MOMENTS AGO, THE HOUSE REJECTING IMPEACHMENT ARTICLES. AGAINST DEFENSE SECRETARY PETE HEGSETH. REPUBLICANS UNITING TO BLOCK THEM FROM MOVING FORWARD FOLLOWING HEXETH'S. FIERY REBUKE OF THE OUTGOING CONGRESSMAN WHO INTRODUCED THEM, THOMAS MASSEY, A FIERCE CRITIC OF PRESIDENT TRUMP WHO WAS DEFEATED IN A REPUBLICAN PRIMARY. WHAT ONE DISGRUNTLED. AND DEFEATED CONGRESSMAN IS ATTEMPTING. IS NOT OVERSIGHT. AND IT'S NOT ACCOUNTABILITY. IT'S A POLITICAL SPECTACLE, A PERSONAL MANIFESTO DRIVEN BY EGO.

AND RESENTMENT, IT'S A FARCE. AND IT'S A STUNT. AND EVERYBODY. KNOWS IT. THE CHARGES MASSI ALLEGED INCLUDED WAGING. THE IRAN WAR WITHOUT CONGRESSIONAL APPROVAL, ILLEGALLY TARGETING SUSPECTED DRUG TRAFFICKERS, AND KIDNAPPING VENEZUELA'S AUTHORITARIAN LEADER NICOLAS MADURO. WE DESTROYED. TERROR REGIME'S CAPABILITIES. WE SANK THE BOATS CARRYING POISON INTO OUR COMMUNITIES. WE PUT A NARCO DICTATOR IN HANDCUFFS.

THESE ARE NOT. HIGH CRIMES. THIS IS THE JOB, BUT MASSEY SAYS HEGSETH'S ACTIONS ARE ENDANGERING THE TROOPS. HE HAS VIOLATED THE NORMS OF WAR, AND IT'S TO THE DISADVANTAGE AND THE DISHONOR. OF OUR COUNTRY AND TO THE DANGER OF OUR SOLDIERS. AND TONIGHT BIPARTISAN CRITICISM OF HEGSETH. THAT WE COULD DO IS MOVE HIM ALONG, GET SOMEBODY IN THERE THAT CAN HELP. LAST WEEK, TWO PEOPLE FAMILIAR WITH THE DISCUSSIONS TELLING NBC NEWS. PRESIDENT TRUMP TOLD ALLIES HE WAS CONSIDERING REPLACING HEGSETH.

BUT TONIGHT, PRESIDENT TRUMP GIVING HIM AN A+++ FOR HIS BRIEFING PERFORMANCE. COURTNEY JOINS US NOW, AND COURTNEY, THIS IS NOT DONE YET. DEMOCRATS COULD PUSH TO IMPEACH HEGSETH. AGAIN IN JANUARY. YEAH, THAT'S RIGHT. AND REMEMBER DEMOCRATS WILL HAVE A MAJORITY IN. THE HOUSE TO PASS ARTICLES OF IMPEACHMENT, BUT THEY'LL STILL NEED SOME REPUBLICAN VOTES IF. THEY WANT A CONVICTION IN THE SENATE.

ALL RIGHT, BILL, WE'LL KEEP AN EYE ALL WEEK ON THAT ONE. SHARES OF TECH GIANT NVIDIA FELL TODAY AS THAT COMPANY IS. DEALING WITH ITS CEO ADMITTING TO AN AFFAIR THAT US INTELLIGENCE AGENCIES.

TONIGHT, THE NEW YORK TIMES REPORTS THAT ACCORDING TO PEOPLE WITH KNOWLEDGE OF THE MATTER, IN MAY, PRESIDENT TRUMP WAS TOLD ON AIR FORCE ONE WHILE EN ROUTE TO CHINA. THAT HUANG WAS IN A RELATIONSHIP WITH A WOMAN BELIEVED TO BE A CHINESE SPY. THE MESSAGE COMING FROM SECRETARY OF STATE MARCO RUBIO. HUANG INITIALLY NOT ON THE.

AT LEAST 2 PEOPLE WERE ARRESTED IN THE INCIDENT. WAS THERE TO SUPPORT HIS SON WHO WAS AT TRINITY COLLEGE GETTING AN AWARD.

