Thank you. The president ial race is dominated by the stop Trump Movement this morning. The republican front runner now the target of conservative leaders. Theyre trying to block his potential nomination. Hes also being targeted by the hacker group known as anonymous. Hallie jackson is on the trail for us with more on all of it. Good morning. Good morning. This morning, as the stop Trump Movement tries to regroup and figure out a new way to slow down the front runner before the arizona primary, new fallout from the hacker group as it takes aim against trump. Not just his politics, but his personal life. Reporter now claiming credit for hacking donald trump, the wouldbe dictator. Were serious about stopping any foreright by the fascist donald trump. Reporter they claim to have posted his cell phone and Social Security numbers but those have been flowning around online for months. Law enforcement is investigating those who tried to illegally hack the candidates account. Anonymous probably trying to get attention for their socalled war on trump. In washington, a different battle to try and stop him. Less public, too. After a secret huddle of frustrated conservatives, reassessing how to slow trump down. These attack ads havent seemed to do more. Their plan, first call for a unity ticket. If that doesnt work, plot out strategy for a contested convention. Paul ryan acknowledging that scenario looks likely. Were getting our minds around the idea that could become a reality. Reporter now, taking aim at trump for warning what could happen at a convention if he get the nomination. Riots. Im representing millions of people. Nobody should say such things, in my opinion, because to even address or hint to violence is unacceptable. Reporter while the stop Trump Movement wants unity, theyre not saying who conservatives should unify behind. Ted cruz and marco rubio teaming up, shot down. Im not going to be anybodys vice president. Rubio praising cruz as conservative. Reporter this poster of liar, liar puts ted cruzs head on jim carreys body. If you kill ted cruz on the floor of the senate and the trial was in the senate, nobody new this morning, a scare at the manhattan apartment of Donald Trumps son eric. He had a letter sent with white powder inside. Sources say it was nobody harmful. Its yet another sign of how much attention trumps candidacy and his family are getting. Hallie jackson, thank you. Nicolle wallace is an nbc news policeal analyst and former adviser to the mccainpallen n ccainpalin campaign. Good morning. We talk about this trump thing as it has a ceo and a logo. Its fractured. While trying to get itself together, hasnt it almost missed a moment . After New Hampshire, the only way to derail trump was to put him in a one on one race. To have everybody coalesce behind one candidate. Whether it was ted cruz or john they were all still in the race at that point. That never happened. The central weakness of the stop Trump Movement is it never had a horse. It never had a strategy. It never built consensus around anal kerntive alternative. We just saw lindsey graham. I asked him whats the temperature in hell because he says hell will freeze over before i support ted cruz. Thats where they are as a party, hard choices. What does it say about ted cruz, that he may be the person in the best position to stop trump, but he cant get the party behind him totally . It would have been better if hed not lost all five contests tuesday night. If he had won, if he had a stronger showing this week, you might have seen more people get behind him. The truth about the antiTrump Movement exists behind these things. The temperament of trump. Two, the substance. Hes not a conservative in the minds of the conservative three, theyre worried about him filling the vital commander in chief role. Hillary clinton would be wise to go after the first group, people worried about his temperament and maybe the third, people who think he cant be a confident commander in chief. Right now, the stop Trump Movements only hope is he doesnt reach 1,237. Do you think republicans fear donald trump or dislike him more than they dislike hillary clinton. Nobody in the elite establishment would ever admit to being open to hillary clinton. As weve seen time and time again, theyre not the story. Theyre not the deciders, if i can borrow a word from my favorite former president. The voters are the deciders. A lot want to vote republican. Who want to