Americans are reacting to the explosive ruling across the country. Protests taking over streets in major cities from coast to coast. Mostly peaceful, but in breonnas hometown, some pockets of violence erupting in louisville. Were going to hear from the attorney for Breonna Taylors family, benjamin crump, in just a moment. First, alex perez starts us off in louisville where two Police Officers were shot last night. Good morning, alex. Reporter good morning, george. A busy night of clashes between police and protesters here. The reaction to the grand jury decision was almost immediate, crowds taking to the streets. Overnight, demonstrators taking to the streets in louisville, clashing with police, setting multiple small fires and smashing a bus stop in the downtown area. Officers arresting almost 100 people. At least two louisville officers shot. One undergoing surgery after being struck in his abdomen. The other shot in the thigh. The Kentucky Governor deploying the National Guard to the city after the mayor declared a state of emergency ordering a 72hour overnight curfew. Im asking everybody, please, go home. Reporter the protests coming after a grand jury declined to charge three Police Officers for killing Breonna Taylor during a botched raid at her home in march. According to kentucky law, the use of force by mattingly and cosgrove was justified to protect themselves. Reporter former officer Brett Hankison was charged with three counts of first degree wanton endangerment, not for firing the shots that killed breonna but for recklessly shooting into a neighboring apartment. He was booked and released on 15,000 bail. This Instagram Post from breonnas sister, sister, i am so sorry. Protesters on the ground reacting to the grand jurys decision to not charge anyone for her death with anger and disappointment. The only words i can say is i just dont understand why. Its not enough. Reporter many also raising serious questions about the investigation. The attorney general saying his investigation found that the raid was not executed as a noknock warrant as previously reported. The statements that were made by officers there the night or the morning of march 13th show that they did knock and announce. The important point here is that information was corroborated by another witness who was in close proximity. Reporter but this contradicts officer mattinglys own account of what happened that night. The first bang on the door, did not announce. I think after that we did. Reporter this backed up by kenneth walker, breonnas boyfriend. He was inside the apartment at the time of the raid and he says thats why he fired a shot in selfdefense. The attorney general also declined for now to release the grand jury report or even reveal any details about the grand jury itself raising questions about the racial makeup of the group that decided to not charge any of the officers with breonnas death. Breonnas family settled a civil suit with the city just last week, and now saying, the charges fall far short of what constitutes justice. President trump and joe biden reacting to the announcement with very different responses. Well, i thought it was really brilliant. Kentucky attorney general, Daniel Cameron, is doing a fantastic job. I think hes a star. My heart goes out to her mother, and i understand theres protests that are started. They should be peaceful. Do not sully her memory by engaging in any violence. Reporter and the attorney general notes there is still an ongoing federal investigation into breonnas case to determine if that warrant was properly obtained and if her civil rights from violated. Robin . All right, alex. Thank you. Now the emotional reactions across the country to that grand jury decision. The Fatal Police Shooting of Breonna Taylor has been a central theme of protests calling for Police Reform this year. Steve osunsami joins us with more on the National Call for change. Good morning, steve. Reporter good morning to you, robin. Those calls for Police Reform are growing louder after this case. 150 days and nothing changed. All Breonna Taylor reporter they were rising up and saying her name in protests overnight across the country. In new york, chicago, atlanta, you name the city. In portland, things got violent when the marchers threw firebombs at police, and in buffalo, someone driving this truck tore through a crowd of marchers and hit someone on a bicycle. Whoa whoa reporter the people who were marching peacefully were able to find and stop the driver. Get his license plate. Reporter upset doesnt begin to describe the feeling of Many Americans, many black americans in particular, who feel that the officers who killed Breonna Taylor should have been charged with murder. The one officer facing any charges at all is only in trouble because hes accused of firing bullets into apartments of neighbors who were white. This was expected by many people, and many people are sort of really sitting with the fact that the system that killed Breonna Taylor can never deliver justice for her killing. Reporter from lebron james in the nba, we want justice for breonna, yet justice was met for her neighbors apartment walls and not her beautiful life. From former nfl quarterback colin kaepernick, the white supremacist institution of policing that stole Breonna Taylors life from us must be abolished for the safety and wellbeing of our people. But there are also voices