1
00:00:01,280 --> 00:00:06,520
Speaker 1: This is w b Z, Boston's news radio, redefining local news.

2
00:00:11,160 --> 00:00:14,440
Speaker 2: Thirty seven degrees in Boston, partly cloudy today, getting up

3
00:00:14,480 --> 00:00:17,000
Speaker 2: to forty five. Love the forecast coming up in just

4
00:00:17,040 --> 00:00:20,080
Speaker 2: a few minutes. It's eleven o'clock. Good morning, I'm Nicole

5
00:00:20,239 --> 00:00:22,880
Speaker 2: Davis and we're watching breaking news out of Worcester County.

6
00:00:23,280 --> 00:00:25,239
Speaker 2: We have learned a man has died after he was

7
00:00:25,239 --> 00:00:29,080
Speaker 2: shot by police yesterday in Westminster. The Western County DA's

8
00:00:29,080 --> 00:00:31,120
Speaker 2: office as police shot the man while they were trying

9
00:00:31,160 --> 00:00:33,920
Speaker 2: to serve an arrest warrant at his house. They say

10
00:00:33,920 --> 00:00:36,880
Speaker 2: the man allegedly approached them with a large knife before

11
00:00:36,920 --> 00:00:40,880
Speaker 2: this happened. No officers were injured. The officers involved are

12
00:00:40,960 --> 00:00:45,040
Speaker 2: on administrative leave. The DA's office says this is standard protocol.

13
00:00:45,080 --> 00:00:47,920
Speaker 2: So again, the man who was shot by police yesterday

14
00:00:47,960 --> 00:00:51,519
Speaker 2: in Westminster has died of his injuries. At eleven oh

15
00:00:51,600 --> 00:00:54,080
Speaker 2: one on Capitol Hill, lawmakers are still locked in a

16
00:00:54,120 --> 00:00:56,800
Speaker 2: bitter stale made over funding for the Department of Homeland

17
00:00:56,800 --> 00:01:00,320
Speaker 2: Security TSA agents have been working without pay while apartment

18
00:01:00,400 --> 00:01:03,040
Speaker 2: is essentially shut down. Many of them have called out

19
00:01:03,120 --> 00:01:06,000
Speaker 2: or resigned, which has resulted in long lines at airports

20
00:01:06,040 --> 00:01:09,480
Speaker 2: all over the country. WBZ s Drew mo'holland says Logan

21
00:01:09,520 --> 00:01:12,919
Speaker 2: Airport has been mostly spared, but flyers in other cities

22
00:01:12,959 --> 00:01:14,039
Speaker 2: have not been quite so lucky.

23
00:01:14,120 --> 00:01:17,119
Speaker 3: Yeah, flying somewhere anywhere. It's a real battle right now.

24
00:01:17,160 --> 00:01:20,399
Speaker 3: The partial government's shut down leading to TSA shortages. It

25
00:01:20,440 --> 00:01:23,319
Speaker 3: has the nation in a struggle. In many cases, people

26
00:01:23,360 --> 00:01:26,280
Speaker 3: are showing up crazy early just to be sure they

27
00:01:26,319 --> 00:01:28,880
Speaker 3: make their flight. And life in the airport terminal, well,

28
00:01:28,920 --> 00:01:30,760
Speaker 3: that's not always pleasant to service.

29
00:01:31,000 --> 00:01:31,759
Speaker 2: It was horrible.

30
00:01:31,880 --> 00:01:33,840
Speaker 4: No bathroom, Yeah, there's a bathroom down there.

31
00:01:33,880 --> 00:01:34,320
Speaker 5: No food.

32
00:01:34,600 --> 00:01:34,880
Speaker 6: Yeah.

33
00:01:34,920 --> 00:01:36,920
Speaker 3: Now, granted, the Logan lines have not been as bad

34
00:01:36,920 --> 00:01:39,520
Speaker 3: as elsewhere in the country, but as the regular flyer,

35
00:01:39,640 --> 00:01:42,039
Speaker 3: the lines aren't exactly great. They can get pretty long.

36
00:01:42,120 --> 00:01:44,479
Speaker 3: Timing is everything, But let's talk about the real bad.

37
00:01:44,520 --> 00:01:47,760
Speaker 3: Passengers at Houston's George Bush Airport had people waiting in

38
00:01:47,800 --> 00:01:50,680
Speaker 3: TSA lines for some six hours over the last day

39
00:01:50,800 --> 00:01:52,800
Speaker 3: or two, and we're hearing reports like that all over

40
00:01:52,840 --> 00:01:55,600
Speaker 3: the country. Drumahal and WBZ Boston's News Radio Now.

