happy friday, thanks so much for joining us. it is 10:00 eastern, i'm ana cabrera reporting from new york, and we are tracking multiple breaking news stories this friday. in texas, a community flattened by a tornado leaving three people dead and dozens hurt. the town of perrington with over 8,000 people took a direct hit. dozens of homes now wiped off the face of the earth. >> the trailer park that the tornado first hit, there's probably 25 to 30 of those homes that are completely destroyed. >> and complicating the rescue and recovery efforts, a brutal heat wave descending upon the lone star state, some areasly c degrees. we're keeping a close eye on the supreme court this morning where at any moment the justices

could release decisions on major cases, the fate of affirmative action and student loan forgiveness among them. we've got a preview straight ahead. and remember this? eight years ago today donald trump announced his campaign for president. lately he's been making most of his announcements on the way to or from a courtroom. there's movement on the documents case. stick around until the end of the show. right now home is apparently where the money is. could housing prices finally fall after record highs? but first we start with the deadly extreme weather across the south and gulf coast region. officials saying at least three people in perryton, texas, are dead and 100 or more injured after a tornado tore through this panhandle city. this is video taken just about 100 yards away from the path of that massive twister. a mobile home park took a direct hit. 25 units gone leaving behind really just debris.

the fire chief saying two whole blocks of this downtown business area are completely destroyed, and it's not just in texas. more than 400,000 people lost power overnight after major storms brought lightning, powerful winds, and hail through louisiana, arkansas, florida, and georgia as well where we have now confirmed at least one death in that region due to the weather. nbc news correspondent sam brock is on the ground in perryton, texas. what kind of destruction and heartbreak are residents facing there today? >> reporter: so ana, good morning, you talk about the two blocks of devastation. these are the two blocks behind me here in perryton. walk with me for a second, and you'll see what folks are actually doing at this hour. this was a gym at one point. it was a grocery before that. there's this illustrious history for this building, and now it is literally rubble. as you see, a couple of the residents here are pulling up bricks, initially they were stacked about this high on top of this car.

for the last 20 minutes, that's what they've been doing. now they're trying to dig up more debris off this atv as well. this is one snippet, one snapshot of an entire community of 8,000 people that are really trying to process what's just happened. how do two tornados hit one little city that is on the border of oklahoma like back to back. and this is main street right here. the city hall area houses both the police department and the fire department. that's wiped away. and you just see all these neighbors. this is the one hardening part about this, ana, is that you are finding people going into random stores and cleaning up the glass and trying to help their neighbors, and so that does make you feel good. i will say this, let's get into the numbers. there's somewhere in the neighborhood of 75 to 100 people who are injured. that's a pretty extraordinary number and that is a range of injuries from minor cuts and bruises to collapsed lungs. there are also 15 people, ana, who are considered critical care patients moved to other hospitals for longer term care.

three confirmed deaths. i did just learn within the last hour, those three individuals, two women in their 60s and an 11-year-old boy who was in his trailer at that time when the tornado hit. imagine what his family is going through right now. pieces right now emotionally and physically of this town, people trying to gather themselves. it's going to be a long haul. there's one bit of good news in all of it is that power may be restored to a portion of the city this morning. but still, the long-term restoration is going to take, as you can see, an awfully long time. >> really, really heartbreaking. sam brock, thank you for that reporting. we're keeping a close eye on the supreme court where we're expecting opinions this hour. we're still awaiting major decisions that could impact millions of americans as we get closer to the end of the court's term and some of the biggest remaining cases focus on affirmative action, student loan forgiveness, lgbtq rights, and election laws. so we'll bring you any updates from the court as we get those opinions. the next few months would be

a busy time for any 2024 hopeful as the campaign trail is really heating up, but it's going to be down right grueling for former president trump who now has four separate trials set to begin over the next nine months. there's the civil fraud lawsuit. that's in october, two in january over an alleged get rich quick scheme as well as a defamation case, and then there's the criminal trial over hush money payments made to adult film star stormy daniels. that's to begin in march. and all of that isn't even including the most serious trial of all, the one brought by special counsel jack smith over the handling of classified documents. joinings now is nbc news correspondent vaughn hillyard, "washington post" associate editor and host of the saturday and sunday show here on msnbc, jonathan capehart, boston globe columnist, lawyer, and msnbc political analyst, kimberly atkins stohr, and an msnbc political analyst as well.

