♪ > TONIGHT ON PBS NEWS WEEKEND, A MASSIVE MANHUNT IS UNDERWAY FOR THE SUSPECT IN THE ASSASSINATION OF A MINNESOTA LAWMAKER AND A WOUNDING OF ANOTHER.

THEN ISRAEL AND IRAN LAUNCH NEW ROUNDS OF DUDLEY STRIKES -- DEADLY STRIKES AS THE CONFLICT RAGES INTO A THIRD DAY.

WE MEET A TEENAGE RISING STAR IN THE WORLD OF GOLF HEADED TO AUSTRALIA TO COMPETE.

>> IT'S A VERY STRATEGIC GAME AND I REALLY LIKED PLAYING AND WATCHING THINGS THAT REQUIRES BRAINPOWER WHEN IT COMES TO MAKING DECISIONS.

SO, THE STUDENT PART OF THE GAME IS MY FAVORITE PART.

>> GOOD EVENING.

I AM JOHN YANG.

ONCE AGAIN TONIGHT WE ARE TRACKING TWO BIG STORIES.

IN THE MIDDLE EAST, ISRAEL IS BROADENING THE ATTACKS ON IRAN BUT WE START A MINNESOTA WHERE THE HUNT GOES ON FOR THE 57-YEAR-OLD MAN WHO ALLEGEDLY KILLED STATE REPRESENTATIVE MELISSA HORTON AND HER HUSBAND.

POLICE BELIEVE THAT THE GUNMAN SHOT AND WOUNDED STATE SENATOR JOHN HOFFMAN AND HIS WIFE EVETTE.

A FAMILY MEMBER SAID BOTH OUR WAY TO RECOVER.

THEY SEARCH RESIDENCES SOUTHWEST OF MINNEAPOLIS AFTER FINDING THE SUSPECTS CAR.

AUTHORITIES TOLD RESIDENTS TO KEEP THEIR DOORS AND CARS LIKE.

SENATOR AMY KLOBUCHAR, SENATOR I WANT TO TELL YOU HOW SORRY YOU ARE THAT YOU HAVE LOST A COLLEAGUE AND A FRIEND I KNOW.

>> THANKS SO MUCH, JOHN.

TO SOMEONE THAT YOUR VIEWERS WOULD'VE LOVED TO BEEP, MANY IN MINNESOTA LOVED HER, DEMOCRATS REPUBLICANS, SOMEONE WHO STARTS OUT WITH A MOM OF LITTLE KIDS RUNNING FOR THE LEGISLATURE, DOOR KNOCKING EVERY DOOR IN HER DISTRICT AND JUGGLES ALL OF IT, CHURCH, A SUNDAY SCHOOL LEADER FROM GIRL SCOUT LEADER TO WORKING HER WAY UP THE LADDER AND BECOMING THE SPEAKER OF THE HOUSE.

A JOB WHICH SHE WAS INCREDIBLE AT.

SHE WOULD BE ABLE TO GET THINGS DONE ACROSS THE AISLE LIKE THE BUDGET WITH THE TIED LEGISLATURE AND SOME LANDMARK LEGISLATION FROM PRESCHOOL LUNCH TO PAID FAMILY LEAVE.

A VERY PROGRESSIVE POLICY.

SO, SHE WAS A LEADER, AND HER GRACE, OR DECENCY IS SOMETHING WE ARE ALL GOING TO MISS.

AND FOR ME JUST LOSING A FRIEND LIKE THIS TO VIOLENCE AND POLITICAL VIOLENCE MAKES YOU REALIZE THAT THIS IS NOT JUST A STATISTIC.

THIS IS NOT JUST SOMETHING WE TALK ABOUT AT COMMITTEE HEARINGS.

THIS HAPPENS.

JOHN: YOU TALKED ABOUT HER TENURE AS SPEAKER.

THIS MORNING I READ A FORMER REPUBLICAN COLLEAGUE OF HERS SAID THAT SHE'S INDISPUTABLY THE MOST CONSEQUENTIAL SPEAKER OF THE HOUSE IN MINNESOTA HISTORY.

WHAT MADE HER SO EFFECTIVE?

SEN. KLOBUCHAR: I STARTED OUT WITH A PERSONAL BECAUSE I THINK IT MADE HER AFFECT HER.

SHE WAS JUGGLING ALL HER STUFF WORKING AT HER DAD'S AUTO PARTS STORE WHILE DOING ALL THESE OTHER THINGS IN THE COMMUNITY AND SHE WAS ABLE TO HOLD IT ALL TOGETHER AND JUGGLE.

