>> karl rove speculated that hillary clinton may have brain damage. >> i didn't say she had brain damage. >> carl did not raise in issue by accident. >> he knows look into the republican field that hillary clinton takes each one of those potential candidates and beats them. >> the interview was supposed to be sterling's apology. >> magic johnson, was he had done? he's got aids. >> i think personally he has dementia. >> the u.s. is sharing vital intelligence with nigeria handing over imagery and running surveillance flights to help find the kidnapped girls. >> the video is blowing up the internet. it was reportedly taken by surveillance cameras. >> words appear to be exchanged bring sollange starts kicking jay. >> has he done everything he can do to help min orts? i don't think so. i love that moment where sterling is clearly thinking,

should i say something awful again? ah, you know, why not. what the hell? [ bleep ] magic johnson. >> dr. rove is in the house. karl rove has not examined former secretary clinton but he's not letting them hold him back for a diagnosis. according to "the new york post" rove said this at a conference in los angeles last week. >> quote, thirty days in the hospital and when she reappears she's wearing glasses only for people who have traumatic brain injuries. we know to know what's up with that. here's the response from clinton's camp, please assure dr. rove she's 100%. this goes back to 2012 when secretary clinton fell and suffered a condition cushion that later resulted in a blood

clot. she was hospitalized for three days and earlier -- some republicans dubbed benghazi flu. he dialed back his charge on fox this morning, kind of. >> i didn't say she had brain damage. my point was that hillary clinton wants to run for president, but she would not be human if this didn't enter in as a consideration if -- and my other point is this will be an issue in the 2016 race whether she likes it or not. >> look, it is not a new pattern of behavior for mr. rove. in 2000 denied involvement in a whis ter campaign aimed at then john mccain, centered around the fact that he had an illegitimate black child and in 1994 implied ann richards was shock, horror, a lesbian. joining us, casey hunt and michael moynahan. do you think that health issues

could actually cast a shadow over hillary clinton's candid e candidacy? >> she wouldn't be the first person to deal with health issues. you mentioned john mccain, he had to relesion his health records from the war timer ra because people were insinuating he was damaged as a pow. for him running on this great record as prisoner of war and apply it to his health now, it's something we've dealt with over and over again. >> especially in this case this doesn't seem there's any basis in fact for these claims. >> right. >> michael, is this an old hat trick for karl rove? >> it is but it's a particularly dumb one, isn't it? this sort of fuel of evidence here is that she was wearing glasses after she had a traumatic injury. >> very incriminating. >> and like doctor rove, i'm not a medical doctor but the idea -- this is pa thetic business that

this going to haunt her, i was just raising the question, chgs a way of putting it out there as he's done in the past. he puts it out there by raising the question and then this is like a very, very silly thing that the kenya of this election cycle, she has brain damage. >> my next question, karl rove was this famous brilliant strategy. what happened? >> look, i think he was overvalued. i think the same thing you see somebody like lee atwater who is obviously known as the mustache twisting evil republican behind the scenes, also overvalued. karl rove, what he did in 2000 was sort of boring politics in its own way. when he tries this stuff against john mccain, did any of that stuff stick? he's a political consultant that shows a general level he have desperation. >> what do you think of that charge? do you think this reveals how

much hillary clinton is getting to the republican party? >> maybe we should ask how bush's brain is doing. no, hillary clinton has been the focus of attacks from the right for many, many years now. the vast right wing conspiracy that she raised in the 90s. no one in her camp is under any illusions this is going to be any different. part of why you've seen her with such sky high approval ratings she's enjoyed the res pit from being the center of the attention. she's waiting as long as she can before she declares -- >> they being her campaign. >> yeah, excuse me, her team, not a campaign yet. >> it also allows her to marinade in whatever issues she wants and take stands -- >> without opening herself up to open the fire that would come with an actual campaign. >> exactly. you guys have both also been following primary season. weigh in on news we just got on that front. last night that nail biter of a primary race in north carolina came to an end no one expected.

