6:01 am
permission to hug lani. under fire. a dramatic shootout in georgia caught on camera. police hit with a hail of bullets as they bravely stormed a home ain a hostage standoff. all that plus cradle countdown. the duke and duchess move into their new home as baby sussex gets ready to arrive any day. battle of the sexes. and history in the making. women take on the world famous augusta national golf course in tournament play for the first time ever. dylan is there, today, saturday, april 6, 2019.
6:02 am
dylan is on assignment today along the manicured greens of agis augus augusta. this is the first ever women's competition that is teeing off this morning. dylan, we'll get to you on that in a little bit later in the show. first some breaking news this morning as the weather goes, 20 million people under the threat of severe weather today. dylan, we'll start there. what do we know about that? >> yeah, guys, of course we'll get to more at augusta national in a minute but it severe weather is going to be a big threat, especially as we go into this afternoon, into this evening as well. we have 20 million people under the risk of these severe storms and we are looking at the biggest threats to be large hail. wind gusts up to 60 miles per
6:03 am
hour, and also the chance of some of those spin ups producing some of those tornadoes, so we are going to see these storms continue to move through texas and oklahoma this morning. then they're going to get reenergized as we go into this afternoon and evening moving through the southern plains. again, the biggest threats will be for hail, damaging winds and the isolated chance of a tornado. hail could be up to an inch in diameter or greater and winds could gust to 60 miles per hour. this threat will move to the east as we go into tomorrow, and it expands over a larger area. into southern illinois, southern indiana, we could see the chance of those very gusty winds, that large hail and the risk of the isolated tornado threat as well. this will continue to move east along this cold front. we are going to see those storms fire up this afternoon and into this evening. heavy, heavy rain is a possibility as well. especially as you go into the gulf coast, this area has not seen a lot of rain recently. the ground should be able to absorb the rain into louisiana and mississippi. that should at least help with the flooding threat, again, we
6:04 am
could be seeing significant wind damage out of these storms as we go into this afternoon. >> we'll check back with you from augusta in a minute. let's turn to politics and the former vice president joe biden inching closer to ever to announcing that he is running for president, but this morning biden is facing criticism for making light about allegations that he's made women uncomfortable with his hands on approach to politics. we have the latest now from nbc's andrea mitchell. >> reporter: this morning, joe biden trying to get past the controversy over his behavior but ad-libbing a joke in a friday speech making light of it. >> i just want you to know, i had permission to hug lonnie. >> and again after inviting children to the stage. >> by the way, he gave me permission to touch him. >> it went over well with a friendly audience of union members, mostly men, but later trying to explain. >> it wasn't my intent to make light of anyone's discomfort. i realize my responsibility is to not invade the space of
6:05 am
anyone who is uncomfortable in that regard. and i hope it wasn't taken that way. >> biden has been under fire after numerous women accused him of unwelcome physical contact although not sexual. on wednesday, he responded with a video. >> and i get it. i get it. >> reporter: still some of his accusers say biden still doesn't get it. >> it was for me, like a slap in the face like i say i get it, i get it, i believe in women, i advocate for women, that's not what i saw from this speech. >> reporter: but biden is still not apologizing. >> i'm sorry i didn't understand. i'm not sorry for any of my intentions. i'm not sorry for anything that i have ever done. >> reporter: president trump has been mocking biden's troubles on twitter, posting a doctored video, despite more serious allegations of sexual misconduct against him which he has denied. >> are you the right messenger for that? >> i think i'm a good messenger.
6:06 am
people got a kick out of it. >> reporter: the former vice president does appeal to some of trump's former voters, union men like these electrical workers. >> unions built this middle class. >> reporter: and the president minutes later tweeted from air force one that i employed thousands of electrical workers, they will be voting for me. as the former vice president prepares to announce his run by the end of the month, he's acknowledging he has to change the way he campaigns. for "today" andrea mitchell, nbc washington. president trump is on the west coast after a trip to the border with mexico where he was talking tough about immigration and his signature border wall. kelly o'donnell has more on that. >> reporter: the president is waking up at one of his own hotels in las vegas this morning. he did some fundraising in beverly hills last night, stopped at one of his other golf properties there, but the public part of his trip has been focussed on the border and he
6:07 am
road tested a new bumper sticker type message about illegal immigration. in calexico, california, a section of rebuilt border wall became a backdrop for president trump to claim progress on his promise. >> it's better and much more effective than the previous wall. >> reporter: and by effective, he praised a design intended to keep people out. >> it's pretty sharp up on top, too. if you want to climb that, you deserve whatever you can get. >> reporter: along another stretch, the trump name is literally attached to the barrier. >> we expect to have close to 400 miles done within about two years from now. >> reporter: and at a briefing, the president was given a trophy-style piece of the fencing. there he rolled out a new twist to his rhetoric on undocumented migrants and asylum seekers. >> we have a system that's full. it's just full. if it's full, there's nothing you can do about it.
