Nbc White House Correspondent Peter Alexander is following this story for us. Peter, good morning. Reporter good morning, we are here on the White House South Lawn where the president is preparing for a state visit. Right now he is dealing with a growing crisis over his communications with a foreign leader. It appears we may be one step closer to knowing who the president was talking to. What remains unclear today is what they were talking about and what, if any, promises were made. This morning the Washington Post citing two officials familiar with the matter reports that a whistleblower complaint made by a u. S. Intelligence official is centered around ukraine. Nbc news has not confirmed the post report but a former u. S. Official tells nbc news the complaint involves a phone conversation between President Trump and an unidentified world leader. The post first reported that the complaint about President Trumps interaction with the foreign leader included a promise that the Intelligence Officer found so troubling that they filed a complaint with the Inspector General. Two and a half weeks before that complaint was filed, President Trump spoke by phone with ukraines newly elected president vladimir zelensky. Top House Democrats are investigating whether President Trumps personal lawyer Rudy Giuliani tried to influence the ukraine government to help President Trumps election campaign. Those democrats say one of giulianis alleged targets appears to be former Vice President joe biden and his family, including his son hunter who once worked on the board of a ukranian gas company. Overnight, giuliani on cnn contradicting himself. Did you ask the ukraine to investigate joe biden . No, actually i didnt. You did ask. Of course i did. Reporter the Biden Campaign declined to comment. The president blasting it has harassment. He said there was nothing said wrong, it was pitch perfect.

The white house has not responded to our request for comment. Craig and hoda. Peter alexander from the white house, thank you. Now to the growing firestorm surrounding canadian Prime Minister Justin Trudeau as a third instance of him in dark makeup surfaced. Once again he is apologizing while vowing to continue his reelection campaign. Nbcs Stephanie Gosk is here with the very latest. Good morning. Good morning, his problem is not going away. With 31 days until election day in canada, Prime Minister trudeaus campaign has turned into an apology tour. These images are at odds with his established reputation as a champion for inclusivity. He doesnt want to put a number on how many times he appeared in brownface or blackface since he doesnt remember the instances that have landed him at the center of this explosive controversy. This morning canadian Prime Minister Justin Trudeau is answering for his past again. I have to recognize that i let a lot of people down with that choice and i stand here today to reflect on that and to ask for forgiveness. The leader holding his Second Press Conference in less than 24 hours after a third instance of him in dark makeup was published by the Canadian Network global news. Darkening your face regardless of the context or the circumstances is always unacceptable because of the racist history of blackface. I should have understood that then. And i never should have done it. Trudeaus party confirming the video taken during the early 1990s. The Prime Ministers skin is painted as he sticks out his tongue and waves his arms. Who took the video and where it was taken is unclear. The clip surfaced hours after Prime Minister trudeau admitted and apologized for two other instances. One from an arabian nights themed party in 2001, the other from a High School Talent show in the 1980s. I think the question is how can you not remember that. The fact is i didnt understand how hurtful this is to people who live with discrimination every single day. His mounting controversy coupled with a Corruption Scandal threatening to undermine the Prime Ministers bid for reelection next month. Two of his opponents blasting trudeau thursday. I believe hes not fit to govern the country, and hes lost the moral authority to govern it. I think canadians will have questions about his sincerity. Questions about who is the real mr. Trudeau. Trudeau is showing no signs of stepping down before the october 21st election. Before the images of trudeau came out, this race was already tight, guys, and its unclear what effect its going to have on him. Stephanie, thank you.

It was Tropical Storm imelda that produced 40 inches of rain, and now it is the 5th time we have seen this much rain due to a tropical system in the lower 48 states. Harvey picked up 60 inches of rain and it just goes to show you, it doesnt matter what category this storm is, rain is rain, and thats what we have been seeing. Right now, the heaviest of the rain has pushed over into louisiana. Were not in the clear yet with some sunshine today, pop up showers and storms because its still very very humid, could produce up to 1 to 2 inches of rain per hour. So were not looking at a lot of additional rain but some of the storms this afternoon could produce enough to really exacerbate the flooding. As we go into tonight, the threat will wind down. Then well keep an eye on the cold front that will move east through the day, and that could lead to popup showers and storms across the Northern Plains and upper midwest, and some of those storms could be severe with the chance of some large hail, damaging winds, and we cant rule out tornadoes as well as for additional rainfall, again, maybe about an inch or two. Some of that could fall in an hour that could lead to more flash flooding, which is why we have watches in effect. Farther north as the cold front moves eastward, we could see 1 to 3 inches of rain with flash flood watches saturday and sunday thats a look at the weather across the country well get to your local forecast in the next 30 seconds from the floor plan.

