>> nightcap, jeb bush on the couch for stephen colbert's first "late show." >> your campaign poster is just jeb with a j-e-b and exclamation mark. why the jeb! >> connotes excitement. it connotes -- >> jeb! >> and god save the queen. this hour queen elizabeth becoming the longest ruling monarch, breaking queen victoria's record. >> inevitably, a long life can pass by many milestones. my own is no exception. >> hip hip -- >> hooray! good day, i'm andrea mitchell in washington, where this morning hillary clinton

outlined what her foreign policy would be, a tough policy toward iran, toward israel, syria, and vladimir putin, taking a harder line in fact than president obama toward russia and delivering a warning to iran. >> my starting point will be one of distrust. you remember president reagan's line about the soviets, trust but verify. my approach will be distrust and verify. we should anticipate that iran will test the next president. they'll want to see how far they can bend the rules. that won't work if i'm in the white house. >> she also denounced how partisan foreign policy has become with not a single republican senator declaring in favor of the deal, and republican candidates rallying against it today. joining me now for our daily fix, nbc's katy tur from capitol hill, washington post columnist ruth marcus and chris cillizza.

welcome all. first to you, ruth, we've had decades and decades of by partisanship on foreign policy until the iraq vote but that was more bipartisan than some democrats would have liked. this is absolutely down the line. it -- rs and ds. >> amazingly down the line. and if you contrast it actually with our allies overseas, the other parts of this deal, there is not the same sort of partisan division on the deal. and so either republicans know something that all our allies don't know or there's a lot of unnecessary and kind of disturbing partisanship going on here. reasonable people can differ on this deal, but it's very disappointing that it's so down the line partisan. >> katy tur, what you're going to see in the next hour is a rally organized by donald trump and ted cruz. this is an interesting alignment. >> reporter: it's about as partisan as it gets out here. this is a tea party rally as

well, glenn beck will be here, sarah palin, ted cruz and donald trump. if there was any wiggle room in terms of the senate democrats who may vote no for this, these are not the people who are necessarily going to convince them to do that. they're going to come out here, they're going to say this deal is not good for the country and they should strike it down. but ultimately this is more political grandstanding than anything else out here. ted cruz says he wants to rip up the deal. donald trump getting the most headlines for this event, says that he doesn't believe he can rip up the deal but he would police it as strongly as possible. similarly to what hillary clinton said earlier today, donald trump coming out and saying that this is a bad deal. he's bought bad deals in the past and he would be the one that would be able to make sure that it is enforced as strictly as possible. these are people out here who while they don't necessarily want this deal to go through, a lot of them will tell you they do believe if it does go through and they have to have somebody dealing with it, they say that donald trump is the person they want to do that.

they believe that he is a negotiator. they believe that he is a good businessman and they believe that he is going to be able to translate those business skills to foreign policy, despite the gaffes or the stumbles he may have had in terms of foreign policy in the past few days, andrea. >> chris cillizza, this is also marking a shift for hillary clinton. here she's talking about iran. this is a long scheduled speech trying to be tough and outline where her foreign policy would differ, in fact, even from president obama's. but at the same time the softer, gentler hillary clinton with the apology, long awaited, especially i'm told by donors, and also dictated by a focus group in new hampshire, where people out there said -- people out on the stump contrary to what clinton has long claimed, that this is just a media issue, they say that they wanted to hear more from her about the e-mails. this is what she said to david muir on abc last night. >> in retrospect certainly as i look back at it now, even though

it was allowed, i could have used two accounts, one for personal, one for work-related e-mails. that was a mistake, i'm sorry about that. i take responsibility. and i'm trying to be as transparent as i possibly can. >> and of course 48 hours or maybe a little longer earlier with us she wouldn't use the word "mistake," wouldn't specifically apologize but said she was sorry. let's watch that. >> i'm sorry that this has been confusing to people and has raised a lot of questions. >> and then there was facebook, a posting with a more specific apology last night after the abc interview. what is so difficult about saying, you know, you're sorry, it wasn't illegal but sorry, you shouldn't have done it? >> well, look, i give her a little bit of a pass because i think it's always hard to say you're sorry or apologize for

