Ome to today on this thursday morning from miami and new york. Craig, good night one is done, but were really just getting started. Round two is tonight. Good to see you. A lot of folks more blearyeyed than usual after staying up late to watch the first batch of democratic contders. Yeah, no question about it. Youre truly included. Top ory, the first group of democratic hopefuls sharing the tage for the first time, introducing themselves and their ideas to voters. Well break things down with chuck todd, and first, were here with peter alexander. Good momoing. Good ing to you. A fight for time as much as anything else for these democrats. EElizabeth Warren and cory booker among these setting the tone. Julian castro having a good night, introducing himself to millions of americans. For the democrats, it was coming up with the best formula to beat donald trump and face the challeng facing all americans. The ten democrats looking to win the white house saving their sharpest jabs f the man they want to defeat. The biggest threat to the security of the United States is donald trump. I dont think s wehould conduct foreign poly in our bathrobe at 5 00 in themo ing. On january 20th. 2021, well say adios to donald trump. Substantive on progressive plans to overwahl the economy. When you have an economy that does great for those who have money and it great for everyone else, that corruption pure and simple. We need to call it out and attack it head on. Its time we have an economy that works for everybody, not just the wealthiest on the national. On health care, Elizabeth Warren and bill de blasio coming out in favor of eliminating private insurance in favor of a medicareforallre system. Ting to the searing photo of a father and his daughter lying dead as they try to enter the u. S. Watching tt image, its heartbreaking. It should also piss us all off. The sharpest exchange between two texans. Julian castro and beto orourke, over whether to decriminalize illegal border crossings. I helped to introduce legislation to make sure we don criminalize those seeking asylum and refuge. If youre fleeing desperation im stillal tng about everybody else. Orourke and senator cory booker at times speaking spanish to emphasize tof importance latino voters. [ speaking spanish ] the debate also marking the first in history withn more tha one woman on the president ial stage. I just want to say theres three women up here who have fought pretty hard for a womans right to choose. The candidates arguing for strict n gun ws. We cant treat this as an across the board problem. We have to treat it like a Public Health emergency. P andhing for an aggressive approach to combat climate donald trump is simply wrong. He said wind turbine cause cancer. We know they cause jobs. All the contenders asked what they vuz as the greatest geopolitical threat to the u. S. Our existential threat isim cle change. Climate change. Nuclear proliferation and chiement change. Russia, bause theyre trying to undermine our democracy, and they have done a good job of it. Heavy on policy wit some technical interinterruptions, a least one viewer was unimpressed. President Trump Aboard Air force one tweeted boring. Tonight, joe biden, his name was not mentioned once by t ten democrats last night, but this evening, there will be four of the top six democrats on stage. Biden will be flanked by kamala harris, bernie sanders, and pett buieg. Chuck todd is with me, nbcs political director, host of meet the press. It was lively. The gloves werent totally off, but they were ready to mix it up with eacheter. They were. And one of the wild cards i thought going into the debate was the dichotomy between those who thought they had a second or thirdebe to go to and those who thought this was their only opportunity. I saw, and i want to be careful how we single out, but i saw some of the 1 percenters who think i better do something now if i want to get on the stage again. I dont want to say it was desperation, but there was a little janis joplin in them, freedom is nothi less to lose. The pressure is on because it is potentially a me or break for some of these candidates. The other thing i was reminded of just watching the debate and participating in it is those that have been familiar in politics and have done this before, you could see particularly the mayor of new york city, who is somebody who bill de blas for better or worse, when youre the mayor of new york city, you dl with pressure. You can banter, and his comfort of just being a little interruptive, it rattled a couple of other candidates who have never really done tha before. If you were watching last night, the ten candidates, is nat a snapshot of where thecr demoic party is right now . I think if you looked at last night in isolation, i would say no. Ask megain after tonight, but last night, it leaned farther to the left i totality than maybe the party is. Well find out tonight, but if you look at cory booker who i would have saio tried t straddle the two wings,rte sounded far to the left than he has in some issues. Amy klobuchar, what was the one moderate ort of staking out that sort of mainstream centrist lane here, tonight,oe biden, even kamala harris, ill be curious to see, is she going t to to straddle the two lanes . Pete buttigieg has the same problem, but sam thing. This party, theres a wider idealogical spectrum than was on stage. And joe biden comes in leading substantially in every poll. Do you think the candidates are going to come out and be swinging because they think they have tatake a him down notch . You have to be careful if you swing too hard. Nobody likes, especially right now in a fifrb debate, you dont want to be overly negative, but yiven what we saw last night and the comfort the had in mixing it up, i think you are going to see i think youre going to see somek candidates loo at what particularly some on the wings did and try to emulate that strategy. Chuck, thank you so much. Get a nap. Ill see you down there in 1 hours, my friend. Were doing this again. We are. Tonight. Well have a lot mor from miami throughout the night. Les will have complete coverage on nightly news and you can watch round two, you seehem l, so many candidates, we cant read them all off. On nbc, msnbc, telemundo. A lot of those issues being debated are ao on President Trumps agenda as he arrives in japan for the g20 summit. It will mark the president s mrstting with Vladimir Putin since the release of the Mueller Report. Keir simmons is inosaka, japan. Good morning. Hey, craig. Good morning. The president arriving here in osaka in the past few hrs and going straight to a dinner with the australian Prime Minister. His schedule really gets started tomorrow morning. Y evening for guys there. Inevitably, the agenda revolves around the president hi President Trump arriving in osaka in a rain storm this arrning, as dk clouds loom around the world.

