multiple jobs to make ends meet you see the top 25 hedge fund managers making more than all of america's kindergarten teachers combined and often paying a lower tax rate. [ boos ] so you have to wonder -- when does my hard work pay off? when does my family get ahead? when? i say now. [ cheers and applause ] prosperity just can't be for ceos and hedge fund managers. democracy can't be just for billionaires and corporation ss. prosperity and democracy are part of your basic bargain, too.

you brought our country back now it's time your time, to secure the gains and move ahead. and you know what? america can't succeed unless you succeed. [ cheers and applause ] that is why i am running for president of the united states. [ cheers and applause ] [ crowd chanting "hillary" ] >> here on roosevelt island, i believe we have a continuing

rendezvous with destiny. each american and the country we cherish. i'm running to make our economy work for you and for every american. for the successful and the struggling. for the innovators and inventors. for those breaking barriers in technology and discovering cures for diseases. for the factory workers and food servers who stand on their feet all day. [ cheers and applause ] for the nurses who work the night shift. [ cheers and applause ] for the truckers who drive for hours and the farmers who feed us. [ cheers and applause ] for the veterans who served our country. [ cheers and applause ] for the small business owners who took a risk. for everyone who's ever been knocked down but refused to be

knocked out. [ cheers and applause ] i'm not running for some americans, but for all americans. [ cheers and applause ] our country's challenges didn't begin with the great recession and they won't end with the recovery. for decades, americans have been buffeted by powerful currents. advances in technology and the rise of global trade have created whole new areas of economic activity and opened new markets for our exports, but they have also displaced jobs and undercut wages for millions of americans. the financial industry and many multinational corporations have created huge wealth for a few. by focusing too much on short-term profit and too little

on long-term value. too much on complex trading schemes and stock buybacks too little on investments in new businesses jobs and fair compensation. [ cheers and applause ] our political system is so paralyzed by gridlock and dysfunction that most americans have lost confidence that anything can actually get done. and they've lost trust in the ability of both government and big business to change course. now, we can make historic forces beyond our control for some of this. but the choices we've made as a nation -- leaders and citizens alike -- have also played a big role. our next president must work with congress and every other willing partner across our entire country.

and i will do just that to -- [ cheers and applause ] to turn the tide so these currents start working for us more than against us. at our best, that's what americans do -- we're problem solvers, not deniers. we don't hide from change we harness it. but we can't do that if we go back to the top-down economic policies that failed us before. americans have come too far to see our progress ripped away. now, there may be some new voices in the presidential republican choir. [ laughter ] but they're all singing the same old song. a song called "yesterday."

[ cheers and applause ] you know the one, "all our troubles look as though they're here to stay." [ laughter ] and we need a place to hide away. [ laughter ] they believe in yesterday. and you're lucky i didn't try singing that too, i'll tell you. these republicans trip over themselves promising lower taxes for the wealthy and fewer rules for the biggest corporations without regard for how that will make income inequality even worse. we've heard this tune before and we know how it turns out. as many of these candle date -- ask many of these candidates about climate change one of the defining threats of our time -- [ applause ] and they'll say "i'm not a

scientist." [ laughter ] well, then why don't they start listening to those who are? [ cheers and applause ] they pledge to wipe out tough rules on wall street rather than rein in the banks that are still too risky, courting future failures in a case that can only be considered mass amnesia. they want to take away health insurance for more than 16 million americans without any credible alternative. [ boos ] they shame and blame women rather than respect our right to make our own reproductive health decisions. [ cheers and applause ] they want to put immigrants who

work hard and pay taxes at risk of deportation and they turn their backs on gay people who love each other. [ cheers and applause ] fundamentally, they reject what it takes to build an inclusive economy. it takes an inclusive society. [ cheers and applause ] what i once called a village that has a place for everyone. now, my values and a lifetime of experiences have given me a different vision for america. i believe that success isn't measured by how much the wealthiest americans have but by how many children climb out of

poverty. [ cheers and applause ] how many startups and small businesses open and thrive. how many young people go to college without drowning in debt. [ cheers and applause ] how many people find a good job. how many families get ahead and stay ahead. i didn't learn this from politics. i learned it from my own family. my mother taught me that everybody needs chance and a champion. she knew what it was like not to have either one. her own parents abandoned her, and by 14 she was out on her own working as a house maid. years later, when i was old enough to understand i asked what kept her going. you know what her answer sfwhuz

something very simple. kindness from someone who believed she mattered. the first grade teacher who saw she had nothing to eat at lunch and without embarrassing her brought extra food to share. the woman whose house she cleaned letting her go to high school so long as her work got done. that was a bargain she leapt to accept. and because some people believed in her, she believed in me. [ cheers and applause ] that's why i believe with all my heart in america and in the potential of every american to meet every challenge, to be resilient no matter what the world throws at you, to solve the toughest problems.

i believe we can do all these things because i've seen it happen. as a young girl i signed up at my methodist church to baby it is the children of mexican farm workers while their parents worked in the fields on the weekends. and later as a law student i advocated for congress to require better working and living conditions for farm workers whose children deserves better opportunities. [ cheers and applause ] my first job out of law school was for the children's defense fund. i walked door to door to find out how many children with disabilities couldn't go to school and to help build the case for a law guaranteeing them access to education. as a leader of the legal services corporation, i defended the right of poor people to have

a lawyer and i saw lives changed because an abusive marriage ended or an illegal eviction stopped. in arkansas, i supervised law students who represented clients in courts and prisons, organized scholarships for single parents going to college, led efforts for better schools and health care and personally knew the people whose lives were improved. as senator, i have the honor of representing brave firefighters police officers emts, construction workers and volunteers who ran toward danger on 9/11 and stayed there becoming sick themselves. it took years of effort but congress finally approved the health care they needed.

there are so many faces and stories that i carry with me of people who gave their best and then needed help themselves. just weeks ago i met another person like that a single mom juggling a job and classes at community college while raising three kids. she doesn't expect anything to come easy. but she did ask me what more can be done so it isn't quite so hard for families like hers. i want to be her champion and your champion. [ cheers and applause ] if you'll give me the chance i'll wage and win four fights for you. the first is to make the economy work for everyday americans, not just those at the top.