Theyre all calling for the same thing, reducing the use of fossil fuels to try and halt Climate Change. Now to an nbc news exclusive, despite being under the weather, savannah sat down with six Jeffrey Epstein accusers some sharing their very personal and emotional stories publicly for the first time the only solace for me is that when a group of people who have experienced trauma of this kind come together united against a common enemy, theres a very special bond between us all. A painful bond shared among these six women sitting together for the first time for an exclusive interview with nbc news i find it very comforting to be here. Marika, sharing their stories about epstein for the first time on television. I think the nature of this kind of abuse means youre conditioned to be silent, to be isolated, secretive and shameful i feel like, you know, it was a big game for him and we were the pieces of his game youre like im just not going to say anything because thats what he told me to do. The women all have familiar stories of grooming, promises, and then Sexual Assault. I can relate to pretty much every person sitting here next to me. Virginia Roberts Giuffre said epstein associate Ghislaine Maxwell recruited her when she was working as a locker Room Attendant at maralago. In her first broadcast interview, virginia tells nbc news what she has previously alleged in court filings, that epstein directed her to have sex with a number of powerful men, among them britains Prince Andrew. He was an abuser, he was a participant. Virginia says she was 17 when this photo was taken with the prince in maxwells london town home next to the bathroom where she says he sexually abused her. What happened that first time in london, i was so young, ghislaine woke me up and said youre going to meet a prince today i didnt know at that point that i was going to be trafficked to that prince. And then that night Prince Andrew came to her house in london and we went out to club tramp. Prince andrew got me alcohol it was in the vip section. It was im pretty sure it was vodka. Prince andrew is like lets dance together, and i was like okay and we leave club tramp, and i hop in the car with jeffrey, and she says hes coming back to the house, and i want you to do for him what you do for epstein. I couldnt believe it. Virginia says the abuse moved from the bathroom to a bedroom. He wasnt rude or anything about it he said, you know, thank you, and some kind of soft sentiments like that and left i just couldnt believe it i couldnt believe that even royalty were involved. She says Prince Andrew abused her two more times, once in new york in epsteins mansion, and again at his Virgin Islands estate. Prince andrew, of course, denies that this ever happened. He denies that it ever happened, and hes going to keep denying that it ever happened but he knows the truth, and i know the truth what do you say if people think this is about money for you, that youre trying to get money and have gotten money . Well, unfortunately, theres this horrible law called statute of limitations, my lawyers said the way to get Jeffrey Epstein to be accountable, them saying im a liar, which im not. Like all others shes named, Prince Andrew has denied the allegations. Buckingham palace telling nbc news in a statement, it is emphatically denied that the duke of york had Sexual Conduct or relationship with Virginia Roberts and any claim is false without foundation maxwell has not been criminally charged and has repeatedly denied the accusations against her. What does justice look like to you now justice now is Holding Accountable the perpetrators that helped him and participated with him and encouraging more people to come forward so we can try to put this puzzle together, and understand how it happened how did this happen for so long, how did he get away with it. These are questions many of these women have asked, especially now after epsteins suicide in jail awaiting trial on child sex trafficking and conspiracy charges i feel let down, you know, that he wale to commit suicide. Yeah, it was really upsetting. They failed us before dont fail us again. Exactly thats all were asking take us serious. We matter. You matter, and you matter, and you matter, and for all the girls out there, you all matter too. Yes a message to other possible victims of epstein still waiting in the shadows jeffrey thought that we were disposable, and he threw us all away, and look whos Still Standing theres something about seeing the group of women together with those shared stories that is incredibly compelling as is virginias story. The image itself is powerful, and the words even more powerful. You can see savannahs full conversation, a special dateline, that is tonight at 10 00, 9 00 central, and by the way, we are going to check in with savannah in just a little bit, and see how shes feeling in our next hour she has come down with pneumonia, and were going to talk to a doctor about what we can do with that.

