about it and at what cost? >> do you accept the premise or not? >> i think there are a lot of things going on today that perhaps contribute to it. >> we'll discuss. deadly standoff, another violent day in eastern ukraine as the government continues to try to force out pro-russian separatists from the buildings they've occupied. what can be done to keep the country from tearing in two? we'll ask senator john mccain. rallying cry, reports that more girls were kidnapped overnight in nigeria in addition to 300 teenagers still missing. a global campaign increasing the pressure on nigeria's president yet to mobilize a real operation. >> i give kudos to the people that push it on social media, people are taking the next step forward to go out and protest and raise voices and sign petitions and push for accountability. >> team of rivals, why senators clair e mccaskill and gillibran

are joining together. hillary clinton has a new answer to the 2016 question. >> obviously i'm thinking about that right now. >> >>. [ applause ] good day, the white house is highlighting the dangers of climate change in a major new report today that says the average temperature in the united states has gone up at least 1.3 degrees. that's a big deal since record keeping began in 19 -- 1895. more than 80% of that temperature rise has happened just since 1980.

the report says climate change is real and it is already happening. the north and southeast could get more coastal flooding and severe hurricanes and plains and midwest drier winters and more wildfires. on the west coast, drought is straining water use and creating tensions over water rights. what steps should we be taking? i'm joined by the nation's administrator for the environmental protection agency, jena mccarthy. very good to have you with us. first of all, the key points of this report as far as you're concerned and science is concerned, they are not disputable, correct? >> that's correct. this is clear indication that we're already today facing impact of climate, not just about fut our projections anymore. >> what about those who say, senator thune was saying what point is it to do something here because it's a global problem, china is not going to backtrack on their pollution, why take steps that hurt american jobs

and the american economy when it's not going to improve our own air and our own -- the temperatures globally? >> this assessment shows us that that impacts are already being felt in the u.s. and action does need to be taken. the president's climate action plan which is really a priority for him, not just as president but as a father of two lovely children, is to really take action on climate now, take action to ensure our communities are resilient and we help to support that. and keep them safe. but also to have a larger voice in the national agenda, a global action is necessary, but the u.s. can and should step up. there's actions we can take that are very consistent with keeping us competitive in a global marketplace. >> let's imagine for a moment that there's a baby being born right now. there are babies being born all

over this country. what future does this child face if nothing is done? what is the water level? what is going to happen to our coasts? what will the temperature changes be? >> we know from this assessment that there's impacts in every region. we know the dangers of climate change. we see rising sea levels and rising temperatures as going to result in more ozone. that means more asthma attacks for our kids moving forward. the bright spot here is we know that states and local communities across the u.s. have been taking action to reduce carbon pollution. if you take a look at the plan that the president put out, he basically said there are a number of actions that we can take today that will protect this next generation, that will reduce carbon pollution and do it in a way that's consistent with economic growth and with u.s. competitiveness. take a look at what he did in the first term. we work with the auto manufacturers and we took a look

at how we can ride for fuel efficient vehicles and reduce carbon pollution in half and provide an opportunity for the auto manufacturers to rebuild themselves. we can do this. this is not about frightening people. it's about facing realities that we face today and taking action to protect our kids in the future. >> given the budget constraints, can we deal with the infrastructure we're going to need? we saw what happened after super storm sandy. >> one of things we're taking a look at is working with communities on these resiliency efforts. we're making sure we're not rebuilding in a way that makes that same infrastructure susceptible to the next violent storm they are going to face. we're learning. as long as we keep learning and taking action, we can take the actions that are necessary to address this challenge. the biggest danger we face is inaction. we see the impacts now and know

what those costs are. we have to prevent the next generation from facing more and bigger problems if we can address these issues now in an economically sound practical common sense way. that's what the president climate action calls for and what the president knows is our moral obligation to do. >> thank you very much for starting us off here today. >> great to be here, thanks. >> now to the deadly violence in ukraine. at least 34 pro-russian separatists and for government troops killed in confrontations overnight. government forces are stepping up the military campaign to combat the insurgents and russian foreign ministry has been vocal in the last 24 hours providing its own spin on twitter with tweet s like this one, use of army against civilians by kiev must stop. that is a very one-sided view indeed. joining me now from the latest from donetsk is keir simmons.