[ cheers and applause ] to make the middle-class mean something again with rising incomes and broader horizons and to give the poor a chance to work their way into it. [ cheers and applause ] the middle-class needs more growth and more fairness. growth and fairness go together. for lasting prosperity you can't have one without the other. is this possible in today's world? i believe it is or i wouldn't be standing here. [ cheers and applause ] do i think it will be easy? of course not. [ laughter ] but here's the good news -- there are allies for change everywhere who know we can't stand by while inequality increases, wages stagnate and the promise of america dims. we should welcome the support of

all americans who want to go forward together with us. [ cheers and applause ] there are public officials who know americans need a better deal. business leaders who want higher pay for employees, equal pay for women and -- [ cheers and applause ] -- and no discrimination against lgbt community, either. [ cheers and applause ] there are leaders of finance who want less short-term trading and more long-term investing. there are union leaders who are investing their own pension nunds putting people to work to build tomorrow's economy. we need everyone to come to the table and work with us in the coming weeks. i'll propose specific policies to reward businesses who invest

in long-term value rather than the quick buck. because that leads to higher growth for the economy, higher wages for workers and, yes, bigger profits. everybody will have a better time. i will rewrite the tax code so it rewards hard work and investments here at home, the not quick trades or stashing profits overseas. [ cheers and applause ] i will give new incentives to companies that give their employees a fair share of the profits their hard work earns. [ cheers and applause ] we will unleash a new generation of entrepreneurs and small business owners by providing tax relief cutting red tape and making it easier to get a small business loan. we will restore america to the cutting edge of innovation science, and research by

increasing both public and private investments. [ cheers and applause ] and we will make america the clean energy superpower of the 21st century. [ cheers and applause ] developing renewable power, wind solar, advanced biofuels building cleaner power plants smarter electric grids, greener buildings, using additional fees and royalties from fossil fuel extraction to protect the environment and ease is transition for distressed communities to a more diverse and sustainable economicfucher from coal country to indian company to small towns from the mississippi delta to the rio grande valley to our inner cities we have to help our fellow americans.

[ cheers and applause ] now, this will create millions of jobs and countless new businesses and enable america to lead the global fight against climate change. [ cheers and applause ] we will also connect workers to their jobs and businesses. customers will have a better chance to actually get where they need and get what they desire with roads, railways bridges, airports ports, and broadband brought up to global standards for the 21st century. we will establish an infrastructure bank and sell bonds to pay for some of these improvements. now, building an economy for tomorrow also requires investing in our most important asset, our people beginning with our

youngest. that's why i will propose that we make pre-school and quality child care available to every child in america [ cheers and applause ] and i want you to remember this because to me this is absolutely the most compelling argument why we should do this. research tells us how much early learning in the first five years of life can impact success. in fact, 80% of your brain is developed by age three and one thing i've learned is that talent is universal. you can find it anywhere, is but opportunity is not. [ cheers and applause ] too many of our kids never have the chance to learn and thrive as they should and as we need them to.

our country won't be competitive or fair if we don't help more families give their kids the best possible start in life. so let's staff our primary and secondary schools with teachers who are second-to-none in the world and steph respect they deserve for sparking the love of learning in every child. [ cheers and applause ] let's make college affordable and available to all and lift the crushing burden of student debt. let's provide life long learning for workers to gain or improve skills that the economy requires setting up many more americans for success. now, the second fight is to strengthen america's families. because when our families are strong america is strong. and today's families face new and unique pressures. parents need more support and

flexibility to do their job at work and at home. i believe you should have the right to earn paid sick days. [ cheers and applause ] i believe you should receive your work schedule with enough notice to arrange child care or take college courses to get ahead. [ cheers and applause ] i believe you should look forward to retirement with confidence, not anxiety. that you should have the peace of mind that your health care will be there when you need it without breaking the bank. [ cheers and applause ] i believe we should offer paid family leave. [ cheers and applause ] so no one, no one has to choose between keeping a paycheck and caring for a new baby or a sick

relative. and it is way past time to end the outrage of so many women still earning less than men on the job. [ cheers and applause ] and women of color often making even less. this isn't a women's issue, it's a family issue. just like raising the minimum wage is a family issue. expanding child care is a family issue. declining marriage rates is a family issue. the unequal rates of incarceration is a family issue. [ cheers and applause ] . helping more people with an addiction or mental health problem get help is a family issue. [ cheers and applause ]

in america, every family should feel like they belong so we should offer hard-working law-abiding immigrant families a path to citizenship. [ cheers and applause ] not second-class status. and we should ban discrimination against lgbt americans and their families so they can live learn, marry, and work just like everybody else. [ cheers and applause ] you know america's diversity, our openness our devotion to human rights and freedom is what's drawn so many to our shores. what's inspired people all over the world. i know. i've seen it with my own eyes. and these are also the qualities that prepare us well for the

demands of a world that's more interconnected than ever before. so we have a third fight. to harness all of america's power, smarts and values. to maintain our leadership for peace, security and prosperity. no other country on earth is better positioned to thrive in the 21st century. no other country is better equipped to meet traditional threats from countries like russia north korea and iran and to deal with the rise of new powers like china. no other country is better prepared to meet emerging threats from cyber attacks, transnational terror networks like isis and diseases that spread across oceans and continents. as your president, i'll do whatever it takes to keep americans safe.

[ cheers and applause ] and if you look over my left shoulder you can see the new world trade center soaring skyward. [ cheers and applause ] as a senator from new york i dedicated myself to getting our city and state the help we needed to recover and as a member of the arms services committee, i work to maintain the best-trained, best equipped strongest military ready for today's threats and tomorrow's and when our brave men and women come home from war and finish their service, i'll see to it that they get not just the thanks of a grateful nation but the care and benefits they've earned. [ cheers and applause ] i've stood up to adversaries like putin and reinforced allies

like israel and nifsz the situation room on the day we got bin laden. [ cheers and applause ] but i know we have to be smart as well as strong. meeting today's global challenges requires every element of america's power including skillful diplomacy, economic influence and building partnerships to improve lives around the world with people not just their governments. there are a lot of trouble spots in the world but there's a lot of good news out there, too. i believe the future holds far more opportunities than threats if we exercise creative and confident leadership that enables us to shape global events rather than be shaped by them. and we all know that in order to be strong in the world we first have to be strong at home.

