identified as a prolific youtuber who would often post bizarre rants online. many of them railing against youtube itself for what she called censorship. it got so bad that her father warned authorities about her hatred of youtube before the shooting took place.

>> the shots rang out just before 1:00 p.m. tuesday. lunchhour for hundreds of workers at youtube headquarters. >> we have a report of subject with a gun. they heard seven to eight shots being fired. this will be from the youtube building. >> police responding to the active shooter in minutes. racing on to the youtube campus along with s.w.a.t. teams and paramedics, as terrified employees streamed out of the complex with their hands raised. three people shot, two women and a man who was the most seriously injured. >> they identified a female in a white shirt. that's all we have done in the center of the court area here. >> overnight police identified the shooter as 39-year-old nasim aghdam, a woman who last lived in the san diego area. police telling nbc news aghdam may have been the owner of a video-sharing site claiming that youtube discriminated and filtderred her content. >> in my view hardly gets

viewsed and my old videos got views. >> aghdam had a large youtube presence with multiple channels from animal rights activism, to bizarre musical parodies. witnesses describing the chaos. >> i came into the court yard and that's when i heard a bunch of yelling. and those a person out there, yelling -- you know, do you want to shoot me? and i froze, and i noticed that laying 25 feet away from this individual was an individual that had shot. >> she shot that person ten, 11 times nonstop. >> authorities believe aghdam took her own life, using a 9-millimeter handgun in the attack. her car was found near the site of the shooting. the same car a woman with the same name a woman was reportedly found sleeping in early tuesday morning by police about a half-hour away from the youtube

campus. a youtube ceo tweeting there are no words to describe how horrible it was to have an active shooter at youtube today. we will come together and heal as a family. >> and gatti, authorities had run into this young woman in her car sleeping. how long ago was that? and how did that all end? >> savannah, that was the day of the shooting. the family in southern california had reported her missing a few days ago. they asked authorities to find her and they found that car with that license plate in a parking lot in mountain view. about 25 miles away from here. they woke her up at about 2:00 a.m., she was sleeping in the car. they spoke to her, and they determined that she was not a threat to herself and not a threat to others. savannah? >> thank you very much. new this morning, we are learning more about the deadly crash of a military helicopter in southern california. nbc's joe fryer has the latest

on the investigation, joe, good morning. >> good morning. it happened around 2:30 tuesday afternoon. just outside of el centro, california. that's a few miles from the u.s./mexico border. the marine corps ch-53e super stallion helicopter, described as the largest, most powerful in the u.s. military was on a routine training mission when it went down with four crew inside. the military says all of those crew members are presumed dead at this time. their names won't be released until their families are notified. the cause of the crash is under investigation this is the deadliest incident for the marines since a plane crash in mississippi last summer. which killed all 16 service members on board. savannah? >> joe, thank you. there are also breaking developments in the russia investigation, new reports that special counsel robert mueller has told the president's lawyers while he is a subject of the investigation, he is not currently a criminal target. so what does that mean? as things move forward?

our team of white house correspondents have it covered, beginning with nbc's halle jackson. good morning. >> good morning, we're also learning this morning that what robert mueller, the special counsel may be ramping up the pressure on the president's legal team to try to get president trump to do an interview according to the "washington post." keep in mind that while the paper points out the president may not be a target of the investigation now, that could change depending on what is said, if the president were to sit down with mueller face to face. the latest russia revelation this morning has the presidents allies vindication. >> still the witch hunt continues, however he is not currently a criminal target. >> others cautioning not so fast. >> he should be worried that he's even a subject. >> all of it prompted by a new report from the "washington post" overnight. that the special counsel is telling the president's lawyers he is not considered a criminal target at this point.

