hi, everyone. i'm zinhle essamuah. >> and i'm kate snow. "nbc news daily" starts right now. today, tuesday, april 23rd,

2024. tension in court. the judge in donald trump's hush money trial says the former president's lawyer is losing credibility as he license to argue ms over whether mr. trump violated a strict gag order. what led up to the heated exchange and what we heard from the first full day of witness testimony. chaos spreading. protests that have led to hundreds of arrests, virtual learning on the east coast is now causing concerns on the west coast. all clear? why some lawmakers want to crack down on those services that speed up your time in the airport security wait line. and investing in our future generation, i traveled to new mexico to get a firsthand look at an organization that's providing paid internships to high school students, wait until you see this real-world experience, hands-on experience making a difference in and outside the classroom. >> that one is tear-jerker. >> a little bit.

we'll start this hour with a big day in former president donald trump's first criminal trial. >> today we heard more key testimony from david pecker. >> the former publisher of the national enquirer, he allegedly helped organizer what's called catch and kill scheme to stories. >> before pecker's testimony an important hearing on trump's possible violation of to gag order, that order limits what mr. trump can say about the jury and potential witnesses the prosecution outlined ten statements trump made that they said violated the gag order. trump's attorney tried to explain them away aztecss that he's receiving. the judge warned mr. trump's attorney quote, you're losing all credibility with the court. leading us off is rehema ellis.

rehema, let's start with you on the ground today, the big moment was that clash between the judge and trump's attorney, what happened during that part of the trial? >> reporter: well, this happened early this morning, this was before the jurors came into the courtroom, they heard none of this. but this is was an exchange between the attorneys and the prosecuting attorney was making an argument about that trump should be held accountable for what they allege is a violation of the gag order and they had three instances of which he should be fined 1,000 for each violation. trump's attorney said trump hasn't violated this. the prosecuting attorney was offering examples of what they say was violations, even though trump's attorney was saying he's just retweeting what other people are saying, but it seems as though the former president added something to one of those tweets, and that came out to the

judge asking them about whether or not this is a question of him manipulating what they tweet was all about, at that point the defense attorney for trump said, i wouldn't use the word manipulating, but the judge said that your arguments about these efforts don't apply to this one and that's when he came out saying "you're losing credibility, you're losing all credibility with this court, i have to tell you." not a very good moment i'd suspect for the defense on trump's side. then when they got into what was happening in the court what they did was they established what was going on between david pecker and donald trump and michael cohen, the prosecution basically established there was a long relationship that donald trump had with david pecker and david pecker said about donald trump i would describe mr. trump as very knowledgeable, i would describe him as a very detailed

oriented and also micromanaging, looking at all aspects of whatever the issue was, clearly the prosecution was trying to set up that donald trump was involved in this catch and kill scheme that's going to be pa part of what this case is all about. >> rehema, thank you. katie, you've been inside courtrooms like this. what rehema just described where the judge admonished trump's attorney. is that going to taint the rest of this proceeding potentially? >> it absolutely cold. public admonishment by a court to an attorney can have significant implications and even though this was outside the presence of the jury it could impact the way the court views objections and any motion requests. it's highly significant and in order to avoid any severe

consequences to his own client he'll have to rebuild throughout this trial. >> how might pecker's testimony impact how this moves forward. >> the prosecution starting off with pecker's testimony is beautiful, it laid the foundation, introduced some critical witnesses, it established the relationship the longstanding relationship between trump and pecker as well as trump and cohen and the three of them working together. which is significant. it establishes the trust, then talking about the micromanagement showed that he knew every single dollar that came in and went out. >> all right, kristen beginon and rehema ellis, thank you. the most serious restrictions on tiktok are moving a step closer to becoming law. >> the gnat is in the beginning stages of voting on a massive

