A lot more to get to this morning, including the newest battle over health care. President trump now offering his support for the latest attempt by republicans to repeal obamaca obamacare. But there are vocal critics lining up from washington and hollywood. Kasie hunt is on capitol hill with more on that. Good morning to you. Reporter good morning. It did seem like republican efforts to repeal and replace obamacare were dead, but not so fast. This new effort could actually pass the senate, coming up next week, and it has sparked an unusual fight between a louisiana senator and a latenight comedian. Jimmy kimmel fired up and firing back. He made a total about face, which means he either doesnt understand his own bill or he lied to me. As simple as that. Reporter doubling down on his criticism of republican senator bill cassidy and the new gop Health Care Bill, sponsored by cassidy and graham. He said anything he reported would have to pass what he named the jimmy kimmel test, which was fine. It was good. Unfortunately, and puzzlingly, he proposed a bill that would allow states do all the things he said he wouldnt allow them to do. Reporter kimmel went public about his sons heart detect in may, the clip going viral. Billy was born with a heart disease. Reporter on wednesday, cassidy defended himself to nbc after kimmel went after him the night before. He called you a liar last night. It was a personal attack, and i cant help that. All i can say is if youre in texas or if youre in maine and virginia, missouri, there will be resources in your state youve not had to provide you coverage. And we have protections from preexisting conditions. Reporter President Trump coming to the senators defense on twitter. Writing, i would not sign grahamcassidy if it didnt include preexisting conditions. It does. But it allows states to optout of covering preexisting conditions, though theyd have to explain how they plan to keep those people covered. The bill makes sweeping changes. Redistricting Medicaid Expansion and obamacare subsidy money to individual states, to let them implement their own plans. Now the race to find 50 votes is on. Majority leader mitch mccconnel making plans to bring it to the floor before september 30th. It has a chance. Tremendous support from republicans. Certainly, were 47 or 48 already senators, and others are viewing it positively. Reporter they can only lose two votes. Eyes are on john mccain and lisa murkowski. Are you ready to support it . Nope. Reporter democrats scrambling to defend obamas former achievement. Mobilizing every couple months to keep our leaders from inflicting human suffering on our constituents. Reporter its not just democrats. Insurance companies are warning that this bill could destabilize the market. Hospital groups, nurses groups, all opposed to this. Republicans are pressing ahead anyway, and right now, as of the current vote count, it is entirely possible this could pass the senate next week. Matt, savannah . Kasie hunt on the hill for us. Health care was one of the topics covered in our nbc news wall street journal poll. President trump got 27 approval with 53 saying theyre dissatisfied. Overall, the president s Approval Rating is up for the First Time Since february. 43 Approval Rating, threepoint jump over last month. One possible reason, the bipartisan debt ceiling and hurricane deal he made with democratic leaders. That got the approval of 71 of the polls respondents. President trump has another busy day here in new york. Hell meet with the president of south korea and the Prime Minister of japan. This days after trumps stern warnings to iran and north korea in the address to the u. N. North korean officials have responded to that now, comparing the president s speech to, quote, the sound of a dog barking. This morning, there are also new developments in the russia investigation. Reports that special Counsel Robert Mueller is asking the white house now to turn over documents related to both the president s Oval Office Meeting with russian officials and the firings of his National Security adviser and fbi director. Were happy to be joined now by President Trumps current National Security adviser, general h. R. Mcmaster. Nice to see you. Welcome to new york. Thank you. Great to be here. Let me start with iran. The president has said hes made his decision on what he wants to do with the Iran Nuclear Deal but he hasnt revealed the contents of the decision. Its been reported he wants to renegotiate certain aspects of the deal. For example, the term, when it will expire. Also, a part of the deal that might allow iran to develop ballistic missiles. Is that accurate . That is accurate. I think what is different about President Trumps approach to the nuclear deal is his approach to iran broadly. Previously, the approach to iran was all about getting this deal. And while that focus was happening, and that was the focus of policy, iran engaged in a broad range of destabilizing activities. Is he trying to pick apart these aspects of the deal to scrap the thing in its entirety, or is it about those two aspects . It is really about how this our approach to this deal fits into a broader iran strategy. To address what iran is doing, which is immeshing the greater middle east in conflict, helping to perpetuate this humanitarian and political catastrophe from, you know, lebanon to syria to iraq to yemen. Just to be clear about it, are you saying he is going to rip up the deal . The u. S. Is going to exit from the deal . No, im not saying anything yet about it. When the announcement is made, it will fit in to a fundamentally sound and broad strategy aimed at addressing irans destabilizing behavior and prioritizing protecting american vital interests. Irans president said, look, if the americans try to mess with the deal, we may enrich uranium again. They were close to breakout capacity, getting a nuclear weapon, which led to the deal. Even if you hate the deal, wouldnt that be a worst outcome now . The program they said never existed, theyll restart . They in violation of the agreement . We dont know. They walked up to the line and crossed the line. Too much heavy water. When theyre confronted, they backed off of that. But, of course, the