has to say about a potential recession i couldn't believe my eyes i was slipping in people's blood it was carnage it was chaos one of the darkest days in american history front and center in the first in a series of hearings the january 6 committee presenting its findings to the american people with emotional testimony from a capitol police officer describing the riot as a scene of war former president trump's inner circle including his daughter testifying under oath and now the question of what's next as we await the next hearing coming monday news for summer travelers the united states now lifting travel testing requirements for all international travelers coming into the u.s how this will impact your upcoming vacation talking with a tv legend the star of barry discusses the next season of the hit hbo show and shares why it just might be the highlight of his storied acting career greatest joy in your career i would have to say the work i'm doing now this season of barry barry

filming laundry every one day and i had this impression to call people and let her know that i had been thinking about this and i would like to offer to be with serga for these embryos good evening i'm phil lipof in for lindsay davis thanks so much for streaming with us we are tracking the fallout from that first january 6th hearing but we do need to begin tonight with your money and the skyrocketing inflation that is showing no signs of letting up we learned today inflation rose again last month to a 40-year high the consumer price index is up 8.6 in may compared to a year ago and a driving factor behind that surge high food and energy prices the price of gas up nearly 50 percent since last year the average price of a gallon of gas is now basically five dollars a gallon nearly half of the country is over that mark as well and the cost of groceries has surged 12 percent in the last year the single largest year increase since 1979. president biden continues to insist inflation is his top priority and acknowledged prices are not coming down as quickly as anticipated and he once again blamed vladimir putin so when can we expect to see some relief chief national correspondent matt gutman leads us off tonight tonight that new report from the government showing inflation is only accelerating everything is going up and step out paychecks your food bill's up 100 bucks with prices up 8.6 percent in may higher than last month a new 40-year high american families spending 346 dollars a month more than they were last year for the same goods it's getting harder and harder gas prices up nearly 50 percent in the last year groceries up 12 it's the largest spike in the cost for staples like eggs meat and bread since 1979 if this keeps up how long does your lifestyle change in any way i mean it's already changed in that i don't do as many leisure activities i'm not driving as much i'm not spending money maybe on going out to eat and with polls showing more than 60 percent of americans disapprove of his handling of the economy i understand americans are anxious and the anxious is a good reason president biden looking for a silver lining in a speech at the port of los angeles today inflation outside of energy and food what the economists call core inflation moderated the last two months we needed to come down much more quickly treasury secretary janet yellen who admitted she was wrong to downplay inflation fears last year this week asked about the chances of a recession there's nothing to suggest an inflation and that if there are recessions in the works matt gutman joins us now matt we heard what janet yellen was saying there at the end of your story what are economists saying the chances are of a recession pretty high at this point phil we'll know a lot more after the fed meets next week they're very likely given the inflation numbers we just saw to raise those key interest rates for the third time this year higher interest rates typically being putting the brakes on the economy which is why analysts like mark zandy and others with whom i've been speaking are saying there's at least a 50-50 percent chance of a recession at some point over the next two years phil all right matt gutman thank and that you news rattling investors sending stocks into a tailspin the dow lost 880 points in its 10th down week in the last 11 fueling those fears of a recession now to that first public prime time hearing on the insurrection the house committee laying out its case that january 6 was quote the culmination of an attempted coup and that former president trump was at the center of it the american people hearing videotaped testimony from people in the president's inner circle abc's chief washington correspondent john carl has our report the committee relied on some of those closest to donald trump to make its case his once loyal attorney general who told investigators trump's claims of a stolen election were bunk in that context i made it clear i did not agree with the idea of saying the election was stolen and putting out this stuff which i told the president and the president's own daughter and senior adviser i respect attorney general barr so i accepted what he said was saying hours after the hearing trump put out a statement saying his daughter quote had long since checked out and was only trying to be respectful to bill barr in a dramatic 12-minute video the committee presented the horror of that day using previously unseen surveillance video to show every possible angle of the attack as well as video shot by documentary filmmaker nick quested who was embedded with the proud boys in the weeks leading up to january 6th on that morning he sensed something was up as he saw a group of some 200 proud boys go to the capitol instead of to the president's rally outside the white house they were starting to walk down the mile easterly direction towards the capitol there was a large contingent more than i had expected and i was confused to a certain extent why we were walking away from the president's speech because that's what i felt we were there to cover the committee heard from caroline edwards the first capitol police officer injured in the attack i was slipping in people's blood you know i was catching people as they fell you know i was it was carnage it was chaos the top republican on the committee liz cheney says they will establish trump's direct responsibility for that carnage in one piece of never before seen video of the attack a rioter is shown reading trump's tweet criticizing his vice president even as the capital was breached and how it turned to the crowd against mike pence my kids didn't have the courage to do what should have been done to protect our country and our constitution giving states a chance to certify a corrected set of facts not the fraudulent or inaccurate ones which they were asked to previously certify the u.s demands the