who are speaking out for the police this morning, including a former head of louisvilles naacp. When they entered the apartment, they were shot at. One of them was hit. They had the right and were justified in defending themselves. As i have said many times before, its unfortunate that this young lady was killed, and i grieve for her. Many of us in this community grieve for her. Reporter theres a feeling in some corners of this country that justice continues to fail black families when it comes to police interactions. With black men walking or running away as theyre being gunned down by white Police Officers. But taylors death underlined that black women are dying this way too. She was an emt. She made her living saving lives. Very much like black men, black women are at a higher risk of dying at the hands of police, nearly one and a half times more likely than white women and theyre more likely to be killed in their own home. Taylors family said, if you believe this morning that justice is being served in this case, imagine if this daughter was yours. In hindsight, we now know the police should never been at this young womans door. And heres whats at the heart of the anger. There is no one who can reasonably argue that Breonna Taylor did anything to deserve the bullets that were fired into her apartment that took her life. Michael . Thank you, steve. Joining us now is the attorney for Breonna Taylors family, ben crump. Mr. Crump, thank you so much for joining us this morning. Thank you, michael. Thank you for having me. And we know that this verdict is far from the murder charges breonnas mother tamika called for. What was her reaction, and how is breonnas family doing this morning . Theyre outraged and offended because like me and my cocounsels, they want to know that attorney general Daniel Cameron even presented any evidence for Breonna Taylor in that grand jury proceeding. And if so, what was it because how did they come up with a result like this . He talked about transparency. Well, show us what you presented to the grand jury because obviously Breonna Taylor did not have a voice in that proceeding. According to the attorney general, no charges were filed against the two officers who shot breonna because the investigation found that the officers didnt shoot first and they were justified in returning fire after taylors boyfriend fired at them. What is your response to that . Everybody has said, breonna did not have a gun. Breonna did not pose a threat to the police. So for you now to say because her boyfriend kenny walker who has a right to the second amendment, if you believe every citizen has rights and that includes black people, then she had every right to be in her Apartment Living and breathing and not be shot and killed by the police just because they executed an illegal, unconstitutional noknock warrant based on a lie because we cant forget that Daniel Cameron never presented the context of why the police were at her apartment in the first place. It was based on a lie. One officer was charged, but not for endangering breonna, but for endangering her neighbors. So does that surprise you . It underscores what i believe, michael, and what i continue to argue whether its jacob blake, george floyd and any of these cases, there seems to be two justice systems in america. One for White America and one for black america, and anybody out there, not just black people, but anybody who has a daughter, anybody who has children, this grand jury proceeding is a grave injustice. The fbi is getting involved now. It is possible they could still be charged, right . It is very possible they still could be charged. The fbi is investigating. Also, were encouraging that wanton endangerment charges should be levied because bullets went into Breonna Taylors apartment. Doesnt her life matter . We think it should be increased there, and also for the black neighbors and thats why people are marching and protesting, because they feel like Daniel Cameron did not represent Breonna Taylors life in that grand jury proceeding. He never mentioned her name in the indictment. And speaking of protests, protests did break out overnight. Some peaceful, some not. Two officers were even shot. What is your message for those who are angry and who are out in the streets . Even though its righteous anger and Breonna Taylors family is outraged, her mother continues to encourage peaceful protest. She said, Breonna Taylor would not have condoned any violence whatsoever, and so lets respect the legacy of Breonna Taylor. Now more than ever, we all need to respect the legacy of Breonna Taylor because obviously it wasnt respected in that grand jury proceeding. Mr. Ben crump, thank you so much for joining us this morning. Appreciate your time, and please send our best to breonnas family. Thank you. Thank you, brother. And of course, so many questions, george, how they came to this conclusion. So kentuckys governor and louisvilles mayor asking for the attorney general to release the information that the grand jury had to make their decision. Yeah. Well see if that comes out soon. We hope the violence we hope the violence stays down in the meantime. Absolutely. We go to the white house where President Trump is under fire for going where no president has gone before, refusing to commit to a peaceful transfer of power if he loses the election. Our senior White House Correspondent cecilia