anything where i think in her heart of hearts she does not think she's done anything wrong. she says this is all above board, this is legal. i should have set it up but i did nothing wrong. i think part of it is that. you mentioned the new hampshire focus group, you mentioned the advice of her campaign team. i do think there was some significant blowback to your interview with her on friday in which she essentially said i'm sorry if people are offended. she said i'm sorry for the confusion. well, i'm sorry for the confusion is not i'm sorry. i'm sorry you don't understand this. that's a totally different thing. i think the political reality sunk in. it should be worrisome if you're a clinton supporter that it took from march, early march when this story broke, until after labor day for her to get that she needed to simply say i'm sorry, it was a mistake, i take responsibility, let's move on. you know, that doesn't make the story go away, but i think it quiets some of the nerves of her supporters.

if she had done it two months ago, it would have quieted their nerves a lot better. >> ruth, the takeout on this, seth myers last night had a field day. just by reading some of the e-mails. let's watch. >> by the way, this all proves she's not running an e-mail conspiracy. she's not edward snowden, she's more like betty white. i mean that's fine. she's not good at technology, who cares. what matters is the face to face, with hillary clinton you get a meeting, except she's not great with meetings either. here's an e-mail from 2009. i heard on the radio that there is a cabinet meeting this a.m. is there? can i go? if not, who are we sending? i heard -- i heard on the radio. so clinton finds out about cabinet meetings the way everyone else finds out about monster truck rallies? >> ruth, i confess, i was

watching this live. i should not have been up watching this live. >> you should not have been up. you were up way too late. my personal favorite is the gafilta fish e-mail. that's the fun part of this e-mail story but the problem part of this e-mail story is just i'm going to i don't say the word botched handling of it. my friend, chris cillizza, was way too kind. i hear you laughing, chris. that it's hard to apologize. you know what, grown-ups, grown-up politicians learn to apologize and learn to apologize early on so this problem doesn't metastasize. i thought even with david muir she looked like she was in a hostage video. >> my favorite apology from a politician was a former treasury secretary, lloyd benson, who after getting caught going to a breakfast meeting with lobbyists which he shouldn't have done, he said, boy when i make a mistake,

it's a beaut. end of story. >> the story wasn't going to be ended ever but the damage could have been contained. it's a lot harder to contain it now. i have to say watching your interview, just the failure to do that and to say the "s" word was really remarkable. >> ruth, chris, katy, you're going to have fun up there. now to senator tim kaine. thank you very much, senator. >> absolutely. >> first of all, hillary clinton actually took a tougher line than just president obama. she called the iranian regime a brutal regime. she went after them. she said i will use force, i will use military action. she was tough on vladimir putin. she said her policy will be distrust but verify. and she made it very clear that there were mistakes made when the administration decided not to go after -- not to go after assad over those chemical

weapons. senator, sorry, i wanted to ask you your reaction to that. >> oh. >> too long a wind-up. my bad. >> i wondered if there was a question mark there. i've been reading the accounts of what she said. look, on iran since we're up here really debating that for the next week or ten days, she's right. it's a brutal regime, it's a regime that's active in destabilizing yemen, in propping up bashar al assad, in turning iraq into a puppet state. that's why it's so important iran not get nuclear weapons. before diplomacy started, andrea, the status quo which pretty much everybody acknowledged the sangsctions we punishing the iranian economy but wasn't slowing down their nuclear program. the sanctions are hurting iran's economy but they're not stopping

the nuclear program. if we don't do diplomacy and say we'll pile on more sanctions, we'll affect their economy but they'll race ahead. they already have 20,000 centrifuges and they'll either cross the nuclear threshold or we'll have to take military action to stop them. this puts it on a different path. for 15 years, 98% reduction in uranium, 2/3 reduction in centrifuges, get rid of the plutonium facility and importantly give us inspection. here's what inspections do, it gives us intel to find out if they're cheating. if we have to use military action we'll be better able to target it and it avoids us making a mistake. remember vice president cheney cheer led us into a war in march of 2003 saying don't trust the iaea, iraq has nuclear weapons. we went to war and they didn't. we've got to have these inspections so we know with accuracy what iran is doing. they're brutal now but it would be much worse if they have nuclear weapons. that's why i'm a realistic