[Applause] [Music] revealing what she said they've learned about what trump really thought about those hang mike pence chance you will hear testimony that quote the president did not really want to put anything out calling off the riot or asking his supporters to leave you will hear that president trump was yelling and quote really angry at advisers who told him he needed to be doing something more and aware of the rioters chance to hang mike pence the president responded with this sentiment quote maybe our supporters have the right idea mike pence quote deserves it after the hearing trump denied he said that but listen to what he told me last year in an interview for my book just two months after he left the white house were you worried about him during that siege were you worried about no i thought he was well protected and i had heard that he was in good shape no because i had heard it was in very good shape but but no you heard those chants that was terrible he was you know the he could have well the people were very angry they're saying because it's it's common sense it's common sense even in that answer to you john carl joins us now john he he starts by saying no he was okay and at the end of the uh the answer he's talking about how angry people are at him that hearing last night was really the beginning how many more of these hearings are scheduled in the coming weeks the committee plans six more hearings each one of them uh phil will have a specific theme and the committee says new information and ultimately information that ties donald trump to the events leading up to january 6th then to january 6th itself next week for instance you will see a a hearing entirely on the pressure campaign on mike pence that will feature testimony from some of his top aides the big question of course is whether or not it will break through and most importantly whether it will break through to people who have come to believe donald trump's lies about the election uh but also his lies about january 6th itself all right a lot more to come john carl thank you thank you joining us now for more context and analysis is constitutional law professor for cardoza law school deborah perlstein deborah thanks so much for being here pleasure to be here first off anyone who watched last night would have an opinion on on what happened what were your thoughts on the hearing last night do you feel it was compelling enough to make any kind of of uh leeway so i think it depends on which audience you're asking about to the extent that the committee is aiming to speak directly to the attorney general from the department of justice it began to lay out a remarkably clear and specific case that there might be criminal liability for the president here a lot of the evidence that they introduced went to the question of what the president knew what the president's intention was whether his purpose was corrupt or not the evidence suggesting that the president knew the election was lost he knew his claims were false goes to the question of what his purpose was and that's an essential element of proving any criminal offense to the extent the audience here are other members of congress i think they've begun to make the case right there are important ongoing elements of election subversion efforts that the committee is worried about there are elements of a trial here there are witnesses questions being asked but it's not a trial so what happens if congress does prove any sort of corrupt intent or conspiracy to defraud the united states uh what happens next they go to the justice department what what is their job here so all congress has here with respect to criminal charges is the power to persuade congress has no power to conduct any trials it has no power to bring any prosecutions the only power it has with respect to criminal liability is to try to urge or put pressure on the department of justice to the extent it can to pursue criminal prosecution of its own ultimately that decision is up to the attorney general following this and i'm sure you have as well you know people have gone to prison they've been charged uh in a similar way similar evidence laid out is there a different bar for evidence here when you're going after the president of the united states which it seems like from from the onset of last night's hearing they did um is there a different bar because he's former president so the requirements for making out a criminal charge or the same whether the defendant is the former president or whether the defendant is somebody off the street the challenge the challenges here are a couple one is the need to prove intent the president's the former president's state of mind um and while you can do that through different kinds of indirect evidence that's a hard bar to pass in any case no matter who the defendant is i know you focus on fact you focus on the law from a constitutional perspective how big a hit do you think it is for our democracy that something like january 6th has become so political so from my own point of view right studying not only u.s constitutional democracy but constitutional democracies around the world what we see in the united states including most disturbingly on january 6th are the kinds of events we worry about acutely when we look at foreign governments and worry about whether the country is sliding away from democracy and into some other form of government um that's when i watched the events of january 6th unfold when i watched the politicization surrounding those events today that's what i worry about most that we no longer have a common perception of how constitutional democracy works how it's supposed to work and when we have crossed an indisputably not only illegal um but politically unacceptable line right and those who study how democracies end that's usually one of the ways one of the the red flags so of course everybody's going to be paying attention to that i'm wondering what you're going to be paying attention to as these hearings move forward particularly the next hearing on monday so i think the committee made clear that it is going to address and going to describe a multi-prompt conspiracy there were efforts to interfere with the outcome of the election at the federal level at the state level through state legislatures and election administrators and through a public disinformation campaign that the committee suggested last night is itself responsible for the violence my expectation is that they'll start with the federal level the efforts uh to get the department of justice the efforts by the president to get the department of justice um to interfere with its uh its own investigation into uh election fraud the efforts to get mike pence the vice president to take action on january 6 that the former president knew to be unlawful and i expect we'll hear from former department of justice officials members of the former vice president staff uh who can help shed direct light on what the former president's role was in those efforts constitutional law professor deborah pelston thank you so much for taking the time and your insight tonight thank you and a quick note for you abc news will carry the committee's second public hearing live attack on the capitol the investigation will air on monday 10 a.m eastern now to the investigation in yuvaldi in a newspaper interview the school district police chief defending himself saying that during the response to the mass shooting he didn't see himself as an on-scene commander but as the massacre unfolded he did call for tactical gear and acknowledges that he was standing by in the hallways for more than an hour so how does this account line up with what we've already heard here's abc's maria vera real in texas tonight embattled school district police chief pete aredondo defending his actions during the massacre at robb elementary that left 21 people dead guy with a rifle the chief telling the texas tribune despite what state officials say he did not see himself as the incident commander on site and assumed another official had taken control claiming i didn't issue any orders but he does acknowledge using his cell phone to call for tactical gear a sniper and keys to get inside the locked classroom saying he told officers to break windows to evacuate students oh the kids they're getting the kids out after officers were grazed with bullets chief ardondo and others retreated into the hallway for more than an hour while officials say gunfire could be heard four more times teacher arnold forreyas who was laying on the floor shot multiple times telling abc news the gunman started shooting again right after a child called out for help one of the students from the next door classroom um will say an officer we're in here we're in here and then uh but they had already left and then um he got up from from my behind my desk and he walked over there and he's over there again as for those 911 calls from the classroom telling the tribune he was not aware of them because he left his radio behind believing it would slow him down but students like mia sadio were still alive and begging for help what did you tell anyone i told her that we need help and to sit in the police in our classroom and arredondo seemed aware that police needed to move faster an official telling abc news he was overheard that day saying people are going to ask why we're taking so long there is no excuse for their actions and i will never forget them the new york times also reported teacher eva mirales called her husband a police officer who was outside the school telling him she was dying that information reaching other officers 15 minutes into the rampage eva died on the way to the hospital and today was laid to rest absolutely heartbreaking maria villarreal joins us now maria you're hearing some new information about a preliminary assessment by state investigators you know phil abc's investigative team has been all over this they've been able to confirm right now that preliminary assessments do show that the decision to delay police officers from going inside that classroom was so they could wait for tactical gear to show up on scene and that's a decision that contradicts most active shooter protocols that have been in place for at least 20 years phil all right moravia real thank you next year major news for international travel sources telling abc news the white house will lift the requirement that travelers test negative for covid before boarding a plane to the u.s the