6:08 am
>> reporter: notably, the president avoided comment about a new push by congressional democrats to get his tax returns. >> nothing whatsoever. i have nothing to say about it. >> reporter: the president's tax attorneys are responding with a new letter friday to the treasury department claiming house democrats have no legitimate committee purpose for requesting the president's tax returns. wednesday, the house tax writing committee made a formal request to the treasury department for six years of mr. trump's personal and business tax returns claiming congress has the legal authority to conduct proper oversight. but friday, president trump's lawyers branded that harassment writing the president is their political opponent, and they want to use the information to damage him politically. presidents and vice presidents are routinely audited and so that committee in congress which is run by democrats says that it
6:09 am
is a part of their job to be able to access any taxpayer, including the president's tax returns as a part of that oversight. part of this will go to steven mnuchin, the treasury secretary, and that will be a real challenge for him caught between what congress wants and the president that he served. >> kelly o'donnell thank you. >> we want to bring in nbc news national political correspondent steve kornacki. good morning. let's talk about joe biden, the former vice president, he got the wheels in motion for the presidential bid announcement. instead he's trying to diffuse the controversy over his conduct as it relates to his campaigning, by trying to make light of it, instead, there are a lot of people who aren't laughing about it again this morning. does this have impact on democratic voters, and the way they view the former vice president? >> the immediate answer is we don't know yet. this is a week that this has been brewing and in public like this. the initial polling we have seen, the bottom is not dropping
6:10 am
out. there's no indication of any change. these things can develop them over time. people process them what they see yesterday. it's an open question. i do think the tone was interesting for two reasons, number one, it seems like there's a calculation he has and maybe the folks around him have, voters, average voters might view these allegations as less serious than other allegations and there's room to joke about it in a way that maybe you haven't seen with others. the other thing is it's a reminder of what joe biden is like when he gets back in campaign mode. this is a guy who can be a little unpredictable. there's a question of how does that cut, does that become a liability or a selling point? >> speaking of campaign mode, we have seen president trump go after obamacare, he's focusing on illegal immigration, talking about the border wall, again. this is the same strategy that was successful in 2016, do you think that will help him again? is that the thought for 2020? >> it's so interesting to watch an there's this tension between
6:11 am
donald trump's political instincts and where the leaders in washington are. immigration is a perfect example. you can see by his actions yesterday, the words yesterday, the threat to shut down the border this week, those are, as you say, his political instincts. his party in washington looks back at last fall and what message did donald trump close the campaign on, immigration, what happened in the midterm elections? republicans say we got wiped out. they look at it very differently than he does. >> one senior adviser said it worked in 2016, we're going to try it all over again in 2020. steve nice to see you. >> thank you. >> i appreciate it. let's turn to a dramatic 15, nearly 16 hours outside of atlanta and a gunman and police trying to save two hostages friday. more than 100 shots were fired during the standoff and there is harrowing body cam footage showing how it all went down. tammy leitner joins us from the hospital where the brave officers are being treated. good morning. >> good morning. two officers were shot during
6:12 am
this standoff and are here recovering after surgery. both are in stable condition but it will be a while before they return to work. >> shots fired, shots fired. >> reporter: these are the tense moments when three georgia officers tried to save an eight months pregnant woman and her 16-year-old son being held hostage. dramatic body cam video capturing the moment veteran s.w.a.t officer taylor webb is shot in the torso and hip his body camera falling to the ground, a hail of gunfire coming from the house as s.w.a.t. officer keagan merit is hit in the hand, before tumbling across the ground to safety. here, a bullet shatters a window where this officer was just standing. more than 100 shot were fired during the nearly 16-hour standoff outside of atlanta.
