the outbreak spreading. passengers now being screened on planes arriving in the u.s. just ahead, our report from the city where it all started, as officials consider declaring a worldwide public health emergency. prince harry steps down into canada last night. him and meghan and the baby archie, their new life. we'll have the latest. and frigid temperatures across the south today. al says another dangerous cross country system is on the way. close call. the frightening moment a bus carrying college students erupts into flames just seconds after the driver evacuated the passengers. and jennifer aniston shares new pictures following the night at the s.a.g. awards and the reunion with brad pitt. >> it's like mom and dad getting back together. but hollywood. >> the growing fascination about the most-talked-about backstage moment in a long time. today, tuesday, january 21st, 2020. >> announcer: from nbc news this is "today" with savannah guthrie and hoda kotb, live from studio 1a in rockefeller plaza. hi, everybody. welcome to "today." it is 7:00 a.m. on the west coast on tuesday. hoda will join us in just a moment. first, our top story. what to expect as president trump's trial begins today? >> that's right, it will convene three hours from now, 10 a.m. pacific time. the first big fight is already on, the rules of the road. senator majority leader mitch mcconnell is planning to really fast track this process. >> meanwhile, a new poll shows how americans are feeling about the whole thing. 51% said they want a conviction and the president's removal from office, 49% support his acquittal and 69% want it to include testimony from new witnesses. >> as this is all unfolding in washington, the president is attending an economic summit in switzerland. question have all of the angles covered start with peter alexander. >> good morning to you. this impeachment trial begins in a few hours with opening arguments set for tomorrow. but not after a debate and vote, likely more than one, with rules that republicans lay out a plan to speed through the proceedings with marathon days, possibly 12 hours each. democrats are already complaining it's deeply unfair, it is in their words a national disgrace. the rules, they say, are being hidden from the american people. ahead of the impeachment trial, keeping a close drama on the eye back home. >> we're meeting with the most important people in the world. the other is just a hoax. the witch-hunt that's been going on for years. frankly, it's disgraceful. >> reporter: at the capitol completing their final walk-throughs the president's defense team serving as prosecutors. the blueprint allows each side 24 hours confined to two days a piece to make their case, meaning with an expected start midday tomorrow arguments can go late into the night, early the next morning. democrats are outraged, accusing republicans trying to rush the process and hide it from the american people. >> there's now concern leader mcconnell is going along with trump's cover-up, hook, line and sinker. both sides are previewing their position. in a 110-page briefing, the president urging the senate to acquit him immediately. and asking them to pursue investigations into the bidens, withholding military aid, they argue the president did absolutely nothing wrong and the charges of abuse of power and obstruction of congress do not meet the congressional threshold for removing a president from office. >> the framers of the constitution did not admit impeachment on grounds like abuse of power or obstruction of congress. and they introduced and set very specific treason, bribery or high crimes and misdemeanors. >> reporter: the comments from alan dershowitz, now part of the president's legal team, seem to contrast with his comments about the clinton trial in 1998. >> certainly doesn't have to be a crime if you have somebody who completely corrupts the office of president and abuses trust and poses great danger to our liberty, you don't need a technical crime. >> reporter: dershowitz explaining the about-face monday night on cnn. >> you were wrong back then? >> i'm saying i am much more correct right now having done more research -- >> much more correct? >> reporter: the democrats say they overwhelmingly prove he did abuse his power and saying he attempted to cheat in the election and bury his evidence when he got caught. >> to say he did nothing wrongfullies in the face of -- not only the truth -- but flies in the face of what i think republican senators know to be the truth. >> one thing to watch for the defenders might try to dismiss the trial outright by raising the effort on the floor. it's highly unlikely that effort would pass. if this trial is put on a fast track, it could wrap up before the state of the union, savannah and craig, just two weeks from today. >> peter alexander, thank you. from outside let's go inside the capitol, where we find casey hunt right in the middle of the action. good morning. >> good morning to you. this day is the display, pageantry. over the weekend they took things out of the closet and dusted them off and put them in the senate chamber for what is about to unfold. they put them in the well of the senate. we can show you what that looked like last time around. it was pretty crowded. the floor of the senate is not necessarily as big as you might think. for the senators, it's going to be a lot like a very long day at school today. you may remember the cubbies