inspection regime is not that robust. One of the first things that has to happen is it has to be rigorously enforced. The worst thing that could happen is if this deal provides cover for iran to get a nuclear capability. Of course, all the while, you mentioned the sunset clause is a problem. Also the fact they have a Missile Program that is continuing unabated by this deal. Real quickly, do you think this is something where the iranians have any incentive to come to the table . What leverage does the president have . Those sanctions that were crippling the iranian economy with gone. Why would they talk about this . What iran needs to be is incentivized to stop its destructive behavior across the region. That has caused so much human suffering. So the idea is, our approach to iran has to change fundamentally. We have largely in recent years vacated very Important Competitive space with iran. In the Sophisticated Campaign of subversi subversion, where theyre creating a hezbollah model across the greater middle east. North korea, the president said if were forced to defend our allies or ourselves, well totally destroy north korea. What would be the definition of forced to defend ourselves . Would it be an allout attack from north korea . Would it be the launching of a missile capped with a Nuclear Device . Would it be testing another missile that can reach the United States or detonating another Hydrogen Bomb . What defines defending ourselves . Attacks on ourselves or allies. Actual attack . Of course, of course. Now, of course, this is a regime that if you look at from 1953, from the armestats, north korea engaged in violent behavior, including assassinating leaders of south korea, cabinet officials, direct military attacks to sinking of ships. In terms of trprovocation, thiss nothing new. What is new is the grave danger to the world if this regime has a nuclear weapon. Before i let you go, we have to ask you about the developments in the russia investigation. The Washington Post and the New York Times are reporting the special counsel, robert mueller, is zeroing in on the president s own actions, including an Oval Office Meeting that you, yourself, attended with the Russian Ambassador and foreign minister. I believe it was the day after james comey was fired from his position. Have you personally or your lawyer been contacted by the special counsels office for either documents, evidence, or your testimony . This is really not my area of responsibility. Today, what were really focused on is the meetings you mentioned. Also very important meetings with two nations whose sovereignty has been threatened. Forgive me. Have you been asked . No, i have not. Youve not received any contact . Im busy with other things. Has your lawyer or representative of yours . Ive been busy with other things and have not been contacted. Can i ask you on the russia investigation, the president called it a taxpayer funded sher ra charade, this investigate into whether his campaign colluded with russia. Do you agree with that . Do you think this is a legitimate investigation . This is not an area im focused on at all. We have a very important meeting with the president of afghanistan, who has been doing a brilliant job in leading his country through a difficult time. As you know, the president announced a new strategy for afghanistan. The first time weve had a fundamentally sound strategy there that matches what were doing militarily. General, forgive me. So thats this is what im concerned about. Genera i have no basis to answer your questions on the other topic. We can take a hibt. Hint. Yes, we can. Good to have you in new york. Lets get the weather from mr. Roker. Quick look at whats going on today. Were looking at possibility high record temperatures up through the upper midwest. Scattered storms through the gulf coast.

Joining us is the secretary of state of puerto rico. Hes with us now. Mr. Secretary, glad youre able to speak to us. I know youve been out looking at what happened. What is the damage there . What are you seeing . Well, certainly devastation. Good morning, savannah. Last night, it was a real long day. Because after the winds stopped, the Hurricane Force winds left the island, it was pouring 25 inches of rain in some areas. So flood zones were greatly affected. Even before the storm hit, there was a plea for people to move to Higher Ground and go to the different shelters. Some stayed. This is like a 100 years flood, in terms of what we are seeing. Certainly, First Responders have been busy. I left a site yesterday near midnight, and people in the rooftops we s rooftops, trying to pull them out. We have crews from virginia, florida and texas which are supporting our local teams. Governor signed an order yesterday for curfew, so we have a curfew from 6 00 in the afternoon until 6 00 in the morning. That shall help us. Mr. Secretary, we talked about the number of shelters that were opened on puerto rico before the storm, Something Like 500. Theyre supposed to be shortterm storm shelters. Is the reality now, based on whats been left in this storms path, that those are going to have to become longerterm homeless shelters . It might be a longer term. We have costal communities have you had 80 of those homes that are not standing anymore. So we need to were going to be rebuilding. That takes time. So were working with fema regarding temporary shelters. We saw our schools, public schools, that have been serving as temporary shelters. Soph fema is working on supportg us. The recovery is going to be long. Mr. Secretary, people need essentials. Food, water, basics. Everybody is without power. When can stuff expect to get there, and how will you let people know where to find that stuff . Weve got a system to distribute all those kinds of goods. We have a barge coming in from fema that was diverted because our port closed. Its coming tomorrow with 4. 6 million liters of bottled water, generators from 1 megawatt to 800 kilowatts for those that need a home generator for lifesupport systems. So supplies are coming in. Because we are a nation that is by sea because we are an island, its only by sea. That gives us a logistic challenge, as well. Yes, of course. And so many challenges ahead of you.

