The places i come from, we dont deal with that kind of petty nonsense. Tillerson also claiming hes never considered resigning, but senior officials telling nbc news he threatened to. This morning, the latest on the state department in turmoil. All that plus, will a new hurricane hit the gulf coast this weekend . And nfl star under fire for this response to a reporters question. Its funny to hear a female talk about routes. And a vaccination controversy thats landed this mom behind bars today, thursday, october 5th, 2017. Announcer from nbc news, this is today with matt lauer and savannah guthrie, live from studio 1a in rockefeller plaza. Good morning, everybody. Welcome to today on a thursday morning. Its good to have you with us. And that News Conference from the sheriff yesterday really raised some questions. Yeah, if you paid attention to the things he was saying, there were a lot of things that made you stop and think, wait a minute. We only know very little about what happened. Yeah, this investigation is just Getting Started really. Lets give you where it stands. The sheriff is saying based on the level of planning and the number of weapons here, he now believes Stephen Paddock, quote, had to have help. Hes also revealed that investigators found an additional 1600 rounds of ammunition and 50 pounds of explosives in the gunmans car. Officials have now given the first detailed timeline of sunday nights events, from the first shots that rang out at 10 05 p. M. To the moment officers set off explosives and entered Paddocks Hotel room 75 minutes later. Authorities are also confirming that paddock rented a room at the nearby ogden hotel a week earlier that overlooked another outlook music festival. At this point, they are not sure why. We have two reports. Well have new information on what paddocks girlfriend is saying to investigators. Lets start with Miguel Almaguer in las vegas. Good morning. Reporter good morning. The crime scene adjacent to the mandalay bay behind me is still cordoned off by investigators still looking for evidence. They say the suspect spent decades acquiring his massive arsenal. They also want to speak to those who knew him best. It seems like its coming from up there. Oh, [ bleep ]. Reporter this morning, a new int perspective of the massacre in vegas. A cabdriver rushing victims to safety. Oh, god, there is an active shooter. Okay. Reporter this as investigators release a new t e timeline. 10 05 p. M. , the first shots fired, the start of a tenminute volley. 13 minutes later, a Security Officer approaches Stephen Paddocks snipers nest. The killer firing more than 200 rounds at him through the door. 10 55, officers surround the room. 11 20 p. M. , the gunman found dead. The Security Guard helped police clear guests from the hotel, even after being shot in the leg, is now being praised by Law Enforcement officials. His bravery was amazing because he remained with our officers, provided them the key pass to access the door and actually continued to help them clear rooms until our officer demanded that he go seek medical attention. Reporter inside paddocks car, investigators find 1600 rounds of ammo. Several containers of materials used to make explosives. Police offered no evidence but suggested paddock did have an escape plan and possibly help. Youve got to make the assumpti assumption, he had to have some help at some point. Reporter four days after the killing spree, investigators are still searching for a motive. Marilou danley, the gunmans girlfriend, back from the philippines, has been questioned by the fbi. Police say danley is not a suspect. Her attorney reading her statement. I knew Stephen Paddock as a kind and caring, quiet man. He never said anything to me or took any action that i was aware of that i understood in any way to be a warning that something horrible like this was going to happen. Reporter danley says her plane ticket and the 100,000 wired to her by Stephen Paddock before the attack was for a new family home. Authorities say paddock rented a room at another hotel a week before the shooting. Outside another musical festival. Was he doing presurveillance . We dont know yet, okay . We have a great country, and we are there for you. Reporter after meeting first responders, President Trump consoled victims like samantha feronda, shot three times in the arm. My whole arm went numb, and just my hand just was like dangling. Reporter this image of air force one leaving las vegas, flying behind the Mandalay Bay Hotel with the broken windows in clear sight quickly going viral. Today, over 100 victims still hospitalized. Theyre shooting right at us, guys. Everybody stay down. Stay down reporter this morning, the bloodshed is over, but there are still so many unanswered questions. This morning, investigators say they still want to speak to a woman who was spotted with paddock in the days before the shooting. Its unclear what connection, if any, she may have to the crime scene. Investigators are still trying to locate her. Matt and savannah . Miguel almaguer starting us off. Thank you. A lot to discuss with pete williams. Good morning to you. Lets start with Marilou Danley and what shes