Eyes that magic number to officially secure his nomination. All as they trade verbal fire like never before. Plus, a massive week ahead in georgia. A judge set to rule any day on whether fani willis will stay in charge of trumps sprawling election case. Also ahead, back in court, new jersey Senator Bob Menendez expected to be arraigned again on new charges this morning. Later, a new doj investigation into that midair scare on an Alaska Airlines flight. What it could mean for that airline and boeing. I hope you had a wonderful weekend. Its good to be with you. Its 10 00 eastern. Im Ana Cabrera Reporting from new york. We begin this morning with the intensifying and newly combative race for the white house. President Biden Planning a big Campaign Swing this week fresh off his state of the Union Address. With tomorrows primaries in georgia, both he and the president in that state over the weekend trading verbal jabs and sharing two vastly different visions for america. Two nights ago we all heard crooked joes angry, dark, hatefilled address, of the state of the Union Address. Im going to bring the country together, im going to bring it together. We all know donald trump sees a different america. An american story of resentment, revenge and retribution. Thats not me. Thats not you. Joining us now nbcs Garrett Haake covering the trump campaign, nbc Monica Alba Standing by at the white house. Also with us, adrienne elrod, former senior aide to the Biden Harris Campaign and rina shah, former congressional adviser. What are we looking at when it comes to trump and the race for delegates and how hes increasing his attraction on President Biden . We may not see the former president this week. Hes on the glide path towards the nomination with no opponents left in the race. He could hit the magic number on tuesday night. It depends on the Delegate Rules or it might take another week. Theres a sliding scale of the temperament and tone of these trump events. What we saw Saturday Night In Georgia was some of the darkest, nastiest train. You u saw him mocking President Biden, mocking him for his stutter there. He picked up where he left off in an interview this morning on cnbc, again talking about the state of the union. Here is what he had to say. I saw a very angry and confused man. I assume hes going to be the candidate. I think it probably, maybe was a terrible performance, but i think it was probably enough to get him over the heap, to get him over the barrier as to whether or not hes going to be their nominee. Ana, theres no heap on the democratic side. Theres basically nothing left between President Biden and renomination on the democratic ticket as well. Hes also on a glide path towards renomination once we get through this next round of states. Monica, the president making this big Campaign Push this week, visiting several key swing states. How is the campaign looking to capitalize on any momentum he might have gained in the state of the Union Address . Ana, theyre kind of ramping up by every possible metric in terms of field offices, there will be dozens opening in the coming weeks, in terms of the staff they have in what they view as the seven critical battleground states. Theyre upping that from about 100 stafferers to 350 in the coming weeks and months as well. In addition to that, youll see this ad blitz, more than 30 million highlighting some of those moments from the state of the Union Address and also distributing a new ad that really takes on this issue of the president s age as the oldest commanderinchief ever to serve head on. Take a listen to how he did that, which we saw this weekend. Look, im not a young guy. Thats no secret, but heres the deal. I understand how to get things done for the American People. I believe the job of the president is to fight for you, the American People, and thats what im doing. Im joe biden and i approve this message. Can we do one more take . Look, im very young, energy jtic and handsome, What The Hell am i doing this for . So the campaign is betting that using that kind of humor to make sure theyre tackling it and not dismissing this concern, that voters really do have, is going to be an effective strategy. Well see if that bears out in the polling because its still something that people raise. But in talking to voters after the state of the union, they felt he was a bit more vigorous, a bit more energetic. They want to translate that now to the Campaign Trail which is why he immediately went to two states he flipped in 2020 in pennsylvania and georgia over the weekend. Then hes going to be going to New Hampshire today to try to continue some of that messaging in addition to wisconsin and michigan later in the week. Ana . Adrienne, hes got a big schedule. What do you think of that ad . Is it effective . Is that the best way to handle voters concerns about the president s age . I think its incredibly effective especially coming off a very effective state of the Union Address. Hes been laying out his vision, by talking about what hes done in the first term. In the state of the union he was able to deliver that message to a larger, more Captive Audience in a granderscale way. I think its incredibly effective. What hes saying is age equals experience equals ability to get things done. I think thats a very effective argument. Its something a lot of his surrogates have made. Its something he, the first lady, the Vice President have been making as well. To say that in an ad blitz thats costing 30 million and theyre spending that 30 million across seven or eight really key states that will ultimately decide this election is incredibly important. I think, again, going on the offense on age and making sure the American People understand that wisdom, experience really enables you to get things done in is a bipartisan manner in washington which in many respects hes done, especially with two of his Major Economic bills that were both passed in a bipartisan way. Rena, meantime trump