you may have had or kids had when they go to kindergarten. senators have to put all of their electronics in there before they walk out to the senate floor. they're prohibited from having them. they're prohibited from talking to each other and from reading anything not related to the trial, that's officially on imprisonment. we don't expect anything like that to be enforced but they're breaking the law if they get up to go to the bathroom. one of the challenges, of course, staying aaway. there will be a special desk with candy for that. and this is activity picking up on capitol hill, the hallway all the way down to the senate chamber where all of this is going to unfold starting in a few hours. >> kasey, thank you. we're joined by claire mccaskill, former senator and rich laurie and msnbc analyst. great to see you. >> good morning. >> because the fight is off and running, senate majority leader mitch mcconnell fast-tracked this process. both sides, you have 24 hours to make your cases and have to do it over four days. that makes for two very long days for democrats. and for republicans. do you think that's fair? do you think that's hurting the democrats' ability to put on their case? >> it's an outrage. it's an absolute outrage. >> why? >> i can hear the wailing all the way from washington last night when this came out. can you believe if you came to jury duty when the judge said you're going to hear evidence at 2:00 in the morning. there's no excuse for this to start at 1:00 in the afternoon and go until the middle of the night. this is important stuff. whether you agree or disagree with the president, there's no excuse for the senate to decide this important evidence, for both sides, is going to be heard in the middle of the night. >> rich, do you think it's a shrewd move by mitch mcconnell? or is he playing games? >> he and the president want to get this over with as quickly as possible. it's hypocrisy on the democrats' side, where they expedited the impeachment in the house. now, they want to slow up the trial because it will be awkward for vulnerable republican members in the senate. clinton impeachment, there were three days. there will be two days here. we'll know what the democratic argument is. and the fact of the matter is, whether it's two days, three days, four days. the outcome will be the same. >> correct me if i'm wrong, it starts later in the day because the chief justice has business across the street in the supreme court in the morning, because he has a day job. that why it starts late? >> and the senate likes to keep the mornings open for potentially any other business. >> could it be a favor for the democrats, to tighten their case, not go until 1:00 in the morning. but do it in a shorter timeframe? >> in that regard, the lawyers who present these cases and the democratic house managers are like everyone else, they like as much time as possible to finish their homework. i think this will be seen by the public, they're clearly rushing this. the other that mitch mcconnell is doing, where the trial and the political strategy intersect, is he is drawing the partisan war into this morning. everybody is waking up to a trial, a rare thing, a president on trial. it's a huge and intense partisan battle. he's gotten that over the rules, before we get to the real debate, whether witnesses will be heard. >> it is an ongoing partisan debate. the other big issue is the question of witnesses. they're going to vote on witnesses later. the president's team put out a trial brief. and there's an irony there, rich. on the one hand, they're saying, there's no firsthand ever that the military aid or the white house meeting was withheld. at the same time, they don't want to call witnesses. doesn't that put them in a box? >> the best republican case is on witnesses, what most senators believe but won't say. we know what happened. it was wrong. we don't think it rises to the level of removal. there's a contradiction of the democratic case say, we knew enough to impeach but you don't know about enough about our judgment to render impeachment. >> there are senators who do face election in swing states, purple states. will this be a tough question for them not to allow witnesses? >> the vast majority of americans want the witnesses to be heard. more evidence has come to light since the house finished its process. keep in mind, impeachment is not a trial. it says there's enough evidence for the trial. the trial is where you have the witnesses and the documents. and the notion this white house is doing everything it can, including strategizing, if bolton is called, how they do it out of the public eye. that's really, i think, not going to sit well with most americans. >> when you look at this, there will be arguments about the facts, which you just alluded to, and also arguments about the law. one of the arguments republicans are making is abuse of power is not impeachable because it's not a crime, it's not a federal crime. and there's been division over that issue. >> legally that is not true. there have been many impeachments, including of nonpresidents and there are nonfelonies, meaning something bad you would do because of the power the government gave you. a police officer, judge, president all have those special powers that might not be literally a technical crime under the law. why that's not legally true, there's a larger defense the president has here, which is if this was so