So glad youre with us. All you thousands of people here to see ed sheeran. This is an enormous crowd. They have been lining up for about a day now. The line goes down 48th street, down 6th avenue past radio city music hall, through the lincoln tunnel to the jersey shore. Thats a bit of an exaggeration but its a big crowd. Will treat us to a concert in a few. We have a lot of news to get to first. Lets start with breaking news overpass. The president speaking out in poland on day one of his much anticipated trip abroad. The president with some harsh words for russia, north korea and the american press. Weve got it all covered with nbc National Correspondent Peter Alexander who is traveling with the president in warsaw, poland. Peter, good morning to you. Reporter hey, matt and savannah, good morning to you. President trump during a News Conference addressing two of his domestic obsessions, fake news and what he says was his big electoral win with polish americans. But the real focus is much farther east, north korea. In the wake of that rogue regimes test of intercontinental ballistic missile, the president calling on the International Community to show that there are consequences for north koreas dangerous behavior. President trump this morning enjoying a warm welcome at the role castle with polands president but eyeing the growing crisis with north korea, vowing to take the threat on very strongly. The president and i call on all nations to confront this global threat and publicly demonstrate to north korea that there are consequences for their very bad behavior. Whats the u. S. Considering. I dont like to talk about what i have planned, but i have some pretty severe things that were thinking about. That doesnt mean were going to do them. I dont draw red lines. President obama drew a red line, and i was the one that made it look a little bit better than it was. The comments coming after mr. Trumps tweeting expressing unwillingness of beijing to pressure the regime. So much for china working for us. At an emergency meeting at the u. N. Security Council Ambassador nikki haley warning the u. S. Is prepared to act. One of our capabilities lies with our considerable military. Meanwhile arriving for g20 later today the president has a full plate, oneonone with Angela Merkel and dinner with leaders of japan and south korea that today fired a barrage of missiles off the east coast is part of another military exercise. But the trips main event will be President Trumps first ever facetoface with Vladimir Putin. Were working with poland in response to russias actions and destabilizing behavior. Nbcs hal ex jackson asking repeatedly about moscows meddling during the election. Will you once and for all, yes or no, definitively say russia interfered in the 2016 election. I think it was russia and it could have been other people in other countries. Mistakes have been made. I agree, i think it was russia, but i think it was probably other people and or countries, and i see nothing wrong with that statement. Nobody really knows. Reporter thats how the News Conference ended. White house officials have not said whether President Trump will raise the issue of russias role in the 2016 election during his conversation with Vladimir Putin tomorrow. Back here in warsaw, here is a live picture where the president a short time electric now will be delivering what the white house describes as a major speech in front of the memorial to the warsaw uprising. A rallying cry for western civilization. The president expected to address determination. Will say in part, the fundamental question of our time is whether the west has the will to survive. Savannah, back to you. Peter alexander starting us off in warsaw. Lets turn to Nicolle Wallace for analysis. Lets talk about north korea first. Were going to hear how fraught the options are with michael. In terms of the president s mindset, we hear this tough talk. Is the white house really prepared to take action that president s before have decided arent worth the risk. Looks like the military are counseling him to do so because of how grim and grave the military options are, but the president s messaging seems to have that in mind, in that hes using that as the stick to entice china to eat the carrots. Lets talk about russia. Obviously friday is the big meeting with Vladimir Putin, who is known as a master manipulator. This guy studies up, he knows his subject. He certainly will know how to press the president s buttons. How should the president prepare for this . Listen, if Donald Trumps brand is author of art of the deal Vladimir Putin brand is former kgb spy master. This is where the rubber meets the road with everything donald trump thinks he can do to an adversary, Vladimir Putin has done it and then some. The white house that successfully lowered the bar so low, if it was any lower it would be underground. Hes winging it. I dont buy that. Obviously they have a plan to exceed expectations, which are less than nothing. The fact hes going into a meeting as a representative of this country that he hasnt affirm he will do what jeremy bash describes as poking a finger in his chest, hey, when it comes to our democracy, ive got this, vlad, is disturbing. Hallie jacksons question was meant to manage expectations saying he will take it to russia a little bit. The fact he insists on throwing other people in the mix when we know that isnt the case continues to be a disturbing sign this cloud about collusion with russia will hang over him no matter where he stands. So many clouds over the world stage, russia, north korea, to say nothing of sis. Turn it over to matt. What options on the table when it comes to President Trump when it comes to north korea. Were joined by terrorism analyst michael leitner. Good to see you. Lets talk about high this test of icbm was game changing. Not so much they fear north koreans will attack us first but will now or soon have the ability to retaliate for actions we take or our allies take. Thats exactly right, matt. They have had a Nuclear Weapon since 2006, no attempt to miniaturize it, send it to the homeland. What this shows they have the missile ability to reach. That takes options off the table for United States. Lets talk about the options still on the table. The first one is called a military or surgical strike. What would it look like . What would the targets be . This is hard. You can go after mobile Missile Launchers or other sites in north korea other nuclear facilities. But the problem is they are deeply hidden and we are very vulnerable to counterattack. There are enormous risks associated with any military strike we conduct. Thats right, win 50 million miles you have koreans, americans, japan, this is really hard. This is a bad option at the moment. Lets talk about sanctions. Weve imposed sanctions for years yet kim jongun acts badly. High arent they working . 85 to 90 of north koreas trade is with china and china hasnt clamped down p until we get china to do that on oil and other critical matters, they probably wont. Remember, they have the materials to fight a conventional war and build additional weapons. Weve also seen them be aggressive on the cyber front as well in the u. S. And the region. So sanctions keep us vulnerable as well. This is why you hear people say these are bad options, sanctions and military strike, so what about diplomacy. Why dont we sit down facetoface with north koreans and talk about these issues. Isnt that what kim jongun is looking for . He probably is. Were getting closer and closer to be willing to. I think at this point we cant get into his provocation. On that front we have to make clear were going to continue this training with the south koreans and show we are one because kim jongun wants to separate us from south korea. Eventually we may simply have to accept were going to live with Nuclear Armed korea the same way we are with others. Facetoface diplomacy, what message does that send to other rogue regions who say, wait a second, if i act badly, i can get facetoface negotiations. Absolutely. What we have to do with all diplomacy, happened in hand with south korea and japan and make sure china moves along with us and doesnt align with north korea. All right. Important information, michael. Thank you very much as always. Savannah. All right.