telling investigators. Where is that taking the investigation . Too soon to tell. Theyre taking her statement at face value. Any time an important witness tells the fbi and police something, theyll work to corroborate it. For example, they want to know whether steven paddock bought all those guns himself, and if he didnt, they want to know what anyone who helped him was thinking. The investigators are grateful for her cooperation, but theyll have many more questions for her. Shes the woman that knew him better than anybody else for the past few years. One of the questions, pete, why did he target this particular music festival, this Country Music festival . They dont know that yet. They say that he appeared to be at least considering other targets. He not only booked rooms in a highrise condo overlooking a concert the week before, but investigators say he also made reservations in other hotels last weekend that afforded a similar Vantage Point looking down on the Country Music concert. Apparently keeping his options open until he settled on the mandalay bay. Anything new on the weapons, pete . They say he started buying guns 35 years ago and bought them in four states, but what theyre really keying in on is that they say he bought 33 of the guns he owned. Thats nearly three quarters of them, mostly rifles, in the past year. What they want to know is what happened a year ago that caused him to suddenly start arming himself up . A lot of people have come to know what bump stocks are, which is a modification to a gun that can make it fire like an automatic weapon. Theres movement now on capitol hill, perhaps, to make these illegal . Right. Bump stocks like this. They use the recoil of the rifle to help pull the trigger much faster. It is almost like a machine gun. Senator Diane Feinstein introduced a bill wednesday to ban them. Even possession of them. Normally, anything connected to gun control is a lost cause in congress, but this time, several republicans say they are willing to consider this one. Pete, before you go, sheriff lombardo said something in the News Conference last night that i think raised eyebrows. He said he may have seen some information and evidence that leads him to believe that Stephen Paddock may have had an escape plan. Do you know anything more on that . We dont know what he meant by that. What we assume is that he planned to survive the shooting attack. Of course, shortly after the shooting stopped, as soon as the police and the security people started coming to his door, he eventually took his own life. Pete williams in washington, thank you very much. Lot more to get to this morning, including the strong reaction over exclusive reporting by nbc news that exposed a growing riff between President Trump and his secretary of state Rex Tillerson. Nbcs Andrea Mitchell is on the story again for us this morning. Good morning to you. Reporter good morning, savannah. The president S National Security cabinet in turmoil today over our report of a toxic relationship between the white house and the secretary of state. The president , the Vice President and Rex Tillerson himself rushed to deny that hed ever thought of quitting. This morning, the president and his secretary of state trying to contain the fallout from an exclusive nbc news report about a widening riff between them. Rex tillerson now denying he was on the verge of resigning this summer. I have never considered leaving this post. Reporter and offering praise for the president. Let me tell you what ive learned about this president , whom i did not know before taking this office. He loves his country. He puts americans and america first. Hes smart. Reporter President Trump in las vegas, insisting tillerson has his support. Thank you. Total confidence in rex. I have total confidence. Reporter and mr. Trump dismissing the nbc report outright. It was fake news. It was a totally phony story. Thank you very much. It was made up. It was made up by nbc. Reporter Senior Administration officials confirmed to nbc news tillerson did threaten to resign in july after a series of disagreements with the president and was talked out of it by defense secretary james mattis and incoming chief of staff john kelly. The president and tillerson clashing over iran, a dispute over u. S. Allies in the persian gulf and north korea. The frustration boiling over with tillerson openly disparaging the president as a moran after a meeting at the pentagon. Three senior officials told nbc news. Asked for a response, tillerson, wednesday, not denying the remark. The places i come from, we dont deal with that kind of petty nonsense, and it is intended to do nothing but divide people. Reporter hours later, a spokesperson who didnt attend the meeting denied the comment. He did not say that. Reporter on capitol hill, Senate Foreign relations chairman, bob corker, despite his past criticism of tillerson for trying to slash the state departments budget, voiced support for tillerson as well as the former generals advising the president. I think secretary tillerson, secretary mattis and chief of staff kelly are those people that help separate our country from chaos. Reporter senator corker