Opening arguments scheduled for tomorrow its a day of strategizing for the president s legal team and the democrats who will present the case against him nbcs Geoff Bennett joins us this morning from the white house. Good morning to you. Reporter craig, sheinelle, good morning to you. Opening arguments in the Senate Impeachment trial are set to begin tomorrow and new legal filings for this trial offer a preview of what to expect the president s defense team, claiming democrats are trying to overturn the results of the 2016 election democrats arguing the president s conduct regarding ukraine is the founders worst nightmare. All of it set to unfold soon on the senate floor this morning, House Democrats and the white house are preparing to spar on the senate floor, with opening arguments in the president s impeachment trial expected to kick off tomorrow President Trump on the attack. By these radical left lunatics, i get impeached. Reporter the house impeachment managers huddlin on capitol hill this weekend, planning and strategizing how they will prosecute the case against President Trump. The democrats, as required by the rules, releasing their outline for the case writing in part, that President Trump abandoned his oath t faithfully execute the laws and betrayed his public trust. President trumps misconduct presents a danger to our democratic processes, our national security, and our commitment to the rule of law. He must be removed from office theres ample evidence, overwhelming evidence. Any jury would convict in three minutes flat reporter mr. Trumps impeachment legal team pushing back, calling the democrats case fatally flawed and brazen and unlawful one of the president s trial attorneys, alan dershowitz, offering a preview of the defense, arguing the president shouldnt be impeached, even if the house managers prove their case for obstruction of power. Level of Impeachable Offense reporter its unfolding as a new book by Washington Post reporters paints a fuller picture of the Trump Presidency at this Pivotal Moment this is a president who puts his own interests, often above the country, according to many of the senior aides we interviewed. He will lash out at his aides and do whatever it takes publicly to do whatever it takes to survive politically and thats what well probably see in impeachment so, geoff, the opening arguments, set for tomorrow. Whats the latest on the debate over what the trial rules will look like . What do we know . Reporter well, the rules that will govern the senate trial, including how many hours a day it will last and when witnesses will be called, all of that, craig, is expected to be made public tomorrow thats when the senate votes on the rules resolution that kicks off the process. The big question still is about the witnesses. Democrats want to introduce new witnesses and documents to make their case that information was previously blocked by the white house some republican senators said they would be open to that, but only after both sides make their case, craig. Geoff bennett from the white house, thank you the meantime, the First Contact in the president ial race is two weeks from today. Youre speaking to a candidate thats looking past iowa were talking about former new york city mayor, Michael Bloomberg, the different kind of candidate. The last democrat to enter, selffunded. Staking everything essentially on super tuesday we met mayor bloomberg in tulsa, oklahoma, sunday, where he was giving a major speech on race. We talked about that and the state of his campaign. Reporter this morning, Michael Bloomberg hoping to win over black voters. My story would have turned out very differently if i had been black reporter speaking out against racial inequality on sunday, the candidate proposing a 70 billion investment in the nations most disadvantaged communities. This seems to be a fairly consequential speech on race hope so thats what i meant it to be reporter why give it now trying to address societys problems and say what i would do if i were elected president. One of the problems we have is discrimination i think that some of the president s rhetoric encourages or frees people to do things that they otherwise might not do and maybe wouldnt have thought about. Reporter just weeks before announcing his president ial run, bloomberg apologized for socalled stopandfrisk policing used when he was mayor. That led to the disproportionate questioning and searches of blacks and latinos to those who would say that the timing of this change of heart, and the speech today, that the timing is convenient now, youre running for president. Now, people ask me about it when i wasnt running for president , i cant tell you that many people came up to me and said, i want to talk about any of the things im working on reporter were a few hours away from the start of the president s impeachment trial. How would you advise senators who are going to decide the president s fate we would be much better off letting the Voters Decide who is president in this country. I was asked if i were a senator how would i vote i would have to swallow two or three times. But i say i would vote to impeach vote to conflict. Theres just so much evidence that he acted inappropriately. Reporter you said the president is dangerous to our democracy. Recently, i said that reporter you are prepared to spend hundreds of millions of dollars to defeat him. How much of this