punching back at the bully and drawing a contrast of what the stakes are. >> a lot of nervous democrats, a lot of nervous people over these polls. >> they're going to have to do -- on the economy, the border, joe biden's age, ukraine, all of those things are going to need better messaging. if they don't think they're in the general election campaign, they haven't noticed what's happening on the republican side. it's stopping. >> i think it's not playing like it is quite yet, but it needs to. >> it needs to. >> that does it for us this morning, ana cabrera picks up the coverage right now. right now on "ana cabrera reports," the fight to leave the house. early candidates emerging in the mad scramble to be the next speaker. can anyone unite house republicans as tensions among them boil over? >> but put yourself in his reality, which is that republicans continue to stone wall him, the government was about to shut down. you're in that position, what do

you do? >> you're assuming that i can't bring the republicans together. that's why i'm running. plus, donald trump's plans to appeal a judge's ruling finding him liable for fraud. could that impact the trial already in its fourth day? also, scathing new remarks from new york's attorney general declaring the trump show is over. and later, new controversy for the biden white house this morning, details on miles of new border wall about to be built in texas and the federal laws being waived to do it. hello, and thank you for joining us. it's 10:00 eastern, i'm ana cabrera reporting from new york, and we begin with the power vacuum in washington as a furious rush begins to find the next speaker of the house. republican steve scalise and jim jordan are among the early candidates at least vying for the gavel, but it's tense in the house. very tense ahead of the planned october 11th vo

so is there anyone that fractured caucus can get behind? nbc's ali vitali is on capitol hill where she just spoke with jim jordan. also with us is nbc's jonathan allen and former republican congressman from florida, david jolly. ali, you just spoke exclusively with jordan, what did he have to say? >> reporter: that's exactly right, ana, and you showed a piece of our interview where i talked to him about the most pressing issue that any speaker who's next would have to face, which is avoiding the next government shutdown. that's largely how we got into this place of having to find a new speaker in the first place. mccarthy effectively held accountable for looking at democrats to help keep the government open. i asked jordan in the clip you show what had he would do differently. he thought that he wouldn't have the issues that mccarthy had in uniting his conference. i'll play for you a little m more of that exclusive

conversation we had about what it would take to avoid the next shutdown. watch. >> how would you have done differently than mccarthy in this latest shutdown this weekend? he did have to look to democrats. >> well, the key is i think and i hope i can get our team to rally around the process i just described, which is that longer term cr with the 1% cut, that leverage there. >> put yourself in his reality, which is that republicans continued to stonewall him, the government was about to shutdown. you're in that -- >> you're assuming that i can't bring the republicans together. i think that's why i'm running. >> reporter: and so of course the next question that i asked him, ana, was so you're saying it was in part personal for mccarthy with some of these other members of the conference. jordan dodged on that, but reading between the lines, that is clearly what he's saying. he lacks some of the personal animosities that mccarthy had with key people in the conference like gaetz. i do want to tick through a few other pieces of our interview that i thought were notable,

especially as you mentioned the frustration and tension within the republican conference writ large right now, especially that ire directed towards matt gaetz. there is some chatter from some republicans that they want to oust him from within the rank os. republican conference. that's something i asked jordan if he would support. he said he would not be supportive of that, that he thinks that gaetz has been a good member of the conference. of course there are many people that i've spoken to in the last few days who vehemently disagree. i think it's striking when you talk about the looming possibility of another government shutdown before the holidays, i asked jordan if he thought that a shutdown would be unacceptable to him. that's a line that mccarthy had previously laid out, as well as mcconnell, schumer, and president biden. he didn't say that. he thought he'd have the leverage to be able to avoid it. it is an important thing to note, especially as members are trying to figure out how the next speaker would contend with the looming possibility of a shutdown. it's not just jordan. it's also the current number two, steve scalise.