is out there in Georgia Mocking the president s stutter. Why go there . Does he think that helps his campaign in some way . Well, were just off a really intense week. I would submit to you one of the most intense weeks well see in this entire election cycle. We sit less than a week out from the pivotal Super Tuesday results as well as the state of the union. You have to wonder what is the playbook for republicans. For both candidates, the Name Of The Game for biden will be to drive the momentum forward every week from here on out until november. Then you look at how the republicans have gamed this thing out. Looking at thursday night, the state of the union, theyre relying entirely on immigration and border issues and tieing that to crime and public safety. Thats all theyve got right now. Donald trump going for really awful insults that i think any parent, any person with a stutter looks at and says that is absolutely abhorrent, its a moment at which you know theyve got nothing more. When you looked at the congress, you see, again, within the past ten days, youve seen endorsements of haley by collins, murkowski, two senators. Senator todd young has come down and doubled down on his comments saying he wont endorse trump, he has a disastrous downballot effect. More of this theyll see from donald trump, the less theyll want to turn out and click for him. Adrienne, at the trump event in georgia, we know the former president met with the parents of laken riley, the georgia Nursing Student who was allegedly killed by an undocumented immigrant. President biden addressed the story in the state of the union and referred to the suspect as a, quote, illegal, a term he tells Jonathan Capehart he now regrets. I shouldnt have used illegal. Its undocumented. Look, when i spoke about the difference between trump and me, one of the things i talked about on the border is the way he talks about vermin, these people polluting the blood. You regret using that word. Yes. Adrienne, the right is now seizing on President Biden walking it back. Do you think the president handled this the right way . I certainly did. He obviously said he regretted using the word and showed contrition when he talked to Jonathan Capehart which i think is something americans love. Americans love it when people apologize for something they feel they shouldnt have said. Thats something we never see from donald trump. Similar to what rina was saying, if youre trying to appeal to swing voters, independent voters, voters maybe Still Deciding how to vote in this upcoming election, using divisive rhetoric, hateful rhetoric like donald trump does when he describes immigrants, plenty of people in this country, pretty much everybody except for white men, its not something that appeals to that sector of voters. You have somebody like President Biden show shows compassion, a very forward looking agenda, who talks very positively in a very aspirational tone about the united states. You compare that to donald trump who is trying to use fear and rhetoric to drive his voters out. Its something that, again, its going to deliver red meat to trumps base, but certainly isnt going to do anything to corral some of those voters that trump absolutely needs to win this election. Garrett, were seeing a little cleanup from republican senator katie britt who delivered the response. A little cleanup but theres not much you can do when you get caught in a mess like this. During the state of the union she told a story about a woman who told her her story about having been sextrafficked as a teenager. The implication was that this happened in the united states. The woman in question was sextrafficked in mexico and she says and has said in several interviews that the incident occurred burg the george w. Bush administration. Britt was pressed over the weekend. Here is how she tried to clean it up. But to be clear, the story you relayed is not something that happened under the biden administration, that particular person . I very clearly said i spoke to a woman who told me about when she was trafficked when she was 12. So i didnt say a teenager. I didnt say a young woman. A grown woman, a woman when she was trafficked when she was 12. Some rhetorical gymnastics there in the cleanup with a much smaller audience than those who saw her make those claims without much, in fact, any supporting evidence in her state of the union response. It was one of the most memorable, most haunting parts of her state of the union response. Rina, did Senator Britt Mishandle this . We can talk all day long about how she used what is being used as a fund me baby and how she needs media training. All of that is there. The thing that stuck out the most was she didnt ucf any data points. Of course, storytelling is the core of what all of us political communicators have told our clients to do over the years. In speech writing it was central to me. I think now what she needed to do in that response and what she fell flat on doing was to speak about how trump can make everybodys lives better versus joe biden. He gave some strong data points in that state of the union that cannot be contested. What she followed with was absolutely it felt like nonsense at moments, and i dont think it appealed to anyone because it was confusing at times. And also at the end of the day, who was it intended to drive out . It was intended to get to the heart of the base and thats just not the Name Of The Game here. Senator britt has definitely lost rising star status here which is sad for her. My husband and many people knew her growing up in alabama and said this is somebody that kind of did everything right. Clearly what shes done is at the altar of donald trump and it will keep her out of rooms in which she really could have opened the door to to herself. Rina shah, garrett elrod, monica alba, my thanks to all of you. Its a big week in georgia where we could learn the fate of d. A. Fani willis and her investigation into donald trump.

