we'll ask the deputy national security adviser what the u.s. is prepared to do if russia doesn't hold up their end of the bargain. >> i don't think given past performance we can count on that and we have to be prepared to potentially respond to what continue to be efforts of interference by the russians in eastern and southern ukraine. >> swept away, 13 sherpas have lost their lives in a deadly avalanche today on mount everest, it's been called the world's worst disaster ever on the highest peak. families of passengers on those who died on the cap sized ferry are questioning why did it take so long to evacuate the sinking ship. an arrest warrant wassi issued r the captain, they believe he was one of the first to flee. great expectations it's the title bill and hillary clinton

[ applause ] >> good day, i'm andrea mitchell in washington. in eastern ukraine pro-russian protesters are refusing to disarm and won't leave government buildings they occupied. despite agreement between russia and kiev and there is that disturbing issue of anti-semitic pamphlets being passed out in

donetsk. jim, you've been out and about, any sign that those militias and russian groups, are giving up those buildings? >> reporter: hi, andrea, no one is enforcing this and we're see no sign at all of a retreat. the pro russian separatists in eastern ukraine, they say in facts that they want to see what they call the illegal government in kiev pull out of its buildings as well. andrea? >> and what about the issue of anti-s anti-s anti-semitism, you've talked to the chief rabbi there. what precipitated this?

>> reporter: we spoke to very troubled members of the jewish community today and they told us first of all what happened and a group about 100 of them are coming outside of the synagogue after passover prayers two nights ago when they noticed three men masked with back packs and handing out leaflets and after handing them out and on the door of the synagogue, the chief rabbi told me when he read the leaflet it was sheer shock. he thought the letter looked official at first glance but couldn't believe it was real. leaflet called on jews to register or risk losing citizenship. he said to test the lease authenticity they sent a jewish family to the address, which is the headquarters and pro-russian as if to register themselves and basically they knew nothing about the registration and wanted nothing to do with it. the jewish community today who

by the way have never witnessed any anti-sem itic behavior, they see it as a hoax, not against the jews per se. in other words, a pretty crazy attempt to either discredit the pro-russian separatists or the government in kiev with, again the jews caught in the middle. i've got to say that the 15,000 strong jewish community here is very angry about this and they are also very worried as well. back to you. >> jim maceda, thank you very much. ben rhodes is the national security adviser to president obama and joins me from the white house. what does the white house know? what are we hearing from the ground about the issue of anti-semitism? >> we're very concerned about the incidents of anti-semitism, we through the embassy, did confirm that these flyers are

being distributed in donetsk. we have left behind the anti-semitism, where it should stay in history. we issued a strong statement yesterday this is grotesque and disgusting and has no place in today's world. we want russia and other countries to condemn this type of anti-semitism. thus far all we've seen is the distribution of these flyers as your correspondent found we haven't been able to assign who was responsible for distributing them. we'll stay on top of them as we do with anti-semitism anywhere in the world. >> we know that the president has authority for individual sanctions for sanctions against the cronies and banks but the larger sanctions, the sanctions against the mining industry and financial industry, that would require getting germany and france and u.k. and others on

board. we're seeing reports of a great deal of resistance. the president has been working the phones with angela merkel and president hollande and others with david cameron. but the financial times only yesterday reported that bp told ministers in fparliament that there will be repercussions if their deals are jeopardized in russia. there's a lot of corporate pressure being brought to bear on these industries and politicians within these governments. >> well, andrea, i would say two things. first of all, as you mentioned, we have the ability to sanction cronies, individuals who have significant influence in the russian economy and leadership. not just them but the enties they control. those are the type of sanctions we prepared and we're willing to move to additional sanctions if the deal in geneva haven't followed through and we see the type of destabilizing activity we've seen in ukraine. at the same time, the bigger

sanctions that could hit industries like finance, energy, the arms industry, mining, we have been preparing to be able to use those as well if we will see further dangerous escalation, for instance, russian troops moving in ukraine. it's going to be necessary for us to coordinate that with europeans both because it will have a greater impact on russia when we move to the sanctions and we often do this together. we're assuming the risk together and imposing the cost together. that's how you mitigate against some of the concerns that you raised that one nation might have to bear the brunt of this. we're going to do this together as an international community if it becomes necessary. that's what we've been talking about. president obama talked to prime minister cameron and angela merkel and president hollande and g-7 issued a statement on this when the president with them in brus sels, if we see further dangerous escalation, russian troops moving in ukraine, we feel we have to do that together as an