vega tracking the fallout overnight. Good morning, cecilia. Reporter never in the history of this country has there not been a peaceful transfer of power after a president ial election. But now President Trump is suggesting he might not accept the Election Results if he is not the winner. The Stunning Exchange from the white house podium came with less than six weeks to go until election day, and voting already under way in some states. Will you commit to making sure that there is a peaceful transferral of power after the election . Well have to see what happens, you know that. Reporter a first, the president of the United States refusing to say outright that he would commit to a peaceful transfer of power, not once, but twice. Do you commit to making sure there is a peaceful transfer of power . Get rid of the ballots and well have a very peaceful we wont have a transfer. There will be a continuation. Reporter president pedaling his unfounded claim that voting by mail leads to widespread fraud. There is no evidence of that. This after earlier in the day he said he wants a speedy confirmation for his Supreme Court pick because he expects the high court to resolve the election outcome. I think this will end up in the Supreme Court. I think its very important to have a ninth justice. Reporter as he slips in the polls over his handling of the coronavirus, President Trump upping his unfounded attacks on the elections integrity. The election is rigged. The democrats are trying to rig this election. Reporter overnight, joe biden stunned. What country are we in . Look, he says the most irrational things. I i dont know what to say, but it does surprise me. Reporter and republican senator mitt romney tweeting, any suggestion that a president might not respect this constitutional guarantee is both unthinkable and unacceptable. And just a day before the president made this comment, his own attorney general, bill barr, said what the country has going for it more than anything else is the peaceful transfer of power, and we should be doing everything to support that confidence. George, the aclu also weighing in this morning saying the president s remarks should trouble every american calling the peaceful transfer of power essential to a functioning democracy. The core message of the president s campaign right now is that mailin voting is illegitimate, but all the evidence suggests over years and years that its not susceptible to widespread fraud. Reporter exactly. There are five states where this universal mailin voting that the president is opposed to has already been in place. Four states working on adding it for this election all because of the pandemic and concerns over health, the health of people voting in person. But as you said, george, no evidence of widespread voter fraud related to this type of voting, but that is not stopping the president ramping up these attacks as we get closer and closer to election day. Cecilia vega, thanks very much. Robin . And george, now were going to celebrate the life of Chicago Bears hall of fame running back gayle sayers. Nfl commissioner Roger Goodell spoke highly of sayers saying he was an electrifying and elusive runner who thrilled fans every time he touched the ball.

Williams who portrayed gayle in the movie paying tribute to the legend writing, the role was, quote, a true honor and gayle was an extraordinary human being with the kindest heart.

We continue with the latest on the coronavirus emergency as the top experts with an urgent warning in that intense hearing on the hill. The president threatening to overrule the scientists at the fda on those expected new guidelines for vaccine makers. Mary bruce joins us now from washington with more on that. Good morning, mary. Reporter good morning, robin. Well, six months into this pandemic, 200,000 americans dead, and this morning, President Trump and his administration are once again injecting politics into this pandemic undermining the nations top scientists and even questioning their motives. At the white house, President Trump undercutting his own Health Officials yet again saying, if the fda adopts stricter standards that slow down the release of a coronavirus vaccine, he might reject them. Are you okay with that . Well, i tell you what, were looking at that, and that has to be approved by the white house. We may or may not approve it. That sounds like a political move. Reporter those new rules would reportedly require monitoring trial volunteers longer, possibly delaying authorization of a vaccine until after the election, a target date trump has been touting. We think we can start sometime in october. Reporter the fda declined to comment on the president s latest statement, but just hours earlier, testifying on capitol hill the fda commissioner was adamant. They are being guided by science, not politics. Our thorough review processes and science will guide our decisions. Fda will not permit any pressure from anyone to change that. I will fight for science. Reporter 40 days until the election, the white house has been eager to paint a rosy picture of their handling of the pandemic, but on the hill wednesday, the head of the cdc, dr. Robert redfield, with a blunt reality check. A majority of our nation, more than 90 of the population remains susceptible. Reporter shortly after white house adviser scott atlas who has no background in Infectious Diseases argued thats