Cityrun Healthcare Facility will be required to be vaccinated or take a weekly test. This comess the cdc sounds the alarm and says the Delta Variant accounts for all the cases across the country. Overseas, a new setback for team usa, another american Athlete Testing positive, bringing the toll to at least five who will be side lined. We are live in tokyo, where an Olympics Official says he is not ruling out cancelling the games if the covid situation gets worse him we are live on Capitol Hill, where in just a few hours, finally the senate will take the first vote on whether to move forward with the 1 Trillion infrastructure deal. Straight ahead on why this first vote is likely to fail. Good morning, everybody. Im Aaron Gilchrist in New York. In for Hallie Jackson who is on assignment. Lets start with Gabe Gutierrez in new York City and Stephanie Gosk at the olympics in tokyo. Lets talk about this Delta Variant, the infection is surging, really all over the country at this point. Thank you to us about the new steps that officials here in new York City are taking to fight the virus. Reporter yes. Thats right, aaron. Well, as you mentioned, the Delta Variant and counting for 83 of all new Covid Infection across the country and this morning the mayor of new York City is announcing that all employees at cityrun hospitals, there is 11 of them, will be required to be vaccinated or to submit a weekly covid test. Now, the mayor is set to make that announcement any moment now another a News Conference. He actually spoke or talked about it just a short time ago right here on msnbc. There are 22 MillionHealthcare Workers in the united states and we think about 50 of them are not vaccinated. So what New York is doing today i hope will create momentum for both public and private healthcare, to go reach those millions of millions of Healthcare Workers right now, lets get them vaccinated and keep going from there. Reporter now at those hospitals only 58 of employees are vaccinated. That manes 42 are not vaccinated. This move comes after the City Of San Francisco mandateed that all of its City Employees be vaccinated. That happened last month. But across, we were reporting on the surge in cases, especially in the south. Also, the cases are picking up here in the nest. Connecticut, for example, just reported that its Positivity Rate had risen more than a full Percentage Point just in one day. A lot of peoples fears become reality. It seems at least at this point in the state. Lets go to Stephanie Gosk in Tokyo Today where there are concerns growing about the number of infections there. Stephanie, i i dont over know we learned overnight another athlete. Reporter another athlete, Taylor Crab and his brother said hes healthy. Even though he tested positive and he should be able to play. The problem is that covid spreads, obviously. Now you can add Taylor Crabb to that u. S. List that tested positive. Some out of the country. Some here in japan. We know more than 70 cases of covid have been discovered of the tens of thousands of people who are associated with the olympics. And they not just in the u. S. , you have all countries acted. Also, about half of those cases, people who live here japanese People Volunteering taking part in the games then have you these comments from the head of the tokyo organizing committee, who was at a Press Conference. He was asked if its still possible to cancel the games altogether . He said, yes. I want to put that into context. Because even with the Case Weve seen the tens of thousands of people getting tested daily, it constitutes less than. 2 Positivity Rate, which is significantly low and there havent been huge spikes. But if there is a spikes and anxieties here in this country, the official wanted to make it clear the possibility to cancel these games is still there, aaron. Google following the science there, thank you boat. Lets head to Capitol Hill where we are headed to a showdown in the senate. In a few hours, moving ahead on a 100 Trillion vote. The first vote is likely to go down if defeat. Leeanne caldwell is in New York. Senators worked late into the night. Still no deal. Walk us through where we are, where things stand and whats expected to happen this afternoon. Reporter thats right, aaron. They did work late into the night still trying to figure out the final remaining issues. Senator Rob Portman the lead republican negotiator in this group said on cnbc just moments ago, theyre down to four or five remaining issues that still need to be figured out and agreed to. Well, this group is going to continue to meet today. But despite the progress, republicans insist that they are going to vote and block this key Test Vote later today and that is going to force democrats and Senate Majority LeaderChuck Schumer to reassess and figure out how to move forward. Now, our sources are telling us, this is not going to be the end of these negotiation, if this vote fails, in fact, the bipartisan group says they will keep working and talking. They need to complete this legislative test until they vote to move to this legislation. A lot of senators are asking for a monday time line a. Lot of democrats, especially the progressives are growing wary of these bipartisan talks saying that are republicans really ever going to finish what they have started and are they really trying to just kill this entire legislation . And so, the trust is a little bit breaking down up here. As long as this bipartisan group continues to work, the game is not over yet, aaron. John, have you some reporting on this issue as well as leeanne just noted Senator Rob Portman saying there are four or five key issues remaining. What are you hearing from senators working on this bill . Reporter yeah, they dont have a legislative text yet, drafted in bill form. They dont have it scored which means the congressional Bug Office has looked at the legislation and said this is the impact of this. So theyve got a problem. There is not a bill for the senate to actually vote on yet. So whats going to happen, what he wrote it on today is a House Bill that they hope to is up plant with this compromise. So the problem is with the way democrats look at it, if they say we agree until monday, well, that can slide into next week. Democrats have a 3. 