see change. But who are uncomfortable with the idea of trump and cruz at this point. Thank you very much. Good to see you. Something else on the president s plate, a historic trip to cuba. Nbc nightly news anchor lester holt will be live in havana on sunday. He will have complete coverage. Over the president s pick for the Supreme Court. It is entering a new phase today. Pete williams is at the court for us this morning. Good morning to you. Good morning. Senators have left town for the easter break, giving Merrick Garland a break. But republicans insist his nomination isnt going anywhere. Reporter its a Supreme Court nominees ordeal, meeting senators one on one, hoping to win them over for a confirmation vote. So far, the welcome matt is out only at the offices of democrats, like harry reed, the minority leader. Republicans insist there wont be any hearing or vote because the next president should choose the nominee to succeed antonin scal scalia. The democrats say normally, the nominee would be up for a vote by memorial day. Hey, guys, do your job. Give him a hearing. Ask him questions. Say theyre willing to meet with garland, though nothing has been set up yet, and arizonas flake suggested voting on garland while president obama is in office if a democrat is elected president. I would rather have a less liberal nominee, like Merrick Garland, than a nominee that hillary clinton, if she were president , would put forward. Reporter but the Republican Leadership put out the word that an idea is not an option, and most in the party are following along. I dont think we should be moving forward on a nominee in the last year of the president s term. If it was a republican president , id say that. Reporter the white house released this photo of president Obama Meeting with garland. He told supporters to make themselves heard in demanding confirmation hearings. The Supreme Courts remaining eight justices are back in the courtroom next week. White house supporters are launching a website to push for garlands confirmation. We need nine. Org. Were hearing more from the alleged american isis fighter who was captured in iraq and still held there, and what hes saying about how he ended up with the terror group may surprise you. Nbcs chief Foreign Correspondent richard angle has the story. He says he joined isis but then had a change of heart. A u. S. Official told us this morning that because of the americans alleged time with the Organization Organization he does have intelligence. Reporter hes the first alleged american isis fighter to surrender to kurdish troops in iraq. Im from the united states. I studied criminal justice in college in virginia. Reporter in a taped confessional aired on kurdistan 24 tv, he described how he traveled through turkey, linked to mosul, an isis stronghold. The life in mosul, its really, really bad. The people were controlling mosul and dont represent the religion. Reporter these statements were made as he was held in captivity. I didnt really support their ideology ideology. Thats at that point, thats when i decided i needed to escape. Reporter to escape from isis, he said he crossed battle lines in search of kurdish forces, knowing they are close allies to the united states. At the time, i made a decision to go because i wasnt thinking straight. On the way there, i regretted. I didnt see myself living in america. Reporter a u. S. Official told nbc news isis is facing a growing problem of desertion, as the group comes under mounting military pressure and now a rare united states. But the charge is mainly a moral condemnation. Because the u. S. Is already fighting isis, its unclear if the rhetoric will change u. S. Policy. A u. S. Official told nbc news that american personnel have not yet met with him in custody, but that the kurds are debriefing him and passing that information along to the americans. Back to you. Thanks. It got tense on capitol hill over the flint water crisis. Resignations were called for michigans governor and the chief of the epa. People who put dollars over people do not belong in government. You need to resign, too, governor snyder. This was a failure of government at all levels. Local, state and federal officials. We all failed the families of flint. Governor rick snyder testified that michigans department of Environmental Quality assured him that the water from the flint water was safe when, in fact, it was contaminated with Dangerous Levels of lead.

