s. good to to be with you on a saturday. it's 2:00 p.m. in the east. 11:00 a.m. in las vegas where donald trump is expected to speak any minute at the treasure island casino. the presumptive republican nominee is on a fundraising swing amid new reports of a new effort to unseat trump at next month's gop convention. in orlando new questions today about nightclub shooter omar mateen's gun permit. a psychologist denies examining mateen. police charged a man with sexual assault after discovering 12 girls ranging in age from six months to 18 years old inside his home. we start in las vegas where donald trump will take the stage any minute as part of a weekend

fundraising tour. he's been asking republicans to rally around his campaign. trump's fundraising tour comes at a time of deep divisions within the republican party. dozens of gop delegates are looking to change party rules. house speaker paul ryan continues to walk the fine line of supporting his party's presumptive nominee. in an interview to air tomorrow on "meet the press" ryan is telling his members to vote their conscience. >> the last thing i would do is tell anybody to do something that is contrary to their conscien conscience. of course, i wouldn't do that. chuck, i get it. it's a strange situation. it's a unique nominee, but i feel as a speaker of the house i should not be leading some kaz m in the middle of the party. >> for more the discourse between trump and the gop i'm joined by political reporter

leon caldwell and christopher meddler. to both of you, appreciate you being with me. leanne, you have mixed messages from donald trump. last night talking party unity in houston. >> that's absolutely right. party unity is not what is happening. after trump responded to the orlando massacre, doubling down on his ban against muslims from entering the country. on capitol hill, you had people not wanting to talk about it. you had very few come to his side and they said, look, let's not talk about donald trump right now. you have a lot of tensions happening within the party. not only members who are running for re-election and down ballot races in the house and the senate but the republican national committee getting behind trump. they're uneasy with what he's doing. he's not listening to their suggestions of acting more

presidential, and sticking to the issues and not being divisive. it's a difficult time for the republican party now. >> this is what he's saying in his own words. he's talking about it before talking about that party unity. let's take a listen. >> the party is -- the party is actually liking me. you know, i'm an outsider. i'm an outsider. and historically they don't love the outsiders, but i think they're starting to like me. maybe there will be a few. you don't hear about the tremendous numbers of people -- and i'm talking about the politicians that are totally supportive. if one person raises a little question, it's like did you hear? let me tell you, folks, we have tremendous support. >> you contrast those words with just days before threatening his gop critics to be quiet. here is him again. >> just be quiet to the leaders because they have to get tougher, sharper, smarter. we have to have our republicans either stick together or let me

do it by myself. i'll do very well. >> stick together or do it by myself. can he win without the party's help? >> it's going to be difficult, especially since he is relying on the party to do the majority of his work. he's relying on the party to do his data operation, which is critical in a presidential campaign these days. he's relying on the party to do a lot of fundraising for him. and a lot of ground game get out the vote effort. and so, you know, this is a candidate who has unfavorables where only 29% of people like donald trump. and that's inclusive in the republican party. he's just as divided -- divisive. it's going to be very difficult for trump to do it on his own. but he did it during the primary on his own, so, you know, i think that a lot of people are done predicting what could happen with donald trump, but, you know, in a general election, the map is not in his favor. >> you consider, also,

christopher, that the associated press is reporting when it comes to his ground game operationally he only has 30 field staffers in swing states which is a shockingly low number. >> yeah. so there are a couple of problems here. look, the party is very supportive of the nominee, but there are a number of things in which, you know, members of the party strategists simply degr degree -- disagree on the way he's approaching the general election. that's the reality. at the risk of stating the obvious, that is, in fact, the reality. he does need the party in order to be successful. >> it's also going to be really crucial, christopher, i want to factor this in, stop trump forces are launching a new effort. speaking to what paul ryan was calling for, it's including voting your conscience. that conscience clause that would allow delegates bound to trump to vote against had im.

what are you hearing from people inside the party about that? >>well, what i'm hearing is that would even make the party in an uproar. i don't think that's the way to do it. i don't think that's the way to do it at all. keep in mind, he is the presumptive nominee. we have to respect the fact that in the primaries what occurred is these are the folks who said this should be the nominee. we cannot disenfranchise that entire voting population and simply choose a candidate. that's not the way the system works. you know, the concern is the fact that he needs to stay on message. there is so much relative to being able to look at the clinton record on national security, there's so much to look at relative to the economy. >> right. >> this appears to be, if she wins, an additional term of obama.