but that he is under investigation as the subject of the russia inquiry. with the paper citing three people familiar with those discussions. the distinction means according to justice department guidelines, while there's reason to investigate the president's conduct, there's currently not enough evidence to link him to any crime. the "post" says special counsel robert mueller reiterated the need to interview president trump. something the president seemed open to recently. >> i would like to do it. i would do it under oath. yeah. absolutely. >> mueller telling the president's lawyers they need the interview to finish a report about potential obstruction of justice. and about donald trump's actions while in office according to the post. a second report later on could outline more broadly, findings on russian interference in the 2016 election. the president's attorney tells nbc news we do not discuss real or alleged conversations between our legal team and the office of special counsel.

the special counsel's office declined to comment. >> halle, on this issue of russia, there's word that the diplomats expelled by the u.s. could actually be replaced. how would that work? >> here's the bottom line on that, savannah. when it comes to the expulsion of those russian diplomats, moscow could request to fill those now-vacant positions. but that doesn't mean the u.s. is automatically going to grant that request. the state department could choose not to do it at all. or it could slow-roll the process, right? which would in effect create this permanent hold. when it comes to policy toward russia overall, there are this morning tough words coming from the current national security adviser, who argues the u.s. has not done enough to punish the kremlin. listen. >> russia brazenly and implausibly denies its actions. and we have failed to impose sufficient costs. the kremlin's confidence is growing, as its agents conduct their sustained campaigns to

undermine our confidence in ourselves and in one another. >> remember, h.r. mcmaster there is on his way out of the white house. his replacement for the job of national security adviser, former diplomat john bolton, takes the job next week. savannah. >> pretty extraordinary to hear him say the administration that he's working for didn't do enough to punish russia. halle, keep us posted. new chaos on wall street over escalating trade tensions between the u.s. and china. the country is slapping new tariffs on each other, amid fears the back and forth could set back the global economy. nbc's kristen welker is at the white house with more on that. good morning. >> fears of a trade war are deepening this morning as the world's two biggest economies, china and the u.s. face off over trade and tariffs. adding to the anxiety, stocks opened sharply lower today. you can see from the numbers, they are still down. but the president defiant on twitter. accusing china of intellectual

property theft and insisting the u.s. is not in a trade war with china. and in a separate tweet, declaring when you're already 500 billion down, you can't lose. overnight, the white house announcing new 25% tariffs on more than 1300 products. everything from dishwashers and motorcycles to printers and snowplows. all made in china. >> we intend to get along with china, but we have to do something very substantial about the trade deficit. >> the trump administration says it's targeting products that benefit from china's industrial plans, while minimizing the impact on the u.s. economy. big retailers from costco and gap to target and walmart. all warned new tariffs on china would hurt american households with higher prices. this latest round hitting $50 billion in imports from america's largest trading partner. after the president signed $60 billion in stinging tariffs on china in march, calling it -- >> it's probably one of the reasons i was elected, maybe one of the main reasons.

>> but china is firing back. >> we don't want a trade war with the united states or with anybody else. but we are not afraid of it. >> raising the price of everything from pork to airplane parts. as for fears of a trade war -- commerce secretary wilbur ross had this to say this morning on cnbc. >> even shooting wars end with negotiations. >> another big headline out of the white house, kristen. the president making a surprise announcement about putting troops along the southern border. what do you know about that? >> well that's absolutely right. the president caught some of his own administration officials off-guard on tuesday. when he announced those plans to send the military to the border. now the white house later making it clear the military does include the national guard. setting the national guard to the border would be unusual, but not unprecedented, savannah. former presidents barack obama and george w. bush both sent the guard to parts of the border. but only temporarily. this heightened rhetoric is all coming amid pressure from some

of the president's core supporters, who say he just hasn't been tough enough on one of his signature issues -- cracking down on undocumented immigrants. savannah? >> kristen welker at the white house, thank you. we have more to get to, including the teacher revolt spreading across the country. schools in oklahoma are closed for a third straight day, amid a statewide teacher walkout there. they're pushing for better pay and more funding for schools. but now oklahoma's governor says they're asking for too much. nbc's gabe gutierrez with the latest on that, good morning. >> hi, savannah. good morning, more teacher protests are getting under way at the state capital. the governor says she hopes the walkout will end by the end of the week but the fight no longer seems to be about just higher teacher pay but rather respect for public education. this morning, the massive oklahoma teacher walkout enters its third day. but as the demand more skull