terrible, if this was such a high crime, why am i only being accused of using my foreign policy powers? if you have to go into my mind for what i did in foreign policy, how bad can it really be? we will see that argument with or without witnesses. on the flip side democrats will continue to say if you're abusing presidential powers, that's one of the most substantial abuses possible. >> where do you stand? >> i agree with what ari said. the brief makes a good case if there's prior presidential impeachments have stark violations of the law. if you don't have that, you have a subjective area when you try to read the president's mind. >> you think abuse of power is sufficient basis. we've seen actually lawyers who work for the president be on all sides of that issue. that will be a live one. how are senators going to do without talking for 12 hours straight, as a former senator? >> it will be unbelievable to watch if they can actually sit for almost 12 hours. >> claire and ari, thank you very much. up next we will look at the trial and comparison to the president 20 years ago. a lot of the same characters on different sides of the issue. it's an interesting look back. and we will have special live coverage of today's proceedings starting at 1:00 eastern time. >> savannah, thank you. also this morning breaking, a dramatic surge in the cases of the deadly mystery virus that's now being screened for here in the u.s. now we're learning a little bit more about how it spread. nbc's janis mackey frayer is in central china where the virus originated. janis? >> reporter: good morning. most of the cases have generated in this hospital here in wuhan, ground zero. and it's showing up in other cities including thailand and south korea. the concern, how to stop it from spreading? a scientist has confirmed it can be transmitted between people and in one case one person infected 14 health care workers. so there's a scramble to contain this at what is the busiest time of the year for travel in china. literally hundreds of people are on the move for the lunar new year. the world health organization is holding an emergency meeting to determine whether this outbreak is now an international public health emergency. guys, back to you. >> janis mackey frayer there in china. let's bring in dr. john torres. some people are comparing this to sars, which claimed the lives of about 280 people back in the 2000s. what are we dealing with here? >> it's the corona virus that affected the sars patient, the same thing. the big difference is the response. back in the sars virus, chinese officials kept it silent for a couple of months and allowed it to spread. here they're jumping on it quickly, sending messages to their staff and jumping around the country saying let us know if you have cases. >> we're talking about it in the u.s., something confined to asia at the moment, but the fear is with the lunar new year and travel and people come into contact with one another and it spreads. >> that's how it spreads, close contact. you have to be living with someone or taking care of the sick. but this is the chinese lunar new year. an estimated 400 million will be traveling in and out of that country or different parts of the country are even internationally. that's why they're checking people, looking at the questions have you been to this area or exposed? that's the big thing. >> dr. torres, keep us posted. 16 minutes after the hour. let's head to al and get our first check of the west. how is it looking out west? >> our friends are getting the brunt of it. puget sound down to california is pushing in. for today we're looking at the low elevation range, heavy snow up in the mountains. hazardous travel. this thing pushes east by wednesday. it's into the central plains. heavy rain developing, making its way through texas by thursday. snow and ice in the midwest with the great lakes. looking at moving east by the time we get into friday to saturday, anywhere from two to three inches of rain. then we're talking about up to a half a foot of snow. stormy northwest, mountain snows in the rockies. southern chill today but plenty good tuesday morning. i'm meteorologist kari hall. we have spotty light rain moving through as you get ready to head out of the door, we'll see rain chances tlut yow today. it is dry the rest of the workweek as our temperatures warm up. inland reaching up to 63 on friday. the weekend shows more rain coming in, off-and-on showers from saturday into sunday and our temperatures cool off slightly and for san francisco we're going to stay in the mid to upper 50s throughout the weekend but be we'll a break from the rain starting tomorrow. >> and that's your latest weather. savannah >> thank you and now, new images of prince harry and baby archie to canada he is joining meghan and archie to start a new life. and key figures from clinton's impeachment trial, expected to play new roles in the impeachment of president trump. andrea mitchell is here to put things in perspective, as only andrea can i'm tom steyer and i approve this message. climate is the number 1 priority. i would declare a state of emergency on day 1. congress has never passed an important climate bill, ever. this is a problem that continues to get worse. i've spent a decade fighting and beating oil companies... stopping pipelines... stopping fossil fuel plants, ensuring clean energy across the country. how are we going to pull this country together?