that's why we have to twin fourth flight -- reforming our government and revitalizing our democracy so that it works for every day americans. [ cheers and applause ] we have to stop the endless flow of secret unaccountable money that is distorting our elections, corpus christiing our political process and drowning out the voices of our people. we need justices on to be supreme court who will protect every citizen's right to vote. [ cheers and applause ] rather than every corporation's right to buy elections. [ cheers and applause ] if necessary, i will support a constitutional amendment to undue the supreme court's

decision in citizens united. [ cheers and applause ] i want to make it easier for every citizens right to vote. that's why i propose expanded early voting. i'll fight back against republican efforts to disempower and disenfranchise young people poor people people with disabilities and people of color. [ cheers and applause ] what part of democracy are they afraid of? but no matter how easy we make it to vote we still have to give americans something worth voting for. government is never going to have all the answers but it has to be smarter, simpler, more efficient and a better partner.

that means access to advance technology so government agencies can more effectively serve their customers, the american people. we need expertise and innovation from the private sector to help cut waste and streamline services. there's so much that works in america america. for every problem we face, somewhere, someone in america is solving it. silicon valley cracked the code on scaling and sharing a while ago. i want to help washington catch up. to do that. we need a political system that produces results by solving problems that hold us back not one overwhelmed by extreme partisanship and inflexibility. now, i'll always seek common ground with friend and opponent

alike. but i'll also stand my ground when i must. that's something i did when i was senator and secretary of state, whether it was working to improve our foster care and adoption system or pass a treaty to reduce the number of russian nuclear warheads that could threaten our cities and it's somethingly always do as your president. we americans may differ bicker stumble and fall but we are at our best when we pick each other up, when we have each other's back. like any family our american family is strongest when we cherish what we have in common and fight back against those who would drive us apart. people all over the world have ask me -- how could you and president obama work together after you fought so hard against

each other in that long campaign? now, that is an understandable question considering that in many places if you lose an election you could get imprisoned or exiled even killed, not hired as secretary of state. [ cheers and applause ] but president obama asked me to serve and i accepted because we both love our country. [ cheers and applause ] that's how we do it in america, with that same spirit together we can win these four fights. we can build an economy where hard work is rewarded. we can strengthen our families. we can defend our country and increase our opportunities all over the world and we can renew the promise of our democracy if

we all do our part in our families and our businesses unions houses of worship, schools, and yes, in the voting booth. i want you to join me in this effort. help me build this campaign and make it your own. talk to your friends, your family, your neighbors. text join j-o-i-n to 47246. go to hillaryclinton.com and sign up to make calls and knock on doors. [ cheers and applause ] it's no secret that we're going up against some pretty powerful forces that will do and spend whatever it takes to advance a very different vision for america. but i've spent my life fighting for children families and our country and i'm not stopping now.

[ cheers and applause ] [ crowd chanting "hillary" ] now. i know how hard this job is. i've seen it up close and personal. [ laughter ] all our presidents come into office looking so vigorous. [ laughter ] and then we watch their hair grow grayer and grayer. well, i may not be the youngest candidate in this race. but i will be the youngest woman president in the history of the united states. [ cheers and applause ]

and the first grandmother as well! [ cheers and applause ] and one additional advantage? you won't see my hair turn white in the white house. i've been coloring it for years. [ cheers and applause ] so i'm looking for a great debate among democrats, republican and independents. i'm not running to be president only for those americans who already agree with me. i want to be president for all americans. and along the way, i'll just let you in on this little secret. i won't get everything right. lord knows i've made my share of mistakes. well there's no shortage of people pointing them out. [ laughter ] and i certainly haven't won every battle i've fought. but leadership means

perseverance and hard choices. you have to push through the setbacks and the disappointments at keep at it. i think you know by now that i've been called many things by many people. [ laughter ] quitter is not one of them. [ cheers and applause ] . like so much else in my life i got this from my mother. when i was a girl she never let me back down from any bully or barrier. in her later years, mom lived with us and she was still teaching me the same lessons. i'd come home from a hard day at the senate or state department sit down with her at the small table in our breakfast nook and just let everything pour out. and she would remind me why we keep fighting even when the odds are long and the opposition is fierce. i can still hear her saying,

"life's not about what happens to you, it's about what you do with what happens to you, so get back out there." [ cheers and applause ] she lived to be 92 years old and i often think about all the battles she witnessed over the course of the last century. all the progress that was won because americans refused to give up or back down. she was born on june 4 1919 before women in america had the right to vote. but on that very day after years of struggle congress passed it had constitutional amount that would change that forever. the story of america is a story of hard fought hard won progress and it continues today. new chapters are being written by men and women who believe that all of us not just some but all, should have the chance to live up to our god-given

potential. not only because we're a tolerant country or a generous country or a compassionate country but because we're a better stronger more prosperous country when we harness the talent hard work and ingenuity of every single american i wish my mother could have been with us longer. i wish she could have seen chelsea become a mother herself. i wish she could have met charlotte. i wish she could have seen the america we're going to build together. [ cheers and applause ] an america where if you do your part you reap your rewards, where we don't leave anyone out or anyone behind. an america where a father can tell his daughter "yes you can be anything you want to be even president of the united states." [ cheers and applause ] thank you all. god bless you and may got bless

america! [ cheers and applause ] >> hillary rodham clinton, her official launch speech. this two months after she announced her intention to run for the president of the united states there on roosevelt island in new york city. and she's saying i want to be your champion. there watching this entire speech right now, steve kornacki who is the host. see the, what was different than eight years ago that you noticed from eight years ago in her speech today? >> i think what's different is the context of how this is playing out. i think this was a confident speech from hillary clinton and it reflects the confidence of the campaign on two fronts. one is obviously we talk about the superior position she's in today to win the democratic nomination. eight years ago she was about to

square off with a genuine political rock star barack obama. today the field comparatively on the democratic side is much more clear. so the challenge for hillary clinton unlike eight years ago, the challenge now on the democratic side is just to make sure nobody else could get traction against her. what that then feeds into is a bigger calculation, a bigger confident calculation that the clinton campaign is making here. and it's about how the country has evolved. how the politics of this country evolved over the last generation. what's behiendnd that you heard her go through a laundry list of priorities, positions the liberal base her party has. the calculation of her clinton campaign is hey, look we have the numbers. there's a majority in blue america that turns out in presidential elections. five of the last six presidential elections if you go by the popular vote have been won by the democratic candidate. there party, the democratic party has a bigger built-in coalition of states. they call it the blue wall that