6:13 am
back up arrives to free officer taylor from the garage where he had taken cover and where police found 39-year-old sandra white's body. but the shooter, 47-year-old anthony bailey keeps police at bay, telling them he has a hostage. >> do not come in here. i got a lot of shots. i got a hostage. i got a hostage. >> reporter: officers negotiated for hours with bailey who refused to surrender, eventually killing high school sophomore, archevian white, and his mom before killing himself. >> she was a single parent. she got on her feet, she raised my grandson, and he wasn't but 16 years old. he had a great future ahead of him. >> reporter: sandra white was due in a month. we're told she already had a name picked out for her unborn child, and that family and
6:14 am
friends were planning a surprise baby shower for her. now, instead, they're planning her funeral. just an awful, tragic story. >> awful, heartbreaking, tammy leitner, thank you. this morning, the baylor lady bears and notre dame fighting irish are getting ready to face off in tomorrow night's national women's basketball championship. it comes after notre dame's coach made an impassioned plea for equality for women before last night's semifinals. nbc's kathy park is here with more. she's got a lot of people, including her opponent talking. >> she had a lot to say. muffet mcgraw is one of the most successful basketball coaches ever. she and her team are in the national championship tomorrow night. this morning she's making headlines for her comments off the court. a trip to the ncaa championship game for the notre dame women's basketball team and their coach. >> final seconds. >> the irish put down the huskies for a second straight
6:15 am
year. >> mcgraw and the fighting irish knocking off the uconn huskies and their male coach, the two coaches barely acknowledging each other after the game. the victory coming after mcgraw made an impassioned plea for gender equality in her sport and in society as a whole. >> i'm getting tired of the novelty of the first female governor of this state, the first female african-american mayor of this city. when is it going to become the norm instead of the exception. >> mcgraw who has won more than 900 times on the basketball court has had an all female staff since 2012. she says she's never going to hire a male assistant coach ever again. >> men run the world and when these girls are coming out, who are they looking up to to tell them that's not the way it has to be. >> the uconn coach has been k t critical of mcgraw in the past, saying earlier this year that muffet has the right to hire anybody she wants. i don't know why she feels the need to make a statement about it.
6:16 am
i've never hired a guy as one of my assistants either. i'm not going to make a statement about it. in 1972, 90% of women's college teams in all sports had female coaches. today, it's down to just over 40%. >> when you look at men's basketball, and 99% of the jobs go to men, why shouldn't 100 or 99% of the jobs in women's basketball go to women. >> muffy mcgraw, her all female staff and the women's basketball team now hoping to take home a national championship tomorrow night. >> and tomorrow night, notre dame will play the baylor lady bears led by their legendary coach, kim molkey. baylor made it to the finals by beating the oregon ducks last night by a score of 72-67. a lot of basketball this weekend. >> the stats that get you talking, 40% of the women's team have a women's coach, versus 90% of men.
6:17 am
speaking of women sports and equality, let's check back with dylan dreyer live getting ready for the ground breaking tournament there today. >> hey, good morning, guys. last night i had the opportunity to have a very intimate conversation with the field of 72 female golfers who will be competing in this tournament. i also got to have a conversation with four world golf hall of famers, that's nancy lopez right there, lorraine ochoa. it's as if we could get into a room with tom brokaw and pick his brain. that was the type of conversation we had. 30 of those women will be competing here at augusta national for the first time ever. it's going to be an epic day, a huge day for women's golf, and the weather actually looks fantastic. we aren't going to see rain, some clouds. that helps to break up the sun a bit. and we're going to see very nice conditions for most of the northeast. temperatures look like they will be in the 60s, close to 70. here, the mid-70s.
6:18 am
the only spot with bad weather is through the southern plains with that risk of severe storms and also showers to push through at least through the afternoon hours. we've got some approaching rain just off the coast. very light showers will continue to make their way through the afternoon and the south bay as well. temperatures will climb into the mid to upper 60s. san jose 70 degrees. morgan hill 65. 66 for walnut creek. oakland 64. expect seasonable highs into the afternoon. and i haven't had a chance to geek out over this course yet, but don't worry. that's coming, guys. >> we know it's coming. dylan, thank you, we'll see you a little later in the show. still coming right here, could the gps in your car go haywire tonight, we'll tell you why some are worried that might happen. but first, these messages.

6:40 am
if you recently had a heart attack, ask your doctor if brilinta is right for you. my heart is worth brilinta. if you can't afford your medication, astrazeneca may be able to help. these dishes will soon be yours to scrub. and they're not even yours. dawn ultra lets you scrub 50% less and get done faster. a drop of dawn and grease is gone. my gums are irritated. i don't have to worry about that, do i?