those are the two that are officially in the race. i've been able to report this morning along with my colleague julie tsirkin that kevin hern has been actively making calls to gauge interest. he's not officially in the hunt yet. >> and ali, we're just getting word that as this battle heats up, rep warren davis of ohio has now endorsed jordan for speaker. so it's getting even more interesting. congressman, i want to play some sound including some of my interview just yesterday with representative bob good who voted to oust mccarthy. i just want to highlight how tense the situation on capitol hill is getting. let's listen. >> i think if we hung around here right now you would probably see some folks breaking out in a fistfight and i'd love to tell you i'm kidding. >> fights and negotiates and uses the leverage we have as house majority. >> i think no speaker should ever have a proverbial gun to their head at the threat and the whim of one or in this case

eight members. >> so congressman, do you think realistically they can get one person for everybody to rally behind? >> i don't know, ana. i mean, look, i think to ali's reporting, jonathan's as well, it's kind of scalise and jordan and everybody else right now, but that dynamic could shift. those are the two front runners. the question is can you get to 218 votes in your carcass. here's where the house caucus rules come into play. historically behind closed doors whoever got to over 51% of the caucus votes, everybody would agree to support them on the floor. that began to unravel, actually, in 2015, and i admit to being part of that when kevin mccarthy had more than 50% of the caucus. but we wouldn't give him our votes on the floor. and that's how we ended up with paul ryan, and so what the new speaker will have to do, if it's scalise or jordan or if neither one can do it and it moves to

somebody else is behind closed doors can they secure the full commit the of all 218, meeting the gaetz and the lunas before they go to the floor. this is where time is actually on the republicans' side. in january they had to go to the floor right away, and the whole world had to watch their mess happen in public, 15 votes. they don't have to do that right now. mchenry can stay the speaker pro tem until republicans are able to unite behind closed doors, behind one person, go to the floor with 218. >> i'm not so sure congress is on their side given the government shutdown deadline, right? isn't that going to be a potential issue and need to have some expediency here to get somebody who they can unite behind in order to hold votes? >> yeah, when i say time, i mean it doesn't have to be this coming week, but you're right, time is ticking on the 45 day cr. ali is exactly right. it's a weird situation, ana,

which successful speaker candidate behind closed doors can promise that they're going to lose the budget showdown, but they'd still be a good speaker. math is math. there's a democratic senate and a democratic president, and whatever the speaker promises better be in the realm of reality. if they over promise they're going to end up where mccarthy was. >> jonathan i want to highlight your new piece on nbc.com entitled the gop armed its bazooka caucus, what could go wrong? and you write this, the gaetz phenomenon is indicative of a larger trend within the republican party and within the house. the use of emergency measures, the heaviest available political artillery to thwart majority rule, disrupt democratic institutions and oust political opponents. can you expand upon that? >> absolutely. you know what we've seen in recent years is a whole bunch of stuff that we never saw before because no one ever contemplated that this motion to vacate the chair in the house of

representatives was used only once before the last few years. it was joe cannon who was the speaker at the time, and he called on a vote to remove himself in order to show how powerful he was and put down that vote. the reason that it's being looked at now is in the post-9/11 era, congress was worried about what would happen if a speaker was incapacitated or a large number of members of congress was incapacitated. they changed the rules around to how the speakership would transfer to a designee of the speaker. it made members of congress look at this more closely and say this could be used as a political tool. the concept behind all these rules changes about 20 years ago was that they wanted to be able to have an emergency tool in the event of some sort of catastrophe. now it's being used for basic

part sanship. now you're seeing impeachments all the time, an impeachment inquiry the house has undertaken without a full vote of the house, without the need of expediency of trying to move on impeachment based on the president about to leave office. more and more of these procedural tools are being used. you saw these members of congress saying that the speaker's operating with a gun to his head. it's much more than that. if you hand a small minority the ability to disrupt the house, they're going to do it in order to get more power than they have in their numbers. >> and i even think about the disruption of the electoral college count and certification, which we saw on january 6th and how that unfolded. congressman, do you agree with this assessment that jonathan just, you know, laid out for us, this idea that they're able to wield these sort of questionable tactics against political opponents, but i wonder if it's a wake-up call for them now that it's coming back to actually