foo school funding, some lawmakers are not budging. >> i'm not voting for another stinking measure when they're acting the way they're acting. >> we took a big step forward in our state's history to enact the largest pay increase ever for our teachers. >> governor mary fallon says after the $6,000-a-year raise, there's no money left in the state's budget. she thinks these teacher protests across the country are rooted in politics. >> we saw in west virginia, you're seeing it in arizona, you're seeing it in oklahoma, you're seeing is in kentucky. you're seeing it in a lot of states that have governors' races. >> we sat down with oklahoma educators who see it as something else. how many of you pay for supplies for your classrooms? this fourth grade teacher said she made more money in her previous job in retail. >> i feel like they think it's a joke to be a teacher.

our legislators don't quite respect us. >> heather has been in the classroom for 20 years. >> i'm embarrassed to say how many years i've been teaching, i have a daughter in college and i'm still paying off my own student loans. >> 12th grade government teacher drew rhodes says he's been forced to choose between paying bills and health insurance for his wife. >> it's kind of a life and death thing. i hate to say it but as a father of three and married, i can't afford to put my wife under my health insurance. >> how heartbreaking is that? >> um, very. it's we're doing what we're called to do. >> hundreds of thousands of students will be out of the classroom again today. and critics of the walkout say it is preventing these students from taking tests that are required by the end of the year to insure federal funding. but savannah, right now there seems to be no end to this walkout in sight. >> all right.

very smart. vernon jordan, the prom nont washington wall street lawyer grew up in the same neighborhood. >> there was something about him that made us know that he was headed to great places. >> after college, king joined his father at the baptist church as a minister. >> when i was a young reporter in atlanta i came here to hear dr. king preach one sunday morning and as he began to soar, his father leaned forward and said, make it plain, son. make it plain. >> the reverend is king's current successor in the pulpit here. >> his model was to redeem the soul of america. >> when king left atlanta for his own church in alabama, he was the right man in the right place at the right time. rosa parks refused to give up her bus seat so a white man and

a revolution began. king was just 26 years old, but quickly became the dynamic leader of the city bus boycott. >> when the u.s. supreme court ruled the montgomery segregation was illegal king became a national figure before he was 30. he formed a student nonviolent coordinating committee and took his crusade across the south. king and his followers stayed true to nonviolence ern ven as y were arrested, and jailed. and they made sure that news cameras recorded it all. lifting the movement out of the south across the country. king was jailed more than 20 times. and when white southern pastors urged him to slow down, he wrote from his jail cell, we have been waiting for 340 years for our

constitutional and god given rights. this was a crusade larger than one man, but that man gave it a voice that lives on. washington, 1963. >> i have a dream today. >> by midsummer, 1964, a historic step. president johnson signed a new federal law outlawing racial discrimination. >> we shall overcome. >> but the law could not end racial hatred. when king took his movement north, reception in so many cities was vicious and a new generation of young black leaders rejected nonviolence. >> we want black power. we want black power. >> i think my generation having watched your generation move things and change lives, we understand that the issue is so much deeper than just policy, that it's really changing hearts and minds. >> king shared with nbc in

may 1967 his deep disappointment. >> it's much easier to integrate a bus than it is to make genuine integration a reality, but i must confess that that dream that i had that day has many points turned into a nightmare. >> by 1968, king was struggling to keep the movement alive. he went to memphis to support a strike by black sanitation workers. his last speech, the mountain top. >> i may not get there with you. >> the next day, king was murdered by a white ex- con and across the country, black neighborhoods exploded in rage. but in atlanta, his funeral was a solemn bittersweet farewell to a man who got to the mountain top and became a marter, an icon, the immortal american.