41
00:01:55,640 --> 00:01:58,480
Speaker 2: Democrats say they don't want to reopen Homeland Security without

42
00:01:58,480 --> 00:02:02,120
Speaker 2: putting more restrictions on ICE agents. Meantime, the President is

43
00:02:02,160 --> 00:02:04,520
Speaker 2: now calling on Republicans not to agree to any deal

44
00:02:04,600 --> 00:02:08,040
Speaker 2: until Democrats helped to pass the Save America Act, which would,

45
00:02:08,080 --> 00:02:11,440
Speaker 2: among other things, require ID checks at polling places. Here's

46
00:02:11,480 --> 00:02:14,400
Speaker 2: ABC Stephen Portnoy with more on what Republicans are thinking.

47
00:02:14,440 --> 00:02:17,359
Speaker 5: The conversation now taking place among Republicans has them talking

48
00:02:17,400 --> 00:02:21,480
Speaker 5: about funding every component of DHS except for ICE. After that,

49
00:02:21,480 --> 00:02:24,800
Speaker 5: the GOP led Congress could move to a reconciliation package

50
00:02:24,880 --> 00:02:27,760
Speaker 5: which Democrats in the Senate couldn't block by themselves, that

51
00:02:27,800 --> 00:02:30,840
Speaker 5: would fund ICE and possibly add in the voter ID

52
00:02:30,960 --> 00:02:34,360
Speaker 5: and citizenship requirements that President Trump has insisted on. Just

53
00:02:34,440 --> 00:02:37,360
Speaker 5: days ago, the President rejected this idea, but after a

54
00:02:37,400 --> 00:02:40,000
Speaker 5: White House huddle last night, Republicans came out of it

55
00:02:40,040 --> 00:02:42,200
Speaker 5: hopeful that they'd be able to move forward with the plan.

56
00:02:42,360 --> 00:02:44,920
Speaker 2: Now, new leadership is coming to Homeland Security, as the

57
00:02:44,960 --> 00:02:48,760
Speaker 2: Senate has now confirmed Senator Mark Wayne Mullen to replace

58
00:02:48,840 --> 00:02:52,320
Speaker 2: Christy Nome leading that department. As for the forecast for

59
00:02:52,360 --> 00:02:55,320
Speaker 2: the coming day, we are looking at a phenomenal afternoon.

60
00:02:55,360 --> 00:02:58,440
Speaker 2: We've got a mix of sun and clouds ahead. Chili breeze, though,

61
00:02:58,480 --> 00:03:00,920
Speaker 2: will make it feel a little bit cooler than it

62
00:03:01,000 --> 00:03:03,520
Speaker 2: actually will be. We've got a high year forty five,

63
00:03:03,800 --> 00:03:05,919
Speaker 2: but it is going to feel more like the thirties today.

64
00:03:06,280 --> 00:03:08,840
Speaker 2: For tonight, partly cloudy, a low in the mid thirties,

65
00:03:08,880 --> 00:03:11,160
Speaker 2: and then for tomorrow, we've got some sun to start,

66
00:03:11,440 --> 00:03:13,680
Speaker 2: increasing clouds in the afternoon and a high in the

67
00:03:13,720 --> 00:03:16,600
Speaker 2: low fifties. Warmer on Thursday, by the way, but with

68
00:03:16,720 --> 00:03:19,919
Speaker 2: mostly cloudy skies, so you know, get one lose another.

69
00:03:20,000 --> 00:03:22,240
Speaker 2: We'll take it breezy, and we've got a high in

70
00:03:22,280 --> 00:03:24,480
Speaker 2: the low to mid sixties, but then we cool off

71
00:03:24,520 --> 00:03:27,440
Speaker 2: on Friday with a couple of showers. Temperatures out there

72
00:03:27,520 --> 00:03:29,560
Speaker 2: right now as we take a look on the coast

73
00:03:29,680 --> 00:03:32,920
Speaker 2: in Marshfield, it's thirty seven north of Boston and Gloucester.

74
00:03:33,040 --> 00:03:35,680

Speaker 2: thirty two under mostly sunny skies in Boston right now,

76
00:03:39,520 --> 00:03:43,320
Speaker 2: mostly sunny, thirty eight degrees and it feels like twenty nine.

77
00:03:43,720 --> 00:03:45,600
Speaker 2: Now to the Middle East, where the US and Iran

78
00:03:45,640 --> 00:03:49,040
Speaker 2: are offering conflicting messages about what's coming next in the war,

79
00:03:49,480 --> 00:03:52,840
Speaker 2: President Trump insists his administration has spoken with the top

80
00:03:52,880 --> 00:03:56,400
Speaker 2: Iranian leader about ending the war. Iran is pushing back.

81
00:03:56,560 --> 00:03:59,440
Speaker 4: Ran insists that no talks with the US have taken place,

82
00:03:59,640 --> 00:04:02,800
Speaker 4: saying anything otherwise is an attempt to influence the stock

83
00:04:02,840 --> 00:04:05,760
Speaker 4: market and the price of oil. President Trump now giving

84
00:04:05,760 --> 00:04:08,040
Speaker 4: the country until Friday to make a deal to end

85
00:04:08,040 --> 00:04:10,760
Speaker 4: the war, backing off his threat to hit and obliterate
