3
00:00:12,960 --> 00:00:18,880
Speaker 2: Good morning. I'm Nicole Davis and here's what's happening. Former

4
00:00:18,920 --> 00:00:21,520
Speaker 2: FBI director James Comy is set to stand trial on

5
00:00:21,680 --> 00:00:25,319
Speaker 2: January fifth on charges he lied to Congress. Who's just

6
00:00:25,440 --> 00:00:28,760
Speaker 2: in court last hour for his arraignment in Virginia. Let's

7
00:00:28,760 --> 00:00:30,920
Speaker 2: get more in the CBS News special report.

8
00:00:31,000 --> 00:00:33,680
Speaker 3: Former FBI director James Comby just appeared at his arrangnment

9
00:00:33,720 --> 00:00:36,800
Speaker 3: in Virginia on charges of lying to Congress and obstructing

10
00:00:36,840 --> 00:00:40,920
Speaker 3: a congressional investigation, part of President Trump's retribution campaign against

11
00:00:40,960 --> 00:00:44,400
Speaker 3: his political opponents. CBS's Scott MacFarlane is at the courthouse.

12
00:00:44,520 --> 00:00:47,200
Speaker 4: James Calemy has just pleaded not guilty here at Federal

13
00:00:47,200 --> 00:00:49,720
Speaker 4: Court and Alexandria. They are going to put this case

14
00:00:49,760 --> 00:00:52,840
Speaker 4: immediately on a slow track. Call me and the prosecutors

15
00:00:52,880 --> 00:00:55,400
Speaker 4: here are going to waive speedy trial rights. There are

16
00:00:55,440 --> 00:00:58,080
Speaker 4: a number of complications here, including the fact that classified

17
00:00:58,080 --> 00:01:01,360
Speaker 4: information might be involved. We have it not guilty plea

18
00:01:01,440 --> 00:01:02,160
Speaker 4: as expected.

19
00:01:02,440 --> 00:01:05,280
Speaker 3: The charges stem from comy sentate testimony in twenty twenty,

20
00:01:05,319 --> 00:01:07,360
Speaker 3: when he denied he had told an associate to serve

21
00:01:07,360 --> 00:01:10,559
Speaker 3: as an anonymous source to the media. President Trump fired

22
00:01:10,560 --> 00:01:14,000
Speaker 3: Comy in twenty seventeen after Comy ordered the investigation into

23
00:01:14,000 --> 00:01:17,240
Speaker 3: the Trump campaign's connections with Russia, a probe that Trump

24
00:01:17,319 --> 00:01:18,160
Speaker 3: called a witch hunt.

25
00:01:18,200 --> 00:01:20,120
Speaker 5: I think he's a crooked guy. He's a dirty cap.

26
00:01:20,520 --> 00:01:23,360
Speaker 3: Kmy faces up to five years in prison if convicted again.

27
00:01:23,360 --> 00:01:26,560
Speaker 3: He has pleaded not guilty. This morning in Virginia, CBS

30
00:01:31,600 --> 00:01:35,200
Speaker 2: arrested near Boston Common last night during a pro Palestinian

31
00:01:35,240 --> 00:01:38,600
Speaker 2: protest are set to be arraigned today. Police say things

32
00:01:38,600 --> 00:01:42,000
Speaker 2: got violent when protesters moved off the Common and blocked

33
00:01:42,000 --> 00:01:45,039
Speaker 2: part of Tremont Street, attacking a police car, set off

34
00:01:45,080 --> 00:01:47,199
Speaker 2: explosives and injured four officers.

35
00:01:47,200 --> 00:01:49,760
Speaker 6: He went really from zero to one hundred here as

36
00:01:49,800 --> 00:01:53,000
Speaker 6: these protesters were marking two years since the war began,

37
00:01:53,440 --> 00:01:55,320
Speaker 6: and when they sat in the middle of the road,

38
00:01:55,400 --> 00:01:58,720
Speaker 6: police had to move in and things really grew violent quickly.

39
00:01:58,880 --> 00:02:02,280
Speaker 2: That is Brandon true with CBS News Boston. Charges for

40
00:02:02,280 --> 00:02:06,960
Speaker 2: those arrested include disorderly conduct, resisting arrest and disturbing the peace.

