good morning to all of you. it is sunday may 31st. i'm alex witt. police responding to protest and civil unrest responding with tear gas and rubber bullets. tensions high in cities where police pushed back protesters in efforts to curb looting and property damage, but the fires raged on from new york city's union square where nypd vehicles reported torched. to the west coast in los angeles where lapd cars were set on fire. fires burned on the streets of washington, d.c. not too far from the white house as well as this strip mall in fayetteville, north carolina, and this was the scene on the streets of grand

rapids, michigan. fires, vandals smashing in windows in spite of a very heavy police presence. fires burned at big stores in tampa, florida, as looters also took to the streets last night. out in large numbers at this mall in scottsdale, arizona. in san francisco, where a best buy store became a target. all this in spite of an increased police presence in places like detroit and check out this police mobilization in portland, oregon. the increased police presence was evident on the streets of chicago as it was in little rock, arkansas, where flash grenades were used to scatter crowds and protesters there. in salt lake city, utah, police crackdowns led to several arrests and look at this new video from kansas city, missouri, you see a protester battling with police officers as they used pepper spray to break up demonstrations that went on late into this night. a country in trauma certainly as we turn now to minneapolis where

the protests began last week after four nights of demonstrations. police forces stronger around the twin cities, trying to enforce the curfew in place there. live to minneapolis and joined by nbc's steege patterson once again. seen a heck of a lot in the last 48, 72 hours. ramped up police presence helped control the violence to some degree last night. what did you see? >> reporter: we've seen a heck of a lot and i think the thing we first noticed last night is just how much police forces were out in force. there was a much more established presence on the ground, a much more focus on putting boots on the ground, making that visible, but not only that, making the messaging visible before there even was a presence on the street. i had my news alerts set to the governor, set to the emergency manager. there were tweets like every five minutes telling people about the curfew, telling pea if you're out on the street patrolling walking around you'll be in the way of what's been

established by bringing in the national guard, and what's happening on this street to try to destroy property. that is not to say, however, you know, despite the fact that things were much more quieter last night, that we did not see conflicts and clashes. there were certainly fl fifth pa place in which police and protesters clashed. the bridge coming in to the city. they had to push protesters back off the bridge. so there definitely were flashpoints, there were things on fire last night just as that have been nearly every night. exchanges of volleys of tear gas hurled at protesters. protesters throwing things back at police. of course, all that happened, but by and large with the presence on the ground, a much quieter night. particularly when talking about what happened and the chaos on friday night, and a lot of that is borne out in what you see behind me. just the militarization, the fortification here, the barricades in front. the concrete barrier in back.

a lot of this is just established imagery i think police wanted to show that they had a pressen on the ground. not only that, you're talking about 700 national guardmen that were activated on friday compared with 4,100 out in force last night. combine that with state police. combine that with local police or more enforcement. a much more visible presentation to the people that were out on the street. despite that, local officials, state officials, emergency management officials, law enforcement officials, all saying, we are not out of the woods yet. they plan to keep this established for at least the next few days, or at least until they can determine that they have kind of quelled things here in city, and i don't think they'll be able to establish that anytime soon. here what they are saying about increased presence and keeping it in place. listen to this. >> the governor's commitment to this was, we're in this until this is addressed, and we do not

feel that -- that we are out of this yet. do o'thii think this is a long- pro zigs in the terms of the need for this level of personnel? no. but ultimately the goal is to restore the situation to the point where regular normal police operations can meet the public safety needs of the cities. >> reporter: something we should talk and and something that will be addressed if not today in the next few days is with increased establishment and maybe militarization, you could call it, of the police showing more force. that did lead to more reports of clashes or interference with what the media was trying to do last night, with people reporting that, you know, i saw video of a guy being tear gassed with a reporting affiliate on the ground. there was a photographer that was reportedly arrested in between clashes.

