THE DRAWING SHOWS THE OUTLINE OF A WOMAN'S TORSO, BREASTS, AND HIPS, WITH A MESSAGE THAT READS IN PART, WE HAVE CERTAIN THINGS IN COMMON, JEFFREY, AND LATER, ENIGMAS NEVER AGE BEFORE THE CLOSING WORDS HAPPY BIRTHDAY.

AND MAY EVERY DAY BE ANOTHER WONDERFUL SECRET. AT THE BOTTOM, A FAMILIAR SCRAWLED SIGNATURE. THE NOTE'S EXISTENCE, INITIALLY REPORTED BY THE WALL STREET JOURNAL IN JULY. THE PAPER SAYS IT WAS PART OF A BOOK COMPILED BY NOW CONVICTED. SEX TRAFFICKER GUILLAINE MAXWELL GIVEN TO EPSTEIN WHEN HE TURNED 50 IN 2003. THAT REPORT PROMPTING IMMEDIATE PUSHBACK FROM THE PRESIDENT, WHO FILED A $10 BILLION DEFAMATION LAWSUIT AGAINST THE JOURNAL. HIS LAWYERS ALLEGING NO AUTHENTIC LETTER OR DRAWING EXISTS.

I DON'T EVEN KNOW WHAT THEY'RE TALKING ABOUT NOW. SOMEBODY COULD HAVE WRITTEN A LETTER AND USED MY NAME, BUT THAT'S HAPPENED A LOT. THE PRESS SECRETARY TONIGHT ARGUING IT'S VERY CLEAR PRESIDENT TRUMP. DID NOT DRAW THIS PICTURE AND HE DID NOT SIGN IT. THE REPUBLICAN CHAIR OF THE OVERSIGHT COMMITTEE. BLASTING DEMOCRATS FOR RELEASING THE DRAWING, ACCUSING THEM OF CHERRY-PICKING DOCUMENTS AND POLITICIZING. INFORMATION RECEIVED FROM THE EPSTEIN ESTATE.

OVER THE LAST TWO WEEKENDS, THERE HAVE BEEN 14 HOMICIDES AND AT LEAST 76 PEOPLE SHOT IN. CHICAGO WITH ONE ALDERMAN TELLING US NATIONAL GUARD TROOPS WOULD FREE UP POLICE. I ABSOLUTELY SUPPORT THE TRUMP ADMINISTRATION. BRINGING IN MORE FEDERAL RESOURCES. OUR CITY NEEDS AS MUCH HELP AS WE COULD POSSIBLY GET, BUT CHICAGO'S DEMOCRATIC MAYOR IS INCREASINGLY PUSHING BACK,

WRITING THE CITY JUST EXPERIENCED RECORD LOW HOMICIDE NUMBERS, MAKING THIS THE SAFEST SUMMER SINCE THE 1960S. OUR COMMUNITIES REMAIN UNITED MORE THAN EVER AGAINST. THE ADMINISTRATION'S ATTEMPT TO UNLEASH THE MILITARY, NATIONAL GUARD, AND ROGUE. TODAY, IN A LEGAL VICTORY FOR THE PRESIDENT, A CONSERVATIVE SUPREME COURT MAJORITY LOOSENED. RESTRICTIONS ON ICE OPERATIONS IN LA, BUT IN HER DISSENT, LIBERAL JUSTICE SONIA SOTOMAYOR WRITING, WE SHOULD NOT HAVE TO LIVE IN A COUNTRY.

WHERE THE GOVERNMENT CAN SEIZE ANYONE WHO LOOKS LATINO, SPEAKS SPANISH, AND APPEARS TO WORK A LOW WAGE JOB. TONIGHT THE WHITE HOUSE INSISTING IT DOES NOT TARGET PEOPLE BASED ON RACE. IT'S A MULTITUDE OF FACTORS. TO ESTABLISH REGIONAL SUSPICION. BUT IF AN ILLEGAL ILLEGAL HAS AN MS-13 TATTOO ON HIS HEAD, THAT'S CERTAINLY WILL BE ONE OF THE FACTORS THAT WE CONSIDER. MEANWHILE, OUR NBC NEWS POLL SHOWS THE PRESIDENT'S APPROVAL RATING AT JUST 43%, 57% DISAPPROVE. TOM, GABE GUTIERREZ IS AT THE WHITE HOUSE. GABE, THANK YOU.