those are the conversations we need to engage in. instead, as a strategists what i'm seeing is a series of conversations, frankly, are not related to anything unless he makes the pivot and keeps that pivot. keep in mind, the number one rule as a strategies, i will tell you the number one rule is to find your opponent before they define you. she appears to be defining him. and it's not good. >> i had to bring up these numbers when it comes to unfavorables with trump's kind of spiking again. the latest washington post poll puts him at 70%. bloom burg he has an unfavorable rating of 66%. based on the polls the majority of americans don't like him. >> it's going to be difficult. the only thing going for him is that hillary clinton also has high unfavorables.

but these are the two most unpopular candidates that this country has had running for presidency in modern politics. but hillary clinton's unfavorables aren't even as high as his. he's going to have to make some dramatic changes. that's what the party leaders want him to do. they recognize this and see it as problematic. and, you know, one day he gives a very scripted speech on a tell prompter where party leaders come out and applaud him. the next day he's on twitter and back on, you know, banning a group of people from coming into the country. and so it's very erratic and those are words that have been used to describe him, and if he continues to be that way, then it's going to be difficult for the country to support him. >> we're talking about the timeline, too, one month away from the first day of the convention in cleveland. thank you for being with us.

turning to terror in orlando. new questions about shorter omar mateen's gun. a psychologist never administrated the test despite her name being on her gun permit. the test determined that the employee is mentally and emotionally stable. in a statement provided by her attorney to nbc news, the doctor said -- joining me now from orlando is nbc sara dayloff. what are we finding in the investigation? >> reporter: we're learning more about omar mateen's actions leading up to the shooting. indications he may have been preparing to die.

he transferred his ownership share of a home to his sister for about $10. he made purchases on a credit card that one official said was done almost as if he never expected to have to pay the purchases back. his want wife continues to act as a witness or cooperate as a witness with authorities. one source telling nbc news she's handed over electronics including an ipad, laptops, and cell phones. now this, as funerals continue for the victims in this case. some being lain to rest in puerto rico. some here in florida. we have a spot of bright news for you, francis. at least four more people -- four more of the wounded have been released from the hospital. we know of two that have been upgraded from critical condition. >> you had a chance to speak with the orlando police chief earlier today. what more did he tell you about the investigation and how his team is holding up. >> reporter: important questions right now, francis. the fbi continues to process the

scene inside that nightclub. orlando police right now working in more of a support role. and the chief continues to praise the men and women on his force for their actions that night. >> before the incident our s.w.a.t. team responded to two other hostage standoffs and were very busy. in a way, that was a blessing because those two incidents got them in that mind set and got them ready for this incident that happened here. >> reporter: and several memorials plan to honor the victims and the first responders of this crisis. this weekend, francis, an overwhelming outpour of love and support for the orlando community. >> sara, thank you. a live look at yosemite national park where president obama is expected to speak soon. it's part of the every kid in a park initiative of the white house.

i see children in the driveway. i'm like there's something not right here. there's never a school bus. >> reporter: the neighbor felt she had to call authorities. >> they looked sad and fearful every time you see them. that made me call. >> reporter: the 18-year-old's parents in custody are believed to be members of the ammish community. police reached out to sources with knowledge of the amish community with help in the case. authorities don't know how long the girls were living in the house and holding all three adults on $1 million bail. >> reporter: i spoke to the police lieutenant this morning. he wouldn't say exactly what they pulled out of the house. he did say they're investigating the evidence. kaplan has been charged with three counts of assault, also, with unlawful contact with a minor. he remains in custody this afternoon. francis. >> more gran for us in pennsylvania. thank you. a 5-year-old boy in fair condition after he was attacked by a mountain lion in aspen,

gettysburg to seneca falls. since i took office, i've been proud to build on the work of all those giants that came before me to support our national resources and to help all americans get out into the great outdoors. we've protected more than 265 million acres of public lands and waters. [ applause ] that's more than any administration in history. that does include this big body of water on the pacific ocean, but we've already done the second most public lands of any administration in history. we've seen more victories under the endangered species act than any previous administration from black bears in louisiana to sea turtl turtles in florida. we're restoring vulnerable ecosystems like the grove of