5 trillion Budget Resolution they want to get done. This is the heart of Joe Bidens legislative agenda. Theyve got to start open it, which means they got to get the senate on to that legislation. If they stay engaged trying to do this bipartisan bill, theyre not going to be able to get onto the bugger package. So thats the issue they have. The problem the democrats also face, though, is that theyre moderates. They want a deal. So its a needle that Chuck Schumer is trying to thread here, but the clock is against everybody. Were already na late july and things are moving pretty quickly here open The Hill in terms of theyve got to get moving on a bigger package. Leeanne, john laid out the problem here, if Todays Vote goes down in defeat as is expected to do. What options does Chuck Schumer have after this . Reporter so schumer has a couple options. He can try again and move forward with his bipartisan pack am, which hes indicated she willing to do because these negotiations continue or he can put it aside and move to that 3. 5 trillion Reconciliation Package john just mentioned. We think and are getting or there are indications that he is going, not yet going to give up on the bipartisan Plan And Hell try again, probably on monday. Aaron. All right. We will leave it there, thank you both. And we have a lot to get to this hour, including another member of former president trumps Inner Circle just indicted.

Com learn one of Donald Trumps longtime friends and one of his biggest Campaign Fund raisers is waking up behind bars this morning. Thomas barrack is accused of secretly acting as an agent of the united arab emirates. The Justice Department saying he influenced the Trump Campaign and administration to advance the interests of the uae. A spokesman said he will be pleading not guilty to the charges. Lets bring in nbc News Justice CorrespondentPete Williams and Msnbc ContributorChuck Rosenberg for Attorney And Cia official. Pete, ill start with you, barrack is being held until monday for a bail hearing. Walk us through the charges here and whats next. Reporter well, the charge here is a federal law that makes it a crime to lube the u. S. Government on behalf of a foreign government without notifying the Justice Department of that lobbying. Prosecutors say, for example, Tom Barrack got prouae language and inserted it into some trump speeches and arranged meetings with uae officials. The charges say that he was in constant touch with a businessman in the emirates who was close to uae Government Officials and the u. S. Says he met with some of them in December Of 2016 after trump was elected and suggested they give him a Wish List of their Foreign Policy Goals that they would like the u. S. To adopt and he would try to take care of that. He is accused of taking advantage of his insider access, such as his role of the chairman of the Trump Inaugural Fund in 2017. There are some other aspects of this prosecutors say when the fbi questioned barrack about these allegations in 20 fine, he repeatedly made false statement, denying he was lobbying for a foreign country. Two others were indicted, an aide in Los Angeles and a businessman in the uae barrack dealt with. He is said to be at large. Barrack did appear briefly had a federal Court Appearance tuesday in Los Angeles. He will have another hearing on monday. The government will try to set the conditions of his bail. His spokesman said he is not guilty. He will plead not gpt. Whats next is working out the conditions of his release. The government says because hes a billionaire, he has his own plane, he should be subject to restrictions like gps monitoring. Pete, thank you. Lets bring in Chuck Rosenberg now, up until a few years ago, it seems as though these sorts of charges were fairly rare. How serious are these charges against mr. Barrack . Reporter well, first, aaron, up until a few years ago they were rather rare. With the work of the Mueller Team and the special counsels office, we seen it a little more. To your other question, is this a serious charge . So let me give you on the one hand, on the other Hand Answer to that. Its not the lindbergh kidnapping. Tha it is a felony. They come with it jail time. Its not the crime of the century, its a serious felony, as pete explained, also the fact that he lied to fbi agents within they interviewed him about the underlying offense, its a serious matter and he ought to take it seriously, because he could end up both as a convicted felon and in jail. Pete referenced a part of the speech, a Concrete Example that barrack influenced then candidate trump. Listen to this. Well work with our Gulf Allies to develop a positive Energy Relationship as part of our antiterrorism strategy. So prosecutors say that barrack got that language, the Gulf Allies inserted into that particular speech. According to indictment, we know Donald Trump was among the betrayed by barracks hidden alliance for uae for this. The question i guess is for the former president , is he in the clears it relates to these charges