harm them directly. >> yeah, i think you have to bring into this how politics has evolved in the last 20 years, what it takes to get elevated to the congress now can be a social media presence, not experience in the legislature, and so we are populating our congress with people who have been rewarded and they respond to different incentives than we've seen in the past. the question becomes what does that mean for democracy? you can look at this week and say, look, we're in a lot of trouble, and perhaps that is the case, to see the unraveling of a major party. but the reality is if you take all the dressing off of this, we are going to see coalition governing for the next 18 months, 14 to 16 months at least, and that is out of just pure necessity. you can look at the debt deal. you can look at the cr, what we know will take to budget for the nation over the next 12 to 16 months is ultimately going to be a coalition. just the two major parties are going to deny that. it's going to take a coalition, so maybe that's a silver lining

to the destruction we're seeing this week. >> hopefully so, thank you so much, former congressman david jolly, jonathan allen, and ali vitali. when we're back in 60 seconds, donald trump's civil fraud trial, his new bid to get a ruling in the case finding him liable for fraud thrown out. plus a deadly and seemingly random stabbing on a new york sidewalk captured here on camera. the disturbing details we're learning. also ahead, my conversation with a group of high school students navigating the college application process as the white house announces new student loan forgiveness. and later, the tsunami of price hikes coming from some of your favorite streamers. reamers.

(vo) trade in any iphone in any condition for a new iphone 15 pro on us. only on verizon. welcome back. we have now entered day four of the civil fraud trial into donald trump's business empire, and after three days of a media circus with the former president

choosing to appear in court and raging about the judge and the attorney general in breaks, he is not expected at court today, but his lawyers officially said they plan to file an appeal over the major decision so far from the judge in this case, that trump is liable for fraud. let's bring in nbc news correspondent lindsey reiser outside the courthouse in lower manhattan, and former manhattan assistant district attorney rebecca roiphe. rebecca, let's start with trump's team appealing the ruling. trump's team will ask the court to consider whether judge engoron's ruling acted in excess of its jurisdiction. do you think this goes anywhere? >> i don't, but you know, this was an expected move on the part of defense attorneys. it is entirely possible that the appellate court would disagree with the judge's interpretation of the law here. i think it's based on a a

reasonable and probably the most accurate understanding of the law as it's been interpreted thus far, but you know, unexpected things can happen. >> lindsey, let's turn to what's happening today in court. what witnesses do we expect, and how will it be different without trump there? >> reporter: well, ana, we know that attorney general james is back in her usual seat in the courtroom. the former president is not, he flew back to florida yesterday. yesterday we did hear some fireworks in that courtroom, the judge getting frustrated over the cross examination of accountant donald bender going year after year, property after property, the judge essentially saying can't we lump all this together. at one point saying this is ridiculous and pounding on the bench. the former president shaking his head at the drama unfolding in flont of him. his attorney saying that bender only seemed to recall what the government wanted him to recall

and saying he never had to negotie how to ask questions before. remember, this is a bench trial. there's no jury. it's just the judge there. and we heard also from witness number two, who was the accountant who took over after bender, and he for the first time introduced the roles of eric and don jr. in the case. remember, they're defendants as well, and they signed of these engagement letters over the financial statements that the attorney general's office says were overly inflated. today we're going to hear more cross examination potentially that lasts the entire day, cross examination of bender. it's kind of confusing. they're sort of flip-flopping witnesses. once that wraps up, we could hear from jeffrey mcconnie, senior vp who also testified in the tax fraud case wooefrt not expected to see the president for some time until he's called to testify. we're not exactly sure of the exact order of witnesses but isn't expected to be anytime soon.