>> tom, it's just so beautiful to reflect on dr. king's life, but you say that his message that he had back then, you feel is more relevant even today. >> reporter: i think in many ways he's more powerful today as a symbol of what he was doing then and how much work we still have to do. i was a young reporter in 1962. that's when i started my career. he was a defining figure then, this young preacher from atlanta and then from alabama and then when he was killed i really didn't know what the country was going to come to at that point. but the powerful legacy of dr. king is still with us today. i was at an integrated session last night in jackson, mississippi, where they have dedicated a wonderful new civil rights museum. 50 years ago i would not have thought that would be possible in mississippi and that's a big part of the king legacy. >> such an important day to remember, reflect on life, not just the terrible passing that happened 50 years ago.

chapo lived, despite the fact he was a billionaire. he lived in a bunch of scummy houses, right? >> i was surprised with the way he lived. he afforded himself no luxury. plastic tables and chairs in every safe house that was designed the same way. >> after all that, he's finally captured and in a mexican prison, and less than two years later, he escapes again. quickly, i mean, what did you think when you heard that? he's out. he's on the loose again. >> it was pretty predictable. this tunnel that went underneath the prison was the same type of tunnels that went under the safe houses, the same tunnels that were at the u.s./mexico baorder. >> they should have known? >> it was coming. >> drew hogan, thank you for sharing your story with us. this is the tip of the iceberg. the book is "hunting el chapo." it's out now.

>> five. >> reporter: a third of his lung had to be removed. one bullet coming dangerously close to his liver. three more tearing through his legs. do you feel lucky to be alive? >> uh-huh. >> reporter: his classmates, lucky too. some probably alive today because of anthony's bravery. turning himself into a human shield and despite his wounds, he barricaded the door shut as the gunman continued his deadly rampage. >> i think i was going to die. >> he's a hero in my book. >> reporter: the family lawyer. >> he's the real deal. >> reporter: anthony's bravery is being recognized around the world. boxes and boxes of letters from strangers sharing love and support. some of the most moving coming from the family's home country, venezuela. he's a fighter, he's a winner, he's a champion. he hasn't read it yet, she says. >> he is a hero. >> reporter: anthony's close

friend was in lockdown that day. >> it shouldn't have happened on february 14th. it shouldn't have happened ever. not in my school or in any other school. >> reporter: the family attorney has already filed a notice of intent to sue. the first step in the process. they believe systems to protect students at marjory stoneman douglas high school failed. people are very disappointed. >> disappointed puts it mildly. this is the poster child of everything going wrong. >> reporter: to many anthony is a superhero. some of his friends giving him a nickname. the real iron man. actor clark greg who plays in the marvel movies even sending this message. >> you're a hero. we're thinking about you. we hope you get better. come visit us. >> reporter: now the family is looking forward. the doctors tell you he'll be back playing soccer? >> that's the plan. >> reporter: a lot of people are very thankful for what you did.

have you even thought about that? you don't know you're a hero? well, you are. because of the slow and arduous recovery that anthony will have to endure, his family lived in an apartment up several floors and the doctor said that would really be too much for anthony to have to climb the stairs. they've had to move to a new house on the ground level. but guys, i don't think the real iron man is going to have much of a problem here as he continues forward. >> we wish him the best in his recovery. thank you very much. and just ahead on a wednesday morning, we have mindy kaling. we're going to talk about her new show, her movies, and being a new mom. but first, this is "today" on but first, this is "today" on nbc.

i'm april kennedy and i'm an arborist with pg&e in the sierras. but first, this is "today" on nbc. since the onset of the drought, more than 129 million trees have died in california. pg&e prunes and removes over a million trees every year to ensure that hazardous trees can't impact power lines. and since the onset of the drought we've doubled our efforts. i grew up in the forests out in this area and honestly it's heartbreaking to see all these trees dying. what guides me is ensuring that the public is going to be safer and that these forests can be sustained and enjoyed by the community in the future. how excited am i? we are back with the multi-talented mindy kaling. she's an actress, writering with producer and a new mom who somehow found a little extra time to co-create and star in

