The city of baltimore into turmoil. Nightly news begins right now. The Democratic National convention, this is nbc nightly news with lester holt, reporting tonight from philadelphia. Good evening. Donald trumps attempt to steal away some of the spotlight from whats going on here with the democrats and the Convention May have backfired today. He sparked some serious new controversy when at a free wheeling News Conference in florida he looked into tv cameras and invited a foreign power, russia, to cyber. And expose her emails. Tonight, the Hillary Clinton campaign is claiming trump is encouraging the espionage of america. It goes with the theme tonight as president obama expresses the gravity of being commander in chief. Im not going to tell putin what to do. Why should i tell putin what to do. Donald trump se sending shock waves around the world today encouraging a Foreign Government to hack into clintons email. Russia, if youre li listening, i hope youre able to find the 30,000 emails missing. Trump asked about the 30,000 emails believed to be hacked from the russians instead deleted personal emails from her private serve sneer do you have any qualms about asking russia, china or anybody of fear to hack into a system in this country. Let the president does that not give you pause . It gives me no pause. You know what gives me more pause, that a person in our government, crooked Hillary Clinton. Be quiet. I know you want to save her, that a person in our government, katie, would delete or get rid of 30,000 emails. That gives me a big problem. I find it deeply troubling any american let alone one running for the president of United States would encourage russian espionage. Unprecede unprecedented. While trump was speaking, his campaign blasted out a statement from his running mate, governor mike pence contradi contradicting him saying if russia was interfering i can assure you both parties and the United States government will insure there are serious consequences snchbt b but the republican nominee wasnt swayed tweeting if russia or any other country or person has Hillary Clintons 33,000 deleted emails perhaps they should share them with the fbi. The fbi investigated clintons personal server and recommended no charges be filed. He drew immediate rebewkes, and saying hes either inviting a Foreign Intelligence Service to steal sensitive government information or invi inviting a on for service to invade the privacy of an individual. Privately republicans think what he did today was reprehensible, calling on russia to hack into a private entity. Reporter he will get his First International security briefing that the candidate admits might change things. And he said they should include enhanced interrogation or what many call torture. Lester. Katy tur in miami starting us off. Trump may have grabbed the headlines from democrats today but they will try to make him pay for it, his russia comment offering new lines of attack, as president obama, Vice President biden and vicepresident ial nominee, tim kaine take the stand behind me with high wattage star power. And a preview of what they will say, andrea mitchell. Reporter donalds trumps latest bombshell landing at the Democratic National Convention Just as his critics are blasting him unfit to be the president in chief. Set aside the nuclear codes, what i think is scary is a president who doesnt know their stuff and doesnt seem to have an int in learning what they dont know. Reporter the Vice President on morning joe. Donald trump knows nothing about foreign policy. Reporter clintons running mate. Donald trump is a one man wrecking crew. Reporter the fiery reaction to trump tonight from democrats. That borders on treason. Reporter clintons aides believe this latest firestorm while distracting helps make their case. Donald trump, who is seeking to become our commander in chief is now openly inviting russia to engage in Cyber Attacks to the United States. This is a bridge too far. Reporter tonight, tim kaines debut in primetime but the most critical moment when the commander in chief takes the stage in two days they believe theyve unified the hall and now to persuade a skeptical public at home that Hillary Clinton can be trusted. In the spring of 1971, i met a girl. Reporter trying to portray Hillary Clinton the ultimate washington insider as a candidate of change. Shes the best da darned change maker i ever met in my entire life. Reporter the biggest change of all, her historic role as the first woman to shatter the ultimate political glass ceiling. But tonight, a new complication to their sales pitch on trust. A stumble over the sticky trade issue, the holy grail to Bernie Sanders suppo supporters. When asked if clinton would flipflop on her opposition to the tpp trade deal, her pal, Terry Mcauliffe said, yes, listen, she was in support of it. Reporter they think you are sending a signal she will compromise her commitme commitments. There are things in the agreement she does not agree with, unless she gets things shes not happy with she will not support it, plain and simple. Reporter the question is how is tim kaine received in this big hall in his first debut with many progressives saying he is too conservative on key issues. Lester. Andrea mitchell. Lets bring in our primetime team. Two questions to you, chuck. Did trump offer a slow pitch to speakers tonight and how does this play outside the hall . I think he did. You will probably hear a lot of russia remarks tonight and probably revised remarks, Vice President biden