THE FORMER PRESIDENT JUST ANNOUNCED PLANS TO SCALE BACK A BOOK TOUR. AS HE BATTLES CANCER. OK, BACK HERE AT HOME TO AN UNEXPECTED TWIST IN THE CRIMINAL CASE. AGAINST THOMAS MARKLE SENIOR. HE'S NOW BACK IN CUSTODY AFTER TRYING TO REMOVE HIS ANKLE MONITOR. JESSE KIRSCH REPORTS. TONIGHT MEGHAN MARKLE'S ESTRANGED FATHER ACCUSED. OF CUTTING OFF HIS ANKLE MONITOR. IT ALLEGEDLY HAPPENED AT 1:45 THIS MORNING WITH FEDERAL LAW ENFORCEMENT. ARRESTING HIM IN A 13 MINUTE HEARING IN TAMPA THIS AFTERNOON,

A FEDERAL JUDGE REVOKING THOMAS MARKLE SR.S PRETRIAL RELEASE. AND ORDERING HIM DETAINED. PENDING THE RESOLUTION OF THIS CASE. ON FRIDAY, THE 80. THE TWO YEAR OLD WAS CHARGED WITH ONE COUNT OF POSSESSION OF CHILD PORNOGRAPHY. AFTER THE FBI SAYS INVESTIGATORS DISCOVERED. SUSPECTED CHILD SEXUAL ABUSE MATERIAL. MARKLE HAS PREVIOUSLY DENIED POSSESSING THAT TYPE OF MATERIAL. THE COURTROOM CRACKDOWN COMING THE SAME DAY MEGAN MADE. HER FIRST PUBLIC APPEARANCE SINCE HER ESTRANGED FATHER'S ARREST.

THE CONSEQUENCES OF SOCIAL MEDIA HAVE BEEN FELT. BY MANY. IN HOUSES, IN SCHOOLS, ALL AROUND THE WORLD, ALONGSIDE HER HUSBAND PRINCE HARRY, THE DUCHESS OF SUSSEX WAS IN BRUSSELS FOR. AN EVENT FOCUSED ON CHILDREN'S ONLINE SAFETY. MEGHAN WAS REPORTEDLY SUPPOSED TO SPEAK. BUT CANCELED HER REMARKS. AND BACK HERE IN THE US DURING TODAY'S HEARING, THOMAS MARKLE SENIOR. DENIED VIOLATING THE. OF HIS RELEASE, BUT AS OF NOW. HE WILL REMAIN. DETAINED.

TOM, ALL RIGHT, JESSE KIRSCH, WHEN WE RETURN IN 60 SECONDS, OUR AWARD WINNING SERIES THE VACCINE DIVIDE, OUR BRAND NEW DATA ON HOW LOW MEASLES VACCINATION RATES HAVE FALLEN. THE MOTHER, WHOSE 8 UNVACCINATED KIDS ALL GOT SICK, BUT. WHY SHE TELLS US SHE HAS NO REGRETS. PLUS THE FIERY CAR WRESCUE CAUGHT. ON AN OFFICER'S BODY CAM AND IT'S NOT THE FIRST TIME HE SAVED THE DAY. AND WHERE BILLY JOEL IS RETURNING TO THE STAGE AFTER BRAIN SURGERY, WE'LL TELL YOU.

WE'RE BACK NOW WITH OUR INVESTIGATIVE REPORT. THE VACCINE DIVIDE AND THE STUNNING SURGE OF MEASLES CASES. ACROSS THE US, NOW AT A 35-YEAR HIGH. MEASLES CASES HAVE MADE SUCH A RETURN THAT THE PAN AMERICAN HEALTH ORGANIZATION. COULD REMOVE THE U.S.'S ELIMINATION STATUS THIS WEEK. ERIN MCLAUGHLIN TRAVELED TO HARD-HIT PENNSYLVANIA. TO FIND OUT WHAT'S GOING ON. OVER THE SUMMER IN LANCASTER COUNTY, PENNSYLVANIA, THE EPICENTER OF A DEADLY MEASLES OUTBREAK, ALL 8 OF GINA KING'S CHILDREN CAME DOWN WITH THE VIRUS,

INCLUDING HER SON BRYSON, WHO WAS SO SICK HE HAD TO BE RUSHED TO THE HOSPITAL. IT WAS SOMETHING THAT. CAN KIND OF BE SCARY. BECAUSE HER SO MANY UNKNOWNS AND EVEN THE. DOCTOR'S OFFICES HAVEN'T SEEN VERY MUCH OF IT. FOR A LONG TIME. ALL 8 OF THE CHILDREN UNVACCINATED, AS THE BIRD BY WANDERING, AS THE SWALLOW BY. SOMETHING GINA AND HER HUSBAND SEAN SAY. THEY DECIDED FOR RELIGIOUS AND HEALTH REASONS. THERE IS THE VACCINE, AND THE VACCINE IS VERY EFFECTIVE. MY HUSBAND AND I,

