good afternoon, everybody. i'm yasmin vossoughian, coming to you live from washington, d.c. we're going to have the latest on whether it lived up to its billing. plus we have new efforts by the biden administration to deal with a massive surge of haitian migrants at the border. new reaction to the pentagon's admission and apology for a drone strike that hit afghan civilians including seven children. and then there's the latest fallout to an fda panel's decision denying booster shots to most americans and we're just a couple hours away from splashdown for the latest historic leap by spacex. more on that ahead. we're going to begin, though, at the u.s. capitol where hundreds have gathered in support of the pro trump mob that stormed the

capitol building on january 6th. nbc's elson barber on the ground with the latest for us. it seems at this point, right, the rally is now over. we were out there together a little while ago. how have things transpired since then? >> reporter: yeah, let me just let you look with me to show the kind of little bit that is left of the police presence over here. you can see it's very much whittled down. when you look out in the crowd you see little groups of pockets of people here. but it's still unclear whether or not they were part of this protest, this rally or whatever you want to call it or if they stopped by to see things afterwards. capitol police say 400 to 500 people were inside the protest area that's excluding law enforcement. i would say about half of those were members of the media. it seemed like there were couple hundred people here specifically for this protest. the organizer of this rally says that this was specifically meant to be supporting nonviolent

individuals who have been arrested, detained because of alleged crimes tied to january 6th. but that organizer has been very clear, very adamant in saying their support is only for nonviolent offenders and that they do not support violent offenders. but the first person they brought up to try and make that point was a woman who identified herself as the girlfriend of a man named jonathan melis, an individual by that name is accused of violent acts on january 6th. according to the criminal complaint a jonathan melis was captured on police body worn camera hitting officers with a blunt weapon on january 6th. some sort of large stick and repeatedly striking it and making stabbing movements towards the officers with the weapon in his hand. i mean, look this protest, this rally whatever you want to call it today, everyone here that we spoke to seemed to be acting like there were hundreds of people who were here on january

6th that have been indefinitely detained in prison and they had simply poked their head through a door that was already open, and that is simply not true on any level. both you and i were there that day. we know that is not true. you look at the numbers, over 600 people have been charged with crimes on what happened related to january 6th. the most recent account i've seen of people still detained in police custody is 63. when you look at an indictment of two men from pennsylvania just earlier this week, they're accused of violent crimes. and as far as we know those individuals are still being detained. from where i'm standing, what i saw on january 6th, from what i heard today, i did not hear very much of anything rooted in any reality or actual facts of what happened that tay or what the situation is right now. yazman? >> it seems very much a distortion of reality what happened on the ground and that day. the man behind today's rally was one of the people i spoke to

outside the capitol earlier today. i want to play just a little bit of our exchange. >> many innocent people we believe were sucked up and overcharged disproportioned to the people in the past. the same people who did it -- >> the people who did it with cortez didn't break windows and storm into the capitol building. >> we're not talking about people who broke doors and windows. >> people who did that with cav gnaw knew they shouldn't do that too. they were not turned into domestic terrorists. >> let's talk more about this. former dhs chief of staff. talked to him yesterday along with today. as i said to elson it seems very much like there's a distortion of reality of what took place. he was very clear about what he believes should happen to the

people that in his mind broke the law, the people that stormed the capitol building that, you know, called for the life of nancy pelosi, for speaker pelosi, right? but he said to a certain extent there were a lot of people that just walked into the doors of the capitol, right just innocently walked in the doors, didn't know they were actually breaking the law. for those people, they are standing up, right? what do you make of that assertion? >> yeah, i mean, look, you said it yourself, yasmin, this is a distortion of reality. i've been following terrorist attacks for years and there's no question this was a domestic terrorism attack. there were people who were responsible for the deaths of police officers, the injury of police officers, people calling for the kid nap and possible murder of the vice president of the united states. i mean we're lucky it wasn't even worse than it actually was. so make no mistake this was a domestic terrorist attack, and i think the footage shows it. now, look, yasmin, as far as