thank you all for joining us . it's hard to believe it's been eight years since that infamous video of trump coming down the golden escalator to announce his campaign for the presidency. that was back in 2015. and i just look at all of these trials we laid out. how does anyone keep up with that kind of legal challenge while running a campaign for the white house? >> i don't know, this is going to be the first time that you or i or any american has ever watched this in history try to take place. the one luxury that donald trump does have is that over the last eight years ever since he went down that escalator, he has been traveling around the country. i've talked to key republican activists in several of the key early states but also states like arizona, and over the last eight years, all of those county chairs, all of the party officials, all of those activists, they all have photos with donald trump. they all got to know him personally. so ron desantis, all of these other candidates, ron desantis is in nevada here this weekend, they're all playing catchup. while donald trump is going to be going through these proceedings while he is spending time in bedminster, all of the

other candidates, they're the ones that are trying to make up the ground and make the case, you know, for the purposes of other news this week, right, i should take over the wheel of fortune. america knows donald trump. the republican electorate knows what a donald trump white house would look like, and that is where for him he does have the luxury that he does control the news cycle even when it comes to a department of justice indictment. >> it was one of his advisories that says he's thriving in this moment, even though he's facing very serious charges including potentially decades in prison if he's convicted. kimberly, let's talk about the documents case. there's movement there. "the new york times" is reporting that judge cannon has ordered trump's lawyers to start getting security clearances so they can potentially review some of those documents very soon. does that suggest that she has no plans to recuse herself, and that perhaps she wants to move forward swiftly? >> yeah, i think it's an indication of both of those things, ana. this judge would no be sending

this sort of timetable if she were planning on stepping down in this case. and i think it's also an indication that given how much we and other news organizations have been talking about judge cannon and her selection for this case, i think she realizes the world, the eyes of the world are on her, and she wants to do what she can -- she should be doing what she can to administrate this case well and fairly as well as protect her own reputation. in this case, the classified -- the classified clearance that is required is really important. this is something that donald trump should have had as part of his legal team already, but he has had a difficult time keeping lawyers on his team because he is such a notoriously difficult client. so i think that is one way to sort of preserve the record in that sense, but yeah, i think that she is definitely signaling that she thinks she can handle this case despite what critics say and that she is staying on

for now. >> we talked a lot about how republicans are trying to figure out how to respond. what's the right thing to do politically, what's the right thing to do for your character and integrity. nbc news is reporting that democrats are now grappling with this same question. you have president biden, his allies largely staying silent so as not to fuel the trump narrative that this is a political prosecution. but here's the other side of the coin. dan fifer, former adviser in the obama white house argues, quote, silence could end up being a mistake. he writes democrats need to go on offense to push back on trump's messaging before he discredits the investigations and distracts the public. so is it dangerous for democrats to stay on the sidelines and let trump have an open mic? how do you weigh the risk/reward of these two philosophilosophie? >> sure. to be clear, the president has asked folks in the administration and the dnc to not pile on, but if outside groups and other folks want to

do it, that's just fine. and actually, that's the way it should be right now. i do think trying not to play into trump's narrative that this is a political persecution is the right they think to do, one. also, if you're potentially running against a former president who has been criminally indicted for mishandling national security secrets, why would you want to get in the way of that and let him flail on his own. ana, when it comes to republicans, trump's republican opponents, they can't quite figure out what to do about this. they in their right mind, they know what they should be saying, but they also know if they say what they should say, their not going to get votes, assuming that they could, from the republican party faithful because they are, as we see in the polls lock step behind donald trump. and each time he gets indicted he raises more money and his