our other morgan chesky got caught in a crew and his team tear gassed. ali velshi, you're you've seen the video, tear gassed between what was happening on the street. show you that video what they were facing. take a look at this. >> get back. get back. he's hit. he's hit. step back. i got it. whoa. watch it, guys. we got gas here. all right. back up, back up, back up. the gentleman next to us got hit. >> you see the video there. i think there will be question how police across the country are handling, how the media is trying to do their job. talking about across the country, though. obviously much quieter here in minneapolis but if you take a blood look, i mean the national guard was activated in 12 cities and the district of columbia. there were clashes and protests and violence in los angeles where it trickled out even into

things like rodeo drive and melrose. we saw widespread looting across the city there. chicago, miami, new york, where there were protests active in just about every borough. police fighting with protesters on the streets there. police vehicles on fire in many of these cities, and just, widespread tension across the country which doesn't seem to be letting up at least anytime soon, but back here in minneapolis, again, the activation, they call it successful of the national guard. the show of force they call successful in a night that was much more quieter. there is no sign they're going to slow down on what they call something that worked last night. until at least they can figure out and find out that things have quieted down, but i don't think that's going to be for quite a while. >> yes. it is just incredible, steve. reaction across this country. the many, many hot spots. let me ask you quickly. silver lining to all this.

you and i were on the air you saw local residents going to clean up places damaged overnight on friday. do you expect we'll see that again today? there seem to be quite a bonding over that. >> reporter: i'm so glad you brought that up. that is the one thing that stuck with me after all of the stuff we saw on the ground there. just those people that were able to come out of their homes, come out of their communities, local people. people from across the city. yes, i do expect to see them out again today. there is no reason why they shouldn't be, if they feel like this is their community and they definitely told me that's something that's important to them. back to you. >> stephen patterson, you see that out there bring it to us in our noon broadcast. love to see that. demonstrations reaching the president's doorsteps overnight. the protesters gathered for the second day and night in a row. how about this morning? what's is look like there? >> reporter: all quiet and calm here at the white house this morning, alex, but there are remnants of the clashes overnight. you could see debris, signs of

vandalism, graffiti and even fires contained a couple of blocks from the white house overnight. and these clashes did become more violent as night fell. earlier in the day, we saw about 1,000 protesters gather on pennsylvania avenue and 17th street, and it was mostly with secret service was out in full force in case anything broke out it did remain for the most part more calm compared to what you saw in the late evening hours, even prompting the national guard to be activated here in the district, which is significant. and the president commented on the friday night clashes. he hasn't weighed in on yet evening, but something the secret service decided to do was they created a larger perimeter encapsulated all of lafayette park last night so the demonstrators couldn't get as close to the white house as they did the night before. the president was in florida for much of yesterday poor that spacex launch where he delivered his most extensive remarks on

the death of joye george floyd and while he acknowledged the collective pain of the nation he also had a message for the more extreme demonstrators. take a listen. >> the memory of george floyd is being dishonored by rioters, looters and anarchists to violence and vandalism that is being led by antifa and other radical left wing groups who are terrorizing the innocent, destroying jobs -- hurting businesses and burning down buildings. the main victims of this horrible, horrible situation are the citizens who live in these once lovely communities. >> reporter: this is a message echoed by attorney general bill barr. seems to be a big focus of the administration as these protests continue. now, the president doesn't have

anything on this schedule for today. last weekend, which was a holiday weekend, we saw the president go out to the golf course a couple of times. that's something on any other spring weekend he may do. there's no indication whether that's how he'll spend his time yet today, alex, or whether he may continue to address these protests we saw overnight in so many different cities. >> viewpoint, the secret service including the park, it left the beautiful hotel outside of that, were they damaged? >> reporter: exactly right. you saw a fire break out next to the adams, steps from the park. you can really see it here from the north lawn. that fire was contained by law enforcement but also you saw vehicles that were set ablaze and you saw some glass that was

shatterened and other buildings damaged. yes. really just a couple hundred meters from here you can see the effects and walking in this morning, i could see that all around on 17th street, up on to eighth street and you saw it even on the side of the treasury over in a different direction. so by pushing that perimeter out, it did incur more damage in surrounding areas of the white house campus, alex. >> okay. monica alba, thank you for that. bring in cornell william brooks, former president and ceo of in a krnaacp. awfully good to see you, my friend. listening to that sound bite monica played of the president creating the crowd from cape canaveral, florida, but also the state by attorney general barr, agitators crossing federal lines, break federal and state lines, what's your reaction to that? >> my reaction is, first of all, concern and expression of

