that they're counting on his leadership. i said watch this space. you're nearly guaranteed that this story will change again some time very soon. are you enjoying being a grandparent? >> it is the best. >> do you wish you had more time, that this campaign didn't coincide with the kids being so little? >> well i think i'd be distraught if we didn't have facetime. >> oh, you do that a lot? >> all the time. >> have you considered using facetime instead of e-mail? >> actually -- actually i think that's really good advice. >> that's a good idea. >> not a bad idea, it's a good idea. >> so the saga continues. hillary clinton is once again answering questions over her use of a private server, after an fbi probe finds thousands of previously unreleased e-mails. plus -- >> we'll get ritd of the crime.

you'll be able to walk down the street without getting shot. right now you walk down the street, you get shot. look at the statistics. we'll straighten it out. >> donald trump once again tries to sell himself to minority voters claiming they'll be safer if he wins the white house. >> and the fallout from ryan lochte's tall tale about being robbed in rio continues. sponsors are severing ties potentially costing him millions after the international incident. good to be with you. it is tuesday, august 23rd. i'm frances rivera alongside louis burgdorf. donald trump is continuing his call for minority communities to get behind his campaign rallying in akron, ohio, last night. the republican nominee made a plea for hispanic support. a group that has been wary of his rhetoric linking immigration

and crime. >> poor hispanic and african-american citizens are the first to lose a job, or to see a pay cut, when we don't control our borders. hillary clinton's plan amounts to total and absolute total open borders. open borders. the democrats have failed completely in the inner cities. poverty, rejection, horrible education, no housing, no homes, no ownership. crime at levels that nobody's seen. you could go to war zones in countries that we're fighting, and it's safer than living in some of our inner cities. to the african-americans who i employ so many, so many people, to the hispanics, tremendous

people, what the hell do you have to lose? give me a chance. look, it is a disaster the way african-americans are living in many cases, and in many cases the way hispanics are living and i say it with such a deep-felt feeling. >> and the clinton campaign responded in part, it could not be clearer how much african-americans have to lose under donald trump. he is doubling down on insults, fear, and stereotypes that set our community back and further divide our country. but again, this is not surprising. this is a man who questions the citizenship of the first african-american president, has a disturbing pattern of courting white supremacists, and has been sued for housing discrimination against communities of color. and amid speculation of whether trump is evolving on his handling of immigration policy, he said this on fox news last night when asked about his previous comments about dwight

eisenhower's controversial deportation program from the '50s. >> the -- the actual seizure of human beings, taking them from their homes, and putting them in a detention center so that the -- their illegal alien status can be adjudicated, do you see -- >> you don't have to put them in a detention center. bill you're the first one to mention detention center. >> so you wouldn't do that -- >> we will find out who these people -- i never even heard the term. i'm not going to put them in a detention center. >> well you cited dwight eisenhower -- mr. trump, you cited dwight eisenhower on this program -- >> that was in 1952, who by the way, deported tremendous numbers of -- >> he rounded them up. he took them out. and so when you cited him as an example of someone that you -- >> no, i said -- >> -- the conclusion is. >> i said that it's something that has been done in a very strong manner. i don't agree with that. i'm not talking about detention centers. i have very, very good relationships with a lot of

people, a lot of hispanic people, we're talking about it. we're going to get rid of the bad ones. the bad ones are going to be out of here fast. and you know there are plenty of bad ones. gang members, gang leaders. you look at los angeles, you see what's happening. they're going out fast. they're going to be out of here so fast your head will spin. as far as the rest we're going to go through the process like they are now, perhaps with a lot more energy, and we're going to do it only through the system of laws. >> okay. >> the trump campaign is meanwhile canceling at least three events out west. nbc has learned from a campaign source that a major policy speech on immigration planned for thursday in battleground colorado has been postponed. this comes in the wake of his weekend meeting with his hispanic advisory council. he'll reportedly keep a fund-raising event in aspen on thursday. it's a similar story in las vegas, canceling a rally planned for friday. again reportedly keeping a fund-raiser in lake tahoe on the calendar. and a rally and a fund-raiser set for the end of the month in oregon may have both been scrubbed. according to oregon public broadcasting those cancellations come as a result of scheduling