Lets take a look at stories making headlines today. The president peg out overpass acknowledging it was the russians who meddled in our elections last year. He also addressed escalating threat from north korea. Its day one of his overseas trip. He said north korea behaved dangerously. All this as he prepares to leave for g20 summit and meeting with Vladimir Putin tomorrow. An emotional vigil wednesday night. New yorkers paid respect to fallen Police Officer Miosotis Familia who was killed sitting in her vehicle. They are looking for a motive for that unprovoked attack. Steve scalise readmitted overnight. He was shot during a congressional baseball game three weeks ago. Hes now fighting an infection. Theres an outpouring of support on social media and hes certainly in our thoughts this morning. Lets talk about a story we did on the show yesterday. It got an awful lot of attention, captivated the world. Here onned today show we talked about it, a photograph from the History Channel which suggests Amelia Earhart and her navigator survived the crash in the pacific 80 years ago but were arrested by japanese military. Tom costello broke that story with the History Channel. Hes back with even more evidence this morning. Tom, what else do you have . Good morning. Were now hearing from the last living person who may have seen earhart alive in japanese custody. Shes now 91 years old. History channel investigators have uncovered evidence youll see here that u. S. Government that the u. S. Government had indications earhart was being held captive. This morning with world headlines filled with that photo unearthed by the History Channel, more evidence Amelia Earhart and navigator fred noonan may have survived a crash landing in 1937. The worlds most famous found in a secret military file in the national archives. Retired fbi veteran shawn henry, now an nbc news analyst, took it to facial recognition expert for analysis. Starting on the left, fred noonan. The hairline, a sharp receding hairline. The nose is very prominent. The teeth are just in the right place and the nose is in the right place. Are you kidding me . Thats fred noonan. Then the woman sitting on the dock. The hair is too long for a man and too short for a woman who is a native. It looks like shes even wearing pants. That itself could be evidence. Few women in the world wore pants in 1937, certainly not many pacific islanders. Without a face to work from, gibson conducted body measurements comparing older photos of earhart. So were looking at the distance from the top of her head to her under arms, underarms to waist. Looking at this, these three points line up. To find a caucasian woman with those measurements sitting on the dock, its unusual. Look, shes looking at cornerba koshu, towing the plane. Compared with the haircut to the last known photo of earhart when she took off. Experts say they crashed in the marshalls and were taken to a prison in saipan. A 12yearold who lived in saipan at the time insisted she saw earhart in custody. She may have been the last person to see her alive. I didnt know it was a woman. I thought it was a man. Everybody was talking about her. They were talking in japanese. Thats why i know shes a woman. They are talking about woman flyer. Also discovered in the national archives, this catalog of government files on earhart referencing 170 pages, including information that earhart was a prisoner in the marshall islands. But that document is missing. We believe the United States government knew Amelia Earhart was in the marshalls and was in japanese custody. For a distant earhart relative, it all confirms that amelia was an american hero. I do think its her in the photograph. I think she was the embodiment of the american spirit, the sense of adventure. I think she did amazing things. There are skeptics who say the photo isnt clear enough to know if its noonan and earhart, earhart could not have flown that far off course, didnt have the fuel to fly that fuel. The history team believes she did have the fuel, did fly that far off course, they lay it out in the documentary and the story is consistent with what locals said for decades. The twohour documentary is sunday at 9 00. Guys, back to you. Tom, thank you. Cant get enough of that. Thanks to tom for doing the story. Shawn henry, one of our favorites on the story anyway has done a great job putting this together with the History Channel. So interesting to see him bring fbi expertise to a project like that. New assignment, loch ness monster. Get on it. A check of the weather . Storms back through minneapolis st. Paul through wisconsin. We do have severe thunderstorm watches and severe thunderstorm warnings this morning. Also flash flood warnings. The storms are weakening a bit but still have potential for downpours, large hail and damaging winds as well. Then well see storms continue through the afternoon, especially wisconsin. This enhanced area in dark orange here, thats where we could see the possibility of hail and damaging winds. We cant rule out an isolated tornado with supercells. Its all out ahead of this cold front sagging to the south and east. Then eventually will bring scattered showers and storms across upstate new york and back across pennsylvania as we go through friday afternoon and some of those storms have potential to be severe. Not an outbreak but supercells could develop. Meantime, heavy rain across washington, d. C. Maryland through the morning and spottyhowers and s s good morning. Im bill henley. Wet weather moving in this morning and it will be with us this afternoon and theres a chance well see some thunderstorms most likely later this morning and this afternoon in delaware. 76 degrees the High Temperature there. Showers in the Lehigh Valley, 76, a chance of some late day thunderstorms and the thunderstorms will reach into new jersey too at the shore. Showers will keep temperatures in the 70s and occasional showers for the suburbs in philadelphia. 70s this afternoon. Warmer weather returns for tomorrow. Have a great day.

