>> rehema ellis for us. thank you. >> dylan is tracking the weather for your traveling today across the country. >> the ice accumulating through the southern plains accumulated up to 1/2 inch in oklahoma. it's been falling in this same area for the last almost several days. it's that cold air working in. we're losing the heavier freezing rain now. now, the focus is shifting to just regular heavy rain through eastern texas. this will stretch up into arkansas through the day. if you're traveling this morning, especially along i-35, that's where we're going to see the very icy conditions. remember the overpasses and the bridges? because they freeze on the top and underneath, as well, that makes those extremely slippery. on and off ramps, as well. if you're traveling alosscross i-40 in tennessee, it'll be a wet go, with patch thiy areas of fog. this is not the only storm. cold air and an area of low pressure is developing, and the next winter storm is bringing the possibility of more snow and ice through parts of the plains. early monday, heavier snow will take hold through omaha, nebraska, and works up into minneapolis, where snowfall rates could be 1 to 2 inches per hour. south central minnesota and iowa, we're looking at the possibility of 8 to 10 inches of snow right on the heels of the last cold blast. it is going to be a messy start to the work week, too. >> that it will. dylan, thank you. to the latest of the deadly shooting and the five-hour standoff at a planned parenthood clinic in colorado springs. new information is emerging about the suspect and what might have triggered his deadly nbc's national correspondent miguel almaguer is in colorado springs. >> the shopping center where this went down is cordened off. it's an active crime scene. this as we're learning more about the suspect and what some say was clearly his motive. >> reporter: after robert dear was taken into custody, a law enforcement source says he began ranting about president obama, politics and abortion. police have not released a motive for the shooting that injured nine and left three dead here, but now officials at the colorado springs planned parenthood say they believe the 57-year-old targeted the facility because he opposed abortion. >> it's hate speech going on in our country right now that could be causing more violence than we might otherwise see. >> reporter: dear recently moved to the town. he lived with a woman in a run sewer system or electricity. described as reclusive, even in a small town, few knew him. >> not real personable. quiet, to his own. >> reporter: with dear scheduled to be in court monday, overnight, this community grieved together. but now i see >> reporter: officer garrett swasey gave his life trying to save others. a champion figure skater who grew up with nancy kerrigan. >> one of my best friends. >> reporter: the young father of two was always a standout cop. he rushed into the gunfire. >> his wife is so proud of her husband. yeah. she knew -- she knew what he loved to do, and she knew the risks. >> reporter: there's not just heartbreak here, but also guilt. >> bullets went through the you could see it, you could smell it. >> reporter: she hunkered down five hours as the gunman hunkered down with police. her boyfriend is still missing. she fears he's one of the unidentified still dead. >> i wish i could have held on to him ten more seconds. that's how fast it happened. >> when robert dear was taken into custody, he muttered the words, no more baby parts, referring to the abortion services offered at the clinic. police have not identified a motive. they apparently are still asking the question, why? >> so many questions this morning. miguel, thank you. the 2016 presidential candidates are returning to the campaign trail in full force today. it comes with republican front runner donald trump still defending himself against charges he mocked a reporter who had a disability and a fellow journalist, telling us, trump is lying. kristen welker joins us from the white house with the latest. good morning. >> good morning to you. this morning, a former former named susie parker. she doesn't believe trump's claim that he doesn't remember serge kovaleski because she witnessed them interact firsthand. trump is standing by his assertions, and he's the one demanding an apology. >> reporter: donald trump, defiant saturday, denying he mocked new york time's reporter serge kovaleski who has a con congenital joints disorder. >> i would never mock a person that has disabilities. >> reporter: it started with an article kovaleski wrote in 2001, to back up his claims that thousands of muslims in new jersey celebrated on 9/11, when. when he said his article didn't backup trump, he spoke out. >> i don't remember. >> reporter: the "new york times" called trump's behavior outrageous. trump said the paper owes him an apology, arguing he doesn't remember kovaleski and wasn't making fun of him. >> the person said, i know him. i know him. i said, when? in the 19d 880s. that's a long time. 30, 35 years. that's a long time ago. >> this man is lying. >> reporter: in her first on-camera interview, susie parker, a friend of kovaleski's during the '80s and fellow reporter, said kovaleski introduced her to trump. >> i thought they knew each other. it was a very cordial, friendly meeting of people who knew each other. >> reporter: parker is a self-described democrat but is speaking out to set the record straight about trump's assertion that he doesn't remember kovaleski. >> i said, this guy is an outright liar. introduced me to him, and they