it's won for six straight elections. . that's the longest period of sustained success this party has had in its history. there's a statement that hey, if we won on these principles, the core principles of the democratic party, more broadly speaking the progressive movement, they feel that coalition that elected obama twice, that coalition that's been there five of the last six elections will be there for them, too. >> steve kornacki will be joining us again later this hour with more on this official launch speech. steve, thanks so much for that. i want to get over to democratic strategist kiki mcclain who served as advisor for hillary clinton's 2008 campaign. i think what most will notice if they look at the 40-minute speech which was supposed to be about 15 to 20 minutes here is that she started with a lot of familiar tones and messaging. at the top mentioning her father and then midway and then the end

her mother, really hitting that twice. what does that show you about the way she'll address the campaign this second time around? >> well, you know what voters really want to know is who are you, where do you come from and what are you going to do for me and our country? and so part of an important speech like this is to answer those questions and i think she did. she said "i come from a home that inspired me to do better for others and i've spent a lifetime working for america's families and this is what i want to do for them." and i want to be 245ir championtheir champion. as an american, i'm glad she's wanting to do it. >> as a senior advisor in the '08 campaign i want to get your sense who have is this hillary clinton in 2015 versus what she was in 2007? >> you know what? the hillary clinton you see today is the hillary clinton she's always been. you and i both know that campaigns and the process of a campaign has a way of draping

other people's ideas around candidates. but today you see the kind of champion she's been for america's families. and that's the person she's always been. and i think that's why she talked a little bit about her history and the kind of work she's done and how it inspires her to continue to do that work. >> you know part of the challenge for her -- and you know this quite well -- is her associations necessarily with the 1%, with big business with wall street, for instance. and she did address that several times throughout her speech saying that she's going to go after that she does not want this separation this gap to exist, yet the critics, the republicans, for instance, certainly coming after her about her association with that group and being part of that group. >> well part of being a leader is dealing with the whole issue and not just one element. she's been a senator from the state of new york where there's a lot of finance and big businesses headquarters. she's familiar with it. she also understands what it is to be a champion for those folks

who haven't had their opportunity at prosperity like she discussed today. and that's why she'll take the whole view and move everybody forward. >> kiki mcclain, democratic strategist, also serving as senior advisor for hillary clinton in the '08 campaign. next, the prison worker accuseed of helping two killers escape as a late night court appearance, the latest on her arrest plus the search for those escapees. next. ♪♪ expected wait time: 55 minutes. your call is important to us. thank you for your patience. waiter! vo: in the nation, we know how it feels when you aren't treated like a priority. we do things differently. we'll take care of it. vo: we put members first... join the nation. thank you. ♪ nationwide is on your side ♪ if you have moderate to severe rheumatoid arthritis like me... and you're talking to a rheumatologist about a biologic this is humira. this is humira helping to relieve

straight to breaking news and the dramatic developments between police a a suspect who attacked dallas police headquarters. the showdown started overnight when a van slammed into a police squad car. a suspect fired a hail of bullets at officers. police chased the fan, surrounded it and negotiated with the suspect by phone. dallas police chief saying police snipers fired through the van windshield but don't know if the suspect is dead. >> i believe we're blessed that our officers survived this

ordeal. there are bullet holes in squad cars where officers were sitting. there are bullet holes in the front lobby where our staff was sitting. and one staff member had just walked away to get a coke if they had stayed there during the other deal they would have been shot based on the trajectory of the bullets. >> nbc's charles hadlock live in dallas. what do we know about the suspect alive or dead at this moment? >> well dallas police now believe the suspect may have perished in a -- in the sniper shooting today. they say they have not had communication with him for more than five hours now. this began just down the street at dallas police headquarters just after midnight when a heavily-armored black van pulled up on the scene and began firing at the building and at officers in their cars. they quickly returned fire but the man was inside a protected

armored vehicle. that armored vehicle rammed into several police cars and then sped away. police gave chase, following him down to hutchins texas, into a restaurant parking lot where he was surrounded. after a few hours of negotiations police officers fired a 50-caliber weapon into the engine block to stop that van from going anywhere else and after negotiations broke down and they didn't hear from the man anymore, they feared for their lives and the lives of the people in the community that this man would try to blow up the van so they took him out with a single shot through the windshield. they're trying to identify exactly who he is. they believe they know. they say he's a 35-year-old white male who has a history of family violence. he was apparently upset that police took away his child during an altercation three years ago with his mother and uncle. that's about all we know right now. scott gordon, a reporter for

kxas tv went to the mother's door. she answered the door and said that was most likely her son and they wished the family could now be in peace and that they want the matter to go away now. a family tragedy turned public with a major gun fight here in downtown dallas. back to you. >> charles hadlock, thank you so much. later in the next hour we will discuss the motive as well as the munitions involved in this confrontation there in dallas texas. now to the latest from the massive manhunt for two escaped murderers believed to be in upstate new york. now in the eighth day of that search. more than 800 law enforcement officers from local, state and federal enforcement agencies are considering to get out there and go door to door searching for richard matt and david sweat. this comes after prison worker joyce mitchell was charged last night for sneaking contraband including hacksaw blades and chisels into the prison to aid

those convicts. mitchell pleaded not guilty. joining us now is former fbi profiler candice delong. as the days go by here candice, we seem to get more and more interesting information here. unusual as we look at the man thount enter its eighth day or does this tell us something about the killers themselves in terms of their survival instincts? >> well, they're certainly determined determined they've proven that. if you look at the terrain there in upstate new york there's a million places where they could be hiding. perhaps they found shelter someone, maybe someone is helping them, hard to say. i think probably it's not going to go on a great deal longer. >> and why do you say that? >>. >> well, it's been eight days, there have been no crimes reported. no one witnessing anything "they took my car, they broke into my home." anything like that has happened

which is good. but it also indicates they're not potentially get anything help. they may be sleeping in the woods. eight days is a long time to be on the run. is there also is no indication they've left the state or the country. and this is one of the largest -- >> do you think the arrest of joyce mitchell might now give them information? they might be gathering data that they didn't have before as they perhaps negotiate with her? >> well they've been talking with her for many many days. i would not be surprised to find out that she's been 100% cooperative. she looks to me like a woman who was swept away by probably a very smooth-talking con man and that's what they do some of these prisoners, they target someone that they believe is vulnerable and they can manipulate. i don't think she's a hard-core criminal so she's probably cooperating and has shared everything she knows. >> all right, thank you so much.

