focus groups overnight, showed that voters were turned off by those types of statements. we will have to see how this all plays out in the coming days and weeks, savannah. >> we'll be watching, much come out. >> much more for you to chew over on "meet the press." we will have interviews with vp potentials for donald trump. he meet the press. kristen will have exclusive interviews a major development this morning in the 2022 deadly shooting in uvalde, texas. the former school district police chief who has been widely criticized for his response to the attack has now been arrested. he's been charged with child endangerment. priscilla thompson is in uvalde with the latest on this. good morning. >> reporter: hey, hoda. good morning. you may remember that former chief arradondo was fired shortly after the shooting, and now he is facing the criminal fall-out from the missteps of law enforcement on that fateful day. this comes after more than two years of the families of the 19 children and 2 teachers who were killed, demanding greater

accountability. this morning, the first criminal charges have been filed in connection with the tragic robb elementary shooting in texas more than two years ago. former uvalde school district police chief pete arradondo taken into custody by law enforcement and charged with abandoning and endangering children. the arrest is in connection to arradondo's role in the failed response to the shooting that killed 19 children and 2 teachers. >> we were about to give up hope. >> reporter: belinda's granddaughter celebrated her 10th birthday two weeks before she was murdered. >> i don't consider this is a happy moment. lives are still ruined because of this. unfortunately, they did not do their job. >> reporter: months after the

massacre, the uvalde school board fired him from his position. at the time, his attorney called the move an illegal and unconstitutional public lynch. he led the response from local, state and federal agencies. more than 70 minutes passed from when officers first arrived to when they finally took down the gunman. arradondo is also named in a $500 million lawsuit filed by the families of the victims last month, alongside nearly 92 texas state police, the uvalde school district and other staff. >> there was an obvious systemic failure out there. the whole world saw that. >> reporter: this after a damning department of justice report in january uncovered cascading failures of leaderships, tactic and training. jesse lost his niece that tragic day and says, while still heart broken, he's grateful for the

indictments. >> it's more than what you had before. and, so, you know, hopefully there is other people to be -- that are going to be indicted, that may be charged with a little bit more. >> yeah, priscilla, let's talk about what happens next as this case plays out in court. >> right. he was released on bond overnight. a parent of one of the victims tells us that the d.a. says there is another officer who is also facing an indictment on similar child endangerment charges. but there are nearly 400 officers that responded to the scene on that day. it is unclear if there could be any more indictments to come in the coming weeks or months. >> priscilla thompson for us there in uvalde. thank you. turning to a major decision from the supreme court yesterday that clears the way for now for emergency abortions in the state of idaho. the decision still leaves many questions about the future of abortion laws.

laura jarett is here to break it all down. good morning. >> good morning to you. the supreme court's term is almost over.ing the -- a by product of the justice as usual, they saved the biggest decisions until the very end. this case out of idaho crystallizing the stakes roe v.o years ago this week. this morning, th involved.e battle over who can get an abortion and when marches on. the supreme cour a by-product of the justices overturning roe v. wade just two years ago this week. this morning the battle over who can get an abortion and when marches on. the supreme court clearing the way for women in idaho to ts w health is in jee receive abortions when their health is in jeopardy for now. but sidestepping a more jeopard now, but sidesteppin conclusive decision on precisely what care doctors must provide conclusive decision on precisely what care doctors must provide going forward. >> going forward. i t >> i think it puts us back in h this holding pattern of uncertainty.a holding pattern of uncertainty. so, we can so we can provide emergency care for stabilization in idaho. pro care for stabilization i but we don't have the n idaho for women, but we don't have the reassurance. nce. >> and shorthand for a federal law the biden administration says requires hospitals to provide abortions if necessary to protect a woman's health. while the laws in idaho and at least six other states only allow abortion to save a woman's

life. >> we'll continue to litigate it vigorously. >> a majority of justices punting the issue to the lower courts for now. in brief, unexplained opinion, identical to the one mistakenly posted online thursday, justice alito and jackson blasting their colleagues for refusing to tackle the merits of the issue. alito saying they were swayed by the emotional and highly politicized issue. jackson writing as long as we refuse to declare what the law requires, pregnant patients will be paying the price. all this as the high court weighs into another closely watched battle, a multi billion dollar bankruptcy plan from purdue pharma. that deal thrown into uncertainty now that the justices found the plan should have shielded the sackler family from liability.