poll numbers go up, so my thinking here, ana, is all those court dates you showed, you could think, wow, how is he going to split his time between the campaign trail and the courtroom. with donald trump, they will be one and the same. >> elise, so many of trump's 2024 rivals have held their fire against trump trying to not alienate his voters, but even with these legal cases piling up, it sure doesn't seem like trump's planning to back down. do you see any scenario where he voluntarily drops out of the race? >> absolutely not. even right now he has bad attention, but it's attention, and we all know that donald trump loves and thrives when he's getting media attention. i would just say that you look at this group of potential gop contenders. no one has been able to make a dent in donald trump because they're all too hesitant to attack him just the same as they were in the 2016 primary. and going back to this time in

2016 i was working on senator rand paul's campaign, and he was leading in the polls. that's how different the landscape was at that point. donald trump got in, and then donald trump just spiked in the polls and every candidate -- some candidates would attack him a little bit, but no one went that hard. they thought that they would get those voters and absorb them, and they never did. by contrast, you look at donald trump, this go-around already, he has managed to chip in to ron desantis and to just really diminish him as a contender. >> why is he so hard for other candidates to deal with? >> he comes back at you, and he's not going to stop, and he will insult, and he has so -- he's a very -- as we've seen, he's such a bully when it comes from the podium, and he manages to attract negative attention, which still, it's attention at the end of the day. >> vaughn, you have some new reporting on the group no labels that's been preparing a potential third-party run. fill us in.

>> if folks have not heard about no labels or been in tune with what no labels is creating, it's time to do that now. this is a super pac that has millions of dollars behind them, and they are looking to form a unity ticket, having a republican candidate and a democratic candidate as a presidential and vice presidential pick. joe manchin has not ruled out potentially being the democrat on that unity ticket right here. what they're trying to do is gain ballot access. this has particularly democrats nationally very nervous because when you look at polling, druch versus joe biden next november if you put a third-party candidate on there, there's concern that those reluctant biden voters would go to that third party. these are the key states that flipped from donald trump to joe biden from 2016 to 2020. you look up the significant share of voters in america that voted for third-party candidates, gary johnson, jill stein in 2016, and there's a great many democrats that laid played blame on those

third-party voters for shifting that election to donald trump instead of hillary clinton in 2016 and the concern right now is the same thing could happen now, and that is where you see democrats fighting back. i did have a conversation with the co-chair of no labels who just told me yesterday, though, that they intend to drop their effort next spring if joe biden has a big lead over donald trump in polling. but then i was talking to other democrats who said, wait a second, that is not what we're talking about. we're concerned if it is a close race we don't want no labels involved. this is going to be a big debate here nationally in the months ahead as no labels mounts this campaign. >> there are more and more candidates jumping in. we were reporting yesterday about mayor suarez in miami joining the gop field. the other side, california governor gavin newsom has been talked about as a potential presidential candidate at some point. he's been taking shots at ron desantis and that appears to be getting under his skin. here's how he's responding to

newsom. >> you know what? stop fussy footing around. are you going to throw your hat in the ring and challenge joe? are you going to get in and do it, or are you just going to sit on the sidelines and chirp? why don't you throw your hat in the ring. >> jonathan, california governor newsom hasn't made any 2024 announcements, but he has been whispered about as a potential biden challenger. do you think he's considering? >> no. no. not at all. i think that governor newsom finds governor desantis and what he's doing in florida, turning, you know, from the six-week abortion ban to the crt stuff and the anti-so-called woke stuff that i think the governor of california is morally offended by what the governor is doing, one. and two, is taking great delight in trying to get under his skin. i mean, governor newsom took out billboards in florida calling on

people to come to california where things are great. so i think governor newsom, i interviewed him about a year ago where he was going on about guns and how, you know, he's sickened by gun violence and wants to do something about it by trying to sue the gun manufacturers. i think as the governor of california, one of the largest economies in the world and a democrat who is tired of democrats hanging back and not fighting, he's taking it upon himself to take the battle where he can take it and going after ron desantis, someone who at this point is the number two polling person for the republican nomination, what better foil. >> jonathan capehart, vaughn hillyard, kimberly atkins stohr, and elise jordan, thank you all. appreciate your time. happy friday. don't forget to catch jonathan every saturday and sunday morning at 9:00 a.m. eastern right here on msnbc. when we're back in just 60 seconds, a cyber attack on u.s.

