>> matt, this is developing as we speak. seconds ago, 10:00 am -- sorry, 7:00 am on the west coast, 10:00 am here on the east, united airlines and the faa saying the ground stop affecting united airlines flights has now been lifted but united airlines telling nbc news this morning that it has been dealing with a major computer glitch. you're looking there at o'hare international airport and united flights sitting on the ramp and simply not moving. the same thing happening at major hubs across the country. houston, newark, denver international, san francisco, washington dulles, lax all affected. all destinations affected. look what's happened there this morning at chicago o'hare. if you're out there on the west coast and you have a flight today on united airlines, there's a significant chance it might be delayed. we are led to believe that united is now starting to get their systems back up and running again. we're not sure what exactly they -- what kind of problem they had with their automated computer systems but we're told they're starting to get back up and running but it's going to take some time. this has been down for the better part of two hours at this point. as you can expect, this is going to create this ripple effect we always talk about, usually as it relates to bad weather, ripple effecting across the country. today it's because of a computer glitch and causing a major slowdown with united airline. >> advice for people waiting to board the united flight? call their airport, their carrier, what? >> at the moment you're going to be with 20,000 of your best friends, everybody trying to call united. this is one of those days when you really have to be patient. it probably is not going to go and ask if you can book on another competing airline. unit sd starting to get their systems up and running again. if you're supposed to connect at a major hub and on to another city, you may be delayed or may have to try to rebook later in the day. we'll see how long it takes them to get back up and running completely. >> tom costello, as always, thank you very much. meantime, new developments on that deadly peer shooting in san francisco as officials reveal the owner of the gun used in the seemingly random murder. nbc's hallie jackson has the latest on that. what can you tell us? >> one of the questions has been where did this gun come from? now we have the answer. multiple sources say the gun belonged to a federal agent and had been stolen from a car before the shooting. this morning francisco sanchez remains behind bars on $5 million bail. >> translator: not guilty. >> reporter: after pleading not guilty to the murder of kate steinle. it was confirmed to nbc news that the gun that killed the 32-year-old as she walked on the water front with her dad belonged to a federal agent. they say the agent's large caliber handgun, which may have been a personal weapon, had been stolen from a car at some point before last week's shooting. sanchez told a local tv station he found the gun wrapped in a t-shirt on a bench. when he picked it up, it went off. >> this very well could be a completely accidental discharge of a firearm. >> reporter: prosecutors say it's murder. >> it's about bringing justice to that family. >> reporter: the case at the center of a political firestorm over illegal immigration and san francisco's status as a sanctuary city. an sanchez, a convicted felon, had been deported to mexico five times but never was turned over to immigration officials when he was released from jail this spring. california senator barbara boxer is asking the governor to look into whether state law was followed when sanchez was released, matt, and if so whether the law should be changed to prevent a tragedies like this from happening again. >> thank you so much. i want to turn now to hillary clinton. lashing out at rivals in a candid new interview. kristen welker has more on what mrs. clinton had to say. good morning to you. >> reporter: matt, good morning to you. as hillary clinton ramps up the campaign she's doing national television interviews. in her first she touched on topics from e-mail to oh questions about trustworthiness and made a play for the all-important hispanic voters by trying to link all republicans to donald trump. >> i'm asking that question everywhere i go. >> reporter: hillary clinton drawing lines over the issue of immigration in her first television interview. speaking from iowa on tuesday, clinton slammed donald trump, for calling mexicans rapists and criminals. >> i'm very disappointed in those comments. i feel very bad and very disappointed with him. >> reporter: clinton lumped the entire gop field in with trump. >> they are all in the same general area on immigration. they range across a spectrum of being either grudgingly welcome or hostile toward immigrants. >> reporter: republicans fear trump's comments will be a drag on the entire party and will cost them crucial latino voters. jeb bush,s who s whobush, whose wife is from mexico, fired back. clinton's rhetoric for republicans declined to take on her biggest democratic rival. >> i thought it would be a competitive race. >> reporter: when asked about bernie sanders who is narrowing her lead in some states she punted and played defense, responding to polls that show a majority of americans don't trust her. >> people should and do trust me. >> reporter: as for