i'm katy tur. we now know who donald trump was trying to reach. a white house support staffer was the one who rejected donald trump's call. the january 6 panel worries the call was an attempt to witness tamper and has referred it to the justice department. we do not know if d.o.j. is looking into it. we also don't know what this staffer might know or testify to. the committee has not even confirmed if that person will end up testifying. so temper your expectations. so far it's a lot of excitement for a lot of big question marks. the d.o.j. has narrowed down its initial request for documents from the committee. they are zeroing in on material focus on the fake slate of electors. prior to this, the d.o.j. asked the committee for every transcript of each of the more than 1,000 interviews it has conducted, which was not a small job. but that, so far, is the only

specific request the department has made for bennie thompson, the chair. our reporters and d.o.j. experts will tell us what, if anything, we should read into that. we also know today that former trump strategist steve bannon will go on trial next week for his contempt of congress case for refusing to answer the committee's question. his legal team lost a second team to delay his trial over publicity of the trial's hearings and as the man who tried to get trump in office prepares to go before a judge, there is also news today about what that man, the one he helped get into the office, is doing in 2024. donald trump telling new york magazine he's already made the decision about whether he will run again for president and that, quote, i feel very confident that if i decide to run, i'll win. it doesn't quite match up to the "new york times" reporting on how the republican party feels about him but i digress.

joining us now is ryan reilly, a justice reporter for us here at nbc news. also the "new york times" congressional reporter luke broadwater and former u.s. attorney and msnbc legal analyst joyce vance. ryan, you were always things january 6th committee panel and d.o.j. talk to us about this white house support staffer. do we know anything more? >> well, you know, we know the story about this idea that trump threw some ketchup and there was ketchup dripping down the wall and that donald trump was trying to undermine cassidy's testimony. i think if you put two and two together you might figure out who the white house staffer might have been. i think it's going to be a tough referral to the d.o.j. because this call didn't go through and it was denied.

in order to make some sort of case that this was, you know, trying to interfere in this investigation, i think you'd have to have more direct evidence of that and i don't think that just an attempt to contact that person is going to be something they move forward with but it does certainly speak to this broader pattern that we've seen and for trump to go off this committee any way he possibly can because i think the political exposure going forward, especially when he's considering this 2024 run. >> so the panel has not said whether they're going to be interviewing this person. if they're not going to be interviewing this person, why raise it in the first place, why put it out there so publicly? >> that's a good question. there's different incentives for d.o.j. and the committee and i think we've seen throughout the past year basically how those differing interests come to a head on many occasions if you look at the fake elector, steve, for example, d.o.j. preferably

wouldn't like to have confirmation of what they're looking into. there are very strict rules that make it difficult to -- the only way we hear if someone is getting investigated by a grand jury is if they tell us. this idea they're looking for a transcript and as soon as d.o.j. says, hey, we're looking for this transcript, then it's public. it's the investigation they don't necessarily like. they know once they request something from somebody over on the hill that news will be on msnbc very shortly thereafter. >> that is a good point. luke, let's talk more about the faulk electors and the dodge request. i know you've been reporting extensively on that. what can you tell us? >> we know the department of justice has been investigating this fake electors scheme for some time and they through

various grand juries have put out subpoenas to witnesses. bennie thompson made news yesterday that of the justice department's requests of the committee, they were specifically asking about information about this scheme. and that's important because of the january 6th committee's hearing digging in this, they tied that scheme directly to donald trump. they presented evidence on which trump got on the phone with ronia mcdonnell, the head of the nrc and how they could get volunteers to carry out the plan. the president himself very much involved in directing this plan to keep him in office. that said, i did get a call last night from a justice department source who said i don't know what bennie thompson is doing but we are still interested in getting 1,000 transcripts. we want all the interviews, not

you the fake electors. so don't believe our investigation is just limited to only the fake electors, we do want to review everything they have. >> so let's drill down on that because it's not just the narrow request for these interviews. you're saying that d.o.j. is still interested in all of it. >> yes, that's what i was told last night, that bennie thompson put out some information, maybe they weren't totally happy about that but they're still interested in receiving every interview they've done. they've interviewed some people all the way from the rioters, all the way from the top echelon from the justice department. in some ways we were interested to learn in the press and where the investigation was going and what specific documents they wanted but they don't want to limit themselves to just this one scheme. there were multiple attempts to overturn the election and i think they want to keep their option open.