foreign aid package, that package includes an ultimatum for tiktok. the chinese-based parent company must sell its stake in it or face a ban in the united states. savannah, as the senate moves closer to a vote tiktok users are speaking up on capitol hill. >> reporter: not are they physically here on the hill, you probably remember when this kicked up over a month ago tiktok waged this full campaign they were asking users to call lawmakers' phones, we're still seeing that play out and users from across the country making their voices heard. they don't want this app to go away. today, i've been done here

reporting this. when i met creators here, they were flown in by tiktok to try lobby lawmakers in real life. these people paid to fly themselves here. red eyes or drove overnight nine hours from colorado, california and ohio. they're worried this ban is about to go through. take a listen. >> we built this incredible community focused around small business, mental health, on tiktok and we can't replicate that elsewhere, a ban on tiktok would destroy my business. >> tiktok has helped my family been financially secure. >> reporter: similar to what we're hearing from quite a few tiktokers here on capitol hill. >> this might pass the senate. what is tiktok saying?

>> reporter: in fact, it's likely it will. it will head to president biden's desk for signature. a statement we have from tiktok. this was after the house passed this vote over the weekend. it's unfortunate that the house of representatives is using the cover of important foreign and humanitarian assistance to once again jam through a ban bill that would trample the free speech -- but what they have said in an internal memo that i obtained yesterday they'll fight this in the court, they'll bring a legal challenge, that's anticipated and it will impact the time line of tiktok actually being banned. >> savannah sellers, thank you. if you haven't filled up your tank lately, be prepared to dig deeper into your wallets because gas prices are on the rise. >> the national average is now $3.67, up 14 cents per gallon

from a month ago. but some pumps in california are seeing more than $7 a gallon. here to help it all make sense is brian cheung. gas prices vary on where you live. what's behind this surge? >> lot of reasons why prices could be high. prices are compared to a week ago, due to a change in the blend of gas that we use, there's the winter blend, we're now transitioning now to the summer blend. car parked in a parking lot it's a different type of gas you're burning. that change is expensive to do. the refineries have to change the way they actually pump this gas out, that explains why the prices have gone up. from what we're hearing from aaa and gasbuddy, the period

between spring break and memorial day tends to coincide with slightly higher gas prices. >> maybe it dips back down. you know, there's often when there's tension in the middle east it will often cause higher gas prices just because of the unsettled nature of that, but we haven't seen that impacting yet? >> historically it's led to price spikes, but the big difference in 2024 america is the number one producing of oil around the world, and for that reason we have the ability to hedge against what we might be happening in geopolitically in other countries. because we produce so much domestically. we have to remember that it's a global index when it comes to these prices. marginal changes can come from what happens in israel and iran. time now for today's cnbc money minute. google said its office is not a place for politics. and taylor swift's record is

breaking records. google fired about 20 more employees for participating in a protest. the group said a total of over 50 workers had been fired over the issue. the firings coming off the ceo said the workplace isn't for politics. united healthgroup said it paid ransom but did not say how much they paid. the company said some files with personal information was copromized. no other data was published and no everyday that doctor's charts or full medical histories were accessed in that. and taylor swift's latest album became the most streamed across spotify. spoti if, y reported that the album was streamed 300 million

israel/hamas war are spreading today on the west coast students are demonstrating from seattle to stanford. cal poly's campus is closed through tomorrow because of protests. protesters have set tents at uc, berkeley, on the east coast classes will be hybrid for the rest of the semester at columbia. nyu in lower manhattan, 120 people there were arrested during protests at the school last night. valerie castro is outside columbia's main campus. valerie, only a few weeks left in the semester there, so what is the university doing to try to prepare for graduation and the rest of the school year? >> reporter: kate, that's the big question and we have reached out to university with those questions as you mentioned, the school semester will be hybrid for the rest of the year, but tomorrow is a day when students are supposed to come and pick up their caps and gowns in

preparation for graduation, that's still scheduled to happen, graduation is scheduled for may 15th. that's a less from a month from now. we asked the university if they have any plans to move graduation, we're still waiting to hear back. but we spoke to a senior student, about his concerns or fears over graduation. take a listen to what he had to say. >> right now, we're in a moment where everyone has to make a conscious decision about whether traditions are worth sacrificing to a greater cause. to be honest the location of commencement probably isn't that important to the people who are graduating as much as graduating is. >> reporter: again, something that the university is certainly taking into account what those plans will be come may 15th and we know that this is not just