against the longtime friend of his . Reporter sure. As it pertains to the former president and these very specific charges, yes, its not about Donald Trump. It is about Thomas Barrack and two other individuals, but fought about the former president. That said, the president or the former president is still in legal jeopardy elsewhere. Its something we have talked about on this network many times. Ly say this, aaron, this was a very simple crime for Thomas Barrack to avoid. Its okay to lobby on behalf of a foreign government. Its okay to insert language into a speech. Its okay to make media appearances. Its okay to writ opeds and advocate the position of the uae. You simply have to register with the Justice Department to do that. Its youll foolish Thomas Barrack would be doing the with the uae without simply meeting a requirement that would have gotten him off the hook. To your question, it is not about president trump. It is serious because there are serious convictions for Thomas Barrack. Thank you.

Some Breaking News from the pentagon right now. Weve learned that we will hear from the chairman of the Joint Chiefs Of Staff general Mark Milley in a few hours here, his first News Conference since those Bombshell Allegation in the book from the washington post. They reported the gem was worried that then president Donald Trump would attempt a Military Coup after the 2020 election. He compared his behavior to nazi arab germany. Nbc is not reporting the News Conference was called because of the book. The general has to know folks like you will be asking what was in that book. Help us to understand what we might expect at this News Conference today. Reporter thats right. This is one of a periodic every several Weeks News Briefing by secretary of Defense Offense and general chiefs milley. We havent had one in a while. As you mentioned, this will be the first since the reports came out from two new explosive reports from two new books. He will get questions about that book. We should get questions about the deter your righting Security Situation in afghanistan. But whats important here is so nature since all these allegations came out that General Milley was allegedly so concerned about president trumps comments and State Of Mind during the transition between the time of the election and the inauguration in january, now that we have these reports that he was so concerned, you know, we can actually ask him about it. I do not expect him to be very candid or provide a lot of color. But well try. One of the reasons i think journalists here at the pentagon are really interested in talking to the chairman about this is at the time we were questioning senior leaders here in the pentagon. Uniformed and civilian. We were getting a very different sense of where their heads were about the situation. People were telling us they were not very concerned about a coup. They were not worried that the military was going to be pulled into it. They continued to tell us how apolitical the military would remain. Now according to his revelations from the book, there was a lot of concern here at the time. Thats really where my head is on this, will we find out the Ground Truth is . Is it somewhere in between . Or were we not getting a straight answer where the military was concerned. I should point out, though, another big topic on Everyones Mind is the taliban. They have been rung the offensive through all parts of the country now. They are pushing towards kandahar. Thats a source of major concern. This will be the first time we can hear from both general Milley And Secretary austin since the change of command last week since Scott Miller left his post in afghanistan. Its very important topics, people need to in a moment we know you will be pressing in this conference this afternoon. Thank you. Thanks. This morning as the Delta Variant spikes across the country, some conservatives and republicans are shifting their messages on vaccines. Congressman Steve Scalise announced he got his first Pfizer Dose over the weekend. He is publicly urging others to do the same calling it safe and effective. On the air waves, Fox News hosts are changing their tunes, including Sean Hannity which once downplayed the seriousness. Enough people have died. I believe in science. I believe in the science of vaccination. The real Life Saver has been the vaccines, which if you can get them, your doctor says are you okay for it. Get it. It will save your life. Keep in mind here, thats not what everyone is saying on Fox News. Here are some of the other messages viewers were sent this week. It makes you wonder how effective are these drugs anyway . Babe i maybe dan, we got Breaking News, if five on the same plane had the covid19 virus. There is no clinical reason to go get vaccinated. I am joined by a Washington Correspondent covering healthcare policy. Doctor Ashish Jha from the dean of public health. Cheryl, Bottom Line here as you put it in your piece today. The message on fox remains a mixed one as do the republican partys message. Even as the messaging slightly shifts here, where are most republicans publicly on this . Well, i think republicans are really split on this. Whats happening is theyre Coming Up against the evidence that we are seeing around the country conservative spots in america where many people are landing in hospitals sick of the coronavirus. And those who are getting sick, who are hospitalized and dying are by and large the unvaccinated. And we know that republicans are much more likely to be vaccine hesitant than democrats. That has some republicans worried. We saw Mitch Mcconnell Yesterday pleading with people to get