the man who was up against clay aiken, competing with him for a house seat died yesterday. one day before he was reportedly planning to concede that race. kelly o'donnell has the latest from raleigh, north carolina. >> reporter: good afternoon, this was already supposed to be a very big day in this congressional race. no one could have foreseen the tragic circumstances that would now cast a shadow over the north carolina second congressional district. officials had planned to do a canvas today going county by county to do the official vote tally necessary because the race between clay aiken, the former american idol star turned candidate and keith chrisco was so close, fewer than 400 votes behind them. there was a possibility that the results could change when they counted absentee ballots that had a bit more time to come in. what we know now is that the canvas goes forward and they

will officiate the results. the death of keith crisco, doesn't affect the process. what will happen is they will look at the vote tally and certify that. if he had been able to pull ahead, the democratic party would choose a candidate. i'm told by a source close to crisco he was prepared to concede because they looked carefully at the number and did not believe there were enough balance lots to change the results. when all of the official counting is done it's expected clay saken will be certified as the winner of the democratic primary and that is just the long general election campaign. renee elmerz is the republican congress woman and this is consider the a conservative district. it will be a tough race for a democrat. elmers and aiken put out statements for the crisco family offering their condolences and

campaign season will be on hold for some time to allow his family to leave. draw mattic events in a campaign that was already notable nationally for a seat that is considered to be safe for republicans but now certainly one to watch. >> kelly o'donnell in north carolina. what impact do you think this will have on clay aiken's candidacy? he has to go on to a tough general race against his republican opposition. obviously the results were in even though it was a close lead. does this delegitimatize things in a way? >> i don't think so. they were ready to concede, 400 vote differential. i suspect that that was probably going to fan out. they'll count the votes either way. how this manages aiken's kman going forward, look, it is very, very difficult race for him regardless of name recognition, very solidly conservative district. romney won by 57% of the vote. and you know, look, there is a

certain desperation too. you see the charges from elmers saying he's a celebrity. that's fine -- >> does he have any chance against renee elmers? >> i don't think so. i'm -- i think her campaign has been embarrassing in a number of levels saying he shares san francisco values, we know what that is code for. >> right. >> but i don't think they eastern need to go that dirty but it's embarrassing that they do. >> it seems like aiken has been handling this with clags and blacked out his website and put a statement up as we just heard taking a pause there. you see the website there. he's doing all he can to be a gentleman about this. it's a tough situation for everything. let's take a second to look at new hampshire, you've been up there doing reporting and covering this scott brown race. brown is having trouble on medicaid expansion in particular, which i find interesting. take a look at what thing he said on that.

>> it was my understanding when he first was talking about running, he didn't support medicate expansion mao again having it both ways. i think it was very important and i applaud the governors to expand medicaid. >> the state of new hampshire just expanded medicaid -- >> this is an important time. >> do you support it? >> i'm already on record. i'll give you my office give you information on that, talked about it a few times. >> gop opposition to medicare expansion doesn't seem tosh helping him, right? >> scott brown prefaced his whole kand datecy on the health care law. it was the subject of the big rollout. parts of the law are popular, preventing companies from refusing people with preexisting conditions, for example, there are many in new hampshire covered by the new medicaid expansion. it went through on a bipartisan compromise. as brown is trying to negotiate

being the anti-obamacare candidate and contending with a primary that will last until september, he might have a couple of issues on this and also on other things like guns and abortion and needs to court republicans. >> you talk to a lot of new hampshire voters about the whole range of issues. it's interesting, he rolled over to new hampshire and moved states. zb zblp. >> you see he's a little tense. getting to know his home turf. a lot of voters do not scott brown. they live in the boston media market and they had a number of things to stay about him. >> use one word to describe scott brown. >> carpet bagger. >> i love him. >> i'm a fan. >> wow. >> massachusetts. >> massachusetts. >> a gentleman. >> handsome. >> very handsome. >> half bag for the pats in the '80s? scott brown? >> all right, so people aren't for getting the fact there was

another state in political history -- thank you for that and thank you both for joining. a bit of breaking news, you're looking at live aerials, this is baltimore, a tv station, wmar tv says there's a potentially armed suspect here. we're going to monitor this situation and bring you details awe we get them. stay with us, ahead on the program, donald, i'm not a racist sterling insists his best friends have those aids and should be afraid of themselves. really... so our business can be on at&t's network for $175 dollars a month? yup. all five of you for $175. our clients need a lot of attention. there's unlimited talk and text. we're working deals all day. you get 10 gigabytes of data to share. what about expansion potential? add a line anytime for 15 bucks a month.