not true. I think dr. Redfield misstated something there. Reporter he said the data redfield was referring to is old and incomplete and that he got it wrong, but the nations top top scientists are clearly fed up with being in this targeted political battle. In a Tense Exchange republican senator rand paul questioning if safety guidelines in new york have helped beat back the virus, instead writing it off as, quote, herd immunity. Theyre no longer having the pandemic because they have enough immunity in new york city to help beat back the pandemic. I challenge that, senator. Im afraid please, sir. I would like to be able to do this because this happens with senator rand all the time. You are not listening to what the director of the cdc said that in new york its about 22 . If you believe 22 is herd immunity, i believe youre alone in that. Reporter now, the experts say a vaccine could be authorized soon, but say it will likely take several more months to be widely available and distributed. They say thats not likely to happen until sometime next spring, and even then dr. Fauci cautions that a vaccine is not going to completely eradicate coronavirus. Still is a long road ahead here, george. Sure is. Okay, mary, thanks very much. Well get the latest now on the celebration of the life of Justice Ruth Bader ginsburg and the battle under way to fill her seat. Thats a live look at the Supreme Court where mourners have gathered for days to honor the judge who was a champion of equality and womens rights. As the president closes in on his pick to replace her, the announcement comes saturday. Tom llamas is at trump you tower in manhattan with a look with the leading contender. Good morning, tom. Reporter george, good morning to you. Whether he wins or loses, his decision on saturday could impact generations of americans. With a Senate Confirmation, the scales of the Supreme Court will tip 6 to 3 in the conservatives favor, and the white house is signaling right now as far as the nominees are concerned, the more conservative the better. This morning, as President Trump gets closer to selecting his Supreme Court nominee the person ill be putting up is highly qualified, totally brilliant, top of the line academic student, the highest credentials. Reporter the two top contenders now in the spotlight. Sources say its down to federal judges Amy Coney Barrett and Barbara Lagoa, and that barrett is the apparent frontrunner. A devout catholic who clerked for the conservative justice antonin scalia. Barrett is supported by religious conservatives and antiabortion activists. Her faith and how it could affect her interpretation of the law among the issues raised during her 2017 Senate Confirmation hearing for the 7th Circuit Court of appeals. The dogma lives loudly within you, and thats of concern. Its never appropriate for a judge to impose that judges personal convictions whether they derive from faith or anywhere else on the law. Reporter the 48yearold new orleans native whos a law professor at notre dame and mother of seven explaining her stance in a speech to Hillsdale College last year. But thats not a challenge just for religious people. Thats a challenge for everyone, and so i think its a dangerous road to go down to say that only religious people would not be able to separate out moral convictions from their duty. Reporter prochoice groups have raised concerns over how barrett would vote on abortion issues. Planned parenthood condemned the judges nomination to the federal bench. Since she was appointed, she hasnt issued a ruling on abortion and hasnt questioned roe v. Wades overall precedent, but critics say shes sided against rulings that strike down restrictions on abortions. Also under the microscope, barretts link to a small charismatic Christian Community called people of praise. The group telling abc news it will neither confirm nor deny if barrett is a current member, but she was listed as a former board of Trustees Member at the organizations Trinity School from 2015 to 2017 and has been named and photographed in sincedeleted online versions of the organizations magazine. According to its website, many of its members choose to make a lifetime commitment to the community, a covenant. Members are assigned a personal adviser. Men were called heads and women were called handmaids, but those titles since changed to leaders amid speculation that the group may have inspired the novel and emmyaward winning drama the handmaids tale. Is this what freedom looks like . Reporter but Margaret Atwood saying thats not accurate saying there were several inspirations. Because her notes are locked in a closed library due to covid, quote, i hesitate to say anything specific for the major influences on the book, i certainly did not confine myself to one sect or group so i dont think this can be legitimately used in that way. People of praise insisting they did not inspire atwoods story, and the organization does not take positions on political matters, legislation or constitutional interpretation. Now as for federal judge Barbara Lagoa who we mentioned at the top of the story, shes a cubanamerican from south florida, but in a sign that things may not break her way, the president did say shes on the list, but he has no plans to meet with her. George, as you mentioned, the president said he has five women on his list and they are, quote, outstanding. Tom, thanks very much.