airline's welcoming the move just as the summer travel season kicks into high gear here's abc's transportation correspondent gio benitez just as the nation prepares for record-breaking summer travel tonight a major change for those flying into the country sources telling abc news the biden administration will end the requirement for a negative covenant test before entering the united states starting sunday morning just after midnight anyone would be able to fly into the u.s without that negative test the decision comes as the u.s is averaging nearly 110 000 new cases a day back up to one of its highest points since february more than 4 100 are hospitalized with covet each day but with higher vaccination rates and less severe cases the airline industry has lobbied to lift the requirement that has been in place for the last 17 months tonight the major u.s airlines applauding the decision united saying in a statement this is another important step not just for air travel but also for all the tourism jobs that international travel supports jetblue's president telling us this will almost certainly boost summer travel a lot of people didn't want to travel internationally because of the testing requirement this provides them with peace of mind so that they know when they're traveling they can make it home and gio benitez joins us now geo i'm curious does the cdc plan on reassessing this decision as covet infections and variants continue to come up well phil that is what we're told that the cdc would reassess its decision in some 90 days and we're also told by the way that non-us citizens they're still going to need to provide proof of vaccination before flying into the united states phil gio benitez thank you now to the severe storms slamming the gulf coast

state could actually help save the bees and in turn preserve our planet bees have been declared fish in california you heard that correctly let's explain by the numbers four species of bumble bees are now protected under the golden state's endangered species law an appeals court ruled this week under the 1970 california endangered species law but bees are now legally considered fish in the state section 45 of california's fish and game code defines fish as wild fish mollusks crustacean amphibians or invertebrates so a judge has ruled since insects are invertebrates bees can be protected so what does this all mean bees pollinate three out of four crops that produce fruits and seeds for human consumption three out of four simply put no bees would decimate the global economy the un estimates bees contribute 217 billion dollars to the global economy california accounts for 20 of all pesticides used in the u.s

