it is good to be back with you on this second hour of "chris jansing reports." at this hour, donald trump's legal team wants the judge to lift the gag order now that he's been convicted in the new york hush money case. the d.a.'s team is asking to keep it in place, but for how long? and what's changed in the days since president biden took executive action on the border? we're live in california to show you. plus, caught on camera, the new fbi surveillance image of senator bob menendez and his wife with egyptian officials at a steak dinner. the revealing new details from the menendez trial, including how two of those fbi agents posed as a married couple to get this covert photo.

also, it's already pushing 100 degrees in las vegas, and it's only going to get worse. the stark new warning on global temperatures from the united nation, and who officials there think should foot the bill in the fight. our nbc news reporters are following all of the latest developments and we begin with msnbc legal correspondent lisa rubin on trump's new york gag order. so trump's lawyers are asking the judge to lift the order. the d.a. is opposing it. what are we expecting here? >> well, the d.a.'s office, chris, has let the judge know that they would like to submit real briefs, meaning extended argument with case citations and the like on june 13th and june 27th. those are not coincidentally the same dates that briefs are due first from trump's lawyers and then from the d.a. with respect to his sentence. what i think will happen here is that the gag order will remain in place but will be significantly narrowed, and when i think about who will be let free from the gag order, meaning who trump will be able to speak

about, i'm thinking about two people in particular, maybe a larger category, and those are witnesses and specifically stormy daniels and michael cohen, each of whom have given extensive interviews in the days since the verdict. my expectation is that trump's lawyers will be able to persuasively say these folks are allowed to talk about him and the verdict and their role within it. it's unfair and unconstitutional that he shouldn't be able to do the same. and, chris, they're not entirely wrong, as far as i'm concerned. >> lisa rubin, thank you. now to the u.s.-mexico border after president biden's new executive action took effect at midnight. nbc's david noriega is along the border in san diego, and so it's been 14 hours since that new executive action took place. are you seeing any changes? >> reporter: short answer, chris, is not many. at least not many that are visible. let's use where i'm standing now as an illustration. this fence you see is the second fence. there is another fence behind it

and this area in between the two fences is u.s. soil. once a migrant sets foot on u.s. soil, the u.s. cannot push them back into mexico, especially if they are not mexican. there's a process in place, they have to be detained, taken to cvp processing centers, that has not changed. most of them no longer have access to asylum. nevertheless because there's no agreement from mexico to accept more summery expulsions, we're not seeing the border be shut down or sealed. this is going to take time to show any real on the ground effects. to use this point on the border as an illustration. yesterday we saw between 70 and 80 migrants gathered by border patrol. today we saw more than 80. it seemed like it had plummeted. there was a small group, and then a much larger group of 75 migrants from all over latin america showed up. judging by this point, a small

up tick. we cannot reach any conclusions based ob this one crossing. we need to wait and see the border wide numbers. if there's a drop in numbers, it's likely because smugglers have waited to take a wait and see approach, before sending migrants across the border. it's going to take time to fully understand the actual concrete effects of this executive action. >> david noriega, thank you. now to senator bob menendez's trial and the lengths the fbi went to in their investigation. tom winter is following this for us. what's the latest from court, tom? >> the people in the jury are getting a master class on how the investigations are put together, and a lot of white collar and public corruption cases, the type of cases that typically involve members of congress do not involve this type of level of physical surveillance. that's what i was required according to the fbi to determine what was going on at this dinner. as you alluded to at the top of the show, it was two fbi agents,

part of a team of 8 to 15 members of the fbi. they were conducting surveillance video, and getting surveillance pictures, i should say, including the one that you're looking at on screen, and it was testimony that was elicited at trial yesterday, where one of the agents said, who was within arm's length, she testified to of this table, that it was nadine menendez seen there on the left that said to the two individuals, hannah, a businessman we talked about earlier this week who ran halal meat company in new jersey and an unidentified egyptian official where she said what else can my husband do for you is what she the fbi agent testified to, so that is going to only be seen as adding to the evidence alleged by prosecutors that the senator was conducting business on behalf of that businessman from new jersey and that he was doing so in return for benefits that we have obviously talked about in the past, the payments, the gifts,