were all on a first name basis. they know each other. >> reporter: kovaleski also tells nbc news he was on a first name basis with mr. trump. saying he talked to the real estate mogul at least a dozen times when covering his career in the late '80s for the new york daily news. now, parker says it's important others know she doesn't buy trump's claim he wasn't mocking her friend. citing these images, now widely circulated online. >> you do not forget serge. i'm sorry, he imitated, he mocked him. there is zero questions. >> now, we reached out to the trump campaign for reaction. his spokesperson reiterated trump has repeatedly insisted he doesn't remember kovaleski and had nothing further to add. trump weathered so many wlit cal political fire storms. it remains to be seen whether this will be different. >> thanks. chuck todd is moderator of "meet the press." good morning. good to see you, as always, my friend. donald trump said things now that are offensive to the muslim community, offensive to women, offensive to the hispanic community. this time, he's poking fun at someone who lives with a disability. how real is the concern that even if he's not the nominee, this is the kind of thing that sticks to the gop brand long term? >> well, look, you talk to republican operatives and they're fearful of this. they believe that if you go and do some qualitative research, focus grouping, it's been coming up. middle of the road voters are attributing trump to the republican brand. not to trump itself. there are some republican operatives with other campaigns who believe, this is all trump and voters can discern the antics of trump from the brand of the republican party. but the longer trump is the front runner, the more there is risk. >> let's talk about number two in iowa, ted cruz. appears to be surging in the hawkeye state. to what can we attribute the rise of ted cruz? >> number one, he's put together probably the best organization on the conservative side of things than any of the other candidates. better than trump's, better than carson's, better than anybody else in the lane. that's number one. number two, he's benefitted more so -- if you look at the pops for cruz, it's come at the expense of dr. carson. what changed? paris changed, craig. i think that you have voters who, in particular, evangelicals that liked dr. carson and their second choice is cruz. the more carson is insteadunsteady on national security issues, they've been shopping for another candidate. that's where they land with cruz. >> let's talk about his troubles. ben carson in jordan visiting syrian refugees, apparently told the associated press the camps aren't that bad and that the refugees don't really want to is this the kind of trip that is going to help ben carson's foreign policy? >> it better. the campaign knows he needs it. i just debriefed with him myself on what he learned in jordan. i think that that's why they did this trip. it's symbolic. it's obvious it's symbolic. he's also put out a tv ad associated with the trip, associated with the refugee issue. i think they know they have to pass a commander in chief test. as we talked about earlier, i think right now, he's been flubbing it, this is why he's seen a downturn in the polls. >> chuck todd, always good to see you. thank you, sir. >> you got it, craig. >> watch "meet the press" this morning when donald trump and ben carson will be among chuck's guests. president obama heads to paris today for the global climate conference there. a little more than two weeks after riss sterrorists attacked the city. >> the commander in chief will join other world leaders to talk about how to slow global warmings. the talks will take place under heightened security. security also heightened at home home. the fbi issued a warning for law en enforcement to look for an activist who post add video online threatening a muslim community. >> the former marine was last heard from in scranton, pennsylvania. pope francis is in the african republic this morning. landing in the capital moments ago. it's his final stop in africa, as he calls for peace in a country wrapped with conflict between muslims and christians. an thompson is anne thompson is following pope francis on his trip. >> you'd never know this was the most dangerous part of the pope's africa trip. look at his face this morning. but he is visiting a country, the central african republic, that has been the center of a bloody conflict that's killed more than 6,000 people since 2013. >> reporter: the capital city is a mix of force and trappings to protect pope francis who comes for peace. francis is the first pope to visit an active war zone. this nation is suffering from more than two years of bloody battle between muslim rebels and christians. displacing a quarter of its people, many of them children. >> the pope's visit is a great opportunity, not only to bring the attention on the car situation, but to bring the attention on the children. >> reporter: today, francis visited a refugee camp. tomorrow, he'll meet with muslims at a mosque in one of the city's most dangerous neighborhoods. on the plane to africa, francis own safety, saying he was more worried about the mosquitos. in kenya and uganda, security has been very visible. there have been few of the spontaneous moments that are the hallmark of francis' papacy. still, this has been a very joyous trip. on a continent where the catholic church is alive and growing. >> later today, francis will knock on the door of bangui's theater, starting the holy year of mercy in a city of conflict. erica?
