[ female announcer ] to nurses everywhere, thank you, from johnson & johnson. i'm alex witt here at msnbc ha headquarters and here's what's happening. >> disrespects our flag. get that [ bleep ] off our field. >> reaction from the sports world. a look at whether minorities of any race feel this is president represents their interests. critical condition for the latest republican health care bill. the criticism president trump has for senator john mccain and what this means for the future of your medical costs. and a race against time as two natural disasters. a look at the struggle right now to save lives in both puerto rico and mexico. we begin with politics and

hillary clinton with a fresh attack against former fbi direct direct director james comey. here's what hillary clinton said on whether she would have fired comey on whether she would have won the presidency. >> i would have certainly looked hard at it. as i write in the book, much of what he did violated department of justice protocol. it was unprecedented. it was outside the bounds of what prosecutes do, let alone an investigator, which is what his job was. now, would i believe strongly and the case i make in the book is separate out what he did to me, which i think was wrong, unprecedented and ultimately cost me the election because of the october 28th letter. and what he was doing on russia. >> meanwhile new reaction to president trump's latest feud, this time outside of the belt way. going after nfl players like colin kaepernick for taking a knee. president trump also taking to

twitter to disinvite golden state warriors guard steph curry to the white house. nba union president chris paul among those responding to the president tweeting with everything that's going on in our country, why are you focused on who's kneeling and visiting the white house? >> let's go to new jersey, not too far from the president's estate. kelly o'donnell is there today. let's get to the latest fallout. what are you seeing with regard to the president's tweets? >> reporter: well, it's interesting that this instance where the president is speaking out about the protest by those players is getting so much attention and drawing so much reaction. he has said some similar things criticizing the protest during the national anthem before and it didn't kind of kick off this much of a response where we're seeing players, player communities like the unions, family members of players using twitter as well, and as you just showed that example of sort of asking the president with

everything that he is doing why now. is he not hearing the concerns expressed by these players? really stirring the political pot this weekend. of course, when it falls on i a weekend as well you have a lot of sports fans attention who are tuned in. raising the question does this draw more support to those athletes that they choose to protest at any of the games this weekend. so the president has said this kind of thing before. it's particularly hitting a note this weekend. this comes at a time as well, alex, when he has got huge issues, both on the foreign policy front, with north korea, and also with iran and the nuclear deal and decisions he has to make in the next two weeks about whether to continue the u.s. agreement with six countries involving the north -- i'm sorry, the iranian nuclear program. and here at home his domestic agenda going into a week he had hoped to have a vote on a gop sponsored bill that would make changes to the health care law. it's grown as graham cassidy.

it doesn't have the votes right now. we've seen the president talk about john mccain public no vote saying he could not support this latest piece of legislation. that's a big loss for the president. there aren't enough republicans who are publicly supporting it. it's expected that it will be very narrow. perhaps it will not even come to the floor if they don't get the votes. the president is certainly sparking a conversation at a time when he does have serious issues, both international and his own domestic agenda on the line. >> kelly o'donnell. thank you very much, kelly. sports and politics continue to dominate the headlines after president trump at a rally in alabama last night suggested that nfl football players should be removed from the field and fired should they protest during the pregame national anthem. in a statement released this morning, nfl commissioner roger goodell responded to the president's remarks calling divisive and disrespectful to the league and its players.

joining me now is peter king. glad to have you here to talk about this. it has been the hot button issue. online people are going nuts about this. it's incredible. roger goodell's response, give me your interpretation of it. was it good? was it bad? was it too forceful against the president, especially on this issue? >> alex, i think one of the things that roger goodell has almost always done when he's responded to public issues like this is he's erred on the side of conservativism and being mild. okay, we'll all get over this, let's all move on. this one i think he had no choice but to take a harder stand. this for roger goodell statement is fairly biting. i mean, this is a guy donald trump who tried to buy the buffalo bills in 2013 and '14 and failed to do so. so there's a big relationship between nfl owners and donald trump.