nbc's sitcom called "champions." mindy plays a single mom who takes her teenage son to live with the father he's never met. let's just say, he has a few concerns. >> hello? >> hey. it's the man responsible for your teenage sexual awakening. >> ryan phillippe? how'd you get my number? >> no. it's vince. but we got a problem. your son's a slob and he's trying to convince me that you were cool with that. >> that's totally true. >> what? you tolerated that? >> i tried disciplining him. but it was too hard. i spend all day putting catheters in old people and didn't want to come out and get after him for he left the gas on and the cat passed out. >> there's a lot going on. >> this though is funny. we'll get to it. but this is the first time i've seen you since the birth of your little girl. how is all of that? >> she's so great. she's so great.

i just love being a mom. you know how it feels. it's just incredible. >> is it weird? like, has she started doing anything? for awhile, you just feed, change, sleep, change the diaper. that's it. >> zero feedback except for crying for the longest time. and then you start wondering, like, does she care about me, know about me? just i'm a food source for her? and she started laughing recently. she's incredibly easy to make laugh. much different -- it's very nice, actually. because versus my real job where it's so -- it takes so much effort to make these shows and everything. and i just sing music to her and she's cracking up. it's the best. >> and how have you -- have you had, like, realigned your life? when a child comes in -- at first i was like, i'm going to have my life exactly as it was and the baby. but you have to make changes to make it work. right? >> absolutely. it's just that she bleeds over into all parts of my life. sometimes i find myself -- i don't know if you do this. staring at your phone at a photo of her in a meeting.

i'm just like, looking lovingly at a photo. everyone is like, what are you doing. i'm like -- i don't know. it's a great feeling. >> let's talk about your show "champions." very funny. the concept is great. this young actor who you found to play your son, this kid is unbelievable. i can't believe we haven't seen him before. tell us about the show. >> so j.j. is the -- he plays my 15-year-old son who is -- he is incredibly funny. he's gay and out and proud of himself. he's just this incredible -- we wrote this for a half indian young gay man. we were like we're never going to cast this. but then we found this kid. he has so much heart. >> and being gay is just, like, 10% of the character that you see. like, he has his moment and then moves on. >> we weren't interested in doing a show about a young gay man who felt victimized by his circumstance. we wanted to just have it be

part of his life. we thought that was modern and fun. those stories have been told already. >> well, you've got so much going on. "a wrinkle in time." every time i see you and the others, i want to know what it's like. tell me what it's like when you're hanging out and talking. what's going on in that group? >> they're amazing. oprah is amazing. reese is wonderful too. but i feel that way about you and kathie lee. i'm like, i want to be part of your trio. everyone does. i just want to kick back and drink wine with you on memorial day or something. >> are you all, like, laughing? is it deep talk? >> the thing with oprah, it always goes so deep because you're with oprah. you're not just going to chitter chat about little things. you want her life advice. >> you've got "oceans eight" coming up. you're very busy. i want to read one thing your costar said. when i met mindy kaling she lived in a small apartment on fairfax avenue.

this is what is in front of the building today. congrats, mindy. and future can grats to those you see and inspire to do great things. >> that actually makes me want to tear up. yeah. that's a really -- >> you remember when you started. >> yeah. that's really moving. no one, when i was -- when i was coming up, there was no one that looked like me on tv and film. that's a nice thing he remembered that. i'm legit crying. hoda, this happened so quickly. how did that happen? i was so moved by that. no, it's true. if you dream big, you can get whatever you want. >> and i bet you're going to teach your little girl that exact same thing. >> now you're trying to make me cry even more. >> no. how about if we end with a present? come here. we're going to give you this for your little girl. >> are you kidding? >> it's got a few things in it. little baby things and a book and a -- you know, all the stuff. >> thank you. that's so nice. >> by the way, i love you more

out of this moment. you're the best. >> thank you. >> we are going to be back with more. "champions" airs tomorrow night on nbc. we're cooking next after this. by the way, this is "today" on nbc.