the attorney general doesn't have to call him. it sounds like his defense will if that doesn't happen, ana. >> attorney general letitia james spoke yesterday about trump's appearances over the last few days. take a listen to this. >> i will not be bulied and so mr. trump -- the donald trump show is over. this was nothing more than a political stunt. a fund-raising stop, and now we can continue to go forward with our trial, and we are confident that justice will be served. >> what do you make of her comments and what do you see as the impact of trump being in court the last few days? >> i think this was a tactical error on the part of attorney general james. she is already vulnerable to the repeated attacks that this is politically motivated, even if it is not, she opened herself up to that by campaigning on the repeated statement that she was going to go after trump. and therefore, i think this

statement was not wise. she should have remained silent and allowed him to open himself up to these sorts of arguments by others rather than stepping in right here. but that said, you know, it's very hard when there is a defendant like the former president who plays to the media to remain silent and not try to counter his message that he's delivering. >> all right, thank you so much, rebecca roiphe and lindsey reiser for that conversation. and now to more legal developments for donald trump, this time in georgia. this afternoon lawyers for his co-defendant in the fulton county case, sidney powell will be back in the fulton county courthouse accusing the district attorney of misconduct. this as "the atlanta journal-constitution" reports that prosecutors could consider plea deals for a number of the defendants in this election interference case the let's bring in nbc news correspondent blayne alexander for us in atlanta, and blayne, first let's talk about the sidney powell

government. what can we expect in court today? >> well, ana, we're already seeing a lot of movement this morning. let's start with that hearing that we're expecting at 1:30 p.m. essentially sidney powell's attorneys are trying to get the entire thing dismissed. they're saying d.a. fani willis and her team basically have evidence she was not involved in the coffee county data breach. the d.a.'s office just filed their brief in response to this. there's something that complicates this for sidney powell's legal team, that's the guilty plea last week of fellow co-defendant scott hall who essentially pleaded guilty and in that guilty plea essentially admitted that sidney powell did, in fact, enter into a contract with the team that breached the data down in coffee county. this is just a small example of the kind of complications that you see when you're talking about a number of different co-defendants together fighting some of the same changes. but at the same time that all of this is happening, ana, we are

seeing a flurry of movement from the d.a.'s office. they essentially put in motion filings asking for out of state testimony for this trial from chesebro and powell in a couple of weeks. the d.a. is seeking from boris epshteyn, linwood among other people. the reason we know this is because in order to seek out of state testimony in fulton county, two judges have to sign off on it. the fact that we know that out of state testimony is being sought. >> it makes you wonder what that could mean. let's talk about this new rerting according to two legal sources who spoke to the atlanta journal constitution, at least a handful of the 18 defendants have received offers from the d.a.'s office or prosecutors have at least touched base with their attorneys to gauge their general interest in striking a deal for a reduced charge in

exchange for their cooperation. what more do we have on this? >> you know, i think it's very possible, ana, that we could see more of those to come. we're talking about we already saw one guilty plea, one plea deal taken from scott hall. that happened last week. so we know that the prosecutor's team is going to put together some plea deal offers for sidney powell and chesebro and present those to them well. still tbd on what exactly that looks like. when we talk aboue cases with multiple defendants, it's in the pros's best interests to offer plea deals to some of the lower level defendants. those who are accused of lesser crimes, offer them deals and then kind of saver the trial, send the people with more counts against them to trial. it also stands to reason that in those plea deals it also comes in exchange for future honest testimony, and that's something that could bolster their cases further in the future as well. important to mention the d.a.'s office is not commenting on all of this. >> blayne alexander, thank you is much for staying on top of

we're back with breaking news overseas, nearly 50 civilians were killed by a russian missile strike. this is in the kharkiv region of ukraine. that makes it one of the deadliest attacks on civilians since this war began. russia did not immediately comment on the accusations here, but has denied targeting civilians. president zelenskyy called it a demonstrably brutal crime and said he plans to talk to european leaders about strengthening ukraine's air defenses. now, back here in the u.s., a dramatic reversal from the white house as the u.s. faces a