A judge will decide whether the prep schooler who is accused of Sexual Assault against a 15yearold classmate should be put behind bars for violating it started when a reporter jumped into him on a subway around 1 00 p. M. And tweeted their conversation. Had to take a bus to dartmouth and be home by 5 00 p. M. Reporter a source said labrie thought the conversation was off the record. Prosecutors saw the exchange and filed a motion in court, saying he violated the conditions of his bail. Hes supposed to be at his mothers vermont home between 5 00 p. M. And 8 00 a. M. He traveled from New Hampshire to boston at least eight times since october. The question facing the court today isnt where he went but when he made it home. Most judges would look at that and say, tough. You knew what the rules are. Youve been convicted of a crime. Follow the ruling for your bail. Reporter labries lawyers say, yes, he traveled to boston and admits to violating his morning curfew on the occasions but only to see his lawyers and take classes he wanted to be insulted and threatened in public. I was waiting to see how the night went. Reporter the intense interest in labrie began last year.

In the decade thats followed, twitter has become the place for the world to share breaking news, historic moments and selfies, all in 140 characters or less. Were happy to have jack dorsey, twitters cofounder and ceo as he celebrates a milestone. Congratulations. March 2006, you sent the first tweet ever. Now, there is some 320 million active users on twitter. I think you have 3. 4 million followers personally. Other than sheer numbers, whats the biggest change from then to now on twitter . I think how people use the service. It is the easiest way to see whats happening in the world right now. Live. It breaks news for so many people. A lot of people just use it to see whats breaking and whats new in the world. Its grown up. Has it grown u to be a great kid or, at times, can it be a bratty kid . It is a great kid. But it reflects whats happening right now and what people want to talk about it with it. I should mention, youre not only the ceo of twitter but also the ceo of square, that helps me use my credit card on devices everywhere. Small businesses. How do you manage both of these big tech ceo jobs, which i understand can lead up to a 15 we have great teams in both companies. I do what im good at, which is making sure were building the right product that serves people in the right way. You have been compared to steve jobs. Just shake your head. Do you like the comparison . He was a true original. Im a student of his work, lifelong student. There is no comparison. You know, we look at the anniversary of twitter and we say, congratulations on that, but it has not come without difficulty. The company went public back in 2013. The stock has had a real difficult time. Youve lost key employees. Its hard to attract new people to the platform. Youve seen the headlines, jack, that say the end of twitter is near. How true is it . On the 15th anniversary, will you be hire ere talking about twitter . Absolutely, on the 15th, 20th and 30th. Its a fundamental service. We have a lot of heart in the company, a lot of purpose. We understand what we are and we just see this amazing usage globally. I asked you, has it become, at times, a bratty kid. There are a certain percentage of people on twitter who seem, to me, to use the platform simply to express anger and to hurt people and insult people. Does it disappoint you . Its disappointing but, i mean, its reflective of the world. We see as much optimism and positivity as negativity. We are empowering conversations so people can work out the issues. I sent out a tweet telling my measly number of followers you were going to be on and asked what questions theyd like you to be asked. There were questions about censorship, so let me ask you pointblank, does twitter sensor the content of its users . Does it hide what it would consider inflammatory comments, whether they be social or political . Twitter has been about controls. People can follow whoever they want. Its our job to make sure they see the most important things and the things that will matter to them. Anybody can say anything on twitter . The company does not go in there and take certain things out that can be dangerous . Theres certainly tweets that promote violence, which is against our terms of service. People have controls to block and people have controls to mute. What about the company . Not the company. Who decides the difference between criticism and hate . These are the individuals. You can follow who you want, and if its something you want to see, you continue to follow it. Do you get nasty tweets personally . I get complaints. I get nastiness every now and then. As the ceo, can you block people . Is that allowed . I can but ive never blocked anyone. I want to see what people are saying and i want to hear from them. It would be a strong statement if they find out that jack dorsey has blocked them. Development that came about not long ago, and you were mentioned in an isis propaganda video. Your image was there. It was a threatening message. How did the ceo of twitter end up being mentioned by a group like isis . Well, you know, theres definitely a microscope on the service. People use it to express themselves. People use it to talk about what they want to see happen in the world and what theyre against. Did you find it alarming . I found it alarming. Took it seriously . Took it very seriously, absolutely. Were going to continue this over in the orange room. Let me ask one last question here. If youre going to tweet after this interview to your 3. 4 million followers, telling them how it went, whats the hashtag going to be . Well. Well . Absolutely. Ill take it. Stick around.

Depends on who you believe. Theres the european model, new york city, 8 to 10 inches of snow. The american model, almost nothing. Which is right . Historically, the european model. It predicted superstorm sandy, thanks to a super come puter computer. Outside of london at a weather center, they take a ton of data, put it through a computer, producing super european models. Not those models. These models. It would allow us to run more sophisticated, advanced models. Reporter but the americans are catching up. Adopting the same super computer. Lagging significantly.

The european model, all they do is create a model. They dont do forecasting. They dont do anything. Its like a car company, all they have to do is build a tesla. The american model, it has to provide information for all different kinds of forecasts. Like gm makes one platform for 1e68 several cars. There is more agreement as we go forward. If you had to choose one model on a desert island, would bit the american model or the european model .

By sunday morning, were seeing a rain snow mix for washington, d. C. The model diverges a bit. Both storms will be intensifying, both models. The european model has it closer to the coast and, therefore, heres what we look for, as far as the snowfall totals. 2 to 4 inches for new york city. Boston, much more. Then the current forecast for the american model, almost no snow in new york city and boston. Who will be right . Well continue to track it. Always a challenge. Well track it here, as well.