is personal for you . I dont have this burning desire from the day i was born to be president of the United States what i have is a desire to do something for the country and for the city, when i ran it, because ive got kids and i want to leave them a better world reporter what makes donald trump so dangerous in your mind . I think it is that he is so impetuous and erratic. Reporter lets talk about your Campaign Strategy for a moment a lot of folks find it surprising youre going to skip the first four states. I didnt have any choice. Reporter well, i mean, you could have gotten in earlier yeah. I had made a decision not to run, based on that there were a number of candidates, some of whom i liked and i watched as a lot of people i liked dropped out slowly over time and those remaining had ideas that i did not think were practical. And i looked and i didnt think any of them could beat donald trump. Some, in fact, would almost guarantee his reelection. Reporter you didnt think joe biden could beat donald trump. Im not going to mention any names. Reporter you didnt think any of them. Any of them, i guess that includes everybody thats probably good english youre right reporter what makes you think you can . Know him better than anybody else i would be more acceptable, i think, to the middleoftheroad republicans, who dont like him but do want somebody fiscally responsible. So, its that. Its knowing how to deal with him. Its being tough enough to deal with him, at a practical level reporter but as bloomberg sets his sights on the white house, his company and its past settlements with former employees have mae made recent headlines. Your company had to settle, as i understand it. Your company had to settle a number i would think its fair to say, almost no Company Reporter you dont know what im going to ask i do know what youre doing and going to ask and almost no company has the record we have reporter Sexual Harassment claims so few. We take it seriously we investigate every claim thats credible immediately. We cut right to the chase and do what has to be done. Reporter senator warren, as you know, has said she has nothing else to talk about. Come on. Reporter she has said that you should allow these women to speak out. Its not up to me we made legal agreements and were going to enforce those thats not to say they cant speak out. Ive encouraged women who work for us to speak about what they think is right or wrong. And mayor bloomberg said, on impeachment, he was not certain that this was something that was going to help democrats politically. In fact, he thinks it will ultimately help the president s base he denied this report from a few days ago, that he was open to spending up to 1 billion of his own money. When i asked him about spending an estimated 200 million on ads alone what did he say stood by it and he said, to get your message out, you need repetition i used to work in tulsa a lot of people arent as familiar with bloomberg in the midwest. What was your takeaway hes acutely familiar that people are not familiar with him outside of new york city hes trying to get out and meet people today, hes in arkansas, spending time in every other state, other than the first four of the primary contest to be continued now, to the breaking news overnight. A mass shooting at a crowded nightclub in kansas city, missouri kathy park is here with the latest with that good morning on a day when the city was celebrating a trip to the super bowl, police had to respond to a deadly shooting overnight.

So far, police say they have no motive we dont know if there was a specific person targeted or disturbance. Were investigating what led up to this. Reporter Officials Say the gun violence casting a dark cloud over the citys celebration. Its hard to see and hear and talk about this kind of tragedy on really one of the best days kansas city has had in a long time as officials move forward with their investigation, theyre asking witnesses to come forward with cell phone videos they may have captured when they were on the scene. As you can imagine, it was a chaotic scene, as witnesses were trying to find safety. Its a shame. Thank you goodness to that Security Guard kathy, thank you.

Reporter President Trump weighing in, your Second Amendment is under very serious attack thats what happens when you vote for democrats they will take your guns away. Charlottesville was terrifying and a wakeup call. Reporter rabbi michael noff is among those hoping this rally does not bring violence. Its terrifying and saddening. But in some sense not surprising because weve seen a rise in all of those forms of hatred reporter this is lobby day at the State Capitol it happens every year on Martin Luther king day.

Lets get a check of your 7 30 headlines on this monday morning. Opening arguments expected to get under way tomorrow in president Donald Trumps impeachment trial. The impeachment managers huddled on the hill over the weekend, planning and strategizing how they will prosecute the case against the president. Mr. Trumps legal team is calling the democrats case, quote, fatally flawed, brazen, and unlawful they contend the president should have never been impeached in the first place now, to the chaotic scene in honolulu on sunday Officials Say a man with runins history with police was facing eviction when he stabbed his landlord he shot and killed Police Officers responding to the scene.

