2
00:00:08,800 --> 00:00:12,120
Speaker 2: Fifty degrees in Boston at four o'clock. Good afternoon, I'm

3
00:00:12,119 --> 00:00:15,640
Speaker 2: Ben Parker. Here's what's happening. White House Press Secretary Caroline

4
00:00:15,680 --> 00:00:19,320
Speaker 2: Levitt gets grilled by reporters about the President's thought process

5
00:00:19,600 --> 00:00:22,799
Speaker 2: when the military operation against Iran was launched this past weekend.

6
00:00:22,880 --> 00:00:26,759
Speaker 2: Lawmakers across the political spectrum have expressed outrage over the war,

7
00:00:26,840 --> 00:00:29,240
Speaker 2: saying they don't want the US to get embroiled in

8
00:00:29,280 --> 00:00:32,680
Speaker 2: another overseas conflict. However, at the briefing today, Levitt went

9
00:00:32,880 --> 00:00:36,240
Speaker 2: over for objective. She says the President's hoping to achieve.

10
00:00:36,400 --> 00:00:40,680
Speaker 3: Did military objectives of Operation Epic Fury RS follows eliminate

11
00:00:40,760 --> 00:00:45,320
Speaker 3: Auran's ballistic missile threat, destroy their naval capability, disrupt missile

12
00:00:45,360 --> 00:00:49,080
Speaker 3: and joan production infrastructure, sever their pathway, and end their

13
00:00:49,120 --> 00:00:51,040
Speaker 3: pathway to nuclear weapons.

14
00:00:51,159 --> 00:00:54,400
Speaker 2: During the briefing, Levitt says that Spain had changed its

15
00:00:54,400 --> 00:00:57,200
Speaker 2: position and agreed to cooperate with the US military, but

16
00:00:57,240 --> 00:01:00,520
Speaker 2: the Spanish Foreign minister denied that in an interview. This

17
00:01:00,600 --> 00:01:03,000
Speaker 2: week in Washington, lawmakers are set to vote on measures

18
00:01:03,040 --> 00:01:06,160
Speaker 2: aimed at curbing the use of US military in Iran

19
00:01:06,360 --> 00:01:08,680

22
00:01:13,880 --> 00:01:15,880
Speaker 4: a different measure before the House would not go to

23
00:01:15,920 --> 00:01:19,080
Speaker 4: the President and is non binding. Speaker Mike Johnson says

24
00:01:19,120 --> 00:01:19,959
Speaker 4: neither should pass.

25
00:01:20,200 --> 00:01:22,880
Speaker 5: We know and history will record we did the right thing.

26
00:01:22,920 --> 00:01:25,440
Speaker 3: I think passage of a War Powers resolution right now

27
00:01:25,640 --> 00:01:28,160
Speaker 3: would be a terrible dangerous idea.

28
00:01:28,319 --> 00:01:31,240
Speaker 4: No administration since the War Powers Resolution was enacted over

29
00:01:31,319 --> 00:01:34,560
Speaker 4: Richard Nixon's Veto has viewed the law as constitutional, and

30
00:01:34,640 --> 00:01:37,920
Speaker 4: Congress has never successfully employed it to end a military conflict.

34
00:01:50,800 --> 00:01:54,240

Speaker 5: Attorney General Peter Narona says church leaders cooperated and handing

41
00:02:11,040 --> 00:02:14,200
Speaker 5: over records of the abuse, but denied key interviews and

42
00:02:14,280 --> 00:02:17,920
Speaker 5: limited the year's long investigation. The multi year probe found

43
00:02:17,919 --> 00:02:21,160
Speaker 5: that the diocese maintained a secret archive to hide details

44
00:02:21,200 --> 00:02:24,320
Speaker 5: about more victims. Only twenty six percent of the clergy

45
00:02:24,400 --> 00:02:28,079
Speaker 5: identified in the report ever faced charges, and just fourteen

46
00:02:28,120 --> 00:02:31,560
Speaker 5: were convicted. Narona says an unknown number of victims likely