also suggested the president has not given his secretary of state the backing that he needs to do his job effectively. Despite all the denials, many sources in both camps say that this is a relationship beyond repair and, in fact, the only reason the president is not firing secretary tillerson is he has already gotten rid of so many people in his cabinet and Top White House staff that he cant afford more political damage. Matt and savannah . Andrea mitchell, thank you. Also this morning, a new tropical system has developed. It could hit the southern u. S. As a hurricane this weekend. Al, i know a lot of people hoping they never get to meet a guy named nate. Thats exactly right. Weve been talking about the fact that were seeing the Development Area shift from the eastern atlantic to now basically right along the southeastern coast and down through the caribbean. Thats where were seeing the development. This most likely area, the area in orange, thats where we have tropical depression 16. 35mileperhour winds, northwest at 7. Has to make interaction with nicaragua, honduras. Look how warm the water is. 81 to 84. We expect it to make landfall early sunday. We put the european model, the american model and the National Hurricane center track, and you can see the european model has been further to the west. The National Hurricane center plot is following along with that. Sometime sunday morning sunday afternoon, we have landfall somewhere near new orleans. Then it continues its way up into parts of the southeast. In fact, theres even a category 1 storm near atlanta on monday morning. Guys, were going to be watching this very carefully. Again, we have to get it through nicaragua and honduras, but we continue it to intensify. The rapid intensification is what were worried about. To clarify, it would be named nate if it develops in that way. Yes. Thank you, sir. Al, thank you. Now a scandal thats rocking washington this morning. A popular republican congressman now says he will retire at the end of his term, amid fallout from an admitted affair. Kasie hunt is on capitol hill for us with more on this. Good morning. Reporter savannah, good morning. A popular republican congressman, tim murphy of pennsylvania, had already admitted to having an extramarital affair. Now he is announcing he is not going to come back to washington after a bombshell report revealed he urged the same woman to have an abortion. Embroiled in a growing sex scandal. We have an awful, awful mess in this country. Reporter pennsylvania congressman tim murphy announced he will not seek reelection next year. The 65yearold republican taking heat in the wake of a bombshell report detailing an extramarital affair. He now says he will take personal time to seek help and that he and his family are working through personal difficulties. An eightterm congressman, murphy is a prominent member of the house prolife caucus. This week, he voted for legislation that bans abortions after 20 weeks. The bill is passed reporter Text Messages obtained by the pittsburgh gazette seems to suggest murphy asked his mistress to terminate a pregnancy. A psychologist who murphy admittedly has had an affair texted him about a pregnancy scare in january. Writing, zero issue of posting your stance on prolife, but you had zero problems with asking me to get an abortion. He said, i never wrote them. I read it and winced. It came to light during edwards own divorce proceedings. New allegations of the hostile Work Environment in congressman murphys office. His chief of staff writing a sixpage memo saying he threatened his staff. His behavior described as angry, aggressive and abusive. Tuesday, murphy refused to answer questions from reporters. Wednesday, he met with House Speaker paul ryan before announcing hed retire. So the committee that is tasked with electing republicans to the house of representatives says they are extremely disappointed in the circumstances surrounding congressman murphys retirement, but they remain confident that his pittsburgh area district is going to stay in republican hands.

The push for increased security at hotels in the wake of the Las Vegas Shooting. National investigative correspondent jeff rossen is in las vegas with more. Good morning to you. Reporter hey, guys. Good morning to you. Think about it. When you go to an airport and check in, they cant get through to the gates until you are searched, until your bags are scanned. The question now is, should they be doing the same thing at hotels, or is that too much . Right now, im standing in a room at mandalay bay, where this all went down. Stephen paddock was literally able to do whatever he wanted us here. Once he got the suitcases with the weapons through the lobby, able to do whatever he wanted. Reportedly even came over here and took one of these do not disturb signs and put it on the door for days so Hotel Workers wouldnt come in and see his stash. Couldnt see what he was up to. This morning, Security Experts across the country agree, hotels need to do more. [ gunshots ] just days after Stephen Paddock opened fire from his room at mandalay bay, new focus on how he got the weapons inside undetected. Officials now