giant sequoias here. we've designated new monuments and historic sites that better reflect the story of all of our people. so on with those famous sites like gettysburg, we can also see monuments to caesar chavez, pullman porter in chicago. we have more work to do to preserve our lands and culture and our history. we're not done yet. in all last year, more than 305 people visited american's national parks. for this centennial, we're asking all americans to find your park so everyone, including those from underserved communities can experience these wonders. >> a few words from president obama with the beautiful backdrop of yosemite national park in the celebration of the 100th national park service. he's there with the first lady and his daughters. a nice way to spend time with family there urging other

families to visit national parks, of course, a day ahead of father's day. so the president there at yosemite national park. on to the clinton campaign on the echbsive this weekend expanding the massive general action ad by $20.9 million with a little more than a month to the democratic convention, sanders hasn't conceded. washington post saying sanders could endorse clinton. jeff weaver saying the ongoing policy talks between the two campaigns will determine the time line of an endorsement. i want to bring in kasie hunt. amid this, no campaign event scheduled for hillary clinton today because of the new addition to the clinton family. >> a new addition to the clinton family, indeed, francis. chelsea clinton and her husband announcing the birth of their baby boy, grandson for bill and hillary clinton ayden clinton is his name. chelsea clinton tweeting she's overwhelmed with gratitude and

love. hillary clinton putting out a statement saying that both mom and baby are doing well. and they're very excited about the birth of this new grandchild, francis. >> she's focussing on that, but we also know with a lot of talk who will be hillary clinton's running mate. elizabeth warren was speaking in new hampshire to democrats there at their con vejs, and attack mode hitting donald trump while speaking to the people at her party. and democrats particularly calling him a fraudster in chief among others. >> elizabeth warren is working on the attack dog against donald trump role that has gotten her a lot of attention. she's somebody that is especially the left wing of the democratic party has been excited about for years. over the course of recent months, she's proven to be a pretty sharp attacker. that, of course, has chatter about whether she's being considered for vice president or how likely she is to be selected on the rise. she visited brooklyn

headquarters on friday to cheers for clinton's staffers. but she was back out on the campaign trail while hillary clinton, of course, is at home with the new family addition. warren was in new hampshire attacking trump. take a look. >> so, look, we can whine about donald trump, we can whimper about donald trump, or we can fight back. i'm fighting back. me, i'm fighting back. you bet. and hillary clinton is fighting back! democrats are fighting back. here is the best part. america is fighting back. >> i think we can expect elizabeth warren to be delivering similar speeches and working against donald trump no matter what happens with the vice presidential selection. >> interesting to see with her name keep coming up. kasie hunt, thank you so much for that. as the two democratic campaigns try to achieve a level of surprise. donald trump is taking advantage of the divisions within their

party. >> we've trying to get bernie's people. a lot of those bernie people hate hillary clinton. crooked hillary, as we call her. and, of course, bernie hates hillary clinton. we know that. >> joining me to discuss it democratic strategies and back with us is leigh ann caldwell. great to have the conversation with you. the clinton campaign strategy in run pretty much running ads. >> hillary clinton is known by every single voter, for the most part, in the united states. some voters who are on the younger side, especially the millennial's may not be as familiar with her as they think. they have a perception of who they think she is. the buy graph caption ads

reminds them of her experience and history. and setting up for the contrast with donald trump who doesn't have any experience in government. i think from that point of view, it's a smart strategy but she's not going to change too many minds because some many people know who she is. >> we were talking about it with clinton's unfavorable high. when it comes to the ads, will it help soften her especially given the quirky ads? mocking the hand there. can she stick with that with the super packs kind of doing the mocking on their side? >> absolutely for the time being now. we still are before the convention. so she still has almost five months until the election. this is the time in the race where they try to set the tone of how they want their campaigns to be known. and a standard campaign. and so as what fhe said, contrat

is the keyword here. while donald trump is out and he doesn't have any ads on-air, and his tone is more divisive. hillary clinton is trying to contrast not only her background, but also that tone. she has very inspiring ads that are out and that's the message she wants to spend while a lot of negative attention is surrounding donald trump right now. >> especially with the associated press reporting that donald trump has a 30 field staff out there in the swing states, too. and the dnc coming out with a statement today. you know, how much is the texdn going to use that in showing what kind of operation he has and what he's lacking? >> well, i mean, they're licking their chops. 30 staffers divided anywhere from 8 to 11 states is not a

lot. it shows how small the trump operation is as opposed to a more robust effort. >> hang on. i apologize for interrupting. i want to go to las vegas where donald trump is speaking there at treasure island. we'll listen and talk about it on the other side. >> okay. >> they have, you know, the machines. and they didn't bring enough machines. and i don't know if the great wayne newton has that problem when he performs, but i love him. i'll talk about him in a second. we have to be careful. let's say i came out 10 or 15 minutes ago. even though there are thousands of people outside, all of the conference room, the whole hotel is filled. you've never had anything like this. he owns it. if i had like three empty seats. and they're piling into the room. i think it's time we begin. do we agree?