i mean, seven of the owners in the nfl donated at least $1 million to his presidential campaign. and so when he says some of the things he said, i think it hits both with the ownership and with commissioner roger goodell. >> what about the president disinviting steph curry and the winning team to come to the white house? >> i'm always so amazed, that the president of the united states, we're on the verge of nuclear war with north korea and he has time to worry about whether some guy from the golden state warriors is coming to the white house. it's insane. it's absolutely insane. i think the players in the nfl, when they look at the statements that are made, okay, about we want, you know -- we want football to be a hitting game. we love the big hits, or whatever he said during his speech. i mean, does he realize that one day ago a 27-year-old player who committed suicide, former

player, aaron hernandez, was found with stage three cte? as the result most likely of, you know, a career in youth high school college and pro football of head trauma. and now he wants to go back. i mean, the nfl is trying, at least trying to make this a less violent game. and for hem to say god, i'd long for the old days when guys hit the heck out of each other is ridiculous. >> what about lebron james? i mean, he put out there on twitter, he called the president a bum. do you think that is going too far? is it the kind of thing that, even regardless of what the president does, it's better if you try to show him some republican? or because it is this president, he's made this a free for all? >> i think this president has made it a free for all. i think it's -- you know, he is getting what he deserves. when he says some of the things he does, when he does the things he does, i'm not surprised by what anybody says about him. and i think this is probably the

most disappointing thing from the nfl player's point of view, many of whom i have spoken to about this issue, not today, but in the receipt past, and that is there's so many of these players who are trying to do good things. malcolm jenkins of the philadelphia eagles, he goes on ride-alongs with philadelphia police officers to try to better understand their job. he has appeared before congress to talk about criminal justice reform. players are interested. this is not, you know, a bunch of molotov cocktail throwers and they're not getting any republican from the white house. >> they're involved in their community and they give back and they can't all be lumped together like this. >> i think if there's one message that i would give, it's that this is not the nfl of t"te

longest yard" or whatever you've seen in hollywood or on television. these are guys who are really concerned, so many of them really concerned about their communities and do a lot in their communities and i just think that donald trump is treating it almost like a cartoon character type of exercise that, you know, it doesn't matter. we just want this. we don't want real life to intrude on our game. >> peter, thanks so much. appreciate that. debate continues over whether senate republicans latest attempt to repeal obamacare will get the support it needs. with key senators like john mccain formally opposing the plan and senate majority leader mcconnell in an increasingly difficult position. joining me now, new mexico congressman michelle and, ma'am, i'm glad to have you here and i want to ask you right out of the gate what do you think of the senator's decision, senator mcdonald's cain i'm talking about to not support the graham cassidy bill. >> thank you very figure me.

i'm going to join so many of my colleagues who have really pointed to mccain's incredible courage and conviction. it's clear that to me at least that mccain may not believe in many of the issues and principles identified and covered in the affordable care act. he also recognizes that we are affecting and potentially losing, pulling coverage away from millions of americans and also understands the budgetary impact in his own state. so he's putting the welfare of his constituents and the welfare of american citizens before the political rhetoric against the affordable care act. in this political climate, that takes a lot of courage and gumption and i certainly appreciate him for that and hope that we're going to see more of that kind of bipartisan focus on the issues effort in congress going forward. >> republican strategist rick tyler spoke with me early thiers

morning. he said some states would benefit. your state new mexico, how much does it stand to lose under the bill? >> because we don't have a score, and the cbpp, but it's billions. here's the point. as soon as the per capita or the block granting ends, you're going to lose -- you lose hundreds of millions of dollars every single year. then you start to lose billions of dollars over five years, ten years, and 2027 the range is anywhere from just over $3 billion. it is a devastation. if you look at what they're saying across the country, it's more than $400 billion in 2027. remember, these are the funds that have created that what we have today as a health care infrastructure. i would certainly debate and argue that it's been insufficient to lower cost, increased access, and to have a more meaningful american health care system, but without it,

there is no way like a poor state like mine, new mexico, has any way 50,000 -- i mean 50% of our population, 223,000 new mexicans, there's no way for the state to cover those losses and provide health care to its citizens. >> do you guys have a plan in the house if the bill gets to you? >> well, our plan is to do exactly the same. to make sure that americans let the republicans in the house know that this vehicle where they're pushing through legislation that literally rewards the states that didn't take up medicaid expansion and punishes the states, poor states, that used medicaid as a way to lower costs, increase access, low are the uninsured rates, shore up rural hospitals, that we're going to have to have every single american who understands what's at risk. that's before you really take this down to that very personal level. i lost a sister to cancer.