condolences for the floyd family, and all of the grieving families across the country who are dealing with the brutality of police misconduct. the president's response and the attorney general's response essentially represent an overreliance and overprescription of militarization to a long-standing police problem. in other words, an emergency military response as opposed to addressing the underlying issue is necessary, but insufficient. the point being here is, it's important to protect property, most importantly people from arson, from looting, from violent unrest, but it is more important to address the underlying issues, and to the extent we are relying on the national guard as opposed to community engagement meaning these two things have to go together is, as i said before,

necessary but not nearly sufficient. >> so cornell, do you think it is too easy to get caught up in all the trauma of these protests? they've grabbed the headlines, certainly. they caused a lot of people to lose sight for the actual reason for this, the death of george floyd at the hands of the police? >> i wouldn't say it's a matter of getting caught up in the protests. it's a matter of long-standing anger. what i mean by this is, where we have 900 to 1,000 people who lose their lives at the hands of the police in any given year. where we have a black man having a 1 out of 1,000 chance being killed by the police. in other words, police homicide is leading cause of death. where we see serial pornographically violent videos, one after the other after the other after the other, hash tag, one after the other, we have a nation triggered and

traumatizeed by all of this. so the point being here is, yes. people are angry. yes, people are frustrated, and so it is -- it is not -- it's not surprising that some people will lapse into violence, that some people will take advantage of the opportunity to loot and to engage in this conduct, but, again, alex it is critically important here for us to address the underlying issue which has been ignored far too long. if this country could respond to the markets crashing at the beginning of this pandemic in a matter of days, with billions of dollars and federal policy, how is it we can't address a problem that has been, the nation has been grappling with and suffering from for generations? the point being is, the country needs to respond seriously and with a sense of urgency with the policy prescriptions we know work. >> for sure. yes. what about governors? mayors around this country,

cornell, they assert that, yes, there are the peaceful protesters that carry signs and chant and they're doing those soorts sorts of demonstrations but in addition extremists hijacking this movement, appears to build towards meaningful change here? anything to address those individuals? >> oh, absolutely. i spent time in minneapolis and st. paul only a few years ago in the wake of the deaths of castillo and clark. we saw people coming from outside of minnesota where in the minnesota winter diseasing, cloaking themselves em gaungage this conduct. on the street corner where i sto stood, two white nationalists shot people who were there.

provocateurs looking to engage in mayhem, violence, anarchy and disruption, but we cannot allow the misconduct of a few to imperil the rights of the many. that is to say the peaceful protesters. to those who are looking to burn down communities that they don't live in and peril the lives of people they don't represent and don't stand with, they should be prosecuted to the fullest extent of the law. but for the majority of people who are engaged in peaceful protests, they should be allowed to do that which the constitution guarantees them to do and what their conscious compels them to do. >> cornell, the point you made about the speed with which the government reacted to the pandemic by shoring up economically as best they could, pouring billions of dollars into it, trillions, frankly. >> sure. >> do you think -- i mean -- what is the difference here? the fact that they're able to do that from an economic stand it point. does it say to you that they

care more about the economy than about the consistency of racial injustice in this country and the inequity of that? >> oh, most definitely. so where we have literally 900 to 1,000 people losing their lives at the hands of the police, i.e., killed every year, we tolerate this as a nation, but as soon as the markets are imperilled, we respond with speed. what i mean by that is in 2017 the business community lobbied congress for a $1.3 trillion in taxes over ten years. we have not seen the business community lobby congress for legislation to address racial profiling. we have seen legislation in the federal congress. we have cities, police departments across the country where there is no responsibility of police officers to report police misconduct or to engage,

interrupt and to prevent it. the point being here is, what we have to have is a sense of urgency to do the things that we know work. for example, the new orleans police department. they were a poster child for misconduct. turned around when they newly empowered officers to report bad conduct, to report police brutality. in other words, creating an, a culture of ethics. these are things that can be done, should be done, but we have to move with a sense of urgency. be clear about this. we have a generation of activists and demonstrators across the country who are not willing to wait. the people have waited long enough. how many more hash tags do we need in order for the country to appreciate that people have humanity, they have dignity. they deserve to walk the streets, to live in the streets, live safely in their homes while being black or brown or trans,