changes due to the nominee's trip to louisiana last friday in the wake of flooding there. frances, it was a day of revelations and criticism involving the clinton foundation. this time new e-mail showing access donors got to hillary clinton's top aides during her time as secretary of state. in the middle of it all, bill clinton has announced that he will step back from the clinton foundation in a lengthy statement touting their work to combat disease and poverty, clinton said that if his wife is elected he will leave the foundation's board and stop fund-raising for it. his statement came just as the group judicial watch released e-mails regarding the foundation and then-secretary clinton state department aides with previously undisclosed exchanges that include clinton herself. the e-mails show huma abedin setting up meetings for the crown prince of bahrain who committed $32 million to their global initiative, and receiving multiple requests from donors or foundation staffers. clinton's campaign dismissed the

release as quote false attacks from a right wing organization adding no matter how this group tries to mischaracterize these documents, the fact remains that hillary clinton never took action as secretary of state because of the donations to the clinton foundation. while donald trump called the foundation the most corrupt enterprise in political history, and insisted that it should be shut down and investigated. >> the clintons made the state department into the same kind of pay for play operation as the arkansas government was. pay the clinton foundation huge sums of money and throw in some big speaking fees for bill clean and you got to play. you got to do what you wanted to do. the amounts involved, the favors done, and the significant number of times it was done, require an expedited investigation by a special prosecutor immediately, immediately, immediately.

after the fbi and department of justice whitewashed hillary clinton's e-mail crimes, they certainly cannot be trusted to quickly or impartially investigate hillary clinton's new crimes, which happen all the time. >> even more of hillary clinton's e-mails may see the light of day just before election day. a federal judge is pushing the state department to accelerate a review of nearly 15,000 previously undisclosed documents and e-mails recovered by the fbi during its investigation into clinton's use of private servers while she was secretary of state. while the judge has yet to set a schedule for the e-mails to be made public a justice department lawyer proposed a phased release beginning october 14th. but speaking to jimmy kimmel last night clinton brushed off concerns about a so-called october surprise. >> the state department said that they have to release 15,000 e-mails by the deadline is a

couple of days before the debate. are you concerned about that? >> no. >> because i would be terrified if my e-mails were released. >> but, jimmy, my e-mails are so boring. >> yeah. mine aren't. >> i'm embarrassed about that, they're so boring. and so we've already released, i don't know, 30,000-plus, so what's a few more. >> so at the end you're not concerned that there's going to be something that donald trump is able to use against you, that comes in at the last second? >> but he makes up stuff to use against me. so, if he would stick with reality i wouldn't have a worry in the world. >> donald trump's wife melania is threatening to sue several news outlets over what she calls defamatory statements about her past. trump's lawyer said yesterday that the daily mail had been put on notice over a report last week citing a slovenian magazine that she worked for an escort service during the 1990s. ha previously represented lk hogan in his successful defamation suit against gawker media. the article raised questions about melania's biography and immigration to the united states.

two of the websites that were warned by trump the bipartisan report and the inquisitor both posted apologies and retractions yesterday for citing that daily mail report. meanwhile according to the attorney politico has reportedly also been put on notice by mrs. trump regarding its reporting earlier this month on her immigration story. the website did not respond to request for comment from the boston globe. >> the olympics may be over by the fallout over ryan lochte's discredited claim of being robbed at gunpoint in brazil continues as four of his sponsors have now cut ties with the olympic athlete. swim airmaker speedo announced yesterday it was dropping the 32-year-old. the company released a statement that read in part, quote, we cannot condone behavior that is counter to the values this brand has long stood for. the company also announced it would donate a $50,000 portion of lochte's sponsorship fee to the charity save the children's brazilian operation. lochte responded saying that he respected speedo's decision. ralph lauren which outfitted

>> the only way to make sure that we can develop a vaccine is putting money into it. the researchers can't continue that research without making sure they have the resources to do it. >> this all comes as students headed back to school yesterday in miami-dade county the superintendent spent the first day trying to soothe parents' fears. >> they know what to do if they receive a call they are aware, they know the risk factors. and some of them have, you know, dressed in long sleeve shirts and pants. many of them applied insect repellent. but really, there are no worries. >> time now to get a check on your weather with nbc meteorologist bill karins. bill, what do we have in store for us today? >> well, louis, a lot of us are going to have a beautiful day today. but other people are starting to get i don't want to say worried but the radar is up. the attention is now being focused on the hurricane season, especially anyone that lives in the southeast. we're heading towards the peak of our season. things are starting to get active. here's where we are in the calendar. this is the peak september 10th

