ANNOUNCER:From NBC News in Washington, the longest-running show in television history, this is Meet the Press with Kristen Welker. And I think that's something that isn't fully contemplated or considered when people talk about deficit numbers. KRISTEN WELKER:We learned this week that sentencing will be scheduled for President-elect Trump in that hush money case. President-elect Trump has conveyed to the new House speaker he wants to get border, taxes, trade done all in one big bill. He's not going to be taking questions from the press in a press conference, as far as we know so far –JONATHAN MARTIN:Which is extraordinary.

BEAUMONT, Texas — Shamsud-Din Jabbar’s high school friends knew him as “Sham” — a good student with a quiet disposition and a bright future. “It’s a complete surprise, a shock, to everyone,” Jabbar’s half-brother, Abdur-Rahim Jabbar IV, 24, said in an interview. “He was very grounded, reserved, quiet,” said Chris Pousson, who attended middle school and high school with Jabbar. Courtesy Abdur-Rahim Jabbar IVAfter he graduated in 2001, Jabbar sought to serve his country. “It set him straight,” Abdur-Rahim Jabbar said, referring to a period after high school when Jabbar was partying and had some minor run-ins with the law.

The terrorist behind the deadly New Year’s attack in New Orleans posted videos online proclaiming his support for the Islamic State terror group before he rammed his truck into a crowd of people on Bourbon Street, killing at least 14, the FBI said Thursday. It was premeditated and an evil act,” Raia said, adding that Jabbar acted alone. “He was 100 percent inspired by ISIS.”Investigators believe Jabbar, an Army veteran, picked up his rented white Ford truck in Houston on Dec. 30 and then headed for New Orleans the next evening. Police investigators surround a white truck that crashed into a work lift in the French Quarter of New Orleans on Wednesday. Jabbar died in a gunfight with police officers, officials said.