47
00:02:31,600 --> 00:02:34,760

Speaker 2: Walls and Keith Ellison failed to stop widespread fraud and

52
00:02:48,760 --> 00:02:53,160
Speaker 2: retaliated against whistleblowers. The federal government has temporarily frozen federal

53

56
00:03:05,639 --> 00:03:08,640
Speaker 2: We've had the warmer weather today and it's been pretty

57
00:03:08,680 --> 00:03:12,440
Speaker 2: nice into the fifties in many spots. However, things are

58
00:03:12,440 --> 00:03:14,760
Speaker 2: going to change, and we're going to get cooler over

59
00:03:14,760 --> 00:03:18,200
Speaker 2: the next several days before we get warm again over

60
00:03:18,240 --> 00:03:21,040
Speaker 2: the several days after that. There's also a winter weather

61
00:03:21,080 --> 00:03:24,720
Speaker 2: advisory that goes into effect at five o'clock tomorrow evening

62
00:03:24,880 --> 00:03:30,200
Speaker 2: until noontime on Friday. This is for many areas away

63
00:03:30,200 --> 00:03:34,040
Speaker 2: from the coast. But we've got some snow and rain

64
00:03:34,080 --> 00:03:37,400
Speaker 2: and nice and sleep coming in again for tomorrow night.

65
00:03:37,520 --> 00:03:39,440
Speaker 2: As we get through the night. Tonight, we'll be in

66
00:03:39,440 --> 00:03:41,960
Speaker 2: the low twenties and the low thirties depending on where

67
00:03:41,960 --> 00:03:45,800
Speaker 2: you are mildest downtown. Then tomorrow we cloud up. We

68
00:03:45,840 --> 00:03:47,880
Speaker 2: get some rain and drizzle in the afternoon. That's not

69
00:03:47,920 --> 00:03:50,680
Speaker 2: a big deal. It'll be forty one for the high temperature,

70
00:03:50,760 --> 00:03:52,600
Speaker 2: but then those periods of rain start to mix with

71
00:03:52,640 --> 00:03:55,400
Speaker 2: sleet and snow tomorrow night and linger into Friday morning.

72
00:03:55,680 --> 00:03:58,800
Speaker 2: Not much in the way of accumulation in the city, however,

73
00:03:58,960 --> 00:04:00,640
Speaker 2: there could be an inch or two north of one

74
00:04:00,720 --> 00:04:03,760
Speaker 2: twenty eight and some icing as possible, and slippery travels

75
00:04:03,800 --> 00:04:08,480
Speaker 2: certainly could be in play Tomorrow night and into Friday morning.

76
00:04:08,480 --> 00:04:11,880
Speaker 2: Temperatures in the low thirties for tomorrow night and then

77
00:04:11,960 --> 00:04:13,920
Speaker 2: only in the mid to upper thirties on Friday, so

78
00:04:13,960 --> 00:04:16,280
Speaker 2: not much of a warm up. Will stay cloudy and damp,

79
00:04:16,320 --> 00:04:19,800
Speaker 2: and then Saturday some drizzle to start, otherwise clouds linger.

80
00:04:19,880 --> 00:04:23,600
Speaker 2: Saturday's high we'll get into the upper forties. We may

81
00:04:23,600 --> 00:04:26,560
Speaker 2: be talking about sixty degree temperatures as we get into

82
00:04:26,560 --> 00:04:28,919
Speaker 2: the start of next week. Right now it is fifty

83
00:04:28,960 --> 00:04:31,760

00:04:31,920 --> 00:04:35,120
Speaker 2: snow bank will be disappearing under the searing eye of

87
00:04:41,320 --> 00:04:44,000
Speaker 6: Sorry to say, the winter that won't splinters with us

88
00:04:44,000 --> 00:04:44,839
Speaker 6: for a couple of days.

89
00:04:44,880 --> 00:04:45,120

Speaker 6: snow on the ground soon.

97
00:05:00,120 --> 00:05:02,159

Speaker 7: at your grocery store, Yeah, if you want to fixate

99
00:05:05,080 --> 00:05:06,480
Speaker 7: on that. It's going to take a while. If you're

100

Speaker 7: looking at what actually matters your lawn or your sidewalk,
