8:00 am
good morning everyone. i'm tamron hall and this is "newsnation." within the hour hillary clinton will take part in her first event since announcing she's running for president. she'll attend a small private meeting in iowa. then hold her first official campaign event this afternoon. an educational round table at kirkwood community college in montecello. it is the beginning of what will be a series of smaller more intimate campaign events all part of clinton's low key strategy designed to emphasize personal connections with voters in a state where she finished third back in 2008 in the primary. then clinton arrived in iowa last night wrapping up her mysterious two day road trip. the only evidence of the journey came from images from stops including one in chipotle in ho
8:01 am
where she went unrecognized until she was spotted on a security camera. all of this is part of this low key strategy. this morning we are learning her fundraising operation will take the same approach as the associated press puts it clinton's initial appeals for money will be for small dollar donations collected over the internet instead of in swanky fundraising blow outs in new york, l.a. and silicon valley. alex sites walls joins us from montecello montecello. let's talk about this ap report and what we've learned on the fundraising strategy that's laid out here. >> reporter: tamron, what i've heard from donors to clinton is that it's going to be a decentralized approach. instead of having a physical of glitzy events in new york l.a. san francisco, the typical atm srk for democrats, she's going to have lots of events all across the country and with surrogates mostly representing her instead of herself there. they're going to do a ton of these right away to make sure the campaign has money.
8:02 am
this is going to occupy a lot of their time until may when she will do a big rally to kick off officially the more traditional part of the campaign. >> let's talk about the next few tase and what's planned, including what will take place on wednesday. >> reporter: that's right. first today she's going to meet with seven students and educators in what is essentially an auto body shop where they train mechanics. it will last about an hour it was invitation only and the campaign worked with the community college to select those students they will have a chance to ask questions and to you know hear from clinton a bit. tomorrow she will be doing a similar event outside of des moines at a small business that sells fruits and will talk to small business owners. similar event, very small, very tightly scripted and they're going to give her a chance to interact with voters in an informal setting before that big may rollout as i mentioned. >> we get the strategy but it is interesting and we'll talk about marco rubio in a second but senator rubio making the media
8:03 am
rounds, rand paul is it did the same as did ted cruz after their announcement. different name recognition with hillary clinton but what kind of access will the media have to these intimate events that she has planned? >> that's a great question and it's going to be a big challenge for her throughout this campaign. she attracts so much attention, has basically 100% name recognition. she's going to have to fly under the radar a little bit. as we've seen she took off on this road trip without alerting the press until she was already underway. there's doing pool reporting, you have representatives from various media outlets but a small select group going with her this morning and to other events then they have tightly restricted access to these larger events relatively larger events today and tomorrow. we expect that that's going to continue. it's an effort to radically contrast with how she approached the state in 2007. then she flew around the state in a helicopter she had these big rallies and large events.
8:04 am
they're trying to throw that out the window and get her interacting with voters outside the media glare. >> thank you very much alec for those details. while hillary clinton begins her campaign in iowa senator marco rubio is back this washington, d.c. returning to capitol hill less than a day after making his official 2016 announcement in miami. the florida republican is scheduled to attend a meeting of the foreign relations committee which is considering legislation having to do with the nuclear deal with iran. senator rubio is now the fourth major candidate to enter the race and at 43 he's also now the youngest. as he launched his campaign yesterday at miami's historic freedom tower the senator put an emphasis on his groout drawing sharp contrast to hillary clinton and his republican mentor, jeb bush who is expected of course to jump into the race. >> before us now is the opportunity to author the greatest chapter yet in the amazing story of america. but we can't do that by being back to the leaders and ideas of
8:05 am
the past. we must change the decisions we are making by changing the people who are making them. >> and ms nbc political correspondent casey hunt spoke to thart rubio had morning as he was leaving miami. casey, thanks for your time here. it's interesting all of the references to the past and the old, some people have been quick to point to hillary clinton, but a lot of what we heard from senator rubio would apply to jeb bush as well. >> reporter: good morning, tamarind tamarind. that's the case and that's the elephant so to speak looming over rubio's early campaigning here in miami where this city is basically split on the question of whether they should support rubio who is their up and coming tea party favorite in 2010 or jeb bush who is their former governor. i think that this is ultimately the first day that rubio is going to have to start answering serious questions about his campaign, seeing as he is now an official candidate.