very good saturday to you, welcome to weekend's with alex witt in for richard lui. hillary clinton just finish eded her speech announcing she's running for president. and what she has been calling the everyday american and the jobs and voting rights that she has been describing throughout the last two months. she continues to stay there meeting many of the visitors there in what is some 08-degree weather. not a cool day as many americans are out there on roozsevelt island. that being a very important place, with roosevelt being an important influence on her and her political background. joy ann reid msnbc's national political correspondent will

join us later to discuss with us what she, hillary clinton, said in her messaging and what it means going forward. now to breaking news out of dallas where police and the bomb squad and the fbi all working together to diffuse a highly dangerous situation, all starting in the middle of the night when a van slammed into a police squad car and its headquarters outside. a suspect then started shooting at officers ultimately chased to a nearby town where he was cornered inside the van. then after hours of negotiation by phone, police snipers shooting at the suspect from a distance. he is believed to have been killed, but bomb experts are approaching carefully at the moment. meanwhile, back at the police department where bullet holes riddled windows and walls, the bomb squad was able to safely detonate explosives found at that scene. >> the suspect meant to kill officers and took time to discharge that weapon multiple

times to accomplish their wanting to harm our officers. northeast's charles had lock live in dallas. charles, we were talking. the motive. what have drove the suspect to do what he did? >> police really don't know the motive right now. they're still piecing together exactly what happened last night. but what a dramatic scene just down the street playing out after midnight last night. the black van heavily armored pulled up in front of police headquarters, shots were fired with an automatic weapon at police officers inside the police station and also in squad cars parked in the parking lot. police returned fire shooting at the van, but the van was heavily armored. they couldn't pierce it. the van rammed several police cars and then drove away. an army of police officers chased that vehicle down interstate 45 to the small town of hutchins about 15 miles south of dallas where it was cornered in a restaurant parking lot. police were able to talk with

the man after he called 911 but he rambled for five or ten minutes explaining he was upset with police because they had taken away his child and that they called him a terrorist and that he was going to blow them up. police don't know what he was talking about. they've never had any encounter with him here. but he was arrested in paris, texas, on a dallas county warrant because of a child -- family violence back in 2013. that's what precipitated all this apparently. but police are still trying to piece together what happened. they fired at the vehicle in the restaurant, knocking out the engine with a 50 caliber rifle and then when there were no more communications from the vehicle, police feared it was more of a threat because he had a bomb in there. they shot through the windshield and took him out apparently. now they're having to crime upeep up on the vehicle with a robot to see if he is dead and if so how to get him out of this armored

vehicle. they may have to use explosives to trigger a larger explosion if there is something there. he left pipe bombs in the parking lot and when the robot went there to pick up the device it exploded destroying the robot. back to you, richard. >> good thing for robots no doubt. change, charles hadlock. joining us now joshua gillbo. a witness who filmed the shooting. we have the twitter video and i want to show that to our viewers, first of all, if we can, to show us what you had seen at that scene. josh we can hear clearly the firing being exchanged between the police officers and that suspect. where were you and how did you know to start filming this? >> so i was actually just trying

to decide if i wanted to go out that night so i was headed towards owl elevators and our elevators are adjacent to the main stars in south side of louisiana mar, which is the apartment complex across the street in the dallas p.d. so seeing that happening i was like, okay well this is kind of a big deal. this isn't just some regular ongoing, this is somebody who's trying to take lives. >> what time did this happen? >> i believe it was around 11:00. i want to say it was around 11ish, maybe 11:30. >> and when you started filming, was this in the beginning, the end? >> no this was like midway through it. to be honest i was laying down. i was on the phone -- to take you back and put in the context. i was laying on the and i was trying to decide so i went for a walk and heard the noises and that was the reason i got up.

so this isn't somebody -- this is somebody firing off heavy machinery or high-powered rifle. >> and multiple shot there is as we're looking at your video here. how far is this incident -- >> that doesn't capture -- come again? >> how far is this incident, would you say? because i can see you have to street view here but how far was the incident? >> oh right across the street. you could probably throw a football and hit the van. 50 yards, maybe. >> so the noise must have been quite loud. did you have roommates? were there are people in the streets? >> yeah i -- the reason i'm here in dallas -- i'm not from dallas. i'm hear with an initiative called the march grant project, so they brought us all together so it's 15 of us. we live on the south side of lamar and each unit there's four members of the team so three members were trying to -- we

were trying to sleep. we just got home from a long day at work and we were trying to catch a little bit of rest and that kind of snapped us into a complete different reality. >> jish guilbaut thank you so much for your perspective and information on that. thank you. new york prison worker joyce mitchell behind bars. she is charged with sneaking in contraband to aid convicted murderers richard matt and david sweat. they were on the run believed to be in the dense woods surrounding clinton correctional facility. joining me now from morris morrissonville, new york, is msnbc's adam riess. adam, people until this area, we've been talking about it over the recent days living and being in a space where they have to lock doors and after eight days it's got to be wearing on folks. >> absolutely. they thought they may have gone

further, maybe even crossed over into vermont, maybe canada but now that the search is focused here there is a loath more concern among the residents here. officials have a perimeter set up, they believe they're closing in, they believe they're on the right track, they believe they may still together. there's no reason they say they might have left the area. there have been no carjackings, they have dogs on the search they have choppers in the air, they hope they're going in the right direction. >> police officials here saying we're going to get you and they're pointing directly at those two suspects. adam we'll touch base with you a bit later, thank you so much. joining me now is arthur roderick former assistant director for informations at the u.s. marshals, now deputy assistant director at the department of homeland security. if this doesn't work arthur what will be the next step for law enforcement? >> well richard, these cases always have a similar phase set up. first of all, you've got the manhunt face which we're still in which is kind of unusual