We are back now. 7 41. A frightening incident at a baseball game. It is raising new concerns over fan safety, and willie is here with that story. Good morning. You could hear a pin drop yesterday at Yankee Stadium after a young girl was hit by a foul ball, eventually rushed to a hospital. This morning, it is spurring new calls for Major League Baseball to make major changes at all of its ballparks. The crack of the bat. Look out. Oh, my goodness. Followed by the gasp of the crowd. Baseball fans at Yankee Stadium quickly coming to the aid of a young girl in the stands, struck by a hardhit foul ball. Little too graphic for us to show you. It was a a line drive, hit in the side of the head. Blood all over the place. The tense moments leaving many players on the field visibly shaken, especially todd frazier, the yankees third baseman who hit the ball. Frazier taking a knee with tears in his eyes until medical personnel carried the girl away. Not on a stretcher or gurney, this is a good sign. We got a report she was okay. Obviously, you could see the concern on everyone in the ballpark. The players, the umpires, the fans. It is disturbing when it happens, and it is hard for a player when it happens. Earlier this season at Yankee Stadium, a broken bat hit a boy, leaving him bloodied. Two months later, a foul ball hit and injured a man. Wednesdays incident was the last straw for some, who say incidents like this are far too common. It renewed calls for more protective netting at ballparks around the country. I dont care about the view of a fan or what. Its all about safety. I still have a knot in my stomach. In 2015, Major League Baseball urged teams to extend netting 70 feet in each direction from home plate to the beginning of the dugouts. The yankees complied. Some teams, like the new york mets, went further, extending their netting halfway into the outfield. There has been a continuous Forward Movement in terms of increased netting in stadiums around the leagues. I expect that process will continue this off season. You have to be paying attention to the game, and you never know whats going to be coming at you from any direction. Any precautions to take to avoid accidents, im all about. Meanwhile, some critics argue increased netting will cob instru obstruct the view from the expensive seats. Thats not stopping players like frazier, trying to ensure this doesnt happen again. Overnight, frazier tweeting, today was tough, watching that little girl. Ill be thinking about her every day. Guys, one yankee after another, players across Major League Baseball, after the incident yesterday, this was a 2yearold girl, little toddler watching the game. Her grandparents said, it is time to put the netting up. By the way, it is something the yankees had been talking about before the incident. You bet itll happen now. When you sit in the seats in the area, there are signs that say, be alert. Youre in a foul ball area. But it happens so quickly. Yeah. Whether youre alert or not, it is almost impossible to stop it. The truth is, if you have good seats and you want a foul ball, youll still get it. The pop flies go over the net. You fight protect yourself from Something Like what happened yesterday. Willie, thank you so much. Lets head over to dylan in the orange room. Hey, dylan. Good morning.

Everybody loves halloween, right . Some of us more than others. True, actually. What age should you stop trick or treating . This is an issue that will divide the nation. Dylan, what do you have over there . I still want to go trick or treating. A canadian city is cracking down on halloween with a controversial bylaw, banning trick or treating for kids over 16. Anyone disobeying the rule could face up to a 200 fine. It is a relaxed version of the mandate last year. Trick or treating was capped at the age of 14. Lets look at the internet, shall we, and see what people have to say about this. Michelle says, if they make the effort to dress up and are polite, im happy to give treats, regardless of age. Deonne said, another example of society having children grow up too fast. Id rather my child stay a kid and enjoy being a kid. This michelle says, by 16, youre old enough to have already been working, so get a job and get your own candy. Get off my lawn, too. Yeah. We asked online, should there be an age limit for trick or treating. 66 say yes. 34 say no. In addition to the age limit, the citys bylaw sets a curfew, saying all trick or treating must be finished by 8 00 p. M. Strict up there. You had the key.