Until now, teslas were luxury cars reserved for the wealth y, some with sixfigure price tags. With the model 3, the Company Hopes to bring electric vehicles to the masses, a car that can travel 215 miles in a single charge. This is really important for the future of the world.

Just this morning President Trump in his remarks to the people of warsaw here touted his support from polish americans back home and emphasized the Strong Alliance between the two countries. But his biggest headlines came even earlier today. His First Press Conference overseas where he hinted at consequences for north korea. And just a day before that crucial meeting with the russian president seemed to cast doubt on the intelligence assessment that moscow interfered in our election. A warm warsaw welcome for President Trump. America loves poland, and america loves the polish people. Thank you. His remarks in kaczynski square coming in his First Press Conference overseas where he took aim at north korea. There are consequences for their very, very bad behavior. The president sharp but not specific. I dont like to talk about what i have planned. But i have some pretty severe things that were thinking about. That doesnt mean were going to do them. Hell now head to hamburg for g20 summit and ahead of that critical first facetoface with Vladimir Putin declined to definitively say russia meddled with our election. Will you once and for all, yes or no, definitively say russia interfered in 2016 election . I think it was russia. I think it could have been other people in other countries. It could have been a lot of people interfered. I said it very simply. I think it could very well have been russia but i think it could well have been other countries. I wont be specific. On foreign soil slamming his predecessor, former president obama. He did nothing about it. The reason is he thought hillary was going to win. If he thought i was going to win, he would have done plenty about it. But president obama described confronting putin personally back in september. Mr. President , you again say you think it was russia. Your intelligence agencies have been far more definitive, they would it was russia. Why wont you agree with them and say it was. Mistakes have been made. I agree. I think it was russia, but i think it was probably other people and or countries, and i see nothing wrong with that statement. Nobody really knows. Nobody really knows for sure. And President Trump in that News Conference also blasted several news outlets, something weve seen him do plenty of back home. Hes now headed off to hamburg, germany, and has a full plate there. Hes got a oneonone meeting with german chancellor Angela Merkel who made no secret the talks could get a little tense. Tonight its dinner with leaders of japan and south korea with north korea sure to be on the menu. Savannah. Absolutely. Hallie jackson traveling with the president. Thank you.