say he smuggled the guns in at least ten suitcases. Now Security Experts are calling for a nationwide ramp up. What can hotels do right now today . Start by increasing security. Putting more people out on the floor. Having more Security Officers. Also look at bombsniffing dogs. They can find gun powder, explosive powder. Try to make it safer but not super intrusive. You check in and there are dogs in the lobby walking by. No one can slip in an arsenal of weapons like this. Right. The dog should be finding the gun powder and alerting their handlers, maybe we should ask you a couple questions. Reporter that kind of change takes time. Checking in, jeff rossen. Today, it remains business as usual at most hotels, like this one in new york city. Thank you very much. I appreciate it. Thank you. Just like that, like most hotels. This is no different than most of the country. I have my key. I have my luggage. Ill get on the elevators here and thats it. No checks. But scanning bags at hotels is already standard procedure in places like jerusalem, where guards check guests coming in. And in moscow, where nbc news just spotted metal detectors in this hotel lobby. In las vegas, video surfacing this week from the wynn and enco encore, showing bag checks and employees with handheld wands, searching guests. Experts say thats not a realistic, longterm fix. In fact, by Late Wednesday night, i checked in and no one stopped me at all. Im here at the wynn in vegas. Come on in. And im in my room now. No one searched by luggage. No one scanned me or searched me. Here we are in the room, overlooking the las vegas strip. There it is right out there. The public is right down there. Thats the strip. A few days after the shooting. Same situation when i check into mandalay bay, the scene of the crime. A Security Guard asks me to flash my key, but thats it. And were in the room here, too. Now experts say Hotels Across the country are working on new plans to increase security, and they have options. Lets talk about the windows for a moment. Of course. Reporter were at mandalay bay now. These are the very windows paddock reportedly used a hammer on to break through. Were on a different floor. Is there anything to be done, so you cant break these . Two things. Number one, put a sensor on it. Like a Home Security system youd have. The glass breaks, someone can come up and inspect it. Immediately. Immediately. Reporter the second is a clear film and cheaper. Prevents the window from shatteri shattering. Reporter you can sit with a hammer all day and it wont break. You sure can. Reporter mgm, the owner of mandalay bay, telling nbc news its increased the level of security. Its a top priority. Also telling us mgm resorts work with local and national law phone enforcement agencies. This is industry wide. We got in touch with the Hotel Industry association. They have been meeting all week, ever since this happened, in this new world we live in now. The new reality. To figure sure out what they can do to step up security and make everyone safer. Jeff rossen in las vegas. Thank you very much. Turn back to al for a check of the weather. Thats a messy map behind you. It is. We have a tropical wave right now thats affecting florida. This has nothing to do with what were expecting in the gulf later this weekend. Weve got this tropical wave that is going to surge up and bring gusty winds. Heavy rain. Anywhere through friday, 3 to 5 inches of rain, from key largo up into melbourne and orlando. Weve also got widespread showers and thunderstorms from new mexico all the way into the midwest today. In fact, as we look through friday, we could see upwards of 3 to 5 inches of rain. They even have flood watches this effect through saturday for new mexico, iowa, nebraska. Upwards of 5 i good morning, get ready for a warm day today. Well see sunshine, a few clouds, 83 degrees this afternoon in philadelphia. The suburbs . 81 degrees, a nice warmup in new jersey, 8 it 2, and 78 at the shore. Early this evening, spotty showers and thunderstorms reaching into the Lehigh Valley, but delaware is dry, sun, clouds, and warming into the 80s, and the warmth continues into the weekend. Have a great day. Dont forget, get the weather any time you need it. Check out the Weather Channel on cable. Al, thank you.

Weve got a warning this morning about how all that technology being put in cars these days is adding up to more and more distractions. Researchers at aaa found people taking their eyes off the road were 40 seconds at a time. Tom costello is doing sol drime driving right now. Reporter one in three adults has this technology in their cars. Were in a parking lot, not the open road. The bottom line is changing a Radio Station or changing the temperature in your car can be a lot more complicated these days than just pushing a button or turning a knob. The q7 offers amazing sound systems. Reporter in the 2017 new car market the uconnect system has seamless connectivity. Reporter it is all about technology. To view messages, drag the scroll bar up and down. Reporter interactive full screens, voice commands, email, text messaging, music, navigation, phone calls, wifi and full connectivity.