side's opening arguments. senators will vote on the rules package when they convene this afternoon. democrats accuse republicans of trying to rush the process and hide it from the american people but mr. trump's lawyers argue, the president did nothing wrong. thens of thousands of gun rights activists flooded the virginia capitol yesterday and they're urging state lawmakers to reject the sweeping measures that restrict firearms. virginia's governor hoped to avoid what happened in charlottesville in 2017. a dad had to prevent from getting involved in his son's wrestling match. the referee blew the whistle moments later, a man runs out and knocks the wrestler to the ground it was the other boy's dad the man was charged with assault and disorderly conduct meanwhile, we have new developments of what's happening inside the royal family. you hear about this? overnight, prince harry touched down in canada, joining meghan and archie they are starting to begin this chapter away from royal life kelly cobiella is at buckingham palace kelly, good morning. >> good morning to you that's right, prince harry is no back in canada, reunited with his family 24 hours ago, he was here in london, working on behalf of the queen, meeting with african leaders, in what could be one of his last official royal engagements. prince harry landed in vancouver is island overnight, spotted at the airport, ready to reunite with meghan and son, archie, after leaving his royal life behind. looking happy and relaxed. a smiling meghan was seen out for a walk with her son and the couple's dogs. in leggings and boots, no need to follow a royal dress code their lives in a new country, coming after harry's emotional speech claiming he felt foerzed to choose to being a royal and privacy. >> it brings me great sadness that it's come to him. i will be the same man who holds his country dear i will always have the utmost respect for my grandmother >> reporter: back in london, prince harry is carrying on, hosting his first solo reception at the palace and mod night. >> the affluent continent shares a place in my heart. it is a place my father took my brother and my shortly after my mother died. >> reporter: the brothers, clearly on different paths prince william, a future king. prince harry, a private citizen. even letting go of his military titles on the sussex instagram page, pictures of harry's south pole walk with wounded warriors were posted on monday, on the charity's anniversary. >> this is a young man who is very torn, very divided, very sad at having to leave but clearly, in his own words, he felt he had no other option i think, you know, they yearn for a more peaceful life whether or not they're going to have that in canada, is another matter altogether. >> reporter: and still, many unknowns how will meghan and harry earn a living where will they call home? who will pay for their security? >> in the long-term, i think there has to be an agreement, how meghan and harry and archie as a family can compensate, if scotland yard will continue to give that security, how they pay for it >> reporter: and perhaps, most importantly, when will they return to britain? there's been a lot of talk about what they might do going forward, possibly setting up a production company maybe making some kind of deal with netflix, following the obama model. but for now technically they're still hrhs, they're still working royals they're not officially stepping back until the spring, which suggests maybe possibly they might be back in this country in the next couple of months. guys >> one of the reasons, of course, maybe the main reason they left, had to do with the media coverage they got in great britain. can they really expect it to be a lot different in canada? >> well, the privacy rules are really, really strong here, in part because of harry and william. and in the days they were growing up, those privacy rules were put in place to protect them for the large part. now they're moving to a place where those rules don't apply. i think it's interesting if you look at the coverage over the past year or so, never once did we see a and cad id shot of meghan walking the dogs when they were living in windsor. now we have not only seen meghan walking the dogs but harry arriving at the airport, meghan taking off at the airport to one of her events last week. things may have already changed. >> kelly, thank you very much. meanwhile, a lot of folks are reacting this morning to the debut of a new public service announcement to the nfl's new inspire change initiative. it's focus, a former star's very personal tragedy. >> i will never forget that night. my wife walked up after the game to tell me my cousin corey had been killed. >> reporter: in a new attention-grabbing psa -- >> all you hear are three shots. >> reporter: former all-star wide receiver anquan boldin recalling the death of his cousin corey jones >> i need to know, why is my son gone today, why? >> reporter: the 31-year-old musician was killed by a plain-clothed police officer after his car broke down on the side of a florida highway one late night that officer was convicted of murder and manslaughter. >> i think far too long we avoided the conversation and i think by avoiding that conversation, we are what we are now. but i think any time you bring a situation to light, you have the ability to deal with it. >> tough times don't last tough people do. >> reporter: now the nfl unveiling an entire series of ads called "inspire change." >> i want to use my platform to speak out for people who cannot speak for themselves >> reporter: affecting issues that face largely the dynamics reaction to the campaign has been swift and split some fans saying, this was such a powerful psa others criticizing what they see as hypocrisy this is so fake on every level why wasn't kaepernick's 7 kneeling if this is a topic you care about that reference to colin kaepernick, when he took a knee to protest social injustice and police brutality >> did the nfl handle it right i don't think so >> everyone should stand for the national anthem. >> reporter: overnight, the nfl telling nbc news in a statement, we are aware of the challenges we've faced over the last few years. adding, this signature spot is how committed the players are to these issues >> i applaud the nfl for taking a stand and listening to the players and trying to address it >> reporter: the league, now trying to advance the ball on a delicate topic for "today," sam brock, nbc news >> anquan boldin saying, has the league done the right thing in the past perhaps not? is the league putting its money where its mouth is now it spent $25 million on this change initiative. they will be spending more we can look forward to seeing another psa around the super bowl, as well. >> right, money going to grassroots and other things. organizations trying to change things on the ground, as well. just ahead, as the