international community. >> what would trigger the president deciding on additional sanctions, those he can control? how many days will you let the russian militias occupy the buildings and not disarm and violate the geneva agreement? >> first of all, the russian government has a responsibility to use the influence it has on those protesters to encourage and impress them to vacant the buildings and abide by the agreement we reached in geneva. if we don't see those actions as we get into next week, we're going to be prepared to move towards additional cost potentially moving to sanctions. again, the way i would characterize the time line, we're looking at the matter of days. we're not going to go a number of weeks waiting to see if the groups disarm and leave those buildings. the agreement makes clear this has to be done urgency. while we haven't seen progress yet, we would like to see russia encouraging those protesters to lay down arms and leave those

buildings. >> so days not weeks. thank you very much for the bottom line from the white house. i'm joined by jeffrey goldberg, jeffrey has just returned from eastern ukraine and moldova. let's talk about what putin is up to and you've got ground truth from quha you see. >> one ground truth in moldova that could be the next victim, is that no one i met, whether they are pro-russia or anti--russia no one believes it is finished and putin is going to keep move are forward bringing more and more territory into his orbit, either threw direct occupation or proxies or building occupations or however. so he might order the removal of these pro testers from these buildings if they listen to them. they might be more radical than

the radical. this is like water making crevices and finding whatever path it can find. you're going to see manifestations of this expansionism in a million different places and million different ways i think. >> is putin going to be at all influenced by what happened in geneva? >> you know, i think the fair money is on no, you know. this is not -- this is not iran. it is not a susceptible to sanctions and international pressure and the sanctions aren't nearly as tough as the ones on iran in any case. so the answer is i think no, he's got a long-term view of the way russia should play -- the role russia should play in its region and he's going to keep moving. i don't think the sanctions are very frightening to him. there's a lot of companies in the west that don't want these sanctions. >> they almost have a veto power over what germany and the u.k.

are going to agree to? >> if you were putin you wouldn't be that frightened of this level of sanctions. >> take a look at the economist cover, which illustrates the putin world view. we can put it up on the screen, "the economist" has illustrated the expansionism, look at the size of russia. >> in moldova, stuck between ukraine and romania, it was a soviet republic, they are sitting there -- they have one breakaway republic controlled by moscow inside their territory and they are looking at the west and brussels and berlin and saying we're next on the menu unless you step up. there's an assumption there's a train that keeps rolling forward. >> we're traveling through ukraine. you were in odessa and other parts and the whole history of ant anti-semitism is a highly charged issue because of the

world war ii history -- >> and before. i'm a silver lining kind of guy, actually not really, but there is a silver lining here, which is that both sides know that the charge of anti-semitism is so toxic, they are trying to manipulate that charge against each other. they know that to label -- pro-russian side, that's dispositive, a terrible thing to be called and vice-versa, they understand the negative power of that. the jewish communities are protected by the fact that the whole world looks at that charge and says that is completely unacceptable and off the table. >> coming out of passover services, 15,000 jews in doneet sk were frightened. >> it recalls a tragic and horrible history and people are trying to revive that for political gain. it's a terrible situation to be

in if you have to live there. >> jeffrey goldberg, welcome home and thank you so much. there is developing news on many fronts surrounding the search for survivors with the overturned ferry off the coast of south korea as diving teams work through the night in a desperate attempt to find survivors, we have new details on charges filed and another tragedy -- cnbc's center of the rescue operation. >> grief has turned to anger own day three of the search for survivors. families are fur yus with the captain who investigators say was the first to flee the sinking ship. the authorities say he wasn't even at the helm during the incident and a junior officer with only a year's experience was steering the vessel. prosecutors are seeking a warrant for his arrest. the ship is nearly submerged but they are pumping in oxygen and divers are fighting strong

current and poor visibility as they attempt to reach possible survivors, the relatives are crowded in the nearby gym where they are getting support from volunteers and most of the passengers were high school students on a field trip. what we learned today is that the vice principal traveling with them and survived the tragedy himself, hanged himself in a wooded area outside the gym because he was overwhelmed with grief. four cranes have arrived on the scene, more are on the way, ready to raise the ship. authorities have not yet said when they plan to do that because of the potential signal that it could send to the families that this operation moved from a rescue to a recovery. back to you. >> and na quick update, an arret warrant has been officially filed by south korean authorities. we'll bring you any developments on this story as we receive them throughout the hour. 13 sherpas have died in an

avalanche on mount everest, it is being called the worst accident ever. they were fixing ropes below camp two when the avalanche hit. nbc news crews were on site preparing for production for the discovery channel. all nbc news employees are safe. members of that production team spoke to the "today" show this morning from the base camp. >> our plan to was to leave last night along with the sherpas and we delayed for 24 hours so we're still down here safe. but as you know, 13 sherpas died in the ice fall last night. when radio reports started coming off the mountain that people were stuck in the avalanche, everybody came out and started to get organized for the rescue. ameriprise asked people a simple question: can you keep your lifestyle in retirement? i don't want to think about the alternative. i don't even know how to answer that. i mean, no one knows how long their money is going to last. i try not to worry, but you worry. what happens when your paychecks stop? because everyone has retirement questions.