8:06 am
i can asked him this our interview how he would stand up to the vetting process that will come with the presidential spotlight. >> i've always said that eventually that will not be the permanent policy of the united states, it will have to come to an end at some point. i hope it comes to an end because we've reformed our immigration laws we've improved the way we enforce our immigration laws. so that future illegal immigration is under control and, third, we've been able to accommodate those people that have been in this country for a long period of time especially the young people. at some point daca is going to have to end there's no doubt about it. >> reporter: damn ran, sorry, that was my question to him about immigration policy. i asked him whether or not he would repeal that program that allows young immigrants to stay here in the country if their parents brought them here when he was young. he said that he wouldn't repeal it right away. i actually put that came question to jeb bush in iowa a couple months ago when he was campaigning there and bush refused to even go that far, all he would say that the overall
8:07 am
law in the country needs to be changed. he wouldn't commit to allowing that obama executive order to stay in place and allow those kids to stay in the country eel alley. >> casey hunt thank you very much. great interview. we will be playing more of it throughout the day. joining me ms nbc political analyst and former rnc chairman michael steel and from the daily beast columnist michael tomaski. michael, let me start with you, your headline is hillary must go about i go to win. the day after the announcement we saw ted cruz, rand paul, marco rubio had morning with casey hunt as well as on the today show do these big morning show interviews. hillary clinton we got a glimpse of her at chipotle and maybe we might get a photograph out of one of these intimate meetings today. how do you judge this strategy? >> my idea of going big was policy particularly economic policy talking about wage
8:08 am
stagnation inequality and all that stuff. >> you have to be on a show interviewed to talk about the policy. >> exactly. i can prettiel well guarantee you she's not going to go very well big in those regards. this is shaping up as being what she did in 1999 and 2000 when she ran for the senate. that was race i covered closely, i went to a lot of those events and the media were kept at arm's length. every once in awhile she did a q & a, took four or five questions, but she didn't need it. she thought it's more important to go talk to people than to talk to the press and that was her calculation then and it looks like her calculation now. >> you wrote in your article when the coverage is so intensely personality focused as it will be with clorn it sets up a reality in which the media are waiting for her to crack, to break, perched for the moment of downfall. listen, i think that could apply to any earn approximate, you heard casey hunt talk to senator rubio about whether or not he's
8:09 am
ready to be vetted and some of the things that would perhaps come up there. with hillary clinton the small person strategy may be a contrast and may turn out to be effective. to your point about policy and some of the tee contribution things that people want to hear from her, the press is the conduit, the media is a part of getting that message out through interviews and i'm not just saying the today show but beyond a small intimate room where someone might tweet out what you said. >> i think she just -- probably feels that she doesn't need to introduce herself to people in the way that marco rubio and rand paul have to introduce themselves to people. once she does have a policy ideas i think she will start doing more of those interviews. >> chairman steel let me bring you in on this. speaking of vetting some of the things that people will be called out for this issue with immigration and what to do moving forward. senator rubio willing to as casey hunt pointed out go forward in explaining where he stands with a program to help kids who were brought to this done true through no fault of
8:10 am
their own going farther than jeb bush would when she interviewed him. it seems that he is prepared for some of these questions that others have stumbled out of the gate with. >> he is but you also have to keep in behind on the subject of immigration that he was once the leader on that and then backed away from it. now he's got to redefine in some respects reassert himself in that conversation. he's got to answer to his conservative base, you know how much are you going to fight for what we value and what we want to see done and juxtapose that against the broader national conversation that includes obviously a lot of hispanics who have a very different view than a lot of republicans about how to deal with those immigrants who are already here. so he's trying to find that sweet spot if you will so that he can reestablish the conversation and then you watch the others engage him on that that's going to be very interesting and i think very telling, particularly with someone like jeb bush. >> speaking of jeb bush let me play what senator rubio said on
8:11 am
the today show this morning when asked about their relationship. >> obviously governor bush is going to be a strond candidate with his own set of ideas, i think people will lynn to those ideas an be impressed but i feel at this moment i'm best positioned to lead this country into the 21st century. rel remain friends in this process. >> if you are a fly on the wall and jeb bush was watching the today show this morning and some of these other interviews with senator rubio what are thinking. >> he's watches his mentee grow up. i think that, you yeah marco says we will remain friends but they will be gritting teeth. they're going to have to distinguish themselves one from the other. one of them has to emerge as the standard bearer with florida in their pocket and i just -- that's going to be an interesting battle i think. that's the sub text of which is going to be written every day by those campaigns one against the other.