capitol, both sides can look at lessons learned from the last case of impeachment of a sitting president. nbc's andrea mitchell, of course, was there and can put it all in context good morning >> reporter: good morning to you all. it is the second impeachment trial in a generation, with some of the same cast of characters but this time playing different roles. a solemn moment, for the third time in history. the chief justice heading into the senate chamber the senators signing an oath signing an oath book >> hear ye, hear ye, hear ye, all persons are commanded to keep silent on pain of imprisonment >> reporter: but the president is looking at his own party, with a leader that says he has made up his mind >> i'm not an impartial juror. this is a political process. there isn't anything judicial about it >> reporter: 21 years ago the president on trial was bill clinton. he was trying to carry on as if the trial wasn't even happening. >> i trust that the right thing will be done and i think in the meanwhile, i need to work on the business of the people >> reporter: and not, as now, running for re-election. >> by the radical left lunatics, i get impeached. >> reporter: bill clinton's charges, perjury, lying about an affair with an intern, monica lewinsky, and obstructing justice. >> i did not have sexual relations with that woman, ms. lewinsky >> reporter: unlike today, they got all of the senators to accept the ground rules, vowing to iron out the witnesses to testify. >> it's different than what has been addressed in history. >> we want to give it another

>> i don't you know what, we are probably some of the worst offenders. savannah, hoda kotb, roker, raise your hand. when you're not here, do you check your e-mail? >> i read a segment about this last night >> control room, raise your hand do you check your e-mail when you're not in the office that's smart because the boss is sitting among you. see, i think it actually depends on where you work, right >> it doesn't. we think disconnecting is all about people with jobs that are demanding that we need to check in you know why we need to have this conversation, for people who aren't part of the formal workforce. for stay-at-home parents for full-time caregivers who never get to turn off, who say i'm not going to take my boss' call they need to set boundaries. that will help their mental and physical health. we're going to do it >> i'm here for the sermon, sister three tips start with number one. >> get it started. because of smartphones, we're not chained to a desk but we're chained to the phones. and our employers or the people in our life are going to take us 24/7, if we give them access create after-office hours. let your person know or put a reply on your phone or text, that says, from 7:00 to 9:00, from 8:00 to 10:00, i'm checking e-mail. that way, i'm not going, has craig seen my message? i know you're checked out. >> set after-office hours. all right. next tip, tip number two >> you're not going to believe this one it's about vacation time >> plan it already >> and you're going say to me, stephanie, it's only january. >> i'm already done. >> probably all three of your vacations in 2020. >> vacation days are not just perks. we fight to get them from our employers because we need them they help with our productivity. i'm not saying, craig, you need to plan a giant, two-week trip even if it's a day here or a day there. in 2018, can i tell you how many vacation days went unused in this country 768 million. that's 55% of americans don't take their vacation days >> why is that are they afraid of being looked at as lazy are they afraid of missing time in the office? >> it's a combination of things. all of that, the anxiety, the last-minute planning do it. put it on the calendar now when you are out, create a designated time to check in. if you have a chance to be with your family, you're not looking at the phone all day >> this is my favorite tip tip number three, asking a very important question >> this is the most important. you're going to get lots of e-mails and texts. before you respond, take a deep breath and say, can this e-mail wait 12 hours 36 hours maybe even 48. and you might want to respond to a colleague and say, i see this. i'm going to let you know tomorrow communicating is the best thing we can do. and communicating to say, i'm not available right now, is half the battle >> can this wait >> and i want to stress it for the people that might be stay-at-home we disrespect those people's time the most because we think they're available. you know, craig, sometimes at the dinner table, i might say, i have a work call, and it's not one for people who don't get to do that, i want them to create those boundaries >> you're lying to your children at dinner? that's my takeaway >> i might say, i have to take this work call everyone should get to disconnect >> some really useful tips there. stephanie, thank you thank you, thank you mr. daly >> yeah? i have to take this work call. siri, you're on your own >> i'm eating breakfast. >> we have two great breakfasts you're going to cook siri is here, ladies and gentlemen. we're renovating our house we literally have a pot. a great one-pot meal it's an egg roll bowl. and she made banana bread, literally in our crock pot first, t hi vo: droughts. floods. hurricanes. tornadoes. donald trump is making it worse. trump:"all of this with the global warming. a lot of it's a hoax." vo: mike bloomberg knows the science and understands the challenge, he's led an effort that has shut down half the nation's dirty polluting coal plants so far. as president, a plan for 80% clean energy by 2028 - cutting carbon emissions and creating millions of clean energy jobs. mike will get it done. i'm mike bloomberg and i approve this message. all right. this morning on "today food," we're dining with the all right. this morning on "today food," we're dining with the dalys. as the old saying go, necessity is, indeed, the mother of invention. and this mother, my wife, siri, has become crafty and creative when it comes to cooking these days our kitchen is under renovation. true story, we took in our and we cook in our laundry room. >> what do we call it?