limited to columbia university, these encampments have popped up at schools across the country places like the university of maryland, in michigan, vanderbilt university, uc, berkeley, also an encampment at the university of minnesota where some students were arrested earlier today as the result of an encampment. no expectations this will wrap up any time soon. >> valerie, thank you. now to a first in the nation bill targeting frequent flyers who avoid the usual security line at airports. . the california proposal would ban the screening company clear in operating in regular screening line. it all comes down to equity for travelers. steve patterson has been following this one for us. steve, this got our team talking. first off, remind us how does clear work and why is this service now being targeted by lawmakers. >> reporter: if you're a frequent flyer you've seen those

kiosk, a clear, with a guy clipboard trying to get you to sign up, a service $199 a year or so, you're able to scan and you get escorted to the front of the line, you skip the general security line that's the part that lawmakers are concerned about and i want to be clear about this, the lawmakers want to ban that specifically, not necessarily clear itself, they don't want to put clear out of business, in their words, they want the ban the act of being able to skip the general security line f they created their own line with an approval from the tsa they'd be fine with it. it's all about dignity and safety. some security breaches using clear. it's horrible as a passenger to wait an hour in this general security line, scan into that kiosk and skip ahead of you. >> to that end, steve, i'm

mindful that tsa precheck exists, that's run by the government, but does that make an exception to this new proposal. >> reporter: it does. again, it's an agency program, this clear would be a third party, completely different as far as systemically, again the problem that they have with people skipping the actual line which is what clear does, you literally get escorted into the front of the line. this one doesn't. >> steve, what is clear saying about all this. >> clear has said they're partnering with all of the major partnering with all of the major carriers, it brings money into auntie, you can't put that right in the dishwasher. watch me. with cascade platinum plus i have upped my dish game. i just scrape... load... and i'm done. in that dishwasher? in that dishwasher. only platinum plus is packed with more dawn to remove up to 100% of grease and food residue. get the highest standard of clean, even in your machine.

this protest. there's just three weeks left in the semester. as the campus spokesperson tells us, the, quote, commitment to free speech is unwavering. this is the main part of campus where students come and go. there's a lot of visibility here. these protesters are specifically asking uc berkeley to divest themselves from companies that build weapons that might be used by israel against the palestinian people living in the gaza strip where there's a war that's been going on for a number of months right now. it does appear the university is invested in funds that hold shares in some of those companies. here was uc berkeley's spokesperson earlier this morning. >> we heard what their plans are. there are no plans to change our investment strategies, policies or practices. >> do you sympathize with what they're asking for? >> the university has a neutral position when it comes to divisive and political issues. wefr ear an institution of higher education, not a political institution.

>> reporter: last night cal poly humboldt up north announced it was shutting down campus. pro-palestinian protesters occupied and barricaded themselves inside one of the buildings on campus on what was the first night of the jewish passover holiday. in-person classes and activities are transitions to remote where possible. the campus will be closed through tomorrow. as you can see in this statement from their website, cal poly humboldt announced it was shutting down campus last night because of what they say was, quote, a dangerous and volatile situation. on the east coast police arrested dozens of protesters at new york university after they refused to leave campus. nyu says what started as 50 people quickly through as protesters pushed through barriers. at columbia university calling for deescalation t. school says all classes at its main campus will be hybrid until the

semester ends because of the unrest. bam here at cal, we've asked a number of times for somebody with this protest to speaks to us. a man said we had to wait for a spokesperson. this man said to look at all the tents up there, that that's the message. here at cal, bob redell, nbc bay area news. what a change in just one day. you've likely noticed it's much cooler. here is meteorologist kari hall with what to expect. >> today expect more seasonable temperatures with low 70s through parts of the south bay. upper 60s through morgan hill and gilroy. as those numbers come down, a breezy wind and very pleasant afternoon. concord will see a high of 71 degrees today. about the same in fremont, mid 60s for oakland. near the coast, the low 60s for today. san francisco in the mid 60s downtown, and for the north bay, we'll see highs in the mid 60s from napa to santa rosa.

