in our school as well. and a lot of tiles, they're scared to come forward because they're still closeted or still transitioning, so we want to respect their privacy. but their parents are coming. we know there are parents who have said if my child's teacher refuses to use their preferred pronouns, i don't want my child being taught by that teacher, so, you know, there's a lot involved in this. and again, we just put it back on the students and doing what's best for students in every way that we can. >> loudoun county under a distinct national spotlight. dr. scott ziegler, i'm so appreciative of your time this morning making news on this show about that appeal to the virginia state court. thanks for being with us, craig melvin picks up our coverage on msnbc right now. ♪♪ and a good friday morning to

you, craig melvin here. an image meant to inspire confidence and unity on a shaken global stage. that family photo of america and our allies standing shoulder to shoulder, the first day of the g7 summit in the united kingdom just got under way. right now, president biden meeting with his counterparts there. like any family, there are differences. but there are also some key issues of agreement this morning. of course, we can't forget the big meeting on the horizon. president biden and russian president vladimir putin, reporters just asking president biden about it this morning. >> mr. president, what's your message to putin? >> back here at home, we're following big developments on capitol hill, a bipartisan deal on infrastructure, new hurdles with police reform talks and a

sharp focus on voting rights. and there's a big new revelation related to the former president's tenure. "the new york times" thursday headline reads, "hunting leaks trump officials focused on democrats in congress." nbc has now confirmed that the trump doj seized the records of some congressional democrats. and this morning, new calls for an investigation. more on all of these developments coming up in just a few moments. but we start over the pond on the first day of the g7 summit in the united kingdom. i want to bring in stephanie ruhle and gayle lemond. let me start with you, gayle. we want to see how president boris johnson is reacting. >> so much we want to do

together with us, from security, nato to climate change. it's refreshing, it's a breath of fresh air. >> on top of that, gayle, there's a new pew research study out now conducted between march and may, shows that the united states is viewed favorably by 62% of the world, compared to 34% at the end of the trump administration. how far can this foreign trip go in boosting america's global image, with both our allies and our adversaries, especial little ahead of that critical meeting between president biden and president putin? >> there's the image and then the substance, right. the family photos say so much because like many families there are disagreements internally and there are real external challenges. and the question is can the u.s. sell a brand vision, in the era of local interests? can the use convince folks that what brings them together is

much bigger than the challenges? this is a phrase for a set of ideas that has buffered the world since world war ii. and can america pivot to the notion that america is back, be enough to bring people with very disparate issues together that they're trying to get the world off the sugar high from the economic stimulus to get the world through an impossible time that was the pandemic. >> nbc's mike memoli is traveling there with the president there in the united kingdom. mike, i want to bring you into the conversation. the first full day of the g7. we've gotten a little taste of how president biden mixing the personal with policy in that first meeting with boris johnson there, the prime minister of the uk. take us through the big issues, mike, the big issues driving today's meeting and how president biden is looking to

really reassert america's rule in tackling those issues. >> well, craig, these leaders have a very full agenda as they're now meeting behind closed doors. dealing with the pandemic, economy, climate, as well as cyber, at the tom of that agenda. let's not discount gayle's point, those public pictures that we saw as the leaders arrived here in cornwall this afternoon. i's a very striking picture because we haven't seen this in two years. these leaders many of them have not been together in this setting since 2019, 2020, of course, the year of the pandemic, when the u.s. should have hosted the g7 but was unable to do so. and it's significant in the way that president biden is approaching the summit. that is, he has said so often, america is back and he wants to set the agenda, including leading the charge and tackling that commitment of 500 million doses of pfizer shared around the world. and as he said, leading the u.s.

with the global economic recovery as well. you know, i covered the campaign quite a bit there was a term we heard the president use it so often, we also heard it today from the uk prime minister as he kicked off the g7. let's take a listen to that. >> we need to make sure as we recover, we level-up across our societies and we build that better. and discussing how we'll never have a repeat of what we've seen, but also that we're building back better. together. sand building back greener. and building back fairer. and building back more equal. >> reporter: building back better, of course, was biden's economic agenda in the campaign. it's now the global agenda here at the g7. of course, craig, on the schedule today, not just these important behind-the-scenes meeting but the g7 leaders are having dinner with the queen,