Judge scott mcafee is expected to decide by Friday Whether District Attorney fani willis will stay on the Georgia Election interference case. Meanwhile, 91 million had not silenced donald trump from talking about e. Jean carroll. Hes saying similar things that got him sued for defamation in the first place. Lets bring in nbc news current Vaughn Hillyard and Catherine Christian an msnbc legal analyst. Trump is still talking about e. Jean carroll. What did he say exactly this weekend . The political element of this, the general election on his mind. Hes got criminal trials on his mind. Yet he keeps coming back to e. Jean carroll. Why . Because hes going to have to pay these damages and is trying to get the opportunity to appeal the decision. He was able to post this 91 million bond, but theres a lot of Question Marks about exactly what. I just posted a 91 million bond 91 million on a fake story, totally made up story based on false accusations made about me by a woman i didnt know nothing about, never heard of. She wrote a book, she said things. When i denied it, i said its crazy, its false. I got sued for defamation. Thats where it starts. Its those very statements that led to the lawsuit of defamation and these very damages. Catherine, what does this mean . Could he get sued yet again and does this hurt or help him on his appeal . He could be sued again. That would be ms. Carrolls choice and her attorneys choice. This is a duplicate equivalent of what he was sued for and lost for. I think this morning on cnbc he referred to as miss bergdorf goodman. Clearly hes talking about her. Maybe in his mind hes thinking im not saying his mind. Everyone knows who hes talking about. Yes hes committed defamation again. Does it hurt his Appeal Process at all . It shouldnt. Junls read papers and look at the news. Its clearly he is incorrigible. Lets talk about georgia, vaughn. What are the possible outcomes here as we await this decision by judge scott mcafee . The future of this Fulton County case and the other 18 defendants is on the line. Were talking about judge mcphee coming out with a decision by friday on whether to disqualify fani willis from being able to prosecute this case. If he does decide to disqualify her, it disqualifies the entire Fulton County office which will leave it in the hands of another District Attorney who can relook at the case, relook at the charges against donald trump and the others. The attorney for fani willis during the evidentiary hearing made the case that judge mcphee is going to have to make the determination on whether theres actual conflict of interest, not an appearance of a conflict of interest. And also noted four of the defendants have actually already pleaded guilty and there is nothing from the relationship that she had with special prosecutor nathan wade that could change the way shes actually prosecuting the case or the actual indictment against these individuals intl the allegations of misconduct, catherine, have certainly derailed the case from moving forward as the d. A. Would like it to be. So, are you surprised its taking judge mcsfee so long to issue a decision . What do you see as the stakes here . Im not surprised. I think he wants to make sure, whatever decision he comes up with, no one can say he did it on the fly. Hes taking his time. This is an unforced error by the d. A. If the judge decides this case on the appearance of impropriety as opposed to actual conflict, i think that would be the wrong standard because a lot of elected d. A. s in this country would be disqualified. Thats a very low standard. Thats what the defense wants. The law is in georgia, theres some dispute, but most of the appellate cases say you have to find an actual conflict of interest, that the d. A. Had a stake in the outcome. I dont believe that the Defense Attorneys approve that. Appearance of impropriety . Yes, clearly an appearance of impropriety. I dont think the judge will go with that standard. Well find out by friday. If he does, in fact, go in that direction, is there another d. A. To take this on . It has to go to georgia to a prosecutors counsel. If that happens, this case will not be tried this year or ever if that happens. It will just be held in limbo. This decision could mean everything when it comes to the decision of this case. Thank you. Good to see you both. Breaking news just in at msnbc. Former trump aide Peter Navarro is going to go to prison. Hes been ordered to report to federal prison march 19th. Hell begin his fourmonth sentence on contempt of Congress Charges for defying a subpoena from the january 6th committee. Navarro has asked a court to stay his appearance.