if pundits want to talk about repealing a law that is working, that's their business. democrats should not be defensive but need to move on and focus on things that are important to the american people right now. >> president obama on the politics of health care during an uncommon appearance in the white house briefing room. will senate democrats up for re-election this fall takes his advice? joining us now, david gregory, moderator of "meet the press." david, the midterm elections, obama care, it's still toxic for democrats in danger red states. >> who were being cast as deciding vote on obama care, that's tough. the president is trying to lead by example, he may have been talking to the press corps or country, he's talking to democrats, saying go out and fight on this. we've got the numbers up which people in the white house describe as as miracle. to a level where you can say see republicans want to take it away from you. there's millions of you that now

have it. if they can create that kind of binary choice, even some conservatives i've talked to this week have more questions about whether republicans will do as well as tough states for the senate than they thought before, obama care may be neutralized some. >> can't the counter argument be we don't know how many enrolled that have paid or will pay but they did report a better mix yesterday of young people. we don't know what the final cost will be? >> we don't know. uncertainty is the friend of the republicans, you don't know the ultimate impact. a talked to a business leader who said we'll look at whether we should put people in the exchanges and not offer health care anymore. there could be huge changes ultimately on the health care industry but for the political cal can you lus, uncertainty is

the friend of the republicans. >> 49% still thought it was a bad idea. >> and some democrats if you talk to folks on the hill, raising the minimum wage, raising pay equity for the genders. those are wedge issues that are good for them, economic middle class issues and opposed to health care, the white house is trying to neutralize this as an issue, don't back down and run away from the affordable care act. they've got terrible news on their side to make that case. >> the president was meeting with the insurance industry, they have to make sure the insurance industry is brought in. they spent so much time focusing on the insurance industry piece, they need to pay more attention to the website. is the insurance industry on board? >> we'll look at their profits. i think it was united health care that reported their profits from the first quarter, you have to continue to look at that as a

bellweather, does the government have to subsidize part of that? that's part of the policy mix ultimately as to whether premiums go up and health care prices go up. there's an interesting aspect to this. we as consumers as people get health care where they work, have a history of not paying attention to how much we're paying because we don't pay for it. and we're employees of a company where we pay a higher deductibles and a lot of companies are moving towards that and that's probably a good thing for the health care system. >> in fact, the health care system, the rising cost of health care as part of entitlements in fact, is one of the big issues that is depressing the saving rate in this country and hurting the economy. you talk to business leaders all the time. how concerned do you think business leaders are about the economic trends in this country? >> they are concerned -- it's interesting, what they say is

the regulatory environment is such that i was just reading the jp morgan chase, obviously a big target in this. they are talking about the amount of time and energy to comply with new federal regulations, they'll make the argument that the economy is in a good place but it could be doing better if not for the uncertainty surrounding new regulations and what that means and also health care. >> and "meet the press" on easter sunday as well, we should talk about just the religious holiday this weekend, who do you have? >> we'll be talking about health care and the president's kind of political standing and also the crisis in ukraine, the ukrainian prime minister will join me exclusive and we'll also hear from senators corker and murphy on u.s. strategy here, is this something the president has been able to defuse or is there more ahead? >> a lot ahead on "meet the press." thank you so much, david. >> thank you.

>> reporter: sam drunino is a graduate of columbine and he was there on april 20th, 1999, 15 years ago. >> it's kind of like a time period, january goes by and february goes by and i get the feeling around march. >> then you fall off a cliff. >> pretty much. it's more like hitting a brick wall emotionally. and you can see it coming from a mile away. and it's that anticipation of april is that wall coming. >> no one can understand sam's inner struggle better than his columbine classmates and principal, frank deankle is. >> frank is still processing what happened and still having difficulties. is it common? are you finding the same thing? >> i went to college right afterwards and they did a fire drill and it's a fire drill but