surg crossings at the southern border, and now the biden administration is announcing new plans to waive dozens of federal laws to make it easier to build new sections of a border wall in texas. president biden had previously promised to stop construction of the border wall that started under president trump. nbc news senior white house correspondent gabe gutierrez joins us. the president had vowed not to build another foot of wall. what are we learning from the white house on this decision? >> reporter: yes, during the 2020 campaign, the president said that and also hours after taking office in 2021, he actually signed an executive order where he said that building a massive wall that spans the entire southern border is not a serious policy solution. quote, it is a waste of money that diverts attention from genuine threats to our homeland security." but as you mentioned, overnight, by learned that the biden administration is asking to

waive 26 federal laws such as the clean air act, to allow border wall construction in star county, texas. now, the white house is highlighting that this project was actually announced back in late june, but the news here is that these environmental regulations are being waived apparently in an effort to speed up the construction of this wall, and for its part, customs and border protection says that this is federal money that was appropriated by congress in 2019. but the context is important here, ana, an increasing amount of pressure is now coming also from democratic officials in northern cities that are seeing this large migrant influx, especially in places like new york and chicago, which we've been reporting on, ana. >> okay, gabe gutierrez thank you for that update from the border. and now to what appears to be the biggest health care strike in history, 75,000 workers for kaiser permanente, the largest not for profit health care provider in the country took to the picket lines

yesterday. now, this includes nurses, pharmacists, x-ray and lab technicians. they're pushing for higher pay and more staff, but now patients are feeling the impact with surgeries and other procedures canceled since workers are off the job. nbc's tom costello is at a kaiser facility in d.c. with the latest. >> the union and kaiser of course have been working on this for months in negotiations for months, but they still haven't come to an agreement, and now their contract has expired, and so the union has walked off the job. 75,000 workers are off the job. the biggest sticking point appears to be pay. they both acknowledge they are under staffed. the union says they're burned out, and now we're seeing the effects of this strike, some elective procedures being postponed. >> this morning a big union is turning up the heat on kaiser permanente, the country's largest not for profit health care provider, tens of thousands

of workers walking off the job for three days as contract talks stall from virginia -- >> people got into health care because they wanted to take care of patients and they're just stretched too thin. >> reporter: to denver. >> everybody's getting depressed. everybody's quitting because they can't handle it, you know. it's just a lot of work. >> reporter: to sacramento. >> we are here because they have been dealing with the sacrifices caused by kaiser per men ta. >> on strike, pharmacists, optometrists, experts and lab technicians demanding more pay to offset inflation and more staff. kaiser patient, 13 million of them, can sometimes wait months for a primary care appointment and hours waiting in an er. >> people are just plain worn out. covid was a nightmare for three years ago, and we're still not done. >> reporter: most doctors and rns are not on strike. >> we're committed to addressing

the staffing crisis but equally committed to addressing the affordability crisis. that's the issue at the table. >> reporter: kaiser says hillary clintons and clintons and . >> it was heartbreaking to get the news yesterday that it's been canceled when it was already rescheduled once. >> tiffany yong's 17-month-old son caden was supposed to have tubes placed in his ears today to relieve chronic ear infections and severe pain. now that's been postponed until december. >> he's just in pain, and it's horrible to see him, and i know like it's a minor surgery, but to a parent and seeing your baby hit his ears and crying, it's heartbreaking. >> importantly this is a three-day strike, really a demonstration of solidarity and strength on the part of the union, and the union says if they don't reach a full agreement, in november they could stage an even longer strike, perhaps ten days. again, right now, the biggest

sticking point is how much of a pay hike the union actually gets, back to you. >> and you see the real life impacts, thank you, tom costello. up next, disturbing video, a beloved public advocate killed in a seemingly random stabbing attack along a city street. the latest on the search for the suspect. and new developments in a case that captivated listeners of the serial podcast, anan syed's future in the hands of maryland's top court right now. maryland's top court right now it cleans better, and doesn't leave behind irritating residues. and it's gentle on her skin. tide free & gentle is epa safer choice certified. it's got to be tide. if you have moderate to severe crohn's disease skyrizi is the first and only il-23 inhibitor that can deliver clinical remission and endoscopic improvement. serious allergic reactions and an increased risk of infections or a lower ability to fight them may occur. tell your doctor if you have an infection or symptoms,