WHEN WE STARTED HAVING CHILDREN, WE HAD THAT CONVERSATION. WE. DID A LOT OF RESEARCH, READING. WE WERE MORE COMFORTABLE WITH. NOT VACCINATING. I MEAN, WHEN YOU LOOK BACK AT THIS ENTIRE ORDEAL, DO YOU HAVE ANY REGRETS? I DON'T. AS ODD AS THIS SOUNDS, I FEEL LIKE IT WAS, UM, A BONDING TIME FOR OUR FAMILY. IT'S NEVER PLEASANT TO BE SICK, AND I CERTAINLY WOULDN'T WISH IT ON ANYONE. WHILE THE KING FAMILY SAYS THEY SELF-QUARANTINED. TO AVOID SPREADING THE VIRUS TO OTHERS,

LANCASTER COUNTY HAS REPORTED MORE THAN 500 CASES OF MEASLES IN THE PAST FEW NTHS, A LIKELY UNDERCOUNT ACCORDING TO DOCTORS. VACCINATION RATES THERE HAVE BEEN FALLING AT WHAT. HEALTH EXPERTS SAY IS AN ALARMING RATE. ABOVE 95% IN 2017 TO 88% IN THE LAST YEAR. I'M SEEING. BABIES WHO ARE SUFFERING OR IN PAIN, WHO ARE STRUGGLING TO BREATHE OR WHO CAN'T TAKE A BOTTLE. I'M SEEING KIDS THAT HAVE ENCEPHALITIS AND THEY'RE NOT ABLE. TO RECOGNIZE THEIR OWN MOM OR THEIR OWN DAD. WITH 6 MEASLES RELATED DEATHS NOW REPORTED ACROSS PENNSYLVANIA.

EVAN SHIRE, A PEDIATRIC INFECTIOUS DISEASE SPECIALIST NEAR LANCASTER, SAYS MISINFORMATION IS FUELING THE OUTBREAK. THE VACCINE IS EXTREMELY SAFE AND EXTREMELY EFFECTIVE. WE ARE SEEING THIS OUTBREAK NOW BECAUSE OF A FAILURE TO VACCINATE. AN NBC NEWS INVESTIGATION SHOWS THE DECISION NOT TO. VACCINATE IS BECOMING MORE COMMON ACROSS THE COUNTRY. OUR TEAM WORKING WITH RESEARCHERS AT STANFORD UNIVERSITY. ANALYZED SCHOOL IMMUNIZATION DATA FROM EVERY STATE. SINCE 2019, 82% OF COUNTIES AND JURISDICTIONS IN THE US.

HAVE REPORTED DECLINES IN CHILDHOOD MMR VAATION RATES. 57% SAW A DROP IN JUST THE LAST YEAR, A NATIONAL TREND EXPERTS SAY IS FUELED BY BACKLASH TO COVID MANDATES. ONLINE MISINFORMATION. AND PROMINENT VACCINE SKEPTICS. LAUREN SHOUP AND HER FAMILY LIVE OUTSIDE OF PITTSBURGH. LAUREN'S BABY KIERAN IS TOO YOUNG TO BE VACCINATED. I JUST FELT A LITTLE BIT OF ANGER TOWARDS THE PUBLIC AT LARGE BECAUSE. WE'RE NOT DOING WHAT WE CAN TO PROTECT THOSE THAT CAN'T PROTECT THEMSELVES.

2 MONTHS AGO, LAUREN GOT THE CALL THAT KIERAN HAD BEEN EXPOSED TO MEASLES DURING A DOCTOR'S VISIT. IT'S SCARY. IT'S DEVASTATING. 2 MONTHS IS JUST SUCH A FRAGILE AGE BECAUSE MEASLES CAN BE DEADLY FOR BABIES. I MEAN WE'RE RELYING ON THE COMMUNITY TO MAKE GOOD CHOICES. LAUREN SAID SHE WAS TOLD KAREN NEEDED TO QUARANTINE. FOR WEEKS AND RECEIVED AN INJECTION OF PROTECTIVE ANTIBODIES. NOW THAT KAREN'S CLEARED FOR DAYCARE, LAUREN'S COUNTING DOWN THE MONTHS UNTIL SHE'S OLD ENOUGH TO GET THE VACCINE. IT'S FRIGHTENING BECAUSE SHE'S STILL VERY SUSCEPTIBLE.