WHEN YOU ARE SPEAKER AND YOU HAVE GOT MEMBERS THAT WANT ALL KINDS OF DIFFERENT THINGS, YOU HAVE GOT TO BA ABLE TO DO A LOT OF THAT.

SHE ALSO PUT THE MISSION FIRST HEARD SHE KNEW WHY SHE WAS THERE, SHE WAS GROUNDED IN THE COMMUNITY.

I WAS NOT SURE SHE WAS THINKING, I WANT TO RUN FOR THIS OR THAT.

SHE JUST DID HER JOB.

AND ALL OF THAT MADE HER LOVED BY THE OTHER LEGISLATORS ON BOTH SIDES OF THE AISLE.

JOHN: THE MANIFESTO OF THE WHAT WAS FOD IN THE GUNMAN'S CAR HAD A LIST OF NAMES, INCLUDING YOURS.

DO YOU FEEL SAFE?

SEN. KLOBUCHAR: YOU KNOW, WE HAVE ADDED SECURITY.

THAT SENATOR SCHUMER AND SENATOR THUNE CALLED ME YESTERDAY.

THEY HAVE BEEN GREAT ABOUT IT.

BUT I HAVE TO SAY I DO FEEL SAFE BECAUSE I'M MORE WORRIED ABOUT MY CONSTITUENTS BECAUSE WE HAVE, I HAVE NO IDEA WHERE THIS GUY IS.

LAW ENFORCEMENT FOUND A SECOND CAR.

PEOPLE HAVE BEEN FOLLOWING WHAT LAW ENFORCEMENT TELLS THEM TO DO BECAUSE THIS IS A MAJOR MANHUNT.

AND HE IS SOMEONE THAT IS SMART.

ONE OF THE MOST CHILLING PHOTOS IS THE PHOTO FROM A DOORBELL CAMERA.

BEFORE HE KILLED MY FRIEND HE HAD A MASK ON.

SO THAT, HE KNEW HE MIGHT BE PICKED UP BY A CAMERA.

THAT IS WHY THEY PUT THAT PICT URE OUT THERE AS WELL AS PICTURES OF HIS FACE.

THERE IS A LOT OF FEAR IN GENERAL AROUND HERE BUT YES, I DO FEEL SAFE.

I KNOW THREATS ON ELECTED OFFICIALS HAVE GONE FROM MEMBERS OF CONGRESS, 1600 IN 2016 TO OVER 9,000 LAST YEAR.

THREATS AGAINST JUDGES, APPOINTED BY DEMOCRATS AND REPUBLICANS, HAVE ESCALATED GREATLY.

SO THIS IS A VERY BAD ENVIRONMENT.

AND WE NEED TO BRING THE TONE DOWN AND ELECTED OFFICIALS WHO ARE BASICALLY THROWING FUEL ONTO THE FIRE SHOULD BE LOOKING IN THE MIRROR RIGHT NOW.

JOHN: SENATOR, WHAT IS THE LATEST YOU'VE HEARD ABOUT THE CONDITION OF THE WOUNDED STATE SENATOR JOHN HOFFMAN AND HIS WIFE?

SEN. KLOBUCHAR: BY THE WAY, ALSO AN INCREDIBLE LEADER, GOT INTO POLITICS BECAUSE IT -- HIS DAUGHTER HAS SPINA BIFIDA.

I JUST GOT A TEXT ABOUT AN HOUR AGO FROM HIS WIFE, BECAUSE SHE HAS COME OUT OF SURGERY.

AND SHE IS DOING PRETTY WELL BY ALL ACCOUNTS.

AND I JUST SAID, CALL OR WRITE WHENEVER YOU CAN AND SHE WROTE ME AND SHE SAID, WHYY DON'T YOU SHARE THE STATEMENT?

SHE SAID "THANK YOU SO MUCH, SENATOR.

OUR FAMILY IS SO HUMBLED BY THE LOVE AND OUTPOURING WE HAVE RECEIVED FROM EVERYONE.

JOHN IS ENDURING MANY SURGERIES RIGHT NOW AND IS CLOSER EVERY HOUR TO BEING OUT OF THE WOODS.

HE TOOK NINE BULLET HITS.

I TOOK EIGHT, AND WE ARE BOTH INCREDIBLY LUCKY TO BE ALIVE.

WE ARE GUTTED AND DEVASTATED BY THE LOSS OF MELISSA AND MARK.

