♪ show 'em the curve. it's beautiful. it's more than that... ...it's perfect. introducing curved ultra high definition television from samsung. homecoming, sergeant bergdahl back on american soil, and a welcome still dogged by questions and controversy. meanwhile, baghdad is on hold as militants march in. and hillary clinton and politics. >> and now rick perry, an analogy which looks like a hangover from another time. >> and this happened, chris christie getting down with jimmy

fallon and is this how you want the comeback. good morning, i'm chris jansing and president obama's national security team working and working around the clock and weighing the options on what the united states should do about iraq, and a country descending into chaos, and here is secretary of state john kerry a short time ago in london. >> and give n the gravity of th situation, i would anticipate timely decisions from the president regarding the challenge. >> overnight, two more cities northeast of baghdad were taken off by an al qaeda off shoot group known as isis. the president says all options are considered as republicans push for intervention saying that the militants are posing a direct threat to the united states. >> it is dangerous, because if you believe that al qaeda is planning operations, they are, and if you believe that this group wants to do the terrorist activities outside of the europe

and the united states, they do. so you cannot allow them to get safe haven. >> nbc chief foreign correspondent richard engelle joining us from northern iraq with the latest on the ground. richard? >> we are now 30 miles from the center of the city of mosul and the city is still held by radicals of an al qaeda offshoot called isis, and just a short time ago, the mayor of mosul told us that the militants have begun to impose islamic shariah law, and hard-line shariah law in mosul and that means shariah law in the second largest city in iraq, and so much for the idea that this country would become a thriving democracy that would spread across the middle east. what happened in mosul a militant came out in the city and read a statement and said that no other armed groups could be allowed in mosul and women should be bailed and that all forms of mystical islam would be

prohibited. the next objective of the militants is baghdad. they want to topple the iraqi city, and they have moved to 40 miles from the outskirts of baghdad, and the iraqi government is clearly nervous. the mosques in the city are telling people to gather weapons and to prepare for an assault. richard engel, nbc news, outside of mosul, northern iraq. >> thank you, richard. i want to bring in congressman adam shift, a democrat from california and a member of the intelligence committee. good morning, congressman. >> good morning. >> you heard what mike rogers said, it is a direct threat to the safety of the united states, and do you agree and what should the administration do about this? >> well, i do agree that there is a direct threat both in syria and iraq and many of the foreign jihadis have a motivation to attack our homeland and right now, they are fully occupied in going after baghdad and going after bashar al assad, but it won't last forever, and so this is a real threat, but where i disagree with mike is what the

response ought to be. often for my colleagues is to come in with boots on the ground or planes in the air, and the problem, and the principle problem in iraq is the maliki government has sidelined the sunni population and driven them into the arms of the extremists, and unless that changes, the sunni population that is not extreme is none the less going to be siding with the isil, and that has to be changing. the politics of this has to change, and the government in baghdad has to change, and i don't know if we have without our troops on the ground there the intelligence capability of determining if we even had the air support where the air support ought to be utilized, because the iraqis on their own have been heavy handed in the use of air and that may have alienated the population more than it has combatted the militants there. >> and there s i think that if there is one consistent call, and particularly on the

republican side, it is for air strikes. senator lindsey graham says that the white house should authorize them, and let me play part of what he said. >> there is no scenario where we can stop the bleeding in iraq without american air power. the iraqi army is on the verge of collapse. i would urge the administration to get all of of our people out now. we have another benghazi in the making here. >> and so if not air strikes, what way do you see forward, congressman, to stop the bleeding, and what do we do? >> well, look, i certainly support providing more materiel support to the iraqi government, but it has to be conditioned on the iraqi government to make more changes and bringing in the sunnis and being a more inclusive government, and the excruciating thing about this is that it is not inevitable. it was not inevitable even when we did not get the agreement to stay in iraq, but it is done largely by maliki's own making.