Weve got a surprising look at life through childrens eyes. Thats right. Thanks to social cues and stereotypes the way they see themselves can affect their aspirations as young as age six. Megyn kelly is here. The story is fascinating. Fascinating or depressing. Hi, everybody. Even as gender roles are changing slowly. A study from nyu and princeton is showing some negative stereotypes exist, especially with our girls. The results so eyeopening, we wanted to go check it out for ourselves. Are you smart . Are you . Im like this smart. Medium . Youre smart. Are you very smart or medium smart. Very smart. Do little girls think they are just as smart as boys . That is the question that drove nyu psychologist and princeton philosophers latest research. For the study 400 boys and girls, ages 5 to 7, answered questions. Why little children . Why did you go to the 5yearold, 6yearold and 7yearolds. We know children are incredible social sponges. They soak up all the cues in their environments. If these exist in their environment, they are like italy to pick up on them. Sit in the red chair. To demonstrate how it was done we recruited 26 children in a school in a new york suburb using the same method as and under the guidance of the lead researcher and her team. Take a look. Im looking at a picture of a child now. The child in this picture can always answer even the hardest question from the teacher. Is this child smart, not smart, are you not sure . Smart. Smart. Thats exactly right. Im going to tell you some stories. Then they were told a story with no gender assigned. So there are lots of people at the place i work. But there is one person who is really smart. Can you guess which one is really, really smart . Kids had to choose who was smart, the man or the woman. Which one do you think it is . The results were surprising, especially to mothers of young girls. I can see the boys at that age picking boys, because they are boys, but at this point the girls also. We need to address this problem. We need to address it now. Stereotypes about who can be smart, they are limiting our little girls choices, aspirations, believes about what they can and cant do with their lives. Its starting at age six. If were having a discussion about college kids, 18, thats 12 years of being guided by these stereotypes. And its too late. Its too late. The researchers found subtle changes and perceptions about who is smart start at a very young age. The studys authors insist, shocker, average iq of boys and girls happen to be identical. Was it overwhelming . Did the girls continuously pick males. Lets just say youll be crying in your suit. Theres a plan, whether were raising boys or girls or members of society, the messages were sending to our children are a little off. Have to pound it in their heads. I have a two and fouryearold girl and every day i try to say theres nothing you cant do. You can do anything. What are the messages they are soaking up. I dont want to give away the whole story but let me say its not just up to you. Whatever messaging youre giving your child, its not up to you. Wait um you see how baked into society this message is. And the action plan afterwards. Book smarts and common sense smarts, too. I feel lying that could change things. Absolutely. These four very smart women are going to stick around with these two medium smart guys here. By the way, you can see the rest of omemegyns story sunday night. The plug. Yesterday in new york city there was a bit of a scare. Some construction workers were digging down in the flat iron area when they pulled up this. They pulled up this. What do you think that is . A rocket ship. A bomb. They thought it was a bomb, a missile, some kind of ordnance from world war ii. They shut down the area, evacuated some Office Buildings there, only to discover what it actually was. Its a time capsule filled with some old documents, which got us thinking a couple of things. First of all, who would design a time capsule that looks like a bomb . Make it look like a buttermilk doughnut or something friendly. Most likely taken to the police range and destroyed. Also got me thinking, what would you if we were going to create personal time capsules, what wn item would you put in the time capsule. Something to represent 2017 america . No, you, you personally. What would you personally put in there . Something with my kids and some spanx. One item. Spanx. Really, thats what were all about. I dont know. I got a signed masters visor from Arnold Palmer to me. That might be it. I was thinking about this yesterday. I would want to put pictures in. I dont have actual pictures. I have to put a laptop in to see the pictures. I dont know if well be able to see these pictures. Is it like something that reflects you . Create a personal time capsule with one thing. I only have one thing that matters in my life now. So i think what i would do is all the pregame journal scribbling to haley. I would probably want to save that, the pregame before i got here. Shes the only thing i can think of now when i think of something. Thats it. Thats what all of us would do. I dont know. Maybe some starbucks instant coffee, just for the future. I think people would really appreciate that. I would put my iphone in there because its got everything, all my pictures. Long gone. Fidget spinner. Real quickly. If we were creating a time capsule for the today show that would best let people know in some future century what the today show was about. Thats right. I may still be here. Ill tell you what what would you put, matt. A script from pop start happening now. Were going to start with gorge and amal stepping out for the first tile with their twins. The new parents avoided cameras since they arrived in the world. The twins were born back in early june you might recall. There are photos of the couple with the twins in tow. George and amal can be seen getting out of the plane each holding a baby carrier. They landed in milan, italy, where the couple has their home. Too bad they are roughing it. Ryan reynolds voiced support for a fan who needed to get back at her ex. Gabby posted these photos on twitter explaining she and her boyfriend broke up a couple days after prom. She decided to photo shop and replace his face with Ryan Reynolds. Ryan reynolds responded, we should replace his year book picture with me. Dontmesswithgabi. If you didnt know, one of your songs became the most streamed song in the uk. This incredible. Anybody know the answer . He put out two songs for divide record, shape of you.