THERE IS NEVER A PLACE FOR THIS KIND OF POLITICAL HATE.

THANK YOU FOR YOUR FRIENDSHIP.

MINNESOTANS ARE AT OUR VERY BEST WHEN WE STAND TOGETHER."

JOHN: WE WISH THE HOFFMAN IS THE BEST AND SENATOR CONDOLENCES TO YOU ONCE AGAIN AND THANK YOU FOR JOINING US.

SEN. KLOBUCHAR: GREAT TO BE ON.

THANK YOU.

JOHN: NOW TO THE MIDDLE EAST WHERE ISRAEL AND IRAN EXCHANGED AIRSTRIKES AND MISSILE BARRAGES FOR A THIRD DAY.

ISRAEL STRUCK TWO OIL REFINERIES AS IT WIDENS ITS LIST BE YONG AND MILITARY IN NUCLEAR FACILITIES.

A HUMAN RIGHTS GROUP SAYS ISRAEL 'S STRIKES HAVE KILLED 406 PEOPLE AND WOUNDED ANOTHER 654.

IRAN LAUNCHED MORE MISSILES INTO ISRAEL.

OUTSIDE TEL AVIV OVER THIS MORNING, RESCUE TEAM SEARCHED FOR SURVIVORS IN THE RUBBLE OF AN APARTMENT BUILDING.

TEN PEOPLE IN ISRAEL HAVE BEEN KILLED OVERNIGHT.

BRINGING THE DEATH TOLL THERE TO 13.

JOSEPH FETTERMAN IS THE ASSOCIATED PRESS NEWS DIRECTOR FOR ISRAEL JORDAN AND THE PALESTINIAN TERRITORIES.

JOE, WHAT IS THE LATEST ON WHAT IS GOING ON ON THE GROUND IN ISRAEL NOW?

JOE: THIS MILITARY OPERATION IS CONTINUING.

ISRAEL'S CONTINUED TO STRIKE TARGETS IN IRAN, SO THAT MEANS WE ARE SEEING REPEATED BARRAGES OF MISSILE FIRE.

IN FACT, JUST OVER AN HOUR AGO WE HAD ANOTHER MISSILE ATTACK.

NOTHING LANDED HERE IN JERUSALEM.

THIS TIME THE MISSILES FELL IN NORTHERN ISRAEL BUT THESE ALERTS ARE AFFECTING THE ENTIRE COUNTRY.

OFTENTIMES, WE CAN LOOK UP IN THE SKY AND YOU CAN SEE THINGS FLYING OVERHEAD.

SO WE ARE SEEING IT ACROSS THE COUNTRY.

JOHN: THIS IS NATIONWIDE.

THIS IS NOT CONCENTRATED IN ANY PARTICULAR PART OF THE NATION?

JOE: NO, THE ALERTS ARE GOING OFF ACROSS THE COUNTRY.

WE HAVE GONE THROUGH THREE DRILLS IN THE PAST 24 HOURS.

WHERE THE LANDINGS HAVE BEEN ACROSS THE COUNTRY, WE HAVE SEEN THEM AND TEL AVIV.

IN NORTHERN ISRAEL.

AND EVEN SOUTH OF TEL AVIV AS WELL.

NOTHING SO FAR HAS LANDED IN JERUSALEM.

BUT YOU DO FEEL IT.

YOU SEE INTERCEPTIONS OVERHEAD.

YOU HEAR THE THUNDER, THE BLOOMING, SORT OF LIKE A BASS DRUM OR THUNDER IN THE DISTANCE BECAUSE EVERYTHING IS RELATIVELY CLOSE.

JOHN: HELP US UNDERSTAND WHAT IT IS LIKE TO LIVE WITH THIS THREAT LOOMING OVER YOU.

JOE: IT IS VERY DISRUPTIVE.

YOU CAN FEEL IT REALLY EVERYWHERE YOU GO.

THE OTHER NIGHT I WAS ON THE FIRST NIGHT OF THE FIGHTING, I WAS DRIVING HOME FROM THE OFFICE AND IT REMINDED ME OF THOSE EARLY DAYS OF COVID, THE ROADS WERE COMPLETELY EMPTY.

REALLY EMPTY.

THINGS HAVE COME ALIVE JUST A LITTLE BIT BUT THE VOLUME, THE NUMBER OF PEOPLE YOU SEE ON THE STREET IS MINIMUM.

MANY OF THE STORES ARE CLOSED OR CLOSING EARLY.

SCHOOLS ARE ONLY LEARNING OVER ZOOM RIGHT NOW.