okay. we have amazing people here. amazing friends are here. and it's been going really well. we read about this insurgent group. you know, the same group i beat is insurgent. they're trying to get delegates. i thought they already tried that. i mean, i could give you names but i won't because it's meaningless. first of all, it's illegal. second of all, you can't do it. third of all, we -- not me, we got 14 almost 14 million votes. 14 million votes in the primaries. so that's more votes than ever received in the primaries in the history of the republican party. okay. we beat a lot of people. 16 people. a total 7717 including myself. one after another. boom. boom. boom. it was a beautiful thing to

behold. okay. a beautiful thing. it was a beautiful thing. yeah. that's great. filling them in. that's right. isn't it better we're starting now. we have to. they're not happy outside but what the heck are we going to do? so it was a beautiful thing to behold. think of this, so almost 14 million votes. we won 36/37 states, which is -- others won none. people that won none are saying maybe we can get something at the convention. doesn't work that way, folks. you would have -- because we have, you know, one of the things that we'll say we have by far the most loyal followers. right. you know, other of the candidates, i mean, take a look at this today. they've never had anything like this where every room is full, every restaurant is loaded with people. i hope you put close circuit in,

i think you did. this guy doesn't hold back. believe me. when we get 37 states, when we get 37 states -- [ cheers and applause ] thank you, thank you, officers. thank you. thank you. that's very nice. thank you. by the way, how great are our police? okay. they don't get enough credit. they don't get enough credit. they take abuse. they don't get the credit they deserve. believe me. so we won 37 states.

we won 14 million. we beat ronald reagan, whom we love, we beat richard nixon, we beat everybody. we beat bush. we beat the bushes. and by a lot. i don't mean we like edged it. i don't mean, like, you know, i mean by a lot! and now you have a couple of guys that were badly defeated and they're trying to organize maybe, like, a little bit of a delegate revolt. maybe. number one, you know, reince priebus -- you know what that is? rnc. they put out a public state. you're not allowed to do it. how would you like to have a party where we start it off with 17 or 18 people, actually, including somebody i won't mention, because i'm not looking to embarrass anybody, but it's 18 if you want to include

somebody. okay. but how would you like to have a party -- and he's married to a great lawyer. she understands this better than wayne but wayne has a better voice. how would you like to have a party where myself and others travel the country and work for a long time. that was shorter than i thought. i was supposed to maybe be able to pull it out at the convention and i pulled it out two months before the convention. do you remember -- do you remember what they said 1237. that's the delegates. he cannot reach that number. he cannot reach that number. and i kept saying, what's the big deal? and one of the people, who probably hasn't quite given up yet -- one of the people was trying to buy up all the second ballot people, right. i kept saying let them have them. it's expensive to get them.

and, by the way, i spent less money than any other candidate and i ended up in first place and they ended up -- so now i hear after beating them fair and square. i beat them fair and square. a couple of commentators that are negative people, actually, most of them are. a couple of commentators that are negative people who said whether you like it or you don't. he beat them fair and square. and then they said he didn't beat them by a little bit. he beat them by a lot. we beat them by a lot. how would you like to have a party where somebody goes out and beats them by a lot and wins not only the vote. largest in the history of the party. not only wins 37 states and nobody was remotely close. some of these guys had none. how would you like to have that?

the guy is suets an all-time record get the almost 14 million votes over a period of nine months. he gets 37 states, he gets tremendous support, he has sold out arenas, no matter where he goes. yesterday in houston, people said they have never seen crowds like that. one of the reporters, a good reporter, actually, from nbc, hallie said are your crowds as big as they used to? i said they're bigger. they're actually bigger. no, they're bigger. you had to see houston, texas last night. a big arena that held about 5,000. it's not a big one, but it was the biggest one we could get on short notice. on short notice we had a line that went five abreast forever. they had helicopters over. they couldn't believe what they were seeing. they've never seen anything like

