AND BY VIEWERS LIKE YOU.

THANK YOU.

>> EIGHT SERVICE MEMBERS ATTACHED TO THE U.S.S.

ABRAHAM LINCOLN STRIKE GROUP ATTEMPTED SUICIDE DURING THE ONGOING 10-MONTH DEPLOYMENT.

THANK YOU FOR JOINING US.

THE ACTING NAVY SECRETARY DISCLOSED THE NUMBER IN A LETTER THIS WEEK TO NEW YORK SENATOR.

THE ISSUE IS BIGGER THAN ONE LONG DEPLOYMENT.

>> Reporter: CONFIRMED TWO LINCOLN INCIDENTS PREVIOUSLY REPORTED.

ONE SAILOR JUMPED OVERBOARD IN AUGUST AND ANOTHER ATTEMPTED TO DO SO IN THE SPRING.

THE ACTING SECRETARY SAID BOTH WERE TRANSFERRED OFF OF THE SHIPS AND NONE OF THE ATTEMPTS RESULTED IN DEATH.

THE EIGHT ATTEMPTS ARE FROM THE LINCOLN STRIKE GROUP.

THE DEPLOYMENT HAS BEEN HARD ON THE CREW.

THE SHIP SPENT A RECORD 264 CONSECUTIVE DAYS AT SEA BEFORE STOPPING IN THAILAND THIS MONTH.

BUT THE ATTEMPTS THE ACTING SECRETARY REPORTED NEED MORE CONTEXT.

CNN REPORTS THE RATE OF ATTEMPTS IS ROUGHLY IN LINE WITH THE NAVY'S 2024 NUMBERS.

SERVICE MEMBERS CAN BE AT RISK OF SUICIDE REGARDLESS OF THEIR DEPLOYMENT STATUS.

EXPERTS SAY SUPPORT AND TREATMENT CAN HELP MOST PEOPLE WHO HAVE THOUGHTS OF SUICIDE.

PROFESSIONAL HELP IS AVAILABLE TO ANYONE BY CALLING 988.

LINCOLN LEFT GUAM SUNDAY AND IS EXPECTED BACK WITHIN WEEKS.

>> IF YOU OR SOMEONE YOU KNOW IS IN CRISIS, THERE ARE RESOURCES AVAILABLE.

CALL OR TEXT 988 OR CHAT AT 988LIFELINE.ORG.

WE WILL HAVE MORE DETAILS COMING UP.

>> DOZENS OF COUNTY RESIDENTS GATHERED OUTSIDE CITY HALL TO PROTEST THE CITY'S FIRING RANGE CONTRACT FOR THE CITY OF HOMELAND SECURITY.

THE EFFORT COMES JUST OVER A MONTH AFTER SAN DIEGO COUNTY SUPERVISORS ENDED THEIR GUN RANGE AGREEMENTS WITH THE FEDERAL GOVERNMENT.

>> Reporter: MONTHS AFTER A MAJORITY OF THE CITY COUNCIL LEFT THE CONTRACT WITH THE DEPARTMENT OF HOMELAND SECURITY IN PLACE TO USE A CITY-OWNED SHOOTING RANGE FOR PRACTICE, COMMUNITY MEMBERS ARE MAKING THEIR VOICES HEARD ONCE AGAIN.

PROTESTERS GATHERED THURSDAY AROUND CITY HALL.

>> I AM STILL AFRAID.

I HAVE TO CARRY ON MY PASSPORT WITH ME.

IT IS FEAR.

IT IS FEAR IN OUR BODY.

OUR KIDS ARE AFRAID.

>> BACK IN FEBRUARY HUNDREDS ASKED THE CITY TO END THE CONTRACT.

THE AGENCY USED THE FIRING RANGE OFF OF VALLEY CENTER ROAD SINCE 2013.

>> THE COUNTY OF SAN DIEGO TERMINATED THEIR OWN FIRING RANGE AGREEMENT WITH I.C.E.