vaccinated but still if other corners of the party, republicans are either silent or spreading misinformation about vaccination. I was going to say, lets look a little bit more at that, then this divide there seems tok to be in the republican party right now. There are only a few talking about Vaccine Skepticism and misinformation headon. You mentioned Mitch Mcconnell. Lets play a little of what he had to say. These shots need to get in Everybodys Arm as rapidly as possible. To ignore youll these other voices that are giving demonstrably bad advice. If you hear things from the media that suggests its dangerous by that vaccine, they are not serving you well in that media. What has the driving force, the gravitas that can have the ability to prompt people who are vaccine hesitant to actually get a shot . You know, i think thats a good question. Its, frankly, a real question whether or not republicans are going to listen to someone like Mitch Mcconnell and what we are seeing now is really two americas. We often talked about the Red America and the blue america. Now we have the Unvaccinated America and the vaccinated america. And there are two strains of the republican party as well. There are is main Stream Republicans like mcconnell who want people to get vaccinated, who are speaking out, who are urging it. But there are the populist trump republicans who are on the other winnipeg of the party, some of whom are warning president Bidens Door nocks effort, to get people vaccinated, to go doortodoor is like the nazi Brown Shirts or a move to take your guns away. Dr. Ja, lets sort of look at this in the real world. Perception is reality in a lot of cases. As a public expert, how helpful is it to have this Provaccine Messaging coming, whether its by a senator or your favorite pop star, does it really matter . Does it change minds . I think it does. I think its terrific. Its great to hear Mitch Mcconnell do this, congressman scalise. Its mixed. I have been on News Max once a week the last several months extolling the Vir Dhu of the vaccines. So there are places within the conservative media that have been good on this and we seem to have more on it. We need to encourage it. When they do it, we need to praise it, because it will save lives. I want to ask you about a new study that is out. Weve seen some reporting on the john Johnson Johnson Vaccine. They say its not as effective as against the original virus. We should say the study is not peer reviewed or published in a journal as of yet. Where what Johnson Johnson Cfo said this morning. Our team was looking at some of that data and we have to be regarded in terms of a Test Tube Study that makes conclusions of one aspect of immunity. I think its probably best for everyone to defer to Health Official whos have not yet recommended a booster. Right, the Cdc And Fda say you dont need a booster. The study suggests you may need a Booster Shot. People hear this and our heads are spinning trying to figure out what to do. What should people who got the Johnson Johnson shot know . Yes, two weeks ago, there is one study that says its great. Now its this. I think a part is we have to be thoughtful how we report every preprint and new study. When you put all of the data together, right now, i believe all of it suggests the Johnson Johnson Vaccine is extremely help him to pre vent the Delta Variant, which is the thing we care about most. With efadi tore data in. Miami may or may not need a booster, i dont know right now. I think people have to look at each of these new studies with a bit of skepticism. Are you captuing one part of the bigger pick. I think the Johnson Johnson will be effective. Leave it there, we appreciate you both. Thanks. This morning, a fourth member of the Farright Extremist Group the Oath Keepers is pleading guilty for his involvement in the January 6th insurrection. That man a 20yearold admitting for planning the Siege And Breaking and entering in a single fail military formation. Joining me now is scott macfarland, the Nbc Reporter for wrc. Before we talk about caleb barry, you have a new reporting on another Capitol Riot deferred and the request he is making. What can you tell us about that . Reporter he is zach alem. He is the man accused of breaking the window in the house speakers lobby that Ashley Bab Bit climbed through. He told the court he wants to represent himself, interjecting his Lawyer And Judge and saying he wants a Plea Deal so hell take over his own defense. He said the prosecutor, quote, needs to start doing her job and make a Plea Offer. Hes the second defender to try to defend him or herself and Nateer Defendant was ingratiateing himself with the judge. It was postponed until next month. He wants a Plea Deal so do many other defendants. We have a new Plea Offer for the Oath Keeper Caleb barry, pleading guilty to conspiracy, making him the fourth to plead guilty, the third to conspiracy specifically. All four Oath Keep Verse agreed to help prosecutors with the investigation. Thats a big early win for the u. S. Justice department. Thats a very haylevel case. Also new to the Justice Department, a series of new Body Camera videos from the capitol grounds, they tow the veracity of that handtohand combat. New perspectives we havent seen yet from January 6th. These videos were evidence in the case of a Pan Robert morris who was trying to get released from jail pending trial. The judge ordered him held, citing some of these videos. He was accused ought not being a part of the combat against police but of helping coordinate The Movement Of Stolen Riot Shields and the movement of the mob towards the front lines. Scott, thank you.