Reporter watch as this driver in salt lake nearly hits a woman in the crosswalk. This one nearly runs a stop sign while using a touchscreen. Stop sign. Reporter aaa and the university of utah studied 120 drivers trying to use the technology in 2017 models. Of the 30 vehicles tested, 23 demanded high or very high driver attention to use the interface. Some drivers were distracted for a full 40 seconds. On a closed maryland parking lot, i tried changing the Radio Station in a new car with lead researcher david strayer. How do you change screens here to get to a different from am and fm . Watch how long my eyes are off the road. Again, it is a closed course. I then try to voice command for a phone call. Dial. Lets try again. Say dial. Reporter just changing the temperature can require a touchscreen. I am spending so much time trying to figure out how to make a phone call or change the radio, im not looking at the cars ahead of me. Theyre much more distracting than talking on a cell phone. Reporter the Automotive Industry takes issue with the aaa study, saying researchers dont try to tie results to crash risk or simulate how drivers actually use the systems in the real world. But the aaa researchers disagree. By building these systems into cars, consumers assume theyre safe to use. This Research Shows clearly that that is not necessarily the case. Reporter a lot of auto makers require the vehicle to be stopped in order to type in the navigation. Guess what . 40 of the cars aaa tested allow you to type in navigation addresses while youre driving. Again, the aaa says this is a real serious risk. Baugh back to you.

Decide right now with your paddles, what do you think good, better and best is for breakfast . Bagel. Thats better. I dont know. This is best . You think thats best . I dont know. Were going to flip these over. You guys are exactly right. Nice. Why is this the best . I thought oatmeal would be the best. It has 40 grams of sugar in it. Thats the equivalent the sugar equivalent of three glazed doughnuts. This is a whole wheat bagel with strawberry cream cheese. The bacon, egg wrap is the best. 210 calories. We have a whopper with no mayo. Grilled chicken sandwich. A salad with grilled chicken. What is the best . I think this will be the best. The grilled chicken. This will be the beast. The b this is the best. The better. This is better. Wow. Youre right, this is best. The grilled chicken. Youre saying the burger is better than the salad . There is a snake in the garden. The problem there is its got a lot of fat, and thats what you want to avoid at lunch. You dont want to be sluggish in the afternoon. That has up to a half days worth of saturated fat from the croutons, the cheese and the dressing. What about the burger . Its coming in at 500. The whopper is better than the grilled chicken salad. Few seconds for dinner. Avoid the sodium. Steak and broccoli. Lean steak. This is a lemon chicken on rice. Shrimp. They all look healthy. Maybe the protein and the veg tees. Vegveggies . The best . Howd we do . Lets see. This is the best. You were right. 320 calories. A lot of protein. Its not packed with sodium. This has over a days worth of sodium in the salad here. The chicken is marinated, plus the dressing. You dont want to wake up feeling bloated, drink too much over dinner. This is your choice. Plenty of protein. Youll feel great. Im starving. Thanks so much. Over to hoda and kathie lee. Hey, kids. Hello. How are we doing . We are going to be talking mindful wellness. It is the third component of our initiative. Who is with us . The lovely sharin is a professional life coach. She focuses on strengthening the mind and body connection. Good to see you. Thrilled to be here. Tell us, why now is mindfulness so much in the dialogue . Well, mindfulness is a really great way to deal with stress and anxiety. Yup. It is pretty much being present and grounded in your day to day. Take us through some abcs, things we can do to get that feeling. People think it takes a lot of time, going to a 90minute yoga class, and that is great but sometime we dont have time. Incorporate it through a gratitude list. You ladies wrote this on your board, and id love the audience to think of three things youre grateful for this morning. Mine already smeared. Gods love, family and friends and health. Love it. Mine is haley joy, haley joy and haley joy. Where is kathie lee on the list . Youre number four. So thats important. Theres also something we can do with just basic breathing. We have a great group here that can help us with that. When were stressed out, we dont realize were breathing shallow, this is high chest breathing. Breath is a great way to ground us. Ill lead us on an easy technique we can do. Ready. One hand on our hearts. One hand on the abdomen. It is going to be very one breath in and one breath out. Through our nose or mouth . Through the nose and out through the mouth. Two breaths in, two breaths out. Three breaths in, three breaths out. Ideally, go up to four and back down to one. At home, you can do this for two to three minutes, and thats all you need to feel more grounded and centered in yourself. How do you feel, good . So zen. Thank you. Lets go back to matt. Hoda and kathie lee, thank you. You can get Daily Wellness tips from our one small thing newsletter by texting today to 88688. For more information, you can get that from our wellness team.