there's every family has issues about how difficult it is even now to make sure that you've got productive affordable access. and to minimize that and to take it away all together and to say to sick americans, we don't know what happens to you. you might die. there will be no protections for you. no consumer protections or access points for you. is really criminal. and at the same time, they're doing everything they can to erode the affordable care act so members like myself, i'm introducing a bill that would allow individuals to actually use their subsidies to buy into medicaid because they condition to erode the private insurance marketplace. >> listen, it is personal for you. i'm sorry about the loss of your sister. thanks so much for speaking with me. i appreciate your time. >> thank you very much. let's turn to puerto rico and the catastrophic of hurricane maria to supplied the basic needs of water and gasoline. tammy leitner is in puerto rico

where there are long lines to the gas station. >> reporter: we have seen enormous lines to gas stations at san juan, but this is the first time we've seen this. a fuel tanker actually delivering gas. this tanker had an escort by police and we're told is not so much a gas shortage but a matter of being able to get the gas to the different gas stations. come over here. i want to show you the line. some people have been in line since 3:00 a.m. waiting to get gas. they're only going to be allowed to get $20 worth of gas. that gives you an idea of what a shortage there is right now of just the basic essentials. >> all right. tammy leitner, thank you so much in san juan. just moments ago, mexican officials announced that the death told in tuesday's massive earthquake stands at 305 which includes at least 167 fatalities in mexico city alone. the news comes after another sizable quake, this 16.1 shook the state of oaxaca early this morning.

i know it's been a difficult morning there. you had that moment where all of the rescue workers behind you on the pile there, they stood with their fists up like quiet because they thought they heard somethi something. did anything come of that? >> reporter: they continued working franticly. then they raised their fists up one more time. it's the only two instances as of 5:00 a.m. this morning that we have seen that at this employment center. you see that behind me i was just talking to some of the folks on the ground, they've actually -- where that ladder is over my shoulder, that's where this employment center used to go up to. they're trying to left the debris in the area sort of to the right of that because that's where they believe there could possibly be some bodies, possibly be some signs of life. that is where we saw some of these rescue dogs sniffing over, so that is where most of the attention and the focus has been today. but also there was that very

tense moment today where we felt an after shock here in mexico city of that earthquake you described in oaxaca. i've been talking to people on the ground, talking to folks here in mexico who are living in buildings that were damaged by the earth wake last tuesday. and now when you feel one of these after shocks, obviously that just sends shock waives through this nation, because even the structure where you see over three dozen people working on right now, it's a very fragile structure. it makes every single step of these people take that more dangerous. and you mention the new death toll going up to 305. here in mexico city 167. most of the dead people have been here in mexico city, but yesterday the government is saying there's still roughly 200 missing. a lot of people unaccounted for. i've been speaking to family members who have been camped out here for three days. still waiting to hear on news from their family members. that is a delicate situation here in mexico.

as we're hitting the 96 hours since this earthquake happened this past tuesday. >> hard to fathom. thank you so much. coming up next, revealing more than why she lost the presidency, talking with joy reed. what mrs. clinton revealed had she become commander in chief that has two political strategists surprised. flonase outperforms the #1 non-drowsy allergy pill. when we breathe in allergens, our bodies react by overproducing 6 key inflammatory substances that cause our symptoms. flonase helps block 6. most allergy pills only block one and 6 is greater than 1. with more complete relief you can enjoy every beautiful moment to the fullest. flonase. 6 is greater than 1 changes everything. but on the inside, i feel chronic, widespread pain.like most people. fibromyalgia may be invisible to others, but my pain is real.

fibromyalgia is thought to be caused by overactive nerves. lyrica is believed to calm these nerves. i'm glad my doctor prescribed lyrica. for some, lyrica delivers effective relief for moderate to even severe fibromyalgia pain. and improves function. lyrica may cause serious allergic reactions, suicidal thoughts or actions. tell your doctor right away if you have these, new or worse depression, unusual changes in mood or behavior, swelling, trouble breathing, rash, hives, blisters, muscle pain with fever, tired feeling, or blurry vision. common side effects: dizziness, sleepiness, weight gain, swelling of hands, legs and feet. don't drink alcohol while taking lyrica. don't drive or use machinery until you know how lyrica affects you. those who've had a drug or alcohol problem may be more likely to misuse lyrica. with less pain, i can do more with my family. talk to your doctor today. see if lyrica can help.

