decision to make. ambassador taylor, we learned yesterday that the u.s. ambassador to russia met with detained wall street journal reporter evan ger sh goe wits. i think the concern amongst reporters, among evan s friend and those who believe has been made very clear that the allegations are fraudulent and aren t based on reality, that he kind of fades out of view and that s a problem if there s not public sentiment continually pushing for this. can you take us behind the scenes as a foreign service officer, what s happening as they try to work towards securing a release? so, phil, it s not behind the scenes. it s not out of the minds of u.s. officials. the u.s. government in all of its elements is focussed on getting him out. wrongfully detained means he is

you need scientific data if you have tiktok endorsements? joking aside. i think one of the big questions when anything like this pops into the mainstream, are there any risks here? should people be cognizant of specific concerns before doing something like this? reporter: absolutely. so people who are pregnant or breast-feeding should not take this. it should not be given to infants. and of course it could interact with certain medications. so talk to your doctor if you do take berks berine. there are side effects abdomen, nausea. that s important to keep in mind as well. thank you so much. absolutely. now to dramatic video of a police pursuit, showing a semi going the wrong way on a texas highway with speeds topping 85 miles an hour. watch this. he s still he s on the shoulder on the southbound lane going northbound. we re going over 80 miles an hour. now the driver refused to stop, according to the texas department of public safety. police say eventually the driver and