THAT IS IMPORTANT AND THEY SHOULD FOLLOW THE LEAD.

YOU CAN'T DO BUSINESS WITH I.C.E.

SALVADOR IS A STAFF ATTORNEY.

HIS ORGANIZATION FILED A PUBLIC RECORDS ACT REQUEST.

THEY RECEIVE THOUSANDS OF DOCUMENTS AND REVIEWED THEM.

HE CLAIMS THE FIRING RANGE RENTAL HAS ENABLED ABUSE IN OTHER CITIES LIKE MINNEAPOLIS AND LOS ANGELES.

>> THE MAYOR AND THE CHIEF OF POLICE CAN END THE CONTRACT ANY DAY OF THE WEEK.

WE KNOW THE RENEWAL IS COMING UP FOR THE END OF THE YEAR.

>> COUNCILMEMBER MARTINEZ MOVED TO CANCEL THE CONTRACT BUT THE MOTION FAILED.

THEY ARE CALLING ON OTHER CITY COUNCILMEMBERS TO LISTEN TO THE REQUESTS.

KPBS REACHED OUT TO ALL AND WE ONLY HEARD BACK FROM JOE GARCIA IN TIME FOR PUBLICATION.

HE SAID THE CITY'S AGREEMENT IS SPECIFICALLY WITH HOMELAND SECURITY INVESTIGATIONS.

THE INVESTIGATIVE ARM OF I.C.E.

CITY COLLEGE SAID GOING FORWARD THEY WILL BE USING THE RAVE EMERGENCY TEXT ALERT SYSTEM TO IMMEDIATELY NOTIFY PEOPLE WHEN I.C.E.

IS ON CAMPUS AS WELL AS WHEN I.C.E.

LEAVES.

SIGNS WILL BE INSTALLED AT PROMINENT PLACES ON THE CAMPUS ACROSS THE DISTRICT, CLEARLY STATING IMMIGRATION ENFORCEMENT IS PROHIBITED.

CALIFORNIA SUPREME COURT SAYS RIVERSIDE COUNTY'S SHERIFF MUST RETURN NEARLY MORE THAN A HALF MILLION BALLOTS HE SEIZED.

HE SAID HE TOOK THE BALLOTS FOR AN INVESTIGATION.

LOCAL ELECTION OFFICIALS PREVIOUSLY SAID THE COMPLAINT WAS UNFOUNDED.

HE WAS A CANDIDATE FOR CALIFORNIA GOVERNOR IN THE LAST JUNE PRIMARY.

IN AN EMAIL MESSAGE HE SAID THAT HE WILL COMPLY WITH THE COURT'S ORDER.

BREATHING IN OUTDOOR AIR NEAR THE TIJUANA RIVER IS A PUBLIC HEALTH HAZARD.

THOSE ARE THE CONCLUSIONS OF A NEW REPORT BY THE AGENCY FOR TOXIC SUBSTANCES AND DISEASE REGISTRY.

IT IS THE FIRST TIME A FEDERAL AGENCY IS PUBLICLY AFFIRMING WHAT RESIDENTS HAVE BEEN SAYING FOR YEARS.

>> Reporter: E ING POLLUTION IN THE TIJUANA RIVER HAS BEEN FLOWING FOR DECADES.

AT THE TIME COUNTY OFFICIALS TRIED TO EASE CONCERNS ABOUT RISKS ASSOCIATED WITH EXPOSURE TO HYDROGEN SULFIDE.

THERE IS CONTINUOUS AIR MONITORING AND A GROWING UNDERSTANDING OF EXPOSURE TO SEWER GAS.

>> WE ARE CONSTANTLY BEING BOMBARDED BY THIS SMELL.

>> Reporter: NOW A FEDERAL AGENCY ANALYZED MEASUREMENTS TAKEN OVER MONTHS BETWEEN 2024 AND 2025 CONCLUDING WHAT RESIDENTS HAVE BEEN SAYING ALL ALONG.