i think this last gasp threat that the republicans are posing is incredibly serious. i don't think anybody should be spending time on anything else right now until we defeat it again. >> that of course hillary clinton in a new interview with my colleague joy reed warning about republicans latest effort

to repeal and replace the affordable care act. let's bring in lauren, co-founder and ceo of all in together and former new york congressman nan hayworth. is the graham cassidy bill some sort of a loss gasp. do you think the republicans have exhausted their last play in the book? >> i don't but i do have great concerns about this particular bill passing at this particular time. not that it lacks virtues. it has many. but you don't think it's going to have enough market empowering provisions to bring around the one extra votes we need which would, say, a rand paul and unfortunately i think it's going to be awfully tough to pass this bill within the strapconstraint reconciliation next week. >> do you think it's as dire -- after all, without john mccain's vote. it looks like this bill is not going to pass.

>> the pressure on the republicans to come together as a party and demonstrate they're able to govern and pass major legislation under pressure from the president and from their congress is enormous. the pressure on every single saerpt to pass this bill is going to be enormous. the point is because there have been so many successive bills, it's been very difficult for americans to keep track of what are in these bills, whether or not they should support it or not. the citizen engagement on this one may not be quite as high as it's been in the others. i think we've seen over the last summer of months that on a whole range of successive issues that that sort of outpouring of civic participation, calling, writing, people showing up at town halls to voice their opinions and personal feelings about these issues has absolutely had a huge influence on the governing process. >> to your point, we've gotten lots of reaction. there's new polling out kp and shows that the majority of

americans oppose the repeal and replace. my question is since most people do not seem to want to have the aca repealed and replaced, why does this continue to be a st sticking point for the republicans? >> it's not only a sticking point for republicans. it does transcend politics and the fundamental fact is that a growing number of counties across the country only have one insurer. deductibles, premiums have skyrocketed. networks of providers have narrowed. jimmy kimmel as we know spoke for movingly about their experience with his son and his life saving surgery and in fact, unfortunately, there are places in the country where little babies don't have the kind of access to all the facilities that offer that kind of care. we want none of them to be deprived. but precisely because of the terms and the constraints that are become ever more narrow and

difficult through the affordable care act. >> but how can -- >> and people haven't necessarily fully realized that in all its respects, but it is becoming ever more -- >> i actually think that when it comes to the affordable care act, the americans are actually better informed on this topic than almost any other political issue over time, better than tax reform, better than the dream act, because it is intensely personal for every single american and every single american can relate to the issues on some level that makes it an issue that they pay more closely attention to than anything else. there's no question there are problems in the current aca. but first of all, i think republicans have not done a good job and i don't -- they've done a terrible job of trying to sell these bills. there's a lot of misinformation out there. as somehow in favor of letting sick children die. it's so bad for the party. they've bungled every dimension of this. they've opportunity and they

continue to have the opportunity to fik tx the problem, but the focus on repeal is really to apease some of the donors in the republican party maybe more than the vast majority of the american public. it's not going well for them and it's a continued pr disaster for the party. >> there are a lot of important topics to talk about, but the president has brought one thing up to the forefront based on his tweets this morning and that being the issue of sports stars, steph curry, colin kaepernick specifically and just moments ago as you were sitting down here's what he tweeted. if the player wants the privilege of making millions of dollars in the nfl or other leagu leagues he or she should not be allowed to disrespect our great american country or the national anthem. if not, you're fired, find something else to do. look, these may not be the kinds of comments that we expect from our president. at least all the presidents before this president. but doesn't he have a right to

express his mind and free speech here? >> right. of course. if we want to talk about what the flag stands for and what it represents and why someone chooses to respect our not respect the flag, it is because of the very rights that are enshrined in the first amendment and the united states constitution. to berate any american citizen for exercising their rights to express themselves is really unfortunate. keep in mind there are also certain religious groups in this country that, you know, don't allow you to salute the flag. there are children in public school whose don't do that because it defies their religious beliefs and in our nation that is also enshrined the right of every individual to decide for themselves. so i think it's unfortunate. i mean, so much has been said about this today i think fundamentally the president really clearly has difficulty respecting dissenting opinions in this country and it's extremely unfortunate. i'll say also part of the response is if you watch fox news you can understand a little bit about why he's been harping on this.

