Harrowing moments on camera as mount etna explodes. The tv crew in the blast. Nightly news begins right now. From nbc news World Headquarters in new york, this is nbc nightly news with lester holt. Good evening to our viewers in the west. For the second day in a row a rare display of bipartisanship at the Nations Capital on a critical matter. The democrat and Republican Leaders joining together in a public rebuke of President Trumps wiretap claim. Like the house counterparts the day before, the senators saying they have seen nothing to substantiate claims that president obama had trump towers surveilled ahead of the 2016 elections, but there is no retreat when the white house tonight which is angrily firing back and offering news articles for the justification for the shocking claims. Hallie jackson has details. Reporter a bombshell statement triggering an explosive response. Hold on. Hold on. Hold on. Im making a point. Reporter after the Committee President trump wanted to investigation his accusation of spying, found theres nothing there. Quote, based on the Information Available to us, we see no indication that trump tower was the subject of surveillance by any element of the United States government before or after election day 2016. No surveillance, not even a wiretap according to the top democrat and republican on the Senate Intelligence committee. The president not convinced, not backing down. He stands by it, but youre mischaracterizing what happened today. The bottom line is the investigation by the house and senate has not been provided all the information. Reporter thats not what the Senate Intelligence committee says. We have seen no evidence at all about the president s tweet of 13 days ago that somehow obama tapped trump tower and somehow this was affecting part of the president ial race. Reporter today the president s press secretary refused to say whether the president accepted the findings. Lets go through what we do know. Reporter for a full eight minutes sean spicer cited a series of news reports accusing reporters of cherry picking narratives, reports that the president points to bolster his unproven accusation that president obama broke the law by spying on him. Ive been reading about things. I read in i think it was january 20th, a New York Times article where they were talking about wire tapping. Reporter it referred to surveillance targeting russians and did not mention president obama. Any classified information would have been shared by fbi director james comey with top lawmakers. One by one they have said they have seen no evidence to back up the president s claim. Comey himself will testify publicly monday, potentially putting this to rest. The question then, what next . How will the president respond to what his own fbi director has to say . Lester. Hallie jackson at the white house tonight. Thanks. Nicole wallace is an nbc news political analyst and former bush 43 communications director. Weve seen this president walk away time and time again from evidence. Is this one given the bipartisan nature of the rebuke that he can walk away from . Theres two flashing yellow lights for him. One, ive been out covering trump voters. A lot of them are twotime president obama voters. He accused the former president of a serious crime and a big man someone worthy of the office, might be thinking about an apology tonight. Number two, you now have the bipartisan republican led Intel Committee making the entire white house staff look profoundly weak and making clear that they dont have either the courage or the will to walk in and say to the president of the United States, mr. President , weve got your back but you got over your skis. Were going to stop defending this because its indefensible. Good to have you here. Now to a big fight brewing over money. President trump has unveiled his first budget proposal. The president is keeping his promise. Theres a lot more money for the military but critics say popular programs and the poor would pay the price. Nbcs Peter Alexander has details. Reporter its the primary promise of the trump presidency. We have America First, America First candidate. You now have an America First president and it shouldnt surprise anybody that we have a America First budget. Reporter the president s team says hes delivering. A budget blueprint spending nearly 60 billion on defense, Homeland Security and veterans care offset by deep and in some cases unprecedented cuts. The state department slashed by 29 targeting foreign aid. The Environmental Protection agency sliced by 31 including programs to combat climate change. We consider that a your money. Reporter the National Institutes of Health Budget trimmed by 6 billion. He said that would devastate his Breast Cancer research. If you have one in eight women getting Breast Cancer in their lifetime, you can imagine how many people are affected, families and communities are affected. Reporter critics say low income americans would be the hardest hit with sweeping cuts to Affordable Housing and job training programs. Eliminating federal aid to a federal grant to this meals on wheels program. It means that meals wont be served. People wont be helped. What do you say to the americans that are losing out . To take the federal money and give it to the states. We want to give you money for programs that dont work. I cant defend that anymore. Reporter the president does add money for school choice. As a charter operator that means we could get more funding to expand to serve more students. Reporter what the proposal doesnt do, balance the budget. Its done nothing to improve the fiscal picture that we face which is really quite significant and severe right now. Reporter the white house is also calling for more than 4 billion to build that border wall that President Trump said mexico will pay for. This budget outlines the president s priorities but democrats and some republicans say its dead on arrival. Lester. Thanks, peter. One last item of note regarding President Trump. Hes vowing to fight back after a pair of federal judges blocked his revised travel ban affecting six muslim majority countries hours before it was said to take effect. Its another setback after Appeals Court judges upheld a restraining order on the first version of the ban last month. Now to an nbc news exclusive. As the former doctor for usa gymnastics facing 23 Sexual Assault charges accused of preying on young women including at least one u. S. Olympian. Did the university fail to investigate him aggressively when one young woman came forward three years ago . Nbcs Stephanie Gosk investigates. Reporter back in 2014, dr. Larry nassar was the head doctor for usa gymnastics and a well respected on campus doctor at Michigan State university when a student went to School Officials with a troubling story. I felt so incredibly violated. Reporter it took place during an appointment for her hip and back pain. It was when he started to insert his fingers. Thats when i pushed him off and told him to stop. Did he have gloves on . No. Did he tell you he was about to do that . No. Reporter she immediately reported the incident to officials. The school conducted an investigation. The conclusion, we cannot find the conduct was of a sexual nature. The procedure was medically appropriate. The report reveals that msu interviewed three