>> that's news there. the idea they just wanted to talk about those fake electors would indicate to some out there that maybe they weren't going to go after the more broad accusations that the january 6th committee was revealing, was surfacing. how do you parse luke's reporting? >> well, i think they're exactly right to focus on that, katie. it's a very important point. it's consistent and i think if i were a prosecutor on this team, i would absolutely want access to all of the materials that congress has put together. they've done a remarkable investigation. it's both deep and wide and that information can be helpful in a number of places. but the elector's case, the elector's investigation presents itself in a very specific way if you're the justice department. it presents as a clear violation of federal law. it's an effort to interfere with an election, an effort to impede government function. it's the sort of conspiracy that

is readily provable if your evidence aligns. the real question is how far does it go? who's at the top of the pyramid of criminal culpability. what you want to do as a prosecutor is work from the bottom to the top. this is a separate conspiracy. this isn't the people who overran the capitol. this is starting with the people in the states, moving up and seeing who they talked to. perhaps getting to john eastman. if you're d.a. and you can flip john eastman, it's reassuring to see what the d.o.j. -- >> it's a big if if the d.o.j. will talk to him.

we do not know. some political implications if they were to wade through. lots of debate out there. i wanted to ask you about steve bannon, joyce, the judge denying a second attempt to delay this trial. what do you make of that? >> so defendants aren't really permitted to manufacture their own reasons to avoid standing trial, and that's exactly what happened here. bannon raised a host of reasons and i use the word reasons lightly, that would suggest that he couldn't receive a fair trial. but ultimately the judge said, no, you've been indicted, you've received discovery from the federal government, everything's set to go, there's no reason for further delay. so monday morning bannon will have a very precise choice to make, whether he wants to plead guilty or whether he wants to go to trial and i expect we'll see the latter approach and we'll have a trial.

>> all right, what can we expect at the hearing? >> they reserve the right to have future hearings in the future. you saw that with cassidy hutchinson where that was the last-month hearing that blew the roof off the investigation and potentially changed the direction of the justice department, though d.o.j. would caution you they have a lot of investigations going on in the background. i think that changed a lot of considerations that the justice department was considering and may have opened the door to potentially pursuing potential leads that weren't necessarily getting the most priority. you are going to have this interesting this evening next week. it's going to be a very busy week next week. you're going to have a bannon trial. maybe the first day of the week will be jury selection and you're quickly on thursday going to be getting into the potential

verdict coming back at the same time as we're having this hearing. all of those events could converge on thursday, there's a resort of nightmare for planning purposes for going forward in the next week. it's definitely one of those things to stay tuned and plan for. >> one of the questions i have, luke, is whether or not pat cipollone is going to confirm some of the more explosive testimony from cassidy hutchinson about the service, whether he knew anything about that, what he can tell the committee about the specific allegations that she made that he said to donald trump. we're going to break a ton of laws, we'll be charged with a ton of crimes -- i'm paraphrasing -- if you go and march to the capitol alongside your supporters. are we going to get more of that testimony? will we hear those

confirmations? >> everything is always changing with this committee. we also do know that he was not asked directly about those specific comments from cassidy hutchinson. >> can you tell me why he wasn't asked specifically about that? that seems weird to me. >> sure. our understanding from the reporting is that he indicated or his lawyers indicated to the committee before he went in that he didn't recall that conversation and would not confirm it. so they sort of knew that that wouldn't happen. so they didn't ask him about it. >> got it. luke broadwater. thank you very much. ryan reilly, thank you guys as well. and still ahead, we are going to go live to jerusalem. what president biden just said about his trip to saudi arabia and what he will not say to mbs. and back at home the economy isn't helping the president or at least perceptions of the economy are not helping. what people told cnbc about record high inflation and how they think president biden is

it is day two of president biden's trip to the middle east. he met with the israeli prime minister today. the two held a joint news conference where both vowed to stop iran from developing nuclear weapon. biden wants to revise the deal with tougher terms but he would like biden to stay out. president biden was asked if he would bring up the brutal murder and dismembering with the man the u.s. believes was behind

that hit. >> my views on kashoggi have been absolutely, positively clear. and i have never been quiet about talking about human rights. the question that i'm -- the reason i'm going to saudi arabia, though, is much broader, it's to promote u.s. interests. promote u.s. interests in a way that i think we have an opportunity to reassert what i think we've made a mistake of walking away from, our influence in the middle east. there's so many issues at stake that i want to make clear that we can continue to lead in the region and not create a vacuum. i will bring up, i always bring up human rights. >> joining me now from jerusalem is correspondent carol lee and