The presint later sits down with President Trump. Iran, north korea, venezuela, all likely to come up. Hish meeting wit president xi of china wul be crucial, but will it helphe ease t u. S. china trade dispute . Iran will be central to conversation with leaders from saudi arabia to turkey to the pdent promising no end rerope. To the tough sanctions on iran. Iran can do whatever they want. Its just ene. I hav plenty of time, but they have a country thats ecicst. Ister right now. This promises to be another tough few days for international diplomacy. And already, a flurry of diplomacy, the leader of south korea and leader of china meeting here in osaka and afterwards, the leader of south wrea saying they believe north korea does stillt to negotiate atd and is committedo reports, too, craig, that President Trump and president xi of china are set to announce some kind ofl a dea on trade that would delay those tariffs. But of course, this is the g20 and this is President Trump. Anything can happen. Sear sikeir simmons, thank y. Back to a major topic in last nights debate, immigration. This morning, were getting a firsthand look at the Border Patrolcctation aused of keeping children irn, quote, appalling conditions. Gabe gutierrez is there. Immigration advocates who came here last week described unsanitary conditions, but now the Border Patrol isushing back. During our highly controlled tour, we did notice some apparent improvements, but we also learned overcrowding at this facility was much worse than we first thought. Also, we want to warn you some of the images in the story are disturbing. This morning, immigrant advocates are asking a federal judge to issue an emergency order requiring immediate nspections at border detention facilities. It comes just days afterof repos filthy and oefr crowded conditions at this Border Patrol station in clint, texas. Cpb officials are letting us inside for the turs time, now cameras allowed,ust pen and paper. This facility is supposed t hold up to 106 migrants, but a month 1 2 ago, there were almost 700 children there. Agents showed us it was stocked with food. And children aeared to be clean. Meanwhile, the house approved 4. 5 billion, the Senate Passed a different version of the bill, now law makes cant agree on specifics. The president wan changes to asylum laws. If we had the right laws that the democrats are not letting us have, the peoe wouldnt be coming up, they wouldnt be trying. The president continues to blame demoats, but the real problem is the president. Fueling the raging immigration debate, this heartbreaking image of Oscar Ramirez and his 23monthold daughter veleria drowning as they tried to swim across the rio grande in south texas. I hope that picture alone will catalyze this congress, this senate, this committee to do something. This is home video of the family. Mother tanya watches in horror as the water swept her husband and daughter away. Oscars mother in el salvador is devastated. E this is actually where found captain Chris Menendez with the el paso Fire DepartmentsWater Rescue Team said they have seen seven drownings in the last month. Why do you think that is . In seems to be an influx of people try to come across. Now, during our tour, we were not allowed to speak to any of the children here at thede bor patrol station. We saw children in nine cells in a central processing area. They were allowed to come out one at a time to use a phone or the restrooms. I did notice one older girl crying as she returned to her cell. But other than that, i didnt see signs of the children in clear ssdistre what struck me is how in the world they were able to cram almost 700 people at oneoint into this Border Patrol station. I read your report when you came out of there and when you said 700 people in a place that was supposed to hold about 100, if i have that right, i was shocked myself. Thank you very much. Appreciate your reporting.

Forscythe county can take this to family court and try to strip the parents right even without the parentseing there.