or disabled. we have a right to live safely, and this country can respond to the problem with policy, with a cultural shift, with a value shift if we will to do it, and we don't have time. >> thank you so much. good to see you, my friend. take care g. . >> good to see you. as thousands protest the death of george floyd, there's another concern. the coronavirus. doctors working to get this under control. differently. the gillette skinguard it has a guard between the blades that helps protect skin. the gillette skinguard. i but what i do count on...ts anis boost high protein...rs, and now, there's boost mobility... ...with key nutrients to help support... joints, muscles, and bones. try boost mobility, with added collagen.

pandemic. latest at this hour. starting tomorrow, miami-dade county beaches, pools and the hotels will reopen. sunbathing and swimming permitted but strict social distancing rules are in place. all beachgoers must have face covering and no groups of more than ten people allowed. on the west coast, los angeles county reported the largest one-day total of new

coronavirus cases since the pandemic began with 2,112 new infections. officials say the large number is due in part to a backlog of test results and a new lab beginning to report results. this comes as restaurants, barber shops and hair salons in l.a. county were given the green light to open with regulations. president trump postponed the group of seven world summit of leaders until at least september. this after german chancellor angela merkel said she could skip a meeting amid the pandemic. a message for demonstrators, if you are protesting you probably need to get a coronavirus test. the mayor saying there's still a pandemic in america killing black and brown people at higher numbers. and joining me now to discuss this, an immunology expert and attendant at a hospital. we are seeing from the video large groups of people gathering

at these protests around the country. does that concern you at all? are you worried about new hot spots in the areas of these protests over the next few weeks? >> a lot of these protests violate all of our core tenanting of social distancing. people in large crowds. close physical contact for long periods of time. most, not all, wearing masks. remember, the masks do not completely block transmission of respiratory droplets and people screaming and speaking loudly. to some extent this is the perfect storm thousand this spreads. people want to protest dos, do responsibly with masks, and protest peacefully. >> the fact this is outdoors help at all with your concerns? >> it doesn't really change the fact that people are very, very close together and nos pra practicing distancing. the loud projection of the voice

and prolonged periods of time is how the droplets spread. doesn't matter whether you're indoors or outdoors. >> the coronavirusback began to president in the u.s. in january, said the cdc. cryptic spread by january. your reaction? >> doesn't surprise me. no cases in december and january, because we were looking for it. then, remember, back in, january, february, our requirements for testing were very strict. they have evolved. we used to only test people if they had fever and a cough. recent travel. we've realized there's a whole lists of symptoms on the cdc website. the virus evolved, our recognition of the virus evolved. we didn't see positive tests because we weren't looking for them. i have no doubt that there were cases earlier in the winter. >> all right. doctor, thank you so much for weighing in. appreciate that. a tipping point. the path to change in this country after days of protest. congressman emanuel cleaver joins me to weigh in. you wouldn't accept an incomplete job from anyone else.

another long and dangerous night for our correspondents, for police and protesters, demonstrators in several cities facing tear gas and rubber bullets as protested heated up in the late-night hour. police crowd control units like this one in los angeles disbursing the groups that lingered after curfew. some protesters took on officers one on one. look at this scene playing out in kansas city, missouri, there. a few hours earlier in grand rapids, michigan, protesters tried to resist, but were shoved out of the way by police officers. and then take a look what happened in houston. [ whistle blowing ] >> hey, hey! >> an officer on horseback tramplings protesters. testimony to the ricks people take to demonstrate as we take a look at the sunday paper headlines. big one on the front page of the "minneapolis tribune," the guard moves in helping quell the

unrest and state leaders pleading for peace and an end to the protests of the death of george floyd. now we go to the "new york daily news." waves of outrage. george floyd's famous words, "i can't breathe" same by eric garner while he was held on staten island, later dieing and a rally from many of those protests their deaths. and anger, heartbreak. claiming their peaceful protests against police brutality of hijacked by outsiders creating chaos and also uttered by some leaders across the country. joining me now, missouri democratic congressman emanuel clee cleaver. glad to have you here. play first an interview with my colleague reverend sharpton. let's take a listen. >> it was so fast, he didn't give me the opportunity to even speak. it was hard. i was trying to talk to imhad