her use of a personal e-mail account while secretary of state? >> everything i did was permitted and i went above and beyond what anyone could have expected in making sure if the state department didn't capture something, i made a real effort to get it to them. >> reporter: clinton made headlines when she said san francisco made a mistake in not following the department of homeland security to deport francisco sanchez, the man accused of shooting a san francisco woman, as hallie jackson reported on. it's a point that stiffer border security is needed. this is an indication that immigration will be one of the biggest issues of 2016. matt? >> certainly will. kristen welker, thank you very much. chuck todd is moderator of "meet the press" and nbc's political director. good morning to you. >> good morning. >> her first major interview she addressed the e-mail controversy. what do you make of the answer? >> it was more defensive this time than during her initial e-mail press conference. talking about she followed -- went above and beyond the law. she showed no remorse, no regret. where, in the initial press conference, she said maybe i should have done it differently. none of that was in this one. very defiant. reminded me of the old days. she almost -- it's almost as if she's enjoying the house republicans attacking her. >> she was asked about polling numbers, specifically numbers on trust that plummeted as of late. she said this, that it was the result of, quote, unfounded attack and accusations, quote, largely fomented by the right. and she went on to say, this has been a theme it's been used against me and my husband for many, many years. what does that sound like to you? >> very defiant. doesn't accept the premise at all. this is a mountain of evidence that over the years there is one hurdle for the clintons, her and her husband, and that's the idea that they are not always straightforward. they play by a different set of rules. she doesn't want to accept the premise. this is the m.o., don't give an inch. >> doesn't it sound like this interview in 1998? take a listen. >> the great story here for anybody willing to find it, write about it and explain it is the vast right wing conspiring against my husband since the day he announced for president. >> is it a shrewd comment to galvanize democrats or might it backfire? >> it hasn't backfired yet. democrats haven't lost trust in her. among independent voters, potential swing voters and republicans. if you're her, why change? this is her experience. you put yourself in her shoes. she truly believes this, whether the evidence is there to back her up or not. >> let's move to donald trump. i want to show a graphic of the companies that severed ties with donald trump over his comments on mexican immigrants. mrs. clinton tried to trump -- or tried to tie all republicans and other candidates on the republican side to donald trump. did she do it successfully? >> you wanted to lump trump. i see what you're going for there. i thought she did. she was prepared in this answer. you could tell what her goal of the interview was. the minute she was is asked about trump it was, you know, all republicans share his view. she hit jeb bush personally by name, almost the one -- which tells me that's the one candidate she fears. and it is on that specific issue and his ability to potentially reach out to latinos. she wanted to tie him in with trump as well. >> trump called the u.s. a dumping ground for mexican criminals, drug dealers, rapists, and people transmitting infectious disease. jeb bush called his remarks extraordinarily ugly. how worried -- you talked to people inside these campaigns. >> i did. >> how worried are republicans about the effect of donald trump's comments on the hispanic vote? >> right now, they're all worried about trump's impact. about half the people i talked to assume trump will burn himself out. one said this is no different from 9-9-9 referring to herman cain and the blip he was, and it went away. there's another chunk of the party that's concerned that if he's on the debate stage one time, even doing one debate, that what hillary clinton did in this interview, using trump to lump the republican party on immigration, that's what the democrats will effectively do. all you have to do is say trump. they did it in '12 with todd aiken. what he meant impacted reproductive rights. if they put up trump's message it sends a message to latinos without saying anything else. natalie is here with more on the debate on the confederate flag in south carolina. >> that's right. good morning, everyone. the south carolina house will debate on a bill to remove the confederate flag from the capitol grounds. the state senate gave final approval by an overwhelming margin on tuesday. if the house goes along with the bill it could be removed by the end of the week. lawmakers are on track for a final vote on the issue thursday. greece is scrambling this morning to get another rescue plan and save the country from a banking collapse after disappointing other european leaders tuesday by failing to bring a new plan to the table. prime minister alexis tsipras says they will bring a fresh proposal in the coming days. european leaders readied a plan for the exit of greece from the euro. newly released police video shows a new mexico man giving new meaning to the term bareback riding. >> really?