et cetera, so that's what they're focusing on right now in this case. continue to go talk about this scheme, and the jury has been hearing a lot of testimony along these lines. the senator seen arriving at court, the testimony about this meeting and about some of the surveillance, that will continue, and both the senator, his wife, as well as the two businessmen, we should note, chris, as we have been saying all along have pleaded not guilty, and obviously the trial continues. >> tom winter, thank you. now to las vegas where cooling centers just opened to protect people from scorching heat. nbc's liz kreutz is there where it currently feels like 109 degrees. oh, my gosh, liz. obviously behind you is one way, at least kids are trying to stay cool. >> reporter: hey, chris, yeah, it is hot, and it is only going to get hotter here in las vegas. that's why these kids are out at the splash pad, enjoying the cooler temperatures. cooler, still very hot, early in

the day here, but as of about an hour ago here in las vegas, we are under an excessive heat warning that's going to last until 9:00 p.m. on friday. and tomorrow the city could hit a record. it may get up to 111 degrees. if it does, it will be the hottest it's ever been this early in the year here in las vegas. we've seen that across a huge region. 29 million people are under the heat warnings or advisories here in the west. phoenix could also have record setting triple digit temperatures. that's really the big story. regions that are used to hot weather. how early in the year they're seeing it right now, and these cities are also coming off last year where there were hundreds of deaths because of a heat wave last summer. in phoenix, fire officials say they're going to try new strategies to try to combat some of those deaths this year, people who are being treated for heatstroke might be put into the human sized ice baths on their way to the hospital. here in las vegas, cooling centers have opened, and i was

talking to the person who runs this summer camp with these kids, and they were saying, again, this is the earliest they have ever started to do these outdoor swim activities. usually this is something they would start to do in early july. they're doing it now. they're going to do it for a little bit longer and, then they're going to head inside into the air-conditioning for the rest of the day, which is where a lot of people are going to do today. >> we thank you for standing in the heat for us, and bringing us this report. thank you, liz kreutz. today, the u.n. secretary general office and who when i

asked them, would you run again, say not now. not in this environment. people who are leaving office of their own will because they feel like it's an exercise in futility to be a member of congress. i even go back to the supreme

court and ruth bader ginsburg who considered antonin scalia to be one of her closest friends. when people of different minds used to be able to have civil conversations. would you run for office right now? >> no, because i enjoy being on with you a lot more than running for office. >> correct answer. >> i think there's two ways, chris, to deal with this. one is, if you take a look at the political parties, they have lost power. now who gets elected has been turned over to a bunch of special interest groups, and we can plug that. we can put a finger in the dike. but the bigger problem is the issue of the character. the bigger issue of are we willing to stand up against what we see as unfair or injustice, are we willing to take the heat. that's why i have been saying on this show more than any other show that i appear on, it's going to take some sort of a spiritual impact on all of us to

realize we can't hate that other person. we're all made in the image of the lord. and if you're going to just seek revenge and hate them, you're bringing down our culture. and so that's the longer term, how do we get that character implanted back again, and maybe it's one community at times, i'm writing a book about the power of these faith institutions with people who do miraculous things to make people happy, we have to deal with the short-term problem, how do we plug the dike. to have the power back rather than have it greatly diminished. >> what we know is that questions of character, which even some of donald trump's supporters will raise, i wish you wouldn't say that, i wish you wouldn't act like that, but i'm still going to vote for him, questions about him actually, dasha, being convicted of 34

felonies is not hurting his fundraising. we reported yesterday that him and the rnc combined raked $141 million, an astonishing number for may. now you guys have new reporting about the pro term superpac, maga inc., what's going on there? >> this is a pattern. when trump supporters feel like he's getting attacked, they rally around him, and a lot of time they rally with their dollars. the super pac, maga inc. is telling us they have raised $70 million during the month of may, and this is important, they're laying down an initial $100 million ad buy through labor day. now, the republican party and trump, they have been out raised, out spent, and out bought on the air waves by the biden campaign so far, but they are closing that gap. and remember, the polling is still showing a tight race. add another hundred million, that gap narrows in terms of

