Transcripts For MSNBCW Chris 20240704

Photo. We begin with nbcs Aaron Gilchrist in New Hampshire where President Biden just touched down a short time ago. Aaron, what are we expecting there . Reporter chris, good afternoon, we expect to hear from the president near the bottom of the hour here, and this is an official event as opposed to the Campaign Events we saw on saturday and on friday in philadelphia area, and in atlanta. Today the president s focus as we understand it from a white house official, will be on lowering health care costs, something he talked about during the state of the Union Address and will reiterate today, highlighting in particular his call on congress to make some changes to enact some policies that he believes would Lower Health Care costs, proposals that are in the president s budget that was released today, the 2025 budget. In particular, theres one portion of the president s policy plan that would reduce rather, cap costs for prescription drugs, theyre drugs that are already capped for people who receive medicare. The president wants to see that extended to all americans. We also hear from a white house official that the president will compare and contrast his policy plans with what he says are the opposite plans the republicans would but forth, the president noting hes heard some republicans talk about making cuts to medicare and to medicaid. Hell also talk about President Trump former President Trump, and how his plans compare and contrast to what the former president has put forward as well, as he did in a new commercial, a campaign ad released over the weekend. I want you to hear part of it, which talks about that and twice talks about the president s age. Im not a young guy. Thats no secret. But heres the deal, i understand how to get things done for the american people. I led the country through the covid crisis. Today we have the strongest economy in the world. For four years donald trump tried to pass an infrastructure law, and he failed. I got it done. Now were rebuilding america. Im joe biden, and i approve this message. Can we do one more take . Look, im very young, energetic and handsome, What The Hell am i doing this for . Now, the theme you can expect to hear moving forward with the campaign, the president is talking about his age through the lens of what hes gotten done, based on his wisdom and his experience as a man of 81 years, and then comparing that to what he says would be the alternative one might see from former President Trump if he were to win reelection. Chris . Aaron gilchrist, thank you. To the latest on haiti now where u. S. Forces are beefing up security at the embassy amid an increase in gang attacks. Andrea mitchell is covering this story for us. The situation has gotten so dire, as you know, andrea, Secretary Of State blinken just arrived in jamaica in the last half hour. Theres an urgent meeting with caribbean leaders. What can you tell us . Reporter the u. S. , we understand, is going to announce that they are disbursing 100 million rapidly of the 200 million that the president rather, the Secretary Of State promised last month for this Multinational Force. But the Multinational Force thats supposed to try to establish some Peace Keeping presence there where criminal gangs are Running Amuck and the Prime Minister himself has left before puerto rico and theres so much opposition to him from the ground, although no direct call from the u. S. For him to step down. So at this point, that Multinational Force, which is supposed to be led by kenya, is still not there. And its basically a lawless place, the u. S. Military evacuated nonessential military rather, Embassy Personnel just this weekend. And, haiti has been just besieged with political problems, there was an assassination in 2020, then in 2021, a judge there declared that this Prime Minister, as well as the widow of the leader, who was assassinated, took part in that assassination. But that investigation cant continue as long as hes still the leader. And so, hes not stepping down yet, but hes in puerto rico, and is fiercely opposed from the ground. I talked to dan foot, who is a former special envoy today, a special envoy who protested over u. S. Migration policies, turning haitians away at the border. And the State Department sharply rebuked him, saying that his advice had been listened to and had been rejected as nonpractical, but foot says that the u. S. Has basically not taken responsibility for supporting the wrong political players and not letting the haitian people determine their own fate. So theres just a lot of political disagreement, and this Emergency Meeting by the caribbean leaders attended by the secretary today is considered, at best, a bandaid so far. We havent, you know, heard from their meetings. But the u. N. Is critical that the effort has not taken off to get the Peace Keeping force thank you. Today a School Counselor testified about his meeting with James Crumbley. That meeting just hours before his sons Shooting