How about that, people. The woman with a cup in her hand. In the back ground, man, unbelievable. Cool. Cute. Were going to walk ed over there and talk to him in a second.

Did you have that kind of expectation going into releasing the album . No. I wanted the record over time to be considered better than the first two. Yeah, for that amount to happen all at once was pretty were all very shocked. It took a year kind of out of the spotlight. Its not like you were doing nothing, working on your music and chilling a little, as my son would say. What was the best part of that time . It was quite a weird thing. I had been touring for five years. It was a weird thing waking up and being like i have to do something today. Wait, no, i dont, actually. Getting my head around that. Making the album was great fun.

As a human being, we always read the one negative one and ignore the others. I dont want to do that.

Can i just tell you something, he looks like hes really happy to hold that microphone. Hes comfortable, ready to do standup. Ladies and gentlemen, deans son. Im not ed sheeran. Hes here. We walked around last night, rockefeller center, and there were people camped out living on the street, just laid out for blocks. The police said 12,000 people to see ed this morning. Are you serious . When i came in this morning, i came from uptown, its on 49th, stop on 48th, we saw all these people lined up around 57th. You have to picture new york city blocks are really long. You know what, that must be Something Else going on. Theres no way they would be that far down. It was for ed sheeran. We got to meet him before he did his thing down there. Nicest guy in the world. Sweet, down to earth. Talking about earlier his family keeps him grounded, his dad would smack him around if his head got too big. I smack my son around. Too big. Hes tall. Dont let him talk. So cute. No. I feel like we keep cutting him off. Thats all right. You guys talk, ill just jump in whenever. You have a thought, chris, you just jump right in. Sweating, its unfamily, kid, stuff. Youll see, you two. Were not there yet. Almost. It was pretty cool for you to be able to take him outside. A picture with him. Amazing. Walked around last night, great. First time hes been in new york for a long time for him. So fun. Ed is so talented. Its crazy. To watch what he does where he has that whole machine thing he uses where he makes one sound and puts that in, then another. Every time i see it, its so fascinating. We keep saying over and over how grounded he is. If you put it in perspective, people come, sometimes they go into the dressing room and close the doors, which is completely fine. Me, do i that. Diva. Warmups, stay in there. He was just out and about chilling, normal. By the way, hes going to perform supermarket flowers a little later for us. Yes.