government agencies. who's to blame and who's at risk? also, new reporting about what president biden's advisers talked him out of doing after the u.s. shot down a chinese surveillance balloon. this as our nation's top diplomat heads to china. plus, more of nbc's exclusive interview with ukraine's president, including how he thinks the outcome of the 2024 presidential election could impact the war. and a rough coast guard rescue you need to see. and now she's got myplan, the game-changing new plan that lets her pick exactly what she wants and save on every perk. sadie is getting her plan ready for a big trip. travel pass, on. nice iphone. cute couple. trips don't last forever, neither does summer love. so, sadie is moving on. apple music, check! introducing myplan. the first and only unlimited plan to give you exactly what you want, so you only pay for what you need. act now and get iphone 14 pro max on us when you switch. it's your verizon. we know patients are more than their disease.

that's why, at novo nordisk, we've spent a hundred years developing treatments to help unlock humanity's full potential. these are the greats: people living with, thriving with — not held back by — disease. they motivate us to fight diabetes and obesity, rare diseases and cardiovascular conditions, for generations to come. so, everyone can meet their moment. because your disease doesn't define you. so, what will? novo nordisk. driving change. we're going to head to the supreme court now, the justices have released two opinions today but still no rulings on affirmative action or student loans and there is a mountain of cases still waiting decisions beyond those with very little time left. i want to bring in nbc news correspondent julia ainsley. any tea leaves we can be reading about when we'll get those big decisions? >> reporter: well, we know the

next day that we'll see opinions is next thursday, and then they really only have next week and the following week before they're done with this term. it usually ends at the end of june, and so we're every day waiting for those big decisions, the two decisions we got today were less consequential. one having to do with sentencing. another having to do with a technical legal argument about suing the u.s. government, very less consequential to the seismic decisions we could be getting next, having to do with affirmative action, whether or not colleges can still achieve diversity without considering race. student loans, whether or not the biden plan to forgive over $20,000, up to $20,000 of student loan debt can be forgiven. will that stand? we're also awaiting another decision on voting rights and another one having to do with free speech versus the rights of lgbt people. these are big decisions and possibly a reason why they're coming so late as often is the case, the bigger decisions come later in the term because the

justices have to do more work to right those opinions and more work internally, wrangling, trying to build consensus, who will ultimately fall on what side. we know this is a divided court. it's also a court leaning more conservative. a lot is riding on those major decisions that could have a big impact on this country. >> we'll be watching, we'll be following very closely. julia ainsley, thank you for the update. new developments now in one of the most damaging national security leaks in recent u.s. history. the air national guardsman accused of leaking classified pentagon documents on a social media platform has now been indicted on new charges. a federal grand jury voted to invite jack teixeira on six counts accusing him of willful retention and transmission of national defense information. he's accused of accessing classified documents from a workstation at an air base in massachusetts, transcribing the text in those documents and taking pictures of some of the documents with classified

markings and posting them online. teixeira remains in federal custody. we are learning multiple u.s. government agencies have been hacked in recent weeks as part of a broader cyber attack across dozens of companies and organizations including, again, government agencies. this is all according to the cyber security and infrastructure security agency or cisa. the agency says it is still investigating the scope of this attack but believes hackers were able to exploit a vulnerability in a popular file transferring program used by government agencies and companies. joining us now is former fbi special agent and nbc news national security analyst, clint watts. what more do we know about this software called move it that these hackers were apparently using to gain access into these agencies? >> well, it's a transferring site where you can upload lots of data, move it between one organization and another. that makes it a ripe target for hackers. you can think of it almost as an