No. If al roker were here, he would have an elephant pun i decided not to do that. We talked about the steam behind us before. Everything is okay looks like it might be your hair. Nothing is on fire. Also this morning, prince harry, shedding new light on he and Meghan Markles decision to step back from royal life. In an emotional speech, his first since the split, he detailed while he is making the move, hes certain its the right call todays Senior Correspondent is at Buckingham Palace. Good morning to you, keir. Reporter good morning. Prince harry is out on engagements in london as if nothing has changed. But over the weekend, it was seismic change inside that palace prince harry was forced to choose between working for the royal family and doing private work in the end, harry and meghan chose freedom, but at a high cost for him and the royal family prince harrys explosive, personal statement, delivered at a Charity Event. I want you to hear the truth from me, as much as i can share. Not as a prince, or a duke, but as harry reporter the weekends announcements that harry and meghan will step back from all duties was not his choice, he says after their fairy tale wedding, just over two years ago, they had hoped to serve the queen once meghan and i were married, we were excited we were hopeful, and we were here to serve. For those reasons, it brings me Great Sadness that it has come to this. Reporter saturdays announcement that they would no longer use their royal titles, or formally represent the monorahr monarch, was not what they wanted. Our hope was to continue to serve the queen, the commonwealth and my military associations but without public funding. Unfortunately, that wasnt possible ive accepted this, knowing that it doesnt change who i am, or how committed i am reporter harry, asking people to understand why i would step my family back from all i have ever known, to take a step forward into what i hope can be a more peaceful life i was born into this life, and it is a great honor to serve my country and the queen. Reporter in her statement, her majesty saying, harry, meghan and archie will be muchloved members of my family. While harry and meghan, vowing to uphold the values of her majesty. But one fear, royal experts say, was moments like this. New footage emerging of prince harry asking a hollywood director to hire meghan. We will make ourselves available. Thats really why were here. Reporter harry, clearly blaming the media for making it impossible to combine royal and private work the media is a powerful force. Reporter while thanking his friends at last nights Charity Event for their support. We are taking a leap of faith. So, thank you for giving me the courage to take this next step reporter royal officials tell me harry and meghan will now spend most of their time in north america, and that the whole arrangement could be reviewed in a years time. It seems unlikely theyll return to working for the queen inside the palace there it is a huge blow to the royal family harry and meghan are international stars. In a sense, there is no royal couple quite like them perhaps that is the reason why they felt like they had to leave royal work and set off on their own adventure. Guys keir, thank you lets bring in victoria arbiter, royal commentator victoria, thank you. Harry said on sunday, it brought him Great Sadness, this new arrangement. And also, it became obvious this was not their idea this was the queens idea. How did the arrangement come about . Ten days ago, harry and meghans announcement that they planned to carve out a new progressive role in the monarchy this is an ancient institution that is founded on tradition and precedent. As much as it has adapted and evolved over the history, it wasnt quite ready to be progressive with this half in half out model. It was an unattainable idea in the beginning. I think it spoke to harry and meghans commitment to wanting to support the queen, and for harry, in particular, this is a life, its all hes ever known for him to step back entirely will be difficult. Given the choice, royal life or civilian life, they chose their civilian lives help us understand what is true and whats not. Theres reports that the queen stripped them of the royal titles is that true no. Im glad you raised this theres a lot of confusion they remain hrh, but they wont be using it. His or her royal highness. The republicason is the monarchs to be careful theres no indication of people cashing in or monetizing the monarchy or their association to the monarchy they remain hrh but they dont or cant use it. This is a good compromise. In 1996, when charles and diana divorced, diana lost her hrh because she