update in half an hour. >> we are two days away from st. patrick's day. luck of the irish. good morning. breaking overnight, a portion of president trump's tax returns finally revealed. the leaked document showing he paid $38 million in taxes in 2005. is it what the rivals hoped for or is it a bust. and wiretapping claims against president obama and senator lindsey graham calling for the fbi to hand over any evidence immedia immediately. >> they're about to screw up big time. >> joining us for a live interview. what a mess, temperatures plunge overnight adding to that deadly nor'easter that paralyzed

much of the east coast. up to 3 feet in some areas, but major cities spared the worst. hundreds of thousands without power and schools closed and airlines scrambling to get up to speed. hundreds of thousands of twitter accounts hijacked overnight. nazi symbols posted on the pages of celebrities. politicses and media outlets, who was behind it. take two, the dad whose live television interview became a worldwide sensation after his children crashed into the room goes back on tv. >> and my son came in, in a little roller, then it was her and nothing i could do. >> the lesson he says he will never forget wednesday march 15th, 2017. from nbc news, this is "today" with matt lauer and s savrannah guthrie, live from studio 1 arks in rockefeller plaza.

lots to cover in politics, our top story this morning. >> that's right. let's get right to it. we're getting a rare look at some of trump's tax returns, documents he refused to release during the campaign. there's new fall-out over the republicans' plan to replace obamacare and the president's claims that phones at trump tower were wiretapped. period sxraealexander is at thee house. good morning to you. >> reporter: good morning, we're getting our first reaction from the white house. tweeting how a reporter went to his mailbox and found his tax returns, calling it fake news. the white house says the leaked 2005 tax form reinforces what donald trump has been saying all along he's a successful businessman but also refocuses a spotlight briefly on mr. trump's unwillingness to turn over his

tax returns. this morning the release is raising questions about who leaked the form and why. overnight, a rare look at documents president trump is still himself refusing to share. >> we have his federal tax return for one year for 2005. >> reporter: msnbc's rachel maddow airing a portion of mr. trump's 2005 tax return. the words "client copy" stamped on the pages reporting mr. trump paid $38 million on federal income taxes on 1$152 million o reported income writing off 1$10 million in losses, his effective tax rate, 25%. the reporter who obtained the document suggests they could have come from donald trump. >> trump has a long history of leaking material about himself when he think business it's in his interests. >> reporter: the white house verifying the release while attacking the media. you know you're desperate for

ratings when you're willing to violate the law for two pages of tax returns from over a decade ago. trump has repeatedly refused to share calls about his tax returns. >> the only ones that cares is the media. >> reporter: he says it proves it is a sham. the rollout of the healthcare plan and today, the president will deliver a much needed booster shot taking his message on the road touting jobs in detroit and healthcare in nashville. despite fierce criticism some within his own party the white house isn't abandoning the plan. >> this is it. if we don't get this drawing, the goal of repealing obamacare and instituting a system that will be patient centered is going to be unbelievably duval. this is the vehicle to do that.

>> reporter: democrats keeping up the pressure. >> trumpcare is a wreck. >> reporter: arguing the republican bill only benefits the rich. a subcommittee to have a hearing on the election and lindsey graham warning the fbi not to ignore his letter backing up the president's wiretapping claims. >> if i'm going to make an announcement about the letter and let the fbi know they're about to screw up big time if they keep running to the intel committee and not answer that letter. >> reporter: the white house still standing by president trump's explosive wiretapping allegation, aimed at president obama. >> i think he feels quantitatco we will vindicate him. >> reporter: basically some republicans saying it's put up or shut up time from the administration including new comments from the judiciary committee chuck grassley in iowa

in anne expected move says he will block the confirmation of the deputy related pick until he gets russia related answers from the justice department. matt and savannah. >> thank you. we will talk to senator graham about russia's interference in the elerksz and the president's accusations he was wiretapped, we will find out if senator graham gets the information he wants in a moment. >> to the tax returns, our chief correspondent is with us. we get a two page summary from 2005. is there a bombshell here? >> not a bombshell. but we learned the president like many americans pays a lower rate lawfully than other americans who make less than him. >> that's something he says, i fight not to pay as many taxes. >> the white house put this information out preemptively last night and then said it was illegal for reporters to talk about it. is it? >> federal law tightly governs