and now we quickly ramp things up. this is where we are. it's not a surprise that last night we had a new named system. we have tropical storm gaston that we're now tracking. three storms kind of in line out in the atlantic this is the fushtest one away from us, well off the coast of africa, well out here in the middle of the atlantic, just a weak tropical storm. then we have what's left of fiona dying quickly and then we have our tropical wave that's a little healthier. that's the one i'm most concerned with and everyone in the southeast is watching. tropical storm gaston will likely become a hurricane later today or tomorrow but harmlessly going out into the open atlantic. bermuda will still need to watch it. everybody else on the east coast looks safe from that storm. all of these line are different computer models that are giving us their best guest estimates of where it's going to be heading in the next five days. so we take it five days from right now, possibly brushing just north of the virgin islands, puerto rico, and then heading up somewhere near the bahamas. some of our tracks are trying to

take it in the general direction of florida. so that gets our attention immediately. the water's very warm along this path. so now it's just a question of can this storm get its act together? some of our computer models think it will be barely nothing at all. very, you know, just maybe some rain and squalls going through florida. other of our computer models think it could intensify and possibly be a hurricane so that's why we're going to need to watch that again the timing for florida in the bahamas would be sunday, monday, tuesday as we go into next week. so the forecast for today, i mentioned there's some beautiful weather out there, d.c. through the northeast, it's cool, it's refreshing, windows should be open, and it's going to be gorgeous southeast will get some showers and storms. you know, frances, i wouldn't doubt if there will be more than one person turning the heat on in their car this morning as they head especially in the northeast, temperatures in the 50s. >> you know how i feel about that. i told you about that yesterday but gaston hopefully you know, will be harmless. >> gaston will be the harmless one. it's the other one we're going to have to watch. >> just like the character from beauty and the beast, that's gaston. you should know that. >> i do very well.

>> there is an unidentified mythical-like creature creeping through the woods in maine. now look at this. this is a massive 10 foot long snake the same one they saw in june while it was eating a large mammal. this is found this weekend near a hiking trail in the city of westbrook. officials believe the skin belonged to a pet python that was left there. cops have named the unidentified reptile wessy a nod to the town and the loch ness monster. the twitter page over 1400 followers. and has plenty to say about politics here. and you know what? very interactive if wessie is watching, i tweeted and said you're going to be on msnbc in a couple minutes. oh, yeah, more tv time. yes, yes, thank you for the heads up. so we have a fan. >> pythons in maine? that's strange. >> that's what it is. and a twitter account as well. all right. still ahead we have all the highlights from major league

good morning, it's tuesday, august 23rd. i'm louis burgdorf alongside frances rivera we'll have more on hillary clinton's appearance on jimmy kimmel a lot bit later. >> it was a day of revelations and criticism involving the clinton foundation. this time new e-mails showing access donors got to hillary clinton's top aides during her time as secretary of state. and in the middle of it all, bill clinton has announced he will step back from the clinton foundation. in a lengthy statement touting their work to combat disease and poverty, clinton says that if his wife is elected he will leave the foundation's board and stop fund-raising for it. his statement came just as the conference group judicial watch released 725 pages of e-mails involving the foundation, and then-secretary clinton's state department aides with 20 previously undisclosed exchanges that include clinton herself. the e-mails show clinton's top aide huma abedin setting up a meeting for the crown prince of

bahrain who committed $32 million to their global initiative, and receiving multiple requests from donors or foundation staffers. clinton's campaign dismissed the release as, quote, false attacks from a right wing organization adding, no matter how this group tries to mischaracterize these documents, the fact remains that hillary clinton never took action as secretary of state because of donations to the clinton foundation. while donald trump called the foundation the most corrupt enterprise in political history and insisted it be shut down and investigated. >> the clintons made the state department into the same kind of pay for play operation as the arkansas government was. pay the clinton foundation huge sums of money and throw in some big speaking fees for bill clinton, and you got to play. you got to do what you wanted to do. the amounts involve d, the favos done and the significant number of times it was done require an

expedited investigation by a special prosecutor immediately, immediately, immediately. after the fbi and department of justice whitewashed hillary clinton's e-mail crimes they certainly cannot be trusted to quickly or impartially investigate hillary clinton's new crimes, which happen all the time. >> and even more of hillary clinton's e-mails may see the light of day just before election day. a federal judge is pushing the state department to accelerate a review of nearly 15,000 previously undisclosed documents in e-mails recovered by the fbi during its investigation into clinton's use of private servers while she was secretary of state. while the judge has yet to set a schedule for the e-mails to be made public, a judge proposed a phased release beginning october 14th. but speaking to jimmy kimmel last night, clinton brushed off concern about a so-called october surprise.