i do agree with lindsey that we have to start getting our people out, because i am not sure how much time we will have to do that later, but although, i do think that the isil is going to find the resistance much stiffer in baghdad as the shiite p population there is far less likely to turn and run, because there is nowhere for them to run, but nonetheless, prudent the move our people out, and it is prudent to provide greater materiel support, and imperative to bring pressure on the maliki government to change, but i'm not prepared to support air power at this point until there are real changes in the government, and even then i am low to rely on the intelligence that we get from the iraqis, because i believe it is subject to great doubt. >> and as you know, the part of the argument that the republicans have made is that we should have seen this coming. speaker john boehner coming down hard on the president, and the administration for not being better prepared for this, and refusing requests from mr. maliki to conduct air strikes when he saw some of these

opposition groups and the militant groups forming. how much of this do you believe if any belongs on the doorstep of this administration? >> well, i think that it is largely a problem maliki is making and not the president of the united states. if you have looked at the way the iraqis have used the air power from the united states they have used it to level the neighborhoods and leveled the neighborhoods of the sunnis which has driven them right into the arms of the militants, and so they have used it not laterally, but counter productively and that is one of the problems here, an unless the nature of the government changes and unless it is less of a sectarian war in which the sunnis are driven to join the ranks of isil, it doesn't matter the military pressure that we apply until we want to put more american boots on the ground, which no one is e prepared to

do. >> i want to bring in usa army retired general and nbc military analyst jack jacobs, and what do you see as the options? >> do nothing. i don't think that the president is going to be looking like it is politically feasible, because he is going to be acting like he is doing something which is why john kerry said what he said. and put the boots on the ground which as mr. schiff said, and that is not being considered in a reasonable way, and so you have a few tactical air strikes to solve the problem, but this tend, it will not change the k ark. >> and a jack, we spent all of these years training the iraqi military to handle these situations, and how did it fall apart so quickly? >> we left, and as general mcchrystal opined if you are

going to be involved in this type of operation to change the way how people use the military establishment, to krcreate political basis for for their country, you have to be prepared to stay there decades and we didn't do that. they have lots of equipment, but poorly trained and no strategic or tactical plans to cope with this stuff, and the most important thing that mr. schiff said is the government's incredible corruption, and that stuff does not go unnoticed even among the people who are the sunnis who are on the side of the government. incredible corruption, and not going anywhere. it is not surprising that the army melted away in the face of really limited opposition. >> and this is the beginning of this conversation as we said. there are talks going on right now about what the administration will do, but if i can, congressman, i want to ask you bowe bergdahl as well. he just got back to the united states around 3:30 this morning,

and we have not confirmed independently that the pictures in the video are him. he is now at brook army medical center where the treatment is going to continue. we also just got word from his family asking for privacy. they are not at least immediately going there. you know all of the controversy, congressman, surrounding this release, and what should happen to bowe bergdahl now? >> well shgs, i think that ther to be a complete military investigation into the circumstances in which he left the unit. and i think that we should await the outcome of that and none of us at this point know what was going on in his head at that time, and what his intent was, but i have full confidence that we can get answers to the questions, and you know, then we will follow that evidence where it leads in terms of the repercussions should be depending upon the finding of the military investigation. so i think that we ought to probably hold our peace until we find where the facts lead us and

it is necessary for the military to do that. >> colonel, what is ahead for sergeant bergdahl? >> he will be put in a holding unit until the investigation is done, and if it is recommended that he is charged, he is going to be charge and then the army will have an article 32 investigation which is the military equivalent of the grand jury process, and the accused will have a right to be represented. and if the officer recommends that he is court-martialed, the commander to whom he is assigned can decide to court-martial him or not, and ultimate i l ly, he going to be separated from the service, and ultimately if he is going to be sent to leavenworth or what kind of discharge, honorable, and all of the benefits that accrue to that. >> hundreds of thousands of dollars in that case? >> orr, or something under less than honorable conditions which is wholly a function of a court, and the decision by the commander to accept the court's

findings. >> colonel jack jacobs who if i may say became a grand father again yesterday. >> yes, again. first grandchild in 16 years. thank you very much. >> and thank you so much for coming on the show congressman schiff. >> thank you, chris. >> and we will talk about president obama's decision about the war in iraq and a decision he once called dumb. and how the kids are being treated coming over from central america, and we will get a live update from the border. for this. it's not happening, honey. let her get it. she got her safe driving bonus check from allstate last week. and it's her treat. what about a tip? here's one...get an allstate agent. nice! switch today and get two safe driving bonus checks a year for driving safely. only from allstate. call 866-788-0900 now. hold on man, is that a leak up there? that's a drip.