Tiger king star Carole Baskin is being sued for defamation by the daughters of her former husband who disappeared mysteriously more than 20 years ago. Now the new docuseries is exploring new theories about the open case, and amy is here with the first look. Good morning, amy. Reporter good morning, michael. Thats right. Its called joe exotic tigers, lies and coverup, and it may offer new clues in the investigation into what happened to baskins former husband, don lewis. Whats new pussy cat whoa, oh oh reporter this morning, as Carole Baskin dances in the ballroom the family of her exhusband, don lewis, filing a defamation lawsuit against the tiger king star. I keep it inside, and wait until everybodys gone before i can break down. Reporter the family saying in the lawsuit, baskin is currently appearing in dancing with the stars and is complicit with jokes about don lewis death. For me you didnt quite kill the paso doeb doble. It was kind of sedated. Reporter lewis daughter is pushing for renewed attention on the disappearance of their father. Do you know who did this, or if Carole Baskin was involved . Reporter baskin has denied any involvement. But in the new docuseries, joe exotic tigers, lies and coverup, theyre taking a deeper dive, exploring new theories about what may have happened to don lewis. One month and a day after don lewis was reported missing, lo and behold his wife at the time went ahead and sold three properties to the handyman. The price for all three of them was 9,080. So essentially 3,000 per property. Reporter the properties reportedly valued in excess of 100,000 each. The 9,000 transaction looks a whole lot different than a 10,000 transaction, because anything over 10,000 would have to be reported with a paper trail. Reporter baskin allegedly not telling police about the sale until three years into the investigation. Baskin claims the county valued the properties higher than the true worth and that she was only trying to help kenny farr, the handyman, get into real estate. She claims he failed to keep up with payments and redeeded the properties back to her. Baskin has said she did not believe he had anything to do with dons disappearance. He has denied any knowledge in the disappearance as well. Police said they have no suspects or persons of interest. The docuseries also conducting a search for lewis body. Lo and behold, we have the k9 dogs, the cadaver dogs which are trained in human remains and they started alerting in and around the west side of that lake which is in close proximity to don lewis lake house. Theres something in that lake. Reporter the search ended without finding a body, but baskin said, there is no one who wants to have the mystery of his disappearance solved more than i do. Tiger king star joe exotic in exclusive jailhouse interviews asking for a president ial pardon after he was kwiktsd convicted of conspiring to kill baskin who was his rival. Somebody that has a little bit of influence can get to our dear president and show him that this is wrong. Reporter now lawyers for Carole Baskin say they could not comment on pending litigation, but michael, i think its safe to say there is much more to come on all of this. Oh, absolutely, amy. You can see parts one and two of joe exotic tigers, lies and coverup premiering on investigation discovery this sunday and the finale on monday. Coming up next, we have our play of the day. Play of the day. vo 2020 has been the year of the unthinkable. And millions of americans are struggling to put food on the table. So wells fargo is helping our neighbors feed their loved ones.