Over the course of the summer, itll grow and get big and fill all the space. Know where the sunlight is. Exactly. Here. Is there a right way and a wrong way to plant bulbs . Absolutely. Probably planted 1,000 bulbs at our house and theyre just starting to come up. This is a dalia, i believe. Get the growth going. When you get a package, it shows you how deep they go. Usually three to four inches. Put it down there, cover it up. Just like you would a regular plant, water it. Dont pack it down or anything . You dont have to. Okay. The rains will come and pack it itself. Do you like planting seeds . Theyre great. Put it into an old eggshell container. Start it out there . Yeah. Tricks to keep things easy around the house. We travel a lot and dont have people at the house to water our plants. You can take a wine bottle, make sure you clean it out, rinse it out, and then you want to take your cork, throw a hole in it, and dump it upside down. Itll slowly water your plant. Itll leak enough water to do the job . Slowly trickles out. If youre gone for a week, few days, or you forget to water, this is a good trick. Great. Also, label what your plants are and stick them in so you know what your vegetables and herbs are. Something tells me you go you know im not judging. How do you know us that well already . Not judging. Why eggshells . Theyre a natural fertilizer. Keep them after you make your breakfast in the morning. Crush them up and put them around. Its one of those allnatural things that keeps the oil soil nice and rich. I taught her that technique. People want to keep pests and weeds away from the garden. You like to go all natural on this. Exactly. Chemicals can get a little dangerous. If you keep all natural, garlic, cyan pepper, vinegar, mix it together. Wear gloves. Cyan pepper, touching your face is dangerous. For the weeds, do the white vinegar and dish soap. Spray it just on the weed. If you get it on the grass or the plant, it can kill that. Be careful. I mentioned at the beginning of the segment, if youre not going to see snow this weekend, igt it might be good. You have to get past the frost problems before you waste your time doing this. If youre in the northeast, dont plant this weekend. Snow is good for the garden. Its a natural fertilizer, so it will help out your garden. Weekend. Dont rush the process.

[ applause ] whats fantastic is you can play this two separate ways. If you want to dress it down and put on a denim skirt, floral heel, or a little more dressed up for a date night. I love that you can have a flared belle or something more trumpet trumpeted. Should we do something a little more fitted . Streamline, right. With the silhouette of the dress, its not an aline at the bottom, its still streamlined and straight. Let the sleeve do the talking. The flared jeans are in, as well. Would you do the flare and the flare . You could. Its a strong look but you can pull it off. Well see about that. Ladies, thank you very much. They look great. Lets bring out our next trend. Completely. We can take a typical spring floral dress but you have this cutout in the back. At the same time, this open shoulder is called the Cold Shoulder detail, which is cheeky, but it plays up work wear thats conservative but has a little nod to it. Everyones shoulders are gorgeous. Everyone is comfortable with a little bit of that. That with a pencil skirt or aline, its a great way to show a little skin without being too revealing. Yeah. Did you tell us about the floral dress . The same for spring idea we see in floral trends, but you have a cutout detail in the back. You can see its a little open. Two little ties. Taking a basic, classic silhouette and modernizing it. I like the look. They look great. Thank you. Our next trend might intimidate some. Its mixing prints. Yes. They look great. Prints, especially if youre feeling a little nervous about it at first, stick with the same color. We see the stripes have a little navy and white. The skirt has the same blues in it, as well. Thats an easy way to mix trends. The same idea with this twopiece. A floral print. Leopard is another print, as well, but feels like a nice neutral. Its a great way to mix it up. Have fun with it. Do you have any tips . Staying in the same color story is one way to make sure they go. Do you have any other tips . Absolutely. Even though the big, fulllength aline skirt has more texture, that in itself feels like a print because it has dimension. I think, also, if you do a bold, big print, you can do a classic one, with the stripes and the paisley floral. It makes me want to put things i wouldnt necessarily put together, together. Absolutely. Ladies, thank you so much. Finally, steal my heart, the oh, good. I was into the grunge rock and the whole thing. We have the pakistan. Are back. So the slip dresses are huge this season. The choker is back. I havent gotten myself there yet, but im sure i will. I love the chokers. Savannah is ready. Amazing. A cross leather jacket, pop of neon, like the leather bag. This is quintessential 90s. Overalls can be dressed up. You can do a grownup version of it. There is a great silk blouse with it. Backpacks are back. Pair the overall with a strong heel. Its really modernizing a trend you loved so much. I did. I had a baggy pair of overalls in the 90s i never took off. Bring them back can we have all the models come back one more time so we can take a look . Thank you so much. Look forward to suits on usa for a new season when it returns this summer.