considering this has been going on seven or eight days now. the investigation as to how they got out is moving very smoothly. someone has been charged and they're investigating other suspects. and the third face is determining how they got out. so whatever's happen inging, the marshal force is looking at family associates and trying to figure out how they're community kate ing kating -- communicating. we'll find them it's just a matter of time but it's good to see they're still doing this manhunt, they have a perimeter set up. they're very optimistic they'll find them. it's just unusual it's taken

this long. >> unusual. is this because perhaps of the process and the methods that have been used by law enforcement. would you have made suggestions that they could have done some things differently? >> no i think what they're doing is exactly right on. what every -- basically this is what's done in every type of escape case. i think the problem they have here is the terrain, the area, the large area that they're looking and i think with those two things in mind -- and plus that area is dotted with summer homes and cabins that they could have got into because they -- a lot of people haven't opened those up yet. >> okay arthur roderick former assistant director for the investigations at the u.s. marshals, now deputy assistant director at the department of homeland security thank you so much for your time today. hillary clinton could not have ordered up a more picture-perfect day, some might say, in new york for her first official campaign speech 80 degrees and sunny. might be warm for sum and a crowd that came ready to roar. take a listen.

you can see here some pictures. this will the detonation of that armored van in dallas texas, where a suspect charged a dallas police headquarters location then was shot at believed to be dead at the moment but, again, these two separate explosions just happening around noon right after noon local time we believe so we want to give you an update on that. so many munitions were expected to be in that van. munitions left in locations close by. we'll continue to what is happening there in this breaking

news coming out of dallas texas. also happening today, hillary rodham clinton spending an hour with her first major rally and speech of her 2016 campaign. msnbc's joy ann reid was there throughout that entire speech and as we look at what hillary was -- hillary clinton was saying, she was really focusing here on the middle-class and very very clear that she was focusing at them not only the everyday worker but, you know both blue-collar and white collar workers as well. >> absolutely richard. and very deliberate and very -- i guess you could say deliberate. the choice of four freedoms park here on roosevelt island. the island named for franklin delano roosevelt. hillary clinton trying to identify with the roosevelt era saying the two presidents who carried on the great bargain that roosevelt struck with the american people -- meaning if you work hard you can do better -- were of course her husband, the former president bill clinton and barack obama.

but then trying to tie that in to what she said are the four fights against tying those four freedoms she said she's going to be fighting for on behalf of middle-class families. lots of themes about the middle-class, about people working hard not getting head. lots of themes about the inequality of those getting the most from society and those working the hardest but not getting ahead. hillary clinton trying to cement that identification with fdr, richard. >> joy, you covered hillary clinton for quite some time you watched now, this is her second election, her vying for the white house a second time and she was saying how she was going after the everyday american. but those who are maybe watching the background and who was there in the crowd, didn't seem to reflect necessarily the everyday american per say in terms of looking at diversity and those who were there but, of course, that's just what we saw on the camera. what did you see on the ground? >> it's interesting. i used to live on roosevelt island. one of the peculiar features of this island is it's very international.

it's the home base for people who work for the soun if you go there the periphery of this crowd or the people back here in the area, a lot were international, people who live on roosevelt island. i spoke to them. they thought it was intriguing that the united states could have a first woman president. it was a predominantly white crowd. interestingly enough it was a pretty young crowd given a campaign-type of event but distribution of aid was a lot more what the campaign wants to see and i spoke with a lot of young voters in terms of ethnic diversity. but i guess if you look at the democratic party as a whole, was this crowd as as a that is righty? no, but that's something the

campaign will have to deal with. it's also about who's paying attention and who's in new york. there so there's a lot of factors going into it but on the diversity side they were on the low end here. >> so well said there, joy, about this being one event on roosevelt island and there are many more events to be had as the election moves on. joy ann reid thank you so much covering that story for us. we take you to baltimore. former and current major league baseball players are gathering to celebrate one of the oldest african-american youth baseball leagues. the event comes at a time of increased violence and murders and follows violent protests in april and may over the death of 25-year-old freddie gray. joining me now from baltimore is rob sigh mull care the host of sports matters on shift by msnbc. rob, you spoke to mayor stephanie rawlings blake who was also there. what did she tell you? >> well richard, first of all, this was a great event to be a

part of. over 300 kids getting together to celebrate the game of baseball and what it means in this community. i asked mayor rawlings blake about this lead called the james moser league which has been around since 1960 what it means to the city of baltimore. >> to see this tradition not just continue but flourish gives me a lot of pride. you see these kids out here learning the important skills of team work they're learning it from our top business and civic community leaders. it's a wonderful event. >> richard, they had hall of fame baseball players here frank robinson, the baltimore orioles great, current major league baseball players as well executive with the major league baseball players association. so it was a great day to be a

part of something this positive in west baltimore. >> and they need that there and it's great to see that james moser baseball league founded in 1960 still remains and still remembered. thank you so much, rob simmelkjaer, appreciate your time. she claimed to be black but her parents say she's white. what's the problem with that? she's a leader with the naacp.

welcome back to "week we understand alex witt." to the controversy shaking an naacp chapter in washington state that's raising difficult questions about race and identity. one of the group's leaders accused of lying for years about her race and it's her own parents outing her, claiming she's a white woman pretending to be black. nbc's ron allen has a look. >> she's the head of the naacp in spokane, an outspoken civil rights activist part-time instructor of african-american studies at a local college. and rachel dolezal raised eyebrows with her answer to this question about race from a local reporter. >> is that your dad? >> yeah, that's -- that's my dad. >> this man right here is your father? righting there? >> do you have a question about

that? >> yes, ma'am. i was wondering if your dad really is an african-american man. >> that's a very -- i don't know what you're implying. >> are you african-american? >> i don't -- i don't understand the question of -- i did tell you that yes, that's my dad and he was unable to come in january. >> are your parents -- are they white? >> reporter: but now dolezal's parents have come forward to say she's white. >> she wants to recreate reality. she wants to just invent it herself. >> reporter: they say their ancestry is czech, swedish and squler german and that for years her daughter has been misleading people. >> she has told herself as well as she's told other this is erroneous identity of hers enough that by now she may believe that more than she believes the truth. >> reporter: her parents said they've not spoken to their daughter in years. this unusual clash about race