vali nasher, he has worked with world leader including barack obama and george w. bush and former secretary of state hillary clinton. the news conference covered a lot of ground there. i noticed in that sound bite when he was asked whether he'd bring up jamal kashoggi, he didn't say he would, he just said human rights. >> that's right, the president made no promise to mention jamaal kashoggi. what you hear from administration officials is that's not something they would telegraph going into a meeting like that. what heard from the president his views on this issue are very well known. can you imagine coming out of that meeting the big question is going to be whether or not he raised this and there's a lot of

criticism of this visit that he's making to saudi arabia from lawmakers on capitol hill to the families of victims of 9/11 to human rights activists and everyone is going to be asking the question of whether or not including jamaal kashoggi's family members, whether or not the president raised this directly with him. he's under a lot of pressure here and the question coming out of the meeting is whether or not he does indeed raise this directly. >> and what about the iran deal, carol? >> well, the iran deal, the israelis and the u.s. have disagreed on the iran deal. the israelis opposed the 2015 deal back then, they oppose reviving it now. we saw the president and the prime minister come out and try to show a unified unity between israel and the united states but their differences were clear from the start in their opening statements alone. they agree that the goal is to

stop iran from getting a nuclear weapon and that they will do what it takes to achieve that, but achieving that and what the approach should be is where they really start to differ and we heard the prime minister say diplomacy is not going to work and then we heard president biden say diplomacy is the way this should go. >> words will not stop me, mr. president. diplomacy will not stop me. the only thing that will stop iran is knowing that if they continue to develop their nuclear program, the free world will use force. >> i continue to believe that diplomacy is the best way to achieve this outcome and we'll continue to work with israel to counter other threats from iran throughout the region. >> now, we heard a lot from the president on this trip so far about integrating israel more in

the region, in relationship with his arab neighbors and that's designed to coordinate security, have more economic exchanges but it's really a counter to iran. that's one thing that is very different from 2015 when the u.s. was negotiating an iran deal and now waiting to see if iran accepts the deal. we also heard from the president today when he said that he's not going to wait forever for iran to accept the deal that the u.s. says is on the table but the big question is what does that mean, what does that look like, what is forever and we haven't gotten an answer to that. >> so, let's talk about the distinction that the president made and lipid was making, diplomacy. that's not just semantics. walk us through it. >> i think both of them stated what their positions are. here are two leaders going into election. the prime minister of israel was not going to come out and say he's supportive of the nuclear deal and iran going into the deal when he has to compete with

bebe netanyahu. and the president is not going to say the negotiations are dead because technically they're not. the negotiations are online going and nobody has basically declared the talks are over. so biden cannot have said anything other than they're going to pursue the diplomatic path. >> so you're saying essentially it's a set piece. i'm curious, though, about military action. at what point does israel say we got to go in there with force? what is the -- i hate to use this but what is the red line? >> well, this red line has been moving. i mean, iran now is far more advanced and when bebe netanyahu years ago was saying the situation was intolerable. and israel cannot take direct military action against iran without u.s.'s backing and the u.s. is not there while the

nuclear negotiations are ongoing and secondly this administration came in with the view that it does not want to start another major war. and as tough as you want to get on iran, that's fine but the president and the democratic party are not ready to say they're going to start another major war. >> i don't think any americans want to star a war to the region. they don't go well for anybody, not the united states especially, or in addition to anybody else. talk to me about i guess the desire for the iranians to go back into the nuclear deal. why would they want to rejoin, especially with the looming prospect of something like donald trump, maybe winning in 2024, pulling us back out or maybe somebody in the republican party also pulling us out of this deal. what's the desire on their end to start this all over again? >> let me just say that

everybody in the middle east that the president is trying to influence, the israelis, the saudis, iranians, they are all watching the american poll and expecting a republican victory, which makes president biden's hand much weaker. they want economic relief but not at any price. they want to make sure if they sign a deal the united states would implement it and they get something out of it and they don't get in the situation where they give up nuclear things and then two years from now things get reversed and it would be a repeat of what donald trump did. so i think the issue is not the terms of the deal but it's rather how much both the iranian leadership and president biden are willing to put political skin in the game to give certain kinds of guarantees to the other side to make it go over the line. and the talks are still ongoing. i'm not necessarily saying we're hopeful, but nobody's declared that it's over yet. >> vali nasser, thank you very

much for lending your expertise. and brittney griner's trial ended up without a verdict. griner faces up to ten years in prison. her legal team is requesting leniency and hoping the court takes her guilty plea and the insignificant amount of cannabis oil found in her possession into consideration. and janet yellen on rising inflation in the united states and what the government plans to do about it, what action will it take? and we'll look at the impact that rising prices has on president biden's polling. how does he convince the american public it's not his fault? ince the american public it's not his fault?