>> THAT DAY OR A COUPLE OF DAYS LATER SHE HAS A RUNNY NOSE, COUGH AND ENDED UP HAVING TO GO TO THE EMERGENCY ROOM.

SPENDING A HALF MILLION ON AIR PURIFIERS IN THE CLASSROOMS.

>> WHENEVER THE READINGS ARE ELEVATED DURING THE SCHOOL DAYS WE HAVE PROTOCOL IN PLACE TO BRING STUDENTS INDOORS.

RECESS, LUNCH.

>> THEY ARE EXPECTED TO ANSWER QUESTIONS DURING A VIRTUAL MEETING ON SEPTEMBER 30th.

THE COUNTY IS FIRED OF WAITING FOR THE FEDERAL GOVERNMENT AND MEXICO TO STOP THE POLLUTION.

THE COUNTY IS EXPLORING TREATING POLLUTION IN THE RIVER AFTER IT CROSSES THE BORDER.

>> TONIGHT ON THE NEWS HOUR PRESIDENT TRUMP HOSTS CHINA'S PRESIDENT XI JINPING AT THE WHITE HOUSE.

>> THE RAPID DEVELOPMENT OF ARTIFICIAL INTELLIGENCE IS MAKING AMERICANS FEAR AND CONCERN RATHER THAN EXCITEMENT.

DANGERS ARE FRONT AND CENTER AT THE UNITED NATIONS.

AS IVAN RODRIGUEZ REPORTS LEADERS OF THE WORLD'S TOP AI COMPANY CALLED FOR A GLOBAL RESPONSE IN ORDER TO ADOPT INTERNATIONAL AI STANDARDS TODAY.

>> Reporter: AMERICANS ARE FEELING ANXIOUS OVER ARTIFICIAL INTELLIGENCE.

>> IT IS SCARY WHAT THE AGENTS DO.

>> IN A NEW POLL 9 IN 10 AMERICANS ARE MORE CONCERNED THAN EXCITED ABOUT THE POSSIBILITY THAT AI COULD ONE DAY SURPASS HUMAN INTELLIGENCE.

A SIMILAR NUMBER ABOUT THE GROWING NUMBER OF DATA CENTERS BEING CONSTRUCTED TO SUPPORT THE TECHNOLOGY AND 7 IN 10 SAID THE TECH NEEDS MORE FEDERAL REGULATION.

THAT WAS ECHOED BY AI EXECUTIVES THEMSELVES IN ADDRESSES TO THE UNITED NATIONS SECURITY COUNCIL.

>> THE MOST IMPORTANT DECISIONS CANNOT BE MADE BY LABS IN SAN FRANCISCO.

WE MUST PUT ASIDE THE DIFFERENCES IN ORDER TO CONFRONT THE GLOBAL OPPORTUNITY AND THREAT.

>> SAM ALTMAN CALLED FOR INTERNATIONAL STANDARDS AND COOPERATION, BUT SOME EXPERTS SAY THAT IS NOT ENOUGH.

>> THE BIG AI COMPANIES DO NOT WANT TO BE REGULATED.

THEY SAY THEY DO, BUT ANYTHING YOU SUGGEST THEY OPPOSE.

WE SHOULD HAVE AS STRONG REGULATIONS AS YOU DO FOR DRUGS.

YOU CAN'T RELEASE A NEW DRUG WITHOUT SATISFYING THE FDA THAT IT IS SAFE.

WE HAVE TO DO THE SAME FOR AI.

>> AI WAS EXPECTED TO BE A LEADING TOPIC OF CONVERSATION BETWEEN CHINESE LEADER XI JINPING AND PRESIDENT PRESIDENT TRUMP AT THE WHITE HOUSE TODAY.

MEANWHILE THE FEDERAL AVIATION ADMINISTRATION UNVEILED A NEW AI SYSTEM THAT IT IS HOPING CAN HELP REDUCE AIR TRAVEL DISRUPTIONS.