Looking forward to fergie tomorrow. Lets start with your news at 8 00. Hurricane maria. Heres a live look. Were about to show you the powerful storm that is hammering the Dominican Republic at this hour. The enormous destruction in puerto rico is becoming too apparent. Gabe gutierrez is in san juan for us. Gabe, good morning. Reporter good morning. It is difficult to get around san juan. Part of the reason for that, massive power outages. Virtually the entire island is without power. And power lines are down throughout this area. Streets are impassable. Many of them are flooded. This morning, were just starting to see the extent of the damage as the sun comes up. This building torn apart. The siding crushing this car. As you mentioned, savannah, maria picking up steam again. Reintensifying into a category 3 storm as it lashes the Dominican Republic. It came on shore in puerto rico here as a category 4 hurricane, the first since 1932. Trees were toppled. Cars overturned. The question right now is how many people are trapped and need to be rescued in the water . Water rescue teams from the island, as well as from the u. S. Mainland, on the move. The governor has imposed overnight curfew here in puerto rico. Telecommunication systems are down. It is difficult to understand the full scope of this damage. Savannah . Gabe, thank you. In mexico, rescuers have not given up hope of finding survivors in the ruins of buildings that were leveled by tuesdays earthquake. Nbcs Miguel Almaguer is at one of the most active sites. A grade school in mexico city. Miguel, how is it going there . Reporter matt, good morning. Theyre asking us to whisper. Search teams are actually trying to find a 12yearold girl named freida inside the school behind me. Theyre trying to listen for her voice. It is a search and rescue to save the youngest lives. Their faces tell the story. Shock, panic and grief. Parents desperately waiting for news. Are their children still alive . This father telling us, we turned the corner. We saw the school was coming down. It was desperation and panic. Search teams worked through the night, tearing through concrete to reach children still buried in their classrooms. Theres a little girl. She says her name is freida, and there are two more children near her. These tiny school bags hanging neatly in a row. A chilling reminder of the most innocent victims. These rescues have to be carried out with extreme precision. Theyre listening for any sounds. Possibly tapping. Thats what led them to previous rescues. Tuesdays powerful 7. 1 quake rattled across mexicos capital. 38 buildings completely destroyed. Thousands trapped beneath the shower of falling rubble. At dozens of sites all over the city, neighbors, strangers, rushing to help each other. But for so many, the pain is endless. Just like this sea of debris. Gloria hernandez says, ive been here since tuesday, and i still know nothing. She clutches a photo of her son, ivan, now buried under six floors of rubble. Im needing for the government to help, she says. There is nothing else i can do. So many have stories of survival. Luis carlos was in that Elementary School that dozens of his classmates could not escape. In 30 seconds, my school was down. I dont even know how i saved myself. My best friend, his little sister, is dead. This morning, there are no answers. A city brought to its knees and still struggling to get back on its feet. The rescue like the one underway for that 12yearold girl, freida, will likely continue for several days. First responders say they will not leave this area until everyone has been recovered. Back to you guys. Miguel almaguer in mexico city. Thank you very much. We move to washington now and the president urging republican senators to get behind the latest effort to repeal and replace obamacare. On wednesday, the president called the measure by republican senators Lindsey Graham and bill cassidy a great bill. He said republicans have 47 or 48 of the 50 votes they need to pass it. The measure allows states to loosen rules on covering preexisting conditions. It eliminates the socalled individual mandate and penalties on most americans who do not have Health Insurance. Republican leader Mitch Mcconnell is making plans to bring this to a vote by the end of next week. All right. Lets brighten things up with hodas morning boost.

She was an 80s pop star with hits like physical. Over the past several years, shes quietly been fighting Breast Cancer for a second time. She recently talked about that for the first time with natalie, who joins us now. Good morning. Morning, guys. Like so many, Olivia Newtonjohn is a childhood idol of mine. I got to spend a few days at in her hometown of melbourne, australia. Olivia is looking and feeling great. She turns 69 next week. Hard to believe. Shes back on tour and in the recording studio. Shes even working on a new book about her life. Olivia refuses to let anything, not even cancer, slow her down. How personal is this place to you . Oh, extremely. For Olivia Newtonjohn, the cancer wellness and Research Center that bares her name is more important than ever. The last 15 years, olivia has made this her lifes work. Its taking on new meaning with news of the reoccurrence of her own Breast Cancer in may. Olivia, you look amazing. You are radiant. How are you feeling . I feel really good, thank you. I really do. Im doing well. Just four months ago, she got the shocking news that after 25 years in remission, her Breast Cancer had returned. This time, metastasizing to her lower back. What was your first indication . I thought i had sciatica. Again, it was painful to walk. I thought it was that. You were still performing. I was still performing, yup. I would grit my teeth and take a couple of aspirin and go on. When the doctor said the cancer is back and it had metastasized, i mean, what went through your mind in that moment . I guess it was a little surprising. I never would have associated it. In my mind, it was over. Id finished with it. What is the prognosis when you do have this Breast Cancer . I dont read into prognosis and statistics because it can be depressing. Im not going to be one of those statistics. Im going to be fine. Ill probably deal with this in my life as an ongoing thing. I think you can live with cancer like you can live with other things, if you take care of yourself. After a course of photon radiation combined with natural remedies,herbal supplements and meditation, she has answered prayers, along with her husband and daughter, chloe. Hes totally confident that im fine and im going to last a long time. When she was treated the first time, newtonjohn felt the need for more than traditional medical treatment. On her own, she supplemented chemo therapy with mind and body wellness. She believes it is a winning combination, and now shes sharing it with other patients here at her Wellness Center. Offering massage, meditation, yo yoga, art and Music Therapy to patients and their families on the road to recovery. Without the experience, i wouldnt have the desire or passion to help people going through it, and the compassion to understand what it is like when youre going through cancer. So its been an amazing journey. Having it happen again, i thought to myself, ive done it before. I got through this before, and i can do it again. Are you scared at all . No. Im good at denial. Good. Its a good thing to have. No, im not really. I mean, of course, you have fear. Thats only natural. But, you know, my positive outlook is a decision. Id be lying if i didnt say i have dark moments and negative moments. Im human. But on a general scale, i tend to see the glass as half full. Positivity even in the most difficult moments. As rekrenly as a month ago, she was in crippling pain and had difficulty walking. She credits her use of medical cannabis for getting her back on her feet. What are some of the misconceptions about Medicinal Marijuana . People have visions from the 60s of people sitting around and getting stoned. Its not about that. This plant is a healing plant. We need to change the vision of what it is. Because it helped me greatly, and it helped with pain and inflammation. Now, shes back to helping others. Raising money to keep the Wellness Center open, Funding Research for Clinical Trials and break through Cancer Treatment and spending time here, connecting with patients on a whole new level. What has cancer taught you about yourself . Im stronger than i thought i was. Even though you have a team around you and people are helping you, it really, in the end, is up to you. Believe you can do it and go through it. So it made me stronger. You call yourself a cancer thriver. You dont like the word survivor. Yes. Why thriver . Survivor sounds like somebody clinging on to a lifeboat to me. A thriver is somebody off the boat and on land. Choosing to see the light, inspiring others to do the same. Olivia has Something Else to celebrate. Next year marks the 40th anniversary of grease. She still has the famous leather pants. She plans to auction them off, bringing things full circle. The money will be donated back to her cancer and Wellness Center. So good to see her doing so well. She is an inspiration. Yes. Natalie, thank you so much. Lets turn now to al. Whats going on . All right. Lets get a little check and see whats going on out there with the latest on maria. Weve got the 8 00 in from the National Hurricane center. Still a category 3 storm. About 190 miles southeast of grand turk island. 115mileperhour winds. Northwest at 9 miles per hour. Dominican republic, 4 to 6 foot storm surge. Tons of rain. 75mileperhour winds.