He has a right to defend israel, a right to continue to pursue hamas, but he must, he must, he must, pay more attention to the innocent lives being lost as a consequence of the actions taken. Hes hurting in my view, hes Hurting Israel more than helping israel by making the rest of the world its contrary to what israel stands for and i think its big mistake. Now israel Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu is rejecting that new criticism from President Biden that hes Hurting Israel more than helping. With netanyahu arguing the majority of israelis agree with his policies. The growing divide growing more public as millions of muslims Around The World Begin Fasting for ramadan without a new ceasefire deal in place. Also this morning, another Holdup On Critical Aid thats on its way to gaza. A ship carrying nearly 200 tons of food is waiting to leave cyprus. Weve just learned its likely it will not be able to leave today. Nbc chief Foreign Correspondent Richard Engel is joining us. What do we know about this aid ship and when it can get moving . Reporter we dont exactly know. The Aid Organization that is running the ship, the World Central Kitchen which is a u. S. Based charity which is really i dont want to say come out of nowhere, but in the last several months emerged as a Global Player in humanitarian relief says its not their fault, they are ready, but they have been held up. Many humanitarian Aid Organizations point the finger at israel. Israel controls access in and out of gaza, eej though gaza shares a border with egypt and with israel, israel for security concerns, for its dominance, is not allowing free entry of goods, personnel, anything in and out of gaza. This has been a very long, very slow process. This aid ship, just so were clear, is not going to solve the problems of hunger in gaza by any stretch of the imagination. It is a relatively small ship. It has been here for weeks while the cargo has been meticulously loaded. Israeli officials have been involved in the inspection process. The inspections were carried out by sip yacht Customs Officials with israeli supervision. Once the ship does leave, it only travels three miles an hour towing a barge and it will take three days to get to gaza, even though gaza is 200 miles from here. This is a very tedious, Laborious Process that has once again been delayed. Seems like they cant catch a break to getting aid to those innocents inside gaza. Richard, we continue to see more tension between President Biden and netanyahu. I want to listen to more of this exclusive interview with Jonathan Capehart. Watch. What is your red line with Prime Minister netanyahu . Do you have a red line . For instance, would invasion of rafah, which you have urged him not to do, would that be a red line . It is a red line, but im never going to leave israel. The defense of israel is still critical. Theres no red line im going to cut off all weapons so they dont have the iron dome to protect them. So biden is more publicly critical of nun, but that was a little uncertain there. Does it sound like a blurry red line to you . Reporter he just said there is no red line, so i dont think it was unclear at all. He said hes not going to cut off the weapons supply, hes not going to cut off the supply of weapons for the iron dome system. The iron dome system is israels Missile Defense system. Without the Intercepter Rockets that go into the iron dome system, the iron dome system doesnt work. Theres been a lot of criticism of the u. S. Policy toward israel that the u. S. Is trying to provide aid to the people of gaza through this incredibly slow, Laborious Process that has once again been delayed, and at the same time promising and continuing to deliver weapons and now saying that there is no red line. So the criticism that im hearing across the region is that the u. S. Is effectively playing both sides here. Theyre trying to help the people of gaza by encouraging this aid, but also sending israel weapons and now saying publicly that there is no red line that would cause the u. S. To cut off the supply of arms to israel. No red line that would do that at least he said. Richard engel, thank you for providing the clarity were all seeking. Appreciate you. Turning now to the growing crisis in haiti where armed gangs have largely overtaken the capitol of portauprince. The u. S. Military flying in additional u. S. Forces to bolster security at the u. S. Embassy in haiti and airlifting nonessential Embassy Personnel out of there. Over the weekend gangs launched major attacks on at least three Police Stations in portauprince. They have issued a State Of Emergency and nightly curfews. The situation on the ground has accelerated a humanitarian crisis with the u. N. Reporting 5. 