today's rally of radicals goes i think the good news i have more people at my high school graduation party than they were able to turn out. so looks like attendance was relatively low and violence was relatively low today. that's good. but the bad news is even though they were able to muster a moderate sized to come to this event today there were many who have the views as the organizer you spoke with. we just talked about very worrying numbers out of the university of chicago which found 1 in 10 americans believes violence is justified to restore donald trump to the presidency. 1 in 10. that's more than 20 million americans who believe violence should be used to put donald trump back in the white house. that's very concerning and that's what we should be focused on today, not just the fact these organizers did a bad job throwing an event. >> i think it's also something we need to address when it comes

to the information and where they're getting their information from. a lot of the folks i spoke to on the ground here today very much think the election was stolen, the folks they showed up today. i asked them where they're getting their information from. another person told me it was an antifa fighter who started january 6th, a black lives matter protester. and i said no sir, i was there that day, it was not. and i heard this narrative before. and i ask them specifically where you're getting this type of information and they're getting them from these websites i've never heard from in my entire life, these conspiracy theorists. we need to stand against the big lie, extremists rallying against the capitol today speaking to republican leaders saying you need to stand up against folks like this, but what about dispelling the disinformation out there that so many of these people and individuals are getting their news from? >> yeah, i mean make no mistake, yasmin, there's a disinformation pandemic sweeping the country,

and the challenge for those elements of the united states government that were created years ago to prevent election interference and to combat disinformation is that those mechanisms were designed to thwart disinformation from foreign governments. so during the post-election period when the president himself was the one actively fanning the flames of the big lie, all of those mechanisms that the national security community had put in place largely fell flat because they weren't disciped to counter false information from the president of the united states himself. and this is a big problem we face. so, look, if the u.s. government apparatus designed to protect us from disinformation operations can't do so, then it's incumbent upon our national leaders to do the same. and what we saw with many of them mostly in the republican party they did the opposite and they continue to do the opposite, and that's where i think the bulk of the responsibility lies here. it's on the feet of republican members of congress who continue to propagate the big lie, and in some cases even sympathize with

these individuals who have been arrest fwrd the insurrection. today's rally was called justice for january 6th and that's the only thing about it i can uh-uh agree with. i believe like others that the criminals need to stay behind bars. >> miles tiller, thank you as always for joining us on this. we appreciate it. an fda advisory committee giving the go ahead for booster shots but not for everybody. for 65 and older and those with serious health issues that put them at high risk for severe covid. but they overwhelmingly rejected boosters for people 60 years and up which the white house had championed. i'm going to talk about all of this with dr. peter hotez in our next hour. and as the u.s. is crossing 42 million reported cases tennessee is leading the nation in new infections per capita with an average of over more than 8,300 cases reported every

single day. the state is lagging in vaccination rates making things even worse hospital resources are dwindling. let's go to knoxville where we find nbc's liz mclaughlin. liz, talk to me about the situation there when you think about some of these astounding numbers, how hospitals really they're buckling under the pressure of these high covid numbers. >> reporter: absolutely. it's nothing short of a dire situation. and here in eastern tennessee they're being hit especially hard. we're looking at icu beds as one of the biggest challenges here in this region of eastern tennessee. they have these community calls three times a week where they kind of talk about the capacity. and sometimes there are zero icu beds for adults available, zero. other times statewide there's between 2 and 6% available. so really dwindling, and resources are very much stretched thin. this surge is even higher. some numbers even higher than the winter surge we saw before the vaccine was widely available to the population.

we're seeing more patients not only in volume, but they're sicker. so more patients on ventilators, more patients that need icu beds, and of course that's putting a strain on the staff and the especiallized staff needed who are taking on more and more case loads. some nurses are quitting. the national guard has come in to help a lot of these hospitals in areas just recently. some national guard members came in a couple days ago to this facility behind me, the university of texas medical center. and in tennessee it's actually tied west virginia now, those highest number of covid cases per capita. they're also in the lowest for those vaccination rates. and the death rate for covid patients now is just sharply increasing. and almost all of them we're talking 90% are unvaccinated patients. interestingly in this vaccine hesitancy a lot of these areas, monoclonal antibodies are somehow more accepted even

