. but in the past two or three days, he just alternated rest

says 78% of fliers have real ids, but nearly a quarter don't. to get a real id, you'll need to provide an id or documentation that includes full legal name, dob, social security number and two proofs of address which could include a payroll stub, rent, or momortgage yment. with long lines at dmvs, states are spreading the word. >> ur real id is your most important carry on. >> reporter: they have star in the upper corner while california has a bear and a star. while 99% of maryland is already real id compliant, just over 30% of illinois is. >> we're doing everything we can in illinois, but i have tremendous fears for chaos at our airports. across the country. >> reporter: congress passed the real id security law after 9/11 on a recommendation from the 9/11 commission. >> next year, make sure you have the star on your id. >> reporter: but congress has hit the pause button many times.

this to say. >> politics has not played into this at all. we came up prepared to stay long even though we planned to stay short. that's what we do in human space flight. planning for unknown, unexpected contingencies. >> one being they would be on the international space station longer than expected. >> and steven, we still don't have an official return date for them. >> that's what everybody wants, to know when they're going to be home. well, crew ten is going to be going there as early as march 12th. of course, the launch windows depend on weather and so many other factors. once they make it up there, the crews will be together for usually between four and seven days then ey'll finally be on their way home after that. >> and to the point of dissent, steven, how are the astronauts getting ready to deal with gravity and ultimately returning to earth given they've been in space for so long? >> a great question.

what they actually land, either in the gulf of mexico or in the atlantic, they will be headed to houston where they'll be monitored and tested like so many others. one thing they have going for them is there are a lot of people who have been in space a long time before them who have many things they've listed to pay attention to that they'll have some good eyes on them to make sure they're all okay. but they want to see their families and suni desperately wants to see her dog. >> thank you so much. appreciate it. well, a lot of you know a familiar song from the hit -- we thought we were going to hear it then, but it's the song from saved by the bell. >> it's a classic and the show's heartthrob, zach morris. >> i caught up with the actor who played zach morris for my series called the drink, which is about how somebody got to the top of their field. he's done a lot more than saved by the bell. we had a fascinating

hearing loss and damage is something usually associated with older adults but young people are facing an increasing risk. >> according to the centers for disease control and prevention, about one in five americans under the age of 30 have had their hearing damaged by noise. joining us now to talk more, nicholas reed, an associate professor of audiology and public health at nyu. nice to see you. thanks for being here. you know, the cdc says we just said it. they say it's noise that is part of the problem. i have two air buds or some kind of earphones are part of the

problem? >> i think ear buds are a big part of the problem. traditionally, we would think of noise in the workplace or firearm usage, but air buds direct the sound right into the ear and people are listening at loud levels. even though there's safety coconsciousns among the companies, they can still get really, really loud. >> i assume you're talking about some of the audio caps a lot of phones now have. can you talk to us about what a safe noise level is and how might we know if we're passing it? >> if you think it's safe, it's unsafe. you should just stop. yeah. a good rule of thumb is that if you are shouting at people and they're within an arm's length of you or three feet of you, it's too loud in this environment. whether it's your ear buds or the world around you. >> we we're at a concert, what can we do to protect our hearing? i know at a concert, people often put in ear plugs.

is that a good idea? >> ear plugs, over the ear ear protection. custom ear protection with noise filters. it's not as trusive on the music. just move away. take breaks. open ear headphone concepts. >> the ones that go over your ears. >> much, much better. >> great tips. what are some signs we might need to get our hearing checked? >> it happens slowly across your life span. kind of a morbid concept, but the best hearing you'll have is add a child and from there, it's going down. one, listen to others. if they think you're having trouble. if you think others are mumbling, it's likely you're the problem. if you find yourself not able to hear people in a group or struggling extra hard in noise. it's likely those are signs of hearing loss. >> i have a confession that i did go see an audiologist because i used to hear this

thing we listen to producers and i've got hearing loss in my left ear. used to hear a lot of loud, loud sounds. the point is, what are ways to manage? there are ways to manage hearing loss. you mentioned getting some kind of device. >> hearing aids. hearing aids are now over the counter so there's been an explosion in readily accessible technology that both amplifies sound and makes it more comfortable and audible. so focusing on the person you want to hear in front of you and dampen other sounds. even air pods are registering as hearing aids. >> how does that work? >> it has to be with specific software and then you actually connect them to your phone and turn them into hearing aids. they have most of the same basic mechanisms of standard hearing aids. >> but you're walking around with air pods. >> yeah.

which maybe it's a good thing. changes is stigma. maybe we're going to see young people be more conscious of hearing because they're more aware. >> and they do, seems like nowadays, i know people that have hearing aids you can barely see them at all. not a big deal. >> no, i mean, i think hearing aids i know are associated with a stigma of aging, but as powerful as a laptop and the powerful as a laptop and the size of a ckel.ni if you have heart failure or chronic kidney disease, farxiga can help you keep living life, because there are places you'd like to be.

change to a holiday policy, termination of disabled or injured workers after one year, and arbitration. this is a very competitive offer. it continues to keep our front line workers as the second highest paid of transportation agencies in the bay area. themaving unilateral authority on deciding if a, you know, a grievance holds merit or not. i mean, we can't have that, right? that's the resolution process is, is the base of the entire agreement. and if we don't have that, then the entire agreement is meaningless. and again, transit union workers are on the job. they are running the trains and busses. if they do decide to strike, we will let you know and watch today in the bay. tomorrow morning, starting at 5 a.m, mike inouye will be tracking everything related to the traffic and your commute. don't put those umbrellas away. there's more rain coming this week. here's meteorologist kari hall with our extended forecast. today will be mostly cloudy,