5 million people, almost half of haitis population now needing humanitarian aid. Turning to russia where the socalled president election is just days away, Vladimir Putin doesnt face any real opposition and is expected to coast to a fifth term in office. It comes as tensions grow between russia and the u. S. After the death of alexei navalny. Nbcs Josh Lederman is in norway where he got an upclose look at u. S. Marines training near Russias Arctic border. It looks cold there. What did you see . Reporter it is cold, ana. Its pretty obvious as you take a look around that the climate in the arctic is nothing like the hot, dry deserts of iraq, syria and afghanistan where the u. S. Military has really been focused in the last two decades, particularly focussed on counterinsurgency. Deterring President Putin and the Russian Military is a whole different ball game. Thats why there are 20,000 nato troops on the ground in this region exercising together as they try to show that deterrence. I spent the last three days in the snow with u. S. Marines from the Second Expeditionary force. Here is what we saw. The frosty arctic is becoming the new battleground in a growing Military Competition between russia and the west. The u. S. Marines and a dozen Allies Joining forces for war games in Northern Norway as part of the largest nato exercises since the cold war. The u. S. And nato troops are practicing storming a beach from the sea and the air as they work to defend nato territory from any threat. Ill go ahead and continue maintaining airway and ill grab a leg. Reporter in this mass casualty drill, languages blend together as american and norwegian troops work shoulder to shoulder. These war games taking place not far from russias border. As Global Warming melts sea ice, the u. S. , russia and china are all seeking to expand their arctic foothold. Pour the marines, its a sharp shift after decades fighting in the hot, dry climates of the middle east. After a rocky journey through the mountains, we reached marinetion dug in on the mountain side. At night, the temperatures can drop below zero. We had marines who had never been in the snow before coming to norway. Reporter the scenario, Repelling An Invasion by a major hostile power from the east. Moscow is watching. Norwegian Officials Say they detected russian vessels nearby spying on the exercises. Is it easier to hide in a snowy forest than in the desert . I would say it depends on the conditions. On a day like this, the snow tracks would be left. Reporter these marines spent nearly two weeks here sleeping up to six to aa tent, boiling snow for water, even praying in the snow. Amen, go in peace, serve the lord. Reporter lance coral cooper cory. My first time touching a ski pole was here. How did it go . I fell a lot. I had fun, biggest smile on my face. Reporter a forceful message from the u. S. And its allies. Anywhere we go, i know we can fight. I know we can thrive. Reporter ana, when you think about what nato is up against, these exercises are taking place not just in norway, but also in sweden and finland, the two newest nato members. That expansion has added more than 800 miles to natos border with russia. Ana . Fascinating report. Thank you so much Josh Lederman.

A criminal investigation is now under way into that scary door Panel Blowout on an Alaska Airlines flight in january. The airline is cooperating with federal agents contacting passengers, pilots and crew members on that flight. Nbc news correspondent Stephanie Gosk has more on this for us. The ntsb and faa were already doing investigations. What triggered the doj investigation . This is a criminal probe. Thats an important distinction. Alaska airlines say its pretty typical when theres an incident like this that the donl might come in and do its own investigation. Beyond that we dont know much else, anna. We know what happened that day on january 5th, the frightening moment when the door panel blew off at 14,000 feet on that flight. Thankfully no one was injured, but dozen of passengers hired attorneys. One of the attorneys said over the weekend that those passengers want accountability, and whether that comes from a donl investigation or whether that comes from other investigations including the ntsb remains to be seen. You did have last week the ntsb accuse boeing of not providing documents and information it had asked for. Boeing wrote a letter to senator Maria Cantwell saying those documents dont exist even though it is Company Policy to create documents for a door panel like that. Apparently theyre not there. It gets confusing. But the ntsb chair the fact that the document dont exist could be a problem at all. Weve been following this for so long because it was so, so alarming. So are boeing or Alaska Airlines saying more about steps theyre taking or how theyre handling all this . Boeing has not commented, the doj has not commented. Alaska ar lines says its not the target of this investigation. Thanks for staying on it for us. A race against the capitol hill clock for creators on tiktok.