though it is a synthetic treatment and has a lot of limitations. there is an increased demand for it including here at the university of tennessee medical center. and i actually spoke to a doctor today, and he said that the demand is increasing, that they see about 70 patients a day that need this treatment. and that helps them prevent to be hospitalized, but the federal government is actually limiting that supply, about seven states mostly southern states with those low vaccination rates are accounting for 70% of the nation's supply of these monoclonal antibodies. here's what a doctor had to say. >> i do have real concerns about if the supply becomes less for this region or for any regions that are dealing with a lot of covid-19, the whole point of that therapy is that it help those who get treated who are at higher risk, it minimizes their chance of ending up in the hospital. and so if we treat fewer patients, then you can see we're going to end up with potentially

more hospitalizations. and that makes that situation we've been talking about potentially even worse. >> reporter: and to make this bad situation worse, again we're at the university of tennessee medical center. and it's just a concern that not only will patients not have this treatment if there are shortages coming up but perhaps not a hospital bed. back to you. >> making a situation even more dire. liz mclaughlin for us. still ahead, everybody, we've got new information on the plan to deal with thousands of haitian migrants surging the border. morgan chesky is going to join me from texas. also you've got spacex splashdown, what to expect as the crew of civilians prepares to return to earth in just a couple hours. we'll be right back. earth in ja couple hours we'll be right back. power,

welcome back, everybody. we've got heart breaking reaction today from family member of the ten afghan suvens mistakenly killed. telling nbc news their family was not received -- has not received excuse me any direct apology from the united states. quote, first of all they could call to our family and apologize to the mother of every child. he added in one minute we lost everything. this reaction has come in less than 24 hours after the pentagon admitted the, quote, tragic

mistake the august drone strike did not take out an isis target as they had claimed but instead killed ten civilians including seven children. joining me now msnbc international affairs analyst and msnbc correspondent. and barry mccaffrey, msnbc analyst. i want to get your reaction first to the tragic situation that has unfolded in afghanistan, hearing from the parents and family members of these ten civilians that were killed in this mistaken drone strike. seven of them children. >> it's devastating. i've been watching afghan news, afghan media seeing the interviews they've been doing almost daily with these families as soon as there's more information. and these mothers, they're so cried out that their tears are dry now. they're devastated. one of the mothers talks about walking outside and seeing the body parts of her toddler.

it's a devastating situation. and the family wants an apology. they're grateful it's been released now that their family members were not members of a terrorist organization. that is something they wanted -- they want a direct apology. and yes there's talk about compensation and, you know, that's helpful for families all over afghanistan because people in afghanistan are facing a humanitarian crisis, but money doesn't bring back loved ones. and unfortunately when we talk about drone strikes, when we talk about over the horizon attacks, strikes that are going to be discussed in the future when it comes to afghanistan, we need to remember these faces. and we need to remember that intelligence sometimes isn't the right intelligence, and it's something we've seen in the last almost ten years now. there have been a lot of civilians who have died this way. yes, some terrorists have died, too, but a lot of civilians. and that's turned a lot of afghans against the international mission that was in afghanistan.

>> general, she brings up a really good point about these kind of mistaken drone strikes, right, and the intelligence that they're relying on for these targets. you think about the kind of indiscriminate bombing that went on during the trump administration when it came to yemen. you think about the drone policies under the obama administration as well. i mean, this is not new to this country's military policy overseas. mistakes have been made, hospitals bombed, weddings as we well know bombed. how do you change things? how do we right this wrong and not continue to kill civilians in the fog of war? >> yeah. by the way, the yemen attacks are carried out by saudi arabia not the united states. but to the case at hand obviously it's a mistaken strike, a great tragedy. it's over the horizon. those drones are sometimes flown from 7,000 miles away.