tax returns unless you're an accountant. you can go to jail for leaking them. in this area, the media can usually report on unauthorized disclosures without being part of the underrlying crime if thee was a crime. >> quickly, based on what was leaked and timing any ideas who leaked it? >> that's the big question. we had over a year there was a lot of incentive and demand to get these things and they never came out. here we are after the election, a very small number of people who would have this. donald trump, his accountant, his family, people at the irs. in that small universe, forever they leaked it, we don't know. i will tell you a lot of what's in there goes toward what donald trump has said, he did have high revenue. it's not illegal to leak your own tax returns. >> the document says "client copy." >> it says client copy and who got it we don't know. >> thank you. joining us republican senator, lindsey graham. nice to see you. >> good morning. slow news day. >> exactly.

the reports are you have given director comey a deadline of today to let you know whether there is an active investigation into russian ties to the trump campaign. a, is it true, b, do you think you will get that information today? >> yes. two weeks ago we met with director comey who i like and admire, and told him by the 15th, we'd like to know if there's an active criminal investigation because congress should not interfere with it. we will have a hearing on russia. i don't want to bump on a criminal investigation if there is one. the entire country needs to know if there's something there there. in terms of the letter we wrote i want an answer. we asked the fbi and department of justice for any evidence of a warrant for wiretapping, i haven't heard a thing. you said if that doesn't happen the fbi is about to screw up big time. what will happen if they don't comply. >> congress is about to flex its muscle. senator grassley has been an

ally with senator feinstein, the ranking judiciary chairman. we will get a subpoena for the information and hold up the deputy attorney general's nomination until congress is provided with information to finally clear the air whether or not there was ever a warrant issued against the trump campaign. >> there's a couple issues here, director comey should tell you today whether or not there's even an investigation into trump campaign ties to russia and number two this issue we're talking about, the president made an accusation against then president obama he power twiret his phones. you have asked the fbi to produce any evidence of warrant or application for warrant to survey trump or trump tower. do you think you will get that evidence today? >> i think if we don't get it today the congress is going to ramp up the pressure. there are two different questions, is there an investigation? i need to know before i move forward to investigating russia from a congressional link. i don't want to interfere with a criminal investigation if there

is one. in terms of whether or not there was a warrant, that's an easy question to be answered. the president has suggested the former president had his campaign wiretapped. the only way you could do that is through a warrant and tell me whether or not there was ever a warrant issued against the trump campaign. they're going to have to answer that question. >> it's not the first time the president, senator, has made some kind of accusation and said to congress, you guys should look into this. you are really pushing hard to get answers here. are you trying to send the president a message that what he tweets is going to be held -- he's going to be held accountable for what he tweets and accusations he makes? >> i'm trying to take him up on his challenge to look into his accusation. i don't know of any evidence where the fbi tried to obtain a warrant against the trump campaign to wiretap them. the accusation was made. he challenged congress to get to the bottom of it. we will. if you want to challenge the congress to do things in the future, we'll fake you on it.

>> personally, you're the kind of guy strikes me as my friends would say a good b.s. monitor. you know what that means. >> yes. >> what does your monitor tell you about this wiretapping story, senator? do you think it's real? >> when i first heard it, i thought that was a wild claim. i really don't know. if it's not true, just tell me it's not true. why is it taking so long to get the answer? i have no evidence of it. i'm suspicious of it but now i'm getting concerned because it's taking so long to answer my letter. >> let me ask you about this. the white house has simultane s simultaneously dug in, the press secretary saying yesterday they're confident the president's accusation will ultimately be verified and he'll be vindicated. at the same time there they're moving the goalpost. when the president says i was wire tapped put it in quotes and meant all types of surveillance. there were several tweets he actually said president obama tapped my phones.

