Yasmin vossoughian and Louis Burgdorf. Steef scalise remains in credit can cal condition after being shot during congressional baseball practice. Last night the country was watching as lawmakers took to the field in his honor. The annual baseball game went on as planned. Before playing, both teams med in the infield in a huddle to pray. President trump recorded a video message for the game, encouraging unity. In washington we have our disagreements, but we all agree were here to serve this nation we love. And the people who call it home. Thats the source of unity. More than ever, we must embrace it so on this special night i leave you with three Great American words that for generations have torn down barriers, built bridges of unity and defied those who have sought to pull us apart. Ladies and gentlemen, lets play ball. Now, last nights first pitch was thrown out by Capitol Police officer david bailey. He suffered a minor injury in wednesdays shooting. You can hear the roaring crowd as he hobbled to the plate to throw out that pitch. Sponsorship doubled overnight. The game raised more than 1 million for d. C. Area charities. Democrats ended up winning 112. Team manager mike doyle accepted the trophy and gave it to joe barton to put in congressman scalises office. Scalise has undergone three surgeries so far. The homent releasing a Statement Last night saying he has improved in the last 24 hours but will need additional operations and will be in the hospital for some time. Vice president mike pence and his wife visited the hospital just yesterday to spoke on the Police Officer. He spoke to Police Officer crystal griner also injured in the shooting. Were joined from Garrett Haake from alexandria. Whats the latest on the investigation and what more are we learning about the suspect, James Hodgkinson . Reporter fbi investigators were hard at work in alexandria all day yesterday, late in the evening they came you the with an statementing saying they recovered the two weapons. They believe both were acquired legally, possibly back in illinois where the shooter is from. They also recovered perhaps more importantly for the investigation, his laptop, his cell phone and a camera. This might help them determine any planning that might have taken place before the shooting and anyone he may have spoken to in the leadup to this crime. One person not likely to be helpful to the investigation is the shooters wife in illinois. She spoke to reporters yesterday and said she hadnt spoken to her husband since he left for d. C. In late march. Did he explain to you or say anything to you about why he was going. No. Did you know where he was going . No. He said washington, d. C. But he wanted to work on taxes. He said he wanted to go up there and work with people to change the tax brackets. Did he call you or did he tell you before he left . No, he made preparations for leaving, so what kind of preparations did he make . He sold almost everything he owned from his businesses. Reporter evidence collection will likely continue at alexandria at the ball field. The fbi says theyre still interested in hearing from the public. They say no tip at this point is too small. Certainly an investigation still developing. Garrett haake, thank you. President trump continues to vent his frustration over the ongoing russia probe. Nbc news has learned the president is under investigation by special Counsel Robert Mueller, whos looking at whether the president may have used his influence to close dwoun elements of the russia probe. Kristen welker has all the details for us. Reporter a major bombshell in the russia probe. Special Counsel Robert Mueller is launching a criminal investigation into President Trump for possible obstruction of justice, according to a former Senior Intelligence official. The president ignoring shouted questions today. Do you belief you are under investigation now . Reporter but not holding back on twitter, calling it the single greatest witch hunt in american political history. And in a rare afternoon tweet storm, trying to shift the focus to his former rifval, hillary clinton. Crooked h. Destroyed phones with hammer, bleached emails and had husband meet with ag days before she was cleared and they want to talk about obstruction . Last week ousted fbi director james comey was asked whether he believed the president s request to back off the investigation into National Security adviser Michael Flynn amounted to obstruction. Thats a conclusion im sure the special counsel will work towards to try to understand what the intention was there and whether thats an offense. Reporter the former intelligence source tells nbc news, mueller has requested interviews with top intelligence officials, including director of National Intelligence daniel coats, who appeared on capitol hill today in a closed session. Theres rarely a smoking gun, so a prosecutor tries to string together a pattern of conduct, to paint a picture of someone who has tried to stop an investigation. Reporter trump sure gate Newt Gingrich tweeting, should be clear mueller is the antitrump special counsel, but other republicans defending the probe. Its not a witch hunt, no. I think that, you know, hes got a job to do. Reporter the criminal inquiry coming 146 days into mr. Trumps presidency, starting earlier than any other modern day president , including Richard Nixon and bill clinton. This becomes more than just drip, drip, drip. This is a torrent which could continue in a way that could be perilous to this president. Reporter mr. Pence has retained a personal lawyer to represent him in the special counsel investigation. For the president , even if mueller finds obstruction of justice, only congress can take action. A sitting president cannot be indicted, only impeached. Thanks to Kristen Welker for that report. Joining us from