NOW TO THAT TERROR ATTACK AT A BUS STOP IN JERUSALEM. PALESTINIAN GUNMEN OPENING FIRE ON PEOPLE JUST WAITING FOR THE BUS. 6 ISRAELIS WERE KILLED. THE HORROR ALL CAPTURED ON VIDEO. RICHARD ENGEL IS THERE. YOU'RE WATCHING THE EXACT MOMENT OF THE ATTACK IN JERUSALEM. YOU CAN HEAR A FEW SHOTS, THEN MORE, AND THE CROWD START RUNNING AND SCREAMING. AS POLICE SAY TWO PALESTINIAN GUNMEN OPENED FIRE ON PEOPLE WAITING AT A BUS STOP.

6 ISRAELIS WERE KILLED BEFORE THE GUNMEN WERE SHOT. DEAD BY AN ISRAELI SOLDIER AND AN ARMED CIVILIAN. THIS IS THE BUS STOP WHERE THE ATTACK TOOK PLACE. THE ENTIRE AREA HAS NOW BEEN SEALED OFF BY ISRAELI SOLDIERS AND POLICE, BUT IF YOU LOOK THROUGH HERE RIGHT AT THE BUS STOP ITSELF, YOU SEE THE WHITE BODY BAGS WHERE. MEDICAL WORKERS ARE COLLECTING THE REMAINS. PRIME MINISTER NETANYAHU VISITED THE SCENE AND. SAID THE TERROR ATTACK STRENGTHENED ISRAEL'S DETERMINATION.

ALREADY DESTROYED 50 HIGH-RISE BUILDINGS IN 2 DAYS, SAYING THEY ISSUED EVACUATION ORDERS FOR THE BUILDINGS. FIRST AND CLAIMING THEY WERE USED BY HAMAS. NETANYAHU TOLD PALESTINIANS TO GET OUT OF THE CITY. NOW, BUT MANY REMAIN.

CONVINCED THAT THEY'LL BE KILLED OR MADE HOMELESS OR STARVED WHEREVER THEY GO. SO WHY BOTHER? 12 YEAR OLD JANA MANSOOR WAS LIVING IN A TENT NEXT TO ONE OF THE HIGH RISES.

SANCTIONS ON RUSSIA OVER ITS ONGOING ATTACKS. I'M NOT HAPPY ABOUT. UKRAINE'S PRESIDENT ZELENSKY CALLING THE ATTACKS MURDER WHEN. REAL DIPLOMACY COULD HAVE BEGUN LONG AGO. UKRAINE TARGETING RUSSIA WITH ITS OWN DRONES, BUT PRESIDENT PUTIN UNWAVERING, SAYING HE WILL MEET ZELENSKY, BUT ONLY IN THE HERO CITY OF MOSCOW. HIS AUDIENCE OF RUSSIAN OFFICIALS LOUDLY APPLAUDING. AND TONIGHT, TOM, DIPLOMATS HAVE TRAVELED FROM HERE IN EUROPE TO WASHINGTON.

PASS ON THE TRAIN LATER APPEARING TO HELP HER. INVESTIGATORS SAY THE SUSPECT IS 30 FOUR-YEAR-OLD DECARLOS BROWN JR. WHO'S NOW CHARGED WITH MURDER. ACCORDING TO AN OBITUARY, ZARITSKA WAS UKRAINIAN. A FUND RAISING PAGE SAYS SHE RECENTLY CAME TO THE US.

SEEKING SAFETY FROM THE WAR AND HOPING FOR A NEW BEGINNING. THE AUGUST 22ND ATTACK SENDING A CHILL THROUGH THE QUEEN CITY. I WAS SHOCKED TO HEAR THAT. REALLY, BECAUSE I JUST WROTE IT LIKE HOURS BEFORE. TODAY PRESIDENT TRUMP WEIGHING IN ON THE ATTACK. THEY'RE EVIL PEOPLE. WE HAVE TO BE ABLE TO. HANDLE THAT. IF WE DON'T HANDLE THAT, WE DON'T HAVE A COUNTRY. THE PRESIDENT BLAMING DEMOCRATS FOR ZARKA'S DEATH, POINTING TO THE SUSPECT'S CRIMINAL HISTORY. POLICE AND COURT RECORDS SHOW BROWN WAS ARRESTED MORE THAN A DOZEN TIMES,

INCLUDING FOR ASSAULT. NORTH CAROLINA'S. GOVERNOR SAYS THE STATE NEEDS MORE POLICE OFFICERS AND IS. CALLING ON LAWMAKERS TO PASS LEGISLATION WHICH THE GOVERNOR BELIEVES WILL. STOP THESE HORRIFIC CRIMES. AND HOLD VIOLENT CRIMINALS ACCOUNTABLE. TOM, RIGHT, JESSE KIRS FOR US. NOW TO AN INCREDIBLE RESCUE IN TEXAS. A DEPUTY, YOU SEE HIM THERE DANGLING FROM AN OVERPASS AND. THE HEROES WHO STEPPED IN TO SAVE HIS LIFE. PRISCILLA THOMPSON WITH THE INTENSE VIDEO. HEART STOPPING RESCUE.

