What was another day fraught with tension in the nations capitol. The mayor of washington d. C. Today called on trump to remove all federal troops who have been patrolling the capitol and graszively responding to what have been peaceful protests. Today mayor sent a group of volunteers to paint black live matters outside the president s doorstep on the street that leads up to the white house. Her office said it was remind the president who the d. C. Streets belong to. The mayor officially renamed that street black lives matter plaza. Tonight the mayor added more shade. She tweeted out this video of the street lights illuminating the mural on the newly named street. Her city turned on the night light for donald trump. So he dreams about black lives matter plaza. A huge thunder bolt of news. What will be felt loud and clear inside the white house tonight. As of this evening former Vice President joe biden has officially clenched the Democratic Party nomination for president. After more vo
Back two months ago where he said, when we were talk about getting his report done he threw out the date september 1 as being a reasonable date to get it done. All right. The anniversary of charlottesville, President Trump is spending the day in bedminster, new jersey, but on twitter he is calling for americans to come together as one of his former advisers in an exclusive interview with chuck todd says she heard donald trump on tape using the n word while he was working on the apprentice. You have heard the tape . I had heard the tape. Since publication of this book. Absolutely. So you know it exists. I know it exists and what i regret these people are trying to leverage it as a october surprise. I dont want to be part of that. But i heard for two years that it existed and once i heard it for myself it was confirmed what i fear the most. That donald trump is a con and has been mass quer raiding masquerading as someone who is open to working with the Diverse Communities but hes truly a
Welcome back, everybody. Im david gura at msnbc headquarters in new york. State of emergency. One year after the deadly riots in charlottesville, virginia, authorities are on high alert to make sure history does not repeat itself. House of deception. Amarosa accuses of white house of deceiving the American People and says she is partially to blame. I was complicit with this white house deceiving this nation. And meeting mueller, Rudy Guiliani once again weighing in on whether President Trump will sit down with the special counsels team of investigators. But we begin with protests in the streets of our Nations Capital and charlottesville, virginia, today. Right now, several counter protest rallies are taking place as washington braces for hundreds of right wing organizers expected to descend and rally in front of the white house. Those White Supremacists making their way from Northern Virginia to washington. The tension also triggering a state of emergency in charlottesville, a town at
Obscene gesture. They cover their faces as you can see. They get dressed in black and they have their helmets, they have known to be violent. Not just against the white supremacist but also against the news media. And others in the past. Have there been any incidents where you are, peter or that sort of thing . Can you hear me . Reporter i can hear you, eric. So far we have not seen anything like that. But there are just so many people and i do see among some of the counter protesters, there is a strong smell of marijuana in the air. I can see someone lighting up a joint right here across from the white house. With hundreds if not thousands of cops all around. The signs are mostly antiWhite Supremacy and antinazi. But then there are some it seems like anyone with a cause in d. C. Is here. And the numbers are enormous compared to the unite the right white civil rights march. They were brought here by police protection. No one could really talk to them. And then they have no state basica
There was about maybe two dozen, maybe 20 attendees at this unite the right rally version two. This had been the endeavor in charlottesville last year. This time around, what we saw was a group that was largely leaderless, largely disorganized. Lot of these folks coming in on the metro didnt even have metro cards in advance. They didnt have a coherent message. They were met when they got here by a huge counterprotest of folks who had all of those things. They had a message, a united voice and have bigtime numbers. If you look around here, this is the scene that will meet those folks from the unite the right group, if and when they start to leave, this will not be a welcoming crowd. You see black lives matter flags, also a large antifa contingent here. Theyve been essentially patrolling this street over the last two hours waiting for these rallyi goe rallygoers to come back out at the end of the rally. The words have not been kind, david, and the hope among police, organizers here, is a