REALLY JUST DISRUPTING LIFE ACROSS THE COUNTRY.

IT AFFECTS PEOPLE'S MOODS.

PEOPLE ARE TENSE.

THEY ARE WORRIED AND THEY DO NOT KNOW WHERE THIS IS HEADED.

JOHN: OVER THE PAST 25 YEARS ISRAELIS HAVE DEALT WITH SUICIDE BOMBERS, ROCKETS FROM LEBANON, ROCKETS FROM GAZA.

DO YOU HAVE A SENSE OF HOW PEOPLE ARE REACTING IN COMPARISON, HOW IT COMPARES TO OTHER THINGS?

JOE: IT IS ALWAYS HARD TO COMPARE.

EACH ONE IS UNIQUE AND EACH ONE HAS ITS OWN CHALLENGES.

THIS ONE IS DEATH BECAUSE THE TYPES OF WEAPONS BEING FIRED HERE, THESE MISSILES ARE HUGE.

THE PRIME MINISTER COMPARED THEM TO FLYING BUSES.

AND THEY ARE SENDING A BARRAGES, DOZENS OF THEM AT THE SAME TIME.

WHAT MAKES THIS CONFLICT DIFFERENT COMPARED TO THE OTHER ONES YOU MENTIONED IS THAT ISRAEL DOES HAVE THAT AIR DEFENSE SYSTEM.

YOU PROBABLY HEARD ABOUT THE IRON DOME AND OTHER SYSTEMS THEY USE TO INTERCEPT THESE MISSILES.

THAT DOES GIVE YOU SOME SENSE OF PERSONAL SECURITY, BUT THE SYSTEM IS NOT 100%.

AND WHEN DOZENS AND DOZENS OF THESE MISSILES ARE COMING, IT IS ALMOST INEVITABLE THAT SOMETHING IS GOING TO GET THROUGH.

JUST THAT FEELING THAT IT IS SO RANDOM YOU DO NOT KNOW WHERE IT WILL COME DOWN.

YOU DO NOT KNOW IF YOU ARE 100% SAFE.

SO THIS TIME AROUND, JUST -- IT IS CHILLING LIKE THE OTHER ONES.

JOHN: THIS IS ON TOP OF A YEAR AND A HALF OF WAR IN GAZA.

WHAT IS THE PUBLIC SENTIMENT ABOUT THIS?

>> AFTER A YEAR AND A HALF OF CONFLICT AND BECAUSE OF THE COUNTRY HAS BECOME VERY DIVIDED OVER THIS.

A LARGE NUMBER OF PEOPLE WHO WANT TO SEE THAT WAR END.

THERE ARE HOSTAGES THAT REMAIN.

WE WANT TO SEE THE HOSTAGES COME HOME.

SO FAR THE PUBLIC, I'VE NOT SEEN OPINION POLLS YET.

ONLY A FEW DAYS INTO THIS BUT THE PUBLIC DOES SEEM TO BE WINDING UP BEHIND --ISRAEL'S OPPOSITION LEADER HAS COME OUT IN FAVOR.

IT IS REALLY A WIDESPREAD CONSENSUS IRAN IS SEEN AS THE BIGGEST THREAT, THE BIGGEST ENEMY TO ISRAEL.

THAT FEELING IS PRETTY WIDESPREAD.

SO EARLY ON AT LEAST, THE PUBLIC SEEMS TO BE BEHIND THIS, BUT WE'VE SEEN THIS MANY TIMES BEFORE.

OPERATION START UP CLEAN WITH LOTS OF SUPPORT.

THE LONGER THEY DRAG ON, THE MORE THINGS CAN GET MESSY AND THE MORE THE NATION CAN BECOME DIVIDED.

JOHN: JOSEPH FEDERMAN OF THE ASSOCIATED PRESS IN JERUSALEM.

STAY SAFE.

JOE: THANK YOU.

JOHN: THE ISRAELI-IRANIAN CONFLICT IS LIKELY TO BE A TOPIC AT THE G7 SUMMIT IN THE CANADIAN ROCKIES.

THEY ARE EXPECTED TO ISSUE A JOINT STATEMENT CALLING FOR BOTH SIDES TO DE-ESCALATE.

THE SUMMIT WHICH BEGINS MONDAY BRINGS TOGETHER THE HEADS OF THE WORLD'S LARGEST ECONOMIES TO DISCUSS INTERNATIONAL SECURITY AND GLOBAL ECONOMIC STABILITY.