Ten more candidates will line up tonight. Thats what were talking about, the countdown is on to the second roul of the president debates. The first group of candidates last night let voters know where they stand on issues that havel zed a lot of the country. Peter alexander joins us with the key moments. Good morning again. Hey, saornnah. Goodng to you again. Last night, the democrats didnt ention Donald Trumps name nearly as often as many people expected. Instead, they revealed sharp divisions on the direction of their party, specifically how far to the left they should go on issues such as health care, immigratio t andhe economy. And theyre off. The first ten democrats looking to win the white house, saving some of their sharpest jabs for the man they want to defeat. The biggest threat to the he security of Tnited States is donald trump. I dont think we should urnduct Foreign Policy in bathrobe at 5 00 in the morningn well nuary 20th, 2021, say adios to donald trump. The debate strikgly substantive, on progressive plans to overhaul the economy. When youave an economy that does great for those with money and isnt doing great for everyone else, that is rruption pure and simple. We need to call it out. We need to attack it headon. Its time we have an economy that works for everybody, not just thewealthiest in our nation. On health care, two candidates, Elizabeth Warren any new york cit mayor bill de blasio coming out in favor of eliminating private insurance in favor of a medicare forall system. Reaction to a father and his daughter lying dead as they try to enterhe u. S. Watching that video is heartbreaking. It should also piss us all off. The sharpest exchange between two texans, forme hsing secretary Julian Castro and former congressman beto orourke. Over whether to decriminkrideim illegal border crossings.

Hell be flanked by bernie sanders, pete buttigieg, and kamala harrhe. Four of top six democrats according to recent polls will share the stage. T. Nk you very much while the first group of democrats had their initial faceoff, Jacob Soboroff was meeting with voters, having a watch party. We were at the book store across the street. You street off this exchange on the topic of the day amongst the voters, immigration. You talked to julian casabo t decriminalation. Everybody was fired up about that. Particularly because of t t picture o father and daughter that we were talking about yesterday. Also, minimum wage and affordability. Elizabetharren talked lot about it. There was a young woman at the book store who really it really resonated with her. I want to show you a little bit of that. Take a look. Whos breaking through . Ms. Warren is the one guess g through to me because shes speaking directly clearest. I feel like shes talking to us. I think theres nothing a candidate wants to hear more than i feel like shes to us. Ng some of the other young people at the book store across the street, climate change, especially here in miami, were almost at sevel in miami. When people hear about climate change, they say that matters to me here because its literally our future. It got lively with theca idates on the issue of health care. Diz that resonate with them . Did they understand what that debate was snuabout . It got kind of complex. Tenuous, you could because bill de blasio jumped in several times and i think that did not help him with the people i was sitting with. They felt like it was a little overly aggressive and they wanted to hear everybody play it out. Its so tricky for these candidates, when to jump in, when not to jump in. You guys are the only ones allowed to jump. Well see. Jacob, thank you so much. Lester holt, of course, will have a lotore on the race for the white house tonight on nbc nightly news, and you can watch debate,nd half of the ten candidates on the stage, tonight, 9 00 eastern, on nbc, msnbc, and telemundo.

Ye erday, we took that closer look at the stonewall riots. This morning, were focusing on how the experience of coming out has changed over the last half century. Joe fryer is here with that. Its changed dramatically. It really has. As we were interviewing folks for thee story, w asked how old were you when you came out . On the surface, it may sound like an easyquestion. But its not that simple. You may come out to your parents and friends, and then later more friends. Youre always ct,ing ou but in many ways and manyplaces, things are easier now. From the stonewall riots in 1969, to the pop hits of 2019. Ha sde never made anybody let gay the btlgq community has never bele less v and thats empowering more and more people at younger ages. I came out when i was 18 years old. I o came when i was 16 years old. I came out when i was 14 years old. This morning, we discuss how things changed by sharing stories from three different generations. Coming out was a gradual proces for me. Today, he runs equality california, one of the trcounys largest organizations for lgbtq rights, something he could have never imagined growing up in the rural southwest. The view was lgbtq people were abnormal, they didnt have families. Lgbtq people were lonely and pathetic. Heaid fear from the aids crisis kept him closeted through much of the 0s. It wasnt until the 90s that rick came out to frien, colleagues and his mom. At first, she thought it was a phase and my boyfriend converted me. There were challenges, but ultimately, there result was positive because youre not hiding parts of yourself. Youre living in a way thats authentic. Still, at that time, positive gay role models were in short supply, makorg it hard f many to come out, including me. When i was young and i tried to picture what my life would be as an adult, i sort of assumed i would marry a woman and have kids. And i think pt of that made me feel sad, because i felt like i wouldnt be living my real true lin. But whe went to college, there were shows like will and grace. Ladies first, sorry grace. And trailblazers like ellen degeneres. Im gay. Youre starting to see things on television and in movies that make you say, okay, im not alone and there are other people out ere. I dont even remember the first time i actually said the words im gay soe the first tim i can think of saying those words was with my mom, and thankfully, that was an incredibly positive experience. New Research Finds many parents still struggle