supporter of this deal. >> since you've teed up dick cheney, this is cheney this week speaking against this deal and hillary clinton's response today. >> arming and funding iran while simultaneously providing them a pathway to a nuclear arsenal is not an act of peace. it's not, as president obama claims, the only alternative to war. it is madness. >> vice president cheney may hope that the american people will simply forget, but the truth is by the time president obama took office and i became secretary of state, iran was racing toward a nuclear capability. >> but the fact is you've got donald trump outside, you've got all the republicans lined up against it. and by almost 2-1 americans in some polls are against this deal now. >> well, look, it is always hard to do diplomacy, even with friends. diplomacy with adversaries is even tougher.

president kennedy confronted it when he tried to negotiate the nuclear test ban treaty with the soviet union right after the cuban missile crisis. when president nixon said let's have an opening to china, china was supporting the north ve vietnamese against us, they supported the north koreans against us, president reagan associated with the soviet union. the great presidents have often said even though this nation is an adversary and we're not going to pretend otherwise, tomorrow is more important than today. if we can find a path that will reduce the risk of the world, either of nuclear weapons or other threats, we should do it. this is a deal that at least for 15 years dramatically reduces the threat of a nuclear iran. and that is an important step forward. and then we can focus our energy on their nonnuclear activity and for that reason, i do think it is the best thing to do. and there is strong support for this. the immediate past two chairs of the senate armed services committee, john warner and carl

levin, wrote a peace why hawks should support the iran deal. general brent scocroft, general colin powell, there's a lot of people connected to the military and intelligence community in the united states and in israel that think this is actually the best move going forward, and i agree with them. >> as a former democratic party chair, are you disappointed with how long it has taken hillary clinton to apologize and to get on top of this e-mail problem, this crisis that continues? >> you know, i think what she said yesterday was appropriate. she said months ago, andrea, as you know, look, looking back on it, i would have done it differently. i wouldn't do it this way again. yeah, in that she didn't use the sorry word but everybody knows what that means. i made a mistake and i'd do it differently now. but i do think what she said in the last couple of days is a positive and i'm glad she did it. >> senator, thanks for being

with us. we have developing news from baltimore. the city's spending panel has agreed to a $6.4 million settlement with the family of freddie gray. he is the african-american man who died in april after suffering a critical spine injury while in police custody. the mayor spoke moments ago. >> the decision to settle the civil claims is completely unrelated to the criminal case the six officers currently face. the city's decision to settle the civil case should not be interpreted as passing any judgment on guilt or innocence of the officers. this settlement is about making the right fiscal decision for the city of baltimore. >> the mayor is responding to criticism from the police union. later this week a judge is expected to make a decision about whether the trials of the six officers will be moved out of the city of baltimore to

another venue. all six have pleaded not guilty. tomorrow we'll speak exclusively with the mayor of baltimore, stephanie rawlings blake right here on "andrea mitchell reports." free for now, the kentucky clerk who refused to issue marriage licenses is out of jail with direction from the judge. will she listen. multiple foreign objects in the body. tweezers.

county clerks answered what he'll do when she returns to work. >> when miss davis, i'll still issue a license. >> reporter: now, that was deputy clerk brian mason, again saying that he will continue to issue those licenses no matter what his boss says. now, yesterday it was a surreal scene outside the jail in grayson, kentucky. kim davis greeted by many supporters as they played that song "eye of the tiger." now, it struck a sour note with some people, namely survivor, the group behind the song. the guitarist of the group, frankie sullivan, posted on facebook, no, we did not grant kim davis any rights to use my tune "the eye of the tiger." as i said, andrea, it was quite the moment. >> indeed it was, thank you very much, gabe. thanks for being there. meanwhile, 53,000 seattle schoolchildren are not in school today because their teachers are out on strike. the school district has offered a pay increase of nearly 9% over three years. the union wants 10.5% over two