and identity has gone viral. amid the criticism, the naacp said it stands behind her and that "racial identity is not a qualifying or disqualifying standard for naacp leadership." >> people claiming different ethnicities goes on all the time, so much so that what we take as the standard is how people self-identify. >> reporter: still the city is investigating whether she misrepresented her race on an application to serve on a citizen police commission. as for dolezal -- would you identify yourself as an african-american? >> i don't like the term african-american. i prefer black. >> reporter: no further comment from her today. ron allen, nbc news new york. back to our breaking story, the attack on police headquarters in dallas. the bomb squad. the fbi and dallas police working together to diffuse that situation. our charles hadlock, nbc's correspondent watching what is happening. charles, what we were just getting information in at the top of the hour was they

exploded that armored van that the suspect had been driving. >> yes, they had to approach it very carefully with a robot to look inside to see if the suspect was still alive and then try to figure out how to get him out. he was in an armored van and even if the door wasn't locked he wouldn't want to open that door because he did say he has c-4 explosives inside. so to get in they detonated the device to trigger a larger explosion if there was one. we haven't heard exactly what was inside and what they found but an earlier tweet from the dallas police department said they believed the suspect is dead taken out by a police sniper's bullet earlier this morning after they disabled his vehicle in hutchins. that's about 15 miles from the police department headquarters here just south of downtown dallas where the shootout took place just after midnight, a black heavily armed van pulled up on the scene, began opening fire on the lobby of the police

department and then in the parking lot striking police cars. no one was hit, that was a miracle in itself. no one was hit, no one was hurt. police fired on the vehicle but because it was an armored vehicle they couldn't stop it. that vehicle rammed several police officers' cars before taking off on a 12-mile chase down interstate 45. police are still on the scene here. this is an active scene. they're picking up and calculating exactly where the bullets were fired from and exactly who fired which bullets. this is an ongoing case that's going to be taking place here in downtown dallas for several more hours to come. >> nbc charles's hadlock, thank you very much with the latest there n dallas. also the big story today on this saturday hillary clinton publicly launching her campaign for president, her first launch speech, even though she did two months ago publicly say she was going to be running for president in that campaign video she put out. the rally on new york city's

roosevelt island, a speech running more than 40 minutes. she cast herself as a candidate who will usher in economic and social equality. >> prosperity can't be just for ceos and hedge fund managers. democracy can't be just for billionaires and corporations. prosperity and democracy are part of your basic bargain, too. you brought our country back. now it's time your time to secure the gains and move ahead. and you know what? america can't succeed unless you succeed. joining us now is the national politics correspondent for the "washington post." she's been covering the clinton campaign. and democratic strategist morris lead served as a senior aide for president bill clinton's cabinet and served on his '96 reelection campaign. and starting with you here the party is still going on over

there on roosevelt island. it was a warm warm day and she had a lot to say. she planned originally for her message to be 20 minutes, how did her four points as she was laying them out resonate with those there? >> she -- this was a very long and detailed speech much more detailed on policy than we expected it to be. it was -- she really sketched a vision of an inclusive populist america, the clip you played there a moment ago gives a good flavor of the kind of the central thrust of her message which is we're all in this together but it's your turn and there can't be a -- the deck can't be stacked. everyone has to have a fair -- it has to be a fair fight for everyone. everyone has to have an even playing field. we heard a lot of the same things she's been saying on -- in the first part of her campaign before the formal launch today. but this was really the first time that she went beyond that and said here's exactly why i

want to be president and here's what i would do for you if i did become president. >> so morris, one of the themes she touched on very lightly, and i can probably count the number of words on one hand and that was immigration reform and the latino american vote being so important coming up to 2016. did she hit that sharply enough to do you think? >> she didn't have enough time to detail what she'll do from a policy stand point. but the exciting thing is that this is the first woman that could be president of the united states. for us in the clinton family and the extended family it's an exciting moment. it was heartwarming to see her talk about her mother and bring it all together so i think she'll have enough time to talk to the american people. everyone knows her so she needs to spend time to articulate her policy and how she would really bring america back and keep it going in the right direction. >> you had a good point there, morris. because everybody knows her so

much she almost has to be even more if you will effusive and open about her background and that's perhaps why she brought up her parents more than you probably would have seen her do in the past morris. >> well i think she's trying to connect in a unique and different way. this will be the last of the big rallies you'll. see hillary clinton will spend a lot of time talking to voters one on one like you saw on her listening tour talking across the table because a lot o of americans feel like they know her. she needs to spend time telling the american people what she would do if she was elected president. i think you'll see that. she'll get more personal particularly talking about her mother and it will impact her mother has had on her. it's an exciting time for women in america to see a woman who could get to 1600. >> ann, you were covering hillary clinton when she was at the state department. a very dominant figure in the histories of secretary of state and yet given her most-traveled

status, she did very little discussion about international policy during her message today and her time at the state department. >> there was more about foreign policy and global challenges in today's speech than we've heard just about any time since the campaign started, believe it or not. and you're right, it still wasn't much. the campaign is really convinced this isn't going to be a foreign policy election and that certainly for democratic primary voters that is what they care about and to the extent that they care about most anyway and to the extent it is an issue for them, they're comfortable and confident that hillary clinton could be the commander in chief. you saw her gesture over her shoulder at the beginning today to the united nations building and make the point slyly that she'd been there, she represented the united states right over there in the united nations. it was more symbolic than anything else.

she took to a few other things she said she'd taken on putin and wouldn't roll over to bullies and that sort of thing. she moved past that and back on to economic and other kinds of social pocketbook issues which is what they think the campaign will be fought on. >> one could not help but think as you saw her standing on the podium giving her official launch speech that, boy, this is a long time coming, is she does have the desire to become the president of the united states. there she is again and you could not help that it was 2007 all over again. thank you both for your time. >> thank you so much. it's back to the future for a box office blockbuster that changed the movie business in america's day at the beach.

