Another big story were following, federal terror charges have been filed against the suspect in those bombings and bombing attempts here in new york and new jersey. This as his personal journal reveals much more about a possible motive in the case. Lets begin our coverage with nbc National Correspondent reporter savannah, good morning. That new criminal complaint says the fbi began watching ahmad rahami the day after the first bombing. It says that he was worried he would be captured before he could, quote, carry off his jihad. This as he faces new criminal charges. Today ahmad rahami is charged with using weapons of mass destruction in the bombing of public places. New details emerging from his criminal complaint. The fbi says rah ordering materials to build bombs in june, buying some items on ebay under his own names. The day of the bombings rahami drove himself into manhattan through the lincoln tunnel. The ied injured approximately 31 people in new york. One victim had to have multiple ball bearings removed from her body. After a shootout with police, investigators say they found a killed with antiamerican sentiments. The government continue your slaughter against he also praised Osama Bin Laden and Anwar Al Awlaki. The journal ends with god willing, the sounds of the bombs will be heard in the streets. Gunshots to your police, death to your oppression. Tuesday rahamis father, the fbi in 2014. A neighbor told Police Mohammed called his son a terrorist after ahmad stabbed his brother in a fight. He said he was just angry and had no reason to think his son was a terrorist. With the officers rahami is accused of wounding now rye leased from the hospital how are you feeling . Im feeling like i got shot in the head. Reporter investigators are looking into his frequent visits to pakistan and afghanistan. He got married and his wife was granted a visa to enter the u. S. Overseas shes been questioned by investigators in the united arab emirates, denying any prior knowledge of the attack. We have nothing to indicate at this point that shes involved. Reporter this morning a clearer picture of the suspect. One investigators paint antiamerican and ready to kill. The criminal complaint also says rahami watched jihad videos from his social media account and added that a Family Member took cell phone video of him inside his backyard using incendiary devices. Back to you. All right, thank you. Nbc news analyst juan serrati served as a national we talked about this question whether he acted alone or had help. Were 24 hours further into this right now. Based on what you heard or read, are you moving in any direction on that . Its clear that theres more suspicion around the family, especially given the information about the video taken at the hom two days prior to the attack which seems to be some sort of test of the incendiary device. That raises questions whether th suggested and certainly suggests as we talked about yesterday that this was not a hermit terrorist. This is an individual still living with his family and not hiding his views in some ways so there are more questions no doubt for the family both abroad and here at home. As you say that, we know there was tension between the son and the father. Knowing about unusual activity is different than helping someone. Absolutely right. Weve got to be very careful about that. But no doubt authorities are looking very closely at the matt, as weve seen over time, these terrorists even if Family Members arent aware sometimes have social networks of some sort that are su pouring their cause. So we have to be careful about the lone wolf narrative and mythology because often these are individuals that do have some degree of support. We now know, juan, that there was contact with this individual in the sense of talking to the Family Members after a report about a Domestic Violence incident, checking databases, the fbiai assessment, which is less than an investigation. The fbi never spoke to rahami himself. Understanding that it is easy to have 20 20 hindsight, does that seem like an oversight now . Well, given whats happened, it does. It seems like talking to him would have been helpful, perhaps checking into his travel records more deeply would have helped as well. The fbi in some ways is whipsawed, though, because they have to protect constitutional rights. Their guidelines require them to close investigations and these preliminary investigations if there is not evidence that raises suspicions. So they cant just keep lists of people that are potentially problematic. They have to have a reason for that and that really binds what the fbi can do. Juan, thank you very much. Thank you, matt. We move to politics now. 48 days till t youre counting and Hillary Clinton will deliver an address in orlando today laying out her plan for what the campaign is calling an inclusive economy. Donald trump is holding a rally in toledo, ohio, one of the battleground states hes visited most since securing the republican information. Our latest data shows clinton outspending her rival by a 51 margin. To date the Clinton Campaign poured more than 96 million Trumps Campaign just over 17 million. Peter alexander is here in new york covering it all. Peter, good morning to you. Reporter good morning to you. Were now just five days away from that crucial first president ial debate. This morning donald trump is fighting back against tough new questions about his Charitable Foundation and whether it violated laws that prohibit nonprofit leaders from using Charity Money to benefit themselves or their businesses. Under scrutiny again this morning, Donald Trumps charitab new yorks attorney general, a democrat, telling nbc news hes looking into whether trump used money from the charity to pay for his own legal settlements. The Washington Post reporting trump spent 258,000 to settle various lawsuits. That includes a deal with a golfer who made a Million Dollar hole in one during a Charity Tournament at one of trumps courses but later settled for 158,000 because of a rules dispute. That payment reportedly coming not from a business or personal instead of those businesses paying money, trump had his charity pay money. Thats against the rules if you use your charitys money to pay off debts your businesses have incurred. Reporter the post also reporting this 4foot tall portrait of trump was purchased with 10,000 of Charity Money. Overnight the Trump Campaign responding, accusing the post of getting their facts wrong but not identifying a single example, adding there was not and could not be motive for the Trump Foundation to make improper payments. I mean honestly, places like afghanistan are safer than some of our inner cities. Reporter mocking Hillary Clinton for taking a day off the trail, tweeting sleep well, hillary, see you at the debates. In fact clinton spent the day working, hosting a counterterrorism call with National Security advisers. Meanwhile donald trump jr.

Reporter twitter igniting with outrage including this photo of a young syrian refugee. Mike pence responding with nbcs kelly odonnell. I think whats insensitive is to turn a blind eye to policies that are very likely compromising the safety and security of the american people. Reporter the campaign blame the firestorm on peopl correct than safe, praising don jr. As a tremendous asset. Ironically according to the bbc this morning, the british man who took that original photo, that image of the bowl of skittles used in donald trump jr. s tweet was himself a refugee.

Reporter russia says it didnt do it and claims syrian warplanes cant fly at night. Moscow concedes it was tracking the convoy with a drone and blames this rebel vehicle carrying a heavy weapon. The u. N. Says it knew the area to the clearly marked convoy. If this attack was deliberate, it could well amount to a war crime.