welcome back, donald sterling, america's favorite crazy racist relative who doesn't know how to use social media. took his chance at making a second impression and immediately screwed it up and guys, did it all for love. >> did you ever like a girl, were you ever jealous of her a little bit if she was with other guys? it isn't her i didn't want her to be photographed -- >> you were jealous. >> i admit i was jealous and it was stupid. >> i'm beginning to think donald sterling may be a little out of touch. don't blame him. blame magic johnson. >> he acts so holy. he made love to every girl in every city in america and had aids and when he had those aids, i went to my synagogue and prayed for him. >> those aids, you guys. as usual his lovely wife shelly had the sweetest most poignant

things to say about old don. >> not the man i know or i knew. there's something wrong. >> what do you think is wrong with him? do you think there's something wrong with his mental faculties or the sentiments he has in his heart? >> i really think personally he has dementia. >> the beauty of marriage. joining me to talk about all of this is rob simmelkjaer. thanks for joining. could that have gone any worse for donald sterling? >> i suppose if he dropped the n word or something it might have been worse. i can't think of how it could have gone much worse. i'm not sure who is advising him at this point, and who told him maybe just told himself it was a good idea to sit down for nationally televised interview with anderson cooper and handle it in the way that he did. but it's pretty clear to me that he just needs to separate himself completely from all cameras and microphones and telephones and recording devices because it's just not working

out. >> stop bonding with anderson cooper about trying to get the girl by being racist. strange tactic. he seems to be almost deluding himself about the backlash and nature of it. insists he's not a racist and most people still had his back. take a listen. >> the players don't hate me. the sponsors don't hate me. >> you don't believe the players -- >> the fans don't hate mee. the media -- the media, it's all the media pushing it. >> you really believe this is just the media. >> i believe it 100%. people call me by the thousands and give me support. >> you believe the players of the clippers -- >> absolutely, they know i'm not a racist and i'm not a racist. >> everybody loves him except every former clippers sponsor and also the whole team. is he in denial, insulated by the people around him? >> it's clear he's not really following the plot of what's going on here. i think the one thing that could be really relevant from that

conversation last night, there are a couple. when you heard shelly sterling speculate as to whether he has dementia or early onset of something. in watching that interview, you do sort of ask yourself exactly what his capacity is. and to the extent that he is perhaps diminished in some way, that could potentially have some -- i don't want to say sympathy but there could be an impact on the way the other nba owners in particular look at this situation and say this is a guy who isn't really -- maybe fully aware of the words coming out of his mouth. >> could also set a procedural precedent how to take a team away from someone. do you think with both sterlings saying they will fight to hold onto the team that we'll see a legal battle? >> if you listen to what donald sterling, he did say that he would not get a bunch of lawyers to fight the nba if the owners

try to take the team away. shelly is giving another story, saying she is prepared to fight. but donald seems to be willing to accept whatever judgment is passed down on him. if that's the case, that's going to put shelly in a tough situation. if donald doesn't fight it, shelly doesn't have a lot of standing to fight this. she's not the controlling owner listed in the ownership agreement with the nba. if donald decides to sell the time, that's what's going to happen. i know i believe quite strongly that the nba will get the 3/4 votes from the owners they need. >> the nba commissioner issued an apology to magic johnson on sterling's behalf. i feel compelled to apologize and he continues to be dragged into the situation and degraded by such a malicious and personal attack. why does sterling keep dragging magic johnson into this? >> that's the second time now in under two week adam silver had

to apologize with magic johnson. there's some issue sterling has. johnson was at games and spending time with this young woman. magic johnson is one of the all time legends in los angeles and he was one of the leading figures in the african-american community, sports or nonsports, you're not going to get anywhere with that. obviously, the troubling comments about magic's hiv status, there's nothing good for donald sterling anywhere in that entire monday log. it's unfortunate he went there. >> not a great look. rob simmelkjaer, thanks so much. >> an a-team of american experts are in the country. we have the latest on the search for the lost girls of nigeria. don't go away.