All eyes on the adorable little royal and the send off. Heres something new were learning. Prince george probably doesnt have a best friend at school. Why . Because the school where Prince George goes, like a lot of other schools, does not encourage best friends. They want students of that age to be friendly with everyone in the class. What . So they dont encourage kids of that age to develop what they would call best friendships. How do you stop that . A friend is a friend. That was the reason i brought this up. How do you stop that . I dont know. I think it is you have to invite all the kids to the parties. I like that. You cant ban best friends but include everyone. Every child is going to gravitate to another child. If you go up and say, who is that . Theyre probably going to say, thats my best friend savannah. At this age, everyone is their best friend. My daughter changes her best friends every day. Dont tell her friends that. Everyone has to get a valentine on valentines day. I like that. You do . I didnt get a valentine that often in school. Didnt it hurt you . I didnt either.

Learning about billy jean was, you know shes an absolute icon. Now we know her as this hero for equality and lgbtq rights. At 29, when she was number one in the world and did this battle of the sexes, she was also struggling with a lot of things internally in her personal life. The story was fascinating. You know, we stand on her shoulders. It was really a huge honor to get to try and attempt to play her. It is a great and meaty role. Theres so much to tackle. The first time you looked in your mirror, you saw yourself as billy jean. It was a transformation. It look a while. It wasnt an immediate looking in the mirror. It was a lot of learning tennis, weightlifting, things i had really never done. But the team of people around me that were supporting me through that were unbelievable. Theres no way i would have been able to do it without at least a dozen people helping me on a daily basis. To get billy jeans physique, i heard you had to be a gym rat. Yeah. Were you doing p90x and protein shakes . I didnt do the protein shakes. My trainer bulked me up more than i thought would be possible. I was deadlifting and sled pulling and, yeah, it was really it got addictive. What about the tennis . I know there are some doubles, but you do play some tennis in this. I mean, it was it was that was another major learning curve. I had a really amazing coach, and he got me it became kind of choreography. Learning all of her specific her specific serve, backhand, learning on a wooden racket. Did you watch her matches . Constantly. Her interviews and everything. I mean, yeah, it was full steeping in billy jean. Youre like, billy jean, im a creepy stalker now. I am a complete stalker of you. It is my job. I think i read that you actually played some tennis with her, that she was yeah. Lobbing balls a you. Having met her now, because she was on the show yesterday, was she like a drill sergeant . Was she working on your or was she nice . Shes a great coach, that she immediately gets the gauge of the people shes around and asks a lot of questions and keyed in on, all right, you can dance. That means you know footwork. Now run. Shed throw the ball at my face, and id move. Starting with her doing that with me, it was shes the best. She is. Are you 28 or 29 now . Ill be 29 in a couple weeks. Almost 29. You won the oscar this year. You are said to be one of the highest paid actresses in hollywood. You actually are a nice and normal person. How do you keep your head on straight . I mean, to an extent i keep my head on straight. Youre like, no, im insufferable. Im on the verge of a breakdown. No. Its i have my mom, my family, my friends are all they could care less if this was happening or that was happening. They treat me the same, make fun of me, and i love it. Its hard not to, you know, just be around great people and they change it all. Part of it is youre an arizona girl like me. Arizona girls. You know, arizona girls. Its a certain breed. It really is. Thats another segment. Emma stone, thank you so much. Thank you so much. Battle of the sexes hits theaters tomorrow. They can it out.