in this case it actually monitored a vehicle for eight hours. i say that because i would argue these drone strikes are immeasurably safer than an f 16 or 155 artillery round. but one way or another in a major city of 6 million people, surgical strikes are a misnomer. i think what i'll have to say happened was the lone suicide bomber that killed over 200 people, afghans primarily but also 13 u.s. troops put peoples teeth on edge, and they thought they had a truck bomb coming in. and this was an incorrect strike. >> so do you think that the response, general, was too hasty and that's one of the reasons this mistake was made? >> well, we'll find out. i mean at some point there's probably a 20-year-old e4 and,

you know, a 40-year-old lieutenant colonel controlling the surveillance and the attack. they thought they had it right. they totally misinterpreted what they were seeing, and we didn't in that city in violent conditions, hundreds of thousands of people trying to get out of there, we didn't have any eyes on the ground to corroborate. again, it was a tragedy. it was a mistake during a chaotic evacuation of tens of thousands of people out of kabul. >> one more thing, general, and then i want to go back to tia because you bring up this idea of a lack of human intelligence. this is one of the concerns going forward. when you think about how americans need to continue to protect their own national security in afghanistan on the ground, one of the things that will be lacking going forward in that region will be human intelligence because we have now suns subsequently pulled out. so i think the worry going forward and i wonder if it's one of your concerns things like this could happen again because

no longer that human intelligence. >> well, there's no question. but even with great human intelligence on the ground, even whether we had our afghan allies coordinating with us you do have mistakes in judgment and in the interpretation of data. you know, there were tens and tens of thousands of people killed by the taliban or by the afghan army fighting the taliban or by the u.s. fighting the haqqani network. it was a violent, chaotic 20-year war. and it's going to get tougher for us to monitor and strike isis and cal kida targets when we're out of the country, no question. >> tia, does the admission of guilt by the united states, by the pentagon by a general in front of the world, does that help when it comes to accountability, and what else at this point in your estimation needs to be done?

>> well, i think the only way it does help in a sense it does let the family have that information out there that their family members were not terrorists. but i was just watching an interview with one of the family members and they it's not enough. they say they want to take this to the highest international courts. they want someone to pay. they said literally even if they gave us all the money in america this wouldn't fix this problem. they want someone to be held accountable. and it makes sense. this was a grave failure of intelligence. yes, hindsight is 20-20. general mackenzie mentioned the time pressure, the pressure on future drone strikes. but another thing he mentioned was a white toyota corolla was the information they were given. clearly they had more information as well they might not be able to share, but white toyota corolla is basically like saying a black suv in america. there are white toyota corollas all over america and on top of

that they were able to follow that car for over eight hours. how could they not have followed what was going on in that house for eight hours? so this was a grave failure of intelligence. >> thank you to you both. appreciate it. all right, so just a couple hours ago the department of homeland security announcing a new plan to address the plight of more than 10,000 migrants packed under a bridge in del rio, texas. dhs planning to surge the area with border agents and attempt to either move individuals to processing locations or send them back to haiti, the country where most of these migrants came from. joining me now from del rio, texas, morgan chesky. how are things looking there on the ground today, and is there any word at this point how fast this new plan by the dhs could actually go into effect? >> reporter: yasmin, they look bleak and hot, and there is no firm timetable on when these new steps the dhs announced will actually be put into effect.

it's approaching 100 degrees right now. we're told they were able to process about 2,000 migrants within the past 24 hours, and yet the group has still swelled from 13,000 yesterday to now nearly 15,000 today. and the mayor of del rio tells me what concerns a lot of the border patrol agents who are about a quarter mile from where i am underneath that bridge with the migrants is that there are so many more still coming. and there are no easy answers here. we do know dhs has announced that they are sending 400 border patrol agents to try to shore up staffing. that's in addition to the fact the governor of texas, greg abbott has announced he'll be sending 1,000 state personnel, that includes state troopers and extra staff to come down here and facilitate because they simply feel overwhelmed at this point in time. we do know buses have been running nonstop for the last 24 hours taking the migrants that are here, primarily haitians through processing centers

located up and down the texas border. but it will be airplanes to make the biggest difference here to cut some of these numbers down to a more manageable level. dhs say they plan to strike those flights to deport those migrants back to haiti as soon as next week and they'll be flying to other processing facilities up and down the entire border not just here in texas. as it stands right now there are still medical needs here. it mayor tells me that multiple women have gone into labor underneath that bridge. and right now they need help in every single category to try to handle what they're calling a humanitarian crisis. yasmin? >> certainly sounds like it. morgan chesky, thank you as always for your reporting. coming up more of my reporting from today's capitol hill rally and i'm going to talk to one staffer still feeling the impact of what happened on january 6th. we'll be right back. on january 6th. we'll be right back. water? why?! ahhhh! incoming!