information bank. it's a place where you can hit if you're able to exploit vulnerabilities in that software, then you can tap into the information of just not one but hundreds of different organizations. so that's a critical node that they could strike, and it allows them then to deploy ransomware, hold different entities for ransom. this didn't just hit the federal government. it also hit all the major industries around the world, several different universities are having to deal with it now. lots of different businesses have been hit. it's a very major ransomware operation. everyone's trying to see how it will shake out and what will happen as a result of it. >> do we know if any sensitive information is at risk from these attacks or who is potentially vulnerable here? >> yeah, we don't know in terms of sensitive information. surely there was some stolen from private sector, i think what everyone's worried about is if government agencies were hit, what kind of information was

taken. the ransomware groups interestingly have not called for ransoms from the federal governments or local governments. one of the messages that was issued out on the dark web, take it with a grain of salt, was that they were not going to divulge that information, that they didn't want a ransom, that could be them not wanting to draw the scrutiny of governments, but at the same point, if they do have that information it's always going to be a linger question what they might do with it and when they might do something with it. >> we don't even know who they is, we don't know who exactly is behind this attack. this is the third time since 2020 that hackers have been able to access to federal agencies. chinese intelligence broke into additional groups through a remote work program. what more needs to be done to stop these attacks? >> it's extremely difficult.

i think there's several different ways that you can attack the problem. one thing to look at is cryptocurrencies are the mechanism by which these ransom groups are paid. if they had to go through the legal banking system, obviously they wouldn't be able to pull off these kinds of heists, at least not to the degree they do now. the second part, so much of the infrastructure and technology that all governments need to use right now is programmed in the private sector. there has to be reviews. there has to be third-party checkers of this information and the code that's being written into it. we're still finding vulnerabilities. it's very difficult to patch all of these software applications that come into the government. 15 years ago it was only a few application. now nearly every application when you're talking about moving large amounts of data, which this software was able to do, the moveit software, now you're talking about a highway of information that can be tapped into if there's any vulnerabilities. so doing all the checks on that, it's a rigorous process that's never quite perfect.

>> and as we continue to cover these types of cases, i just can't help but think it's one of those things where you don't know what you don't know. there is so much to learn in this area to protect us as individuals, but obviously as a country especially. thank you so much, clint watts for your time and expertise. appreciate it. and now to a happy ending for a german shepherd that fell hundreds of feet down a cliff off the coast of oregon. there's incredible video here. the pacific northwest coast guard posted this video showing a chopper team on wednesday rappelling down to the rocks below and locating this injured dog. isn't he cute? that dog was hoisted into a basket, raised into the chopper above and we're told the canine was later returned to solid ground and reunited with his owner. up next on "ana cabrera reports," explosions in kyiv overnight as ukraine presses its counteroffensive against russia. what president zelenskyy exclusively tells nbc news about how next year's u.s. election

could potentially spell the difference between victory and defeat. plus, it's the first time since 2018 that the u.s. secretary of state will be in china. what white house advisers convinced president biden not to do after the u.s. shot down that notorious spy balloon. (crashing sounds) everyone's gonna need more tide. it's a mess out there. that's why there's 85% more tide in every power pod. -see? -baby: ah.

we're back with high stakes diplomacy in action with secretary of state antony blinken heading to china today

to address the tense relationship between the two countries. he's set to meet with top chinese officials and will be the first u.s. secretary of state to go to beijing since 2018. the trip was actually first scheduled for february, you'll recall, but it was postponed after the whole spy balloon saga. and this morning, nbc news has exclusive reporting about how top national security advisers talked president biden out of calling chinese president xi after that balloon was shot down arguing it could, quote, look like biden is pleading for talks. joining us now is nbc news washington managing editor carol lee who broke this story. carol, what exactly are you learning about those conversations between biden and his advisers? >> well, what we're learning is a little bit about why president biden and president xi have not spoken on the phone since president biden said four months ago in february after the u.s. shot down that chinese spy balloon that he expected to