there's been a lot of violence and death on both sides. where does this go next? >> reporter: yeah, that's right. by the way that view repeated by the foreign minister -- russia's foreign minister lavrov calling on kiev to withdraw from the operation that they have under way here in this eastern region. andr andrea, as ever as things with the modern world, everybody is involved with trying to engage with the media. even the ma list sha down the street in donetsk, they have their own website and reporting their own casualties, eight have died and 16 with gunshot wounds today where the most intense fighting seems to be going on. we're understanding between 800 pro-russian militia in that town holding that town while ukrainian military surround it and continues to battle. that is where yesterday you saw the helicopter shot down and

that of course of course raises concerns about the kinds of weaponry that these militia have if they are able to shoot down helicopters because remember that is the third such attack in just a week. so the clashes continue in different places and sometimes it is sporadic and sometimes it is chaotic and not entirely clear. for example, today, various journalists both russian and western have reported around 50 militants went to a cadet school here in donetsk and tried to block the road. there was some reports that they were armed even with rpgs, rocket propelled grenades and they left again. by the time we got there to check it out, there was nothing but a separatist flag flying outside, andrea. >> keir simmons in donetsk, thank you very much. now to a growing outrage that is building worldwide, three weeks

after hundreds of school girls were kidnapped in nigeria, we're learning more about the horrific ideal from one 16-year-old who managed to escape off a pickup truck. she described how the students first thought the men were there to save them after hearing gunfire from a nearby town. from that report they said don't worry, we're soldiers. the 16-year-old girl recalls them saying nothing is going to happen to you. then she told the associated press, started shouting god is great then we knew. demonstrations are being held around the globe demanding these nigerian girls be released. in d.c. a rally was reorganized by jennifer soeb ba. what is your next step, how can you get more action to find the girls? >> basically now we're calling on all leaders, former statesman

or traditional rulers, people who are business tycoons to join the movement because he cannot do it alone. now it's not a matter of politics or who's to blame but how do you move fast to make sure the girls will not be sold. >> when he said in the video, allah tells me to sell the girls, what do you say? how does that make you feel? >> it makes me feel so distraught because i know islam is not a religion of violence. that is terrorism not islam. you cannot jeopardize this religion because of your own personal beliefs. don't talk about what you feel you want to do and use something so sacred too talk about violence. >> what do you think it has taken three weeks to arouse the world about this crisis?

>> because some people just decided that let's push it forward and let the world hear about it. when people don't know about anything, life is going to continue as normal. i give kudos to the people that push it on social media. people are taking the next step forward to go out there and protest and raise their voices and sign petitions and push for accountability. >> you are a perfect example, studying here in the united states and other nigerian girls studying all over the world and boka haram wants to stop education for girls. >> when you educate a girl, you educate a community. i girl will invest in the economy and really build up the generation. it's the fear. it's the culture, right? you grow up to learn that the man is in front and the woman is in behind and the man will control the woman and tell her what to do. when you see young girls

fighting for their rights, then you need to determine how to keep people in their places. >> nigeria's government didn't ask for help, there was a hesitance and embarrassment. >> i understand where the state department is coming from, it's the whole issue of sovereignty, they don't want to go to a place they were not invited. they were waiting for jonathan to say, we're in this trouble and need your help. interested in girls coming back home to parents and not having any situation of human trafficking happen within nigeria. >> thank you so much. >> thank you so much. i appreciate it. >> just now from the pentagon, colonel steve warren says as of today there is still no request from the nigerian government for military assistance from the united states. and ahead here on "andrea mitchell reports," senator john mccain joins me on the get tough strategy for vladimir putin.