welcome back, everybody.

demonstration have just wrapped up at the usga capitol behind me in support of the insurrectionists who stormed the building back on january 6th. earlier i spoke with matt braynered, a former trump campaign staffer and the organizer of today's rally and some of those also in attendance today on both sides of the aisle. >> i just want to be transparent here. you feel as if the people that stormed the capitol, that wuked into the capitol -- >> the expect same way the people that did it with alexandria ocasio-cortez. >> but they didn't break windows or storm into the capitol building. >> we're fought talking about people who broke windows and doors. the people who did that with kavanaugh knew they shouldn't do that too. we're demanding equal protection, equal treatment under the law. >> we're here to demonstrate against inincarceration of the guys who went into the capitol on january 6th. they may have committed a crime

but in this country you're presumed innocent until you're convicted. >> there were a lot of people that stormed the capitol. it was a large proportion of people. >> stormed, that's a loaded word. a lot of people went into the capitol. >> everybody who broke into that capitol should have been arrested, should be arrested, and nobody should be calling them political prisoners. >> all right, so those who were on capitol hill back on january 6th experienced unspeakable trauma and continue to live with that every single day including my next guest, remington, bellford. we see how fragile our democracy is. remington, thank you for joining us on this. i appreciate it. i wanted to talk to you because i feel as if it's important for folks to understand just how january 6th affected people that were inside that building. how are you doing today watching

this rally gather outside the capitol? >> well, i will say it's difficult triggering. first let me begin by saying thank you for having me. secondly i'll say it's triggering. i know a number of staff and elected officials are choosing to stay inside today because unfortunately this display of egregious behavior, there's no guarantee that it won't evolve into something more dangerous and something more draconian. and so, unfortunately, a lot of us are triggered but we're waiting in bated breath just happening nothing additionally negative comes about from this rally. >> what do you make of this idea from some of these folks saying, yeah, sure there were some people that, you know, broke the law. is that or in the senate chamber that shouldn't have been there, but the large majority of people just walked in peacefully into the capitol building. >> i'm going to -- i'm not going to mince my words. i'm going to say that's a

blatant lie. everybody who was there who saw it, who experienced it, saw the display of hatred and violent behavior, fashioning weapons out of flagpoles and breaking windows and stealing -- you know, spewing hatred in the form of racial epithets at police officers who were battling for their lives to protect the people who were inside the capitol. and i'll say that unfortunately this type of behavior is why we have to continue to tell the story like it happened because it's this whitewashing and changing of the narrative is truly disheartening because i was there and i'm traumatized. and people need to know it was not a peaceful, lackadaisical walk into the capitol. it was an insurrection and i venture to say an armed insurrection. >> i want to read something you said because it's really

poignant and speaks to kind of the emotional reaction that has taken place for you after january 6th. i don't have any type of grace to give them. i saw one of the members of congress who's been pretty notorious and involved in that and i had this feeling of i i won't say fear but concern and wanting to place distance between her and i. does it give you some solace, remington, that there is now a congressional investigation into the insurrection on january 6th? >> well, i will say it does give me a degree of solace just because i believe there should be a comprehensive investigation conducted into the events that, one, led up to the insurrection, the happening and then the following oof the insurrection. however, i'm still a bit skeptical because as i said earlier there are elected officials in my opinion who helped to advance this insurrection, who are in my opinion are directly responsible for the gravity of this

insurrection. and i believe them to be in potentially positions of power. and so it may not be as comprehensive as we'd like it, but i'm very proud that under the leadership of speaker pelosi and the number of other elected officials, i know there will be a comprehensive investigation conducted. but i'll still cautious. i'm still worried, and i'll still holding my breath to be honest with you. >> one last question for you, remington. some of what i heard in this crowd was these folks essentially saying to me these people are being unjustifiably held, they're being mistreated. they are in dirty prison cells and so on and so forth, none of it fact based. i had never heard many of these people speaking up when it came to the criminal justice system, when it came to black men being unjustifiably held and prosecuted in the criminal justice system in this country. how does that make you feel as a person of color who survived january 6th and understanding the motivation for these folks?