we'll see the winds picking up at times. these are the temperatures we'll see staying with us through the next several days. we're also getting ready for a fairly pleasant weekend. we'll check out that forecast coming up in about 30 minutes. >> kari, thanks. opponents of alameda district attorney pamela price are pushing for he removal, setting a date for her recall election. this is video from a rally earlier today. opponents claim price is too soft on crime. last week they gathered enough signatures for a recall election. supervisors are expected to set a date by next week. meanwhile price is staying the course. she is following through on what she believes is a mandate for restorative justice in alameda county. she said many death penalty cases may be overturned. price says prosecutors often

these surveys the important things to you as american workers and jobs and the economy is number one, that's what people are concerned about, they're also very concerned about their health care and they're concerned about immigration and the environment. >> love that. something that surprised me, sharyn, half of people would be happy running their own business, what are some of the reasons in. >> it's interesting people often assume they want more flexibility. sort their own business. actually the main reason was to pursue your passion, that's why people say they wanted to start their own business. great to be with your own boss and make your own money but overwhelming that passion is what's really driving to think they may want to start their own business. >> remote work, it was so standard during the pandemic, it scaled back since then, but how are people feeling about remote

work now. >> a mar jy jarty of the people are in the office. 28% prefer to be fully or mostly remote. >> that 82% that's that's. there's a lot of talk about how to help people young people find a career through our sponsor the chan zuckerberg initiative, i got introduced to a unique program from the new mexico not for profit future focused education, the program is providing high school students with paid internships and changing lives.

in albuquerque, new mexico, these medical assistants, interior designers, prosthetic crafters, are still in high school. it's all part of a program called x3 run by future focused education. tell me what the program is. >> a paid internship program, we partner with schools and community to create real-world learning out in the community. >> reporter: the director of social emotional learning for the program says taking kids from the school world and into the real world makes all the difference. >> when you create learning opportunities that are relevant that lights a spark. >> reporter: like the spark in this senior who spends 12 hours a week at the local hospital. >> why did you think it would be important for you? >> just getting that clinical experience, it's nothing that you can learn out of the textbook. i've learned how to triage patients. and working with providers. >> how old are you? >> 18. >> you're 18.

>> the fact that i was able to intern and go to school at the same time, it makes me feel proud. >> reporter: one of her mentors is also proud. >> it just feels very awesome. i don't see the student or intern, i see them as colleagues. >> equals? >> yes. >> reporter: he's seen his intern grow immeasurably. >> when he first started he was very nervous and excited. he's now using those tools by himself. >> in how many months? >> maybe a month and a half. >> reporter: plus doug and the x3 program have helped sam find direction. >> i feel more confident. at least knowing what i want to do. >> you can see a path. >> yes. >> i see that smile. >> the program isn't just about the work, what have you learned about yourself? >> learn how to process interactions, whether that's with a patient, another co-workers, a provider. >> learned how to be more independent.

>> reporter: and these students are getting paid. for some that allows them to stay in school, something she appreciates. >> coming out of high school my family isn't a college fund family. so for me it was challenging the idea of going to college. being able to have a paid internship and not have to work 9 to 5 while being in school makes the biggest difference. >> if you have gotten a paid internship, would you have taken a different job to help the family out? >> yes. >> reporter: now a freshman at the university of new mexico studying nursing and interning at a pulmonary lab. you're on a full ride now. would you have seen this coming >> never in a million years. it's overwhelming. >> does it make you emotional? >> yes >> what's that emotion? >> pride.