Rampage at a michigan high school. Nbcs Adrienne Broaddus is following this for us. What more are we hearing from court today . Reporter chris, good afternoon to you, on the stand right now is an investigator who worked on this case, an investigator with the atf. But before the lunch hour, a big bulk of testimony here on day three came from that counselor who is currently on leave. Were talking about sean hopkins. On your screen right now you see James Crumbley inside of the courtroom. Youll notice hes wearing headphones to help with his hearing assistance. Now, sean hopkins, who was an oxford high School Counselor at the time of the shooting testified that he called james and Jennifer Crumbley hours before the shooting, alerting them about disturbing images of a gun, bullets and troubling messages their son wrote on a math worksheet. He testified he was afraid Ethan Crumbley was going to hurt or harm himself. Heres more of what he said inside of the courtroom. I have parents saying they have to return to work. I have a student that i dont want left alone. And so thats when i asked, is there anything from a discipline standpoint, any reason he cant stay in school . Anything you need to do . And then i made the decision, i made a Judgment Call based on what i had, is i didnt want a student potentially home alone. Reporter and in that brief bit of his testimony you heard him refer to mr. Ejak, hes talking about nicholas ejak, who was the former dean of students who at the time back in 2021 dealt with behavioral issues and discipline. He was trying to find out whether or not they could send, legally, Ethan Crumbley home because the big question has been, why did School Leaders allow him to stay in the classroom after seeing those images and messages on that math worksheet, and then the day before the shooting, the Guidance Counselor received an email from another teacher saying that she saw Ethan Crumbley looking up bullets and ammunition. I also want to underscore that James Crumbley, his communication has been limited. This, after the Oakland County Sheriffs Department said he allegedly made threatening statements. We dont know who those statements were directed toward. Chris . Adrienne broaddus, thank you for your ongoing coverage there. Now to london, where a new statement from the princess of wales has done very little to silence the Conspiracy Theories surrounding a doctored family photo. Nbcs matt bradley is live in front of buckingham palace. Matt, we dont see the princess for months, and now, this apology, a picture that people dont even understand the location of some of the supposed edits. What is going on . Reporter yeah, chris, i dont know whats going on. Im trying to figure it out. If you do, if anybody does know whats going on they can make a lot of Money Selling Stories to the british tabloids, filled with this picture and speculation about the princess and her family this morning. What we can be certain about, and little else we can be certain about is that the palace, it looks like, really kind of scored a known goal here, this is an issue, they seem to want to put this picture out yesterday on mothers day to maybe tamp down speculation, and Conspiracy Theories, some of which were pretty hilarious on social media over the past several months about kates whereabouts and about her health. The palace has always said shes healthy and recovering and theyve always said they wont be releasing regular updates on her health until easter. So, they have, instead, tried to tamp down this speculation. But that, as ive said, was a massive own goal because it has only increased the feverish speculation about where Kate Middleton is, whether shes safe. And we just saw just a couple of hours ago a photo that was released to the public that looked as though, were seeing Prince William in the front of a car sitting next to someone who looks like Kate Middleton but you cant see her very well. The fact is, if the palace was trying to contain this situation, they have done exactly the opposite. And those of us who are on social media, you know, who have been in the face of this kind of harassment, or abuse, or whatever you get on social media, you know that often, almost always, the best response is no response at all. Now, this couple, the royal couple, and their handlers, they had to have known this. There must have been some sort of conversation going on behind the palace walls about what exactly to do, they weighed the Pros And Cons and decided it was time to speak out. That was probably not the right decision. Matt bradley, keep us posted. Thank you. And coming up on Chris Jansing reports in just 60 seconds, not even 91 million can get donald trump to stop talking about e. Jean carroll. His brand new comments and whether he just maybe opened the door to another lawsuit. Based on false accusations made about me by a woman that i knew nothing about, didnt know, never heard of, i know nothing about her [dog whimpers] [thinking] why always the couch .