washington, d. C. , is politicos daniel litman. Lets talk about this investigation. The Washington Post reports that now the business dealings of president ial soninlaw and adviser Jared Kushner are also under investigation by special prosecutor robert mueller. It seems the investigation is really moving along very quickly. What are they looking at in particular, do you think . So, kushners financial dealings have been pretty opaque. So, one critical meeting theyre going to be looking at is in december when kushner met with the head of a russian bank in new york city. The russian bank says it was about business, but Trump White House says it was a diplomatic dealing. So, does that russian bank have ties to Kushner Properties . Thats a question mueller will be looking at. Rod rosenstein issuing a statement late last night. I want to read that. He said, quote, americans should exercise caution before accepting as true any stories attributed to anonymous officials, particularly when they do not identify the country let alone the branch or agency of government with which the alleged sources supposedly are affiliated. Americans should be skeptical about anonymous allegations. The department of justice has a longestablished policy to either confirm nor deny such allegations. Whats the read on this from washington, daniel . Yeah, people in washington are saying this was a bizarre statement. Theres no reason for rosenstein to issue this press release late last night. It looks like there might be a big story coming out they want to refute. Whats interesting is rosenstein didnt even stick up for the doj and mueller, even after trump was attacking it yesterday. So, people are just very confused about why Rod Rosenstein issued this statement in the first place. Lets talk about the political implications as we heard mark healperin refer to i it goes from drip, drip, drip to a torrent. I agree. Capitol hill is very concerned that the investigation is only going to get worse for trump and that makes it much harder to pass tax reform, health care, because the president s negotiating hand is weaker. Vulnerable moderate and even conservative congressmen on the hill, theyre less willing to go along with what the president says if they know that, you know, some of his top aides are in jeopardy because of this mueller investigation. Not to mention you also have mike pence now whos hired outside counsel as well particularly for this russia probe. I have a feeling well hear more from this from the president in the coming days. Daniel, thank you. Breaking news overseas. Russias Defense Ministry says one of its air strikes may have killed Abu Bakr Al Baghdadi.

The white house continues to grapple with outside investigation spurd on by russia meddling accusation. Vice president mike pence has hired outside Legal Counsel to handle inquiries into the russia probe. Hiring Richard Cullen who has handled highprofile clients in the past. Potential issues involving pence include Michael Flynns claims about his conversations with russia, the transition teams knowledge of payments from turkey and russia, and pence being one of the few in the administration consulted on the firing of fbi director james comey. Theres also news special counsel in the russia probe is looking into business deals of Jared Kushner, which was alluded to by one of the reporters on morning joe. The New York Times piece raised the question about Money Laundering being something thats in the crosshairs of the investigation at this point. What can you tell us about that on the basis of your reporting . Yes, we know and weve reported before that trump associates, including Jared Kushner, his soninlaw, are being investigated for financial crimes. Along with all the other things being investigated, they are being investigated for financial crimes during the 2016 president ial election. Attorney for kushner responded in a statement saying, quote, we do not know what this report refers to. It would be Standard Practice for the special counsel to examine financial records to look for anything related to russia. Mr. Kushner agreed to share with congress. He will do the same if hes contacted in connection with any other inquiry. Nbc news Investigation Unit beliefs the new reporting does not signal an increase of skut i scrutiny of kushner at this time. President trump continues to vent his frustration with the russian probe. Yesterday afternoon the president tweeted, why is it that Hillary Clintons family and dems dealing with russia are not looked at but my nondealings are, adding, crooked h. Destroyed phones with hammer, bleached emails and had husband meet with ag days before she was cleared and they talk about obstruction . This after the president tweeted, the russian appropriate is the great es witch hunt led by very bad and conflicted people. Deputy attorney general Rod Rosenstein, who has authority over robert mueller, released this statement, quote, americans should exercise caution before accepting as true any stories attributed to anonymous officials. Particularly when they do not identify the country let alone the branch or agency of government with which the alleged sources supposedly are affiliated. Americans should be skeptical about anonymous allegations. The department of justice has a longestablished policy to neither confirm nor deny such allegations. Fired u. S. Attorney Preet Bharara tweeted, where is the president s long overdue statement. Joining us from washington, d. C. Is politicos daniel l lippman. Lets talk about the drama inside the white house. How is the russia investigation in particular playing out inside the white house . It looks like muellers investigation has really gotten into trumps head. Trump keeps insisting to his friends that hes not personally under investigation, although that seems to not