money and potentially changing the numbers we're seeing. >> dasha burns, thank you, we appreciate it. dasha was rushing on the subway to report for us. john kasich, thank you, sir, appreciate you coming on the program. >> thank you. always love it, thank you. a former officer who defended the capitol on january 6th just announced a new strategy to support candidates who are running against pro trump republicans in november. harry dunn, launching a new group called dunn's democracy defenders and kicked things off with this new ad. >> i was always ready for game day. two teams lined up. it's us against them. you leave it all on the field. i'm harry dunn, and on january 6th, the good guys won. my fellow officers and i fought those insurrectionists as team, we had each other's backs. we didn't do it for one person or one president, we did it for

our country. >> dunn ran for congress and lost his primary. he's using the money he has left from that campaign to fund this mission. >> the reason why i ran was to do i can do to continue to fight for democracy, to fight to preserve our constitution and to fight the maga extremists and at the top of the ticket, donald trump. we did raise millions of dollars in a very short period of time, and what that told us, what that told me is that the lot of people across the country, that message of our democracy, our the threat of losing it, the threat of this being our potential last free and fair election, it resonates with a lot of people. it worries a lot of people, and it's at the top of people's minds. >> the former police officer is also taking a more active role in president biden's reelection campaign, appearing in key swing states including nevada, arizona, pennsylvania, michigan and wisconsin. today israelis and palestinians clashing in jerusalem as the white house sends top officials to try to

her uncle's unhappy. i'm sensing an underlying issue. it's t-mobile. it started when we tried to get him under a new plan. but they they unexpectedly unraveled their “price lock” guarantee. which has made him, a bit... unruly. you called yourself the “un-carrier”. you sing about “price lock” on those commercials. “the price lock, the price lock...” so, if you could change the price, change the name! it's not a lock, i know a lock. so how can we undo the damage? we could all unsubscribe and switch to xfinity. their connection is unreal. and we could all un-experience this whole session. okay, that's uncalled for.

tensions are high in jerusalem today as thousands of israelis, including many ultranationalists marched through the city's muslim quarter. it was part of the jerusalem day flag march, celebrating the reunification of the city after the 1967 war.

and given the carnage in gaza, extra security was on hand. israelis and palestinians had clashed ahead of the procession. one far right israeli lawmaker is calling on revelers to visit temple mount, a holy site to jews and muslims and a flash point for violence in the past. those are the ultranational members, threatening to take down the government. the white house insists those talks are still very much alive. and this week, two top officials are heading back to the middle east to get a deal across the finish line. joining us now, nbc's josh lederman and monica alba. so, josh, what is the security situation right now in jerusalem? >> well, it's very tense, following those events in the old city, and the one to really watch here at the moment, chris, is ben-gvir, the far right national security minister of israel. he's really setting the tone for these protesters for the ultranationalists right wing in

israel. based on kind of a biblical interpretation of the land to israel. he is saying today that the old city, the temple mount, belongs to us, meaning belongs to the jews, even though that is a holy site on the temple mount that is holy also to muslims. it's supposed to be administered by jordan, and he says the same thing about the gaza strip, saying that he wants to see jews resettling in that area. when it comes to the northern border with lebanon, where there has been so much tension, including that shooting near the u.s. embassy near beirut earlier today, he is now calling for war. he wants to see israel open a second front to destroy hezbollah, and on that point, he may not be as far off from main of israelis who have been displaced from their homes in northern israel for months now as a result of the back and forth fighting between israel and hezbollah, but he's farther to the right on many other

issues and the problem here is the issues this is causing for prime minister netanyahu's very very fragile coalition, as ben-gvir, and other far right politicians are threatening to leave the government in netanyahu agrees to the cease fire that president biden has put forward, that is risking the potential collapse of netanyahu's government. so that is believed to be one reason that netanyahu has been kind of equivocating on that israeli cease fire proposal that president biden laid out, putting new conditions or reaffirming previous pre-conditions about that, before a deal can be struck by that. it's one of the reasons, tension in gaza, as well as in the old city of jerusalem are so high right now, chris. >> well, monica, president biden is sending the cia director and the top middle east adviser to the region, trying to advance the cease fire deal and hoping to bring down the temperature. tell us what we know about where the talks stand right now? >> reporter: and we've seen this