as the chaos erupts on the ground in iraq, there is a political situation around that grave situation there. and while president obama tries to quell the violence, the

republicans have quickly laid the blame right on his doorstep. >> the president wanted out and now we are paying a very heavy price, and i predicted nit eed 2011 and you can go back to look at the quotes. >> and then the quotes of barack obama in illinois as a state senator calling the iraq war a dumb war in 2002 and a decision that made a major role in his campaign against senator mccain, and that paralleled with history and this reality, a nation weary of any further foreign intervention as seen in the nbc latest poll. and joining me the host of the reid report is msnbc's joy reid, and jonathan altar and editor and chief of box.com, and ezra klein, policy analyst for msnbc, and good to see you all. >> good morning, chris. >> and john, let me start with you, because you have spent a lot of time with this president, but politically speaking, where is he with iraq? >> well, he is in a world of hurt with this issue, because there are no good options.

it is a huge mess. we haven't even begun to assess the humanitarian implications of these, you know, islamic fascist fascists. >> and the introduction of shariah law came quickly. >> yes, and he has to worry about that and make a tough decision on the level of military involvement, and no ground troops obviously, but almost certainly some kind of help for the baghdad government in order to stave off these islamic fascists who are running the country. >> and he is making the decisions in the context of the tricky political situation, and speaker boehner as we said quick to jum on the president yesterday. take a listen. >> it is not like we haven't seen over the last five or six months, these terrorists moving in and taking control of western iraq and now they have taken control of mosul, and 100 miles

from baghdad and what is the president doing? taking a nap. >> and joy, tough words, and how does the president navigate the politic politics of this? >> well, you almost wish we had a country where there was any zone beyond politic, but there isn't. and even something like this, and there is never going to be a shortage of people who is are going to say, had we only stayed longer we could have won the war, and that is true in vietnam, and true with john mccain and some republicans and lindsey graham and others with iraq. they are saying it is the president's fault for ending the war, and something that george w. bush wanted to do on the same exact skchedule, so that the political part of it is what it is, and it is what the president dealing with any issue, and he can't make decisions based on it, because it would be true no matter what is happening, but in terms off what we do now, there is no appetite among the american people to go back and revisit a war in iraq or anything to do with ground troops or anything to do with the shooting war, and the question remains for me, can we

even with air strikes cause a country's military to fight for its own survival? this we have spent treasure, lives, billions of dollars standing up an iraqi military if they are going to rip off the uniforms and run, we can't give them the will not to do that and they have to do that. >> and one of the people who has been going after the president, senator mccain is calling for firing of president obama's entire national security team and bringing back some of the bush team like general petraeus. >> please. >> and ezra, do they really want to see the warhawks there? >> eyes, the bush team did such a great job to get us into the mess in the first place and looks like a wonderful idea in the first place, and it is honestly striking to see people who are putting us in a negat e negative-sum war in iraq arguably only to say that we told you it would go this way if we left, and i don't know the length of time we should have stayed there, but the problem as joy gets to, there is only so

much that the u.s. could do to build a society in iraq. frankly, we can't do all of that much more than we did, and frankly, trying to do too much in the first place. the statistic that i keep coming back which "guardian" reported, 30,000 iraqi troops running from 800 soldiers. 30,000 running from 800, a and that not an iraqi army that could not have won the fight, but an iraqi group who did not want to fight. and we can send in drones or whatever, but the next is what comes next? one to five years? delay it longer? and it is not like maliki is covering himself in glory and part of the reason they are having a resurgence is because of his awful treatment of the sunnis and this is a terrible mess and anybody who is going on tv to suggest that there is an easy solution to the it, they are just lying. >> and the problem to that statistic, chris -- >> which one? >> the 800 chasing out 30,000 is

that it does ignore the sunni e shiite divide which is at the center of this entire thing. so, in mosul most of the troops who were fleeing, and didn't care whether the insurgents took over were sunnis and in the baghdad area, most of the troops are shiites and you might have seen a picture in "the new york times" this morning of the volunteers going out to defend baghdad. you could have a irani iaian sh involvement in baghdad and so don't get ahead of yourselves and know that the insurgents did well in the northern part of the country, and the problem is that, you know, the, there are huge tectonic historical plates shifting and these borders that the world has lived with for 70 years in this area are meaningless in the face of those