i'm on a mission to talk to people about getting screened for colon cancer, and hear their reasons why. i screen for my son. i'm his biggest fan. if you're 45 or older at average risk, you have screening options, like cologuard. cologuard is noninvasive and finds 92% of colon cancers. it's not for those at high risk. false positive and negative results may occur. ask your provider if cologuard is right for you. everyone has a reason to screen for colon cancer. if you're 45 or older, get started at missiontoscreen.com inflation in the united states remains unacceptably high and it's our administration's top economic priority to bring it down. >> unacceptably high but what is the u.s. treasury secretary, janet yellen, prepared to do about it? speaking at an economic conference in bali, yellen said

the administration supports efforts to -- excuse me, my brain stopped working for a second -- to get inflation under -- 9.1 under control. tom costello, save me from myself. >> the dow was down 600 points at one point. it's well off the worst of the session. janet yellen doesn't have the answer. the federal reserve is autonomous. it's really only up to the fed to try to do what it can to bring inflation under control. have you noticed, inflation is a very big problem. it's happening coast to coast. consumers are feeling the pain

in their wallets with annual inflation hitting its highest point in nearly 41 years. among the every day staples over the past year, higher costs for chicken and beef, a gallon of milling up nearly 60 cents and the price for a dozen eggs increasing by more than a dollar. but it's not just what we eat, prices are also going up for clothing, housing and utilities. at this food pantry in san diego county, families are stocking up on the essentials. some of them first time visitors. >> i'm out of work right now and so is my wife. so we really need this. >> before the pandemic, the san diego food bank served about 350,000 families. now adding in inflation, they're up to half a million every month. it's a struggle for them as well. >> when donations are down, the food bank has to buy food and that food was a lot more expensive today than it was two years ago. >> and across america, one of the biggest pain points have been gas prices but they seem to

be easing slightly, down 41 cent on average from a month ago but still many are feeling the pinch this summer as some families are now modifying their vacation plans. >> the cost doubled. it was going to cost us over $2,000 just to get there and back with fuel prices. >> reporter: instead of going to the grand canyon, amber and her family have postponed their vacation. >> i'd like to think we'll get back next summer but who knows at this point. >> reporter: the federal reserve expected to raise interest rates even higher to bring inflation under control. >> the fed really has only one tool. they just have one screwdriver. they can tighten, they can loosen. if you what you need is a saw or a hammer, they don't really have that tool. >> reporter: so we expect them to tighten rates again this month. 3/4 of a percentage point. and the betting is they will

tighten again in september, maybe a full percentage point. so that is really unprecedented, this kind of rate hike scenario. i should point out we are not alone in this. mexico and canada, we're on the part with the u.k., about 9% and the eurozone 8% to 9% depending on the country. it's very much a global phenomenon with global contributing factors. >> and there's parity with the eu and the american dollar. how are all those increased costs playing into the mid term? not well if you're a democrat under president biden. only 30% of americans approve of biden's handling of the economy and only 36% approve of his job overall. both are the lowest marks for any president in the survey's 15-year history. a large majority of americans

think president biden's efforts to fix the economy are either not making a difference or making the situation worse. joining me now to break all of this down is nbc news political editor mark murray. they would say a lot of these changes are out of his control and are because of the pandemic, yet americans are still blaming the president for it. walk us through these numbers. >> yeah. so, katy, first of all, that first job 36% overall rating and 30% economic handling, not only the lowest in cnbc's polling but also the lowest when you actual factor in the presidencies of donald trump and barack obama looking back at the past cnbc and nbc polls conducted by the same polling firms. as you were discussing, inflation is a really big driver of this.

cnbc poll found that 12% believe that president biden's policies have made thing better, 30% that he made things worse and 50% not much different at all. 88% believe it's only fair or poor and the poor being a majority of all respondents, katy. >> those are not great numbers. mark murray, thank you very much. and coming up, tops grocery in buffalo is reopening. tremaine lee is there. and what is it like to raise a child in a neighborhood plagued by gun violence? one chicago mom shows us the lab rat routine she goes through every single time she and her kids leave the house. >> we live in chicago but we're in a war zone. t we're t we're in a war zone.w can you see me ?

i can't! i'm just telling everyone! hey! for a limited time, get 50% off for back to school. visionworks. see the differenc.