what do you make of that and do you buy the shifting allegation what it is. >> it has changed from president obama wiretapped my phone to was there any warrant issued against the trump campaign, trump tower or trump operatives? i want to know if there was. if there's not we need to put it to bed. here's something that would be very explosive. if the federal government was able to obtain a warrant from a judge they had to have probable cause the trump campaign was colluding with the russians. director of national intelligence clapper says they had no evidence of that and there wasn't a warrant. if there was a warrant it would be big news. i don't think there's a warrant and i wish they'd tell me one way or the other. >> there's healthcare, senator j as it's written now in the house, is it dead on arrival? >> it is mortally wounded. i don't know if it's died yet. rand paul will not vote for the

house bill because he believes refundable tax credits is an entitlement in another form. my state did not take medicaid expansion. the house bill allows open enrollment for the entire country all the way through 2019 for medicaid, which is fundamentally broken. i don't like that. this is the last best chance for republicans to pass healthcare by themselves and screw it up. here's what i hope the president would do. try to get a good bill. if you can't, let obamacare collapse and challenge the democrats to help him fix a problem they created. >> real quick question. is this a good bill? is it a good deal? >> not right now. medicaid is not where i want it to be. this thing will collapse, obamacare will under its own weight. we're trying to do too much too quick as republicans. we're running through stop signs like the cbo letter, much like president obama did. slow down, get it right. you're not going to get 60 votes to buy insurance or cross state

lines. that is a fantasy in the senate. if you think that's important to healthcare reform, it's never going to happen in the senate. >> too bad you don't speak your mind, senator. it's awfully nice to have you here. thank you so much. >> good morning. tomorrow on "today," we will have an exclusive interview he is very familiar with, former south korea governor ambassador to the united nations, nikki haley. >> he does have a way with words. cleanup under way. the powerful storm hit the east with heavy ice and snow and strong winds. we have complete coverage getting with our national correspondent, miguel. he ae's in worcester, massachusetts. good morning. >> reporter: good morning. this is what so many are waking up to in worcester. homes and cars buried under a thick layer of snow. not just this street. take a live look from our drone, so much of this community, much

of this state looks just like this. we are five days from spring and buried in snow. overnight, more sleet and snow from a publinishing storm pumm l pummelling eight states and 70 million people see. one week it's warm, next week blizzard. >> reporter: with parts of the northeast buried under 2 feet of snow and ice the roads were deadly and dangerous. in new hampshire, a teenager lost her life after losing control of her car. in connecticut, an elderly man killed by a plow, while another driver flipped over in upstate new york. >> it's really bad. >> reporter: in pennsylvania, an 80 mile escort by the national guard to rush a 2-year-old to the hospital. a half-dozen students injured after a school bus rollover on slick roads. a tractor-trailer jackknifed on a boston bridge. homes were covered in ice, our team in the middle of it all.

>> i'm here in nyack, new york, 45 miles an hour wind gusts and car alarms set up and have several feet high snow piles left. >> reporter: several of the big cities still quack quite a punch here. nearly 8 inches of snow on the ground at the point most people home. >> snow brought this city to a stand still and advising people to stay home and stay safe. >> with hurricane force winds whipping through the region, massive waves pounded the coast, a blizzard in worcester and blistering reminder, winter isn't over yet. for those hit by cold temperatures and all that snow, the weather is not really going to help today. the temperature will stay below freezing across so much of this state. while it's white in cities like worcester, in big cities like washington, d.c. and new york by the coast, they were spared for the most part.

that doesn't really help the folks here waking up to all this snow. back to you guys. >> thank you. the storm is still having a major impact on air travel coast-to-coast after the cancellation of thousands of flights. how are the airlines getting back on track? n nbc's, gabe gutierrez is at the airlines this morning. >> reporter: good morning. they're back up and running but the challenge today is re-bo re-booking all those stranded passeng passengers. tuesday, there were more than 6200 cancelled flights across the country. already. more than a,000 and. lg, newark, jfk, baltimore and boston. we look at this misery map, there is some red but you see

delays starting to creep up as well. public transportation is mostly back up and running, amtrak running modified service in the northeast. if you do not have a flight and are re-booked, chances are you're out of luck and it could be several days before airlines clear this backlog. >> thank you. >> that brings us to al. what do we expect? >> we were talking before the broadcast, the chief of operations for the weather predictions center in maryland said he gave an interview to the ap saying on monday afternoon, we actually knew that the to tell ta tell -- the totals along the coast would be lower than we thought but didn't change it because we wanted people to heed the forecast. >> not take it too lightly. >> i see that as a cover your butt kind of thing. the fact is we did say there was going to be a change -- there could be a change in that path. that would make a big difference along the coast.