had been drugged, i just looked him right in the eye and i can't say what i called him on television but i went into this tirade and i got louder and louder and calling him this name and he just decided that let me get this woman out of there. it was a survival instinct that kicked in for me. it was very lucky. >> fast forward to today. >> yes. >> you hear the news these are cosby's own words in this deposition. beverly, did you ever think that this day would come? >> frankly, i wasn't surprised at all. i knew that after 49 women have come forward and told their story, a story that was similar to mine that eventually it was going to come to light. so i wasn't surprised, i'm just very happy for the victims that they have some sense of peace and validation. >> did you, yourself feel vindicated after this? >> no. i don't really have feelings like that. for me it's about women using their voice. we are expected as women, to be voiceless. it was an opportunity for me to use my

chapter on cosby? we would like to put it in your memoir. >> probably a memoir worth reading. thank you. i appreciate it. >> let's take a turn and go to dylan for a check of the weather. >> it is monsoon season out west. we have seen a lot of showers and thunderstorms in las vegas. you can see the scattered showers and storms in utah and wyoming. the problem with the storms is they produce a lot of lightning and because of that through southern oregon we have some red flag warnings in effect. you'll get the thunderstorms without the rain and also the gusty winds that could spark fires, that could spread fires. to the south of that we are looking for dry conditions. you get the storms that produce heavier downpours and have brief flooding. that's the main concern because it is monsoon season out west. we have the chance of flooding rains because of an additional seven or eight inches of rainfall through oklahoma and texas. we saw eight inches in abilene, good morning, i'm meteorologist kari hall. we'll also have a chance of some dry lightning later on tonight, and maybe a little today and tomorrow. otherwise, we have low clouds giving us patchy drizzle and temperatures

♪ ♪ as lon this is an nbc news special report. here's lester holt. good day. word that the new york stock exchange has halted all trading due to what's been described as a technical issue. it's been down now a little over 40 minutes, about 11:30 eastern time. all trading was halted. it was at a period that the stock market was in a general sell-off mode. we want to go to bill griffith now. >> lester at this point there's still more questions than answers. but here's what we do know. they halted all trading on all stocks at the new york stock exchange because of what they termed as a technical glitch as you said. this appears to be specific to the florida of the new york stock exchange in terms of their capability to trade stocks. that's where the technical glitch lies. there are a number of electronic trading systems that can still trade stocks right now that are out there. that includes the nasdaq stock market. nasdaq came out a little while ago and said their trading system is fine. they are still trading their own stocks and some new york stock exchange listed stocks. there are other systems as well. right now what we know is this trading glitch that's halted trading at the new york stock exchange is specific to the big board right now. >> the dow was down about 215 when this occurred. was there something, a specific event that may have triggered this? >> it doesn't appear that that is related at this time. right now, the sell-off today was related to other things related to china, the sell-off there last night. the greek debt issues earnings and all kinds of other things. i don't believe the sell-off has caused this trading glitch. i will tell you, earlier this morning, the new york stock exchange put out a release saying they were having some problems trading certain stocks symbols. that was at 10:00 this morning. but then they announced afterwards that they had resolved that issue. maybe that's where it is coming from at this point. >> bill, thanks for keeping us posted on that. we've been watching computer issues at united airlines which halted all united flights and it snarled things around the world. it was about a two-hour outage. we want to bring in pete williams now. pete our understanding is there is no link between the united issues and the new york stock exchange. what are government officials saying right now? >> that's the read that there's no connection between these outages and a third one that's considerably of course less significant. but that's a computer problem at the "wall street journal." interesting in itself because it's had a problem in the past with chinese hacking. but three government agencies that i talked to say at this early point, they don't see a relationship they don't see a sign that this is the result of a cyber attack. the approach here of course lester is when these things happen the analysts immediately take a snapshot at the moment things started and in an essence look at the instant replay and look at what traffic was happening before the outage. these systems are subject to attacks all the time so they have to look for something that's an anomaly, something that's unusual. that's going to take some time. but the early read is with the understanding that this could change the early read is no sign of any relationship or cyber attack. >> we can report the "wall street journal" site is back up. it came up a few minutes before we went on the air. again, the word the united issue, they're trying to get their planes back in the sky after the ground stop was lifted. a separate issue apparently from what is happening at the new york stock exchange. we're where, again, all trading has been halted as they continue to work on a technical issue. for now, i'm lester holt. nbc news, new york.that?