happen time and again, chris, where the u.s. has sent these key negotiators to participate in these talks, and it's not like there's a formal meeting of the parties. it's to continue to have conversations with the key players in the region, and that is what the president is really hoping his senior officials can do here to keep this going. but in terms of where that stands, there had been some questions about hamas's own view, about israel's willingness to accept the current temperatures on the table, but from the u.s. perspective, they are saying that this is still something that is very much being considered still in the moment. here's how national security adviser jake sullivan put it this morning on the "today" show. >> it is still a live proposal. it's still an israeli proposal. israel is a raucous democracy, so there's a lot of talk and a lot of chatter, but the israeli government has reconfirmed repeatedly, as recently as today that that proposal is still on the table, and now it's up to hamas to accept it, and the whole world should call on hamas

to accept it, the g7 countries just put out a statement yesterday calling on hamas to come to the table, do the deal, get the cease fire, get the hostages home. that's what president biden is focused on. >> reporter: the president is overseas in france, chris, but he has been getting regular updates and briefings about any developments here, and he has been asking his top officials to make sure he is on the loop on all of that that's happening because as you can imagine, other world leaders, his counter parts throughout these key meetings will be asking about this and also putting international and diplomatic pressure on the u.s. to continue to ask that it do everything it can to see if this hostage negotiation and cease fire deal can come to fruition. that's also why you saw the national security adviser meet with the hostage families of those americans who are still believed to be held in gaza. yesterday it was his ninth such meeting, and these are regular communications that we expect to continue, but the families as you can imagine are just as bracing for any kind of news

here and hoping for some positive development out of this. and they also still believe this is something that could happen. it's just a matter of when and how, which of course is very complex, chris. >> so, josh, let me ask you about northern israel, the ongoing clashes between israeli defense forces and hezbollah, which appears to be escalating in recent weeks. now some members of netanyahu's coalition, the same people who oppose a cease fire in gaza are calling for outright war in lebanon. tell us what's happening there? >> over the last several days, we have seen fires erupting in northern israel. you're seeing the pictures of it right now, as a result of rocket fire coming from lebanon. we should say the back and forth between israel and hezbollah has been going on for months since the start of israel's war in gaza. we have talked about it on the show plenty of times, and there has been a cycle of repeated concern that this could go beyond this tit for tat back and forth into an actual all-out war.

now, we have all of these israeli citizens who have been evacuated from the north. that is putting a lot of pressure on israel's government to tamp this down and do something about it. that is what is leading ben-gvir and others to say it's not enough to shoot back and forth, it's time to go to war. netanyahu in israel this morning saying they are considering some very significant action against hezbollah on the northern border, chris. >> josh lederman, monica alba, thank you both. we've got breaking news from the pentagon. defense secretary lloyd austin's chief of staff announcing today she is resigning. kelly magnussen is one of the few people that knew austin was hospitalized but did not tell the white house or senior pentagon staff. secretary austin didn't say anything magnussen stepping down, but did praise her leadership, counsel and selfless service, adding i am and will remain in her debt. in just over an hour, a major reproductive rights bill

we're now just a little more than an hour away from the latest battle in the war over reproductive rights. senate democrats are forcing republicans to go on the record over something that has been a political challenge for many of them, the right to contraception.

democrats believe this is a battle that helps them in november, and that message is showing up in a big way, literally and figuratively. just a ten-minute walk away from the capitol. today, americans for contraception unveiled a 20 foot inflatable iud at union station in d.c. ali vitali is reporting from capitol hill. also with us, mary ziegler, law professor at the university of california davis and author of several books, including dollars for life, the antiabortion movement and the fall of the republican establishment. good to have both of you here. tell us about this vote and where democrats are going to take this fight from here. >> look, this is the natural next step for democrats who are trying to use this month, where at the end of it, they will see the second anniversary of the dobbs decision, which overturned the roe precedent that enshrined a right to abortion across the united states. of course that's what touched all of this off in a policy sense. now, democrats are trying to use their majority on the senate side to continue highlighting