with the news two years after their kids come out. Michael says that was the case initially for his mom. I think it was difficult to have her only child come out and the fear of, like, what does thatow mean for his success and his future . How hard was it coming out at 14 . Credibly difficult. For anna, the problems came from peers. I got slurs thrown around. I remember someone told me i was the reason why the hiv and aids it was very, very, very, very lonely for a very, very long time. Se had immedia support, including zach, who is transgender. My mom said i love you no matter what. For a week, my mom was like, let me do my own researat. After th she was like, this is what we need to get don itps hel that todays culture embraces lgbtq people more tn ever, including the legalization of gay marriage that inspired taylor, a today show intern. It made me feel good inside because i didn feel as scared to come out to people because knew, im able to get married if i love somebody. For this group, the future is just as bright as that symbolic rainbow. My dream . I hope to be married. My life today is absolutely incredible. Partnerbeen with my peter for more than 11 years now. Even if i can beope sxn out, and even one person can see it and feel better about who they are, it will have made every hardship i ever suffered so worth it. Models are lgbtq role now, people elected to office. Folks can see themselves now, and i think that is what is making the world better. That was fantastic. Fantastic. Thank you so much for sharing that story. Heres the thing, though, and after the stonewall riot story yesterday, we talked a little bit about this. There have been a lot of s, advansdmente but theres still a great deal of work to be done. One thi we have to remember, lesbian, gay, bisexual youth, stats show theyre five times more liky to attempt suicide than their peers. E what wear over and over again is the per of visibility. Everyone we talked to refer to someone on tv, someone in the movies, a Youtube Influencer or someone in their community. That visibility gives them the strength to come out themselves. Even you sharing your own story, you can only imagine maybe someone is watching you. I grew a up in small town. Populationed around 1,000. Coming out in the late 90s, it wasnt an option. I went to tllege, andhats when where started to see people my age who were out and proud. It made a difference. It made it easier then for me to tell my family. Youre making adifference. Thank you, joe. Thank you, joe fryer. Mr. Roker, by the way, i want to let folks know you wrote an essay that folks should check out on today. Com, a very personal essay.

Nice and fresh. Spiderman, that is probably going to be the bigge blockbuster or one of the biggest. Of the movies lhat aret this summer, this is the onere people a excited about. This is the big fourth of july movie. Tom holland, i love him as spiderman. They did something so clever by inserting him into the avgers rld. Because of that, this movie, far from home plays like a continuation of the avengers l endgame plote that was so big. And what i like about this, you have Jake Gyllenhaal as a new villain character. You have the kind of the end of world stuff action scenes but its also a Sweet High School romance between peter a parkernd his crush, mj, played by zendaya. You go back and forth between action scenes and more personal enes. Good and expectations are higus be the budget is i believe 160 million. I believe its going to make it back. Yeah. The next one is from our parent company, universal. Yesterday. You dont want to wait until next week to see a great movie, theres one coming out tomorrow. Its called yesterday. Written by thit great screen writer, richard curtis, who did love actually and four weddings and a funeral, about this struggling nger song writer where finds himself in an alt alrnate universe where he is the only one who has heard of the beatles so he decides to run with this and claim all these beatles songs are ones he wrote. And you know who is else in the movie in a great kind of extended cameo road . Ed sheeran. Really . Playing himself. You think hes going to be in it for a couple minutes, but hes in it for a lg time. A great supporter role and hes a really natural actor. A very sweetfilm. Whats cool about it is it forces you to listen to the befles songs as i youre hearing them for the first time. Lets talk about one of the biggest disney stories of all time, lion king released 25 yearsago this year. Does that make you feel old . It does. Whatbout the remake . Im intrigued about this one. People asked me, is it animated, is it live action . Its called photo realistic. Its basically scgi that made to look completely real. And the jungle book movie a couple years ago which had the same director, jon favreau, had the same technology. Whats exciting about this besides how amazing it looks is the cast because they had Donald Glover and beyonce along with billy iegner and seth rogen. Theres a new elton john song called never too late that he wrote with the original lyricist from the lion king. The sound track for sure will be the sound track of the summer. Beyonce, Donald Glover, and elton john. Cant go wrong. Quentin tarantino,inth n exp are high. Alist cast. There notmany directors where every film hees or she m is an event. This is call an interesting throwbackollywood story. Leonardo decap reo, so great. Plays an aging tv star, and in the movie, Margot Robbie plays sharon tate, soohe film a touches on, lets say. That interesting story. The ending of this movie has to be seen to be believed. Wow. Thats a tease. Definitely one you want to seeefore your friends Start Talking about it too much. Its really entertaining. Heres another one from our parent company, universal. Fast and furious, this is a spin off. The fast and furiousch frane is gargantuan. Its been very successful. Now they decided to spin off haubs and shaw. You can see idris elba here as the villain of the itlm. Muscles on screen. Its shocking you can even fit these guys on the screen. Nk and i t whats going to be great about this is this is going to be the movie for the hard core action fans. The trailer looks really fun, like Dwayne Johnson and Jason Statham are trying to outdo each other with the action stunts. Its little less car driven, but a lot of action.