queen elizabeth ii making her way to the world stage after the death of her husband. and first lady jill biden so comfortable with the duchess of cambridge and it was our andrea mitchell who got the duchess to react saying she can't wait to see her new niece lilibet diana. >> so much happening there. stephanie ruhle, an issue that seems to unite the leaders. the economy, they're endorsing a global minimum tax of aft least 15% for companies. what exactly is a global minimum tax? and explain why that would be an important step. >> first, your look is on fire today, craig. that blazer is outstanding. i appreciate you wearing it, you're a fashion plate. two, global minimum tax, okay. the united states is considered a high-tax country so you have lots of massive, multinational

billion dollar companies that move their profits, move headquarters to lower tax countries to pay a lower tax. it's legal, but we certainly don't like it. that's why a lot of republicans don't want joe biden to raise taxes because the argument is let's take some taxes from them, rather than none. none meaning they're going to move their headquarters to another country then we'll get no taxing and we'll get no jobs. so this idea of a global minimum tax to prevent companies from playing real estate hop scotch so they don't have to pay tax, it's a goody in theory, janet yellen wants it to happen, otherwise, it's a race to the bottom. it's good to see the g7 countries saying, yes, let's create a global minimum tax of at least 15% to prevent companies from doing this, however, craig, the devil is in the details. while they're saying, yeah, they like it now, it's going to get a lot harder when we move to the

g20. you've got countries like ireland. we're at 21% corporate tax rate. they're 12.5%. they're 12.5% because that's how they attract bo leave the u.s. and go to ireland. there's a very good chance china doesn't participate. while we sit at a table and say, well, this makes sense. if you're one of those countries that has the low rate and you use it to your advantage, you're most likely not to sign on to this, so it's going to get challenging when they make their way to the g20. >> gayle, you write regularly on afghanistan's policy and government. president biden said we're leaving by september. it's been san issue with the allies for decades now, america's longest war, of course. what are you watching for, listening for, during this summit on this particular issue? >> i mean, there's a whole set of questions right now about

what is the g7 doing for the world. it's a fight for a relevance. and nato is facing the same challenge. there is a huge navy for the ability to counter authoritarianism. i think the folks in the room would have that. and then how do you get there and then the question is then what? how do you think about continuing to support security forces? continues to support referrals? and continuing to make sure whatever aid or recognition goes to, or what's next in afghanistan will be dependent on minority rights. so you have this hunt for equity. and then the discussion of how do you counter rising authoritarianism across the globe? i think that will be plenty to keep themoccupied while what binds is greater than what separates them, there's no

question that the external challenge is front and center on the minds of each of them. >> gayle, thank you, mike memoli, traveling with the president there in the united kingdom. and stephanie ruhle, the biggest thanks to you on this friday morning. enjoy the weekend, my friends. be well. and speaking of president biden's meeting with vladimir putin, tonight in an nbc news worldwide exclusive, keir simmons sits down with putin for a one-on-one interview just days before that summit with president biden. you can see a preview tonight on "nbc nightly news" with lester holt. and more of the interview will air on "today," msnbc, and "nbc nightly news." in the the last hour and a half the attorney for former minneapolis police officer derek chauvin making a big move. and now the associated press is

reporting that he's requesting, quote, a verdict to impeach the jury. for juror misconduct. it should be noted that request does not happen too often. prosecutors have some wednesday to submit written arguments in response. at this point, it's not clear when we could see the judge make a ruling. derek chauvin convicted of murdering george floyd, scheduled to be sentenced in two weeks. we continue to keep an eye on president biden's meetings this morning at the g7. we're going to bring you updates at cornwall ahead of the dinner just mentioned with the royal family. first up, back here, let's make a deal. a bipartisan group of senators say they have an infrastructure compromise that's ready to go. the big question now, will anyone else get on board? and with states across the country pushing new measures to make it harder to vote, attorney general merrick garland is speaking today on voting rights. we're going to get a preview of

that straight ahead. >> voting is a fundamental element of our democracy. in fact, without it, without the right to vote, none of the other rights follow. more protection, more sun, more joy. beach defense® from neutrogena® the suncare brand used most by dermatologists and their families, neutrogena® for people with skin. nobody builds 5g like verizon builds 5g because we're the engineers who built the most reliable network in america. thousands of smarter towers, with the 5g coverage you need. broader spectrum for faster 5g speeds. next-generation servers with superior network reliability. because the more you do with 5g, the more your network matters. it's us...pushing us. it's verizon...vs verizon. and who wins? you.

