After mccarthy stunned colleagues by dropping out of the race. Ryan immediately became plan b. Even potential opponent chaffetz said he would step aside. The 45yearold married father of three already has hi dream job. Chairman of the ways and Means Committee and the overseas tax law. What absolute privilege and honor it is to chair this committee. Reporter but caseos comes with potential consequences, deadlines to make sure the country pays its bills and to avoid another government shut down.

We just heard what is at stake for all of us. How does this shake out. It is all in the hands of paul ryan. He is not only going home to talk about this with his family and his wife he is negotiated different ways to accept the job. If he did, it he would do it reluctantly. Perhaps temporarily, until the end of next year. But he doesnt want to travel and do the politics part of the job. If folks will agree to sort of those terms, i think all of the arm twisting and hes practically going to be in a sling by the time he comes back to washington his arm is being twisted so much but i think hell end up doing that. After that, it is Speaker Boehner or bust. Well see you for meet the press on sunday. All of the capitol chaos and sitdown with bernie sanders, again on sunday morning.

A National Guard presence remains and a new look at the daring rescues during the worst of it. Dave guiterrez has the latest sflfrnlts floodwaters reaching rooftops near the South Carolina coast.

This newly released video shows a man pulled to safety from the raging waters. The before and after images reveal the Staggering Amount of rain that devastated much of the state. All of that water now flowing downstream toward the coast as evacuations with under way. Do not assume you can wait this out. I never thought we would see the water cover our driveway. Tammy has live in andrews for 31 years. Were praying a lot. Hoping things will get better. Hope the water will go down real quick. Reporter even though a bit more rain is in the forecast this weekend, late today Emergency Management officials in one coastal county said though hope the worst is over but a page state through South Carolina, i95, remains closed, no word on when that will reopen. Lester. Gabe, thank you. Incredible and disturbing video out of texas. It captured the exact moment that Law Enforcement officials made a horrible discovery. Dozens of undocumented immigrants trapped in a sweltering truck and they may have remained in there if someone didnt notice something suspicious and called 911. Mark potter has the story. Reporter sheriffs deputies were stunned when they opened the truck door and more than three dozen desperate people began to fall out, gasping for air after hours locked inside with temperatures over 100 degrees, all caught on a police body camera. This man was asked, can you stand up. He said no. This 13yearold boy told officers, please help me. Just a surprise to see that many people in a hot trailer. They are sweaty and dehydrated and they just want out. Reporter Authorities Say the 28 men and seven women and four minors from Central America and mexico are all undocumented immigrants, being smuggled into the u. S. The truck driver, 33yearold drew christopher potter, was arrested but denied any wrongdoing. Hes now charged with smuggling conspiracy and illegally transported undocumented immigrants.

Lets turn back to politics and a growing controversy over ben carson, surging in the polls and in fundraising. But now facing backlash over what he said about guns and the holocaust. A fire storm that has carson on the defensive. We get our report from nbcs andrea mitchell. Reporter hes surging in the polls. Closing in on frontrunner donald trump. Likely raising more money than any other republican right now. Supporters like his softspoken manner. I was bringing my children so they could see one of our role models. Ben carson is a hero. Reporter but nice doesnt mean not provocative. On the holocaust he suggests that the jus could have fought back through guns. Writing, through a dom bination of removing guns and disseminating deceitful propaganda, the nazis were able to carry out their agenda with little resistance. Not only the jews but the entire populous. This is a general pattern that you see before tyranny occurs. Also telling me today if he was in oregon, he would have fought back. In a situation where you have a mad man who was systematically assassin ating people, after asking them a question. And they are all there, waiting their turn, i would not wait my turn. I would say, lets do something. You know, attack. Why would you just sit there and allow him to do that . Reporter so what is it about carson and donald trump that appeals to Republican Voters . They are willing to give them a pass on what they arent necessarily happy about, whether it is the controversial statement because they see them as fighters. This year candidates can say whatever they like as long as they dont sound like politicians. Andrea mitchell, nbc news, washington.

Nbcs bill neely takes us there. Reporter north korea is preparing for its biggest show of strength. Its people being drilled for a military parade. No one dares put a foot wrong. This is not a place where you step out of line. Behind the walls of the ruling community party, they are writing a warning message for america dont mess with us. It is a country of bicycles, but of a nuclear bomb too. Normally, it is the worlds most closed, reclusive country, but nbc has been given rare access to its capital and its metro. The interesting thing is that nearly everyone here is wearing a party bath. Most of them with a picture of the countrys founder on it. They are now ruled by kim jongun who they tell us they all support. Yes. Reporter this is what north korea wants to show us. This is what it hides. Life in what of the poorest, most repressed countries in the world. Where famine stalks the countryside. Where protests are smothered. For even words gej the regime are enough to have you executed. This is the reality beyond the capitol. Where tomorrow the leader will parade his weapons, his defiance of america and boast of life in what he called his workers paradi paradise.

Reporter out of the painful disconnected moments spanning decades, voices of these cosby accusers are now united. How many of you believe you were drugged by bill cosby . How many of you believe bill cosby raped you . But as his legal team has repeatedly pointed out, the 78yearold has never been charged with a crime. The sheer number of his accusers they say does not make their stories true. How many of you reported anything to police at the time of the incident . Nobody . Did anybody of you go to a hospital for a rape kit exam . Cosbys attorney has said, quote, it is completely illogical that so many people would have said nothing, done nothing, and made no reports. When it happened to me, there was no such thing of date rape. I never heard of somebody being drugged and raped. Because it wasnt done. Rape was done but somebody on the street.