This is easy. I like a man with a full head of hair. It is hard to come by. I dont know how many out there dating, it is so hard to find a man with a full head of hair. When you find one its like a man with a unicorn. I would like to find a man with a full head of hair. My dad is in his 70s and has a full head of hair. If i could find a full head of hair, i would be so happy. A good mop of hair. Im in good shape there. Good. Date number two. Who in your family are you closest with and why . Thats a tough one, dean. I have two beautiful children that are the love of my life that i literally eat, sleep, and breathe for.

I know its sort of cheating but i have to say my daughter ariel, son, my mom watching and my daddy. Smart. Didnt leave anybody out. Smart. A family woman. Yes. Date number three. What were you like as a kid . Well, as a kid, i was very empathetic. I would cry if anyone was getting made fun of at school. I would make people laugh. I was a bit of a class clown and kind of got into trouble here and there for it, but i still enjoyed making people laugh. Funny girl, number three. All right. Now we have questions that have come from our team. Your team. Our producers. Probably better than my questions then. Okay. Wow, this is not my question but it is the producer question. Date number one, if you could have any superpower, what would it be and why . Okay. Well, if i had any superpower, i would like to have super human strength, because i am very small. So if i could move buildings, that would crack everybody up and be so amazing. So that would be my power i would love to have. Uhhuh. Mighty mouse. Date number two. Supermans day job was a reporter. So if you were a magazine or newspaper, which one would you be and why . Okay. So i would have to say people magazine. Not because i think im a celebrity or deserving to be in the magazine because of what im wearing or Something Like that. But i always, always try to do good. I know that publication specifically show cases people that give back and try to make a contribution to society of some shape. And no matter how big or small, im always striving to do that and teach that to my children and those around me, too. So id have to say people magazine. Uhhuh. People person. Date number three. We all know the only thing that could harm superman is kryptonite. What would you say is your own personal kryptonite. Thats tough. Sorry number three. I am in psychology, im a licensed marriage and family therapist, so im really good at reading people and making them feel good. So. Do you have any followup questions for our ladies . Oh, so many. So many. Holy smokes. Do i get to ask a followup question. You can ask whatever you want. This is your match making game. Oh, my gosh. I would i would ask, my son is here. Im a dad. Being a father is the most important thing in my life, so im just curious, i know one of them, i believe it was number two, loves kids. I was curious if the others love kids. Date number one, do you love kids . Yes, i actually am the proud mother of 10yearold boy girl twins. They are the absolute love of my life and i would do anything for them. They come first 100 . I just want them to grow up to be wonderful people. That is my main goal in life. If i succeed in doing that, i will have lived a happy life. I also am very proud of the fact that i cook home meals for them. I am 100 italian, so i cook big. I cook everything homemade. Homemade marinara. Anything your heart desires. You will be dreaming about my meatballs. Okay. If i said the same thing back, it would be awful. Date number two, same question. Love kids . Number three. No, number two. I love kids. I have two, and i love everybodys kids. Well done. Me, too. Im a nurturer by heart. I think they are our future, children in general. We have to do much, much, much more to be present in the lives of our children. So absolutely. Fair enough. And date number three, do you live kids . I absolutely love kids. I used to work with kids for a living. I dont have any of my own, but kids love me and i love children. All right, dean. Are you ready for your moment to pick date number one, number two, or number three . I think i am. Okay. Im going to choose this man right here. No, im going to choose do i get to get up now.

Absolutely. I have 100 here. What do we do with that . For 100, one thing our nifty followers love is diy rug tutorial. We made a tutorial with rope rug. We used high quality sisal rope for you guys, because its the today show, so we went fancy. You could do the same technique with cotton rope. You made that rug . Yes, i did. Where is it . Over there. Hiding behind the bed. You actually made it. Yeah. No way. It took about an hour to make. It looks like it would take forever but its easy to do. You coil it up. Its actually relaxing. Looks expensive. If i have a piece of string in my hand, i tend to do it anyway. Very meditative, we roll it. We glued it to a rug pad so it doesnt move. Layer it over rug floor. Layering carpet on carpet is a trend right now. Where doubts it from . Hardware store. Different colors . Absolutely. Cotton, nylon, reds, blues, greens, anything you want. We wanted something natural to match the bohemian theme. Ready to splurge, 150, what do we do. Thank you. Ill take your 150. We ended up making this incredible headboard. We did.