welcome back, president biden just announced plans to forgive $9 billion in student loan debt in what he's calling fixes to current programs. he says this will help 125,000 borrowers including those who work in public service, jobs like teachers, nurses, firefighters, low income borrowers who have been making payments for at least 20 years, and those with a total or permanent disability. now, this comes as the white house explores new paths for loan forgiveness after the supreme court struck down the president's landmark plan back in june. the president's saying the fight's not over. >> my administration will continue to use every tool at our disposal to help ease its burden of student debt. so more americans can be free do achieve their dreams. >> it is an uncertain time if you're a student. the cost of college is still going up, plus the supreme court gutting affirmative action in college admissions. i recently sat down with a

diverse group of high school seniors to see how they're navigating all of this as they apply for college. here's part of our conversation. >> i want to start with just a show of hands, how many in this room plan to go to college? raise your hand. everybody. i guess i'm not surprised. why is it important for you to go to college right out of high school versus entering the work force? >> i think a college degree is a tangible and palpable way to show that i'm ready, i'm experienced, and i can make an impact. >> we have this awesome diverse group in this room. we just had the supreme court decision that strikes affirmative action in the college admissions process. how do you think that impacts you and your plans? >> as an asian person myself, there's a very strong culture of it back in my home country and south korea, a lot of after school extracurricular

activities are focused on college prep and going to college, and to have that divide where some people are not afforded that or it's simply not a cultural notion for them, i just think that the striking down of affirmative action was very harmful. >> jesus, you called it intriguing. >> yeah. >> why? >> some colleges have an incentive of perpetuating the system but in a different way. it's through the essays now that they want to have a more personalized and more, you know, specific almost referral of who you are because what diversity really is is it isn't what you see, it isn't the visual, but it's really here. >> and you said that you don't believe that this decision necessarily impacts you personally negatively. how do you see it? >> for me being able to attend college in america is a huge privilege to me, it's recognized by my family back in india because they think it's such a huge opportunity. so i have been preparing for it

myself, but i think it is a disadvantage to those who have already been affected by, you know, their race in terms of college admissions. >> a show of hands if you think race should be allowed as a consideration in the college admissions process? you all do. >> leila, you had called this supreme court decision a problem morally. >> the reason is becomes a moral issue is because i do inherently benefit from it. personally i identify as half asian, half white. i think it's an inherent problem in our society of we've had so much systemic racism that perpetuates this inability for specifically black and hispanic people to attend colleges. >> i think the supreme court ruling to strike affirmative action from colleges is just a very optimistic ruling on their part because the entire point was to create equity in a time where people were not as equal as they could be. >> is it an equal playing field? >> it's definitely not an equal

playing field. i feel like learning more about other culture ask other people, and let's say we have a group discussion in class, i like to see other people's point of views and how they view a situation and for me i could learn from that. >> it's really important to see diverity in the colleges you go to because it's not just the color of your skin thing. it's a mind-set. it's sharing cultures, and it's really important for universities to take it into account. >> like i've seen many essay prompts being posted from universities that really emphasize the idea of race and how that's influenced you and impacted you within your academic career, and i definitely find hope in it because if you click a box, right, which was the debate, you know, how much can clicking a box really tell of a student, of their shared experience. >> what factors are going into your thinking in considering where you're applying to school? >> a lot of it financial aid and financial planning is a huge

part. >> how many of you feel like that's a factor in where you're going to be applying? show of hands? everybody? >> yeah. >> cost is a big one. >> my parents and i have sat down and had this conversation, and they've made sure that i understand that going to college is an investment in my own future. >> does it matter what you study in terms of the career you pursue because of the costs of college, because of the potential loans you'll have to pay off? >> i think it definitely matters what you study because there's this idea that you can go to college and just study your passion, but because you -- because you're investing in your future, you really have to focus more on what job will allow you to pay that off. >> is anybody here planning to just follow their passion and hope the rest just works out? no? show of hands? >> you have said cost is a major factor for you. >> it is something that worries