This morning on indepth today whats being called a bird crisis. Their numbers in the United States and canada have fallen by an astonishing 29 since 1970. In fact, were talking some 3 billion birds. Nbcs joe fryer has details on this one whats happening Scientists Say there are likely many causes, birds are vital to our ecosystem from controlling pests to pollinating flowers and helping to regenerate forests but when these birds disappear, oftentimes their former habitats are not the same billions of birds vanishing from the sky. Scientists call this an ecological gut punch one in three birds, 29 , totaling nearly 3 billion disappeared in the last 50 years. Birds are the quintessential ecosystem indicators, they are the canaries in the coal mine. When something is going wrong with birds, something is wrong with the environment its not healthy. The analysis, the most exhaustive and ambitious attempt yet to learn what is happening to the populations, the steep losses among such traditional backyard birds as robins and american sparrows seeing the largest drop of any, nearly 750 million. The reason for declines, habitat loss, the disappearance of meadows and prairies, and the growing use of pesticides that kill insects, affecting the entire food chain. Thats what im talking about. Birds have been an object of endless fascination in pop culture from horror movies to hit songs. Now researchers are hoping to get a handle on how the loss of so many birds flying in the sky will land our environment in the future the good news is that nature is resilient, once given a chance, so if we as humans act on this, if we start to really value nature, value birds, these birds will respond, and respond rapidly, in five or ten years, we could easily see some of these species starting to increase it can happen that fast. So a lot of folks might be wondering what we can do to help out, avoid the pesticides, be careful about pollution, plastics, things that can kill s. If you can treat your windows, so theres less reflection, reducing the odds of birds running into them, and keep your cats indoors seems like a bigger problem but heres a theory, and i have nothing to back this up, joe. The proliferation of cellphone towers, i just dont think theres, you know. All the things that we are building obviously contribute to this. Joe, thank you. He was just teasing you, joe, you know he was teasing you. Ms. Dylan, you have a check of weather. Pretty funny there too, huh, craig. We are going to see a nice warmup across the northeast. If its been feeling a little too falllike too soon for you, in luck. Detroit will get up to 82 degrees. Minneapolis even 83 degrees. Charleston, west virginia, 85. 70s in across new york and new england, saturday we should make it into the 80s. Milwaukee will start to cool down as we get into the first half of the weekend. Louisville, 92 degrees, 14 degrees above average, and going into next week, we are going to start off the week in the 80s. Sunday, 84 degrees in new york city 87 in raleigh, 90 on monday in atlanta, and more seasonal temperatures as we get towards good morning. Im meteorologist kari hall. A live look at the sun shining in oakland and a lot of people heading out the door. Our temperatures there will reach up to 80 degrees and 86 in palo alto. In san jose were looking at a high of 85 and 87 in martinez. Well have some warmer temperatures tomorrow, in some of our hotter spots, reaching 94 degrees. Inland valleys up to 90 on sunday and for the first day of fall, upper 80s and then even hotter next tuesday. And thats your latest forecast. We are going to defend joe for a second you remember how you said cats and windows arent killing birds.