it's about people. we are volvo of sweden. we're back with fresh reaction to dr. karl rove's comments about hillary clinton. jay carney was asked moments ago about rove questioning whether clinton suffered brain damage. here's his response. >> here's what i would say about cognitive capacity which is that dr. rove might have been the last person in america on election night to recognize and acknowledge that the president had won re-election including the state of ohio. we'll leave it at that. >> them's fighting words. i hope this dr. rove thing

doesn't stick. nbc news just obtained a new statement from hillary clinton's press secretary, even this morning, karl rove is still all over the map and continuing to get the facts wrong. he doesn't care because he wants to do is inject the issue into the echo chamber and succeeding. it's flagrant and thinly veiled. meantime, take a look at this. >> thomas and william are joined together in holy marriage. amen. congratulations. [ cheers and applause ] >> so happier news in terms of political fights around the country, same sex couples rushing to get married in arkansas after a judge ruled it was unconstitutional. lawyers are asking for the highest court to as you say spends that judge's order. the county courthouse in little rock was flooded with couples unclear on how long the marriage licenses would be available. here's the current state of play, same-sex marriage is still

banned in 33 states around this country. alaska became the latest to have the challenge after five couples filed a lawsuit just yesterday. in virginia, demonstrations outside a federal appeals court where arguments are being healed on whether the ban violates the rights of gay people, two well known celebrity lawyers have joined forces on the case, not like in holy matrimony. >> they are pushing for a constitutional right to marriage. there's a lot of debate in that activist community as to whether that's the smartest approach right now. joining me now is richard socarites and lbgt activist and writer. >> good to be back. where do you follow on this, is now the right time to press for a constitutional right? >> i think so. i think things are moving very quickly so three, four, five

years ago it was a little little less clear. but i think today after the windsor decision last summer, people are hopeful that the supreme court that there are five votes to find a constitutional right to same-sex marriage. certainly what we know is that it is probably not as dangerous as once thought. five years ago people thought maybe we shouldn't ask for it yet and shouldn't ask the court to go that far. >> the last time they tried to bring this before the court, it didn't work. >> it didn't work, but they were successful in getting same-sex marriage returned to the state of california. >> you think it's time to try again rather than try to let this bubble up. >> i think that the supreme court is always reluctant to go further than they need to with a particular facts before them. so they will always look for the path of least resistance or historically that's what they do. the cases working their way up, the case in virginia, that's why it's so important, one of the

next cases that gets to the supreme court. >> it seems like whether the approach is bottom up or top down, change is happening from virginia to alaska. >> it's certainly working and arkansas, the first state in the south that is allowed same-sex marriage, virginia, there was a court ruling earlier but that court ruling was stayed. today in arkansas, if you're a same sex couple you can get married. >> the other big gay rights fight is over employment and right to fire people for sexuality, coming to the floor ironically through sports because michael sam was drafted in a state where gay individuals can be refused employment or fired. how do you think sam's draft might affect that fight in missouri? >> well, i think that moment captured on film was certainly very emotional and most players who are drafted, these are young guys and people in college. it's normal to respond emotionally. but i think that that for many americans may have been the first time that they saw an

unscripted real life gay couple, michael sam and his boyfriend. >> very sweet moment, really. >> very emotional moment. >> we've had a lot of professional athletes talking about this since it happened and the consensus seems to be everyone of every sexuality has this reaction to a draft moment. it's a common thing. >> right, this is not someone who had a long professional career. this is a young person. and you had a moment where everything in his path is suddenly changed. it's normal to share it in an emotional way. >> do you think that could change the debate on the employment laws? >> i think it will change the playing field in a lot of ways. it was senator mccaskill was the first person who said, in this -- our home state where michael sam plays college football and now professional football hopefully, that he could be fired for being gay in that state because there's no protection and state level protection and no enda -- >> this is the federal

legislation. >> federal legislation which would say federally, which would provide federally that you can't be fired for being gay. >> which is for now dead on arrival. >> it is now not likely, very unlikely to pass or even to get a hearing in the republican house. we think there's a lot of support for it in the senate. it has moved in fits and starts but no one is pushing it now because the action seems to be around same-sex marriage. but arguably, more importantly, it would affect more people to have this employment nondiscrimination protection -- >> so much on the line. >> most places you do not have. >> and seems like a couple of steps forward on marriage and couple steps back on other issues. >> a lot of progress being made. >> progress, it's a happy day on this front. >> up next, the city of seattle announcing progress on another issue, the highest minimum wage in the country to be paid all in frappuccinos and nirvana cds, kidding. we look at the policy behind paychecks. don't go away. honestly, the off-season isn't really off for me.