this has been a constant trip on fox. day after day after day they've been having very critical coverage of this and we know the president watches it. he seems to pair everything that happens on that network. i think this is another example. >> you're laughing. i'll give you a couple seconds. >> with all due respect i agree completely the right of free speech is one of the most important rights that we have as americans. people have fought and died for that. i think there's tremendous sympathy for those who disapprove strongly of disrespecting the flag in public events, especially by people who have abundantly enjoyed the blessings of the united states. it's obviously within the purview of owners of nfl team whose employ these players to determine how they express themselves when they're on the job. but i'd like to see -- i wouldn't object to any owner who said hey, if you don't stand up and respect the flag, you're not going to be playing for our team. >> who the players are and i

think the nfl understood today who their constituents are and they're a lot of americans who sympathize very deeply with colin kaepernick and other players. >> did i mention this has sparked a lot of passion and reaction? i think i did. just a little bit. coming up next, tackling the issue of the pro athletes taking a knee during the national anthem. we'll continue that conversation and look at why the president is going public with his opinion. shawn evans: it's 6 am. 40 million americans are waking up to a gillette shave.

and at our factory in boston, 1,200 workers are starting their day building on over a hundred years of heritage, craftsmanship and innovation. today we're bringing you america's number one shave at lower prices every day. putting money back in the pockets of millions of americans. as one of those workers, i'm proud to bring you gillette quality for less, because nobody can beat the men and women of gillette. gillette - the best a man can get. can we at least analyze can we push the offer online? legacy technology can handcuff any company. but "yes" is here. the new app will go live monday? yeah. with hewlett-packard enterprise, we're transforming the way we work. with the right mix of hybrid it, everything computes. he's on his way to work in alaska. this is john. he's on his way to work in new mexico. willie and john both work for us, a business that employs over 90,000 people in the u.s. alone. we are the coca-cola company,

and we make much more than our name suggests. we're an organic tea company. a premium juice company. we've got drinks for long days. for birthdays. for turning over new leaves. and all of our products rely on the same thing we all do... clean water. which is why we have john leading our efforts to replenish every drop of water we use. we believe our business thrives when our communities thrive. which is just one of the reasons we help make college a reality for thousands of students. today, companies need to do more. so john and willie are trying to do just that. thank you for listening. we're listening too. can make anyone slow downt and pull up a seat to the table. that's why she takes the time to season her turkey to perfection, and make stuffing from scratch. so that you can spend time on what really matters. marie callender's. it's time to savor.

here's a look at some of the stories we're watching at 32 past the hour. betsy devos has officially rescinded obama error title ix protections. it allows the university to modify the standard of evidence in campus sexual assault cases. worry it should unfairly shield those accused of sexual misconduct. it's not just north korea test firing ballistic missiles. iran doing the same thing.

that news agency released this video saying the military tested a long range missile. american officials have yet to confirm that report but it is within its rights to conduct missile tests without violating the nuclear deal. let's get to the president going to war with the nfl. joining me now allen smith and katherine. i want to start with the sound from the president last night. why was it important for him to bring this up as he was talking there in alabama on a political stunt speech for a candidate? katherine, you hear me? >> i'm sorry, you were about to play the sound. i apologize. >> i actually should have. >> that's fine. so why was it important? i mean, this is a part of his entire race message. it's about turning the rallies, the adoring fans of his against an outside enemy, in this case

people of color. and i think that it's particularly exas per rating that trump is choosing to single out these athletes. i go back to what trevor noah has said repeatedly about that. what is the correct way for a person of color to register peaceful political dissent, which is what we're talking about here? because what trump is portraying this as, there's no possible way to register your disappointment with the fact that this country has not kept up with the ideas thatit stands for, that the flag and not being sufficiently represented in how we live our lives and how the political process works and in how our criminal justice system works. trump is calling out these actions not because they are these forms of political dissent. not because they are so e gre

egregious. this is exactly what our country is based on to register peace full political dissent, but there is no way to if you're a person ever color in this country. >> roger goodell released this statement in response to the president. divisive comments demonstrate a lack of respect for the nfl our great game and the players. the failure to understand the overwhelming force for good our clubs and players represent in our communities. i'm curious about your reaction to his reaction and whether or not he should have responded. >> well, for someone who has followed roger goodell this is a somewhat unprecedented comment from him. i know peter king is on earlier. it's true he tend to stick to a much more conservative tone in his responses, not trying to inflame any situations. the nfl more than other sports, its ownership is much more slows lie tied to president trump. there are a number of owners who are part of his biggest donors. woody johnson, bob kraft.

