Tennis star coco gauff won her first major title over the weekend at the u. S. Open. The youngest to do so since serena williams. Well show you that incredible moment straight ahead. Good morning and welcome to Way Too Early on this monday, September 11th. Im jonathan lemire, and thanks for starting your day and week with us. And, of course, today marks 22 years since the deadliest Terrorist Attack in American History when hijacked planes were flown into the World Trade Center and the pentagon and the moment when United Airlines flight 93 crashed into a field in pennsylvania after passengers worked together to stop the terrorists on board. Nearly 3,000 people were killed that day. That attack defined a new era for americans way of life and reshaped nations both foreign and domestic policy. Hours from now, commemorations will stretch from ground zero and beyond to observe the solemn anniversary. President biden will be returning from his overseas Trip To India and vietnam and will stop in alaska where hell speak with more than 1,000 Service Members and First Responders at a Military Base in anchorage. Vice president Kamala Harris will attend a ceremony in New York City as we look at live pictures of the world trade memorial at ground zero. This as officials identified the remains of two victims at the World Trade Center, the first in nearly two years. We learn a maam and woman were identified with advance testing but their names are being withheld at the request of the families. We remember american lives lost on one of americas darkest days. We turn overseas after a powerful earthquake destroyed cities and villages across the country on friday and has killed more than 2,200 people, a number that may go up. Nbc news Foreign Correspondent raf sanchez has the latest. Reporter new images the moment this 6. 8 earthquake tore through the city. At a Rooftop Restaurant Tourists running for their lives. Its passing, its passing. Its passing. Reporter this person fleeing as Rubble Crashes around them. Others escaping through alleyways. The death toll rising above 2,100. The desperate search for survivors is now in a critical phase. Bringing moments of breathless joy as some are pulled to safety. But also heartbreak when the rescuers arrive too late. We traveled up a winding Mountain Road blocked in places by boulders to reach this individual. Were standing in front of what was once a village shrine. In front of it, reminders of peoples shattered lives including their mail and their bills. Reporter locals say 40 people died here, more than 1 of the entire community. Among them, he lost his baby daughter, son, and wife. He said i had a home and family and now i have nothing. Across morocco, families sleeping on the streets, worried that aftershocks could still bring their homes crashing down, a nation struggling first to rescue and then recover and rebuild. Truly, truly heartbreaking. We turn now to domestic politics back here in the states and a College Football rivalry was injected with even more bitterness over the weekend with the two frontrunners and the republican president ial nomination. Both showed up to the same game. Both former President Donald Trump and Florida Governor ron desantis attended The Game Iowa and iowa state. Trump sat in a private seat and was greeted with boos and some cheers. Desantis sat in the stands with Iowa Republican governor kim reynolds who he said he would consider for Vice President if he were the nominee. They tailgated with fans before the game. Trump tossed around a few footballs. Meanwhile Michael Mccaul is now criticizing gop senator Tommy Tubervilles ongoing blockade of mill mair promotions. Heres what the commentator had to say on cnn yesterday. This is paralyzing to the department of defense. The idea that one man in the senate can hold this up for months, i understand promotions, but nominations is paralyzing the department of defense. I think that is a National Security problem and a National Security issue, and i really wish he would reconsider this. Since february, tuberville has single handedly delayed more than 300 top Military Confirmations over his objection to a pentagon policy that allowed for paid leave and travel reimbursement for Service Members seeking abortion services. Else w, former House Speaker nancy pelosi said she will seek reelection for her congressional seat. She made that announcement in a social media post on friday, writing in part this, our country needs to show america that our flag is still there, with liberty and justice for all, and thats why im running for reelection and respectfully ask for your vote. She was first voted in in 1987 and served as speaker of the house. She stepped down from leadership after the republicans took control of the house change ber. Joining us now, punch bowls jake sherman. Hes an msnbc contributor. Lets start with former speaker pelosi. Whats the reaction to this decision, both in terms of is this going to be potentially perceived as a looming shadow for Hakim Jeffries and also just this idea of her age . Does this raise questions again about politicians refusing to step aside and refocus on this issue at a time when President Biden is trying to get away from it . Happy monday, jon. Lets take this piece by piece. I dont think its a looming shadow as all for Hakim Jeffreys who has a Good Relationship with pelosi and has called on pelosi on some occasions and has taken advice from her as she stepped down to allow him to make way as leader. We are in an era where people are, i would say, questioning the utility of some older members of congress and their Staying Power on capitol hill. Dianne feinstein is infirm and thats been well covered. Mitch mcconnell has obviously had Health Issues over the last couple of weeks and months, so this is an issue thats very hot right now. I will say this about nancy pelosi. I deal with all of these folks. More mcconnell and pelosi on a daily basis than feinstein. I think that nancy pelosi is in a Different League than most of the members in congress. She has completely with it, has no Health Issues that we can tell, and until recently was one of the most effective congressional leaders weve ever seen on capitol hill. But i think there will always be a segment of the Chattering Class and population that question the utility and propriety, quite frankly, of older people being in congress for as long as they are, and to be honest with you, thats promote in some cases. Yeah, its certainly a growing conversation. Youre right to note, just a couple of years ago, nancy pelosi was sort of the face of the Democratic Party and pushing back against his administration. Lets talk now about senator tommy tuberville. We played the criticism. The house is returning from recess this week. Do we think were going to see an escalation of pressure from republicans, house and senate alike, on tuberville . Is he giving any signs at all of budging . No, no signs, and the criticism doesnt really move him at all, to be honest with you. He thinks hes fighting a fight worth fighting, for lack of a better phrase. Heres the rub, jon. Democrats could if they wanted to begin to put some of these military nominees on the floor. Theyve said that they wont do that one by one because they see it as rewarding tubervilles behavior. Now, you know, theres a saying that i think is worth thinking about. Theyre engaged as they are. Tuberville is not going to give up. If you want a chairman of the joint chiefs of staff, it doesnt appear like hes going to be moved in any way, shape, or form. You want to think of alternate stats. I think both sides here or democrats quite frankly because they control the senate need to come up with a second path, a second way to get these confirmations through. We have many things well be discussing with jake sherman in the weeks ahead with the house coming back. Certainly Government Funding Showdown looming and perhaps an Impeachment Inquiry as well. Well be talking with you soon. Still ahead here on Way Too Early, well bring you the very latest on the search for an escaped inmate in pennsylvania.

You couple that with weather, aviation being down for a night. There are a number of reasons. Again, no excuses. We turn now to fulton county, georgia, where mark meadows has lost his bid to move the criminal case against him to federal court. The judge ruled on friday that meadows alleged involvement to pressure State Officials to overturn the 2020 Election Results was not part of his official duties as white house chief of staff. According to a court filing, the judge found that the actions, quote, at the heart of the state charges against meadows were taken on behalf of the Trump Campaign with the ultimate goal of affecting State Election activities and procedures. Meadows has already notified the court he plans to appeal. In his ruling the judge said his decision does not have any effect on the outcome of other codefendants seeking to move their cases to federal court.
