now, it's time for prison. america's prisons, i will see you in a few morning. up next week"weekends with alex witt" the white house may have big hurdles in congress over the iran nuke agreement. sweeping and deadly. stormy weather to begin this weekend. this as it appears spring has finally arrived in parts of the country. for the first time we are hearing from the police officer who went into a tirade at an uber driver. does his apology go far enough? you'll hear exactly what he says. a new smartphone survey. how much some rely on their devices in everyday life. good morning, everyone.

welcome to "weekends with alex witt". we begin with extreme weather in the country's midsection. two people are dead after flooding in kentucky. thousands in kansas are without electricity after a powerful storm. reynolds wolf is here with the forecast. good morning reynolds. >> hi, alex. hate to be the bearer of bad news. but in parts of the northeast, snow is back in the forecast again. i know. it's crazy. burlington, caribou, buffalo before all is said and done. we make our way hour by hour. pesky snow showers to keep an eye on. certainly a dusting can be expected. higher elevations of maine, new hampshire, vermont could get a bit more as we make our way through. could see anywhere from 2 to 3 in spots. some locations as much as five. you know the drill. take it easy.

in the southeast more of the same. precipitation. not necessarily the snowfall obviously but seeing rain. it may -- i would say the next couple of days. in the south, windshield wiper action. especially along 65 75 be careful. as we make our way into the forecast into monday another chance of seeing severe storms pop up. too early to say whether we're talking tornados. still, severe thunderstorms, large hail, damaging winds all certainly a possibility. yes, the tornados can't rule those out either. alex, back to you. >> i'll take it. thank you so much. the kenya red cross says a survivor of a college massacre has been found two days after the terror attack. it comes as authorities made several arrests linked to thursday's sought. the "new york times" has this headline come out and live. it was a lie. survivors said many students

fell for that trick and they were killed. tell me about the survivor and the arrests. >> the shock of the massacre. anger is growing. astonishingly this morning we had a survivor who came out from hiding. 19-year-old cynthia hid in a large cupboard and covered herself with clothes. she heard the gunfire. she was terrified. even last night she refused to come out even when she heard her classmates in the corridor. she suspected that the rescuers today were gunmen. it was only when she heard her teacher that she finally came out. she's a christian. she spent the whole time just praying to guy. she's thirsty, she's hungry but otherwise absolutely fine after 48 hours in hiding.

the anger is growing with the fact that the government seems to have had intelligence that a university was going to be attacked. but obviously this one was not protected well enough. a spokesman for the government told me yesterday that they simply didn't have specific enough intelligence. meanwhile, the government is saying five more people have been arrested in connection with this attack. four were clearly shot dead. we have seen their pictures. it sounds like another of the government blew himself up. but it is still not clear whether others escaped. i've spent most of the day at the mortuary where there have been terrible scenes of grief and emotion, photographing their loved ones who are dead. and they are coming out, as you can imagine, just a terrible state, in tears. tension is spilling over.

there are fights between some of the relatives and some of the security personnel, who are trying to hold them back. it is a very very difficult situation. very close to 119 bodies. so far the death toll is 150. there are rumors that is likely to rise. haven't been confirmed yet, but people are saying that many were bodies have been found and simply not added to the official death toll. alex, a very difficult situation here. we understand bus loads of survivors are on their way to nairobi and the various provincial centers. the people who endured the most terrible massacre. al shabaab, the terror group linked to al qaeda, released a a statement. saying no amount of precautions of safety measures will guarantee kenya's safety or thwart another attack.

the city will run red with blood. another threat from the terror group who has proved here and nairobi a couple of years ago that it can carry out the most dreadful massacres. >> terrifying and tragic. another american is under arrest suspected of trying to join isis militants overseas. 30-year-old mother of two from philadelphia was arrested friday and charged with trying to support isis with money and resources. thomas was preparing to fly to spain in hope of reaching syria to fight alongside the militants. her arrest comes days after two new york women were arrested and charged with conspiracy to carry out a bombing here in the jack jacobs, with a welcome to you, colonel. in both cases, authorities act before any action was able to carry out. but all the suspects seemed to be committing acts against u.s. interests. how do u.s. official track down terrorists like this?