but he just kept, like, pushing me out, like -- i don't want to hear what you're talking about. and i just told him. i want justice. i said that i couldn't believe that they committed a modern day lynching in broad daylight. that's -- i can't stand for that. i can't. and it hurt me. you know? and it just -- i just don't understand, man. why we got to go through this? why we got to have all this pan, man jie love man? i loved my brother. it i'm never going to see him again. >> matter wrenching. what's your reaction? >> well, i think that -- i want people to understand that when these things happen, you know, there is a great deal of pain, you know -- and i'm not so sure that that there are people who really understand what, what's happening on the inside of

individuals who have either become a victim in something like this or whose family member is now trying to recover from something like this, but it is, it is a stomach turning experience to watch what happened to mr. floyd. i've watched it twice. i cannot watch it anymore. to watch the life actually being oozed out of a person at the hands of the people who were sworn to protect him. >> what wabout what he was sayig about the speed of the call that happened from the president and the fact he wasn't able to get a word in edgewise. seemed that the president's call felt, at least to him, like something of an be obligation as opposed to something of an impane empathic response? >> what probably happened some of the staffers told the

president you need to make that phone call and maybe already knew vice president biden had kun so. so the president displayed over and over and over again that he just does not have that compassion gene. it's missing. it's not his fault. i don't know whose fault it is, but he just doesn't have it, and that would have been a, could have been a major moment in his presidency. not only talking to the floyd family, but speaking to the nation and that's the most pain. it part of this for me. the most painful part is the fact that the leader of our nation does not have the ability to speak to us. almost every president, whether i agreed with their political theology or not, i got to tell you, ronald reagan, george bush, both bushes, clinton, of course, jimmy carter, president obama. all have been most profound in moments like this. and they spoke to the entire

nation. i think the president unfortunately, and painfully for me, is speaking to a, what i hope to be a small segment of the american public, but let me just also say that, i want americans to understand that -- when anarchist infiltrates a demonstration there is a very real likelihood that it will bring on the nature of the beast, and i think that has happened. i was in ferguson when that happened in ferguson, missouri, down the road, and we found out in a meeting with attorney general eric holder, my colleague, lacy clay, claire mccaskill and others in the federal courthouse in a meeting that the justice department knew that there were people out in the crowd stirring things up who

had come to ferguson from cities far away including as far away as california. so when i hear people say that demonstrators are becoming violent, i'm grog to disagree. i'd say 99% of the people who came out to actually demonstrate as is their constitutional right were not out throwing firebombs, and, you know, we've got anarchists who have infiltrated us. you know, every american ought to just wonder, what is the rest of the world saying about us? you know -- here is -- the world's flagship democracy giving off the appearance of collapsing. >> hmm. >> and -- we've got to stop it. >> it's -- it's a very good point you make. and we have a friend who lives in tokyo sent me a message last

night saying that everybody here feels sorry for the united states of america. pretty sobering words from that friend of mine. missouri democratic congressman emanuel cleaver, thank you for that. msnbc's ali velshi will be live on the air coming up next at 8:00 talking to brittany packet cunningham. meantime, new polls out about where vice president joe biden stands and what's driving the numbers, next. into a smaller life?

you're welcome. a new poll has former vice

president joe biden in the lead. 53% of registered voters prefer biden and 43% choose president trump. there are potential challenges in voter commitment and enthusiasm. joining me from "vanity fair," abiga abigail, biden's best among registered voters since last fall. in fact, up a couple points. what's your take on this? >> yes. right now what we have is a country in crisis, and a president who's not stepping up to the moment. it's very obvious he is failing to address the fact our country is literally burninght now, and i think a lot of voters want to see change. that's what's shown in this poll and it's going to continue and it's going to continue to be exacerbated as we move forward and this crisis continues. >> i want to dig deeper into the