be the case right now. And he even tivos morning tv shows and watches them in the afternoon or evening when he has free time to basically its almost like hate watching television because its all about the russia probe and whats going on. Thats not really good for his agenda for getting things done. We also have sort of these simultaneous investigations going on amongst the congressional committees as well. How are they responding into the investigation, the obstruction of justice by the president . I think the congressional committees want to let bob mueller do his job. Mueller has hired a ton of topflight lawyers from doj. I think congress stresses while they have a significant role to play, mueller really has prosecutorial firepower if need be to really get to the bottom of this. So, they want mueller to be let you know, to let mueller do his job and that they will provide backup on capitol hill. Lets switch gears. I want to ask you about this new poll coming out from the Associated Press and norc center. It puts President Trumps Approval Rating at 35 with 64 disaproving. According to that poll, health care has been his worst issue with about 66 disapproving of the way hes been handling that particular issue. How do you think thats going to affect his ability to push for haeshg reform . Could that be a reason why he made those comments that were leaked earlier in the week about saying the House Health Care bill was mean . Yeah, if his Approval Rating was at 50 or so, which would be normal for a president in the First Six Months of his term, it would be much easier for him to get something done on capitol hill. I would also flag that hes lost a significant portion, maybe a third of strong support. So, its people who were big backers of trump in the last election. Theyre peeling away because none of the things they voted for not many of them are actually getting passed. Its hard for trump to point to significant victories. Thats why hes losing support. Daniel lippman live in washington, d. C. , thank you. Turning back to that tragic shooting in washington, House Majority whip Steve Scalise remains in critical condition. Last night the country was watching as lawmakers took to the field in his honor. The annual congressional baseball game went on as planned before playing both teams. They met in a huddle in the infield to pray. President trump reporting a video message before the game encouraging unity. In washington we have our disagreements but we all agree were here to serve this nation we love. And the people who call it home. Thats the source of unity. More than ever, we must embrace it so that on this special night, i leave you with three Great American words that for generations have torn down barriers, built bridges of unity and defied those who have sought to pull us apart. Ladies and gentlemen, lets play ball. And last nights game raised more than 1 million from d. C. Area charities. Meanwhile, congressman scalise has undergone three surgeries so far. The hospital releasing a statement saying hes improved in the last 24 hours but will need additional operations and will be in the hospital for some time. Joining us msnbc correspondent Garrett Haake life from washington, d. C. As we get further away from wednesday, we learn more about the suspect. What is the latest now on the shooting investigation . What have authorities gotten . Reporter the fbi has been making steady progress in this investigation. Yesterday they announced they recovered the guns used in this case, a handgun, a 9millimeter handgun and 6 caliber rifle and determined both were purchased legally. More important for the investigation, they finally finished processing the shooters vehicle. In it they found a laptop, cell phone and camera. Those three things will tell them about how he might have planned this attack, and whom, if anyone, he might have discussed it in the leadup. Yesterday reporters spoke to the suspects wife back in illinois. It seems she was likely not in the loop. She says she hasnt seen her husband since he left for d. C. In late march. Garrett haake, thanks for joining me. Cass their vote in special congressional election. Jon ossoff and karen handles, the letter reportedly told neighbors to take a whiff of the powder and join the republican candidate in the hospital. Meanwhile ossoffs Campaign Manager said the Democrats Campaign has also received multiple threats of violence in recent days and security detail has been hired. Amid tensions, both sides came together in unity in georgia as lawmakers remain on edge following the shooting of House Majority whip Steve Scalise. Speaking with Andrea Mitchell yesterday, nancy pelosi weighing in on the calls by some in congress for more security. Someone was telling me, im so sad because protesters showed up at my town hall. This is a democracy. Yes, if there seems to be a need for local Law Enforcement to be involved, then a judgment will be made. But we must not misinterpret the spontaneous outpouring of voices of the American People as a threat. Shifting to some polling. The gop controls the white house and congress, but some of the new polling shows Republican Voters dont like what they see. According to gallup, 41 of republicans say they are satisfied with the way things are going in the country. Thats a 17point drop since may. Thats at the lowest point since the president took office. Meanwhile, new numbers from the Associated Press tell a similar story. Overall, 64 of those polled disaprove of the president s job performance. Just 35 approve. When you ask only republicans, a full 25 disapprove of the job that hes doing as president. Still ahead, Senate Republicans are racing to try and get their Health Care Overall bill over the finish line. Why closed door meetings over legislation arent sitting well with some party members.

