I work in midtown so its pretty bad. Reporter most new yorkers we interviewed today told us they see more homeless on the streets. Im not used to seeing so many homeless people. I tend to give money. Reporter some give money or food. Others call 311. But today city officials are pushing back after reports that the number of 311 calls about the homeless jumped from 12,700 last year to more than 20,000 calls for the same time period this year. Mayor de blasio spokeswoman says since the city has been publicizing their new 311 app, 311 calls about all subjects are up. And that the percentage of calls about the homeless is still relatively small, and unchanged. City officials insist, street homelessness is actually down 5 since last year and they say that perception of homelessness does not equal reali

These others are just in my way, but not for long because in this town you have to know which way the wind is blowing. And right now, its about to get very windy. I cannot believe that. Thats the house of cards. Yes, it is. Muppet style. I like it. Welcome to morning joe. Mike barnicle is here along with willie, joe, and me. Good morning. Hi, willie. How are you . Pretty well.

Im not running race thats been shaped by a bunch of consultants. Im not offering a bunch of proposals carefully designed not to offend big donors. I passed that stop sign a long time ago. Good morning, and welcome to a. M. Joy. I am here in beautiful manchester, hn hb. We are just 48 short hours from the first in the nation primary. Those comments by Elizabeth Warren which appear to be directed at Pete Buttigieg. Underscore the frustration many Democratic Women are feeling at the dismissal of warren and other candidates. I mean, she does have a point. When you look at the field of candidates who took to the stage in New Hampshire this week, its really hard to argue that the two strongest candidates representing the moderate and the progressive wings of the party werent the two women who shared the New York Times endorsement for weird.

Reporter well, i think it is extremely difficult to verify because nbc news understands from a senior u. S. Official that the family learned that she had died because they were sent a photograph of her and that indicates that she did those pictures arent inconsistent with traumatic injuries. But of course it is very difficult from a photograph to be more specific than that. The family once they got that corroboration, issued a statement describing themselves as you can imagine, as heartbroken, talking about the incredible work that kayla was doing, going to help Syrian Refugees in turkey and then in syria. And they actually released a letter that kayla had smuggled out to them from her captivity by isis.