noted another significance attaching to today. although it is not one to which i have ever aspired. inevitably, a long life can pass by many milestones. my own is no exception. but i thank you all and the many others at home and overseas for your touching messages of great kindness. >> joining me now is the united kingdom's ambassador to the united states, and nbc's camilla at buckingham palace. there is so much affection for this queen and she has really, in the way she symbolically represents the whole family, the royals. tell me about the excitement there. >> reporter: she very much does envelope that whole feeling of the royal family here, putting duty first. acknowledging there has been this outpouring of emotion

toward her but playing it down. she didn't want a huge fuss for her this is just business as usual. it's not a career, it's her life. but at the same time i think an k acknowledgement that the people do want to celebrate. on the streets we've seen just that. there's been echos of 2012, the outpouring of emotion towards the queen when it was her diamond jubilee. very much in the same vein as the pageant that went down the thames to mark that ground occasion. but for the queen carrying on as usual, she still does 400 engagements a year and she's approaching her 90th birthday next april. it's quite something, someone who has remained steadfast in the role and continuing to work well beyond retirement age. >> indeed. sir peter, there have been ups and downs over the decades, but you've been in the diplomatic service for your country for a long time and you've also been involved, you've worked with the royal family on occasion. what is the internal dynamic

here behind this extraordinary woman? >> well, it's the record, of course, that she has now broken great great grandmother's record as you were saying. it's a very long time, 63 years and 216 days that she's been on the throne. i think it also embodies a sense of national identity, an extraordinary commitment to duty, a sense of service, a sense of grace and she just carries on doing the job, as your colleague was saying just now. 400, 300, whatever it is, several hundred engage maenment year and she keeps going. she didn't want a big fuss marking today's anniversary but the british people despite that wish to mark it and she does embody an awful lot of things about the sense of who the british people are and what our country is. and not only our country, she is the head of state of 16 other countries, which we sometimes forget. >> is there any expectation that having marked this milestone that she would at any stage step

down in favor of her son? >> oh, i don't think those are the rules of the game. i don't think we have an a la carte monarchy. i think becoming the head of state and head of the church was something for life to which she is extraordinarily attached and she will do her duty until the end of her life. >> camilla, you've seen over the years as well the ups and downs, the misfortunes, she referred to it herself after the fire at windsor and the tragic death of diana, but the rebound over these years has just been remarkable. >> reporter: it has, because she has endured and actually she's strived to remain relevant. david cameron paid tribute to her today saying that she has modernized monarchy and always upheld the tradition she holds dear while adapting and changing to the public's need. i think in that regard because she's been above politics, she hasn't had any self-serving motivation, she's just wanted to serve the public. if you think to the aftermath

after princess diana's death, there was criticism of the queen that she didn't show enough emotion, she didn't want the global outpouring of grief, then she gave a very famous televised address to the public here saying she's speaking to us as a queen and as a grandmother. in that respect she's always listening to the public, very much in tune with the public's mood, even though she's older. there are the chimes of big ben now. >> and we will listen. and as we see big ben and we hear the chimes, this marks this -- what is considered the appe anniversary. of course there's no telling exactly the moment that marks 63 years. >> well, it's 63 years and 263 days and so many hours. nobody is sure of the exact moment because her father died in his sleep, but this is the moment when she breaks the record, if you like, for being the longest serving british monarch.

i was just reading something, when she was 21 the queen herself made this broadcast from capetown. i declare before you all that my whole life, whether it be long or short, shall be devoted to your service. it's a pretty powerful thing to have said at that age and that's what she's done and i think that's why she commands extraordinary respect with the british people and around the world. she's done just that. >> your country is also marking another step as we here in the united states, you've been very actively involved as have the other ambassadors. if i could switch to the diplomacy for a moment because some people say aside from the energy secretary moniz, you have been the most effective advocate on the white house position on the iran deal. you went with more than 41 senators, 42 senators, 43, so going forward how tough are the allies prepared to be in monitoring this deal with iran?