virtual meeting that's happening. just a few hours from now, on the right side of your screen, attorney general merrick garland. the attorney general is going to be giving what's being called a policy address on voting rights. our justice correspondent pete williams is looking ahead to that. nbc's sahil kapur keeps an eye on that. pete, first to you, what will you be looking for from the attorney general at 2:00? >> i'll be looking at concrete steps that the federal government can take. the most concrete steps that the federal government can take is intervene in the stay lawsuits filed with tougher voting restrictions. the justice department can use the bully pulpit, the attorney general can criticize them, but the real force is to step in and use the position of the federal

government to advocate on behalf of the people who are criticizing the laws and say that they are unconstitutional or violate federal laws. there used to be under the voting rights act a requirement before the government made any changes in voting procedures changing the dates for advance registration, moving a polling place, anything, they had to get permission either from the justice department or a federal court. that all changed when the supreme court cut the heart out of the voting rights act. so, now one of the main ways that the justice department can use its influence is stepping into these lawsuits. so, i think that's the major question, will the justice department intervene in these cases. >> preclearance as it was known. sahil, coming to you for a moment that house hearing that just got under way a few minutes ago. i know you've been listening to that. what's jumped out thus far? >> reporter: that's right, craig, the democrats just

getting under way. and the democrat leading it, j.k. butterfield, starting off. with intersecting debates on capitol hill about voting rights. the first is over a bill known as hr 1, a sprawling democracy and lee election reform bill that would set a standard of voting rights in all 50 states. that bill has passed the house. it does not have a pulse in the senate. there's a separate debate going on, involving the john lewis advancement act that speaker pelosi says will be ready this fall, it faces an 81 hill climb to get the 60 votes need in the senate. it has the democrats on board and one republican senator. and that john lewis voting rights act would restore a portion of the voting act that pete just referred to, preclearance. it would apply the states to a history of discrimination to make changes to the federal government, before they make changes to voting laws.

can that be done in a discriminatory way, the argument from democrats is absolutely, yes. it has been. it can be. it is currently being done. and that's the kind of thing that democrats want to snuff out, they have a very tough uphill climb to getting something major done in congress, craig. >> mr. williams, before i let you go, i do want to ask you about this. a huge revelation, about the justice department under the immediate past president. "the new york times" first reporting this head line on thursday, quote, hunting leaks, trump officials focused on democrats in congress." nbc has now confirmed that the trump doj seized the reports of some congressional democrats including california congressman eric swalwell and adam schiff. this is part of what schiff told rachel last night. >> that is, i think, a terrible abuse of power. it violates, i think, separation of powers but it also making the

department of justice just a fully owned subsidiary of the president's personal legal interests and political interests. and it does such damage to the department. >> pete, the doj hasn't commented so far. but what else do we know at this point? where could this all be headed? >> well, what we know is there's probably at least a dozen of these subpoenas, the justice department subpoenaed, rather, the recordings of at least a dozen people. the two congressmen you mentioned. some of their staffs. family members including one minor child. the subpoenas were sent to apple for data. now, we don't know exactly what data they were looking for. was it cell phone records? was it text messages? was it emails? we don't know because the members of congress say they don't know either. and that's one of the things they've been trying to get the justice department to tell them. they've expressed some frustration that they're not getting answers to their questions. so where does it go?

there will certainly be congressional investigations. there are calls for the justice department's inspector general to look into it. >> pete williams, justice department on this friday. pete, thank you. sahil kapur on capitol hill, a big thank you as well. we're watching the g7 summit where president biden is huddling with the leaders, including that big dinner with the queen. first, though, new details of a very small but growing number of cases, a type of heart inflammation in teenagers and people in their 20s after getting the second vaccine. we're going to break it down with dr. kvita patel, next. i'm here and suddenly... ...my migraine takes me somewhere else.