trump was reading letters from tom brady and bill belichick. even more so the nba, the nfl is a sport where a lot of players are supportive of president trump and the fact that so many owners are donating to trump, the fact that goodell would feel the ability to release such a comment really does say something about what trump said last night. >> you also said the president disinviting nba star steph curry to the white house after the warriors guard said he'd be voting no for a traditional championship visit by the team. curry says their absence will form a protest against the president along the lines of the ways to express what you were talking about. why pick on the athletes? is there some element of distraction, maybe deflect from all this talk about health care which is not going to well for the republicans? >> i go back and forth on this. is this some genius scheme to distract us from the issues or him lashing out because his ego is bruised?

it's probably a little of column and column b. he doesn't want us thinking about his policy failures but he's also deeply wounded by the fact that he's being rejected by these athletes so is trying to reject them first. oh, you can't dump me because i dumped you. that's what this is about. this whole idea of bringing athletes to the white house is supposed to be about honoring the athletes. but in trump's mind, no. this is about honoring the president. he wants to meet with people who are actually good at their jobs. and have that reflect well upon him and they're not having it. >> and your thought on all this, allen? >> well, the nba is a league where athletes have been very outspoken. y it's going to be interesting move forward what further forms protest we'll see from nba athletes. we've got nfl sunday tomorrow. it's going to be very interesting to see how players respond. >> good point. >> are we going to see more

players taking, you know, more protesting stances? i would be surprised if we did not see that on sunday. >> i'm curious to hear what the commentators all say as well. an interesting conversation. thank you both. up next a war of words between president trump and north korea kim jong-un. where will this lead us next? and the new activity detected inside that country that has scientists asking questions today. t countries that we traveled, what is your nationality and i would always answer hispanic. so when i got my ancestry dna results it was a shocker. i'm everything. i'm from all nations. i would look at forms now and wonder what do i mark? because i'm everything. and i marked other. discover the story only your dna can tell. order your kit now at ancestrydna.com.

and now come celebrate our grand opening in your neighbourhood. global pressure on north korea continues to grow. we're about to give you a live feed of north korea's foreign minister talking at the united nations general asem blesembly. this happening as a group of military planes flew in international air force earlier today. it is the fatterthest northwesty has flown in this century. all this comes after the nourth

korean government traded threats. joining me is jenny. jenny with a big thank you for joining me. what does it mean that u.s. military jets are flying today further nrorth of the dmz more than at any point in the last 17 years? >> it's a very dangerous situation we are in. the more we do these shows of force the more it actually provokes north korea to do more provocative acts rather than deter it. we've got into a very dangerous escalation that i'm not sure how we back away from. >> are you saying the president is doing the miscalculation? >> i tlnghink there's been a lof miscalculation on all sides but it's been fueled by the president's war of words with kim jong-un. in the past the presidents have not played this game with north korea.

because it's a game that yonobo wins. the more he goads north korea on and he talks about kim jong-un in a very belittling way as he did, this forces kim jong-un to respond and it forces him to respond in very provocative very strong ways. >> and he's responding in part as well if not directly to the president in his tweets and his speech but also to the fact that there are economic sanctions being imposed like never before on north korea. to that end, we saw china announce friday it will reduce its oil exports to north korea. what does that do to north korea's missile program? >> it certainly raises the cost of the program and it certainly will make it more difficult for north korea to continue with some of the development. but some of these things it actually affects the average everyday person more than it does the regime and more than it does the missile development and more than did t does the nuclear development. so the problem with economic sanctions is that it does take a