Thats comedy. Fun. Theyre allowing us to be funny, which is slightly differentiating our hour of mystery wheel, what they call them, from others. There is a lot of humor. I get to play like that, which is my favorite thing to do. I would think there would be room for a couple of cameos for a couple of i think there is, actually. Did you see our work in kung fu panda 3. Perhaps youve heard. We were cousins, i think. Thats right. Yeah, you get dim, im sorry. Youll see our work. Youre doing an indie film . I am. We shoot this summer. Its about this really incredible little girl. I play her mother. I dont want to spoil it too much, but she i pass away. Oh, okay. In the first couple minutes. No, and the little girl doesnt tell anybody. So she tries to live her life without anybody knowing that her mom is passed away. Youre still in the house . I dont want to ruin it. Its actually so beautiful and such a the little girl, her name is sterling, she is so sweet. The relationship that she has with her mother through poetry and through her mothers photography, its a really beautiful its a nice contrast, to go from what im doing now to go into this dramatic when does that come out . I think a year. Indie. Great gig. Most of the movies youre sitting no, its not about her death. No. Its a celebration. Yes. Its all about their life together prior to her being dead. This is not coming out right. Fantastic. Itll be great. Itll be sweet. Hallmark channel, tons of nudity. Ive been up in northern ontario. It is so cold.

So unbelievably cold up there. Were going to try to shoot in the summer. Of course. Tape heating things all over me. Its hard to concentrate. You survived that, we have amazing survival stories here. Incredible. First, oakland park, florida, a man and woman escaped injury. A driver crashes her suv through the front of a pizza parlor wow. Heres what the couple remembered from that very moment. All i remember is being pinned up against the counter and between the counter and the car. Then the people trying to drag me out. The only thing i see is me going to the floor, the car coming past me and him being slammed against the wall. Amazingly, he suffered only bruises and cuts, as you could see. She had 11 staples in her arm. Officials say the driver lost control of the vehicle. You think so . He said that she was really hungry for pizza. More elderly woman. We dont know what happened there. Usually what these are. At what point at what point does a license get taken away . Or retested, to make sure youre competent. The young man, evidently, said all he could think of was saving his fiance. He shoved her out of the way and he was the one pinned. Amazing. Dog owner reunited. We had this story. Fisherman reunited with his dog yesterday. Nick hayworth thought he lost luna after she fell overboard five weeks ago. Nothing. Youd think, shes gone. Luna swam ashore and was found by the u. S. Navy. Obviously, nick, very, very happy to get luna back. I was overwhelmed with joy. I honestly was the happen nest iest ive ever been. To have my best friend back was really nice. The dog swam to another island and lived off of fish and water. Wow. Amazing. For five weeks . Five weeks. Unbelievable. There is another type of survival which im still trying to do, which is the survival of parenthood. Jennifer garner gave seth meyers, dad to be, some advice. Everyone gives you so much advice, right . A lot of unsolicited advice. As much as you think, im going to follow what this person says, im going to read this book and ill have this birth plan, its not up to you, dude. Did you read the books . I did it all but it doesnt let it go. Youre going to struggle. Its going to suck, just like for everyone else. Okay, great. Right . Based on what youve told me, i can go back to my wife, who me she cant help it. God bless her. You dont say that to her. Okay, cool. Dont say that to her. I stopped saying anything to her. Yeah, im so glad you mentioned that. I would never do that to you, no. Treat this with caution. Be very, very careful. Just know in your head, this is all going to go to hell in a hand basket. Shes right. It is. Good advice. Doesnt matter how many books you read. Did you read . All the what to expects and all the whatever. Theyre there.

Its cheaper if you buy the whole fish. And you cook it with the skin on . Skin on. Slit in the bottom. Then youre going to slice across, right at the top, on both sides.

Hot pocket, and thats a fish pocket. Make a little marinade. Cyan pepper, garlic, little cilantro, put that together. Youve got some olive oil in there. Mix that up. Make these at home, al . I do. Then you put that in and let that kind of marinade on top of it for a little bit. Then you get a little salt. Do you like a lot of salt . I like this kind of salt. And let it roast. Take the fish out and bring it over here. Dont hold the pan with your bare hand. Always bad. Good advice. Thats another best thing about buying your fish. Its going to come apart anyway. I feel like im in the heartbeat show. You can see how fresh your fish is. When its fileted, not so much. When this is cooling, youll make the coleslaw marinade. Lemon juice, sour cream, honey and chipotle for smokiness. The smoky and the sweet is good. Exactly. Little salt, little petter. In here, you have some sliced up scallion. Youve got some cron peppers and purple cabbage. Slice it up, put it together and mix this up. Youre going to put this in as your dressing and mix it youve got your coleslaw. Now, what youre going to do is flake your fish. Put it in a bowl. You take a little bit of lettuce and build here we go. Build your taco. You can put anything you want on it.