divorced prince charles. But theres stories of Prince William comforting diana she was crying over it he said, dont worry, mommy, one day, when i am king, ill reinstate your hrh this was a sensitive compromise. And with this review in a year, the door is not being closed theyre not being banished what about security, victoria its confusing who will pick up the tab for the security its confusing to everybody at the moment. The royal family never comments on security. They dont want to compromise the work of the Royal Protection officers, overseen by scotland yar yard, and also because of how much it costs tends to raise eyebrows the British Public will be suspicious if they foot the bill and Justin Trudeau has not taken it up with his civilians yet but has said they will foot the bill victoria, good to have you. Well talk more about harry and meghans decision and what prince harry is walking away from i can call him prince harry, right . You can well talk about that in our next half hour first, the impact of the devastating wildfires on the overnight start of the Australian Open. Were there live, talking to the best tennis players about the conditions theyre facing, right after this and here we have another burst pipe in denmark. If you look close. Jamie, are there any interesting photos from your trip . Ouch, okay. Huh, boring, boring, you dont need to see that. Oh, here we go. Can you believe my client steig had never heard of a home and auto bundle or that renters could bundle . Wait, youre a lawyer . Only licensed in stockholm. What is happening . Jamie anyway, game show, kumite, cinderella story. You know karate . No, alan, i practice muay thai, completely different skillset. Wherever, however, whenever. Well deliver lunch or dinner right to you. Order delivery at panerabread. Com. Panera. Food as it should be. Kevin sure does talk a lot. But your cars in the shop and this carpools all youve got. The best part of waking up is folgers in your cup. baby aughs whistling wherever we want to go, we just have to start. Autosave your way there with chase. Chase. Make more of whats yours.

Medical experts will also be monitoring the air quality the only thing the tournament can do is listen to specialists, listen to doctors, and then make the decision in based of what the doctors say. Reporter last week, during qualifying rounds, a player was in the lead when a coughing fit left her on the ground, struggling to breathe, and forcing her to withdraw. I didnt know what to do.

Lets get to your news at 8 00 President Trump is attacking democrats before letting his defense team take over at the impeachment trial this week. Geoff bennett joins us with three things to watch today. Good morning reporter good morning to you. First, this morning, House Democrats and the white house, preparing to spar on the senate floor, with opening arguments in the president s impeachment trial expected to kick off tomorrow the house impeachment managers huddled on capitol hill this weekend, planning and strategizing how theyll prosecute the case against President Trump. Democrats released their outline for the case, writing, in part, that the president s conduct regarding ukraine is the founders worst nightmare. President trump, for his part, is pushing back. Look at this were achieving what no administration has ever achieved before and what do i get out of it . Tell me. I get impeached. Thats what i get out of it. By these radical left lunatics, i get impeached. Reporter the president leaves this evening for the Economic Forum in davos. And lastly, a duel endorsement for the first time ever, the New York Times Editorial Board endorsed two president ial candidates senator Elizabeth Warren and senator amy klobuchar. It says that radical and realist approaches should be considered. And that warren and klobuchar are best equipped to lead that debate those are your three things to watch. Sheinelle . Geoff bennett, thank you. In an exclusive interview seen earlier here on today, democratic candidate Michael Bloomberg said President Trump is dangerous because he is, quote, impetuous and erratic he also explained why he thinks hes the one that can beat him in november. Know him better than anybody else i would be more susceptible, i think, to the middle of the road republicans who dont like him but do want somebody fiscally responsible. Its that, knowing how to deal with him its being tough enough to deal with him at a practical level. As a late entry into the race, bloomberg is skipping early contests, like the iowa caucuses, to focus on the march super tuesday primaries and beyond now, to your health, the cdc has put three u. S.

Kidney problems at that stage.