SO PRESIDENT TRUMP'S TARIFFS ARE LIKELY TO BE DISCUSSED.

THE U.S. HAS LEVIED TARIFFS ON ALL OF THE OTHER NATIONS IN THE G7.

UKRAINE'S PRESIDENT CLAIMED A VICTORY IN HIS NATION'S WAR AGAINST RUSSIA.

PRESIDENT ZALESKI SAID UKRAINIAN FORCES RECAPTURED A VILLAGE ON THE BORDER WITH RUSSIA.

ZELINSKI SAID THE MISSION AS PART OF AN EFFORT TO REPEL RUSSIAN FORCES FROM THE AREA WHICH HAS SEEN HEAVY FIGHTING.

ORGANIZERS OF THE NO KINGS PROTEST SAID MILLIONS OF DEMONSTRATORS ATTENDED 1000 EVENTS NATIONWIDE.

THE SATURDAY PROTESTS WERE MOSTLY PEACEFUL AND PLACES STRETCHING FROM SAN FRANCISCO TO ALLSTON, FROM BOSTON TO PUERTO RICO.

DEMONSTRATORS MARCHED IN SUPPORT OF LGBTQ PLUS RIGHTS AND AGAINST THE TRUMP ADMINISTRATION'S DEPORTATION DRIVE.

IN LOS ANGELES, DEMONSTRATIONS BEGAN PEACEFULLY WITH THOUSANDS MARCHING THROUGH DOWNTOWN.

BUT TEAR GAS CANISTERS WERE FIRED.

AN MOUNTED PATROL TRIED TO BREAK UP CROWDS THAT POLICE SAID TRY TO DAMAGE FEDERAL BUILDINGS.

AS THOSE PROTESTS WERE GOING ON AND WASHINGTON, D.C., THE MILITARY PARADE CELEBRATING THE ARMIES 250TH BIRTHDAY WENT ON AS PLANNED.

TANKS ROLLED DOWN STREETS.

THE GOLDEN KNIGHTS PARACHUTED IN FROM THE SKIES AND THOUSANDS OF SOLDIERS MARCHED IN HISTORIC UNIFORMS TO SHOW THE EVOLUTION OF THE AMERICAN SOLDIER.

PRESIDENT TRUMP'S ARRIVAL AT THE PARADE WAS ACCOMPANIED BY A CELEBRATORY CANNON FIRE.

LATER THE -- HE ADMINISTER THE O2 SOLDIERS REENLISTING.

IN HIS REMARKS, HE HEAPED PRAISE ON THE ARMY.

>> DOWN THROUGH HISTORY WE HAVE BEEN BLESSED BEYOND WORDS BY THIS VALIANT LEGION OF ARMY WARRIORS AND PATRIOTS.

HEROES AND LEGENDS.

AND TONIGHT WE AFFIRM WITH UNWAVERING CERTAINTY THAT IN THE YEARS AHEAD, AND IN EVERY GENERATION HANDS, WHENEVER DUTY CALLS AND WHATEVER DANGER COMES, THE AMERICAN SOLDIER WILL BE THERE.

JOHN: ESTIMATES OF THE PARADES COST RANGE BETWEEN 25 AND $45 MILLION.

IT ALSO HAPPENED TO BE MR. TRUMP'S 79TH BIRTHDAY.

STILL TO PBS NEWS WEEK AND, HOW AMERICANS ARE FORTIFYING THEIR HOMES TO PREPARE FOR THE WORST.

AND WE MEET A NEW RISING STAR IN THE WORLD OF GOLF.

JOHN: BOMB SHELTERS, SECRET PASSAGEWAYS, GUN ROOMS MAY SOUND LIKE THE STUFF OF HOLLYWOOD BUT ACROSS THE COUNTRY THERE PART OF SOME PEOPLE'S PLANS TO PROTECT THEMSELVES AGAINST THE WORST.

ACCORDING TO A RECENT NEW YORK TIMES MAGAZINE REPORT THAT CHRONICLES THE RISE OF THE BLOOMING PANIC INDUSTRY.

WE SPOKE WITH A CONTRIBUTIVE PHOTO EDITOR FOR THE NEW YORK TIMES MAGAZINE.

>> THANK YOU SO MUCH FOR JOINING US.

WHAT IS BEHIND THE RISE IN PEOPLE WANTING TO PREP FOR SOME SORT OF DOOMSDAY SCENARIO?