Hope your thursday is off to a good start. We cannot wait to talk to chris rock. One of my favorites, and tory johnson, another one of my favorites is joining us with some great deals steals for the fall, all under 20. We have a lot to get to on this busy thursday, but first, robin, we want to get to the latest on our top story this is morning. We certainly do, michael, because americans all across the country are reacting to that grand jury ruling declining to charge those three officers in the Fatal Shooting of 26yearold Breonna Taylor in her own home. Protests coast to coast, mostly peaceful, but in breonnas hometown, some pockets of violence erupting in louisville. Lets go back to alex perez who is there for us where two Police Officers were shot last night. Good morning again, alex. Reporter hey, good morning, robin. Authorities saying those two Police Officers suffered nonlifethreatening injuries. Much of the downtown here remains blocked by police. Reaction began almost immediately after that grand jury decision. Overnight, demonstrators taking to the streets in louisville clashing with police, setting multiple small fires and smashing a bus stop in the downtown area. Officers arresting almost 100 people. The protests coming after a grand jury declined to charge three Police Officers for killing Breonna Taylor during a botched raid at her home in march. According to kentucky law, the use of force by mattingly and cosgrove was justified to protect themselves. Reporter former officer Brett Hankison was charged with three counts of firstdegree wanton endangerment, not for firing the shots that killed breonna, but instead for recklessly shooting into a neighboring apartment. Hankison booked and released on 15,000 bail. This morning michael spoke with benjamin crump, the attorney for Breonna Taylors family. One officer was charged, but not for endangering breonna, for endangering her neighbors. So does that surprise you . It underscores what i believe, michael, and there seems to be two justice systems in america, one for White America and one for black america, and anybody out there not just black people, but anybody who has a daughter, anybody who has children, this grand jury proceeding is a grave injustice. Reporter and a suspect was arrested here overnight in the shooting of those two officers. Reminder, there is an ongoing federal investigation into breonnas case. George . Alex perez, thanks very much. We turn to the white house where President Trump is under fire for going where no president has gone before refusing to commit to a peaceful transfer of power if he loses the election. We want to go back to our senior White House Correspondent cecilia vega. Good morning, cecilia. Reporter george, good morning again. President trump has been ramping up the attacks on the integrity of the election, but now hes going so far as to suggest he might not accept the Election Results if he is not the winner. The Stunning Exchange from the white house podium came with less than six weeks to go until election day, and voting already under way in some states. Will you commit to making sure that there is a peaceful transferral of power after the election . We have to see what happens. You know that. Reporter a first, the president of the United States refusing to say outright he would commit to a peaceful transfer of power, not once, but twice. Do you commit to making sure there is a peaceful transfer of power . Well get rid of the ballots and well have a very peaceful there wont have a transfer. It will be a continuation. Reporter the president pedaling his unfounded claim that voting by mail leads to widespread fraud. There is no evidence of that. Overnight joe biden stunned. What country are we in . Look. He says the most irrational things. I i dont know what to say about it, but it doesnt surprise me. Reporter its not just democrats. Republican senator mitt romney is tweeting any president that does not respect this constitutional guarantee is unthinkable and unacceptable.

Reality star Kristin Cavallari talking for the first time about her split with jay cutler. Kaylee hartung has more on that. Good morning, kaylee. Reporter hey, robin, good morning to you. These two never pretended their marriage was perfect on their reality show, but this divorce came as a surprise to many fans earlier this year. Now kristin is explaining why the choice to split is the hardest decision shes ever made. This season on very cavallari reporter this morning reality tv star Kristin Cavallari breaking her silence from april split of former nfl quarterback jay cutler to peopletv. Com. It was the hardest decision ive ever made. When you work at something for so many years and nothings changing, i think you have to just make a decision, and, you know, life is short. I want to be happy. Relax. Reporter their nearly sevenyear marriage profiled across three seasons of the e show very cavallari. Talking about it for the first time, the couple who shares three young kids had been struggling for years. Saying, quote, i always thought it was interesting when people would refer to us as couple goals. I was, like, if you guys only knew. We might want to work on that prenup. Reporter cracks in their marriage apparently evidence in the last season of filming. We kept stuff private, and they didnt put it in the show. Which was good. People were speculating. Was it cheating or did something happen . She said, none of thats true. Honestly its just that arent a good fit anymore. Reporter she became a household name after starring on the hit mtv series laguna beach. The girl who got the guy. I wonder what happened in your world.

