The matter for now. Were live in south korea with the latest. And later, our sunday sitdown with Julia Louisdreyfus. Whats new on veep, her role. And doing political satire in the days of donald trump. We all make fun of the other guy. Our sunday sitdown. And harry smith a bit later in the show. Lets begin this morning with Vice President pence arrives hours ago in south korea where tensions are high after north korea test fired a Ballistic Missile that exploded just moments after launch. Good morning. Reporter good morning, willie. Just hours after a massive military parade of missiles and hardware, north korea carried out a missile test, firing whats believed to be a medium rung or Ballistic Missile from its east coast. U. S. Officials confirms for nbc news that it failed. That it detected the launch, traced it. And it blew up almost immediately. And this came just after kim jongun had paraded his arsenal through. In his parade he had showed up what appeared to be a new type of intercontinental Ballistic Missile designed to reach the United States. Now that north korea launched something is not a surprise. Theres been speculation that Nuclear Tests were in the works. Whats unclear is the reaction to it particularly from the u. S. President trump has said that north korea is a problem that will be dealt with. But so far on this test, hes been quiet. With only a brief statement acknowledging its failure from the defense secretarygeneral james madis. Vice president mike pence is in a tenday tour of the region. Hes in seoul now and meets with south korean officials about u. S. Security concerns. So far, willie, he has barely acknowledged this test. His spokesman said frankly the response is not worth extending the resources so this whob the official White House Position to deny north korea the attention its seeking. Were seeing less brash white house on this. Jane, thank you so much. Ju juan, thank you for being with us. Grng mop. We did see this massive parade through pyongyang with what some experts are saying a volume of missiles they didnt think narc actually had yesterday. But then thats followed but by a missile test. What should we take away from what we saw in north korea . I think we have a regime displaying its power. A whole range of missiles to include three types icbms, intercotton mental Ballistic Missiles. Even though the failed missile test is an embarrassment, it wasnt the nuclear test that many were anticipatinging. It does demonstrate this is a regime that continues on its march. As well as a nuclear program. So the clock is ticking here. And i think the military operated was an attempt to demonstrate strength internal any and externally. Juan, i want to take a step back for our viewers and ask you how you feel about north korea. Many people over the years has said its a paper tiger propped up only from the generosity of china. You see the tests again and again, you look at what Ambassador Nikki Haley has said that north korea is the absolute number one threat to the United States. How do you think about north korea . I think north korea is the National Security wildcard. It presents the deepest and most dangerous problems. You have a rogue state thats developing Nuclear Components thats been shown to be willing to take both south korea and the world to the brink of war. And that even if it doesnt have the latest capabilities, the maximum capabilities, certainly has conventional capabilities that could do huge damage to seoul. And it is a regime that is so sort of unnerved that can create instability in the region. And so, this is a real problem. And the clock is ticking. The clock is really ticking here on the program. And youve seen the Trump Administration trying to change the calculus a bit. Saying we dont have time for strategy of strategic patience anymore. Thats why youve seen them trying to not only pressure china, but also position forces in a way to change the dynamics. Weve seen Vice President pence over there in seoul. Weve seen President Trump trying to exert influence on china. Asking them to do something about korea. What options does the United States have here . Well, the United States has several options obviously working with its allies, south korea, japan working with china and russia to try to pressure and restrain the regime. The goal here is to try to slow if not stop the nuclear advancements. And the big ticket here, can we get china which is the lifeline for the north korean regime, economically, diplomatically, even militarily, at the end of the day, can we get china to exert influence . Are they willing . And at the end of the day are they capable of changing the regimes behavior. Thats why youve seen so much focus on china itself as a linchpin in terms of changing what happens on the korean peninsula. Happy easter to you. Happy easter to you. President trump is dealing with backlash over another issue here at home. Nbcs Kelly Odonnell live in West Palm Beach on his easter morning with us. Kelly, good morning. Reporter good morning, willie. Just