speak with president xi soon so the two leaders could get to the bottom of this. what my colleague courtney kube and i are told from officials is that the president wanted to speak to xi. he felt like his relationship with the chinese leader, it's something he talks about, he's very proud of, he has a close relationship here that goes back years, that he felt like that could be helpful in easing these tensions. they were at an all-time high in those days and weeks after the u.s. shot down that spy balloon, but the president's advisers felt like it wasn't the right time for that. they wanted to get the relationship back on track but that it was better to start with lower level discussions between u.s. and chinese officials, and that's essentially what we've seen, particularly in the last month where those conversations have really picked up, where lower level officials have talked to their chinese counterparts and this all culminaing with this visit that secretary blinken is making to beijing this weekend. and so what the white house hopes now is that the secretary's visit will be

followed by other visits, by other cabinet secretaries, potentially a treasury secretary, and then maybe a phone call and some sort of discussion, potentially a meeting later this fall between president biden and president xi. >> okay, so again, the secretary of state now in china laying the groundwork for perhaps more diplomacy between the two countries. carol lee, thank you so much. in ukraine, the now familiar sound of air sirens ringing out in kyiv today as missiles struck the capital city. kyiv is also where our own richard engel spoke exclusively to president zelenskyy who said he is, quote, concerned about the 2024 race for the white house. and they also discussed what a new american president could mean for military aid and even the fate of the nato alliance. joining us now from kyiv is nbc news chief foreign affairs correspondent richard engel, and richard, zelenskyy had a strong message for american lawmakers who may be questioning the continued military aid and financial investments in this

fight. >> reporter: he did. he had a message that if people want to ignore the problem, if they think it will go away, that this is just a territorial dispute between ukraine and russia, then in his opinion, they are mistaken, that there is a wider issue here at play. the defense of democracy, and he believes that if the west, the united states in particular don't make a stand here that russia will continue to expand. putin will remain unchallenged or would be unchallenged, and that there would be a wider conflict between russia and nato. and that is a point he's made consistently. that is a point that the biden administration and president biden seem to agree on, and that is why the level of support for the last year and a half has been so high. but they are watching the debates. they are watching the campaign speeches that are coming out now, particularly from republican presidential

candidates, former president trump, ron desantis, and others who are calling into question the level of support, and that makes them concerned. ukraine is in a full scale fight to take back russian-occupied land. a pivotal moment for our interview with ukrainian president volodymyr zelenskyy at the presidential compound in kyiv. >> this must be a very critical time for you. >> critical and very busy. >> reporter: for over a year, ukraine has been fighting successfully to defend itself. now it's on the offensive to breakthrough russian front lines. it's proving to be a challenge, and zelenskyy says if ukraine prevails, they'll win the war. >> we are now in the early days of this long-anticipated counteroffensive. how's it going? >> translator: i cannot give you all the details. the rebels of defensive and

offensive actions, things look not bad. i would say it's generally positive. but it's difficult. our heroic people, our troops are are now at the front of the front line are facing very tough resistance. and you understand why, because for russia to lose this campaign to ukraine, i would say actually means losing the war. >> reporter: president zelenskyy also had a dire warning. he blamed russia for blowing up a dam, which russia denies, flooding dozens of villages, and he tells us the next russian target is the zaporizhzhia nuclear power plant. with u.s. elections looming, president zelenskyy said he's well aware some republican candidates including former president trump and governor desantis are expressing doubts about american support for ukraine. >> translator: yes, we are

concerned about this. yes. i believe it is a great risk for ukraine. we are not worried about a new person in power, but a change in the policy of the united states. that's what we don't want. and i believe it won't happen. >> reporter: nato defense officials are meting in brussels today to discuss the possibility or a road map for ukraine's possible entry into nato. they've said that wouldn't happen as long as there's fighting. it would happen after the war, but president zelenskyy told me that he's quite adamant that he wants a clear path to nato membership and security guarantees. ana. >> richard engel, thank you for that report. up next here on "ana cabrera reports," we are in pittsburgh where a jury is deliberating the fate of the man accused of deadliest attack on the jewish community in american history.