The man behind washingtons biggest mystery and how mark felt kept his skecret for more than 30 years. We are back with the morning we saw found out the true identiiden identity of deep throat. It was a big deal here on the show and everywhere else. Liam neeson is here. His movie is called mark felt the man who brought down the white house. Do you remember that morning . Were you fascinated by that episode in our nations history . I believe i was in london shooting batman begins. Do i remember it . No, i dont. I dont. I have to i have to say, what movie was i doing that year . That year was very busy. Where was i shooting. See if you agree with this, if i was to walk down fifth avenue, walk up to someone with a camera and say, tell me what deep throat was, they would say, oh, it is watergate, follow the money. If i were to walk down fifth avenue and say, who was mark felt . I dont think most people would know. Is that fair . I think its fair. Who was he . He was an fbi man, joined in the 40s, became a nazi hunter. He was with the fbi for 30 years. Died as an fbi man. Watergate happened, which was a burglary. Five men broke into the watergate democratic offices. Mark felt, eventually, leaked information to the Washington Post. Do you think he felt anonymously. Do you think he felt the need to do that out of because of politics or patriotism . I think it was a bit of both, matt. Complicated reasons, i think. When j. Edgar hoover died in 72, mark felt was the number two guy, so he thought he would get that position at the fbi. He was overlooked. President nixon wanted one of his guys in there. He got this guy, patrick gray, nothing to do with the fbi. In fact, was a submarine commander. I think felt and a lot of the fbi agents at the time were offended by that. In addition to some career frustrations, he had a lot going on at home. He was dealing with. Not like all the president s men, which is a ticktock, Chronological Order great movie, too. Yeah. This looks at watergate through the eyes of mark felt, this one guy. Yes. Can i ask you about Something Else . Yeah. So your name came up in the office yesterday. Really . In a good way . This idea that youre going to give up action movies. What . Did not go over well. Whats the reason for it . That was i was promoting the film in toronto last week. Somebody asked me, you know, what action movies, and i was in one of the moods. I said, come on, guys. Im 65. So its not true . 60 bleak 5. Are you still going to do action movies . I know you can. When i was in the gym this morning, i thought, i have two more years left. Ill tell you, we did an unscientific poll in the office among men and women. 100 , anonymous, you are still a severe badass. You can still pull these off. Maybe. A producer whose name i wont mention, pete bream, he immediately went to his computer and googled that famous scene from taken. Ill start which one is that . Ill start it. I want you to finish it in your best badass, right . This is about ransom, i can tell you, i dont have any money. What i do have is a particular set of skills acquired over a very long career. A very long period of time. Sorry. If you let my daughter go now, thatll be the end of it. But if you dont, by god, i will come after you and i will smack you so hard. No, i will find you and i will smack you really hard. Its a breakfast show. Taken Poetic License with a great scene.

The kids are going to touch all over the place. Wash your hands. You have to make it fun. Two ways. First, tell them it takes 20 seconds to really wash your hands with soap and water. Thats about the amount of time it takes to sing row, row, row your boat or happy birthday twice. Get a jingle in their minds. Make it a cool song. Hum through it as they wash their hands. Or get alcohol sanitizer. It does matter how much they sleep. This time of year, the kids arent sleeping well, stressed out. The ability to sleep a good eight hours, which is what most kids need, maybe more, strengthens their immune system. Parents, too. You can have my apple, sheinelle. Go see your next teacher. Here is a farmers market. Other than donuts, one of my favorite, we have Great Produce in the fall. The fall in general, unlike other seasons when youre stuck with only root vegetables or stuff beginning to sprout, you have every you want to eat in the fall. Not just pumpkins. All the colors vegetables and fruits of the rainbow. You may ask yourself, why do you have to have different colors at all . Yes. They protect themselves from the suns oxidation with the nutrients in the vegetables and fruits. Wow. If you get them into your body, you get the same protection. Mix it up a bit. Theres a seasonal food guide, an app thats free. Theyll tell you in your area of the country, what are the seasonal fruits and vegetables ripe for you to get, so you can save money. I took broccoli because it is in season in this part of the country. The key thing to remember is when you boil vegetables, you kill off the nutrients you want. I dont love raw broccoli. Steam them and grill them up a little bit. This is an example. See if you like these. Four minutes, we steamed the broccoli. I like it that way. To go one level past it, in a pan, put olive oil for the healthy fats, mix it with the broccoli for three, four minutes more. Grill it up. Crisp. Garlic. Really good. Its not a donut, but its good. You can also go with your family outdoors. Highfive. I take my kids apple picking. Do i need sanitizer now . Go sit with sheinelle. Thats the apple picking. Oh, wow. You can do it. That is a fun activity to do with kids. Ill lead you over to the hamburger station. We just went apple picking. Did you enjoy it . Yes. Then sunday was football sunday and i want to eat stuff, junk. Its so good. How do you avoid it . For our friends, have a little bit. Just kidding. This is the problem. Looks good. Want a bit . Yeah. Not getting it either. These look good. Taste delicious. Theyre bad for your inside. You feel sluggish and cant keep score after a while. What you want is bright colored, tasty, crunchy stuff. Thats what i made. These are examples. These chick peas, grill them at 400 degrees for 15 minutes. Add cumin, any spice you want. For the crunch factor. It is colorful. Put the vegetables there. The beautiful thing is, thats guacamole. Just guacamole . Not made the way everyone makes it. Crunch up the avocado separately. Take a little bit of whatever youre going to put in, onions, olive oil, whatever. Let it marinade a bit, cure. Okay. Then mix them together. Thats how it stays fresh looking like that. You get the crunch its not brown. Happy . You want some . The chips are delicious. Im kidding. Ill confiscate these in case. Al is busy in the yard. Help him out. The fall is a great time to get outside. In a way, its easier to get a little exercise. Especially this time of year in this part of the country. You can rake leaves. Have the kids mess it up, dont be so persnickety about it. Outdoors, it helps with nearsightedness. It makes you a little sharper. You begin to remember faster. The other thing about outdoor activity, you live longer. Nice thing when you love someone like al roker, you live a long time. Want to ride away . Biking, especially in the fall, is a great time. Its cooler, a little crisper. Its not as warm and humid. You look good in a helmet, i wonder . You atd hom home, think about t and post on als social site, whether you think he looks good in a helmet. Ill face you to sheinelle. Uhoh. Dont forget, tune into the dr.

