Official say the 56 00:02:33,639 --> 00:02:37,520 Speaker 1: man had not come forward until recently due to embarrassment, 57 00:02:37,639 --> 00:02:40,519 Speaker 1: but was convinced to launch allegations after the hip hop 58 00:02:40,639 --> 00:02:44,200 Speaker 1: legend was convicted and sentenced to four years on prostitution 59 00:02:44,320 --> 00:02:49,760 Speaker 1: related charges.

Peter King's CBS. 70 00:03:21,360 --> 00:03:24,760 Speaker 1: News experts do caution that a strain of influenza now 71 00:03:24,800 --> 00:03:28,160 Speaker 1: making the rounds overseas is new and likely not protected 72 00:03:28,560 --> 00:03:31,440 Speaker 1: by this year's shot. He begins with another great looking 73 00:03:31,480 --> 00:03:34,760 Speaker 1: sunrise here in Boston. It is a chilly thirty seven degrees. 74 00:03:34,920 --> 00:03:38,080 Speaker 1: We do have winds coming in at US around twenty 75 00:03:38,120 --> 00:03:41,119 Speaker 1: five miles per hour this morning, so it still feels 76 00:03:41,160 --> 00:03:43,720 Speaker 1: like it's in the low twenties as we get our 77 00:03:43,760 --> 00:03:46,320 Speaker 1: engines going on this Tuesday morning. Overall, this is not 78 00:03:46,320 --> 00:03:48,240 Speaker 1: going to be a bad day. The winds will not 79 00:03:48,360 --> 00:03:50,560 Speaker 1: be as strong as yesterday, but they'll still be there, 80 00:03:50,800 --> 00:03:52,600 Speaker 1: which will make the air temperature feel a heck of 81 00:03:52,640 --> 00:03:55,600 Speaker 1: a lot cooler. Today. Once again, we're below average, with 82 00:03:55,640 --> 00:03:57,920 Speaker 1: a high temperature only in the mid tow upper forties. 83 00:03:58,160 --> 00:04:01,600 Speaker 1: Overnight clear and cold, twenty and thirties again, mixture of 84 00:04:01,640 --> 00:04:04,000 Speaker 1: some sun and clouds. Tomorrow pretty much the same day 85 00:04:04,160 --> 00:04:07,160 Speaker 1: tomorrow as today, with even less wind, highs again in 86 00:04:07,200 --> 00:04:10,280 Speaker 1: the mid forties. We look for clouds mixing with sun 87 00:04:10,320 --> 00:04:12,800 Speaker 1: again on Thursday. So this pattern continues for much of 88 00:04:12,840 --> 00:04:15,600 Speaker 1: the rest of the work week. The only exception might 89 00:04:15,600 --> 00:04:18,440 Speaker 1: be Friday. On two counts, tempts will jump into the 90 00:04:18,440 --> 00:04:21,040 Speaker 1: low fifties, and there's a chance of more clouds in 91 00:04:21,120 --> 00:04:24,160 Speaker 1: the possibility of showers later in the day. Right now 92 00:04:24,279 --> 00:04:27,080 Speaker 1: in Boston, no chance of rain at sunrise in the city. 93 00:04:27,080 --> 00:04:30,880 Speaker 1: It's a gorgeous start, clear skies, cold, thirty seven here 94 00:04:30,960 --> 00:04:33,520 Speaker 1: in Boston, six oh six on this Tuesday morning, all 95 00:04:33,560 --> 00:04:36,720 Speaker 1: teed up on Capitol Hill, where the House of Representatives 96 00:04:36,760 --> 00:04:39,560 Speaker 1: is expected to vote today to release all of the 97 00:04:39,560 --> 00:04:41,839 Speaker 1: Epstein files. House is going over. The said it's going 98 00:04:41,880 --> 00:04:43,839 Speaker 1: to over, and Trump says he's going to sign it. 99 00:04:43,920 --> 00:04:46,880 Speaker 1: But we really can't be so sure that all those 100 00:04:46,920 --> 00:04:48,159 Speaker 1: documents are going to be released. 101 00:04:48,160 --> 00:04:50,160 Speaker 3: And then if the Department of Justice. 102 00:04:50,000 --> 00:04:52,120 Speaker 1: By the way, says that they're going to release all 103 00:04:52,160 --> 00:04:54,279 Speaker 1: the documents. How do we know that that's the full 104 00:04:54,800 --> 00:04:57,280 Speaker 1: trove of information. I think it's going to be. 105 00:04:57,839 --> 00:04:58,400 Speaker 3: Hard to tell. 106 00:04:58,520 --> 00:05:01,400 Speaker 1: That's ABC's Catherine fall the The President says, there's no 107 00:05:01,520 --> 00:05:05,159 Speaker 1: there there, and he's got nothing to hide. Meantime, the 108 00:05:05,160 --> 00:05:08,919 Speaker 1: President promises delivered to deliver two thousand dollars payments to 109 00:05:09,200 --> 00:05:11,919 Speaker 1: millions of American families, and he says he'll do it 110 00:05:11,960 --> 00:05:14,560 Speaker 1: by the middle of next year. The money is coming 111 00:05:14,640 --> 00:05:18,080 Speaker 1: from his global tariff policy, which the President says has 112 00:05:18,120 --> 00:05:21,039 Speaker 1: made trillions of dollars for the United States already, though 113 00:05:21,080 --> 00:05:23,880 Speaker 1: others in the administration says it's not about the money, 114 00:05:23,920 --> 00:05:27,480 Speaker 1: it's about getting American consumers to buy from American companies 115 00:05:27,520 --> 00:05:31,360 Speaker 1: again where there are no tariffs. Treasury Secretary Scott Besson 116 00:05:31,400 --> 00:05:35,000 Speaker 1: says payment to primarily low and middle income families would 117 00:05:35,120 --> 00:05:40,679 Speaker 1: need Congressional approval before being made. A Tennessee judge says 118 00:05:40,720 --> 00:05:43,919 Speaker 1: President Trump's use of the National Guard in Memphis is 119 00:05:43,960 --> 00:05:47,440 Speaker 1: against the law and orders a stop to that operation. However, 120 00:05:47,640 --> 00:05:50,560 Speaker 1: the judge will grant the White House five days to appeal. 121 00:05:50,880 --> 00:05:53,640 Speaker 1: The judge rules that deployment can only be activated on 122 00:05:53,800 --> 00:05:56,560 Speaker 1: orders of the governor and when the city is under 123 00:05:56,560 --> 00:06:00,919 Speaker 1: attack and would need state lawmaker's approval.