or would-be terrorists at least? >> most communicate on the internet and through messages using all kinds of social media, facebook and so on. those are public forum. just about anything can listen to them and the feds also do. the feds have content protocols. so certain sequences of words in combination or repeatedly by number, they can usually tell someone who is about doing something usually follow. >> let's talk about the philadelphia case specifically here. the suspect is accused of planning to go and join isis in the middle east. prosecutors are saying that she told an isis fighter in syria about her wish to become a marter and said that would be amazing. a girl can only wish. how difficult is it for authorities to post between the people who post serious threats from those who may not get the implication of their actions? >> well back ground has a lot

to do with it. by the way, i think none of these people who have been arrested and others aspire to jihad have any idea what the implications of their actions are, even if they're serious. these are relatively immature people no matter their age. they don't realize what they are doing is not particularly good for them. and they want to accomplish some sort of mission because they are possibly disaffected. disaffected people are at the root of all of these plots. it is relatively easy. the feds have a great deal of experience sorting these people out. it is kind of interesting since 9/11 we have not had many plots uncovered against americans on american soil. but it doesn't necessarily mean that it's not going to happen again. and that's why the authorities are so vigilant about it. >> absolutely. okay. colonel jack jacobs many

iranian president is honoring to vow his country's promises if the u.s. and its allies does the same. now it's up to president obama to sell the tentative framework to a skeptical congress. nbc's john yang with a good morning to you. what is the biggest challenge for the president? >> well this is a big challenge, alex. you thought it was tough to get an agreement with a foreign enemy that called the united states the great satan. now he may have an even tougher task selling it to his toughest domestic opponents, republicans in congress. on air force one, president obama began the selling job for the nuclear deal with iran reaching out to congressional leaders. it's a pitch he's taking to the public this morning in his

weekly address. >> today we have a historic opportunity to prevent the spread of nuclear weapons in iran and to do so peacefully with the international community firmly behind us. >> some republicans say the agreement, really just an outline the administration hopes to fill in by the end offup, is a bad deal. >> i'm going to do everything i can to stop these terms from going forward. >> while they returned to a haoe error's welcome hoping devastating sanctions would soon be eased, the leader of america's closest middle east ally declared his determined opposition. >> such a deal does not block iran's path to the bomb. it paves iran's path to the bomb. >> if israeli prime minister benjamin netanyahu lists his allies on capitol hill including many powerful democrats, mr. obama could have trouble depending off efforts to

force a tougher stance by requiring congressional approval. but the deal already has enough safeguards. >> this deal is not based on trust. it is based on unprecedented verification. >> the white house is putting on a full-court press that includes vice president biden, chief of staff mcdone that and susan royce. they have a tough job ahead. >> they sure do. john, thank you so much for that in stark contrast israeli prime minister benjamin netanyahu is issuing stark warnings for the potential deal that as he says paves the way for a nuclear iran. pfpl mark it's good to have you on the broadcast. there seems to be some significant differences between the deal he sees and the parameters that were announced. first up the prime minister

said sanctions would be lifted almost immediately that. issue has not been finalized. secretary kerry said it would be a process over many months and dependent on iran implying. secondly, he said not a single nuclear facility would be shut down. but the key for the facility would no longer be able to enrich uranium at least 15 years. it would be cleared of all centrifuges. and finally, mark he said not a single centrifuge would be destroyed. those installed would be only the first generation model. so the question is prime minister netanyahu being completely honest about the framework? >> of course. and let's look at the facts. this framework allows iran to maintain a massive and huge

nuclear infrastructure. it allows them to maintain thousands of centrifuges working and enriching, to tomorrow to work on r&d on building next generation's centrifuges that will be faster. it doesn't dismantle a single nuclear facility in iran. those are all facts. you can read them in the agreement. the iranians have agreed to cosmetic concessions. but ultimately and fortunately this deal is a bad deal. it is moving in a very dangerous direction. and the hope is and i understand the hope one, this deal does not stop iran from getting a bomb. it could pave the way to get a bomb legally. they will have legitimacy with their program. we are concerned it will encourage other neighbors of

iran in the region the sunni states, encourage them to move up their own nuclear program. it won't be nonproliferation. it could be massive proliferation in the most dangerous region of the world. >> mark does the prime minister not have any faith in the inspections that are mandatory as part of this agreement? >> we have very little faith in inspections. and i don't think you should either alex. anyone who knows the history of inspections knows when you're dealing with a toe tal yann regime, an authoritarian regime, they have the ability to play games with inspectors. and i point to the history of that. whether you look at iraq iran, libya, syria, inspections were not effective because thor tear a yann regimes can play those games. in iran you have two documented