IT WILL FIRST LAUNCH IN THE DC AREA AIRPORTS BEFORE GOING NATIONWIDE.

>> FROM TECHNICAL GLITCHES TO BAD WEATHER, THERE ARE A LOT OF SCENARIOS THAT DISRUPT AIR TRAVEL.

5,600 FLIGHTS DELAYED AND CANCELLED A DAY.

THE FEDERAL AVIATION ADMINISTRATION IS HOPING TO IMPROVE TROUBLES IN THE SKIES BY USING AI TECHNOLOGY.

>> THIS IS A PREDICTIVE TOOL THAT WILL GIVE A PROMPT TO A HUMAN.

>> THE NEW AI SYSTEM IS CALLED SMART.

THE TRANSPORTATION SECRETARY SAYS THE TECHNOLOGY ANALYZES 200 DATA POINTS.

IT WILL HELP AIR TRAFFIC CONTROLLERS AND PILOTS TO NAVIGATE THE BEST COURSE.

>> WE CAN SEE WHERE FLIGHTS ARE GOING.

WHERE WHETHER IS GOING TO BE IN THE FUTURE.

>> THE PREDICTIONS WILL HELP AIR TRAFFIC CONTROLLERS MAKE BETTER DECISIONS ABOUT FLIGHT PATHS AND SHOULD MEAN TRAVELERS SPEND LESS TIME ON THE TARMAC.

SOME ARE WORRIED ABOUT ERRORS AND SAFETY CONCERNS.

>> THE FAA SAYS AIR TRAFFIC CONTROLLERS WILL MAKE THE DECISIONS AND NOT AI.

IT COMES WITH GROWING SECURITY ABOUT OVERALL AI USE.

FOR CONSUMER WATCH, I AM JEN SULLIVAN.

>> IF YOU THINK ART MUSEUMS ARE ONLY PLACES PAINTINGS HANG ON WALLS, THINK AGAIN.

MUSEUMS ARE CHALLENGING THE SITUATIONS IN EXCITING AND SURPRISING NEW WAYS.

THE LUCAS MUSEUM OF ART OPENED WEDNESDAY.

SOME DISMISSED IT AS A VANITY PROJECT AND A BAD IDEA.

IT DIDN'T MEET THEIR EXPECTATIONS.

IN 2018 HE KICKED IT UP WITH HIS MUSEUM UP.

THE BLANK IS BOTH AN INVITATION TO FILL IT IN WITH ENDLESS POSSIBILITIES AND A GAUNTLET THROWN DOWN TO CHALLENGE THE STATUS QUO.

>> I COLLECTED ALL MY LIFE.

ART, FURNITURE.

STRANGE OBJECTS.

NORMAL OBJECTS.

I DECIDED TO START A MUSEUM THAT YOU CAN TELL BY THE NAME.

THE MUSEUM OF.

IT CAN BE ANYTHING.

>> IT IS DEDICATED TO THE STUDY AND SHOWCASING OF ALL THAT IS EXTRAORDINARY AND ORDINARY.

NO BOARD OF DIRECTORS, ADMISSION CHARGE.

>> IT WAS A SPACE CREATED SPECIFICALLY TO SHOWCASE NOT JUST ARTWORKS BUT OBJECTS AND NARRATIVES AND STORIES THAT WERE ORDINARY AND EXTRAORDINARY OBJECTS.

WHEN I WAS ONBOARDED WE SHIFTED GEARS TOWARDS RTWORK.

WE LIKE TO SHOWCASE HOW THE ORDINARINESS IS SPECIAL.

>> JUST ONE OF MULTIPLE EXHIBITS.

>> IT CAN BE DAUNTING.

WITH THE MUSEUM OF IT IS THINGS PEOPLE CAN RELATE TO.

>> IF YOU RAN ACROSS IT WALKING DOWN AN ALLEY YOU WOULD JUST THINK IT IS TRASH.