where there's pain, and nausea. but excedrin pulls me back in a way others don't. and it relieves my symptoms fast for real migraine relief. i'm still exploring what's next. and still going for my best. even though i live with a higher risk of stroke due to afib not caused by a heart valve problem. so if there's a better treatment than warfarin, i'm reaching for that. eliquis. eliquis is proven to reduce stroke risk better than warfarin. plus has significantly less major bleeding than warfarin. eliquis is fda-approved and has both. what's next? i'm on board. don't stop taking eliquis unless your doctor tells you to, as stopping increases your risk of having a stroke. eliquis can cause serious and in rare cases fatal bleeding. don't take eliquis if you have an artificial heart valve or abnormal bleeding. while taking eliquis, you may bruise more easily and it may take longer than usual for any bleeding to stop. seek immediate medical care for sudden signs of bleeding like unusual bruising. eliquis may increase your bleeding risk

if you take certain medicines. tell your doctor about all planned medical or dental procedures. ask your doctor about eliquis. and if your ability to afford your medication has changed, we want to help. try one a day 50+ multivitamin gummies. with vitamins c, d & zinc for immunity support. your medication has changed, plus 8 b-vitamins for brain support. one a day and done.

this morning, the cdc is warning about growingest that covid vaccines may be linked to a heart issue. they're looking into a small, but higher than normal number of young people experiencing something called myocarditis, after their second shot, nbc's morgan chesky is in houston following this, and i also want

to bring in dr. kavita patel, dr. patel, a former obama white house adviser and an nbc contributor. what do you know about the cases of myocarditis and the links to the vaccine what do we know? >> reporter: there still needs to be more research, make that clear, craig. but they are saying there's higher cases of myocarditis, 16 to 30 year olds, 225 cases of myocarditis in that age group. initially, they were expecting 100 or 120 or so. so they're calling this a clear imbalance, but stopped short saying this is exclusively linked to the vaccine and saying more research needs to be done. myocarditis, of course, affects the heart by inflaming the heart muscle around it. and essentially can cause fatigue, shortness of breath. if one leans forward, it can

cause a pysyk type of chest pain. we do need to say, in the majority of these cases, that the study mentioned these patients recovered as soon as they received care. and it only lasted a day or two. but that said, it was important enough for them to come out here, address it to the cdc. and basically say that this is one of these things that's happening, as a result of the vaccines is. specifically, this study was addressing those who had either the pfizer or moderna vaccine. and that more research needs to be done in understanding the potential impacts here. particularly in a younger age population that would have initially been thought to not have been impacted the way it was. craig. >> morgan, thank you. dr. patel, put this in context for us how worried are you about these reports of heart inflammation in young people after that second shot? >> so, craig, i don't

arrogant and say if you're one of the participants dealing with it -- by the way, it's also younger adults. we're seeing this in generally men, as you heard kind of morgan talk about the age distribution. younger adults. i had a patient that had exactly these issues. so i don't want to dismiss it's a small number, 260 cases out of 130 million shots given. but it is enough for the signal that we look for clinically, that tells us that something could be related to the vaccine. having said that, to be very clear, craig, if this were my child, i have younger children that are eligible, when they are eligible, i plan on getting them vaccinated. if i had a 15-year-old, i would plan on getting him vaccinatebut i'd be hyper aware of these symptoms, here's why, morgan mentioned it most of these cases resolve. younger kids are athletes and participate in sports you do need to get them, one, evaluated

by a doctor. and seek the advice of a heart official, even though they may need to be hospitalized, but most are not. just to be monitoring so the heart muscle recovers fully. craig, the question is we have to weigh the risks of a vaccine, the benefits far outweigh them. i'd strongly encourage parents to get their kids vaccinated. all we need to do is reference a report that came out last week, young kids not vaccinated ended up with covid in the icu and intubated and that is really. >> while i have you, dr. patel, let's talk about this story that just broke in "the new york times," the "times" reporting according to people familiar with the matter, the fda has told johnson & johnson to throw out about 60 million vaccine doses made at the emergent biosolutions plant in baltimore. they say those doses must be discarded because of possible

contamination. it goes on, quote, the loss of 60 million johnson & johnson doses puts a dent in the biden administration's plan to distribute to other countries still in the grip of the pandemic." johnson & johnson not commenting dr. patel, but the cdc saying several batches are not suitable for use. >> as i understand how the fda works, craig, this shows rigorous scrutiny and oversight over the manufacturing process working. the issue at hand, there were over 100 million johnson & johnson doses as well as 70 million astrazeneca doses which we're not using in the united states made by emergent biosolutions. and one, it came to light and, two, the fda made a decision, albeit a hard one, but it is a