cases where they concealed two deals. they kept them secret. only after years did we discover they were there to exist. it's very dangerous. it is very thin ice to base your national security or our national security on the idea of inspections alone. >> mark what do you think is the alternative that could actually have been achieved in not the ideal but realistically? >> people say either accept this bad deal. and even proponents argue there are problems in the deal. or, i don't know, war with iran. we say there is a third path a third alternative. keep up the pressure on iran until you do get a better deal a deal that does significantly dismantle iran's nuclear infrastructure. we think there are matters not in the deal. there's the iran missile

program. they don't need those missiles for israel. they can already hit tel aviv. those long-range missiles are to reach north america. the deal does not also take care of iran's policy and behavior. iran calls for the destruction of my country. if iran wants to be treated like a normal country, it should start acting like a normal country. they have to say my country has arrived to exist. because as long as they say israel should be obliterated, israel should be destroyed israel is a cancer that needs to be removed, and i'm quoting directly from what eye rain a yann leaders said this week when they said israel's destruction is is not negotiable a regime like that can't have nuclear infrastructure. >> what is the plan for next three months? to work to get any deal possible or any deal scrapped?

>> my prime minister will make his case tomorrow to the american people and to the global community. hold out. don't sign a bad deal. everyone is very excited about an agreement. the goal isn't an agreement. it is to prevent iran from getting nuclear weapons. we believe this on the table now does not achieve that. i would remind you, alex a decade ago there was a huge celebration. finally there was a nuclear deal with new york. and many people celebrated that. just a few years later the north koreans had their first device. we don't want to see that with iran because they are much more dangerous than north korea. >> your point is well taken, sir. how would you characterize the

phone call on thursday? >> business like. my prime minister explained his position. we have a disagreement. we are very concerned this framework that was agreed to paves the path for the iranians to get a bomb. it leaves intact a formidable infrastructure. even if they don't cheat, this gives a path to the bomb that is just too quick. and we can't allow iran to maintain this very massive nuclear infrastructure and must demand they stop exploiting terrorism around the world. they have to stop this regional aggression. they are active in aggression in iraq sorry a ya, lebanon and

widely in yemen as well. of course for me they openly say my company has to be destroyed. now that has to change. we think it should demand -- like i said if they want to be treated as a normal country let's demand they start acting like a normal country. >> thank you so much. the video of this tirade went viral this week. now the detective is apologizing. you will hear from him coming up. married. i knew it'd take some time. and her sensitive stomach didn't make things easier. it was hard to know why... the move...her food...? so we tried purina cat chow gentle... ...because it's specially formulated for easy digestion. she's loved it ever since. and as for her and ben... ...she's coming around. purina cat chow gentle. one hundred percent complete and balanced for everyday feeding of adult cats. take zzzquil and sleep like... you haven't seen your bed in days.

economists were expecting 100,000 more. to make matters worse, january and february were revised downward. effectively ending a 12-month streak of over 200,000 jobs being added every month. that's really the psychological threshold. under 200,000, people start to feel shaky about the economic recovery. when you drill down faster fracking particularly hard hit. they lost 11,000 jobs in march alone. 30,000 since the beginning of the year. great question regarding wages. a slight uptick. concentrated around a narrow band of 2%. what's happening, though is the quit rate. people leaving their jobs is increasing, particularly in nacent industries. people say i can't afford to stay and get 2% if i leave i can get 12%. particularly young people. that's costly for companies. so the expectation is it will

force eventually wage growth. it's just a matter of when. okay. access point. whaepts the main takeaway from the new study on smartphones. >> they looked at smartphone usage by demographic. while 90 percent of americans have a smartphone 70% of particularly reliable on them. it is their sole means of connectivity. they don't readily have options to on to a desktop, laptop a tablet. that means if they are looking for a job, paying their taxes, banking, it is all done on their cell phone. that is prone to people not paying their bills more than a quarter of the team effectively shutting down their communications. it is just something everybody, especially with critical services, need to be mindful of. >> very much so. let's talk about spending plan in terms of easter.

what are the plans for that? the national retail federation is expecting over 16 billion. it is $140 per person. candy, flowers, the fashion front. anything yellow you probably noticed is selling. that is the "it" color for sure. when it runswarms up, there is a run on landscaping. people are clamoring to force spring to be. home depot and lowe's. >> i saw flowers in a vase on the way to work and got excited. more americans plotting to join isis. what's behind this potential homegrown terrorism. audible safety beeping audible safety beeping audible safety beeping

the latest arrest a a 30-year-old mother of two from philadelphia. ron allen is in studio with all the details. >> perhaps surprisingly, several suspects charged this week are women, planning to travel to turkey and syria. two women in new york planning to build and detonate a bomb. keeana thomas dressed in black, only her eyes visible. prosecutors say the 30-year-old mother of two bought a plane ticket to go join the terror group after being in touch nearly two years and exchanges dozens of electronic messages. if we truly knew the realities we all would be rush to go joan our brothers in the front lines, one tweet allegedly said. it follows the arrest of two women in new york city. asia siddiqui, 21. both u.s. citizens. neighbors were shocked. >> it's a scary feeling.

