There they would plan and meet and coordinate a lot of their activity. Activity that included fundraising, through extortion, according to federal officials.

In a series of tweets today, President Trump appears to threaten the now former fbi director james comey. The president said comey should, quote, hope that there are no tapes of their Nbcs Lester Holt comey had told him he is not under investigation. Today sean spicer declined to say whether any recordings in the white house may exist. Ive talked to the president. The president has nothing further to added on that. Why would he tweet that . The president has nothing further to add to that. Are there recording devices in the oval office . Its not appropriate to comment on that. Is it appropriate to threaten mr. Comey . Its not a threat. The tweet speaks for itself. Im moving on. The Senate Intelligence committee invited comey to appear next week, but he has declined that invitation. The ranking democrats on the House Committee have sent a letter requesting copies of any recordings related to comey. And this dinner comey had with the president. Comments by the president in our nbc news interview are getting pushback today. In particular that james comey asked to have dinner with the president with t president at the white house. They say comey was asked to come to the white house and did so reluctantly. They recall that comey said during the dinner, mr. Trump asked him if he would be loyal to the president. And comey said that he couldnt promise that, but that he could promise he would always be honest. The white house says that version is not accurate and that the president would not say he expected personal loyalty. Ill have more coming up on nbc nightly news. Im here at the live desk, new details in the suspected cyber attack thats rocked hospitals and Major Companies throughout the world. Businesses here in th are prepared because the threat could hit here on our shores. The Malware Threat blocked access to computers in exchange for a ransom. Vhs said its offering help to the affected countries. The hackers targeted 16 hospitals in england. Russias interior ministry, spains Largest Telecommunications company and delivery giant fedex. Officials are asking patients to not go to the hospital unless its an emergency. An expert said this is probably the biggest ransom ware attack ever.

For metro rail riders, most fares will increase from 10 to 25 cents. Metro bus goes up to express bus will increase to 4. 25. If they raise fares and reduce service . Then im going to have to drive. Its just that simple. I would love to see a Regional Sales tax in lieu of increasing fares. Will you continue taking metro . Well, for now, i dont have a choice, because i cant get parking when i go to work. So i will have to keep on taking it until i can get parking. Reporter metro expects the changes will increase revenue in time for maintenance, resulting in a more reliable and safer Public Transit system. This is chris gordon, news4. Thank you, chris. Its not the top headline out of the white house today, but there is big news about a new crackdown on drug offenders. The shift in policy that the department of justice is embracing. D. C. Is a no drone zone as you know. So why was this one flying around the Capitol Building today . Im Carol Maloney at the Verizon Center. Who turned the lights off . Wizards need to light it up here at home like theyve been the entire postseason. One player said, they win tonight or this year is a waste. More from the w iz previous administration, attorney general Jeff Sessions says federal prosecutors should seek maximum punishment for drug related offenses. Sessions sent a memo urging that prosecutors file, quote, the most serious, readily provable charges with the most substantial punishment that includes mandatory minimums. Sessions said charging and sentences recommendations are bedrock principles for any prosecutor. We are going to meet our responsibility to enforce the law with judgment and fairness. It is simply the right and moral thing to do. Reporter a directive by a. G. Holder had them not report amounts of drugs involved if they would trigger the mandatory minimum for most nonviolent offenders. We want to dig a little bit deeper into what this means and how our prisons and minimum sentences stack up with the rest of the world. The United States is most populous country, but has the largest prison population, more than two million strong. Even if you combine china and brazil, which both have more people than the u. S. , they still have fewer inmates than we do. Now, prosecutors often make decisions that can affect sentences and how much money flows into the prisons. Geo and Corrections Corporation of america are the two largest forprofit Prison Companies in the u. S. And the Justice Policy institute put out a report showing they have a combined annual revenue of more than 3 billion. Now, federal guidelines also reveal some discrepancies as well. Take a look at marijuana. A hundred kilos will get you a fiveyear minimum sentence. When it comes to powder cocaine, its 500 grams. With you look at the difference with crack cocaine. Five grams. And of course that drug is far more areas. Chris, thank you. Its National Police week, and downtown the u. S.

Big game for the wizards tonight. Win over the celtics and they keep the season alive. Lose and it all comes to Carol Maloney, i dont know if we can handle another elimination right now, after the caps a couple nights ago. Yeah, i hope we dont have to figure out how to handle that. The wizards are trying to forget what happened on wednesday. Theres two different teams to the wizards this postseason. The one that got blown out in boston. And the one thats shown up here at Verizon Center, and thats the one they need here tonight for game six. We dislike each other. We refuse to let you come on our floor and try to get a win. I think weve been doing a good job of that, both teams. The crowds been amazing in both places. And boston, the crowd has been unbelievable. When they had tough stretches, their crowd has got them back in the game. As a starter, you feed off the energy from the crowd. Their play at home, spot on. Wizards, 50 as Verizon Center but a year that gave fans 49 regular season wins and a division title, wont mean anything unless theyre able to get the job done tonight. It would be a disappointing season. Tonight would be a waste if we dont get to where we want to go. Giving ourselves one more chance to fight. We just want to win super bad. We definitely have to protect our home floor. We both realize in order for us to be good teams and successful teams in the playoffs, we have to win on the road, we have to protect our house. Youve played in front of the crowd, 41 times during the regular season. So the rims, the court, everything is familiar. That being said, we still gotta play well. Game six is great. Its on our home floor. We lost a game. Now its our turn to bounce back and come back with a great effort. And put ourselves with a chance to win the game. Protect the house, force a game seven and then worry about how to win on the road. You know, though, the tonight and tip at 8 00. Everybody shoots better on their home court.

Reporter Andrew Maguire said its a 100 million a year industry. Hes trademarked the phrase, got topa . If you get topa rights, and someone knocks on your door and you know its not worth 500,000 . It will rise the price of homes, because if its bought by a developer, theyre going to pass that cost on to the next purchaser. Reporter even critics agree the law serves a purpose.

We know this was not the intent of the law. So we have to address it.