closer to the coast we would see less snow. we were within the lower republican national conventi new york city picking up 4 inches. new jersey, seeing 12 inches, poughkeepsie, 23 inches, hartford, 15. today, we will see wraparound snow, lake effect snow, snowfall amounts additionally from rochester to burlington, vermont, we could see another foot of snow thursday. we will get to your local forecast coming up in the next 30 seconds.

good morning. i'm kari hall. a few more clouds. mild temperatures. low to mid-50s. a mix of sun and clouds. a chance of rain in the north bay. and that's your latest weather. matt. >> al, thanks very much. coming up, new calls for the immediate release of an american college student serving time in north korea, more than a year after his controversial arrest, is the u.s. any closer to getting his freedom.

president trump's 2005 federal tax return making headlines this morning. he reported $150 million in income that year and paid $38 million in federal taxes. during the campaign, mr. trump was the first major party nominee since richard nixon to refuse to release his tax returns. hundreds of twitter accounts were hacked overnight. images of nazi symbols and other propaganda posted on the pages of celebrities, businesses and media outlets. an investigation is now underway. pro-turkish hackers are suspected. coming up, we'll have a closer look at new concerns over cyber security here in the u.s. in the meantime, the u.s. state department is calling on north korea to immediately release an american college student nearly a year after he was sentenced to 15 years of hard labor for stealing a political banner from a hotel. kelly cobiella has the latest on the story. good morning. >> good morning. this young man from ohio, otto

warmbier, is one full year into this 15-year sentence of hard labor in north korea. so far, no sign the secretive regime is ready to make a deal. >> reporter: last time otto warmbier's family saw him it was on a tv screen last march, begging for his freedom in a pyongyang courtroom. >> it was the worst decision of my life. >> reporter: the offense? trying to take a propaganda banner as a souvenir. the sentence? 15 years hard labor. the university of virginia student was in north korea on a five-day tour. not illegal but risky for an american. former governor richardson, who helped free political prisoners before, now working for his release. >> medically, we don't know how he is doing. he is a healthy, young man. initial reports were that he was okay. but the north koreans have not

given him the access from our swedish representatives that any political prisoner deserves. >> reporter: instead, north korea's unpredictable, young leader, kim jong-un, is firing missiles and testing the new trump administration. five launches last week. one last month during the japanese prime minister's visit to mara -a-lago. the response? attack drones. this morning, an american aircraft carrier is in the seas off south korea for military drills. the north warning of merciless attacks if the u.s. gets too close. kim jong-un has released american prisoners before. matthew miller and kenneth bay were both freed in november of 2014, after former director of national intelligence james clapper delivered personal letter from then-president obama. bay served two years of hard labor. >> i learned a lot.

i grew a lot. >> reporter: this time, with kim jou jon jong-un, richardson says it is different. >> we don't know what he wants. there is nothing to barter to get this kid out. in the meantime, he is sitting there suffering, sometimes forgotten. >> reporter: with rex tillerson in japan, it is, quote, hard to say whether warmbier's case will come up. we never lose sight he's being held unjustly and continue to press for his release. former governor richardson told nbc news he was allowed to travel with the delegation to north korea late last year. he said he wasn't given access to warmbier, but they put forward a proposal for his release. richardson said the north koreans didn't say yes. they didn't say no. matt and savannah, they simply didn't respond. guys? >> kelly cobiella, thank you. let us take a turn and get a

we're back. 7:41. our ongoing series, the hacking of america. more timely than ever in the light of the overnight hacking of twitter accounts. >> tom costello traveled to london to talk to the world's leading experts on cybersecurity. must have been fascinating. >> haunting is the bottom line. experts are issuing a code red threat level as the global pace of computer hacking has picked up dramatically, going from phishing and malware spans to full-throttle espionage. >> reporter: the leaked cia