overuse kills bees so the new protection since california means farmers will need to watch their pesticide use at least around the areas where bees pollinate the department of agriculture estimates the bee population has declined from 6 million in the 40s to 2.5 million in 2021 we still have a lot more to get to here on prime the desperate search for the missing journalists in the amazon and meet the grandma's surrogate but first a look at our top trending stories on abcnews.com [Music] with so much at stake in our world right now we wanted to thank you for your trust and for making abc news america's number one news and thank you for making abc news live america's number one streaming news now streaming on abc news live 2020 true crime cinematic real life drama stunning the unthinkable follow the clues the hunt true crime 2020 now streaming on abc news live national parks are incredibly safe places a prime will happen my mom my wife has fallen she's in really critical condition at that time i thought it was just tragic accident there's still a lot of questions we need to ask there were small things that didn't totally add up this is two lives for harold that have died now i was shocked something's not right [Music] admit it these days what you need to know seems to change just about every day what is it that you really want to know need to know to help you not just get through your day but to make the most of it feel smarter feel better feel happier well how about a third hour of good morning america gma 3 what you need to know now streaming on abc news live it's all about you [Music] i know what happened and i'm not guilty why the fascination with criminal trials figure out what's really out there she revealed she had murdered his family i know in my heart they did this it's the time of suspicion the ending's really tough you don't know whether truth is going to be difficult to find unless you try to find it [Music] america's number one news abc news watched most trusted and streaming live to you anytime anywhere and free this is abc news live america's number one streaming news free to you 24 7.

on season three our lindsay davis sat down with the former happy days star who calls barry the highlight of his storied career i want to start with the fawns yes you have talked about how you put the character on and you sowed it to your being yes how did you ultimately extricate yourself at 11 o'clock at night or 12 o'clock at night when the filming was done i took the jacket off i put on my button-down shirt and then he was in the closet in my dressing room and i was in the car going home it was never a process but after years of doing the fawns it seems like you became so typecast yes that is true how did you ultimately move beyond that there was a concern from the beginning of my training that i did not want to be a flash in the pen that i did not want to be known and then disappear so that was a fear which is a great motivator by the way fear works miracles i thought because the fonz was so popular i was going to beat the system there is no beating the system ultimately you did will i just kept getting up and moving forward knocked over got up kept moving forward because i knew what i wanted favorite character you've ever played don't have one love them all that i'm living my dream is uh i'm a very verbal fellow i don't have the words to tell you how um happy i am let's talk about how happy you were getting the emmy i wrote this 43 years ago it's true what did that moment mean to you well you really had written it 43 years ago the part that i wrote was you can go to sleep now kids they were now 37 40 and 49. but i did write you can go to sleep now kids daddy won so let's talk about barry and the idea of playing an acting coach right and you've said before that you've had maybe 14 or so acting teachers in your life up through your time at yale right the character you play now is it a combination okay he's a combination of what is written of my imagination and bits and pieces of my teachers so we've recently learned that barry right killed jean's lifelong love yes how did that change the dynamic in those two characters at the end of uh of season two i find out that it's barry who has ripped my heart apart so what do i do the umbrella of this third season is can people change and i think that there is an undertow of revenge i'm trying desperately to be a better person but it knows that you know that barry has done this and now when you're playing the character do you come in and you really bring yourself into do you define every character is already in you and then it is your imagination to take what the author says what people say about you in the script what the director says like a doe you know and then you all of a sudden have a pizza of a character how did your son max who's now a director help you land this current roll in barry because he literally directed my audition i brought home the script i said would you look at it i sat at my desk he looked he stood over my shoulder and literally yelled at me i improvised he said respect the writer uh he said you know there's an exclamation point you can get a little more angry so when i went in i had a handle on the material you've had these really seminal moments right landing the role of the fawns when you were 27 yes then landing barry at 72.

now 76 do you feel like you're really kind of reinventing yourself i have reinvented myself many times writing children's books that was a time filler i didn't know what to do and nor was i being hired around 2001 after i did a broadway play with rest his soul john ritter so somebody said write books about your dyslexia for children i said i'm dyslexic i can't do that they said i'll introduce you to lynn oliver i said okay and we hatched hank zipster we've written 39 novels together and how does that work you know you didn't even realize until you were 31 years old i was dyslexic how do you do it you do it because you want it because there is a way to to figure it out i met a little girl 12 years old olivia olivia is dyslexic and i said to her how you learn has nothing to do with how brilliant you are i know i asked you about character but i'm going to ask it this way greatest joy in your career i would have to say the work i'm doing now this season of barry barry is a gift in the