Savannah has been out sick all week and she just learned that it is pneumonia heres the funny thing about savannah, she never calls out sick ever. Ever so when it was one day, two days, and three days, we knew it was something. Nbc news medical contributor dr. Azar joins us, and were going to talk to our patient savannah when she gets on the phone. We have her. Hey, savannah, you never take out sick ever, ever, ever, how are you feeling . I have a terrible case of guilt for missing the week and leaving you guys high and dry, but, you know, i just got diagnosed yesterday, which was sort of a relief because now i can have antibiotics and they say by saturday the fever should finally break, but, you know, i was talking to my mom yesterday, shes like savannah, you have not been this sick in your entire life, and its really true i really have never been so laid out flat, and really in just a lot of misery, the fever is the thing, its not a cold i just couldnt get the fever to break, and so ive just been on around the clock medicine to keep the fever down and then i started getting this real bad cough. Honestly i was shocked its pneumonia, i feel like i breathe pretty well. Im not wheezing or anything i was shocked thats what it was. I thought it might be flu. I had the flu test and it was negative every day i would tell our bosses or tell you, hoda, and craig you guys would text me, ill probably be in tomorrow, and then i would have another night of like sweating and freezing and aching and horrible and yeah, so and charlie is sick too, so hes been with me. Hes like a burning hot appendage, he wants me to carry him everywhere and he and i are in misery, and mike is wearing the hazmat suit. How contagious is this . It is, i mean, look, it depends, we dont know exactly which bug savannah has but theyre all contagious, i mean, coughing and sneezing and even the tissues that you use, you know, you have to throw them away and wash your hands. And savannah, werent you saying, i remember you saying that vail had pneumonia a few days ago. He had it it was late summer she was very sick and i remember kind of thinking, wow, i cant believe charlie and i none of us got it and thats so great so it was like two weeks later, i never dreamed that it could be related but actually, my doctor says it could. It can hang around. The incubation period of some of them, something thats called atypical pneumonia sometimes, it can be from the time youre exposed to the time you get sick can be anywhere from one to four weeks, so the timing definitely could work there. Whats the difference between flu and pneumonia. Flu is a viral inflection, pneumonia typically is caused by a bacteria, although it can be caused by viruses and fungi as well sometimes its not that easy to tell the difference between a bad cold and flu, and a mild case of pneumonia because they are respiratory infections. Savannah feel better. We love savannah. Thank you, love you guys. Hope to see you monday. Get well. Dont worry about that. What if she takes a z pack on tuesday. I think they did give her that class now that its bacterial, you can take antibiotics. Importantly and one reason why were so proponents of the flu vaccine is people who develop flu can recover from the flu and then secondarily get a bacterial pneumonia, and you can also get a bacterial pneumonia following a cold dr. Azar, thank you, as we head into flu season, useful information there. You know what we could use for a pick me up, how about we watch some reruns of friends, this sunday marks 25 years since the pilot episode first aired. Joe fryer is back, he sat down with the shows creators for a stroll down memory lane. We could not be more excited for this one hey, joe. Thats right. 236 episodes over ten seasons. Friends was a major part of nbc tvs must see lineup, flanked by powerhouses like er and seinfeld, and thanks to syndication in netflix, the show is winning new fans of all ages. In that iconic fountain 25 years ago, a tv legend was christened when six friends made a big splash joey, monica, rachel, chandler. Im chandler, i make jokes when im uncomfortable. Ross. It tastes like feet and phoebe. Smelly cat smelly cat what ar they feeding you a fictional friendship formed by creators Marta Kaufman and david crane, kevin bright, the trio met us inside the friends popup experience in new york the core of the show was always that its about that time in your life when your friends are your family. Was that a hard sell, what was the reaction to that. As simple as it was, it was something that was not on television yet, and i think thats what made it exciting. While the idea may have been simple, finding the right cast was not. It took months. We made an offer to courtney cox, we wanted her to play rachel, she wanted to play monica there was a readjustment there. Remind us during that time, were these well known performers. Matt leblanc was on his last 11 when he got the part. Courtney cox shared this photo after they shot the pilot but before it aired. Fame would quickly follow taking the actors by surprise, seen in this 1994 interview with katie couric. Its the number two new comedy. Really . Yeah, did you know that from the beginning, the question sewn into the fabric. We were on a break. We were on a break we were on a break would ross and rachel get together i, ross. I ross. Take thee emily. Take thee rachel. Did she get off the plane . The