Today international correspondent, keir simmons, joins us once again from Buckingham Palace with more on not just what harry had to say, but also the questions about his future that still need to be answered, right . Reporter thats right, craig. Good morning, again. You and i, everyone on the show, we talk about why were so fascinated by the lives of the royals inside that palace there. And harry, of course, was born to be at the center of that spotlight. So, it makes you stop and think, doesnt it, that harry himself is now saying, he cannot keep going. This morning, prince harry is, in his own words, stepping back from everything hes ever known. It was so many months of talks, after so many years of challenges and i know i havent always gotten it right. But as far as this goes, there really was no other option reporter and yet, he may be fulfilling his destiny his mom, princess diana, was determined to show her boys, william and harry, an ordinary life taking them to amusement parks and movie theaters she taught harry to question the rules, even royal ones one of her mottos to me is, you can be as naughty as you want, just dont get caught. She would come and watch us play football and smuggle sweets into our socks. Reporter his dislike of cameras and the media spotlight, also began with diana. Pursued by the paparazzi, until that famous crash. 12yearold harry walking behind her coffin in front of the worlds media, something he later said no child should be asked to do. More than two decades later, people who know harry are not surprised by his decision to step back from royal responsibility we will continue to lead a life of service. In that respect, nothing changes. Reporter diana made the same decision, saying her children came first my First Priority will continue to be our children, william and harry, who deserve as much love and care and attention as i am able to give reporter becoming a parent himself, this impacted harry deeply in an extraordinary moment last year, he choked up, talking about fatherhood i remember sorry i remember squeezing meghans hand so tight during the awards. And both of us were thinking what it would be like to be parents one day. Reporter when baby archie was born, harry and meghan chose not to give him a royal title, a possible sign of things to come. Harry was always happiest away from the limelight, like when he was filmed serving in afghanistan. I think its about as normal as im ever going to get this is my bed i dont make it when im done here joy. Its made. Reporter his dislike for the press, no longer concealed everyone is guilty for barring the press. No one believes what they read hopefully. Reporter he readily dashed away from the camera when duty called perhaps losing his military role will be hardest for harry. I was born into this life it is a great honor to serve my country and the queen. Reporter he will continue his charity work for veterans, the Invictus Games the path harry is leaving behind did not make his happy maybe royal life isnt supposed to hopefully the path hes embarking on, in the words of the queen and harry himself, will allow a more peaceful, new life who ultimately wins and loses from this arrangement . Sheinelle, you know, i think, in a sense, no one has won in that statement, harry is trying to let us know that he feels that he has lost out by having to make this move in terms of the royal family, history will judge, i think. What they will be hoping inside that palace, the queen and her officials, is historians will say they made the right decision to protect the royal brand the danger is, that history will view them as being stubborn, maybe even a little vengeful you cant underestimate, i think, what the royal family is losing by losing harry and meghan they are global stars. And the royal family will be poorer without them. Sheinelle . Keir, thank you keir simmons, Buckingham Palace dave price in this morning how are ya . Good to see you, buddy. One of nbcs finest. I appreciate that fine little boost there. Lets look at the weather and see if i can live up to that around the country, its kind of quiet. Not a lot happening. Well go to the west coast from seattle, all the way to southern california, theres a threat of shower activity. Midsection of the country, we look to sections of the midwest, into the great lakes, where we could see some lakeeffect snow and cold air through the Northern Tier of the country right now.

Thats a quick look at our thats a quick look at your weather. Thank you, dave now, to a special story, in honor of this mlk day. Yes a maryland teen runs a cupcake business out of his familys home for every cupcake he sells, he gives one to someone in need in honor of the man who inspired his mission, dr. King. Reporter in his familys kitchen, 14yearold michael has mastered a secret recipe combining his love of baking i love to see it going from flour and sugar and eggs to a complete, finished product reporter to the passion of celebrating those who have risen to the occasion when they saw a need for change. I have the audacity to believe that peoples everywhere can have three meals a day for their bodies education and culture for their minds and dignity and equality and freedom for their spirits. I believe what selfcentered men build up reporter why do you like that quote he knows that people who are centered around others can build up and recreate what other people have torn down. Reporter for as long as he can remember, michael says hes looked up to dr. Martin