i-66 express lane project. now to late developments in the story that's been building since this time friday. >> the white house going on offense today in response to those first criminal charges in special counsel robert mueller's investigation into russian meddling in our election, arguing none of today's revelations point to collusion between russia and the president or his campaign. former trump campaign manager paul manafort and manafort aide rick gates now face a dozen charges each. another former campaign adviser has already entered a guilty plea. nbc's blaine alexander now with a 30-second recap of the charges against all three men. >> reporter: former campaign adviser george papadopoulos secretly pleaded guilty earlier this month to lying to the fbi. the plea agreement said he was communicating with a kremlin-connected russian who promised dirt on hillary clinton, then lied about it all to

manafort and gates are accused of lobbying for pro-russian ukrainians and not paying taxes on tens of millions of dollars. they're facing 12 charges including conspiracy against the united states, conspiracy to launder money, and making false and misleading statements. the indictment makes no mention of president trump or russian meddling in the election. >> for more reaction to all of this and what's next for paul manafort and rick gates, let's turn to leon harris. he's at the live desk with the latest. leon? >> reporter: well, jim, we're learning that paul manafort will address the charges against him tomorrow. for now he and rick gates are on the house detention. a federal judge considers both of them flight risks because of their connections to foreign governments. now, manafort can only leave to meet with his lawyers, go to court, keep a doctor's appointment or go to worship. he has to report by phone every day. he also posted a $10 million bond. similar deal for gates. the judge said his bond had at $5 million. he has to report t

a couple interesting reactions to talk about now. the president's chief of staff addressed the indictments on fox news tonight. take a listen. >> all of the activities as i understand it that they were indicted for was long before they ever met donald trump or had any association with the campaign. but i think the reaction of the administration is let the legal justice system work, everyone's innocent till -- presumed innocent and we'll see where it goes. >> reporter: here's another reaction. at a book signing in illinois tonight hillary clinton did not respond to appeals for her take on the charges. instead, she pointed reporters there to go to her new book, saying, "i have a great chapter on russia in here." both manafort and gates are due back in federal court on thursday. at the live desk i'm leon harris. doreen, back to you. another piece of the russian election meddling story will continue to play out tomorrow. executives from facebook, twitter, and google will all be testifying before a senate committee on capitol hill. they will testify that an

estimated 126 million americans received russian-backed material on facebook during the 2016 campaign. and facebook says it was likely difficult or impossible for users to tell who was behind that stuff. one week from tomorrow virginia will pick its next governor. and tonight there's major pushback over a new tough attack ad against republican hopeful ed gillespie. watch this. >> run! the ad depicts minority children running from a pickup truck with a confederate flag and a gillespie bumper sticker. it ends with scenes from charlottesville and the suggestion that voters "reject hate." a pac called the latino victory fund is behind this spot. not the campaign of democratic hopeful ralph northam. >> gillespie promised voters in loudoun county tonight that he'll get virginia's economy back on track if h

next weekend. he got a little help from florida senator marco rubio. rubio finished second to donald trump in virginia's gop primary last year. tonight he told voters gillespie would be all about them. >> he's ready to get to work on day one for you. not to be a part of some national debate society. not to be a part of the poison that seems to infect every era of our politics these days. but to be here as a governor to solve problems for you. >> one woman was escorted out after getting up on stage ahead of senator rubio's comments. there were also a couple of dozen peaceful protesters outside. northam will have help on the campaign trail this week in arlington. new jersey senator cory booker will join him at an event on wednesday. the democrat has a huge lead in a new poll out tonight. quinnipiac university has him ahead of gillespie 53 to 36% among likely voters. only 7% of people asked hadn

made up their minds yet. today's poll has a margin of error of just over four percentage points. turning to our weather now and another cold night tonight. but will we get some sunshine to start off halloween? >> that's the question. doug's got the latest. >> yeah. the answer to that is yes, we're watching another system make its way on through. it's another cold front. all it's going to do is allow us to continue on this cooler trend. but one thing it's also helping to do right now is keep our temperatures on the -- from really tanking as they would do if we just had clear skies. we're watching this front right here. back to the west. temperaturewise right now as a result of this we're actually staying a little bit warmer but we are going to start to cool. only 51 degrees right now d.c., 54 hagerstown. the cooler air will settle on in here for tomorrow morning. another chilly night overnight into early tomorrow. tracking your halloween. i'm going to take you hour by hour. who wants the 70s back? we've got some of those coming into the forecast as well. before the weekend. the weekend, however. >> that doesn't sound