DEPUTIES WERE OUTSIDE THEIR PARKED PATROL CARS. HELPING A DRIVER WHEN A SEMI TRUCK CRASHED INTO ONE OF THEIR CARS, PINNING THE DEPUTIES AGAINST THE GUARD RAIL. WITNESSES AT A NEARBY GAS STATION RAN OVER,

OFFICIALS SAY, APPEARING TO USE ROPE AND LADDERS TO HOIST THE DEPUTY TO SAFETY. THE SHERIFF'S DEPARTMENT WRITING IN A STATEMENT. THANK YOU LUBBOCK CITIZENS FOR WATCHING OVER OUR DEPUTIES. ALL THOSE INVOLVED ARE EXPECTED TO RECOVER, OFFICIALS SAY, AS TONIGHT THE CRASH REMAINS UNDER INVESTIGATION. PRISCILLA THOMPSON, NBC NEWS. INCREDIBLE THEY WERE ABLE TO RESCUE HIM. ALL RIGHT, TONIGHT WE ARE HEARING FROM A GROWING NUMBER OF AMERICANS WHO SAY.

THEY WANT THE COVID VACCINE BUT ARE HAVING TROUBLE GETTING IT. ONE WOMAN ON MEDICARE TELLING OUR STEVE PATTERSON SHE HAD TO PAY MORE THAN $200. FOR A SHOT SHE EXPECTED TO BE FREE. 74 YEAR OLD ALISON INGLE IS DILIGENT ABOUT KEEPING UP WITH HER COVID VACCINATIONS. NOW SHE'S FRUSTRATED. IT IS JUST. A SERIES OF OBSTACLES BEING PUT IN FRONT OF ME. AND OTHER PEOPLE TO TRY TO GET THE NEW COVID VACCINE. ENGLE HAS MEDICARE, AND WHEN SHE WENT TO GET A COVID SHOT A FEW WEEKS AGO,

SHE EXPECTED IT TO BE FREE, BUT INSTEAD, WHAT EXACTLY DID THEY SAY TO YOU WHEN THEY WHEN THEY HANDED YOU THIS? THEY SAID IT WASN'T APPROVED BY. MEDICARE. SO THIS IS THE PHARMACY WHERE ALISON RECEIVED. THAT VACCINE AFTER PAYING OUT OF POCKET, A PLACE THAT WOULD NORMALLY ALLOW ANYONE TO GET THE SHOT. NOW THE RULES FOR ELIGIBILITY ARE STRICT, BLOCKING ANYONE BELOW 65 OR WITHOUT AN UNDERLYING MEDICAL CONDITION. BUT EVEN THEN IT'S A CONFUSING PATCHWORK. AT A HEATED SENATE HEARING LAST WEEK, SENATOR ELIZABETH WARREN GRILLED HHS SECRETARY. ROBERT F.

KENNEDY JR. OVER ACCESS. I'M NOT TAKING THEM AWAY FROM PEOPLE, SENATOR. IT TAKES IT AWAY IF YOU CAN'T GET IT FROM YOUR PHARMACIST. ADDING TO THE CONFUSION, A KEY CDC PANEL HASN'T SIGNED OFF ON THE NEW VACCINE YET. UNTIL THEY DO, CVS SAYS PEOPLE IN 10 STATES WILL NEED PRESCRIPTIONS TO GET THE SHOT. AS FOR MEDICARE PATIENTS, CVS SAYS SOME STORES ARE UPDATING THEIR SYSTEMS AND MAY NOT BE SET UP YET FOR THE NEW. VACCINE. THE MORE BARRIERS WE THROW UP, THE MORE CONFUSION WE INTRODUCE IN THE SYSTEM.

THERE ARE GOING TO BE MORE PEOPLE WHO ARE GOING TO END UP NOT GETTING THE VACCINE, AND THEY'RE GOING TO BE AT CONTINUED RISK. ALLISON SAYS SHE HOPES MEDICARE WILL EVENTUALLY REIMBURSE HER, BUT SHE ISN'T CONFIDENT. IT REALLY MAKES ME FURIOUS BECAUSE I BELIEVE. THAT THE DECISION FOR MEDICARE NOT TO IMMEDIATELY REIMBURSE FOR THIS. IS. DETERMINED BY POLITICS, NOT MEDICINE. STEVE PATTERSON, NBC NEWS, PASADENA, CALIFORNIA, AND WE WILL BE RIGHT BACK WITH THE UGLY INCIDENTS IN.
