Representatives to be vacant. Its great to be with a bunch of people talking smack about tom brady. Good morning and welcome to sunday today on this mothers day, may 12th. Im willie geist. A very happy mothers day to all of you moms out there. This morning the Israeli Military is warning palestinians to evacuate parts of rafah, a city in Southern Gaza, where many of them have fled during the last seven months of war. Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu saying his troops will continue the effort there to root out Hamas Terrorists who carried out the attacks of october 7th. A decision that has caused a rift with the United States and a threat this week from President Biden to pause the shipment of heavy bombs. Well have the latest in a live report from the region and talk to Kristen Welker just ahead. Plus,a week of sustained Severe Weather across the midwest and south, our sunday focus is on the drift of major tornadoes to more Populated Areas. What is behind the unusual rash of storms . Then, our sunday spotlight on the small town in wisconsin that has been revived by beer. Well pour a tall one and explain. And later, a new sunday sitdown with our 30 rock neighbor, jimmy fallon, as he celebrates ten years as host of the tonight show, a job that still feels like a dream. My wife always says that shes so grateful for the show, just for my brain, therapy wise, because ill have a dream, and ill wake up in the middle of the night with my phone and be like [ inaudible ]. That came to you in a dream . Tight pan . Isnt that sad . You have a weird brain. A sunday sitdown with jimmy fallon late in the show. Israels preparation for what looks like a likely attack on Hamas Terrorists in the Southern City of rafah. The military ordering hundreds of thousands of palestinians to evacuate to safety. Nbc is covering the story. What is the latest . Reporter 300,000 people are on the move in Southern Gaza, the population of pittsburgh, with people fleeing for their lives once again as the israeli Prime Minister, Benjamin Netanyahu, appears to prepare for that offensive that President Biden has publicly opposed for months. This morning panicked scenes in Southern Gaza with israel expanding evacuation orders in rafah. Displaced palestinians fleeing once again carrying their few belongings. The idf issuing orders, telling residents to get out of the combat zone. And fears mount that israels longanticipated offensive in Southern Gaza is imminent. The impending assault leading to division with the u. S. President biden saying the u. S. Would withhold arms shipments if israel invades rafah. Weve destroyed about 20 battalions of hamas 24 terrorist battalions. We have another four to go. Theyre in rafah. Thats why we want to go in. Reporter among those on the move, this mother, fleeing with her baby. We are leaving for the unknown, she says, and there are no safe areas at all. The idf has urged civilians to head to other coastal areas. It is hot and there is no water or electricity. Israel has targeted the socalled safe zones in the past and air strikes have intensified in the last day and a half. Aids groups say no supplies have made it in since monday. This u. N. Warehouse in gaza sits empty, one of the few functioning hospitals with only 36 hours of fuel left. For the displaced, for the bereaved, and the families of hostages, the next chapter in the gaza war could be the hardest one yet. Meanwhile, the idf has increased its bombings in the north and east while also occupying the Border Crossing with egypt in the south. And that means, willie, no aid has come into the besieged enclave for almost a week. Back to you. Hala gorani on a desperate situation in gaza. Thank you so much. Kristen, good morning. Always great to see you on a sunday morning. President biden, as hala reported there, threatening Prime Minister netanyahu that hes going to hold back on some of those heavy bombs, providing lots of aid to israel. But on the heavy bombs, if netanyahu does, in fact, go into rafah, which looks like its going to happen. For President Biden how much is this about the relationship with israel and how much about domestic politics playing to his progressive base in an Election Year . Willie, its a great question, and i think its a little bit of both. Look, we know that President Biden and the Biden Administration have grown increasingly frustrated with the way in which Prime Minister netanyahu and the israelis have waged this war. The fact the death toll continues to mount, that dire humanitarian crisis that hala was just talking about. So he has been warning him privately, its now spilled out into the open in this stark warning that if he does, in fact, move forward with a fullscale Ground Invasion into rafah, the u. S. Will withhold military aid to israel. Heres the question. What is bidens red line . Thats not clear. Thats one of the things ill be talking to the secretary of state about this morning, willie, when i have a chance to ask him some of these questions. There is a political component to this as well. This issue the middle east has divided as weve seen on College Campuses. 26 House Democrats sent a letter to the administration saying they were concerned about the potential impact it could have, and weve seen the president s poll numbers start to drop, particularly among younger voters. So it is an attempt to try to address that as well, but ultimately this new warning from President Biden has been met by criticism from a number of different sides. So a lot to talk about. Well talk to senator Bernie Sanders, of course, an independent, and senator Lindsey Graham about all of this coming up on the show, willie. Kristen, well look for more on meet the press when kristen is joined by secretary of state antony blinken, independent senator Bernie Sanders of vermont and republican senator Lindsey Graham of south carolina. After weeks of protests of the war in gaza on College Campuses across the country, a handful of graduations have been disrupted as well. On saturday a group of graduates at Virginia Commonwealth University walked out as Governor Glenn Youngkin took the stage for the keynote address. Propalestinian chants broke out during several Commencement Ceremonies at uc berkeley, and pomona colleges Graduation Ceremony to be moved off campus after propalestinian protesters set up an encampment on the ceremony stage.

Trumps onetime fixer and lawyer Michael Cohen is at the center of the prosecutions case. The former president spending his weekends on the campaign trail rallying saturday on the jersey shore in a state that hasnt gone republican since 1988. Nbcs dasha burns was there for us.

Reporter the rally a reprieve from his manhattan hush money trial which picks up again tomorrow with one of the prosecutions most anticipated witnesses, former fixer turned foe, Michael Cohen. The jury has already seen evidence that cohen paid adult film actress Stormy Daniels 130,000 to keep her story alleging an affair with mr. Trump under wraps in order to protect his campaign for president. But cohens testimony could directly tie the former president to the scheme and the crime of falsifying Business Records to influence an election when he repaid cohen that money. Mr. Trump has pled not guilty. Cohen was once among mr. Trumps most loyal protectors. Now a constant detractor on social media and beyond. The judge asking cohen to refrain from publicly discussing the case or the former president. Meantime, mr. Trumps defense team has been laying the groundwork for a tough crossexamination looking to undermine cohens credibility using his own criminal past and history of lying under oath. And, willie, the prosecution says after cohen, they have one more witness and could rest their case by the end of the week. Then the big question remains, will former President Trump himself take the stand in his defense . Willie . Back in court tomorrow. We will see. Dasha burn, thank you so much.