aspects of reproductive health care, not just abortion, but other things they want to try to protect. we're likely to see next a push around ivf protections, certainly that's something that's bubbled to the surface in recent months. today, we'll see them take really a messaging vote on enshrining the right to access contraception. anything fda approved. intrauterine devices, making that point outside union station. of course we're also talking about birth control pills, condoms, other things of that nature. this is really meant to put republicans on the spot, and for democrats to allow, highlight and a contrast on how republicans will vote on this, versus how democrats will vote on this. there are, though, some republicans who are going to vote yes on this, or at least we expect them to in the next hour or so. among them, lisa murkowski and susan collins, often the two republicans who will cross party lines when it comes to things

like reproductive health care and reproductive access. not always, but certainly on this one, and in the words of senator lisa murkowski when she said, okay, if you want the political message out there, my message is we should protect contraception. other republicans are saying this is politics, a vote that doesn't need to happen. democrats, of course, trying to make this broader point, and it underscores how salient this issue is going to be in november. >> mary, our folks talked to a number of members of congress on capitol hill who say that this is really a solution to something that's not a problem. they say nobody's really pushing for contraception to be outlawed. when you talk to folks on the other side, what they'll tell you is, yeah, it was not very long ago that people said, oh, roe v. wade is codified, it's law, it's not going to be overturned, and where we are today is that millions of women do not have the right in their own states for an abortion.

so is the concern over contraception, you think, real? >> i think one of the concerns that's kind of missing from the conversation is that no one agrees on the definition of contraception, right? so it's true that you don't hear many conservatives saying they oppose contraception, that's emerging on the right as an argument. common contraceptions, a common point by major groups like students for life. we saw it in the hobby lobby decision from the supreme court in 2014. the argument that iuds, birth control pills, emergency contraceptives should be banned under abortion laws. so i think there are threats to contraceptives. they're not the threats we may have come to expect. that's one of the reasons this is a harder issue for republicans. they're not just voting against this because it's a messaging bill. they voted for messaging bill about same-sex marriage. they're also voting against contraception as the tougher issue for their base than a lot of other things. >> there's also an argument that a lot of folks who are in favor

of protecting reproductive rights make which is that much of this over the course of the last 50 years and i'm talking about the reproductive rights fight has been fueled by evangelical christians who take a biblical view, and really overall would like to see the results of the sexual revolution reversed. they think that was bad for america in part and parcel of that is sex before marriage, and contraception, which allows that to easily happen. is that overstated? >> no, i mean, i think if you've studied social conservatives, they don't like contraception and what it's allowed. i think that what you're talking about, if you're asking about the threat to contraception is a question of time line and imminence. it's probably fair to assume that a lot of conservatives are not going to push bans on contraception in the near term, but whether they try to apply those bans on abortion to common

contraceptives or build in the longer term toward contraception is a different question. we have seen conservative opportunities litigating cases, with contraception for minors, for example. some of these steps are being taken, even if we're not going to see a full fledged attack on contraception in the immediate term. >> the evangelical right and not just moderate but pragmatic republicans. >> there are some republicans who look at this vote and think that it might be worthwhile to at least entertain doing something on this issue. most republicans who i talked to and operatives that i talked to privately will acknowledge this is a real albatross for them going into 2024. the republican position writ large on abortion and reproductive health care is out of step with where the majority of americans are, that was always true before roe as well, but now that you're post roe we are in this period, you have had

tiny litmus tests over the course of a few elections in various states, but 2024 is the biggest electoral test we'll face and that's where the concern stems from. >> mary ziegler, and ali vitali, thank you both. meantime, the colorado republican party is taking an extreme stand against pride month. the state's gop sent out a campaign e-mail titled god hates pride that features a graphic of a rainbow flag with the phrase god hates flags. and following criticism of that e-mail, the state party's official x account posted a message saying burn all #pride flags this june. this isn't the first time colorado republicans spread antilgbtq messages. last month, the party called for parents to pull their children out of public schools claiming that democrats are trying to, quote, turn more kids trans. coming up, children and teens in new york could see some major changes to their social

media. that's next on "chris jansing reports" only on msnbc. on msnbc , i knew something was wrong. since my fatigue and light-headedness would come and go, i figured it wasn't a big deal. then i saw my doctor and found out i have afib, and that means there's about a 5 times greater risk of stroke. symptoms like irregular heartbeat, heart racing, chest pain, shortness of breath, fatigue, or light- headedness can come and go. but if you have afib, the risk of stroke is always there. if you have one or more symptoms, get checked out. holding off on seeing a doctor won't change whether or not you have afib. but if you do, making that appointment can help you get ahead of stroke risk. contact a doctor and learn more at notimetowait.com here's to getting better with age. here's to beating these two every thursday. help fuel today with boost high protein, complete nutrition you need...