Right now were watching, as President Biden speaks in New Hampshire, where Aaron Gilchrist just reported, hes outlining his vision for Lower Health Care costs, among other things. New hampshire, one of just three states the president will visit this week as part of a postState Of The Union push, hes also going to be heading to wisconsin and michigan. Today, yet again, the question of what it will take to stop Donald Trumps attacks on e. Jean carroll. When trump was order today pay more than 83 million for defaming her, her lawyers said, quote, all he really understands is money and so you should award him the amount of money that will make him stop. Whether that will succeed, i dont know. Well, now we have our answer, after posting a Bond Equivalent to 110 of the judgment, so thats roughly 91 million, trump is back at it, going after carroll during a Weekend Rally and then again this morning on cnbc. I just posted a 91 million bond, 91 million on a fake story, totally made up story, based on false accusations made about me by a woman that i knew nothing about, didnt know, never heard of, i know nothing about her. I got charged. I was given a false accusation, and had to post a 91 million bond on a false accusation. With me on set, msnbc Legal Correspondent lisa reuben, and Criminal Defense Attorney and msnbc legal analyst danny cevallos. I understand, lisa, there was a new letter from carrolls team regarding this bond, whats in it . Basically, their agreement to the bond. They were given an opportunity by the federal judge overseeing the e. Jean carroll case to object to the bond, either its form or amount, or even the insurer that was involved. They had a limited objection about a particular provision. They seem to have worked that out with trumps folks, and therefore the hearing that could have happened at 3 00 p. M. Today is off. Whether or not there will be an e. Jean carroll iii case is another question entirely, chris. Thats the question now, given what we heard from robby kaplan during the trial well have to wait and see whether or not this helps us to silence him. Could trump have opened himself up to another lawsuit here . This is from lisas own reporting, she pointed out when he made these statements they were pretty similar to what he said on september 22nd, 2019, and the two major prongs are, never met the woman before, and totally false accusations. And, because in this case the judge already found, he applied a doctrine called issue preclusion, when you have the same parties generally speaking, they dont have to be in the same case, but same parties, same issue, and its already been resolved, it often becomes whats called a law of the case. So, going forward, it could be said that every time trump says Something Like this, which is as lisa pointed out, almost identical to what he said, and what he was sued upon in 2019, arguably every time he says this, there doesnt need to be a trial on liability. It can just be, theoretically, a trial on how much he owes every time he keeps saying the same thing, and those words keep coming out of his mouth. So what would that look like, lisa, getting to that point . It would probably involve a new complaint, and then there would be a motion to determine that there is, what danny just referred to, as issue preclusion, that the statements are substantively identical enough that the judge, himself or herself, can determine liability and then go to a jury for the determination of damages. Chris, one other possibility, which enjean carols lawyers have not floated to date, is There Grounds for injunctive relief. In the Rudy Giuliani case brought by two Georgia Election workers where they got 148 million judgment, they are now also asking for an injunction, which would essentially order rudy to keep their names out of his mouth visavis the accusations that were made against them and were false. Thats another option here for e. Jean carroll, particularly if its difficult without waiting for further damages to accrue, and its kind of perverse. Right . She would have to show that shes been damaged to get an award from a jury, but that could entail letting Death Threats pile up or letting awful comments against her pile up on social media. Who should have to endure that . It may be that her lawyers decide their next best step is to ask for a temporary restraining order, or preliminary injunction that prevents donald trump from reciting these same lies again and again as he has. Lets move on to georgia, danny, where we know were waiting to hear whether the judge is going to keep fani willis on the case or whether shes disqualified from the case. We heard last week trumps codefendant was pushing to introduce new evidence about the relationship between fani willis and her special prosecutor nathan wade. So far no word from the judge on that. Do we know why . Judicial Crystal Balling is so difficult and more so with judge mcafee who has been completely inscrutable. Some of the questions he asked made me lean the meter one way and another ques