>> very tough, andrea. very, we have been involved in trying to ensure that this deal survives because it is one which all of our governments negotiated in good faith and we think it does represent the best way of ensuring that iran does not get nuclear weapons. but if the iranians decide to walk away from the deal or to cheat, which we very much hope they will not do because they have implemented to the letter the interim agreement, then we are going to be very serious about snapping back the sanctions. the provisions are very clear in the agreement and of course there are extensive monitoring processes in that agreement and in the other iaea and other obligations that iran will have. so is this thing absolutely perfect? no. is it as good as we can get and do we think it does close off the route to iran getting nuclear weapons? yes. and we will be very, very rigorous in policing it. >> just briefly, hillary clinton called on the u.n. to have an international conference at the u.n. meetings this september on the migrant crisis. the u.k. has not stepped up the

way germany has in accepting so many hundreds of thousands of people, you're a smaller country, but isn't europe and the european union really on trial here? >> i think we have stepped up. we have done more than any other country except america in terms of providing money to help deal with the migrant crisis. we provided a billion and a half dollars to those countries like jordan and turkey and those providing camps and temporary refuge for the migrants and the prime minister announced monday that we were going to take another 20,000 syrian refugees so i think it's fair to say we are doing our bit. in the course of the united nations general assembly week there will be a lot of consultations. we've got to look at counterterrorism issues, we've got to look at the migrant crisis. there's an awful lot the international community must do not only to alleviate the humanitarian suffering to stop people putting their lives at risk with people smugglers, we have to address the origin of the problem in the countries that they are running away from

because they're dysfunctional or unsafe. so there's a lot of work to do together and the opportunity of coming together in new york is a good time to do that. >> sir peter, thank you and our thanks to camilla as well. caught on tape, a hungarian tv camerawoman is fired after appearing to trip immigrants fleeing from a police roundup. that story coming up next. you're watching msnbc. attack. but i did. i'm mike, and i'm very much alive. now my doctor recommends a bayer aspirin regimen to help prevent another heart attack. be sure to talk to your doctor before you begin an aspirin regimen. now that's a full weekend. ♪ join in and guess the five stops they made by tweeting #altimaweekendcontest for a chance to win your own weekend adventure!

in these extraordinary images, but no one is really coming to grips with how europe and the european union should respond. >> well, this is a humanitarian crisis that needs to be dealt with first and foremost at the source of the problem, which is the syrian war. we're now in the fifth year of a terrible violent war that has affected millions. there's now 4.5 million refugees living in the neighboring countries around syria, another million or so displaced from around syria. that's why there needs to be a peaceful solution to the war because that's what's driving these refugees to flee. they have been living, doing their best in the countries surrounding syria and turkey and lebanon and jordan, but as resources run out and as safety declines, they're now looking further afield to europe to try and find the safety for their lives. >> i've got to tell you, covering the diplomacy and the failed diplomacy and especially

now with russia and iran reasserting its military support for the assad regime, it doesn't seem to be any diplomatic solution on the horizon for the civil war itself. i asked hillary clinton about what to do and what the united states should be doing to step up at a speech that she gave just this morning. >> what should america do to step up to the crisis of migration? >> the united states has to be at the table, has to be leading it. we were in a strong position to do that on haiti. i obviously want the united states to do our part, but i also want this to be a global response and so i hope that with all these leaders gathered, with pope francis addressing the united nations general assembly in just about two weeks, we can see something like that very visible with people literally making their commitments nation by nation. >> but in the past year, what is it, 1400 or 1500 who have come

to america. we're a much larger country than germany. why can't america take more people? >> well, i think the u.s. has an opportunity here to exert the type of leadership we've seen around refugee resettlement over the decades, where the u.s. has historically taken between 40% to 50% of all the refugees that need resettling and has allowed them to find a new safe life here in the states. in this instance, the u.n. has asked for the world to resettle as many as 130,000 refugees from around syria and to really fulfill that commitment and that history of leadership. we're asking the u.s. to take at least 65,000 refugees over the coming months and years as this crisis continues to get more serious. >> have you had any indication from the secretary of state or anybody else, the white house, that they're prepared to even propose that to congress? >> not as yet. we're pushing as hard as we can. we as an organization are