Cavallari says shes proud of herself for making this decision, and now its time for a fresh start, one that shes really excited about. For more on their story, you can go to peopletv online, and the new issue will be on stands nationwide friday. George . Thank you, kaylee. We now turn to rays of hopes for millions of people out of work. Many companies are adding jobs for the holiday season. Our chief Business Correspondent Rebecca Jarvis has the latest on how to find them. Good morning, rebecca. Reporter good morning, george. It is so needed and a lot of the hiring is happening right now. It doesnt even mean you have to leave your home. A lot of the applications can be done in a workfromhome setting. You should find out within about 48 hours of your application whether you got the job, and employers tell us numbers of these positions will become permanent work. This morning, with more than 29 million americans currently collecting unemployment benefits, new seasonal jobs more important than ever. Macys exclusively telling gma they will host a National Holiday hiring event on september 29th to fill 25,000 full and parttime roles at their Fulfillment Centers across the country for the holiday season. Walmart announcing plans to hire 20,000 employees at Fulfillment Centers as they prep for an increase in Online Shopping this holiday. The retail giant hiring for a range of roles with hourly wages of up to 23. 75. Fedex says it plans to add more than 70,000 workers and ups who has offered jobs to seasonal employees, is looking to add 100,000 this holiday. Much of the hiring happening now for roles that last three to four months. So how do you find a seasonal gig . Job seekers can apply directly on employer websites or use a free job Search Engine like indeed, glassdoor or linkedin. And making that temporary position permanent means talking upfront to your hiring manager. Let them know your intentions, that you would like to stick around longterm. Ask if there are any specific criteria that temporary workers need to live up to in order to become permanent, george, and make sure you do that conversation early on in the process because a number of these employers are making decisions early about whos going to stick around for the longterm, george. So the hiring process is starting right now. Are any of these seasonal jobs remote . Reporter well, this is the great news. A lot of them actually are this year. This is going to be a very different year for seasonal jobs. It used to be that retailers in particular would staff up for black friday. Well, this year black friday will look a lot different. Much more remote and much more online. I found a number of these positions are remote and they are for Customer Service managers so you can do everything from home. The other big difference this year will be the hours, george. People will be working different hours because of social distancing. If you are going into a location, and youre willing to work, for example, an overnight shift, that might allow you to get a job faster than someone whos more specific on which hours they need. What else can people do to find out more about these jobs online . Reporter the trick is to search for the word seasonal. Seasonal work. Always keep that in your search. Seasonal work, seasonal retail, seasonal Customer Service. As long as you keep that specific word when you are either on the website of your favorite retailer who is very likely hiring right now or one of these websites like linkedin or indeed. Com, you should be able to find these jobs, george. Important information for a lot of people. Rebecca, thanks very much. Lets go to ginger. George, we have been so busy with wildfires and hurricanes and the news cycle, we havent been able to do a gma moment, but im ready to let you smile. I think youll like this one. Listen.

Congrats on fargo and Hollywood Reporter and all that, and how great youre looking, but we want to start by asking you about Breonna Taylor, and the grand jurys decision because you have you have two daughters. Me . What was your reaction . Yes. Yes, chris. First, i want to say its great to hear your voices because i cant really see you right now. I know.

Lets just put plastic bags over ourselves and i dont know. Im of course im upset about the Breonna Taylor verdict. It seems that not only should the cops have been charged, but it seems like the whole chain of command should have, you know, been reprimanded for such a heinous act, you know, a womans life was lost for absolutely nothing, and yeah. Its, you know, yes, i have two daughters, but it wouldnt matter if i had two sons or, you know, whatever. Its just its just insane that this is something that were all used to. So thats my sense on this. No. Thats very well said, and certainly were all getting used to a lot of things as you just pointed out, that are not comfortable, and i know you have been at home like the rest of us during this quarantine, but youve managed from what i gather, to make some good out of all of that staying at home because we have a photo of you. Hollywood reporter there, and it looks like youve gotten some workouts in there. I would say so. Apparently you have a new skill that may have tributed to what were seeing here, chris . Yeah. Well, you know, its like the quarantine, what are you going to do . You have all this time, and yeah. Its i just used it to work on something i hadnt normally worked on, my body. And my mind actually. So i have been yeah. I have been kind of working out every day. I got a i got a covid tested trainer, and, you know, i i started a workout regimen, and i have a new diet, and i actually learned to swim. I had never, ever learned to swim. Wow. And its its pathetic because ive actually owned houses with pools for the last 17 years, and ive never been able to swim. Ive never been able to swim, and my kids swim, you know, all the time, and when you cant swim, and youre around people that can swim, its, like, watching people fly. You cant even believe it. Youre, like, wow. Look at them go. Thats so cool. Oh, boy. You know, i i vacationed on yachts and cant swim. Do you know what i mean . Like, what the hell is wrong with me .