But his presidency has been plagued by a belief many americans believe Donald Trump won the election. He did not. Thats why we are taking to you anterimcounty michigan. DaSha Burns joins us. How did that place become a Rumor Mill . Reporter what we found in Apterim Coupt just a microcolorado, there are so many communities remain divided months after an election some believe was fraudulent, despite the dozens of lawsuits dismissed and the audits and recounts that havent confurmd the results. But these claims impact real people. They impact real communities and in apterimsigns have not gown, the qanon signs go up. The divisions dont seem to be going anywhere. Watch. Anterim county in the 2020 election gave it a new source of notoriety, making the rural community the unexpected Ep Pe PyKrern Epicenter of debate. President bind won with 306 electoral votes carrying michigan. The clerk says in her community novembers election rages on. It has been chaos from those pockets that believe that trump did when. Reporter soon after polls close, the team reported biden won, the next day, she discovered Human Error made when her team failed to properly update software on Tab Lator machines. Trump was ultimately named the County Werent not beforanterim became a political hot bed. I think it was compromised. I cant say to what degree. Reporter le says he questioned the validity of bidens win after serving on the Audit Team and hand recount, worried about similarlooking ballots. If this can happen here. It can happen anywhere. So you recognize Joe Biden as a legitimate president . I wouldnt say legitimate. Reporter last month, a State Senate Report asserted the results of The General election were accurately represented by certified and audited results. With outside forces havent been stopped, clawing Qanon Supporter and Mike Lindel who headed a Protrump Rally last month. Signs of qafon has emerged and Election Fraud resulted in safety concerns.

A petting sue Bird And Eddy alvarez. For bird, it is herd fifth olympics. For alvarez, he has been in both Winter And Summer olympics. And after months of uncertainty about where the interpreters would be relocated after the troops withdraw from afghanistan. Where they will be moved before they face certain danger from advancing forces in afghanistan. Lets check in on what our forces are saying. Lara is covering the developing story here. The State Department confirming our reporting from earlier this week that an initial batch are going to virginia. What are you learning about where others might be going . My sources are saying that the u. S. Is in the final stages of talks to temporarily house another set of the afghan nationals that risked their lives to help the War Effort at Military Bases in Qatar And Kuwait while they wait. The people that would be going to the u. S. Military balss in Qatar And Kuwait should be finalized are in addition to the 2500 applicants and Family Members scheduled to be flown from kabul to the united states to ft. Lee, a Military Base in virginia, while they do the final medical checks and paper work. This is just for a couple days while they complete the final step of their process and they will be relocated and resettled in the united states. The people going to Qatar And Kuwait are earlier in their application process. As of right now it is not clear how long they have to stay there. Do you know the timeline on this. Is it going to happen immediately next week . What are you hearing . Its not clear yet what the timeline what the agreement will be. It would probably be toward the end of the month in early august. As you know the u. S. Is scheduled to complete its final withdrawal from afghanistan by the end of august. One thing i want to really emphasize here is how dire of a situation this is for these people. These are translators and others that risked their lives and now the fear of retribution, death, death of themselves and their Family Members from the taliban, particularly as we finish up our withdrawal and the taliban continues to make huge gains across the country.