>> SO, THE PEOPLE I SPOKE WITH SAID THERE IS A HUGE SURGE IN BUSINESS POST-PANDEMIC AND IN THE LEAD UP AND AFTERMATH OF THE RECENT ELECTION.

I WOULD SAY THAT MANY OF THE PEOPLE WHO ARE INTERESTED IN INSTALLING THESE TYPES OF HIDDEN GUN RANGES AND PANIC ROOMS AND THINGS LIKE THAT IN THEIR HOMES, MANY OF THEM SAID THAT THEY WERE AFRAID OF THINGS LIKE ANOTHER PANDEMIC, FINANCIAL COLLAPSE OR EVEN NUCLEAR WAR.

>> THE NOTION OF PREPPING HAS BEEN A FASCINATION ON THE POP CULTURE SCENE FOR A NUMBER OF YEARS.

HOW DO YOU DESCRIBE THIS KIND OF MAINSTREAMING OF THE PANIC INDUSTRY AND OF PREPARING IN THIS WAY?

>> I THINK THAT AS MORE AND MORE PEOPLE ARE IMPACTED BY THINGS LIKE PANDEMICS, BY CIVIL UNREST AND ACTIVISM IN THEIR CITIES, BY FINANCIAL COLLAPSE, THOSE FACTORS HIT A WIDER AND WIDER POPULATION, IT MAKES SENSE TO ME THAT MORE OF US WOULD BE INTERESTED IN THIS TYPE OF, WHAT CAN I DO IN THE EVENT OF A DOOMSDAY SCENARIO?

>> PEOPLE IN THE MIDDLE CLASS, YOU REPORT ON, ARE BECOMING MORE INTERESTED.

THESE COMPANIES ARE GETTING MORE CALLS FROM PEOPLE WHO DO NOT HAVE MILLIONS OF DOLLARS BUT THEY DO WANT TO INVEST IN SOME WAYS AS THEY SEE IT TO PROTECT THEMSELVES.

>> THAT IS COMPLETELY RIGHT.

SO, YOU KNOW, THERE ARE BUNKERS THAT ARE PREFAB AND MIGHT COST $20,000 INSTEAD OF $100,000 OR 10 MILLION DOLLARS.

ONE OF THE PEOPLE I SPOKE WITH SAID SOMETHING LIKE THE BUNKERS I'M SELLING ARE FOR PEOPLE WHO HAVE $20,000 TO SPEND, NOT $200,000.

THEY MAKE $60,000 AND DRIVE A CHEVY PICKUP TRUCK.

THEY DO NOT DRIVE A FERRARI OR FANCY CARS AND THINGS LIKE THAT.

>> WHAT DO WE KNOW ABOUT ANY CORRELATION BETWEEN THE AMOUNT OF MONEY YOU HAVE TO SPEND ON ONE OF THESE THINGS AND YOUR CHANCES OF ACTUALLY SURVIVING SOME SORT OF CATACLYSMIC EVENT?

>> AFTER SPEAKING WITH SEVERAL PEOPLE WHO ARE IN THIS INDUSTRY, I THINK THAT THERE ARE CERTAINLY SOME CLIENTS WHO ARE THINKING VERY ACTIVELY ABOUT EXACTLY HOW THEY WILL SURVIVE THE EVENTS.

THEY CALL IT THE DOOMSDAY EVENTS.

I THINK ALSO A LOT OF THEM ARE LIVING IN THE ANXIETY OF THE NOW RATHER THAN THE REALITY OF THE FUTURE IF THAT MAKES SENSE.

>> IT'S REALLY INTERESTING.

YOU'VE SEEN SOME VERY EXTRAVAGANT LENGTHS THAT PEOPLE ARE GOING TO.

I KNOW YOU ARE LIMITED IN WHAT YOU CAN DISCLOSE ABOUT SOME OF THEM, BUT DESCRIBE WHAT YOU SAW ON THE HIGHER END OF THIS INDUSTRY.

>> THERE IS A LOCATION THAT I CANNOT REVEAL BUT IT IS IN THE UPPER MIDWESTERN UNITED STATES WHERE AN INDIVIDUAL AND HIS FAMILY HAVE DECIDED TO BUILD A COMPOUND FOR THEMSELVES THAT IS A FORTIFIED HOME SURROUNDED BY A MOTE.

THAT MOTE CAN BE LIT ON FIRE BY THE HOMEOWNER.

THERE ARE CANONS ON THE PROPERTY THAT WILL DISTRIBUTE A FLAMMABLE LIQUID ACROSS THE SURFACE OF THE MOTE.