all of a sudden i froze, tears started streaming down my face. >> do you have to have been physically wounded to still be traumatized 15 years later. >> absolutely not. everybody who was part of columbine high school had experienced grief. >> this past year i'm getting phone calls from graduates in '99 and 2000 saying can you talk to my son or daughter. they are struggling now. >> and joining me now is nbc's lester holt. that is so moving and to see them as adults, i still think of them as children. >> we all remember those pictures of them flooding out of the school and the s.w.a.t. teams, which interestingly you set up there what sam was going through, obviously you heard from other columbine survivors going through the same thing. his thought was, i bet that the students at other school shooting sites are going through

the same thing. with dateline's help, sam goes on a journey, goes to virginia tech, he goes to minnesota where another school shooting had happened. he visits these places, jonesboro arkansas and meets with other survivors and they talk out their feelings and many of the shootings happened in late march, early april around the same time. they confront the same sense of dread when spring comes around. he's hoping to finds a way to process and heal. >> we just had the virginia tech anniversa anniversary, it's the same time of year and horrible franklin regional high school incident, the stabbing incident, but -- >> and i was -- when that happened i was tempted to pick up the phone and call sam but i remember that he told me, whatever happens is everything time something happens he gets the text, are you okay? sometimes he hasn't even heard about the story. i didn't want to be that person.

later we heard from him and he was quite traumatized to hear it once again, students put in danger by someone running amuck with a weapon. >> what is the solution if there is one here? it is therapy, counseling, groups of people who have survived similar tragedy? >> it's counseling. sam didn't really avail himself to counseling right away. i think there's a tendency and what i learned from doing the story and we report the deaths and injuries, those are easy to quantify, we know how many people were shot and how many were hurt, we kind of lose sight of the other people in these horrific situations and sam's case, he's huddled in a room off the cafeteria with 17 other students and cafeteria worker. there was no lock on the door. the door handle begins to move and here's the shooters, you'll hear the rest of the story but

sam wasn't included among the wounded for the purposes of how we look at these things. we have to remember the trauma runs deep and runs for a long, long time. >> and it's the kind of thing that as you point out every season -- every time there's an incident is recurring so it's not something that you can get over, not without a whole lot of help along the way. >> it really is. they all have stories that they tell and you sit there and listen to them trans fixed that somebody went through this. you quickly understand well, of course you need help, of course you don't shrug that off after a week or two. >> lester holt, i'm so glad you're doing this. i know it's a difficult challenging assignment, thank you, we look forward to seeing it. >> thanks for having me on. >> "the road home" airs this sunday at 8:00 p.m. on nbc. getting down to the business of immigration reform, the impact from silicon valley to wall street with steve case.

regulations? >> a couple of years ago the biggest one was access to capital. congress did come together and pass the jobs act jump starting two years ago and will legalize things like crowd funding and create an on-ramp for ipo. and in part because of of the jobs act, that's important. the other big one that needs attention now in washington, hopefully this summer is immigration reform. if we remain the most innovative nation in the world we need to win a global battle for talent and need to update our immigration policies and the senate did its part last year passing immigration reform and now the focus is on the house and hopefully we'll see real momentum this summer. >> in fact, you point out on immigration reform, we reached the cap of 65,000 entries in a week and now it's shut down. these are visas for high tech

people and graduate students and people with real expertise, why would we shut our doors to these very people. >> everybody knows it's crazy and there is bipartisan support and deal with startup to help the startup community, it gets more complicated when you're dealing with the issues around border security and what do you do with the 11 million and path to citizenship. that's where it gets more complicated but the senate did something last summer, the house leadership has said they want to do something different, more of a step by step approach but it's time to take first step. i'm confident they will this summer. there was some reason they wanted to wait until the summertime frame. if we don't pass immigration reform in the next three months, i don't think we'll pass it in the next three years, we run the risk of losing the edge. it's not just a problem we need to solve, it's an opportunity we need to seize to position the country for growth and innovation going forward. >> a real brain drain from our graduate schools. >> no question. >> training these young

dealing with immigration and dealing with it this summer. >> let me give you a minute to tell our viewers what the steve and jean case foundation does. you do so many good things. >> we've done a number of things to try to leverage technology and entrepreneurship and collaboration put together, public/private partnerships and did something around the digital divide called power up and launched the startup america partnership and billion plus change around pro bono efforts focusing on impact investing and trying to get people to think about a new class of investing, not just for profit or not for profit but profit with a purpose. all kinds of interesting things but it's always partnership really believe in order to have impact, there's an african pro verb, you have to good quickly, you can go alone, if you want to go far, you must go together. that's the perspective that's informed us at the case