welcome back, jury deliberations are back underway in pittsburgh in the tree of life synagogue shooting trial. robert bowers is accused of killing 11 people in october of 2018. federal prosecutors told the jury ahead of deliberations that bowers was fueled by a hatred of jewish people. let's bring in nbc news correspondent george solis in pittsburgh. what are we learning this morning? >> reporter: good morning, ana,

the jury deliberating for about two hours this morning and it appears that they had a question for the judge regarding some of the charges here with the intent portion of some of the charges related, and it appears that the judge is now answering some of those questions. so it tells you a little bit about how things are happening inside the courtroom. a little context here, yesterday the prosecution and defense resting their cases with their closing arguments. the prosecution reminding the jury about what the accused shooter robert bowers did with his intent to go to the tree of life synagogue and kill the 11 worshippers. when he finally did stop it wasn't because it was the right thing to do it was simply because he ran out of ammunition. as for the defense side, they've been trying to do what they can to explain a little bit more about robert bowers character and his intent and motivation saying things like he didn't do it to stop people from worshipping. because of his own thoughts about immigration saying that he went there because of his views on immigrants and refugees, people he viewed as invaders. the prosecution in a rebuttal

saying look at what he did. he did not go to a refugee camp. he did not go to the border. he went to the tree of life synagogue and he killed those 11 worshippers and also injured those police officers. yesterday i had the opportunity to speak with members of the congregation here outside of the courthouse. take a listen to what they told me. >> we don't say his name. he is the shooter. he is not a person. what he did was beyond horrible. he violated basic rules of humanity. he came to where people were praying to god. he did not care who he came for. he did not care for which congregation. he came because we were jews. >> reporter: deliberations continue, ana. >> so heartbreaking to know what that congregation has gone through and just to relive that

champs in denver turned into a chaotic scene. a police sergeant providing security for players was accidentally run over by a fire truck, and a shooting near the festivities left two people injured. and that is not all. nbc's steve patterson is here with all the details. steve, what exactly happened at this parade? >> yeah, ana, a lot. police this morning still searching for a suspect involved in that shooting. remember, that is the second shooting in less than a week following a nuggets celebration. the police chief says he takes these shootings very seriously, and based on how many active cameras there were in the area, he believes that this specific shooting they'll make an arrest rather quickly. take a look. >> reporter: it was supposed to be a big victory party in denver, a parade for the nuggets, capping their historic first ever nba finals win. hundreds of thousands of fans packing the streets to catch a glimpse of their favorite players, but shortly after the celebration started to wind down, gunshots rang out.

police say the suspect, an unidentified male, started firing, wounding two people, who were both in serious condition. denver's police chief saying all involved likely knew each other. >> we believe that this was a targeted incident. >> reporter: authorities say the shooter is still at large, but with multiple security cameras in the area, they're confident he'll be captured. on monday, just hours after the nuggets beat the miami heat to win the title, ten people were injured after gunfire broke out. police characterizing that mass shooting as a drug deal gone wrong. a mile high week of celebration marred by senseless acts of violence. >> here we are again having to talk about someone endangering the lives of people who came to celebrate. >> reporter: meanwhile, in a separate incident during the victory parade, a veteran denver police officer was badly injured after a fire truck accidentally rolled over his leg. authorities say the decorated s.w.a.t. sergeant was trying to protect paradegoers. >> it was horrible.