picking up on your conversation, the president does have his deputy National Security visor here hes spoken with military leaders and the Vice President on World Affairs but this does not free the president of heat at home with protests around the country venting frustrations. Peaceful, it was not. In brooklyn, california, saturday clashes between demonstrators both for and against the president. Angry words. Scuffles, emotions boiled over. A string of arrests. While that got out of hand, a more focused message around the country were marching to demand that donald trump lease his tax returns. Reporter organized protests promoted as tax marches brought people together. Somebodys got to start to hold this man accountable. Reporter armed with signs and celebrity sightings. Actress Debra Messing in new york. We want to see his tax returns . Why . Because we want to see what they show. Reporter reporter democratic politicians took on the president. It was resistance that did that. When we fight, we can win. Reporter in President Trumps florida backyard, West Palm Beach. Every other president has shown their tax returns i think theres something that they wants to hide. Reporter in washington, d. C. , marchers went past monuments. As candidate trump he refused and claim head would open his books when irs completes its audits. Does answer the audit is finished, it will be released. Reporter the president maintains he shar s will he paye of tax. But white house officials now say dont hold your breath waiting to see his w2s. Hes not going to release his tax returns. We litigated this all through the election. People didnt care. They voted for him. Reporter and just a note, willie. The president we know is an avid user of twitter but he seems to have had a president ial pause. He tweeted friday early in the day and not at all on saturday. Of course it is easter sunday. There is no official schedule for the president , but there is an expectation that he will likely change Church Services with his family. They do belong to a church here in palm beach where he and melania were married and barron was baptized. Willie. Weve become accustomed to those saturday morning tweets. Nothing on this easter weekend. Kelly, thank you. Chuck todd is moderate of meet the press. Chuck, good morning. Good morning, willie. Lets pick up the question of tax returns its a question that has kungs over donald trump since he got into the campaign two years ago. Almost laughed at the suggestion, we dont have to put outer our tax returns. Weve said it every president since Richard Nixon has put out his tax returns. Is there any new pressure that he might actually provide information what hes doing in his Business Life . Look. If we ever see his tax returns and i do think we will at some point, it is going to be because some Government Entity forced them into the public square. Right. Is it a subpoena from one of the russian investigations on capitol hill . Thats possible. Or is it a movement among, you know, there have been some state legislatures that have proposed the idea of tying a release of the tax returns to the ability to get on the ballot to run. So, maybe it doesnt happen until 2020. And he files for reelection in various states. Maybe one of those states that have a Democratic Legislature forces it that way. But i think were going to see it. I dont think he will ever voluntarily do it. I think if it happens it will be some Government Entity that forces it. A reminder the irs said he could put them out despite the fact that he says hes under audit. President trump said barack obama was the least transparent president of all time. He talked about draining the swamp. Changing the way things are done in washington, d. C. But on friday, it was announced that the white house would not make public its visitor logs. Can you explain why that is important, chuck and why they are made public historically . Well look, its only recently, willie, has president obama was the first one to reless those visitor logs. But they had a lot of exceptions there there were ways, there were plenty of logs that didnt get released that they had different waivers that people would get oh, no, this cant be public, this cant be public. It was sometimes transparent. But it was more than that had ever been done before. The argument that the white house made before, saying this wasnt fully transparents. Yeah, its better than before and future president s wont be away with getting away with it. At the end of the day, if they didnt face the pressure to face tax returns why do you think theyre going to freely the pressure to do this. Chuck, happy easter to you, my friend. We will be watching meet the press where chuck is joined by jack reid, john kelly and senator john mccain. Tens of thousands of christians have flocked to the vatican to celebrate easter mass. And hear pope francis deliver the message from the balcony of bat si basilica. And the worlds most talked about giraffe april finally has given birth to a little male calf.