[ryan laughs] parents who are looking for help to regulate what their children see on social media may get it in new york. lawmakers say they're finalizing a bill to prohibit platforms from using algorithms to steer content to kids without parents' permission.

governor kathy hochul says the measure would make social media less addictive, and less damage to go mental health. the bill is getting blow back from tech trade groups and privacy advocates. rehema ellis is following this for us. what exactly would this do? >> governor hochul, the governor of new york hopes it will stop what she says is an epidemic of social media despair among our kids. you pointed out a couple of things. that is without a parent's consent, you can't have a flood of negative algorithms going into a child's social media platform. no overnight notifications, that means from the hours of midnight to 6:00 a.m. cut it off. let these kids get sleep. and in addition to that, they would not be able to get data on kids under 18 and then profit by selling that data. what's happening with it, it's going through the legislative process, the governor is hopeful that it gets signed before the end of this legislative year. but you also mentioned that there is pushback from social

media companies. they're wondering, number one, how will we determine and prove and verify that someone's under 18. for those people who think there might be monetary detriment, some parents might be able to hold these companies responsible for what they say is their child's mental health concerns. those companies would want to know how are you going to do that, and how would you be able to prove that this device is really affecting children's mental health. >> complicated stuff, but we'll follow it, and i know you will, thank you. launched into space. how today's mission heats up a rivalry in the private space race. but first, less than 24 hours until the 80th anniversary of d day, one world war ii veteran who served as a radio mechanic is waiting for an emotional return for a celebration, 100-year-old harold terrence has traveled back to normandy to marry his 96-year-old fiance.

right now, boeing's star liner capsule is embarking on a

historic journey into space. it is the company's very first successful crude mission launch after two scrubbed missions in the past weeks. nbc's marissa parra is at kennedy space center for us, third time is the charm, marissa. tell us about the mission and the astronauts who are along for the ride. >> reporter: yes, so a third time was indeed the charm as proven today not that long ago, chris, and this was something that was highly anticipated, long awaited after a series of delays. we're not just talking about in the last month. there were three attempts at this exact mission that you witnessed earlier today. this has been delayed by years. over the years, we have seen when it comes to boeing star liner, there were issues with software glitches, parachute complications, there was issues with flammable tape, but then when we were looking at the very first attempt to have a crude mission to the international space station that was about one month ago there were separate issues, a valve issue, a helium leak that was discovered. there was another attempt this past weekend.

a computer issue then. so today was as we mentioned, long awaited, and finally in orbit, they are on their way to the international space station, and this really does come with a unique sort of mission, a test flight, and they are test pilots, veterans at that. this requires you to be very smart. they are essentially writing the handbook on how to troubleshoot issues that future astronauts aboard star liner might come across. they're going to be doing a series of tests, looking at every aspect that could be better. even as simple as suits, could they be more comfortable, the displays, should they be darker. every aspect is being tested to really get them to the point that they want it to, which is passing certifications so that they can become an alternative, chris, to spacex. spacex, you remember, four years ago started taxing astronauts to the international space station. before that, remember, it was russian soyus was the only option for american astronauts

for a while to get to the international space station. the last four years, it was spacex, they had a monopoly on getting astronauts to the space station. this is a busy week when it comes to what is slated, what is scheduled for launches this week because we not only had this his -- historic moment, remember, quickly, chris, i want to mention, starship is supposed to be part of the mission to the moon, so, again, a busy week, but exciting week for space news, chris. >> marissa parra, thank you, and that does it for this hour. make sure to join us for "chris jansing reports," 1:00 to 3:00 p.m. eastern here on msnbc. our coverage continues with "katy tur reports" right now. good to be with you. i'm katy tur. what will happen i