THERE IS ALSO A TUNNEL LEADING TO THE PROPERTY THAT ESSENTIALLY FUNCTIONS AS A GIANT MICROWAVE AND IT COULD HEAT UP AND IN THEORY STOP ANY UNWANTED INTRUDERS.

>> ARE THERE ANY IDEOLOGICAL SIMILARITIES THAT YOU PICKED UP AMONG THE PEOPLE INVESTING IN THESE MEASURES THAT WOULD INDICATE A SIMILAR SCHOOL OF THOUGHT ON, ON THE ANIMATING ISSUES LIKE CLIMATE CHANGE, LIKE THE ECONOMY, LIKE CIVIL UNREST?

>> I WOULD SAY THAT THE COMMONALITY IS THAT THEY ARE ALL DRIVEN BY A VERY STRONG NEED FOR PEACE OF MIND.

THERE ARE CERTAINLY PEOPLE WHO DID SAY THAT CLIMATE CHANGE IS A CONCERN BUT WHEN IT COMES TO THINKING ABOUT CLIMATE CHANGE, IT'S NOT NECESSARILY THAT THEY ARE SOMEONE WHO BELIEVES IN CLIMATE CHANGE AS A HOLISTIC CONCEPT.

IT IS MORE THAT THEY HAVE NOTICED THAT THERE ARE MORE TORNADOES IN THEIR AREAS OR MORE EXTREME WEATHER, AND I THINK THAT FINANCIAL COLLAPSE CERTAINLY, ESPECIALLY FOR SOME OF THE WEALTHIER CLIENTS, THAT IS SOMETHING THEY -- TOP OF MIND.

THE PANDEMIC REALLY IMPACTED PEOPLE FROM ALL INCOME LEVELS.

THE COMMONALITY OF THAT EXPERIENCE WAS SOMETHING THAT IS BROADENING THE MARKET, I WOULD SAY.

AND KIND OF LEADING AT LEAST IN PART TWO -- TO A SURGE IN BUSINESS.

>> A FASCINATING STORY.

THANK YOU SO MUCH.

>> THANK YOU SO MUCH FOR HAVING ME.

OHN: FINALLY TONIGHT, MOST HIGH SCHOOLERS SPEND THEIR SUMMER VACATIONS HANGING OUT WITH FRIENDS.

BUT NOT GENESIS LEWIS.

SHE IS SPENDING HER IS GEARING UP FOR AN INTERNATIONAL GOLF COMPETITION.

THE NORTH CAROLINA RISING SENIOR WILL BE ON A U.S.

JUNIOR GOLF TEAM SELECTED BY COAST TO COAST INTERNATIONAL ATHLETICS TO COMPETE IN AUSTRALIA.

SHE'S TAKING A BREAK FROM THE DRIVING RANGE TO JOIN US NOW.

GENESIS, HOW LONG OF YOU BEEN PLAYING?

>> SINCE I WAS FOUR AND COMPETING AT SEVEN, PROBABLY ABOUT 10 YEARS.

JOHN: HOW DID YOU GET STARTED?

>> MY DAD WOULD TAKE ME TO THE GOLF COURSE AND THE DRIVING RANGE.

JOHN: AND WHAT IS IT ABOUT GOLF THAT YOU LIKE, WHAT APPEALS TO YOU?

>> I REALLY LIKE PLAYING AND WATCHING THINGS THAT ARE -- THAT REQUIRES BRAINPOWER WHEN IT COMES TO MAKING DECISIONS OR TRYING TO DISCOVER SOMETHING.

SO THE STRATEGIC PART OF THE GAME IS MY FAVORITE PART.

JOHN: AND HISTORY OF THE LPGA THERE HAVE ONLY BEEN EIGHT BLACK MEMBERS.

I WONDER WHAT IT'S LIKE GROWING UP PLAYING THIS GAME AND NOT SEEING A LOT OF PLAYERS WHO LOOK LIKE YOU.

>> IT WAS VERY TRICKY, BECAUSE WHEN I WAS YOUNGER, I WOULD TRY TO MAKE FRIENDS ON THE GOLF COURSE AND A LOT OF THEM DID NOT REALLY TRY TO BE FRIENDS WITH ME.

THEY WOULD BE FRIENDS WITH EACH OTHER.

ESPECIALLY WHEN I STARTED GETTING BETTER AT THE GAME.

AND STARTED TO IMPROVE MORE.

THEY DISTANCED HIMSELF A WAY FOR ME.

SO THAT WAS A BIG DRAWBACK FOR ME.