it was a sad sight. >> reporter: also on the parade route, denver fox affiliate capturing this video, showing nba superstar yokich's wife getting hit in the face by a beer can. the couple were riding on the team's float and she was holding their 1-year-old daughter at the time. despite the incident involving his wife, the two-time league mvp known as the joker sticking around to celebrate with fans. >> we're all going to remember this our all lives. this is for you. we love you, denver. this is for you. there is currently no word on how badly hurt yokich's wife was from that beer can, but we are told the police officer was pretty seriously injured in that fire truck accident. he could possibly lose his leg, all of this while both of those shootings from this week are under investigation. ana? >> so unfortunate, obviously, supposed to be so fun. steve patterson, thank you. up next here on "ana cabrera reports," priced out of the market? we'll tell you where home prices are headed. plus, is beyonce responsible

i'm kareem abdul jabbar. i was diagnosed with afib. the first inkling that something was wrong was i started to notice that i couldn't do things without losing my breath. i couldn't make it through the airport, and every like 20 or 30 yards i had to sit down and get my breath. every physical exertion seemed to exhaust me. and finally, i went to the hospital where i was diagnosed with afib. when i first noticed symptoms, which kept coming and going, i should have gone to the doctor and told them what was happening. instead, i tried to let it pass. if you experience irregular heartbeat, heart racing, chest pain, shortness of breath, fatigue, or light-headedness, you should talk to your doctor. afib increases the risk of stroke about 5 times i want my experience to help others understand the symptoms of atrial fibrillation.

get ready for another booster shot. an fda advisory board voted yesterday to update the covid booster to specifically target the latest strain circulating here in the u.s., which is known as xbb. it evolved from some of the omicron subvariants. pfizer believes that it can get

the new boosters ready by the end of july and the cdc is set to meet next week to decide who should get the shots and when. now let's round out a week of promiing economic news here. the dow is up slightly, up about 50 points now. this follows all three major indexes. the s&p, nasdaq and dow closing out their highest levels since 2022 yesterday. we also had news that inflation hit a two-year low, prompting the federal reserve to skip an interest rate hike for the first time in 15 months. let's bring in host of npr's "full disclosure," ryan farzad, it is farzad friday. what do you make of the stock market gains and the cooling of inflation finally? >> it is interesting about the stock market, their old school market watchers who would say inflation is just kryptonite to stocks. we know you go to restaurants, the grocery store, there are companies out there that are

pushing through price increases that have such pricing power. i'm thinking about the apple goggles and who knows if anybody is going to shell out $4,000. that's what they said about the apple watch and the stock meanwhile hits a $3 trillion market capitalization and it is no coincidence that some of the most prestigious big tech firms with the most pricing power are hitting -- are revisiting records and sending the market up to levels we haven't seen since its all-time highs. >> we're seeing softening in food categories, at the gas station. cnbc is reporting that housing inflation should soon fall. haven't seen that yet. when might we see some relief in the housing market? >> i wonder what the cry uncle part is. i'm thinking about miami where suddenly, you know, $1.2 million is the new $600,000 in terms of a starter home. other markets out there, you have mortgages going at 7.5%,

8%. you would think this fever would break. as we covered before, there has been such a shortage of home building, such a lag. there are labor issues, there were supply chain issues, that this largely has not caught up for the better part of 12, 13 years. and i'm amazed that speculative fervor still exists in certain markets, even though you've seen a cooling in many markets across the country. there are somewhere people are just scratching their heads. you're seeing preemptive bids happen, real estate agents can't give you time of day and mortgages are costly. so, i wond when it finally breaks. >> i want to ask you about the crazy headline. beyonce concerts may be causing economic issues in sweden, causing a huge surge in travel to stockholm, driving up hotel prices and other costs associated with lots of tourists and fans and i guess driving up overall inflation there. really? >> you have to love it when swedish bankers flag the bay

effect, the queen bay effect. this reminds me of covering the vice presidential debate in tiny farmville, virginia, in 2016, when the entire world descended on this town. and longwood university for 24, 36 hours and drove up prices everywhere. there aren't enough hotel rooms, aren't enough restaurants, you get great examples of microinflation in a country that has the population roughly of north carolina. it is fascinating. >> she epitomizes girl power, right? the power to drive up inflation? that's something. robin farzad, thank you so much. that's going to do it for us this week. have a wonderful weekend. i'll be back, same time, same place next week. until then, reporting from new york, i'm ana cabrera. jose diaz-balart picks up our coverage and is going to interview miami mayor francis suarez, who just jumped into the 2024 race. right now. and good