try to talk to my son and my wife, get out of here. >> reporter: eugene's wife grabbed a baseball bat to defend him from the attack. one of the men snatched it from her and started hitting eugene with it. meanwhile, she grabbed her phone and dialed 911. and then they started stabbing you? >> yes. here. over here. here. >> reporter: the female suspect pulled out a gun and allegedly said -- >> i going to kill you. >> reporter: they drove away in a black honda civic with a yellow stripe on the side and then police showed up. eugene hopes officers catch them. >> i don't want it that happen to nobody. >> reporter: in woodbridge, shomari stone, news 4. >> that is crazy. next at 11:00, house of cards folding. but the bigger story is the controversy surrounding kevin spacey. not just for allegations of sex abuse but for how he responded. and now revelations raising questions about a rescue a

tonight there is scandal swirling around actor kevin spacey. a fellow actor has accused the hollywood star of sexual misconduct. >> spacey allegedly forced himself onto the future broadway star anthony rapp when rapp was just 14 years old. and as kate snow reports tonight, spacey's response to that allegation has triggered a backlash of its own. >> i will not -- >> reporter: the show kevin spacey is best known for, "house of cards," will end after a sixth season netflix announced today. the two companies behind the hit show said in a sten

allegations against spacey and that executives met this afternoon with cast and true to ensure that they continue to feel safe and supported. kevin spacey was a 26 kraerld on broadway when a 14-year-old boy also appearing on broadway told buzzfeed spacey invited him to his apartment. he picked me up like a groom picks up a bride over the threshold, actor anthony rapp said, and then he lays down on top of me. rapp, who's 3we69 known for rent and now on "star trek discovery," told nbc news he came forward now standing on the shoulders of the many courageous women and men woof been speaking out. spacey responded on social media, "i'm beyond horrified to hear his story. i honestly do not remember the encounter but if i did behave then as he describes i owe him the sincerest apology for what would have been deeply inappropriate drunken behavior." but the statement went on. with spacey revealing for the first time publicly that he's had relationships with both men and women. "i choose now t

man," he wrote. "that language brought an avalanche of criticism. "i am sorry that kevin only saw fit to acknowledge his truth when he thought it would serve him," actor zachary quinto treated. >> no, no, no, you do not get to choose to hide under the rainbow, wanda sykes wrote. >> the fact that he responded the way he did and also conflating it with him coming out as gay has really only made this scandal worse. >> that was kate snow reporting. fallout from the deadly violence in schwartzvilcharlott forcing a historic alexandria church to remove two plaques of american military figures including one of the fathers of our country. george washington founded christ church and confederate general robert e. lee worshiped there. the plaques rest on a prominent altar wall of the church. the rector of the church says she doesn't want to erase history, just create a more welcoming place. >> we want to p

tell the story of their religious history. we're very proud of the history of having our country's founder as a parishioner here at our church. >> church leaders say they will keep the small plaques noting the washington and lee family. the washington plaque will remain until the church decides where to put them in the coming months. new tonight, officials are raising questions about that incredible rescue story we heard last week about two women lost at sea for five months. now the coast guard says the women never activated their emergency beacon. the "uss ashland" found the pair along with their two dogs about 900 miles southeast of japan. the beacon was on board. it communicates with satellites and sends a location to rescuers. but the women told the coast guard they never activated it because they never felt they were in real danger or that they would die within 24 hours. ocean navigators say oth

leesburg, 46 in manassas. it will be cooler than this tomorrow night as we do see clear skieds and calm winds tomorrow night. nothing on the radar. you notice a couple of things. first off our big storm moving up through the north and east. here's another storm coming through. notice the front but also notice the rain just kind of fizzling out as it moves our way. it's just the reinforcing shot of cool air coming in from the west and that just means for us temperatures will be a little bit below average once again tomorrow. 44 outside the beltway. around 7 578 a.m. a cool start. 47 by 9:00. but a lot of sunshine i think tomorrow. sunny day on your tuesday, sunny day for halloween for those kids getting out. 630 degrees, chilly start but sunny and cool in the afternoon. average high temperatures in the mid 60s. this is just a little bit below average. as we move on through the next few days we'll stay there right on through wednesday but tomorrow night stepping out around 5:00. 59 degrees. 55 by 7:00, 52 by 9:00. for you folks in the suburbs farther out i think you're already in the 40s by around

this week. defensive lineman matt ionitis needing surgery for a fractured hand. he could be back in a few weeks. the injuries a problem. the losses even worse. the redskins dropping three of their last four and have a tough test at seattle this sunday. this team p using the injuries as an excuse. >> just suck it up and keep playing and just try to win some games. that's it. that is the main goal, just not feel sorry for ourselves and go out there and play. not make injuries an excuse. just execute. >> next week is a must win. definitely. got to win at all costs. we can't lose. because if we lose that puts us behind the 8 ball a lot. we've got to make sure we get in w. somehow, some way we've got to pull it out. the nationals also already moving on from last season's successes and failures. today they announced the hiring of david martinez. most recently the bench coach for the chicago cubs. the two agreed to a three-year deal with an option for a