we're political junkies and love primary day, it is primary day with big republican contests in north carolina and ohio and indiana. the start of six weeks of intensive primaries, tuesday face-offs every week from coast to coast. the main event is north carolina, the senate primary pitting tom tillas backed by mitt romney against greg bran nan backed by rand paul and reverend harris backed my mike

huckabee. you the winner needs to garner 50% of the vote to avoid a runoff and go on to challenge kay hagen in the fall. that should be a very tough match-up. joining me now for our daily fix, chris cillizza and "washington post" editorial columnist ruth marcus. chris, first to you. tom tillas is more or less the establishment candidate but that doesn't always work in republican politics. you have a rand paul backed candidate and mike huckabee factor and it is north carolina. >> i'm excited because your intro, six weeks straight of primary, i missed this. tillas is the candidate that national republicans think has the best chance to beat hagen in

the fall. if they can get the nomination without a runoff and it would be a july runoff more time spent and idealogicallydy advicive, it would be a real victory in a state where they have a good chance of winning. this is a big test. if he's able to get over 40%, it's a real win for establishment republicans who have struggled to get their candidates, the candidates they want rerhyme time. >> and kay hagen is one of the democrats who could win or lose, help decide who keeps control, whether the democrats keep control or lose control to the republicans of the senate. >> absolutely one of many endanger eed democrats each one really matters in a year like this. i'm really glad we're in cillizza heaven now with all of these weeks of primaries. north carolina is one of the most interesting ones, it really

presents a test of the republican party, won't definitive establish it but the libertarian wing, social conservative wing, that's going to be interesting, as is the role of runoffs during this events. we could have a situation -- i was listening to somebody predict the other day where we don't know who controls the senate until december when there might be a runoff in louisiana. talk about cillizza heaven. >> and confirmations and for budget votes and a lot of other things. let's talk about ohio. chris, ohio is everything in presidential politics and you've got a couple of interesting contests there in ohio. >> i mean, i think the one -- first of all, i don't think we expect any surprises in ohio. john kasich is going to be the republican nominee for incumbent governor and ed fitzgerald. the one people will pay most attention to is what number john

boehner gets. he does have a primary and has spent money. we know that the fight john boehner is fighting here in washington, which is sort of that tea party wing who just won't go along with him, it's reflected there. he has a challenge from his idealogical right. he's going to win. we'll look at what number he gets and what that tells us even in the speaker's own district how much dissent there is for being a member of the republican establishment. >> if there were ever a case -- i want to go to one that is not today. you have to look at this ad from iowa, a seat long held by this launch liberal, tom harkin. we know his record. you've got to look at this republican ad. it's joni earnst her ad against bruce bailey. just watch. >> she's not your typical

candidate, conservative joni ernst, carries more than just lipstick in her purse. she will take aim at wasteful spending and once she sets her sights on obamacare, joni is going to unload. one more thing, joni doesn't miss much. >> give me a shot. i'm joni ernst and i approve this message. >> ruth, this is a very different kind of ad for a woman. we've seen the rifle toting joe manchin back in his cycle. >> girls can shoot too. >> this is iowa and sarah palin -- >> and castrate cattle, it's a whole new world of equal opportunity. >> but is this an effective ad do you think? >> we're talking about primaries and you know, in a state like iowa, it could be effective in

the general election also. >> i think it's a good -- i would say i think -- it looks different, which is always your first hurdle in any political -- because at least people will look at it. it's an interesting ad and primary think effective. >> chris cillizza, thank you very much and ruth marcus. >> thanks. >> as the violence intensifies in eastern ukraine john mccain joining me on how to take on vladimir putin next on "andrea mitchell reports" on msnbc. you, my friend are a master of diversification. who would have thought three cheese lasagna would go with chocolate cake and ceviche? the same guy who thought that small caps and bond funds would go with a merging markets. it's a masterpiece. thanks. clearly you are type e. you made it phil. welcome home. now what's our strategy with the fondue? diversifying your portfolio? e*trade gives you the tools and resources to get it right. are you type e*?

the kiev government launched military operations against separatists occupying government buildings throughout eastern ukraine but russia still has the upper hand by a longshot. joining me now is a sharp critic on ukraine and other conflicts, senator john mccain. thank you for joining us. >> thank you. >> what is the administration doing right and doing wrong in

its approach to ukraine? >> i can't think of a lot that they are doing right. there's a myriad of things they are doing wrong, beginning with the failure to provide them with defensive weapons. you know, they decided finally to give meals ready to eat but didn't want them flying in american military aircraft so they trucked them in. ukrainians will fight and they have every reason to fight if this continues because it's their sovereign territory. and for us not to give them capability to defend themselves is worse than shameful. the whole issue of further action will be taken, the merkel/obama agreement is basically ratifies what he's done in crimea and what he's done so far. meanwhile, watch odessa, andrea, because he wants that port and