it. and our crowds are bigger. our enthusiasm is more. a poll came out oan, a very good poll. it's a good group of people, a poll oan came out where i'm statistically even with crooked hillary. and she is crooked, folks. believe me. she is crooked. >> hillary clinton doesn't have -- >> this being out touted as a fundraising tour. we continue to listen to donald trump in the past seven minutes. i want to bring back in our guests. actually, i want to go back. he's addressing hillary clinton. let's listen again to donald trump. >> you look at what she's done. you look. okay. how would you like to be in a party where trump wins? when trumps keeps winning. when trump has the biggest cries. where trump gets, by the way, the highest ratings in the

history of television. they had a story in variety -- i don't like to brag but we have to brag. >> i want to bring in our guests. as you were hearing, i'm curious to see your observations. we took that about seven or eight minutes ago, in which he touted the presence of intente n entertainentertai entertainer wayne newton there. the crowds clenching the nomination months before the convention, beating presidents reagan and bush. before we hear anything, he mentioned hillary clinton, which he moved on to the bragging. shouldn't he be taking the time to address party unity, especially with the troubles and continued push by gop delegates to stop him at the convention? shouldn't he take advantage of the time? >> absolutely. he's fixated on the republican primary that is already pasted. he's fixated on republicans who don't like him. who want to challenge him.

right now that's not his main opponent. yes, there are potential challenges to his nomination at the convention, right now these are justemerging. we don't know the size of these. we know he's facing hillary clinton in november on election day. he's barely even mentioning her. he's so fixated on the past. and not what he needs to do to win. >> yeah, even bringing up, at one point, even the ratings, highest rated debates he's had. when you're talking about this, you're listening to donald trump and you consider the attacks we heard from elizabeth warren earlier today really going at it. just kind of a lit lit any of attacks against donald trump. hillary clinton not on the campaign trail, obviously, because her grandson. is it shocking? is a matter of time we'll hear the poke han tus?

>> i'm a political consultant and it was remarkble to hear the speech. i did hear is the fear. donald trump is in essence reciting his résume about how great he did because i think he sees that republicans are emigrating away from his candidacy enhas masse. he's trying to remind the people that he beat the expectations. you got to stick with me. i think he's trying to remind them almost in that way point by point. it was like a residenceation of the highlights of the republican primary as opposed to a general election message. to me, i think it's a real sign he smells or senses that defections are coming whether republican delegates or republican party leaders and he's trying to hold on to his base. that's why it's still a republican primary message and not a general election message. >> we'll see how much longer it take for the pivot when it comes to the message and the operation

and the ground game. to both of you, thank you very much. up next we'll turn back to the nightclub shooting in orlando and what role omar ma teen's wife may have had in the activities. a car that can see trouble and stop itself to avoid it. when the insurance institute for highway safety tested front crash prevention nobody beat subaru models with eyesight. not toyota. not ford or any other brand. subaru eyesight. an extra set of eyes, every time you drive. defianour citracal bones. easily absorbed calcium plus vitamin d. defy bone aging with citracal maximum. our highest level of calcium plus d. mary buys a little lamb.

we turn back to orlando where the fbi is investigating omar mateen's wife. she told them she was worried her husband might carry out an attack and she pleaded with him not to do anything violent. the gunman sent a text message to his wife asking "do you see what is happening?" salman is cooperating with investigators. she's not been charged in this case. with me now is former federal prosecutor doug berns. as we look into this, we know she's cooperating and passed on devices, laptop, iphone, ipad. what do authorities need to

determine if they are going to charge her with a crime. >> first off, you know, they interviewed her a couple of times. so, you know, i've seen some reports, you know, she may have told them things that wasn't truthful. they need to figure that out. lying to a federal agent than is in different states. more important avenue, obviously, is what everybody has been discussing, which is, you know, was she somehow an accessory to the crime. there were some reports and again, the investigators will look at the fact what you read in the media may not be what is developing. if she drove him to a location, for example, knowing he was scoping it out and that's the key. if she didn't know, obviously, that's different. she could be charged under federal law as an accessory to the crime which is the same liability as the person who did the crime. >> what is the difference of accessory of the crime and conspirator. >> i'm glad you asked me. an accessory is someone that

helps a crime. hypothetical can you drive me to the bank. i'm an accessory. i want to rob a bank. i want to do it with you. will you agree with me. i said, i agree, we'll do it together and we take some step toward it. that's a conspiracy. to answer your question based on the facts of this case, it's less likely it's a conspiracy theory. i think there may possibly be some liability for being an accesso accessory. i must note, i was discussing it with a lawyer i'm close with. you have dur less. if she were being forced, intimidated. there were reports chef afraid of him. that's the crime of duress. shoot him or i'll kill you. i'm under duress. >> is it literally her word in figuring this out? >> that's a good question. they're going to, you know, look, because you mentioned it