physicians and a trainer. All of whom worked for the university including one who said they were, quote, very good friends. All four were women who said they used the technique for pain but never under clothes and always with gloves. Campus Police Conducted its own investigation. The prosecutor decided not to press charges. Amanda was shocked. I knew that what he was doing to me was sexual. Reporter nassar stayed on the job two more years. In august 2016, amidst new allegations from former patients, he was fired. Gymnast Lindsay Lemke was dr. Nassars patient for three years when she was a teenager. She now believes what nassar called treatment back then was Sexual Assault over hundreds of sessions. Around 500 or more altogether. Reporter now an msu gymnast, she says the school seemed to be more concerned about keeping a lid on the allegations against dr. Nassar than offering her team support. Some other members of the team were his patients. Never were any of us asked do you feel like youre a victim or do you feel like you need to talk to somebody, these are the people you can talk to. Reporter she and two others tell nbc news that the head coach and director of athletic communication told the entire team not to talk to the media. The university declined nbc news requests for an interview citing the ongoing investigation. In statement Michigan State said, we have consistently and repeatedly tried to get information to the Msu Community pointing to media interviews, web postings and a letter from the msu president which was sent nearly four months after nassar was fired. As you start to hear details about what people allege larry nassar did, what affect does that have on you . I have to think about it all the time. I have to think about the fact that i knew it was wrong, and i came forward. I stood up for myself, and i was silenced. Reporter dr. Nassars lawyers said his techniques were medically accepted and appropriate and called the allegations against him patently false and untrue. More than 80 women have come forward alleging assault. The Michigan Attorney general says they keep getting calls. Stephanie gosk, nbc news, east lansing, michigan. Nearly every weeks for months there was been developments involving Cyber Espionage including yesterdays news of russian spies charge inside the yahoo attack. Tonight Cyber Security experts are warning of a threat to utilities that millions count on every day. Here is tom costello with more. Reporter theres a reason its called the dark web where nearly every computer server is masked, making them almost impossible to trace. A dark alley that can facility a massive hacks like the recent attack on yahoo now blamed on russian agents. It almost feels like a losing battle. Its become a top priority for police and intelligence agents all over the world. Reporter james lines showed us, hackers no longer have to write their own programs. Hold my hands. Ill make you rich. Reporter they can buy it prepackaged from hackers who advertise on the dark web. Among the big corporate names knocked offline, amazon, paypal and even wikipedia. Reporter the focus more on detecting and responding than preventing them. Cyber experts are now warning of another imminent threat. 13,000 telecom, power, water and other utilities in the u. S. That they believe have lax Cyber Security. Hack kers could walk right in. It wouldnt require very hightech tools. Reporter growing concern about a big jump in ransom ware attacks where hackers gain control of the computer and hold the network hostage until they are paid off. Its happened to hospital, community colleges, police departments, even the st. Louis Public Library where hackers locked up 1400 computers and demanded 35,000. It turned every computer at the st. Louis Public Library into a brick. Reporter because the library backed up the system, it refused to pay. An attack likely plotted on the dark web where anything goes with hackers leaving few tracks for law enforcement. Tom costello, nbc news, london. Theres a lot more ahead tonight. Crossing the line, could employers get access to your Genetic Information . Critics sounding the alarm about a controversial new proposal. The stunning moment caught on video when a camera crew gets way too close to an erupting volcano. Were back now with a controversy over Workplace Wellness programs. For years employers have used financial incentives to encourage workers to adopt healthier behaviors like quitting smoking. Now a bill in congress would allow them to do the same to get your Genetic Information and critics say thats an invasion of privacy. Nrk nbcs Anne Thompson has the story. Reporter in a world where we share almost everything, nurse jill kuntz is adamantly opposed to sharing Genetic Information at work. Youre asking them to reveal something about themselves that they dont need to reveal. Its their own information. Reporter shes taking to twitter and facebook to stop a federal bill that would make it easier for companies to get such information about employees and their families through voluntary Wellness Programs. Easier because companies could offer employees Health Insurance discounts of up to 30 to entice workers to share information about cancer or diabetes history, even undergo testing to manage their health. Information can only be collected and shared with a Third Party Provider such as a health care professional. Reporter critics arent convinced. Opposed by 70 medical advocacy groups that fear incentives would hurt those who opt not to share their Genetic Information forcing them to choose between money or privacy. Incentives that could run into thousands of dollars. I think it opens the door to the loss of genetic privacy. Reporter medical ethicist worries it could lead to discrimination based on faulty information. Do the Wellness Programs work . Since they dont have any data that they work and the genetic testing is inaccurate, its a bad combination to take what doesnt work and add whats inaccurate and say, yeah, lets change the law. Reporter trying to keep private the information that makes you you. Anne thompson, nbc news, new york. When we come back, the big change snl is making for the first time in its 42year history.

The small town of gander in newfoundland where for five long days after september 11, thousands of frightened Airline Passengers were forced to land and leave everything on the airliner. Gander provided food, clothing, prescriptions and love. There was a sense of kindness that happened. Its one of the reasons we talk about it as a 9 12 musical rather than a 9 11 musical. Mayor Claude Elliott knew his people would open their homes and hearts. We just like helping people. The limelight is not something were accustomed to. Reporter no one could have foreseen the intense bonds that would form. Nick and diane arrived on two different flights and nick proposed just two months later. Were so happy that the world is able to see the generosity and the love and the compassion of the gander people. It transcends party lines. Theres i dont think anything political about this show. Theres something human about it, and thats the important part. Reporter a message not lost on canadian Prime MinisterJustin Trudeau who attended last nights show and invited a special guest, ivanka trump. You hope shell invite her father to see the play . I think so.