>> IT ALL STARTED WITH GARBAGE PAIL KIDS.

THE ORIGINAL CARDS WERE IN HIS COLLECTION, AND THAT IS ALL THEY NEEDED TO INSPIRE AN EXHIBITION CALLED GARBAGE.

>> IT IS THE FIRST ONE WE ARE TRYING THE ONLINE FORMAT.

>> PEOPLE ARE RESPONDING FAVORABLY.

>> THEY ARE.

THEY SEEM TO BE PASSING THE LINK AROUND MUCH MORE THAN THEY DO WHEN I SEND OUT GALLERY ANNOUNCEMENTS FOR OUR TRADITIONAL OR MORE TRADITIONAL EXHIBITIONS.

>> SOME OF THE ART IS LITERALLY GARBAGE.

OTHER PIECES ARE PAINTINGS INSPIRED BY GARBAGE.

WHILE THE EXHIBIT IS ONLINE THE MUSEUM OF HAS A PHYSICAL SPACE.

>> THIS IS THE BACK ROOM OF MUSEUM OF.

IT IS A COLLECTION OF OBJECTS.

>> AS FAR AS THE MUSEUM OF, WE ARE ALWAYS LOOKING FOR MORE IDEAS.

YOU HAVE TO BE UNUSUAL.

>> UNUSUAL, BUT SOMETIMES IN A MUNDANE WAY SO THAT WE ARE PROMPTED TO LOOK AT THE OBJECT THAT MIGHT SURROUND US AND SEE THEM WITH NEW EYES.

OUR NATURAL CLIMATE PATTERN IS NOW ONES IT WAY TO GAINING RECORD-BREAKING STRENGTH.

THE SCIENCE AND WHAT PEOPLE NEED TO KNOW AS THEY REPRAYER FOR POTENTIAL IMPACTS.

>> STATES LIKE CALIFORNIA ARE ALREADY TAKING PRECAUTIONS AHEAD OF A SUPER EL NINO STORM.

GOVERN GAVIN NEWSOM DECLARED A STATE OF EMERGENCY.

CALIFORNIA IS NOT THE ONLY REGION IN THE COUNTRY THAT COULD BE AFFECTED.

>> HURRICANE IS INTENSIFYING OFF OF THE MEXICAN PACIFIC COAST TO A CATEGORY 5 STATUS.

EL NINO, A NATURAL CLIMATE PATTERN CONTRIBUTING TO WARMER THAN USUAL OCEAN WATERS.

>> WE ARE SEEING THE EASTERN SIDE WARMING UP TO AN UNUSUAL EXTENT.

>> THE STRONGER AN EL NINO IS THE MORE LIKELY IT IS TO INFLUENCE WEATHER PATTERNS LIKE AN ACTIVE PACIFIC HURRICANE SEASON OR LESS ACTIVE ATLANTIC HURRICANE SEASON.

>> WE WOULD SEE ABOVE AVERAGE PRECIPITATION.

THAT COULD LEAD TO FLOODING.

ALSO ALONG THE EAST COAST THERE IS A CHANCE FOR GETTING GOOD NOR'EASTERS.

>> CALIFORNIA HAS SEEN SEA LEVELS RISE.

EL NINO COULD WORSEN THE IMPACTS.

>> THEY ARE IN BIG TROUBLE.

>> COMBINED WITH FOSSIL FUEL DRIVEN WARMING COULD BRING EXTREME HEAT TO OTHER PARTS OF THE WORLD.

NEARLY A HALF MILLION HEAT DEATHS BY FEBRUARY DUE TO EL NINO DRIVEN EXTREME HEAT.

>> THE ODDS WE WILL SEE, UNUSUAL WEATHER.

>> WINTERS WHEN EL NINO IS FORECAST TO HIT THE PEAK STRENGTH AND WHEN THE IMPACT ON GLOBAL WEATHER IS MOST PRONOUNCED.