working extensively in greece, which is really the eye of the storm, with now an average of 3,000 new arrivals coming across from turkey every day with very, very little. frightened and escaping. so now is the time for the u.s. and other european countries to step up and show leadership on this issue. >> bob kitchen, thank you very much. thanks for being with us. >> thank you. and now to a frightening scene in las vegas. a british airways plane burst into flames just before takeoff. more than a dozen people were sent to the hospital with minor injuries. in this chaos, though, the 157 passengers are crediting the crew for a fast and orderly evacuation that may have helped save lives. nbc's hallie jackson has details. >> reporter: on the tarmac, a tire phiing scene. >> we have an aircraft on fire with people coming out of it. >> reporter: thick smoke swallowing a british airways plane, on fire on the runway. >> mayday, mayday. >> reporter: as all 157

passengers, including letha dunn, evacuated, sliding down emergency chutes. >> as soon as they hit the tarmac, they just sprinted because behind us are giant flames. >> reporter: at the airport, planes grounded, people watching in shock. >> please be off the plane. this is insane. >> reporter: airport officials say the boeing 777 was taxiing for takeoff to london's gatwick airport just after 4:00 p.m. when the left engine caught fire. the emergency chutes deployed as crews raced toward the plane hosing it down. four minutes later the fire was out. >> we're standing at the top of that chute and i can see the smoke and the flames and stuff. you're thinking that could go up at any time. as soon as the crew heard passengers say there was a fire, there was no hesitation whatsoever. the exit doors were open and they were literally in full swing. it was like clockwork for them to be honest. it was scary for them too. >> i just spoke with one of the pilots. he stated that he felt everybody

was off of the aircraft. >> i feel very lucky that i was on the ground and i feel really lucky right now. i'm glad everything went so well. congress is back. republicans are out there on the iran deal preparing to rally. it makes it a hot issue for the presidential candidates. >> listen, this is a bad deal. and most americans oppose it. most members of congress oppose it. including the top democrats on the foreign affairs committee in both the house and the senate. can a business have a mind? a subconscious. a knack for predicting the future. reflexes faster than the speed of thought. can a business have a spirit? can a business have a soul? can a business be...alive?

the white house now has enough senators to prevent a vote of disapproval on the iran deal, but the house is going through the motions with a vote likely later this week, according to the speaker. >> at this point i think the president has lost this debate with the american people. he lost it the moment that he agreed to a deal that allows

iran to stay on a path to develop a nuclear weapon. >> the california congressman adam schiff will join me in a moment to talk about the iran deal. and now for something a little different, stephen colbert making his debut as host of "the late show" on cbs last night. after a brief cameo by jon stewart and a monologue, colbert welcomed his first guest, george clooney. >> i wasn't invited to the wedding. >> no. >> we don't know each other. >> not enough for you to come to the wedding, no. it would have been really odd actually. >> i know i don't know you, but i just wanted to give you something. >> well, thank you. >> you can share that with your wife. >> can i open it now? >> please. please do. >> is it -- wow, it's -- it is really a tiffany thing. >> oh, come on. i'm on network now, man, of course it would be tiffany's. >> this isn't comedy central swag. >> it's engraved. >> it's engraved. >> what does it say? >> it says "i don't know you."

with all the action on the hill, joining me now, california congressman adam schiff, ranking democrat on the house intelligence committee. congressman, thank you very much. the iran deal, now there's talk that some republicans may want to postpone the vote. the rules committee will meet again later today. they're going to say they never got those side deals involving the international inspectors and iran, and, therefore, the clock hasn't even started. is this likely to have any effect? >> well, it may have an effect on whether we get to vote on the deal this week. i don't think it's going to change the overall trajectory. there are obviously enough votes in both the house and senate to sustain the deal, to sustain a potential presidential veto if it comes to that. but it does show some disawrray between the gop and a lack of coordination between the message in the senate where they're arguing for a vote and the message in the house where