luther king jr. His work and message of Public Service inspiring this teen baker to turn his talents into a way to help others for every cupcake you make, you give away a cupcake. Who are you giving the cupcakes to sometimes i go to Domestic Violence shelters or a homeless shelter. Ill go around d. C. Feeding the homeless reporter michael uses this one for one model, to run michaels desserts, the business he started at age 11, at the same time an epilepsy diagnosis prevented him from doing some of his favorite physical activities what do you say to anybody that may have a setback and can turn it into something that has bloomed into something so amazing . I would say what michael said to me. Its not about what you cant do its about doing what you can do reporter with a little help from mom, every month, michael bakes nearly 400 cupcakes, including some he creates as a monthly series honoring those he calls Freedom Fighters historical figures like maya angelou and Harriet Tubman january and february, hes dedicated a dessert to his hero, dr. King tell me the connection of mlk and this recipe. Sweet potato pie cup cacakes. The connection of the sweet poe they poe pie is it is an important and popular africanamerican pie reporter he injects each cupcake with the filling he makes from scratch more sugar. Reporter using a family recipe passed down through the generations. More butter and some salt reporter the only measurement involved, the size of his smile, when he knows he has it right thats good. Reporter michael tops the treats with icing. Two layers yes reporter and a bit more pie filling. A little filling beautiful. And a roasted marshmallow, the finishing touch, signaling the moment weve all been waiting for. This is beautiful. Especially me. I mean, Pretty Amazing thank you reporter i think you have a future a future drawing from the wisdom of the past, to carry out his own dream of helping those in need, one sweet gesture at a time this is his recipe. Want to try it yeah. The marshmallow is a nice touch, by the way. Its cute, right . Im really proud of him. He was sitting at home you get a diagnosis like that. Doctor say,s youve been climbing trees and what have you. And he said, i want to bake. Its phenomenal. Fantastic im going to enjoy this you pick up pop start. Good thing i didnt put a big thing of that in my mouth. I have hoping you had so we can laugh at you. There you go.

Were were back, with today food, having some fun this morning. Its National Cheese lovers day, celebrating by making our own e cheese board here to help create a work of art is elizabeth she is Senior Adviser at lubbocks cheese we have a friendly competition over here. Its not friendly listen to what she is saying. Make your own cheese board, pretend youre hosting a party and well see who wins ready . Im ready. Here we go we have six different cheese boards mild to wild board is that the basic board or what . At murrays, we have a saying, mild to wild it teaches you how to choose cheeses for your board also how to order them when youre going to taste. We start with the mildest and freshest cheese. Something soft, tangy, maybe lemony move on to a brie, a little firmer but tangy and then, a nutty menchego and butterscotch gouda you know your stuff. Yeah. You go to a house or a cocktail party, and theres something about a cheese board that everyone loves. Its irresistible right you put a little honey on there, too. Honey is a great complement the sweetness is a great contrast for the saltneiness an the cheese you havent done anything. Ive started daves cheese a decorative theme. Youre like a wild man over there. He is wild. This brings us to our second one theres so much i got cheese all this other stuff, am i supposed to use that get creative. Heres the next one write with chalk on a black slate board. This is cute when youre hosting, the guests want to know the cheese names. Sometimes its hard for you to remember them. Starting with a black slate board is excellent i love this the cheeses visually pop they are visibly beautiful take a chalk marker or chalk and write the name directly on the plate. I love that erase it after the party and start again next time. And the ceramic cheese labels, these are cool if youre going for a more formal look, the ceramic tiles are a perfect way to dress up your board, create labels that are eyecatching and have a set you can use next time. You know what you can do that the guys arent doing yet craig. My goodness i was about to say i dont have to adhere to your would you like something or would you like everything . Hes going from wild to wilder yeah. Heres the thing. How do you know what goes together we have a couple of different sayings. The first one is, what grows together, goes together. Thats a trick to help you pair. Essentially what it means, is cheeses and wines or cheese and food from the same region will taste good together. With silkyy case in point, parmesan oregeano aged for two years paired with silky, savory prosciutto are you kidding me . Whats not to like . The perfect combination what about opposites attract . Valentines day is around the corner the same holds true for cheese opposites attract. Are you listening opposites attract in this case, dark chocolate with a buttery blue cheese sweet salty combination, excellent. We have to go but really quickly, do we have a winner my goodness lets look at daves. Well thats so lame. This is not were not making a pepperoni pizza. Look at this its not just a cheese plate.