welcome back. congress is paralyzed on raising the minimum wage nationally but states and cities across the country are doing something about it. this weekend the vermont legislature voted to raise that state's minimum wage $10.50 by 2018. the highest state minimum wage in the country. that makes vermont the seventh state this year to hike minimum wage. cities are doing even more already. seattle making the biggest move towards $15 an hour for minimum wage over the next seven years, chicago voters also supported a $15 an hour minimum wage. one city already giving this a go, ij ka, new york. joining us by skype right now, thank you for joining. your city became a certified living wage employer. tell us what that means? >> it means that we know that the minimum wage is the poverty

wage. if you work 40 hours a week and two children at the minimum wage you don't have enough money to pay for your health care, your rent, your clothing and your food. you rely on government services like medicaid, medicare or food stamps. what we decided to do, what does it cost to live in our community each week to provide those things for yourself and your family and divide that by 40 and we came up with a living wage, what it takes to actually live. we pay -- even though we're going through tough fiscal times, it's a priority to fund our employees at this living wage. >> and what kind of economic benefit do you think you'll see from doing that? >> right away, you see increase in consumer spending because folks at the lowest end of my -- i grew up -- we didn't have a lot. my mother always worked minimum wage jobs and raised four of us. when we got a financial windfall any money that comes in, goes out right away in the form of

consumer spending, buying more groceries and paying back pills and credit cards. and it broadens the success of our economics. this is why in new york state we've led every other state -- every other county in job growth for the last two years. every month that i've been mayor we have the lowest unemployment rate in all of new york state at about 4%. >> let's talk about that personal commitment a little bit more. you have this incredible background in this story of seeing your mother struggle with this. have you talked to her since this policy change? she must be proud of that? >> it was a very emotional -- we had a couple of people affected single mothers speak at the press conference and my mother saw that. and it was -- it was just nice because to know you know as a kid you don't understand why when your mother gives all of herself to a company when she

spends 60 hours a week working for them, if they don't give her a wage that allows her to pay for all of the groceries for that month, we think what's an employer for. ? that was a commitment i made to myself and mom and i was happy to fulfill that commitment. >> why should other cities and counties follow that lead? >> i think because we can't -- frankly, and municipal leaders all over know this because we can't wait for congress to do it. the best way is for the federal government to raise a minimum wage to a living wage. we know they are not going to do it because incentives are misaligned. they can get re-elected again and again by bashing each other. city and county leaders can't do that. they have to fix the problems they are facing. it is good government and good politics and it's going to broaden your municipality's economic base if you can raise what people are making it and you'll generate more consumers which is good for your community. >> new york state's governor andrew cuomo has seen a lot of

calls to follow your lead. right now the minimum wage is $8 an hour. should he change that? >> well, yes, i'll say he's already showing great leadership as soon as he came into office, he pushed to increase the minimum wage and been increasing each year, will rise to $9.25 in a couple of years. but i think we need to move even faster than that. and i think that the governor has proven that he's tuned into these issues before so hopefully he will. >> thank you for that powerful story, mayor and we'll track it closely all around the country. >> and thank you for making me look old. i appreciate it. >> back at you. impressive gentlemen. >> thank you, skype. for the call to action we're showing support for low wage workers and workers calling for a living wage. we want you to sho your support, join them on twitter and facebook, use fastfoodglobal. the fast food workers will be protesting for a living wage

this week. oir call to action last week we asked house speaker boehner to pass comprehensive immigration reform this year. moments ago president obama laid out a path forward on this issue. >> to their credit, i think speaker boehner and some of the other leaders there do believe that immigration reform is the right thing but they've got to have a political space that allows them to go ahead and get it through the caucus and get it done. i've said to them, if they've got ideas, i'm happy to talk to them. we're not hell bent on making sure that every letter of what's in the senate bill is exactly what ultimately lands on my desk for signature, but there's core principles we've got to get done. >> president obama went on to describe those core principles and warned it's going to get harder to pass immigration reform as we get closer to