the high court will release more opinions this morning as we wait to see a decision on whether former president trump is immune from prosecution. today, however, will not be the last day. this court making a rare move to go back into july with more opinions expected monday. >> all right. down to the wire for the supreme court. thank you. americans from coast to coast are getting an early jump on the 4th of july holiday this morning. taking to the skies and highways this week. here we have a live look at the entrance of the george washington bridge right here in new york city. traffic is starting to backup already. aaa predicting 60 million people will travel by car to their holiday destination. and they will pay a little more at the pump. gas prices jumping a nickel in the last week. meantime, the tsa is predicting this could be one of the busiest travel seasons ever in our nation's airport. the worst of it today, tomorrow and wednesday, july 3rd. those are the toughest days. but there is good news. domestic airfares down 18%. >> yes, exactly.

to begin the trial in june of next year. a lawyer for the family of the victims' families tell me they feel like they're one step closer to justice. more than a year and a half since four university of idaho students were fatally stabbed in their off campus home. a date has now been set for the suspect bryan kohberger. attorneys on both sides saying they will be ready to go to trial on june 2nd, 2025. >> it makes sense that we do the trial in the summertime. >> i think it's reasonable to go ahead and pick the june of 2025 as a trial date. >> the judge proposing that start date as pretrial hearings continue to drag on. >> it is my opinion that we're getting to a point of diminishing returns. but i think this is a great step. >> the november 2022 killings of

has had a crippling impact on the auto industry. >> the hack is affecting thousands of businesses and causing a lot of frustration, along with costly delays for dealers and customers. nbc's morgan chesky has a close look for us. hey, morgan. good morning. >> reporter: hey, guys. good morning. in dealerships all across the country, the showrooms may be looking just beautiful, but i can assure you business anything but normal. forcing dealer after dealer to roll back the clock on how they do business, in some cases pulling out the old pen and paper. these added costs are adding up fast. summer is officially here, and with it, peak season for car buying. but this year there has been a major wrench thrown into the works. a massive cyberattack on the software many dealerships nationwide use for almost everything, has brought operations to a near screeching halt. >> we can't cut checks. we can't service cars.

>> at this dealership just outside l.a., the owner says paperwork is now turning a simple car sale into a halfway affair, discouraging many customers. >> here we are more than a week in. do you have any clear answers here? >> no. we're just told any day, any time, and we're just waiting like everyone else does. >> reporter: in ohio, justin bradley says his team dug up a typewriter to help fill out forms. >> we are hand doing contracts and hand doing paperwork. >> reporter: the challenging arising after cdk global says it experienced a cyberattack and proactively shut down most of our systems. cybersecurity experts say it appears to be the work of a sophisticated group in eastern group. >> will they just launch and try to replace the entire system with new software?

if they can't get some sort of ransomware settlement. >> in the meantime, experts say if you are looking to buy a car or get one serviced, contact your dealership to see what your options are. expect to visit the dmv, rather than have your dealer automatically do your registration. and be patient. dealers still have plenty of inventory. it just may take longer to drive it off the lot. >> you may find the vehicle you want. what you may have trouble doing is getting the paperwork and everything through the system as quickly as you would like. >> morgan, any indication when all the dealerships will get back online? >> yeah, sheinelle. good news overnight. cdk saying they have been able to bring a small group of their dealers back online. considering the fact they have 15,000 nationwide, even they don't know how many total businesses have been impacted here. cyber experts say it is still too early to tell if personal

data has been compromised. so at least for the time being, still a bit of a bumpy road ahead. sheinelle? >> let's get a check of the weather. >> we do have some really nice weather in the northeast today. we have a lot of sunshine. temperatures more comfortable in the upper 70s to low 80s. severe storms back through the upper mid-west. try and sunny out west with temperatures in the 70s and 80s. hotter in the desert southwest. now we get to the 4th of july. it is kind of like a week away still, so this could change a bit. the trend is things dry out on the west coast. hot in las vegas. 113 degrees. phoenix 108. best chance of seeing some storms would be back across the great lakes through the midwest, up into cleveland, western pennsylvania where we could see some storms. on the east coast, it does look sunny and hot with t

january 6th over a charge of obstruction of an official proceeding. this decision is set to have a sweeping impact on hundreds of prosecutions, but this could especially impact donald trump after he cited the case in his bid to obtain presidential immunity in the election interference case against him. laura jarrett is by my side here. you have been through some of these pages. dig a little deeper for us. >> okay. here we go. you have here a defendant in one of the january 6th cases who has been charged with a federal obstruction-related statute. he wanted the narrowest possible interpretation of that statute so that his conduct wouldn't be covered. prosecutors, who tried to stretch the statute as much as possible so it would sweep in mr. fischer as well as many other defendants, and today the high court in a divided opinion has sided with mr. fischer, narrowing the statute. it does not mean all of the january 6th cases will be tossed out, but it does put the issue back in the lower court's hands

to determine whether his conduct now meets this new rule. so we're going to continue to sift through this and understand exactly the scope of what is and isn't going to be covered, but we should mention here it is not a complete ideological shift. you actually see justice jackson joining some of the conservative colleagues in this. it was something that came out in oral argument, what was the intent of the statute that was passed after the enron scandal. the idea was that they were trying to sweep in more conduct but it was really about document destruction. when you think about what happened on january 6th, people storming the capitol, everyone remembers the images and the violence but nobody really associates it primarily with document destruction in the same way you associate a white collar crime like enron. that's where the debate had been here. the chief justice explaining that the statute is only going to apply to acts that affect the integrity or availability of evidence. so does fischer's conduct on that day affect that?