>> reporter: that pride shines through in the nearly 150 participants and 1300 graduates of the program who've learned new skills that could make meaningful change in their own lives and contribute to the new mexico economy. >> their ability to dream and believe that they belong in community and they have a place somewhere where their greatness can change. >> reporter: x3 building up the future one student and mentor at a time. students in the program also work in social work and political internships, really making change in new mexico. >> love that, kate. thank you so much. well, we've heard the phrase reduce, reuse, recycle. recycling is when we convert waste into reuseable material. but certain materials are harder to break down than others like those foam coffee cups. it's possible, though, you can help, here's foam recycling simply explained.

lot of material ends up in our landfills, some is biodegradable. plus other isn't so disposable. it's controversial. there are bans or restrictions on the sale or the distribution of the material across the country. here in new jersey, one company is reinventing how the product is recycled and reused. >> so the first step is to have a densifier. takes the foam and puts it in, it chips it up, it melts it through a warming tube and it comes out here. >> reporter: multiple companies recycle foam, foam cycle is one of them. partnering with municipalities across the country. turning polystyrene into a heavy and dense product. >> pick one up. >> let's see. that's not light.

how about how heavy is this? >> about 40 pounds. >> they chip it up into these pellets. they're able to make any kind of molding boards. >> reporter: foam cycle says they recycled over 180,000 pounds in 2021. translation, around 145,000 cubic feet diverted from a landfill. what kind of foam do you take? >> we take the packing polystyrene. not the more rubbery foam. >> reporter: it's notoriously difficult to recycle. >> styrofoam in the environment is a big concern, it's hard to recycle. those little pieces of styrofoam can get on our beaches and go into the waterways. >> do you think a material like polystyrene should be created >> it definitely has its uses. it's used in insulation. when we're just going to coffee shop, grocery store it gets to be too much. >> reporter: a sentiment echoed

nationally, in 2019, maine became the first state to ban polystyrene. >> maine now has a law banning the use of styrofoam in food and drink containers. new york state following in 2022. >> littering our streets, catch basins and neighborhood sidewalks. >> reporter: with other states and washington d.c. implementing their own bans or restrictions on the materials, still foam cycle said the need for their service will remain so as long as they need polystyrene. i hear there's somebody i have to meet. >> you have to meet our mascot. bring it to the recycling dropoff center. >> can i meet buster? >> buster come on out. >> hi, buster foam. >> what's your message to consumers who are struggling in the recycling space?

>> calm down, be serene, it's all good. be mindful. do we need that package? do we need that product? i think about its end of life. >> reporter: and that's foam recycling simply explained. you heard the word styrofoam come up in that story, it's a polystyrene foam, trademark, worth noting multiple states are considering bans in 2025. there was so much i didn't know about foam. >> they're hopinging to expand to different parts of the country. right now, you have to go to drop off that material. >> so often a package comes you don't want the styrofoam and there it is. >> please let us know. we want to hear from you. what do you want simply explained. connect with me on your favorite social media platform. coming up, clean eating, how

the make sure the food in your home is safe.

in today's daily health, we're talking about food safety. a recent review found that 20% of the foods that we eat have an unhealthy level of pesticides in

it. >> researchers say that food and drink recalls have reached a five-year high overall, and the cdc estimates 48 million americans get sick from food borne illnesses each year. if that's scaring you, we have some answers. nice to see you, doctor. why does there seem to be so many recalls. >> food is traveling further than it ever before. because it's travel something many places it's a lot harder for them to trace and eliminate the contaminants. an ingredient was added into foods that wasn't list edlisted. >> how can someone find out?

>> the fda keeps a rolling list on their website about food recalls, it's also good to read the news and keep an eye out if you shop at places that have more recalls than others. if you have eaten a food that's recalled, don't panic, watch yourself for symptoms. if you haven't opened the package don't open it -- don't smell it, investigate and look for things that are suggestive. lot of these bacteria are unable to be seen with a human eye. you can't tell that's ruined. . the other thing is to look up how to dispose of it. it should be in a sealed garbage can so no one can access it. >> what about the consumer reports review that found unhealthy levels of pesticides in 20% of our fruits and