decision. it weighs on us as we're watching people die around the world but we don't want to have any sort of contamination. they at least cleared 10 million doses that could go abroad. and that's the beginning of preventing this from happening again. now, we know why this happened and the fda is going to work every day, hopefully, to make sure it never happens again. >> you've got cruises, dr. patel, starting up after a year at the dock. there's a cruise, celebrity "millennium" that required passengers to show proof of vaccination. and they also had to have a negative 72 hours before setting sail. two passengers at least have tested positive for covid so far. no guarantee in this pandemic. what advice do you have for >> yeah, look, i'd want to -- i'm in no way a cruise expert. but i understand covid.

and i will tell you, if you're expecting to go anywhere with zero risk, if you're fully vaccinated, you can go anywhere. but vaccinations does not prevent you from contracting the sars-cov-2 virus. and getting sick from covid. the fact that two people were positive, i know people are putting that on the front page, but that actually tells me for the rest of the passengers that works. for the two asymptomatic positives, for the cruise line's mandatory testing requirements don't fail. it shows it's working and we do get positive cases. that's the reality. people need to ask themselves, if i book this cruise ticket and i find out i'm positive, how would i feel about that even if i'm not sick. the answer is, you don't like it, and don't take that cruise today. but it will be some time before you're able to deal with that

question, if you're looking for certainty. >> good advice, as always, dr. patel. thank you, dr. kavita patel. enjoy your weekend. a bipartisan group of senators have struck a deal on infrastructure. but does anybody believe it's going to hold up? and can they get the rest of their parties on board? we'll check on negotiations. first up, one of the most highly anticipated movies of the year make a big splash.

congress isn't giving up on a possible bipartisan infrastructure deal, at least not yet. but a new kind of agreement between a group of ten bipartisan senators is already hit something snags. republicans are skeptical they can get the votes to break a filibuster with the current price tag. two sources familiar with the talks tell nbc it's a total of 1.trillion over eight years. democrats are frustrated how long things are taking. our capitol hill correspondent leigh ann caldwell follows the twists and turns. this latest plan being called plan "b" after the infrastructure plan fizzled out. what is the plan and does it get broad support? >> reporter: well, this plan is much bigger than president biden and some republicans were talking about. this is nearly $600 billion of

new spending which is a good differentiation over five years. but the problem is, it only has the support right now of ten senators. five republicans and five democrats. and there's a lot of concern that there is not going to be a path to 60 votes. the next votes to pass something in the senate. now, senator chris murphy mentioned, talked about this yesterday. let's listen to how he put it. >> i don't know that there's a scenario in which you can lose ten democrats and get 60 votes in the senate. so this package ultimately is going to have to have the signoff of every single democrat. >> reporter: the i thinkoff of every single democrat is going to be difficult. some democrats are talking about how they can't support this narrow. senator ed markey told me yesterday he cannot support any

legislation that doesn't have a massive climate change component to it. and that's one senator down. so there are many more like that, who think there are problems with this legislation. it is too small. and so this has a very tough path to the road to 60, craig. >> all right, uphill climb for infrastructure. let's talk about a different set of negotiations, police reform. that areas to be hit something road blocks as well. what more can you tell us about that leigh ann? >> reporter: it sure does over this section of 242 which is the criminal standard for police officers. now senator tim scott is reviewing draft legislative text about the issue. he thought that second 242,ing which that is a red line for him, was going to be put aside, not addressed at all in these negotiations. but in the draft from senator cory booker's office to senator tim scott, there are changes to this criminal accountability component. it adds four crimes for police

officers that they could be punished or prosecuted, if they commit those that include obstruction of justice, sexual misconduct, use of excessive force and theft. and senator lindsey graham told us last night this is unacceptable, a nonstarter. so they're going back to the drawing table on this issue anyway and figure out a path forward. craig. >> all right, leigh ann caldwell on the hill for us. thank you. meanwhile, newly unsealed court documents are shed something light on some of the earliest planning of january 6th insurrection of the capitol. several people charged in that attack are expected to be in court today. i want to the bring some investigative reporter scott mcfarland with our affiliate in washington. scott, let's start with this group associated with the group