he's now doing this same pro vok tore sending in russians undercover, et cetera, there. then of course, it's a very short distance to moldova. if you look at it from vladimir putin's stand point, a few people sanctioned and one bank for all intents and purposes, he's doing pretty well. >> senator, when you look at the pictures of three helicopters now in the last couple of days shot down. what does that tell you about the weaponry that the separatists have at their disposal? >> that's an excellent point. it shows they are pretty capable. it's not real easy to shoot down a helicopter and they've done it to three of them, which means that they are very well armed, these aren't a bunch of people that just decided to rise up in favor of the russians. long term the future of russia is abysmal.

short term vladimir putin's popularity is skyrocketing. i'm sure you noticed because our response has been so weak, the ruble has been strengthened and their stock market has gone up. >> at this point also the pentagon is saying that they want to -- that they have supplied in the last week, just wanted to give you a chance to comment on this, what they just briefed today on nonlethal assistance to the ukrainian military to the border guards, specifically using reduction funds and u.s. embassy in kiev bought and delivered fuel pumps and binoculars and spare parts and communications gear. the equipment was purchased locally in ukraine and not trucked in. what does that tell you up against the russian army? >> i think anything is a bit helpful but it's the ukrainian military which really the president of ukraine or prime minister said that there's only

6,000 of them that are really capable but it's -- they don't have body armor. they don't have night vision capability. they don't have -- certainty don't have anti-armor. will that reverse the tide? of course not, but it will raise the price for vladimir's putin's further encroachment in ukraine. i talk to them all the time. the fact we haven't given them that assistance hurt their morale dramatically. they don't understand why in face of this aggression we wouldn't give them the ability -- help them with the ability to defend themselves, it's a morale factor for the people of ukraine as well. >> i want to ask you about one other crisis that we've all been tracking so intensively and that is the 300 nigerian school girls kidnapped three weeks ago. the u.s. says it stands ready and u.k. says the brits are

ready to help but nigerians have not asked for help. how can it be in this day in age, 300 girls, eight more last night are somewhere in the jungle, some of them being sold krolgs the border to cam bode i can't and chad and they have not been found. no surveillance or drones. what if it were your daughter or my niece? >> it's atrocious. our vocabularies don't fit into how offensive -- proper way to describe how offensive this is. i think we should get surveillance equipment down there. i think that no matter what the nigerian government is doing, that we should mobilize every asset that we have. we have air and sea and satellite capabilities. we have drone capables. we have mobility and we should just say to the nigerian government, this is offense to all human beings, to everything

the world is supposed to stand for. we're going to act and we expect you to cooperate with us. nigerian military as you know is not effective at all. this is one time i think reaches the level of atrocity that we have to act with our allies but lead again and we do have certain capabilities to think we can't track down these young girls is something that i just believe we have the ability to do so. i would africom, alert them to provide whatever military means necessary. this is not acceptable in any century, much less the 21st. >> thank you very much, senator john mccain. by the way, i misspoke, i meant cameroon and chad where officials have said that the girls have been transported across the border and this means that it is human trafficking and maybe that gives us some sort of u.n. mandate or we could at least seek a u.n. mandate. thank you very much. >> thank you, andrea.

the pentagon to pursue sexual predators. claire mccaskill and kirsten gillibrand teaming up, calling for more money to enforce sexual assault laws and hold higher ed institutions accountable. a new white house report revealing 1 in 5 women are sexually assaulted during their college years. two former unc students spoke out about their own experiences this weekend on "melissa harris perry". >> from our own assault experiences and filing complaints and helping students at dozens of other colleges, it's been a long way. initially when we first did it we were ridiculed and said it was all in our heads and we were in over our heads. now the white house and senate is talking about it and clearly we're in this together. >> joining me for the first joint interview, claire

mccaskill and new york senator kirsten gillibrand. i'm struck by the bravery of those two women. it wasn't that long ago it was very hard for women to speak up. it is only because of people like you and the valerie jair receipt and white house task force beginning to make it easier, still difficult but easier for women to speak up. >> there's no question, andrea, we both understand this has been a silent epidemic for some time, that young women have not felt empowered and haven't had the conference and there's been way too much self-blaming going on. i like to say over and over again, you do not have to have perfect judgment to be a victim of a crime. unfortunately, i think that has been the case for a lot of women who have suffered in silence. hopefully the changes that we're working on together will begin to make a difference and turn the corner on this. >> as you said, andrea, both andrea and annie are becoming advocates for women all across