Just moments ago new jersey democratic Senator Bob Men den dez arriving back at a federal courthouse where hes set to be arraigned in the next hour on a new set of charges that he and his wife conspired to obstruct justice in the bribery case against him. He now faces a total of 18 federal charges. Hes pleaded not guilty so far. Nbc news vittive Correspondent Tom Winter joining us now. Explain how these new charges differ from the ones he was already facing. The judge will ask him how hell plead to conspiracy to obstruct justice and actual obstruction of justice. This is tied to a number of revelations in the super seeding indictment that pertained to the actions he took once he realized there was a federal criminal investigation, once the Search Warrants were done, once the subpoenas started flying, what were they doing then . A key part of this according to federal prosecutors, they am ledge that the senator and his wife started to issue checks to some of the individuals involved in this alleged bribery scheme saying, oh, this is a repayment for a loan. All along, federal prosecutors say, they darn well knew this was actually repayment for a bribe. Thats what theyre alleging here. Thats the central part of this. It involves a couple of new jersey businessmen as you and i have talked about before. One has recently pleaded guilty. Thats something well continue to watch. He has somebody who was a codefendant working with the investigators now . Is that how we believe this is going . Right, working with federal prosecutors. If you look at some of the language changed in the super seeding indictment, they actually talk almost exactly mirrors what jose uribe, what he said to the judge and the types of crimes that he said he did. When you look at this its like, okay, hes saying one thing and all of a sunday this is the superseding indictment. Clearly prosecutors are relying on the testimony that these were, a, bribes, and b, there was conspiracy to obstruct js tis when menendezs attorneys went to the Southern District of new york and said, oh, these are the checks, theyre just repayment for loans. That was an effort to mislead prosecutors they say, and theyre relying in part on that testimony. Thank you for the update, tom. From d. C. To michigan where the trial of James Crumbley is under way.

A royal apology this morning over an apparent photo shopped faux pas. Yesterday princess of Wales Kate Middleton shared her First Official photo since surgery in january. But within hours some of the biggest News Agencies pulled it saying it appeared to be manipulated. Now the princess is apologizing saying in a tweet, like many amateur photographers, i do occasionally experiment with editing. I wanted to express my apologies for any confusion the family photograph we shared yesterday caused. Lets bring in matt bradley in london. Matt, seemed like this photo was meant to clear up questions about the princess health. How much did that backfire . Reporter i mean, it backfired hugely and rather elegantly. They were trying to kind of tamp down some of the online speculation about kates whereabouts and her health. Two questions that have been looming the past several months. You mentioned the last time she had this is the first time she had been seen since the surgery. This is the first time cease been seen in public, really photographed at all, ever since her appearance on christmas with her children. So it has been months. So there is some reason why there is so much speculation. But for those of us who have been on the brunt end of social media hatred or abuse or harassment, they know Everybody Knows very well that the best thing to do is to say nothing at all. The palace and kate middleton, her husband and all of those officials around them, they definitely know that too. So this had to have been some kind of calculated decision to release this photo. Now, whether or not it was actually manipulated at nbc new, our own photographer here, head of our photography department, says it does look like it has been manipulated in certain parts. The princess acknowledgement that she manipulated it herself because shesen amateur photographer, it depends what you believe. Well let the audience decide whether this is a conspiracy in the castle or whether this is just a storm in a tea cup. Also, does it make sense in terms of what was manipulated. Can you explain what we think was edited . Reporter from our own shop here in london at nbc, our Head Photographer Editor here, he looked at it and said there was a little bit of what looked like some blurriness and some problems with formatting that didnt look like they worked in real life on the wrist of Kate Middletons daughter. And if you look at one of her sons feet, it looks as though there is a cut in the picture where manipulation might have happened. I got to tell you, if you ever try to take a picture of kids, they dont always come out like you want. Maybe she did just try to make it look better. Okay. Matt bradley, i dont think the story has seen the ending just yet. Thank you. Speaking of endings, and hollywood, it appears that the academy has picked a side now in the barbie debate. Christopher nolan won for best director. And also took best supporting actor and supporting actor. But barbie still got her moment. Billie eilish and her brother won for what was i made for. And ryan gosling broke the kenergy with an epic performance of barbies im just ken that brought down the mojo across the house. To be the reason, is it a crime if im not with me female is it finally here, am i dreaming all right. That is kennuff for me. Reporting from nyo