documents offer a glimpse into the hidden world of espionage. breaking into cell phones and supposedly secure messaging apps. coming amid allegations of russian meddling and international fraud, the hacking of america now is a global phenomenon. there really are no international borders anymore in the digital world. >> that's right. hackers have torn down all of those traditional boundaries. >> reporter: we came to london to kemeet up with james, the he of research at a security firm. he says it is not just your individual privacy at risk. america and its infrastructure are very vulnerable. >> what we have is a map showing industrial control systems that are exposed to the internet. >> power stations, water systems, telecom. >> all of the aforementioned. >> reporter: in the u.s. alone, 13,000 systems that should have cyber walls around them but, instead, are virtually unprotected. >> if we zoom into chicago here,

we can see a large number of municipal and industrial control systems that are exposed. >> hackers could walk right? >> hackers could walk right in and not require high tech tools. >> reporter: it could be industrial espionage. it could be a foreign country. he uncovered this fake e-mail, purportedly from the embassy of qatar, inviting diplomats to a party. anyone who clinked on the link gave hackers the keys to the kingdom. >> if a foreign government was behind this, the goal is to grab your state's secrets. >> that's it. when you click that button, you allow an attacker into your system. presumably, if it is a foreign power, they're after state secrets. >> reporter: but tracking the hackers has proven elusive. >> we know there are a lot of cyber crime infrastructure in russia, in china, korea, eastern europe, throughout. the truth is, the person controlling those infrastructures could be anywhere. perhaps 50 meters down the road here in london. >> at a cafe.

>> at a cafe sipping a coffee. >> reporter: is it possible to hack the hackers? it turns out yes. by using the very tools they sell online. the hackers selling this kit for $2,000 is now in prison. >> it is simple to set up here. >> reporter: for our purpose, james hacked his own system, but he could turn the technology on the bad guys. >> perhaps on this system, there is some fragment of user information that tells us who they are. >> reporter: but any hacking is illegal, which means it is up to spy agencies and the police to actually hack the hackers. >> they used to lock people up in the tower of london. today, we can't even find the hackers. >> that's true. while there have been requests of criminals by law enforcement, most are anonymous out there in the world. >> so what can you do to protect yourself from international hackers? practice the basics. use long, complicated passwords. never the same twice. keep your computer software up

to date. you may consider turning off location services and the cloud backup. be very suspicious of any e-mails from people you don't know. what i learned is that if the world's spies can do this, hackers can do this, as well. >> would you take this and throw it away for me, please? >> exactly. >> what do you have tomorrow? >> we'll look at ransom ware. there are kits for sale online that allow you to hack into somebody else and take total control of their computer. of all of their stuff or all of your stuff. we're going to go into the dark web. we'll show you the kits and what they're doing to combat it. >> they take your material and say pay me or i won't give it back? >> exactly. i've got your stuff. if you want it, pay me $30,000. do you pay up or not? a lot of people said, i'm not paying up. >> tom, thank you very much. coming up next, the father whose interview was crashed by his kids, well, he comes out of hiding. carson is in the orange room with what he is saying about that adorable and vir

good morning. 9:26 on your wednesday, i'm sam brock. members of the fbi and department of justice have just wrapped up a news conference in d.c. identifying the four suspects tied to a massive hack of yahoo!. two members of the russian government paid criminal hackers to collect information on a wide range of people by gaining unauthorized access to yahoo! accounts in the u.s. and in russia. u.s. government officials were among those targeted. also canadian agents yesterday arrested one of those suspects in toronto. that cyber attack compromised the security of what's believed to be more than 1 billion yahoo! accounts. classes will resume at cal state in hayward after a chaotic scene yesterday that led to a neighborhood on lockdown and a deadly police shooting.

this started when fremont police spotted a car believed to be related to a recent string of robberies. the car eventually crashed and one person took off running. that person is still at large despite a manhunt for hours yesterday. two other suspects in the car were taken into custody. during the melee, officers fired their gun and struck and killed a woman sitting in the car. bob will have a live report from our midday newscast. kari hall tracking changes in your weather forecast right after this.