america. they tell their stories and personal stories not only are the brutal rapes the the most horrible moments of their lives and the second betrayal of institutions. we have to make it worth while to do their job and protect students on campus and make sure they are held accountable. >> all of thiz institutions are the beneficiary of public funds, so what pressure can congress bear, senator mccaskill on these institutions to be more accountable and transparent and protect young women? >> we're looking at that. we're looking at other ways that we can punish universities and colleges that don't do the right thing on these cases. we have to look at what are the consequences. the universities typically have only -- students for maybe a year or less which in fact they

have been add jude indicated in their process of having committed sexual assault. why aren't these cases being referred criminally more often? why isn't their close cooperation between local law enforcement and university law enforcement. that's are all of the problems that we are working on together to try to come up with a list of solutions that make sense. >> that's exactly right. one of the survivors i spoke to, emma, who attends columbia, not only was she brutally raped but when she tried to report the crime they were trying to convince her to not report to criminal justice. when they through the process she finds there were two other victims brutalized in the same way and nothing was done. if you look at the brown case, lean that, her story is so horrible, not only brutally raped but nearly choke to death. they find her perpetrator responsibility and what does he get? a one year suspension. this is a crime that he should be in jail. he shouldn't have a one-year suspension. now she has to attend classes

with him before she graduates, that is not creating a safety environment for students and not being responsible and transparent under the federal laws that obligate these schools to do their jobs. they are failing our children miserably. >> it was shocking to see 55 schools that the white house named, talk about naming and shaming, these schools the federal government says are not complying and this includes some of the stars, the greatest stars in the ivy league. what does it take to get these universities and colleges across america to take seriously the crime of sexual -- the issue of sexual crimes against women and also against men? >> well, i think the first step is us finding out on a statistically valid basis exactly what processes and procedures and systems are they currently using. that's why we've sent out this very comprehensive survey to over 400 colleges and universities across america. those results will come back and that will be a great place for us to begin to really draft

legislation that will address the shortcomings, i was shocked to find out when i met with the department of justice and education, they couldn't even tell me how many of the thousands of colleges and universities that received federal aid even had a title ix officer. there's basics that have been glossed over and we're going to get at that. >> you know, to that point, one of the problems is we're not even enforcing the current law. most of the schools aren't submitting the information they are supposed to submit about incidence rape and not responding to the clear act that requires them to disclose. and we're not -- we don't even have enough staff to hold them accountable. one of the first things we did was ask for funding from the colleagues in the budget to make sure that the department of education and civil rights division and those who do this data collection actually have enough people to do the job. we have less people today than we had decades ago. it's not right that we cannot keep the campuses safe. we're going to flip the

incentives and that's what we're going to work on legislation to do. >> let me ask you both given the track record so far in congress, what is the likelihood you can get legislation? >> i think it's high. >> watch us work. >> you can bet on us, andrea. >> listen, kirsten and i have worked on april lot of things together. when we are focused and agree on policy, we're pretty good at rounding up votes on a bipartisan basis. i feel confident and working with senator blumenthal and reach out to all colleagues to help with this. this is something that everybody understands is critically important. i feel pretty confident we can get it through the senate. >> i guess senator gillibrand it would be interesting to see which senator would want to come out against protecting young women on college campuses. >> i think tb hard for people to oppose this kind of reform. you know, when you go to college, you should not have a

one in five chance of being raped. that should not be part of your college education. and to have the statistics be that if you go to college you're more likely to be raped in that age group than if you don't, that's unacceptable in america, in our finest institutions. these men and women should be safe and we owe that to them. our colleagues will agree. >> thank you so much. it's a powerful team. gillibrand and mccaskill or mccaskill and gillibrand. >> we'll take it either way. we're good with it. >> thanks, andrea. >> good to see you both. coming up next, congressman james clyburn on his new memoir. stay with us, you won't want to miss this. she keeps you on your toes. you wouldn't have it any other way. but your erectile dysfunction - it could be a question of blood flow. cialis tadalafil for daily use helps you be ready anytime the moment's right. you can be more confident in your ability to be ready. and the same cialis is the only daily ed tablet approved to treat ed and symptoms of bph,