called the three percenters charge with conspiracy. what do we know about them and back with their involvement on january 6th. craig, good morning, some of the 500 or so cases we read through, this one stands out not only was this group planning on challenging the election as early as november. this group is from california. according to the charging documents, they were planning to bring knives and bear spray and goggles but chose to drive so as to not to raise red flags at the airport. the phrase three perr percenter is a reference to revolutionary at the capitol and one got inside with a knife. the gentleman has not appeared in court. three percenters and oath

keepers, far-right groups who conspired ahead of january 6th, the most serious charge. there's an oath keeper in court this afternoon, one of 16 charged, he's seeking his release from jail. we'll watch that closely to see if the judge sets him free. >> you know, that court appearance you that mentioned. i want to ask you more about that, it's for the suspect, i believe, who wants to get out of jail. you flagged some of the accusations against him. they may be some of the most striking we've heard so far, why is that? >> reporter: yeah, craig, there are actually two different court hearings of men trying to get out of jail, one is an oath keeper, the other is ryan samsel accused of knocking down an officer. i'll note from his court filings he has a conviction history multiple times knocks women unconscious and beating his pregnant girlfriend. if the judge sets him free from

normal life after this pandemic is insight. but one thing that's not normal, these prices on everything from is prices. everything from your barbecue basics to clothing, cars. on thursday it was reported that the consumer price index jumped 5% in may, the biggest since august of 2008. we all remember what happened then. sam brock is following the real world effect. americans are dealing with a major case of sticker shock. where are we seeing the biggest price jumps? >> good morning. the consumer price index looks at a basket of things to get a sense of inflation overall. for the love of pete, cars going

up exponentially, 3% for new cars. used cars and trucks, 30% from where it was a year ago. part of the reason is ma manufacturers aren't making as many. there are cars shortages, labor shortages. i talked to them here, they said the cost is 30 to 35% a year ago. they eating a lot of those so consumers can get back into cars. but a lot of dealers aren't doing that. and food prices are inching up as well. the backyard barbecue scenario, the pork in your hotdogs is up 24%. eventually it will all trickle down to consumers. a single father of three worries

about what things will be looking like in the future. here is what he told us. >> there was a time when my already slim budget could keep us going for a good week, week and a half between grocery trips, but it's getting increasingly difficult to have a full shopping cart. >> and craig, overall, the cpi calculates food prices is up 2%. for airfare, like 24%, a lot of that in the last couple months. for clothing 5.5%. a third of overall inflation. this is a concern for anyone looking for big ticket items. there could be big upticks in the next couple months. the key is getting more people

back in the labor force and getting trucks on the road. back to you, craig. >> sam brock at a used car lot in friday. before we go, it is said that the older you get, the harder it is to make new friends. but i talked to two men from very different worlds who managed to do that. one newly retired and the other homeless for nearly three decades. they shared with me how they forged their unlikely bond in the streets of california. in 2019 scott was recently retired and determined to use his time for good. you were in california and visiting your son. then what? >> i said i am going to do something i would never do, engage homeless people and robert and i connected like i

would never expect. >> robert had been living on the streetsz for 30 years. >> this man had a bike with everything he owned. with a smile on his face. i had a cold cup of coffee with a frown. >> robert took tike to open up. >> i told him my name was jack. i didn't grow to trust people. >> soon the two were having breakfast every day. scott realized that, like him, robert might gain from mental health care. but he knew it would take a while to gain trust. so he came up with a plan. >> what better way than to show i am i can live like he can live and then show the other side of the coin. i tell you, you don't need more than a day to realize how invisible you become.

>> robert, what did you think when scott said he was going to spend a night on the street. >> i thought he was joking. i am dirt poor. >> it worked. he visited the local service center where he was diagnosed with schizophrenia. >> what did you find? >> i found that i could trust people. >> scott went back to at the east coast and offered to do one more thing -- >> scott offered to look for real estate and that threw me off. i thought he is going to buy a house for me? that's not happening. scott looked all over the country for a new home for robert before settling on a

cabin in rhode island where scott and his family lived. by 2020 robert was a homeowner and the two men had forged an unshakable bond. >> he is my only infrastructure to any kind of communication. for the love of god, it was a blessing. >> yes, it was. robert is on a treatment plan and doing well. scott is on his way to heaven. that's going to do it for me this hour.