of the ocean may, of course not be true we're just guessing. summer attendance summer travelers visiting martha's vineyard tripled in the years following "jaws." so i think it made us thrilled to go into the ocean because i think it made us feel like we were doing something dangerous when, in fact we were just going into the ocean. >> not a lot of sharks on martha's vineyard. there's a lot in california. universal pictures spent about $2 million to promote "jaws." did that change the dynamic at the time? >> yeah. they took out ads in nearly 30 television markets, 30 major tv markets right before the release in june of 1975. that hadn't been done before. now we see ads for movies all the time on tv. that was new. everything about "jaws" was new. previously films in the summer were thought to be just for kids so the initial thought was maybe this would just be a simple monster movie that kids would go to but it ended up being a much more grown-up movie and it turned out, what do you know? grown-ups go to the movies too. lord knows how much money the studios lost in the 40 years prior to this before it occurred

to them that hey, maybe we should start releasing good movies in the summer. >> so good movies, the does sharknado have anything to do with "jaws" and thanking jaws for what it did? >> well we've gotten so much from "jaws," some of it good and exciting, like shark week. some of it silly like "sharknado." some of it incredibly memorable, like the land shark bit in the fourth episode ever of "saturday night live." >> "snakes on a plane." >> right. peter benchley, who wrote the novel later said he regretted writing the novel because at the time he just treated the shark sort of like godzilla and he didn't realize how sharks behave in the water. and that movie has completely framed how we think about sharks and most of it is incorrect. sharks do not go around hunting people. >> i want to finish with a funny fact that folks may not know. among its many accolades here the library of congress selected

it in 2001 for preservation in the national film registry as a culturally significant film. why is it culturally significant, do you think? >> well first of all, for some of the things we just talked about. it's literally framed how we feel about this fish in the ocean. that we didn't know that much about it. it's created a whole genre of entertainment. it created the summer blockbuster. and also it's the movie that made stephen spielberg stephen spielberg. and let's not kid ourselves. this is a thrilling sensational movie. it's not just what it did and what came after it it's the entertainment it provided by and why so many people turn out the events on sunday the 21st and wednesday the 24th at 2:00 and 7:00 to see this movie in theater with other people, to sleek with other people and share the experience the way people did in 1975. >> shriek. ben mankiewicz weekend daytime host of turner classic movies thank you so much, my friend.

>> pleasure, thanks. some call it an apple watch killer. a new ring technology at ted women, a sister of ted talks. the organizer describes who the speakers are there. >> they're beautifully designed every detail is taken care of. adds wireless devices become part of our clothing and part of our accessories, they can not be unisex. >> now, in an msnbc exclusive, the creator of wireless rings sat down after her ted talk. >> we created recently a line of cocktail rings that connect to your phone and will notify you when something important is happening. phone calls, text messages e-mails, the rings are connected to your phone through bluetooth and they'll vibrate and show a color when you get certain notifications. when you tap it it means connect it when you take it off your finger and set it down it goes into low power state. >> how did you decide the size of it? >> batteries.

the biggest component in here is the battery. the box that it comes in is actually its charger so you don't have to plug in your jewelry, just put it back in the box at night and it charges. and box has a battery inside so it doesn't need to be plugged in all the time. it can go several days without needing a charge. >> how long does the ring last? >> about 24 to 48 hours depending on how many notifications you get and how popular you are. >> was it difficult to put together? >> everyday was like smaller, smaller, smaller. there are about 50 different components inn this ring. we don't have buttons or switches or screws or screens or usb ports. it needed to look like a piece of jewelry first. we're focused on women for the time being. you guys have pockets and you keep your phones in your pockets. for women we don't have pockets big enough and sometimes we don't have pockets at all so we tend to keep our phones in purses and we miss things a lot. >> the founder there. tomorrow disaster robot technology, another msnbc exclusive at ted women. it's a big meeting pretty

a quick update on the breaking news we've been telling you about in texas. a van exploding, presumably detonated by a bomb squad, after a showdown by a suspect and police. it started overnight when the van rammed into a police car at headquarters. and police found pipe bombs scattered around their property. and authorities were very concerned the vehicle was rigged with bombs so they said a robot would perform a controlled detonation. we'll continue to update you on the story through the day as there is a lot of activity happening in dallas. now in utah. hopefuls with spending the weekend skeet shooting and

hiking and pill ats. to court megadoan yorz and business leaders and each other. attending are scott walker john kasich and others. joining me now is casey hunt and new york times reporter ashley parker. organized by mitt romney. and casey is there. and as i can tell ashley can hear us too. so what are some of the big takeaways here. were some big deals made because as we were saying in the introduction some of the money is needed thursday courting is to energyicly. >> hi richard. this is the group of the donors that helped bank roll mitt nit in 201 and they are all here trying to pick a winner. if you think about in terms of in vesting, that is how people look at the presidential race. if they want to spend a lot of

money, they want it to be a winner. you had scott walker chris christie and others saying we can take your dollars to the white house. >> there are many white house hopefuls absent at this event. is this mitt romney way to influence the race and put his name back in and be the alder statesman, so to say. >> last time he was at this retreat there was talk about him and some thought he would like to be secretary of state and he did try to inject himself on foreign policy and he talked about how president obama was one of the worst president in history when it comes to foreign policy so he wants to shape the debate. >> what were some of the things discussed there.

>> i think foreign policy is a focus of the 2016 field. i think there is a sense that is something they feel that mitt romney would have done better than president obama has done and something that is -- something they need to focus on as they run against hillary clinton, making an argument they need to go. and this crowd was concerned about immigrant in particular. and this crowd is different from traditional republican primary voters who think that the path to citizenship is too far to go. this crowd is business oriented. they think smsing this we -- something we need to keep our businesses going and they want to create a cliemt where -- climate where it is easier for people with high credentials to stay in the country. and they were forced to deal with how they would be like that going forward. >> and ashley how did the candidates interact with each other. that is always kind of fun to watch. >> well you saw some of the

candidates -- this was not quite them interacting with each other but with donors and they had special panels and events where they play up their events. marco rubio took a group of donors to play floog football. and lindsey graham started hunting with his father and some went skeet shooting. and so they are trying to highlight their fun events and also that show case their strengths. >> casey how is your skeet shooting? >> we shot scoot. i didn't hit anything. >> neither did i. but casey had better form. >> lindsey graham won the contest. so he is in fact a decent skeet shooter. >> i have missed many sides of a bash barn -- barn so i understand. thank you. you folks have a great saturday. >> thank you. >> that wraps up weekends with