we're back with "today food." happy to have giada de laurentiis. she brought her daughter, jade, here, and the easiest short ribs recipe you're ever going to make. giada is here. good to have you here. jade, good to have you here, too. how was italy? >> really fun. >> do you speak italian? >> you know how i force her to have italian classes. and i don't want to. she hates it. >> we have a good friend in

common, that's my son, 9-year-old jackson. before we moved to new york, jade and my son, jackson, were in a dancing troupe together called funky divas and dudes. and there's my jackson and there's jade. yes. we have a little history back in california together. jade, i'm sure your dancing days are fine. do you like to cook like your mom, jade? >> yeah. >> is that something you want to do, too? >> huh-uh. >> it's fine. >> what's the difference between a short rib and regular ribs? >> the short rib is a different part of the cow. it's a smaller piece of it. there's a lot of nice fat that we love so much. instead of the long ribs, there's meet on these. >> dredge this in flour. >> these are seasoned. you see how much meat there is on that? >> they're beautiful. >> we dredge them in flour.

that's to create a nice crust around them and seal them. >> what's waiting for them here? >> hot oil. >> the pan is not hot enough. but you would hear a nice sear. you sear them for 12 minutes on each side. you take them out and put them on a plate. >> did you have jade making her own cereal at 6 months old? she has to be familiar in the kitchen? >> how often do you make your own breakfast? >> i don't know. >> a lot, probably. >> never. this is what happens when you have a cook as a parent. they do all of the cooking. >> does your mom say spaghetti? >> that i have trained her to do. >> are you searing this? >> yes. they end up looking like this. i'm sure siri makes you these. >> she loves short ribs, yeah. >> we're going to finish these in the oven. but you can make them in the slow cooker. >> sear it off and bake it off. >> this meat, you have to let it cook low and slow. >> is that polenta? >> yeah.

>> this could be my last supper. >> we just had it for breakfast. we brown some carrots and onions. you're a good cook, aren't you? >> i like to barbecue and make the cocktails. i rely on my wife but that's for a another show. what do you have in here? >> carrots and fennel. >> celery. >> and what else? >> onion. >> i notice the wine here. are you using this? >> yes. the whole bottle goes in here. use any dry red wine. >> that's not cheap. >> no. but -- >> this is one of the better meals we ever had. >> ever. >> quite good for breakfast, i must say. nice and hearty on a cool day. >> it's just as good as the short rib, the polenta. >> you don't need a knife for the meat. >> you pour the bottle of wine in your veggies and the tomato paste goes down, also. >> you can do the tomato paste

first or after. you want it to cook down a little bit. you want it to simmer for about five minutes. jade likes to play, which is what kids like to do. after it simmers down, becareful because it will nail your sweatshirt. you add the broth. you're creating a little bed, like a warm bath for the ribs. you take the ribs, i'm going to try to get this over this. jade and i do this dance in the kitchen all the time. we put the ribs back in here, nestle in here and throw them in the obvious. >> 2 1/2 hours. >> that's how it gets the fall off the bone deliciousness. >> yeah. and you have to wait for the full time. >> do you like cooking in italy better than california? >> i like cooking anywhere. >> the pictures of you and jade walking down the streets in italy are magnificent. >> we have a different perspective on food. we think about every meal. and i think here, people are like, i'm hungry, what am i

eating? we really think long and hard about breakfast, lunch and dinner. where it's going to happen, where it's going to happen, and who it's going to happen with. >> the cookbook is beautiful. once in is out of the oven, 2 1/2 hours. >> what i do is i -- >> you have a salad, too? >> you see a lot of my pastas, everything has arugula and fennel. arugula and a little fennel. throw that in there. >> do you have your own brand of olive oil? >> i don't. >> why? >> i don't. >> i would buy your olive oil knowing you know a good olive oil. >> i don't have my own wine or olive oil. >> jade, are you on spring break right now? >> yes. >> are you going to eat mcdonald's for lunch today. >> actually, she asked me to go to -- what is it? >> five guys. >> that's how it happens. >> the burgers. you take it and you just kind of