editor in chief of yahoo! travel. >> my compliments to your writers there -- >> i'm not just a passive person, we have an amazing person. >> that wasn't me, i was so, guys, full disclosure, i was there before and after this, and i have to say jay z looked in fine spirits. no one there would have suspected anything if there weren't this leak. i will go to you on this, paula. shubt what happens between behind elevator doors stay there? >> i think the bigger issue is really privacy, because hotels were, like, the last bastion of vegas. what happened in hotel used to actually really stay in hotels. now we're seeing -- >> no more. >> -- that they don't. i think it has to do with money. at the end of the day this case, the market for this case is around $250,000. >> wow. really? >> if you are a security guy and you are making around $60,000 to $80,000 a year and you can make four years worth of salary in one night, a lot of people are going to go to that, and a lot

of hotels right now are really freaking out. >> it does paint a picture of a terrifying scenario where every moment is up for grabs. it's every video is for sale. how do you stop that? >> you know, you have to go through your staff with a fine-tooth comb. i talked to a bunch of hotel people today, and they're really worried about it. there are still some hotels that -- if you look at the essex house where brad and angelina say. you know they do some weird stuff in the elevator, but you never got that video. i think they're going through their staff, and they're really making the legal -- the legal implications clear. >> i think you're projecting, paula. >> i'm just saying. >> you can't tell me that brad and angie don't have -- they keep it fresh. >> that's our next panel. >> their kids are weird. >> they're a lovely couple. >> come on. >> we reached out to the standard and andre bellage. their team very concerned about this. they really are taking it serious. >> they should. >> could this couple actually sue, do you think? >> you know, i don't know.

>> they're not going. >> thab they will. i think they want to make this quiet and go away as fast as possible. these are people who got married in secret. their relationship for a long time was secret. they don't want to do anything to blow this up, and i mean the interesting thing for me is that jay z and beyonce here are on camera. they don't think they're being watched. jay, for one, behaves himself quite admirably with extraordinary restraint. a woman he knows is viciously attacking him. he is purely defensive. just trying to, you know, quell this problem as fast as possible, and never did he take the chris brown aggressive -- >> he didn't fight back. >> i find that impressive. the thing we all have questions about is why is beyonce just standing there doing nothing? where is the agency when you need them? >> there are a lot of people speculate about just that and _#what jay z said to is solange.

why do you think b and j have such a hold on our national consciousness? >> they're an interesting couple in that he is from the hood. she's from the upper middle class. she's a super classy r & b star, he is an incredible rapper. you know, so they're -- they seem to be from different sides of the track. we both love them equally and independently. let me not say equally because beyonce is the future nobel prize winning superstar, and jay z is just widely beloved rapper. >> no, no, no, no. he is a billionaire businessman. >> yeah. >> entrepreneur. >> savvy on politics too. him weighing in -- >> i'm much more keen to jay z than beyonce. >> i love jay z too, but i see the interest of the couple that we love both of them, and then when they come together, you -- >> where does solange fit in that national love affair?

>> well, until yesterday, i dare say, i think most americans have never heard of solange. >> right? >> compared to anyone but beyonce, she's a successful musician in her own right. let's give her some props where props are due. >> folks are saying this is her first hit. maybe that's not fair to say. solange was not a successful musician really. she's somebody who was -- >> come on. come on. >> yeah, that's it. >> she's trying to make a come up. obviously we got caught in the middle of some family drama. i'm sure that -- >> she's just stand thering not doing anything? >> paula, when you talked earlier about a video like this, do they -- are they owed some criticism on this for actually ala people buying blood diamonds, buying the thing that maybe shouldn't be bought? >> to be honest it's a business. there's an appetite for it.

there's an appetite for it. you guys are playing it. >> you're saying -- >> we are. >> while you're playing it. >> we are complicity. >> i was complicity all last night when i kept watching it going, oh, no, she didn't. what? oh, my god. >> did you look through all the -- my favorite was was from kanye where chloe, know better. >> you guys, a lot of love here. no good people, but a lot of love. >> you know what -- >> i'll take that. >> pleasure to have you here, and you catch the cycle week days at 3:00 p.m. eastern time. now that's it for this edition of ronan farrow daily. you can catch me 1:00 p.m. eastern time on msnbc. now, get excited. time for the reid report with my colleague joy reid for whom i'll never get cold feet. joy, what is coming up? >> i love it. thanks. >> right? >> this is mstor -- too many