basic shiite sunni plates. >> and those plates, you can not ignore that as they shift, there is a different story, joy, what is this going to mean for the midterm elections and mean for congress going forward? >> well sh, unfortunately, theyl mean the same thing, which is essentially nothing. we have a total gridlock in washington where everything is so hyperpartisan and political and everything that the president does is so steeped with partisan politics and midterm election politics, that i don't know that we can sort it out from that standpoint, but going back really to the core issue that we are e dealing with in the middle east, we can't get away from the fact that we did fight a war, and that in this the end took iraq which is a country with a ma jjority shia population and made it the friend of iran which is the other big shiite population in the middle east and now we have a question of, are politicians, and the political leaders

suggesting that we go to bomb the sunnis when most of the allies in the region, whether it is the saudis, whether it is, right, or the sunni governments in that region, so we would have now the spectacle of now fighting to further empower iran? what are we doing? i mean, we can't get away from the fact that going into the e region in the first place and imploding a country water ribble idea? and we find ourselves in the unusual position of being on the same side as iran in this, and we are out of time, but so much to talk with my original company. >> and so proud to have been one of the original company. >> and thank you so much jonathan, joy, and ezra, and our paths will cross again, and especially you, ezra in d.c. and be sure to watch joy reid this afternoon on msnbc at 2:00 weekdays. >> and now, where does rick perry stand making a comparison

here is something that you don't often hear from hillary clinton, a former secretary of state getting into a testy exchange and this time over same-sex marriage in an interview with npr. >> i think that you are being very persistent, but you are playing with my words, and playing with what is such an important issue. >> i want to clarify so that -- >> no, you are not trying to clarify, but you are trying to say that i used to be opposed and now i'm in favor and i did it for political reasons, and that is just flat wrong. so let me just state what i feel like you are imp plying and repudiate it. it have a strong record. i have a great commitment to this issue, and i am proud of what i have done and the progress that we're makeing. >> and let me bring in msnbc contributor and writer for the washington post jonathan

capehart and another company member and the very first person that i said, will you be part of the company. and so hillary clinton and you heard her deny that there are political reasons behind the shift last year to support same-sex marriage, and talk a little bit about that, because we don't hear her get that tone of voice very often. >> no, we don't, and i think that in the clip that you just played, i think it is the key there where secretary clinton bristled at the motinotion that position on same-sex marriage and her change was politically motivated rather than what it really was, which is an evolution in her thinking and in her view on the issue. here at the washington post, the paper ran a story last year detailing secretary clinton's position on the issue of marriage equality going all of the way back to 1999, and when you read this, and i will write about it later, chris, and i will make sure that you get it, but when you read it, you will see there in quasi realtime

meaning through the years of 1999 through 2001 and 2008 during the campaign and how her mind changed going from marriage is between one man and one woman to supporting civil unions to getting out of politics when she became the secretary of state, and then once she left the state department coming out full force in favor of marriage equality, and keep in mind that her evolution is the same evolution president barack obama took. so i could understand why the secretary hillary clinton bristled at chris gross' words. >> and so meanwhile, more headlines on the take of same-sex marriage of rick perry. >> i may have the genetic coding that i'm inclined to be a alcoholic, but i have the desire not to do that and i look at the homosexual issue as the same

wa way. >> so you reacted to the governor's comments with a column titled "rick perry's gay fixation" and it is not the fir first time he has made comments like this, it is? >> no, no, he wrote a book about the boy skoutcouts where he made same connection of homosexuality and being gay and a disorder like alcoholism, and this if you choose not the have a drink, and if you choose to, you know, give up being an alcoholic, i mean, this is something that you can actually choose if you want to do that, and he is doing that about the gays and the lesbians which quite frankly, if you know any gays and lesbians if they chose to be someone who willingly puts themselves up to be discriminated against or being treated as a second-class citizen, depending upon the country that you live in targeted for death, would they choose it? no, they wouldn't, and that is how god made us, but rick perry for some reason does not want to