This week, weve been sharing our favorite moments from our program. Today, i shared mine. Sheinelle, this must rank among your favorites. I hung out with shonda rhimes, the force behind some of the most popular shows on television today, from grays atat at anato anatomy to scandal. I had so much to talk about but so little time. Shonda rhimes is at the top of her game. The awardwinning producer, writer and director created some of tvs most fearless female characters. Youre being stupid about this. I am many things. Stupid is not one of them. Olivia pope, or in all the roles, they have changed our lives. When i walk into an interview and im feeling a little selfconscious, i think, okay, what would olivia pope do . We say, girl, you better act like olivia pope. Or look at you, dressing like olivia pope. Thats what we do. Its changed our culture. I hope you feel that way. Youre seeing somebody who feels like women that you know. 100 . More amplified on television. Versus, shes a madeup woman. When you close your eyes at night, do you have, like, characters all over the place . I feel li i feel like i wouldnt be able to sleep. I live in one show at a time. What are we going to do with the end of the story . Ill wake up with the answer. When you write it, you dont know the end . Oh, my god, no. You didnt say, vince and olivia will be married . No. Like what i do there . Im not going to say anything on that. You are going to be my first lady. Do you have like something where you want them together like the rest of us or no . Im not going to comment. Although shondas lips were sealed, i couldnt resist showing her my best olivia pope impression from when tony goldwyn came on our show. Press play. I cant stop. I wont. Im not a fantasy. If you want me, earn me. Until then, we are done. Until then, we are done. Well done. Can i tell you, this was a highlight . Earlier this week, shonda launched shondaland. Com, a lifetile wlif lifestyle website with written and video content. Why start a project like that . There are interesting, smart, funny women of all ages. Men, too. They want to read smart articles. I want them to feel inspired, i want them to laugh, get a sense of selfsomething that gets them activated or outraged. She also teamed up for real beauty productions, which features real womens stories about being your most confident se self. Conversations i have with my daughters about, you know, having confidence and being who you are. Ask a woman to tell you shes beautiful. I dont care who they are. Beyonce doesnt want to tell you shes beautiful. It is amazing. Women should all feel comfortable saying theyre beautiful. Because, guess what, they are. Just when you thought one woman couldnt do it all, shonda signed a multiyear production deal with netflix, giving her even more creative freedom. I want to be creative. I can do comedy, drama, short form, long form, i can do movies, i can do documentaries, specials. I can do whatever. Thats exciting to me. Like, the possibilities feel endless. How are you doing it . To constantly create and do new things. Then being a mom and being present. For me being a mom is hugely important, and its more who i am than what i do. I try really hard to give myself that, allow myself to know im going to mess up the way any mother would mess up. Every person watching is juggling, right . A lot of people have kids. Were searching for perfection and trying to be better. Perfection is overrated. Perfection is overrated. Being there and being present is much more perfect than trying to actually be perfect. Oh, wow. I have to tell you, i was excited to talk to shonda. After it was over you think . I know. After it was over, it was even better than i could have imagined. Your face talking to her, you were so inspired. Because shes so zen and centered and admits its not always that way, but shes really learned over the years how to get to that place. She says yes to playing with she wrote the book the year of yes. When any kids asked her to play, it was 10 or 15 minutes, but she always said yes, and it changed her life.