and leon panetta, former head of the cia. On the outside what surprised me today is the lack of collective republican outrage. Theres been some, paul ryan and mike pence and maybe its because trump confla conflated what russia has done with Hillary Clinton and her email issue and conflated it very cleverly. Perhaps republicans are afraid to speak out on this because it looks like theyre helping Hillary Clinton because it looks too partisan. This is a violation of the sovereignty of this country. The idea that there is even tacit encouragement, this was public encouragement of russia doing this. I guess i am floored by the lack of bipartisan outrage. There is some but im surprised they havent dropped the hammer and sickle on him. And to the speakers tonight, barack obama is speaking. You have insight. Will he mention donald trump . He will. Early on it seemed like the president went out of his way not to mention his name and he will call him out and take him on commander in chief and this notion trump considers himself a man of the working people and the style white house uses as authoritarian although the president wont use those words. Im also told this will also be a hopef fful patriotic optimistic speech while he acknowledges the fears and anxieties they have, no doubt they want a contrast between trumps acceptance speech last thursday and what our president has to say and, of course, pass the baton to Hillary Clinton. We will see both of you for our primetime coverage, thank you. A federal judge ruled today, John Hinckley jr. , the would be assassin that shot president reagan in 1991 in a twisted attempt to impress jodie foster can be released from a Mental Hospital after 35 years. That decision not sitting well with the reagan family as our justice correspondent, pete williams, tells us. A federal judge s says 35 years after John Hinckley jr. Shot president reagan and three others outside a washington hotel, hes not the profoundly disturbed 25yearold he was then. Now, at age 61, is no long ear danger to himself or others. Starting next month, hinkley can stop living at the Mental Hospital where hes been treated since 1982, where a jury found him not guilty by reason of insanity and live full time with his 90yearold mother in a gated Community Two hours south of washington where hes been st staying up to 17 days a month. Reagans oldest son, michael tweeted his father forgave hinkley adding maybe we should do the same. Daughter, patty davis said forgiving someone doesnt mean you let them loose in virginia with a dark agenda he may hold dear. Some say theyre worried. Bring him here and put him under the care of his 90yearold mother seems to be a pretty foolish decision. The judge ordered hinkley to continue psychiatric treatment, get a job or do volunteer work and stay away from government officials and have no contact with the reagan family or jodie foster, the actress he was trying to impress by shooting president reagan. If all goes well, hinkley can start living on his own a year from now. The man who prosecuted hinkley says that should never happen. I dont think anybody who tries to nullify a National Election with a bullet should be walking free no matter their state. They say the Mental Health system and the courts worked well.

There were dramatic developments today involving the baltimore Police Officer s accused of causing a fatal injury to freddie gray, man who died in their custody last year. After failing to secure guilty verdicts against four officers brought to trial, prosecutor s dropped the charges as the prosecutor suggested the legal system worked against her. Reporter caught on video last year, the arrest of 25yearold freddie gray, pushed into the back of a police van. Just an hour later he was rushed to the hospital with a broken neck. His death touched off weeks of unrest and riots in baltimore and federal investigation into police brutality. We have probable cause to file criminal charges. Reporter the newly elected baltimore prosecutor quickly filed charges against six officers. After four trials and no convictions, today the prosecutor dropped the remaining cases while accusing the police and Justice System of undermining her case. There was a reluctance and an obvious bias that was consistently exemplified not by the entire Baltimore Police department, but by individuals within the Baltimore Police department at every stage of the investigation. Reporter but many legal experts have long questioned the charges. I feel like the prosecutors were overreaching from day one and she was as indignant and defiant at the end as she was in the beginning of this case. The case helped energize the National Black lives Matter Movement with demonstrations in ci cities across the country and a group of mothers taking the stage at the dnc last night. This is about saving our children. Reporter today, naacp leaders suggested the case had led to changes in police procedures. Because of what she did, the states attorney bringing charges, now we have cameras in the van. Reporter in a peaceful baltimore today, a mixed reaction. The prosecuted them or brought charges up maybe to stop the ri riots. I dont think anything will change in this city, weve been the same way for many years.

Out of many, one. Reporter hes electrified the party faithful. America, we cannot turn back. We are moving forward, america. Reporter but there is perhaps no more critical speech than the one hell deliver tonight for Hillary Clinton. This time his legacy is also on the line.