41
00:02:07,320 --> 00:02:10,280
Speaker 2: Boston Mayor Michelle wou says the city condemns anybody who

42
00:02:10,360 --> 00:02:12,920
Speaker 2: comes into the city to attack police. She says she

43
00:02:13,000 --> 00:02:15,400
Speaker 2: is grateful to Boston Police as well for supporting the

44
00:02:15,440 --> 00:02:18,880
Speaker 2: right to peacefully protest. And we're learning more about one

45
00:02:18,919 --> 00:02:22,440
Speaker 2: of the green energy projects recently canceled by the Energy Department.

46
00:02:22,800 --> 00:02:25,400
Speaker 2: This is based on the cape in Falmouth. The New

47
00:02:25,400 --> 00:02:28,079
Speaker 2: Bedford Light reports the FEDS back in twenty twenty one

48
00:02:28,160 --> 00:02:31,200
Speaker 2: during the Biden administration, granted three and a half million

49
00:02:31,240 --> 00:02:34,360
Speaker 2: dollars to the Kuna Messett Farm Foundation. Now crews have

50
00:02:34,400 --> 00:02:36,959
Speaker 2: been using that money to serve a popular commercial fish

51
00:02:37,040 --> 00:02:40,040
Speaker 2: species to see how they're impacted by wind farms. From

52
00:02:40,080 --> 00:02:43,800
Speaker 2: construction to completion, The New Bedford Light says companies already

53
00:02:43,800 --> 00:02:47,120
Speaker 2: do their own private data collection. This, though, is a public,

54
00:02:47,200 --> 00:02:51,560
Speaker 2: open source project employing local fishermen. Lise Seeman, the lead

55
00:02:51,639 --> 00:02:54,519
Speaker 2: investigator for the project, says she doesn't understand the logic

56
00:02:54,560 --> 00:02:57,079
Speaker 2: to cancel it. She says the project would have answered

57
00:02:57,080 --> 00:02:59,920
Speaker 2: a lot of questions that the fishing industry has about

58
00:02:59,919 --> 00:03:02,720
Speaker 2: the the impact of wind power along the New England coast.

59
00:03:03,080 --> 00:03:05,520
Speaker 2: It is not that windy out there, but it's definitely

60
00:03:05,880 --> 00:03:08,840
Speaker 2: rather it's very rainy out there, not that windy, which

61
00:03:08,840 --> 00:03:11,840
Speaker 2: is certainly a plus. We are seeing heavier rain come

62
00:03:11,919 --> 00:03:15,360
Speaker 2: down in parts of the South coast right now in Wareham.

63
00:03:15,400 --> 00:03:18,120
Speaker 2: You're seeing some stormy weather out there along in Bourne

64
00:03:18,320 --> 00:03:21,080
Speaker 2: as well. Then we're also seeing the heaviest of the

65
00:03:21,160 --> 00:03:23,960
Speaker 2: rain coming in through parts of the Outer Cape. We

66
00:03:24,040 --> 00:03:26,919
Speaker 2: also have some more rain to the west getting out

67
00:03:26,919 --> 00:03:30,839
Speaker 2: there through Worcester and parts of Fitchburg and Springfield, and

68
00:03:31,040 --> 00:03:33,799
Speaker 2: all this will move out by later on this afternoon.

69
00:03:34,240 --> 00:03:37,480
Speaker 2: Then we've got temperatures falling as we see temperatures getting

70
00:03:37,520 --> 00:03:40,640
Speaker 2: down towards sixty as we make our way toward tonight.

71
00:03:41,040 --> 00:03:43,400
Speaker 2: For this evening, turning out clear, low in the mid

72
00:03:43,440 --> 00:03:46,600
Speaker 2: forties in Boston, low forties inland, but low fifties on

73
00:03:46,640 --> 00:03:49,680
Speaker 2: the Cape and islands. For tomorrow, plenty of sunshine, high

74
00:03:49,720 --> 00:03:53,040
Speaker 2: only fifty eight, and then on Friday, of frosty start

75
00:03:53,160 --> 00:03:56,960
Speaker 2: in many inland suburbs, mostly sunny otherwise and a high

76
00:03:57,000 --> 00:04:00,000
Speaker 2: near sixty two. Right now, taking a look at our temperatures,

77
00:04:00,000 --> 00:04:03,920
Speaker 2: sixty one, some showers in Denvers fifty seven, raining pretty

78
00:04:03,920 --> 00:04:07,560
Speaker 2: hard coming through Lancaster and Sterling south of Boston on