number. among registered voters to support trump say he would definitely vote for him if the election were held today. it slides to 74% for biden. just about where it was for hillary clinton in the abc "washington post" poll four years ago at this time. why do you think that is? and how does biden fire up his voters and get more of them to commit to him? >> yeah. i think what joe biden needs and a problem hillary clinton had is it can't just be about beating donald trump and anti-donald trump as a message. you have to get individuals to come out for a reason. so you have to speak to voters and tell them why they should vote for you, not just why they shouldn't vote for the other guy. >> and the president has his own risks. look at disapproval. 53% which is up seven points since late march. what do you think is driving these numbers and how much do you think it has to do with the

pandemic? >> so much to do with the pandemic. we have now an unprecedented crisis growing unemployment numbers and now cities across the country are really burning. i think so much does have to do with this pandemic and it's only going to continue to get worse as we continue to feel lack of, or a failure from leadership from donald trump. >> aboigail tracy from "vanity fair," thank you. and focusing on the three other minneapolis lis officers in the george floyd case. what possibly charges if any, could they be facing. so you can keep your patients cared for. your customers served. your students inspired. and your employees closer than ever. our network is resilient. our people are strong. our job is to keep your business connected . it's what we've always done.

in the wake of national unrest over the death of george floyd i spoke with martin luther king iii yesterday and asked how he thinks justice can be achieved. >> it obvious to most of the nation that there should have been prosecution, or some prosecution of all of those officers who were standing

there, and it was the officer who actually had his knee on the neck of mr. floyd and other whose were there. i mean, any one of them could have said, hey, man. chill. back up. i mean a man is asking for help, and you are immune to what this person is saying? what kind of human being are you? and so there needs to be action taken swiftly against those other officers. >> joining me now, maya wily, msnbc legal analyst and professor at the news school. welcome, my friend. get into this here. your reaction to what martin luther king iii said there and do you expect to see charges against the other three officers? >> i certainly agree with mr. king, that we had expected to see some form of charges. we saw videotape that came out after the first horrific tape that showed that officers, other

officers, in addition to officer chauvin were on mr. floyd's back, and this is at the point where he's crying out about his inability to breathe. so there's certainly what we would call probable cause for an arrest, and i think the reality is that we may still see those arrests. i think there is an expectation of them. i certainly think if there are no arrests, there better be a very strong discussion of evidentiary facts mitigated against that but we aren't seeing that in terms of what's in the public record. >> why is this taking so long? why have we not seen anything? you say that you think it is possible. do you expect to see an arrest of those three officers? what is it about a police officer that complicates everything? >> that's a really important question, alex, and let me break this down into a couple of different categories.

the first is, i don't know why we can't see arrests more quickly given that video, and i think part of the reason we're seeing so much anger, so much pain and so much protesting is similar to the ahmaud arbery case in georgia. there were, there was a delay and there appeared to be a reticence from prosecutors to move quickly, and that is something didn't -- and that protests begin to be the things that get response. one of the problems we have as a structural arrangement, i think is that prosecutors work very closely with the police department. they're a team. there have been years of discussion about reform in terms of how we might have independent prosecution of police misconduct cases so that we take into account the fact that there's a partnership relationship between

prosecutors and police departments. it's one of the reasons that we have times when the federal government is called in to do civil rights criminal investigations of police misconduct, but, of course, the laws of the federal government, what they're looking at are a different set of laws than what's available to district attorneys. i'm not accusing and certainly don't mean to sthauuggest that know what was in the minds of prosecutors in that county. i'm simply saying there's no question that there's a body of research and discussion about the fact that there is a symbiotic relationship between the police and prosecutors, and there's also a lot of concern about how grand juries work. it's a legitimate concern of prosecutors in a state and half the states in the country require these types of felony charges to go to a, to actually come through a grand jury to be charges. the complaint comes, then a grand jury decides about indictment, and the average

person, unfortunately, does not always understand exactly how the police can engage in misconduct and that means it has been very difficult to get grand juries to indict police officers. we saw that here in the "i can't breathe" case of eric garner. we were devastated that we didn't see indictments coming out of the grand jury in staten island. so it's also possible that prosecutors are being very careful to make sure they're d building their case, but there really is difference between arrests and figuring out all the charges and i certainly hope we might see superseding of the complaint. some amendment. >> it was a complicated question there, and warranted that very lengthy and appropriate answer. thank you for illuminatings all on that. good to see you. thanks to all of you for watching. i'm alex witt. ri i'll be back at noon eastern.