8:12 am
you throw into that tapran the mix of a ted cruz and rand paul and mike huckabee and others this is going to create and add to the tension between the two of them i think. >> absolutely. and, michael let me bring you back in on what we've learned about this fundraising strategy with hillary clinton. according to the associated press advisors have set a modest goal of raising $100 million for the primary campaign and will not initially accept dough nations for the general election. using that small donor energy when she does talk about the support she can use that line that we heard often from the current president about these small dollars that are coming in from people who don't have a lot, but still believe that that candidate. >> yeah. seems a smart strategy to me and it might help erase this idea of the clintons as these big money people her giving these big money spreechs and everything that's tied to the foundation
8:13 am
and thoul those stories. you know it's just a lot better than having a lot of news stories about her spending time in new york and hollywood and chicago and san francisco with a bunch of rich people. >> michael, what do you think of the strategy? eventually she will end u7 like the other candidates with those rich people. >> i think it's actually very smart and i think that she and you will probably see a lot of other candidates as well have learned from what barack obama did. you can go and take the $38,000 from, you know a top donor, but when you've got 100,000 people giving you 100 bucks or 50 bucks, that has a powerful message behind it and i think that this idea for hillary clinton right now especially tamran is to show that she is of by and from the people supported by them in a big way and this i think is a smart strategy to help her launch out of that gate. she's going to take the big money because it's going to be there. >> they all will. >> exactly. those small dollars will help a
8:14 am
lot. >> greatly appreciate it gentleman. the tulsa volunteer reserve deputy who shot and killed a man by accident has turned himself in just moments ago, he is facing charges and you no the victim's family is questioning the deputy's close connections to the sheriff and whether he was a, quote, pay to play policeman. today top senate democrats and republicans are nearing a deal that would allow congress to review any nuclear agreement with iran. and a committee vote could come in just a few hours. its a part of our first read for you today. plus this. >> there was something stuck in the wheel well of a car is what the pounding sounded like. that was his pounding to get the plane to stop. >> an airport worker in seattle wakes up in the plane's cargo hold. pleading for help. how did he get there in the first place? it's one of the stories we are following around the "newsnation." and you can join our conversation online you can find the team @"newsnation" on twitter and you can find me on

8:18 am
. developing now, tulsa county reserve deputy robert bates has just turned himself into police bates is accused of shooting and killing eric harris dund during an undercover string on april 2nd. there are new questions this morning surrounding the shooting as bates now faces a second degree manslaughter charge in harris' death, the charge came yesterday just hours after harris' family blasted the investigation, questioning whether bates has receiving special treatment from sheriff stanley glanz and asking why a wealthy 7 three-year-old insurance executive serving as a volunteer was even involved in an undercover sting operation. our affiliate in tulsa confirmed
8:19 am
bates donated more man $2,000 to the sheriff's dee election campaign and gave the department vehicles and equipment. >> if he had as much training as he supposedly had, he would definitely know a .357 from a taser. >> with me now is donald smolen the attorney for the harris family. donald, thank you for joining us. >> my pleasure. >> let me first just quickly play here what the sheriff -- i will read what the sheriff says regarding giving bates special treatment. he said their friendship did not lead to any special treatment. as you well know initially last week the sheriff's office defended bates saying that he committed no crime and noting that the officers chasing harris can good reason to fear that he was armed. what is your reaction now to
8:20 am
these details that have come out about how much money this man had given to the department? >> well i think it's disturbing. i think it's -- it's telling that this is how individuals that are 73 years old go about getting on special task force here in tulsa. >> i know the family has described this as pay for play. what do they mean by that? >> well it's entirely inappropriate for a 7 three-year-old reserve deputy to be involved in this kind of undercover string operation. the only explanation for why he was allowed to be involved is the significant amount of contributions that he makes to the stanley glance campaign and sheriff's department. >> we just got video this -- i'm
8:21 am
sorry, sir, we just got this video in of about mr. bates turns himself into authorities. as we look at this video that's come in here in addition to the family's concerns about mr. bates and whether he should have even been a part of this sting, there are questions about what was overheard on the tape, including when mr. harris indicated that he was struggling to breathe, the family has said he was treated inn humanly and maliciously. >> right. i mean you can clearly hear mr. harris informing the deputies that he can't breathe, that he's having trouble breathing. this was after he has been shot. this is after he had several deputies on his chest and his face and then you hear the expletives from the sheriffs which is almost even more concerning regarding their refusal to provide him medical treatment that he so clearly needed. >> again, bates is charged with second degree manslaughter.