yeah. especially when you have children. it's a scary feeling. >> court documents said she did the not understand why people were traveling overseas to wage jihad when there were more opportunities of "pleasing allah" in the united states. two cousins stand accused of fighting for isis. army national guard specialist as he was about to board a plane. jonas edmonds was allegedly planning to attack a military using his cousin's uniform as a disguise. >> estimates put the incomes at 100 or so. the battle continues here at home. >> on many fronts that battle is being waged. thank you so much ron. president obama took a

victory lap for the deal inked the on thursday. this week together with allies and partners we reached a historic understanding with iran, which if fully implemented will prevent it from obtaining a nuclear weapon and make our country, our allies and world safer. joining me now is the "washington post" greg jaffe whose recent reporting brought us inside the white house for the high stakes talks. with a welcome to you, greg. how important is a deal personally for the president. >> i think it is really important. this is probably the sort of signature foreign policy achievement of his presidency if it plays out the way i think the white house hopes it will. >> knowing its style, how unique do you see this for the president to be so personally involved as described by your article? >> i think he is a president who tends to get on the details. it touched on a big issues for

him. he talked about the nuclear proliferation issue since he was a senator. so i think that's something he's passionate about. he sees the prospect of terrorists getting a nuclear weapon as an existential threat for the u.s. he said we need to be able to talk to our enemies. early in 2007 he was ridiculed a bit as naive by hillary clinton for saying that. there is a little personal pride, too, to prove that he can pull this off. >> in your article you talk about how he put down the george w. bush administration for freezing out enemies and not talk to go them. do you get a sense that is the foreign policy legacy accomplishment the president wants or just one he thinks he can get? >> i think this is one that he wants. this is not sitting there waiting for him. six years hard work on the part of the administration. today iran still refers to it as

the great satan. this is certainly something they wanted. >> what about the political stakes for the president? how do you see that? >> i think he will have a tough sell on the hill. the speech yesterday was the beginning of that. his message was the alternative to this and this is a point the white house has made repeatedly is war. so if you don't like this deal come up with something better or articulate something better. >> the white house sees iran as a stabilizing and is falling apart. >> that is more aspirational than reality at this point. i think the white house would say that as well. you do have largely a sectarian war, a sunni/shiite war. i think their hope is if you can

get them to play a more constructive role stop funding malicious in the way it has been, that maybe could be a stabilizing force. as sanctions lift iran has a lot more money and can use that to causality more trouble. >> we know all too well this congress can barely agree on what to order for lunch, let alone something of this incredible complexity and sensitivity. if a final deal is reached, what do you think the debate is going to look like in congress? >> you know it's impossible to know, as you just suggested right there. i do think one thing the president has got on his side is that this was a deal brokered by the entire international community. you have your partners russia and china. i think it's tricky for the republicans in congress or the opponents in congress to undo a deal in which not just the u.s. is invested but really all of

our allies. and even a couple of our countries like russia and china that are great partners that you wouldn't think of as an ally. >> thank you. appreciate it. >> sure. >> for more on the potential nuclear deal i am joined by stewart holiday. previously served as assistant secretary of state and special assistant to president george w. bush. with a welcome to you, sir. from the parameters that were laid out, do you think this was a good deal? >> i think it's not what everybody wanted. it has given both sides face. the iranians walk away with some of their nuclear capability intact. there is a dramatically reduced centrifuge capability and enrichment level which gives president obama the ability to point to specifics. again, it was important to sell it to congress to have very very specific points he would

make that would back up the case that was going to prevent them from getting a weapon. >> you likely heard a short while on the broadcast the trust factor here. iran's nuclear program came to light. there were a lot of stops and starts on potential agreements. but do you trust iran to follow through this time around? >> you knows the past is the best predictor of future behavior. unfortunately, i do have serious doubts. however, i do think if the kind of intrusive inspections that are spelled out, coupled with perhaps some sort of change within the next 10 to 15 years in the internal dynamics of the country, it does present an option that is better than the options that we've had. now netanyahu would argue, perhaps with some merit, there could be a better deal with the