at the outset. look closely at phones, computers, messages. because the point is, people's only word sometimes are less reliable than objective stuff. then, of course, the question is where is she? there's reports she's not in the area. >> and she's in seclusion and obtaining a lawyer are the reports. thank you very much. i appreciate it. thank you. i want to bring in fromm e irvine, california brian levin. thank you for being with us. y claims from his former wife he was abusive and also claims from a gun shop owners that he was there asking for body armor, ammunition, but they didn't have any identifying information. are these signs that were missed? >> possibly. here is the problem. the fbi is reigned in by laws

and regulations. let's say a case comes up inconclusive or they close it. that's it. that's why we have to change starting monday this insane loophole of people who have been on the terror lists. whether the no fly lists. at least making some adapgs so we can protect people's civil liberties, but get potential ticking time bombs. there's an excellent article out for tomorrow's "new york times" which talks about his history of aggressi aggression. there's another article in "the "daily beast"" which talks about his family's chaotic situation. i wrote some years ago, oftentimes these types of symbolic killers and terrorists are a chaotic mix of personal failures and aggrievement coupled with an ideology that can help amplify and direct it. he said in the past that he was for groups like hezbollah, which was a shia group and al qaeda a

sunni group and they cant stand each other. it appears putting this together, it's someone who well had a problem with instability, and very well maybe clinically. there's talk about steroid use during the attack. he was allegedly in communication with a medical professional about medication. so this, perhaps, is the intersection of both mental instability along with the hatreds that boiled and seethed that then went into an ideology. this is someone we commonly see people who feel they're disrespected and then they adhere to an ideology where they can be a big shot. we might have seen that here. >> brian, how do you get that line when those intersect when it comes to mental illness and radicallization? >> great point. one of the things we see with these kinds of folks, there are three types. aid logically motivated,

religious, political, or both. psych lonlically dangerous. a cognitive impairment or sociopath. personal benefit or revenge. it can be a mix. what i think we have is a mixture. he can adhere to this stereotypes which labels certain people and legitimate targets for scapegoat and aggression. indeed, if he's conflict the about his sexuality. >> even more complicating. brian levin, thank you very much. as the investigation into the orlando killer continues, questions remain about the fbi's ability to neutralize suspected terrorists before they carry out

attacks. james comey stood by the work of his agent. >> we'll work all day and all night to understand the path to the terrible night. we're going to look hard at our own work to see whether there is something we should have done differently. so far the honest answer is, i don't think so. michael hirsch joins me now. how has it changed in your view and why has the fbi been slow to adapt to it? >> the fbi traditionally would look for operational links. evidence of travel abroad. we saw this both in a case of omar ma teen and one of the boston marathon bombingers, tamerlan tsarnaev that effectively the fbi after it satisfied itself there were no organizational links to other individuals or groups, effectively drop those investigations. of course, both those men went

on to commit these horrible atrocities. so that's one way in which the fbi has been slow to realize that in this anyone of lone wolf terrorism you don't have to have evidence of operational links to isis at all. you don't have to have a travel abroad. this is a another important data point they are just trying to get their arms around now. we know that the fbi has changed its tactics somewhat but only in the last few years >>well, do you take into consideration the publics' confidence in the government, you know, efforts to pull back when it comes to these kind of terror attacks. nbc survey monkey poll confidence in the government's ability to do that has dropped. so, so, what is being changed on an tangible sense for federal agencies try to do and eliminate these blind spots? >> well, interestingly, since the time the fbi interviewed both tamerlan tsarnaev of the boston marathon bomber and omar

mateen in 2013/2014. in that short period of time they have gbegun to change and build up networks inside communities. they developed share responsibility committees which bring in local e moms and educators, psychologists to identify troubled individuals before they act and try to get them help. at the time they interviewed these two individuals, they didn't have a lot of this in place. there was no method by which they the family of mateen, perhaps, or his acquaint yents that saw violence there is no one for them to call. >> thank you very much for being with me. and that does it for me ones in msnbc. ammar mohyeldin picks up our coverage from here. every time i drive. ...want my number? and cash back for driving safe. and the power to automatically find your car...