they're arguing against a vote. i hope we can move forward. i think we know where the votes are effectively on this and i don't think it's in our national interests or that of our allies to put this off indefinitely. >> hillary clinton is trying to get on top of the e-mail problem with rather awkward series of interviews that were an apology or not an apology. there's a focus group that they have looked at in new hampshire, which says that the people -- that the voters out there really want to know about this and certainly the donors do i'm told, so it's not just a press issue. what can she do now and what about the trey gowdy committee that you're participating in, led by the republicans, of course, which we'll hear from her on october 22nd. >> i think the second is doing all that she can do and that is calling for the publication of all of her e-mails so the public can decide what's in those e-mails and what weight to give them. at the same time, the select committee on benghazi, which was supposed to be about the events in benghazi and what happened

and shedding new light on it really hasn't accomplished anything. 16 months and $4 million into this process, we still have no new insights. nothing really that we've learned, that the accountability review board didn't already cover in its report or the other seven or eight congressional investigations. so that's been very discouraging to see not only how this select committee has been hijacked as an arm of the republican national committee but the fact that the families were assured this would be a nonpartisan, fact-finding mission and it really has turned into nothing but an effort to somehow tear down secretary of state clinton. >> isn't she in some way responsible because of the slow release of the state department's vetting of those e-mails? they can't have their hearings until they see what's out there. >> well, the committee already has the benghazi e-mails, so we could go ahead with our own hearings, there's nothing holding us back. so no, i don't think this is the secretary's responsibility. indeed, had the secretary used

an official state department server, which would have been unclassified, as she acknowledges she should have used, the same issues would remain. that is were there classified e-mails not classified at the time but subsequently classified that went through this server. so we'd be going through the same thing, the same release of materials through the process, so i don't think you can lay that at the secretary's feet. but the responsibility for what we do in congress for whether our select committee that was supposed to be about the events that happened on that tragic day is essentially hijacked for political purposes. that's our own responsibility and we have nobody to blame but ourselves for that. >> and outside right now, donald trump, ted cruz and others, tea party advocates protesting against the iran deal. trump saying in an op-ed today that it was amateur hour and that he could have negotiated a better deal. your reaction? >> well, you know, he provides great entertainment, but i have to say there's a tragic comic

element to this, because the iran deal is deathly serious. this is among the most difficult decisions we face. and to treat it in the kind of slapstick fashion that i think donald trump brings to this is a disservice to a very serious issue. not surprisingly given this was a very hard negotiation with an implacable foe, there are many things to be said for this agreement and against it. but not this caricature that we're seeing out on the lawn in front of the capitol. >> thanks, congressman. and it was two sisters, two best friends, two fierce competitors. serena williams outlasted her older sister, venus, in three sets to win the u.s. open quarterfinals last night at arthur ashe stadium. serena is only two matches away from a calendar slam. the first since steffi graf won all four slams in the same year 27 years ago. serena will face off against an unseeded veteran who will be playing her first ever grand

it's covered by most health plans. today on "msnbc live," the clinton conundrum. hillary clinton looks to turn the page with a hard line on iran and a hard sell on the nuke deal she helped shape. but a day after that mea culpa will voters accept her apologies. that's our bing pulse question this afternoon. your votes, your voice, that's coming up. plus 24 hours after a triumphant release, what's next for kim davis and the now disputed marriage licenses given to same-sex couples while she was in jail. good to be with you for the

next two hours, i'm frances rivera in for thomas roberts. a huge rally for conservatives on capitol hill. donald trump, ted cruz, sarah palin and more all expected to speak out about the iran nuclear deal. a deal, mind you, that appears to have the votes to survive efforts to quash it in the house and senate. this morning hillary clinton was in washington speaking in favor of the deal. she said it's not perfect and it is strong and accomplishes u.s. goals in the region. she also attacked republican 2016 candidates for the way they have approached this debate. >> several republican candidates boast they'll tear up this agreement in 2017, more than a year after it's been implemented. that's not leadership. that's recklessness. >> donald trump and ted cruz are slated to speak later this hour. of course when that happens, we'll bring their remarks to you live right here. but last night trump gave a bit of a preview. >>