WHILUREN AND OTHERS SAY THEY'RE LIVING IN FEAR, DOCTOR SHIREY SAYS HE'S BRACING FOR THE OUTBREAK TO GET WORSE AS WINTER SETS IN. ARE YOU CONCERNED THAT MORE WILL DIE. BECAUSE OF THIS OUTBREAK? YES, IT'S NEARLY A CERTAINTY THAT WE WILL CONTINUE TO SEE MORE FATALITIES. VERY SCARY WHEN YOU HEAR IT PUT THAT WAY. ERIN JOINS US NOW AND ERIN, OUR INVESTIGATION FOUND THAT MUCH OF THE COUNTRY. IS NOW BELOW THE VACCINE THRESHOLD RECOMMENDATION. THAT'S RIGHT, TOM. 3 QUARTERS OF ALL US COUNTIES FALL BELOW.

THAT VERY CRITICAL 95% THRESHOLD REQUIRED FOR. HERD IMMUNITY. NOW IF YOU WANT TO KNOW WHAT'S HAPPENING IN YOUR COUNTY, LOG ON TO NBCNEWS.COM/VACCINEDIVIDE. ALL RIGHT, ERIN, WE THANK YOU FOR THAT. WE'RE BACK IN A MOMENT WITH INFLATION RISING EVEN AS GAS PRICES FALL. AND THE ULTRA MARATHON ON ICE, HOW ONE HUMANOID ROBOT FARED AGAINST HUMANS. WELCOME BACK. SOME GOOD NEWS FOR DRIVERS. THERE'S RELIEF AT THE GAS PUMP AS PRICES FELL.

JUST A LITTLE BIT HERE. IT WENT JUST BELOW $4 A GALLON FOR THE FIRST TIME SINCE JULY. INFLATION MEANWHILE REMAINS HIGH, RISING 0.4% IN OCTOBER, AND OTHER CONSUMER CATEGORIES RISING AS WELL, INCLUDING FRUITS AND VEGETABLES. THE PRICE OF SMARTPHONES ALSO RISING BECAUSE OF THE ARTIFICIAL INTELLIGENCE. BOOM, AND A DARING RESCUE FROM CALIFORNIA ALL CAUGHT ON A POLICE OFFICER'S BODY CAM. IT HAPPENED IN DAVIS, AND YOU CAN SEE THE OFFICER. SPRINTING TOWARDS THAT CAR WITH FLAMES SHOOTING OUT OF IT, HE BREAKS THE WINDOW. AND TRIES TO REVIVE THE DRIVER WHO'S PASSED OUT.

HE MANAGES TO GET HIM OUT. IT'S THE OFFICER'S SECOND TIME SAVING SOMEONE. FROM A BURNING CAR. THE PIANO MAN BILLY JOEL IS MAKING HIS OFFICIAL RETURN. TO THE STAGE SINCE HAVING BRAIN SURGERY THIS YEAR. THE SINGER ANNOUNCED ON SOCIAL MEDIA THAT HE'S EXPECTED TO DO A Q & A WITH. A LITTLE MUSIC AT FLORIDA ATLANTIC UNIVERSITY FOR THE STUDENTS THERE. THEY LOOK FORWARD TO SEEING HIM BACK ON STAGE SOON. ANTARCTICA. HUMANOID ROBOT CALLED. QUESTER TESTING ITS ENDURANCE. IT. JOINED RUNNERS TAKING PART IN THE ANTARCTICA ICE ULTRAMARATHON.

IN FREEZING CONDITIONS. YES, THERE IS A RACE THERE. THEY RAN UP TO 100 MILES, BUT QUESTER'S RACE ENDED AFTER JUST. 2 MILES WHEN ITS BATTERY RAN OUT. THE ROBOT. TAKING A WELL-EARNED BREAK TO RECHARGE HERE. AFTER THE RACE. ALL RIGHT, THAT'S NIGHTLY NEWS FOR THIS TUESDAY. I'M TOM YAMAS. WE THANK YOU SO MUCH FOR WATCHING. TONIGHT, AND ALWAYS WE'RE HERE FOR YOU. GOOD NIGHT.