sanctions were allowed to continue. that's what this is about. are we giving up pressure on this country in advance of any real concession? >> what about the current leadership in iran? is the president the change that he has been characterized as? >> he's somewhere in the middle. he wouldn't be the president of the country if he didn't have the support of the ayatollah. however, i think what you're looking at there, is he the kind of president that can allow there to be more popular participation in the society and to give a little bit of a valve that would allow this generation of iranians who have only known america as this abstract great satan. they have exposure to television shows, american culture, they're on the internet. they are beginning to question

what they hear and see. >> let's take a listen to secretary talk to go andrea mitchell right after the press conference on thursday. let's listen to that. >> what we've done is open up the opportunity. we have a chance now to work with congress to answer questions to look at this carefully and negotiate it out and seal the deal. >> the word "promise there," is that realistic? do you think the u.s. is past the point of walking away that promises have in fact been made? >> well promises have been made, but they are conditional. they are conditional upon this final agreement that will be reached in june. they are conditional in the united states, of course. perhaps on what congress -- what legislation is passed. now, you know it was pointed out there are five countries involved. it's going to be hard to walk away from this. it's a framework agreement. >> what do you think happens if

this final deal falls through? >> i think unfortunately you'll have a continuation of what we have seen in the past. kind of a hardening in iran of the position there. but neither side really has the opportunity to kind of give up on this wholesale. you'll have a containment strategy put in place by the united states. intercepting, you know the kinds of equipment, materials that could be used to create a nuclear bomb making capability. it would go back to that kind of combined security and sanctions regime instead of this path of cooperation. >> all right. stewart holiday, many thanks for your time. >> thank you. he was caught on camera berating an uber driver. now he is speaking out for the first time about what happened. but what does he have to say for himself? and then i saw him slowly coming down the aisle. one of those guys who just can't stop talking. i was downloading a movie. i was trying to download a movie. i have verizon. i don't. i get that little spinning wheel.

senator robert menendez of new jersey is fighting to clear his name after being indicted on 14 criminal counts. on the eve of his indictment the democratic senator stopped short of calling the justice department case against him a smear campaign. >> i'm angry because prosecutors at the justice department don't know the difference between friendship and corruption. and have chosen to twist my duties as a senator and my friendship into something that is improper. they are dead wrong. and i am confident that they

will be proven so. >> joining me is a congressional reporter for "the washington post." good to see you. >> good to see you. >> you have cover odcongress for a long time. is a friendship or corruption? how much latitude can a senator have when it comes to having friends? will his argument stand up in the courts? >> they seem to think it will in some respects because they may have more information about some of these charges that will lead to their dismissal. the problem is not too many friends, especially in public life, you know, hop on private planes get hotel rooms paid for them. and call up heads of federal agencies and try to work favor said. first they'll have to do is prove these men have been friends for long time. and then they'll have to show that doing that is somehow acceptable. but, look menendez has been

pretty insistent for the last two years, and especially this week he's done wrong here. what i think is notable is how much the new jersey democratic party and the national democratic party really have united around him. i think there's a risk in doing that. but, you know i think at least here in washington, the argument is he has temporarily stepped down from his position as the number one democrat on the foreign relations committee. you know they feel he can at least continue on for now. and we'll see what this case -- where this case goes and whether all the charges stick. >> this will be interesting. let's switch gears to the bash lash over indiana's religious freedom law. earlier in the week jeb bush said there was a misunderstand misunderstanding of the law. this i suspect is nothing to please conservatives. does it help him with moderates? >> a few things on this.

first off, i caution that flip-flop might be too strong. part of the reason i was with him in atlanta last month when he was asked generally about religious freedom laws. because in georgia, at the time they were considering one as well. it has since stalled in their legislate. and the answer he gave in atlanta was similar to the one he gave at silkenicon valley. he said there has to be a balance between protecting both sides. he was arguing there is a supreme court case coming that will legalize same sex marnl. we have to be conscious of those that are opposed to this or may not yet be there and not do business with them. what he did do definitely was strongly support mike pence on monday. and then sort of back track a little bit and say perhaps he should have done things a little differently on wednesday. if you really read through everything he has said he is arguing there should be a balance.

i think what was really the out liar was more of what he said on that radio program on monday than all the other statements he said about this. will it hurt him? probably. i know there was already concern among evangelicals. there was also a lot of criticism slung at the indiana governor for back tracking. this is a major problem for republicans. there is no real easy way for them to deal with this. you have to balance the concerns of a big chunk of their party with the fact they're going to have to win a general election. most americans now are okay with same sex marriage. >> good to see you. that's a wrap of this hour of with me. next