answer finally came in the series finale. I got off the plane the creators say as the show evolved, it steered them in the right direction. We didnt really know that chandler and monica were going to end up together until even after that episode in london where they wake up in bed together do you think he knew i was here with 236 episodes. They dont know we know we know we know. Its hard to pick just one. Look at me, im chandler, could i be wearing anymore clothes . Or even ten favorite punch lines. Pivot, pivot. Pivot. We may have written the word pivot, but David Schwimmer made them come alive. And Matthew Perry screaming in that moment also made it come alive. Shut up, shut up, shut up. The Shows Success made it a revolving door for big guest stars, including brad pitt, tom sellick, and julia roberts, not to mention quirky side characters like gunther and of course janice. Oh, my god. When the show finally ended in 2004, the cast told today was hard to say goodbye. We hate talking about it, we hate thinking about it its just all so unbelievably surreal, and yeah, it will be hard. Its ten years. Its a longer time than you spend in, you know, high school, college, those relationships combined. Whole new generation of fans since it started streaming on netflix. We live in this era of reboots right now, you probably get asked all the time, will this show ever come back again watch my face. Its there every day, wasnt that the comeback. We got it right, lightning in a bottle, all that, youll never repeat that. Why try. Should we get some coffee sure. Where even after 25 years, the shows loyal fans refuse to take a break. All right even though there will be no reboot, we still ask the creators where they think the characters would be today. Marta kaufman thinks one of the characters would have six kids by now, who do you think she was talking about . Probably monica. I think monica. Youd say rachel . She thinks joey she thinks deep inside joey was a family man with six kids huh. I like that. By the way, we put the ll interview with the shows creators on today. Com. Gunther is here, James Michael tyler. What do you think of the setup, you liky this is pretty convincing, honestly, theres no coffee of espresso machine otherwise id make you one. I have to say i was looking over here, and i was like, wait, is that gunther, so you bleached your hair for the show, thats not your normal coloring, right . No, during the 20th anniversary five years ago, i did bring gunther back one more time, but i retired him, and i finished a film in june, so i had to keep a beard, because im doing one in december, and they want a bigger beard, so its kind of surreal Walking Around and nobody knows who i am. When you were regionally cast as gunther how many episodes were you supposed to be in. I wasnt cast i came in as an extra the first season as a matter of fact, this jacket, this is my own wardrobe, for the first six episodes they didnt create gunther until mid way through the second season. How about that tie . The tie is actually from the final episode, and if you can see its signed by all of the cast members, and the creators of the show, they signed it during the wrap party. Thats cool thank you for coming to see us. James michael taylor, thank you so much, and our friends celebration far from over, the rembrandts getting ready to perform that iconic theme song. Oh, yeah, but dylan, first you got a check of the weather. Who knew there was a weather wall in central park its all the way over here lets take a look at whats going on we have active tropics, we might as well point out hurricane jerry, a category 2 hurricane.

Up next, Richard Engel is here, hes got a remarkable story about the women of isis, his shocking look inside their world up next. But first, this is today on nbc. Find the brands you love from nordstrom. Up to 70 off at nordstrom rack. Thats fashion at a fraction. And get easy returns at norin store. K. Com nordstrom rack. What will you find . Welcome back on this friday morning, nbcs chief Foreign Correspondent Richard Engel joins us with an eye opening look at the women of isis. You have spent a lot of time covering isis over the years, but this is a new look. This is a new look. The lot of people think of the women of isis, if they think about them at all as people who were perhaps forced into the organization or they were brought to the isis caliphate by their husbands, the so called jihadi brides, we have an hour coming up on isis and the rise and fall of this organization, and one of the big things we looked at was the role of women. And same way in a lot of families and a lot of societies, in isis as well, it was the women that held this group together it was the women that made some of its worst crimes possible. And we met a lot of the women. We met a of its worst crimes possible and we met a lot of the women. We met a lot of isis supporters who have been herded together in this refugee camp in Northern Syria and when we went there, we learned some pretty extraordinary things. The camp in syria is home to around 70,000 people the families of isis fighters are kept here until their home countries figure out what to do with them. But their governments dont want them back. So they languish here, poorly guarded with nothing to do where are you from . From russia. From russia i came to the alhole camp to find out if isis still poses a threat and to learn more about