we will have to wait and see. it will continue to play out. again, as you mentioned, lester, the former president was also charged with this federal obstruction statute. his application is very different. he was not accused of storming the capitol like mr. fischer and so many others but, of course, given how they have narrowed this federal obstruction statute, of course he will try to use it to further delay the proceedings in his own case. >> which leads me to kristen welker, moderator of "meet the press" who joins us here. nothing happens in a vacuum. how does it play out of the overall spectrum of the election? >> it is a great question, lester. we have seen former-president trump try to capitalize on these cases that laura is talking about including the one that we just got from the supreme court, and he has vowed to pardon some of those who rioted, who have been charged, who have pleaded guilty to their actions on january 6th. he is trying to energize his base of supporters with that type of language. we saw that last night at the

debate. by the way, we spent so much time talking about this debate, the fact that president biden had what so many have referred to as a halting performance last night, but former-president trump spent time talking about those rioters, the people who stormed the capitol that day. so the question is how will that play politically speaking. will that alienate independent voters? will that alienate some of the voters former-president trump would need in key battleground states if he wants to win. right now polls show he has a narrow lead in battleground states and nationally within the margin of error. but this is one of those issues, lester, that for people in the suburbs, people who are in those swing states and swing counties does not play well, who are watching all of this unfold very quickly. again, may be effective at energizing his base, and the big outstanding question, what laura refers to, how might it impact the case former-president trump

is facing. that remains to be seen. again, politically speaking he has tried to use this as a weapon. >> let's bring danny cevallos, nbc legal analyst into the conversation. could it potentially mean new trials for some of these defendants? >> yes, it could. but under the facts what happened procedurally is the case has been returned to the district court's decision on it which concluded it was not a valid application of the statute. this entire case could be boiled down to one word and that word is "otherwise" and how we interpret that word, "otherwise." federal law says you can't tamper with documents to impair their use at a congressional proceeding. that's not the charge here. it is the next line, or otherwise interferes basically with the congressional proceeding. that's what this battle was. does otherwise impair mean anyway in the world that you could possibly obstruct a congressional proceeding or is it defined by the line that came immediately before it, which

speaks of tampering with documents, with evidence. the majority concluded that, no, otherwise cannot be read that broadly. justice barrett's conclusion reaches the opposite conclusion. she says, congress does what congress wants. if congress wanted to use the word otherwise and give this law this sweeping reach that could cover almost anything that obstructs a congressional proceeding, then that was their prerogative and that was their choice. so it is a really interesting look. as laura pointed out, this is split and fractured among ideological lines. you saw justice jackson joining with the majority, but ultimately this comes down to a very interesting interpretation of criminal law, whether congress has the power to simply use the word "otherwise" and cover such a giant swath of criminal activity. >> all right. let me bring in our senior washington correspondent hallie jackson. she is in atlanta where last night mr. trump participated in the first presidential debate of

this election season. i understand you are getting some reaction already from republican lawmakers to this court decision. >> reporter: that's right, specifically from congressman jim jordan, lester, obviously a close ally of former-president trump. the point danny is making about that question mark, you have the congressman praising the desituation saying, in fact, it is essentially a victory, affirmation, he says, of the rule of law and a reminder in his words that congress, not out-of-control prosecutors write the law. this is some of the first reaction we are getting from the significant case coming in from the supreme court, significant for the reasons you laid out and the political backdrop as well. new polling from several months ago suggest 70% of americans thinks that the punishment against january 6th defendants, people who went into the capitol, who stormed the capitol on that day are either fair or not harsh enough. now, obviously those numbers are not the same when you look strictly along partisan lines. but it gives you a sense of where the country is on this

moment. we can talk about here as we are in atlanta fresh off that first presidential general election debate where former-president trump is out on this. we know even last night he suggested that january 6th was a time where the world had respect for america. he down played the impact of the insurrection. he has previously called january 6th defendants hostages, warriors, et cetera. now, keep in mind, right, that jack smith, the prosecutor bringing the federal case against former-president trump, previously argued that in fact whatever the supreme court decides on fischer should not have an impact on the case against donald trump, specifically moving forward because of the fake electors' scheme. there's a lot we are waiting on here. we are out to the trump campaign for any comment on this. we will let you know the second we get it, lester. >> thank you. speaking of waiting, laura, we understand the court is going to close up for this session next monday. >> and it is going to close with a bang. >> let's talk about it. >> they have quite a bit of work left to do. obviously a lot happened today. i don't want to discount what they've done here in the fischer