exciting to be in the public arena trying to do what i can to influence the public debate to speak out for people who may not have voices on their behalf. i really appreciate doing all of that. i have to decide whether i'm ready to do that. so stay tuned. when i know you'll know. >> oh, perhaps, hillary clinton today answering a question about whether she'll decide to run for president again. in 2008 james clyburn got into a heated dispute with bill clinton when hillary was running against barack obama. clyburn ended up remaining neutral, at least publicly. in his new memoir, "blessed experiences", he reveals he wondered allowed to his wife how he could look in the faces of his children if he had not voted

for obama and how contentious with his relationship with the clintons became. congressman clyburn joins us now. what if she does run? what do you do? >> i hope she does. i am the father of three daughters. i am very, very interested in seeing the glass ceiling splattered as many times as we possibly can. hope she does run. >> in fact, there was quite a difficult phone call, after you had not supported hillary clinton and said his powerful voice came on the phone. if you batters want a fight, you will get one. it was bill clinton, former president of the united states. my long time political friend. his wife hillary suffered a major defeat and obama whipped her and bill clinton wanted me to explain why i pledged neutrality as a condition of

their authorizing a primary in south carolina. and i had kept that promise. i asked him to tell me why he thought otherwise. he exploded using the word bastard again. he didn't see how she could have lost if you hadn't put your thumb on the scale for obama? >> i'm not too sure about that. i think when obama came out of iowa having demonstrated to everybody that he was very attractive in a state with a lot of white voters that made it easy for black people in south carolina. i don't think i had nothing to do with that except that i do feel as i said in the book, i could not look at my grandchildren and say to them that i did not vote for barack obama. i just couldn't do that. >> and for you, as well as other

african-american leaders from the south who had long been friends with bill clinton, this was such a moment of history, having an african-american running kredably with a real chance of winning. >> that's true. i spent a lot of time in this book talking about the conflicts that develop, even when i was doing sit-ins back in the '60s, there were conflicts within the african-american community over what to do, how it should be done and sclc did not always see the same way as naacp. so all of these things we have to wrestle with all the time. and history is always being made. and you have to always ask yourself, am i on the right side of history when it comes to this issue. and i have a lot of that in this book. >> you were only 12 years old

when you first started working in protests with martin luther king jr.? >> that's true. we were all in the -- those of us in school -- >> you grew up --? the brown case came about. i was only 22 miles away from summerton, my father used to pray every morning for the people of clair done county, that was all in us. we were very anxious about what was going on with that fight. and so i went to naacp youth council meeting and i think i went to the bathroom or something and got back, i was president of the council. >> did you meet your wife emily while you were in jail for a protest? >> that's quite true. >> tell me about that, people who grew up in the movement? >> i'm sitting in jail waiting to get bailed out and my wife was in the group that had not been arrested that day.

and they all kinds of got into the cafeteria, some kind of way and brought food to us. and she came into where i was, waiting to be bailed out with a hamburger in her hand. and i was hungry. and i thought she was handing to me and reached for it. she pulled it back, broke the hamburger in half and gave me half, she ate the other half. i was so appreciative. 18 months later i married her. >> that's quite a bond. how many years ago was that? >> 53 come june 24th. >> congratulations, that is fantastic. >> thank you. >> when you look at politics today, the poisonous atmosphere on the hill between the two parties and you went through life and death struggles as did john lewis and other survivors of the movement. to see the pettiness of the fights today, what does this tell us? >> it tells us we have new challenges. we back then did not have to

contend with facebook, twitter, the internet. we were sort of using the telephone driving from place to place. today everything is instantous and means it's more challenging but we'll get through this. >> well, the book is blessed experiences and it is wonderful to have you here. thank you so much congressman jim clyburn. >> a quickup date before we leave you. the state department just announced the u.s. embassy is ready to coordinate a search for the kidnapped school girls and intelligence help if it's asked for. we'll update you on this and a lot more. follow us on twitter at mitchell reports.