what would you like the power to do? covid-19 moves fast, and now you can too by asking your healthcare provider if an oral treatment is right for you. oral treatments can be taken at home and must be taken within 5 days from when symptoms first appear. if you have symptoms of covid-19, even if they're mild don't wait, get tested quickly. if you test positive and are at high risk for severe disease, act fast ask if an oral treatment is right for you. covid-19 moves fast and now you can too.

the man charged in a racially motivated mass shooting at a buffalo grocery store has now been indicted by a federal grand jury for hate crimes. the 18-year-old suspect is already facing state hate crime charges here in new york. he's accused of murdering ten people in a supermarket massacre. now that supermarket will reopen tomorrow. buffalo community leaders are marks the reopening in a ceremony this afternoon. while some think it shouldn't reopen for good, it is the only grocery store. walk us through what it means to have this story open in the

community right now. >> reporter: certainly this community is still under enormous weight of unimaginable grief from the tragedy. tops food store is an oasis in the middle of a food desert. when this store shut down for two months, this community had to rely on companies and civil organizations to bring food in. but they're also in a sort of limbo. this community needs this as a resource but imagine the trauma of the friends and family works are who experienced the tragedy that day. let's take a listen. >> the need is demanding but do they want -- but do they want that one there? that becomes the needle in the haystack. so when you're able to listen and hear what the cries are in the community because the community does have a voice, it

might don't look as high up as a board of directors or banks or developers, but it has its own voice. it has its own temperature. and we need to check that temperature to see would it be a benefit or would it be an american horror story just to revisit that place? >> reporter: katy, that is the tension there, whether this store should open or not, but also, the community, with their voice lifted to open the store up again. it is an oasis, but where are the community voiced actually heard to open this store back up. >> tremaine lee, thank you very much. the daily threat of gun violence that terrorizes so many neighborhoods. nearly 1,400 people have been shot so far this year. it is july. while that is down from last year's record high when violence

surged during the pandemic, it is still a lot higher than in years past. so what do you do if you live there to keep your family safe, to keep yourself safe, to keep your kids safe? our correspondent spoke with one mother who said she goes through an elaborate security routine every time she leaves her house. and this mother told you she feels like she lives in a war zone. that's chicago. >> reporter: katy, that's absolutely right. it's often the firsthand accounts of survivors that dp unnoticed. that single mom told me she feels like she's in a war zone and it's something she wants people to know. >> i have the ring bell as one security measure. >> reporter: so a security system for the house? >> right. and then i go to the different areas. >> reporter: wow. you can see everything.

every family has a morning routine but on the south side of chicago, kristen robinson's looks a bit different. she checks security cameras but exiting her house, all five. and then -- >> off to school. i walk really fast. i want to get everybody in so i don't take time. i don't know who may be in the alley. i have to keep the doors locked. i'm honking. from that point i speed through the alley. >> it's a reality she says weighs on her family's mental health. but it's all in an effort to protect her children from pervasive gun violence. >> we live in chicago but we live in a war zone. >> do you like living around here? no. >> it's not safe. there's too many shootings. >> reporter: while shootings are down 18% compared to last year, 1,371 incidents this year as of

july 10th. >> over 50% of the non-fatal shootings and homicides that have occurred over the past several years only occur on 5% of the blocks. >> reporter: tamara hall is the chief officer for mayor lori lightfoot, community coordination center, for less than a year. >> one of the mothers i spoke with talked about her home as being chairaq. do you believe some of the residents feel like they're in a war zone? >> i wouldn't use a term like that but i think it's reflective of how residents feel. >> and this is how christianne feels, her purse and wallet stolen. do you worry about ptsd?

>> yeah. i have to basically keep putting a brave face. >> reporter: she is not alone in braving the violence. an experts like alexa james, say the stress compounds particularly in communities of color. >> systemic racism is a traumatic event. so we're just starting as a deficit and pouring more and more trauma unnecessarily into communities. >> they acknowledge historic divestment in chicago contributes to today's violence. they're working with multiple public health agencies to campaign against gun violence and expanding access to youth higher education and employment opportunity. >> the community is down 50% in shootings as compared to 2021. >> reporter: still, for some residents like christianne, the

response is too little too late. >> i'd rather be where the resources are. >> reporter: though there are schools on the south side, she says it's still not safe and she drives an hour, morning and night, doing her safety routine every time. i got stressed. >> what we need to do is a better job of asking people in those communities what they need. when asked about her hopes and her needs for her family, she dreams of safety. >> i would create an island on lake michigan and create a skyline and being away from all the violence happening. >> reporter: in your dream, there's still gun violence happening? >> it's not going to go away.