>> it's disgusting, i'm going to be completely frank with you. as a black man i've seen the trauma and the toll that it takes on us when you see police brutality of unarmed men and the unnecessarily aggressive dance a lot of these police departments take against people of color. this is in no way similar, and i think the conflation of the two suggests just how low and how lacking in viability this argument is. anyone who knows, that experiences the plight of people of color at the hands of police officers over this past year and throughout our history know the conflation of angry sycophants because storming the capitol because of their choice not being elected has no bearing, no similarity to the -- to the plight of people of color experiencing police brutality

and a number of other systemic racist issues. and i'm disappointed that they would stoop this low but i'm not surprised. >> remington bellford, thanks for joining us. we're going to continue this conversation by the way at 4:00 eastern with the former assistant director of intelligence at the fbi, frank figliuzzi. i'm going to ask him what it says about our country's domestic extremist threats. >> up next the disappearance of a florida woman after she never came back from a road trip. ter came back from a road trip lucia. who announces her intentions even if no one's there. and sgt moore. who leaves room for her room. with usaa safepilot, when you drive safe... ...you can save up to 30% on your auto insurance. get a quote and start saving. usaa. what you're made of, we're made for.

way ahead of you. hey neal, you can earn 3% at drug stores!!! buddy, i'm right here. why are you yelling? because that's what i do! you're always earning with 5% cash back on travel purchased through chase, 3% at drugstores, 3% on dining including takeout, and 1.5% on everything else you buy. chase. make more of what's yours. my dvt blood clot left me with questions... was another around the corner? or could i have a different game plan? i wanted to help protect myself. my doctor recommended eliquis. eliquis is proven to treat and help prevent another dvt or pe blood clot. almost 98 percent of patients on eliquis didn't experience another. and eliquis has significantly less major bleeding than the standard treatment. eliquis is fda-approved and has both. don't stop eliquis unless your doctor tells you to. eliquis can cause serious and in rare cases fatal bleeding. don't take eliquis if you have an artificial heart valve or abnormal bleeding. if you had a spinal injection while on eliquis call your doctor right away if you have tingling, numbness, or muscle weakness. while taking eliquis, you may bruise more easily

and it may take longer than usual for 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. what's around the corner could be a different game. ask your doctor about eliquis. subway® has so much new they couldn't fit it in their last ad. like new smashed avocado and artisan italian bread. 100% wild-caught tuna. hold up! 100% wild-caught tuna ain't new! subway®'s always had 100% wild-caught tuna! y'all tried to sneak one in on the chuckster! welcome back, everybody. we want to bring you up-to-date on some incredible twists in the case of a missing woman that involves four states and a lot of questions, a lot of mysteries here. you have 22-year-old gabby petito last seen in august in utah while on a cross-country van trip with her fiance brian laundrie. now laundrie who police call a person of interest has

disappeared. nbc correspondent is now joining us for more on this. there are a lot of questions now in this case, not a lot of answers when it comes to the disappearance here of gabby. what more are we learning? >> hey, there yasmin. i can tell you the rourlss devoted to this complicated case are multiplying quickly, drones, dogs, dozens of police officers right now on the ground of a 25,000 acre reserve in florida searching for brian laundrie. brian is the fiance to missing gabby petito, a travel blogger who went on a cross-country trek with her fiance and never returned. last night police say that brian's family notified them that they haven't seen brian since tuesday. now, north port police say they don't know why that information was just brought to their attention, but it has seen launched an extensive investigation and search again of that 25,000 acres.