case and obviously there were some other cases that were quite considered. but the one that everybody has been sort of waited with bated breath is the one that will determine the fate of the former president's case in washington, d.c. for election interference, the case whether he is immune or not from federal prosecution. because it is the court's last day we know that the immunity decision has to come on that day. we obviously don't know who is writing it. we know nothing about it, but sort of now knowing which day is coming is even new. >> and to be clear this has to do with what acts were official or not. >> exactly. he has made sort of broad arguments about blanket presidential immunity shielding him completely although his lawyers sort of walked that back. obviously jack smith tried to get the supreme court to weigh in much earlier so that the case could actually proceed to trial and be completed before the november election. but given the late date we are now seeing this is going to come out on july 1st, it seems even more unlikely. we haven't seen the opinion, but it seems even more unlikely that the timing will work out so it

could actually be completed before november 5th. >> kristen, you want to weigh in there? >> absolutely. lester, one of the big x factors of the entire campaign has been these legal cases former-president trump has been facing, four different felony cases, and he was just, of course, convicted of 34 felony counts. his legal team's strategy from the very beginning has been delay, delay, delay, and the various scenarios that laura lays out that we are potentially watching for on monday -- again, we will have to see how it unfolds. with the exception of the court siding with jack smith, it is all be certain that that case will be delayed, that the case involving january 6th and obstruction of justice, the case involving the documents -- we have seen that case get stretched out -- the case in georgia has been delayed as well. so it is very likely that the only case that we will see the conclusion of is the case in manhattan. how has that impacted him

politically? not very much. we did see initially some polls tighten in the wake of those initial verdicts that were handed out. yet they have narrowed in the wake of that, and so it is just extraordinary. this big x factor is winding up so far not to have a massive impact on the election. >> thank you all for now. that concludes this nbc "special report." we will have much more on our streaming network, nbc now, online at nbcnews.com up when i public, they say. the 4th of july is just around the corner, and an estimated 70 million americans will travel for the holiday week many of them are already taking to the roads and skies this morning. the tsa is predicting this could be one of busiest travel seasons ever at the nation's airports. nbc's maggie vespa is live with more at chicago's o'hare airport with what we can expect. maggie, good morning. >> reporter: hey, sheinelle. good morning. yeah, it is not even july yet.

and already the july 4th travel rush is on with the tsa saying they expect close to 3 million screenings today alone, and overall, summer travel is expected to get a record-breaking boost for america's birthday. with just days to go until fireworks fill the skies, july 4th travelers are already taking off at record-breaking levels. aaa predicting a record 70 million americans will travel this holiday week with some 60 million hitting the roads and another 5 million flying to their location. both totals topping last year's july 4th travel rush. overall numbers slated to smash records set before the pandemic. >> every year prior to the pandemic, travel had been moving up steadily. once 2020 hit, we fell off a cliff. for the first time, we're kind of back on that trajectory again where we should have been all along. >> airport traffic expected to peak today, tomorrow and wednesday, july 3rd. the surge coming with good news for flyers.

domestic airfares are actually down 18% from last year, averaging $263 a ticket. gas, meanwhile, jumped a nickel in the last week. but the current nationwide average of $3.50 is still six cents cheaper than a year ago. >> no matter how high gas prices are, once people have decided they're going to take a vacation, they take the vacation. >> reporter: still experts warn even the most patriotic travelers should prepare for the unexpected. america's birthday this year coming amid an onslaught of severe weather with violent storms battering the northeast this week and catastrophic flooding impacting neighborhoods in the midwest. >> everything i have in there is gone. >> reporter: and as temperatures continue to soar across the country, travel experts recommend booking morning and evening flights to avoid delays caused by heat, advice aimed at making the most of this independence day. and as always, experts recommend allowing extra time, especially if you are going through these five airports, expected to be

the busiest according to hopper during this holiday travel rush. atlanta coming in at number atlanta coming in at number one. then dallas, denver, chicago which is busy already. if you're driving, they recommend avoiding driving on july 4th at all costs, especially between 2:00 and 7:00, otherwise known as that last-minute rush to make it to the finals. >> they say pack your patience. i guess you just don't have a choice. thank you. coming up, how ryan reynolds and rob mcelhenney tricked dolly parton into promoting their new show. and why shoppers are so obsessed with dupes right now, amid the growing trend to find look-alikes from everything to home decor. vicky nguyen has budget friendly tips for your home. >> i will tell you about this trend that will revolutionize the way we shop. it's called dupe.com and rising up to help everyone get the look for less. that's next right here on "today." t no