Republican leaders in the senate are pushing to bring their version of a bill to overhaul this countrys Health Care Laws to a vote by the end of this month. Some within the party are be becoming frustrated about the secrecy of the crafting of the bill. They are conducting negotiations behind closed door in a glaring break from practices of how lawmakers traditionally work. Only a Small Working Group of about 13 senators are working on the measure rather than the broader committees who usually handle the health care issue. Earlier in the week, Mitch Mcconnell told reporters theyd see the bill when its released, adding nobody is hiding it. Meanwhile, republicans in the house are publicly brushing off comments by President Trump over their version of the health care bill, which he reportedly called mean. Speaking with msnbc yesterday, congressman mark sanford of South Carolina responded to the criticism. Take a listen. Its a bill he endorsed. And that he whipped. Then he stood in the rose garden and said it was a good bill. But he said it was mean. What i would say is, no, it was an attempt at reform. Ultimately the decision we had to make in the house, was it a perfect bill, i dont think it was. Should we at least allow the senate to continue their debate. Lets turn to business where nestle is looking to sell its u. S. Candy business. Gemma joins us live from london. Could this be the end of the butterfinger . Well, yes, indeed. Youre absolutely right to say the u. S. Confectionary business does include brands such as butterfinger and baby ruth. It has said it will not sell its toll house brand no matter what. The sale is just one option being explored as part of an overall strategic review. Were not quite sure what the outcome will be. This is a business with 900 million a year worth of sales. The ceo did say earlier theyre looking at mergers and acquisitions if the right opportunity came along and it made strategic sense. Lets look at chemicals. Planned merger between dupont and dow chemical getting through the u. S. Antitrust courts on thursday. The court said they can go ahead provided they sell certain assets, including some Crop Protection products. This was a deal announced way back in december 2015, billed as an allstar merger and valued around 130 billion. Immediately after the ruling came out, it was deeply criticized by the head of the National Farmers union who said it was deeply disappointing and that farmers would have to pay higher costs as a result. Lets talk tech. Snap stock plummeted by 5 on thursday, taking share price all the way back to 17, its ipo price. Shares have fallen by 42 from the high point they reached on march 3rd, second day of trading. This comes on the back of the company reporting weaker user growth and weaker Revenue Growth back in may at first results as public company. Weve seen several analysts turn more beari isish on the stock. Back to you. I dont know how you feel about that butterfinger story, thats scary for me. I love the transition from candy to chemicals. Can you cheer dads up like ayman about possible what are you upset about . Whats ayman upset about . Butterfinger. Possibly being youre not upset about the nestle crunch, right . That can go. Butterfinger is way better than nestle crunch. Baby ruth is better than all of them. Baby ruth yeah, right back to the goonies. Heres the headline for the upcoming weekend. The temperature prediction for phoenix is 122 on tuesday. That would tie their alltime hottest temperature they ever recorded in the cities. Vegas, 115 tuesday. Central california from sunday on fathers day through tuesday, 109. Obviously, this will be headlinemaking. 30 Million People are under either heat advisories or heat warning.

Russias Defense Ministry says one of its air strikes may have killed Abu Bakr Al Baghdadi. They say the strike which occurred back on may 28th in raqqa hit a meeting of type isis leaders. Joining us live from london, nbc news Foreign Correspondent lucy kafanov. What are you hearing about the air strike . Reporter good morning. The russians claim about 30 high level isis commanders and 300 fighters had gathered to plot their escape from raqqa, also a city under assault by the u. S. And its allies. They say baghdadi was at the meeting on may 28th and sent drones to first monitor the area and dispatched su34 bombers and su35 fighter jets to strike the area. The russian Defense Ministry says theyre trying to verify this info. They say isis leader Abu Bakr Al Baghdadi attended the meeting and was killed in the air strike. No confirmation from the americans and a spokesman from the u. S. Coalition said the u. S. Could not confirm whether baghdadi had been killed. There have been several reports of his death in the past including last weekend when Syrian State Television announced baghdadis death by a u. S. Led strike. Keep in mind he was only publicly seen once, that was back in june 2014 in mosul when his fighters captured the city. His whereabouts have been unknown for quite some time. Theres some reports that suggest hes been hiding in thousands of square miles of desert rather than living in mosul and raqqa where american troops and u. S. Backed forces are fighting. Its not something we can confirm at this stage. Unlike previous leaders, he keeps a low row file and that makes it harder. That would be much more significant if it is confirmed.