8:22 am
what would you and the family like to see happen next given the other concerns regarding how the others near the scene handled mr. harris? >> well i think the family would like to see the tulsa county sheriff's department stepping up to the plate, participating in what they've described to be a transparent investigation, providing the training documentation that we've requested over and over again, that would support any kind of notion that mr. bates was qualified to participate in this type of operation. >> and last before i let you go i do want to read another quote from the sheriff in an interview he gave with the local tulsa paper about mr. fwats he said quote, he made an error. how many errors are made in an operating room every week? your response to that. >> my response would be that it's entirely inappropriate to try and compare this scenario to
8:23 am
a garden variety type of medical malpractice case. this is far more egregious than a mistake made in an operating room. this is something that never should have happened it should never happen again and this type of activity needs to be stopped. >> thank you so much for your time. we greatly appreciate it today. >> thank you. developing now it's been six days of deliberations in the aaron hernandez murder trial. 36 hours still no verdict. some legal analysts are asking if this could be a ms. trial. we will have the latest in a live report next. details about indiana's $2 had million plan to restore its reputation in the wake of religious freedom controversy. it is one of the stories we thought you should know this morning. how much protein does your dog food have? 18 percent? 20? purina one true instinct has 30. active dogs crave nutrient-dense food. so we made purina one true instinct. learn more at purinaone.com

8:27 am
are now in their sixth day of deliberations. they've deliberated for almost 30 hours since getting the case last week and have sent several notes not judge, but then have been about the murder charge he's facing. he has pleaded not guilty to the 2013 killing of his friend odin lloyd and joining me criminal attorney former prosecutor michael greek co who has represented a number of celebrities. >> thanks for having me. >> the defense said the prosecution had not proven the case, we know no murder weapon was found, there was no eyewitness. you do have that surveillance video that prosecutors tried to link to the crime itself but no smoking gun here. what do you feel is happening now that we're in this sixth day? >> the jurors are putting together a puzzle and it's a very difficult pudsel to put together now the defense has pretty much admitted that aaron hernandez was on the scene at the time of the shooting but that he was simply a witness. the prosecution has no motive they presented no motive to the
8:28 am
jury and the jury is going lynn, this guy just signed a $40 million all right can contract why would this guy go and kill somebody and ruin his entire life? it's a purely circumstantial case, i can imagine it's pretty difficult. we're getting into deep hours on deliberations. >> people often thee rise who has the advantage when a jury deliberates this long we looked at some of the high profile deliberations, george zimmerman 16 hours, jodi arias 15 hours, robert blake was 35 hours and he was a kwatsed all of those cases were acquitted except for jodi arias. do you read anything in the tea leaves of the time? >> no. lynn, this is a lot of information to process. you're talking about, again, a purely circumstantial case and weeks and weeks of evidence. i applaud the jury for taking its time they haven't sent any questions back about the actual murder charges which i don't think we can read into that as well. i think they're methodically
8:29 am
going through this. there could be there's one rogue juror that has dug their heels in the sand and if that's the case they can tell the judge that they're deadlocked. >> we'll continue to follow the developments out of boston and of course when we get word if there is a verdict we will bring it to our audience. thank you so much. >> thanks for having me. we've just learned that rita wilson the wife of tom hanks has breast cancer the latest on what she is say publicly. president obama will soon become just the fourth american president to visit all 50 states. what's on the list? the state that he has wret to travel to we're going to tell you coming up in the things we just thought you should know.

8:33 am
capitol hill today. in a few hours the senate foreign relations committee will take it up then is expected to vote on chairman bob corker's bill which would require congressional approval for any final deal with iran. on morning joe this morning senator corker said a bipartisan agreement has been reached on revisions to the bill. but did not give details. ahead of the committee's vote secretary of state john kerry is back on capitol hill right now for a second straight day. he is giving members of congress classified briefings on the preliminary deal reached with iran. a new complication today, russian president vladimir putin approved supplying iran with a missile defense system. joining knee nbc's senior political editor mark murray. there could be indications they have enough votes to override the president's threatened veto. >> it looks like the bipartisan legislation ended up getting even more support. my colleague frank thorp is
8:34 am
reporting on capitol hill there should seem to be a deal that now has been reached with republicans like senator foreign relations chairman bob corker along with democratic colleagues. some of the language has been changed regarding iran and terrorism, as well as on the review process. and the thinking is that that's actually going to create a majority that will be veto proof. this all tamron plays at some of the tensions that are going on. congress wants to be able to have a say so in this iran deal while the administration is saying please don't do anything that's going to jeopardize this deal from being finalized in june. that's the tensions that are playing. it will be interesting to see if the white house is okay with some of these changes that were made with democratic help. >> let's talk about john kerry being on capitol hill. day two of this. is he making any progress? >> i think the bigger development is this deal that
8:35 am
was stuck by benn corker. the white house has been having a huge blitz, but the question is is this a blitz completely against any type of deal or are they trying to make this legislation more palatable to them. the administration really doesn't want to weaken its hand as it still has three months to go to have a final deal with iran. >> let's talk about this move by russian president vladimir putin regarding supplying this this missile defense system to iran is this and this is one of the complications. a lot of people -- and there were no folks in the obama administration who were spiking the football after getting that preliminary framework with iran and the other western countries along with china and russia but the longer this plays out and if the final situation isn't going to be done until union, that just gives opponents more time to use current events and other things to try to sink the bill. so that's what the administration's real challenge is. getting that framework was one thing, getting it to the finish