long time for these measures to have any impact. in the meantime, a lot of the program has been funded, you know, through illegal means to begin with. so the largest impact is going to be on the people, not the regime for, you know, the near future. and certainly time at this point is not on our side. >> how do you expect china to play things out in the past? china has been accused as you are well aware of having sort of subversive measures and still managing to, through various banks, funnel money to north korea in part because they want north korea to stay economically viable. they do not want the economy to collapse in that country because that could -- of many things, cause a rush with refugees flooding over the border into china. how much do you think the u.s. without the global community can rely on china going forward? >> i think china has shown that it will do more and it is willing to do more and i think it has been trying to figure out

what more it can do without collapsing north korea. the bigger problem is that as it's doing more, it also wants the united states to do more, too, and part of that is getting back to negotiations. >> but do you see that as being possible, jenny? do you see kim jong-un or literally anybody who works within the government with him given the fact that he's reacted lethally to those who have dissenting opinions, do you really see diplomacy as being a viable option anytime in the more future? >> i think it's certainly much hard harder now given hutow much has gone back and forth between kim jong-un and president trump. the level of trust on both sides and the credibility is both sides is very low. a lot in the u.s. believe that you can't negotiate with north korea, that they never live up to their agreement, you know, their agreements, but that's not necessarily true. it's an over simplification of

the diplomatic history. there have been times in the past where diplomacy has been effective. north korea has lived up to, you know, its part of the bargain and the u.s. has also had problems retreating in the past in past agreements. >> jenny -- >> the problem with those agreements have been canceled early and weren't allowed to really fill out complete in that process. >> all right, jenny, i'm sorry, we're going to have to cut you off. i'm out of time. thank you for your time. for all of you, the new fall tv season is upon us. one giving us a firsthand look z how shows are changing as the audience becomes more fragmented.

it's been said this is a new golden age for television and now the organizers behind the try beck ka film festival have

decided to turn their attention to the stories on the small screen. i recently sat down with one of those organizers to learn a little bit more about it. the first ever festival is under way in new york city with a star studded line up of skreengs and world premiers, but it's not just featuring tv shows. also the streaming video services from amazon, netflix, youtube, as well as a few big budget virtual reality productions. joining me now is try beck ka jane rosen that will. with with a big welcome to you. this is so exciting. and the timing of all this, why now for a tv festival? >> think about the way our business has changed and any about the way our audiences watch shows, watch content. everybody wants it when they want it. and amazing creators are now working on every different platform. so the try beck ka film festival has always screened television going back to 2004 and the last episode of friends. we've had our television segment of the film festival for the past several years, and it just

felt like the opportunity to show an audience where some of those really good shows are. >> we're looking forward to things i know. the reboot of "will & grace" on nbc. virtual reality things. how do you decide what to put into this festival? >> you have three days jam-packed. it's something for fans, something for people who just want to see what is new and interesting that's out there, that they can't find and they have the cure to heral voice. so you say how do we find it? we have the most amazing programmerers who watch absolutely everything and there's a reason that they've picked oprah win friday's release or keira sed wick's new show. it also gives the cast and creators an opportunity to talk to the audience and genuine feedback. >> you've got oprah kicking

everything off on friday. so that was something else. with regard to the timing of this, is there any slightly weird about cure 80ing a tv festival when all the buzz is, all the literature is that, oh, well, tv audiences are smaller. how are you judging that? >> tv audiences aren't smaller. they're more fragmented. and people watch them at different times. so a show like, you know, fx americans, that will get a repeat audience. >> yeah. >> so it's not the day of. you look at shows -- it's not appointment tv anymore. so it's actually an opportunity for people to see great stories. >> can you just talk a little bit about this story you're working on as a producer. this sounds like an amazing thing. it's for netflix and you've got all the good old boys back together again. >> this is a project i've been working on trying to get made for ten years and it's called the irish men. it's based on the book and skoor

sees yeah, den knee row, joe peshy to name a few are back together again. and we tried to do this for one of the studios for a number of years and we're now doing it for netflix. we started on monday. so, again, the worlds are all changing. creators are going where people will tell the stories that they wanted to create. >> well, we are so excited about it. can't wait to hear all the buzz. jane rosen that will, good luck. thank you so much and stay awake. i think you need a lot of coffee. >> yeah. they only put water in here. >> coffee next time, i promise. >> thank you. >> that woman had her track shoes on for this one. that's a wrap for me this hour. i'm alex witt. i'll look forward to seeing you again at 9 eastern tomorrow morning. meanwhile the excitement is in the area right there at new york central park. the global citizen festival is about to start.