see it that way. >> and it is interesting when you look at the polls that changed so much from when he first ran for president to now, and he is think thing of running for president again, and so it is interesting to put it in that con netext as well that supportr same-sex marriage has increased substantially. >> skyrocketed. >> but i have to talk to you about this, speaking of running for president, and this was dubbed the new take for governor chris christie and they are dancing with jimmy fallon on the "jimmy fallon show" and we are calling it dancing, but is there a positive, because obviously his team saw a positive to come out of this. >> sure. i mean, look, we are laughing at chris christie, but we are laughing with chris christie and this is the thing that the governor does well. he makes fun of himself. he is not afraid to laugh at himself, and one of the dances

that was there and i could not see the monitor, but if you showed the last dance that they did, and that is the, you know, the bridge closure dance where he stopped dancing and looks at jimmy fallon and does, eh and walks off of the stage. that is to me, the clearest sign yet that governor christie believe s th believes that the bridgegate scandal is not going to come anywhere near implicating him anywhere directly into the scandal, and so it is gotten to the point now and enough distance that he can make fun of that and keep going and pursuing his 2616 -- 2016 ambitions. >> thank you, jonathan capehart. >> hey, look forward to seeing you down here. >> well, me, too, because nobody knows the restaurants like jo jonathan capehart. >> and canter says after his stunning loss that he is going to step down in july. the republicans say they will hold the leadership elections on june 19th, less than a week from

homeland secretary judd johnson is giving the parents of these children a strong warning. >> we provide a number of things for children when we find them, because the law requires it, and because our values require it, but it is not safe, and it is not a desirable situation, and i would encourage no parent to send their child or send for their child through this p process. >> every single day as many as 400 children are crossing the border without parents, and 47,000 have been apprehended since october, and what can and should be done, and joining me along the mexico border in mission, texas, the host of telemundo, and soon, the head of this hour on msnbc, my friend jo jose diaz.

>> well, chris, you are right, it is a not just one concrete building that is housing these people, but it is not just 90 degrees, but it is 105 degrees here in mcallen. and this video that the washington post brought out is smuggled, because they are not all allowing the press to go in to see the conditions and talk to the people. i have spoken, chris, to a lot of the people that have been processed and that are on their way out. and what i mean "out" is for example, if you have a family member in the united states, and you are, say, a father and you bring your child or mother and you bring your child, you are processed through if you have family in the united states, then ins is having that family member in the united states be contacted, and that family member is paying for a bus trip for the new migrants that have

arrived to go to where that person is in the united states and those migrants receive very strong dock yu mumentation on hy must proceed in the future, which according to the government will be a deportation process. i spoke to these people out, and they just talk about the hell, the hell that they went through coming through mexico and into the united states, and when they have left their countries, and the majority come from el salvador, and guatemala and honduras and the majority have come from honduras, and they narrate a two to three-week process getting here sh, and so we have been saying that the crisis has been going on for some time and we have seen. 45,000 detained and 45,000 unaccompanied minors in the united states and the officials say as many as 90,000 could be detained by the end of this year, think of the people that are in the pipeline coming over here, and what they describe is hell. it really is. >> i have to ask you, because we

are almost out of time, but quickly, look, i have not heard anybody on this program and we have been talking about it, and it is heartbreaking to see the pictures of the kids and nobody says it is going to move the needle on immigration certainly before this election, but do you see or hear anything that is different than that, jose? >> no. no, i don't think so. i think it is very difficult to get any immigration reform out of the house of representatives and it is clear that the republicans have an internal crisis on their hands and many of them believe it is because of immigration and the canter loss, and they are ul manage over it, and i don't see it possible, but this is happening as we speak and going to happen tomorrow and next week, and you can't just wish it to go away. you can't think that by inaction, inaction is going to cause action. something needs to be done, because this is happening as we speak. >> jose diaz ba lart, and soon to be full-time kind of because he has a bunch of jobs, but coming to us at msnbc, and great to see you, jose, even from

afar. >> and a full time admirer of yours. that is a fact. >> likewise. and the tweet of the day comes from meteorologist jeff, now is the chance that it has not happened since june of 1919 with the #s honeymoon, full moon and strawberry moon and you won't see it again until 2049. check it out. insta-glam collection from covergirl new ready set gorgeous makeup insta-gorgeous skin new bombshell curvaceous mascara insta-bombshell lashes and new colorlicious lip gloss insta-licious lips insta-glam you, then instagram me! easy breezy beautiful covergirl that would be my daughter -- hi dad. she's a dietitian. and back when i wasn't eating right, she got me drinking boost.
