The federal government is ramping up its relief effort in puerto rico as residents remain without adequate food, water, power or supplies.

A debt which he said must be dealt with. Fema says over 10,000 federal staff are helping with rescue and relief efforts. The massive clean up effort is leaving some residents feeling forgotten and overwhelmed. Nbcs Gabe Gutierrez has more. Reporter when maria rowerar on shore, they felt the impact.

Gabe gutierrez, nbc news, mount nabo, preerk. Today is a battle between the president and the nfl reaches a new level. It is extended into a fourth day. Dallas cowboys owner jerry jones who poured a Million Dollar into the president s inauguration linked arm in arm with his Football Team kneeling in a show of unity. The Arizona Cardinals stood together inter locked in defiance and solidarity. The president fanned the flames with some 15 tweets since friday as the controversy continues to make headlines. Heres nbc sports bob costas. When you start calling people sobs, when you start dehumanizing them and you start making it appear as if the definition of patriotism belongs only to those who agree with you, somehow, somehow people who think of themselves as conservatives view themselves as automatically more patriotic than those who are moderate or left of center. That isnt necessarily true. The vicepresident is also following suit, tweeting on the issue before voicing his opinion before a rally in alabama. Now, folks, weve all got a right to our opinions. But i dont think its too much to ask the players in the National Football league to stand for our National Anthem. And i know the people of alabama agree. This morning one Administration Official is telling politico, mr. Trump dug in on his feud with nfl players as a way of stirring up his base. And while major nfl players are digging in their heels on the decision to protest, one player is steelers defensive tackle and former army ranger stood alone on the field during the anthem sunday.

It wasnt me stepping forward. I never planned to boycott the plan they came up with. He apparently deleted his twitter account in the last couple days, no doubt due to the immense scrutiny following sundays game. In washington the gops latest attempt to repeal obamacare is on life support. Republican senator Susan Collins came out against the bill becoming the crucial third lawmaker to oppose it. Obviously this was an issue to which i have given a great deal of thought because there are many problems in the Affordable Care act that do need to be fixed. However, it was clear to me that the Graham Cassidy bill was not the answer. Collins opposition came as nearly 200 demonstrators were arrested on capitol hill, dragged out of a committee proceeding on the gops plan, chanting shame at its chief architects, senators bill cassidy and Lindsey Graham. Overnight late night Host Jimmy Kimmel who has been at the center of the Health Care Debate for weeks celebrated the bills apparent defeat. One of the two key republican hold outs, Susan Collins the senator from maine, said she would not support Graham Cassidy, which means [cheering and applauding] the bill is almost certainly dead or at least on life support which isnt covered so it will be dead. Thank you, senator collins. For more on this we go to nbcs tracy potts. Tracy, now where does the bill go from here . Reporter whats next is if republicans cant convince one of these three members to change their minds, that could be it for this week for what the Republican Partys best chance to get rid of obamacare. Weve got Susan Collins now along with rand paul and john mccain all saying no. That is one more than the Republican Party can afford. Lindsey graham, one of the authors of the bill last night in a debate on cnn, saying that were going to press on. Its okay to vote. Its okay to fall short. Raising the question of whether the party will even bring this up for a vote if they know its going to fail. And then overnight, President Trump tweeting video of Lindsey Graham putting pressure on him over and over saying how he wanted to repeal obamacare. The president saying, my oh, my, hasnt he changed. We saw those demonstrations here on capitol hill nearly 200 people arrested. Democrats are putting the pressure on. The president is putting the pressure on. But at this point, if republicans cant tweak something in this bill to get at least one more person on board, then they wont meet saturdays deadline and the significance there is that after saturday, it will take more, even 60 votes to get rid of the Affordable Care act. Philip . Quite an uphill battle for the president. Tracie, thank you. A helicopter crashed into the roof of a home in odessa, oklahoma. He suffered lifethreatening injuries.

Mcmaster is reportedly saying north korea must declare it is willing to give up atomic weapons to accept Nuclear Inspections before the u. S. Will enter negotiations. Mcmaster said the u. S. Is gaining out five to four scenarios for the Nuclear Threat and, quote, some are uglier than others. Nbcs chief correspondent Richard Engel has more on this heated nuclear standoff. Reporter on the same day north korea said the u. S. Has declared war, it released a computer simulation showing how it would destroy american aircraft and set a carrier ablaze. Its propaganda, but experts say there is now a real risk of an exchange of fire with nucleararmed north korea, or worst. The growing concern comes after President Trump stepped up his personal insults against kim jongun labeling him little rocket man and tweeting, he wont be around much longer. Beyond rhetoric, the u. S. This weekend flew two advanced bombers near north koreas border. North koreas foreign minister replied. Since the United States declared war on our country, he said, we will have the right to make Counter Measures including shooting down u. S. Bombers even outside north korean air space. We have not declared war on north korea and frankly the suggestion of that is absurd. Reporter former nato supreme admiral commander, and nbc news contributor said this may go beyond a war of words. I would say the chances of an exchange of ordinance are now approaching 50 50. Reporter he says north korea could fire at an american jet or ship. The u. S. Would fire back. We are at such a high level of potential escalation to fullblown war because of the relative inexperience of the leader in pyongyang and the leader in washington. Reporter the spokesman for the United Nations seemed to agree. Fiery talk can lead to fatal misunderstandings. Reporter concerned President Trump and kim jonguns game of brink man ship could become a conflict. The big worry among experts is that there is some exchange of fire, perhaps fuelled by the rhetoric, and that it snowballs. Today the National Security advisor h. R. Mcmaster said the u. S. Dz doesnt want a war but cant discount the possibility. Richard engel, nbc news, london. All right, richard, thank you. Twitter is promising to clarify its rules after saying that President Trumps tweets threatening north korea do not violate its terms of service.