BUT AS I GOT OLDER, I REALIZED THAT NO MATTER WHAT YOU HAVE TO FOCUS ON YOURSELF.

AND I GOT TO A POINT WHERE I ALMOST JUST DECIDED TO PLAY FOR FUN AND THEN MY DAD LET ME JOIN THE GOLF ASSOCIATION WHICH IS WHERE THEY ENCOURAGE OTHER BLACK YOUNG WOMEN IN GOLF, HELP THEM OUT, GIVE THEM THAT SISTERHOOD.

AND ALONG WITH THAT, SEEING MORE BLACK INDIVIDUALS LIKE OURSELVES ON THE GOLF COURSE.

JOHN: TWIGS IS TRIANGLE WOMEN IN GOLF AND YOU LIVE IN THE RESEARCH TRIANGLE IN NORTH CAROLINA.

TALK ABOUT WHAT YOU GOT FROM THE MEMBERS IN THE GROUP.

>> I GOT NETWORKING SKILLS.

NOT ONLY THAT, MEETING OTHERS, MENTORS.

THEY ALSO HAVE BIG SISTERS TO HELP OUT YOUNGER SISTERS, THE YOUNGER KIDS, HELP OUT WITH GOLF.

BEING THAT OLDER SISTER THAT THEY PROBABLY NEVER HAD.

AND ALONG WITH THAT WE ALSO STARTED LEARNING SOME OTHER GOLF SKILLS THAT HELP US ENHANCE OUR GAME.

JOHN: ARE YOU NOW MENTORING YOUNG PEOPLE, PASSING ALONG WHAT YOU GOT FROM THE OTHER MEMBERS WHEN YOU WERE YOUNGER?

>> YES, I'M MENTORING ONE GIRL THE PAST TWO YEARS NOW.

JOHN: AND TALK ABOUT THAT.

IS IT REWARDING, DOES IT MAKE YOU FEEL GOOD?

>> IT MAKES ME FEEL GOOD BUT ALSO I SEE MYSELF IN HER AS WELL.

BECAUSE SO MANY THINGS YOU MAY NOT EXPERIENCE THE SAME THINGS I WENT THROUGH BUT BECAUSE I HAVE BEEN THROUGH SO MUCH, I KNOW WHERE TO STOP AND WHERE I DO NOT WANT HER TO EXPERIENCE THE THINGS I EXPERIENCED.

I AM OVERSIGHTING HER NOT ONLY WITH GOLF BUT ALSO AS A PERSON.

SO THAT GIVES ME, AN OLDER SIBLING BECAUSE I'M AN ONLY CHILD.

JOHN: I KNOW YOU'RE HEADED OFF TO AUSTRALIA FOR A TOURNAMENT.

TELL US ABOUT THAT.

>> YES, SO, ON JULY 5, I WILL BE FLYING TO AUSTRALIA AND I WILL STAYING THERE FOR ABOUT TWO WEEKS.

AND WE WE WILL BE PRACTICING ON A TEAM TO PLAY ON THE JUNIOR TEAM AS WELL.

JOHN: THIS IS NOT YOUR FIRST TIME PLAYING IN AUSTRALIA, IS THAT RIGHT?

>> YES.

THE FIRST TIME PLAYING IN AUSTRALIA AND WENT -- IS WHEN I ONE IN THIRD GRADE AT THE AGE OF EIGHT.

I WON THE TOUR CHAMPION.

JOHN: WHAT IS AHEAD.

I KNOW YOU'RE ON THE HIGH SCHOOL TEAM.

WOULD YOU LIKE TO PLAY GOLF IN COLLEGE?

>> YES, I WOULD LIKE TO PLAY GOLF IN COLLEGE.

AND BECOME AN LPGA GOLFER.

JOHN: I'VE SEEN YOUR NAME ON RECRUITING WEBPAGES, I WONDER IF COLLEGES ARE TALKING TO.

>> YES, COLLEGES ARE STILL TALKING TO ME AND I HAVE NOT MADE MY FINAL DECISION.

JOHN: GOOD LUCK IN AUSTRALIA.

IN GENESIS, THANK YOU SO MUCH FOR YOUR TIME.

>> THANK YOU FOR HAVING ME.

JOHN: AND THAT IS PBS NEWS WEEKEND FOR THIS SUNDAY.

I AM JOHN YANG.

FOR ALL OF MY COLLEAGUES, THANKS FOR JOINING US.

HAPPY FATHER'S DAY AND HAVE A GOOD WEEK.