79
00:04:07,720 --> 00:04:11,160
Speaker 2: the Cape, it is sixty seven degrees in Sandwich and

80
00:04:11,320 --> 00:04:14,120
Speaker 2: in Boston at eleven oh six it is raining and

81
00:04:14,200 --> 00:04:17,559
Speaker 2: sixty six. Day eight of the government shutdown is leading

82
00:04:17,600 --> 00:04:20,440
Speaker 2: to delays at some airports around the country. But what's

83
00:04:20,480 --> 00:04:23,640
Speaker 2: going on over at Logan Airport. Wbz's Jim McKay checks

84
00:04:23,640 --> 00:04:23,960
Speaker 2: it out.

85
00:04:24,000 --> 00:04:26,120
Speaker 5: You're at Terminal A. I ran it to George.

86
00:04:26,160 --> 00:04:29,080
Speaker 1: He's flying to Indianapolis, one of the airports that's dealing

87
00:04:29,279 --> 00:04:31,240
Speaker 1: with air traffic staffing shortages.

88
00:04:31,440 --> 00:04:33,200
Speaker 5: I'm very concerned about it.

89
00:04:33,320 --> 00:04:35,720
Speaker 1: George has good reason to be concerned because he's got

90
00:04:35,800 --> 00:04:36,560
Speaker 1: plenty of cargo.

91
00:04:36,880 --> 00:04:39,240
Speaker 6: Because you know, traveling with the dog and my wife,

92
00:04:39,240 --> 00:04:41,080
Speaker 6: it was a big concern.

93
00:04:41,200 --> 00:04:44,320
Speaker 1: Maassport continues to provide updates about where things stand, and

94
00:04:44,360 --> 00:04:47,720
Speaker 1: Logan is operating very solid at the moment compared.

95
00:04:47,360 --> 00:04:49,719
Speaker 5: To what other airports are dealing with around the country.

96
00:04:50,000 --> 00:04:53,440
Speaker 1: But as this shutdown continues and people aren't getting paychecks,

97
00:04:53,680 --> 00:04:55,760
Speaker 1: eventually it will be a problem.

98
00:04:55,400 --> 00:04:57,680
Speaker 5: If your work and you should get paid for George's wife,

99
00:04:57,680 --> 00:04:59,960
Speaker 5: Denise and their dog Lenny their home.

100
00:05:00,279 --> 00:05:02,800
Speaker 1: This can come to a quick conclusion and get everyone

101
00:05:02,880 --> 00:05:05,000
Speaker 1: back to work with their proper paychecks, so.

102
00:05:05,040 --> 00:05:07,360
Speaker 7: We do travel quite a bit, so hopefully this thing

103
00:05:07,400 --> 00:05:08,600
Speaker 7: gets over pretty quick.

104
00:05:08,680 --> 00:05:12,839
Speaker 1: From Terminala at Logan Jim mcka WVZ Boston's news radio.

105
00:05:12,920 --> 00:05:15,280
Speaker 2: Now, President Trump has said there is no guaranteed back

106
00:05:15,360 --> 00:05:18,680
Speaker 2: pay for federal workers when the shutdown is over. Labor

107
00:05:18,760 --> 00:05:21,680
Speaker 2: unions representing those workers are calling on Congress to put

108
00:05:21,680 --> 00:05:23,880
Speaker 2: a stop to the shutdown before things get worse.

109
00:05:23,960 --> 00:05:27,920
Speaker 7: Jacqueline Simon at the American Federation of Government Employees, representing

110
00:05:27,960 --> 00:05:29,960
Speaker 7: some eight hundred thousand workers.

111
00:05:29,560 --> 00:05:32,839
Speaker 2: Says, unfortunately, we have to take him seriously when he

112
00:05:32,960 --> 00:05:34,360
Speaker 2: makes these kinds of threats.

113
00:05:34,600 --> 00:05:37,520
Speaker 7: The president's warning comes despite a law he signed after

114
00:05:37,560 --> 00:05:41,080
Speaker 7: the twenty nineteen shutdown ensuring that federal workers receive back

115
00:05:41,160 --> 00:05:43,560
Speaker 7: pay during a funding lapse, but Simon says.

116
00:05:43,360 --> 00:05:46,720
Speaker 2: They don't feel constrained by the language.

117
00:05:46,320 --> 00:05:49,800