We congratulate april on her successful delivery at long last. And speaking of recent successful deliveries, dylan dreyer is here. Nice easter weekend weve been enjoying. Most of the country enjoying really nice warm temperatures. Weve got this area of low pressure sitting here bermuda. Its a bermuda high and that southwest wind helps to warm up temperatures 20 to 30 degrees above average. New york, 34, boston, 32. Columbus ohio, high of 74. Even chicago in the lower 70s today, heading farther south. Temperatures not as warm, above average, still above nonetheless with temperatures in the lower 80s. We do have a cool front which is eventually going to cool things down. Hail would be the biggest threat and of course the lightning and heavier downpours will be a concern. Something to keep anye out e easter. I am first alert meteorologist, krystal klei. The forecast for today, 85 degrees in center city, and low 80s for the lehigh valley. Allentown at 82 degrees.

A new company established by metlife to specialize in annuities life insurance. Talk to your advisor about a brighter financial future. All right, dylan and i are ready to whip through the highs and lows of the week, shall we . Lets do it. The first high goes to President Trumps high opinion of the ders certificate menu at his maralago asset in florida. Last week, the president welcomed china cheese president xi. President trump interrupted to sign off on the air strike on syria. He gave a play by play taking time to highlight the big beautiful dessert. I was sitting at the table. We had finished dinner. Were now having dessert. And we had the most beautiful piece of chocolate cake that youve ever seen. And president xi was enjoying it. And i said, mr. President , let me explain something to you. This is during dessert. I said, weve Just Launched 59 missiles heading to iraq. Headed to syria . Yes, heading toward syria. He got so caught up talking about the beautiful dessert, the chocolate cake but we know what he meant, he meant syria. But in the middle of an air strike, obviously a very serious thing to talk about, to pause and plug the dessert menu at your club. Its extraordinary. Im curious to taste the chocolate cake. Well, it was big. Apparently there was a vanilla glaze. You had to see the chinese president with this cake, amazing. The first logos to the way one brother and sister felt this week about punishment handed down by their mother. After an apparent fight between the two. Mom decided not to send them to the room separately or take away the ipad for the rest of the night. She was much more creative than most of us. All this mom needed is a tshirt and a slow jam. Im going to make you all hold hands now. You can hear mom telling them they need to hold hands when they slow dance. I will say, you have kids they look like 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, between the two of them, that range, you do sort of have to get creative with new ways. I think thats a harmless punishment. Nobody wants to do it again. And they were completely miss rabl miserable . Is that right. The next high goes to 7yearold jonessa ride of utah. Her school was holding a crazy hair day. Jonessa suffers from al peachia. A condition her mom noticed in january. Before long, she had lost all of her beautiful brown hair. What do you do on crazy hair day . Well, mom had a plan. Moms always have a plan. Together, mother and daughter decorated jonessas head with jewel stickers and a beautiful bling owl. She doesnt wear wigs they make her head itch. The sparkly look much cooler anyway. Her classmates loved. She won the contest and the school renamed the celebration crazy head day. She said i was sad at first when i lost my hair but now i love being bald. I can do things that other kids cant do. I just love the mom. Moms are the best. You always find a solution for your kid. So cool. Our final logos to the sag in the middle of mc hammers genie pants in the 80s. Were in the spirit thanks to San Jose University assistant football coach Alonzo Carter who also happened to be alonzos lead dancer back in the day. Tapping the magic of the 1990 mega hit of you cant touch this. Cant touch this youre just waiting noor moment there. All of the coaches are so psyched they just got up and ran away. I like the guy in the back jumping with excitement. Funny thing, none of those kids on that team, kids theyre in college. Were alive then. If he broke out and danced it, they didnt know what the dance is. Who is this guy . Coming up next, our sunday sitdown with julia sitdown with Julia Louisdreyfus from snl to when you have moderate to severe ulcerative colitis, sitdown with Julia Louisdreyfus from snl to the unpredictability of a flare may weigh on your mind. Thinking about what to avoid, where to go, and how to work around your uc. Thats how i thought it had to be. But then i talked to my doctor about humira, and learned humira can help get and keep uc under control. When certain medications havent worked well enough. Humira can lower your ability to fight infections, including tuberculosis. Serious, sometimes fatal infections and cancers, including lymphoma, have happened; as have blood, liver, and nervous system problems, serious allergic reactions, and new or worsening heart failure. Before treatment, get tested for tb. Tell your doctor if youve been to areas where certain fungal infections are common and if youve had tb, hepatitis b, are prone to infections, or have flulike symptoms or sores. Dont start humira if you have an infection. Raise your expectations and ask your gastroenterologist if humira may be right for you. With humira, control is possible.

Oh, mary, you always make me laugh. Ooh. Offstage. It was a dog eat dog world. A lot of drugs and stuff, too. It wasnt very female friendly. I was so sort of dumb and green. I didnt realize it was so gr druggy. All of these sketches would be 18 pages long and writers going about how funny it was. And you met a guy named larry david . I did. He was just as miserable as i was and he bonded over that. Im not kidding. Reporter writer larry david had created a show about nothing. The feedback and pilot was not very good. I dont really know. Theres a famous line there that jerry and larry held up on on the wall, about no segment of the audience wanted to see the show again.

Stella and did you feel turn at some point along the run and say this is a different show now . I guess i felt the turn when they put us on thursday nights.

And then behind. You know, behind the curtain. Whats really going on. And i think thats the appeal. Reporter to understand what it takes to be the countrys number two, julia met with Vice President s al gore and joe biden. Both Hillary Clinton and the Late Supreme Court Justice Antonin Scalia are counted as many fans in washington. When you went off the air in season five, june of last year. Yes. It would have been safe for a reasonable person to assume that Hillary Clinton was going to be the next president of the United States. She did not become the next president of the United States. She didnt . What happened . Ive got to get on social media. How did that change about the way you felt about this show. For a minute it lapped our world i will say on election day because we all in fact did think it was going to go a certain way. We have two great things going for us in this show.

A United Airlines passenger ripped from his seat dragged bloody off a planehow did air travel get so bad . And who a week ago today, dr. David dao, boarded united flight 3411 at Chicagos Ohare International airport headed home, he thought to louisville. But its how he left the plane that sparked outrage around the world. Dr. Daos attorney said this week, dao suffered a concussion, a broken nose and lost two teeth when he was dragged out of the seat he had paid for so traveling united employees could take his place. Most of us have never been bloodied that way in a flight, but the incident set off a conversation about just how unpleasant air travel has become.

Reporter so what happened, some of the most profound changes to aviation came after 9 11. After the airlines struggled to survive, they cut the size of their planes to fit the passengers that would fly. With so many mergers fewer to choose before. An Airline Passenger advocate says we the customers share the blame. Whats happened to the travel experience over the last 20 years . I think we can all say that Customer Service has really suffered. And a lot of that comes from the consumers demand for lower prices. Reporter we all want to pay the cheapest possible to get from point a positive point b . Right.

But would it be possible to redesign the entire airline experience. From the moment you buy your ticket to the moment youre back home, the founder of airbnb the company that changed the Hotel Industry tells willie its possible. What if the plane felt a little more like the home in the sky. What if the fierce getting there was almost seamless, going through the airport . I think all of these are design switches. This week, united announced a change to its policy. Its crew members no longer will be allowed to take the seat of a passenger who already has boarded the plane.

Thats how the light gets in. The repairs and mending that happens in repair cafe often go beyond the physical. Barbara lane remembers repairing a certain piece of jewelry.