the women of the worlds most brutal terrorist group i heard a young woman was at the camp who said she was american. Im Richard Engel from nbc. Raised in alabama, the daughter of a diplomat from yemen. Im just as american as any blond hair blueeyed girl and i was like to stay in my country and do american things. Instead, age 20, she left her comfortable, even privileged life in the u. S. To join isis. She was an ardent believer and used her twitter account to incite americans to commit murder theres one tweet in particular where you talk about calling on americans to do driveby shootings, to rent a truck and drive over people, spilling their blood and you say memorial day, veterans day, go out and do it. My mother told me not to speak about these things. She claims she is filled with remorse, but she was literally wedded to the cause. So you were married three times. Yeah, three times. Two were killed, and one divorced and how were these men killed on the battlefield. Did you ever get any military training women didnt really have a role there other than being a housewife. Thats just not true. Isis had a women only brigade of enforcers called the hansa brigade. In a safe house in southern turkey, i met three of them and asked a woman named dua what her role was. We were a female police force, she said, we would tour the markets, take part in raids, and take women who were violating the dress code to our headquarters for punishment. What may be even more disturbing is that isis women allowed their own children to be turned into murderers. The socalled isis cubs were isolated, indoctrinated and given military training. They went from playing soldiers to being soldiers. In the camp, signs that indoctrination hasnt gone away. The children here recently made an isis flag, flew it, and chanted that isis lives on. Richard, you had some incredible access, wondering like how that came to be still tens of thousands of isis supporters who were in that camp that i went to they are loosely guarded they have nothing to do. If you go there, you can meet them they are starting to get restless they want to organize, and just a few days ago, the leader of isis who is in hiding, hes trying to make himself a little bit of the new Osama Bin Laden figure, he was calling on his supporters the pentagon estimates there are about 18,000, upwards of 18,000 isis members still at large. Those who are not even in that camp, to liberate the camp they want to reform the group, so isis is definitely trying to make a comeback.

Thank goodness we have food network chef, david rose, lets get right into the cooking, man. Cleveland, midwest. Tailgating in cleveland. Bratwursts, if you go to the midwest, all about the bratwurst. I like a little spice in my life anybody that knows me, were making a homemade spicy sauerkraut im taking a shortcut. We have some caramelized onions going right there, get the nice sweetness out of there, and youre going to add some store bought sauerkraut, dump that in bought sauerkraut, dump that there like so. What kind of spices you got in there salt, caraway seeds, salt, paprika, cayenne pepper. Toss that in there like that go ahead, and give that a stir for me, sir. I will do that. So this is elevating the sauerkraut right here. From store bought to the nice spicy delicious sauerkraut and what goes with a sauerkraut and bratwurst. I dont know. Beer. So you hit that with some beer right there, nice brown ale, really really tasty, and you braise that down, let that go to about a half reduced by volume, and at that point, youre cooking the alcohol out but getting the flavor if youre tasting it. We are. Thats why i like to stand over it, so i get a whole thing there. So youre multitasking. Dont like to waste, david. Delicious, the caraway seeds. What do you do with the brats . Well get to that in a second, the thing that ties it all together, carson, like the rims on a nice car is this mustard sauce right here. I see what youre doing, youre pitching this brat. I got it heavy cream to that, youre going to add sugar to that sweetness, a little bit of grey mustard mustard sauce, got to have mustard, and you bring that up to a boil, let that simmer until it gets nice and reduced and creamy, and then. Boom, cheese. When in doubt, add cheese, sharp cheddar, youll find that in there. The more sharp, the better. The cheddar the better. You asked about the brats, the right, right here. Hot dogs, sausage brats, real regional. Im just like you my friend, very regional. Im a jersey boy. From cleveland, though. I grew up on hot dogs. How is the brat delicious its the rims, right. Its the rims so you sear off the brats right here, get a nice brown, a nice crispy kind of edge on there, and more beer. Im going to drink this. Cheers to you some for the pot. This is the way to cook. Some for me. I want a beer so bad. I got you here you are shes pregnant. Shes pregnant. For the lady. Oh, never mind. Hoda, for you. My bad okay so we have beer.

Im like a meercat we have bacon jam in there, we have maple syrup, we have bourbon, we have coffee. Bourbon toss that in there. And a little bit of coffee, bourbon, and a little bit of Apple Cider Vinegar for acidity, put some bacon in there, reduce that down until its nice and jammy. No shortage of flavors. We have our burgers, salt really good. Dont touch the burger, let the burger do its thing, nice hard sear. Flip it once, right. Bacon jam, boom.