R red, played by james spader, next to me, is Elizabeth Keens father. Theyre picking up the pieces so he can return to taking down criminal underworld blast listers one at a time. The blacklist has value because it is based on the best possible intelligence. Information that was not available yesterday and will be obsolete tomorrow. The criminal underworld is not static, harold. It consists of constantly shifting alliances and leadership, which can only be discerned by a few key players. I was one of those players. With your help, i intend to be one again. Because like deep fried butter, i am unhealthy. Yet, irresistible. James spader, good morning. Welcome back. Thank you. So i was admitting to you earlier, when i first started watching this, my husband and i watched it together, binge watched it, i had a sneaking suspicion that you were liz keens father. You werent alone, you know. For the rest of your fans, it was kind of gratifying. Shes so proud of herself. She judged it correctly. Bring us up to date. Hes not really hes not really picking up the pieces of his empire. Hes sort of laying around a lot, which i can understand. Of gets go s goaded into it. Then he meets a couple hes having fun. Driving a nice car. Youre still in production or postproduction on the first episode. I watched the first scene, the opening scene, and you look like youre having a blast. Yeah. Theres car chase, all kinds of it looks like youre having fun. Yes, i yes, i did have fun shooting that episode. Sometimes red is having more fun than im having, but, no, not just the first episode, really the season started out that way. Everybody working on the show, the writers, we all had discussions. Itd be nice to have some breathing room. Things have been dire for a little bit. Certainly, the end of last season was pretty dire. It was crisis point. So it was nice to start out the season that way. Its continuing. I mean, im leaving here and headed down to the miniature golf course. Just for fun . In real life . No, no, to film. I was like not to give you spoilers but thats not a spoiler. Red may show up on a miniature golf course. Anyway when you put on the fedora five years ago, did you know how successful this show would be . Not when i put on the fedora. When you put on the other hat. When i read the script, i thought, this is great. Really, the thing i think is just the level of your curiosity, you know. Thats ultimately you know, in a rather chaotic and unpre k unpredictable business, if theres one thing, if it piques your curiosity, it might pique others. It did that. I knew less at the end of the pilot, when i was reading the script. I knew less at the end of it than i did at the beginning. Awesome. I thought, okay, the possibility for surprise and twists and turns and everything are sort of limitless on the show. Well ask your question . You have to ask it. Whats my question . Do they need a weatherman . He wants to close with that. He likes to close with that. So i cant say yes or no. Just to leave it in my memory for all time. Just in case. Need a weatherman guy, a Climate Change thing happening. Going to the golf course. No one is going to buy the evil weatherman, al. Miniature golf, too. Maybe we should get in the car and head down there, al. Im with you. Looking for the premiere of the blacklist premiere, next wednesday, september 27th, 8 00 7 00 on nbc.

Kids never had it so easy. It was the photo scene around the world. Capturing the moment when 27yearold jeff bauman was carried from the sidelines of the 2013 Boston Marathon. You may remember, jeff was at the marathon to cheer on his thenexgirlfriend erin hurley, when the bombing occurred at the finish line. Four and a half years later, jeffs story is hitting the big screen in stronger. Tatiana plus muslany plays erin he doesnt show up for anything, then he shows up. Rips your heart. Tatia tatiana, good morning. Morning. Nice to have you here. I have a special place in my heart for boston, so just seeing anything about this movie just it hits home. So you play erin hurley, reallife character. How much did you work with her to get into the role, or do you try to make it your own . I mean, erin was awesome. She was always really open to answering my questions and kind of hanging out and talking about, you know, life and her perspective on things. But john,ho wrote the script, hed sat with the family and been with them about a year and a half, researching and really getting the dynamics down and making sure the characters were, in essence, you know, true. So there was a lot to go on just in that. Then, you know, working opposite jake, theres a wealth of knowledge, in getting to work the dynamic with him. When youre trying to build your character, i mean, shes a runner. Were you a runner before this role . Not remotely. I would run down the block and have an asthma attack. So this was something i started doing when as soon as i got the part. I ran every morning and was, like like, training to see if i could get up to the point where i could run a marathon. Never did. Never got near it. Youre still doing it . Yeah. I definitely like i semienjoy it now. I find a little bit of peace, peace of mind there. Therapeutic. Yeah. Youre known for a variety of accents and youre good at it. Whats the hardest one, in your opinion, to do . Did you have to practice your boston accent . Oh, yeah. We had an amazing dialect coach who helped me and jake and miranda. His name is tim monic. Hes a surgeon. Hes so good. How do they do that, you say a sentence and hed say, no, say it like this. Have you seen my fair lady . Basically that. He Eliza Doolittled me. No, its about the voice of the character. Its about the intention. Its about how they communicate. You know, the way in which they talk. Jake always talks about jeff doing everything through love. The way he speaks is all through love. I thought it was a beautiful way to put it. Tim is definitely helpful in that. This movie gets to the truth, really, of this relationship, of what happened, but also this relationship. Was it hard to play this character during times . Yeah. I mean, its a responsibility. Youre playing people who are around and who you can talk to. So there is a massive responsibility there. But what was so good about the script and the dynamic was that it was very relatable, regardless of what had been going on outside of it. Within them, they were on and off again, kind of in this push and pull. This deep love but also, you know, kind of being pulled apart. That was just something i really related to as a young woman, yeah. Were out of time, you know. I just want to say, your multiple character work in orphan black, outstanding. I cant wait to see it. Ive heard good things about it. Im downloading it now. Tatiana, thank you so much. Stronger hits theaters tomorrow. Were back in a moment. First, this is today on nbc. What do you have coming up .