me a lot because it's going to be something that affects me after i graduate. >> and college is the investment, you know. it's something that you're putting a lot of work towards now, you're going to put a lot of money towards, and you're going to need that degree later, but there is a limit for me of where i can say, okay, this is a worthy investment. >> my dad has always told my brother and i, if you get into harvard, that's great, if rutgers gives you a full ride, guess where you're going. >> those students are such an interesting group, so engaged, so intelligent, and determined to get that college education, even with the financial barriers that exist. so you may be wondering how expensive is it anyway these days to go to college. tuition and fees at a public in state school is going to run about $10,000 a year. double for out of state. if you're looking at a private college, we're talking 40 to 50

k, even more at the most elite schools. and, again, this is per year. not even including room and board and books. so you're talking tens of thousands, hundreds of thousands of dollars going into education and potentially having to pay back those student loans afterwards. i want to thank everybody over there, especially those stude s. such an impressive group. now to tennessee, justin jones, one of the tennessee three, filed a federal lawsuit challenging his expulsion from the house in april. and the suit was filed against tennessee house speaker kevin sexton and others arguing that the moves to block jones from speaking during the debate violated free speech rights. jones was reappointed and then re-elected to the state house after he was expelled. next on "ana cabrera reports," streaming sticker shock. get ready for price hikes. plus, looking for laughs

$17.99 a month? >> what are we paying for? >> reporter: starting next week, ad free tiers of hulu and disney plus will cost an extra $3 a month, while nbc universal owned peacock has already raised the price for both subscription plans by as much as $2. and netflix could be next. "the wall street journal" reports according to people familiar with the matter the streaming giant is looking into charging more for its ad-free service after the hollywood actors strike ends. while netflix declined our request for comment, industry experts say the move to increase prices is no plot twist. >> the price hikes are about taking these services that are losing a lot of money and trying to make them profitable. and the fact that it coincides with the end of the strikes is not a coincidence. >> reporter: with studios and streamers looking to end the more than 90-day long actors strike, actors say the new contracts with sag-aftra and the writers union could cost hollywood hundreds of millions

of dollars. some customers feel they're having to foot the bill. >> immediate reaction is anger because it is, like, how much more can you possibly ask from us? >> reporter: the higher prices may just be the beginning. next year, more streamers are expected to crack down on password sharing. during an earnings call, disney's ceo bob iger said they'll address the issue in 2024. the company owns streaming services hulu, espn plus and disney plus. it comes after netflix said its shutdown on sharing helped add almost 6 million new subscribers. now with the actors strike putting hollywood on hold, studios are hoping to keep revenue streaming. so how can you save some money? you can look into subscription bundles. either through the streamers themselves or through your cell phone or internet provider. keep in mind, many price hikes are for premium tiers, so if it is too costly, it might be a good time to downgrade. another thing experts say to look out for is shrinkflation

hitting streaming. they say while prices are going up for a lot of the services, the viewing options likely won't change, they could get smaller, so make sure you're not paying more for less. back to you. >> or just accept the ads and pay a little bit less, right? don't have to watch the ads. joe fryer, thank you. that's going to do it for us today. thank you for being here. i'll see you tomorrow, same time, same place. until then, i'm ana cabrera reporting from new york. jose diaz-balart picks up our coverage right now. good morning. it is 11:00 a.m. eastern, 8:00 a.m. pacific. i'm jose diaz-balart. overnight, a striking announcement from the biden administration. how it plans to construct a new border wall in reaction to record migrant crossings. breaking this morning, ukraine's president says nearly 50 civilians have been killed in a missile strike on a grocery store. back home, on capitol hill, a battle is brewing over