[ laughter ] olivia i'm sure you're not a viper. but it was mainly directed towards our mom. as a reflection of somebody that's about to have two girls why is the mother/daughter relationship so complex? >> we're the same gender. there's nothing like a mother and a daughter so i think a lot of moms forget that their own conflict they might have had with their own mothers. and you want more for your daughter so when your daughter responds to you in a way you think is cruel or doesn't reflect your intention, it can be hurtful and so many moms refact that way. >> look who's just sitting here waiting her turn. olivia olivia, oely ya. when did you first feel you went toe to toe with your mom. ? because there's a point where you say yes yes, yes then suddenly something shifts. do you remember how old you were when that started? >> there's deaf it will any a big shift around 13 or 14. suddenly i felt she was my friend and i could tell her stuff and talk to her and i don't know why when i was younger i felt there was no need in a way, i don't know, like, obviously i talked to her and everything but now like i get advice from her and she's like my best friend and it's -- >> so there was no period of conflict? this sounds very rosy. >> let's hear it from your mother's point of view. thank you so much, olivia. >> i think she was about 12 there was a year where we spoke two different languages. we could not have a conversation without it escalating, doors slamming. it was crazy and i thought how am i going to get through this. >> so how did you? >> i spoke to other moms who had older daughters and it gave me hope. i realized that this is a phase. we came out the other end and she's awesome now. >> did she ever say "mom, i hate you"? because i have girl friends who tell me their daughters say it or it's painful. >> i don't think exactly that but there were definitely things thrown at me that were very painful. i'd have to go in my room and close the door and regroup. >> didn't actually throw things at you. >> words. >> good doctor, when something like that happens, what's the best way to handle that conflict. >> the key is -- and it's hard to do this for mom just to pause for a couple seconds and realize that your daughter is reacting and what you don't want to do is react with the same amount of hostility she has and if you can just collect -- it's hard but collect your thought, respond with warmth, positivity, stay focused on the issue. one thing teenage girls are expert at is they know how to push your buttons and they know how to get what they want and they will deviate to get what sthoept you have to focus on tissue. what you want to do is teach your girls with love. >> so we have a couple movie clips. >> i love movie clips. >> let's see your reaction. is first is "freaky friday" let's see if the mother daughter can relate. >> honey you need a serious and bracing reality check if you think my life is perfect. >> you could just cut me some slack just this once mom! >> i am beyond cutting you slack, anna but you are not going to the audition. >> yes, i am! >> whyno you're not! >> why not? >> because i said so! [ laughter ] >> "i said so" how often do you hear that? >> i still say. >> it and how do you respond it to, olivia? >> i try to ask for a reason but i don't usually get one. >> i try not to say no to her unless there's a really good reason to say no. i try to step back and think do i really need to say no to think? she's trying to become an independent person maybe i should let dhoer it. so we -- and i try to give her a reason, also. if i say no i'll say "because if you stay out until 2:00 a.m. i'm terrified, i don't know where you are and i'm lying in bed freaking out." >> and a lot of times when kids after they go to college there's a friendship that starts all over again, a different kind of relationship which is something to look forward to. thank you so much. thank you, oe live yanchts you're scaring me. i have two girls -- one girl and another girl on the way. i'm freaked?