>> the state department said that they have to release 15,000 e-mails by the deadline is a couple of days before the debate. are you concerned about that? >> no. >> because i would be terrified if my e-mails were released. >> but, jimmy, my e-mails are so boring. >> yeah. mine aren't. >> i'm embarrassed about that, they're so boring. and so we've already released, i don't know, 30,000-plus, so what's a few more. >> so at the end you're not concerned that there's going to be something that donald trump is able to use against you, that comes in at the last second? >> but he makes up stuff to use against me. so, if he would stick with reality i wouldn't have a worry in the world. >> donald trump is continuing his call for minority communities to get behind his campaign. rallying in akron, ohio, last night the republican nominee made a plea for hispanic support, a group that has been wary of his rhetoric linking immigration and crime. >> poor hispanic and african-american citizens are

the first to lose a job, or to see a pay cut when we don't control our borders. hillary clinton's plan amounts to total and absolute total open borders. open borders. the democrats have failed completely in the inner cities. poverty, rejection, horrible education, no housing, no homes, no ownership. crime at levels that nobody's seen. you could go to war zones in countries that we're fighting, and it's safer than living in some of our inner cities. to the african-americans who i employ so many, so many people, to the hispanics, tremendous people, what the hell do you have to lose? give me a chance.

look, it is a disaster the way african-americans are living in many cases, and in many cases the way hispanics are living and i say it with such a deep-felt feeling. >> as you'd expect the clinton campaign responded in part, it could not be clearer how much african-americans have to lose under donald trump. he is doubling down on insults, fear, and stereotypes that set our community back and further divide our country. but again, this is not surprising. they say, this is a man who questions the citizenship of the first african-american president, has a disturbing pattern of courting white supremacists, and has been sued for housing discrimination against communities of color. and amid speculation of whether trump is evolving on his handling of immigration policy, he said this on fox news last night when asked about his previous comments about dwight eisenhower's controversial deportation program from the '50s. >> the -- the actual seizure of

human beings, taking them from their homes, and putting them in a detention center so that the -- their illegal alien status can be adjudicated, do you see -- >> you don't have to put them in a detention center. bill you're the first one to mention detention center. you don't have to put them in a detention center. >> so you wouldn't do that -- you would keep them in their homes -- >> no, i never even heard the term. i'm not going to put them in a detention center, no. >> well you cited dwight eisenhower -- mr. trump, you cited dwight eisenhower on this program -- >> that was in 1952, who by the way, deported tremendous numbers of -- >> he rounded them up. he took them out. and so when you cited him as an example of someone that you -- >> no, i said -- would emulate that's what the conclusion is. >> i said that it's something that has been done in a very strong manner. i don't agree with that. i'm not talking about detention centers. i have very, very good relationships with a lot of people, a lot of hispanic people, we're talking about it. we're going to get rid of the bad ones. the bad ones are going to be out

of here fast. and you know there are plenty of bad ones. gang members, gang leaders. you look at los angeles, you see what's happening. they're going out fast. they're going to be out of here so fast your head will spin. as far as the rest we're going to go through the process like they are now, perhaps with a lot more energy, and we're going to do it only through the system of laws. >> okay. let's turn now to business where one of the nation's largest banks is being fined by the consumer financial protection bureau for illegal student loan practices. cnbc's hadley gamble joins us live from london. hadley, what do you have for us this morning on that and epi pens are actually increasing in price as well which is a big story. >> exactly, louis. looks like the government is slapping wells fargo with a $3.6 million fee. they say that essentially the bank was not only charging illegal fees to on time borrowers but they were also not explaining to borrowers that there were ways to avoid fees and even failing to correct credit reports. so some big problems there for wells fargo.

another story is what's happening with epi pen. basically severe allergy sufferers are required by their doctors to carry at least two of these pens athe all times because it's a life saving drug. and now with prices popping up about $600 per set of these pens, they're really feeling a price pinch. and of course all eyes this week from investors on the federal reserve wondering what janet yellen is going to say about a potential rate hike later this week in jackson hole, wyoming, the big question is how much they're going to raise rates and when so a lot of questions as we move forward into the week. >> hadley gamble live from london. thanks so much. frances? >> to the fallout over ryan lochte's discredited claim of being robbed at gunpoint in brazil. it continues as four of his sponsors have now cut ties with the olympic athlete. swim wearmaker speedo announced yesterday it was dropping the 32-year-old. the company released a statement that read in part we cannot condone behavior that is counter to the values this brand has long stood for. the company also announced it would donate a $50,000 portion
